So that's that is the plan this week. 37 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 3: But you know, we have to tell the tale that 38 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 3: was four action pack days of America Fest, Blake. I mean, 39 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 3: that was you know, every side of the political debate 40 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 3: seemed to get in on what happened at Amfest. 41 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: Everybody had an opinion. 42 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: I'm all here for it, and you know, more than 43 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 3: any other Amfest in the history of turning point, this 44 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 3: was we had the eyes of the world, the nation 45 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 3: certainly on this event. And so you're gonna get a 46 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: lot of opinions either way. But one thing is very clear. 47 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 3: Anybody that was there absolutely had the time of their 48 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 3: lives and realized just how much unity there is in 49 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 3: the movement, in the love of the people. I think 50 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: it was truly transformative. If you were in the space 51 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 3: in the event, and if you were just on Twitter 52 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 3: taking potshots, I guess there's. 53 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: No pleasing you. 54 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 3: But I mean, honestly, what an event, What an absolutely historic, 55 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: enormous achievement for the team, And I'm really proud of 56 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 3: everybody that was involved. It was such a triumph in 57 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 3: so many ways. Blake, you were obviously there, you were 58 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: taking part in a lot of the activities and interviews 59 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: and shows. 60 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: What was your take. 61 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, It's very funny because we were doing so many 62 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 5: interviews for the exclusive segments that I kind of had 63 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 5: a bit of tunnel vision. I didn't see that many 64 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 5: of the speeches on stage. So I'm actually looking forward 65 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 5: to catching some of the clips that we have here, 66 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 5: because we did, you know, as I'm sure a lot 67 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 5: of you listening right now. 68 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 4: No, we had our CK Exclusives room. 69 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 5: We talked to Megan Kelly, we had Michael Knowles, we 70 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 5: had Tom Homan, we had the sons of that Korean 71 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 5: pastor Song who was arrested in Korea who we had 72 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 5: on the show at Amfest last week, and so we 73 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 5: saw all of that, but what we were seeing on 74 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 5: stage at the same time was I think what was 75 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 5: the most interesting about this. 76 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 4: Amfest is We've had it as a big event. 77 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 5: We've had it as an event to get people fired up, 78 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 5: We've had it as an event for people to celebrate 79 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 5: after the twenty twenty four win. But I think this 80 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 5: was probably the most significant America Fest in terms of 81 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 5: it really being a space where different members of the coalition, 82 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 5: different members of MAGA go to state their position on 83 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 5: what the movement should be, how they should approach sub 84 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 5: significant issues. I think it stands out we built on 85 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 5: the debate that we had last summer, and we had 86 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 5: several debates on different issues, and I think that's a 87 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 5: very promising theme that we'll be having going forward because 88 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 5: we can do we can do debates about Israel, we 89 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 5: can do debates about weed, we can do maybe. 90 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 4: We'll have a debate about the property tax and everyone 91 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 4: can yell at me again. 92 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 5: I think that's what stood out about this America Fest, 93 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 5: that there was there was a certain combativeness over issues, 94 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 5: but as you said, people on the ground. 95 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 4: It was a very positive vibe, a very good attitude. 96 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 5: There was a lot of unity coming from everyone remembering 97 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 5: Charlie and what he meant for the movement. And I 98 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 5: think most people there, the vast majority of people there, 99 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 5: were extremely upbeat and. 100 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 4: They were remembering the things that we're all fighting for. 101 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then you know, like I said, it was 102 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: like an It was like a play in four acts 103 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 3: or something. You know, it was like night one, it 104 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: was you know, Ben Shapiro came on the stage, kind 105 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 3: of name checked a lot of people, kind of took 106 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 3: as I said, it kind of took like a howitzer 107 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 3: to a lot of the online right and had you know, 108 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 3: it was like the Festivus for the rest of us. 109 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: It was an episode of Seinfeld airdis grievances, got it 110 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: out of his system. And then you had a couple 111 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: of those people, Tucker on the first night that kind 112 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 3: of fired back, but you know, I think Tucker was 113 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 3: a little bit more restrained. And then you had Steve Bannon, 114 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: obviously Megan Kelly, so you had a bunch of that 115 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 3: kind of chatter. 116 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: But by the I think it was Saturday night, you 117 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 2: had Jesse. 118 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 3: Waters come on and basically just tell funny stories about 119 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 3: Trump and kind of talked about how Charlie inspired him. 120 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: And ended ended the Saturday night and then we had 121 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: Faith Night, and so we had, you know, a proclamation 122 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:56,239 Speaker 3: of the Gospel, and we had of course Sunday where 123 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 3: we had the surprise guest Nicki Minaj, We had Erica 124 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: interview her, We had Don Junior, we had then of 125 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 3: course JD.

But you know, that speech was so important 156 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: because of the all of the storylines that were going 157 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 3: into the event and then obviously following the event through 158 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: through the week. 159 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: He just added that moral clarity. 160 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: And it underscored for me, Blake, that this is a 161 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 3: politician that's not afraid to you know, really declare the 162 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 3: moral center of the conservative right, and to do it forcefully, 163 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 3: to do it articulately, articulately, And I just felt so 164 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 3: uplifted by that.

Vance brought the clarity that the movement needed. 169 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 3: And if you really go back and watch that speech 170 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: where he talks about getting rid of racism and the 171 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 3: dei anti meritocracy and saying it's okay to be you 172 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 3: don't have to apologize for being white in the country, 173 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 3: but you don't have to apologize for being Asian in 174 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 3: the country. That we are a Christian nation, that we 175 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 3: are a very diverse coalition, but we are pulling in 176 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 3: one direction. I genuinely think it was historic, it was important, 177 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 3: and it's going to be looking back this moment that 178 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 3: all of us can look to and say that was 179 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 3: the moment where things really began to crystallize again. 180 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, how about we let's play one point thirty. 181 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 6: The fruits of true Christianity are good husbands, patient fathers, 182 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 6: builders of great things, and slayers of dragons and yes 183 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 6: men who are willing to for a principle if that's 184 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 6: what God asked them to do, because so many of 185 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 6: us recognize that it is better to die a patriot 186 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 6: than live a coward. 187 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 4: I think that was the biggest applause line of his speech. 188 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 4: It was that line. It's almost too. 189 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 5: Bad we cut it off there, but it it was 190 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 5: a good line. 191 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 4: It really crystallized what Charlie stood for. And I think. 192 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 5: That's gonna that's got to be the glue that binds 193 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 5: the movement together in this year and probably the years 194 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 5: to come, the legacy of Charlie. That that great coalition builder, 195 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 5: that great event planner, that great speaker, that great show host. 196 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 4: That great man. 197 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 5: And I think that was the biggest thing about Amfest 198 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 5: was that we got the opportunity to spend four days 199 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 5: remembering him. 200 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, said Blake, that's a that's perfectly said. 201 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 3: Hey, everybody, this is Andrew Colvett, executive producer of The 202 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk Show.

And and by the way, 234 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: I just want to say that the team, uh that 235 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 3: the Turning Point team, the events team I have, I've 236 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 3: gotten just overwhelmed, inundated with people saying. 237 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: That was just how positive they are, how helpful they were. 238 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 3: Everybody has an interaction with a Turning Point staff member 239 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 3: at these events and they need something and they get help, 240 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 3: and there's just nobody like it. Nobody in the in 241 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 3: the in the space does this. And these are these 242 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 3: are like from top to bottom, the kids that you 243 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 3: know just got hired, you know, or to the top 244 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 3: level staff. There is so much just grassroots humility. And 245 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 3: this is a this is an event to serve the base, 246 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: to serve everyday Americans. If you walk around those halls, 247 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 3: it's just average everyday Americans that love their country that 248 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 3: are there to make sure that the the movement is 249 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 3: in a good place, that they want to honor Charlie, 250 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: honor his memory, and it's just it's just we the people, man. 251 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 3: This event is just we the people, Blake. We do 252 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 3: have that clip that you wanted, I believe set it 253 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 3: up for us from Jdvan Right. 254 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 5: It's just we're trying to figure out what America's identity is. 255 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 5: We're trying to figure out what the rights identity is. 256 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 5: And that's what a big theme of the event was. 257 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 5: And Charlie would always want to be searching for positive identifications. 258 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 5: You don't define the right by what things offend you, 259 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 5: or what things you disagree with or what things make 260 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 5: you angry. The best way to build a durable coalition 261 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 5: is to find positive shared things that can unite different peoples. 262 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 4: And JD. Vance made a case for one Charlie would 263 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 4: agree with. 264 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 5: We would agree with America as it's not a nation 265 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 5: where everyone is Christian, but it is a Christian nation. 266 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 4: Let's play one seventy one. 267 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 6: More than any time I can recount, people are talking 268 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 6: about American identity and figuring out what it is that 269 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 6: unites this But I want to say something here. 270 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 2: The only thing that is truly served. 271 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 6: As an anchor of the United States of America is 272 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 6: that we have been, and by the grace of God, 273 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 6: we always will be. 274 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: A Christian nation. 275 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 5: And he continued for a bit after that and elaborate 276 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 5: on what he meant. It wasn't just a throwaway line. 277 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 5: He talks about that not everyone in America as Christian. 278 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 5: Many follow other religions, as we know his own wife 279 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 5: is not a Christian. 280 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 4: But it's that America is. 281 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 5: It's built on this bedrock of Christian values, that that 282 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 5: it undergrads all of American history at undergrads, it's founding documents. 283 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 5: It's what drove America to become the greatest nation in 284 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 5: the world. It's what makes America such a desirable nation today. 285 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 5: And even if you are not Christian, you live in 286 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 5: a world that is completely pervaded by those Christian values 287 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 5: and that the preservation of them is central to keeping 288 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 5: America great. And I think he made a very strong 289 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 5: case for that. 290 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, he says Christianity is America's creed, the 291 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 3: shared moral language from the Revolution to the Civil War 292 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 3: and beyond. 293 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 2: And I thought that was. 294 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 3: A beautiful way to sum it up, because you know, 295 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 3: we've been talking about what is an America a lot 296 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 3: on this show. Charlie was talking about and he was 297 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 3: contemplating that notion a lot, and you know, we played 298 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 3: you know, clips or not clips. We showed quotes from 299 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 3: Teddy Roosevelt talking about what they were, you know, believed 300 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 3: in American to be in the early nineteen hundreds, and 301 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: that idea is something that we have to contend with 302 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 3: generation after generation, especially after the mass migration that we 303 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 3: have absorbed as a country over the last forty years. 304 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 3: And I think especially poignant was that moment because we 305 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: do have a lot more people in this country that 306 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 3: are not Christian. Church attendance rates have dropped among those 307 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 3: who used to be Christian, right that come from Christian 308 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 3: families and heritage and backgrounds, And so for him to 309 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 3: go out there into state definitively, I think, especially given 310 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 3: the fact that his own wife is not a professing Christian, 311 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 3: was a powerful, powerful moment. And it truly is uniting 312 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 3: if you let it, and if you let it be, 313 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 3: because it doesn't matter if you fest that same faith. 314 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 3: You are drawn to this country because of the freedoms 315 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 3: that are afforded us by the fact that our moral framework, 316 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: our laws, our customs are built upon the foundation of 317 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: Jesus Christ and the Christian faith. And that's something that 318 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 3: we can never lose sight of. That's something that Charlie 319 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 3: never lost sight of. 320 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 2: We are a Christian nation. And Amen, yes and aymn 321 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 2: and may it. 322 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 3: Always be that way. So here here to JD vance again. 323 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 3: The moral clarity is astounding. Candles were lit on Bondai 324 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 3: Beach by families, by children, by people of faith to 325 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 3: celebrate a festival of Light, a festival from Bible times, 326 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 3: one that Jesus himself celebrated. People gathered with hope, seeking 327 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 3: unity and comfort and tradition, but instead of light, there 328 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: was darkness, violence, fear, hatred showing itself at a time 329 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 3: meant for prayer and rejoicing. Times like this remind us 330 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 3: that even with the ceasefire in Israel, Jewish people are 331 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 3: being targeted simply because of their faith, and times like 332 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 3: this reminds us why the International Fellowship of Christians and 333 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: Jews exists to stand in the gap, providing safety and 334 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 3: security to God's people. The Fellowship brings together Christians and 335 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 3: Jews to be a light to suffering Jews in Israel, 336 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 3: the former Soviet Union, or wherever the needs are greatest. 337 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 3: Together we can make a real difference in the lives 338 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 3: of those who need hope the most.

She walks in 495 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 5: that you look different from what I was expecting, but 496 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 5: can't can't win them all. Should we dive into should 497 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 5: we get into rob Schneider.

Absolutely, Yeah. 501 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 5: You know, someone pointed out that he was really good 502 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 5: because he's a comic. Comedians they need to know when 503 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 5: something is discongruent because that is what drives comedy. But 504 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 5: then as a result, they also know what congruence is. 505 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 5: They know how to make a good serious point. And 506 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 5: I've always been very impressed with him when we've had 507 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 5: him on the show. He's very good at speaking to 508 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 5: faith topics and so on. And uh, he gave a 509 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 5: very good testimony about Charlie and about the attacks against 510 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 5: him and the attacks against all of us. Let's play 511 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 5: one forty one. 512 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 7: The left is trying to reframe Charlie into something he wasn't, 513 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 7: and by extension, all of us extremists, Nazis, fascists, white supremacists. 514 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 7: By taking moderate people with views held by the majority 515 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 7: and turning them into monsters hides the real monsters among us, 516 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 7: so when actual extremists show up, people can't tell the 517 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 7: difference anymore. Now here's the warning. If the right doesn't 518 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 7: learn from the Left's mistakes. If we start embracing our 519 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 7: extremists the way the Left embrace theirs, will go down 520 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 7: the same path they did. 521 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 4: And another one, because it's very quick. 522 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 7: On Charlie Kirk was only interested in the pursuit of 523 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 7: the divine truth and love of family and country and 524 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 7: freedom and saving the republic. 525 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 5: It was a good testimony, And like, I like that 526 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 5: line about having to learn from the Left because I 527 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 5: think I think that's a lesson we do need to 528 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 5: take in that we have to remember one reason we're 529 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 5: blessed enough to be here is that the Left had 530 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 5: a lot of wild radicals that they indulged in, indulgent, indulged, 531 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 5: and then it boiled over. And I guess we should 532 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 5: be grateful that it derailed their movement. 533 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 4: But I remember being there in. 534 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 5: Twenty nineteen, twenty twenty, twenty twenty one and people saying, yeah, 535 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 5: you have to get used to the woke moment. That's 536 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 5: going to be the rest of our lives is going 537 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 5: to be totally dominated by these people. And I think 538 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 5: it gave a very good spiritual perspective on that. 539 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, Blake, I think what was really hashed out again, 540 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 3: everybody's got an opinion, Everybody's like, no, we need to 541 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 3: shut down these people and block them out. And I 542 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 3: thought that's why I thought Jade Vance's speech was so 543 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 3: critically important, because it gave that moral clarity that leadership 544 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 3: at as a final speech of the event. 545 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: It kind of made it all make sense. 546 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 3: It crystallized everything and synthesized everything that people had just. 547 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 2: Experienced over the last four days. 548 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 3: But what we are trying to do, what Turning Point 549 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 3: has always been about, would try He's always been about, 550 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 3: is finding that dominant center, that core center of the movement, 551 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 3: and that that is big enough and broad enough and 552 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 3: dynamic enough, energized enough to win right to win those 553 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 3: kind of tough fights that we're gonna have in twenty 554 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 3: twenty six, twenty twenty eight. So where is that dominant 555 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 3: center of the movement that's center cut? And I feel 556 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 3: like that was what Rob Schneider was getting at, that 557 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 3: was what Glenn Beck was getting at, that was what 558 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 3: Jesse Waters was getting at, right Gutfeld and of course 559 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 3: jd Vance. And then you know, so it's like you're 560 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 3: gonna have people on either end of that center cut 561 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 3: feeling like it needs to go that way. More feeling 562 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 3: like it needs to go this way more. 563 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 2: But what we, what we? 564 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 3: What you saw, and what Charlie was always so genius 565 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 3: at was finding where that dominant core is. 566 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 2: And I feel like we really landed in that good spot. 567 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 5: Well, I think I like all of the clips we 568 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 5: got from from him. So let's let's do another robble, 569 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 5: which I think laid that out well. 570 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 4: One three. 571 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 7: I don't know about you, but when I voted November fifth, 572 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 7: twenty twenty four, I voted for closed borders. I voted 573 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 7: for affordable groceries. I voted for lower gas prices. I 574 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 7: voted for no more censorship, I voted for no more 575 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 7: men in women's sports. And I also voted to blow 576 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 7: up small boats off the coast of Venezuela. 577 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 5: What I like best about that is he is basically 578 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 5: saying I voted for the things that President Trump actually 579 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 5: promised to do during the campaign, because I think so 580 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 5: much resentment ens of being driven by people who they 581 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 5: decide they wanted things that weren't the campaign issues that 582 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 5: everyone agreed on even a year ago. 583 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 584 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 3: I mean, here's the big takeaway.

I mean, 613 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 3: these are door knockers, these are phone bankers, these are 614 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: precinct committeemen. These are the grassroots volunteers that make the 615 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 3: whole country work. They are the firewall to freedom. And 616 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 3: one of the things that I don't think online you 617 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 3: get as much because you get you get the sort 618 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 3: of more intense statements made by some high profile people, 619 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 3: you know, some of the infighting or the division or whatever. 620 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 3: One of the things I don't think people appreciate enough 621 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 3: Blake was just how much Christian faith was shared on 622 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 3: that stage and within the people attending the event. And 623 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 3: one of the best moments I believe is when Matt Shaw, 624 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 3: who plays third base for the Chicago Cubs, just a 625 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 3: few weeks before Charlie was murdered. I was with Charlie 626 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 3: at Wrigley Field and we got to hang out with Matt. 627 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 3: Matt is a It was a neighbor of Charlie's and 628 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 3: the off season in Phoenix, and he came and he 629 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 3: got a really amazing question. 630 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and play it. He gave a great 631 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 2: answer one seventy two. 632 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 11: How do you share Jesus with your fellow teammates? 633 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 10: The best thing that I can do isn't to talk 634 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 10: to them and disciple them, but it's to show what 635 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 10: my beliefs look like in my life. And sometimes it's 636 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 10: not a conversation, but it's simply the light that you 637 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 10: shine around to other people. And because of how much 638 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 10: love you have for other people and for Jesus, it's 639 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 10: going to show them, Hey, maybe this is something I'm 640 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 10: interested in. Maybe this is something that can provide me 641 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 10: fulfillment in my life. And I hope that for everyone, 642 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 10: and I hope it for you. 643 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 3: Cam Then just just a beautiful moment, really heartfelt, really simple. 644 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 4: It's great. 645 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 5: It's great, And I'm looking at the same people who 646 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 5: I'm looking now online, at the same people who freaked 647 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 5: out that he went to the memorial, and of. 648 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,239 Speaker 4: Course they're freaked out.

Blake. You know this. 654 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 3: Grandma Jeanie from Chico, not to be confused with another. 655 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 5: Now totally different California towns we have versus norcl. 656 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 3: The I mean, this was an amazing, amazing story because 657 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 3: she gets accosted as she's working at Target.
