1
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: My name is Charlie Kirk.

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 2: I run the largest pro American student organization in the country,

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 2: fighting for the future of our republic.

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 3: My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth.

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: If the most important thing for you is just feeling good,

6
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 2: you're gonna end up miserable. But if the most important

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 2: thing is doing good, you'll end up purposeful.

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 4: College is a scam, everybody.

9
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 2: You got to stop sending your kids to college. You

10
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 2: should get married as young as possible and have as

11
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 2: many kids as possible. Go start at turning point, you

12
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: would say, college chapter. Go start aturning point youould say

13
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: high school chapter. Go find out how your church can

14
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 2: get involved.

15
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 4: Sign up and become an activist.

16
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 2: I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade,

17
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 2: most important decision I ever made in my life, and

18
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: I encourage you to do the same. Here I am.

19
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 4: Lord, Use me.

20
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 2: Buckle up, everybody, Here we go. The Charlie Kirk Show

00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: my family, friends and viewers.

24
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 4: All right, yesterday some of you were.

25
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 5: They were spirited defenders of the president.

26
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 4: You were a little worried about us, and I you know,

27
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 4: I'm just going to say we totally redeemed ourselves. I'm

28
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 4: just going to stand up for ourselves. We did. Blake's

29
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 4: even suspicious of that allegation. But anyways, it's March sixth,

30
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 4: twenty twenty six here in Phoenix, Arizona. So the yesterday

31
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 4: show was quite the wild ride. Especially in hour one

32
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 4: we talked about how young people were skeptical of the

33
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 4: war effort or whatever, we're calling it a strike against Iran,

34
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 4: a decapitation effort. And then we went into Christy No,

35
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 4: and we were pretty blunt. We were upset about some

36
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 4: of the contracting decisions. We're set about her questioning with

37
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 4: Senator Kennedy, she claimed that President Trump was aware of

38
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 4: some of these contracting decisions and spending decisions, especially when

39
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 4: it came to marketing that featured her prominently. And by

40
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 4: hour two, Secretary Nome was out at DHS and that

41
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 4: was a huge, huge shockwave felt across the country.

42
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 6: Cabinet reshuffle of yeah, which much more stable.

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 5: Cabinet overall, much much more administration.

44
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 4: And I think Trump was loath to do it. He

45
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 4: placed her, he didn't fire her all the way from

46
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 4: DHS certainly, but he's put her in a new role,

47
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 4: which is fine, I guess. So the next thing we

48
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 4: need to talk about is who's going to be taking

49
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,839
Speaker 4: over for Christy Noman. That is Senator Mark Wayne Mullen,

50
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: who's been a frequent guest on this show. Now here's

51
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 4: we want to lay out the stakes for you so

52
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 4: that everybody understands properly that Dynamics. Senator Mark Wayne Mullen

53
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 4: is one of the most liked senator, especially on the

54
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 4: Republican side of the aisle within Washington. He is a

55
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 4: congenial guy, he's very affable, a lot of people like him, which.

56
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 5: It's good to be all of those things.

57
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 6: But we're well aware that those phrases do set off

58
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 6: alarm bells for a lot of people.

59
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, you don't want to hear You usually don't want.

60
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 6: To hear something described as one of the most popular

61
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 6: people in Washington.

62
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 4: Being popular in DC is not necessarily a compliment. But

63
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 4: I will say my glass is half full. I have

64
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 4: a great respect for the Senator. I think he's you know,

65
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 4: here's the thing. He's a former MMA guy, he's a

66
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 4: military guy, he's you know, he's I don't want to

67
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 4: say he's mainstream, but he's kind of mainstream, right. And again,

68
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 4: alarm bells, alarm bells, alarm bells, Cause say what you

69
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 4: will about Christino, the same type of woman that is

70
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 4: willing to shoot her dog is not going to be

71
00:03:54,440 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 4: as let's say, vulnerable to emotional appeals. She was going

72
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 4: to be ruthless when it came to deportations. Here is

73
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 4: the trade that you make when you are ruthless. You're

74
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 4: not gonna get cooperation from blue states. They're gonna dig

75
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 4: their heels in and they're gonna fight you with everything

76
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: they've got. And that's what we saw with Christy Nomes approach.

77
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 4: And you kind of see this play out in Minneapolis.

78
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 4: So we have this huge uproar, Rene good, Alex pretty

79
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 4: and people digging their heels in protests. Nobody wants to cooperate,

80
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 4: and then Homan comes in kind of settles things down.

81
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 4: A lot of it starts going under the radar. You

82
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 4: don't see the headlines as much, and things calm down,

83
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 4: and the jails and the prisons and the counties and

84
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 4: even Minneapolis start cooperating with Ice, giving over criminal illegals

85
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 4: with detention requests. That's a good thing.

86
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 6: Is a good thing if they cooperate, but we have

87
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 6: to be this is there's going to be a little

88
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 6: bit of a skirmish here, because with any change of

89
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 6: the person at the top, there's an opportunity. And there

90
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 6: are definitely going to be people who approach the president,

91
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 6: approach the president's aids and they say, you know, Christy Nomes,

92
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 6: she had a lot of these problems because she was

93
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:13,239
Speaker 6: so tough.

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 5: And midterms are coming up.

95
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 6: Some people think it time to head towards the middle

96
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 6: a little bit, and they'll try to sell the administration, Oh,

97
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 6: this is a time to pivot towards the middle on immigration,

98
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 6: maybe dial back the ice stuff, dial back deportations, dial

99
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 6: back enforcement stuff. And you know, this is your chance

100
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 6: to do it. There's a new guy, he's pretty popular

101
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 6: with Democrats, can be we can play nice with him.

102
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 6: There will be this siren call to soften up, and

103
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 6: I think the administration's got to resist.

104
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 4: This is the.

105
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 6: President's signature promise, and his signature success of his term

106
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 6: so far is the effort not just that he's secured

107
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 6: the border, but there's a bunch of other things he's

108
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 6: done they've cut the number of H one B visas

109
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 6: that are being granted. They've cut the number of foreign students.

110
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 6: The overall foreign population of the US is going down.

111
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 4: It's basically stalled visas.

112
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 6: From a lot of country dozens I think we don't

113
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 6: seventy countries have a visa pause right now. These are

114
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 6: all good things long term.

115
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 5: It's stopping that.

116
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 6: It's breaking that utter dependence on foreigners endlessly coming into

117
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 6: America that's hollowed us out in so many ways. And

118
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 6: they're going to pressure Trump to reverse course on this,

119
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 6: and this is their chance to do it. They're gonna

120
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 6: say new guy at DHS, new policies, midterm year, ease

121
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 6: up on things, and as we said yesterday, there's going

122
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 6: to be pushback on anything worth doing at ICE. You

123
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 6: don't want the stuff we had with Secretary Nome where

124
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 6: a two hundred million dollars ad buy should not be

125
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 6: your source of controversy, the fact that you're not getting

126
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 6: contract signed because they're just sitting on your desk. Don't

127
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 6: want any of that going on. But you do need

128
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 6: to be prepared to fight out what really matters. And

129
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 6: if Mark Wayne Mullen is able to get along with

130
00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 6: Democrats in a way that make sure we still haven't

131
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 6: ho going on. That's great, but they should not allow

132
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 6: themselves to get tricked into selling out what they promised

133
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,799
Speaker 6: before them before the election.

134
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 4: Well, and remember the context that we're in right now.

135
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 4: That's what I want all of you at home to

136
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 4: kind of think about. We have Iran right So I

137
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 4: was on with Chris Cuomo last night and Chris Cuomo

138
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 4: made this line. I didn't get a chance to respond

139
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 4: to it, and I textedhim about it after because I

140
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 4: was like, you know, that was that was not cool.

141
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 4: But he said that, you know, President Trump was this

142
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 4: America first, that he seeded the America first mantle. I

143
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 4: disagree with that. I know a lot of people that

144
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 4: are skeptical about what's happening in Iran think that he

145
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 4: has seated the America first mantle. I don't agree with

146
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 4: that at all. I actually think that Listen, I'm skeptical

147
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 4: of what we're doing in Iran, but once we press go,

148
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 4: we have our we have our president's back, we have

149
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 4: our troops back. And I do think that there is

150
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 4: an America first angle here, and I think you could

151
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 4: message on it. I think that you could make that case.

152
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 4: But DHS is central to the America First Promise, the

153
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 4: reason why President Trump was elect in the first place,

154
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 4: and this is the moment to seize that mantle and

155
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 4: to make sure that we drive it home. All right.

156
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 4: So this is not a time to listen to the

157
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 4: voices that would tell President Trump and this administration to

158
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 4: go soft, to get weak in the knees, to seed

159
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 4: ground to the radical left in the activist base. No,

160
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 4: but here's the middle ground. And this is why I

161
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 4: think Mark Wayne Mullen could be potentially incredibly successful at DHS.

162
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 4: DHS is really good. As our guest said yesterday, when

163
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 4: there's no drama, there's commas, meaning we want millions out.

164
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 4: The way you get no drama is you have a

165
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 4: guy like Mark Wayne Mullin who can reach across the aisle,

166
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 4: calm people's fears, put on an affable, congenial face to it,

167
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 4: stay out of the headlines, and just get the work done.

168
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 4: If we start getting prison transfers of criminals that have

169
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 4: already been taken off the streets by local police park departments,

170
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 4: and they get deported seamlessly easily with just a few agents,

171
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 4: not these raids all the time. That's gonna be really key.

172
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 4: And then the next key employment enforcement. Employment enforcement. I

173
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 4: want you to keep that at the top of your mind.

174
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 4: That's how you get big time numbers. So there's different

175
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 4: strategies we can employ here that will get massive results

176
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 4: without all the headlines, without all the drama. So send

177
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 4: us your emails. A lot of you in the audience

178
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 4: seem to be skeptical that he's tough enough, that he's

179
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 4: got the intestinal fortitude and the internal constitution to stand

180
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 4: up against the attacks, so he doesn't, to use the

181
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 4: parlance of our day cuckout. So send us your emails.

182
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 4: Freedom at Charliekirk dot com, Freedom at Charliekirk dot com.

183
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: I want to hear your thoughts. Are you worried that

184
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 4: Mark Waynemullin doesn't have what it takes to stand up

185
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 4: for mass deportations to get them done.

186
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 6: I'm just picturing in my head that phrase you just use,

187
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 6: and we'd have those discussions with Charlie where you know, what.

188
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 4: Is riz Yeah, what does that mean? What does that

189
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 4: term you just use me? It just means is he

190
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 4: gonna fold? Is he gonna get sockt squish?

191
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 5: Is he gonna get squished.

192
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 4: Is he gonna get squished?

193
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 6: We don't want supe not and we're gonna fight to

194
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 6: make listen.

195
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 4: I will, I will absolutely, I will. I will say this.

196
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,359
Speaker 4: I I will put an aerial salt on his text messages.

197
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 4: If he starts getting weak in the knees, I will

198
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 4: tell you that, And you guys hold me accountable as well.

199
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 4: Freedom at Charliekirk dot com. But I want to hear

200
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 4: your thoughts. What do you think is it is the

201
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 4: fact that he's friends with a bunch of Democrats. Is

202
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 4: that a bad thing? Or is that a good thing?

203
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 4: I think time will tell, but I'm sure you guys

204
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 4: have opinions. Freedom at Charliekirk dot com. I want to

205
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,959
Speaker 4: hear from you and pull those up as we as

206
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 4: we get them. Course, of course, I want to draw

207
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 4: attention really quick to this story. We were gonna get

208
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 4: to it yesterday, but things got away on us. But

209
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 4: the House voted on basically whether or not they're going

210
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 4: to release ethics complain about sexual misconduct against its own remembers.

211
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 6: It's very funny how this goes, Because, of course, Congress

212
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 6: has spent several months ripping itself apart over the files

213
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 6: of mister Epstein and really blasting that all out there, which,

214
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 6: as the President warned, a lot of people are going

215
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 6: to be have like baseless allegations about them published, not

216
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 6: just not just actual embarrassing stuff, but just stuff where people,

217
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 6: you know, insane people were making claims about this because

218
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 6: it was such a big story. You'd have cranks contact

219
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 6: in the FBI, and that stuff's gone out. But there

220
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 6: was a vote that I think Nancy Mace was demanding

221
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 6: in the House where there is an ethics committee at

222
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,439
Speaker 6: in the House and it investigates claims of sexual miscontuct

223
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 6: by members, and this leads to reports, this leads to

224
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 6: some cases settlements that are funded by taxpayers, payments are made,

225
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 6: and she proposed, Okay, let's let's release all of those files.

226
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 6: And the House voted rather overwhelmingly to not do this,

227
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 6: in three fifty seven to sixty five to not release. Yes,

228
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 6: there were thirty eight Republicans and twenty seven Democrats voted

229
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 6: in favor, so it wasn't even partisan in who the

230
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 6: minority was.

231
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 4: Of the Some of the Republicans that voted to release,

232
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 4: and we should say it would be Andy Biggs Bobert

233
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 4: from Colorado, birch It from Tennessee.

234
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 5: I believe Gil Brandon.

235
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 4: Gil yep Let's say Rocanna. That wouldn't surprise I think

236
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 4: many of you.

237
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 5: It's a lot of people we like.

238
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 6: And I will say, given all the stuff that it's

239
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 6: very It is the case. They voted I think four

240
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 6: hundred and sum to one to release the Epstein files

241
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 6: when they did, and it is a funny image to

242
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 6: have a lot of them now voting against that. Obviously,

243
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 6: I've made a lot of people irritated with my take

244
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 6: on the file.

245
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 4: Oh you guys are gonna love Blake's take.

246
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 7: Yeah.

247
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 6: And it's just like I would say, I'm getting more

248
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 6: and more, I'm shaped a lot. I used to cover education,

249
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 6: and I would so I would cover all those sexual

250
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 6: harassment tribunals they would have at colleges. And that really

251
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 6: solidified in me. I think we have a legal system

252
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 6: for a reason. If you sexually assault or rape, or

253
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 6: you know, do a crime to somebody, it should go

254
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 6: to a court of law, period. Like That's why we

255
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 6: have judges, that's why we have lawyers, that's why we

256
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 6: have juris.

257
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 4: Your whole take, though, is that this doesn't belong in

258
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 4: the House.

259
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna say this.

260
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 6: I don't think Congress should be investigating claims related to

261
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 6: like affairs of its members. If you are a victim

262
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 6: of harassed, if someone is extorting you or you know,

263
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 6: committing some sort of crime, you should report it to

264
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 6: the police, or you should sue them for it, and

265
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 6: it should be in a court of law. But what

266
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 6: we see in Congress is the same thing we see

267
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 6: in universities, which when you have these para you know,

268
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 6: these quasi courts, they're a way to shake people down.

269
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 6: They're a way to sort of harangue people. They're a

270
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 6: way to escalate personal drama intooers of state.

271
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,479
Speaker 4: But it's different because Congress actually has a fund established

272
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 4: to pay out these which they also shouldn't. But this

273
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 4: is why it caused some controversy. The drafted language allegedly

274
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 4: would have revealed victims, disproven claims, et cetera. It was

275
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 4: similar to the Epstein discharge. So why are they all

276
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 4: right with doing one over the other? Does that make

277
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 4: any sense?

278
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 6: Probably not, It's probably not consistent, And I would say

279
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 6: it would be satisfying Congress, just like with their stock trades.

280
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 6: Congress is often a very greasy body, and I think

281
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 6: there's a lot of ethical stuff to be desired. So

282
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 6: in a sense, Congress would ritually deserve having all of

283
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 6: this stuff aired out. But I think if we did that,

284
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 6: I would be okay, release all the files and then

285
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 6: also just move this into a normal court.

286
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 4: You're just against it on principle. Yeah, not that Congress

287
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 4: deserves to be shielded from yere Congress.

288
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 6: Shouldn't be shielded if any, but Congress shouldn't be shielded.

289
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 6: But I think the standard should be things should either

290
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 6: be in the open court of law, something that is,

291
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 6: you get sued over this, you get prosecuted over this,

292
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 6: or it should be a private matter.

293
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 5: We don't. It's weird to.

294
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 6: Have these extra judicial tribunals of this sort. And I

295
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 6: don't like them in college campuses. I don't like them

296
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 6: in companies. Companies do this now where oh, someone has,

297
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 6: you know, a relationship with an employee and then these

298
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 6: HR apparatus.

299
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 5: Is investigating this.

300
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 6: Just no, this didn't exist when America was a great

301
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 6: country seventy years ago. You had the courts and you

302
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 6: had private life. And wow, I want to mingle the two.

303
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 4: As much as you can understand some of the folks

304
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 4: in the audience who probably feel frustrated with that answer

305
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 4: simply because of the hypocrisy of it. All you've got

306
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 4: I mean, I will say, Roe Conna and Thomas Massey,

307
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 4: Nancy May, some of the loudest members on the Epstein stuff,

308
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 4: were all voted in favor of releasing it. But the

309
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 4: House did vote what was it you said, four hundred

310
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 4: and something to one to release the Epstein documents and

311
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 4: the transparency discharge. And guess what, a lot of those

312
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 4: people the principles only went so deep. And here's what

313
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 4: I will say. There's a new big dump from the

314
00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 4: Justice Department, almost fifty thousand documents total, nothing burger. We

315
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 4: explained it last week. It's literally all of the things

316
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 4: we explained last week. So maybe we'll explain it again.

317
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 4: We have to.

318
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 6: Howdy Blake here. You know, in moments like this, truth

319
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 6: really matters. The truth was important to Charlie. So we

320
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 6: want to share with you a new documentary that's caught

321
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 6: our attention, not because it's political, but because it refuses

322
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 6: to shy away from the questions that so many Americans

323
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 6: are still asking. It exposes the truth Thank You, Doctor

324
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 6: Fauci is a hard hitting investigative docu thriller from award

325
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 6: winning filmmaker Jenner First. He digs through thousands of documents,

326
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 6: sits down with scientists, intelligence insiders, and whistleblowers, and exposes

327
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 6: what may be one of the most significant public health

328
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 6: cover ups of our lifetimes. This film isn't about scoring

329
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 6: partisan political points. It's about transparency, accountability, and the courage

330
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 6: to follow the evidence wherever it leads. If you've ever

331
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 6: wondered what really happened behind closed doors, this is something

332
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 6: you need to say for yourself. Angel Studios was the

333
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 6: only platform willing to release it, and that's because you,

334
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,960

Speaker 4: host of Next Up on the Megan Kelly Network. Welcome

341
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 4: back to the show, Chart to the Charlie Kirk Show. Mark,

342
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 4: how are you.

343
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 3: Doing, gentlemen, I'm good.

344
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 8: In honor of Intra Maga conflict, I'm dressed like Steve

345
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 8: Bannon today with the.

346
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 4: Oh, is that where we're going? Is that where we're going?

347
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 4: All right? All right?

348
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 8: This is I tried to grow I tried to grow

349
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 8: my beard in, but I couldn't do it fast.

350
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 4: Well, Blake's froze.

351
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 5: Strong, sell hair to sprout all over.

352
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 4: These are fake, fake, fake allegations, all right, Mark, So

353
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 4: is this where you tell us that the Iranian war

354
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 4: or conflict, whatever calling it is causing intramaga fighting or what?

355
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 4: What is your political analysis? Well of where we're.

356
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 3: At, it is it is.

357
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,959
Speaker 8: And you could take a Tucker description of his opposition

358
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 8: and draft a bunch of it onto a Bernie Sanders

359
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 8: description and it would look a lot alike. This is

360
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 8: not a partisan issue as much as it is an

361
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 8: attitude about.

362
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 3: America's role in the world. So I'm for a robust debate.

363
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,199
Speaker 8: I think people shouldn't shy away from the reality that

364
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 8: there are people within both parties who disagree about whether

365
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 8: this is a good idea.

366
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 3: And I think it.

367
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 8: Should be less about personality and fighting and more about

368
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 8: get on the national town square and explain your position.

369
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 8: I think the president I talked about this on NextUp

370
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 8: last week. I don't think the why and the why

371
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 8: now are ambiguous, and it frustrates me that people want

372
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 8: to spend time debating the why and the why now.

373
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 8: I think there are lots of debates to have Congress's

374
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 8: role the endgame, regime change, how much it costs, the risks,

375
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,479
Speaker 8: But I don't think we need to debate why why now.

376
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 8: I think the President and Caroline Levity have made that

377
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 8: pretty clear.

378
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,199
Speaker 4: Yeah. I actually was on with Chris Cuomo on his

379
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 4: show last night and I said, Hey, originally I was

380
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 4: very much in the camp that this has not been

381
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 4: properly sold to the American people. I am no longer

382
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 4: in that camp. I understand the why and the why

383
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 4: now think I actually think they've done a pretty good

384
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 4: job of that. Now we have questions, of course, how

385
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 4: close were they really to enriching uranum to the point

386
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 4: of making a nuclear bomb. We've been told that for decades,

387
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 4: you know, But we had a nuclear scientist on the

388
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 4: show yesterday who said, basically, it's the same amount of

389
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 4: time going from zero to five percent enrichment as it

390
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 4: is sixty to ninety. I mean, it ramps up very quickly.

391
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 4: How fast you can get it there and so I mean, listen,

392
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 4: there's a lot of reasons I think that this can

393
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 4: make sense from a national security perspective, from a geopolitical perspective.

394
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 4: The truth though, is that Trump could be one hundred

395
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 4: percent right from a national security perspective and an American

396
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 4: first perspective, but it could be politically costly, and we

397
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 4: need to be honest about that. Mark. We had students

398
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 4: from some of our chapters on and they said, basically,

399
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 4: all the Trump voters on campus hate it too right,

400
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,719
Speaker 4: And this is something that Charlie was intimately aware of.

401
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 4: My perspective on it is once you press go, you

402
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,719
Speaker 4: gotta be a patriot. You got to root for our troops,

403
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 4: pray for their safety, and you got to pray that

404
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 4: America's interests are advanced somehow, the world's interest, Iranian's interests

405
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 4: are advanced somehow here. But politically, I think this gets

406
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 4: diceier the longer it goes right. So we're told four

407
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 4: to five weeks, now, we're told one hundred days maybe

408
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 4: through September. That seems to be the central question of

409
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 4: how do you get out as this thing drags on.

410
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 4: I think that's where the political fallout is going to

411
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 4: be felt most sharply, especially as we close into the midterms.

412
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 4: So what messaging is working, what's not working, what's piercing,

413
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 4: what's getting through? Line up the two sides. What do

414
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 4: you think is working when the Democrats are attacking it?

415
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 4: What do you think is working when the ADMIN supports it?

416
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 8: Well, first, I know you guys must do this all

417
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 8: the time, but I really do wonder would have happened

418
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 8: if the President had called Charlie last week and said, Hey,

419
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 8: I'm thinking of doing this. What he would have said,

420
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 8: and then what he would have said if the President

421
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 8: hadn't agreed with his advice but had done it anyway,

422
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 8: assuming that might have.

423
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 3: Been his advice.

424
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 8: I really do wonder, because, as we all know, he

425
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 8: was singular and thinking about these things from all dimensions,

426
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 8: and I don't think he would have been exactly where

427
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 8: Tucker is or exactly where the vice president is, But

428
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 8: I do wonder where he would have been on this look.

429
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 8: I think the politics overlap with the substance, but the

430
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 8: substance is most important and the politics will flow from that.

431
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 3: If this is successful, then.

432
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 8: I think it will help Republicans, although it may not

433
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 8: save their majorities in Congress in the midterms. The Democrats

434
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 8: really surprises me, even given how much they disliked the president,

435
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 8: how polarized things are, It surprises me how far out

436
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 8: there they are and just emphasizing the negatives about this

437
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 8: and not even sometimes even paying homage to the extraordinary

438
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 8: performance of the US military and the boldness of this.

439
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 8: We've had decades of all presidents saying Iran cannot have

440
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 8: a nuclear weapon, or is it intolerable that Ron is

441
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 8: developing ballistic intercontinental ballistic missiles. It's intolerable that Iran is

442
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 8: the leading sponsor of terrorism around the world. Other presidents

443
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 8: felt the same way about President Trump, not just that

444
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 8: it was a bad thing, but that it was an

445
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 8: intolerable thing. And yet Donald Trump's the one who's done

446
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 8: something about it. Now there are extraordinary risks, and you

447
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 8: put your finger on for most, for most Republicans who

448
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 8: are worried about the election, is the critical factor how

449
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 8: long will this last? And I believe that that the

450
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 8: president could stop now right, there's nothing. There's no factor

451
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 8: that keeps the president except for maybe fighting with Nan

452
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 8: Yahoo about it, from saying, hey, we we degraded on

453
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 8: the fronts we wanted to missile technology, naval capacity, nuclear development,

454
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 8: and terrorspond. We've degraded all those. We're done, We're going

455
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 8: to We're going to come back home and warn the

456
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 8: Iranians that if they continue in those fronts to try

457
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 8: to rebuild, we'll do it again. Or he can keep

458
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 8: going and further degrading all four and hope that there

459
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 8: becomes an opportunity for the Iranian people rise up.

460
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 3: So I think people who are.

461
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 8: Worried that this is a quagmire or too much money,

462
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 8: or an endless war, I think are underestimating the flexibility

463
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 8: the president has here to if he wants to, for

464
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 8: substantive and or political purposes, to just end it.

465
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 6: Well, I've heard that take, But do you think that

466
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 6: holds up now that Iran has taken this sort of

467
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 6: lash out approach where they are shooting missiles at Dubai,

468
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 6: they're shooting missiles at Kuwait, We've had things popping up

469
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 6: in Azerbaijan, Jordan, Cyprus, even that Actually the president is

470
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 6: sort of stuck as long as that's going on, because

471
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 6: he has so many of these relationships with Middle Eastern

472
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 6: countries and he can't abandon all of them at.

473
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 3: Once well, I hear what you're saying.

474
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 8: But if you believe the American military, and it's right

475
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 8: if you've got my profession to be skeptical of what

476
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:09,360
Speaker 8: the government says during war, especially during war when governments

477
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 8: historically don't always tell the truth, they can keep going

478
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 8: and continue to degrade those things. So could they stop

479
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 8: if Iran still had capacity to send missiles.

480
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 3: Or drones into other countries? Probably not.

481
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 8: But if you look at the data of how many

482
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 8: attacks they've engaged in the last twenty four hours versus

483
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 8: the first forty eight hours, it appears the Pentagon's telling

484
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 8: the truth that they've diminished their capacity. So can they

485
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 8: make it so run can never hit an American ally ever? Again, No,

486
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,959
Speaker 8: but they can degrade it pretty substantially, it appears. And

487
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 8: again that could be a natural stopping point. Even if

488
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 8: we know little about whoever's governing, run now will be

489
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 8: any better for the world and for the Iranian people

490
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 8: than what was there before the conflict began.

491
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Mark, you're very good at looking at things

492
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 4: dispassionately to call balls and strikes. You know, we're we're

493
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 4: hardened partisans over here, obviously, But you know, the the

494
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 4: question that has sort of emerged in this conflict is

495
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 4: how much of our immediate skepticism was rooted in muscle

496
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 4: memory scar tissue from Iraq, from Afghanistan. There is a

497
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 4: countervailing sense that President Trump is really the first president

498
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 4: that's really unleashed our military to just be completely lethal

499
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 4: and precise, not not we're not tying their their their

500
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 4: feet here in their hands. So I mean when you

501
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 4: talk about we could actually do this relatively quickly, I

502
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 4: mean when you look at this, you're looking at the data,

503
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,880
Speaker 4: you're looking at how precise and lethal there being They

504
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 4: really this really could be a new model, even in

505
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 4: a country as big as Iran. Or do you think

506
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 4: that that's cope? Do you think I'm full of hopium

507
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 4: here now?

508
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 8: I think I think it's it's full use of force,

509
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 8: but not but not boots on the ground, And no

510
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 8: one's talking about building schools and hospitals in Tehran. So

511
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 8: if you stay away from troops on the ground and

512
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 8: boots on the ground, and you stay away from nation building,

513
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 8: and you stay away from being responsible for the new government,

514
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 8: although the President yesterday suggested he was responsible for it,

515
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 8: or at least he'd like to be if you stay

516
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 8: away from responsibility in those three areas, this is a

517
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 8: new paradiamond. I find it amusing when people say there's

518
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 8: never been a regime change forced by airpower.

519
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 3: Well, there's two things I think wrong with that.

520
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,239
Speaker 8: One is regime change doesn't have to happen for this

521
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 8: to be a success. And number two, we've never had

522
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 8: airpower like we have now, particularly with drones, but also

523
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 8: the sophistication and lethality of America's airpower from sea, land,

524
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 8: and air. So I wouldn't be surprised if this is

525
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 8: actually what the President's brand on these things stand for.

526
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,360
Speaker 8: It well executed, which is overwhelming force mitigating the problems

527
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,919
Speaker 8: that have occurred in previous forever war. He's still against

528
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 8: and his constituents are against.

529
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta remember, like, the reason we were even

530
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 4: thinking in these terms, the reason Charlie became so clear

531
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,959
Speaker 4: eyed in these terms, is because President Trump's sort of

532
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 4: pioneered that, you know, Iraq was a dumb war, right,

533
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 4: I mean he said that from the debates day.

534
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 5: He was the first one to say it.

535
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 6: The Republicans wouldn't say that.

536
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 5: Yeah for a decade.

537
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, And so the factory even here is because of

538
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 4: Trump's leadership. I don't think it gets enough credit for that. Honestly,

539
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 4: even some of my skepticisms, I've been probably too slow

540
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 4: to give him credit for even you know where we're

541
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 4: at currently, all right, Mark, I don't want to say

542
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 4: we called our shot yesterday, but we kind of called

543
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 4: our shot. We spent a lot of hour one getting

544
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 4: absolutely lambasted by some of you in this audience for

545
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 4: our criticisms of Christy Nome. We didn't like the luxury jets,

546
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,200
Speaker 4: we didn't like the marketing buys with her prominently featured.

547
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 4: We didn't like her putting that on President Trump. I

548
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 4: knew a line had been crossed, and then sure enough,

549
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 4: by the end of our two March she was out.

550
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 4: And that was a huge, you know, tectonic shift in

551
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 4: the ADMIN that was felt across the country. Politically, I

552
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 4: think this is a huge win for President Trump. I

553
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 4: think deportations, the promises on immigration just too central to

554
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 4: his election and his prospects going forward. I think we

555
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 4: needed a change at the top.

556
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 8: What say you, Well, I was surprised when she was picked.

557
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 8: Originally it wasn't clear to me what her qualifications were

558
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 8: for this job, and she caused a lot of problems

559
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 8: for the administration. It's a really big agency, really big department,

560
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 8: really hard to run.

561
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 4: Yep.

562
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 8: And both she and Corey Lewindowski, her advisor, have a

563
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 8: lot of enemies in the administration. That's just objective. That's

564
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 8: not that's not gossip. It's not anti Maga or anti

565
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 8: Christinome and Corey Lewndewski. It's just an objective fact. They

566
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 8: had made enemies for most of the year, including among

567
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 8: some of the most important and impressive and powerful members

568
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,479
Speaker 8: of the Trump team. So their capacity to stay in

569
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 8: the positions as long as they did is quite an achievement.

570
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 3: And at the.

571
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 4: Same time, that's so harsh. I love it. It's really hard.

572
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 3: True. So you're true.

573
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 4: The surprising aspect for you is not that she was ousted.

574
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 4: It was the factually lasted as long as she did.

575
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, that's tell us.

576
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 8: But but but again, I go back to the politics

577
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 8: and needs in our talking about these things. I think

578
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 8: I say respectfully and and and in the real lives

579
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 8: of real people, the politics needs to follow from the substance.

580
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 8: She was involved in helping control the border. That's one

581
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 8: of the greatest achievements of this president. So she gets

582
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 8: credit for that. But but you can't go to Congress

583
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 8: under oath and say the president signed off on something

584
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 8: he didn't sign off on. That's that's a that's a

585
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 8: no brainer in terms of a fireable offense. At the

586
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 8: same time, she did about a dozen other things that

587
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 8: in a normal president and a normal cabinet member would

588
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 8: have would have put her on at least then I

589
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 8: so I think, I think, I just I just think,

590
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 8: as an American, we need this department to be run,

591
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 8: run really, really well and without this level of controversy.

592
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:13,719
Speaker 4: So I have sort of been hearing whispers. Mark, I'm

593
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 4: curious if you've heard the same whispers. Two things. I'll

594
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 4: let you react to them in whichever order you want.

595
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 4: Democrats were already planning impeachment proceedings using and leveraging some

596
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 4: of this this that when she said Trump was you know,

597
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 4: he had approved some of these contracts, these no big

598
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 4: contract things like that, when he hadn't. Secondly, I am

599
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 4: concerned moving forward about what, let's just say softness might

600
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 4: come out of the DHS. I like Senator Mark Wayne Mulland,

601
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 4: but I'm concerned that he's going to be offering up

602
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 4: negotiating pieces that might be let's say, unsavory for the

603
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 4: base that wants to see, you know, everybody deported, all

604
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 4: illegals deported, Take those in whichever order you want. But

605
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 4: he's going to try and get Blue States to cooperate,

606
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 4: just like we've seen in Minneapolis. And I'm just concerned

607
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 4: about the negotiation process.

608
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 8: There between between a secretary of Mullen and Democrats.

609
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 4: Yep.

610
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, First of all, I feel you know, it's usually

611
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 8: I treat stuff that said during the break as private,

612
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 8: but I do feel duty bound to tell the listeners

613
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 8: and the viewers that during the Blake break, Blake said

614
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 8: that he could kick Mark Wayne Mullen's ass.

615
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 4: It's a strong sell, it's just about just about I feel.

616
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 8: I feel I need to share that because there's a

617
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 8: kind of a bold claim.

618
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 4: Well, we know where to find that cowboy. I'm pretty

619
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 4: sure yeaheah exactly. There's that great clip of going around

620
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 4: viral of Mark Winn.

621
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 6: Well, what I saw yesterdaybout him was someone's joked that

622
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 6: his office gets mad if you call and ask for

623
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 6: Mark Kawayne Mullen, Mark Kwain.

624
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, I actually sent him. I sent him a meme.

625
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 4: He laughed at it anyways.

626
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, so everybody loves that guy.

627
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 8: Look I like the fact that he said yesterday he

628
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 8: hopes to get Democratic support, you know, in the confirmation process,

629
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 8: and he might Senators tend to you know, be more

630
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 8: inclined to vote for other senators. And he's you know,

631
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 8: widely considered one of the nicest members of the Congress.

632
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 3: So fresh start and.

633
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 8: A possibility to keep up the policies that are popular

634
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 8: and consistent with the President's agenda and his pledge as

635
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 8: a candidate, and to maybe win over some Democratic support,

636
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 8: which would be good for everybody. Be good politically for

637
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 8: the Republicans, I think, but it'd be good for the country.

638
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 8: The president and Tom Holmans doesn't appear to be going

639
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 8: so we have to see what that relationships like. But

640
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 8: the President has a pretty robust agenda a that deportation

641
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 8: that I think would win broad support, not maybe not

642
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 8: amongst the squad, but a lot of Democrats would support it.

643
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 8: He still has to deal and this will be part

644
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 8: of what a Secretary Mullen has to address. What about

645
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 8: cracking down on employers, what about deporting people who are

646
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 8: in the country legally, But haven't been convicted of other crimes.

647
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 3: That needs to be worked out.

648
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 8: Still, what exactly is the next three years look like

649
00:32:58,520 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 8: in terms of who gets deported?

650
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 3: But a fresh start is.

651
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 8: A good thing because you know, whether she would have

652
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 8: been impeached or not, I don't know. I think the

653
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 8: Democrats are gonna have to think long and hard about

654
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 8: how much they want to talk about impeachment now and

655
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 8: how much they want to address it if they do

656
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 8: win the majority.

657
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 3: But but but.

658
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 8: I don't pay much attention to it because if they

659
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 8: impeached everybody who they talked about impeachment, it's all they

660
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 8: would do. And I don't think they would want to

661
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 8: use their new found majority to just run a bunch

662
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 8: of impeachment probes.

663
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 4: So to dig one level deeper, let's just say daka,

664
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 4: let's say amnesty of some sort. Let's say more you know,

665
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 4: work visa, whatever, whatever the offering is on what I'm

666
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 4: trying to get at here, Mark, is I am an

667
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 4: all they all need to go? Guy? Right? You hear this?

668
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 3: Yeah?

669
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 4: This kind of bifurcation within the messaging that the worst

670
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 4: first want to get the criminals, and then there's the base,

671
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 4: which a lot of us are. A lot of them

672
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 4: are like me. They all need to go And what

673
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,959
Speaker 4: I'm trying to calibrate with you passionately, So take you're

674
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,239
Speaker 4: not in MAGA, You're you're kind of sitting outside of it.

675
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 4: What would you brace us for accepting if we're going

676
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 4: to get blue city sanctuary cities to cooperate and hand

677
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 4: over their criminals at jails, what do we need? What

678
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 4: is actually the most popular center cut of this.

679
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, well you're on the wrong side of public opinion

680
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 8: on that question, as I know, you know, and there's

681
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 8: a practical.

682
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 3: A practical reality.

683
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 8: And I used to ask people before MAGA back in

684
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 8: like twenty you know, twenty twelve, twenty sixteen, before the

685
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 8: president won the nomination, what do you want to do

686
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 8: with the fifteen million or so who you're here illegally?

687
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 8: And most politicians in the Republican Party wouldn't answer the

688
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 8: question because they know not just what a heavy lift

689
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 8: it is and how expensive it would be on the

690
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 8: front end. But a lot of those people are integral

691
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 8: to the economy, particularly in two sectors. The president has

692
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 8: a lot of friends who are owners of hospitality and

693
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 8: agricult So if you guys want to take the President

694
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 8: on on deporting people who work in agriculture and hospitality,

695
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 8: go at it.

696
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 3: But I don't think he.

697
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 8: Has any intention of doing that because every time it

698
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 8: comes up, some of his friends in hospitality and a

699
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 8: call him and say you'd put us out of business.

700
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 8: So they might have broken the law, they might be

701
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 8: a drain on America tax dollars in one way or another.

702
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 8: Some of them might commit crimes, but they're an integral

703
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 8: part of the economy and I'm not saying they shouldn't

704
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 8: be removed for the country. I'm just saying there are

705
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:29,439
Speaker 8: a lot of people in the Republican Party who don't

706
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 8: want them removed.

707
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 4: Well, I don't like that answer, but that's why I

708
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 4: asked it, because I want to know what you think.

709
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 4: Mark Halprin, thank you for making the time for us today.

735
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 4: in our one about and Mark wayn the other one.

736
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 5: And we got a lot. We got a lot very quickly.

737
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 6: A lot is a lot of people are angry about

738
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 6: what he said and did about January sixth, that he said.

739
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 6: The fact he called Ashley Babbitt's murderer a hero is

740
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 6: a problem for me. Another one said that she's I

741
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 6: believe he like embraced the hugged him.

742
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,720
Speaker 5: Yes, hugged him. So let's see.

743
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 6: But Mullen, over the years, Charlie would make mention about

744
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 6: his concerns with certain people. Uh, but he says he's

745
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 6: worried that Mark Wayne might say whatever he needs to

746
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 6: ingratiate himself. Because we know Charlie had Mark Wayne on

747
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 6: a lot. He said positive things about him. So I

748
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 6: think I think there's a lot of kind of maybe

749
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 6: Missouri attitude show me with Mullen that you can get

750
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 6: the job done. And on the other hand, Patty says,

751
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 6: we're ready for change and he's great regarding deportation. We

752
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 6: live in Oklahoma. He has done well for our state.

753
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 6: That's Stan and Patty XO XO.

754
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 4: Wildfire says, hallelujah, spot on Mark Halprin Bingo, please you

755
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 4: to stop patting yourselves on the back for her ouster.

756
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 4: Fair enough, We probably had very little to do with it,

757
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 4: although it was time to it was time to address it.

758
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 6: Another says I'm not a fan for in the past years.

759
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,240
Speaker 6: He verbally attacked Matt Gates long before Matt was proposed

760
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 6: as AG But I hope he proves me wrong.

761
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 5: And I trust President Trump implicitly.

762
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 6: It's from Mary, So, like I said, a lot of

763
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 6: prove it sort of attitude.

764
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 5: Which that's why we said they got it.

765
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,799
Speaker 6: The administration's got to make sure that they don't go

766
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,760
Speaker 6: for they don't fall for the siren call to soften

767
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:51,959
Speaker 6: up on immigration just because Gnome is out. You want

768
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 6: you still want the tough attitude. You just want less

769
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 6: of the less of the distractions.

770
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, fair enough, all right, So we are and are

771
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 4: ask us anything our and we have first up looks

772
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 4: like Ellie, Ellie, you are on the Charlie kirkshow welcome?

Speaker 7: Hey, can you guys hear me? Okay, yes, yes, hey,

Speaker 7: thanks for letting me call in. It's my first time.

776
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 5: Oh well hopefully not alone.

777
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 7: Yeah. So, unfortunately I've lost a few close family members

778
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 7: in this last year, and then of course with losing

779
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 7: Charlie as well, I know they believed in Jesus and

780
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 7: they're in heaven now. But with all of the grief,

781
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 7: my question to you guys is, I know all of

782
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 7: you have different opinions on faith, but what are some

783
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 7: ways that you have all strengthened your faith through dealing

784
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 7: with the grief.

785
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 4: I mean, our situation is so unique in the sense

786
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 4: that we found ourselves at the middle of this really

787
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 4: global news story. And I said it a bunch of times,

788
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 4: and I'll say it again because it bears repeating. I

789
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 4: was sustained by the prayers of strangers. I had a

790
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 4: ton of people praying for me and for us, and

791
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 4: for the organization for Erica that we knew, but a lot.

792
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 4: We just had so many people. I've got a mountain

793
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 4: of mail in the office here actually that Riley's just

794
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 4: looking through. And it's like the third wave that has

795
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 4: come to me because they hold it in the in

796
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 4: some of our shipment area until they can check it out,

797
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 4: and then it comes to me. And it's just this

798
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 4: mountain of people saying we're praying for you, and we

799
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 4: love you, and we have your back. And I will

800
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 4: tell you I could feel it. I genuinely could feel

801
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 4: the prayers of strangers, and all of a sudden, it

802
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 4: was kind of it was almost like a road to

803
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 4: Damascus moment for me, even when I after Charlie was

804
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 4: assassinated and I realized, you know, so many days we

805
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 4: were just hunkered down, working so hard, just trying to

806
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,399
Speaker 4: save the country, trying to get President Trump elected, whatever,

807
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:53,320
Speaker 4: build the show, and all of a sudden, Charlie was gone.

808
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,839
Speaker 4: And I realized, looking back, you know, and I said

809
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 4: this at the memorial, that I realized Charlie we called

810
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 4: them campus tour stops and proved me wrongs, but they

811
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 4: were really tent revivals, you know. And I saw that

812
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 4: Charlie wasn't just a political activist. He was a prophet

813
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 4: to the people. And those kind of realizations felt like

814
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 4: revelations from the Lord, and that strengthened my face fate

815
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 4: because I just felt like it wasn't a concept, it

816
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:25,799
Speaker 4: wasn't abstract. It was so deeply personal and you can

817
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,919
Speaker 4: just feel the Holy Spirit in that moment. I could

818
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:33,319
Speaker 4: feel the Holy Spirit in and around us, and in

819
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 4: and around what was happening, and in around the vigils

820
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 4: and everything we saw at the memorial. It was such

821
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 4: a tangible manifestation of the presence of God for me personally,

822
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 4: but for the country. And when you have those moments,

823
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 4: it's important to remember them because you know they're clarifying moments.

824
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 4: There are moments of vision. And if you look into scriptures,

825
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 4: the stories of the great people in the Bible, they

826
00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 4: had these moments of beautiful vision and then the vis

827
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 4: we get clouded and so and that's just what happens

828
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 4: in life. God gives you a revelation, and then the

829
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 4: revelation is challenged and the vision gets cloudy. And so

830
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 4: I hold that with that memorial in my heart deeply

831
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 4: and closely. And I hold those those moments of just

832
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 4: the tangible presence of God in and around us closely.

833
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 4: And I remember it because I truly believe what God

834
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 4: is unleashed, man cannot stop. And I believe God is

835
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 4: active in our midst. I believe God is doing a

836
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 4: great work. I believe that revival continues on. And so

837
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 4: I just I hold close to the promises of God.

838
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,399
Speaker 4: I hold close to what God has revealed to us,

839
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 4: and I hold close to the legacy that Charlie left us.

840
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 4: I think about it all the time. I don't know

841
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,799
Speaker 4: about you, Danny, But I find myself reflecting on those moments.

842
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 4: Danny spent a lot of time with Charlie in Privy.

843
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 9: Yeah. I think what I've been doing a lot is

844
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,839
Speaker 9: just like praying, reading the Bible, as Charlie would say,

845
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 9: is very important, and just staying grounded in your beliefs

846
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 9: and really just taking time just reading scripture instead of

847
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 9: just listening to everything online and everything like that. I

848
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,320
Speaker 9: think that's really helped, just sticking true to my beliefs

849
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 9: and God's word.

850
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is one of Charlie.

851
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 6: One of Charlie's better takes that he repeated on here

852
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 6: a lot is that faith is a is a practice,

853
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 6: and so I like that. You say, how do you

854
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,280
Speaker 6: cultivate it daily? Well, are you doing a faith related

855
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,720
Speaker 6: thing daily? Because that is how you will cultivate it daily.

856
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 5: I think some.

857
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 6: This is gonna be a weird comparison, but I remember

858
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 6: when I started lifting weights, a friend of mine pointed

859
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 6: out a lot of people would go online and they

860
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,280
Speaker 6: would obsess over like what's the right regimen of weights

861
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:35,760
Speaker 6: to do, and like.

862
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 5: What should I lift? What should my schedule be?

863
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 6: And they'd obsess over that and they would never start

864
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,479
Speaker 6: until they felt they were on the perfect thing. And

865
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 6: he would point out to me, the best exercise is

866
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 6: the one you do. Blake and do something. If you

867
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 6: want need to change it, you can just change it

868
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 6: as you go. And I think a similar thing can

869
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 6: happen with faith stuff sometimes where people wonder about doing

870
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 6: it the right way, when the correct take is like

871
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,320
Speaker 6: are you praying daily? Are are you reading scripture daily?

872
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 6: Are you going to church on Sunday? Are you doing faith?

873
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 6: Those basic things and the extra stuff will naturally come

874
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 6: out of.

875
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 4: That love, that involvement. I had a pastor that told me,

876
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 4: Ellie that you can't turn a part car. So the

877
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 4: first thing you do when you're cultivating your faith is

878
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 4: you just go and you can adjust the direction as

879
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 4: you go. I think to myself all the time doing

880
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,280
Speaker 4: the show, working with turning point is a massive blessing

881
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 4: because every day is an act of faith. Every day

882
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,360
Speaker 4: I have to test my faith, I have to have courage,

883
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 4: I have to step forward into something that feels uncomfortable.

884
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 4: And so the question for you at home is what

885
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,359
Speaker 4: are you doing that makes you uncomfortable? What is it

886
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 4: you're doing on a daily basis that makes you step

887
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 4: out of your comfort zone and step into faith. Faith

888
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 4: is spelled risk. What are you doing to take a

889
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 4: risk for the Lord? And I'm blessed and we're blessed

890
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,800
Speaker 4: around here because every day is a faith walk and

891
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 4: a faith journey. Ellie, did we get to your question?

892
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 4: Danny had a good follow up as well, well, but

893
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,280
Speaker 4: I want to make sure we answered your question.

894
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, No, that was amazing. I've been watching this show

895
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,759
Speaker 7: every day since Charlie died, so hearing your opinion on

896
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 7: it is means a lot to me.

897
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 4: Oh that's so great to hear. Yeah, I will tell

898
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:18,800
Speaker 4: you this whole thing has been a walk of faith.

899
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 4: I mean, I'll be honest with you. And you know

900
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 4: we're in the break here, so RAVI isn't necessarily catching it.

901
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 4: But I my first instinct was that the show was

902
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 4: never going to go on and that we were going

903
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 4: to just have to let everybody go and nobody was

904
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 4: gonna have a job. And Erica looked at me and

905
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 4: she said, they tried to silence my husband's voice, and

906
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 4: we can't let them do that. You have to keep

907
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,239
Speaker 4: the show going. I'll tell you right now, that was

908
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 4: a huge step of faith for me. And Blake. I'm sure, Danny,

909
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 4: everybody on the team, everybody in the studio, and we

910
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 4: walk it out every day. And it comes with criticisms,

911
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 4: it comes with people coming after us or people saying

912
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 4: we're not doing it right. But there's been so many

913
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 4: good things from it too, And God has been so

914
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 4: faithful in the midst of that, from our partners at

915
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 4: Real America's Voice, to our sponsors, to our crew and

916
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 4: our staff, and huge, huge step of faith. And you

917
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 4: had one more, Danny, it was really important.

918
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 2: Well.

919
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, just Charlie's book and taking the Shabbat too is

920
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 9: also very helpful, and just you know, getting off your

921
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 9: phone and just staying grounded, remove the distractions.

922
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 4: Make sure you rest in the Lord. Where do you live, Ellie?

923
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 7: I live around the Chicago Land area.

924
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:31,400
Speaker 9: I'm from Chicago.

925
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 4: Maybe she doesn't want to around the area. You don't

926
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 4: have to be specific.

927
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,319
Speaker 6: Okay, now, anyway, now, if you can give us your

928
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 6: street addressed right now.

929
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:43,760
Speaker 4: And what is your Social Security number? I'm kidding. That's great.

930
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 4: Chicago is a beautiful city. They did.

931
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 9: It's very secular.

932
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's some good churches there.

933
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,800
Speaker 9: They're all pretty gay. They're not great.

934
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:57,319
Speaker 4: All right, Well, Danny's Danny's gen Z is poking through

935
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 4: all right. So, actually have a friend at Hillsdale who

936
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 4: was just texting with hem. I mentioned he's listening in.

937
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 4: He said, I used to live in Aurora. If Ellie

938
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 4: needs church recommendations, I'm happy to help. So Ellie, if

939
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 4: you need church recommendations, email us Freedom at Charliekirk dot

940
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,240
Speaker 4: com and I'll connect you with my buddy over at Hillsdale.

941
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 4: Our next caller is Christine. Christine, welcome to the show.

942
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:20,760
Speaker 4: Please ummute yourself.

943
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:22,800
Speaker 10: Hey, guys, how are you doing today?

944
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 4: Really? Well, it's Friday, how are you?

945
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 10: Yeah? Right, I have a whole thing.

946
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 11: So many conservatives I know, went this strict enforcement on immigration,

947
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 11: but I feel like we should have some way to

948
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,800
Speaker 11: bring people in. For example, maybe we could if someone's

949
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 11: paid their taxes consistently and had no crimes for the

950
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 11: past five years, they could apply for citizenship and be

951
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,400
Speaker 11: forgiven for the illegal entry. Or like my father who

952
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 11: came over after World War Two, he had a sponsor

953
00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 11: who was financially responsible for him. He meant criterias like

954
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:07,759
Speaker 11: language proficiency, employment, and good conduct. So do you think

955
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 11: it has to be zero tolerance, or shouldn't we find

956
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 11: a way through to these people who are good of heart,

957
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 11: who just need to be here for other reasons, you know,

958
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 11: than crime.

959
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 6: Bluntly, So, first of all, in practice we may end

960
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 6: up with some sort of compromise like that, But my

961
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,879
Speaker 6: personal opinion is we should fight pretty hard for zero

962
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 6: tolerance because we've gone through this routine multiple times. And

963
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,719
Speaker 6: I'll be frank, I think a lot of good intentions

964
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,719
Speaker 6: like yours that you express have been taken advantage of.

965
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 6: So as an example, as you say, you know, be

966
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 6: responsible until they show language proficiency. Well, you're already supposed

967
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,319
Speaker 6: to have language proficiency in America, for example, to become

968
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 6: a citizen, to get things like those truck driving licenses,

969
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 6: and as we see, we just hand them out anyway,

970
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 6: it's not really enforced. Riend of mine who did become

971
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 6: a naturalized citizen, he was at the you know, he

972
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 6: went there and he was observing the checks they were doing,

973
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 6: and he says the test for English proficiency was on

974
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 6: the level of pointing at somebody's left hand and saying,

975
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,320
Speaker 6: raise your left hand. Well, okay, you're pointing out their hand,

976
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 6: and okay, they hold up their hand.

977
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 5: Because you're pointing out. They're like, oh ah, they're fluent.

978
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 6: They're we're gonna be a ready contributor to the American life.

979
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 6: And you know same thing, you commit no crimes. Well, okay,

980
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 6: well we have states already where because if you commit

981
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 6: a crime, result like a felony, is supposed to result

982
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:43,240
Speaker 6: in deportation, they deliberately lower the charges they bring against

983
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 6: illegal immigrants to keep them in jail for less time,

984
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,360
Speaker 6: or they take a felony and make it a misdemeanor

985
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 6: to make sure that a person is not deported. There's

986
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,960
Speaker 6: endless ways that this gets manipulated and used against us.

987
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:58,239
Speaker 6: And often they'll say, oh, this amnesty, it'll affect five

988
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 6: hundred thousand people, and it'll end up being far more

989
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 6: than that. Just in Spain, they said it'd be a

990
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 6: few hundred thousand, and it's going to be over a million.

991
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 6: When we did this with Reagan in the eighties, it

992
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 6: was supposed to be farm workers, it was going to

993
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:11,080
Speaker 6: be I think a few hundred.

994
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 4: Thousand again, or critically, we were going to get enforcement

995
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,360
Speaker 4: as part of the deal. We got amnesty, no enforcement,

996
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 4: and it ended.

997
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 6: Up being it ended up being millions of people instead

998
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 6: of hundreds of thousands. They're still having people trickle in

999
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 6: where anyone who says, oh, I did farm work in

1000
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,439
Speaker 6: the eighties, basically they're eligible for an amnesty. So how

1001
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 6: do you prove this? There's just so many ways the

1002
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 6: system gets manipulated. We've been taken advantage of. And Charlie's

1003
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 6: response to that, my response to that, A lot of

1004
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:43,040
Speaker 6: people's response to that is we're tired of getting messed with.

1005
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 5: We're tired of being lied to.

1006
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 6: People who broke into this country illegally have to have

1007
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,439
Speaker 6: accountability for what they did. They broke the law, they

1008
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:55,479
Speaker 6: broke into America. And I think if I think about

1009
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 6: your own home, if someone was just living in your

1010
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 6: home for a pro period illegally, would you want to

1011
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 6: just give them amnesty?

1012
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,240
Speaker 4: I think we should treat our nation. Lake's point is, listen,

1013
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 4: I love your heart, and there is such a like

1014
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 4: a place for that in this whole conversation. I think

1015
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 4: Mark Wayne is going to inject that, at least on

1016
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 4: the face. And but here's here's what I would say

1017
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,480
Speaker 4: to Blake's point, it's been abused, manipulated. You start making

1018
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:23,080
Speaker 4: exceptions for some, they're gonna make exceptions for all, and

1019
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 4: we've seen it happen time and time again, and I

1020
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,320
Speaker 4: think we're just we're just we don't have an appetite

1021
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 4: for it. All of them gotta go. But listen, I

1022
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,319
Speaker 4: think in practice we're probably gonna end up somewhere in

1023
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 4: the middle. But if we start with already, you know,

1024
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,319
Speaker 4: making exceptions, we're not gonna get much at all. So

1025
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 4: you gotta you just gotta kind of stay firm. And

1026
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 4: I hope that's okay for an answer for you, Christine,

1027
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 4: because I I it's okay answer.

1028
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's okay for an answer. It is.

1029
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,880
Speaker 11: It is a heart question for that, especially since my

1030
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,000
Speaker 11: father was an immigrant. Of course, he came in on

1031
00:51:58,880 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 11: his regular paperwork.

1032
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 10: We didn't sneak into the country.

1033
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 4: But I just country.

1034
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 10: I'm sorry.

1035
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 4: It was a different country back then. We actually mandated

1036
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 4: people assimilate. We had pride of our own culture, pride

1037
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:16,000
Speaker 4: of our own convictions and values. We made people fit

1038
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:19,319
Speaker 4: in here. And we've had such a I liken it

1039
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 4: to a meal. We've had such a giant meal, Christine.

1040
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,440
Speaker 4: We need time to digest, and we're not capable of

1041
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 4: doing that if you just keep pouring more and more

1042
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 4: fuel on that fire.

1043
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 10: I think that's a good metaphor.

1044
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:36,359
Speaker 11: I just even the zero tolerance, I don't think we're

1045
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 11: going to get there. I think one pro politics shift

1046
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 11: and all it. So, I mean, it's it's the same mess, though.

1047
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:44,920
Speaker 10: I think we need to have answers. I'll give you

1048
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:45,400
Speaker 10: an example.

1049
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 11: You were talking to Matt yesterday and you were talking

1050
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:54,280
Speaker 11: about checking off race or ethnicity on crime things.

1051
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 4: When ye.

1052
00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:02,160
Speaker 11: Right, So I looked that up and our paperwork mandated

1053
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 11: by the government only has white, Hispanic Asian.

1054
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 10: It doesn't have the rest. I mean that's literally They.

1055
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 11: Only changed it recently to add Middle Eastern and North

1056
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,759
Speaker 11: African and it's phasing in, but it'll take years and

1057
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 11: years and years for that to happen. Right, So that's

1058
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 11: just one little tiny administrative thing that we can't get

1059
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:26,920
Speaker 11: the needle to move on. I don't know how we're

1060
00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 11: going to get the needle to move on something as

1061
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 11: big and large as immigration.

1062
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 6: Well, we've been moving the needle pretty well with this administration.

1063
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 6: We've been getting a lot of people out, and I

1064
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,279
Speaker 6: think pushing hard that if you're here illegally, you'll go

1065
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 6: back is really the first step to any sort of

1066
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 6: amnesty has to be get the situation truly under control.

1067
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,760
Speaker 6: But knowing very much for your question, yeah, I know, amnesty.

1068
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,840
Speaker 6: The online world moves fast, and it's moving even faster

1069
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 6: these days. That's why TikTok approaches teen safety with families

1070
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 6: in mind from the start, because discovery and creativity are

1071
00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 6: both wonderful things, but it's important to make sure that

1072
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:04,839
Speaker 6: safety comes first as well. On TikTok, teenagers have over

1073
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 6: fifty built in protections right from.

1074
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:07,919
Speaker 5: When they join.

1075
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:11,239
Speaker 6: Accounts routines all start private by default, They're not open

1076
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,280
Speaker 6: to the entire world, and for those under sixteen, direct

1077
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 6: messages are turned off. Only their friends can comment on

1078
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,840
Speaker 6: their videos. And that kind of approach matters because feeling

1079
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 6: confident and comfortable about these platforms your teenagers are on

1080
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:26,879
Speaker 6: shouldn't mean digging through a bunch of menus and trying

1081
00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:29,520
Speaker 6: to set everything up yourself and worrying that you got

1082
00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 6: it wrong. TikTok is taking a proactive approach. Their protections

1083
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 6: are built in from the moment those teenagers join, so

1084
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,919
Speaker 6: that safety and peace of mind for parents is there

1085
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,880
Speaker 6: right from the start. All of this is to say

1086
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 6: when safety comes first, discovery and creativity can follow without fear.

1089
00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 4: All right, I just want to add one other thing

1090
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 4: to Chris. It's because I feel bad we were kind

1091
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 4: of we kind of dashed her hopes here because she's

1092
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,680
Speaker 4: more more sensitive maybe or whatever. I'm not saying we

1093
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 4: don't need a branding change, but underlying that branding change

1094
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,439
Speaker 4: can't be we can't be getting squish, all right. That's

1095
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 4: the that's the whole point. So I think Mark Wayne's

1096
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 4: going to be a very good mix of the congenial

1097
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:22,439
Speaker 4: but he's tough as nails too. That's my theory. All right.

1098
00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 4: Next up is John John You welcome to the Charlie

1099
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 4: Kirk Show. Your next step please unmute yourself.

1100
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 3: Welcome, Good afternoon.

1101
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:32,319
Speaker 4: How are you doing great? It's Friday? How are you, sir?

1102
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 12: Doing great? My wife and I are sitting here in Tulsa,

1103
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,719
Speaker 12: and I'll tell you we live half a mile from

1104
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 12: Senator Molin. So I've got a question and maybe a

1105
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,560
Speaker 12: couple comments if we have time. So I'm curious if

1106
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,520
Speaker 12: you have any thoughts on who Governor Stitt might appoint

1107
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:50,919
Speaker 12: to replace Senator Mollins.

1108
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 4: Well, some people are saying Governor Stitt might appoint Governor Stitt.

1109
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:55,000
Speaker 7: But I.

1110
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 4: Hope that that doesn't happen, actually, because I think it's

1111
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 4: a little it's it's not a good look. You know,

1112
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 4: they have a they need to appoint somebody because and

1113
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,360
Speaker 4: they don't need to do a special runoff election because

1114
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 4: it's technically already an election year for the twenty twenty

1115
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 4: seven terms, So that's seamless. There's a lot of candidates

1116
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,839
Speaker 4: that whose names are getting floated out there. You've got

1117
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:23,360
Speaker 4: Nick Hankins, Ron Meinhart, Tammy Sweeringen, Wayne Washington, Kevin Hearn.

1118
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's important to note that there's an Oklahoma

1119
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 9: statute that whoever he appoints cannot actually run. Really, yeah,

1120
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 9: they have If a US Senate se becomes vacant, the

1121
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:36,840
Speaker 9: governor appoints someone to temporarily fill it, the appointed person

1122
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 9: is not eligible to run in the special election.

1123
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 4: Wow, that's interesting, But that's in the special election would

1124
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:44,359
Speaker 4: have been about in a normal election.

1125
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,799
Speaker 9: I'm not sure, but they this is why My.

1126
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:50,960
Speaker 6: Guess is they would have to be able to run

1127
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 6: in the special This gets a little complicated, but states

1128
00:56:56,160 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 6: can't really control who runs for their office past federal

1129
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:03,000
Speaker 6: office past a certain point. That's why term limits are

1130
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 6: not allowed on federal offices because the Supreme Court says

1131
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 6: eligibility is governed by the Constitution, and there's just.

1132
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 5: The age and citizenship requirements.

1133
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:14,240
Speaker 6: So they might only be able to control special election

1134
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:15,920
Speaker 6: but not the general.

1135
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 4: Yeah. The Hill says that Biss and Hearne considering Senate

1136
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 4: runs to replace Mullin. So these are House Republicans from Oklahoma.

1137
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 4: You probably know this better, but I've met Stephanie Biss

1138
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:34,320
Speaker 4: before and then Kevin hearn so that they're considering it.

1139
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 4: So they both posted on social media that they're considering it.

1140
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 4: Let's see here.

1141
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 6: I asked Tyler if he had any thoughts, and he

1142
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 6: hasn't replied yet. I think he might still be fighting

1143
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 6: in the Spice Wars, as we discussed yesterday on thought Crime,

1144
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 6: so he's probably distracted.

1145
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:50,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, though, that person will not be able

1146
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 4: to run in the election.

1147
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 6: But the key thing is no more Lankforts.

1148
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1149
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, to make sure it's not a Lankfort.

1150
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 4: My vote is for idea alized as far apart from

1151
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:02,040
Speaker 4: Langford as we can get.

1152
00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 9: Yeah, so whoever he appoints will only be there for

1153
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:05,800
Speaker 9: what six months or so?

1154
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 4: Pretty short. Yeah, who do you want?

1155
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:13,320
Speaker 12: So we have a lieutenant governor here, Matt Panell, and

1156
00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:19,040
Speaker 12: he is a very conservative Christian, has four kids, went

1157
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,040
Speaker 12: to a Christian school here in Tulsa, and then actually

1158
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 12: graduated from my alma mater, which is Oral Roberts University,

1159
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 12: So very conservative Christian, has done a great job as

1160
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,120
Speaker 12: a lieutenant governor of Oklahoma, and I.

1161
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 4: Think he would be a great option.

1162
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:37,600
Speaker 12: But we do have that unusual law where whomever governors

1163
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 12: did a points cannot run for the next election, and

1164
00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 12: so I think potentially what Stick's going to do is

1165
00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 12: a point someone more as a placeholder, maybe the second

1166
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 12: best choice, and then have someone like Lieutenant Governor Penell run.

1167
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 12: But you know, buys her and I've heard all of

1168
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 12: the same ones. But I think the key thing is

1169
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 12: we do not want another Langford, we do not want

1170
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 12: another Rhino, and they need someone else in the mold

1171
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 12: of Mark Wing Mullen. By the way, someone said we

1172
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 12: need to move the needle on mass deportations. Mullen's will move.

1173
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:15,880
Speaker 4: The needle Yeah, why do you say that, I'm curious

1174
00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 4: somebody from Oklahoma.

1175
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, he is a fighter, and he he will be

1176
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 12: very diplomatic. He will try to make friends, but when

1177
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:26,919
Speaker 12: it comes down to it, he will do what needs

1178
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:29,320
Speaker 12: to be done and he will back up what he

1179
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 12: thinks needs to be done with words and deeds and actions.

1180
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,280
Speaker 4: Well that's coming from an Oklahoma voter there that lives

1181
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 4: just down the street from Center Mark waing mull.

1182
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 5: So let's hope for the best.

1183
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 4: Let's let's hope that that is absolutely the case. And

1184
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,160
Speaker 4: I tend to agree with you. I think he's got

1185
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 4: a I think he knows not to cross the base

1186
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 4: in this way. But yeah, I think he's gonna try

1187
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 4: and work across the aisle and be diplomatic, but when

1188
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 4: it comes down to it, I think he's gonna be

1189
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 4: stiff as nails.

1190
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:58,280
Speaker 6: Alrighty Ian, I think our next guy is Ian. Unmute

1191
00:59:58,280 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 6: yourself and what's your question?

1192
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Hi, guys, can you hear me?

1193
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:02,920
Speaker 4: Yes? We can?

1194
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 1: Awesome, Lord, bless y'all. I've been praying for you guys

1195
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:09,960
Speaker 1: every day. Thank you absolutely, But yeah, I just wanted

1196
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 1: to I had two questions, but my main one is

1197
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:16,440
Speaker 1: how can these people be you know, like saying they

1198
01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:20,200
Speaker 1: stand with the Ayatola when they with their rainbow flags

1199
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,880
Speaker 1: behind them, when they're talking like those people like the

1200
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 1: Ayatola and the Islamic regime would literally kill them if

1201
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,600
Speaker 1: they even set foot in the country. So I just

1202
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: I find it mindful. I thought it was Ai at first,

1203
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: but it's people are actually, you know, buying Iranian flags

1204
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,600
Speaker 1: and trying to say they stood with the Ayatola and

1205
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 1: that Trump was a bad person for it. Is it

1206
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 1: just Trump derangements in them? Or did they just hate

1207
01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:45,640
Speaker 1: Trump more than they hate you know, like Burder, I'm

1208
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,040
Speaker 1: not sure at I'm just.

1209
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 6: A little deeper than that. I there's there's this deep thing

1210
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 6: to it. I talk about it with some friends. We

1211
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 6: call it kind of the Calibanism, which is an obscure

1212
01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:00,280
Speaker 6: reference to make, but it's a there's a care and

1213
01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:03,520
Speaker 6: Shakespeare's the Tempest Coli band. He's like a savage and

1214
01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 6: he's trying to rebel against his master, and he's this

1215
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 6: cartoon figure and he's become this symbol for Third world academics,

1216
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:12,720
Speaker 6: the kind of people who push literal critical race theory,

1217
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:16,520
Speaker 6: postcolonial theory, and what I really think it is is

1218
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 6: there's a type of person who pathologically, they genuinely they

1219
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 6: hate the West. They hate its success, they hate its traditions,

1220
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,400
Speaker 6: they hate everything about it, and as a result, they'll

1221
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 6: just end up bonding to everything that is against it,

1222
01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 6: no matter how incoherent that is. And so sometimes that

1223
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:41,880
Speaker 6: means embracing all of the most radical LGBT stuff, because

1224
01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:45,280
Speaker 6: they're of course against Christianity that's part of the West.

1225
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 6: They're against traditional Western morality as was understood for a

1226
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,080
Speaker 6: long time, and so they want to tear all of

1227
01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 6: that down from the left. But then, oh, well, we

1228
01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 6: also have this Islamic republic that hates the West, and

1229
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:00,480
Speaker 6: it wants to flow up Israel and it wants to

1230
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 6: flood Europe in islamify it.

1231
01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 5: And so we're going to side with that too.

1232
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 6: Because it's also against the West. It is a true

1233
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 6: pan ideological coalition of resentment of hate of them. It's

1234
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,800
Speaker 6: not quite nihilistic, some of these quite strong beliefs, but

1235
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:19,600
Speaker 6: it's that what really does lie at the heart of

1236
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 6: so much of what drives them is resentment of what

1237
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 6: is beautiful.

1238
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:25,080
Speaker 5: It's like this love of ugliness.

1239
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 4: Well, I agree with Blake that there is sort of

1240
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:31,280
Speaker 4: an intersectionality to it, all, right, where they the oppressed

1241
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:35,680
Speaker 4: peoples of the world link arms even though they're underlying ideologies,

1242
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 4: you know, conflict with one another. I'm trying to pull

1243
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:41,680
Speaker 4: this clip. I meant to do it earlier, but I

1244
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:43,919
Speaker 4: found it when Blake was talking, so maybe the team

1245
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:46,200
Speaker 4: can bring it up. But there is you know, the

1246
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 4: Islamic regime paid a forty seven year old Pakistani national

1247
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 4: to assassinate President Trump. And apparently this I think they

1248
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,720
Speaker 4: arrested in like the day before. Butler, it was really

1249
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 4: really close. The FBI has him under a surveillance video,

1250
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 4: so he was actually working with somebody it turned out

1251
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:06,840
Speaker 4: to be an FBI and format they arrested him and

1252
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:10,960
Speaker 4: now he's singing like a sparrow here. And this was

1253
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:15,240
Speaker 4: all in retaliation for President Trump taking out Solomony. But

1254
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:19,560
Speaker 4: what was interesting about it is his instructions were very simple.

1255
01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 4: Take him out of a political rally and then start

1256
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:27,520
Speaker 4: a protest. Hear me again, try And I loged this

1257
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 4: as soon as it happened because it made me think

1258
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,520
Speaker 4: of October seventh. It made me think about what happened

1259
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,280
Speaker 4: to Charlie. And instantly there was a contingent online that

1260
01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:38,920
Speaker 4: started getting loud and sort of protesting, celebrating. You see

1261
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:42,160
Speaker 4: this with Iran. You see this with the next thing.

1262
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 4: And what they learned after October seventh is that you

1263
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 4: could be the aggressor. You could be the people that

1264
01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 4: launch a terrorist attack and killed twelve hundred people and

1265
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:56,439
Speaker 4: then launch a protest, and that the two go hand

1266
01:03:56,440 --> 01:04:00,480
Speaker 4: in hand. Do you see how sinister that is? That

1267
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:03,200
Speaker 4: you could be in the wrong, you could be evil,

1268
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:06,400
Speaker 4: you could commit evil, and then still launch a protest

1269
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 4: in support of that evil, and there will be a

1270
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 4: contingent that thinks that that's good. They'll get behind it.

1271
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 4: And you saw that again. I think the most stark

1272
01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 4: example of that is October seventh. It's a new model

1273
01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:24,600
Speaker 4: and they basically can be the villains and yet gain

1274
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 4: sympathy through that model. And so I think it's really sinister.

1275
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 4: It's something we need to be aware of. But we

1276
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:31,400
Speaker 4: also need to be aware that there's paid protesters, and

1277
01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,400
Speaker 4: we know that the next new thing, right, the same

1278
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:36,640
Speaker 4: people that are protesting BLM are going to be protesting

1279
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 4: for the Palestinians are going to be protesting for Iran. Meanwhile,

1280
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:45,200
Speaker 4: you've got Iranian diaspora all over the world saying thank

1281
01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 4: you President Trump, we support you, President Trump, we love

1282
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:50,720
Speaker 4: this President Trump. So you know, it's just these are

1283
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:54,360
Speaker 4: sinister forces that want to destabilize Western democracies. They want

1284
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 4: to destabilize America, and it's sick. I don't know if

1285
01:04:58,760 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 4: I rambled on there.

1286
01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:03,160
Speaker 9: But Danny, how the Trump look bad?

1287
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 5: Make sure?

1288
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:08,000
Speaker 1: Go ahead? How do how do we even work with

1289
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:09,200
Speaker 1: these people in our own country?

1290
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 7: Then?

1291
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:09,480
Speaker 10: Like?

1292
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 1: How how? How do how do we move forward? It's

1293
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: just like this this brick wall that seems to be building,

1294
01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:16,000
Speaker 1: you know that. That's like I want.

1295
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:20,920
Speaker 4: Child, but deport, don't give any more visas. Lots of

1296
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 4: different things like that. Hi, folks, Andrew Colvett here, I'd

1297

01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 4: Hey David, good good to hear from you.

1318
01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:32,120
Speaker 3: Good you you.

1319
01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 10: Uh.

1320
01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 13: My question is, uh, we're in we're in California. We're

1321
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:41,000
Speaker 13: in California, and uh, you know here you hear a

1322
01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 13: lot about this legislature, the legislature, so I want to

1323
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:45,880
Speaker 13: know uh.

1324
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:47,680
Speaker 7: Uh. I.

1325
01:06:47,880 --> 01:06:51,480
Speaker 13: I try to call these people because especially those that

1326
01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:53,640
Speaker 13: are not in my district, because I want them to

1327
01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 13: hear from me. Am I wasting my time calling them

1328
01:06:57,360 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 13: because it doesn't seem it seemed like they're one rogue

1329
01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 13: that they do what they want to, but they always

1330
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:06,960
Speaker 13: hide behind the label of the legislature.

1331
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 4: Well, are you calling conservatives, you call it republicans, you're

1332
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:10,800
Speaker 4: calling democrats.

1333
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,880
Speaker 13: I call multi democrats. Most of them are Democrats that

1334
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 13: are all in lockstep.

1335
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:19,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I mean, I hate to say, I

1336
01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 4: don't think you're wasting your time. It's good that they

1337
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,560
Speaker 4: know that they have people in and around, you know,

1338
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:28,680
Speaker 4: their their district that disagree with them, but they're still

1339
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,480
Speaker 4: gonna do one thing. They're gonna look and they're gonna say, hmmm,

1340
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:35,000
Speaker 4: I live in a D plus twenty district. Go pound

1341
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,760
Speaker 4: sand there because they know that they're just gonna get

1342
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:41,320
Speaker 4: re elected. And that's a sad truth of California being

1343
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:44,760
Speaker 4: a very radical state in many ways, with many radical,

1344
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,360
Speaker 4: far left districts, and they're just gonna do the simple

1345
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 4: math and disregard you. I hate to be that blump,

1346
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 4: but that's oftentimes as deep as they're thinking.

1347
01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 6: It's never bad to make your voice heard, but in general,

1348
01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 6: with contacting your representatives, it is sort of a proximity thing,

1349
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:01,640
Speaker 6: which is you'll have the most impact if they are

1350
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:05,560
Speaker 6: your representative, and then if you're in their state, they'll

1351
01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,200
Speaker 6: maybe kind of hear it because you know they have

1352
01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:09,880
Speaker 6: aspirations to run for Senate or something, and then if

1353
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:13,240
Speaker 6: you're from across the country, it's just gonna matter less.

1354
01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:15,960
Speaker 6: But sometimes you just call in and you'll still shape

1355
01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:19,639
Speaker 6: the sentiment, maybe on a controversial issue, and their staff

1356
01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:21,360
Speaker 6: are going to tell their members, oh, yeah, we've been

1357
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:24,439
Speaker 6: getting tons of calls on this issue and they think XYZ.

1358
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:29,240
Speaker 6: But there's other ways to get involved if you're concerned

1359
01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 6: about political stuff. There's show up at town halls. They

1360
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,880
Speaker 6: show up at your local city council events, show up

1361
01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 6: where you can make your voice heard in other ways.

1362
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:44,719
Speaker 6: And I love that we're not the early Republic anymore.

1363
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,920
Speaker 6: It is sadly harder always to really have a direct

1364
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 6: impact on politics.

1365
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,760
Speaker 4: But honestly, this is a great idea that Blake has.

1366
01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 4: Show up at city council meetings, you get it. You

1367
01:08:55,800 --> 01:09:00,160
Speaker 4: can apply to get to address the city council, make

1368
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,200
Speaker 4: your voice heard that way, Those get clipped a lot.

1369
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:03,760
Speaker 4: Those end up going viral if you make some really

1370
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:07,799
Speaker 4: good points, and that's a great way to generate popular

1371
01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:10,160
Speaker 4: support locally. You can also go to the town halls,

1372
01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:13,160
Speaker 4: ask questions, push back those those clips, so use the

1373
01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 4: power of the internet, use the power of video, also

1374
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:19,000
Speaker 4: turning point action. You know, if you want to get involved,

1375
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:21,640
Speaker 4: one of the best ways to get involved is at

1376
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:26,160
Speaker 4: your local precinct level. And also there's ways to contact

1377
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:30,759
Speaker 4: your representatives online. You can get out mass mail, mass

1378
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:35,080
Speaker 4: email campaigns, you can get mass call campaigns. So there's

1379
01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 4: different ways to do this. But then you know, become

1380
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 4: a ballot chaser, volunteer, work with your local GOP to

1381
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:44,120
Speaker 4: help drive out low propensity Republican votes. Those are those

1382
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 4: are all really important ways to get involved. I would

1383
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,719
Speaker 4: say that might that might be just genuinely a better

1384
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,400
Speaker 4: return on investment. Who you got next?

1385
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:55,559
Speaker 6: I think we have we have at least one more here.

1386
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:56,639
Speaker 5: Sorry, I don't have the right mix.

1387
01:09:57,600 --> 01:09:58,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's yes, sir.

1388
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:02,559
Speaker 8: Hey Mick, I want to say, God bless that collar

1389
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:05,960
Speaker 8: earlier in the show, who has a heart? I don't

1390
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 8: have it.

1391
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:08,439
Speaker 3: I'm gen z, I'm faded.

1392
01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:13,280
Speaker 2: I've seen my town turn and I want things to change,

1393
01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,720
Speaker 2: and so I'm glad that we have no them on

1394
01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:16,200
Speaker 2: our way.

1395
01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:19,439
Speaker 1: Out and Senator Mollan on his way in. And I

1396
01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:21,240
Speaker 1: have some high expectations.

1397
01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,679
Speaker 6: I want to see numbers go up in an ideal world,

1398
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:26,360
Speaker 6: I'd like to see a million.

1399
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:31,360
Speaker 3: Interior removals a year. Do you think that's possible?

1400
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:35,400
Speaker 4: And what other expectations should we excuse me, should we

1401
01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:38,760
Speaker 4: set for Senator Mollon as he goes into the cabinet.

1402
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:42,000
Speaker 6: Well, so I'd love to see a million a year, yeah,

1403
01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:44,840
Speaker 6: so or more Charlie's things project ten million, right.

1404
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:47,160
Speaker 4: So, just so you know that right now, DHS is

1405
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 4: operating with a three thousand arrest quota a day. Three thousand,

1406
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:56,679
Speaker 4: so that would take you to one million, basically one million,

1407
01:10:56,720 --> 01:11:00,439
Speaker 4: one hundred thousand if you would. So, so that's that's

1408
01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:05,599
Speaker 4: a benchmark that they're shooting for. Now. There's an argument

1409
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:07,320
Speaker 4: to be made that you should get rid of the

1410
01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 4: quota because you actually might get more. The argument is

1411
01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:14,639
Speaker 4: that the quota system basically mandates that these guys are

1412
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:17,560
Speaker 4: having to go out into the community and raid local businesses,

1413
01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:20,880
Speaker 4: raid whatever and people that tends to be where a

1414
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:24,719
Speaker 4: lot of the drama is happening. And there's another theory

1415
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:27,400
Speaker 4: of the case that you could do it more discreetly.

1416
01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:31,080
Speaker 4: And again this expression, maybe it's just an expression, but

1417
01:11:31,600 --> 01:11:37,320
Speaker 4: commas meaning millions, not drama. Comma not drama. So you know,

1418
01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,120
Speaker 4: the theory is that you could go in work with

1419
01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:43,080
Speaker 4: local municipalities if you sort of take that quota system

1420
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,639
Speaker 4: off the table and end up with a bigger number

1421
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:47,719
Speaker 4: at the end of the year. I think it's all

1422
01:11:48,479 --> 01:11:51,880
Speaker 4: TBD right. What I can tell you is that here's

1423
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:55,400
Speaker 4: why I feel bullish on this whole thing. Stephen Miller

1424
01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:59,719
Speaker 4: is still operating at the White House. He's still lurking

1425
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 4: in the shadows, haunting all the Democrats' dreams. And I'm

1426
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 4: telling you it's wonderful because he's gonna be working directly

1427
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,960
Speaker 4: with Senator Mark Wayne Wwollan. He is the architect of

1428
01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:14,599
Speaker 4: this interior enforcement in many ways, and he has through

1429
01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:17,600
Speaker 4: the one big beautiful Bill, this funding has created a

1430
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:20,400
Speaker 4: whole system. You gotta understand. But when Obama was getting

1431
01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 4: all these numbers, it was just hand off at the

1432
01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:25,760
Speaker 4: local jail. We have never equipped ICE agents to go

1433
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:27,639
Speaker 4: out in the field like we have equipped them now

1434
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:30,200
Speaker 4: to do this interior enforcement. We've never had this large

1435
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:34,040
Speaker 4: of a wave of illegals come in before, and so

1436
01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:36,040
Speaker 4: so yes, there's going to be a change in leadership,

1437
01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:38,400
Speaker 4: and there's gonna be probably a change in tone, change

1438
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 4: in collegiality and all of these things which could be

1439
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:46,080
Speaker 4: really helpful. We saw this with Homan Tom Homan in Minneapolis.

1440
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:50,639
Speaker 4: But ultimately, you have to maintain a posture that everybody

1441
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:53,000
Speaker 4: who's here illegally is on the table to be deported,

1442
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:57,880
Speaker 4: and that we are going to be working with Stephen Miller,

1443
01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:00,680
Speaker 4: the architect of the Interior Enforcement, to get over a

1444
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 4: million a year plus, you're gonna get self deportations. That's

1445
01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:05,479
Speaker 4: another thing, you know. One of the things that I

1446
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 4: found extraordinarily frustrating was that they were advertising on Fox News.

1447
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,839
Speaker 4: You gotta do Spanish ads, that's the thing Spanish speakers.

1448
01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:13,320
Speaker 6: I mean, that's what she got in trouble for. It

1449
01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 6: was a market she was advertising herself and ever kind

1450
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:18,360
Speaker 6: of in truth, I think she was trying to make

1451
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:20,400
Speaker 6: herself look good to the president, because she knows the

1452
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:24,320
Speaker 6: president watches Fox News. And I mean I heard it

1453
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,719
Speaker 6: on the radio here and I was on some country station,

1454
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 6: probably listened to by a Republican voter.

1455
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:30,519
Speaker 4: Same idea.

1456
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,920
Speaker 6: It's almost it's marketing to the base, and so it's

1457
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 6: politically oriented rather than deportations oriented. Yeah, and if Mark

1458
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:41,720
Speaker 6: Wayne Mullen comes in and says I'm not going to

1459
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:45,559
Speaker 6: be making myself famous. I'm except as the bane of

1460
01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:48,719
Speaker 6: the left's existence. I'll be very happy with that outcome.

1461
01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:50,680
Speaker 6: As you say, commas not drama.

1462
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:53,439
Speaker 4: And I would just I'm just gonna put this out

1463
01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:56,080
Speaker 4: there because i want people to be bracing for this.

1464
01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:59,120
Speaker 4: They could do something like DACA on the table in

1465
01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:02,479
Speaker 4: exchange for Blue Cities to play ball, and we have

1466
01:14:02,520 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 4: tolve for that because that that's gonna be the new

1467
01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:09,800
Speaker 4: battle line. And if you get Blue Cities, though Los Angeles,

1468
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:12,599
Speaker 4: New York, all of these cities to sort of come

1469
01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 4: to heal, then you know you could get more. And

1470
01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:17,920
Speaker 4: I just it's it's gonna be the next debate. I'm

1471
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:20,720
Speaker 4: telling you, I'm mourning you. So put that on your

1472
01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 4: put that on your crystal ball, if you will.
