He was a 52 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 5: political force. He was strong, smart, positive and convincing, and 53 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 5: he was opening young minds. Charlie Kirk was the less 54 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 5: worse nightmare. And so they killed him. And what's worse, 55 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 5: they celebrated that murder. When someone shows you who they are, 56 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 5: believe them. Democrats have now made it Bonalley clear who 57 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 5: exactly they are. They're the party of violence, They're the 58 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 5: party of murder. They're the party of evil. And they 59 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 5: reminded us of that fact yesterday. The late Charlie Kirk 60 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 5: once said, very difficult to say, late, but late Charlie 61 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 5: Kirk once said, quoting you can tell a lot about 62 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 5: a person by how they react when someone dies. Now, 63 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 5: this is so disgusting. I think it needs to be 64 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 5: played over and over again so that people truly understand 65 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 5: the level of evil and hate that we're dealing with 66 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 5: in America right now. 67 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 3: On the left. 68 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 5: You're about to watch some of a live feed. Now, 69 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 5: I was watching this live. This is a live feed 70 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 5: from the platform TMZ and entertainment platform nonetheless, but listen carefully. 71 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 5: You can hear cheers and clapping enjoy in the background. 72 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 5: Just as Harvey Levin announces that President Trump confirmed. 73 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk was dead. Listen carefully to the cheers. 74 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 10: So the news conference is scheduled for three o'clock and 75 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 10: Utah time, which is two o'clock Pacific, five o'clock Eastern. Janet, go, 76 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 10: go to have somebody look at the fox Trump Trump 77 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 10: just posted that Charlie Kirk is dead. 78 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 3: So that was live. 79 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 11: Now. 80 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 3: You can hear the cheering in the background. 81 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 5: But then a very pathetic attempt to explain away what 82 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 5: is so obvious to the rest of us, again a 83 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 5: classic leftists. What you heard, folks, you didn't really hear, right, 84 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 5: Harvey Levin and TMZ. 85 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 10: And they were laughing, they were clapping, and you could 86 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 10: hear it out here. And we want to make a 87 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 10: couple of things clear. One is that I know these 88 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 10: people and they were not laughing. They were not reacting 89 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 10: that way about Charlie Kirk's assassination. 90 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 3: That's a lie. You are a pathetic liar, Harvey Levin. 91 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 5: I watched that you were waiting to see if it 92 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 5: was confirmed that he was dead. The uproar happens, and 93 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 5: immediately they tell you Trump posted on true Social that 94 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk was dead. That is a lie, Harvey. You're 95 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 5: going to go to hell for lying like that. Let's 96 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 5: be clear. TMZ was forced to apologize because they got caught. 97 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 5: The Democrat Party media showed us exactly who they are 98 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 5: and what they're made of. 99 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: Their message was loud. 100 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 5: And clear yesterday that Charlie Kirk had it coming, that 101 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 5: he was asking for this, and that this brutal murder 102 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 5: was somehow his own fault. And guess what, it got 103 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 5: worse and worse throughout the afternoon and into the evening, 104 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 5: and more horrendous in the minutes before Charlie Kirk even died. 105 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 3: Listen. 106 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 12: But following up what was just said, he's been one 107 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 12: of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures in this 108 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 12: who is constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate 109 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 12: speech or sort of aimed at certain groups. 110 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 3: And I always go back to. 111 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 12: Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to 112 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 12: hateful actions. 113 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 5: Oh, Matt doubt that was so vile and disgusting that 114 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 5: after putting out a statement, MSNBC had no choice but 115 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 5: to fire that some of the sorry Matt Dowd, or 116 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 5: maybe this ridiculous comment is why they parted ways with Dowd. 117 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 13: In which the shooting like this happens. 118 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 12: Yeah, and again emphasize what you just emphasized. We don't 119 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 12: know any of the full details of this that. We 120 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 12: don't know if this was the supporter shooting their gun 121 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 12: off in celebration or so. 122 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: We have no idea of. 123 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 5: Supporter shooting a gun off and celebration. It was a 124 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,239 Speaker 5: high high caliber, long range rifle. 125 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 3: It was a hit. 126 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 5: It's probably coordinated hit, but we don't know that yet 127 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 5: anyway for sure, But we're going to continue to listen. 128 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 5: That's not the only prize MSNBC gave us. Within minutes 129 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 5: of Charlie Kirk being shot. With this condition still unknown, 130 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 5: MSNBC ghoul Katie Turr just couldn't help herself. 131 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 13: After one of the DOGE employees was allegedly attacked in Washington, DC. 132 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 13: That's what Donald Trump used as a justification to send 133 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 13: in federal troops into Washington, DC to get things under 134 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 13: control the carjacking situation. 135 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 14: He used that. 136 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 13: And I know it's hard to predict the future, Mark, 137 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 13: but you can imagine the administration using this as a 138 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 13: justification for something, using. 139 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 5: That a young man shot, and that's where her thoughts 140 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 5: go vile, disgusting. There are no words for garbage like that. 141 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 5: I say, scrap the whole operation. They've got blood on 142 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 5: their hands. Just shut the whole thing down, MSNBC. But 143 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 5: no more or less than the dirty politicians who've convinced 144 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 5: and condoned this violence for years. 145 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 3: They know it, which is why their. 146 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 5: Immediate reaction, of course, was to deflect and blame MAGA 147 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 5: for the violence they themselves keep perpetrating. 148 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 9: And I think there are people who are fomenting it 149 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 9: in this country. I think the President's rhetoric often foments it. 150 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 9: We've seen the January sixth rioters, who clearly, you know, 151 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 9: have tripped a new era of political violence. 152 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 3: Kidding me? JB. 153 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 5: Pritzker, are you kidding me? Fomented? Got it? Maga's fault, 154 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 5: Trump's fault. 155 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 3: But wait, there's more, Oh. 156 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,719 Speaker 14: Please, you know right? 157 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,479 Speaker 3: Why don't you start with the present in the United States. 158 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 14: Right and every ugly mean he has posted in every 159 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 14: ugly word. 160 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 5: You have no soul, Democrat, you have no no heart, 161 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 5: no soul. If Pocahontas wants to point out the hatred 162 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 5: that's been created, look no further than the House floor 163 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 5: when Colorado congress Woman Lauren Bulberg called for a moment 164 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 5: of prayer for someone bruly shot just for his political opinions. Democrat, 165 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 5: let the world know just how evil they truly are. 166 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 5: You can hear them protesting no in the background as 167 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 5: Speaker Johnson tries to maintain order. But the Democrat Party 168 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 5: just can't help itself and the media they own no better. 169 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 11: Listen, Oh no, no, let's. 170 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 5: Let's as expected the New York Times, and they're carefully 171 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 5: curated headlines.

He didn't die at thirty one. 178 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 5: It's hard to stop because there's a bullet through his juggular. 179 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 5: Why was Charlie Kirk murdered? By the way, how about 180 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 5: this lady here? 181 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 14: Really over the weekend, Elon Musk, Charlie Kirk, other Trump 182 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 14: aligned figures succeeded in making this senseless death a symbol 183 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 14: of big city crime. 184 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 15: Like we're in a war right now to save this country, 185 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 15: and so you have to be willing to do whatever 186 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 15: is necessary in order to save the country. 187 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 7: Violence doesn't come from Democrats, just to be clear. I mean, 188 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 7: obviously anyone can be a criminal, but it is maga 189 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 7: is specifically magaffection. 190 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 3: Like you get up in the morning and you doom 191 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: scroll through things. 192 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 11: And although I will say this, the last few days 193 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 11: you woke up thinking there might be news, just sign, 194 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 11: just sign. 195 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 14: You can only push people so far and then they 196 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 14: start to take hands. 197 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think any of that had anything to do 198 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 5: with it. They Democrats incited this violence. They called trolley 199 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 5: racist for no reason. The blood is on Democrats' hands 200 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 5: with a Harry system that clown right there, piece of garbage, 201 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 5: little influencer, Biden influencer. 202 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 3: Wow. 203 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 5: But what's incredible is that after having a day to 204 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 5: process what happened, twenty four hours or less, Democrat Party 205 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 5: media still running with her. 206 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,599 Speaker 3: This is Maga's fault narrative. 207 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,959 Speaker 1: My large saying, we all need to turn down the rhetoric. 208 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: So let's be serious about where this violence is coming. 209 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 3: From speaking of this tragedy. 210 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 11: Is this a moment for your party to reflect on 211 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 11: political violence? 212 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: But what can be done? 213 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 11: I fear when this is an escalation already in less 214 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 11: than twenty four hours of this shooting. 215 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 6: That is incredibly dangerous. I am really really disappointed. And 216 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 6: what I would urge I would really urge the President 217 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 6: of the United States to speak out against that. I 218 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 6: don't view this as an issue of the right or 219 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 6: the left. I think we've seen political violence, you know, 220 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 6: on both sides of the spectrum. 221 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 5: You know, these Democrats they're the ones killing people, not us. 222 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 3: The left is. 223 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 5: And yet their answer does it come out today less 224 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 5: than twenty four hours after he was murdered, assassinated in 225 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 5: cold blood talking to students at a Utah University and 226 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 5: scold conservatives listen the fish rots from the head down. 227 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 5: When Joe Biden yelled in front of red lights in 228 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 5: Philadelphia about Maggi extremists being the biggest threat to America, 229 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 5: his followers listened when every Democrat leader and politician spends 230 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 5: more than a decade spreading violent and hateful propaganda rhetoric 231 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 5: against MAGA and Trump and anyone who supports him. There 232 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 5: are consequences. There's lunatics on the left. They'll take that 233 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 5: and run with it. It's their dog whistle, it's their 234 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 5: signal to perpetrate violence against the people that they're calling 235 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 5: racist and bigoted. For no reason, the left created this, 236 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 5: and now we have millions and millions of brainwashed left 237 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 5: wing lunatics who actually believe that President Trump is Hitler 238 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 5: or something and the supporters MAGA are Nazis, and they've 239 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 5: been encouraged to harm us. Charlie Kirk died debating and 240 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,359 Speaker 5: that is the cornerstone of democracy. Killing Charlie for that, 241 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 5: that is the definition of fascism. 242 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 3: Killing is all they have. Violence is all they have left. 243 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 5: After the attempt on President Trump's life, the left didn't 244 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 5: dial down their rhetoric. No, they're even more hateful and 245 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 5: vile than ever. This is who they are, pure on 246 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 5: adult trade hate. As an American, in my life, there 247 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 5: have been only two moments where a public event left 248 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 5: me shaken and where I thought that the future of 249 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 5: America is uncertain. Two moments where I thought there's a 250 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 5: possibility a terrible future may lay ahead. Furs to September eleventh, 251 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 5: two thousand and one. I was there, watched it, watch 252 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 5: the planes fly into the I worked at the World 253 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 5: Trade Center. 254 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 3: I was there for that. 255 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 5: The confusion afterwards I can't even describe. And the second 256 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 5: September tenth, twenty twenty five, nearly twenty four years later. 257 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 5: I don't know what lies ahead, but I do know this. 258 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 5: The Left just showed us exactly who they are. 259 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 3: This is the. 260 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 5: Line in the sand. I'm angry. You should be angry. 261 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 5: We should all be pissed and more resolute than ever. 262 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 5: This is only the beginning. What we do next, it's critical. 263 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 5: What we do next will decide the future of this country. 264 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk did not die in vain, and we will 265 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 5: make sure of that. Up next, we're going to talk 266 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 5: to Brandon Russan, a young man who is right in 267 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 5: front of Charlie Kirk when he was assassinated. 268 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: Stick around for that two and a half minutes. 269 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 16: Away, all right, folks. 270 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 5: Our next guest was in the crowd in front of 271 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk during yesterday's assassination at Utah val University. Brandon 272 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 5: Roussan is a he's shaken, he's shaken up by the 273 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 5: murder of Charlie Kirk, but he's agreed to come on 274 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 5: and tell us what happened. Brandon, thank you so much 275 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 5: for joining us. Tell us, you know, take us through. 276 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 5: First of all, where were you specifically? Just just establish that. 277 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 14: I was directly in front of Charlie's tent, approximately fifteen 278 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 14: feet in front of him when the shot occurred. 279 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 5: The shot occurred. Okay, Now let's back up a little bit. 280 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 5: The beautiful day, gorgeous, a big crowd, huge crowd, anything 281 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 5: unusual at the time, maybe before did you notice anything? 282 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 5: Just take us through anything you may have seen or 283 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 5: thought or heard. 284 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 14: There was nothing visibly unusual that I observed. However, I 285 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 14: did walk into the courtyard thinking if there was going 286 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 14: to be any sort of attempt on Charlie's life, this 287 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 14: is a awful open area. There's so many bandage points 288 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 14: that maybe a shooter could hide hide in. And those 289 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 14: were the legitimate thoughts I had, And I told my 290 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 14: friend that I was with before the event began. But 291 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 14: then I just kind of threw that those thoughts to 292 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 14: the side, thinking this is a very Charlie friendly crowd. 293 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 14: Utah's pretty conservative and and so I just didn't think 294 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 14: anything of it after that, until, of course, the the 295 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 14: event took place. 296 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 5: Now tell us you know he was He had the 297 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 5: microphone down, he was listening to I think a student 298 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 5: there's someone in the in the audience's question, picks up 299 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 5: the microphone, starts to answer the question and tell us 300 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 5: what you what you saw? 301 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 3: What you witnessed? 302 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 14: Oh man, I replayed in my head all day and 303 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 14: all night. I couldn't sleep, I can't eat it is 304 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 14: it is a haunting image that will help me for 305 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 14: the rest of my life. I I didn't think it 306 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,239 Speaker 14: was real at first when I heard the shot and 307 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 14: I saw Charlie slump over and just a graphic detail 308 00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 14: of of of that, that fatal wound really really shook 309 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 14: me up. I didn't have any time to process it 310 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 14: before I dropped to the ground with everyone else kind 311 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 14: of instinctively. And at that point I knew that that 312 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 14: Charlie had been shot, and what I had saw was 313 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 14: it looked like that shot would be fatal. So I 314 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 14: reached for my phone and texted my wife and told 315 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 14: her that there was a shooter and that I loved 316 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 14: her and in case there were any more shots that 317 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 14: would happen, and luckily there wasn't, but I needed her 318 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 14: to know in case that, in case the shooter was 319 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 14: going to target anyone else. 320 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 5: You hear one shot, the crowd goes down, starts to disperse. 321 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 5: You don't hear any more shots, right, no more shots. 322 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 14: And at that point, when people realized there weren't any 323 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 14: more shots, I think we all kind of got an 324 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 14: adrenaline rush started running towards the buildings. I know the 325 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 14: people in the back had started to run to buildings 326 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 14: at first, but all of us who were in the 327 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 14: standing crowd had dropped down to the ground and were 328 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 14: kind of all huddled together. 329 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 5: So, yeah, I've seen the video. I know, I know 330 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 5: what you saw. I saw it on tape. I know 331 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 5: what I saw. Everyone wanted to believe he was going 332 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 5: to be okay, but that was a fatal That was 333 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 5: a instantly fatal shot. Leading up to this, you're part 334 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 5: of the community, the Utah Valley University community area. How 335 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 5: did you find yourself at this event? 336 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 14: I was a former UVU student. I saw ads posted 337 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 14: for this event. I've watched and loved Charlie Kirk's content 338 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 14: for years, and so I was very excited to attend 339 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 14: this event and see the open dialogue you'd have with 340 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 14: with people in Utah, and and and so I just 341 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 14: there was there was so much excitement in a way 342 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 14: for me to to decompress from the school year, and 343 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 14: and obviously it's now a very traumatizing event in my life. 344 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 5: Brandon, did you did you see any counter protesting? Do 345 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 5: you see any people who were anti Charlie? I saw 346 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 5: a couple of you know, Pride flags and some folks 347 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 5: on some looked like almost a bridgeway or walkway with 348 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 5: some with some Pride flags and signs. What tell us 349 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 5: if you saw any anything that would look like you 350 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 5: would be could be potentially a lead for investigators? 351 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 3: What what did you see? 352 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 14: I In terms of the protesting, Yes, above the tent, 353 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 14: there were there were protesters who had signs. We weren't 354 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 14: really heating hating them at all. 355 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 17: Uh. 356 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 14: However, the thing that really kind of still haunts me 357 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 14: and makes me suspicious, and I think it's already being 358 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 14: looked into. Uh. I Once the shot rang out and 359 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 14: we dropped to the ground, I don't know if you've 360 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 14: seen the video that's going around of a guy who 361 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 14: was in the middle of that standing crowd close to 362 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 14: the tent. He's the only one still standing up, and 363 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 14: he was pumping his fists in the air and shouting 364 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 14: and yelling. And I was right next to that guy 365 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,919 Speaker 14: at that crowd, and I was I looked up to 366 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 14: him while I was on the ground, and I just 367 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 14: felt such a I felt I felt really dark in 368 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 14: that moment. I don't know he was. 369 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 5: He was celebrating Charlie's demise. Is that what your indication? 370 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 14: Yes, yes, that's why. 371 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 3: Can you describe this guy a little bit more? 372 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean he he was just standing next to 373 00:21:51,760 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 14: me in the crowd before it happened, and he. 374 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 3: Tell us what he looked like. Oh that's the guy. 375 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 3: This is the guy we're talking about. Right here. 376 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 14: I am right down on the ground next to that guy. 377 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 5: And holy smokes, I haven't seen that. 378 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 14: That made me feel a terrible feeling when I when 379 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 14: I saw him doing that, I think that's when it 380 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 14: sank in that Charlie had just been killed. 381 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 3: You know, very very odd show that you keep rolling 382 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 3: this because when we freeze right here, he's looking are there. 383 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: That's kind of the direction that that shot came from? 384 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 3: Is it not?

I know at this point the shooter 391 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 14: had run off the rooftop according to other videos that 392 00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 14: have been released, But I would not discount as I 393 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 14: do think he could be looking in that direction.

I'm not alleging that they 428 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 14: had anything to do with it, but more that they 429 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 14: are just celebrating the death of this beloved man. And 430 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 14: unfortunately I did not notice anything else suspicious besides this 431 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 14: man who is very very clear in my head.

I think talking about it has 437 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 14: has helped ground me. I've been trying to push the 438 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 14: image of what I saw out of my head for 439 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 14: the past twenty four hours, and yes, talking about it 440 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 14: recreates that image in my head once again. But I 441 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 14: think I can. I can now tell myself this is 442 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 14: this is not a nightmare, this is reality, and and 443 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 14: all I can do now is move forward.

Mister Mike Bence, Mike, You've 456 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 5: been listening to a harrowing recount of one of the 457 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 5: most tragic moments, maybe ever in American history. Young man 458 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 5: was front seat, front row to heinous assassination. 459 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 3: What are you hearing? 460 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 5: First of all, what are you hearing? And then you 461 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 5: can weigh in on what you heard just the moments ago. 462 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: It's it's all mortified. It's I think it changes the 463 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,959 Speaker 1: history of this country. It casts a pall of death 464 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: over what had been really an unbroken series of successes. 465 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,640 Speaker 1: It's felt like within this movement, within the cultural unity 466 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: and solidarity that people have felt, this is this is 467 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: the loss of an unbelievable and hard to process magnitude. 468 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: Charlie was a force of nature. I would not be 469 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 1: here without Charlie. I don't think we as a as 470 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: a movement, as a cause, would be here without Charlie. 471 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: He was a He was a child prodigy in this 472 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: with a very unique set of gifts that you almost 473 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 1: never see in the same person. What what this cause 474 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: needed most in the early days a decade ago, were institutions. 475 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: There was a there was a feeling within America and 476 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 1: a voter base and an electorate, and moms and dads 477 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: and kids who had a feeling about the way they 478 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: wanted the direction of this country to go in. But 479 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: what really makes a cause or a movement durable is 480 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 1: the construction of institutions. And there were no maga institutions 481 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: until this kid, this eighteen year old kid, Charley shows 482 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: up and he builds not just any institution, he went 483 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: straight into the Lionston. The most hostile place on planet 484 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: Earth for an American populous cause college universities, colleges and universities. 485 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: I think turning point now is thirty five hundred college chapters. 486 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: When I was in college, nobody wanted to be labeled 487 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,479 Speaker 1: a conservative. Nobody wanted to be labeled a Republican. All 488 00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: there was was college Republicans, which was a a social 489 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: death sentence. There was no community, There was no solidarity. 490 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:08,719 Speaker 1: There were no events. There were no speakers or parties 491 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: or networking or everyone having each other's back. And Charlie 492 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: built that from the ground up. And he did that 493 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: as a communicator, as a long term strategist, as a 494 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: bridge builder. I think Charlie had the most difficult job 495 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: out of anyone, in some ways more difficult than the president. 496 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: He had to he had to wrangle every side of maga, 497 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: all of the cultural flare ups between one side of 498 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: maga versus another, between one side of an issue versus another, 499 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: and he had to always find a way to bridge 500 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: them together in order to keep them unified as a cohesive, 501 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: unified force. And that's very, very, very difficult to do, 502 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: and that responsibility was put on You sometimes see that 503 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: in the wisdom of elders who were able to be 504 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: diplomatic spokesman, ambassadors, communicators, but also clear linear logical thinkers. 505 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: Charlie did that as a kid. Every room he walked in, 506 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: it looked like Charlie was president or was about to 507 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: be president. When you see him next to President's he 508 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: looks like he's going to be president. I could see 509 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: him as being having been JD. Vance's vice president. In 510 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: the next election cycle he turns thirty five. He did 511 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: the impossible building institutions, and that gave a green light 512 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: to other people that try to build the institutions. So 513 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: we need a thousand more institution builders. And we just 514 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: lost our best one to a cold blooded, gruesome, grizzly 515 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: broad day broad daylight execution. I think what has to 516 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: happen at this point has to be an extraordinary message 517 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: sent from our FBI and law enforcement. An example has 518 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: to be made. 519 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 5: So and you're you're you're touching on something, Mike, because 520 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 5: I want to. I want to delve into this and 521 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 5: what I like you to do. Let me take a 522 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 5: quick break because I want to. I want to delve 523 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 5: into this because for this guy to pull off a 524 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 5: one shot you where is he? He gets away? 525 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 3: It scares me. 526 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 5: It makes me feel like there's more than one person 527 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 5: behind this. But I want I want Mike bench to 528 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 5: take after the break, can you stick around? Yeah, yes, sir, Okay, 529 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 5: we'll be back in two and a half minutes. 530 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 15: Man, Charlie, I remember when we were starting these out and. 531 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 3: It was that like that, you know, it was like this. 532 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 15: It was like it was like your average three roads. 533 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 3: It was like your average. 534 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 10: Political meeting where there was like twelve people in. 535 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 3: A room and this is this is awesome. 536 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 15: This, in my personal opinion, was the most over the 537 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 15: top Trump event that I've ever covered. This is the 538 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 15: number one boots on the ground operation of the country. 539 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 15: We're working directly in harmony at the Trump campaign. It's 540 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 15: been vetted, it's been cleared, it's been blessed. You could 541 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 15: see there, and we're going to try to win this thing. 542 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 15: No guarantees, it's what we do that matters, mister President. 543 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 15: I can tell you this room is one hundred percent 544 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 15: with you and we have your back. God bless you, 545 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 15: Thank you. 546 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 5: All Right, we're continuing conversation with Mike Benz, the executive 547 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 5: director of the Foundation for Freedom Online. Mike, Okay, so 548 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 5: the question I posed to you was, we're forty but 549 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 5: twenty four hours plus out from the assassination. No sign 550 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 5: they have someone, they have a person of interest that 551 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 5: they may be talking to. Positively, How does a guy 552 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 5: spend get away from this amount of people, this amount, 553 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 5: these amount of phones and cell phones. Does it not 554 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 5: feel to you like there was more people than one 555 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 5: shooter involved in this? 556 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. The range of possibility 557 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: is very wide. I hesitate to express exactly what I'm 558 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: my inclinations are in a moment like this because there's 559 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: so little information in terms of we know it was 560 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: a rooftop shooter. We know it was a actually a 561 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: one shot sniper dead. 562 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 5: On Mike, Mike, let me, let me do this. Me 563 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,399 Speaker 5: and I know, and you know, everyone's going to pull 564 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,399 Speaker 5: a sound. But if Mike says something or Eric says 565 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 5: something that ends up being wrong later, listen Wall Street 566 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 5: Journal Drudge reporting ammunition engraved with trans anti fascist ideology. 567 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 5: It's not us, It's not Mike or Eric rav It's 568 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 5: on Drudge right now. And I saw Wall Street Journal 569 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 5: saying that the one of the shell casings, I think 570 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 5: was what they found with an engravement on it. Now, 571 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 5: if true changes the dynamic a little, doesn't it? 572 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 1: Certainly if that bears out to be true. I just 573 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: know that there have been a few things that have 574 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: been walked back in the past twenty four hours, and 575 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:49,720 Speaker 1: so I'm trying. Frankly, Eric, I'm filled with enough rage 576 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: right now that I want to make sure it's directed 577 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: at the proper targets. There's I feel the impulse in me. 578 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: I think probably millions do that as soon as we 579 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: find this mother. So as we find this monster, I 580 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 1: want him strung up. I want crows to eat his 581 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: insides out. I want to be publicly televised after a 582 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: guilty verdict, due process and admin administered by the law. 583 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: But I want the most monstrous, gruesome death that we 584 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: just had to watch. I want that to be etched 585 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: into the halls of eternity so that anyone who tries 586 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 1: to do anything like this ever again sees what their 587 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: own insides look like on national television, and their family 588 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 1: will have to see it the way Charlie's has had 589 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: to see his. I don't think. I think about whoever 590 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: did this, if they had to stand in a room 591 00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: with Charlie and how Charlie would tower over them, they 592 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: wouldn't stand a chance in a fistfight or a verbal 593 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: fight or anything. And a coward I whoever that is 594 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: the most unspeakable things have to be administered by our 595 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 1: law enforcement. 596 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,399 Speaker 3: Brings up the questionings up the question. 597 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: So I hesitate. All I'm saying is I hesitate to 598 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:34,439 Speaker 1: point it at the responsible group until we know who 599 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: that is. 600 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. I agree. However, again again, not Mike or Eric 601 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 3: reporting or rav reporting. 602 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 5: A New York Post right now just came out a 603 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 5: rifle recovered in the hunt for conservative influencer Charlie Kirks 604 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 5: assassin contained ammo engraved with quote transgender. 605 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 3: And anti fascist ideology. 606 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 5: According to preliminary reports from law enforcement sources. 607 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I just want to make sure that I know, Eric, 608 00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,240 Speaker 1: I just want to make sure that's one hundred percent 609 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 1: true before I before I mean into it, because that 610 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: that is true, that that and and and I agree, 611 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 1: I know, I disagree with the editorial line of the 612 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:13,479 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal quite frequently, uh and I have seen 613 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: them factually, in my view, misreport things in the past. 614 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 1: And and given that our own FBI has released two 615 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: suspects on this already, I just I just want to 616 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 1: I want a higher degree of certainty before I I 617 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: commit that that is we we. 618 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 5: Had a discussion, We've had the discussion on the show 619 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 5: last week in the beginning part of this week. Should 620 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 5: transgender people be barred from purchasing firearms owning firearms in America? 621 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 5: And and I would stand on. 622 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 3: The side, especially if this is true. 623 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 5: Again, we just saw the same thing happening in Minneapolis, 624 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 5: where a couple of young school children were murdered, assassinated, 625 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 5: killed while they're praying in church. And the inscriptions on 626 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 5: the gunman's guns and magazines were anti Trump, killed Donald Trump, 627 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 5: you know, And this was a trans a trans guy 628 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 5: doing this, right, it's trans. 629 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 3: Do yeah, but there's a lot of us. 630 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 5: If this is true, if this gun that they found 631 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 5: did have those markings and it belonged to the shooter, 632 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 5: I will continue to say that there's something going on 633 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 5: in the trans community. I'm not saying all gape'caping. I'm 634 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 5: saying in the trans community, there's something happening. There's something 635 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 5: affecting their ability to ration in reason, and maybe it's 636 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 5: the drugs they need to take to change to try 637 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 5: and change their gender. Then they're going to change it, 638 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 5: but try and change their gender, and it does push 639 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 5: into the area of yes, if if you can be 640 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 5: mentally unstable and not be allowed to own a gun, 641 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 5: or if you can be a need a medical marijuana 642 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 5: card in some states and not own a gun or 643 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 5: have an open carry license. 644 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 3: Then guess what. 645 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 5: I believe that whatever's going on in the trans community, 646 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 5: we need to investigate because there's probably some sort of 647 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 5: link there. In my opinion, not ravs, not my just. 648 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: Eric's right, and where I am on this is I 649 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,720 Speaker 1: want to see those engraved casings posted by the FBI 650 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,919 Speaker 1: X account. I want to see them on FBI dot gov. 651 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: I want to get it firsthand from Cashtel and Dan Begino, 652 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 1: so that we know that this is actually the truth, 653 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 1: rather than getting it secondhand from the Wall Street Journal, 654 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: whose reportage I've not been particularly impressed by in the 655 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 1: past several years. And I just want to make sure 656 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: that that is one hundred percent true, because obviously the 657 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 1: trans community, I think, has been disproportionately celebrating this death. 658 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 1: You can go on Blue Sky and just see post 659 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: after post of he her them. They celebrating this in 660 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: the most monstrous way possible. You've seen calls from radical 661 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: members of those communities calling for Charlie's death long before this. 662 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 1: I keep a pretty cleo knows to the grindstone on 663 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 1: these left wing commentary communities online. I think it's important 664 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 1: for folks on the conservative side to read what folks 665 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: with opposing views say to each other, especially when they 666 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:17,760 Speaker 1: don't think you're listening. And Charlie was disproportionately at target, 667 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 1: almost more than anyone else I can think of, for many, 668 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 1: many months and years before this, even though he was 669 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: arguably the most moderate of all the large right wing 670 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: MAGA voices, but certainly the trans community and many other 671 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:42,399 Speaker 1: aspects of the cultural so called progressive far much more 672 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:43,439 Speaker 1: far left side. 673 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 5: You're very A lot of people listen to you, they 674 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 5: take your word. They need to process this all the 675 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 5: heightened rhetoric. 676 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 3: I mean, we just ran. 677 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 5: I did a whole monologue with probably ten different sound 678 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 5: bites of progressive liberals kind of blaming Charlie for his 679 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 5: own demise, or. 680 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,240 Speaker 3: Calling Trump and any. 681 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 5: One of his supporters Charlie being one of his biggest 682 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 5: Hitler and Nazis, and basically planting seeds to grow into 683 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 5: what these are these evil acts of assassinations or assassination 684 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 5: attempts in Trump. 685 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,799 Speaker 3: Is there a tie in your opinion. 686 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: Well, the SPLC drew a target map with a it 687 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: looked like a basically a bullet sight on Charlie's turning 688 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: Point USA, turning Point USA. You remember this heat map 689 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: of extremist groups, and this sort of moral quandary if 690 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: you could go back in time and kill baby Hitler 691 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: has been very normalized. This idea that if it would 692 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: change the trajector of history, it's actually okay to engage 693 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: in first degree premeditated, cold blooded homicide. And I think. 694 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 5: Anyone to say that because I often think of this 695 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,720 Speaker 5: in the last twenty four hours change the course of history. 696 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 3: And you was it you that me?

There is 703 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 1: no way Charlie Kirk would not have been a president 704 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: of the United States at some point in the next 705 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: ten twenty thirty forty years. 706 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 3: He was. 707 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,840 Speaker 1: He was chosen for that. He spent his whole life 708 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: in this. He was the perfect person for this. He 709 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 1: was the bridge between every element of the MAGA movement. 710 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: And they shot that bridge in the in the crux 711 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: of his neck and broad daylight. 712 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, events change the course of history.

Starting with 739 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 5: none other than Jamie Raskin, the Democrat congressman who offered 740 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 5: a smirk and a shrug before giving a half assed 741 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 5: response about the murder. 742 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 16: Coming on the rhetoric country what happened with Charlie Kirk? 743 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 8: You know, I mean, it's a horror what's going on. 744 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 8: And the gun violence is out of control, and you know, 745 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 8: my heart goes out to Charlie Kirk's family. What a 746 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 8: nightmare this whole thing is. And we saw it recently 747 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 8: in Minnesota with elected officials being targeted, and you know, 748 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 8: it's just out of control across the country and. 749 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 5: Gun general, gun control, right, why is it Democrats and 750 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 5: liberals are the ones killing everyone and then calling for 751 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 5: no more guns, and they're using guns when they do it. 752 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 5: Of course, AOC had the way in she made Charlie's 753 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 5: killing all about gun control again. But let's be honest, 754 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 5: are you really surprised? 755 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 18: Yes, there are words, But most importantly, we are in 756 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 18: a job of leadership. We are in a job of action. 757 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 18: We are in a role and a position where the 758 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,840 Speaker 18: American people are looking to us to do something about this. 759 00:45:55,400 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 18: And every single day people are dying due to gun 760 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,360 Speaker 18: violence in America. And every single day there are people 761 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 18: in this building that continue to vote against doing anything 762 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 18: against universal background checks. They continue to support legislation. 763 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,319 Speaker 5: Control Don Lemon did another one of his terrible Man 764 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,479 Speaker 5: on the Street reporting segments. By the way, Don Lemon 765 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 5: texted me in the middle of the show yesterday, is 766 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:26,800 Speaker 5: Charlie really dead? 767 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 3: Shut up? 768 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 5: Don shut the hell up. Well, he's on the street 769 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 5: and just I don't know. Right after Charlie Kirk was killed, 770 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:39,240 Speaker 5: those horrible completely politicized the unthinkable situation. He like AOC, 771 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 5: immediately used the tragedy as his opportunity to what push 772 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 5: gun control. 773 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 3: It's their only thing they've got.

He's a very conservative, 777 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 17: right wing activist. He was shot today at a at 778 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 17: a college gathering in Utah and killed him. 779 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 7: I'm disheartened by that because he's a human being. I 780 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:08,280 Speaker 7: don't condone the death or any killing of anyone that's. 781 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 17: Wrong, regardless of their political views. 782 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 7: Regardless of their political views, we're all humans. 783 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 3: What should we do about guns? 784 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 7: We definitely need to have gun control so that we 785 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 7: can eliminate violence. 786 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 17: You think this will make a difference. 787 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 7: Absolutely, you do. I do, because the attention is here. 788 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 7: I think, and I hope that it will allow people 789 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 7: to take it more seriously and do something about it. 790 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 3: Gun control. All right, I want to show you a 791 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 3: clip now.

I found this video from June 795 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 5: of last year, June of twenty twenty four, so Trump 796 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 5: was running. 797 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 3: This is before. 798 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 5: This is before Trump had the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. 799 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 5: Let's roll the first sound by, because this is Charlie 800 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,920 Speaker 5: really talking about exactly what happen and to him, it's 801 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,839 Speaker 5: it's really prescient on his on his part, and I'm 802 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,439 Speaker 5: just it's it's eerie, eerie hear him say this knowing 803 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:08,320 Speaker 5: what happened yesterday. 804 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 15: Watch this is where this is headed. I hope everyone understands. 805 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 15: Whether it be Julius Caesar, Yeah, Julius Caesar, Abraham Lincoln, 806 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 15: John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Martin, Luther King, Junior, Bobby Kennedy, 807 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 15: assassinations of major political leaders are nothing new, and yet 808 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 15: we've kind of been immune to that for a couple 809 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 15: of decades. We have been warning about this for months now. 810 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 15: The very interesting question is will they try to kill 811 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,400 Speaker 15: Joe Biden or Donald Trump? 812 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 5: Before the assassination Tempen butler, Charlie Kirk said that, but 813 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 5: he went on. He went on, and this is where 814 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 5: we need. This is the legacy that we need to 815 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:51,479 Speaker 5: have post Charlie Kirk. 816 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,839 Speaker 15: Listen, month, this is why the next man Up philosophy 817 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 15: is so important and why we wanted to do the 818 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 15: show with you, Steve. As a show of force. Is 819 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 15: that you take one out one hundred more a peer, 820 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,319 Speaker 15: you take one out, one thousand more a peer. You 821 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,080 Speaker 15: take one out, ten thousand more a peer. You take 822 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 15: one out, we give more money. You take one out, 823 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 15: we register more voters. You take one out. Is that 824 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 15: it only actually makes us stronger. 825 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 5: You see pretty amazing, right, They took Charlie Kirk out, 826 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 5: but they didn't take out TPUSA. They didn't take out 827 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk's movement that he started. We will continue that, 828 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 5: we will hold the torch. We will continue to follow that. 829 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 5: And when he said you take one out, we have 830 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 5: ten more behind it.
