WEBVTT - Understanding The Kirk Legacy - September 17th, Hour 3 0:00:01.000 --> 0:00:05.119 Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload. 0:00:05.280 --> 0:00:07.640 All right, News round Up and information overload. Our ar 0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:09.799 toll free numbers eight hundred and nine to four one 0:00:09.840 --> 0:00:12.240 sean if you want to be a part of the program. 0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:16.520 It's incredible the reaction. I've spoken to a lot of 0:00:16.560 --> 0:00:21.240 young people and how they've been impacted at this political 0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:25.079 assassination of Charlie Kirk. And I said this earlier in 0:00:25.079 --> 0:00:27.280 the week and last week that you know, in all 0:00:27.320 --> 0:00:30.280 the years I've been doing this, my kids only wanted 0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:33.120 to meet two people of all the people that I've interviewed, 0:00:33.159 --> 0:00:35.519 all the people that I know, although they do like 0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:39.640 professional athletes, especially my son, but the two people politically 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:44.319 were President Trump and Charlie Kirk. And my son did 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:46.680 get to meet and spend time with Charlie and it 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:50.520 meant a lot to him. And I wanted to bring 0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:53.400 on bring back to the program two young people that 0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:59.280 have been on before, Isabelle Brown and Catalina Love. They'll 0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:01.920 join us in a second. I saw that Isabelle actually 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.440 put out thinking back to last week, I am so 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:09.759 moved by the fact that much of his quiet, free 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:12.640 time in the green room with me, you know, he 0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.880 was talking about heaven. As people of faith, we know 0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:19.800 that death is you know something that I can't actually 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:21.840 read this because I can't see it all. But when 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:26.360 someone is pure and robbed of life so prematurely. But 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:29.320 I rejoice in prayer today that even though you know 0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:32.399 we've lost Charlie, he's more alive than we are in 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:36.000 a fullness of our Savior and his anchor in heaven. 0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:40.720 Which I thought was extremely eloquent and beautifully written. One 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:43.000 of the things that really stood out to me is 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:46.759 Charlie would go into these hostile environments on college campuses, 0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:50.680 knowing that they're hostile environments, and he'd take on all comers. 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:52.880 He did it cheerfully, did it with a smile on 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:55.440 his face. He'd be called every name in the book. 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:58.840 You're a Nazi, you're a racist, you're a fascist. Okay, 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:02.200 give me one example. You're a Nazi, you're euracist, you're 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:04.560 a fascist. They could never give him an example, and 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:08.320 they look stupid. I mean, this is the type of thing. Honestly, 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:12.400 if these schools were not in doctrination centers, this should 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:16.400 be you know, vigorous debate happening inside classrooms. But it 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:19.320 doesn't happen didn't happen when I was going to school. 0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:23.440 And it's sad because this is an opportunity for the 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:28.320 free and open exchange of ideas and principles and opinions, 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.440 and you know, people should be free to express themselves. 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:36.320 And Charlie would challenge, you know, the indoctrination of many 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:40.639 and have a profound impact on these young people. And secondarily, 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.040 you know, many young people that were conservative that felt 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:47.399 they had to be quiet on college campuses. It gave them, 0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:50.880 you know, a sense of validation of what their true 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:55.160 views and opinions are. Anyway, we welcome back Isabelle Brown 0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:58.839 and Catalina Lauf are back with us. Thank you both 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:01.560 for being here. Isabel Well, you knew Charlie Well. I 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:05.400 saw a picture of you and Charlie on the internet 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:06.200 at Turning Point. 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:07.960 You work with him, I did, Son. 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:11.239 I've worked with Charlie for about eight years now, and 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.799 like many of these students that are so inspired by 0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:18.400 his courage and his ability to tell the truth under fire, 0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:21.320 I was one of those college students who started a 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.840 Turning Point USA chapter on my campus at Colorado State 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:29.080 University in twenty seventeen, and I just have had so 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:32.359 many wonderful memories come back this last year of all 0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:34.800 of the times, Charlie spoke life into me and so 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:38.240 many other young conservatives who have a national platform now 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:42.200 by giving us an opportunity, an opportunity to join him 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:44.240 in this fight to tell the truth. And as mentioned 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.120 in reading my Instagram caption there a few moments ago, 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:50.000 I was so privileged to be able to share the 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:53.520 stage with Charlie at a pro life speaking event about 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:56.760 two weeks ago today, actually on the Dots, one of 0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:59.640 his last speeches here on this earth, and I've mentioned 0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:02.040 there what he wanted to talk about more than anything 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:04.600 else backstage as we spent some time catching up and 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.800 hanging out like old times, was God and his faith, 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.200 and we spent quite a bit of time talking about Heaven, 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.600 which translated into his speech for the crowd there as well. 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:17.280 He was so peacefully rooted in his calling from God 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.680 and his vocation from the Holy Spirit to show up 0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:22.000 and tell the truth. And I know he carried that 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:24.680 same vocation with him through that event at Utah Valley 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:25.680 University as well. 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:28.719 You know, I spent a lot more time this weekend 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:33.360 looking at videos at Charlie, And because I'm so wrapped 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:37.280 up and doing four hours of broadcasting every day, it's 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:42.359 almost completely all consuming. And so many things that he 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:45.280 said and was saying to young people was so impressive. 0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:48.520 You know, Catalina, you know, God forbid, you have somebody 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:53.200 on a college campus mentioned God, or encouraging young people 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:56.680 to go to church, or encouraging people not to be 0:04:56.760 --> 0:05:00.560 part of hookup culture, or encouraging people not to be 0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:02.960 the stupid kid throwing up in the bushes or doing 0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:08.240 drugs and finding the spiritual side of your life. And 0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:11.080 even when you would go out, or if you're a guy, 0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:14.080 you would take a girl out, you would respect her, 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.159 you would pay for your date, you'd open the door. 0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:20.919 And he described his own experience with Erica is you 0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:24.360 know he called it an interview process, wanting to find 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:27.640 you know, the purpose of dating, to find a potential mate. 0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:31.400 And I found that very encouraging and telling people, you 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:34.320 know what, don't be part of hookup culture. You know, 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:37.960 this is something blessed and sacred, and you don't hear 0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:41.160 that often on college campuses. Probably the only time some 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:42.680 of these kids heard it was from him. 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:45.760 Yeah, thanks for having us on Sean. You know, he 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:50.080 was a big brother. So many young men in particularly 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:53.919 need it. And I know that firsthand because when I 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:56.800 first heard about Charlie, it was back in twenty thirteen 0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:59.320 when I was graduating college and he was from my 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:03.720 home state, Illinois, and my two younger neighbor boys who 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.000 you know, I'd watched grown up, I had watched grown up, 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.919 I'd babysat them. They were still in middle school in 0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:12.080 high school at the time, thinking about college. And I'm 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.159 sure this goes for a lot of us then that 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.479 when young people you care about are about to go 0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:19.400 to college, there's always that fear that when they go 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.360 off to college, they can be poisoned and indoctrinated. And 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:25.000 we obviously didn't want that happening to these young boys 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:29.120 in our neighborhood. And one afternoon I was home and 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:32.839 from college and they were raving about this young guy 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:36.359 from our state named Charlie Kirk and about all of 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:39.880 the conservative values that he was talking about social issues, 0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:43.599 but he was so relatable to them, and I knew 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:45.840 in that moment, I was like, you know, what, these 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:49.640 kids are going to be okay. And then fast forward, 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.320 you know, eight years later to see Turning Point USA 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:58.120 become what it was because of Charlie's leadership. I was 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:01.320 running for Congress at the time, and I got to 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:05.479 meet Charlie and many of the same mentors and investors 0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:08.400 and donors who had once believed in Charlie and Turning 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:13.640 Point USA. We're now getting involved in politics and specifically 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:18.840 supporting young candidates because of Charlie's advice to support young 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:22.200 people in the political space. And that just shows, you know, 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:26.640 Charlie's impact was generational and it will continue, and it's 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:30.280 just absolutely devastating for all of us in this all around. 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.120 You know, I get messages from people who said, I've 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:36.360 never spoken out, I've never had the courage to, but 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:39.320 because of what happened, I feel the need to now. 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:42.080 And so it's up to our generation to carry that 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:45.680 towards forward and to live Charlie's legacy and not only 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:48.160 a positive light and bring the good that he did, 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:52.640 but also bolder, louder, and stronger to fight against this 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.520 evil that's infecting our country, especially young minds. 0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:57.920 You know, Isabella, as I was watching a lot of 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:01.600 these videos this weekend, and I sent many of them 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.520 to my kids and my son's twenty six. My daughter 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:07.200 just turned twenty four. She was born thirteen days before 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:12.240 nine to eleven. And this generation never experienced nine to eleven. 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:16.240 Kids that are in college today and they have no 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:19.960 memory of it because they weren't alive. And this is 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:24.640 a watershed moment, I believe for them. But just the 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:29.240 idea that he would tell young women to know your 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:34.199 worth and to put a high price and value on that, 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:37.760 and telling young men to be respectful, I just think 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:39.719 that those values are timeless. 0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:42.160 They absolutely are. You really hit the nail on the 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:45.680 head there, Sean, that this is a generationally defining moment. 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:48.400 You know, I was born in nineteen ninety seven. I'm 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:51.760 what most people agree is the first year of Generation 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:55.959 Z and I have the very very faintest singular memory 0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:58.280 of what nine to eleven was like. I just remember 0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:01.319 my parents staring at the TV also, But we don't 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:04.680 have an intimate experience as a generation to understand this 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:07.880 concept of all being under attack, our way of life 0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:11.360 being under attack, and what that will do to your society. 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.200 On the other side, that you have a choice to 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:16.960 come together in true unity, based in truth, and based 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.360 in this idea that we are one nation. Under God, 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:23.240 or you can let evil continue to fester and continue 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:26.200 to become more and more impactful tomorrow and every day 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:29.240 after that. But what I think is so impactful about 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:32.880 Charlie's death, in particular to an entire generation of people 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.880 that he spoke to, even those who vehemently disagreed with him, 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:39.560 is you're right. He was so honed in on this 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:43.760 concept of virtue in a generation that so many people 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:47.960 had already preemptively written off as too far gone. I've 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.520 been somewhat of the Gen Z apologists for the last 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:53.840 few years, and Charlie has always championed my voice in 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:56.440 that regard and has written forwards for my two books 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.559 and given me tons of opportunities to share good news 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:02.560 about Generation Z on his show and with his organization, 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:05.480 Turning Point USA for the last few years. But we've 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:10.040 been seeing this return to culturally conservative values, with young 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.920 people wanting to get married, wanting to go to church, 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:16.240 wanting to speak their minds, wanting to challenge their own 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:20.000 preconceived notions and get off of these indoctrinating college campuses 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:24.360 start their own businesses. Revived this concept of the American dreams, 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:28.000 and Charlie saw an opportunity with young people that most 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:30.360 of those older than him didn't. I can't tell you 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:33.640 how many times I've heard on national TV programming or 0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:37.320 radio and programs similar to this one that young people 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:41.240 are all, you know, purple haired, non binary, insane people 0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:44.120 that have lost their minds. But Charlie saw something different. 0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:48.120 He saw a broken generation simply needed someone to speak 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:51.480 life into them and encourage them to embrace virtue in 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:54.440 a broken world, with young men returning to chivalry, with 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:59.319 young women returning to godliness, and elevating ourselves as dignified 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:02.240 in a society trying to commodify us, and with young 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:05.480 people everywhere finding our innate dignity as made in the 0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:08.559 image of God. And of course, it's frustrating to see 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:12.320 the vile, vitriolic responses from some of the more radical 0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:16.000 voices on the left celebrating this death or saying that 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:20.000 this is normal somehow it's not. But I'm blown away 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:23.320 by the number of young people, even those who vehemently 0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:26.000 disagree with Charlie during his time here on earth, who 0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:28.360 have used the past six days or so to look 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:31.040 in the mirror and to say ost this young man's 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.480 legacy is so much bigger than electing a president of 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:37.080 the United States or reviving the Republican Party. This is 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:41.040 about a return to beauty and what's good and true 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.240 in society. And I want to be a part of 0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:44.160 that legacy too. 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:45.600 Yeah, pretty amazing. 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:50.760 I do believe that Turning Point now will be so 0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:54.800 much bigger than ever. I had Charlie's pastors on this 0:11:54.880 --> 0:12:00.640 radio program yesterday, Catalina, and they were amazing people, and 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:04.000 they believe as I do, that Turning Point is just 0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:07.400 getting started. And when Charlie came up with this idea, 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:11.679 I don't think people gave him a lot of thought 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:15.040 that there was a huge chance of success. But it 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:18.920 was through sheer force of will and dedication that he 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:22.400 got people on board to support him and his efforts. 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:24.600 And then he did all the hard work, and he 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.400 traveled to all these hostile environments and he didn't stop. 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:31.040 Got you know, Charlie who you know I did not 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:35.760 know so personal Isabelle and others, but I know he 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:38.839 was exceptionally well read in history, and he knew that 0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:41.400 the fight was in the schools and in the culture wars, 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:44.839 and that's exactly why he created Turning Point USA. And 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.960 I wanted to bring up history that really highlights that threat. 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:52.480 You know, in a nineteen sixty FBI report, Jaegger Hoover 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:56.760 once said, during the past two years, quote, Communist spokesmen 0:12:56.800 --> 0:13:00.240 have appeared on nearly one hundred campuses from coast to coast. 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:05.040 Their purpose to create confusion, raise questions, and spread doubt 0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:09.160 among our young people concerning American way of life. Quote. 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:12.079 He goes on to say that, quote today the Communists 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:15.079 are engaged in an intensive campaign to control the minds 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:19.440 and win the allegiance of American youth. Unquote. Charlie was 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:23.480 the counter to that. He was going to hundreds of 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:30.160 schools coast to coast and preaching Americanism, God, good cultural values. 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:34.000 And he was so effective in that. And think about it, 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:36.280 you know, he was born in nineteen ninety three, and 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:40.000 that was a report from nineteen sixty. This was decades 0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:43.679 in the making, and Charlie came in and was a 0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:47.640 pioneer in a lot of ways, Titan for Liberty to 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:51.520 go and basically unravel all of that into Isabelle's point 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:54.880 and to your point, Sean, preaching good and doing what 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:59.640 was right and creating this healthy, friendly debate, This platform 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:03.840 for us, and that's why he was so effective and 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:04.880 so powerful. 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:07.680 Well, I will say this about both of you, having 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:11.680 gotten and know you both now, both Isabelle and Catalina, 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:17.000 both of you have you know that that same energy, passion, 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:21.840 the same principles, the same values, the same courage as Charlie. 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:24.040 And I know that both of you will play a 0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:27.920 big role in carrying on his mission.

It's incalculable how important it 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.800 is that they hear the message that both of you 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:41.840 are espousing. 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.680 Thank you, Sean, and thank you for honoring our beautiful 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:45.680 friends legacy. 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:47.000 It's just my pleasure. 0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:50.720 I knew him pretty well and I'm heartbroken over the 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:51.200 whole thing. 0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:54.200 It really is heartbreaking.

One 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:13.640 way to save money not sacrifice service is switched to 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:16.760 my cell phone Provider, a veteran owned company known as 0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:20.280 pure Talk.

Did they ever forgive ten 0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:48.880 million dollars in veteran debt? Did your company ever raise 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:52.000 a half a million dollars to prevent veteran suicide?

Go get unlimited talk 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:07.800 and text, plenty of data. Just twenty five bucks a month, 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:10.800 saving the average family of fortune.

I see, I don't 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:31.560 know It's sort of like when when Charlie Kirk was 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:35.160 being interviewed by Gavin Newsom, I have no idea where 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:36.680 the words latinx came from. 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:37.960 I had never heard it before. 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:40.200 I Meanwhile, then we went back in the archives and 0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:43.840 we found example after example, never supported the right of 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:46.240 men to play women's sports, and then we found example 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:49.880 after example. I don't know, maybe liberals have bad memories. 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:56.280 Latest example that idiot governor from Illinois, JB. Pritzker saying 0:16:56.640 --> 0:17:00.760 I've never called republicans Nazis. Well, we'll play that and 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:02.920 then we'll play him calling republicans Nazis. 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.240 Listen, that is completely false. 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:09.120 I have never called republicans Nazis. Everything that he has 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:14.480 done has been tearing down constitutional democracy, and that's what 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:17.560 happened in Nazi Germany. It doesn't take very long to 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:21.479 tear apart a constitutional republic. Indeed, the Nazis did it 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:28.040 in fifty three days, and our democracy is almost as fragile, 0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:31.960 and we're seeing it right now. The dangers that we 0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:37.760 saw in you know, Nazi Germany, especially in the earliest 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:41.440 days of Nazi Germany, are the dangers that we need 0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:44.520 to react to now. It's a five alarm fire. 0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:49.360 Everyone, it's a five alarm fire that you know. All 0:17:49.440 --> 0:17:55.199 these radical leftists just lie, you know, with unbelievable you know, 0:17:55.400 --> 0:18:01.119 casualness and just utter hypocrisy. Get to our busy phones. 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:04.800 Tyson is in Louisiana, Tyson High. How are you glad 0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:05.359 you called? 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:08.360 Hey, Sean super gad that you were able to take 0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:10.080 my call. It's an honor to talk to you. 0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:13.000 Thank you, the honor of mine. 0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:16.320 Yeah. Two quick points. I'm a thirty four year old 0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:19.800 here in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. A lot of similarities in 0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:22.800 my life as Charlie Kirk, you know, where both young 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:26.760 men trying to raise our families the right way, the 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:29.119 Christian way, if you will, and I think both of 0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:32.719 us are. I mean, I'm not as loud as he is, 0:18:32.840 --> 0:18:35.240 but I like to tell people how it is. You know, 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:37.480 if you're gonna ask me out my faith and my beliefs, 0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:39.479 I'm gonna be blunt with you. I don't know if 0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:44.760 that's just a Southern thing, but that's my first point. Secondly, 0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:48.440 I do think that there is I don't know how 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:51.560 you put light on this situation, but I read an 0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:55.840 article Monday that said there was thirty two thousand Turning 0:18:55.880 --> 0:19:00.240 Point USA chapters that were being applied. For a little 0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:03.600 bit of homework myself, and if we have it is. 0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:07.120 Right, thirty two thousand requests for new Turning Point USA 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.360 campus chapters, thirty two thousand. 0:19:10.160 --> 0:19:12.720 I read read that, and I do just a little 0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:14.280 bit of homework. I know you don't have to be 0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:17.159 a university to hold a Turning Point USA chapter. But 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.800 just if we have six thousand universities, that's over, you know, 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:26.119 six thousand applications of university and that just shows that 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:28.760 God is working. And you know, I think it's important 0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:33.040 that as conservatives, as Christians, we remember that it is 0:19:33.119 --> 0:19:36.040 a scary, scary world that we live. And know when 0:19:36.480 --> 0:19:40.679 you know, these people can assassinate somebody, whether it be 0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:44.560 Charlie Kirk or you know, Brandon Thompson, the CEO from 0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:49.720 the United Healthcare and just celebrate death. But just want 0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:52.439 to encourage you and encourage your audience that God is 0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:56.080 good and that we have we have the higher ground 0:19:56.119 --> 0:19:59.760 because crisis on our side, but man, it's scary. 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:04.560 Well, I want to encourage everyone to do exactly what 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:08.200 you're doing, and that is, you know what, don't be timid, 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:14.240 don't be afraid and and you know what, I think 0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:18.760 this is a moment where conservatives now can be just 0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:23.880 as plain and outspoken, you know, with patience and love 0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:28.080 and kindness. Don't don't be like the radical left and 0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:32.040 live by example and not. You know, it's gotten to 0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:34.440 the point where I think kids got afraid to even 0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:40.960 mention their belief in God and mention their faith. And 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:46.159 yet we you know, most Americans are faithful people. We 0:20:46.280 --> 0:20:49.919 are generally of very good people. We're not a perfect people. 0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:53.120 Christians are not perfect people. As a matter of fact, 0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:57.320 that the prerequisite to first become a Christian is to 0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:02.480 admit that you're wrong, Admit you know and acknowledge or 0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:09.320 fallen state, Acknowledge that you need forgiveness, acknowledge that you 0:21:09.440 --> 0:21:13.159 are incapable of changing yourself. The word repentance comes from 0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:14.600 the Latin to change one's heart. 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:16.840 And and it's. 0:21:16.640 --> 0:21:20.800 A pretty There's there's been false perceptions of Christianity that 0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:21.360 are out there. 0:21:21.400 --> 0:21:23.480 All Christians wants to proselytize. 0:21:23.720 --> 0:21:25.560 If you want to ask me about my faith, I'll 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:30.520 tell you what I believe, and I don't I would 0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:32.840 not be here today. I can tell you with a 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:36.639 certainty without it. That's how important it is to me 0:21:36.720 --> 0:21:39.800 in my life, and it just is at the core 0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:43.359 of who I am. Again, not perfect, all of send 0:21:43.440 --> 0:21:47.320 them fallen short, my friend, but I'll explain my journey. 0:21:47.800 --> 0:21:49.640 I was just gonna say, there's a saying out there. 0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:52.280 It's a you cannot heal wound by saying it's not there. 0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:55.480 And that's really the only thing that separates Christians from 0:21:55.480 --> 0:21:58.040 others is that we understand we have the wound. We 0:21:58.119 --> 0:22:00.399 understand we need healing, and that's where Christ comes in. 0:22:01.280 --> 0:22:05.560 And so you know, continue to you know, praise God 0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:08.840 if you will, and you know, keep putting Christ first, 0:22:08.920 --> 0:22:11.840 and just know that there's there's hope for us. You know, 0:22:11.880 --> 0:22:14.439 there's there's hope in this scary world. 0:22:14.960 --> 0:22:17.520 There's a lot of hope in the scary world. You know, 0:22:17.760 --> 0:22:20.359 one thing is a Christian that you do understand is 0:22:20.400 --> 0:22:24.800 there's good and there's evil. But we also know how 0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:28.520 the story ends. We know it's going to get bad, 0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:31.040 because the Bible is very clear about that in the 0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:34.800 last days, but we also know how the story ends. 0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:40.240 And you know, as we've seen so much vile, future, disgusting, 0:22:40.359 --> 0:22:44.760 repulsive comments of the Left's also we've also seen incredible 0:22:44.800 --> 0:22:49.080 acts of kindness and generosity and an awakening in the 0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:54.399 country that is inspiring, you know, and I I maybe 0:22:54.400 --> 0:22:56.520 should focus more on that aspect of it. 0:22:57.680 --> 0:22:58.040
