1
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 1: American student organization in the country, fighting for the future

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: of our republic. My call is to fight evil and

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 1: is just feeling good, you're gonna end up miserable. But

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: if the most important thing is doing good, you'll end

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You got to

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: stop sending your kids to college. You should get married

9
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 1: as young as possible and have as many kids as possible.

10
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: Go start at turning point, you would say college chapter.

11
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,599
Speaker 1: Go start aturning point youould say high school chapter. Go

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 1: find out how your church can get involved. Sign up

13
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: and become an activist. I gave my life to the

14
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 1: Lord in fifth grade, most important decision I ever made

15
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: in my life, and I encourage you to do the same.

16
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: Here I am.

17
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 2: Lord, Use me.

18
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: Buckle up, everybody, Here we go. The Charlie Kirk Show

22
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: All right, we are back. Hour two is underway. It

23
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 2: is the Ask us Anything, And by the way, I

24
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 2: just couldn't say enough good things about our guests here. Obviously,

25
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: Mikey McCoy, the mediocretive Mikey McCoy, let's not insert an adjective,

26
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 2: Mike McCoy. And then the what you call him, the

27
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: jacked pastors, You are pretty jacked. He's a formidable.

28
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: Heard his voice, he is a formidable presence.

29
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm going to say something I shouldn't. If

30
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 2: I was coming down the side of the street in

31
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 2: the middle of the night and you were walking past me,

32
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: I would go to the other side just because you're

33
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: so big.

34
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 4: Well you know what, Andrew you are. Legitimately, if I

35
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 4: was walking down the street and I saw you with

36
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 4: that square Jon, I'm going to the other side as well.

37
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: Shin bogging. Before we get to the whole I was

38
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 2: gonna say, I was going to say, uh I was.

39
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: I ended the last hour talking about men with chest yes,

40
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 2: and that is I mean, I just I really do

41
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 2: think there is no more powerful force in civilization than

42
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: a fully formed men. And I did steal that from C. S. Lewis,

43
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: but it really is who you are. You're a man

44
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: of courage, you speak your mind, you are fearless. Maybe

45
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: you're not fearless. Maybe you have fear, but you overcome

46
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 2: it with your courage. And I know that all comes

47
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 2: from your faith, and Charlie saw that in you as well.

48
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 2: So we're just so glad to have you.

49
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 4: Hey, it's an honor. First and foremost, I pay respect

50
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 4: and homage to the legacy of Charlie Curtin. I will

51
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 4: never forget him. He came along and supported my ministry

52
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 4: when I had four hundred followers on Instagram, before I

53
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 4: was known for going viral at school board meetings. Charlie

54
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 4: believed in the work that I was doing, and so

55
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,519
Speaker 4: I have to always keep that at the forefront. We

56
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 4: live in a day where loyalties don't matter. People betray

57
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 4: you for nothing. It's rare where you see that a

58
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 4: person may have had their demise, but yet and still

59
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 4: the person remains consistent. We live in an age of

60
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 4: inconsistent people. I won't betray his legacy. I'll continue to

61
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: support TPUSA, support Erica Kirk, who's doing a phenomenal job.

62
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 4: And you guys are trying to do something that's merely impossible.

63
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 4: You're trying to carry on the work of a leader

64
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 4: who's essentially a one of one leader, once in a

65
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 4: lifetime leader. But you understand that what God gave Charlie

66
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 4: was for Charlie. But there's an anointing and grace that

67
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 4: God gives us all, and we have to flow in

68
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 4: that anointing and in that grace may ten people to

69
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 4: equal to what Charlie did. But yet and still we

70
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 4: can do it because of the anointing that God leaves

71
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 4: to do the work.

72
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 2: Amen. Well well said, and you know we're just grateful

73
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 2: to have I'm glad. We texted last night and I

74
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 2: was like, dude, you gotta come.

75
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 3: Indeed, yeah, before we get the questions I wanted to get.

76
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 3: We talked about made the assistant suicide thing in Canada

77
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 3: and it got a lot of emails, and I really

78
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 3: a lot of people had strongness, and I wanted to

79
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 3: read some of them because I thought it's important to

80
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 3: really drive this point home, especially when it resonates with

81
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: our audience. Debrah points out, I have a friend in

82
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 3: Canada who has lupus or had lupas and could not

83
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 3: get proper care, so instead they just offered her maid.

84
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 3: She had just turned fifty, she has a husband, she

85
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 3: has a child. She refused for obvious reasons, but Canada's

86
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 3: health system is broken. Praise God that she is a Christian.

87
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: They're literally shoving it down people's throat. Yes, they'll just

88
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 2: say they're proactively encouraging it.

89
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: You want to know, yea, and yeah, you want to know.

90
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 3: What really freaks me out the most about this is

91
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 3: how fast in one generation you can just switch to

92
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: what was radical but is now normal. And I was

93
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: talking to my family about, you know, growing up, their

94
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: generation would see movies where you could talk on the

95
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 3: phone to your watch, and they're like, and that happened

96
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 3: in like twenty thirteen with the Apple Watch. But then

97
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 3: now it's like, way early on the concept of a

98
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 3: third trimester abortion was radical now and the concept of

99
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 3: of you know, a medically assistant suicide radical, or transing

100
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 3: your kid was radical, but within like a fifty year period,

101
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 3: it's now normal. And so you have to ask yourself

102
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: what's next, like what comes after that? And it's like

103
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: they're going to start normalizing marriage to an underage child,

104
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 3: They're going to start normalizing political polygamy or yeah, yeah, yeah,

105
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 3: yeah yeah, And in Canada it's I feel mention this

106
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 3: Canada was more Christian than America after World War Two,

107
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 3: if you can believe it. But I want a couple more.

108
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 3: Joanne says, I know all about made in Canada because

109
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 3: Canadian doctors bury their mistakes. My uncle had an ear

110
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 3: infection at Quack Blue Air into it ruptured his ear

111
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 3: drum and the infection spread. He traveled to Vancouver. They

112
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 3: did nothing. He couldn't stand the pain any longer, and

113
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 3: the doctor was more than happy to help him end

114
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 3: it all. My aunt is still devastated two years later

115
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 3: by the way he was treated. This is an evil

116
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 3: ideology of death.

117
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 2: Amen.

118
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 3: And one more, Aaron points out, they should know that First, Corinthians,

119
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: do you not know that you are God's temple and

120
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 3: that God's spirit dwells in you. If anyone destroys God's temple,

121
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 3: God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy and

122
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 3: you are that temple. Assisted suicide is an abomination.

123
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: Wow.

124
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 3: Amen to that, Aaron. But we have some subscriber questions,

125
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 3: so let's dive into those. Our first one is from Caleb. Caleb,

126
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 3: are you there unmute yourself?

127
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 2: Yes? Howdy?

128
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 5: I think great share that you guys have today because

129
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 5: I had two church questions. I wanted to ask you guys.

130
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 3: Excellent, excellent, what is it?

131
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 5: Yeah? My first question was, many churches today seem to

132
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 5: be struggling to keep young people connected and engaged. From

133
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 5: your perspective, what does the biggest issue churches need to

134
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 5: fix and what steps can they take to rebuild their communities?

135
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 4: Well, first and foremost, the Bible says that God's truth

136
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 4: endures to all generations. With that in mind, we don't

137
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 4: need a baby boom or gospel. We don't need an

138
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 4: X Gospel, we don't need a gen Z Gospel. We

139
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 4: need the gospels preached by men who have been impacted

140
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: and changed by the gospel. And so about seven or

141
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 4: eight years ago I went to Barnes and Nobles to

142
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 4: gain some understanding on what books were impacting kids. And

143
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 4: seventy percent of the books that I saw that was

144
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 4: postured in the front of the store were about the

145
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 4: occult world or pagan worship, which told me that people

146
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 4: want to delve into mysticystems. They want to know that

147
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 4: there's something out there that's supernatural, and there is there's

148
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 4: some false gods, but there's a real God that supersedes

149
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 4: over the Earth, and now more than ever, we need

150
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 4: to have an emphasis in the Christian Church on the Father,

151
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 4: the Son, and the Holy Spirit. People need to have

152
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 4: an encounter with God. And when you have an encounter

153
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 4: with God, no one can shake what you have seen

154
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 4: and what you know. In addition, pastors must engage the culture.

155
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 4: We can't leave it up to social media and TikTok

156
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 4: to educate the church on what's right, what's true, and

157
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 4: what's just. Many pastors today won't touch issues of transgenderism, abortion,

158
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 4: the school system, issues of whether some states want school

159
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 4: choice or not or not. They won't touch it because

160
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 4: they are afraid to tick off their more liberal members.

161
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 4: And so I say it this way that weak pool

162
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 4: pitch create weak Christians. Scary preachers create scary sheep. And

163
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 4: what we need now more than ever, our pastors who

164
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 4: are not afraid to be bludgeoned right to be crucified,

165
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: crucified afresh because of what they stand for and what

166
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 4: they believe. Because of that, so many say nothing and

167
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 4: they allow the podcaster to dominate what's being said.

168
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 3: Wow.

169
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 2: I also think comes to mind Proverbs twenty twenty two six.

170
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: Train up the child and the way he should go

171
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

172
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 2: It ties into what we were talking about with the Scouts,

173
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 2: you know. That's why when we had ten million Scouts

174
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 2: in nineteen seventy six, ten young men, it was a

175
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 2: lot of young men being raised up in the way

176
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: they should go. Let's go to the next question.

177
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 3: I think I saw it. Caleb had a second half,

178
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 3: but I think we did get to that.

179
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: The main thing struggling with the church is struggling with this.

180
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: We got weak pastors. Indeed, Yeah, I think we got.

181
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 4: It all right.

182
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 3: Thank you Caleb for your question. The online world moves fast,

183
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 3: and it's moving even faster these days. That's why TikTok

184
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 3: approaches teen safety with families in mind from the start,

185
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 3: because discovery and creativity are both wonderful things, but it's

186
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 3: important to make sure that safety comes first as well.

187
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 3: On TikTok, teenagers have over fifty built in protections right

188
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 3: from when they join accounts. Routines all start private by default,

189
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 3: They're not open to the entire world, and for those

190
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 3: under sixteen, direct messages are turned off. Only their friends

191
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 3: can comment on their videos. And that kind of approach

192
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 3: matters because feeling confident and comfortable about these platforms your

193
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 3: teenagers are on shouldn't mean digging through a bunch of

194
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 3: menus and trying to set everything up yourself and worrying

195
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: that you got it wrong. TikTok is taking a proactive approach.

196
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 3: Their protections are built in from the moment those teenagers join,

197
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 3: so that safety and peace of mind for parents is

198
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 3: there right from the start. All of this is to

199
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 3: say when safety comes first, discovery and createtivity can follow

200
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 3: without fear. Learn more by going to TikTok dot com

Speaker 3: Our next is rob rob unneute yourself and what's your question?

203
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: Hey, gentlemen, Good afternoon, Good afternoon.

204
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 6: So, uh so, I live in a smaller county in Florida,

205
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 6: and actually a couple of months back, actually my wife

206
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 6: called into you guys again. You get so many callers,

207
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 6: you know, every week. I'm sure you don't remember, but

208
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 6: she had called in and asked about how do we

209
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 6: deal with an issue within our county, essentially that they're

210
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 6: trying to hit us with an additional tax, and we

211
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 6: had a unique idea for it. You guys actually gave

212
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 6: her a really cool quote. You played a quote from

213
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 6: Erica about having a velvet spine of steel and withstanding

214
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 6: people that, yeah, yeah, yeah, really cool and quotes everywhere.

215
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 6: But so, anyway, so they want to raise our taxes here, right,

216
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 6: So we dug into the budget and what we found

217
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 6: was kind of alarming. So over the course of about

218
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 6: a ten year period, we actually found in our little

219
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 6: Florida county about one hundred and eighty million dollars that

220
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 6: nobody can really account for for why they collected at

221
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 6: nine I'm an accountant, I have eleven spreadsheets all over this,

222
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 6: and I mean it's actually legit, and not to get

223
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 6: too nerdy on you, but basically, our property taxes grew

224
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 6: by about one hundred and sixty one percent over the

225
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 6: last ten years, but population only went up by about

226
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 6: thirty five percent, inflations about twenty eight percent, So there's

227
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 6: a big gap essentially. So like last year, they collected

228
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 6: what would have been the equivalent of an actual like

229
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 6: forty seven million dollars then they should have if they

230
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 6: would have used the twenty fifteen baseline, and it's like

231
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 6: close to two hundred million. So anyways, My question is,

232
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 6: so we're looking to kind of relaunch this and present

233
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 6: this information to our county on Monday. And one of

234
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 6: the things we're doing is online. We're building out a website.

235
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 6: We're gonna have an accountability scorecard as well for every

236
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 6: elected official, every candidate in our area, and basically we

237
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 6: want to get them on record publicly and saying, hey,

238
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 6: do you support having an independent audit of our county?

239
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 6: And only after doing that will you even think about

240
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 6: raising taxes. So my question is is how do you

241
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 6: actually get these officials to respond? And I ironically say this,

242
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 6: Jen's the only reason she's not talking my wife on

243
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 6: this right now. She's actually talking to a city council

244
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 6: member right now. But we've had a lot of back

245
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 6: and forth with people and they don't really want to

246
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 6: commit to anything. So how do we get there?

247
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 2: In Congress?

248
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 6: Randy Fine got it?

249
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 2: Actually, you know Randy Fine is going to be I

250
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 2: guess just confirmed to speak at our event in DC.

251
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 2: With that, Anna Paulina Luna is running well.

252
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 3: So big picture, I think getting that the heart of

253
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 3: it is there is I think the flawed assumption that

254
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 3: government actually cares about stopping waste and in a lot

255
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 3: of cases it doesn't. They often are the beneficiaries of

256
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 3: higher waste that can often translate to having more personnel

257
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,199
Speaker 3: under them, just higher salaries for themselves, higher benefits for themselves,

258
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 3: and more to the point, if you're in the government,

259
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 3: there's not much of a penalty for having a lot

260
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 3: of waste. It's not your money, it's somebody else's money.

261
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 3: So the people you do, unfortunately have to get whipped

262
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 3: up about it are the people who actually pay the taxes,

263
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 3: because they're the ones who are harmed by this. And

264
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 3: this is one of the big existential problems in America

265
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: is as you tilt to where the number of people

266
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 3: meaningfully paying taxes is less than half the population, you

267
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 3: get to a point where there are arguably not enough

268
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 3: people who have a stake in anything being run effectively,

269
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 3: being run efficiently. So I think you have a good

270
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 3: idea with trying to create websites create more local awareness

271
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 3: of the scale of the problem. But in the end,

272
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 3: something that has to happen is you basically have to

273
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 3: make sure that this is something people will turn out

274
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 3: and vote for in local races to change.

275
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, can you send us your website when it's up,

276
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: please because I will route that send you the backing. Yeah,

277
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest with you.

278
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 6: My dream would be again, I don't expect you to

279
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 6: do it on the spot, but you guys and TP

280
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 6: us a action I was not not money, not people,

281
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 6: just a endorsement of you know what, you guys are

282
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 6: doing good work and we're behind you. That would mean

283
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 6: the world if you guys saw then was legitimate. Now

284
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 6: and I understand and the need of that.

285
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I we got to edit, of course, but

286
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 2: I you know assuming, I mean you guys, you guys remembers,

287
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 2: so you've already have our good will and I want

288
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 2: to I want to see it, but I would route

289
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 2: it to some some officials that we could get to,

290
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: especially in Florida, we know a lot. Also, we just

291
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 2: had Byron Donald's on the show. If he was aware

292
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 2: of this, I'm sure he'd be very interested. And then

293
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: but to Blake's point, getting pop popular support, ground swell

294
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 2: support in your local community and showing up at the

295
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 2: city council meetings demanding accountability as opposed to raising taxes,

296
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: I mean, this is the problem. You know, you have

297
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 2: a Republican district that's acting like a bunch of Democrats.

298
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 2: What a Democrats do in California, They tax and they

299
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: spend and then they want to tax some more. Now

300
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 2: they need billionaire's wealth tax, right, So this is this

301
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 2: is what they do. And instead of fixing the problem underlying,

302
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 2: it's not that you have a revenue problem, you have

303
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 2: a spending problem. So stop acting like Democrats. Stop taxing

304
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 2: us more. We want More's listen, taxation is essentially theft

305
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 2: at some level right when, especially when it's not when

306
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: it's not being used responsibly, it's certainly morally incumbent upon

307
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 2: those elected leaders to use it responsibly. So I'm very

308
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 2: motivated to help you and we need to. You know,

309
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 2: sometimes you need to get examples, you need to scalp

310
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 2: to basically get your point across. So please send us

311
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 2: your website and we'll go from there. But good work.

312
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 2: I love how motivated you guys are. This is the

313
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: type of grassroots base energy that we need to take

Speaker 2: our country back. So hat tip to you guys, and

315

Speaker 2: you know, God bless you, and we need to. You know,

316
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 2: sometimes you need to get examples, you need to scalp

317
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: to basically get your point across. So please send us

318
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 2: your website and we'll go from there. But good work.

319
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: I love how motivated you guys are. This is the

320
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 2: type of grassroots base energy that we need to take

321
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 2: our country back. So hat tip to you guys, and

322
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 2: you know, God bless you. Can we get to the

323
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 2: next question here it would be Mick No, I think

324
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 2: it's Brandon. Brandon, please unmute yourself. Welcome to the show.

325
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 2: Hey guys, can everyone hear me? Yes, of course.

326
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 7: So my question is how do we, you know, balance

327
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 7: what it tells us in scripture to obey the authority

328
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 7: we live in with fighting unjust laws.

329
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 4: There are so many ways that you can unpack that question.

330
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 4: The thing is, the powers that be are ordained by God.

331
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,479
Speaker 4: That's Romans chapter thirteen.

332
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 2: Render under Caesar.

333
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 4: That's right. But the problem with Caesar, Caesar wants too much.

334
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 4: Right they Caesar wants to continue to take take from us.

335
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 4: When you look at the Old Testament, you see the

336
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 4: Hebrew boys who were thrown into a fire reference because

337
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 4: they resisted what the king wanted. You see Daniel thrown

338
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 4: in the lions down because he resisted what the king wanted.

339
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 4: You see David fighting Goliath. Why because he resisted what

340
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 4: Goliath was saying about the people of God. And so

341
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 4: there lies a point, all right, where if the laws

342
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 4: are unjust, i e. We are being forced to do

343
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 4: things that are against our biblical worldview, we shouldn't succumb

344
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 4: to those laws. We shouldn't do it, all right, we

345
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 4: shouldn't adhere to it. Hats off to the mighty men

346
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 4: of God who during the pandemic were told to close

347
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 4: their churches, but instead of closing their churches, they kept

348
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 4: their churches open. Now, many of them received fines, I'm

349
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 4: sure the because that you know, and it finds, and

350
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 4: they were pilloriad and bludgeon because of their belief system.

351
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 4: But yet instead they kept their churches open. And what

352
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 4: we're seeing right now is that the churches that resisted

353
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 4: during the pandemic, those churches are thriving, and the churches

354
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 4: that close down many of them are still shuttered. And so, yes,

355
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 4: there is a point where we have to disagree and

356
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 4: disobey the laws of the land if they go against

357
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 4: scripture and what God has called us to do. We

358
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 4: should do that dutifully, but we should also do it winsomely,

359
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 4: not with the intent to create disorder or chaos, but

360
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 4: we cannot support laws that go against our biblical review.

361
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is why I brought up the example from

362
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 2: the Acts. Sure. Sure they were being told you can't

363
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 2: spread the gospel the Gospel, and they said, sorry, that's

364
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 2: our mandate. We have to do it against the authority

365
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 2: of the land.

366
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 3: I would also add that specifically here in America, and

367
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 3: Charlie used to talk about this all the time, that

368
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 3: honoring those an authority is different in our country. And

369
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 3: I was at dinner at the CED last night and

370
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 3: they were like shocked. I was going through the Constitution.

371
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 3: They're like, I just we love this article, we love

372
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 3: this this Declaration. It's just the most powerful document. But

373
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 3: having free speech, having the Second Amendment, having all these things,

374
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 3: the authority in our country is the people. And so

375
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 3: when you're called to honor those in authority when there's

376
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 3: unjust rules, specifically the example of COVID nineteen when they're

377
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 3: shuttering the doors, but strip clubs who are allowed to

378
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 3: be open, right when they're forcing pastors not to have

379
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 3: counseling sessions with their congregants, but marijuana dispensaries were open,

380
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 3: you know, And so you have to ask yourself. You know,

381
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 3: here in America, we the people are the authority. But

382
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 3: then even greater than that, you guys talked about. You

383
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 3: know in Matthew, where Christ talks about rendering unto Caesar,

384
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 3: what is Caesar's he says, hold up the Denarius, And

385
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 3: so they hold up Narius. He says, Who's face is

386
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 3: on that it? Caesar says, okay, so render unto Caesar's

387
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 3: what is Caesar's? And to God what is God's. But now,

388
00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 3: in modern day society, specifically America and in the West,

389
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 3: we've rendered unto Caesar what is God's? Marriage is God's,

390
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 3: the right to life is God's. And yet we have

391
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 3: this notion in our head that that belongs to the government,

392
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 3: that belongs to Caesar's. You know, that's a political issue.

393
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 3: I can't touch that. That's a political issue. I don't

394
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 3: want to talk about that. But no, it's not. It's

395
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 3: not a political issue. You guys are you're lost, you're

396
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 3: confused about that. It's actually a biblical issue. You've rendered

397
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 3: unto Caesar what is God's?

398
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 2: Well, and this is the declaration of independence. We hold

399
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: these truths to be self evident, that all men are

400
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with

401
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 2: certain unalienable rights. That among these are life, liberty, and

402
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 2: the pursuit of happiness. And that's the beauty of the country.

403
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 2: I completely agree. I literally was typing in we the

404
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: people are the sovereign. We are the sovereign from which

405
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 2: the consent. We allow the government to rule and govern

406
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: by our consent because we are the sovereign. And the

407
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:07,239
Speaker 2: declaration of independence is a love letter to humanity and

408
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 2: to God. Because God gives us those rights, a government

409
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 2: cannot take those from us, because they come divinely from

410
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 2: the Creator.

411
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 4: That's right. Acts Chapter four, verse twenty nine says the

412
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 4: now Lord behold their threatenings, and grant unto thy servants

413
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,239
Speaker 4: that with all boldness they may speak Thy word. Verse

414
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 4: thirty one says, and when they had prayed, the place

415
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 4: was shaken. They were assembled together, and they were all

416
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 4: filled with the holy ghosts, and they spake the word

417
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 4: of God with boldness. That word boldness, and the Greek

418
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 4: gives you the word parhesia, which means the unreservedness of utterance.

419
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 4: It also means freedom of speech. Boldness is freedom of speech.

420
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 4: And so when the preachers preaches the whole counsel of God,

421
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,439
Speaker 4: from Genesis to Revelations. That's freedom of speech. When he

422
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 4: holds back truth, it's not freedom of speech. And so

423
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 4: we see pastors all around our country with holding freedom

424
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 4: of speech because they fear government.

425
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 2: Before he ever stepped behind a microphone, Charlie understood something important.

426
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 2: Leadership begins with learning. He didn't chase a diploma or

427
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 2: a title. He chased truth. Through Hillsdale College's free online courses.

428
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 2: He studied the great works of the Classics, the principles

429
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,679
Speaker 2: of the American Founding, and the life changing truths of

430
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 2: the Bible. Those ideas didn't just inform him, they shaped

431
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 2: his character, strengthened his convictions, and prepared him for the

432
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 2: challenges ahead of. One of the courses he took was

433
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 2: The Genesis Story, taught by Hillsdale Professor doctor Justin Jackson.

434
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 2: This free online course explores the relationship between God and man,

435
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 2: what happens when that relationship is broken, and the path

436
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 2: toward reconciliation. It's a real college course, rigorous, thoughtful, and

437
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 2: accessible to anyone willing to learn. You can take the

438

443
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 2: next question, I.

444
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 3: Believe, Yeah, Nick, un meet yourself and what's your question?

445
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 8: Hey, good morning fellas. It's still ten o'clock over here.

446
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 8: But my question, Mike, you mentioned earlier the normalization of

447
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 8: these crazy things like transiting the kids and you know,

448
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 8: nonsense like that. And one of the things that we've

449
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 8: unfortunately seen normalized is violence against Conservatives and Christians, whether

450
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 8: that's as far as trying to assassinate the president or

451
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,959
Speaker 8: you know, unfortunately successfully assassinating Charlie Kirk, down to you know,

452
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 8: just people getting assaulted like I was assaulted during the

453
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 8: first Trump administration when I was in school. There was

454
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 8: a video going around Twitter a couple of weeks ago,

455
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 8: this big kid just sucker punching this kid who had

456
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 8: an ice A support I sign. And so with that,

457
00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:02,439
Speaker 8: how do we effectively fight that culture of violence is

458
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 8: okay against conservatives while maintaining our biblical values?

459
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 2: Hmm, Yeah, it's like it.

460
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like when when, for example, you brought up

461
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 3: the COVID example, when the government tells you not to

462
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 3: do something and you know that it's a god given

463
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 3: right to do the opposite, you stand in boldness to

464
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 3: do it, whether or not you will be attacked, or

465
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 3: whether or not you go to jail. And it's because

466
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 3: you are fighting for something bigger, something greater than yourself,

467
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 3: specifically when it comes to the values of truth that

468
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 3: we hold. And so if the left is threatening violence

469
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 3: against you, you know that you have a duty to

470
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,880
Speaker 3: stand up for that truth, to stand up for your values,

471
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 3: regardless of if you're going to be attacked or not.

472
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,439
Speaker 3: And unfortunately, the trajectory of the left, especially when it

473
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 3: comes to violence here in America, is they're becoming increasingly successful,

474
00:25:54,720 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 3: not just in them assassinating our people, but also when

475
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 3: it comes to the assassins, possibly in the case of

476
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 3: Luigi Mangoni, the left mobilizing to make him this like hero.

477
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 3: He's all he's a full care So every time there's

478
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 3: a hearing at the courthouse, there's a bunch of leftist

479
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 3: protesters that want to see Luigi and Mangioni walk free.

480
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 3: For killing a man in cold blood, for assassinating a

481
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 3: man for no other reason than he did not like

482
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 3: the healthcare system that he was in charge of it.

483
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 3: And it's very dark because this can succeed. It has

484
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 3: succeeded in the past, where movements that love violence, embrace

485
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 3: violence and promote it have successfully gotten They've had killers

486
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 3: get away with things, they've gotten them very lenient sentences.

487
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 3: You can see this if you want an ominous example,

488
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 3: This would happen regularly in Russia before they had the

489
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 3: Bolshevik Revolution, constant culture of assassinations and people who would

490
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: get off quite lightly in many cases for involvement in those.

491
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,360
Speaker 3: And so how do we fight it, well, I would

492
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 3: say politically a very important step. In areas where we

493
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 3: have power, for example in Red States right now, and

494
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 3: for that matter, in the federal government. You need to

495
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 3: take a position of maximum hostility to politically driven violence,

496
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 3: of course, and that can involve obviously prosecuting everyone you can,

497
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 3: but also you have to lay down the law a bit.

498
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 3: If your organization is clearly engineering riots, we're going to

499
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 3: say you like, yeah, we need actual we should probably

500
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,959
Speaker 3: change raiko and make sure Raiko is capable of prosecuting. Yeah,

501
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 3: organizations like that. You just you can't take a casual attitude.

502
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 3: And so, for example, if you have these riots that

503
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 3: happen on a campus to try to shut down a

504
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 3: turning point speaker, as happened to Charlie many times, you

505
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 3: have to actually say, this is a much bigger deal

506
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,479
Speaker 3: than we've acted like it is in the past. This

507
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 3: is an attempt to destroy freeingo speech and to violently

508
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 3: intimidate someone against doing something. Yeah, bam, you were trying

509
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 3: to strip someone of their civil rights. We're going to

510
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 3: throw you in prison for a decade.

511
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:55,679
Speaker 2: Thank you.

512
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 3: Come again.

513
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: Well, oh go ahead, Mike.

514
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 3: I was just gonna say, call it out where you

515
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: see it too. President Trump did such a great job

516
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 3: at the State of Union when literally the Democrats are

517
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 3: not standing up for Arena Zarutska violently murdered.

518
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 2: They didn't stand up when he said we got to

519
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 2: stand up against political violence either. They didn't care. They

520
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 2: don't care. These people hate you, well, they hate you.

521
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 2: And here here's what I would say too. Just I'm

522
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 2: thinking about Charlie. You know, Charlie was aware of the

523
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 2: threats against him. He was It's something he talked about

524
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 2: on the show. I've seen the clips circulating online a lot,

525
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 2: and you know, I'm reminded of Scripture. Do not fear

526
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.

527
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 2: Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body.

528
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 2: And hell, you know, there's a lot of people that

529
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 2: believe in God, there's very few that fear him. And

530
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 2: so as we can contemplate all of these questions, these deep, troubling,

531
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: profound questions, ask yourself, do you just believe in God?

532
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 2: Or do you fear him? And Charlie feared God. Charlie

533
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 2: did everything because he feared God. I endeavor to be

534
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 2: a man that fears God and doesn't fear man. And

535
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 2: last thing I will say, and then I want to

536
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: hear from Pastor John. We have a spiritual rot in

537
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 2: this country. And there's a whole political party that has

538
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 2: basically removed God from their platform. They've denied his edicts

539
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 2: and his instructions and his commands. And so what we

540
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,479
Speaker 2: really need is we need revival. Now the Loft's going

541
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 2: to call Christian nationalism and I'll do those smear jobs.

542
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 2: We need revival and that ultimately is the only thing

543
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: that's going to give enough people enough courage to face it.

544
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 4: Consider the climate of where the early church was after

545
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 4: the killing, the open killing of Jesus. John I believe

546
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 4: it's twenty verse nineteen says, Then the same day, at evening,

547
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 4: being the first day of the week, when the doors

548
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 4: were shut where the disciples were a symbol for fear

549
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 4: of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst

550
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 4: and sent into them, peace be unto you. This is

551
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 4: after Jesus was killed, and the disciples are now in

552
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 4: the upper room. They're hiding out, afraid, terrified for their lives.

553
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 4: We don't want to go beyond these walls because they

554
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 4: may kill us as well, because we just watched them

555
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 4: kill our savior. Charlie believed that to live is Christ,

556
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 4: but to die is gain. There's a difference. There's a

557
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 4: mentality that's required to do kingdom work. You know, most

558
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 4: people don't really know what that place looks like spiritually

559
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 4: and mentally. But you have to become desensitized to the threats.

560
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 4: The threats are intended to quiet you, to steining you,

561
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 4: to keep you from speaking up. The threats are supposed

562
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 4: to cause you to neuter your voice, censor yourself, self censorship. Right,

563
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 4: all of these things are intentional. It's a plan to

564
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 4: keep a person from doing what they know is just

565
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 4: right and good. But Jesus spoke to his disciples and

566
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 4: told them peace be unto you, and then he goes

567
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 4: on to show them proof that he existed. And then

568
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 4: ultimately he gives them, you know, the initial down payment

569
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 4: of the Holy Spirit. Yeah, he breathes on them and

570
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 4: gives them the power to go beyond their fears. And

571
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 4: so the movement within Turning Point USA will thrive, it

572
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 4: will continue to grow. So as long as we move

573
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 4: beyond the fear, the threat of retribution, what could happen.

574
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what's going to happen. We're all gonna

575
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 4: die one day. That's what's gonna happen. Yeah, that is

576
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 4: a constant, it's not a variable. At some point, at

577
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 4: some time, it will happen. That's it. And so the

578
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,239
Speaker 4: thing is, we want to fall forward while hanging and

579
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 4: die with our boots on. We don't want to rust out,

580
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,959
Speaker 4: we want to wear out. There's a difference. There's some

581
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 4: people who will choose to rust out. I'm not going

582
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 4: to fight, I'm not going to contend because of the threat. Okay,

583
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 4: but I just told you earlier that boldness means freedom

584
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 4: of speech. Yes, we have to get back to that,

585
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 4: to that secure place of biblical boldness, where we speak

586
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 4: knowing that the threat is coming, because it may come,

587
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 4: but we cannot die an hour or a second or

588
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 4: a minute before God wills it to be. Yes, no

589
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 4: man can erase that, No man can stop that until

590
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 4: we speak knowing that Christ will protect this.

591
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 2: Well, we know that the you know, the blood of

592
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 2: the martyrs is the seed of the church. Indeed, and

593
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 2: so what and I say this, and I'll say it again,

594
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 2: what man endeavors to stop, God has already unleashed it

595
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 2: and can't stop. And so that's we rest in that

596
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 2: peace we have to because yes, and by the way,

597
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 2: the revival is is is already unleashed it. It is

598
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 2: and the pews that young people especially are going back

599
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 2: to church, and they're going back to the full gospel

600
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 2: that's there, not going back to weak church.

601
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 3: Well to your point on the I mean it's right

602
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 3: behind you Andrew sinners in the hands of an angry God.

603
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 3: That's a sermon for those of you who have not

604
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 3: read that sermon. Today, go read that sermon, and that

605
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 3: is what the gospel used speak. Did you know during

606
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 3: that sermon there use when like literally during this sermon

607
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 3: there'd be people balling their eyes out out of fear

608
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 3: of God, that they would have to pull them out

609
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 3: of the congregation because they are a distraction from the sermon,

610
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 3: sinners in the hands of an angry God. Today, when

611
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 3: when when congregants are leaving the church during a sermon,

612
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 3: it's because they were offended, not because the fear of God,

613
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 3: not because they are crying out of fear of God.

614
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 3: So it's the it's shifted, it's shifted. And so this

615
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 3: this idea of fear that you might be attacked or

616
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 3: killed by by the left for speaking truth, it's actually gain.

617
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 3: It is to die is to gain. All of this

618
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 3: is gained. And so the gospel has changed. I want

619
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 3: to be found do the work that God called me

620
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 3: to do when it is my time to go home.

621
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 3: That's I do not want to be found on a

622
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,919
Speaker 3: golf course drinking on a Thursday morning. That's right, like that,

623
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 3: that is not our goal in life. It's the opposite.

624
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,359
Speaker 3: And I think you did like the rust, for I

625
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 3: love it like it's just so powerful.

626
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 2: Hi folks, Andrew Colvett here, I'd like to tell you

Speaker 2: hearing me talk about why Refi for some time now.

00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 2: We are all in with these guys. If you or

Speaker 2: take my advice and give them a call. Maybe you're

Speaker 2: We go to campuses all over America and we see

00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 2: student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt.

639
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 2: Many of them don't even know how much they owe.

Speaker 2: Andrews sent you. We have a question here from Liz.

645
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:22,760
Speaker 2: You Liz.

646
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 3: We lost Liz, but we wanted to get to her

647
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 3: a question. She says, I live in Calvert County, Maryland.

648
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 3: My question is did TPUSA try to open up a

649
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 3: group in one of the public schools but was shut

650
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 3: down because someone called the police. I am trying to

651
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 3: get to the truth so I can go to our commissioners.

652
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 2: Yes.

653
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 3: So this is a story that happened about a week ago.

654
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 3: It happened at Northern High School in Calvert County. I

655
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 3: believe it's in specifically the town of Owens, so it's

656
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 3: maybe about looks like about an hour south of Baltimore

657
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 3: or so. This is a Republican leaning county.

658
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 4: Uh.

659
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 3: But there was a Club America meeting at this high

660
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 3: school and some woman we don't know her full name.

661
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 3: It appears her name was Nancy, but hopefully I don't

662
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 3: think it's my mom, so we'll we'll hope that one.

663
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,959
Speaker 3: But anyway, this woman, unhinged woman saw this was event

664
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 3: and said that it was they were trying to influence

665
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 3: children in a negative way. So basically announced that she

666
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 3: was calling child protective services over this event. Based on

667
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 3: local news reports, it does not appear that the authorities

668
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 3: took this terribly seriously. They were called, but police did

669
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 3: not shut down this event. I think they probably had

670
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 3: a good eye roll at this. So this is a

671
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 3: good example of how deranged people will get. But my

672
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 3: understanding is there were the authorities did not run with

673
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 3: this report from an unhinged ovaber. All right, so excellent

674
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 3: Anthony is next sports Anthony is back all right in

675
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 3: itself and shoot.

676
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 2: Welcome back.

677
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 9: Okay, Hi guys, Well, actually I want to befoget to

678
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 9: my question.

679
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 2: I'm going to piggyback off what.

680
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 9: You guys just finished. Have you paid attention to what's

681
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,800
Speaker 9: going on in Baldwinsville, New York with the high school

682
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 9: and a teacher who tried to help the students start

683
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 9: a tvsay.

684
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, yeah, we're very well aware of it, and

685
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 2: we can't really comment on it yet because legal maneuverings happening.

686
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 9: So yeah, so all right, So my question is this,

687
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 9: so we had the State of the Union. We see

688
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 9: all the Republicans on their side of the room stand

689
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 9: up for everything, clap for all the good stuff.

690
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 2: That we all like.

691
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 9: But what is what Republicans and the GOP like not

692
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 9: working together when they go back to their separate houses

693
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 9: and not trying to pass the things that we the

694
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 9: people want that we put them in charge of, like

695
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 9: you know, save Act for one, And why do GOP

696
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 9: members not just a federal level, but at every level,

697
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 9: seem to have this infighting with each other. Why can't

698
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 9: they ever unite?

699
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 3: Ahead You could answer that one, Yeah, we need to

700
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 3: do do his life's work.

701
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 4: If it was that.

702
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: I mean, I will give you an example to save Act.

703
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 2: I've been talking with a bunch of different senators about

704
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 2: this and right now, you know, they're all publicly saying

705
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 2: they want this done. The problem is is there's parliamentary

706
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: tactics that are involved different schools of thought about how

707
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,320
Speaker 2: to address the parliamentary tactics that you also have to

708
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 2: ask the question, you know, can you get to fifty

709
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 2: Right now? It looks like we're at forty nine because

710
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,399
Speaker 2: Tillis is out and Lisa Murkowski is out and Mitch

711
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:26,359
Speaker 2: McConnell's out. So fundamentally, at some sort of lower threshold level,

712
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 2: you're talking about a hardwiring of the conservative mind. We're

713
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,800
Speaker 2: just like a rowdy bunch, and we're more independent thinkers.

714
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 2: We're not as collectivist, we're not as high minded as

715
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 2: the left. But really there's you know, an interest in

716
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 2: the instance of Tom Tillis with President Trump, there's a few.

717
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,479
Speaker 2: You know, President Trump didn't like him. They it became

718
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 2: a public view. Now Tom Tillis is going to make

719
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 2: it his you know, lasting legacy to just be a

720
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 2: thorn in his side. I don't know why that is.

721
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 2: I don't know why Tom Tillis wants to go out

722
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 2: like that. You'd have to ask him. He's not gonna

723
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 2: come on this show. I've invited him, and so you

724
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 2: know there's deeper questions. Rights Rakowski. We got her because

725
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 2: of rank choice voting, which is a total sturge in Alaska.

726
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: Mitch McConnell's on his way out, but he's been a

727
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 2: pain in the butt for years. Okay, so you know

728
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 2: these are issues. Ram Paul is very unpredictable out of Kentucky.

729
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 2: By the way, Nate Morris for senator to take over

730
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 2: for Mitch McConnell. We got to get him over the

731
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 2: finish line. He's surging in the polls. So Nate Morris

732
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: support that guy. So we need better We need better representatives,

733
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 2: people that are as conservative as the voters. I mean,

734
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,839
Speaker 2: this is what Charlie spent so much of his time doing.

735
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 2: That's why Charlie endorsed Nate Morris by the way and

736
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 2: Andy Biggs in Arizona because we need we need better

737
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 2: representation and a lot of these good old boy networks

738
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 2: defend their own and NRSC has problems. It's it goes

739
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 2: on and on and on. So I mean, if anybody

740
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 2: else wants to jump in, please please do.

741
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 4: But well, speaking of Tom Taylor's that's my senator. It's sad,

742
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 4: it's a travesty. We've always known that in North Carolina.

743
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 4: Oftentimes when special interests get involved in arc money, people

744
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 4: begin to change. But I do want to show you

745
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 4: all that I know this is this is a anomaly.

746
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 4: I'm a black man in America with a I D.

747
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 4: I just wanted you all to see this.

748
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 2: You get this on the black market?

749
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 3: No, I didn't get the I still.

750
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 2: Right now?

751
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 9: Did he get it in New York? And it says

752
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 9: like no name for driver?

753
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:30,959
Speaker 2: Is this the cdo? Is this? Are you? I don't drive?

754
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 2: You know, I will tell you on the special interest

755
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 2: on the a special interest thing. So I went to

756
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 2: this Capitol Hill Club for the first time, and I

757
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,280
Speaker 2: went with Andy ogles Uh the team there They wanted

758
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 2: me to see it kind of as like a show

759
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 2: you where the sausage is made. Really, and it's this

760
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 2: club where all these Republicans. This where the Republicans hang out.

761
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 2: You got to pay all this money to be a member,

762
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 2: and then you go there and you have these like

763
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 2: kind of like whatever dinner. They're not even that great

764
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 2: and it's not even that pretty incident, but this is

765
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 2: like the exclusive place where you meet with lobbyists and

766
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 2: donors and stuff like this. And I literally I made

767
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 2: the comment. I was like, my skin is crawling, and

768
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 2: they were like, oh yeah, it's spiritually dark place. So

769
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 2: you wonder kind of some of the deals and the

770
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 2: maneuverings that are going on behind the scenes. This Capitol

771
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 2: Hill Club is probably h you know, ground zero for

772
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 2: a lot of that stuff. All right, I want to

773
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 2: get to a couple more questions, Anthony, Is that all right?

774
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:23,760
Speaker 2: You get your question?

775
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:25,879
Speaker 9: No, that's perfectly fine.

776
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 2: We've got it. One minute left, ye, Alice Elia, how

777
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 2: do I say?

778
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 3: We'll unmute yourself, Elashava and let us know if you

779
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 3: got your name right and shoot it quick and we'll

780
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 3: give you sixty seconds.

781
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,800
Speaker 10: Sorry, can you guys hear me. Yes, yeah, awesome.

782
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

783
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 3: So it's Alicia.

784
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 10: Yeah, so we're from Canada. It's my sister and I here,

785
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 10: and our question is, so what do you guys think

786
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 10: of I know you talked about made earlier in the episode,

787
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 10: but what is your opinion of our currentrime minister right now,

788
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 10: Mark Carney? And then also second fall up to that question,

789
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 10: I'm curious. We are starting a youth political activism organization

790
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,840
Speaker 10: up here, and would you have any advice for us

791
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 10: when it comes to making youth more conservative and helping

792
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 10: young Canadians love their country?

793
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 3: All right, speed round. First of all, Mark Karney is

794
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 3: a creepy globalist lizard. He's very smart. He's clearly very smart.

795
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 3: He's really very capable, and that's frustrating. He's very hostile

796
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 3: to us, he is, but he's talented. We should not

797
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 3: downplay because you know, we shouldn't underestimate him for creating

798
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 3: an organization in Canada. Fearlessness is going to be the

799
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 3: number one thing you need because your country doesn't have

800
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 3: proper freedom of speech.

801
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 2: It doesn't.

802
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 3: It really is all in the woke stuff that's been

803
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 3: receding in America. So you're going to need a huge

804
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 3: amount of.

805
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 2: Fearless social media. Social media.

806
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 3: Social media endlessly fight where the people are, and that's

807
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,399
Speaker 3: going to be TikTok, that's going to be X, that's

808
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 3: going to be Instagram. People are and engage. For more
