1 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts. 2 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 2: Now, all the conversations about politics are ultimately futile if 3 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 2: we don't know that there is a God and it's 4 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 2: not us. When you understand that the things of the 5 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 2: political world which are important, they all become secondary because 6 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 2: you realize the battlefield is not of this world. It's 7 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 2: not a political battlefield, it's a spiritual battlefield. Maybe that 8 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 2: culture is downstream of our faith, and so yes, culture 9 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 2: is more important than politics, but faith is what defines 10 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 2: what kind of culture we live in. 11 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 3: And Charlie understood that, and he lived. 12 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 4: In my current belief, and I think it's the right 13 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 4: way of looking is I'm far more in interested in 14 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 4: what God wants of me and what I want from God. 15 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 5: One word to describe Charlie Kirk. 16 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 6: I look at him and think how powerful he is. 17 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 7: So if I could think of one word, I think it's. 18 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 3: Powerful, ethical, faithful, passion. Charlie lived with passion. 19 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: To ascribe one word for Charlie, it would be he was. 20 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 8: A force personal. He's a man of courage. 21 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 9: He was resilient in his faith, he was resilient in 22 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 9: his conviction, he was resilient in his knowledge of the 23 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 9: word of God, his love for the country, his knowledge 24 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 9: of being a patriot. 25 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 10: Charlie was a man of honor, of character, love for God, 26 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 10: and of course love for his family. 27 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 8: And that's what I believe he'll. 28 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 11: Always be known for. 29 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 9: What to Charlie, I would say, on this side of eternity, 30 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 9: thank you for answering call, and as a believer, I 31 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 9: will see him again. 32 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 7: For many of us in this country, we know we'll 33 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 7: see him again, but I want to say thank you, 34 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 7: thank you for what you've done for so many of 35 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 7: our young people. 36 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 12: Well, first of all, I would just express enormous gratitude. 37 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: What you allowed God to unleash in our country. You 38 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 2: were a really, really important vessel. 39 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,399 Speaker 8: You ran hard. 40 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 13: And it's hard to even talk about his name in 41 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 13: the past, and still it's difficult to articulate the depth 42 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 13: of gratitude that we should all hold for Charlie Kirk. 43 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 7: Charlie would not want anyone to be silenced by that 44 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 7: bullet that stole him from us. I feel like the 45 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 7: message that the world is sending to Charlie Kirk right 46 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 7: now is that his sacrifice certainly wasn't for naught. 47 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 14: When you make that covenant with the Lord on that altar. 48 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 14: Don't let that fire burn out from the altar. That 49 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 14: love is so special and so powerful. You married your soulmate. 50 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 14: You married the person who God made for you. 51 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 15: He was the perfect father, He was the perfect husband. 52 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 15: Charlie always believed that God's design for marriage and the 53 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 15: family was absolutely amazing. 54 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 5: And it is. 55 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 15: It is, and it was the greatest. 56 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 5: Joy of his life. 57 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 15: And over and over he would tell all these young 58 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 15: people to come and find their future spells, become wives 59 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 15: and husbands and parents. And the reason why is because 60 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 15: he wanted you all to experience what he had and 61 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 15: still has. He wanted everyone to bring Heaven into this 62 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 15: earth through love and joy that comes from raising a family. 63 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 5: It's beautiful. 64 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 16: Every day. 65 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 17: There's a battle for your mind, raging information coming from 66 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 17: every angle, but the will to the sieve. 67 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 16: I fear not. 68 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 17: You found the place for truth, the voice of a 69 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 17: generation that still has the will to believe in the 70 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 17: greatest country in the history of the world. 71 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 16: This is the Charlie kirk Show.

There. 93 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 11: I just want to start, you know, at the basics. 94 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 18: You have not had a chance, at least on this 95 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 18: show to reflect on the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk. 96 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 18: This is, of course, would have been his thirty second birthday. 97 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 18: We are in d C in order because the President 98 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 18: promised Erica that he was going to award Charlie the 99 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 18: Presidential Medal of Freedom on his thirty second birthday. He 100 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 18: literally moved world events in order to race back to 101 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 18: DC and or to make good on that promise to Erica. 102 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 18: So the floor is yours secretary, just expound on what 103 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 18: Charlie meant to you, your interactions with him, and what 104 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 18: the last month has meant to you in this country. 105 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 19: Andrew I was actually walking out of the Vice President's 106 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 19: office when news of what happened to Charlie hit and 107 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 19: then the news that he had passed came after that, 108 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 19: And what really hit me was if someone wanted to 109 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 19: try to end the Maggot movement, the America first and 110 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 19: the turning point USA Ethos obviously ten years out, Charlie 111 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 19: was going to be carrying the torch. And if you 112 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 19: wanted to try to end the movement, the way to 113 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 19: do it was to assassinate Charlie. And clearly this is 114 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 19: what was on that person's mind. We'll see if there 115 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 19: was a larger network involved with this, I have no 116 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 19: reason to believe there was. I have no reason to 117 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 19: believe there wasn't. And to me, everyone knows Charlie was 118 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 19: a family man. He was a Christian, he was a patriot. 119 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 19: But the Charlie I knew too was also an educator. 120 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 19: And what I admired on the show was the love 121 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 19: that he had for all of his listeners, for everyone 122 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 19: involved in turning point for his country. But what he 123 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 19: did on the show, and that's how I got to 124 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 19: know him. And one of the reasons I'm sitting here 125 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 19: today is that Charlie was such an aggressive and forceful 126 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 19: advocate for me to become Secretary of the Treasurer because 127 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 19: of the time we'd spent together, and his financial breadth 128 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 19: and depth was incredible. He was an autodidact. He was 129 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 19: self taught in finance, and he passed that knowledge on 130 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 19: because he saw as I saw that what had happened 131 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 19: to this generation, this group of young people, and it's 132 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 19: been a tough time those the financial crisis in two 133 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 19: thousand and eight, there was COVID, but he was optimistic 134 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 19: and always talked about the future. 135 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 11: How do we get ahead, how do we stay ahead? 136 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 19: And Charlie, like myself, believes in the system, and if 137 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 19: you believe the system works, which I do, which he did, 138 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 19: you want to bring more people into the system. And 139 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 19: it's through education. That's why I say he was such 140 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 19: a great educator. 141 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 11: I think that's really well said he. 142 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 18: If you boil down his mission, his mission was about 143 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 18: his faith, His mission was about his country and his family. 144 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 18: But his mission was in a general sense, about bringing 145 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 18: disaffected young people into the American dream. He wanted them 146 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 18: to buy into America the idea of what this country is. 147 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 18: And you guys talked about that. You actually had I 148 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 18: believe it was April. Alexandria could fact check me on that, 149 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 18: but it was Financial Literacy Month, and you honored him 150 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 18: in the show, and we brought in a bunch of 151 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 18: TPUSA chapters from around the country, and you talked about finance. 152 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 20: I mean that. 153 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 18: So you have shown your commitment to the same things 154 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 18: that Charlie was committed to, of bringing in the next 155 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 18: generation and living the American dream as you have, and 156 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 18: maybe just speak about that and the importance of bringing 157 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 18: this next generation into the system into believing they can 158 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 18: make it in America, that they don't have to be 159 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 18: disaffected young people anymore. 160 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 19: Well, in a way too, Charlie. When I was younger, 161 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 19: there was someone called Norman Vincippeal And for those of 162 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 19: you who don't know, President Trump went to Marvel Collegiate 163 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 19: Church in New York and the minister was Norman Vinci 164 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 19: Peal and he wrote a famous book called The Power 165 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 19: of Positive Thinking. And in a way, Charlie was the 166 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 19: Norman Vincent Peal for your generation. And it's easy to 167 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 19: be cynical, it's easy to it down. The world is 168 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 19: a tough place. It's moving fast, but it always has 169 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 19: and you know, to look forward.

He always 272 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 19: whenever we have a lot of the business leaders in 273 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 19: the office, he'll poke at him a little. Wellire here now, 274 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 19: but you weren't with me in twenty twenty two during 275 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 19: those right dark days, but the people were with President Trump. 276 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 19: That's what the first time I went to see the 277 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 19: President about two years ago and told him I wanted 278 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 19: to be part of the campaign, you were like a superstock. 279 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 19: You go up on bad news because the people are 280 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 19: with you. And you know, going going back to when 281 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 19: we were talking about Charlie that the five Hours of 282 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 19: tribute to him a few weeks ago, I wasn't able 283 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 19: to make it, but I watched it all on TV 284 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 19: and there was some incredible points, made, eulogies, feelings, passion. 285 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 19: But one thing that really struck with stuck with me 286 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 19: was what Stephen North said, They have made you immortal. 287 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 11: They have made you immortal. 288 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 19: So you know, with the award today, Charlie, as I said, 289 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 19: he President Trump is a movement. Charlie was a younger 290 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 19: version of the movement and would have carried it on. 291 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 11: But the movement now is going. 292 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 19: To be mortal, and I think that this generation should 293 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 19: be inspired. Whenever anyone asked me what they should do, 294 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 19: look that the President is setting the table for all 295 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 19: kinds of opportunities. We are bringing back precision, manufacturing, so 296 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 19: there are going to be factory jobs. We are reaching 297 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 19: out to main street through small banks, and small banks 298 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 19: are the lenders to small business, so young people want 299 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 19: to start businesses. I may not look like it in 300 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 19: these clothes, but I'm also a very large farmer, so 301 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 19: small banks are the large largest source of agricultural lending. 302 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 19: So for your listeners in rural areas, we've seen people 303 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 19: moving away from farms. I think farming is great business. 304 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 19: I got into it about ten years ago, so you 305 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 19: know there are opportunities and it's going to require both 306 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 19: financial literacy and skills based training. We have an incredible 307 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 19: shortage in the trades and nursing that we probably over 308 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 19: emphasized college degrees. And I'm sure there's this whole generation 309 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 19: who got out who they've got a lot of student 310 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 19: loan debt and degrees that don't work for him. But 311 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,719 Speaker 19: I think through President Trump's initiatives, we are going to 312 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 19: see a both a main street comeback, a working class comeback, 313 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 19: and the opportunity to accumulate the real assets over the 314 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 19: long term. 315 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 18: Well, I certainly hope you're right, and people don't realize 316 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 18: this about Charlie, but he was an auto autodid act. 317 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 11: He was a self taught man. 318 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 18: W came to economics and he was really into the 319 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 18: Austrian school, the Milton Friedman. I mean that was actually 320 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 18: his start was learning the macroeconomic basics and then and 321 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 18: then advanced learnings as well. But he was rooted in 322 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 18: fundamental economic ideas. 323 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 19: I was in all this knowledge. He was like as 324 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 19: Benjamin Franklin was to electricity. He told himself he was 325 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 19: to economics. Yeah, and he could talk it with the 326 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 19: best of them. And you saw that first. 327 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 18: And we're going to welcome back National Radio in just 328 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 18: about five seconds.

That was the last message 373 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 21: that he sent me before that assassin stole him from 374 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 21: all of us. 375 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 11: So that is a powerful clip. 376 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 18: Steven Millers said something similar when JD hosted the show 377 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 18: on the Monday after he was assassinated. 378 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 11: And Treasury. 379 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 18: I come to find out coming to DC that Treasury 380 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 18: has taken an active role in an aspect of this 381 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 18: dismantling of the financial networks that are supporting some of 382 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 18: these radical left violent groups. 383 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 11: Share with what you can. I know it's an ongoing process. 384 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 19: So it's an ongoing process, and I will tell you 385 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 19: that after nine to eleven, Treasury became the driving force 386 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 19: behind tracking down the networks of terrorist organizations, how they 387 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 19: were financed, How could this have happened on US soil 388 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 19: with these international terrorist organizations. Where did the money come from? 389 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 19: Who were the ultimate funders? And that was on the 390 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 19: international side. And Andrew I will tell you that Charlie's 391 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 19: death is like a domestic nine to eleven that we 392 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 19: are going to find. It has alerted us to what 393 00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 19: Charlie knew. That these organizations are working within our orders. 394 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 19: And look, we believe people have a right to free speech, 395 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 19: they have a right to organize, they have a right 396 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 19: to protest, but they have to do it peacefully. They 397 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 19: cannot embrace violence. And we have seen it. We've seen 398 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 19: it since the terrible day two years ago, the anti 399 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 19: Semitism and the bias that came out after October seventh, 400 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 19: twenty twenty three, and many of these organizations have been 401 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 19: financed by nonprofits. And it's going to stop, and we 402 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 19: are going to, as they always say, follow the money. 403 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 19: When you see these groups where all the signs match, 404 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 19: they have hundreds of the same umbrellas that they're using. 405 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 19: After they cause the mayhem, they have the same lasers 406 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 19: that they're using to blind our police force. How are 407 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 19: they constructed? Because this takes a lot of money, it 408 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 19: takes a lot of work organization, and we are going 409 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 19: to do that. We have started to compile lists, put 410 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 19: together networks, and there's a long record here. And we 411 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 19: don't know how much of the support's coming in from overseas. 412 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 19: We don't know how much being supported by US nonprofits 413 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 19: C three's that give money to C fourth. But this 414 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 19: is mission critical for US now. Just as after nine 415 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 19: to eleven and Osama bin Laden, the ultimate culprit was captured, 416 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 19: we are operationalizing this. Heret treasury and we are going 417 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 19: to track down who is responsible for this. So Charlie's 418 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 19: death has set this off and we are determined. We're 419 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 19: determined not only to honor him, but to keep our 420 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 19: country safe and to ensure freedom of speech on both 421 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 19: sides that we can't as conservatives, we can't be afraid 422 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 19: to go out and speak. I know people are canceling speeches, 423 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 19: they're having to bring down the size of the rallies. 424 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 19: President Trump was millimeters away from death and he was 425 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 19: not deterred. And we're not going to be deterred. 426 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 18: God bless you for that. I wish I had more time, 427 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 18: but that was a powerful message.

He got really passionate about the 503 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 18: debt and the. 504 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 11: Currency evaluations and things like this. 505 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 18: And so you are one of the guys that goes 506 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 18: out into the media and talks about what the good 507 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 18: work that Treasury is doing. And we were talking in 508 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 18: the break about, you know, how this economy is doing. 509 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 18: Is it doing well? Is it doing is it a 510 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,719 Speaker 18: mixed bag? I think it's doing mostly well. I mean, 511 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 18: the animal spirits are alive and well in this country. 512 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 18: So maybe just start there and tell us give us 513 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 18: that thirty thousand foot view of how you see things going, 514 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 18: how Treasury is viewing things in this current moment. 515 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 8: Sure, thank you very much for having me. 516 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 12: The data are are as good as. 517 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 8: They could be. 518 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 12: I mean, they're actually very good thanks to President Trump. 519 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 12: So in the second quarter's first full quarter in office, 520 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 12: we grew. 521 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 8: Three point eight percent. If you take the. 522 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 12: Federal side out, we actually grew four and a half percent, 523 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 12: So the real GDP excluding the federal government grew at 524 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 12: four and a half percent. 525 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 8: And in the third quarter, the latest estimate. 526 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 12: From the Atlanta Fed, which a lot of people look at, 527 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 12: is at three eight with also a very similar profile 528 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 12: of the growth being led by the private sector consumers 529 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 12: and a capital spending capex that's investment in things like 530 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 12: AI and other technologies. 531 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 8: So that's really what's driving the economy. The labor market 532 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 8: is not great. 533 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 12: We learned after the fact that the Biden job machine 534 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 12: really didn't work very well that we had about two 535 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 12: million downward revisions over two years. 536 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 8: That's a huge number. 537 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 12: So the economy is doing well thanks to President Trump. 538 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 12: We need to get the labor market turning higher. Unfortunately, 539 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 12: to shut down is hurting a lot, actually, and that's 540 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 12: a factor that we're concerned about. But the long term 541 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 12: outlook under President Trump is excellent. 542 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 11: It's great. 543 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 10: So Charlie was very one of the things he would 544 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 10: talk about repeatedly over the last few months. He talked 545 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 10: about the future of young people in America because there's 546 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 10: a lot. 547 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 11: Of extremism among young people. 548 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 10: We've seen polls, even after Charlie's death that show shockingly 549 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 10: high share of especially those on the left, among those 550 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 10: under forty, support overt political violence. And you would talk 551 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 10: about this choice between Maga and mangioniism Luigimangioni and the. 552 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 11: Guy who shot the healthcare CEO. 553 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 10: And he would basically say, you need to give young 554 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 10: people a stake in the economy, a sense that they 555 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 10: have ownership of things, or they'll become. 556 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 11: Really politically radical. 557 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 10: One of his big passions was you need to have 558 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 10: young people be owning homes. We've seen I think in 559 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 10: the nineteen eighties the average first time home buyer was 560 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 10: about twenty nine years old. That's grown to thirty eight. 561 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 10: It's gone up almost four or five years just since COVID, 562 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 10: I believe, and he was very concerned with that that 563 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 10: what can we do to make it so young people 564 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 10: are buying into the system rather than feeling hopeless and atomized. 565 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 10: And I was wondering if you have any thoughts on 566 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 10: what the Trump administration can do along that dimension to 567 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 10: especially uplift the youngest Americans who are otherwise at risk 568 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 10: of getting really radicalized. 569 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 12: Charlie's exactly right, and the Treasury Secretary recently highlighted the 570 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 12: fact that we haven't housing affordability crisis. To Charlie's points 571 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 12: that he was making so eloquently, one of the things 572 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 12: you can do, certainly is get inflation down, because under 573 00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 12: the prior administration, inflation ran at a near five percent 574 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 12: annual rate. 575 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 8: That's the highest since. 576 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 12: The inflationary seventies. When you have high inflation, you have 577 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 12: high interest rates. 578 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 8: Under President Trump, he's. 579 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 12: Been able to get inflation rate down substantially. That's allowed 580 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 12: blue collar wages to expand, it to grow quite significantly, 581 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 12: and also a lot of interest rates of the decline. 582 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 12: So you look right now at US interest rates, the 583 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 12: tenure yield, the benchmark borrowing rate for mortgages and for 584 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 12: corporate barers is around four percent, So that's very positive, 585 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 12: and that will eventually pull mortgage rates down because inflation 586 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 12: is declining and all the investment that I talked about 587 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 12: that President Trump is getting going in the economy that 588 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 12: will increase the economy's ability to produce goods and services, 589 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 12: which will further lower inflation, so mortgage rates can't come 590 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 12: down further. The administration is also working on things to 591 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 12: try to expredite the permitting process, trying to lower some 592 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 12: of the costs. Things like that will help, no question, because, 593 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 12: as you said, young people need to have a skin 594 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,040 Speaker 12: in the game, need to have a stake in the 595 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 12: outcome and feel like they're not disillusioned. So Charlie was 596 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 12: exactly right about that. It will take time to undo 597 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 12: the policies we had under the prior administration, but we 598 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 12: are optimistic that as the cost of living goes down 599 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 12: and as worker wages rise, you'll get more young people 600 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 12: being able to go into the home you know, the 601 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 12: home market, and be able to buy, get affordability higher, 602 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 12: and things will turn. 603 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 8: I'll take some time, but things will turn. 604 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 10: Another important part will be another thing Charlie talked about 605 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,720 Speaker 10: a lot, the college scam, sort of deflating the scam 606 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 10: elements of higher education. Did you see this yesterday with 607 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,959 Speaker 10: the I believe it was Santa Clara's School of Law. 608 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 11: No, So this is something. 609 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:41,800 Speaker 10: That's unfolding right now. One of the things that Trump 610 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 10: administration recently did is it capped the annual amount of 611 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 10: student loans you could take in the plus loans to 612 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 10: fifty thousand. 613 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 11: Dollars a year. This is the super student loan. 614 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 10: A lot of people getting graduate degrees to get it, 615 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 10: and they capped it at fifty thousand dollars a year. 616 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 10: So Santa Clara School of Law last year their tuition 617 00:35:58,480 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 10: was sixty two thousand dollars. 618 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 20: This year they announced a scholarship that. 619 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 10: Every single person who goes to the school will get, 620 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 10: such that their tuition is now fifty thousand dollars. 621 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 11: Yes, that's a practical example. Practical example. 622 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 8: That's the government. I mean, I mean Alice Rivlin. 623 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,879 Speaker 12: I'm probably not well known among many folk. 624 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 8: Old person like me knows who she is. 625 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 12: She was head of the Gradual Budget Office under I 626 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 12: believe under Clinton, and was a vice chair of the FETCH. 627 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 8: She's certainly not a rightist in any. 628 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 12: Way a shape form, but she talked about how government 629 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 12: with education causes all sorts of big problems and how 630 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 12: they basically create artificial demand. To your point about what 631 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 12: the Trump administration is doing, trying to get government out 632 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:42,720 Speaker 12: of the market, so that's very important and lowering costs, 633 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,720 Speaker 12: So things like this are very important. Let the private 634 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,479 Speaker 12: sector do its job and let the government get out 635 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 12: of the way so that costs can fall to make 636 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 12: education cheaper for everyone. This also comes back to your 637 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 12: point on housing, trying to get the government out of 638 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 12: the way, senseless regulation us on allow building and things 639 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 12: to go forward in a more productive way so that 640 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 12: cost can be you know, can be lower. 641 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 18: How concerned are we about artificial intelligence? You talked about 642 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 18: this dichotomy between you had four point five percent real 643 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 18: growth in the in the private sector, but you are 644 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 18: there are struggles in the labor market. Obviously, that's what 645 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 18: I think of first when I think about young people 646 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 18: getting skin in the game, getting on that the first 647 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 18: rung of the ladder to start building wealth and building 648 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 18: a career. Is ai something that you are looking at actively? 649 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 18: How concerned are you about it eroding especially those entry 650 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 18: level jobs? You think financial markets, right, financial analysts on 651 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 18: Wall Street, That's that's the first jobs that. 652 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 11: Are getting cut. So how worried are we about that 653 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 11: first rung on the ladder of career buildings as the 654 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 11: first jobs that are going to get cut because we're 655 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 11: seeing some negative trends with gen Z employment. 656 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 12: Look, all new technologies are very disruptive, but the history, 657 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 12: the US economic history, is such that they ultimately get 658 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 12: the economy growing and expanding and thriving in a much 659 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 12: better place. So I'm not worried about AI necessarily replacing jobs, 660 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 12: although there might be some areas where there is some 661 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 12: some effect. We need a lot of jobs and a 662 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 12: lot of high tech areas, certainly in a lot of 663 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 12: high skilled areas of trades, tradesmen, plumbers, electricians, carpenters, all 664 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 12: those things. 665 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,360 Speaker 8: To build, we need a lot of that labor. 666 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 12: We're so short of the fact that the administration has 667 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 12: secured the border and gotten rid of significant amounts of 668 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 12: illegal workers, which are artificially depressing worker wages is also 669 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 12: very important. But like when you want to build and 670 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 12: the president wants to reindustrialize the manufacturing base, create high 671 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 12: value added. 672 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 8: High paying jobs, those aren't AI jobs. 673 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 12: Those are jobs that you're building, You're operating a factory 674 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 12: you're getting capital coming in. That's where the US economy 675 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 12: will thrive. And President Trump is a builder, knows how 676 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,720 Speaker 12: to create things. The Secretary has been excellent and helping 677 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 12: articulate and seeing that vision through. 678 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 8: And you're gonna we've got all these new industries. 679 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 12: Look at the equity market, look at the boom we're 680 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 12: sitting across, these hyperscalers. 681 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 8: I mean, there's so many wonderful opportunities. 682 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 12: I have to think that the outlook and the ability 683 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 12: to do business and to transact in a meaningful way 684 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 12: and not being peded by government regulation and high taxes, 685 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 12: those are all things that are going to create jobs 686 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 12: for all sorts of people, all sorts of Americans. So 687 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 12: it makes me really optimistic. It's not to say there 688 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 12: weren't certain areas. There will be some dislocations, but President 689 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,280 Speaker 12: Trump knows how to create jobs and we'll get it done. 690 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 11: You know. 691 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 18: I we were had the opportunity to speak with the 692 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 18: Vice President yesterday just briefly, and you know, it struck 693 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 18: me that he is extraordinarily bullish, glass half full, you 694 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 18: could say, on AI and its ultimate impact that you know, 695 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 18: we've seen this with the railroad, We've seen this with 696 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 18: the automobile. 697 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 11: We've seen this with the dot com boom. 698 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 18: So these new technologies come in, they are disruptive, but 699 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 18: ultimately they lead to you know, greater productivity, which leads 700 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 18: to additional job opportunities, and hopefully we are able to 701 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 18: backfill some of that with trade schools that are in 702 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 18: higher trades. Right, you think of trade schools, you think 703 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 18: of you know, carpenter, hvac, that kind of thing, But 704 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 18: there's trade schools for these high tech Maybe it's going 705 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,240 Speaker 18: to be trade schools for programming or robotics or automation. 706 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 6: That's right. 707 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 12: My father he's retired mostly, but he ran the largest 708 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 12: trade school, vocational trade school in Connecticut.

I believe that the celebrities who were 824 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 18: moving out of America may have been funding Antifa and 825 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 18: other socialis justice for Charlie. 826 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 11: We're going to find out. 827 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 18: That's what's so great about what Treasury is doing as well. 828 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 18: So I'm going to play a clip for you here, 829 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 18: Joe and I have to confess our audience is probably 830 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 18: like I was barely aware of the shutdown. 831 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:13,359 Speaker 11: I mean, obviously I follow the news. 832 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:15,879 Speaker 18: I knew it was happening, but you know, outside of 833 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 18: the DC area it wasn't. But when I came here, 834 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 18: all of a sudden, it was like, Oh, I can 835 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 18: feel the shutdown, right, you really feel it when you're 836 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,879 Speaker 18: in DC. Let's go ahead and play a cut that's 837 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 18: going viral right now. Speaker Mike Johnson listing some of 838 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:28,240 Speaker 18: the crazy things that they. 839 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 11: Want to pass in order to reopen the government. The 840 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:31,399 Speaker 11: Democrats one. 841 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 24: In their legislation, their kind of proposal on the sere 842 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 24: to keep the lights open. 843 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:36,839 Speaker 11: This is what they want to do. 844 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 24: They want to spend twenty four point six million of 845 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 24: your hard earned dollars as a taxpayer for climate. 846 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:43,839 Speaker 11: Resilience in Honduras. 847 00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 24: They want to spend thirteen point four million for civic 848 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:50,479 Speaker 24: engagement in Zimbabwe. They want to send three point nine 849 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 24: million for LGBTQI plus democracy grants and the Western Balkans. 850 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 20: They want to spend two point. 851 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 24: Nine million of your dollars for desert low focused risk 852 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 24: reduction in the Horn of Africa and two million for 853 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 24: quote organizing for feminist democratic principles in Africa. 854 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:17,760 Speaker 18: So, Joe, you're the counselor to the Treasury Secretary Scott 855 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 18: isn't you You know this stuff better than any but 856 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,719 Speaker 18: you're also like a famed economist. I want people to 857 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 18: understand that you're You're not just these spokesman, you are 858 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 18: yourself a really renowned economist. Our people don't care about 859 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 18: the shutdown. They care about Charlie's birthday things. 860 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 11: But the question is should they. 861 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 8: Here's why it matters. 862 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 12: Cea councy Goomic Advisors estimated that we could be losing 863 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 12: fifteen billion dollars per week of lost output because of 864 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 12: this shutdown. That's a lot of money that adds up 865 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 12: obviously cumulatively over time. 866 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 8: Significant. 867 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 12: But because we're not and because we're not getting any 868 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 12: economic data the Fellow Reserve, which the President has accurately 869 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 12: said rates are too high, the Fed has begun cutting 870 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 12: interest rates. If we had data that I think might 871 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 12: be weaker, because, as I said earlier, the Biden jobs 872 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,279 Speaker 12: market was not very good, and we got handed in 873 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 12: a market that was losing a lot of downward momentum, 874 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 12: maybe the Fetcher cut rates. More So, not having the 875 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 12: data because of the shutdown is the problem, because you 876 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 12: maybe not making the best policy decisions because we don't 877 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:24,839 Speaker 12: have any information, and of course there is an economic hit, 878 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 12: and there's also a human toll. 879 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 8: This doesn't have to happen, as I'm sure you know. 880 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 12: There were thirteen clean budget, clean continuing resolutions the Democrats 881 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 12: passed over the past four years, and if you go 882 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 12: back to look historically, I counted no less than fifteen 883 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 12: the Republicans passed when they were the minority party in 884 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 12: power without there being a shutdown. 885 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 18: So in the same speech, by the way, Speaker Mike 886 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 18: Johnson said that they went and counted all of the 887 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 18: CRS that Chuck Schumer supported and it was twenty nine 888 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 18: out of thirty over his tension, and the one he 889 00:48:58,640 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 18: hasn't is this one. 890 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 11: You know, Blake, I don't know if you have your 891 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 11: final thoughts. 892 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 18: We're coming up against a break on the hour, but 893 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 18: maybe we just leave it with go ahead. 894 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 11: Honestly I would. I'd like to leave it with I 895 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 11: don't know if we have it ready to throw up. 896 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 10: Someone ordered, yeah, this is great Charlie's, you know Starbucks, 897 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 10: order the Mint Majesty tea with two honey packets, and 898 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 10: the barista took that order and then wrote on the cup. 899 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:24,320 Speaker 11: Don't lose your voice. 900 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:29,240 Speaker 10: And it's also Barista's in Supaul, South Dakota, where I'm from, 901 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 10: So I'm going to shout out my hometown for having 902 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 10: good baristas. 903 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 11: That's amazing.

One of the lesser known facts about the 912 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 22: body is its ability to renew itself, even in areas 913 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 22: we once thought couldn't regenerate. This woman that I'm about 914 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,879 Speaker 22: to introduce you to is a witness and it's all 915 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 22: thanks to her work with energized health. 916 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 25: Mental clarity is amazing. I hadn't been able to basically 917 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 25: feel my feet for about a year and a half, 918 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 25: and I just realized last week after the cat ran 919 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,800 Speaker 25: across them and they hurt, that I can really feel again. 920 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 25: I don't have pain in my back. I can get 921 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 25: on the floor and get back up without help when 922 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 25: I'm playing with my grandkids. And the piece that I 923 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 25: have since I started is absolutely incredible. I'm an entirely 924 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:57,720 Speaker 25: different person. 925 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 22: The man who helped her out is right there on 926 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 22: your screen. John Jubilee, the founder and CEO of Energized Health. John, 927 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 22: Good to see you. 928 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 20: Great to see you, Terrence. 929 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 22: So let's talk about some of the areas where the 930 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 22: body can kind of rejuvenate itself and how does hydration 931 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 22: actually help support that sort of healing. 932 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 20: Yeah, well, first of all, you know what a great story. 933 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 20: You know, so terrors. 934 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 23: A lot of people have neuropathy or they have nerve 935 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 23: damage because our poor circulation. 936 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,440 Speaker 20: And so what a cool thing. 937 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 23: That someone said, Hey, that was a good feeling that 938 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 23: my feet hurt because I had a cat run across 939 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 23: those cat cloths. But you know, anyone that has any 940 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 23: type of you know, neuropathy or sometimes what they call 941 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 23: you know, drop foot, you know, a deadfoot, you know 942 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 23: those type of things, you know, the sleeping issues, the 943 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 23: brain fog. You know, when you get that healthy circulation going, Terrence, 944 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 23: through that inner saular hydration, you really can reverse those things. 945 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 23: And you know, and I love hearing about you know, 946 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 23: not just parents, but grandparents. 947 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 20: Right, So here's grandparents. 948 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:07,320 Speaker 23: That lady said, Terrence, she's getting down on the floor, 949 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:11,440 Speaker 23: up and down off the floor as a grandparent playing 950 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 23: with their grandkids. 951 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 20: And you know that's creating a legacy. When you can. 952 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 23: Actually be an active participant in your grandchildren's lives, that's 953 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,720 Speaker 23: going to leave a legacy. Your grandkids will never forget 954 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 23: that Grandma or grandpa was getting up and down off 955 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 23: the floor. 956 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:29,280 Speaker 20: Playing with them, Terrence. 957 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 23: And there's there's an amazing medical study that came out 958 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 23: that said longitivity of life is basically now tied. 959 00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:40,840 Speaker 20: To one thing, which is strength. Strength. 960 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 23: The stronger we are, Terrence, the longer and better we're 961 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:50,240 Speaker 23: going to live. And our muscles are seventy five percent water. 962 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 23: There's seventy five percent water. So that's the power of 963 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 23: intersular hydration. It gives us our lean muscle mass, which 964 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:02,240 Speaker 23: gives us our strength, which gives us a long, amazing life. 965 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 22: And it's my understanding that this intercellular hydration that you 966 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 22: talk about also could help us with our brain kind 967 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:12,439 Speaker 22: of getting those neurons and protons firing well. 968 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 20: One thousand percent. 969 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 23: You know, our brain is seventy percent water. Our brain 970 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 23: is mostly water, and our brain and our heart are 971 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:24,560 Speaker 23: electromagnetic devices. 972 00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,040 Speaker 20: They are electrical. 973 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 23: And how come nobody would get in the bathtub and 974 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 23: turn on their blow dryer and throw it in the 975 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:34,359 Speaker 23: bathtub because everyone knows water conducts electricity. 976 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,760 Speaker 20: You would get electrocuted. It's the same in your brain. 977 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 23: The more hydration you have in the brain, the more 978 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 23: electrical conductivity. 979 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 20: You have, so you have way. 980 00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 23: More neural transmitters and brain synapses firing in there. 981 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:50,600 Speaker 20: Terrence the brain. 982 00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 23: There's three things in a human body that never age. 983 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 23: Your voice always stays the same. The voice doesn't age. 984 00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 23: That's why you'll see some eighty year old singing just 985 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,240 Speaker 23: like they did when they're twenty. 986 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:05,760 Speaker 20: Your eyes always look the same. Your eyes don't age. 987 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,680 Speaker 23: That's why they can use a retinal scan because the 988 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:14,160 Speaker 23: eye never changes. And our brain actually never ages. It 989 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 23: only gets dehydrated.

So 1022 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 11: it really is fitting that you're here on his what 1023 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 11: would have been his thirty second birthday. 1024 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 7: That feeling couldn't possibly be more mutual, the respect, the 1025 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 7: admiration that I and so many others have had for him. 1026 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 7: And I shared a thought with both of you when 1027 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:24,160 Speaker 7: we were together last night about what's happened over the 1028 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 7: course the last month, coming across these parents who had 1029 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 7: no idea how much their sons and daughters were greatly 1030 00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 7: looking up to Charlie and paying attention to tuning into 1031 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 7: this podcast every day, listening to all of those videos 1032 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 7: over TikTok and learning so much from him. Again, inspired 1033 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:47,000 Speaker 7: by Charlie and what's happened over the last month, not 1034 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:50,400 Speaker 7: only have these parents had this epiphany as what was 1035 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:53,000 Speaker 7: going on with their sons and daughters, but now those 1036 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,880 Speaker 7: parents have been watching all these videos, I'm like wow, 1037 00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 7: And I gotta say, as somebody who was in touch 1038 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 7: with Charlie Aton, I appreciated him. 1039 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 6: But like when you when. 1040 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,839 Speaker 7: You saw the response following his death, not just from 1041 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 7: across this country, but are around the world. I didn't 1042 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 7: spend any time thinking about this, you know, a possibility 1043 00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 7: that we might lose Charlley so soon and that you'd 1044 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:23,919 Speaker 7: have that kind of a turnout on his passing. And 1045 00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:28,960 Speaker 7: I remember driving into the stadium and seeing so many 1046 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 7: people who were walking the other way because the stadium 1047 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 7: was full. The overflow was full, and I mean it's 1048 00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 7: it was a hot day inside of Phoenix. These are older, 1049 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 7: older people, but you could have filled up another stadium. 1050 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 18: We could have filled up I think three maybe four actually, yeah, 1051 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 18: with all the people that were there. It was funny 1052 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 18: because our tech partners apparently this is very standard a 1053 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,120 Speaker 18: stadium like this where they monitor how many devices are 1054 00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:00,200 Speaker 18: in and around the stadium. It's not some like conspiracy 1055 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 18: or whatever, but they you know, the State Farm Arena 1056 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 18: or stadium rather you know it's hosts Super Bowls and 1057 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,920 Speaker 18: things like that. They're very I have a great team actually, 1058 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 18: and they confirmed with us it was two hundred and 1059 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 18: seventy seven thousand devices. So I mean you figure you 1060 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 18: got seventy thousand people in that stadium. I mean you 1061 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 18: could have filled that up three maybe more times. And 1062 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 18: so it was an amazing, amazing outpouring of support, and 1063 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 18: as you said, you know you, I mean we were 1064 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,480 Speaker 18: up close to it. And I kept telling Charlie every 1065 00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 18: six months, I'd be like, I have to recalibrate just 1066 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 18: how famous you've become. 1067 00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 11: I couldn't because I was so close to it. 1068 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:40,960 Speaker 18: And then I would see him and I would take 1069 00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 18: him out, and these moments would happen. 1070 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:44,680 Speaker 11: I'd be like, you're getting mob like you're a beatle, 1071 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 11: you know. Yeah. 1072 00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 7: I remember shortly after I came into Congress and Charlie 1073 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 7: was doing an event in d C. And we're talking 1074 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 7: about almost a decade ago, and I walked into this 1075 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:03,480 Speaker 7: venue in DC and there were thousands of young men 1076 00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 7: and women with so much energy, and it was just 1077 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 7: so genuine. It was so it was so pure. For 1078 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 7: people who are talking about Charlie as if this was, 1079 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 7: you know, some explosion over the course of you know, 1080 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:19,280 Speaker 7: the last few months or the last couple of years. 1081 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 6: I mean, you could go back a decade earlier. 1082 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:27,520 Speaker 7: This guy who thirty to thirty second birthday today, I'm 1083 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 7: talking about like early to mid twenties. 1084 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 6: He was pulling thousands of people out in an event. 1085 00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:35,520 Speaker 18: To talk about this because a lot of people that 1086 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,479 Speaker 18: have known him a little bit longer, like yourself, saw 1087 00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 18: the evolution of Charlie. 1088 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 11: You know, he was a little bit more rough around 1089 00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 11: the edges at the beginning. 1090 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 18: He's still the same passion and like Warmth and Virncy, 1091 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 18: that was always a constant. 1092 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 11: But you know what I mean, he got more mature, 1093 00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 11: he got softer with younger people. 1094 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 18: He became a big brother figure. What did you see 1095 00:59:57,440 --> 00:59:59,439 Speaker 18: from your vantage point. 1096 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 6: Well, there was he was a very good learner. 1097 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 7: You know a lot of people might not realize just 1098 01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 7: how much he was always trying to grow himself and 1099 01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 7: become smarter, to become wiser to study. When he was 1100 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 7: having this event and at a school where he was 1101 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 7: challenging people to come up to talk about topics where 1102 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 7: they disagree, he wasn't just trying to bring out the 1103 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 7: best of that person who was stepping up to the mic. 1104 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 6: He was hoping that that person stepping up to the. 1105 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:36,680 Speaker 7: Mic was to bring out the best of him, of Charlie, 1106 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 7: and he would learn from that and he would get 1107 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 7: better and stronger for it. So, if you had to 1108 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 7: point to one thing that would have happened over the 1109 01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:47,520 Speaker 7: course of that decade that we were just talking about 1110 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 7: is that he was absorbing so much knowledge. He was 1111 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:56,040 Speaker 7: just becoming so much wiser. And so many of us 1112 01:00:56,120 --> 01:01:01,120 Speaker 7: in life we just get through the day and we 1113 01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 7: have a job, we have a family, we have a routine, 1114 01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 7: and we don't really take a moment. 1115 01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 6: To just take it in to reflect, to be able 1116 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,560 Speaker 6: to pray, to grow. 1117 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 7: And Charlie was doing that in his entire day, all day, 1118 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:20,600 Speaker 7: every day. 1119 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 6: He was absorbing everything. And that's such a great trait. 1120 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 7: And what will happen is by the time you're in 1121 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 7: your early thirties, you're going to be wiser than most 1122 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 7: people who are senior citizens who have just kind of 1123 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:39,840 Speaker 7: dragged themselves through life so never becoming smarter and absorbing 1124 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 7: everything and come in contact with. 1125 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:42,120 Speaker 11: I so agree with that. 1126 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 18: And we are on October fourteenth, obviously Charlie's going to 1127 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,400 Speaker 18: get the Medal of Freedom from President Trump. 1128 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 11: Today.

I remember 1143 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,720 Speaker 10: watching you on Fox and Friends for your very first 1144 01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 10: interview there. I have been following you since I've always 1145 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 10: been a Christian, but I didn't realize that I was 1146 01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 10: faithful but not walking in my faith until. 1147 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 11: You were taken from Wow. 1148 01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:32,760 Speaker 10: Because of you, I went back to church and took 1149 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:35,320 Speaker 10: our children. Because of you, I am a better wife, 1150 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 10: a better mother, a better person. Your words made me 1151 01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 10: realize that the only way for me was through Jesus. 1152 01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 10: Thank you for helping me to realize that my job 1153 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:45,920 Speaker 10: was never to get my children into Harvard. 1154 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 11: It was to get them into Heaven.

That is a line. 1156 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:53,200 Speaker 7: And by the way, it's not too often that somebody's 1157 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 7: first cable news interview is memorable, is inspiring, like the 1158 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:00,800 Speaker 7: first time you do an interview, you might be someone 1159 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 7: intimidated by the setting. You're trying not to mess up. 1160 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 7: You know, I remember the first time I was on 1161 01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:10,040 Speaker 7: Fox and Friends. I probably am the only one who 1162 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 7: remembers the first time that I was on Fox and Friends. 1163 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 11: And meanwhile, you have so many and your wife. 1164 01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:18,680 Speaker 7: No, actually, I'm probably the only one who remembers that hit. 1165 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 7: But you know that there are so many people out 1166 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 7: there who remember the first time that Charlie was on 1167 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,920 Speaker 7: Fox and Friends, Like, how how that never happens? 1168 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1169 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 18: Well, and he got to host Ultimately, he got to 1170 01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:34,800 Speaker 18: host Fox and Friends Weekend with Rachel Campus Campus Duffy, 1171 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:38,440 Speaker 18: Sean Duffy's wife and Fox News host and Charlie hurt. 1172 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:40,400 Speaker 11: And that is actually one of. 1173 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,480 Speaker 18: The clips that has gone viral where his daughter Gigi 1174 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 18: was running up to go see him. 1175 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 11: And there's there's just so many we've been getting with you. 1176 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,800 Speaker 10: We're reading a small handful of them, but I'd say 1177 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 10: we probably had maybe two hundreds or so since this started. 1178 01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 11: Stuff.

I 1187 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:21,360 Speaker 10: just left a Catholic Mass where I lit a prayer 1188 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:22,960 Speaker 10: candle for Charlie and his family. 1189 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 11: That's from Lisa. Thank you, Lisa. 1190 01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:28,040 Speaker 18: I just love the outpouring of support for Charlie. I mean, 1191 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 18: he knew that you loved him. I can tell you 1192 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 18: that he knew, he did know, and he loved this audience, 1193 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 18: and he had a direct connection with you guys, and 1194 01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:40,200 Speaker 18: part of the part of the way that that happened 1195 01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:41,600 Speaker 18: with through these emails. 1196 01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:45,919 Speaker 11: But even I think he would be blown away at. 1197 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,120 Speaker 18: All of this, and so God bless you guys, and 1198 01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:50,480 Speaker 18: thanks for honoring Charlie on his thirty second birthday. I'm 1199 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 18: going to tell you about done with debt, and then 1200 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 18: we're going to continue on with Administrator Lee Zelden of 1201 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:58,040 Speaker 18: the EPA. When you're buried in credit card and loan debt, 1202 01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:00,360 Speaker 18: it's human nature to put it off and say I'll 1203 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 18: deal with it later. If that's you, Here's a hidden 1204 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 18: fact that debt strategy experts at Done with Debt shared 1205 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 18: with me. They discovered a little known strategy that works 1206 01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,440 Speaker 18: in your favor to dramatically reduce or even erase your 1207 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 18: debt altogether. They aggressively engage everyone you owe money to 1208 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 18: this fall. 1209 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:17,040 Speaker 11: And here's why. 1210 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 18: They know which lenders and credit card companies are doing 1211 01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 18: urine accounting and need to cut deals. They even know 1212 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:25,880 Speaker 18: which ones have urine audits and need to get your 1213 01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 18: debt off their books. 1214 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 11: That means you need to get started with Done with 1215 01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:30,439 Speaker 11: Debt now. This fall. 1216 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:33,520 Speaker 18: Done with Debt accomplishes this without bankruptcy or new loans. 1217 01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 18: So go to Done with Debt dot Com and talk 1218 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 18: with one of their specialists for free visit Done with 1219 01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:44,120 Speaker 18: Debt dot Com. Done with Debt dot Com will be 1220 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:45,040 Speaker 18: right back. 1221 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:00,200 Speaker 7: Right. 1222 01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 18: More with Administrator Lee Zel than of the EPA. You 1223 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 18: are the seventeenth administrator of the EPA. 1224 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:06,840 Speaker 6: That's right right. 1225 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:10,919 Speaker 18: I saw that in your X I Guess bio tell 1226 01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,720 Speaker 18: us about the EPA. Because Charlie was not a huge 1227 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 18: fan of the EPA. It was at the elimination of 1228 01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 18: Productivity Agency or what it was like the something like 1229 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:25,200 Speaker 18: job elimination, you know that sort of vibe with Charlie, 1230 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,720 Speaker 18: but you have taken it, and Charlie really loved what 1231 01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 18: you were doing with the EPA because yours is you 1232 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:32,360 Speaker 18: have this growth mindset. Yeah, we want clean water, want 1233 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 18: clean air. We want the cleanest water and the cleanest air. 1234 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 18: But there's a way that you can use this agency 1235 01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:40,800 Speaker 18: and leverage the tools at your disposal to really be 1236 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 18: pro growth, and so tell us about how you're approaching that. 1237 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 6: So one of the. 1238 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 7: Biggest differences between conservatives and liberals is that we believe 1239 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 7: it's not a binary choice between protecting the environment and 1240 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 7: growing the economy. We choose both at the Trump EPA, 1241 01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 7: and that's a difference. And we come in we inherited 1242 01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:01,760 Speaker 7: so many bad decisions that were made during the Biden administration. 1243 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 7: We have basically half of the President's deregulation agenda. Wow, 1244 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:12,320 Speaker 7: and we're talking about trillions of dollars of deregulation in 1245 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:15,440 Speaker 7: one year. We will do more deregulation at the Trump 1246 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 7: EPA than entire federal governments have done across all federal agencies, 1247 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 7: across entire presidencies. Just one of the proposed deregulations alone, 1248 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 7: the proposed recision of the two thousand and nine Obama 1249 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:33,400 Speaker 7: and dangerment finding, if finalized, is the largest act of 1250 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 7: deregulation in the history of the United States. But while 1251 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 7: we're doing that, I'll tell you the best announcements that 1252 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:42,480 Speaker 7: we put out on the one hundred day of President 1253 01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:46,240 Speaker 7: Trump's term in office, our top one hundred environmental accomplishments 1254 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,520 Speaker 7: from those first one hundred days. On the two hundred 1255 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,200 Speaker 7: day of President Trump's term in office, our next top 1256 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:55,800 Speaker 7: one hundred environmental accomplishments from those next one hundred days. 1257 01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:59,480 Speaker 7: And we're getting people back in the office or right 1258 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 7: size in the agency going through reorganization. When I came in, 1259 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 7: there was at over sixteen thousand employees were going down 1260 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 7: to just over twelve thousand, and that reduction we will 1261 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 7: actually get more done. Of course, you will with just 1262 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:16,720 Speaker 7: over twelve thousand than the Biden EPA did with just 1263 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:17,759 Speaker 7: over sixteen thousand. 1264 01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 6: It's about priorities. 1265 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:20,719 Speaker 11: Well, it's also you get rid of the whiners. 1266 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 18: You get rid of the people that hold you back 1267 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,080 Speaker 18: and that are actually on agenda and want to want 1268 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 18: to contribute to what you're doing, and you call it 1269 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:31,000 Speaker 18: the Great America American Comeback Initiative. 1270 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:32,920 Speaker 11: So what is that to you? Is that? 1271 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,920 Speaker 7: So President Trump often talks about Pillar one, clean air, land, 1272 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:38,600 Speaker 7: and water for all Americans. 1273 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:40,480 Speaker 6: It's a five pillar agenda. 1274 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 7: Number two is unleashing energy, Dominance thirty is advancing cooperative 1275 01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:49,120 Speaker 7: federalism and permitting reform. Pillar four is about making America 1276 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:51,880 Speaker 7: the AI capital the world. And Pillar five is protecting 1277 01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:55,599 Speaker 7: bring back American auto jobs. These are all part of 1278 01:08:56,000 --> 01:09:00,280 Speaker 7: the Trump mandate. President Trump campaigned on delivering on all 1279 01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 7: these promises, and that's what powering the great merits. 1280 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 18: That's important. People don't understand the EPA enough. But you 1281 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 18: can either cause a lot of damage, yes, or you 1282 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,759 Speaker 18: can be a good friend yes to product productive people. 1283 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 11: Because like we don't have that thought in our minds 1284 01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,800 Speaker 11: instantly when we think about the EPA. Charlie certainly didn't. 1285 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 11: But he trusted you to do it and he knew 1286 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 11: that you were the right man for the job. Did 1287 01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:28,519 Speaker 11: Charlie and you interacted all during the transition. Was he 1288 01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 11: encouraging you to do this? Oh? 1289 01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:31,679 Speaker 6: Yeah, no doubt. 1290 01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:37,400 Speaker 7: He was engaged during the transition process and he had 1291 01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 7: a lot of ideas. We're very much in contact over 1292 01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 7: the campaign and the different ways to be able to 1293 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 7: make sure that President Trump was elected, and he had 1294 01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 7: a Republican Congress to work with him to implement that agenda. 1295 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:55,560 Speaker 7: But when the election came and went, Charlie didn't just disengage. 1296 01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:57,200 Speaker 6: He became more engaged. 1297 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:59,719 Speaker 7: To make sure that the right people were coming into 1298 01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:03,439 Speaker 7: govern man, that they were focused on the priorities of 1299 01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:06,320 Speaker 7: this president. They weren't gonna What we don't want to 1300 01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 7: do is repeat any mistake in the past where the 1301 01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:11,599 Speaker 7: wrong people come in they're trying to sabotage the president. 1302 01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1303 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,439 Speaker 18: No, I didn't mean to cut you off about to 1304 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,479 Speaker 18: welcome back National Radio.

And you know something that obviously 1338 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:04,639 Speaker 7: Charlie confronted head on, especially when he was on these 1339 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:05,640 Speaker 7: college campuses. 1340 01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:10,200 Speaker 6: And I've been experiencing this at the EPA, is that there. 1341 01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:15,080 Speaker 7: Are terms words used in the environmental space that the 1342 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 7: Left is used for organizing that get particular definitions that 1343 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 7: might sound good on paper, but in reality is not 1344 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:28,320 Speaker 7: what you think you're getting. The terms like environmental justice, 1345 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:34,439 Speaker 7: climate justice, climate change, they get a definition, and you 1346 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:38,040 Speaker 7: might think that you are supportive of the concept, but 1347 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:42,839 Speaker 7: actually the congressional Democrats who are pushing those terms aren't 1348 01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 7: doing exactly what that definition says. A environmental justice still 1349 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:48,759 Speaker 7: say hey, there's a community that's. 1350 01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:51,800 Speaker 6: Been left behind the need help. Okay, like, well, well 1351 01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 6: we all agree. 1352 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:54,400 Speaker 7: If there's a community that's been left behind it needs help, 1353 01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:57,439 Speaker 7: let's let's all help them. But actually what they're using 1354 01:12:57,439 --> 01:12:59,960 Speaker 7: the term environmental justice for is to get tens of 1355 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:04,519 Speaker 7: billions of dollars appropriated. So they're left wing activist NGO friends, 1356 01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:09,400 Speaker 7: they're well connected former Biden and Obama officials and Democratic donors, 1357 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 7: so that they can just eat at the taxpayer till 1358 01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 7: and just waste away money with a reduced agency oversight 1359 01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:22,040 Speaker 7: in the name of climate justice. The by an EPA 1360 01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 7: gives fifty million dollars to a group called Climate Justice Alliance. 1361 01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:29,040 Speaker 7: They say the Climate justice runs through a free Palestine. 1362 01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:31,040 Speaker 6: There are a lot of Americans who would say. 1363 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:36,040 Speaker 7: That we shouldn't be spending fifty million dollars on an 1364 01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 7: activist ngo like that American tax dollars or in climate change. 1365 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:44,040 Speaker 7: You have people who they'll build support with their definition, 1366 01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:46,960 Speaker 7: but then they'll try to get these police cross to 1367 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:50,600 Speaker 7: have more control over the lives of more of this citizenry. 1368 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:54,040 Speaker 7: They will try to banker people who can least afford it. 1369 01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 7: And I just think it's really important that we as 1370 01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:02,720 Speaker 7: conservatives are minded to take advantage of all these opportunities 1371 01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 7: to get out of our comfort zone. Talk to people 1372 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 7: who maybe haven't supported us or understood us in the past. 1373 01:14:09,160 --> 01:14:12,599 Speaker 7: Maybe meet them where they are and talk to them 1374 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:16,240 Speaker 7: about these important issues because they're getting fed what I 1375 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:20,800 Speaker 7: would say, are lives that are deceptive on purpose, and 1376 01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:23,840 Speaker 7: it results in abuse of power and and people getting 1377 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:24,599 Speaker 7: taken for granted. 1378 01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,160 Speaker 18: I think that's really well said.

But you 1490 01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:24,559 Speaker 18: know you and Charlie had a close relationship. You you 1491 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:28,160 Speaker 18: stayed in constant communication. You know Charlie was based in Arizona. 1492 01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 18: You're just in Utah. One stayed away. Explain what this, 1493 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:35,360 Speaker 18: this whole last month and change has meant to you. 1494 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:38,519 Speaker 18: It's his thirty second birthday today, the floor is you're 1495 01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 18: a senator. 1496 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:39,559 Speaker 1: First of all. 1497 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:42,120 Speaker 26: Happy birthday, Charlie, and thanks to all of you who 1498 01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:46,960 Speaker 26: are keeping his legacy moving forward. Like the last last 1499 01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:50,160 Speaker 26: month has been tough. Not only did they take away 1500 01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 26: a dear friend of mine, a dear friend of the 1501 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:56,840 Speaker 26: American people, but they took away a leader, husband, a father, 1502 01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:02,919 Speaker 26: as somebody who had immense potential and destiny. I'm absolutely 1503 01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:05,000 Speaker 26: convinced he would have been president of the United States, 1504 01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:08,439 Speaker 26: probably within it a decade or so, which at Charlie's 1505 01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:11,679 Speaker 26: age still would have made him an exceptionally young president. 1506 01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:16,160 Speaker 1: But this happened almost in my backyard. 1507 01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,400 Speaker 26: UVU is just a couple of miles from where I live, 1508 01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:23,000 Speaker 26: and it's not the kind. 1509 01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:24,280 Speaker 1: Of place where that's supposed to happen. 1510 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 26: I remember, just a few weeks earlier, Charlie called me 1511 01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:29,800 Speaker 26: one day, right after he had scheduled that particular visit, 1512 01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:33,600 Speaker 26: and said, Mike, I want you there be with me. 1513 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,360 Speaker 26: Come do the event with me, And I was really 1514 01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:37,960 Speaker 26: excited about it. I said, tell me the date, pulled 1515 01:21:38,040 --> 01:21:40,280 Speaker 26: up my calendar and realized the Senate would be in session, 1516 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:42,080 Speaker 26: I said, I will be there if I possibly can. 1517 01:21:42,640 --> 01:21:44,679 Speaker 26: There is a chance, though, that there will be votes 1518 01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:46,200 Speaker 26: that have to be cast that day that. 1519 01:21:46,160 --> 01:21:46,800 Speaker 1: I can't miss. 1520 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:48,679 Speaker 26: That turned out to be the case, and a few 1521 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 26: hours before the event, the night before I texted him 1522 01:21:51,880 --> 01:21:53,559 Speaker 26: and said, there's no chance I'm going to be able 1523 01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 26: to get back for this. He texted me that day 1524 01:21:56,400 --> 01:21:58,200 Speaker 26: just as he was about to get to the event, 1525 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:01,639 Speaker 26: telling me how excited he was for it. So looks 1526 01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:05,080 Speaker 26: a huge loss, But it's up to the rest of us, 1527 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,360 Speaker 26: those of us who knew him and had such admiration 1528 01:22:07,439 --> 01:22:10,680 Speaker 26: for him, to keep his message moving forward, to make 1529 01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:12,880 Speaker 26: sure that his words echo throughout the ages. 1530 01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:16,000 Speaker 18: Yeah, I was not there that day. I actually was 1531 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:19,519 Speaker 18: originally going to go, but Charlie said, oh, stay back 1532 01:22:19,560 --> 01:22:22,120 Speaker 18: with your family and guest host the show. So I 1533 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:25,360 Speaker 18: guess those did the Charlie Kirk Show that day, and 1534 01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:28,960 Speaker 18: Blake unfortunately was there, and you know, so was Jason 1535 01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:32,679 Speaker 18: Chafitz and so many friends and so many staffers that'll 1536 01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:34,000 Speaker 18: that will live with that. 1537 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:37,360 Speaker 11: But today we're kind of honoring this. 1538 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:42,559 Speaker 18: What what President Trump raced back from the Middle East 1539 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 18: to do, which is to honor Charlie with the highest 1540 01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,560 Speaker 18: civilian honor that our country can bestow on somebody, the 1541 01:22:48,080 --> 01:22:51,920 Speaker 18: Medal Freedom and the Presidential Metal Freedom. And you know, 1542 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:55,599 Speaker 18: you see what Charlie meant to the President. And you know, 1543 01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 18: we got a chance to spend a little time last 1544 01:22:57,479 --> 01:23:02,240 Speaker 18: night in so many friends, I mean, Charlie. We talked 1545 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:04,320 Speaker 18: about this earlier. Charlie was a man of the people. 1546 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:07,719 Speaker 18: He was always about the grassroots, always about the muscular class, 1547 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,560 Speaker 18: sort of reviled the elite. 1548 01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 11: In a sense. You know, he was kind of a 1549 01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 11: populist in that way. But you go around this town 1550 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 11: right now and it's like the. 1551 01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:21,960 Speaker 18: Who's who, and they all loved Charlie and his friendships 1552 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:25,040 Speaker 18: and his network extended to so many of the most 1553 01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:27,200 Speaker 18: powerful people in the world right now, and you're seeing 1554 01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:29,160 Speaker 18: that on full display with the President of the United 1555 01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:34,040 Speaker 18: States after brokering a peace deal in Israel, Gaza flying. 1556 01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:35,400 Speaker 11: Back, racing back for this. 1557 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 18: I guess just reflect on the enormity of that and 1558 01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:42,880 Speaker 18: what that says about the impact Charlie's had, Well. 1559 01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:44,920 Speaker 26: It's a huge thing, and it's one of countless data 1560 01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:49,439 Speaker 26: points that we can identify since September tenth of where 1561 01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:52,559 Speaker 26: the entire world has reacted. You've got foreign heads of 1562 01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:55,920 Speaker 26: state recording tributes to him. You've got the President of 1563 01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 26: the United States flying to Arizona the following week for 1564 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:02,519 Speaker 26: that beautiful memorial service where the President himself and many 1565 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:07,599 Speaker 26: members of his senior team also spoke. He's brought together 1566 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,479 Speaker 26: all kinds of people, and I think that's one of 1567 01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:12,760 Speaker 26: the reasons why I'm optimistic that his legacy will be 1568 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:14,720 Speaker 26: a lasting one, and part because he's got such a 1569 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:18,960 Speaker 26: great team of people who knew him really, really well. 1570 01:24:18,960 --> 01:24:19,360 Speaker 11: And you. 1571 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,000 Speaker 1: You know, because you remember because you were. 1572 01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 26: There for a lot of these speeches, and you're going 1573 01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 26: to be able to recall with an accurate degree of detail, 1574 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,840 Speaker 26: which Charlie Kirk message fits the moment. 1575 01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:35,360 Speaker 18: Yeah, I think we all have this, like Arlie, Charlie 1576 01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 18: GPT running in this People. 1577 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 11: Want us to make a literal Charlie GPC.

I'm not saying you can't have free speech. 1632 01:27:01,560 --> 01:27:04,960 Speaker 18: But this is like October seventh, it's not even a 1633 01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:06,639 Speaker 18: month out after Charlie's murder. 1634 01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 6: Right. 1635 01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:10,479 Speaker 26: Look, we ourselves, of course can't do anything about it 1636 01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:14,120 Speaker 26: in terms of what his future looks like there that's 1637 01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 26: not up to us, not up to any government. Their 1638 01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:19,760 Speaker 26: speech is protected by the First Amendment, and I'll fight 1639 01:27:20,400 --> 01:27:22,800 Speaker 26: to the death to make sure that they've got that. 1640 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:24,600 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that it's a good idea. 1641 01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:27,719 Speaker 26: Just because you can legally and because you're protected doesn't 1642 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:30,759 Speaker 26: mean that certain things are a good idea. And publishing 1643 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 26: something like this, which I regard as just the next 1644 01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:41,160 Speaker 26: iteration in a long series of inflammatory statements and inflammatory 1645 01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:45,280 Speaker 26: images like this one, they don't contribute to a good environment. 1646 01:27:45,640 --> 01:27:50,639 Speaker 26: Calling people fascist Nazis, this kind of imagery is something 1647 01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:51,559 Speaker 26: that they've been doing for. 1648 01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:51,960 Speaker 1: A long time. 1649 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:54,200 Speaker 26: In fact, they did that just a couple of days 1650 01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:57,880 Speaker 26: before Charlie Kirk spoke at UVU. They referred to me 1651 01:27:58,200 --> 01:28:03,320 Speaker 26: and Riverton Trent's Stags basically as Nazis, saying that we 1652 01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:06,840 Speaker 26: were bringing about the vhy regime at the United States 1653 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:07,719 Speaker 26: or words of that effect. 1654 01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:10,600 Speaker 1: A couple of days later, remember their editorial board was. 1655 01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 26: Asked about it and he said, oh, oh, those guys 1656 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 26: are totally fascists, and you know, look, they're constitutionally protected 1657 01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 26: and the right to say that, but it does create 1658 01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:21,360 Speaker 26: a certain atmosphere. Now this a few weeks after that 1659 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:26,639 Speaker 26: assassination occurs with the red bandanas around the neck with 1660 01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:27,559 Speaker 26: the hole in the head. 1661 01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:31,439 Speaker 1: Comment, that's really really pushing it. 1662 01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:33,840 Speaker 10: But listen, so we want to we have a clip 1663 01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 10: we want to play this year from when you came 1664 01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:40,320 Speaker 10: on our show last March and March. Yes, yeah, last 1665 01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:43,439 Speaker 10: last March. This one of these topics came up. Let's 1666 01:28:43,439 --> 01:28:44,719 Speaker 10: play clip one fifty six. 1667 01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:48,519 Speaker 4: Senator, what do you make of this rise of left 1668 01:28:48,520 --> 01:28:52,919 Speaker 4: wing terrorism targeted at Tesla and Elon Musk My fear, Senator, 1669 01:28:53,439 --> 01:28:55,600 Speaker 4: And I hope I'm wrong, and let's say stay in 1670 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 4: prayer that I'm wrong. That someone is going to get 1671 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 4: shot the same way that Steve Scalisee got and god 1672 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:01,719 Speaker 4: forbid killed. 1673 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:05,639 Speaker 27: This is what domestic terrorism does. This is what domestic 1674 01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:09,439 Speaker 27: terrorism looks like. And they very much want people to 1675 01:29:09,560 --> 01:29:12,440 Speaker 27: be in fear. That's why they do it. They understand 1676 01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 27: that people understand that there's a risk of bodily harm 1677 01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:19,719 Speaker 27: or even death in these kinds of circumstances, and that's 1678 01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:21,160 Speaker 27: designed to induce fear. 1679 01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 18: One of the worst things about what happened to Charlie 1680 01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:34,799 Speaker 18: is just how prophetic he was about raising the alarm 1681 01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 18: about the rise of left wing terrorism and maggionism. What 1682 01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 18: I mean, I find this chilling to even hear him 1683 01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:42,919 Speaker 18: say that those words senatively. 1684 01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:46,960 Speaker 11: What does that? How does that strike you given what's happened. 1685 01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:50,720 Speaker 26: First of all, I remember that that interview. Now they 1686 01:29:50,760 --> 01:29:55,599 Speaker 26: play the clip, and I remember just finding his words 1687 01:29:55,680 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 26: chilling when he made that comment, realizing he's probably right, 1688 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:03,920 Speaker 26: this is the sort of thing that happens. 1689 01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:06,960 Speaker 1: So I'm glad you played that for us. 1690 01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:10,120 Speaker 26: But one of the most troubling things that has happened 1691 01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:15,240 Speaker 26: since Charlie's death has been the extent to which there 1692 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:22,160 Speaker 26: are people all over America, people in responsible positions, leftists 1693 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:27,519 Speaker 26: who openly celebrated, openly applauded what happened, wishing on death 1694 01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 26: for more conservatives. 1695 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:30,400 Speaker 1: I did not expect to see this. 1696 01:30:30,479 --> 01:30:34,799 Speaker 26: Look you think back other times when other prominent national figures, 1697 01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:40,479 Speaker 26: whether officeholders or otherwise, have been assassinated Martin Luther King, 1698 01:30:41,280 --> 01:30:45,519 Speaker 26: John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, the assassination attempt on 1699 01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:47,559 Speaker 26: Ronald Reagan, just to name a few. 1700 01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:49,639 Speaker 1: You did have. 1701 01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:53,519 Speaker 26: Sure a couple of praises here or there would say 1702 01:30:53,560 --> 01:30:58,920 Speaker 26: something stupid, but they were immediately dismissed as not being 1703 01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:02,559 Speaker 26: responsible members of society. This time around, people were openly 1704 01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:06,439 Speaker 26: celebrating it, and they were not rejected by their own 1705 01:31:06,680 --> 01:31:11,080 Speaker 26: and that hearkens back to this poll, the NPR PBS 1706 01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:13,920 Speaker 26: Mayris poll that came out about two weeks ago, I 1707 01:31:13,920 --> 01:31:17,080 Speaker 26: believe it was August first, saying that fifty five percent 1708 01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 26: of leftist in America believe that it's morally acceptable to 1709 01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,640 Speaker 26: murder the current president of the United States, Dolalg J. 1710 01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:23,080 Speaker 6: Trump. 1711 01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:23,880 Speaker 1: That is just chilling. 1712 01:31:24,320 --> 01:31:24,960 Speaker 11: It's chilling. 1713 01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:28,800 Speaker 18: And by the way, there was a Economist Yugov poll 1714 01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:32,479 Speaker 18: conducted a few days after the assassination that found thirty 1715 01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:35,439 Speaker 18: percent of eighteen to thirty nine year old self. 1716 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:38,200 Speaker 11: Described progressives or liberals said. 1717 01:31:37,960 --> 01:31:41,480 Speaker 18: That political violence was justified to achieve political ends. 1718 01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:44,760 Speaker 11: We're going to hold right there. We've got more with 1719 01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:48,240 Speaker 11: Senator Mike Lee. I'm going to quickly tell you about 1720 01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:52,000 Speaker 11: Patriot mobile, all right, we're at a break. 1721 01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:56,760 Speaker 18: We're going to break, Hi digress, We'll do it after 1722 01:31:56,760 --> 01:31:58,000 Speaker 18: the break. 1723 01:32:07,680 --> 01:32:10,160 Speaker 26: All right, without thinking that in so many ways he 1724 01:32:10,280 --> 01:32:14,320 Speaker 26: was a protege of Rush, I'm quite certain in think. 1725 01:32:14,360 --> 01:32:17,479 Speaker 26: In fact, I think I recall Charlie saying that he 1726 01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:22,120 Speaker 26: was an avid Rush listener long before Charlie Kirk's name 1727 01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:26,719 Speaker 26: became prominent. And I'm also confident that those voices around Charlie, 1728 01:32:27,240 --> 01:32:30,240 Speaker 26: even before he started listening to Rush, were themselves influenced 1729 01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:32,960 Speaker 26: by Rush Limbaugh. So it's good to have Charlie carrying 1730 01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:35,639 Speaker 26: on that legacy and others carrying that forward even after 1731 01:32:35,720 --> 01:32:36,320 Speaker 26: Charlie's going. 1732 01:32:36,640 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, a lot of people have been saying that, you know, 1733 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:40,920 Speaker 10: they thought he was going to be president one day, 1734 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:43,040 Speaker 10: And I guess what we can say is he's something 1735 01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:45,559 Speaker 10: greater than a president actually, which is he's a murdyerr 1736 01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:47,439 Speaker 10: m wow. 1737 01:32:48,280 --> 01:32:51,840 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, in his legacy, you know, Charlie. 1738 01:32:51,840 --> 01:32:55,479 Speaker 18: It's funny because on my first interview that I did 1739 01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:59,920 Speaker 18: after Charlie's assassination, it was actually with Laura Ingram, was 1740 01:33:00,560 --> 01:33:04,040 Speaker 18: about an hour before Erica gave her first address, and 1741 01:33:04,120 --> 01:33:06,559 Speaker 18: I said that line, I said, you know, the blood 1742 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:09,760 Speaker 18: of the martyrs is the seed of the Church. And 1743 01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:13,720 Speaker 18: I actually had never heard Charlie say that. It's just 1744 01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:15,960 Speaker 18: one of those things I had never heard him say. 1745 01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:21,519 Speaker 18: But then Erica, you know, she Charlie was an avid 1746 01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:25,880 Speaker 18: journal maker, takeer so he left a ton of journal entries, 1747 01:33:25,920 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 18: and she never looked at them. It was obviously that 1748 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:30,920 Speaker 18: would have been weird. And but when he died, she 1749 01:33:31,720 --> 01:33:35,720 Speaker 18: looked at some of those journals and she found a 1750 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:37,000 Speaker 18: page and she showed. 1751 01:33:36,720 --> 01:33:37,080 Speaker 11: It to me. 1752 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:39,519 Speaker 18: She took a picture of it, sent me a picture 1753 01:33:39,560 --> 01:33:42,719 Speaker 18: of it, and it said in Charlie's chicken scratch. Charlie 1754 01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,240 Speaker 18: did not have great penmanship, that was one thing, but 1755 01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:47,599 Speaker 18: it said, the blood of the martyrs is the seed 1756 01:33:47,640 --> 01:33:52,439 Speaker 18: of the Church. And my heart about dropped out of 1757 01:33:52,479 --> 01:33:58,719 Speaker 18: my chest because, you know, just again, the little Charlie 1758 01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:02,320 Speaker 18: was incredibly in tune, I think with the Holy Spirit. 1759 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:06,599 Speaker 11: He was in tune with God, and you know, he just. 1760 01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 18: He could he had a sense for where things were 1761 01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:11,960 Speaker 18: going and where things you know, and I think there's 1762 01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:15,080 Speaker 18: these little these little Easter eggs, these god winks all 1763 01:34:15,120 --> 01:34:17,080 Speaker 18: over his life when you when you advise to see it. 1764 01:34:17,120 --> 01:34:20,760 Speaker 11: And anyways, we're going to Welcome back National Radio.

So where 1801 01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:12,760 Speaker 18: are we at should we care? You know, this is 1802 01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:15,639 Speaker 18: the kind of story inside the Beltwegh, story that Charlie 1803 01:36:15,640 --> 01:36:19,439 Speaker 18: would usually not care that much about. But Joe's point 1804 01:36:19,479 --> 01:36:21,760 Speaker 18: was that you will start feeling this in wider and 1805 01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:24,240 Speaker 18: wider concentric circles outside of the Imperial Capital. 1806 01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:26,679 Speaker 11: What's the status? Are we going to turn the lights 1807 01:36:26,720 --> 01:36:27,679 Speaker 11: back on anytime soon. 1808 01:36:28,160 --> 01:36:31,920 Speaker 26: Look, they'll come back on undoubtedly at some point. Nobody 1809 01:36:31,960 --> 01:36:35,400 Speaker 26: knows exactly when. We're in uncharted territory here because the 1810 01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:38,759 Speaker 26: Democrats controlling not one. 1811 01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:40,200 Speaker 1: Of the three political levers. 1812 01:36:40,200 --> 01:36:43,480 Speaker 26: There are two political branches of government, the executive and legislative. 1813 01:36:43,560 --> 01:36:46,439 Speaker 1: The legislative has two pieces, the Senate and the House. 1814 01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:51,000 Speaker 26: Between those three pieces, the Democrats don't control the House 1815 01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:54,120 Speaker 26: or the Senate or the White House for them to 1816 01:36:54,240 --> 01:36:57,040 Speaker 26: issue the kinds of demands that they issued in connection 1817 01:36:57,200 --> 01:37:02,000 Speaker 26: with leading up to culminating in this shutdown shirt. They're 1818 01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:03,800 Speaker 26: not in control of any of the three branches, and 1819 01:37:03,880 --> 01:37:07,360 Speaker 26: yet they are not even willing to accept Biden. 1820 01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:08,240 Speaker 1: Era spending levels. 1821 01:37:08,479 --> 01:37:11,320 Speaker 26: Now, look, that was I bristled in response to how 1822 01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:14,120 Speaker 26: generous an offer that was on our part. I understand 1823 01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:16,200 Speaker 26: why we did it, but it was probably an overly 1824 01:37:16,240 --> 01:37:21,400 Speaker 26: generous offer. They still wouldn't accept that. They're so accustomed 1825 01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:24,960 Speaker 26: to getting their wave the mainstream news media covering for 1826 01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:29,080 Speaker 26: them and Republicans getting attacked every time something like this happens, 1827 01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:32,439 Speaker 26: regardless of who did what, that they think that they're 1828 01:37:32,479 --> 01:37:36,280 Speaker 26: immune from the laws of physics and mathematics. But it's 1829 01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:38,840 Speaker 26: not going to end well for them, not this time, 1830 01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:42,960 Speaker 26: not with this president. He's not messing around. And so look, 1831 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:44,800 Speaker 26: when we look at shutdowns, we had to think of 1832 01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:47,080 Speaker 26: how many things have gone wrong along the way. A 1833 01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:48,920 Speaker 26: lot of people point, in fact, we're supposed to PAS 1834 01:37:48,960 --> 01:37:51,799 Speaker 26: twelve separate spending bills, each in a different category of government, 1835 01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:54,080 Speaker 26: so you can't get to an all or nothing moment 1836 01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:55,519 Speaker 26: like this and the whole thing shuts down. 1837 01:37:55,560 --> 01:37:58,839 Speaker 1: That's true. Even long before we get to that, something 1838 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:01,240 Speaker 1: else has broken down. By the time we can get into. 1839 01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 26: This posture where the federal government gets so big, so expensive, 1840 01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:08,040 Speaker 26: with such a long arm reaching into so many aspects 1841 01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:12,479 Speaker 26: of your lives, that the mere threat of not having 1842 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 26: the whole thing funded all at once can cause widespread panic. 1843 01:38:16,320 --> 01:38:18,120 Speaker 26: A government that can do that to you is a 1844 01:38:18,160 --> 01:38:20,320 Speaker 26: government that's gotten too big, too expensive. 1845 01:38:20,400 --> 01:38:21,960 Speaker 11: Well, I love that. 1846 01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:23,720 Speaker 18: I feel like that's the best place where we can 1847 01:38:23,840 --> 01:38:28,680 Speaker 18: leave this conversation. Because Charlie's first big popular slogan that 1848 01:38:28,720 --> 01:38:33,000 Speaker 18: ever went viral was big gov sucks, and it still sucks. 1849 01:38:33,320 --> 01:38:36,479 Speaker 18: And Charlie wanted a limited government that was strong enough 1850 01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:40,400 Speaker 18: to affect the people's you know it will that they 1851 01:38:40,600 --> 01:38:43,479 Speaker 18: voted for. But that was you know, small enough that 1852 01:38:43,520 --> 01:38:46,280 Speaker 18: it didn't impede our freedoms. And so I mean, I think, 1853 01:38:46,400 --> 01:38:49,439 Speaker 18: you know, Charlie would say, hold the line, senator, and 1854 01:38:50,080 --> 01:38:52,640 Speaker 18: you know, fight for us, don't give in. And I 1855 01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:56,320 Speaker 18: think that's the fighting spirit in some ways that has 1856 01:38:57,320 --> 01:39:01,000 Speaker 18: fully saturated. It seems the high levers of power, at 1857 01:39:01,040 --> 01:39:03,479 Speaker 18: least within the Admin. We've got some legislators that need 1858 01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:08,240 Speaker 18: some work. You are not one of them. But this offense, offense, fight, fight, fight, 1859 01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:12,600 Speaker 18: this this pushing forward a muscular Republican Party and conservative 1860 01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:14,479 Speaker 18: movement that Charlie so desperately wanted. 1861 01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:15,800 Speaker 11: You're seeing that on display here. 1862 01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:21,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's just it's amazing to see the flood of love, 1863 01:39:21,960 --> 01:39:25,639 Speaker 10: the flood of support today. Happy birthday, Happy birthday, Happy birthday, 1864 01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:27,080 Speaker 10: Happy heavenly birthday. 1865 01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:28,840 Speaker 11: Is a very common one that a lot of them say. 1866 01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:33,240 Speaker 10: And you know, we Charlie adored all of you, and 1867 01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:36,639 Speaker 10: it's great to see that they all adored Charlie. And 1868 01:39:36,760 --> 01:39:38,720 Speaker 10: I just I guess I encourage everyone to tune in 1869 01:39:38,920 --> 01:39:40,439 Speaker 10: at four, we'll have the Medal of Freedom. 1870 01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:43,759 Speaker 18: We are going to have a birthday celebration for Charlie Kirk, 1871 01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:48,200 Speaker 18: unlike he would have ever imagined. It's bittersweet, it's going 1872 01:39:48,280 --> 01:39:50,880 Speaker 18: to be emotional. I hope all of you will join us. 1873 01:39:51,040 --> 01:39:53,400 Speaker 18: It's now going to be in the Rose Garden. President 1874 01:39:53,400 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 18: Trump has moved it, so we will see you there 1875 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:57,760 Speaker 18: at four o'clock, along with Senator Mike Lee and so 1876 01:39:57,800 --> 01:40:00,360 Speaker 18: many of other of our friends and Charlie's deer friends. 1877 01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:03,519 Speaker 18: Thank you for joining us on Charlie's thirty second birthday. 1878 01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:05,479 Speaker 18: We'll talk to you tomorrow from the White House.
