Hey, everybody. I had a great discussion with the legendary Megyn Kelly on her podcast. Make sure you check out her podcast and subscribe to The Megyn Kelly Show about what happened over the Potomac DEI affirmative action, the FAA, Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, and more. It's a little snippet. You can listen to the entire conversation on The Megyn Kelly Podcast.

The childhood vaccination schedule has become insane. I can say this as a father of two kids. The rapidity and also what they are vaccinating for are things that I think... A, are not necessary to be inoculated against always. I mean, chickenpox is debatable. I had chickenpox growing up. I can understand the argument both ways. But what is the safety and the efficacy of these vaccines?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Is it necessary? Do you have to go through the entire schedule? Are there any side effects? And it almost gets to this place where it's like we shall never question vaccines. They're nothing but great. Megan, I'm sure you know people that have been vaccine-injured. And it's a very serious thing. And they are treated as if they are like modern day cultural lepers.

They're not allowed to be talked to. You're not allowed to be considered. And the COVID vaccine in particular, we had Nancy Mace who came out and said that she's had health problems that have never changed since she got the COVID vaccine. And we were told that it was safe and effective. And yet then we look at all these studies that they reference and
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
It turns out that there's a lot of corruption in the medical and scientific literature. A lot of these pharmaceutical companies are funding these studies. Again, all of us are pro-vaccine. We want vaccines to be safe and effective, obviously. But I'm also a free thinker, and I'm not just going to carry the water for people that have done nothing to earn our trust.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin

And so I hope we can win over Senator Cassidy. I find his comments to just be laughable in some ways because anyone knows that, okay, The hepatitis B vaccine in particular, yes, if a mom has hepatitis B, which we test for, then give the kid the vaccine.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
But within minutes of a child's birth, you're trying to tell me that there's no side effect for pumping them with a hepatitis B vaccine, which is completely unnecessary, I think is wrong. I think it's one of the reasons why we need Bobby Kennedy so badly. So I certainly hope he'll end up voting for RFK.

I have two questions for you. Are you unknowingly missing out on God's blessing by not aligning your investments with biblical principles? Would you like your hard-earned retirement dollars to support Israel, God's land and chosen people? Most people don't realize the spiritual and financial benefits of investing in Israel because they lack the knowledge to do so effectively.

Don't let your investments become disconnected from your faith and values. Diversify those dollars into Israeli shekels to fulfill your biblical mandate and partner with Israel's future. To top it off, Israel has one of the fastest-growing, innovative, and resilient economies in the world. Download The Believer's Ultimate Guide to Investing in Israel for free at wisemoneyisrael.com.

So there are 18 months olds that are getting the COVID vaccine. Like, yeah, that's never going to happen. We're not we're not doing mRNA gene altering technology. But what is the risk if my kid gets COVID?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Incredibly low, like remarkably low for infants and for kids that get COVID. So there's a lot to unpack there. But I think also. Shouldn't the broader question be, okay, vaccines causing autism, whatever, fine, not going to get into that. But what does cause autism then? Why is it 1 in 30? Can we have a discussion of that? Are there other environmental pollutants?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Are there other neurotoxins that we haven't addressed? Is it our diet? Is it radioactivity? I don't know, but something is causing it. Something is causing this massive spike, and yet Bobby is the criminal for noticing. You see, Bobby is the enemy for noticing. And the old expression goes, to find out who controls you, find out what you can't criticize.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
And we cannot criticize our public health authorities. And the media is so in bed with it for a very simple reason, which I hope the president and Bobby Kennedy get rid of, is you're allowed to advertise on these networks so shamelessly that they have bought the entire media industrial complex. I was laughing.

watching the Bills Chiefs game and I was watching a football game doing work and all of a sudden the most ridiculous commercial ever pops up where it's like some guy running through a meadow and they list all the side effects of these drugs might cause sudden death and might cause all these different things. And I said to myself, there's no way that this ad is persuasive.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
There's no way that there's some guy in Buffalo, New York watching the Bills game being like, you know what? Now I need to go buy that drug. No, it's part of a broader strategy, which, by the way, pharmaceutical advertisements is actually the lowest cost per dollar return of anything.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
No, it's part of a broader strategy where they're trying to win the goodwill and control these media companies so they get favorable coverage. Yes, that's what it's all about. It's not about promoting their drug. No one cares about it. These are awfully produced commercials. They don't put any energy into it, right?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin

They go through whatever DEI thing of some, you know, black dad playing baseball with his kid in the yard. Like, okay, whatever. fine, whatever. It's like nothing against that. And then they say, OK, here is it, Jardians or whatever, you know, get this drug, ask your doctor about it. OK, no one actually ends up doing it.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin

Instead, what it does is it gives them air cover against any of the journalist class and any of the people making the decisions at these media companies that could potentially investigate them or yes, or give them a scintilla of negative coverage.

that monetize the sickness of the country every day. And we are the sickest we've ever been. We are the least healthy we've ever been as a country. So think about it. We're the most technologically advanced. We have the most breakthroughs. We have AI doing half of our work for us right now. Stock market at record highs, yet we're the sickest we've ever been. So how does that exactly work?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
We're the most overweight, the most alcohol addicted, the most drug addicted, the most suicidal, the most anxious, the most depressed that we've ever been. And so something is fundamentally wrong. And of course, you've heard this before. We have a sick care system, not a health care system. And these major conglomerates have no interest in actually having a healthy population.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
In fact, a healthy population is a threat to the bottom line of Eli Lilly. A healthy population is a threat to the bottom line of Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson. A healthy population means that you don't have to have 13-year-olds. Get on Ozembic.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
As we are having this chat right now, there is a simultaneous congressional debate to put Ozembic on the Medicaid schedule so that teenagers, instead of healthy lifestyle or eating better, can do an injection every week, pill for every ill, and that will solve obesity. And if you look carefully on cable news, because I know all the interest groups behind it, they're running very persuasive ads.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
They say obesity is killing Americans. Call your senator to say that our government should stand up against obesity. You know, so what they're saying is they're framing obesity as this big problem. Call this number to support this bill. They don't tell you what's in the bill.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
The bill is to put Ozembic on the Medicaid schedule, which would then have kids across the country not pursue healthier lifestyles, but instead have to do an injection for the rest of their life, which has all of these terrible side effects.

Oh, and you have gallbladder issues and kidney stones and digestive problems and only also, by the way, supports and reinforces all of your other unhealthy habits, right? Eating, exercise. They are now looking at obesity as a permanent genetic condition, not lifestyle choices. They're saying that, well, it's just the way that you were born and there's nothing that you can do.

So a couple of thoughts on this. I will defend Susan Collins. She represents a very, very difficult state. She's almost always there when we need her. And that's an important thing. And so I think she's getting the call of like, hey, we might need you for this one. Understand we did not need her for Hegseth. And so, I mean, of course, we got to a tie. We had J.D. Vance break the tie.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Pete Hegseth is now the secretary of defense and she represents a goofy state. For some of these other senators that represent deep red states, there is no excuse and there is no place to hide. But let's understand what she's actually trying to become or what she's applying for. The director of national intelligence. This is a relatively new role. It hasn't been around for very long.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
It was created post 9-11 to actually be the connective tissue between all of the intelligence agencies. It actually is above the Central Intelligence Agency, above the CIA. It has power that has not really been exercised for quite some time. DNI is the custodian of the nation's secrets. It is the keeper of secrets.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
from all the things that our government is doing that they don't want us to always know what they're doing.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
And the most pressing, of course, that matters to those of us that are Trump supporters is, is there another soft coup being run through five eyes to try to thwart a sitting president of the United States, like what happened during the first administration during Russiagate with Christopher Steele and the dirty dossier to spy on President Trump to try to go after him?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
And using the FBI and using secret skips and using outside firms like Fusion GPS is something like that happening again. And the director of national intelligence will be able to tell you yes or no and stop it if it's actually happening in real time. Tulsi Gabbard is an extraordinary person. Her vet file came back like clean, clean, clean. She actively has a top level security clearance, a TSSCI.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
She serves in the military. She was a former Democrat, which makes this even more interesting because she has been so focused on trying to reorient America. American foreign policy to a America-first standpoint, not one of neo-globalist, internationalist wars and nation-building at every single corner and every turn. Now, why is it that her confirmation is the hardest of all of them?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Well, because the intel agencies are so resistant to any change, and a lot of these senators, to be perfectly honest, have been fed BS by these intel agencies for so long and acting as if that they've done nothing wrong and we can't reform them and it's jeopardizing national security. Well, on the other side of it, how much damage has our intel agencies done?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
We invaded Iraq wrongly, by the way, because of faulty intelligence on weapons of mass destruction. We got involved in Libya, something we never should have gotten involved in, which turned into the Libyan civil war because we were told Muammar Gaddafi is like the worst person on the planet.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Or how about all the faulty intelligence in the Russian-Ukrainian war or the faulty intelligence that we've seen all across the Middle East and Syria or in parts of Lebanon? What Tulsi Gabbard wants to do is restore the integrity of the nation's intelligence service. Now, there's some interesting elements in here, and I've been really hammering this unsuccessfully, by the way.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
I think it's outrageous that they're not doing this vote in public. It is the only agency official where I think the CIA maybe, but that one wasn't as controversial, where they go into a SCIF, a secure compartmentalized information facility, and they do this vote outside of the public eye. And I think that's outrageous.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
I think when you're trying to elect somebody who's a lifelong transparency advocate and you're going to go into a secret facility and we can't see how the actual members vote, I find that to be repulsive. I think people should be incensed about that. I think that our elected officials should not operate in the shadows, that they should tell you how they vote.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
And so just to reiterate, when they actually end up voting for Tulsi Gabbard, This will not be like how they vote for Bobby Kennedy, where they sit out and they say, I, I, nay, I, okay, the I's have it, goes out of committee.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
They go into a secret room where no cell phones, no staff, only members are allowed in a secure compartmentalized information facility, and they'll say, well, what do we think about Tulsi? And they'll take the vote, and they could decide to make the results public, or they could lie about the results, or they could do vote trading, right?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
I mean, I think the front page of a certain newspaper says democracy dies in darkness. Hey, Washington Post, any interest in this one where our elected senators are going into a skiff to go determine the future of who is the custodian of our nation's secrets? If that is not darkness, what is darkness? Because we don't know how Mike Rounds is going to vote or Todd Young. Please. Yes.

So we have we have to keep the one element of hope is that the chairman of the Senate Intel Committee is Tom Cotton. He has voice support, and he went on Sean Hannity's program, and he said that he thinks Tulsi's going to get confirmed. So here is my hope.

My hope is that senators who really don't like Tulsi are going to go in this skiff, and they're going to feel all the public pressure, and they'll say, guys, let's just vote to put her on the floor. Now, understand, you can vote for her in committee and then vote against her in the floor, which is probably the deal that they're brokering with Susan Collins, to be perfectly honest, right?
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
That they say, hey, just get her out of committee. Now, once it's on the floor, there is no skiff. There's no hiding. That is in public. My hope is that the senators will talk a really, really good game. But when that roll call actually starts to come, that they might falter. So we have a 53 Senate majority, which so you kind of go with this.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
OK, McConnell is probably a no because he's just the worst. Let's just say that John Curtis from Utah is a no. That gets us down to 51, so you could lose one more. Will Susan Collins come through for us in the end? Will Murkowski come through for us? How will Lankford vote? How will Todd Young vote? We don't know, but this is... Yeah, Cornyn. I think Cornyn will end up voting for her.
Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin
The Seven Trust Languages for a Better Workplace with Minda Harts
Look, if Cornyn does not vote for her, he is done in tight... No, he is done in Texas, by the way, if he does not vote for Bobby Kennedy. And that's not a veiled threat. I can tell right now there's very well-funded opposition that is being mounted. He's in a deep red state. He's already in a lot of ways deeply unpopular.

We've said at Turning Point Action that if you oppose President Trump's nominees and you are from one of these red states, we are going to fund a primary challenge against you.

situation in december and obviously helped contribute to the reversal and the pivot from that i mean pete hegseth went down from like a one to two percent chance of becoming secretary defense to now just doing an extraordinary job so i i don't want to say okay what is the percentage chance of tulsi advancing if she gets out of committee her chances will improve dramatically her fight is in the committee which of course happens in the shadows and in the darkness

But this Bill Cassidy is being so stupid. We test for hepatitis B in utero. So we know if the mom has hepatitis B. That's how we're talking about.

A lot of progress is made on that one. But but this is a deeper question. Can we even criticize the child vaccination schedule at all? Like you're trying to tell me I have to give my eight month son the covid vaccine. Why prove it to me? No, I'm not doing that. So Senator Cassidy should really I mean, again, I hope he comes and votes for Bobby Kennedy. But he should be challenged as well.

The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Senator Wyden is one of the worst. He is a perfect example of a pharma shill. And to be perfectly honest, he's also putting words into Bobby's mouth. mouth. Bobby has never said he's pro-vaccine. He's just said he's not anti-vaccine, and he is in favor of, of course, some vaccines, but it's actually not the core issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
The core issue is he wants to make vaccines better and safer and more effective. Blake is going to correct me here, but... Isn't the old Voltaire quote, to find out who's in charge, find out who you can't criticize, to find out who controls you, find out what you can't criticize, is that Voltaire or is that wrongly attributed to him? I bet it's wrongly attributed to him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
But that is a perfect example. Oh, it was by a neo-Nazi falsely attributed to Voltaire. Thanks, Blake. Always uplifting. That's an uplifting fact check. I disavow. That's still a good line, but I disavow, obviously, the neo-Nazi part. But you can't criticize vaccines.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
And again, I'm not that interested in the topic, except for the fact that why is it that it's the one thing that you require everybody in the population to have? And obviously there are side effects for some people, not for all people, not even for a lot of people, but a small amount of people. Why is it that we can't ask questions about making them safer? And the media, this is so dishonest.

But we've actually never seen the smoking gun where journalists just write the headline first and then they fill in the rest.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Bobby Kennedy is pro-truth. Wherever the truth will lead him is where he will go. If vaccines are super safe, then why does Big Pharma need liability protection from the government? You're not even allowed to ask these very simple questions. Bobby Kennedy is trying to bring a wrecking ball to the health and human service. It'd be one thing if everyone was super fit in our country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
It's one thing if everybody was happy and full of joy. No, but we are a diseased country. We are the sickest we have ever been in our country's history. We're the fattest. We're the sloppiest. And Bobby Kennedy wants to go about fixing that. And one of the things that I really appreciate about Bobby Kennedy, it's a very empowering message.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
He fundamentally believes that every single person has it within your own free will and your capacity and your agency to be healthier. That you have the capacity to lose weight, to eat better, And what is wrong about trying to search for the truth? It is verboten in the clearest possible way. It is forbidden across the board.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
And during COVID, did we not learn how corrupt and feckless our public health authorities are? And Bobby Kennedy is a response to that. COVID was a massive wake-up call. And let's not lose the lead here. As you're watching Bobby Kennedy get grilled by senators right now, that is Bobby Kennedy's son. That is JFK's nephew. I want you to think about that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
That is the ruling class of the Democrat Party that is now back to grill the Democrat Party that they no longer care about health. And when have they ever, and by the way, the left always likes to make it seem as if they're the small guy fighting up against the system, that they're fighting against the establishment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Bobby Kennedy is picking the largest and biggest possible fight, which is against entrenched pharmaceutical companies, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, the massive gargantuan vaccine manufacturers. Hundreds of billions of dollars are on the line. And health jeopardizes their profits. The healthier America becomes, the less money they could potentially make.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
If we no longer have the belief system that you need a pill for every ill, then what's going to happen to Pfizer stock? The old joke goes, I've been on antidepressants for 20 years. When are they going to start kicking in? At what point do we ask the question that maybe this medication that these doctors are unnecessarily feeding us, a vast majority of it is completely unnecessary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Where there might be naturopathic and alternative means. The CEOs of these big pharma companies have fiduciary responsibilities to their stockholders to earn profits. Their mission is not to help to make Americans healthy. Their goal is to print and make money. So when Bobby Kennedy says make America healthy, right now at Pfizer, they want you sick.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Yeah. And so I think the core issue here is Bobby Kennedy has been a lifelong public health advocate. He's been a lifelong advocate for moms and against environmental toxins. What is it especially who is against him most forcefully and why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
And to be perfectly honest, I have yet to see a free market zealot. I would love to be able to grill a libertarian or Milton Friedman if he was alive on this topic. Because it really is a contradiction. If you have companies that they actually make more money over time, the sicker you are, how does that reconcile with free market forces? It's a very difficult question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
There is not an easy solution to that, by the way. There is not an easy solution. Because the old adage is, oh, well, you imagine how much money people would make if there was a cure to cancer. Imagine if there was a way to not heal it, but keep you coming back for the next 10 years on your cancer. well then you become a nice little check for Big Pharma for the remainder of your life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
And this all ties in with the trans-executive order. Healthy workers and healthy people are a threat to this entire empire. The Democrats are being incredibly combative to Bobby Kennedy. Remarkably so. Because they know what Bobby Kennedy represents. There's trillions of dollars of industry that want to stop Bobby Kennedy.

Because God forbid your four-year-old stops eating high fructose corn syrup. and doesn't get every single vaccine, every single one, and goes outside a little bit more and starts supplementing with vitamin D, no, that is a threat to what they want.

A sick and diseased population is one that is more malleable, one that is in the palm of their hands. A sick and diseased population is one that makes them infinitely more profitable.

To get back to the promise of our founders, we've said for a while, strong alpha men are a threat to tyranny. But overweight men with beer bellies are not a threat to anybody.

It was an NIH study. Man, they are going straight into the bottom of the barrel. And by the way, COVID did affect different people differently. That is science.

I'm not going to win you over on that. But do you really think the state of... American public health is in a good position? Do you think the state of American public health is strong? We are one of the fattest countries. Blake can get it. I wrote about this in the book, and Blake helped me with the research and helped me put all the thoughts together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
We're one of the fattest countries in the world. That alone should be a wake-up call. And the answer is not Nova North Ozembic. The answer is diet, movement, lifestyle, choice, agency. We want to make America lean again. We have a 41% obesity rate in this country. And I know a lot of you in the audience say, oh, it's not my fault. I'm not getting into that. The point is, let's fix it together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Let's fix it together. Bobby Kennedy continues in his testimony here. Let's play cut 148.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
We need healthy youth for our military. We need healthy youth for our country, for the vitality of our nation. We are in a circumstance right now where the major ag companies, the major pharmaceutical companies want you overweight. I'm not going to get into this topic. It's too controversial. Is obesity a choice or not? I think lifestyle plays a big role into it. I really do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
But I also believe that people are being actively poisoned. It goes back to a theme that we say many times on this program, which is coibona. It is the Latin phrase, coibona. Who benefits? Who benefits if Bobby Kennedy is defeated and people remain fat and sloppy and unhealthy? Coibona. Who benefits if Bobby Kennedy wins?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
I can tell you, if Bobby Kennedy wins and becomes secretary, which we're going to make sure happens, kids win, moms win, families win. Who benefits if Bobby Kennedy is derailed? There'll be more unnecessary vaccines pushed on kids like the hepatitis B vaccine at birth. Again, I'm not going to weigh in on all the vaccines, but come on. Some of the stuff on the schedule should not be there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
The children should not get the COVID vaccine. I think that's insane to give an 18-month-old the COVID vaccine. Sorry, I'm going to speak out against that one. That one's insane to me. It's insane. Babies getting the COVID vaccine. I'm not talking about polio. I'm not talking about measles, mumps, rubella. I'm not talking about Tdap. I'm not talking about any of this stuff. COVID vaccine.

Bobby Kennedy throws down the gauntlet on the Democrats. Let's play Caught 149.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
We need a full disruption of health care because we need health care, not sick care. More personalized individual treatment. If somebody's experiencing issues, typically it's because of metabolic dysfunction that happened decades prior. We need to get to root causes and uproot the entire food pyramid. We want Americans to thrive.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
And I think what's exciting about Bobby Kennedy is you don't have to agree with everything he says. Blake doesn't agree with everything he says. That's fine. But we're willing to have a robust conversation on why are we overweight? What can we do differently? The biggest reason Americans don't thrive is not a lack of money. It's not even being unable to buy a house.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
By far the biggest source of our misery is how unhealthy we are. The lack of health in this country is actually the root cause beyond all root causes. And let's open this up and every good, wacky, creative, crazy idea, we need to have it out. What I know though is the most high functioning people in my life that I see are people that largely don't drink a lot of alcohol.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
They're people that don't do drugs. They're people that take exercise seriously. They take sunlight exposure seriously. And some of the most unhappy people and slovenly people are people that don't take that stuff seriously. But more than all of that, we need medical institutions and we need institutions in general that promote the public health, not public misery, not public obesity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
We should trust our medical institutions. And we know the CDC is captured. We know the FDA is captured. We know all these major institutions are captured. And Bobby Kennedy is going to go in there and disrupt it for your kids, for your grandkids. I could not be more behind Bobby Kennedy's ascension to HHS secretary. I believe fundamentally in the Maha movement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown

Yeah, I mean, look, a healthy population is the kiss of death for big pharma. Talk about how if we actually get to root causes, if we get down to the root issue, then we don't need Ozembic for obesity for kids. We don't need these other interventions down the road.

The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Do you think our public health authorities won our trust during COVID? Bobby Kennedy authored one of the sharpest critiques ever. Out there. Of Anthony Fauci. Bobby Kennedy was right all along during the COVID debacle. We never should have locked down, as we said on this program. The vaccine was a joke and a disaster. The mRNA gene-altering vaccine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
We never should have suppressed early treatments. And because of all of that, look at the sequencing. We got lockdowns, which resulted in an even further diseased population. We then got mail-in ballots, and they displaced Trump from power.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Now, I actually believe that God works all things out for good for those who love him, Romans 8.28, that us being displaced from power actually ended up being a very positive thing. Bobby Kennedy never would be close to becoming the Health and Human Services Secretary. Would never even get close if President Trump would not have been displaced from power.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Bobby Kennedy made a serious political investment, a serious investment into the grassroots to help form the Uniparty, to help form this grassroots movement of moms and health-focused advocates and activists.

"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
Bobby Kennedy endorsing Donald Trump happened at our Turning Point event in Glendale, Arizona. Bobby Kennedy says clearly here in his hearing, worth repeating, play cut 138. He is not anti-vax, but in his advocacy, he's asked the uncomfortable questions. Play cut 138. And I believe that...

Now, understand, if you question the efficacy or the safety of vaccines, they call you anti-vax. Of course, vaccines can be a scientific miraculous breakthrough. Are they necessary for everything that we are vaccinated against? Is a hepatitis B vaccine really necessary for every newborn child? Is that really necessary? Do we really need to inoculate against chicken pox?

The schedule has ramped up so dramatically since 1991. And if you even dare to say that, yes, there very well might be side effects, which, by the way, the labels themselves say. Every doctor will quietly say, of course there are side effects, potentially. But we can't say that or else you're called anti-vaccine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
It is a modern secular religion believing that vaccines are completely unchallengeable. And do you know that vaccines are one of the few things that we have where if something goes wrong, you're not able to sue the manufacturer? So if a car explodes and kills your kid, you should be able to sue the car manufacturer to make sure the car is safe for a future user and be able to get damages.

If a vaccine gives your kid some sort of neurodivergent neurological disorder, potentially, you go to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, VAERS, and good luck. The entire incentive structure right now is trying to keep people permanently sick. Trying to keep people permanently in a state where they can be controlled. where they are annuities for big pharma.

We have an obesity problem with our kids. Half of our children by age 15 are overweight or obese. Only 3% of Japanese kids are overweight or obese.

And this becomes a national security threat, becomes a national morale threat. Kids are more likely than to commit suicide, more likely to get on psychoactive drugs, more likely to be addicted to alcohol, less likely to be vibrant and active members of their community and society.

The 1776 Commission was originally chartered, as you can see in that photograph, as a counter to the cancer of critical race theory, to the growing curriculum issue of teaching our kids to hate the country, hate their history, and hate themselves.

The trans movement took advantage of the good-heartedness of America. And things started to change.

President Donald Trump also plans that he to sign an executive order fulfilling a campaign pledge. Promises made, promises kept, saying...

They go after butchering the body, and it goes towards a more fundamental executive order that President Trump signed early on. That God created male and female. There is not a third category.

So, Dr. Phil, one of the pieces of tape that went really viral is when you had the dialogue with a young man who was convicted of a heinous sexual crime against a child.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
This is an ongoing story and it gets more and more suspicious and urgent the deeper we dive into it. We have new signal text messages from The Atlantic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Yeah, I tend to agree with that. I do think, though, that privately there needs to be some understanding of how he ended up in this group chat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
And, of course, the big story is how did the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic magazine, the anti-Trump, hoax-peddling Atlantic magazine, how did he end up in a very private discussion with the Secretary of Defense, with the Director of National Intelligence? How did that happen? Well, first, I want to read all the new text messages that we have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
So the I completely agree. And this is probably the first hiccup or glitch of what has been a flawless two months. Speak about that, because the president is best on offense, not taking the terms of the media.

And there is widespread popular support. I want to play a piece of tape here. We played this prior in the week of Ezra Klein sitting down with David Shore from The New York Times. Ezra Klein is like the chief explainer of data for the left, the smart guy, but terribly wrong on the issues.

13.45, trigger-based F-18 first strike window starts. Target terrorist is at his known location, so should be on time. Also, strike drones launch. Now, let me just pause. I'm going to say the obvious, that Jeffrey Goldberg being involved in this group chat, seeing this, had a little bit of a heads up that a military strike was going to happen.

Well, thank you. I deeply appreciate that, and we appreciate it. And that is the most important thing we're focusing on, is the cultural fight. We've seen a movement with young people, and if we can give some permanency to that, boy, things are not going to be very hopeful for the Democrat Party. It would change everything. That's right. It would change it fundamentally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
That's right. So, Mr. Speaker, I don't have the tape handy, but I will do my best to paraphrase it. President Trump actually won immigrants. That's right. Immigrant voters in the battleground states, something that completely blows the mind of Democrat strategists.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
How do you explain that, that Donald Trump, who's been positioned as anti-immigrant and xenophobic and all that, won the immigrant vote in the seven battleground states, Mr. Speaker?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
That it could have been somebody that would have live tweeted and potentially thwarted a military operation. Thankfully, that did not happen. 1410, more F-18s launch, second strike package. 1415, strike drones on target.

The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Michael Waltz writes in the group chat, he continues... Team, you should have a statement of conclusions with taskings per the president's guidance this morning in your high side inboxes. State and DOD, we developed suggested notification lists for regional allies and partners.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Joint staff is sending this AM a more specific sequence of events in the coming days, and we will work with DOD to ensure chief of staff, the office of the vice president, and POTUS are briefed. J.D. Vance responds here. Team, I am out for the day doing an economic event in Michigan, but I think we are making a mistake. 3% of U.S. trade runs to the Suez. 40% of the European trade does.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
This is a real risk that the public doesn't understand this or why it's necessary. The strongest reason to do this, as POTUS said, is to send a message. But I'm not sure the president is aware how inconsistent this is with the message on Europe right now. There's a further risk that we see a moderate to severe spike in oil prices.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
I'm willing to support the consensus of the team and keep these concerns to myself. But there's a strong argument for delaying this a month, doing the messaging work on why this matters, seeing where the economy is, etc. Pete Hegseth responds, but we can easily pause, and if we do, I will do all we can to enforce 100% OPSEC, operational security. I welcome other thoughts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Michael Waltz responds to J.D. Vance and says, the trade figures we have are 15% of global and 30% of container. It's difficult to break down to the United States specifically. Because much of the container either going to the Red Sea still or around the Cape of Good Hope are components going to Europe that turns into manufactured goods for transatlantic trade to the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Whether we pull the plug or not today, European navies do not have the capacity capability to defend against the types of sophisticated anti-ship cruise missiles and drones the Houthis are now using. So whether it's now or several weeks from now, it'll have to be the United States that reopens these shipping lanes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Per the president's request, we are working with DOD and state to determine how to compile the costs associated and levy them on the Europeans. Michael Waltz then added Stephen Miller to the chat. Very important. We only have evidence of Michael Waltz adding people to the chat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
As we stated in the first PC, we have a fundamental decision of allowing the sea lanes to remain closed or to reopen them now or later. We are the only ones with capability, unfortunately. From a messaging standpoint, we absolutely add this to the horribles on why the Europeans must invest in their own defense. The last of the chat that we have, from the Atlantic continues from Joe Kent.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
There's nothing time sensitive driving this timeline. We'll have the exact same options in a month. The Israelis will likely take strikes and therefore ask us for more support to replenish whatever they use against the Houthis. But that's a minor factor. I will send you the unclassified data we pulled on BAM shipping. John Ratcliffe then chimes in from the CIA perspective.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
We are mobilizing assets to support now, but a delay would not negatively impact us or additional time would be used to identify better starting points for coverage on Houthi's leadership. Pete Hegseth says, quote, Vice President J.D., I understand your concerns and fully support you raising with POTUS important considerations, most of which are tough to know how they play out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Economy, Ukraine, peace, Gaza, etc. I think messaging is going to be tough no matter what, no matter who knows. Nobody knows who the Houthis are, which is why we would need to stay focused on Biden failed and Iran funded. Waiting a few weeks or a month does not fundamentally change the calculus to immediate risks on waiting one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
This leaks and we look indecisive to Israel takes action first or Gaza ceasefire falls apart and we don't get to start this on our own terms. We can manage both. We are prepared to execute. And if I had a final go or no go vote, I believe we should. This is not about the hooties.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
I see it as two things, restoring freedom of navigation, a core national interest and reestablishing deterrence, which Biden cratered. OK, that is the latest messages out of the Atlantic. The Atlantic never should have had eyes on this. And we are still trying to figure out exactly how on earth this occurred. And I want to reiterate what I said yesterday on the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Behind the curtain, we see a robust open debate. We see that J.D. Vance is actually America first behind closed doors as he is in public. That is refreshing. That is authentic. That is a good thing to see. But it does leave us with a more fundamental question. How did this happen? Now this is the number one news story in the country. The Democrats are pouncing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
They're doing everything they possibly can. And it could have been a heck of a lot worse. This could have been really, really bad. How did Jeffrey Goldberg get added to a private government Signal chat? Well, here is what we know. We know that Mike Waltz was the admin of the group chat. Now, for example, I text a lot of people on Signal. I use Signal a lot.

Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.

The thing about Signal is that when you text somebody, so for example, let's just say my wife. If I were to put E into my Signal group or Signal new message, she is the first contact. Why? Because I message her a lot on Signal. For example, if I want to message another one of my friends that I message on Signal, let's say Mike Davis, who I message a lot on Signal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Mike Davis comes up as the first contact. Meaning, when you type in a letter, whether it be J for Jeffrey Goldberg, you had to have had established contact with that person in order for that contact to come up first. In order for this to have been a mistake that Mike Waltz made, he would have to have a lot of contact with Jeffrey Goldberg.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Enough so much that it populated as the first contact to be added on Signal. And Mike Waltz is the admin of this chat. We're going to play a piece of tape, though, because either Mike Waltz is completely lying or Signal is compromised. Those are the only two options. Either Mike Waltz, he denies knowing him, says I never talked to him, or Signal is compromised by the Central Intelligence Agency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
And of all people, they gave the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic access. Those are the only two options available. If you have private student loan debt, listen carefully. Private student loan debt in the U.S. totals about $300 billion. They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. May not be available in all 50 states. Do you have a co-borrower?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Why refi can get them released from the loan? You can give mom or dad a break. You don't have to ignore the mountain of student loan statements on your kitchen table anymore. Go to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com. Many clients aren't even able to make the minimum monthly payment on their private student loans when they first contact YRefi.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
When the payment on your distressed or defaulted private student loans is so big that you can't ever get ahead in your finances, YRefi is surely your best option. Go to YRefi.com. You can even skip a payment and every six months to 12 times a year. So go to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com. May not be available in all 50 states. They are great supporters of our program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Phenomenal, phenomenal patriots. So go to YRefi.com. Bad credit is accepted. If you have private student loan debt or know somebody that does, go to YRefi.com. Great people. So yesterday, Mike Waltz then went on Laura Ingram and he is flat out denying knowing Jeffrey Goldberg, adding Jeffrey Goldberg, saying a staffer didn't add it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
So if Mike Waltz is to be believed, which is obviously conceivable. Then. Signal has been compromised. Again, I think that's an unlikely scenario, but it's possible. I mean, it was loaded on government devices. There has been chatter for years in the Intel community. There's been long rumor that Signal has to have intelligent links to the CIA and so on. Every tech has a backdoor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Again, we are in a binary. Either Signal has been compromised by the CIA, which is totally possible, or Mike Waltz's line. These are tough clips to watch. These are flat-out denials. This makes it a bigger story. Now, it is possible. I give this a low probability. It is possible that we could be looking at a Russiagate 2.0. It's very possible. I still give that a low probability.

But we could be seeing a serious intel scandal here. And you think about it. Trump has had a good couple months. They're trying to slow down the administration. What is a perfect way to find yourself to be able to view war plans? Well, a group chat. You don't recognize every number. How did you get added? But there's still a lot that doesn't make sense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Why would you then add the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic? On the other side, he is kind of an intel guy. He's a super neocon. I'm still going with the more plausible explanation. What is that? Occam's Razor, where the more boring explanation is almost always correct. That's Occam's Razor. I tend to yield towards that, which is that somebody added him that did not mean to add him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
And the admin of the chat was Mike Waltz. Let's go through these pieces of tape. This is 228. Mike Waltz saying, never met Goldberg, couldn't pick him out of a police lineup. That's quite a statement. Play cut 228.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
Why would I? So this doesn't need to be done publicly, but this is very simple. The president or anybody in the president's team should say, OK, Mike, give me your phone. Right now, give me your device. You could solve this whole thing in like 20 seconds. Give me your device. Go to Signal and see if Jeffrey Goldberg is a contact. It's so simple.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
If Jeffrey Goldberg is not a contact, Mike Waltz could have deleted it, but then all of a sudden you have a real issue. All of a sudden you have a deeper intel operation that's going on here. And Understand, you could then see, you could look at his call log, you could see has he called him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
If Mike Waltz doesn't have any contact with Jeffrey Goldberg in his phone, if you assume control of it, now you have potentially the intel agencies that Ratcliffe is supposed to be overseeing right now, creating a backdoor into private government communications and then giving the Atlantic that information. I still give that a very low probability. This is 229.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
the signal situation continues for those of you that have not been closely paying attention to the news over the weekend there was a military strike against the Houthis in Yemen it is part of the ongoing Yemeni civil war a Saudi proxy war President Donald Trump authorized a military strike And now we have learned more and more about the background.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
That's a flat-out denial. Again, we are living in one of two scenarios. Mike Waltz is lying, or the intel community got a backdoor into Signal. This is 230. Mike Waltz says he put the group chat together and then suggests that they are looking to see if Jeffrey Goldberg somehow hacked into his phone and replaced the contact label JG with his own number. Jeffrey Goldberg would not have done this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Signal Storm Grows Larger
This would be... An intel operation. Play cut 230. I built the group.

What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Hey, everybody, are the Democrats in a death spiral? We analyze with Ryan James Gerduski. And then Tom Holman joins the show to talk about the mass deportation effort and how the courts are trying to get in the way of the will of the American people and President Trump's agenda. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Subscribe to our podcast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Everyone knows education has the power to change a kid's life, and anyone who raised a child knows each has different needs, learning styles, and God-given talents. The fact is, parents know their own children best, knows what's best for their development and future. Education freedom legislation puts parents, not zip codes and politicians, in charge of these important family decisions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
It's why I strongly support making universal education freedom a reality for every parent in every state. To find out where your state legislature stands and to make sure your voice is heard, go to educationfreedomusa.com now, educationfreedomusa.com. Okay, everybody, joining us now is border czar himself and great American patriot Tom Homan. Tom, welcome to the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Thank you for taking the time. I know you are very busy. Give us an update, our viewers, a macro update of how border operational security is proceeding and the deportation effort. I know you guys are working very hard. Give us an update from the front lines.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
So, Ryan, you wrote extensively about this on your Substack. I want to start with 160 here, about the Democrat doom loop. Play cut 160.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
We do need more. We need to get those numbers up. So part of what the media is focusing on is this Enemies Act that has been invoked to repel Trend de Aragua in the interior of the United States. You guys have done a very good job of articulating the application of that law.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Rachel Maddow and a lot of people on the far left are trying to make a big deal saying that, well, there are non-Trende Aragua members that were caught up in the deportation effort and expelling them to El Salvador. What is the truth of the matter here, Tom?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Yeah. And so to reiterate that, what is your response to these judges? There's one judge in particular that just came out and said that these terrorists were treated worse than even the Nazis were. I mean, how dare this judge say something like that? But criticizing the administration for its treatment of these illegals, an outrageous statement. What are your thoughts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
So, Tom, to the Democrat obstructionists like the mayor of Boston and many others like Kathy Hochul, I want to play Kathy Hochul's tape and get your reaction. Let's play cut 110.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Has she been helpful, Tom, and your reaction to Governor Hochul?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Okay, so Ryan, which way do you think the Democrat Party is going to go?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
We're going to see more and more of these obstructionists like J.B. Pritzker and even Newsom and Hochul. What is the plan to to still execute the mandate the American people gave you when you have these Democrat governors getting in the way? How can we how can that best be remedied?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Tom, you had a great moment with Jonathan Karl, where he asked you during his Sunday show about due process. Play cut 116.

Well, that's an unrelated clip, but she is trying to taunt you. Let's play 133.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
And you've mentioned all that before. More broadly, Tom, what are you looking to get from congressional approval here in this reconciliation bill? What help do you need to keep on fulfilling the mission?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Tom, excellent work. Thank you. We have your back 100 percent. Make sure the mass deportation force continues. Thank you, Tom.

The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
President Trump has put a pause on all federal funding, at least tens of millions of dollars in federal funding for Planned Parenthood. Now, we should not spend any money on Planned Parenthood. They get over $700 million a year. Between 2019 and 2021, Planned Parenthood performed over 1.1 million abortions while receiving $1.7 billion in federal funding.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
This is an average of over $592 million every year. American taxpayer dollars must not be used to kill innocent, unborn babies. It's a very important thing. Regardless of your opinion on abortion, hard-earned taxpayer dollars should not be going to subsidize Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood is an extension of the Democrat Party. Planned Parenthood runs ads against Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Planned Parenthood did get out the vote against Donald Trump, and we are subsidizing that with our taxpayer dollars. By the way, we also are great partners with Preborn, which I am a donor to, which is a pro-life alternative to Planned Parenthood. So Planned Parenthood would say, oh, you know, we do mammograms and all this other stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Well, if that's the case, then why can't we send all that money to pro-life clinics that do mammograms and they do ultrasounds that are not like a hub and spoke that comes out of the DNC hub? Why is it that we have to have $700 million funding our political opposition? Outside of the moral issue that I have of funding abortion, that's not actually the most interesting part of this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
More interesting part is why is it that U.S. taxpayers have to basically fund a Democrat super PAC? Planned Parenthood ran advertisements all across the country supporting Kamala Harris. They only support Democrats. It's a major issue. And praise God for the courage of the Trump administration to stand up against Planned Parenthood.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Planned Parenthood likes to say that abortions are only 3% of the services they offer. But money is fungible. In theory, imagine if pro-life pregnancy crisis centers received $700 million a year. That would be only fair, right? But of course not. We are propping up a Democrat machine is what we are doing. And that money should be completely and totally cut.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
By the way, it is against federal law, just so we are clear. You are not allowed to use taxpayer dollars towards abortion. They do it anyway because they say, oh, it covers our overhead. It helps cover some of our costs. If this is so important to liberals, then go privately funded 100%. Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action don't get any federal funding.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
It's very important to conservatives, so we have to go raise our own money. You know, we are becoming one. This is a very interesting point. Do you know that at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action, we are becoming one of the biggest privately funded nonprofits in the country? We're already in like the top one of 1%.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
But we are in the top probably 100 of the biggest privately funded nonprofits in the country. Hillsdale College, I think, is the biggest. Cut the funding of Planned Parenthood. Stop funding your political opponents. It's this sort of pseudo money laundering operation where taxpayer money goes to the Democrat Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Again, if Planned Parenthood is doing such amazing work, then go raise money from all of your very loyal Democrat donors. Don't take U.S. Treasury money of $700 million a year to go do it. Defund Planned Parenthood completely. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
So speaking more broadly, what if you kind of look at the four components of the current Democrat Party, they have people that are addicted to government programs. They are just welfare queens. They don't want to work. You have government workers. So people that are paper shufflers, you have, let's say, black women or just kind of black and Hispanic, but not increasingly less Hispanic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
And then finally, crazy women. Those are basically the four components of the Democrat Party. Is that about right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Let's play some pieces of tape here. This is from the David Shore conversation. This is people trust Republicans more than Democrats on issues that matter. Play cut 102.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
That is quite a reversal in just a couple of years. Ryan, what do you attribute that to?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
So the prevailing wisdom was that if we just moderate our politics as Republicans, this is what Karl Rove would tell us. This is what Liz Cheney would tell us. This is what Adam Kinzinger would tell us. This is what a lot of the blubbery talking heads on cable TV will tell you. And they would tell it to my face.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
Well, Charlie, you know, if you want to win young people over, you have to moderate your politics. You're too extreme, Charlie. You're too outspoken. Don't talk about the war on white people. You just talk about lowering taxes for young people, and that's how you'll win them. Well, it turns out that was all a bunch of rubbish. It turns out that young people wanted a cultural force.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
They wanted a reckoning against the prevailing rot that they were seeing encompass their nation. This is the New York Times, Ezra Klein and David Shore, about how Democrats are getting destroyed with younger voters. I'll be honest, I still don't think our audience is internalizing the improbability of this. how unique this is, how much this messes up the Democrats' long-term plans.

The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
And so you do think AOC will run for the presidency?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
It's a very interesting question that by all appearances, the Democrat Party should moderate. Your point is very well taken. Depending on what state they choose first, they're going to signal the type of primary electorate they want to run towards. I suppose the question, though, is will the national base of the Democrat Party put up with a moderation campaign?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's Driving the Democrat Death Spiral?
One of the reasons why they're revolted is that a majority of the working class is white. And so definitionally, they hate that. So if you have a white working class, they hate white people. So therefore, they don't deserve any representation. We're out of time. Ryan, thanks so much. Check out his sub stack. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

There's a lot of excitement in Washington, D.C. as we start the year. But I wanted to talk to you about something just as exciting happening outside the D.C. Beltway, a revolution in the states.

Absolutely. I want to talk about California in a minute because the president is going to California, as you well know, Jack, in just a couple of days. As one of his first trips, he's going to North Carolina, then he's going to California. And I just think that's remarkable.

But Jack, just from a pastor and a theological standpoint, and Jack, you deserve such great credit for your moral clarity, your fight for liberty, and how you presented to your congregation and your millions of people in your national audience, the stakes of this election. What is your take?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
What is your message to the audience seeing this inauguration and President Trump getting back in the White House?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
So the president goes to this National Prayer Service and this unhinged lunatic, who's a bishop by the name of Marianne Edgar Buddy, is the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington. She's the first woman to hold the position. Now, my take on this is a little bit different. Some people say, how on earth was she allowed to speak? Of course, that's a good take. That's a fine take.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Jack, I believe you, and I can't wait to join you soon at your church. I think in about a month or two, we'll be there together. Jack, I want to get your reaction to this person. I don't even want to call her a bishop, this activist. Let's do it this way. This is an activist. This is I think that's the proper and appropriate term. This activist who was scolding President Trump.

This is her explanation as to why she did this. This is activist Marianne Edgar Buddy, political activist, play cut 82.

I'm actually glad she did this. It shows the bitterness, the improper behavior, the violating of customs of what the American left has actually become. The sloppy theology. Let's just play right here. I actually have not listened to it yet. Did you know that? I was so busy yesterday, I was looking at... Just the transcription. This is cut 84. It's a minute tape. National Prayer Service.

Jack, what is your, let's just say, take on the status of the American church? There are so many bold pastors like you and many others, but largely the church was not as active as they should have been to get President Trump back in the White House. Why is that? And please, Jack.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
What a great message, Jack. I totally and completely agree as we should not look at this as just a reprieve, which of course it is from the heavens, but an opportunity for a harvest, an opportunity to bring people to Jesus. Jack.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Amen. Jack Gibbs, you're a great man. I really appreciate your mentorship. I was watching you actually live here in Washington, D.C. on a local TV channel. Jack, please plug your website, Real Life with Jack Gibbs, your books, please, for our audience.

Jack, you're wonderful. Thank you so much. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. Brand new year, brand new opportunities to change the world for the better. It's easier than you might think. You can save babies by providing ultrasounds with Preborn.

President Trump is there. Won a great election. Popular vote. And he has to go get scolded. This woman is scolding the president of the United States. Play cut 84.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Together with the Sanctity of Human Life Month, we're going to save 35,000 babies to show the world that not only do we believe life is precious, but we're going to do something about it. Your gift to Preborn will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice. What better way to start this new year than to join us to save babies?
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
And we're seeing President Trump is more popular than ever. Donald Trump's approval rating breaks records as Democrats even start backing him. We're seeing ports of entry closed. Removal of pride flags. That's a big one, by the way. That is more than just a ceremonial victory. That is the removal of the pagan symbol. It was the second national flag of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
That was the American symbol worldwide. And President Trump has just completely and totally removed it. It was flying in Cuba and Korea and the Middle East. There's no place flying at any U.S. embassy or the BLM flag. This is all part of that project, the Cultural Revolution, to envelop and swallow the United States of America that we all love. But America is roaring back. We are roaring back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
And understand the profundity of what President Trump is doing. We the people don't just have a seat at the table. We own the table. President Trump signing these executive orders is on we the people's table. And the founding fathers designed this brilliant system. And President Trump is a vessel within the framework that the founders gave us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
And all it takes is the political will and the courage. And look at that. These pride flags, one after the other, they're going to be taken down. They have no place to be flown on any government institution. One of my favorite things is people that I know that are now serving in government are texting me pictures of them taking down pride stickers in cafeterias.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Did you know that there is still mask signs all throughout federal buildings? Mask optional. Beware of COVID-19. They're all getting taken down. in the Department of Justice, Department of Interior, DNI, Central Intelligence Agency, the FBI. They're all getting taken down. By the way, you know what's even more amazing? All of this is before President Trump even has his cabinet in place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
This is before President Trump even is able to get his people into positions of power. The color revolution failed. The Cultural Revolution was supposed to take over this country, but the American people roared back. They went for it. With Floydapalooza, the nation was locked down. They've been waiting for it, and they went for it. And we have roared back. And we cannot drop our guard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
And just the brilliance of President Trump's strategy, birthright citizenship, executive order on affirmative action, gone. DEI, gone. Critical race theory, gone. Pride flags, gone. Drill, baby, drill. And there's more coming. There will be more pardons. There will be more executive orders.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
There will be more straining the federal bureaucracy because President Trump every day is going to counter the Cloward-Piven strategy. And the Cloward-Piven strategy is a nonstop federal bureaucracy that is untouchable, massive machinery of federal bureaucracy that swallows the country, hyperinflation, open borders. We know their playbook, and the counter is very simple.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
You only beat evil with boldness. Let me say that again. You only beat evil with boldness. You cannot beat the sort of treachery by just, oh, you know, we're going to trim around the edges. And the bad guys almost know it. It feels as if the Democrats are pseudo surrendering. Yeah, they're filing lawsuits and all this, but where's their gusto? Where's their spark?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
And we're not going to give them a chance to kind of get back up. No, no, no. We're going to keep on going. They don't even know, they don't know which one of these things to fight. They are aimless. Do we fight against Kash Patel? Do we fight against Bobby Kennedy? Do we fight against Tulsi Gabbard? Oh my goodness, he just revoked birthright citizenship. Now affirmative action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
We have lit a hundred different bonfires against every single sacred altar of the American left. Every single one. And they can't put them all out. They can't concentrate their forces. And also their ground troops, their infantry, they're not raising money. There's no zeal. And we are taking back the cultural institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Of course, everything we're talking about is metaphorical and peaceful and lawful. And that's why this show matters so much as we help set the pace on this program. We help set the pace. Administration officials watch this feed and they help understand all the dynamics at play. It is the tip of the spear. It is the cadence of which the administration is going to operate.

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Boy, is that right? I think you're 100% correct, by the way. So, Calvin, let's just take a step back. You and I spent great time at the TPUSA Faith Believers Summit this last summer. You were so morally clear on the existential terms of President Trump's election, and you basically said it would be the suffocation of Western civilization.
The Charlie Kirk Show

If this does not, if president Trump is not successful, we have one, we've taken power. What is the significance of this?
The Charlie Kirk Show

What a beautiful statement that is, Calvin. You've been worrying, cautioning and warning about the influx of the Mohammedans to the West. What does this victory mean for the preservation of the the society that you and I love, against such forces?

The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Ross Albrecht is out of prison. January 6th, that is all handled. We still have some things to clean up on the January 6th thing. President is delivering. The president is doing more in 48 hours than most presidents would do in four years. And they know it. So President Trump had a whole schedule of events.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Spiritual Revolution in America
Calvin, you're terrific. You're welcome at all of our events. You have such a sharp way of presenting these topics and these issues and praise the Lord. God voted early on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania, and now we are fulfilling that. Let us not forget it. Let us stay humble and let us honor God in all that we do.

As it says in Deuteronomy, love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind. Thank you so much. Thank you. God bless you. We see it all the time when I visit college campuses. Young adults demonize the concept of free markets and think government is the solution to every problem. How do we change this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Hey everybody, today in the Charlie Kirk show, remarkable, massive, and dramatic action by President Trump. We are getting back the federal bureaucracy, affirmative action gone. We have Senator Mark Wayne Mullen to discuss, but I go through the latest accomplishments on just recapping day two. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Between the end of our broadcast yesterday and the beginning of this broadcast, President Trump has been rapidly at work. Yesterday, President Trump did some remarkable things, and we're going to spend some time on two of them. But let's just kind of go through the list.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Constitution, the rise and fall of the Roman Republic, or the history of the ancient Christian church with Hillsdale College's free online courses. Consider the Constitution 101 course. In it, you'll explore the design and purpose of the Constitution, the challenge it faced during the Civil War, and how it has been undermined for more than a century by progressivism and liberalism.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Senator, your reaction to the rapid pace at which this administration is moving when it comes to the invasion?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
President Trump prohibited all use of racial discrimination or DEI at federal contractors and universities receiving taxpayer dollars. President Trump ordered federal buildings worldwide to stop flying the pride flag, which the left had turned into a de facto second national flag around the world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
OK, so, Senator, here in closing, it looks as if things are trending towards one big, beautiful bill. I'm actually more on, I think, your side and the Senate side that two reconciliation bills, I think, would have been the better way of approaching it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
If it's going to be one big, beautiful bill, what is your wisdom on how we're able to get the biggest possible legislative victory for one big, beautiful bill?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
President Donald Trump launched the Stargate project yesterday, a collaboration with Silicon Valley aimed at cementing America as the global leader in emerging A.I. President Trump unleashed ICE with full authority to target the criminals Joe Biden allowed to roam freely around this country who were raping and killing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Senator, thank you for the time this morning. Excellent work as always. America is back. And thank you. Keep fighting hard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
I think that's hilarious. I wish I could have said hello at our ball. And that means a lot, Senator. Thanks so much. All right. See you, brother. All right, everybody. This is rapid action right now. The incoming right now is hard to almost even keep up with. We got affirmative action that is gone. That's so that is such an immense victory. It has been this untouchable third rail. Why? Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Because no one wanted to be called a racist. That's why. The failed cultural revolution of 2020 and 2021, where we were able to hold back just enough, revealed to the nation the disgusting lower impulses of the post-modernist, post-structuralist, left-wing, culturally Marxist movement. People started to open their eyes and saying that, I don't want to raise my kids in this type of a country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And it's fascinating on the affirmative action topic in particular. Because some of what President Trump is doing is not necessarily supported by the vast majority of Americans. I don't know if the vast majority of Americans agree with what President Trump is doing with January 6th. I do, but I don't think that's necessarily in the vast majority of Americans.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
However, this is what's so interesting. Poll after poll, referendum after referendum, vote after vote shows that Americans detest affirmative action. That Americans think that affirmative action is the wrong way of hiring. Even in California. And we saw this with the Bakke case where we struck down affirmative action at the Supreme Court.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And yet Republican presidents have been so terrified, terrified of touching this. The American people overwhelmingly in poll after poll have said they do not want race based hiring in any sort of institution. California in 2020 voted for Joe Biden by 30 points while simultaneously decisively rejecting affirmative action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And the media, they're just focusing on Enrique Tarrio, who was treated terribly, by the way. They're just focusing on Enrique Tarrio and that whole thing. When in reality, the structural changes that are happening are phenomenal. President Donald Trump parlayed this executive order spirit into a separate and equally potent executive order.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
As I mentioned with the FAA, we want the best pilots and the best air traffic control. We don't care about the color of somebody's skin when they're flying the plane. We just want to make sure that they are there based on merit and competency, not on melanin content.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And you just think about what Joe Biden and what Barack Obama and what all of these people have had to do to bring us to this moment. Where President Donald Trump is just bringing back to a center, common sense, no nonsense, I don't care what names you're going to call me, policy portfolio. George W. Bush would never do this. He was terrified of trying to touch affirmative action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
President Trump granted a full and complete pardon to Ross Ulbricht, who was wrongfully given a life sentence by overzealous federal prosecutors, one that I care deeply about. Andrew would tell you I've been fighting for Ross for years and years. I hope to have Ross on the show, by the way, soon, which would be amazing, right? Ross has been writing me letters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
In fact, he might have liked it. We are going after the center. Of the life force of the illegitimate modern Democrat party. The modern Democrat party thrives on multiple falsehoods and we are smashing them one after the other. The world is going to end because of climate change. That's one of them. Another one, trust the science, trust the science, trust the science. We're smashing that one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
The other one, that love is love and trans people are who they say they are. Oh, the trans thing is over in this country. That thing, you want to talk about a reversal of a cultural revolution? We went from having to accept the whole trans zealotry in every major institution to the trans mafia, the purple haired jihadis being run out in decent society.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
No, you're not going to be able to serve in the U.S. military if you're Jeff and you think you're Jill. No, you're not going to be able to go after our kids and gender mutilate. And by the way, stay tuned on the child mutilation stuff. There is stuff coming, as President Trump promised in the campaign.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And thirdly, we are taking back terrain on core issues the Democrats thought they were going to control. Wide open borders. The president thought... President Biden and the Democrat Party thought that they were going to have an open border regime for a generation. They thought that they were going to be able to have limitless amounts of foreigners. That is over. It is done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
The invasion is finished and the deportation efforts are underway. What is the Democrat Party going to look like? They have a very serious problem here. The Democrat Party has a very serious problem looming because they have built their constituency on race obsession and the country is race exhausted. So when you have a political party that is race obsessed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
and the nation is exhausted with your core issue, you're building yourself into a minority political party. And as the Democrats are so obsessed with, well, we have to make sure that BIPOC people have representation or Latinx people have representation. Got to make sure that you have the trans and the LGBTQIA2+.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And meanwhile, President Trump is actually mirroring the will of the American people that say, no, why do we even have this affirmative action guideline system? around in the first place. And the firm of action guideline was almost this untouchable, wholly inherited tradition that all it took is a signature. That's it. No lawsuits, no Supreme court decisions, no major pieces of legislation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
It didn't take, you know, whip and votes on Congress. It took an act of the will. And that is what we are seeing. And it is being demonstrated. It is one of my core life philosophies. What you focus on is what you get. And most of life is are you willing to actually go and do it? And we have not wanted. We have had a managed decline in the 1990s and early 2000s and up until this point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
I have a collection of these letters that Ross would write me from prison and got to know his mom very well. Ross Ulbricht was treated so unfairly, President Trump gave him a complete and unconditional and full pardon. So we will cover the Ross Ulbricht news in some time. I got to tell you, for me, that was one of my greatest failures of the first administration.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
It's been a slow motion managed decline. We would rather lose the country than be called a racist. And imagine Democrats are going to be arguing against this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
The Republican Party was in fear of this when all it means is that they get to go on TV, on news stations that nobody watches to go be quoted in newspapers that nobody reads to go say that the Republicans are racist, yawn, exhausted, tired, whatever. And we get to say we just banned racial discrimination in government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
I sent out one tweet yesterday already has millions and millions of views on this topic. More than what Jamie Raskin can go cattle wall with Jen Psaki on MSNBC. Go ahead, go complain to your 15 viewers. How are they even going to get their message out? They're scolds, they're whiners. And what are they going to complain?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Oh, I really wish white people could be discriminated against more in the government. No, no, no one wants that anymore. We are getting back to the centered of the promise of the founding fathers. We're getting back to the core ethos of why this is the greatest nation in history world. And it's not the greatest nation because of race politics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
It's not the greatest nation because of DEI, critical race theory inspired policy measures. It's because of merit. It's because of this idea that you can succeed regardless of where you're from and who you are. And that is a beautiful thing. And President Trump is bringing it back. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here with New Year's resolutions.

I pushed so hard to get Ross out of prison at the end of the first administration. And we got it done this time. So praise God. But let's spend our time on the earth moving stuff. Now, the fact that President Trump went shock and awe on January 6th on the first day, it moved the Overton window so much that the media is not even emphasizing that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
We are seeing that kind of pace. Are you going to be able to be in the press briefing rooms when Caroline Levitt does ask those questions?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Congratulations, Monica. Looking forward to seeing you on campus later today. And my only ask is when they call on you in front of all of them, say, Monica Page here with Turning Point USA Frontlines. Caroline, what... Monica, great work.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
The policy changes that President Trump is making around the sacred cows, the untouchable third rails that are key components of left-wing governance. As you know, on this program, we argue that during the civil rights era, there was a new constitution that was brought in. The new constitution was the Civil Rights Act.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
The new constitution was this super governmental new founding that thou shall not be racist. And of course, on this program, we believe that racism is terrible from the pit of hell and has no place in decent and advanced society. We also believe that this movement of anti-racism is bigoted at its core.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
That the movement of anti-racism actually goes against the core colorblind promise of the United States of America. In the 1960s and 70s, we started to bring in several changes to federal laws. And believe it or not, one of which was done by executive order. Did you know... that Lyndon Baines Johnson signed Executive Order 11246.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
Lyndon Baines Johnson signed Executive Order 11246, which mandated affirmative action rather than merit-based hiring in federal employment and contracting. Because of this affirmative action order, affirmative action has been the pseudo law of the land in America since Lyndon Baines Johnson was president. This was not passed by an act of Congress. This was not drawn up in committee hearings.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
This was not something where the American people got behind it like the Civil Rights Act. No, this is something completely and fundamentally different. This was done by an act of the president. This was an executive order. Stroke of a pen. Now, mind you, do you know that Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, And George W. Bush, the three Republican presidents, refused to touch this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
In fact, they wouldn't even take meetings on this topic. It was way too radical. The affirmative action order required... white people to be discriminated against in the federal government. This is probably the most aggressive and bold executive order ever issued by Trump in either of his terms. In political terms, it may be the bravest move by a U.S. president in half a century or more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
When President Trump announced late last night was the repeal of Executive Order 1126, I just gotta be honest, this is one of the most remarkable things President Trump has ever done. 11246 supposedly just tells federal contractors not to discriminate. But for more than 50 years, this order has been interpreted by the government and by the courts as requiring discrimination.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
You must discriminate against white people. You have to discriminate based on race. to get federal dollars. This has become a total invasion of every principle that made America great. It's a total invasion of the text and the promise and the structure of the Constitution. Executive Order 11246 by LBJ was meant to supersede the U.S. Constitution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And to be very clear, we want a country based on merit, not race. That is it. We want things that matter to be prioritized more so than things that do not matter. How you act, how you present yourself, how hard you work. That is what the society should be built upon. Your character. President Donald Trump is doing these day one and two offensive as he has overwhelming the opposition.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
And by the way, if you check out my book, Right Wing Revolution, it described a strategy a lot like this. Maybe some people took some inspiration from it. Who knows? But we want all people to succeed. Now, Andrew would tell you, remember yesterday, Andrew, I was walking around being like, there's more coming. There's more coming.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
This affirmative action executive order is one of the greatest accomplishments by a Republican president in 50 years. It didn't take a big piece of legislation. It didn't take no child left behind. It didn't take, oh, you know, a mission accomplished aircraft carrier. It didn't take the invasion of Iraq. It didn't take the forming of the Department of Homeland Security.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Bravest President of All Time
President Donald Trump signing this executive order, making merit the law of the land and the custom in this country. clarifies that discrimination is illegal and orders contractors and grant recipients to not practice racial discrimination. So just to be clear, that means every college across the country can no longer do affirmative action.

Do you know what's going on right now as I'm doing this broadcast? There are very heated discussions. HR and senior legal meetings happening at every major federal contractor of general councils that are trying to figure out how to comply with this executive order.

Ronald Reagan didn't do this because he didn't want to be called a racist. By the way, everyone says, oh, Ronald Reagan was this great president. He was a fine president.

I mean, but let's be honest, Ben, Congress is not going to do anything. So then what's the plan?

Every one of them sits in one of 994 judicial districts covering a single state or even a small part of a state. Normally, the jurisdiction of these judges is supposed to cover the area of their district. But a nationwide injunction is when one of these judges issues an order and commands that it be implemented all across the country. Now, these used to be exceedingly rare.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
Right. I mean, but the Senate holding a hearing doesn't do anything right. I mean, and they're not going to pass anything there. They just talk all day long. So do you think it's time potentially to just ignore some of these injunctions?

These always used to be used maybe a couple times for an entire presidency. For example, when George W. Bush was president for eight years, he was only hit with nationwide injunctions six times. Obama, president for eight years, was hit with 12 nationwide injunctions. The first Trump administration, 64 times. Now, that's more than half of all the injunctions since the 1960s.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
So, Ben, I know that even the entertaining of defying these nationwide injunctions is a big lift and is something that has never happened before in, I don't want to say never in American history, but ever since the advent of the injunction, we have not seen this. Do you have any indication the Supreme Court is going to step up and restore order to this chaotic moment?

The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
That is the best way that I could explain a nationwide injunction. It stops the function, the action and the order and the power of the president of the United States. President Trump has had more nationwide injunctions in the past two months than Joe Biden had in his entire term. Let me say that again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
President Trump has had more nationwide injunctions in the past two months than Joe Biden had in his entire presidency. 60 days, not even four years. These nationwide injunctions have been to prevent, for example, the defunding of USAID. Perfectly constitutional for President Trump to do that. You must spend the money. You must give condoms to people of Gaza. You must fund Sesame Street in Iraq.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
These judges have moved to prevent the deportation of gang members from Venezuela. Just last night, a judge said the military can't block transgender people from joining the military. So President Trump is no longer in charge of the armed forces. President Trump is no longer in charge of movements of who is in the military.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
What they are doing is they are slowly enveloping and eating and marching within the federal government and on the presidency. Many of these orders are flagrantly illegal. For example, it is well established that the military can decide who it enlists because that rests in a single person, the commander in chief.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
So if transgender people were banned before Obama and they were banned in Trump's first term, he obviously can do it. Doesn't matter. The judge comes in and says it's not allowed. This is cut 158 up on screen. This is the order. District court judge orders the U.S. military to continue enlisting mentally delusional transgender people, justifying their decision and quoting the musical Hamilton.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
That's where we're at. Literally quoting the musical Hamilton. This is in the footnotes of a federal judge. These are the people that are running your government right now. They're quoting a musical. Not a joke. Footnote 5. Women were included in the sequel when passage of the 19th Amendment granted them the right to vote. See Lin-Manuel Miranda, Hamilton, a musical.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
So now that we are trying to protect our military from transgender people from coming in and potentially causing discord, chaos, and confusion, the federal judge that is saying, no, you can't do that, is using a musical as their legal justification. You voted for President Trump, but an oligarchy is standing in the way, a legal oligarchy,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
To prevent President Trump's rightful constitutional authority. Over the last 100 years, power has been concentrated in two places. It has been concentrated in the unelected bureaucracy and the unelected judiciary, the administrative state and the black robe regimen. of legal oligarchs that thwart the will of the American people. This is what the downfall of a republic looks like.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
It is a black robe coup. So what is the plan? Well, there's many options that can be pursued. The first of which is you can pursue impeachment. It's probably not a good idea. First of all, you don't have the votes. Second of all, it will only probably embolden other judges to act even more crazily. Probably not a good idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
In many cases, these judges don't ever plan for their orders to hold up at a higher level. Their plan is, this is the key, to block and to hinder and to delay. If it takes a year or two years to get the case through the Supreme Court, that's two wasted years for this administration that they hate. They're trying to run out the clock.

Meanwhile, they're trying to send their shock troops to go burn more Teslas, to go swat more conservative influencers and radio hosts. to go send more of their shock troops into the streets. These judges are trying to buy time for the paramilitary arm of the Democrat Party to create more chaos in the streets, to slow down President Trump's mandate given to him by the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
This is an orchestrated hit at the core of our republic. If it takes a year or even two years, some of these cases, by the way, could take three to four years now to work through the courts. That's what a nationwide injunction does. It stops everything. And by the way, did you notice that conservative judges refuse to do this very much under Joe Biden?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
Because we actually have respect for the Constitution. We believe in Article 2 powers. You see, while we're being principled, the Democrats, they're not principled. They're power hungry. And they know that they don't have power right now. So they're using the last thing at their disposal. The unelected black robe regime.

This consequential, because this has never happened before in American history. Can you write that down, mail it to yourself, deliver it, text it to a friend? Never happened before. George W. Bush had six injunctions. Donald Trump has. How many total injunctions does President Trump have right now? I think it's well over 100. There are a lot of good ideas out there right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
For example, we could create an expedited appeals process for nationwide injunctions. So they go to the Supreme Court as quickly as possible. We could also make it so that lawsuits seeking nationwide injunctions are assigned to random judges or a random panel of judges.

Right now, political activists will pick the friendliest judge they can anywhere in the country, and they judge shop and venue shop.

They got to start producing. Pressure is on you guys.

President Trump is here. He's getting enjoined. He's solving a war. He's running the Kennedy Center. He's doing strikes on Houthis. Meanwhile, you got to get your act together, Congress. Enough.

I don't even want to get into this. John Thune and Mike Johnson, forget it. Nothing's going to happen. So now we have to consider the highest of all the options. And let's talk about it. I'm not even saying it's a good idea. I'm not endorsing it. But it must be entertained to ignore some of these orders. To be clear, we have not done that yet.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
The Trump administration has bent over backwards not to do that. These courts have engaged in absurd behavior. And President Trump has avoided everything possible to ignore a judge's order. That's why we've had all the drama with the Trendyaragua flights.

They were flown out as quickly as possible so that the planes would be over international waters before a judge could invent a fake justification to demand that we must keep foreign gang murderers in the United States. But what if stunts like this aren't enough? Well, for now, the plan is to appeal things up the chain. The ball is in the Supreme Court right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
Justice Clarence Thomas has pointed out that this tyranny of nationwide injunctions is brand new. It didn't exist 70 years ago. It didn't exist 20 years ago. The Supreme Court could fix this by saying, hey, actually, a district court judge can only issue rulings in their district, or they can issue a nationwide injunction in this narrow set of circumstances.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
But eventually, we may have a case that is so important, an order can't be followed. A judge might say, hey, America has to let in all the millions of people you want to enter America. You can't stop them. Open the borders. If that happens, then President Trump should be ready to say...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
That order is unconstitutional, and I, as commander-in-chief and guardian of the nation's borders, will not follow it. And I don't say this lightly. Ignoring a district court should be the last resort, but they are pushing us in that corner. It should only be done in the most extreme circumstances, with the most outrageous... beyond the pale rulings by a renegade district court judge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The National Injunction Crisis, Brought To You By the Democrats
If we do it in one case, we should not automatically do it in others. You must be very careful which ones you do it with. But these people are pushing President Trump in a corner. And remember, the only court that is defined in the Constitution is the Supreme Court. President Trump has a mandate from the American people, not district court judges. Charlie Kirk here.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I don't like using the C word unnecessarily, but we are living in a crisis. We are now living in a crisis that is a constitutional crisis. It is a crisis of the nationwide injunction.

And I don't think Christians and conservatives, I don't think that we are really prepared to confront the rise of cultural Islam, which is the rise of political Islam.

President Trump had a call with Vladimir Putin. I'm going to read the entire press release here live on air.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
It is breaking news. It seems like it's a whole bunch of nothing, but it's actually a very deep and promising development. Today, President Trump and President Putin spoke about the need for peace and a ceasefire in the Ukraine war. Both leaders agreed this conflict needs to end with a lasting peace. They also stressed the need for improved bilateral relations between the United States and Russia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
There were no bilateral relations when Joe Biden was president. We were not even talking. Let me continue. The blood and treasure that both Russia and Ukraine have been spending in this war would be better spent on the needs of their people. Let me pause. Joe Biden ever refused. He refused to ever count the Russian part of the war as part of a casualty, meaning it was only the Ukrainian side.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Both sides are human beings dying in this conflict. Both sides have families and both sides were needlessly going to war. This conflict never should have started, the White House writes, and should have been ended long ago with sincere and good faith peace efforts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
The leaders agreed that the movement to peace will begin with an energy and infrastructure ceasefire, as well as technical negotiations on implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea, which of course is right near Crimea. Crimea is in the Black Sea. A full ceasefire and permanent peace. These negotiations will begin immediately in the Middle East.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
So essentially, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, wherever. The leaders spoke broadly more about the Middle East as a region of potential cooperation to prevent future conflicts. They further discussed the need to stop proliferation of strategic weapons and will engage with others to ensure the broadest possible application.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
The two leaders shared the view that Iran should never be in a position to destroy Israel. That's an amazing development. The two leaders agreed that a future with an improved bilateral relationship between the United States and Russia has a huge upside. This includes enormous economic deals and geopolitical stability when peace has been achieved. So we're still processing all this a lot here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Blessed are the peacemakers, Pastor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Well, I'm talking about something completely different. I'm talking about cultural Islam. I'm talking about the slow, subtle suicide of the West. We're going to ask Andrew Sedra, who has been speaking out against Islam in Australia, is Islam compatible with Western civilization? It's a very serious question, and I'm not attacking individual Muslims.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
There's also some wonderful Christians that have been repressed there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Amen. And so they mention in here Iran not getting a nuclear weapon. So President Trump solving the Ukrainian Russia deal, I think, will be worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize. If he can solve the Israel Gaza Hamas problem, that'll be it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
I think that's breaking news.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And President Trump is being very smart because you think about it. Russia wants to have some negotiating power over Iran. And if Iran gets a nuclear weapon, they're going to lose some of the leverage that they have over Iran. Russia is not going to get rid of the nuclear weapons. It's not possible. They have more nuclear weapons than we do. And so therefore, Trump knows this.

He says, OK, one point of agreement we might have. And it's also very good for Israel. Now, I would not go as far to say that Russia is pro-Israel, but they're not anti-Israel. Russia has been a very complicated actor with Israel, but they have donated money in the past. It's been on both sides. They built a church in Hebron, as you might know, like a Russian Orthodox church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And I would say neutral is probably the best way, but it hopefully could invite a broader sentiment that America is here for peace while also standing by our allies such as Israel in the region. Let's talk more broadly about Israel. How should Christians and Americans think about our alliance with the state of Israel?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Of course, we all know individual Muslims that are good people and they act fine. Is the ideology compatible? Is it oil and vinegar? Are they going to be able to fit together? It's a very simple question. I can say right now leftism and Western civilization are incompatible. They are incompatible. Leftism and the West cannot coexist. One has to win, either the left or the West. It is very simple.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Without a doubt. And they were attacked on October 7th.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
That moral clarity is critically important.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Six-day war, Yom Kippur War from their founding. It's always defensive.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And that is the witness we must be to the world. What do you have to say for Christians that, I don't even want to say are anti-Israel, but either have never been to Israel, they don't quite understand the significance of it. You said it beautifully, there would be no salvation, there'd be no Bible, there'd be no savior, there'd be none of it without the state of Israel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
What has Israel meant for your life? The first time you went to Israel, tell us the story. Tell us the Jensen Franklin story of going to Israel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
It is a binary. Islam is not the faith of Western civilization. There is a reason that America was born from a Christian heritage. It never could have been born from Muslim heritage. We're going to explore that in a second. Blake did a great job summarizing this. Thank you, Blake, for going through the Russian stuff. It's actually the call has not yet been translated. Here's what we know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Pastor Franklin, thank you for all you do and thank you for hosting us here at Free Chapel. Any website or anything you want our audience to be aware of?

The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
That is 1-800-4-RELIEF, 1-800-4-RELIEF. Lots to cover here. I do want to mention the JFK thing. So JFK has not yet been released. We sent out a tweet. We should probably repost this tweet. I believe it was on... This would have been on the 19th of January, I think, we sent out the tweet. Let me think about this. Yeah, it would have been the 19th of January.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And we sent out a tweet basically saying, listen, one of two things will happen with the JFK file release. Option A is that we're going to learn that the government was involved in... the assassination of JFK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Or number two, we're going to learn that the government overclassifies everything and there's a bunch of people with job justification titles and we shouldn't have classified these documents in the first place. I can almost guarantee you that there will not be documents that show that the government killed JFK. However, I still believe the government was involved in the assassination of JFK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
So we will... We will take a look at that. OK, so there is a Harvard Pulitzer. I'm just doing this live on air. I'm doing this for the first time, as they would say. There's this guy who's very well respected. His name is J.D.V. Is that right? Not to be not to be confused with J.D. Vance. What is his name? Della Volpe. OK. Gen Z's rightward shift.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
What Charlie Kirk understands that Democrats don't. Economic anxiety, institutional distrust and media savvy inside conservatives Gen Z playbook. I'm reading this for the first time. Governor Gavin Newsom podcast with Charlie Kirk founder reveals an irrefutable truth. Conservatives are winning the youth messaging war, though the L.A. Times called their exchange full on cringe.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
We know first that Putin made Trump wait. Of course, obviously, I'm a big, strong man because I'm OK. Sit down. I mean. whatever, typical diplomatic nonsense. Honestly, good for president. This is very important though. This shows the magnanimity of president Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Kirk's journey from card table and a debate me sign to political influence offers critical insights into Gen Z's rightward shift. Despite growing backlash to Trump's economic policies and blah, blah, blah, blah, there's a lot to learn. Trump claimed his organization achieved a 13-point youth voting swing in just four years, while this exact number may—it's not dubious. He says dubious.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
This guy's totally wrong. It's proven, actually. Republicans have undeniably gained ground with younger voters by building campus infrastructure strategy Democrats have failed to counter. Throughout his conversation, Kirk relied on—arguments relied on significant exaggerations. What am I reading here, guys? Okay. Okay. I don't think he's saying I'm right. He's insulting me half the time here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Okay. Okay. Kirk and his allies have masterfully manufactured culture issues. Okay. I don't... We didn't manufacture anything. Okay. Quote, today's conservatives have flipped the script entirely. They now present themselves as the anti-establishment force. Well, we're not presenting ourselves. We are. Again, I don't like the way this is written. Fighting against what they characterize as corrupt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Meanwhile, Democrats have become... Defenders of institutional expertise, supporting public health authorities, election officials, intelligence agencies, and academic consensus. That is absolutely true. The contemporary media ecosystem advantages those willing to engage in long-form unscripted conversations without concern for policy precision.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Prioritize emotional resonance over factual accuracy. Okay, whatever. All right, we're done reading this guy's piece. The point being is that they are... acknowledging that we have made a significant impact on moving the younger generation to the right. The battle for Gen Z isn't just about winning the next election. It's about shaping America's political future for decades to come.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Kirk's influence demonstrates that the party that best addresses young Americans anxieties about their economic and social prospects could well secure a generational advantage. The data is clear. Younger voters respond to authenticity, economic opportunity and genuine engagement with their concerns. They're not looking for celebrity endorsements or rehearsed talking points.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
They want leaders who understand their lived reality of precarious finances, housing insecurity, and diminished expectations. That, my friend, is exactly right. And despite all the condescension, he's a liberal talking about things in the article, he is acknowledging that we understand exactly how to communicate to this generation. It's true. And by the way, visiting these campuses, I've become
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
I know how to talk to the next generation pretty well. And there is an authenticity to all this. And we did what worked. And the Democrats don't have a messaging answer. And let me tell you, if the Democrats were to do this on campus, they would get completely roasted.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
You know, he gets shown on television as being impulsive and having no patience and president Trump could have canceled the phone call because obviously president Trump is the statesman here, but president Trump understood what Putin was doing. It's an old kind of diplomatic Russian tactic on, by the way, he did the same thing to Tucker Carlson. He made Tucker wait two and a half hours for him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Conservatives would come up to guys like whatever, Destiny or Sam Seder, and they would make them look like fools like Sam Seder was. That random YouTube guy made Sam Seder look like a buffoon.

When he went to interview him in the Kremlin. Anyway, President Trump did the right thing and probably laughed about it. So, you know, Vlad thinks he's a real tough guy now. He took the high road. He deserves credit for it. Well done, President Trump. The call lasted more than 90 minutes. So about 45 minutes of discussion, if you count for the translation back and forth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Dan Scavino at the White House claimed the call was going well. It was ongoing. A Russian government official said, quote, under the leadership of President Putin and President Trump, the world has become a much safer place today. That's a promising sign, hopefully. While Trump and Putin were on the call, President Zelensky's chief of staff. My goodness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
I'm telling you, if there's one reason why this war won't end, it's Zelensky. I'm telling you, this guy is getting in the way of it. I'm losing patience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
He said, while Trump and Putin were on the call, President Zelensky's chief of staff stated that Ukraine's supposed red lines for peace, saying that Ukraine won't accept a neutral status, won't reduce their armed forces, and won't recognize any Russian gains in Ukraine. Well, okay. But if a good peace deal is on the table, Ukraine rejects it, and then the consequences are on them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Yeah, for the record, I lost patience with Zelensky a long time ago, but then I try to renew my patience of which that reserve gets depleted every time I look at him again. So the situation is ongoing between Zelensky and Putin and Trump. Understand, President Trump is here as the magnanimous statesman. If he gets this done, it is Nobel Peace Prize territory.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And I'm not just saying this hyperbolically. If he gets this deal done, and of course Crimea should be on the table. Absolutely Crimea should be on the table. It was given symbolically by Nikita Khrushchev. I believe that's correct. In what, 1954? As a gesture. Basically saying, hey, this is Russian-Ukrainian harmony. We're going to live together. It's symbolic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
It was a gesture of 300 years of Russian-Ukraine unity. What's the best example of this? The best example would be if we wrongly gave Mexico-Texas Something as silly as that. Obviously, Texas is part of America. It has Texans. Blake says it would be even dumber than that. Give me an example. Us giving them Ohio? Or us giving Canada Ohio or something. Maybe that would be dumb.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
I don't know what Blake means if that's dumber. Anyway, point being... is that it would be like Michigan giving up the Upper Peninsula to Wisconsin. Okay, got it. That would be pretty dumb. Now, did Biden ever try to de-escalate this conflict? Did Biden ever try to calm down the tensions and the pressures and the angst and the anxiety? Was there ever an attempt for mass de-escalation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
No, we saw the opposite. We saw a pressure campaign, in fact, a creation of a pressure cooker of armaments and the slow motion sleepwalking, the barreling towards a potential hot nuclear war. And if I may just speak candidly, I actually feel better tonight about the future of the world that our countries are talking about. that our countries have actually some sort of channel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
We have learned that there was no diplomatic back channel between Russia and the United States. Biden cut everything off, which is just so unbelievably stupid. It's so immature. It's so imprudent for anybody to do that under any circumstance. You should always have some way where you can even communicate with the enemy. And then we forced Russia into the Chinese Communist Party orbit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Speaking of orbit, by the way, those astronauts are coming back. Thank you, Elon Musk. We are going to talk about that. It's an amazing story. It's a monumental story. The Chinese Communist Party is the threat. Our entire foreign policy should be primarily focused on curtailing the rise of the Chinese Communist Party, the ascension of the Maoists. And that's what they are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And insofar that you have this triangulation, the new axis being created, Iran with the Persians, the Chinese Communist Party, and potentially the Russians, you got a big problem. Why would we hand over an element of the Axis? And then you've got the cartels, which then operate as proxies of all of them to be able to then infect and poison our youth and invade our nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Remember, Russia was not a primary ally of the United States going into World War II. It was only because of Hitler's megalomania that eventually Russia and Germany got at odds with one another, and eventually we... kind of found ourselves allied with the Soviet Union, which, by the way, was the right thing for us to do. Russia lost millions of people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
We do not have to be in perpetual conflict with Russia. You should write that down and commit it to memory. I don't like Russia. I don't think highly of their government. They're not a free society. It's run by a bunch of gangsters and thugs. It's like if the mafia took over a country. That's basically it. They do have some rich culture that is worthy of appreciation and recognition.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
Tolstoy is a real thing. Dostoevsky, real thing. Tchaikovsky, real thing. War and peace, real thing. That's real stuff. Real beauty. Real art. Worthy of recognition. Worthy of appreciation. Worthy of study. So both those things can be simultaneously true. But Washington only exists in the binaries. Washington only exists as enemy, friend, good, evil. Sometimes it's far more nuanced than that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.

Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And Russia has always operated in the gray. By the way, they are a very gray country, just to be honest. They're aesthetically gray. Their mood is gray. They're always depressed. They're drinking themselves to sleep. They're a very gray people. And kind of more metaphorically and then more literally, they seem to be
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Trump The Peace President Solve Ukraine/Russia?
And gray in foreign policy, sometimes they're a friend, sometimes they need to be kind of brushed off a little bit. And Andrew says in the chat, they are Europeans after all. I'd love to have Blake's take on that. It's a little bit more complicated. They have a lot of Euro influences, but they're kind of their own thing. They're definitely Eastern Europe, but it's their own identity. Very Slavic.

Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier and

So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.

So, yeah, it's just remarkable what you've built here. And I agree that there is this moment of choosing – for the American church right now.

So just kind of give us a perspective first and foremost, then I want to get into the gold bars. What is your vision for the EPA from a conservative pro-growth perspective?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
Let's play cut 134. This got some headlines. Let's play cut 134.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
So some people actually thought it was gold bars for the record. However, it's very, very good branding there. What did you learn about this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
Absolutely. Can you explain the nexus between left wing NGOs and government money?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
It's just, it's unbelievable. Talk also about the return to work push. How many EPA staff are there and how many were going into the office before?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
I could not agree more. So the premise of the EPA should be to develop and to explore the liquid gold, as President Trump would say. How do we balance that with while being environmentally conscious, also having an expedited agenda to have the most energy dominant country on the planet?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
President Trump wrote an executive order saying we need to have water standards, flow pertaining to sinks, showers, toilets, and washing machines. I can't stand these low-flow showers. What's going on, Lee?

If I, as a visitor, or let's just say someone who is native to Germany, were to go out in public and criticize mass migration, if they were to say that mass migration makes your cities dirtier, if it increases rapes and crime, what could happen to that individual?

Was there a, and I'm not trying to get you in trouble here because they're probably monitoring this and they'd love an excuse to come after you. So be very careful.

I mean, there's very little, Marie, that gets me speechless. This is breathtaking.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
So help me understand then. It looks as if your polling is going very well. But is it true that no matter how well your party does, you're not allowed to have a voice in government? What is the truth behind this?

Marie, how can people support? And if this does not go well on Sunday, what does the future of Germany look like for you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
Marie, thank you so much. And yes, vote AFD, vote AFD for the sanity of the West. And I'll be visiting Berlin in May. I'm giving a speech there with Dr. Jordan Peterson. And during our speech, we're actually going to say all the things that are verboten, see if they'll arrest us. They might arrest two Americans on stage, but we'll see if I think the American government will have our back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
God bless you. Talk to you soon. This is sick and scary stuff, everybody, where that you could be criminalized for posting a meme online. You could tell. Marie there has to be very guarded, has to be very careful, because they might raid her home. Secret police, meme police, brought to you by the German government. And meanwhile, this is exactly what J.D. Vance was going to Munich.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
He threw it down. J.D. Vance drew a line in the sand. And so we're not going to keep on subsidizing this. We're not going to keep on allowing this to happen. This is the strange death of Europe, as Douglas Murray has talked about for quite some time. Totalitarianism mixed with mass Middle Eastern Mohammedan migration.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
I think the German story, a little bit different than the French and the English story. The English story is just a sad husk of its former self. The German story, though, because they're very productive, industrious people. I mean, the Germans worked their tail off. They're incredibly precise. They're great engineers. They got some great companies. It's all one word, guilt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vance is Right: Germany Isn't Free
What happens when you have a lot of guilt and you don't have Christianity? You embrace left-wing politics. You need Christianity or some form of a belief in God to be able to deal with your guilt. Otherwise, you go find radical left-wing politics. Christ breaks you from your shame and your guilt. Left-wing politics does not. Hey, Charlie Kirk here.

Great work, Brett. Everyone check out that website, tpaction.com slash 100. Brett, we'll have you on again soon. We see it all the time when I visit college campuses. Young adults demonize the concept of free markets and think government is the solution to every problem. How do we change this? By teaching our kids the foundational principles to counter what they are taught in public school.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Since the beginning, we have been very clear on this program that it is not America's role to get involved in the Russian Ukrainian dispute. From the very beginning, we looked at the cost and the consequences about how this could destabilize an entire continent that could destroy the U.S. dollar, that could bring us closer and closer to needless nuclear war.

Michael, tell us all about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
The format is rather unusual, so just for anyone who has not seen this, again, we did this back in August. I think we were the first of this new genre. Ours got 26 million YouTube views, hundreds of millions of views online, and it was like a nuclear bomb for many reasons, one of which was that one of the debatees wished harm upon me and my family. Sweet people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
But I want to just give people a little bit of a taste of just the type of debate that this is. And I just want to reiterate one very important thing, that it is one person on 25. So they are able to interject at any time. They're able to come in at any time they want and raise their flag. So let's watch Michael's first, and then we'll watch some of mine. Michael at 158 with Emily in Paris.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It's not happening, but it's good that it is. She actually did the meme, or he, I guess, actually did the meme.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It was the conventional wisdom back in 2022 at the outbreak of the war It was the conventional wisdom that we must fight Russia. We must fight Russia. I actually went to CPAC three years ago and said, no, it was written up everywhere. I said that our leaders should care more about the southern border than the Ukrainian border. I was attacked as being insensitive, cruel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
I didn't know. The reason I say sometimes, you know, camouflage pulls it off, but I was thinking to myself, actually, I think that's an imposter as the tranny was talking.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
He was at Mason. I think he was in mine as well. No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
So I want to just give people a little taste from my dialogue. This is a good version of them being shocked, and I hope you guys understand. This is one on 25. I have to keep on repeating it. It's exhausting because they're able to think about their best argument. Now, mind you, I had—I don't want to say professional debaters, but— Jubilee, they're a little tricky. A little tricky.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Because they're like, oh, you're going to be debating college kids. Okay, that's sort of true. But some of these kids are like, all they do is go on TikTok and yell at people all day long. So they're a little bit more elevated. So it's like hive mind against one person. So as soon as you win one debate, another person comes in. And you win one, another person comes in. This is 156.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
So I want to make a quick point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Black Americans are in prison far greater than a percentage of the population. So black Americans, about 13% to 14% of the population, about half of all prisoners are black.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
So blacks commit more crimes than whites do. They commit more murders. They commit more arsons. They commit more kidnappings. For example, blacks are 13 percent of the population and they commit 58 percent of all the murders. That's not a war on drugs. That's a culture problem. And I mean, they just lose it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
What did you learn more broadly about left wing Gen Z by doing this? I mean, you do a lot of campus stuff. I do a lot of campus stuff. What I I'll tell you what I learned after doing this is I know how shallow they are, but how comfortable they are in their their shallow political ideology.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
In reality, we were just putting America first. 99% of the people in our audience were against us. It was by far the most unpopular stand that we've ever taken. And I knew we were right. At our core, I knew I was right. It's been one of those interesting things to see how the audience moved throughout the months. We'd be getting Ukrainian flags sent to us in email chains.

They have intentionally not decided to deepen their understanding and so remarkably intolerant of anyone that might have a different opinion.

Private student loan debt in America totals about $300 billion, but $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. YREFI refinances distressed or defaulted private student loans that others will not touch. They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. That is YREFI.com, Y-R-E-F-I.com. Just call them at 888-YREFI34 or log on to YREFI.com. Do you have a co-borrower?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
RyRefi can get them released from the loan. You can give mom or dad a break. You can even skip a payment every six months up to 12 times without a penalty. Can you imagine being debt-free and not living under this burden anymore? The first step is to contact RyRefi. If your private student loan debt is keeping you up at night and ruining your life, it doesn't have to. Just call YRefi.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
I think very highly YRefi. We're working them on a lot of stuff. They're helping sponsor our campus tour. We're all in with them. That is YRefi.com. Over $30 billion in private student loan debt. If you guys have student loan debt and in distressed fashion, go YRefi.com. That is YRefi.com. Okay, everybody, let's play some more of Mr. Knowles with the linebacker. Play cut 160.

People saying, we must fight the Russians. Now our audience is 99% against it. It has been one of the most remarkable changes and shifts.

And those of you that were in that 1%, you helped move the Overton window. You held the line.

The American people are exhausted with sending hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. Remember, we had lawmakers on this program, one of whom I have a lot of respect for, North Dakota's own Senator Kramer. Again, he's a great man. We talk frequently. We just are completely different sides of this topic. This is not about anything personal with Senator Kramer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
He was very polite when he came on the show. But he said on this program that there would be no limit to the amount of money that would be sent to Ukraine. Apparently, he was right. Over $300 to $350 billion that we have spent on what? So that over a million people could be died to subsidize the slaughter of entire generations of Ukrainians? President Trump just posted this on Truth Social.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
It is breaking news live here on this program. And I'm going to read the entire thing word for word. President Trump is the peace president. What he is doing is going to make the world a better, more stable place. Joe Biden was barreling us blindly towards a world war. Donald Trump writes on Truth Social, quote, Think of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
A modestly successful comedian, Volodymyr Zelensky, talked the United States of America into spending $350 billion to go into a war that couldn't be won. that never had to start, but a war that he, without the US and Trump, will never be able to settle. Let me pause. Him calling him a modestly successful comedian means that President Trump is irked at Zelensky.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
You see, Zelensky wants to keep the war going. Zelensky does not have a loyalty to his people. Zelensky is captured by ultra-radical Ukrainian nationalists that refuse to ever negotiate with the Russian government. There was a deal on the table A week into the conflict that was being brokered in Istanbul, Turkey. Boris Johnson was there. Tony Blinken was there. Sergei Lavrov was there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
The Russian foreign minister was there. And a deal could have been brokered one week into the conflict that would have given Ukraine more land than they would currently get right now. And a million people would not have died. The United States has spent $200 billion more than Europe, and Europe's money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Why didn't sleepy Joe Biden demand equalization? In that this war is far more important to Europe than it is to us. We have a big, beautiful ocean of separation. This is exactly right. Europe, why don't you guys step up? Oh, because the same Europeans that were clamoring and rebuking J.D. Vance are the ones that want us to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on their defense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
So they want us to be able to subsidize their European social welfare democracies, even though they're censoring their own citizens. Even though Germany is looking far more like Russia than even Russia is, Europe did not step up to the plate because they want America to fight the fight for them. On top of this, Zelensky admits that half of the money we sent is missing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
He refuses to have elections and is very low in Ukrainian polls. And the only thing he was good at was playing Biden like a fiddle, a dictator without elections. Trump is calling Zelensky a dictator. Yeah, I mean, he refuses to have an election. And let's press pause here. You might say it's the midst of a war. Who could have an election?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Abraham Lincoln had an election in the midst of an American Civil War. Franklin Delano Roosevelt had elections in the midst of a world war. We had elections in the midst of World War I. Leaders who are illegitimate suspend Democrat means and norms to hold on to power. They could easily have an election right now. Easily. Zelensky better move fast or he's not going to have a country left.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
In the meantime, we are successfully negotiating an end to the war with Russia, something I'll admit only Trump and the Trump administration can do. Biden never tried. Europe has failed to bring peace, and Zelensky probably wants to keep the gravy train going. I love Ukraine, which is very important that Trump says that, but Zelensky has done a terrible job.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
His country is shattered, and millions have unnecessarily died, and so it continues. So let me translate all of this. This is President Trump with a public salvo because I guarantee you President Trump has been trying to get Zelensky's attention privately because President Trump is not just opposing Zelensky. This is President Trump scolding his own intelligence department.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
The CIA deep state, they are the ones that have been puppeteering Zelensky for this entire time. They're the ones that have been configuring this entire conflict. And the power of public scolding like this is you better get in line or else I'm going to go do a deal with the Russians. The Ukrainians are getting mad that there might be an end to the war. Think about that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
They're getting mad that this war might actually end. President Trump ran on the idea of preventing World War III and preventing a nuclear conflict. And President Trump says very clearly that He's a dictator. He's acting like a dictator. Absolutely. So the significance of this entire statement is we are going to find a settlement to this war, whether Zelensky wants it or not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
He does not have a say in this matter anymore. Ukraine operates solely thanks to the subsidy of the American government. And God bless President Trump for just toning out all of the clamoring from people like Tom Cotton, people like Liz Cheney. They all want this war to continue. Yet President Trump says, no, I'm not going to listen to the neocons of the U.S. Senate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
Washington wants forever wars. Joni Ernst, these guardians of the forever war machine. The same people who let Afghanistan last 20 years want another 20-year war. Trump wants peace. And this is him warning everybody, peace is coming. So get on our side or peace is going to be stuffed down your throat, Mr. Modestly Successful Comedian named Zelensky. How well do you sleep at night?
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
The Central Intelligence Agency, the workings of the international intelligence community, Five Eyes, the deep state is squirming. They want permanent forever war with no end in sight. And if you even ask them a crisply delivered question, why do we hate Russia? I can't say that. Why are we at war with Russia? They can't answer that. President Trump calls Zelensky a dictator without elections.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump’s Salvo for Peace Against “Dictator” Zelenskyy
He's right. Zelensky refuses to face his own people. If Zelensky was super popular, why doesn't he have an election? Abraham Lincoln did. Maybe because he's not popular.

The CR is very frustrating to a lot of this audience. You've worked a lot in the Senate and on legal counseling. What specifically do you think needs to change in the Trump administration to make sure that we can disrupt the standard operating procedure here?

So can I just ask kind of the verboten question that since this case was not dismissed on the immunity charge, is there is there a chance that President Trump gets sentenced while president?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Yeah, I just what would that look like? I just I need to speculate a little bit with you here, Mike, which is a sitting president that might have to serve jail time in a New York courthouse. Are we even having this conversation right now?

Walk me through the criminal code, Mike, of what they could potentially be held accountable for.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Mike, am I correct in my recollection here that conspiracy against rights is what they used to put Douglas Mackey in the criminal justice? I want to say behind bars because he hasn't been sentenced yet, but is that correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Okay, so what is a continuing resolution? We are now on the 35th CR, or continuing resolution. Let's educate you first, all of us together, on what a CR is. So a CR and the primary purpose of a CR is to try to prevent a government shutdown by keeping the government running at current funding levels until new budget agreements are reached. So here's how it works. It's about a four step process.

What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
It's usually a short-term funding measure. A CR provides, typically, funding at same or about levels as the previous fiscal year. This allows government operations to continue without any interruption, even though the formal appropriations process has not been completed. The duration of a CR usually lasts from either a couple days to several months.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
So, Mike. The U.S. attorney situation. Does the president have the authority to fire all U.S. attorneys? And since U.S. attorneys have to be confirmed by the Senate, who actually runs the U.S. attorney offices in the interim?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
That's really smart. Last thing, Mike, remember last time in 2017, the acting director was Sally Yates. Am I correct? Is that my memory? Am I right? How can the Trump team prevent an acting director in the Department of Justice that might do something goofy in Trump's first couple minutes or hours of the presidency? 30 seconds.

depending on how long Congress needs to finalize the appropriations bills or reach a broader budget agreement. Now, let me pause. We have not gone back to regular established budget order in 35 CRs. It has now been 35 CRs over and over and over again. That phrase, kicking the can down the road, is summarized within the idea of ACR.

That is members.charliekirk.com. Come to America Fest. It's happening right now, amfest.com. That is amfest.com. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
As the name suggests, it's just a resolution to continue business as usual. No changes, no cuts, no appropriations, just keep things going without interruption. Now, there's the lack of a lot of policy changes as well. In general, a CR only addresses funding and does not include any significant policy changes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Now, sometimes Congress may add anomalies to a CR, which are specific adjustments or exceptions to normal funding rules to address unique circumstances. Now, the impact on government programs, a CR ensures that federal workers can keep on being working, blah, blah, blah, blah, away from a government shutdown. I always laugh at the government shutdown. Why are we afraid of government shutdowns?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Because then you can finally divide the federal government into essential and not essential workers. Now, if you watch the Charlie Kirk show carefully, remember, there's always an excuse as to why we can't cut spending. Always. Well, we're too close to an election is typically the excuse. Well, you can't possibly use that excuse right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
You can't possibly say we are the farthest that you humanly can possibly be from an election. But now it's the excuse that drives me mad. The excuse is, oh, it's Christmas time and we need to go home. It's Christmas time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Now, the best possible argument for why you pass a CR, or at least you try to get a clean slate, this is what they're saying, is that we need to make sure the president does not inherit President Trump, inherit a government shutdown, and that the president can get his initial policy agenda items like immigration passed in the first place. That's not a stupid argument.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
But what is indefensible, what is... just complete rubbish is the idea that you could not work through Christmas to get a better version of the budget. And so it's everybody's favorite time of the year. The house of representative yesterday, house of representatives rushed a 1,500 page spending bill. Nobody has read, and nobody understands.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
You know, something I really want clarity on is the logistics of this. Who wrote this, and who has been writing this? I want to meet that human being. In what office are they housed? I mean, 1,500 pages. I mean, Blake helped with Right-Wing Revolution. I mean, that 1,500 pages is a lot. That is a lot of writing. Who's doing this? Are they using AI? I think they're using Copilot or ChatGPT.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Here's the other question. Did ChatGPT write the continuing resolution? The continuing resolution includes $100 billion in disaster relief and FEMA funding. It includes a random revision to laws governing pharmacy benefit managers. Now, maybe it's a good law, maybe it's not, but they're folding a massive spending bill instead of debating all of these things directly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
And again, I cannot reiterate this enough. If you are a member of Congress and you are just trying to go home for Christmas while bankrupting future generations with trillions of dollars of unnecessary spending, that is a bad reason. Okay, do a one-week CR. Do a one-week CR. Do a one-week CR and then keep on debating. That's what CRs were designed in the first place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
CRs were always designed to give you an extra week to allow negotiations to keep going for two weeks. The CR includes... That the federal government must pay 100% of rebuilding the cost of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which collapsed. Obviously, a ship collided with it in Maryland. The bill gives control of the land containing the RFK Stadium in D.C. back to D.C. itself.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Why is that part of emergency spending bill? I don't know. Oh, and also, just to kind of stick the knife in and twist it, this is the one that bothers me the most. It raises Congress's pay. to $243,000 a year. It went up from $174,000 a year to $243,000 a year. How many of you right now would love a pay increase of that magnitude? Would love a $70,000 pay increase? That's a big pay increase.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
$174,000 to $243,000? Chip Roy has called this a crap sandwich. Eric Burleson says it's a dumpster fire. Now, look, I've been very busy at Mar-a-Lago, so I've been following all of these details. Been in and out of stuff in Palm Beach. I don't know how this mess suddenly emerged in the last couple of days. But trust me, even members of Congress are feeling blindsided in some way.

What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
And again, I am all on the team. I am team clean slate. The president must have a clean slate so that he is not inheriting Joe Biden's legislative problems. I think that is smart. I think that is justifiable. However, this rush that we are going to force feed another CR is not defensible. So instead, it should have been the following.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
We're going to do a one-week continuing resolution or a two-week continuing resolution, and we're going to negotiate all through over Christmas. We're going to do Christmas in Congress. We're going to order a bunch of pizzas. And as I mentioned last year during that same spending palooza that happened, how many of you in this audience that are nurses, police officers—
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
that are working in urgent care, that are doctors, have worked on Christmas. And yet Congress, it's like an incomprehensible reality that as a U.S. Senator or as a member of the House that you must show up and work. But they are increasing their pay by 28% from $174,000 a year to $243,000 a year. So instead what should have happened
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
is they should have said, we're going to keep negotiating, we're going to cut spending, we're not going to just keep on doing business as usual, and if you miss Christmas, well, the country is more important than that. It just is. But this is just more business as usual, and the taxpayers get hosed.

I've not seen that. That is excellent. Here's the difference. Well, it's not even a difference. I mean, look, CNN wants to pay their executives $9 million a year. They're a private corporation. They have every right to be able to do that. Dick Durbin is supposed to work for the people of Illinois. He's supposed to be a public servant. And Dick Durbin's a liar. He knew this pay increase was coming.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
That whole thing was a shtick. That was all a bunch of BS. By the way, a state of Illinois that is in debt, losing population, is a laughingstock, and is an open war zone. Dick Durbin says, oh, we haven't got our COLA and we haven't gotten our pay increase. And you wonder, Dick Durbin, why people hate you. You wonder why there has been this populist revolt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
You wonder why the citizens have been rising up against the entrenched oligarchy. Let's go to the CR right here. Let's go to cut 53, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
Right. OK, so let me let me first agree with the first part of what Speaker Johnson says. And then the rest, I couldn't be more opposed. He is right. The agenda should be to give President Trump a clean slate. President Trump should not inherit the Joe Biden legislative problems. However, it's a little bit misleading because you can still fight in this session.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
That does not mean you have to capitulate or surrender. So both those things can simultaneously be true. While you're saying we want to eventually clear the deck, you could say, hey, we're going to do a one-week government shutdown. We're going to do a one-week government shutdown, and we are going to try to get some concessions. We're going to try to get some spending cuts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
And we're going to take this week by week, and by the time the new Congress gets sworn in on January 3rd, then we will have a clean slate. At least do some of the leverage that you have. And also, work through Christmas. Work through the Christmas season.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
I cannot be more perplexed why the members of Congress feel as if they are immune from working weekends, working evenings, and working through Christmas. So while, yes, we do want to make sure President Trump does not have poison pills of a government past, I also kind of just shrug my shoulders and say— Okay, now March. I mean, if you had a very powerful timeline, is all the people in D.C.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What's a "CR," and Why is This One So Bad?
We'll be spending a lot more time than I would like in D.C., but duty calls, everybody. It is the price of victory, as they call it.

Not healthy for the country, but probably the right constitutional decision. Okay. So if you – that's the issue with the Supreme Court is you can't judge the effects always as much as the interpretation. Yeah. is because a true justice should judge based on the intent of the law, not just what they think it will do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But I think it's deeply unhealthy that we have billions of dollars flowing through super PACs and we have to see this ridiculous TV advertising all the time. I don't think it's healthy for the country at all.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But if you go back to the Supreme Court decision, the reason it was decided the way it was is because it was under speech where they asked, they said, well, what if Charlie Kirk writes a book against Kamala Harris?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Is that considered political speech? And they said, yes. So that right. It's a gray area, isn't it? I mean, I should be able to write a book. Right. But they say, no, it's something of value. It's no different than a political advertisement. And so that so it was the right decision, but a bad outcome for the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I feel like it poisons our democracy in the context. Well, yeah. Again, I don't love the term democracy, even though I use it every so often. But yes, it poisons our elections. I think that. Because we're not a democracy. We're a republic. But yes, for sure. I'm not trying to nitpick. But I think what it does is it makes politicians far more obedient to their donors than people on both sides.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
And just so we're clear, the Democrat Party, they have hated Citizens United, but now they use it better than Republicans. Democrats raise more money. They have more TV ads. And because they wanted to win and they've now become the party. But both sides use it, though. Well, Democrats raise way more money than Republicans now. But yes, both sides do.
The Charlie Kirk Show

First of all, welcome to the conservative movement, but I want to be clear. I don't agree with your lifestyle, and I don't think you should introduce yourself just based on your sexual attractions. No, I agree. Because that's not who you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
For sure.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I think you're actually way more interesting based on your sexual tendencies, right? Yes. So I think we should get away from this idea that your identity is based on your bedroom behavior. You are a complete human being, and I'm sure you treat people well, and you're studying something. So I want to get away with this idea that you're gay anything, right? First, you should say I'm a conservative.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I also have same-sex attraction. That's fine. I just think that we have gone a long way in the negative direction in this country where we act as if the most important part of your identity is –
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
what you do in the bedroom it doesn't mean that much to me but if you ask from a perspective as a christian and conservative i i don't agree with that lifestyle but politics is about addition and multiplication i imagine you agree with a lot of what we talk about absolutely right strong borders strong country and for that you know we welcome you to the conservative movement thank you could i get a hat yes you can absolutely thank you yes question
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, I think that's a great question. I think that him bringing RFK in is is the closest you're going to get. Right. Donald Trump said he'll do stuff differently. RFK was a huge critic of Operation Warp Speed, which, granted, was something we've never seen before, which was that the administrative state took over the entire health apparatus of a country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
We never should have locked down this country. We never should have mandated masks. We never should have mandated vaccines. And I think Donald Trump bringing RFK into the fold is the closest thing that we're going to see to making sure it never happens again, because that's really what matters, right? Outside of an apology, RFK around Donald Trump is the greatest thing
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
shot in the arm, get it, of those of us that want to make sure that Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson will not run this country and that we can hopefully make America healthy again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, of course. Absolutely. I mean, to be perfectly honest, I'm very hesitant of the COVID vaccine. And you should be. I mean, look at the track record. Get your ninth booster. It's safe and effective. Yeah, okay, great. So... Yeah, I mean, I think that other we should question a lot of vaccines, to be honest with you. I mean, why we give babies the hepatitis B vaccine is insane.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No one can answer that question. We just do it automatically. The first thing a baby does, they come out of the mother's birth canal. You put you put eye ointment on their eyes unnecessarily unless the mom has gonorrhea. And then we give the baby a hepatitis B vaccine unless the mom has a sexually transmitted disease. It's completely unnecessary. So I think other things should be questioned.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There's other vaccines that are great and those should obviously be celebrated and looked at. But that's a topic that is largely forbidden from public discourse. I just wanted to be clear.

Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
on chinese imports um what do you think is the best course of action what's your opinion should the government be involved well yeah i mean we we should not allow the importing of of chinese electric cars i mean i think we should have much heavier tariffs on chinese products um i mean we have a great american uh electric vehicle manufacturer tesla i we and that we should we should teslas should all be made here they make a lot of teslas in china unfortunately but they should be made here
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Because we do subsidize, too. Yes. Which I'm not in favor of. But the tariffs are they could be called a subsidy, but they're technically not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, that's a good question. Probably. But I mean, we've seen the electric vehicle mandate done by Biden. It was a complete disaster. The big three auto manufacturers have not been able to compete with Tesla on the electric vehicle front, even with even with a fair amount of low tariffs on Chinese imports. OK, thank you. Thank you. Appreciate it.

opinions yeah no i mean just have a meritocracy right so you have three white men around you you can see one two three so if one supports affirmative no it's okay if one supports affirmative action right it would mean that you would be okay turning to those three men and saying i deserve the position more than you based on something that doesn't matter more than necessarily i feel like that's one facet of it that we're not also paying attention to is that people that are graduating are graduating from the same schools they're graduating with the same degrees with lower test scores though much lower
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Every study affirmative action, for example, the Harvard case, showed that it was nearly 40% lower test scores for people of color versus their white male counterparts and Asian counterparts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Why? Yeah. What causes that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, of course not. People of color come from lower socioeconomic backgrounds that don't prioritize education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
That's an interesting point. Not should we try to... penalize white males that are competent to go run our systems and our institutions. So those are two different things. So what we're doing is our institutions are now becoming less excellent
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Our country is not working like it used to because we basically told people that are very qualified and very competent that, sorry, we're not going to put a position for you here. For example, the U.S. Secret Service. Let me just give you one example. OK, we can all agree that protecting a president, whether it's Donald Trump or Kamala Harris, is super important. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But now the Secret Service has said that we want to have 30 percent of all our agents be women, which, by the way, they have lower fitness criteria. So they have less pull-ups, less push-ups, slower mile time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
you deal with the current situation in Israel um boy that's a great question uh you you got to try to get peace um you got you got to try to get the hostages out um I'm very I'm very sympathetically pro-Israel I have some disagreements in Netanyahu on some stuff in fact I've picked some fights with the Israeli government on some stuff um but I also have no I have no patience for anti-Semitism on either side I just don't I think it's disgusting and it's wrong um
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Exactly. Yeah, no, no. But this is affirmative action, right? And so therefore when... Well, there's like fields.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
That's an interesting question. So I think it should be something that's more like... Will women be as good at engineering as men person for person? Not necessarily, but... Okay, well then, how is that different than the Secret Service example? Well, the problem is that... Because the male mind is wired differently than the female mind.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
By the way, men will never be as good... Hold on, I'll prove it to you. Men will never be as good at counseling or psychology sessions as women. Men will never be good at nursing or elementary school education as women. Okay. We have certain giftings as our brain is wider a certain way. Women are far better gifted at micro topics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So individual connection, empathetic type conversations, healing people that are past trauma and wound. Men are much better at macro topics, right? Trying to build a building, put a skyscraper up, trying to talk geopolitics. And I'll prove it to you. When you go and you see five women eating lunch, they're probably talking about micro topics. conversations they had, relationships, friendships.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Men, they're talking about politics, sports, or the stock market.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Oh, yes. You guys all agree, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
These are bimodal general truths, right? Of course there's exceptions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Of course they do, but it's not the general wiring or nature of women.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Wait a second. But do you think that men and women are made different in our brains?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Like what things?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So you don't think that men are more likely to like contact sports, more likely to enjoy football, UFC, hunting?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
The least you guys can do is come and enjoy and celebrate. We got Tucker Carlson.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, come on. You're smarter than that. That's not true. Hold on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Of course. Yeah. So that's an example of women that don't do that. And there are men that dress in drag, but those are not the general truth of it. So let me just be clear. You think that there's nothing within the female brain in its constitution that makes young ladies more likely— I mean, being that I'm an engineer, I don't think so.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Really?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I mean, I feel like there's... So you think if you pick a random lady here that they'd be just as comfortable sitting and watching a four-hour football game than they were to go get their hair done with their best girlfriend?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Is it diminishing to say a man wouldn't want to go get his hair done? No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Not really. It's like 10 minutes in and out, like barbershop.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But the point, again, there are certain things that women will take more. For example, women will take a lot longer getting ready for the day than men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Right? Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, no, no, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But there's something in your wiring.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But you wouldn't feel comfortable wearing makeup?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But why do you do it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, I know. But that's the point is that at some point you wear makeup because there's something within your wiring that says I want to be presentable to the world. And that wiring honestly is I want to find a mate to have children.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There's not a good solution. The only solution I could see, be perfectly honest with you, is to get Egypt and Jordan to actually do their part to take the people of Gaza. But they don't want them. And so you have to use American power and American hegemony to basically say, hey, Jordan, you guys are going to take a couple million refugees. Egypt, you're going to take a couple million refugees.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
It's not actually really important because I don't think there's any differences between races. But I think that when it comes to affirmative action, we're saying that there are differences.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
That we're trying to say that things that don't matter should matter. So I don't think race matters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I think that's even more dangerous, to be honest with you. If we're going to say that women should be Secret Service agents protecting Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, hold on. Okay, so should we try to have the same amount of female to male OBGYNs?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Hold on. 85% of all OBGYNs are female.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So now should we have parity so that men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
That's not the point. The point is, should we have parity?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So you're consistent. So women studying in the OBGYN field will be actively discriminated against. So a man can because we must have parity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
What does that have to do with.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Or support society. I don't think it was always just about supporting men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So I just don't believe that, first of all, because research will go where the money is. And so was there money in endometriosis research?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So maybe it wasn't sexism. Maybe it was a monetary explanation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Actually, women control more money than men in the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Do you think it's been a better thing with women's liberation the last 20, 30 years?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
That's interesting. Do you think women are happier in America today than they were 30 years ago?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Then why are they the most depressed group in the history of the species?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Women are the most suicidal, addicted to antidepressants.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, no, no. Women are far more suicidal. Men are more successful in committing suicide. Big difference. When men commit suicide, they're much better at it. Women have far more suicidal ideation than men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But why is it that with women being liberated the last 50 years, women are the most miserable they've ever been? Like, why is that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, I'm asking. I'm asking the answer. But it's like more liberation, more college degrees, more birth control, less marriage, less kids.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Everybody agrees that women are super miserable versus 30 years ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Or maybe it's because they're not doing the one thing that they want to do, which is to get married and have children. I don't know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Other than that, there really isn't a solution because you have two sides that are at irreconcilable odds right now. But you know what the issue is? When Donald Trump was president, we had more peace between Israel and its neighbors than any time in any of your lifetimes. And so Donald Trump had peace in the Middle East, and he will deliver peace in the Middle East once again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, so type in women antidepressant use 2024. It is the highest it has ever been.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So but I just I'm just curious. So do you think women are generally happier in 2024 than they were in 1964? Yes. Really?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
What rights did they not have in 1964?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Where? Before 1964.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, that was outlawed in 1918.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, first of all, they were able to own homes. You're talking about redlining, which is a completely different thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yes, in the last state, which was where?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I think it's shocking.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, it's amazing. If you think women and people are happier today than they were 50 or 60 years ago, It's remarkable. It's just objectively not true.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
1967?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There's no way that is true.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There's no way it's true in every state. I don't know what to tell you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, you can't just say that's not true and just say, oh, like you're trying to tell me in the state of Wisconsin, you could not interracially marry in 1964.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Is that right? I mean, I think that's. Yeah, it's just like that's not even close to be true. Yeah, I'm sure there were some southern states where it might have been true.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, but no. OK, so affirmative action. Let me ask you a question. What should matter more, race or merit?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So what should matter more, race or merit?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Do you think there's any risk that we might have institutions that aren't as excellent?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yes, you can.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
So let me let me play this out. And then this will be my last question. If you are boarding an airplane and your pilot introduces herself, she says, I'm a pilot. I'm a black woman. I graduated last my class, but I'm here because of diversity. How would you feel?

If your heart surgeon showed up and said, hey... You have to have certifications.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
As I say, every time affirmative action is employed, standards go down. Every single example. Every example. From Harvard to the UC system, there is not a single example where affirmative action is employed and standards are not brought down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Okay, thank you very much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There's no problem to fix. Pure meritocracy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Oh, yeah. I mean like I don't care that much about – I care about excellence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Not that important to me. I want the country once had, which was the greatest country ever, where we put excellence and we put superior intellect above like sensitive racial politics. Not interesting to me because it was a bunch of white men that were like running the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I'm just like, that's fine. I mean, but when we used to have a country that was based on merit, we were more successful and we were a better run country and we're objectively not now. I'm just saying that in engineering, we can't even protect a president from getting shot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
OK, thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, I was going to say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, well, you lied to get a hat. That shows your character.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I said only if you vote, but that's fine. All right, next question. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, first of all, welcome to the Republican Party. You are welcome here. And I think it's terrific. So. Number number one, I wanted number two on to say that you're right. Kamala Harris should have picked Josh Shapiro. It was the better choice for her ticket. The only reason she did not pick Josh Shapiro is because he's a Jew.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There is no other reason. Yes, I think it is a trend. I think that Jews need to realize the Democrat Party is not a safe place for them at all. But it is at odds with their first of all, their love of the state of Israel, of which I share. And secondly, and I think thirdly and most importantly, is that the American Jewish community has long had an attachment with the American Democrat Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
You know, that's very, very hard to break. Right. I hope it does, because we as conservatives, Republicans and Trump supporters welcome Jewish Americans coming into our ranks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
God bless. Thank you. Yes, you can. Absolutely. Yes. Yeah. I'll sign it. Yes, sir.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
No, I think it's great. First of all, the grammar was wrong, because that really bothered me. Did you notice that the grammar was incorrect? Yeah, yeah. I am not a Tim Walls fan at all, but yeah, if Tim Walls can't even get the support of his own family, it's a big issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah, I mean, look, to be fair, like parts of Trump's family have turned against him. So but to have that many members of the family was pretty, pretty aggressive. Yeah. Thank you. You bet. Yes. Yes. Yes, you can. Yes. By the way, young women get priority on the hat because we need more young women Trump supporters. Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
It should die down at some point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
If Kamala is elected, you could see World War III. If Trump is elected, he will bring peace to the Middle East and bring peace between Russia and Ukraine. Because when Trump was president, we had peace. Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, we have more war, more suffering, more refugees. And it's a disgrace for all people involved. And to be clear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I have a heart for the people of Gaza that are suffering right now. And it's a war that many of them did not invite. And so I hope that we can have some sort of reconciliation and some sort of peace settlement that satisfies both sides. Awesome, man. Thank you so much. God bless. Thank you. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, yeah, first, the rape case was a civil case, not a criminal case, right? Yeah, I know, civilly liable. Yeah, so – but – He didn't do it. I don't know what else to say. I mean, the evidence was so insane, was so ridiculous. It was a woman that said, oh, yeah, Donald Trump put me in a closet in Tiffany's and raped me. I mean, it was so ridiculous.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
And of course, it was a jury that was highly politically motivated in charge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But hold on. Just so we understand, 34 counts of fraud. I encourage you to read the indictment. Can you tell me what the crime was, though? I believe some of them had to do with the Hashmani case. Right. But no. But what was he covering? No, no one knows because they made up a crime. Right. Because they said that he was trying to conceal a crime. in the pursuit of the crime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I can get into the details of this, but let me just ask you a question. Do you think that there is anything to the argument?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Right, falsifying business records. Is that a felony? I mean, it's fraud, yeah. Oh, is it a felony? No, it's not. He upgraded it for the first time in New York State history as a felony. Why? Because his name is Donald Trump. That's why.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Well, falsifying business records, I mean, if anybody runs a small business and you put $35 instead of $32... Trump's not a small business owner.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
and more at amfest.com you might be able to meet your future husband your future wife your best friends you're going to be so fired up it is a celebration unlike any other our annual event america fest is held december 19 20 21 22 at the phoenix convention center those who attend this once in a lifetime four-day event will hear from dozens of the nation's top speakers as i just mentioned network with thousands of like-minded attendees and 100 plus partnering organizations
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
OK, first of all, if you are a small business owner, you do that. You put thirty five dollars out of thirty thirty six dollars. They could get you for falsifying business records. And the thirty four counts, each one of the counts was like on each check that he wrote. So it's not as if there was like this big, broad conspiracy. But like, let's just be as clear as we can.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Do you let me ask you a question, actually. Do you think that there's anything to the argument Donald Trump's being unfairly targeted because his name is Donald Trump?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
OK, definitely. Yes, because if anyone gets under that kind of examination and everything you do in your life, every transaction, every conversation that they're going to be able to find something that they can get on you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But do you think that there's some merit to that? I do. OK, good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Do you think that any other politician has received the scrutiny he's received?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Yeah. I mean, no. And again, I can go into the details of why I think that is politically charged, politically motivated. But I it is at some point we had a tradition in this country that if you are a former president, we're not going to throw the examination of justice against you because it's just really unhealthy and damaging to the country. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I mean, even those of us that thought Hillary Clinton committed a lot of crimes, we were OK with her not getting investigated at some point because we thought it would damage the country. At some point, because we were like, OK, she definitely committed crimes, but if they're not going after her because we don't want to try to further sever the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
With Donald Trump indicted in four different jurisdictions on four different things, it's very clear that they're trying to interfere with the presidential election. They being the Justice Department. Yeah. And the Democrat Party. Right. And this is what third world dictatorships do. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
I mean, in Russia, we got so mad when they put the opposition leader in jail and he died in jail because he wasn't able to speak out. Right. And so without getting into the details of the case, of which I think they are meritless and a lot of legal scholars agree. I think we need to take a step back and say, is it real?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Is it healthy long term for us as a country to be able to put the ascendant political opposition leader in jail when he's very popular and he's not in jail? Well, he's being sentenced in two weeks, potentially. And just to be clear, I would also agree probably should not be in jail. But I think the.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But morally speaking, he's facing 700 years in prison. Right. And so just so we're clear, very unlikely that he's actually going to be put in Well, hold on. But that's you might be. I think you're right. But that's not the argument, though, because the justice system is supposed to be blind regardless of who you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
And if there's something deeply disturbing when someone is about to either he's building a move, you might not like him at all, but he's building a movement. A lot of Americans like him and a lot of people show up to his events and a lot of people believe in him. And like, no, we're going to indict you. What does that say for democracy? Right. Right. You know what I mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
Like, what does that say for the everyday person who thinks he's the right choice? And if you think he should go in jail and those people shouldn't vote for him, then you think those people are stupid. Not you. But like if that if that's the perspective and they say, oh, we know better than the welder who likes Trump or we know better than the college kid that likes Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
And so for the health and the vitality of the country, the Democrats should have resisted the temptation of indicting him and putting him in prison. Instead, he's had to beat it. He has bought he's beat some of these cases, thankfully. And but it's and on the civil case. Right. On the fraud case, he repaid all of his debts. Just so we're clear. So who's the victim? Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
There's no victim when you repay all your debts. They're saying, oh, the state of New York is the victim. What I'm getting at is there's a great quote by Cicero, who is the one to one year Roman council. He said, the more laws, the less justice. And if you are in charge, you have all these laws. You show me the man. I'll show you the crime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
And it's a tragedy because with Donald Trump, they fear his movement so much and they fear that he'll become president. They're willing to do something that they've never done before, which is try to put a former president in jail. Is that persuasive at all to you or? Not really, but I got your argument. I definitely understand your argument. Okay, thanks. All right. Thank you. Yep. All right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin

Mostly the Charlie Kirk show is where I get most of my information. I love Tucker's show, the Tucker Carlson podcast. I like citizenfreepress.com. Realclearpolitics.com is great. I try to go to original source documents. I try to watch the least amount of television news as possible. I try to read my news more than I watch my news. Listening and reading your news is far better way than watching.

Yeah, I think affirmative action is racist, wrong, and against – and it's unconstitutional. So it's immoral.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
And should be unconstitutional.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
But also, isn't it kind of insulting to you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
It treats you like you're stupid, right?

I mean, look, my advice to her is as sinister as it sounds, like use it. Right. I mean, she right. If she works really hard, plus being a person of color, she could go to Princeton. Right. And here's the reality. There is a white male next to you right now. He has to get much higher test scores than your sister to go into a graduate school.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gay Conservatives and Jew-Hating Liberals: More Charlie at the University of Wisconsin
We both agree that's evil. That's wrong. What are we doing? That's racism. And also, again, it acts as if he being a white male is inherently smarter than you. And that's, of course, not the case. We don't know who's smarter. In fact, that's the whole point of the American project is that we shouldn't be able to judge just based on your skin color.

My advice for your sister is try to fight against affirmative action, but in the short term, use it because the laws and the system is currently configured to help her.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Wall Street Journal writes, Justin Trudeau nears the end in Canada. By the way, we tweeted this out on X and then people were mocking at first. Turns out we were a little ahead of the curve. Our Canadian sources are very good. So just kind of educate our audience here because every country has different setups. What is the current composition of how you form a government in Canada?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And get even more elementary than that, what does it mean to form a government? Educate our American audience, please.

Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. If you ever had a doubt that there's a war on the unborn, you now know beyond a doubt that is the case. It'd be easy to give up, but you know I'll never give up on giving the truth to girls and women who the other side want to choose death for their baby.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
I'm standing for life no matter what the other side says, and we're going to save more babies than ever before to show them that truth will win out. It can only be shared with girls and women who will make the right choice. Preborn provides free ultrasounds to girls and women. It's the truth that they deserve, and it doubles the chance that she'll choose life.
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And in the midst of all this, Justin Trudeau decided the day after American Thanksgiving to fly down to Mar-a-Lago to sit down and to kiss the ring of the president-elect after a tariff threat. Is it too far to say that President Trump's tariff threat might have played a role in the disassembling of the Canadian government?

President Trump's first visit to America Fest, play cut 24.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And she has a powerful and honestly infuriating story to share with you. Mary, welcome to the program. Mary, you're from the tri-state area in New York. Tell us your story of being a volleyball player. What's going on?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
That is AmericaFest.com. One last thing we want to talk about here in just the couple minutes we have remaining. I was just in Aurora, Colorado. Actually, that's not true. I was in Columbine, Colorado, right near it. And there was a woman that showed up there. And you could hear this on the Charlie Kirk exclusive, members.charliekirk.com. And she was nearly in tears. We had this amazing event.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
It was in the Columbine Littleton area, southwestern Denver. And she says, Charlie, when we were out to dinner one night, six Tren de Aragua people came in and completely burglarized their house, took everything. And did some really, really graphic, terrible things that I can't even share on air. Thankfully, no one was hurt. No one was there. FBI showed up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And the FBI agent who showed up had they, them pronouns on their business card. They, them pronouns was the FBI agent. The FBI agent called back and said, sorry, your stuff will never be found. And basically, you should stop trying. This is happening all across the country. Play cut 28.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
I think Tom Holman should do Aurora first. I think as soon as we get sworn in, Tom Holman should set up a operating center in Aurora. I think he should have a command center in Aurora. I think he should have the whole thing, and just make this the test case. Bring everyone in and get it done. I think Tom Holman's sending two weeks in Aurora.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
I'm going to recommend this at AmericaFest when I see him. You know, get sworn in, all the inauguration stuff. Fly out. Fly out with ICE. Fly out with DHS. Ground zero. All the cameras going. National press conference. And say, there's a new sheriff in town. And make Aurora the test case. And we want perp walks of every single one of these criminals. Some of these gangs are like a trained militia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And our people are ready to go. Our government officials are ready to go. apartment complex by apartment complex, unit by unit, liberate the city of Aurora and perp walks. We want to see the pictures of every one of these thugs on cable TV. What is cable going to say that by the way, as a first Aurora, what are they going to say? Oh, you know, they're going after these little girls.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
No, no, no, no. These are enemy gangs occupying our country. I think Aurora should be the first visit for the new administration. Thanks so much for listening. Everybody email us as always freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.

So, Mary, I have a question. So, I mean, this is almost numbing in some ways. And I can imagine you feel very violated. So this individual, did you go to school with him? Did you know him? Because it seems as if he was a little bit of a stranger in your life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Yeah, it does. So I just a very simple moral question. Why did your coach put up with this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
So your other teammates who obviously saw the injustice of this, I'm sure there were a lot of whispers and people that were afraid. Of your teammates, what percentage would you say thought that this was perfectly normal, that a biological man can be on the female volleyball team?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
No, that's OK. So and it seems as if when you appealed to authority, the school district, they didn't they weren't that interested in fixing it. You being a Turning Point USA leader, obviously speaking out, God bless you for your courage. Were you called a lot of names and were you told to sit down and shut up to be more accepting throughout this process?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Of course. How has this experience strengthened you? And what is the greatest lesson now that you've been through this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Mary, we're going to be seeing you in Phoenix at America Fest, and I hope all the viewers here know that this is the type of student that we have at Turning Point USA, fighting for liberty and freedom every single day. You've been nominated as a finalist for Patriot of the Year. That will be decided at America Fest. Mary, final thoughts to our national audience here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And for people that are dealing with this in their local communities, what should they do?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Mary, God bless you. We will see you in Phoenix and you deserve better. And day one, President Trump will make good on his promise. Only women in women's sports and federal funding will not go to any institution that supports that. So your local school district better sharpen up or else they're going to get a letter from the Department of Education. Thank you, Mary.

Do you have the fortitude? Do you have the resolve? Do you have the willingness to solve the problem? That is the only question that is in front of us. And if, yes, you have the fortitude to solve the problem, then the solutions can flow. Argentina was known as a messed up, forever damaged country. It's a country of debtors. It is sinking under its own weight. Stagflation, hyperinflation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
They aren't even able to export beef anymore. A once proud, wealthy miracle in South America had become just a sickened husk of its former self. It had multiple debt crises, triple digit inflation. It was a joke. Argentina was a Marxist failed project in South America. It used to be one of the richest countries on the planet, ruined with leftist policies.

Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Now, how do you fix it with committees and with think tanks like the traditional Bush McCain way of viewing the Republican Party? No, you have to have the energy, the spirit, the grit, the capacity. The agency to just do the thing. You don't need more committees and more bureaucracy, and you certainly don't need permission.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Remember this clip of Javier Mele, who I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting? We couldn't understand each other. It was hilarious. He doesn't speak good English. However, I said one thing to him. He started laughing. I said, I said, afuera, and he laughs. He goes, okay, something. Play cut 41.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
We're done with it. Department of Education, afuera. Transgender surgeries for minors, afuera. Now, understand that Malay was attacked by everybody. But in a huge win for Argentina's populist leader, the country, Argentina, has now beaten the recession that was originally triggered by his cuts to government spending and is now growing at a dramatic 3.9% pace.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
The country's stock market, meanwhile, up 174% this year. Monthly inflation has dropped from 25% to less than 3%. First El Salvador, now Argentina. Brave right-wing leaders are doing the stuff elite progressives say, oh, you can't do that, and are immediately and dramatically improving their countries. This is masculine energy versus kind of low-energy energy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
Let's just say malaise and beta male energy. This is we're going to do it. Who are you to tell me I can't do that? I get rid of the department. We're going to cut spending. Yeah, there'll be a recession. Fine, whatever. It'll be short and then it will get great. There will be pain and then it will be lovely. The country needed radical surgery or it would stagnate forever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And you see the low energy beta males that have run Western governments like Justin Trudeau, who actually might have his days numbered. We have a great guest on that coming up. They trap you because politicians don't have the stomach for every pain and they want to be liked. That is a quality that is not exactly masculine in nature. But sometimes you got to take the cough syrup. It's awful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
And then you feel better. The economy crashed when communism ended in Eastern Europe too. But now Argentina is becoming this beautiful beacon again. It's got a long way to go, a lot of crime, but incredible people, high capacity, very intelligent, a lot of spirit. And now President Trump is going to have another partner in South America to work with.

Donald Trump Liberates...Canada?
El Salvador, the safest country in the Western Hemisphere, used to be the most dangerous. It requires the will of a leader willing to push through the permanent bureaucracy. And Viva Free is coming up to talk about another country that needs some serious cough medicine. Oh, Canada. Because in Canada, they have lost their way so dramatically. Can Canada be saved? Maybe. Maybe. Anything is possible.

Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Yeah, so I know the area quite well. Did you go to middle school there?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
So I know your neighborhood very well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Well, you're already doing it. I mean, look, just so everyone understands my perspective. If you have to go to college, you know, go to the least expensive option available and get through as quickly as possible. But my opinion is that they're not just my opinion. The data shows there's millions of jobs that are open that don't require a college degree.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Fair argument. Thank you. So the Department of Education was formed in 1979. Do you think it's done a good job of improving educational standards for kids in this country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
So fair question. So what you're saying is from a more conservative slant, probably, that a federal student, a department of education that actually mandates the right things from the top down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Sounds great. Let me tell you why, A, that won't happen and why, B, I think that's a bad idea. So even though it sounds conceptually right, A, anything that starts in D.C. with a good intention will be taken over by. the cancer, the woke tumor and the woke cancer. It metastasizes and envelops the entire thing, even if it has a really good intent. I'll give you a great example.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
We have this huge fight right now in the Department of Defense trying to get rid of all the woke stuff in the Marines and the Air Force. If we can't keep the Marines from becoming woke, we have no chance of the Department of Education ever not becoming in that way. And just by the actual fiber of what education is, more people on the left gravitate into that space.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Now, let me agree with you before I kind of get into the second point. The biggest problem with education, which is why we should get rid of the Department of Education, is it's not the Department of Education. It's the Department of Administrators. And this is what's very important. This is not a war on teachers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
There are 11 million people in America that are in government, that are in jobs, in government, taxpayer funded, in education. If you were to guess, how many would you say are teachers? 30%? Yeah, so that's almost correct. You're right. So about 7 million, about 6.7 million of the 11 million are administrators.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
We need more plumbers, electricians, welders. I think we need more people that are entrepreneurs and less people just with college degrees. But look, you're all in college. You're all kind of part of this institution. Just understand that half of you guys, when you graduate college, if you get a job, will get a job that doesn't require a college degree.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
And most of our education money goes towards paper pushers, career counselors, people that fill in paperwork unnecessarily. We're not even supporting the teachers on the front lines. So that's the biggest problem, is we have become an administrative heavy education model. And what has that meant for our kids?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Since the advent of private education, as you agree, standards have gone down, literacy has gone down, math and reading has gone down. In fact, most kids in public education, I want you guys to think about this, in high school, have not read an entire book cover to cover. Do you guys agree with that? And I know that might, when parents hear that, it's so shocking.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Most kids, when they are in, by a junior or senior in school, have not read, they'll read snippets, you guys know that, they have readers, right? You know, a chapter of this. They have not read an entire book cover to cover. Let me go to my second argument why I think it's a bad idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I don't think it's constitutional or in the role of government to get involved in the most intimate thing, which is education. And this is why I think our view of education is wrong. You guys look at education probably because you've been taught as just, hey, get here so you can get a job.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
In the ideal sense, education should be about the growth of the soul and should be about the nurturing of good citizens, which is completely different than just career preparation. The view I have of education, which is what the founders had, which only very few people have, is that you guys should be here to read really old good books, understand ancient philosophy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
to become a well-rounded citizen of what is good, true, and beautiful, and then you could do any job once you graduate. The hyper-specialization of our education system has been dreadful. So do you have private student loan debt, or do you know someone who does that you really care about? Someone you might have had dinner recently or breakfast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
They say, I just can't get out of private student loan debt. Now, it's different than federal student loan debt, but a lot of people have private student loans, about $300 billion. And in fact, if you have private student loans, you're more likely to be older. The older you are, the more likely you are to have a private student loan. It's before the federal government took it all over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Why ReFi can get you out. It's not a debt settlement company, and they work with each borrower individually, tailoring each loan to each borrower's specific situation. Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless, and they've even lost hope. Why ReFi gives you a light at the end of the tunnel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
If your private student loan debt is keeping you up at night and ruining your life, it doesn't have to. Just call YRefi. Go to YRefi.com, call 888-YRefi34, or log on to YRefi.com. You don't have to ignore that mountain of student loan statements on your kitchen table anymore. If you have a co-borrower, YRefi can get them released from the loan. You can give mom or dad a break.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
So half of people that go to college end up not even using the college degree. But as a social worker, honestly, my biggest advice for you is that hold on to your conservative principles even when you go into social work. Social work is super, super left-wing, as you well know. You're probably learning it throughout.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
It may not be available in all states, so go to YRefi.com. That is YRefi.com. Let me get to the Constitution, and I'd love to get your response. Constitutionally, I think we have made too many exceptions of the government should do this, the government should do that. If we look at Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, it enumerates 17 things that government can do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Education, federally, is not one of them. And it doesn't even do it well. And I think it's led to this bloat of federal agencies that shouldn't exist. And so finally, let's go back to that coal miner example. That's a really good example in one way. But at the other way, we should not impose on certain communities what values they should learn or not learn.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
And usually what happens is we know it's left-wing ideology that then gets imposed on local Christian communities or conservative communities that might have a different view. So what is your opinion on all that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
So my suggestion is we don't have to think too deeply about it. We already know what that looks like, which is that the states should run the education as they see fit. and the federal government should remove because we know back in the 50s, 60s, or 70s, we had much higher literacy rates, much better math scores. We've gone down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
We're like 26 now in education, yet we're spending $250 billion a year on the federal Department of Education, mostly on administrative paperwork. So I think we need to empower more families. And the final thing I'll say is school choice, allowing parents to be able to send their – and by the way, Florida has one of the most robust school choice programs in the country –
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
And it works because competition education is a good thing. Final point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
And the reason being is this, is that when you're in social work, you are engrossed and surrounded by very sad stories, people that need help, people that need compassion. And automatically you think, well, we need a bigger government to help those people. Well, we as conservatives have a completely different perspective, that maybe instead of big government, we need big families.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
It's very well-funded at Thomas. It's very well-funded, yes. And let me just kind of, and then we'll go to the next question. It's well-funded for a reason because of very, very high taxes. Not great. I know the area well. But last point is the type of top-down involvement you want should happen on a state level. It should happen in Tallahassee, not in Washington, D.C. Let's get D.C.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
out of our education. Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Want a hat? Yeah. Great. Thank you. Next question. Disagreements if anyone's there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
So I want to make sure I'm understanding the question. Are you criticizing pro-lifers for making sure that the babies are born?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Okay, so there's a couple things wrong with your statement. The first of which, let's talk about the moral issue, which is why should a baby with Down syndrome have less human rights than you and I?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I know, I did say that. That's fine. So let's back up. Let me say then, let's say a blood test says that a kid has a congenital heart failure. Fair enough? Yeah. Now, according to the New York Times and many other studies, that's only about half true, meaning like many people in this audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I'm sure there's somebody here probably had a mom that got a test that said you were going to have a congenital heart failure. It turned out not to be true. So those tests are not nearly as accurate as you might think. Let's even pretend that they are accurate. OK, let me grant you that premise. Why should then that human not be given equal human rights, even if they get a terminal diagnosis?

And maybe instead of the government being strengthened, we need more dads in the home. And instead of growing the size of the state... We need more people to go to church and to believe in the divine and respect of the individual and the dignity of every human being. So we – that's correct. Jesus is Lord. You're right.

So that's an interesting moral argument that I want to try to flush out. By what standard it is okay to do something wrong that involves another suffering of another to alleviate suffering for yourself, to basically outsource your suffering to somebody else saying, I'm going to eliminate you because I might have a tough time. Why is that morally okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
No, it is a moral question. So I just want you to help me understand that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Help me understand why it would be morally defensible and okay to eliminate a life if that life might make my life harder.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I agree. Every human life deserves the right to be born.

But let me get to the second part of your argument, which is, A criticism of the pro-life movement. I would encourage you to immerse yourself more into the comprehensive work that pro-lifers do beyond just Birth Canal. It is a common talking point of a lot of people, not you, but on the left, that will say, oh, you're just pro-birth, not pro-life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
If you just go to a local church and you'll ask, hey, it's not just a pro-life ministry. There's family adoption ministries. They will give diaper care services. daycare, the whole nuts and bolts of actually helping a baby develop into a full human being. And so I would just kind of challenge that premise a little bit because it sounds cruel. Oh, you just want the baby born.

And so we share – we can share with a lot of social workers or in social work the need to help people that have less. In fact, we as Christians are called to do that.

Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
But look, you have to accept money from different coalitions of people. Are you glad Trump won?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
So in practice, how is Trump not governing as an outsider? He literally just fired 300,000 people in the last month. He got rid of USAID. He's ending the Russian-Ukrainian war.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Border crossings are down 95%. I mean, House is not an outsider.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I mean, but let's go through the list. Think about it. I mean, in every single element, the first term, he didn't get rid of USAID. First term, he didn't say he wanted to get rid of their private education. The first term, he did not say we're going to have the largest deportation effort ever of which we are doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I mean, we're actually seeing new and improved promises and fulfillment of the original Trump agenda.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Well, you mean the wall that Biden decided to deconstruct? I think what you're talking about is border crossings, which is more important, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Of which he largely did in his first term, disassembled under Biden. But the essence is border crossings, right? Because we want a wall to stop border crossings, right? So how many border crossings were there approximately last day of Biden's day in office? Tell me. No, guess. I don't know. You're putting him on the spot. Yeah, 11,000, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Wow. So we went from 11,000 to 124. So what President Trump has done, so obviously you care about stopping the flow of people coming into the country, right? Of course. So President Trump has now said from 11,000 to 124, 95% decrease, almost a 98% decrease. Okay. So he's doing through executive action the things that Biden refused to do. But, yeah, I think it's new and improved.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I think it's an exciting, amazing new administration. But I want you to be very clear and crisp. What are your objections to what he's doing versus 2015?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
He said the largest deportation force ever. in the history of America, of which we're seeing right now. Child rapists, child sex traffickers, and predators are being deported on a daily basis. And yes, by the way, the wall is being built. The biggest reason the wall was ever put into question was because of federal judges that were blocking the construction of the wall.

So he had to get more creative. You know what he's done in this term they didn't do the first term? He's mobilized the military to actually run the southern border, and he has designated the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations with use of lethal force actions against them.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So it feels if you're trying to find complaints against him, I'm trying to understand where you're coming from, because this Trump 2.0 is 100 times better than the first Trump term.

Okay, so, but use evidence, not emotions. Right. So what evidence do you have? Not like it feels, it seems, like, what evidence do you have?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
But no, we've already been through that. For example, the border crossings are coming at an all-time low.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
But you build a wall to prevent border crossings. So if you can get border crossings low without a wall, then it's even... And to establish sovereignty. No, of course. He will build those things. I just find it interesting. I'm just trying to get down to the element of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
If courts allow him to, of course he will. I mean, obviously. But he has the biggest mandate that he had that he will ever have. And he is fulfilling it every single day. So did you vote for Trump? I abstain from voting. Okay, well, I'll say one thing.

Well, I will say students are becoming more right wing. I mean, this is amazing. By the way, Gen Z was the biggest move towards Donald Trump of any demographic and generation this last November. So thank you guys for that. It was a major, major move. Would you say this campus is pretty liberal?

Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Do you guys feel as if on campus that if you speak out as a conservative, you are graded differently?

This proves my point that college is a scam. You should not be forced to go into debt to study things that are not true. Right. Again, I just I reject the whole premise. But, yeah, look, the part of the problem is that it's taxpayer funded.

President Trump is waging a war against the college cartel, which is amazing, saying that federal taxpayer money will not go to schools like this if they teach garbage like critical race theory, DEI, transgenderism ideology. It's going to be a process actually unfolding that. But, yeah, the other problem is this, is that these professors have never done anything in the real world, many of them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
They have lived in their kind of circles of abstractions for their entire life. And, again, I truly believe that if you were to go, and I'm not saying everyone should not go to college, but I think it's actually something you should consider.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I think that doing a gap year instead of just growing right into college and spending the equivalent money, like if I could ask, are you in-state or out-of-state at this school? In-state. You're in-state. What is the tuition, all-in-cost tuition room and board here at this school?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Can I, $40,000, $50,000? $7,500 all in? The person at the mic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Okay, but you've got to give me some idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
With tuition, room, and board, and everything? Yeah. All in? Yeah. Okay. So it's subsidized by taxpayers, though, but that, yeah, it's a separate issue. Okay. So, but for 20,000 bucks, I think you could better spend that money, quite honestly, experiencing other cultures, getting another job, like, doing things outside of just the walls of this school. That's why I'm such a critic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
And it's, I'll just be honest, I employ 1,000 people at Turning Point. I don't care where you went to college. Employers do not care where you went to college. They care about, can you do the job? Yeah. And we are seeing a change in the workplace, and college will be the last ones to adjust in this broken, outdated model, is that it's much more like sports teams, which is like, what is your skill?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
What do you bring to the table? Not like, where did you go to college or how long you were there? We're seeing the kind of emergence of a free agent system, if you will, based on skill and merit. So anyway, I hope that answers your question. Can I have one more question?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I mean, it's a great question, but let me just – I think it's logically contradictory. So if I may use a young lady as a – let's pretend she was pregnant, okay, and there was an unborn human being in utero. And let's pretend he is on death row for murdering five people. There's a difference. That baby did nothing wrong in utero. He used his agency to go kill five other people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
And as a Christian, the only law that is repeated in all five books of the Torah is that if you take a life, your life will be taken.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
He obviously repented and gave his life to Christ and became a super amazing disciple. I guess the question is, do we believe in the ultimate administration of justice? And I think, of course, you do. If you take a life, your life should be taken. But making a moral equivalency of an unborn baby that has done nothing wrong, which, by the way, we have no problem slaughtering. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
Well, I'm saying as a country. Right. We over a million and a half a year. And then we say, oh, well, this guy who burned an entire house down and killed five people, you know, we need to feel sorry for them. Now, this is not you, but I could turn it on its head that bleeding heart liberals will say they feel more sorry for the person on death row than for the baby in the womb. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
that never had a chance to live and so for me I think the person that let's just again I think the death penalty should only be used very rarely very sparingly and should be done quickly in fact I even think that we should bring back you know public executions on certain people no But think about it. I think that, and you guys should laugh, but it should be done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
No, you guys should laugh, but think about it. Some of these crimes are so heinous against humanity that it must be done as a statement and not say that, you know, we're going to make you a sympathy. So, for example, I think that Luigi Maggioni guy, I think he should get the death penalty.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
I think that if you're going to go kill someone in the back of the head in the streets of New York and act as if I should be sympathetic because you didn't get a health care premium you didn't like, I think you should get the death penalty for that. I think if you take a life, your life should be taken and should be done, obviously, through a jury. So that's how I would respond to that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Do We Still Need a Wall? and Other Questions
It's the administration of justice. And it's also more specifically the life in the womb has not hurt anybody else. The person on death penalty definitionally has hurt somebody else's life.

Some would call it the dark night of the conservative soul. We were a year removed from January 6th. Many of our friends were being raided and indicted on complete bogus and BS charges by the federal government. Joe Biden seemed to have no concern for bringing the country together. And most concerning of all, the tyrant... The regime would not allow difference of opinion. Stifled all inquiry.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Absolutely. So you are head of the Department of Justice Task Force to combat anti-Semitism. Tell us all about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
So tell us about the decision that Marco Rubio has made because he has unfettered discretion, according to the INA, the Immigration Naturalization Act, to be able to deport Mahmoud Khalil. Some critics are saying, Leo, this is just a matter of freedom of speech, that you should be allowed to protest against the state of Israel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
How do you guys draw the line between protesting against Israel and also anti-Semitism?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And I agree completely with all that. Khalil does not want to live in America because he loves our land, our people, or our values. Khalil wants to live in America in order to contribute to the destruction and eradication of America. Staying in America is not a right, it's a privilege. And Mahmoud Khalil threw his privilege away. Are you guys receiving a good feedback from these universities?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
What concerned us the most was what started right in January of 2021. Was the lockdown of freedom of thought. President Trump was banned from Spotify. Of course, banned famously from Facebook, banned from Instagram, banned from TikTok even. And then, yes, of course, banned from his Twitter account while being a sitting president of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
I deal at these universities, Leo, as you well know. They are infested with anti-Americanism, anti-Semitism, also treatment against white students. This has been terrible in recent years. What is the response you are getting from these colleges as you guys have announced this very important task force?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
So, Leo, I think you guys are going to be successful here. I really do, because we got you, and you're phenomenal at what you do, and you are a bulldog. And so if you guys are successful, or when you guys are successful, would you guys also do a similar task force to go after the anti-white bias that we're seeing on our college campuses across the country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
Absolutely. And you have a great history, Leo, of doing that. And for example, I mean, there are dormitories. I mean, one in particular in Cal Berkeley, where the off-campus housing policy was the person of color theme house, where a student had too light skin and wasn't allowed to go and have... a place in that dormitory from the promulgating whiteness course at University of Colorado Denver.
The Charlie Kirk Show

For an entire year, we really could not get our message out. We leaned on great platforms like Rumble and ones like this at Real America's Voice. For an entire year, we were struggling to communicate, to make arguments. Every time we went to Twitter, we would be banned. We'd be censored. In fact, I don't think I was on Twitter for like nine months. The team can fact check me on that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
I mean, the list is insane. And you guys are going to get to the bottom of it. And so, Leo, you're doing a great job. We have your back. Thank you so much. And fight hard. And by the way, don't just take these colleges rhetoric. I don't trust these colleges. They have to fire these anti-American pro-Hamas professors as well. I think you guys should demand that and ask for the order.

So we were contemplating. The next election, we will do this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
We were contemplating doing an election live stream, kind of our legendary election live stream. We said, ah, it's a little bit of an awful election. The next time Greenland does an election, we're going to do our whole election live stream. It's remarkable how few votes... There are actually in Greenland. People come up to me, they say, Charlie, what's going on in Greenland?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
As if I'm some sort of Greenlandic political expert. As if I'm like the Svengali of Greenlandic politics. We would set up a turning point action office in Nook, but I think the Danish government would shut it down. So Greenland had its election. The pro-Denmark party got first, but the pro-United States party got its best ever result and got second just narrowly. 1,500 votes short.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
The ruling left-wing parties that are relatively in the middle all lost. It's all proportional, though, so nobody is dominant. So essentially, the election that happened yesterday shows the pro-United States party that is called NALAROC. NALAROLIC. I'm butchering that, so please forgive me. Got second. President wants Greenland to become part of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
NALAROC is part of the party, by the way, that helped host us when we visited in... When I visit in January, it's very informal, but I met this guy connected on WhatsApp and he also visited the inauguration. There's some of our snapshots and images when we were visiting on the ground in Nook. If we're only 1,500 votes away from tipping the scales, we're getting closer. So what does this all mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
If we want Greenland to be part of the United States of America, which we do, this is positive momentum to force a yes or no referendum to first and foremost get Greenland to leave Denmark. President Trump has been doing his job and has been offering an olive branch. President Trump has said we will invest billions of dollars in Greenland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
I hope you understand that billions of dollars in Greenland would change their country forever. We love Greenland, and we can be a great partner with them. From infrastructure, they'd be part of our Medicaid system, which is not exactly awesome, but it's probably better than what they're getting now. It's barely 50,000 people, and many other countries are salivating

to be able to conquer and take over Greenland. We would offer support. We'd give them financial security. Not to mention, we would have access to rare earth minerals, to oil deposits, to gold, to rubies, to gems. The bad guys are conquering Greenland. We want to partner with them. You see, Russia and China wants to conquer it. We want to partner with them. Invite them into the family.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
I think we took like a nine-month hiatus from Twitter. Because we were banned around the trans stuff. It was a six-month hiatus from Twitter. They said, you have to delete your tweet where you called Levine a man, even though we say that he's a woman. We said, we're not going to do that. The Mockingbird media reigned supreme. And then out of nowhere... The game changed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
We want Greenland to be in the United States of America. We want to lift them up. And the people of Greenland are amazing when I went there. Via self-determination. They have to want it as well. And they are getting closer and closer. It is a Western Hemisphere nation. And this election shows that the pro-American forces are ascendant in Greenland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And it should be partnered with America, not the old world. This would be nothing but upside for the great people of Greenland. You will be wealthier. You will be richer. You will have the U.S. dollar. You will have more purchasing power. You see, the people of Greenland, part of their mentality is sadly very similar to the Native Americans. They're not really sure what to make of the Westerner.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
They're not really sure what to make of it. And unfortunately, there's a lot of poverty. However, the younger folks in Nook that I met that follow us on TikTok, they want to be part of the United States of America. They want to be part of our country. They want to be part of our experience. They want to be part of this broader project.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And I think it's time that we continually say, here's the olive branch. We are not here to take you over or conquer any of that stuff. We want you to be part of our community. The Russians or the Chinese will try to conquer you. We respect you. We understand you. And we think you have a great nation that could also come into our great nation. We could do amazing things together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And you guys would become very, very rich and prosperous. So the pro-American forces are doing very well in Greenland. We'll see what happens. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
You could make the argument that what happened next was a cause set in motion, that without this heroic and courageous action, that President Trump might never have become president. That our movement that now has taken over Washington, D.C., that's spread all across the country, and yes, also all across the planet, never would have taken root.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And that, of course, is Elon Musk doing something he did not have to do. Doing something that quite honestly cost him greatly. Paying too much for a platform that was otherwise not as valuable as you might think. And that is when Elon Musk purchased Twitter. He purchased Twitter and the game completely changed. He called their bluff. He paid way too much money for it. Everyone knew it at the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
But that was Elon Musk's signal saying, I might be the world's richest man, but I am not going to stand idly by while Western civilization and the country that I love, the country that I have poured my heart into is going to be incinerated and taken over. from within. Elon Musk was the beginning of us standing up against this woke tumor that infested every major cultural institution.
The Charlie Kirk Show

It's very important to remember also how Elon Musk lost his son to this very movement. To him, it is hyper-personal. And he swore a pledge. He swore an oath to destroy the woke mind virus. Elon went to work. And what makes Elon so unique is Elon's wealth is partially made possible by the left. Not all of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
But partially, the magnitude of his wealth is only made possible because of climate change fanaticism. Democrats believe that the world was ending because of climate change. Democrats believe that The world was coming to an apocalyptic end. So therefore, we need electric vehicles. Therefore, we need to fight carbon emissions. Therefore, Tesla was the centerpiece to all that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
So Elon saw himself benefit tremendously through electric vehicle subsidies. He didn't ask for them. He didn't push for them, but he gladly received them. And so then Elon's net worth went from $20 billion to $50 billion, to $100 billion, to $200 billion, where Elon Musk's net worth fluctuates now between $350 billion and $450 billion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
The Democrats created the wealth that Elon Musk has now been able to use to save the West. And then Elon went in even further. As he started to realize the stakes of the game, He understood that electric vehicles and even going to Mars, all of that pales in comparison to the fight and the struggle for decency and civilization itself. And Elon was never asked to do this. He did not have to do it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
Elon Musk could have bought an island and he could have vacationed for the rest of his life. He could have had a super yacht that would make Jeff Bezos' look like a little chummy fishing boat. But Elon decided to put all of it on the line and be a man in the arena, as Teddy Roosevelt would talk about.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Our followers have since tripled on X. We now stream this program on X, and many of you guys are watching it on X. And of course, Elon Musk went all in on the election, spending hundreds of millions of dollars to get President Trump elected. We worked with him and his super PAC in the state of Wisconsin to successfully get President Trump elected in Wisconsin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
We worked with Elon and his super PAC in the state of Pennsylvania to help get Dave McCormick to be a United States Senator. Of course, President Trump also winning Pennsylvania. He's a phenomenal patriot. And now, all of this culminating into the left finding their new target. What we have been witnessing the last couple of days is nothing short than an electric vehicle Kristallnacht.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
This is the left going after a great American patriot going to Tesla dealerships and engaging in outright domestic terrorism, firebombing Teslas, vandalizing them, committing felony after felony.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
Now, we have a new sheriff at the FBI, Kash Patel, and I highly encourage Kash Patel to use all of the FBI agents now at your disposal to find all of the domestic terrorists that are committing these political hate crimes. A political hate crime should fall under the guise of what is domestic terrorism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
If you bomb a Democrat county headquarters or a Republican county headquarters, that can be classified as domestic terrorism. Not only can someone get hurt, but this is them saying that they want to assassinate Elon Musk, and they have been saying that time and time again. They helped create Elon Musk, and they are so angered at their core.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
That the man that they helped create, the man whose wealth was largely made possible because of their earth-worshipping, is now using his time, most importantly, and his treasure to assail the federal bureaucracy, to shrink the size and scope of the federal government, to restore citizen government. We are seeing that the left's core ideology at the fundamental core is destruction.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

These are 2020 tactics, the same way that they went and go burn to Wendy's during Floydapalooza. The tactics they will revive if they can get away with it. We need mass federal arrests for the people that are bombing these Tesla factories and these dealerships, not yet factories. We need to make it public names of who is doing this. This is coordinated. This is centralized.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And Tesla owners are now fearful of what is happening. This is an orchestrated hit against a great entrepreneur and American patriot. It reminds me of the firebombing and vandalism of pro-life clinics. It's the same Antifa tactics. However, we control the FBI. So Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, we need arrests. We need perp walks. We need public shows of support for Tesla and Elon Musk.

And if you dare lay a finger on one of it, you might go to prison for domestic political terrorism. Only Donald Trump could get the left to hate electric cars. Private student loan debt in the United States totals about $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. Why refi refinances distressed or defaulted private student loans that others will not touch?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
Why refi does not care what your credit score is? Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless, and they've even lost hope. They don't care what your credit score is and may not be available in all states. YRefi is not a debt settlement company. And they work with each borrower individually, tailoring each loan to each borrower's specific situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
Go to YRefi.com. YRefi refinances distressed and defaulted private student loans, which are different from federal loans. Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless. They have been such good supporters of us at Turning Point USA. They help us with our campus tours.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So if any of you have private student loans, if your brother has private student loans, if your son has private student loans, if anyone in your circle, tell them about YRefi. I can vouch for their credibility and their patriotism. Go to YRefi.com. That is YRefi.com. We're experiencing the coordinated attack on Elon Musk and Tesla dealerships. However, Elon seems largely unfazed by this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
He seems largely unfazed because for him, money is nothing more than a game. I mean, there is something to say that once you get over $100, $150 billion, it really is kind of just numbers on a screen. But he's never been motivated by material possessions. Elon Musk does not own major mansions. He owns planes basically just for utilitarian purposes. They say that this has never happened before.

That a rich man has never come into the White House. However, World War II was largely won thanks to the industrial policy that was orchestrated and that was... that was directed by Bernard Baruch. Bernard Baruch was an industrialist. He was one of the wealthiest men on the planet. He decided to take his time and go into the White House. He was known as the park bench statesman.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
In fact, there is a bench named for him outside of the White House. in Lafayette Square. He came in both during World War I and World War II. During World War I, Bernard Baruch served under Woodrow Wilson. He played a crucial role in managing U.S. economic mobilization during the war. He even advised Wilson at the Paris Peace Conference.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
In the interwar period, he continued to advise presidents on economic and military preparedness. During World War II, he was the top-level advisor to Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This guy was the industrial titan of the time. He was not quite as rich as Elon Musk, but he was very, very wealthy. Think of him as in the category of Bezos of the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
He served as an ear and an advisor to FDR for industrial production for war efforts. His strategies are credited with significantly reducing production times for military equipment. Blake knows these facts better than I do.

But one of the reasons that we were able to win World War II so decisively and honestly rather quickly is we were able to build ships and build critical infrastructure faster than the Europeans could have even imagined. We mobilized the entire country, and I think we were able to build a naval ship a day or a week. I'm lending on some memory here, but it was a remarkable feat of accomplishment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
We did a ship in a day as a stunt. That was the Liberty ship. Our infrastructure was very intact at the time. The point being, though, is that this has happened before. is that Bernard Bruch came during a time of national crisis and said, I don't care how much money I make, I'm going to go all in. Elon Musk is very similar.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And that is a great way to get this parasitic force that calls themselves the American Democrat Party to mobilize against you. And Elon Musk seems largely unfazed. In fact, this only makes him seem to want to double and triple down his efforts. Yesterday, President Trump ordered an electric vehicle to the White House. I will be honest.

A year ago, March of 2024, I did not have it on my bingo card that in the first 100 days of the Trump presidency, President Trump would be getting into a Tesla. There's a lot broken in this country. The TSA is broken. Our banking system is broken. Our hospitals are broken. Our government is largely broken. But America's entrepreneurs are one of the only things in the country that works.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
So why are we supposed to trust the government experts over our master class entrepreneurs? You understand that our top 3,000 entrepreneurs in this country, whether it be in crypto, fintech, banking, electric vehicles... online e-commerce, energy are the envy of the world. No nation, not even China, has the entrepreneurs that we have. They are the greatest asset that we have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Only Trump Could Turn the Left Against Electric Cars
And Elon is the greatest of the greatest asset. We should be thanking God that someone with his wisdom, his power, his magnitude, his force, and his patriotism is willing to step into the void. And just remember, it's worthy of repetition. Because of him purchasing Twitter, President Trump is probably in the White House. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. This is a tough topic.

I failed to see the question's relevance. You said you care about women's rights. I want to make sure we're talking about the same thing. What is a woman?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yes. But what will the disease go away in nine months?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Right. But so that one sec, that's not a definition. That's like saying a coffee cup is something that looks like a coffee cup. You have to give me an objective definition of a woman.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, no, I'm trying to say, how can one independently know they're looking at a woman? By what definition? You ask them, like a normal person. Right, but what is the definition of that? Meaning, for example, a woman is an adult human female with excess chromosomes. That is an objective definition of what a woman is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
I'm trying to play one step ahead of where you're trying to take this. But yes, of course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Okay, but just to be clear, if anybody can be a woman or you say that as a woman, then therefore can I become a black person if I want to? We're talking about gender, not race. Well, hold on. The guy says no. But hold on. It's my truth if I want to be a black person. Why can't I be?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Thank you, man.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
You're in disagreement?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yes, but it's not possible to know what kind is without religion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
For sure. How do you know that's good?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
But it has nothing to do with them being Christian. Well, hold on. So let me tell you. In several African countries that are not Christian, and you guys can go on mission trips and see it for yourself, there will be unwanted children, and they'll just leave babies by the fire and let them die. That's not because they're not religious, though. Hold on a second. I'm sorry to interrupt you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, you can't because they're both human beings. There's actually someone in this audience here that was conceived in rape. Can you tell me which one it is?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
But for them, that's normal cultural practice. Sure. No one taught them otherwise. Understood. How does that tail into religion? Well, but it's just normal for them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
But then why is it that you think something's good and they don't? What's the difference? I told you I've been taught. I'm an intellect. Oh, exactly. I've been taught by Christians. No, just by other people. Nobody in my family is religious either. Hold on a second. Hold on. No, no. You live in a remnant of a Christian country that inherited these values.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
That I don't disagree with. Okay, no, but what I'm saying is what you think is not Christian... It's Western values that have trickled down through hundreds of years that you think is common sense that actually is a Christian tradition.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
I'm saying is it plausible? My belief is that you cannot have a free and civil society without a culture that – That is either inherited or believes in the eternal being or in a transcendent moral order. It cannot exist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
For sure. No, that's good. Again, this is less about – You know, Christianity, Buddhism, whatever. It's more about the idea that you have to submit that there's some truth and some appeal to goodness. Sure. That we look up to. The question is, what is that? And we believe and we our argument is that that has been passed down through generations that originated as Christian ideals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Love your neighbor as yourself. Don't steal stuff just because you're bigger than them. Have respect for universal human equality. There is a book I want you to read. Well, it's not, though, actually. There's a book by an agnostic by the name of Tom Holland. Love to read it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
And it's called Dominion, where he's an agnostic, and he says, you guys in the West have no idea that all of the things you consider to be common sense is an inheritance from Christianity. And I encourage you to read it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
No, no, because you don't know because human beings conceived in rape actually are equal human beings of people not. The point being is that it is not morally correct to murder a human being regardless of the circumstances of how that baby was put into this world despite how evil and horrific that it is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
So why don't we talk about that, though, again, instead of abortion? First of all... Because abortion has become a form of birth control in this country. Right, and it's not. Let's be honest. I agree. Okay. No, but I'm saying that's bad. But number two, there's something missing where I would imagine here at Arizona State University you guys could get free contraceptives. Am I wrong? Yes? Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Okay, so we have abundant contraceptive use, and yet we have more abortions than ever. So maybe it's a problem of behavior, and we should tell people save yourself until marriage, which is an unpopular belief. That's one. And it's a 100% guaranteed way. To avoid such a circumstance, absent a terrible rape or something. All right. That's all my questions. Thank you. Have a good one. Disagreements?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko

"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, first of all, we don't argue from that context. We are using reason. We believe our reason is informed by revelation because this was founded as a Christian country. And it is the greatest country ever because of those ideals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yeah, but we're not arguing even from a Christian standpoint. When I sat here with the young man from Britain, I used reason and rationality. And you agree murder should be wrong?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Okay. But if we believe murder should be wrong, then murder should be wrong for babies in the womb.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Did you hear me address that earlier or not?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
If not, you're a eugenicist. So, for example, if I told you we can kill 30 million poor Americans right now and our life will get better, is it right to kill them?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yeah, I've answered this many times. And then there's frozen embryos?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
assume that a child is a more valuable life because they have actual consciousness only if you can guarantee the hypothetical is only applicable if you can guarantee the human embryos would then go to the next stage stage of development but they're all human lives So you believe that... They're equally human lives, yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Okay, then I have... I want to get to the next question, though, but just, yeah, I just want one last question. Charlie, I got a good one. No, just last question for her, and I'll try to do two or three more, which I think is important, which is, should it be illegal...
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
If a couple finds out that they're having a baby girl and they want a baby boy, should it be illegal to have an abortion based on that information?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
They're opening up to it. It's called sex-selective abortion. It happens all the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Is child sacrifice wrong?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, no, is child sacrifice objectively wrong?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yeah, but a baby is not an invader of your home.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
I've got to get to the next question, but you're falling for the fallacy of that it's, I'm just going to let everyone decide. At some point, there will be a governing moral philosophy. There is no neutrality in morality. It does not exist. At some point, you need to have more morality when it comes to murder, when it comes to theft. There is no neutral space.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
You might have a neutral attitude as a human being, but society and civilization needs objective morality. Thank you. I'm going to get to a couple more questions before I wrap up. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Hold on, that's a different question. So the question is, my answer, which you're referencing a Jubilee video, was that if... I've never seen that video, but yes, go on. Okay, but it's been well, let's just say documented, my view on it. If... If the woman or the 12-year-old were to live, then the baby should be delivered.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Now, mind you that abortion is never medically necessary to save a mother's life, period. However, septiectomies are medically necessary, which are medical procedures to perform on a woman or a baby if the amniotic sac tears and the baby's head gets full of fluid, right? So I'm just trying to understand if a 12-year-old's life is not in danger, you should try to save all lives involved.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
That's the position, is that you shouldn't try to eliminate the unborn baby, because that's still murder. And then let me ask you another question. In life, is it ever okay to do something evil after an evil?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
We totally agree. So therefore, an evil, horrendous, unspeakable act happens of somebody getting raped, which is very rare, resulting in pregnancy. Therefore, continuing that cycle of evil is not the right moral thing to do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Let me give you another argument, which is that if in that instance there was an innocent life – let me say this. If someone broke into my house and all of a sudden that person had a baby strapped to their chest, I wouldn't shoot them. Would you? No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Okay, then we're agreeing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
What is the moral difference?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Do you mean the copper IUD, or do you mean a traditional IUD? There's two types of IUDs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yeah, so again, so copper kills almost all sperm. There is an IUD, but an IUD is not an abortifacient.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, personally, not really. But in society, of course, yes. I mean, again, these are personal decisions versus societal decisions. But I guess you said the question is of a fetus and a baby, what is the moral difference between the two?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
I know. I'm Aristotelian at my core.

However, if a being cannot speak, that does not mean they're no longer human.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
It's more than that, though. I believe that there's a deeper level, though, that the soul is the outgrowth of your rationality.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
So, for example, this is actually flummoxing brain scientists right now. We don't know where consciousness is housed in the brain. Very true. And so you know your stuff. We don't know where consciousness is, and it's driving neuroscientists crazy. When someone is considered brain dead, it's an amazing story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
An 11-year-old got in a terrific auto accident, was called brain dead, and all of a sudden, a year later, she has a period. And you're like, wait, I thought she's brain dead. When we cut into someone who's brain dead in their arm, their adrenaline increases. Someone who's brain dead, if a loved one starts to go up to them and talk to them, their heart rate increases.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
So even though there might not be brain waves, there's something else that is being – that is able to communicate with the outside world beyond reason. Does that make sense? Sure. And I think it's a mystery of what that is. I think it's the soul.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Why not? It's more than that. Well, let me think deeper about what that – what you mean by that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
No. So let me ask you a question. What action did my son have when he was born a minute old? He starts crying. Okay. So you consider that an action? So let me ask a question. When my son was 12 weeks old, he was kicking in his mother's, my wife's womb. Is that an action?

Let me go a step further. When my daughter was in my wife's womb around 25 weeks, would recognize my voice and push up against her stomach. Is that an action?

So therefore, we're worthy of moral protection. But if the mother's life is at risk... Which is, again, let's be very clear. That is so incredibly rare, and abortion is never medically necessary to save a mother's life. There are other procedures outside of abortion that can save the mother's life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
For example, if you're 26 weeks pregnant, and your uterine wall ruptures, which is a serious thing, they say abortion is the only solution. No, you can have the baby delivered by C-section, which is cesarean section, which is not an abortion. Folks, your halls are decked with holly, and the sound of Andy Williams on the radio tells us to be of good cheer.

But often the joy of the season is lost in the hustle and bustle. That's when my friends at Hillsdale College produced a free online course on Charles Dickens' A Christmas Miracle. You're likely familiar with the story of old miser Ebenezer Scrooge and his three ghostly visitors. Scrooge famously refuses to be charitable in order to decrease the surplus population.

Okay, but again – But it's your child. I just want to get back to – Not until it's born. But you said action determines moral worth. At what point does it become a human being? After it exits the womb. But again, all the actions in the womb, the kicking of all that, that's still not human. Even though it's human DNA, human experience, human heartbeat, human brainwaves –
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Let me stay focused on him, if that's okay. I just want to make sure we're morally clear, though. In order for your line of thinking to be correct, you say you're a man, you don't have a right to say over it. Why does the mom have a right to say over the baby if it's not her DNA? It happens to be in her? No, because it is her body. It's another body in her body. No, it's her body.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, no, the baby's different DNA, though. So it's actually not her body. Because your DNA was not your mom's DNA. It's separate deoxyribonucleic acid. It's not a clone of the mom. It's an offspring of the mom. Again, I don't see that. No, but you keep on saying it's her body. The baby is actually not her body. It's attached to her body through an umbilical cord.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Well, no. One is temporarily dependent on the other. No different than my one-year-old right now. If you came and killed all of us in our house, my baby would starve to death after two days, and no one would feed it. So how is that morally different? So why should one-year-olds get moral protection and ten-week-olds should not?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Right. Again, but just to close this out, we'll keep going in circles. The moral dimension that you and pro-aborts apply to the womb cannot be applied to any other realm of life. So is it okay for a mother to kill her one week old? Of course not, we would say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Yes, but obliterating a life is not a cure.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Last question. Are you thankful your mom did not abort you? Not particularly. Okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
So you'd be okay with a child being in an abusive home where he gets hit every night? Not okay, but hold on a second. Is life or death, we choose life. You do not give the excuse to the circumstances a reason to murder the being, period. End of story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
No, I'm not okay with it. I'm saying that if you were given a binary, if you were to say, Charlie, a kid is going to grow up in a tough environment, do you want to murder it now? Answer is no. And I'll ask the same question I asked earlier.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
If you had a baby, or do you think it should be legal, if the doctor calls, hey, your son's going to have Down syndrome, should I be able to have an abortion based on that information? That's the woman's choice. I think that's eugenics. I think it's eugenics if all of a sudden you're terminating a being based on whether or not it doesn't have an IQ as high as yours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
You're correct. Right. Saying it's a woman's choice. No, you're right in the sense saying the woman's choice is the same moral paradigm of how we got to Nazi Germany. It's the same thing. It's dehumanizing language. It's that they're not human. They're not worthy of protection. It's just someone's choice. It doesn't matter if they're eliminated. They're going to have a bad life anyway.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"Are You Grateful to Be Alive?": More from ASU ft. George Janko
Let's just get rid of them. Where we have to make moral arguments is even if it's difficult, hard, painful, and there's a struggle, life is beautiful and life is worthy of protection. Even in an abusive home. Yes, even in tough environments. That's not an excuse for that at all.

And we will cherish your homeland and protect it from all the enemies around the world. And we will make Greenland great again. As we step into 2025, the one thing is clear. D-dollarization is accelerating. China and the other BRICS nations are determined to reduce their dependence on the U.S. dollar and establish themselves as global economic superpowers. Their secret weapon? Gold.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
China resumed buying gold recently. And you know what's even more telling? They under-report their buy. Does that make you wonder why? They recognize its global value and ability to withstand economic shocks. Gold is a global asset with innate value. It's tangible, reliable, and immune to economic manipulation. China and other BRICS countries want to be prepared.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
They just don't want it to be known. But this is not about other nations. It's about you. In a world of shifting economic power, gold is your hedge against uncertainty.

Lots to cover here. Senator, first, I want to talk about some news within the United States Senate. Are you in the opinion that we should have one major omnibus bill or two separate spending bills?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
I first want to say we are going to cover the terrible tragedy that's happening with the California fires later this program. Three friends of mine have already lost their homes. It's a terrible situation. We are going to cover it extensively. But first, I want to give you in this audience an exclusive update of what I was up to this last 24 hours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Yeah, so what is the appetite right now in the U.S. Senate to cut spending? Is there anybody in the Democrat Party that's interested in this? Because we're borrowing a trillion dollars every 100 days.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
I totally and completely agree. If you were to say just some of the and I know you've detailed some of this, but where can we find some agreement in the Republican conference of where to cut? Is there any appetite to cut some of the Pentagon budget?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Donald Trump Jr., a very good friend of mine, gave me a call and said, hey, do you want to come to Greenland? Yeah, that sounds great. So we boarded Trump Force One at 2 a.m. on January the 7th. I even hid this from most of my own staff. Almost no one had any idea this was not to be leaked, not to be publicized. At 2 a.m., we got on Trump Force One and flew...
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
So, Senator, let's now dive into the very curious developments of John Fetterman. John Fetterman, who seems to be very hard to pinpoint here. Here he is in this interview admonishing his fellow Democrats for opposing the Lake and Riley Act. Let's play cut 64.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Senator, what is going on with Mr. Fetterman?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
So it's hard to tell whether or not it's authentic. Do you think that there will be more Democrats that potentially might signal similarly and John Ossoff or others? Your thoughts on this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Let's play cut 95. Senator Fetterman of whether or not he might support some of Trump's nominees. Play cut 95.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
I mean, I wish that was the way that this would proceed, that we would have more discussions and dialogues like this and be open-minded. I mean, Senator, you voted for some nominees of other parties before. Can you speak to that? I'm not putting you on the spot for that, but I'm saying— There should be some yielding to an incoming administration, correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
From Palm Beach to Nook, to Nook, Greenland. Six-hour flight, three-hour time change. Let's get all the videos, guys, up there and all the pictures, please. Landed around 11 a.m. local time as the sun was rising. The sunrise in Greenland this time of year is at 11 a.m. Get off the plane. And by the way, we are greeted by hundreds of people. Hundreds of people that are just curious.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
In closing here, Senator, is there any red flags that you are seeing from Pete to Tulsi to Bobby Kennedy Cash? Some senators are saying that all of Trump's nominees seem poised to be confirmed. Would you agree with that assessment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
What is the importance of the upcoming Wisconsin Supreme Court race, Senator?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Senator Johnson, thank you so much. Excellent work as always. Thank you. Every day. Charlie Kirk here. For many of us, the new year brings new joys and new financial challenges.

The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
For those of you that missed the program yesterday or do not quite know the news, Mark Zuckerberg announced sweeping policy changes, saying they're getting rid of their fact checking department, that this election was about more speech, not less speech, that they're changing their content moderation team to go from California to Texas. These are dramatic changes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
And before I get into the details here, and I've had a chance to sit down with Mark Zuckerberg. I'm getting to know Mark Zuckerberg. People say, do you trust them or not? I said, I'm getting to know him. I found him to be very sincere when I sat down with him. But it's going to be a growing relationship over these years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
I appreciate basically Mark and the Facebook team, Joel Kaplan and everybody, Joel I do know very well, to stand up to the government, to stand up to these regimes and say, no, we are going to protect freedom of speech. We're going to protect freedom of discourse. Let's play some pieces of tape here. This is cut 51. Hey, everyone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
We got to give Elon so much credit. He took the risk and stood up for freedom of speech. And this is a movement now, three years later, we are going to have the most open internet that we've had in a decade. And the trend was a more controlled, a censored and censored internet. We were going towards totalitarianism online. And Elon Musk bought Twitter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
We then go to the top of a very sacred site in Greenland, the place where the first missionary actually ever came to Greenland from Europe in 1745. Yeah, that's it right there. That's right as the sun is rising. And all of a sudden, we started to run into people with MAGA hats all throughout Nook, Greenland. Now, mind you, the population of Greenland is 50,000 people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
And because of his purchase of Twitter, President Trump was then able to win a triumphant landslide victory. And here we are, fast forward three years later, where you have Facebook sounding like Elon Musk. And in fact, Mark Zuckerberg went as far to say in his comments. X has it right. We want to follow more of the model of X. And Meta has made a lot of mistakes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
And there has to be a lot of proof that they are ready to show that this is not just talk, but this is action. Real follow through. Accounts restored. No more fact checking. No more suppression of political posts. You must trust, but verify. And I could tell you this last year. I mean, I said this to the Facebook team. I said this to Mark.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
TikTok was way more viral for us than Instagram this last year. It wasn't even close. Daisy and the team did a great job running Instagram, but TikTok was as hot as a pistol. I mean, TikTok was billions and billions and billions of views. And one of the reasons why is Facebook made a decision that they were going to dampen down all political content this year.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
That it wasn't going to be as easy for political content to go viral on Facebook. Mark Zuckerberg made his announcement, so sorry, never mind, we're going to go back. And that's a good thing that you're going back. These should not be political actors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
And there does need to be some proof that the atonement for the $400 million given to Joe Biden to get him elected in 2020, you got to get over that. But I can say this is phenomenal development. Phenomenal. Mark Zuckerberg is reading the room, and the trend is our friend. We should welcome that. By the way, some people are saying, oh, you know, I don't trust him. I'm not asking you to trust him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
You should welcome when people come in your direction. That is key. You should not be bitter or walled off where you say, oh, you weren't with me when. It's a different thing of having people in your inner circle versus... saying he's in control of the biggest platform on the planet. He's saying something we agree with. He's doing things allegedly that we agree with.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
He wants to fight regime censorship around the world that I applaud. And as somebody who has 4 million followers on Instagram and a couple million followers on Facebook, I can tell you that a free and open Facebook and meta is very, very good for the cause of America first and liberty and the cause that we care about on this program.

In Nook, it's something like 30,000 people, maybe. And all of a sudden, people are lining the streets asking Donald Trump Jr. for pictures. And they have MAGA hats. And there's people, by the way, there's a greeting group at the airport of hundreds of people. What was striking is how many people in Nook Greenland watched the Charlie Kirk show, followed us on TikTok.

They said, oh, I follow you on TikTok. Oh, I follow you on social media. There's one of the people right there with the MAGA hat who was working at the airport and greeted us with a MAGA hat on right as the Trump Force One was coming in. One of the ushers at the airport. We then went to a restaurant and we were literally so excited.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
We were so consumed by people, so overwhelmed, we had to go get a private room and then we brought some of the local folks in. There's Donald Trump Jr. just with some of the workers there, signing MAGA hats, taking questions, talking to people. And we were there for three hours on the ground and we learned a lot. We learned a lot. Number one, it is so hard to do it justice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
It's very, very hard to articulate. It's hard to show the pictures of just how beautiful Greenland is. I've been to Alaska. I've been to all parts of Canada. It is objectively one of the most pristine, overwhelming physical environments that I have ever seen. It's untouched. It's as raw nature as you can ever find, that you can ever come in contact with.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
It's like you are here and there is the wild. There's polar bears that walk around Nook. Polar bears. Very spiritual in many ways. Incredibly so. That's number one. Number two, talking to the locals and getting to know them, they can't stand their current Danish masters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
They believe that Denmark, who is currently controlling of Greenland and of Nuuk, which is the largest city in Greenland, they are being mistreated. They do not like the status quo, and they want a change. They say that when they go to Copenhagen, which of course is the capital of Denmark, they are told by local Danes, go back to your home of Nuuk. You're not welcome here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
They want to be part of a country that respects them, that gives them human rights. Right now, they said, quote, we feel like prisoners in our own land, that we are being controlled by these Danish masters who treat us terribly. And number three, which was the other takeaway, the people of Greenland are some of the sweetest. They are some of the kindest and warmest people. Incredibly authentic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Now, you might be asking, but what is the reason that everyone is talking about Greenland? Greenland is not just... a fun issue to debate. There are very serious geopolitical reasons as to why the United States of America should assume control or purchase or whatever process the president ends up doing back control of Greenland.

Number one, Greenland is the northernmost land in the Western Hemisphere and has critical military importance. The shortest route from America to Russia is actually across the North Pole. That's why we have actually a military base in northern Greenland, Thule Space Force Base, whose purpose is to monitor potential and possible missile launches. Greenland is the world's largest island.

I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
There are tons of resources buried under its ice cap. We actually don't even know how wealthy this country is. As a side note, a young boy comes up. He says, Charlie, Charlie. I said, oh, hey, how are you? I follow you on TikTok. I need to show you something. He shows me his phone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
He says, in my village, three hours from here, when we just kind of go out into the countryside, we find rubies the size of baseballs. I said, what? He said, we have rubies the size of baseballs in my village. Now, mind you, they're not as valuable as you might think because they need to be cut a certain way and they lose value, but they're very valuable. And he says...
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
The Danes don't let us mine our rubies, our gold, our lithium, or our gas. He said it's time for a rebellion against the Danes. The younger people of Nook, the younger people of Greenland, they want to be rich. And oh my goodness, do they have wealth in Greenland. incomprehensible amounts of wealth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
We are talking that Greenland could be the new Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Russia, Permian Basin, Marcellus Shale, and the Balkan all mixed into one. America should want those resources for our country, and Greenland should want them for their country. We'd be far more willing and able to develop them than Denmark and the socialist Greta Thunberg environmentalists from Copenhagen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
In the long run, they will be developed by someone. There are three options of who will control Greenland. America, Russia, or China. America, Russia, or China. You're trying to tell me the Danish military is going to be able to fend off the Chinese Communist Party?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Greenland is so strategic, this is the third and final point, that during World War II, the United States occupied it just to keep Germans from seizing it. After the war, we briefly proposed buying it back, but instead we gave it back. We never should have given it back. We should have insisted on a sale and assumed control of it. Acquiring Greenland would give America a sense of growing vitality.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
There would be a new American territory for ambitious Americans to go and develop. And I could tell you in my short time there, but it was very thorough. There is so much opportunity. You are talking about places where resorts can be developed. Entrepreneurs can deepen their roots. The fishing, the wildlife, the hunting, the natural experience. It is a... Perfect fit to the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
And people say, oh, you know, Charlie, we should, you know, America shouldn't expand. Well, Alaska is part of the United States. We purchased Alaska and that was a good purchase for America. Greenland for the 21st century would not just be good. It is essential. It is integral.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Strategic location, defense against threats, access to key resources, preventing China's expansion and economic and military advantage. It was an honor to be able to see Greenland firsthand and right up close. I never thought I would do it. And I think the table is set for President Trump to make the art of the deal happen, the art of the possible.

China is expanding and it's not a matter of even expansionism. If you are against the acquisition of Greenland, then you should say, let's give Alaska back to Russia. You must be consistent. You should say, hey, we should just give the Louisiana purchase back to the French.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Greenland is a small population of people that want to be great, that want their country back, that want to come to greatness. And they were so complimentary of America. They said Americans, Americans are the nicest. They are the kindest. This is what the Greenlandic government said in 2021 when it scuttled the search for oil there. Quote, the future does not lie in oil.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
The future belongs to renewable energy. The government said it wants to take co-responsibility for combating the global climate crisis. So what they're saying is they want the people of Nook to remain poor because of climate change. No growth. Really, how are you going to power all of your AI data centers?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
So basically, let's keep Greenland in the third world while they are sitting on liquid gold and a lot of liquid gold. By the way, you could structure a deal very similar to Alaska where there is a trust, basically a universal basic income where the people of Greenland could all get royalties off of the extracted oil, natural gas, and minerals. It works in Alaska, and it could work in Greenland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
They have 50,000 people in Greenland, and they could all be partners in this deal. And how about lithium or nickel, the key ingredients of technology, of the technology of the future? This stuff does not just come ex nihilo and fall from the skies and the heavens. What do you think your semiconductors are made of? What do you think your phones are made of?
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
These environmentalists, they never want us to dig or search or exploit. At the same time, they want to have an AI data center so you could go make an image of a cat dancing to YMCA. Well, what do you think actually powers the ability for you to be able to do that? Rare earth, by the way, is a huge component.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
Do you know that the Chinese Communist Party controls 80% of all of the planet's rare earth minerals? So here you have Greenland with wonderful people, strategically located, liquid gold, nickel, lithium, rare earth minerals. It has 56,000 people. So you're not talking about potentially assuming 56 million people, 56,000 people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
And by the way, if the Democrats all of a sudden say, oh, I don't know, you guys let 10,000 people a day into this country illegally. I think 56,000 people in a separate territory is perfectly legitimate. If we're going to get liquid gold, natural resources, strategic infrastructure, replacement against Russia and China.

I mean, it's nothing but benefits, but there is this other component makes America dream again, that we're not just this sad, low testosterone, beta male slouching in our chair, allowing the world to run over us. It is the, it is the resurrection of masculine American energy. It is the return of manifest destiny.

Gulf of America, we're taking back the Panama Canal, and we're going to do whatever it takes to have Greenland be part of the United States of America. And look, you can let the locals make decisions about their sovereignty. Do a referendum. If there is a referendum, the Danes will lose. I guarantee that. If there is a referendum, the Danes will lose. The Greenlandic people love America.

They're wearing MAGA hats on the side of the street, cheering. I mean, how hard is it to get a MAGA hat in Greenland? It's pretty remarkable. This is about strengthening and solidifying the United States of America. We've tried many times to try to purchase Greenland. It's not a new idea. But also, the Danes should sit this one out.

How many hundreds of billions of dollars have we spent on European security and defense over the years? On NATO, on our military bases. We pay for all of their national defense. And Denmark is a small country. Small, nice, fine, whatever. I think they're technically a Scandinavian country. I think they are Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark. I think they are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
I Just Got Back From Greenland: What I Saw
It's probably nothing against Denmark, but the Danes are not going to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party. That's a joke. Not going to stand up to this behemoth in the East. For the well-being of the people of Greenland, come under the United States of America. You'll be wealthier. You'll be happier. You'll be protected. You'll be safer.

Hey everybody, there is a spiritual darkness in the Democrat Party. I don't say that lightly.

Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
You know, I'll say that the it didn't feel long. It felt like I had a great flow. It felt kept everyone on the edge of their seat. Senator, the Democrats, excluding one person, there was one woman in red that stood up, decided to just ignore and not applaud. D.J. Daniel, the 13 year old with brain cancer who got awarded there. I mean, Senator, do any of your colleagues mention that afterwards?
The Charlie Kirk Show

I mean, how is this how are you supposed to do business with people that don't even applaud a kid with brain cancer? Help the audience understand.

They're anticipating a lot of protests, a lot of La Raza Students for Justice of Palestine. So our security is going to have their work cut out for them. Last night, last night we streamed a pretty light here on Real America's Voice and also all of our streaming platforms. Our reaction. To the speech last night, the not the State of the Union, but Donald Trump's address to Congress.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
Views of Trump's speech. Let's put this up on screen. I've been around this space about 13 years. I'm just drawing from memory. It is very rare to have a 76 percent approval rating of a joint session of speech to Congress. Very rare. Very unusual. If I remember, Biden might be high 50s at the watermark and then maybe low 50s.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
Even Obama might have been high 60s, low 70s during the high Obama period, then went down from there. We can we can probably look at other speeches and reactions. That's 76 percent of Americans that approve President Trump's speech. And the Democrats, instead of at least having some sort of an agreeable attitude.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
Their bitterness and their sourness towards America is disturbing and it is revealing of a darker sickness that has infected our politics. This is one of my favorite parts of the speech, and I want to get your reaction. Senator, some of your colleagues said, well, we need a bipartisan border bill to secure the border. We can't secure the border unless we get a bipartisan border bill.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
Turns out we actually just needed a new president, Placut 120.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So so, Senator, first, explain all the jeering. Is that the Democrats standing up for Joe Biden? And secondly, the border is now secure.

Now, it says in the U.S. Constitution that the president shall give a joint address to Congress. And this was a joint session of Congress, not technically a State of the Union. You know, State of the Unions used to be delivered. Just a fun little tidbit. They used to be written. It's a new phenomenon, actually, of State of the Unions given orally.

You will see a conversation that I had with Governor Newsom of California that at times got a little spicy. The premise at times was, hey, Charlie, what is the path forward for Democrats? I said, I'm not one to give advice. If only I had the conversation afterwards, I would have said, you know, Governor Newsom, stand up for the kid with brain cancer and applaud. Probably good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
You know, some Democrat consultant is about to make a bunch of money, Senator. I'm going to say, you know, next time, guys, when the kid with cancer gets announced, make sure you applaud. Senator, I want to bring this now back to legislative action. What did you hear from the president about legislative agenda?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
This is not going to get as much coverage, but tax cuts, because right now we've seen, yes, some really good personnel wins, and thank you for that, but we've got to start seeing laws passed so President Trump can start signing bills into law. What's going on here?

We are in a very unique moment in American politics where the opposition party continues to double and triple down on wildly radical and unpopular political opinions while demanding that the other side are hateful, racist, and terrible people. It's quite a perplexing political strategy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
For us, it makes our job quite easy because President Trump just keeps on saying things that are very agreeable that should have wide bipartisan support. For example, cutting all of the waste in our federal budget. One of my favorite moments was President Trump going through some of the insane spending that Doge has identified. It's hilarious. It's spot on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
And this is why 76% of people who watched the speech loved it. Play cut 119.

President Trump identifying this waste. We all deserve a government that is more efficient. Who could be against the Department of Government Efficiency? Well, the Democrats can because they value government more than God. They value the state more than family. They feel that they value the bureaucracy more than community. For them, the state is their source of meaning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
It is their reason for existence. It gives them purpose. It fills the existential void. In Viktor Frankl's book, Man's Search for Meaning, one of the greatest books written over the last hundred years, says that the number one thing outside of food and water that men, collective men, men and women, mankind seek is not sex, it's not power, but it is meaning. It is the will of
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
To meaning and for Democrats, the state gives them that meaning because they have very disturbing personal lives. They're filled with this dark spiritual sickness, as you can see. And that is I think that's one of the main reasons why they were so nasty last night. They were nastier than any time during Trump's first term during an equivalent State of the Union or joint session of Congress.

Because President Trump never actually went after the rank and file of the bureaucracy during the first term. He did a lot of things they didn't like. They called him a Russian agent. He closed the southern border. He did all these things. But going after the federal bureaucracy, that is their wholly protected class. Play cut 149.

Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
One of the greatest accomplishments that he has been able to, to celebrate is that we have a secure border. There's nobody invading our country anymore. It doesn't happen. It's gone. There is no more southern border invasion. He has been president for six weeks. And we have a country that is bubbling back to life.

Now, I want to play some of the highlights here, but upon further reflection, these events, these joint sessions of Congress are largely political theater. You stand up for the stuff you like. You sit down for the stuff you like. But traditionally, everybody stands up during the agreeable stuff. You stand up for the stuff where if you don't applaud, you could look kind of bad.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
So, of course, the Democrats, they stayed seated when Donald Trump said we had a secure southern border. He stayed seated when he was talking about how he was marshalling resources to underserved communities that were struck by wildfires. They, of course, the Democrats refused to applaud during Donald Trump's moment saying that he wanted to broker peace with Ukraine. And optics really matter here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
But this... went to a whole different level the democrats were of course trying to interrupt him throughout his entire speech you had al green with his rod trying to interrupt donald trump it's important that we recognize and we realize that the democrats don't just have a political problem The Democrats do not just have a policy problem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
There is a spiritual sickness that has infected the Democrat Party. And I don't say that lightly. You know, usually the political theater, okay, it is what it is. It went to a whole different level last night, a whole different level. And it takes a lot for me to say this. President Trump had this amazing moment with a young man by the name of D.J. Daniel. D.J.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
Daniel is a 13-year-old battling cancer. DJ Daniel has always wanted to be a law enforcement officer, and he's been sworn in as a ceremonial law enforcement officer with police departments across the country. He lifts people's spirits. He has an amazing smile. Who could not support DJ Daniel?

I'm not crying. You're crying. I mean, it's beyond a tearjerker. It moves you at a level of the soul. It's not political. It's what makes us human beings. It is a moment that should bring the country together, not divide it, no matter how much you hate Trump. So here's President Trump in a now very viral moment appointing 13-year-old DJ Daniel to be an honorary member of the U.S. Secret Service.

That's a kid with brain cancer who might not be around much longer. Everybody at home loved it. But look who didn't. That's the Democrats. During that exact moment, when President Trump was celebrating the ceremonial promotion of DJ Daniel, they are sitting, scowling with bitterness. Everybody, we are not the same. We're not built the same. We don't see the world the same.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
I hate talking like this. I don't know what has infected the base of the Democrat Party, but it can only be an invisible dark force that could be called whatever you want. Demonic, satanic, you could fill in the dots. But they hate you and they hate the country and they hate us so much that they also hate 13-year-olds with brain cancer. Now, there's no spin, by the way. Show that picture again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
Show the picture. I want one media pundit and one member of the Democrat Party to show me that is your Democrat Party. Republicans would always stand during the ceremonial agreeable stuff when Joe Biden would do similar stuff like this. Political pageantry is normal. What is not normal...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
is for an entire political party to stay seated during a nonpolitical, humane moment that elevates us and thinks about the beautiful things because the Democrat Party is ugly to the core. There is a spiritual cancer in the Democrat Party, a sickness that is beyond what we're able to describe in words. They are darker than anything we have ever realized.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
And praise the Lord that we won and they can never get close to power because they would not even put two hands together to applaud the kid with brain cancer. There's something demented about your party, Democrats, demented to the core. And it's not just that three people didn't stand. Your entire party. Stay seated.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
How many of the Democrats that are seated, which is all of them, regularly go to church and believe that there is a God or a synagogue or whatever? How many of those people do you think would write that God is a top priority in their life? I bet a lot of them would write government as a top priority in their life. The state is a top priority in their life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Dems Need to Stand Up — Then Wake Up
The bureaucracy is a top priority in their life. If you are ever asked by liberal friends or relatives or Democrats, oh, you know, we all want the same thing. No, we don't.

So I want to just make sure this is framed correctly for everybody, that this was not a technical State of the Union address. This was the kind of setup of the administration.

THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
I think you should roll Border Patrol into DOD. It would fix a lot of problems. Oh, yeah. It would be run differently, better funding. By the way, it would end all the funding. Could he just do that unilaterally?

I'm not a member of the Israeli nation, so I don't have that strong of opinions of it. I actually got to know his son. His son's pretty cool. So I'm guessing he means Yair Netanyahu. So by the way, I can answer the question however I want. What do I think of Yair Netanyahu?

Awesome guy. Because it doesn't say BB. He's a colorful guy. So therefore, I answer the question, right? You know, we're not apologists here. No, I'm just saying. He said, Charlie, what do you think of Yair? Yair is great.

And I think that's so important because people like James Lankford and people like, you know, I'm not going to let him go for this one. No, no. I'm telling you, he's done. He is gone. And all these Democrats that were like, you need this ridiculous. Now, I want you to think about if we would have lived in James Lankford's world. Because people might say I'm being unfair.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
Let's say if he got his way. Do you know that Trump would not be able to close the border right now? One point eight million. It would have handcuffed Trump's ability. It would have robbed Trump's term of the ability to close the border. That was James Lankford's bipartisan.

No, exactly. Totally. I just hope all of you guys in Oklahoma know, James Lankford, you're done. We're not going to let you run for dog catcher, for water reclamation district, for mosquito abatement director, U.S. senator or governor. Is that an office? Oh, I'm sure there is. Hey, it's Oklahoma. You got 50-50 Native American reservations. I got all sorts of different jobs there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
You know, half the state of Oklahoma should become phenomenal. Governor should be the next. He's great. No, Lankford's done and he's not up till 2028. But, well, I got my eyes right on you. You're you're at the top of the list.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
But the reason being is because he went out there and brokered this deal and he completely gave the Democrats this talking point saying we have to do this bipartisan border deal. And by the way, it was never necessary. And I think we would have won by even more if it wasn't for Lankford.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
Like that actually persuaded some people in the middle, gave them a chance of a talking point, gave them some over the top stuff. The Democrats just kept saying it over and over again. And on campus, I would get that question a lot. And I was like, OK, Lankford, I remember you. And it was none of it was necessary. We didn't need a bipartisan border bill. You needed a president. And I don't.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
Blake, I want you to just riff on this for a second. We're running a little out of time here. But how profoundly our border is closed is pretty amazing right now. I mean, it's effectively sealed.

We've done our job. And Trump, to his great credit, is now demonstrating you didn't need any of that stuff. The border is completely secure. And not only is it one of his greatest accomplishments. And again, Dems on campus, they go stone cold silent when I say that the border is completely sealed because they can't even process.

President Donald Trump continued by talking about how he declared an emergency on the southern border, something that the Democrats do not like and they don't support. Play cut 120.

Blake, so we can go into more detail here, but just more broadly, you know, we're talking about Doge, America's back. What do you think of the vibe, the tone that President Trump struck here? It feels as if he's resolutely on offense and not letting up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
And it was quite a barn burning speech in many different ways. President Trump listing off his accomplishments, his vision, his agenda for the country. And of course, all of the impediments that the Democrats are going to throw up. Now, we see this a lot where Democrats refuse to stand. Democrats refuse to applaud. But it's worse than ever.

Tyler, just kind of from the Internet vibe here, most of America doesn't watch the speech. Everyone kind of goes to their teams. But was there anything the Democrats did to win over leaners, independents? In fact, I think President Trump did a lot to probably bring anybody that might have been like, I'm not sure about this Doge thing further into our camp.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME: Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special
I thought he delivered it very effectively. I thought that the way he went about it was a master class. And I'm not just saying that because he's a friend and we support him. I thought he, a lot of center, right? People in my life were texting me very favorably throughout the speech. Tyler.

And literally, there was one moment where Donald Trump called out a young man with brain cancer becoming an agent of the Secret Service. And Democrats still did not stand up and applaud. If you will not stand up and applaud for a young boy who becomes a member of the Secret Service in an honorary way. There's something really sick and messed up about you. Okay, we have Blake.

Well, Gaza is a very interesting piece of the Middle East. Its history dates back all the way to 15th century BCE. It was an important city in ancient Egypt and even the Philistines. Seems that there's always been conflict around this specific sliver.

You've been holding the line, doing great work here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
It's a great sign. And that's also just mentioned that with maximum Democrat opposition, every trick in the parliamentarian handbook. Can you speak about that? You got Senator Schatz from Hawaii who's saying he's going to delay everything over USAID. I mean, it's like every possible trick. How how is that made it a little bit more difficult?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
And how do you navigate such delay tactics by the Democrats?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Yeah, and again, it is about making government more efficient. And just so everyone understands, from the 2019 to 2020 fiscal year to today, so in about four years of fiscal year, our federal budget has nearly doubled. Nearly doubled. And I just hope everyone understands that, that there was almost a pre-COVID baseline, and the post-COVID baseline is so extraordinary. What is our federal budget?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
It's going to be about $6 trillion-ish, right? If you count this reconciled fiscal year, is that about right? $6 trillion-ish?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Let's show the map. Now, when you talk about Israel, Israel is about the side of New Jersey. Israel, as it is in this particular map, is the turquoise on the map. The more brown color, as I see it presented, is what would be called the Palestinian Authority. This is a very important point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
So I want to dive deeper into the Doge issue, specifically USAID. Your colleagues are losing it over the USAID situation, which is one of the most wasteful, grotesque agencies. It's actually a very good one for President Trump and Elon Musk to focus on out of the gate because it's all about funding silly pet projects externally and not doing anything internally. Let's play just some of this here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
This is... Cut. Let's just actually listen to Caroline Levitt list out some of the waste from USAID. Play cut 64.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Senator, this is where our taxpayer dollars are going. And they're mad that Elon and Doge are putting a stop to it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
The Palestinian Authority, what usually here is the West Bank, meaning it's west of the Jordan River, is Judea and Samaria. There you'll have Hebron. There you have Nablus. There you have the major metropolitan centers of the Palestinian Authority. What most people don't understand, though, is that there is a separate area of Arab-Palestinian Authority control, which is not contiguous.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
So let's emphasize that for a second, which is we live under the appearance that there are co-equal branches, that the first executive branch, the legislative branch and the Supreme Court, that there's tension between them. You're speaking about a fourth branch of government that was never authored by the founders, the administrative state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
And technically, that should fall under the vested authority of the president in Article 2. They don't believe that. And speak about what we are really barreling towards. We are barreling towards... a constitutional crisis, and I think the Supreme Court will rule correctly on this, of who actually runs the bureaucracy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
And this is exactly why they're going to try to do everything they can to stop Russ vote. Russ vote is prepared.

It is discontinuous. And that is the Gaza Strip. You can see the Gaza Strip right there, which is positioned near the southwest corner of the state of Israel. The Gaza Strip is gorgeous. It's beautiful. It's right on the Mediterranean. It has rolling hills, vineyards, orchards. It legitimately could be the new Beirut. Well, when Beirut was actually very nice. It could be a Hong Kong.

For those of you that watch Star Trek, in Star Trek II, The Wrath of Khan, there is a fictional training exercise called Kobayashi Maru or Kei Maru.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
In this, it was an exercise designed to test a cadet's character and ability to stay in control under pressure. The potential cadet must decide whether or not to try and rescue the damaged Kobayashi Maru ship or leave it destroyed. If a cadet tries to rescue the ship, they'll face an insurmountable enemy force.

The exercise is intended to help cadets learn to deal with the emotional toll of defeat. Now there's only one individual, and of course this fictional story in Star Trek II Wrath of Khan, that was ever able to beat the Kobayashi Maru. And it was Captain James Tiberius Kirk, no relation, who was the only one ever to beat the exercise. And how did he do it? By hacking the simulation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
What Elon Musk has done successfully via Doge is he has hacked the matrix. He won a set piece battle that was impossible. And the bad guys knew it. So the system had to be completely reprogrammed to make success possible. Reject the premise and hack the matrix. Front page of politico.com. Quote, they've done their homework. The unexpected power of Musk's digital assault on Washington.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
If the rules are rigged, change the rules. Elon Musk campaign to cut Washington bureaucracy is aiming at a very specific, very sensitive digital power center. the federal IT infrastructure. Musk and his allies have gained access to the Treasury Department's payment systems. They've commandeered enough control of OPM to send out a mass email offering to federal employees.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Unnamed federal officials tell the Washington Post. Anna Lewis, who is the former director of the Technology Transformation Services under GSA, says, quote, Elon's team, they've done their homework. Going where the majority of the volume of government transaction data is very strategic. Elon Musk has rejected the rules.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
It could be a Singapore. It could be a beautiful beacon. But there's been a lot of conflict over Beirut. Gaza throughout the years. So Gaza, we'll just kind of fast forward to more modern time. Of course, we had the creation of the state of Israel in the 1940s. And as the creation of the state of Israel happened, there was a lot of conflict of, well, who's actually going to control Gaza?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Instead of playing the game of the Kobayashi Maru, he went and changed the rules and hacked the matrix. We're going after the computers. Give us the passwords.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
What Elon has done is he has consolidated technological control for the president, by the way, as his emissary, as his ambassador, as his representative, as his special government employee to say, we can now send mass emails to the entire federal government. Did you know prior to Elon Musk showing up and doing this, there was no way to be able to email everyone at .gov?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
There is no federal directory of all the employees. There is no way to be able to find out who does what and where the payment systems are. Get me the passwords and you control the federal government. And the rock stars he is bringing in are these young superstars. Here's one of them, cut 91, who's being smeared by the media as, oh, these 19-year-olds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
These 19-year-olds are smarter than the entire combined intelligence of the U.S. Senate if you exclude Mike Lee and Rand Paul. And there's a couple other great ones too. We should be grateful that these young geniuses are giving us a minute of their time. Instead, they're being smeared. They're being attacked. And they better be careful, by the way.

That is one of the young men that Elon has brought into the government. High IQ combined with patriotism is a threat to the establishment.

Interestingly, Gaza was under Egyptian control from 1948 to 1967. It was not formally annexed by Egypt until But Palestinian national identity, whatever that is, however you want to explain it, started to take shape. Now, in 1967, there was something called the Six-Day War, very famous Six-Day War, where Israel captured the Gaza Strip and basically controlled it for the next 40 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
From there, you started to see a lot of people in Gaza that were Arab Palestinian Muslim start to get a little bit discontent. There was a lot of resentment. There was something from 1987 to 1993, which was called the First Intifada. It was an uprising against Israeli occupation that began in Gaza, marking a key moment in what they would call the struggle for self-determination.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
There was also the Oslo Accords that were authored by Bill Clinton, signed in the early 1990s, and established the Palestinian Authority and set the framework for Palestinian self-rule. Now understand, the people of Gaza that call themselves Palestinians, they've always wanted to govern themselves. We don't want to be under Israeli rule. We don't want to be under Israeli rule.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Now, Hamas started to rise up in the late 1980s as a radical Islamic resistance movement. As it started to percolate and manifest, more and more radical anti-Semitic, anti-Jewish, Jew hatred rhetoric started to metastasize in the Gaza Strip. Then in 2005, the big decision was made. In 2005, Israel made the decision to unilaterally withdraw from Gaza.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
dismantling settlements, and evacuating military personnel. Basically, Israel said, forget it. We're done. This is too much headache, too much consternation. It's nothing but problems for us. If you guys really want to govern yourselves, have at it, Gaza. Have at it, Hamas. Have at it, Palestinian Authority.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
A couple years later, in 2007, following violent clashes between Hamas and Fatah, Hamas took complete control of the Gaza Strip, further deepening the political division between Gaza and the West Bank. Now, they've always wanted self-determination, and that's what they got, but they really also wanted more than that. They didn't just want self-determination. They wanted free stuff. They wanted...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
aid. They also wanted Israel not to exist. Now, let me reiterate, Gaza could be a lovely place. The problem is the people who rule it. Israel, in the past time, also captured the entire Sinai. What's notable is they gave back the Sinai, but not Gaza in the peace deal. The whole idea was land for peace. We're going to give you land and we're going to get peace. But land for peace has never worked.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Hamas wants to destroy Israel on the most radical elements of Islamic fundamentalism to control the Gaza Strip. Now, as I keep that map up on screen for just one more second. All of the activity on October 7th originated from the Gaza Strip, not from the West Bank. The Gaza Strip was the launching off point. The Gaza Strip, controlled by Hamas, is where they went to the rave concert.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
They went into the kibbutzes. They went into the nurseries. They went into the little schools. They went into the synagogues. It was the launching off point in the Gaza Strip, not in the West Bank. So that fast forward now to today, where it's a major mess. When Israel has now done their response to the horrific, unspeakable mini Holocaust on October 7th, it has all been in the Gaza Strip.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
It has been focused on the Gaza Strip. And the untold military story, which honestly the media has had a lot to cover the last year and a half, is yes, the IDF has been largely successful, but not nearly as much as they would have liked. And this is a pattern that America experienced in Vietnam, and America experienced in Afghanistan, and America experienced in Iraq, with a small determined...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

fighting force in their home neighborhoods and in their homeland can be very difficult to defeat. They get stronger the more you repress them. They get more of a fighting spirit. The snipers and the dodge and duck type strategy on the streets of Gaza have been very difficult for the IDF to completely eliminate and wipe out Hamas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
They've done a pretty good job, but Hamas has yet to be totally and completely defeated. Now, just a reminder, polled in December of 2023, Palestinians in Gaza overwhelmingly support what happened on October 7th. Now, 72% of respondents said they believed Hamas' decision to launch the cross-border rampage in southern Israel was correct. Now, let's be honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
How do you conduct a poll in the midst of a war zone? So let me actually give you a piece of data that is, I think, even more compelling. That the people who did October 7th, the terrible savages, when they returned to Gaza, they were celebrated as heroes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
That is more persuasive to me that there was parties in the streets of the people that returned from the horrific acts on October 7th and they came to the streets of Gaza. That's more persuasive than some poll that is being done. I mean, they don't even have phones in Gaza. I don't know what they have or they don't have. That is actually a much stronger data point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
So this is a big problem for Israel. The question, is this a big problem for the United States? Is this a problem that we want to inherit? Is this a problem that we should have to supervise? Is this a problem that we should have to babysit and nanny because the Egyptians had control of it and they said, no way. Israel had control of it, and they said, no way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
And it's kind of in this murky middle ground. And those of us that are America first, it is a very serious question of how should we approach the Gaza Hamas situation? Well, we're going to find out what President Trump means by own Gaza. Does he mean own it like he owns Mar-a-Lago? Or does he mean that we're going to own the activity and be responsible for managing a broker deal?

If I were to infer what led to this clip we're about to play, it was obviously his meeting and press conference with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, is that there was likely a dialogue that was occurring of all the people that don't want to assume control of Gaza. The Egyptians don't want it. The Jordanians don't want it. Israel doesn't want it.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
Now, is this the art of the deal? Is this to get more moderate Arab countries to step up? Is this cutting Israel in line? We don't know. But President Trump was reading prepared remarks there. This was not off the cuff. It's very important. This was not President Trump just answering a question from a reporter. He was reading prepared remarks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
So it begs that there's some sort of chess game going on here. But let's kind of go through our red lines without knowing the exact maneuvers and counter moves that are happening. Let's go through some red lines. Number one, under no circumstances are we going to allow refugees from Gaza to come into the United States of America. I can't imagine that is even on the table.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
I don't think President Trump would allow that. But it needs to be said. It needs to be emphasized. While we're doing the largest deportation effort in American history, which is going very well. We got Gitmo, El Salvador. We got planes going all over the place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
We're not going to go let in a bunch of Ilan Omars that are going to be singing Alu Akbar on college campuses, burning American flags and waving Palestinian propaganda in the faces of American students. We're not going to put up with that. So the answer is zero. Not going to happen. Zero. And number two. is that we're not going to have any US troops fighting in Gaza.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
That would be a detrimental mistake. That would be catastrophic. Now, when President Trump says we're going to own it, does that mean that we're going to own the situation? We're going to diplomatically handhold it? We're going to bring stakeholders together? I'm not sure. But we are not going to have a single U.S. troop. We're going to speak out against that with every fiber our being.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
We are not going to get involved in another Iraq, another Afghanistan. By the way, to the best of my knowledge, Israel has never even asked for U.S. troops. All they want is the ability and the green light to be able to wipe out Hamas. But I do think we have to also proceed with some caution here. On this program, we have been outspoken critics of nation building.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
I don't think that's what President Trump is talking about here. But I think it's within the same potential topic here. That nation building is one of the things that we've been most critical of. in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Libya, in Syria, in Ukraine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
This is likely President Trump trying to create more leverage, the same way he did with Canada, same he did with Colombia, same way he did with Mexico. So I trust Trump 100% to navigate this. He is the master, and in him I trust on this. At the same time, though, we need to make sure that we articulate the principles that built his entire presidency and built the entire movement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
The occupation of Gaza is not worth the life of a single Marine from Oklahoma. Period. It's not worth it. That is not America's role to go put our most prized possession, our 18, 19 and 20 year old young men on the front lines to go fight in a region that has been described as sand and death. The IDF can handle that. We should give them a green light to go finish the job that I completely support.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
But limitations on American foreign policy intervention is something that has been widespread approval. The president believes this. And so this situation in front of us is probably going to be developing in real time. But the Jordanians and the Egyptians have to step up. If all of a sudden we're going to say, hey, get out of Gaza, well, the Jordanians don't want them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Gaza, DOGE, and... Star Trek?
The Egyptians don't want them. But I think this definitely creates a lot of momentum to force Arab neighbors to take Palestinians. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here with New Year's resolutions.

This is the untold story of this administration because they're so—the media just doesn't cover anything. This is a Gen Z millennial takeover of the federal government. And we always thought it would be coming from the left, but this is the geriatric, the kind of nursing home regime that has been glide-pathing the country into oblivion.

No, the young guns are taking over the country for the better, defending the president, issuing executive orders. Well, the president's issuing them, but putting them on the desk and offering them.

It's just amazing to me. I want to get into the details here of your book and your experience, but in April of 2023, if my timeline is correct, they decided to make Dylan Mulvaney one of the faces of Bud Light and do this whole thing.

Just by coincidence. But you make a really astute point, which is that when we're told, for example, at USAID by their defenders, well, we're sending American values abroad. So we think... We're sending like pocket constitutions to Aboriginal tribes in Australia. Like, wow. Like, you're trying to tell me that the poor people of Sudan are going to learn about Thomas Jefferson. No, no, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Defunding the Globalist American Empire + The Fall of Bud Light
When they say we're sending American values, we are sending gender transition clinics to Sri Lanka. We're sending the lowest aspects of the radical trans agenda. We're sending gay pride flags to Thailand. We're trying to convert the part of the world that might not believe that there are 242 genders.

I want to talk a nonpolitical thing for a second here, Senator, and I'm trying to have Ryan pull the tape. Can you, for our audience, inform them how remarkable of a victory it was for Wyatt at the NCAA championship? I mean, you're a wrestler yourself. I mean, it was one of the most amazing upsets in wrestling history. Just kind of your thoughts here, Senator.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
He is. He truly is. And just one more point on this. Understand who he defeated. He defeated, I can't remember his name, from Minnesota. He won two national championships before, has not even been taken down since 2019, tried to go to the NFL, tried to go to the WWE, and came back, and then Wyatt upset him. It's one of the more amazing things I've ever seen.

He won the Olympics. He won the gold medal. Yeah, minor detail. He is the Olympic champion, the gold medal recipient. Just remarkable.

So the Liberation Day will ensue, and I agree with everything you just said. Final question here, Senator, and I want to make sure we dive into this.

If you want to have a picture in a window and a reminder of what we are up against and what your kids are learning in public schools and when you send them to college, I'm going to play you a piece of tape. This guy, his name is Elie Mistal. Elie Mistal kind of looks like Eddie Murphy from that one movie. I'm trying to remember which one it is. Anyway, he's a clown of a philosopher.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Nevertheless, if you send your child to college, they are learning this worldview. When you go to college, this is the worldview that you have to go into debt to learn. This is the predominant viewpoint amongst many Democrat circles. And he's taken very seriously on the view. Listen, oh yeah, he's a very serious person. And it's outright race hatred. Play cut to 17.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Look, plain and simple, he hates the country. It's easy to say, oh, you know, white men abolish slavery. Hilariously, though, for Elie Mestal, you got to wonder, hey, pal, would you also get rid of the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Amendment? But it's much cheaper than that. He has disgust and disdain for this nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
He and his Democrat friends want to get rid of it and build a replacement on the ashes. And that replacement will be far worse. A huge amount of the left is just pure, unadulterated resentment. What he can't deny is that America has been insanely successful from the very beginning. Hugely accomplished. The greatest nation in the history of the world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Elie Mestal could never accomplish the things that the greatest Americans did. Having to read about it traumatizes him. He's a loser, a J.B. Pritzker type, whose entire career is being a race grifter. He probably makes plenty of money, but it's humiliating.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
And the dark truth is there's a lot of people like Mistal, a lot of people who immigrate to this country while holding nothing but resentment in their hearts. In March 2022, he actually said the United States Constitution is trash. He said, quote, We act like this thing that was enacted in stone by the finger of God, when actually it was hotly contested and debated.

Scrawled out over a couple of weeks in the summer of Philadelphia in 1787 with a bunch of rich white politicians making deals with each other. Why is it that they hate Elon so much and they hate President Trump so much? Well, it's because they are wealthy white men. It's because they are the archetype of everything that they are told to hate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
What's hilarious about his critique is that the Constitution was actually scrawled out over a summer. And despite that, it's vastly better than anything Mistal could ever write. And the Constitution was not written for the times. It was written to stand the test of time. The Constitution has always been the envy of the world. It is a massive human advancement.

It's a true story happening right there in southern Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Supreme Court very well might come in and rule. The girls must be subject to that humiliation ritual.

It's important to play tapes and clips like this to remind you what we defeated in November and what we are up against because the enemy is coming back to the gates.

Lower propensity voters, the people that showed up in massive numbers for President Trump, many of whom decided to embrace the couch instead of the ballot.

Now, I'm not even here to criticize the people who did not show up to vote.

I think you made a big mistake. But honestly, the fact you went and voted for Donald Trump back in November shows that you can vote, shows that you can get off the couch.

Politics is an afterthought for many of our Trump supporters. They have common sense and American values, but they are voters who must be chased. And President Trump did so much of that work for us.

Politics is their religion. You may hate President Trump, but he resurrected a dead GOP back to life. Voters who weren't on anyone's data rolls came out of the woodwork to vote for President Trump.

I understand that it's hard to pass bills. But Congress needs to get into gear. Congress needs to show real results to the conservative base, not just performative congressional hearings.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
We need to get down into the basics and the details. And we need to start passing bills that will improve the livelihood of the American people. President Trump can only do so much. And we are seeing the southern border completely secured. The greatest success story so far of President Trump's second term is undoubtedly the southern border. It is crickets on the southern border.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
The invasion is over. People don't even think about it anymore because it is done. Mass deportations are going very well. We need to get those numbers up even more. The economy, we're not really sure where it's going yet. We got the tariff news, and we're keeping our eyes on that. That is Liberation Day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
But I have all the confidence that President Trump will be able to drill baby drill and be able to liberate the economy from the prior hostage-taking. But we need to prove that when people go out of their way to vote for Republicans, we deliver. When they vote for Republicans, we need to prove that Republicans deliver. Trump is delivering.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
But voters tell us every single day when we knock on their door in Wisconsin, they say, well, Trump is fighting for me, but Congress is not. So Congress needs to get off their tail right now and start to prove to the American people that they are fighting for us. It is now April 2nd. We are nearing the 100th day of President Trump's second term.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Other than the Lake and Riley Act and a debt ceiling hike, what has Congress done so far? Now, unfortunately, the House is out of session right now. I think that's crazy. I understand the argument where, hey, we had to go fill those two Florida House seats to be able to pass this big, massive 100-day reconciliation bill. The Senate only gets two reconciliation bills this year.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
We get two bites at the apple. The last Congress was basically the least productive ever. But this might break the record. And I'm telling you right now, Mike Johnson and John Thune and anybody in Congress, the midterms will go the way of Wisconsin in the entire country if you don't start passing meaningful legislation. In the past, Congress has been unable to pass anything besides spending bills.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
And we might fall short of that. This is Speaker Johnson talking about how a handful of Republicans just joined every House Democrat to take down a rule. Now, I don't want to get too deep into this. This is about remote proxy voting. I don't even know all the details surrounding it. I'm very much against remote voting. If you can't go be in person to do the job, then don't be a member of Congress.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
I know the counterargument is, look, Ana Paulina, who obviously is amazing, and Kat Kamik are having children. And don't you want to accommodate their ability to vote and also be with their kids? Of course I do. But you got to make a choice. You have to go be with your kids or you have to go serve in Congress. If Congress can vote by proxy, we might as well abolish Congress.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

give them offices in their district, and they'll never meet together. There are constitutional questions around it. And because of this situation that unfolded this week, Congress is adjourned. And we're not going to see any results this week because of it. Play cut 209.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
So Congress is now out of session because of a dispute about remote voting. Look, of course, we support moms and we support people to raise their kids. But you got to choose either raise your children or serve your constituency in Congress. Maybe try to do both. Maybe bring your kids to Congress. But this proxy voting is a terrible idea.

So right now, Congress is not in session. Think of all the things Congress should be doing right now. Abolish the Department of Education, ratify Trump's personnel cuts, make more spending cuts to the waste, fraud, and abuse that Doge has found, and that's just spending. Extend Trump's tax cuts, create no tax on tips, and that's on revenue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
And within the legislation, as long as it's primarily spending, you could potentially include small pieces of additional lawmaking. What if Congress gave more money to Border Patrol, a firm that Trump's interpretation of immigration laws is correct, or to cut off some of the lawsuits against the administration's deportations? I forget sometimes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Do we control Congress right now, or does Hakeem Jeffries control Congress? Do we control the United States Senate? Now, John Thune deserves some credit. The personnel selection and confirmation in front of the Senate has been going well. John Thune, you've been proving some people wrong, and I'm happy to acknowledge it. You've whipped your votes. We got Tulsi. We got Bobby.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Good on you, John Thune. Mike Johnson, I got to tell you, I'm in full agreement with you on the Ana Paulina Luna thing. Ana Paulina is a great friend of mine. She's a Turning Point alumni. I think she's totally off base here. We're going to just get proxy voting. You might as well just eliminate Congress. And it now has triggered a closure of Congress for this week. But we can have disagreements.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
It's all spirited. It's good. And by the way, since Congress is doing nothing else, just the Senate should become an assembly line for every Trump nominee. Fill every judicial slot and fill every appointed position by July 4th. Just get it done. Stay in session on a Saturday to get more appointees in. Do you know? I don't know if you guys knew this.

But in the Constitution, it doesn't say you're not allowed to work on a weekend. I know. I know it's like a shocking revelation because Congress almost never works on a weekend. You know how many of you in this audience have had to work in weekends? I know so many of you right now that are watching and listening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
I'm positive many of you have had to work weekends to feed your family, pull a double double, a double shift of an overnight, a graveyard shift to be able to pay your kids tuition. And yet Congress adjourns because they have a Little disagreement. Do you know that Congress skips most Fridays just to fly home? Just to be able to go home and raise more money and do absolutely nothing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
It is time for Congress to lean in. One of the major reasons that we lost in Wisconsin is that there is a disconnect for the Trump voter between what Trump is doing and what the Republican Party is doing. And we have to close that disconnect. Congress, you guys have got to get off your tail and start passing bills. You have two reconciliation packages you can pass this year.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
And allow me to just tell you more ideas of what you should do. Heavily fund Border Patrol. Give ICE what they need. Fortify the wall. Cut all the waste that Doge has found. Extend the Trump tax cuts. Pass the largest working class tax cut in history. We want a party that is as conservative as its voters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
Voters are not going to keep on rewarding Republicans with more House and Senate majorities if they are not going to fight and if they're not going to keep Congress open and if they're not going to pass bills that are in alignment with what the American people voted for and what they want. And we still have a lot of opportunity. There is time left on the clock.
The Charlie Kirk Show
It's Liberation Day! + The Wisconsin Aftermath
These two reconciliation bills could turbocharge the economy, could bring inflation down, which it's already starting to go down. The price of eggs is going down. And we could see the new golden era, the new golden age. President Trump has signed executive order after executive order after executive order. He needs some reinforcements from Congress.

And if you are not able to mirror that or have that continue in special elections, it's very, very hard to win. Now, look, it's a serious deficit right now. It looks as if it's about, what, 100 and...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Yeah, I don't... So I've been analyzing this data. Let me just kind of repeat this, though, for everyone watching at home, is that these off-year elections are going to continue to be a challenge for our party and our movement, absent a change of strategy and a change of approach from the top down and also the bottom up. Look, we can't blame working class people for not showing up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
We have to do a better job of exciting them, of finding them, and from... bringing and bringing them out to vote in a full grassroots mobilization and getting the mindset right. And let's also just appreciate President Donald Trump's ability to get these voters out, something that people thought was impossible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
The two people of this century that have been able to get low propensity voters out is Barack Obama and Donald Trump. And interestingly, they were both able to get out similar types of low propensity voters. The party has been remade. The Democrats are now going to permanently enjoy this kind of high prop coalition that they've built. And we're still dependent on Trump's magic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
I want to ask Jack this. Jack, theoretically, with maybe a vice president, Jay Vance, being the nominee in 2028, can we win back Democrats? Some of these high prop voters. And can we can we bring the low props to be similar to the turnout of Donald Trump? One of those two things need to happen. Jack, your thoughts.

Yeah, I mean, look, in order for us to compete against the Democrats, Tyler, I want you to just brag on the great work that Turning Point Action did here. Again, we're about results, not just activity. So it doesn't, you know, there's no consolation prize here. But talk about what the Democrats had on the ground in permanent infrastructure to win this Wisconsin Supreme Court seat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
The Republicans need to learn how to win when Trump is not on the ballot. And otherwise, we're going to have a more structural issue. This isn't by no means a black pill, everybody. This is not a I mean, it's not a wonderful night with Wisconsin. We control the White House. We prove that we can win in presidential style elections.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
And by the way, just for those of you keeping score at home, it used to be that we were always so concerned that we could never win the presidential, but we could only win the special. So we've actually solved the far more complex, high stakes riddle. It's Democrats that are now trying to figure out the riddle of how they win a presidential election, especially via the Electoral College.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
So there's no doom or gloom here. But we have to we got to stay really focused on what are the lessons here? Low prop is a lesson and the infrastructure is a lesson. The amount of money that needs to be spent on full-time professional. And I love what Tyler said there. And someone from Chicago just sent me a message. Charlie, what you're talking about is a grassroots professional.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
It is a full-time grassroots operative. I think that's exactly right. I think it's very smart. When we just say full-time people, they say, what is it, like a full-time taxi driver? No, no. It is a grassroots professional. It is their full-time job. It is what they do. The same way, look, if you have a leak in your sink, you call a plumber. If you have a car issue, you go to the mechanic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
If you want to win elections, you need grassroots professionals, otherwise known as community organizers. Right. Blake, comment on, again, this is not catastrophic. It's a wake-up call. It's one that we saw coming and that we knew was coming. Blake, what are the broad lessons for the Republican movement here, not just going into the midterms, but on a more macro basis?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
I'm going to be the very blunt direct communicator. This is not a great map for us right now. And it is demonstrating of a high prop electorate as we have built a low prop party, a 19 point deficit and a now 137,000 vote deficit with 33% reporting. I don't like our odds. I'll be very honest.

According to the World Gold Council, central banks added 1,000 tons of gold in 2024, the third straight year of net gold buying. They understand what many investors don't. Gold is real money.

Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Yes and no. I will say, though, it's just yes. I think I think that is right. I just it's just temperamentally the Democrats have remade themselves where they have they have a easier baseline of people that think politics and meaning are directly correlated together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Our best voters, the ones that put Donald Trump back in the White House, they kind of hate government and they hate politics and they take massive convincing and nudging to vote at all and to get into the system, which is fine. We just got to work through that. And I see it all the time on campuses. Our side asks more questions. Our side does more research.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Our side is more thorough and just trying to figure out like, well, is this person really trustworthy? And Trump was able to overcome all of that with just this power of personality. And remember, David Shore said that even with more turnout, Trump would have won 54 percent of that vote. And so even more turnout would have elected Trump by more, which it's just remarkable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
So we have to figure out the turnout issue, and the Democrats are building this coalition, which is a very difficult presidential coalition to keep alive. However, in off-year elections, we're going to be in some choppy waters. Jack, your thoughts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Let's begin to kind of wrap it here. So what is the final count here? It looks to be around 11-point margin. It's probably going to land around that, right, Tyler?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Yeah, a couple things. First of all, I would hesitate to say that this is a referendum on Elon or Trump or Doge. This has been a thing for years now. This is almost an identical Supreme Court spring election result from spring of 2023, before Elon was even on the scene and before Trump was the nominee, let alone the president of the United States. So you got to prepare for the media narrative.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Let's put 198 up. This is Tim Walsh, and they're playing out their economic populist, let's just say, messaging. Democrats are going to try to go all in on economic populism. We'll see if it works for them. It's going to be amazing. They're going to be economic populists trying to win high propensity suburban voters. Honestly, they probably could get it done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
High propensity suburban voters at our college educator will vote for anything. They'll vote for their kids to become trans. They'll vote for Black Lives Matter. They'll vote for their police station to get burned down. So maybe they'll do that. I don't know. I mean, just the idea that...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
High propensity voters are going to come back that read the New York Times and listen to NPR are going to come back to the middle, even though, hey, my name is Alexandria Kaiser-Cortez. I'm going to take your home and your 401k, but I won't call you a racist. Might work, honestly. I know a lot of people in the suburbs of Atlanta that would love that message.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
Like, well, so if I don't have a home and I don't have money, but I'm not a racist, deal. I'll vote for you. That's basically what the Democrats are selling. I'm going to take all your stuff. I won't call you a race. So we have to prepare for that. And look, again, guys, we won the biggest of all the prizes. We won the greatest accomplishment in probably American political history.

The grassroots right now are rather upset. I wouldn't say that they're pissed. I'd say they're a little bit ticked off. with how things proceeded tonight.

It's not us losing the presidency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained

Why We Lost in Wisconsin — Explained
I just went state by state, is that the low prop voters did not show up in the numbers that we needed. These are the working class men that showed up for Trump and then they just disappear.

Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program.

Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier.

So talk about how the far left is mobilizing and they are spending a lot of money in the state of Wisconsin. I also want to throw up. Let's go to cut 97. This shows how our voters are very low propensity. This is a strict turnout game. Let's play cut 97, please.

Now, we must be very clear that it is a quagmire. on the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula. This is in Yemen. The Houthis are in Yemen, which is on the western part of the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, right near Oman and Saudi Arabia.

So what they're saying here, and that last one, that's David Shore, who had a great conversation, Ezra Klein, two lefties, but very thoughtful. Senator, what he was saying there at the end is the most astute point when it comes to the Supreme Court race. He says those that have politics as part of their identity tend to be more Democrat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Well, Senator, people who have politics as part of their identity are more likely to vote in a spring off year election for a Supreme Court race. Therefore, our side must drive turnout of low propensity voters. Senator.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
So, Senator, can you contrast what you are feeling on the ground? You know, the state of Wisconsin better than anybody. I would put you number one as a Republican than maybe Scott Walker, because you have won in the hardest of all terrains. I mean, you beat Russ Feingold in 2010. I think you beat him again in 2016, if I remember correctly. And then you won against Mandela Barnes, I think, in 2020.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
I mean, when all the odds are stacked against Senator Johnson, you triumph and you do it through grassroots and you do it with connecting with the mayor's candidates and county commissioners. Can you contrast how it feels on the ground versus a couple of years ago where we lost the Supreme Court race? Do you feel more national attention and more energy versus a couple of years prior?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
So I'm thrilled to hear that. And I know the grassroots are working really hard. Senator, shifting gears for a second now to more broad macro elements. What is your take on this story with Jeffrey Goldberg? The Atlantic, obviously not a great look with, you know, adding the editor in chief, the Atlantic, into a private group chat story. And the strike then subsequent strike on the Houthis.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Many Americans do not even know that there's a country called Yemen, let alone that we should be involved in the Yemenese civil war. President Donald Trump made a decision to authorize American military strikes. Now, regardless of whether or not you agree or disagree with that, that's actually not the core element at play here.
The Charlie Kirk Show

What is your analysis? Your Senate colleagues are acting as if this was the leaking of the invasion of Normandy and an outrageous over the top hyperbolic response. Senator, how are you processing all of this?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Also, I want to now touch on the reconciliation process. How are we proceeding on the one big, beautiful bill? What are you pushing for specifically to try and bring this to be a victory for the border and hopefully spending cuts? We cannot forget spending cuts. Senator, where are we at?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Once this decision was well underway, there was a group chat that was started on a messaging application called Signal. Now, I use Signal quite a lot and I'm sure many of you do as well. It's a secure messaging application where you're able to have messages that automatically delete after an hour, a day, a week or a month. In this group chat was Vice President J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I completely agree. We need massive spending cuts. If we are serious about saving our republic, we need to analyze every single expenditure of the federal government. Senator, thank you so much for your time. And everyone, go out and vote and get someone to vote in the state of Wisconsin. We must win the Supreme Court race. Senator, thank you so much.

In fact, my favorite email says President Trump is working his tail off all day long and has to be distracted by allowing the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic into a group chat. Unacceptable. That is the vibe of the audience, and I think you guys deserve a lot of credit. I want your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com. Do you think Mike Waltz should be fired?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
What do you think is the right course of action post this chat story of the way forward? President Trump had nothing to do with this. By the way, a lot of times people say, oh, it involves Trump. This one, trust me, President Trump is not putting together signal group chats. You could say a lot of stuff. He's not putting together signal group chats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
I want to play some more pieces of tape here, especially the fallout from the Signal chat. Let's go here. This is Mr. Goldberg describing what he saw in the chat. Play cut 143.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
However, you were not supposed to be in there. Never should have happened. Now, understand, Signal has and will is continued to be an authorized method of communication. Joe Biden started that practice and President Trump has continued it. Scott Jennings comments on it. Play cut 145.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Vance, Pete Hegseth, John Ratcliffe, Susie Wiles, Stephen Miller, and many others. Now, let's just begin by saying there were no non-government officials on these group chats. That's a good first start. There was not people that were not supposed to necessarily be informed of what is going on. Well, until something got leaked.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
So let me tell you the biggest concern of all, if that is correct. and it was government devices that everyone was using Signal with, then why did Mike Waltz on a government device have Jeffrey Goldberg saved on his Signal profile? That's a serious question. It's not like this was some carryover when he was in Congress. Jeffrey Goldberg is a chief neocon, a very neoconservative person.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
So is Mike Waltz. Mike Waltz is a maximalist neocon. He is very close to John Bolton on several issues. I've had this discussion with him before. That's fine. President Trump likes to mix it up. He likes to have aggressive and can kind of come in and mediate it, not doubting President Trump's wisdom here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
But it does beg the question that if it's preloaded on a government device and this is your government official channels and communication, then how is it saved in your Signal chat? I know how Signal works. Who actually invited this person into a Signal chat? Seems to be Mike Waltz. That means he's added Jeffrey Goldberg as a contact on Signal since he became National Security Advisor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Now, he could have potentially imported his previous Signal profile onto a government device. Maybe, potentially, but it begs a lot more questions than answers. And just more broadly, what are you as the National Security Advisor doing dialoguing with Jeffrey Goldberg? The room for error is nothing, and praise God, this could have been a lot worse.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We are the only ones on the planet on our side of the ledger who can do this. Nobody else can come even close. The question is timing. I feel like now is a good time as any given POTUS directive to reopen shipping lanes. And then we should go. But POTUS still retains 24 hours of decision space. Now, SM then replies, I believe this is Stephen Miller. I could be incorrect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
I think it's Stephen Miller. As I heard it, the president was clear. Green light. But we soon make clear to Egypt and Europe what we expect in return. We also need to figure out how to enforce such a requirement. E.g., if Europe doesn't remunerate, then what? If the U.S. successfully restores freedom of navigation at great cost, there needs to be some further economic gain extracted in return.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Now, it's presumably Stephen Miller, but we don't know for sure. Then, in the next iteration, we saw a couple emojis here from Michael Walsh. saying the team in Mar-a-Lago did a great job as well. Great work, all-powerful start. And the name of the group chat was the Huti PC Small Group. Now, how on earth did we learn about this? On Signal, you are able to add people to your group chat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
On Signal, you're able to allow other people to come in. You can invite them. National Security Advisor Michael Waltz invited... the editor-in-chief of the Trump-hating Atlantic magazine, Mr. Goldberg, into the group chat to go have a window into all of these private national security conversations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Now, before I go deeper into that element of this, I do want to make sure that we are clear about what we've just read. What you've read is that both privately and publicly, there is symmetry with the national security attitudes that our foreign policy leaders have. That there is not a private loathing for the America First policy perspective that they ran and what J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
Vance believes publicly, he also believes in privately. What Pete Hegseth has been saying publicly, he also believes behind closed doors. They aren't plotting how to make Elon Musk money. We saw the Trump administration was telling the truth about what they care about. This is exactly how I'd expect them to speak both publicly and privately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
They aren't plotting about how to get five points of approval without caring about the outcome. It is raw. It's authentic. Now, how Jeffrey Goldberg got added is likely because Mike Waltz wanted to add the U.S. trade representative, Jameson Greer, and had the same initials. Now, allow me to editorialize for a second. I know Mike Waltz. We disagree on a lot of foreign policy stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
There's a serious question as to why Mike Waltz has Jeffrey Goldberg as a saved signal contact. It's a very serious question. He's the editor in chief of a Trump hating magazine. You are a national security advisor. You've obviously been dialoguing or talking to him previously. Is Michael Walsh leaking to Jeffrey Goldberg? I certainly hope not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
We know Jeffrey Goldberg has pushed some of the greatest anti-Trump BS in years past. This is not a friendly or a remotely friendly reporter. This is a major screw up. There is no other way to put it. And the screw-up is allowing this guy to be put in and Michael Walsh doing that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
And by the way, when you have presidencies and administrations like this, you're going to have little hiccups and you're going to have speed bumps. The best way is just to take responsibility, confront it head on and say it was a glitch. It shouldn't have happened. It was a near miss in the sense that it could have been way worse what Jeffrey Goldberg got his eyes on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Trump Admin Group Chat Leak: My Reaction
It could have been way worse what he got right into and was not supposed to be right into. Now, some people are saying, oh, this was intentional that they let Jeffrey Goldberg in. None of that is true. Let's be honest. That is a bunch of BS. This is there are people in and out inside and outside the White House calling for heads to roll over this. This was not some sort of intentional.

Yeah, we have to kind of save face with our base, but the Europeans are actually awesome. But let's pretend that we're tough on Europe. Could you imagine? That would be an actual scandal.

In reality, we just happen to see that behind closed doors, they're doing everything they said they were going to do.

So I have one more thought that I want to go into a thought exercise regarding this situation. I was not overly surprised by the elements of this story because we have a hyper online administration.

We do a lot of our communication on Signal, on Telegram, on WhatsApp, and on group messages. The team is moving very, very fast. Now, in the future, these situations should be happening in skips.

Let's go to a secure conference line. However... Understand that a lot of government and a lot of corporate America and a lot of high stakes decision making is occurring in secured group chats.

This wasn't the operation to kill bin Laden. It wasn't an invasion of Iran, which hopefully will never happen. It was airstrikes on a militant group. It's embarrassing.

And it's against federal law and federal guidelines that President Trump issued. Walk us deeper into the numbers. What is the average SAT score that a black student gets to go into NYU? And what does the equivalent average Asian or white student need to get to get into NYU?
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
So a lot of schools are doing this. Are they just gambling that the courts won't crack down on them, that they're just going to be blatantly breaking the law? Is that basically their current calculation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
It is a very rare insight. Can you explain to the uninitiated in our audience the standard deviation difference between getting a 1485 on the SAT and a 1289? Some people might say, well, that's only 200 point difference. But talk about how big of a standard deviation that is in test scoring, especially with moving averages and admission. Is that remarkable, that kind of a difference?
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
If you are a white or an Asian person listening to this, you are actively being discriminated against when you try to go to college, when you try to get into certain schools. If you are a grandparent of a kid that wants to get into these schools, you need to listen and listen carefully and text this episode to all of your friends.
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
I can grasp that. Talk about what this actually then means for the campus culture. Not that this is what I think is the best argument, but what does this then mean for a classroom where you have someone that should not be in the class? Does this bring down the quality of instruction because teachers then have to instruct the lowest common denominator?
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
So let me ask you in closing here, you're a data guy. Do we have the data of what all these results with all these results in do less qualified doctors make more mistakes? What does this then mean for society at large?
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
Kramu, excellent analysis. Thank you for taking the time. I want to put that chart up one more time here before we say goodbye. This is what's happening to our elite institutions. Look at that. That at NYU, this is New York University blatantly violating federal law. Average test score for a black student that comes in, average test score for an Asian student.
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
That is active discrimination against white and Asians. You want to see DEI in practice, affirmative action in practice? It's right there. Thank you so much, Kramer. We'll talk to you soon. Thank you. By the way, the 14th Amendment allegedly says all this is illegal. Why should the federal government fund discrimination based on race?

If you want to be happy and if you are a woman, it's pretty simple. Get married and have kids. That's not just my opinion. That's not just the truths of the scriptures. Look at this latest data.
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
The latest data shows very simple that women's happiness by marital status and children ages 18 to 55. If you are married with no kids, you rate yourself as pretty happy or very happy nearly 84% of the time. If you are married with kids, you make yourself as very happy 39 percent of the time or pretty happy 47 percent of the time and not too happy 12 percent of the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
But if you are unmarried without kids, which, of course, is the base of the Democrat Party, the base of the Democrat Party is unmarried, no kids. you are not too happy one out of four times. One out of four times. And you're only very happy 21.5% of the time. Now, we know this to be true because women largely are designed to have children. They want to have children.
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
They have a biological urge and a need to have children. And suppressing that need turns you into A deeply unhappy person. Here's our family right here. You can put 122 up on screen. The happiest you will be is when you start to have kids. And the modern left tells you to ignore that, to wage war on your own biology. This is the new Snow White.

When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
I mean, but then what is the recourse? He's just going to keep doing this and ignore people. And so impeachment is not going to happen. And that's largely a waste of time. We just don't have the votes to do that. So then how do we rein in this judicial despotism?
The Charlie Kirk Show
When Should Trump Say "No More" To the Courts?
This is a huge issue, and I want to get even further deeper into this. Is there a moment where President Trump and his administration should say, we're just not going to listen to you, man. We're not going to do this. And it is time for the Supreme Court to intervene.

I hope everybody in the audience understands this, that two partner countries of ours, Brazil and Israel, are living under similar judicial despotism, but it is far, far worse than If you have Brazil and Israel, they're basically controlled by an unelected Supreme Court that calls the shots, that can impeach presidents, that can overturn laws.

One would think, final point here, just to reiterate something you said previously, John Roberts and the U.S. Supreme Court could put an end to this. Is that right? They could send a statement, and I believe, I have no inside information to believe this, okay, but I believe based on public remarks that Clarence Thomas is chomping at the bit.

I think he believes, based on previous opinions, that this nationwide injunction fury needs to be put to a stop, and I believe Alito agrees. Now, whether or not Amy Coney Barrett, you know, Keg City Cav and Gorsuch, we'll see what happens. Final thoughts, Mike Davis.

I love it. Cain, how do you think Doge is resonating with the grassroots? How is it working with everyday people? Walk us through it. This is the most exciting, momentous reclamation of our government that I have seen in my 13-year career and that we've seen for over 100 years. Cain.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
And Cain, the left is resisting at maximum pressure. It doesn't seem to be working. But this is coming forward to a referendum in so many ways that it's going to be the shadow government, which is only a couple million people, against the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
Well, and Democrats are at an all-time low of just 32% approval. Kane, we dug the Republican Party out from our dark night of the soul post-January 6th, and we have become the popular party, and they have become a minoritarian, nasty, elitist oligarchy. Kane, it's a remarkable reversible. I mean, it's just, it's almost, it makes you speechless. And I'm a talk show host.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
And it shows that there was a pent up desire, an unspoken, unfold desire to reclaim the country. And they were looking for a vessel to hang on to. And that vessel very well happened to be Donald Trump and the MAGA movement. And I think it was this great convergence. Where on one side you had the MAGA movement that was on fire.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
On the other side, you had this silent majority of Americans that were sick of the inflation, the open borders, the woke stuff. And they weren't necessarily Trump's biggest fan. But they said, oh, finally, a movement that I can attach myself to. And boom, it's set on like fire. And the Democrats underestimated at every turn. Cain, final thoughts.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I mean, that's just a perfect segment for why she got canceled. All of a sudden, she's talking in jive now, talking about being on the streets now that she's gotten canceled on her network show. Like, okay, got it. Where's that been the last five years? Yeah, we out on these streets. Okay, yeah, great. Now all of a sudden she's like a person that got canceled because everyone's a racist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
Yeah, she's going to have to file unemployment. I don't think that those unemployment claims are going to cover your salary. In the wake of Joy Reid being canceled, Chris Hayes or Rachel Maddow, I get them confused. I'm telling you, they could switch and no one would notice. Has this to say, PlayCut78.

Well, then why don't you give up your show, Rachel? Come on, be a partner in reparations and distribution and equity. Why don't you say, I'm giving up my nearly, what does she make, $20 million to $30 million a year? Why doesn't Rachel Maddow give her salary to Joy Reid Because that's equity. White lesbian Rachel Maddow gets to keep on having a show, but Joy Reid does not. That's not fair.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Rachel Maddow calling MSNBC racist for canning the most vile racist to ever have a primetime TV show is really rich. Let's just kind of go through some of the greatest hits of Joy Reid.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
I think that is exactly right. And so supposedly our intel agencies are very, very concerned with leaks, information security, and so on. But in reality, of course, they love leaks. And so yesterday, CNN had a very long article claiming that if Trump cuts the budget of the CIA, it will expose the nation's secrets because the CIA employees will go rogue and sell our secrets to foreign powers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
In other words, our intel community, our hostage takers, give us money we want or else. These are not patriots, Ana Paulina.

So people want to know about the Epstein client list. Do you think we're going to get the goods and information of who visited Epstein's Island and who was on the plane?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
I hope everyone understands there is a rogue government right now that's operating, that there is a shadow government that has defined the will of the people, and they are operating in direct defiance. It is a shadow government. We're going to talk about this throughout the hour, but there is a rogue, out-of-control federal bureaucracy that thinks that they get in trouble from the media.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
We have to start perp-walking and arresting them. And I have every faith and confidence in Kash Patel and Pam Bondi. We need federal workers arrested if they're destroying evidence. We need federal workers arrested if they're leaking information. Ana Paulina.

Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
Without a doubt. And so we need to keep the pressure on when we find these instances, when we see them. These federal workers need to go to jail for the rest of their life if they if it is true. And these federal workers are destroying evidence regarding pending investigations and things that we, the American people, have a right to see. Who do they actually think they work for?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
They think they're in charge. They're in the technocratic class in the permanent oligarchy of the federal bureaucracy. Final thoughts, Congresswoman Ana Polina Luna.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
Thank you. Keep up the great fight, Anna, and we have your back. Thank you. There is an out-of-control rogue federal bureaucracy that is defying the will of the people. It's defying you, the voters. It is an existential threat to to the United States constitutional order. We must bring them to a heel. And that means we need thousands of federal workers in handcuffs if that's what they are doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
Dan Bongino and Kash Patel are going to spend time rooting out what's happening within our government. If there are thousands of people that are leaking information, we need a few examples, big ones. And by the way, this looks as if this is a widespread cancer within our government. Hey, Charlie Kirk here.

This is a young lady who could best be described as a brat. She's a spoiled brat who complains that she was intimidated by Elon Musk for asking the question, what did you do and what did you get done this week? Five things that you got done. She has no time to answer the email, but plenty of time to go on CNN. These people feel entitled to your taxpayer money.

You're about to go pay taxes on April 15th. Many of you might have to sell stock. Some of you guys are going to have to do tax deferrals to get all squared up with the Internal Revenue Service. And when you write that check to the IRS, which might mean less family vacations, might mean you can't go out to eat as much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
When you write that check and you work your tail off, you are sending that money to people like her. This entitled federal worker who goes on television saying that she is so intimidated that someone would ask her what she does. This is a perfect example of what college campuses create, the type of soft, lazy mentality that has infected our institutions and the nerve that this young woman has.

All right, Hermione, calm down. That is a perfect example of a coddled, pampered, and indulged federal worker. Do your job, or better yet, you're fired. Why do you exist? What do you do? You're angry? I'm sorry. You don't get to call the shots here. We don't have the divine right of spoiled federal workers. I must have missed that in the U.S. Constitution. The sovereign is in the people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
We are in charge. And we give our sovereignty through elections... to a president. The vesting cause says that all the power will be vested in a president. And now you have PTSD because you got an email? These people would not last 45 seconds. in a private sector job or a service job. They might last that sales force because the sales force and these big companies acted the government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
But do you know where that attitude wouldn't be tolerated? With the muscular class. And that is why there has been an uprising of the muscular class against people like Hermione Granger here. The people that deliver your meals, the people that drive your trucks, the people that fix the plumbing in your home, the people that work as carpenters, that shower before work and after work.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Intel Agencies vs. America
And she's so smug. You know, if you go ask a carpenter, what'd you do this week? He's like, I fixed this and I did that and I did this and I did that. And she is a perfect example of the millions of people that, as I said yesterday, and it went viral, have become parasites on the American taxpayer.

When you guys work your tail off to write those checks to the IRS, money that they are not entitled to most of the time, you go send that money to these people that then have time to go on CNN and say, well, I was outraged.

Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature.

But last week, it was hanging in suspense. It's who is going to be the third most powerful person at the Department of Defense. The nominee is a great American patriot. His name is Elbridge Colby.

Yeah, I didn't win any friends there with Senator Cotton's office, but it was necessary. And I think I was polite because it was true. And just to be perfectly candid, the first objection I got is, oh, no, no, Senator Cotton is not delaying it. And then, of course, it came out that he was delaying it. What exactly does the job that Elbridge Colby will hopefully assume do?

How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
And can you just take some time here, educated the audience? They think, OK, just Pete Hegseth. He runs the whole thing. This is a massive organization where the power goes into 40 or 50 other buckets that are essential. What would Elbridge Colby be tasked with doing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
And so more broadly, what do you make of the momentum behind the foreign policy view of this administration? It is uniquely different than even Trump won and totally different than Republican Inc.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
So I love the America's first perspective and that kind of hemispheric idea that we need to consolidate the hemisphere and and make sure that our adversaries do not have that kind of dominance within. What do you have to say, Daniel, to some of the audience's, let's say, concerns that President Trump is talking like an imperialist? I don't believe he is. I think it's nonsense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
But it's a question that I've received two or three times now throughout my travels. How would you respond to that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Neocons are known for laying traps or snares or even ambush campaigns on otherwise chugging along administrations. You think everything's going fine and then there is a neocon noose waiting for you. What should we be looking for from permanent Washington that could potentially derail this administration, get us into another permanent war? What are the hot spots that we should be looking at?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Daniel, thank you so much for your time. How does our audience stay in touch with you and follow you?

Okay, here's the very serious question. Should Ilhan Omar be deported? It's a very serious question. Let's go to cut seven. Elon Omar says, you are stupid. for supporting Trump. That Americans supporting Trump for winning these people are just idiots. Insulting the body politic, not smart. Play cut seven. These people are just idiots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Now, we should seriously look into her immigration status. I think it would make great headlines if Trump deported a member of Congress. I think it'd be great. She is one of the most ungrateful members of Congress, let alone in the country. And might say, well, Charlie, what grounds could you deport her? There is a lot to say that her marriage is anything but legitimate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
She married her husband, but only in a Somali faith wedding, her first real husband. And there's a lot of suspicion about whether or not she married her brother. There's a lot of allegedly around here. Then she married a second guy and lying on immigration application. Back to Mogadishu.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
And since America is such a terrible country full of stupid people, why don't you go make Mogadishu great again, Elon? I believe in you. Go to Mogadishu, run for mayor, and bring forth the values of Elon Omar to Somalia. So the second guy she married, who Somali sources say were her brother, and it's not just trace, it's not trace because Somalia has no documentation. Great country over there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Maybe one thing, Ilhan Omar came to this country and she was full of gratitude and loved America. She calls Americans stupid. She hates the country. She hates Israel. She hates Jews. Sounds like a perfect person to get a deportation flight. Now, how would that work if a member of Congress was deported? That would be quite a novel test case. She's not alone in her outrage or her rancor.

How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
This is her fellow radical, Ms. Crockett, play cut to.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Did you understand it? She just uses long words to sound smart when it doesn't really fit. No, it's not that we have a disinformation ecosystem. It's we have better ideas and we're willing to finally fight for them. We're willing to finally say, no, we're not going to allow you to destroy our country.

Well, and let's say that if your cause is wearing the Ukrainian pin, which I find to be repulsive and ridiculous, let's say that is you and you're a lawmaker on Capitol Hill. Ironically, if they would have accepted the early peace deal, it would have been far better for the cause of Ukraine's independence, sovereignty, geography that it controls, and lives lost.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Speak about, David, how early on there was a peace deal on the table. Istanbul, Turkey. I know you mentioned this. Tony Blinken, Boris Johnson. That if you're one of those virtue signalers that wears the Ukrainian flag pin, even for what they want, that would have been a better deal for everybody involved.

By what moral premise should we have when it comes to AI?

How Our Elites Destroyed Ukraine + Winning the AI Race ft. David Sacks
Yeah, it has some unbelievable upsides. I mean, I use AI all the time and mostly to be able to analyze data in a very quick synthesized way. It saves me incredible amounts of time, spreadsheets, emails, long form data.

Matthew Perna, Jord Meacham, Chris Stanton, Mark August. Can we put this up on screen? These are just some. I think there's a fifth somebody mentioned, but I want to verify that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
We know that these are some of the January 6th defenders who've taken their lives after they lost everything over the protest. They're up on screen right now. The Department of Justice, FBI and media in the entire January 6th committee has blood on its hands. John, your reaction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Really quick recount for our audience. You were in solitary confinement in federal prison. That's right. And now you have a full pardon from the president of the United States. Put that in the words the best you possibly can, John.

Yes. And Julie, you deserve a lot of credit. You were the president was making his whole final decisions and you were very persuasive for him. Let's just put it that way. So, Julie, let's recap for the audience. What exactly was signed? What are the details of this pardon? Educate our audience on that, please.

Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Cain, let's go back in time. You and I really grew close during the kind of dark night of the soul before what we see here on screen, President Trump dancing at the ball. He wasn't dancing a year and a half ago, Cain, when you and I were chatting. Talk about how dark things looked.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
It's very sweet, Cain. You know, on screen we had some B-roll of Elon Musk. Cain, you and I both agreed that with the purchase of Twitter, that was almost the cause set in motion that got us here. It was the beginning where all these other tech companies started to reconsider. It was Elon Musk was the tipping point. I cannot emphasize enough the role that Elon Musk played in all this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
By the way, that also should get in the Smithsonian of President Trump with the sword. How should we think about Elon Musk's role in saving Western civilization?

And so this is so profound, and I hope everyone here understands what's going on, is that the president could have done the watered-down version, right? He could have kind of gone halfway. Now, the media is attacking. They say, oh, well, President Trump even commuted or pardoned people that were violent. This is the important thing, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
The question is, do you believe if the tree is rotten, is the fruit also rotten? Can a rotten tree produce good fruit? No. Talk about the due process violations. That's really what we're getting at here, is that these defendants did not have basic constitutional guarantees. They were guilty until proven innocent, pretrial detention, solitary confinement, did not get access to adequate attorneys.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
They did not get the ability to examine evidence. Julie, it's not about that President Trump made a comment. on the actions of what they did that day. He was pardoning and commuting the process. Explain, please.

There were people not on his team. His team has been excellent. But in his orbit that we're saying, do not do the widespread pardons. Is that fair, Julie?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
It was a phenomenal act of courage, a breathtaking act of courage. And the other element of J6 news is that in the morning, every member of the J6 committee and their staff received a preemptive pardon from the scum of the earth, Joe Biden. This one even took me by surprise. What is going on here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
January is here. Can you believe it? How are you doing with your new year's resolutions? Mine was pretty easy to focus on my wellbeing. And we all know the foundation of wellbeing is a good night's sleep. So if I could do just one thing to improve my sleep and overall wellbeing, it is taking the number one mineral for that, which helps me personally on so many levels. I can't even describe it.

Julie, last question here before we bring on a released hostage, John Strand, who had the whole government thrown against him. Have we ever seen anything like the January 6th show trials and let's just say blitzkrieg in American history? Has there ever been an equivalent to this?
The Charlie Kirk Show

We are just getting amazing testimonies. I mean, one in particular, let me just read this to you from my pastor, Pastor Rob McCoy. A very disturbing one was Mark Ibrahim. So Mark Ibrahim was a J6er who was an active DEA agent who never stepped foot in the Capitol.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
but publicly testified that he knew that they were undercover FBI agents there because his brother was an FBI agent who was there and he trained with others. He was an active DEA agent, therefore legally allowed to possess a weapon in Washington, D.C., allowed to possess a firearm. Despite that, he was arrested for carrying a weapon with the intent to support an overthrow of the U.S.

Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
government and was facing 16 years in prison and lost his job. Well, Mark Ibrahim is now completely pardoned, and he has his life back. How amazing is that? It's a total reversal of fortune. 16 years on completely BS, made-up stuff. Totally made-up. The other one that we're going to have on the program later this week is Siaka Masakwai.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Siaka Masakwai was hunted by the federal government for years. An actor, a supporter of President Trump, and was found... eventually at an airport with his pregnant wife and was shook down as if he is El Chapo or some sort of child sex trafficker or drug smuggler. He was actually facing trial last week. His trial started last week. Charges dropped. Game over. Thanks for playing.

Even worse, Big Pharma wants to strip American employers of the freedom to choose health benefits that work best for them. Their proposals could hand Big Pharma a $32 billion money grab at the expense of American employers and families. Conservatives for lower health care costs warns that big pharma isn't on our side.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
They fought against solutions to lower drug prices during Trump's first term, opposed Bobby Kennedy's nomination to HHS to make America healthy again. And now they want even more government control over the private health care market, interfering with President Trump's promise to cut prescription drug costs. Big Pharma is no friend of the American people.

Very special thank you to producer Andrew for filling in on short notice yesterday. I was in very bad shape yesterday. I got very sick over the weekend. I haven't been that sick in nearly five years, actually. It was the sickest I was in nearly five years. I could not move. It takes a lot to take me out of the chair for a sick day. There was something nasty going around.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So Lucas, we are here in Gainesville, Georgia at the Faith Forward TPUSA Faith event conference training. Tell us all about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
1,800 pastors and faith leaders. That's remarkable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Because they have theological differences.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Another way to put it, which is, look, you've got to be a Trinitarian, right? We're not going to do the whole dualistic thing. Yep. But, you know, eschatology, that's an open-handed issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Yeah, and so I want to emphasize this point. What TPSA Faith is doing is so important. We've been at this for a couple years. We are rallying, training pastors and equipping them in the grassroots to in a way that we have not seen for quite a while, and quite honestly, in our lifetime. And I want to just, what does success look like for a pastor that comes through one of our trainings?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
I want to go back to what we were talking about earlier. One of our Christian brothers, J.D. Vance. Yes. Phenomenal guy and a Midwesterner. So you and I both have a next date over from me. Yeah. So if you actually put Charlie Lucas and J.D. together, you got the trio of the Midwest. I like it. I like it. You got Illinois, you got Indiana, and Ohio. J.D.

I did every preparation measure imaginable. That thing roared through the house. I was even traveling for five days and I thought I avoided it. And we think it was the norovirus. Let's just say not fun, but recovered rather quickly, all things being equal. We had an amazing event last evening in Wisconsin. I was able to muster up enough to do that event.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Vance gave an amazing speech this morning that's going very viral that I want to play a piece of tape. And also, I just want to say, everybody, the President Trump-Vladimir Putin phone call is being translated as we speak. We're going to have a breaking news analysis in just a couple moments live here on the program. But first, let's play Cut 113.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
I want to play one more piece of tape here and then just ask a more broad theological question. Let's play cut 115.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
So J.D. Vance mentioned previously in the speech as well, borders. How should Christians and pastors think about immigration and borders?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
That event was brought to you by Big Pharma because I used every drug under the sun to be able to. give the speech there last night in beautiful Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. And we were there supporting Mr. Brad Schimel, hopefully to become on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, the most important race of 2025. is happening in Wisconsin. It all starts today. Early voting starts today in Wisconsin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
So and the the the proponents for open borders primarily are our Catholic friends and not even the rank and file, but some of the major charities. Yes. But we have to be very fair that in our own evangelical circles, there's more and more relaxed posture towards. Yeah, we get we have to be critical of our 100 percent. Can you comment on that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
I completely and totally agree. And if it's not for the church to stand up on these moral issues, then we get into societal confusion. And I believe that's one of the things we're experiencing right now. If you do not live by the Christian ethic, you will live by the secular ethic. And the secular ethic is inherently pagan. You're actually composing a book around these elements, right?

You will not be calling a faceless call center. YREFI does not care what your credit score is. Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless, and they've even lost hope. YREFI gives you a light at the end of the tunnel. It may not be available in all states, and YREFI offers a three-minute rate check without any credit impact.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
So we did that event intentionally aligning with the push for early voting there. So much to cover here as we are here at the TPUSA Faith Pastor Summit. Also, Jensen Franklin is a partner here doing this at Free Chapel. And lots to cover. We're going to have Lucas Miles on the program. who is our director at TPUSA Faith. We're going to have Jensen Franklin himself on the program.

They are phenomenal supporters of our program, great supporters of Turning Point. You don't have to ignore that mountain of student loan statements on your kitchen table anymore. Just call 888-YREFI34 or log on to YREFI.com. That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Can you imagine being debt-free and not living under this burden anymore? Be unburdened by what has been.
The Charlie Kirk Show

But most importantly, find a friend or a family member that might have private student loan debt and go to YREFI.com. OK, a lot happening right now. We got all the breaking news that we're analyzing. We're going to see what we get on the JFK files. We have the Russia Ukrainian call that just wrapped between President Trump and Vladimir Putin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
We also have developing in real time this Supreme Court rebuke of President Trump, a Supreme Court clerk friend of the program texted us, quote, It's ridiculous for the chief justice to advise Congress about what he believes is or is not a proper ground for impeachment. This is outrageous stuff from the court. They are radically in it. They are in a proper radical position.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
And President Trump should keep on operating as if what a district court judge, when it comes to foreign policy, does not pertain to his actions. This is extremely unusual for SCOTUS to comment on current affairs. But this is the pressure of Washington, D.C. Let me explain to you exactly what is going on here. John Roberts lives in the suburbs of Washington, D.C.,
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
He's getting a lot of country club chatter. John Roberts plays golf. The weather's getting nicer in Washington. He has to have lunch, maybe at Bethesda Country Club. Who knows? He's got to be around the high society folks, and he's getting a lot of chatter. His wife is getting a lot of chatter. He's starting to feel the pressure. The regime is waking up everybody. We had those first 40 days.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
We were able to do whatever we wanted, and boom, executive order this, and almost there was no opposition. That's over. We called that play last week. We said the opposition is alive. The resistance is activated. And John Roberts is getting a lot of phone calls, getting a lot of little whispers from
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
A lot of guys in the country club locker room saying, so when are you going to speak out against this madman chief justice? He's getting a lot of pressure. It's exactly what is going on here. And I think he's completely out of line. President Trump is the chief executive and commander in chief.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
If there is a case that John Roberts wants to weigh in on, well, then that case will come right up to him. That case will come up to him and he will say, I believe this is the right interpretation or the wrong interpretation. But for him to preemptively come out like this, it's totally out of line. And I'm not I'm not just saying this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
We are getting text after text from legal expert, legal expert, Supreme Court clerks and many others. In the 2018 Trump v. Hawaii case. Clarence Thomas wrote, quote, these injunctions did not emerge until a century and a half after the founding, and they appear to be consistent with longstanding limits on equitable relief and the power of Article III courts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
If their popularity continues, this court must address their legality. Appears to be inconsistent with longstanding limits on equitable relief. What we're experiencing is a constitutional crisis created actually by the courts, not by President Trump. What they want is a process where you have to have a month-long approval to deport every single Trend Day Aragua member. That is outrageous.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
We are also going to have Andrew Sedra on the program, all about the rise of Islamism and Muhammadism. Very important topic, as the rise of Muhammadism in the West is one of the greatest existential cultural threats. Forget the whole idea of the Houthis and the terrorists in Iran. That's important. But the cultural... ascension of Muhammadism is directly at odds with a free society.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
It is wrong. And we are eventually going to win up at the U.S. Supreme Court. You are going to win up at the U.S. Supreme Court. But this is their plan, and the plan is very well underway. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
We're going to explore that with Andrew Sedra. It is slow motion cultural suicide. But I want to emphasize two rock stars that President Trump has empowered. There is an ascendant. There is a growing. There is a increasingly popular force and energy in The conservative movement in ideological vanguard, J.D. Vance and Stephen Miller. I want to brag on both of these incredible leaders for a second.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
They're both great friends of mine. I'm honored to call them friends. They are in the trenches fighting for the country every single day. Stephen Miller had, without a doubt, one of the best and most dynamic leaders. and informative, might I add, cable news segments that you'll ever find. Usually cable news is largely, especially CNN, just a waste of time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Love Fox News, but CNN is just a waste of time. Why would anybody watch CNN? Stephen Miller goes on there and puts on a PhD level masterclass on exactly what is happening with the expulsion and the deportation of these Tren de Aragua invaders through a constitutional lens and argues rather brilliantly running circles around Miss Casey Hunt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Why President Trump and this administration is in their rightful authority to do this and why this district court judge is defecating on the Constitution when he dares challenge it. She was so in over her head. It was delicious to watch. Let's just talk. These are two young guns. You've got Stephen Miller and J.D. Vance that are the ideological vanguard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
They are simultaneously fighting for the president and his agenda. I wish I could play the entire 10-minute clip of Stephen Miller. Obviously, we can't on this program. But let's play a little bit of a snippet. It's worth every minute. Play cut 108.

You're not hearing me. By the way, can we just get a side-by-side image up on screen? I hate to overly generalize, but you're going to have to indulge me in my generalizations for a moment. That's what's going on in America. On the right, you have very calm, stable, stoic, measured, wise, alpha male Stephen Miller with his life all together, beautiful family, defending his nation. On the left...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
You have Scrambled, not really a clear thinker. I'm not even saying she's not bright, which obviously she isn't. She can't control that. But she's just a sloppy thinker. She doesn't have the mental capacity or the matrix to be able to even process. And she also does it in such a smug, condescending way. She kind of leans back. Well, are you trying to say...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
She was so out of her element here, and Stephen Miller was just kind of playing with her. My favorite part of the tape, you got to get this, Ryan, is when she was like, well, according to your own ex-post, and Stephen's like, nope, nope. And then he reads it word for word, and some CNN producer then puts up the quote, and turns out Stephen Miller was right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
She got even the quote wrong that he was then rehearsing. That he was then saying. And of course, she had people in her ear, obviously three or four producers piping in trying to give her one liners. It's just a perfect picture of what is going on in the country right now. It really was a 10 out of 10 masterclass. So you got Stephen Miller and then we have the J.D. Vance element.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
The future is very bright, everybody. It's not just President Trump that is shouldering this burden. You have an entire team. You have Hegseth. You got Marco Rubio. You got Elon Musk. You have this phenomenal deep bench. And they don't know which attack vector to focus on because it's a team of all-stars. You look at Trump 2 versus Trump 1. In Trump 1, we did not have this chorus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
We did not have this chorus, this symphony of rock stars and all-stars. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. The numbers don't lie.

Wrong. The same way that J.D. Vance has his not today, Margaret, or what was it? Stop talking, Margaret, or whatever it was, or just stop with your yammering, Margaret. Stephen Miller has wrong. And by the way, she was wrong. She she has a whole platoon of producers. This is all she does. Right. This is all Miss Casey Hunt does. Her job is to do one hour of just reading a teleprompter.

He's a phenomenal husband, a resolute fighter for the country, governing nine different things across. And then he has to get ready for a cable news hit. And she still can't be prepared for it. I got to play one more here. It's Stephen Miller.

Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Just say no and you'll know that I'm right. I mean, that is just a chef's kiss masterclass. And Stephen Miller is absolutely right. A district court judge does not have authority to enjoin a president's ability to do foreign policy matters. By the way, breaking news, Chief Justice Roberts pushes back against calls to impeach judge who rules against President Trump.

A legal mind here that we know very well in the program has told us exclusively, quote, this is completely improper for a chief justice to do. The courts are totally out of control right now, everybody. Understand that the sovereign, the power in America, has been primarily concentrated into two buckets the last 100 years, into the unelected bureaucracy and the unelected courts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Almost all of the power has been broken into those two buckets. The sovereign is actually in the people, and that's why we have presidents. Can President Trump actually can he impeach judges? Of course he can. He'd have a hard time to do it. But constitutionally, it's one of the only checks and balances in our system.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
And now John Roberts is coming out trying to say that it's wrong for Donald Trump to do this. They are creating the constitutional crisis here because they are losing their grip on power. President Trump used the. law of the land to repel and to be able to deport Trende Aragua. Could you imagine if every time we have to deport somebody, they have to have a separate hearing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
They have to have a separate deportation hearing for every... That's the way that they could destroy deportations through bureaucracy. They could end the deportation effort by grinding it down to a halt by using... The federal bureaucracy. Did these judges win seven swing states? Did these judges win a popular vote mandate?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
Chief Justice Roberts wrote, quote, for more than two centuries, it's been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. Chief Justice Roberts, you are totally wrong here. You are totally wrong. Quote, the normal appellate review process exists for that purpose. Oh, the appellate review process will be used.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
And I think your Supreme Court will end up siding with President Trump. But a district court judge has no authority or jurisdiction over foreign policy decisions of a duly elected president of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
With President Trump making massive strides in his first month in office, alone to deliver on campaign promises to make America great again, it's clear his administration is committed to driving down costs and unleashing prosperity across our country. But Big Pharma is standing in the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stephen Miller's Masterclass + Innovation Over Stagnation
They've raised prices on over 575 brand-name drugs in January alone, blocked competition, and spent millions pushing overpriced meds on hardworking Americans. Now they're pressuring Congress to implement mandates that will undermine the one real check against drug companies and ban the very market-based incentives that help employers and families save on prescriptions and health care costs.

Hey everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk show, has Doge just discovered the greatest fiscal scandal in history? Millions of people getting social security payments that they shouldn't.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
And again, you have to wonder how much of this is a soft subsidy of illegal immigration. When an illegal comes in the country, there is a black market that shows them how to steal Social Security numbers. Who are these Social Security numbers? They certainly are not legitimate. Where do they come from? And this only continues the distrust of government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
President Trump is going to spend most his first term cleaning up all this crap from Biden in the prior regime. This is so murky. It opens up a incredibly suspicious black hole. Email here from Lorna. Charlie, two people are using my social security number. I went to report it to the social security office. They said there's nothing they could do about it. I provided names, address, and all this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
Followed up to the government multiple times. They couldn't care less. The government doesn't really care. The government has not cared about you for quite some time. I have so little trust in the government. So should you, by the way. We're trying to rebuild that. That's what Elon and Trump are doing. We want a government that is worthy of our trust. But they have not earned it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
In fact, they've earned our distrust. This is a very suspicious story. I wonder where all that money is going. If you have student loans, you got to listen carefully. Being debt-free and not living under this burden is not just a dream. The first step is contacting YRefi. A lot of you in this audience probably have student loans. There's over $300 billion in the private student loan market.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. They help reorganize it for you. They provide a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. It is Y-R-E-F-Y.com. That's YRefi.com. This is the key. They offer a three-minute rate check without any credit impact. By the way, this is the time to do that. We don't know what's happening at the Department of Education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
We don't know what's happening with all these changes that's happening from the top down. Now is the time to bounce. Many clients are not even able of YREFI to make their minimum monthly payment on their private student loans when they first contact YREFI. So if you have a distressed private student loan, this is the key for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
It's not debt settlement company, and they work with each borrower individually. Tailoring each loan to each borrower's specific situation. They're great guys, total patriots. It's Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Joining us now is Speaker Newt Gingrich. Mr. Speaker, great to see you. Thanks for coming on the show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
Well, thank you. It's hard to keep up with the pace of this administration. I kind of want to start with that, Mr. Speaker. I mean, you're a historian. You've lived through and worked with several presidents. This is remarkable. Have we seen anything like this in American history?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
There are 3.5 million for people aged 140 to 149. There's almost 1.5 million for people ages over 150. There it is right there. Now let's just take a pause. For those of us that have been in the fight for fiscal sanity for well over 13 years, we've known this. We've talked about it. We've clamored. And politicians just kind of sit down and shut up. Who cares? This has all been looked into.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
And what do you attribute that to? Because the first term, by this time in the first term, we had national security advisors resigning. We had the FBI spying. We had Russiagate. We had James Comey. We had Mueller on the horizon. Trump is permanently on offense, and the Democrat opposition looks weak, disorganized, disunified, dispirited. Why? Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
And there's real infrastructure behind it. Mr. Speaker, I now want to talk about how President Trump is reformulating Western alliances. J.D. Vance was in Munich last week and gave an exceptional speech that was then immediately condemned by the Germans for How do you think about this geopolitically? The Europeans seem entitled to unlimited amounts of U.S. taxpayer money without them contributing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
President Trump is doing this in a very thoughtful way. What is your take?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
So the conventional D.C. wisdom is, OK, this is normal. It's just paperwork. They were not sending payments to people that shouldn't be getting them. However, after so many of our eyes were opened during covid. Do we trust the government to say that they've looked into this thoroughly after the government has lied to us repeatedly?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
And they're a husk of their former selves. Let's talk about some of the domestic political issues in Europe. J.D. Vance made it a point saying, not only are you guys embracing regulation and strangulated laws against your business, But also, they are cracking down on freedom of speech.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
I mean, in Germany, there was this extraordinary piece of tape on 60 Minutes this last weekend where they said, you can't insult somebody online. You're not allowed to say, get out of my country. This is considered to be hate speech. Why should we as Americans continually subsidize that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
And it's sad because we actually we deserve better media than what the American people have been receiving right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
And we will happily receive them. And we will cheer on their demise. So, Mr. Speaker, right now we have Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff and Michael Walz in Saudi Arabia. I want to just make a little bit of a side note. First, I do want to make sure we plug Gingrich360. People should check that out. But can you just add a little color here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
Marco Rubio might be the most talented diplomat I've seen in a generation. He seems as if he is just built for diplomacy. He's doing a phenomenal job. Any thoughts on Marco Rubio before we get into... I've known Marco...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
about the open border, lied to us repeatedly about the safe and effective vaccine. The government has not earned our trust. The last decade, the last 20 years, the last 30 years, they lied about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So you look at this chart, 3.6 million numbers for people ages 110 to 119.

We have the Mike Walls, Marco Rubio, and the entire team there, Steve Witkoff. If we can get to a end of this Russian-Ukrainian war via negotiations in Saudi Arabia, what does this mean for American foreign policy and hopefully a reorientation towards the menacing rise of China?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
Now, mind you, this is not about cutting Social Security for current beneficiaries or for those of you that are retirees. This is about sending money to what we call phantom Social Security numbers. Now, some people have suggested this could be millions of people who are fraudulently drawing Social Security benefits on behalf of people who died half a century ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
That is so smart. And about a minute and a half remaining, talk about what this might mean for the breaking up of BRICS. It's a not so subtle way to say, hey, America's convening in Saudi Arabia and Russia. I know you've been doing this whole BRICS thing, but the dollar is going to reign supreme.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
It's probably a bit more complex than that. However... Is it a black hole? Is this a glitch in the financial accounting matrix of the federal government? The Social Security Administration has an inspector general. And they've been aware of the issue. Again, excuse me while I dismiss your awareness. I'm on Team Elon here. I don't want to hear your excuses. Oh, the numbers are here.

You are taking this out of the European context. You are globalizing it. Because understand, the petrodollar is really the fundamental issue that was at play here. Russia has been able to survive because of their currency based on oil and natural gas. Saudi Arabia, obviously. Saudi Arabia wants to be a country of the future. They've got some work to do to get there.

But MBS is working hard on that. So we go straight signal into Saudi Arabia, negotiate a peace there. Forget the Europeans. They're they're they're yammering at us all the time, complaining.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
But I'm going to build out what their excuses are. And we'll see. whether or not this might be the most glaring smoking gun of financial waste. In the history of the U.S. government. The Social Security Administrator has an Inspector General. And they say they've been aware of this. They investigated it in both 2015 and 2023. What they basically said they found was this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
Most of these expired numbers are from before there were electronic databases for tracking deaths. There are a lot of people, and as a result, who simply don't have a death date logged. Now the Social Security Administration... says they have methods in place to avoid paying fraudulent benefits to these old numbers. But they're also too lazy to clean up their data.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
They say it's not worth it because it would cost $5 to $10 million. I'm sorry, $10 million? That's a rounding error. We send hundreds of millions of dollars of missiles to Ukraine and $10 million, they won't clean up a rounding error? You have a $6 trillion budget and you won't spend $10 million to clean up
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
What is obviously a glaring problem with the Social Security Administration seems a little suspicious. The inspector general sounded the alarm in 2023. This is Biden's inspector general. They pointed out there's all kinds of ways that expired social security numbers can be used in fraud. For example, it can help illegal immigrants to blend in. We know this is happening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
We know that there are millions of illegals that steal social security numbers. This we know of how many and who they are. will probably be discovered by Elon via Doge. And that's kind of where the Elon force and the Tom Homan force are going to converge. They take expired Social Security numbers and they use them to work illegally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
People also open fraudulent bank accounts using expired Social Security numbers. Some people could even use them to take fake IDs and perhaps even vote fraudulently. And some people, which is illegal, they don't report the death of a loved one like a mother or a father or grandmother.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Elon Expose the Biggest Fraud in History?
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And so they just keep on getting Social Security checks, cashing them in the name of the deceased, and then taking the money. Now, according to Stephen Miller, who's a very smart and thoughtful person, these are fraud rings operating abroad using a treasure trove of expired Social Security numbers.
The Charlie Kirk Show

If this is even 1% true, this is one of the greatest scandals in the history of the American budget glaring in front of us. And they say it would only spend $10 million to fix? For the record, that's less than one one-thousandth of the budget of USAID. Here is Stephen Miller, a serious thinker and a real operator, claiming this is a foreign ring, using U.S.

There is not a living person over 120 years right now in the United States of America. I think the oldest person ever to live in America is like 122 ever in the history of the country. So all 120 you can classify as dead.

That would fix it immediately. But they're not doing it. Why? Makes you wonder, where is all this money going? Who is benefiting from this? The old Latin phrase, coibono, who is to benefit from this? Why won't you just spend the $10 million to clean it up? Elon Musk believes this is one of the greatest discoveries of fraud ever.

It makes you ponder, is our nation needlessly going into debt to the tune of $35 trillion to not even send money to its citizens? These are very scary questions. This is an untreated cancer that is metastasizing throughout the federal government. There's probably at least $1 trillion of waste in the federal government. One out of $6 at least is wasted in our federal government.

Elon says, quote, all outgoing government payments have a payment categorization code to enable financial audits. He noted that this code, quote, is frequently left blank, implying a systemic failure to track payments properly, which he sees as a critical flaw that hinders accountability, quote.

It is the oldest axiom in D.C. Follow the money. Follow the money. No one has ever thought to follow the money of the Social Security Administration.

Does a relaxed Social Security administration system quietly subsidize illegal immigration? Does the Joe Biden regime, because they want open borders, say just turn the other way. It's okay if they steal. They want the foreigners to become voters. And so one of the ways that they allow them to stay is through the theft of legitimate or once legitimate Social Security numbers.

Here is Caroline Leavitt on the fraud that is being uncovered at the Social Security Administration. It's in every single agency, and no one has thought to even look at it.

We got an email here from one of our listeners saying that their loved one died during COVID and the Social Security checks, even though they reported it, came for another three years.

That feels like the silliest, dumbest excuse I've ever heard. That the government doesn't want to spend money on something. $10 million is the salary of a backup wide receiver on the Arizona Cardinals. The government will spend more on that for donuts at the FBI. That response is incredibly suspicious. And it begs the question, what are they hiding?

The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
The idea that they're going to sever ties. Can you speak, Corey, about how in the first Trump administration, a lot of the difficult legal legwork was done? Remain in Mexico, Title 42, meaning that there was years and years of getting this stuff to the courts. In some ways, the table is really set for a mass deportation force. Do you agree with that?

And Corey, can you speak to this? A couple of concerns that it does us no good to return someone to Venezuela if they're going to come back in six months, that it's necessary to then, of course, have a secure militarized border in addition to the deportation force. Will both of those things be working in tandem?

Yeah, speak even deeper to that. The morale is actually increasing. I mean, I've had the opportunity to just meet a couple of the rank and file in the last couple of weeks.

"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
I went from Palm Beach to Phoenix to Colorado, Phoenix, LA, then back to Palm Beach. Lots going on, obviously, back to Phoenix after we're done with this program here. And I saw our great friend, Dennis Prager. Dennis Prager, of course, from the Salem Radio Network, and more importantly, a mentor and author of the Rational Bible and

"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
Happiness is a serious problem and think a second time and still the best hope. One of the most prolific minds and defenders of the good and of Western civilization. I cannot go into any detail exactly what medically Dennis is dealing with, but it's very serious. It's very serious. He is making progress. And Dennis was, we were able to communicate with Dennis when I was there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
And he was able to say, something that was so unbelievably powerful. And it takes a while for Dennis to communicate for multiple reasons, but piecing it together. And I heard Dennis say this for years past, but he updated it. So for the last couple of years, the last five years to be specific, whenever Dennis was asked the question, how are you doing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
The least you guys can do is come and enjoy and celebrate. We got Tucker Carlson.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
Dennis would answer the question and say, I'm doing better than my country. That is how Dennis Prager would answer that question. I am doing better than my country. Dennis says he now answers the question. How are you doing, Dennis? My country is doing better than me. Now, there are two elements to the answer to that question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
He says he's not doing great, but he's getting better and he's fighting hard. But that his country is in a much, much better spot. That his country is in a much better position. He sees what President Trump is doing. And by the way, this is the type of guy that President Trump... Dennis was so touched by this. President Trump called Dennis... to encourage him, to tell him to keep fighting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
And Dennis said, that says more about President Trump than about me, Dennis. It's very deep. Dennis still has the same sort of joy, happiness, laughter. despite all of the associated types of issues. And God protected his mind. His mind is still razor sharp. And he said he's a changed man. That's what he said. He said he has more gratitude, and he always had happiness and gratitude for life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
And let that be a message to all of you in the audience. If you think you're having a bad day, you need to count your blessings. That's all I can say. I believe the hand of God is on Dennis. Doctor after doctor, we're saying things. I don't want to go into details, but he has defied the odds and continues to do that. And so your continued prayers, we still need him. And I brought Dennis a gift.

came to Dennis with his book of numbers. In fact, you might remember Dennis was on our program not too long ago promoting his new rational Bible book, the book of numbers. And he laughed. I said, Dennis, I brought you this book for a reason because it's not your last one. We still need Leviticus. Leviticus is not yet finished and has not yet been sent to the editor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
And he smiled and I said, now you have a reason to get out of here and to keep on fighting. But Dennis gave me permission to share all of this and saying that it is serious. He's doing better and he cannot thank you enough for his prayers, for the prayers, for the support. And I asked him a deep question. I said, are you angry at God? He said, no, not at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
I said, do you still believe there's a God? And he says, more than ever. Very, very deep. Very deep. You see, some people get in situations like that and they say, there's no way there's a God. Other people say, of course there is. Dennis Prager is an American hero, and it was great to see him. Very difficult to see him in this condition, I'll be perfectly honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
He has wonderful people around him. And he is a living testament to Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning. In fact, we communicated about that when I was there.

They've been screaming years about an insurrection because of a couple senior citizens with pocket constitutions want to go pray in the Capitol Rotunda. Meanwhile, they're openly planning a revolt against federal law, saying we have to sever ourselves away from the federal government. Two can play this game. Social Security, cut. Medicare, cut.

"The Left Wants America Ruined By Foreign Criminals."
You all of a sudden don't want money flowing into L.A., San Francisco? Within a couple of days, San Francisco, LA, Seattle, and Portland would collapse. Think about how sick these ideas are. Pardon the criminal immigrants for their crimes just so that they can say that these criminals stay in America. These are criminals. He's talking about wiping the record clean of driving under the influence.

However, our ground game, despite being just a couple of our groups, Elon Musk's group, our group, and of course the Trump campaign and a few others, was able to out-organize the Obama bros at their own game. And we did it through a mix of digital media, chasing ballots, early voting, voter registration, and the proof is in a couple different things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And I'll share this, and then I'll go to the youth vote totals. And then I'll segue to kind of current time here, and we can talk more about this in question and answer, which is this, which is that there was one state more than anything else where we went all in, which is I live in the state of Arizona. I love Arizona. My goal is to make Arizona the Florida of the West, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
That's what we're going to do. We're going to make Arizona the Florida of the West. It's a beautiful state, and it's been abused by bad politics for too long. And from the McCain mafia...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
to the nonsense of the 2020 election and you guys know that i've spent time in arizona it's one of the gems of this country it's just the untapped potential of arizona is significant so we went all in i mean we went nuts we hired a thousand people just in arizona we did the deluxe package more so for two reasons number one i said we need to win this under all costs and circumstances because basically the trump campaign was like you got arizona right i was like yeah sure you know
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Give us a whole state, basically, right? The second of which is I wanted to prove that our theory of the case can be applied to future elections. That we had a data set where we could say this is what happens when we're able to get properly funded, so on and so forth. So we worked very, very hard and registered thousands of voters, but here are the results.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
In 2020, Donald Trump lost by 10,000 votes in the state of Arizona. Now, lost is a, you know... Let's just say fell short, right? There's a bunch of nonsense there, but it is what it is, right? In this last election, he won by 197,000 votes. Now, this is what's amazing. Out of all the swing states, there are seven swing states, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
It was the best performing swing state of the seven swing states. It was the best performance that Donald Trump ever posted in the state of Arizona. And what if I told you he won by five and a half points despite being outspent four to one? That's a very, very good test case that what we did in Arizona worked. Now, you might ask about Cary Lake. Is that what you're going to ask about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
The total population of Arizona. I could tell you there's about. 3 million voters, so the population is about 6.5 million, 7 million, because you have to say about 50% voter turnout, might be a little less than that. My numbers might be a little off, but yeah, that's about right. So yeah, about 3.2 million voted, so population would probably be closer to 6 million.

So anyway, I could go state by state, but allow me to then just put a touch point on the miraculous nature of this election and what I believe was where Turning Point made a decisive influence. Now, let me tell you what I hate. I hate when people take credit for elections. Two entities deserve credit. Almighty God and Donald Trump. They deserve credit for this election, okay? That's it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
However, allow me to indulge you on some data that I think is very compelling of what would happen if Turning Point did not exist with the youth vote. So I had my entire team run it. If I had the numbers, if anyone saw our presentation this last weekend at the gala, I can send it to you. It's incredible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
If the youth just would have voted the way they did with Joe Biden in 2020, Kamala Harris wins. It's that simple. Let me say that again. All Kamala had to do was get younger voters involved. to vote for the guy that was like 76 and couldn't complete sentences back in 2020. But something changed. In fact, younger voters moved 13 points to the right. And here's the kicker.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
I say this, people won't believe it. Baby boomers moved three points to the left. I know. See, no one believes it. It's true. And by the way, it's multiple exit polls. By the way, I totally believe it, by the way. Why? Baby boomers are high trust of institutions. They watch a lot of TV. No offense. There's a lot of TV consumption and not exactly big into the Joe Rogan thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
I think that's like the lowest of Rogan's listenership, right? However, there's a deeper point there, though, that, again, I don't mean every baby boomer in this audience. This is not what I'm saying. But generally, baby boomers, if you ask them, do you think that our institutions are rotten to the core and deserve to be burned down, a baby boomer will say no. Like eight times out of ten.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
You might be different. But instead they look at institutions as something to be honored and protected. Whereas Gen X, millennial and Gen Z says, these things have never worked for us. It is a scam. Burn it down. Send in the revolutionary. And that was the energy that Donald Trump campaigned on. You might disagree with my analysis, but we can debate that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
The point being is that the biggest vote move of any voters this cycle were younger voters. In fact, we won the youth vote in the state of Michigan. Let me say it again. We won the youth vote in the state of Michigan. We tied it in Wisconsin. And we lost it by one point in Pennsylvania. And I could also say there would not be Senator Dave McCormick again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
with 53 Senate seats if it was not for younger voters and how they move this cycle. So we could talk more about the election during Q&A. There's so much we can go through. But here's the good news. We are building a political party that is durable to win for the next 50 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Our party is now aligning less around race politics and more around class and male-female distinctions, which I think is a very positive thing. In fact, as people get married and have kids, they become radically more conservative. The most conservative voting blocs are the ones that are getting older. In fact, Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z are all becoming more and more conservative.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
They are showing no signs of going back. In fact, the baby boomers moving three points to the left was the first time we've seen. Since Barack Obama, older populations moved back a little bit to the Democrat Party. They almost always tend to get more Republican redder, more Republican redder. Now, mind you, when I say three points to the left, that was just against Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
The baby boomers voted overwhelmingly for Republican Senate candidates and overwhelmingly for Republican House candidates. So it's not that they've moved liberal. There was something about Trump that bothered some folks. Okay, so we can talk more about the election in a second. Let's talk about this transition really quick. What President Trump is doing is he's assembling a team of changemakers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
We will never have this opportunity again. From Kash Patel at the FBI, Bobby Kennedy at HHS, Tulsi Gabbard at DNI, from Pam Bondi as Attorney General, this is a team of all-stars that we're presenting to the American people. Now, this should be a no-brainer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Here comes the more uncomfortable portion of our talk tonight, which a lot of you guys can help because a lot of these people come and ask you for money, and some of you give them money. So, therefore, you can really be helpful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
A lot of the people that are going to be coming here for nice receptions and wine dinners in January, February, and March, a very simple question needs to be asked of them, which is why are you giving Pete Hegseth a harder time than Lloyd Austin that was Joe Biden's DOD secretary? Why is it that you are giving Donald Trump's cabinet a much harder time than any of Joe Biden's nominees.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Can you show me one instance, because I know the answer, where any of their nominees had to walk through the halls when a bunch of media was asking them questions and senators were flaky? And the answer is, of course not, because many of our Republican senators do not share the values of their voters. And that is a big, fundamental, structural problem. And so I can go through the list.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
There are a lot of Republican senators that voted to confirm Merrick Garland, Lloyd Austin, and Alejandro Mayorkas. almost all of whom are signaling they might not vote for Donald Trump's cabinet picks. And yet they come from some of the reddest states in the country. States like Idaho, states like South Dakota, states like Mississippi, states like West Virginia. Now, no votes have happened yet.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
There's still a lot of talk and rhetoric. However, we need to build a Republican Party today. that is as conservative as its voters. It should reflect the will of the people, not the will of the ruling class or lobbyists in D.C. that want to overturn the will of the people. And while we're at it, they only have a Senate majority because of President Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
They're only in a majority because President Donald Trump was able to give them 53 seats. So putting that all together, we need to be very serious about launching primary campaigns. I know this might not be what you want to hear. We just won.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
You will not actually – you'll just win elections and lose the country if the Republican Party governs like moderate Democrats and does not fulfill the agenda of President Trump. And let the message be very clear, and Joni Ernst was kind of central casting for this this last week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
If you oppose the president's nominees, you'll receive a primary challenge quickly, and we will remove you from office immediately. In closing, let me say this, and then we'll do some questions. As you can see, I'm a very agreeable figure in the U.S. Senate lunch. Couldn't care less. You know why? Because the game is changing. Because of social media, the people are waking up. It's very simple.

It's not too much to ask that the people should be back in charge of their government. What Doge is doing is a constitutional reset, the likes of which we could have never dreamed of. They are getting back down to the foundational and structural issues of our time, which is, is that a legitimate function of government? Should that department even exist? Why do we have a Department of Education?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Has that been tested to the Supreme Court? We're getting back to first principles that the founding fathers authored as original intent to send things back to the states, to give more power to parents and families and citizens, to be able to live the lives that you see fit, and to try to shrink the size of the Leviathan in D.C. This is not going to be easy. And this is a time to celebrate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Don't get me wrong. What's going to come next is this $6 trillion beast per year is not going to go down easy just because we won an election. It's going to require citizen vigilance. It's going to require us holding people accountable because we have an opportunity to deliver on permanent border wall security, mass deportations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
We have an opportunity to have the greatest economic growth miracle that we've seen in modern history, 5% growth in people being left out of poverty, the likes of which we've never seen. We have an opportunity to abolish the Department of Education, which we should, by the way. We should abolish the Department of Education. And...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
You put all of this together, I can just say that if we are complacent and we no longer are active communicating or what's happening in D.C., if we just say, oh, we won, things are going to get better, we all know the lesson that comes after that. That is why vigilance is critically important. And the president is not going to rest, I'm telling you, both metaphorically and literally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
He is ready to fulfill this mandate every single day. I could tell you the president tells his team, what did I run on? What did I promise? And that's what I'm going to do from no tax on tips to protecting social security and Medicare from liberating the American economy from its current shackles to drill baby drill.
The Charlie Kirk Show

to no men in female sports, to building the southern border wall, to supporting our allies in Israel.

Is that Drew? Oh my goodness, how are you? And then I want to talk about what is going on as President Trump is building this extraordinary government, because I believe we have a once in many lifetimes opportunity that is happening right now. And then I want to talk about some of the forces that are within the Republican Party that stand in the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
of that once in many lifetimes opportunity, which kind of goes to the much work yet to be done. So what happened this last election? What President Trump pulled off is, without a doubt, the greatest comeback in American political history. And he and he alone deserves credit for this, from his grit, his resolve. When he was... Exiting office in 2021 after a very unjust election.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
The speakers are breathtaking. Do you know how hard the team has worked on this? The least you guys can do is come and enjoy and celebrate. We got Tucker Carlson.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Many of you remember the media said that his entire political movement was dead. It was over. And he was really put in exile just right down the street here. I remember I visited him in early February of 2021. That was the easiest meeting I ever got in Mar-a-Lago history. That was not hard. Kind of just called up like, yeah, you want to see the president? Schedule's clear. Come on. You know why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Because almost every major Republican had abandoned Donald Trump at that time. Because they thought he was toxic. They thought the movement was over. And as soon as they couldn't get anything out of Donald Trump, they ran away. Well, at Turning Point and me especially, we never left the president's side because we understood what the president represented.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And we believe that the 2020 election was so unjust that given any other circumstances, we could build a multi-year movement, right those wrongs, and eventually get him back in the White House. It was ambitious. It feels as if it's so common sense now. But going through these last couple of years, the improbability and you don't have to agree with me, but it is a fact.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
I believe the hand of God is on Donald Trump and has ushered him through this entire process in more ways than one. Let's talk politically. So in order for President Trump to be successful, he needed to do something that was very difficult that most Republicans would never try to do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
So the traditional Karl Rove way of looking at elections, who I don't think anyone should take Karl Rove seriously ever again after this election, he's been professionally wrong about everything for 20 years, is he says all you have to do is win over swing voters. Win over swing voters and you become president.

So we had a different belief at Turning Point Action and we worked in harmony with the great a campaign team that President Trump assembled, Susie Wiles, James Blair, Taylor, they did a phenomenal job. We said, well, let's think about this a little differently.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Instead of trying to win over the same voters that are always in the middle, you know the type, they go back and forth, but there's not that many of them. but they have disproportionate amounts of influence. Why don't we just make the electorate a little more MAGA? Why don't we make it a little bit redder? Now, the media said this was impossible. They said, you can't change the electorate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
It takes too many boots on the ground, too much voter registration. The electorate is set, and don't try to change it. But you look at, actually, voter turnout. I don't know what Florida turnout number is, but just take Georgia. One out of three eligible adults don't vote in the state of Georgia. And those people tend to be men,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
who work with their hands with incomes under the age of 60,000 in rural areas. That screams MAGA. These are people that should be voting, but they feel the system has betrayed them. They've never been registered to vote. This is a first-time voter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
So the big bet that President Trump and his campaign team did, and we from Turning Point Action made, was why don't we reject the premise that every major consultant has made over the last couple of cycles, that Mitt Romney made, and even George W. Bush, and we remake the electorate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Now, mind you, there's only one other candidate that remade the electorate in politics the last 20 years, and that was on the Democrat side. That was Barack Obama. He remade the electorate. He made it younger. He made it more black. He made it more diverse. They deserve credit for that, and they've not been able to duplicate it ever since.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And so the idea was this, and it turns out our theory of the case was correct, which is that men especially were ready for a revolt against wokeism in this country. And we can remake the electorate across all demographic lines and ignore traditional race politics. If you're black, Hispanic, or white, it does not matter as much as the true distinction that should matter, male or female.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And male-female distinctions matter a lot because they're given to us by God. And just observant nature tells us that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
So we had this idea that if we could make the electorate three points more masculine, one point more rural, then this would result in not all of the polling would definitionally be wrong because you're polling an old voter file where the electorate looked as if it's not going to look on election day. So this was not easy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
We hired 1,500 people at Turning Point Action, full-time people on the ground in Arizona, Wisconsin, in Georgia, in Pennsylvania. In fact, you can go back and look at the articles. The media was cheering for our demise. Turning Point Action has no idea what they're doing. Trump campaign has outsourced this to the Turning Point Action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And they were ready for us to take all the blame for what happened. So that was the first ingredient, remaking the electorate. But then came kind of our sleeper strategy. That was our big bet, was the one that we didn't advertise too much, which is hard for us because we like to run our mouths. a fair amount at Turning Point, which was the following, which was,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Spending 12 years on these college campuses and kind of being known as the college campus guy, we saw an opening, an attack vector about 18 months ago where we said we can move the youth vote by 20 points. No one's going to believe us. We're going to do the work. We're going to organize, hire the bodies, do the videos. This could end up being the decisive factor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And for all of you guys, thank you, that have generously supported us at Turning Point, you know this was not an overnight operation. You know that I've been doing this for 300 days a year for the last 12 years. You know that I've been doing this on campuses. Byron remembers I used to tell Rush about this all the time. Like, we can get this done. We can get this done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And I believe the Lord led us to this moment where finally all the stars combined, where we were able to seize on this opportunity. Similarly to the all men moving to the right, young men moved the most to the right of any demographic that we saw. And Stanley asked me, well, Charlie, how do you best explain that? It's not that hard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
You don't need a PhD or you don't need a Wall Street Journal article. Young men wanted to be part of a political movement that did not hate them. Not difficult. Right? That thought it was okay that they existed. That thought it was definitional. Actually, that it's necessary to have men in your society. That you need strong men in order for civilizations to thrive and to survive.

The last couple of years have been very tough on people economically. A lot of good folks have gotten into horrible debt just to survive. Some of you are paying 20% to 30% on your credit card debt and drowning in those monthly bills. If you own your own home, did you know that refinancing that home can get you help right now?

And so, again, President Trump is properly described. He's definitely not the most feminine candidate ever to run in the history.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And it's actually a really interesting thing when you think about it philosophically, because the Democrat Party is toxically feminine. Now, don't get me wrong. We need a balance between the masculine and the feminine. But at its worst, look, the worst of masculine characteristics is like invading Crimea. We got that, okay? The worst of feminine characteristics is...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Is policing speech because feelings matter more than facts? We can agree with that. So when we do not have the proper balance of the masculine and the feminine, you can get toxically in one direction. We should all be honest enough to know that society can go in that way. But we've always lectured our kids of toxic masculinity. We've never talked about what toxic femininity is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Well, the Democrat Party is toxic femininity. constantly apologizing for your circumstances, feelings-based, not reason-based, right? Everybody has their own truth. There is no leader. There is no one standing up to the mob. What is toxic femininity? Daniel Penny that had to almost go to jail for standing up against a crazy person in the subway in New York. That's a perfect example.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And we could go through many other examples like that. So we saw this as an opportunity that was larger than politics. We weren't the only ones, but we were definitely the biggest ones, the ones that went all in. That this was a cultural reckoning that was ready to realign.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
That the country was ready to shed itself of diversity, equity, inclusion, critical race theory, pronoun police, they, thems, being fired from your corporate job because you happen to have a cross or you happen to celebrate Easter. And we believe that there was this pent-up energy of the men of this country, especially young men, that were experiencing the worst of the COVID terror.

The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
You must wear the mask. You can't have graduation. You can't have commencement. You can't have senior prom. You can't see your kids. You must be pent up all the time and stare at a screen. That they are ready to rebel against that, against all the people that stole their 18, 19, and 20 years from them.

And we created a message that Donald Trump was the man, the vessel, that was the rebuke of all the suffering you've been feeling post-COVID. Where your grandsons and your grandkids that feel something is off, things are rigged against me. Well, Donald Trump is the guy that will restore normalcy and restore masculinity back in this country. And we went all in on that.

Not just on the podcast strategy, which was obviously significant. President Trump, on Joe Rogan, on Theo Vaughn, all these great podcasts. But I don't know if this audience necessarily saw some of it, but I guarantee you your grandkids did. What we did on the college campuses, did anyone see our campus debates or any of our videos? Okay, I'd say about half of you know what I'm talking about.

By the way, if you don't, that's okay. You're just consuming a dying media. But it's okay. It's not braggadocious. We got 3 billion views on TikTok, on Instagram, and Twitter. Understand this, that what used to be considered fringe media is now mainstream media. Mainstream media is now fringe media. I mean, we were reaching everything. Don't take my word for it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Van Jones, all the major political people are saying what the Trump campaign and turning point action and Charlie Kirk did on social media was unheard of. And it wasn't that we ran ads. If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's hard to recreate it. I would show up on a college campus, sit at a table, let a bunch of people say whatever they want, film it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And then put it on the internet, right? Rinse, repeat, did it 25 times. And after like the second time, the third time, again, I've been doing this for 12 years. We started drawing crowds of 5,000 people at University of Georgia. 3,000 people. I mean, we can show you the pictures. It's like no joke. And I was like, this is not normal at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And by the way, the Kamala table at University of Georgia had like six people. We had 5,000 people. And it was, by the way, it wasn't just men. It was young women as well. And then it clicked. The young women will follow if the men will lead. And that is a truth regardless of whether or not it's in politics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And all of a sudden, the men are stepping up with masculine energy and the women of the campus that don't have purple hair and that are not lesbians are following them. Because they want to actually eventually do what most women want to do, which is have a family and have a nice life. And that is where the directional energy is going.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And by the way, one of the reasons why wokeism was able to be so successful is that we did not have enough men to stand up to this nonsense and say, stop it. No, we did not have enough Daniel Penny energy in this country to say, actually, I'm going to call you about whatever pronoun I want. You're not going to swing against my daughter. You have to go through me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And that is the energy that is finally coming back to this country that built this nation in the first place. So we did this on these college campuses. Thank you. And it was remarkably successful, reached billions and billions of people. And I'll get into the data to show it. The final part of it was our embrace of early voting. And this deserves a lot of attention. I won't spend a lot of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
But if you guys watch the Charlie Kirk show, which we do every day for a couple hours, you know that we were just nonstop obsessed with trying to change the culture on early voting. In fact, I wore a shirt that said vote early for six months straight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
We believed firmly that it was one of the dumbest ideas possible to try to tell all of our supporters to try to just vote on one day when the bad guys get 30 days. And understand this. When your theory of the case is that you're trying to get a bunch of people that never voted before. Well, then you fundamentally then need as many days as possible to get those people to vote.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
Following a Turning Point event, all attendees will return to their campus and communities more energized than ever. Go to amfest.com, that is A-M-F-E-S-T dot com.

Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
By the way, what we ended up being at Turning Point Action was half of the time a customer service line to answer what they would feel ashamed of questions. And you guys might laugh at them. Where do I go and vote? Where do I put this thing? When I go there, are they going to ask for a utility bill? And you guys might laugh. These are people that never voted for it. They don't know. Right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
And so we actually ended up being a customer service line for hundreds of thousands of first-time voters, and guess what? Easier to do that over a 30-day period than a 12-hour period. And what we end up doing is that the smart Democrats knew they were going to lose like a couple weeks out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Secret of the Turning Point Ground Game
We thought we were going to win, but then it was too good to be true, so I refused to actually believe it, so we then chased more votes and won by more. And that's how we got Senator Dave McCormick because of our crazy paranoia, which was a great win, by the way. And so... Early voting was a huge thing, which goes with this. The Democrats invested a lot in their ground game.

But at some point we must realize the military is slipping at such a dramatic pace that we have lost our fighting edge. And the fighters themselves coming back into the military is what's missing, not more academics. We need less academics in the military and more fighters in the military that know what it's like to send their best friends home in body bags.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
We need less people that spent their lives in air conditioning and attend rubber chicken dinners for a living. By the way, I'm one of those people. I get it. I'm not here trying to run the DOD. I'm not here trying to run the Pentagon. Pete Hegseth has done the tough work. Served the country with courage and distinction and valor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Now, a big debate around Pete Hegseth's nomination is women in combat. Now, we've been very clear on this program that we don't believe that women should be in frontline combat roles. It's not to say that women can't serve in other roles and other capacities, and it doesn't diminish the courage or the valor that many women have showed. But this is why. It's because of standards.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
And Pete Hegseth was saying this in his confirmation, but Pocahontas, who needed a peace pipe or something, by the way, she had to calm down. It's out of control. It was interrupting him too much. Let's put this up on screen. This is the ACFT grading scales.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Now, when we are trying to go up against the Chinese Communist Party, when we are trying to go up potentially against Iran, God forbid, or some other enemy, wouldn't it be necessary that every single person that we are sending the front lines has the same capacity? Women have different thresholds. And that's not okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Women are, if they're going to be in frontline combat roles, should have the same thresholds as men. You should not accommodate whether or not you can carry a fellow service member after they get shot or whether they pass out or they are wounded. The enemy doesn't care if you are a male or female. Mortar shells, bullets, and the enemy come at you just the same. Here is the ACFT grading scales.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
A female has to run a 15-29 mile. That's what it looks like. I think I'm reading that correctly. At the lowest threshold. At the highest threshold. A male has to run a 13-22, just two miles, and 13 minutes and 22 seconds. For push-ups, a male has to do 57 push-ups. A female at the highest has to do 53 push-ups. But here's what's amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
At the lowest rank, I'm not sure if I'm reading this correctly. It's like high points. I guess you want the lowest points possible. The deadlift is one of the most amazing ones. Okay, you want 100 points, but then why are the points correlated? It's a very confusing graph. It doesn't make a lot of sense. So the less push-ups you do, the more points you get? Okay. I don't think you guys are right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
It says right here, 56 push-ups gets you 44 points. But 57 push-ups gets you 17 points. So explain that one to me. Okay. Oh, it's by age at the top. That's nice. But it says points, not age. Oh, I see. The older people have lower standards. But it's labeled as points. Whoever designed this should be fired. Pete Hegsa should fire this person. It's very confusing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Because it says points, and then it goes... Okay, anyway. It doesn't even label age. So I see how it is. Okay, so it's based on age. So, for example, a 20-year-old woman has to only be able to deadlift 210 pounds. But a 20-year-old man has to be able to deadlift 340 pounds. Said differently, a woman does not even need to be able to pick up or carry a fellow man with gear on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
At the very base minimum standard. So they should have to be as strong in order for a woman to serve in the military. If a woman can deadlift 340 pounds, welcome in. If a woman can do the push-up standards and can do the plank standards... which actually the plank standards are equal, or the mile standards.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
So why are we lowering the standards of the finest fighting force ever in the pursuit of diversity? And diversity is not our strength. Equity is not our strength. Inclusion is not our strength. Unity to kill the enemy is our strength. There should be one standard, full stop. This is not controversial. 99% of the country agrees.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
And for this, by the way, women in frontline combat roles, has that made our military better or not as good? What war have we won since we've allowed women in frontline military roles? No, seriously, what war have we won? We got embarrassed in Iraq. We got embarrassed in Afghanistan. We have lost our edge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
And Pete Hegseth embodies the type of masculinity that we need back into the United States military.

Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. This is a very important reminder about your year-end giving.

The Charlie Kirk Show

Just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day.

Pete Hegseth is just crushing it right now. And Pete Hegseth, so this is the way it works, is this is the Senate Armed Services Committee chaired by Senator Roger Wicker, who's wearing a foreign flag for whatever reason. Someone can explain that to me, that the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee has a foreign flag that he's wearing, that being Ukraine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Then he also has a co-chair from Rhode Island. I don't remember this guy's name. It was, what was his name again? Senator... I don't want to misspeak. So basically, they co-chair the committee, Senator Reid. And so Senator Wicker controls the gavel. He begins. So it goes back and forth with equal time for Republicans and Democrats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
When the Republicans ask questions, it's softballs, as it should be. Got to give the guy some time to regather, to take a deep breath, to be able to get his footing. And then the Democrats come all in and forcefully. So but let's kind of frame this up. One of the distinctions of how our government is supposed to be constituted is a civilian-led military.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
All right. Jackie Rosen is making a fool of herself here. Senator from Nevada who should not be a U.S. senator as she exchanges some spicy words with Pete Hegseth, our next secretary of defense. Let's listen in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
The Joint Chiefs of Staff has its own problem. Whether or not the Joint Chiefs even exist or not is a separate issue. But having a frontline fighter to lead the Department of Defense. is an extraordinary development. Most people that have led the Department of Defense from Lloyd Austin to Mark Milley, they have not faced fire themselves. They have not lost friends on the front lines of battle.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Pete Hugseth will bring that warrior ethos back into the Department of Defense. Pete Hegseth understands the threat of DEI, critical race theory, and the American left. He understands that our threat is not just international. It is also domestic. Pete Hegseth will purge the United States military of DEI, of the lowering of standards.

Let's go back to Senator Mark Kelly, who is asking our next Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth questions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
He has been in combat, so this is nothing to him. And Pete is not connected to the military-industrial complex like Mark Milley, like Mad Dog Mattis, like all of these failures at DOD. Pete Hegseth actually fought in the front lines, and it's time that we have a warrior to lead other warriors. Someone that has ascended with distinction and honor. Pete Hegseth served this nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
OK, everybody, Senator Mark Kelly is wrapping up with Pete Hegseth. I want to actually hear from someone who's been in the room to fight for Pete Hegseth. It is Cash Larson, who is running SEALs for Pete Hegseth. Cash, welcome to the program. Cash, tell us what you are seeing up close and personal in the room here and how your friend Pete Hegseth is doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So let's talk about the military standards and how they have been relaxed and how they're different for males and females. And this has been a big issue made in this committee hearing. What is the truth regarding this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
In closing here, Kaj, because I know we've got to get back in, what do you think Pete Hegseth will do for military recruitment and morale?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Mark Milley, if you get a picture of Mark Milley, he has all these medals. What did he ever do to get all those medals? All this regalia. What war did Mark Milley win to get all of that regalia? One of the greatest threats to our own country is how... The cancer, the tumor of wokeism has been enveloping the United States military. It makes us less ready to win wars.

Our military preparedness has been eroded and dulled. The morale of our military is at all-time lows. We have a recruiting crisis right now in the United States military. We were once the finest fighting force on the planet, and now that is being put in jeopardy. Pete Hegseth will bring it back. Bring back warrior culture. Show 54 right there. This is Mark Milley.

Slotkin, Senator Slotkin, very tight Senate race there in Michigan, and Pete Hegseth is continuing. But now I want to invite a fan favorite of the program, Mark Halperin, political reporter. Mark Halperin's Wide World of News, but also two-way TV, which I am going to join at some point. Mark, welcome back to the program.

What on earth did he ever do to get that many medals? What war did he win? What conquest did he author? What battle did he participate in to get that many medals? No, simply by existing. Must take an hour to put all those on. Mr. White Rage. Now contrast that overweight, low testosterone, beta male, failure. of a general with, contrast that with Pete Hegseth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
That is so funny. I need to explain that. I got to tell you. I need to explain that. Not even a Mooseburger. No, it's very interesting. You might be in the running, Mark. I bought a bunch of tourist trap stuff, including seal fur and local delicacies. So you might be in the running for some reindeer sausage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
At the inauguration, if we run into each other, I'll give you some reindeer sausage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
That's right. No, that's a separate topic for another time, one of the most fun I've ever had. Mark, I see that you may or may not be in an airport, which I've actually done many hits from an airport. So either that or it's a very convincing green screen. I've done many hits from airports, so I totally get it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
I was going to say, well, I thought it was, if I'm not wrong, just based on the background and the aesthetic. I've spent many a time in Reagan. So, Mark, I know you've been catching some of the hearing here. What is your analysis? And do you think Pete Hegseth is likely to become the secretary of defense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
So let me ask you, Mark, the kind of whole slate, it seemed as if things were not going great for Pete. But then, of course, there was this threat of primary challenging that we may or may not have been involved in. Do you think that changed the direction of the future of the whole slate being confirmed?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
The man right now who is calm under fire. Oh, we got to listen to this. Go right now. We got to go. Elizabeth Warren, we got to listen to this. Go to Elizabeth Warren.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
So, yeah, this is really kind of the first online administration when you think about it. And it's real time and it's interactive. Can you comment on that, Mark? It's a little bit of kind of next gen political warfare.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
And I take that as a great compliment. Thank you. And you're right. The sleep is not always abundant. Sometimes, you know, you're up at 1 or 2 a.m. because you just have all this incoming. And I do have to say that is one of the great superpowers of being on the West Coast. Right now I'm in Palm Beach.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
But being on the West Coast, you can kind of stay up very late and you can kind of set the news cycle for the next day while everyone else is asleep. So, Mark, I want to shift gears.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Almost like, exactly. I want to shift gears slightly. On this program, we've said that if 2017 was marked by the resistance, it seems as if that 2024 and 2025 is marked by the acquiescence. Breaking news here while we were on air. To be on the dais, which is where President Trump is getting sworn in, is a big deal. It's cabinet officials. It's family.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
You know, it's people that are very close and organizers that have been around. The dais will now include Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk. Elon's not a surprise, but Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg will be on the dais. What is your reaction going from 2017 full-out resistance? We're almost to the day, four years from the day of January 6th.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
You have Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk bending the knee. Help me understand this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
A year ago, it would have been shocking. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Mark, we have to dash, but I just I think it's just going to be incredibly delicious to watch the picture of, you know, the typical people, Jared, Ivanka, Don, Eric Zuckerberg, Bezos. It's not like they're just donating the token one million dollars. They want to be on the dais. That's a big, big deal.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Check out my friends at andrewandtodd.com, andrewandtodd.com. So from what I understand, according to my sources, which I think my sources are pretty good, this is it. There is no other hearings besides this. That's it. From what I can understand and from...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
From all the research that has been gathered and all the sourcing, I do not believe that there is going to be a route to there will be a committee vote and then a floor vote. And that's it. I believe this is the end of questioning. And so Pete Hegseth did wonderful. Yeah, let's go full screen on that if we can. I'd like to narrate along as Pete Hegseth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
He's been through hell and back these last couple of months, lied about, slandered. So that is Pete around friends and family. I know there's Arthur Schwartz. I know him. There is Mike Walls there. Pete taking pictures, kind of like a celebrity, if you will. And Pete just got done with one of the hardest things that you can do. So this is what Pete is doing right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Pete is saying hello and thanking all the veterans that were there in support of him today. By the way, what a sigh of relief Pete can have right now. It is very difficult because the Democrats on that committee were intentionally provoking him. It was an intentional provocation campaign. Intentional. And Pete handled it beautifully.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
It was a masterclass by Pete Hegseth, attacking his marital life, his personal decisions, whether or not he has a drinking problem. And, like, hold on a second. First of all, the military is not exactly the place of sobriety. I don't drink. Not a fan of it. But it's not a moral issue. However, it's all in the past. nobody is, no person is ever above rising above what the demons of their past are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
That is completely and totally unfair. He was measured. He didn't take the bait. He's a true patriot. And there is the Senate hearing room where this all took place. And from according to all sources that I have, It's now going to go to a committee vote, which will probably pass on pure partisan lines. We're watching you, Joni Ernst.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
By the way, did you notice how boring Joni Ernst's questions were? You notice how non-dramatic, how tempered Joni Ernst's questions were? She flew a little bit too close to the sun. She didn't want to get rotted. And now Joni Ernst is Pete Hegseth's biggest fan. And honestly, I got to give credit for the foreign flag wearer, Roger Wicker. I mean, he was just ridiculous wearing the Ukrainian flag.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
He handled the committee really well. I got to give him credit for that. The whole Ukrainian flag thing is just ridiculous. But I got to give him credit. He handled it like a gentleman. He stood up against the left, that ridiculous co-chair that he has in the Democrats, the Cooper or whatever his name is. You can never remember that guy's name. It's so forgettable. Jack Reed. Jack Reed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
It sounds like he's like a federal agent. Jack Reed. Just feels made up. Senator Reed. He just says, yeah, yeah, thanks so much. Thanks for coming. He didn't want to turn this into a longstanding melodrama, longstanding, unnecessarily unnecessary issue. So he just said, OK, thanks so much. And that's it. Pete Hegseth's hearing is over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
It's going to now go to a committee vote and then a floor vote, which means Pete Hegseth can assume the duties as the secretary of defense likely as soon as Monday or Tuesday. Let me repeat that. Pete Hegseth can assume the duties of becoming the secretary of defense on Monday afternoon or Tuesday afternoon. So here's what happens. They did their advising consent.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
They're going to do a committee vote. And then they have to hold, I think, the floor vote. So President Trump gets sworn in. He says, so help me, God, in five hours, five days and 22 hours and five minutes, five days, 22 hours. President Donald Trump goes to the outer room of the Capitol. It's called the signing room. And he signs the nominations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Pete Hegseth, Scott Besant, Doug Burnham, Kash Patel. He signs all these nominations. And then the Senate will pick it up that afternoon. And that afternoon, Pete Hegseth can then get in a motorcade and ride right into the Pentagon. And Pete Hegseth can then, that evening, around 7 or 8 at night, get to his desk as the head of the Secretary of Defense and start signing executive orders.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
Not executive orders, but memorandums. Only the President can sign executive orders. No more woke-ism. None of this nonsense. CRT. So by... 8.30 or 9 p.m. on this coming Monday evening, wokeism will be on its way out of the military. Of course, there's going to be a lot of excommunication of these demons that have to happen. But the military should not be a sociological experiment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
The focus should be on... should be on lethality and meritocracy. Pete Hegseth understands the mission statement of the military should be to protect our national interests and kill the enemy without apology. Do so quickly. We are not a nation-building operation. We are not an infrastructure organization. We are not a sociological experiment operation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
It is about protecting the homeland and killing the enemies. Lethality, meritocracy. integrity, and fidelity to the nation. Well done, Pete Hegseth. We're behind you 100%. We have been in the trenches fighting for you. And it looks as if, according to all reporting, you are now on a glide path to become the Secretary of Defense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
And if anybody votes against you, there will be a primary challenge visiting your state soon. Mark that down and take it to the bank. So vote accordingly. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing Watch Party
So we can kind of take a step back and frame what's happening right here. You have a frontline fighter that is being grilled by people that have never served before. And I have nothing against people not serving before. I mean, obviously, I have not served. So everyone is allowed to have opinions about these things.

Will, what is your take on Pete Hegseth's nomination and the importance for the Department of Defense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Remember, turn Texas blue, the Texas Blue Project. And it failed miserably, pouring hundreds of millions of dollars, almost billions of dollars. And Texas delivered a triumphant victory for President Donald Trump, a 16, 14 point victories, unthinkable margins.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Will, is it fair to say that the United States military is in a place of crisis right now? Is it fair to say that the military is in free fall?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
So let's let's now take a step back. Your association with the Claremont Institute, I imagine you are not a John Bolton neoconservative because I love the Claremont Institute and everyone there is very rational. But of course, you believe in American strength and American dominance militarily.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
What does the Pete Hegseth nomination and the selection of people like Michael Anton in the State Department and the selection of Mr. Caldwell that is helping out in DOD? Can you explain the philosophical divergence away from traditional neoliberal, neoconservative dogma and where the Trump Department of Defense is going to differ for the better for the American people?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
But what good is a 14 point victory for President Trump in Texas when you have Republicans that are going to work with Democrats to elect a speaker of the House? Joining us now is Abraham George, chairman of the Republican Party of Texas. Abraham, welcome to the program. Abraham, please educate our audience on what is happening in the great state of Texas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Without a doubt. So let me just get this straight. The the traditional neoconservatives are very upset. Let's go theater by theater. The one that is harder to articulate is the rise of China. I am a China. I don't want to say hawk, but I'm certainly I think they're a great enemy of ours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
But am I correct in viewing that some people that have been largely silent on China for the last 20 years suddenly now want us to get closer and closer with a kinetic and hot war? Help me understand how we should think about the rising threat of the Chinese Communist Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
uh unacceptable to them and to make them make it clear to them that the cost will be too high uh to bear so that's what our let's unpack this because so there's something called the thucydides trap which you know which is a belief that when you have a rising power that threatens the displace an existing dominant power that it will almost necessarily lead to conflict or war
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
And I'm starting to listen to some of these people in D.C. and I'm friends with them. And there's not even a discussion. I'm at lunch and dinner with them. They say, oh, we're going to war with China. It's going to happen. It's a certainty. And I just kind of reject the premise. I hope that's not the case. But can you explain that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Because it's now being built into the kind of non-negotiable aspect of even challenging the premise that in the next 10 years, we're going to be in a hot war with China.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Well, and so here's the other component of this. So there's one analysis where you say, OK, war is inevitable with China, and I reject the Thucydides trap. However, the Mark Milley perspective is like, OK, war is inevitable, but what if we decide not to fight? What if we just acknowledge that they're the dominant power and that we just kind of have this fusionism? We don't want that either.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Right. So that is a that is a unnecessarily dovish approach to the Thucydides trap premise. So you could have two really bad applications to this, I think, false premise that we're kind of involved in this inevitable conflict. Can you unpack that to about a minute and a half remaining?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
I totally agree. There's so much there. Well, and this is a I love how you say a failure creativity. I totally agree with that. I try to make my time with bureaucrats limited. And it's really bad for you because I think they're contagious. I think they they shed just really bad energy. And when I'm around some of these bureaucrats lately, not to share any private information,
The Charlie Kirk Show

Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
There there's no depth of thought of analyzing a premise that could result in the worst possible thing. I mean, the Russian Ukraine one is the is the greatest example. We'll talk about this after the break, is that they build all of their second and third movements, their sequential movements. Well, Putin's going to march through Europe just the way Hitler did.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
So if you start with that base premise, then you can get to a really, really bad outcome. Like we have to fire American made missiles into the interior of Russia.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
There is something called low-intensity conflict. Cyber warfare, tariffs, economic prowess. China is entering a near depression right now. The Chinese, they've only been in capital markets for the last 20, 25 years. They are not nearly as strong as you think. We can break the back of the Chinese Communist Party. But D.C. wants to do it with missiles. I think we can do it with markets.

We can do it with our economic supremacy. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Yeah. So to walk through this, there is David Cooks, the conservative choice, Dustin Burroughs, yourself, Cody Harris. So there's a lot of these different dynamics here. Can you just reinforce, though, that there's a group of Republicans that are willing to vote for with a Democrat, Democrats willing to vote with a Republican or vice versa? Just it's so hard for me to comprehend this.

This is extraordinary stuff, Abraham. And so we see this kind of uniparty composition here. Is it time for widespread parties? And by the way, is there anything in the Constitution that prohibits a simple majority vote?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Do Texas Republicans Give the Democrats Power?
Just so you guys understand, it would be like if we did a Speaker of the House in this current House and we had to go get Nancy Pelosi and to go get Hakeem Jeffries to go support our Speaker candidate, correct? Instead, no, it's OK. It's Mike Johnson supported by only Republicans. Is that right, Abraham? And who came up with this stupid system?

Thank you, Abraham. Thank you. Great work. Talk to you soon. Would love to come to your convention. Keep Texas red and responsive to its voters. Are you tired of scrolling through shows on TV and finding nothing but the same mind numbing content? Don't waste your time on that nonsense. Instead, use that time to learn something new and inspiring.

And I just love what Doge is doing. It's going in and it's questioning every little element of waste of taxpayer money. You guys work so hard to send money to D.C. So that's my answer. With the stock market at record highs, are you confident your portfolio can weather the next big downturn? Market corrections are quick and unforgiving, wiping out hard-earned gains in an instant.

Okay, so Trump's been president for six weeks. Sure. Right? So we had an oligarchy as Donald Trump was becoming president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
We had all these agencies. How did they prevent the oligarchy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So they attended his inauguration as an attendee. But let's go through one by one. And they donated to it. So let's go one by one. Sure. Let's first go the department education. So the department education, which I'm guessing you're in favor of like $47 million going to improving learning outcomes in Asia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I do have a question, though. We're not even helping ourselves. Why should we help other countries?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
And then he's funding the Department of Education, funding health care. Let me finish. How does one help oneself? Have educational outcomes gotten better or worse since the creation of the Department of Education?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So I am curious, though, that the Department of Education, we've seen standards go down. They want to send it back to the states. By definition, we have the Department of Education, 11 million people are in education like yourself, 11 million of them. 6.7 million are administrators. 6.7 million are administrators. Can we agree we should fire most of those administrators?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Hello. Nice to meet you, anonymous guy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Are you a teacher? Yeah. What do the administrators in your school do?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I mean, I could not manage my classroom unless I had an administration helping me out. You need five administrators over one teacher. That's the ratio. That's bad. You're right. That's bad. Okay, but that's the current ratio. Five to one. But secondly, let me ask you, this is a very important point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I believe in part of the essence of the Civil Rights Act went way too far, way too wide. Oh, how did it go too far? Well, for example, it created an entire civil rights leviathan that gave us affirmative action. Civil rights leviathan? What do you mean? Yeah, so if you can let me finish three words in. Sorry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
We are now 26 in education. We were top five when it started. We're the lowest in reading, math, arithmetic in the Western world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Department of Education has made our standard substandard, and we spend $250 billion a year on the Department of Education, and yet we can't find a single kid that can read at grade level in a Baltimore public school or that can do math in a Chicago public school, and yet we keep on spending billions of dollars on it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So maybe the solution is crush the current system, send the money back to the states, empower families and parents, moms and dads, spend the money as they see fit, more choice... more competition, and make it localized, not federalized.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Hold on. I just want to make sure I understand. So you're against the money going to homeschooling? Like, what do you mean by this Disney thing? You're talking way too fast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
What is your critique? You're saying $3 billion going to what?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
The problem is there also weren't restrictions on that to limit what the private schools could raise their tuition by. You're totally wrong. I get what you're saying. How?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
It's their taxpayer dollars that are coming back as a refund, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
It allowed the Department of Justice to go after people that have different skin color, a.k.a. white people, and prevent them from getting jobs in college admissions. You have a job. I'm sorry? You have a job. No, you're right. I do. Right.

What is the number one predictor of student success?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Yeah, actually the quality of this teacher. So can we agree at least, because we'll not agree on everything, that we should be able to fire teachers at will?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I mean, you're on the line.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Someone who doesn't listen to their students, doesn't have, is not good at what they do. Graded by other teachers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Okay, but I think that, do we have too many teachers or not enough teachers?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
We need better, higher-paid teachers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Why do you think that is?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
If I'm not mistaken, Florida is in the top five if not the number one on educational outcomes for students, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
On them passing. So that's number one in the country, I think, though, right? And it was like number 30 or 40 back before school choice was. So I'm just curious at your complaint here. It's fine. Let's just kind of go back to the thing. We'll go to the next question. The Department of Education, why should the federal government have any role in education?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
But just until Trump came around, until the Supreme Court decision, thanks to the Civil Rights Act, if you have white skin color, it's much harder to get into a college than if someone has black skin color. Much harder. You have to have higher test scores. It's a much harder pool, largely thanks to the precedent set by the Civil Rights Act, not to mention all the trans stuff that we're seeing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Again, you have not answered the question. Let's just reiterate it. Department of Education got started in 1979. The same sort of nice-sounding stuff we started to do over the last 35, 40 years. And we have the lowest standards ever had. We have childhood poverty all over the place. We have broken public schools because spending money from D.C. does not solve the problem. Empowering parents does.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Parental agency is the solution, not bureaucratic empowerment. Spending money on... Got to get to the next one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. There's a lot of excitement in Washington, D.C. as we start the year. But I wanted to talk to you about something just as exciting happening outside the D.C. Beltway, a revolution in the states. It's the education freedom movement. It's real. It's growing and growing because some states, as they should, are putting parents in charge of the education of their kids.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Everyone knows education has the power. To change a kid's life and anyone who raised a child knows each has different needs, learning styles, and God-given talents. The fact is parents know their own children best, knows what's best for their development and future. Education, freedom, legislation puts parents, not zip codes and politicians in charge of these important family decisions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
It's why I strongly support making universal education freedom a reality for every parent in every state. To find out where your state legislature stands and to make sure your voice is heard, go to educationfreedomusa.com now, educationfreedomusa.com. So you would say I'm a misinformation machine. That's fine. Yeah. Fine. You're a teacher. Yes. What is a woman?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
We're seeing men be able to win trophies and medals from women across the country, and they use the Civil Rights Act to justify it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So I want to thank you for proving a great point. You are why we should eliminate the Department of Education. Thank you very much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Quick. We've done it like five or six times.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Hold on. This is a false argument. I'm glad you're making it. So then we shouldn't cut it because it's not that big of a deal? No. That's not what I mean. So should we cut this? $115 million for equity assessment of existing program policies. One day, one cut. I'm going to make the point, but do you think this should be cut?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
No, I'm going to flash it. Equity assessments of existing program policies, $115 million.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Yes, it should not exist. Why? Why does it not exist? Why? First of all, the president signed an executive order saying no more DEI. Equity assessment should have no place in the U.S. government because equity is not constitutional. It's not in the U.S. Constitution. It's not an American value. It's about redistribution.

Email me as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Buckle up everybody. Here we go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
And $115 million is a grotesque amount of money to spend on it, so you should get rid of it to save taxpayer money. It's not saving taxpayer money. It's $115 million to get rid of this. Now, it's also $144 million here of empty buildings. How about empty buildings?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
You have to go over it in detail. No, we did. That's why there's 97 of them. They reviewed the leases. They're vacated because of COVID. That's $144 million. So right here, I have $330 million. We're going to keep going, right? You can keep doing that, but you have to actually just justify why the policies are helpful or not. This is what's interesting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
They're empty buildings.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
what use is happening with for them other than landlords getting rich for nothing the point is this you think the government is innocent until proven guilty i think the government after what we've learned is guilty until proven innocent they have to justify why this money is being spent in the first place wait a minute that's how the law works innocence of proven guilty you have to prove that
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
That's not how taxpayer money works, though. It's that if we find waste, you're going to have to over-justify why this exists in the first place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Let me go back to a more thing. This is an argument they're making. Oh, it's not that much money. Even if you only save $100 in taxpayer money, that is a moral fight worth having. That attitude is why we're $35 trillion in debt. which is very important. If you annualize Doja's savings, you know how much they're on pace to save this year? A trillion dollars.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
It's Marxism. I reject the framing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
One trillion dollars, which would then get us on path for a balanced budget. They're on pace because you say, oh, it's only a billion here. They've been in for six weeks. They've already saved $100 billion. Yeah. But by December, they'll be at a trillion. Our deficit is one point six trillion. We're going to lower our deficit in such an increasingly important way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
And you're going to learn that you actually don't need these government agencies to run a country, that these people are unnecessary. It's bloated. These bureaucrats don't do anything all day long. And we need to right size it because we're a nation in debt. We know we're thirty five trillion dollars in debt. Yes. In debt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
And the only way we're going to get out of it is if we're honest, be like, how about no more empty buildings? No more $115 for equity assessment program. Biodiversity in Nepal? $19 million?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Okay, so how could biodiversity in Nepal for $19 million? We spent $20 million for a new Sesame Street in Iraq. It's true. You guys can look it up. $20 million for New Sesame Street in Iraq. And because no one has ever had the courage to look through the books and look and examine the expenditures. That's not what's happening. No, it has happened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Biden, Obama, they never looked through any of the federal expenditures. And we got to $35 trillion in debt. This is the first time in my lifetime we have an administration going after the waste, going after the size of government to balance the budget so that you guys don't live as indentured servants and Russian serfs for the rest of your life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I just proved to you that they're on pace for a trillion dollars a month. But even if it's only a billion or two billion, that's admirable and noble. Just so we're clear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
$1.5 million for voter confidence in Liberia? Again, you can say that... Do you know anything about Liberia? I mean, no. I happen to know a lot about it, but that's a separate issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Yes, and they have proven themselves to be robber barons over the last 20 years. That they are spending your money with reckless abandon and total indiscretion. And it's time that... This is what's important. It's we the people, not we the government workers. And we've taken back the government. The government workers are also American people. Yes, but who works for who?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Do we work for them or do they work for us? They work for us! Which one?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
They work for us, obviously. They work for us, yes. So we voted in November by popular vote and electoral vote landslide that this crap is over. And that's what we're doing. We overwhelmingly spoke. And so we're going to go piece by piece, department by department, and this is why it's important.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
You guys deserve a future where you don't have $35 trillion in debt, where you don't have a trillion-dollar deficit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
That's what I mean. Again, a trillion dollars. You have to address this. They're on pace to cut a trillion by December. That's big. Big. That's 75% of our deficit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Do you have to raise taxes or massively cut spending? Got it. Let me just ask one final question. If Trump and Elon get this done and balance the budget and cut all this, will you give them credit?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns

They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
No, there's no working back up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
No, there's no working back up. What do you mean you can't work back up? That's the whole point of conservatism, isn't it? I'm going to keep on taking it from you because that's equity. And you're cool with that. What? But that's not equity. This is equity in practice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
If you give, how do you get? You must take and then you give. Wait, what do you mean? That which is given must first be taken. Well, what's being taken? Well, in this case, grades from you to grades to her.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Hold on a second. No one takes your grades. Hold on a second. You only have so many positions at University of South Florida to come in, right? There's a set number. Let's say it's 20,000 people, okay? And we're going to say we're going to lower the test standards so that somebody that's a woman of color... can come in, and therefore it's harder for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So it's a higher bar for you, lower bar for them. Definitionally, it's a redistribution of test scores for somebody else, just by the definition. And you're okay with that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
How is that, how is that, well, no, now I know who you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
How has that worked the last 40 years? We've had robust affirmative action, we've had hiring practices. Has it made black America more successful?

Let me ask you a very simple question, a term you keep on throwing around. Got you. What is racism?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Hello. Oh, hi. Be respectful, guys. He can do what he wants.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
No, no, no, but what is racism in practice?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Based on the color of the skin, yeah. Got it, thank you. So isn't it racist, then, to then penalize white people to come into college or to get jobs based on the color of their skin? Wouldn't that be racist? Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So you're arguing for a very racist policy, which is that we should actively discriminate against people based on the color of their skin, which is affirmative action and DEI in practice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So let me tell you what we believe, because you tell us what you believe. Your worldview is indistinguishable from the KKK. That you want to organize the world based on skin color. We want to organize the world based on merit and character. Based on how hard you work. What you bring to the table.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
i believe it's destructive and wrong to say that people are going to be organized or have their future set based on the color of their skin i think it's tribalistic i think it is divisive and i think it hurts the excellence of a country you asked a question well how are we going to help other communities you know you help other communities stop pandering to them and start treating them like individuals made in the image of god not tribes to be organized for political purposes

Well, actually, black Americans under Donald Trump in the first term saw the greatest economic renaissance that they saw since the 1950s. Do you not think that's due to Obama, though? Lowest unemployment, revitalization, amazing investment in their communities, opportunity zones. But that's when we had affirmative action, so why wouldn't that be bad?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
Well, again, we actually got rid of affirmative action now. Those are unrelated things, though, just to be perfectly clear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
No, you are. That's okay. Affirmative action is largely federal government hiring practices and the adjacent institutions. I think that all communities will do even better when we stop living under the soft bigotry of low expectations. Inherent in your argument... is that we have to pander to certain communities based on the color of their skin because they can't do as well as white people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I reject the premise. I think that we should try to say, I don't care about the color of your skin. I care about what you bring to the table. And stop pandering to people based on special criteria, points, and acceptance to college, saying that we're going to make it easier for one group and harder for another group.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I think it's understanding the respective circumstances and working based on that. Do you think that we should have black-only dormitories in America? No. No, why would I want that? Okay, well, there's hundreds of schools that have those, actually. When you say black-only, like, white people are not allowed in at all. No, white people are not allowed in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
White people, yeah, that's why I said white people are not allowed in. Correct. We have black-only graduation ceremonies across the country. Well, those are from, I believe, those are most likely like HBCUs, right? No. Like, the University of Michigan has one, Yale has one, Harvard has one. So we're agreeing that that is wrong. That is the furthest extension of hyper-race obsession.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
So you could choose one or the other. You could be race-obsessed or merit-obsessed. We as conservatives decide to be merit-obsessed, to build a country based on how hard you work and what you're able to deliver.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
But if you if you heard there were white only dormitories, there'd be marching in the streets, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
I'm not recommending it. I think actually segregation is wrong and evil. And we're heading, until Donald Trump, we were heading in that direction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
They're Back! Charlie's "Prove Me Wrong" Table Returns
In a year from now, we're going to have the greatest economy ever. They're going to say it's all Biden. It's all Biden.

Yeah, I mean, I think that more speech is always better. Again, this is going to sound somewhat polarizing, but I don't think it's the right that's polarized in the country, and I'll prove it to you. Donald Trump has two people in his cabinet that ran for president as Democrats. Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy. It's the Republican Party that is the unity party, welcoming more people in.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We're the ones that go to these campuses and have an uninterrupted mic for two hours. I mean, do liberals come to campus and have an open mic for two hours, we can say? Really? That's interesting.

I think we're getting less polarized because we won in November. Thankfully, there's all this clamoring minority of people that are angry because USAID doesn't exist.

What Islam has shown to be in Europe, what Mohammedanism has shown to be in Europe, is the rusty sword that is slowly slitting the throat of the West. Why would we keep these people here? Go back to your own country. Do you have private student loan debt? If you do, listen carefully. Or do you know someone that does? Maybe your brother, your sister, your aunt, your uncle, your son, your daughter.

Over $300 billion in America is private student loan debt. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. Why refi refinances distressed or defaulted private student loans that others will not touch. They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. Why refi does not care what your credit score is.

Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless and they've even lost hope. Why refi gives you a light at the end of the tunnel. Go to Yrefy.com. That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Call 888-YREFY34. You can even skip a payment for up to six months or up to 12 times without penalty. Bad credit is accepted. May not be available in all states.

I do want to caution you on something, though. And I'm seeing this start to bubble up. I'm seeing it in the grassroots. I'm seeing it on some of the college campuses. I'm seeing it in some of the crowds that people like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are drawing. The left is waking up. Since the inauguration, even since Election Day, we said, where is the resistance? Where is it?

Yrefy offers a three-minute rate check without any impact to your credit. Go to Yrefy.com, Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Byron Donalds is with us here, the next governor of the great state of Florida. Byron, thank you for coming on the program. Great to see you again. You helped us out with the Turning Point USA event the other day. Great to see you, my friend.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
So, Byron, tell us your agenda of why you are running for governor of Florida, what you hope to accomplish, and your vision for the great state of Florida.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
I mean, so let's let's talk more about just the growth of Florida and the need to have leadership that will make Florida probably the center of the planet. I mean, there is an opportunity here, Byron, with New York collapsing. with L.A.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
becoming a massive slum, that Florida could, no exaggeration, Miami and South Florida especially, it could be what John Lennon would say the center of the world as New York once bit. Now, I know you don't want all the same liberal nonsense, but talk about how you think you could get the crypto energy, the finance capital, all to migrate to Miami and to make that the new center of the planet.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
It's not in the streets. It's not protesting. And for a period of time, that was absolutely true. During the inauguration, it was not to be found in the streets. There was no Women's March. The left is starting to wake up. They are getting out of their slumber. And I'm not saying this to try to depress you. I'm not telling you this to say that everything is coming to an end.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
So I want to just I want to ask you something, Byron, that you mentioned during our dinner on Sunday that should have received more news. You went to Selma and you were the only, I believe, Republican kind of part of that delegation. Bring our audience into the room of what you learned there, why you visited and the importance of your visit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Exactly the opposite, actually. I'm telling you that. Of course there is half the country that opposes what we're doing. Of course there is a significant portion of America that wants to see the federal government keep on sending out erroneous checks. The left has been poking around and looking for a spark. This last weekend, Elizabeth Warren drew 2,000 to 3,000 people in Texas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
So, Byron, I know you got to dash in a second. Tell us about the CR, how you are thinking about it. Are you going to vote in favor or not? And make the case to our audience, because I will be honest, I know you feel this, Byron, because you're in the grassroots right now running for governor of Florida. People are so upset with Congress. They're saying, where's the goods? Where's the progress?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Where are the bills? And we need to start seeing some action, action, action. So bring us into the room, Byron, how you're thinking about this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Byron, excellent work. We're behind you 100 percent. Everybody should support Byron Donalds for governor of the great state of Florida. Byron, congrats. We're behind you. Thanks so much.

That is 1-800-4-RELIEF, 1-800-4-RELIEF. Okay, there is this show that is called Love is Blind. I don't quite understand the premise of it, why they're having their wedding be filmed, what kind of crazy people would do this, and then she walks away at the altar.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Anyway, so apparently the whole shtick of this TV show, which people voluntarily spend their time to watch, which is if you're watching shows like this, you need to make major life adjustments. So apparently, the way it works is that these people don't see each other in person for the first while, and you propose without seeing the other. That doesn't make any sense to me, to be perfectly honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
I mean, that's not a game-changer crowd, but it's something. Bernie Sanders drew a similar crowd in Wisconsin, speaking of which, Donald Trump Jr. and I will be in Oconomowoc—say that three times fast— On Monday, which is a suburb of Milwaukee, we'll be having a great town hall. These are just some data points that I want you to process.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
I thought they knew each other. She says, I really care about you and I know about you, so how is it that they didn't know each other? And the whole premise of this show seems really like a waste of everybody's time. However, it's very revealing. And what is revealing is Okay, they meet after the proposal, but then how did she say she cares about all this stuff? That doesn't make any sense to me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
So you only meet them in real life very briefly before deciding to get married and all this is filmed. Again, if you do this on camera, there's something like deeply wrong with you. Anyway, okay. So apparently... Okay, so apparently they talk and talk and talk like speed dating and then some of them get engaged. People do this? This is terrible. And they all do it on camera.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Again, this is so dysfunctional. I can't, it's just, it's a worldwide thing. Who watches this stuff? Losers. All right, anyway. So apparently they have like the United Kingdom, Australia, Sweden. Like there's so much better stuff to do with your life than watch this stuff. It's just unbelievable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Anyway, all that being said, there's a very viral clip that is awfully instructive of a crazy white liberal woman, which, by the way, men, let me just give you some dating advice and life advice. Stay away from liberal women. Please stay away from them in this situation. It is this modern political climate. Now, maybe liberal women like 20 or 30 years ago, it could have worked out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
It is so bad right now. You need to stay away from these far left people. Watch for yourself. Play cut 65.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Okay, I don't understand how they could say I love you so much if they've known each other for six weeks. Whole thing's very dysfunctional. Okay, but then this is what went really viral that I want to comment on. Play cut 66.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Okay, so apparently she says, I'm not going to marry him because he doesn't believe in marriage equality, the vaccine. Here's where he went wrong. Obviously, she's psychotic and should never be married. If he would have actually stood up to her and said, no, actually, I don't believe in the vaccine. And actually, no, I don't believe in BLM. And I actually love my church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Deep down, she would have respected it even more. The fact that he was neutral is where he went wrong. If he would have stood up to her and was like, yeah, actually, what do you mean? She would have actually deep down been totally attracted to him. She would have been like, well, maybe I'm wrong. Deep down, women want to be led. The problem is not that he had different political views.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
The problem is that he was too vanilla about it. She would have respected him for being strong. Deep down, she would have been like, well, maybe this guy can then end up paying the bills and defending the family. Instead, he was a coward. So everyone is going after this crazy liberal woman here. In reality, it is the man who is spineless. That's the buried lead of all this. And it continues.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
It's very tempting to believe that just because the left has been asleep the last couple of months since we knocked them out in November, that they are going to stay asleep. Bernie Sanders is probably taking the most potent line of criticism, saying that we must fight the oligarchy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Let's play cut 67, everybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
So it's this clip going viral. Everyone is kind of ragging on the girl. Of course, stay away from liberal women. Got that? That should be assured. Stay away from liberal women. But no, in reality, women should also stay away from men like this. They both lucked out. This guy is the problem with America. beta, coward, oh, I don't remember the sermon. You know what he should have said?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Yeah, actually my church believes in traditional marriage and believes in the Bible. What are you going to do about it? Love is blind. I don't need all of you guys anyway.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
By the way, do you know the hilarity of this is that if he would have taken a stand for traditional marriage and Christianity, he would have like 55,000 dating increase right now from wonderfully pious, single Christian women that are far... more pleasant than the blonde Rachel Maddow that he was going to go marry. He would have become a folk hero.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
You be true to yourself and you stand up for what you believe in. Again, the easy kind of surface take is yes, of course. Why are you bringing in BLM and the vaccine? By the way, anybody in this audience, let me just tell you, do not marry or date somebody that does not share your values. Period. Do not do that. Conservatives, do not date liberals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
If you are dating a liberal, you should break up and find somebody that has your value system. You're not going to change them. The world has changed too much. Maybe 20 or 30 years ago, that could have been the case. It is different now. Everything is politicized. Everything comes through that lens. They will raise kids differently. They'll watch different news.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
They'll listen to different podcasts. They will worship differently. So don't do that. But the big takeaway is this, is that they're both what's wrong with America. Not just the woman, but the man even more so. Because her views very well could change if she had a man to lead her. The reason why she believes all that stuff is she's never encountered a strong man.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
She's never encountered a strong man to course correct her. It's the problem with left-wing feminism is it's all just a bunch of women sitting in a circle talking about their feelings and not a man with masculine energy course correcting the error to introduce truth. And finally, to the audience watching this show, if you watch reality TV, you need to repent and you need to stop doing that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Now, of course, the oligarchy that is actually running the country is an unelected deep state bureaucracy sympathetic to the aims, wants, and ambitions of growing the size and scope of government, not the idea of people like Elon Musk. But for someone that doesn't quite understand what is happening in D.C. right now,
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
You are wasting your life. You are wasting your time. Reality TV is a toxin. It's like alcohol. It's like marijuana. Stop using it. You're so much better stuff that you could use your time. Take a Hillsdale online course. Go for a walk. Work out. Lose 20 pounds. Stop drinking beer. Go to church. Read a book. Any book. Find a job. Listen to a podcast. Listen to the Charlie Kirk show. Lift weights.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Go for a run. Get good at something. Stop playing video games. Do something productive with your life. So that's my take on this program. I never knew it existed. I did not even know that love is blind was a thing. But for the women out there, don't become like her. But for the men out there, that's what you create when you are not a man. Stand up for yourself. Have a spine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Go up against the crowd. Society needs alpha men. And that joke of a beta coward, I don't even know his name, he has a lot to reckon with. And finally, he needs a better pastor. Good pastors create strong men. And if his pastor was actually good, it would have rubbed off on him to then become a leader in the community, which then would have stood up for truth. in this ridiculous game show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
And finally, you go to church all the time and you're on this like reality TV show. What kind of Christian are you? Anyway, stop watching that stuff. Yes, at least that pastor is theologically sound. Pro-traditional marriage. But he's not that good of a pastor, apparently. Hasn't rubbed off on him. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.

the bipartisan bureaucratic regime that has existed for the last 100 years called the administrative state, it sounds and feels good. So the left is starting to awaken from their slumber. Is it going to ramp up even further? Possibly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
And that's why everyone in this audience, it's time to continue to stay engaged, to keep the pressure on the Democrats for why they are not supporting President Trump's agenda. to stay involved in your local county committees, to stay involved in your local Republican Party. Some of you might be saying, but Charlie, we just had an election. I'm exhausted.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Look, our offseason in politics is like the hockey offseason. It's like 90 days. It's like the baseball offseason. It's like maybe 100 to 120 days. And we have not even rested. We did not take any time off. Neutral gear is the kiss of death in politics. Acting as if you are in the happy, agreeable middle. Instead, if you are not on offense, you are on defense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
And if you're not first, you're last, to quote a great scholar from Talladega. This is, the energy of the left is going from one issue to the other. They're still trying to figure out the best one to completely resist us on. You had Al Green shout out at the speech last week. And the Democrats did us a great gift, by the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
They did a great gift last week when they were not applauding the kid with brain cancer. That had real rank and file impact. But the base of the Democrat Party, and the Democrats are trying to build a base-first strategy, as you would expect them. The base of the Democrat Party is getting animated and fired up. Yesterday, there was a phenomenal announcement from President Trump and Marco Rubio.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Now, President Trump and Marco Rubio's strategy is they want to first find a singular person to deport and make the case around this person that is on a student visa, supported Hamas, and should be deported back to their country of origin. So you're going to now know the name Mahmoud Khalil. The left is trying to wake up their rank and file troops around this individual.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
The Trump administration has been trying to deport him. A federal judge just blocked that. Again, the idea of these judges coming in and blocking the action of the executive branch, it is an intentional run out the clock strategy. Let me be very clear. The Democrats are trying to use district court and circuit court judges to block President Trump's administration to run out the clock.

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
So major protests are now breaking out all over New York City in support of Mahmoud Khalil. They're trying to turn him into a martyr. Well, President Trump ran on a promise to fight against the pro-terrorist, anti-Jewish radicalism that has been flourishing on college campuses. One of the ways he vowed to do that is by kicking out agitators coming here from abroad to study on our campuses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
American citizens have strong freedom of speech, but there is zero reason that America should be welcoming foreigners from abroad whose chief occupation will be to agitating on behalf of American enemies who murder women and children as their primary strategy. And that is exactly what Mahmoud Khalil did. Now, he's not some kid. He's not 18 or 19 years old. He's a 30-year-old.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
He's 29 or 30 years old. A former Columbia University graduate student. In the words of the New York Times, Khalil was, quote, the public face of protest against Israel. He wasn't just some guy that showed up at a rally. He was the public front-facing face of what happened at Columbia University. What Khalil did went far beyond attending marches or writing op-eds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Just this past January, Khalil was in a group that disrupted a Columbia class on Israeli history to attack the country. and the professor for, quote, normalizing genocide. Khalil collaborated with students who started a tent city on Columbia's campus who illegally took over a campus building, though he didn't participate directly in these events, perhaps to avoid deportation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Khalil distributed pamphlets on Hamas's propaganda titled, quote, Operation Al-Asqa Flood. Al-Asqa is, of course, the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Our narrative. Al-Asqa Flood is Hamas's code name for the October 7th terrorist attacks. All of these actions violate the rules that Khalil had to come here as a visitor, to come here as an immigrant. Khalil claims to have a green card at this point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Doesn't matter. It should only come down to this fundamental question. Would you... Would we have let this man into our country in the first place, knowing he was a public Hamas propagandist who participates in illegal protests? If the answer to that question is no, then that's also a perfectly good justification for revoking his green card. Staying in America is not a right. It is a privilege.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
And Mahmoud Kamil threw this privilege away. Stop subsidizing people who hate you. Stop inviting people into your country, into your living room, that want to kill Jews and kill Americans. Mahmoud Khalil will be the first of many students and many people on these college campuses that are professional agitators. They all have to go back to their country of origin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Being in America is not a natural right. It is a privilege. You must earn your right into the United States of America. And if you were out there at Columbia University fomenting anti-Jewish hatred, fomenting anti-American hatred... You are kicked out of the party. You're a guest here, and your guest past has been revoked. And Mahmoud, you are the first of many.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
My opinion to the administration, my advice, because I will be going to the White House later today and seeing some folks, my advice both publicly and privately is very simple. Don't make Mahmoud Khalil the singular martyr here. Start rounding up dozens of these people. Make it a group of people. It is a lot... harder to have a mass resistance
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
in favor of a group, because then it just looks like a terror group, than one person, because then Mahmoud Khalil is going to start to become a larger-than-life figure. People are going to start wearing pictures with this lunatic's face. Don't underestimate the left's desperation to get out of the wilderness and out of the abyss. Their desperation to try to climb out of this hole that they're in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
And they are in a hole. They're in a bad position, but they're starting to wake up. And we can't be too high in our own supply acting as if the Democrats are going to continually be in this position. They're going to adjust. They're going to adapt. It is driving them nuts that they don't control the federal bureaucracy right now, that they don't control the White House. They are going to adjust.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Our enemy is going to come back twice as hard, and we better be prepared. They're not just going to roll over and say, here are the keys to the entire country. Here's Rashida Tlaib, a very suspicious individual, who says this is a big deal about Mahmoud. There is a pro-Hamas wing of the Democrat Party. In fact, I think it might be the entire Democrat Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Now, I don't know if the pro-Hamas strategy is smart for the Democrats long term, but I do think it will absolutely wake up their rank and file. I think they're rank and file the college educated white young liberals of New York, L.A., Boston, Portland and Seattle. They're the same people that would they will change out their shirts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
At first, the shirt says get the vaccine or else you're a terrible person. Then the shirt says Black Lives Matter. Then the shirt says no justice, no peace from the river to the sea. Palestine will be free, which is a call for the abolition of the state of Israel and the murder of Jews. Play cut 63.

Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Amazing to be driving through this town knowing that President Trump is in the White House. It should never be lost on us. Just God's grace and mercy on all of us. Even the days that sometimes you wish things could have went better. And even when you say, I don't know about that, it is still an amazing day in America because President Trump is in the White House.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Okay, a couple things wrong with this. Number one, he's not a citizen. Green cards can be revoked. Hilarious to hear Rashida Tlaib all upset about constitutional rights after peaceful January 6th protesters were hunted down by the FBI for the last couple of years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
And Siaka Massaquai, who did not go foment rage in favor of Hamas, but instead took a step into the Capitol and step out, had his pregnant wife hunted down by FBI agents at Van Nuys Airport or whichever one it was. Burbank Airport in California. Really funny to hear her so concerned about this, but Mr. Khalil, Mahmoud Khalil, does not have a right to be here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
You must earn your right to stay at the United States of America. And he has lost that privilege. He has lost the privilege to be here. This is cultural suicide. This is not what the founding fathers had in mind. By the way, as we're talking about it, Blake should pull up some of Thomas Jefferson's very crisp comments on Muhammadism. The founding fathers were no fans of Islamism at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
Some people say, oh, the founding fathers didn't comment on Islam. That is not true. Thomas Jefferson fought the Barbary Coast Wars, our third American president. and spoke extensively about the medieval savagery of late 1700s and early 1800s Islam. Hasn't changed that much, actually. The Barbary Coast Wars were actually in Libya that the American Navy lent support to.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is the Left Waking Up? + Charlie's "Love is Blind" Reaction
But actually, I do agree with that. That would be a good op-ed. What did the founding fathers say about Islam? Be a very interesting little nugget. But the founding fathers that would say, you know, let's just go allow the importation of people who hate you.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
All right. I think you're going to get this, though. All right? I'd better. You're not allowed to get it wrong. What Roman general was awarded the Spoila Opima, the rarest military honor in Roman tradition? You can't look it up, Blake. For killing an enemy king in a single combat was the only third man in Roman history to receive it. Ugh.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
Yeah, it is, but it would have some connective tissue there. So of all the history stuff, is Rome the stuff you know the best?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Someone said to me recently that, and correct me if I'm wrong, I heard this when I was in D.C., that trying to get Vladimir Putin to approve this peace deal would be like the fastest military decision for the Russian government in like 200 years. Yeah.

I had it while I was at the White House, actually. We got this done. My conversation with Antonio Gracias from the White House. All right, everybody, Charlie Kirk here live from the White House with a very interesting man, Antonio Gracias. Antonio, great to meet you. Thank you, Charlie. Good to meet you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And so I first became aware of you by reading Walter Isaacson's book on Elon Musk, which we won't spend too much time on all the inaccuracies. But I think it did paint a broader macro vision of quite honestly, one of the most compelling people ever to live and the most compelling innovator of our time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
You've known Elon for quite some time, and right now he is villain and public enemy number one of the activist left. Tell us about your story and how you met Elon and what people should know about him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So I find that to be one of the more unique things about Elon is that he's a visionary, but also he's micro. Yes. And it's very difficult to find the macro and the micro combined.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
With drive. I find the combination of those three things to be exceptional. Talk about that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
What is his drive? Because a lot of people are trying to ascribe motivations to him, world's wealthiest man. What keeps him going? Why is he only sleeping three hours a night and obviously putting some of his wealth, not in jeopardy, but just saying, I don't really care? What is his why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
Think about it. You have all segment to think about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
We're also going to have a conversation. Blake is like jostling back and forth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
They threatened to arrest him, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
I completely agree with that. He has a huge heart for humanity, which I think really is his why. Talk about the last five to 10 years where it went from Elon, the innovator, to all of a sudden he got more and more involved in, you could say politics, but just kind of some of the cultural issues.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And I think his purchasing of Twitter, now X, will go down as one of the most monumental and courageous decisions for freedom of speech in the history of the species. Yes. I don't think President Trump would have had the movement. President Trump deserves all the credit, but I don't know if he would have had the movement behind him if X would not have existed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
We would not have been able to expose the COVID lies or the lockdowns or the open border if it wasn't for a free and open portion of the internet. Did you see a moment where really a switch went on, where all of a sudden he saw a sequencing where like, if we don't win back the White House, then these other 100 things that I want to get done for humanity will not be able to happen? Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
I don't fault you for getting it wrong because I can't even pronounce it. I know what it is. I know what he got it for. I can't remember the guy's name.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So now fast forwarding to today, one can make the argument, I would actually make the argument that going to Mars, having autonomous vehicles, it's gonna be far easier than actually getting Congress to want to cut spend.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
Okay. But I want to just pause you. I mean, you have been involved in the hardest things an entrepreneur and innovator can be involved in. I mean, just what Tesla was up against to get car output. You guys had people short selling your stock. I mean, you've been up against the wall multiple times. Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So let's talk about that. I just want to go back a little bit. So Doge was born out of a spirit that our government is wildly inefficient. There's programs that should not exist. And if I were to kind of read into Elon, who I've had the pleasure to get to know and I have enormous respect for, I think that a switch also went off in his head where he said, hey, if bankruptcy, then no civilizations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
It's Crassus. Marcus Licinius Crassus.
The Charlie Kirk Show

But Elizabeth Warren or one of our friends on the other side would say, Antonio, that's just a billion dollars.

Just to be fair, I asked ChatGPT for the hardest PhD advanced level questions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
It's not material. And I said, well, it's not material. So just to make sure I'm clear. So when I file my taxes- In two weeks. Can I just say that the money fell off my tax return? No, you were in jail. You were in prison.

Want to know why your New Year's weight loss resolutions keep failing? Here's the shocking truth. It might be your sleep.

Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers can help.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
I will. You got to earn it. All right. But speaking of which, so Blake, I stumbled upon this about someone in D.C. I was just in D.C. recently. I was at the White House. And they said, Charlie, we really think you should do a segment to look into this because it deals with the college scam, the college cartel. I never even heard about this. I thought this was a water company, Springer Nature.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
Unlike other magnesium supplements, this is specifically formulated for maximum absorption. I'm a big believer in making sure I get magnesium in my daily regimen. Go to magbreakthrough.com slash Kirk. That is magbreakthrough.com slash Kirk. No, but so, I mean, I want to just drill on this one micro example.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
I mean, don't we have like wire transfer information where like ACH, I mean, money must be sent somewhere, right? If it's not an account. Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So I, sorry to interrupt, but like, are the auditors, the US government, are we hiring like McKinsey? No, it's outside auditors. I'm going to, you can go look it up. No, no, I know. I'm just like, but like, they have to stake their entire reputation on this, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So if you, you're an investor, if you came across a company like this, What would be the first thing that comes to mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So that's just the Social Security Administration in just one year of what you know of. Yes, yes. But your critics will say Antonio wants to cut Social Security.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
That's a really important point. And I want to talk about that for a second. Because what I find when I talk to bureaucrats, which is not very often they don't talk to me. But at least those that have, let's just say, bureaucrat worldview. Yes. There is a disconnect of whose money is it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
If I had to distill the divide that runs this town, it's the patriots, such as yourself and Elon, look at you guys as stewards of somebody else's money that is sent into the system. Whereas the permanent bureaucracy, they actually view it as the government's money.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
I thought this is like Dasani. And it's all about basically academic journals. effectively funded by the taxpayer. This is a world that most people don't actually know about. So let's first just explain the medium. What is this whole academic journal world? How does it exist and why does it matter?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And the people just loaned it and then sent it back. We collected what was rightfully ours. Yeah. Do you think that is a properly distilled analysis?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So looking now, is it fair to say your assigned task is the Social Security Administration? Are there any others under your purview under the kind of Doge umbrella?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And so where the Doge taxpayer thing comes in is that there's this whole analysis about the Department of Education. Where's this money going? And so and you have some of these numbers here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
So Springer Nature, this company, which is one of the biggest incumbent actors, is effectively funded by the Department of Education because these colleges spend hundreds of millions of dollars on these journals. What?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And they'll charge this to universities.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
According to what I was sent, they charge researchers upwards of $11,000 per article.

The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And they collude to not pay peer reviewers. Well, for example, one of the major reasons we have large language models that are advancing was the Google paper in 2017 by eight authors. You know about this? Where it was the famous, I can't remember the name of it. We'll find it out. But I think they released it to the world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
And they didn't put it down behind some sort of a syndicate. And so the I want to dive more into this in the next segment, because I and I have I owe you another Roman history question. But this this is one of the the Springer nature is an example also of like why college is so bad. I mean, it's like and some of these are very poorly managed publications as well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
All right, I'm going to scold ChatGPT then. I'm going to say you're wrong about number five. Incorrect answer. Yeah, it's actually correcting it. It's now says Marcus Claudius Marcellus. Was that the answer you first gave? It wasn't the one I gave, but I looked it up because it didn't sound right. Got it. So it corrected itself. Blake correcting chat GPT is quite a sight to be seen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
Email us freedom at Charlie Kirk dot com. Based on everything I'm seeing about the Springer nature thing, I think it's time for some sort of investigation. Why would the federal government be indirectly funding this? Basically, this cartel, the syndicate from poorly managed publications and also all the covid nonsense that's there. Blake, I owe you another question. So stay right there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Science Cartel, the College Scam, and the DOGE Defenders
But I think it's time for someone to look into Springer nature. Private student loan debt in the U.S. totals about $300 billion. Give YRefi a try at YRefi.com, Y-R-E-F-I.com.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
That's right. And look, I mean, I just I'd lived a little bit of it compared to the January 6th. I mean, not even close. I mean, these guys went through absolute hell and people that literally were, you know, is the government going to come after me? Is the government going to raid my house? And I mean, the only comforting thing is that as soon as Congress was reaching out to us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
that there was a pretty good understanding once we started, you know, setting up the hearing, the discussion, that the FBI probably was not going to come sweeping. But they could have, right? I mean, any time. But it was kind of a different track. But, you know, there was this concern that first month, those first couple of months,
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
after January 6th, it was like open season where we were worried that they were just going to go after anybody that had any sort of remote connection. And not that there was anything that there would be found, but just the public embarrassment and they coming through your office and grabbing your devices and just would have been even more trying. So praise God, we are through that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
And it's really just remarkable. We look at this certification vote here on January 6th. Yeah, go ahead, Jack.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
So I'm not exactly sure how to answer that. Andrew, what do you think?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
I said I was very much not there. I was literally on air in Phoenix.

Okay, Jack, you decide where we go next.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
What do you mean? The part about the lawyers or the subpoenas? Wait, wait, go to the lawyer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Are you sure it's not you, Blake? Are you sure? Yes, Charlie. You had to do this preemptive denial.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
No, I said that on the show. No, I mean, it's not a mystery. People know that I was subpoenaed by the January 6th committee and we had a lawyer, but I had to go through 10 different lawyers before the 11th said yes to represent me. That is how just let's say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
I think it's a Reddit troll. I don't think this is real.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
how toxic anything surrounding january 6th was was that if you were even remotely connected or not even connected just in the universe of the discussion which is where i was i was in phoenix i was i was broadcasting live we were calling balls and strikes it was we weren't involved and yet the The lawyers were like, no, we don't want anything to do with that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
So help me understand, the wife is approving of this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
There are entire law firms that will go out of their way to represent terrorist bombers, to represent the worst people in society. But we just remember back to where we were four years ago. It looked as if this was the death sentence of the modern conservative nationalist populist movement. And four years later, it looks like it's the exact opposite.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
I'm very pro-New Year's. Very. I think it's really... I've always been... I totally disagree. I think it's incredibly powerful. And I think, first of all, just the idea of...
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
you wanting to be better at something i think is a phenomenal thing acknowledging that you're not who you yet want to be and that you want to aim at a higher point and that you want to be a better version of yourself i i look back at my life some of the greatest accomplishments i have have been thanks to new year's resolutions
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
When I listened to Dennis Prager teach the entire Torah, that was a 2023 New Year's resolution. My New Year's resolution last year was to work as hard as a human being possibly can to get Donald Trump elected president. I have New Year's resolutions for this year, but who could be against that? Who could be against that? the idea of self-examination and wanting to be better.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
And who cares if you don't keep the New Year's resolution? That's not the point. The point is that not even that you try, but you acknowledge that you are not all that you yet want to be. What am I missing, Jack?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
It looks like we are entering an American Renaissance, that we have more momentum, that we have more power. We control the House, the Senate and the presidency. Popular opinion. It's remarkable to witness and see. So thoughts, guys, and kind of your lessons over these last four years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Yeah, that's a resolution. It doesn't matter if it's on New Year's or not. Just New Year's is a good way to try to wipe away the old year and go into the new year. I also just love New Year's Day. This New Year's Day was awful. Well, it was great until it wasn't because Oregon lost in a humiliating fashion. That's okay. Besides that, it was great news. It was humiliating. It was awful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Such a surprise. Yes, I do know that it was a surprise. It was not good. But I did go through my entire phone. I do this every year. I just kind of go through like, oh, who are people I haven't contacted before and people I haven't reached out to and just spend a lot of time doing that and trying to just send a bunch of messages. I love doing that on New Year's.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
So anyone have a New Year's resolution to share?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
yeah my resolutions i gotta finish my sabbath book go ahead no you go go for it charlie no i just said i want to finish the sabbath book i want to read i wanted to read a hundred uh books but we'll see if i get their audiobooks count and yeah i i have some other resolutions too uh just health stuff uh that i want to uh hit go ahead andrew yeah i just wanted i was i was reflecting on what jack said
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Well said. Andrew, thank you guys. Jack, Blake, everyone, email us your New Year's resolutions, freedom at charliekirk.com. We'll be back with another show on Thursday. Thanks so much.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
No, I didn't say no. I did not say no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
For the record, I had great attorneys. I had great attorneys. Jeff Neiman and Josh Levy were great attorneys. And they said, and they prepped me, they said, only answer your name and nothing else. Because we were invoking our Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination. And I said, okay, just to be clear, nothing else. And they said, yes. I said, OK, so nothing else. They said, yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
OK, so we're in there. And so I said my name. And then Jack, read the rest.
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Yeah, there was only one member of the committee that showed up. So it was mostly staff. And then at the end, Adam Kinzinger showed up towards the latter end of our Zoom call.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
It was a Zoom call.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
65 there's got to be some it was even worse than that as you say because i i was uh i was saying the entire time because i they told me my instructions and i was not messing around right like okay how old are you and i would read on the piece of paper no no i didn't say i said i invoke my constitutional right and like so then they eventually would say you could just say fifth amendment i said okay got it so
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Yeah. I got nothing else to say. But no, I mean, look, it was that was a very expensive, very trying thing unnecessarily. Right. And because, look, I mean, Steve Bannon went to prison by this very same committee. Peter Navarro went to prison from this very same committee. I mean, it was serious stuff. And so but just going through that whole process, it definitely I'll be I'll speak.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
I can speak candidly about this part. There's nothing to talk about, but I'll just let the testimony speak for itself, which is my testimony will tell the whole story. Is this, look, and I think it's very clear that this hardened me in a way where I knew we had to win or else this country was going off a lawfare cliff, the likes of which we would not survive.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
The likes of which that would completely... obliterate this nation and destroy this country and so it made me want to work harder hire more ballot chasers and eventually uh play a small role in the greatest political comeback uh in history hey look this was summer of 2022 by the way if you look at the uh

People would be crawling over broken glass to represent you. Well, I don't know about that. But I will say this, though, that it's not just like you call them up. You have to do an introductory call for all of them. And they're 45 minutes to an hour in length because they want to find out what you are. It wasn't just like, OK, they said, oh, well, let's do an introductory call.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
All the fact they ask questions, then they come back afterwards and reject you. And so you have to keep doing this. And so finally, after like the eighth one, I was like, can you just tell me, is this going to can you just run a conflict check? Do you have a policy? And finally, one of the lawyers was like, yeah, that's not gonna work. Great. You saved me a whole hour.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
And finally, by the 11th, a lawyer in Florida who's awesome, Jeff Neiman, who just was like so prepared and was like, yep. He's like, I fight the government for a living. And Andrew, I think you met him. Great guy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
welcome to thought crime monday what it's monday and we're doing thought crime that's right uh because of new year's and christmas we missed a couple episodes and we want to make sure we made good on that and also january the 6th which is definitely a day where thought crimes must be said i don't know who i have with me because i can't see the whole lineup i think we have jack andrew and blake am i guessing correctly that's right yep
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Well, yeah, it's like, so Jack's here. Jack was actually at the Capitol and I wasn't, I had to go through that whole rigmarole. And again, I'm not saying, you know, I didn't do anything wrong. Jack didn't do anything wrong. I'm just saying it was just ridiculous that the whole thing had to occur. But I mean, let me ask you guys and Blake, I want to get your thoughts on,
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
What do you attribute our ability to kind of climb out of the ditch? Was it the metaphorical, our back was against the wall and we had no choice but to fight? Walk us through it because objectively, it's one of the greatest turnarounds in a four-year period we've ever seen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 68 — J6 Retrospective? New Year Resolutions? "Gaycations?"
Very good. All right. Who wants to take the first topic? I believe it is January 6th related. Jack, please proceed.

"The Most Horrific Sex Crime in British History" - How Britain Surrendered to Migrant Monsters
For decades, in all kinds of British cities, mostly the British equivalent of the Rust Belt and Appalachia, places with deindustrialization and downscale whites, there's been a massive resettlement, legal resettlement of Pakistani migrants. For decades, these Pakistani migrants have collectively groomed young girls, many not even teenagers yet, for abuse and sexual assault.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Most Horrific Sex Crime in British History" - How Britain Surrendered to Migrant Monsters
The specific allegations are often really terrible, like women gang raped, burned with cigarettes, tortured in various ways. One girl went missing and was allegedly turned into kebab meat. Her killers were set free after a jury could not reach a verdict. Now, police knew about this, but routinely did nothing because they feared accusations of racism. So they did not enforce the law.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Most Horrific Sex Crime in British History" - How Britain Surrendered to Migrant Monsters
They did not go after this in the way they should have because they didn't want to be called a racist. The press knew about this too, but it wasn't covered much and politicians did nothing. People who talked about it or tweeted about it could end up investigated. This all blew up because Musk finally started talking about it.

Winston, phenomenal summary. Thank you for that. We have some certification is, by the way, Donald Trump is now certified the winner of the 2024 election. So praise God for that. Why did this take so long to get covered? Why the indifference? Why is it just kind of the shrugging? And I need to emphasize something you said towards the beginning.

And as we look backwards, you couldn't write it better. It's just poetic. It's Shakespearean. It's full of immense drama. Kamala Harris resides over the counting of the election results to have to declare herself the loser. Have to declare herself that she did not win. Play cut 26.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Most Horrific Sex Crime in British History" - How Britain Surrendered to Migrant Monsters
And I want to congratulate Kamala Harris for making history today. Kamala Harris is the first woman of color to ever certify her own election defeat. But we're not sure exactly what color she is. It's a little unclear. But she is the first person of color to have to say, I am the loser! Donald Trump won so triumphantly. He won such a landslide. He won so overwhelmingly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"The Most Horrific Sex Crime in British History" - How Britain Surrendered to Migrant Monsters
You helped deliver the victory. They just, they're defeated. Here is the more operative and curious question. What did Kamala Harris have to drink this morning before having to certify these election results? She did not look good. It's good old mommy's little helper Valium. With, she seems to me, a wine drunk. Half a bottle at lunch, full bottle at dinner.

Kind of that nice, in her opinion, measured drunk. She's recently seemingly forgot to... Know the words of the Pledge of Allegiance? So good riddance to Kamala. Today is a huge setback for the Great Reset. Today is a dark night of the soul for the globalists. And let us not get too cocky or too prideful. Let us not get too ahead of ourselves.

Let us still stay in the humble place that we were when we were in midnight 2021. When they were raiding our homes and they were going after all of our friends and they were going after Bannon and they were going after Navarro. Got to keep the foot on the gas. We have 14 days. You know what happens in 14 days? In 14 days, Donald J. Trump says, so help me God.

In 13 days and 22 hours, to be exact, Donald Trump says, so help me God. We have a straight shot and a lesser appreciated little element that I can just say is just awesome. J.D. Vance from Ohio becomes the next vice president of the United States. That is pretty awesome. I just kind of look at my life and look at how I played a small little role in all these things. We went all in on J.D.

Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program.

Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier.

Judge, I love watching you every day on The Five. It is awesome. And you bring the heat. I mean, you've known President Trump for quite some time. You've known him personally. He's a good person. He's a dear friend of yours. What is your take on these last couple of weeks? It feels like it's been almost two years.

The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
I don't want to get too ahead of ourselves here, but it looks as if we're going to have every one of Trump's selections put into the cabinet. Is that fair to say, Coach, that he's going to run the table?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
And so just a side note, they are losing. Why is it that we haven't seen any adjustments from the Democrats? They seem to be doubling and tripling down on their most unpopular radical ideas. What is that all about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
What is your reaction now, Judge, in closing of the governor of New Jersey? I want to play this again, basically taunting the feds to come arrest him. You are a judge.

Well, I think it would be great. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez needs to take Constitution 101. her and Ilhan Omar, what I would give to have them have mandated Hillsdale online course sessions. Sit down, put down the phone. You can't film yourself. You have to learn. You got to learn. Do you think AOC knows that there are seven articles to the U.S. Constitution? Can she name them?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
I would love to be able to somebody, some intrepid media person, figure, some intrepid young fella with a phone in their right-hand pocket. Can you just go up to AOC and very politely and ask her, what is Article 3? What is Article 2? What does it say? Who wrote the U.S. Constitution? Tell us about the Federalist Papers. Can you name a single one?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
You see, AOC went on this very interesting tirade against Elon Musk. AOC says to Elon Musk, that you're not very smart. So the world's wealthiest man that has figured out a way for rockets to land themselves, she's now going after his intelligence. Now, mind you, this is not... They're not sending their best to attack Elon. This is AOC who's saying that Elon is not very smart. Play cut 88.

She said some really dumb things over the last couple of years. This might be the dumbest thing she's ever said.

I mean, these are, I actually met one of them in the White House. This incredible young kid, Ethan, I think was his name, because they've all been doxxed.

The smart guys in the media, I put in air quotes, were saying there's no way these guys get through. We got them through. There is a pattern here, and it really started with Hegseth. Coach, I believe I saw you at Pete's swearing-in ceremony, if I'm not mistaken. It was kind of a whirlwind morning. I came over and said hi. Everything changed with Hegseth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
I mean, and you could tell this guy has an IQ well over like 160, 170. Does AOC have an IQ over 100? We don't know, actually. It's TBD. It's fine. I mean, she can serve in Congress and go make videos like this. But she wants to embark upon the intelligence debate? I would sit that one out. Not exactly a qualified discussion for her.

President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
So, Coach, in front of us we have pretty miraculous, looking back a couple weeks, and now we are seeing the legislative agenda start to get more clarity. What can we expect out of the U.S. Senate? We know about this one big bill or two bills, but there has to be other smaller pieces of legislation that you are working on, other topics.

There are reports that we know Pete Hegseth is on the border, that military aircraft is doing reconnaissance and surveillance flights over the interior of Mexico. If President Trump were to approve surgical military strikes against the cartels, what would your reaction be to that, Coach?

Look, I mean, I think it's morally very simple. If we are willing to provide cluster bombs to the Ukrainian army to fight Russia, if we are willing to send American missiles into the interior of Russia, why would we not be willing to strike the cartels that have killed our kids? You can have mixed opinions about Russia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
We're no fans of Russia on the show, but they're not killing kids in suburban Birmingham right now. Russia is not killing kids in Scottsdale. The cartels are. And I think it's long past time that we wipe them off the face of the planet. You've been vindicated as we've now stopped the practice of subsidizing abortions in the U.S. military.

Thank you. I have two questions for you. Are you unknowingly missing out on God's blessing by not aligning your investments with biblical principles? Would you like your hard-earned retirement dollars to support Israel, God's land, and chosen people?

If convicted, the individual can face five years for every each instance of harboring and 10 years if it was done for financial gain. Encouraging or assisting illegal immigration, 8 U.S. Code 1324, sub dash 1A, part 4. It is also illegal to encourage or assist someone in entering or remaining in the United States illegally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
Penalties for this can also include significant prison time, depending on the nature and the scope of the offense. Yesterday, a clip surfaced of the deeply unpopular governor of New Jersey, Governor Phil Murphy. who was in some sort of an interview and was bragging. He was bragging that he is breaking a federal law. Governor Phil Murphy is breaking 8 U.S. Code Section 1324.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
So smug, almost taunting the federal government to come after him. Let's play Cut 69.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
So we don't quite know what that means, an immigration status, not where she wants it to be. Is it someone illegal, someone waiting for paperwork? We don't quite know. But it sure sounds like the way he ended that statement, that he is taunting federal authorities saying, I'm breaking the law. What are you going to do? I'm the governor of New Jersey.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
We have no choice. If Governor Murphy is breaking federal law and taunting and provoking the feds, just file an indictment. You don't have to raid the governor's mansion. You don't have to make some big spectacle. But you have no choice. You don't get to selectively choose which immigration laws you're going to live under.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
And I would do a wide-sweeping indictment of everybody involved in such circumstances. Either we're a nation of laws or we are not. And if you do not like 8 U.S. Code Section 1324, then go to the House of Representatives and have them change the law. Change the law. Don't say I'm not going to live under those laws. Remember, they were telling us under President Trump, no one is above the law.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
Well, here you have a governor admitting that he's breaking federal law. And in a non-dramatic way, very matter-of-fact, very business. You don't need to do a big press conference. Investigate it. If it is true that the governor of New Jersey is indeed harboring an illegal alien, file an indictment. Make him stand and say, hey, you can turn yourself in whenever you want.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
You can go bring your state troopers. You come in for processing. You have a week to do so. We're not going to go raid the governor's mansion. We're not going to go make a big spectacle out of it. We're not going to go do the Mar-a-Lago thing. But we've investigated it. You're breaking the law.

The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump Is Getting HIS Cabinet, Not Washington's
You have one week to turn yourself in to the Southern District of New York or the New York, New Jersey U.S. Attorney's Office. And thanks for playing. And then Governor Murphy is going to have to, he's going to try to make himself to be some martyr, a martyr for harboring an illegal alien against federal law. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

Was USAID involved in the Maidan revolution, which led to Zelensky and then the Russian invasion of Ukraine? Is USAID involved in all of the money in Afghanistan? Yes. Hundreds of billions of your taxpayer dollars sent in every little corner of the planet unnecessarily. We have big hearts, and so no one ever wants to go after – USAID, the United States Agency for International Development.

Here's an interesting question. How many other countries send aid to America? Because East Palestine could use some aid. And Beverly Hills and the Palisades could use some aid. And North Carolina could use some aid. Oh, so we're the piggy bank of the world. It ends. We're no longer the dumping ground. We're no longer the ATM. We are no longer going to finance all these abstractions.

I totally agree with you. And so just the objections that some of these senators are raising. are so weak. And I spent a lot of time over the weekend trying to contact some of their senators or friends of them. So, OK, well, what is it? What is the issue here?

Wow, that was a pretty amazing press conference, President Trump. Just to recap, creation of a sovereign wealth fund, explaining of the tariffs, understanding that these other countries are mobilizing forces to the southern border.

I will join you in launching primaries against these people. It's so inexcusable. There is there is no argument there. I want you to dive deeper into this, Megan, because I was really taken by something you said on the Mark Halperin show that I totally agree.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
that there are millions, we don't know the number, but a significant portion of moms and women that are now Republican and voting Republican because of the Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard unity party. When I speak to DC insiders, they think that's overrated, obviously, because they're high on their own supply. I know it's not overrated.

And again, they don't have a Senate majority because of James Lankford. Let's be honest. Millions of moms did not show up to go vote. It was because of President Trump's understanding and ability. And honestly, he deserves a lot of credit for giving them the highest possible promotions of Tulsi and Bobby Kennedy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
Let's talk about the Bobby Kennedy wrinkle for a second because we have touched on Tulsi Gabbard. He especially has put a health emphasis and a health focus on the Republican Party that moms are very conscientious of that otherwise was not an element.

You remember, Megan, like 10 or 15 years ago, that was a primarily Democrat kind of coalition, eating healthy, having more questions about the health care system. Now it seems it has come to the conservative and Republican Party. It's not just politically advantageous, but it's also the morally right thing to do with our kids being so sick. And so inexcusably drowning in chronic illness.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Bobby Kennedy represents a 10 to 15 percent boost, I think, for the Republican Party. Please speak about that.

USAID is not a government agency that you'd be talking about very much. It stands for the United States Agency for International Development.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
You see, part of the whole idea of America First is examining the finances of our government and asking very simple fundamental questions. Why are we spending money on this? Is this a good idea? Why are we doing this? USAID is a grift. It is a grift. The amount of money that we spend on USAID is shocking. Shocking to most people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
We are talking about tens of billions of dollars, at least $50 billion that we know of. And when you dive into some of the examination of the money, we're talking about funding hit pieces on our own citizens. Today, there is some major and massive breaking news of President Trump fulfilling the mandate. President Trump going all in with the help of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio. Boom.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
15,000 people being put on administrative leave. Sorry, you can go work from home. Now, that is the precursor to potentially being able to terminate them. This is a deep state slush fund. There was an entire division of USAID funding LGBTQIA plus programs in Asia. Being gay in Asia is what your taxpayer dollars were funding. And I got a brag by someone in the administration right now.

Someone who's been a 10. Someone who's been a 10 is Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio has been a 10 out of 10. I've known Marco for a while. We really got to know each other the last six months.

He's now the acting director of USAID. Now, you might think, oh, USAID, it helps all these countries. It's a bunch of malarkey, BS, balderdash, rubbish. You want to go help a country? Go donate to Samaritan's Purse. Go donate to private charities.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
This is a deep state slush fund to make foreign tin pot dictators rich, to make Zelensky and his oligarch friends be able to buy $100,000 of Hermes and Chanel purses. This is nothing more than wire transfers to the worst, ugliest people on the planet or to get us involved in foreign wars. We do humanitarian aid to undermine foreign governments.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
This is going at the heart of the matter of the globalist international empire. And now 15,000 people are now put on administrative leave. This is the new acting director of USAID, who's also your secretary of state. He's been a 10, Marco Rubio. Play cut 45.

Tulsi is one of the greatest people I've ever had a chance to know. And joining us now is a dear friend of Tulsi Gabbard, Megan McCain. Megan, great to see you. Megan, you and I have been on different sides of certain issues during the Trump era. But we're on 100% agreement on Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy. So great to have you here. And I've really enjoyed your commentary in support of both.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
Did you know that we created a fake Twitter knockoff to promote subversion in Cuba? Should we overthrow the Cuba communists? Maybe. We shouldn't do it through a fake humanitarian aid organization that isn't accountable. President Donald Trump is not just running on the idea of America first. Why are we sending money all across the world on these little silly projects? Cut it all off.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Charlie Kirk and a McCain Join Forces?
Re-examine it. Does it help the country? Does it help the homeland? And USAID, oh, all the worst people in D.C. go and they'll have little meetings. Can we do $30 million for gender mutilation in Senegal? And then a lot of it gets rerouted back to friendly contractors and organizations that are part of the racket. You have to wonder, has USAID been subsidizing color revolutions internationally?

Can you show me an example? of Jews living peacefully under Islamic rule?

When the Hamas had Israeli captives. Have you seen the pictures? The Israeli captives they killed?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
There was a nine-month-old baby that just got returned home as a corpse. They're not killed. By Hamas. No, but I am interested by what you're saying. So, again, this is why it's important on this topic to stay on the moral domain, because all of your numbers are wrong. 65,000 kids have not died.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
None of that is correct, and that's okay. It's fraction. I don't believe any of the numbers. However, the point is this. If Israel laid down its weapons... Yes. They would be eliminated. No, they would not. You just admitted they would take over Israel. If Hamas laid down their weapons, we would have peace. Most definitely not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So I don't remember. Did I say I wanted to cut social welfare programs? Well, when did I say that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
The emotions of this topic are very high. Obviously, my allegiance is first and foremost to America. I'm interested in it just from a moral standpoint, though, which is why is it? Help me understand. There are well over 40 Muslim-majority countries in the world. over a billion Muslims. Israel is the size of New Jersey, and it has half the world's jewelry, about 7 million people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Why can't you just let Israel exist and leave it alone? Why the focus? Why the intensity? Why the anger?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
There's no anger?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I agree. That's why I think October 7th was the beginning of the unraveling of a lot of decency and conflicts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah, yeah. On social welfare. Yeah, of course. Yeah. But foster care is a unique thing because these are kids that are not yet of the agentic age to be able to produce or get work. So obviously there's a role for foster care system, but it's incredibly broken. Let's be honest, the foster care system is one of the most broken, cruel and unusual portions of our government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So if it was really like, hey, they wanted to resist, they should have went after IDF outposts and picked a fight with somebody their own size. They went after little kids in nurseries, in kibbutzes. And I think you have a moral right. Hold on. You're very well read on this topic. You have family there. I think you have a moral obligation to watch the GoPro videos.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I will show you everything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
No, no, I've seen what you've seen. But I want you to look at the guys that for three hours straight were watching GoPro videos laughing, putting babies in ovens.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Yeah, no, I'm happy to. And the fact you don't even know it exists is very telling because that's why Israel has become so aggressive in return. And understand the background. Yes. Is that the Jewish people have still not repopulated themselves to the pre-Nazi Holocaust levels.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
How many people do you think died in the Holocaust?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Seven to eight million is usually the number?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay, so what number do you believe? And why does it matter?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Does it matter?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Is the Holocaust real?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Then it shouldn't matter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Yeah, there is a record of the death. And so we know how many Jews that there were in the country and in Europe, and they have not yet been able to repopulate to those same equivalent numbers coming back. So, look, I think we don't agree on anything, and that's okay. I would love to see an end to the killing. However, there needs to be three. Let me ask you my three-part question, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Do you believe anti-Semitism is real, wrong, and evil?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay, good. And Israel has a right to exist. It's a super easy three-point question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
It's not that complicated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Well, a Semite comes from somebody from the Samaritan region, right? Yes, Semitic peoples, which consists of... Right, I could have finished the answer. But, yes, from the Samaritan region, that is a term that has largely been popularized in the last 1,500. So let me be more specific. Anti-Jewish hatred. There you go. Is that fair? Yes. That's evil, wrong. Yes. Okay. Israel has a right to exist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Yes. Yes. Okay, good. And that since we posit that Israel has a right to exist, that we need to come up with some solution where all people can live peacefully in the region. A two-state solution. Okay, or a one-state solution, or a three-state solution, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So not necessarily a good one to be defending, but it should be completely blown up and reconstituted in a new form.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I don't speak on behalf of Israel, but if a group of people go and murder 1,200 of your own people for no reason, I don't think I'm going to give them the keys to Jerusalem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling

Guys, please show respect to everyone asking a question, okay? Thank you very much.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I totally stand by this, by the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I just mean the sign language interpreters during the disaster proclamations that didn't exist when I was a kid. And for whatever reason, I have to look at them and it distracts me when I'm trying to hear what the person has to say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
They had ASL interpreters, so it didn't save their life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Your argument is not founded, because every California broadcast requires ASL interpreters, so how could it have saved their life if it already existed?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I'm curious. Why can't people who are deaf just read closed captions?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Hold on, you can do closed captions in Spanish too.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I picked this fight for a very specific reason. It is a small portion of the population.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
It's obviously unnecessary. And it's kind of in your face of this nonstop virtue signaling thing. that we're going to keep on adding new trappings to appease new groups for no good emergency response reason whatsoever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
No, it does. Why would you say that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
No, I think you can go back to how things were under Katrina, or you just read closed captions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Can you give me evidence it saved lives?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay, so let me just make sure I understand. And I don't know the answer to this, but do you think that in how we do broadcasts or whatever, we should have pandering subsets to every single portion of minority populations?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Like, for example, should we just say we're not going to do the broadcasts with audio anymore because of hearing-sensitive people that don't like... I mean, we can get to some extremes here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Well, hold on. Them being left behind is a separate issue than adoption, right? So, correct? Correct. Because that's about child abandonment, not about people that want to adopt kids. So let me just give you the numbers. There are about a million abortions every year. There are about 3 million people on the adoption waiting list.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I'm against changing what has worked to try and accommodate very small portions of the population that have outsized ability to complain for no reason whatsoever. And that has wide-ranging civilizational implications. I think closed captions have worked. They do work. And by the way, you know the amount of deaf people that reached out to me saying ASL is a racket and that closed captioning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I mean, I opened like this huge fight. The ASL Association came after me like this whole thing. I love all people. Some of my best friends are deaf. And it's not about that. It's a broader question of where are we ever going to draw the line as a country that maybe this pandering has gone too far.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Again, you can kind of tell I'm pushing the boundaries intentionally because I think that if somebody doesn't say this is silly and stupid, nobody will. I mean, at some point you get to the place where you have to say, no, what is the purpose of this? Why does this exist?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Honestly, God bless you for wanting to serve people that are not able to hear. I think that's really admirable. I think that's great. Whether or not it's part of like a mandated emergency broadcast is a completely different issue. So I wish you well. Thank you for your comments. Thank you. Thank you.

I will say, look, I naturally do not have a lot of self-control, but I believe it's a fruit of the Spirit, which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, and, of course, the last one, self-control. And I believe that those of us that are Christians should invite the Holy Spirit into our life on a daily basis. And that is a fruit of the Spirit.

Uh, great question. Let me just pause and say, guys, I have a rule that I will not do a topic more than twice. So this is the last time on Israel. Okay. And just to be, if you, I know people are fired up, not, I'm happy to talk about it, but this is not the Charlie Kirk Israel hour. So is that, is that cool? So this is the last time and then we'll show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Otherwise this only becomes singular topic focused. I'm sorry. Yeah. No, no, no. It's don't apologize. It's fine. So you're asking, do, do losers get property rights? Well, I, let me just kind of push back. There has been self-government autonomy of Gaza since early 2006. The West Bank is largely self-autonomous and has sovereignty. So they do have property rights.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
What they've done with those property rights has been pretty lackluster. It's become basically a hellish place to live, unfortunately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
No, actually, no, we have plenty. It's just bureaucratic red tape, really. It's incredibly hard to adopt a kid in America. Incredibly hard. Needlessly hard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I would love to say yes. Let me tell you my biggest issue. And you might agree or disagree. Is this your... The first issue is this, is that Hamas was democratically elected. There is support for Hamas within the people of Gaza. Now, I don't trust these polls where they say, and this is even from some of the pro-Israel voices, they say, oh, you know, Hamas is supported by a lot of people.

The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I look at a singular piece of evidence, which is when the Hamas terrorists did what they did on October 7th, they were greeted with widespread parade and celebrations in the streets of Gaza. That's troubling. That's troubling. So the biggest problem is, is Islam in its current form? Can Islam in its current form foster a free society?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
And that's a question because in the implementation of Mohammedan Islamic jihadism, will they respect the elements of a free society? And we don't have a lot of evidence to suggest yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I mean, it doesn't seem... They do, and they probably end up will. This idea of them moving in and out is logistically so impossible, I can't even wrap my head around it. What I will say, though, is that this is the more complicated, and I don't want to get into this, is like whose land is it and exactly who is the Palestinian people? Those are much more complicated questions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
For basically as long as there has been a Judea and Samaria, it has been the nations of Israel for about 3,000 years. There have been Jews in those regions. What is a Palestinian is a much more complicated question because that is actually a new term. So is a Palestinian an Arab? Is it a Muslim? Is it someone from Jordan? Is it someone from Syria?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
That is the best answer, right? Well, again, what is Palestine is another question. I actually believe in people's right to self-determination, that if you say you are a people, you become a people. I believe in that. However, their claim is on an ethnic one, so they're inviting the criticism, if that makes sense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Of course, but they don't live in Gaza.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay, well, I believe in a small but strong government. And for the record, I believe that someone who took a life should have their life taken.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Again, I don't want to go too deep in this, but the parts that were questionably Israel's have been largely given back. The Sinai, in particular, was given back to Egypt. There were lots of land for peace deals, and that almost never works. You seem very reasonable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Here's what bothers me, is I've dealt with a lot, and I've got to know, as you can tell, the previous young man that was up here, with a lot of people from this region that are wicked smart. I think they deserve better than living under a radical Islamic totalitarian government, and I want to try to see them get closer to a free society. And I don't think under current Islam that's possible. Sure.

I think if you take a life, your life should be taken.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
But let me ask you a question. What do you think would be a just punishment for a murder of an eight-year-old?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay. So is there any circumstance where you think the death penalty is okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
OK, so but let me let me understand. Why is it that if you kill 10 people, such a morally different thing than killing one person?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Well, hold on. You're against it in some circumstances. You said school shooters, so there is a threshold where you're okay with it. I want to know by what moral standard you say it's okay, not okay, and where do you get that from?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I just want to know why you believe it, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I'm not trying to put you on the spot. Be nice, guys, seriously.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I know that sounds good, but isn't that what justice should be? Justice is the administration of what is due. You should get what you have done received in return. Not more, not less.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I'm going to be gentle because I can see you're a nice person. OK. However, let me just kind of tell you why I think you're wrong. Is that OK?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
OK. So everything the government does is a statement of some morality. Right. Everything. If you lock up somebody in prison, that is taking away their freedom or liberty. So you have to make at some point you have to say, I am appealing to some objective standard as to why I think the government should do what it does. And we have an answer to that question, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
I just want to know by what standard you think the government should be able to do that it does or does not do. Because the government does take life. And the government should be able to take life, very sparingly and rarely, through a jury of your peers and you're proven guilty and all sorts of these different elements. And you believe that even with mass shooters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So there is a degree of which you think that justice is due. So the question is, this is a very important point that you stumbled into. We as conservatives try to strive for blind justice. Those on the left will argue for social justice. Is that a fair categorization?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Social justice is saying, no, you should not be given what you are due. You should be given more or extra based on some sort of group criteria, some sort of background, some sort of suffering. We as conservatives believe in the ideal that you shall not favor the administrative justice just because of your skin color, background, wealth, so on and so forth. Does that make sense? Yes, I agree.

So how would I curb that? I mean, well, look, understand APAC is constituted of Americans that are advocating for a foreign policy thing they care about. And it's a very dangerous road to be on. There are groups of Armenians that advocate for the recognition of the Armenian genocide. There are groups of American Indians that recognize for better relations with India.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
And it just so happens there are a lot of American Jews that argue for a very strong relationship with Israel. So can I better understand the question?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay, there's a lot there. So how do I think of Israel as an ally? Is that what you're asking? As America using it as a proxy to keep a chokehold on the Middle East. Well, I kind of reject the premise of that. I mean, I'm very pro-Israel. I don't think they're perfect. I think they do a lot that I wouldn't do and that I don't support. But I don't know.

And why so? For many reasons, for military technology sharing, for data sharing, for also they're a free society and an island of totalitarianism.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Okay, so let's make sure we get our terms right. I don't want to spend too much time on this, but what is a genocide?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
How? So you're telling me... Hold on, let's get back. Did Hamas then commit a genocide on October 7th?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So both sides are committing genocide.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Oh, okay, so it's justified to go into nurseries and slit babies' throats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Oh, no, no, they did. Okay, okay. Hold on, time out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Where's the evidence? I can show you GoPro footage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Hold on a second. GoPro footage of hours uninterrupted of Hamas terrorists wearing GoPros, slitting little babies' throats, going into rock concerts and indiscriminately raping women, kidnapping them and bringing them back to Gaza. If you'd like to watch that footage, you can. But you said, I need a clear answer. Just make sure I'm clear. A genocide is the targeted mass killing of people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So Hamas is guilty of genocide.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Yes, the right to bear arms, the right not to have soldiers quartered, and the right to privacy. Exactly. We can keep going.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So... First of all, the Second Amendment is not applicable outside of the shores of the United States. So not sure where you're going with that. But I want to make sure I'm clear. Let me just have you answer this final question. If a foreign power commits genocide against you, as you admit Hamas did, how should Israel respond? By... Okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
The Arab-Israeli war. Hold on a second. Time out. On October 6th, the day before, was there an act of war?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
Why do you think there's a group of resistance living there when resistance... Okay, no, I can... So I just want to make sure I understand the argument that this has been a bubbling up conflict since the 1950s. Most definitely. It has been prior to the 50s. Let me ask you a question. Israel got out of Gaza in the early 2000s. Yes. Gave it to Hamas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling
So do you see a through line here, guys? And it's important, though. It's always somebody else's fault.
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Death Penalty? Israel v. Hamas? Calm Under Fire? + More From USF Tabling

Thank you. Absolutely. So, Mark, the obvious question is, what are the two paths in front of us? If Republicans just win the fine election in Florida and maybe even get the upset in Wisconsin, which I find to be very unlikely, what happens? Paint the picture here. What will these special elections tell us, if anything, about this new, interesting moment in American politics?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
So when I visited in Wisconsin to advocate for Brad Schimel, and if anyone can hear my voice, you should go vote right now in Wisconsin for Mr. Schimel. There were some protesters, not a lot, outside of the event I did with Donald Trump Jr., but almost every single one of them, Mark, were anti-Elon signs and chants and not anti-Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
You're the closest I can get to understanding kind of the Democrat chatter, of course, other than talking to Gavin Newsom, but we'll put that aside. What are Democrats telling you about their newfound anti-Elon strategy? Is this more of a gut instinct that they should go against Elon? Is this driven by the base because of the anger of what he has been financing or doing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
Or is there real data that is supporting their strategy? And let's put all the physical arson and stuff aside that that is no place in our politics. I just mean the the political messaging where they're going all in on a referendum on the world's richest man.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
So that invites another question. AOC and Bernie Sanders are drawing legitimate crowds as someone who's in the business. I see the crowds. They're big and they're certainly that of note. We're a way out from an election, but there's something there that is worthy of thinking about the Elon, the Elon anti Elon effort.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
if properly, let's just say, played out, could result in this smash the oligarchy and a legitimate economic populist left-wing movement that Biden and Kamala Harris were always a little afraid to fully play into. Do you see that that under the surface, that sort of fight bubbling up in Democrat circles, that spirited conversation? Which way left wing man to go further left or to moderate?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
Bring us into the room of what Democrats are saying.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
The two issues that seems to be a little bit of bubbling up of conflict is on the radical trans stuff, especially in women's sports with Gavin Newsom, and then on the immigration issue. Are Democrats... thinking of moderating on this, or is this just Gavin doing his podcast and doing this performatively or rhetorically?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
I'm asking for a simple reason, because they're so out of alignment with the American people that we are owning the 80-20 issues, it seems, with no desire for them to even come to how Bill Clinton did in 92. Right. So so I guess my question is this. Do you think this will be a Democrat moment because you understand the history better than anybody else, Mark?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
where the Democrat nominee will be one that goes to war with their base on two or three major issues, saying that we're not going to embrace open borders, this trans thing's out of control, no defund the police, or will it be a McGovern election where the base triumphs in an all-night party? I think it was in Miami they had their convention that year, if I'm not mistaken. Yep.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
And they just go all in. Where do you think the temperature is or is it too early to tell?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
That's such a smart point. I haven't heard anybody say that, Mark, because it seems from us on the right, it looks like the left is very desperate. They're willing to do whatever it takes. What you're saying is they're not quite as desperate yet. They're not as desperate to forsake the key and core radical left elements of their new coalition.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
That's remarkable. And again, it's bad for the country as a conservative, I would say. But I guess for our own political ambitions, I guess they can keep on embracing these out of touch issues. 30 seconds, Mark. Yes.

Politics means more to a leftist that doesn't have friends, community, or church life. And so this is how they are able to have meaning. Fill out your ballot. Get involved with your Supreme Court race.

WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
So it's very hard for people that have a vibrant connection to their local land, to their local community, to their church life, to convince them they're tired of hearing about politics all the time. They said, I just got Trump elected. That's the challenge. Tyler, is it correct to say that if we lose, we will not lose to Crawford. We will lose to the couch. We will lose to not voting at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
So what can we do to change it? So when you're in focus groups, Rich, and you do some of the best polling because you do conversations, what does a Trumplican, so Trump first, Republican second, tell you when they don't want to vote in a special election? So, for example, Elon Musk coming to Green Bay, big deal, meaning that got a lot of eyeballs.

What would be the strategy that you would like to see Republicans and the Trump White House embrace for the remainder of this year?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
I think that's right. So let me ask you one question. I'm going to also ask Mark Halperin this later in the hour. The Democrats seem to be going all in on an anti-Elon message, even more so than an anti-Trump message. Is there data to support this and will it work?
The Charlie Kirk Show
WHY WISCONSIN MATTERS — Election Day 2025
The only pushback I would have, Rich, is that if they're going to go full populist asking the question, why don't we just take $100 billion out of Elon's net worth? I'm telling you, the politics of envy is hard to defeat. Just look at the Russian revolution, the Bolsheviks, the French.

Senator, I want to continue this conversation about President Trump's tariffs and Liberation Day. It is time for us to reindustrialize the country. You have a background that I think would be interesting. You've done a lot of venture capital. You've done a lot of investments and things that have actually built stuff in this country.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Talk about the need that we invest in the backbone, in the muscular class of our country.

The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
I want to play this piece of tape here. This is cut 124. This is Japanese executives now admitting and acknowledging their planning U.S. expansion. You see, that's the thing. How do you avoid a tariff? You avoid a tariff by just making your good here, by building a factory in Iowa or Kansas, Mississippi, or in the great state of Florida. Let's play cut 124, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
President Donald Trump has said that there is going to be a liberation in this country. There will be tariffs put on every country that has tariffs against us. There will be reciprocity and there will be tariffs across the board. The Trump administration is planning its biggest round of tariffs yet this Wednesday. Now, do not look at your stock portfolio. Do not do that this week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Separating the design and the manufacturing is two completely different things. Senator, your reaction to both clips?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
So, Senator, how do we empower Congress to deregulate the ability to build factories and to have manufacturing here? The biggest hurdle to manufacturing in America is not wages. It's actually the regulatory hurdles and the cost of building. Are there any ways that Congress or the Trump administration can lower those barriers?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Make a promise to yourself. Take the app off your phone. Do not look at your stock portfolio. Say, this week and maybe for a couple weeks, I am not going to look at it because it's going to get a little bit bumpy. We're in for some turbulence. Now, we already have tariffs on Canada and Mexico, but what we're getting now is a big wave of reciprocal tariffs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
So, Senator, shifting gears here for a second, there is a fair amount of consternation around the special election in Florida. I'm told that we are surging. What's the latest that you've learned?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
And so, Senator, more broadly, why is it that we are struggling, at least on the surface, on special elections? And how do we change the Republican Party's approach to some of these off year and spring elections?

Senator, thank you for your leadership on all this. Just really quickly, anything happening in front of the U.S. Senate this week that our audience should be aware of?

The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Senator, thank you so much. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Charlie, have a good day. Bye bye. Thank you. We see it all the time when I visit college campuses. Young adults demonize the concept of free markets and think government is the solution to every problem. How do we change this? By teaching our kids the foundational principles to counter what they are taught in public school.

These are tariffs that President Trump is imposing as retaliation for similar tariffs that have imposed on American goods in other countries. For example, India has a huge tariff on Harley Davidsons, just stuff like this. Big screen TV tariffs in Japan. If we are going to be tariffed, then we will tariff back.

Here is how much money that could be raised through tariffs. Now, mind you, this is only taking imports, then dividing the percentage that could come in as revenue.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I actually hope it's not this much because I want the manufacturing base to then onshore into the United States of America. But just look at the enormity of money that we've been leaving on the table. Play cut 118.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
And when you look at the entire picture, the entire analysis, it's very clear that we hold the cards. We still hold all the cards. Now, that window is going to close. If President Trump delays this even two years, China could surpass us. This is the only window where we could do this. And look, all the Wall Street types I have CNBC on, they're getting very jittery.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Ooh, the market might go down a little bit. Look, I don't want to discount that. That's people's 401ks. It's their savings. It will recover and recover with gusto. But Wall Street has become short-term thinkers. What built the West? Many things. Christian values built the West. A belief in the divine. But also a Christian principle that is directly at odds with third world nations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
A Christian principle that is directly at odds with why people stay poor. If you had to distill all the reasons why somebody stays poor, there's one major reason. Instant gratification versus delayed gratification. It's one of the main reasons why people stay poor. There are cycles of poverty. If you look at third world nations, they consume what they grow immediately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
They don't save for the future. The West was largely built on a principle of delayed gratification. I might suffer today, but my children will prosper. I might struggle today, but my children will flourish. I might have a tough day today, but my grandchildren will live in a free society. And we have now assumed the instant gratification mindset, the very same one
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
that is at odds with our birthright. China is our chief foe. They think in terms of 50, 100, and 250 years. In order for us to compete, we need to think longer than your three-month 401k Wall Street portfolio. We need to have the intergenerational maturity to say, my goodness, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. And if we fail to do it, if we fail to rebalance, to reconfigure, to redomicile,

We have to teach America to make things again. We have to applaud the people who shower before work and after work. And we've lost those 5 million jobs in the last 20 years.

That's a record, and there are no signs of things getting better unless we took dramatic action. America has been becoming a country that produces nothing and only buys. That ends in national bankruptcy. We are seeing a geopolitical restructuring on our terms. We have a choice. We could ignore what is obviously the rebalancing of the international world order and continue to be a consumer economy.

If you are strictly a consumer economy, you are subservient and held hostage to the internationalist and globalist forces. We are tired of being cheated, and President Trump has talked about this issue for decades. We have one shot and one shot only to fix this. We have one opportunity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
While we are still the wealthiest nation in the world and the incumbent economic player, we have one chance to do this. You see, post-World War II and the World War II-based order, America decided to become a consumer economy. We don't really make much in this country anymore. We make mobile apps. We build homes. And we have a banking sector that is robust and the best on the planet for now.

What else do we actually physically make? Now, there are some small manufacturing companies that have still persisted. But we signed a series of trade agreements. The North Atlantic Free Trade Agreement, NAFTA. We allowed China to go into WTO in the late 1990s.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
We also have decided to get rid of almost all tariffs over the last 30 to 40 years because we believed that free trade would make us richer. Now, while free trade has allowed us to get more stuff, has it actually made us a richer country? I had this debate with a strict libertarian on campus. He called himself a libertarian economist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
And I said the political question is not just whether or not we are getting economically wealthier. It's whether or not our communities are strong. Our families are staying formed. It's whether or not an average worker can afford to have his or her part of the American dream. It's whether or not we have a vibrant and connected culture in our country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
We have lost 5 million manufacturing jobs in the last 20 years. 5 million. And what we have learned is that when we lose those manufacturing jobs, when those factories are closed... There is a wage reduction for that worker by 11 to 22%. This was a bipartisan study done by Congress.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
So when a factory worker is no longer building a dishwasher or a big screen TV or a pickup truck and they find a replacement job, there is a wage reduction of 11 to 22%. Wages since the World Trade Organization entrance of China into this compact and since NAFTA was passed, wages for the bottom 10% have only rose 4% over the last 30 years. We have closed 60,000 factories in the last 12 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
60,000 factories. We call them the muscular class on this country, and the muscular class has been completely and totally decimated, eliminated. In 1985, it took 30 weeks of work to support a family of four. 30 weeks of work to be able to have housing, health care, send your kids to school, get a car. That means you could save money. That means your wife did not have to go into the workforce.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
She could if she wanted to, but if she wanted to be a stay-at-home mom, it made financial sense. Now it takes 62 weeks of work for an average worker to be able to support a family of four. 62 weeks of work. Which means that one of two things have to happen. The family has to go into debt to just support a family of four, or...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
The wife has to go into the workforce, which then means the kid has to go to daycare. And if you have to do daycare, that's obviously necessary for a lot of people. But it's not ideal for many families. Many moms would prefer to be with their kids when they're 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 years old. They would prefer to be stay-at-home moms during those formative years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Free trade absolutism has hurt our nuclear families. It has weakened our communities. So we have one shot to do this. We have one shot. And there is going to be a hardware renaissance the same way that we have seen a software renaissance. Advanced robotics and advanced manufacturing is going to be the new economic growth curve. Where are these tools of the future going to be built?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
The hardware renaissance to build the rockets and the potential flying cars and the autonomous vehicles. President Trump understands that there is this window. There is this momentary window where we can finally rebalance and course correct the mistakes of the last 40 or 50 years. And you can only do that while you are still the incumbent economic player.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
And as that window is starting to close, President Trump is trying to run right through it. And that is what he means by Liberation Day. Germany does not allow us to sell Ford vehicles in Germany without ridiculous tariffs. So why is it that we should allow the importation of VWs and Mercedes-Benz and BMWs? Japan is the same. Why should we allow the importation of Toyota and Honda?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
South Korea the same. Why should we allow Hyundai to have... themselves dump their products into the United States. So what is about to ensue is, ladies and gentlemen, there is turbulence ahead. There will be some bumps coming. But on the other side of this bumps is a recalibration of how we finance our government and how our economy is structured.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Because if we do nothing and we continue to engage in the cheap money spigot brought to you by unfettered free trade policies, we will have no
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
manufacturing base we'll be nothing but a consumerist economy where we are just a colony that buys stuff no a country is definitionally strong based on whether or not you make stuff in your nation and if you don't you're no longer a country you're simply a colony that barters goods It is a geopolitical restructuring on our terms.

I thought it was a little longer than that, but it's still very powerful. And that's exactly right. The president of the UAW understands that all of the parts associated with making a vehicle...

This was played on Jesse Waters' show, and I have to give the Jesse Waters production team a lot of credit. This is a phenomenal poll. This video has been memory-holed. This is a video before I was born in 1992 of a frontline report in Allentown, Johnstown, Pennsylvania. where they were talking about one of these 60,000 factories that were closed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Listen to this frontline news report and then multiply this by 60,000. We just handed China... global superpower status. What we did throughout all of this is we handed China global superpower status. Here, China, go become our greatest enemy. Why? Because we want cheaper plastic and trinkets, and the Wall Street class wants to be able to go make an extra couple hundred million bucks.

It used to be where you were able to build an automobile, a computer, a skyscraper, an ocean liner, a fighter jet entirely with parts manufactured in the United States. The era where you could do that was the apex of American success and power. Now, the country that can build all those things on its own is China. Is it any surprise that they're now our number one rival and probably our enemy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Tariff Agenda: Make America Make Again
Is it any surprise it looks like they are winning? When you make things, you learn how to design them. When you stop making them, you forget. The brain power, the design power, the skills, the ability to fix things, build things, poof, all gone, vanished. And President Trump is now maximizing this opportunity we'll never get again.

Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
What's going on in the ground? And I mean, Twitter went ablaze. You pray and you hope for the best in situations like this. And just so happens, we were up very late last night. We saw over the Potomac the entire emergency response of what happened at Reagan National Airport. Being that close to it makes it even starker and more dramatic. Last night, here's what we know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
We're not going to speculate. We're not going to guess. We're just going to tell you the facts. Last evening, a flight from Wichita, Kansas, in a CRJ-700 collided with an Army helicopter. It was a clear night. There was not a cloud in the sky. It was perfect flying conditions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
The CRJ-700, as pictured right there, seemed to intersect with the Army helicopter at the exact, precise, and right moment. From there, the plane seemed to spiral downward into the Potomac as it was on its final approach. We believe the helicopter had a similar fate. We haven't heard much about the helicopter, who was flying, and what was going on in that situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
And from that moment, the first responders worked all night. And Sean Duffy, who is the Secretary of Transportation, was... sworn in hours beforehand, and boy, trial by fire, he's been doing a great job. Very proud of Sean Duffy. About five hours on the job, he gets thrown into what is looking like one of the deadliest plane crashes in a generation. You can see there an infographic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
Our hotel room was just right up there, so we were witnessing some of the response from The Army helicopter was doing a training exercise with three soldiers on board. The CRJ 700, the American Airlines flight, was on a approach on a shorter runway in Reagan. Now, this is personal for a lot of us on the team and a lot of us in the audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
I've landed in Reagan probably 200 times over the last 12 years. I've been a passenger in this approach. Reagan Airport has a very, very tightly controlled airspace. And we're not going to spend time speculating because it's not helpful for anybody. This is one of the shortest runways in the country and in the nation. Reagan is very, very close to downtown Washington.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
It's kind of just fit right there on the Potomac. The plane goes down, and rescue efforts were attempted all evening. And tragically, around 4 a.m. Eastern, it transitioned from a rescue effort to a recovery effort. Now, we do not know how many passengers were on board, but rough estimates are showing that 60 to 65 people likely died in this plane crash. The first big U.S. plane crash since 2009.

Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
It's how the disaster unfolded over the Potomac. Very, very important. And at least this is what we know as of right now. That air traffic control was actually trying to alert the Blackhawk helicopter pilot. So it seems as if the Blackhawk helicopter pilot was coming from the north going south down the Potomac.

The American Airlines flight was coming from the southeast going west on their intended route to land at Reagan National. So this is a sequence in about eight steps. The American Airlines flight 5342 makes its final approach for a night landing at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport with 64 people on board. The U.S.

Army Black Hawk helicopter carrying three soldiers flies through the airspace on a training exercise. The Black Hawk helicopter received a radio call from air traffic control, so ATC did their job, allegedly. We'll find out more. This is all according to the current public reports. saying, quote, do you have a CRJ in sight? Pass behind the CRJ.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
Now, this is where it gets confusing, and I'm sure we'll end up getting an answer. I sure hope so. Very perplexing. It is a clear night. You have a helicopter on a training exercise, knowing that they're going to fly by one of the busiest airports on the planet where they fly approaches over the Potomac. You then hear an audible warning from air traffic control. Do you have a CRJ in sight?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
Pass behind the CRJ. At that moment, the Blackhawk helicopter very well could have diverted, changed altitudes. You see, a helicopter is actually in many ways more nimble than an airplane. It's able to ascend vertically within seconds. We don't really know what happened after that, why the pilot did not recognize that warning, why it did not internalize that warning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
Moments after, the jet collided with the helicopter at an altitude of 400 feet while traveling at a speed of 140 miles per hour. Now, people who know what they're talking about are speculating this must have been like a direct collision. because potentially a CRJ still could have maybe made the landing at 400 feet.

Footage shows a violent fireball erupting above busy roads as the passenger jet banked hard to the right. The wreckage of both the aircraft plunge into the Potomac River a few hundred meters from the Ronald Reagan Airport. And that is what we know right now.

President Donald Trump wrote this in the wee hours of the morning, quote, the airplane was on a perfect and routine line of approach to the airport. The helicopter was going straight at the airplane for an extended period of time. It is a, quote, in all caps, clear night. The lights on the plane were blazing. Why didn't the helicopter go up or down or turn?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Disaster Over the Potomac — What We Know
Why didn't the control tower tell the helicopter what to do instead of asking if they saw the plane? This is a bad situation that looks like it should have been prevented. All caps, not good. Sean Duffy has confirmed, based on what he has seen so far, this looks to be a preventable tragedy. I'm going to save any commentary regarding this for another time.

This is not the first time that we've had turning point leaders be assaulted, concussed, firebombed, bear sprayed. It is a very common tactic that they use. First, I have to ask, are you OK after this madman assaulted you in the head with a bike lock?

Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
This person is named Liam Tom Tom Nguyen, a male Vietnamese name. Put this up on screen. This is the individual that did this who is trans. Of course, the media will completely ignore this. Could you imagine the opposite? Could you imagine if a conservative went and assaulted a trans group on campus? It would be international news. And so Paige, talk about how your chapter is responding to this.

Doubling down is a scary proposition for him. Watch out. We're talking about J.B. Pritzker, of course, the governor of Illinois. Joining us now is William Kelly from reporterwilliamjkelly.com.

So, Paige, talk more broadly about what you are seeing. Polls are showing that young people are going to the right. In fact, I want to play a piece of tape here. We've played part of this conversation throughout the week, which I think is very important. So the New York Times Ezra Klein conversation. I want to play cut 75.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And I want to ask you if you're seeing similar trends on the ground with the advocacy that you're doing. Play cut 75, please.

Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Are you seeing similar trends on the ground, especially with younger men?

Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Well, and hold on. This is in Texas, everybody. This is not Massachusetts. So this is someone who's afraid to go to a conservative event in Dallas, Texas, in a red state. So that's remarkable. Talk more broadly about your school, the classes that you have to take. Are professors, are they treating you fairly because you're part of Turning Point USA? Do you feel you're graded differently?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
What is your advice to other turning point chapter leaders or other young conservatives across the country that feel scared, that feel afraid, that are not sure if they want to speak out because they might get hit in the head with a bike lock?

Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?

We have to have more women involved in the conservative movement. It can't just be all men. Yes. So, Paige, God bless you. Thank you. We look forward to seeing you at the Young Women's Leadership Summit. And I want everyone to internalize this. You guys are looking for hope on the horizon. Some of you guys are retired. This next generation, they are taking bike locks on the head.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
They're scorn, condemnation, isolation. They are out there fighting for your country every single day. And by the way, can we just defund University of Texas Dallas? Why is it that these schools are still receiving any money? That's a separate issue. Paige, thank you so much.

It's one of those articles where I just chuckled. I said, oh, really? Interesting. You're telling me for the first time. I wrote a book a couple summers ago called The College Scam. It's one of the books I'm most proud of.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
It was a clear indictment of the college cabal. It did not win me a lot of friends. I remember I would get in debates with very wealthy people in Jackson Hole. Oh, I remember a spicy conversation in Jackson Hole. A debate in Palm Beach of older boomer Americans. College is wonderful and everyone should go to it. All that matters is the cost of college.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
We just have to bring down the cost because the most important thing is to get a four-year degree. And I wrote in the college scam that, no, this is one of the greatest scams happening in America. I see it firsthand, and I will be proven right. Fortune magazine publishes yesterday. This is the first of thousands of these articles. And this is a major, I told you so.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
William, what are we to make of Mr. Pritzker here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Over 4 million Gen Zers are jobless and experts blame colleges for worthless degrees and a system of broken promises for the rise of NEETs. NEETs are neither employed or getting technical training. So according to Fortune magazine, one in every five adult members of Gen Z are neither employed, educated, or training. People are not in the job market and they're not going to school.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
They just do nothing. They live with their parents. They draw welfare. They play video games. They exist. It's not fun. In fact, it's a miserable existence. Living without direction and just waiting for death. Now, why are so many of them doing nothing? Because for decades, we drove them to take out debt for useless degrees in irrelevant fields. We shut down schools during COVID.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
By the way, almost none of these kids are being prepared for the fact they're going to lose their jobs in about a decade to artificial intelligence. There will be a major job displacement problem. And yet these kids are going hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loan debt. For what exactly? What are they studying for? And it turns out employers don't want to hire them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
They have useless degrees. They have no skills. And they don't use that degree that they went to college even in the workforce. Fortune magazine continues to say this is my favorite part. I wonder who's been saying this. In many cases, young people have been sent off to universities for worthless degrees, which have produced nothing at all.

Peter Hitchens said, political commentator, journalist, and author, quote, now listen carefully, and they would be much better off if they apprenticed to become plumbers or electricians. They would be able to look forward to a much more abundant and satisfying life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
But the reason that they don't want to become plumbers or electricians is that most parents would be ashamed to tell their neighbors that their kid has become a plumber. Most suburban moms would be horrified to have to tell their girl gang, their book club, oh yeah, Johnny is a plumber. No, no, no. It's much easier to say that Johnny is trying to find himself.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
It's much easier to say to your girl gang of moms in your walking group, Oh, no, no. Johnny is not an electrician. Johnny is doing his crypto thing. Oh, I totally understand. Johnny has mental health problems. I totally get it. There's really only five acceptable careers for upper middle class white society. Doctor, lawyer, computer engineer, banker, teacher.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Those are about the five things that are allowed in upper middle class white society. But if you dare say, my son is an electrician, people say, he has to work with his hands? You're a failure as a parent. And I've tested this many times. When I was in Aspen once giving a speech, I said, I'm going to test. I said, how many of you guys would be happy if your son became an electrician?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
They laughed audibly. I said, you guys are the problem. I have no problem standing up to the elites. That's no problem. I said, you guys are all the problem. And they kind of chuckled and they looked down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
I said, you guys would rather have your kid be a wanderer from Portland to Seattle, finding himself working for some sort of microbrewery trading crypto than having to tell your friends that he's an electrician. Because that's unseemly for upper middle class white society. The insecurity of parents has driven an entire generation to despair and a directionless life.

Well, I mean, that's possible, of course. I am curious what he would run on in a general election, the destruction of one of the greatest states, once greatest states in the country. So he certainly has ambition. What would he even say is his greatest accomplishment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
And so just to be clear, J.B. Pritzker is a tyrant himself. He locked down the entire state of Illinois, preventing people from even to go on their boat in Lake County, where they said there's only two people allowed per boat. My wife, Erica, jokes around. She says if J.B. Pritzker runs for president, she says that will be the most personal race ever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
I mean, I will be very invested in this because I have such contempt for the slob that is J.B. Pritzker. Now, it's very funny. He says, well, if you bring your kids to gay parades, they can end up governor. They could also end up like this. Put up to 88. This is J.B. Pritzker's brother, otherwise known as Jennifer, who is a trans activist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
So it turns out that if you bring your kids to gay pride parades, they might end up trans. Jennifer, who is very, very wealthy and obviously deeply disturbed. But William, all kidding aside, Illinois is a failed project. It's a sad husk of its former self. That he really has the wherewithal or the ambition to run after what he's done to the great state of Illinois.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Let's put this up on screen. You look here at the people who want to become president on the Democrat side. You've got Tim Walz. You have J.B. Pritzker. You have Gavin Newsom. They're all losing population. In fact, this is the projected congressional reappropriate apportionment coming into 2030. California is on pace to lose four congressional seats. Arizona gained one. Texas gained four.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Florida gained four. Illinois lose one. Wisconsin lose one. Minnesota lose one. New York lose two. I mean, this is a major symbol of failure.

Great supporters of this program. Why are we financing with taxpayer money, National Public Radio and PBS? NPR is a racket.

I said, no, actually, it's very smart. If you're going to cut the funding, you had an opportunity to show. You had a hearing about it. It's very smart. I liked it. Here's one piece of tape. This is beautiful. Here is Gill's who's the NPR CEO, saying, do you think white people should pay reparations? This is wonderful. Play cut 253.

Brandon is great, by the way. He's becoming a rock star. He's married to Dinesh D'Souza's daughter. We supported him in the primary. Bizarre way to frame what she tweeted is a good way to put it.

She's a dark person. I know her type. She is very similar to Gavin Newsom. She could just lie with ease. She could pass a lie detector test. You could just tell. She's so slippery. That's really dark stuff. There's no remorse. Well, I regret tweeting it, and I don't. It's so rehearsed. Watch out. You know what she's like? She's like Gone Girl. That's what she's like.

Will Dems Run On "The Gay Agenda" in 2028?
Are they going to pretend to be a moderate like Gavin Newsom, when in reality he's a radical failed governor of California? Or are they going to try to be based? It's not really a term you hear much from the left. Are they going to double and triple down?

Hey everybody, this is a very important episode that reveals the fault line behind the signal chat. People are saying this is one of the most important shows out there right now. I really encourage you to listen to it. I think you're going to learn a lot. Email me as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. This reveals why all of a sudden the knives are out for Pete Hegseth.

They would love to undo that vote however they can. but they were too cowardly to do it in public because they knew in this audience, you guys would not put up with it. These are cowards. The same people that did this Jewish insider piece this morning where they say, well, all seven of us disapprove of JD Vance's approach in the private group chat. None of them are willing to go on the record.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
So now they're anonymously trying to go after J.D. Vance. But not any one of them are going after Ratcliffe or Mike Waltz. What is going on here? We know exactly what's going on here. This is a fault line of a worldview in the Republican Party. That's all this is. What you are seeing is the bubbling up of something that's been below the surface for quite a while.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
It is my preference to go talk about other issues that are occurring right now. There's a lot of good things happening. Our southern border is secure. Governor Kristi Noem is going and she's visiting El Salvadorian prisons. But this is a very, very important story. And let me tell you why. Because it is revealing a fault line of actually what divides the Republican Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
And we hoped that it wouldn't have to come to this. But the neoconservatives are forcing the hand of the actual base of the Republican Party. And it's a red line. It is a hard, bright red line that you're not going to get after Pete. And by the way, if we're going after anybody, then we deserve answers from Alex Wong and Michael Waltz. How did Jeffrey Goldberg end up in this group chat?

You want an investigation? I don't think you're going to like that investigation. We see it all the time when I visit college campuses.

Well, look, as you know, I have a special disdain for neoconservatives who pretend to be America first to their voters. If you want to go be a neoconservative, happy-go-lucky, invade Iran, colonize Venezuela, and go bomb every country that you can't pronounce, at least tell your voters that's who you are. Don't go send mailers and say, oh, I'm America first.

Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
The Republican Party is not divided based on domestic policy. We're actually largely in agreement. We want low taxes. We want economic freedom, even deportations. You're not going to find a lot of fight amongst rank and file Republican senators about this. Instead, the fault line, the dividing line in the Republican Party is foreign policy. It is foreign policy.

So I just I'm going to ask a provocative question. Do they really care that much about winning or is it more just about the graph than making money? And if they happen to win, then it's a nice little bonus.

It's whether or not you want to continue the great American empire. If you want to invade more sovereign countries, if you believe the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war were a success or a mistake. The J.D. Vance America first force that President Trump has been pushing forward, the President Trump J.D. Vance force, I should say, is one of America first, not America only, but America first.

So so, Cliff, here's the good news. The good news is that we know it can work in a general election. You did it. We helped a little bit, but you were the pioneer.

There is a new story breaking today that Elise Stefanik might not end up resigning to become U.N. ambassador because it might put the margins a little bit in jeopardy.

where the other side of the Republican Party is America everywhere, all the time, regardless of the cost, the consequences, or the issues that we might intentionally or unintentionally make happen.

You have the America First patriots. And they are trying to use this as an opportunity, the neoconservatives on Capitol Hill, the neoconservatives within our deep state of government, to remove... the good guys in our administration. So you have two teams here. I'm going to break it through. No one else is making this analysis right now because I happen to be in the weeds on this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
As we've said many times on this program, the last 100 years, the power in America has largely concentrated in unelected bureaucracy and unelected judiciary. We can look to other countries to see. Where this goes, right now in the country of Brazil, there is a shocking and a horrifying development happening. Remember, back in 2022, Bolsonaro lost by a razor-thin margin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
As you might remember, he won every part of the country, except the poorest, the most crime-ridden, and the most corrupt corner of the country, the Northeast, where left-wing candidate Lula da Silva lost. One, there was a ton of agitation. They had their own January 6th like moment where they rallied in support of Bolsonaro and it went way too far.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
And ever since then, there's been a gigantic Joe Biden style lawfare crackdown. Judges in Brazil have exerted far more power than even in the United States. Judges and counties' attorneys general equivalent have imposed sweeping speech controls on X and other speech platforms. Now, Bolsonaro is going to be put on trial for supposedly plotting a coup.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
President Lula said today that it's Bolsonaro's duty to, quote, prove his innocence. It's not innocent until proven guilty. It's guilty until proven innocent. This is in a country of Brazil that we allegedly call an ally. If Russia were to do this, we would sanction them. If Brazil does it, why are we putting up with it? And the answer is we shouldn't. The U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
State Department, Marco Rubio, and President Trump should issue tariffs and, if necessary, sanctions on Brazil for this kind of reckless, immoral behavior. But even more than that, this is a warning sign. This is what judicial despotism looks like. This is the type of behavior that should have no place in the Western world. modern world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
They are going to try to put Bolsonaro in prison to have him die in jail as a martyr. The left believes in democracy, allegedly. But do you know what they mean by democracy? They think democracy is judges making themselves dictators. The judge is an avatar of democracy. They don't believe in voting. They don't believe in the will of the people. They don't believe in the sovereign.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Democracy for a left-winger isn't elections or rights or constitutions. It's just being a liberal. It is a judicial oligarchy. These are all warnings to us as we now have judge after judge stopping President Trump from doing what he wants to do. We can look to Brazil and Israel to a lesser extent to see how the will of the sovereign is undermined on a daily basis.

I'm telling you exactly what's occurring. Number one, there is a coordinated hit. There is a concerted attack. There is a collaborative strike against Pete Hegseth. Front page of the Wall Street Journal. Hegseth faces rising scrutiny over security breach on chat. Front page of the New York Times right here. Leaked Signal Chat. Excerpts from the Signal Chat published Wednesday.

And praise the Lord, because when we dodged that bullet as a civilization on July 13th, this is where we were headed under a Kamala Harris presidency. so so you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
It's all about Pete Hegseth. Now understand, whose job is it to make sure that established order is followed in military communications? First and foremost, it's actually the National Security Advisor's job. It is Mike Waltz and his team to even say, hey, Pete, we should not be having this conversation here. Who set up the chat? Did Pete Hegseth set up the group chat? No, no, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Mike Waltz and Alex Wong set up the group chat, not Pete Hegseth. Pete Hegseth merely participated in it. Should he have done that? Maybe, maybe not. Signals an approved device, said it wasn't classified information. But what you're seeing all of a sudden as a response – is someone who is not responsible for this under any fair analysis is getting all of the media scrutiny.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
It's a coordinated attack on our friend of this program, Pete Hegseth, and we are not going to put up with this. They are trying to, they being the neoconservatives on Capitol Hill, I'm going to tell you who they are name by name, to now go remove Pete Hegseth. And remember how hard we had to fight to get Pete Hegseth across the finish line? We had the whole Joni Ernst situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Mitch McConnell voted against him. We had to go to 50 votes, and J.D. Vance had to break the tie, and they are now trying to remove Pete Hegseth because Pete Hegseth is not a warmonger. What bothered them the most about the Signal chat is not the fact that they were using Signal to discuss quote-unquote attack plans or war plans. What bothered them is Pete Hegseth and J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Vance are simpatico in a prudent use of American force and a cautious use a foreign policy perspective, not a belligerent one, not a aggressive one, not a George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, John Bolton view of American foreign policy that gave us the failures over the last 20, 30 years. What bothered the people on Capitol Hill is the fact that J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Vance and Pete Hegseth have a much more nuanced worldview to put America and Americans first. So the hit is underway against Pete Hegseth, but it's not just Pete Hegseth. Also, there was an article this morning in the Jewish Insider citing seven U.S. senators attacking J.D. Vance for what he was saying in the group chat this morning. And those seven U.S. senators were all anonymous. The seven U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
senators refused to even go on the record. This is revealing the fault line of the actual divide in the Republican Party. And it is foreign policy. You know who else shares Cheney and George W. Bush views? It's Jeffrey Goldberg. He was a fake news hack used to stoke the Iraq war. Coincidence? Maybe. So what's really going on here is a fight for the soul of our Republican Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
It's not about signal group chats. It's not about security. It's not about any of that hocus pocus stuff. It's not about Roger Wicker, who's sending this ridiculous letter from Mississippi saying, well, we need to have a Department of Defense IG investigation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Do you notice that none of them on Capitol Hill from Tom Cotton to Roger Wicker are drawing any fire on the person that actually created this group chat or his lieutenant, Alex Wong? Do you notice that they're not criticizing Mike Waltz at all? That they're not going after Alex Wong, his deputy, who's the one that was responsible for putting this all together?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
No, instead, out of nowhere, it's Pete Hegseth's fault? What is that all about? It's because they want to remove Pete Hegseth. regardless of this entire situation. Oh, and it gets even richer than this. So Alex Wong is the deputy national security advisor under Mike Waltz.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Alex Wong, discovered by Laura Loomer, his wife, Candace Chu Wong, worked under the Obama administration and the Biden administration as an assistant U.S. attorney in the U.S. attorney's office. Oh, she was involved in the prosecution of many January Sixers. This guy is married to someone that was locking up our patriots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Mike Waltz, according to reporting that I've heard, Mike Waltz still has a ton of Biden holdovers in the Trump National Security Office. A ton. People that have donated to Kamala Harris, they're still working in the National Security Agency right now in the Trump White House. Mike Waltz has defended them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
So why is it that Pete Hegseth gets all the criticism, but Mike Waltz and Alex Wong are just kind of skating by? They're not on the front page of the New York Times. They're not on the front page of the Wall Street Journal. It's a little bizarre, isn't it? It's because Waltz can be replaced easily. It's barely a win. And also, Mike Waltz is friends with all of these neoconservatives.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
Let me show it to you. Out of nowhere, Tom Cotton, the chief warmonger on Capitol Hill, the head of the Senate Intel Committee, tweets out this morning a defense of Alex Wong. Remember, Tom Cotton has been behind trying to stop Elbridge Colby. Tom Cotton was the one that was pushing against Tulsi Gabbard. and they're back for revenge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
The military-industrial complex via the neoconservatives on the Senate Hill are back for revenge against our America First movement, and they're all after Pete Hegseth. This simultaneous strike against Pete Hegseth is not a mistake. It is a coordinated plan. It is a unified, synchronized attack. It is orchestrated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
So Tom Cotton tweets out this morning, and no one asked Tom Cotton his opinion on this. Alex Wong and his wife Candace are complete and total patriots. Oh, so Tom Cotton thinks Candace is a total patriot even though she was the one that was locking up January 6th protesters. Really, Tom Cotton? 100% MAGA warriors who always put America first. That's quite a statement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
For three years, Alex worked hard for me until President Trump smartly hired him away. Oh, he worked for you to go try to have war plans against every sovereign country that we shouldn't invade. Interesting. Remember, Tom Cotton is like the chief cheerleader to send more money to Ukraine. Number one. America is safer and better off with Alex in the White House. Thank you for your service, Alex.

Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
What a weird flex, Tom Cotton. We didn't ask you for your opinions on Alex Wong. And do you think this actually helps the case? The fact you're defending Alex Wong makes us very suspicious because you are Chief Warmonger USA. You are number one. You are the new Dick Cheney of the Republican Party. It's obvious. We see it. We know it. The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
And let me tell you right now, our movement will awaken from its slumber if you dare lay a hand on Pete Hegseth or the America First Patriots that are in this cabinet to try to defend Alex Wong and the warmonger cabal that you guys want to keep on having in this administration. We would have been happy to move on from this story. I didn't want to talk about the Signal story. I'm sick of it.

Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
It's over, whatever. You made a mistake. But all of a sudden, I wake up to both the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, and we have Pete Hegseth receiving all this fire, and we got Roger Wicker sending, oh, we need a DOD, independent investigator investigation. No, no, no. We see what's happening here. This is an op. This is an op where you are trying to take out a big, big scalp.

That's right, the National Review are all saying that Pete Hegseth should be fired or resign. So let's put this one up. Let's start with the National Review because they pretend to be on the right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
So they put this up, the National Review. Trump should fire Pete Hegseth. That's weird. Did you say we should fire Mike Waltz or Alex Wong, the person who brought Jeffrey Goldberg into the chat? The person who created this? Oh, but no, Pete Hegseth, really? Oh, you mean you wanted to get rid of Pete anyway, even though Pete had nothing to do with this controversy? Nothing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
And then Senator Mark Kelly's coming out, and then the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, they're beating this drum all about Hegseth. And this should be a little disorienting to you because it has nothing to do with Pete Hegseth. There were 17 or 18 people on this chat John Ratcliffe was on the chat. Stephen Miller was on the chat.

Maybe there's something else going on here. Maybe the Roger Wickers and the Tom Cottons don't care for Pete very much. Are they defending him?

I'm not saying that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
But I'm saying if all of a sudden you're going to bizarrely pick one out of the 18 Pete Hegseth, explain yourself exactly. Why is it that you're picking Pete? It's because you don't want Pete to be in charge of the U.S. military because he's doing stuff you don't like. He's de-wokifying it. He's challenging government contracts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
He's pushing back against the hyper-aggressive posture in Russia and Ukraine. If anyone should resign, maybe it's the people that created the group chat and invited Jeffrey Goldberg. Pete Hegseth did not invite Jeffrey Goldberg. At the most, you could say Pete Hegseth should not have been participating in the group chat. Fine. He's new on the job. It's a government-approved device.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
It's a government-approved messaging platform. That is a completely different threshold of the person who invited the editor and the chief of The Atlantic. And are any of them being going to be held accountable? Or all of a sudden we have to now be hypnotized to believe that Pete Hegseth is the problem. Now look, let me tell you this. President Trump is awesome.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
The chances of anything happening to Pete Hegseth is very little. That's not the point. The point is who's calling for it. Roger Wicker this morning, we should put this up. Roger Wicker sent out a letter trying to now tie up Pete Hegseth. Why do we need Democrats? If we have Republicans like this.

Why Some Republicans Want To Betray Hegseth
This morning, Roger Wicker sent a letter to the Department of Defense Inspector General demanding the IG to now go investigate Pete Hegseth. Hmm. That's interesting. So they write a letter.

That's strange, Hakeem. Did you not call for the resignation of Mike Waltz? Why not? Because he's not a threat to you guys. Because he might be leaking to the Atlantic. We don't know. Maybe Mike Waltz is back channeling to all you guys. I don't know. But Pete Hegseth certainly isn't. Republicans got strong armed into approving the nomination of Pete Hegseth.

Hey, everybody. We explore more of this idea of the Signal Group Chat. Is Mike Waltz telling the truth or not? I want to hear from you. Freedom at CharlieKirk.com. Also, subscribe to our podcast.

Sean, welcome to the program. Sean, what is your take on this entire Signal chat story? I use Signal a lot. You've used Signal a lot. Something here does not add up. Either Mike Waltz is totally lying or Signal was compromised by the CIA. One or the other. Which is it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
Caroline Levitt is taking questions live from the briefing room. We can listen to that if we'd like. However, let's see if it kind of escalates. We have Sean Spicer. Sean, I'm sure you saw some of the dialogue there. Your reaction, did we learn anything from Caroline Levitt's back and forth there?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I try to tend to look at the Occam's razor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
Well, that's exactly right. And so I hate dwelling on this story too much, but it's only getting bigger and bigger. And to be perfectly honest with you, Mike Waltz, who I've always gotten along with and I respect, made it bigger by going on Laura Ingram last night. By the outright denials and saying, we have a tech team looking into this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I'll be honest, Sean, if you want my personal opinion, I think he just messed up and added him by mistake. I don't think the CIA has a backdoor to signal. I don't think that there's some sort of clandestine thing. It's possible, but you're moving too fast. You're doing too much stuff. I would have preferred just, oh my goodness, this is so embarrassing. We're moving too fast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
We're doing too much stuff. And I get it. Yeah, the president wouldn't be happy with that. But I think the president's going to be 10 times angrier if he finds out that this has been some rigmarole and trying to have some tech team and we're going to have some sort of investigation. When in reality, you press JG and you meant Jameson Greer and it actually ended up Jeffrey Goldberg.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
But then it's like, wait a second. Why is that guy in your phone?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
And you've got to give the Atlantic a a little bit of credit in a really dark way. They're using the Andrew Breitbart model, which is you don't release everything you have all at once. You do you do a drip. You do a first.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I think that's right. And you are correct. The story dies if you don't give it new oxygen. Mike Waltz going on Laura Ingram, that gives it oxygen. And then the second and third drip of the text messages give it oxygen. Sean, please plug your show or anything else you'd like our audience to be aware of.

History, economics, the great works of literature. Did you study these things in school? Probably not. Or even if you did, maybe it's time for an enjoyable refresher. Hillsdale College is offering more than 40 free online courses, including their newest course on totalitarian novels.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
In this free eight-lecture course, you'll learn from Hillsdale College president Larry Arnn as he goes in depth on four novels, 1984, Brave New World, Darkness at Noon, and That Hideous Strength. I love all four. Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature.

More importantly, they can show us that faith, family, and friends are worth fighting for. Maybe you read these books a long time ago in school.

There's no cost, and it's easy to get started. That is charlieforhillsdale.com, C-H-A-R-L-I-E forhillsdale.com.

Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
So, Connor, I want to use the lead-in of the flop, the multi-hundred-million-dollar flop that is Snow White. Disney decided to resurrect Snow White and spend a lot of money. It had a terrible showing this last weekend. It turns out that millions of families do not want a repurposed, let's just say modern take.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
You could say it's woke, but it certainly is a it's with the flair of the worst of modernity of a beautiful story that existed well over 100 years ago. You at the Tuttle Twins, you are the author and you are the brainchild of the Tuttle Twins, are having a lot of success getting down to fundamental truths and speaking in a way to families that appeals to them. Tell us more about the Tuttle Twins.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
And the popularity of it is growing right now. Everyone can check it out at TuttleTwins.com slash Charlie. I'm going to buy a bunch of these for my kids. Finding good kids' books is very, very hard. In fact, we went to Barnes & Noble recently, and our daughter just loves buying all the books. And it's very funny. She has great instincts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
She went up to one of the books and it was like a homosexual couple. And she looked at it. She said, that's not right. And she put it back down. It was like kind of like we want you to be gay or some. And this is a kid's book. I mean, again, everyone in the audience kind of your own views of marriage. But for a kid to have to be forced upon her, her intuition is amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
And so talk about how you are incorporating these beautiful ideas, liberty, family friendly, non let's just say pornographic elements in a way that kids actually want to read it. This is not a textbook. This is not just giving them Milton Friedman's capitalism and freedom, but it is those ideas distilled in a digestible way for a child.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
And over six million copies sold. Just talk about what you are the author of the Tuttle Twins. How did you conceptualize all of this? There are so many different, let's just say, sister or cousin equivalents, the Hardy Boys. I mean, typical ideas of, you know, duos that go about life and this kind of adventure. How did you bring this from idea into reality?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
So let's go through just an onslaught of the type of books that kids have to experience. For example, there's this one, Shay Ra and the Princess of Power. This one is, quote, why we love it. This is a Netflix series. It's not a book. It's a Netflix series. It's a cartoon. By the way, conservative parents are unknowingly allowing their kids to watch this stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
This goes through the family filter because sometimes they'll say this is just a kid's account. Has there ever been a gayer, more inclusive cartoon than She-Ra and the Princesses of Power? The series was created by trans artist N.D. Stevenson, and it shows. The show explores queer love, queer struggle, and the ultimate queer joy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
Adora and Katra share one of the most epic love stories set to screen, and they're surrounded by a literal rainbow of compelling, unapologetically queer and trans characters. We only wish there were more seasons. The list continues. There's multiple series like this. I guess Spongebob is now gay, apparently, according to this list. Is this like the gayest list? Is that what we're looking at here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
55 total shows. SpongeBob, the misadventures of the talking sea sponge, works at a fast food restaurant. Why we love it, quote, SpongeBob has always been gay in our hearts. I mean, he, Patrick, and their little kiddo, Gary, are pretty much queer fam goals. Then in 2020, SpongeBob came out of the sea closet and is now canonically queer, available on Prime, which many parents allow them to watch.

Right, and so other than that or something even more nefarious happened, like the intel agencies hacked this group chat, which is a very low probability. But let's just play some of the statements from Mike Waltz, his denials. I mean, outright denials saying that Waltz claims that Stafford did not put his contact in. Let's play cut 232.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I mean, I'm sorry, Sean, getting sucked in. I use Signal all the time. I have no idea what he's talking about here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
Right. And so the other thing about Signal, if you and I were to talk on Signal a lot, Sean, and then I went to go create a new message and I put S in, the people you contact the most are elevated actually in the suggested and recommended the next contacts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
So in order for this to be true, somebody who added Jeffrey Goldberg, which Mike Waltz admitted he is the admin and he is the creator of the group, he must have had established contact with Jeffrey Goldberg. Had to have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
But here's the issue is that this wouldn't have been a scandal, whatever. It's not a scam if all of a sudden Mike Waltzman like, look, we are moving too fast. I have all these old contacts, my congressional days, and I meant to add Jameson Greer and I added Jeffrey Goldberg. This is unbelievably embarrassing and humiliating. In the tech world, we all have this happen. I'm so sorry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I take full responsibility. But now Mike Waltz is making us speculate one of two things. Either he's a pathological liar, which I really don't want to believe. That's the option one. Or number two, is that signal is compromised and that our own intel agencies created a backdoor to be able to look at private government chats? We are literally in a binary. There is no there is no in between.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I have a phone number. I'm not going to add Gavin Newsom to our show group chat. OK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
I'm not saying Mike Waltz is lying. I'm saying that what the binary has been created based on his public – you know, his public statements and his denials is one of two. And the second of which is there's some technical backdoor that the Intel, that is such a high threshold.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
He also said it wasn't my staffer either. So he was denying that as well. And that's where I'm, but, but, but Sean, he's also acting like, well, we have the best technical minds on it. He's alluding that this had a backdoor. It doesn't take a technical mind. You know what I'm saying?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Protecting Your Kids From the Rainbow Mafia
But I mean, it is dishonest, though. And that's what I don't if that if that's correct. At the same time, I mean, it's he's going on. Laura Ingram saying I never talked to him, never had communication. I don't know who he is. I've never had all this. I don't know how this happened. I hope that's I hope it's not correct that the intel agencies have the back door.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
Let's dive into that. Ohio is uniquely geographically positioned. It's in the heartland. Yep. Has access to Lake Erie, the Appalachia, Appalachians, mountains. Amazing oil and natural gas opportunities in certain pockets. Yes. An industrious people, an industrious people, the hardest working people in the country, I believe, are Midwesterners. I say that as a Chicagoan myself.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
Talk about the assets that Ohio has, because far too often in our politics, we talk about the negatives. Ohio has been deindustrialized, opioid addicted. We know that. But it has phenomenal upsides. What are they?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
I believe you're going to win. We're behind you 100 percent endorsement, the whole thing. And I think if anyone dares run against you, it's political suicide, considering President Trump has endorsed you out of the gate. So let's talk about how you get this done. Ohio has turned significantly red, but as you mentioned, not as conservative in practice as it should be.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
You mentioned this briefly. We have two minutes remaining. One of the great challenges for governors and, of course, on the federal level is going to how to incorporate artificial intelligence. Ohio is a unique place because, as you say, it was the advent of the Industrial Revolution. You could argue we are on the precipice of an artificial intelligence revolution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
Now, firstly, I think you guys are uniquely positioned because you have the natural resources, the land, and the geography to have data centers that would employ hundreds of thousands of people. But that's only one part of it. That is the backbone. That's the infrastructure. That is the meat and potatoes of AI, which is important. And I think Ohio will flourish because of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
But what about the application? How could AI— revitalize Hubbard, Ohio? How could AI revitalize Mahoney County, the forgotten counties of Ohio?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
Maybe you are one of the borrowers in America that has a private distressed student loan. If so, listen carefully. Did you know that private student loan debt in America totals about $300 billion? About $45 billion is labeled as distressed. YREFI does not care what your credit score is.
The Charlie Kirk Show

When the payment on your distressed or defaulted private student loan is so big that you can't ever get ahead in your finances, YREFI is surely your best option. WhyRefi can save you thousands of dollars by refinancing and even lower your total cost. WhyRefi refinances distressed and defaulted private student loans, which are different from federal loans.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
This video in particular has already been seen, I think, 10 to 12 million times on TikTok and Instagram combined. It's going super viral. But it was a really interesting window here because when people saw this clip that I'm about to play for you, it connected some dots. I get asked all the time, Charlie, what is the next generation of teachers look like?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
And every single one of you that are sending your kids or grandkids to public schools have a moral obligation to watch this one-minute and 23-second clip. This one-minute clip shows you exactly the type of person that has become a teacher and wants to teach your child. That is teaching your kid.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
When you send your kid to grade school that is publicly funded or government funded, to middle school, high school, or college, they are at risk of being influenced by people like this. You are handing over your children to a pseudo indoctrination state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
You are handing over your most prized possession to a enterprise that believes things that are directly contradictory to your values, that are adverse to your worldview. This is not just a random college student that came up to me. This was at the University of South Florida. This is is a current teacher and also was a candidate for state Senate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
And might I add, sometimes people say, oh, Charlie, you know, you're only debating college kids. First of all, people will no longer say that after next week based on. a certain program that I'm going on. Secondly, no, it's an open mic. Professors have come up before, teacher's assistants. This guy is a former candidate state rep and a current teacher. Anybody is welcome up to the mic. Anybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
Just so happens college kids tend to overwhelm the population. And most college kids are voters. Can we stop acting as if that it's some sort of protected species? They're 18 years old. They can buy a gun. They can vote. Let's stop acting as if that they need to kind of be, oh, you're not allowed to talk to college kids. Oh, only professors can talk to college kids. Got it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
So professors are allowed to talk to college kids, but Charlie Kirk can't talk to college kids. Why am I such a threat talking to college kids? I didn't even go to college. Okay. Listen, drop what you're doing. If you have a kid in public school, I hope you understand that they are likely to have a teacher like this. They are likely to have someone like this influencing their worldview.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
Joining us now is Kristen Wagoner, President, CEO, and General Counsel of Alliance Defending Freedom. Kristen, walk us through what's going on at the University of Memphis, what happened last evening, and the reason that we decided to kind of call the bluff of University of Memphis regarding Kyle Rittenhouse.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
So I want to thank you for proving a great point. You are why we should eliminate the Department of Education. Thank you very much. So a couple things. Normally, I tell the crowd to chill. But him being a teacher and a state representative candidate, and it being such an outrageous thing he was saying, I let him go. And I think for good reason. I wasn't encouraging it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
I wasn't saying, you know, continue. I was just being neutral. I was listening. Because I also wanted to demonstrate on video how much things have changed. Four years ago, if a teacher would have come up and given an explanation, all the kids would have just been listening. Now they have the self-confidence to say, that is complete BS. Stop it. You're a teacher.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Vivek's Vision for Ohio
One of the kids said, you're not getting my hands on my kids. And so typically I want to give everybody the opportunity to speak. And of course he did. He had the mic. But a little bit of that background chatter, a little bit of the clamoring, I think was actually healthy here. I think it made for a better video and a better dialogue. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

Raheem, what is your take on the last couple of hours, the last couple of days of this new Trump administration?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
The immigration raids in particular, I want to talk about the United Kingdom, but it's rather remarkable. Even in the first administration, we did not see this kind of shock and awe, this kind of action. Is that correct, Rahim?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
So there is a story here that you warned about many years ago in the United Kingdom, where now one in 12 people in London is an illegal migrant. You warned about this. I think we have the original tape of when you warned about it, but we will. Let's play 143.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
You predicted it. Raheem, what's going on in the United Kingdom?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
So explain this to me, Raheem. Are there people in the United Kingdom that are looking at America with a fair amount of envy that you wish you could bring it back? What is the vibe within your homeland?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
Some of President Trump's actions are almost hard to process because they're coming in at such a rapid pace, one of which was a full repeal of affirmative action. Raheem, this would have been an unspeakable concept even five years ago when Trump was president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
What changed where now on day two or day one, I can't remember, I think it was day two, that President Trump just got rid of all affirmative action hiring practices in the federal government? What changed?

No, no, no. See, this actually this was actually the correct this was the correct analysis. They knew that if President Trump knew about this before his inaugural, he would have mentioned it in the inaugural and that he would have turned around and been like, shame on you. And it would have been one of the greatest moments in American history. They knew it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
This is where the Biden team said, we have to post this on the website as Trump is taking the stage. And, I mean, you've got to give credit to the Biden team. If you're going to sneak it in, you do it that way. But they were so petrified of a public humiliation, of which it would have been warranted, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
Of which President Trump could have said, listen, I didn't pardon my family when I left office, yet I was a victim of lawfare. And look what this lunatic just did. And like, oh, man, that would have just... That would have honestly been very warranted given the repulsive, disgusting nature of these pardons.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
So in the interest of time here, Garrett, again, there are names here that I have to Google. John T. Owens, he didn't pardon himself, a point that President Trump has astutely now mentioned.

This is such an affront to our traditions, the likes of which there's nothing ever in the history of the republic where preemptive pardons are extraordinarily rare. There are two major instances of preemptive pardons in America, the first of which would be Gerald Ford preemptively pardoning Richard Nixon. The second of which would be the preemptive pardons of Jimmy Carter with draft Dodgers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Biden Pardons His Family of Criminals
Those are the two largest instances of preemptive pardons that we've seen in American history. This is a whole different category. We'll handle the Fauci, the Milley, the J6 committee and the staff tomorrow. But is this the end of criminal exposure and liability for the Biden crime family at the federal level?

Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
But our next guest already knows all of them by heart and can tell you what's really going on here. For the full hour, we have the legendary Roger Stone, and we're going to take our time here and go through what have we learned from the files, what do we know, and the truth about who killed John Fitzgerald Kennedy. With us is Roger Stone. Roger, welcome to the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
So, Roger, just just just in the interest of time, I do have a question, though. So you are close to Richard Nixon. If Richard Nixon believed this, which I'm not doubting your story, why didn't he then go public with it during Watergate or in his post-presidency? Because it very well could have helped him while he was being transitioned into political exile.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
So, Roger, let's now go through the events on the day that JFK was shot. What happened that day specifically that was suspicious, out of the ordinary? And what in the cover-up or the investigation made people believe that there was something here that was less than desirable?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
Well, thank you, Roger. It was a team effort. And thank you for never leaving the president's side and for fighting, fighting, fighting all the way through. So, Roger, let's start with the most immediate news and then we can kind of go back in time. What did we learn from this JFK file dump?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
So let's let's remind the audience, though, the significance of this, because some 20 year old that might be watching the show, Roger, would say that's all terrible. But so what? OK, let's say that there were two shooters. If there was more than one shooter, therefore, that means the government lied about it in the Warren Commission. They actively covered it up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
And therefore, it means definitionally it was a conspiracy. Roger, do you believe in more than one shooter? If so, what do you think happened on the grassy knoll?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
Well, really quick yes or no question, Roger. Didn't his head go missing? His brain very definitely went missing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency. Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
What would you say to someone that still believes that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and any one of us that believes that there's more to the story, that we're just being conspiracy wingnuts? Roger, your response.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Who Really Killed JFK? ft. Roger Stone
People are saying it's one of the best interviews we've ever done. And so make sure you just stop what you are doing, or maybe if you're working out, keep doing that. If you're driving, definitely keep doing that. But listen to this episode, download it, text it, email it, study it. It's really important, and I think you'll love it.

And I mean, that's dark and deep and true stuff. Roger, unfortunately, you have been working on this for decades. I'm sure frustratingly. Do you believe you're making progress, Roger, in informing the American people about the truth of how our government might have the ability to execute its own president?
The Charlie Kirk Show

So let's just stay focused on the. And by the way, I sympathize you 100 percent. I've always subscribed that this hot Oswald thing is nonsense. I think there were more than one shooter, but I want to get into that eventually. But just on the files. I know this is a silly question. Has anyone actually gone through all of them as of our conversation now, Roger? I mean, it's so much.

Public sector teacher unions run by Randy Whitegarten, who might as well be Education El Chapo, has sent tens of millions of kids' lives backwards. And they are an arm of the Democrat Party.

Absolutely. And I am a student of yours, both in person and remotely through the Hillsdale online courses at the Claremont Institute. I loved your course on the Federalist Papers. So there's lots to discuss here. I would love to get your historical take. on injunctions. When did they come about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
How should we think from a constitutional perspective, the very rapid use of nationwide district court injunctions?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
The Department of Education was created in the 1970s under President Jimmy Carter. who separate it from what it was previously called the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Now, I think that is worthy of a little bit of a pause.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
And so it seems as if the growth of this is very disturbing and is compromising Article 2 specified powers. Does a district court judge have any jurisdiction over foreign policy decisions made by a president?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
That means we were able to send a man to the moon, win two world wars, become an industrial superpower, a world superpower, balance our budget, build the world's greatest middle class, have a well-read, well-grounded citizenry without a federal Department of Education. We were able to become the envy of the planet without a centralized bureaucracy called the Department of Education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
So the... And the lower court judges are making these decisions. They seem to have a little bit of an arrogance where they know they're going to probably get slapped down and get it, you know, an angry judgment. But they don't really care. It's that's what's so disappointing is the naked partisanship here is deep down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
I think these district court judges know they're acting improperly, but they but they justify it because Trump is so bad and we have to do what we possibly can. to stop him. Is there any recourse that can be delivered against these rogue decisions?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
And that's so disappointing for the republic and bad for the country. So another big case happening right now is that Trump has fired two members of the FTC, which Democrats are claiming is illegal. Can you explain the case of Humphrey's executor to our listeners?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
How were we able to do that? Well, for most of America, education happened between parent and child, pastor and child, community and child. For most of American history, it was local, local, local, because education is the most personal of all the things. It happens in the soul of an individual. Education is very hard to put 2,000 miles away in a bleak, downtrodden building.

Basically a glorified cabinet file. Our founding framers and our founding fathers were classically educated. They studied the great books. They understood the big ideas of human nature.

They can't tell me what a man is. We went from an education system that would explore eternal truth. One that would challenge children. to go after what is beautiful and what is good. And instead, we gravitated away towards an administrative state model of education.

The Germans, which have a tendency to introduce the worst ideas imaginable, introduced this idea of historicism coupled with historicism, which is an idea that history has an endpoint and we must keep on growing the state to get us closer to that endpoint.

This was largely authored by people such as John Dewey, Woodrow Wilson. They wanted the centralization of education, that no longer should parents be in charge of education, no longer should churches or synagogues or communities, but we need to prepare students to become good worker bees.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
Now, every time I hear a Republican politician say, well, we want our education system to create the best workers of the future, I cringe. That is not what education is about. Education is about creating good citizens. Education is about creating people that are capable of answering life's deeper questions. You see, if you create good citizens, they can do any job that you throw in front of them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
Instead, we entered into the hyper-specialization of American education. You're going to sit in single file lines. No longer would we have dialogue or discussion in the classical form of education. You will be taught science, technology, engineering, and math. You will keep your mouth shut. You will do what you are told is hyper authoritarian.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And over the last hundred years, we have seen the downfall of American education and Jimmy Carter accelerated that trend. Away from the proven model that led us to a superpower and closer towards a Marxist version of how to educate our kids.

Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
Since the creation of the Department of Education, spending on education has gone way up, while American education performance has actually gone down often dramatically. For decades, Republicans have promised rhetorically to get rid of the Department of Education. Reagan said he would. In fact, that'd be fun to get a clip of that. Congressmen have talked about doing it, but nothing has happened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
People assumed that Trump would be the same way, that he would talk about abolishing it, but it wouldn't happen. Oh, it's just a bunch of rhetoric. It's just a bunch of talk. It's just a bunch of jibber jabber. But President Trump is the promise keeper president. He is the promise keeper president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
So today he is signing an executive order, ordering Education Secretary Linda McMahon to do everything possible to make herself the last education secretary. Now, of course, there are some obvious caveats. The department was created by Congress, so it probably can't be completely abolished without Congress.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
But we can do as much as possible to make the department's demise a mere matter of paperwork. Trump has already laid off or furloughed thousands of the department staff. He can relocate the programs we can't get rid of. There's no reason we need a special cabinet department to run Pell grants. We had them before we had an education department.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Another Promise Kept: Abolishing the Department of Education
We can apply the same principle to federal student loans and have the Treasury Department run them. Scott Bessett would do a much better job running anything to do with financial transactions than the department education. Does the Department of Education need its own civil rights office? Why not just have it at the Department of Justice?

And while we're at it, let's have a go after real discrimination that occurs in our schools against white, Asian, and Jewish students. Not just going after fake hate crimes that happen on college campuses. Now, getting rid of the department education also won't cut the budget quite as much as it might seem. The department has a massive, colossal budget of $250 billion.

Most of that is stuff that we can't get rid of for now. Pell grants, student loans, and important stuff like special education funding that we should, of course, keep. It's title one funding for schools. But the principle here is incredibly important. We are getting rid of a department that never should have existed in the first place. Getting rid of this department.

and not caring about the delivering of the education for our kids, you can walk into any local high school. The high school I went to was falling victim to this.

which was all of the extra money that District 214 was receiving, where I grew up, District 214, very well-funded, incredible, unbelievable amounts of money going to schools.

It was very common to have a PE teacher where I went to school earn $145,000 a year. Very common. And I started to see this trend where the more money that Wheeling High School would receive, it wasn't going towards teachers or teacher's assistants. It was going towards a part of the building that I rarely visited. A part of the building that I wasn't really even sure who all these people were.

The name of the school is Allen Shepard Middle School. And so I want to paint a picture for our national audience here. Deerfield, Illinois, is a very sleepy, affluent, upper middle class suburb right near Highland Park. It is in the North Shore. I grew up in Wheeling down the street.

Deerfield has a reputation for people that will pay more to buy a home in district to be able to go to better schools. People move there for the schools.

They do some contracts with SpaceX, but it's only like a couple billion dollars a year.
The Charlie Kirk Show

NASA was totally incapable. They do not have the ability, and did not, to go send up a rocket to go rescue these two stranded astronauts. They simply did not have the ability. Now, under Joe Biden, Joe Biden heard and learned that these astronauts were stranded.

The Trans Pervert Mafia Will Fight To the Bitter End
And his national security team said, well, sir, we are not able to do that at NASA, even though we get $25 billion a year and we have Space Force, which is part of a trillion dollar budget. But there is someone who could rescue them. And Joe Biden's team said, who? They said Elon Musk. And they said no.

Joe Biden could have easily fixed this, but it would have been a win for Musk and a win for America. So Joe Biden said, screw him, leave him up in space. Party first, country last.

I don't want to give him the win. He's not on our team anymore. That's dark stuff, everybody. There is a moral and spiritual sickness that has infected the Democrat Party.

Are we getting thank yous from leading Democrats? Of course not. Democrats don't care about humanity. They don't stand and applaud the kid with brain cancer.

Okay, everybody, it's the end of the Charlie Kirk show. J.D. Vance gives an amazing speech about what is happening in Germany and the geopolitical implications of such. We break down why Maine still has men winning awards and medals, a shocking story, what we can do to end the lawfare, and a very weak summit from the disinvited crew of the people that used to be involved in the Republican Party.

With President Trump making massive strides in his first month in office, alone to deliver on campaign promises to make America great again, it's clear his administration is committed to driving down costs and unleashing prosperity across our country. But Big Pharma is standing in the way. They've raised prices on over 575.

Brand name drugs in January alone blocked competition and spent millions pushing overpriced meds on hardworking Americans. Now they're pressuring Congress to implement mandates that will undermine the one real check against drug companies and ban the very market based incentives that help employers and families save on prescriptions and health care costs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Even worse, Big Pharma wants to strip American employers of the freedom to choose health benefits that work best for them. Their proposals could hand Big Pharma a $32 billion money grab at the expense of American employers and families. Conservatives for lower health care costs warns that Big Pharma isn't on our side. They fought against solutions to lower drug prices during Trump's first term.

oppose Bobby Kennedy's nomination to HHS to make America healthy again, and now they want even more government control over the private health care market, interfering with President Trump's promise to cut prescription drug costs.

So President Donald Trump signed an executive order saying that men will not compete in female sports, but states are just ignoring it. And it's time for the Department of Justice and for the Department of Education to start to enforce this. It's a tragic story out of the state of Maine.

Joining us now is State Rep. Laurel Libby, a state representative from District 90, and also Zoe Hutchins from Maine High School track and field with a remarkable story here. Welcome to both of you. Zoe, why don't you introduce yourself and tell us the story of what has recently happened to you?

Momentarily after the conclusion of our time together today, I'll be getting into a car and going to the University of South Florida for the kickoff of the American Comeback Tour. We mention frequently here on this program how Donald Trump has remade the Republican Party, how Donald Trump has kicked some of the rough edges of the Republican Party out.

It's a terrible story. I have so many questions, but first I want to get State Representative Libby on this. Representative Libby, tell us from your perspective what's going on here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
So I want to now go back to Zoe here. So Zoe, I'm sure there's a fair amount of outrage locally about this, but probably quiet. Are people starting to speak up about this? And just so everyone is clear, the vault that won the female competition would have been 10th in the men's, just so we are clear. So the one that won the one for women's would have been 10th in men's.

Tell us about the energy on the ground. Are parents upset or are most people saying this is what progress looks like?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
I mean the side-by-side is remarkable here. And so Representative Libby, President Trump has said that he might withhold federal money to Maine if this nonsense happens. Are any of your Democrat colleagues or any of – is the governor or anybody worried that this might interrupt federal payments to Maine if they allow this to continue?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
I would hope so. What part of Maine, is this near Portland or Augusta or Bangor? What part of Maine is this happening in?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
And this is more clear than ever, given President Trump's approach to foreign policy. Unafraid to call Zelensky a dictator, which of course he is, saying that I'm going to go visit Russia and Putin should go visit America. We're going to go broker peace.

Well, thank you for your courage. I just wish more adults in the room would agree.

It's time for President Trump to enforce the executive order that he signed. And whether it's the Department of Justice, Department of Education, money has to stop flowing to states that are doing this. This is not just about signing executive orders. This is why we need the deputies. This goes back to the whole Senator Tom Cotton conversation. That's why we need the deputy-level positions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
You have biological men that are still winning awards, and there has to be a collision point on this. And President Trump has done the courageous and the correct thing. He has done his job. Now it's time for us to enforce it and withhold funding. And look, we got to start to turn up the temperature. You can start with funding about things that Maine may or may not care about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
But will Maine really go to the mat on this if all of a sudden Medicaid funding is potentially put in jeopardy? I know that might sound a little extreme, but at what point are we going to say biological reality is going to triumph? The current set of circumstances right now is that your emotions, not any evidence, allows you to win whatever championship you want. I feel like a woman.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
I could be a woman. The song I feel like a woman is the entire trans movement. It's time for us to be actively intolerant of men masquerading as women and winning championships. Understand that is only one manifestation of the trans extremism. It's the one that obviously wins the most people over. But it's happening. Do you know that it has happened well over 900 times according to a UN report?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Over 900 times in 29 different sports, men pretending to be women have won championships and medals all across the world. 900 times. We're told all it doesn't happen. It happens a lot. 900 times. Look, it's time for us to start to lay it down. President Trump did the right thing and signed the executive order Workers of the federal government now have to start to enforce it.

For as long as we've been doing this show, let's get just the still image of Trump and Ilana. We have been talking about we need better elites. You see, we reject the Marxist premise that we're going to get rid of all of our elites. It's not going to happen.

because of the Pareto principle and the laws of nature, authored by nature's God, God Almighty, there will be people that end up at the top of your society.

Leaders, democratically elected, within our constitutional republic system, that is not just a four-year reign or an eight-year reign. We're talking about the opportunity.

Understand that not every day is going to be good. There'll be ups and downs. There'll be ebbs and flows. There'll be whacks and wanes. But we have an opportunity with this combo.

We could make one bad decision just like Nixon taping himself Watergate. Nixon was one of the most popular presidents ever until the intel agency took him out. We must stay on our toes.

And what he is deciding to do with his wealth, which you're always going to have wealthy people, is the opposite of what our elites have done the last 30 years.

The one thing that unites every single one of these people, actually two things, is their belief in neoconservative foreign policy, number one, and number two, is their admiration of the security state.

This here should give you such comfort of what Donald Trump has kicked out of our party and what you have kicked out of our party. Michael Steele, who used to be the chairman of the Republican Party in a time long gone. Jeff Duncan, who is or was the lieutenant governor of Georgia. And what they represent is a statist wing of the now changed Republican Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
And they know there's no place for them in this Republican Party. They know that. They hate Doge because it might actually challenge The money train that they have benefited for quite some time. They don't want an open border. And this is an extension of the damage that the Bush junta did to this country. And they should try to do this conference in any other city.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Try to do this conference in Scottsdale or in Miami. You could only do this in Washington, D.C. It's the only constituency in the country that would dare to even entertain this nonsense. But it's a very, very important point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Because as we look at this roster, as you put it up on screen, understand there are still elements of the Republican Party that are currently in office that agree with all these people, but they're sleeper cells within our ranks. Now, of course, we love disagreement. That's never been the issue. If you want to be Susan Collins and you want to disagree with us publicly, let's have at it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Let's lay it down. I'll respect you. That is not the issue. The issue is people who lie and say that they are from deep red states when in reality, they're not. They say that they are Trump faithful. They say they are loyal to the agenda. You go look at their website. There's a lot of U.S. senators that agree with this nonsense. It's such a time warp back to 2012. You read this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
A lot of these are just abstractions as you go through this. The most important question, though, is what do they believe is the role of American foreign policy? Every single person at this event supports sending more money to Ukraine. Every single person of this now dead Republican Party believes that deportations are cruel and unusual.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
And now you compare it with the current leadership structure. And it's not even that the list is that bad of the principles on their website. I mean, you know, we believe in the Constitution. Of course we believe in all that. But it's so obvious why they're holding a lame rebel conference instead of hosting the president. They're lame and they're weak.

Hegseth just announced an 8% annual cut at the Department of Defense. But let me reiterate, there are so many people in the Republican Party, in the U.S. Senate, that hold these neoconservative, neoliberal views. And just so we are clear, what is a neoconservative? A neoconservative is a modern-day empire builder. They want to invade the world and invite the world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Neoconservatism is an outgrowth of Marxist ideology. It is statism at its core. That we can go bring the American foreign policy machine to a country near you and bring democracy to Baghdad or bring democracy to Kabul. The project of Karl Rove, the project of George W. Bush, it really comes all down to Bush, really.
The Charlie Kirk Show

There was a president who said all the superficial stuff that all of these other guys say, but was an inept ideological and practical failure. And the metamorphosis is continuing. But the point I want to reiterate to all of you is that there are still a lot of senators right now that talk a good game when it comes to President Trump, and they're not always there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
Some that really might surprise you. And there's been some that have stepped up to the plate and have done a great job. But there's other senators that there's some questions.

It's called the Undersecretary for Policy. Very, very important job. Extremely important job. So Elbridge Colby is not that controversial. In fact, he's incredibly qualified. You can listen to his conversation with Tucker Carlson. He's thoughtful. He understands the issues. He is as good as it gets.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
And he has written the premier book on the rise of the Chinese Communist Party, on the looming danger, the clear and present danger of the CCP. And for whatever reason, we haven't been able to get a good answer. His nomination has been stalled and is being opposed again.

by senator tom cotton now thankfully we're moving in the right direction here senator tom cotton i've known him for quite a while i have nothing personal against him i don't i think he's phenomenal on immigration i think he's great on crime he's the one that was encouraging the president to invoke the insurrection act during all of the floyd apalooza stuff
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
So he's great on a lot of issues on foreign policy. We are on completely different planets. I've said that before on this program. Tom Cotton's foreign policy views are indecipherable from that of Dick Cheney and Bill Kristol. And you don't take my word for it. You can go look at the information and see what he says. His criticism when it comes to Ukraine is that Joe Biden did not do enough to
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
He said, we did not send enough money. We did not send enough weapons. That was his criticism on Ukraine. You can look it up. Please find the tweet, guys. I could read it on here. And so what's really going on here with the Elbridge-Colby-Tom Cotton collision is is that it's a philosophical and a worldview schism that is unfolding. I've now sent out two tweets.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
They've been seen millions of times, about seven or eight million times, asking the question why Senator Tom Cotton is getting in Elbridge Colby's way to become third in line. It's one of Trump's picks. We don't know the answer to that question. It's probably because Senator Tom Cotton is getting a little worried that the Bill Kristol, George W. Bush foreign policy regime is coming to an end.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
It is sunsetting. Now, of course, every senator is able to ask robust questions to get assurances. All of that is fine. But it goes beyond that. Senator Cotton has called the president directly trying to undermine Elbridge Colby's nomination. Senator Tom Cotton has been trying everything he possibly can to derail this and saying, oh, I'm actually not trying to derail it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
A lot of this is behind the scenes stuff that is now, of course, publicly reported. I'm happy to say, though, that Elbridge Colby is now meeting with Senator Tom Cotton and hopefully that will proceed. But I would love for those of you in the great state of Arkansas to chime in and to give your opinions or anyone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
How would you feel if Senator Cotton or other senators like him decide to vote against President Trump's nominees? It's not enough just to do Bobby Kennedy and cash. All that is great. Tulsi Gabbard. But now we are talking about the inner workings of these departments.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Sad, Disinvited RINOS + Elon & Vance + Maine Defies Trump
And Elbridge's book, which you guys should all check out, The Strategy of Denial, American Defense in an Age of Great Power Conflict, is one of the most thoughtful pieces of work He is resolutely pro-Israel, obviously America first. And the criticism that they have against Elbridge Colby is that Elbridge basically has written that he does not want to go to war against Iran. That's it.

resulted in a tension point and you're seeing the ideological rift unfold and i have been helping lead the x and the twitter chatter here again i hope senator cotton does the right thing this is not against him personally but i can tell you if he does oppose some of these nominees that the grassroots of arkansas are not going to like that they they're not going to like the fact that

that President Trump won a declarative mandate election and he's not able to get his cabinet positions in and his sub-cabinet positions in, deputies, third in control, fourth in control. We have one tweet from Senator Cotton about Ukraine. No timidity in half measures. Time to send Ukraine the weapons needed to end this invasion. Well, we did send the weapons. Did the invasion end? Of course not.

Check out magachristmasbooks.com. Noah, you do a great job. Noah, you're going to turn Pennsylvania into Ohio. Just don't tell them that. We have a very special guest. First ever media appearance, I think. Is that right? You got to talk in the mic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And you've never done one of these? She is events OG. Yes. and you guys know who you're looking at here she is the grand maestro the chief executive of all turning point events she does a great job don't you think thank you lauren i mean this this is all her Her work.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
So, Lauren, welcome to the show. You're a great friend, amazing patriot, a humble leader. How is it, Lauren, to feel just how this thing has grown?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Same time, you want to make sure that there's.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Yeah. And so, Lauren, just kind of go through the logistics of this, because it's easy for people to just kind of say, oh, this thing happens on itself. But guys, you understand that just for example, how many times have we hosted President Trump this year?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Wait, we hosted President Trump seven times this year? Yes, we did. Jack, can you add some context for an outside group to host the president seven times? Is that normal?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Yeah, I'm just thinking we did it in Arizona twice. We did it in Detroit. We did it in Georgia. We did it in Vegas. We did it in West Palm. That's right. We did it in West Palm Beach. I forgot about that one. And then we did it here at America Fest. So and by the way, the president is the best. We have his back 100 percent. He loves the execution of our events, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Lauren, talk about the standard of excellence that you've set with your team about everything from visual design, from flow of experience, of what we have created here at Turning Point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
So Lauren, I mean, an event like this, walk into the planning. We literally begin planning for next year's AmFest like now. Yes. It is a year of planning. We also do Believer Summit, Student Action Summit, Young Women's Leadership Summit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Well, that's why we always oversell the capacity in the room. So I will give an announcement multiple times. Your seat is not guaranteed for President Trump because, look, even if we have a packed speaker, let's say somebody like Tucker tonight, there'll be 2,000 people in the exhibit hall. Meaning that there's always people not in the room. And so you oversell the room.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
We just kept on adding on to it. Jack, can you brag on that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
But it was grassroots. The two is extremely a lot of these people are still here. They were awesome. What Lauren brought, though, was a spark.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Talk about the breakouts, Lauren. I think that's really important for everyone to understand. It's not just the razzle dazzle on stage, but it's the hard work in the breakout session. Speak about that, Lauren.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Are you ready to lose weight but not sure where to start? I understand. I was right where you are two years ago. Let me tell you why I chose the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition. Her program is based on years of research and is science-based. Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition. There is so much more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind, and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place. There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change. And finally, a probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds. Look, they're amazing. If you want to lose weight, you got to go to myphdweightloss.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
But with President Trump, I'm a little worried that that exhibit hall is going to be. So I'm going to just I just want to be as clear as I can with President Trump. You got to get there early.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
I was just texting with Dr. Ashley Lucas today. If you're ready to lose weight for the last time, call 864-644-1900. Go online at myphdweightloss.com. Do what I did and what hundreds of my listeners have done and call today, 864-644-1900. I recommend their program. Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition. Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition, but it's so much more. Go to MyPhDWeightLoss.com. MyPhDWeightLoss.com. Call 864-644-1900. I lost over 30 pounds. Dr. Asher Lucas, great American. Check it out. MyPhDWeightLoss.com. So we have an amazing agenda. Let's walk through kind of what we have going tonight. So tonight we have Tucker, we have Bannon, we have Ben Shapiro, Don Jr.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And Dr. Carson. And then we're also planning for a presidential kind of arrival. Let's kind of go back in time. Jack, you remember this. This is only at Turning Point Action and what we've built here is as possible. We hosted the president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
in Duluth Georgia and Vegas in back-to-back days in 24 hours I did two campus events in between we had no sleep pastor summit as well we what the pastor summit as well yeah and the past and we did a pastor summit I lost my voice got sick again and it was flawless totally full and beautifully executed and how large was your staff to pull that off
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
So last point here, Lauren, there's a huge demand of people that want to come to this, speak at this exhibit. What is our quick schedule for 2025? What do we have coming up?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
There will be a lot more than that, Lauren. I can guarantee it. Everybody, we wanted to put a face to the name. She makes these events happen, and her team does. Her team deserves all the credit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
When you're walking the halls, you need to go find a Turning Point staffer and say thank you. They haven't slept in weeks to make sure that you have a great and excellent experience. So it's the best staff movement. Jack, you have a thought really quick.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Not only that, let me tell you the other true story here. We're going over the budget for that event. And I said, for the love of everything holy, we are not going to spend money anymore, Lauren, on these stupid, like, Twizzlers. What do we call them? The Cold Sparks. It's a waste of money. And Lauren's like, we have to do it. She overrode me. And now it's like the most beautiful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Do we have any B-roll? We had no B-roll this segment. Okay. Lauren, thank you so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to throw it to Brian Glenn, the legend. Brian, how are we doing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Isaac, you're from Glendale. What brings you here? Yeah, I work for Arizona Christian University. And just Turning Point just aligns with our mission to change culture with the truth of God.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Pardon every single one of the J6ers. Hey, Brian, Brian, that's a great segue. I got to interrupt. OK, and I'll throw it back to you in a second. Is that OK? That's because I have one of the J6ers right here who they're trying to throw in federal prison. Wow. Siaka Masakwai. Siaka, you are you have a court date on January 21st. It's so interesting how they plan that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
So, Siaka, we've known each other for a while. What did you do on January the 6th?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And how many federal charges are you facing? Uh, four misdemeanors. Four misdemeanors. And so when you say pardon all the J-6ers on day one, you're including Siakam Sikwai, who deserves a full pardon or at least the very least case charges dropped. Brian, let's keep on going around the horn there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
What's your name? Where are you from?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
That's a big order right there. Think big. I like it. All right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
You're the best. Brian will be here all weekend, if I'm not mistaken, amfest.com. Siaka, I just want to ask you, you were followed by federal agents for quite a while. You walked off a plane, I believe, with your pregnant wife, and they harassed you. They arrested me. They arrested you as if you were some sort of, you know, vigilante. By the way, this is how sick this is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
There are child sex traffickers that are not even investigated and they chase Siaka Masakwai around the world as if he's El Chapo. How did you remain faithful? And then finally, what was your reaction when you knew President Trump won this election?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Bless you, brother. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And that's very kind of you to say, Jack. And it's totally true. I mean, this event, understand, we used to do this event in Palm Beach. And it was originally called... Yeah, it was called Winter in West Palm Beach. Then it was called SAS. And we said, okay, Florida's a great state. It's going that way. I said, but our home, Arizona, is falling apart.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And we need to double and triple down our investment in Arizona. And now we can look back after four AmFests and four different events that... Donald Trump won Arizona by five and a half points. It was the best performing swing state by far. In fact, when I spoke to President Trump, and I said this in the previous hour, he said, Charlie, I will only come on one condition.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
You call it a tribute to Arizona. And he said, any other state, I don't know if I'd do it. President Trump has always had a very personal connection. Let me just say one last thing. This venue is where the first ever MAGA rally was. That's right. Was here in this Phoenix Convention Center. Bruce Tyler, he was just here. I know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And now President Trump comes back to this very same venue nine years later to receive his crown. One that he earned and one that you gave him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Very, very kind. I give it all to the people of Arizona. The people of Arizona, they took out their shovels. They did the work. This state was so abused in 2020. I want you to think about this. What, 10,000 votes we fell short in 2020, all that nonsense. They tried to put Tyler Boyer in prison, all this alternate elector nonsense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
I mean, they did everything they could to try to bully us into submission.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Yeah, I think Tyler hopefully is going to be okay. We'll see. If not, we're going to have to remove Chris Mays from office as Attorney General of Arizona. Of which? Oh, well. Right. Well, we're already that's a top priority of me. In some ways, I want that one even more than the governor's. But we got it. We got to flip the governor as well. She is such a terrible person.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
But understand this, that Donald Trump won Georgia by about two points. North Carolina by about three points. Pennsylvania by about a point and a half. You guys did great. Hundred twenty thousand votes. However, did you know we won Arizona by more votes than he won Pennsylvania by despite the population being nearly in aggregate?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Like actually like we won Arizona by one hundred ninety seven thousand raw votes. Donald Trump won Pennsylvania by one hundred twenty thousand raw votes. Said differently, we won Arizona by five and a half points. Right. And again, that sort of swing just doesn't happen automatically. It's through ballot chasing voter registration. We're really, really proud of that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
The president wanted to highlight that and celebrate it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024

How many voters did you personally register in the state of Pennsylvania?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
3,000 voters. I mean, so walk us through kind of what you did this cycle. You just kept your head down. You did the work. And Noah, we had you throughout. It's just amazing. 3,000 new voters. Noah, tell us about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
So, Noah, tell us about what we did that one day at Penn State University in Center County. That was an amazing event. Walk us through it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
Why did Penn State bail me out, Jeff?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And the first time, when I mean I had no voice, I mean, Jack, how bad was it? So Charlie's got no voice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
I was trying to figure this out. I said, how do I debate people without talking?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
There's been some chatter. I mean, we're near 20,000 tickets sold. We're right near there. We don't have 20,000 seats in there. So, again, some people show up. This is where the fire marshal comes in and it becomes a bit of a. This is where a turning point events become equally an art as a science. Yes. And because you want to try to maximize the amount of people to come.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
And we registered hundreds of new voters, didn't we?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
So I sit down and Jack's next to me and people are asking questions. I said, how am I going to do this thing? I'm thinking to myself. Next thing I know, Penn State comes in. You're not allowed to be here. You know, it's like no application.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Gang's All Here — Live at AmFest 2024
I was going to say, they took my voice. Penn State took my voice. And so then I went and took a selfie with every kid for about an hour and a half. So Penn State's tyranny actually bailed me out a little bit. So, Noah, really quick. You were there on the day that President Trump got shot in Butler. Jack talks about it in his book here, Bulletproof. Jack, I'm going to let you ask Noah the question.

I love when these eight anonymous senators say they're going to vote against Tulsi. What are your names, actually? Exactly. Tell us.

By the way, that's going to be a big fight. Big fight. Big fight. I think Tulsi, Bobby, I think Hegseth, I think he's on a glide path.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
They're going to go all in on Bobby and Tulsi. Tulsi, 100%. I have always said this, and people disagreed. The keeper of secrets is not something they're going to hand over to Tulsi Gabbard. Exactly. Heig said they think they can manage him. They think they can put him in time.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So, Cliff, I think this will be instructive. Walk us through now the analysis of what happened in Pennsylvania. Can we get a map of Pennsylvania of the election results? Because a lot of what we were talking about, we had you on the show beforehand, what we have to do. We had you on the show during when we were counting votes, what we think was happening. But the dust has settled yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
19 electoral votes for Pennsylvania went for Donald J. Trump. What happened? Walk us through region by region. Educate the audience on this remarkable and historic win.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Charlie, I'm going to be back to keep that map up on screen. So Center County is the home of obviously Penn State. As you mentioned, it's a monster county and traditionally it is a D plus 10. 10 or 15. 10 or 15. And again, this is the story of turning point action on the ground. I was like, Cliff, I think we could win Center County or lose by less. We're going to get it one of these years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
We're going to win Center County. And we had 5,000 students show up to just one of our events at Penn State University.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Because, I mean, it has been a decade in the making. This one was harder than 16 in so many different ways. Can you talk about that, Steve? Hold on.
The Charlie Kirk Show

You know, obviously, Allegheny County, Philadelphia County is the blue in the south, in the southwest, the bottom left of your corner. That's Allegheny.

I want to celebrate what you guys did at P.A. Chase, but emphasize it even more because the election results actually were a little bit closer in the final tally than I think people will really realize. I mean, the final margin was 120,000 votes. How many votes were you guys responsible for at P.A. Chase?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And I'm trying to build you up here because there is this belief it was a landslide would have happened automatically. I don't buy into that premise.

I can proclaim to you right now, we do not have 53 Senate seats and Trump's cabinet would be in jeopardy. And we would not be Senator Dave McCormick without Cliff Maloney at P.A. Chase. I can say that. And I could even go as far to say on the McCormick, less on Trump. I think turning point played a big role in the McCormick. I think us together, it's bulletproof, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
That you are looking at Senator Dave McCormick. And he's been very gracious, by the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And so the idea or the big picture vision, can we turn Pennsylvania into Ohio? Is that in the cards? Can we duplicate this? Can we replicate this? The reason I think yes is less about data. It's how Fetterman is acting. Fetterman is acting like he's representing a red state. Can we turn this into the new Ohio?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And the messaging campaign, make Pennsylvania, Ohio, is not great. That's not exactly going to fire up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
That turnpike rivalry, you're going to have riots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And so what does that look like? Let's talk about House representatives. Where's the low hanging fruit in the U.S. House? Is Conor Lamb still in there? Is that how is that Sean Parnell district? That's what I was thinking of it as colloquially. Is that still Democrat control?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So let me get this straight. They don't rest. So we flip two districts in Pennsylvania and we still only have a couple seat majority. So without what you did in Pennsylvania, we have Speaker Hakeem Jeffries.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So you have a breakout here. I think you're doing something here. What is your message to the grassroots? Because there's millions of people at home say, Charlie, I wish I could go to AmFest. I wish I could go to AmFest. What is your message to somebody watching right now that is celebrating Trump's win? What are the marching orders in 2025?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Because if we seize 2025, we are going to be able to defray any sort of Democrat counterattack in 26.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I mean, you and I have seen these CRs and CRs for quite some time, and now we finally have a counter.

The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
My man, Cliff. And Cliff will always be in the legendary, the legends of Turning Point for being, leaning into. Remember this moment. That's right. The Al Michaels miracles do happen moment. I'm telling you, it is. Do you believe in miracles? It's Al Michaels right there. It's just, there's no escaping it. It's like everyone gets me. He's like, who is that guy narrating it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I said, well, he actually did a lot of work. Cliff, you're the best. Thanks so much. Appreciate you, Charlie. Okay. We have James O'Keefe here. James, great to see you, my friend. Charlie. How are you doing? Great. You've had a great year. You had some really good stories. I know 2023 was tough for you. It's all public, you know, but how is 2024 for you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So that's an interesting point. So can the president, by executive order, or at least instruct his DOJ to expand whistleblower protections?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
the new ohio that's right and you're making arizona the new florida we got cliff maloney right here from pa chase and arizona though we can say something pennsylvania can't say we were the best performing swing state and by far the biggest shift from on arizona is unbelievable five and a half point victory and i understand that we were outspent three to one here in arizona kamala harris just submerged us with television advertisements
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So if there was maybe a memorandum signed on the first couple of days, theoretically, and the president says there will be amnesty given no retaliation to any whistleblower of things you saw during the Biden administration. And he proclaims that. Could you imagine the incoming? I mean, what based on your reporting, what would that what would that result in?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
We should incentivize whistleblowing. Now, we don't want to get into a place where you're tattling because your boss was mean to you. Correct.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So talk about some of your recent reporting that you have found. You had a guy on the National Security Council who basically said Biden is a corpse. Am I correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Let's play cut 91. This is Harry Appel, part of the NSC. I hope you guys understand, this is not some sort of dog-catching enterprise in D.C. The NSC, this is the president's personal national security apparatus. Not Senate-confirmed. It works straight out of the White House. This is not even Pentagon. This, in some ways, has a direct connection to the commander-in-chief.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Okay, that's a big deal. There's only 50 or 60 people that work in the NSC. In fact, everyone in DOD wants to one day become a National Security Council advisor. Play cut 91.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
He's, like, really, like, progressed in his old age.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I can't believe it wasn't a bigger scandal. He'll be dead in a year. So for those that couldn't hear, what was he? Can you transcribe that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
The Wall Street Journal says how the White House functioned with a diminished Biden in charge. That's a nicer way to harmonize with your reporting. By the way, this is the power of James O'Keefe. James O'Keefe comes out with this story and then creates intellectual permission for the Wall Street Journal to write that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I think I'm going to tell the president and his team, we need to have a 90-day whistleblower amnesty program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And James, is your team prepared to have the incoming?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I love that. So the 90 day, just theoretical, you have 90 days to report all crimes, corruption. And again, if you're going to just be like, well, you know, this guy misgendered me. OK, thanks so much. That's not whistleblowing. OK, we're going to talk about, hey, for example, Border Patrol knew that kids were being smuggled and they didn't. Correct.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
That's right, which did not help the ecosystem as far as, but Trump still won by five and a half points. It was the best improvement for him, at least the reported total, because we, you know, 2020.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I love this, James. I think that your emphasis, your focus, your life's work has been in and around this idea of courageous truth tellers. But the description of whistleblowers looking retroactively at an outgoing, unpopular treasonous and criminal regime. James, I think you could you could reform government for a generation.

They put so much money in here, I thought they had it. So much so, I don't want to get too cocky here. It's possible the Democrats start to retreat from the state if we keep this momentum up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Yeah, because, I mean, look, you look at Georgia. That was a 1.8-point victory. North Carolina, 3 points. Pennsylvania, 1.7. Michigan, 1.2. Wisconsin, under 1. Nevada, 3.2. And then Arizona, boom, by far the biggest. And that's a testament to the grassroots, to the ballot chasing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And we had staff in Nevada, too. We ballot chased there, too. But the point being is that what we did in Arizona worked. We're going to celebrate that. And I mentioned on your program, Steve, the president coming here, big deal, going out west, you know, nearly eight hours of flying.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
In front of an audience. But he sold me on the phone. He said, Charlie, I will only come under one condition. It is called a tribute to Arizona. You have to understand that at this very convention center was President Trump's first ever MAGA rally. Oh, I remember. His first ever MAGA rally in 2015 was here in this convention center where Tyler Boyer, our COO, actually hosted it and planned it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And they really like, are a couple hundred people going to show up? Turned out like 2,000 people. The idea of the MAGA rally was birthed in this center. Yes. And now he is coming for his momentous address celebrating the greatest victory in American history.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Well, not just people, but I think the president was like, oh, this thing's huge, right? And all of a sudden, this new genre of a political event off the cuff. The Trump rally. Was boring. No one thought it was. Because understand, political events before Trump were incredibly sanitized. They were overly rehearsed. It was almost as if they were putting on a theater play, right? Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Trump was like, I need a microphone, I need a flag, and a bunch of chairs, and let's go. And he did it all across the country. He broke the mold. I think he's did over 900 MAGA rallies since 2016, something like that. I need to get the final number, but it's something extraordinary. So Steve, let's kind of...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So what is your whole theory on that? I mean, because my whole theory is that first off, what does the Constitution say?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
It was everywhere. But the Constitution does say two terms, though, right? Two terms.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
My favorite headline was Steve Bannon, MAGA scholar. Exactly. That was great. So, Steve, now let's get to the immediate, the here and now. I've been planning this event, and this is not me just playing coy. I can't keep up with the CR stuff, right? I mean, it's coming at a high, high pace. The incoming is remarkable. You see the clock here. Just let's draw that down.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
But, Steve, what is the ask? What is a result out of this Congress that we can stomach? Not the ideal. You and I want 12 approved bills. We want real spending. That's not going to happen in this session.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Go home. I know, but what is something we could tolerate?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And I think there is wisdom to this idea that Trump should not inherit the dysfunction of this Congress. Yes. A clean slate, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
And I don't like talking like that. But Trump day one should not have to fix the problem of this. The debt ceiling. Yes. OK, so, Steve, some people are talking. I think you might have said motion to vacate on this new speaker's race because we got to get through this and hopefully we can get debt ceiling CR together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
The reason I think the president is wise to push the debt ceiling is that he doesn't want Schumer to be able to have leverage with him in future months. Now, do you think it's time that we get a new speaker?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
So he was negotiating this in secret? Is that the implication?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
I want who the president wants. It's that simple. And so the negotiation right now should be very simple. CR, debt ceiling, but not a boondoggle CR, right? How do we get to a place with bio labs in Uganda? Ukraine and a CR.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
Right near 20,000. Now, we don't have 20,000 seats in there, so it's going to be a little bit of a first come, first serve. And, you know, we've been trying to tell people, hey, tickets are going to run out. I got an email, oh, Charlie, I'll be fine. I said, I don't think you're going to be fine. But we have President Trump keynoting on Sunday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
The way that it was presented is that this was like a last-minute rush deal, but you read it. This has been negotiated intimately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Biggest Amfest Ever Begins
But hold on. If the debt... It's somewhat evidently dead, but if all the Democrats vote for this and a couple Republicans, this bad CR could still pass.

So I don't want people to see the movie, but it is a it is a serious. Moral conundrum, which is if you can't do help the whole world, you let everybody into your quote unquote homestead in a situation like this. Does the film view this through a Christian ethic?

So just to fill in more on that clip, though, just because we only have two minutes remaining in the segment. I'm assuming I'm inferring based on that clip.

So let's play some piece of tape here. Let's go to cut 53 of Speaker Johnson, of which, look, I'm not going to comment on that because I think the Speaker wants to have a clean slate. But why not work through Christmas? Let's play cut 53.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
He says, and by the way, there's also an ethics report that has been released on Matt Gaetz. So Matt responds on Twitter by saying, the Biden Garland DOJ spent years reviewing allegations that I committed various crimes. I was charged with nothing and fully exonerated, not even a campaign finance violation. And the people investigating me hated me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
Then the very witnesses DOJ deemed credible, deemed not credible, were assembled by the House Ethics to repeat their claims absent any cross-examination or challenge from me or my attorneys. I've had no chance to ever confront any accusers. I've never been charged and I've never been sued.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
Instead, House Ethics will reportedly post a report online that I have no opportunity to debate or rebut as a former member of the body. In my single days, I often sent funds to women I dated, even some I never dated, but who asked. I dated several of these women for years. I never had any sexual contact with someone under 18.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
Any claim that I have would be destroyed in court, which is why no such claim was ever made in court. My 30s were an era of working very hard and playing very hard too. It's embarrassing, though not criminal, that I partied, womanized, drank, and smoked more than I ever should have in my life. I live a different life now, but at least I didn't vote for a CR that messes over the country.

The way of doing business, the mode of operating right now is unsustainable. It is unsustainable to allow Congress to continue to spend trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars that we do not have and act as if this is fine. The American people gave us a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Now, we haven't yet sworn in that Congress. We haven't yet started that deal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
But we have a mandate that is incredibly serious, and the future of the country hangs in the balance in more ways than one. We have to ask ourselves the question, are we serious about actually fulfilling that mandate, giving Trump his cabinet? Or are we just going to kind of do minor corporate tax reform and hope things get better? I do sympathize with the argument to give Trump a clean slate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
I think that's I think that's wise. Because you don't want Trump on day one to use all of his political capital given by the American people to solve the Biden dysfunction of Congress. So I think that's perfectly fair. However, this is still its own Congress with its own mandate. This was the 2022 mandate that we are still living under.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Beating Hollywood's War on Christians
This is the 2022 mandate that the people gave the House of Representatives to Republican hands. So why are we not fighting at all? And I get it.

Hey everybody, time to Charlie Kirk show. Patrick Bet-David joins the show for the entire program here. He'll be speaking at AmericaFest, so get your tickets right now at amfest.com. That is A-M-F-E-S-T dot com. Brought to you by Turning Point USA at amfest.com. That is amfest.com. We talk about Trump stamina, what it means that you can call Trump directly, and more.

He's also a part owner of the Yankees. I'm not saying anything that's not public. So he understands business very, very well. It seems like Doge, if it is executed upon, can accelerate that 12-year trajectory. That can be one of the greatest, look what changed, look what we did. And it is bipartisan. It is with great agreement. People want the government to be scaled down and more efficient.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
How should we think about Doge? Patrick, about David.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
He's the CEO of Valuetainment, host of the PBD podcast, author of Your Next Five Moods, and founder of an app that I'm using more and more called Manect, which I think we're going to talk about throughout this hour. Manect is amazing. In fact, I was just responding to some Manects in the break. PBD, great to see you. Great to see you. So thank you for taking the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But they say it's going to crash the markets. It's going to destroy the American economy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And PBD, you're coming out this weekend to our event. I know you're very busy, and it means a lot that you're taking the time to come west. Talk about what you learned at the event last year and what you're planning to share with our audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And so through the Department of Government Efficiency, you've gone into business before and you're able to identify waste, identify, let's just say, allocation of resources that are not efficient. One of the major issues that Doge is going to have, though, is dealing with the bureaucracy, actually being able to fire people, actually being able to lay them off.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
If you were to give them advice as an outsider, as an analytical thinker, How should they go about this? Because at some point they're going to get an injunction from a judge saying you can't do this, you can't fire this. What is your open advice to Doge to make sure that they have a successful mission?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I mean, I completely agree. I think that there's a whole paradigm shift in how we view politics in the art of the possible and all of our preconceived notions of the size and scope of government from how spending is done and appropriated. to just how we view our elected leaders. I think it's all changing. I think it's all changing, and that's because the media is changing itself.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
PPD, before we get into the media thing, I want to make sure we have an opportunity. Can you please educate our audience on MNECT? We have that on the lower third, MNECT.com. I've been using it a lot. I'm using it increasingly. It's a wonderful platform. Please tell our audience about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
It's MNEC.com. We're going to be talking about it at AmericaFest as well. It's a way that I communicate with a lot of people in the audience. It's terrific. Okay, let's do this as a setup here. This is the changing media landscape. This is Stephanie Rule saying she got access to President Trump, and he told her to go away.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But if she wanted to get a hold of Vice President Harris, it was 50 layers of handlers. It's very interesting. I don't know if you saw this clip or not. Yes, I did. I did. Play cut 60.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
So let me if I could just chime in. And I do have a direct question. We hosted the president in Atlanta, Georgia, two days before. Then we hosted the president in Vegas. So the president does three events in Georgia, ours being the last one ending at 11 p.m. Red eyes all the way to Vegas. does a whole tour out west, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Arizona, he goes up to Carson City, ends with us in Vegas, wakes up the next morning at 6 a.m., flies to Austin, does a press conference, does three hours sharp with Rogan, flies to Novi, Michigan, three hours late, ends at midnight, and flies down to Mar-a-Lago and holds court on the plane all the way until 3.30 a.m.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Eastern, holding court, making phone calls, waking people up, getting things going. Hey, everybody. Charlie Kirk here. I'm going to be realistic about my diet in December. It slips a little bit. It's got to be one of the worst months of the year in terms of eating right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD

Balance of Nature is made from whole fruits and veggie ingredients, and I'll not skip taking those daily supplements. It's one thing I'll get right because feeling good is important to me, especially in December.

Honestly, it's hard to disprove.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
The deeper question, though, is I love being able to just be able to call the president straight up. It's hard to describe how rare that is because do you think, PBD, the more layering is a sign of insecurity? Is it a sign of elitism? What is it? Psychoanalyze people that have platoons of handlers and you can't deal direct.

It's a sign of confidence, isn't it? I mean, more than anything else.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Amfest.com. Thank you for saying that. And let's just pick up kind of something you said there. And it's it's highlighted in the shirt right behind you. One of the reasons I love watching your program and reading your books is that you are such an optimist. And that you've lived the American dream and the future looks bright.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You have to be able to take risks. I mean, the buried lead of the McDonald's thing is that there was no guarantee that that was going to fly. It could have come across as really cringe. It could have been like a Dukakis 2.0. You have to be able to take the risks, play to win, And in some ways, you look at Trump 2020 versus 2024. Trump played to win way more in 2024.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
He had his back against the wall.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
No. And yeah, in 2020, look, COVID was tough for everybody and it was unexpected. And there was so much stuff that he was being blamed for that was second and third tier removed from him. And it was tough. It kind of they try to throw him off his game. But in 2024, he set the terms. And, yeah, they did try to throw him off with Lawfare and with, obviously, him getting shot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But he was in that flow state. And evidenced by, you know, this PVD, and you probably coached this with all of the amazing people that come to you, is that you get energy that you didn't know you had when you're in flow state. He was up for 72 hours straight. 72 hours straight. It's the same. With just Diet Cokes, Big Macs, and Happy Meals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
So, PBD, being around the biggest CEOs, can you talk about how when you have aligned purpose, you are able to physically push yourself to places you never thought before? And I think President Trump embodied that. Because everyone marvels. They say, how does he do it? Look, there's a genetic component. I mean, he's just built differently, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
He's just built differently than you and I. If I ate like him, I'd be 385 pounds. But the power of purpose. Dive into that, PBD.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I got to be honest, a lot of people in our audience did not feel that kind of hope, that optimism earlier this year. And the election obviously feels as if it's this national sigh of relief. The future does look bright. Talk about that and also speak about do you believe we're heading into a new golden era in America?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
There's so much more we could discuss here, but the last one I want to ask is the CEOs coming and kissing the ring. It feels different than 2017.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Some of them did it in 2017, but it feels like this is a complete power realignment, that there's an understanding that Trump and his movement is here to stay, and that the Bezos, the Zuckerbergs, the Googles, that they want to be on the right side of this. It feels different than just, oh, I want to try to win Trump over for four years because I don't want the government to come after me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Am I right in sensing that it's deeper than that, PBD?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Do you realize how we got a rap? But it goes back to the same thing, which is like how much of life is just being accessible, listening? How much of it? It's so simple. Not laying yourself with Praetorian guards and fake handlers. No one's more important than Trump. And you could call him and say, hey, what's up? And he'll tell you, let's have lunch or go take a hike. PBD, you're the man.

Election Day 2024 is in our rearview mirror and conservatives are fired up that President Trump heading back to the White House in January. But our fight isn't over and I'm asking you for your help. Conservatives for lower health care costs are warning us that big pharma and the far left are scrambling to fast track a big government scheme to eliminate free market forces in health care.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
before the GOP can take control of the White House and Congress. This pharma-backed scheme called de-linking would hand a massive $32 billion windfall to the biggest drug companies. And guess who would pay? Hardworking American customers, consumers, seniors, and taxpayers. You can help stop Big Pharma's money grab from American seniors and taxpayers by going to pharmawindfall.com right now.

Congress must reject Big Pharma's scheme to boost drug companies' profits, keep drug prices high, undermine competition in health care, and hike health care costs for American people.

President Trump's cabinet is continuing under the advise and consent of the U.S. Senate as the team is being assembled. One of the most important appointments for an incoming president is treasury secretary. the person who's going to help manage the economy and all of the headwinds. Let's listen to Scott Bessant as he is taking questions right now. Let's go to Scott Bessant for Treasury Secretary.

Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. This is a very important reminder about your year-end giving. If you're looking to do something that makes the greatest impact, join me in providing ultrasounds with Preborn and Saving Babies.

Preborn separately fundraises for overhead and administrative, so you can now know that every penny you give right now will go directly to the cause. I am a donor, so listen carefully.

Just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day.

I have a lot to add here. Let's go to Senator Wyden, who I think is asking Besson a question. Let's listen in to Senator Wyden from Oregon.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Thank you, Chairman. Let's throw back here as the great Lee Zeldin takes a five-minute break. Scott Besson is continuing as we are here with January madness as the cabinet is being assembled. Lee Zeldin is interviewing to become the EPA chief, which is the Employment Prevention Agency. I'm kidding. Environmental Protection Agency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
There are more nonsensical regulations that come from EPA than almost any other agency. You would think you have Doug Burgum there for Interior. Yesterday was Chris Wright. You would think that Chris Wright being in charge of energy actually has the most with oil, natural gas, and fossil fuel production. It's not. It's actually Interior and EPA, EPA especially, that oversees that the most.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Let's go to Scott Besson here, who is currently being asked a question from a senator I do not know the name of. Scott Besson, who is going to be managing the economy and whatever comes next. Let's listen to that. Let's listen in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
agriculture that is uh senator maria cantwell from washington asking about tariffs let me tell you why does she really care about tariffs no no she is a proxy for boeing one of the biggest most inefficient companies in america that has not made a good airplane for 20 years by the way of course boeing is headquartered in seattle washington used to actually have its corporate headquarters in chicago or at least a very big office in chicago i'm not exactly sure where they're headquartered
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
It doesn't matter. The point is their biggest base of operation is in Seattle, Washington. And she is a proxy for Boeing. She is very worried that Boeing is no longer going to be able to get cheap Chinese parts to be able to build their 787 Max's that fall out of the sky and can't land correctly. So that's why she's asking that question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Let's now go to Governor Burgum, who wants to become Secretary of Interior. He'd do a great job at this. By the way, of all the jobs in the federal government, that is one of the few that I would love. I would love to be the Secretary of Interior. You say, why would you want to be? I love nature. I love the national parks. All right, let's go to Governor Burgum. Let's listen in.

Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency. Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
The hearings are ongoing. A couple of thoughts I want to make here. The first of which is that the pace at which the Senate is operating here is remarkable. And the Democrats seem to lack a little bit of spunk. I mean, they're going through the motions, but this is not the type of resistance that we saw in 2017. It is very clear that President Trump has a mandate. He won the popular vote.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
And the resistance is this kind of... shrugging their shoulders. They look fatigued. They look tired. And it is a confirmation blitzkrieg that is ongoing right now. This is a very powerful indicator, harbinger, a canary in the coal mine for the type of pace that this administration is going to operate with. It is conceivable that we're going to have a treasury secretary in a week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
We're going to have Pete Hegseth as DOD secretary in a week. We're going to have an attorney general in a week. That is way ahead of schedule than we saw in 2017, far ahead of where we were. Let's listen live in of Scott Besant, who is answering questions from some Senate Democrat. Let's listen to that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Let's cut out here. This is very important, what Scott Besson is saying. He's talking about another blue-collar boom. Wall Street has done extraordinarily well. Home ownership is out of grasp for most Americans. The average home went from about $75,000 a year income that you could afford to now over $140,000 a year it requires to own a home in this country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
And we have seen it more and more out of grasp. in these last couple of years. It is time for a muscular class renaissance for a everyday American golden era. Look, we've been demoralized for years. This is very similar to watching a football game and there's like this big interception that just galvanizes the team and sparks a change in momentum.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
You can sense that now it's the Democrats who are getting demoralized. They've lost their spunk. They've lost their spirit. And we are seeing the momentum build and build. And what Scott Besson was talking about there was incredibly important. That when President Trump was president, it was the lower income earners that saw their incomes go up most dramatically versus these last four years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Not the people at the top 1%, not the people at the top of the income ladder. It is January madness. And what is the agenda? Day one, it's going to be drill, baby, drill, no tax on tips. It's going to be restart the American economy, protect the American worker, secure the southern border. And all of that starts in three days and 23 hours. We are three days and 23 hours out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
We are about 95 hours out. You guys can set a clock to it. 95 hours. And it is going to be shock and awe.

Okay, so that is Scott Besant right now receiving questions. I want to listen in on the EPA right now, the Environmental Protection Agency. This is like March Madness where you got four games going on at once. You got the round of 64. Very contentious. Let's go to Lee Zeldin on the EPA. I'm not sure the name of the committee. Let's listen live.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Maybe the Democrats are. The Republicans seem to just kind of be going through established order there. So we have Scott Besant. We have Dick Durbin doing something that looks like, Mr. Risch from Idaho. And then we have Senator Moran from Kansas basically talking about how he wants people to visit Kansas.

Pam was not there, so she had someone sit on our behalf.
The Charlie Kirk Show

How does that work exactly? I don't understand. So they take questions on behalf of Pam. I didn't even know you could do that. Yeah. Yes, I'm talking about magnesium.

Pretty much every function in your body gets upgraded when you take magnesium, from the quality of your sleep to your brain function, from metabolism to stress levels.

The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
Thank you very much. OK, let's come back here for just a second here, guys, as we are split into those three. I think we have four screens now. So what's going on in the Pam Bondi hearing is that people are testifying pro and con on her behalf. We have the Lee Zeldin situation going on at Shelley Moore Capito. We have the Governor Burgum situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
And let me just tell you the difference of worldview between Bernie Sanders. And Scott Besson, Bernie Sanders is correct. We are getting closer and closer to an oligarchy. We've been saying that on this program for quite some time, but it's not the type of oligarchy that he thinks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
It's an oligarchy of people that have centralized government type control with corporate friendly power on the outside. And we see this kind of inside-out relationship. And the difference between Bernie Sanders and Scott Besson is Bernie Sanders believes in a fixed pie theory, that just because somebody gets rich, he thinks somebody gets poor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
And Bernie Sanders is grilling Scott Besson saying, should we not be able to take this wealth away? But you could always make the pie bigger. The thing about a market is markets work in that people get richer simultaneously through voluntary transaction, through the price system, through the profit motive. the ability to make and take risks in a market economy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
We know what the horrors of socialism have done for so many people. Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com. And I will add one more thing. We are going to kind of go through Joe Biden's farewell address last evening that he gave. Where very interestingly, if Joe Biden and the Democrats would have actually mentioned this rising...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Confirmation Continuum: Day 3
fixture and consolidation of wealth, it would have been a much easier political strategy for them than whatever they ran on this last year. But Scott Besson, I thought, handled that beautifully and masterfully against Mr. Bernie Sanders, who he does not care about the poor. He hates the rich. And those are two very, very different things.

With President Trump making massive strides in his first month in office, alone to deliver on campaign promises to make America great again, it's clear his administration is committed to driving down costs and unleashing prosperity across our country. But Big Pharma is standing in the way. They've raised prices on over $575,000.

Brand name drugs in January alone blocked competition and spent millions pushing overpriced meds on hardworking Americans. Now they're pressuring Congress to implement mandates that will undermine the one real check against drug companies and ban the very market based incentives that help employers and families save on prescriptions and health care costs.

California or Canada: What's Worse?
Even worse, Big Pharma wants to strip American employers of the freedom to choose health benefits that work best for them. Their proposals could hand Big Pharma a $32 billion money grab at the expense of American employers and families. Conservatives for lower health care costs warns that Big Pharma isn't on our side. They fought against solutions to lower drug prices during Trump's first term.

California or Canada: What's Worse?
Ezra, before we get into the plan of which you have authored, and you made the case in the Wall Street Journal, I want to just kind of just take a step back here and how are Canadians processing all of this between our two countries?
The Charlie Kirk Show
California or Canada: What's Worse?
So explain this to me. Was this a party vote? I mean, what exactly was the process here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
California or Canada: What's Worse?
I think you're right. And look, I think all this is going to simmer down. I have great respect for Canadian patriots, not Trudeau, but the rank and file of Canadians have always been so decent and so good to us. And I think the 51st state thing is just... It's just a negotiation. But Ezra, you make a good point here.

Could an unintended consequence of President Trump trying to rebalance some of these trade deals that have been not great for our own country here, could he unintentionally help the liberal party here? Could an unintended benefit, not benefit, but consequence of President Trump saber-rattling, which I support,

a really bad government of Canada and therefore thwarting what looks to be an ascendant conservative correction.

The Charlie Kirk Show
California or Canada: What's Worse?
Well, thank you. And the response has been overwhelming. It has been seen tens of millions of times. People are constantly remarking on it and thought that I handled it in a gentlemanly way, but also very much confronted him on his core contradictions and major issues.

If you are a patriot in this audience and you have private student loan debt or your brother does or your niece does or your nephew does, maybe you're just thinking back to Christmas or Thanksgiving and someone's like, oh my gosh, I have these student loans and I took them out and I shouldn't have and it was a private loan.

and boom you're just thinking like wait a second i remember that well that's why refi that's where they come in they are not a debt settlement company but they help you work with each borrower you individually why refi does not care what your credit score is it may not be available in all states and bad credit is accepted do you have a co-borrower why refi can get them released from the loan you can give mom or dad a break you can even skip a payment every six months up to 12 months without penalty you don't have to ignore

And I don't think it will necessarily work with the Democrat base if he continues in this direction. But let's take this more broadly. And Steve, I was not uniquely positioned to do this.

However, California, even though the biggest audience of this program is in California, and I feel as if I have absorbed the issues, I still have difficulty prosecuting the case against Gavin Newsom for two reasons. Number one, he's so slippery. And so slick at weaseling his way out. You saw that in one time when I was talking about the transgender kidnapping bill, he just lied about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
California or Canada: What's Worse?
And he used an argument from authority saying, you don't understand this. And I said, well, no, it isn't. I felt even a little bit gun shy because I don't live there and I don't work in the general assembly. That's number one. Number two, Gavin kind of has this timeshare salesman vibe to him where he's just able to communicate whatever he needs to hear to the audience.

I want to get into just some of your analysis of where the market is at. But first, I want your comment, Eric, on what Trump is correcting. Trump is correcting a 30 to 40 year error where we allowed the middle class of this country to be hollowed out. And in came drugs and in came homelessness and unemployment and misery.

It looks and sounds good when we are able to say, you know what, there's no duties, there's no tariffs, there's no taxes. However, America has been largely too focused on the importation of goods into America not being tariffed.

The People Voted for Tariffs, And Here's Why
This is from November of 1992. I was born in October of 1993. Before I was even born. This is a reporter that went to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. And was summarizing what we were just describing. So basically here's what happened. A bunch of smart guys like Mitt Romney and the consultant class, the ruling class, they all got their practitioner master's degrees from Harvard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The People Voted for Tariffs, And Here's Why
And what they were told is the most important thing is maximizing profit. They were told the most important thing was maximizing the dollar. You see, but that's not the only political question. That's the only economic question. But when the political question, you must balance human happiness, community, family, crime, displacement.

But if you only ask the economic maximalization question, especially those that have no interest in the well-being of the body politic of the nation or in the citizenry, you get decisions like this. So you go to a place like Harvard and you get a master's degree from the Harvard Business School.

That guy, whomever, I don't even know if he's still living, but he's a younger person in this. Or he might have died of heart disease and a broken heart, divorced and poor because we decided to ship the factory overseas. We broke the social compact. We did that.

And understand, just remember this, it is the experts who did this. It is the same type of experts that told us six feet to slow the spread, the same types of experts that came in all in the name of an abstraction called free trade, free trade, free trade. On certain things, of course, if we can have reciprocal free trade. But it was a neoliberal abstraction. And what did it get us?

Now, mind you, there is still a baseline 10% tariff. So there are still 10% tariffs across the board. China is still going to have a massive amount of tariffs on them. But for Vietnam and South Korea and Madagascar and Japan, We are seeing a pause. The volatility is not going away anytime soon. I'm not even going to do a play-by-play on the market right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Grant, it's great to see you. Grant, welcome to the program. Grant, what is your take on President Trump's negotiation and leverage that he's using via tariffs? As a businessman, what is your analysis?
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
So Grant, I love that stack the asks. Let's talk more about that in practice. What does that do to the party that is on defense? So how does the Chinese respond to that? Let me ask this differently. What happens, Grant, when you're on the other side of the table and someone is stacking the asks against you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
How do you then prudently respond to somebody that is using that sort of strategy and that kind of expertise?
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
So that is well said. I hope my wife never hears this, by the way. Well, no, I pray no one gets into a divorce, I pray. It's a terrible, awful thing. In some ways, though, metaphorically, we are looking at – it's a great comparison, though, because what U.S. and China are brokering is a little bit of a divorce or a decoupling.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Because the market is so up and so down and so all over the place. It's up and it's down. If I say one thing, it's going to be outdated five minutes from now. It is so volatile. Instead, I want to bring you into the room based on some public reporting and stuff that I've known privately, but I wasn't going to talk about publicly until, of course, it was publicly reported.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
of the way that the two powers have been interacting over the last 20 or 30 years, and we're going to have to renegotiate those terms. Just looking at this objectively, Grant, as a businessman who's done billions and billions of dollars of transactions and has done tens of billions of dollars of value through everything you're doing, who has the cards here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Who is the one that you would say is the shrewd operator that acting as if they have leverage? Kind of stake it out here as an objective third party, Yeah. Like what what cards does the United States have? What cards does the China have? And then kind of give us a little bit of analysis there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
So then how do we, going back to that sequence of your analysis of how big deals happen, how do we make sure that this does not get heightened to a kinetic war or tensions blow up and just get boiling into levels that we don't want to see them happen? How do we make sure this is within guardrails? Explain the balance, Grant, because I'm sure you've had deals that have blown up. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And it has been publicly reported by Jonathan Swan and the New York Times and many people, which is the element of who else got a vote. Now, typically when situations like this occur, the Treasury Secretary gets a vote, the Vice President gets a vote, the President gets a vote, but something else got a vote of whether or not to pause the 90-day tariffs, and that is the bond market.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So let me interrupt you there, Grant. I'm so glad that you mentioned that. I mean, there is no bigger ego than Xi Jinping. He looks at himself as the king of the world, king of China. He's in control of 1.4 billion people. And then you have equal amounts of personas across the board. How then do you navigate with the egos, with the pride of the Chinese culture? How do you go through that thicket?

Very good. So Grant, super quick, just what are you hoping to see as an investor from tax cuts? As we mentioned, it's not breaking news, but the House has passed the budget resolution package, which is great, which will pave the way. What do you want to see more than anything else as a deliverable to full depreciation? What do you think is really going to supercharge this economy?
The Charlie Kirk Show

You loan somebody or something money and they pay you back over a period of several years. So companies issue bonds. Cities famously issue bonds, municipal bonds. In fact, they're tax-free. And most importantly, our own government, the United States government, issues trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars in bonds. Now, they are considered to be the safest investment. Why?

Well, because it's backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. There are four types of bonds. There are treasury bills, otherwise known as T-bills. They're very short-term, and you do not get what is called a coupon. A coupon is basically money back. on your investment in the bond. Then there's something called treasury notes, which are two to 10 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
They do pay interest about every six months. They're very popular with individual investors and institutions. Then we have something called treasury bonds, which mature over 20 to 30 years. They pay interest or a coupon every six months, and they're often used by pension funds or long-term investors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
And then we have TIPS, Treasury Inflated Inflation Protection Securities, which principle adjusts with inflation measured by the Consumer Price Index, CPI, and interest payments rise if inflation rises. Okay. So typically, bonds are a safe refuge during turmoil. If all of a sudden the markets get a little jittery, you go to the bond market.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
When you hear about the federal government running a deficit, the way we finance that deficit is through bonds. The U.S. government sells a treasury bond, which takes in money and now in return for a promise to pay interest over some period of time. There again, as I mentioned, short term and long term treasury bonds. The interest you earn on these bonds fluctuate according to the market.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Well, U.S. Treasury bonds are hugely influential on the entire global market. The United States government has never defaulted on its debt. Traditionally, U.S. bonds are considered the most ultra-safe investment there is. They are the floor of the market. A common idea is this. Never invest in something that is likely to underperform Treasury bonds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
One of the reasons why Scott Besson was selected as treasury secretary is he is a bond expert. He understands the bond market better than anybody else. Scott Besson understands what moves bond prices and what was happening.
The Charlie Kirk Show

From late Tuesday night to early Wednesday morning was a very good 10 year auction, but a disturbing spike in bond prices and a disturbing spike in bond activity, which China was playing their nuclear card, which is what set President Trump off so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
One of the reasons why President Trump said China is not exempt and we're going to unite the entire world against China is China was intentionally trying to create a run on American bonds. China was intentionally, dare I say, playing with the idea of collapsing the American bond market. Bonds have collapsed. The bond market has collapsed more government than howitzers, missiles, or bullets.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Famously, of course, the Russian default, 1998. The Russian government collapsed and they defaulted on $40 billion of domestic debt and devalued the ruble. The yields on short-term Russian treasury bills, otherwise known as GKOs, skyrocketed as investors fled the market. Argentina in 2001 had a sovereign default.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Argentina defaulted on over $100 billion in sovereign debt, the largest default in history at that time. The bond collapse resulted in Argentinian bond prices plummeting and yield spikes over 30%. Capital fled the country and, of course, the peso collapsed. You might remember back in 2010, the Greek Eurozone debt crisis.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Greece revealed that it has been under-reporting its deficit, causing investors to panic and dump Greek government bonds. Greek 10-year bond yields soared past 35%, making it impossible for Greece to borrow on the open market. Greece had to be bailed out by the EU and the IMF under strict austerity terms.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
There's examples after examples of countries that are collapsing because of the mismanagement of their bond market. When countries can't sell bonds, they have to resort to other means of paying their bills, like devaluing their currency and hyperinflation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
And what we were seeing and what we were afraid of on the horizon was a run on the bond market, was potentially the American economic established order very well could have had a financial crisis similar to that of 2020 or 2008. President Trump made a very prudent move and China played their strongest card.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Now understand, Scott Besant said that the 10-year auction was actually very good, which is interesting, which means that people are betting on the long-term viability and the long-term prosperity of of this country. They're happy to say, okay, I'll do a 10 year bet, but a six month bet. I don't know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Basically people are long on America when it comes through over a decade, but in the next three to six months, I'm not so sure because of all these tariffs and tariffs were the forcing function to actually get people to go away from treasury bonds, which is incredibly complicated and somewhat contradictory.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
because typically when the economy is during a moment of jitters, people go to treasury bonds. So it makes it even more complicated. All that to say is that the bond market has a vote. Let's play cut 235.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
into a bad position they they responded they have shown themselves to the world to be the bad actors this is incredibly complicated stuff all this to say the way we finance our government is through a bond a bond note is like an i i owe you note it's an iou that the government can then give to people where it needs to pay back.

The old way of thinking, though, was that we do not question or challenge the offshoring of American labor, of labor internationally. That it's a good thing that China gets wealthier and that we are financing it and we are funding it. And all the right people are speaking out against the Chinese aspect.

Here's John Bolton, who is dreaming of a ground war against Iran, saying the following, play cut 174.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
You know what was illiteracy, John Bolton? The fact that you designed probably one of the most immoral wars in American history, if not the most, when you designed the invasion of a sovereign country of Iraq. That was illiteracy, and that was outright immorality. John Bolton, the neoconservatives don't like this because President Trump is getting more without war.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
He's getting more through economic means than mobilizing aircraft carriers or spending unnecessary trillion dollars on needless wars. But understand what President Trump is doing is so, so brilliant. So we got China on defense. We got the entire free world that is coming to negotiate deals. And meanwhile, where's Pete Hegseth? This is my favorite wrinkle of the entire story. Where is Pete Hegseth?
The Charlie Kirk Show

When you are trying to challenge a rising global power and a rising empire, a rule is that the empire will not care as much about their colonies as they do the homeland. So you go right after the colony to liberate it and bring it back under our hemisphere. What are we talking about? We're talking about the Panama Canal. It is perfect timing. It is 10 out of 10 timing what Pete Hegseth is doing.

Pete Hegseth goes down to the Panama Canal and says, this is not China's. We are going to liberate it. Play cut 179. I want to be very clear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
Look, we know that the Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean. It's an incredible engineering feat and accomplishment. That which thousands of Americans died to actually make possible. 5% of all global maritime trade goes to the Panama Canal. Not having control of the Panama Canal is a major security risk to the Western Hemisphere.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
China's growing influence in Panama through all of their state-owned companies means that they could choke point necessary trade and commerce in our hemisphere. And we know what China does. They operate through economic coercion and dependence. So they take control of the Panama Canal. They then have leverage in our hemisphere.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
And we are kicking the Chinese Communist Party out of the Panama Canal. But it's a perfect time to do it because China's on defense. China is seeing a domestic stock market collapse. China is seeing all of a sudden their number one export partner, the United States of America, is saying, timeout, we're actually not going to do this anymore, 104% tariff, and it's only going to go up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
So China has to prioritize which fight they are going to pick. And at that moment, you strike for the Panama Canal. You strike for the choke point, which is exactly what Pete Hegseth is doing. Saying we're not going to put up with the Chinese Communist Party hegemony over the choke point of trade between the Pacific and the Atlantic. That is not going to happen under President Trump's watch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
China Should Have Read "The Art of the Deal"
And the Chinese are probably like, look, we got nine different fights on here. Fine, let them head to Panama Canal. They're not going to give it up that easily. But the Chinese Communist Party has to triage which of the many problems they're going to fight on right now. And the one that the CCP is most worried about is China.

So I've several questions on that. Just to be clear, though, do we have to give every single illegal alien a court date then? We are not allowed to just pick them up and expel them from our country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
Yeah. If you say the magic words, say open sesame or hocus pocus, you're allowed to stay in the country. Mark, I don't want to I don't want to zero in on this too much. But what you are pointing painting is a rather urgent and dare I say somewhat depressing picture that we're not going to be able to get mass deportations unless Congress fixes the asylum statute.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
All it's going to take is for millions of these people just to say the magic words, and they're going to gum up the works of the judiciary and throw sand in the gears, and we won't get mass deportations. Is that the case?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
It's like the talking points all went out. I've done five campus events at every single one. A kid comes up saying, well, Charlie, every single one of these illegals needs due process and they need a multi-year waiting period. And I thought to myself, I want to know what the law actually says. We're not going to deport anybody under this. At all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
I mean, the left has figured out how to gamify and entrench the entire judiciary. And of course, there is no scrutiny on their way in, but there's scrutiny on the way out. I hope everyone understands how insane this is. No scrutiny on the way in, but there's scrutiny on the way out. That is the current configuration.

Joe Biden's parting gift to us is, oh, yeah, I know you got 10 million new people. Good luck getting them out. We got to fix this, everybody. Congress has to act. They got to act quickly.

Here's the other really important and good thing. The border is sealed, and so we're not adding to the problem. We just have to deal with the incumbent.

You're causing a problem where it's not necessary. We shouldn't divide ourselves. We just should focus on Democrats. What is your response? Because I'm sure you're going to hear that quite a lot.

Why do you think, Eric, out of all of the 20th century quote-unquote heroes that we teach our kids, Bonhoeffer is de-emphasized in academia. It is de-emphasized in our media. Why is Bonhoeffer not as much of a household name as some of the other great titans and heroes of Western civilization? What do you attribute that to?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
So so Attorney General Paxton, what would you also have to say to the objection? But you can't win a general election again. I'm sure you're going to hear this all the time that you're just going to lose this seat and throw it to the Democrats. How would you respond?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
So let's dive deeper into one of these elements here. What do you also have to say to Texans that are worried that you're leaving your attorney general position?

Unfortunately, we've seen a pattern of people that go to the U.S. Senate and they just kind of lose their gusto and their spirit. I don't think we're going to see that from you. But what specifically would you want to see a U.S. senator from Texas do, especially in this next year? What do you want to see the focus be? What do you want to see the agenda specifically if you were to become the U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
So, Ken, I know a lot of our audience wants to support you. What does the campaign look like? When is the primary? What is the process? And how has Senator Cornyn responded?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
So this is going to escalate in a very significant and serious way. Kind of final question here. What would you have to say for those that say that this is going to thwart President Trump's Senate agenda, meaning it puts at risk his agenda in the United States Senate? Could John Cornyn go rogue like a John McCain?

So one of the problems that I think is going to arise is the left suddenly caring about constitutional rights and due process. An objection that I've been receiving on college campuses is, Charlie, you're not allowed to deport any individual unless they get a full court hearing. They get months and months of attorneys briefing them. Is that correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Do You Send 14 Million People Home?
Does every person that has waltzed into this country, all 10 million of them, Do they get attorney representation? Do they get nine month waiting periods? If so, we would we would deport a couple thousand people at that rate. What does the law say?

Hey, the Palisades are gone, but the Grasshoppers... Ironically, the Grasshoppers probably all died too. This is tragic stuff. And the lack of leadership from Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass... We have this piece of tape. We'll play it in a second. Karen Bass doesn't even know how to answer. Did anyone check the water levels? This is not complicated stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
You do not need a PhD in astrophysics to figure this out. Do we have water levels? Do we have firefighters that aren't lesbian by the name of Kristen? Do we have the ability to respond to tragedy? Did we clean up the brush? When you start focusing on the distant and the ideological and you don't. understand the immediate, civilization ends. This is Mayor Karen Bass, who is a DEI mayor.
The Charlie Kirk Show

There's the Santa Ana winds. And for anybody that has landed or tried to land a plane in the Santa Ana winds, you know that it is truly an act of God when that happens. But this is much deeper than that. This is not... an act of God. What you are seeing in California is manmade. What you are seeing in California is not from the heavens. It is a decision. It is a choice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Let's just be very clear. She is a black woman. I'm not sure if she's a lesbian. I don't know if she is or not. Probably not. But she's a black mayor who's there just because of diversity, equity, inclusion. She ran up against Caruso, who's a very well-known developer, very qualified, and she beat her in an incredibly sneaky, suspicious election.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And the mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass, was an organizer for the Marxist Vencerrimos Brigade, who supported Fidel Castro. She visited Cuba eight times as a young woman. Outside of politics, her main job was a community organizer. This is the embodiment of left-wing ideology. This is the manifestation of the woke. You can't put out fires. You've got a black woman mayor in Ghana.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
You've got three lesbian fire chiefs on the name of Kristen. This is peak woke. Placot 125.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
That's the first time I saw that piece of clip. Did she not hear the question? It looks like she was on some sort of plane gate terminal. Is that right? Yeah. Half a billion dollar budget deficit. When these fires broke out, Bass was on a pleasure trip all the way in Ghana, in Africa, to visit the inauguration of the country's new president. That visit was paid for with taxpayer funds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Los Angeles has a budget deficit of almost half a billion dollars. If your city doesn't have a balanced budget, the number of diplomatic trips should go to zero. I live in Phoenix, by the way. I was just talking to a realtor. He said he is getting inundated with calls right now of people from California that say, we're done, we're leaving, we're done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And I do not wish harm on anybody because of their politics. I don't. However, for every person that has advocated, raised money, bundled and donated to Democrats, you are living in the tragedy of your own making.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And you guys were told by The New York Times, The Washington Post, right wing people like Elon Musk and right wing people like Charlie Kirk are making it seem like woke ideologies doesn't harm you. And now you don't have a driveway. And now everything you own is gone. We were fear mongering. We were pouncing. Republicans pounce. We're too divisive. Turns out we were right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
It turns out all of you in this audience were right. It turns out that every single one of us. And I got to be honest, though, there's a lot of American American first and patriots that no longer have homes, too. I know of 15 conservative people, some of which that work on our team that I mentioned yesterday. Their entire home is gone. And again, I do not take delight in anybody's suffering.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
I do not take joy in people's misery. But the Democrat Party has been wanting America to commit suicide over the last decade. And now they don't have a home. And I do feel sorry for them. But I hope some of these Democrats that now everything they own is gone. Look at that. And look, I don't want to overly politicize this. Blake, can you pull up the precinct map of how Pacific Palisades voted?
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Let's just go straight at the third rail of this whole thing. It's 80-20 Democrat. Am I right? Let's get the precinct map. Let's make sure we get it right. I want the New York Times precinct map. No one deserves to suffer because of their politics. However, if you have voted a certain way... This is what you wanted. This used to be a conservative area back in the 1950s.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Eight out of 10 of those houses you're seeing are left-wing Democrats. Eight out of 10. And that's a tragedy. They don't deserve it. They're American citizens. They deserve help. But they advocated for this. They donated to Joe Biden. They raised money for Kamala Harris. And this is why politics matters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
What you are seeing in California is a sequence of decisions. Let's put that B roll up, please, guys, on screen. It is a series of political decisions that have happened over a period of time. This scale of destruction of what we are seeing in Pacific Palisades, what we're seeing in Pasadena, what we're seeing all across Los Angeles County is because of intentional political decisions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And this is why when these pastors and these good-for-nothing people will come up to you, oh, Charlie, I'm tired of politics. Well, if you don't get politics right, you don't have a home. This is 100% a byproduct of your willingness or your unwillingness to engage in the political arena.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And when California in a couple of weeks comes crawling back for federal assistance, Trump should say, listen, I'm not going to give you a dime unless you fire the lesbian Christians. You mandate the proper forest management and stop controlled burns that Newsom has stopped. You cut it out with California's failed diversity, equity, inclusion, homeless spending.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
You require water capture instead of flushing it into the ocean. We're not going to pay for this anymore. This is your own making. When Florida gets hit by a hurricane, FPL, Florida Power and Light, has power coming back in a couple days. They also build their homes in a certain way to be hurricane-proof. California, they're so left-wing. They're so liberal. They're so out of touch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
They're so earth-worshiping. And now entire neighborhoods are gone. It's as if an atomic bomb was dropped. In 2020, Pacific Palisades voted 70% for Joe Biden. So it's 70-30. This looks like Ukraine. Not our own country. Oh, but it's funny you mention that. Because Joe Biden and Senate Republicans have sent a lot of money to Ukraine. A lot. In fact, we spent $250 billion to Ukraine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
This is the current ruling class regime. And just, oh, by the way, didn't you know this? The Los Angeles Fire Department just donated surplus supplies to Ukraine. Don't take my word for it. James Woods, who has become a really good friend, said, hey, the fire truck pulled up to try to put out the fire in front of his home. Turns out there was no water, but there is a lesbian fire chief.

James Woods is an American hero. By the way, he went to MIT. He's brilliant. Let's put that up on screen here. I want you just to see this. No one deserves the tragedy. But they did invite tragedy to their home. This is how the precincts of Palisades and California voted. There is not a single red precinct in sight. Do you see that? There is not a single red. In fact, it's as blue as it gets.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Oh, yeah, sure. We don't care if we have water. Black Lives Matter. Oh, yeah, yeah. We don't care if we don't clean up the brush. Diversity is our strength. Oh, yeah, yeah. We don't care if we have a fire chief that knows how to turn on the fire truck. In this house, we believe.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
These are the same people that were chasing you through the street because you decided to go for a walk in the park without a mask on. That right there is how all of these neighborhoods voted. And I don't take delight in it. In fact, I take sadness when I see this. You should be sad looking at that. Because what you have seen right there is entire neighborhoods commit suicide.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
This is not an act of God. This is the lack of action from man. Number one. The inability or the unwillingness to clean up the brush. Environmentalists say, no, you can't clean up the brush. You might disrupt a local rabbit. There might be a local grasshopper that will get offended. At the root of environmentalism is that human beings do not come first.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
They committed suicide with their vote over a long period of time. And suicide's sad. Suicide is objectively a tragedy. It is not something to celebrate. I'm not rubbing it in their face. I'm not saying, oh, you deserve this. No, you guys decided to slit the throat of your own driveways. And yes, there are a lot of exceptions to people. 20 to 30% of those neighborhoods are people that I know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
As I mentioned, our dear friend, Stacy, her home is just gone. I have other friends. I'm not going to say on air, entire homes gone. Other family, people that I know of family members, entire homes gone, gone. So there's exceptions, but the majority, the vast majority, seven out of 10 of the people in those neighborhoods, they said, bring it on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
The question has always been, when will people in California wake up? We thought it would be when a homeless man is taking a crap in your front yard. Maybe now the wake-up call will be when you don't have a front yard. You know that that sign is the in-house, in this house we believe black lives matter and women's rights are human rights and no human is illegal and science is real.

The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Look, of course, it is a perfect storm and the winds are going the right way. But there's acts of God that happen all the time. We have hurricanes. We have tsunamis. We have earthquakes. And then you use your agency as a human being. And this is not the first fire. We had the 2018 fires. We had the 2020 fires. And they just kind of live in Los Angeles with this sword of Damocles above them.

All right. Joining us now is Steve Hilton. Steve Hilton is Mr. California, great American and great friend. Steve, welcome to the program. I wish it was under better circumstances. Please give us your analysis of what led to this. Our take here on this program is that this is largely preventable and the politics of California got in the way. Steve, your thoughts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And what you are looking right at there on screen, that is not Dresden. That is the Pacific Palisades. Every house is eliminated. I am now up to 15 people that I know personally that have completely lost their homes, lost everything that they own. 15 people. And I could show you some of the pictures and you're seeing it up on screen. Not cleaning up the brush because the environmentalists.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
So, Steve, the tragedy is unspeakable. I don't want to go into any of the detail of that. But you have a whole book here, Calif, Calif failure, reversing the ruin of America's worst run state. Steve is in your political calculus, which I hate going there too quickly. Do you think this could be the beginning of the end of the Democrat monopoly of America's most beautiful state?
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Steve, you know I have a heart for California. The second most time of any state I spend is in California. Arizona, number one. Well, Florida is now rising. But California would be number two. Steve, you should run for office. Think about it. We need new leadership there. Steve, thanks so much.

LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And of course, the biggest one, number two, is the water. Gavin Newsom, who should resign in disgrace for his handling of these fires, has refused to allow the fresh water that comes from the heavens, act of God, to be captured and put in reservoirs to be able to fight the fires. We have videos of firefighters using women's purses to try and put out the fires.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Gavin Newsom actively dismantled four dams. Gavin Newsom went out of his way to dismantle and pick apart four dams in the Los Angeles area. And then, of course, number three, which is that California has been the petri dish. It has been the Wuhan Institute of Virology for the woke mind virus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
California is where all of the diversity, equity, inclusion, critical race theory, LGBTQIA plus ideology has been festering. And it turns out when you need to fight a fire, it doesn't matter if your fire chief is gay, black, lesbian, trans. It matters whether or not you have a capable firefighting force.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And they have intentionally tried to drive out all of the white people from the firefighting force in Los Angeles. Oh, we don't need white men to fight fires. So they have a fish first policy. They have a let's not offend the grasshopper policy. And let's have a bunch of lesbian fire chiefs. Not an exaggeration for the record.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
According to an article that Blake sent last night, I could not believe it. The Los Angeles fire response is run by four lesbians all by the name of Kristen. It's not a joke. There are four lesbians all by the name of Kristen that are running three. I'm sorry, it's three, not four. Three Kristen's that run the Los Angeles fire chief. The fourth lesbian actually has another name.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
This is a local news report months ago. Of them bragging about the new leadership in the fire department and in L.A. County is going to be lesbian, gay, trans. Turns out when you have to fight a fire and you prioritize things that don't matter above things that do matter. Don't be shocked when your city burns to a crisp. Play cut 66.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Was that one of the lesbian Christians running the fire department? So can we, by the way, can we get a collage of all the lesbian Christians? There's three of them. There's four lesbians that are running the L.A. fire department.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
In fact, one of the articles that was published as the fires were raging from Pride magazine amid Palisades fire, Los Angeles first LGBTQ plus fire chief is proving lesbians get it done. Firefighters are currently trying to stop the Pacific Palisades area fire led by lesbian fire chief Kristen Crowley. Let's keep that up on screen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
I actually think Democrats believe that lesbians or gays have like some sort of magical superpower to stop fires. Like, is there some sort of innate mystical quality that those three Kristen lesbians have? Again, I don't care if they're lesbian or gay or straight, if they're capable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
But it's obvious you don't get three Kristens by the name of that are lesbian to run a fire department unless you're prioritizing things that don't matter. So, again, this is not a joke. This is who is running your fire response. Zero percent contained in the Palisades. Zero percent contained in Pasadena.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
And this is exactly what Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, and they cut the fire budget in Los Angeles by $23 million. The Los Angeles fire budget was cut and hundreds of hydrants were stolen for scrap before the fires. The homeless get more money than the fire department. And the fire department that does get money is you got the finest fighting force in
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
that the lesbian community, I suppose, can put forward. And nothing against lesbians that want to fight fires. Have at it. Apparently, you're not very good at it. Okay? Because you were promoted for a reason that you should not be there. So you have this kind of perfect storm of wokeism, and that is what you're seeing. Let's see more B-roll, by the way, of all the burning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
What you are seeing right there is a perfect storm of wokeism. We can't take the water because of the Delta smelt. We can't clean up the brush because of the grasshoppers. We can't... Put out the fire because guess what? When you start to prioritize diversity and sexuality over merit, things tend to not go well. This is exactly what we have been warning about as conservatives.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
For as conservatives, we've been warning about this for years. Hey, when a tragedy strikes, it doesn't matter how many diversity points you have. Remember Pete Buttigieg trying to figure out the flight crisis, that disaster? What is the response from Gavin Newsom? The same thing that they'll say any time that there is a police killing. Ooh, systemic racism. They just say climate change.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Define the term, Gavin Newsom. Define the term. What do you mean by climate change exactly? Was it climate change that put the trio of lesbian Christians in charge of the fire department? Was it climate change that decided not to capture the water and put it into a reservoir? Was it climate change? that decided not to clean up the brush, or no, instead it was the opposite.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
It was the cult of earth-worshiping environmentalism. Your ideology is why your people are suffering. This is a choice. This is not an act of God. It is an act of man. And Gavin Newsom, you better preserve your documents. Because I sure hope that Pam Bondi and President Trump open a robust criminal investigation into Gavin Newsom and Mayor Bass.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Because in 10 days and 23 hours, you might be facing a very serious federal criminal investigation because you deserve it. This is beyond gross negligence.

Instead of cleaning the forest floors and removing dead trees, capturing rain runoff, and making sure California has water in fire hydrants, Democrat politicians will instead deflect responsibility and blame climate change.

This magical blame shifting allows them to avoid accountability for their incompetence and mismanagement while wielding tyrannical power over voters, harassing them for cooking on gas stoves, forcing them to drive electric vehicles and charging them a carbon tax for simply living. Human lives are not improved by this. They are destroyed. Cities lie in actual rubble.

And taxpayers and insurance policy holders are on the country or on the hook to clean up their failed far left dystopian disaster. And I'm not joking.

You can't clean up the trees or the brush. Everybody in L.A. knows it, but because you might upset the natural habitat of the grasshoppers. Donald Trump is running on America first and Americans first. The Democrats run on Delta smelt first and grasshoppers first. It is tempting to want to implement diversity, equity, inclusion. Oh, we must be very equitable.

However, when there's just a little stress test, things start to fall apart. In 10 days and 23 hours, President Trump becomes president. Just imagine how unfit our military is right now.

is a microcosm of a larger cancer and a tumor that President Trump is going to have to take a scalpel and remove. Environmentalists have weaponized the Endangered Species Act. They basically invent subspecies that are actually part of a much more common one so they can justify blocking development. Environmentalists are earth worshippers. They're inherently anti-progress, anti-growth.
The Charlie Kirk Show

They're inherently against human flourishing. To them, this fire is just... Karma for all of modernity's development against them. Just the other day, the New York Times admitted that the snail darter wasn't even a real species, and it blocked development for years. The New York Times wrote, this tiny fish mistaken identity halted a dam's construction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
LA’s Lesbian Firefighters To the Rescue!
Scientists say the snail darter, whose endangered species status delayed the building of a dam in Tennessee, is a genetic match of a different fish. So they just invent subspecies to prevent development. I want to hear from you, freedom at charliekirk.com. There needs to start to be investigations of public officials.

If Eric Adams, the mayor of New York, is under multiple federal indictments for taking free flights on Turkish airlines, it's not too much to say that Karen Bass, the mayor of Los Angeles, should face federal charges for letting her city burn. They tried to put Donald Trump in prison for paying some business expense. I think Karen Bass can face federal charges.

Oh, I have. It traumatized me for a day, but I have sufficiently recovered.

So how does that apply in our politics? Give us more and more examples of how that manifests in our politics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
like being able to clean up the brush to make sure that fires do not consume your entire city. What is happening right now in California is apocalyptic. I now know of six people personally, not like one-off, six people personally of homes I have visited that are now gone, that are just gone, gone. One of our team members, who many of you know, Stacy, her house is just gone. Got her family out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
So how then do we fight back against suicidal empathy? And it seems more applicable. The West decided to not commit suicide politically this last November, and we've actually decided to choose life. Your thoughts, Professor?
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
Yeah, and so how then do we fight it? I mean, I know you have an upcoming book around these kind of themes. What are the one, two, three bullet points? Because if there was a through line as to why the West is collapsing, suicidal empathy could be one of the main reasons why.
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
Do you have any idea of an author or a thinker as to where this came from? If there was a culprit, where the first or second initiation points for where this originated?
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
Praise God. I think they had to leave a pet behind. Just terrible. Gone. Another one of our great donors, who we actually have the interior of one of our buildings named after, her entire house is gone. Gone. Another one of our friends in the Palisades, whole house is gone. This is some of the worst fires we've ever seen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
So let's try to contemporize this. We're seeing right now what's happening with the United Kingdom grooming gangs. You're not allowed to speak out against Islamic rape gangs in the United Kingdom because you might offend the Mohammedans, that the Mohammedans might sue you in court and the Mohammedans might come after you. Is this an example of suicidal empathy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
California Burns While Its Leaders Vanish
Dr. Saad, I want to also just speak more broadly about how the West is starting to push back against it. Are you seeing more and more of a movement for people to be – let's just say – I suppose that actually is a better question. What is the opposite of suicidal empathy?

It's bad for everybody. And when they have these billions of tons of rainwater, why can't they capture them, as Peachy said, and put them in a reservoir?

Peachy, I don't want to overly politicize this, but honestly, we have to because it's a one-party rule. The state government is controlled by Democrats.

I think the mayor just took a charter flight to Ghana. The mayor of Los Angeles is in Ghana right now.

That will undermine the one real check against drug companies and ban the very market based incentives that help employers and families save on prescriptions and health care costs. Even worse, Big Pharma wants to strip American employers of the freedom to choose health benefits that work best for them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Their proposals could hand Big Pharma a $32 billion money grab at the expense of American employers and families. Conservatives for lower health care costs warns that big pharma isn't on our side. They fought against solutions to lower drug prices during Trump's first term, opposed Bobby Kennedy's nomination to HHS to make America healthy again.

I think I have it right here. Yeah, here it is. So I want to, we talked about how Democrats struggle to survive in longer form podcasting where there is not scripting or teleprompters. Let's play cut 180.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Democrats cannot survive in long-form podcasting environments. Why? It's too unscripted. It's too masculine, honestly. And the Democrat Party's become too feminine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
To go into the wilderness with no rules and duel it out and see who's better or who's stronger. No, seriously. Democrats can't. We don't do it. You're right. For whatever reason, don't do it. You can laugh, but who in the Democrat Party— We're not. You're right. We'll go. I mean, maybe Bernie Sanders, but he only- RFK when he was a Democrat. Bobby, who's now HHS.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
But there's something to be said that if you want to earn the respect of forgotten America, you have to show them that you can intellectually joust with no script, no hard breaks- No producers in the ears, no teleprompters. That's where new media is going. Now, I will only challenge one thing you say. I am reaching new audiences. I'm not talking to my bubble.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You know, J.D. Vance has cited Curtis Yarvin as, you know, a reference point. We've had Curtis on our program. So, yeah, we're doing four Curtis books over the next four years. This is the first. I also have for you H.P. Lovecraft short stories with some great new art. And then one of my favorites is Always With Honor comic book.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Because our content is so appealing, it goes in a decentralized way. And it's not just political. No, it's not political. But again, our conversation here is going to go far and wide. A lot of people are going to see it. A lot of people are going to consume it. Because it's also politics and entertainment have... begun to overlap, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And the old adage is, well, politics is downstream from culture. I think politics and culture are indecipherable from one another now. Donald Trump became a cultural phenomenon, right? You go in to, you know, inner city Compton, you'll see guys with Trump shirts with, you know, the hand up, you know, fight, fight, fight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So what Democrats are doing is you're still playing in a very old, hyper-sanitized media environment. And my advice is you've got to go where it's unpredictable, where it's treacherous, where it's dangerous. What do you think about the masculine element of that? Basically, Gavin was like, well, what is masculinity, is what he was asking. Well, I'm sure Gavin would ask that question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I'm sure it's very difficult for him to come up with a coherent definition of masculinity. It's not something probably that is often modeled in the kind of places that he hangs out and among the kind of people he hangs out with. I think the general point is a really important one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And this idea of having conversations that are totally unscripted, that are removed from familiar talking points, is something that the right has come to dominate. And what this reflects to me is a willingness to go after the truth. There isn't some target that we're aiming at. We don't know necessarily where we're aiming at.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Our only lodestar is what is true, what is good, and being willing to follow that wherever it may lead. Perhaps this is something that just comes about when you're in a position of sort of cultural subordination. So the right was kind of on the outside for a long time. And we had to sort of explore the wilderness. The left used to be able to do this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They became culturally dominant, no longer can do it. And why can't the left do it? Because there are certain true things that are in direct contradiction with what the left needs to believe in order to sustain its ideological agenda. And so the moment they let themselves off the leash and start exploring some of these ideas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They're going to run into, you know, these what we call thought terminating cliches. They're just going to have to stop themselves and retreat back into their talking points. And look, if I didn't believe that just following the truth would lead to the political preferences that I have, then I wouldn't be on the right. I'd be on the left.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
It's because I believe that just following the truth naturally will lead to the kinds of things I believe in and the kinds of things I want to see happen that I'm willing to do it. And I don't think the left is. And the to the masculine feminine issue, they there is one of the more masculine things that one can do is to go where there is uncertainty and to go up against opposition in some ways.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And I was getting at it. It is a it is a intellectual, nonviolent way to do a UFC fight. Right. I mean, it is like we're going to see who wins. We're going to see who's better. We're going to see who's tougher. Where I don't know the feminine ways you both submit op eds or something. Well, no. Yeah. So this is something I've actually written about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I wrote a essay for First Things called What is the Longhouse? And the premise of this essay was to suggest that our current arrangement, at least in official capacities to negotiate over ideas, took on a kind of feminine nature. And what that means is the goal is to reach consensus. The goal is to prevent anyone from getting their feelings hurt. The goal is to prevent offense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
A more masculine way of arguing is to pursue truth. Oftentimes, if the pursuit, if our aim is to find out what is true, we are going to come into conflict with each other. It is going to be necessarily combative. It is entirely anathema to the notion of consensus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And so where these two paths diverge, where the masculine and feminine diverge, is either you're aimed at truth or you're aimed at consensus. Let's play another tape here. I could not agree more. I want to play an element. that we discussed with Gavin Newsom about how the race politics are in our schools, race hate in our schools, if you will. And I know you could talk at length about this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Always With Honor is the memoir of the great white army general from the Russian Civil War, Peter Rangel. What side was he on? The bullshit? No, no, no. Peter was our General Rangel was our great white army hero who, despite the odds and despite everything coming against him, was one of the few people in that conflict who maintained his sense of integrity and fought valiantly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Uh, let's play cut one 78 to make an eight year old feel like their race. This is absurd, but, But the governor, with all due respect, that's happening right now in California public schools. And I'm not trying to drill you on it. I'm just being honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You could say that, but maybe you should convene a special session and say no more race-based teaching against white people in the schools of California or Asians. I'm just saying, though, that this is not a conjecture. It's not a hypothetical. It is embedded into the DNA of the Democrat Party. Is that correct? Okay, now this is where Gavin Newsom is at his slipperiest, in my view.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
He knows exactly what's going on. And he was kind of playing like, oh, I don't know what's going on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
That AB 101. I wish I would have had that armed with that. So yeah, AB 101 is a skeleton key, one among many, that kind of unlocks precisely what's going on in California. And at Gavin Newsom's lead, he signed this bill. It's not like he's ignorant of what's going on. AB 101 mandates, mandates that all high school kids take a DEI semester in their classes, just as they would take econ or civics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They now have to take a DEI class. He signed this in 2020. This goes into effect in 2024-25. At the risk of repeating myself, this is all you need to see and read about to know where Gavin Newsom's heart is at or where his lack of spine is at. He may actually want to not have these things in place. I don't think he has any core beliefs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I think it's the most transactional. That was my impression. I mean, which in some ways is the most dangerous of all. It's very dangerous because he can kind of shapeshift according to whatever's most expedient in the moment. But, you know, he has a track record.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And so all we got to do is point to that track record and say, wait a minute, you're saying X. But clearly what you actually believe or are willing to do is the exact opposite of X. And he'll have no way to really reconcile that except to just kind of dissemble and, you know, smile on camera, which, you know, may be appealing to a certain amount of people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
But I think most voters and most people on our side who, you know, might be looking at Gavin Newsom as someone they could convert to, I really hope not, please. That is not going to make anybody's life better. But they'll see through that. I really think the American voters are smarter than that. And they see through that kind of transparent sort of political actor type behavior. I hope so.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
This was another interesting piece of tape here about how Democrats have a purification process to constantly be kicking people out of their party that don't agree with them or in their intellectual circles. You see this at the academy. Let's play cut 177. Any Democrats you admire out there right now? Democrats I respect. Bobby Kennedy I respect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
tulsi gabbard why are you laughing why are you smiling because like they're on our team now because you guys kicked out like your best people it's like the people that were into this is a great point though governor is that bobby kennedy was a heterodox opinion on a thing that a lot of people were concerned about get him out. He's an anti-vaxxer. Tulsi Gabbard, who is anti-war, get her out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
She's a Russian agent. You guys see how you have an unhealthy purification process where eventually you're left with just a 31% approval rating and a bunch of people that are talking to each other. And meanwhile, we're the ones that have Democrats in our cabinet winning the electoral majority vote because there needs to be said we're
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
If Democrats are serious about being a majority party ever again, look at that ideological diversity. We have people that, you know, geez, they want to go to war with every country that says something bad against us. And then we have people that are far more dovish, you know, like Rand Paul. But that is a better, more, dare I say, diverse picture. You could say diversity is our strength.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I'll look at you. Lomas, your thoughts. OK, yeah. I mean, look, this is part of the natural what I'd call sort of liberal leftist life cycle. These things go in circles. And so, you know, you had the sort of paroxysms of the 60s in this first big wave, not the first big wave, but.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And despite the fact that, of course, as we all know, the Bolsheviks won, he managed to save hundreds of thousands of lives and getting his fellow countrymen to say he was on the czar's side. Is that right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
In modern times, post-war era, this first big wave of sort of leftist excess, it peters out and that leads into, you know, the malaise of the 70s and then into Reagan. You have the political correctness craze of the 90s. And now we have this 2010s thing happening and it's coming to an end. And any time this cycle comes to an end. Leftism kind of exhausts its revolutionary spirit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
It becomes ossified. And this gets back to our point about podcasting. It's unable to take in new ideas, novel ideas, ideas that might actually deviate from the hard party line. This wave of liberal excess is at the end. And I think Gavin Newsom is sort of just clinging to it by a thread, hoping he might be able to revive it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
you know the hope and change spirit of obama but frankly it's dead it's a dead cycle and they're going to have to find something new and they don't know how to do that and you can see with newsome here his only ideas are to just take what's working from us okay so now he's just going to be anti-dei you saw this by the way in the election too all of kamala harris's most popular ideas are just stuff she stole from trump okay like no taxes on tipping for example
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So they're completely out of ideas. I think they need to now go into the wilderness and rediscover what it means to be on the left. And in the meantime, and I think this is where we have a real opportunity, conservatism has had this bad habit of kind of letting this sort of restart every 10 years or so. Totally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Letting these people back in, tolerating really bad ideas, not standing up for themselves, not asserting their right to rule. No, we want them to remain in the wilderness. That's right. And it's time for the right to assert its right to rule. It is okay to be in charge of the culture. The right has a hard time doing this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I'm not as familiar with the Russian Civil War. Yeah, well, it's a really fascinating story that is becoming, unfortunately, increasingly relevant to our own time. Now, I think this election, we probably forestalled the worst outcomes and replaying the devastating and sort of catastrophic events of the Russian Civil War. But I think the takeaway lesson is not so much the historical analog, but
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They feel maybe like it's imposter syndrome, like we can't be in charge of what happens in Hollywood. We can't be in charge of the kind of shows our kids watch. But no, you can actually. You just have to have the courage of your convictions. And so If there's anything I could encourage the right to do in this moment is don't shy away from this moment of potentiality in front of us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Seize it with two hands and assert your right to rule. Why refi? If you are a private student loan borrower, listen carefully. Private student loan debt totals over $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. Why refi does not care what your credit score is. You can finally take control of your student loan situation with a plan that works for your monthly budget.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Let's face it. If you have distressed or defaulted private student loans, nobody is coming to bail you out. You can even skip a payment every six months up to 12 times without penalty. Just call 888-YREFI34 or log on to YREFI.com. That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com, YREFI.com. You can even skip a payment every six months up to 12 times that penalty. This may not be available in all 50 states.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So go to YREFI.com, Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Can you imagine being debt-free and not living under this burden anymore? Be unburdened by what has been. Great company. They're highly ethical. I can vouch for them. Again, they're at our office a lot. We're meeting them a lot of different stuff. They support Turning Point USA. They are mission aligned.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So if you have private student loan debt, have them help you at YRefi.com. Y-R-E-F-I.com. Please plug all Passage Press again. And thank you for the books. Absolutely, man. Yeah. Please go to Passage.Press. That's our publishing house. We have a number of titles on there that I think would be really interesting to your readership.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You know, I want to say something, too, about these young people we've been talking about and how they're. mental landscape has just kind of been bombed out and scraped away, and they need to fill it with new good ideas. Old stuff as well as new stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And so what we're trying to do with Passage is sort of reaccumulate, re-aggregate a kind of canon for young, intellectually curious people to make better sense of their world. And so this is a long collection of new philosophers, intellectuals on our scene. We have great books coming out from You know, Charles Cornish Dale writing about masculinity, writing about what's happened with masculinity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
We have Paul Gottfried, a great writer who was a longtime prominent right wing intellectual. Curtis Yarvin, Steve Saylor. Steve's my favorite. You guys did Noticing, didn't you? Oh, yes. I have that on my bed stand. Oh, that's beautiful to hear. Steve's a remarkable guy. We have his audio book coming out soon. So anybody who reads audio books, that'll be available.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So here's an interesting little moment here where Gavin Newsom is trying to maybe be a little economically populist. I don't think he's doing a very good job of it considering he basically oversees the oligarchy. But let's play cut 184. Listen carefully. Look, the number one thing, which I know you're going to agree with, and I'm sure you'll have a super slick response, right? Not slick.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
That's about half true. Which is the cost of housing. Average home in California, $850,000.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
But that was interesting to me. I think that is. But again, that's not a majority of house purchasing. About one in four houses are bought by private equity. Would you agree to say that BlackRock should not be able to own homes in California?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You should propose a bill in the California state house.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
A $10 trillion fund shouldn't be able to come in and buy homes. But it's not just BlackRock specifically. I mean, it's what's happening in this space. It's the idea of mass... Mass asset managers that have $50 billion asset under management are now competing against our college grad from Cal State Fullerton. So with a couple minutes, I could see your facial wreck. There's a lot there. Please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
How, as a man, as an honorable person with some influence, you are required to behave during times of great stress and when people are looking to you in periods of chaos to restore some order to the polity. And it is always with honor. Always with honor. So I sat down with Gavin Newsom yesterday. Now, do you live in California? I don't anymore.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Okay. So, you know, again, this just betrays what's actually happening in California. Listen, if you're a young guy, you know, you're starting out a family and you want to live in California, which, by the way, is a beautiful place. And California is... Filled with a lot of conservatives and red-leaning people, and I really don't want people to abandon California.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
It really should be the crown jewel of the American empire, and it will be again, okay? But for the time being, Gavin Newsom is ruining it, and one way he's ruining it is by eliminating the possibility for a middle class to thrive there. You either can afford to live in a rundown neighborhood full of homeless people and criminals with schools that are going to destroy the minds of your children.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
OK, I know that sounds like hyperbole, but it's the truth. Or you're a millionaire and you can live in a comfortable beachside. You're an oligarch. And be completely insulated from the rest of the problems of the state and kind of merrily go along your way, pretending as if everything is fine. It's not fine. The middle class are getting devastated in California.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And again, the proof is in the pudding. People are fleeing the state. Middle class Californians are leaving. They are in some number being replaced by foreigners coming in. But the middle class domestic out migration from California is as big now as it has ever been in the history of the state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And what can if you were to give advice to the American right more broadly, because you said something, we need to have the intestinal fortitude in spine that it's OK to rule. Yeah, it's OK to govern. What does that look like? One minute.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You know, governors of states take back control of your education system. This is the biggest one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
We're so afraid to do this. It's not hard. You can do this. You can put your own university presidents in place who are going to return these institutions to the function they were built for. And why they don't do this is kind of beyond me. And I think they're nervous. I think also they're unfamiliar with things like public education, with things like education. They're very good with business.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They're very good with tax rates. And that's great. They shouldn't deviate from that. But they can walk and chew gum at the same time. And it's simply finding the right people, finding people who are from those institutions, who are aligned, who can help facilitate retaking control of them. Lomaz, you're great. You're welcome anytime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And they try to dox you, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
The Charlie Kirk Show

That's right. Did you see Steak and Shake was quoting Nietzsche the other day? No. Did you see that? We're in the new timeline, man. Anything's possible now. Actually, I got to pull this up here. I know you'd appreciate it because you're smart. Yeah. Steak and Shake tweets, quote, he who has a why to live can bear almost any how. Steak Shake tweeted that out. What means? Exactly.

The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So I fled along with hundreds of thousands of other Californians around 2020. COVID was the catalyst for a lot of people to leave California, but it was going to happen one way or the other. The trends were already in motion. California had become a place that was hostile to middle class families. And my wife and I, we had started our family.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Our oldest son was starting school and we had to get out because this is not a place where you can raise a family on a middle class income. And a lot of that, frankly, is because of some of the policies that either Gavin Newsom was responsible for authoring or enabling. And so this is something that I think, as Gavin Newsom very clearly seems to be making a play for 2028.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
A little bit. We have to remember what he did to the state of California. And despite everything he might say to try to pivot to the center and make peace with some of the radicals on his side, he ruined California in a lot of ways. And I think it's how would you say he did that? I completely agree. Well, so firstly, the proof is in the pudding.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
OK, as I was saying, net out migration from California really started to accelerate. The moment Gavin Newsom came into office in 2019, you started to see hundreds of thousands of people flee the state, especially, again, middle class families. And it's some combination of crime, homelessness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You have this kind of radical leftist cultural agenda that's infecting the schools and that was enabled by Gavin Newsom. And I don't know if it was brought up in your interview, but I would encourage people, for example, to look up AB 101. AB 101 was an education bill that got put before Newsom in 2020, which he signed, which mandates DEI education for all California high schoolers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
OK, a semester of DEI education for high schoolers. So all he might say about his sort of animosity or, you know, certain hesitation he might have about pursuing some of this DEI agenda was, Well, he didn't really act on that, okay? And he signed this bill into law, and now starting in 2024-25, this year, all high school kids have to take DEI classes. Okay, so you have homelessness, crime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
You have the cultural degradation. You also have a state that doesn't work financially. Housing is incredibly expensive. Part of that is the demand for housing, but part of that are these onerous regulations that are imposed not just on business owners but on anybody who wants to build anything. It's just a state that is hostile to people. to ordinary people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
It's very friendly to criminals and homeless, but it's hostile to ordinary people. It's also very nice if you're very wealthy. So you can find a nice strip along the beach all the way down the coast. It's very comfortable if you can afford that. But for ordinary people, it's just not a good place to live. I think you'll get a kick out of this piece of tape here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
This is about the University of California higher education system, the UC system. And Gavin Newsom, I say something, he doesn't even know what they're teaching. It's a little bit of a fun moment. Play cut 190. Also, half the kids that graduate college will not even end up using their degree when it comes to the affiliated job. So the numbers are true at the highest income.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So about 10% of kids that go to college stretch out the averages to be really, really high. Got it. And so, for example, you go to Caltech to study computer engineering and applied AI. Next level. You're crushing it, right? You go to Cal to go study North African lesbian poetry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I know. It should be like, no way. But if the fact it's a maybe, we got some problems.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
It's just the taxpayer shouldn't have to fund it. Your reaction to that? You know, I think Gavin Newsom, first of all, what that reflects is he has no idea what's going on in his state. OK, I almost like fell for it. Like, yeah, you know, I wouldn't be surprised was the thing. So, you know, I have some experience with this. I taught in the UC system for 10 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I was a lecturer in the English department at UC Irvine. I spent a lot of time with undergrads. And so I want to say a couple things here because I have some insight onto this as someone who was inside of it for a long time. You're right. There's a dichotomy. The 10 percent of the institution of higher ed in California, really anywhere across the country, is still doing really great stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They're producing knowledge. They are teaching kids how to work with. technology that they're going to need for successful and useful lives, useful careers. But the 90% of it is just a waste of time and money. These kids don't know anything. They don't learn anything. The professors don't care to teach them anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
The university has failed at its two basic functions, which is either to produce knowledge or to preserve knowledge. It no longer does either. And it's especially the latter that is a real problem. I love that. I've never heard anyone say it that crisp. So, yeah, preserving knowledge, preserving our intellectual and cultural heritage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Not only have they neglected to do that, there has been an active effort to erase that intellectual and cultural heritage. And so I think, you know, if you really get into sort of granular details of it, there's all sorts of room for plausible deniability. Someone like Gavin Newsom can say, well, that's just some one off crazy thing. It's not reflective of the entire institution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
But I will tell you, as someone who spent a lot of time with these kids, they are not coming out any better than they came in and in fact are coming out a lot worse. And of course, then in tons of debt, too. So they're saddled with this tremendous debt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And they haven't improved what we call their human capital, their ability to actually perform in the workplace and make good use of their lives and skills and talents.

The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Part of it starts with high school and K through 12. And so these kids come into school. They come into their undergrad class. I used to teach a number of different classes. One I used to teach was on conspiracy theories. We would talk about conspiracy theories and sort of the rhetoric and arguments involved in conspiracy theories. And I would start with 9-11. And from 9-11, we'd go to JFK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And over time, I started teaching about 2010. Over time, what I started to find was they didn't know what these things were. I mean, now part of this was a huge percentage of my students at UC Irvine were international students, over 20% at one point. So they had no real connection to our cultural history. But even the American kids, they didn't know who JFK was.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They didn't know these basic facts about history. Wait, hold on. This isn't UC Irvine. This isn't UC Irvine. So you'd say that kids would come to UC Irvine and not know who JFK was? They'd have some vague idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They might have heard the name, but tying that to a specific period in history or tying it to a specific assassination and the context around that and things like Vietnam and the Cold War was totally absent from their mental framework.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And so what I ended up doing for a large part of my classes, especially for first year students, was basically teaching them Wikipedia level history, basic American history. And so, you know, and it's not their fault, by the way. This is not something these kids did to themselves. This is because of neglect from our educational institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
And a lot of this comes out of the educational graduate programs that determine curriculums for statewide schools. There's also, again, just this sense that. Over time, our powers that be have decided that it's better for us to sort of start from scratch, again, to sever our connection from our intellectual and cultural history and replace it with something else.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
This has been going on basically since, you know, the political correctness period of the 90s, probably even before that. But it really accelerated in the 2000s and in the Obama years. And this has a drastic effect on the students when they come in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So by the time they get to college, they're not ready to absorb and get anything out of the material that perhaps you and I got in college and certainly from generations before got out of college. They're playing catch up all the way through. And then you add that to the fact that their instructors and the people who now run the colleges are almost exclusively one dimensional ideologues.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
I mean, across the board. It is very rare, and someone like me, I just kind of sit in the back and keep my mouth shut. I don't say anything. There's nobody to the right of Barack Obama circa 2008. That's about as far right as you're going to get. And so this one-dimensional ideological trajectory – doesn't produce any kind of education per se. What it is is ideological instruction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
They are trying to impose their beliefs and political agenda on these students. And anybody who deviates from that even a little bit learns very early on there's consequences for it. So, you know, if I want to get a good grade, I just repeat back to my teacher what they want. That's exactly right. And so what should a college be in the ideal college means partnership in the original Greek.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
So, you know, I have my own view of what college should be. It may not match up with everyone else's. I don't think that college needs to be a place where it becomes the default next step for every kid who graduates from high school. I think it's great if people want to pursue a higher education. They absolutely should.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Yeah. You publish books amongst other things, right? That's right. So tell us about... Some of these great gifts you've just given. OK, so I got you three books. These were on my shelf. This is Gray Mirror from Curtis Yarvin, Fascicles. Curtis Yarvin, as you know, as people are finding out, is a kind of intellectual, you know, forebearer to some of these new trends in right wing thought.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
But we should construct a system where kids are given an opportunity that doesn't reflect on their value or moral worth, where they can be funneled into vocational training or even like very high end career paths. You don't need college. You can get the training you need just going by, you know, being an apprentice at a law firm even. And I think AI is going to change a lot of this, by the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
Yeah. So I want to play that tape, actually. Let's play cut 176. Are you arguing for the disestablishment, the end of higher education? I think it's going to happen no matter what. I mean, in 10 years, artificial intelligence is going to change everything. And I don't know what these four-year degrees are actually doing to prepare these kids for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Gavin Newsom Ruined California ft. Lomez
But as far as like I'm not I mean, my advocating for the end of the pursuit of learning, of course not. That's one of my big critiques is that at a lot of these schools, they're not pursuing what is good, true and beautiful. It's become the oppression Olympics and a weaponized complaint seminar of people sitting in the circle and finding out who's the who's been offended the most that day.

He says, you guys are book banners.

FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
So he brought that one right out of his back pocket and he decided to deploy it. And this is how I've always wanted Republicans to reply to the book banning issue. If I may say so myself, I thought I did very well on this. We actually did zero prep on this. You know, we were prepping for all the different types of things that could be brought up. We did not bring up a book banning.

So that's a book ban.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
That was the Moms for Liberty contention. Time out. Like, I agree on Bill O'Reilly. The Moms for Liberty movement that you made a big thing of was just no porn to 10-year-olds. We agree. So those books should be banned. So what we should do right now is every California school that has porn in their library should be kicked out.

FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
Anything that comes to – this is kind of how it works, so we'll go through a lot of the tape. I thought I did fine. The team thought I did well, and you guys will be the judge. Anything that has to do with California – It gets into basically a shouting match. And it's like, you don't understand. I know better than you. We're doing all these superfluous community committees.

Well, I wouldn't say the Song of Solomon is porn.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I don't think that's fair at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
But no, I mean, again, the Song of Solomon is rather risque. But what we're talking about in these books is not just the words, it's also the images. And again, your audience can look at the images themselves. It's highly graphic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
But why do you think moms are doing that? Do you think it's because they want to have mind control or do you think that they have come across incident of incident of highly provocative material?
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
But for, but let me just, you know, kind of complete the point is that it's easy to just call it kind of a book ban, but when you actually have to read some of these books, it will take your breath away of some of this stuff, right? You're like, okay, you know, we're teaching a 10 year old how to put a condom on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
This is the exercise of politics though. The exercise of politics is the highest form of community because it blends morality and sociability. So what we do is we have discussion and elections, and we have boards and commissions, right? And we as a people say, okay, no porn for 10-year-olds. And that's politics, right?

Of images that are very violating to young kids.

FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
If you want to learn, Governor, and I'm happy that there is a movement of moms that is not, that's growing, where they feel as if our kids are being hyper-sexualized. And I agree with them that they have to hear topics. Social media? Well, both in the social media and the classroom. So that's how you handle, in my opinion, the book banning issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And look, Governor Newsom said, I don't want to go any more forward on this. Because it's very easy to say book ban, book ban, book ban when you frame it as what it is, which is a common sense just kicking out of pornography in our schools. And him mentioning the Bible is just so ridiculous. The only reason I did not get indignant...
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
is that there are some portions of the Song of Solomon that are risque. I wouldn't say it's pornography, but the issue has always been visual images for 8-, 9-, and 10-year-olds that are so violating, not longer holy texts that may or may not be read to kids, which I think is just such an outrageous example for him to try to bring in there. But he was starting to lose and then comes back in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
We don't want to talk about that anymore. Also, they call them book bans when it's just, why are we teaching this book? Why is this book in the library for fifth graders? That is not a ban. It is not a ban. It's maybe a ban on pornography, which we can all agree with. So here is another lengthy clip that I want to play.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And it just kind of gets deadlocked into a draw. It gets hyper emotional on anything related to a specific of California. The premise was that Governor Newsom wanted to have me on his program to learn from me and MAGA faithful as to why they are getting their tail kicked. And we went into it. We went into homelessness. We went into school closures.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And now before I get into it, I knew the details dangerously enough on this topic. However, this is where Gavin Newsom is his most slippery and his most shifty and the most clever. Anything to do with a detail in California, he will argue from authority, get hyper aggressive, talk over you and say, you don't know you're not from here. This is the most radical trans bill in the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
Without a doubt, essentially, as it is written, a teacher cannot be fired. If they do not tell parents that their kid is transitioning at school, is taking hormones at school or is calling him or herself vice versa sex. There are other elements of this bill that I was not able to recall. I'll be perfectly honest with you. Candidly, right there on the spot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I have a good memory, but it was just there's so much kind of going on there. The question is, who has sovereignty over our kids? We never got really into that. But anything to do with California, Gavin Newsom will rise up. You don't understand. He does this thing with the hands. Let me tell you what's really in the bill. That's not what it is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And I even doubled or tripled down on even the extreme example because, yes, I think a teacher should 100% be fired if the teacher does not tell a parent that their kid is transitioning. Of course I do, even though that is the more radical extremist interpretation of this bill. So it's just one example of how he –
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
reacts to anything to do with California it's also very good for anyone who might be dialoguing with Gavin in the future anyone that might be debating against him in the future when it comes to California not only do you need to know your stuff you have to be willing to get into the trenches because he'll just try to bring you down right into the gutter on the issue muddy it up get into the weeds
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
It's a very effective debate tactic. Is it rooted in truth? Of course not. Play cut 194. You signed a law where school districts can't even tell parents if their kids are trans. Not true. Okay, then.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
Let me tell you the other way to say this, that a teacher, of course, should be fired if you don't notify a parent of what's happening to their kid. Of course, they should be terminated for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
should have said something because they're talking about two different things what you're but there of course should be a penalty measure whether it be termination or whatever if a teacher withholds information from a parent because what you're saying is that there's no way to hold them accountable you're saying you're accountable to what though accountable to two kids talking about the fact that this is a talking about subject matter all of a sudden now we have to have teachers policing i think speech or conversations i think you would even agree governor that is an over extreme example what we're talking about but
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
What we're talking about is if, which happens a lot, unfortunately, is if a young girl says that, hey, I want to transition, and the teacher accommodates and affirms it, and the parent doesn't even know. I have met parents like that in the state. I heard Trump, and then they come back, and they're a boy or something.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I will say, and we don't have to, you know, we don't have to wrestle too much on this topic, but you guys will lose on these topics and you might disagree.

And the one that is making the most headlines is the issue of men in female sports. And I love debate. I'll debate anybody at any time. And as far as if this is the best use of his time while people still do not have homes in the Palisades, that is a good argument. Now, this is the longer clip. Let's just start here. around men and female sports. This is going very viral.

Your self-awareness is helpful to know because it is deeply unpopular. And I think that is an ascendant political force that is not going away.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
Of course I do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I'm not going to run for president as a moderate. The facts are this. It's very simple. A California public school teacher is not required to inform parents if their child is transitioning. In July 2024, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill 1955, also known as the Support Academic Future and Educators for Today's Youth Act.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
The legislation prohibits school districts from enacting or enforcing policies that require teachers or other school staff to notify parents about a student's gender identity, sexual orientation, or gender expression. So he's taking an incredibly extreme interpretation of, and it goes back down to, Whose kids is it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
So it doesn't block them from telling, obviously, but it enables teachers who are trying to secretly transition kids while the parents are clueless. Let me say that again. It enables and protects teachers who are secretly trying to transition kids while parents are clueless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And, of course, it empowers the LGBTQ student activist teachers who are trying to go after kids and groom them in the classroom. We know that to be correct. And the parents have no idea. These are our kids, meaning parents' kids, not the government's, not the teachers'. It is a grooming protection bill, no exaggeration. That's how I should have gone about it. I thought I did okay.

He was not prepared to be able to defend this, and he tried to weasel out of it, saying, oh, I don't know the details of it. This would have made racial discrimination legal in the state of California, and the voters of California overwhelmingly rejected it. He knew I got him on finally a California detail in 2020. I got him on one California detail. He was not prepared for Prop 16.

Kudos to Blake for pulling this one out. And it wasn't like a small thing. This was a major racial reckoning ballot referendum in the middle of 2020 that he endorsed.

And you look at these videos, Governor, because it's not just that it's OK, you read an article about it. But these young men that are, you know, are in these sports, they're throwing around girls. And it is an issue of fairness. But it goes to a broader arch narrative. There you go. Which is important.

Which is this, that the Democrats, you guys will tend to view an incident through an oppressed or repressed lens.

It's your training. It comes from college. It comes from, and we as conservatives tend to view things through right or wrong or just or unjust. And the country is going far more in our direction and away from your direction. That's just a little taste. Now, I do have to interject one thing. By the way, Governor Newsom is getting attacked by the left.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
rather aggressively for saying, quote, I completely align with you. He aligns with us on this program. Now, is Gavin, is he being, let's just say, honest with his deeply held beliefs? I think it's just pure transactional politics, but who knows? And honestly, who cares? What's important is that we are winning on the issue, and even the governor of California has to come in our direction.

But boy, there's going to be a reckoning in California because that is the center of radical trans ideology. However, there's something that he said that I would have interjected and said if the podcast would have been recorded the next day, which is he said, well, they're more likely to commit suicide.

as with surgery, a 22.9% depression rates. Females who underwent surgery also had anxiety rates compared to 7.1% without surgery. A new study came out that shows that it's not even true.

So I would have responded to Governor Newsom If that study would have been out in time for our conversation, we're going to keep on going into this conversation that I had with Governor Newsom.

Thank you. I'm kidding. He canceled school for two years. Come on. You had the Zoom class for for two years. You shut down all the California schools. All kidding aside, it really does show the power of this program, the power of all of you that subscribe to our show and keep the momentum going, that we are reaching the sons and daughters of the Democrat ruling class.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And I just want to have the offer to Governor Newsom, both privately, privately and publicly. We'd love to have your son come to one of our Turning Point USA events. We won't make a big deal out of it. We won't say, oh, this is Gavin Newsom's son. No, no, no. We just want him to be able to have a patriotic experience this summer. We have our Student Action Summit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
We'd love to have him come to Tampa, Florida. He could bring a couple of Freds. I think it would be incredible to have Governor Newsom there. Again, we wouldn't make a whole thing, a display out of it. He can make up his own mind. But it does show the impact of the virality of what we've been doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
And I wonder if that was one of the reasons why I was invited to be the first guest on Gavin Newsom's program. I was the first guest on the program, and I wonder if it was something to do with his son. But we are reaching the next generation. We are reaching young people. And one of the pieces of tape that we will get into—
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
is how I explained how younger voters are the most suicidal, alcohol addicted, anxious, and quite honestly, suffering generation in modern American history, if not in American history. Let's play Cut 175.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I want to meet this guy. He's coming to a Turning Point event this summer, Tampa, Florida, Student Action Summit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
It's not me. The president first deserves the credit. But why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
So just to be very clear, why Gavin Newsom is hosting a podcast is pretty evident. He wants to try to run to the middle and try to moderate ahead of the 2028 presidential race. I am the first guest, and we had quite the conversation. Challenged him on a lot of different issues. Did not challenge him on everything I wanted to.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
The president deserves huge credit. And I just have to say that as an obligatory thing, because without him, our movement would be small. And you can appreciate that in politics. You have to appreciate the person who is the catalyst.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
It was also just the catalyst. It was a cultural moment that just opened us up. By the way, the media is covering this all live. It's big, big coverage about how Gavin Newsom is breaking with the Democrat Party. Daily Mail, Fox News, across the board. Here's going to be interesting for Gavin Newsom. It's not worth our time whether or not the shift is legitimate or not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I don't think it's legitimate. I think it's all just political opportunism. Is will the Democrat Party put up with a candidate like Gavin Newsom who's trying to moderate his views? Will they allow somebody to say, nope, actually, no men and female sports to try to help rebuild the image? And we went right in, by the way, on all the race stuff, Prop 16, legalized racial discrimination.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom
I also challenged him on the most radical trans law in the country. And to be honest with you, we'll play this tape of when I challenge him on the most radical trans law. He's so slippery when it comes to the California stuff. He'll argue from authority like, no, no, that's not actually what the bill says. This, this, this, this, this. And I know he's wrong, but I don't have the bill handy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
FIRST LOOK EXCLUSIVE: Analyzing My Interview with Gavin Newsom

I'm glad no one's engaging in hyperbole. Genocide. Is the word that they're using. I mean, what a repulsively insulting framing. Because we've seen real genocides over the last 100 years. Obviously, the Holocaust, terrible. What Mao Zedong did to his own people, what Stalin did. And she's comparing no men and female sports. That's the state of the Democrat Party, which is an 80-20 issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Can you imagine being debt-free and not living under this burden anymore? Be unburdened by what has been. Go to YRefi.com. Y-R-E-F-I.com. That is YRefi.com. Okay, we have a lot to get to. Caroline Levitt continues, but I want to get to our guest here from the greatest college in America, Hillsdale College, Dr. Miles Smith, who's an assistant professor of history at Hillsdale College.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
Dr. Smith, welcome to the program. We love Hillsdale, and there's lots to discuss. I want to talk about freedom of speech because when I go on college campuses, they say that, well, Donald Trump is against freedom of speech, but let's get back to our roots. How did the founders view the press and freedom of speech?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
Okay, so let me ask just a separate question then. What are the implications of the fight for freedom of speech today, and what are the dangers of limiting wrong information?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
So we've largely strayed away from the founders' intent for America. Speak about the growth of the administrative state and how in the last couple of weeks we are seeing this new administration at least attempting to reorient us back to first principles.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
All federal funding being prohibited from these universities, what then is case law kind of leading up to the idea of what is acceptable and unacceptable speech on these campuses? Where is the line? Educate our audience on that, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
It's really a 95-5 issue. I think the polling is wrong. I think when people are actually presented, should men be in female sports, I think there's a 5% minoritarian, lunatic vanguard, and the rest of the country wants nothing to do with this. Nothing to do with this. And I guess it's fine because we're crushing the Democrats on this issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
I want everyone in the audience to know in the same way we struggle with truly free speech, we need to uncover the true American founding. Everyone can do that at Charlie for Hillsdale dot com. The real American founding a conversation in closing here. Doctor, please tell us about the work that you are doing, the scholarship you're most interested in, what you appreciate about Hillsdale College.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
You guys should check out his book. What is the name of your book?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
Doctor, I would love to have you on at a different time. We have a lot of breaking news here with press conferences and et cetera. People should check out charlieforhillsdale.com. And I see the ash to all of our Catholic friends, Ash Wednesday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
People should know that the idea of using ashes as a sign of mourning goes all the way back to the Old Testament in the book of Daniel, in the book of Jonah. It is a very ancestral idea in the scripture. So thank you, Doctor. Talk to you soon. Thank you. Thank you, Charlie. Let's cut back to Caroline Levitt. Let's see what's going on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
We are running circles around them on every core one of these issues. I wish the Democrat Party would actually come to the middle on some of this stuff. I mean, it would be harder for us politically, but better for the country. I would rather have what's better for the nation than what's just good for the Republican Party.

Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
I would rather have the high road of, okay, we can agree we are not going to have men and female sports. And all of the trans stuff is destroying the base of the Democrat Party. They have a partnership with the trans zealots. They are captured by this sinister and pernicious ideology. And this is a great tape here of Governor Healey talking about how DEI is being rolled back. Play cut seven.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
You know what keeps me up at night? Not my conscience. It's actually my aging DNA. It's like getting hammered like a pinata at a kid's birthday party. But here's the wild thing. Scientists in Australia just discovered that one mineral might be the bouncer your DNA needs. In this fascinating study, they found that low magnesium levels are like leaving your DNA's front door wide open to damage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
But here's the kicker. A whopping 80% of us are walking around magnesium deficient, basically telling Father Time to come at us, not smart. That's why I'm obsessed with magnesium breakthrough with bioptimizers. While other magnesium supplements bring a knife to a gunfight, this bad boy packs all seven essential forms of magnesium. Seven.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
It's like assembling the Avengers of anti-aging minerals in one capsule. My favorite part? I'm sleeping like a teenager again, handling stress like a Zen master, and waking up with the kind of energy that makes coffee jealous.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
So, yeah. So talk about that. It went well. Everyone's laughing because there's now some drama over the release of some of the of what happened there. But we filmed it ourselves. But yes, Kane, tell me about your thoughts on that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
Well, worst case scenario, we have our own iPhone video of it. So we'll see what happens. All that's still being discussed in the moment. So let's talk about the state of the Democrat Party, Kane. They're making our job quite easy right now. Why is that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
I'm with you, Cain. And I mean, I don't make any predictions about the midterms, but the direction of the Democrat Party, it's just troubling for how a major political party could believe this and how they could embrace this ideology. It's beyond disturbing. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. What does the future hold for business? Ask nine experts, you'll get all sorts of different answers.
The Charlie Kirk Show

In fact, you might get 10 answers if you ask nine experts. They'll say a bull market, a bear market, rates will rise or fall, inflation up or down. Can someone please invent a crystal ball?

So let's go into detail. What exactly can OMB do to say, NPR, you're not getting your money anymore? Planned Parenthood, we're going to look at your money and your your payments. We're not going to do the USAID thing. In some ways, the USAID fight would have been even more potent if we had Russ vote at OMB. Is that fair to say?

The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
So, Caroline, so much to go through here. The first question I have is kind of how are you settling in to this job? I mean, you are 27, the youngest press secretary in history. Our audience is asking this question saying, how did you get so equipped and so prepared for this? Just more of a personal question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
I completely agree. Let's play some of this reaction here just generally from the Democrats. This is Rachel Maddow. This is the late night fight. Let's play cut 109.

The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
President Trump announced the war on Christianity is over. You see, what President Trump has been doing has been consistent with God's moral natural law. It's been consistent with the design. God created two sexes, male and female. God wants strong families. That's why it says, honor your mother and father so that you may live long in the land in which you are in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
The only one of the Ten Commandments that involves a promise and involves your country. Honor your mother and father so that you may live long in the land in which I am giving you. We live in this sea of counterfeit, fake religions, of polytheism, the religion of self, materialistic narcissism. Modernity, where there is no God and I am God.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
President Donald Trump is a great defender of the Judeo-Christian values that undergird our entire nation, that are foundational to our existence. This morning, President Trump, of course, keynoted the National Prayer Breakfast. Let's play cut 136.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
This is a cultural resurgency. No longer should you be afraid to share your faith. No longer should you be afraid to share your political values. This is the counter-revolution against their color revolution that occurred in the summer of 2020. And it is ascendant. It is a reset back to core fundamental values. Dennis Prager, who I encourage you to keep praying for.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Dennis is fighting every single day and still in a serious medical situation. Would be so thrilled and is thrilled to see this. If he was on radio, he would be thrilled to comment on this. And I plan to visit him again soon. President Donald Trump just pinpointed one portion of the American Trinity. It is liberty, e pluribus unum, and in God we trust. That is a Dennis Prager special.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
The American Trinity. And we are a nation where we trust in the Almighty. We're not a nation that just believes that we are a happy accident. President Trump talks about after years of decline, we are reasserting our identity. Play cut 137.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
And it's not just talk. President Trump instructed his new excellent attorney general, Pam Bondi, to head a task force to eradicate any and all anti-Christian bias. No more are students going to be kicked out of class for saying that Jesus is Lord. No more are we going to be punishing Moms for going to school boards because they're part of prayer groups.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
No more are we going to be monitoring faithful Catholics that go to Latin Mass. No more are we going to be raiding the homes of pro-life warriors that are praying legally on sidewalks for an end to abortion. We're not going to put up with that. President Trump is saying no more are we going to close churches and keep strip clubs open. Let's play cut 151.

The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
And if you are a gang member like Tren de Aragua, oh, the hunt is on. You might have evaded capture here or there, but the government has your name, your details, your background, and you might end up in an El Salvadorian prison sometime very soon. Somebody in the federal government is going to go to jail for a long time for this. And by the way, this is only just one little chapter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
You have four years, and maybe if JD wins, we have eight years. We have 12 years to find every single one of these rascals. So yes, this is irritating, but we'll find you. We'll arrest you. And maybe we'll send you down back to Venezuela. Or maybe Gitmo. Somebody in the federal government leaked a confidential plan to raid one of the apartment buildings that Tren de Aragua was controlling.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
This was part of Operation Liberation, the liberation campaign in Aurora, Colorado, to get immigration's custom and enforcement to be able to go door by door. Now, ironically, the apartment is now liberated. It's empty. But listen to this. This should just irritate you beyond measure. This is almost treason.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Somebody in the federal government, they're going to find out who it is, and they're going to go to jail for 10 or 15 years for leaking confidential plans to try to help out Tren de Aragua. This is not helping out little grandmothers praying the rosary in El Paso, Texas. This is not helping out eight-year-olds in a preschool.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
No, no, this is helping out the worst stone-cold killers, the rapists, the thugs, We're going to find out who leaked it, and you're going to have the full wrath of Tom Homan coming after you. Play cut 168.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
I am so glad that there has been a prohibition on the phrase circle back. I have not heard that from you that you're not going to say I'll circle back with you on that. And yet I see no binder. How do you prep for this, Caroline? I mean, it's it's a remarkable amount of information that you have to retain. What does prep look like?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Oh, he's ticked and he should be. Understand here, there are NGOs that probably USAID was funding that are helping illegal gang members avoid persecution. Elon Omar is out there speaking in Somalian, telling people how to avoid ICE. You have AOC that is sharing pamphlets of all. You don't have to answer questions. You have to do this. These people must be very careful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Phil Murphy, by the way, just so you know the power of this program. Did you see the latest out of the governor of New Jersey? Governor of New Jersey was a real smart aleck over the weekend. Remember? Oh, I have an illegal over my garage. Oh, he has walked that back like you wouldn't believe. Oh, no, no. Actually, she never lived there and she's perfectly legal and nothing to look at here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Oh, tough guy. I thought you were the Mr. New Jersey mayor. I thought you were Tony Soprano. I thought, come on, come after me. I got the guy up in the garage. What are you going to do, arrest me? Yes, we will. We'll raid your home and put you in Gitmo. Oh, not so tough anymore, Phil Murphy. He walks it back. Oh, I don't have any illegal, and I was exaggerating. I was embellishing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Politico.com writes that even New Jersey Democrats cringe at Phil Murphy saying that he's harboring illegals. This is a 5% issue, and if you are going to harbor, aid, assist... Transnational gangs, you very well might be in prison too. We have a lot of prison space to fill because you know why? We're emptying our prisons and sending these hombres back to country of origin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Every day we got the worst of the worst and they're going back. Boom, plane goes up, going to India. Boom, it's going to Gitmo. Boom, it's going back to El Salvador. And if you're really bad, you get to be welcomed by Bukele in El Salvador where you get 30 minutes outside of your prison cell. We're going to get to five X deportations. We're going to get there. Congress is going to act.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
ICE is going to be increased. Border Patrol is going to increase. This is all just kind of little growing pains right now. These little NGOs are talking a good game.

So let's talk about USAID. You went through some of the elements in regards to USAID. The media is losing their mind on all of this. What is the president's plan moving forward if potentially a judge enjoins this? What is the current battle plan, if you will, regarding USAID and, as the president would say, the house full of lunatics that are funding the worst projects imaginable?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
No doubt. So, Caroline, help me understand and the audience understand fact from fiction. We have Elon Musk's team of geniuses. The media is making it seem as if right now his team of geniuses are accessing your private bank information and that are leaking it to unknown sources. These articles are happening on nearly an hourly basis.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
I think that they're flirting with potentially slandering these young people. These young geniuses, the way they did with Nicholas Sandman. Can you help separate fact from fiction of the scope of work of Doge and the important precision that they're operating, of course, under the president's direction?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
That is amazing to hear. And again, they're going after these young geniuses kind of like yourself. They really don't like the fact that there's this youthful energy that is in D.C. fulfilling the mandate that American voters gave them. There's also a lot of questions. And I know there's been a lot of back and forth here about the president's plans in Gaza.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
I know you mentioned this yesterday with your PowerPoint presentation. Can you also clarify that? Because the media, the front page of The New York Times, you know, our favorite newspaper, is making it seem as if this is another foreign war. Proposal is rattling the Middle East. Look, the president is the greatest dealmaker probably in American history. And in him we trust.
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
What is your message to, again, separate media lies versus truth in regards to his announcement on Gaza?
The Charlie Kirk Show
President Trump, The Promise-Keeper ft. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
And just to make sure everyone is clear, the president tweeted quite early, might I add, I'm sorry, truth socialed, quote, no soldiers by the U.S. would be needed. Stability for the region would reign. This would not require U.S. troops on the ground in Gaza.

You could say it's Custer's last stand, but I think the Battle of Balaclava is one that gets Blake's attention. It's a big deal what's about to happen in front of the U.S. Senate, and they know it.

They've been up all night trying to filibuster this thing. They're going to lose.

Brendan, welcome to the program. Brendan, let's set the table. Reintroduce the audience to what the FCC is and does.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
There's no cost, and it's easy to get started. That is charlieforhillsdale.com, C-H-A-R-L-I-E, forhillsdale.com. Very smart man joins us next, and I thoroughly enjoyed the research that he did regarding this lie that the media is peddling. It's Will Chamberlain, senior counsel at the Article 3 Project. Will, great to see you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
Will, if you were just to watch the mainstream media, let me read the headline from The Atlantic. Quote, the Trump administration has acknowledged that it grabbed a Maryland father with protected status and mistakenly deported him to El Salvador, but claims that courts are powerless to order his return.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
On campus yesterday, a young man shows up to the microphone screaming, saying, Charlie, they deported a U.S. citizen. I said, no, they did not. Will, what are the facts here? You did all the research. You looked through court documents. What is the truth?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
And so help me understand, though, the way that the media is framing it. Here's this poor father. You know, he never should have brought up. What does administrative error mean? There is also evidence that he was part of MS-13. According to Stephen Miller, there was some MS-13 ties. So just look, when you're running a big operation, errors happen. Let's just be honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
What does administrative error mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
That's right. And so thank you for that explanation. Let's go to Stephen Miller also talking about this. And it's very important. And look, you've got to be so meticulous here. The Trump administration understands that. But it's not as if they scooped up an American citizen or a green card holder. The media keeps on calling him a Maryland dad. According to the court documents, he has MS-13 ties.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
And he applied for asylum, testifying that he fears returning to El Salvador because the 18th Street gang was targeting him and threatening him with death because of his family's business. And also has ties to human trafficking. Let's play cut to 12.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
So, Will, all kidding aside here, the mass deportation plan is lawful. It might not be something that the media likes. What is your take on the deportations and the media's coverage of it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
and the essence and of course i think the trump administration gets a little bit of a cautionary hey you have to make sure every administrative detail is followed because let's just be honest if they actually would have put an american citizen in an el salvadorian jail then then we're in a different circumstance that is not even remotely close what's going on here will
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
OK, so more broadly, if you were to now give political advice or just to say broad strategic advice, because you think about these things rather deeply, Will, of where the Trump administration is proceeding and how they are executing on mass deportations and the border. What would you say? And also talk about how we actually have a border again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
And I just have to laugh because that's like the one thing Mitt Romney was right about that he was scolded terribly for. Do you remember when he was running for president in 2011, 2012 and Mitt Romney in his typical goofy technocratic way? Well, if we secure the border, then people will self-deport. And he was ridiculed. People say people would never voluntarily leave the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
No, self-deportation actually is part of the strategy. And by the way, just so we are clear, the Cornell Ford student who sued the Trump administration just self-deported. Mamamoto just turned himself in and just he's gone. His name is literally Mamamoto and he's gone. And so self-deportation is a primary and important ingredient towards the securing of our nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
And I want to reinforce something you said, Will, which I hope our audience internalizes. The closure of the southern border is one of the quickest public policy accomplishments and achievements of the last era since World War II. We have not seen a public crisis go from the Richter scale of 10 out of 10 to basically a non-issue in 100 days or less in my lifetime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
Think about all the problems that we've dealt with that were crises. COVID, lockdowns, financial crisis, Iraq war, terrorism, 9-11. We have never seen a crisis since I have been born go from crisis to non-issue so quickly. Am I right in saying that, Will?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
That's right. And also, just so we are clear, I want every administrative detail to be followed. But what a signal that sends to gang members right now. And they're saying, oh my goodness, if I even might be remotely associated with MS-13 and I step foot in the United States, I might end up in an El Salvadorian prison. How's that for the neoconservative's favorite word, deterrence, Will?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
That's wonderful. So let's talk about your investigation into ABC and Disney. Tell us about it.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
It is pure propaganda. It is blood libel. So the idea is that a white kid gets consumed by far right content online like the Charlie Kirk show. So he stabbed a girl to death. And this shows the crisis of radical content online that Britain must stop. It proves that we need more censorship when in reality knife crime in Britain is almost entirely by non-white, mostly Muslim immigrant populations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
Just joking. That's the truth. It's not white native Britain, 13 year olds that are going and stabbing up people in their local school. And by the way, the actual headlines when this happened was the reality were immigrants that were doing this. And now the idea of adolescence is how the manosphere is propagandizing young men to become murderous to their classmates.

There was this piece of tape this morning, and I'm trying to find it, of a professor from University of San Diego or somewhere nearby. And they asked her, they said, hey, how do we make our politics more progressive? And she said, the number one thing we need to do is regulate social media. The number one thing they want to do is prevent different voices from having a speech on social media.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Truth About the "Maryland Dad" Deportation
Brendan, we see that in Germany. They are raiding homes over what people are putting on social media in the United Kingdom as well. What is your commitment to freedom of speech at the FCC to stand against these calls to prevent conservatives like myself and this audience to speak on social media?

So, Brendan, in closing, what are some of the other priorities that you guys are looking at the FCC? Big fights. AI is a big one. Also, the idea of Internet access.

What else are you guys thinking about as top priorities of the FCC?

Brendan, we support you 100%. There's a lot to go after. In fact, we've talked about on the show how there's this boycott network that is going after shows like this, this RICO type of activity that are trying to restrict over-the-top providers.

Victor, do you want to comment on a second for a second on Hillsdale College? I know we both share an admiration of them. You're a visiting lecturer there, are you not?

And if I remember correctly, I could be wrong, but I'm drawing from memory of one of your lectures or articles that you might have been at Hillsdale or in Michigan riding your bike or something. And you saw Trump flags in 2016 and you saw some indicator. Is that am I am I remembering correctly?

So, Victor, you have had some phenomenal commentary lately on President Trump's tariff policy and how we should think about this through national security and the reindustrialization of America terms. Please explain to our audience what your take is on President Trump's tariff announcement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
That's a good segue to something you mentioned previously. You're different than most intellectuals, philosophers and historians and professors. You work with your hands. You are a farmer. It's not just some hobby. It's not something you do for social media. You don't run a TikTok account where you do it for likes. You enjoy being in contact with the earth. You have been your entire life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
There is a fair amount of angst and anxiety in the farmer community right now about these tariffs. I know you touched on this previously. I was at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma, a couple of days ago, and a couple of farmers came up and they were all Trump guys wearing Trump gear and they were very worried.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
They said that these tariffs very well might raise the price of equipment coming in, that they might not be able to export their goods. Please, as a farmer, give us your take on Trump's tariff announcement. How should we think about this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
The farmer base overwhelmingly supported President Trump. And I believe long term it is going to they're going to have incredible prosperity. They also get heavy machinery discounts. I know that the president is looking at that in the upcoming tax bill. Victor, you also you mentioned something a little while just previously.
The Charlie Kirk Show

You said that you were stunned by how many Hispanics and men were going in President Trump's direction. We are seeing a realignment of political parties. I know you've written extensively about this where no longer are we divided as much on race, but we are divided instead really on male, female and on class.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
How should we think about the current political divides and how our political parties are realigning?

So as a historian, how would you judge President Trump's, we're almost at 100 days, his first 100 days versus Obama and that of the 20th century? He has accomplished quite a lot, signed a ton of executive orders. How would you look at what President Trump has been able to do in such a short period of time?

It really is. He's a political marvel. Victor, you wrote extensively for the last couple of years when Biden was president on the mass chaos on the southern border. Can we just comment for a couple of minutes on how quickly President Trump has been able to seal the southern border? It is we have grown accustomed to crises go on for five, 10, 15 years. Think about it.

So help me understand the history of tariffs. The only history that most people can remember is, oh, tariffs caused the Great Depression, Smoot-Hawley tariff. But it's actually far more deep and complex and interesting than that. Our government was largely funded on tariffs, as per Abraham Lincoln supported and Alexander Hamilton. What is the history of tariffs when it comes to our country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
And let's go much deeper than the superficial analysis that, oh, it caused the Great Depression.

Yes, it has. And I want to really hone in on a couple of things you mentioned there. The first of which is how the libertarian free trade absolutism took over so much of our trade policy and so much of the prevailing dogma of Washington, D.C. When did that start?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
And why did it largely go unchallenged or unchecked from the American right for nearly 30 or 40 years, despite the obvious consequences of deindustrialization, factory closings, and the fact that we couldn't make anything? Walk us through kind of how that hyper-libertarian view grew.

Victor Davis Hanson with us. Sorry to cut you off. Please continue. I love this idea that you were getting into, that it became almost... I like the word passe, but it was just not acceptable or desirable to work with one's hands. That upper middle class society, no one wanted the children, no one in suburban society wanted their kids to go work construction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Victor Davis Hanson Helps Make Sense of a Confusing World
The idea was you're going to go work on a laptop, you're going to go work as an accountant or an engineer. Upper middle class dogma became that if you had to sweat to make a living, to be a plumber, a welder, electrician, there's something wrong with you, go get a four-year degree. Please continue on that, Victor.

So I couldn't agree with that more. And what President Trump is trying to course correct it. I suppose I'm going to ask you a speculative question. Can we become a body, not just a brain economy? Is it possible?

The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Will, we complained while Biden was president that there were separate fitness standards in the military for men and women. If a woman wants to be in the military, she should have to do the same amount of push-ups, the same amount of pull-ups, and run at the same pace as a man.

Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
In battle, the enemy does not shoot less or deploy less IEDs or fight softer if he finds out that it is a female combatant versus a male combatant. Tell us about the announcement that Pete Hegseth has made that women must now be able to have the same strength and fitness standards as men in the military. Tell us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Yeah, so just to get into more of the details of how it was, yes, thank you. You guys found it. Great job. Put 44 up on screen. By the way, this entire rubric was so memory-hulled, it was really hard to find this. Very hard. So if you are a woman in the U.S. military, again, this was a little bit goofy, so you guys have to help me understand. They also made the chart in this backwards way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
It's very difficult. So guys, help me understand this. So if you are a woman for push-ups... A female, in order to get the most amount of points, had to do 53 push-ups, where a male had to do 57 push-ups. Am I reading that correctly? I believe I am. Yes. Where in order to get the next threshold of points, yeah, this is all based on age.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
So basically the accommodation, again, so there's an age bracket here. It's very complicated. By the way, they got rid of pull-ups completely, it looks like. They just got rid of pull-ups. But the running is the most dramatic, which I think is one of the most important parts of military preparedness and fitness, where the man has to be able to run in 13 minutes and 22 seconds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
The female can be two minutes slower than a man in a battlefield under the Biden physical fitness standards. The deadlift, this one I find to be so flummoxing. So to get a max score on a deadlift, a man needed to be able to deadlift 340 pounds. A woman, 230 pounds. So, Will, explain to me. You're in a battlefield in Yemen. You're in a battlefield in Iraq.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
You're in a battlefield and basically a woman under Joe Biden would not be able to lift an average weight of a soldier and still be able to be on the front lines. Am I understanding this correctly?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
You say one thing to the heartland of this country, and then you kowtow to the Wall Street class. We have gone into great detail on this program on what is a tariff, where do tariffs come from, why do certain countries embrace them, and why do they not? When you are the incumbent economic power, tariffs can be a tool to bring more money, more investment, more capital back to the homeland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
In fact, just to go through them very quickly, there will be a 34% tariff on China, 26% tariff on India, 25% tariff on South Korea, 24% tariff on Japan, 32% tariff on Taiwan, 10% tariff on the United Kingdom, 46% tariff on Vietnam, 31% tariff on Switzerland, 49% tariff on Cambodia, 30% tariff on South Africa. It should be higher than that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
So it's grading on a curve. Is that fair to say? Basically, we have a grading on the curve for military preparedness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Let's hear it in Pete Hegsat's own words. Let's play Cut 295, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
However, in order to use tariffs, you have to be willing to look the markets in an eye and say, I know you might be a little ugly. I know you might be a little mean, but I am willing to persevere. I'm willing to push through tariffs. The instant pain so that we can have long-term success. As we've said many times on this program, the West was built thanks to delayed gratification.

The Charlie Kirk Show

Not instant gratification, but instead delaying the inevitable payoff. We have wanted to play this piece of tape a couple times. I did play it a few weeks ago on this program, and it's very important. It's one of my favorite pieces of tape, and credit to the Jesse Waters show for compiling it. Because I think this piece of tape sets the tone from what President Trump announced in the Rose Garden.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Will Thiebaud continues as Army veteran and director of American Military Project at the Claremont Institute. Cut 325 up. Under the Biden administration, there was a celebration of pregnant Air Force pilots. Pregnant Air Force pilots. That's what the military has become. Of course, we're all for people having families, but the military should be to crush our enemies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Will, what percentage of women are going to make it through these fitness standards that are now equal for men and women?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Will Tebow, excellent. Yeah, I mean, look, it does beg a deeper and broader question. Should women be in combat units? And that's a deeper question. And at least from the fitness standards, at the very least, in order for that question to be answered, you have to at least be able to have the same fitness standards. So let's just start there. This is just a very simple, common sense way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
That's a controversial question, and there's plenty of supporting roles. But if you can't even do the physical stuff, if all of a sudden your fellow Marine has his leg blown off and you can't put that Marine on your back to be able to hike a mile with him, to be able to get necessary immediate medical support because you had a special deadlift accommodation, you should not be in a combat role.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Will, thank you so much. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
It sets the tone as to what we are doing here. And I'll be very honest with you. As I was watching the Rose Garden speech and all the networks took it, I was getting a little bit emotional.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Not emotional because of what President Trump was doing at the markets, but when I saw a group of 55-year-old autoworkers, the white working class with their hard hats on, I thought of the countless MAGA rallies that I've spoke at. I thought at the countless political events that I went to.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
And I and President Trump, President Trump and myself, I should say, and myself as proxy would look these guys in the eyes and we would make a promise to them. We would say to these white working class men, elect us and we are going to fight for you. We're going to do mass deportations. We're going to stop the stem on the southern borders, the flow of illegal immigration and drugs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
And we are going to use tariffs. And these polite, mild-mannered, Midwestern patriots that work for Ford or General Motors, that work in manufacturing plants, those that still exist, would applaud as if it was a lifeline. As we say in this program, they're the ones that shower before work and they shower after work. And I got a little emotional watching that Rose Garden speech.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
As those very same guys that we have campaigned for, can say that we voted for this. Donald Trump won the heartland because of these swing voters. These are the Reagan Democrats. These are the Obama Democrats that voted for Obama. And some of them even voted for Joe Biden in 2020. And they came back home. And you look right there on screen. These are the garbage truck drivers, the UAW members.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
And I thought to myself, it is very unique to see a politician do what he said he was going to do, regardless of what the media and the institutions of power threaten him with. So I want to just set the tone to set the vibe of our conversation around this historic Liberation Day speech with why we are here. This is Jonestown, Pennsylvania. Before I was born, this started this sequence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
This right here we're about to play is what President Trump is aiming to solve in the Rose Garden. 32 years of managed decline. 32 years, 35 years, you could say. 40 years of the slipping of American manufacturing dominance. It's a very difficult clip to watch and multiply it by 60,000. Play cut 123.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
32% tariff on Indonesia, 10% on Brazil, 10% Singapore, and 17% on Israel. Tariffs across the board, which is long overdue. Is this a good idea? This is a bad idea. Reciprocity is occurring. I explain how President Trump is fixing a decades-old problem. Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com. Text this episode to your friends and get involved with Turning Point USA at tpusa.com.

And they don't care, you know. You don't need a number. Jobs left and drugs came in. Factories closed and communities shattered. We thought we were getting the better end of the deal. Free trade, our leaders told us. George H.W. Bush was president when that happened. And William Clinton took office soon after in January of 1993. Neither actually decided to fix the raping of the heartland. J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Vance ran for the U.S. Senate and eventually became the vice president because he is a son of the forgotten family. He is a son of the forgotten worker of the UAW. J.D. Vance understands the shared lived experience of the factory workers of Appalachia. When President Trump was doing the Rose Garden, he did not have to do this. He could have done what every politician did.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
Oh, I'm in my second term. I'm not running again. Forget this. I don't actually have to deliver on the promises what I said I was going to do. He could have coasted like Obama. He could have coasted like George W. Bush. But let's go through the list. Reagan, he opened up free trade, which destroyed the heartland. It's true. Reagan was good with a lot of stuff. He was terrible with this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
He did some tariffs, but not nearly enough. Bill Clinton accelerated. George W. Bush was terrible. George W. Bush was awful. Barack Obama, terrible. Joe Biden, he's the first president in the post-World War II based order to say enough. Because President Donald Trump feels an obligation to the people that actually put him into office. He made a promise. He made a pledge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
And to fulfill that pledge and to fulfill that promise requires moral clarity that we have not seen from an American president since probably Dwight D. Eisenhower. This is J.D. Vance who understands the ramifications, the weight, and the heaviness of exactly what President Trump was contesting for. In the Rose Garden speech known as Liberation Day, play cut 121.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
President Donald Trump announced a solution to what J.D. Vance diagnosed as the problem. And I'm going to tell you the exact tariffs that he announced. It's going to be a baseline 10% tariff on all U.S. imports. That's big, everybody. You are seeing the redesigning and the restructuring of the artificial intelligence economy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
You are seeing the restructuring of the geopolitical hemisphere that America will lead. The Western Hemisphere, the Northern Hemisphere that we are in, that we live in, is going to be dominant and self-reliant, reliant on China no more. You're seeing the recalibration of exactly how we view economic matters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
And it's been long overdue because the deal post-World War II is we don't need to make stuff. We can just consume stuff. We could trade a bunch of money and hedge against it, maybe a little real estate economy, and we'll build software, not hardware. And it has resulted in the crippling of our great nation.

I want to get into the specifics here. of exactly what President Trump is issuing as far as reciprocal tariffs and tariffs across the board. But understand, you are seeing a historic reorganization of the global and the American economy. And it's going to come as a shell shock. And there will be market volatility. There will be turbulence. It's basically like taking cough syrup.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
It doesn't feel good, but it is good for you. It's necessary. We have been on borrowed time. We have been on borrowed future promises. And you are not a nation if you do not make stuff in your nation. Let's play cut 122.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
So the U.S. trade representative has chronicled every tariff and every trade restriction on the United States. President Trump has said they calculated an effective average tariff on U.S. goods. If you combine all direct tariffs and all other trade restrictions, he says we are then retaliating by tariffing other countries that amount directly but cut in half with a floor of 10 percent.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
So you might say, what does that mean? A lot of tariffs. That's what that means. It's going to be a lot of tariffs with China. And they could reciprocate. And I'll be very honest, it might be harder to go buy piles of plastic that you do not need. Do you want to be reliant on the Chinese Communist Party? Do you want to be subservient to a foreign land? Are we a colony or are we a country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
And I can tell you who's cheering this right now. The autoworkers in Michigan. The welders in Wisconsin. The people that showed up in record enormous numbers to vote for President Trump are enthusiastically giving a standing ovation for this right now. And do you know how you avoid a tariff?

And understand, if President Trump was just doing tariffs, it's a left-hand, right-hand situation. On the left-hand, you say just tariffs. If he was only doing tariffs, it'd be a little rough. But he's doing the brilliant second move. He's doing the brilliant right hand that makes it all happen. He's doing tariffs plus tax cuts, deregulation, and drill, baby, drill.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
So when you pair those two together, all of a sudden tariffs make a lot more sense. And he's so smart to do this. So in the spring, he announces tariffs, which he can do with his unilateral authority. Get the tough stuff out of the way. Take the pill, everybody. Maybe it's not as bad as you think. And then the all-encompassing strategy is, boom, on the second part,

is a massive reconciliation bill of tax cuts, of no tax on tips, of drill baby drill, of balancing the budget. President Trump is also offering tax deductions on interest on car loans, on American-made cars. So when you then look at the entire picture and you are a foreign company, you have to ask yourself a very simple question. Do you want to be able to access the American consumer?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Rose Garden 'Liberation Day' Reaction
What President Trump is doing is he's saying, hey, in order to access the American consumer, you got to make the stuff here because the American consumer is the golden prize on the planet. Let me say that again. The American consumer is the golden prize. We consume more than any other nation. We are a consumerist economy. We buy and we buy and we buy and we go out to eat.

The Japanese are not like that at all. They have a deflationary problem. They save their money under pillows, basically. That's why almost nothing goes up in downtown Tokyo. They have a deflation problem. They got to keep on printing money and going through quantitative easing. In America, it's the exact opposite.

We have high leverage and huge money velocity and investment and risk-taking and entrepreneurialism. So we are the golden prize. We are the top accomplishment.

I doubted. I was a doubting Thomas. I was like, Don, you're calling the shot. You're like, it's done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
It has. So, Don, there's so much to kind of walk through. Let's go back to what you called day one, what we called the new day one, January 7th, 2021. It looked as if The Trump movement was over. We were put in exile. You never gave up. We never gave up. And now here we are today where everyone acts as if it was an obvious foregone conclusion that we're going to take back the White House.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
So I want to open up to the audience in a second, Don, but I'm going to ask about just the questions I get a lot about your father, about how he operates, because it really is unlike anything you've ever seen. And I mean from the stamina to the capacity to not just campaign but just this life force. I mean you've seen it your entire life. I mean one story that I could tell just from three days –
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
We were hosting President Trump back-to-back in Georgia and then Vegas. I did a couple campus events in between, a couple red eyes, and I was like destroyed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
And President Trump had like four campaign events a day, went from Georgia to obviously Palm Beach, to Palm Beach, to Arizona, Arizona, to Nevada, did two events in Nevada, then went and did Rogan's show, then went to Michigan, came back to 3 a.m. He ended up spending 72 hours awake straight before the election. Is that an exaggeration, Don? No. He did not sleep for three days straight.

You think about it, us with four years in exile, it got rid of all the bad guys without us overnight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Yeah, and we rebuild the government with people that are really good, that know why they're there. I mean, you look across the board. Kash Patel is FBI director. And Tulsi, I mean, it is a rock star team. Let's get to some questions here. Daisy, we have a roving mic. But the emphasis on the word questions, not speeches. So, Daisy, why don't you go pick some people and we'll go from there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Yeah, and from the election standpoint, here's something I think that the Department of Justice needs to do and should do, which is we need to investigate Act Blue, which is the funding mechanism of the Democrat Party. 100%. And that might not strike you as election fraud.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
However, I believe there is illegal foreign money that is being pumped into our election system and is currently corrupting the way that we're able to choose our leaders. Daisy, next question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Awesome. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Only for our members. We'll get you a picture with Scott Pressler. How about that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Okay, great. Let's get to the next question. Well, actually, it was a question. Can you get me a picture with Scott Pressler?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Does this work? Yeah, it works. So it's a great question. I'm in favor of term limits, but California is actually an example of how it doesn't solve all your problems. California has some of the most robust term limits in the country for state representatives and state senators and governors, and look at what it's done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
But I will say out of the 10 states that have term limits, 9 out of 10 are really well run. California could be called the exception to the rule. But if you think term limits will solve all of your problems, it won't. However, I do think it's necessary because having these multiple decade ruling class oligarchs like McConnell and Pelosi – is totally unhealthy and it's wrong.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
So therefore, let's think, maybe we need term limits both for Capitol Hill staffers and making sure that Capitol Hill staffers can't do the revolving door and then become lobbyists afterwards. That's to me the bigger one.

How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.

We want Elon Musk's, not Elon Omar's. Remember that. Elon Musk's, not Elon Omar's. I like that. You can take it. It's a Charlie Kirk original.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
I'll start. This is a problem, is that it would require Congress to pass it upon themselves.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Exactly. So what I think we need to do, and this is why I love Doge, is that the more awareness, the better. So I think that the window on insider congressional stock trading is closing, partially because online you can track the stock deals of what these guys are doing. I mean, Like Nancy Pelosi's stock portfolio is up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
She makes Warren Buffett look like a baby investor, like a moron compared to Nancy Pelosi. It's almost shocking. It's hard to believe. Honestly, we need to get to a place where the law is if you're a member of Congress, you should live under the same ethics laws that White House staffers live under. And the White House staffer laws is you must put all of your stuff in a blind trust.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
You know this, Don. So why is it that members of Congress who have the constitutionally allowed power of the purse? can actively trade stocks, but somebody who works in the White House, even as a low-level White House staffer, can't trade stocks. So if you are a government employee in Congress or the White House, live under the same standard. It's such an easy fix.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Just say what the White House staffers do, members of Congress do. Blind trust, you cannot actively trade stocks that you yourself are doing business for. These guys are on these committees doing deals for electric vehicles and then getting out of those meetings, calling their stockbroker and say, go buy 3,000 shares of Tesla. I mean, it is corrupt. It's wrong.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
And so it's something I think the president hopefully will shine a light on. Or family members. No, that's exactly right. Well, I mean, yeah, Pelosi's husband does the same thing. So it is a deeper structural problem. And, again, when you talk to these members of Congress, they always, like, evade and dodge this question. And, by the way, how repulsive.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
Yesterday they were trying to give themselves a 40, I think a 74% pay increase. Yeah. To $247,000 a year? How about this?

Yep, Daisy.

You mean Ann Seltzer wasn't right about Iowa? Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, and I would just comment, you have a great, I don't know if you like her or not, your attorney general, I think, is better than Joni Ernst. Yes, no, yes? Yeah, okay, good. She should primary Joni Ernst. That is the answer to the question. Final question here, yeah.

The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
And it's that simple. And so I want to be very clear. We said this, and Don and I were part of a few people that held the line for Pete Hegseth. And that's not over yet, but that was a very telling moment because if we would have just kind of surrendered, it could have derailed the entire Trump presidency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How the Base Came Back Better, Stronger, and Tougher — Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump Jr.
and I hope you guys understand that, that the whole direction of the Trump presidency was in suspension. I said, and Don echoed and vice versa, that if you are a Republican senator like Joni Ernst or one of these others, and you voted for Joe Biden's Department of Defense director, and you won't vote for Donald Trump's DOD director, we will primary you and remove you from office immediately.

And our politics are increasingly gravitating towards male-female distinctions a lot less than white-black distinctions. This is why you are seeing the muscular class of young Hispanics and young blacks come more to the Republican Party because they don't want to take orders from a political party that is screeching at them filled with unhappy women. It's not a popular agenda.

And these are individuals that live in the Democrat Party primarily to try and tell you what to do and how to do it. Even worse than that, they will go to young men and say that you are the problem for merely existing. That you are a toxic man. You can't use those pronouns. That you have to stop being so politically correct. That you have to apologize for your existence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
That it's toxic masculinity that we have all these problems. And then what you end up having is a 20-year-old. He decided not to go to college, so he's not in debt, he's not being indoctrinated. But he's driving Amazon trucks to just make ends meet. He's the one that made sure you got all of your delivery packages, by the way, during COVID.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
He's the one that showers before work and showers after work. And everyone is talking about, in the Democrat Party, about climate change and threat to democracy and, you know, the boss babe culture. By the way, I educated Jack on what a boss babe was today, just so you know. He had no idea, right? And this 20-year-old Amazon truck driver...

Scrolls through his TikTok feed and sees a Matt Walsh video or a Charlie Kirk video and is talking about how men need to be men and restore order to society.

Yeah. And so this is a great example of something that the enemy was going to use for evil and we used for good. I've never I was never a fan of TikTok at all. I actually wanted to see it banned. But I also saw its incredible power. And so Congress passed a bill, banned it. I sent out a tweet saying, hey, TikTok, you guys are really for free speech. Can you let me speak?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Because you guys have banned me 25 times in the last week. And they reached out. They were really pleasant. Yep, we're all for free speech. We're going to give you a fair hearing. And Boy, did we take advantage of that. And here's the key, everybody. And the Democrat Party unintentionally misread how people are consuming information.

Now, understand, what is the other difference between a 20-year-old man who ends up being more conservative than his 75-year-old grandfather? Well, the 75-year-old grandfather is probably getting news from either the newspaper or from ABC or NBC or cable news or the white noise machine, which is, I call cable news. It's just kind of drones on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Whereas his 20-year-old grandson is getting news from Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube. Now, which one will actually lead you to be more conservative? Well, it used to be that it would be if you were watching cable news, you'd get more conservative. No, no, no.

Now, because when we had our back against the wall, when Joe Biden became president, and it looked as if our country was dead and over, a new generation of truth-tellers rose up, We built platforms, we got creative, we built an audience, we dug in, we understood what people wanted, and we pursued truth no matter the cost. And not all of us were Christians, but some were like Joe Rogan.

Joe Rogan was big, but remember during COVID, he stood up for ivermectin and CNN changed the color of his skin and slandered him. A radicalizing event for Joe Rogan.

But let me tell you, just the ones I just mentioned have a much greater combined daily audience than what CNN will get in an entire year.

Black voters, Hispanics, and younger voters. They said, no way will these groups ever leave us. No way will they ever walk away from the hold that we have on them. Well, you know what ended up happening? Younger voters moved 13 points in President Trump's direction. 13 points, the greatest move of any generation. Where baby boomers, they actually moved two points in Kamala Harris's direction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Baby boomers are becoming more democratic. Now let me tell you another reason as to why this is. And I see this all the time. An average 75 or 80 year old voter, not everyone in this audience, this is general, okay, are high trust of institutions. They don't love the talk of, hey, our FBI, our CIA, our CDC, our FDA, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, Eli Linney, big food, big soda.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
They're all poisoning us, lying to us, and they're all working together to make us sicker, less happy, and more depressed. That message for a 75-year-old voter, they say, no, no, hold on, no, no, no, no. They say, wait, they can't take it. And by the way, I'm offending when I'm saying this. I don't mean to offend you. It's just the truth. The data shows this, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
They will say, no, no, maybe we need some reform, but come on, you're trying to tell me that we're poisoning our kids. We're a great country. We'd never do that. Go take the vaccine. No, no, you laugh, but the older you are, still you think that there's nothing wrong with the COVID shot, okay? The older you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
So 75 plus over 80% of people over 75 think there's nothing wrong with this COVID shot. Okay. You go down to like 40 year olds, like 70% think there's something wrong with the COVID shot. You go down to like 25 year olds, like 80% are like, this thing is actively giving us myocarditis and pericarditis and kids are dropping dead and we got blood clots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
However, the older you are, you almost create a veil. I don't want to say of ignorance. It sounds mean. But it really is a veil of blindness where it's like they grew up in a country, baby boomers, that was a great country. And they almost look at our institutions as an extension of the greatness that they were raised in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And when you start listing off our military is broken and woke and we can't land airplanes anymore and we have DEI throughout air traffic control and our border is wide open, it's almost like institutional sensory overload.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And then they turn on CNN because like, okay, it makes me feel better because they actually, maybe the world is not falling apart and it's okay. Whereas a 20 year old says, no, it's even worse than that. I can't own anything. I'm in debt. And we need a revolution. Older voters are actually very reluctant to revolutionary talk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
I totally agree. And one last generational note, which I think is important, is that there's basically four voting generations right now. There's Gen Z, which is the youngest, millennials, Gen X, and then baby boomers. And then there is silent generation, but it's very small. So of all four, the one that wildly went to the right, in addition to Gen Z, was Gen X. Now, where are my Gen Xers at?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
You guys are like scary right wing. And I mean, but let me explain why. You, you might say, well, why is Gen X, by the way, is 25 points more Republican than boomers. And they're younger. But why? And by the way, they moved almost 20 points more Republican since 2020. It's because they have kids in school and see what's happening in the culture war up close and personal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And it's this remarkable thing. So millennials, which I am one, and boomers are kind of tied together because I am a son of the boomers. Gen Z is largely sons and daughters of Gen X. And so they almost move as a block. Gen X and Gen Z suffered the most during COVID. Their parents that saw their kids suffer miserably.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
It's remarkable. And first of all, glory be to God, truly, that first and foremost. And Jack, you've been a phenomenal teacher for me and mentor for me. Isn't Jack the best? He's just unbelievable. Thank you. To give me that confidence and that clarity to go into the lion's den and go to college campuses all across the country. Let's kind of go back and talk about what we saw during the election.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
They were in the workforce where all of a sudden their workplaces were shut down and they went all remote. It was the most disruption. And so if you look at the leading indicator, Gen Z keeps going this way. Gen X keeps on going this way. Very, very exciting things are coming ahead.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
That is tpusa.com. Start a high school or college chapter today at tpusa.com. I want to say thank you to Allen Jackson Ministries. We love partnering with you. Go to allenjackson.com. That's allenjackson.com. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And let's go even further back than that. We did a happening now, everybody. Some of you might have been there on January 21st, 2021. That was the day after Biden got installed as president of the United States. And we're going to go back to that later in the discussion because I think there's a really beautiful lesson there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
But after we were displaced from power, at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action, we thought... And our hypothesis was, what if we did everything we possibly can through digital social media, campus outreach, to try to turn this generation away from a predominantly left-wing one into the most conservative generation in American history? It's quite a statement, quite an ambitious plan.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And we went about doing it. And for years, people thought that we were wasting our time, that it was not a good use of our energy or resources. And as you know, I visited hundreds of college campuses. Turning Point USA was doing the difficult work every single day, starting high school chapters, starting college chapters. I think we have some of our Turning Point leaders here tonight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And as we continue to do that work, we started to realize a trend in late 2022. and early 2023, we saw the crowds get a little bit bigger and we saw an attitude, especially of young men that wanted nothing to do with the Democrat party and were increasingly open. towards President Trump, conservatism, Republican Party, and yes, even Christianity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And so now we're living in this kind of post-Christian phase where all of a sudden now we can look at things through a scriptural lens saying, oh, wait, in the end of Deuteronomy, Moses wrote extensively saying that be careful who you invite into your nation because those people will then become your masters if you are not careful. Got it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
So now we look at what's happening in Minneapolis where it's becoming predominantly Muslim. We see what's happening in New Jersey. We see how Ilhan Omar is parading around the Capitol with nothing good to say about America. We see Rashida Tlaib. We see care. We see how they're going after Mike Huckabee. And we can be wise as a serpent and gentle as a dove and say, you know what?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Maybe we should have no immigration from countries that hate us that then repopulate and take over the West. But you cannot have that belief. If you are predominantly secular. Because when you are secular, a counterfeit left-wing view will take the place of Christianity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And I want to be clear, I'm not defending racism or not. I'm saying, though, that there are worse sins than having racial stereotype against that. Like, raping a child is worse than being a racist. Absolutely. And that should be repeated, because in society, we treat the racists worse than the racists.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
But in reality, actually the people making the accusation are the ones with racial bitterness in their heart.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And on the White House.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And so we said, wait a second, the conventional wisdom when you run a political campaign is you always just run to the middle. You run to the moderates and you try to water down your positions because you need to go win over swing voters. That can work.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Yes, and understand, this is where it all becomes spiritual. The enemy, Satan... wants you to live in that state of shame and guilt. He is the accuser. Satan literally means prosecutor in Hebrew. He never will give you escape or freedom. That is why Christ changes the entire ballgame.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And that is why societally, when you have a civilization that believes in Christ, you don't live by your past mistakes. You are born new. You are born in Christ. And then all of a sudden, you don't have to say... You don't have to talk about slavery all the time. Because you're a forgiven nation and you're a forgiven people...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Or you can create more voters and find more voters that are already people that are in your criteria because one out of three Americans don't vote at all. And what if we find those people and register them to vote and bring them into our ecosystem and bring them into our ranks?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Do you understand how the left wants the same way that Satan would to hold you captive of something that you might not have done or been connected to and they keep you in that state of perpetual guilt and shame? Why? You are easier to control that way. You are easier as a society to make you do other things that you would not do. Because you are filled with that guilt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
All of you have been in that place where you feel so bad that you did something. You say, anything, I'll do anything to make it right. Well, imagine that as an entire country. That is the West over the last 30 or 40 years. And that is why the only solution is to bring the entire country back to Christ. To bring everybody back to Jesus. Otherwise...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Actually, you will not be able to long-term solve this problem. And so you asked about the cabinet, but we got a little off track. But it's a phenomenal thing. By the way, this is where I also want to just applaud President Trump's just wisdom and his courage. I truly believe the hand of the Lord is on President Trump, and he's using him as a vessel. I really believe that. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
But just look at the intellectual diversity. You have Tulsi Gabbard. You have Bobby Kennedy at HHS. Praise the Lord that he's there. Two Democrats that were running for the presidency. By the way, if all Bobby Kennedy does is answer one question, he will be the greatest HHS secretary in history. There's only one question he has to answer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
It's not what is a woman, but he already got that one right. It's very simple. Why are our kids so sick? That is his mission statement. That's all we care about, Bobby. Answer that question in four years with no hocus-pocus Fauci science, and you will be a triumph the likes of which we will thank you for 100 years. That one question. Because our kids are so sick.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
In this state, 1 in 28 kids have autism. The highest in the country. 50% of our 15-year-olds are obese or overweight. We do not have a child starvation problem in this country. We have a child diabetes problem in this country. They are trying to add Ozempic to the Medicaid schedule for 12- and 13-year-olds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And so we went about the most ambitious youth outreach program in the history of conservative politics, in the history of Republican politics. And I personally visited well over 100 campuses over a course of a year. Many of you saw these videos that I would do online where I would try to enlighten the next generation about certain topics, ideas, whatever was on their mind.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Harvard scientists are saying that obesity is not a lifestyle choice, it is a genetic condition, and there's no use in trying to change diet or improve lifestyle just through an injection once a week. This is a waste of time. It'll make everyone's lives better to have teenagers addicted to an insulin shot at the age of 12 or 13. We have more kids with neurodivergence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Half of our kids, half of our kids by the age of 21 will have contemplated suicide, said that they are very depressed, hyper-anxious, or in need of significant counseling or a daily regimen of antidepressants. Half of our kids. We are seeing a crisis the likes of which... a wealthy developed nation should never actually see.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
So praise the Lord that the one guy who prayed, Bobby Kennedy, who used to pray to God, this is his own story. He said that his own story is an answer to prayer. Bobby Kennedy used to get on his hands and knees and say, God, put me in a place where I can get to the bottom of why our kids are so sick. He literally said, I will do anything. Use me as a vessel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
So he ran for the presidency as an independent. He ran as a Democrat. I think Bobby deserves a lot more credit than he gets at times. You know how hard it was for a Kennedy to burn all the boats of his ancestry to go endorse Donald Trump? I know you guys might grasp that. It is everything. He is the namesake of Bobby Kennedy, of RFK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And he said, I asked God to give me a chance, and he saw an opportunity. And he did it, and he endorsed Trump, and he was a phenomenal surrogate. And now, to this day, he's already asking the right questions out of the vaccine manufacturers. He's trying to get pharmaceutical advertising off television. Praise God, that would be a huge victory for the American people. Phenomenal. And so...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And I could spend the rest of our evening, Jack, on this, but let me just go quick. We got Pete Hegseth, who's just doing amazing at head of DOD. And we have... By the way, how great is J.D. Vance? What an upgrade J.D. Vance is, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Well, there was two. There was AI, but also the Munich Security Conference.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Please watch it. Masterclass. Extraordinary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And I can tell you that J.D. Vance loves the Lord. He's a serious Christian. He's also a major fighter for the unborn, a serious pro-life advocate. And I love J.D. I can't wait to introduce you to J.D. I want Jack to lay hands over J.D. and pray for him. I think he's going to make a great... 48th president. I really think J.D. 's going to do a great job. I really do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
So, let me... But then also, Kash Patel running the FBI with, hold on, his deputy, Dan Bongino. I mean, come on. And Marco Rubio at Secretary of State. Wow, isn't he... Man, he came on great. And how about Tom Holman securing the southern border? I mean... I just, I want all of you, and there's a lot that we can express tonight, but we should just be in a constant state of gratitude.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And these videos had over two and a half billion views over nine months on TikTok, on Instagram, on YouTube. Praise the Lord. And all of a sudden, these crowds went from a couple hundred people to 3,000 people to 4,000. And we're talking in the middle of the day on a college campus in some of the most liberal campuses across the country. 4,000, 5,000, 6,000 people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
It says in the scriptures to pray without ceasing. And I want that prayer for you to be one of gratitude. Look, there'll be ups and there'll be downs. There'll be cringe moments. There'll be things, oh, I could have said it better. But like, hold on, guys. We have never seen a team of such capable all-stars.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
assembled to save this country that we love and glory be to God for this moment that we are living through.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
That's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
The Lord saved his life that day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And the media was completely ignoring it. And I was like, that's fine. If you don't want to adjust, and if you guys want to just ignore the greatest, most substantial, unexpected generational realignment happening in the history of American politics, go ahead and ignore it. And the results and the data started to come in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Amen. That's awesome. And I just want to remind you guys, we did a happening now, as I said, on January 21st, 2021. And it was not a good vibe here. And we had to try to really dig people out. I think we did a good job of that. And at the time, people would say, Charlie, is this it for America? Are we done? Is it over? And at the time, it looked like that. The border was completely wide open.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
We were seeing the militaristic crackdown of any dissidents. I mean, it was a dark, dark time. But I go back to two scriptures, Genesis 50, 20, what the enemy meant for evil, God will use for good. And they really regret not letting Trump win that 2020 election at this point. There is a lot of regret. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
They're basically like, why is it we had to do all these drop boxes and mail and stuff and the mules and all? Why couldn't we just have allowed Trump a second term? Because now they have to deal with Kash Patel and Dan Bongino and Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard and J.D. Bennett. Now they're like, what is this? It's a disaster.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And it should remind all of us that in those micro trials, and look, we're going to go through trials again. There will inevitably be a time where we get a little too prideful, and maybe the Democrats win another presidential election. It might be in four years or eight years. Things go in cycles, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And so we have to just remember Romans 8, 28, that God will use all things for good for those who love him. And it's just such an important lesson for me because it looked as if it was the end of America four years ago when in reality it was God's love for America to say, no, it's actually a new birth of freedom if you stay faithful and you keep fighting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
If you want to make sense of the change and the chaos happening around us, you're going to need God's help. That's why Alan Jackson Ministries, a friend of mine, created the Culture and Christianity podcast, the Culture and Christianity Conference, and their weeknight news show, Alan Jackson Now.

And can we all just enjoy for a second that beautiful evening in November when President Trump won back the White House? It was just... The Stacey brothers said it to me earlier, great family. They said the air just tasted better the next morning, right? Your food had taste again. The music made sense on the radio. Everything was just tasted sweeter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Great guy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Yeah, and to reiterate that, there is a harvest waiting to happen. And I do not currently see pastors interested at all. And the harvest is very simple. Ties back to what we said earlier. There are millions of young men starving for the truth that are asking their local pastor to start to be a pastor, not just someone who gives a TED Talk with a rock concert wearing skinny jeans.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Don't worry, you're fine, Jack. And they're not that skinny. You're great. A church is more than a place with organized parking and above average coffee and to go hear how great you are. Here's the problem. A feminine church affirms those that walk in. A biblical church or one that is masculine or at least gets presented as one challenges those that walk in. Those are two different things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Allow me to build that out. Young men will go... I hear this all the time. They say, Charlie, I can't find a church near me. Jack, you have young men that will drive five hours to come down here. And they do and they are. And that's awesome and that is something that is a testament to Jack. But how many churches did they pass on the way that weren't telling the truth?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
That weren't doing the right thing? So what does this look like in practice? Well, very simply, it's... When you are presenting the scripture, you need to be actively trying to provoke the people in the audience, your congregation, to understand that, yes, you need a savior, but you can't grasp what a savior is if you don't know what sin is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And so when a church does not preach about sin, then how on earth do you even say you need a savior? The modern gospel, as embodied by those just nauseating he-gets-us advertisements, which are just...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
ridiculously awful and a waste of money and doing such damage to the kingdom right now which basically those ads are saying he gets you jesus is your bro hyper narcissism he's gonna come down hey when you're watching porn he gets you totally when you're going into debt he gets you instead it should be no no no The whole framing of the campaign should be that God judges you and Jesus saves you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Very simple. How often do you hear this idea that God is a God of judgment? Never. Well, because that's too judgy and people won't show up for that. Look, I hate to pull rank here. I know how to draw crowds of young people, okay? And guess what? They don't show up for me on campus because I water things down. They show up, and I will say very plainly, I believe that transgenderism is not biblical.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
I believe that homosexuality is a sin. I will go through these things. I believe that abortion is murder. And the crowds are growing. Why? Because they are so searching for truth. Finally, if a pastor is giving a sermon to affirm the sins of those that attend... That person should stop being a pastor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And the affirmation trend is a very disturbing one where they'll say, well, I'm not one to tell you that if you're in a homosexual marriage, there's nothing wrong with that. Or I'm not one to say that if you're transing your kid, there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, I'm going to meet you where you are and Jesus loves you as you are. Forget all the theological sloppiness there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
How has that worked for the church the last 30 years? It's been a disaster that church attendance is down and watering it down through a modern lens has turned into a generation that says, why would I get up at 9 a.m. to hear this when it's no different than just a self-help seminar at the local library? There's literally no difference.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Instead, what we need is a crisis call for a generation for them to understand that there will be an hour of judgment and that there's only one thing that will save that. And they must understand the severity of sin, what human nature actually is, and the depravity of man. And guess what?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
You have a generation that wants that kind of truth-telling preaching, not the watered-down garbage that they're getting time and time again when they go to their local church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Major news. And so just to summarize it, we saw the results come in and all of a sudden the exit poll showed that younger voters moved substantially to the right. So much so that all Kamala Harris had to do was perform the same with younger voters as Joe Biden did in 2020.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And I'm going to say some things here that are very hopeful, but also should give some people in this audience a little bit of a dose of generational humility. Do you know that your 20-year-old grandson is far more conservative than your average 75-year-old? It's far more. And it's not even close. A young man is like 10 points more conservative than your average 75-year-old white voter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
There's many reasons for this. And by the way, some people get offended. Some baby boomers say, no, that's not true. You guys should be rejoicing in the fact that the next generation is even more conservative than the older generation. So don't get too defensive. But let's talk about why this is, and then I'm going to go into some numbers. The why is critical.
The Charlie Kirk Show

These young people here in front of you are one of the most abused generations, if not the most abused generation in history.

We printed trillions of dollars we did not need and flooded the housing market with it, nearly doubling housing prices. We told them to go into debt to study things that don't matter, to find jobs that don't exist, to only flood them further into our cities filled with homelessness, vagrancy, arson, crime. all to say, hey, it's okay that you will not own anything.

Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
This generation here is the first generation in history that is not keeping on pace with their parents. Not even the great depression generation, the greatest generation, can say that. Every number shows that this generation is more suicidal. They're more drug addicted. They're more anxious. They're more addicted to pharmacological substances. They're more addicted to screens.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
They have less friends, less likely to date, less likely to have kids. We have a childless problem in the West where we are having a population collapse. Meanwhile, baby boomers, many of you have seen your wealth actually go up since COVID. Your houses are worth more. Your 401k is worth more. You might say, well, inflation is crushing me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
It might be hurting you if you're 60 or 70, but if you own a home, you have something that most young people will never have. If you own stocks and you're not 50, 60, $70,000 in debt, you have something that the next generation is not going to have. It is a breakdown of the social compact. And so what President Trump embodied
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
was a full-throated cultural rebellion against all the institutions of power that robbed their future. That robbed their future and lied to them in every corner. And what we were able to do, alongside the Trump campaign at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action, is make the case that the next generation deserves the same country that your parents had.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And that these institutions that Kamala Harris largely embodied are not worthy of your trust. That it is not worthy of your trust. The very same people that want to go spend $300 billion on a war in Ukraine while we're being invaded on our southern border should not be taken seriously when they want to continue to ask for more of our tax money. They should not be taken seriously.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And so politically, we are living through this realignment where the younger you are, especially a younger male, the more conservative you are. And the Democrat Party has said this, Ezra Klein and David Shore, two very sophisticated lefties. This is potentially, everybody, an extinction event for the Democrat Party. This could turn, if this continues, this could turn California into a red state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And I'm not saying that. I'm not kidding you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
if you think about it we have done pretty well in elections the last 20 or 30 years under the idea that the younger you are the more liberal you are and the older you are the more conservative you are imagine if that all of a sudden gets inverted that if they start pretty conservative when they're 19 how conservative they be when they're 30 when they own a home and they have kids
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
They will become even more conservative and resisting of whatever left wing lie or promise of the Democrat Party. And so to play this out even further, when we now are visiting these college campuses, we are noticing that especially young men are gravitating towards this broader cultural realignment. But it is at its core spiritual.

And that is why I love what Jack talks about, because this is not just about politics. Politics is a means to an end so that we can live in a free society for liberty because liberty is not man's idea. It is God's idea. And God wants us to live free. John 10, 10, where there is the spirit of the Lord, there is liberty.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
We see right now that the Democrat party is the embodiment of every ancient pagan idea that the Bible was written to refute and that we challenge all throughout the scriptures. Christianity believes in all of the ideas that we are espousing on these college campuses. And so my message right now is that I think we are on the precipice of a national revival led primarily by young people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And you know what happened in Costa Mesa, as you mentioned. It is bottom up. It is the kids that lead these national revivals. But here is my fear. My fear is that most of the American church is completely uninterested in this moment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
And let me build this out further, if that's okay, Jack.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Why is it that young men are leading the charge? By the way, we should be so pleased that it's young men, because young men will lead the culture and the women will follow. Okay? It is a great sign. There are many reasons for this. But the primary one is that God made men and women different. We know that. And in the state of nature, young men don't like taking orders from women.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Now, you can laugh about that, but every single mom knows this is a serious problem. No, it is. And by the way, it's a laughing matter, but single moms, God bless them, you're modern-day heroes. You deserve better than a husband that abandoned you or a partner that abandoned you. But when you have a teenage son, it is very hard to discipline a 17-year-old boy if you just have a mom in the house.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
That's why dads need to come in to restore order and structure and discipline. Because moms struggle with that. Okay. Well, politics is the administration of order and discipline. It is rules for life. So the Democrat Party has become toxically feminine. Now, understand my heart when I say this, that I'm not saying that all women are necessarily toxic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
I'm saying, though, Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris... Not exactly great embodiments of biblical femininity, right? More like Jezebel than Esther. Cool? Got it. So the Democrat Party, of the last three nominees, two of the three of them were toxically feminine and one was comatose, right? So not exactly a sign of strength.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Young People Are Leading a National Revival — Live with Pastor Jack Hibbs
Understand that what is so exciting about our political moment, everybody, is that we are so race-obsessed over the last five years. It drives me nuts. I'm sick and tired of looking at black and white. That doesn't mean anything to God. But do you know a distinction that God actually does care about? Male-female distinctions. Actually, God does care about them because he designed them.

I mean, backstage I was working. You know, we were watching the college football playoff.

Hey, we have been up. That's right. Go Ducks. You know exactly what you're talking about. We've been up working 20-hour days. We haven't slept for a week. And I said, my only ask backstage is that we have college football playoff. It helps me get through the day. It's just cathartic. Five minutes here, five minutes there. For me, it's just awesome.

God’s Way is Better Than Man’s — Live at AmFest with George Janko
So, George, been amazing to get to know you throughout this last year. You recently got married. Congratulations. Thank you. And we are an organization that celebrates marriage, that celebrates the family, that rejects hookup culture, that thinks that this whole sexual promiscuity is a disaster. We want people to save themselves from marriage.

So, George, so many people are being told, though, that marriage is outdated. It's not worth it. You know, having that kind of propaganda pushed at young people and pushed relentlessly can be very difficult to overcome. How do we overcome that as a cultural movement that does celebrate marriage?
The Charlie Kirk Show
God’s Way is Better Than Man’s — Live at AmFest with George Janko
So let's kind of fast forward to, you know, the world that we're living in right now, which increasingly de-emphasizes biblical truth harder and harder for young people to speak out their mind for Christian values. You know, having been in both the media space and the Christian world and the secular world, what are the differences and compare and contrast those two?

North Carolina is suing Trump. Do you have a Democrat attorney general?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So the SAVE Act, it's a great question. Andrew, do we have a whole write-up on the SAVE Act? I think we do, don't we? Andrew? I'm trying to find that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So look, it empowers citizens to bring civil lawsuits against election officials that fail to uphold proof of citizenship requirements for federal elections by expanding the NVRA's existing private right of action and add penalties for election officials that register noncitizens to vote in federal elections. Is that right? Is that the SAVE Act? It's basically election integrity stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
And so and look, the Democrats were ridiculing Senator Mike Lee's Save Act, which would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections because they say they honor the system alone is enough to prevent illegal voting. Right now, all you need to do is register to vote. This is Blake's great write up back from May. Thank you. All you need to do is register to vote.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
for any federal election is to check a box and fill out a form and use a form somebody else filled out for you. These days, even requiring ID is not enough because it's trivially easy to get an ID as a non-citizen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
The only check is that, in theory, you could be prosecuted for illegal voting, but since Democrats already insist that voter fraud never happens, it's never investigated, and it's simple as that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
confirming that american voters are citizens is the most obvious policy in the world there's only one explanation for democrats behavior on this issue they know that non-citizens including illegal immigrants are voting in our elections and not only are they losing the votes of americans but they're collapsing so rapidly so that they can't even wait for the replacement americans to become citizens
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So that's a little bit of a write up. We need to pass it. Only citizens should be voting. Not complicated. And thank you for being a member. Really appreciate it. Let's go to the next one here.

well the number one thing is good judges and that's what he's going to do he's going to he's going to put excellent judges on the united states supreme court that will interpret the law that is consistent with the second amendment and put judges in place that will be able to analyze the laws and review them people that are pro-second amendment and the pro-constitution Won't be anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
I think in the Supreme Court side, we're going to be very good. And then also on the executive order, on the executive order stuff, the ATF and all of the agencies going after the over-prosecution of people being on their own weapons, that is going to stop under President Donald Trump. President Donald Trump is a big believer in the Second Amendment and will continue to be so.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?

He's a Democrat. Jeff Jackson is a Democrat suing. Look, North Carolina is a presidentially red state. I would raise hell about this. I mean, I would organize locally, do peaceful, peaceful protests outside of the attorney's general office. I would not put up with this. I mean, this is a serious violation of democracy. the mandate that the people of North Carolina delivered.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
It's a great, great question. For the record, I am not a fan of the mRNA vaccine thing. Count me out on that whole project. I think President Trump was looking at this through one prism, one prism only, on economic development. He saw somebody that wanted to build an economic data center and was not looking at the MRNA thing. Again, count me out on the MRNA vaccine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
For the record, I even sent that in a very fun group text that if you guys would like to see the participants of that, you would get a chuckle out of that. And a lot of people agreed in the group text. I said, count me out on the MRNA vaccine thing. However, I will say other applications of using such data centers for personalized medical health records, I'm totally on board for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
I think we could all agree in the audience that that it would be good that when, again, I have a loved one in the hospital right now, and they constantly have to go around, oh, where's your paperwork? Where's this? Where's your file? To be able to use better data sets to analyze and find consistencies and find patterns in people's diagnoses, totally on board.

The president, I will defend him on this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
The president saw a hundred billion dollar investment data center. And I would I totally on board for that. Build the jobs. I mean, build the factory. Employ the people. Expand the jobs. Just be very aware of the president's prism on this. He did not mention on the actual technology itself. That was a separate speaker and a separate thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
And I think once Bobby Kennedy is at HHS, there'll be a whole, let's just say, vetting process of separate announcements there. But I totally support the president wanting to attract American business because, remember, that was with the SoftBank CEO who's investing hundreds of billions of dollars in the United States. President Donald Trump is the nation's cheerleader, as he should be.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
He's the salesman-in-chief, and I think it's a great thing on his second day of his presidency. He says, we want to bring a $100 billion investment. The U.S. is open for business. Now, some of the details of what that data center is going to do, it's not limited to that, by the way. There's other applications of AI that are very exciting.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
That is not accurate. In fact, President Donald Trump is authoring and pushing an even greater middle class tax cut. Secondly, we are going to see major reforms when it comes to inflation and inflation is the hidden tax. So whatever you are reading is incorrect and I would dismiss it. That is my answer to you. Thank you for being a member and really appreciate it.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Megan, thank you for being a member. Where are you from and what's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
There there is. So let's just let's just kind of recap this. So just just to say again, so President Donald Trump, this was not about a vaccine rollout for him. It was about artificial intelligence. And so for him, it was all about investment in the country. So it's not President Trump. I wouldn't put that on him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
There were other speakers there that were talking about the vaccine and very excited about that. That's for them to defend and for them to own. I'm totally against it. This was an infrastructure investment. And so understand the president was presented. Understandably, hey, SoftBank is here. They want to do an announcement, $100 billion data center. I would do that announcement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Are you kidding me? If I was president, he's like, yeah, sure, come on. And the president did not mention the mRNA vaccine, if I'm not mistaken. Right, Andrew? He didn't comment on it. It was just one of his other guests that were involved in this. So secondly. Okay. Having Bobby Kennedy administration is like the greatest wrinkle that we could possibly have in all this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
And understand in the current information age, data and energy infrastructure is important. And he's also fulfilling the promise to bring more jobs to this country, which is exactly what he talked about. But you have a partner in me. where I'm like, I'm no-go on the mRNA vaccine thing, for the record. So you and I are in complete tandem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
And when I saw that, I was like, ooh, I don't know if I like that. I like the jobs, but count me out on the mRNA part.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
No, no, no, no, no, no. So that's a phenomenal question. They're talking about building the equivalent of like a thousand football fields of data centers for construction jobs, for infrastructure jobs, for data managers. These are people that are just using the data that are building the data centers themselves. data engineers, electricians, batteries, admin jobs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So these are the muscular class that will keep these data centers going, if that makes sense. They're not involved in the health care, the vaccine thing at all. They're involved in making these data centers because essentially the argument is this, is that artificial intelligence requires significant energy and significant infrastructure.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So to build such data centers, you need to create a lot of jobs and a lot of wealth for a lot of people. this could potentially create 50,000 to 60,000 jobs for blue-collar workers across the country. Wow.

Remarkable. You have to have a bottom up type resistance to this. Thankfully, President Trump is in the legal right about this. Every federal law allows for the detention and the deportation of foreigners and illegals. So we are on the right side of this. Thank you so much for being a member, my friend. Love, North Carolina. I'll let you know when I'm there next. Thank you. Oh, thanks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Anthony is next. Anthony, what is on your mind? And thank you for being a member. Members dot Charlie Kirk dot com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Anthony is the greatest. I think this is Anthony from New York, right? Correct. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
He's been a member since day one. He's been a day one member. Anthony's great. Lover of sports, too. Anthony, so believe it or not, this confirmation process is actually much faster than it was in 2017. And so the reason is the Senate is this ossified, just very frustrating, bureaucratic nightmare institution where... a single senator can basically invoke a 30-hour filibuster.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So as we are recording this program, a lot of people are going to come back and re-listen to this. But as we are recording this program... At 8.30 p.m. Eastern on Friday, January 24th, the Pete Hegseth filibuster expires. So when Senator John Thune, who, by the way, has been really good on this, I've got to be honest, I've been trying to poke holes in him, but he's been very good on the personnel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
I've even asked some of the more anti-Senate leadership people to say, nope, he's doing what he should be doing. And the Senate leadership is doing everything they can to push this through. So when John Thune says we're going to work through the weekend, that's like, whoa, senators don't work weekends. Are you kidding me? They're high royalty. They would never ever working nights and weekends.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
But they say, no, Trump needs his cabinet so badly. We have to get this done. Now, Marco Rubio was an exception because he passed on a voice vote. The reason being is that senators almost always will vote for fellow senators if they're up for something. It is a longstanding procedural tradition. And so that doesn't surprise me. Pete Hegseth is going to be a battle.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Pete Hegseth is going to be a fight. In fact, I am making a prediction that J.D. Vance is going to have to break the tie for Pete Hegseth. And that's fine. That will be the first time that a tie had to be broken for a cabinet nominee. If my memory serves me correctly, Betsy DeVos actually came down to a 50-50 tie and Mike Pence had to break the tie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
And if I'm also remembering, there was one other. There was a procedural when it was Office of Management Budget or something else where it was Russ Vogt back in 20. Yeah, my memory is good. So that is the two tie breaking. Nothing wrong with that. We'll get that done. McConnell may be a yes. We shall see. So believe it or not, I am one to hold the Senate's feet to the fire.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
But I got to call shots accurately. That's why you guys listen to us. John Thune is actually doing everything he possibly can. And I am not one to carry water for John Thune. But I've double and triple checked the work. I've talked to Mike Lee. I've talked to Rand Paul. I've talked to all of them. And they say, Charlie, John Thune has been excellent on personnel. He's doing everything he can.

Well, she looked amazing. I don't know if I looked amazing for the record. I looked barely passable with a face for radio. Erica is the most beautiful person ever. One out of two. But thank you. You're being very kind, Trey. You're working the refs here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So great questions. Andrew has been doing a great job producing the program this week. Andrew, next week, I really want an expert on Fauci. I want to do a whole week on the preemptive pardons. I want to have one guest on Fauci, one guest on January 6th, because there's been so much news we have to kind of go back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
and figure this out so potentially other countries could request an extradition if they charge him the other question is whether or not state states could prosecute him but let's just take a step back is this not the most paranoid pardon in the history of pardons We know that Fauci lied to Congress. Okay, there was criminal exposure there. I can't read that pardon. What is on there?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Is it full and absolute for all crimes? Is that what it says? Is that as wide-sweeping as you can specify a crime? That's the ultimate king's pardon, right? I mean... By the way, for those of you that had to take eight jabs, or for those of you that were injured by the vaccine, for those of you that had kids commit suicide because of the lockdowns and the lies, how does this make you feel?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
I think this is so outrageous. Preemptive pardons have rarely been used in American history. Gerald Ford used it with Nixon. Jimmy Carter with Draft Dodgers. I find this element to be personally one of the great affronts to the justice system we've ever seen. And why did he need a pardon? I thought he was time man of the year. I thought he was the greatest person ever.

I do want to be clear, though. Fauci deserves it. Fauci is one of the most despicable, disgusting human beings. Trey, what is your final thoughts on the pardon of Fauci and how Americans should think about it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
It is not just affected by the virus, which I think he lied about through gain of function research. It's also about the lockdowns. He was the author of the greatest immoral action of our government. And I think that's a really serious contention. One of the greatest immoral interventions in the history of the species, the lockdowns. We are still recovering from the lockdowns five years later.

Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Great question. First of all, I just I love the I love the energy and the zeal to want to do to do this. I think it's terrific. So first of all, I want to thank you for being a Turning Point USA high school chapter chapter member. Caleb does a great job of that. By the way, we should have some sort of special thing for high school chapters and college chapters.

I want to be members like a special, you know, program. I think it's great. So thank you, Caleb. I don't have an easy answer for you. I'll be honest. I get asked this question a lot. Charlie, how do I fight the tyranny of this or that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
Instead of me giving you specific practical advice, it's through building strong community, not giving up, not taking no for an answer, and also starting with your local school board. And if necessary, we can get lawsuits involved saying that, well, why is this book allowed and that book is not allowed? By the way, what you're talking about is making the left live up to their own book of rules.

Matt, Matt, what is on your mind? Thank you for being a member. Happy Friday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
No pun intended. Why are they allowed to have books of Luciferian garbage, books of transgender nonsense, books about genderqueer? But if you want C.S. Lewis or mere Christianity, or if you want Man's Search for Meaning, or if you want any of the great books of the Christian canon, why is that such a difficult task?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
A Secret Service agent came up to me the other day and said, Charlie, where's your reading list? I said, just read... the top three books by CS Lewis and your life will be infinitely enriched. I mean, that's a great, that's a great place to start. And of course the Bible and understand that these school boards and these schools, they will go to such great lengths. They wrote it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 210: Deport Fauci? Vivek Leaving DOGE? Revive the SAVE Act?
So over the top lengths to try to make sure that beautiful literature filled with wisdom will not be allowed to in the public domain. But the ugliest, most just lack of, the most shallow and ugly pieces of literature ever will be thrown around and allowed in all of these different environments. So don't give up, Caleb.

Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Hey everybody, my conversation with the president of America's greatest college, Hillsdale College, Dr. Larry Arnn. Check out charlieforhillsdale.com, that is C-H-A-R-L-I-E forhillsdale.com, charlieforhillsdale.com. We talk about Churchill, education, the Department of Education, and more. This is a conversation worth listening to and sending to your friends.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
And so it's self-governance, too. Yeah, that's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Because we have to remake the thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
It's great for many reasons, also thanks to your leadership. But speak about the – is it the bylaws or the constitution of the college is rather short. It's not a big administrative document.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
A lot of the next generation is drowning in student loan debt, and you guys very well might be one of them. If you have private student loan debt, listen carefully. YREFI is not a debt settlement organization or company, but they work with each borrower individually, tailoring each loan to each specific situation. Private student loan debt in the U.S. has totaled over $300 billion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. YREFI refinances distressed or even defaulted private student loans that others won't dare to touch. Can you imagine being debt-free and not living under this burden anymore? Do you want to be unburdened by what has been? If you are a student loan borrower, go to YRefi.com.

They're huge supporters of our campus tour, for example, of America Fest. That's YRefi.com, YRefi.com. So I want to ask just briefly the unexpected development of Doge empowered by President Trump to go after the administrative state. In your career, you've been talking about the administrative state, deep state, shadow government, whatever you want to call it, for 50 years. That's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Have we ever seen anything like this, this Doge thing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
So, Dr. Arnn, you are probably the greatest living historian on Churchill. Yeah. Is that fair to say?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
We have a picture there of Churchill on the wall. I don't know if you saw that or not. Good one. Do you know what that is? He looks like he's doing a radio broadcast. That's from the 1930s. 1930s? Yeah. Is that him on BBC?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Oh, is that right? Yeah. So he's doing some sort of radio broadcast. Yeah. Who knows what. What can Churchill teach us about foreign policy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
When it comes to Churchill and Russia-Ukraine, how would he think about this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Okay, well, what principles can we apply to that situation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
What makes your college different than just the everyday college? If you were to walk around Hillsdale, which I have, I sense it, I feel it. How do you do this in practice differently?

So that that I'm just reading the constitutional. So these are the 17 things that you're talking. Is that correct? Yeah. And as they are enumerated here. So then how is it that the Department of Education withstood any legal challenge? Well, how did we get to a place where we accepted that the federal government should have such a role?

I'm just thinking, I messaged my team, just so you know, as I said, commit this to memory, what Dr. Arndt just said. That might be the most powerful statistic I've heard in a long time. I've heard a lot of numbers. That's 7 out of 11 million of the people in education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Okay. Yeah. We'll be very precise.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
But what are they? What do these people do? What are their jobs?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Or even the Ten Commandments. Yeah, that's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
And from my understanding of what you've taught me and Hillsdale online courses have taught me, which people should check out charlieforhillsdale.com, there was an inflection point. Woodrow Wilson, who was a historicist, we don't have to go too far in that direction. Yeah, yeah. But this was all happening simultaneously with John Dewey and the change of our view of education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Real Education vs. The Department of Education
Can you speak to how the administrative state was born in practice during that period of time? And we're almost now fighting the 110-year hangover war in 2025. But that simultaneously was happening as we got derailed of what education actually is as well. Those two things are tied together.

Well, thank you, and I take learning seriously. Hillsdale College, I say every day on this program, it is America's greatest college.

Not a Republican Party that goes to D.C. and becomes something completely and totally different. And look at the power that you have. In just the last 24 hours, we did something that we never would have been able to do before. They were trying to do this ridiculous, sick, and twisted, and concocted 1,500-page Democrat boondoggle giveaway, continuing resolution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Under old circumstances, that thing just would have passed. But there's new voices. And we took to social media. Elon Musk took to social media. Many of you took to social media. And the president took the lead and said, no, we're not going to give Congress a 74% pay raise while Americans are being crushed by inflation. We're not going to send more money to Ukraine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
We're not going to have this boondoggle of bio labs being spent overseas. We're not going to have immunity for January 6th committee. And what you did, and I want to show the power that you have, is that you, everybody in this room and everyone watching online, you defeated the Washington insiders in hours, everybody. And that CR is dead. It is dead. And you did that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And it is going to be a relentless fight. Now, the new CR that they have went from 1,500 pages to now it's like four or five pages. And President Trump is going to get what he's asked for, which is a clean slate, a debt ceiling increase, so that we can actually get the biggest, baddest, and best border bill in the history of our country as the first piece of legislation for President Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
The top priority. But it is only going to improve if we stay engaged in the grassroots. if we continue to knock on doors, take over local precinct committees, to start Turning Point USA high school and college chapters. And I just got to brag on our high school chapters. I said this briefly in the video, everybody. But young men are the most conservative they have been in over 50 years. 50 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Think about that. Now... A reporter asked me, they said, Charlie, can you try to explain this phenomenon? I said, yeah, it's very simple. Young men want to be part of a political movement that doesn't hate them. In fact, let me go a step further, that thinks they're essential to a future of a country. That we need strong men and strong women.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
that we're sick and tired of hearing about toxic masculinity when we are drowning in toxic femininity. When we become a feelings-based culture. You can't say that. You can't do that. You're going to offend somebody. And who is the most overtly masculine political figure of the last hundred years? No, it's not Tim Walz. Stop it, okay? That's not true. No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
The kids are all right. Welcome, everybody. It feels good to win back our country. I'll tell you, this has been a difficult and challenging year in so many different ways. And we have to think back to where we were, as the video said, in January of 2021. January 7th of 2021. They said the MAGA movement was dead. They said that Donald Trump will never have a political future.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Of course, it's the man who would never apologize for America, that stands proudly for our tradition and our history, that doesn't care about what sensibilities he offends, that calls Justin Trudeau governor, the guy that just said... And in many ways, this was an election that was more about culture than it was about politics. That it was about who are we as a people?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
What are we doing to the next generation to say that you have to be taught diversity, equity, inclusion, and critical race theory, that you have to be under this transgenderism nonsense? As a side note, by the way, as one of the first things that I hope this new administration does, we need to end the medical mutilation of our children called gender-affirming care in this country immediately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And also say, no men in women's sports ever. But understand, that was a controversial thing to say three or four years ago. It took a little bit of a I don't care energy, a little bit of a masculine chip on the shoulder to say, no, actually, you're not going to have some dude in my locker room change with my daughter. And I'm not going to allow that to happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
You see, they wanted us to be quiet and afraid and silent and subservient. They wanted us to cower into our corner. But the conservative movement has changed fundamentally. I hope you guys understand this. And we can't lose it. We must lean into it. We call the shots, not the media, not the oligarchs, not Washington, D.C. And our asks are so simple.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
The media likes to say, oh, there's radical, there's revolutionary. Here's our ask. We want a border. We want our kids to learn reading, writing, arithmetic, and not graphic pornography at the age of 11. We want our founding documents to matter much more than federal registry and bureaucracies. We believe the Constitution is the law of the land. We believe in three branches, not four.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
We also believe, I know this is so radical for them to understand, that when you appropriate money, American citizens are first, not Ukrainians. Wow, like what a concept. and you add all of that together, they are the radicals, and they have been the radicals for quite some time. And the final point I'll make is this, is the remarkable power and potency of the truth-tellers in this room.

You see, we have grown up in a time where we say, the media is the worst, the media is this. In fact, President Trump said that at his first-ever MAGA rally. Do you know where his first-ever MAGA rally was? In this building. This building was the first-ever MAGA rally. Did you know that? And the only feedback I have for President Trump is he says, the media is this, the media is that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Guys, we are the media now, not them. Their power is fading and waning. No one reads their stuff. Their subscriptions are going down. Like, CNN has less views than Hallmark movie reruns. Which, again, it's Christmas. A lot of people watch Hallmark during Christmas. Anyway, separate issue. Or is it Lifetime? I don't know. I get them both confused. Whatever. And they are increasingly irrelevant.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And what is relevant is the democratization and the decentralization. And I said it when it happened. When Elon Musk bought Twitter, I believe it was the most important singular purchase since the Louisiana purchase for this country. I truly believe that. And look at the cause set in motion that happened since Elon Musk bought Twitter. It gave us the ability to speak our mind.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Think about all the things that would have just happened without our ability to challenge it. We were able to call out the BS on the southern border. We were able to talk about the transing of our kids. We were able to talk about what they're actually teaching in our schools. We were able to actually talk about, like, hey, Kamala Harris can't speak in sentences. Let's watch this clip.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Simple, basic things. And we joke around. I do not think that we would have been able to expose the American people to how Joe Biden was brain damaged if it wasn't for Twitter or X, because the media wasn't doing their job. By the way, the media should all immediately lose their government-issued licenses day one for the malpractice they did for covering for Joe Biden's senility.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
We are in the driver's seat, and that comes with a lot of obligation. We are the cultural force. We are ascendant. The bad guys are scattered, confused, and afraid, and they will be back. And the posture should not be one that, oh, we won, and that we're the greatest, and that we're indestructible. No, it's the opposite. It should be one of humility, that we are actually in charge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And we didn't earn it, but we have an obligation to deliver. That we have an opportunity that we may never happen again. It is a once in many lifetimes opportunity to fill the government with change makers. I believe the four years of exile is the ultimate Romans 12 verse. That God will use all things, all things. for good for those who love him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Joe Biden was coming in and putting people in prison for going into the Capitol Rotunda and praying. Joe Biden was mandating the vaccine, keeping the border completely and totally wide open. We were seeing our country disappear and vanish from us. But here's where you come in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
When we got displaced from power in 2020, how many of you guys said, boy, 2020, this is the worst thing to happen. We lost our country. We were trying to see what was the takeaway here. It felt as if it was so unjust, which it was, and it was so much lying and so much manipulation, but God knew what he was doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
What he was doing is he was putting our movement in a temporary state of exile where we could become stronger, we could become better, where we could separate the frauds from the real people, we could see who people really were. where we could expand our ranks. We had to desire it more when our back was against the wall.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
If we would have won in 2020, the second term, I don't know if it would have been that great. It would have just kind of been a little bit of COVID. Okay, that's fine. And the second term is almost never as good as the first. And now we almost get two first terms. And the second one, we have a team that is ready to change the world and bring America back to greatness. I will close with this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Soak in this conference, everybody. This is the first major Turning Point conference where we can just celebrate what has been done. But also... We've got to keep our eyes on these students. They're going to go nuts these next couple of days. I tell you. But also... Go start a Turning Point USA college chapter. Go start a Turning Point USA high school chapter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Go start a Turning Point USA 5C school. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. AmericaFest is the starting point for us to take America to greater heights in 2025. Remember how lost we felt a year ago. Remember how directionalist we felt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And instead of saying, we've won everything, I could take it easy and said, is that God gave us a reprieve so that we can reload, that we can lean in, and that we can make the conservative movement stronger than ever before. And that's the resources you're going to see in the exhibit hall. There will be people here that could change your life, future jobs, future friends, maybe future spouses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
You never know. You hear that a lot. But have that posture of activism and action. We have a slate of speakers that is the greatest in the entire country. I mean, it's just unbelievable what we have here. It's going to be four days of energy and enthusiasm. And you guys help make it possible. This is the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And I can say, wow, there was a debate. Is God done with this country? And now I can say confidently, no. God is not done with America. And our best days are ahead. God bless you guys.

For every single one of you in this audience that never wavered, that always had the president's back, that continued to support him, you guys are the beginning portion of the greatest political comeback in American history. Look at what we are up against because it defies any sort of human reason. From the lawfare, they try to put Donald Trump in prison for 700 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Every major tech company banned Donald Trump from their platform. Donald Trump was banned from Facebook. He was banned from Google. He was banned from Pinterest because he's like a big Pinterest guy. He was banned from Spotify. He couldn't even listen to Phantom of the Opera. They did everything they could to make him disappear. But there was a problem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Is that you could put Donald Trump in exile at Mar-a-Lago. But you can't make 75, 80 million people disappear. Is that they can make him as if, okay, we're going to try to solve this problem. But what are you going to do?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
with the people of this country and that's where all of you that continue to do the work you entered we entered front stage and it was difficult we were told that this was never going to happen that the democrat party was immovable for all of you on campuses that continue to fight for conservative causes that were graded differently kicked out of class that were smeared that were slandered it was as if there was no immediate hope but you guys had faith
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And faith not just that we could take back our country. And if we are honest with ourselves, we cannot take credit for what happened on November 5th. The person, or more importantly, who deserves credit, is God Almighty for saving this country and giving us four years of Donald Trump. We didn't earn it. We worked out of obedience, but we were inches away from a civil war.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And Donald Trump just so happened to turn his head at a specific time to look at a PowerPoint. I mean, I've been to a lot of MAGA rallies. How many MAGA rallies does he do a PowerPoint presentation? And he just happened to turn his head at that specific moment and that bullet whizzed by and grazed his ear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And by the grace of God that we did not earn and we did not deserve, his life was spared on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania. He had every reason to play it safe after that. He had every reason to just kind of take it easy. He had every reason not to continue to campaign, to say that I'm just going to kind of hope for the best. He did more events. He said, I'm going to go do outdoor events.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Forget it. We're not going to let the bad guys win. And you could tell who a person is in a moment of crisis. You see, our leaders talk a big game, but anytime they actually feel the pressure, they fold. And we saw who Donald Trump actually is in that moment. When he fell to the floor and he rose, he spoke to all of us at a fundamental level, at a level that we can't even put into words.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
When he ascended, he said, fight, fight, fight. It was an anthem. It was a clarion call for all of us that regardless of what you are up against, this is a guy who did not need to be doing this. You know that Donald Trump could have cut a deal. Donald Trump could have cut a deal. The final warning shot was when they raided Mar-a-Lago in August of 2022.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
That was the warning shot, like, hey, you better not do this thing, run for the presidency. Cut a deal, golf for the rest of your life, or else we're going to put you in federal prison. And Donald Trump had a choice. Do I do the easy thing or the right thing? And if there is one thing that you teach your child, it's you must do the right thing, even if it is the challenging thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
He knew what he was signing up for. To be indicted by Fannie Willis, by Alvin Bragg, the show trial in New York. 700 years in federal prison. He could have just cut a deal. Guys, I'm not running for the presidency. Keep me out of jail. And every single gutless wonder politician of the last 40 years would have cut that deal. They tried to take his business empire from him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
They did everything they could to cut him off. But there's something that drives this man that is different. And it's why all of you are here. It is a love of the beautiful things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
It's a love of our home, a place that we inherited that we were sick and tired of seeing abused, to see our border wide open, to see our kids trans in classrooms, to see our beloved homeland become a dumping ground for the third world, to see our taxpayer dollars being sent to Ukraine while our southern border remains wide open.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Donald Trump loved his nation so much so that he put all of his business empire on the line so that he would go and take a bullet for you to save America for your kids and grandkids. And more than that, I want you to understand the cultural reversal that we all lived through. Because it was repeated. Now, I'm going to ask somebody, can somebody throw me your MAGA hat here for a sec?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Who wants the hat? There we go. Okay. 90 volunteers. Thank you, guys. Look at this. Who remembers back in 2016? If you wore this hat on the streets of New York, it was open hunting season. If you wore this in 2021, they would come after you. And yet, I saw something fundamentally different. It's fundamentally different and something changed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And it goes to show that the good guys can win if we push hard enough. It goes to show that we can turn the symbols where they are trying to ostracize us into symbols of victory. When I went to college campuses this last cycle, we ordered a couple hundred MAGA hats. All of a sudden, all the kids wanted them. We started passing them out. I said, okay, we'll do a couple thousand.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
I go to the University of Georgia. I'm handing out 5,000 of these things. This MAGA hat that all of you guys own went from a symbol of those people are terrible Nazis to the coolest, most desirable thing that one can wear in American politics. And that didn't happen overnight. Whose MAGA hat is this? There you go. That happened because we refused to accept the names they would call us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And we kept on wearing the hat. We refused, like, okay, you're going to call me a racist. I don't care. What else do you have? I'm going to keep wearing the hat. It became a symbol of strength. It became a symbol of resolve. It became a symbol of grit. It became a symbol of American masculinity coming back into our culture.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
It became a symbol that American greatness is what we demand, that we deserve, that we are not going to apologize for being the greatest nation ever to exist in the history of the world, that we are going to have a mass deportation effort, and that we're going to take back our nation. That hat then represented something even more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
President Trump, the greatest dealmaker that politics has ever seen, He brokered quite a deal over the summer. He said, okay, Democrats, you guys get Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. We get Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard. Let's make a deal. And that hat all of a sudden represented not just common sense, but it represented people of all sorts of different political stripes and backgrounds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
That we're coming together with their sphere of focus and influence. Maybe you are a parents' right advocate. Maybe you are here as a Second Amendment enthusiast. Maybe you are a school board member. Maybe you are a pastor. Maybe you are a Make America Healthy Again advocate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Whatever focus group that you have, as long as we can agree on the big stuff, the country's collapsing, things are amiss, we need to combine forces and defeat the incumbent regime, welcome aboard, we are going to make America great again. And what we witnessed on November the 5th, being this great comeback story, was also the result of the hard work that all of you guys did in the grassroots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
For those of you that chased ballots, for those of you that registered voters, for those of you that gave powerful sermons on the Sundays before the election, for those of you that showed up at Republican meetings at 7 a.m. to make sure that everyone had the yard signs that they need. This is your victory. You see, it is easy just to say that it's just one candidate versus another.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
What it really is, is one army of activists versus another army of activists. And guess what? We were outspent, but we outworked them this election cycle. Because we wanted it more. Kamala Harris had a billion dollars, and hey, by the way, where did that billion dollars go? She sent it to China? She sent it to Zelensky. He's got enough money. A billion dollars to do what? And yet we were outspent.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
We know it. We knew that we were up against the most powerful, well-funded machine in American political history. And it was a machine versus a movement. And the movement were people, many of us in this room, Yeah, that we're not an oligarch, not a billionaire, but you could knock on a thousand doors. You could chase a hundred ballots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
In this state of Arizona, which I, as you know, care deeply and passionately about, we made a promise. We said we are going to invest the greatest ground force Arizona has ever seen. We hired well over a thousand full-time people here on the ground in Arizona at Turning Point Action. And I can say now, Arizona was the best performing swing state of the 2024 election.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
We chased over 200,000 low propensity ballots here in the state of Arizona. And in fact, when I was, you know, Mr. President, can we have you at this event? Can we, you know, try to get you? And he said, Charlie, I will only come under one circumstance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
It is called a tribute to Arizona to honor the great people of Arizona that gave me my greatest victory ever in Arizona and brought State 48 back to greatness. And that happened because of the hard work and the grit, the resolve of all of you in this room. And it goes to show that things can change. It goes to show that we can improve this country, that we don't have to accept the premise.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
But then it brings us to today's time, because we must simultaneously look at the past, what we've been through, the present, which is celebration and giving glory to God for what was given, but also the future. Because if we let our guard down and act as if that everything is fine, the transformation of the Republican Party is not yet complete.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Thank you, Charlie! Thank you, everybody. The real thank you is the Turning Point team that worked their tail off this last year. That's who you should be applauding. By the way, I like this touch. Look at all these students that we have at Turning Point. Look at this. I like that. They helped win the election, everybody. Young people moved by 30 points this election cycle. I'll tell you what.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
You see, for those of you that follow me on social media, you know that I've been very outspoken the last week saying the following. Very simple. It's not radical. It's not revolutionary. I think it's reasonable, which is this. If you are a Republican from a deep red state and you voted for Joe Biden's nominees...
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
and you're giving Donald Trump a hard time about his nominees, we will primary you and remove you from office immediately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
And for all of those red state senators out there, let this be a warning to you, that the 20,000 people here at AmericaFest and the one million people here that are watching online and the millions of people that will see these clips, we are not going to take a Republican Party that gets in the way of the will of the people. We want a Republican Party— fights to win. And for every U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"You Can't Make 80 Million People Disappear": My Opening Speech at AmericaFest 2024
Senator out there, you must confirm Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Kash Patel, Bobby Kennedy, Pam Bondi, and Trump's entire cabinet, or you will face a primary challenger immediately. Because we want a Republican Party that is as conservative as its voters. We want a Republican Party that is responsive to all of you. We want a Republican Party that actually listens to what you want.

You have a picture of it right here. Preceded. Yeah, we have the sinners in the hands of an angry God. We have it framed here for a reason. It was the founding before the founding. It was the founding of the founding. It was the moral authority that made the American Revolution possible. Without the Great Awakening, no America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stop Waiting for Preachers to Speak the Truth — Demand It: My Interview with Pastor Allen Jackson
I couldn't agree more. And the founders agree. The Constitution was written only for a moral and religious people. That's totally inadequate for the people of any other. Our system won't work if the people don't have a heart change.

and boom you're just thinking like wait a second i remember that well that's why refi that's where they come in they are not a debt settlement company but they help you work with each borrower you individually why refi does not care what your credit score is it may not be available in all states and bad credit is accepted do you have a co-borrower why refi can get them released from the loan you can give mom or dad a break you can even skip a payment every six months up to 12 months without penalty you don't have to ignore

So you make a very profound point that the voice of, let's just say, moral guidance with the gospel also peppered in, which I do, but it's not the only thing I do, is coming from a community of podcasters, social media influencers, right? Thankfully, church attendance is going up slightly. Slightly, we've seen the last couple years, but I wouldn't give the church any credit for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stop Waiting for Preachers to Speak the Truth — Demand It: My Interview with Pastor Allen Jackson
I think it's a work of the Lord, if anything else. You and I both, I almost assuredly agree that in order to have revival, you must have repentance. In your, what, 30 years of ministry, 40 years, approximately, right? When you see mass repentance amongst the people you deal with, what message do you deliver to be able to prompt repentance from your congregation or from any individuals?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stop Waiting for Preachers to Speak the Truth — Demand It: My Interview with Pastor Allen Jackson
Is there a sermon or a message that you give, and I'm asking for a reason, where you see repentance that follows? What is the essence that a pastor needs to say or teach to foster a culture of repentance?

Allow me to interject. So there's a big pastor, Rick Warren, whatever. And I followed him growing up. And he'll always say, hey, I'm responsible for 130,000 baptisms or whatever. Good for him, right? Great. But is that, therefore, the church can say we've baptized tens of millions of people. Are you contending, of which I would agree, that it's actually much deeper than that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Stop Waiting for Preachers to Speak the Truth — Demand It: My Interview with Pastor Allen Jackson

So kind of going more to current events here, everything you teach, you always say through a biblical worldview, that the authority is Scripture. And we try to do the same here on this program always. We call them conservative principles, but if you go a layer back, they're biblical principles that express themselves via conservatism. Right.

And I will agree with what you said earlier that we're not pastors and I am not a pastor, but the result or the fruit is things that pastors should be doing. I agree.

But I will say, though, the vast majority of people are not nearly as offendable as you think they are. And they are willing to hear things that might be a little bit politically incorrect.

You have here in this prompt, and I know that we're running low on time, but I just wanted to get to two or three more topics, if that's okay. Yeah, let's roll. It says, demons and evil spirits have one purpose, to deceive, diminish, and destroy God's people. That's you and me. How do demons, what does the Bible tell us about demons, and how do they manifest in our political space, in our world?

This is so correct.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
PBD, you are spot on. So if you think of, you look at just CIA playbook psychological operations, the top five things, how do you destabilize the government? How do you try to fracture a power center? They're going to try to run this play. The first thing they have to do is they have to try to create daylight and schism amongst this power alliance of Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
It is play number one. Because think about it, that is too much. It's too much power. It is too ascendant, right? You got $400 billion. You got Twitter. You got X. You got SpaceX. You got Boring Company, Neuralink. I mean, and the world's wealthiest... And that's what's most popular, man, besides Trump. So they have to try to create a schism there. So if I was the Democrats...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
I would go all in on any means necessary of stories, leaks, you know, oh, Donald Trump is mad at, Elon Musk is mad at, and it's all BS. I can just tell you this. I've seen it with my own eyes. I know all the people involved. You know, I've gotten to know Elon. He's amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
Obviously know the president very well, that there is no daylight between the two, and they are in harmony and lockstep to continue to fulfill this mandate and the agenda. But you guys have to know this. The Democrats, that is their initial play, and it's a very smart play.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
Because all of a sudden, if you can start to divide, then you can start to pick apart the administration, turn people against each other. Because if Elon remains in lockstep, if Elon remains in harmony with our movement, we're talking about an 8, 12, 16, 20-year reign, the likes of which we could have never dreamed before. Because Elon represents the thing the Democrats thought they had.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
They thought they had full oligarch control, that every oligarch was behind the Democrats. They thought they had Bezos. They thought they had Zuckerberg. Now, they're obviously defecting away because of recent political events.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
The Democrat Party is now saying if this is sustained, they see the writing on the wall, and the earlier they could try to divide the two and create this fake fissure, this schism, the quicker they think they can get back to power.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
Very smart people. Can I tell you why you guys are absolutely right? Did you see what Elon Musk tweeted today? No. He said the following. This is exactly their goal. Elon Musk. Political and legacy media puppets all got their new instructions yesterday and are now parroting the same message to drive a wedge between the real Donald Trump and me. They will fail. Signed,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
And here's what's so great is that they were too transparent and too naked with their psychological operation that it's now backfiring that now this play will then be flushed out as you guys are obviously trying to divide us. Let's grow closer together. And that's so they overplayed their hand.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
And also we are now at a heightened state of awareness because we understand the media lies that we're constantly being opt that now the fact that he tweeted that means that they're all going to grow closer together. He's going to double and triple and quadruple down. And I can't say that. A decade ago, I don't know if that tweet would have been sent.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
It would have been like, oh, I don't know about this. I'm cautious of you. Now when the op is being run, it was so obvious. Every Democrat got their marching orders, tried to do this. In fact, they were creating images with Grok that, you know, Elon was actually president or the king and Donald Trump. All a bunch of BS.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
But now the fact that they identified it, spotted it, shows that the Musk-Trump duo is only going to continue.

I mean, Bobby Kennedy. Oh, that's my favorite. Oh. Yeah. Now, Bobby Kennedy, understand this. It's not the Department of Defense. It's not Medicare. The thing we spend the most money on in this country is health and human services. $1.6 trillion a year is the HHS budget.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
That is Donald Trump giving a middle finger to Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, the Goliath drug companies that have done so much damage to this country, and then Tulsi Gabbard. I'm a big believer that a nation that keeps secrets unnecessarily from its people cannot survive. that a government that keeps secrets from its people is an illegitimate government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
The DNI is the keeper of America's secrets. Tulsi Gabbard must be confirmed as DNI director. We deserve, as the American people, the truth of what happened on July 13th when Donald Trump got shot, the truth of what happened on January 6th and the pipe bombs and who planted them on the RNC and the DNC, and most importantly, the truth of the JFK assassination.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Well, remember, the original coroner report was completely different than what was submitted as evidence in Chauvin's time. Yeah. Yeah. So this is the third.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
Exactly. And DNI is the keeper of America's secrets. In fact, the way that DNI was chartered, it didn't exist before 9-11. It was supposed to be the superseding authority above CIA, above DHS, above Five Eyes. DNA is the central nervous system of all the intel networks, and Tulsi Gabbard can fix that. So as far as January 6th goes, all that's important.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
I think the key that we have to focus on, because you can't focus on everything, is one question. Who planted the pipe bombs? The pipe bombs are everything. Remember, they were planted at both the RNC and the DNC. We know everybody that was at the Capitol. We know grandmas that were praying in the Capitol Rotunda. We know people that were waving U.S. Constitution flags. Wait a second.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
There were pipe bombs at the place where the vice president, Kamala Harris, the soon-to-be vice president, was visiting. She visited the DNC. And we don't know who planted those pipe bombs. Those are the heaviest charges that have yet to be filed because we all know who planted the pipe bomb. Obviously.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
We know that it was probably, almost assuredly, a government contractor, an FBI agent that planted these pipe bombs at both. And who, by the way, who plants them both at the RNC and the DNC? Yeah, that doesn't make any sense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
Well, it only makes sense is if January 6th did not, if the Capitol storming did not work and they needed to create some sort of a narrative that Donald Trump's people were creating terror that day. There is so much wrong with what happened with the pipe bombs. We do not have an arrest. We don't have a suspect. Who was it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
We find that out, we can get down to the fundamental core that our government, like so many other things, was actively involved, not just covering it up, but involved in the practice and the execution of the events on January 6th.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
Less than 29 days.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
I mean, look, I pray for his safety every single day, and we should all pray for his safety. I think he's only alive thanks to the grace of God, and they try to kill him again, and they try to kill him again. And look, I mean, I don't want to say how fearful he is because Donald Trump is not an afraid man.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
He has every reason not to leave Mar-a-Lago for the next 29 days, but he's coming here on Sunday because he's not an afraid man to come address all of you. So the best way I can answer the question, though, is Donald Trump's strategy seems to be I'm not going to pick one fight. I'm going to pick every single fight. And we're going to lose some and win some. And we're going to flood the zone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
And we're going to do things that the deep state don't like. And we have to understand, like, when you storm a beach, you're not everyone's going to make it, right? But eventually some people are going to pierce through, and you're going to do some remarkable things. I mean, think about it. It's not just Bobby Kennedy. It's Tulsi Gabbard. It's Kash Patel. It's Pam Bondi.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
And then once we do what's in it, it's Russ Vogt at OMB. I mean, with Stephen Miller doing the immigration stuff,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
up with all of this yeah and that is the brilliance of the strategy the traditional republican playbook is like pick one or two controversial things and focus on it no no we're in a brave new world guys we are in a new era completely we are going to do 15 simultaneously game-changing things with people that have a dedicated scope of work and you are not going to be able to cover it you're not going to be able to stop it we are going to flood the zone because we are the media i love the

Welcome to the show, Peabody Peabody. To pick up where you left off, I want to give you credit. You predicted this. The puppet master, President Elon Musk. Two months ago.

To young men like that, that are about to grow up, they're 12, they're 13, they're 16, they're 18. You got college kids everywhere. Best advice for them. We all know college has been a scam.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
What should young men do? I think number one is that if you have drive and you have hustle, it is the irreplaceable ingredient in business and in life. People say, Charlie, how do you do all this? I mean, look, yeah, intelligence, I guess, is part of it, but you have to want it more than the person that you are up against, and that is putting in more hours and dedicating yourself to it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
There is no replacement to having this kind of all-encompassing drive of your body and your being. be a voracious learner and read as much as you can and learn as much as you can as early as possible. Find people who are really good at what you do, study them intimately, read everything about them, absorb them, become like them, and ask them good questions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
And then also, the more that you understand The forsaking of immediate pleasure is a necessary ingredient to long-term success. Delayed gratification built Western civilization. So that means, as young men, save yourself sexually for marriage. That means don't do drugs. Don't drink alcohol.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
I know this might not be the most popular message, but if you want to be successful and operate at a high frequency, PBD will attest to this, that the most successful people are not the people hanging out at 1 a.m. at the bars. It's the people that are going to bed at the right time and waking up at 5 or 6 a.m. Turning Point USA was not built at a hookah lounge. It just wasn't.

As you read, you will discover that angels and demons are not imaginary. They actually exist. You can find them playing a variety of roles throughout the Bible, and they're still influencing the world today. We don't need to be afraid, but we do need to be aware and prepared.

What we're going to do tonight is show you what we do every single month here at Dream City Church. I believe the church needs to do more in the public square. The church needs to be more vocal, not more muted. The church needs to stand strong, not just stand alongside and hope that things get better and get engaged in the public square.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
So in addition to that, Riley, you touched on this. Why does a president even need to do this? This has become a controversial issue for no good reason whatsoever, but it stems out of the trans issue. But let's kind of take a step back and further reinforce this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Not only does Trump have to take time to sign this, he now needs to use precious resources of his solicitor general and the Department of Justice to fight this. So in a lesser reported story that happened last week, Trump hosted all of the governors of the country that would come and they all came to the White House.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
They were having a dialogue and President Trump was saying, okay, as you know, we signed the no men and women's sports executive order. And he's like, oh, is the governor of Maine here? See, Trump is very smart. He watches the news. You might have known that right after Trump signed the executive order, Maine decided to defy it and ignore it.

And a biological man won, I think, a pole vaulting competition, state championship, robbing a woman. Now, this is where people say, well, Charlie, you have to have compassion. Look, I have love for all people. However, the action of cheating is not something I have compassion for. This self-indulgent narcissist would have placed 11th.

Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
In the men's division, but wins nearly a state record in the female division and wins a title. And all these other girls are second, third or fourth and are displaced because of it. The governor of Maine says this is trans progress. This is wonderful. And then Donald Trump tells his, you know, goes back and forth. And basically the governor of Maine then says, we'll see you in court.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
taunting the president. Everybody, this fight is not over. What Riley has done is we've brought it to the top level of the White House, but you have a governor of a state publicly saying, I'm going to fight you on this to make sure men keep on stealing medals from women. Riley.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
So here at Dream City Church, thanks to the Barnetts, thanks to the amazing team here, every month we bring top speakers and we talk about the issues you're not supposed to talk about in church. You see, there is a view and I believe a heresy that is growing in America and in the American church that the American church should be compartmentalized in what it does. You hear this from some pastors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And poor. It's a very poor state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And there's another one. So as you know, I got this from Matt Walsh, but I go on campuses and ask a lot of questions and I ask, what is a woman? And, you know, it goes viral. And so now they have an answer. This is the latest one. The governor of Wisconsin, by the way, this is what happens if a church is silent. You're seeing a compare and contrast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
If the church is active, we get righteousness, we get Donald Trump. Church is silent, you get Wisconsin, you get Maine. By the way, Maine is also one of the least churched states in the country. Top five. So it's Oregon, Vermont, Maine. So you can have a direct correlation, a one-to-one of the least churched and the craziest ideas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Of course, obviously, because where are people going to get meaning? They will get it out of politics. They'll get out of secular humanism. They'll get out of materialism. They'll get out of postmodernism. Man will do whatever is right in his own eyes, as the scriptures will say. And so there's a direct correlation. So Wisconsin...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
has now referred to women, they have changed it in their health guidelines, to inseminated persons. Mothers to inseminated persons, yeah. So, for mothers to inseminated persons. You're right, Juergen, yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
They'll say, we only do, and that's not true. If you say, we only do it, you're already self-defeating what the church should be doing as the Bible articulates. Oh, we only do the gospel. Okay, so how do you answer the question? As a senior pastor, if you only do the gospel, which means it's translation of, we only do things that are not controversial.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And so let's go even further into the trans. So this is what's really important is that the no men and women sports, we are winning on this and we're going to win. And the Democrats are on the wrong side of this issue politically and morally. But it is only a symptom, no different than fever is a symptom of COVID of a different underlying issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And that is the trans issue, which, of course, is a symptom of a spiritual issue. But let's let's zero in on the trans issue. Because what I find is that some people are comfortable, of course, saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, no men and women sports.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
But they get a little shaky if you talk about outlawing the surgical removal of breasts for a 14-year-old or the forbidding of chemical castration drugs for a 16-year-old. Understand that is only one symptom of an entire trans industry that has captured our public school system. our mass media, our medical infrastructure, and major portions of our government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
The entire trans movement is at odds with God's design for us in more ways than you might realize. Of course, it's the obvious of the distinction between male and female. But the fundamental promise of transgenderism is that the will of man can triumph over nature. That is the unspoken subtlety that Christians need to lean in on. They won't say you were made, but you are a certain way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
We believe you are designed. But if you want to change that, you totally can. through drugs, through surgery. What they're saying is that the will of man is sovereign over all. That is a direct contention against everything that we as Christians believe in. Riley, speak about this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Yeah. And it's, And I think that this is a, of course, it's a spiritual sickness. But to go even a step further, transgenderism and the whole movement is where we lost and we got silent as a church on the homosexuality issue. So, again, this is where I win no friends, but I don't care, right? You're all my friends. So, which is that homosexuality is a behavior. It is not an identity, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And we can acknowledge, of course, and we should have long-suffering and patience and compassion for someone that deals with the temptation to engage in that behavior. But we should reject the premise that that is who you are. And it's so important because as soon as you yield the terrain or the ground that your identity is in sin... Well, then you can't even say it's irreversible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
How do you answer, senior pastor, when a mom comes to you sobbing, saying, my 11-year-old daughter thinks she's a boy? Do you turn her around and say, we only do the gospel around here. Sorry. Do you say, well, you should get drugs because that's what the doctors say, right? Get yourself chemically castrated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It's interlocked. It's who you are. There's nothing I can do. Well, then, of course, you say they use the same language, the same way that I say that I'm gay or lesbian. I'm a man or I'm a woman because that's my identity. You see, one pairs with the other. And we must understand that God's design for us is not a mistake. It's intentional. It's for our purpose.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And everybody struggles with something. Now, the trans movement is, it would be one thing, and I'm sure all of you guys agree with this, I wouldn't say it was right or biblical or moral if a grown dude showed up, you know, wearing a dress. I would kind of look at him weird, but I, you know, would say, hey, do you need Jesus? You probably do. Like, that'd be about it, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
That has been around for everybody's life. Right, Pastor Tommy? I mean, for as long as you guys have been around, there's been kind of the one-off guy that's a guy that wore a dress. That's not the issue here. What of course is the issue is that, well, it's three things. Number one, they want to come to our kids and they get in our curriculum. That's big. But it's even more than that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It's by force and threatening and extortion, you must call him a woman. So then he bothers you. So you're watching the church service, then he'll come up, hey, you know I'm a woman, right? You must call me a woman. I thought we were minding our own business. It's not live and let live. The trans people say live and let us rule and rule over you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
How have you been treated by the trans jihadists, Riley?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Now, at some point, you as a senior pastor have to declare and speak truth to your congregation. And you can avoid that. By saying we only do the non-controversial things, what happens when the people that you are leading bring you issues that you've been avoiding? How do you answer that? You say, oh, well, you know, of course you do the obligatory things. We're going to pray for her.

We're going to counsel her. But when the rubber hits the road and they see that their senior pastor is not giving them guidance, they'll go find a secular institution. And we wonder why the church is not having the attendance numbers that it should more broadly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
So last thing I want to talk about, then I want to do some questions and open mic. Riley, there's a lot of ministry leaders, a lot of pastors here in the audience. How should they respond when they encounter, let's just keep it under 18, okay? Someone that says that, let's say it's a 15-year-old who says they're a boy or vice versa.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It's because during those moments of truth, parents and people in crisis are begging their pastors to give them moral guidance that is biblical in nature, but not be endorsed by the spirit of the times. And instead, far too often pastors are afraid that They might be canceled on social media for saying something that might be politically incorrect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
You have become kind of an unofficial expert on this, just kind of baptism by fire. How should a pastor, how should a youth leader, how should a worship leader, how should a mom, how should a volunteer encounter this topic in a Christ-like, grace-filled, truth-centric, biblical way?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
What an awful thing that has been. I'll go on about that later.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Also, I just want to reiterate, you guys, we've got to bring this energy back to your churches. This needs to be a grassroots movement to your churches. And if your church refuses to engage on these things, you need to lovingly challenge the pastor. And if they do not adjust or react, find a new church. Vote with your feet. Yes, ma'am. Let's go here and then we'll go from there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
What only matters is if you are biblically correct. Who cares if you are politically correct? And so what we do here at Freedom Night, it's been this amazing partnership, is we'll have the conversations you're not supposed to have. And this has really helped transform our state. This is helping shape city councils. It is helping young activists in high schools.

And any of you guys can come and ask questions and line up. Yes, sir.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It is helping people that are searching for what do I do next when it comes to these issues. And it's everything from apologetics to politics, from government to civics, to what does the Bible say about this? Now to be very clear, if your senior pastor is doing their job, and if you are a senior pastor, of course politics should not be the only thing you're talking about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I mean, significantly. I mean, I believe after July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania, he's a changed man. I believe that. And... I have a lot of thoughts on that. Let me just say first, I believe it was divine providence that spared Donald Trump from having his brains blown out on national TV on that day. There's no convincing me otherwise.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
That is the equivalent of like a five foot putt shot in shooting terms. Donald Trump never uses PowerPoints at his MAGA rallies. You guys have been to MAGA rallies and seen them. How often does he go through PowerPoint presentations? And now you can see here this chart over there. Something spoke to him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
But it should be one of the things that you're talking about. It should be because the Bible also talks about it. And if you want to sidestep it because you've been told the church doesn't do it, then you're a new type of pastor that America actually has not had in the past. We were founded by activist pastors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
20 minutes beforehand, and he told his team, hey, that chart we were talking about on the plane, let's get it up on the screens. They were lucky that they even had the screens because a lot of the rallies don't even have screens. And they're like, sir, and he was insistent, like laying it down, like, sir, it's too late. No, no, no, I'm not going out there until tomorrow.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
This chart that Ron Johnson sent me is up there. It's amazing. I want everyone to see it. I want the press to see it. And there was even, sir, you want to do a PowerPoint presentation outdoors in a sunny day on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania? Yeah, yeah, just do it. And so then he does it. Now, about 5% of all MAGA rallies ever have had a PowerPoint.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Every single time he'll get to it at the end of the speech. It'll always be towards the end. Okay, here. For whatever reason, he does his opening shtick, and seven minutes in, he's like, by the way, where's that thing I was talking about on the plane? Get that chart up there. Now, if Donald Trump would have not called for that, he gets blown, his head gets blown off.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
He happened to, within a millisecond of a millimeter, I have to understand, it happened to be the right millisecond with the right millimeter type tilt that his head tilt and the bullet literally grazed his ear. And for me, it was incredible because number one, how few Christians acknowledge that was a miracle was really disappointing. I'll be honest. The church completely failed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Number two, it's exactly, it's so, it confirms the truth of the scriptures, which is that miracles are not enough just to get people to believe in God. It says that repeatedly. Oh, God, send me a miracle. It's like, no, it's not enough. It's not enough. I mean, you look at God's chosen people. They saw the, the, the red sea part and they saw manna come from heaven and quail blown off course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And they saw the Nile turned to blood and they're still like, who's this God? And why are we in the desert? And this Moses guy's awful. And I want to eat meat. And they're constantly most complaining people in the history of the ancient civilizations. Right. And it just, it hits like my goodness, that it's not enough just to have miracles. You have to have faith.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Not just show, if God revealed himself to me, I would always believe in it. Actually, I don't think that's true. Because we saw it. It was the most televised miracle in history. And the church largely was, meh, couldn't care less. So God, Trump has said God spared his life. He has said that repeatedly. And Riley made a great point earlier. How he's exchanging with the press.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
How he's dealing with his adversaries. It's a different centeredness. With a poise. Of course he still does the Trump stuff that we love. And that we admire. Right? But there is a Trump 2.0. An anointing. An upgrade. That I see on this man. That. I really believe is the byproduct of divine providence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Our country was started by pastors that were willing to speak about freedom and liberty. Billy Graham was explicitly political, saying that communism was Satan's religion. How many pastors would be willing to say that today? But because of the 1980s and 90s and a new form of Christianity started to grow, that's why I love Dream City so much, is because they reject this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And President Trump has said this privately and publicly because he's the same person in public that he is in private. There's no hidden agenda, which is that God wanted me to keep on fighting for this country. He believes that he is on a mission from the heavens to save this country. Thank you.

It's a great question. I'll try to keep it as short as possible. Number one, let me just say this. that there was this urge back in the summer to get really mad at Trump because he was not as pro-life as we were. You guys probably saw that. You probably even know pastors that engaged in that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And I immediately said, wait a second, don't hold Donald Trump, who we want to become president, to a higher standard than what you hold your pastor to. So if you are allowing an everyday pastor to be silent on abortion, but you want Donald Trump to be super pro-life, He's not running for local pastor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
The pastors must be held much more accountable and be much more vocal and much more outspoken on these issues. That's the first thing. Very important. The second thing is this, is that one of my passion projects is to get the church to wake up out of its slumber. There are three types of churches.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
There are true churches like Dream City Church and many of you guys that are in the Word and teaching the Word. There are traitorous churches, ones that are completely long gone, and you know exactly what I'm talking about. They are so off the reservation. And then most churches are in the middle category. They are trembling.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
They said, all we care about is growth. All we care about is growth. And growth is important. But if you don't have a foundation, then that growth is nothing. It's a Potemkin village. And by the way, what are you growing in? Are you growing in converts? Or are you growing in disciples? Because the Bible says create disciples of all nations, not just converts of all nations.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
They shake like a leaf, if you dare mention talking about politics, because they might lose a board member. We must get the trembling to become true. And if I might add, this is a second and third takeaway item for you guys. It's not enough just that you're going to go bring this to your church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Go have coffee with two pastors in your local area that are trembling and ask them specifically with no wiggle room, are they willing to follow alongside you and do these events or do associated type events? And if not, why? There is no excuse not to speak out on these issues. And pastor on pastor dialogue is how this is all going to get solved.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It's not going to be Charlie Kirk talking to pastors. It's going to be pastors talking to fellow pastors. Because when I talk to a pastor, they always say, well, you don't know how hard it is. And in some ways, I don't.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I don't know what it's like to have to preach five services, get two hours of sleep, then do a funeral, then have to try to save a marriage and drive across town to try to do a budget meeting. That's tough. And people are called to that. I'm called to something different. But if a pastor tells a fellow pastor, like, I actually, I do know what that's like. And you should still do it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I think that's important. Final point you make, which is important, how can all faiths coexist? Look, the first and foremost thing, we are Judeo-Christian in nature. Christian with Judeo roots. Ethical monotheism built the West, but there's a very big problem with the growth of Muhammadism. I don't call it Islam. It's Muhammadism, which is incompatible with a free society.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And I think Christians have to get quickly educated on how the Islamic republics, which believe in Muhammadin jihad across the West, are multiplying in great numbers, and they are slowly cutting the throat of a once great continent of Christian Europe. And it is not just that it's secular. It will become the Islamic Republic of Europe.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And we better wise up very quickly as a church and recognize that there is a spiritual conflict that is coming right down the pike, and it is coming from the Middle East. And if we are not biblically and morally and theologically ready for it, we will be the next Europe. So that's the best answer I have to that. Thank you very much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
So I don't care if Christianity on the conservative side, I care that Christianity is on the biblical side. Right. And so conservatism properly understood is an adherence to the natural law, which the natural law of we would say it is Christian principles. Right. Honor your mother and father. Do not murder. Do not steal. Honor the Sabbath day and keep it holy. The natural law is unchanging.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
That's why we're so against transgenderism, is because it is a front to the natural law. Conservatism, when it no longer is rooted in the natural law and it becomes neoliberalism, you get the conservative of the United Kingdom, where they stand for nothing and they're basically no different than liberals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
However, this is very important, is that 1 Peter speaks extensively about this, of false teachings and false prophets and heresies in the church. You can cherry pick certain parts of the scriptures with no context, no grounding, no overarching narrative. And you can create a social justice political movement and you get that bishop that you were talking about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And discipleship requires you to go deep, not just wide. And so what we've tried to do, and it's been this amazing journey together, is unafraidably bring forward these issues where we'll have a guest, and tonight we have a great one, and then we open it up for questions. Where you can ask anything. We go into the tough stuff. And if you want more resources, you can get that. And think about it.

Or the he gets us commercial. And now let me, again, I do this every year on the he gets us thing. And I got to, sorry, Luke, I got to do it again. Because they keep on, they keep on wasting all this money on the he gets us thing. And it bothers me because it's so inherently narcissistic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
If you understand even the deeper philosophy here, it's so narcissistic as if like I'm so important and I'm the center of everything that I need a God that comes and understands me. That's the core of it, right? That like the only way I'm going to pay attention is like, yo, I'm so important. Like I don't have time for this. And you're trying to tell me that he cares.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Oh, maybe I will actually pay attention. And instead it should be like, you're nothing. You're wretched. You have a destination with eternity that's going to be quite warm. And God loved you enough to send a rescue mission to make sure that doesn't happen. So you better stop thinking about yourself and thinking about the cross. It's not that he gets us, it's he saves us. It's completely different.

And... so it just bothers me because so hyper Western narcissism to see this. And they're like, well, this is how we reach young people. No, you don't read. Again, I, I reject the premise. I actually, I could say, I actually, I know how to reach young people and these ridiculous consultants to the green family.

Don't they just know how to fleece you for 10% of a $500 million ad buy that makes Christianity look diluted and stupid. Anyway, the point being is this is that

the yes we and thank you for mentioning that riley we must stay vigilant and diligent because the enemy understands scripture we know that in matthew 4 when jesus was tempted in the desert and the misappropriation of it riley do you have something to comment on this on no you hit it okay great stay stay vigilant stay diligent yes we'll do two more questions yes
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
This is what makes sense. This is what Christ wanted the church to be. Which is, of course, to clothe the sick. And to feed the hungry. And to help the poor. and to minister to marriages that need them, and to go into prisons for people that need to hear the gospel, and all the sorts of amazing things that churches are accustomed to do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Yeah, I'll just add one thing. thing to that, which is that in a truly, in a properly structured, healthy society, women should not have to rise up. Men should pick that fight and we should go after the creeps that are redefining it. In a properly ordered society, women should not have to get involved in combat. They should not have to get involved in physical combat or in political combat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
We are here to treasure women as Christ loved the church. And you protect the things you love from nastiness. So we should be the ones that go in the arena so that the women of America shouldn't have to get all metaphorically bloodied up with this. And that's what always bothered me the most with the last question. I know that your father had to be restrained.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
But where are these dads, these 900 times that these medals get stolen? I mean, guys, if my daughter had to go like undress around a guy, I'm going to start a prison ministry and you guys can try to bail me out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
However, if we are not salt and light, which means getting outside of your doors and going into the world that needs you, what does salt and light do? What do they have in common? They change the environments that they come in contact with. If your church looks a lot more like a secular institution, and you are not trying to change the secular world, then you're not being salt and light.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And we laugh, but that's how things should be handled against creeps and perverts and people that go after our girls. Okay, last question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Yeah, I mean, that is that is the most difficult of all questions. So thank you for that. And I mean, let me start with the obvious is that DCFS has been used against Christians for the last 40 years because they say that we're not vaccinating our kids and we're not doing all this stuff. So I'm hardly one to give teeth to DCFS because, you know, oh, you're not supervising your kid.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
There's literally a mom went to jail about five years ago. because she let her kid like walk down the street to a park unsupervised. Did you guys hear about the story? It's this working mom and she literally went to jail for two weeks, single mom, because she wasn't helicoptering her kid at the local playground.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I mean, I would be gone for like a week and my parents would be like, you know, did you leave the zip code? And it's like, okay, great. And so that's a very profound question. Is it the role of the state to interfere with parents even if they are doing bad to their kids? They're abusing their kids. Yes, that is the role of the state. Is it abuse to raise a boy as a girl? Yes, it probably is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
You're being conformist and you are basically saying, I just don't want to offend the other people. Now here's the other argument. They'll say, but we must be sensitive to those that are seeking. I can speak from authority on this. Because I go to college campuses where you're not allowed to talk about any of this stuff. And I'm not saying this in a braggadocious way. You guys know my heart.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And so does it reach the level of that? These are very important moral questions that are unfolding in front of it. And I don't know the clear and crisp answer, but I can't think of anything more disgusting. There are women on TikTok, I'm not kidding, that are giving 18 months old puberty blockers and chemical castration agents. 18 months old.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
So I think at that point, that woman should go to jail and into an insane asylum and a loving Christian family should adopt those kids. And I say that with such great hesitancy knowing that the power of the state has been used against Christian parents for 40 years. Riley, do you have a thought on this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I think the buried lead of that is that if they weren't able to post on social media that they were doing it, I don't know if they'd be doing it. I think that it's not even that they're getting the bad ideas from social media, it's that they get like a mini celebrity by, excuse the language, pimping out their toddler for medieval witchcraft practices on their TikTok and Instagram.

I'm not saying this in a prideful way. Can you show me a Christian organization that can show up on a campus in 48 hours notice and get 2,000 kids there at a drop of a hat to talk about abortion, homosexuality, transgenderism, heaven, hell, sin, and the controversial issues of this time? And let me tell you why they come. They come because they know Charlie's going to hold nothing back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
They don't come because it's seeker sensitive time at University of Arizona. The truth is what they want to hear because they've had nothing but watered down lies their entire life. And it cuts straight forward to them, and they want it, and they desire it, and they thirst for it, and they say more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And yes, a couple people might be momentarily offended, and I'm not there to offend them, but if the truth offends them, that's their problem, not mine. And we say all these things in love and grace, but when somebody, for example, shows up on campus, and it's a man masquerading as a woman, I'm not going to call the individual a she. I refuse to lie because we as Christians should not lie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I'm not going to use the pronouns of their choosing like some of the Christian ministries say today. Well, you should try to use the pronouns as they see fit. It's a bunch of nonsense. You guys know that? No, you should speak the truth in love. By the way, God did not make a mistake when he designed every single one of us, male or female. That's not a mistake upon your design.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And so what I'm getting at is that I think this overemphasis on seeker sensitivity has led us to believe that everyone's going to march out of your church if you dare engage on these topics. Now, as a sub point, if they all march out of your church and you're speaking truth, blessed are you who stands for truth, even though the world might not want to stand alongside of you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
So that's not a premise I even agree with. However, it's even easier than that. The churches that are growing like crazy and look at this crowd here tonight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
The churches that are having parking problems like Pastor Juergen are the ones that are willing to contest for righteousness and the ones that are willing to say male and female that abortion is murder and willing to say that we should have a border and willing to say that no Christian should ever vote for the American Democrat Party. Sorry I had to say that. But anyway...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And by the way, if that bothers you, then you've got to come up to the mic later and tell me why a Christian should vote for the party that wants post-abortion murder, transgenderism, chemical castration, kidnapping our kids, the abolition of the American family, the destruction of the American education system, all the while saying that they're for tolerance, diversity, and peace.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
Those are not Christian values. They're antithetical to Christian values. Anyway, so the point being...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
is we have to rethink what the church actually is the church is not a place to come and feel good about yourself that can happen along the way this is where I got in this debate recently with a pastor he said but Charlie what you're talking about it's really against this idea of affirming people that come to church of course it is What about Christianity is about affirmation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It's about realizing that we are nothing and we need the cross. That we are sinners and we need Jesus. It's not about affirming where you are. It's about realizing that we can't possibly live up to God's perfect standards that he has for our life. It's not about being affirmed and telling how great you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
It's about going through metaphorical spiritual surgery and going through the difficult times for a pastor to point out, no, you're not doing this right, this right, this right, this right. By the way, there's a God who loves you. He sent his son on a rescue mission. Let's make sure you give your life to Christ and we live like Christ and all that we possibly can.
The Charlie Kirk Show

That's what the church used to be and what it should be because everyone says, and I'll close with this, then we'll invite Riley on here. The number one question I get from people is, Charlie, when are we going to see revival, revival, revival, revival? I see little pockets of it, but everyone is missing is the necessary but tough cough syrup that you need to take to get to revival.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
There's only one thing that can lead to revival, and the scriptures tell us. You cannot get to revival if you don't have repentance. And repentance requires to believe that there's a God who doesn't just love you, but he judges you as well. And there's a way he wants you to live. And then you say, oh my goodness, it says in 2 Chronicles, those people that turn their face to me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And that means that you must understand that I am not God. He designed us to live a certain way. We're falling short of his wishes and our commands. And out of repentance, then you get revival. You see, we want all the sweet stuff without any of the hard stuff. We want millions of people to give their life to Christ saying, I'm saved. And then you ask them, what are you saved from?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
How can you possibly tell them to give their life to Christ if they don't know about sin? Why do you need a savior if you don't talk about sin? You don't. Jesus is just like Buddha or he's just like, you know, eat, pray, love or any of the other kind of Easter meditative things that they're talking about in the modern day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
No, it's not that Jesus just had good ideas or he was a philosopher or worthy of studying. It's that he saves you from your wretched, depraved self so that you can live forever. And you only know that if you talk about the nature of man. So with that... We're going to get into all that tonight. And I just want to thank Dream City for allowing us to have this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
This has been four years in May that we've been doing this. It's been well over, I think, 40 of them that we've done, right? Joe, 35 to 40. They have been seen over a billion times on social media. And here's the call to action. Your church should be doing this once a month. You can call it Freedom Night. You can call it Liberty Night. I don't care what you call it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
But once a month, you should be having the type of conversations that push the boundaries of what a church normally in the American context should do through a biblical lens. Where people can ask questions Socratically. The same way that Christ our Lord did. Say, come on up here and tell us what you believe. And we're going to talk about it biblically.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I can tell you, we started with a small little group at Freedom Night. And now we have standing room only. And tonight we have an amazing guest that embodies. I think it's one of the first times we're inviting somebody back to Freedom Night. Who embodies the kind of courageous spirit. She was an NCAA championship athlete. She did not do any TV interviews. She wasn't seeking fame.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
She wanted to be the best of her craft. And because the church was largely silent and we punted on the issue, a biological man masquerading as a woman
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
with camouflage on all of a sudden came in and stole a national championship from her the NCAA was cowardly pastors and local area wouldn't touch it and she decided to have this singular focus issue saying no men should not be in female sports period and she has done more advocacy on this topic Than any other person. And it really goes to show that God can use anybody for a greater purpose.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
You focus on one thing that is rooted in scripture. One thing God's designed. We are not going to compromise on the singular thing. Understand five years ago, people were afraid to even talk about the trans thing. They were like, oh my goodness, it's a new civil right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
And slowly but surely, the truth teller started to demonstrate the demonic confused nature of the trans movement, of how it's corrupting our children, how it is making sure that they'll never have, you know, livelihoods or futures, how it's eliminating female sports. And we crawled out of it. And Riley traveled the country and speaking and did tons of Turning Point USA events.

And so, Matt, to kind of further go into this, though, and ask a very obvious question, we are able to isolate them now with humor and wit and, honestly, I think good-hearted ridicule because these kids, when they go after kids, they should be ridiculed. You do not go after the children of a society without pushback.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Christ said it's better for them to have a millstone hung around their neck and thrown into the lake, the sea, than to go after the least of these. And so they should be ridiculed. But Matt, I want you to go deeper into something that you said. How is it that this movement that is so philosophically and spiritually dark is That is so obviously easy to refute with a sentence like yours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
That one that the majority of the country is now moving against. How did they get so deep in our institutions, man? How did they advance so far?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
into into our territory because now we have to go through what is going to be everybody probably a 10 to 15 year project of an exorcism to kick these individuals from how did this happen matt was it is it as simple as what we were just asleep at the wheel or is it something more more than that i wish that we that i could say we were asleep at the wheel because if you fall asleep at the wheel it's it's not necessarily your fault that's something that happens accidentally
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
I have to brag on Matt here because Matt has a great way about him and. he's incredibly stoic in the face of the most insane left-wing nonsense. Matt Walsh has been one of the most, if not the most important voices pushing back against trans ideology in this country over the last five years. And that's important for a couple of reasons. Obviously, it's important morally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
But going back five or six years ago, everybody... The trans topic, we were in the ideological minority. There were not a lot of people speaking out against it. There were not a lot of people understanding really where this came from. They were framing it as a new civil rights issue of our time.

And Matt Walsh not only spoke out against it, but I think had one of the most powerful films ever asking the question, what is a woman? And so, Matt, you deserve a lot of credit for this. You really do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
It's the sin of omission. It is the sin of silence, is that when you are silent, you're actually saying everything. When you are silent, you are speaking to your congregation that what you are omitting doesn't matter. And so many pastors, unfortunately, will escape by and be like, well, I don't mention the controversial stuff, and so therefore I stay away from it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
That's exactly what is wrong, is that you have to stand up and be counted. There is no middle ground. It's either you're a yes or you're a no on these very morally important issues. So, Matt, I do want to be able to get to one or two questions, but I have two questions, and I want to go one at a time. If a pastor in this audience...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Privately, a mom comes up to the pastor and says, Pastor, my 13-year-old is a girl who thinks she is a boy. How should a pastor in this audience deal with that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
And I'll add to that. Every pastor here, I encourage you to buy Dr. Miriam Grossman's book, Lost in Transnation. She's an actual clinician. She's not just a theoretical thinker about this. She deals and treats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
kids with gender dysphoria understand up until recently we had a whole treatment protocol for this which was very simple it's called watchful waiting we believe that puberty was the solution not the problem and usually kids usually like 99 of the time they grow out of this thing and understand this here's some facts about transgender ideology when it comes to young people 75 are girls
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Seventy five percent. Why does that matter? Well, girls are far more likely to get involved in social contagions, whether it be cutting practices, whether it be dressing to be able to accommodate their peers, social stigmas. They're far more likely to to. be pressured by cliques or social stigmas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Young ladies are in a very difficult time of their life at 12, 13, 14 years old, and the trans ideology swoops into them. Fact number two, there's almost, Matt would know this even better than I would, but according to Dr. Miriam Grossman, she's almost never seen a case of a kid that falls victim of transgender ideology or
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
that does not also have autism or other underlying neurodivergent type disorders. This is very important, everybody. So if you have a kid with autism, it's a higher likelihood that they're going to be able to fall victim to the transgender social contagion. What are we getting at before I continue the next point? It shows that it's actually not something within them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
This is an externally received communicable mind virus that kids catch through a screen. They catch through a teacher. It's not something in them they've always had. It's something they get like COVID, but it's far more dangerous and deadly than COVID for our nation's youth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Number three, which is very important, which I can't, if you are a pastor, you need to get on your hands and knees and pull every possible thing to prevent a parent from from sending that kid to a medical doctor. I don't care if it's been their pediatrician since they were six months old.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
99% of them are being trained in bad medieval witchcraft science that says that they should go on hormone blockers. They could be the best meaning kids possible. The guidelines of the American Pediatric Association It will take your breath. Am I right on this, Matt? Absolutely.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
It will take your breath away because the mom will say, oh, well, you know, my daughter's 13, but we're going to go see our pediatrician. She has a whole plan. The goal will be hormone blockers and a psychiatrist, and the psychiatrist will immediately say, Lupron intervention, surgery, eventually no breast by the age of 16. Not an exaggeration.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
And that pediatrician is schooled to believe that it is a body disorder when it is a brain disorder. The final point I'll make is this. is that that first interaction, Dr. Miriam Grossman crushes it in her book. That first interaction means so much. You need to tell the parent this, that you need to ask your daughter, it's most likely a daughter, a ton of questions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Really, where'd you hear about this? When did you start thinking that? Be infinitely curious about the condition. The more curious you are about the condition, all of a sudden, all the defenses start to go down. It's very tempting to be hostile to a kid who thinks they're trans. But curiosity, all of a sudden, it feels okay. You're loving them. You're learning. Oh, really?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Are any of your friends thinking that way? We have learned the same way that we have outbreaks of certain diseases. We see clusters of transgenderism. In the Pittsburgh greater area, we saw it, where like half of the girls in one middle school all of a sudden became trans. And guess what? All the psychiatrists were affirming it. Because you can't challenge it.

Thank you. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Yeah. And so just, I want to get into some of the real fundamental questions here around this, because every pastor here is going to encounter this issue on a micro and a macro level. So every pastor here will encounter a parent that comes with a trans kid and how they deal with that. I want to talk about that. And then the macro, how do they deal with it politically?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
But I hope you guys understand that in a short period of time, with just a little bit of pushback, what we have been able to do to put the trans movement on defense is profound. This is a multi-billion dollar industry that I believe is demonic at its core, that is going after the children of this nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
to chop off their breasts, to surgically mutilate them, to against God's natural design, treating it like a body problem when it is a brain problem. And so let me ask a more fundamental question. You get this question often, Matt. Where did transgender ideology originate?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
And so it seems as if, though, that the trans movement hit an acceleration point in the early 2010s, 12, 13, 14, with the proliferation of social media on our kids' smartphones, but also where the medical industry seemed to realize that there were tens of millions, hundreds of millions, billions of dollars to be made coupled with actual transgender ideological zealots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Can you explain all these different buckets? There's the social media component, which is the social contagion. Then there's the medical industry that sees these kids as annuities. But then there's also like firm religious believers in transgender ideology that think that it's almost a Gnostic spirituality. Can you speak to the Gnostic spirituality part of it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
And so to go even further, I hope you guys internalize what Matt just said. There's more profundity in that couple minute explanation, almost anything you'll hear in American seminaries when it comes to the transgender cult, what you just heard. The battle between good and evil seems to be escalating.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
It is easy to blame politicians, government, or poor leadership, but behind all of that is a spiritual battle. Pastor Alan Jackson's new book, Angels, Demons, and You, talk about the reality of this battle and the spiritual realm that exists around us. It has a real impact on us every day. As you read, you will discover that angels and demons are not imaginary. They actually exist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
You can find them playing a variety of roles throughout the Bible, and they're still influencing the world today. We don't need to be afraid, but we do need to be aware and prepared. Angels, Demons, and You provides valuable insight, practical tools, and biblical truth to help you recognize the spiritual battle around us and become a difference maker in our generation.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Gnosis, by the way, is the Greek word for mind. It's a belief that the mind and the body and the soul are all kind of separate pieces. We as Christians completely reject this, to the record. We believe that the body and the soul are actually really connected. That's why in the scriptures it says that our bodies will be resurrected again. That our bodies actually have very physical meaning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
That it says your body is the temple of the Lord in 1 Corinthians. That this Gnostic belief, though, is that the sense that you have a soul that is separate than your body, then you can kind of be something that you physically or even independently or objectively observed that you are not. So you could even be an animal. And you guys laugh. I'm going to tell you a real example.

Donner's Grove South High School. I think I got this correct. In the middle school, the junior high, in the bathroom, they have accommodations for kids to be able to use like kitty litter because the girls are identifying as cats. That is an old Gnostic belief, by the way, of people that would say that I'm just a reincarnated animal. And it's a form of paganism, Hinduism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Man Who Stopped the Trans Juggernaut: Live with Matt Walsh at the Pastors Summit
Again, this is nothing new. Again, you know what changed all this? Christianity changed all this. We're the first religion to come through and say, no, there's one God. It's Yahweh, Jehovah. This polytheism is a bunch of garbage, right? So anyway, Matt, can you riff on that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Hey everybody, my speech at the Hillsdale Leadership Seminar. People say it was one of the best speeches I've given in recent memory. I tend to agree, and I don't say that lightly. I think it was laid out correctly and had the right framing and the right discussion and the right diagnosis of our problems. So I think you're going to enjoy it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Because our document starts morally clear, we the people of the United States. Not the we, the USAID, you know, purple-haired jihadis that are sending money to Kazakhstan to trans the kids, right? That's not how it works, actually. And these sound like such fundamental basic questions, but we're about to get down to the root of the matter. You know why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But I'm on pace to complete every single Hillsdale online course, so I think I'm making up for it. And I visit college campuses, so you don't have to. I could tell you that if every kid who's currently in college took the Hillsdale online courses instead of going to that four-year college, America would be in a much better place. Much better place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Because our leaders have prolonged the inevitable for decades. George W. Bush did not have the moral clarity or the gusto to pick this fight. In fact, he grew the Leviathan and grew the administrative state. We have new agencies because of Republican presidents. So this has been a fight that has been delayed for far too long, and this is where it is all heading.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And so when it comes down to who is the sovereign, it comes down to, well, we the American people elected a president to be able to do the job. And it still baffles the mind where I hear in some of these meetings when I'm in D.C., well, you can't fire these federal workers. You could put them on administrative leave. And how many of you guys...
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
in your corporate career or you run a business, what could ever operate that way? Nothing. And yet we put the federal government in a completely different bucket for no good constitutional reason. And then that goes to the final question and really the big question that ties to the other two, which is, is the president in charge of the executive branch?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And this is known as the vesting clause of Article II of the U.S. Constitution, which is all authority is invested in a president. That's it. Pretty simple. One sentence, a lot there. And so, yes, the president has the authority to say, USAID, you don't go there anymore. He has the authority to send Elon Musk like a tomahawk missile into every single federal agency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
By the way, how entertaining is this? It's like one of the greatest things ever. I want you to understand what's going on here is that you have Elon, who I just have grown to just adore. He's become a friend. I think that when the history books are written, he's going to go down as one of the most interesting, consequential, business titan political figures ever to exist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
So here's a guy that has more money than you could ever imagine. He could buy Spain. Literally, if you look it up, he could buy Spain, okay? Not a joke. I think the GDP of Spain is like $150 billion. You could just, you know, buy it. And that's like a portion of his wealth. And he's literally sleeping on the floor of the Eisenhower Executive Office building, And it's not just him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Here's the best part. He has this platoon of these super geniuses. And I mean like super geniuses. I mean, these guys make Mensa look like they don't know what they're talking about. And he'll walk into these federal agencies and he'll be like, where are the passwords? How do you send an email? How do you do the accounting? Has anyone ever looked at the books here? Just one example.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
He did the social security kind of peripheral audit. There's like 140-year-olds still getting Social Security checks. I can just see the New York Times headline, Elon Musk so cruel, cuts off payments to 140-year-olds. You can just see the headline right now. How dare he? Now, if any of you guys are 140, I want to meet you, and you can come on my show, for the record.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
So, by the way, if you think our Social Security rolls are messed up, how bad do you think our voter rolls are? It just makes you think. Maybe you are one of the borrowers in America that has a private distressed student loan. If so, listen carefully. Did you know that private student loan debt in America totals about $300 billion? About $45 billion is labeled as distressed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
YREFI does not care what your credit score is. When the payment on your distressed or defaulted private student loan is so big that you can't ever get ahead in your finances, YREFI is surely your best option. WhyRefi can save you thousands of dollars by refinancing and even lower your total cost.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
We might have some ideas now for this new administration. I just want to brag on Hillsdale. So I wrote a book called The College Scam, and I sent a copy to Dr. Arnn. I speak extensively about how great Hillsdale is and how it's the exception of what I talk about in the book.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
WhyRefi refinances distressed and defaulted private student loans, which are different from federal loans. Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless. They've even lost hope. WhyRefi gives you a light at the end of the tunnel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Let's face it, if you have distressed or defaulted private student loans, nobody is coming to bail you out and bankruptcy is not an option anymore. but you could take charge of your situation by contacting YRefi. So go to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com. They've been great supporters and great partners. That is YRefi.com. Y-R-E-F-I.com. YRefi.com.

"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But Elon Musk is getting down to the heart of the matter. Why? It's so simple. Elon Musk sees the world very clearly because Elon Musk has actually built things And so for him, it does not compute. It's like a failure to launch in his mind where if at Tesla, if he wants to get rid of 10,000 people, he can get rid of 10,000 people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
At SpaceX, if he wants to get rid of a bad employee, he can get rid of a bad employee. In D.C., you get rid of bad employees by putting them in charge of the CDC and running all of your public health guidelines. You fail upwards. That's what you do. You actually ascend by failure. It's a gravitational pull in the wrong direction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And so it is a cultural sea change top to bottom that we are experiencing. And they're going to fight with everything they possibly can. If you think they fought hard to prevent President Trump from reobtaining office, this is way worse than they actually thought this was going to go. They thought it would be like mass deportations. Notice that like no one's talking about that anymore. Yeah, sure.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Take them. Go away. But this Doge thing. It's like all the controversial stuff that we thought was going to be big fights kind of gets to go on the extras. By the way, it's a brilliant strategy by President Trump, might I add, because everyone's talking more about Elon than President Trump, and President Trump's able to kind of not be attacked for the first time in a decade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
It's pretty smart, right? And Elon, I think, feeds off of it. It's like a life force thing to him. The whole thing is just phenomenal. And so...
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
the reason they're fighting so hard on doge and on what we are experiencing is we actually have a chance to do the thing that people thought that could never get done which is we actually have a chance to reorient the ship back to the founder's intent to restore the three branches of government to articulate what article two actually is and i think we have a shot at doing it
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Article I is the hardest because Congress is a disaster. But I think the Supreme Court is actually willing to hear this out for the first time in a generation. I think the Supreme Court is now willing to hear the arguments. What do you mean you're an independent agency? No, you're not an independent agency. You serve under Article II.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And we've seen with some decisions, the Chevron deference decision, the EPA decision, the courts are signaling that they're ready for these monumental type cases. And what that means, everybody, is that the administrative state Leviathan, this regime that has been swallowing our freedom and liberty post Woodrow Wilson, for the first time, we can reverse it. We can go back to where we came from.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And I can tell you from firsthand experience, having visited and spoken at and intimately involved with organizing students on over, well, we're on over 1,000 campuses. I have visited well over 175 of them personally, that there is no place like Hillsdale College. The students are different. They're focused on the right things. They are looking up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But it's not just going to happen because of one election. It will only happen with a free citizenry demanding it out of your leaders with vocal support on a daily basis, educating the masses of what's really going on. And I believe we have a shot at doing it because we're able to communicate to millions of people in a moment's notice without having to go through the Washington Post.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
I'm able to open my phone right now. I could tweet to millions of people or post something on Instagram or Facebook about any of the guardians of the censors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Elon Musk is able to do these X spaces at midnight where he's just rambling for a couple hours, but he's like going through documents, talking about all the waste that he found, and literally like 5 million people are listening to these things. That's more than the CNN airport audience is for a decade. And he just goes through this stuff because now we can go direct to consumer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But let me clarify that. We can go direct to citizen. And that's the true revolution that's occurring, is that we are taking the bold and courageous move that is going to put a lot of people's lives and fortunes and sacred honors at risk to say, subject no more, citizen. Because we have lived as subjects for the last couple of years, whether we realize that or not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
We have not been citizens, which is co-rulers or co-authorities of our own nation. And that's where the Trump thing gets way bigger than Trump. And honestly, God bless this guy for being the man in the arena that Teddy Roosevelt has always talked about, having the courage and the stamina.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
God bless him for not taking the deal where they said, you know, don't run for president and just being kingmaker and doubling down, getting shot, his whole business empire nearly taken from him, and now getting into what is the most high-stakes fight constitutionally, morally, and civilizationally. And you guys know this. Europe is not going to save a free society. Europe is gone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
It's a husk of its former self. We've got the Chinese Communist Party rising up. If it's not us, it's nobody. As Dr. Arnett said, it is the last best hope. And it's only us if we can actually win the domestic war first, if we can restrain this beast that has been slowly taking over every one of our ways of life over the last couple decades and especially the last 100 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And then I want to talk about one other thing about this, and then we could do, I think they said questions at some point, I don't know the format, is this, which is that I'm a big believer in God's providence over our nation. I believe that God has his hand on Donald Trump, and I believe that God has his hand on this country. I really believe that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And I believe that, as the founders did, that there is a providential element to all of this. And I remember after Donald Trump was displaced from office in the 2020 election, we were all like, is the country over? And we believed through faith, as it says in Romans 8, 28, that God will use all things for good for those who love him, that maybe there is a plan here that we don't understand.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And I know a lot of you know this and few people say it publicly, but I think it's worthy of a teaching to our kids, especially because we thought it was the worst thing. But now we look back, we say, honestly, exile might've been really good for us. Those four years off, might have actually been grace, not judgment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
They're asking questions that are deeper in nature. They could tell you why they're there. So I'm visiting. We have our campus tour that's restarting on Thursday. Really, I'm excited to kind of go back out there. And when I ask these students, I say, why are you here? They'll immediately give you an answer that is industrial in nature. I'm here to be able to get prepared to get a job. I say, okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Like those four years where we weren't in control of everything actually made us stronger and tougher, made us have more resolve, made us find out what we're really made out of, made us shrink our ranks away from the people that were summer soldiers, that were sunshine patriots. We told those people, go away, we'll call you back when everything's fixed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
I think President Trump in exile, when he faced the entire power of the federal government, became a stronger person. And not just him, but his senior staff that was around him, from Stephen Miller to Susie Wiles, this whole team, they were around the table in Bedminster, New Jersey. I was not there, but I know about it very intimately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
When President Donald Trump was joking and playing Phantom of the Opera, drinking Diet Coke, when all of a sudden his phone rang, And they said, you're indicted. And in that moment, I mean, it's never happened before in American history. And then this avalanche of indictments came after that. And Jack Smith launched, you know, the lunatic thing. And his staff had a choice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Do you jump ship or do you lean in? I think that's a lesser appreciated element of all this, is the people that stood by him, his inner team. Because people say, Charlie, how are they so well prepared for all of this? Who is doing all this work? Who's really in charge? Okay, Trump's in charge, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But he's empowered the people, his lieutenants, that were around him when he got that phone call in Bedminster, New Jersey. He's empowered the people that were around him when his arraignment was read to him. And he said, if we ever get power back, you know what to do. You're going to listen to the voters, and we're going to go 10 out of 10 velocity right out of the gate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
What you are seeing is the pent up of an entire community of people, about a couple dozen people, that saw their boss get shot. That saw the president and our entire country, in my personal opinion, literally come millimeters away from the country disintegrating into chaos, oblivion, and discord. I hate to say civil war, but I think we all know that it might have gone to that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And it makes us really consider, as the history books are written, that, boy, the Democrats should have let us win in 2020. that them doing what they did in the 2020 election, zucker boxes, mail-in ballots, might go down as one of the dumbest things the Democrat Party has ever done. Because what they have to reap right now is a completely different conservative movement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
It is completely different. It is 3.0. It is one that plays to win. It is one that is well-staffed. It is one that understands the odds and the stakes. And we saw what we were up against. We saw it intimately. And we looked over the abyss. We said, no thanks. We're going to go back to restore this beautiful country that we love. And that's where all of this comes together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And I believe you guys have an obligation to continue to support Hillsdale College, to fight for a free society, because that's really where this is all going to be connected. My role these next couple of years, I'm not going in government. I have no role in the government. I'm an advisor. I'm a friend. I'm a fighter. I'm a warrior.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
I'm going to keep on doing the grassroots movement with young people. Most importantly, I'm going to keep on trying to keep people informed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
what's happening here so this thrust this moment does not get lost because this is a once in many lifetimes opportunity a moment to reclaim what has been given to us that we did not earn that we do not deserve to get us back on the path of the divine providence that the founders talked about in our birth certificate the declaration of independence and it's only possible in my opinion thanks to hillsdale college and all the work that you guys do here thank you and let's do questions if time allows thank you
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
I ask a Hillsdale College student, why are you here? They say, well, I'm here to learn out how to be a good citizen. I'm here to learn what it means to be a good person, to grow in character and faith and duty.

"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College

The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Yes, there is. And let's just kind of go in some of the details of what President Trump's going to try to do from the top down. Number one, eliminate the Department of Education and get completely rid of it. It never should have existed. It should not exist right now. The second of which is you have to stop the flow of money. This is where enforcement's going to come in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Now it's going to come down to an enforcement question where President Trump signed an executive order saying no taxpayer money is going to go to any school that teaches critical race theory, DEI, transgender ideology, which obviously ASU does. They have Entire departments dedicated to this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And so it's now going to come into the enforcement of a couple test cases saying, no, you're not going to get federal money, Pell Grant money, research money, any subsidized student loans for that. That's only going to solve it partially. And this is why free citizenry is so important, is we need to ask the question of these bloated state institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Their financial model is actually completely corrupted. If you take out subsidized student loans, And the over-certification of what education has actually become, and that's why Hillsdale is so important, is that Hillsdale refuses to scale to just be an ASU, 100,000 kids on campus, because then you lose what college actually is, which means partnership.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And I asked an average college student at Arizona State University, Harvard or the West, down the street here, and let's just be honest, it pales in comparison to Hillsdale, for many reasons, let's just be honest. And I asked them, I said, what are you reading? And they could maybe recite one or two books. At Hillsdale College, they know the texts intimately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
I can answer that question now, Dr. Ren, for the record. It means partnership. Because you lose that community. And so... In my opinion, phase two and three needs to be an all-out campaign, understanding that these colleges have become massive, bloated bureaucracies in their own states, but also, even more importantly, they're training factories for the administrative state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And two, they are petri dishes for all the worst ideas that then metastasize into corporate America, law enforcement, military, so on and so forth. And the other point I'll make is, You go to Hillsdale College. Do you notice how aesthetically beautiful it is? It's a beautiful campus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Did you know that in a lesser appreciated executive order, President Trump on day one signed an executive order saying build beautiful buildings again? It was an executive order for all federal bureaucracies. Now you can laugh, but I encourage you next time you're in D.C. to drive by the Department of Education. It looks how it operates. It looks... like a drawer cabinet.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
It looks like a file cabinet, I should say. It doesn't point up. There are no circles. It simply squares. It looks like a place where widgets are made. Because that's what they think education is.

But no, they look at themselves as carpenters, whereas Dr. Arnn would say educators are more like gardeners, where you let the kid grow into what they can become. Yes, next question.

taking I'm just saying I I trust him but I'm getting some imperialistic you're you're super sweet um thank you so no no I mean that that's great I I hear that I'm not going to speak on behalf of the administration Canada is you know we will let that one be Gaza I'm going to show my friend Josh Hammer Josh you're speaking tomorrow about all this right Israel and all that so I will

And it's not a mistake because it all starts from Dr. Larry Arnn. Hillsdale was a good college when Dr. Arnn took over. Now it is the best college in America after what Dr. Arnn has done over the last couple of decades. It has turned into a cultural powerhouse because, as you well know, Hillsdale, there's a waiting line to get in. The standards keep on getting higher and harder to get in.

yield to the expert. Josh will handle that extensively. Greenland, I will defend, actually, because I think Greenland makes a lot of sense for a lot of different reasons. It has incredible rare earth natural mineral deposits. It's geopolitically really situated. China wants it. Russia wants it. And also, we've been trying to get Greenland for well over 100 years, actually 150 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And I could tell you, having visited Greenland with Don Jr., It's one of the most beautiful places I've ever been in more ways than one. I will just kind of caution, and if you like imperialistic, let me say this, is that President Trump is a dealmaker. He's a negotiator. And you ask for the moon, and if you get Greenland in return, maybe the next national leadership seminar can be in Nook.

That is – so I actually don't have insight into that, but let me first give Trump credit for revoking a separate executive order that I did not mention, which was verboten and untouchable. My friend Jeremy Carl, who's written the best book on anti-white racism – you're talking tomorrow, right, Jeremy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
He's amazing – which is that President Trump reversed the executive order requiring affirmative action. for hiring practices in the federal government. That one deserves incredible credit. That took so much courage to do, and no one's talking about it because he's doing so much other stuff. Understand that the affirmative action regime was never passed by Congress.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
It was done by executive order, saying that we're only going to hire in federal hiring practices based on skin color, not merit, because of executive order. I can't speak on the unionization one. I'd have to look more into that, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's being contemplated. But if a president does it, a president can undo it, as you can see by USAID.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
That was done by executive order by JFK. Why can't you just fold it into the State Department? Okay, I think we have time for one or two more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Yeah, it's a good question. I think that President Trump has alluded to this, and I think that the current economic nonsense that has been handed to us by the previous let's just say, easy, cheap money regime, is that there might have to be a moment to take some cough syrup, metaphorically, economically, before we can get to some wellness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
An economist friend doesn't think a soft landing is possible. You guys debate that amongst yourselves. However, I will say this, that President Trump using tariffs is getting a very, very bad rap in some financial circles or markets. But it's a forcing function to re-domicile labor and industry back to this country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And in order to actually have a country, you have to make things, not just be a series of hedge funds and tech companies and import all your plastic from China. And I'll give you just one example.

You cease to be an independent, autonomous, sovereign country if you're dependent on a nation 5,000 miles away to be able to get basic goods and necessities. So how much pain there will be, I don't know. However, I will say there are a lot of major companies that are already talking about redomiciling the production of their assets or their goods.

But the millions of people like myself that are taking these online courses is dramatically improving our chances of restoring a free society.

Vance is the youngest vice president since Eisenhower and one of the youngest vice presidents in American history. J.D. Vance is, I think, 40 or 41 years old. He just turned 40, right? He just turned 40. And so this next generation of conservatives is operating with urgency and is taking over D.C. for the better. The old guard is going to do everything they possibly can.

I mean, Mitch McConnell, I'll let you guys fill in the blanks. I think it's very disappointing for this reason. I have much stronger opinions on Mitch McConnell than what I'm about to say, but I'll give you one that is very agreeable. It's very disappointing that...
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Mitch McConnell for years would go around and preach to all of his Senate Republican colleagues, we must stick together, we must stick together, I need your vote, we must stick together. But now in circumstances where we need him to keep the conference to stick together, he's the odd man out. And I think that tells us a lot about Mitch McConnell.

They should learn what they're taking an oath towards, and no better course does that than the Hillsdale Constitution 101 course. The impact is beyond just what is happening in Michigan. It is digital. It is online. And I think it's even deeper than some of you guys that are on the board even recognize or realize. Because it's not just how many people are taking these courses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
It's the state legislature. It's the senators. It's the congresspeople. And I'm going to build out that argument in a second because the philosophical basis of this new administration is largely an outgrowth of from the hard work that Hillsdale has been doing over the last couple decades. So it's impacted my life. I have, as Dr. Arndt said, I've completed over 30 of them.

for any of you that have kids or grandkids, to tell them that if they want special privileges to go on a trip or if they want phone time or video games, tell them, okay, you have to take a Hillsdale online course. I'm telling you what we're doing at Turning Point USA because they have all these ridiculous federal holidays off. We're totally restructuring on Juneteenth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
We're not giving all those days off. I'll say, however, we will give you Constitution Day off if you take the Hillsdale online course on Constitution 101. So that is now practice at Turning Point USA. But I'll tell you this, that as you take these courses, you realize how little our own elected leaders know about the country that they're supposed to be protecting and they're defending.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
how little the people that go on TV and start yammering about, you know, we're all about freedom and liberty, and they can't tell you anything about the structure or the form of the U.S. Constitution or what we're fighting for. And I think we're finding our way back as a country. I think that we are finding our way back to foundational roots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And part of that, by the way, is being driven by one of the most unusual forces, which is that this is a bottom-up, youth-led political movement. That if you look at every single demographic in the 2024 election, the one that moved most dramatically and surprisingly were voters under the age of 30. These are people that traditionally would be... Card-carrying members of the American left.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Now, Donald Trump did not win the youth vote in every single state. And I will tell you one state he won the youth vote in, and I give Dr. Arnn all the credit. He did win the youth vote in Michigan. It's true. It's 100% real. Donald Trump won the youth vote in Michigan.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But all kidding aside, this movement of young people is largely driven by them being raised in the excesses of what we call wokeism, the kind of political correctness of totalitarian impulses of political correctness, and a resurgence, some of what the work we've done at Turning Point, but talking to the next generation about what kind of country do you actually want to live in?
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Do you want to be able to own a home, get married, and have kids? Or do you want to just stare at a screen all day long and be an indentured Russian serf and never own anything for the rest of your life? President Trump, to his great credit, ran an asymmetrical political operation that defied every single norm and custom of the political consultant elite over the last 30 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
He did podcasting instead of 60 minute interviews. He went and did TikTok videos instead of New York Times editorial sit-down meetings. He said, no one reads the New York Times, but people do watch TikTok videos. And in an amazing way, President Donald Trump performed the best that a Republican president has performed with younger voters in over 50 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
50 years, and this is a bottom-up resurgence where now, of every demographic, they say, do you approve or disapprove of Donald Trump? Baby boomers, no offense, they're not really crazy about what's happening in D.C. Do you know who is the most supportive of what's happening right now in Washington, D.C.? Voters under 30. It makes perfect sense, by the way.

Because they can't afford homes, and they're seeing themselves involve the most suicidal, depressed, anxious, and alcohol-addicted generation in history, and they want the same American dream that their parents and grandparents had.

We registered tens of thousands of voters here in Arizona where we had over 1,000 full-time people on the ground. We chased well over 200,000 ballots for President Donald Trump.

The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
But all of that has now led to the ultimate question, which of course we all see what President Trump has done in just the last couple of weeks. President Trump is doing so much, the Democrats can't remember why they're mad at him. Wait, I'm mad. Why? I don't know. He's getting rid of this thing and signing this thing. Full court offense. Shock and awe. It is time for us to overwhelm the left.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
You see, President Trump had a decision to make. He could do the kind of typical second-term thing and wait for his legislative priorities and sign a couple proclamations to rename some post offices. President Donald Trump is going after one of the most ambitious reclamations of a republic in the history of the species. We've never seen anything like it. Now, of course...

We know the executive order is saying there will be no more DEI in federal agencies, no more DEI in our military. We know that he's doing drill, baby, drill.

In the last couple of days of Joe Biden being president, 11,000 people were crossing a day into our country. Like yesterday, 142 people. That's too many. Stop plotting. It's too many. We want to go to zero. But yes, that's a 98% decrease, which, by the way, goes to show that open borders is a choice. You didn't need a Senate bipartisan bill. You didn't need some sort of committee.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Joe Biden wanted the borders to be open, and he wanted us to have this flow of people from another country. President Donald Trump made a decision, no, actually, nation is defined by its borders.

We know about Bobby Kennedy, who's now HHS secretary, Kash Patel, who's about to be FBI director, Tulsi Gabbard.

element of this entire thing and it comes down to three major questions big questions that are being debated in the media but they're not getting down to the meat of the matter the first of which is so simple and you can ask my daughter who's two and a half years old and she knows the answer to this question how many branches of government are there pretty simple we all know three yes thank you that's right good answer um and yes there's seven articles of the constitution yes we go through all that
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Yes, there's three branches of government. Oh, easy answer. Is it really that easy? Are there three branches of the government?

What Dr. Arnn has been saying for as long, longer than I have been alive and has been trying to get the American public to realize and recognize that there has been an invisible, unelected, unknown branch of government that has been operating unconstitutionally post Woodrow Wilson and no one has had the moral clarity to
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
the mandate or the gusto to even mention it, let alone challenge it, let alone deconstruct it. And we can call that the administrative state. We can call that the shadow government, the deep state. All of those are correct answers, by the way. But understand the profundity of President Donald Trump saying, okay, JFK started USAID by an executive order. I can end USAID by an executive order.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
You serve at the pleasure of the president. And then they say, well, no, you can't do that. Hold on. Which branch of the three does that fall under? It falls under Article 2. which goes into one of the other more fundamental questions. You see what's been grown like a cancer over the last hundred years is this fourth branch of government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
And you can see this in some of the reporting on the Department of Justice and the FBI in particular. Anytime you hear this, you should press pause and tell your friend, nope, nope. And you should cancel this out of your thought when they say, oh, that's an independent agency. No, it's not actually. There's no such thing as an independent agency. Answers to the pleasure of the president. Period.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
End of story. The FBI is not independent. Now, the president could be as provocative, he'd get impeached if he does this, but it would be perfectly constitutional if he asked the FBI director to look at every pending case the FBI is looking into. Perfectly constitutional. If he looked at everything the DOJ is doing, it's perfectly constitutional. The DOJ does not operate on a special island.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
I must have missed that in the Hillsdale online course, Federalist Papers course, where Alexander Hamilton was going on, talking about, well, the Attorney General is kind of its own president, and the FBI kind of does its own thing. And guess what? President Trump does not know this. He knows this philosophically, but he knows it personally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
Because that fourth branch of government destroyed his first term. was the reason he did not get reelected in 2020 and is the reason why he faced 700 years in federal prison. President Donald Trump is counterattacking the fourth branch of government that tried to stop him over the last decade. This is the fourth branch that waged war on the sovereign. And that is the key.
The Charlie Kirk Show
"If It's Not Us, It's Nobody" — My Speech at Hillsdale College
So the next, the big question, that's the big question. How many branches of government are there? That's fine. The next big question though is, well, who is the sovereign exactly? Who's in charge of this place? Do you notice that when we fire a federal worker, it's like we're going to fire the Archbishop of Phoenix or something? It's unbelievable. They're totally untouchable. You can't do that.

You got to wake up at 3 a.m. so that you can like do a little bit of exercise and put tape on your mouth. And the guy is built like Hercules. Yeah. I mean, he's built like unbelievably well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
There's something and I'm drawing from memory here. But if you take if you if you add up the coordinates of the pyramids, it has some sort of a some sort of a alignment with the actual circumference of the earth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
No, that's the point. That's the whole point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
We're not alleging. No, we're asking. We're in pursuit of to explain.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
What do you have to say about, for example, some of the Mayan temples and Aztec temples that we didn't have the technology to cut the rock the way that it was? I mean, we're talking about perfect cuts of a hundred foot stone. How would that even be done? Apparently they did have the technology. Tell me how.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
So if anyone wants to bet even odds that we won't have found, I just there's there is some there in ancient civilizations. Some of these structures defy some of our logic of what we knew existed at the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
So then we have to ask, how did they build them?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
The city thing I'm agnostic on. Yeah. How did they cut the stone to make the pyramid?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
And part of his like routine is just sitting and like journaling to himself and journaling about nothing. All right. This video has gone so viral. Let's cut 3.24. Toga Water gets me. I love Saucer, you are. It's relatable. Instead of Icy? I'll do it. You can't get it on any electronics.

Jack, what is going on with Snow Woke?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
It's just so avoidable. I mean, I don't want to be cruel or mean, but if you look at her, it's like, that's not Snow White. I mean, come on. I mean, what are we doing here, right? This is, it's so forced, and it's just such the arrogance of Disney. There should be a shareholder lawsuit over this. This is like a violation of fiduciary duty.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
So is this guy like a celebrity otherwise? Oh, yeah. No, he's like a professional influencer. Thank you. You've made your first 10,000. Congratulations. We got to do at least 20, bro. He's like a self-help coach. Oh, yeah. All right. I got to dunk my head in some cold water.

I want to play, let's just wrap this up by playing 337. And men, let me just give you a piece of advice. Do not date people like Rachel Zegler. Do not associate yourself. Anyone who talks like this, anyone that approaches with this kind of vibe or energy, this is eh, eh, eh, like get away, run away. This is complete red flag. I was going to say something more, but I'm not going to. Play cut 337.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
They paid $300 million to let the witch become Snow White. Gal Gadot is the witch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
I know, which is ridiculous.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
All right, we have to run, everybody. Keep committing thought crimes. I was going to say don't watch Snow White, but there's no risk of that. They're going to lose hundreds of millions of dollars on this.

No, it's disgusting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
Did he really do that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
So you put your hands in something that's about to go on your face?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
Yes, he did.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
He rubbed a banana on his face.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
It was the actual banana. Can we get an instant replay? We need someone to investigate this. This is going to be mean. No, it's definitely a banana.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
Is this really what he did? What is the health property of this? It's really funny.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
Like that stuff they put in coffee? Isn't this a collagen thing? Collagen is a peptide.

So Jack, do you want to chime in here? And do you have your Saratoga water, Jack?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
I get up as early as I have to. I am a big sleep person. I'm a believer that sleep is actually the hidden ingredient to memory and mental acuity. If I had to choose, I would much rather stay up late than get up early. I am much sharper later the night goes on than in the morning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
reset the machine and back at it yeah and jack you should actually take it as a blessing that you are a morning person i just i have to get up somewhat early for the show it's i can do it but i have to be in bed by like 9 30 10 p i i have to and by the way put up this on put 331 up on screen this is this picture is literally six or seven years old andrew says i age well and it's not because of banana peels
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
It's because I get a lot of sleep. I prioritize sleep. I always have. Also, no alcohol helps with aging. But so, Jack, if you had to choose, though, if you had your druthers, 6 a.m. wake up call or like 530 or be able to stay up to 1 a.m., which would you choose? Which where are you in a more flow state?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?
I am proud because I'm actually the one that finally sent a topic to Thought Crime that was a little bit like a pop culture thing you were finally you were finally hip and with it I was finally hip and with it and it's it's a great it is such an outrageous viral video it's there should be entire PhD classes taught on this what I love is how just the X version where it did not originate has more like 10 times more views than like the most viral Donald Trump post during the election like it originated on Instagram right I believe so

Had it been outside, I would have been two or three rows back from the people that were on the dais with Trump inside. I don't know if I understand what you're saying. And where the cabinet was... You would have been three rows behind him? I would have been like in that group. Oh, wow. If it would have been outside. And so... That's amazing. Your heads would have really exploded.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
But because it went inside, it was like, hey, I really want Erica there. It was kind of some like horse training. Yeah, yeah, sure. And I just like, I want to be in the room. I don't care if I have a terrible ticket. And... Well, apparently it wasn't terrible enough. No, no, I'm not saying it was terrible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I was super honored and it was just treated so well. And again, it was just kind of blown away because last inauguration, I was like looking up in the cheap seats. I was like, oh, hi, I see a little dot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So it is it is great to see you all. We are here live from D.C. So much to recap and go over. I really want to spend time to kind of go through inauguration weekend before we even get into some of the substance of all the executive orders and everything that we've gone through. What is the best way to start this conversation, Jack?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Look, I think you have to continue to flood the zone. And by the way, this is happening in multiple volleys. There's a reason why it's day one, day two, day three. You can't keep up with it. I mean, today was JFK files. Yesterday was affirmative action. The day before that was January 6th. I mean, those are three monumental things. Yeah, and the pro-lifers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So where do they even focus their media attention? Understand, the media is largely the life force and the signal for where a lot of these people end up fighting. Now, they're going to try to stop some of the stuff in the courts, but pardon power is absolute. They can't challenge that. So that's happening. January 6th is absolute. The affirmative action EO is just rescinding another EO.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So the DEI stuff is completely within the power and the authority of the current president. But also understand that so much of this, the next wave is Pete Hexeth. The next wave after that is going to be Pam Bondi. For example, wait until Kash Patel and Pam Bondi can go, we want a review of all cases over the last eight years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
We want to know what's pending, current investigations, people you're looking into, subpoenas, and they have to go look into all the active case files. I mean, that's going to be a whole nother wave.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Well, that's – yeah, exactly. And that's why we need Tulsi.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I know that there is some prompting here, but can I can I think the other one is Charlie Kirk. Oh, Seatgate, too, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I want to get Blake in here. Blake, I want you to walk through some of these executive orders. By the way, there are some delightful EOs that did not get any attention. That's what's great about it. For example, did you know that there was an EO signed on the first day putting people over fish? No, it's actually on the White House website.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Oh, Trump's obsessed with stopping radical environmentalism to provide water to Southern California. The title of the EO is putting people over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So, Blake, walk through some of your favorite EOs and the profundity of the affirmative action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Oh, that's funny. I know. I know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Whoa. Amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So everyone knows. Here's a trivia question Blake might know. Who in American history has had Will Scharf's job before? White House staff secretary. Kavanaugh. That's true. Well done. That is right. Ten points to Jack Posobiec. The White House staff secretary. Off the dome, baby. The White House staff secretary, on the surface, seems as if it's like a perfunctory job.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It says controls the paper flow to the president. That is the central nervous system of the entire federal government. They control all the paper. Well, so you think, OK, what is it like newspapers?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
No, anything, anything the president needs to review or sign from a national security briefing to an executive order to a memo from a foreign leader comes through the White House staff secretary office. And if there is a comma wrong, if there is an apostrophe wrong, if there is a number where it's like, well, is it executive order one one three eight or is it executive order one one three nine?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It could be the difference between, you know, pardoning somebody for something that you meant or didn't mean. So the White House staff secretary, Will Sharpe, is doing amazing. One of my personal favorites. First of all, I want to read some of the executive orders.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
We're going to do this on the show because I think we have to go through some of these because they haven't gotten the attention that they deserve. Yes. This one, restoring names that honor American greatness. So obviously, you know, there's the, you know, Golf of America, all that, which I love. But you go deeper.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It's that he's just taking over the entire naming commission to review every single name of like national parks and rivers to make sure that they reflect American greatness. I think it's amazing. We've got to bring back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I have a high degree of certainty he's going to allow Pete Hegseth to get a victory lap on that one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Yeah, you know, that one is good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Not just Charlie Kirk plus wife.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
How dare we? Let's let's show some of these pictures. So allowed to sit closer than some of them. So obviously, we know that the outdoor service ceremony was canceled. By the way, right decision. Would you agree, Andrew?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
The the amount of executive action. Let's just talk about this, Blake. Even for some of the skeptics, I'm sure, Blake, that, you know, and Blake is, you know, what is it? Good Trump, bad Trump. He could be contrarian. Is Black Bill Blake returning? No, he was dormant through the election. But now, like, there's some good stuff here. You got to be honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I just want to talk more broadly, though. Yes, of course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. Brand new year, brand new opportunities to change the world for the better. It's easier than you might think.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
And it's also just some of the little stuff, I mean, that might not make a big difference. You know, I was walking through the White House in the Eisenhower Executive Office building and just taking down – I saw people taking down all the signs that say, like, gender-neutral restrooms or taking down the mask signs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Now, there was one that I do have to make sure that the new Secret Service director addresses – There was a Secret Service guy that was processing me today at the White House, and he had not just a gay pride flag. He had like the trans inverted flag on his vest, Jack, on his Secret Service vest. Yeah, and that's political. At the White House. And by the way, that's political.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So do you want to hear something? This might sound a little bit prideful, but I think you guys will cut me slack for not prideful, but... Typically, when I am around police officers, muscular class National Guard, I get recognized and there's like some like at least some favor. I'd say one, at least half. Right. I know what you mean. Yeah. No, you can see where I'm going here, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So I go into the White House Secret Service and I get like stone cold response. Yep. Not like not one, like five, 10, 15, 20. When I do a Secret Service event, like they're always coming up to me. They're always like what I'm going at. What I'm going is that Biden and Kamala, they staffed the White House with like loyalist like regime. Now, there are some people came up the cafeteria.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
OK, you're great. Well, you know, as I was visiting. But it was really interesting. It was very illuminating. It was a big plot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Because I was expecting like, oh, you know, welcome back. No, the guy, he's checking me in. He's got the trans flag. Like, trans flag. It's not just the gay flag. It's the gay one with the triangle.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Well, no, I'm just saying that if you even walked outside in the cold, the wind, it was – people would have died. People do not appreciate how bone-chillingly cold it is in D.C.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Oh, no, I could totally tell the vibe was off. It was, like, not even eye contact. But then again, some of the Secret Service guys that might have slipped through the cracks were like, we love you, fist bump, you know. Interestingly, the Hispanic and the black guys were the ones that were the most pro-MAGA.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Most pro-MAGA, and it was the...
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
That is tpusa.com. Buckle up everybody. Here we go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Yeah, and so look, and Trump's going to clean all this up and his team's cleaning it all up. It's just illuminating to see what the prior regime has done up until this moment, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It's like little things like that, but this is a little more important when it's people that are tasked with... I mean, it's important, but, you know, it's like a little pen, like, okay, it's not like world-changing stuff, but it is emblematic of likely, you know, a larger issue that needs to be addressed. So I'm just looking through the executive action and orders here.
The Charlie Kirk Show

You got to give credit for Trump's boldness. And, I mean, I just, I laugh because he does this every day, right? It's going to be an SNL routine at some point in a good way. Oh, for sure. You know, Will Sharp comes up, sir, we have an executive order. To colonize Mars. Exactly. Colonize Mars. Oh, that's a big one.

Now, for me, a Chicagoan – I was like, okay, just wear more clothing. But you don't understand. There's people from all across the country that are coming in that will drive in from Georgia and South Carolina that are not used to this. Some old person would have died. Donald Trump saved lives before he was even in office. So it got moved into the Capitol Rotunda.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Sir, we have an executive order to claim Greenland as part of America.

It was actually my first time ever in the Rotunda, believe it or not. I've done the Capitol thing. Wait, what? Yeah, I've never been in the Rotunda. Really?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Yeah, I've been in the Capitol. I was in the area where the State of the Union is administered, the House chamber. Right. I've been in the Senate chamber, but never the Rotunda. But that's like you walk in.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It's extremely tight. And so there was kind of the war over ticketing. So let's kind of show the picture of the Rotunda from the interior. So as things got announced... There was a nonstop fight from donors, influencers, elected officials of who actually gets in the rotunda.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Let's do one of our reads, and then if there's nothing else, we'll end with the CCP. I'm interested in hearing about the CCP. I want to play that meme with Tom Homan, but yeah. All right.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Now, this is very complicated because the presidential inaugural committee, otherwise known as J-SIC, does not control all the tickets. It is a joint committee between the Senate, the House, and the incoming administration. So as soon as you decide to go in the rotunda, you are 100% in Article 1 land, within the House and the Senate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Okay, meantime, and then CCP.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Okay, let's end with CCP. Let's do it. Okay, so the inauguration day begins with a service at St. John's Episcopal Church, which was the VVIP ticket. Very difficult to get to. In fact, in order to get in the rotunda as a guest, you had to start in... the St. John's Church. So only those that were in St. John's Church actually ended up getting tickets into the Rotunda. Joe Rogan was there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So therefore, if you look at the picture, before you even get to some of Trump's friends outside of the dais, and I'll get to the dais in a second, it's all senators. So the senators hogged all of the tickets up front. You're in controlled territory there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Everyone was there. So we had a lot of time to burn. The president was a little bit late. Church that Antifa tried to burn down? Correct. Right outside of the White House. And so kind of going around, and next thing you know, I run into the vice president of China. As you do. Yeah, just normal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Rather remarkable. So I was like, I got to get a picture, right? So I go up. That's my picture with the vice president of China. Wait, has he tweeted this? No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Not yet. This is exclusive thought crime stuff here. There we go. He saved it. I wanted to tweet it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Yeah, so I should probably post mine, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So I don't know what this guy's name is. He was really nice. And so as soon as I get a picture of them, some guy with a camera, it's kind of one of those, it's like a stick with a camera. Do you know what I'm talking about? Like a little stick as if you're looking like a selfie stick. Yeah. But it's like some sort of a technology I haven't seen. Okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It's like a stick, but it has like a mobile camera that kind of goes like this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Yeah. Like a GoPro. So he goes up. He's like, what's your name? What's your name? I said, my name is Jack. It's Hanjong. And so, ah, great. So my name is Charlie Kirk. And then, you know, I said, whatever. So then we go sit down. And if you've ever been to St. John's Episcopal church, it's very tight, very close quarters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
And I'm not saying anything private because everyone saw what was happening here. And so up on the, there's like this upper ring where you look down on the service and There's the – one of the CCP handlers is, like, filming the whole crowd.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
He's filming everybody during the service. So they can use facial recognition later.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
But no, so he's filming it. So here's the Secret Service who's, like, you can't bring water into the church. Right. And there's a Chinese Communist Party agent government officials, like –
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
filming everybody and so all of a sudden some of the white house staff is like they're trying to point up here he's like going down there he they are so brazen charlie you know what else about espionage the three-axis stabilization camera where it kind of like yeah exactly so you know what else wouldn't listen to our conversations you know what else wouldn't surprise me is if they had uh some type of um signal collector on them as well
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So to just put this in perspective, there were about 680 seats in the rotunda. about 400 of them were for Congress. So there was only 230 tickets allocated for Trump and his team, family, and even some select donors. So a huge war over actually who gets ticketing. There was an overflow room where people like Theo Vaughn were, and Logan Paul, and Megyn Kelly, and all the governors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I think it's because they're dragnetting my phone. I'm telling you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
well my you and i i'm not joking by the way that's like that's like not even that's like not even like that's like low level spy games so anyway what i got found so amazing is that no one's told this guy to stop until like 20 minutes in and he's using a little gimbal scanning the whole audience like he's over the balcony imagine like you're sitting down here i'm over the balcony and by the way
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
This is not like a schlepping audience. You had Scott Besson. You had Mark Zuckerberg. You're the CEO of TikTok. You had Jeff Bezos. You had Sam Altman.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So they're all in church. And he is scanning every single one of them from the balcony doing signal collecting. God knows what.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
And then somebody at the pre-ceremony for the presidential inauguration, hours before Trump runs the government, is brazenly spying on every incoming cabinet member. And then finally, about 10 minutes in, someone goes up to him and taps him on the shoulder and says, stop it, knock it off. everyone in the white house staff to their credit was like, what's going on up there?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Like people were pointing and they don't care. They just like this scanning conversations, the whole thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Does do you believe all this that I'm saying, Jack? This is very believable to you, right? I would be surprised if they weren't, to be honest. What what amazed me and it was such a microcosm of the failure of Biden because that was Biden's government. Trump had no power at that time. It's just like the indifference that no one who is currently on government was like.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
yeah they're just meanwhile charlie kirk's going like hey hey not only that like by the way sergio is turning around he's like what the hell's going on here yeah everyone's like this and that and like pointing like at least 10 people are noticing that the chinese delegation is using some sort of chinese listening device scanning it wasn't just like he was like over the balcony like this yeah it wasn't being subtle no there was no subtlety yeah so that's my ccp story and i met the jd vance of china
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
J.D. Vance of China.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
By the way, how did I do in my picture? I think I passed the line test, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
All the governors were in the overflow room, right? So super honored, and thank you to Susie, and thank you to everyone who worked so hard on this for approving not just myself, but also Erica. Big, big lift. And that's a big deal, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It's like a province or city, right?

I was so touched to be able to just be included. In fact, there was no difference between how you entered. I entered alongside of Katonji Brown-Jackson, Brett Kavanaugh, Clarence Thomas, the whole Supreme Court walked in as I walked in. Literally, we were just kind of walking in together. There was no guard. It was just all kind of one line as you enter from outside into the Capitol.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
By the way, I need to tell my CCP story. It's an exclusive story I haven't told, which actually plays into this morning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
I have told Mike Waltz about this. It's a very serious issue. Okay. So I'll get to the CCP story later in the program because it's worth it. But anyway, honored to have been included. And so I started to get text messages while I'm sitting in there that this woman tweeted saying that some anonymous Republican lawmaker was mad that I had better tickets than them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Now, mind you, Eric Swalwell was literally right behind me. Now, I think I deserve great praise because I went through high road – virality, high road virality. I said, here we are at a presidential inauguration. And I wanted so badly when it was over to take out my phone and say, hey, Congressman Swalwell, are you accepting the pardon? Are you accepting the pardon?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Because he was on the J6 committee. I decided not to do it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It wasn't a day for that. It wasn't a day for that. Let's put 155 up on screen. Here were these lunatics, Brad Schneider. I don't know these other people. Eric Swalwell. That was when Donald Trump said, and God saved my life and all the Democrats were sitting. It turned into a mini State of the Union vibe where like half the room would stand and applaud and half the room would kind of sit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
But it was because of the rotunda, the noise echoes and actually had a really good energy to it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
By the way, after it, about five minutes after, Swallow would stand up for almost every applause line. I think some staffer texted him. Like, Charlie Kirk is roasting you. Stand up. And it was... It was hilarious to kind of see as it was happening. I loved watching and looking at Obama and Hillary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
And mind you, we knew that Joe Biden just pardoned his family, but Trump did not.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
It was something – I mean, it's hard to kind of put in words. They just look different but similar in person, I guess, is the way you could say. And, I mean, Hillary just is such a disgusting person. And then seeing – I've met George W. Bush before, but just you have to look at it. That ensemble of people will never happen again. It'll never happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
That particular ensemble of people will never be recreated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
And so all that to say, I got attacked for having good seats, but it wasn't just me. It was also Erica, and they were really sweet to include her because all the other congressional spouses, this is what made them really mad, all the congressional spouses were in the overflow room.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
So the congressional spouses were in the overflow room, and Erica got in, and she deserves it because we were all part of this kind of historic and triumphant moment. And it was just larger than life, breathtaking, and... Yeah, that seat gate. And then Jim Banks, Senator Jim Banks, walk through that as well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Actually, I just saw Senator Jim Banks like five minutes before this program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Organically. I didn't ask him to do that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Is that not the greatest looking thing you've ever seen?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 70 — Seatgate? Best Executive Orders? Panda Express?
Now, if you think they were mad, just to be clear, if the original dais would have stood— The tickets would have been even better, meaning that because of all the capital mix up in the House and the Senate.

What have I ever said that's racist? Can you name one thing?

Does that mean anything? Can you name a second thing I've ever said that's racist?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
When have I ever said anything that's hateful?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
He can't say anything I've ever said that's racist, because I've never said anything that's racist. That is the American left in one picture, everybody. Lots of rage and no wisdom.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
I would imagine that. I think that man buns are very gay. I agree. With the stock market at record highs, are you confident your portfolio can weather the next big downturn?

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
Yeah, of course. I mean, a little bit. It's mostly got to be bottom-up. But, yeah, I think that the president can be a cheerleader, for sure. I think that it's got to be the citizen leaning in and engaging on what matters most and most fundamentally. And, look, I think that it's not inconsequential, the hockey game and the sports events that we're seeing there. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
But yeah, I think you can revive national patriotism. I don't think it could be forced, but I think it can be presented. I think people can lead a strong example. I really do. So follow a strong example, I should say.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
There's like no opposition whatsoever. We might've had five or six questions of people that were in some form of opposition. I'm just looking at the footage here from University of South Florida. And I mean, there's a legitimate, permanent Gen Z shift happening. Everything you see in the polling, we saw reflected on the ground. The base is as strong as ever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
It's broadening, it's widening, it's strengthening, it's deepening. And there's just no, rebellion energy at all on the left it just doesn't exist and so really fun the footage will be posted soon i'm sure the team is going to have a field day kind of cutting all that all together and uh yeah it's good stuff there it is
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 74 — Canada v. USA? Man Bun Feminism? Garden of American Heroes?
Not really. No, I'm trying to think what I was into when I was at those ages. I got into the earliest... Even Stevens I liked. Oh, no, no, no, no. I mean, I was into Arthur, and that sounds lame, but that was like what I was allowed to watch. It was on PBS. Arthur's still on the air. Did you know that? I remember Arthur.

Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
Yep. I have the list.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
Yeah, so everyone's on the list. Look, I'm not going to tell anything private conversations, but Steve will reiterate, there is a force of energy to get pardons for Jay Six, President of the Senate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
Day one. I'm not speaking on behalf of the president. It will end up being the president's decision to sign on the dotted line. What I can say is that people closest to him brought up daily. It is brought up daily. Right, Steve? This is not just some sort of forgotten thing. It is a top priority. And so the president has made some promises on that. It is his decision. We've got to work it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
And we've just got to keep working it, keep pushing it. But the good news is that this is not like a forgotten thing where people just say one thing and not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
We're talking about pretrial detention for a year and a half, two years for some of these people, right? It's just unbelievable. Oh, yes. Okay. Daisy, who do we got?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
Yeah, the most high-profile preemptive pardon, of course, was Gerald Ford pardoning Nixon. And what it does is that a prosecution will not have the gusto to go through the process of writing indictment and going to trial if there's even a slight chance that the conviction will not be held up in court. Steve, is that a fair summary? Yes. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
So, look, I anyone that has been preemptively pardoned, they have the right to do that. But I just I I laugh and I scoff. These are the people that were constantly telling us that we're the criminals and they're even they are legitimately probing preemptive pardons.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
We have time for a couple more, maybe one or two, and then I got to get Steve prepped for on stage. I don't want to just throw him up on stage. So that wouldn't be fair for the great Steve Bannon. I got to get lower key. No, I know. I need another Red Bull. One more Red Bull. All right. Daisy, who's in charge? We have somebody for question. Yeah. Great.

Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
I will say that the underappreciated through line of what Ross Perot pinpointed in the early 90s, direct connected to Trump. Ross Perot was Trump before Trump. He just wasn't Trump in the sense where he said the same stuff, that sucking noise you hear is Mexico taking our jobs from us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
He was a populist nationalist that, remember, he was poised to win the presidency, and then all of a sudden he stopped his campaign and suspended it because there was someone following him in his front yard. Do you remember this whole story? I remember it. It was really goofy, and then he reentered the race, and by the time he did, all of his support went down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
But Ross Perot was very clairvoyant and saw ahead, saw the harbinger, the canary in the coal mine of the deindustrialization of the American body politic. Anyone here vote for Ross Perot? Look at that. I do this at every event, and it's like 20% in both 92, in 92, not 96. 90%. Both? You were both? 92 and 96? 96, he didn't have the same sort of spark.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
But, again, I think that— He got 23 percent of the vote, I think. Yeah, no, that's right.

The best performing swing state of any swing state, despite being outspent three to one. It was a five and a half point win. No state comes even close. In fact, it was the best performance Trump ever had in this state. Whereas you can't say that for North Carolina, Georgia. He actually underperformed his previous totals from 16.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
So, Steve, we're in a very interesting moment right now. You have been kind of, some would say in the media, the architect of the populist nationalist movement. Walk us through kind of the last year and what stage are we in in this populist nationalist chapter in American history?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
So, Steve, what is it—I mean, you were so—in the 2021-2022 cycle, we were just getting started on Rav. We were still getting to know each other, and we've gotten to know each other really well the last couple years. But you were so early on, we're all in for Trump, and we were too, but you were forcefully early that this thing is going to be a decisive 2020 for victory.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
You saw it years ahead of time. It was—the clairvoyance was remarkable. I mean, your skeptics would say it's just luck. You know, Steve just kind of rolled snake eyes, but it's not. Like, you saw—what did you see—
The Charlie Kirk Show
Steve Bannon Holds Nothing Back — Exclusive Interview at AmFest2024
But how do you see that? I mean, that was so contrarian. It was so unorthodox. Was it? instinct, gut?

everyone go back and you know shuffle papers or something because we played a win at turning point we don't just sit around on our hands go talk to our team if you're serious about it okay very special guest here so I, as you guys know, traveled the country and went to college campuses and brought the good word to them. Mitchell Brown is here from Signal Polling. Mitchell, welcome to the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Chase the Vote Effort That Created the 2024 Triumph
You know, I'm going to recreate part of it here as we do this. Who wants a hat? See? We're going to see here. There you go. Over there. We did that on campuses across the country. Mitchell, you did the study. Did we make an impact visiting all these college campuses?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Chase the Vote Effort That Created the 2024 Triumph
And that is a tough campus. That is not always MAGA-friendly. And so, who wants a hat, by the way? Let's see here. There we go. So, by the way, this is what it was like on these campuses. I'm telling you. And, Mitchell, in polling, can you go through how dramatic a change like this is? Seeing double-digit movement. There is a cause and effect to this. It does not happen by itself.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Chase the Vote Effort That Created the 2024 Triumph
So what you're saying is you had a control group. Correct. And then you had the turning point group. Therefore, it would say that not every campus automatically had this sort of shift. So the control group proves that we actually helped move the youth vote towards the victory for Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Chase the Vote Effort That Created the 2024 Triumph
And that shows the type of work that we do. So the control group is the most interesting of what you say, because it shows that it wasn't just an automatic lurch to the right, that it was the actual work that we were doing. Quickly, before we have to get to our next guest, tell us some of the other poll, the remarkable polling you saw this cycle as I throw out another hat here.
The Charlie Kirk Show

High school. Where again? Sorry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Chase the Vote Effort That Created the 2024 Triumph
North Carolina. Look, the biggest thing is activity, activity, activity, finding more friends, finding more people, and then finding specific things you can do. It might be taking back your school board. It might be hosting a lot of events that people like, but constantly using social media as well to try to connect with like-minded friends.

And Eric, you are the premier scholar on Bonhoeffer. You know, I give you a hard time because Eric deserves it. But that's actually the highest form of friendship when you could joke. I agree. Eric is the best. He's 10 out of 10. I've known Eric for a long time. But Eric understands if the church goes silent, what happens, Eric? Well...

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Okay. I think it's because of a technical thing. It was a little hard to understand what you were saying. So you were talking about the Speaker of the House, right, in the Texas race. Is that correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Great. So can you actually refresh the audience? We did a whole segment on this and we weren't covering it closely. Can you please tell us how that all ended up?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
So so let's just thank you for that. So Dan Patrick also commented. He said this may be the first time in our nation's history where the minority party openly elected the speaker of a legislative body instead of the majority party. Look, the GOP is getting better. Abbott is politically savvy overall. And Abbott has said that he'll veto and deprioritize any Democrat bills.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
But we have to change this. I'll tell you what. The idea that the minority party is able to elect a speaker, even if the Republican is not fully MAGA at heart, they know which way the party is going. And this is something for you in Texas.
The Charlie Kirk Show

or make sure the data is walled off, make sure the Chinese Communist Party aspect, that all kind of gets figured out and ironed out. All I know is this. I hope TikTok continues to operate in the United States. I trust the president figured this out. We got over 2 billion views on the platform in the last year. Ryan was completely right. Ryan did a great job running it on our team.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
So I have three that I would like to share. The first of which is there is no replacement for knowing your stuff. Doing research, reading dozens, if not over 100 books a year, listening to audio books, listening to podcasts, reading books. Taking online courses at Hillsdale College, charlieforhillsdale.com. There is no replacement for knowing your stuff. That is number one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Number two is ask questions. Don't tell the audience what you think, but start to ask provocative questions that can get the other side to defend their position, but also can have them see things from your perspective. When it comes from immigration, for example, you could say, is there any limit to the amount of people that you would like to have come into the United States?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Is there any cap that you'd like to have? That is far more effective than saying there should be a firm limit on X, Y, Z people coming. Of course, we believe that, but it's very important. Finally, it's very it's critical. to make sure that your heart rate does not get higher than the person you are debating or that you are talking to.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
If you get more upset, if you get more fired up with the person that you are debating, you are more likely to get a little in a frenzy and not be able to win the debate. Hope that's helpful. Thanks for being a member. Really appreciate it. Jeannie wrote in. She says, what about those of us who are traveling to the inauguration? Should we come to D.C. now that it has moved inside?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
That's a good question. Look, it depends. I mean, there will probably still be people on the National Mall that want to watch it on big screens. My personal advice is, look, there's going to be many MAGA fans. It'll be a big party atmosphere, but it's up to you. It's going to be cold. It's going to be frigid. It's going to be difficult to navigate in some ways.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
But if you guys want to do that, it's still going to be a huge party atmosphere. And if I run into you, I'd love to see you. But just take as a cautionary note that it's not going to be for the faint of heart. But a lot of these people that are emailing, I say, Charlie, I live in Minnesota. This is nothing. Or I live in North Dakota. What are you talking about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
So if that's nothing for you, there's still going to be plenty of festivities and activities for people to enjoy in Washington, D.C. Okay, Mary, thank you for being a member. Mary, what's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
I think so. I think younger and younger people are starting to come to Christ, which is the most important thing that we can do is to bring people to Christ and to make Christ known. I know that young people are waking up big time, and I see this on college campuses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And I think competition is good for social media. I think it makes meta better. I think it makes X better. I think it makes YouTube better. So I trust President Trump to figure this out. I would hate to see any interruption of service to see this go down. But I will say, I say this as a creator, someone who loves the platform and sees what it's capable of.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And by the way, we've been able to reach hundreds of millions of people with the message of God and Jesus, the scriptures, redemption through TikTok. It's just true. I mean, our top performing video on TikTok up until about a week before the election was me talking about the resurrection and me talking about Jesus. So that's something to think about. Very interesting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Also, Instagram as well has been really good for us. So, yes, I think that young people are waking up big time, both politically and spiritually. They want to get away from kind of this. old, gentrified way of viewing government and policy and culture. And they want a bright future and a new American renaissance. And God willing, I think we're getting that starting on Monday. Thank you.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
It's a great question. I mean, look, first and foremost, you have to take over those boards of supervisors and kind of the board of directors. And we saw this with the St. Mary's Turning Point USA chapter, and we've had huge issues on our end. I'm curious, can you tell the audience more about what happened when you decided to stand up? Did it make you tougher?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Did it make you stronger throughout that entire process?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
If the president is able to broker a deal and keep TikTok operating, he could win anything. support of the younger generation in perpetuity. And the Democrats just handed this to him. The Democrats worked hard and Joe Biden signed the bill to kill TikTok. And now President Trump has an opportunity to save it while also addressing all of the privacy concerns that people might have.

Oh, what are you on the water reclamation board? Pretty important. We used to make fun of the water municipal review board. Pretty darn important. Right, Adriana? That is a pretty important job.

No, we did not. So Erica was a Trumper before I was, and she's far more conservative than I am. If you think I'm conservative, you've got to meet Erica. She went to the very first Trump rally. We did not meet there, but we met a little bit later, about a year and a half later. And, yeah, look, she she she was at that first Trump rally organized by Tyler Boyer in Maricopa County.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And that was President Trump's first rally. So we host the President Trump again at America Fest for his only transition rally, basically. Is that right, Jack?

And I told President Trump after I said, you know, this is your first ever MAGA rally. And he was very, very touched by that. And Tyler told the entire story in our live stream.

Members.CharlieKirk.com. What's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Yeah, I don't know as much about that. And by the way, yeah, yeah. And so I hear that from a lot of people. I'm agnostic on that. Ryan on our team who actually deals with the app says that's all not true. Other people I trust say it is true. I will say, though, but if it is there, President Trump now has an opportunity to fix it, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And that's what's really cool is that the president can, from what I understand, sign an extension, bring TikTok into the room, cut a deal and address all the data concerns, get it all out of the table. What are you doing? Are you doing keystrokes? Are you doing monitoring?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And by the way, while we're at it, if we make TikTok live up to that data standard, shouldn't we also bring in the other social media companies and also make them do that? Let's just to be clear, we are asking TikTok to operate at a higher level that we don't at other American companies. And what we're doing actually is we're driving American youth to the Chinese TikTok competitor Red Note.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
So, look, I'm far from an expert on this. All I know is as a creator, I see the views. People are coming up to me that never would have been supportive of President Trump saying I supported Trump all because of TikTok is what you did there. And so. We need to we need to kind of figure this out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And I think that I trust President Donald Trump 100 percent to be able to bring all the parties together, broker a deal, address all the privacy concerns, figure out the Chinese Communist Party element, because this app is likely here to stay in one way or another. It's been a great tool for us at Turning Point to get our message out. And I will say this. There's three things that are true.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
President Trump will become president again on Monday. He would not have become president if it wasn't for the youth vote. The numbers are conclusive. If younger voters did not move the way they did, he would not have won. And number three, younger voters likely would not have moved the way they did if it was not for our ability to go viral on TikTok. This is the CEO's video, PlayCut 112.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
It is Sho's video, Sho Z. Cho, who is thanking President Trump for finding a way to save TikTok. President Trump is going to Americanize TikTok. He has an opportunity to do that. Let's PlayCut 112.

Yeah, and an important element, Ryan, reminds me of this. All the TikTok data, guys, is actually stored by an American company called Oracle. All of it is stored by Oracle and not by the Chinese Communist Party. So it's a deal to figure out. I understand all the concerns.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
We don't want China and the Chinese Communist Party, which is our greatest enemy, to be able to access our kids and be able to blackmail them and all that. But I saw the power of this platform the last year, and I think the president has a unique opportunity to strike a deal. We'll see what he ends up doing. OK, let's go to Stephen.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
So that's a really smart question. So I recently spent a good amount of time with a lawyer I really respect. We talked about him on the thought crime. He represented me during all the January 6th nonsense. And I asked him a question. I said, how is AI changing the legal world? And he said, oh, it's going to be one of the greatest applications of AI. I said, why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
He said, soon people without money will be able to get the best possible legal briefing for almost no cost. So here's how this would work. There's this thing now called it's a Thompson Reuters company. It's not called Copilot. It's called Co-Counsel. You are able to upload thousands of documents.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
So if you have someone who is wrongly incarcerated, all of the documents regarding your potential loved ones, we're not there yet, but we're getting there. All the documents, all the inconsistencies, all the depositions, everything. And within seconds, co-counsel will make a incredibly compelling argument that would otherwise cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars at big law.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
to be able to advocate for your loved one to be released or wrongly incarcerated or whatever. The point being is we're not there yet, but within five to 10 years, there will be a situation where almost every American will have access to a very high quality legal representation. And that is an awesome promise.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
You hire some legal assistant to read the brief and go over the depositions and find inconsistencies. That is all going to change. You bundle all of that within an artificial intelligence program, it's going to bring down the cost of litigation by 99%. Now, there still will be a need for somebody to argue in front of a judge, someone to check the work of AI.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
But in the ideal and where we are headed is that if somebody is wrongly accused of a crime, for example, if a kid is wrongly accused of raping a girl when he's 19 years old and he has no money to be able to defend himself. Potentially having co-counsel AI be able to shepherd him through the process means that our inalienable rights can be better protected.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
There's a lot of dangerous stuff with AI that I don't like. This is one of the most exciting applications that I see. Why? Because it will allow the truth to win and eventually we'll get to a place where it is easier to defend and advocate for the truth. Truth and justice are the immune system of a society. If truth and justice are suppressed, a society gets sick.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
That is why these last four years we have been sick and the woke cancer and the tumor have enveloped the entire country. Truth and justice, when they are active, is the immune antibody response against any virus or a societal bacterial infection that tries to fester. And we are right now excommunicating that tumor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
And starting on Monday, we bring back truth and justice as penultimate American virtues and values. We are going to see a restoration of our founding promise that all human beings are created equal. So there are some things that AI that I'm very excited about. Some things I'm neutral about. Some things I'm horrified.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
President Trump has been signaling for quite some time the law allows for a presidential workaround for the president to basically bring the suspected companies into the table and potentially broker a deal with the federal government. And the president has been signaling for some time that he wants to find a way to save TikTok.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Well, first of all, the Greenlandic prime minister is already wanting to meet with America. Native Greenlanders want to secede and leave their Danish masters because they are not treated well by Denmark. It can happen in many different ways. The first of which is just the good old fashioned purchase.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
It can also happen with doing a deal with the current Greenlandic government and turn them into kind of how we have Guam, the northern Mariana Islands. Puerto Rico is its own kind of distinct status.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
But we have a lot of these kind of agreements all throughout the Pacific of American territories where you have full constitutional American rights, even regardless of them being a far off distant land. And so Greenland definitely could fall under that category and fall into that kind of subset. But why is this a good deal? It would increase our national security. They have nickel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
They have aluminum. They have oil, natural gas. They have gold. They have silver. They have rubies. They have abundant natural resources, not to mention how close it is to the North Arctic Sea. It is a no-brainer. Greenland, accessing Greenland and adding it to the United States of America would be a phenomenal benefit for our entire nation across the board.

Well, so let's just kind of play out with all the kind of one-liners I hear on campus. Well, Charlie, it doesn't impact you. They say it causes suffering. What if the person's already dead? What if you go to a morgue and you strike a deal? And you're like, I'm just going to take, you know, a leg a week. Just could be deceased. You know, why under the leftist worldview is that wrong?
The Charlie Kirk Show

No, I mean, that's not sorry. Of course, we as conservatives think the body is sacred and it's disgusting and wrong and repulsive and evil to consume a fellow human being. Otherwise, besides all the other legal, I'm saying from morally, what is the left wing objection to cannibalism?

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Of the cannibal community, what percentage are trannies? It's got to be higher. No, Hannibal had some weird sexual stuff, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Are we talking about Silence of the Lambs?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
The Buffalo Bill had the weird sexual stuff. Oh, they did dress up, yeah. No, no, I think that there's almost a one-to-one here. Now, I'm not saying all trannies are cannibals. I'm asking the question, are all cannibals trannies?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
We don't have a lot to go off of. The cannibal community is not yet. We're going to have cannibal rights. I am curious that at the DNC 2028. When they when they nominate just like AI, I think that's what they're going to do, by the way. I think it's AI 2020. I think they're going to nominate an algorithm. I'm not kidding.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I wouldn't. What I am saying though, is that if they even entertained Pete Buttigieg, they would totally vote for an algorithm.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
The fact that he's even entertained as a serious contender is like, that's like Sam, like Sam Altman created him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I think like Sam Altman's first project was Pete Buttigieg. Then he did open AI. Yeah. Anyway.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yes, evidently. So I guess at the Democrat 2028, when they say, you know, open AI 2028, will we have a cannibal rights section on the floor?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
But who are we to judge their dietary habits?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
By the way, it would help with the depopulation, the population problem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
It's kind of like recycling. It's like recycling. Well, yeah. But if your whole goal is about saving the environment, to Blake's point, look at all that protein and nutrients that otherwise could be going to nourish.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
If we want to no longer have carbon emissions because of farting cows or because of all the industrial farming— There's millions of people that die in America every single year. That could feed starving children.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
All kidding aside, we'll get to the next segment. In the Christian tradition, we believe the body is sacred. And that's why we believe Christ actually took human flesh. We believe we're actually going to be resurrected again one day. That the human body should not be trivialized. That there's something special about it. That you were made in the image of God, not in the image of a big whopper.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
that's right but as we become less Christian I'm telling you cannibalism very well might pop up again we could all joke about it the sarcasm actually is laced in I want a liberal to come on and tell me by the liberal standard what is the argument against cannibalism we might need to have our first liberal on thought crime just to probe this question we should find that we can't say more about it but we should find that guy who was at University of Tennessee today
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Oh, no, you can't spoil it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
That one, that was off. That was, boy, everyone should subscribe to all of our appropriate channels. Jack, you are going to love this one. This one has the opportunity. I don't want to be too, has the opportunity to be one of those viral things I've ever done. That's all I'm going to say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Okay. We'll need to do that, Charlie. Hey, Blake, based on what you heard, it's pretty juicy, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Next segment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Do people do that, by the way?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I've never done. How is that like different than like age? I mean, whatever the thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
What was that game I used to play? Age of Empires? No. No. I'll think of it. Keep talking.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Would you go to VR prison? So let me, what is actually on their VR?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I've used these virtual reality thing. I don't think they're that good. Yeah. I mean, have you seen the tech is not there yet?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
But but the the goggle thing bothers me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Somebody once told me recently, they said, my relative, my uncle, whatever, works all day, gets home, and just puts on his goggles and spends four hours with them. I think that's deeply unhealthy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I think that's exactly right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I guess the question is what is the purpose of prison? Is it to punish or to distract?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yeah, I mean, so if it's all about protection, prison is such a joke now. These prisoners get video games like all day long. The private student loan debt market totals over $300 billion. YREFI, by the way, phenomenal supporters of our campus tour. They just do a great job. About $45 billion of private student loan debt is labeled as distressed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. YRefi does not care what your credit score is. Many clients aren't even able to make the minimum monthly payment on their private student loans when they first contact YRefi. Go to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com. Call 888-YRefi34. Log on to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
May not be available in all states because of private student loan debt. So many Americans feel stuck and helpless. They can help you guys get out of debt. They are not a debt settlement company. Instead, they are far more sophisticated than that. So they provide you with a custom loan payment. If you have privacy to loan debt, if your brother, your sister, your friend, your aunt, your uncle, your
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
heard them talk about it recently. You're like, oh, I just can't get out of this. I took out this loan. I'm not sure I wanted to. I know a lot of people with privacy to loan debt. I'm sending all of them to YRefi. Phenomenal patriots. 10 out of 10. They love America. Go to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com. But Bannon said his experience wasn't that good, Jack.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I don't think he had video games in sports. So I don't know. Every prison is different, right, Jack?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So, Blake, are you in favor of VR headsets for problem children?

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Is it immoral to basically in the in the water supply to put estrogenic material in a men's prison?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
feels like it probably would be yet i mean it would make them less violent it would make them more compliant it would make them like less likely to kill each other i'm more old-fashioned i feel like if someone has done a crime where you think that's worth doing to them you should just snip snip so let's put the estrogen example aside should we if a prisoner wants muscle relaxers on a daily basis should we give them that for the purposes of i mean how is it different than a vr headset
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
That's what I'm saying. I mean, if the goal is just to protect the public and they're not learning helpful skills, just give them a bunch of Valiums and muscle relaxers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Well, yeah, and so then all of a sudden it's like, yeah, prison's not that bad.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
We should bring asylums back. This whole anti-asylum movement has been a disaster. Hotel California, reopen it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I think what we should do. is we should go test out the new VR stuff. I think that's what we should do. I think a thought crime episode, we should do that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I'm going to get us some good stuff. I'm going to get all the meta stuff for us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I just, I mean, I don't, I, I'm not a believer that VR is, I mean, I'm looking at the meta website right now and the technology looks pretty impressive. At the same time, I look at the, I mean, look at this. This looks like indecipherable than like a 2006 video game.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Now kids have their Nintendo Switches. Can we put this up on screen? Can we put this screenshot I just had? First of all, this has got all the DEI stuff all over it, but whatever. So let's put this up. It's called the Super Rumble.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Those are just like people who aren't white. Come on. It's on the front page of the website.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Whatever. You and I both know what's going on. So it's called Super Rumble or Super Crumble or Super Dumble. It's probably Super Rumble.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I'm not a believer yet in the technology, so we'll see what happens. All right, next topic. All right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
There was Daylight Savings, but there was another one before it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
We wanted to revisit that. No, this is an important one. First of all, I have to really plead ignorance. Do people watch this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I don't know about goggles. Why would they not watch it with VR on?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
By the way, imagine the market. They should hire me. They should not. It should not be called love is blind. It should be called love is VR. And they would sell like five million of these things. Okay, so this was, just to remind people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
She says, I watched every season except this one, and I repent of my sins. I've never even heard of this show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Is this on Netflix?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So it's like a death match. Look at this. This looks so dystopian. It's basically like... Look, it's in an octagon and everything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Oh, hence being love is blind is the idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
They can send each other gifs and stuff. But they can't send each other Instagram handles or anything?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Okay, but it's – anyway, okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yeah. Okay, so they talk, and then they commit to marriage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Got it. Their nasal. So let me understand. So then the –
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
the the moment that we saw that went viral with liberal becky yeah was they never saw each other before that moment do they do they only meet at the altar or do they meet in like the days is there a pre-meeting there's like a daisy says no wrong there's a room says i'm typing oh so they meet one time before there's a room where they meet and i think they can propose at that exact moment they can meet if they get engaged they don't have to get engaged
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So the engagement allows them to meet the person they're going to marry. Do some people call off the engagement after they meet them?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
And then they go on a trip together for a week or so. Yeah. And they have to live together, which is also. Yeah, of course. So then they basically live together for a few weeks. Charlie Kirk here. In this new year, it's going to be exciting. 2025 is bringing a regime change in America, a chance to reorder and make things right again in our country.

I think the world of these two men, they've helped me with so many different issues and problems. High integrity, Christian, they share our worldview. Go to Andrew and Todd. So then at the altar, they decide what?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
If they're going to go hang out and get married. Before we get into the clip, these two people invited their entire families on camera to have this public humiliation ritual based on something that might not happen. I think they all have to meet the families. No, but like they invite him to the wedding that may or may not happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
And all these people are like, yeah, we might be on camera and in front of like a hundred million people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
We've got to get to the clip because we're crescendoing to the clip. We're building. It's an orchestra. We're building.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I guarantee you most of our audience have never heard of this stupid thing before. I guarantee you they have. A lot of our audience has taken Hillsdale online courses. We have an enlightened little remnant of American society.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I'm telling you right now, a little remnant. They're studying Aristotle when half of the other audiences.
The Charlie Kirk Show

If you've ever heard of the show, email me, freedom at charliekirk.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
And if so, you should be taxed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I use Netflix. I used it for one thing, and then it got unuseful for Seinfeld reruns.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
And I think they still have it. I bought them all during COVID.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Hulu has Frasier now. Oh, yeah. So I got Hulu for Frasier and Seinfeld for Netflix and everything else. Can we just pause how awful Netflix has become the last five years? It's terrible. You guys should cancel the subscription if you're watching this crap. It's such a waste of money. Have you canceled it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
That's my problem. I do fine, and I like Seinfeld. For me, by the way, I don't want people to complain about their financial situation, which I'm not. I'm very blessed if you were paying for Netflix. I don't pay for a single subscription service. For the record, I also used it to watch the Thanksgiving football game, of which they did a terrible job promoting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
See, I have all of these. I don't have any.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I got Netflix. I got Amazon. I got YouTube TV. I've made a bunch of people a lot of money.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I'm with Andrew. I hate not wanting to watch a sporting event and not having it. And then that's why I have Peacock. I get these emails from Peacock. I don't care about Peacock. But Peacock takes the Big Ten, which is now Oregon.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I agree. Prime is great. You know why I like Prime? I could purchase movies I want to watch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
The best of all is YouTube TV. YouTube TV is the best.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
For live TV, it has great coverage. Okay, so back to The Love is Blind.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I don't think so.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
You don't have a magazine subscription? That's like cannibalism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Nope. Why would I need TSA PreCheck? I almost got them. That one is a subscription.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
What about Uber Plus?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Blake has turning point eats. It's a lot better.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
This is crazy. I can't believe this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
All right, that's me. So speaking of the show, I am trying to understand. So then let's play this piece of tape. So let me understand. So it all culminates with liberal woman and beta male dude kind of. on the altar in this incredibly viral clip. Let's play the longer clip and keep all of us live, guys. Let's play it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
No, no, no. We got to keep playing it. No, no, that's not even. There's a couple more clips. Yeah. By the way, I would have told her to get out of here and cash my check from Love is Blind and go away.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
OK, do we have the kicker where she's sitting around her liberal relatives in the car? Oh my gosh.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
The vaccine. The vaccine. Of course, the vaccine. So I've commented on this extensively. The guy is at fault here for A, not standing up for himself, B, not leaving her. Jack, I know you're an avid Love is Blind fan. What is your take on this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So I would just highly recommend that to anybody who's worried about this. We had an event recently and someone came up threatening and literally reading off my home address, like threatening us live on air there in front of a lot of people. So it's a real problem. Blake, how do we solve this? Because it's a legitimate issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I'm trying to think of the last reality TV show I've watched. Is American Idol reality TV? I feel like that's a game show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
American Idol for four or five seasons was objectively a great show for teenagers. I feel like game shows are not reality shows. American Idol was a good show the first five seasons.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yeah, we had someone from our high school literally win. It was amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Are they going to die? There's a cameraman next to him. They're not going to let him die. They don't let him die. Like, oh, wow. But they do lose a lot of weight. That should be like today's fat camp. That would be cool. Like, yeah, no. Angelo likes the gold mining reality shows. What?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I actually think watching TV could be worse.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
With the stock market at record highs, are you confident your portfolio can weather the next big downturn? Market corrections are quick and unforgiving, wiping out hard-earned gains in an instant. Smart investors know the key to financial security is diversification.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
That's why Noble Gold Investments makes it easy for Americans to help hedge market volatility and diversify their investments with gold. Since 2010, central banks have steadily increased their gold reserves. And in 2024, gold prices soared over 25%. Gold is simple. You buy it, you own it, you control it.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Over $2 billion in precious metal sales, Noble Gold Investments has helped thousands of investors diversify their portfolios with gold IRAs and physical gold. And now when you open a qualified account, Noble Gold will gift you five ounce silver America the Beautiful coins as a thank you. Don't wait for the next downturn to catch you off guard.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
What do you play? So when kids say they play video games, what do they play?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
thing nowadays like the big thing today is every game is on every system i play with bro oh because i grew up in a world where halo was only on xbox yeah yeah that's not only nintendo games are like that and then i turned 18 that's like this is a waste of time i'm gonna go build something yeah well halo is still only on xbox but really so that's not on playstation no that's it's not on pc now well it's maybe on pc so not everything's on everything but can we play the halo music it's really good keep going
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
No, play the original.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yeah, seriously.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
By the way, the guy that wrote the Halo song is like a winger. We talked about that once here on this program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
He didn't win, unfortunately. He came in like fourth place. The original Halo song. Exactly right. Okay, so what? It's a Gregorian chant.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
He's in Vegas. This is good music. You know why this is good music? It feels like you're on a home screen. Oh, my gosh. It feels as if you're going through settings. It has that kind of aura.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
It was like Misty Mountain or something.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Okay, so what is Roblox?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So basically, my takeaway is that nothing has really changed. The same games are still basically the same popular games. Yeah, but they're really nice now. Dude, Charlie, I completely agree with you. Oh, okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I had the same thought. Please, Jack, affirm me because I'm a stranger in the wilderness on this topic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So but let me list it off. OK, so the most popular games of 2025 Call of Duty. I had that. And then I grew up. Madden had that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
final fantasy 8 rebirth which existed ea sports fc 25 i'm guessing is soccer yeah and then minecraft literally nothing has and then grand theft auto is the gta was huge and i was growing up so grand theft auto 5 is the most successful entertainment property of any kind of all time
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Which one was Grand Theft Auto V? Was that L.A. ?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
It was like San Andreas, Los Santos.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So they have not done a new Grand Theft Auto in 12 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So let me ask you, have the graphics gotten better in 12 years? They look the same.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
So the video game I went all in on was Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. KOTOR. Anyone else know that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Were you light side or dark side, though? Wait, Charlie, you were a KOTAR guy? Yeah.

I think one. I tried two and I hated it. It was definitely one. Two was rushed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
It was called a massively multiplayer online role-playing series. What was it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I'm not interested in that. But yes, I took the dark side.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
And then, you know, I'm I think we should keep Arizona Pacific time. Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I feel like I totally agree.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Because it's 7 o'clock Eastern right now, and everyone's going to bed, and I've got a couple hours to get all my thoughts organized, do some text, do some emails. And then if I wake up at 7.30, the East Coast has already sent all their messages to me, so I'm waking up to all of their work. It is more efficient. But what if you had to wake up at 4 a.m., Charlie?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yes, Blake. For the record, I've woken up at ungodly hours many times for 13 years. I've taken more 6 a.m. flights than I think any person on the planet besides pilots and flight attendants. But yes, so... Let me just make sure I understand. The push is to eradicate any time switch in the winter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
We should keep it how it is right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
See, what we want—forget the Pacific time. What we want, though, is—you know how beautiful it was in D.C.? D.C. is a terrible place. It's Sodom. It's awful. No, it's not beautiful in D.C. You know how beautiful it was? The sun's setting at 730 now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
It's amazing. Everyone was happier, chipper. Everyone was more pleasant. Why would we not want the sun to be out longer? Charlie, the sun is out the same amount of time. No, not—if you wake up at— It's actually the same amount of time. If you wake up at 530, it is. If you're a farmer— Yeah. Which most people aren't. Charlie, the farmers don't like daylight saving.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I know the farmers don't like daylight saving because they get up early. Okay? Here's the thing. Listen. And by the way, the sun is not out the same amount of time all year. That's not true.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
First of all, it's not technically true if you design your – Yes, it is. Hold on. It's not technically true if you design your day around Eastern time, of which I do because I have a radio show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
You guys are technically correct. Okay, but it gets longer throughout the year. However, if you configure your clock back or forward a day, then you adjust your own circadian rhythm. I like the sun in the evening. Sun in evening. I am team sun in evening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Wait, so you're trying to just understand that. So for eight months out of the year, we are on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I don't care who invented what. I like it. I like it. I like I like the beautiful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
All I know is that there's more sunlight. Because we change the clocks in the evening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Yeah, Huberman's 100% correct. Yeah, Huberman's all screwed up on this. He's like, oh, you want morning sun. You know what? I like evening sun. Evening sun's very good for you. And for the record, he says both are good. But both morning and evening sun could be good for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Everyone is happy when we spring ahead.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
But it changes based on your configuration. That's what's funny is that the Arizona guys are all up in arms over it, but it actually doesn't affect them at all. It does if you are on eastern position time. I have to wake up now an hour earlier because of time changing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I like being three hours behind. I see all the news of the day. I'm processing it. It has good incoming. And by the way, we end the show at 11 a.m. You know how awesome that is? I have the whole day ahead of me. Yep. All right. With that, everybody, keep on committing thought crimes, and I will personally lobby the president to keep it lighter later. Reject. Talk to you soon.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I will I will say this, too, that it seems to be a predominantly right on the right problem. I don't know a lot of left people that I think this was bipartisan for a time. And I just have to compliment the police forces, though.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
the police forces praise god they've been going in a lot more restrained and they're getting prepped on this and they are getting uh for example you know where our headquarters is and everyone can figure that out like we've sat down with police and like we're on a list that if there's ever a crisis call like they have to now do kind of like a well like they have to call back and be like is it actually which actually makes things more dangerous when you think like god forbid there was ever a crisis here on the turning point campus
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Now the police are wondering, are they going into an actual crisis, or is this a prank? Does that make sense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
The whole tech team there, they could defend Taiwan.

Ryan says, just send an ambulance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I mean, I think it's repulsive, and I think the FBI should get involved. I mean, I think it's an interstate. It's almost always interstate. It's almost never in the same state. Is that correct? Almost never.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I think someone has gotten killed via a SWAT. That's the Wichita one. I don't know that a politics one has gotten anyone killed. But I think police forces are getting better and better at receiving these. Don't you agree? But again, I want to just repeat this. God forbid that there's an actual hostage situation or an actual crisis like this. And they go on not thinking it's real and it is real.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
I mean, it's bad for everybody. I think it's even worse than attempted murder. I think it's an act of terrorism. I think that it's bad for the entire community, bad for the police force. I know that might sound like a exorbitant statement, but the goal is absolutely to get people killed.

Basically, everything was fine up until the cannibalism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
After the Democrat Party, everything was cool. The tranny part, the OnlyFans thing, but the eating.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
By the way, you have to look at this. It's disgusting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 76 — Cannibal Democrats? Subscription Services? VR Prisons?
Is there actually Reddits dedicated towards cannibalism?

I got a lot of good content from R the Donald. Apparently worse than cannibalism. I've never been able to. Rest in peace.

He's the Grand Marshal of the gay parade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I will say, I never thought it at all my entire life. And then Tyler mentions it and it half ruins it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Yeah, that's what I think. That's what I think when I think of Italy. All I'm saying is through a 2025 lens, you watch the movie 20 years later, and it's just you can't help but think because we look at all of that stuff as homoerotic and gay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Oh, no, no. He completely wrecked it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
And if you watch the movie closely, near the beginning at Bilbo Baggins' 110th or 111th birthday, Sam was really nervous to go up and talk to the ladies or the woman. So he needed like an extra thing of beer and had to be thrown into it. That's really straight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
So we have a series of topics today that are unusual. One of them is about someone I don't really know. I think he dated Kim Kardashian. Blake, introduce us to our first topic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Not nervous to talk to Marion Pippen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
What else are you going to ruin for me?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
The Godfather is really kind of like... It wasn't really about five families. It was kind of like a gay conclave that was running inner Italian mafia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Citizen Kane. It's not... Gay. Not under every rock.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
That's the new one.
The Charlie Kirk Show

That's the new one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
That's the new one. Both of them have volleyball scenes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I forgot there was an original volleyball one. I thought there was only the new one.

Okay, Blake, take us further.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I have thoughts. Charlie, you have thoughts. Yeah, Andrew, you go first. No, I want to hear the argument as to why the government should be involved in this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
So I go for a lot of walks and I take my kids for walks, especially the more newborn ones. And I never use headphones. I just listen to my audio books just straight out of the phone. So is that, should that be regulated if I'm going for a walk on a sidewalk or I'm walking around? First of all, I don't like the headphones. Number two, I think ear pods are actually really dangerous and bad for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
That's a whole separate topic and different issue. But as I guess on an airplane, I suppose, but, but, But hold on, if you also have headphones in, then how does it affect you if somebody else doesn't have headphones in? So, Blake, what is your argument here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
All right, you won me over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I think as long as you can walk in public spaces, then I'm good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I think there will be a fight for some of these undersecretaries in the Department of Defense. I don't think it will be a big fight, but... I think that even though they got Hegseth in, there are some people that are against the neoconservative dogma that might be a fight. There's been some rumbling about people like Bridge Colby, who's amazing, by the way, and some of those other ones.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
So keep an eye on that. They have very important jobs in the Department of Defense. And then Cash should be the really big one, the last big one. And I think he's going to sail through. But Tulsi and Bobby were the big, big, big ones. Tulsi, Bobby, Hegseth were the true changemakers. It's incredible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I'm with the French on this. I think they're right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Also, it affects other people. Yeah, it's the non-aggression principle, which is you can do whatever you want to do as long as it doesn't harm somebody else. So definitionally, if you're listening to a movie on a plane, you're harming somebody else. No one's saying you can't listen to the movie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
You just have to do it in a way that doesn't impact the livelihood or the journey in that case of the people around you, the passengers. Fair enough.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I can't remember if we did a thought crime on this or not, but typically and traditionally, the dogma is that mass deregulation raises the quality. Airlines is the opposite, actually. Ted Kennedy led a mass deregulation crusade of the airlines in the 1980s, and it resulted in worse air travel, more delays. a worse experience, and not even better prices.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
That's the thing is that there was kind of an advent of cheaper airfare. And now that window has closed through mass consolidation and mass regulation. And look, that's probably Pan Am, which my grandfather actually helped run Pan Am way back in the day. And look, I mean, that was before Teddy Kennedy decided to just
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
just wreck it all and if you ask anybody over the age of 60 do they look fondly back on how airfare used to be i mean uh just airlines used to be i mean they'll it's like they're talking about narnia sorry sorry charlie i'm gonna call you on this one they actually did get cheaper uh no but not but what charlie's saying is the prices have come back up because of consolidation
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
So, no, this is a good point, Blake. So let me ask somebody a question here. So would you rather pay, let's just say, $700 for a ticket for that experience or $300 for the current experience? $300 in a heartbeat. That's a legitimate question. From L.A. to New York. I would pay $1,000.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
to not have some cat on me yeah but how much do you make in a year charlie foot scrapings of course i have the money but your your money i also won't i don't spend money on stupid stuff so yeah i'm just saying even in early days of the career i would put money towards um Look at this. That's Blake Airlines right there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Tyler's been on the Tulsi Gabbard list for a while.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
The trash food sucks. The food sucks. Expired Diet Coke. And you get coffee that is indistinguishable from jet fuel. And you might get peanuts. And like my favorite, I mean, again, I have millions of miles of flying, right? Million mile club in America, 2 million miles of America, million with United, million with Delta.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
And I always loved when I was flying American where they would act as if, Mr. Kirk, thank you so much for being concierge key and for being a 2 million mile flyer. Would you like a cheese tray? Yeah. Yes. Thank you. Very much appreciate. And I actually would cherish the cheese tray. Yes. Because in this sea of scum, I would have a slice of cheddar cheese.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Savor. Not save. Savor. And then I would get my jet fuel coffee, my jet fuel coffee. And I just, I thought that was the greatest thing ever. And then I look at this Pan Am experience and we've been propagandized to believe that
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Blake thought that this was a bad part of America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
That was the old way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
By the way, the, the, the average, the average, the average flight attendant could be in Lord of the Rings.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
in the aisle no yeah they're like no okay so so here's my here's my here's my advice on how we fix air travel it's very simple and everyone loves it you charge 25 more and you get rid of middle seats and you make the whole cabin first class yes a whole a whole first class work yes
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
that's jsx and it works really well and jsx is very profitable and they sell out and it's all regional out here west if you'll know what jsx it's amazing you can fly from scottsdale to vegas or scottsdale to la and yeah you'd have to charge like 33 more i think there's a huge market for that and then by the way if you want to go be treated like a piece of cattle to go fly from phoenix tampa
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Vaya con Dios. Fine. Great. You can take the bus. That's what it's become. It's a bus and it's an insult because you fly on these other European airlines or, you know, fly LL and all of a sudden they have like pride and they love their airline. It's like a representation. Just think about it. Think about if you're from Europe or the Middle East and you're flying something called American Airlines.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
american airlines so as the name of our country by the way you fly you fly the emirates you fly turkish airlines you fly you know qatar airways you they have like pride in their nation and they're all thin and they're cut and they know what's going on and they love their country and they're a representation and you fly american airlines And it is the sloppiest, slovenly, nobody cares.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
The flight attendants won't even look you in the eye. It's like they're annoyed that you're there. I think it's a bad representation of the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
$55. I'm sorry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
That's not an airline. No, no, no, no, no, no. That's Amtrak in the air. No, no, no. Charlie, if you don't think it's amazing... If you're flying Spirit, you might leave that week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
This is what the Wright brothers died for. He's about American Airlines. The Blake doesn't understand. No, Spirit Airlines charges you for more than one bag. So you only get one carry-on. The second one is another $50. So don't have a carry-on. It's $100. They charge you for water. How many carry-ons do you need? They charge you for water. Don't get water.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
You can't spare a square. And by the way, the clientele of Spirit Airlines is middle class.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
He had Trump Air for a while. He literally had Trump Air.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
And the Bible does prohibit tattoos, just saying. Yeah, I mean, I think everyone... The Bible does prohibit it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
All right. We got about 10 minutes here. Do you want to, Blake, tell us why America is super healthy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
No, I agree with Tyler. So Blake, why don't you uninterruptedly tell us why America is so sick, so lethargic, so suicidal, so overweight, so anxious, so depressed. You don't think it's any of the Maha stuff. So the burden is on you because the data is objective. All those things are happening. Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I am a big homeopathy, but I think you should pay for it yourself. I'm a believer that there's a lot more in the natural world that could help you than drugs. But Blake, one of the... The guiding principles of Maha is that there is an invisible environmental toxin that is doing something we don't quite know what. So you're kind of in the thesis then with the plastic thing. I'm surprised.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
You're kind of within the genre that there is an invisible force that is doing something to us. We don't quite know what, but we have to figure out what that is. That is kind of the core premise of Maha.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
No, or tattoo yourself. Or tattoo yourself.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I'm a month older. Yeah, that's right. That's crazy. I didn't I mean, so can we put the can we put the picture up for anyone who's gay or a woman? Is this considered a good looking man? I would like I would like someone to instruct me.

Okay, everybody, it is Thought Crime Thursday, and we are here live with Blake, Andrew, and Jack. Did I get that right? I always say that before I can say it. Oh, no, Tyler, there's no Jack.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I watched Lord of the Rings this weekend, and Tyler ruined it for me. I have to just be honest. You agree with him now? Every time Frodo and Sam. You gave in to this? No, I don't. You see it. No. You see it now. I don't agree. I'm saying that he ruined it. I always used to look at it as, you know, brotherly love. And then Frodo and Sam, there's some very long gazes. It's brotherly love.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
I don't want to say Tyler's on to something, but like.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
No, no, no. After Tyler gets in your head about this and then all of a sudden you can't unsee it. I'm not even saying it's right. I'm saying you kind of infer it. And geez, Frodo doesn't look at women that way. This is Peter Jackson's fault. Doesn't look at the woman in the woods that way. Doesn't look at Liv Tyler that way. That's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
And then you really start wondering, like, Merry, Pippin, Sam, and Frodo are all sharing a room. And you really start thinking about things you shouldn't be thinking about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
What conversation are we having?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
And you've got to wonder, like, what are they actually doing in Rivendell? What are they really doing in Rivendell? Because you look at it through kind of the modern woke lens, and I'm not saying Tyler's right, but it half ruined the movie for me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Once you see it through the Tyler lens, it's not that he's right, it's just you can't unsee it and it kind of ruins the film.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Jack is in Ukraine. Is that right? Jack has enlisted to be a fighting force soldier of Zelensky. Is that correct? He's front lines.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
Is that the goal, Tyler? The story itself... The story itself is not necessarily homoerotic, but there's, like, gazes that are, like, half a second, two seconds too long, and then, like, the whole, like, Sam, I'm so glad I have you with me. It's, like, completely unnecessary extra lines of dialogue. I'm sorry. I, like, I rewatched it, and it's such a good movie, and it's so amazing, but...
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 73 — Does Flying Stink Now? MAHA Day 1? LOTR = Gay?
if you kind of go back to watch a movie 20 years ago through modern ultra like let's just say gay lens of film you see some things there you got boy if that was made in 2025 it would be brokeback mountain it would be awful this this reminds me this reminds me of what happened with abraham lincoln right so he had this really close friendship with a guy named joshua fry speed

Are you ready to lose weight, but not sure where to start? I understand. I was right where you are two years ago. Let me tell you why I chose the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition. Her program is based on years of research and is science-based. Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition. There is so much more.

They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind. and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place. There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change. And finally, and probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds. Look, they're amazing.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I said, no, no, no, no, no, no. That will be later in the week. Jack, open us up with our manifest destiny topic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
No, no, please continue, Blake.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
So it's 85%, 85% Inuit, and then 15% Dane of just people that have come over and they help run businesses or whatever. Now, it's an amazing thing. So we went to the cultural museum, which I wish I could have spent more time. It was really well set up. Yeah. They have these drawings of the people of Greenland that were there like 800 years ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
And it makes you think like these people survived the negative 10 degree weather with insanely harsh winds and a very unforgiving climate like 800 years ago. I mean, these are tough, tough people. And I know that's not the only culture like that. Alaska has something similar. Northern Canada has something similar. Siberia has something similar. But it was just really amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I got a little insight into how tough the people of Greenland actually are. And I did try the local cuisine. I had whale and seal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I've heard whale was good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
So, no, I did not actually – I did not kill any of the animals that I ate. We didn't have time. However, whale – someone says, what does whale taste like? It's like really chewy steak. That's what it tastes like. So Don Jr., who is an unbelievable outdoorsman, like legit, like no – He said he's eaten whale before. This whale in Greenland was... Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
He said the whale that he had in Greenland was way better than the whale that he had in Alaska. So for whatever that's worth, the whale in Greenland is quite good. So we tried all the local fare and... was really kind of impressed by the people of Greenland. I will also say though, I mean, this is just a side note. You think about how far does social media reach?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
There were young people coming up, hundreds of them, asking for selfies from Don and I saying, we follow you on TikTok. We follow you on TikTok. I mean, it is a worldwide phenomenon, guys. So let me ask a question, Blake, Jack, and Tyler. Knowing what you know, and I'm going to kind of just listen because I have my own thoughts, obviously being on the ground and listening to things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
How do you think Donald Trump should go about brokering this deal?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
It is. Nova Nordisk is a Danish company. That is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
That's right. It is a Danish – I am 100% sure it is a Danish company.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
It's a – It's a multi-trillion dollar company.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Let me get this straight. We have the greatest fighting force in the history of the planet, nuclear weapons, F-35s, drones, Marines, Navy SEALs. They have Ozempic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I thought it was more than that. I think that if it gets on the Medicaid schedule here in America, it will be a trillion-dollar company. That is correct. So, by the way, what a great negotiation tool that we have. Yes, yes. No, no, it's a huge thing, by the way. It's being debated right now, actually. No, no, no. Jack, for children, look up Ozembic Medicaid Congress. It's a huge debate right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
What a great negotiation tool that Trump has. Like, oh, it'd be a shame if Ozembic was banned in America. It'd be a shame if Ozembic wasn't allowed to be sold here. I mean, you guys want Greenland that bad? Or do you want to be able to sell your weight loss drug in the United States of America?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
So let me ask Blake. So some people, President Trump has not dismissed the possibility of using military force. Blake, what is your thoughts on Donald Trump just saying, take it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
No, I'm not. I genuinely think. I'm not necessarily supportive of it. I think that it comes with huge risks to NATO country, but walk us through it. I mean, don't analytically go through it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Hey, to my credit, though, I was sworn to secrecy. I could have leaked it and all that. It drives me nuts when people do that. So you guys understand. You've got to take that stuff seriously. It's nothing personal. You just, you know, there's a lot going into this stuff, and you tell three people who then tell ten people, and the next thing you know, the New York Times is calling you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
So there's some footage of me in Greenland. It was really remarkable. I've got to be honest. First of all... This is kind of an unfair question. Has anyone here been to Greenland? Jack actually might have been to Greenland because of his time in the Navy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
So we all agree. We're getting Greenland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Let's now move to the DE – let's go to DEI fire. Now, in some ways, the Charlie Kirk show today was a little bit thought-crimey. I mean, here's how you know that you are over the target. When you say stuff on the Charlie Kirk show that otherwise should be said on thought crime, and not one Media Matters article is written up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Blake sent me one of the – I cannot believe this has not gotten more coverage for the record. I don't know why this particular thing is so bothering to me, bothersome.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
los angeles who's burning right now dear friend of mine stacy friend of ours her house burned down is awful we know so many people have los angeles has three police chiefs that are all named kristin and they're all lesbian and there's a fourth who's also lesbian but she's not named kristin you're whatever sorry fire chief blake is this true is this some sort of a troll

141.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Yeah, yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Are they like trolling victims?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
So it is objectively one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. It reminds me of like deep interior Alaska, like untouched, wild, where you come in contact with God's creation with no filter. a place where there is a town and then there's no connection to modernity from that point forward. I mean, there's polar bears that just walk through downtown, which is the largest town in Greenland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Do you think that people are going to move out? Jack, go ahead.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
It's a great film. It's a great film.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
That is a great word for it. It is a frontier country territory. We'll get into all the details there. So just kind of some backstory. Don Jr. called me up and he said, hey, do you want to pop on Trump Force One and fly with me to Greenland? I'm like... Yeah, I'll do that. So we took off at 2 a.m. local standard time in Palm Beach.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I know this is kind of a very simple question and kind of cliche. Do you think this will result in any political changes? Tyler, you're the political guy. Is this going to result in any political changes in California?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
I did one of the things I hate most, which is to fly a red-eye flight. Pretty easy to fly a red-eye flight on Trump Force One, might I add, though. So landed in Greenland as the sun was rising at 11 a.m. local time. got off the plane. We were greeted by hundreds of people in MAGA hats. We went to some of their sacred sites.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
Keep going, Tyler.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
We went to the top of this hill and took those pictures as the sun was rising. We had an amazing meal with a bunch of local Greenlanders. We went to the local cultural museum and ended the day at one of their top kind of bar, hangout, cheers, if you will, restaurants. I learned a lot. Number one, the people of Greenland, they hate hate the Danes. They hate Denmark.

They say that they are mistreated by Denmark. They say that Denmark has lied to them and has really abused them. Number two, there is so much untapped potential in Greenland. There was a young man that came up to me and he said, Charlie, I follow you on TikTok. Let me show you this picture. And it was a picture of him. He said, in my local village, we find these all the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 69 — The Gulf of America? Greenland Joining the USA? DEI Firefighters?
They are rubies the size of baseballs, guys. I mean, there is the nickel, the aluminum, the lithium, the rubies, the gold, the natural resources. I mean, it is one of the most abundant natural resource banks or reservoirs, whatever you want to say, on the planet. And the final thing is this, is they love America. They are, the power of American culture is, MAGA is a worldwide movement.

I guess without even seeing. I've got to tell you, I'm getting better at this. I don't even know who I have. The reason I knew that Andrew wasn't on is I just got off the phone with him, so I was like, very unlikely. So, Jack, why don't we start with this? Jack pitched to – we were doing two thought crimes this week. On Monday, Jack said, hey, why don't we do a thought crime on Greenland?

They love America. They do not like the Danes. It is some of the most beautiful country I have ever seen. Just untouched.

So explain to me, as a layman, how it's possible that fire hydrants don't have water and that there's a lack of water to fight fires. Help me understand that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
So help me understand, I mean, wouldn't part of the problem based on what you're describing is a water supply. And so just capturing more water from rainfall would definitionally then help the supply and you would have a surplus. There's billions of tons of water that very well could be captured from rainfall that they let go into the ocean, right?

Isabel Brown is very popular on TikTok. TikTok, by the way, is scheduled to be banned in the United States on the 19th of January, coming up in nine days from now. It's going to be in the hands of President Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
The law gives President Trump the ability to either keep the ban or to allow TikTok to operate or to allow it under what could be some sort of a settlement. But in the meantime, the Supreme Court may strike down the law, allow TikTok to continue to operate. Over 170 million Americans use TikTok, and we reach billions of people on TikTok. Joining us now is Isabel Brown.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Isabel, welcome to the program. Isabel, talk about the profound impact that TikTok has had making Gen Z more conservative.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
What would a ban of TikTok mean for conservative creators and the progress you've been making to make Gen Z red?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
No, and look, people can make fun of it, but there is significant geopolitical reasons for Greenland to be part of the United States, natural resource reasons. And the way to look at it is either China, Russia, or the United States will end up controlling Greenland. Take your pick. And consolidating North American and hemispheric hegemony is critical.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency. Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule.

Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
This video right here got 50 million views. Play cut 157. Are you voting for Kamala? I am. Okay, what is her... What is her greatest... Free speech? Free speech? Yeah, they have the freedom of speech to boo you. That's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Let's just tell me, what is Kamala Harris' greatest accomplishment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com. TikTok is scheduled to be banned on the 19th, and I was a skeptic, and I saw the impact and the power that TikTok can have. So, Isabel, TikTok is scheduled to be banned on the 19th of January. The Supreme Court heard the case today. We have no idea how that case will end up. It might strike down the law, which is very unlikely.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
President Trump has it in his ability to save TikTok. The law allows the president to strike a deal to say what is a qualified divestiture. I was just reading about it. Do you think President Trump should save TikTok?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
As China rises, we need to have a safe haven of a hemispheric free society. And the Panama Canal is critical to that, and so is Greenland. So, Senator, we need you to carry that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
The ramifications for banning TikTok, how many... how many small businesses use TikTok? What are the economic potential ramifications here? Again, I think that something needs to be probably cleaned up on the data side, make sure that American data is not shared with the Chinese Communist Party, some sort of deal struck, maybe bring in a third party data company. I'm just thinking out loud here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
But as a creator, I was super skeptical. And Isabel, you were like, no, you got to use TikTok. You Because we were banned so many times. We got banned from TikTok like 35 times. And Ryan was like, you got to keep posting. So we sent out this big tweet and we said, hey, if you're going to treat us fairly, we're going to keep posting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
And now we got like five and a half million followers and billions and billions of views. And so what would the economic impact of such a TikTok ban be?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Final question here, Isabel, if President Trump saves TikTok, what would that mean for our worldview and for him? Would that be a big win?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Isabel, great work. Thank you. I know you have many followers on TikTok. And I think President Trump benefited tremendously from TikTok. I don't know if he would have won the youth vote. And I do know this. He would not have won the presidency without the youth vote. Young people moved dramatically in his direction. Boomers moved in Kamala Harris's direction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Boomers were three or four points towards Kamala Harris. Donald Trump would have lost the presidency. You can make an argument. It's a little bit of a reach, but it's there that President Trump might not have won the White House without TikTok. There's an argument to be made there because we know that he would not have won it without younger voters. Isabel, thank you so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Text this episode to a couple of friends and donate to Turning Point USA at TPUSA.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.

Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
And yeah, we will have the Gulf of America and then we can have the moon of America. We'll see. All right, Senator, speaking of Space Force, that is under Pete Hegseth's potential jurisdiction. Pete Hegseth went from the media saying he was dead and on life support now to looking as if it's almost a guarantee he will be confirmed. Is that the correct analysis?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
And what is the schedule in front of us?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Disaster. No, it was more than the mask, Senator. It was the mask with the visor. with the entire kind of, it was, he was wearing the face mask and then he had the shield. Yeah. The face shield, uh, which was just a joke. I'm not to mention, remember secretary Austin was privately hospitalized without informing the chain of command. This happened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
And he was, we really didn't have like a secretary of defense for some time, which is just completely outrageous. So this is important. Everybody, Pete Hegseth looked as if He was just dead to rights. It was over. And you in this audience helped pull Pete Hegseth across the finish line. You took out your shovels. You did the ditch work that was necessary. And here we are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Pete Hegseth is now almost a guarantee to be confirmed. We drew a red line. We said, Miss Ernst, back off. And it turns as if the message was heard loud and clear. Senator, the the other confirmations. Can you explain to our audience how you do confirmations even before the Trump administration begins? Can you just explain how that all works?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Senator, the the Senate schedule is going to be rather ambitious. Can you kind of bring us into the room? President Trump took D.C. by storm the last couple of days. I talked to a couple of lawmakers. They said, yeah, you know, we had an ambitious schedule. Then President Trump mentioned another 55 things he wants to get done. Bring us into the room.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
What was it like hearing from President Trump in D.C. these last couple of days?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Joining us now is Senator Eric Schmidt, who does a phenomenal job. Senator, thank you for taking the time. Senator, update us. What is the confirmation schedule that we are looking at here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
That's so important. And also, if you have one big bill and fails, that's your whole legislative agenda potentially. Right. And if you get an early border bill reconciliation, we can build up momentum. What is the argument for one bill? I've heard it. Let's just kind of steel man that. And who is the one? This is not a criticism. I'm friends with a lot of them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
It seems like the House is more in favor of one bill and the Senate is more in favor of two bills. Is that correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
So final question. I heard from somebody who was in some of these meetings yesterday on President Trump's team. They said it was a remarkably different type of tone being around the Senate conference than it was in 2019 or 2020. It seems that there was an agreement amongst the senators that this was Trump's party and that MAGA was here to stay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Did you get that sense with your meetings with President Trump these last couple of days?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Pete Hegseth, Pam Bondi, Sean Duffy, what are we looking at?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Senator, you do a great job. We'll see you next week at the inauguration. Thanks so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Trump's Cabinet Will Change D.C. Forever
Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here with New Year's resolutions. Many of us will vow to eat healthier, and that's a good thing. But what about your beloved pets and their nutrition? Naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black is on a mission to provide better nutrition for cats and dogs because truthfully, it's not what you are feeding your pet.

Hey everybody, this is the entirety of my conversation with Gavin Newsom, but also with my commentary. If you want to listen to it without any commentary, that is on Gavin Newsom's podcast page, which I have an obligatory, let's just say, duty to say. If you want to listen to that, you can go to this is Gavin Newsom.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That's one of my big critiques is that at a lot of these schools, they're not pursuing what is good, true and beautiful. It's become the oppression Olympics and a weaponized complaint seminar of people sitting in the circle and finding out who's the who's been offended the most that day. That's not doing anybody any good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And in fact, it creates a very weak political movement, which I think plays into one of the reasons why we were able to steamroll you guys back in November is that once there's a little opposition against a group of people that have never actually been, you know, had to build the muscle mass of a very difficult and unpredictable world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm going to be giving commentary throughout this conversation about some of my thoughts, but it is the entire thing that you'll be able to watch. Also, the full unedited, let's just say with no commentary, is on Gavin Newsom's YouTube page, but I think you want to stay right here. Make sure you guys hit subscribe on this extremely viral conversation that I had with Gavin Newsom.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Whereas those of us that are conservatives were insulted all the time. So think about the experience of a kid on a college campus. They say they're graded differently because of their views. They may or may not be right. I think they are. But they're definitely in the ideological minority, right? You wear a Trump hat on a college campus, at least until we came around.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That was like a big sign of cultural rebellion. So you have two choices. You can either stop fighting for what you believe in or you become really tough. And you create that muscle that allows you to then carry and shoulder a heavier burden.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
All of this is true. It's just not everyone that goes to college graduates. The national graduation rate. 41% drop or something. Yeah, 41% dropout. Exactly right. Also, half the kids that graduate college will not even end up using their degree when it comes to the affiliated job. So the numbers are true at the highest income.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So about 10% of kids that go to college stretch out the averages to be really, really high. Got it. And so, for example, you go to Caltech to study computer engineering and applied AI. Next level. Next level. You're crushing it, right? You go to Cal to go study North African lesbian poetry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That's one of the courses. See, the fact that you don't know.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I know. It should be like, no way. But the fact it's a maybe, we got some problems.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I want to meet this guy. He's coming to a Turning Point event this summer, Tampa, Florida, Student Action Summit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Starts out with Gavin Newsom talking about how his son is a big fan of mine? history of Turning Point USA, history of what we've done at Turning Point USA, and our goals and mission. By the way, anyone out there, you guys should get involved with Turning Point USA. You should start a Turning Point USA chapter. You should get involved with Turning Point Action. We are moving the dial.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yes. That you've figured something out. It's not me. The president first deserves the credit. But why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yeah, but the president deserves huge credit. And I just have to say that as an obligatory thing. Because without him, our movement would be small. And you can appreciate that in politics. You have to appreciate the person who is the catalyst.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It was also just the catalyst. It was a cultural moment that just opened us up. But...
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I was more like, as I mentioned, Ron Paul, Rand Paul libertarian. That's where the energy really was. Right. And then President Trump comes on. Again, I was still very early in my political journey. So you're looking up a lot. You know, who's the top voices? What do you believe? Why do you believe it? Yeah. So more libertarian. It was more. And I still have some libertarian leanings on some.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
No, I was I was mystified at first.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It's funny. I actually sent out a tweet very like 2011 when I was in high school saying Trump should run for office. But I was not mystified negatively. I was like, can this really happen? Can a guy that has no political experience come down an escalator, challenge the whole establishment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I didn't disagree with it. You didn't? Yeah. And again, this is well documented. Early in my journey, I underestimated the silent majority that really wanted a rebalancing of the American political landscape. So interesting. While we may have won this election, the fight to restore our great nation is only beginning. Now is the time to take a stand, and Patriot Mobile is leading the charge.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So now then Gavin Newsom asked me about the impact that turning point action made this last election cycle. I bragged on a little bit, but just to reiterate, at turning point action, we had over 1,000 people on the ground in Arizona and Wisconsin chasing ballots. We were registering voters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
In fact, a pollster from Signal Polling showed that when we visited college campuses, students moved dramatically more in President Trump's direction versus campuses we did not. So we have two arms. We have Turning Point USA, which is our high school and our college chapter beast. Also, Turning Point Academy, TPUSA Faith, Blexit, all the great work that we do on digital social media.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We are bringing this generation to the finish line to be a conservative generation. So here it is, the beginning of my chat with Governor Gavin Newsom. By the way, what brings you to California, your favorite state? It is my favorite state in the Union. You're doing such a great job here, by the way. No, I'm honored to be on the show. Thank you. You were just down at USC? I was at USC yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And you guys should get involved with Turning Point USA. And then Turning Point Action, our 501c4 organization, all about how we are recruiting candidates, trying to make the Republican Party more conservative and more Republican, how we are chasing ballots. That is tpaction.com. And they kind of harmonize together towards an overarching view to save Western civilization.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Now, is Governor Newsom being authentic here? I don't think so. I think that he was just trying to bring the temperature of the conversation down. I always try to meet a guest at their frequency. At the same time, you have to challenge that guest. You have to challenge them on what they believe and why they believe it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So this is a little bit of a conversation about how we dominated this last election cycle. And what President Trump was able to do. I believe that turning point action was one of the most important outside groups. The ballots we chased, the ground game. And by the way, the media was always like, oh, Charlie Kirk is going to ruin the ground game for the right. Turns out it wasn't ruined.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Turns out that we were more successful than ever before. Watch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
The political argument. So one is more educational. One is more political. And we did ballot chasing in Arizona and Wisconsin. We were successful in that. Alongside the Trump campaign, Arizona was the best performing swing state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We were modeling off of some of the ballot chasing ballot harvesting practices of the left. Yeah. But I mean, there's again, that's a that's a self limiting principle. You can't ballot chase if no one wants to vote for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So, I mean, you could have the best organizers in the world. You have 2000 people chasing ballots in Arizona. And you're running Kamala Harris in Arizona. What you actually was and what we end up tracking through our data is that the Democrats were chasing for us. is that they were chasing low-propensity Hispanics thinking that they were all for Kamala.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And in fact, we were looking at the precinct numbers of areas we didn't hit that moved like 20 points in Trump's direction. We're like, well, thank you very much, Kamala campaign, for getting out and chasing our ballots and for all these Hispanic men that are mechanics. We appreciate it. Thanks for... making sure that we also won Dave McCormick's Senate seat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So again, chasing is only one part of the... Like, Democrats, of course, are better organizers than us. I mean, it's in your blood. Barack Obama was a community organizer. We make fun of it. It's who you guys are. You guys have labor as a backbone, clipboard and tennis shoes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We can talk about that in a moment. But what we always felt that we had is we felt we had better ideas and a better message and all that. The idea was can we combo a little bit of organizing practices with a mass movement, which is how you get a national popular vote victory and an overwhelming electoral landslide.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Actually, that has a backfiring effect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Roll over. In essence, he said that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
waiting for the moment to finally strike strike struck me as not necessarily the best advice and it's not a knock on carville who i have deep respect for what's your thoughts okay so i don't have to um he was he's read about one thing in the last 40 years it's economy stupid and boy has he spent he spent down that one line pretty amazingly um but yeah look i'll say i don't make this about carville but like yeah i hope you guys retreat
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You kind of like the advice. More for us? I mean, there's no opposition. There's no activist spark. You guys are posting these cringe videos on social media.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I don't know, this harmonious thing of like 22 senators all saying the same thing. You didn't like that, yeah. I didn't like it. Go ahead. Go do more of that.

My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I mean, like if you want to like you have an opportunity to like, you know, run to the middle and see this man's office. You're talking to me about people. So Governor Newsom then asks my advice for the Democrat Party. What you are about to see is the most viral part of our entire conversation. It's Governor Newsom that has pivoted away from the consensus on the Democrat Party on a major issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It is an 80-20 issue against the Democrats. And it's a major debate. We believe we are on the right side of this debate, obviously. And Governor Newsom is receiving huge backlash for this very tape. And I politely but very firmly pushed Governor Newsom on why he would not speak out on this critically, I believe, civilizationally defining issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Here it is, the most viral element of this entire discussion. So, like, you right now should come out and be like, you know what? The young man who's about to win the state championship in the long jump in female sports, that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should step out and say no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You never know. These kids are going to the right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Would you speak out against this young man, A.B. Hernandez, who right now is going to win the state championship in the long run?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
No, no, but I just didn't realize. It's 890 medals and trophies that we know of in the last five years. That's a lot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You asked a good faith question. Like, how do we Democrats get out of the wilderness? Yeah. This one is an 80-20 issue. New York Times poll, right? No, I agree with you. We're getting crushed on it. Crushed. And you have an opportunity in the state to be like, look, I have a heart for A.B. Hernandez. I have a heart for the San Jose volleyball player. Let's give them compassion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
What's not fair is just for like a woman's, entire woman's sports. I agree. By the way, I agree with you. I agree with you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I wish that we would have done this podcast last week. Last week? Well, because the U.S. Senate just voted, every Democrat voted against that bill. And I'm just telling you, like, again, I'm not one to give Governor Newsom advice. You guys are giving us an 80-20 issue that is just permeating the country. It's such an affront to our senses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And you look at these videos, Governor, because it's not just that it's okay, you read an article about it. But these young men that are, you know, are in these sports, they're throwing around girls. And it is an issue of fairness, but it goes to a broader arch narrative. There you go. Which is important.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Which is this, that the Democrats, you guys will tend to view an incident through an oppressed or repressed lens. Yeah. It's your training. It comes from college. It comes from, and we as conservatives tend to view things through right or wrong or just or unjust.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And the country is going far more in our direction and away from your direction because the problem with oppressor-oppressed is eventually you run out of oppressors and you start creating them out of thin air. And you start trying to say, well, these people must be blamed for all of our problems. And that's where you get a lot of the...
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Let's just say a lot of, for example, there's a Wall Street Journal editorial like, when will the white men shut up or stop complaining? That does no good for anybody, right? So what I'm getting at, though, is it's a worldview difference, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Of course it is, because it's also pattern recognition. It's pattern recognition of a Democrat party that post 2020 decided to go all in. We call it woke. You might call it, you know, justice or whatever it is. But it's so outside of what we would consider traditional Americans norms and customs. And again, so a Democrat strategist would say, oh, Charlie, you're weaponizing stuff, not you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But like, that's a typical, typical thing. But the most effective ad of this election cycle, the most effective ad.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Devastating. Devastating. Devastating.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And let's talk about why it was devastating. Number one, it was the trans issue that was just monopolizing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You canceled school for like two years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And then she's like enthusiastically defending it, bragging, being like, I'm all for this. So then the conversation shifted, as you're about to see, all about wokeism. Now, how do you define woke? Woke. is calling something racist or unjust until you control it. I probably should have chimed that in there with this chat with Governor Newsom. I actually think I did pretty well here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We're talking about the border crisis, all of the crimes that BLM allegedly committed, also Robin DiAngelo's white fragility. In California, they are the petri dish of these very ideas. Again, I was able to get some of that into this conversation. I probably could have done an even better job of listing off one, two, three, four, five examples. But there's only so much you could prep on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We were prepped on homelessness and cost of living and cost of housing. But understand, Gavin Newsom, he is the Anthony Fauci of CRT. He is the person that has been pushing forward CRT and DEI for his entire career through California, and California is the Wuhan Institute of Virology of wokeism.

From the UC system, Cal Berkeley, Stanford, it all happens in California, and it's being taught to kids on a daily basis. And then you had the video that it was a validator.

And then Charlemagne comes out on Breakfast Club is like, this is insane. And they ran it on NFL football.

Yes. And so you're trying to reach men. It's not like it's not... It's a brilliant campaign commercial. It was brutal.

She was being a cheerleader for a very unpopular thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And I want to make sure it's not just that this was like the Willie Horton ad of the 2024. It wasn't just like a Lee Atwater brilliance. It's that it reflected truth that the voters felt. Yeah, I I appreciate that because voters felt as if their country was slipping away. Now, you have the Democrats have a choice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You could say to those people, you're racist, you're Nazis, you're fascist, you're terrible. Or you can listen and be like, why is it that a steel worker in Pittsburgh who's voted Democrat his entire life is voting for Trump despite all of, you know, the stuff that's been thrown at him?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But it's a pattern, and the trans thing is just one of those things. But the second element was also what we saw under Joe Biden was if you came to the southern border from any country and you spoke the magic words, you could go to any city you're choosing, right? CBP1 border app. And all of a sudden, that steel worker in Pittsburgh is like, why am I paying all these taxes? I get it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And I can't afford beer. I can't afford anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And so I guess my question is to you, what are the Democrats going to do about it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
What was it? You know what I'm talking about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yeah, but where did that even go? No more Latinx, everybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, in corporate America, it's everywhere. Okay. All right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You've got to defund these schools if they're doing the pronouns.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I mean, it was... Well, I mean, first of all, it wasn't just the projection of certain narratives, which we could obviously go through. Yeah. But it's when policy started to come forward. And what kind of policy? Hiring practices.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I've been at this for 13 years, and it's been a wild movement, really accelerated once President Trump kind of came on the scene. Right around, I'd say, 2021, we had a goal. Could we move the youth vote 10 points over 10 years?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I mean, it was just called outreach and inclusion. But we saw mass adoption, what we saw. And not only that, we saw pledging of billions of dollars of donations to racial justice from the biggest types of corporations imaginable. Fair point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That's what I'm saying. You had a combustible effect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
What was insulting to a lot of people is number one, where's the money going? Because the top premier BLM charity ended up being a racket, right? With Patrice Cullors, like where'd that hundred million bucks go? So all of a sudden we learned that and all these pledges of corporate dollars were going to this woman that's like hiring her like brother for personal security.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And that like a lot of, and you would even agree like that. That became the poster child for the broader movement. But number two, which I think was most important was that it was, it elevated then this scholarly community that was otherwise fringe, like Robin DiAngelo and other people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And her book, White Fragility, literally the entire premise of her book is that white people need to stop being so fragile about race. You need to sit down and shut up and hear how racist you are. And she was brought on tours to corporations across the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And by the way, just so you understand, this was a phenomenon over months and months, and it didn't quite catch up in time for the 2020 election. I do believe that if you guys would have been a little less insane on crime in the summer of 20, you would have completely clobbered us in November of 20. It was like it was the riots that even made 2020 close. Right, right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But then it was the extension of all of the what we would call woke stuff. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
defund police yeah i mean minneapolis literally had to hold a special vote saying like should we still have a police department yeah that's i mean i mean that's that was lunacy i mean but governor i don't want to by the way i by the way you're talking to someone who's never supported the defense i know but i was explicit but Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So then I asked Governor Newsom about the Prop 16 debate and the public school debate. He was on the side of what's called Prop 16 in 2020, which would have had legal racial discrimination. He's like, oh, I got to go look at my notes. No, no, no, no. You know what it is. You know what it was.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You pushed this deeply unpopular, anti-white, anti-Asian legal racial discrimination that lost at the polls. And again, AB 101 has critical race theory in the schools of California. We also talk about how the Democrats have become defenders of the corrupt establishment, FBI, EPA, critical race theory. But also, you did support Prop 16 in 2020, which would have legalized racial prejudice, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yeah, like, can we move it 10 points over 10 years? Ish, you know, approximate. Because our whole hypothesis was, and we did this alongside President Trump and his great team, was that this demographic is disproportionately to the Democrat side. We believe Democrats were taking them for granted. We think that your side had no message whatsoever and an ideological monopoly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
No, no, no. Prop 16. I taught 960 SAT, so a little humility. Hold on. No, you're the governor of the largest state in the country. No, no, no. I saw your debate against DeSantis. You're good at this stuff. You know what I'm talking about. Prop 16 would have had legalized racial prejudice, which got defeated by 16 points despite all the institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So you're asking me what did wokeism look like when California, when all the institutions, yourself included, with all due respect, embraced this insane ballot measure. Guess what? Even the people of California didn't want it. I mean, a bit racial, racial discrimination.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I found it to be illuminating, though, that despite, I mean, there was really like no opposition. It was like a couple hundred like Asian activists. Honestly, I have to go back to it. But I just want to say, you asked the question, what did wokeism look like? Prop 16 in California that would have had legalized racial discrimination.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm just bringing it home to you because there were hundreds of such ballot referendums, right? Yeah. There was, you know, city council meetings where they said the white people aren't allowed here, right? That's not good. No, it's not good. And so what ends up happening is a broader question of sensible, not racist suburban moms that are like, wait a second, I have an eight-year-old white son.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Are you trying to say he's a racist? Yeah. And it creates a backlash that then bubbles up, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But Governor, with all due respect, that's happening right now in California public schools. And I'm not trying to drill you on it. I'm just being honest. You could say that, but maybe you should convene a special session and say no more race-based teaching against white people in the schools of California. California or Asians. I'm just saying, though, that, like, this is not a conjecture.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It's not a hypothetical. It is embedded into the DNA of the Democrat Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, you have the principles of it. I mean, of course, critical theory is like a PhD level course taught by Derrick Bell and Kimberly Crenshaw. Yeah. But the same way that you have advanced physics and the theories of physics in eighth grade, it's like saying you don't have the elements of it. But for example, I mean, it's very simple.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But at least that explains why, because I'm just trying to find it. We know of over at least 50 schools in California that do things called privilege walks. Do you know what privilege walks are? What are privilege walks? Where they make kids walk ahead based on certain questions, and they try to make a point saying, well, see, the white people are ahead. They must have white privilege.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You've got a lot going on. I know that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We saw some of the fault lines there. And to President Trump's credit, he also harmonized with the strategy by going on podcasting and using TikTok. But yeah, I mean, we did it in four years, not 10, large in part, thanks to you guys.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You know, I can. You missed some.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
EPA. Of course, the Employment Prevention Agency. Oh, OK.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That's what I mean. Look, I mean, look, I mean, so it's not just acronyms that we dislike for the record, but it's what feels like that sometimes. I mean, and now this is the second most viral part of our conversation where Governor Newsom thought he had me bringing up book banning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I should have probably said this in the discussion, but saying that the Bible is pornographic is so insulting to faithful Christians across the country. Governor Newsom thinks like, oh, I can get you on book banning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
This is how every conservative, every Republican should talk about the banning of books, that every single conservative Republican should talk about how the books that very well might be banned in our schools. What are they exactly? This is how you should stand up for it, for decency, for truth and for our children.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I think we can both agree pornography should not be taught to nine-year-olds. Fair point. So that's a book ban.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That was the Moms for Liberty contention. Time out. I agree on Bill O'Reilly. The Moms for Liberty movement that you made a big thing of was just no porn to 10-year-olds. We agree. So those books should be banned. So what we should do right now is every California school that has porn in their library should be kicked out. Does that include the Bible?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, I wouldn't say the Song of Solomon is porn.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But no, I mean, again, the Song of Solomon is rather risque. But what we're talking about in these books is not just the words, it's also the images. And again, your audience can look at the images themselves. It's highly graphic. But again, what I... But it seems a banning binge. I mean, at next level, sort of cancel... Culture. But why do you think moms are doing that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Do you think it's because they want to have mind control or do you think that they have come across incident of incident of highly provocative material?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I mean, you brought up the book bands, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
No, but I... But let me just, you know, kind of complete the point is that it's easy to just call it kind of a book ban, but when you actually have to read some of these books, it will take your breath away of some of this stuff, right? You're like, okay, you know, we're teaching a 10-year-old how to put a condom on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
This is the exercise of politics, though. The exercise of politics is the highest form of community because it blends morality and sociability. So what we do is we have discussion and elections, and we have boards and commissions, right? And we as a people say, okay, no porn for 10-year-olds. And that's politics, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I have heard a lot. I've never heard—that's interesting, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Of images that are very violating to young kids.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Can I just say one other thing? If you want to learn, Governor, and I'm happy that there is a movement of moms that's growing where they feel as if our kids are being hypersexualized. And I agree with them that they are being that they have to hear topics. Social media. Well, both in the social media and in particular.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And then Governor Newsom talks all about this assembly bill about the most radical elements in our country when it comes to parental notification and kids well-being and child children's well-being. You signed a law where school districts can't even tell parents if their kids are trans. That's true.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And it wasn't just trans. They can't get fired for not doing that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
That's a charitable reading. It's not charitable. It's actual. The freedom not to... Let me tell you the other way to say this, that a teacher, of course, should be fired if you don't notify a parent of what's happening to their kid. Of course they should be terminated for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
said something because they're talking about two different things what you're but there of course should be a penalty measure whether it be termination or whatever if a teacher withholds information from a parent because what you're saying is that there's no way to hold them accountable you're saying you're accountable to what though accountable to two kids talking about the fact that this is a talking about subject matter all of a sudden now we have to have teachers policing i think speech or conversation you would even agree governor that is an over extreme example what we're talking about nobody's but the
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
extreme example. This was a solution. What we're talking about is if, which happens a lot, unfortunately, is if a young girl says that, hey, I want to transition and the teacher accommodates and affirms it and the parent doesn't even know. I have met parents like that. I heard Trump and then they come back and they're like, there's
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I will say, and we don't have to, you know, we don't have to wrestle too much on this topic, but you guys will lose on these topics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Your self-awareness is helpful to know because it is deeply unpopular. And I think that is an ascendant political force that is not going away.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Of course I do. But you're not running for office. I'm not going to run for president as a moderate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm not running for anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm not running for anything. You're going to run against AOC? I'm running for head of most popular TikToker. But no, I'm not running for anything. So then Governor Newsom asked me about running for office. I'm not running for office. Do you guys think I should run for office? You guys should put in the comments of whether or not you guys think I should run for office.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I think I'm more effective doing what I'm doing here, reaching millions of people, starting a mass movement, running Turning Point USA. So go in the comments and let me know what you think. You are a private student loan debt borrower. Listen carefully. Great patriots here. Private student loan debt in the U.S. totals about $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yeah, I've always been conservative, obviously grown in that over the last, you know, 10 ish years was more libertarian, I'd say, in the first couple of years as to be expected as I got married and have kids become more conservative.

That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com. By the way, should we ban TikTok? No, we should not. I used to say that. And then I started this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Because it's politically expedient or Trump told you to? Well, no, definitely not Trump. I sent out a tweet and I'm perfectly honest about this. I think you'd respect this is that I was so mad at them because they would ban me all the time. And I sent out a tweet saying like, hey, if you guys are really for free speech as a creator, like, let's see it. Get a call from TikTok a couple hours later.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We're going to show you that we're for free speech. We're going to show you the power of the platform.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And I saw real changes where our campus interactions went from being banned to now well over two and a half billion views on TikTok. And so I wouldn't say expedient, I'd say impact. And also they now have changed some of their speech codes. They've changed some of their Hey, I'm not for your son. Your son finds my content somehow. Look, I use TikTok.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I just love this conversion. It's a hell of a conversion. Hey, I'm open about it. I appreciate it. And then French laundry comes up. There's a major platform difference between Democrats and Republicans. Long-form media versus legacy media. Politics is now culture, and we dominate the new media landscape. I do not think Democrats are able to exist in a long-form podcasting environment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
They can't defend their ideas. As soon as you turn off the teleprompter, they freak out. We are ascendant. Those of us that believe in America, believe in freedom, believe in liberty, believe in borders. We want a strong country. We want men to be men and women to be women.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But, no, look, just one of the things we saw in the last couple of years that the Democrats completely ignored, and your side was basically not acknowledging it was happening, was the crisis that young people were experiencing. That, I mean, just one, it's the first time in America's history that a 30-year-old is going to have it worse off than their parents.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We are the dominant political force because we can defend our ideas without someone whispering in our ear, giving us prepared notes. Governor Newsom seemed a little uncomfortable throughout this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I want you to speak out against that one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
At the French Laundry, of course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Come on, man. Come on. In and out burger.

But the population went up last year. The population went up last year because of the illegal border. We'll talk about that later. I got a whole thing.

By the way, 394 National Guard that I put down at the border six years ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I've been working on this. Anyway, you're getting somewhere complimentary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Going back to... You're talking about your whining and dying at French Laundry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I get such a kick out of this whole shtick. I got to be honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It's a breakdown of the social compact. They are the most alcohol-addicted, most drug-addicted, most suicidal, most depressed, most medicated generation in history. And the message that was largely being fed to a lot of young people was lower your expectations. You're not going to have the same American dream that your parents would have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, I mean, I'm part of it and credit to you for doing long form podcasting because long form podcasting does penetrate different audiences. Right. And our show does very well. But part of the problem of the Democrat Party that for the health of the country would be great to change is that Democrats cannot survive in long form podcasting environments. Why? It's too unscripted.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It's too masculine, honestly. And the Democrat Party's become too feminine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
To go into the wilderness with no rules and duel it out and see who's better or who's stronger. No, seriously. Democrats can't. We don't do it. You're right. For whatever reason, don't do it. You can laugh, but who in the Democrat Party? We're not. You're right. We'll go, I mean, maybe Bernie Sanders, but he only worked like an hour and a half. RFK when he was a Democrat. Bobby, who's now HHS.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But there's something to be said that if you want to earn the respect of forgotten America, you have to show them that you can intellectually joust with no script, no hard breaks, no producers in the ears, no teleprompters. That's where new media is going. Now, I will only challenge one thing you say. I am reaching new audiences. I'm not talking to my my bubble because our content is so appealing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It goes in a decentralized way. And it's not just political.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But like, again, our conversation here is going to go far and wide. Right. A lot of people are going to see a lot of people are going to consume it because it's also politics. Entertainment have. begun to overlap, right? And the old adage is, well, politics is downstream from culture. I think politics and culture are indecipherable from one another now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Donald Trump became a cultural phenomenon, right? You go in to, you know, inner city Compton, you'll see guys with Trump shirts with, you know, the hand up, you know, fight, fight, fight. So what Democrats are doing is you're still playing in a very old, hyper sanitized media environment. And my advice is you got to go where it's unpredictable, where it's treacherous, where it's dangerous.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Now, I would make a more provocative argument that you wouldn't necessarily resonate with, which is that that you guys have not you guys have not built the intellectual muscle over 30 years because you all agree with each other all the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Trump has completely collapsed the conservative movement. I would push back a little bit. I would disagree. We have a robust discussion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
They're holding him to account. That's an important but separate issue. I just want to finish the point and we could talk about Congress, which is that in the Republican Party, we have immense and vocal and public spats all the time. I think you would agree. We fight about foreign policy. Look at Ukraine, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We're talking about primary challenging some of these senators that were meeting Zelensky last week. The Democrat Party would never do that. Now, I think that is a symptom of an underlying thing. We're constantly trying to find the approximation of what truth is. We're trying to use dialogue towards, hey, who's right? What do you believe? Why do you believe it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And we saw this as an opportunity, especially with young men. And again, this got ridiculed a lot by the press that, oh, you know, they're creating this manosphere thing. Look, they're half of the population and necessary for any society and civilization to succeed, which is to have both strong men and strong women. Yeah. And we went about that in a very unique and creative way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And it's by no coincidence that out of the long-form podcasting genres, the top ten, eight of them are conservative or center-right. Rogan, Megyn Kelly, Theo Vaughn, the Paul Brothers, our program, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
There's a singular one on the left, which is Pod Save America, which is just like a bunch of Obama bros agreeing with each other for 90 minutes and saying that we're not very smart.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It's medium. But what so what? I mean, everything Democrats do and everything how Democrats operate is from the mindset of oppressor versus oppressed. not what is fair or just. You see, we as conservatives talk about what is right or wrong, not just who the biggest victim is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Every way the Democrats look at issues, and you can see Gavin Newsom has been programmed to believe this throughout his life, is to look at where is the victim in the situation. We look at what is moral or immoral, right or wrong, fair or unfair, just or unjust. We then talk about how I do not drink. He seemed very surprised by this, considering he owns a very nice vineyard in Napa Valley.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So you can see I kind of slipped that in there. He asks what Democrats I like. I want you to guess before you watch this what how I answer what Democrats I actually like. But there is this unhealthy purification process. that Democrats go through where they kick any nonbelievers out of their ranks. Democrats are pushing people out of their own party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And we are far more ideologically healthy and diverse than the Democrat Party. You see, for us and in our party, we believe the best ideas win. Democrats believe the most oppressed wins. And what I should have probably brought up, and looking back, hindsight, again, I thought I did pretty well, but looking back...
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I should have said, Governor, you guys had to nominate Kamala Harris under these rules. You could not jump over Kamala Harris because she was a black woman. Since she was a black woman, you were not able to jump over her. Otherwise, they could have got to a better candidate. And deep down, I think Gavin Newsom knows that he has no place in the Democrat Party as a white man.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Deep down, they hate him. His whole party is configured against him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, I think that it's two things. Number one, your upbringing in college campuses does not foster debate like it used to. It just doesn't. It's that it's about silencing the critic and the elevation of the victim. Right. So you do not have the practice of robust having to defend your position. It's very monolithic. It's very centralized. It's very top-down. It's quasi-authoritarian.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And then secondly, I would just say that the philosophy on the worldview, as I mentioned earlier, that you guys have adopted, is that thou which is oppressed will get the most points. You guys don't have thou that has the best idea wins. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And because of that, you guys have an elevation of like, hey, we're going to eventually we're just going to have a small subset of a minoritarian hectoring hall monitor assistant principal vibe of people telling you that you're not allowed to say these words and you can't say that. And we call that political correctness, which in and of itself is. hyper-authoritarian.

And again, the president became a cultural phenomenon where no matter what you threw at this guy, he rose above it. And you would even have to give him credit. I mean, 700 years in federal prison.

So if you seek to understand why young men are rebelling, it's like, no, I'm not going to go along with this anymore. Like maybe I'm going to say, for an example, maybe I'm going to send out a stupid tweet when I'm 17 years old. When I'm 26, I shouldn't have to get fired because of that, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I just wanted to be more successful. I love that. What were you drinking? Napa Valley wine. Oh, Jesus Christ. Here we go. Right?
The Charlie Kirk Show

No, but no, I don't drink. But yeah, I mean, look, but first of all, we have the agency to boycott whatever we want, but understand.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Hold on, it's something completely different. First of all, cancel culture is someone in power using their power to cancel somebody that doesn't have power. That's cancel culture. Time out. Hold on. But Bud Light was people that don't have a lot of power, consumers using their agency to say, no, powerful corporation, I'm not going to voluntarily associate with you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You know, states try to kick him off the ballot. I know you spoke out against it, but California did have a faction that tried to kick him off the ballot. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But cancel culture has always been the incumbent person with power, a governor, a principal, a boss, a CEO, a corporate board going against the weaker. What we did with Bud Light was just a bunch of decentralized folks doing a good old fashioned boycott. Completely different.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But the culmination of cancel culture is somebody who has a power position wrongly canceling.

I used to have respect for Bernie on his anti-war stance, and now he's a complete neocon. I was going to ask you about Bernie. He's a complete neocon now, so he's not there. Democrats I respect. Bobby Kennedy I respect. Tulsi Gabbard. Why are you laughing? Why are you smiling? Because they're on our team now because you guys kicked out your best people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Despite all of that, of course, being shot, and that was kind of the crescendo of all of it, he kind of became this figure of an American comeback story. So he personified what a lot of young people, especially young men, wanted back in their politics, which was an ascendant rebel attitude against these institutions that have failed them so miserably.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
This is a great point, though, Governor, is that Bobby Kennedy was a heterodox opinion on a thing that a lot of people were concerned about. Get him! out. He's an anti-vaxxer. Tulsi Gabbard, who is anti-war, get her out. She's a Russian agent.

You guys see how you have an unhealthy purification process where eventually you're left with just a 31% approval rating and a bunch of people that are talking to each other. And meanwhile, we're the ones that have Democrats in our cabinet winning the electoral majority vote because there needs to be said we're
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
If Democrats are serious about being a majority party ever again, when somebody has a disagreement, for example, if there's a pro-life Democrat, is there a place for a pro-life Democrat in the Democrat Party? I mean, there should be. Okay. On principle, there should be. Absolutely.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
God bless. I agree. Not every party or Democrat official would say that, right? And so certain states have different opinions on that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Trust me, I know. That I know. But the issue, though, is that that is a one-stop purity test. We have pro-choice Republicans. Susan Collins is a pro-choice Republican.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yeah, he's more pro-choice than I am, for sure. But what I'm saying, though, is what you see in the Republican Party is the best, in my opinion, culmination of modern politics and doesn't get appreciated. Look at that ideological diversity. We have people that, you know, they want to go to war with every country that says something bad against us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And then we have people that are far more dovish, you know, like Rand Paul. But that is a better, more, dare I say, diverse picture. You could say diversity is our strength.

The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I only gave him my B or C advice. I asked him if he's working with ICE. This is just so fraudulent, by the way. I probably should have called this out even more. It's just so nonsensical. He's not doing anything on the southern border. He's not assisting with detainers. There were 7,000 people in California that had ICE detainers on them that were not touched at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Also talking about the quality of life. Everyone here in this audience, your quality of life has slipped dramatically in recent years. Thanks to big government Democrats, just like Gavin Newsom. Thanks to the one party rule of states like California. California has the highest housing prices, the most homelessness. The second highest housing price is the highest cost of living.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And what are they doing about it? Blaming Republicans, the quality of life has slipped dramatically in the great state of California. And Gavin Newsom is solely responsible for the downfall of San Francisco and the downfall of California.

We would be like conservative movement MAGA. But yes, I have Turning Point USA, Turning Point Action, Charlie Kirk Show. But when I'm saying we, I mean more specifically kind of those of us that saw this political moment three or four years ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm not saying I don't I don't have that kind of pride. I'm not saying I'm saying right now we are the ascendant worldview. We could screw this up easily. You have to have the humility to say that. But like as of the recording of this podcast, we have a majority approval rating on the electoral. I mean, all that stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But we could screw it up, and you guys could adjust or adapt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It's conceivable that can happen. I don't say that's impossible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm not going to give you my best advice. I'll give you like the B or C level.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
All right, because the secret stuff I'm not sharing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Oh, it's all of it. I could design your presidential run in a way where you would win. I'm not talking about a president. We're not talking about a presidential run. This is not about that. No, no, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
First of all, it's not new to have someone from California run for the presidency. We just beat someone from California presidency. California is... California is to politics, to the Democrat Party, as Florida is to our party. You guys have the former Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, right? You have a lot of the ascendant political voices come out of the state. So it's not derangement syndrome.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
No, it's knowing your enemy and looking at the horizon and understanding what's coming. But anyway, if I were to give you or somebody advice, I'll give you the B and C level stuff, which is very simple. You have to go to war with your own party on three major things. You got to say, we are not going to do this illegal immigration thing anymore, which includes, like, are you going to work with ICE?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Explain the sanctuary state thing then. What is the difference?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Sanctuary policy was never— I would say if you break into the country illegally, an 8 U.S.C. 1325 is breaking a federal law, right? I get it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But it is a federal law. I get it. By the way, if you're serious about moderating the party, 8 U.S.C. 1325, vast majority of Americans— Let me just go through. Vast majority of Americans want mass deportations. It's just the thing. Until they don't. Well, okay. That's my humble opinion. Until they don't. Okay. Someone has been here 10 years paying taxes. I don't buy it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But at the moment, you're right. You might be right. The numbers bear it out. We'll see. Number two, we mentioned the trans stuff. It's an affront to all of our senses. It's out of control.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But Charlie Kirk's views are separate than the political advice I'm getting. But if you'd like me to, we could do a whole Charlie Kirk Ask Me Anything, and you could show up to Cal State Northridge on Thursday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
you want it it's fine i just don't think that's the best use of our time but on the political advice is that americans increasingly believe that their good-heartedness and charitable nature towards the lgbt issue has on overblown especially with youth sports youth curriculum and the chemical castration of our kids when it comes to this medical therapy and you seem that you want to really i encourage you governor to learn about some of the butchery under the guise of health care that is happening under chemical castration in this state and in other states we don't spend a lot of time on that but the american people are overwhelmingly against it
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
They're overwhelming against it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Youth should be off limits. I think that's the political direction things are going. You might be right on deportations. I know I'm right on this. I know that this issue is picking up steam. There is no good counter to it. The cast report, the United Kingdom cast report, the NHS came out and said there's no good reason to ever operate surgically on a young person. Puberty is not the problem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Puberty is the solution. I'm not an expert. in this, but I appreciate your broader... But I'm saying politically, it's a turbocharged issue that is kicking the tail of Democrats. The third one, though, is quality of life. Is quality of life... I agree with you on this one, especially.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yes, but... Issues of just quality of life... You know where I'm going with this. Why is it you were able to clean it up for Xi Jinping, but you can't clean it up... Oh, that was you guys. That was the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life. By the way, you guys weaponized that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I mean, like the biography has been written about a million times, but I mean, didn't didn't go to college, wanted to go to West Point, didn't get in. I'm an entrepreneur. Yeah. Love it. Started this organization and it became far more successful than I ever could have realized.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
In this case, weaponized. It was ridiculous. Give me a break. Governor, with all due respect, I saw a beautiful picture of San Francisco that looked like Singapore. And then Xi Jinping leaves and The Walking Dead comes back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm not the mayor of San Francisco. You were the mayor, but I just want to understand. Why is it that we have to clean it up? But you have to admit, it's emblematic of something that if enough important people show up, it can get clean. So why not make it clean all the time?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I hope the new mayor can do that, right? He seems to be more moderate than the other. Great progress is being made.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It went up 18% across the country. I'm not here defending every red state. But I'm making the point. This is hardly unique to California. I'm sure there's a lot of governors and mayors. Quality of life is huge, right? And the housing crisis, of course, came up. What are we going to do to help? Young people buy more homes. Do we actually agree on something?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
This actually was the few moments where we agreed on something. Gavin Newsom and I find common ground. And then, like, look, the number one thing, which I know you're going to agree with, and I'm sure you'll have a super slick response, right, that's about half true, which is the cost of housing. Average home in California, $850,000.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But that was interesting to me. I think that is, but again, that's not a majority of house purchasing. About one in four houses are bought by private equity. Would you agree to say that BlackRock should not be able to own homes in California?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You should propose a bill in the California statehouse.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
A $10 trillion fund shouldn't be able to come in and buy homes. But it's not just BlackRock specifically. It's the idea of mass... Mass asset managers that have $50 billion asset under management are now competing against our college grad from Cal State Fullerton.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And the the kind of as we started to grow the organization, I recognize that there was a ideological imbalance on a lot of these college campuses. And we wanted to go about trying to offer a counterpoint. of conservative, you know, pro-freedom, pro-liberty, you know, America first ideals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Oh, I carried interest. I think it's a huge problem. And by the way, you know, President Trump has proposed in his tax bill. He proposes it all the time. But I mean, Joe Biden didn't get rid of carried interest. That is the holy grail of private equity. You know that. I mean, I get it. But let's go back to how you're going to have a revolt in Palo Alto if you get rid of carried interest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
They're going to light torches and run to Sacramento.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We agree on the problem, but help me understand this. You guys control the House, the Senate with super majorities. You control everything. Why can't you fix it? You said you were going to build 3.5 million homes. You're building like 111,000 a year.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You guys are still outpacing every other state. But hold on, hold on.

The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I don't know about that, but yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I'm very confident in that in California. Yeah, but you also might see an increase in housing prices, of course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Yeah, it's just the biggest issue. It's been our biggest problem. California and Hawaii have the two highest housing prices in the country. Hawaii has an obvious excuse. They don't have so much land. You guys don't have a lack of land.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I get it. You can't take credit for all the assets. You know, number one AI, number one nanotechnology.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But I'm saying you have to balance both the credit and the blame. I get it. No, I appreciate it. But quality of life, right? 100% of it. So when I talk to a college kid, one of the reasons they saw Trump as a vessel for a better life is that under President Trump, those first four years, we saw a material increase in their livelihood, wages, easier to buy a home, four years. Four years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Just the facts are the average wage to be able to own a home in L.A., to be able to own a home,
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It used to be $75,000 a year. Now it's $145,000 a year. I mean, what it does, and this is, again, it's creating this kind of belief system of Russian serfs of a generation that will never have the material American dream that their parents once enjoyed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And then finally, Gavin Newsom's meeting with Trump. Again, the fact that he would kind of still cover with Joe Biden just goes to show you should not trust anything this guy says. It's like, oh, you know, Biden had great mental competency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You've got to admit, there's something magical about that guy. Joe Biden couldn't do five minutes with you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, I mean, both. I mean, you have a sitting population of about 20 million kids that are there for four years. There's that. And also, again, you had nowhere to go but up. I mean, when we started in 2012, 75% of kids on college campuses would vote for Democrats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
You went around the country being like, he's I'll take him at a hundred.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But I just say, Governor, just on that one topic, we saw with our own eyes for three years and the media told us, no, no, he's perfectly fine. Yeah. And then we saw the debate. And look, it makes us not trust our leaders when we say everyone is perfectly fine. The emperor is fine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
No, I see that more sharp acuity. You tell me. You sat with him in the Oval Office for 90 minutes. The guy has a memory of an elephant.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It depends if there's something I want to talk to him about. But I mean, he's just a machine. He'll take every call. You got to give him credit for that. Isn't it amazing? Right? Every call thing's big, right? It's amazing. And he'll listen to every idea. He'll joust it out. He'll talk about it. He always goes back to what did I promise the voters? What was the last idea you gave him?
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Here's my observation. Actually, it was interesting. I said, I don't think Canada should be the 51st state. We already have California, and we have enough libs in our country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Thou shall not take the Lord's name in vain.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
So in closing, what are my thoughts? I think Gavin Newsom wants to run to the middle. Should we trust him? No, I don't think it's legitimate. I don't think it's authentic. I will say their team told us they would not edit a piece of footage, and they didn't, and they deserve credit for that. In a world where a lot of people will say one thing and do another, they were honest brokers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
But I don't think that Gavin Newsom is actually having a metamorphosis on any issue. I don't think Gavin Newsom has any closely held issues. I think he cares about what will keep him in power and get him closer to the presidency. So hope you guys enjoyed my conversation with Gavin Newsom. There is now a Democrat civil war underway, large in part thanks to our conversation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Now, fast forward to today, this last election cycle, Democrats lost the youth vote in Michigan, nearly lost it in Wisconsin, nearly lost it in Arizona. So our goal was, hey, let's move at 10 points. We moved at 13 points. And this is important for your audience to know and for Democrats to reckon with, of which I see no signs that Democrats care at all that they're losing the next generation.
The Charlie Kirk Show

It was good to be able to challenge one of the leaders of the Democrat Party on who they are and why they have failed the American people and also to continue to remind them they are losing young people.

We're drawing record crowds. Our ranks are expanding. The most support that President Trump has is voters under 30. 60% of voters under 30 support President Trump. That's according to Rasmussen. You might say that's a little rich. It might be, but it's directionally true. And one of the main reasons that this has all been happening...
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
is that baby boomers have actually seen their wealth increased the last four years. They don't buy into this whole idea that our institutions are broken or that they're in need of massive bottom up revolutionary change. And we see that actually Kamala Harris did three points better with baby boomers than she did in 2020.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And the number one story that, you know, James Carville, who everyone takes seriously for some reason, should have been saying is like all Kamala Harris had to do was just do the same with younger voters that Joe Biden did in 2020. And she would be president right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
It was 13 points better. Again, this is kind of a combination of exit polling. So it's really, it's a difficult science to pinpoint.

No, it was even more scrappy. I would literally show up to UW-Madison with a card table and a big cardboard sign saying, debate me. You know, like, here's some provocative statement. So you're 20-something years old. And I wouldn't even film it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I hope it's not the other. But no, I mean, I guess it would just be, I mean, at the most charitable reading, it could be confidence. It also would just be that I wanted to try and challenge the predominant view. I always loved debate and disagreement. I love the kind of spar. And, yeah, I also find it to be exciting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And I wanted to try to, you know, figure out where my idea is actually that good and to kind of draw. Stress test. Yeah, exactly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I mean, less about debate. I mean, debating is a practice that can really only be refined with lots of routine and reps and repetition. Just more about studying the great books, philosophy, all those things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I don't even know. I took the ACT. You took the ACT, which proves two things, how young you are. Okay, so the conversation continued about college. I wrote an entire book called The College Scam, and I should have emphasized even more about how the UC system, which Governor Newsom oversees, is a complete failure. Didn't quite have time to do that, but looking back, hindsight is 20-20.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I should have interjected and talked about how broken the UC system is, how much indoctrination is happening in the UC system. Also, Lómez, who came on our program, great guy, educated me about AB 101, about how kids are required to learn DEI and critical race theory in California schools. I did a lot of research and prep in anticipation for this conversation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I was unaware of that, so I probably should have interjected that. College tuition has skyrocketed dramatically, and the Democrats and Gavin Newsom have done nothing to lower the cost of college, nothing to increase career preparedness. In fact, more and more kids are not even learning basic American history, basic civics, or basic world history.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We also talk a little bit more in this segment about my political history and some of my political leanings. Continues. You grew up in Illinois, right? I grew up in Illinois, which Midwest was traditionally more of an ACT.

Is that actually still the majority of the country does not have a college degree. And if I may, you know, bluntly critique the Democrat Party, you guys have become so college credentialed and educated that you guys snobbishly look on the muscular class of this country, the people that kept things afloat and running during COVID. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And yeah, I mean, the majority of the country didn't go to Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Caltech or Cal Berkeley. Right. Thank you. And the Republican Party has become far more representative of them, large in part thanks to Trump. But yeah. And look, I say it with some pride also because as an entrepreneur, I tried to build something. Right. Not just seek a credential.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Oh, yeah. Open jobs that don't require college.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Well, your voters. your voters have become nearly, I mean, the higher you go up the education ladder, the higher the correlation it is that you vote for the Democrat Party. It's almost a one-to-one with PhD. It's like 75% for master's degrees, and it's 65% for four-year college.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
The sloppy analysis is like, oh, they're smarter, therefore they must be Democrats. And I think that's silly and insane. And insulting. I totally agree. The deeper and more profound analysis is that a lot of ideological bubbles that exist on these college campuses, they are homogeneous, not heterodox when it comes to what ideas are expressed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
And then secondly, the value system that you leave on college campuses is high trust of institutions. So the biggest divide in America is not right versus left. It's whether or not you generally trust institutions or you don't trust institutions. And this has been largely inverted the last 20 years. So back in the early 2000s, Democrats were low trust of institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
Iraq War, anti-Bush, anti-NSA, anti-Patriot Act. And that's when you guys had a lot of activist spark and energy. That has been completely inverted. So the right is now low trust of institutions where the left is high trust of institutions. We're the ones that challenged the COVID vaccine. We're the ones that think that public health authorities might have lied to us during COVID. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
We're the ones that don't necessarily believe the government when it says that we should keep on sending money to Ukraine. Again, that's a general rule. There are some exceptions to that. But when you go to college, you are trained to trust the experts, trust the scientists, trust the people that are leaders of authority.

And the Democrat Party is largely the gatekeepers of that kind of ideological and intellectual regime. It's interesting.

My Full Conversation With Gavin Newsom, Annotated
I think it's going to happen no matter what. I mean, in 10 years, artificial intelligence is going to change everything. And I don't know what these four-year degrees are actually doing to prepare these kids for that. But as far as like I'm not I mean, my advocating for the end of the pursuit pursuit of learning, of course not.

You are way more Marxist than I thought. So this is where we really disagree. That's okay. We're going to have totally different worldviews on this. And you actually articulated it really well. But on the left-wing Marxist socialist side, they believe human nature is generally good. And that it's capitalism in our system that has infected our... Decision-making. Fair? Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Like a Rousseau-esque take. Yes. Okay. So I have a much more, let's just say, Hobbesian view of human nature, which I believe – because it's Christian in nature. I believe human beings, as it says in the book of Genesis and repeated, is that the heart of man is flawed from beginning, that it's not taught by capitalism. It's not any sort of system. And let me try to prove it to you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I don't know how convincing I'll be. In even the most communist totalitarian government like China – or in Russia where they got rid of all private property, people still did bad stuff. They still stole. They still lied. They still cheated. They still committed adultery. So we can get rid of all the private property. People will still do bad stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Secondly, I encourage you to look less at studies, and maybe one day you'll be a father and you'll see it yourself. I have a two and a half year old daughter. She does stuff that was never taught. It's like instinctive. She like turns my wife and I against each other. She's like she's a saint. You know what I mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
And you realize like these are, you know, treacherous little creatures that need to be taught goodness and told no because they're not the center of the world. We let me say differently. We as Christians generally believe that people are generally not so good. Marxists will believe that people are generally good. And from there come our two different worldviews.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Because therefore, if you think people are naturally good, then you must find something to blame for all the problems, which is capitalism, racism, misogyny, Western civilization. We say, hey, all the problems start with the mirror. We think the man in the mirror is the start of your problem. So therefore, again, that's not a criticism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Okay, no. I mean, again, a baby in the womb.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
We would say the problem is you need to do less marching in the streets to try to end climate change and more about getting yourself in shape, waking up earlier, stop doing drugs, stop doing alcohol, and becoming a better person. Again, that's not a criticism of your worldview. I just want to make sure people understand the difference. Do you think humanity lacks an innate sense of care for others?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yes. Of course, but I think it is built into us. I don't think – so this is where communism comes from. Marx believed we were inherently social creatures and that we inherently were far more willing to be in a commune than not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
We have to just get rid of all of these problems, get rid of the purchasing, get rid of the capitalism, get rid of the Amazon, and then we'll all live in this kind of romantic Rousseauian ideal. We think that's rubbish as Westerners, as Christians. Right. And the best example is, and I want your thoughts on this, is prison.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
If it was true, once you get rid of all private property, you get rid of all work, why is it that violence still happens in jails? In fact, they become more violent. They become more treacherous in jail. All they do is they have time. They don't own anything. They don't trade anything. They do it on the black market.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
And you might say it's because they were flawed from the beginning in a capitalist system. But I think it's an important distinction. And it really is the tension point between the right and the left and the West right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I'm very much in favor. And so killing somebody is... Again, that is justice because they did something that then warrants the reciprocity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
They need and want for nothing. They have three meals a day. They get books. They get Wi-Fi. They get phones. So it sounds like socialism, right? They're in a prison. They have everything that they need to survive.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Sort of, I mean, yeah, I guess. I mean, you get time outside. Actually, you know what's actually interesting? Do you know that prisoners spend more time outside than an average teenager in America? Did you guys know that? It's a true story. Just more kids stare at their screens. I believe that people are naturally not so good. You believe people that are good. And then I thank you for your time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Okay, yes, sir. We're running out of time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Sorry. Try your best.

With XX chromosomes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I said an adult human female with XX chromosomes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Not necessarily because a girl can have XX chromosomes. That doesn't make her yet a woman. So that's why I said an adult human female with XX chromosomes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I do to a certain extent. But if you take a life, I think your life should be taken. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I have to look into that situation, but if they're XY chromosome, every one of their chromosomes are coded as male.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Well, I guess the question is, can they impregnate themselves? Yes, they can. They can impregnate themselves?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I can show you. Wait, hold on. No, did you hear what I said?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I don't think you heard my question. Yes, what's your question? I said, can they impregnate themselves?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Okay, got it. So, no, I'm not familiar with that syndrome, so I'll have to look into it. Yeah, so I was wondering... You said it's Swyger syndrome?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Generally. I think there's far more profundity to that statement than people realize. But I appeal more to the Christ standard, beyond an eye to an eye, turn your cheek to the other. But I do believe, I think there's a lot more to the Old Testament teaching of an eye for an eye than people realize. Can I tell you what it is? So you think of an eye for eye just as revenge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Like one in a thousand, one in a million, one in ten million?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
So there's 330 people with this in the country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
But my question is— That is quite the exception case. So it's an exception, but my question is— But you have a rule, and that's what we talk about. Right. And you have exceptions. Yeah. So the rule is the rule.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
No, it's not. Again, I have to look into this. I don't even – I'm going to take your word for it. Yeah, yeah, for sure. So I have to study it, look at it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Okay. So the Swire syndrome, I will look at it, and it will have to fall under one of the categories of the binary, period. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I will look more into it, into the literature, and if we ever cross paths again, I'll give you a more crisp answer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Have a good day. Yep. Thank you. Thank you for bringing something up I didn't know. Think about it. Every dollar you spend is either supporting your values or working against them. In today's economy, where you spend your money matters. That's how we take back our country. Patriot Mobile is leading the way to be America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I don't know how that would be a conflict of interest to running an electric car vehicle company or.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
But those preexisted Trump, though, right? Yeah. So those government contracts expanded during Biden. Now, you would have an argument if all of a sudden if Elon Musk gets a new contract under Trump. I think that's a great argument. We're seeing none of that. In fact, we're seeing Elon go after government agencies that he's getting contracts from. He's cutting stuff that he gets money from.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
You might disagree, but I would say there's been a lot of lawfare in the last couple years and erroneous investigations into people. So I don't think that there's a lot to that. But it's interesting. There's a lot of precedent for this. FDR had... Titans of his time come into the White House, help during for war production. We saw this under Woodrow Wilson.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
What Elon Musk is doing is incredibly admirable. This is a guy that could literally just be vacationing all day long, just enjoying his money worth $400 billion. He's out there saving you guys money to make sure that you have a future and fighting for taxpayers. And he's doing a great job. He's done a phenomenal job. And by the way, it's not about money for him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
If this was about money for him, he doesn't own any homes. All he owns is jets. Money is just like a numerical abstraction for him. It's about, he literally sleeps on the couch, you're right, in the Eisenhower Executive Office building. He's obsessed with a particular task. He swore an oath that he was going to try to revive this country under any means possible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
What it did is it showed that even if you're rich, even if you're poor, that no person's eye is worth another person's eye. It's a statement of human equality, meaning that even if you're rich, you don't get to take two eyes from somebody, meaning that you don't get to go beyond the limits of what is taken to you. Does that make sense? Yes, it does, and I agree.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
And he's doing a better job at it than almost any politician in the modern era, thanks to President Trump as well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
But again, there's a lot of people that are unelected within our government. I mean, Joe Biden had 5,000 unelected people in his government. But you know what? This is a very important distinction, though, is that Elon Musk is not some shadow character that we were not aware of when we went and voted for Donald Trump. Elon Musk was campaigning with Donald Trump for 30 days straight.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Elon Musk was a top surrogate for Donald Trump. The American people and voters knew that if they voted for Trump, they were going to get Doge. Doge was a thing that was presented back in August, right? And so the American people voted understanding that with Donald Trump comes an element of Elon Musk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
You would have a good argument, in my opinion, if Elon was totally secret and then just popped up in January like, ooh, actually, I'm in charge. But no, this was the most transparent agenda team ever presented. And so, yes, technically you're right. He is unelected. But the essence of him being involved was 100% notified and decided by the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
So that's an interesting question. What would you have someone like Elon Musk do? He's worth $400 billion. Electric car magnate, Starlink, SpaceX, boring company, Neuralink. He could do one of three things. Do nothing and enjoy his money and be a fat cat. He can go become a George Soros type and spend all the money against the country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
or he can be a patriot and get involved and try to save the country. We're never going to get rid of rich people, regardless of what all the Marxists say. We're always going to have elites. We should use Elon Musk as an example of how elites should act, that sacrifice and fight for other people. Does that make sense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Because the other way, okay, if he was just sitting on his yacht in Venice, we'd hate him too. Oh, he's doing nothing. No, he's actually got skin in the game. He's fighting every day. And you know what? D.C. is so broken. It's so inefficient. It's so bloated. It's so outrageous. God bless him for going out there and trying to bring value back to the U.S. taxpayer. Thank you very much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I appreciate it. We'll do one or two more, right? Four what? Yeah, here. Can I ask?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
What about, like, solar, hydroelectric? We heavily subsidize solar, which, by the way, goes against the previous point, just to be clear. Elon Musk has made a ton of money on the electric vehicle mandate, of which he's helping get rid of the electric vehicle mandate that made him super rich. So I just want you all to understand.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
No, I mean, if solar is going to be the future, it has to stand on its own. No government subsidies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yes, you can. Thank you. All right, here we go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yes, however, there's a teaching in the book of Leviticus, in Leviticus 19, that says that in the administration of justice...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Couple more. How's it going, Charlie? My name is also Charlie, and I'm a huge fan. I opened my own Turning Point chapter in Trinity a couple weeks ago, or a month ago. I'm only a junior in high school, and I actually skipped school to come talk to you today.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Um, so I just recently did a huge project on cryptocurrency and I know that Trump plans on like regulating it and maybe like he wants to make it the, like the crypto, the U S the crypto capital of the world. So my question is how is him doing that? Won't that stifle innovation with it, with crypto fully regulating it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
No. So what he wants to do, we have to figure something out with crypto. So it, we have to figure out what it actually is. So is it an asset or is it a currency? And so definition is both.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Can it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yes. But there needs to be a third category. Right. That is created. And that third category, you can call whatever it wants, because the problem is, if it's a currency, then it's regulated completely differently by the federal government. If it's an app in order for something, it's not the word asset. It's it's it's something that it is. It is a something of value with an issuer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Here's the problem with Bitcoin. There is no issuer. There is no legal tender that it comes from. It's not a security. Thank you. Yes, exactly right. Thank you. Security and currency. So a security would be that I buy $10 of stock in Amazon, given to you by Amazon. Bitcoin, there's no issuer. It's anonymously chartered. Therefore, it's really kind of mysteriously valuable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
you shall never favor the rich or the poor, but you should basically have blind justice, if that makes sense, where justice in itself is what to every person is due based on what you did, not based on who you are, where you came from, where your father is, how much wealth you have. All right. Thank you for your time. Thank you. Appreciate it. Yes. Disagreements, guys, work your way to the front.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
But if it goes in the currency side, then it's directly competing with the U.S. dollar, and it goes under all sorts of different types of regulations. So you need to probably create a third category. And it's good for everybody. Now, I'm excited about the kind of meme crypto economy. I'm not like an over economically regulating person.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
But if we don't get a handle on like the meme coin crypto world, it's either rug pull stuff. A lot of people are going to lose a lot of money and they already have. And I'm telling you, it's going to give all crypto a really bad name.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
So is that the point of David Czar, like the cryptos?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
David Sachs, to figure this out. Where we want to be pro-crypto, but we also want to respect that not all cryptography is made equal. That making a meme coin has no necessary value versus Ethereum or versus Solana or Bitcoin. Those things have real value, right? Because they're in real scarcity, takes real energy, and it's real technology and real math behind it. Does that make sense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yeah, thank you so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Can I get a sign? Absolutely, yes. Thank you. All right, any disagreements? And then we gotta go soon, guys.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
That's a great question. We believe we have a different view of education than the Chinese. The Chinese, which actually is our current model, they look at educators as carpenters to make kids carved in a certain way to be widgets in a broader system.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
And it's true in essence, education, educators should be more like gardeners, allowing kids to grow into what they possibly can become into a full and complete citizen and having their soul deepened in the beauty and the richness of life. It's a different view, right? So it's more of a classical view of education. The Chinese model is great from a totalitarian standpoint. You will do this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
You will learn that. You will serve the state, and you will be very good at it. There's maybe a role for that. I actually would rather have us have millions of thoughtful, deep, philosophically-minded good citizens. that know what it is to think critically, and they can solve any problem that comes after them. The Department of Education is an administrative state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
It is this massive beast that is way overfunded, way overbloated, more administrators than not, and if we want to compete with China, we're not going to out-totalitarian them. Instead, we should do what is necessary for a free society to continue to exist. The only way a free society exists is if citizens know what liberty is. It's the only way a free society can continue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Got it. So we're going to push a lot of the money back to the states, and we have to empower parents to be more actively involved in their kids' education. This is another thing that China does not have. I'm not knocking on China.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yes, sir. Or otherwise interesting questions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Taiwan or China?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
No, no, for sure. They support all of us. They push you, for sure. Are they teaching you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Fair enough. I'm not here to knock on China. I want to respect your country. But let me just ask you a question. Do they teach you about Tiananmen Square? They inform us. Do they teach you about Tiananmen Square?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Do they say that is Taiwan Taiwan or is it land of the Chinese Communist Party?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Is that eventually you get towards truth claims and the state has to make a decision. Thank you. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Well, first of all, there's no evidence that the amount of plane crashes actually any more than previous years. It's just that we're paying attention to it more because of the singular really bad one that happened in Washington, D.C.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Which is not in our airspace.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
It's a weird case. Now, there was a midair collision in Arizona yesterday. There was also one of a guy in Scottsdale, private jet, another private jet. The question is, yes, I think all federal agencies should be subject to cutting the bloat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
The bigger issue where President Trump deserves credit, which maybe you can agree on, maybe not, is that the people who are doing air traffic control, they should be there based on merit, not based on skin color. We want the best people to be air traffic controllers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I'm not saying it is, but you can understand how we can get to a lackluster air traffic control grid if we don't have the best and brightest being air traffic controllers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
No, it's important. So I would have worded it differently, but let me ask you a question. If Russia had missiles, weapons, and troops in Mexico, would we be warranted to try to defer them?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yeah, and NATO kept on expanding despite the promises we made. Ukraine had every option to settle for peace throughout this entire conflict, and they chose war. There was a meeting in Istanbul, Turkey, between Tony Blinken and Boris Johnson and the Russian foreign minister, and the Ukrainian government came and blew up the entire thing, and a million people unnecessarily died because of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

A million people.

Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Last question, then we'll go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Yes, I think they will be successful in some capacity. The deeper question is, will Congress come alongside of it and actually accompany the cuts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I agree. But increasing the debt ceiling is sometimes necessary to create more space.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I think we need to cut federal spending dramatically right now. Thirty six trillion dollars is too much. We need to cut spending and we need to shrink the size of the federal government dramatically right now. Thank you for your question. Appreciate it. Thank you. Disagreements, guys. Yes. We're going to get behind J.D. in 2028. Right? We like J.D. Everyone likes J.D. All right. Yes, sir.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Several. I mean, it makes things bloated, inefficient, stalls. Also, the incentive structure is largely wrong with nationalization. Now, some industries, by necessity, need to be nationalized, like our military. But generally, I lean towards private sector, decentralized, private ownership of goods. But it's a case-by-case basis. So for necessities, would you be in favor of nationalization?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Not necessarily. It depends on what you mean by a necessity. Look, the government needs to have a monopoly on nuclear weapons. The government does not need to have a monopoly on hospitals. Okay, so to clarify, necessities for life-sustaining, so food, water, shelter, medical care.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I think that private sector forces in those spaces have been better and will be better because you have better quality goods, more accessibility to them, more innovation, and over a period of time, more people get access to them. So, for example, the Soviet Union nationalized... the distribution of food, and you had widespread famine and starving, 30 million people died of famine and starving.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
If you read Stalin's journals, he could not figure out why the collectivization, nationalization of agriculture didn't work. It's because there are so many millions of decisions that go into a market economy that even the most expert central planner would not be able to choreograph. Yeah, I'm not here to discuss central planning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
That's a good argument. It's one of the best ones. An even better one, which I struggle with, not that I'm saying we have to nationalize, is what happens when you have pharmaceutical companies that don't want you to get better but want you to keep on buying the same drug over and over again, and you have a sick care system. So you make a very astute point.

I would argue that when it comes to food, we have two choices. Let's just make it binary. We have more than two choices. We can nationalize and have like a federal department of food, or we could say we want a thousand different entrepreneurs to make really healthy food based on new guidelines and standards.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I would prefer, of course, more entrepreneurs to try to get into this space than trust the federal government to try to fix this problem and nationalize the industry. However, you are correct that That left to their own devices, major corporations are no better than government, especially when it comes to addictive toxins in our bodies. They don't care about making healthy stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
They'll poison us with the Skittles that they feed us or the Snicker bars or the cereal or the Coca-Cola or the red dye 40, the glyphosate, whatever the stuff is. Right. And that does. on the surface, make it a harder argument to defend a purely profit-based market system. So I'm partially agreeing with you. Go to YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com.

The first and foremost way is you have to make sure regulation is not benefiting the incumbent actor in power. So we see this in banking. It's the best example where it's so hard for upstart banks to be able to compete with Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Citibank. Because the amount of paperwork it takes, hundreds of millions of dollars in legal compliance fees.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
So regulation can be used as a tool to actually protect the incumbent economic force. Number two is that if and when there are monopolies, we should break them up. We should be unafraid to do that. That monopolies are not part of market forces. That if there are mergers, if there are things that are coming together that actually are hurting the health and the well-being.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
So I'll give you a great example. In the current status, so let's just look at drug companies, which is one that I think is even better than food. You've got Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, Eli Liu. Those are the big five, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Those companies largely have doubled and tripled in size because we told them, you must go make a vaccine that does not work, which is really a therapeutic and not a vaccine, by the way. and we're going to pay you hundreds of billions of dollars to go do this, and you guys have to go take it or else you can't go to college.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
It doesn't matter if you get myocarditis, pericarditis, or your friends start dropping dead. You've got to keep on taking the vaccine. So what does that mean from the government side? A lot of these companies only get as big as they get because of favorable government contracts and kind of oligoplic practices.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
There's some truth to that. I won't dismiss all of that. But there's a lot of danger in that, too. Anytime we talk about nationalization, you are giving more and more power to a faceless, unelected bureaucrat to be able to intervene with your life. I definitionally have a problem with that. I instinctively have a problem with that. But you are correct.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
The current hospital model and our current health care system is so broken... It's so treacherous. It's so beyond. And here's where I think you and I can agree. Before we get into nationalization or socialization, we'll get to the next question, is that we have a root cause issue. I think that the biggest issue in American health care, this is a little wonky, is insulin resistance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
We have way too many people eating carbohydrates that they do not need. I think that causes type 2 diabetes and obesity, depression, anxiety. Now, that comes from a lot of different places.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
To your point, because it's a good point, you have companies that would rather make the cheap, addictive, carbohydrate-heavy product for a 6-year-old than one that is using avocado oil or one that is better ingredients. I don't know the solution to that. If we don't come up with one, then your side is going to win and everything's going to get nationalized, unfortunately.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
But there has to be a market-based solution because the current system right now, where we have like three big food companies and six major drug companies, and they're all working in tandem together to make you guys sicker, fatter, and quite honestly, more suicidal, more depressed, more anxious, least likely to thrive. I believe a vast majority of America's problem is our diet.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
I'm not sure what your question is. I don't want to go too back in time because I don't remember it, but what is your question?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Our diet is total garbage, the food that we're eating. And then you would say, but Charlie, they're incentivized to be that way. And you would be right. Do I think the answer is government? No. But we both can agree on the diagnosis of the problem. Let me prescribe my argument for nationalization. I hate that word, but yeah. What? Prescribe? No, no, no. Nationalization. What would you prefer?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida
Socialization? Yeah, it feels so Soviet.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Couch-Surfing Elon, Poisonous Skittles, and More From the University of South Florida

They listened to every phone call, every text message without a warrant, and they're doing it inwardly against the American people. Without Snowden, we would not know that. We would not. We would not know that. And so he's currently in exile in Russia. I think he should get a commutation, not a pardon. I think the government should drop all the charges. But the intel agencies call him a traitor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
So James, you've been doing a lot of work with whistleblowers and it seems like you're really hitting a powerful stride. If I ask kind of a personal question, you went through hell many times, but a year and a half ago, is that, am I approximating correctly?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
But, again, look at – exactly. The government are the criminals in this situation. They're the ones that are spying on our private communications. These are our messages and our emails and our – Our own private thoughts. The Fourth Amendment is explicit. The government should get a warrant. They are not. We would not know without Edward Snowden.
The Charlie Kirk Show

This is an insane story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Are you at a place now where you can say that, not that you're thankful for it, but that you have grown in ways you never thought you would because of what you went through in that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Yeah, but I'm telling you, on January 20th, I think you're getting your cell phone back, James O'Keefe. And by the way, we better find out, our friend Kash Patel better find out those agents that did that. I'm not kidding. No, no, there's going to be a reckoning coming here. You don't have to say anything, James. This is not acceptable. We're not going to put up with this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
This is secret police stuff. This is an American journalist where you could just take his cell phone. For what? What were they accusing you of? Do you know what it was? The Ashley Biden diary that he had nothing to do with, for the record. He never published it. He was someone who looked at it as a journalist. Am I right, James? You just viewed it. I don't want to publish it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And they wanted an excuse to come after him in this dragnet in the Southern District of New York. FBI. It was so outrageous. Anybody in public life, any of you guys, if the FBI shows up at your door, you do not talk to them. You do not whisper to them. You have your lawyer's number written on a piece of paper in a drawer. You open up the drawer. You call your lawyer. You sit down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
You say, I invoke every single right. I'm not saying anything. I'm not opening a device. Call my lawyer. That's it. And you sit on the couch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Powerful. Next question. Yep.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Go ahead. Well, the transparency side, James can. I wouldn't recommend any primaries. Those races are too contentious, so I don't think it applies there. Do you want to talk to the transparency side? There's not much to say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
All right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Thank you, man. Next question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Well, first of all, I think that the central cover-up of modernity that means post-1960 was the JFK assassination. I think that the Central Intelligence Agency was either involved or responsible for the murder of JFK. I believe it's my core. Obviously, I can't prove it, but I can get pretty close to circumstantially proving it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And the fact that they still do not allow the declassification of those files 60 to 70 years later means that there's something that if that were to come to light, people would then lose trust in their government. That's the only reason why they would not. It's not like they're covering for confidential sources. They're all dead. Everyone's dead, involved. So it's not about that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
It's that it would then get people to then go deeper down the rabbit hole of questioning their government and their intel agencies. We are not going to get any of those declassifications if we don't get Tulsi Gabbard. Tulsi Gabbard at DNI is the final sign-off on declassification orders. We must demand out of our senators that they confirm Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
I cannot tell you how important that is. Tulsi Gabbard is instrumental. It is key. I could talk at length about JFK, but I think that the cover-up, the lying about all of the circumstances around the JFK assassination, I think it would be very healing and cathartic for the country to be able to see what really happened to John Fitzgerald Kennedy in Dallas, Texas.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Next question, Daisy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
I ask, James, only because I think it could be an inspiration for people in this audience that are going through hell right now and to show how you can build out of it and that you can keep on fighting. Yeah. And...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
You cannot be comfortable and courageous. It's not possible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Yeah, I'm not so sure that a congressman would have done that. I'm not sure. I think the story would have died and they would have killed him. And we might disagree, but again, that's just speculation. I think you make a great point, and that's the best counterargument that I've heard, and I've heard it from similar people in the national security space. I was nuanced. I said he was reckless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Remember, I said that. I think he was. But it's more about... Let me also make another argument for his pardon. The people that would be against his pardon are the worst people on the planet. They're people that would like nothing more than to keep this veil of secrecy around the classification structure in Langley and at Liberty Crossing, which is a CIA and DNI. So I think you make a good point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
I would just say, though, that... For him fleeing, I mean, I think he would have gotten Epstein within a year in federal prison. I mean, that's just me. Maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, I mean, if he would have turned it over to one of those 500 representatives, I'd have to think about it. I mean, he did turn over the files to Glenn Greenwald as a journalist, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
So look, I'm not going to defend everything he did, but I don't know if he would have survived if he would have stayed on American soil.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And I would say the best argument you make is that he should have just faced the charges. I think that's the best argument. So I think him fleeing was probably the least meritorious of what he did. I agree. So I will find agreement with you on that for sure. Great. Yes, Daisy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
No, I don't either. The whole thing is very weird. It has invoked a fair amount of speculation. We actually have a guest on tomorrow. We need to find time, Daisy, of a guy who – He's done a lot of work on alien sightings. Who's convinced this is not an alien sighting? His name is Stephen Greer. He's a really smart guy. Actually, book unacknowledged.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
If you guys are into it, it's a great book, by the way. It's really good. It's actually really good. You might think it's wacky. You read the book, you're like, whoa. He's done all the research there. I have no idea what it is. I'm not going to conjecture, but I do not trust my government. Next question. Next question.

I think we're already looking at the difference, right? I mean, Bobby Kennedy is like the biggest swamp-draining middle finger to the public health establishment. And by the way, it's not just Bobby Kennedy. Jay Bhattacharya is amazing. Marty McCary is also amazing. Tulsi Gabbard is a major swamp drainer. Pete Hegseth at the Department of Defense will be a major swamp drainer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
We did not have a roster of changemakers like this last time. We have Russ Vogt at OMB. We have J.D. Vance in the vice presidency. I mean, we have rock stars across the board. What's the difference? We have Doge with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy as well. Big difference. It's a totally different operating philosophy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And I've said this multiple times throughout this conference, is that sometimes we don't know what's good for us. And I believe it's God. I believe the four years of us not being in power was really good for us. I think it made us purge the bad guys, go through our plans, figure out really what we're all about. It strengthened us. It deepened us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And the fact you guys are applauding, I think, is one of the coolest things. That's you applauding the fact we didn't take power in 2020. And right, last in 2020, we were like, the world is over. It's terrible. Turned out to be an amazing blessing and advantage for us. Great life lesson there. Phenomenal life lesson. Last question, Daisy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
So James, before we wrap this up, because we have to take a break, and then we have Trump's border czar coming, which is going to be an amazing conversation. That's going to be awesome.

Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
What can this audience do? And by the way, you're talking to millions of people online, not live, but it's going to be posted on social. James, yeah, talk about the movie and stuff.

Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Plug all the things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Yeah, and we talked about this on the show. It's worth repeating. One of the other little project portfolio things, as I mentioned, is Donald Trump doing whistleblower amnesty for like a 90-day period. He takes office, says, hey, everybody who worked under Biden, you can come forward with all protections regardless of the agency. Isn't this a great idea? And tell us what was happening.

Great idea. We kind of came up with it on air.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And then we can do something about it. James, talk about some. Let's talk about one in particular. And you're friends with Bobby Kennedy. Yes. And the Bobby Kennedy appointment, by the way, is one of Donald Trump's most courageous things he has ever done, ever done. It is FOMA instituting that into our government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
James, I don't want to rehash this because I know it's painful, but it's also repetitive. But I think it's important because it shows the power and the treacherous nature. Your departure from Project Veritas was strangely coordinated with also your greatest story ever. Can you retell that? Because it ties with the Bobby Kennedy appointment. Those things are actually connected.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
Do you want to elaborate on that? Go ahead. I used to be of the opinion that Snowden, not a good guy. The more you study and you realize that the intel agencies are the central nervous system of almost every ill that we have in our country, the courage it takes to reveal the evil activity of the intel agencies is remarkable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
And what Snowden did, I don't know if it was necessarily heroic because it was probably actually more reckless, but it was certainly courageous. There was definitely a reckless component. You have to be honest, okay? Because he just dumped a lot of files and it could have gotten people killed. It didn't. It did not. Not a single confidential human source got killed. However, what he did...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe
in my opinion, which was very beneficial to humanity, is that he revealed the outright lying of the National Security Agency. They said they were not doing mass data collection. They said they were not doing warrantless spying. They said they were not doing blanket coverage of cell phone data. And it was all lying.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
There's overlap. Everyone's talking. Jack, so explain to me how, if you are intercepting communications that might have to do with the Ayatollah Khomeini that is civilian. Explain that to me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So that makes sense. I got it. But let's kind of take a step back or a step to the side here, Blake. Should there be other restrictions for trans people of working in our government in period?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
And is that constitutional?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
But no, I mean, let's play this out, though. I mean, hold on. If someone is bipolar schizophrenic and starts screaming in their workplace, you could make an argument that person should not serve at the Department of Interior.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Should trans people be allowed to serve in the federal government?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
And that's what it is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Like Delaware. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
All right. Jack, would you like to increase the temperature of thought crime here or bring it down? You have a choice here. Fork in the road.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I am 90% sure they got rid of it. I think it was gender disorder in four. Let me ask.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Let me see. I'm asking my perplexity. No, you're right. It is there, but what is, what did I read in some book? Keep going, Jack. I'm not trying to. Oh yeah. So it changed from the SM4. It changed the term as a disorder to just gender dysphoria. So let me just be clear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So it was gender disorder. Gender identity disorder. It is no longer a disorder. So they consider it a thing, but there's nothing wrong with you. Does that make sense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
But there's nothing wrong, but you need insurance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Charlie Kirk here, and this new year, it's going to be exciting. 2025 is bringing a regime change in America, a chance to reorder and make things right again in our country.

So, Jack, you believe you have clarity on the why. I seek to know. Okay. So I seek to understand the phenomena here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I think what he did was in total cold blood. I just think it's disgusting. Why do so many people not just... So there's two elements here. There's the Kaczynski. I get that. Okay. Girls like bad boys. They don't have fathers around. They don't have boyfriends. Okay, fine. You know, that's one, you know, one other thing. The other part is why is there mass like quiet support for what he did?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Does that make sense? So there's two, there's two elements here. The bad boy phenomena. I'm not that interested in. That's been well documented from Kaczynski to Eric Rudolph, Ted Bundy, Ted Bundy. That that's been, you know, that's been figured out. Help me understand. Right. Help me understand the other part, please.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
You're ruining what we're supposed to read.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So let's take a step back, Blake. I think this is important. When I talk to boomers about this, they're kind of really disconnected from it, not to criticize them. Can you please educate how much of a cultural icon he has become? Oh, enormous. Explain it because I talked to all the people. What do you mean? He's a criminal. He's terrible. Nobody likes him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, talk about how there's real viral subterranean momentum for this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Now. So help me understand. This is on government devices, government computers during work times as a taxpayer funded. And so these are trannies that are like discussing their private sex changes on these chats. How did we how did we learn about this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So, I mean, I again, I say this as with a staunch, unblemished record of heterosexuality. He seems to be a good looking guy. It seems so.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
We get the Seinfeld clip of the unblemished record of heterosexuality. I mean, I look at Luigi and I say, OK, he do you agree?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Well, no, Trump should then find federal charges against him. I mean, there's got to be some interstate law that he broke conspiracy to commit murder. At that moment, you got to bring the DOJ and take him out of New York. I'm not kidding.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I'm not making Alabama or something. I'm not making a joke. I'm saying I guarantee you there's some sort of I. In fact, this is an important thing. I might message Pam Bondi about it also because I'm saying it publicly or privately. The Fed should quietly be building a case just in case. of, okay, was he sending text messages? Because he fled across state lines, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
All this stuff, you can get him for more, I don't want to say ticky-tack, but less, one second, Jack, less like, okay, not just the murder itself, which I think does also violate, by the way, federal law. You're not allowed to murder. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yeah, and by the way, the local prosecutor should have some humility. If he feels as if it's going, just drop the charges. Meaning you could basically do a motion to dismiss before the jury meets, and then you could refile. Right? As soon as the jury comes and says not guilty, it's double jeopardy. You literally can't.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Uh, but yeah, I mean, I think that there is a, there is a place now, now understand though, if one hung juror, that doesn't mean that he's acquitted them. No, then they could, so they could, so he's going to spend the rest of his life in some sort of, this is too graphic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
All right. So just so we're clear, this is me with Luigi Maggioni. Play cut 153.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Of course, we get death threats all the time. That's who these people are. So, yeah. So does this teach us anything about our politics that we should be concerned about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I'm going to mention something Blake's not going to like. FBI launches investigation into James Comey.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Are you okay with that one? Because of an off-the-books honeypot operation targeting 2016 Trump campaign.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
This all ties in with Dan Bongino going in. So new leadership at the FBI is starting an investigation into the origins of the agency's plan a decade ago to infiltrate Trump's campaign using two female undercover honeypot agents.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
This is reported as fact. One second, Jack. The off-the-books investigation launched in 2015 by James Comey was revealed by an agency whistleblower in a protected disclosure to the House Judiciary Committee last year and was first reported exclusively by Washington Times. So this apparently has been out there. Wow.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
And the intel community, in the intel community, a honeypot commonly refers to an undercover operative, usually a woman, who feigns sexual or romantic interest to obtain information from a target. Jack.

Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. Brand new year, brand new opportunities to change the world for the better. It's easier than you might think. You can save babies by providing ultrasounds with Preborn. Together with the Sanctity of Human Life Month, we're going to save 35,000 babies to show the world that not only do we believe life is precious, but we're going to do something about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Your gift to Preborn will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice. What better way to start this new year than to join us to save babies? and $28 a month will save a baby a month all year long. A $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So I guess, can we all agree that people that are trans should not serve in the intel services?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yeah, so I think the first concern is that the amount of physical energy that it takes to do that, I don't think the infrastructure has been built yet. Like, that's an actual problem. It is. Like, the data servers alone. And this is interesting. While the people are saying we might be on the event horizon, Microsoft just canceled a ton of leases for their AI servers. Did you see that story?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I did not. They just said, like, oh, sorry, we're not advancing this. Yeah, it's really interesting. So everyone's bullish on AI. Microsoft, $3 trillion. And they're like, sorry, we got to slow this down a little bit. We can't quite keep up with it. The amount of physical energy it takes to power AI, we have that capacity. That infrastructure is not built.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So it's like a million times more energy intense than mining Bitcoins.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, that's right. And we don't yet have the infrastructure to do that. And we now have insane demand for AI. So what we're about to see is an AI traffic jam, the likes of which that really is going to tick people off.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I know more about AI than I do about pop culture.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yeah, so I'm not believing that singularity is going to be hit anytime soon. And here's why. You know the singularity paradox, that you actually never know if it hits singularity?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, because the AI right now could tell you that it's self-aware, but it's actually not self-aware. It's just parroting something that it read on the internet, knowing that that's what you say when it's singular.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yeah, exactly. So you actually don't know if it's ever, so you actually will never know if singularity is actually ever reached.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Well, no, technically singularity means that it is self-aware, that it knows it is a machine and you are not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, I think that's singularity, isn't it, Jack?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, I think I'm right, aren't I, Ryan? I think I'm... Did I just correct... Did I just fact-check Blake? I don't think... Ryan says, no, Blake, you're actually wrong for once. This is why... No, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
This is why... It's a hypothetical point in which the technological growth goes uncontrollably reversible, resulting in unforeseeable consequence. But... I need to read this whole thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
but it totally makes sense so the hacker trans world has a lot of overlap yes tons especially at the top so you're you're you're exempt from this because you're like chronically online and definitely not trans so but like the chronically online tend to be like more autistic more fringy more like willing to be captured by social contagions i think they have less antibodies against bad ideas is that fair to say i think it's that but i think it's not just bad ideas it's
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Let me ask you a provocative question, and I could do AI all day long because I think it's the most interesting thing happening. I think everything else is a distraction. I think AI is the most important thing happening on the planet right now, like more important than everything. And I actually think it can be really exciting and also terrifying. If singularity is reached, Jack, is it a species?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So the question then is also what's so interesting is that it's a species just on a server that technically exists at the will of us. If you take a hammer, you could destroy the species.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
But how? How do they physically expand beyond a server? That's where it starts to get interesting. Technically, they're literally just housed on a server.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, I mean, look, I think... And by the way, it could multiply itself through robots. And robots are coming very quickly. Yeah. Way more so than... By the way, I have a whole conspiracy theory. The media is underplaying the advancement of robots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
If you talk to the smart tech investors, they're fully functional. They're ready to go. The rollout is coming. Mass unemployment is around the corner.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
How is that not the number one story? Again, we're talking about systemic racism or Doge. All that stuff is interesting. There is this barreling train that's about to change everything. Change the species as we know it. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I will say in the short term, I am more bullish on AI because I think it actually can make human beings better what we already do. My fear is that that's going to be a short-lived window. Is that it's going to be like a five to ten year golden era?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
All of these are moral questions, and that's why it comes back to why we're conservatives, not libertarians. Everything – that's why I think it's the most interesting thing that's facing humanity. It all comes back to, well, we need a neutral public space. There is no neutral public space for AI. You need to make truth claims. Do human beings matter? Does life matter? Who gets the stuff?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Why do they get that stuff? AI is going to force us into the most important moral conversation since Christ. I really believe that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Listen, we're going towards a mass social welfare state, and the only way that they're going to be able to spin it is that there's going to be a robot tax where every robot that is working is going to be like $50,000 a year to the government that you're going to have to pay that will go to a UBIT. That idea has been floated. That's where we're heading. It's coming very quickly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
And there will be a short window where companies are going to be able to use robots to maximize profits. There'll be huge worker strikes. Congress will meet. There'll be like 50,000 tax per robot as a user tax. So it's like, hey, if you replace a human being, you have to pay for a human being, basically. It's going to be a one for one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Of course. And so I'm saying like these are insane questions that we're facing. But at the other time, there's incredibly bullish interpretations to the sector that I'm most excited about. Not on the mRNA vaccine thing, but just the number one problem with medicine and health care is data. No one knows what you have, your background. Why is it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Does someone else in Singapore also have your condition? What helped for them? What's their full history? Read your genome. Read all your sorts of different diet, your blood work. No human being can possibly do it. It's not possible. There's millions of data inputs that come to our, do you have a predisposition to cancer? Are you developing a heart problem?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
AI, the most exciting advancement of all of it, is how it could reduce unjust suffering. Without a doubt, the most exciting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yes, we're just saying, we're going to find out if you have a predisposition to cancer by age 35, which the technology there is there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
OK, Jack. Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Yeah, exactly. And I mean, it is this here. Here's and I'll close this because I know Tyler's got to run and I got to run. There is a temptation to think we're going to enter into a Star Trek world where no one owns anything and there's no currency. I think it's going to be a lot clumsier than that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I think that if we don't have good leadership and statesmen of the Churchillian type, this will get us into war, the likes of which we've never seen. There will be revolution in the streets. It'll make the Russian revolution look like child's play. If 5,000 people own everything and robots are running the world, there will be a workers' revolt that no one can control.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So these are the most—I just want everyone to—you can mark this down, February 2025. This is going to—this will redefine everything. Everything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
Again, that's actually where I'm really excited, though, is that it's the human being, it's us that are going to have to solve these questions. And people are like, oh, you know, this is really eventful. If you think that Trump 2024 was eventful, wait for 2032 when we have to answer the highest stakes questions. And these are not easy questions. It's like, what is the role of the state?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
What does liberty mean if you have a robot that does everything? What do you do all day long? Is this going to make people happier and more miserable, more suicidal and more flourishing? Why even have kids like these are really important questions. What is God? Why are we here? I mean, of cosmological significance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I'm excited for it because I think we're way better equipped as conservatives and as Christians to engage in this than like a secular materialist. What is their answer? Oh, neutral public square, because I'm Sam Harris. Shut up. You're not equipped for this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I inherently reject doomerism. I'm more interested that it's going to it. I think that we are being as a movement prepared for this window of time where, you know, we can play, you know, the boomers, this like Gen Z millennials, when we get towards peak political maturity in 10, 15 or 20 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
All of this experience is going to have a crescendo where we're going to be answering and deciding and governing. It will be like the Magna Carta for human beings. I know that might sound like a hyperbole, but 500 years from now, they're going to look back and be like, wow, in 2040, that original Declaration of Rights of...
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
here's what ai does and here's what it doesn't do here's and then then we chart the path for the next thousand years that's how important this is it's bigger than like solving wars and the border all that stuff's important this is the stuff that will determine whether or not we exist as a species but the only government that can do is america the american people are the only ones i think predisposed to answer those questions and man you want to talk about again i could talk about the rest of the world's a
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
disaster i've done so much thinking about this there will be such a revealing moment of someone that's nakedly bought by corporations that will make a short-term deal yeah where they're like and they'll just do it for money or a payoff where these corporations are like i can displace 99 of my workforce and like that's going to expose our politics in a way that will make people revolt so anything else you want to add to that i'm still right about singularity
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
It's the singularity involves emergence of artificial general intelligence, AGI, which means it has human level cognitive abilities, followed by artificial super intelligence, which would exceed human abilities that would allow it to have sentience and self-awareness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I think everything's preparing us for this. I think it's the purpose of why we are here. I'm not kidding. I think this is the most, you guys can laugh the same way that like DeSoto and Columbus, you know, discovered the new world. There's a new world waiting for us. And we need to figure out why we're like, what is our purpose? And it's, we cannot allow it to sneak up on us.

The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
I think so. I think that is right. And so I guess the question is for some people in the audience, Jack, do you have any, I mean, you served in the intel services and you're not trans and not gay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So, so Jack, help me understand how, how training, how training is our intel services more interestingly, how, like what percentage of people in the NSA are trans since it's very hacker focused, very computer. Yeah. So, so I mean, I mean, it's non-sarcastically, I mean, is it the traniest of all of government agencies?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
So let's go a step further. I think that there is a an interesting connection with how many trans people become helicopter pilots. Have you noticed this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
And I think that I've done some thinking about it. I think it's because there's some sort of like exoskeleton that is around you when you're in when you're a helicopter pilot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 75 — AI Singularity? National Security Gay-gency? Luigi the Loverboy
No, but there is something philosophical and ideological where let's say you're a man who thinks you're a woman and you then can assume kind of complete control of something that is not yourself. And like the almost like it attaches to your being. Is that making any sense to you?

Totally fake. The trannies were the ones that helped organize delete Uber. Do you remember delete Uber early on in the Trump administration? Yeah. Do you guys remember this?

But Donald – President Trump in that press conference kind of went after the state-run religion of DEI.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
And it wasn't just like tampering on the edges. It was like a full – metaphorical, political and cultural execution. Being like, this has no place in society. We need smart people. And by the way, in the very Trumpian way, it was awfully persuasive. He's like, you got 60 planes going and supercomputers. Do we have President Trump from the press conference?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
I thought he was awesome on this topic, to be honest with you. And because you could tell President Trump was mad, and he wasn't necessarily mad at any particular person. He was just mad that a system would put up with mediocrity, a system that would allow this to occur, a system that does not have merit. And he almost...
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
It's kind of like a new CEO or new manager comes into a company and something bad happens like a week and a half onto the job. He's like, no more. This is unacceptable. And we're not going to put up with it. So let me see the clip sheet here. Ryan just said reference the clip sheet. Let me see here. What do we have? Do we have the President Trump? Yeah, we do. Okay. Yeah, this is it.

Yeah, so tell us more about that, Jack. Give us kind of the inside baseball. Both of us had government flights this week. I'm actually more interested in yours. There's a fleet of DHS flights.

Let's go to cut 211 right now. Vaughn Hilliard, 211, doing more of my press. 211.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
I have a lot of thoughts on this, but I'm going to let other people talk. By the way, that was a pretty comprehensive clip by Vaughn as if I'm some sort of like whisper on FAA policy. Like I convened a meeting in the White House. All right, guys, listen to me. We got to talk about pilots. I mean, it's just laughable.

The IRS just stepped up enforcement. If you owe back taxes or have unfilled returns, do not wait for the IRS letter to act. Waiting to get caught makes you look like a tax evader and it will not end well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
Getting ahead of this is the smart move, but never, never contact the IRS alone. Turn it over to Tax Network USA. Why? Because not all tax resolution companies are the same. First, Tax Network USA has a strong relationship with the IRS. Second, they have a preferred direct line to the IRS. And why is that important to you? Because they know which agents to deal with and which ones to avoid.

THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
I actually – yeah, I mean I want to say I've never used it, but there was a moment when I – there was the R the Donald was unbelievably great. R the Donald was so good they had to – Did I just earn Jack's respect a little bit?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
Do you know what a nimble navigator is? It was so complicated. No, no. Meaning like the tech... The technology of Reddit was always so confusing of how to post, how to comment. They were all anons. However, I did have the Reddit app on my phone only for R the Donald because during 2017, 2018, 2019, before it got banned, that was way better than Twitter for processing based flow of information.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
So yes, Blake, I do know Reddit. As soon as they got rid of are the Donald, I got rid of Reddit on my phone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
And so I got banned for life because I said I didn't think Kirk Cousins needed to take the vaccine. But wasn't the whole appeal of Reddit that it kind of flirted above 4chan and the more unregulated parts of the internet? Wasn't that the appeal that it almost like semi-dipped into that, but it was kind of like the cross-section? Maybe I'm wrong.

So that's a segue. Who wants to kick us off? How about Blake? Blake, the audience is probably almost assuredly well aware of what happened in the Potomac. Actually, it was right outside my hotel room last evening. It woke up my son, actually. It was so loud outside of our hotel room. Woke him up, and we weren't sure what was going on. Obviously, we found out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
I'll tell you that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
one thing that they are underestimating and i've had a chance to meet with them the intensity of the doge people is really remarkable understand it's not just elon elon has brought in this like platoon of lieutenants that are i mean you you don't want to mess with these guys and they have done turnarounds they've come like elon has used them replicated over in companies before
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
And I'll tell you, there is a sequence to how they've planned this out. And I guarantee you that some of these people that are posting this stuff on Reddit, they could be found out of who they are. Insubordination will not be tolerated. Saying you're not going to follow a president's orders is against the law and certainly against your contractual agreement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
And so, yeah, they can yammer all they want. I think a lot of this is performative, but do not underestimate Elon and the Doge team. Be able to find these people, root them out, and hopefully be able to shrink the size of government. And this also begs this other question. It drives me nuts. And I wish I was able to do this more on the mainstream networks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
But we keep on falling into this trap that the bureaucracy and the Department of Justice and the CIA is independent. This is a bunch of crap. It is under Article 2. There is not a fourth branch of government. It is under the sole discretion of the President of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
You hear these hearings, well, you know, Kash Patel's nomination might interfere with the interference of the FBI, the independence of the FBI. The FBI is not independent. First of all, it was never chartered by Congress. It was an act by the President. So it is a mythology. It is an administrative state modern fiction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
that we must live under this idea that all of these bureaucracies are like a super government over the executive branch and like the president can offer suggestions. And I think it's time for us to be an article two absolutist. It's either the, and by the way, just so we're clear, they do believe the bureaucracies are,
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
operate under a Democrat president, but when it's a Republican president, it's like the total independence, you can't do anything. And so I think it's really important we reclaim the language on this. And these federal workers, they don't call the shots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
And there's also this final point where we live under this legislative Article I supremacy, where, for example, there was this Senate confirmation question, and they're asking somebody about the Impoundment Act. I don't know who they were asking. It was asking Bobby Kennedy about it. They said, well, do you think that the executive branch is able to not spend money that Congress sends?
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
We were looking at the emergency lights almost... all evening uh blake president trump had a press conference where he went after dei is that connected to this at all and more broadly what does dei have to do with air traffic control kind of coming full circle here for the thought crime program
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
And the answer is, of course, meaning that the tension between the branches is actually what the founders wanted. There is not a hierarchy where the legislative branch is superior to the executive or the Supreme court. They are co equal branches and restraining and reigning in the federal bureaucracy is one of the most important things that we can do to restore the founders intent of article two.

And even Daryl Scott tweeted out, not necessarily about this, but he said Charlie Kirk was right and we're all friends. And so it's all good. So let's actually play this. This is Joy Reid, who kind of comes back and says, that I must be in Trump's ear about this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
No, I've actually not spoken to the president about this topic. Other things I have spoken to him about, but not this thing. So you're wrong on this one, Joy, but keep guessing. Play cut 209.

it's been reported that it's a female co-pilot and that she was training on some night vision night vision nighttime training so there we do know we do have this report here and then i want to play some tape it says initial faa report indicates staffing at air traffic control was not normal now i remember back during our controversy last year of which we are being proven correct
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
that we said that there were lots of near misses. So I want to play this from the deputy administration, administrator for the FAA in 2023. And then Blake, I want you to walk through how near misses has become a pattern. We've been talking about how at Chicago hair airport, that there's been tons of near misses where there's been whistleblowers about how ATC controllers are not qualified.
The Charlie Kirk Show
THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 71 — Airline DEI Again! Fed Redditors? Gayest Movie Ever?
Apparently, people who know what they're talking about are saying the ATC did not intervene nearly as aggressively or decisively as they should have when they saw this kind of potential collision popping up. I can't speak to that. I'll be perfectly honest. I don't know what is normal or what is not. Let's play this first, though. Let's play what the FAA has been hiring.

I've heard a lot of these trans stories. That one might be the most shocking. A kid who wants to shoot up the school, fully gets naked, touches himself, basically masturbates, and the girls get punished and get an F for not watching it and not being around it. Remarkable.

We just talked about how Jair Bolsonaro is likely going to jail and will die in jail in Brazil. And now in France, Marine Le Pen, a French court has convicted Marine Le Pen of embezzlement and sentenced her to a five-year ban on running for office. The case is very arcane. Le Pen isn't convicted of enriching herself.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
Instead, the claim is that she oversaw her party national rally inappropriately diverting European Union funds meant to pay for aides instead of pay for party staffers from 2004 to 2016. In context, it's clear what the real goal is. French prosecutors have been trying to jail Marine Le Pen. For literally decades, in 2015, she beat a charge of inciting religious hatred.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Le Pen is currently polling in first place for the French 2027 presidential election, but she can't run because she's banned from running. Joining us now is Kurt Schlichter. Kurt, it feels as if we've seen this movie before, and it's playing out all across the Western world.

What bothers me is that I think there's a deeper game at play here where the French are basically saying we don't care about Trump's potential tariff threats because Trump could tariff France and saying you're locking in Marine Le Pen. What is the calculus here from countries like Brazil and France that are very dependent on the United States?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
I mean, France is going about locking up a opposition leader while there's questions whether NATO is going to continue. And there is no NATO without the United States. The Europeans are completely incapable of raising their own military, of financing their own fighting force. They're completely incapable of having the technological capacity to fight a modern war.

If you're a mom, if you're a dad, and if you know anyone that's still voting for the Democrat Party, here's my challenge to you. Text this episode to your Democrat relatives and have them listen to the first 10 minutes. It's all factual. It is of a young man, 200 pounds in a school in Wisconsin, who fully gets naked in a girl's locker room, rubs himself in the genitals around these girls.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And all of this seems to be just to support mass migration. They'll do anything to stop a nationalist populist movement of Europe.

the European elites, it seems as if they will burn down everything just to keep migration going. Everything.

And it seems there's so much secular guilt that these nations have post-World War II that it does have a religious component to atone for, especially the Germans. They are blamed for all the problems of World War II, so therefore we must go import tens of millions of Mohammedans that are going to hunt down the women of the West.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
That's exactly right. You're right. It's flexible for whatever keeps them in power. All of a sudden, nationalism is cool because it's against Trump.

Private student loan debt in the United States totals about $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. YREFI refinances distressed or defaulted private student loans that others simply won't touch. They provide you with a custom loan payment. Understand, YREFI supports our campus tours. They support our Student Action Summit. YWLS, they support this program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
They are total patriots. This is the place where you should refinance your private student loan debt. It may not be available in all 50 states. Just call 888-YREFI34 or log on to YREFI.com. That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Do you have a co-borrower? Well, YREFI can get them released from the loan and you can give mom or dad a break.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Let's face it, if you have distressed or defaulted private student loans, nobody is coming to bail you out, and bankruptcy is not an option, but you can take charge of your situation by contacting YRefi.

It ties into your book, The Attack Curt, which is the rise and the spread of Muhammadism across the Anglosphere and across the West. It has not hit America nearly as bad as other countries, but we have Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. And all across Europe, we are seeing once great countries that then became weak and secular now are becoming hostile and Islamic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
Kurt, how should we think about the gradual, now very pernicious, threat of Muhammadism swallowing the West?
The Charlie Kirk Show

That's right. That's exactly right. I want to play this piece of tape super quick.

This is Australia on the Australian state television network. This is what's coming here if we allow more and more Mohammedans. This is on Australian television. These are girls taken to a mosque and they get lectured about Sharia law. It's not enough just to allow Muslims in your country. They must come after your women. Cut 135.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
I mean, there is so much there, Kurt. But just so everyone understands, those are a group of young Anglo women being lectured by this conqueror.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
And they fill that existential void with pagan pseudo religions of the West. Yep. I do. I do like your analysis, Kurt. I am encouraged that the American people are seeing these mass deportations and they're like, good. In fact, what is getting the American people fired up is that their goodies of the government might be a little cut. You I'll be honest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
Back in January, I made the prediction that immigration was going to be the thing that the media focused the most on. Turns out it's cutting of government programs and the cash flow, not the mass deportation. Very fascinating.

They must look at it. They must be around it. And then they get punished for leaving the locker room. Not an exaggeration. Listen to it carefully. Text it to your Democrat friends and say, really, this is what you're for? Because they are. That's what the Democrat Party supports, which is the taking of the innocence of our children and public acts of sexual indecency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
it's terrible thank you i want to just summarize so the audience really internalize that so here you have a 200 pound boy for the record that's heavier than me okay i weigh like 192 to 195 and i'm six foot five i'm a pretty big person 200 pound boy in high school and so then he he then gets fully naked there's no surgery or anything so full genitalia starts rubbing his genitals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
So you could make the argument that he's potentially masturbating in front of these girls. We don't know that for sure, but awfully close and leering at them. Then these minor girls feel violated because there's this pervert touching himself in front of these minor girls. So they decide to disengage. Nope. No adult stands up for these girls.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
As this pervert is touching his genitals in front of these girls, they go into the gender neutral bathroom. And then the gym teachers were telling the girls that they were being dramatic and that they get punished while the pervert ends up becoming the hero of the story. Now, let me tell you one just element of this, and you don't have to comment on this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
It was a mistake ever building these gender neutral bathrooms. You get this because you build these gender neutral bathrooms. Once you start to accommodate delusion and insanity, then you get this problem. So the thought process, well, if we just build gender neutral bathrooms, this won't matter because obviously this kid is dealing with an issue. We try to appease it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
And by the way, we saw this in Deerfield High School, the exact same thing about 30 minutes down the street from you where they have gender neutral bathrooms. The gender neutral bathrooms sounded reasonable on the surface and sounded with good intentions. Hey, there's a kid that's struggling. Let's try to accommodate them. But then the kid says, no, no, I'm actually a woman.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
Don't put me in some sort of segregated space. And so this becomes. I just want to reemphasize, if you think that you're going to solve it by building another space, you're wrong. And these adults are pushing political agendas. And so I know this might sound like a very blunt question, but for some of these minor girls that are 15 or 16, that might have been their first exposure to male genitalia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
So for the rest of their life, they might now have a starring image of some pervert in the locker room that they are forced to experience. So their first exposure to male genitalia of some 200-pound guy rubbing himself. That is, I mean, that's psychotic.

If a Wisconsin man were to walk into a locker room, got naked and started robbing himself, what law would he be breaking? What turns out defied under Wisconsin Statute 944.20, this law prohibits public and indecent exposure of one's genitals in a public area or pubic area. Such conduct is considered improper or vulgar and is subject to legal penalties.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
Disordial conduct under Wisconsin Statute 947.01, engaged behavior tends to cause or provoke a disturbance. So in the Wisconsin law, It's illegal what this young man is doing. If this young man were just to walk into a Lifetime Fitness or to walk into a Gold's Gym and to start getting naked and started touching himself, he would potentially be arrested.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
So I do have to just ask, and I know this is a very... Why are parents putting up with this? Forget the letters. Forget... I mean, this is... I'll be honest, these parents aren't fighting hard enough. Tell me what they're doing. Why are they still sending kids to this school? Why are they putting up with this, actually?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
But also, so this is what, Wauwatosa or is it what? Yeah, Westosha. I get all my beautiful Native American Wisconsin cities mixed up. So I know this sounds kind of silly. Why doesn't the sheriff just go and arrest this young man?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
Yeah, we forgot about that. This young man literally said, I'm going to go shoot up the entire school. So we all have to accommodate. These young girls have to now be exposed by force to male genitalia. They get punished if they don't. So they go to the other locker room. They get an F. He is threatening to shoot up the entire school. And so you must now go through.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
If you are a teenage girl in Wisconsin, you must go through the humiliation ritual of looking at naked men touch themselves that are 200 pounds. And if you do not do that while he's leering and taunting them. And if you don't do that, you're being dramatic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
At the same time, if a young man probably wore a Trump hat at that school and you said that you were offended, that kid would probably have to leave school and all these girls would be given a day off of school. But no, no, no. The thing that really is not offensive is if some random dude starts to commit crimes in front of minors. Perfectly fine. That's progress. That is the left.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I hope you guys understand that if we do not defeat the Democrat Party and extinguish them as a permanent minority force, they're coming for your kids. Big time. Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Most Shocking Installment of the Trans Insanity Yet?
I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier. So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
These cuts are not going to go after the delivering of care for VA in the in the first Trump administration. President Trump allowed vets to see private doctors.

I do love Calvin Coolidge. I got to be honest. Calvin Coolidge was awesome. He shrunk the size of government. Silent Cal, as they would call him. He dramatically tried to bring us back to the founder's vision of government.

And so that would be my list. And I could give you the worst ones as well. There would be some of the worst would be. I would say Ulysses S. Grant was no good. Joe Biden was definitely on the list.

Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
It's not a bad idea, but we'd need an amendment. The Constitution explicitly gives this power, and it derives from the old royal power where the right to pardon is just absolute. I mean, look, the pardon power has been abused by Republicans. It's been used by Democrats. It's not a bad idea. And, again, we have yet to do this. I've been saying this for months, and it's no one's fault.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
We still need to have someone come on the program and explain the Anthony Fauci pardons and the January 6th pardons. Can we wrap our head around the fact that Eric Swalwell is walking around with a preemptive pardon? They're just blanket pardons. And the Hunter ones are really bad, but the January 6th committee got preemptive pardons.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
OK, great questions, Anthony. Great to hear your voice. And you're a long term member. And I really appreciate it. Let me start with your first question. So as everybody should know, coming up on Tuesday is our Wisconsin special election. It is the Supreme Court seat and it will determine the future Wisconsin. And with it, it could determine the entire future of the U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
I mean, we've been in such a hurricane of news the last 60 days that we need to just kind of take a step back and say, timeout, timeout, timeout. Anthony Fauci got a preemptive pardon. Liz Cheney got a preemptive pardon. In the end, the check is for people to care enough about it and revolt in disgust. It's happened before at the state level.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
This is why southern states have pardoned boards and they got rid of pardons. because in Georgia and Texas, actually, governors don't have pardon authority anymore. It's literally just a pardon board. Great question. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here. The numbers don't lie. The impact that balance of nature makes every single day is astounding.

I actually I tried banana peel on my skin yesterday and it was really good. All kidding aside, do you know what's really good for skin and not aging? A couple of things. Saunas, getting lots of sleep, not drinking alcohol. And I have an extraordinary amount of olive oil in my diet. And I probably hydrate more than any person you've ever met.

House and potentially the presidency. It is an incredibly important election. President Trump has remade the Republican Party. He has remade the Republican Party to be a working class party, to be a low propensity party. So the answer to your question, Anthony, can be best described by the difference between a high propensity voter and a low propensity voter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
It's a phenomenal question. And the number one thing is prioritizing the Sabbath, is trying to always be home for the Shabbat and turning off my phone completely. Like tonight, turn off my phone. I'm not going to turn it back on until Sunday. And one real quality day of rest can make up for six days of travel. Also, I'm super blessed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
I'm able to design my schedule in a way where I am able to prioritize family time and staying very connected to them. I say no more than I say yes. And also, when we lived in Palm Beach literally for two months right after the election, and then we lived in Washington, D.C. for another three weeks, I brought the whole family with me, which was just awesome.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
I try not to travel for more than three or four days at a time. That's hard, obviously, at times, but it is a very good discipline and practice to be in. And no, I'm not Jewish, but I am writing my book Stop in the Name of God. I've spent a lot of time on that book this week. I'm making phenomenal progress.

All about how the Shabbat is a discipline that puts guardrails around my device usage and points us towards divine and eternal principles. And I work hard trying to save a future for my kids. And then, of course, on the Shabbat, I'm able to enjoy my kids and no work. Yeah, Blake puts in the chat, I can't talk to Charlie Friday night to Sunday a.m. That's true.

Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
Yeah, the first thing is we have to try to take over library boards. That's number one. Number two, very similar to school boards in that regard. It's a tough question. I don't quite know the solution. I will say this. Churches and synagogues should start developing their own libraries. I think churches have an unrealized opportunity to have a library type system that is non-woke and biblical.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
Churches have a lot of space. They could easily raise the money. They could get a ton of books from people that go to their church that either don't want the books anymore or are deceased. And you could donate them all there. And most university libraries are just garbage as well. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.

A high propensity voter is someone who watches more than one hour of news a week. A high propensity voter would consider themselves mildly political or very political. They read the newspaper. They go and talk to their friends about politics. They have some general awareness about what is happening in the news. Now, mind you, if you're a Charlie Kirk member, you're likely a high propensity voter.

But I'm going to put an asterisk on that just a second. I'm going to get back to that in a second. A low propensity voter are more people that are likely to be Trump. Now, it's not a matter of being, oh, high propensity voters are smarter or low propensity voters are dumber matters. Who cares more? High propensity voters tend to care about politics more than low propensity voters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
Low propensity voters tend to be black or Hispanic working class whites, people that are working with their hands. We call them the muscular class. on this program. Now, traditionally, Democrats dominated lower propensity voters and struggled with higher propensity voters. But a decade ago, actually, special elections used to be really good for Republicans.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
We used to do great in spring elections and fall elections and off-year elections, and we would struggle. in higher turnout elections. The way it used to be is the higher the turnout, the better for Democrats, the lower the turnout, the better for Republicans. That has completely changed because of President Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
Now, actually, the lower the turnout, the better for Democrats, the higher the turnout, the better for Republicans because the Democrats have become a high propensity party, more college educated, more suburban. More elite, more wealthy. The Republican Party has become a lower propensity party, more working class, not as wealthy, not as politically engaged.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
That is why they had to try to take out Donald Trump. That is why they were cheering for his assassination and they try to put him in jail for 700 years because he was a celebrity figure.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
And I was able to draw attention to lower propensity voters, give them a message and give them hope and expand the electorate and build a base that was never presented for a Republican candidate until President Trump came along to your second question. I don't know the details of the Rochester situation.

All I can say is this is that federal law enforcement is going to go into these communities, even if local enforcement says that ICE or the FBI are not welcome. We have federal supremacy in this country, and it's time for us to liberate these sanctuary cities from Tren de Aragua and these Mexican drug cartels that have been doing such damage in our country.

Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
So it's going to be hard. It's going to be difficult to completely remove some of these rogue judges. Potentially we can go through an impeachment process. The best way to actually put them in their place is through public humiliation. The best way is to have higher courts just scathe them for their decisions because so many of these judges—so many of these judges— They trade on reputation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
And all the while, if they are not able to lose their job or their judgeship, but if they kind of are considered to be a radical joke, a fringe laughingstock, then that is one very serious way that we can hold them accountable. I am a little hesitant on impeachment, to be honest. I don't think it's actually going to work. I don't think we have the votes.

The Charlie Kirk Show

I actually think that it could make embolden other judges to double and triple down. And so the best way is hopefully for a higher court to hurt their reputation and to show and expose the judicial despotism and the Article three. illegitimacy that we are living under right now. Thank you, David, for your question. Really appreciate it.
The Charlie Kirk Show

But the unelected judiciary is a major problem occurring in our country right now. Karen, thank you for being a member. Karen, where are you from and what's on your mind?

Wonderful. Thank you. You are the type of boomer that we love and we appreciate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
What a great question, Karen. So White House staff, so senior White House staff such as chief of staff or what is called assistants to the president's, They all have to go through a background check because they'll be dealing around what is classified potentially information, secret or top secret. So there is a hierarchy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
I believe it goes secret, top secret, and I think it was confidential secret, top secret, classified. So security clearances are granted to people all across the government. President Trump obviously gets the highest level of the security clearance regardless of any background check because he's the duly elected president. But you ask the most operative question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
Why do people still want security clearances when they're outside of government? So there's something called a T.S.S.C.I., which is a top secret sensitive compartmented information, which is a security designation that is the highest level of classified information. A T.S.S.C.I. One of the major reasons why people want to have a T.S.S.C.I. when they get out of government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
is they're able to trade on that for future cable news gigs, for nonprofit boards. It makes them more money because they're able to have some sort of an aura of professional confidentiality. And so the types of security clearances, it goes TSSCI. I was somewhat right. Then top secret, then secret, then confidential. The confidential allows information to classified as confidential.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 217: Woke Video Games? The Low-Propensity Switcheroo? Security Clearances?
So there is a hierarchy there. So the final thing is this. When you take someone like John Brennan or John Bolton that had a classified security clearance or they were still getting security briefings, when President Trump pulls that clearance, it makes it harder for them to make money on the outside and it severely damages their reputation. Great question, Karen. I hope that helped answer it.

We're off Thursday as we try to celebrate New Year's Day. One of my favorite days of the year is New Year's Day. There is some great football on. This New Year's Day, it's going to be amazing. Three big games. There's one on New Year's Eve, which is Boise State, Penn State. And then we wake up to watch Arizona State, Texas. And then Oregon versus Ohio State in the Rose Bowl.
The Charlie Kirk Show

This is your New Year celebration, and you should cherish that. You should celebrate in that. And one of the things we also did, we asked the question. Our theory of the case was this. It started with a question and then a hypothesis, which honestly a question, a hypothesis is at its core a question, which was we are beginning to see Young men show up to more and more of our campus events.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We're seeing a cultural recalibration. What if, at Turning Point Action and here on The Charlie Kirk Show, we do the most ambitious campus outreach, grassroots, viral programming in history? And we were told by all of the experts, young people won't move. They're going to go big numbers for Kamala Harris. And we said, not so fast. There is something that is happening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And we want to seize it, maximize it, expand it. So what we did, I visited personally 25 campuses this last fall. Well over 45 in the entire year. And we went all across the country. And our team deserves such amazing credit. Daisy, Emma, Ryan, Terrell, the whole tech team, Brian. We had a powwow, and they said, Charlie, you're really going to do 25 campus tours? This was back in August.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I said, absolutely. I said, this will be the hardest I've ever worked. On top of everything else, we hosted Donald Trump seven times this year. What an honor. Amazing. We were honored to host him seven times this year. to host him seven times. On top of all the people we were hiring for ballot chasing, on top of I had to keep on raising money to... keep people on payroll.

There's a lot of things going on at once. But I said, we got to get on campus. We got to communicate with students. And we have to try to demonstrate that our ideas are better. And boy, I'm a pretty healthy guy. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. I try to get a lot of sleep, turn my devices off, exercise almost every day, eat very clean.

Lost my voice twice. I mean, can we get, Ryan, can we go back just and get like a 20-second clip of my voice with the Megyn Kelly interview? The Megyn Kelly interview, I think, is a perfect little example. Andrew was my voice. I would text Andrew the questions to ask Megyn. He was my Aaron, if you will. I was Moses. He was Aaron. I just couldn't talk. I was tongue-tied.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And everybody on the team deserves credit here. We put it all on the line, and it was blind faith. In fact, I could tell you at no time when we visited these campuses and created this content and we did all this work, was there ever a prideful arrogance amongst our team. Andrew would tell you this. Mikey would tell you this. Justin would tell you this.

It was always, well, these are pretty incredible crowds. I hope we're going to win. Are we going to win? Every day we'd be challenging our assumption. Every day we'd be going into this with this degree of humility. Never cocky. And I'm very, very, very proud of our team for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Because looking back, it seems like obvious looking at it retrospectively that there was this grassroots movement and we just kept our head down and kept on doing the work. And we said, well, we're up in these polls. More campuses. More videos. On TikTok alone, which by the way, they want to ban TikTok.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
That one's going to be, that's a toughie. That's a tough one for Oregon. I got a whole separate take on how the college football playoff is rigged against the Oregon Ducks, despite being the number one seed. And then the nightcap is Notre Dame versus Georgia. Don't sleep on the Irish. I'll tell you right now, the Irish could shock the world. Georgia has their backup quarterback.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I think one of the reasons they want to ban TikTok is that I think TikTok played a big role in getting the message out that eventually led to the election of Donald Trump. I really believe that. We got 1.8 billion views on TikTok. Trump got 2 billion views on TikTok. We got five times more views on TikTok than Kamala Harris. Five times more. Now they want to ban it? Seems a little suspicious.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Just a little bit. Here's a little bit of a taste. It's about a two-minute video. It's worth playing of what we accomplished on campuses this last semester. It was 12 years of work. It was a 12-year overnight success story. Play cut 23. Tell us why you're supporting Kamala Harris. Not too sure about that. Why? OK, so right now, because she's not strong.

Can you tell me her greatest accomplishment? No, I can't. Can you tell me a single accomplishment? I cannot. I want to leave. What is Kamala Harris's greatest accomplishment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Name an accomplishment of hers.

What is her greatest accomplishment?

The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We cannot heal our country until we defeat the Democrat Party this November. My number one mission is to make Donald Trump go back into the White House in November.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I want to try to win you over as a liberal for Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
There's no guesswork in this election. We know the type of president that Trump was and that he will be. There are three things I want you to think about when voting for Trump. Homeownership, border, war. Three objective things. People remember the Trump years better because they were better.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Kamala Harris will destroy this country, bring us closer to World War III, allow 30 million illegal people into the country, and bring us to a Great Depression. Donald Trump will restore the American dream for your generation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Let's go! I'm talking to voters of this country that will determine the future of Western civilization. And what we did with the youth vote was incredible. When you guys believed in us, and this is not about Charlie, it's not even about Turning Point, it's about all of us in the audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Notre Dame's playing really well. Their defense is phenomenal. However, as all things are rigged in the favor of the University of Georgia, Georgia has a home game. I believe it's in Atlanta, actually. I think I'm 90% sure that the game is in Atlanta. And then if they win that game, then they go to a game in Miami, which is not far from Atlanta.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
When you guys prayed for us, you tithed towards us, you donated to Turning Point, you helped make this movement possible. A 30-point movement. Young men went for Donald Trump by nearly 20 points. We'll do another show on this in the new year, but I really believe if it wasn't for TikTok, it wouldn't be possible. I'm curious as a side note, what are your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Do you think the federal government should be able to ban TikTok? Because that is actually a looming issue. I'm just curious. And some people say, oh, Charlie, why do you care about the TikTok thing? I only care about what I can see. I know that I reached 1.8 billion people since March. We didn't even start until March. And remember, we were not TikTok fans until the ban happened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And we called their bluff. We said, okay, let's see what they're made of. Let's see. We're going to start posting if they don't censor us. And all of a sudden, our stuff started to go more and more viral. And we said, just treat us fairly. Just treat us fairly. And on Instagram, Daisy could pull the numbers. Billions of views on Instagram. But I'm curious.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I do want to hear from you on that, freedom at charliekirk.com. All of this was a combination of a grassroots emphasis. We look at this last year, and we have to just look at the hand of God, as we saw in Butler, Pennsylvania. When God's hand came down and spared President Trump his life. Spared President Trump. We were inches and centimeters away from total and complete civil war. Inches away.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Inches and centimeters away. And God is not done with the United States of America. God is not done with this nation. I'm going to give you an example. This was the one that kicked off in September. Our social media blitzkrieg, play cut 21.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And that was the one that began the viral cascade. And it really was and is a movement versus a machine. A grassroots, people-centered, citizen-led movement versus an oligarchic machine. Subject versus citizen. It's that simple. Do you want to be a subject or do you want to be a citizen? Very, very simple. We had a choice and you chose correctly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
You chose that you wanted to live in a free society. You chose that you wanted to live in a free America. Glory be to God for delivering this country from the brink. And for all of you that gave sacrificially and worked and went that extra mile and drove those eight hours to go knock on doors, this is your victory. And no, I'm not just going to move on to the news of the day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And then the national championship game is in Atlanta. Okay. But we wanted to take our time today, as this is the last and final broadcast of this monumental year, to reflect and to think about what we just went through. Take inventory of the past year. Recap it. What did we just live through? Let's just go back to a year ago. Our last broadcast of the year in 2023.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
That's the second hour. This entire hour is dedicated to saying thank you, to celebrating and understanding what we just lived through was not natural. It was not normal. It was supernatural.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Yeah, that was, by the way, that was on a good day. And it was rough. Let's just say that was rough. I remember when I sat down to do the show that day and I just checked in. Blake was like, oof. And I was making progress by that point. I was on the uptick. That was with the gain turned all the way up. I do have to say, the other big loser this year.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
was Blake's prediction that 2024 was going to be a boring year. I'm sorry, I just can't help but say it. Blake went on thought crime, and to his defense, he said, well, what if? But it's kind of one of those what if Blake things where he means it, but he kind of poses it as a question. He was hedging, but you knew Blake believed it. Turns out that was the worst take in Blake Neff history.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We will put that one up. We should have a list of the worst Blake takes. That was up there. But Blake has good takes almost all the time, especially on the Roman Empire, which we will continue in 2025. We were honored at Turning Point Action to host history. There was 18,000 people at this event. And yet, for whatever reason, I think over 500,000 people say they were there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
This is like when, what was it, when the Giants won the World Series on a walk-off home run. The old joke in San Francisco was, it was something like this. That, you know, it seated 22,000 people, but 2 million people say they were there. Everyone I meet in Arizona, you know, I was at that Bobby Kennedy event. There's no way everyone I meet was at the Bobby Kennedy event.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We were honored to help host this. Play cut 25.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I gotta be honest, that was one of the greatest moments. Look at how great that imagery is. That is just, that was honestly, we did seven major events with President Trump this last year, and I think that was the greatest. I mean, AmFest was unbelievable, and what an honor for the president to crisscross the country and to join us. But this was probably the greatest event.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I have to say, the Bobby Kennedy event was the greatest event of 2024. I'm going to end this hour as we recap just of how we reacted on election night. It went very viral, and this is with all of you. I get more feedback than this than anything else. Let's play Cut 19 as we heard the news that we took back our country. Play Cut 19.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
2023 looking into 2024, it looked daunting. I want you just to remember where you were, the news we were covering. It was incredibly daunting. Donald Trump was facing 700 years in federal prison. Donald Trump was not raising the money that major presidential candidates would be at that time. A year ago, we had not even had the Iowa caucus elected.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Thank you in this audience for those of you that prayed for us, that had our back, that supported us, that donated to us, that defended us, that traveled alongside of us, that came to our events. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. This is your victory. And 2024, we look back a year ago, we were at this daunting, overwhelming task, and we just took out our shovel and we got to work. Thank you.

A year ago, Ron DeSantis was still an active presidential candidate. A year ago, Nikki Haley was still an active presidential candidate. A year ago, Vivek Ramaswamy. We had this whole field of challengers against President Trump a year ago. We had not even gone through Iowa yet. A year ago, Ronna was still the chair of the RNC. A year ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Joe Biden was the betting odds favorite to become president of the United States. A year ago, Joe Biden was still the Democrat presumptive nominee. It was daunting and we were battle-hardened. After 2020, many of us became prisoners of cynicism and negativity. Almost everywhere I would visit, I would have to force people to try to believe. Yes, we can do it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
They said, oh, our vote doesn't matter. Our elections are rigged. And yes, a lot of you in this audience, I saved all of your emails. A lot of your emails. In fact, I could read them, but I don't know if it's a good use of our time. You guys would say, you don't know what you're talking about. We're going to lose no matter what. Don't embrace early voting. Nobody cares.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And in some ways I get that because you were such, you were held captive. You were a hostage of the carnage of 2020. What's the point in voting? It's all rigged. But I made a promise to all of you. I made a promise to all of you. A year ago, the last broadcast of 2023, I made a promise to Turning Point donors. I made a promise to our audience here on The Charlie Kirk Show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I made a promise to our millions of followers out there. I said no one will work harder than Turning Point Action and The Charlie Kirk Show. I said I will work. I said I will travel the country. I will go to every nook and cranny. We will register the voters. We will chase the votes. We'll get into the elemental grassroots. We're going to hire 1,500 people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We're going to do the gritty type of work. We made a promise. We made a proclamation that no one would work harder. We did not guarantee success, but I asked many of you, please allow yourself to believe. Allow yourself to believe that this is possible. Allow yourself to believe that we can do this. Allow yourself to believe that we can win.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And in some ways, the greatest challenge of 2024 was not even what we did. The greatest challenge was was getting people to think we could win. The biggest challenge was believing. The hardest part for us was not hiring 1,500 people or raising the tens of millions of dollars that required to have the largest full-time army to chase ballots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
The hardest thing was not visiting all the campuses or the 1.8 billion TikTok views, which by the way, Ryan, I want to do a whole thing on that in this hour because it was monumental, monumental what we were able to do. On TikTok this last year, 1.8 billion views on TikTok alone, not meant not to mention YouTube or Instagram.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
No, the hardest part of what we were doing and what we did this last year was getting everyday rank and file Americans to think that their vote mattered, that they need to fight and that Donald Trump can win. And think about it, it just seemed overwhelming. It just seemed as if there's no way we could defeat the beast. That the machine is undefeated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
That the Leviathan is going to pull something out of their sleeve. That there is something that was coming around the corner. And honestly, some of you were right when you said that. They did have a lot planned. But it just didn't fail. It didn't work. It failed. It required hope. It required faith. The greatest loser of 2024, the greatest loser was doomerism and cynicism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
The greatest loser were the thousands of you that would email us at times and say, Charlie, I'm not going to work. I'm not going to chase ballots. I'm not going to register voters because it's all rigged. Turns out you were wrong.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
It turns out those of us that believed enough to make it too big to rig, to hire the people, to chase the ballots, to get in the grassroots, to take over the precinct committee positions. That you actually can effectuate change. 2024 should be the death of doomerism and not believing that change is possible. We won the youth vote in the state of Michigan, everybody. We nearly won it in Wisconsin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We nearly won it in Pennsylvania. We moved the youth vote 30 plus points. But if you were to come to the table...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
with a belief system or a philosophy oh no it's impossible to to change things and the country's going to hell and there's no reversing it that mentality we were able to break with a lot of work it wasn't easy because in some ways the greatest opposition this last year was not of the left it was cynical people on the right donors that didn't think that trump could win
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Grassroots folks that thought it was irredeemably rigged. But Charlie, the machines. Voting early is terrible. Turns out voting early was actually excellent. Without voting early, we wouldn't have won. We were our own greatest enemy. And we worked, worked, worked. And we acted, acted, acted. Do you guys remember this last summer? This last...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
June, July, August, when every day I said find new voters and register new voters, you helped make this happen. And this audience has been the tip of the spear, the vanguard. Every single day I'd be giving these pep talks in July, be giving these pep talks in August. Guys, we only have 100 days left to register voters. And all of that made a difference.

And this year, this 2024, as we go through the individual elements throughout this hour, should be the end of saying that can't happen. No, it can't happen. You just witnessed and were part of the greatest comeback in American political history. And all the doomers, all the doomers, all the people that were overly negative, they were wrong. And those of us that believed were right.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
I believe that if the RNC was under current hands, if Rana still would have remained as chair of the RNC, I don't know if we would have won the cycle. And the RNC was a thankless fight. The RNC was a very difficult endeavor for us. We made a lot of enemies. In fact, the leadership of the RNC backstabbed me. They tried to destroy me. They leaked stories against me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
They did everything they could to try to take out Turning Point. Turns out they were very unsuccessful, quite unsuccessful. NBC News reported at the time conservative activist Charlie Kirk helped oust Ronna McDaniel at the RNC. Now the knives are out for him. Very few people were willing to take the stands and get in the arena. and to try to remove the proven loser, Rana McRomney.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And Rana McRomney remained as chair all after the 2022 midterms. But we said no. All through 2023, we knew she had to go. We knew that we needed to launch a grassroots campaign. Again, the president made the ultimate decision, and he deserves the credit for that. Removing Rana and then putting in Michael Watley and Laura Trump. A terrific, a monumental upgrade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We had so many people warning us against this fight. Charlie, this is a big fight for you. You're going to make a lot of enemies. I said, so what? People that were in business with me. People telling me that they knew better. Yeah, they didn't. Honestly, I'll never forget that. People trying to tell me that, oh, we know better than you and
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
No, actually, you were wrong, and this audience was right. The grassroots of this show was correct in saying, we have to remove Ronna McRomney. And we decided to ignore all the cautionary tales because we needed an RNC that was equipped to win. And by the way, the RNC run by Ronna, they did every dark arts, let's just say, move you could do to try to cancel us, to smear us,

And they spent more energy beating us than trying to beat Democrats. Well, it turns out the removal of Rana McRomney was critical. that the removal of Ronna McRomney was a foundational first step to the win we just had. And all of you that traveled to our Restoring National Confidence Summit in Vegas, do you have an idea of what we did?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
We were the only organization that was willing to plan our own RNC winter meeting simultaneous with the actual RNC winter meeting, which was the most brazen thing we could do. But we were not just going to sit idly by and allow this to happen. With 75 key GOP Republican chairs plus state chairs using our data, using our application. We were in Vegas doing that work.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And a lot of other organizations said, well, that's a little too close to the sun for us. We're afraid to pick that fight. Well, we weren't. We leaned right into the arena. And Rana got removed, which was a massive victory for the grassroots and dramatically improved President Trump's chances. And from there, a year ago, again, January of 2024, we still looked like a movement in exile.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Donald Trump won in Iowa, won in New Hampshire, but was he really going to be able to build this grassroots movement? It turns out that this year is a year that only happens once in many, many lifetimes. And we're going to recap a lot of other things. The campus tours, the virality, the selection of J.D. Vance as vice president of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
Butler, Pennsylvania, leading all the way up until the last 90-day push where all of you chased ballots, where all of you registered voters, where all of you in this audience said no to the naysayers and you got into the game. And this is a year that we'll never forget. And that we must cherish, we must remember, that we must reflect, we must go through.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Hand of God: Looking Back on a Magical Year
And of course, finally, we are going to say thank you to God. Because I believe the hand of God was evident and apparent all throughout this last year. That God had a plan and that we were just small little actors and instruments for his divine will and his purpose.

$100 billion in equipment left over, complete humiliation, one of the darkest days in American history. And I point to the Bush-Cheney junta for creating this mess in the first place. Are you ready to lose weight but not sure where to start? I understand. I was right where you are two years ago. Let me tell you why I chose the PhD weight loss and nutrition program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition. Her program is based on years of research and is science-based. Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition. There is so much more. They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change. And finally, a probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds. Look, they're amazing.

So good question. I'm curious. Are you pro gig economy or against? I'm guessing pro, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Got it. So you're two different things. Got it. So the gig economy is a completely separate issue than the H-1B thing. The gig economy is basically forced, not unionization, but benefits for people that are working as independent contractors, essentially Uber drivers. So we're talking about two different things. So the gig thing, President Trump hasn't really weighed in on much on that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
But President Trump definitely remains resolutely pro-American first when it comes to restricting the labor supply to be able to prioritize our workers first. We did an entire first hour on that. Does that make sense, what I'm articulating? Yeah, yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Are you in favor of that law or not in favor? I'm guessing not in favor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
I'm with you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Yeah, I'm with you. And President Trump, I don't think, has weighed in on that either way. But it is highly restrictive of part time work and people that are just trying to make ends meet.

Yeah, that's an interesting question. Actually, she is. She's more pro labor than Republicans past. That's going to be a really that's a that's a thoughtful and a profound question. I don't know. Obviously, the labor secretary serves at the pleasure of the president. But this California law is outrageous. I mean, I think it's completely out of control. It's a huge overreach.

And they say, oh, it's for good intentions, so on and so forth. But it is a mess, to say the least. Thank you. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Let's go to Maddie now. Maddie, thank you for being a member. What is on your mind? Members.CharlieKirk.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
I can. Yes. Hi, Scott. How are you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Yes, I mean, I'm sure they do some good work, but I hear almost nothing but complaints. I mean, one of our employees that works for us, who does a great job, phenomenal parent, father of four, they had DCFS called on him because his kids were playing in his driveway too close to the cul-de-sac that they were in. And one of his neighbors, who's super left-wing and super liberal, called DCFS.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
They had to hire a lawyer. They had to go through this whole process. They were threatening to take the kids away. I'm sure they do good work. I don't want to label an agency as all bad or all good, but I hear nothing but complaints. Do you agree with that, Maddie, that they are overzealous and overreaching, especially in some of the more liberal states?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Yeah, I mean, look, it's totally outrageous. It's insane. I do want to say, though, I have known of instances where DCFS really should take the kid away because they are being abused and they are being beaten and they're not able to do that. Those are rare, but you could admit those exist, right? There are parents that do abuse their kids. but I've seen it on the other extreme.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
I've seen it far more often being the situation of the government haggling and hassling good parents rather than trying to save kids from bad environments. But I'm sure they do that. I'm not saying that sarcastically. I'm sure there are plenty of instances where they operate correctly and they're able to take kids away from abusive environments. Thank you, Maddie. Great question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Really appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks. All right, Shane, thank you for being a member. What's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Oh, no, you're calling out Daisy. I will defend Miss Daisy, though. She was running a very good members experience at America Fest. So you got to cut us all a big thing of slack because we were running a huge enterprise there. But she will get back to you. So what else is on your mind, my friend?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Can you tell me where you live, what state you live in? I'm actually, I'm curious. Uh, I'm in Wisconsin. Wisconsin. Yeah. So actually, housing prices in Wisconsin have gone up, as you well know. Yes. I tracked that. So a couple things. Number one, the price of everything that goes into buying a home has gone up dramatically from windows to siding. concrete to the nails that have to be nailed in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And that is a byproduct of hyperinflation. So if President Trump is able to bring down inflation, which of course inflation is just very simple, more money than goods and services. When you have more money being pumped in than the growth of goods and services, you get inflation. You don't have to overthink it. That's just the basic equation. So the first of which is trying to lower inflation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
How do you do that? By bringing down energy costs and energy prices. Drill, baby, drill. Bring down the price of energy. That will help a little bit. But that's not the end-all, be-all. That's not the complete and total solution. Secondly, deportation of illegal migrants that you don't have to compete against illegals to buy homes or to at least have housing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Thirdly, which is a more controversial take, but I think we can all agree on this one, is that BlackRock and this $10 trillion company should not be able to come in and buy single-family homes when you yourself want to be able to buy a home. Fourthly, we have to bring down interest rates. We have to bring down the cost of money. You do that through a robust and growing economy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And by the way, interest rates go down when you no longer have inflation. Interest rates are the price of money, and you use that as a lever to try to restrict the money supply if you have too many dollar bills out there. If we can bring reflation into retreat, it gives us a signal to bring down interest rates. Now, let me just give you some Off the hand advice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And again, my friends, Andrew and Todd at andrewandtodd.com are the ones to talk to about. They did my home loan. They're amazing. They're phenomenal. But let me just kind of give you some advice. The minute interest rates start to go down, that is the point to actually go and buy because prices are only going to go up after that, if that makes sense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Because eventually once interest rates go down, they're going to go up even more. There's going to be this kind of low period where housing will stabilize and then it's going to skyrocket because demand is going to go up like a hockey stick. And then finally, hopefully working wages are going to go up thanks to President Trump. And it's really too bad.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Good people like yourself are at the outside looking in at some of the basic promises that you were given by your parents and grandparents. Oh, work hard. You'll be able to own a home. Save money. You'll be able to own a home. Unfortunately, that was a lot of deceit and misleading information given. Thank you, Michael. Thank you, Shane, for being a member. Really appreciate it. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Michael, thank you for being a member. Members.CharlieKirk.com, what's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
No, that's fair. And look, I love Vivek, and I think that is a very good reading of what he wrote. I think that the way people were gleaning it, of which you can based on Vivek's articulate tweet, which is that he was calling the American people mediocre.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And was also there's a fair amount of people that did spend their high school and college years enjoying themselves and not necessarily studying all the time. I'm not one of those people. I didn't go to college. I've just been driven since day one. So I kind of sympathize with a vague vibe here. However, not exactly wise to say that to the population because they say, wait a second.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Yeah, I wasn't spelling bee champion and I wasn't, you know, head of the math club. But I got my act together when I was 26, 27, and I'm not mediocre and I want to be better. And so the implication of a vague tweet can be, well, America sucks, therefore bring in foreigner. And I know that's not what you're saying, Michael, but can you understand how people read it that way?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
I agree with that. Well, and again, a lot of what Vivek's saying, there's some wisdom in what he was saying. I would have worded it a lot differently, and nor do I share a lot of the views in that tweet, but disagreement is what keeps a movement alive, keeps a movement fun. We are not like the board.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
We're not like the left, where we're just in complete harmony all the time, top-down, totalitarian. No, we have spirited disagreements, and that's what keeps our movement moving and sharp. Thank you.

In Virginia. Good question. In fact, we haven't talked about that governor's race. I don't know who's running now. It won't be Glenn Youngkin because governors term out. They only have one term in the state of Virginia. My advice to you is find your favorite candidate who's running in the primary. Get behind them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
I believe they have a delegate process where they all meet as a convention and they choose their candidates that way. But get involved in your state party. Get involved in your state party.

Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
That's a great question. So a lot of those issues are going to be state by state issues. The biggest thing we could do, first and foremost, is to cut government spending. We have to cut government spending. Because that will lower the rate of inflation and return more money into the pockets of the American people definitionally. Secondly, is we have to also lower the amount that we tax on wages.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
FICA tax, Social Security tax, Medicare tax. Do a working person's tax cut and get rid of FICA for people below earning a certain amount. So those are just some initial ideas. By the way, what you are talking about in Florida, flood insurance alone is more than people's mortgage payment for people that own property in Florida. It's outrageous. Thank you for being a member. Really appreciate it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
This will be our last question. My friends, Caleb and Michelle, they have a question about Shabbat and it was great seeing them at America Fest. Caleb, Michelle, what's going on?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Yes, and so to be very clear, what the scriptures say is that for six days you shall work and the seventh day you shall rest. Now, I still allow myself to watch college football on Saturday because it's not work. It is pure enjoyment, even though it's technology, but I'm not communicating. I'm not doing any work. So I love watching college football all the time. Number two, though, I love reading.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
I love reading on the Sabbath. I love journaling. I love reading. And then just going for a walk, having no phone and going for a walk. If you guys on this program, have not gone for a walk without a phone, you're missing out. I know that sounds extreme. When was the last time anybody on this program under the age of 35 went for a walk without a phone? It is amazing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
In fact, in the book, Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter, he talks about just a 20-minute walk without a phone literally changes your brain's plasticity. changes it, and it's more in touch with its environment, more present, less anxious, less neurotic. And so those are some of my favorite things to do. And I'm a big believer in the Sabbath.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Well, that's a smart question, Rosetta, and that's why you guys are the best audience in all of broadcasting because we've got to keep our eye on the ball here and keep the main thing the main thing, which is what if they try to lock up Donald Trump while he's president of the United States in the hush money stuff? That's still possible. It's unlikely, but it is very much possible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
That that judge, is it Juan Merchan? That is his name, Juan Merchan? Yeah. Could lock him up. I'd give that a low probability, Rosetta, but it's not impossible. It's not zero. You're right. He was never able to defend himself. And it's even more egregious than that. According to New York law, there's a very specific statute of limitations that I think was seven years old.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
They signed a law, or it was like five and a half years, they signed a law extending the statute of limitations because of COVID only to try to still get Trump. You're exactly right, Rosetta. It was a contortion, and they made it valid for one more year to be able to... come against you. Thank you, Rosetta. We've got to keep an eye on it. This is something that is increasingly serious.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And by the way, they want to be able to do it to prosecute Trump in an election year. Thank you. Okay, who do we have next, Daisy? No, Juan Merchan is not the next question. Trey, thank you for being a member. Members.CharlieKirk.com. What is on your mind?

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
That's great. Well, first of all, love the question, and thank you for being a member. Two thoughts. Number one, let's start with what I think the left is going to do. Number one, as far as how they're going to try to go after Turning Point or their outside groups, they're going to try to use state attorneys general against people like us. That's what they're doing to Bannon.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
They're trying to put Steve Bannon in prison on New York state charges. That's what they're trying to do. And so California, Massachusetts, they're going to be even increasingly weaponized against groups like ours, people like myself. I think we're going to be fine, but we have to be ready for that. Secondly, and you're starting to see this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
If the left was really smart, they would try to peel Elon Musk away from Trump world. That combination of world's richest man with most popular, famous man and powerful man. Look, there's three things that really are the web of influence. There's power, there's wealth, and there's fame. Between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, you have an overabundance of a supply of those three things.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
World's richest man, world's most powerful man, and the two most famous men on the planet. So those two then combine forces. It's an unstoppable movement to be able to bring this country back to greatness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
So what I think the left is going to try to do is have very – they haven't been too sophisticated yet, but I think they'll increase in their sophistication of psychological splinter operations to try to turn Elon against Trump or Trump against Elon. So we have to be very, very, very careful about that to try to keep –
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Keep those two very close and not allow those efforts to be successful in any way. They're already doing it, by the way. We're seeing it in real time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
They're trying to run that play to try to create daylight because that combo factor of Elon and that whole group that he represents and Trump and obviously his movement and those together, that is an American restoration likes of which we could never have imagined. The chapter leadership question.

Hello.

Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
What is on your mind? Yes. How are you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Thank you. Probably not. However, you can make an argument. But that's actually an interesting thing. So malnourishing a child is definitely child abuse. Feeding them too much. I mean, I don't want to grow government to be that much in the sense where we're over-policing child's BMIs. But you can make an argument that it is equally as damaging.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Not equally, but not as, but very damaging to a child to be type 2 diabetic by the time they're 8 years old. And that is completely on diet and choices made by the parents. There's an incredible conversation Tucker Carlson recently had on his program with Dr. Mark Hyman. And Dr. Hyman said he was once working as an ER doctor, as a nurse.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And this woman came in with her baby who was 10 months old and was drinking some brown liquid. He said, what is the baby drinking? She said, oh, it's Coca-Cola. The baby loves it. 10 months. At 10 months. And you have to wonder, I mean, is that child abuse? I mean, it's on the line, right? Like giving a 10 month year old Coca-Cola. It is definitely bad parenting to let your child become obese.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
And we want to be sympathetic. We have allowed companies to make addictive, hugely unhealthy foods. And we serve these foods in public schools. So we can't put this all on parents that said we believe in responsibility. Even though it's not criminal abuse, it is definitely culturally indefensible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
So, look, we have to address the root causes with the government, and I think Bobby Kennedy is going to do that. And I'd rather it be cultural pressures and stigmas than the government. That is why Ozembic should not come on the Medicaid schedule. We should not just say to kids, oh, yeah, just take your shot of Ozembic once a week. No, it is about lifestyle. It's about movement.

Great, great question. Let's thank you for that. So let's first start with Iraq. Iraq did not attack us on 9-11. Saddam Hussein was a completely separate issue. It was largely unrelated. It was within the genre, I guess you could say, of bad men in the Middle East. But Saddam hated al-Qaeda. In fact, Saddam was constantly at war with Iran, and it was a sovereign country.

We should never have invaded Iraq. That was a reach too far. And remember, the invasion of Iraq happened two complete years after 9-11. That was in early 2003 that we invaded Iraq. When it came to Afghanistan, the invasion of Afghanistan is different than what we actually did in the first couple of weeks. After 9-11, we went in with incredible precision.

So we had a couple thousand-person fighting force, very similar to what Eric Prince would talk about, of people that did not require major tank assistance, did not require nation-building-type auxiliary support, that was just going through the hills of Afghanistan, finding the bad guys, and killing them. Where I think what we should have done is had a very agile...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
thin and covert fighting force with air support all throughout the Middle East and found bad guys and killed them. Very similar, Bob, to what I might add of how Donald Trump took out ISIS. You see, that is a lesser talked about element of Donald Trump's first term. Donald Trump took out ISIS. How did he do that? Well, he didn't do that with 250,000 ground troops.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
He did it with a Green Beret unit here, a drone strike there, an F-16 there. Very targeted, very precise. Instead, we went all in on an antiquated, expensive, and costly version of warfighting, which is that we are going to liberalize Iraq and Afghanistan and turn them into Indiana and Alabama.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
That was foolish, that was dumb, incredibly costly, and no one doubts that there should have been a response after 9-11. In fact, the first couple weeks after 9-11 was actually our most effective, where after three weeks we did a lot, after 20 years we had very little show for it, and now we see, of course, the disaster.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
He said, oh, I'll accept this flight, but not future flights and none of your other demands. and President Donald Trump said, sorry, not good enough for us. We will proceed as planned. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been incredible throughout this process, by the way. He was 10 out of 10 yesterday, and Marco Rubio deserves a lot of credit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
He was behind the scenes, kind of being a little bit of good cop. Understand, Marco Rubio speaks fluent Spanish. So while this was ongoing... Marco Rubio was likely, I can almost say certainly, I don't have this factually known, but on the phone speaking Spanish to the Colombian government saying, are you guys out of your mind? Are you out of your mind? What are you doing exactly?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
President Donald Trump has come in with salvo, salvo, salvo. An economic tomahawk missile is what he was doing. And Marco Rubio was diplomatically speaking to them as the Secretary of State, of which he should do, by the way, saying, you guys are loco. Muy loco. Stop it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
So far, 2,681 terrible criminals, hardened, the worst of the worst, have been rounded up. And are being sent back to their country of origin. Now, this is a very important point. The country of origin element requires a little bit of diplomacy and a little bit of creativity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
So the Colombian government, for about a three to four hour period thought, and I have a theory as to why, that they could win this standoff. The Colombian government was probably getting some advice by American-funded NGOs or Democrat senators or staff or some allies or associates saying, dig in. You can be the international resistance. This is our moment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
And the argument that people like AOC were making on Twitter, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, was that Americans really want their coffee, their Colombian coffee, and this will break them. Listen. First of all, there's other countries that we get coffee from, number one. Number two, Colombian coffee isn't that good. Number three, if Americans want coffee, Colombians want a lot more than just coffee.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
They are wholly dependent on the American economy. So they tried to dig in. So what did President Trump do? He started implementing the policy. This is where it got to be so, so smart. Where President Donald Trump started to actually implement his threat. The U.S. embassy in Bogota started issuing visa cancellations in real time. President Donald Trump said effective now will be a 50% tariff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
You guys want to play around? You think you can stand up to us? By the way, let's be perfectly clear. What was our ask? For those out there that say, oh, you shouldn't just bully other countries. Hold on a second. What was our ask? Were we saying that we wanted access to their natural gas or minerals? No, it was a very crisply delivered inquiry. Will you take back your people that you sent to us?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
They belong to you. These are Colombian passport holders. These are passport holders of the Colombian government. Not that complicated. And just think about this for a second. Columbia is refusing to take their own people. Carrie Lake from Voice of America, as she assumes leadership there, she should again, she's kind of the international media arm of the American government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
If I'm a Colombian citizen and I travel to Germany and I get in trouble in Germany, will the Colombian government receive me in return? The rank and file Colombian citizens should be outraged about this. That their own Colombian government won't take their own citizens when they're returning. That their own Colombian government will say, sorry, you're not allowed back into your homeland.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
If that's not a breakdown of the social contract, I don't know what is, but we know what's really going on here. We know what's going on. That these are bad hombres. These are the worst of the worst. and Gustavo Petro, the socialist who runs Colombia, He's upset that he now has to take care of his own people. Guess what? Playtime is over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
America is no longer the dumping ground of the third world. Now, I will say the Democrats would have a really strong point here. The Democrats would have an overwhelmingly strong point here if all of these leaders were celebrating the return of these people. If Gustavo Petro would like throw a parade when these people landed in Bogota,
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
You'd say, OK, maybe the Democrats were not right, but at least they have a strong argument. that these people are worthwhile having in a country. No, it's the opposite. They're doing the opposite of a parade. They're doing a blockade. They're trying to block the entrance of their own citizens to come back into their country. They want nothing to do with them. They want no association.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
There are four people in particular that I want to point out of just kind of the example of the individuals that have been arrested, the first of which here on WhiteHouse.gov. This person was arrested in Buffalo, New York, with suspected ties to the ISIS terrorist organization. Next person was arrested in Los Angeles by ICE, Immigration's Customs and Enforcement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
They believe them to be dangerous existential threats to their country. So President Donald Trump starts to implement This policy. And the president of Colombia probably said, oh, I'm going to be this stubborn person. In fact, he said, if you've ever met somebody stubborn, I am the most stubborn person that you could possibly meet. President Donald Trump says, again, we're America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
You're Colombia. We have cities that are wealthier than your entire country. We're done. And within hours, the knee was bent. Terms of surrender were brokered. And just like that, in one day, Colombia and Gustavo Petro conceded to every single demand of the United States government. This is big, everybody. This is big. We have not seen a president act like this in my lifetime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
George W. Bush would never do this. Barack Obama and Biden, of course not. But the entire Biden staff, what Donald Trump did was mean. And more importantly, what Donald Trump did was masculine. The Biden regime was one of toxic femininity. Feelings based. We can't offend the Colombian people. We can't tell them what to do. They might get upset with us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
No, the new ascendant masculine energy that is taking over the federal government in the best possible way is, no, no, we call the shots. We're not going to allow our country to be a dumping ground. Playtime is over. Dad is home. The statement writes is this last evening. After all of this, the six steps, Trump sends the flights. They refuse. Trump issues the threats. They dig in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Trump implements the threats and then they capitulate. It is full capitulation. Quote, the government of Colombia has agreed to all. President Trump's terms, including the unrestricted acceptance of all illegal aliens from Colombia returned from the United States, including on US military aircraft without limitation or delay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Based on this agreement, the fully drafted IEPA tariffs and sanctions will be held in reserve and not signed unless Colombia fails to honor this agreement. Let me just pause. This is a sword of Damocles hanging over the Colombian government. They have to accept all of the narco criminals, all of the child sex traffickers, all of the illegals, or else tariffs will be issued at any time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
The visa sanctions issued by the State Department and enhanced inspections from Customs and Border Patrol will remain in effect until the first plane load of Colombian deportees is successfully returned.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Today's events make clear to the world that America is respected again, and President Trump will continue to fiercely protect our nation's sovereignty, and he expects all other nations of the world to fully cooperate in accepting the deportation of their citizens illegally present in the United States. We are behaving like a country with dignity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
We took decades of abuse because we were ruled by people who hate Americans. And Gustavo Petro just happened to be in the middle of it. And now you better believe. That there are meetings happening all across the region. In fact, we have this document from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation from Honduras.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
for being an MS-13 gang member wanted for murder. Oh, that's nice. He's just walking the streets. Joe Biden never cared about rounding these people up. The next guy just walking the streets of Seattle was convicted for the rape of a child. Next guy walking the streets of New Orleans convicted of sexual abuse and kidnapping. 2,681 people arrested.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
An urgent, extraordinary meeting of presidents and heads of states of CELAC, which I believe is the Council of Latin American Countries. And agenda items, agenda items, migration environment and Latin American and Caribbean unity. In this regard, it is reported that said meeting has scheduled in a hybrid format.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
It is also worth noting that His Excellency Gustavo Petro Urego, president of Colombia, incoming PPT of SELEC, has confirmed his participation in this call and the Caribbean, which includes Haiti. So all of the regional actors are now meeting today saying, oh my goodness, we have to accept our own people. We have to accept our own people that we tried to dump on America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
I want you to just to think how perverse and sick this is, that these countries are freaking out, that they have to steward their own people. They thought that they could just leave them at the doorstep of America. They thought they could dump them into your neighborhoods, dump them on your college campuses where they murder people like Lakin Riley and Rachel Morin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
They thought they could dump them into the interior of the United States. And now all of a sudden it's coming back. They're coming back and they don't know what to do about it. What is the counter argument from the Democrats? Well, here's the great J.D. Vance, who was just phenomenal this weekend. He's looking more and more like he might be the 48th president of the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
As J.D. Vance clearly says, we don't have to have the dumbest immigration in the world. We are back, everybody. We are back. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here with New Year's resolutions.

I have a non-sarcastic, provocative question. What do they teach in these schools of diplomacy and statecraft? What is it that they actually teach in the Woodrow Wilson School of Diplomacy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Here in Washington, D.C., where we are doing this broadcast, you have George Washington, you have Georgetown, where you have people that study to become diplomats. What exactly is taught in these schools? Because President Donald Trump just upended all of the established order, and he made fools out of all of them. The experts were losing their mind yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
President Donald Trump is trying to start a trade war. They are so short-sighted, and they're still criticizing it. Well, that was unneeded drama. That was unneeded pandemonium. That was unnecessary upheaval. No, it was a necessary public example, and now all these other countries are going to have to take their own people. Now, to be honest, I understand...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
The argument, if we were sending Nicaraguans to Colombia, that would not be a morally clear argument. I would get that. I would understand the argument if we were sending Mexicans to Brazil. We're sending people back to their own country, the country they were raised in, the country that they were schooled in, the country they are citizens of.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Now, once they're arrested, they're quickly processed and sent back to their country of origin. And that is where things got very interesting over the weekend. The return to their country of origin. Now, Tom Holman, President Trump, and the entire immigration squad, Stephen Miller, have designed a plan to be able to deport millions of people that are here illegally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
And so for all of the international diplomatic corps expert class, What exactly are you experts in? You're experts in appeasement. You're experts in bending the knee because they actually do not have any perspective to protect America at all costs. These diplomats, it's not as if they're dumb. It's as if they don't actually want America to succeed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
What this does is it suggests that diplomacy is mostly fake. They have fake expertise. That is exactly what I wanted to get at. Is that all of this schooling, all of this time in colleges, all of this time where they're pretending that they're working in the State Department. What really matters is instinct, very basic rules of interaction, and the most important thing, the will.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
A common theme here on The Charlie Kirk Show. Do you have the will to do what is necessary? The feminine, toxically feminine perspective is to, well, we don't want to offend people, and I guess Colombia is a country, and well, why don't we just keep their rapists and their criminals and their child sex traffickers? Whereas President Trump says, this is stupid. Why are we putting up with this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
We're not going to get ripped off. We're not going to do stupid things. You look out for your own country and your own people, and you don't need... to be a lifelong State Department diplomat. So for all of these lifelong State Department diplomats, I hope you guys understand that you have no credibility in the eyes of the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
The same way that we lost such credibility for public health officials during COVID, the same way that we lost credibility for people like Fauci and Birx, the same way that we lost credibility for all of the six feet to stop the spread and wear a mask when you shower, we are now...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Losing credibility for all of our permanent State Department court, diplomatic court, for Anthony Blinken, for even some of the Kissinger stuff. I mean, all of the criteria that has been built for diplomacy has just been upended in the last 24 hours. It has all changed. It is a permanent stark contrast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
What they're experts in is deteriorating borders, weakening the currency, and allowing a bunch of foreigners into the country. Okay, that doesn't take a lot of skill. What you just saw an amazing display of was President Trump rolling back the Great Reset.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Was President Trump rolling back all of this globalist push that was authored by, that was written by, that was published by the permanent State Department Corps. The same people that brought you the Iran deal. The same people that brought you the Russian-Ukrainian war. the same people that brought you all of the major conflicts, the Iraq war, the conflict in Libya, the conflict in Syria.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Here you have a guy who was once president, a billionaire businessman, who broke every single rule of Washington yesterday, threatened tariffs, implemented tariffs, revoked visas, said we're going to put on sanctions. Every established dogma of D.C. was upended in the last 24 hours. And he won not just a little bit, a triumphant, full capitulation, absolute bend the knee surrender.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
He broke all of the rules and it worked. So what does that say about the rules? Maybe these couple thousand professional State Department diplomatic corps that we always kind of bow to as if they're the ones that keep us safe. They're all frauds. They're all fake frauds.

So they started to round up people from Colombia, put them on an airplane and sent them back to Colombia. But the leadership of Colombia in Bogota, the cross-dressing Marxist terrorist by the name of Gustavo Petro, said, no, we are not going to receive these people that we sent out of our country that are making America more dangerous, less safe and a harder place to live. He's tried to dig in.

How lucky are we to have J.D. Vance as vice president? Now, just for fun, I had to kind of go back in my email inbox just to make sure I remembered the arc. We went all in for J.D. Vance for U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Senate when it was unpopular. When people would call us names. We went all in for J.D. Vance for the U.S. Senate on like day one. And we used to get hundreds of angry emails of people who thought they knew better than us. J.D. Vance is the worst. You should be endorsing other candidates. Why are you behind JD Vance? We should actually look.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
I think JD Vance joined the program at least 10 to 15 times, at least. In fact, the running joke is that I talked to JD Vance more on the show than off the show during the campaign. JD Vance was on the program all the time. In fact, his very famous cat lady remark, one of which was said on our program. We recognized his gifts early on. I saw the talent and I said, this is the guy, this is the one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Now, I don't have a lot of gifts, but one of the gifts that I do have is spotting talent early. I have a tendency to be able to do that. And I could go through the list of some of the people, and you guys know the names, but from Ana Paulina on, a lot of the most talented people in the conservative movement got their start in the kind of turning point ranks. And we liked him early.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
But he's become so much better since then. And Blake's reminding me, including my wife, by the way. I interviewed her for a job and I said, I think I'm going to move you up in what you're interviewing for. J.D. Vance has become such a warrior for our cause in the past six months. J.D. Vance sat down for his first lengthy interview with CBS News. Margaret is her name. Now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
I wouldn't actually know her name was Margaret if it wasn't for J.D. Vance's very infamous I don't care, Margaret exchange and quip. But let me just press pause and say J.D. Vance is acting and looking like the vice president that Donald Trump needs, the vice president that Donald Trump deserves. And maybe beyond that, even the 48th president. We're a long way from that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
We shouldn't even think or talk too much openly about that. But he's a rock star. He gave an amazing speech at the March for Life. He very quietly was working the phones to, of course, make sure that Pete Hegseth became the Secretary of Defense. He is loyal. He's smart. He's capable. He's humble. He's phenomenal. And what an upgrade from what we had during that last administration, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Here's J.D. Vance with Margaret from CBS News. She's trying to think what is the best one to play here. Let's just do the longer one. Let's play cut two.

He has a superpower. And I could tell you somebody who does this for a living, who debates all the time. I debate professors. I debate college kids. Whoever wants to come up. He has a superpower. that I have to work hard towards achieving. And it seems as if he has this natural, he has like that natural Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth swing.

It's just, you look at it, you say, wow, that is, it's like Wayne Gretzky. When you saw Wayne Gretzky on ice, you're like, okay, he works his tail off, but there's something that he was born with that you can't coach. It's called talent. JD Vance has a superpower that,
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
where he is able to remain remarkably calm, as if his heart rate is uninterrupted, as if he's on beta blockers, measured, despite hostile, incoming, enemy, inquisition, and fire. I'm telling you, that is next-level stuff. He is able to stay cool, calm, collected in almost an effortless way. Watching J.D.

So here's the steps. It's about six steps that occurred on Sunday afternoon. You might have been watching the Washington Redskins versus the Eagles or the Bills and Chiefs. Don't get me started.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Vance debate, because it basically does become a debate, let's be honest, be interviewed by Margaret Brennan is like watching Michael Jordan in Game 6. You just can't teach that. Let's put up a screen on Margaret Brennan. This is the face of liberalism in America. Angry. Nasty. She looks pleasant. And she got so outclassed by J.D. Vance. I mean, it's just a completely different level.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
It's like a kid on the varsity high school basketball team trying to go up against Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. It's not the same category. It's such a category difference. And Margaret really thought that she got him because she's got a bunch of 26-year-old kids. Ivy League educated producers. Ooh, we're going to own J.D. Vance. Say that we're a nation of immigrants. You think that's the first time J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
's ever heard that? J.D. continued with this interview. Let's play Cut 13.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Margaret has become a meme. Because in one of the segments, J.D. Vance says, I don't care, Margaret. He is able to be so firm when it comes to the policy positions of the Trump administration, defend it eloquently and smoothly, while also being incredibly likable and appealing. Getting behind J.D. Vance in 2000 and what was it, 21? Yeah, that's right. 2021, we endorsed J.D. Vance very early.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
It's kind of like buying Bitcoin in 2013. A lot of upside. It's a lot of upside. People hear him and go, wait, this guy is great. He got vilified so much earlier. And it's got even better. And everyone around me knows how much I believe in J.D. Vance. I mean, I went all out twice for him, first on the Senate thing and then on the vice presidential selection.

And do you know who deserves the credit here? President Donald Trump deserves the credit for selecting him as the vice president. It was an incredibly risky, unconventional, rule-breaking move. There was so much pressure against that choice. And he did it. The establishment was against him. The Uniparty was against him. And President Trump trusted his instinct.

And Senator, you deserve a lot of credit for that, though, of really setting the pace and setting the standard of what we wanted to see and what productivity we wanted to see out of the U.S. Senate. So, Senator, I want to now go to a separate topic here. which is talking about the California to Florida disasters. I know that there's a big contrast here between what we're seeing in California.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Why is it that Florida is able to have such efficient, rapid response to hurricanes, and California seems it can't get out of its way when it comes to dealing with natural disasters?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
I think that is so well put. What is your reaction to the president who wants to kind of change up FEMA, who wants to change the way that FEMA has done? As someone who's dealt with FEMA and been in the weeds, what is the better way that we could run the Federal Emergency Management Authority or agency?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
to be able to send illegals back to their countries of origin. Now, of course, this is obvious, but it's worthy of repeating. We are the incumbent superpower. We are the strongest country on the planet. We are the world's reserve currency status. People want to invest in our nation. You have Saudi Arabia saying we're going to go spend $600 billion to try to win favor with President Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
What a wise point. So, Senator, I saw another tweet from you that I want to make sure we mention in our time together here. You are enthusiastically supporting our mutual friend Vivek Ramaswamy for governor of Ohio. I agree with you on that. Tell us why you think Vivek will make such a great governor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Senator, I completely agree. And I'm behind Vivek Ramaswamy in whatever he does. And so I think he'll make a terrific governor of Ohio. Last point here, I want to dialogue with you, Senator, is this Colombian story the last 24 hours. It's a very simple ask. You have to accept the people that were released from your country, which illegally entered our country, back into your country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
What do you make of President Trump upending all of the traditional diplomatic rules and achieving a major accomplishment and victory for the American people?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
We are the desirable market. Under Joe Biden and previous Democrat presidents, We haven't acted that way. We've acted as if we are equal with Colombia. We are not equal with Colombia. I have a lot of respect for the Colombian people. I'm sure it's a beautiful country. But America is not on an equal footing of Colombia. They are a subservient nation to the United States of America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
No, and that's not an exaggeration. I mean, he is responsible for the death of hundreds of Colombians. He's also a Marxist and deeply unpopular. I don't think he's going to last beyond this. Senator, thank you for your leadership. Looking forward to having you on with some regularity. And again, it was wonderful to celebrate with you at the White House to see Pete Hegseth get sworn in.

Economically, militarily, in every possible conceivable way. We hold all the cards. So you would think... that when the world's largest nation, when the superpower comes knocking and says, you're going to accept these couple dozen, that's all it was, which was a couple dozen criminals back into your country, Colombia would say, sir, yes, sir, whatever you need.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Because the Colombian economy is largely dependent on trade, commerce, and immigration with the United States of America. Almost all of Central and South America is dependent on friendly relationships with our nation. We are still the richest. We are still the most desirable place to put and deploy capital. Their muscle memory was based on the Biden regime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
What do you mean we have to accept all these criminals? We're an equal nation as you. OK, so here's the six steps that occurred. Step one, Trump sends the flights. Step two, President Gustavo Petro says, no, we're not going to accept them. Now, step three is worthy of a lot of time. We're just going to press pause and read this piece by piece because it was a master class.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
You see, President Donald Trump had a decision to make. He could engage in private diplomacy or a public example. In this particular instance, a public example was the only move. Now, mind you, private diplomacy very well would have worked equally as effective. But why is it that President Donald Trump decided to escalate this situation so quickly, so rapidly with such overwhelming economic force?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
The reason being is that if Colombia started playing games, then Nicaragua might start playing games. And Honduras might start playing games. And Panama might start playing games.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
And you would have a regional resistance domino theory where all of these Central and South American countries would think that they could play games with the United States of America and Colombia was a perfect country to make a public example of it. First of all, their leader is literally a cross-dressing Marxist terrorist who was responsible for the death of hundreds of Colombians.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
And so President Donald Trump decided to escalate. And the Colombian leadership was probably so taken aback. The equivalent would be that if you're just kind of at a 1 out of 10 and President Donald Trump went to a 9 out of 10 right out of the gate. This shows how well prepared the administration is. was when they came in, how well prepared this team was.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Columbia's president assumed he could just say no. No, we're not going to do this. But this new Trump administration was ready, able, willing, prepared. There was a list of actions that they were ready to take once a leader was done enough to F-A-F-O. And I'm going to read this entire statement. Truth Social post from President Trump, because it is so smart and so strategic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
And you better believe any of the other actors in the region that were even thinking of resisting Honduras, Guatemala, Belize, Ecuador. They were watching the Colombian master class example. Oh, boy, I don't know if I want that. And Colombia became the momentary center of gravity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
It became the center of emphasis of all focus where all the other regional countries were watching and saying, okay, Colombia, you want to pick a fight with the superpower? I mean, Colombia, I don't think they have a navy. It's not exactly a fight that they're going to win. And this would never escalate to military conflict. But economic conflict, they are beyond a subservient nation.

I mean, they're barely a second world nation, almost a third world nation. They're right on the edge. Certainly not first world. And I'm going to read what President Trump authored because it sent a message not just to that freak who's the president of Colombia. but to every other nation. This is not just about bullying other countries or starting flights.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
This is about not getting taken advantage of and not being the dumping ground of the third world. Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier. So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule.

And I want you to listen carefully because we're going to go through word by word. This was not just something that President Trump sent off on a whim in a golf course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
This is something that President Trump sat down with his team and they thoughtfully had waiting in their back pocket. They had all of this ready. And they said, OK, who's going to be the first country to resist us? Who's going to be the first country to say that you're not going to accept your own people? And just time out, time out, time out. Hold on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
If Colombia was willing to risk their entire economy over a couple dozen migrants, that shows you how dangerous these people actually are. Secondly, I thought these were the most wonderful people. These are dreamers. They make our country stronger. It exposes the big lie about mass migration. Countries do not want these people.

In fact, I'm going to get into the Haiti example later, which is just so delicious. Do you know that the Haitian president says the return of Haitians to his country will destabilize his country? Yeah, that's the point. Thank you for making our argument for us. Oh, so the return of Haitians back to Haiti will destabilize Haiti. Huh. I thought that these were future Elon Musks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
I thought these people that were going to split the atom and they were going to create chat GPT. President Donald Trump wrote, this is so smart from him. I can't put this into words. Even President Trump's critics and skeptics said this is next level. Joe Biden would never do this. Barack Obama, George W. Bush. This is creativity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Stones, spine, direction, President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social. I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States with a large number of illegal criminals were not allowed to land in Colombia. This order was given by Colombia's socialist president, Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Petro's denial of these flights has jeopardized the national security and public safety of the United States. So I have directed my administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliatory measures. Again, this was not something that was just authored on a whim. This was President Trump's four years of thinking that he was able to deploy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Emergency 25 percent tariffs on all goods coming to the United States in one week. The 25 percent tariffs will be raised to 50 percent. A travel ban and immediate visa revocations on the Colombian government officials and allies and supporters. Pause. This means all of the oligarchs of Colombia, all of their drug criminals, they're not going to be able to visit their yachts in Miami.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
They're not going to be able to go shopping on Fifth Avenue. They're not going to be able to go to Beverly Hills. What President Trump did with the travel ban and immediate visa revocations is so smart because he was going after the economy, the tariffs, and then he's going after the lifestyle with the oligarchs. And so all the oligarchs are probably working the phones.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
It's a big fight. As you know, there are arrests occurring and deportations happening in real time. Hardened criminals, the worst of the worst, are being rounded up. Child sex traffickers, rapists, drug criminals, smugglers are being rounded up in large numbers and they are being deported. However, we must now talk about that next piece, deported to where and deported how.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Petro, what the heck are you doing? I got kids that are going to University of Miami. I got kids at Georgetown. I got kids at Harvard. And I can't go visit my kids. What he went for is the lifestyle of the ruling class, of the Colombian elite, which created internal turmoil. He continues, visa sanctions on all party members, family members, and supporters of the Colombian government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
Sorry, Miss Petro, which, by the way, is like some sort of a trans person, apparently. I don't know. You're not allowed to go shopping anymore in downtown New York. You're going to have to go to Paris. Continuing, enhanced customs and border protection inspections of all Colombian nationals and cargo on national security grounds. This, by the way, I think this one should hold.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
This is his not so subtle way of saying, I'm going to find every little sliver of cocaine you maniacs are trafficking into Houston. This is his way of saying, I am going to choke point and publicize that you guys are narco criminals that are poisoning the American body politic. This is code.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
This struck at the absolute core of the Colombian drug trade, which is a huge part of the black market of the Colombian oligarchs. This is where it gets really aggressive. IEPA treasury, banking, and financial sanctions to be fully imposed. Essentially, you can't transfer money into the United States. All those remittances, not going to happen. These measures are just the beginning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
We will not allow the Colombian government to violate its legal obligations with regards to the acceptance and the return of criminals they forced into the United States. So at this point, the president of Colombia had a decision to make after all of these tariff threats. And the president of Columbia, I think, got some really bad advice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's Foreign Policy Masterclass
My gut is that some Democrat politicians or allies were advising the president of Columbia, be the resistance, hold the line, call it a blockade. Yeah, I don't think that was a good idea.

Senator, you have some thoughts here about young men and younger voters kind of parlaying off of what I was talking about. Your thoughts.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
I completely agree. And so for a young 17 and 18 year old man, you know what it's like to be that age. The last thing they want is someone who is not their mom, but is coming in and telling them, hey, it's terrible that you exist and it's terrible that you have white skin color. It doesn't work. So, Senator, I do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
That's exactly right. Senator, I want to draw our audience's attention to some of the special elections in Florida. They're getting a lot of attention. We're being outspent significantly. What are the two special elections and why do they matter?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
And these special elections can sometimes sneak up on us. It is an R plus Trump 30 district. It is pure turnout. Is that correct, Senator?

He's been incredibly critical of the Democrat Party since the election in November. Ezra Klein previously created a thing called Wonk Blog at the Washington Post. Later, he founded Vox alongside people like Matt Iglesias. He perfectly represented the white male millennial era of the Obama era. It was very smug.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
It is truly pure turnout. Let's put 109 up on screen here. This is from Jake Shermer from Punchbowl. Just a massively stunning cash disparity in Florida 6, where there will be a special next week to replace Mike Waltz. Democrat Josh Weil raised $9 million and has $1.2 million cash on hand. Republican Randy Fine raised $987,000 and has just $92,000 on hand.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
Senator, how is it possible that we keep on getting outspent so significantly here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
What part of Florida is this again? I mean, some people don't even know their congressional district. Remind people, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
Yes, we do. Senator, give us the latest update from Capitol Hill as far as the schedule for second tier nominations and also the one big, beautiful bill.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
And the spending cuts, where are we at with the Doge recommendations? And I know those negotiations are ongoing. What is the latest update there?
The Charlie Kirk Show

It was overconfident, in part because they thought that left-wing victory was completely inevitable. If you listen to Pod Save America, it is for those guys that just talk about how right they are the entire time.

The fiscal calamity that we are experiencing is immense. And the lack of Washington, D.C. 's appetite to cut spending and get down to baseline budgeting is horrifying. My hope is that we'll be able to. Please talk about the stakes here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
And if it doesn't happen, it's simply because of certain Senate and House colleagues of yours that do not have the will to cut spending and do not want to face the music. Senator, we will not have a country anymore if we do not dramatically cut spending.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
After the 2008 election and the subsequent 2012 election of Barack Obama, people like Ezra Klein looked at the numbers and said, old people are conservative, young people are liberal, so the future will be liberal. That is a very... Fair and honest analysis. There's one thing they did not count on. They did not count on the grittiness and the hustle of Turning Point USA.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Senator, thank you for your leadership. We'll be watching very closely and keep on telling your colleagues that we, the base, are demanding spending cuts, demanding spending cuts.

The Democrat Extinction Event
So two pieces of personal news, the first of which this happened about a week and a half, two weeks ago. Very honored. The president of the United States, President Trump, selected me to serve on the Air Force Academy Board of Visitors. Yes, it is true. I've never served in the military. However, I do know something about kicking woke out of institutions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
The Air Force Academy is a very far left wing institution as it has been running the last couple of years and honored that the president has given me this opportunity alongside some other great change agents like Senator Tubbeville and many others. to make the Air Force Academy great again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
If we are serious about fighting the communist Chinese and our enemies abroad, we need the Air Force Academy to not be one that is focused on diversity, equity, inclusion, but instead on excellence and meritocracy. The second piece of personal news that I'm very honored and quite honestly humbled is that starting next week, a week from today, we will be taking over Dennis Prager's radio slot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
They did not count on the millions of students that actually wanted to have a future and the ascendant political force of President Donald Trump. Now, Ezra Klein, who is the premier explainer of things on the left, is stuck trying to explain why that didn't happen. So we had a Democrat statistician by the name of David Shore on his program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
Dennis is still recovering from a very difficult spinal cord injury that he sustained in November. I've visited Dennis a couple times in the hospital. And so starting next week, we are very humbled to be taking over his radio slot. It means that our radio audience will be growing by about 40%. And we will be doing an entire show in his honor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
Now, Dennis is still alive, and Dennis is going to be coming back on radio, hopefully in June, in the third hour of this program. But Dennis is in a tough spot, and we keep him in our prayers, and we keep him in our thoughts every single day. And I think I am one of the greatest Dennis Prager fans alive. I listen to him almost every single day. I read the Rational Bible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
I listen to all of his Rational Bible books. Lectures that he did over the course of 25 years. So honored and very humbled to be receiving his radio portfolio starting a week from today. Continuing here, how do young people get their information? Well, this is from the conversation between Ezra Klein and Mr. Shore.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
I talked about on this program, I said, hey, guys, there's something to this TikTok thing. We have to lean into TikTok. People said, oh, you know, like Tom Cotton, who doesn't even know what TikTok is. We must ban it. Okay, I used to believe that too. But did you realize that one of the reasons why we're singing a right-wing revolution is because of TikTok?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
One of the reasons why we saw so many people go in our direction is that we used something that we did not otherwise like, and we used it for good and virtuous and righteous purposes. Play cut 103.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
So this is the muscular class. These are young folks that are taking out your trash. They're serving you the food at In-N-Out Burger. They're driving your Uber Eats. They're just trying to make it work. Our hypothesis was correct. We said, hey, there's something to this TikTok thing. Democrats are trying to ban it. Let's go all in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
And, you know, with two and a half billion views on TikTok later, looks like the macro data pointed in our direction. And President Donald Trump also embraced TikTok. We had the third most popular TikTok of any TikTok accounts behind President Trump and Trump's campaign. When President Trump Trump's campaign, we were more popular. The Charlie Kirk show TikTok page.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
Good job, Ryan, was more popular than Kamala Harris. TikTok diluted the power of the mockingbird media. TikTok allowed us to go straight into the pockets of millions of young people. And so did X, to be fair. And so did Rumble and all the others. But nothing came close to the potency of TikTok. Nothing came even close because we were reaching non-political young people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
which is what I realized about a couple months into doing this. We went to our People's Convention in Detroit, and all of a sudden all the janitors are coming up giving me fist bumps, and these are blacks and Hispanics. I said, okay. Then I went to the DNC in Chicago, and all the people working at the DNC in Chicago said, we like you, we hate Kamala Harris, we follow you on TikTok.

The reason we are leading with this today, everybody, is that there is a generational restructuring happening. It's so obvious to us on this program. We've been warning about this for the last couple of years, not just warning about it, celebrating it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
I've been coming in the chair here on this program, Real America's Voice, and on the Salem Radio Network, telling you guys there's something happening on these campuses. There's something happening to the next generation. The crowds were drawing the views that we are garnering. And reporters would scoff at it. Oh, come on. What are you saying? You're going to win young people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
And Democrats took the next generation so for granted. And what is remarkable is that it is sticking. This is not just a Trump phenomenon. This is a widespread restructuring, a widespread realignment. By the way, if you want to know why Democrats lost, here's one of several actual explanations.

In 2020, David Shore was fired from the left-wing analytics company he worked at because he made a tweet saying that George Floyd riots might hurt Democrats politically. The very same guy that we're about to watch. Now, this is something that we've been saying on this program for quite some time. We are ahead of the curve here. We see the trajectory and we lead it.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We are the leading indicator here on this program. And all of you in this audience understand that we are not followers.

They follow the lead of War Room.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
They follow the lead of what we are doing with our Turning Point USA groups on campus. And they're processing information saying, what do you mean the New York Times doesn't set the trend anymore? It doesn't. The New York Times is reporting on months old data.

Now, the significance of this, everybody, is that you are dealing with a completely different political climate than any time that you have been alive since Ronald Reagan.

In fact, if you take an average 20-something voter that is a young man and an average 75-year-old man, and we've said this on this program and it drives some baby boomers a little bit nuts, and of course this audience exempt from that, the paradigm shift is so remarkable that the 20-year-old is more conservative than the 75-year-old. Let me say that again.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
that the 20-year-old is more conservative than the 75-year-old. Don't believe me? Here is Ezra Klein and David Shore who are pulling their hair out, going through all of the numbers, trying to process how on earth is it that the young men, the next generation are more conservative than their grandparents. Now, let me just take a pause before I play this piece of tape.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
If me mentioning that bothers you, it should actually give you great hope. If you're 75 and you find out that your colleagues that are boomers are more liberal than your grandkids, it actually means that you're going to be handing off a country that is more conservative. Good job. You guys did well. A good legacy.

Yes, your fellow boomers are trending left, but your grandkids are taking a hard right turn. There you could see the tens of thousands of students that attend our outdoor campus events. Tens of thousands. We don't just react to culture. You are part of a movement that is shaping it, creating it, and pushing it forward.

The most conservative. I have no idea who would have made that a stated goal. You're telling me for the first time. You see what you're witnessing there is a Ph.D. left wing struggle session as they're trying to go through the data and they're being honest in front of the audience. And they're one of the few people on the left that actually goes into the data.

And let me repeat again that an average 20 year old white man is far more conservative than their 75 year old grandparent. And it makes all the sense in the world. Number one, look at the information that they're consuming. The average 20-year-old is watching the Charlie Kirk show. They're listening to the Charlie Kirk show podcast. They're consuming Matt Walsh on TikTok.

They are watching the influencer army that we have helped assemble. The 75-year-old boomer man is more likely to watch cable news. They're more likely to watch NBC and ABC, young people aren't watching the news. They're getting it in 10-second sound bites of which we are dominant.

For those skeptical of polls and sampling size, David Shore's study, which you just saw in that video, is based on 26 million online responses collected over the course of 2024 and filtered to adjust to oddities of modern polling. This trend, if it continues, everybody, is one of the greatest points of optimism that we see on the horizon. And this is why we are doing more campus tours than before.
The Charlie Kirk Show

This is why we are starting more high school chapters and starting more college chapters. This is the sleeper narrative underneath everything. It undergirds the entire society. The subterranean truth that we are living through right now. is that there is a political earthquake that you have been praying for and it is sticking and it is only continuing. It is not just a Donald Trump phenomenon.

It is a right-wing revolution that is happening from the youth to the old, from the bottom up, from the students to the elders, from the Gen Xers, the Gen Zers, to the boomers.

Young Hispanics, young blacks, young whites that are men are all shifting to the right. Young women are, too, but not to the same extent. One of the reasons why young men are shifting to the right is the hyper feminization of American politics. Is how feminine the Democrat Party has become when you are trying to raise young men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
You learn that young men do not like taking orders, especially when it comes to discipline, from women. Now you can complain about that. You can say it's sexist. You can say it's awful. But it's the truth. 16, 17, and 18-year-old men hesitate to take orders from women in authority. You cannot like it, but it is a fact of nature. This is why teenage boys need dads around.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
They need a man that they can look up to that is able to exhibit force, that is able to put structure and rules and guidelines. And God bless single moms, but they are not able to always get the job done. This is why you need a father and a mother around when you raise a child. The same goes politically.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
So when a young man looks at the horizon of American politics, and on one side you have screeching women telling them to shut up, to watch your pronouns, to watch your language, young men inherently do not like taking orders. From women, men are wired this way. Now, eventually men will help grow out of that if the women earn their respect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
But 16, 17, 18 year old young men, they don't respond well to that. They inherently rebel. So the entire Democrat Party is wired in a way against young men's nature. Sit down and shut up. We're going to call you a racist. So young men start to gravitate towards a political party that is not hyper-feminized. In fact, who is the most alpha male, both through his language and his body posture,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
It's Donald Trump. So you have hyper-feminized politics of Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren and AOC. And then you have alpha male politics of Donald Trump. And Ezra Klein and David Shore, they don't understand any of this. Because they think it's all just a big policy debate. It is so much deeper than that. It's that young men don't want to take orders from women.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Democrat Extinction Event
It's obvious. You know that when you're around teenage boys. They need a man that they can trust and a man that has strength. And then they'll shut up and listen. And so what women in the Democrat Party do is they say, you're toxic. You need to be medicated. Sit down and let the women handle it. They say, no, I'm going to go to the right.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And they haven't even necessarily thought through all the policy implications of what it means to be a conservative. but it appeals to their reason. And the communicators are typically men that don't apologize to tyrannical left-wing politics. Play cut 76.

Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature. More importantly, they can show us that faith, family, and friends are worth fighting for. Maybe you read these books a long time ago in school.

And I believe, Daisy, are we going to post that episode of Don Jr. and I on the Charlie Kirk show podcast page? If you are listening to this, we are going to post our entire episode in Wisconsin with Donald Trump Jr. So it's going to be great. OK, Lisa, Lisa, thank you for being a member. Members dot Charlie Kirk dot com. What's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Yes. What is on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Yes. I mean, the behavior problems are partially phone induced. Secondly, teachers are not able to discipline kids the way they used to because of fear of reprisal and political correctness. Hyper localizing things is always a better option. Abolishing the Department of Education won't, I think, have any way either way on behavioral problems.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I'm curious, Lisa, what are you hearing from your experience regarding some of the behavioral problems? Because I actually, I will clarify this. Blake reminded me. The Obama administration's civil rights office at the Department of Education would go after local school districts for suspending kids too much and saying, oh, you're suspending black kids too much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Well, maybe those kids, not because they're black, just because they're not acting correctly, should be suspended. So getting rid of that would be great. But Lisa, tell me what you're hearing and seeing regarding this issue.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
So I just I want to be clear. So there are kids that will hit teachers. What grade? Third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Jeez, I I'm far from a child behavioral therapist. I'm a parent. I know that even my two year old, there needs to be discipline and order and time out. Like, no, you actually don't get that. And no, you don't always get what you want. And it's a battle. It requires active battling. And then the most important is no screen time. Matt Walsh said something really good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
That's a good one. They looked great yesterday. I did call McNeese over Clemson, so that was a good day. Some of my other picks didn't do too well. I begrudgingly – here, Daisy's bringing my bracket in, so I'm going to – I actually haven't graded. Have we graded it yet? No? It hasn't been graded. See, Daisy, she had Alabama State winning it all, which, yeah, a little rough.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
We're going to post the Matt Walsh episode at some point too. And I really like it. We're going to put it into our family as well, which is there is one screen for the entire family. It's a shared family screen and there's no iPads. There's no iPhones. Each parent has a phone and that's it. And at least for our kids, there is no show time. There's no screen time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
The only time that my daughter has watched TV was with me last evening because we were watching March Madness. And that was very important.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
So, yeah, as an occupational therapist, would you see the screen time is a big, big issue?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Yeah. I mean, you could even say you made such a good point that kindergartners who were basically born in covid, they didn't see people and they were on their phones. They have to be so behind right now. Just so behind. Right. I mean, we're talking about a generational time bomb.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
So I am I mean, I am curious. I mean, my daughter is a great artist for her age, as I might say now. But I mean, we're constantly always, you know, parenting how to hold. What do these parents do with their kids? They send them to daycare, I guess, when they were growing up. What are the daycares doing?

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I haven't thought about it much. So how are dividend stocks now taxed at ordinary income, not capital gains? I would imagine that's the case. Is that right? Correct. Yeah. Yeah. So I think that the gravitation away from stocks giving or companies giving dividends has been a bad move. For example, a company that still gives dividends is Campbell Soup. They're well known for giving a good dividend.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I think ExxonMobil used to give a really good dividend and they still do. Maybe I could be wrong. I'm drawing from memory here. But the incentive, of course, when you have a dividend is to hold is to hold that asset. And it disincentivizes the kind of hedging and the kind of stock manipulation that we're currently seeing. I am far from an expert on the stock market.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I leave that to a lot of other much smarter people. I will do private investments. But generally, we need to reward risk takers and decrease taxes on our good faith investors. That is in general what we need to do. And I will encourage anybody, though, if you're young, get in on the market at some level. Learn the market. Learn how it works.

And if you don't know anything else, buy companies that you use. Very simple rule for life. Buy companies that you use. Thank you, my friend. I will think about that. And it's a great question.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
That was against Auburn. So let me think. Creighton won. Michigan won. I was right about that. I was wrong about Yale. I thought Yale was going to do it. A lot of games today yet. I thought High Point was going to be a sleeper, and I was incorrect. I have McNeese going to the Sweet 16, though. I had Xavier. Actually, I'm doing pretty well. I only missed a couple yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
So I don't know about that. I will say, though, that we need to get these files out now, whether they need to go through like redacted court records, which is something I've heard. There is no excuse whatsoever. At some point in time, hopefully sooner rather than later, we need a release of all the Epstein files. All of them. No redactions, no big black squares or boxes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
But also we need the tapes. We need all of the correlated evidence. We deserve it. And President Trump signed an executive order releasing it. What are they hiding exactly? What are they hiding? And President Trump has demanded it and President Trump should get what President Trump has asked for. And there's a lot of questions around the Epstein thing, a lot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
And I look forward to getting some answers. And no, I do not believe that Epstein committed suicide. Blake, do you think Epstein killed himself? That's actually an interesting question. Which side Blake is on the Epstein question? Is Blake a normie on the Epstein question? He says, eh, probably. So he definitely killed himself. Kidding, Blake. I'm giving you a hard time.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I do. Well, I think they designed it through two chambers. But, yes, I do believe a simple majority in the House was sufficient. But they designed it to a 66-vote threshold, I believe, in the Senate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Hear what you're saying. The issue is that I believe in the Constitution, it prevents the Senate conviction unless there are 66 votes. But thank you, sir. We're running out of time. Really appreciate that question. Thank you. Okay, Benjamin. Benjamin, thank you for being a member. Members.CharlieKirk.com. What's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I think the unmasking is happening. I love that term. I would first encourage everybody, though, to make sure the local church that you are going to is one that is not woke and is not involved in this. It is not enough just to say that, oh, you know, it's a big problem, but your local church is like, well, I still like the music, even though they have a gay pride flag flying.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
So you have to make sure that your local church is a reflection of your values. Your second question, Benjamin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
It's a great question. And the answer is he already is. Now, he's not going to get classified briefings as far as like what China's how we're going to attack or whatever against China. However, Space Force is primarily an Elon Musk production. Space Force right now is primarily just satellites. And that is almost all Elon Musk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
And so as far as developing better technologies, we have a crisis right now in our military. We have a crisis, of course, with the rank and file, with the wokeism, the DEI. Hegseth is cleaning all that up. The bigger crisis, though, is we have a military manufacturing crisis. What we are producing for warfare is antiquated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Full disclosure, everybody, aircraft carriers are an antiquated way of fighting. It's going to be all about drones and artificial intelligence. It's going to be less about really expensive F-35 fighters or even the new fighter that they just came out with, which is fine. And it's going to be more about can you have a $200 drone fly into the front lines. Tanks are becoming antiquated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
You guys are the greatest. Thank you, guys. Thanks for the prayer and the support. It means so much. God bless you guys. Talk to you soon. Thanks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
And so there was this fake news story from the New York Times suggesting President Trump was giving classified briefings to Elon Musk. That is not true. But to create the finest fighting force on the planet, we have to fix the actual weaponry that our troops need. Warfare is becoming more and more of an unmanned game of who has the best gadgets. And I certainly hope we can keep up.

Right. So I think this comes out of something that Howard Lutnick said where he said the president's plan is for anybody under one hundred fifty thousand dollars to pay no tax. Right. Right. Right. I hear what you're saying. I personally think that there's way too much taxing for the working class in this country, people that work with their hands, people that work in trades.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
So I'm very much supportive of that. And I also think it shows a great mindset. Regardless of the details, I think it's a really good mindset that they want to cut taxes for working people, for people that are in the middle class specifically. So thank you, Patty. Really appreciate it. Thank you.

It's a good question. Arguing is okay, actually. I'm okay. Arguing is fine. Condemnation for no good reason is not. A couple things. I try to point everyone back to the Ten Commandments. If you want to honor God, Christ our Lord says, follow my commands. The Ten Commandments are the eternal rubric. It is the baseline for a free society and a flourishing life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
And we can go through them if you'd like. It is, you shall have no other gods before me, that you shall have no idols, you shall not take the Lord's name in vain, that you shall work for six days, you shall work on the seventh day, you shall rest on the Sabbath day, you shall keep it holy. Honor your mother and father so that you may live long in the land of which you are in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
The only one of the Ten Commandments that includes a promise and also your country. You shall not steal. You shall not murder. You shall not commit false testimony. You shall not commit adultery. And finally, you shall not covet. It's all from memory, by the way. And by the way, everyone in this audience, you should have the Ten Commandments committed to memory.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I want to be able to study the Ten Commandments and know as much as a human being can know about those Ten Commandments as one of kind of my life's passion and my life's work. I read entire books on just the Ten Commandments, on just a singular commandment. Look, you have to dedicate your time to a certain genre of stuff. I think knowing the Ten Commandments is a really good place to start.

It is a moral guide in a moral abyss. Now, as far as bringing people back to Christ, this is where our churches are failing terribly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
One of the reasons why our churches are failing terribly is they talk only about a savior and not about what you need a savior from. They talk only about the sweetness of the gospel, but not the bitterness of sin. And so I think the church needs to do a much better job of that. And the church needs to lean in and fill that existential void.

was saying that we are filled with the Spirit and that we believe in God and that this world is not our own, and they were quick to shudder in fear and mask and vax, I think was a great indictment of the moral cowardice of what the American church had become and is.

You could buy booze, you could go to a strip club, you could go to a marijuana dispensary, but you couldn't go to church to sing a hymn.

I have circumstantial evidence, but I think a proper FBI and Department of Justice investigation into the Open Society Foundation and into the George Soros Network, into the BLM activities in 2020, Floydapalooza, is beyond necessary. And then secondly, is there an orchestrated campaign of who is burning down these Teslas, who is going after these Tesla dealerships?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
That is orchestrated, potentially funding domestic terrorism. And so Kash Patel and Dan Bongino should make it a top priority to go after anybody that is financing terror and financing the destruction of the United States of America. Thank you, Connie, so much. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Charlie Kirk here.

When faced with a threat, you might think of lethal force, but consider a less lethal option like Burna to avoid legal issues tied to firearms. As a strong advocate for the right to bear arms, I value diverse defensive options, and Burna offers an effective alternative.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
Proudly assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Burna's less lethal pistol launchers, loaded with tear gas and kinetic ammunition, can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes, allowing you to safely escape or call for help while reducing the risk of severe injury. Burna is about preventing tragedy and preserving life without the consequences of using lethal measures.

Be very careful sending your kid to college. It might not be worth it. I wrote an entire book called The College Scam. I called this shot early. And with time, we've been proven more and more correct. 90% of kids that go to college should not be there. They exit dumber, angrier, with far less wisdom and a lot more hatred of core values and of America. Now, Turning Point USA is helping change that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
But let me read this email. On a previous episode, we talked about, by the way, the problem with college educated women. And here is this email. Charlie, I'm sorry to say that you are so right on with the selfishness of white college educated women. I sent my own daughter to a private Christian university in Texas where I live, thinking this would be a safe place for her.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
She came out of it as a raging feminist. She's not a bad person. She's a generous person on some matters. But in those basic ways, she's very much about self. Despite attending a Christian university, she came out of it as an agnostic. I love her forever, but we've simply agreed that we absolutely cannot talk about many matters involving politics or religion as we end up in huge arguments.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I have no idea where she gets her ideas. She's been out of college for 10 years. She did move to the most liberal city in the state of Texas after graduation, and her circles of people are like-minded. Because of her ideology, I will never have a grandchild. which brings me great sadness. My daughter worked hard to get into college and did very well there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
She, of course, obtained a generally useless degree. My $40,000 of student loans brought me a daughter that definitely thinks my generation, I am Jan X, are a bunch of racists that don't understand how the world actually works. College was not just a scam, but it absolutely ruined my daughter and made her into a miserable person. No husband, no kids, just constant travel in search of something.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 216: No Taxes Under $150k? Elon Musk Army?
I know what that something is, but she's, of course, not open to God, and that is the saddest part of all. Keep spreading the news. Maybe it will prevent someone else's daughter from being ruined by college professors. God bless. That is my life's work.
The Charlie Kirk Show

One of my life's work, I have five or six things that I focus my life on, is to hopefully save young people from going to college to become a tragedy. All right, David. David, what is on your mind? We are doing poor with the unmuting today. Otherwise, it's a great program. David, what's on your mind? Hey, you did it. Good for you. You broke the stage.

These extra vaccines on kids, especially those in religious environments, it's a serious issue. And I know producer Andrews dealing with this right now in the free state of California. And anything beyond the 1980s schedule and that is with. I mean, you were talking about they're mandated. They're mandated in the covid shot now for six months old. And this is outrageous stuff.

And so I think there has to be a role for the federal government. And my my other piece of advice is try to work through the courts. There has to be some decision somewhere. It used to be 10 vaccines. Now it's 72 shots for our babies. Something's not right. And our kids are sicker than ever. History, economics, the great works of literature.

Remember, our money. And by the way, if Apple or if Chipotle or Five Guys is wasting our money, then stop going there because the product will decline. But it's done through voluntary exchange. The federal government is different because it's we the people. We are shareholders in this project. We are citizens. We are co-owners, at least we're supposed to be.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And that is the central question revolving all of this. Are we the people, customers? Are we shareholders or are we subjects? Who works for who? They work for us. And soon they're going to tell us what they do all day long or else face instant termination. Private student loan debt in the U.S. totals about $300 billion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
I guarantee you, somebody watching this right now, a lot of you have private distressed student loan debt. You just kind of ignore it, ignore it, ignore it. And that's not the right way to do it. You've got to confront your problems. You have to look head-on to your issues. That is the right rule for life, and it's no different for student loan debt. YRefi does not care what your credit score is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
You can finally take control of your student loan situation with a plan that works for your monthly budget. Many clients are not even able to make the minimum monthly payment on their private student loans when they first contact YRefi. But do you have a co-borrower? Bad credit is accepted. Let me say it again. Bad credit is accepted, and they do not care what your credit score is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
There are a lot of stories that are bubbling up, and we are going to be covering them here exclusively on the program. The first of which is an email. An email heard around the world. A singular email that was sent last week. And the email was to ask every federal worker, so what do you do here and what have you gotten done? Email was sent and it says, quote, please reply.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
They don't care. Call 888-YRefi34 or log on to YRefi.com. Do you have a co-borrower? YRefi can get them released from the loan and you can give mom and dad a needed break. If your privacy and loan debt just keeps piling up at night and ruining your life, it doesn't have to. Just call YRefi.

The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Senator, I think you would like to hear, I was just on the campus of University of South Florida. We had 2,000 plus students attend. This Thursday, I'll be on the campus of University of Florida. This Friday, Florida State University. So we are doing your home state proud, sir.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
It's very good. Better than Washington, D.C. and much better than my hometown of Chicago right now. So, Senator, I want to ask you a really hard question out of the gate here. I need five bullet points of what you did last week. The floor is yours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And let's just kind of dwell on this for a second, that market principles when you built a business are that if you're unproductive or if you're defiant or if you are lazy or if you are not a good fit, you will be terminated. The government has always operated as its own thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Talk about how what you did also as governor of Florida to bring in those market principles and why Florida is probably the best run state in the country. But how did we get to a point in the federal government where we act as if federal workers are an untouchable holy class?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And so what is Congress's role here? What would you say as far as trying to put forward the Doge agenda and making government work for the people again?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
This is sent to every federal worker. Please reply to this email with approximately five bullets of what you accomplished last week and CC your manager. Please do not send any classified information, links, or attachments. Deadline to reply is Monday at 1159 Eastern Standard Time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And no one has thought to do this. I mean, obviously, Biden wouldn't. But for the last 20 or 30 years, and we finally have this mandate given by the American people. We also need we need serious deficit and debt reduction reform. I know this is something they're very passionate about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
But if we are not serious about analyzing key expenditures, we're going to become routinely in trillion dollar deficits. It's a make or break moment. Speak to this to our audience, Senator, of the high stakes of the fiscal apocalypse that is looming if we do not start cutting spending.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And government spending is the primary driver of that. I know you told producer Andrew in the break that the next two weeks are going to be very interesting. Please outline the next two weeks for us, Senator.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
It's it's a very consequential time. What are also the status of Trump's undersecretaries and deputies? Give us some idea of the confirmation schedule there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
As soon as this email was sent, federal workers started to scream and say, what do you mean I have to tell you what I do? This is harassment. This is taunting. This is unfair. No one has ever asked a federal worker, what do you do? Now, we do this every single week at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action. What do you do here? Tell us your progress report.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
So, Senator, I want your comments, and I'm going to speak about this later in the show, of another Floridian going into the FBI, Dan Bongino. Dan Bongino has been chosen to be deputy director of the FBI. Your thoughts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Senator, any closing thoughts of things that are legislative priorities or fights you want our audience to be aware of?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Senator, thank you so much. Really appreciate it. And Godspeed. Big couple of weeks ahead. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Thank you. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here. There's a lot of excitement in Washington, D.C. as we start the year. But I wanted to talk to you about something just as exciting happening outside the D.C. Beltway, a revolution in the states. It's the education freedom movement. It's real.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
It's growing and growing because some states, as they should, are putting parents in charge of the education of their kids. Everyone knows education has the power to change a kid's life, and anyone who raised a child knows each has different needs, learning styles, and God-given talents. The fact is parents know their own children best, knows what's best for their development and future.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Education freedom legislation puts parents, not zip codes and politicians in charge of these important family decisions. It's why I strongly support making universal education freedom a reality for every parent in every state.

In fact, taking a page out of Elon, we're going to do this now every single week methodically. List the five things you got done. Federal workers are now clamoring, saying that this violates union rules. I'm sorry, guys. This is beyond laughable. This is repulsive. These people have jobs that we pay for, and they can't respond to an e-mail Asking them, just list five things you got done here.

What Do You Actually Do Here?
was a Secret Service agent. A Secret Service agent, by the way, does have arrest authority. So you could say that he was a law enforcement agent. And I believe he was a police officer before that, if I'm not mistaken. The media is trying to say, oh, he was just a podcaster. No, no, no. He has significant law enforcement background. But Dan Bongino, his podcast is massive. It's huge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Really got viral during Russiagate. Dan Bongino went all in during Russiagate. and exposed the lying, the deceit, and the illegal activity of the FBI against President Trump. And he was terrific at it. Dan Bongino also will get to the bottom of what happened on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania. No more can they just, oh, take out Kash Patel, but you also have Dan Bongino. No, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Now you have this dynamic duo. To turn the FBI back into a law enforcement agency. And I trust Kash Patel with my life. And I trust Dan Bongino with my life. And you have one-two combo here. And people did not see this one coming. Here is Dan Bongino this morning making the announcement on his program or reacting to it. Play cut 65.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
This is why all of you chased ballots. This is why all of you gave financially to President Trump and Turning Point Action. This is why all of you registered voters, all of our fortitude to grind through the dark night of the soul is paying off.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
It's not just that we have President Donald Trump, but we have Pete Hegseth, we have Marco Rubio, we have Scott Besson, we have Bobby Kennedy, we have Tulsi Gabbard, not just Kash Patel, but now Dan Bongino. TikTok for all of the deceitful parasitic criminals that have been infecting our law enforcement agents, the Department of Justice, the FBI. We got Pam Bondi. We got Kash Patel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
We got Dan Bongino. We got eyes scanning. the horizon for any activity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Dan Bongino being number two at the FBI will ensure that President Trump does not have to go through a Russiagate 2.0, will ensure that Peter Struckstroke Smirk and his like and his little minions are not going to infiltrate the government to be weaponized against the people and against the administration that was popularly elected.

And the answer, of course, is they don't do anything of value. They show up, get a cup of coffee, reshuffle some papers, go into a conference room, and they're out the door by 3.30 or 4 o'clock.

whether you are a doctor or a lawyer, an engineer. In the private sector, every day you have to justify your existence. Every day, even if you work at McDonald's, even if you work as a garbage man, name five things that you did at McDonald's.

Well, today I cleaned the French fryer and I scrubbed the floors and I made Big Macs and I made sure the Diet Coke machine was working and I helped the customer to their car because she was struggling in the snow.

What Do You Actually Do Here?
But if you dare to ask our millions of federal workers, hey, just tell us five bullet points of what you did. They are mass refusing this inquiry. It is intimidating, they say. It's scary. They're not used to have anybody come in and ask them a question. In fact, what a chance to brag. Put out your chest. Oh, yeah, Elon, these are the five things that I do at the Department of Interior.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
These are the five things I do at Health and Human Services. This could be done in two minutes. These are the five things I did. One, two, three, four, five. Can these people not do bullets? Can these people read? I'm getting to some very provocative answers. They are mass deciding not to respond to this inquiry. if your work is all classified, just say so. And chances are it's not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Chances are you're not doing anything that you can even report on. You simply exist. You are a leech on us. And this is the core of what Elon is surfacing, what President Trump is flushing out. It's not even that they themselves are worthy of the criticism, which they are. A lot of these people are less than desirable. They could not hold a job at your local Chipotle.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
In fact, your local Uber Eats driver, your local Chipotle worker, they're working their tail off every day, and God bless them. But the federal work, those are plushy jobs where nothing is done. These jobs never should have existed in the first place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And both Republicans and Democrats, George W. Bush, alongside Bill Clinton, alongside Barack Hussein Obama, alongside Joe Biden, have been protectorates of this bipartisan regime that we talk about a lot, the Uniparty. where there are millions of jobs that should not exist.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
There are famously entire departments of the government just filled with people taking months on end to do what would take a day in a startup or any real company, the bottom line. It is so telling that asking a federal worker to take five minutes or two minutes to explain what exactly you do here has become such a controversy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Members.charliekirk.com. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
It proves that the culture in government is rotten and the media is going along with it. MSNBC right now has must to federal workers justify your job or else. Yes, that's the way things work in the real world, not the fantasy world of government, because the money is running out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
If there's only one takeaway from our time together today that I want you to internalize, it's that President Trump and Elon Musk and J.D. Vance and Pete Hegseth are challenging the DC orthodoxy that government is untouchable. Government works for us. They are not a holy realm of existence that we are not allowed to criticize, that we are not allowed to question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Now, mind you, the left, they will criticize every conservative nonprofit. They'll investigate Turning Point USA. They'll find out how many ballot chases we have on the ground. They'll write ad nauseum about anything in right-wing world, but they will never criticize or lift a finger asking a question about the government. This is not the government's money. It is our money. This is your money.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
We are a team together in this as you as taxpayers, and they have been fleecing us. over the last couple of decades. And let me just read the email again. Is this intimidating to you? Does this require a safe space? Does this make you have to run away?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And this goes to my operating thesis that I wrote in that book back there, The College Scam, which I said this is the college campusification, that's not a word, but I made it up, of the entire country. You are not allowed to ask a junior at Yale, what did you learn here? That's intimidation. You're not allowed to have an exit test when you leave Stanford. That could be threatening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Safe spaces, speech codes, rooms with puppies and milk and cookies. If you hear something threatening, these people are now staffing your government. As we have always said, what happens on college campuses does not stay in college campuses. It ends up in corporate boardrooms, the halls of Congress, and metastasizes into your government.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
This is the same mentality that I've been fighting for the last decade on college campuses that we are finally starting to see a shift. And again, this is the email. Please reply to this email with approximately five bullet points of what you accomplished last week and CC your manager. Do not send any classified information, links, or attachments. For every single person out there,
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
That has had a private sector job. And there are millions of you listening and watching. You should be angered and incensed by this. That these people think that they are an untouchable holy class. They think they have been given the divine right of kings. That we serve at the pleasure of this oligarchy. That if you have a federal job, we can't ask a question. We can't dare question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
your existence. We are just lucky that you'll mention us as an example. And I could tell you as somebody who has employed, employs well over a thousand people. If America Fest was organized by the federal government, it would take four years to plan it out. It would cost five times as much. And there would be like a single podium with five speakers. The federal government
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
is not just slow and bloat inefficient. It's largely become 80% unnecessary. Of course, there's core function of the federal government that should exist. 80% of these jobs should not exist. 90% should not exist. And they're proving our point. They can't even respond to a crisp email. This is what I do. This is why I exist. Your local janitor at a school could tell you what they do all day long.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
the person that serves you your Starbucks coffee or serves you your Dunkin' Donuts can tell you to do it all day long, but no. The HR manager at Department of Commerce, it's against union rules. And the difference is this. When you go to Dunkin' Donuts, that's a voluntary exchange. You are deciding to spend your money at Dunkin' Donuts. No one did that in a mandatory way.

And they conflate voluntary action versus compulsory action or mandatory action. If you in the audience right now do not pay your taxes... They'll eventually find you, most likely, and put you in jail. It is mandatory for you to pay your taxes. I pay a lot in taxes, and I'm sure you pay a lot in taxes, an unnecessary amount in taxes. So we pay a lot in taxes, and we send it to Washington, D.C.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
It is not us doing a voluntary contribution. Now contrast that for a second with when you go to Home Depot. Or when you decide to take your family out to a meal at Chili's. There was competition. There was choice. There was variety. And they have to earn your money. Customer service. That's why you're constantly singing, you can get a burger for $5 at Chili's. You can buy one, get one free.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
They have to earn your money. They have to convince you that your capital is worthy of spending. The government does no such thing. The government, at its core, comes in with a gun. And with the gun, they say, pay us or else. It's compulsory. Now, of course, some form of taxation is necessary. We agree with that.

What Do You Actually Do Here?
Some form of compulsory extraction of capital from the body politic is essential for common defense, for border security, for services, for those that could never lift themselves up. But the federal government has gone so much bigger than any of you realize. And it should tick you off because there is no concern for actually what finances this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And one of the core elements, and I would love to see President Trump rescind this executive order, is the forced unionization of federal workers. I don't believe that this was done by an act of Congress. I think it was an executive order by either JFK. FDR spoke out against the forced unionization of federal workers. It's so hard to fire these workers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
So, for example, if you're running a local Wendy's and a worker is constantly late and he is confusing burgers with chicken patties and chicken nuggets with fries, he has a bad attitude and is defiant, you fire them. But if you have a federal worker... That is confusing in audit with a subpoena. It's constantly late with a bad attitude. It's very difficult to fire that person, nearly impossible.

So market forces that built the wealth of the West, market forces that allowed the competitive drive and edge of entrepreneurialism for this country to become the greatest nation in the history of the world are not just not implemented in government. They're at odds with those things. So what Elon Musk and President Trump are doing is like, let's just ask a couple questions. What do you do here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
And what have you gotten done? And the demons are shrieking within the government because you can't even ask the question. And let me reiterate the point. They are only able to exist through force. Your local company, whether it be Apple.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
or whether it be a local restaurant, Italian restaurant or Lebanese restaurant that you care about, an auto repair clinic, whatever it might be, they are there because they earned it. They are not there through force. They're there through voluntary exchange. You cannot have a functioning organization if you cannot terminate the defiant, the lazy, or the unproductive.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Do You Actually Do Here?
Write that down and commit it to memory. You cannot have a flourishing organization if you cannot fire the lazy, the bloated, the defiant, or the unproductive. And the federal government is there through force, and we have no choice. Okay, since you're there because you extracted the money through us at gunpoint, shouldn't we then be able to, I don't know, wonder where our money is going?

So I do not have an eidetic memory. Blake probably does. Not quite. But no, I do not. And I don't know if I have the ability to read fast. I have the ability to process information pretty fast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
I can be sent a paragraph, be sent information, and I'm pretty good at being able to host a show and read what people are saying and then be able to at least make arguments while not everyone has, I think, the ability to do that. I guess it's a skill set. Andrew says, you process information insanely fast. Not always accurately, but I have a nine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Blake might answer questions from you guys, but more importantly during the breaks, we're going to test his... blind knowledge of Hillsdale College Roman history. People wanted it back, Charlie. They want it by popular demand, and that is something to witness and see. It is awfully entertaining and kind of breathtaking. Okay, Daisy, who do we have first?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Yeah. And it's the the Ryan says in the chat, he says the skill is nuts. You could talk on radio and then type messages in our chat at the same time. Very impressive. Yeah. I mean, that I never knew that was a skill. Andrew says sometimes you jump to conclusions and most of the time it's spot on. So that's the best answer I have. I guess I was born with it. Thank you, Brad, for being a member.

Kendra, thank you for being a member. Deeply appreciate it. By the way, I want to encourage you guys to get some of these hats that Blake and I are wearing here. This guy, you guys can get them at the Charlie Kirk store. We've sent all of them out as were promised, by the way. Let's go to Kendra. Kendra, what's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So first of all, I want to just applaud you, Kendra. The fight for life is the most important fight. So thank you for doing that and for going against the grain and going against popular conventional, let's just say, views and doing the right thing. So God bless you. You will be richly rewarded for that. Secondly, I want the number one piece of emphasis on that fight needs to be the churches.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
If the churches can't speak out on this issue, then there is no chance that you could stop it, especially, though, in a lower turnout type election. That's where churches can mobilize and can make up some of that difference. You are correct. We do not yet have full-time staff or any presence in Virginia at Turning Point Action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
We might expand, but understand every organization has to know their limitations, know where they're best positioned. Arizona has been obviously a major focus of ours. We're keeping an eye on Virginia. I certainly hope there's a good senatorial candidate coming. I would love to see Glenn Youngkin run for Senate in 2026. But more importantly, we do have tools that you in Virginia can use.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
You can use the Turning Point Action app. You could do a Commit 100. You can use some of our training. So there's a lot that is still available for you. But we are contemplating getting involved in the Commonwealth of Virginia campaign. Kendra, really quick, do you believe that Virginia could turn into a red state presidentially?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
I think you're right. Again, I don't want to get too bullish on it, but the trend is our friend in Virginia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
But Kendra, do not give up on the fight for life. It is incredibly important. I know that people want to ignore it and they don't want to fight for it, but lean in. I'm glad you're hosting, Seth, and hold the line. Seriously, God bless you for that. Thank you, Kendra, for being a member.

Two more. I want to get to these two more questions here. Polybius argues that the primary flaw of the Roman constitution is a true or false. Was that it impeded decisive and prompt action when it was needed?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Rome's mixed constitution created a system of checks whereby each part of the regime could prevent the others from becoming too strong or independent because no part of the regime was blank. I can read the options. Yeah, read the options on that one. capable of conducting foreign affairs, in control of the military, self-sufficient, or in charge of public finances?

I don't know if I'll be there this fall, this spring, but you never know when I'll be in Columbia. Yeah, if you're in the area. Are you feeling the campus culture change, that Gen Z kind of becoming more and more right-wing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Let's do self-sufficient because that was the last question, right? Okay, just to say, Rome's mixed constitution created a system of checks whereby each part of the regime could prevent others from becoming too strong or independent because no part of the regime was self-sufficient.

Thomas, do you know who Chappelle Rowan is? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I bet your music's better. She has a song called Pink Pony Club. Daisy says you would hate it. I'm sure I would. Look, if you love the craft, man, lean into it. Dedicate your life to it. Don't let anybody get in your way. Do what you believe is right. Art needs to glorify the highest good.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
The reason why music largely is terrible the last 20 years is it's not pointing towards anything. It's pointing towards self-indulgence. It's pointing towards licentiousness. It's pointing towards narcissism. All art, all inquiry points towards some good. What is that from, Blake? Aristotle's Ethics. It points everything and Aristotle is exactly right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Everything you do, every action, every inquiry, every art, every good points towards some good. It points towards what your definition of good is. And there is only one objective definition of good. So the point being is if you're going to be in pop start, do something that points towards the divine, towards the beautiful, not just towards rubbish like Chappelle Rowan. Thanks, man.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So. So, yes, a couple of things on that. The problem is the federal government does not have as much authority or jurisdiction over this as you might think. So let me read my X on this, if that's OK. Katie Hobbs just vetoed HB 2703, a bill that would have guaranteed Arizonans who would know the winner on the night of the election.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Arizona's been the laughingstock of national politics because it takes three to four weeks to deliver a final canvas. And Arizona's Democrat governor just vetoed it, as you say. We must become a state that will settle for this. And here's my unfortunate, but actually also fortunate, because I think we can do it. This has to be a state-led thing. This is not going to happen from the feds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
It has to be a state-led thing. And so we have to say that we're going to win the states from the bottom up and engage the grassroots. So that's the best answer I have. And hopefully we can pass the SAVE Act. All right. Thank you. Vernon is next. Vernon, what's on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So as far as Trump's third term, is that case that we were talking about? Yeah. I don't think it's constitutional. I'm open and willing to hear any and all arguments. Blake, what, if any, would the argument be that Trump could run for a third term? I... And let me just let's just read it constitutionally. What is the amendment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So let's read this. OK, and I want it. Let's let's hear this out. OK, because any argument we're going to hear out. No president shall be elected to the office of president more than twice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
And no person who has held the office of president or has acted as president for more than two years of a term, which some other person was elected president, shall be elected to the office of president more than once. And then it goes on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Yeah, but it does say, I mean, it's they would say it's not two consecutive terms. It does not mention consecutive anything here. It says no person shall be elected to the office more than twice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
I'm Trump's biggest fan. And I mean, if he's popular and if it's constitutional, fine. I just want to I'm just reading the law.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
By the way, all of you guys, this is one of the reasons why you should support Turning Point USA. You should have this Constitution with you at all times. It's amazing. It has all of the extra facts on it. Again, I am open to any argument always. But help me understand, is there wiggle room in the statement, no person shall be elected to the office of president more than twice?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
I, it does not strike me. Now, if it said that no person shall be elected to like consecutive terms, it's just none of that is there. All right. Thank you. Let's go to the next question. Scott, Scott, what is on your mind? Members.CharlieKirk.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
It's a really thoughtful question. Just so you know, producer Andrew is dealing with something very similar right now. I don't want to out him too much, but he's saying this ferociously in the chat, which is OK. He said it's OK. He said he's dealing it with his son and daughter right now. He can't use religious exemptions. They're demanding the full schedule every single shot. And so look.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
We have to be level-headed about this. Do we want to have MMR breakouts in schools? Probably not. At the same time, if you don't have a hepatitis B vaccine, you're not allowed into elementary school. That's insane. I'm sorry. That's technically on the schedule. And they're literally at a place now where if you don't have the COVID shot, they're not allowing kids into these schools.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
And so I think there's some middle ground where there could be kind of a core schedule that might be necessary for certain schools. But religious exemptions used to be a thing in California, and they've completely clamped down on them. So I think that it's something Bobby Kennedy needs to address completely and thoroughly. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?

So a couple things. First, just some good news on deportations. 37,660 people were deported in the last month. That's a good number. So it should be higher, but it's good. Let me just kind of make sure I'm going to do this times 12. Annualized, that's about 440,000. We probably need to get to about a million a year before we really start to...

The Charlie Kirk Show

I will say that Blake is exactly right that. And functionally, the ability to enforce and police like anti-white discrimination that will go to the Department of Justice. I will say what state you live in.

I didn't internalize that. So, yes, that that is a a unintended not unintended, but that's just the reality of it. But you could also vote with your feet.

Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Yes, there's more administrators than teachers. That's according to Dr. Larry Arnn. So that means that the majority of education spending goes towards paper pushers and permanent bureaucracy. Again, that's Dr. Larry Arnn's numbers. I trust him, and he's a serious guy. And, I mean, it just goes to show, what has the Department of Education done?

stem the tide of even what biden did but that's good 440 000 is not insignificant that that is definitely worthy of of focus long term i will say trey long term in the housing market and development we are going to see a mass adoption of robotics replacing human beings for skilled tasks That is not imminent. But Blake, would you say that's that's five to 10 years?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
It's going to be similar to how Internet was kind of like tried in a certain places. It's going to take over the world. which actually, honestly, is more of a reason for restrictionist immigration policy. Exactly. Why do you have to have so many foreigners coming in to do your jobs if robots are going to do those jobs?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
I agree, and I think that the more cynical view of mass— Thank you. That's great B-roll, guys. Look at that. for the mass adoption of robotics and AI. The cynical view is that, well, what will human beings do with their time? I will say first and foremost, if done properly, AI, chatbots, what's this one? Perplexity I have on my computer.

If you know how to use it, it can actually make you better at your craft. It can make you sharper, make you faster. It's not even a replacement. It's an accelerant. Now, there will be a lot of replacement and displacement, but But I would not underestimate human beings' ability to use technology to find better and greater uses and purposes. And it needs to benefit the species.

You could do a full motion picture movie of an idea you have. So what it's going to do is it's going to sharpen human beings ability to judge what is good and not good. a skill that we don't always use, but there definitely could be some downsides there.

So anyway, as far as the housing market goes, I also think mass deportation will bring the price of housing down because there'll be less bidding for the limited supply. Thanks man for your question.

The Charlie Kirk Show

So first of all, I want to just ask, can you just describe to the audience what that campus vibe was like firsthand? It was a packed group. They were standing the whole time. Kind of bring us into the arena for someone that's just watching some of the clips. What was it like? What did you learn? What did you see?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Wasn't that chilling?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So thank you for that. It was an awesome event. As far as the the work authorizations, I don't I don't know. Look, the president's stated policy right now is that he wants to continue a steady stream of legal immigration and crack down on illegal immigration. That's fine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
However, if and when I would have some disagreement that if and when it starts to jeopardize the wage growth or the wage integrity of native born Americans, I would have some problems with that. But I think the president is addressing this in a very smart way. Go after people that are in this country illegally. And you remember that young lady yesterday from Columbia. She said, we're here legally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
We want the people who are not here legally to get the heck out of the country. It actually creates a lot of legal versus illegal immigrant resentment, as it should.

You're the best. All right. We're going to see how much Blake knows about random Roman trivia brought to you by Hillsdale College. Just a reminder, all of this is accessible at charlieforhillsdale.com. So normally, if Blake was doing this how I would, I take the online course, and then I take the quiz. Now, you've never taken these online courses, correct, Blake?

Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
They're wonderful, for the record.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
But it's fun because now Blake is kind of going in blind. Now the extra points, if you can do it without me telling you the multiple choice. Okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So this, so let, let's take some time on this. We have all hour to kind of go throughout this. This is the first question. Okay. Polybius. Did I say that right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Was the tutor and mentor of blank whom he accompanied on campaign.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
That is right. Well, I don't know if it's right, but that's one of the options. So the options were Quintus Fabius, Scipio Africanus, Hannibal Barca, and Scipio.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
And Scipio Alamanus is one of them. We'll find out if you were right at the end, but I imagine you are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Got it. According to Polybius, the primary reason Rome was able to conquer the Mediterranean world in less than 53 years was due to what? He thought they had a special magical constitution. That is one of the answers. We'll find out if you're right. According to Polybius, blank is, and again, I can give you the multiple choice answers if you'd like. Blank is part of the constitution of Rome.

Now, I probably have to give you the multiple choice answers here. So according to Polybius, blank is part of the constitution of Rome. Education, religion, the military, all of the above or none of the above.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Okay, just to make sure.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So you would say all of the above. Education, religion, and military. Got it. Question four. Very heavy on Polybius today. Polybius explains that the Romans had a mixed constitution with the Senate designed to supply what?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
So that is one of the options. So is that your final answer?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
Okay. Aristocracy. This is the last one. Then we'll take a break and we'll get back to the highest office in the cursus honorum. Mm-hmm. Did I say that right? Cursus Sonorum. I'm not sure how you pronounce it for sure. Was the what? Consul. Okay. That is one of the answers. So I know enough to be dangerous about a consul. Cicero was a Roman consul.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 213: Three Terms? First Hand Campus Tour Experience? Vaccine Exemptions?
But yeah, Cicero was like a one-year Roman council. Was that before or after? Before Caesar, it had to be.

That are sick and tired of seeing your beloved home be overrun by hordes of illegals. This is your victory. And no longer is this just a rally about what we say we're going to do when President Trump takes office. Now I can say what he's doing right now as we are here in this arena. As we are here right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
President Donald Trump is signing executive order after executive order, 200 executive actions and orders today, some of which include drill baby drill, curb inflation, national emergency on the southern border, and my favorite, that God created man and woman. There are no other genders besides that. No more critical race theory or diversity, equity, inclusion in our military.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
Our taxpayer dollars will no longer fund our kids to hate our country. It is over as of today, thanks to President Trump. And what you saw from President Trump today, which, by the way, I believe was the best inaugural address in American history. And the reason why it was the best, it was not platitudes or abstractions or empty promises. It wasn't about stuff that the D.C. regime wants to hear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
While they were all sitting behind him, he basically said the people. in this room have been robbing you, the American people. You see, as of high noon, just an hour and a half ago, the 46th president is no longer. And you might think it was Joe Biden, but it really was a bunch of White House staffers that you've never heard of before. Their term is over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
It will go 45 Trump, a bunch of White House staffers, 47 Trump. That is how the succession will go. And what we have seen these last couple of years was the intentional destruction and obliteration of our homeland. And in just one day, we're going to understand a very simple truth. That decline is a choice.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
That when your country is failing, it's because our leaders have decided to allow it to fail. And President Trump, I really believe, is on a mission from the Almighty to save this country in that millimeter miracle where he very well could have been not just shot, but unspeakable things could have happened in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
And the reason that they wanted to take out Donald Trump so bad, 700 years in federal prison, every possibly imaginable, is because he brings you guys into the room. It's because he brings you into the negotiation. You see, this was supposed to be a managed decline of the United States of America. And just understand what you are living through. You're living through a new American renaissance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
And honestly, there were a lot of people that said there's no way they'll allow Donald Trump to be president again. They're going to steal it. They're going to use the machines. And I understand all that. They're going to try to take him out. But never underestimate the will of the American people and the sovereignty of God towards righteous and good purposes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
Donald Trump is evidence that God is not done with the United States of America, that our best days are ahead of us. And our marching orders are very simple. Right now, the southern border is being secured and it is being militarized. There are no more illegal entries allowed in the United States of America right now. It is right now. Right now, the evasion is over. It is over.

And for me personally,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
I have a lot of things that I could have done, but the most important thing that I can do and Turning Point can do is to go back on these campuses to make sure that Gen Z is the most conservative generation in American history. I'll say this in closing, everybody. In closing. Donald Trump won the White House largely because younger voters trusted Donald Trump with their vote.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American Dream is Making a Comeback — My Remarks at the Capital One Arena on Inauguration Day
It was the largest swing of any demographic, a 35-point swing. For 12 years, I have been focusing on trying to get young people to believe in America, to believe in conservative principles. And I went to campus after campus, and you know it was not easy work. It was very difficult.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Phenomenal question. So first and foremost, read the actual Bible itself. I know that sounds to be a simple answer, but reading the Word of God will never turn void. Secondly, and this is a great opportunity to segue, Ryan, can you find the John MacArthur clip recently, please? One of the greatest Bible commentaries. So if you are a baby Christian or a new Christian, awesome, praise the Lord.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Well, first of all, God bless you. And so let me ask you, are you visiting first your parents? And number two, okay, because that matters, that's not just cousins, because the Bible is very clear about how you deal with parents versus just other random relatives. So I'm going to comment on that from a biblical perspective.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
And then number two, are they either serious about their faith and or do they care about Israel?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
So so here is my my take. Number one is that I would try to have some baseline and saying, look, we're not going to do any politics now that that's a that might not be well received. And let me tell you why, especially with your parents. As you know, in the Ten Commandments, the fifth commandment is honor your mother and father so that you may live long in the land of which you are in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
We are called to honor our parents. It doesn't say, hey, only honor them if you have the same politics or only honor them if you see the world the same way. But number two, as someone who has also found Yeshua, Jesus Christ, if that does come up, it says in the scriptures, be equipped to have an answer if you are questioned, but do so in love and constantly try to diffuse.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
If there's provocation, say, guys, I'm not here to debate. I'm not here to have a combative thing. Let's have a sweet time together. I honor you as my parents, and let's find other things to talk about. At the same time, if you feel comfortable, because look, in some Jewish households there, they're notoriously known for having very contentious discussions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
In fact, there is a there's a very good argument to be made. I got this from Yaron Brook, actually, from the Ayn Rand Institute, even though I think he's wrong on a lot of stuff. Very smart point. And he's Israeli.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
He was he once said one of the reasons why Jewish kids tend to be a little more advanced when it comes to reading and writing is because you sit at the table at like the age of two or three at a Jewish Jewish meal and you have to defend your position and your point. And if not, your uncle would just say that's stupid. You almost have to reason at a young age.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
I don't know if you can sympathize with that or not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
And so it's built into Jewish culture that you better come with a good idea and a good argument. If not, the adult will not just treat you as a kid. It'll be you got to really kind of fasten and sharpen your reason. So Jennifer, I'm going to pray for you. I know that this is very difficult, but the Lord is with you. And read your Bible going into that situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
And I'll leave you with a Bible verse. 1 Corinthians 16, 13. Be on guard, stand firm in the faith, and be courageous and be strong. And Jennifer, send me an email how it goes, and maybe the Holy Spirit will be at work. God bless you. Thank you. All right, Anthony. Anthony, what is on your mind? Thank you for being a member. What's up?

Commentaries are written by theologians or pastors where they go verse by verse and chapter by chapter and offer commentary and explanation on what you are reading. John MacArthur, who is a phenomenal person and just amazing. He has grace to you ministries. He is one of the most disciplined and thoughtful and impactful fighters for Christ. of this era.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Yes, it does. It's a great question. It is. Look, if a state doesn't want to frack, it is going to be a state's right decision. However, and it is a big however, there's a fair amount. And this is where I think Trump has some leverage of national forest in New York, if I'm not mistaken. So I don't know if it's all state forest or national forest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
But National Forest is, of course, governed by the Department of Interior. So there I mean, right. There is a major. So the Adirondack Mountains, I think, is largely state governed. But they're right. Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Yeah. I think there are some national forests nearby. I could be wrong. With that being said, is that Kathy Hochul should rescind the moratorium on fracking because it would create so many jobs for the people in New York. Look what is happening in Pennsylvania. And I think it is an insult and a tragedy that New York is not doing the same thing. Anthony, thanks so much. Really appreciate it.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Well, yeah. I mean, we also have turning point here as well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Yeah, well, first, I will say there is hope. And I agree with you that it has gone south and we need to kind of turn this around. But let's look at everything that we accomplished this last cycle. It was President Trump's best ever performance in the state of Arizona, a five and a half point victory, almost 200,000 votes over Kamala Harris.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
We are full speed ahead to win back the governor's race, the attorney general and the secretary of state's race. And I think we're going to turn this into the Florida of the West. It's not going to be easy, but we're going to be pouring a lot of money in to this state and a lot of attention and a lot of ballot chasing. People say, Charlie, what's your plan for the midterms?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
My number one plan is to defend our home is we're going to get a lot of attention here in Arizona. We have a great following here in Arizona. No, I'm not running for governor. People keep on asking for that. In fact, there was a poll that came out. We haven't talked about this on the program that showed that I was in first place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
If there was a straw poll for governor, it was really something else. And I'm not running. People say, oh, you know, you should run. I said, I'm running Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action doing the show. But to answer your question, we're going to continue to chase votes and to register voters and turn Arizona into a red paradise.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
If I had nothing else going on, it, of course, would be somewhat tempting to run for governor alongside Byron and the vague, because I think Arizona could kick the tail of Florida and Ohio. Are you kidding me? I mean, you want to go be a Florida man in the I-5 corridor or Orlando, or do you want to go live in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
I mean, no offense to Ohio, but you'd be lucky if the sun comes out once in February or March. There is so much untapped potential in Arizona. Again, I'm not running for governor or anything, but the lack of vision that some of these candidates have for Arizona, we should become the AI super capital of the American West, number one. Number two, we should be the desalination capital of the world.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Hi. So first, so I have a almost six month old. And I mean, I've just been super anxious about having to go back to work and everything. So I was just wondering, you know, for the future, does President Trump have any plans for like maternity leave or anything like that, as far as like making it potentially better?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Yeah, I don't think it's going to happen in this bill. I do recommend, you know, homeschooling your kids. I know it might be really tough. So Beatriz, this is a sad state of affairs and you are a victim of a larger economic problem. So I don't mean to pry, but is it one of those things where you have to work in order to support your family with your husband or your partner? Am I fair to say that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Just a wonderful human being. I've had the opportunity to speak with him on our program a couple times. John MacArthur has some of the best Bible commentaries of the modern era. I have almost all the MacArthur commentaries on almost every book of the Bible, just the one, the book of John. Now that might be a little bit heavy for some folks, but
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Yeah, correct. We're in California if that changes anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
This is so important. And Beatriz, here's the problem. And you are a perfect example of this because I would imagine you would rather not work than work. Is that fair? Correct. Yeah. But of course, staying at home is working. Everybody, this is the kicker. In 1985, you could support a family of four in America with 36 weeks of labor. In 2025, it requires 56 weeks of labor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
That's more than 52 weeks, and that's for one person. What does that mean? Elizabeth Warren, believe it or not, wrote the best book, and Beatriz, if you want some light reading, you could read it. This was like 15 years ago. It was called The Two-Income Trap. Beatriz, I think it is wrong that we are forcing new mothers back into the workforce because our economic model is so screwed up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
I say that as a conservative. There is nothing more noble than raising your kids. There is nothing more noble than raising your children. And so incomes are not keeping up enough to be able to raise kids the way you want to. And so instead you have to do daycare and all that. So here's the only thing that I would recommend, Beatriz, and just my one call to action.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Do whatever you possibly can to try to cost save. Try to not work all the time to be there to raise your child. That is time you'll never get back. I know it's so hard. And I know because of the cost of living and because of inflation, it's difficult. But that is my piece of advice. I have pushed for paid family leave for quite some time. I think we should have it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
And look, there's a lot of work from home options as well. Home office, things of that nature. God bless you, Beatriz. And thank you for being a member. Let's send her a signed hat, Daisy. Charlie Kirk here. When faced with a threat, you might think of lethal force, but consider a less lethal option like Burna to avoid legal issues tied to firearms.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
As a strong advocate for the right to bear arms, I value diverse defensive options, and Burna offers an effective alternative. Proudly assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Burna's less lethal pistol launchers loaded with tear gas and kinetic ammunition can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes, allowing you to safely escape or call for help while reducing the risk of severe injury.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Burna is about preventing tragedy and preserving life without the consequences of using lethal measures. It's legal in all 50 states, requires no background checks, and over 500,000 units are in the hands of responsible citizens and law enforcement. Burna can be shipped directly to your door. I've personally tested the Burna pistol and can vouch for its effectiveness and its ease of use.

I would encourage you to work through other supplementary texts that are biblical that can help fasten your faith. Anything written by C.S. Lewis, mere Christianity written, read in harmony and in parallel with Two, reading the Bible is terrific. Anything by Lee Strobel, especially Case for Christ, talks a lot about apologetics. It will give you more firm foundation for your faith.

If I was advising the Canadian side. So what I would say, I like Ezra's idea. I would try to bring both our countries closer together. Number one, I would advise them to try to expedite the Keystone XL pipeline. Number two, be willing to sell the $13 trillion of oil sands. Number three. I would use the Canadian troopers to really shut down the northern border. It's just non-negotiable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
The advice I would give is I'd say, look, we are going to help secure this border, America, so you no longer have terrorists flowing across the border. That's the advice that I would give. Here's my also public advice, for whatever it's worth. I think that all of our attention needs to be on the Mexican drug cartels and the Chinese Communist Party. We should tariff Mexico for harboring cartels.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
We should tariff China for obvious reasons. Those are the two. In fact, I think we should bring Canada closer to us to go after the Mexican drug cartels. The Mexican drug cartels have done enormous damage to our country. That is my advice. Thanks so much for being a member, man. Thanks. Really appreciate it.

And then, of course, my friend, Dennis Prager, who continue your prayers for Dennis Prager, by the way. I visited Dennis Prager in the hospital last week. and he's fighting very hard. He's making significant progress. He is in a much better position than he was back when I saw him in December. He's in a far better position. But still, keep that legend in your prayers.

He wrote something called the Rational Bible, Genesis, Exodus. He hasn't yet published Leviticus, but I told him in the hospital, you better get that last of the... of the Bible commentary series done, and he was very supportive of that. He has Numbers and then Deuteronomy. Genesis, written by Dennis Prager, is a game changer. And then finally, find some Bible-based podcasts and podcasters.

Cameron says Charlie couldn't come to your event in Tennessee, but want to know how it was. Looked like a huge crowd. It was probably the best we've ever had tied for first, I would say, with the University of Georgia. Now understand, it's a very difficult thing. If we could put up some of the pictures of the University of Tennessee stop. It's a very difficult technical thing.

And if I could just brag on the amazing Turning Point USA team, I hope you understand that these events just don't come ex nihilo. They don't just come out of nothing.

But it was a really amazing event largely because of the venue. You see at Florida State, it was great. But most of the kids left because I'm sitting at a table. I can only look at maybe a thousand kids. where at University of Tennessee, it was an amphitheater, and I was able to look at like 3,000 people all at once. Oh, it was magical.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Yeah, so it's a good question. The person who's asking it doesn't understand human nature. So the Constitution was not written for the times. It was written to stand the test of time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
The Constitution, first and foremost, alongside the Declaration, and Dr. Larry Arnn in his book, The Founder's Key, talks about this, that the Declaration and the Constitution are one document in the same, is first and foremost an analysis, an argument on human nature. It was about the order of things, as the classics would say.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
You see, every founding father was studied in the classics of Socrates and Plato and Aristotle and Aquinas. They knew their great ideas and their great thinkers. So the Constitution has eternal truth within it. The eternal truth that not one man should govern. The Constitution spreads power over time, and it spreads power over land. In fact, it gives states rights.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
It diffuses power in very unique ways. So, Ashlyn, I'm not able to kind of give you the entire Constitution speech that I would like to for the sake of time, but here's what I can direct you to. is that the best of all the Hillsdale online courses is the Hillsdale online course, Intro to the Constitution. In fact, Ryan can attest to this. I have been studying it again the last couple of days.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
I re-listen and re-take the Hillsdale online course on Constitution 101 once a year. And Ashton, you'll realize the profundity and the brilliance of what our founding fathers authored. Because in order to have a free government, you must have a form and a structure that respects and responds to the idea that liberty is, is not man's idea, but it is God's idea.
The Charlie Kirk Show

What county is he in? I'm just curious.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
So a couple things. Number one, obviously don't give up. Number two, though, this is largely why at our high school program we are renaming and rebranding the Turning Point High School chapters, which will still be that in practice. to calling them Club America. It'll be a lot harder for high school teachers to deny them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
I think you can resonate the wisdom behind that, and the high school department has been pushing for that for a while. And it's nothing against Turning Point, but you get it. You're 15, 16 years old. These teachers are skittish. And so they will be Club America chapters brought to you by Turning Point USA, which I think is brilliant.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
And it'll be a lot harder for these teachers to kind of say no to that. I wish I had better advice other than he has a constitutional right to charter a chapter of his choosing. I think he should appeal to the administration, appeal to somebody, say, hey, can just some teacher sign on to this? And this is a culture of intimidation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?
Our Turning Point USA young patriots, they experience this on a daily basis. But I'd love to send a note of encouragement to him and also maybe a signed book. Last thing I'll say is this, is that even if it doesn't work out, the process and the difficulty that he has to experience will mature him and will make him a better, stronger young man as he grows up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 215: Learning the Bible? Lefty Family? Solving US/Canada Relations?

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Afghan Whistleblower Leading a Hegseth Counterattack
I want to just emphasize what he said at the end, the tale of that, that Zelensky has to be ready to make a deal. You know, that is a statement that not a single major American politician has said since the beginning of the war. It's always, oh, we have to just support Ukraine until they win. We have to defeat the Russian monster. OK, but what about making a deal?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Afghan Whistleblower Leading a Hegseth Counterattack
coming to the table, ending this war. President Trump also commented on Pete Hegseth, and he says he loves the military. He loves the military a lot, and he has the back 100%. He also commented on the drones flying over New Jersey. saying that there's something weird going on there. By the way, we're going to be covering a lot of ground on the drone story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Afghan Whistleblower Leading a Hegseth Counterattack
But isn't it refreshing just to hear from a president who is able to, without any notes, any preparedness, take open questions from the media, be able to have back and forth, dive into any possible topic, Syria, Ukraine, Russia, Turkey, economy, soft bank, investment, inflation. TikTok, President Trump says he has a very warm spot for TikTok. He says that in the press conference.

No teleprompter, no rehearsed, just off the cuff. What's the best question you have? Masterclass in handling the media and directing the news cycle. And I think they're trying to hand over a damaged country to President Trump. We already know what they've done with inflation and the open border. But there's some suspicious stuff, not just happening with the drones, but internationally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Afghan Whistleblower Leading a Hegseth Counterattack
There are some things bubbling up with Syria, Russia, Ukraine, the Israel situation. And President Trump is about to be handed. Very difficult situation on January 20th. And that is, by the way, an interference and an interruption in the peaceful transition of power. Isn't the whole idea of the peaceful transition of power that you're not going to try to ruin the country on the way out?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Afghan Whistleblower Leading a Hegseth Counterattack
President Trump is going to be inheriting new problems that he wasn't even campaigning against. Problems that he was not even able to bring and advocate to the American people. Our next guest is Lieutenant Colonel Stuart Scheller. He is leading vets for Pete Hegseth, all about Pete Hegseth's confirmation battle. And also, we're going to talk about drones over New Jersey.

Are you ready to lose weight but not sure where to start? I understand. I was right where you are two years ago. Let me tell you why I chose the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition. Her program is based on years of research and is science-based. Second, the PhD program starts nutrition. There is so much more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Afghan Whistleblower Leading a Hegseth Counterattack
They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind, and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place. There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change. And finally, a probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds. Look, they're amazing. If you want to lose weight, you got to go to myphdweightloss.com.

I was just texting with Dr. Ashley Lucas today. If you're ready to lose weight for the last time, call 864-644-1900. Go online at myphdweightloss.com. Do what I did and what hundreds of my listeners have done and call today, 864-644-1900. I recommend their program. Dr. Asha Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
It's a great idea. That is actually a fascinating idea I haven't thought about because I think – and Blake is here. Can the Surgeon General do that unilaterally or does that take an act of Congress, Blake? I mean that's a very interesting question, isn't it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
No, no, but, I mean, there are Surgeon General warnings on certain products. So look that up. Very smart point. Look, as far as the number one thing that we can do and that we should do is that we should have robust age verification. Now, I can't remember the status of this because Texas required age verification and then Pornhub canceled all of their services in Texas. Is that right? Yeah. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
They also did that in Utah. Is that ongoing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
No, it's very interesting. Somebody recently gave me, and they're very nice, the sunglasses that Facebook has, Meta. They're the Meta Ray-Bans. And on the back of the Meta Ray-Ban container is a California general warning saying that these might give you cancer. And it's like pretty big, actually. It's like pretty big.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
It says state of California law requires that you know that these glasses might give you cancer. So I don't know if I want to wear these anymore. Anyway, so to get back to our member here, a friend here. Great question. And I'm sorry. No. Manny. Manny. Sorry. Manny Marshall. I got two names here. Manny. Age verification is the fight. That is the fight is that we must.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
You do not have a constitutional right if you're 15 or 16 years old. to watch pornography. I'm sorry. That's just ridiculous. There should be robust age protections and we could proceed from there. But I think a much more open, um, public health discussion about how pornography is bad for the health of a nation is 100% legitimate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
Now I do cringe a little bit though at some public health discussions because they're going to use this to ban firearms. I'm telling you, Blake will agree that they've already started to say that firearm deaths are a public health emergency. Um, which is ridiculous. And so you have to be a little careful as far as how it could be extrapolated to other policy measures.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
But pornography is poison to our society and culture. I'm not for overall banning things. I don't like a heavy hand of government if it's not totally necessary. So I think an immediate step is robust age verification. All right. Thank you so much. Folks, your halls are decked with holly, and the sound of Andy Williams on the radio tells us to be of good cheer.

So I just I'm thrilled you're coming because as a member, AmFest is way better as a member and it's good as it is. So as far as the breakout sessions, let me just read some of these to you. Some might apply to you. We have faith in action, faith in America. We have a deep dive into the 2024 election results. The mom vote securing America's future. Gen Z, the great American tomorrow.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
We have the story of how we left the left from people that form on the left. Blue collar conservatism. We have We Are the Media, Dismantling DEI, Chasing America's Catholics. This one that might actually apply to you, voter registration across America. We have Vamos, Chasing the American Latino Vote. We have Deep State Arabella by Tyler Boyer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
We have the King's Council, Faith, Law and Policy, Legal Impact Under the Trump Administration. We also have one with Turning Point Academy. So I don't know if any of those speak to you directly, but breakouts are a huge part of AmFest. The voter registration one in particular, I think might be helpful. And also just diagnosing and dissecting the 2024 results.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
Super thrilled you're coming, Marshall. Come find me. Wear your Ducks hat. And my current schedule is that if Oregon makes the Cotton Bowl, we're going to probably go to the Cotton Bowl. Blake is just cringing. Can I get a live shot of Blake right now rolling his eyes? I can feel it from Phoenix. See, this is Blake. It's so confusing. Oregon's in the Rose Bowl.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
Mm hmm. So let's start on Cotton. So let me start with the disagreement, then I'll get to the agreement, because there's a lot of good with Cotton. I'm on different worldview planets with Senator Cotton on foreign policy. He is a neoconservative. There's just no other way to put it. He has learned better than a lot of neocon Republicans.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
Joining us now is Scott. Scott, how are we doing? And thank you for being a member.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
He could have been even more aggressive like Lindsey Graham, but he is definitely a neoconservative. And that is not a pejorative. That is an insult. That is an accurate description. However, I would say this, Cody. Tom Cotton is excellent on immigration and he's excellent on crime. Those are two things he's very, very good on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
Remember, he was the one that was publicly encouraging President Trump to use the Insurrection Act against all the Floyd riots in 2020, something President Trump probably actually should have done. He wrote the op-ed in The New York Times and it started all this backlash. So Tom Cotton, his stances on Russia, Ukraine and other conflicts, I just I don't share them at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
However, domestically, he's been very, very good on immigration and crime. I can't say that about Bozeman. I've never met him. I have no relationship with him. He is also a neocon, but he does not, under any voting pattern record or public commentary, strike me as somebody who's quote unquote good on any issue. So Tom Cotton, I think...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
We're just not going to have the same views on America First or on foreign policy, but definitely very strong. And I will say this. Senator Cotton always texts me back. He's always very polite, very open to feedback, open to disagreements, whereas Bozeman never met him. Thank you, Cody. Merry Christmas. Thanks for your support. Thank you. Let's do this.

if there is not abrupt changes from these sitting Republicans, and if they keep on sending money to Ukraine while we're being invaded on the southern border, in these deep red states, and I hope you understand, I hope everyone in the audience understands, and Scott, you do too, these are for deep, deep red states. We're not doing this in Maine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
We're not doing this where we might lose a Senate seat. Idaho is comfortably red, okay? It is comfortably red. And you have someone like Russ Fulcher, who would be a game-changer, Scott, do you think that the Republican primary voters in Idaho would be welcome to such a primary challenge?

Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
So to answer your question, we are going to be doing some campus events. We might do an event, depending on the behavior of Crapo and Risch and their posture towards President Trump's nominees in January. We might end up doing a Give Trump His Cabinet event, but we need to pick our, we need to, we're definitely going to Louisiana with Mr. Cassidy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
And for that little tour, we're going to test the waters here. But look, if you voted to give money to Ukraine and turn the back on the necessary, uh, will of the voters. We're not, we're not going to, uh, we're not going to allow that to happen. So you're very well spoken, Scott. Um, I want our team. Yep. Please, please. One last thought.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
I love it. Daisy's going to get me your contact information. I want to pick your brain. I also... Maybe you can help me get to Russ Fulcher. I'm sure I can get that done.

That's a good question. I don't know how to answer that. Again, you're never going to get everything you want in a candidate. I'm going to let Pam Bondi answer that for herself. I'm against red flag laws, but just Pam Bondi has a phenomenal upside. She's a terrific person. She's tough. She's smart. She'd have to answer for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
I don't know the details of it, but if she is in favor of red flag laws, I'm not. And so that would just be one of those instances where we don't align on everything. And that's OK, because she's great on lawfare. She's great on so many different things. So and then as far as the surgeon general pick, I'm on a different planet of a worldview than her. But that's the president's decision.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 207: Saving Idaho? Surgeon General and Smut? Amfest Breakout Sessions?
And we will allow the president to choose his cabinet as he sees fit. But do not see the do not see the world the way she does. That's for sure. Thank you, Julie. Really appreciate it. William. William is next. William, thank you for being a member. What's on your mind?

Got it. So these off-election years can be very important. The Democrats have this Politico article, six rock star Democrats that could be the next governor of New Jersey.

How They Ruined California
Hey, everybody. Today on the Charlie Kirk Show, how did they ruin California? One of the great tragedies of our country we explore regarding Gavin Newsom's 2028 presidential ambitions. Secondly, we also have Senator Roger Marshall to talk about the latest in the U.S. Senate and more. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and subscribe to our podcast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
In Los Angeles, literally in Southern California, you can surf, ski, and drive a quad in the desert all in one day. And in Los Angeles, you can also loot, shoot up with heroin, and get your gender reassigned in one day. It's amazing. Only in California is all of that possible. You can go and steal $900 worth of stuff at Walgreens.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
You can just go take a dump on the side of the street, and you can get taxpayer-funded benefits if you're from Nicaragua. It's amazing. Only in California is that possible. And I say this with a great deal of lament. I spend a ton of time in California, and every time I'm landing in California, Andrew would tell you this, and Mikey will tell you this. I say the same thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
I say it is one of the great crimes against humanity that they ruined this slice of heaven. And I believe it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
When you're landing into Orange County at John Wayne Airport, when you're landing into San Diego, when you're landing into Burbank or you're landing into LAX and you just see the pristine nature of what God gave America, it goes to show how we human beings can mess up the pristine, the serenity that was once the untouched jewel of America. And now Gavin Newsom wants to be president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Look, I hate to break it to you, pal. If you can't fill up a fire hydrant, you can't be president. I don't want to hear anything about water levels or all this. Again, I'm far from a water expert. I'm not on some water reclamation board. But isn't it, if you have a surplus of water, you don't have an issue with the water? The reservoir that was supposed to be full...
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
has been empty as of February last year, and no one even told the fire department. And the woman they promoted and pay $750,000 a year to handle that job didn't tell anybody. And the reservoir that is supposedly to be working was under maintenance. Under maintenance. California is, without a doubt, one of the great test projects, one of the great petri dishes... of why politics matters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
And I want all of you to remember this. If you're a pastor, if you are a person that says, I don't like politics, if you don't care about politics, politics will care about you. And politics can ruin a beautiful gift from the heavens like California.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
objectively one of the greatest places on the planet to live and now it's not any longer it's become a raging insult to all of our senses it's like over overwhelming from the bums to the illegals to the cartel members to the inflation to the it's just you can't process it and that shows that politics does matter and staying on the ball does matter and let california be the best example

This is a victory for everybody in the audience that decided to go pick up your shovel and put your working boots on and get out in the trenches, get out in the streets, and make it happen.

Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency. Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule.

The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Senator, thank you for taking the time. Great to see you. Senator, our audience is wondering, what is the status of President Trump's nominees in front of the U.S. Senate and the likelihood of their confirmation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
That is so encouraging to hear. And I know that there's been some media narratives that Bobby Kennedy can't get the votes, that Tulsi Gabbard can't get the votes. So, Senator, I want to lean in on one of those, which is Bobby Kennedy. Bobby Kennedy, of course, former Democrat, ran for the presidency as a Democrat, but has been very big on Make America Healthy Again. You are a physician.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
and you're known as Doc Marshall as well as Senator Marshall. How should we think about the Bobby Kennedy nomination to lead health and human services?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
I'm thrilled to hear that, Senator. And also, it's about time that we have a health and human services secretary that cares about the health care, not just sick care, not just trying to get people routinely on drugs. Can you speak about that as a physician, that getting to root causes of the chronic disease epidemic?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Taking back the nation, taking back the country from a group of people who hate it, a group of people who have contempt for it. The challenge in front of this new administration, and they are going to hit the ground running. I could tell you from my short conversations with the president, I was able to see the president yesterday, actually on Friday as well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
I'm sure you have many stories throughout your career that just throwing more drugs at the problem is not always the solution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
So, Senator, the lineup looks like this. Pete Hegseth, his hearings start tomorrow, it looks like. Doug Burgum and Doug Collins, Marco Rubio, then the following day, Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi, John Ratcliffe, Chris Wright, Russ Vogt, Sean Duffy. So, Senator, walk us through the hearings. This is a super accelerated pace, is it not, versus prior administrations?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Yeah, so I just want to reiterate something. I don't think our audience quite understands how serious the recruiting crisis is in our military. Can you just reinforce some of the numbers there and how this puts our preparedness and our national security at risk?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
This is a motivated team that is ready to dive right in, that wants to dive right in.

We have extraordinary potential in this country, over-the-top type of potential. And it will only be realized, it will only be actualized
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
So, Senator, I want to get your thoughts on the legislative agenda and schedule outside of the one bill to build debate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Are there other items that you're going to be pushing for some skinnier bills that can maybe pass the House and the Senate without getting 60 votes or maybe getting 60 votes, maybe in regards to restraining the Chinese Communist Party or what other legislative priorities do you hope the Senate majority champions in this very consequential legislative year?

Finally, Senator, I know you were serving in the House during the first Trump administration. And then, of course, you got promoted up to the Senate. What lessons as we go into this final week? I'm asking this of all of our lawmaker guests. What lessons did you learn in the first administration that we can make sure not to repeat this one to make sure that we have a successful administration?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Because the first one was terribly chaotic the first 18 months. Any lessons, Senator?

If this administration continues to stay on that narrow path of fulfilling the mandate and look at the roster of changemakers that we have so far across the board, Bobby Kennedy, HHS, Kash Patel at the FBI, Tulsi Gabbard at the director of national intelligence. Changemaker after changemaker to be able to fulfill this once in a multiple generations mandate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
The situation in front of us right now, is this potentially is the end of lawfare. The end of the lawfare regime in its current composition and its current structure. Lawfare is dead. You see, the American people saw it for what it was. It was naked political intervention trying to get a desired outcome. And as Charlemagne says, it's pure political theater.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
They were never going to actually convict a former president. or reforming or sitting president. I disagree with that, though. I think that they were going to try to convict him. I think that what got in the way was the American people. What got in the way was you. You got in the way of our plan. You got in the way of their plan. Lawfare is one of the more dangerous developments of a society.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
By the way, Charlemagne went on to say, This is not a win. Who cares if you call him a convicted felon? You still got to call him president for the next four years. I mean, that was our line first, but yes. Not only that, he's going to be a president with no, he owes nothing to anyone. And the left kind of knows it. Have you noticed how demoralized the Democrats are?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Where is their big resistance? Here's a very interesting question. I was just going through the inauguration schedule, and our team will be there broadcasting live. Here's a very interesting question. Blake or Andrew can find it, or maybe Ryan. Can anyone find if there is the pink hat march the day after?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Remember last time in 2017 they had this ridiculous march of Madonna saying she's going to blow up the White House and there were like 500,000 people in D.C.? Does the left have anything comparable planned? Please find, I mean, look at all their grassroots networks. Do they have a single thing planned right now? Do they have a protest? Do they have a big march?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
They might have a couple things here and there, but where is the massive response that we saw in 2017? The resistance has given way to the acquiescence. And we the people got in the way. And the left is just defeated. That's why you have Gavin Newsom coming out. Gavin Newsom replied to one of my tweets this weekend. which by the rumor is that Gavin Newsom's son very well might watch this program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Eric Bolin's laughing. It's true. Gavin Newsom's replying to my tweets agreeing with me. Can we get the tweet up here? Gavin Newsom is like a big Charlie Kirk fan all of a sudden. He's saying, I agree. Violent criminals need to be locked up. What are you doing here? I could tell you. They realize they are so off the mark of where the center of the country is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
And the non-ideological naked political opportunists are trying to adjust in real time. Gavin Newsom responding to tweets. We have, oh, there is the People's March on January 18th. Okay, so there is something. But that's before the inauguration. Oh, there's going to be a Women's March. I have to go. Oh, my goodness. Thank you, Blake. This is a gift.

I have to go and interview people at the Women's March. Will Real America's Voice provide the hats? We're going to go into the streets. Well, they're going into the streets. We're going to go start interviewing people at the Women's March. On the 18th, I could go to one of the inaugural balls, Women's March. I think the Women's March will be much better content.

Literally in exactly seven days, President Donald Trump says, so help me God. In exactly seven days. The prep work that the president has put in and the transition team has just been phenomenal. It's been across the board. And then it is right in. Executive orders, configuring agencies, solving some of the most intractable problems that are in front of us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
It's not going to be easy, but the ascendant political voice is that of the people, not of the political ruling class. You are in the room. President Trump has brought you into the room in a record way. We must stay disciplined and humble, motivated and hungry throughout this entire process. In seven days, President Donald Trump will make history.

to this movement will be fulfilled and it is not the ending but it is the beginning the beginning of a new dawn of america in seven days president donald trump will say so help me god that will say we are taking back this country from the people that have done such remarkable and intractable damage to it a great example
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
of somebody who has done such damage to this country and is a contrast to the ascendant political ideology, which is the people, is what we've seen in California with Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom, remember when Democrats in California called a special session just to protect illegal immigrants from accountability? That is Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom wants to be president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
He is more ambitious than Lucifer. This guy wants to be president more than anybody we've ever seen before. Democrats spent $18 billion on illegals who pay $8.5 billion in taxes and only $3 billion on forest management. In one week, President Donald Trump will say, so help me God.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
And one of the reasons why he won is people like Gavin Newsom that have been running the country into the gutter, have been running the country over a cliff. And now entire neighborhoods have completely vanished and disappeared in California. Remember this story. Gavin Newsom in California reaches $15 million to Trump-proof the state. This is right here. This is as of today.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
So while their state burns and people don't have homes, what is... The priority of Gavin Newsom to Trump-proof California. California Democrats have reached a $50 million agreement to shore up state and local legal defenses against the incoming Trump administration just a week ahead of the president-elect's inauguration, Politico writes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Half the money would go to fending off any mass deportation plan the new president might enact in his administration. Now, time out. So they're spending money to try to thwart federal law enforcement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
The move, the first of its kind in the nation that positions California to lead a second term resistance against Donald Trump, comes as Republicans bash state Democrat lawmakers for focusing on the highly partisan issue, even as the southern part of the state suffers from historically devastating fires. So wait a second.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
They're going to pay money to make sure the federal government can't do its job. How is this any different? I want someone to prove me wrong. Any different than southern states that were resisting the federal government that led to the Little Rock Nine and the militarization of the National Guard and the desegregation of schools?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
How is this any different than Gavin Newsom saying we are going to thwart federal supremacy when it comes to immigration law? Democrats want to lock in their state's decline and failure, and Gavin Newsom better be careful.

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

How They Ruined California
This very well might be against a lot of laws that say we are not going to, we're going to pay money to actively make sure the federal government can't do what the voters want to do. California is in a state of mind right now where effectively they're saying, don't you dare try and help save us. Don't you dare try and help us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Meanwhile, we spent over $200 billion to Ukraine, but California is Trump-proofing their state. This sanctuary state stuff. should have forced the standoff long ago. And this is coming. You better believe it. Look, we're going to be able to do mass deportations in Miami and Orlando, in Columbia, South Carolina, in Augusta, Georgia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
But as soon as the mass deportations start coming for Sacramento, California, it's going to be very interesting. Who's in charge of immigration policy? The states are not in charge of the federal immigration policy, period.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Politico continues, the deal includes $25 million Newsom has proposed for the State Department of Justice to fight federal government in court shortly after Trump's re-election in November, plus $25 million more proposed by state Senate leaders to defend immigrants against deportation, detention, and wage theft.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
The $25 million proposed by the Senate would fund grants for legal nonprofits and immigration support centers. Senate Budget Chair Scott Weiner. Sound familiar? This guy never goes away. That freak never disappears. He is behind nearly every creepy, bad, treasonous, awful idea in the state of California.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Quote, this funding agreement cements California's readiness to serve as a bulwark against Trump's extremist agenda. Floor votes on the so-called special session package could come as soon as this week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
This would give Gavin Newsom time to sign the deal before Trump's inauguration on January the 20th and shift focus away from the session's partisan feud to how Democrats are responding to the unfolding disaster in Los Angeles. So just so you understand this, for all of you watching in California or understand California politics, as... Los Angeles is burning to a crisp.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
The priority of California lawmakers is to create a $50 million fund to prevent President Trump from getting rid of cartel members and getting rid of illegal migrants. Representatives for the governor's office and legislative leaders did not respond to requests for comment, as the deal is expected to be announced as early as Monday, today.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Republicans have agitated for a special session focused solely on fires, and Newsom told Pod Save America over the weekend he's happy to do whatever moves the needle forward. What does it even mean, moves the needle forward? When asked about calling such a special session... He said he and legislative leaders were going to discuss whether that was necessary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
I mean, can we just remark on how Politico has just become a press release service for radical Democrats? I mean, there's no questioning. This is just disgusting, naked, partisan garbage from Politico. Newsom and legislators representing Los Angeles have also been in Southern California since the fires escalated. But that has not neutralized GOP critics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
At a time when California should be laser-focused on responding to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, Democrats' lawmakers' priority is creating a $50 million fund.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Weiner continues, Senate Democrats are particularly proud to provide funding for providers of legal aid services, which we know our communities need best and our best positions to defend and scale the millions of individuals and families that will be impacted by the incoming administration's extremist agenda.

By the way, can East Palestine or North Carolina defend get some of this Marshall Plan money that Gavin Newsom is talking about? Why do taxpayers outside of California have to subsidize Democrats' incompetence and potentially criminal negligence? If we had any sort of a fair justice system still in this country, Gavin Newsom would be in federal prison.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
If we had any sort of fair composition here... Gavin Newsom would pay a very, very heavy and significant price for not just the negligence, but for funding the blocking of federal law enforcement. The equivalent would be this. Prove me wrong. What if a governor of Alabama... told his local officials, do not hand over January 6th protesters to the FBI.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
In fact, we are going to create a fund to make sure that January 6th protesters are not handed over to the FBI. The world would explode, and they'd call him a traitor and a threat to democracy.

There are beautiful parts of Alaska and Hawaii, but all of those kind of have downsides. If you live in Orange County, outside of June gloom, there is not a lot of downside there. It is as beautiful and as pristine as it gets. My theory when it comes to California is how far can you push a people? while the weather's really good? And the answer is you can actually push them really far.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
We always joke around, you know, what is the importance of weather when it comes to lifestyle? It's actually a lot. Sunlight and weather plays a lot into the human psyche. Turns out that you could turn your state into... a seismic hellhole.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Taxpayer-funded abortions, gender reassignment surgery, illegals everywhere, critical race theory in the schools, terrible economy, high inflation, and people will still live there. Now, California does have a declining population. It does have people that are leaving for my home state of Arizona. However, it's remarkable the power that Living in Santa Barbara has on some people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
In seven days, we have the inauguration of the 47th president of the United States, the first time since Grover Cleveland that a president will serve non-consecutive terms. It's just remarkable. And all of you in this audience who worked so hard, who chased ballots, who registered voters, this is a victory for all of you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
Turning it into just a communist dystopian hellscape. I always joke around with producer Andrew. I said, so what is the breaking point? You know, when they can medically kidnap your kids? And I actually see it from his perspective and Sonia Friend's perspective. When California is good, it's the best place on the planet. There's some moments where you say, what am I doing here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
It cost me $95 to fill up my car with a tank of gas, and I just spent $700 at a local grocery store, and I can't afford rent. Then you're driving down Pacific Coast Highway. It's 3 p.m. on a Sunday afternoon with the windows down, and you say, I'll pay anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How They Ruined California
I don't care. And the wind is coming through, and you're listening to the radio, and you say, why doesn't everyone live here? And then you pull over at a stoplight, and then there's some bum defecating after he just shot up with heroin. And you have this incredible paradoxical contradiction.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Okay, everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk Show, Ben Shapiro joins us for the entire episode to speak about why we should pardon Derek Chauvin. This is an incredibly important episode. You should listen intently, send it to your liberal friends, and talk about how we went so amiss. during the summer of 2020. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
But there was a moment during COVID where it seemed as if the entire society exploded. There was a moment that was caught on video that triggered. what is now known as Floydapalooza. We weren't allowed to think about it at the time. We were only allowed to feel. We weren't allowed to ask very simple questions about what's really going on here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
There's another element to this as well, which you touched on briefly. There's so much Not just suspicion. There's something wrong with the original shift from the Hennepin County Medical Examiner report. The original county report said something completely different than the later report. And our friend from Alpha News, Liz Collin, has been on this since the very beginning.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
And she deserves a lot of credit, Liz Collin. But there is evidence to suggest that the Hennepin County Medical Examiner was pressured in actually the report that was being issued. Floyd had a lethal dose of fentanyl in his system, as shown by his autopsy, and there's evidence that he quickly ingested drugs, as you mentioned, to hide them from the cops. He also had COVID and heart disease.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
History, economics, the great works of literature. Did you study these things in school? Probably not. Or even if you did, maybe it's time for an enjoyable refresher. Hillsdale College is offering more than 40 free online courses, including their newest course on totalitarian novels.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
In this free eight-lecture course, you'll learn from Hillsdale College president Larry Arnn as he goes in depth on four novels, 1984, Brave New World, Darkness at Noon, and That Hideous Strength. I love all four. Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
More importantly, they can show us that faith, family, and friends are worth fighting for. Maybe you read these books a long time ago in school. Maybe you've heard others talk about them, and they seem a little intimidating. Let Hillsdale College, America's greatest college, help you make the most of them. Go right now to charlieforhillsdale.com to enroll.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
There's no cost, and it's easy to get started. That is charlieforhillsdale.com, C-H-A-R-L-I-E, forhillsdale.com. Ben, just mention briefly here, the autopsy was totally coerced, strong-armed. Usually we look at autopsies and say, well, there's no way politics could get in the way of a medical examination report.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
But it shows here that there was such a thrust, there was a willingness to reach a conclusion that America's racist during this political season. Remember, Trump was president during this. There was political pressure. Speak about the political pressure in the medical examination process.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
And as a result, the man in the video, Derek Chauvin, is now going to spend the rest of his life in prison. Well, now further examination allows us to reanalyze this cultural flashpoint. And a very brave man when it comes to this particular topic, and a great man, Ben Shapiro, is willing to speak out and not just ask the question, but advocate for a pardon for Derek Chauvin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
And again, just to put this in the most blunt terms, Chauvin did not crush Floyd's neck. He did not crush Floyd's neck. That must be repeated. So, Ben, explain to our audience then how on earth federal charges got involved here and therefore the President Trump wrinkle and angle.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Because typically if there is a police situation where if the police acts improperly, usually the police officer will be handled by local authorities. There might be a DOJ investigation, albeit rare, but there were federal charges as well against Derek Chauvin. What were they? And why do you believe that Derek Chauvin deserves a pardon from the president of the United States?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
And so a pardon, would that get him out of jail? Because there's also state charges as well. So explain to our audience how that works.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Joining us now is Ben Shapiro, host of The Ben Shapiro Show, and also the website is pardonderek.com, co-founder of The Daily Wire. Ben, welcome to the program. Hey, Charlie. Thanks so much for having me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
What, what do you think is a lesson for the audience and for us in times of hysteria to not repeat the same mistakes? Because in some ways I wish I would have even spoken out even more during the trial, but this was like top level Verboten. The Overton window has moved dramatically where now this is an acceptable, a little bit boundary pushing, but somewhat acceptable conversation to have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
What is the takeaway for so many people here to make sure the next time the media is force-feeding something like this? And have we adjusted, Ben? Have we adjusted from some of the hysterias they've been trying to push towards us in the last couple of months or years?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
So Ben, I'm going to just say the floor is yours. For some people that have not been following this with great detail, this might make them kind of take a second, like a little pause in a second beat. Why are you advocating for Derek Chauvin's pardon? And what have you learned through the course of your research and your rigorous pursuit of the truth that has led you to this advocacy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
So let's play cut 11. This was then former Vice President Biden before all that happened in 2020. Very important here. He did not caution against violence. Play cut 11.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
That is just one example of hundreds we could play. Ben, what happened next then? Remind the audience of the material increase in crime, in just arson, anarchy in the streets. This was unfortunately... one of the deadlier, more crime-ridden summers since the 1990s because of the misrepresentation of this incident. Ben?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Ben, stay right there. I do want to talk about San Francisco, California, your former home, and Gavin Newsom made some news this last week. Hey, Charlie Kirk here. Ever see your dog slowing down or having health issues and wonder what can I do to make them better?

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
To improve your dog's health, just add a scoop of Ruff Greens. That is ruffgreens.com. Let's play cut 187. Gavin Newsom forgetting that he supported legalized racial discrimination. Play cut 187.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
But also, you did support Prop 16 in 2020, which would have legalized racial prejudice, right? Prop 16 literally would.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
I saw your debate against DeSantis. You're good at this stuff. You know what I'm talking about. Prop 16 would have had legalized racial prejudice, which got defeated by 16 points despite all the institutions. So you're asking me what did wokeism look like? When California, when all the institutions, yourself included, with all due respect, embraced this insane ballot measure. Guess what?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Even the people of California didn't want racial discrimination.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
There was, you know, city council meetings where they said the white people aren't allowed here, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
And so what ends up happening is a broader question of sensible, not racist suburban moms that are like, wait a second, I have an eight-year-old white son. Are you trying to say he's a racist? Yeah. And it creates a backlash that then bubbles up, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Ben, you lived in California for some time. You moved your entire company to a freer state. That is slippery Gavin Newsom. What do you make of that? You could talk more broadly. It doesn't have to just be my conversation with him. His podcast, his attempt to reinvent himself, to move to the middle end. What is the truth of how California has, let's just say, operated in the last decade?

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Ben, I think you should go on the Gavin Newsom podcast. I think that you could prosecute the case in California far better than I did. I try to make it macro. Let me put it this way. I have not had the pleasure of walking by Sepulveda Boulevard and having to walk over homeless people in order to get to the office building.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
I have not had the firsthand experience, which he always, Gavin will always go to the argument from authority. Oh, you don't understand California. We have the biggest, this, the biggest, that, but they are spending down the inheritance of a prior generation and California should never lose population. It's too beautiful. It's too amazing. It has all these assets, period.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
Well, so Ben, I got a good project for you. If you read, I believe the census is the 14th Amendment. It says the census must be done within 10 years, not in 10 years. I think President Trump can call a new census. I think President Trump should call a new census. Why not?
The Charlie Kirk Show

I want to repeat that, everyone, to internalize that. The 1619 Project was largely born, accelerated out of this. Robin DiAngelo's fame was born out of this. We had police departments defunding the police. In fact, you can look at a material increase in crime in both Minneapolis and across the country because of this one incident. Not just the riots. We saw murder rates. We saw arson.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Case To Pardon Derek Chauvin ft. Ben Shapiro
We saw carjackings. We saw widespread gang violence because of one incident. And so, Ben, I want to compliment you for your willingness to speak out on this because it wasn't just one injustice. This was the gateway drug. towards mass anarchy in the streets and an unnecessary thousands of people dying on top of the baseline crime rate. Gentlemen, let's get real for a second.

I certainly hope so, because the reckless growth of the state over the last couple of years, a 53 percent increase in the size and scope spending of government and a 2 percent increase in the population. Is that really Biden's legacy? Biden's legacy in many ways was a disaster across the board. This included.
The Charlie Kirk Show

You look at he left us a growth of the Leviathan, the greatest we've never seen in our country's history. Senator.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
This is the moment, Senator. I mean, you guys have a mandate. You have the numbers. There's no more excuses. Where do you stand on the president calling for a CR to create the space for the reconciliation bill? I'll be honest. I'm tired of doing one CR after the other. But I guess it's a it's a necessity. Convince me, Senator.

Do you want an end to the conflict or do you want the conflict to continue? War is the ugliest thing that human beings do. It is the nastiest thing. If you must engage in war, you should do it for very good reasons, with clear victory in sight. What does success look like in Ukraine? We have been asking this question since the very beginning. What does success look like?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Senator, thank you for your time today. Deeply appreciate it. We'll be watching very closely on what the Senate does. Our audience right now, they are growing impatient because we need to start to see legislative wins, spending cuts, tax cuts, and real reform coming from Congress. There's only so much the president can do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
There's only so much that President Trump can do with signing executive orders. It's time for Congress to act. Thank you, Senator.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Thank you, Senator. Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com. Also in President Trump's sit-down interview with Maria Bartiromo, you talked about one of my favorite topics. And if President Trump is even half successful in getting this done, It will be one of his greatest accomplishments. There never should have been a federal, centralized, Washington, D.C.-based Department of Education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Never should have been. There never should have been a Department of Education that is a bullet bureau controlling what your kids learn, interfering with what education should be. Education, properly understood, is the pursuit of good, true, and beautiful. Teachers should be
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
allowing kids to grow into what they actually are, not carpenters trying to cut them into something that the administrative state wants. The Prussian-German model of education has failed this country. You see, the German model of education is hyper-centralized, technocratic, we're going to give you nothing but skills. You see, our founding fathers were educated classically.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Our founding fathers were educated classically. With local communities studying the ancient texts, our founders understood their Aristotle, Socrates, Plato, Montesquieu. Founding fathers understood the great thinkers that eventually built Western civilization. Education definitionally must be bottom up, not down. Top down.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Many of our founding fathers were even sent abroad to learn at then the greatest universities on the planet. But education then was not what it is today. It was about the Socratic exploration towards truth. Every founding father was classically Christian educated. And boy, did they know their Bible. They knew the roots. They knew the Torah. They knew the story of the Exodus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
They knew Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. They knew Romans, and they knew 1 and 2 Corinthians. We can celebrate America, but if we don't understand that how we educated our founding fathers is one of the reasons why we have such a great country, then we're failing. One of the main reasons we like partnering with Hillsdale College. The current top-down model has bloated budgets, too many bureaucrats,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Dr. Larry Arnn from Hillsdale came on our show and gave us a breathtaking number. There are about 11 million people that work in education in this country. About 7.5 million of the 11 million are not even teachers. They're paper pushers, administrative bureaucrats. They are the bloat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
This is President Trump continuing, calling for the dismantling, the destruction, and the end of the pernicious Department of Education. Play cut 25.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
This means more money for states, but just look at this empirically. The more we have gotten away from a parent-based, family-based, citizen-based, student-based learning model, the more that our standards have decreased. The standards of American education are lackluster. We are like 27th in the industrialized world. It's a true story. Can you guys resend that story that I thought was a parody?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Well, President Trump has been asking this question and saying, why are we spending hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine? Why are we sending $150, $200 billion to Ukraine? What are we getting out of this? You see, it's also very revealing of a retired foreign policy perspective. It is very revealing.
The Charlie Kirk Show

There's a young woman who got honors from her high school. I think I'm getting this right. She was part of the honor society, and she could not read or write, so she's suing her school. It's a real story. She's suing her school. Because they gave her honors, but she cannot read or write. This is it. She graduated high school with honors. It's a true story. CNN.com.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
She graduated high school with honors, but she can't read or write. Now she's suing. That is the Department of Education. She cannot read or write, but she's an honors student. The product of the Department of Education, what we are getting out, is... Not just the lowering of standards, but it is the downfall of our great nation. It's a CNN story.

Just another little addendum on the education problem in this country. The more that we centralize anything that should be personal, the quality will decrease. The federal government has no role in the education of our children. And if you believe it does, then you are a statist. This is a young man who's in college.

So, for example, when we say $40 million on improving the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants, $520 million on ESG consulting, $47 million on learning outcomes in Asia, President Trump's plan is to send every single person in this audience a $5,000 check. Get the money back in your pocket.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Well, that's the plan. We'll see. You see, the money is actually not a pyramid scheme. It's the largest and most ambitious taxpayer refund plan in the history of the country.

of an old vestige of the past where people believe that the Soviet Union and Russia are still the greatest threat to America. Do you remember Barack Obama? This is a great clip to get.

Crews from the District of the Department of Transportation have begun working on what is currently the BLM Plaza in Washington, D.C. It is gone. In fact, I might go by. It's just a couple blocks from here. I might go by and do a video. A little commemoration. for the end of an era, the end of the awokening of the country, might go by and kind of say hello. It's a two-block long mural.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
In fact, there's a bunch of media there. I bet they're going to go try and ask me questions. What, are you a racist? No, I actually don't think that we should have an entire two-block long mural, which, by the way, was painted at the height of Floyd of Palooza. Just a virtue signal outside of the White House.

has shifted over the last 10 years when it comes to Russia, largely because of President Trump. President Trump coming onto the scene, they blamed, wrongly of course, they blamed Russia for the rise of Donald Trump. Ooh, Vladimir Putin and Trump have so much in common. And they helped propagandize the American body politic to believe that
The Charlie Kirk Show

that Russia was our greatest enemy because hating Trump also, therefore, you must hate Putin. Hate Trump, hate Putin. Hate Trump, hate Putin.

President Trump is trying to balance both sides here. You see, President Trump understands that in order to get the Russians to the table, he must also have the Ukrainians internalize that they're not going to get Crimea back. That they might have to concede some land on the eastern parts of Ukraine. This is Barack Obama talking about Russia back in 2012. D.C.

has completely pivoted its foreign policy perspective over the last decade. Play cut 29.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
I hate to say it, but Barack Obama's right. Barack Obama was correct saying that this fixation and this fascination with Russia is antiquated. But you see, one of the major problems is the composition of so many of the lawmakers in Washington, D.C. are fascinated with continuing this fight against Russia. Again, Russia's not a good country. It's not a free society. I'm not envious of Russia.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Russia's not a country that should ever be modeled or mirrored. It's not a good country. But it should not, under any circumstances... in this current setting, be the greatest enemy of the United States of America. That should be the Chinese Communist Party. President Trump continued with Maria Bartiromo and dove into the details.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
We don't have this piece of tape, but basically President Trump said, we're going to bring all the parties to the table and we're going to broker a settlement. We're going to broker a ceasefire, a secession in forces. We ask the question often on this program, qui bono? Who benefits? It is the most operative question when you come across circumstances like this. To who benefits?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
And you have to ask the very simple question. Who benefits from peace? And who benefits from war? Well, who benefits from peace? Well, the people of Ukraine benefit from peace. The people of America benefit from peace. Humanity benefits from peace. But then who benefits from war? The military-industrial complex, oligarchs of the ruling class of Ukraine.

And you have to just say, what is best for our own country? We're going to see a lot of yammering about Ukraine in this next week. But we need to have the prudence and the foreign policy maturity to be willing to say what is best for America. And what is best for America is a peace deal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
A peace deal that will ensure that the war is over, that Putin will not further invade or further march his forces. And maybe we should reopen diplomatic channels with the Russian Federation. It's tempting to just say, well, Russia is a great enemy of the United States. We've made them an enemy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
Instead, we should try to drive a wedge between Russian and Chinese Communist Party marriages, the marriage that's happening on the world stage. That is a threat to the United States of America. That is bad for the United States of America. The Chinese Communist Party is an enemy of the United States, the greatest enemy. The Russian-Ukrainian war, largely unnecessary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The President Wants Peace — Why Doesn't Everyone Else?
There was a peace deal on the table. Russia became our enemy because it was an ideological foe. That regime fell, and there is no reason to keep them our enemy. When the Soviet Union collapsed, it took a lot of very contortionist arguments to keep Russia as an enemy of the United States. While we may have won this election, the fight to restore our great nation is only beginning.

President Trump talked about Zelensky dismantling the Department of Education, the need to rebalance the world towards an America First posture. Let's start with this, and this is very important because there's a lot of controversy around about what's going on with Ukraine. The president wants peace. It's very simple.

It very well could be. I think you are bringing up a very good point. The answer is we don't know. You could be right. That as USAID funding has been put in suspension, there has been a suspicious amount of closures and nonprofits that are second-guessing. The money is coming from somewhere. The more sinister accusation against ActBlue is that it's Chinese or Iranian-originated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
We don't have great evidence of that. There are some on the Hill that say that they've seen intelligence that might suggest that. But they're also just could be just good old fashioned criminal activity.

First of all, I do not want you guys as the 51st state. Way too many libs. But you seem great. But as far as his strategy, I can't read his mind, and I've never heard him say this in private or public. But I actually think he would be happy with the same treatment of a free trade agreement with some of our allies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
I actually think what bothers him the most is that we get tariffed and we do not have reciprocal tariffs against us. And I think that should be the goal, especially with Canada or Mexico. Now, when it comes to our adversaries like China, I think we should tariff across the board. But yes, tariffs can have a cost to them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
However, certain tariffs for certain industries, we might have to joust a little bit with the Canadians when it comes to certain... Like 95% of our fertilizer comes from Canada. Probably not smart to tariff that. Blake, where do you stand on this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
I will say the only part of Canada that will willingly accept is Alberta.

But you can guess what private school I was at. Literally, there's like defamation clauses. It's just insane.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
Yes. So I will I will say I actually am in favor of keeping the filibuster for major spending bills that are non reconciliation. I know that some people are going to disagree with that, but I think the filibuster prevented some of the most sinister stuff of Joe Biden from being passed in the first in Biden's term. So I just want to make sure I actually am a pro filibuster guy in that sense.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
With that being said, of course, we will be out of again. We'll be out of power again sometime in the future, hopefully a long way off. And the filibuster is a guarantee or to slow down the process and to make sure that crazy ideas like adding D.C. and Puerto Rico and states can't just happen with a 50 person vote. Imagine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
If we got rid of the filibuster and we lost in the future, which is totally conceivable, because I know everyone says, oh, you know, we're never going to be beat. No, no, no. Hold on. Things go in cycles. They go back and forth. Imagine the Democrats with a Democrat president could be like, okay, D.C. is a state. Puerto Rico is a state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
Oh, it's so terrible, right? This is why these schools need to be totally defunded. But public schools are, yeah, it was not UCLA. So I'll let you guess which one it was. It wasn't UCLA. Guess which other one it was. Anyway, don't even say it on air, Blake, because there's all this legal. We can neither confirm nor deny. Yeah. But I think all the public literally had to take down tweets and stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
And we're going to be looking back like, well, we got rid of the filibuster for what exactly? But getting rid of the filibuster for a reconciliation bill? Fine. That's a very specific thing. The Democrats start that precedent. We cannot predict how radical the Democrats are going to be when that time comes. Not if. There will be a moment in our lifetime where we no longer control the U.S. Senate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
We literally just got back control. I hope that never happens. You have to plan for that. Blake, what is your thoughts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
I also just want to say that there has been a decade-long erosion of the filibuster. It actually started with Harry Reid, if you might remember. Harry Reid, of all people, started the erosion of the filibuster for district circuit and district court judges.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
And then it marched forward when then we used the abolition of the filibuster to put Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court back in 2017, then also with Brett Kavanaugh, then also with Amy Coney Barrett. And so we've seen the slow erosion of filibuster. I think we've eroded it enough. Look, it would be very tempting right now because we control the House and the Senate. Get rid of the filibuster.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
Simple up or down vote. I think that would be a mistake. I think it would be a tragedy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
And by the way, it's not just a matter of doing it. I don't think the Senate would put up with it. So it's not even a realistic thing right now. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

Well, thank you. That's great feedback. Yeah, I mean, I had to educate Governor Newsom on what politics was. Politics is the highest form of community because it blends morality and sociability. That's not a Charlie Kirk quote. That is an Aristotle quote from the politics because he was like, well, who's going to make these decisions? And I said, well, that's what politics is.

We got to move to the next question. Thank you, though. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
Okay, I want to read this last one. Okay. Hey, Charlie, I can't unmute for some reason. With the transparency of this administration, where are the JFK and MLK Jr. files? And will we hear anything about the 2017 Vegas shooting? I never asked you. What is your thought on the Vegas shooting? I am mostly not on board with the Vegas theory.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
I know that's why I'm asking.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
And so the... But the other part of this, though, that's important is we try to hit, at least in the election, we were hitting states that had some sort of involvement in the election. So all the schools in Nevada, all the schools in Arizona, all the schools in Georgia. And we're trying to pepper around. So as the weather gets better, I'm doing Midwest schools.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
There is a lot of witness testimony that has to put official narrative. Thank you for all you do. I think, though, at least we can release all the files.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
Privately and publicly, my advice to the administration is I'm very consistent, guys. You guys got to start putting these files out. We need Epstein. We need JFK. We need MLK. We need Malcolm X. Vegas shooting. Just do a website, put them all up, no redaction.
The Charlie Kirk Show

All of it. Just like no more hiding. Like, let's just get them up. That's my own personal opinion. I know they're working on that, but I think the American people voted for it and that's what they deserve. And that's also what the president has demanded, by the way. Blake, thank you.

So I don't know. I want to make sure I manage and taper your expectations because removing federal workers is very hard. But what they should be able to cut based on the government running 60 to 70 percent. Now, as Blake astutely points out, if we want to really go after the deficit, though, eventually you have to go after entitlements. Is that right?

Well, and I just let's dive more into this. It's a great question, by the way. And I'm sorry about your experience in Boise with the Social Security Administration. Hopefully that gets cleaned up. And by the way, modernizing government is just something that needs to happen. It's so antiquated. It's so slow. It's so non-responsive. But Blake, let's dive into this more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
Post-COVID, a new baseline has basically been set in where there's this expectation of the size, scope, and power of the government that did not exist pre-COVID. It's almost doubled in size in five years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
So what we're trying to just get back to 2019 baseline creates massive uproar. So baseline budgeting is one of the original sins of Washington, D.C., which every year you have to go back to the prior year baseline. You can't actually start at what's called zero-based budgeting and say, okay, every year, what do we need and why do we need it? We talk about the previous...
The Charlie Kirk Show

I got it. I agree. And no, Blake, they don't know about that. We had a drone encounter in our family recently. We're not talking about that yet. Drones are a serious problem. We had a very near miss of a drone with our family this this week. In a really serious way. I don't want to get too much into detail. Yes. But anyway, the development and the proliferation of drones is very scary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
I don't think the U.S. government is nearly adequately prepared. And I would imagine your your contention is correct. Blake, what your thoughts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 214: Picking Campus Visits? Vegas Shooting Truth? 2025's Most Crucial Election?
It's a great saying. It's a great point. And also that I don't want to fear monger. But what is preventing a couple terrorists equipping drones going to open air sports stadiums? I don't think law enforcement is ready for that.

Again, you're busy, a lot of stuff going on, but this is why it's so important, why we're doing what we're doing. This is the most important election of 2025.

The Charlie Kirk Show

That involves your congressional maps, your voter integrity measures, everything associated alongside of it. So what we are doing is we're helping chase ballots, similar to what we kind of did back in November, to try and raise and drive awareness about this off-election, low-turnout election.

We had Senator Scott, now Senator Lee. Senator Lee, I'm going to start about our good friend, Kash Patel. The Democrats are doing everything they can to stop Kash Patel from becoming FBI director.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Where does his, let's just say his status hold as of right now?

I'm in the state of Florida right now, and I hope you are, too, because it's just a great spot. I'm still here.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So since him being sworn in as FBI director, what will that mean substantively of changes at the Bureau? What are the major changes that we can expect from the FBI?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
Akash Patel as being FBI director, seeing the powers to be consolidated around him has been very promising. This story from CBS News, Justice Department agrees to not publicly reveal names of FBI agents who worked on January 6th cases. Initially, the FBI handed over employee identification numbers of 5,000 people. Did we really have 5,000 people senatorly working on January 6th cases?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
Yeah, so tell us about that. What exactly are the Democrats able to do? Can you explain this? Because our audience gets a little impatient, as they should. They say, we have a majority. Why do we have to wait for these guys for cabinet officials? What gives? Explain it, please, to our audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
How many pedophiles, child sex traffickers, murderers, went free because we did not have agents allocated towards those cases? Senator Lee.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
So, Senator, the opportunity cost of an FBI that has been thwarted is remarkable. Other implications of having Kash Patel will also be depoliticizing the lawfare and getting to make sure that President Trump is not a victim of a Russiagate 2.0. We want the FBI focused on terrorist sleeper cells versus January 6 protesters. Very, very simple.

Senator, also this weekend there was a breathtaking decision by a New York judge, Paul Engelmayer, who just forbade all political appointees, including Scott Besson, from accessing the Department of Treasury data, all based on a blue and non-conspiracy theorist. His theory couldn't be challenged because the order was ex parte, meaning that Trump's lawyers weren't warned and couldn't weigh in.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Only Democrat attorney generals were allowed to argue. Senator, this begs a deeper point. which is the power of the unelected bureaucracy, this fourth branch government, something I know you deeply care about. Your reaction on this injunction and the looming constitutional question in front of us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
I'm expecting some judge from the northern Mariana Islands to do an injunction against President Trump's Diet Coke button. So you can't do that. It's not constitutional to have a Diet Coke button to be able to have it whenever you want.

The Charlie Kirk Show

Number one, what was with the lower third? Do you know what I'm saying, Andrew? The Philadelphia, the little lower third, the scoreboard, it looked as if someone made it in clip art. Do you know, usually they have all these opulent, elaborate, I didn't like it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
I know that we've all agreed as a society, no one took a vote that after trying to the left and trying to the right and trying to the upper left and the right, that the bottom is the best. I just, I thought it was very underwhelming. I will say, I think, Andrew, thank you for bringing this up. I think Tom Brady did great. I thought Tom Brady was a 10. I thought Tom Brady was a 10.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
I thought Tom Brady was way better than I anticipated. And dare I say, I thought Tom Brady was even better than Tony Romo. I know Tony Romo is, you know, I think Tony Romo gets a lot of mixed reaction. I thought Tom was terrific. I've always been a huge Tom Brady fan, but he just seemed as if he was having fun. He was having a blast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
And I think Tom Brady was also enjoying it because he was like, ha ha, Mahomes, you're not the GOAT. And he obviously channeled a lot of his Super Bowl experiences. But look, that's not easy. You got to be honest, like doing color commentary without a lot of experience on that. That's not easy. I thought Tom Brady crushed it. I thought he did very well. Over 100 plus million people were watching.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
Can I also just mention the commercials were terrible. I thought they were so underwhelming. And I thought the best commercial was the food conspiracy one. The Matthew McConaughey. Do you know what I'm talking about? I thought that was the best one. Because it also had the bears in it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
But the greatest moment of the Super Bowl, to great Daisy and Emma's delight, was when finally, I don't know if Taylor Swift has ever gotten booed. About time. Taylor Swift had no idea what was happening after getting booed when shown on the Jumbotron. Play cut 41. Oh, they're booing her. And I love when she says like, what is going on? She's never been booed in her life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
And look, I just I think it's well deserved. She went after MAGA and endorsed Joe Biden. And she's not exactly in favorable company there. President Trump got applauded. Look, regardless of your opinions on Taylor Swift, it was a fun moment, but it really represented a cultural shift. Represented a cultural shift where President Trump gets roaring applause and Taylor Swift, not as much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
So, Senator, when is it worth saying, OK, we need to we need to change the Senate rules? I mean, at what point do we get there? Because we are now three weeks into the presidency. I know that's a tough question and I know that it comes with a lot of weight, but we're three weeks in and we still do not have a secretary of commerce.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
Here's President Trump getting applauded, cut 42. And then there was this Nike ad saying that women were oppressed. Overall, I will say, though, that the advertisements were probably more pro-American, more pro-family, and a little less woke than I would have anticipated in previous years. But it just seems like the spark and the creativity was largely missing from them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
You could see them clearly trying to signal, but a lot of the ads were just bland. They weren't boundary-pushing ads. They weren't that entertaining. Some of them, I even said, I said, I know that ad. They run that on regular TV. It's the McConaughey Salesforce ad. They've run that many times. And they say that the Super Bowl reflects kind of where American culture is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
And here's the best summary I could give. We are in progress of exercising the woke, but we're not there yet. We're in progress of expelling it from our system, but we're not there yet. The vibe ship is clear, but we still have a lot of work to do. And by the way, so many of the ads were released before the Super Bowl, so it wasn't exciting to watch it for the first time like it used to be.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
But I mean, if I was a marketing agent, I would release it ahead of time because you get all these extra views and then you get the views at the Super Bowl. So releasing ahead of time, I think, is actually super smart. Overall, I was thrilled to see the Kansas City Chiefs lose. I hate to say it. I like Mahomes. I think he's a great guy. I like Harrison Butker. Got to know him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Crusade to Cut Spending + My Super Bowl Reaction
But seeing the Philadelphia—I'm not exactly an Eagles fan. I think they burnt Philly to a crisp. There's going to have to be like a rebuilding plan, a national stimulus plan. I think FEMA is going to have to visit Philly. after what happened last night. But I was happiest of all for Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts.

We all dodged a bullet when President Donald Trump's life was spared. And President Trump is fighting so hard every day. He is working his tail off.

I had the opportunity to see him over the weekend at Mar-a-Lago. And up until midnight, he is working. He's doing meetings. He's signing documents. I mean, he is just a beast. Working for you, by the way, for the American people every single moment. They can't keep up. They can't keep up with this machine. And the shock and awe is going to continue.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Very questionable, very sus. People seem to like that article. Yes, it's very favorable. So, Mark, yes, thank you, Mark, for that. And so, Mark, I have several questions. I want to start with this CBS report that shows that President Trump's approval rating seems to be rather low. significant for him and for other presidents. How does this compare with his first term?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And can you give us some presidential history and perspective? How do approval ratings tend to trend the first six months, 100 days of a presidency? Give us some perspective, because from my recollection, they start high and then they tend to taper.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Look, it's good for the Kansas City faithful to be humble a little bit. Just good for a little bit of humility. That's enough. I mean, winning three Super Bowls in a row... Look, us Bears fans, we get to a Super Bowl once every 30 years. We get to a Super Bowl. Last time the Bears were in a Super Bowl, I think Blake proved me wrong on this. I think it was 2008. No, no, we were in a Super Bowl.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
So and this is an important point. What typically starts to crater approval ratings? Biden started pretty high and then it just went down and never recovered. The economy is obviously a major one or one could say a scandal. President Trump is operating at such a rapid pace, even for him, it's hard to even be able to have the media apparatus or his opposition emphasize and focus.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Let me ask it this way, Mark. Have his critics decided on the best way to define and oppose this now three-week-old presidency?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
I will accept that praise and thank you. And I don't want to dive too deep into that, but it does seem as if from an ecosystem standpoint, there has been a lack of, let's just say political entrepreneurs on the left. I don't know if that's the right way to word it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
I mean, again, I don't want to get too high on my own supply. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
We lost to the Indianapolis Colts. We won a Super Bowl in 1985. Bears folklore is 2006 season. Thank you, Blake. We're living on the... the energy of the 1985. Still, if you look at Super Bowl commercials, they still have Ditka, you know, like dressed up. I mean, it's just living on the fumes of 1985, I could say. So we're not going to talk too much about the Super Bowl.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
That that's a really smart point. And it's something that Rush would talk about. May he rest in peace a lot, which is where is left wing talk radio? And one of his theories was that I got nothing but content because I just criticize the media all day long. He says, I'm just I'm responding to their stuff all day long.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And so I guess there could be a left wing equivalent that responds to shows like ours. And there are people that try to do that, but it just doesn't it doesn't have the same sort of. Fly, because, again, you're responding to kind of upstart grassroots types, whereas we know we're responding to palatial regime, multibillion dollar media. Is that right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
So, Mark, I want to get into another element of the story here and first compliment you. You were one of the few people that said that Trump was likely to have his entire cabinet confirmed. And you've said that for the entire time, that it was advantaged Trump. And people said, no way is Bobby Kennedy going to get through.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Instead, I want to zero in on what's happening with Doge and whether or not it's popular. Doge is forcing a major constitutional issue. Now, I wouldn't call it a crisis, but it certainly is forcing front and center whether or not The executive branch has the power to allocate resources of their choosing, to faithfully exercise the laws, the vesting clause.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
So I don't want to pop the champagne yet from our side, but it looks as if this is. Almost a certainty. Why do you think that is? Why do you think that he was successful in this, even though he chose some rather unconventional picks by Washington, D.C. standards?

With President Donald Trump now back in the White House, we're all excited about big changes ahead, which will make America great again. But even with the defeat of their supporters last November, Big Pharma is still threatening to derail the Trump agenda, oppose Bobby Kennedy Jr. 's upcoming reforms, and they want to block competition and keep drug prices too high.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Big Pharma sets the price of drugs, and already this year, they raised the price on more than 575 of them. Their anti-competitive practices block competition so they can keep prices high. And they spend billions of dollars on ads pushing their high-priced brand name drugs on working Americans. But Big Pharma wants more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Now they're urging Congress to undermine incentives in the private health care market that help American employers and families secure savings on prescription drugs. Conservatives for lower health care costs warns that big pharma is no friend to the Trump agenda or the pocketbooks of the American people. They opposed solutions to lower drug prices in the president Trump's first term.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And they are after a huge money grab at the expense of everyone else now by seeking more government intervention in the private market.

So I love having Mark on the program because he has incredible historical context of a couple decades of covering this. So Mark, have we ever seen anything in the modern era of

Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
similar to doge and how do you think this is going to play out i know that is a very difficult question it's a speculative question but why don't you instead say what are you seeing that might lead you to believe a certain conclusion is um inevitable because we've never quite seen the world's richest man come in as an sge a special government employee and deploy some of his super geniuses to fix the government it's unlike anything i've ever seen mark your take on doge
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Now, the Article 2 supremacists, which we have been mentioning many times on this program, are not happy with this. People like Chris Murphy, people like Ilhan Omar, they live to protect the federal bureaucracy. They exist to protect the standing army. The federal bureaucracy... has so many separate and different components. It is far more entrenched than people realize.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
The let's talk about the political dynamic here as we close. Does it present an opportunity for more of the Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren wing of the party to say, look, this is the oligarchy we've been warning you again about to kind of have this left wing populism have a resurgence within the Democrat Party that has been quite muted? since Joe Biden became president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
My message to conservatives is we have to operate as if they're going to figure this out. They're going to figure it out. They're not dumb. They'll adjust. They might not be there yet, but we've got to step on the gas, and you have to act as if your opponent is going to be the most formidable. Yeah, they might be in the wilderness right now, and they might be disorganized.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
They might be demoralized, but understand they have a lot of money, a lot of experience, a lot of former presidents. I think they're going to reorganize, and we have to act as if. Mark, thank you so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
That is correct. I will accept and receive that compliment. Mark, thanks so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage

Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
It is the technocratic class. No one elected these people. No one knows who they are. They are unaccountable and they have unchecked amounts of power. So the question remains, do we have any ability to rein them in or do we serve at the pleasure of the bureaucracy? Dwight D. Eisenhower warned about this in his exit address.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
That is tpusa.com. Buckle up everybody, here we go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And most people think about the military industrial complex, but that was only one component of Dwight D. Eisenhower's farewell address. Dwight D. Eisenhower, of course, was the head of the allied forces. The allied supreme forces also warned extensively of a unelected technocratic scientific elite running the country. Who is sovereign is the fundamental question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Ilhan Omar believes that we're in the midst of a constitutional crisis, and she isn't totally wrong. I wouldn't use the word crisis, but it is the greatest constitutional question since Woodrow Wilson. We are in this question of what constitutes the federal government, how many branches, who is in charge, who gets the consent of the governed, who is the sovereign. Let's play cut 12.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
You see, this is Article 1 supremacy. We have been hypnotized to believe That only the legislative branch has power. No, it is designed so that there's tension between the branches. The executive branch can tell the first branch to go pound sand, and then the third branch will hopefully reconcile the differences.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Here is Chris Murphy saying this is one of those constitutional crises the country's ever faced. I think it is the greatest constitutional question in 100 years. But it is all based on this idea that there is a small group of elites that know what is better for you than you do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
That there is a technocratic class, the managers, the desk workers, and they will remain permanent regardless of who is in control. They will remain in power regardless of who is elected. They want to turn the presidency into a ceremonial job. that cuts ribbons, takes pictures, gets people that win Super Bowls to come and visit the White House. Thanks so much for playing. That's it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
That's what they want the presidency to be. Ceremonial in nature. Let's play cut 13.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Well, hold on a second. The American people voted for Donald Trump and the presidency, the executive branch is an equal branch to your branch, Chris Murphy. So he can tell the you could tell the legislative branch, no, I'm not going to spend this. And then the Empowerment Act issue comes front and center. And that is why Russ vote matters so much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And the Supreme Court is going to have to think deeply about this is can the executive branch say no to appropriated money? What are the limitations of that? I don't even know the answer. The Empowerment Act is this question, which I think we need to just put down a flag. And this needs to be the fight in front of us. It is the existential question in front of us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
Is that can the executive branch, the presidency, challenge and send money back to Congress if they don't want to spend it? I want you to think about if the answer is no. If the answer is no, then the presidency is subservient to the House and the Senate. We have been telling our kids our entire life they are equal branches. They are equal branches.

Stephen Miller perfectly addressed this in his interview with Maria Bartiromo, Play Cut 40.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
When Chris Murphy says democracy, he means technocratic oligarchy. When Stephen Miller says it again, I don't like the word democracy, but let's just play it out for what it means. He means will the American people, the consent of the governed. He means that you are in charge of your government. He means that you get to call the shots. That's what Stephen Miller means.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And he's exactly what the people want, the people get. Now, if Chris Murphy and Ilhan Omar are correct, I want you to play that out to its furthest possible conclusion. It means that we have one branch of government, not three. It means that Article 2 means absolutely nothing. There's supposed to be fights between the branches. There's supposed to be feuds between the branches.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
The founders spoke about this. And we have weakened the executive branch so significantly. We have dulled the impact of the executive branch tremendously. And it is the will of the people that matters most. And we are seeing in great detail this constitutional question finally play out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And they also are arguing that the fourth branch of government is superior, a branch not even outlined in the Constitution. And they're saying that the fourth branch, which isn't in the Constitution, is in charge of the president, which is in the Constitution. This, everybody, is the most exciting high stakes constitutional fight in a century.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
The last time a federal purge was tried was actually during the Eisenhower administration. And they said, oh, you're purging all these communists. So they're trying to reckon back to this. But it was Eisenhower in his farewell address who warned about this. Now, people know about the military industrial complex component of this speech.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
What you forget about is the unelected technocratic scientific elite. This is Dwight D. Eisenhower who warned us. And his warning has now come to surface. This is the fight that he predicted. Is it the people or is it the technocrats? Is it the people or is it the scientific elite?

I mean, this is so prescient. He saw this entire fight coming. He saw the forces that were gathering beneath the surface. This was a largely subterranean threat. And with every new department that we approved, Department of Education, Health and Human Services, we strengthened this unelected scientific managerial elite. It is the cult of the managers, mid-level managers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
They're not overly imposing when you meet them. You'll never know their names. They don't work necessarily very hard, but they slow down the spirit of America. They waste a lot of money. And I'm not even saying they're evil people. The Fauci's of the world are a separate category. But these are the enforcers of the regime. And it really makes you wonder who won the Cold War.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
This is a very Soviet style way of running your government. bureaucratic, entrenched, centralized, lethargic. It is the malaise of the bureaucratic class. And for decades, we have ignored this problem. For decades, we've acted as if we've had a president and we didn't.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And that is why when Joe Biden was basically brain dead the last two years of his presidency, things continued to move on because he didn't actually have duties or responsibilities. It was senior White House staff. It was middle management workers. People would say, who was running the country? It's never been the president. Donald Trump tried to exert this power in his first term.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And as you remember, he was attacked from every possible direction for that. Barack Obama was a ceremonial president and he enjoyed it. He was able to do his March Madness picks. He was able to kind of go to the Oscars, be a popular guy. That's what they want the presidency to be. Celebrity. Nice smile. good to the media, say a couple things, not an ultimate decision maker.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
They want to turn the presidency into the king of England. Has a lot of history, but no actual power. They want to turn the presidency into the monarchy of Europe. Oh, remember when the queen or the king ruled over these lands. And instead, their version is the Cass Sunstein model of government. is that there will be conference rooms of people that know better than you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And by definition, this belief system, this version of government, minimizes the citizen. The bigger the government, the smaller the citizen, as Dennis Prager would always say. But you can't have big government without big bureaucracy. Bureaucracy is the middle fat of government. It is the beer belly. It's very hard to get rid of.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
It is sluggishly annoying against all of your aims and your ambitions. And it works against what Alexander Hamilton would talk about in the Federalist Papers. I think Federalist 70, if I'm not mistaken, the energetic executive. If you want an executive with energy and spunk and vigor and spirit and vitality, how are you supposed to do that if you have this permanent bureaucracy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
The Super Bowl, I'm curious to see the viewership numbers, but I can't imagine that it was good. Yeah, Blake says in the chat, Charlie, that was extremely watchable. I enjoyed watching every second of that. I don't know if he's talking about the game or if he's talking about the halftime show. Both is what he said. Oh, he slept through halftime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump's DOGE Defunding Rampage
And the permanent bureaucracy, which we used to call the deep state, but it is better described as the administrative state, is against almost every single objective of the current administration. And the example this weekend was from the Treasury Department. An activist judge granted more power to the bureaucracy than actually Scott Besson. Who is in charge is the fundamental question.

Hey everybody, Tanner Charlie, Kirk Show. We take the 30,000 foot view of how Bill Clinton started this trade debacle.

And some of it is direct tariffs, but it's not only that. There's a lot of howling going on right now, and some of it is understandable. A lot of countries got used to the existing system.

The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Not just the bureaucracy and government, but bureaucracy in general. Very similar to how men, as they get older, middle-aged men, develop an intractable, seemingly irreversible beer belly, middle fat. It seems as if government, churches, charities, companies, and of course colleges develop that kind of mid-level management, job justification, paper shuffling, desk worker mentality.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
In fact, bureaucrat literally means desk worker from its original French. Doge exists to try to get rid of the bureaucracy. What do you do here is the lethal weapon against bureaucracy. The question of what do you do here might be the most effective weapon against bloat that I have seen. Well, we have a very special guest, someone that goes to Brown University, so obviously he's very smart.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
It is moving so quick we have to basically have five different chats open of different responses from foreign nations regarding tariff threats, regarding reciprocity. So there is a lot going on here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
And he decided to do something I love. His name is Alex Shea. I believe that's how you say it. He's Brown University class of 2027, software engineer and a journalist. So what he decided to do, he's a sophomore at Brown University, which is incredibly liberal, as you know. he decided to email 3,800 Brown staff members with a very simple question. Describe what tasks you performed in the past week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Shea said he got about 20 responses to his email, including one of them was F off. Shea created a website called Bloat at Brown, where he listed off every employee at the school and used AI to rate their jobs in terms of legality, redundancy, and so-called BS.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Shea has pointed out that at Brown still has dozens, if not hundreds of obvious DEI jobs and direct defiance to President Trump's executive order. So why should Brown keep on getting taxpayer money? So Alex Shea is a customer. Alex Shea is allowed to ask questions. Alex Shea pays a ton of money for Brown to educate him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
But when Alex Shea starts to ask the people that he employs, what do you do here? He gets reprimanded. And Alex Shea joins us now. Alex, welcome to the program. Tell us all about this hilarious yet very important project. Alex, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
But instead of going into all the details, because that's just going to change by every five minutes, I think we need to take a step back and reset the foundational framework to reset a 30,000-foot view of exactly what's going on here. President Donald Trump has been railing against bad trade deals for the last 30 or 40 years. President Donald Trump, as a businessman, identified trade deficits.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
First of all, I love this. And I want to just say as a macro point, when high IQ driven young patriots like yourself get disagreeable against power, I love it because they don't know how to deal with it. So you've created this, let's just say BS job subscores. Is that fair to say? And so you have a you have yet you have a you score jobs for BS jobs that waste money.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
So basically, you are the customer at Brown for ninety three thousand dollars a year. You're a journalist. You're trying to figure out what the heck are we paying all this money for in Providence, Rhode Island? You are the client. Brown employs more than 4,400 employees, but fewer than 1,000 are instructors of any kind. So that means 75% of jobs at Brown are not instructors.

Alex, you have – there's two components here I want to make sure we cover. First, I want to go through these five categories because I think it's hilarious and so astute. And then I want to talk about the disciplinary inaction. And then I have a third point that I do want to make. So you have these five buckets, if you will, that you have distilled of trying to organize what these people do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
I want you to go through them. You have flunky. You have goon. Duct taper. Box ticker. And taskmaster. Explain. Explain.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
And the way trade is supposed to be constituted is we do what we do best and you do what you do best, and we will barter. By doing so, you will make us wealthier, and we will trade, and we will both be able to have a flourishing future. What ended up happening in the 1990s and early 2000s, in the 1990s, there were three critical mistakes made by Bill Clinton.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
And so this is one of my favorite distillations. I want all of you to think about when you send your kid to college. So Ed Brown, just to repeat. 4,400 employees at Brown. 1,000 of them are instructors of any kind, and that's even being generous because that includes teacher's assistants, and 1,000 is a generous number.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
So there are 3,400 people that are either flunkies, goons, duct tabers, box tickers, or taskmasters for $93,000 a year. And look, this would be even more hilarious if it wasn't tragic. And by the way, Alex, you are a great example as to why they do not want the Ivy League to be based in merit, why they don't want Asians or whites to come to the Ivy League. They just want people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
You ask too many questions. You're way too disagreeable for them. You're like, actually, no, what do you do here? What is this? And you're kind of doing your own micro doge. One thing I want to make sure I express, if anyone out there, I know someone at Harvard, I want, this should be happening. You should start a whole movement of this. We should have one at Harvard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
We should have one at Princeton. We should have one at Yale. We should have one at Stanford where students just start mass emailing the entire faculty and saying, I go to school here and I pay $100,000 a year. What did you accomplish last week? And start organizing the entire faculty database at the school that you are going into debt for to justify why they exist. This could start a mass movement.

And by the way, I'm going to also push Linda McMahon and the Trump administration to demand this info as well. What do you do here? And organize everybody in those five categories.

But the conflation of investment and commercial banks allowed the cheap flow of money to go into the capital markets in a way that that specific deregulation, I think, actually led us to the 2008 financial crisis and the lords of easy money leading us closer and closer to fiscal and financial apocalypse. Now, free trade did make the stock market go up. Nobody is doubting that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Yeah, so just to be clear, instead of asking the people that you employ what they do all day long, if you would host, I don't know, like a Students for Justice of Palestine encampment in the middle of Brown's campus, then that's perfectly fine. They would settle with you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
But going around and asking bloated bureaucrats that are duct taper, box tickers, that you employ what you do all day long, you are subject now to a disciplinary investigation. Alex, one minute remaining. Would you say that Brown is a place where I don't want to, again, scam is kind of my thing, college scam, but how would you describe Brown now after this experience?

Unlimited, unfettered free trade did make the 10% do very well. I am part of the 10%. I can say this as somebody who is part of the evil 10% of the country. When you are on the upper part of the socioeconomic ladder, specifically, if you do work that does not involve your hands... but only involves your brain. That does not involve your body, but only involves your brain.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Free trade is traditionally a great idea because we became an information economy and a consumer economy and not an industrial one. We thought because we were entering into a technological revolution, because that we were entering into a brave new world of unfettered, unapologetic free trade, that we would no longer need to make stuff. In fact, that is what the third world does.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
The idea was that the third world will make our products for us and that we will be able to become wealthier. Francis Fukuyama famously wrote a book called The End of History. The assumption was permanent U.S. dominance. It was a post-Cold War mentality. It was that neoliberalism is the end of history.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Fukuyama wrote in The End of History that this will be the end of war, that neoliberalism was the apex of civilization. Neoliberalism was, of course, invade the world, invite the world. The idea of the Western liberal order will be able to be spread to all corners of the world, and we will end the eschaton.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
The eschaton, of course, is a Christian view of when Christ rules Earth for a thousand-year reign. Immunitizing the eschaton is what the free traders thought they were going to get. In fact, I remember growing up, I was in sixth grade at MacArthur Middle School. right there on Palatine Road, right where I grew up. And I remember we would watch... They had these morning... News bits.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
I forgot the name of it. Maybe Blake would know. It was like five to ten minutes long. It was like mandatory must runs. I remember one of them. I'll think of it. I bet I could find it in a break. Anyway, it was the news clips. In one of them, they said, can you find a single thing when you're walking through a parking lot at Walmart and ask people what they bought that was made in America?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
And the answer was no. And of course, all my sixth grade classmates were like, that's wrong, that's wrong. And I remember the teacher would interject. And I wouldn't even say the teacher was liberal. The teacher was neoliberal. And the teacher would interject and say, no, this is a good thing. This made us wealthier. We don't have to do that work. We are liberated.

In fact, what we were told, what I was told growing up, is that free trade would then make it where the Russians will be wearing Levi jeans, eating McDonald's, taking selfies. Well, at the time, just listen to iPads, iPods. And it's not even that it's a bad thing for other things to be made in other countries. Of course not. We want a competition. We want markets. We do not want no trade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Instead, it is when nothing is made in America or next to nothing, when it's such a small percentage. When making something in America, almost people look differently at you. Why would you do that? Now, we also must be fair.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
We have to be fair in our analysis, partially, but not mainly, partially as to why the corporate class decided to move these jobs overseas is that unions got very greedy in the 1970s and 1980s. This is a lesser appreciated component of this analysis is unions thought that they were too big for their bridges. They were like, what are you going to like leave literally some of the labor unions and
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
would look at the corporate class and say, we want a 40% increase in wages. We want more days off. And the corporate class decided to get back at the unions. America became less competitive. Now, again, a lot of the Trump coalition is union labor. However, as Blake astutely pointed out, find one part of the American economy that is mass unionized that isn't totally awful. It's really hard to find.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
in the fact where mass unionization, especially public sector unionization, public sector teacher unions, public sector janitorial unions, public sector government unions, I think that there's a place, for example, a carpenter's union. They're very good at training. They're very good at apprenticeship. However, There needs to be a balance between capital and labor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
And what happened, of course, is the capital, the corporate class, having no allegiance to the United States of America and the fact that unions overreached and unions got cocky, they looked at the corporate class in the eye and said, we're American labor. What, are you going to really go and make that trinket in China? And the McKinsey type said, yep.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
That's exactly what we're going to do, actually. And it was made easier by this decision. Understand what President Donald Trump is doing is fixing and remedying the mistakes of past. If you had to go look at what is the original sin as to why we are in the place that we are in, there are many places, there are many decisions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
But the one where we actually have it on tape, rarely do you have the original sin on tape. And it was televised on C-SPAN. And that is when we decided to make what was then a third world and maybe a second world country to have entrance into the World Trade Organization. This was a glide path. We did not do this to try and make us have greater harmony with China.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
In fact, you could make an argument that our relations with China were probably better before China went into the World Trade Organization. The free trade zealots told us that trade will bring us peace. In fact, it turns out that mass trade with China brought us closer and closer to conflict. President Donald Trump is fixing this problem from Bill Clinton, play cut 121.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
You look at that. There are still joint technology transfers. We are not allowed to sell our products in China. Our technology companies are not allowed to sell in the interior of China.

And I say this, by the way, as someone who is very invested in the stock market. Thankfully, I have a great person and team that helps manage that stuff. I was only down a couple percent. Well, a lot of other people were down a lot more. You could have hedges by the VIX. You can have buffers, all that stuff. But I feel as if I live in two different realities. I was walking around Arizona.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
certain part of Phoenix, Arizona this weekend, and a very wealthy guy came up and he was very worried. He came up to me, Charlie, what does Trump think with these tariffs? What do you think? What do you think? What do you think? I said, look, everything I'm going to tell you privately, I also say publicly, I have no inside information. And if I did, I certainly wouldn't just share it with you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Very worried. He said, you know, my portfolio's down, my market's down. Kind of almost freaking out. And then in the other's reality, when I went out to dinner with my wife, Guy comes up to me and he says, Charlie, I'm a welder. This is the greatest week I've ever seen in politics. I said, what do you mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
He said, finally, someone is giving the middle finger to the corporate class and they're going to defend those of us that work for a living. Us blue-collar workers have a fighter in the White House, and we've been waiting for it. Now, I'm not even saying one is right and one is wrong. They both are very valued constituencies. One is the capital class and one is the labor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
And properly understood and properly balanced, you have hopefully some brokered equilibrium between capital and labor. Understand the top 10%, which I am part of and many of the audience are part of, own about 88% of the equities.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Now, it's a little deceiving because a lot of teachers and a lot of janitors and a lot of people that have 401ks, they might get blended into a major wealth management fund. Nobody is happy with what's going on with the stock market. But again, 10% of Americans own 88% of equities. The next 40% own 12% of the stock market. And the bottom 50% has debt. They have credit card bills.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
They rent their homes. And they have auto loans. And they've been screaming and crying for some relief. What's even worse is if Trump didn't do anything about this. And I'm not even talking about economically because this is a risk. This is a gamble. We must be honest with this is an economic gamble. There is a risk associated with it. I think it's going to work out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
I trust Stephen Miller and I trust Susie Wiles and I trust Scott Besson and I trust J.D. Vance. And of course, most importantly, I trust President Trump. But there is a risk. There is a gamble involved in all of this. But the greater risk would be if you run on tariffs and you don't apply them. That would be the end of democracy as we know it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
That means you could pander to a constituency endlessly to just go get their votes and you don't do it. That, to be perfectly honest with you, is far more horrifying and terrifying to the health of our politics than democracy. the stock market going down. And I know the stock market right now going down is hurting a lot of people. And look, this could go terribly wrong.

Europe and China are going to be the main countries that will most likely escalate. There could be a de-dollarization. A lot of our wealth in this country is built on the fact that we are the world's reserve currency. So this is a high wire. This is a live wire act, one that I support. The markets knew this was coming and Trump gave plenty of notice and still we are seeing problems. a sell-off.

But I think back to that blue-collar guy that came up to me, said this is the best week of politics I've ever seen. And the contrast, the people that own in the market think this is terrible. The people that have built the country think this is wonderful. I would like to have them both think something is wonderful. However, if you look at the last five years, Wall Street has done very, very well.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What Tariffs Mean + DOGE in the Ivy League
Main Street, has not done very well the last five years. Been crushed by inflation, being crushed by consumer debt. They don't own homes. And they have been screaming at their politicians, please listen to us. Please do something for us.

And that is what Donald Trump embodied, which is why, regardless of what Trump said or how they attacked him, the working class continued to rise up in record numbers. And now President Trump is delivering it. He is the promise keeper president. We've seen that on the border. The idea of these tariffs is to smoke out behavior targeted at American exports.

Hey, everybody, to the Charlie Kirk show. Ask me anything episode. Really great questions today. We talk about why is it that red states have such terrible Republicans? It is the red state paradox.

It was an inexplicably bizarre reaction, to be perfectly honest with you. Of course, I am very sympathetic to the idea of forgiving, even when it is very difficult to forgive. However, I'll be honest, I don't believe him that he has forgiven this person because he it just feels like superficial. I would not even be able to speak in such a situation.

And then he rushed to say it's not racial one day after, which goes to show, of course, he's making it racial. No one was even thinking that. Instead, he should have just been like, here's my son, here is his memory. Again, prayer should be with the father. He was obviously in a very difficult mental state, but just a bizarre reaction.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Yeah, it's a great question. So let me first start. There's definitely some potential moral issues with IVF that need to be talked about. The first of which is the creation of life without sex. It's actually the inverse of birth control, which is birth control would be sex without life and IVF would be life without sex.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
So there's some Brave New World elements of IVF that I think we do need to confront. And Brave New World, as I just talked about the Hillsdale College course, is that Aldous Huxley wrote in the book Brave New World that essentially one day that human beings will be made on factory and assembly lines. They won't be a byproduct of a loving relationship.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Basically, it'll be no different than making a Cadillac or a Ford Explorer. You can customize it as you wish and you can make it. Okay, that's number one. Number two, that there are significant potential human rights issues if we believe that life begins at conception. And so we have to understand that right now there are lots of frozen embryos that are fertilized.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
OK, so you have to enlighten me on what is happening at the Texas Capitol. I actually don't know. So tell me in the audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
We believe those are lives and they're basically being refrigerated. So that's number two. Number three, I now have to look at the practical side, which is I know people that are IVF children. I know people that have used IVF. In fact, I know people that were IVF kids with surrogacy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
There is a way to do IVF in a pro-life way, which would be one fertilized embryo at a time that is very expensive and quite honestly, a low likelihood of actually working. So it's a very difficult issue because we need strong nuclear families in this country, and strong nuclear families are a bulwark against Marxism. And these are largely young couples who love children.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
While I think it should be allowed to continue in a legal way, I would definitely limit it to try to protect all the human rights aspects. But I think we also must have a robust discussion about about do we want human life to be able to be made in a laboratory? I think that's a very serious, let's just say, addressed element of in vitro fertilization.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Do we want to get to a place where human life can be made simply and solely in a laboratory? I'm not so sure about that. It is by no means a criticism of people that have used IVF or even people that are benefiting from IVF. I will say, taking a step back, that going through infertility can be one of the hardest things that people have had to go through.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
It is incredibly heart-aching and heart-breaking. It can go through multiple different iterations of Quite honestly, the closest thing to agonizing torture that good, loving couples have to go through, to be perfectly honest. So it's a very tough situation and tough topic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
OK, so you got to tell me more than that. So what what what is going on? Educate the audience. So by not a quorum, meaning that the Republicans are not able to be able to vote. OK, so what why is that? What is the backstory of that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
I tend to lean towards seeing that 90% of the time people that use IVF are incredibly well-intentioned and want to welcome life. And that is the other more difficult aspect, which it is in some ways the exact moral intent opposite of abortion. where abortion are people that go into a clinic to eliminate life, whereas IVF people go into a clinic to try to welcome life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
So there's no easy answer there. But the brave new world element is something I think that needs to be addressed. So all that to say, President Trump has embraced it. President Trump is championing it. And I know a lot of people that have used it. And so that's the answer to that question. OK, let's see here. What is the next member? Is a Braden Braden. Thank you.

So I got some of that. You said your state's Virginia, correct? Right? Is that right? Yes, sir. How is Winsome Sears doing? What is the state of that race?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
It's a great question. Thank you for catching me up to speed on that. Does not shock me. So here's the problem. It's called the red state dilemma. A red state traditionally will have Republicans that are more like Democrats because Democrats who might be a little bit more moderate. Why would they run as Democrats? They'll never actually get any political power.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
So a couple things. Thank you for that. Virginia, I think, can become a swing state, especially if we bring high-prop voters home. I'm going to be spending a lot of time in Virginia. I'm going to be doing an event at University of Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Liberty, and potentially one more like George Mason and VCU. Very big off-year election.

But Winston Sears, we have to bring across the finish line. Honestly, a lot of it is going to be contingent on the economy. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here. Remember that we vote every day with our dollar. One of the best ways to support America is by buying from local farms and ranches. Good Ranchers makes this easy by delivering 100% American meat to your door.

That's a really good question. So the answer is not really. It's very difficult. I think you first have to go after the teachers and the doctors. I think we got to go after the doctors, especially the ones that are prescribing this. It's so hard because some of these parents are so well-intentioned that they are essentially held hostage and they too are medically kidnapped by the system.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
When a parent who is very involved is told by a doctor, if you do not allow your daughter to medically transition, then they're going to commit suicide. Would you rather have a dead son or, you know, a dead daughter and a live son effectively holding them hostage? Tiffany, Tiffany, thank you for being a member. Really appreciate it. What is on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
So that is a short-term analysis. Here's what I don't want to do, and I think it's very important. I'm not going to dismiss or, let's say, rationalize financial suffering. People are hurting right now. Obviously, the market's down. I believe this will be short-lived.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
I believe if you take the long-term perspective with tax cuts, no tax on tips, deregulation, economic boon, major investment, that this thing is going to grow. Remember, algorithms run most of the market. So I think you'd say to your friend, look, let's talk at the end of the year. Let's talk at the end of next year. Investing is a long-term game.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
So if a Republican state ends up being 10 to 15 points too Republican, states like Nebraska, which I'm going to bring up in a second, states like South Dakota, states like Wyoming, when you have a very aspirational, quasi-narcissistic state senator who wants to get more power and he really doesn't have that deeply held beliefs, he could be a Republican or a Democrat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
If you are investing just for a 24-hour news cycle, then you are going to be in a tough spot. Interest rates are falling, which can make homes easier to buy. But what I don't want to do is where the Democrats that have said, oh, everything's perfectly fine, everything – When stocks go down, people are going to see a material drop at that time. My rule is this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Look at your investments once every six months. I think it's really unhealthy if you open up your Schwab or your TD Ameritrade app or your interactive brokers app every single day, unless you are a day trader. If you're a day trader, fine. But if you're a long-term investor or 401ks, do yourself a favor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
unless you have immediate and pressing liquidity needs, which is possible, unless you are in highly sophisticated trading and it's your profession. But if you are a retiree, and you do not have immediate liquidity needs, do yourself a favor. Delete that app from your phone and open it up in six months. Stocks are not meant to be a casino.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
It is not meant to be DraftKings where you are betting on whether or not Josh Allen is going to do a super boost and run for a touchdown and throw a touchdown. I get that it's not ideal that the market is down a couple thousand points. I'm down. You're down. We're all invested in the long-term bullish perspective of America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
But I'm still incredibly long on America, and I think you guys should be too. Dollar cost average is a great way to invest. Do some every quarter. And don't look at your portfolio every day. It will drive you insane, and it does nobody any good. Okay. Brandon, Brandon, you are the last question. What is on your mind?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
I'll try to write a book. Is that what you said? Yeah. Well, it's so funny. I'm actually writing my Sabbath book right now. Is first and foremost, you have to write about something you are very clear about. You have to have a great hypothesis, a great argument, a great contention. Basically, a book should be an argument unless you're writing a novel. Right. That's a whole separate thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
My argument is that the Sabbath is good for me and good for society, and people should adopt it into their life, and I'm going to tell you why. That's a lot to work on. You have to have a passion about it. And finally, compartmentalize it. Start small. Write a little bit every single day. If you write for five to ten minutes a day, the real person you should be asking the question of is Blake.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Blake writes a lot of books. He's prolific. He helped me with my last book significantly, Right Wing Revolution. He's got a whole bunch. He's got a whole thing. He basically doesn't sleep for three days and takes all sorts of interesting substances and poof, there's a book. But he's different. So actually, Blake can help answer this question on the members page.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Blake can write like a paragraph of advice how to write a book. I think that's a good way. Thank you, Brandon. God bless you and Shabbat Shalom. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.

He's this kind of transactional corporate type. Country Club. It's like a power craving sociopathic lizard who will join just whatever party is stronger. They then end up joining the Republican Party. And mind you, in California, they joined the Democrat Party. In New York, they joined the Democrat Party. But in Texas, they joined the Republican Party.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Now contrast that with the blessing of being in a battleground state. And here's the really ironic part. If your state ends up being not that red, you actually get legitimate Republicans in your state, like Florida. Now, Florida's changing. Where Florida's become so red, they're getting fake Republicans that are now being part of their state legislature.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
But Florida used to be a battleground state, so they had no fake Republicans. It was Democrats would go be Democrats and Republicans would be Republicans. Probably the best example of where it's a 50-50 state and you get real Republicans and you get real Democrats. I would say Arizona, but I wouldn't say that's the best example.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
But one that is pretty productive, and I would say Florida, but it is changing, is states like North Carolina. Now, they have their fair share of moderates, but it's so 50-50 with Democrat governors and Democrats gaining ground that if you're an aspirational Democrat, you go and join the Democrat Party. So it is the red state paradox.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
It is the dilemma where even though you control Texas by quite a great margin, Democrats say it's a waste of time to go run as a Democrat. I will do a political mailer with myself with a shotgun. I will wear a cowboy hat. I'll put on boots. I'll say keep Texas, Texas and vote for me. And then you'll go to the state capitol and really you're a Democrat.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
What's more concerning, though, is that Senator James Lankford, our friend from the great state of Oklahoma, which, by the way, is a perfect kind of connective tissue to the prior question that we just received, which is James Lankford, who is obviously in so many ways not a Republican, not a conservative. He is now pushing for a special investigation into Pete Hegseth's use of signal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Republican James Lankford from the state of Oklahoma. Of course he is. Pete Hegseth did nothing wrong. It's an approved government device. It's a proved communication methodology. The only person who did something wrong is whoever put Jeffrey Goldberg into that chat. Something that we believe to be Mike Waltz and his team, but we're going to wait for the final report to conclude that.

And remember, this is the story right here from Politico.com. Lankford calls for Inspector General to investigate Signalgate. So let me tell you, Anne, who is the one that actually triggered and prompted this IG investigation to Pete Hegseth? Republican James Lankford from Oklahoma. That's right.

Hey, here's my question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Great question. So let me just say one thing and then ask you a question. First of all, Lee Zeldin's doing a great job. He just closed yesterday this ridiculous climate change museum. Literally, we spent $4 million to build a climate change museum that nobody visited. Lee Zeldin just closed it and said, this is ridiculous. We're closing this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
Not to mention Lee Zeldin is fighting every day to reclaim $20 billion in climate grants that were given out at the end of Biden's term. I mean, we want to talk about a racket that alone is worthy of a massive and major and significant investigation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
But let me ask you, Keith, are these EPA rules, are they taxes that are issued by Congress or are they mandates that were previously given by an EPA administrator? The question I'm asking for a reason.

No worries. Thank you, Brandy, for being a member. So, look, first and foremost, the stabbing is a wild story that we haven't discussed. I have intentionally avoided the stabbing of Austin Metcalfe. as a story to cover on the show because I was so disturbed by the way his father handled it on TV. And therefore I said, look, he lost his son. He can react however he wants.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
My sympathies go to the family, but the way that he went on television and basically gave justification for the stabbing of his son and effectively was like, I feel sorry for the guy that stabbed my son. Very, very hard for me to process. Just so everybody understands, he forgave him and said it wasn't racial. Look, forgiveness is a Christian virtue. I think that's superficial forgiveness.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
I find that hard to believe that just a couple days later you could just say that you forgive him. I think you have to go through a little bit of work and a little bit of wrestling to get there. And of course it's racial. You have a white son who said, hey, you're not allowed to sit there. And this black student takes out a knife and stabs your son to death.

Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
And this should be a huge nationwide news story, and no one is talking about it whatsoever. No one is talking about it. And this white kid was stabbed by this black student. We're supposed to act as if that's acceptable and fine. Could you imagine if a white student... stabbed a black kid to death because the black kid said, hey, you're not allowed to sit there. It'd be George Floyd 2.0.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
They'd all have shirts. It'd be Michael Brown, hands up, don't shoot. The guy who stabbed Austin Metcalf, his name is Carmelo Anthony with a K. So this white kid is sitting there. Carmelo Anthony takes out a knife and stabs him to death. Again, the father can act and react however he wants. I thought it was a disappointing interview.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
He should have just stayed silent or at the very least just said, I'm just in so much heartbreak right now. Instead, he went above and beyond to say it wasn't racial when obviously, of course, it was racial. And so he went on one day after. OK, so how do you talk to parents when you disagree with them? Look, keep dialogue going. Disagreement is OK. You have to honor your parents.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
It is a biblical commandment. And I would say this, look, try to be as respectful as possible. I know so many people that have, you know, severe disagreements and they are still able to keep things going. We love debate on the show, but try to keep it civil and try to keep it warm. Try to keep it congenial and try to stay away from insults or throwing names or accusations at one another.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
So thank you so much, Brandy. God bless you. Let me just kind of tell you a little bit more about this Austin Metcalf situation. If you're not aware of this story, that is evidence that the propaganda networks that maybe you're getting information from, they're not doing their job. And you should listen to The Charlie Kirk Show more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
You should listen to Salem Radio Network more, to Real America's Voice. Austin Metcalf, it's this heart-wrenching story. He was a football recruit, and literally his identical twin watched him die and be stabbed to death by this black maniac, and held him while he died.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Ask Charlie Anything 218: The Red State Paradox? Transition Accountability? Stock Market Angst?
And the father of Austin Metcalf, which is what made this so controversial, the father went on Fox News, I think it was Fox News or some cable show, the day after, and effectively... And I don't want to put words in his mouth, but was like, this isn't racial. We shouldn't make it about the attacker. And again, I pray that I'll never be in that situation.

Maybe Blake can read it in one of the Federalist Papers why we have that kind of gap. There is a widespread Western revolt against beta male open border liberalism. There is a widespread revolt in the West to close our borders, kick out the invaders, shrink inflation, and to restore national sovereignty. An alpha male renaissance.

So just walk through the process of why this took so long. And do you believe one of the reasons he is stepping down is this Western trend that is rejecting leaders like Trudeau, Harris, Biden, and that are going towards leaders like Maroney, Malay, that are going towards leaders like Bukele, like Trump, and maybe even Polivere. Do you think that is playing into Trudeau's calculus here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Okay, so Ezra, I want to go back in time because we're recollecting on January 6th and how far we have come. I think there's a similar type of moment that deserves recollection where you guys had your dark winter of the soul, which was the Canadian trucker incident, which if I'm not mistaken was three years ago or four years ago. I can't quite remember. February 2022. OK, yes. Three years ago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
So no, no, no. Thank you. Similar type of time span where that, in my personal opinion, looking as an American into your country, seemed as if where you guys really turned a corner into Soviet style totalitarianism. Walk us through this, Ezra, how those events unfolded and how you guys never gave up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Like, whatever, it's January 6th. But four years ago, January 6th took on new meaning. January 6th, of course, was the meeting date for the certification of the 2020 election. An election that we know was full of so many problems. So much lying and deceit and tomfoolery and fraud and nonsense across the board. We know that... The 2020 election was a drive-by shooting of the U.S. Constitution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Mm-hmm. So Ezra, do you believe that this can be the beginning of a more robust, conservative, common sense realignment?
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
And January 6th was a meeting point of so much of that passion and that fury. And we all remember what happened on that day. But on that day, we had an incomplete picture of actually what was going on. We had an incomplete picture.

It seemed as if, to an untrained eye, it was Trump supporters that got so out of control, some of which may or may not have been organized, and try to storm the government. We did not appreciate or understand how many FBI agents were involved, how many deep state actors were involved. We did not know the complexities or the details of how Ashley Babbitt was murdered in cold blood.

Understand the bad guys thought that January 6th was a gift to them from the political gods to be able to own, monopolize, and dominate the political discourse for a generation and the political power for a generation. They saw their opening and they went for it. What ensued was the most over-the-top exercise of legal authority and the criminal justice system we've seen in the modern era.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
From granny's homes being raided to patriots in Homer, Alaska being hunted down by FBI agents. We've now learned that doors were opened for some of the protesters. Protesters even stayed inside of rope lines. That this was largely an entrapment operation. They said it was the biggest attack since Pearl Harbor. Or even worse than Pearl Harbor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
And they said that because they could justify declaring war on their fellow citizens. There was even a talk by John Brennan of a new Patriot Act. In fact, can you guys get that tape of John Brennan a couple weeks after January 6th? I think it was January 19th on MSNBC where he said, we anti-government types and libertarians must be spied on and rooted out of our country. It was a chilling clip.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
They were talking about expanding federal surveillance authority. They thought they had their Reichstag fire. And the Reichstag fire, of course, was used by the National Socialist Workers Party of Nazi Germany to be able to justify complete and total governmental control. The communists did this. Give us total control. No more civil liberties. No more freedom. No more freedom association.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
We're in control. You are not. Too bad. So sad. They went all in on a January 6th narrative, and it was hard to escape. And they thought that our movement, and yes, of course, the figurehead and the leader of our movement was politically dead. They thought it was over.
The Charlie Kirk Show

They said Donald Trump is going to be put in exile, and if he dares to try to cross the line to run for political office again, we're going to lock him in prison for 700 years. They thought they had the movement dead to rights. They were certain on this day, four years ago,
The Charlie Kirk Show

that if they compare it to Pearl Harbor and compare it to the Civil War and call it an insurrection, that they would break our will. And a lot of people went through a lot. I was subpoenaed by the January 6th committee. A lot of people I know were subpoenaed by the January 6th committee, all for nonsensical, ridiculous stuff.

Steve Bannon served federal prison time because of the illegitimate January 6th committee. Peter Navarro served prison time because of the illegitimate January 6th committee. Illegally constituted with Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. Of course, Donald Trump authorized 10,000 National Guard troops, but was rejected. This day was a day they wanted to try to say, well, live in infamy.

It was the Pearl Harbor of those crazy MAGA folks that wear those red hats and they own guns and they go to church and they live in the countryside. When they get too big of a voice, they try to storm the government. But there was more to the story. And this is where you in this audience deserve such credit. You did not accept the media narrative as is. You started digging.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
You went to alternative media. You went to Rumble. You went to X. You went to other social media platforms. And remember, it was because of January the 6th that Donald Trump was kicked off of Spotify. He was kicked off of Pinterest as if he was a big Pinterest user. He was kicked off of Facebook. He was kicked off of Instagram.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
And he lost his Twitter account as a sitting president of the United States. Donald Trump lost his Twitter account as a sinning president of the United States. Four years ago, we entered the lowest point the conservative movement has been at in 100 years. Ever since the founding of our country, it looked completely dark. It was the darkest midnight of winter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
The bad guys controlled the House and they controlled the Senate. And don't forget, The night before January 6th on January 5th, the Democrats won control of the U.S. Senate. Raphael Warnock and John Ossoff won their Senate seats in Georgia on January 5th, 2021 in the Georgia runoff, which gave them the control of the Senate. And it was just another demoralization gut punch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
They control the House and they control the Senate. They control the presidency. It was the dark night of the soul. And it was not a time for sunshine patriots. And you know what I'm talking about? All these people that are all up. But, oh, I supported Trump. No, you didn't. You were out trying to duck and run for cover when those of us had to go lawyer up and higher up. And we were on the run.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
There was a worry and a concern that the first couple of days we said, are they going to go raid the offices of Turning Point USA? Is the FBI just going to kind of show up and say, FBI, give us all your computers. Give us all your devices. We didn't know. We were so directionally confused.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Because January 6th gave them that confidence where the media just would have rolled up, CNN truck, boom, turning point offices be raided. We didn't know. We had no idea what was happening in real time. We, of course, did nothing wrong and we had no involvement. That doesn't mean anything. They had a mandate to finally go shock and awe. to go blitzkrieg against their enemies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
And we were at midnight of the dark night of the soul. January 6th and the days and months and year and a half and two years that followed was the valley forge of the MAGA movement. We stuck it out through the most trying period, and it made ourselves stronger. It was that old Nietzsche quote, what does not kill you makes you stronger. And we bent and we didn't break, but some people did break.

I remember we lost donors. We lost supporters. We lost students. We lost chapters. We lost pastors. It was too much for them. They didn't have the stomach. They didn't have the spine.

It took years and years. It took a resolve. It took a grittedness. It took a cussedness where we did not accept the premise and we dove deeper. We asked the questions like, who is the pipe bomber? Who is Ray Epps? Who killed Ashley Babbitt? Who killed Brian Sitnik? Is the FBI telling us the truth? Why have you not released the January 6 tapes? What crime did the QAnon shaman actually break?

Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier. So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule. You'll learn to quiet cravings and finally release the unhealthy belly fat. You won't be hungry and you'll never take medication.

It's very, very hard to capture the heaviness and the weight of of what was experiencing the day after January 6th, the days after January 6th. And that's the new day one, by the way. The new day one is not, oh, were you there at the Golden Escalator?
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
The new day one is, did you have President Trump's back the day after January 6th? Did you still support him? Did you understand this movement was unbreakable? It would have been so easy for you to surrender. We had the tech companies against us, the major banks against us, the oligarchs against us, every major billionaire against us. You could not even find a lawyer to represent you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
I've actually never talked about this publicly. I was subpoenaed by the January 6th committee. I had to go through 10 different lawyers, 10 different lawyers. Before one agreed to represent me. Ten. They said, oh no, we decided not to represent any clients that were involved in January 6th. I wasn't involved in January 6th. I was in Arizona on January 6th. They said, too bad. Understand this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
That these people are willing to go represent cartels and drug smugglers and child sex traffickers. And I went through ten different law firms. I spent all day when I found out that this whole thing was going to turn into a committee, like a day and a half, going from one Zoom call to the next, trying to get a lawyer to represent me. Sorry, no. Sorry, no. Sorry, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Even after I told them all the facts and circumstances, the legal community was so against representing anyone in the Trump orbit because people in the Trump world were viewed as insurrectionists. Front page of thehill.com. Who is Liz Peek, by the way? Never should be taken seriously again. Front page, Trump's political career is over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
And just like that, the bold, combustible, and sometimes brilliant political career of Donald J. Trump comes to an end. Trump's presidency will now go down as a mis-experiment, a cautionary tale about the cult of personality and the riskiness of electing an outsider. It is a tragedy. It is a tragedy because among other accomplishments, Trump inspired and mobilized tens and thousands of people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Is Liz Peek always on Fox? What a joke she is. Can we tweet at her? It's just disgusting. I mean, these people need to be held accountable. I'm sure she's trying to warm herself back into the inauguration. Can I get tickets to this ball? No, Liz Peek, you don't get tickets to that ball, okay? Sorry. You said that Trump's political career is over. She says here...
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
In her piece, very bluntly, there will be a core group of loyal Trump supporters that make excuses for the events of January 6th. The numbers will shrink as he leaves office and enthusiasm for his ongoing leadership of the Republican Party will decline, Liz Peek writes. There are plenty of GOP legislators eager to fill his shoes. Those folks will do their best to hasten Trump's decline.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
This is the intelligentsia by which he's a Republican. This was the intelligentsia of the Republican Party being taken seriously by the Wall Street Journal. And what happened next was a deep state attempt to intimidate and demoralize our movement.

We didn't know whether or not all of a sudden our office was going to be filled with dark-looking SUVs and a bunch of people with purple hair with FBI vests coming in and taking all of our devices. We didn't know. They saw their shot, and boy, did they go for it. Thousands of people indicted.
The Charlie Kirk Show
America is Back, Is Canada Next?
Thousands of people indicted to set the table to try and eliminate the MAGA movement, to eliminate our movement. And it turns out we're a lot tougher than that because we are not a movement... that just, you know, we're passively involved. It made us anti-fragile. It's a term I've used many times. In fact, I gave the first speech about anti-fragility back in February of 2021.

The doctrine of anti-fragility, as authored by Nassim Taleb in his book, Anti-Fragile, is that there are fragile institutions, those that shatter. There are tough institutions, those that do not shatter. And then there are anti-fragile institutions, those that get stronger the more you attack them. that they actually grow in their resolve.

But honestly, Todd, you're going to have to come up with a new title and a new book because we're not overrun any longer. Todd, welcome to the program.

So, Todd, I just want to repeat those numbers. Two hundred seventy seven a day and all of which are being returned to their country of origin. They're not being released into the interior. One one thing that is striking to me before we dive more into the cleanup. Is that how prepared President Trump's team was for that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Saving The Border in One Month
You say that it's the lowest ever recorded, but that means that President Trump is even beating his records from the first Trump term. What did the Trump team learn, especially during those four years off, so that day one they were so prepared, where in the first term they were still figuring this out?

And also that the there were several Supreme Court decisions that laid the basis that they could move quickly. Remember last time there was injunction after injunction.

And just a reminder, everybody, James Lankford, if you're from Oklahoma, that guy lied to you. He went and tried to do a deal with the worst people in the world, the Democrats, saying, oh, we need all this money to secure the border. No, what you needed was President Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And you gave the Democrats an unnecessary talking point throughout the election that probably helped them win one or two extra Senate seats. That's all on Mr. Lankford. So don't forget that.

But Zelensky has other means, other goals and some means to get there. What they are exactly, I'm not sure. And Zelensky keeps on saying, well, my people want this.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Understanding how unpopular Zelensky has become. This is from CNN, Harry Enten, who does a very good job, I have to say. Play cut three.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Joining us now is Senator Mullen from Oklahoma, Senator Mark Wayne Mullen. Senator, thank you for taking the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Yes, I can. Good to see you, my friend. How are you?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
All good. No worries. Well, thank you for taking the time. So give us what is your reaction of the Oval Office meeting that happened on Friday? The now famous between Zelensky, J.D. Vance and the president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
I paused and I said, come on, what are you talking about? They're just there to sign a mineral rights deal. There's no way. I said, no, I'm looking at it right now. I said, all right, well, I believe you, but I'll have to see it for myself. I spent three hours on campus at Florida State University. We had amazing exchanges, phenomenal crowd, really terrific turnout.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
So what do you think is the path forward? Do you think that Zelensky should remain as leader of his country? Should he resign? I mean, this was such a blatant disrespect to the United States of what happened in the Oval Office.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
So, Senator, I don't want to indulge too much in this, but do you think at the very least that Zelensky had a false sense of confidence because of the meeting beforehand? I mean, where would he get off like this? Because it was trending fine. It would have been a win for America, a win for President Trump. Our audience is perplexed by this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
And then I opened up my phone and there I saw it. The exchange that went around the world, by far, the most viral moment to date of President Trump's new administration. And you can just see there that was the crowd at Florida State University. It was historic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
No doubt. In closing here, Senator, what is the path forward? Because it looks as if this is a broken deal. The Europeans are talking a big game, but you and I both know that they don't have the powder. They don't have the dry powder to do this. They don't have the economic might. They don't have the military might. They don't have the technological backing. They don't have the people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
They don't have the military prowess. So what is the path forward here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Senator, safe journeys and travels. Thank you for taking the time today, and good luck cleaning up this mess because it's a big one. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
So, look, the situation at hand is immense, but you've got to love President Trump for standing up for our country and not allowing the metaphorical desecration of the Oval Office to happen there, which is basically what's happening. You're going to go pick a fight with our vice president? It's outrageous. Now, the media, how are they reacting to this? predictably.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
It's what we have been waiting for, and we are going to analyze and break it down because we were not able to do that on Friday or over the weekend. And I thought about doing a show over the weekend. I said, you know what? This news is moving so fast that anything I say is just going to be outdated a couple hours later.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
But before I even get into this, into that, I want to play this. Let's play cut 19. More of President Trump dressing down Zelensky. Play cut 19. Your country is in big trouble.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
I'm not one to give, you know, let's just say unique advice. But here's some good rules for life. If Zelensky actually wanted the deal, which I'm not convinced he did. Number one, you never interrupt a president of the United States, regardless of who that president is. But you especially don't interrupt President Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
And you especially don't interrupt President Trump when your country is in total ruins and you have no leverage whatsoever. Again, I'm not confident that he intentionally sabotaged this. What I'm getting at is that there very well might have been a false sense of confidence of somebody whispering in his ear that if you play a strong man, it's all going to end up fine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
In fact, we want you to stand up for Trump, to stand up to Trump, that Trump will fold, that you need to do that. I think that somebody put that in his ear. And President Trump is dressing him down, as he should. You don't have the cards. And you could tell President Trump is getting so mad because he says, listen, I got guys on both sides of this deal here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
I got to deal with you, and I got to deal with the Russians. And President Trump is basically saying, we're trying to do this mineral thing, which is nothing for you. You don't have a country. Of course you're going to give away half your mineral rights. You don't have a country. This is statecraft on display. And Zelenskyy going on and on about how he can potentially win the war.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
He will not win the war. Since the beginning, that has been clear and evident, despite the fact we've spent hundreds of billions of dollars. Hey, Charlie Kirk here.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
So on Friday, Mr. Zelensky, wearing his Sunday best, showed up at the White House, strolled all in to the Oval Office and sat down for a long meeting with President Trump, J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio. Now, let me pause. The media is misrepresenting what happened on Friday. It was over a 40-minute discussion. Many people are only catching 30 seconds of it or two minutes of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So right after this blows up in the Oval Office, all of these European leaders start to tweet out support of Zelensky. And then this weekend, Keir Starmer hosted some sort of summit for Zelensky that all the leaders got on planes to come and surround him.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
If you were of the believer that this was staged, this certainly plays into that belief. Now, understand this. The Europeans don't have what it takes. Now, if the Europeans suddenly want to go raise a military and want to go actually support Ukraine, where has this been all along? Why does America have to fund 70% of NATO? Our GDP is about equal with Europe's.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
If you combine all of Europe and all America, we're slightly richer. If Europe responded to this by upping their defense spending, we would be thrilled. We would be very, very happy. We want Europe to take more responsibility for its security. We want Europe to have more self-determination. So mission accomplished, I guess. I just laugh at these Europeans that say, oh, we can't give more to NATO.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We can't give more to... And all of a sudden, boom, as soon as they're put in a corner, we're going to up our defense spending. Now, here is a tricky little sliver that we have to keep an eye on. Keir Starmer, the pseudo-Marxist prime minister of the United Kingdom, of the Labour Party, says that he's going to put British troops on the ground in Ukraine. You might think, great, here's the problem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
As soon as a single British troop is killed, it very well might trigger Article 5. Article 5 of NATO is a mutual defense agreement. An attack on one is an attack on all. So if the United Kingdom is going to put 10,000 troops in Ukraine and Russia kills 100 British soldiers, that triggers Article 5. That means American soldiers very well might be next and we might be involved in this situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Should we stay involved in NATO? Why are we in NATO if it's about getting us involved in a conflict, not keeping conflict from happening? Trump needs to get out in front of this, and he will. He needs to call all these leaders and say, this is a bunch of BS. I'm brokering peace. Stop all of your... Yammering.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We're supposed to believe that the Europeans are going to be able to mount an army up against the Russians. NATO is designed to be a deterrent, but what NATO has done is actually provoked more conflict than it's prevented over the last decade. Let's go to some of the media reports here. Let's go to 25.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
That's Christine Amanpour from CNN. She is right about one thing. We've never seen anything like this. And I haven't seen anything like this in my lifetime. You know what that is? A president resolutely putting our nation first. A president drawing a line and saying, no, go fight your own war. If you want to go stand on yourself, that is not our obligation. We are here for peace.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
If you want to get the entire story, you should watch all 40 minutes. Zelensky needs America. America does not need Zelensky. Ukraine needs America. America does not need Ukraine. And then at a certain moment, things started to escalate. Things started to bubble up. JD Vance and Zelensky started to kind of go back and forth. The first three-fourths of the meeting were uneventful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We're here for a ceasefire. But our red line is we're not going to be bullied into a conflict and being told, oh, Russia is coming here next. No, it's not. We have an ocean and a great military, and we're very wealthy. The Ukrainians, not so much. And it's refreshing to finally see a president putting America first. Thanks so much for listening, everybody.

Buckle up everybody, here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Now, credit to President Trump for allowing the cameras to run. For saying, no, we want the American people to see all this. We want you to be in the room. And remember, this is why they hate Donald Trump. Because he brings you into the room. He brings you to the table. You have a seat at the table. You see how the negotiations are going.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
If we are going to go to World War III, we want you to be able to decide who's in the right and who is in the wrong. Not leaks. Not one-off accounts. We the people own the table. Under Joe Biden or that entire regime, they never would have thought of bringing in the press for 40 minutes, which, again, I just find so laughable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
On campuses, some of these liberals will say, oh, Donald Trump is attack on the free press, attack on the free press. He let the press for 40 minutes in the Oval Office uninterrupted get the best ratings for daytime TV that they've ever seen. So I want to play some of the longer cuts here intentionally just to kind of set the table. J.D.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Vance, in this nearly two-minute clip, and it's very, very rare for us to play a two-minute clip here on this program, but it's worth it. It's historic. We want to play it in context. This started to bubble up. And J.D. Vance asked a very simple question. Do you think it's respectful to come to the Oval Office and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Zelensky got very mad. All Zelensky had to do was just say, I love America. Thank you, America. I'm so thankful for America. America is wonderful. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It's all he had to say. But Zelensky can't help himself. Something about Zelensky and how he feels or his attitude or there's something more sinister going on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
I think there's somebody in Zelensky's ear and I'll get to that. I think there's either Senate Democrats or deep state actors in the Central Intelligence Agency that are undermining President Trump's potential win here in Ukraine that got in Zelensky's ear. saying that there might be some that tried to undermine this deal quietly because this was a masterclass by President Trump and J.D. Vance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
But you have to wonder, was Zelensky sent on a kamikaze mission to blow this up? Here is the long tape. It's nearly two minutes. One of the more historic moments in American diplomacy ever caught on camera, play cut 22.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We've never seen anything like this. And I just have to marvel at how transparent this administration is. You want to get on what side do you stand on? Do you stand on the side of the foreigner come and begging for money? Or do you stand on the side of America? And by the way, it keeps going and it kept going and we're going to keep on analyzing it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We have never seen or heard anything like this, a public collapse of a deal. It never, ever happens on camera. And I think this is one of the healthiest developments in American diplomacy. Sometimes deals don't go the right way. Sometimes they go the correct way. But you deserve to know all the elements involved.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
If we are going to keep on sleepwalking closer and closer into a war, you should know why. If we're going to get away from Ukraine, you deserve why. To know why. And J.D. Vance asking the question, who are you to say what our country is and is not going to do? And you're going to see in the next clip, in the next segment, what really set off President Trump. It really set him off.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
When Zelensky was telling Donald Trump that America might be involved in a war against Russia and Zelensky even tries to walk it back. And what an arrogant attitude that Zelensky brought into the White House. You have to wonder, did Zelensky even want a deal? Of course he does on the surface, but he wasn't acting like it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Before that meeting, he had another meeting at the Hay-Adams with Democrat establishment and Republican establishment senators who probably gave him a false sense of confidence. He has the attitude of migrants who are coming to America and Europe. Give me more. I want this. You need to give us that. Well, that's not the way it works with President Trump and J.D. Vance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
If you don't respect the Oval Office and respect our country, then you're going to get kicked out, which is exactly what happened. private student loan debt in the United States totals about $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. YRefi refinances distressed or defaulted private student loan debt that others will not touch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. That is YRefi.com. That is Y-R-E-F-I.com. If you are a private student loan borrower, This could be a great solution for you. Many clients are not even able to make the minimum monthly payment on their private student loans when they first contact YRefi. YRefi is also the sponsor of our campus tour.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
They have helped sponsor America Fest and more. So go to YRefi.com. Do you have a co-borrower? YRefi can get them released from the loan. You can give mom or dad a break. So check it out at YRefi.com. You don't have to ignore that mountain of student loan statements on your kitchen table anymore. That is YRefi.com.

When the payment's on, your distressed or defaulted private student loan is so big that you can't even get a hold of your finances. That is YRefi. It may not be available in all states. So check it out at YRefi.com. It continued. President Donald Trump, to his great credit, stood up for his number two, J.D. Vance. He saw what was going on here. He said, wait a second.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
You don't talk to my number two this way. You don't talk to my guy this way. This guy loves America. He's my number two. I picked him. And then President Trump got involved. You see, Zelensky thought that he could kind of slap around J.D. Vance a little bit because he's been told by his oligarch handlers that, oh, J.D. Vance is an isolationist, but Trump is with you. Oh, no, no, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Zelensky antagonized this entire administration. He antagonized the American people with his smug, arrogant attitude. All Zelensky had to do was keep his head down and say, yes, sir, yes, sir. Again, it begs the question, did Zelensky actually want a deal? Was Zelensky sent with an ulterior motive to blow this up and make President Trump look bad? Zelensky has no humility.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
When people are in a war, it radicalizes them. They get obsessed and hateful. It's just how war is. It's understandable to a certain extent that Zelensky completely hates Russia. Who could blame him? But to be a statesman, you have to overcome it. The quick detail there is important. We're not talking about a peace deal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
First, we're talking about a ceasefire to stop the killing that can then lead to a peace deal. Let's just have a ceasefire. Let's stop the killing and bring everybody to the table. But Zelensky, with his arms crossed, no, no, no, we're not doing that. In the art of the deal, President Trump says, without us, you're going to get obliterated.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
And then the Europeans are acting all uppity this weekend. You got Keir Starmer and you got the Germans. What are they going to do? With what army is the UK and the Germans going to support Ukraine? Trump is trying to tell him, look, stop trying to tell us that Putin is bad. We get it. Stop trying to get me to say that. I'm trying to make a deal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
You see, President Trump actually understands the basic principle and idea of diplomacy. Because if President Trump goes on, oh, Putin's the worst person ever. He's a dictator. How is he going to pick up the phone to a Russian federation whose relationship was severely damaged, if not broken and shattered by the Biden administration? So President Trump has a very difficult task.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
He has to resurrect and rebuild diplomatic channels with Russia while simultaneously trying to get these lunatics in Ukraine to calm down and to mute their bloodlust. It's a very difficult diplomatic balance. Because President Trump, after this, has got on the phone with the Russians, and they have a million different complaints. We've got sanctions on them. We've kicked out their diplomats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
My team tells me University of Georgia was a little bit bigger.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
We're sending missiles into the interior of Russia. Our weaponry has been responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of Russians. They're not happy with us. And so President Trump is trying to show, no, this is different. We're going to stop offensive cyber operations against you, which was probably a bunch of nothing anyways, probably just a bunch of hocus pocus. And Zelensky is against it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
Why? Because he says Putin violates ceasefires? Okay, well, we'll cross that bridge when we get there. There's a new president in town. But Zelensky is not someone who wants peace, and that's a tragedy. Because absent the United States of America backstopping Ukraine, Russia would take over the entire country of Ukraine, which would not be good. It would be a tragedy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Was Trump/Zelensky a Setup?
easily three to four thousand students but of course the local papers say hundreds of people that's nonsense that's not what we're talking about today as i was on campus a young man came up and asked a question he said charlie breaking news right here as we are on campus at florida state university donald trump and jd vance just descended into a shouting match with zelensky

So let's put up that chart that we had yesterday. It's really interesting. The of people no longer identifying as religious or spiritual or Christian. And so it was marching down. But in the last couple of years, post-COVID, we've seen it tick up a little bit. So during COVID, it went down, and now we are seeing a slight resurgence, dare we call it a revival.

two or three weeks previous to that, and there were protests everywhere. When we returned to the University of Florida and we were met with over 2,000 friendly supporters, 2,000 students. In fact, it was so overwhelming at the end, there almost was a creation of a tunnel where I had to walk through to be able to exit people asking for selfies and for signatures.

History, economics, the great works of literature. Did you study these things in school? Probably not. Or even if you did, maybe it's time for an enjoyable refresher. Hillsdale College is offering more than 40 free online courses, including their newest course on totalitarian novels.

Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
In this free eight-lecture course, you'll learn from Hillsdale College president Larry Arnn as he goes in-depth on four novels, 1984, Brave New World, Darkness at Noon, and That Hideous Strength. I love all four. Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature.

More importantly, they can show us that faith, family, and friends are worth fighting for. Maybe you read these books a long time ago in school. Maybe you've heard others talk about them, and they seem a little intimidating. Let Hillsdale College, America's greatest college, help you make the most of them.

There's no cost, and it's easy to get started. That is charlieforhillsdale.com, C-H-A-R-L-I-E, forhillsdale.com. We must remind people the Constitution is incompatible with a faithless nation. The Constitution and a faithless nation cannot coexist, and we need a belief in the eternal and the divine.

And I do want to mention this just because it's about this topic of faith, that there has been a terrible situation for Christians, and I'll connect the dots here in a second. In the Democratic Republic of Congo, 70 believers were beheaded in church. and it received no attention at all whatsoever from the mainstream media or from any coverage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
That's right, 70 Christians were beheaded, and these were Islamic jihadists and are a threat to Judeo-Christian civilization. We as Christians need to realize how good we have it here in America and how amazing the freedoms and liberties that we enjoy. Scott, as you do this work at SaturateUSA, remind our audience—

how all of them can take it upon themselves to spread the gospel and spread the word. What does this look like in practice?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
It was very similar to like a college football team entering a stadium. There were a couple liberals, one interaction in particular that will probably go viral of a young man who was not dumb. He was very passionate, well-read. And I asked him, I said, are you guys willing to move on from this idea that men can compete in women's sports? I said, it's not popular.

Can we just end the chapter on this? And he said, absolutely not. He said that trans men should be able to compete and trans women should be able to compete in women's sports. He was so married to it. And for any of you that think the Democrats are going to adjust from the grassroots, it's not going to happen.

Now, there might be a candidate that comes in and declares war on the base of the Democrat Party. But the base of the Democrat Party is more on board for this nonsense than ever before. The base of the Democrat Party. thinks that there's nothing wrong with men stealing medals and awards from women. They have made a deal with the trans zealots of the base of their party, and they are married to it.

But more broadly, the biggest takeaway is how the Democrat base has never had to deal with losing a culture war battle. They can't psychologically accept it. They've never had to do this in their existence. They are outnumbered now on campus. No, not necessarily outnumbered. I think if you took a poll on campus, these campuses are still probably five to 10 points to the left.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
But there's a passivity to the Democrat activism on campus. There is none. And there is energy and there is vitality behind any one of us that are Trump supporting conservatives. Everything they can remember is as far as being Democrats and leftists, has always been a one-way ratchet. There were professors. It's very interesting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
I'm getting more and more teachers and professors that are coming up and asking me questions, which, of course, I'm well. This is not just a student, prove me wrong, anybody. There was a PhD professor, professor of history. And, oh, one of those moments, I wish that Blake would have been there. Oh, I wish Blake would have been there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
This guy was a PhD of the interwar period between World War I and World War II. And, look, I know... a little bit about that. I know in the general population, a fair amount, but a little bit compared to this guy was, he was like, well, Charlie, don't you see the similarities between the rise of Hitler and the rise of Donald Trump? I teach this professionally. I'm a PhD.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
And I think that everyone needs to know that the rise of Hitler and Donald Trump are very similar. It's just, it's such a sloppy, shallow analysis. It's total garbage. It's complete garbage. And this was his contention in front of the entire audience, him being the PhD. And Blake just made a great point in the chat, which is exactly right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
I told them, I said, can you please get another reference point other than Nazi Germany? So Blake and I are on the same page. I said, can you read about any other country at any other time? There's a lot of other things that happen in history other than the evils of the 1930s and the 1940s. And he's just so focused on this saying, nope, most important thing ever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
Donald Trump's rise is very similar to the rise of Hitler. What is so important, everybody, is that we are living through a potential generational realignment that could become permanent. James Carville wrote a piece. If you guys can pull up this piece, I think it's very important. James Carville wrote a piece giving his recommendations for the Democrat Party.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
James Carville said, listen, we as Democrats don't have a leader. We don't have the energy on the ground. He suggested and recommended that Democrats roll over and play dead. That was James Carville's recommendation. Roll over and play dead. And that is a very dangerous and unusual political strategy. He said, quote, we need a strategic political retreat, a strategic political retreat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
And I can tell you in modern digital political warfare, I don't think that's going to work for them. Again, I could be wrong because every day we are winning over new converts. Every day we are winning over new young fans. And there is no sizable, well-funded opposition. And it really makes you wonder that once you stop the funding at USAID, all of a sudden these campuses simmer down a little bit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
Now I know I might be going a little too far in that direction, but it really makes you think, how much of a racket of a money flow was USAID towards the pressure campaign of the left? James Carville is basically saying this. Stop. Stop it all. Wait and hope Trump screws up. But so far, Trump's strategy has been popular, and I think we're in a brave new era.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
I think we're in a completely new chapter. The digital online chapter where news is moving with such high velocity. We are reaching new demographics and new audiences. James Carville says, quote, the best thing Democrats can do at this moment is Roll over and play dead. Allow the Republicans to crumble beneath their own weight and make the American people miss us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
Only until the Trump administration is spiraled into the low 40s or 30s in public approval should we make like a pack of hyenas and go for the juggle. Until then, I'm calling for a strategic political retreat. It's very, very risky, Mr. Carville, because what if we're actually increasing our ranks? And by the way, it's not just funding USAID. It's cuts to NIH, NSF, and the ban on DEI colleges.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Do you guys know when you get an NIH grant? Let me take the University of Pennsylvania, for example. The University of Pennsylvania will do a lot of NIH research and they'll apply for these grants. Do you know that they are able to mark up on top of the grant 10, 25, 40% for overhead? Donald Trump signed an executive order capping what is called a supplementation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
It's a supplementation adage to any NIH grant to only be 10%. If that ends up being held up in court, which of course it should be, the University of Pennsylvania will lose $270 million a year. Let me say that again. The University of Pennsylvania will lose $270 million a year if they only get 10% for supplementation. That's just one school. That is a singular school, everybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
$270 million a year. These universities are now sending out panicked emails. We got an internal email from an Ivy League school notifying everyone that at their conference are brown bag lunches now. No more free taxpayer lunches, literally. James Carville says for the Democrats, stay put, don't do anything, roll over, play dead.

While we at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action are embarking on the most aggressive evangelism campaign, for lack of a better term, conversion campaign, persuasion campaign, and it's working.

In fact, the dialogue at University of South Florida, I had a young man bring up something in regards to the trans debate that I should have known, but I didn't. And I did some research called the Swire syndrome at a campus at University of Florida. There were other little elements. There was a young man, you guys will get a kick out of this video, saying that we need to legalize LSD.

I will get marijuana a lot, and there were some guys smoking marijuana the whole time yesterday. It smelled terrible. but I will always get a question on Israel. And of course, we are America first here on this program. We are not America only. Israel is an ally. I love Israel. I treasure Israel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
It's a beautiful country, not a perfect government, and not everything they've ever done is admirable or good or defensible, nor is the American government. That's not the point. But Israel as a nation is is a place worth defending. Israel as a place with sovereignty and borders.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
And Israel shines a lot brighter when you contrast it with the barbarism and the disgusting behavior, that's being very sweet, the butchery, For anyone that has eyes to see and ears to hear and actually reads the Qadith and reads parts of the Quran, you know that conquest is an Islamic value. To submit is literally what Islam means, to make those submit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
It's very hard to get serious Muslims to admit to this, that they actually do want conquest, that they do want to take over. Gaddafi said something similar in the late 90s, saying that we're going to take over Europe without ever having to lift a sword. So there has definitely been enough intellectual cover that said this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
We've had imams in England saying they want to mount the West like a woman to be mounted and subdued. This young man, I understand he's just a young man, I believe, though, is an embodiment of a lot of the Islamic world. Islamic has rules for how to distribute the spoils of war, including sex slaves. This is a mindset that is dominant, a worldview that is popularized in the Islamic Arab world.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
This video is going viral. It is worth listening to carefully. Play cut 245. If Israel laid down all of their weapons and said our military is no more, what would happen?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
If Israel disbanded its military, what would happen?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
So, no, I just want to make sure I understand. So they would just take over mostly peacefully?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
Can you show me an example of Jews living peacefully under Islamic rule?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
There was a nine month old baby that just got returned home in a as a corpse by Hamas. But understand that that young man, which is not an embodiment of all Muslims, I get along with a lot of Muslims, but that young man, who I do not believe is a vast minority, believes that the example of how Jews and Muslims should coexist in the Middle East is what happened when Hamas took these Jews hostage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is It Time for Democrats to "Play Dead?"
That's what he believes is an example of living peacefully, when they slit the throats of these young little babies and returned them back as corpses. The Israeli Hamas struggle is one versus civilization and barbarism. Remember that.

In fact, Ryan could probably go back into the archives. I, back in 2019, visited the University of Florida, and we were getting screamed at, and we had protesters. It was not an easy campus visit.

He's an amazing entrepreneur, father of four. He's young, and I think he'd be a great replacement for Elise Stefanik up in New York 21. Possible candidate, just a rock star, founder and CEO of Parker Communications. I hope you guys understand. He's in his mid-20s, like 26, 27.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
And by the way, he's being considered by all the very serious power brokers to potentially fill Elise's seat because she's going to the UN. And again, he's a father of four at 27, was on Shark Tank, had an amazing maple syrup business, really, really powerful Parker Communications company with hundreds of employees. And it's Josh Parker. He joins us now. Josh, welcome to the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Amber, there's some recent news here, at least some new video footage, that shows if the helicopter was almost not pursuing but accelerating into the airplane. What is the latest news here? And break it down for the audience of what your theory is what happened that evening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Great to see you. Thanks so much, Charlie. Great to be with you. Tell us, where are you? I was going to introduce it to the audience. You're here at the northern border, which doesn't get as much coverage. Tell us about what you're seeing and hearing on the northern border and the need for border security up there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
And that's why I think you would be a phenomenal congressman for that district. I want to play this piece of tape here where you did a ride-along. And again, I want everyone to understand, you might think, oh, you know, who's coming across the border? There are some savage terrorists here. This is cut 177. Get ready for this. This is footage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
I want you guys to watch carefully here on Real America's Voice and on our streaming platforms of the people that are running across the northern border. These are stone-cold killers, some of them. Terrorists, ISIS, people that want us harmed. When you think of our border invasion, you think of Guadalajara. You think of the southern border where I live in Arizona.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
But understand, we have been invaded from all fronts. The northern border gets almost no coverage whatsoever because you think it's just a bunch of, you know, very nice talking Canadians that are trying to exchange, you know, dollars for maple syrup or whatever. No, no, no. Listen and watch carefully. Stone cold killers. Play cut 177.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Now, what country of origin are these, Josh? I think that's an important question. And reiterate the point that the influx of terrorists is disproportionately from the northern border. Please reiterate that very important point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
So talk about how that impacts your hometown. I mean, New York 21, Elise Stefanik's been doing a great job. She's going to represent everybody really well at the UN. But your hometown is very rural. Yeah. and with it being very MAGA, but also there's a lot of drug issues. You have a lot of issues of depressed wages. Your hometown, in some ways, is a picture of forgotten America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
I mean, it is the North-North country. Talk about the depression that has been invited into your community and how an open border – of people we don't even know, the Pakistani, Indian, 97 countries, has contributed to the jeopardization of your hometown, the North Country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
So, Josh, I want you to just talk more about yourself for a second here. I mean, you've actually built a business in the district. You know what it takes. Just kind of, again, you're 27, father of four. You're ahead of me here, so I've got to catch up a little bit. But you've decided to do this in your hometown, and this is something that we talk about a lot on our show.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
I wrote in the book Right Wing Revolution that there's something really, I think, disturbing about this. Oh, just go move to New York City and forget your hometown. No, no, no. You've actually laid down your roots, where you were born, where your parents are, where your ancestors are from, even though it's more difficult.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Even you could have probably earned more money if you would have moved to Yonkers with your kids. That is part of the MAGA creed in the best possible way. Like, no, I want to live where my parents are. I don't want to have to go through this kind of forced urbanization.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Talk about how you built the maple syrup business into a national brand, your family, and why your home is worth fighting for, not fleeing. That's right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
I couldn't be more behind Josh. If you decide to run or whatever process is up there. And I've known Josh for quite some time at the very core of what MAGA means. It should be this love and defend your home. Josh, you're welcome back anytime. Thanks so much. Talk to you soon. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. You just saw it. The privileged get tax pardons while hardworking Americans do not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
The IRS just stepped up enforcement. If you owe back taxes or have unfilled returns, do not wait for the IRS letter to act. Waiting to get caught makes you look like a tax evader and it will not end well. Getting ahead of this is the smart move, but never, never contact the IRS alone. Turn it over to Tax Network USA. Why? Because not all tax resolution companies are the same.
The Charlie Kirk Show

First, Tax Network USA has a strong relationship with the IRS. Second, they have a preferred direct line to the IRS. And why is that important to you?

The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
I want to finish the point that I was making earlier this hour. Who is standing in the way of Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy? Right now with Tulsi Gabbard, it's a little unclear. Looks like Todd Young is a little bit shaky from Indiana. Looks like Cassidy is okay for Tulsi, but Cassidy is putting up a problem with Bobby Kennedy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
John Curtis from Utah, and this will not be an I told you so segment, but boy, did we fight so hard to try to get Trent Staggs in Utah. If I could have just had another $20 million to deploy to get Trent Staggs to defeat John Curtis, we now have a Romney 2.0 in Utah. I went on the ground to help Trent Staggs. We campaigned in Utah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
We saw this freight train coming, and I certainly hope he ends up voting the right way. We don't know yet. We don't want to judge until the final votes are cast. Susan Collins, I've always defended Susan Collins on this program. In fact, to the great anger of many of you in this audience when I defend Susan Collins, my Susan Collins contention is this. She represents a very deep blue state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Without her, we would not have a Republican senator from Maine. And finally, she's almost always there when we need her. She was there when we needed her on Kavanaugh. We did not need her on Pete Hegseth. We did not. It was kind of a performative show vote. So it'll be very interesting to see, will Susan Collins be there when we need her on Tulsi or on Bobby Kennedy? I grade on a political curve.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
If you're from a deep blue state, I grade it differently than if you're from Louisiana or from South Dakota or from Mississippi. Now McConnell is just trying to do everything he possibly can to sabotage. McConnell is such a dishonest politician because for years he would always talk about how the conference needs to stay together.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
He would always talk about how the conference needs to vote together, about you shouldn't try to resist the conference or resist leadership. Now Mitch McConnell is resisting leadership. Mitch McConnell is actually voting differently than John Thune. What do you think about that? That just goes to show how a dishonest fraud that Mitch McConnell has become, has always been.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
That is tpusa.com. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Showing his true stripes. He is not going to be a senator beyond when he's up for election. I think he's up this next cycle in 2026. We're going to get somebody really good in Kentucky and put this situation to rest. He's already said he's not running. That's good. We got Bill Cassidy, which is a problem in Louisiana, with Bobby Kennedy. And I hope Bill Cassidy comes around.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Again, we don't want to get too aggressive until we kind of know the parameters of how these people are voting. But this shouldn't even be a close call. What exactly is your red flag? It says, oh, well, he might encourage vaccine hesitancy. No, no, no. The CDC did that on his own.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
In fact, you can make an argument that Bobby Kennedy will actually increase people's trust in our public health authorities.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
I will, honestly, if Bobby Kennedy comes out after lots of scientific trials and says these vaccines are legit, that would increase my trust in the public health institutions, not this current cartel of criminals and the cabal that's currently running our public health authority. Look, we don't want to have to fight Bill Cassidy if we don't want to.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
But if Bill Cassidy is truly running again, the man who voted to impeach and convict Donald Trump, if he wants to be a senator ever in his future, I certainly hope for his own sake he votes for Bobby Kennedy.

So, yeah, I mean, it's a very basic question. Again, I'm just a civilian. Whose idea was it to have the army do military exercises even remotely close to the airspace of Reagan? I mean, there's plenty of other places you could do army training theoretically, right? I mean, it's a big country, a lot of rural areas, not near Reagan Airport. Who made this decision and for what possible reason?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
And why did no one ever think in the months or the years leading up to this, hey, these near misses are probably a good reason to suspend these training exercises?
The Charlie Kirk Show

I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

So so I want to broaden this. You wrote the book that was that really addressed this unfit to fight how woke policies are destroying our military. And so I don't want to blame any sort of particulars on this incidence. But can you give us more examples on how these woke policies have weakened America's military preparedness?

You might remember I said for a while that you are not voting for Trump or Kamala Harris, that you were voting for 5,000 people that will staff your government.

You're voting for people that are going to go about and fulfill the mandate.

Yesterday, in real time, what we saw were three changemakers, three disruptors that are going to go into their respective agencies. and not do business as usual. We had Kash Patel, who's going to lead the FBI. Phenomenal selection. Bobby Kennedy for HHS to make America healthy again. Tulsi Gabbard to be the custodian of our nation's secrets. One, two, three.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Now what do all three of those people have in common? Tulsi, Bobby, Cash. They are hated by the legacy media. They are despised by entrenched and permanent Washington. Tulsi Gabbard is going to bring reform and transparency to the distrust that intel agencies that have been running coups and nonsensical operations against the American people.

Bobby Kennedy will bring trust and integrity back to our public health authority. Asking the question is, why is our childhood vaccination schedule 72 shots? Why is it that our kids are so obese and overweight? Why is that we are a sloppy and slovenly country? Should we really prescribe Ozembic to the entire country?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Why is that 50% of our kids are obese or overweight by the age of 15 and only 3% of Japanese kids are? Why can't we even ask these fundamental questions? And then Kash Patel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Kash Patel will turn the federal beer investigation into a bad guy catching operation, not a secret army or secret police of the regime to go after child sex traffickers, to go after predators, go after gun smugglers, to go after rapists, arsonists, not grandmas that went into the Capitol Rotunda with a pocket constitution to go pray.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Kash Patel, Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard is a one, two, three combo package to help us enter into the great American Renaissance and the golden era. Now they're receiving resistance from Republican senators, Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy in particular. And we're going to name those names of the people that are trying to get in the way. But let's just summarize some of the highlights yesterday.

Bobby Kennedy. had a second hearing articulating the grievous condition of America's health care. Play cut 134.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
The people who are against Bobby Kennedy are those that are purchased by Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and Eli Lilly. A healthy population is a threat to permanent Washington. A healthy population questions social distancing. A healthy population doesn't take an mRNA gene-altering vaccine just because they're told to take it. A healthy population is one that challenges tyranny.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Think about it. If you want to metamorphosize America into a third world socialist dictatorship where there's a permanent ruling class oligarchy that rules over your life, would you rather have fat people that are medicated, that aren't the best version of themselves, that don't question authority? Or do you want a population that is vital, full of life, spark, vigor,

We have a very special guest here to help us understand what exactly happened. Amber Smith, former helicopter pilot, author of Unfit to Fight, How Woke Policies Are Destroying the Military, and former senior Pentagon official to break down the breaking news. Amber, thank you for joining the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Which one would you rather have if you were a tyrant? If you're a tyrant, you want an unhappy population. You want a medicated population. You want a class of indentured servants, of fat, lazy people, because they're easier to control. Couple that with a third world invasion, and you have a recipe towards world domination via the United States of America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Potomac Crash, The Northern Border, and The Confirmation Battles
Bobby Kennedy is about making America happy again, healthy again, to get us back on a trajectory... where we have national readiness for our United States military to restore trust post-COVID. When I hear a doctor on TV, well, doctors say, I inherently am distrustful of such statements. Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi, and Cash must be confirmed by Republican senators. They must be put into office.

I'm going to want to have him on the program. He's a tough guy to nail down. He's phenomenal. And I love his online courses with Hillsdale College. One in particular that I rewatched and I took very special notes was all about progressivism.

and about the left. Dr. David Azarad from Hillsdale College understands the philosophy of the ideology of BLM and CRT. Joining us now is Dr. David Azarad, Associate Professor of Government for Hillsdale College in D.C. Dr. Azarad, great to see you.

The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
So, doctor, there's lots to talk about here, kind of piggybacking on what I just mentioned. I do want to ask the question, where do you think the left will head next? Where do you think the left will hit back as the right does its well-earned metaphorical victory laps? What can we expect from the progressives, the Marxists? What's coming next?
The Charlie Kirk Show

The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
So, Dr. Asparad, in your online course for Hillsdale College, you talk about how there is a almost a hierarchy to the beliefs. And you talk about how there is a quote from Nietzsche of which there every society has a central piety that essentially something you are not allowed to make fun of. Can you explain that to our audience? I thought that was a deeply profound point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
And how is that at all instructive to the current political moment that we're in?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
You see, the media wants you to believe that they're a menace to our nation, when in reality, it's the permanent federal bureaucracy that does nothing all day long at best and does active damage to our country at worst. They're passing rules and regulations that have no applicability to your life. They're the ones that were investigating President Trump.

So if you were to just give an analysis, do you think it's possible or likely that from a political standpoint, left-wing Democrats will be able to, let's just say, put the more radical elements of their party in a corner and run to the middle? How entrenched are what we would call woke, DEI, critical race theory? Is it possible? for moderation in this Democrat party?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
They're the ones that are going after small businesses. They're the ones that were going after moms and dads at school board meetings. And also there's just the unnecessary administrative bloat at the Department of Education and Health and Human Services. For example, at the Department of Health and Human Services, Bobby Kennedy has identified there are 100 communication departments. 100.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
I hope so. One of my concerns, President Trump is fighting hard. Why are red states still funding so many of these schools on the state level? For example, I'm going to Oklahoma State University next week. Riley Gaines with Turning Point USA is going to University of Oklahoma. Our students are getting assaulted in Norman, Oklahoma, on campus University of Oklahoma. They have DEI departments.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
They have transgender stuff. Oklahoma is the reddest state in the country. Every county voted for Trump. And yet the taxpayers of Oklahoma are still funding the University of Oklahoma. Quickly, David, help me understand that. What's that all about?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
Sports is a major, major problem. I. And I'm victim of it. I love college sports. I think it's amazing. It's entertaining. And yet when you're talking about defunding, we'll just take it for a second. In Mississippi, well, they're like, well, Ole Miss is in the Sweet 16. Why would I defund the school? Hold on.
The Charlie Kirk Show

He says, we should just have one. Consolidate it. We don't need 100 separate communication departments. And at every corner and every turn, as you work hard to write your checks by April 15th and tax days right around the corner, you send that money to Washington, D.C. and have it wasted with zero concern for fiscal prudence, for zero concern to try to balance the budget. And Elon Musk says,

We may never have this chance again to have this many capable people serving in our government to restore the constitutional intent with real kind of business expertise. Real wisdom.

The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
You could only be against this if you work for the government, are receiving graft from the federal government, or you're in on the entire cabal against the American people. This truly is the citizens versus the Leviathan. It is the citizens... versus the intractable federal bureaucracy. Elon Musk continues. Let's play cut three forty four at Social Security.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
You are the world's richest man and the greatest innovator maybe of the last 100 years, definitely of a generation. That is using his brainpower, his capacity, his fortune to go make sure that fraudsters are not able to steal Social Security checks. The Democrats in the media are lying. Oh, they want to cut Social Security. They're actually trying to save it for all of you that paid into it.

Stephen Davis, who I've had an opportunity to know, who is a super genius. This is a guy that could run any Fortune 100 company. He could run Amazon. He could run Salesforce. He could run Dropbox. He could run Alphabet. This guy is incredibly bright. And instead, the Democrats, they don't want to try to work in the middle to try and find common sense solutions. They have zero confidence.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
Zero interest in trying to deliver for the American people, because if you're going after the size of the federal government, you are going after the untouchable relic of the Democrat Party. They worship the state. They find meaning from the state. And this group of super geniuses, this group of men, they're not flashy. They're motivated by patriotism. And it's honestly inspiring.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
It means that we should fight even harder here in the grassroots. We should fight harder in the trenches. That we should do even more. Because they're out there. There is no reason they have to be doing this. It's not for money. It's not for fame or fortune. They have themselves doxxed. They have their families being targeted. They're all getting death threats. We're all getting death threats.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
The media is going after them relentlessly. Capitol Hill is trying to assail them. And it's all because they know that we are careening towards bankruptcy as a nation. If we do not cut spending significantly, find the waste, find the abuse, find the bloat, find the unconstitutional programs, we will reach a tipping point of no return. Play cut 352.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order last night.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
I'm going to tell you what it is. It is monumental. It is so desperately needed. It is a game changer that will allow Doge to do their work. And it goes right after the core of the federal bureaucracy. It goes right at how the federal bureaucracy is so untouchable. And it's all because of an executive order that was signed previously.

This is a beautiful, delicious ending to your week. And of course, the courts are going to try and stop it, but we'll win in the end. President Trump. is launching an effort that we're not even sure that he would attempt, and he deserves our credit and our praise.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
Late last night, President Trump signed an executive order to end collective bargaining and unionization with federal unions at many federal agencies, including the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Defense, the Department of Justice, the Department of State, the EPA, and USAID. Overall, this would revoke the right to unionize for 75% of currently unionized federal workers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
Now let me pause. President Trump, as you can see, is being very smart. He's not touching Border Patrol. He's not touching people that are in ICE, that are in front lines, that have union agreements, understandably, in case someone gets shot, similar to kind of police officer work. No, no, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
This is if you're a paper shuffler at the EPA, if you're a paper shuffler at the Department of Agriculture. The president has the power to do this. Federal law allows the president to override unionization rights for any federal agency involved in national security work. This is badly needed, badly. The entire concept of a public sector employee union is hugely damaging to the body politic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
In the private sector, unions can work at least in theory because workers and owners are in theory opposed to each other. It's a little nonsensical, but in theory. Workers want higher wages. Owners want lower wages. But they have to collaborate because if the business goes broke, everyone loses. But in a government union, this obviously does not apply.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
The government doesn't go bankrupt or go out of business. And on top of that, the CEO of the government is elected. So we get what we've seen in city after city and state after state. and in our federal government too. Lawmakers have gotten elected by pandering to the government workforce to make them higher pay and benefits in return for votes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
And it is a self-destructing bankruptcy, an inevitable bankruptcy destination cycle. If you look at the numbers today, the average federal employee is paid more than a private sector employee and has vastly more benefits. More time off, doing less work, no accountability, all paid for by you and your grandkids via our mounting national debt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
We have to end this if we want a federal government that actually works for the public instead of itself. Now, we know what happens next. This will be challenged in court by the unions themselves. We'll probably get a nationwide injunction against it. We'll probably have to go to the U.S. Supreme Court, and maybe they won't even hold it up at all.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
But this absolutely has to be a priority of the American right. America has been driven into the ground by a bunch of cartels. We've talked a lot about the college credential cartel. We've talked about the Sinaloa drug cartel. We know about the military industrial complex war cartel.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
But we have to make a priority of cutting down and cutting back and raising the expectations of the federal employee cartel. This goes right at the Democrat Party. The federal unionization practices. are a major built-in incumbency advantage for the Democrat Party. This is a shot across the bow against the administrative state.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
The Doge effort, the Department of Government Efficiency, is a once-in-a-century opportunity to restrain the size, the scope of the federal government. We have gone so far off the founders and the framers' original intent on what a constitutional purpose should be for our federal government. Elon Musk sat down yesterday with Brett Baier, with his team of super geniuses,
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
So now you have Doge, as we've been mentioning, finding waste, finding abuse, finding unnecessary positions, but we can't do anything about it if all the public sector unions are unionized, all the public sector workers are unionized. Do you know who is against public sector unions? FDR was even against public sector unions. He said it was a conflict of interest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The DOGE Super-Geniuses Speak Out
He said that the incentives work against one another. This started by executive order, and this can end by executive order. And we weren't even sure if President Trump was going to go there because this is a big move, a necessary one, a courageous one, a declarative one, and one that will restore fidelity to our federal government. that will restore responsibility for the U.S. taxpayers.

Really great people that were passionate about America and, of course, also the country of origin of Romania. It's always been a beautiful place. My wife's visited there. She's done a lot of work. But what's going on in Romania is of international significance that everyone here should care about. Canceled elections, people being detained for... differences of opinion, and so much more.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
To help us understand this is the former Prime Minister of Romania. He's a member of the Chamber of Deputies and also a candidate for a new term for the President of Romania, Victor Ponta. Mr. Prime Minister, thank you so much for joining the program and for making time for us today. Please take a second to introduce yourself and welcome to the program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
This is a symbol that we do have a certain tradition in this country, and we are going to protect and defend it. Did you know that English is an official language in India, Pakistan, and the Philippines, but not in America, but up until today it is? California is one of the most linguistically diverse states in the United States. It's estimated more than 200 languages are spoken on its territory.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So thank you for that. I know you're running for president again, which is of high consequence and also potential risk given all of the different factors. So let's just repeat what you said and further explain this. So Romania is part of NATO and part of now the Western democratic traditions. And I put that in air quotes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And it's supposed to be a country that would respect democracy and freedom of speech and the will of the people. I don't want to move on too quickly from what you said. There was a nullified presidential election. And what was the accusation and who was able to make that decision?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
One-fourth of the population was foreign-born. This is two times more than the rest of the United States, 10 million foreigners. And at some point, you become a colony, not a country. And if you want America to be a colony, just tell us that. A colony is where you could trade stuff, you could barter stuff. However, you have nothing in common with your fellow countrymen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So I have to stay on this for a second. So this sounds very similar to what happened in America in 2017 when they were criticizing President Trump for being a Russian agent. What was the supposed interference? Were they complaining about Facebook ads or TikTok or something on X? And you have a constitutional court that has the ability to nullify the will of the Romanian people?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And English is now the official language of the United States. Also, why should we care about Romania? Well, what's happening in Romania is scary. and dark and disturbing. Victor Panta, former prime minister of Romania and wants to be the next president of Romania, joins the show to explain and discuss canceled elections, people being detained for no reason, that and so much more. Email
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So let me just ask the fellow European countries that are defenders of democracy, that are relentlessly lecturing America and Romania about the need for elections and we can't have autocracy. Did Germany speak out against this? Did France speak out against this? Did Italy speak out against this? The fact that you guys were not able to have an election.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
What was the response from the the ruling class of the European elite when your election was nullified?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And language is fundamental to that. A nation is comprised... definitionally of three components, three ingredients. You must have borders or else you're not a nation. You must have unified language or else you're not a nation. And you must have shared culture or else you are not a nation. Borders, language, culture.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
All in the name of democracy, the Western governments who constantly are telling us that. that autocracy is growing, that for some reason we have to cancel elections. So I know that you're going to be running for president again. I want to get into that. But let me just ask a more broad and general question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Of course, Romania was in the Eastern Bloc for decades and lived under a form of totalitarianism, outsourced totalitarianism, and communism and Marxism. I know you're running for the presidency again and you were former prime minister.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Are you concerned that the country that you love, that you want to serve again, is becoming more like a Soviet top-down dictatorship than a Western liberal democracy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And I originally got that, by the way, from the great Michael Savage, just to be clear. I did not come up with that. But when I started listening to him back in 2010, 2011, he was always on borders, language, culture, borders, language, culture. And he's exactly right. A nation ceases to exist without strong unifying practices and principles.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So I want to continue on that, which is if you are elected prime minister again, how would you position yourself with the incoming Trump administration? Because the new German government seems to be saying we must decouple from the United States. You're running for president, not prime minister. I'm sorry. You're running for president. My apologies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And so if you are president, again, how would you position your country with the United States when it comes to not just international and geopolitical matters, but also ones of domestic concern? How should Romania and the United States work cooperatively?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Six years ago showed a study that there are more native Spanish speakers in the United States than in Spain. It's remarkable stuff. And we're going to say, no, English is the official language in the United States and official government documents. And if you still want to talk Spanish at home, that's not what this applies to. You could do obviously whatever you want, freedom of speech.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
During your premiership, the Romanian economy grew quite significantly. What was your proudest achievement when you were prime minister? And what would you have done differently, maybe in hindsight, from 2012 to 2015?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So thank you for mentioning that. Let's dive a little bit deeper if that's okay. George Soros is well known here in American circles for pumping billions of dollars into our communities, our neighborhoods, our district attorney races, trying to thwart the will of the people and trying to turn America into an open border country. no crime enforcement, weakened, disastrous country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
What specifically has George Soros and his foundation, Open Society Foundation, done in your country? And if you win the election, what would you do about it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
This instead applies to what will the U.S. government have as a standard? No more when you call DHS, it's going to be pressed to for Spanish. You got to learn English. And by the way, all of our, well, not mine, because my family's been around since 1620, but all of people that have immigrated to this country, assimilate.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Well, I am thrilled to hear that. So what anything else you want our audience to be aware of about why you are running and the stakes and who is your opposition? What is the contrasting political party? What are they advocating for? It kind of educate our audience that the separate visions that are being presented to the Romanian people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
If you do not assimilate to the land that you come to, then you don't have a nation. Assimilate through culture and through, most importantly, language. Learn English. to become an American. It's a fundamental American practice, tradition and value. So I was on campus yesterday when a lot of this Epstein situation was unfolding. I'm very well read into some things happening in the White House.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
I love it. Let me just play a couple pieces of tape here. And I would love to get your reaction. Let's go to cut 209, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Very good to have you on the program, sir. Thank you for all of your time. I would love to visit Romania. However, I will say this. As a Westerner, I don't know, under current leadership, if I were to come to Romania, I might be arrested under the direction that it's going.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So we need you to win the presidency or whomever, whatever party, and then I would imagine I would be welcome in your country. Is that correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
We'll be watching very closely and hopefully you'll be able to restrain the Soros influence and return to a free society. Thank you so much and best of luck. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
This one, complete outsider. From what I understand, a lot of my friends were invited as influencers to some sort of an influencer gathering.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
at the white house about meeting jd and meeting caroline levitt they were given binders about some of the epstein documents but apparently all the epstein documents that they were given were documents that were already made public and so went totally viral the camera op was not scheduled it seems as if that the press was there to seek here star starmer
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
The Epstein files, which we need to see, it is mandatory that we, the American people, see the Epstein files. We have been told they're coming. We've been told that the Epstein client list is on the desk. We need to see every single Epstein document non-redacted. No more redactions. We need to see every single Epstein document. The SDNY, FBI field office, is obviously stonewalling.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
That should be sorted out as of today. And we'll look for Pam Bondi, who I really like and really respect, to give updates. But look, rather than being cynical, this is all proof that this administration wants to get the information out. But there are other open questions about what documents there even are on Epstein and what have been destroyed. And that's the other thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
I bet there's been a lot of destruction of documents. Are we going to learn about people like Les Wexner? We don't know. Are we going to learn about people like Reid Hoffman? We don't know. Bondi is giving Kash Patel 14 days to get to the bottom of this, and I bet they're just shredding documents. I don't want to be too cynical, but I bet there's a lot of destruction of documents right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And allow me to please prove that to you. Remember when Lois Lerner did the IRS targeting scandal against conservatives and she lost the emails and she lost the emails? Do you remember during the Mueller investigation? During the Mueller investigation, when the Mueller team intentionally inputted wrong passwords on their phones so many times that it triggered an automatic phone wipe?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?

The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Whoops, broke my phone, thus triggering a complete deletion of all the text messages and communications on the Mueller team. They should have been imprisoned just for that, the Mueller team. I want you to understand what the Mueller team did. They went through their phone.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
So if you enter your wrong password enough times, like 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, wrong password, eventually it will wipe your phone. And the entire team did that. That is flagrant obstruction of justice, and none of them were held accountable. But of course, the most obvious was Hillary Clinton's bleach bit of emails.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
The deep state operation, they're deleting Epstein files almost certainly as we speak. Look, I trust Kash Patel with my life. I trust Pam Bondi. I trust every single one of these people. And it's going, I guarantee you right now, there is this major head-on collision happening. And there you see a lot of my friends. There's Liz Wheeler, who's great. There's Scott Pressler. There's Rogan O'Hanley.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And it says on the binders, the Epstein files, which is technically true. However, a lot of these files, almost all of them were already out previously. And look, more will come, I hope. And we want transparency. In fact, we demand transparency. And we've been told that the Epstein client list is right there on the desk. So we need to see it. The expectation has been set very, very high here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And the letter is, Dear Director Patel, before you came into office, I requested the full and complete files related to Epstein. By 8 p.m., 8 a.m. tomorrow, the FBI will deliver the full and complete Epstein files to our office. Guys, we just got to get these out. I'm going to be very honest. You just got to get them all out. No more filter. We don't care.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And just to be clear, a lot of all these friends that were there, Jack and Rogan, they thought they were receiving actual Epstein files. These are stuff that we've known for three years. There's nothing new in these. And Mike Cernovich was there, great American. All of them are great. They're all my friends. I mean, they're phenomenal, every single one of them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
And there's a very easy way to make this right. Every single document needs to be made public. No redactions, no names removed, every single document. Just put it out there. Full transparency. Just publish them on a DOJ website, allow the internet to go ablaze, let things happen. There's over 250 victims, they say. And by the way, Trump signed an executive order ordering this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Trump, this is all under the guys that Trump said this. He signed the executive order. And so yesterday, again, I was on campus. I had a huge donor event last night. People were texting me. I was getting calls about Epstein. I said, what are you talking about Epstein and all this stuff? Meanwhile, Jack's taking selfies with binders. And we got people. I was like, oh, people all over the place.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
A very confusing news day for me. I was putting out fires. I was raising money, and people are calling me like, why are they doing selfies? And I said, there was an influencer meeting? I had no idea. All I know is this, is that we deserve, we were promised every single Epstein file with no redactions, and I hope we get it. Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
There's a lot of excitement in Washington, D.C. as we start the year. But I wanted to talk to you about something just as exciting happening outside the D.C. Beltway, a revolution in the states. It's the education freedom movement. It's real. It's growing and growing because some states, as they should, are putting parents in charge of the education of their kids.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Everyone knows education has the power to change a kid's life, and anyone who raised a child knows each has different needs, learning styles, and God-given talents. The fact is parents know their own children best, knows what's best for their development and future. Education freedom legislation puts parents, not zip codes and politicians in charge of these important family decisions.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
It's why I strongly support making universal education freedom a reality for every parent in every state.

The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.

You being a Californian, what would you say, an average nonpolitical Californian, if they had an opportunity to challenge Gavin Newsom in an unfiltered way, what would they say? What would they complain about? What would they question?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A National Language, Debating Newsom, Wisconsin, and... Romania?!?
Quickly, he's probably going to run to the middle and position himself more as a moderate. I'm just kind of inferring based on that trailer. Do you think something like that could end up being successful? 30 seconds.

There's a lot happening here in the Imperial Capitol, the first of which is it is March for Life Day. March for Life brings in, you could say, hundreds of thousands of people from across the country to march for the unborn, to march for the most vulnerable. Now, for years, Republican politicians have been very skittish to engage on the issue of life.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
So much to discuss, but first I want to make sure that we discuss your new film coming out, which will premiere on PBS on January 14th at 10 p.m. Eastern. I want to play the trailer and then get some of your remarks on it. Play cut 191, please.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Mr. Speaker, tell us about this project.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
I love the premise and what a applicable segue to what we are now seeing and living through. I want to get into the deportations and of President Trump, what he's doing immigration wise. But, Mr. Speaker, I have to get your historical analysis first. Let's just take an even greater step back and look more macro.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
On Monday, President Donald Trump took the oath of office in the Capitol Rotunda in the most triumphant political comeback in American history. Put this into words in a historical context of what we, the American people, are living through and what President Donald Trump accomplished this week.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
As you know, in this program, we are 100 percent pro-life and fight for the unborn, not just on this program, but on college campuses, the most difficult place to advance such values and such a worldview. For years, Republican politicians have talked a good game when it comes to abortion and pro-life, but they rarely ever did anything.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Mr. Speaker, I agree with all of that. I want to get your take on the lack of something. I expected more resistance. President Donald Trump signed an executive order challenging birthright citizenship. If he would have done that back in 2017, he would have been met with 500,000 protesters in Washington the next day. President Donald Trump freed the January 6 prisoners, all of them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
And all we got were a bunch of whiners on cable TV. Where is the rank and file? Where is the infantry resistance of the American left? Are they in hibernation or have they been eliminated?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
They really rarely ever made any policy decisions that were consequential in the fight for life. George W. Bush never even spoke at the March for Life. George W. Bush put people that were sympathetic with a pro-abortion agenda on the U.S. Supreme Court, such as John Roberts. Donald Trump changed all of that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
I think that is extremely wise. And President Trump does have a Washington like quality where Washington was larger than life. He would march straight into battle, as you well know, be shot at and even shot. And there was almost a an aura around him that made him powerful. largely culturally and politically invincible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
You said something, though, that historians would scoff at in prior years, and now they're maybe reconsidering. You said he is attempting or on pace to be on in the same sentence as Washington and Lincoln. Please make that case.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
I think that's exactly right. And he looks as if he has a centeredness. that I don't want to say it was lacking in the first term, but it is deepened and strengthened. He feels present, ready, in total command and control of every room that he comes into. There's almost nothing that can surprise you once you've been shot, literally.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
At that point, what bad news article are they going to write about you? He's faced 700 years in federal prison. They tried to take his business empire away from him. And that word duty has been lost in American political virtue for quite some time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
And the media deep down almost knows that not only they've lost, but he kind of won in such a way that no matter how much they complain, they can't possibly stop him at this point, unless there's legislative issues, which we're going to talk about. Mr. Speaker, please plug the film one more time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
As you know, Donald Trump was responsible for the reversal of Roe versus Wade and even owned it throughout the campaign. Now, President Trump was not nearly as pro-life as some of you in this audience would have liked in some of his public statements. But in his actions, President Donald Trump is and will be remembered as the most pro-life president in American history. The most pro-life president.

The last time the Bills in a playoff went to the Kansas City Chiefs, if I'm not mistaken, was in 2022, was in that very famous playoff game. very famous playoff game where Josh Allen tied it and went to overtime.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
And look, to be perfectly honest, the vast majority of the country is not where I am on the issue of pro-life or abortion. Totally understand that. Totally get that. All the more reason for the March for Life. All the more reason to go march in the streets and to build up public support.

Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Thank you for those kind words, Mr. Speaker. My inclination has been for two bills, but can you convince our audience otherwise? I'm not against one. I mean, I'm far from a legislative expert. Why do you think one bill would be the best solution?

Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President

Yesterday began a series of executive actions and pardons by President Donald Trump to show his support for the pro-life community, to show his commitment to delivering for pro-life patriots and people that have been wrongly scrutinized and criminalized. There is this law that never should have existed. It is anti-First Amendment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
and it was used intentionally by the Biden regime to go after faithful Christians who would pray outside of abortion clinics. It is called the FACE Act, the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act. Now, even if you are somewhat pro-abortion or okay with abortion, you should be 100% against the FACE Act. The FACE Act basically carves out
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
a unconstitutional island in America where people who want to say prayers outside of abortion clinics protected by the First Amendment are not allowed to do so. Meanwhile, if you want to protest, which is illegal, outside of a Supreme Court justice's home, the Department of Justice will not come after you. So the FACE Act was rarely ever used.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
It says if you use physical force or threaten physical force to intentionally injure, intimidate, interfere with someone trying to get an abortion, okay, I get that, but that's not what actually ended up happening. The third one was that interfere by exercising their First Amendment right of religious freedom at a place of religious worship.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
According to some anecdotal evidence from pro-life groups, the presence of people praying outside an abortion clinic can lead to a noticeable decrease in the number of abortions, with some claiming a drop of up to 28% in certain situations. It has been a long-standing tradition for Christians to pray outside of abortion clinics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
The FACE Act makes it a federal crime to do a left-wing style protest in exactly one place, an abortion clinic. Now, President Donald Trump was presented with these pro-life warriors who were targeted by the Biden regime for exercising their First Amendment rights. And to be clear, these people are on public property. This is a legitimate and legal protest. They're not blocking the door.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
They're not doing anything of that sort of circumstance. The FACE Act says you are not allowed to even voice your opinion in the proximity of an abortion clinic. For praying. President Donald Trump saw this, weighed all of... the options and issued full pardons for these pro-life warriors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Calvin Zastrow, Heather Adoni, Bevelyn Williams, Paulette Harlow, Joan Bell, Jean Marshall, Herb Garrity, Jonathan Darnell, John Hinshaw, and Lauren Handy. Now, one in particular, Bevelyn Williams, is this amazing pro-life warrior who was released from prison. A black woman who loves her family, loves her country, who was put in federal prison.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Does this look like the type of person who should be in federal prison? Watch this. It's cut 169. And to be clear, none of these people did any acts of violence. Bevelyn Williams did not do any acts of violence. She did not burn down a Wendy's. She did not do any massive BLM-type protest. But she got the most severe penalties imaginable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
And President Donald Trump, in a courageous action, stands with the pro-life faithful in this country. She was a political prisoner because if you dare do anything outside of an abortion clinic, that is left-wing blasphemy. It is against the national state-run religion of the Democrat Party. She was going to be stripped from her loving child and husband for nearly four years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
And President Donald Trump deserves all the credit for this. I did what I could to try to vouch and push for this, but President Trump got lots of phone calls and lots of people, including many senators, like Senator Josh Hawley, and he delivered. Now let me make a message to any pro-life warrior out there. That might not have voted for Donald Trump. That might not have worked for Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
And there are lots of them out there. Some pro-lifers decided to say, I'm not going to get involved. I'm not going to do anything to help Trump. He's not as pro-life as I would like him to be. He's not as pro-life as I am. Well, now you can see the results. of being able to have political power.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
On one side right now, you have abortion-on-demand websites being taken down on Health and Human Services. You have pro-life warriors that are being pardoned, and more pro-life victories coming, by the way. I don't want to leak any information, but more pro-life victories coming. On the other side, you would have Kamala Harris, who would definitely not pardon these people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
They would be in jail forever. You would have more pro-life warriors and more pastors being put in jail. It really was a binary. But let this be a learning lesson for any of some of the self-righteous activists who refuse to do anything to lift a finger for President Trump. Not only were you wrong, you were actively helping the enemy. And some people say, oh, I was just honoring God.

President Donald Trump is on his way to go visit the terrible damage in North Carolina and then California. For those of you that are news junkies that watch here on The Charlie Kirk Show, the pace... is hard to keep up. And yesterday, President Donald Trump, oh, just happened to do another thing that would be the number one news story on the planet. He declassified all the MLK and JFK files.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Oh, sorry, forgot to mention that. Not to mention signed other executive orders. Now, I want to spend some time on this because, first of all, Kalen Doerr, who is a good friend, is like the White House digital director. Have you seen how beautiful the White House website looks? It's very good. I sent some very strong messages asking why their website looks better than ours. It's beautiful.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
It's very clean. Andrew might be getting some of those messages, but not yet. I'm kidding. I love this website. And so what you can do on whitehouse.gov is actually read all of the executive orders. And there are some amazing executive orders that kind of slipped through the cracks that people did not cover the first or second day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
So I want to go through some of these because they're just amazing. So we know about restoring a freedom of speech. We know about the national emergency on energy. But let me kind of go through some of these. So President Donald Trump, on his first day in office, out of all the things that is going on, he signs an executive order that is this, putting people over fish.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
stopping radical environmentalism to provide water to Southern California. Can we put this up on screen? I'm going to send this in the group chat. This one got no play.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
The name of the executive order that will be in the archives 1,000 years from now, when historians are studying the United States of America, they're going to go through the presidential executive orders, and there will be an executive order that says putting people over fish. putting people over fish, stopping radical environmentalism to provide water to Southern California.

And it's a very good executive order that says no more Delta smelt. This is great.

President Donald Trump continued his executive order spree. This is one of my other favorites on day one. Promoting beautiful federal civic architecture. This one got no play at all. No play. Everyone was talking about birthright citizenship or January 6th. And this one is very profound. You can tell a lot about a society based on the type of buildings that you erect.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
As you drive around this town, Washington, D.C., and you look at the Department of Energy or the Department of Education, they are indecipherable aesthetically from a federal prison. They are the most ugly buildings. And it's almost as if the building takes on the form of the meaning of the department. Everything is very bureaucratic. Everything is very linear.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
There is no ascension towards the divine. Now, I'm far from an expert in civic architecture, but I know two very basic rules. You try to have structures that point up towards the divine, and the circle is the perfect shape because there is no start and there is no finish. Is that the Department of Education? Is that not the most ugly thing you've ever seen? Oh, that's the FBI.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Is that not the most ugly thing you've ever seen? And by the way, that's not even the ugliest in Washington, D.C. It looks like a file cabinet. And in fact, the reason it looks like a file cabinet is actually of great significance and meaning. Because a file cabinet is kind of like a bureaucracy. And remember, bureaucrat comes from the French word, which means desk worker.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Donald Trump, the Greatest Pro-Life President
Look at this beautiful feat of architecture. Let's go to 196. Okay, I can do that. I mean, that's pathetic. That's the Department of Education. President Donald Trump's executive order says, no, we're going to have marble. We're going to have traditional architecture, not this garbage. Promoting beautiful federal civic architecture, one of my favorite executive orders from President Trump.

With President Trump making massive strides in his first month in office, alone to deliver on campaign promises to make America great again, it's clear his administration is committed to driving down costs and unleashing prosperity across our country. But Big Pharma is standing in the way. They've raised prices on over 575.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Brand name drugs in January alone blocked competition and spent millions pushing overpriced meds on hardworking Americans. Now they're pressuring Congress to implement mandates that will undermine the one real check against drug companies and ban the very market based incentives that help employers and families save on prescriptions and health care costs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Even worse, Big Pharma wants to strip American employers of the freedom to choose health benefits that work best for them. Their proposals could hand Big Pharma a $32 billion money grab at the expense of American employers and families. Conservatives for lower health care costs warns that Big Pharma isn't on our side.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
They fought against solutions to lower drug prices during Trump's first term election. oppose Bobby Kennedy's nomination to HHS to make America healthy again, and now they want even more government control over the private health care market, interfering with President Trump's promise to cut prescription drug costs. Big Pharma is no friend of the American people.

Senator, what do you make of this rise of left-wing terrorism targeted at Tesla and Elon Musk? My fear, Senator, and I hope I'm wrong, and let's stay in prayer that I'm wrong, that someone is going to get shot the same way that Steve Scalise got shot and, God forbid, killed. The left is creating a pressure cooker with so many of their rank-and-file paramilitary troops
The Charlie Kirk Show

that very well might result in one of us getting shot or killed. God forbid that happens. We're getting death threats every single day here on The Charlie Kirk Show. Senator Mike Lee, your thoughts.

It's not easy reading. It is very, very well written and thoughtfully put together. It is a novel. There is plenty of things that are goofy about the book, the overindulgence in the material and the flesh, the lack of a belief in the eternal and the divine, the worship of... let's just say immediate gratification.

We have a piece of tape here, I believe, in our library. I'm trying to find it. Jimmy Kimmel, who's supposed to be a funny man, he read on his script, you know, stop burning Teslas, but obviously did it as a joke and did it as a way to try to, of course, encourage his audience to burn more Teslas as he did it with a little bit of a smirk. I'm trying to find the piece of tape here.

And yet Disney is not going to have a single advertiser drop, not a single advertiser. So, you know, I don't know, that might go a little bit too far. Let's continue here. This is Tim Waltz, a sitting governor of a state, cheering on the downfall of an American manufacturing public company. Tim Walz is cheering for people to lose their jobs. These people are arsonists.

However, despite the fact that we do not agree with all of her views, she was an atheist after all, and a much more libertarian fundamentalist than we are. She was a supremely gifted writer and understood the left-wing mind better than almost any other author of the last 100 years.

Senator, the the approach from the left seems to be all out maximalist cultural terrorism intimidation. Are any of your colleagues on the Senate? I mean, you guys have good relationships with Dems. What what are they saying when you confront them in the hall? Like, hey, can you speak out against this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
So I now want your thoughts here, Senator, on the nationwide injunction crisis. Is there anything Congress will do to slow down this disturbing trend?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
In the book Atlas Shrugged, it's a dystopian novel, and it paints a picture of what happens when a government is built on envy and resentment and collectivism. In the book Atlas Shrugged, it talks about what happens when there's burdensome laws and regulations and when you're able to find a singular person that you can pin all of your problems against.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
So in closing here, Senator, it seems as if that this new pattern of nationwide injunctions is the norm, not the exception. The Supreme Court has to meet and they have to try to reconcile this issue. for the good of the country and the republic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
I suppose the question I have here is, as someone yourself who really cares about the law and the application of it, at what point do you think it's ever appropriate for President Trump to ignore a district court decision if it involved foreign policy? Is there ever a threshold where that must happen if the injunctions continue out of control?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Senator, thank you so much for your leadership. I hope we can rein in this black robe tyranny that we are living under. Thanks so much.

I need to now play this piece of tape from the data guy, Steve Kornacki at MSNBC, where he's analyzing the only group that is supporting DEI. The only group is white women with college degrees. I do not know how to solve this problem.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
I am open to suggestions. But white women with college degrees are so infected. I also bet they tend to be a little bit more secular. a little less serious about their faith. It can take time. Many people have come around, but the data is the data. You have to look at this. It is chilling stuff. And I always wonder, where are they getting their news and information from? It's not CNN.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
The best characters in Rand's books are actually the villains. They are the perfect image of left-wing bureaucrats, academics, and parasites. People who can't build, but they try to gain mastery over those who do. In the book Atlas Shrugged, there is a quiet character who really does not emerge up until about two-thirds of the way through. And that is a guy by the name of John Galt.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Their ratings aren't high enough. Maybe it's eat, pray, love type podcasting. Maybe they're watching Love is Blind. Maybe that's where they get their information from. Like Daisy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
The emphasis should be on the college degree. Now, interestingly, college degrees don't infect college young men or men as much as young women. White college indoctrinated women will ruin America if we let them. They are brainwashed. They are completely indoctrinated. I see it every single day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
And again, the worldview that is being uploaded to young women on a daily basis is hyper narcissistic, hyper selfish. I am the only one that matters. Who are you to tell me how I should act? And it makes them miserable. Women are norms enforcers. It's biology. Women are not technically or traditionally very strong individually.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
They are more likely to follow societal norms and customs and narratives. And the ones we have are poisonous. Let me say that again. Women are less likely to defy authority. They're less likely to challenge authority. They're more likely to wear the mask and get nine booster shots. And so when societal norms are terrible, they follow them and they follow the crowd. That is what women do.

Thankfully, though, broadly, the country thinks poorly of the Democrat Party. A death blow clip. Cut to 10, Steve Kornacki.

Building a political party around toxic femininity and shrill hall monitor enforcement turns out to be broadly very unpopular with the American people. The Democrat Party seems uninterested in adjusting itself, uninterested in. modernizing. Here's Jamal Bowman, 356.

Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
John Galt was an innovator. He's a builder. He did stuff. A risk taker. John Galt used his reason. He was non-ideological. He was a threat to the regime. John Galt famously gave his Galt's Galt speech, which goes on for like 55 pages, which really is Ayn Rand's personal philosophy. We have our own John Galt right now in America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Let me just doesn't have a fire alarm to go pull. And I think I heard a smoke detector. You see, Jamal Bowman is the worst of all of the Democrats. He is not very bright, incredibly hostile and aggressive. And that's who they want to build their party around. That incompetent Nazi, as you'd put it, Jamal Bowman, just rescued astronauts. What have you ever built in your life?

someone who was once celebrated by pop culture, someone who was once celebrated by mass media. And what Ayn Rand beautifully was able to put together in Atlas Shrugged is how a society turns on its innovators. Elon Musk was once admired broadly, especially by progressives, for his work with Tesla and SolarCity.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Elon Musk was heralded as the innovator that will bring forward great new accomplishments. The future will be delivered by people like Elon Musk. But Musk's trajectory is eerily similar to that of John Galt in many ways. He went from an innovator to an enemy. Just like John Galt, Musk, of course, was wildly heralded.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
But when his ideals began clashing with collectivist or progressive expectations, that admiration turned into animosity. Elon Musk figured out how to build in California. He is a genius. Elon Musk went and rescued those two astronauts this week. And did you notice the media barely even whispered a mention or a thank you? Elon Musk saved lives. He is...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
the super genius of our time, from driverless cars to artificial intelligence to Neuralink to the boring company to SpaceX. And I will go to college campuses and I will have these kids who hate Elon Musk, who have never paid rent, let alone built a company, have the audacity and the brazen attitude to attack Elon. And this is the kicker, everybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
is that you are seeing the beginnings of a left-wing communist movement that is beginning to bubble up and get to the surface. Now, we're a long way away from any elections, but never underestimate a political movement built on envy. Envy, jealousy, was responsible for the first murder of the Bible when Cain killed Abel. God liked one sacrifice better than another. Boom. Envy. Murder. Envy.

Wanting something. That's why David sent Uriah to the front lines. Boom. I want a Bathsheba.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
He drew a crowd between 13,000 to 15,000 people. Now, of course, it's on a college campus. It's fun to now be resistant against Trump. It's all of that. We're a ways out from an election. Does it bother me or worry me? No, but it certainly draws my attention. Oh, is that AOC in the mom jeans now? Can't quite see that. But no, get the whole crowd. It's worthy of recognition.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
It's worthy of noticing. Because what is Bernie Sanders' main argument? I am going to take from the innovator. I am going to take from the producer. I am going to steal from Elon Musk. And what has Bernie Sanders ever built? It's a pretty sizable crowd. There you go, on screen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
What we are seeing is the beginning of the tension of what Ayn Rand predicted because she understood the psychology of resentment, envy, and greed. And Elon Musk is not greedy whatsoever. He's the one dedicating his time and his treasure back to the country. But if you want to know where the left is going next, this is a little bit of an indicator, a little bit of a harbinger of things to come.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
And what is the Democrat strategy for elections this year? It's not Trump, Trump, Trump. It's Musk, Musk, Musk. Because Elon Musk allows them an opportunity to make an argument that Trump did not. It's all about fighting the oligarchy, Bernie Sanders says. It doesn't matter what the race is. It doesn't matter where they are.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
They think that they're going to be able to position themselves as we need to go after the productive. And everybody, that will be the downfall of civilization. Now, I don't want to make, you know, too hyperbolic language. We control the White House. They do not. We control the Senate. We control the House. I think everything's just going to be fine.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
But you must always keep your eyes on the horizon of what is coming next. And that, my friends, is a very serious crap. That did not just come out ex nihilo, though. If the Democrats would have been smart in 2024, that's the election they would have run. But instead, they ran Kamala Harris, and we thank them greatly for that contribution to the Republicans.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
The Democrat base and the Democrat party is going to be one that will be based on the message of we're going to take from the person who lands rockets from space. We're going to take from the person who rescues the astronauts. We are going to take from the people that make the world spin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
And in the book Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand spoke about how society was falling apart without the innovator, without the entrepreneur. These are the risk takers, the pioneers, and the innovators. And if you are suffering out there right now, let me tell you, you are not suffering just because Elon Musk is wealthy. This is pure spite that is driving the American left.

The Bolsheviks have never created anything except a long list of complaints and narratives of how they're victims for no good reason. Gold is real money. Unlike paper currency, gold's value doesn't disappear with inflation, reckless government spending, or market crashes. Now Noble Gold Investments makes it easy for you to claim your share.

That's noblegoldinvestments.com. The world is turning to gold. Shouldn't you be looking into doing that too? A remarkable new study is out that shows that 20-year-old white men are more right-wing than 75-year-old white men. And I've been saying this on this program for quite some time. Now I know I'm about to get a bunch of angry emails from folks that are 75-year-old white men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
No, I'm just as conservative. You are the exception, not the rule. But I completely believe this. And it doesn't include the audience. But of course this is true. And by the way, this at all, it shouldn't make you angry. This should actually make you very happy. This is actually a phenomenal sign of hope for you. 20 year old white men are more right wing than 75 year old white men.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
And traditionally, the idea is the Republican Party is just a bunch of old white men. Well, now it's the Republican Party is young and old white men and blacks and Hispanics. The one demographic, however, that is a big, big, big issue. is college-educated women. It's a major problem. Beyond anything that is really easy to explain on this program. I do want to play the Steve Kornacki clip.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
However, Andrew's right. This is a great example. Now, I'm very pro-life. You know that. And you don't have to even agree with my abortion stances in this clip. But what is important is to look into the mentality and into the window of the tenacity of your average left-leaning, liberal, Democrat activist on campus. So this is 289.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
By the way, this clip is going very bonkers from the University of Tennessee. This right here is the divide in America, not even about abortion. The topic is abortion, but just look at how she processes information. Before I play the piece of tape, let me prove this point further. In male self-help books, you will find words such as must and ought and should.

Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
In male self-help books, it tells men that you need to go do something and you ought to go act. Get off your tail and be better. In women self-help books, it is you deserve. You should get. The Western women, the Western female self-help worldview says is incredibly narcissistic. It's incredibly self-centered. It's not about duty or obligation. This is the furthest extrapolation of feminism.

You take responsibility for your orgasms and stop eliminating people smaller than you. So you're saying I should carry a baby and ruin my collegiate life. How about this? Instead of saying ruin, first of all, babies are a blessing. Stop talking at them as if there's some sort of annoyance. I will have to drop out of college.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Number two, number two, if you play certain games, you win certain prizes. If you're going to go have sex. So you're saying I should drop out of college to support my child. I'm supporting my life. I'm saying if you're going to engage in coitus, in the practice of having children, you might end up with a baby. So know that. And guess what? You don't need to have sex before you get married.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
It's not like showering. It's not like eating. Are you married? Yes, with two beautiful children. Wow, good for you. I could tell you're not married. Yeah. Why are young men gravitating towards conservatism? Because it's about responsibility, about order, about duty, about reason. Why are young women gravitating towards the Democrat Party? Because many of them are like her. What do you mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
Are you going to tell me that I might have to drop out of college? Essentially, I don't want to take any responsibility for my actions. And again, it's not even about the abortion thing. It's actually much more psychologically interesting and deeper than that. That's just a manifestation of a deeper political problem. which is that I don't want to have to grow up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
I want to remain in charge of everything all the time and do what feels good, not what I ought to do. You see, men are gravitating towards this idea of duty. Young ladies are gravitating towards this idea of license and licentiousness. And in that video, I sensed emptiness in her, and I do have compassion for her.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Elon Musk: Public Enemy #1
And that is why young women increasingly are incredibly suicidal, incredibly depressed, incredibly drug addicted, far more likely to be on antidepressants because that leads you into a very sad, vacuous existence. And that's what liberalism does. Liberalism at its furthest extrapolation is a cultural suicide cult.

Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Before we welcome our next guest, I just want to riff a little bit on this. Yesterday, we got the great news that Mitch McConnell is not running for reelection. Not a huge surprise. Mitch McConnell has announced he will not be seeking reelection in 2026. Cash is in, Mitch is out. Now, when politicians die or leave the national stage, now that's a time to be charitable. So we'll concede this point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Mitch McConnell blocking Merrick Garland was a great deed. We got to be honest. It was the best thing he ever did. It possibly got Donald Trump elected. And can you imagine Garland, the guy who just did four years of lawfare for Biden on the Supreme Court for life? It would have been unimaginably awful. Blocking that nomination was McConnell's doing, and we're grateful for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Well, we got that out of the way. Everything else has been a pile of garbage ever since. In his last act, he has now voted against Bobby Kennedy for HHS secretary, against Tulsi Gabbard, against Pete Hegseth. Mitch McConnell has been a cheerleader for the endless stream of money in the Russian-Ukrainian war. He's the old breed of maximal interventionism.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
He wanted forever war in Afghanistan, forever war in Iraq, unlimited money for Zelensky in Ukraine. He's a man trapped in the past, trapped in a time when American wealth and power seemed unlimited.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
But that era is past, and it thanks to men like Mitch McConnell who threw our strength away on useless conflicts that hurt the country on behalf of foreign oligarchs and a narrow cabal in Washington, D.C. It was Republicans like Mitch McConnell who spent decades talking a big game about securing the border
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
but never actually did anything about it, unless it was a chance to do a backdoor amnesty for millions of illegals. It was Republicans like McConnell who let DEI rot slowly, destroy a military, until it lost wars to the Taliban and Houthi rebels. It was Republicans like McConnell who sat around while a manufacturing base was re-domiciled away to China.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
So we should ask ourselves, what has the reign of Mitch McConnell been like for the people of Kentucky? Well, it's not good. And joining us now is someone who might be running for the U.S. Senate. He's getting a lot of attention and a lot of chatter. I like what I'm seeing. I like a lot of it. And that is the chairman of Morris Industries and possible candidate for U.S.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Senate in Kentucky, Nate Morris. Nate, great to meet you here on the program. Please introduce yourself to our audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Look at those crowds there before we get into the urgent breaking news here. This is an off-election year. There is no call to action of, you know, go vote for this. And the energy is greater today than it was on Election Day. It was confirmation that the next generation is truly leading the charge of this great realignment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
So let's kind of talk more about the McConnell mafia. You have spared no punch. You've basically pulled no punches. and McConnell has run Kentucky for multiple decades. How will you be profoundly different than what the McConnell-Hunta has done to Kentucky?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
What are the top issues that you think are facing the people of Kentucky that the prior leadership oligarchy has not been addressing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
So I want to I want to talk more. Let's actually play cut to a message that you gave at CPAC. Let's play cut to 80.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
And Kentucky is one of the reddest states in the country, is it not?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
As we have mentioned, Gen Z is the most favorable pro-Trump generation other than Gen X. And as we've mentioned, baby boomers are increasingly becoming more Democrat. Young people are moving to the right. Young people are moving towards traditional, conservative, common sense American values.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
So, yeah, I mean, there's Andy Barr, who actually called me over the weekend, and he wants to talk. I don't know him very well. I know that he lost his wife tragically, and that was terrible a couple years ago. Yes. And then Daniel Cameron, who I've only met once or twice. Just educate our audience, because this is a very important thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
We don't want another member of the McConnell mafia going to the Senate. I have nothing negative to say about either one of these guys. Andy, I'll call back, I guess. So tell me more, like, what exactly do these people stand for and what is disturbing about it? And so just educate the audience on the significance of the seat.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
That is well said. Closing thoughts here, Nate. I mean, you're an outsider. You're thinking about getting into this race and understand the significance of it. The people of Kentucky are some of the greatest. I had an aunt there. She actually just passed away a couple weeks ago. It was terrible. I actually was in Louisville a couple weeks ago. I love the people of Kentucky.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
They're wonderful patriots. I think they deserve better. I think they deserve better than a warmongering, sending money overseas, open border, performative Republican. And instead, they want a true fighter. Just talk more about what you're weighing. And I mean, you've built a really incredible business and this would be a serious life change for you, would it not?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Nate, can't wait to see what you do. It is time for the McConnell era to end. And you seem like a great guy. Let us know what happens. And we will not tolerate a McConnell disciple, a member of that mafia, to be the U.S. senator. We won't put up with that. Thanks so much, Nate. Thank you, Charlie. Look, this is very important, guys. This is the end of an old guard.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
It is the collapsing of a regime. McConnell was doing the bidding of Biden and his foreign policy aims and ambitions for quite some time. You got to be fair, though. For whatever reason, maybe it was the Holy Spirit or just McConnell showed us what he did with Merrick Garland. You got to be fair. Was a cause set in motion. That was good. That was the best McConnell ever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
And what was striking, we had four or five questions from people in the audience that were liberal in nature. And you'll see those clips. But there was no widespread protesting. There was no spark. There was no opposition. There was no chanting. There was no Antifa. We have largely vanquished. The opposition. It's not going to stay that way. They will regather. They will regroup.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Everyone has a moment in their career that was very good. And then from there, it was just all downhill. It was when he peaked. It was peak McConnell was when he decided not to fill that Supreme Court vacancy. And from there, it's just been this collision course. In fact, senators have told me that McConnell, even when asked, hey, Mitch, we really need your vote. We really need your vote. No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
He just walks out of the room. He's become a very bitter person. His whole life was about holding onto political power, and now he's losing that. And he's just going to be remembered as a complete disgrace, a sellout to the people of Kentucky. No to Pete Hegseth. No to Tulsi. No to Bobby Kennedy. A terrible legacy, and the people of Kentucky deserve a lot better.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
And for those of you in Kentucky, I want to hear from you. Who do you guys want? for the U.S. Senate. Do you guys want more of the same? Do you want a McConnell-Hunta member? Or do we want a changemaker, someone that is going to actually represent the values of the phenomenal state of Kentucky, one of the greatest states in Kentucky?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
I think, and Blake, you can fact check me on it, Kentucky has the most, there's a term for it, like rivers or running water of any state. It's like the most streams. It's a beautiful state. Kentucky's gorgeous. A lot of the next generation is drowning in student loan debt, and you guys very well might be one of them. If you have private student loan debt, listen carefully.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
YREFI is not a debt settlement organization or company, but they work with each borrower individually, tailoring each loan to each specific situation. Private student loan debt in the U.S. has totaled over $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. YREFI refinances distressed or even defaulted private student loans that others won't dare to touch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Can you imagine being debt-free and not living under this burden anymore? Do you want to be unburdened by what has been? If you are a student loan borrower, go to YRefi.com. You've got to check it out right now. YRefi.com. They're huge supporters of our campus tour, for example, of America Fest. That's YRefi.com. YRefi.com. We only play this music.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
When we talk about El Rushbo, the doctor of democracy, the greatest ever. This music is sacred. It is holy. We only play it when we are doing a hat tip to the trailblazer himself. My friend Scott Hennin, I was on his program this morning, reminded me this was to the weak. I want you guys to remember this music, but I have so many memories. It's like all coming back at me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
It's like listening to songs of your youth. That song right there where El Rushbo would come on with a talent on loan from God with half his brain tied behind his back just to make it fair. Four years ago, Rush Limbaugh passed away. We were in political exile.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
I'm using this as an opportunity to show you how far we have come, everybody, and how much gratitude we should express to our Lord and our Savior, to the Almighty, to the divine providence. Not only did Joe Biden become president, but then we lose Rush. Donald Trump was in exile. Our entire movement was in darkness. And we were without our North Star, our guiding light, the great El Rushbo.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
We needed Rush during that period of time. We were aimless. And we as a movement weren't sure where to go. The great El Rushbo, time and time again, during the times of Obama, let us through it. During the times of the first Trump term, let us through it. Let us through the impeachments. Let us through Kavanaugh. Rush was the fulcrum. He was the trailblazer. He was the trendsetter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
He was the pacemaker. It's almost like God put all that burden of that time on the back of a new generation, focusing us to own it, to get strong. It was on us, and it was heavy. So I was subpoenaed by the January 6th committee. We had lawfare coming in every possible direction. It was dark. And now today doesn't look as dark.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
They will reorganize. But now is the time to accelerate and to make permanent. The gains that we showed during this last election to make it a permanent realignment. So yesterday was just further confirmation to solidify. The gains. So we were throwing out these beautiful white 47 hats, which you guys can also get. And the kids love them, by the way. Oh, they love them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Now today we are looking around at the victory that Rush made possible. Understand Doge, Elon, Rubio, Besant, Hegseth, Trump, JD, all follow in the footsteps of the great Rush Limbaugh. Four years ago to this week, he passed away. Here's just a montage of one of Rush's broadcasts. Before I play that one, actually, this is one of my favorite Rush statements.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Understand, what he was saying here was so ahead of his time. This is before woke political credence. He was so ahead of his time. Play cut 279.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
This was 20 years ahead of the virtue signaling political correctness, bend the knee, mandatory woke stuff. He understood the optics. He was funny. He was charming. He was lighthearted. And he was wicked smart. He was on top of all of it early. He saw it all with clarity across the landscape. He wasn't crazy. He was early. And they tried to take him out. Cancel culture came for a rush many times.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Remember Sandra Fluke? They tried to take him out, and Rush held the line, never apologizing. Montage of one of Rush's last broadcasts, play cut 283.

Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Because they're part of something greater than themselves. They're part of a movement of patriotic purpose. It's my new way of describing why kids are getting involved here. It's a patriotic purpose. It gives them a purpose to fight for their nation. And as we anticipated, we got a lot of questions on Doge. And I want to give credit to Daisy and Ryan and Blake and the whole team.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
When we kind of had our prep meeting, I said, guys, what am I going to hear on campus? They said, you guys are going to get a lot of Doge questions. And we were ready. And you're going to love these campus interactions where these kids were like, they shouldn't cut that. And I had all this, oh, really? You shouldn't cut the $20 million that we spent on a Sesame Street movie in Iraq?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
They had no idea the amount of waste of your money going to unnecessary government programs. Yesterday was yet another promising development in the fight to save the republic. Another promising development. One of the biggest wins so far for the Trump administration. My friend and friend of this show, and I think he's joined the show well over 30 or 40 times.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Kash Patel is the new director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The FBI has largely become the secret police of the Democrat Party in the deep state. The FBI was going after moms and dads and infiltrating Catholic masses. It was going after school board moms. The FBI became an intelligence operation largely after 9-11, not a law enforcement operation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
The FBI seemed slow and bureaucratic and indifferent towards some of the great crimes against humanity of child sex trafficking and pedophilia and Illegal. Illegal individuals in our communities breaking into homes and trend in Aragua and MS-13. The FBI seem more interested in trying to crush the conservative movement and the Republican Party. And that changed yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Kash Patel is now the head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. And the Democrat Party knows the significance of this. They know the weight of Kash Patel running the FBI. They know that playtime is over. This is Senator Peter Welch, part of the resistance, losing it over Kash Patel. Play cut to 60.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Can we just get a still image of Peter Welch on screen, please? I mean, you want to talk about someone that has no presence? This guy looks like a retired professor from France who they just picked up on the side of the street. Do you hate Kash Patel? Yes. What are your qualifications? None, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. No, no, no. Get the one of him with the beret on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
One of him outside the FBI building. This is what they got. This is what we're up against. This is the resistance brought to you by Peter Welch. Yeah, you get that image there. I'm going to talk lacking a little presence there. Look, I mean, you've got the octogenarian resistance that you got. You got the 85-year-old strong. You got Dick Blumenthal. You got Peter Welch.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
One thing the Democrats are right about is that fundamental change is coming to the FBI. Fundamental change. Business as usual is over. No more is the FBI going to be inverted against the American people. This is a seismic end to lawfare. Seismic. We campaigned on this. We talked about this. And they know that all of the dirty, evil deeds that was done largely by people like Adam Schiff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
And this is the most important thing. One of the disappointing outcomes of the 2024 election is, unfortunately, Adam Schiff is a senator. But remember this. Adam Schiff and Kash Patel have been dueling against each other for well, almost a decade. I would say over a decade, almost a decade. Adam Schiff and Kash Patel are arch enemies. Why?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Well, Adam Schiff was the one that was the driving legislative force behind Russiagate. Adam Schiff was the one that went on TV and said that there was credible evidence that Donald Trump was a compromised Russian agent. And Kash Patel was the staffer for Devin Nunes, former prosecutor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Without him, we never would have known about the FISA war and abuse, and we never would have gotten to the bottom of Russiagate. So Adam Schiff knows. Who Kash Patel is. Because Kash Patel revealed Adam Schiff to be a pathological snake liar. And Adam Schiff should be worried. U.S. senators will not be exempt from this kind of racketeering operation. Play cut 262.

Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
I mean, do you want to see why we're drawing 2000 kids at a liberal campus? This is their this is what they have. This is this is their team. You got Danang Dick Blumenthal. You got the retired professor, the beret man, Peter Welch. And you got Adam Schiff, who very well might be a criminal. Might be. Elon Musk responded to our tweet saying Adam Schiff is a criminal. He's done some very dark deeds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
The Adam Schiff-Kash Patel duel has now resulted in Kash Patel being director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. And the investigators will be investigated. And if they did something wrong, they'll be held accountable. The FBI has been behind almost every dark arts operation against the American people and against Donald Trump. They are the ones that raided Mar-a-Lago.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
They are the ones that illegally spied on Donald Trump's campaign. They are the ones that were the shock and awe troops against James O'Keefe and Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro. And now that very same organization is controlled by one of the finest patriots we have, Kash Patel. Hey, Charlie Kirk here.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
The Democrats are starting to lose it because they know what a properly run FBI can be. And it's time for us to reform it top to bottom. There are a lot of unprosecuted crimes in this country. The FBI should be focused on three or four things primarily. Number one, anything to do with the Mexican drug cartels. That's number one. Number two, violent crime in the streets of our country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Chicago, Houston, wherever there is federal jurisdiction in the administration of this crime, we need the FBI involved. Liberate these cities. Number three is any sort of international drug rings, Chinese Communist Party spies. We need to get them removed from the nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
And then number four, and probably most importantly, out of all the different things, is we must fire every FBI agent that was involved in the creation of the FBI being a surveillance operation and a lawfare machine. Now, understand this. Understand that the FBI has been far off course really since J. Edgar Hoover, which was around its charter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
The FBI did some very suspicious things in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. The key issue is trust. And it's very interesting. They'll joke in the FBI, not joke, but the FBI is, of course, the federal bureau of investigation. But they'll also say, what does FBI stand for? And I believe it's fortitude, bravery, and integrity. I can't remember what the F stands for.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Bravery and integrity, I think, are the other one. There has not been integrity to the FBI for quite some time. Christopher Wray has lived above the law. And remember who his predecessor was, James Comey, who probably broke federal law multiple times, lying to Congress, and was using the FBI when they sent Peter Stroke-Smerk. Let me think about this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Almost eight years, that's right, eight years to the day of this week, Right around this period of time, our FBI was sending FBI agents, Peter Strzok, to go and trap Patriot Lieutenant General Michael Flynn. And eight years later, we have Kash Patel running the FBI. We crawled out. We crawled out of a very deep hole. They wanted to take out our movement via a secret police.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
That's what we were up against. We were up against a taxpayer funded secret police. We were in the abyss. They controlled everything. And only a citizen, people focused, grassroots, bottom up reclamation project could make that happen. And understand the FBI, there's so much DEI, transgender nonsense. There's a lot that Kash Patel has to rip out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
There's a lot of people that should not be agents there that are currently agents. A lot of people that are agents there that shouldn't be agents.

But eight years later, we go from the FBI, literally the FBI walking through the Trump White House, uninvited, and entrapping the National Security Advisor.

Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
We had over 2,000 students attend over the course of two and a half hours. I took questions. We had some disagreements. And we had a phenomenal time. We're going to be posting a lot of those clips there as we were there. On the front lines... We were throwing out these hats, by the way, these white 47 hats we were throwing out, which people can get at charliekirkstore.com.

Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Eight years later, Kash Patel is running the FBI. Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Hello Kash Patel, Goodbye Mitch McConnell
Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier. So why is big pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency. Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a big pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food.

Hey, everybody, Tim Charlie Kirk Show, a phenomenal conversation with David Goodwin from the American Association for Christian Classical Schools. Really great conversation of what is education? What is truth? What is beauty? I think you'll really enjoy it. You might think that you're sending your kid or grandkid to a good school.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
What is education?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I love those, too. So you're saying most schools, they don't read anything post-100 years, and they definitely won't even tell a kid, hey, here's an 11-chapter book, you must read it. Right. What age usually is that, do you find? High school, if at all?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Do you think it's possible that there are kids right now that are juniors and seniors that have never read an entire book?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Now, I don't try to tell me there's kids that are juniors in high school in America that have never read a book.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
And I think it's a national security crisis.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Yeah, they've gotten rid of it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
So I was you're not to convince me on the cursive one. I was taught cursive. What what utility is there in cursive? Well, it's interesting. What what does it form?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I totally agree.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
So you helped run or you founded the Association of Classical Christian Schools?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Well, and it's also just for no other reason than it's different and challenges you. It does.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Yeah, I felt it was, at least my memory, it was very monotonous. I didn't like it. It was a pain or a labor.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
It was mandated in the schools I went to, not in the public schools, but in the, in the Christian school. And then the, um, uh, school I went to prior, uh, Are you a student loan borrower? If you're in debt, listen carefully. Private student loan debt is, in the U.S., totals about $300 billion. About $45 billion of that is labeled as distressed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. YREFI is not a debt settlement company, and they work with each borrower individually, tailoring each loan to each borrower's specific situation. You will not be calling a faceless call center. Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless, and they even lose hope.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
If you are one of those people with a distressed private student loan, go to Yrefy.com. That's Y-R-E-F-Y.com. A lot of you probably have distressed student loans and you've kind of ignored it or you're not really sure what to do. Go to Yrefy.com. Go to Yrefy.com. You can read the testimonials. It's a legit company, an ethical company. We love working with them. They support our campus tour.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
So I toured one of your schools in Boise.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
They're phenomenal. So because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless. Get yourself unstuck. Go to YREFY.com. If you have a distressed, defaulted student loan, you guys can get out of debt today. YREFY.com. That is YREFY.com. So parents, those two questions are phenomenal. What other one?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I was very impressed. And it was so different than traditional government-run schools and even private schools that have a industrial model, very German model. Explain to our audience what is the philosophical difference between a classical education and a more industrial type of education.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I mean, when I when I walked through your school, what's the name of the school in Boise again? The Ambrose School. The Ambrose School. When I walked through the Ambrose School, I was struck by how many old paintings, old pictures of paintings, statues. I'm talking about thousands of years old from or hundreds years old, Montesquieu to Aristotle, Socrates, Plato, Pascal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Remember, I brought Blake with me and he was naming all the. Yes. Remember that? Yes. Boy, that was that was a couple of years ago. Is there something to the idea of we want to have the students surrounded by the old and the last thing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
You might think that your kid's getting a good education, but listen carefully. You might not. You might want to reconsider what school you're sending your kid or grandkid to.

It's like a cabinet drawer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I think that's exactly right. And you look at the actual picture of the Department of Education, it actually looks like a file cabinet. Yes. Because that's literally what bureaucrat means, means desk worker. So we only have a couple minutes remaining here. I could talk about this all day long.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Do you, before we get into any specifics you want to plug, do you think that the current trend is favorable in American education right now?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
But I feel new energy behind this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
So they must get rid of the tradition and get rid of the West.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I totally agree. And I think that people are seeing the excesses of modernity. They're seeing the lies of secularized, hyper-modernist, materialistic culture. And they want to go back towards what is lasting, what is true. Now, Catholic education tends to be more classical. Is that fair to say? Because when I think of classical, I think of it more Catholic in nature.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
But you guys are Protestant, is that correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
It's not— There are Catholic classical schools.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Tell me about the Blaine Amendments. I don't know about this.

What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
How can people support you, get involved, and learn more?

Well, thank you. And I want to see more classical schools pop up. I want to see more classical Christian schools pop up in particular. And I'm really impressed. And thank you, David, for your time. Thank you. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.

What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
So talk about how your classes are not set up necessarily in single file rows, that it's much more discussion or dialogue based. And just so everyone understands from one perspective, the industrial model is done by most government schools, most private schools, which is that kids are something to be programmed. Correct. As if you're a carpenter. But you look at your job as more like a gardener.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
What does that mean?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
What do you mean by that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
So why is it that our public schools have gravitated so far away from this practice of learning?

Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show, a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
That's a profound observation. So the way the country is going now is government-run schools are failing terribly at even the basics. We have private schools that don't embrace the classical model. Is it fair to say the classical model takes more work?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
It is harder for a kid to go through a classical education than go to local Bakersfield Elementary.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin

What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
It was monotonous.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
Yeah. So it wasn't pointing towards anything at your schools, the American Association of Christian classical Christian schools. Are you I'm sure the answer is yes. But talk about how you're unafraid to talk about objective truth.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
That is one of the things that even some conservative parents say, well, I don't want a school or a government school or anyone saying ever that there is an absolute good or truth. Just teach the basics and move on.

Okay, everybody, a very special conversation here with my friend, David Goodwin. David, great to see you. It's great to be with you, Charlie. So, David, I'm going to ask a simple yet deep question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
All men seek to know. The philosophy starts with wonder. Both of those are two different, yes. But I think it's one of the first lines of Aristotle's metaphysics.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
I'm going to look it up in a second here, but something... I know all men seek to know is the beginning of one, either not the politics. That's a separate one. But actually, the beginning of politics is also every art, every inquiry, every action points towards some good. And you have to have a definition of what the good is. Right. And you're going to live under some superseding moral code.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
And that's something that the progressives have done a very successful trick on us, making us believe that there could be an agnostic public square.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
History, economics, the great works of literature. Did you study these things in school? Probably not. Or even if you did, maybe it's time for an enjoyable refresher. Hillsdale College is offering more than 40 free online courses, including their newest course on totalitarian novels.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
In this free eight-lecture course, you'll learn from Hillsdale College president Larry Arnn as he goes in depth on four novels, 1984, Brave New World, Darkness at Noon, and That Hideous Strength. I love all four. Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What is Education? What is Truth? What is Beauty? ft. David Goodwin
More importantly, they can show us that faith, family, and friends are worth fighting for. Maybe you read these books a long time ago in school. Maybe you've heard others talk about them, and they seem a little intimidating. Let Hillsdale College, America's greatest college, help you make the most of them.

I'm not asking you to criticize them, but what are very simple questions that they can ask, a checklist of whether or not their school is truly pursuing what is good, true, and beautiful?

I will do better receiving that, but it's the Turning Point team that deserves the credit. They worked so hard this cycle.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
That's the way to do it, through the grassroots. Everybody, please welcome Josh McCoon, state party chair of the great state of Georgia. Josh, walk us through what happened this cycle in Georgia. Donald Trump won. Tell us the story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
So let's walk through some of the ground game you guys did. What did you do as state party chair of Georgia that was different or better than previous cycles?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
What parts of the state really overperformed versus prior election cycles?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
for president trump by over 80 and that was the story all over the state in rural georgia basically like everybody voted absolutely what what do you attribute that to your ground game but there was obviously a messaging component why was it that the rules roared the way they did
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
What did you learn that can now be applied for future election cycles in Georgia?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
So walk us through. Georgia is the centerpiece for the 2026 midterms. Who is up? What is the configuration?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
So, Josh, let's speak more broadly. I mean, you were a centerpiece. The president entrusted you with Georgia. What is the direction you want to see the Republican Party go from a grassroots standpoint on how other state parties need to be run?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Josh, you did an amazing thing in Georgia. I don't know if we would have won Georgia if it wasn't for your leadership and for all that you did. Final thoughts, how could people support you, Josh, get behind the work that the Georgia GOP is doing?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole

The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Well, I think so. Silence. I'm such a college football fan and aficionado. Backstage, we have two big screens. One screen of what's happening on AmFest and another screen that is just college football coverage all day long. You know, you gotta have both. Yes, priorities. You know, light applause. So... There you go. Good luck.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Honestly, Donald Trump winning the White House and ASU in the college football playoff. Miracles do happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Pretty amazing. Sage, welcome. You've been increasingly outspoken this last year. How has that been for you in this scary political world?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
So, Sage, talk about the moment where you decided to go all in. You went from someone that was treated terribly by a certain sports network that we all reluctantly have to watch. And then you went all the way up until being on the Women's for Trump bus. Am I correct? Yes. So how did that happen? Walk us through the succession of events.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
I love it. So, Sage, there's people in this audience and people online that have that decision. A boss is telling them that they can't be political or a friend in college is bullying them or a professor. based on what you've learned, what is not just your advice, but the sharing of the lessons for those that are going through those fork in the road moments.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Sage, I got to make sure we stay on schedule, but just one more thing. Plug the Sage Steele Show for the audience, please, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Sage Steele, everybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
And what do we have?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
We need to defund the NGOs and investigate them criminally on day one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
But they take a lot of taxpayer money, too. They take a lot of government money. Ben, we'll be back in a second. We have a very special guest. This young lady is one of the most courageous people in the country. Chloe Cole. I mean that. Chloe was lied to by the medieval butchers that call themselves doctors of the transgender lobby. They told her that she needed to go undergo surgery.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Am I right, Chloe? Right. Drugs. And she is now what is called a detransitioner. Chloe realized that what she was being sold was irreversibly damaging. She speaks out with turning point groups across the country. She speaks out against this. And the trans zealots have death threats against you all the time because she speaks out against it. Chloe Cole is a hero.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Give it up for Chloe Cole, everybody. Chloe, speak a little about your story. We only have a couple of minutes and the importance of ending medical mutilation for kids in this country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
It's amazing. It's amazing. And Glenn, when we were chatting before, we asked the question, is God done with this country? Yeah. And it's so humbling to say, no, he's not. And I joked around with you before we got on air. I have to check myself because I'm getting almost too optimistic in a sense. Like we're always so kind of like the sky is falling. Things are terrible.
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Chloe, what do you have to say for the public policy and how many thousands of kids are currently being targeted by this mafia?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Yeah, I'm just looking here in Arizona. Arizona did adopt legislation that placed age limits on sex change surgeries for minors. Chloe, you are a detransitioner, which means that you had irreversible damage done to you. And just really quickly, how are you treated by the transgender lobby?
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
Chloe, we're out of time. She's an American hero, and we need to end the butchery of our children in this country. We need to do it day one. God bless you, Chloe.

in 2020 we wouldn't know all of the things that we know now we wouldn't know how deep this thing went i just want to interrupt you everyone here is applauding the fact we didn't take power in 2020 yes and that that is the sign of a very mature movement here yes not a bitter one not a scorned movement but a movement that looks back and says in romans 12 2 god will use all things for good for those who love him
The Charlie Kirk Show
AmFest, Day2: House Speaker Elon Musk? ft. Glenn Beck, Sage Steele, Josh McKoon, Chloe Cole
And at the time in 2020, we were like, this country is over. It's terrible. And it was terrible. But God knew what he was doing to strengthen our movement to make this term. Because, Glenn, I don't know if that term would have been that good. Oh, it wouldn't have been this. No. It wouldn't be what's coming.

Glenn, what did the four years in exile... mean for you? What was it for four years? Because everyone has a story. For us, it was our back against the wall. We found out who we were truly made of. What was it for you personally? And by exile, I mean this four years, displaced from power, a lot of confusion, not sure what was happening.

Hey, everybody, the Charlie Kirk show breaking news. President Trump goes indoors for his inauguration. We give you some inside perspective and a window into what went into that decision and the calculus behind it. James Comer joins program at his new book and more as we count down the hours to Liberation Day. Email me freedom at Charlie Kirk dot com and subscribe to our podcast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
That President Trump ran on. He ran on this sequence of fulfilling the mandate of the American people for the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
to return american manufacturing to this country president donald trump understands that what has been happening in this town for so long over the last couple of decades has been a relentless sabotage campaign against the american people from the wars that we declare from the people that we let into the country from the companies that we empower, from the deceit and the treachery.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
The American people have come last. But starting on Monday, you, the American people, come first. You become the priority. You are the tip of the spear. And President Trump brings you into the room. And there's going to be all this distraction about the inauguration. That's just a show. That's just a made-for-TV thing. Let me tell you what's going to happen on Monday. He becomes president.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
He's going to sign dozens, if not hundreds, of executive actions and orders, and it is go time. And every single day of the presidency for the next four years, I can tell you all the White House staff that will be working in there, they know what they want to do because they spent four years in exile thinking and praying about if they ever got another chance again, from Russ Vogt to Stephen Miller.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
And because of that, he knows that his people will sometimes wait hours on end, tens of hours on end outside and potentially get frostbite, pneumonia or die. He does not want to start his administration that way. And this is the right call. This is the right call that President Trump and the presidential inaugurational committee is making.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
From the loyalists on the inside, they said, God, if you will give us another chance, this is what we will do. And it's going to be shock and awe, everybody. And that's why this program is going to be more important than ever. That's why you and this audience are going to be more important than ever, because they're going to try to misconstrue all of the things that are going to happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Oh, you know, they're deporting little girls. They're deporting all this stuff. Look, let's get down to first principles. Let's get down to elemental facts. The American people voted for it, and they are going to get it. And it's not going to be just kind of a slow movement. It's going to be right out of the gate. It's going to be a legislative executive action blitzkrieg.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
So hold on, because President Trump, from the first second after he says, so help me, God, is going to fight for you and give you a voice that you've been missing the last four years. Charlie Kirk here. For many of us, the new year brings new joys and new financial challenges.

Check out my friends at andrewandtodd.com, andrewandtodd.com. Joining us right now is Congressman James Comer, obviously the House Oversight Chairman, author of the new book, All the President's Money, investigating the secret foreign schemes that made the Biden family rich. Congressman, thank you for taking the time. Let me just ask you a very simple question. How did Joe Biden get so rich?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
And this is like this is going to be a unique administration and in a unique time, starting in a very unique way. Usually we're very used to the aesthetic of the president being sworn in outside the Capitol. And now it will be in the interior of the Capitol, making it definitely the hardest ticket in town to get. So I know this is the breaking news. People are texting me about it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
So I suppose there will be no accountability for the enrichment of the Biden family as now we are in the last couple hours of their regime.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
So so Chairman Comer, you also met recently with Kash Patel, presumably the next FBI director. Tell us, what did you guys discuss?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
People are very confused of what is happening. From what I understand, all the other inauguration activities are scheduled to go as planned as we are here in Washington, D.C. And some people that are messaging me are saying, Honestly, very thankful that President Trump is going to be indoors, not exposed outdoors for that long period of time. Who knows?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
So sum up their legacy, your book, All the President's Money. You go into this. If you had to sum up the Biden legacy, what would it be?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
This is God's plan, and I believe it's for the better. And it is going to be remarkable to witness President Donald Trump taking the oath of office. Look, my crazy idea was just do the entire inauguration at Mar-a-Lago. That was my idea the entire time. Weather would be good. You can invite 2000 of your best friends and have it there on the lawn. But it's too late for that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
In closing here, Congressman, what does the work schedule look like for you guys out of the gate here? I know it's ambitious. I know you have a lot of things going on right now. What can we expect out of the House of Representatives and the work agenda coming ahead?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Finally, Congressman, remind us how people can buy your book and support what you're doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

Great. Thanks so much, Congressman. Come back soon. Appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

Breaking news, Vivek Ramaswamy is going to run for governor of Ohio. He's going to run for the coveted Ohio governorship. And Vivek, if you do that, looks like you will, you have our support 100%. We're behind Vivek in that effort in any way we possibly can help. And we think Vivek would win and be a great governor of the state of Ohio.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
We think that that is a great, phenomenal role for Vivek and excited to see him thrive and succeed as the governor of Ohio. Governor Kristi Noem had a phenomenal DHS hearing. Understand this. Out of all the campaign promises, the one that we need immediate action on, and that's going to be a thicket to get towards resolution, is going to be immigration.

Understand the life force of the illegitimate Democrat Party is being able to have foreigners come into the country and dilute the native-born American population. That is the life force of the Democrat Party. Without the foreign-born population, the Democrat Party will be a minority party in perpetuity. They need to have the invaders. They are reliant on on this population.

The very same Capitol where January 6th happened four years ago, inside that very same Capitol is where he is going to take the presidential oath of office. We've not seen this since 1985, and it's a tough call. Part of the calculus, I'm sure, is I want to be outside, I want to have the best visual, I want to have the best aesthetic. But what if somebody dies?

I mean, by the way, so many people very well might be traveling in from across the planet to wait, and they would wait days in advance. No, he has a moral obligation to the safety and security, and that starts on Monday. And so I completely see it from this perspective. And for people that are complaining, guys. Does it really matter where the swearing-in happens? It doesn't matter if it happens.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
By the way, Lyndon Baines Johnson famously did his swearing-in after John Fitzgerald Kennedy was shot on Air Force One or Air Force Two. He did it on an airplane being sworn in as President of the United States. Email me your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com. This is breaking news. We're going to be covering the Governor Noem hearing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
I don't know if that is still ongoing, but this is the breaking news right off the top right now. President Donald Trump moving the entire presidential inauguration indoors. And the presidential inaugural committee has a lot of work to do. Great people that are working there. Justin Caporale and so many other people that I know. Stephen Munoz, they're doing a great job. They're not going to have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
in easy time. But honestly, that's all pomp and circumstance. That's all pageantry. I believe it's going to be one of the most active, productive day ones of a presidency in history. So buckle up, everybody. The new administration is coming on Monday. Who cares if you're being sworn out outside or inside? Inside, much safer, by the way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
So for that, glory be to God, after he got shot back in July, this is the right move. Let's read his statement. It's quite extensive. We are here in the imperial capital right now, by the way. January 20th cannot come fast enough, President Trump writes. Everybody, even those that initially opposed a victory by President Trump and the Trump administration, just want it to happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
It is my obligation to protect the people of our country. But before we even begin, we have to think of the inauguration itself. The weather forecast for Washington, D.C., with the wind chill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows. There is an Arctic blast sweeping the country. I don't want to see people hurt or injured in any way.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
It is dangerous conditions for the tens of thousands of law enforcement, first responders, police canines, and even horses. Pause. President Trump cares about animals. and hundreds of thousands of supporters that will be outside for many hours on the 20th. In any event, if you decide to come, dress warmly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Therefore, I have ordered the inauguration address, in addition to prayers and other speeches, to be delivered inside the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by President Ronald Reagan in 1985, also because of very cold weather. The various dignitaries and guests will be brought into the Capitol. This will be a very beautiful experience for all and especially for the large TV audience.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
We will open Capital One Arena on Monday for live viewing of this historic event and to host the presidential parade. I will join the crowd at Capital One after my swearing in. That's kind of cool. So he does the swearing in, then he'll go indoors at Capital One Arena immediately after as president of the United States. That's a really beautiful touch.
The Charlie Kirk Show

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

All other events will remain the same, including the victory rally at Capital One on Sunday at 3 p.m. Doors open at 1 p.m., so please arrive early. And all three inaugural balls on Monday evening. So I know there's a lot of emotion surrounding this. This is the right move. President Donald Trump would be blamed if somebody got pneumonia or frostbite.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Look, I'm here at the Imperial Capitol right now. It is no joke cold right now. And I grew up in Chicago, so I know cold when I experience it. And you're going to have people from all across the country that are Trump enthusiasts, young kids that are coming. No, no. President Donald Trump has an obligation to the people of this country. And you got to do the right thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
You got to do the right thing. Moving it indoors. Also, for his safety.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
given the events of what happened on july the 13th and also what happened almost did not happen praise god because of divine intervention at the golf course in palm beach was happening outside so president donald trump will be delivering the first inaugural address indoors since 1985. but honestly what difference does it make what are we getting greedy for the aesthetic we have some of the greatest aesthetics from president donald trump in history
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
We have McDonald's. We have him rising after he got shot. We have him with the garbage truck. What are we trying to get greedy for a visual? No, no, no. You can have a great visual. Barack Obama had a beautiful visual. So help me God. Terrible presidency. No, we are going to have. a great presidency, and also a beautiful visual as well inside the Capitol Rotunda.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Now, this decision, I'm sure, was not made easily. You know the logistics that happens. I mean, just to be clear, this does not make Charlie Kirk or Turning Point's life easier. We have hundreds of people that are coming in that are getting tickets and seating. And so my answer is, well, maybe we can get you all into – Capital One Arena. And everybody's going to be safe. Everyone will be happy.

Then President Trump takes the oath of office. And from that moment, he starts signing. And the American Renaissance begins. We have one long weekend to endure.

And starting on Monday, the new golden era begins. And also, might I remind you, it was a different time. The ninth president of the United States, I think it was ninth, William Henry Harrison, the shortest serving president in American history, was inaugurated in very icy Arctic conditions. He gave the longest inauguration speech ever.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
And he also had the shortest term because he died of complications of pneumonia a few short weeks after being inaugurated. David helped write that email to us. William Henry Harrison. Reminded me of William Henry Harrison. Longest inauguration speech ever. Shortest, I think he only served 33 days or 40 days as president and died of pneumonia. It's not something to play around with here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
President Trump, you want him for four good years. Let's not play games, everybody. And honestly, who cares? Play it safe. We've had a very eventful 2024. We need Trump healthy, Trump strong, and we need his signing hand strong. We need his signature to be ready. We need President Trump's signature to be precise and
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
He's going to do a lot of signing, a lot of reversing, a lot of deregulating, a lot of deporting, a lot of pardoning. President Donald Trump, with his legendary signature, needs to be safe and ready to go. And he has a phone, too. And a new American era of dominance starts on Monday at high noon. We need to be very clear about this with President Trump moving this indoors.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
For those of you that are upset, why exactly are you upset? What are you angry about? Just take a deep breath. He's going to be president. It's not Kamala Harris's inauguration. It's not Joe Biden's inauguration. By the way, I guarantee you this. For all of you that are upset in the audience, this makes my life a lot harder than yours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
This is not because of terrorist threats or security threats or safety threats. This is President Trump's concern for all the hundreds of thousands of people that would be coming to Washington, D.C., that would have to endure near cold zero temperatures. The president cares deeply about the American people. He has an obligation to the safety and the security of the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
And we're actually going to be focused on policy issues and fulfilling the mandate. The circumstance in front of us, is we're really focused on the pageantry and the pomp and circumstance. There you see the presidential inauguration back in 2017. The Joe Biden inauguration was so depressing. People were so spread out. It was just a joke.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Definitely going to get a different visual when President Donald Trump takes the oath of office inside the Capitol Rotunda. It all kind of goes full circle. The media is going to spin this any way they possibly can. But he's president. And guess what? One week from today, are we going to be talking about whether or not he got sworn in at Mar-a-Lago or at the Capitol or a Capital One arena?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Three Days To The Liberation
Of course not. And some of you would criticize, say, oh, Charlie, you're just trying to play it safe. Well, some ways, actually, I do care greatly about the safety of President Donald Trump. I care greatly about keeping him in a place where he can do the job for all four years to fulfill the promise that the American people gave him. I was just looking it up.

The ticketing for the inauguration just went from 300,000 tickets to 500 tickets. A little bit of a shrinking. So it got basically 750,000 tickets. Is that right? 150,000 times harder to get the ticket. It's like got shrunk by that multiple. No, that's not right. Anyway, I'll do the math later. The presidency in front of us is going to be one of promises made and promises kept.

You've got some goodies here. Scott Besant is going to have some serious challenges in front of him. What would you say are the biggest ones, if you had to identify them?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
So from a policy standpoint, what would you like to see happen as far as the Treasury Secretary managing the money supply to be able to boost middle class income?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
And look, there's a chance that inflation does continue to get out of control. Talk about how gold is doing and silver. Gold has been very reliable. In fact, I think gold is at $2,751 an ounce. Correct. Yeah. Yeah. Gold was up 26% last year. 26%?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
the very baseline. So if you have a new 3% baseline inflation rate, what is it technically now? I have it here somewhere. I don't believe that. Can you talk about the fabrication of some of these inflation numbers? Because people will tell you things are getting more expensive than that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
So the challenge for the administration will be to manage that inflation, navigate those waters. Talk about what you're doing at Noble Gold Investments and your new book about silver, which is equally as interesting.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
So, yeah, let's just talk more. The announcement was made this morning by Governor DeSantis. Ashley Moody will fill the vacant seat. And so that obviously keeps us solidly in the majority and will be another powerful voice in the United States Senate. So walk us through how the confirmation process is going right now, Senator. We have Scott Bessant and also Pam Bondi.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
So why hasn't silver since 1980s moved and why will it now? I know you're going through some of those, but what do you think will be the forcing function?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Yeah. How much is this by the way?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
I asked Colin if I could keep it. He said, no. Well, we'll talk about it. I'll give you a good price on it. I'll do a great price. I know you'll do a great price. Keep going, please.

How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Yeah, praise God you guys were spared, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
And you can- Now silver takes more to supply though, right? I mean, it takes it to store.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
But gold is not, I mean, this is- Yeah, I mean, this is, yeah, right.

What do you make of this move that some states want to have a gold-backed currency? Have you seen this, Texas? Texas has done it. Yeah. There's this big move right now of states to try to have a metallics-based currency. Reserve system, basically.

It's noblegoldinvestments.com. I've known Colin for a while. He's the best in the business. There's a lot of shady people out there in gold. He's as good as it gets. Would you say there's some shady people in the gold industry? I would say yes. Let's just say not great actors. Colin's as good as it gets. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

This is a very important reminder about your year-end giving. If you're looking to do something that makes the greatest impact, join me in providing ultrasounds with pre-born and saving babies. And remember that 100% of your gift goes directly to providing ultrasounds.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Preborn separately fundraisers for overhead and administrative, so you can now know that every penny you give right now will go directly to the cause. I am a donor, so listen carefully. When we do this with Preborn, providing free ultrasounds to girls and women, it doubles the chance those moms will choose life. $140 gives five free ultrasounds and saves babies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day. And speaking of your end giving, I can't think of a better one than a $15,000 gift providing an ultrasound, saving thousands of lives for years to come. I'm a donor. Join me in donating at 833-850-2229 or click on the preborn banner at charliekirk.com. That is 833-850-2229, preborn banner at charliekirk.com.

So, Colin, there were some numbers you were showing me here. Do you want to pull those up? They're very interesting. By the way, it's a lot in gold. That's nice. It's a lot of gold, I'll tell you. Make sure you protect that. It looks like Scott Besson has just wrapped up as the cameras are flooding him. That is a wrap for January Madness committee hearings. What are we looking at here?

So I don't do any investment advice. I'm legally not allowed to or on federally regulated radio, nor would I because I'm not there. But I think it's fair to say that.

So, Senator, can you contrast the pace at which the Senate is operating right now versus 2017? It feels as if there was just a slow walk back during Trump won. This seems to be moving at a rapid pace, even so that I think you and many other senators are bouncing in between simultaneous concurrent hearings. Is that correct? Absolutely.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
So there are several votes upcoming. Can you just walk through our audience how this is going to work? So President Trump in three days and 22 hours and 47 minutes becomes the 47th president of the United States. I'm sure I'll see you there, Senator. But then it's a workday for you where most of us are going to kind of go celebrate. We have a big ball to host. It is a workday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Walk us through what that day looks like as far as how quickly we can get these people confirmed into office.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
No, I think you're right. I think I think Rubio could pass on a voice vote and also understand that it's unusual for senators to vote against one of their own, especially someone like Senator Rubio, who's been around for quite some time and despite disagreements, has always been very respectful and cordial to the other side.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
So, Senator, if you were to say which of the ones do you anticipate a little bit of drama or a little bit of a fight? Pete Hegseth had a great hearing, was obviously very high profile. Tulsi Gabbard. Which are the ones that our audience should really focus on to try to make sure that President Trump gets his full cabinet?

I have two questions for you. Are you unknowingly missing out on God's blessing by not aligning your investments with biblical principles? Would you like your hard-earned retirement dollars to support Israel, God's land and chosen people? Most people don't realize the spiritual and financial benefits of investing in Israel because they lack the knowledge to do so effectively.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Don't let your investments become disconnected from your faith and values. Diversify those dollars into Israeli shekels to fulfill your biblical mandate and partner with Israel's future. To top it off, Israel has one of the fastest growing, innovative, and resilient economies in the world.

and groceries, now you're going to have an economic revolution. This is exactly why Joe Biden did what he did in his farewell address. Do we have Joe Biden's farewell address? Joe Biden didn't believe a word of what he said last night. However, it was very well written. Whoever wrote that speech was basically lamenting that that is what the Democrats should have said this last year.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
Run against the oligarchy. Run against the entrenched economic powers and interests. Joe Biden's farewell address is would have been very politically challenging for Donald Trump to run against.

Donald Trump himself being a billionaire, Elon Musk being a billionaire, even though Joe Biden got more support from billionaires and more support from the 1%, and the wealthiest counties in America disproportionately voted for Joe Biden, I think 8 out of 10 of the wealthiest counties, it's a message that would have been very difficult for Republicans to overcome.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
If Democrats would have been sane on immigration, sane on crime, sane on the trans stuff. Instead, it's just completely out of control. And Joe Biden's farewell address said that there is a smaller and smaller group of people controlling more and more of the wealth. I mean, he's correct. Of course, he didn't believe that throughout any part of his presidency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
He pandered to that very same oligarchy. He made that oligarchy protected by the lawfare regime. He did the bidding of that oligarchy. But we don't want to live in such an oligarchy. We want to be able to have it where there is robust free market competition. That if you want to be able to get to $400 billion in wealth like Elon Musk, we have no problem with that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Joe Biden Could Have Won 2024 — But Didn't
But we want to make sure that we can get 10, 20, 30 more people like Elon Musk. We want this to be the center of entrepreneurial activity around the planet. We do not want to have a system where there is an entrenched ruling class that is untouchable.

Now he's worried about an oligarchy. Last week, he gave the nation's highest civilian honor to George Soros. He doesn't believe any of this. This last election, Joe Biden represented the oligarchs, and now he's regretting that he didn't run against them. But it was the people versus the plutocrats. That is what this election was all about. It was the people versus the plutocrats.

And we, the people, own the table. We got a seat at the table. And now the chairman of the board is back to being we the people. But what I'm reading here with this economic data, as Scott Beston continues his testimony, this is unsustainable. It is unsustainable that the biggest banks in the country are posting a 50% profit and doubling of income at Goldman Sachs.

How many of you in this audience saw your net income double this last year? Anybody? Anybody in this audience see your income for your family double? How about up by 50 percent?

I mean, it was this amphitheater unlike anything we've ever seen. We had well over 3,000 to 4,000 students there. And it was really something. I got to be honest. And look at the amount of students from all different walks of life. It's one of the biggest crowds we've ever had.

We Have a Border Again
So all that to say, that is a little wonky, but I think I was tracking it. Do you think we'll get a big, beautiful bill before July 4th?
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
And I got to give the University of Tennessee credit, not for anything they've done, but they built a great amphitheater that made our job very easy yesterday. And as a presenter and as a speaker, it was it was pretty awesome and phenomenal. Yesterday, I was asked by some, well, Charlie, what has Trump even done so far as president? What has he done in the last 53 days?
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
So what ingredients can we expect in this big, beautiful bill? I know we're going to get more border funding. And can we also get spending cuts in this big, beautiful bill? Or is this a supplemental?
The Charlie Kirk Show

Well, hold on. Time out, time out, time out. I don't want to do the DC thing. Is that a trillion a year or a trillion over 10 years?

I don't think we have spent enough time on this program pausing, internalizing, and celebrating the magnitude and the weight of what President Trump has accomplished when it comes to the southern border. People know it. They're hearing it. But what I want to do is emphasize it to such an important degree to you today. To show you what President Trump has done on the border is so remarkable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
So, Senator, I want to keep you for another segment here because this is, to your credit, very thoughtfully delivered and not just kind of the drive-by cable news thing. I think people should subscribe to our podcast and re-listen to everything the senator has gone through here because this is really good, meaty stuff.

So what role then do the courts play in tying up some of the administration's actions when it comes to spending? Because that's also an ingredient here. Thank you.

We are barreling towards a fiscal apocalypse. This is a number to commit to memory. You know this, Senator, but for the audience. Every day we are borrowing $2 billion to just pay for the interest on the debt. $2 billion a day just go to interest payments. $2 billion a day. That's nearly $700 billion a year. We're almost spending the same on our defense budget than on interest on our debt.

Proudly assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Burna's less lethal pistol launchers loaded with tear gas and kinetic ammunition can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes, allowing you to safely escape or call for help while reducing the risk of severe injury.

Senator, is that possible? Number one. And number two, a more provocative question. Are tax increases at all on the table?
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
And it should never be taken for granted. U.S. Border Patrol, in the month of February, arrested 8,300 border jumpers coming into our country in February. 8,300 in an entire month. That is the fewest ever recorded. Let me say that again. That is the fewest ever recorded. And unlike under Joe Biden, they are not being released into the interior of the country. They're not getting a court date.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
So, Senator, finally, what other little passion projects are you going to try to advocate to be put into this big bill? The board of the taxes will get all the attention. The way this works, though, is that there could be a lot of little wins. For example, maybe a repeal of the Johnson Amendment. I'd love to see that, which has been an anti-church amendment since Lyndon Baines Johnson.

They're being returned to their country of origin. Now, it's very easy to attack President Trump saying, oh, these tariffs are a waste of time. Not so fast, my friend.

So we went from 141,000 under Joe Biden to 8,300. 141 to 8.3. A year ago, more than 3,500 people were caught crossing the border who were originally from China. Now it's only 130, and they're all being sent back to China. A year ago, 600 people were caught crossing from Marsha Tanya. That's an impoverished African country where slavery is still very, very common.

This month, the total was one, and they were sent back to their country of origin. This was always a question of the will. Washington claimed, including Mitch McConnell and James Lankford, that they needed sweeping new laws to secure the southern border, and they were lying to you. So there's two parts of what I want to talk about here. And also, by the way, there is breaking news.

President Trump just posted that he had great discussions with Vladimir Putin. I'm going to allow Blake to pivot and read and analyze that while I break this down. So, Blake, please focus on the Putin news while I continue on this, because I want to I need to emphasize the border when there's so much happening.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
But we we have to take a little bit of time and slow down and say, wow, what President Trump has accomplished here is remarkable. This was always a question of whether or not we wanted it. Understand that the biggest questions of our time, whether it be homelessness, whether it be the southern border, inflation, is whether or not we want... What is best? Joe Biden did not want a southern border.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
He wanted a dilution of national sovereignty. He wanted a great replacement of American citizens. He wanted a nonstop flow of illegals into the country. For whatever reason, you can guess, you can hypothesize, but we know that he wanted it. We know certainly that is what he wanted. Let's go to some of the tape here. It is so remarkable. This is Bill Malusian.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
And Bill Malusian is going to be out of a job. Bill Malusian was the caravan correspondent. Bill Malusian was the border guy. Bill Malusion's going to have to come work at the Charlie Kirk show. And by the way, we would love to have Bill Malusion. I don't think Fox would want to see him. Fox is doing a great job, by the way, especially lately out of this coverage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
But Bill Malusion's got to find a new line of work. Maybe Bill Malusion can be the senior Canadian correspondent. There's a lot to cover there. He goes from the border correspondent to the Canadian correspondent. Bill Malusian is a top-tier American, 10 out of 10 patriot, phenomenal reporter. But he's going to have to find a new thing to cover.

Over the last 21 days, there's been an average of only 77 gotaways. By the way, it should be zero. We're going to get to zero. It's going to be Project Zero. That's a 95.8% decrease from Biden highs.

The liberation of your country is being televised. The restoration of your sovereignty is happening in real time. President Trump will be criticized every day in the media. But he needs to be heralded and celebrated by every patriot in America because you have a border again. Your sovereignty is coming back to life. And that needs to be repeated on a daily basis. Told to your friends.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
Told to your family. We were told that this cannot be solved. We were told that this was an impossibility. We were told that this needed to have a bipartisan bill. We need to put all these people in a room together. Do you know the bipartisan bill that Jim Lankford was pushing, James Lankford, would have allowed 5,000 people a day to come across the southern border? Well, 4,999.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
Senator Lankford, if he would have got his way and Mitch McConnell would have got his way, they would have put handcuffs on President Trump who would have inherited this border bill. That is why they did it. They pushed this bill to try to prevent the now border closure that you are living through. It would have codified illegal immigration into law. It would have had permanency for the invasion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
And President Trump would have said, I never signed this. And he would have said, well, too bad. You have to live under the 4,999 statute. You would have had a rolling average, a rolling new norm of just 4,999 people a day. Here's Joe Biden saying, well, we need a bipartisan border bill. And it goes right onto James Lankford's face. And I hope you never forget the treachery of James Lankford.

We did not need a bipartisan bill. We needed a new president. And with the new president, we now have a border, a restoration of our country. Praise the Lord. But never forget that if James Lankford would have got his way, none of this would have been made possible. We defeated the regime. President Trump did.

That is 1-800-4-RELIEF, 1-800-4-RELIEF. This is James Lankford. I can't get off of this. The Putin Trump news is not that breaking, but it is important. We'll get to that. But understand and repeat and commit it to memory and teach it to your children and teach it to your neighbors that we would be living in a much different reality right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
The reality would be that Trump would say, let's close the border. Sorry, there was a bipartisan bill signed under Joe Biden. And James Lankford was the defender, the author, and the advocate of trying to neuter Donald Trump. He was trying to cut off Donald Trump's ability to do what the voters wanted him to do. And honestly, credit to Speaker Mike Johnson. I got to give credit where credit's due.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
We call balls and strikes here on this program. Mike Johnson was a hard no on this border bill. Good for him. Remember when everyone said, oh, you know, they want the border to be open. No, no, no. We knew that this bill would have codified 4,999 people coming across the southern border.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
Congress, which was led by James Lankford on the Republican side, said that 5,000 people a day is a normal amount of traffic at the border. This looked like it could pass. The Senate was getting on board. James Lankford was leading it. And Mike Johnson, to his credit, And his little, tiny, mighty majority nuked it. So you've got to give Mike Johnson credit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
It might have been one of the greatest things Mike Johnson ever did as Speaker. You've just got to always be clear about where things are. What he did was significant. He stood up to James Lankford in this entire – Team, here's James Lankford bragging on cable TV about how they wanted to steal Donald Trump's term away from him. Let's play Cut 269.
The Charlie Kirk Show
We Have a Border Again
Wrong, James Lankford. We'll never forget. Trump's not struggling. He didn't need a bill. You are wrong. You are a liar. You are a fake. You are a fraud. You went on TV and say, well, every administration struggled. Trump right now is not struggling. Trump is hanging out doing other stuff. He's renaming the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America, because we have a border. There's no struggling.

We Have a Border Again
Oh, every administration struggling. It just took a will. It took a desire. It took willpower to get it done. It did not take some bipartisan committee. And you on TV right there, well, every administration has struggled. No, no, no, no. You only struggle if you don't want it. And we're kicking you out of office, James Lankford.

I'm going to say this every month, and I am not going to forget about this one. Like a heat-seeking missile, we're coming after him in 2028. And he might want to run for governor. He's not going to be able to run for mosquito abatement director in Enid, Oklahoma, after this. Because the great people of Oklahoma are smart. They're wise. They've got a great cuddliness to them. They're tough.

You see, you got Jon Favreau. Well, we wanted to do this, but we couldn't. And it's really frustrating. And I don't know why we couldn't do it. And you got that other guy. I don't even know his name. This is really frustrating. I know it's very important because these are mid-level managers that have graduated to podcasting. And they found themselves on the losing end of every single 70-30 issue.

Praise the Lord. I mean, I want to just take a step back here, Cain. I mean, you are kind of the news Svengali. You see it all. You monitor it. I mean, you and I have had not a chance to catch up for quite some time. Cain, give us your take of the maximalist approach, the flood the zone that we are seeing from President Trump and his team.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
But understand, you got masculine, determinative, go forth and conquer, go west, young man, energy that is now in the White House. That's not this little mid-level management mentality. Ethos. I mean, you've got a bunch of femboys over there. That's what the Democrat Party is. Well, maybe we have to have a little bit of a council and a committee, and we can't offend other people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
We wanted to do it, but you couldn't do it. You don't have what it takes. You don't have the intestinal fortitude. You don't have the grit. You don't have the spine. It's not just about ideas and policies. It's about do you have the DNA and the fiber, and the Democrat Party does, and that's the best that they have to offer. But, of course, they took after their boss, Obama.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
Obama was just there as a mid-level manager. Community organizer type. And now they're realizing they're losing. Oh, yes, they are. Doge is incredibly popular. It's popular with young people. It's popular with people of all ages, but especially Gen Z. Because, yes, we should break government. It doesn't work for you. We're borrowing trillions of dollars that we don't have.

There's a new article from Unheard by Josh Hammer. Anti-Trump judges spark a legal crisis. They're the ones sparking a legal crisis. Josh, welcome to the program. What are your thoughts?
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
What does that look like, reining it in, in practice? Because the juristocracy is exactly right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
Yeah. So but can they remove the judges or impeachment? That's just kind of a slap on the wrist because it seems as if they're basically permanently in there.

And, you know, Cain, what what do you make of the administration coming with such preparedness, such precision, the executive orders, the pace, the rapidity? I agree that the time in exile. I think was very good in a lot of different ways for us. I mean, Cain, that's where you and I got to know each other, where we were the furthest away from the presidency imaginable.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
When you and I started talking, when you started to come on this program, I mean, Cain, it was like Trump was like 12% in the betting odds to become president. Remember? I mean, he was indicted, and there was lawfare, and you and I would talk late at night and say, man, I don't know about this. I mean, he just crawled himself out of the impossible hole.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
To a place where now he's the most popular person on the planet, most powerful person on the planet. I think one of the inflection points was East Palestine, Ohio, when he went there. And that was the beginning. I'm going to go to forgotten America. Biden is forgetting them. Full court press. And it's only going to get deeper and better.
The Charlie Kirk Show

So we have some amazing stories here on citizenfreepress.com. And it seems as if the American people, Cain, are largely supporting this.

We had one every week, sometimes multiple times a week. And everybody in this audience deserves incredible credit for how you had the resolve and you stayed focused.

By the way, can we just brag on how great Marco Rubio has been? I mean, can we just say how great Pete Hegseth has been? I mean, this is the big three. I hope you guys understand. I got three people that I just can't say enough good stuff about. Marco's been a 10. Pete Hegseth has been a 10. And J.D. Vance has been a 10. As we do this program right now, Donald Trump is calling shots.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
He's the offensive coordinator. He is the air traffic controller. We got Marco Rubio solving all the Nicaraguan, Guatemalan, Venezuelan, Colombian problems, which is immense because all the migration stuff starts there. He's speaking Spanish to them and speaking true to them. We got Pete Hegseth doing PT with our troops at 0500, where Lloyd Austin couldn't walk up a flight of stairs.

And then on the other side, we got J.D. Vance. He was in Paris. He's going to Dachau, and now he's doing Munich, tomorrow, given one of the most important speeches for a sitting vice president in modern American history.

OK, there is a very successful podcast called Pod Save America, and it is hosted by the Obama bros, Dan Pfeiffer, Tommy Vitter, John Favreau and John Leavitt. And here they are on this clip. And we're going to keep it's a longer clip, but I want to go through it with you lamenting. But, oh, we should have done this when we were in office.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
And this is a perfect picture of kind of the Democrat mind. Now, hilariously, this is the type of person that can't get hired at the top of a Democrat administration anymore. But you can kind of see that they're kind of in charge of the limp-wristed mafia over there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
It's not a lot of spirit, not a lot of spunk, because you can see that as they're lamenting over Doge, it's the perfect picture into what's wrong with the Democrat Party. Oh, we should have. We could have. Why didn't we? It's because they're missing that kind of masculine energy to go forth and to change. Watch this clip very carefully. These were all of kind of senior aides to Barack Obama.
The Charlie Kirk Show
This Is What "Flood the Zone" Means
Again, their podcast is very popular, and I respect that. But they're going through talking about how what Elon Musk is doing is working, that they wanted to do some of this stuff, and they couldn't. And that Gen Z likes it. Very telling clip here. Play cut 182.

Yeah, it's so funny. I haven't even read the entire document of Project 2025. She's making it seem as if this is the official policy position of President Trump's campaign. His position is 20 things. It's very simple. It's to drill, baby, drill, secure the border, deport the criminals that are here, no men and women's sports. Very simple stuff. Project 2025 is...

Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
A project that was done outside of the Trump campaign by the Heritage Foundation, not blessed or condoned. But she's trying to make it seem as if this is like the official policy platform of the Trump campaign. Because it sounds super scary. It's this 800-page document. I think people are wiser than that. Instead, we should ask, what is Kamala Harris' agenda 2025? What is her agenda? Right.

She will not do an interview. The only way she'll do an interview is sit down with a chaperone at CNN. Her first time she talked to reporters in 46 days. Here, I'll take any question from anybody for three hours on straight. I'm doing 22 of these campus visits across the country.

Oh, well, the Venezuelan elections show that elections can be interfered with. I'm more worried about what's happening in Brazil right now. The fact that our State Department is allowing X or Twitter to be outlawed and just banned in the country of Brazil is unbelievable to me. And so there's a lot of creepy stuff happening in the southern hemisphere. Maduro obviously lost.

Yeah, I mean, look, Trump's not going to win Illinois. I wish he would. First of all. Still vote, still work. But if you live in Illinois, you're discouraged, get in the car, drive to Wisconsin, and go knock on doors to try to get Trump to win in Wisconsin.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
That's the right answer. So your vote's going to matter a lot more in Wisconsin than in Illinois. Don't be discouraged, but you're definitely outnumbered. And try to win local elections before you try to win the big ones. You want a hat? Yes, please. All right. Only if you wear it on campus, all right? There you go. Yes.

Well, no, but let's go through 2020. So do you think it's normal for the CIA to interfere in American elections? No.

Okay, so what is your opinion about the CIA interfering with the 2020 election?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Yeah, okay, great. So 50 former intel agents run by Tony Blinken signed a letter calling the Hunter Biden laptop Russian disinformation. According to a poll by the Media Research Center, over 20% of swing voters would have voted for Trump if they would have known about the Hunter Biden laptop.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So before we get into counting or before we get into anything, the experts were the ones that were signing a letter saying that the Hunter Biden laptop was from Russia. And that directly impacted people's votes.

Number two, is it normal when one of the world's wealthiest people, Mark Zuckerberg, put $400 million into our election system in heavy Democrat areas to boost Democrat turnout, otherwise known as Zuckerboxes? No one disagrees with that. In fact, it was so controversial, Wisconsin has now banned Zuckerboxes in this upcoming election so that out-of-state billionaires cannot pump money in there.

And finally, when it goes to the errors in the 2020 election... We have to understand that Twitter and Facebook did not allow us.

And so when President Trump is talking about the issues of the 2020 election, let's just forget all the ballot issues, forget all of that. He's talking about the most powerful institutions that were preventing us from being able to get information out to swing voters. The threat to democracy is the CIA, is the FBI, is the Department of Justice.
The Charlie Kirk Show

It's the Department of Justice that's trying to put Donald Trump in jail right now so that people cannot make decisions about their candidate. Donald Trump is not a threat to democracy.

Yeah, I mean, this is huge. First of all, you just have to lower inflation more broadly. That's number one. Number two, you have to go after the hospital lobby where the hospitals are gouging prices significantly. Number three, this is why I'm wearing the Make America Healthy shirt. We have to try to get at the root cause, which is the food that we are feeding ourselves and our kids.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
We have to get to the fact that we are an increasingly sedentary country. We aren't walking enough. We're not exercising enough. And health care costs are exploding because we don't actually address the root cause 20 or 30 years prior.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Well, the first thing is we should have a real conversation about banning pesticides in when we're making our food. Ultra ultra processed food. Ultra processed food should not be on the FDA recommended food pyramid. Right. This is why I love Bobby Kennedy coming and joining teams with Donald Trump is that it's his life mission to make America healthier. We have a chronic disease epidemic.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Half of all America's kids. are chronically obese or overweight. In Japan, it is 3%. It's not because our kids are lazier. It's because we are actively poisoning our kids with food from big ag that we're spraying with all these pesticides, these chemicals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
And if you look at the ingredient list of just a Lunchables box, we are basically giving kids the worst thing possible for their metabolism, for their endocrinology. So I'm more interested in a healthcare conversation that tries to make sure that a 12-year-old doesn't have to get on Ozembic by the time they're 18 years old.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
And just so you know, they're giving pediatric Ozembic now for 12 and 13-year-olds. They are now treating obesity as a genetic disorder that you cannot do anything about. And they just want a 12-year-old to now have to take a shot every week to try to curb their obesity, which has all other sorts of very, very negative health implications. So every day, potentially, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
And so so how do we solve that? Well, my personal crusade, we have to blow up the food pyramid that we have way too many carbohydrates in our diet, not enough healthy fats and not enough protein. Whoever made that was obviously bought by the big ag companies. And you should just say, I'm not going to have any more high fructose corn syrup. I'm not going to have any more processed sugars.

Can you give him a little bit more space?
The Charlie Kirk Show

And if there are ingredients I can't pronounce, I should resist it. And in the ideal, we should have a government that promotes the question, did God make it or did man make it? have more foods every day that God made more so than what man made, and you'll be a lot healthier because of it. So thank you very much. Appreciate it. Thank you. All right. Yes, sir.

what that means anti-dei so for example let's just take in when you yeah the question was explain what anti-dei so there's anti-dei in curriculum than anti-di in practice let's talk about practice first so if you are hiring somebody for example to become a surgeon or to become a healthcare technician uh to not have dei means you're going to hire only based on merit not based on skin color a dei program says well we need 12 or 20 of all of our surgeons to be black
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
I don't care the color of the skin of my surgeon. I want my surgeon to be the best in the world. So an anti-DEI program is to put merit above something that doesn't matter race. A DEI program would say, well, half your pilots aren't black, and that's a problem. So that would be a DEI program.

Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Iran. OK. Yeah. So here's a great example. Iranians, Persians, you guys do not need DEI. You're the most successful immigrant group to America by far because you're some of the smartest, hardest working. And you did that without any sort of favors and any sort of handouts. I mean, Persian businessmen have done amazing in America, not because of DEI. In fact...
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
DEI would say, oh, Persians are too successful. We're going to call them white and we're going to try to have another group be more successful. And so that I just kind of personalize it to you. Persians have benefited from the idea. Don't give me anything. Don't give me stuff. Just give me a chance.
The Charlie Kirk Show

And because of that, Persians or former Iranians are some of the wealthiest immigrant groups in the history of America.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
The way we did it was with a wide ranging over the top bill called the Civil Rights Act that has now created the prerequisite of what we now call woke. And so, for example, the Civil Rights Act is now being used to put men in female locker rooms.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
The Civil Rights Act is now being used to shut down people's business if they have a certain belief on one man, one woman marriage, saying that that is discrimination under the Civil Rights Act. So, of course, my perspective is it should be illegal to actively discriminate against somebody based on their skin color. That's not what the Civil Rights Act only did, though.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
That's one portion of the Civil Rights Act. There's nine or ten components that people don't even recognize or realize that effectively created this massive anti-racist, anti-racist is the term the left uses, monstrosity that is now being used for things that it was never intended for.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So, for example, that doesn't relate to a great, great question. So Merrick Garland recently, the attorney general of the United States, recently said that North Carolina and Georgia cannot have voter ID laws. So asking somebody to provide identification when they vote because it's a violation of the Civil Rights Act. Because they say that it disproportionately impacts black Americans.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So the issue with the Civil Rights Act is is not just the not just the action of being of racially segregating or of being racially insensitive or somebody. It is the impact. So if it impacts a certain group, therefore, it's also then called illegal under the Civil Rights Act. Does that make sense?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Well, of course, it was a mistake the way it was written. The intent was not. Yeah.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Yes, it was the way that it was written.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
But you have to judge the law as it is now. Right. So it's like saying, well, the law might have been good 20 years ago, but I'll give you another example. Right. So Joe Biden and thankfully this got overturned by a court. But previously he was using the Civil Rights Act saying that biological men who think they are women.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So what people would call trans women, but they're not women, are allowed into locker rooms under the Civil Rights Act. I mean, any civil rights leader back in the 60s did not march in Selma so that perverted men can go into, you know, women's locker rooms.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So one provision, I think, should have been passed. So one provision.

Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
I don't want to say. Okay. I'll put you down as a probably. But, no, you're talking about two different things. The Electoral College is different than ranked choice. Ranked choice voting is a way of saying that basically the first loser ends up advancing as the candidate, right? So are you in favor of a popular vote for president?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Yeah, I mean, where we've seen ranked choice voting employed is usually by liberals and Democrats in very, very red states. And they end up basically eliminating the Republican Party. That's a little bit more nuanced. But as far as the Electoral College goes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
I love the fact that Wisconsin is now one of the most important states in this election and that Wisconsin values and Wisconsin voters are going to have to be heard by both candidates and that it's not just the race in Los Angeles and New York City. Now, understand, yes, Wyoming has a lot of power, but so does Rhode Island and Hawaii, which are two blue states that are not as big. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So the beauty of the Electoral College is that it recognizes that America's system is different than Europe. It's different than most of the world. We are states first and then we are a national project. And therefore, the states need to have some form of representation in how we tabulate our votes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
And the beauty of the Electoral College is that the swing states think of how diverse these states are. Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin. If it was a pure popular vote, which I know you're not advocating for, it would all be about Seattle, Chicago, San Francisco, L.A., New York.

Well, so yes and no. I mean, the population of the Metroplex areas are more than half of the American population. So you're right. Anyone from Chicago? I'm from Chicago. I'm sure we got a lot of Chicagoans there, right? So we all know the difference between Chicago and Chicagoland, right? So Chicago land is nearly, I think, seven or eight million people where Chicago is three million people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
But I think you can agree at least we can agree the beauty of the Electoral College. And it does have some flaws. The beauty, though, is that it requires candidates to have to go to many different parts of the country and to earn support, not just go to the coastal cities. And the way it works in a lot of European elections is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
in the United Kingdom or in French election, not a good example because they have a parliamentary system, but like France, they just run up the score in Paris and they say, you know, forget it, you know, to the rules. I think it's a good thing that Wisconsin farmers have a say in this election. It gives Wisconsin a seat at the table. So thank you, man. Appreciate it. Thank you. Absolutely.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Thank you. Next question. Yes. I hope you guys can hear me. I'm doing the best we can.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Yeah. So the question is, first, is an animal a human? No. Okay, so does it therefore have rights? I mean, we already have rights for animals, for dogs, cats, and even for some farm animals. No, of course, but do you get First Amendment protections for your dog? Can your dog own a firearm, right? No. No, of course not. So it's not the same thing as a human.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Now, as a Christian, we're also not allowed to torture or to slaughter. That's in the Noahic covenant and repeatedly out the scriptures. We must be humane in our treatment of animals. But as far I don't know where you're coming out from this perspective, but some people would say that animals and humans are on the same moral plane. I don't think that's what you're saying. Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
However, there is a push, though, to say that we should no longer eat meat because it's bad for the life of animals. Right. We should do what's best for human beings, first and foremost. And it's good for human beings to eat meat. It's good for human beings to be able to eat animals.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
It's good for human beings to not just eat like this synthetic fake meat that Bill Gates wants to make all day long. And so, yeah, where do I stand on animal rights? I mean, I don't think any living being should be tortured or should be cruelly treated. At the same time, we should always do what's best for human beings and human beings first.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So, for example, when there's an environmental question, the question should first be what is best for the human species, not what's best for the trees or for the snake. Those things are important, but it's more important for humans. Does that answer your question? In part, it's okay if I have a little follow-up.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Well, we're allowed to kill dogs. That's not true. We have kill shelters for dogs, right? We also kill dogs that bite their owners and dogs with rabies, right? So if a human being gets rabies, what do we do? We treat the human. If a dog gets rabies... Unless there's like a miraculous treatment, which there usually isn't. Right. So you're right. The negative rights.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
We do have rights to be able to for better or worse, because we do not treat dogs and cats as the same moral level, because we as human beings have a soul. We have reason. We have the ability to make sense of the natural world. Dogs do not. Right. Dogs only have senses. They do not have reason. And so, for example, a dog cannot tell that it's a dog.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Now, there's some disagreement about that, but we as human beings can make sense of the natural world. We are the speaking beings, to say differently. But no animal should be mistreated. But to say that animals are not allowed to be killed would be, therefore, an argument against meat, correct? Right.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
And I'm not saying that's your position. I'm arguing against... Right. That's very unpopular probably at UW-Madison to get rid of bacon, right? So... Just guessing. Yeah.

And if you do not recognize that the Jewish people deserve a homeland and deserve a place to be able to exist and to build out their culture, then... it's hard to coexist.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
The Palestinian Authority, they do have self-government and governance over themselves. And that has not been enough. And they decided to launch a war against Israel on October 7th.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
But, yeah, the long term solution, in my opinion, is first and foremost, you must come from the belief that Israel has a right to exist. You don't have to like the Israeli government. But if you if you disagree with that, then there will not be a long term solution.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison

That is definitely a lesson we've learned from 2022 for sure.

Blow Up The Food Pyramid: Charlie at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
So if like Carrie Lake loses again in Arizona, does Turning Point have any blame for that? Well, of course, any blame? No, I mean, first of all, we're not running the Republican Party. We're an outside group that is one of the smaller outside groups. And I noticed you did not write an article against any of the other major super PACs that raise four or five times the sums that we do.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Yes, you can get a picture. I'm going to come and do a bunch of pictures in a sec. Well, not in a sec, but let's do some questions. Who disagrees or who wants to? Yeah. Can I have a MAGA hat? Are you going to vote for Trump?

Hey everybody, it's the Charlie Kirk Show. We're here live from the Bitcoin.com studio. Senator Schmidt joins us for an instant analysis on what is happening with the budget resolution, spending cuts and more. I explain how President Trump could be messing up the tariff issue if he was doing something opposite, which of course he is not.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
In this free eight-lecture course, you'll learn from Hillsdale College president Larry Arnn as he goes in depth on four novels, 1984, Brave New World, Darkness at Noon, and That Hideous Strength. I love all four. Even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 40s, they're highly relevant today as they show what a tyrannical government does to human nature.
The Charlie Kirk Show

He's super sharp and a great friend.

A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Yesterday, there was some breaking news. The House passed the budget resolution. What is that? And within the budget resolution, were there details of no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or was that just the precursor to be able to now get into those negotiations? Senator, please explain.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Alex, one of the things that we did not cover because I've been too busy going on these campuses across the country is the cabinet meeting. I do want to play some piece of tape here from the cabinet meeting and then get your take of this group of all-stars and rock stars. I'm just going to pick one of the kind of cabinet meeting, let's just say highlights. Let's pick this one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Bobby Kennedy saying by hopefully September, we will know what is causing the autism epidemic. Huge claim. Hope it's right. Play cut 249.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
That is just one of many promises made. Alex, you're the editor-in-chief of Breitbart.com. What is your take on this all-star cabinet meeting? The floor is yours.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
So every so often I'll get, let's just say, a little bit of a pompous brat on campus that says, you know, Charlie, it's been 75 days and Trump isn't fulfilling his promises, which is just a ridiculous, ludicrous thing to say. These are people that honestly exist to be disagreeable and they have nothing better to do. I mean, look, you can have well-intentioned feedback.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
But to say that President Trump's not fulfilling his promises is one of the most meritless of all of them. And by the way, these are criticisms from the right, just to be perfectly clear. These are not criticisms from the left. Yes, absolutely. But we have a secure border. We've seen massive tariffs, obviously. We're seeing the deportation effort.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
I want to see even more of what we've already seen. What is your take? I think that criticism is so ludicrous and ridiculous. And it is a minority, without a doubt. I don't think that's there. But I do want to make sure that we keep the encouragement on. I don't want to say the pressure on. We should keep the encouragement on on the administration to stay the course.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
to keep on reminding themselves why they are there and what they promised the American people to do.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
So Alex, I wanna now get to this, which is the geopolitical implications of the Panama Canal. Let's play cut 179.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
And a lesser reported element yesterday, Alex, was that Panama has now allowed the U.S. to deploy troops to the canal. The document signed by top security officials from both countries allows U.S. military personnel to deploy to Panama-controlled facilities for training, exercise, and a range of other activities.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio have done a phenomenal job where Panama is inviting the United States. Because deep down, I think Panama does not want the Chinese Communist Party controlling this thoroughfare and this choke point. Your thoughts, Alex?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
And we must understand, America built the Panama Canal. America built the Panama Canal. And we lost many lives. It was Jimmy Carter, right, Blake, that gave it back to Panama? And yes, we lost 5,600 workers. You might say, how did we lose so many people? Primarily due to mosquito-borne diseases, actually. That was the number one reason why we lost so many people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
It was mosquito-borne diseases that the American workers got while building Panama. the Panama Canal. We liberated Panama itself to build it. Panama was a part of Colombia. And so we actually liberated Panama from Colombia, lost over 5,600 people And just to be perfectly clear, I believe that is more than died on 9-11. And 5,600 is just about as much as I believe died in Iraq.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Again, I'm just approximating from some memory. But some people say as much as 30,000 workers died by the time they came back home because of diseases. And think about that. And we just handed it to our greatest enemy, the Chinese Communist Party. Again, I'm probably lowballing some of these numbers, but that's a conservative estimate.

That's well said. One of the other things that we need to do, and I want the Trump administration to push for, is radically cut down the number of jobs you need a college degree to fill. Encourage companies to replace them with standardized tests, practical exams, or thorough in-person interviews, or internships to jobs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
a lot of that went away because of DEI issues that, oh, practical exams are racist or whatever. Basically, the government said it was too racist to require a test to work somewhere, but not to require a degree. I believe DEI is the hidden regulation that has been strangling American business. And I think that DEI could be responsible for one, 2% of GDP growth over a couple of years if we keep it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
I know that might sound extreme. I know people might laugh at that, but DEI is definitionally, an anti-growth initiative. Alex, final thoughts here about a minute remaining.

A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
So, Senator, one question I have, I agree, the amount of money we are borrowing is extraordinary. I mean, it is as if it's when COVID happened, we decided to just put back all of our monetary or fiscal, I And we have decided to basically embrace the cheap money guzzle. However, Senator, there are rumors that we might increase the Department of Defense budget to a trillion dollars.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Where do you anticipate these spending cuts coming from? I'm all for a big and mighty military. However, first and foremost, I think the greatest threat to our national security is our national debt, not even any existential foe. So build out where you think some of these cuts will come.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
More broadly, I know that you have to keep your cards close to your chest, but if we're talking about an increase in the defense budget, where else can these cuts come from?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
So I now want to get into the tariff aftermath. I mean, you come from a state that has a lot of ag and a lot of once mighty industry and also a fair amount of exporting and international business. How are your major industries in Missouri thinking about these tariffs?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
And what is your message to some of the audience that might be a little worried that tariffs might mean higher prices and that we might have a little bit of economic uncertainty coming down the next couple of months?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Senator Schmidt, we are out of time. Thank you for your leadership, and we will be talking to you soon. Please keep the pressure on your Senate colleagues for massive and real spending cuts, and we need money for border security. So you've got to reconcile those two things, no pun intended, during this reconciliation package. Thank you so much, Senator. Really appreciate it.

We are seeing interest rates plummeting. We're also seeing oil prices plummeting. Deregulation is happening. We need to get rid of so much of the nonsensical Biden era deregulation. Sometimes people say, Charlie, what do you disagree with President Trump on? I don't even know if this is a disagreement.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
President Trump will famously said, well, for every one new regulation, we have to get rid of two regulations. I think you shouldn't add any new regulations and get rid of five, six, seven thousand lines of regulation. Who says you have to add new ones?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Just slash these ridiculous, nonsensical rules that are on the regulatory book that make it harder for businesses to be able to operate, to hire and deploy capital. Maria Bartiromo says this perfectly, that we are seeing a decrease in oil prices, which you are going to feel at the pump in the next two weeks.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
We are seeing interest rates go down, which by the end of the year, we might see a significant cut in rates, which will help first-time homebuyers. Play cut 130.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Now, I have to further explain the contrast what President Trump is doing with tariffs versus what someone like Bernie Sanders would do with tariffs. And it's an incredibly important distinction. Let's say it was Bernie Sanders who once supported tariffs and in a tepid way says, yeah, you know, we'll do tariffs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
The difference is that if President Bernie Sanders, God save us from such a thing, would do tariffs, he would create a domestic control socialist economy. What President Trump is doing is incredibly unique. is that he is doing tariffs while liberating the American market economy. It's exactly the right ingredient. So tariffs are trade barriers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
However, you can avoid a tariff by making products here. One of the reasons why we've been falling behind on manufacturing is because it's so hard to build new factories. And one of the greatest regulations of all is DEI. I believe DEI is the silent regulation that is an albatross around the neck of corporate America. DEI makes us less competitive. It makes us less entrepreneurial.

The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
It makes us take less risks. It prioritizes equity and Racial parody or racial preferences over excellence. And you must choose. DEI is like the silent regulation that was written into every single corporate handbook by soft corporate and soft cultural decree post COVID.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
floydapalooza it was more about outcomes over opportunity and not even about outcomes it was honestly about a very perverted tribal racial preference doctrine that was force-fed into corporate america so what president trump is attempting to do is liberate the american economy through massive tax cuts deregulation energy boom while having trade barriers and that mixture
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Again, we don't know, but you must remember people voted for this. I would have grave concerns about tariffs. If President Trump was talking about massive tax increases, more regulation, more government programs, more government redistribution and tariffs, because then why would anyone want to do business here?
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
What President Trump is doing is he's making it more appealing to invest while also having a penalty to not invest.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
he's doing both those things he's making the penalty to not invest be higher because we are the world's consumer we are the premier consumer economy on the planet every country desires to be a consumer economy every country wants to be a consumer economy we have achieved that we also now want to go back to be an industrial economy and here's the little secret it's so much easier
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
to rebuild an industrial sector, then suddenly become a consumer economy. Because in order to become a consumer economy, you must be insanely rich. Very few countries are insanely rich. And China can't be a consumer economy. internationally, they can't domestically because they don't want other countries stuff to be sold in their country. Well, more for us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A Big Beautiful Bill + A Bright Future Ahead
Being a consumer economy is not necessarily bad. What is bad is also not being a production economy. If you are both, you are a superpower the likes of which the world has never seen. And we can get that back. So President Trump doing tariffs plus domestic supply side market boom economics. Perfect combination. History, economics, the great works of literature.

Yeah, it's no question. Thank you so much. Charlie, thank you very much. Absolutely. Great to spend time with you. Stay safe, everybody. Or as I should say, live safe. We see it all the time when I visit college campuses. Young adults demonize the concept of free markets and think government is the solution to every problem. How do we change this?
The Charlie Kirk Show

So for pastors that are here that they sometimes will hear from their congregation, don't talk about politics, don't talk about politics, are you able to speak freely the gospel in Australia? Yes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
In Australia, can you give a sermon that says homosexuality is a sin?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
And everyone understand, when people say don't get involved in politics, that's a political decision there in Australia. The failure to get involved in politics is politics will eventually get involved with you and come to your church.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
And so that's a heavy truth for some pastors to hear because they say, but I only do the gospel. I don't touch politics. How would you respond to an American pastor that would say that?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
And so it's not lethal. So let's just say you're living at home alone. Right. You're always worried about personal safety. You have a real firearm in the back of your mind. You're like, boy, I don't know if I actually ever want to be responsible for killing somebody. God forbid. I mean, that gun is there if someone comes after in that kind of force.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
who was a Luciferian, for the record. That's a whole separate topic. But it's a dominant point of view, and that's why Jensen Franklin and this church deserve such credit for hosting an event like this, because the majority of American churches stayed silent during this last election. They refused to speak out or even celebrate the reversal of Roe versus Wade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
And we need to look at our friends in the Anglosphere in Australia as a cautionary tale, everybody. Now, you are far more secular in Australia than we are in America.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
Well, I think it was by about a half of an inch, if you ask me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
And there's so many takeaways here, everybody. This is a warning sign. The other thing I want to emphasize, Andrew, and you are very open to speak about this, is the rise of Islam in the West. Islam is taking over all of Europe.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
And to be honest, and this is one thing I hope the American church is ready, you are going to lose more and more of young men, especially black young men, to Islam if you don't understand how this – you can call it a religion, whatever you want – is so predatory towards communities because it is the inverse of – Hyper-feminist, well, yes, but it's also even worse than that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
It's the exact opposite of hyper-feminized Western culture because it comes across as a hyper-masculine, patriarchal approach.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
So talk about the genesis of this remarkable product.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
I wish every hand would go up. The fact that not every hand went up is really alarming.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
Yeah, that's why young men don't want to go to your church if you don't know who that is.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
It's the number one piece of feedback I hear of why young men are joining the Catholic Church or becoming Muslim or at all. They say it's way too feminine. And I agree. I think the American church has become way too feminine.

But this is a very important point. Because Islam will be spread by two ways. Through the importation of Muslims into your country. Or the spread of... Lower income, predominantly minority men. White men don't tend to gravitate towards Islam as much.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
But in the black community, we saw the flirtation with radical Islam in the 1960s and early 70s with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Cassius Clay, who became Muhammad Ali. And then it was Lou Alcindor who then became Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. And then, of course, Malcolm X. That has plateaued, but I think we're going to see a resurgence. Would you agree with that? Yeah, this is very important.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
In Europe, we see this happening right now, that lower-income minority men are joining mosques way more predominantly. Churches are nothing more than museums and husks of their former selves.

I'll give you the answer. The answer is because we as Christians have had empathy weaponized by the left and have our own Christ-like inclinations then used against us in a suicidal way because we're being taken advantage of. That's exactly what is happening. Thank you. Thank you.

The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
That thing hurts. Don't even point it at you. I know. I treat it like it's a loaded gun at all times.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
I don't know if you saw that earlier, but I was very careful about that. Treat every gun like it's loaded.

Yeah, and so can I just have the weapon? So the other positive is that if someone sees this, they might think it's an actual firearm, correct?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Is "Mohammedanism" Compatible with the West?
Oh, yeah. Because I don't think AR-15s are abundant in Cape Cod. No.
The Charlie Kirk Show

You can't buy a rifle. But that goes to show for our blue state friends, if you're in New York, if you are in – New York City is its own problem, right? Right. But if you are in New York State, if you're in California, if you're in Washington – This is something you should get. Illinois.

Okay. I just said you have a great future. I think you got a great future. Okay.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
That was the Slotkin seat, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
I know you. Charlie, good to see you. Good man. I can't see you back there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Courageous guy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
I think Steve Hilton is thinking of running. I like Steve a lot.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And I think Steve would be really interesting to look at if he decides to run. He's a great patriot. And I think he's dynamic enough to be able to make it close. I mean, the likelihood of winning back the governor's race in one year is low, but California moved the most to the right of any state in the country in 2024. It was the most to the right of any state. And...
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Look, you've got to go county by county. Here's my best piece of advice for Californians is, guys, win back the Orange County congressional seats and then go out from there because it's local and also national impact that helps us grow our majority, which obviously leadership only cares about. But honestly, we want to try to get those Democrats out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
But California is a long-term project, and I think it's possible, maybe 10 years, 15 years. Think of it this way. If you improve California to be one point more Republican for the next 15 years, it becomes a red state. And you say, oh, that's too far out. That's what the Democrats have done to us. That's what they did to Colorado, okay?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
They said, okay, if we just win by one and a half points for 10, you know, lose less by one and a half points for 10 years, and now Colorado is super, super deep blue. Honestly, that's what Byron did and everyone in Florida. Florida used to be a battleground state. You're like, hey, every year, we're just going to make it two points redder. And now you guys are winning races by like 17 points.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And I'll say this. I think that California has this amazing opportunity thanks to President Trump. And hear me out. We had Tom Holman here yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
I think all of a sudden when the people of California start to see San Francisco get a little bit cleaner and illegals start to leave their communities and they can thank Republicans for that, I think there's an opportunity to really move people to the right because there will be a before and after picture of when the federal government comes in and starts this mass deportation force in California, which will happen.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
and these communities start getting liberated, I think there's a great opportunity there to seize on that, lean in on it, and win California back for Republicans. As we step into 2025, the one thing is clear. D-dollarization is accelerating. China and the other BRICS nations are determined to reduce their dependence on the U.S. dollar and establish themselves as global economic superpowers.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds

The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
So help me understand, and I'm not trying to get you in any trouble, but mismanagement by who? The leadership team. In the House of Representatives? In the House, yeah. Is it fair to say, again, I don't want to name any names, but like, you know who. Is it fair to say, though, that this was negotiated in private over a course of six weeks? Is that right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Well, yeah, first of all, I don't know if you got arrested, but hopefully all of them get pardons. So yeah, we got to get pardons for all those guys.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Thank you. And Louisiana, we're going to get rid of Bill Cassidy sometime soon. Don't worry. So, yes, next question.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And on top of that, I'm pushing the incoming administration to do a major whistleblower protection program. So all the whistleblowers of the Biden administration can come forward and blow the whistle. We have time for one more question.

You're learning about the bill from the media.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
So we know as much as you know, basically.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Yeah, just from a process standpoint, let alone the actual result, which we all know is garbage, just how it works for six weeks. I mean, you're a very well-respected member of the body. You're not even involved, I mean, let alone notified. And you're learning from CNN that we're going to go give money to biolabs or something? Yeah. Yeah. Look, I'm going to tell you this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
That is even worse than I had like the lowest possible opinion of Congress. That's worse than I could have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Again, I feel free to just kind of take the fifth. Does that mean a personnel change? I'm not going to comment on that. Yeah, okay. That's fine. Yeah, okay. No, it's – I invoke my Fifth Amendment rights to – Well, look. Well, look. Let me – No, no.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
I don't fault anyone for voting for the final version of this thing, which I still think was not the desirable outcome. But help me understand just the process side of it because you've been amazing, Byron. He's so great. He fights every day. He's just been terrific. Thank you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And help me understand, though, why Congress did not just work through Christmas and do 10 or 12 appropriation bills and just said, hey, nurses have to work on Christmas Eve. Airline pilots have to work on Christmas. We're not entitled to a Christmas vacation while the country is being screwed up. We're just going to work all the way through until January 3rd.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
If we have to shut down the government for a couple days, we will. It seems as if there's like this lifestyle sense of urgency that we are so entitled to a Christmas vacation. We just need to kind of vote for this because we have no other option. Help me understand that you guys should still be there for all intents and purposes. I agree. Hammering this thing out, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Yeah, there could have been a CR until the 27th, though. Right? We could have done a continued resolution so you guys get a Christmas vacation, go breathe. But we're not going to fund the government. Because, by the way, a CR should be like five sentences, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

January is here. Can you believe it? How are you doing with your new year's resolutions? Mine was pretty easy to focus on my wellbeing. And we all know the foundation of wellbeing is a good night's sleep. So if I could do just one thing to improve my sleep and overall wellbeing, it is taking the number one mineral for that, which helps me personally on so many levels. I can't even describe it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Yes, I'm talking about magnesium. Actually, I'm talking about magnesium breakthrough by BiOptimizers. The seven different forms of magnesium in the supplement are involved in over 600 different biochemical reactions in the body. Pretty much every function in your body gets upgraded when you take magnesium, from the quality of your sleep to your brain function, from metabolism to stress levels.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And let's face it, even if your 2025 resolution is not to focus on your health, as it is mine, how are you going to be able to achieve all your goals without quality sleep and stress management support, really? So do yourself a favor and make Magnesium Breakthrough part of your daily routine this year so you can get the vitality you need to conquer your dreams.

The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Again, I don't want to overemphasize on this, but I think it's so important. Byron, the excuse was in June or July, it's an election year, so we can't do anything controversial during an election year. Well, what in the fresh hell is their excuse right now?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And I just look, everybody wants something in life. Everybody fears something in life. And you have to find the combination of those two things. Right. What does Senate – this is a general thing, not a personnel question because it's all the same. You can replace the speaker. It's interchangeable parts. So if you get rid of Johnson, you might just have someone who's the same.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And it might be a good idea. It might not be. The point being is that what does the average House leader want and what do they fear most? What do they want most and what do they fear most? Psychoanalyze to me those people because it's a mystery.

Yeah, I mean, that's sick, actually. What you fear most is losing our country, obviously. That's our drive. What we love most and what we want most is to save the country. Okay, so I think we've gone through that. Are you hopeful that this—I mean, look, President Trump—this is why President Trump is so successful, because of garbage like this, because he's an insurgent against all this stuff.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Do you think that we'll be able, with President Trump's incoming mandate, the bully pulpit, the political power that he has, the ability to snap a finger, he could remove a member of Congress literally through a primary campaign? Do you think this will change with President Trump taking office on January 20th? Some of it will.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
And I want to get to questions because you're tight on time here. Byron is very talented. You made money before you went into Congress. You had a great business career, all that stuff. There's so many people that go into Congress, though, they have a substandard skill set where this is like the biggest thing they'll ever do. So they never want to let it go. And for them, this is like the dream.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
You don't have to work. You have a bunch of people serving you all the time. They call you congressman. You kind of act important. And so they never want to lose that thing because for them that is a way over accomplishment giving their skill set, like a way over accomplishment.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Next Generation of MAGA Heroes — Exclusive Interview with Rep. Byron Donalds
Victory feels good. Amen. So I want to talk about the election, what happened, but I've been running an event, running all over the place. Can you explain what happened during this last week with the CR? Just help us make sense of all that because it's so confusing just as we're trying to run our lives.

The Chinese Communist Party, that is a real enemy. First, we've got to clean up our hemisphere. Panama, back to America. Canada, I don't know. I'm not there yet. Maybe Alberta. That's about it. Greenland, we were there yesterday or the day before yesterday. That one's already in motion. Greenland, what are the Danes going to do? Send us a strongly worded letter.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
President Trump says Greenland is going to be ours. What are they going to do? Type up a, no, this is a bad idea. Yeah, great. Okay. Why don't you go access your nuclear arsenal, Denmark? Oh, you don't have one? Got it. It's in the Western Hemisphere. Why is it part of Denmark? Never should be. It's time that we consolidate power in the North American hemisphere.
The Charlie Kirk Show

Liz, walk us through this breaking news regarding Derek Chauvin and the situation around George Floyd. It's a chilling breaking news.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Can you refresh our audience, and you had the movie Fall of Minneapolis, of all of the protocol that wasn't fallen in the criminal prosecution of Derek Chauvin?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
This is amazing. So if you win this case, is there any hope of reopening the Chauvin case itself?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Goodness gracious, Adam, I'm so sorry to hear that. And thank you for taking the time in the midst of all of this unspeakable horror. How are you thinking about this, and how can you explain it to somebody who is having difficulty comprehending how the Los Angeles city government in California refuses to do basic things that could prevent such widespread scale of destruction?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
I mean, if we just look at the civilizational importance, can you speak to how this was not just a single act? This particular incident was extrapolated to be like the greatest injustice ever. Since I mean, I can't even think of since the assassination of Martin Luther King. Right. I mean, and yet there's so much mystery around it still.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
What questions do we still have remaining regarding the events that day that we still haven't been able to get an answer?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Has Minneapolis recovered? since the June of 2020? Has Minneapolis come back to how it was in that previous spring? Not even how it was 10 years ago, but has Minneapolis restored itself to how it was, let's say, in April of 2020?

I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier. So why is Big Pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a Big Pharma bottom line. PhD changes the way you think about food. They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule. You'll learn to quiet cravings and finally release the unhealthy belly fat. You won't be hungry and you'll never take medication.

There was a pretty amazing moment that happened today at Jimmy Carter's funeral where you had everything wrong with American politics and Surrounding the solution you had in one shot. I don't know if we'll see this again. You had Barack Hussein Obama.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
You had Al Gore. You had President Trump surrounded in every possible direction. You had George Bush. You had Bill Clinton. You had Hillary Clinton. The lip reader says this. Lip reader reveals Donald Trump told Obama they will, quote, find a quiet place to discuss matter of importance at Jimmy Carter funeral. Ooh, that's very dramatic, isn't it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
They know that they're lip reading, that their lips are being read here. What do you guys think? Let's put this up. Let's put 134. Hey, for all the people that are mad about me at the sign reading thing, maybe they can help us out here. Because I said we've got to get these emergency alerts with all the signs. It's just a distraction. So maybe they can help here. What is Trump saying?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
By the way, there's Doug and Kamala Harris and Barbara Bush. Is it Barbara? No, it's Laura Bush. Not Barbara Bush. Laura Bush. And you just look. You see how much damage the collective group of people has done to the country. And you realize they're actually not in control.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
that everybody except Donald Trump on that screen is controlled by an unelected shadow government deep state, that they're just a figurehead for the administrative state. They're a figurehead for the bureaucracy. But President Trump standing right there is a unique phenomenon. He is a vessel for the citizenry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
He's a representative for the people, an insurgent against the imperial regime that has existed. That's a great shot, Andrew. Let's put that up. Here you got the whole cast of no good characters here. Look at this. By the way, where's Dick Cheney? That one would have just topped it off. And where's Michelle Obama? Why did Barack come alone? I was born in 1993.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Every single person who has been president since 1993 is pictured here. So you got Bill Clinton, got Hillary Clinton, you got George Bush, you got Barack Obama, and it was supposed to be Hillary Clinton again, but Donald Trump disrupted it all. He will go down in the legend books, in the history books, for just that. All of these other maniacs have overseen the destruction of our country.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
One by one. Both parties. And Donald Trump said, stop it. This is a bad idea. Donald Trump is the rebellion against all of their damage to this country. No more neoliberal imperialist wars. No more adventurism overseas. We're going to stop the invasion. No more apologizing for our greatness. No more bending a knee to our enemies.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
This is the dark night of the soul for the Uniparty, is what this is. And Donald Trump is such an exception. And it also just goes to show what frauds Barack Hussein Obama is. Oh, Donald Trump is Hitler. Meanwhile, he's chatting it up with Hitler, I guess, at the funeral. So chummy. They didn't believe any of the nonsense that they were trying to tell the American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Look, I would actually have respect if they were like, we're not going to Carter's funeral because Donald Trump is the greatest thing ever. And if 2017 was marked by the resistance, 2025 is the acquiescence. He just wore them out. It isn't that complicated, everybody. He just wore them down. And they're just like... How much more do we have to deal with this Trump guy? Just get it over with.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Trump won. He outlasted us. He got shot. He got indicted. 700 years in federal prison. New York civil case. And deep down, I think Barack Hussein Obama really madly respects Donald Trump. I don't think he likes him. I think he's annoyed by him. But I think he's like, man, that guy's got game. I think deep down, Barack's like, this guy is superhuman.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
I think deep down, you can just kind of tell that Barack Obama's like, man, this guy is a baller. This guy's as good as it gets. He'll never say it. He'll never whisper it. But you can deep down, Barack is like, man, this guy, after everything that we've thrown at him, a generational talent. And we've got to be honest, Barack Obama is as well. It takes one to know one.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
All those other people are largely low IQ basement dweller dog catchers. Barack Obama is a legit generational talent. Clinton is fine, but you've got some really unimpressive people there. Kamala Harris, Hillary. Obama has real talent. The two most talented people there are Trump and Obama. And deep down, I think Obama has a lot more respect for Trump than he'll ever let on.

So, Adam, I want to play this piece of tape here from a congressional testimony you gave. It's 121, where you explained how you wanted to be a firefighter. Play cut 121.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
It's Adam. It's almost hard to believe. And now in Los Angeles, it's not a joke. I mean, it is a joke. There are three fire chiefs that are all named Kristen and they are all lesbian. It's very hard to even comprehend that, that are in charge of the Los Angeles fire response. Do you think part of this lackluster ability to handle this is because of embracing these ideologies over meritocracy?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Adam, do you think I know this is a speculative question. I know that you're in a lot of pain right now and that it's it's difficult to think clearly in times like this. So, again, thank you for taking the time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
But for some of your friends and neighbors that have been, let's say, more enthusiastically, let's just say zealots for the worldview that we are talking about here, is this a wake-up call when your entire neighborhood starts to burn down?

That is incredibly deep and profound. And I live in Scottsdale, Adam. We are anticipating a lot of refugees after this because there's just not a lot of – there's not going to be a lot of homes standing. Adam, in closing here, I know that you might not have anticipated this question. Feel free to answer it however you'd like. Last night I spoke to Sue Prager, wife of Dennis Prager.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Dennis is still in a very serious medical condition. Is there anything you want to share about Dennis, your friendship with him, as Dennis still is in a very precarious situation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
It's so profound what you're saying and deep. I was listening to an old fireside chat of where Dennis was speaking about Charles Krauthammer the day that I heard the news. It's just, it really is something. Adam, thank you so much, and we'll continue to pray for Dennis and for the people of the Palisades and Los Angeles.

I am very, I'm proud of my secret keeping abilities. I think it's pretty good because this one I wanted to talk about so badly. I was like, oh, this is the greatest idea ever. And so I pulled up my maps here, and you think about it, it doesn't make any sense. Why is it that the body of water that most borders our country is called the Gulf of Mexico? Where did that come from?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Blake could probably tell us where it came from. It doesn't make any sense. So President Trump announced at the press conference that it will now be called the Gulf of America. Which, by the way, more of our coastline borders this Gulf than Mexico. Why not? He's not the first to suggest that allegedly, but again, he's going to be the first to do it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
This is a small example of the type of energy that is now coming back to the country. We're tired of being taken advantage of. And yes, it might be a little silly thing, but it's deathly serious. It borders our country more than your country. The Gulf of Mexico got its name in the 1540s, according to the Texas State Historical Association.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Spanish explorers and cartographers often called it Seno Mexicano, Seno meaning Gulf or Bay. Some documents also called the body of water Golfo de Nueva España or Golfo de Mexico. Anyone can propose a geographic name and change it to the U.S. Board of Geographic Names. The president has authority to change it the same way that Barack Obama changed Mount McKinley to Denali.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
By the way, we're going back to Mount McKinley. Denali, I think, is done. I think the president has said that one before. That's ridiculous. 57, it's going to be the Gulf of America. This is in Spanish. This is the Mexican government speaking about the Gulf of Mexico, play cut 130.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
What is she saying? She wants to name our country Mexican America? Look, the Mexican government is going to have to get in line at some point. We could break the back of the Mexican government with a terror threat overnight, and it wouldn't even hurt us. The Mexican government better let us go after the cartels, stop the human trafficking, the drug smuggling.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
The Mexican government has been complicit these last couple of years of the largest invasion in American history. And so, no, we're not going to call it the Gulf of Mexico anymore, as Mexico has allowed tens of thousands of sex slaves to come into our country. And by the way, all those military bases, why don't we fix those while we're at it?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Getting back to Fort Bragg, get back to the original naming of these military bases. We need to de-wokify the country. And it will now be called the Gulf of America. And you make it makes you wonder why is no other president thought of this before? And it's important because other presidents are afraid of tough fights and offending like George W. Bush. What good did he do as president?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
Actually, he was a terrible president. Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden. They would never think to do something like this. They need some sort of board or commission or council of experts. President Trump said we're going to call it the Gulf of America. And Mexico better take back their invaders. Look, these countries, you're afraid of offending Mexico. I'm sorry.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
We'll play that in a second. But it's a very troubling day. Adam Carolla, welcome to the program. Adam, are you and your family safe?
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
I'm afraid that we're losing tens of thousands of our own citizens to drugs coming from Mexico. I don't care if we offend Mexico. You guys are a poor, small country. You have no say in these matters. You guys have been poisoning our land for too long with drugs, with cartel members, and guns. You guys are one of the most murderous, bloody countries on the planet. Playtime is over.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The Scale of Destruction in California ft. Adam Carolla
The Mexican economy is reliant on us for survival. Same thing with Denmark. What negotiating power does Denmark have? Yes, the great power of Denmark. Ooh, the Danish Navy, so scary. Or the Mexican army, ooh. Look, buckle up. The American Renaissance is about to launch, and the attitude is this. Lead, follow, or get out of the way. We have real enemies.

Hey everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk Show, Mark Halperin and Brooke Rollins joins the show as we talk about the Democrat Party in disarray, why are the prices of eggs so high, and what is going on with ActBlue. ActBlue, the fundraising powerhouse of the Democrat Party, is in near collapse.

If you are a private student loan debt borrower, listen carefully. Great patriots here. Private student loan debt in the U.S. totals about $300 billion.

So, Mark, I want to get your reaction to Hakeem Jeffries kind of being a little frozen when he was asked yesterday about the Gavin Newsom situation. Now, what's interesting to me is that Gavin's team seemed to not give a little memo or a heads up to Democrat leadership that this was coming. And I think that's important. There wasn't someone working the phones.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Hey, Hakeem, just want to let you know it's going to make national headlines. It was as if Gavin said it. Because understand, this was not a live interview. They had a 36-hour lead time.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
I said the number on air because I remembered it because I had the dinner the day before. The amount of money these universities receive in overhead with grants is hundreds of millions. I think it's like $130 million a year that University of Pennsylvania receives. For years, the Democrats have had a suspicious fundraising advantage.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
And with a 36-hour lead time, they very well could have been a good party man, like a good company man, picked up the phones, worked it, and they would have had a little workshop thing and all the tensions would have gone. Instead, he kind of played into the ambush. Let's play this piece of tape here. Play 224.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
OK, it's a completely unrelated. I have no idea what that means. I mean, sorry, Mark, react.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Yeah. Or just to say a completely unrelated statement. I mean, I don't think anyone is pushing sexual predators on girls. I just it's like it's a completely unrelated statement. Mark, I'm going to go back to a op ed written by James Carville. And I know this came up in my Gavin Newsom discussion where he basically argued that Democrats should do a strategic retreat or rollover and play dead.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
For years, the Democrats have enjoyed a nonstop flow of money from an organization called ActBlue. Now, ActBlue operates as a fundraising powerhouse that is a pseudo payment processor. So if you are a Democrat donor and you want to give money to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or to Gavin Newsom or to whomever, you have an ActBlue account.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
He argued that the Democrats best move right now is allow Trump's numbers to get soft and this whole thing is going to fall apart and then we will strike. What do you make of that? This is the New York Times piece right here. James Carville, it's time for a daring political maneuver. Nothing that we can do. Play possum and allow it to kind of pass over. What is your take on this?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Has this ever worked in recent American modern politics? Is this a playbook that has been proven to work?

Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
So the state of the Republican Party seems as if we have plenty of momentum moving forward. Any of the fault lines seem to be smoothed over, and there is large unity behind the president and the administration.

So there's a lot of attention right now on the Department of Agriculture and kind of the mess that Joe Biden left you. The thing that is a talking point of the Democrats and to be fair, a reality a lot of Americans are experiencing is the price of eggs. Separate fact from fiction. Why is it that egg prices have gone up so dramatically and what is the plan to bring those prices down?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Now, Republicans have an equivalent wind red, but it just pales in comparison. However, there's something very weird happening at ActBlue. James O'Keefe has done a lot of reporting to ActBlue and found that some of the addresses didn't always correlate with donors. There's a congressional investigation into ActBlue, and more and more people are calling into a criminal investigation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
And so I don't want to oversimplify it, but a bunch of chickens were killed, like 100 million, and therefore it restricts the supply and the demand stays the same. And so the price goes up. Is that somewhat of a fair summation?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Now, we have said many times here on this program that the cash advantage that Democrats have enjoyed via ActBlue is highly suspicious. Some people hypothesize, is this money coming from overseas? Is this money coming from Iran or China? We don't know, but we do know that ActBlue does not require the CCV numbers, the number on the back of a credit card, which is supposed to diminish fraud.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
So speaking more broadly, educate our audience about the duties and the responsibilities, all about what the Department of Agriculture does. People just think of it as, you know, kind of corn or soybeans. It's a lot more than that. Kind of give us a little insight into your portfolio.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
So let's also talk about tariffs. And I know there's a lot of back and forth on this. And by the way, the American people voted for tariffs and they want tariffs. My phone, my phone was lighting up like a Christmas tree. I'm sure yours was from farmers and ranchers and people that are great folks. You know, hey, what's going on? Are we able to sell our product? We'll import our product.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
How are you guys thinking about this at the Department of Agriculture?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Without requiring a CCV number, it is a lot easier to be able to steal credit card information, put up fake credit cards, and pump a lot of money into the American political system. Well, right now, ActBlue is falling apart. You got to wonder why. ActBlue, the Democrat fundraising powerhouse, faces internal chaos, New York Times writes.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
So critically important. Secretary Rollins, it's nice to say that. Anything else that you on your kind of front vision, things you're dealing with, you want our audience to be aware of? And what are your asks out of Congress with this big budget bill?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
What are some needs that you see waste to cut elimination, you know, doge up the food stamps where you're going to be going to Congress and say, hey, here are my big asks?

At least seven senior officials have left the group, setting off deep concerns about its future as it confronts scrutiny from congressional Republicans. And it won't just be congressional Republicans. If members of Congress end up sending criminal referrals to Kash Patel, I bet the FBI is going to go after them as well. More than $16 billion is has passed through ActBlue in 20 years.

Let me say that again. $16 billion has pumped through Democrat ActBlue in the last 20 years. We don't know where all this money is coming from, but now ActBlue is starting to close its doors, not officially, but they are collapsing from within. There are so many nuggets of this article. I could do an entire hour-long show on this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
Quote, if Act Blue were to become severely diminished, Democrats running for offices at levels of all government could face setbacks significant in their efforts to raise cash. Candidates for offices ranging from school boards and city council to presidency rely on the platform for online fundraising. While Republicans have spent years trying to catch up, we have not caught up on this game.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
The highest ranking legal official at ActBlue, as well as the assistant research director, the chief revenue officer and engineer who spent 16 years building and maintaining ActBlue's infrastructure have all left.

They said, quote, Zion Ahmed, who is the last remaining lawyer in the ActBlue general counsel's office, wrote an internal Slack message on February 26th that his access to his email and other internal platforms has been cut off and that other messages he posted in Slack have been deleted, according to screenshots obtained by the New York Times.

Mr. Ahmed is now on leave from ActBlue, according to a person briefed on the group's staffing. Quote, please be advised that we have an anti-retaliation whistleblower policies for a reason, Mr. Ahmed wrote. Whoa. Congressional investigations are only going to heat up. There might be criminal investigations to follow. Is the Democrat ATM closing? Is the easy money gravy train coming to an end?

What do you make? Let's just posit that he probably is running for president. I think he is. I think he's incredibly ambitious about the shift on the trans issue and the pushback and the blowback that he's receiving for kind of pivoting on the transition. I actually don't think it's genuine because he has actions he could take.

Well, educate the audience on this, though. What was the context? Why is that an important reference point?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Did Gavin Newsom Start A Dem Civil War? + The ActBlue Implosion
So does it say something more broader about our politics, that the attitude is going to the center right, that Democrats are going to have to concede on some of the more unpopular issues? Is it Gavin Newsom that is seeing the trend and he wants to be a little ahead of it? What does that say more broadly about where the direction, the momentum of how people view political matters goes right now?

Oren, what is your take on President Trump's tariff announcements? But even more broadly, let's start with why are tariffs a good idea for the United States of America to implement?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
What do you have to say to critics that will say, well, tariffs are a tax and it will raise prices on everyday American middle class consumers?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
There was going to be some sort of a hiccup, and you're seeing it and experiencing it. President Trump ran on tariffs, and let me bring you into the room of the calculus. He knows that he wants to do tariffs to get better trade deals and rebalance the deficit.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
So the consensus of Wall Street right now is that these tariffs will create a bitter, ongoing trade war of which there will be no resolution. Comment on the details of these tariffs, President Trump's strategy, and any feedback you might have.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
If he knows he has to rebuild American manufacturing on one side, and he also simultaneously knows that he is going to have the greatest liberator of economic growth, which is tax cuts and deregulation, which one would you do first? Would you do the tough stuff first or the easy popular stuff first?
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
So if President Trump decided to ignore this problem and do nothing, I'm curious what would actually end up happening, which is the further deindustrialization of America. You've been studying the Reagan years, and in order to get inflation under control, they sparked a recession. Tell us any parallels that we might see in the ensuing prosperity that happened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
So what would you consider to be a good resolution with some of these negotiating tariffs? No tariffs at all? No boundaries or barriers? There's a debate right now of what does success look like? Because some of these tariffs are so extremely high. Is that going to be the new normal? In your estimation for the American worker, what would be the best resolution there?

So President Trump, knowing he has to do tariffs and that people voted to have him do tariffs to reindustrialize the country and onshore jobs, he said and has decided to do the tough fight first. Get it out of the way. Shock and awe. Now, out of all the tariffs that President Trump has applied, the ones on China are the are. the most bold of them all. The boldest, I should say.

You see, the Chinese Communist Party could very well go into an economic depression over this. Now, whether or not we will go into a recession, we will see. But the Chinese Communist Party is so reliant and so dependent, they are so married to the American market that they require... unfettered free trade, even though we do not have free trade with the Chinese Communist Party.

We are not able to open our banks in China. Many of our goods and services and our products, we're not able to import many of our vehicles. It is not a reciprocal market. Every U.S. tech company is restricted in China. Out of all of the tariffs that President Trump has issued, the one that is making the markets the most jittery, the one that is making the markets most nervous is China.

The Chinese Communist Party is showing its hand. They know that this could mean. The end of the current Chinese Communist Party uptick over the last 25 years. They know it. They sense it. And they feel it. But understand the sequence of events because what's coming after this is going to be almost nothing but good news. You start with the tariffs. And then what is coming next? Deregulation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
Drill baby drill. Oil permits. And then no tax on tips. No tax on Social Security, extending the Trump tax cuts, major middle class tax cut, heavy machinery depreciation. So you start with the stuff that is going to kind of be a little bit of a gut punch to the markets, and then you build your way up from there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
All the while, what tariffs do is they are a forcing function to redomicile companies to the United States. These systemic changes will help us long term. President Trump is looking to implement a long term systemic change to help make our country stronger. But it will undoubtedly come with some bumps and some hiccups and, for some people, some short-term economic pain.

What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
What is going on here, what is unfolding on the markets, which right now is a red bloodbath, is a moral question. Are we willing to delay the immediate sugar high of gratification, even though we know it is unsustainable and bad for us, to break through on the other side to have a vibrant and strong and long-term durability? That is the question in front of us.

And ever since the Greenspan put, ever since the tradition of easy money and the influx of artificially low interest rates, the stock market has gone up and up and up. And we have seen us enter into an era where we don't make stuff, but we certainly consume it. You cannot print wealth, and the trade deficits coupled with our national debt have left us in a rather precarious situation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
You know how easy it would be for President Trump to just punt, to delay, and not confront this problem head on. America has for decades operated on a plan of trading U.S. dollars for things produced in other countries. We trade paper for goods. We trade paper for goods. If people ever decide they don't want the paper anymore, we are helpless. China makes things. They engineer them.

And we believe the propaganda from the free trade absolutists. that you are somehow liberated and an enlightened economy if you do nothing but brain work but no body work, as the great Victor Davis Hanson said in our program. Instead, you need both.

You need both the brain and the body of an economy. In fact, despite what all of the experts and the prognosticators told us, we are about to see the greatest hardware demand that humanity has had since the Industrial Revolution. Almost all of the wealth that has driven the stock market over the last 10 years, outside of Apple, Apple is the exception, has largely been software breakthroughs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
Tesla could be the other exception. But you look at Google, you look at Amazon, you look at Meta or Facebook, you look at Netflix, So much of that is software breakthroughs. It's applications, social media data companies. Now, NVIDIA, to their credit, does do a fair amount of hardware, but it's coupled with some software advancements.

If we are serious about entering this golden era of America, we have to strip ourselves of the old economic alliances and worldview, the allegiances that have plagued us for quite some time. And the easy decision, the simple decision would be delay it. Extend the good times. Who cares? Draw down the inheritance. It's not our problem. And understand,

That during COVID, during the lockdowns, we saw on display the instant gratification moral issue.

We baby boomers have earned it, and we are going to sell our kids off, and it doesn't matter if they'll be indebted and sick and helpless and abused. That was the moral decision made during COVID.

What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
That financial behavior that Rick Santelli is pinpointing beautifully is that we will import piles of plastic that we do not need. We will no longer make stuff here. And regardless of the consequences to our own citizenry, we will continue to trade paper for stuff. Paper for stuff. You see, the one advantage that we have is that when a trade war escalates.

What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
is that traditionally the country that is in the trade deficit will almost always win the trade war because we have far more cards than the country that is in the trade surplus. So China is actually very reliant on us right now. So much of their material wealth has been built on trading with us. And we have not decided to do anything about it. And also understand that

It is easy and quite honestly, intellectually lazy to blame Donald Trump for this. Blame the people that created the mess. He is attempting to fix it. And it's going to take a Herculean effort. to go through the fact that a lot of people are losing money right now, and I am not diminishing that. I'm not minimizing it.

I believe they will get it back and then some because of the tax cuts, the deregulation, the drill baby drill, the no tax on tips.

Wall Street Journal, stocks suffer steepest slide since 2020. Tariff shock waves circle the globe. The stock market does matter. 62% of Americans have something that they have worked hard for in the stock market. It should not be diminished. It should not be minimized. Now, markets did know that this was coming. Markets knew that there was going to be some sort of a recalibration.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
This is another important point. I think at its core, a lot of Americans appreciate certain forms of trade and importation. If your country is full of great artisans and craftsmen, and you're importing something that is incredibly unique, something that that nation is known for, For example, Colombian coffee. Fair enough. Or Canadian maple syrup. French wine is a great example.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
The tariffs are not targeted towards that. I mean, they might be caught up in that, but the essence of the tariffs is not trying to go after Italian olive oil. It's not trying to destroy the native cultural export of a certain nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
No, instead, what we have a problem with is trading when a nation becomes an industrial mill of unnecessary piles of plastic, unnecessary amount of garbage that then floods our streets, our communities. And we have no attachment with what we're actually buying. We become so hyper materialistic. We are not here to try and stop French wine from coming to the United States.
The Charlie Kirk Show
What the Trump's Tariffs Mean for You, Today and For The Future
In fact, though, I will say the wine producers in Fredericksburg, Texas, and Napa Valley would love that. Instead, we want American products, the stuff that we're good at making, which is a couple things here or there, to be able to go into other nations without penalty or tariff.

He got hate for playing Leonard Bernstein in Maestro because he's a white man and Leonard Bernstein is Jewish. So we're not allowed to do that, apparently. White people can't play other races or ethnicities or anything. But yeah, this is a headline here. Let's discuss Bradley Cooper's racist fake nose for Maestro.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
He had to have a prosthetic nose put on so that Bradley Cooper, actor, can look like the person he's playing. This is not new, people. Actors have to use prosthetics to look like the person they are playing very often. It's not racist, okay? It's just the business. And if you're in the business of acting, sometimes you have to pretend like you're someone else. That's the entirety of the industry.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
Some might call it, this is how this whole thing works. So if you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen. And it's not just Bradley Cooper. Gal Gadot, who is also in this reboot of Snow White, by the way, she got hate for being cast as Cleopatra. Gal Gadot is Israeli. She actually fought in the IDF. She's Israeli. And people were saying, well, she can't be cast as Cleopatra.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
Here's the Guardian. Gal Gadot as Cleopatra is a step backward for Hollywood representation. And this author, Hannah Flint, she said, casting misses the chance to give a North African actor a chance to play Cleopatra. And it turns out that historians say that Cleopatra is actually Greek and Persian. So she wasn't North African either. But, you know, don't check the facts, OK?
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
Hollywood doesn't care about the facts. They care about a woman who looks white and appears white is playing an Egyptian person of color in history. But they're wrong. It doesn't even matter. So here's the hypocrisy, though. People of color can play white characters. That's no problem. So The Little Mermaid, that has been rebooted recently. She's black and she can play Ariel.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
So they give a black girl the red hair. No big deal, right? I think Netflix did a rendition of some show with Queen Elizabeth and Queen Elizabeth was black. Okay, so Snow White can be Latina, but God forbid it's the other way around and a white actor plays something else. Pretending's okay, but not if, you know, it just like crosses their wires a little bit in the woke world.

They just get like a little confused. But the DEI craziness didn't stop there. You would think that by Hollywood logic, they would want to cast little people as the seven dwarves. Nope, nope. Get that crazy thought out of your heads. We don't want little people to play dwarves.

And, you know, the one who spray painted the Nazi cars. These people are facing five to 20 years in prison. Thank goodness. That's not all. Our deputy FBI director, Dan Bongino, ever heard of him? He posted this on X saying, communication and transparency are my priorities. We work with you or for you, the American people.

So Peter Dinklage, very famous actor with dwarfism, by the way, put a stop to all this, saying it's wrong to cast little people as dwarves because they should be cast as other characters as well. They shouldn't be pigeonholed into these fantasy roles. So The Wrap reporting, Disney assures Peter Dinklage on Snow White reboot, we are taking a different approach to the dwarf characters.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
And boy, did they take a different approach. They used AI for the dwarves. This may be one of the first American jobs lost to AI thanks to Peter Dinklage. They didn't cast humans at all to play the dwarves. They are literally fake. They are CGI. They are AI. And it's just rich coming from Peter Dinklage because he's one of the most famous actors with dwarfism.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
He had a very funny role in the movie Elf, where he didn't play an elf, but there is this iconic scene where Will Ferrell, who is an elf... He mistook Peter Dinklage's character for an elf. You know, he's a very angry elf. So obviously that check cashed fine. When he was a little person, an elf, that was fine.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
When he was one of the biggest stars on Game of Thrones and a fantasy series, that was fine. That check cashed fine. So it's okay for Peter Dinklage to cash in on being a little person, but God forbid anyone else in that community wants to get their shot.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
And a lot of the little people who are actors are pissed off and rightfully so because who died and made Peter Dinklage the king of all actors with dwarfism? It's insane. He absolutely took these opportunities away from actors with dwarfism. It's sick. And like, what is inclusive about that?
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
So all of the actors with dwarfism who probably would have, you know, just died to have this opportunity to star in Snow White because these opportunities don't come along very often for actors with dwarfism. And I understand Peter Dinklage's, you know, stance where he's like, you know, little people shouldn't just be cast as little people.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
But, you know, to take away the opportunity, like this could have been one of their big shot. And he totally just... you know, crap the bed for these other artists and actors in the space. So I think this is a total loss. Now, you know, people who watch this movie, they're not going to see actors, they're going to see CGI or AI versions of elves and dwarves.
The Dan Bongino Show

You know, Peter Bradshaw from The Guardian, this is one of the critics here, he gave the film one star. He called it an exhaustingly awful reboot. He describes the costume design for Snow White as a, quote, supermarket retail tweenie outfit with puffy sleeved shoulders.

He said otherwise, performers Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot are forced to go through the motions and they give the dullest performance of their lives. That is not a good review. One star. And I do want to say on the topic of reboots, can we just stop? Hollywood, any film that comes out now, it's either a reboot or it's a prequel or it's a sequel.

And she's apparently fascinated by this. She didn't call out RFK Jr. by name.

I don't know how it always, the price always jumps up in like 20 bucks for me, like 15 to 20 bucks. I'm like, what just happened here? Anytime I try to order on one of these apps, I've used Uber Eats, Seamless, DoorDash, Grubhub, all of them. And this one, DoorDash, is now teaming up with Klarna, which is like an afterpay type situation.

So people can now order, let's say, a $30 pizza that ends up being $50, but we won't go there. So $30 for the sake of argument. And they can now pay this pizza off in installments. So maybe over three months, they can pay $10 a month to pay off this food delivery bill. We have gotten to a very sad place in America. People are so riddled with credit card debt.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
We're not moving in the right direction here. This is not good. And we were all talking about this earlier. I don't think that people who are strapped for cash are ordering on these apps. Because like I said, the fees are astronomical. Again, they're adding it's, you know, you've got to tip the driver, the delivery person.

This is where people send in prank law enforcement calls, which are, it's an absolute disgusting waste of law enforcement effort and resources. These are fake calls. where people will call law enforcement and say, so-and-so has done some crime. There's drugs or a murder or whatever it is. Law enforcement descends on that person's home. And again, someone could get hurt like this. This is serious.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
They always make you the tip that they say is based off of the amount of food. So it's not even like you're tipping on service, really. Like they encourage you to tip. 10%, 15%, 20% on the price of the pizza, which doesn't make sense. But people are tipping a lot, and then there's fees for everything. So again, if you're strapped for cash, you're not ordering food like this.

But this teaming up with Klarna is going to be bad. They're tapping into a market of people who are not well off financially. They shouldn't be putting food or a meal on afterpay. And Dave Ramsey, who is the king of economic advice, he responded to a tweet about this on X, and he responded with a gif, and he just looks like absolutely... in disbelief. He's like, no, no, no.
The Dan Bongino Show

Because people call into Dave Ramsey's show for financial advice all the time. And he'll tell people who are in massive amounts of debt, like, cut up your credit cards. Do not put things on afterpay. So imagine how Dave Ramsey feels, people putting their pizza or their burrito or whatever on afterpay. Things are not good. But we are at that time in the show. You know what that time is.

Sort of, sort of, kind of, gee, okay, gee, I like that song. The first video that I have for you is just very serendipitous. It just makes you feel good. This is, this is where, you know, the crazy left, they hate on people who wear MAGA hats and sometimes justice is served.

Yep. The liberal woman shaking her finger at the Indian man in the MAGA hat tries to pull the MAGA hat off of his head, runs after him outside of the subway and trips and falls.

But that feels good for us to watch, you know. Sorry, like you deserved it. And she's calling an Indian man racist. She says, if you voted for Trump, you're therefore you are racist.

She said, Trump is racist for making English the official language. Watch this. It says, he's not a racist.

America has no official language to be accepting to everyone, even though a majority of the people speak English.

Now, there's a little bit of sanity in the comments as well. Someone named Dexter Adams said, all the first world countries have an official language except the USA. So maybe it's about time. Someone named Joshua said, okay, then it's also racist for Canada's official language to be English, Japan's official language to be Japanese, Belarus' official language to be Russian, right? Okay.

If other countries have an official language, Why shouldn't we? And the majority of people in this country speak English. So I don't know, makes sense to me.

This information was then forwarded to the appropriate police department, which responded by coming to my house. He said, thank God no one was home at the time.

everyone's safe and he appreciates the support. I will say I saw a lot of conservatives who are being swatted as well reach out and say, this is domestic terrorism. This is horrible. It doesn't matter who it happens to. We need to hold these people accountable. It's not a prank. It's horrible. So I'm very glad to see that we have law enforcement agents actually doing what they're supposed to do.

But Democrats are still confused as to why conservatives are still supporting Trump. I don't know why. All the things that I had just listed in the beginning of the show here, where law enforcement's doing their job, they're cleaning up the southern border. This is exactly what we voted for. This is the get-ish-done administration. They're getting-ish-done at record speeds, and we love to see it.

She's talking about Trump supporters as the people being in this so-called cult and talking about Trump, of course, President Trump, who is apparently ruining the country. I don't see how he's ruining the country. He's doing exactly what I wanted him to do. He's promises made, promises kept.

Yes, we are. And why wouldn't we be? Trump ran on a strong, secure southern border. And we just saw in the last four years what happens when you don't have that, which is migrants run amok.

But before he had this change of heart, which is a total lie, by the way, He used to champion trans issues for kids. I just want to bring you back, and this isn't far back in time, mind you. This is just this summer, okay? This is back in July. So less than a year ago, California banned school rules requiring parents' notification of child pronoun change. So Gavin Newsom signed on to this.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
California allows parents to be completely in the dark. If a child is in school, is in a public school, they can change their name and change their pronouns. They can switch their gender. All the adults in the school, they're not the adults in the room. Of course, they allow children to run amok. They allow children to

Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
to, you know, it's the insane people are running the asylum, like children are in charge and the adults are letting them affirm all of their delusions. So kids can come into school and Sally can say, I'm Billy today. And the student, the teachers will have to say, you know, that's cool. And then they don't tell the parents.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
OK, so I just want to let you know where Gavin Newsom stood on trans issues with children just not even a year ago. But he went back on that claim on his own podcast. He had Charlie Kirk on the show. It was a curious break from his usual stance. They talked about trans women in women's sports, so men in women's sports. And all of a sudden, he thinks it's crazy and deeply unfair. Listen.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
OK, so this is a complete departure from where he was less than a year ago, where, of course, he he has an agenda. Right. Gavin Newsom is a chameleon. He's a political chameleon. He's going to tell you exactly what you want to hear. And he's positioning himself, in my opinion, to be a front runner in twenty twenty eight. He is telling conservatives what they want to hear.
The Dan Bongino Show
Nightly Scroll - Critics Give Disney’s Feminist “Snow White” a Rotten Apple
And it's really not hard for Gavin Newsom to take this stance because it's a very popular stance, by the way. The majority of Americans would agree that men should not compete against women in women's sports. Men shouldn't be allowed in women's locker rooms and in women's bathrooms and spaces because that's dumb. So Gavin Newsom, he's not doing this high and mighty thing.
The Dan Bongino Show

So, of course, he has to depart from the crazies because the rest of the country has the pendulum has swung and people are coming closer to the middle on a lot of issues.

It was our theory of the case, if you will, as we were going into this.

And then finally – As a kicker, you know, we had Mark McKinnon go to one of our campus stops, who's a fair guy, but he's definitely not a Trumper. And he was a Bush guy. He did the circus. And I've always had respect for him. And he started to see this stuff on social media. And to his credit, to his credit, unlike anybody else, he's like, I need to see this.

I don't believe he was almost like, I don't believe it. So he went to the University of Georgia and we drew 5000 people, Megan, 5000 people at the University of Georgia. And he went, he was like. I said that Kamala was going to win, but now I'm second guessing myself based on what he saw. I was like, yeah, Mark, I mean, there's something happening here.

And now the exit polls, we won the youth vote in Michigan. We almost won it in Wisconsin. In Pennsylvania, we don't know, but we almost flipped Center County, which is Penn State. We got within one point of it, which usually it's a 20-point Democrat victory there. And we went to Penn State and did a massive event. We did five events in Penn State, by the way, this cycle for obvious reasons.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And it's tempting to say that it was a landslide, which it was. However, let me kind of humble the audience a little bit. Donald Trump won by less than a point in Wisconsin, about 28,000 votes. He won by a point-ish, 1.2 in Michigan. And then he won by one point in Pennsylvania. And so, Megan, it is conceivable that without this record movement of youth vote, He doesn't win.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And I'm not saying that because I'm, you know, in that space, but we're talking about a point and a half across three states. Now, the Sunbelt states were more generous and were more decisive. But as you know, everyone was saying, if you can't win a Rust Belt state, Kamala is president. So you could say that the kids are all right and the kids put Donald Trump back in the White House.

Yeah, and by the way, rarely do you get the answer to a question in the question. And her whole question is exactly why there was a rebellion against them. Listen, just because you didn't go to college doesn't mean you're stupid and it doesn't mean that you don't have wisdom. I always differentiate between knowledge and wisdom.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
You can go to college and get a bunch of irrelevant facts about how men – Can allegedly give birth or whatever they teach. I mean, it's about North African lesbian poetry. Okay, that's fine, I guess. But I said this to our team. I said working people, the muscular class, including working women in the sense of waitresses and women that work for Amazon.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And there's a lot of women delivery drivers there. They are so in favor of Trump and they don't want to be called stupid or uneducated. And I've said this for so long and it's finally manifested, which is that it is laced into how we do our public opinion polling. And she played into it perfectly because I've said this for a decade.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And finally, I have a piece of evidence to show this more than anything else, that we look at how we elect our leaders in two buckets, stupid and and smart. And the stupid people are the people that don't have a certificate from Yale. And the smart people are $200,000 in debt because they went to Drake.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
She said those exact words repeatedly.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And so the breakdown though, is that Donald Trump, which by the way, is just smart politics because there's more people that didn't go to college than did go to college. And I know that's really hard for the Democrats to realize because everyone in their circle went to college, but the majority of the country actually does not have a four-year college diploma.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
The majority of the country are people that have two-year technical degrees or community college, or they just went into the workforce right out of high school. And so Donald Trump gave these people a voice because they're tired of being told that they're stupid just because they didn't go into debt to go study something that doesn't matter to find jobs that don't exist.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And these people, by the way, Megan, Both men and women, we call them, as I said, the muscular class. They are the ones that kept the economy alive to great personal risk for themselves and their family during COVID.

They're the ones that delivered you your Uber Eats for three months on straight while you in the laptop class were able to keep on doing your job by opening your laptop in the comfort of your home while the Amazon trucks were still delivered and the supply chain went uninterrupted. those people have felt belittled. They have felt talked down to.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And Donald Trump communicated with them better than any candidate since Ronald Reagan in 1988. And the final point I'll say is this, is Sonny, Do you guys thought that abortion was going to be this like quasi zealot religious issue? I'm pro-life. If people in the audience aren't, that's fine.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
What I'm saying, though, what gives me promise, and I think we can all agree on this, is that there are other issues that should animate and drive our politics. other than this very divisive one. And I was really encouraged by that, Megan, very encouraged because the media was forcing this as an up or down vote on a referendum on a highly complicated, very emotional, very personal issue.
The Megyn Kelly Show

I want to try to win you over as a liberal for Donald Trump. Why should I vote for Trump? There's no guesswork in this election. We know the type of president that Trump was and that he will be. There are three things I want you to think about when voting for Trump. Homeownership, border, war. Three objective things.

Let's go!
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Well, I'm humbled. And I said this. Well, thank you, Megan. And I'd love to meet your kids. And I just I said this on election night. God gave us grace as a nation. I'm humbled by it. I say praise God. I'm just a small part. And he used what we were doing. I mean this. I had zero expectation that what we were going to do was actually going to move the dial this much. We did it out of obedience.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
We did it out of, hey, let's play the role. You know what it's like on a campaign, right, Megan? Oh, if we can move, you know, a couple hundred people and do your part and it all adds up. I had no idea that this thing was going to set off the way it did. And I mean, we look at... we look at these youth vote numbers, it's not normal. It's the best performance by a Republican since 1988.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And allow me to say one other thing about the youth vote that I think you'll really appreciate, Megan, which is the Democrats underestimated how much pent up rebellion energy was there because of how they were treated and lied to during COVID and the political correct regime that coupled with COVID. So they lost proms, graduations. They had to wear masks. They were on Zoom class.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And then during it, they were propagandized with the most ferocious, aggressive, misleading left-wing propaganda on race, on sexuality, on gender, on America that we've ever seen. And so now, four years later, this Gen Z was like, you know what? You guys in charge, the same people that were trying to lock up Trump, you guys materially messed up my life, and I don't like you.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And I think the Democrats misread the vibe. They're about the vibe. They misread it. And we happened to read the room. We saw it. And again, these kids were disproportionately punished for doing nothing wrong during COVID for extended periods of time. And the Democrats just shrugged their shoulders. Oh, kids will get over it. Think about it, Megan.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
You know, you remember probably years 13 through 17 more than years, you know, 23 through 27. Those are your formative years. And they were they were robbed by these kids from these kids. And so we played into that in the best possible way. And Donald Trump. became this ascendant symbol of we're going to take back the country so that you can have a better future.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And as I said, at almost every campus stop, you guys represent the first generation since George Washington to have it worse off than your parents. It is a breakdown of the social contract. You are the most depressed, anxious, suicidal. Drug addicted, psychiatric drug addicted, alcohol addicted generation in history. You guys deserve better.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
We do politics basically for one reason, to leave a better future for our kids. I mean, all the other stuff is fine, but that's really why we do this, right? So that you can keep this beautiful experiment going. And we failed in that. And this next generation had a say to try to make sure that they could also have access to the American dream like their parents. And they spoke decisively.
The Megyn Kelly Show

And every Democrat right now is scratching their head, going through precinct by precinct, wondering why their safe spots of college campuses like Dane County, Wisconsin, like Center County, Pennsylvania, like Arizona State, like University of Arizona in Tucson, why they move 20 to 25 points in Donald Trump's direction.

I just – I was humbled and blown away because I – throughout this entire thing, I'm getting emotional thinking about it. And I'm sure you agree, Megan. I said there's no way they're going to let us do this. That something's going to happen, right? And again, call it paranoia. Call it – Just trying to be ahead of the curve. And I'm sitting in a seat right here where I saw Trump got shot.
The Megyn Kelly Show

And it's just you don't think you're actually going to get there because we've been programmed to just say that like powerful people get what they want. Right. And.

And a couple thoughts on this. Number one, if President Trump would not have defeated Hillary Clinton in 2017, you would have an entire Supreme Court composed of people like this. And I hope everyone in your audience takes a moment to truly reflect on that. This is the predominant view of the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party relies on unelected, non-democratic sources of power.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
to be able to continue their ideological campaign against the American people. Even though they do it in the name of democracy, it's all about unelected bureaucrats in the federal government and then unelected judiciary. Secondly, I'm glad the Trump administration is taking this posture.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
This judge himself thinks so highly of his ability as a district court judge that he's saying, well, of course I can conduct things overseas. Imagine the precedent here. The precedent would be that if the president of the United States, like, for example, the president yesterday mobilized three aircraft carriers to defend shipping lanes outside of Iran. Is he allowed to do that?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Is that going to be enjoined? And of course, a more lighthearted one is some judge going to say, you know, actually, you have to return the two astronauts back to the space station because I have to find out exactly why you sent the rocket to SpaceX making money. Does my jurisdiction go into orbit?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I mean, does a district court judge, is a district court judge allowed to get involved in satellite movements? I mean, at some point you have to ask the question, who is in charge? And the founding fathers answered this question very crisply. They answered it with great profundity and wisdom. The American people are in charge and their proxy is the president.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029

She obviously had a producer or two in her ear trying to keep up with Stephen Miller because that's about how smart Stephen Miller is. It takes about like four liberal women producers at CNN to be even able to be competitive with Stephen Miller. And they couldn't even get it right.

The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And Stephen made an incredibly important point here, which is, and it wasn't in that piece of tape, which is that the president does not even need to acknowledge this district court decision. Yeah, the Supreme Court will rule on it eventually, but It is well settled in American law that anything that comes to foreign policy is directly under the president of the United States.

We did not doubt, for example, that Joe Biden had the ability to do a disastrous withdrawal of Afghanistan. We hated what he did. We hated how he did it. But he has that power. I mean, it's very simple. He could do it.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
and i want to just get back to this point though that the very and the very cheerleaders for democracy you notice they don't talk about the threats of democracy very much anymore they've kind of silenced on that entire talking point the last six months but the very people that are saying that they're for democracy are now wanting unelected institutions to slow down the will of the american people and to completely stop it their goal is to try to throw sand in the gears
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Right now, we have a record amount of injunctions. If you want to know my greatest concern about Trump 2.0, it is not the sophistication of his staff. It is amazing versus Trump 1.0. I mean, the president, he just looks so centered and composed and happy. Seeing him at the Kennedy Center, I mean, he's in rare form. His staff is phenomenal. They are executing on every element and every item.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
No, my greatest concern is that their ambitious plans to deliver on the promises that the president made for the American people.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
and that they are helping to put into practice will not be possible because a group of people in black robes that nobody voted for are going to make this go piece by piece and bit by bit and yes we do have the u.s supreme court and again praise the lord that president trump was able to get three supreme court justice justices two of them pretty good one of them is suspicious but i think even amy coney barrett despite her recent um you know let's just say posturing
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
is going to rule favorably on this. And again, the big takeaway is the slowdown of the Trump administration, everything from Doge to the southern border. And then eventually these district court judges are imagine President Trump talking to Vladimir Putin. It's going to break the Internet. Everyone's going to be talking about it. Kind of in a district court judge say, you know what?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Actually, Russia and Ukraine, the war must continue. Actually, the Israel-Gaza conflict must continue. This is the exact same thing that we are talking about here. It has to deal with matters of foreign policy and enemy invasion. And a law is on the books. And it is worth repeating. They say it's this 200-year-old law.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
But what they're really getting at is that that which is old must be discarded. You see, we as conservatives believe that that which is old and that which lasts is actually beautiful and worthy of studying because it's a reflection of human nature. And even though the times change, human nature does not change.

Bingo. It is completely settled. And the Democrats are going to continue to push for the most radical measures to stop President Trump. That is perfectly said. And the final takeaway here that I think is incredibly important, and you did mention this as well, just understand the actual biographies of the people that they are willing to fight for, the hill that they are willing to die on.

And person after person came up talking about home invasions, talking about how the gang members have taken over apartment and condominium complexes, how their entire town has become a Venezuelan-occupied city. Now, no more. It has now been liberated largely thanks to the federal government, and Tren de Aragua has been scattered across America.
The Megyn Kelly Show

But the Democrats on the left, they are so desperate to try to slow down this administration that they are willing to side with drug traffickers, murderers, and criminals for any reason whatsoever. And just understand the moral sickness that has infected the Democrat Party. And I hate to put it this way, Megan, because I wish the Democrats actually would moderate on some issues.

I know we'll talk about the Gavin thing and whether that's legitimate or not. I wish the Democrats wouldn't be like this. But over a span of a couple of weeks, the Democrat Party at whole, and if you count this judge as one of them, they refused to stand and applaud a young man with brain cancer who ceremonially became part of the U.S. Secret Service.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
while also aligning and supporting a judge who wants murderers and drug traffickers and criminals to have a piece by piece deportation process to potentially stay in the United States of America. That's the hill that they're willing to die on. It is a it is a cancer that has infected the Democrat Party.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029

Oh, without a doubt. I mean, the problem with impeachment of judges, it's very hard. It's very arduous. I also think removal and impeachment are two technically different things. I'd have to double check that because I think it still takes it's the same threshold in the Senate as a conviction takes.

of a president because the president has been impeached president trump twice both on bs total nonsensical stuff so yes i mean this this judge should absolutely be removed but this is the problem that we're going to have with those four years that we didn't control the white house is this was not a biden judge this was an obama judge but this the district courts are now filled
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
with these radical left-wing judges across the country that are just taking turns trying to enjoin President Trump on everything that he is possibly doing. So absolutely, this judge should be impeached. I think an example needs to be made out of him. And look, the example needs to be very clear that there's no merits to him trying to stop a foreign security operation.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
The president should just shrug this off and say this is a complete waste of time. I also think that this is a great opportunity for Mike Johnson and John Thune to maybe show some political muscle. But the Democrats won't vote to impeach this guy in the Senate. Of course not. We can't get them to vote to protect women's sports in the U.S.

But it also shows, and this is one that I want to invigorate your audience for those of us that want to see the president succeed and that are supporters of the president, is that it just shows how desperate the Democrats have, that they are willing to go to such extraordinary, unprecedented measures.

to the Darien Gap, which is a very difficult forest to navigate, which actually you have to take from Venezuela eventually upwards all the way through Central America. The Darien Gap border crossings are down like 95 to 98% approximation.

meaning that all of a sudden not a lot of people want to go from venezuela all the way up to america and yes of course the communist regime of venezuela has been proven multiple times through congressional reports congressional testimony and intelligence reports maduro has opened up his prisons and sent the worst of the worst of venezuela to America because it was open season.

We were a littering ground for the third world. In fact, crime was down dramatically in Venezuela during the four years of Joe Biden. While crime went up in America, crime in Venezuela went dramatically down. And so we have to look at this through an eyes of deterrent and precedent. It's an amazing deterrence. This will only further decrease gang members and cartels.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Say, I don't want to go to America. I might end up in an El Salvadorian jail. Forget this. I'm not going to go there. Phenomenal. And then finally, precedent. I agree that the Trump administration does not need to even get the Supreme Court to intervene. However, that will likely happen regardless. The DOJ will probably end up appealing this and we will get another precedent.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And so for both on the deterrence and the precedent side, The President Trump's team has done a phenomenal job. And also, let me comment on the Mahmoud Kamil situation briefly. I thought you did great with Glenn Greenwald. I sympathize with you 100%, Megan. I think the President is firmly within his constitutional authority under the Immigration Naturalization Act.

Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Secondly, I think he's making the right decision. You're an invited guest in the United States of America and not a U.S. passport holder, and you start actively involving in the fomenting of protest, outrage, and activity against the foreign policy interests of the United States, which involves
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
the celebrating of the massacring and the butchery of babies, of the most heinous crimes against civilians and the Jewish people we've seen since the Holocaust. Sorry, your invitation to the United States of America has been rescinded. You are here on a conditional basis and we rescind you on the conditions that you are now actively making America a worse place to operate and live.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Go back to your country of origin, Syria, I think it is, and go make that country great with all of your protest vigor. But understand that the Mahmoud Khalil situation is a great test case because they're suing that to eventually get a decision that President Trump is operating within the
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
his constitutional authority and actually the authority actually goes to the secretary of state as the immigration naturalization act is actually written it's marco rubio's call it's it's precisely on him and so they're being very smart about this is that they're going to get really good court decisions from the u.s supreme court on this it might take a little bit more time
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
But the verdict will end up being that these radical left-wing judges did nothing but slow down the inevitable, and the Democrats end up siding with Hamas sympathizers and Tren de Aragua members. Quite a time to be a Democrat.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I think we can conjecture why he got his green card so quickly, is that there are anti-Jewish, anti-Israel forces within the State Department that likely wanted this individual here. Again, we're just hypothesizing, but you're exactly right. I mean, you look at Riley Gaines' husband, who has been trying to get U.S.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
citizenship and his paperwork all figured out, and it's been a nightmare for quite a while. I mean, we can go through the list. We all have examples of friends and family
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
of people that have tried this, people that are phenomenal and they marry American citizens and they follow the law and they're well-educated and they're great patriots and nope, you can't get them a green card or a temporary citizenship or citizenship, whatever status you want. You have to wonder, again, I think a proper investigation is warranted and Marco Rubio can look at this.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Was there a fast track? Was there an accelerated process that was put into place for Mahmoud Kamil because he was trained as a professional agitator and organizer.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Now, when we look through the left wing literature, if you look through the left wing literature, there's documents such as Good Trouble and many of these organizations, they use a hub and spoke model where they believe that a singular agitator or organizer will be able to mobilize 500 to 1000 people
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
during a moment of mass protest against quote-unquote injustice we see this in the actual olinsky literature this is in their training and their their guidebooks you have to wonder if mahmoud khalil was put into columbia university for the stated purpose of being a professional agitator against the United States and against Israel and was given a green card for that reason.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And was there any suspicion acceleration by the Biden State Department? We don't know. It's worthy to look into, but it would not shock me or surprise me that anti-American forces did this on many college campuses, Megan.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
What if we were to find out that there were 20 identical type of Mahmoud Khalil, foreign-funded, foreign-trained people that were put on American college campuses, maybe at UCLA or some of these other massive encampments?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I saw the UCLA one firsthand or the one at University of Washington where they were able to gin up all these well-meaning college kids that have been indoctrinated by their professors. It's worthy to look into, and it also begs a broader and deeper question,
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
How often, if at all, is the American immigration system being used to aid our enemies to create sometimes very quiet or sometimes loud sleeper cells in the interior of the United States to sow discord and disharmony against the best interests of our country?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
But I just want to make one point, which is that if an American citizen goes and burns a flag on a college campus, that's grotesque and it's bad. And that is constitutionally protected. But if someone on a green card, which is a permission slip, it's probationary, as you perfectly said, it's a time for us to see who this person is, goes and burns an American flag.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
No, you should be returned to your country of origin. Sorry, you failed the test. You shouldn't be here. Like you're here to try. You failed your tryout. Your job interview is an F. And so they do not get the same protections. Of course not. We're looking at them. We're seeing, are you going to make a good citizen?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
We have such a perverted and just such a left wing view of how immigration should work. We have to reanalyze and go back to first principles that people who come here as immigrants, they are here as invited guests to enrich the homeland of the country and to make our lives better. and to make the lives of native citizens better.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And if their lives are also made better in the process, hopefully they are, then everybody wins. And that is immigration at its best, like the example of your nephew's wife. Of course, you'd make America a better place. Those are the types of people that we want in the United States of America. She would not be going to Columbia University burning an American flag.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
So I think that we need to take a step back and say, if you are here as an invited guest, and you act in a way or you espouse beliefs such as burning American flags or doing these types of practices, we're not going to throw you in a prison cell, but you will have to fly coach back to Damascus. That's only fair.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
But I have pictures with doubles.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Well, again, I think the president and his team are operating with phenomenal precision of the right cases to go after to set the right precedent. I mean, just the idea that you would try. I want to understand. So she she teaches at Brown or she's affiliated in Massachusetts somehow. It's not as if the funeral that she was visiting was in Richmond, Virginia.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
She went halfway around to the other side of the planet for a funeral for the Hezbollah leader. By the way, this is not exactly the nicest time of year to go visit that region of the world. Lebanon is not exactly like going to Turks and Caicos. Okay. You got to know somebody to even get in. And it's very suspicious. Okay. This whole thing.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Like, let's just understand the contextual elements here that you got to, like, connect through Istanbul. And then you're like, you're on your own. You got to take a train through the night. And you do all that. Like, oh, yeah, I'm not political BS. You're obviously a sleeper cell of a foreign government.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
and way to kind of expose yourself to the entire world that you go all the way to this funeral like yeah i really have have no ties to them and i i did take a bunch of pictures with every single one of the mass murdering lunatics of hezbollah these types of people that have any connection to terror cells have no place in the United States of America.

Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
If they are not US citizens, they should all be removed immediately. And I support the Trump administration completely. And again, it goes to show what the left is made of, is that the left views the entire world through oppressor and oppressed. We view the world through right and wrong, just and unjust, and moral and immoral.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
We look at this and we say that it is wrong, it is immoral, it is unjust for a country to willingly accept and receive a visitor who wants to become a permanent citizen who, I don't know, takes their PTO as a professor to go halfway around the world to a war-torn region to go visit the funeral of a Hezbollah leader
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
take pictures with all their top leaders, and then cry ignorant when asked questions upon reentry into the United States of America. She has no business being in our country. And if she's such a qualified expert on kidney transplants, there's a lot of demand for that in the Middle East. So she'll have... She'll have a lot of work. That's for sure.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Yeah, I mean, look, the president is a masterclass at being unpredictable, and he's not ideological when it comes to foreign policy. That is the most important thing you must understand with President Trump.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And that's why he's the best peace president and the most effective commander in chief of my lifetime and probably since Dwight D. Eisenhower, where he doesn't come after it being from a very specific perspective. an abstract worldview of we must be dovish or we must be hawkish. He looks at every independent situation, ways and measures and says, what is best for the United States of America?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I do sympathize with Tucker's view that a war with Iran would be totally... Would be terrible. And I think the president also agrees that, by the way, the president not once has signaled either in his campaign addresses in his first term that he wants a kinetic hot war with Iran. What does have some people worried is the mobilization of three, I believe, was three aircraft carriers or naval ships.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
towards Iran, towards the Strait of Hormuz, which is all about shipping lanes. I think that's perfectly justified.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Right. And so I think that's the Houthi strikes, right? Not the ones on mainland Iran, which have not happened and hopefully will not happen. And so then there's a mobilization of a naval fleet as well. So I take the president's view on this, which is what is best for the United States of America. while also understanding that Iran getting a nuclear weapon is a non-negotiable.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Understand this is an incredibly difficult balancing act that President Trump has to perform here.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
has three simultaneous and probably even four simultaneous difficult nobel peace prize level accomplishments that he has to do simultaneously he has to end the russian ukrainian war he has to figure out the gaza situation with israel which is just so sad and it's very difficult i'm of course on israel's side but it's a terrible situation gaza has become a slum Literally.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And I don't say that in a pejorative way. It's like Armageddon. It's a terrible place, unfortunately. Number three is this Iranian situation. Number four is China with Taiwan. He's inherited from Joe Biden chaos and the world viewing us as weak, and they're not really sure what America's role is here. And so the way I interpret this is that President Trump is not a neoconservative.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
He's not a nation builder. He's not an empire builder. He has campaigned on peace through strength. But it's time for us to kind of show that America's muscle is still alive, that we do still have the capacity and the ability to mobilize ships, to launch missiles, to be able to execute airstrikes. And we can go after American interests or even America troops overseas.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
The biggest of all of them, though, and we cannot lose sight of it, will be the sunsetting and the ending of the Russian-Ukrainian war. President Trump deserves phenomenal credit as he is beating back all the neoconservatives even entertaining, of which I think is really smart, the recognition of Crimea as Russian territory that has been Russia's historically. It's where Russian wine is from.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
It's where the Russian fleet was was centered and headquartered for hundreds of years. It was only ceremonially given to Ukraine, I think, in 1954 as a gesture to try to show Russian Ukrainian unity. after World War II.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
All of that aside, the fact that the president is entertaining that is a big blow to the neoconservatives and goes to show that President Trump really wants this Russian-Ukrainian war to end, which I think is the most important of all of them. But he has a very difficult task ahead of him
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
because he needs to make sure that our enemies fear us without wanting to go into another boondoggle of our Iraq or Afghanistan war, Afghan war.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
He has to try to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon while President Biden gave them tens of billions of dollars of probably direct aid and hundreds of billions of dollars of tariff and sanction relief, while simultaneously understanding that a military strike against mainland Iran would be catastrophic and terrible for
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
for our country getting involved in potentially an Iraq War 2.0, which I don't support and you don't support. So I'm going to trust the prudence and the sophistication of President Trump to be able to thread all of these needles. Praise God that he's actually being able to make all these decisions because he comes through everything through a strictly America-first, citizen-first perspective.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
That's right.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Well, first, I mean, understand, being the inaugural guest, it wasn't really even sure what I was going into, right? Because at the front end, it was like, hey, you know, there'll be no gotcha questions. It'll just be a discussion, which was largely true. And secondly, when you arrive and they tell you all this stuff, They're like, oh, you know, his son is a fan and all that.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
It was like so over the top, like charm offensive. I was like, are you going to want to become a member of Turning Point or something, Governor Newsom? It was like over that. It was like almost like nauseatingly positive. Right. That in that way, it was very difficult to navigate.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I will say if you look at Gavin Newsom's numbers, there's a Newsweek article, though his numbers are down dramatically as far as favorability, trust, authenticity. Since he started this podcast, it's not going very well for him of how people view him. So for that, I will say that I think we have done a good job of exposing him for be the synthetic fraud that he actually is.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I will give him credit for having the discussion. Great. They didn't edit any of it. That deserves credit because they very well could have edited the trans thing out. But I do understand completely where you're coming from, Megan. However, I would just view it a little bit differently. I don't think that Gavin Newsom is getting his spring training to become a presidential candidate.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I think he's actually being exposed as someone who will not be able to get through a Democrat primary. He's making a very calculated bet that no one's gonna remember that he was a failed governor, that no one's gonna remember that he literally has no accomplishments, and that he's gonna try to run to the middle and to be able to take his Democrat base for granted.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
The Democrat base as exhibited as how they're acting, in the streets and how they're acting in Congress is not moderating on these issues. In fact, I think this podcast might be ending Gavin Newsom's presidential ambitions, not preparing him for his presidential ambitions. Again, all this is just speculation and conjecture.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And then I will also speak just for myself personally why we decided to do it. Being the first guest, we consider that to be a pretty cool opportunity to be able to sit down and disagree and even debate at times with the governor of the world's, you know, the largest state, the fifth largest economy.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
uh in in the world and i do think that sitting down and being able to ex and educate which well was well over 30 or 40 million people that ended up consuming our conversation which was the most listened to so far of all the ones of people that were in the middle and people that were at least politically curious, I think was really helpful.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
I got text messages from people in the tech world, CEOs, some of the wealthiest people on the planet, also just rank and file normies, if you will, people that aren't exactly as politically engaged as you and I are, Megan, that were persuaded far more of the presentation of ideas that I presented far more than what Gavin did.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And so the final point I'll make is this, is that it wasn't just about Gavin, it was also about the tens of millions of people that were able to get their eyes open and say like, yeah, why didn't Gavin go stronger on the trans sports issue? Or why didn't he do this? And now Gavin Newsom, I could say this, you're seeing this, like you're seeing this all across the board.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
He is under nonstop siege and he's handling it all wrong in my opinion. Instead of doubling down and being like, you know, I'm going to keep on going to war against the Democrat Party. He keeps on doing these podcasts with, you know, people like us and trying to like win favor with us. When in reality, that's not happening. He's becoming more unpopular with his own base.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
He's becoming least trusted with moderates. People look at him as a synthetic and as a fake. And I have no regrets of dialoguing with him.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
only if they come after it in the way that i think we did without being overly braggadocious i think we were polite but we were incredibly disagreeable and firm and we were willing to challenge him and ask him questions about issues and get him on the record if you notice that's what we did with the trans thing it wasn't just like hey let's have a discussion i asked him a direct policy question
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
no and and so that's the only condition that i would say is that in so far that it's not just kind of a bro session of like hey so good that republicans and democrats are talking i don't think that's helpful for anybody but the next time someone sits down with him ask him an update hey governor newsom you said with charlie kirk that you think it's not fair You have yet to do anything about it.

Sign an executive order. Talk publicly about it because a young man named A.B. Hernandez is about to win the long jump championship in California as a biological man. Why haven't you done something about it? Or are you just doing this podcast for clicks to try to make yourself seem more moderate?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
If Republican guest after Republican guest goes with that kind of attitude, be polite and firm and hold him to the standard that he is setting on his own show, that will even collapse his political ambitions even further.

I mean, there is so much to unpack. And Megan, what a wonderful intro. And I'm really happy to be able to comment on this. First and foremost, I encourage everyone in your audience to check out Stephen Miller's about 10 minute masterclass that he had on CNN the other day. It was where he was going through point by point. It was it was a 10. And Stephen is a dear friend.

and we've worked together on a lot of different stuff and i don't pump up him unless he's really you know hit it i mean it was one of the most effective cable news segments and the cnn host i mean she had no idea what was going on but essentially to distill it and then add some additional commentary what we have seen over the last 40 years especially but over the last 100 years is the concentration of power in washington dc is largely vested in the unelected bureaucracy and the unelected judiciary this is against the founding fathers original intent
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
The founding fathers never put in to the original framework this idea of a fourth branch of government. We are seeing that finally, finally be criticized. That's what Doge is doing. And you see how the left is losing their mind. They're firebombing Tesla dealerships.

Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Okay, this is now the second part what we're seeing, and both simultaneously are animating the activist left, which is, well, what if we also challenge the power of the unelected judiciary? This is not judiciable, and which meaning Anything that happens overseas when it conducting foreign policy, a district court judge does not have jurisdiction over.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
He can try to invent some ways while he does, but the ramifications of this could directly impair national security. I could go through dozens of individual types of movements or actions that a president has done over the last 20, 30 years that, God forbid, a district court judge would get involved with.

and said you know what actually yeah exactly uh well yeah there was al-baghdadi exactly and there was also salamani from iran but you're exactly right al-baghdadi what if a district court judge would have enjoined president trump's ability to use american troops to go after the head of isis saying you know what i want to learn more about actually who these troops are i want to know the intelligence i want to know really what's going on here i mean this is so outrageous to anybody that understands how american foreign policy must operate secondly

Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
that the constitution is very clear this is an article two question that all authority when it comes to foreign policy vests in a commander of chief and commander-in-chief that is the president of the united states and i want to give a lot of credit to stephen miller and susie wiles and the white house team because they really thought this one through you see the kind of shallow analysis is oh the white house is moving so fast they don't know what they're doing
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
No, no, no, no. You look at how well prepared they have been for this. They picked the right fight. They wanted this one to go to the White House. Think of all the criteria that they were able to isolate here. Trend de Aragua. So every single one of these were people that were members of Trend de Aragua, which was mentioned earlier.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
and actually categorized even under Joe Biden as a foreign, operative word, a foreign terrorist organization from the Venezuelan government. That is number one. Number two, it involves foreign policy so that a district court judge absolutely does not have jurisdiction over it.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
and number three which i think is so incredibly important is that they then domiciled the terrorists in a foreign country and president bukele who is awesome by the way is literally like laughing at this district court judge like yeah you don't have jurisdiction over here you don't have sovereignty here you see typically the left they made a big mistake here the aclu made a huge mistake they took the bait they said oh my goodness the president is invoking a 200 year old law well time out the constitution
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
is over 200 years old. So I don't know exactly what they're getting at here, but they took the bait. They rushed into court. They sued. They said, oh, these murders and these rapists, we have to make sure that they stay in America. When in reality, they thought they were getting President Trump and his administration to stop what they were doing.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
The Trump administration likely, I'm saying this just as a gut instinct, I don't have this on first person authority, but I know the players involved and how sophisticated they are. They likely wanted the ACLU to sue on this particular matter, to have this eventually appeal to the Supreme Court and get a declarative final judgment.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And this is the final point I want to make on this, Megan, which is we talk frequently about how we finally have a southern border, right? Border crossings are down 95 to 99%. We're finally seeing it.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
One of the reasons why that's possible is because the first couple years of Trump one was spent in the courts actually putting remain in Mexico through the courts and getting a declarative decision at the Supreme Court, putting all the different pandemic related emergency measures, working through the legal ramifications of what it means to actually have a southern border.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
That was done during Trump one. Now, during Trump two, we're going through the same legal ramifications of actually being able to deport foreign nationals from our land who are terrorists, the worst of the worst. So credit to the Trump White House team. This judge is completely out of control. Remember, this judge is married to a radical left-wing lunatic.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
Secondly, also gave a slap on the wrist of Kevin Clinesmith. You might remember that during all the Russiagate, FBI, FISA court stuff. This judge is an Obama appointee, is no good
The Megyn Kelly Show
Lawfare 2.0 Fighting Trump, and Sparring with Newsom, with Charlie Kirk, and Former Female Athlete Speaks Out | Ep. 1029
And I'm so thrilled that the Trump administration is holding the line here to set a proper precedent that no district court judge should interfere with the president United States ability to execute and perform foreign policy.

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Yeah, I want to defend the president here because understand the cultural context of 2017 through 2021 when he served. This is before the Great Awokening. At least the later part of presidency was during kind of the whole Florida Palooza woke stuff. And there was still remember how powerful it was when somebody called you a racist in the media that still had a ton of cultural power.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And no, no, of course, I don't say this sarcastically like the president and his team. I'm not saying that they were ever presented with this as a major problem, but there was not a nationwide dialog around merit versus race based hiring. And certainly there was this kind of sort of Damocles
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
that all public servants would walk around with of, my goodness, if they call us a racist, the entire presidency could end, so let's not do anything that might upset that apple cart. Now, I'm not putting any words in the president's mouth, but I'm just trying to defend the cultural context of everything that was happening during those couple years.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
What happened in 2020, obviously during COVID, and all the CRT, DEI, Robin DiAngelo, hate white people, tearing down statues, was a mask-off moment for what their agenda actually was.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And credit to this program and credit to the conservative grassroots and credit to our members at Turning Point USA that fought so hard to educate the masses through 2020 and 2021 and 2022 and 2023 that created such an overwhelming outpour where President Trump felt the support of the American people to sign such an executive order on day one.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And let's be honest, in 2018, this was happening a little bit on the edges, but it wasn't a, well, you know, we're going to have DEI. It'd be a really interesting question if we could go back and poll the American people, how many people would even know what DEI was in 2018? Now, I would imagine the vast majority of people who watch the news know what it is.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And so the president acted correctly because we saw the excesses of the diversity equity inclusion regime and also back in 2017 2018 2019 there was this belief in conservatism well you know we have really good intentions and maybe we can work with some of these better goals to try to diversify the workplace and they took total advantage of us obviously it turned into an anti-white
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
anti-Western, anti-Christian agenda. It opened the eyes of those of us with common sense sensibilities, and President Trump acted correctly in his first couple days in office.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, yeah, thank you. And a lot of people went through that similar journey. Millions of moms and millions of parents would growing up, never want to be called racist or have their kid be called racist. And that word lost all of its meaning. Obviously it got diluted beyond any sort of potency because they would call everything racist. They would say waking up early is white supremacy.

Remember the Smithsonian museum? It, it is the most legendary and best example.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
being on where yes exactly the african-american exactly the african-american history museum chartered by the smithsonian said being on time speaking correctly doing math the scientific method they are all outgrowths of a white supremacist worldview i mean at that point you just have to say okay these people are insane this is a pathological mind virus that I don't want to attach myself to.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And then I also think there was this undercurrent of people that were called racist just for breathing and existing, not for any action, that you are inherently racist because the color of your skin, that you are inherently racist if you are a white person. So the majority of the country is inherently terrible. Okay, so then how do we reconcile it?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Oh, there is no way that you could actually ever get forgiveness. You must be in a perpetual state of penance and bend the knee and redesign all of society just because of criteria based on skin color. Well, that's tribalism. That's not meritocracy. And so I think we all went through this very healthy process.

kind of opening of our eyes and all the people i did scholarship on the c r t issue and the d i issue deserves such credit for showing us the marxist roots in the fundamental uh... toxins that were kind of under girthing this and then it we see okay we win an election

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
presented this to the american people and the president acts on it but i do think it's important for people to remember we are in a profoundly better place culturally than we were in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen our instinct and look at pete hegseth it's a very interesting question if the and by the way thank you for your support of hegseth and bobby i know we'll probably get to that but if pete hegseth would have come under similar criticism in twenty seventeen for trump's first cabinet does he survive

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
i don't know i don't know if we had now the metaphorical muscle as a conservative movement to do it i will say the one kind of trial by fire where we decided to stand up to the mob was brett kavanaugh that was probably the beginning of a turning point we realized we were up against like completely like a nuts brigade of people that just want to burn it all down but if pete hegseth would have become the secretary of defense in january 2017

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
when Trump just got elected, I would conjecture he would have failed either a Senate vote or his nomination would have gotten pulled, not because of on the merits, but because as a movement, we were still being held hostage by the major networks, by the oligarchs, by the mass opinion of the elites. And look how far we've come for the better. Look at this journey that we've been on.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
now here in 2025, and the president deserves credit for a lot of things, but I know for me personally, I would imagine you too, Megan, him teaching all of us that when you're under attack and you have done nothing wrong, you don't apologize, you defend yourself, and you double and triple down, will go down as one of his greatest lessons that he helped communicate to millions of us.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
yes and and here's the really awesome part about winning the white house is now the f a a can settle with these individuals and set a precedent make them whole and change the policy permanently throughout the entire agency and so we're biden would have had his solicitor general in all of his little you know legal gremlins of go and fight in the courts you know for ad nauseum and try to get most of this mess the trump administration can now look at lawsuits like this by way there's thousands of such lawsuits
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And it's called the sue and settle strategy. The left does it all the time, right? So they'll sue the government with the intention of actually trying to get a settlement that sets a precedent or a rule change or regulatory change that they would want. And they would do this on immigration all the time.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, now the new Trump FAA, once he gets his FAA administrator, who I bet is just going to be amazing, and I bet the president will personally interview that person. I could tell you not every political appointee was the president going to interview. I bet the president is going to have tryouts for whoever's going to run the FAA.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I think you're going to have to go straight to the boss on that one, is that they can then work with the Department of Justice and say, hey, here's this lawsuit. Number one, we didn't make all these people whole, so we need to give them a settlement of some sort, some monetary settlement. Number two, we can offer them jobs if that's actually what they want at this time.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Number three, let's go into all the documents and even further into discovery and then settle and get this lawsuit so that all of this is fixed. that this is no longer going to be happening anyway. So that's the positives of winning such an election when you have very, very meritorious lawsuits like this that are working their way through the courts.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Secondly, Megan, I do want to broaden this just for a second, that these hiring practices are not just for air traffic controls. We have this in the FBI. We have this in the Central Intelligence Agency. We have this in almost every single portion of government. And the president deserves such credit over the last couple of weeks. and his shock and awe strategy flooding the zone.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Democrats do not even know, they can't even remember what they're supposed to be mad about because Trump is moving so fast. They can't even remember the things that they're supposed to be angry about. But the one where I think he deserves such enormous credit was his repeal of the executive order that put affirmative action in the federal hiring practices.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
That's been on the books since Lyndon Baines Johnson. Congress did not vote for it. This had not come from the Senate. It was a simple executive action, executive order. Here it is. And no one has dared question it. President Trump got rid of all affirmative action or hiring practices, which now means we have merit in every single agency. Now, the implementation of that is going to be difficult.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It's going to be hard because they're so used to finding irrelevant criteria to grow the bloat and the federal bureaucracy. But that kind of moral courage, and I'll tell you, if we would have had two Trump terms in a row, I don't know if we would have had this. I don't know. I can't say either way.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Do I think if Trump had two, if he had two terms uninterrupted, we'd be seeing a repeal of affirmative action?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
probably unlikely i think the four years of exile was horrible for the country but very very good for the president and his team to come out with such gusto such spirit such zeal and preparedness and so in some ways it was good uh it was good for us that president trump had four years off because this makes the next four years even better
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I know. And again, I'm sure we'll get to it, but the ending gender mutilation one, the chemical castration one, that one-two combo, I mean, this is exactly what we worked for. This is why you spoke at the rallies, why I worked as hard as I did for executive orders just like this. Now, the challenge is going to be
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
not just implementing it but making sure that schools are following it and this is where the money is going to come in whereas that if you are going to continue to do the crt dei gender insanity stuff there will not be federal funding for your school so choose which one is it exactly and the remember how cruel biden was on the transgender stuff for k-12 schools he was so cruel that he was even holding back school assisted lunch
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
for kids if they did not allow men to come into female locker rooms in high schools. This was a lesser reported, I remember you tweeted about it at the time, but they were holding back federal funding for this. What the president is doing is he is sending education back to the states, empowering parents, and getting rid of the central planning
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
from the Biden administration, where they wanted to try to spread all of the most radical ideologies imaginable into our K through 12 schools. Included in that executive order, Megan, is also the reestablishment of the 1776 commission, which is a very exciting project, which promotes patriotic education. It is establishing a committee for the 250th birthday of America to celebrate our country.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
So as we are no longer funding the bad stuff, we want to elevate the good stuff.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
which is our country is a great country one with a lot of potential with of course some things in our past that we need to deal with but we're still the greatest nation ever to exist we are a people that with a great bravery and great courage that have overcome difficulty better than any other nation in the history of the planet we need to teach our kids that we need to teach our kids to be proud of our country and thankful to be in our country to have gratitude when you view the united states of america not contempt or bitterness and so the 1619 project
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
which was, again, it was really ascendant during that 2020-2021 period, is going to be put to rest thanks to, again, another amazing executive action and order from the president. And again, we're not even two weeks into this yet.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
why i can definitely say on first and foremost immigration but you're gonna see dramatic action to try to make the immigration executive orders permanent and have legislative assistance and support from funding from no more the sanctuary city thing has to be addressed once and for all the fact that we have cities that are under united states of america that are receiving federal funding that use our dollar and are part of our country to say oh we don't like that federal law
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
We're going to actively resist it. That is insubordination and potentially treason against the United States. So we have to come up with an even sharper legislative tool to go after any of these sanctuary cities. But yes, look, the debate right now is, do you want two bills or one big, beautiful bill? I think they're trending towards one big, beautiful bill based on all public reports.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And in it is going to be a lot of these issues. And we need to think to ourselves, okay, what does that look like? Well, I would love to see Congress go big and say that we are outlawing any sort of gender transition surgery or therapy for people under the age of 18.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
i think we should go really big and whether or not republicans will go along with that we'll see but the president has the moral clarity to sign that executive order what the president signed to protect our children against this transgender mafia against these medieval witch doctors that are chopping off these kids breasts is maximally what a president can do on this issue i mean it was so robust
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It is so thorough. Don't be shocked if some of it gets struck down in court because it is so good that the left is going to come back twice as hard because it goes at the jugular of this moral crime that has been occurring in our country over the last couple of years.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
secondly i mean we could go through the litany of issues we would love to see the department of education closed now whether or not congress has an appetite for that remains to be seen but the president campaigned on that he has said it he wants to send it back to the states which is where it belongs on energy i think we'll be able to get some good legislative action to further open up uh drilling and bring down um the price of oil and the price of natural gas
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
which will, of course, help with inflation. But the big one I think you're going to see is immigration. I think that is the big one, because we have to make sure that, God forbid, another Democrat president comes in the future. We can't have a third world jailbreak like we did under Joe Biden, where we become the dumping ground of the entire world.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
We have 100 different countries coming across our border and millions of people. We have no idea who they are. We have to make sure that we have permanent border security, regardless of who is president of the United States.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
You know, I have to say, following him and knowing him for almost a decade, he just, he doesn't seem as if he's intimidated by the office at all, that it's too big for him. He's just in the moment. He's ready. He has an answer for every question. And what a contrast from the prior administration that we just closed the door on. And it looks as if he's having fun.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Again, this is a tragedy, this last thing. I think this has been a tough moment for all of us. And Again, the president just looks ticked off, not at his agencies or anything, just ticked off at the situation, as he should be, by the way. A president should get mad when a lot of people die in a preventable way, meaning that this was not a natural disaster. This was not a hurricane.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
This was human beings that were doing things that were either wrong, incorrect, incomplete, not properly trained. But yes, the president is in great fighting form right now.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And I have to defend the president here. He actually did not blame DEI for the crash. He blamed DEI for a dropping in the excellence of aviation standards. So he used it to make a broader macro point. He did not say that there were individual specifics around it, but he did say that I, as president, am getting rid of any risk
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
that things like this will happen in the future because DEI will lead to things like this in the future. So again, it's a complete misrepresentation by CNN and the major networks with which you would expect.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
it is and i want to reiterate a point which is that he he's super ticked and angry and he remember he's a builder do you remember trump owned an airline for some time he's not new to these sorts of concepts he wants a country that works if you go back into 2015 and 2016 a common theme when he was originally running for president was our airports are falling apart we can't build bridges our roads are a disaster
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
He cares deeply about transportation. He cares deeply about equipment. And you could look at Pete Buttigieg's like, and look at this mess that you just handed me. He's like, I got enough stuff to fix. And now we are a laughingstock of the entire planet. And that's basically what he's saying there is that Pete Buttigieg with his line of BS talking about racist roads and equity in transportation.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And America at its best has always been the leader in such transportation. We were the first in flight. We got to the moon first. We are the ones that helped build the railroads. And so we should be the world's leader in transportation. And I think the president, if I were to infer, I don't I can't say this under anything else.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I think the president is really ticked because it doesn't make America look good. on the world stage there were russians and chinese that died here and it's unacceptable and he believes that and i thought again i thought duffy did an amazing job in the press conference whereas you know this is this is largely the transportation agenda that we've inherited from mr budaj
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Oh, I agree. And I know we're short on time here, but just look at how social media savvy and how they're almost designed for social media. I mean, this is going to be an administration that will reach tens of millions of people. Bobby Kennedy doing health, Tulsi Gabbard, hopefully at DNI. You know, Kash Patel, FBI, Pete Hegseth with his sleeves rolled up as DOD secretary. I mean, come on.

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
This is a new age digital administration that is willing to articulate, defend, and promote the agenda that the president has put forward. I'm super excited for it. I thought the same thing, where it just looks as if there's energy.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
there's spark yes and these are people that have done a lot in their life that are ready to govern the country i couldn't be more excited these are not your typical washington bureaucrats that biden would pick these are change makers qualified with the energy to save the country

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
so a couple thoughts on this uh... i will defend susan collins she represents a very very difficult state she's almost always there when we need her and that's an important thing and so i think she's getting the call of like hey we might need you for this one understand we did not need her for hegseth and so i mean of course we got to a time we had jd vance break the tie pete hegseth is now the secretary defense and she represents a goofy state
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
for some of these other senators that represent deep red states there is no excuse and there is no place to hide but let's understand what she's actually trying to become which is applying for the director of national intelligence This is a relatively new role. It hasn't been around for very long.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It was created post 9-11 to actually be the connective tissue between all of the intelligence agencies. It actually is above the Central Intelligence Agency, above the CIA. It has power that has not really been exercised for quite some time. DNI is the custodian of the nation's secrets. It is the keeper of secrets.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
from all the things that our government is doing that they don't want us to always know what they're doing. And the most pressing, of course, that matters to those of us that are Trump supporters is, is there another soft coup being run through five eyes to try to thwart a sitting president of the United States, like what happened during the first administration during Russiagate?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
with Christopher Steele and the dirty dossier to spy on President Trump to try to go after him and using the FBI and using secret skips and using outside firms like Fusion GPS. Is something like that happening again? And the director of national intelligence will be able to tell you yes or no and stop it if it's actually happening in real time. Tulsi Gabbard is an extraordinary person.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Her vet file came back like clean, clean, clean. She actively has a top level security clearance, a TSSCI. She serves in the military. She was a former Democrat, which makes this even more interesting because she has been so focused on trying to reorient
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
American foreign policy to a America first standpoint, not one of neo-globalist, internationalist wars and nation building at every single corner and every turn. Now, why is it that her confirmation is the hardest of all of them? Well, because the Intel agencies are so resistant to any change.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And a lot of these senators, to be perfectly honest, have been fed BS by these Intel agencies for so long and acting as if that they've done nothing wrong and we can't reform them and it's jeopardizing national security. Well, on the other side of it, how much damage has our Intel agencies done? We invaded Iraq wrongly, by the way, because of faulty intelligence on weapons of mass destruction.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
We got involved in Libya, something we never should have gotten involved in, which turned into the Libyan civil war because we were told Muammar Gaddafi is like the worst person on the planet. Or how about all the faulty intelligence in the Russian-Ukrainian war or the faulty intelligence that we've seen all across the Middle East and Syria or in parts of Lebanon?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
What Tulsi Gabbard wants to do is restore the integrity of the nation's intelligence service. Now, there's some interesting elements in here, and I've been really hammering this unsuccessfully, by the way. I think it's outrageous that they're not doing this vote in public.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It is the only agency official where I think the CIA may be, but that one wasn't as controversial, where they go into a SCIF, a secure compartmentalized information facility, and they do this vote outside of the public eye. And I think that's outrageous.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I think when you're trying to elect somebody who's a lifelong transparency advocate and you're going to go into a secret facility and we can't see how the actual members vote, I find that to be repulsive. I think people should be incensed about that. I think that our elected officials should not operate in the shadows, that they should tell you how they vote.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And so just to reiterate, when they actually end up voting for Tulsi Gabbard, This will not be like how they vote for Bobby Kennedy, where they sit out and they say, aye, aye, nay, aye. Okay, the ayes have it, goes out of committee. They go into a secret room where no cell phones, no staff, only members are allowed in a secure compartmentalized information facility.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And they'll say, well, what do we think about Tulsi? And they'll take the vote and they could decide to make the results public, or they could lie about the results, or they could do vote trading. I mean, I think the front page of a certain newspaper says democracy dies in darkness.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Hey, Washington Post, any interest in this one where our elected senators are going into a skiff to go determine the future of who is the custodian of our nation's secrets? If that is not darkness, what is darkness? Because we don't know how Mike Rounds is going to vote or Todd Young. Please. Yes.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
So we have we have to keep the one element of hope is that the chairman of the Senate Intel Committee is Tom Cotton. He has voice support and he went on Sean. Yeah, he went on Sean Hannity's program and he said that he thinks Tulsi is going to get confirmed. So here is my hope.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
My hope is that senators who really don't like Tulsi are going to go in this skiff, and they're going to feel all the public pressure, and they'll say, guys, let's just vote to put her on the floor. Now, understand, you can vote for her in committee and then vote against her on the floor, which is probably the deal that they're brokering with Susan Collins, to be perfectly honest, right?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
That they say, hey, just get her out of committee. Now, once it's on the floor, there is no skiff. There is no hiding. That is in public. My hope is that the senators will all talk a really, really good game. But when that roll call actually starts to come, that they might falter. So we have a 53 Senate majority, which, so you kind of go with this. Okay.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
McConnell is probably a no because he's just the worst. Let's just say that John Curtis from Utah is a no that gets us down to 51. So you could lose one more. Will Susan Collins come through for us in the end? Will Murkowski come through for us? Well, how will Langford vote? How will Todd young vote? We don't know, but this yeah. Cornyn, I think corner will end up voting for her.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Look, if Cornyn does not vote for her, he is done in type.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
though he is done in texas by the way if he does not vote for a vote for bobby kennedy and i'm that's not a veiled threat like it's all right now there's very well funded opposition that is being mounted he's in a deep red state he he he's already in a lot of ways deeply unpopular we've set a turning point action but if you oppose president trump's nominees and you are from one of these red states we are going to fund a primary challenge against you we've been all very open about that and in fact we were unafraid to issue those kind of salvos during the whole pete hegseth
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
situation in December and obviously helped contribute to the reversal and the pivot from that. Pete Hegseth went down from a 1% to 2% chance of becoming Secretary of Defense to now just doing an extraordinary job. So I don't want to say, okay, what is the percentage chance of Tulsi advancing? If she gets out of committee, her chances will improve dramatically.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Her fight is in the committee, which of course happens in the shadows and in the darkness.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, yeah, first, I mean, it's an unspeakable tragedy. I can't tell you how many times I've been a passenger on that same approach, probably over 100 times, right over the Potomac, right into Reagan National. In fact, where our hotel was, we were in D.C. when this was happening. The boom and the sound woke up our son. We were in a hotel right over the Potomac.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
But Bill Cassidy is being so stupid. We test for hepatitis B in utero. So we know if the mom has hepatitis B. That's how we're talking about. It is a mandatory like minute one vaccination in certain states. Thankfully, in Arizona, even the nurses are like smart decision. We say no hepatitis B because it has lost all trust and credibility in the rank and file. A lot of progress is made on that one.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
But this is a deeper question. Can we even criticize the child vaccination schedule at all? Like, you're trying to tell me I have to give my eight-month son the COVID vaccine? Why? Prove it to me. No, I'm not doing that. So Senator Cassidy should really, I mean, again, I hope he comes and votes for Bobby Kennedy, but he should be challenged as well.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
The childhood vaccination schedule has become insane. I can say this as a father of two kids, the rapidity, and also what they are vaccinating for are things that i think a are not necessary to be inoculated against always i mean chicken pox is debatable i chicken pox growing up i can understand the argument both ways but what is the safety safety and the efficacy of these vaccines
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And all of a sudden, all the LNS, the lights and sirens, started to go off. Hundreds and hundreds of them. We were wondering what was going on. So, look, I'm far from an expert, so I don't want to try to speculate on this. It's very unusual. It's very, very confusing. I think that we have the right people to tell us the truth on this. I think Sean Duffy has been doing a great job.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
is it necessary is it do you have to go through the entire schedule are there any side effects then it almost gets to this place where it's like we shall never question vaccines they're nothing but great megan i'm sure you know people that have been vaccine injured and it's a very serious thing and they are they are treated as if they are like modern day cultural lepers they're not allowed to be talked you know talked to you're not allowed to be considered and
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
the coveted vaccine in particular we had nancy mace who came out and said that she's had health problems that have never um that have never changed since she got the coveted vaccine and we were told that it was safe and effective and yet then we look at all these studies that they reference it turns out that there's a lot of corruption in the medical and scientific literature a lot of these pharmaceutical companies are funding these studies again all of us are pro-vaccine we want vaccines to be safe and effective obviously but i'm also a free thinker and i'm not just going to carry the water
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
for people that have done nothing to earn our trust and so i hope we can win over senator cassidy um i i find his comments to just be laughable in some ways because anyone knows that okay the hepatitis b vaccine in particular yes if a mom has hepatitis b which we test for then give the kid the vaccine but within minutes of a child's birth you're trying to tell me that there's no side effect for pumping them with a hepatitis b vaccine which is completely necessary
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I think is wrong. I think it's one of the reasons why we need Bobby Kennedy so badly. So I certainly hope he'll end up voting for RFK.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And talk about trial by fire. My goodness. I mean, you hit this accomplishment of being Secretary of Transportation and
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
No, and by the way, the COVID vaccine is now on the childhood vaccination schedule. So there are 18 months olds that are getting the COVID vaccine. Like, yeah, that's never going to happen. We're not doing mRNA gene altering technology. By the way, what is the risk if my kid gets COVID? Incredibly low, like remarkably low for infants and for kids that get COVID.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
four or five hours later you're being rushed to the worst plane crash since 2009. i thought i think president trump has been terrific you know in his press conference you could tell president trump was ticked off not really necessarily at a particular person but you could tell that he was ticked off at the loss of innocent life so unnecessarily and i hope people understand that that was
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
So there's a lot to unpack there, but I think also Shouldn't the broader question be, okay, vaccines causing autism, whatever, fine. Not going to get into that, but what does cause autism then? Why is it one in 30? Can we have a discussion of that? Are there other environmental pollutants? Are there other neurotoxins that we haven't addressed? Is it our diet? Is it radioactivity?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I don't know, but something is causing it. Something is causing this massive spike, and yet Bobby is the criminal for noticing. You see, Bobby is the enemy for noticing. And the old expression goes, to find out who controls you, find out what you can't criticize. And we cannot criticize our public health authorities.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And the media is so in bed with it for a very simple reason, which I hope the president and Bobby Kennedy get rid of, is you're allowed to advertise on these networks so shamelessly that they have bought the entire media industrial complex. I was laughing. watching the bills chiefs game. And I was watching a football game doing work.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And all of a sudden the most ridiculous commercial ever pops up where it's like some guy running through a meadow and they list all the side effects of these drugs, you know, might cause sudden death and might cause all these different things. And I said to myself, there's no way that this ad is persuasive.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
There's no way that there's some guy in Buffalo, New York, watching the bills game being like, you know what, now I need to go buy that drug. No, it's part of a broader strategy, which by the way, pharmaceutical advertisements is actually the lowest cost per dollar return of anything.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
No, it's part of a broader strategy where they're trying to win the goodwill and control these media companies so they get favorable coverage. Yes, that's what it's all about. It's not about promoting their drug. No one cares about it. These are awfully produced commercials. They don't put any energy into it, right?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
They go through whatever DEI thing of some, you know, black dad playing baseball with his kid in the yard. Like, okay, what if
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
whatever it's like i know nothing against that and then they say okay here's it guardians or whatever you know get this drug ask your doctor about it okay no one actually ends up doing it instead what it does is it gives them air cover against any of the journalist class and any of the people making the decisions at these media companies that could potentially investigate them or yes or give them a scintilla of negative coverage
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
in many ways donald trump showing his heart and his like impatience and his uh intolerance for such a situation like this uh there's there's so many questions that we need answered such as okay if there is even a one in a hundred thousand chance that a helicopter will hit a commercial airliner Aren't there other places you could do training exercises?

that monetize the sickness of the country every day. And we are the sickest we've ever been. We are the least healthy we've ever been as a country. So think about it. We're the most technologically advanced. We have the most breakthroughs. We have AI doing half of our work for us right now. Stock market at record highs, yet we're the sickest we've ever been. So how does that exactly work?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
We're the most overweight, the most alcohol addicted, the most drug addicted, the most suicidal, the most anxious, the most depressed that we've ever been.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
and so something is fundamentally wrong and of course it go you've heard this before we have a sick care system not a health care system and these major conglomerates have no interest in actually having a healthy population in fact a healthy population is a threat to the bottom line of eli lilly a healthy population is a threat to the bottom line of pfizer astrazeneca madonna in johnson and johnson
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
a healthy population means that you don't have to have 13 year olds get on ozembic as we are just having this chat right now there is a simultaneous congressional debate to put ozembic on the medicaid schedule so that teenagers instead of healthy lifestyle or eating better can do a injection every week pill for every ill and that will solve obesity and if you look carefully on cable news because i i know all the interest groups behind it they're running very persuasive ads
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Again, I'm just a layman, so I need someone more educated to maybe fill me in on that. By the way, the near misses, they say, oh, yeah, helicopters and doing test flights, near miss commercial airlines all the time. What are we doing here? Why is this even in the cards? Why are we even considering this? And then finally, of course, it does...
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
They say obesity is killing Americans. Call your senator to say that our government should stand up against obesity. So what they're saying is they're framing obesity as this big problem. Call this number to support this bill. They don't tell you what's in the bill.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
The bill is to put Ozembic on the Medicaid schedule, which would then have kids across the country not pursue healthier lifestyles, but instead have to do an injection for the rest of their life, which has all of these terrible side effects. Right, for the next 70 years.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Oh, and you have gallbladder issues and kidney stones and digestive problems and only also, by the way, supports and reinforces all of your other unhealthy habits, right? Eating, exercise. They are now looking at obesity as a permanent genetic condition, not lifestyle choices. They're saying that, well, it's just the way that you were born and there's nothing that you can do.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
but I know a lot of people that have been hospitalized for a lot of, I know people that are getting surgery because of it. Oh, big time.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I give RFKJ a 60 to 70% chance of getting confirmed.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
uh warrant further examination where i'm most interested in on this very cryptic faa report where they said something was not normal at air traffic control or something was not right or something was highly unusual in the new york times we don't know what that yeah we don't know what that is uh actually they just that was a very cryptic message i full confidence that um secretary duffy is going to actually get to the bottom of this and let us know what that means
The Megyn Kelly Show

No, I just wanted to say to Amy Klobuchar, I mean, she has such a high view of herself as if she had some sort of high priestess of the Congress that no one's actually ever stood up to her. I find her to just be so ridiculous. And Maisie Hirono, I mean, what a smart person, I have to say. I mean, she is just...
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
like so amazing and insightful to listen to uh where she reads her prepared remarks i have to say remember the one where she there was something where she attacked like all men remember that during the brett kavanaugh thing like the men of america need to shut up and need to just kind of get out of the way sounds on brand so I, I, I think cash is just doing phenomenal.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I thought that all three Tulsi Bobby and cash were, uh, in very, very difficult situations. You could tell that they had to kind of hold themselves back at times because there was intentional provocation attempts by the Democrats. But I would give cash Patel a 99% chance of getting confirmed.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Could it be something about someone who's unqualified that was there? I don't know. I don't want to speculate in that. But we do know that The New York Times has reported months prior. And this has been a theme that near misses are becoming more and more, more and more typical in our nation's airports. And it's it's beyond shocking. And just again, there it doesn't.

Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, I mean, look, of course, to your original point, this is what they want mass migration to be. They want it to be the service class of the oligarchy. There are two reasons why they want open borders is they want to make sure that the hedges of the Hamptons are pruned to their liking for the lowest possible wage imaginable. And then they want a ton of voters that keep them in power. That's it.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It's never about enriching their lives or helping the American middle class. It is two things. It's the service class for the ruling class. And then these people are going to vote for us. And of course, she goes right at it. And it is this old trope. It's like, well, who's going to pick your lettuce and who's going to pick your strawberries and who's going to pick your blueberries?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
But not a single person can answer a more fundamental question, which is that. We are quickly going towards mass adoption of artificial intelligence. We are quickly going towards the merging of advanced robotics and artificial intelligence. So that means that more people are going to be out of work, not less.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
So therefore, if more people are going to be out of work and we're going to kind of have an employment, not crisis, but a little employment hiccup that is very similar to how we transition from the agrarian based society to the Industrial Revolution. Shouldn't it be the perfect time to press pause on mass migration?

Shouldn't we probably not have as many people coming into the country because we're going to have a lot of job displacement? And this is not some sort of theoretical. When polled, over half of Fortune 100 companies say that they plan serious layoffs in the coming years because AI is going to replace those workers.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Now, that is high tech work, but also we're going to see this in the manual trades as robotics starts to get put in place. So it begs the question, Why is it they want all these people in the country? Oh, it's for permanent political power. It's not for blueberries. It's for the midterm election.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It doesn't require any further comment than just a awful tragedy that all of us can sympathize with because we've been not just at that airport but on similar approaches like that all across the country.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, as someone who's 31 looking at someone who's 27 be press secretary, I think is phenomenal. And it just goes to show how awful the media is. They have not given her even a little iota of credit that someone in their late 20s can take on the entire Washington press corps. That's a remarkable thing. Yes, I mean, imagine if Joe Biden put some sort of 27-year-old up there.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
It would be the darling beyond darlings. It would be Vote magazine. It would be front page of the New York Times. It would be Meet the Press. It'd be the 60 Minutes interview. So I hope that's not lost on people. That's a 27-year-old taking on the entire Washington press corps. And for everyone out there that has kids in their 20s, I mean, you should use that as an example.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Like, this is someone who has a child who's taking on the entire Washington press corps, the defendant administration that the media hates, that's someone worth kind of looking up to, not Dylan Mulvaney.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
No, but you think about it. It's like, okay, the media says Dylan Mulvaney hero, Caroline Levitt clown. And you just think about who we elevate as heroes and villains. It's so backwards. So I think she's doing a great job. In fact, we've known her a while at Turning Point. We endorsed her when she was running for Congress in New Hampshire. She's had a great career ascension.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And it's really interesting. She was kind of Kaylee McEnany's number two. So she was in the building running. working and saw it and probably has been practicing for her entire last couple of years. So it's just great to see. And I thought she was adequately prepared. I thought she was incredibly sharp. I thought her answers were perfect. And I got to give her credit.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
That answer right there is spot on. That is more and more clarity than you would expect from any Senate Republican, which is exactly right, by the way. Definitionally, you being in the United States,
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
illegally is a crime entering the united states is a crime and what she did is so smart you reject the premise they're all criminals actually by the way if you don't like that then go to congress and change the law you don't get to choose which laws you like and don't like the executive branch follows what congress has passed congress passed that it's illegal to come into the country and stay in the country without inviting without crop yes to sneak into border jump
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And so by definition, they are all breaking the law. And I think Caroline has just done a remarkable job.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Yeah, and just I want everyone to understand this, which is the Haitian government said something similar, where they said if we return Haitians back to Haiti, it would destabilize their country. Oh, that's the point, actually. So if you can't even accept your own people, we're not talking again.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
I would sympathize with the argument totally, by the way, if we were sending like Nicaraguans to Mexico or Mexicans to Nicaragua. Totally get that right. Like another country should not be forced to take other people's.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
people but that's the point isn't it we're actually being forced to take other people's people right and so that and everyone be like oh yeah of course you shouldn't send brazilians to honduras or hondurans tell salvador and so but this goes down to the the entire dichotomy that we're in this binary way of looking at things where the biden administration looked as if we've done such evil as a country the way that we repay all of this all of our guilt
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
is by coming the world's dumping ground. There's nothing we can do about it. You guys can come here and that we must just kind of absorb you. Where we have a view, say, wait a second. No, if you're not invited into a place, you're not welcome into that place. And if Mexicans own people is going to destabilize their country, then what exactly does that say about it?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And that's about the people that actually coming back. And secondly, let's just look at the Colombian example. President Trump did a masterclass on the whole Columbia situation over the weekend. I mean, it was like 10 out of 10, A++. It was incredible.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
But if the Colombian government was even flirting with the idea of wrecking their entire economy over a couple dozen illegal migrants, what does that tell you about the couple dozen illegal migrants? Who are these people? Why are they willing to put up such a fight? How bad are they? They don't want them back. And so if they don't want them back, that should be. Yes.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
But I mean, like at the same time, that should be more confidence for us to expel them from our country in an orderly way.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Oh, there's more coming.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, a couple of things. Number one, there are more executive actions and orders coming. But secondly, we now have to fulfill these executive actions to make sure that they are not undermined by the actual rank and file of the federal bureaucracy. There's a couple of major fights that are going to come to a head, which is the Doge team.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
When all of a sudden they say that these departments no longer exist. What happens if the departments say, no, they do exist? What happens when they're going to start leaking and defying orders? So there's a whole fight that's going to happen within the federal bureaucracy. Trump is going to win that fight because he is in charge of Article 2.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
We don't have a fourth branch of government of the federal bureaucracy. No, it is under Article 2. The president is in charge. What the president wants, what the president gets. We must curtail and rein in this idea of the permanent administrative state. And then Congress is going to start moving.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
You're going to see a lot of good pieces of legislation and the president is going to bring the price of energy down. We're going to see inflation go down. So I'm just thrilled with the pace at which the president is operating. Uh, and we're not even two weeks into this and I just think tens across the board and we still have another four years basically of this.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
So I'm thrilled and all ideas are on the board to make America great again, to bring us back, uh, to prominence and greatness. This is why I work so hard. This is why you work so hard and praise God that we're in the situation that we're in.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Thank you, Megan. Talk to you soon. Thank you.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
Well, no, that's right. And again, we don't know the particulars of this situation, whether or not that played into it.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
But what it does is it should beg the question for every person that is now trusting their life by going into a commercial airliner, would you rather have air traffic control that is there because of merit or there because of race, that is there because of qualification or there because of some silly and
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
irrelevant piece of criteria that that they were hired for and i sure hope that the president gets the credit he deserves for signing that executive order just a couple days into his administration saying that new hiring practices for high stakes for all things but especially high stakes environments like air traffic control is going to be based in merit
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And this goes to show how the prior administration started with Obama and it really accelerated under Joe Biden, where we saw some of this criteria where the FAA was even saying that we want to hire people potentially with physical disabilities and mental disabilities. And it goes to show that these two things cannot coexist. The diversity obsession and merit based excellence cannot coexist.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
They cannot. So you have to choose which one you want. If you go in the direction of a diversity obsessed society, you will plunge into mediocrity at best and most likely substandard ways of living, catastrophic events almost assuredly. However, if you prioritize merit, then
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
you are going to be able to have a higher standard of living you're going to be able to have breakthroughs you're going to have planes be able to land with confidence and we could apply this over all sorts of disciplines from surgery to health care to education who do you want doing the things that you care the most someone that is there that knows what they are doing and earned it or someone that didn't earn it and dei can otherwise be said diversity inclusion or didn't earn it dei
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
They're there for reasons not based on earning or merit or their agency or their free will, but because it was just given to them because we need to fill some sort of pre-existing characteristic criteria box. So my hope, Megan, is that this is a wake-up call. Yes, exactly, a wake-up call. And the only quota we should care about is do we have enough people that are the best?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And the best cannot coexist with political-based, hierarchical, highly driven diversity obsession and so america chose merit at the ballot box overwhelmingly chose merit when presented in public opinion polls americans want merit over affirmative action they do not want quotas we want to be an excellent country not a substandard mediocre european country
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And so my hope is that this will further the mandate that we can purge anyone from the federal ranks in whatever job that they are for people that had to be given special accommodations on test scoring, on employment checks, on performance reviews because of their race or because of their gender.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Charlie Kirk on Tulsi and RFK's Fight Ahead, DEI vs. Merit, and Elites Against Trump's Immigration Policies | Ep. 997
And I sure hope this will prevent future catastrophes from occurring because, Megan, as you know, near misses are becoming nearly a daily thing. and we are playing with fire, and we need the best that our country has to offer in aviation, in healthcare, and across all these different forms of operation in our country.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I want to meet this guy. He's coming to a Turning Point event this summer, Tampa, Florida, Student Action Summit.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You canceled school for like two years. Once one took one day.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It's not me. The president first deserves the credit. But why?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah, but the president deserves huge credit. And I just have to say that as an obligatory thing, because without him, our movement would be small. And you can appreciate that in politics. You have to appreciate the person who is the catalyst.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It was also just the catalyst. It was a cultural moment that just opened us up. But-
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, I was more like, as I mentioned, Ron Paul, Rand Paul libertarian, because that's where the energy really was, right? And then President Trump comes on. Again, I was still very early in my political journey. So you're looking up a lot, you know, who's the top voices? What do you believe? Why do you believe it? Yeah. So more of the libertarian front.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And I still have some libertarian leanings on some people.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, it's funny. I actually sent out a tweet very like 2011 when I was in high school saying Trump should run for office, but I was not mystified negatively. I was like, can this really happen? Can a guy that has no political experience come down an escalator, challenge the whole establishment?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah. And again, this is well documented. Early in my journey, I underestimated the silent majority that really wanted a rebalancing of the American political landscape.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So one is more educational, one is more political. And we did ballot chasing in Arizona and Wisconsin. We were successful in that. Alongside the Trump campaign, Arizona was the best performing swing state.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We were modeling off of some of the ballot chasing, ballot harvesting practices of the left. Yeah. But I mean, there's again, that's a that's a self-limiting principle. You can't ballot chase if no one wants to vote for you.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So, I mean, you could have the best organizers in the world. You have 2000 people chasing ballots in Arizona and you're running Kamala Harris in Arizona. What you actually was and what we end up tracking through our data is that the Democrats were chasing for us. is that they were chasing low-propensity Hispanics thinking that they were all for Kamala.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And in fact, we were looking at the precinct numbers of areas we didn't hit that moved like 20 points in Trump's direction. We're like, well, thank you very much, Kamala campaign, for getting out and chasing our ballots and for all these Hispanic men that are mechanics. We appreciate it. Thanks for... making sure that we also won Dave McCormick's Senate seat.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So again, chasing is only one part of the, like Democrats, of course, are better organizers than us. I mean, it's in your blood. Barack Obama was a community organizer. We make fun of it. It's who you guys are. You guys have labor as a backbone, clipboard and tennis shoes.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We can talk about that in a moment. But what we always felt that we had is we felt we had better ideas and a better message and all that. The idea was, can we combo a little bit of organizing practices with a mass movement, which is how you get a national popular vote victory and a overwhelming electoral landslide.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
where he talked about... Roll over and play dead? Roll over.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So I don't have to. He's read about one thing in the last 40 years. It's economy is stupid. And boy, he spent down that one line pretty amazingly. But yeah, look, I'll say, I don't wanna make this about Carville, but like, yeah, I hope you guys retreat. You kind of like the advice. More for us? You like the advice. I mean, there's no opposition. There's no activist spark.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I've been at this for 13 years, and it's been a wild movement, really accelerated once President Trump kind of came on the scene. Right around, I'd say, 2021, we had a goal. Could we move the youth vote 10 points over 10 years?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You guys are posting these cringe videos on social media.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I don't know, this harmonious thing of like 22 senators all saying the same thing.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Get better ideas, governor. Like, for example, I mean, like if you want to like, you have an opportunity to like, you know, run to the middle and see this man. So obviously you're talking to me of all people. So like you right now should come out and be like, you know what? The young man who's about to win the state championship in the long jump in female sports, that shouldn't happen.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Would you speak out against this young man, A.B. Hernandez, who right now is going to win the state championship in the long run?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, no, but I just didn't realize. It's 890 medals and trophies that we know of in the last five years. That's a lot.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So you asked a good faith question, like how do we Democrats get out of the wilderness?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
this one is an 80-20 issue, New York Times poll, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We're getting crushed on it. Crushed. And you have an opportunity in the state to be like, look, I have a heart for A.B. Hernandez. I have a heart for the San Jose volleyball player. Let's give them compassion. What's not fair is just for like a woman's, entire woman's sports. I agree. By the way, I agree with you.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah, like, can we move it 10 points over 10 years? Ish, you know, approximate. Because our whole hypothesis was, and we, you know, we did this alongside President Trump and his great team, was that this demographic is disproportionately to the Democrat side. We believe Democrats were taking them for granted. We think that your side had no message whatsoever and an ideological monopoly.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I think that, I wish that we would have done this podcast last week. Last week? Well, because the U.S. Senate just voted, every Democrat voted against that bill. And I'm just telling you, like, again, I'm not one to give Governor Newsom advice. You guys are giving us an 80-20 issue.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
that is just permeating the country. It's such an affront to our senses. And you look at these videos, Governor, because it's not just that it's, okay, you read an article about it, but these young men that are, you know, are in these sports, they're throwing around girls and it is an issue of fairness, but it goes to a broader arch narrative. There you go. Which is important.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Which is this, that the Democrats, you guys will tend to view an incident through an oppressed or repressed lens.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It's your training. It comes from college. It comes from, and we as conservatives tend to view things through right or wrong or just or unjust. And the country is going far more in our direction and away from your direction. Because the problem with oppressor oppressed is eventually you run out of oppressors and you start creating them out of thin air.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And you start trying to say, well, these people must be blamed for all of our problems. And that's where you get a lot of the... Let's just say a lot of, for example, there's a Wall Street Journal editorial like, when will the white men shut up or stop complaining? That does no good for anybody, right? So what I'm getting at, though, is it's a worldview difference, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Of course it is because, but it's also pattern recognition. It's pattern recognition of a Democrat party that post 2020 decided to go all in. We call it woke. You might call it, you know, justice or whatever it is, but it's so outside of what we would consider traditional Americans norms and customs.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We saw some of the fault lines there. And to President Trump's credit, he also harmonized with the strategy by going on podcasting and using TikTok. But yeah, I mean, we did it in four years, not 10, large in part, thanks to you guys.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
A Democrat strategist would say, oh, Charlie, you're weaponizing stuff. Not you, but that's a typical thing. But the most effective ad of this election cycle, the most effective ad, you know what it is.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And let's talk about why it was devastating. Number one, it was the trans issue that was just monopolizing.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And then she's like enthusiastically defending it, bragging, being like, I'm all for this. I'm all for this.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And then Charlemagne comes out on Breakfast Club and is like, this is insane. And they ran it on NFL football.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yes. And so you're trying to reach men. It's not like it's not- It's a brilliant campaign commercial.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And I want to make sure this, it's not just that this was like the Willie Horton ad of the 2024. It wasn't just like a Lee Atwater brilliance. It's that it reflected truth that the voters felt. Yeah. Yeah, I appreciate that. Because voters felt as if their country was slipping away. Now, the Democrats have a choice.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You could say to those people, you're racist, you're Nazis, you're fascist, you're terrible. Or you can listen and be like, why is it that a steel worker in Pittsburgh who's voted Democrat his entire life is voting for Trump despite all of the stuff that's been thrown at him?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But it's a pattern, and the trans thing is just one of those things. But the second element was also what we saw under Joe Biden was if you came to the southern border from any country and you spoke the magic words, you could go to any city you're choosing, right? CBP1 border app. And all of a sudden, that steel worker in Pittsburgh is like, why am I paying all these taxes? I get it.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And so I guess my question is to you, what are the Democrats going to do about it?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, it was- Well, I mean, first of all, it wasn't just the projection of certain narratives, which we could obviously go through.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But it's when policy started to come forward. And what kind of policy? Hiring practices.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, it was just called outreach and inclusion. But we saw mass adoption, what we saw. And not only that, we saw pledging of billions of dollars of donations to racial justice from the biggest types of corporations imaginable. Fair point.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
That's what I'm saying. You had a combustible effect.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
What was insulting to a lot of people is number one, where's the money going? Because the top premier BLM charity ended up being a racket, right? With Patrice Cullors, like where'd that hundred million bucks go? So all of a sudden we learned that and all these pledges of corporate dollars were going to this woman that's like hiring her like brother for personal security.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And that like a lot of, and you would even agree like that. No, that became like the poster child for the broader movement. But number two, which I think was most important
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
was that it was, it elevated then this scholarly community that was otherwise fringe like Robin DiAngelo and other people and her book, White Fragility, literally the entire premise of her book is that white people need to stop being so fragile about race. You need to sit down and shut up and hear how racist you are. And she was brought on tours to corporations across the country
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And by the way, just you understand, this was a phenomenon over months and months, and it didn't quite catch up in time for the 2020 election. I do believe that if you guys would have been a little less insane on crime in the summer of 20, you would have completely clobbered us in November of 20. It was like it was the riots that even made 2020 close.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But then it was the extension of all of the what we would call woke stuff. Right. defund police. Yeah. I mean, Minneapolis literally had to hold a special vote saying like, should we still have a police department? Yeah.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But hold on one sec, one sec. You did support Prop 16 in 2020, which would have legalized racial prejudice, right? Prop 16 literally would, and it got to- I have to go back to my Prop 13.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I saw your debate against DeSantis. You're good at this stuff. You know what I'm talking about. Prop 16 would have had legalized racial prejudice, which got defeated by 16 points despite all the institutions. So you're asking me, what did wokeism look like? When California, when all the institutions, yourself included, with all due respect, embraced this insane ballot measure. Guess what?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Even the people of California didn't want racial discrimination.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I found it to be illuminating, though, that despite, I mean, there was really like no opposition. It was like a couple hundred like Asian activists.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But I just want to say, you asked the question, what did wokeism look like? Prop 16 in California that would have had legalized racial discrimination.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I'm just bringing it home to you because there were hundreds of such ballot referendums, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
There was, you know, city council meetings where they said the white people aren't allowed here, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, it's not good. And so what ends up happening is a broader question of sensible, not racist suburban moms that are like, wait a second, I have a eight-year-old white son. Are you trying to say he's a racist? Yeah. And it creates a backlash that then bubbles up, right? I appreciate that perspective.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But Governor, with all due respect, that's happening right now in California public schools. And I'm not trying to drill you on it. I'm just being honest. Like you could say that, but like maybe you should like convene a special session and say like no more, you know, race-based teaching against white people in the schools of California or Asians.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I'm just saying though, that like, this is not a conjecture. It's not a hypothetical. It is embedded into the DNA of the Democrat party.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah, I've always been conservative. Obviously grown in that over the last, you know, 10-ish years. Was more libertarian, I'd say, in the first couple of years as to be expected as I got married and have kids become more conservative.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You have the principles of it. I mean, of course, critical theory is like a PhD level course taught by Derrick Bell and Kimberly Crenshaw.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But the same way that you have advanced physics and the theories of physics in eighth grade, it's like saying you don't have the elements of it. But for example, I mean, it's very simple.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We know of over at least 50 schools in California that do things called privilege walks. Do you know what privilege walks are?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Where they make kids walk ahead based on certain questions, and they try to make a point saying, well, you see, the white people are ahead. They must have white privilege. Okay, I get it.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah, I mean, look, I mean, look, I mean, the, so it's not just acronyms that we dislike for the record, but it's what they- Feels like that sometimes.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, like, I think we can both agree pornography should not be taught to nine-year-olds. Fair point.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So that's a book ban. All right. Well, there were some other books. No, no, no, no, no. That was the Moms for Liberty contention. Time out. Like, I agree on Bill O'Reilly. The Moms for Liberty movement that you made a big thing of was just no porn to 10-year-olds. We agree. So those books should be banned.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So what we should do right now is every California school that has porn in their library should be kicked out.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But no, look, just one of the things we saw in the last couple of years that the Democrats completely ignored and your side was basically not acknowledging it was happening was the crisis that young people were experiencing. That, I mean, just one, it's the first time in America's history that a 30-year-old is going to have it worse off than their parents. It's a breakdown of the social compact.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yes, but no, I mean, again, the Song of Solomon is rather risque.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But what we're talking about in these books is not just the words, it's also the images. And again, your audience can look at the images themselves. Okay, okay. It's highly graphic, but again.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But why do you think moms are doing that? Do you think it's because they want to have mind control or do you think that they have come across incident of incident of highly provocative material?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But for, but let me just, you know, kind of complete the point is that it's easy to just call it kind of a book ban, but when you actually have to read some of these books, it will take your breath away of some of this stuff, right? You're like, okay, you know, we're teaching a 10 year old how to put a condom on.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
This is the exercise of politics though. The exercise of politics is the highest form of community because it blends morality and sociability. So what we do is we have discussion and elections and we have boards and commissions, right? And we as a people say, okay, no porn for 10-year-olds. And that's politics, right? I mean, I'm not saying that there's like some sort of, you know.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I have heard a lot. I've never heard... That's interesting, though.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
If you want to learn, Governor, and I'm happy that there is a movement of moms that is not, that's growing, where they feel as if our kids are being hyper-sexualized. And I agree with them, that they are being, that they have to hear topics. Social media? Well, both in the social media and the classroom.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And I mean, look, again, you signed a law where school districts can't even tell parents if their kids are trans. Not true.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Let me tell you the other way to say this. that a teacher, of course, should be fired if you don't notify a parent of what's happening to their kid. Of course they should be terminated for that.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
They are the most alcohol addicted, most drug addicted, most suicidal, most depressed, most medicated generation in history. And the message that was largely being fed to a lot of young people was lower your expectations. You're not going to have the same American dream that your parents would have. And we saw this as an opportunity, especially with young men.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
said something because they're talking about two different things what you're but there of course should be a penalty measure whether it be termination or whatever if a teacher withholds information from a parent because what you're saying is that there's no way to hold them accountable so you're saying you're accountable to what though accountable to two kids talking about the fact that this is a talking about subject matter all of a sudden now we have to have teachers policing i think speech or conversations you would even agree governor that is an over extreme example what we're talking about no but it's but the extreme
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
example, this was a solution to a problem. What we're talking about is if, which happens a lot, unfortunately, is if a young girl says that, hey, I want to transition, and the teacher accommodates and affirms it, and the parent doesn't even know. I have met parents like that. I heard Trump, and then they come back, and they're like, there's so much extreme.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I will say, and we don't have to wrestle too much on this topic. But you guys will lose on these topics.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And so is your self-awareness is, is helpful to know because it is deeply unpopular. And I think that that is, that is an ascendant political force that is not going away.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Of course I do. But I, but you're not running for office.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I'm running for, you know, head of, you know, most popular TikToker. But no, I'm not running for anything. By the way, should we ban TikTok? Are you? No, we should not. I used to say that. And then I started this.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Because it's politically shady or Trump told you to? Well, no, definitely not Trump. I sent out a tweet and I'm perfectly honest about this. I think you'd respect this is that I was so mad at them because they would ban me all the time. And I sent out a tweet saying like, hey, if you guys are really for free speech as a creator, like, let's see it. Get a call from TikTok a couple hours later.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We're going to show you that we're for free speech. We're going to show you the power of the platform.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And I saw real changes where our campus interactions went from being banned to now well over two and a half billion views on TikTok. And so I wouldn't say expedient. I'd say impact. And also they now have changed some of their speech codes. They've changed some of their Hey, enough where your son is. Your son finds my content somehow. Look, I use TikTok.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And again, this got ridiculed a lot by the press that, oh, you know, they're creating this manosphere thing. Look, they're half of the population and necessary for any society and civilization to succeed, which is to have both strong men and strong women. Yeah. And we went about that in a very unique and creative way.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I just love this conversion. It's a hell of a conversion. Hey, I'm open about it. I appreciate it.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And you control the fifth largest economy in the world.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And again, the president became a cultural phenomenon where no matter what you threw at this guy, he rose above it. And you would even have to give him credit. I mean, 700 years in federal prison, states tried to kick him off the ballot. I know you spoke out against it, but California did have a faction that tried to kick him off the ballot, right? That's right.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Going back to... You're talking about your whining and dying at French Laundry.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Well, I mean, I'm part of it and credit to you for doing long form podcasting because long form podcasting does penetrate different audiences. Right. And our show does very well. But part of the problem of the Democrat Party that for the health of the country would be great to change is that Democrats cannot survive in long form podcasting environments.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It's too unscripted. It's too masculine, honestly. And the Democrat Party's become too feminine.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
To go into the wilderness with no rules and duel it out and see who's better or who's stronger. No, seriously. Democrats can't.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You can laugh, but who in the Democrat Party- We're not. You're right. Will go? I mean, maybe Bernie Sanders, but he only- RFK when he was a Democrat. Bobby, who's now HHS. But there's something to be said that if you want to earn the respect of forgotten America, you have to show them that you can intellectually joust with no script, no hard breaks, no producers in the ears, no teleprompters.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
That's where new media is going. Now, I will only challenge one thing you say. I am reaching new audiences. I'm not talking to my bubble. Because our content is so appealing, it goes in a decentralized way. And it's not just political. No, it's not political. But like, again... Our conversation here is going to go far and wide, right? A lot of people are going to see it.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
A lot of people are going to consume it because it's also politics and entertainment have begun to overlap, right? And the old adage is, well, politics is downstream from culture. I think politics and culture are indecipherable from one another now. Donald Trump became a cultural phenomenon, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You go in to, you know, inner city Compton, you'll see guys with Trump shirts with, you know, the hand up, you know, fight, fight, fight. So what Democrats are doing is you're still playing in a very old, hyper sanitized media environment. And my advice is you got to go where it's unpredictable, where it's treacherous, where it's dangerous.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Now, I would make a more provocative argument that you wouldn't necessarily resonate with, which is that that you guys have not you guys have not built the intellectual muscle over 30 years because you all agree with each other all the time.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Despite all of that, of course, being shot, and that was kind of the crescendo of all of it, he kind of became this figure of an American comeback story. So he personified what a lot of young people, especially young men, wanted back in their politics, which was an ascendant rebel attitude against these institutions that have failed them so miserably.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Trump has completely collapsed the conservative movement. I would push back a little bit. I would disagree. We have a robust discussion.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
That's an important but separate issue. I just want to finish the point and we could talk about Congress, which is that in the Republican Party, we have immense and vocal and public spats all the time. I think you would agree. We fight about foreign policy. Look at Ukraine, right? We're talking about primary challenging some of these senators that were meeting Zelensky last week.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
The Democrat Party would never do that. Now, I think that is a symptom of an underlying thing. We're constantly trying to find the approximation of what truth is. We're trying to use dialogue towards, hey, who's right? What do you believe? Why do you believe it? And it's by no coincidence that out of the long-form podcasting genres, the top 10, eight of them are conservative or center-right.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Rogan, Megyn Kelly, Theo Vaughn, the Paul Brothers, our program, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, There's a singular one on the left, which is Pod Save America, which is just like a bunch of Obama bros agreeing with each other for 90 minutes and saying that we're not very smart.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Well, I think that it's two things. Number one, your upbringing in college campuses does not foster debate like it used to. It just doesn't. It's that it's about silencing the critic and the elevation of the victim. So you do not have the practice of robust having to defend your position. It's very monolithic. It's It's very centralized. It's very top-down. It's quasi-authoritarian.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And then secondly, I would just say that the philosophy on the worldview, as I mentioned earlier, that you guys have adopted is that thou which is oppressed will get the most points. You guys don't have thou that has the best idea wins. Right.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And because of that, you guys have an elevation of like, hey, we're going to eventually we're just going to have a small subset of a minoritarian hectoring hall monitor assistant principal vibe of people telling you that you're not allowed to say these words and you can't say that. And we call that political correctness, which in and of itself is hyper authoritarian.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So if you seek to understand why young men are rebelling. Right. It's like, no, I'm not going to go along with this anymore. Like maybe I'm going to say, for an example, maybe I'm going to send out a stupid tweet when I'm 17 years old. When I'm 26, I shouldn't have to get fired because of that, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I just wanted to be more successful. I love that. What were you drinking? Napa Valley wine. Oh, Jesus Christ.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, but no, I don't drink. But yeah, I mean, look, but first of all, we have the agency to boycott whatever we want, but understand- No, but I mean, in that cancel culture in reverse, I mean, a lot of cancel culture on the right right now. Something completely different. First of all, cancel culture is someone in power using their power to cancel somebody that doesn't have power.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
That's cancel culture. Time out. Hold on. But Bud Light was people that don't have a lot of power, consumers using their agency to say, no, powerful corporation, I'm not going to voluntarily associate with you. But cancel culture has always been the incumbent person with power, a governor, a principal, a boss, a CEO, a corporate board going against the weaker.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We would be like conservative movement MAGA. But yes, I have Turning Point USA, Turning Point Action, Charlie Kirk Show. But when I'm saying we, I mean more specifically kind of those of us that saw this political moment three or four years ago. Right.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
What we did with Bud Light was just a bunch of decentralized folks doing a good old fashioned boycott. Completely different.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But the culmination of cancel culture is somebody who has a power position wrongly canceling.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I said you're becoming the exception. Yeah. You're in the process of becoming.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, I don't care. You can keep it in. Yeah. I used to have respect for Bernie on his anti-war stance, and now he's a complete neocon.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
He's a complete neocon now, so he's not there. Democrats, I respect. Were you a mansion type? Bobby Kennedy, I respect. Tulsi Gabbard. Why are you laughing? Why are you smiling? Because they're on our team now, because you guys kicked out your best people. This is a great point, though, Governor, is that Bobby Kennedy was a heterodox opinion on a thing that a lot of people were concerned about.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Get him! out. He's an anti-vaxxer. Tulsi Gabbard, who is anti-war, get her out. She's a Russian agent. You guys see how you have an unhealthy purification process where eventually you're left with just a 31% approval rating and a bunch of people that are talking to each other.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And meanwhile, we're the ones that have Democrats in our cabinet winning the electoral majority vote because there needs to be said we're If Democrats are serious about being a majority party ever again, when somebody has a disagreement, for example, if there's a pro-life Democrat, is there a place for a pro-life Democrat in the Democrat party? I mean, there should be. Okay.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Not every party or Democrat official would say that, right? And so certain states have different opinions on that.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Trust me, I know. But the issue, though, is that that is a one-stop purity test. We have pro-choice Republicans. Susan Collins is a pro-choice Republican.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
He's more pro-choice than I am, like for sure. But what I'm saying, though, is what you see in the Republican Party is the best, in my opinion, culmination of modern politics and doesn't get appreciated. Look at that ideological diversity. We have people that, you know, geez, they want to go to war with every country that says something bad against us.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And then we have people that are far more dovish, you know, like Rand Paul. But that is a better, more, dare I say, diverse picture. You could say diversity is our strength.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I don't have that kind of pride. I'm not saying, I'm saying right now we are the ascendant worldview, but we could screw this up easily. You have to have the humility to say that. But like, as of the recording of this podcast, we have a majority approval rating, won the electoral, I mean, all that stuff.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It's conceivable that could happen now. I don't say that's impossible.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Oh, I'm not going to give you my best advice. I'll give you like the B or C level advice.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah, I mean, like the biography has been written about a million times, but I mean, didn't go to college, wanted to go to West Point, didn't get in. I'm an entrepreneur. Yeah, love it. Started this organization and it became far more successful than I ever could have realized.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I could design your presidential run in a way where you would win.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
First of all, it's not new to have someone from California run for the presidency. We just beat someone from California presidency.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
California is to politics, to the Democrat Party, as Florida is to our party. You guys have the former Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, right? You have a lot of the ascendant political voices come out of the state. So it's not derangement syndrome. No, it's knowing your enemy and looking at the horizon and understanding what's coming.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But anyway, if I were to give you or somebody advice, I'll give you the B and C level stuff, which is very simple. You have to go to war with your own party on three major things. You got to say, we are not going to do this illegal immigration thing anymore, which includes, like, are you going to work with ICE? We do work with ICE.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Sanctuary policy was never- I would say if you break into the country illegally, 8 U.S.C. 1325 is breaking a federal law, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But it is a federal law. I get it. So by the way, if you're serious about moderating the party, 8 U.S.C. 1325, vast majority Americans- Okay, so we got that.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Vast majority Americans want mass deportations. It's just the thing. Until they don't. Well, okay. That's my humble opinion. Until they don't. Okay. If someone has been here 10 years paying taxes, I don't buy it. But at the moment, you're right. You might be right. The number's bared up. We'll see. Number two, we mentioned the trans stuff. It's in affront to all of our senses. It's out of control.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And the kind of as we started to grow the organization, I recognize that there was a ideological imbalance on a lot of these college campuses. And we wanted to go about trying to offer a counterpoint of conservative ideas. you know, pro-freedom, pro-liberty, you know, America first ideas.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But Charlie Kirk's views are separate than the political advice I'm getting. But if you'd like me to do a whole Charlie Kirk Ask Me Anything, and you could show up to Cal State Northridge on Thursday, it would be huge views.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
If you want it, it's fine. I just don't think that's the best use of our time. But on the political advice is that Americans increasingly believe that their good heartedness and charitable nature towards the LGBT issue has on overblown, especially with youth sports, youth curriculum, and the chemical castration of our kids when it comes to this medical therapy.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And you seem that you want to really, I encourage you governor to learn about some of the butchery under the guise of healthcare that is happening under chemical castration in this state and in other states. We don't spend a lot of time on that, but the American people are overwhelmingly against it. They're overwhelming against it.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Youth should be off limits. I think that's the political direction things are going. You might be right on deportations. I know I'm right on this. I know that this issue is picking up steam. There is no good counter to it. The cast report, the United Kingdom cast report, the NHS came out and said there's no good reason to ever operate surgically on a young person. Puberty is not the problem.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Puberty is the solution. I'm not an expert. in this, but I appreciate your broader- Nor am I, but I'm saying politically, it's a turbocharged issue that is kicking the tail of Democrats. The third one, though, is quality of life. Is quality of life- I agree with you on this one, especially.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You know where I'm going with this. Why is it you were able to clean it up for Xi Jinping, but you can't clean it up- Oh, that was you guys.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Give me a break. No, but Governor, with all due respect, I saw a beautiful picture of San Francisco that looked like Singapore. And then Xi Jinping leaves and the walking dead come back.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But you have to admit, it's emblematic of something that if enough important people show up, it can get clean. So why not make it clean all the time? That's right.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I hope the new mayor can do that, right? He seems to be more moderate than the other.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I'm not here defending every red state or what we're doing, right? No, but I'm making the point.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Quality life's huge, right? Yeah. And then, like, look, the number one thing, which I know you're going to agree with, and I'm sure you'll have a super slick response, right, that's about half true, which is the cost of housing. Average home in California, $850,000.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But that was interesting to me. I think that is. But again, that's not a majority of house purchasing. About one in four houses are bought by private equity. Would you agree to say that BlackRock should not be able to own homes in California?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
A $10 trillion fund shouldn't be able to come in and buy homes.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, it's the idea of mass... Mass asset managers that have $50 billion asset management are now competing against our college grad from Cal State Fullerton.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Oh, carried interest, I think, is a huge problem. And by the way, you know, President Trump has proposed in his tax bill to get rid of- I know, he proposes it all the time, but in fact- Oh, I mean, Joe Biden didn't get rid of carried interest. That is the holy grail of private equity. You know that, right?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Carried interest, I mean- I get it, but let's go back to how- And by the way, you're going to have a revolt in Palo Alto if you get rid of carried interest.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
They're going to light torches and run to Sacramento.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, you have a sitting population of about 20 million kids that are there for four years. There's that. And also, again, you had nowhere to go but up. I mean, when we started in 2012, 75% of kids on college campuses would vote for Democrats.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We agree on the problem, but help me understand this. You guys control the House, the Senate with super majorities, you control everything. Why can't you fix it? You said you were going to build three and a half million homes. You're building like 111,000 a year.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I'm very confident in that in California. Yeah, but you also might see an increase in housing prices, of course.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Yeah, it's just the biggest issue. It's been our biggest problem. California and Hawaii have the two highest housing prices in the country. Hawaii has an obvious excuse. They only have so much land. You guys don't have a lack of land.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You can't take credit for all the assets. You know, number one AI, number one nanotechnology.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
But I'm saying you have to balance both the credit and the blame. I get it. No, I appreciate it. But quality of life, right? 100% agree. So when I talk to a college kid, one of the reasons they saw Trump as a vessel for a better life is that under President Trump, those first four years, we saw a material increase in their livelihood, wages, easier to buy a home, four years.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Now, fast forward to today, this last election cycle, Democrats lost the youth vote in Michigan, nearly lost it in Wisconsin, nearly lost in Arizona. So our goal was, hey, let's move at 10 points. We moved at 13 points. And this is important for your audience to know and for Democrats to reckon with, of which I see no signs that Democrats care at all that they're losing the next generation of
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Four years, like just the facts are, the average wage to be able to own a home in LA, to be able to own a home.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It used to be $75,000 a year. Now it's $145,000 a year. I mean, what it does, and this is, again, it's creating this kind of belief system of Russian serfs of a generation that will never have the material American dream that their parents once enjoyed.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, you got to admit, there's something magical that guy. Joe Biden couldn't do five minutes with you.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You went around the country being like, he's I'll take him at a hundred.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
the cluny and cluny called jack black right but it was it was not that was but you know so much of that focus was all right he just got back from europe but that was the one one time we don't need to get it but i'm not but i i just say governor i'm just on that one topic we saw with our own eyes for three years and the media told us no no he's perfectly fine yeah and then we saw the debate and look it makes us not trust our leaders when we say everyone is perfectly fine it's
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, I see that more sharp acuity. You tell me. You sat with him in the Oval Office for 90 minutes. The guy has a memory of an elephant.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It depends if there's something I want to talk to him about. But I mean, he's just a machine. He'll take every call. You got to give him credit for that. Isn't it amazing? Right? Every call thing's big, right? It's amazing. And he'll listen to every idea. He'll joust it out. He'll talk about it. He always goes back to what did I promise the voters? What was the last idea you gave him?
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Here's my observation. Actually, it was interesting. I said, I don't think Canada should be the 51st state. We already have California, and we have enough libs in our country.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
We're drawing record crowds. Our ranks are expanding. The most support that President Trump has is voters under 30. 60% of voters under 30 support President Trump. That's according to Rasmussen. You might say that's a little rich. It might be, but it's directionally true. And one of the main reasons that this has all been happening
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
is that baby boomers have actually seen their wealth increased the last four years. They don't buy into this whole idea that our institutions are broken or that they're in need of massive bottom up revolutionary change. And we see that actually Kamala Harris did three points better with baby boomers than she did in 2020.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And the number one story that, you know, James Carville, who everyone takes seriously for some reason, should have been saying is like all Kamala Harris had to do was just do the same with younger voters that Joe Biden did in 2020. And she would be president right now.

Again, this is kind of a combination of exit polling. So it's really it's a difficult science to pinpoint.

I had no money, no connections, and no idea what I was doing. Yeah, I mean, we were, I didn't even have a social media account. I mean, it was just the ultimate startup.

By the way, what brings you to California, your favorite state? It is my, ooh, this thing's falling. It is my favorite state in the union. You're doing such a great job here, by the way. No, I'm honored to be on the show. Thank you.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
No, it was even more scrappy. I would literally show up to UW-Madison with a card table and a big cardboard sign saying, debate me. You know, like, here's some provocative statement.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I mean, just, or just- I hope it's not the other. But no, I mean, I guess it would just be, I mean, at the most charitable reading, it could be confidence. It'd also just be that I wanted to try and challenge the predominant view. I always loved debate and disagreement. I love the kind of spar. And yeah, I also find it to be exciting.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And I wanted to try to, you know, figure out where my idea is actually that good and to kind of draw- Stress test.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And I mean, less about debate. I mean, debating is a practice that can really only be refined, you know, with lots of routine and reps and repetition. Just more about studying, you know, the great books, philosophy.

I grew up in Illinois, which Midwest, it was traditionally more of an ACT.

Is that actually still the majority of the country does not have a college degree. And if I may, you know, bluntly critique the Democrat party, you guys have become so college credentialed and educated that you guys snobbishly look on the muscular class of this country, the people that kept things afloat and running during COVID,
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And yeah, I mean, the majority of the country didn't go to Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Caltech, or Cal Berkeley, right? And the Republican Party has become far more representative of them, large in part thanks to Trump. But yeah, and look, I say it with some pride also because as an entrepreneur, I tried to build something, not just seek a credential.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
Well, you're voters. Your voters have become nearly, I mean, the higher you go up the education ladder, the higher the correlation it is that you vote for the Democrat Party. It's almost a one-to-one with PhD. It's like 75% for master's degrees and 65% for four-year college.
This is Gavin Newsom

The sloppy analysis is like, oh, they're smarter, therefore they must be Democrats. And I think that's silly and insane.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I totally agree. The deeper and more profound analysis is that a lot of ideological bubbles that exist on these college campuses, they are homogeneous, not heterodox when it comes to what ideas are expressed. And then secondly, the value system that you leave on college campuses is high trust of institutions. So the biggest divide in America is not right versus left.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It's whether or not you generally trust institutions or you don't trust institutions. And this has been largely inverted the last 20 years. So back in the early 2000s, Democrats were low trust of institutions, Iraq War, anti-Bush, anti-NSA, anti-Patriot Act. And that's when you guys had a lot of activist spark and energy. That has been completely inverted.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So the right is now low trust of institutions where the left is high trust of institutions. We're the ones that challenged the COVID vaccine. We're the ones that think that public health authorities might have lied to us during COVID. We're the ones that don't necessarily believe the government when it says that we should keep on sending money to Ukraine. Again, that's a general rule.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
There are some exceptions to that. But when you go to college, you are trained to trust the experts, trust the scientists, trust the people that are leaders of authority. And the Democrat Party is largely the gatekeepers of that kind of ideological intellectual regime.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
I think it's going to happen no matter what. I mean, in 10 years, artificial intelligence is going to change everything. And I don't know what these four-year degrees are actually doing to prepare these kids for that. But as far as like I'm not I mean, my advocating for the end of the pursuit of learning, of course not.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
That's one of my big critiques is that at a lot of these schools, they're not pursuing what is good, true and beautiful. It's become the oppression Olympics and a weaponized complaint seminar of people sitting in the circle and finding out who's the who's been offended the most that day. That's not doing anybody any good.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
And in fact, it creates a very weak political movement, which I think plays into one of the reasons why we were able to steamroll you guys back in November, is that once there's a little opposition against a group of people that have never actually had to build the muscle mass of a very difficult and unpredictable world, whereas those of us that are conservatives, we're insulted all the time.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So think about the experience of a kid on a college campus. They say they're graded differently because of their views. They may or may not be right. I think they are. But they're definitely in the ideological minority, right? You wear a Trump hat on a college campus, at least until we came around. That was like a big sign of cultural rebellion. So you have two choices.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You can either stop fighting for what you believe in or you become really tough. And you create that muscle that allows you to then carry and shoulder a heavier burden.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
It's just not everyone that goes to college graduates. The national graduation rate- 41% drop or something. Yeah, 41% dropout. Exactly right. Also, half the kids that graduate college will not even end up using their degree- That's true. When it comes to the affiliated jobs. So the numbers are true at the highest income.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
So about 10% of kids that go to college stretch out the averages to be really, really high. Got it. And so, for example, you go to Caltech to study computer engineering and applied AI- Next level.
This is Gavin Newsom
And, This Is Charlie Kirk
You're crushing it, right? You go to Cal to go study North African lesbian poetry.

Play it. You right now should come out and be like, you know what? The young man who's about to win the state championship in the long jump in female sports, that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should step out and say no. No, and I appreciate. But would you do something like that? Would you say no men in female sports?
