Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Yes, sir. So Trump was dead, Charlie. That's the thing we need to remember. These last three days were eat and drink and celebrate, and now we go to work. Today we go to work. And it's important to remember with the new golden age and all the joy and excitement from the past 72 hours that Trump was dead in the water. Murdoch had banned him from Fox News.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Any live appearances on Fox News weren't allowed because He might dare mention the steal. This all happened after January 6th. As you and I know, because we talked about it all the time on your show, he was tied in the polls with DeSantis, right? The billionaire donors had turned their back on Trump two years ago. The Davos crowd declared that populism was dead, Charlie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
They said it was dead and gone and Trump with it. So this guy rose from the grave. He never stopped fighting. I personally, I view Trump as an athlete. OK, I know I view him as a guy who doesn't like to lose. He never likes to come in second. So it never even occurred to me that he wouldn't run again to sort of clear his name.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
But but no one else thought he was going to do it or thought he could do it. So that that sort of needs to be the backdrop. for those amazing headlines that you just showed. And you've been chronicling it every single day. And I know you remember that stuff two years ago. There was serious doubt about President Trump. So it's a testament to, you know, to MAGA Nation.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
It's a testament to the viewers. It's a testament to, you know, populism is about the people. It's about the people pushing and forcing actions. It's not sort of a typical political philosophy. And I really feel like it was the people that made this happen and made it happen for President Trump. So it's just a great day.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Yeah, I sent you a 3 a.m. text. I think that's sort of famous. We talk about it sometimes. I saw, you know, it was six months or so before the first indictment, and we saw it coming, and we didn't know exactly how to react.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
You know, that probably was part of the reason that Trump wasn't doing especially well in the polls, that he was tied with DeSantis, in addition to the donors turning their backs on him, is people didn't know how the base would respond when the indictments came. Right. So you and I, that's what I mean.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
We got nitty gritty into the polls and we were trying to analyze all of this stuff ahead of time. What is the first indictment going to do to him? Right. So that cleared. We looked at the polls two or three weeks later and he was still fine. In fact, he was a little bit stronger. So you and I got a little bit more optimistic. The second indictment, the third indictment, it was the same thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Trump seemed to grow strength. I remember Vivek being the only candidate who showed up in the Florida indictment. Vivek went down to Florida. and gave a little press conference there, an impromptu press conference. You know, we didn't know how the other candidates were going to react. We didn't know how the voting public, and we started to see that Mandela effect, as you coined it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
You know, that Trump was getting more popular, that that even the never Trumpers were starting to see that. And independents included in that were starting to see that this was this was a lawfare. This was this was they're attempting to keep the candidate, the people's candidate out. So we watched him gain strength. And, you know, I know we were guessing the whole way, Charlie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
We were looking at tea leaves. We were reading these polls, trying to figure out if if Trump was going to lose strength, how he was playing, how this was playing out these indictments. with the independents, right? That was really what we worried about was the independent voters.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
And so for all of it to turn out well, and I started to say at the beginning of this broadcast, there's a great tweet that Charlie put up, Charlie never stops working and he never stops worrying. That's something people don't know. And it's a good thing to never stop worrying.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
And I think Charlie finally took, you finally took a deep breath as the inauguration happened and you put that tweet up and people really, really loved it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
I'm a hundred percent on, on, uh, on team Elon for what he did for Twitter. And you're right about it, getting the ball rolling. He made it easy for all of Silicon Valley, you know, Mark Andreessen, David Sachs, Jason Kalkanis, other big names in Silicon Valley. And he made it easy for, you know, young people tend to identify with that and, and, and with sort of that, that cohort.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
And in addition to the work that TP was doing on all the college campuses, there was sort of a, you know, uh, There was a meshing underneath it all that that sort of young men, young women, Silicon Valley, all sort of turning and making it OK to talk about your support for Trump. OK, to admit that you plan to vote for him. We had I put it in the stack yesterday.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
We had the CEO of Uber writing a pretty hilarious explanation of how he went from never Trumper to pro Trump. And now back to Elon. When I talk about being on Team Elon, you know, I don't want to have – I want people to understand that there are shades of gray in everything. We're not always all going to agree on every issue, and the H-1B issue is one of those.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
But Elon showed some ability to compromise there. And – The bigger point, if we didn't have Twitter, Charlie, we didn't have anything. I mean, you've got an army. I mean, there's a Charlie Kirk army. There's a Benny Johnson army. There's an Elon army. And these armies went to work in the final three months. leading up to November.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
And I'm convinced, you know, I really believe that there's social pressure involved in voting and people talk to their friends. And I'm convinced that that social pressure had finally sort of abated, that you weren't allowed to talk about voting for Trump and weren't allowed to to support President Trump publicly.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
So I agree with you that, you know, the day that he first mentioned, hey, maybe I should buy Twitter, you and I both know what that meant. We could sort of see ahead and it turned out better than we could have imagined. And, you know, and I'll throw it back by saying, you know, it's correct. Other than, I can't think of his name now. Oh, Reid Hoffman at LinkedIn.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Other than Reid Hoffman, we had Zuckerberg, we've had Bezos, all led by Elon Musk. And it's just a fantastic feeling. Last thing I'll say is it gives me hope. What it makes me really feel is that we can grow this coalition for JD Vance, assuming he's our nominee. We can grow this coalition over the next 12 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Well, sorry, I was just making vacation plans with my travel agent for a trip to Gulf of America, Charlie. So hopefully I'll see you there.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
JD, yeah. So JD Vance, you remember- You're a junkie like you remember all this. You remember when J.D. was running third in the Ohio Senate Republican primary about two months before that primary. So when you mentioned sort of believing in him first for the Senate, like there were dark days. It's an amazing four or five years for J.D. and what's happened.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Here's the thing that people don't remember. How did it sort of come about that J.D. became the vice presidential nominee? People think back. It all happened at the People's Convention in June of last summer. If people remember, that was around June 13th, June 14th, I believe. And there were a lot of names being thrown around at that point.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
No one had sort of solidified on anything, even through the convention. And Charlie and Andrew ran a straw poll. TPUSA ran a big straw poll at the People's Convention in Detroit. And and that was the first time that J.D. sort of had started to rise above the other candidates. And I remember I get a call. I got a call or a text from Charlie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
I'm driving home from Detroit and I pull over to the he's like he's like, you've got to get this straw poll out. Can you got it? You know, and it was I think it was a Daily Mail had gotten that exclusive call. And I pulled over the highway and I got that published in bright red at the top of the stack that J.D. Vance was the overwhelming. I remember the number. I don't remember. I'll pause here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
What were those numbers on that straw poll?
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Yeah, and that was it though. If you remember a week before that, J.D. Vance was sort of just in the mix with the other candidates polling equally. So something happened and not exactly sure what that was. It was probably some big influence from the base as we all finally got together, right? There had been no convention to that point. That's another reason that was a great convention.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
It brought the base and the people together together in June and, you know, and JD Vance was a favorite and he emerged out of there and it was smooth sailing from there. I think it wasn't any more than two or three weeks after that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Maybe it was all the way at the convention that Trump, I don't remember when he announced that he had chosen JD, but it's really interesting that he goes from third in the Senate primary in Ohio on the Republican side to winning that thing, to raising his profile for a couple of years in the Senate and and then really exploding last summer.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
And, and I think, you know, I think what you said is correct about JD just being a really, really nice person, you know, him. So you're able to confirm that, but it comes across the best and the kids. You know, the way his sons and daughter, they're just, they're great kids. And the way they parent them is so relaxed. And like the Thanksgiving video when I think JD was cooking with his son.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
No, his daughter. He was cooking with his daughter. It's just sweet stuff. These are real American people. They're perfect populists. So I'm super excited. And I'll close it with just saying we really have a chance, Charlie. You know, let's get Scott Pressler turning New Jersey into the next Pennsylvania. Let's grow this working class coalition and let's win 60% for the next 12 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Liberation Day for the J6 Patriots
Yesterday, Charlie, is the biggest day since the day after the election. 19 million page views in the last 24 hours. And you're right. It's not me, man. All I do is work. Yeah, but it's the people. It's the people spreading the word. And yeah, we passed Drudge probably in November was the last time he's beaten us. We're right about 500 million page views a month now. So it's that's unbelievable.

But there's a millionaire's tax on top of it. And I'm 83 years old and I still work. Okay, I have another home in Florida. I don't live there. I prefer where I live. I've gotten used to the fog. to the seagulls, to the cormorants. I know all the birds of the bay. I'm an avid boater. But there's a point at which I will leave this state, and that will be taxation without representation.

Why Christians Need to Stand Up — Live With Riley Gaines at Dream City Church
I understand going after creeps and perverts, but all over social media, I continually see mothers who are trying to redefine the sex of their babies, saying, my little boy is a girl. They dress them like girls. They raise them to believe they're little girls. I know that there's legislation in the school systems against teachers speaking out at children against their true sex.
