Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
Thank you so much, Caroline. Great to be here. Thanks. So I had two questions, if that's OK. Sure. The first one last night and the second on Maine. You talked about behavior from Democrat lawmakers, a lot of disruptions. And I just wanted to kind of go back to that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
We saw Democrat lawmakers not stand for Lake and Riley, for Peyton McNabb, for the son of a slain police officer and 13-year-old cancer survivor. What are the optics of that nationally, just in terms of not just the people who were in the room last night, but across the nation? And also, was President Trump expecting this type of behavior when he was crafting his speech?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Can Democrats Pull Out of Their Death Spiral?
Thank you. And then on Maine, we know that the governor of Maine has really pushed back against the president's executive order saying that boys should not be in girls' sports. I spoke with a lawmaker from Maine this morning who told me she'd been censured by state lawmakers for calling a man a man and speaking up on this.

Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
Hi, Charlie. Thank you for asking me to speak or allowing me to speak, I should say. I just have a question. I have noticed there is a large swing in, it seems like, younger numbers of people coming to Christ these days. And I would like to attribute a lot of that to you going around to the young people around the country. Thank you. Like I said, I grew up Christian. My father was a missionary.

Ask Charlie Anything 209: Keeping TikTok Legal? Winning Political Debates? AI Lawyers?
I was able to live around the country because of that and things like that. So to me, being able to see all of these people getting saved and coming to Christ, do you feel like there's been a big switch in the age gap of people coming to Christ?

My name is Mary and I work for Fernie Store, a charity which provides all sorts of household goods for the whole community. People on benefits only half price. People who are really on a hard time, we do it for... nothing, they're basic furniture and I do the linen. Make sure it's clean and nice and pack it and we sell that but we also give it away to people who need it.

We give them free basic furniture, bedding and cutlery, crockery, everything to start them off. People love to donate because the things that they're donating have still got lots of wear in them. They're maybe just changing them for their decor or whatever, but we get some lovely things. We get lots of people who buy things to upcycle, but people don't want to throw things in the tip.

18 years. When I finished nursing, I thought, right, I've had enough of caring, I'll do something else. But actually, Furniture Store is the most caring place. So I love it, and I love the people I work with. Really lovely people, always. We take young people in who've got difficulties with learning and it's so lovely to see them blossom and then they get jobs, so we love it.

Well, apart from getting me out of bed in the morning, I wouldn't like to just be at home all day doing nothing. I do two days a week and that's lovely.

The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Okay, great. We actually were sold a home illegally, and we are wondering if we should claim bankruptcy.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
So we bought the home in April of 2023, and we wanted to get some things done like fencing and encapsulate the crawl space underneath. And we learned that when we went to go get the property surveyed for the fencing, that the property didn't exist. And so there were no permits. There's no CO on the house. What do you mean the property didn't exist?
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
They told us the property didn't exist in the county. There was no house that was on that property.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
No. We bought the house. We saw the house. The county had no idea the house was built.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
No, it was done through all of the bells and whistles that you're supposed to do with inspectors and real estate agents and lenders and everything. And they still sold it to us.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Yeah, so the lenders were in the bylaws of our contract. They were supposed to get the CO and obtain it five days after closing, and they never did. And then we didn't find out about all of that. This is our first home. We were first-time homebuyers, so we learned a lot in this process.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
So basically, we have a lawyer on it now. We tried to get help without a lawyer and tried to talk to the builder and gave him all the documents and tried to actually get him to agree to buy back the house. He obviously did not agree to that. In the process of all of this, the house is actually, it was creating more mold. The floors are sinking. The walls are leaning. We're starting to see things.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Did you get an inspection? We did, yes.

The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
As a brand new home. He said it was a brand new build. And he actually built it on a 1950s foundation.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
We're not sure. At this point, nothing has happened. No, no, no.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Well, the lawyer's not dragging it out, but there's not really a lot of motion happening, and we just keep hanging him.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
We tried the local news. They told us it was a legal issue.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
No, we can't live in it, so we actually don't live in it.

Get an attorney. Which is what we're trying to do.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
HTDE: Heckling, Yawning, and Imitating, with James Austin Johnson and Patton Oswalt
Well, my question was, when I was a kid in the 60s, we watched TV all the time. And there was this guy, Rich Little, that did impressions, and he was really famous. And even back then I had this question is like, how can he do impressions? Because everyone knows you can't hear your own voice like everybody else does.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
HTDE: Heckling, Yawning, and Imitating, with James Austin Johnson and Patton Oswalt
So how can he imitate people? Because, you know, he can't hear how he sounds. So how can that be possible? And I always had that question.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
HTDE: Heckling, Yawning, and Imitating, with James Austin Johnson and Patton Oswalt
Yeah. And whenever you hear yourself on tape or, you know, on your answering machine or whatever, like. it doesn't sound like me. It's like, that's not me.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
HTDE: Heckling, Yawning, and Imitating, with James Austin Johnson and Patton Oswalt
Oh, all the time. Like, whenever I hear myself recorded, it's like, that's not me. And it sounds like some strange person.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
HTDE: Heckling, Yawning, and Imitating, with James Austin Johnson and Patton Oswalt
Probably not. But I know it just sounds so weird. It's like, that is not me. And people are like, well, of course, that's you.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
HTDE: Heckling, Yawning, and Imitating, with James Austin Johnson and Patton Oswalt
Exactly. I would be like, what the heck?
