Speaker 1: great State of Florida. Always happy to have Representative Anna

53
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: Pauline A Luna back on the show.

54
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: Welcome back a congress woman.

55
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: So we're fourteen days into the Schumer shutdown. What do

56
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: you were just you were talking on you and I

57
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: were talking offline just a second ago.

58
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: What are some of the things that they're demanding before

59
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: you guys reopen government?

60
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 3: I am. I almost laughed when I saw this list

61
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 3: because I thought it was fake.

62
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 4: So I just want to read some of these too.

63
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: Eric.

64
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 3: We have twenty four point six million to climate resilience

65
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 3: in Honduras, thirteen point four million to civic engagement in Zimbabwe,

66
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 3: three point nine million. Oh, this is a peach right here,

67
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 3: lgbt QI, plus democracy grants in the Balkans too. Point

68
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 3: nine million two desert locust reduction in Africa. Oh yeah,

69
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: two million into organizing for feminist democratic principles in Africa.

70
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 3: They are literally not wanting to pay the military. They're

71
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 3: willing to defund the women, Infant and Children program. Thank goodness,

72
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: Trump had his pot of money from the real tariffs,

73
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 3: but they want to fund this stuff, which is totally

74
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 3: backwards and just asinine. So here we are through the shutdown.

75
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: I've never bet against Trump in a negotiation, and I

76
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 3: think he's going to win this because Rustlo is basically

77
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: going to go after their pet projects for re elections

78
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 3: in some of these blue districts.

79
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 4: But my goodness, talk about hypocrisy.

80
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are rife with hypocrisy. Schumer, Yeah, him, what

81
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: is it going to take?

82
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: And some are speculating that he wants to wait until

83
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: after this this second or the third whatever. This is

84
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: no King's protests, rioting or whatever they on October eighteenth.

85
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: Your thoughts is Schuman just trying to remain relevant?

86
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: I think there is legitimate concerns. The Democrats are kind

87
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 3: of in shambles right now. They are trying to make

88
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 3: this shut down, saying that it's because you know, Republicans

89
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 3: don't want to vote for the Jeffrey Epstein files, which

90
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: to be clear, is completely false. Right, Like we know

91
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 3: that they don't want to find the clean cr and

92
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 3: that Schumer's facing potentially a Senate primary, But ultimately it's

93
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: not even about anything that the Democrats are really trying

94
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 3: to message on, and I think a lot of their voters,

95
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 3: according to what we're seeing with the polling, a lot

96
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 3: of their Democrat voters don't actually support this. So I

97
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 3: think that this is a common occurrence where you see,

98
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 3: you know, elected officials that are supposed to represent constituents

99
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 3: in Washington, d c.

100
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 4: And then they fail to ever go home.

101
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 3: In fact, a lot of the Democrats have been up

102
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 3: here filming TikTok videos during the shutdown, trying to show

103
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 3: that they're working, but they're not, and they lose touch

104
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 3: with reality and what their voters want. So I am

105
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 3: glad that the administration is currently in power because I

106
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 3: think that russ is going to have a great opportunity

107
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 3: here rest vote to actually get rid of some of

108
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 3: this bloated government and really rein in the spending because

109
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: cong Ris does have a spending problem. But ultimately, you know,

110
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 3: when people talk about why they hate Congress and why

111
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 3: we have such low favorability ratings, it's because of stuff

112
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 3: like this.

113
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is I've been through a hundred

114
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: of these, first attempted shutdowns, threatened shutdowns, now shutdowns, and

115
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: it's always both sides trying to blame the other side.

116
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: But Trump has literally said, you know this, We're not

117
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: going to pay for illegals healthcare.

118
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: We're just not going to do We're not going to

119
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 2: do that. And they won't, they won't.

120
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 4: Or this stuff or the stuff right and Belley.

121
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: Alone, we do this all the time with these nonsense.

122
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: You know, the lobsters on the treadmill, all that that garbage,

123
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: bloated a government like ours has been so bloated for

124
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: so long. All that stuff will continue to pop up.

125
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: But to really get the deal, get the government back

126
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: open and pay folks that your military etcenterance, whatever, there's

127
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: got to be some sort of give. The demos can

128
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: they cannot continue to blame Trump. I mean, you own

129
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: the White House, they have the house to send it.

130
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 2: You can turn the narrative at them. It's just it's it's.

131
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: Amazing how ugly the political machine is from this standpoint.

132
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: You guys are in the midst of it. Can I

133
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: just talk very quickly Middy's piece? Does it hold?

134
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 4: I'm helpful.

135
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 3: I think that a lot of it depends on who

136
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 3: Trump names as his successor and the team that stays

137
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 3: within the White House after Trump's time in office, remember

138
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 3: President Trump, Thank goodness we have them.

139
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 4: For you know, three more years.

140
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 3: But really what ends up happening is really by I

141
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 3: think the third year, really the second year, and then

142
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 3: the third year of an administration, people start leaving and

143
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 3: they start really shifting into reelection mode and or campaign

144
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 3: efforts for the White House.

145
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 2: And so well, I'm sorry, Gata, you can finished.

146
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, so, you end up seeing

147
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 3: a lot of the staff leave, and I think that

148
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 3: there needs to be.

149
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 4: Those people.

150
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: I think that they need to stay because ultimately, this

151
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: is a unique opportunity that we have in history to

152
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: ensure that not just the United States, instead of being

153
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 3: an aggressor, is seen as the peacemaker. And I think

154
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 3: President Trump has made his mandate of what he expects,

155
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 3: especially from the party.

156
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 4: To back him on.

157
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 3: And so I'm actually really glad that you brought that up,

158
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 3: because you know, specifically on him wanting peace with Russia

159
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 3: and Ukraine.

160
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 4: Well, that's not going to happen if.

161
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,679
Speaker 3: You keep having members of Congress going over to Ukraine

162
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 3: and advocating for war with NATO. Right, And so I

163
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 3: actually I did it on Foreign Affairs as part of

164
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 3: my other hat. As you know, Eric, I'm on Oversights.

165
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 3: I'm also on the Foreign Affairs Committee, and I actually

166
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 3: reached out and I have a meeting next week actually

167
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 3: with the Special Envoy to the President of Russia to

168
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: discuss some of those peace.

169
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 4: And potentially trade talks.

170
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: And then also too, for the first time since the nineties,

171
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: Congress will be doing a Parliament to Parliament meeting or

172
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 3: Congress to the Duna meeting where.

173
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 4: We will be actually meeting.

174
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 3: It's going to be bipartisan with a group of members

175
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 3: from the Russian delegation of their version of Parliament. And

176
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 3: so you know that should should have happened. We know

177
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 3: that there's been fractured foreign policy because of Russia Gate,

178
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: and we know now that that was a manufactured lie.

179
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 3: So the Democrats, specific Democrats, used it for political gain

180
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: and actuality.

181
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 4: There was no Cold War happening.

182
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: So very quick answer, quick answers.

183
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: I watched the whole pomp and ceremony yesterday right in Israel.

184
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: Then in a yeah, Trump was very very supportive, elevated

185
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: Marco Rubio to a level I haven't really seen him

186
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: elevated prior to this. Now, you're a very maga person.

187
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: We come from way long time ago, Maga roots. Yeah,

188
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: back when Marco Rubio was and.

189
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: So maga right.

190
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: And so I'm going, is this some sort of Trump

191
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: looking at maybe possibly Marco Rubio to carry the torch

192
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: further and maybe not jd vance.

193
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 2: What were your thoughts on that?

194
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't like to speculate on what the

195
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 3: Trump on, what the Trump on, what President Trump thinks.

196
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 3: But what I can tell you is I think, you know,

197
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 3: especially when you are in DC. Remember Marco came from

198
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 3: the Tea Party era, and I think that what Marco

199
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 3: has been really good at is he's been able to

200
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 3: understand how Washington works and at the same time ensuring

201
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 3: that he was able to get into a position where

202
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 3: he could fully be what I believe is the conservative

203
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 3: that he's always felt.

204
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 4: That he is.

205
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 3: And if you look at him as compared to some

206
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 3: of the other Secretary of States that we've had. He

207
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: is doing an incredible job. I think such a good

208
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 3: job that President Trump is correct, that he's going to

209
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 3: go down as truly one of the greatest Secretary of

210
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 3: States that we've ever had in US history. And you

211
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 3: can look at his peace negotiations and what he's been

212
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 3: able to provide support.

213
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 4: On the flip side, you know, JD.

214
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 3: Vance has been backing the president through all that it

215
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 3: was well and both JD. Vance and Marco Rubio were

216
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 3: actually very supportive of President Trump's position on Iran. There

217
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 3: was a lot of people freaking out about it. Obviously,

218
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 3: both of those individuals do not want more war, and

219
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 3: you can tell by their actions and how they've backed.

220
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 4: The President in these peace negotiations.

221
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 3: And so I can tell you that there's a lot

222
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 3: of people in Congress and Senate that like to, you know,

223
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 3: talk and say that they know what's going on. But

224
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 3: the fact is is that especially on this foreign policy

225
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 3: and a lot of these decisions, the only people that

226
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 3: know are the only ones the ones in the situation room.

227
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 4: And this would be J. D. Manson, Marca Rubia.

228
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 2: So yeah, the efforts interesting dynamics setting up there.

229
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: I will tell you I got about a minute or so,

230
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: Anna paulinaone, and we go way back. What I'm referencing

231
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: is Charlie Kirk received the Medal of Freedom, highest honor

232
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 1: you can give a civilian by President Trump. And you,

233
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: my dear, we met in twenty eighteen when you were

234
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: the head of the Hispanic outreach for TPUSA, So your

235
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: words are long with TPUSA as well. And quick thought

236
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: on Charlie receiving the Medal of Freedom.

237
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 4: It's a huge honor.

238
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 3: And what I can tell you is that I really

239
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 3: wish it was under different circumstances because, as you know,

240
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 3: Charlie's birthday is on the day that he's receiving the honor.

241
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 3: But you know, for me specifically, I think that you know,

242
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 3: as his friend, not just as an elected official, but

243
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 3: seeing his life accomplishments, even in those thirty plus years,

244
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 3: he was able to accomplish sometimes more than sometimes people

245
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: do in their entire life. And so I will never

246
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 3: forget where I came from. I always remember my roots.

247
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 3: And I'm in Congress because of Charlie.

248
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 4: And we're going to continue, like I say, and you're

249
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 4: doing a great job.

250
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 2: Keep doing what you're doing.

251
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: And Polina as a citizen of the Free Estate in

289
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,280

Speaker 1: us just how fragile our freedoms are. We can't afford

297
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,920

298
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,160

318
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: His wife, Erica Kirk, will be receiving the award, but

319
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: joining me now CEO and editor in chief of just

320
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: the News, no Noise, mister John Solomon, John, good to

321
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: have you with with us on this very very important day,

322
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: especially for Charlie for turning special today for young people

323
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: and for the real America's Voice family.

324
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 2: John.

325
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 5: Go ahead, Yeah, listen. I can't think of a better

326
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 5: name of a medal to give Charlie. Forget the fact

327
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 5: that it's the highest civilian honor. But what Charlie lived

328
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 5: for was to ensure freedom for another generation. He inspired

329
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 5: millions to fight for that freedom, and he understood that

330
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 5: there was a force creeping among this nation that was

331
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 5: trying to eradicate the belief that we were endowed with

332
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 5: this inaliable right to freedom, beginning with the freedom to

333
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 5: speak and debate and talk and practice our faith. And

334
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 5: he fought so feverishly for it. And I can't think

335
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 5: of a greater honor that he would have been more

336
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 5: proud of, and I certainly am proud of to see

337
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 5: him received today, even though it's in his passing.

338
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, do want to do this?

339
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: I listen, I hate doing it, but you know it was,

340
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: you know, a month ago, and yeah, well let's just

341
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: take a look.

342
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 2: Go ahead, sure, Doug, Yeah, we yeah, you got it.

343
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to look at our our fearless leader, Rob Sigg,

344
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: who is uh pacing back and forth, is to give

345
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: us us tell us he's passed.

346
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: Am I hearing this control room?

347
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 6: It's right, it's it's it's Solomon.

348
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: Put it up. It's not just the news they're reporting.

349
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: John Solomon's reporting on just the news that he's passed.

350
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: Yes, this is what I'm hearing.

351
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 1: Yes, I get here, yes, yes, yes, wow, right here,

352
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: right here, rab this moment.

353
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: What happened was we came up on the show. Charlie

354
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: had been shot.

355
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 4: There.

356
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: There's word that he was in intensive care but had

357
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: a heartbeat to that moment right there.

358
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 2: But give me one more this. Take a look real quick.

359
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: I know I hate to do this back to back,

360
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: but just watch the next sound by Roman. You're reporting

361
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: Charlie's past. Tell us what you know, John.

362
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, talk to multiple officials in the United States government

363
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 5: and two personal friends.

364
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 6: But he passed a short while ago.

365
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 7: Wasn't able to survive the blood loss from the wound

366
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 7: to his neck. There'll be some announcements soon, is what

367
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 7: I'm told, and then we'll I'll have to sort through

368
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 7: what happened today. Who's responsible and try to understand how

369
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 7: something so senseless could occur. We need to rally around

370
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 7: his family and his friends, who are going to be devastated.

371
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 7: But what he started is our generation's obligation to finish,

372
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 7: to protect free speech and free expression and free religion,

373
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 7: and to speak out until the moment we crush it.

374
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 5: The intolerance that has led to violence and unthinkable American acts.

375
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 5: This is the acts that we've seen in the last

376
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 5: decade of censoring people, canceling people, bankrupting people, killing people

377
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 5: because of their political views is not American and there's

378
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 5: no space for it. And if the greatest honor we

379
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 5: can give Charlie is to make sure we finish what

380
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 5: he started by crushing that mindset, it'll be the best

381
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 5: honor we can give him.

382
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 6: Tonight. It is very difficult moment for his family.

383
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: And the reason why I will play those John is

384
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: because while we're reporting live, we didn't know what sammu try.

385
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 1: I saw you, I saw your face change, I saw

386
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: you look down, and we were all emotional, but you

387
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 1: went away for a minute. You confirmed it. I guess

388
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: tell us how that went down.

389
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, I had two sources.

390
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,959
Speaker 5: I wanted to get a third and a fourth quickly,

391
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 5: and so I'm texting back and forth and I got

392
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 5: the sort of level of sourcing that I knew I

393
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 5: was one hundred percent right. And so then it came

394
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 5: back right on air. We pulled the trigger on on

395
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 5: the wire here just the news, and then we came

396
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 5: right back on air to describe it to everyone.

397
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 6: And it's hard.

398
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 5: It's hard to keep your passions out when you're just

399
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 5: trying to do the reporting of the news at that moment,

400
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 5: but you do it because the country deserves the truth.

401
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 5: They need to know what happened, and they need to

402
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 5: know it's true. And we did that, and it was

403
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 5: an honor to be on air with you when that happened,

404
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 5: and to be on with all of our great RAV colleagues, Rob,

405
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 5: Sig and Gina and everyone that was on the block

406
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 5: at that moment, because I think Charlie viewed us all

407
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 5: as friends and colleagues. I was with him just two

408
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 5: weeks before he passed. I've said this and I had

409
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 5: a little bit. I have a little bit guilt now

410
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,919
Speaker 5: because he wanted me to come out at the end

411
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 5: of August, just before Labor Day to Colorado was like

412
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 5: a thirteen hour flight on a the way the hot

413
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 5: went on a Saturday. I was kind of grumpy going

414
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 5: out there, like I don't really want to do this,

415
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 5: but Charlie's my brother going to do it. And I

416
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 5: got there and I realized how special moment was, not

417
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 5: knowing what would happen to Charlie, but we just started

418
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 5: talking and his passion, his intellect, his view of what

419
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 5: was going on in the world was so thirty thousand

420
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 5: foot It was so amazing, and I an event that

421
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 5: I went in kind of dreading, like I don't want

422
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 5: to go on a long trip and waste the whole weekend.

423
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 5: I left energized, and I think that was what Charlie

424
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 5: always did. He always brought a joyful warrior out in you,

425
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 5: and he could see what's going on. And so we're

426
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 5: on stage, we're talking and I'm talking about the war

427
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,439
Speaker 5: on truth and why this was an effort. You know,

428
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 5: we're in a fight to save our country, and he

429
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 5: corrects me on stage in a classic way, and he

430
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 5: was so right. He said, John, We're not just in

431
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 5: a fight to save our country. We're in a fight

432
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 5: to save Western civilization. And his ability to see that

433
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 5: the moment that we were in was as relevant to

434
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 5: America as it was to Great Britain or Israel or

435
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 5: Brazil or any other country that's going through the hatred

436
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 5: and the intolerance that we now see in the world.

437
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 5: Charlie understood that this wasn't just about saving America. It

438
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 5: was about saving the mores that made Western civilization great,

439
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 5: starting with freedom. And I walked away that week and

440
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 5: I literally had a kick in my step when I

441
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 5: flew out Sunday morning to come back home because Charlie

442
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 5: invigorated me. And I think that ability to see what

443
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 5: was at stake, what the solution was, and to never

444
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 5: stop working to get to that solution. I'll never forget

445
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 5: that weekend with him, and I'm grateful for it, although

446
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 5: I admit I kind of groused going in, but I

447
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 5: left having been rewarded by him.

448
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 2: You know, I spent a lot of time Fox.

449
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: I literally probably the only human being to ever fill

450
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 1: in for Sean Handity and Bill O'Reilly.

451
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 2: On the same evening. Wow, that's impressive that moment when

452
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 2: we were together there. John was more emotional, more.

453
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: Material to me my career than than any And in

454
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: the credit to you for really kind of reporting that

455
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: news and holding it together when we're all.

456
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 2: Kind of like falling up.

457
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 6: Thank you.

458
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: Do we have Brian Glenn? I think we have Brian

459
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: Glenn at the Rose Garden. If we have him? Do

460
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: we have him? Brian?

461
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: You jump in here set the scene for us, my friend.

462
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, hey, Eric, glad to be here in the

463
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 8: Rose Garden. And I was just mensioning to a colleague

464
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 8: next to mine, this is the first time I physically

465
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 8: have stood in the Rose Garden since it's been paved,

466
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 8: and I wish we had a good SiGe matter of facts, Mason,

467
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 8: do a fair real quickly panned down and let's show

468
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 8: the ground as we stand here. Now, this is like

469
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,239
Speaker 8: I said, this is the first event that I've been

470
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 8: out here with the being remodeled. But as you can see,

471
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 8: they replace the grass with this good looking surface here,

472
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 8: and even with the drains, we looked at what they've done.

473
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 8: Let's look down here for a second. They have actually

474
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 8: put the drains in the shape of an American flag,

475
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 8: the stars and stripes, just a beautiful accent here. But

476
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 8: what a very special day to be here. Obviously, as

477
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 8: we kind of remember where we were when we got

478
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 8: the news of Charlie Kirk being assassinated. I was on

479
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 8: the plane with Attorney General Pam Bondi coming back from

480
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 8: a raid that we did at a vape plant in Chicago,

481
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 8: cracking down on Chinese vape products being here in the US.

482
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 8: So we got the news on the plane on the

483
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 8: way back, and all of.

484
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 9: Us was speechless.

485
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 8: She was speechless, and of course we all had to

486
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 8: deal with the fallout of that for the rest of

487
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 8: the day, and we still carry it to a great extent.

488
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 2: Even as we speak. But today it is.

489
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 8: About honoring him, honoring his birthday, and giving him pretty

490
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 8: much the highest award that you can get from a president,

491
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 8: and he rightfully deserves it.

492
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Brian, any word on Erica kirk'son received the

493
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: medal in Charlie's absence.

494
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 2: Any word on Erica, and how's she doing?

495
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,199
Speaker 6: You know, I have not seen her.

496
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 8: I know there was some video earlier circulating that she

497
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 8: was arrived just behind us on the South Line, but

498
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 8: I have not personally seen her here yet, but I

499
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 8: would imagine she will deliver what we could expect to

500
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 8: be a very emotional, impactful speech, very much like what

501
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 8: we heard at the at the ceremony there in Phoenix

502
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 8: just weeks ago.

503
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 2: Okay, guys, do me a favorite.

504
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: If you guys can both hold, We're going to take

505
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: a quick break and come back in two and a half.

506
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 1: Love to keep you guys on screen if we can

507
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 1: we write back folks. All right there it is the

508
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: Rose Garden. They're waiting on the President to come out

509
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: and award the ostimously the Medal of Freedom to Charlie Kirk,

510
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 1: actually to Erica Kirk.

511
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 2: And Charlie's absence. And I noticed that, you know, with

512
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 2: this new floor in the.

513
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: Rose Garden, you get probably four or five times more

514
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 1: people in there.

515
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 2: Let's go to John some John, you're still with us.

516
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: I hope you know Willa left finally like relent and

517
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: say Charlie Kirk was everything that we know he was.

518
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: Or are they going to continue to look for reasons

519
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: why again this is their words, reasons why Charlie was

520
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 1: assassinating his own words.

521
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know at the left one stop, because they

522
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 5: don't have anything to offer positive right now to America.

523
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 6: They don't have any.

524
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:30,239
Speaker 5: Policies that resonate powerfully with the majority of Americans, and

525
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 5: so they spend their time denigrating those who found connections

526
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 5: with America in Middle America. And I think Charlie, you know,

527
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 5: I think of something that Charlie said a couple of

528
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 5: times to me, and he said it publicly many times,

529
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 5: and that was that freedom doesn't mean anything unless you

530
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 5: could back it up with personal responsibility, meaning you had

531
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 5: to personally use that freedom for good. You had to

532
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 5: make sure in this country that you did good with it.

533
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 5: And I think the left has used their freedom in

534
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 5: the last few years to terrorize us, to tell us mistruths,

535
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 5: to try to erode the truth that this country has

536
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 5: built on. You saw Senator Tim Kaine do that the

537
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 5: other day, saying no, no, you don't get your rights

538
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 5: from God, you get them from government, which is something

539
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 5: I think would make our founding fathers roll over in

540
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 5: their grave. He realized that free speech came with also

541
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 5: the responsibility to use it responsibly. And I think that

542
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 5: the left right now is the antithesis of all that

543
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 5: Charlie stood for what he believed in, And the more

544
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 5: they detegrate him, believe it or not, the more they're

545
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 5: building him up. Everything that they do to chop them

546
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 5: down is actually making his breach and his impact larger

547
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 5: in America. They're literally self defeating their purpose and I

548
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 5: take joy and watching them fail at what they're doing.

549
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, we just saw Susie Wiles take her seat in

550
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 1: the front row.

551
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, screen left, So that would indicate Trump will be

552
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: coming out in just fail in a second.

553
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I tell you what, the most part warming things

554
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: about this And there's so many bad things, losing Charlie,

555
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: but one of the positive things is the number and

556
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: that keeps rising. Somewhere one hundred and eighty thousand requests

557
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: for chapters around around the world.

558
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 2: Really, that is for TPUSA. This is TPUSA. Is there

559
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 2: going to be a bigger political force in America maybe

560
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 2: the world?

561
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 5: John, I think it's going to be substantial for a

562
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 5: long time to come.

563
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 6: It's in good hands.

564
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 1: Well, let me let me, let me refretch it. Let

565
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: me let me refrich it, John John Solomon, John Solomon,

566
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 1: who knows just about everyone. There is no what's going

567
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: to be more powerful, What's going to be more influential

568
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: TPUSA or the rnc.

569
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 6: OH.

570
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 5: I think it's already been answered. TPUSA was far more

571
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 5: important to Trump's win in twenty twenty four and will

572
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 5: continue to be because they're prospecting the next generation of voters,

573
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 5: and the RNC is often, you know, in the second

574
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 5: and third generation of voters deeper into their political lives.

575
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 5: There's nothing more important thats TPSA has been doing to

576
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 5: create connectivity between the values of the conservative movement and

577
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,199
Speaker 5: the interest of young people. Making it cool to be

578
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 5: conservative again, making it okay to believe in freedom and

579
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 5: God and your family and being a responsible man or

580
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 5: responsible woman. They made it culturally fashionable again after two

581
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 5: decades of the left trying to demean that viewpoint. And

582
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,959
Speaker 5: that is a very powerful, very powerful force because culture

583
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 5: is always upstream from politics. Culture sets the politics of

584
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 5: a country. Charlie understood that and he went to fix

585
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,439
Speaker 5: the culture so that politics could be fixed. And I

586
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 5: think that legacy will live on in TPUSA for a

587
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 5: very long time.

588
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 6: We'll be retired, it'll still be very powerful in America.

589
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, he'll be very proud of this day where you here,

590
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk will be proud to day because yesterday President

591
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 1: Trump brought at least the temporary peace to the mid

592
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: least people said that that wasn't going to happen in true. Yeah,

593
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 1: I am so ticked off at the left and actually

594
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: some people on the right as well, who are creating

595
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: for the divisiveness under Charlie, whether he was pro Israel

596
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 1: at the end or not, and they're pushing this narrative

597
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: of oh, he was getting off the Israel bandwagon when

598
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: you would know behar and I would John. I mean,

599
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: I'm on the honorary board of TPUSAY. But I have

600
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 1: this conversation with Charlie the way you may have had.

601
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: Where was he with Israel and what would he say

602
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 1: to this piece agreement.

603
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 5: I think he understood that biblically, the Israelis and the

604
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 5: Jews are chosen people, and that he wanted to honor that.

605
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 5: He also wanted to make sure that the use of

606
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 5: force at Israel used didn't go beyond what was necessary

607
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 5: to win the battle between good and evil. And I

608
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 5: think he was looking to find where that delimiter was.

609
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 5: I remember on the night that Trump bombed Iran, he

610
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 5: was very concerned that this was going to be a war,

611
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 5: and I came out, Nope, this is a limited engagement,

612
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 5: and within a day Charlie felt very comfortable with what

613
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 5: the president did. It comes from a generation of conservative

614
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 5: thinkers that doesn't think we have to bomb everything to win,

615
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 5: and he has a president in Donald Trump that believes

616
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 5: that most of what we achieved in the Middle East

617
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,479
Speaker 5: piece occurred without bloodshed and without us having to use

618
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 5: military force.

619
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 6: Now we use some.

620
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 5: We had to take the nuclear weapons off the table.

621
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 5: We had a newter some of Iron's proxy, so we

622
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 5: could get to a point where a conversation could occurb.

623
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 5: But we didn't put boots on the ground. We didn't

624
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 5: create a long war like Afghanistan and Iraq was. And

625
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 5: I think Charlie was beginning to appreciate that Trump could

626
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 5: use power surgically military power, but not get us into

627
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 5: a war, and I think that impressed him. I think

628
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 5: on Israel he was just fine, and I don't think

629
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 5: he was going to abandon Israel. But also Charlie was

630
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 5: never to give anyone a free pass. He would correct

631
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 5: me if he saw something that he thought, and he

632
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 5: did on stage that day, and I loved it. I

633
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 5: love the fact that he saw it as something bigger

634
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 5: than I was talking about. I think that's what made

635
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 5: Charlie so special.

636
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just trying to catch people up.

637
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 2: I believe I just read unconfirmed that there was.

638
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: Trump the Administration of the military took out innother one

639
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: of those narco terrorists boats. They did today from Venzuela,

640
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: just just just briefly a little earlier.

641
00:29:58,400 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have confirmation of that.

642
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 6: We do.

643
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 5: There was confirmed by the Department of War a little

644
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 5: while ago. President Trump also confirmed it. I think it's

645
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 5: a six fifth or sixth boat now that's been taken out. Hey, listen,

646
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 5: these narco terrorists have been declared terrorists and they're trying

647
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 5: to ship poison into our country that will kill our

648
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 5: young adults. That's what they've been doing for the last

649
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 5: ten years. And President Trump has decided that on a

650
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 5: surgical basis, he'll blow these boats up before the poison gets.

651
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 6: To our shore.

652
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 5: And you look at the polling, Americans by a majority

653
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 5: support what the president's doing, so he is.

654
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 6: Locks that with the it's not a big long war.

655
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 5: We're not putting boots on the ground in Venezuela or

656
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 5: in the cartels permanently. But using that surgical use of

657
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 5: power I think is very popular right now because people

658
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 5: there's hardly a person I've met in America that doesn't

659
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 5: know someone who didn't die from the scourge of the

660
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 5: opioid and drug crisis that these cartels have imposed on America,

661
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 5: often with China's assistance. So I think what the president's

662
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 5: doing today confirming he did do it today again is

663
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 5: very popular. It hits right where Americans want their president

664
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 5: to be.

665
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: Right now, what do you think, John, You're so tapped

666
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: in to the administration and what they're what they're thinking,

667
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: because you have great sources. What do you think is

668
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: the the I'm gonna call it a game, play a

669
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: little poker game with Putin's the one ski. We're gonna

670
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna give you tomahawks. We're maybe gonna let you

671
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: use them the way you want to use them. And

672
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: by the way, we're gonna share some intel on on

673
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: on Putin's energy infrastructured Russia.

674
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 2: Seems seems a little bit of a dangerous game to play.

675
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: But what are your thoughts on this?

676
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 5: You know, when you go to the art of the deal,

677
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 5: President Trump always realized it's two key components. Know what

678
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 5: your enemy wants and know what he fears most. And

679
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 5: I think Donald Trump knows what Putin wants. Pewton wants

680
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 5: to be welcomed back into the weld order is something

681
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 5: other than a pria, which right now he's not going

682
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,719
Speaker 5: to get uh. And what does he fear. He fears

683
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 5: being humiliated and dressed down. And the President dangles something

684
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 5: that could really humiliate Putin. If he hit the mother

685
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 5: of all sanctions and froze the Central Bank of Russia,

686
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 5: which by the way, nothing moose through Russia except through

687
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 5: the central Bank, and he froze all of the oligarch's

688
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 5: moneys that really is Putin's money, and the oligarchs are

689
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 5: just hiding it. He would humiliate Pewtin on the world stage.

690
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 5: Putin would have breadlines in Russia in a few days.

691
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 5: And I think the President vacillates between those two points.

692
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 5: The missiles are one thing that says Aelenski pay there

693
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 5: is a little bit of us targeting going in right

694
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 5: now in some of those missiles. But at the end

695
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 5: of the day, he knows what Putin faares most, which

696
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 5: is being humiliated on the world stage and not having

697
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 5: a chance to return to it. And I think he's

698
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 5: left both doors open and he's let Putin twist in this.

699
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 5: And I think in the last few days Putin didn't

700
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 5: weigh in on the Israel hamast deal. He was very quiet,

701
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 5: as was Iran. That is a sign that Iran in Russia,

702
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 5: which often engage in important information warfare, on events like this,

703
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 5: they're quiet because they're really valuating their options. I think

704
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 5: if I'm Vladimir Putin, that's good. I think I think

705
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 5: Vladimir Putin wants to make a deal. He isn't there yet,

706
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:07,959
Speaker 5: but he'll get there.

707
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 2: John john We're gonna try and squeeze the quick break.

708
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: But folks, if you look to left the screen of

709
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,800

711
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,040

714
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: out of the break.

715
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 2: So we'll be right back, folks. All right, let's take

716
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 2: a look at a shot. Take it.

717
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: Take it is this Trump? There is ladies and gentlemen

718
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: the iss. Yeah, that's Trump. Right, It's hard for me

719
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 1: see it's a small screen. Yeah, there's lady Youngman, the

720
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 1: President of the United States, awarding Charlie Kirk possibly Medal

00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: of Freedom.

722
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 10: Thank you very much, everybody. Blazers is such an honor.

723
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 10: This is the Please be seated. This is the first

724
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 10: time we've been at the new and improved Rose Garden

725
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,760
Speaker 10: and people are loving it. They're loving it like they've

726
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 10: not loved a lot of things. We have the Presidential

727
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 10: Walk of Fame, which you just saw and just opened,

728
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 10: and we wanted to get it open for this occasion.

729
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 10: We were hoping we were able to get outside and

730
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 10: the weather allowed us to.

731
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,399
Speaker 9: It's supposed to be terrible rainy day.

732
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 10: I was telling Eric and God was watching, and he

733
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 10: didn't want that for Charlie. He just didn't want that.

734
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 10: So it's really beautiful. Couldn't be more beautiful. Today we're

735
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 10: here to honor and remember a fearless warrior for liberty,

736
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 10: beloved leader who galvanized the next generation like nobody I've

737
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 10: ever seen before, and an American patriot of the deepest conviction,

738
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 10: the fine his quality, in the highest caliber, the late

739
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 10: great Charlie Kirk. Five weeks ago, our nation was robbed

740
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 10: of this extraordinary champion. He was a champion in every way.

741
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 10: I got to know him so well. He didn't like

742
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 10: losing and he was able to fight people that were enemies,

743
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 10: and he didn't necessarily love those enemies so much. And

744
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 10: I heard he loved his enemies, and I said, wait

745
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 10: a minute, is that the same Charlie that I know?

746
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 9: I'm not sure, but I didn't want to get into it.

747
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 10: But it was a horrible, heinous, demonic act of murder.

748
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 10: He was assassinated in the prime of his life for

749
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:54,959
Speaker 10: boldly speaking the truth, for living his faith and relentlessly

750
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 10: fighting for a better and stronger America.

751
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 9: Loved this country.

752
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 10: And that's why this afternoon, it's my privilege to posthumously

753
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 10: award Charles James Kirk our nation's highest civilian honor, the

754
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 10: Presidential Medal of Freedom.

755
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 9: Thank you. As you know, only hours ago, I.

756
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 10: Returned from a very historic trip to secure peace in

757
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 10: the Middle East. People said that couldn't be done. Charlie

758
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 10: felt it could be done. Charlie felt it could be done.

759
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 10: Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. But I

760
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 10: raced back halfway around at the Globe. I was gonna

761
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 10: call Eric and say, Erica, could you maybe move it

762
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,919
Speaker 10: to Friday? And I didn't have the courage to call.

763
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 10: But you know why I didn't call because I heard

764
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 10: today is Charlie's birthday, and I said, you know, now

765
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 10: that was a definite, and I said, we're gonna have

766
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,919
Speaker 10: to forget about some of those very big, very rich

767
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 10: countries that expected me to be there.

768
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 9: And I can tell you based on the length.

769
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 10: Of that flight, I wouldn't want to go back tomorrow,

770
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 10: but I would not have missed this moment for anything

771
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 10: in the world. Nothing, And it's a very important time

772
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 10: for our country. And our country is doing so well,

773
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 10: it's never done better. We are a country with almost

774
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 10: now eighteen trillion dollars of investment coming in. Nobody's ever

775
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 10: seen anything like that. Previous administration at less than a

776
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 10: trillion for four years, we have more than eighteen. It

777
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 10: will be much more than twenty by the time the year,

778
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 10: more than twenty trillion dollars. There's never been a country

779
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 10: in the world that had anything like that. What's happened

780
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,439
Speaker 10: to our country is incredible in a short period of time.

781
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 10: Charlie was a big person for sir, can we close

782
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 10: up those borders please a little bit?

783
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 9: You know they're really leaking badly, I said, Charlie, I

784
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 9: haven't gotten there yet, but you know it came out.

785
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 9: Last four months.

786
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 10: Literally nobody was allowed into our country, and the only

787
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 10: people that were allowed in were people that came in legally.

788
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 10: The borders are absolutely stone cold closed, and they reported

789
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 10: zero zero, zero and zero, so that's pretty good. But

790
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 10: he was a big believer. He wanted people in the

791
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 10: country more than I did. Frankly, he wanted them to

792
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 10: come in legally, and he got his wish. October fourteenth

793
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 10: is Charlie's birthday, and he should have been turning thirty

794
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 10: two years old. I never when I first met him,

795
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 10: he was like twenty two, and I said, boy, he's

796
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 10: awfully young. But I thought he was older than that.

797
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 10: You know, he looked a little bit older than his age.

798
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 10: That's okay. You know, that's not good when you're old,

799
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 10: but when you're young, it's great. He had the best

800
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 10: of all things, but he was special. But instead, Charlie

801
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 10: is attaining a far more important milestone. We're entering his

802
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 10: name forever into the eternal roster of true American heroes.

803
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 10: He's a true American hero, an amazing person, way way

804
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 10: beyond his years, and I'm honored to be joined by

805
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 10: a woman who has endured unspeakable hardship with unbelievable strength.

806
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 10: And that's Charlie's widow, Erica. And I just want to

807
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 10: thank you, Erica. He loved you so much.

808
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 9: I was with him. Please, thank you, darling, thank you.

809
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 10: I was with him before I met Erica, and he

810
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 10: told me he was gonna get married. He said, you

811
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 10: won't believe how beautiful she is. I said, well, then,

812
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 10: now that I meet, he's right. But then he also said,

813
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 10: and you know what, she's like, the smartest person I know.

814
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:06,359
Speaker 9: See, they do go.

815
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 10: Together on occasion, not often, not often, but on occasion

816
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 10: they go together. But he was in love with you.

817
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 10: He was deeply in love with you. It's great, Erica.

818
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 10: Your love and courage have been an inspiration to all

819
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 10: of us. And we will always be here for you,

820
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 10: and we're always going to be here for your gorgeous,

821
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 10: beautiful children. And we'll never forget what your family has

822
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:38,760
Speaker 10: sacrificed for our country. Man loved our country. When things

823
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 10: were going badly for our country, he was so as

824
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 10: you know, angry. He would get angry because he said,

825
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:46,479
Speaker 10: it doesn't have to be that way.

826
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 9: We're also pleased to.

827
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 10: Be joined by an incredible group of Charlie's friends, very

828
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 10: powerful friends actually, and some not so powerful. And there

829
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 10: were actually better people. Okay, I know, well the less powerful.

830
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 10: I have to tell you that all of you power

831
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 10: guys down here, the best ones in the group are

832
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 10: the ones that are less successful.

833
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 9: But that happens to you.

834
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 2: Now.

835
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 10: They're all great and they're here. And let's start with

836
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:17,399
Speaker 10: Erica's father. Where is Erica's father? Where are you? Where

837
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:17,919
Speaker 10: are you dead?

838
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 9: Oh? Look at him? Well I want to get a

839
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 9: hat like that too. I like that. How are you

00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 10: Thanks as well to Vice President jd Vance, who's been fantastic.

842
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:36,839
Speaker 9: Jd thank you very much, great doing a great job.

Speaker 10: great woman.

847
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 9: President of Argentina. He wanted to be here.

848
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 10: That's Argentina's a serious flight, right and he's become a

849
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 10: superstar and he's doing amazing things. It's he's a maga person,

850
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 10: but it's make Argentina great again. That's what he does, right,

851
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 10: And I want you to stand please have here.

852
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 9: Hove m Relay doing a great job. Thank you very much.

853
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 10: Many members of my cabinet here, just about all of

854
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,359
Speaker 10: them here. I won't go into every single one of them,

855
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 10: but I'll announce a few of the people that have

856
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 10: really turned this country around and helped me. Incredible people.

857
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 10: Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, Where is Mike.

858
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 9: What a job you're doing, Mike, what a job you're doing.

859
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 9: And I watched you this.

860
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 10: Morning and you're in there trying to say, look, just

861
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,720
Speaker 10: let the country open. Everything will be fine. We're dealing

862
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 10: with some radical left lunatics. And I would just wish

863
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 10: Charlie was here to fight us. I think the fight

864
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 10: would have been over already. He would have had a

865
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 10: march on the Capitol by people whose average age is

866
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 10: about twenty one, because there's nobody that had that relationship

867
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,360
Speaker 10: with young people, right Mike, So thank you Mike for

868
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 10: being here.

869
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 9: House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, Steve, thank you very much. Brave,

870
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 9: a brave guy and a friend. House Majority Whip.

871
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:34,280
Speaker 10: Another terrific man, Tom Emmer, Thank you, Tom. Senate Majority

872
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 10: Whip John Barrasso, John, thank you very much. Yeah, all

873
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:42,480
Speaker 10: these senators I'm going to get in trouble. I'm not

874
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 10: going to read all their names. I'll be reading all day.

875
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 10: We'll be talking about Charlie in about forty five minutes

876
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 10: from now. We can't do that's so all of the senators,

877
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 10: there's so many of you.

878
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 9: Thank you very much.

879
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 10: I do want to thank Senators Thune for doing a

880
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 10: terrific job. He's really been leading properly. Do you agree, Mike.

881
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 10: The team, the two of these guys have been fantastic.

882
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 10: So to Senator to Thune, I want to thank you

883
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 10: very much. Incredible job. Watched him this morning and he

884
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 10: was out there pounding him this morning on television two.

885
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 10: And John Barrasso, thank you for the work you've done

886
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 10: and congratulations and your success.

887
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 9: But I want to thank you all in all of

888
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 9: the congress people that are here.

889
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 10: And I see we have our Attorney general here, so

890
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 10: and you are doing a fantastic job. Thank you very much. Pam,

891
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 10: thank you, thank you very much. We have everybody. Wow,

892
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 10: that's incredible. Okay, I'm not going to do anymore, going

893
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 10: to be here too long, but I just want to

894
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,720
Speaker 10: thank you have given him such support, but he always

895
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 10: gave you such support.

896
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 9: That's why you're here, and very unusual.

897
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 10: Charles James Kirk was a visionary and one of the

898
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 10: greatest figures of his generation. He was truly an amazing

899
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 10: figure and growing leaps and valves. He knew that the

900
00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,719
Speaker 10: fight to preserve our heritage is waged not only on

901
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,879
Speaker 10: the battlefield and in the halls of power, of which

902
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:07,360
Speaker 10: we have tremendous power here, including.

903
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 9: The head of a place called war we called now war.

904
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 10: We had defense, we had our secretary of defense, now

905
00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 10: have his Secretary of War.

906
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 9: And somehow I think it's more emblematic, and hopefully we'll

907
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 9: never have to use war.

908
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 10: But the fact that we're ready is very good. Peace

909
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 10: through strength is very important. But also in the hearts

910
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 10: of our nation's youth. That's where Charlie Road's strongest at

911
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 10: age eighteen. That inside inspired Charlie to found the organization

912
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 10: that ultimately touched the lives of millions and millions of

913
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 10: people and so many young people that nobody's ever seen

914
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 10: anything like it. Frankly, turning Point USA. It's amazing and

915
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 10: it's actually bigger now. It's become bigger in the last

916
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 10: few weeks than Charlie ever thought. I think his end

917
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 10: vision in many years years from now would have been

918
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 10: just a fraction of what had turned out to be

919
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 10: in a couple of weeks. Right, it's amazing with hard

920
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 10: work and joyful spirit and endless and enthusiasm and determination.

921
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 10: And he did have great enthusiasm. You know, I say

922
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 10: you need enthusiasm success enthusiastic. Charlie grew Turning Point into

923
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 10: the largest conservative youth organization in the entire country. He

924
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 10: forged a personal bond with countless young conservatives. He fought

925
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 10: for free speech, religious liberty, strong borders, and a very

926
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,399
Speaker 10: strong and proud America. In everything he did, he put

927
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:41,320
Speaker 10: America first. He really put America first. And ultimately Charlie

928
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 10: became more than a leader of an important organization. He

929
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,320
Speaker 10: became the leader of historic movements all over the country.

930
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 10: There were movements, individual movements, one movement.

931
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 9: But it was historic. Everything he did was historic.

932
00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 10: And a true evangelist for the cause of freedom and

933
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 10: the word of Almighty God God was very important to Charlie.

934
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 10: He would say, you know, if you don't have religion,

935
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 10: you're not going to have a strong country.

936
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 9: It's true.

937
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:12,840
Speaker 10: He was so wise beyond his years. You know, I

938
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 10: talked to him sometimes. I said, this guy is like

939
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 10: a young guy.

940
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 9: He was really a wise man from the time.

941
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 10: Charlie worked on my presidential campaign in twenty sixteen, and

942
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 10: he was there right from the beginning. He liked me,

943
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 10: I don't know, I have no idea. Why what the

944
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,879
Speaker 10: hell was he thinking? He said, you're gonna win, sir.

945
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 10: I said, you know, I'm running against seventeen senators and

946
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 10: a lot of tough people and governors. We have all

947
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 10: these people. And he said, no, you're going to win, sir.

948
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 10: He said, not going to be close. And he made

949
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 10: it happen. He helped make it happen. I'll tell you

950
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 10: that without him, who knows what would be Maybe you'd.

951
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 9: Have Kamalist standing here today. That would not be good.

952
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 10: I will tell you how he you don't know who

953
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 10: Kamala is, promised it would not be good.

954
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 9: Do you agree with that, Howard.

955
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 10: He also mobilized countless citizens to go vote. It's called

956
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 10: go vote, very simple, and with his help, in twenty

957
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 10: twenty four, we won more young people than any Republican

958
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 10: by far in the history of our country, and we

959
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 10: won the popular vote. We won all of them. Remember,

960
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:22,840
Speaker 10: they said, oh well, if Trump could win four, that

961
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 10: would be nice. I went seven by a lot, by

962
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 10: a landslide. But the popular vote was massive, and we

963
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 10: won the electoral college. I remember they said, well, it's

964
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 10: going to be very hard. I'd say two hundred and seventy. Well,

965
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,359
Speaker 10: we got three hundred and twelve to twenty six. And

966
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:44,280
Speaker 10: then we won something called districts and councils and different things.

967
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 10: But in one case we won two thousand, seven hundred

968
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 10: and fifty to five hundred and twenty five. That's the

969
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,879
Speaker 10: one where you see the map is almost entirely read

970
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 10: except to have a little blue line on one side

971
00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 10: and a little blue line meaning New York and a

972
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 10: little bit Los Angeles. I have a feeling that if

973
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 10: the vote were one hundred percent, we would have won

974
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 10: that too.

975
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 9: You want to know the truth.

976
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 10: But he knew, and he knew very well, and he

977
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:14,280
Speaker 10: also understood honesty, and he was always concerned with honesty.

978
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 9: He said, the only way we can lose is if

979
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 9: the cheating gets so bad.

980
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 10: And that's where we came up with a little phrase,

981
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 10: too big to rig. We said, go out and vote,

982
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 10: Just go out and vote.

983
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 9: And we had that.

984
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 10: Remember we used to say that all the time because

985
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,719
Speaker 10: people would say, oh, they're going to win, we don't

986
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 10: have to vote, let's go to a movie. We'll come

987
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 10: home and watch later. And he wasn't about that. So

988
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 10: we had we come up to with really together, we

989
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,720
Speaker 10: came up with that phrase, we got to make.

990
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 9: It too big.

991
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 10: I never made a speech where I didn't say at

992
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 10: the end, now, look the polls are showing good.

993
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 9: Don't believe the pulse.

994
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 10: He said, We're going to make it, Susie right, too

995
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 10: big to rig. So if you think we're going to

996
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 10: win by a lot, doesn't matter. Pretend we're losing. You

997
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 10: got to go out a vote. They voted, and at

998
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 10: nine oh two, the whole thing was over right, nine

999
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 10: out two. Remember they said, oh, this could go a

1000
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:08,200
Speaker 10: few days. Well a few minutes nine out two. And

1001
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 10: he knew that, and I felt it.

1002
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 9: But he knew it. He knew it. I think he

1003
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:13,280
Speaker 9: knew it more than anybody.

1004
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 10: But Charlie never missed an opportunity to remind us of

1005
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 10: the Judeo Christian principles of our nation's founding, or to

1006
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 10: share his deep Christian faith. In his final moments, Charlie

1007
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 10: testified to the greatness of America and did the glory

1008
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 10: of our Savior, with whom he now rests in heaven.

1009
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 9: And he is going to make heaven.

1010
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 10: I said, I'm not sure I could make it, but

1011
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:39,439
Speaker 10: he's going to make it. He's there, he's looking down

1012
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 10: on us right now. It's so incredible. Look at this,

1013
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,080
Speaker 10: how this turned out. This was supposed to be so

1014
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,400
Speaker 10: dark and cloudy. Not dark and cloudy, is it? I

1015
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,360
Speaker 10: look at that, How beautiful that is. There's no artist

1016
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:55,560
Speaker 10: that can can capture it as beautiful as it is today. Wow,

1017
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 10: it's amazing. As I said on the day that he

1018
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 10: was assassin, they did. Charlie Kirk was a martyr for

1019
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 10: truth and for freedom, and from Socrates to think and

1020
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 10: to Saint Peter, from Abraham Lincoln to Martin Luther King,

1021
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 10: those who change.

1022
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,439
Speaker 9: History the most, and he really did.

1023
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 10: Have always risked their lives for causes they were put

1024
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 10: on earth to defend. He was put on earth to

1025
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,479
Speaker 10: do exactly what he was doing.

1026
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 9: He didn't want to waste time.

1027
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 10: He would have been a top student at any college

1028
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 10: in the country. I know, to college as well. He's

1029
00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 10: smarter than the guys. He was so smart, but he

1030
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:36,919
Speaker 10: almost I guess didn't have the time.

1031
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 9: He knew what he wanted to do.

1032
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 10: It wasn't like you, I want to sit in a

1033
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 10: classroom for four years listening to people teach me liberal

1034
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,400
Speaker 10: principles because they were never going to teach him that anyway.

1035
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 9: But he didn't have the time. He really didn't have

1036
00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 9: the time.

1037
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,360
Speaker 10: But every time the enemies of goodness and virtue tried

1038
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 10: to silence the voice of righteous and noble leaders like Charlie.

1039
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 9: They failed, They seemed to fail. Ultimately, they look like

1040
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:00,879
Speaker 9: they doing well.

1041
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,600
Speaker 10: And then they end up failing because the truth has

1042
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:10,280
Speaker 10: been unrelenting over the years, over history, and people like Charlie,

1043
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 10: it's just they've got a power that others don't have,

1044
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 10: and very few people will ever have. So today, like

1045
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 10: those martyrs before him, Charlie's voice, his message, and his

1046
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 10: legacy are stronger and greater than
