There 5 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 3: was a time when we could take them at their word. 6 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: That time is long past, and according to DHS now, 7 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 2: the border agents there were conducting a quote unquote targeted 8 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: vehicle stop of this married couple.

Agent were injured 13 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 2: in this the married couple. They were both shot, one 14 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 2: in the arm, one in the chest.

There have been 122 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 14: a few false starts because their rhetoric is like they'll 123 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 14: use aggressive rhetoric, but they don't quite cross the line 124 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 14: of taking action. But what they keep doing is they 125 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 14: keep delegitimizing ICE. They're calling them masked thugs. They say 126 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 14: they're kidnapping, stop bot nice yeah, Gestapo, they say that 127 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 14: they are committing crimes, and increasingly the goal is to 128 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 14: basically say that ICE is a criminal organization and they 129 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 14: will treat them as a criminal organization. 130 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: And I think what. 131 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 14: We're building up to is they want to they want 132 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 14: to engineer a constitutional crisis where they can just overtly 133 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 14: defy the enforcement of federal law, which is what ICE does. 134 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 14: ICE is enforcing federal immigration law by arresting and deporting 135 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 14: people who are illegally in the un that is what 136 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 14: they are doing. And like it started with, I've seen 137 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,119 Speaker 14: this play out over basically decades of my life because 138 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 14: it was originally just oh, that it causes harm to communities. 139 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 4: If you arrest people. 140 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 14: Oh, if you if you go to their church, or 141 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 14: if you do like if you arrest them in certain contexts, 142 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 14: then they won't go to hospitals, or they won't call 143 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 14: the police for other crimes. But increasingly just the attitude 144 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 14: is actually, these people all everyone in the world has 145 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 14: the right to be in America, especially if they're a 146 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 14: foreign rapist, gangster, criminal especially, and any attempt to deport 147 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 14: them or arrest them, they will not collaborate with that. 148 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 14: We already see that with the sanctuary city stuff. They 149 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 14: won't keep anyone locked up so that ICE can detain them. 150 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 14: And now just say, well, actually, ICE just can't detain 151 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 14: them at all. And where we're getting closer to this 152 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 14: is we have them now just basically saying they're going to. 153 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 4: Arrest ICE agents possibly. 154 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 13: And this is this is Philadelphia's sheriff Rachelle billal Dei 155 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 13: hire out of Philadelphia, and by the way, in this clip, 156 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 13: she's praising the Da, who's a Soros funded da absolutely 157 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 13: lawless head of this city. It's incredible to the extent 158 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 13: to which these municipalities have been radicalized. It's a longer clip, 159 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 13: but she says to Ice, you don't want this smoke. 160 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 4: So she's like. 161 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: Talking like a thug. 162 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 4: Well, let's just show the club. 163 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: She's behaving like one, and. 164 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 13: She is forcing it.

The 337 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 14: left is an anti civilization churse. They want to Ultimately 338 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 14: they want to bring down the United States. They might 339 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 14: not really fully think that out all the time, but 340 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 14: their principles always militate towards this. 341 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 4: They this is what ultimately caused the Biden Wave. 342 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 14: The Biden Wave was it was almost an accident of 343 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 14: left wing thought that at this point they cannot articulate 344 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 14: any valid reason to keep any person out of the 345 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 14: United States. 346 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 4: They just can't. It doesn't work in their moral worldview. 347 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 4: They view the. 348 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 14: United States as illegitimate as a country basically because it 349 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 14: was wealthy and successful and because it was European, and 350 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 14: so there's no valid reason for it to exist or go. 351 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 4: Anyone can come here and they can do whatever they want. 352 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 13: Yeah, it's a really like the more you listen to this, 353 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 13: And I've been studying, I've been spending a lot of 354 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 13: time late at night, early in the morning watching and 355 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 13: reading a lot of these you know comment by like 356 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 13: far left activist groups. These are the organizing groups that 357 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 13: are putting on the protests, the mostly peaceful protests, and 358 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 13: you know, setting up their autonomous zone. Now in Minneapolis, 359 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 13: it was just like they had in Seattle, Chas now 360 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 13: it's mass and they talk about a couple of different things. Repeatedly, 361 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 13: it's colonialism, it's Native and indigenous people, people. 362 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 14: Of color, big focus on delegitimizing white Western white people. 363 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 13: It is a anti white movement, and ultimately it comes 364 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 13: down to this. They believe that the wealth, power and influence, 365 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 13: whether that's militarily or economically, that has been amassed by 366 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 13: European civilization over the last two three, four hundred years 367 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 13: is illegitimate. They believe in a zero sum game. They 368 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 13: believe that the West has become rich off the back 369 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 13: of backs of people of color, slaves, indigenous people, and 370 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 13: stolen life. 371 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 4: This is how life is and they want to They 372 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 4: literally want to take it back. 373 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 13: This is why when we talk about Sea Weaver yesterday, 374 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 13: if you missed it, check it out. We talked about 375 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 13: Sea A Weaver or the new Tenant's Rights Director or 376 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 13: whatever from Mom Donnie in New York City. 377 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: And she is a white woman that is. 378 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 13: Vehemently, militarily opposed to property ownership. She is going in 379 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 13: to destroy the tenants in New York City because she 380 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 13: thinks that rent control and shared property is somehow the 381 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 13: panacea of all the ills that are in New York City. 382 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 13: This is why people like Sea Weaver are such idiots. 383 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 13: This is why Nancy Pelosi is an idiot. This is 384 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 13: why Chuck Schumer is an idiot. This is why all 385 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 13: of these people that are think that they can bend 386 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,120 Speaker 13: the knee, that they can kiss the ring, and they 387 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 13: can play along and somehow they'll be eaten last by 388 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 13: this mob of hateful vigilantes, this clannish tribalist movement, driven 389 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 13: by vengeance, driven by jealousy, that they think that they're 390 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 13: going to get ahead in this, that they can somehow 391 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 13: make common cause with these people. You can't. They want 392 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 13: you gone. They want to destroy the United States of America. 393 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 13: You are standing in their way. We are standing in 394 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 13: their way. And this is ultimately why the conservative movement 395 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 13: in the United States must prevail, because we are the firewall. 396 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: For Western civilization. 397 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 13: I really believe that voter ID in California next will 398 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 13: be right back. 399 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 18: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm 400 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,880 Speaker 18: Terrence Bates. It has been a busy and a dangerous 401 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 18: week for immigration agents, as Wednesday's deadly shooting in Minneapolis 402 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 18: was followed up by a double shooting in Portland on Thursday. 403 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 18: Once again A car was involved in this Portland situation, 404 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,360 Speaker 18: and agents say the driver tried to run them over 405 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 18: while speeding away from the scene. Once those agents approached 406 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 18: the car, The Department of Homeland Security says the passenger 407 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 18: was an illegal alien from Venezuela who's affiliated with the 408 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 18: trans National Trenda a wigor prostitution ring. While the duo 409 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 18: initially got away from the agent's local police ultimately track 410 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 18: them down in the nearby neighborhood. It's the latest black 411 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 18: eye for Portland, which of course has had a contentious 412 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 18: relationship with National guardsmen and now federal agents who are 413 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 18: deployed to that city under President Trump's immigration and. 414 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 7: Law enforcement crackdown. 415 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 18: Portland's mayor and the city council are calling on ICE 416 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 18: to end all operations in the city until the full 417 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 18: investigation is complete. At this point, it looks like the 418 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 18: Portland Police Department will head up that investigation into the shooting. Meantime, 419 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 18: it appears the FBI is now exclusively investigating Wednesday's deadly 420 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 18: shooting in Minneapolis. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension claims 421 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 18: that it had been conducting a joint investigation with the Bureau, 422 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 18: but the FBI quote reverse course and is no longer 423 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 18: granting the BCA access to case materials, seen evidence, or 424 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 18: investigative materials and interviews. Local authorities say not having access 425 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 18: to all of the evidence will make it difficult to 426 00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 18: complete a thorough and independent investigation. Thursday, President Jadie Vance 427 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 18: also blasting the media for its coverage of the shooting, 428 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 18: specifically the implication that the ICE agent involved wasn't justified 429 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 18: in the shooting, as. 430 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 9: This was an attack on federal law enforcement, This was 431 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 9: an attack on law and order. This was an attack 432 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 9: on the American people. The way that the media by 433 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 9: and large has reported this story has been an absolute 434 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 9: disgrace and it puts our law enforcement officers at risk 435 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 9: every single day. 436 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 18: We now also know that the ICE officer involved in 437 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 18: this shooting was part of a specialized unit called the 438 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 18: Enforcement and Removal Operations Special Response Team. 439 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 7: That's a great check of your headlines. 440 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,640 Speaker 4: Fact First, America First. 441 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 12: Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. 442 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 13: All right, Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.

Here to help us unpack 453 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 13: that story.

Yeah. 459 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 13: Absolutely, So, why don't you give our audience kind of 460 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 13: a broad view of this effort. We know it's grassroots because, 461 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 13: let's be honest, Voter ID would not be coming from 462 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 13: the top down in California. This is a bottom up, 463 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 13: grassroots led movement and it's had tremendous success. 464 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 19: Congressman absolutely After this last election, we lost two of 465 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 19: our campaigns, one to up in Northern California. John Jrte 466 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 19: lost by less than two hundred votes, and then Michelle 467 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 19: Steele who lost by less than seven hundred votes, and 468 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 19: we knew that we had a problem. You know, we're 469 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 19: the wild West of election law here in California. 470 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 4: Everything goes motor voter. 471 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 19: We register everybody, including non citizens and people who should 472 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 19: not be voting or voting in our elections. And we 473 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 19: need to make sure that we get a voter ID 474 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 19: law put on the ballot. And let me tell you 475 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 19: the Orange County Lincoln Club, I got to give them 476 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 19: a lot of credit. Carl Demayo, who's doing a grassroots 477 00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 19: operation also, but the Orange County Link Club raised the 478 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 19: first one million dollars all of us. You know, we're 479 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 19: trying to raise money to do this. It's expensive. We've 480 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 19: gotten a million signatures so far. We need eight hundred 481 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 19: and seventy three thousand signatures verified and there's a lot 482 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 19: of Shenanigans are probably going to take place, so we 483 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 19: want to make sure we have well over that. So 484 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 19: we're going looking to get a million, two one hundred 485 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 19: thousand signatures to make sure that this is on the 486 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 19: ballot next November. 487 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 13: So to reiterate, you have a million, you just crossed 488 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 13: the million mark. We need to get to one point 489 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 13: two million signatures by March fifteenth. 490 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 19: Correct, that's correct, and we need to verify eight hundred 491 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 19: and seventy three thousand. So we want to be way 492 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 19: over to make sure that there's no mistake that this 493 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 19: is on the ballot in next to the next November election. 494 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 13: Yeah, Blake, did you have a question. I'm just I 495 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 13: guess I was. I was thinking about a few things. 496 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 14: The first thing that came to mind is this will 497 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 14: probably be the first time in California history they'll really 498 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 14: aggressively go through rename. See if they're a citizen. Correct, 499 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 14: this person's ill? Yeah, you might see that. The other 500 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 14: thing I wonder about. So obviously we support this. Obviously 501 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 14: it will help, but as you mentioned, California, they have 502 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 14: motor voter, California gives IDs two people who are illegals. 503 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 4: They do a lot of bad things. 504 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 14: They have very generous mail voting laws, very generous ballot 505 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 14: harvesting laws. 506 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 4: How much will this help as long as all those 507 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 4: other proposals are. 508 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 14: In play, and is there any hope of maybe overturning 509 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 14: those through initiatives or how should we look at it 510 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 14: big picture? 511 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 19: Well, you're right on all of that. This is the 512 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 19: first step is to get this voter ID done. That's 513 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 19: a big step, you're right. That's why we want to 514 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 19: get a million, two hundred thousand signatures to make sure 515 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 19: that there's no question that we can verify eight hundred 516 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 19: and seventy three thousand signatures to make sure this is 517 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 19: on the ballot. It's not going to fix every problem, 518 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 19: but it's a big step forward for the state of California. 519 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 19: Trust me, I've seen this thing go out for a 520 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 19: long long time. So we have a chance finally to 521 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 19: make an improvement an election law in California and clean 522 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 19: up the voter rolls, which. 523 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 1: Also is a problem. 524 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 19: You're right about ballot harvesting in California. It's crazy and 525 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 19: it's unfair, and we know that we've lost elections we 526 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 19: shouldn't have lost, probably at least two last election, probably 527 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 19: three in my mind. I think Mike Garcia also is 528 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 19: subject to that. But so we need to make sure 529 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 19: that we get this passed next November. So we're going 530 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 19: to try to raise the last part of it. California 531 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 19: is for voter ID. The website is voter id California 532 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,719 Speaker 19: dot org. I would you know anything that people can 533 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 19: do to help this out get it over the finish line. 534 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 14: And I want to say for anyone watching this, we 535 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 14: have a lot of California fans of this show. 536 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 4: They would email in all the time to Charlie. Charlie, 537 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 4: when will Turning Point save California. Charlie get involved in 538 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,239 Speaker 4: the governor's race. Get involved in this race. We can 539 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 4: turn it around. 540 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 14: All of you people who email us had better of 541 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 14: signed this petition period, Go sign it right now. 542 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 4: If you haven't. 543 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: Well and so you're calling you out. 544 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 13: You can't sign it online, but you can go to 545 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 13: that URL if you live in the state of California, 546 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 13: and you can request a signature form. 547 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: So do it right now. 548 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 13: You have till March fifteenth, but it's going to take 549 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 13: time for them to send it to you for you 550 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 13: to fill it out get it back. So go to 551 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 13: voter idca dot org right now. If you don't live 552 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 13: in the state of California, chip in. They need to 553 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 13: raise I think another million million and a half to 554 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 13: get this over the finish line. But this is this 555 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 13: is really a huge, huge step in the right direction. 556 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 13: I was just talking with one of our mutual friends. 557 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 13: Congressman Teresa Hernandez down at the Lincoln Club there and yeah, 558 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 13: and she owns she owns a Mexican restaurant, and she 559 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 13: was saying that during when the raids were happening from Ice, 560 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 13: she said she lost about fifty percent of her business 561 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 13: because and her theory was is that, you know, the 562 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 13: Hispanic population, even if they had green cards, we're not 563 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 13: coming out out of fear right now. You and I 564 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 13: know that that's ridiculous. But if you find yourself getting 565 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 13: to November of twenty twenty six and you haven't had 566 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 13: any problems with Ice or customs and Border patrol, you 567 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 13: think you're gonna risk the voter id portion of this 568 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 13: to cheat an election, even if they're offering you one 569 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 13: hundred bucks or gift cards to this or that. 570 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: I have to. 571 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 13: Believe that this is going to clean up a huge, 572 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 13: huge percentage of the problem. And listen, this is becoming 573 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 13: an issue front and center. President Trump is now truth 574 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 13: socially about it. He says he's personally going to be 575 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 13: running an effort to get this across the finish line. 576 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 13: Here's just a smattering of some of what Elon Musk 577 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 13: has been saying lately three fifty four, this is a 578 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 13: tweet that he put up no ID and mail in 579 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 13: ballots make fraud trivial. Both of those need to be 580 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 13: fixed to restore democracy. 581 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: Three fifty five. 582 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 13: Voter idea is essential to stop widespread at fraud. Three 583 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 13: fifty six. America should not have worse voter ID requirements 584 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 13: than every democratic country on earth. California, New York actually 585 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 13: banned use of voter ID. People are contesting that, but 586 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 13: it's essentially true. It is illegal to show your idea 587 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 13: in those states. The only reason to do this is fraud. 588 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,280 Speaker 13: I completely agree, and I want to give a little 589 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 13: shout out to Chef gruhle Down. There also a Huntington 590 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 13: Beach represent a resident speaking at the Huntington Beach City 591 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 13: Council three fifty three. 592 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,240 Speaker 20: You go to the DMV and you get a driver's 593 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 20: license or an ID, you register to vote. You do 594 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 20: not need any citizenship to do that. When you get 595 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 20: any benefits in the state of California, they send you 596 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,479 Speaker 20: a voter registration card. You do not need to show 597 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 20: any idea proof of citizenship. 598 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 7: To do that. 599 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 4: Then you're on the voter rolls. Those voter rolls they. 600 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 20: Keep adding people on over and over and over again, 601 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 20: and nobody's cross referencing id's on those voter rolls. So 602 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 20: when you talk to Bob Page on a local level, 603 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 20: or any local any local registrant voters, they're going to say, well, yeah, 604 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 20: we've got a really great operation on site. We're just 605 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 20: taking what Sacramento gives us in regards to the rules. 606 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 20: We can't ask for ID on site or we can't 607 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 20: cross reference ID. So the problem is in ours anymore. Right, 608 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 20: it's that diffusion of responsibility. This is one hundred percent 609 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 20: fact that you do not need to prove any citizenship 610 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 20: to get a voter registration in California. 611 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, it's become so extreme Congressmen that that 612 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 13: you know, these election workers are, they won't even ask 613 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 13: for it. 614 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: And so the next question is what happens? 615 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 13: You know, the first question is is the polling showing 616 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 13: that this would actually pass? If it passes, what sort 617 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 13: of enforcement mechanisms at the polling centers are in place 618 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,919 Speaker 13: to make sure that election workers are doing their job 619 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 13: and checking IDs? 620 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 21: Right? 621 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 19: Well, the polling is off the charts. Even a majority 622 00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 19: of Democrats are in favor of voter ID Republicans obviously, 623 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 19: great numbers ninety percent, the independent seventy percent. It's like 624 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 19: seventy percent overall are in favor of a voter ID 625 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 19: here in California. 626 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 4: So we're going to pass this. We're going to get 627 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 4: it on the ballot, will pass it. 628 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 19: Secretary of State obviously is in charge of voter lawns 629 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 19: in the state of California. We need a new secretary 630 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 19: of State. We've got a gentleman named Don Wagner, Republican, 631 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 19: running for that. I encourage everybody to look him up 632 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 19: and support him. I think California is coming to a 633 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:34,959 Speaker 19: point where it's that we're going to turn this state around. Look, 634 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 19: there's more Republicans in California than there is in any 635 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 19: other state in the Union. People forget that because of 636 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 19: what's happened in California over the last number of years. 637 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 19: But we're a big state, forty million people. It's a 638 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 19: wealthy state. We're number one in many many industries. People 639 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 19: who live here don't deserve to have a government we have, 640 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 19: so we will. It will be enforced. We did this 641 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 19: in Florida, and Florida turned the political system around. I 642 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 19: think a lot of it was because they have a 643 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 19: much more efficient voter system than we do, and then 644 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 19: we need to have the same kind of system that's 645 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 19: a state like Florida has. 646 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 13: Yeah, and that's what I've been told is that this 647 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 13: law is being written to emulate Florida's voter ID law, 648 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 13: which you know is the standard bearer in the country. 649 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: And it's great to know. 650 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 13: I'm told there's you know, tip lines if if local 651 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 13: you know election workers are not enforcing the law, not 652 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 13: checking IDs, you can actually part of this bill will 653 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 13: actually include an enforcement mechanism like that where they can 654 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 13: call in. 655 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: And I just want to give you some You're just 656 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: desserts here. 657 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 13: Congressmen, you are the I think the highest ranking forget 658 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:50,720 Speaker 13: me if I'm wrong, but you're the now the highest 659 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 13: ranking Republican in Congress, or maybe since we're in the majority, 660 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 13: you're the highest ranking Congressman from California that we have 661 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 13: in the in the House. So and you are now 662 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 13: running for reelection after Prop fifty in now the new 663 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 13: district of District forty one. Correct, tell us how people 664 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 13: can support what you've been doing.

We're running 671 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 19: a strong campaign. Seventy percent of this district is in 672 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 19: what I've represent now, and we're what I've represented in 673 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 19: just a few years ago, so we feel good about it. 674 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 19: It's it's difficult because they combined Republicans together because of 675 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 19: this Prop. 676 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 4: Fifty. 677 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 19: I did everything we could to defeat it, but we 678 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 19: weren't able to for a number of reasons.

But we've gotten emails asking 719 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 14: us to weigh in on it, and I think Charlie 720 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 14: would definitely be weighing in on it. 721 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 4: So uh. 722 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 14: There's been a spate of demonstrations against the Mullus, as 723 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 14: you might hear them called on TV Irani, ordinary Iranians 724 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 14: protesting in Tehran and a lot of secondary cities. There's 725 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,400 Speaker 14: a lot of various reports on the ground that they've 726 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 14: they've set government buildings on fire, they've supposedly taken control 727 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 14: of large cities. It goes back and forth on how 728 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 14: accurate all of that is, but what does seem to 729 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 14: be true is the regime is now trying to black 730 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 14: out a lot of communications. They're targeting the Internet, they're 731 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 14: targeting other means of communication to limit people's ability to 732 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 14: know what's going on and to try to keep control 733 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 14: of the situation. Notably, a week ago, President Trump said 734 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 14: on truth Social. 735 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: That image three sixty Yes, if. 736 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 14: Iran shots and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, 737 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 14: the United States of America will come to their rescue. 738 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 14: We are locked and loaded and ready to go. Thank 739 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 14: you for your attention to this matter, and I'm seeing 740 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 14: more of that. You're seeing some of that agitation that 741 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 14: the US should be ready to get involved. The son 742 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 14: of the previous Shah Raisa Pallavi, he desires to take 743 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 14: power in the country and he's been saying in America 744 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 14: should be ready to get involved. Obviously, people would ask 745 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,760 Speaker 14: us what Charlie would make of this. I think Charlie 746 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,359 Speaker 14: would still be skeptical of getting involved. He was very, 747 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 14: very wary of the Iran war crisis we had this 748 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 14: past summer. He was very happy that it was ultimately 749 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 14: resolved with one bombing run, nothing else. 750 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 4: I think he very much likes He likes it us 751 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 4: not to get. 752 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 14: Involved, and if we do get involved, it's the lightest 753 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 14: touch possible, you know, those quick in one strike and 754 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 14: it's over. I think he would have liked the Venezuela 755 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 14: raid for that same reason. It was one raid and 756 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 14: it's over. That's what I think his impulse would have been. 757 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 13: Yeah, and again going back one step. So this started 758 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 13: Apparently there's been a dramatic collapse of the Iranian currency, 759 00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 13: the real, soaring inflation to fifty percent in recent months, 760 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 13: which which you know, this country is still an upheaval 761 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 13: from twenty percent over four years of Joe Biden imagined 762 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,399 Speaker 13: forty to fifty percent in recent months, rising costs of living. 763 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 13: This quickly devolved into a broader political movement, including calls 764 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 13: for regime change, greater freedoms, anti government slogans. 765 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 14: And this is I guess how many how many reals 766 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 14: do you think you need to have one United States dollar? 767 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: Oh? Man, I like a thousand. 768 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 4: Nine hundred and ninety four thousand. 769 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 13: No, geez, wow, I was off by a magnitude of thousand. 770 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 4: You were off by literally what is that? Two three 771 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 4: orders of magazine? 772 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,439 Speaker 13: Yeah, that's huge, okay, So, uh, you know, protesters channa 773 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 13: against the ruling theocracy. This reminds me of like when 774 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 13: you look back at those images of Iran in the 775 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 13: seventies before the Shah was was kicked out that you know, 776 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 13: it looks almost like a Western nation, right, And you know, 777 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 13: I used to live in southern California. A lot of 778 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 13: Iranians Persian can munity down there are very you know, 779 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,879 Speaker 13: enterprising people, very productive people, very almost Western. Yes, they're 780 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 13: they're Muslim, but it's it's a different variety, right the 781 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:14,320 Speaker 13: the it's not it's the Shia Muslim as opposed to 782 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 13: the Sunni. 783 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,879 Speaker 4: It's a it's a different kind of. 784 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 13: Islam that they that they seem culturally to practice. 785 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,360 Speaker 1: But you know, this is what's interesting. 786 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 13: This Sha the Soun's the son of the last Shah, 787 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 13: which is Raisaplav. He's making actual so one hour ago 788 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 13: he's saying, this is an urgent and immediate call for 789 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 13: your attention. This is image three sixty four if you 790 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 13: want to put it up there. Last night you saw 791 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 13: millions of brave Iranians in the streets facing down live bullets. 792 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 13: Today they are facing not just bullets, but total communication blackout, 793 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 13: no internet, no landline. So one of the struggles that 794 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 13: we're having here, Blake, is that we can't even get 795 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 13: communications out of Iran. Really it's very limited, and we 796 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 13: don't know what's. 797 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 4: Ai what's not. 798 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 13: There was a building burning last night out. Yeah, it's 799 00:44:58,719 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 13: like a government building. 800 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,240 Speaker 14: If there is a deep fake of of a building 801 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 14: on fire. It's not super obvious immediately, yeah, if it's 802 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 14: not true, because they don't have a robust media, like 803 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 14: we could kind of tell something as fake because yeah, 804 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 14: everyone see it, Huran who knows. 805 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 13: Yeah, And we're gonna cover this.

But this is what he goes 809 00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 13: on Kamanie fearing the end of his criminal regime at 810 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 13: the hands of the people, and with the help of 811 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 13: your powerful promise, he's speaking to President Trump to support 812 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,319 Speaker 13: the protesters. Has threatened the people in the streets with 813 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,720 Speaker 13: a brutal crackdown.

I don't know what he's calling for, uh, 836 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: I mean military intervention. 837 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,280 Speaker 4: Last time we did this it was like Libya. And listen. 838 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 13: If there's a way for President Trump, even morally, to 839 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 13: support the people of around Dearaja up and take over 840 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 13: their own country, I'm all for it. I to your point, 841 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,359 Speaker 13: I do not want to invite. 842 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:57,839 Speaker 14: The reason for optimism. As you say, Iran is it long. 843 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 14: It's long been a major civilization it's a relatively it 844 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 14: is a it was a relatively more modern Middle Eastern 845 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 14: country before the revolution. 846 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 4: They have they're very talented people. 847 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 14: This is not like intervening in Central Africa or something 848 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 14: where it's just been backwards for a long time and 849 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 14: it's not likely to go well. Iran is it is 850 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 14: a country that is already in a lot of places 851 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 14: quite secular. 852 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 4: On the ground. You can meet Iranians who are from 853 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:28,240 Speaker 4: that country and they'll often. 854 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 14: Say, yeah, a lot of people don't take Islam terribly seriously. 855 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,720 Speaker 14: I'd say it's a lot less other than the regime itself. 856 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 14: It's a lot less robust than it might be in Egypt, 857 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,320 Speaker 14: or in Iraq or certainly in Afghanistan. So if you 858 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 14: do topple the regime, I think you're very likely to 859 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 14: get a secular, friendly government back. But people would always ask, 860 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,319 Speaker 14: you know, what would Charlie make of this? And I 861 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 14: think I would share with him. You get talked into 862 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 14: these interventions by being told it'll be easy and smooth, and. 863 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 4: It never and it never is. 864 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 13: Our two A Your questions coming upnext members dot Charliekirk 865 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 13: dot com. 866 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:19,360 Speaker 18: About ten minutes, Tarrence Bates here with your Real America's 867 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,799 Speaker 18: Voice news Break.

Local authorities say not having access to 874 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 18: all of the evidence will make it more difficult to 875 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 18: complete a full and and independent investigation.

And I 1000 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 14: think you saw Gavin Newsom was starting to take gestures 1001 00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:53,759 Speaker 14: in that direction in his interview. 1002 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,840 Speaker 4: With Charlie and they blew up at him really badly. 1003 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 14: And I don't think he's gone further on that on 1004 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:02,920 Speaker 14: that one either, but certainly on this anti ice radicalism, 1005 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 14: I really only see a one way ratchet about this, 1006 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,080 Speaker 14: at least from lawmakers. 1007 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 4: And I don't know how much of that is deliberate 1008 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 4: recklessness or deliberate extremism, and how much of that is 1009 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,799 Speaker 4: they're just afraid of getting lit up themselves, or they 1010 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 4: don't even fully realize what they're doing, like Tim Walls 1011 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 4: as an example. Tim Walls is just stupid. Tim Walls 1012 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:25,759 Speaker 4: is dumb. And so when Walls says. 1013 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:27,920 Speaker 14: We're at war with the federal government. I saw that 1014 00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 14: getting shared yesterday. I don't think he was literally doing 1015 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,040 Speaker 14: a whole secessionist I'm going to go with the war 1016 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:33,720 Speaker 14: of federal government. 1017 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:34,399 Speaker 4: I think he was just. 1018 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 14: Using dumb words because he doesn't recognize the sort of 1019 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 14: situation he's in. Yeah, and the implication of saying something 1020 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 14: like we'd war. I kind of interpreted that clip the 1021 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:45,359 Speaker 14: same way. 1022 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 13: I will say, you know, to Blake's point, there was 1023 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 13: this debate of which way the Democrat Party was going 1024 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 13: to turn. Were they going to be moderating their positions 1025 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 13: or were they going to be radicalizing their positions. And 1026 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:58,800 Speaker 13: it's very clear a year into the president President trump 1027 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 13: second term that they are radicalizing their positions at every turn, 1028 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,880 Speaker 13: and that the far left flank of the Democrat Party 1029 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,520 Speaker 13: controls that party. That's why Mom Donnie is ascendant. That's 1030 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:15,719 Speaker 13: why you see Democrat socialist mayors in Seattle, Chicago, New York. So, 1031 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 13: for all intents and purposes, Jacob Frey is also one 1032 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 13: of these people in Minneapolis, right, And they are controlling 1033 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 13: the party, and if you step out of line, you're 1034 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 13: going to take a lot of guff. And I will say, 1035 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 13: you know, when John Fetterman started speaking sense, which was 1036 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:33,960 Speaker 13: one of the largest ironies of recent. 1037 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 14: Maybe a little uncomfortable because you don't want that sense 1038 00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:39,760 Speaker 14: like ah did. He did, like the brain damage from 1039 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 14: his strokevative. 1040 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 13: Right, you want brain damage to make you dumb or 1041 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 13: not smarter. But in his case, I like to think 1042 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 13: of it as he was healing, he he became more sensible. 1043 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 13: So but the point is John Fetterman a bunch of 1044 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 13: his staff left, a bunch of I mean, he took 1045 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 13: a lot of internal pushback that you don't hear a 1046 00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 13: lot about, but he kind of took it on the 1047 00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 13: chin and kept going forward. 1048 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 1: So kudos to him. 1049 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 13: And he's the last sort of prominent sensible Democrat out 1050 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 13: there that is socially I would say probably you know left, 1051 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 13: I think economically left, but he's still a patriot. 1052 00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:17,760 Speaker 1: And I think that's the dividing line. 1053 00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:19,439 Speaker 13: And we've said it on the show before that you're 1054 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 13: either a movement that loves the country, loves what it 1055 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,840 Speaker 13: was founded on, loves our heritage, loves our culture and 1056 00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 13: has pride in it. Or you are somebody that ultimately 1057 00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 13: thinks America is somewhat illegitimate or all the way illegitimate, 1058 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 13: or it's all the way systemically a racist and bigoted 1059 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:34,200 Speaker 13: and oppressive. 1060 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:36,439 Speaker 1: But you know that that is the dividing line. 1061 00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 13: It's really some of the some of the people that 1062 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 13: you would consider conservative now aren't really even conservative. 1063 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 4: They are sort of just. 1064 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,080 Speaker 1: You know, not woke. 1065 00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:51,600 Speaker 13: I guess their team sanity. They believe in civilization. Still 1066 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 13: they believe in law and order. And that's about the 1067 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 13: dividing line. 1068 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 14: It's a thing that is Frankly, it's made it tough 1069 00:58:56,080 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 14: to always articulate a conservative agenda on things because often 1070 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:04,439 Speaker 14: is just defined by people who don't like the left, 1071 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:07,640 Speaker 14: at least in America. Yeah, and also, I'll be frank 1072 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 14: I would talk to Charlie about this. Sometimes the issue 1073 00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 14: the right has is they're sort of low self esteem, 1074 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 14: if that makes sense. I don't know what the right 1075 00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 14: term for it would be, but they are very eager 1076 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 14: to welcome people into their coalition, like if a celebrity 1077 00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 14: shouts us out, that sort of thing, and that can 1078 00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 14: actually it can make it a little too easy for 1079 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,479 Speaker 14: you to get taken over by by newcomers more or less. 1080 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, listen, I think it's great to welcome newcomers, 1081 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 13: but you shouldn't have them, you know, teaching the class right, 1082 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 13: they should be they should be amongst the pupils, in 1083 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 13: the in the in the in the desks, not at 1084 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 13: the front of the classroom. 1085 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 1: So I think that's the dividing line. 1086 00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 13: You just have to make sure that the people that 1087 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 13: are leading your movement have actually been tried, tested and 1088 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 13: found true real believers, right, So, Anthony, I don't know 1089 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 13: if that answers your question, but it does. 1090 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 4: It does appear to be. 1091 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 13: You know, the fact that we can't think of anybody 1092 00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 13: probably not a good sign. 1093 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 25: No, I don't know, no agree, and I couldn't think 1094 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 25: of anybody in it just because I'll be honest. There 1095 01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 25: was a protest at the border patrol in a town 1096 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 25: or two over from me and last night, So yeah, 1097 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:12,959 Speaker 25: where you based? 1098 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:15,600 Speaker 1: Rochester, New York is the location? 1099 01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 13: Yeah, all right, Yeah, it's it's interesting because you know, 1100 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 13: the far left of the Democrat Party is definitely in control, 1101 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 13: and I don't really see right. You know, It's funny. 1102 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 13: I got into a little bit of a Twitter debate 1103 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 13: with somebody that was like, you know, far left and 1104 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 13: Democrats are two different things, and it's like, okay, I guess, 1105 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 13: but you know who's really wielding the power. I'm not 1106 01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 13: sure how true that is anymore. But anyways, we thank 1107 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 13: you as always, Anthony. Great to hear from you. 1108 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:44,120 Speaker 1: We got ian. 1109 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 13: Ian unmeet yourself. You are up next on the Charlie 1110 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 13: Kirk Show. What's your question? 1111 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:51,479 Speaker 7: Hi, guys? 1112 01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:52,919 Speaker 4: How you doing doing well? 1113 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 1: Thank you, how about yourself. 1114 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 21: I'm doing well. Thank you for asking. I was down 1115 01:00:57,760 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 21: at anthest, so it was great seeing you guys again. 1116 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 1: Awesome, A good break. 1117 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 21: Yeah, but my question is, how do we address the 1118 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 21: difference of perspective on this Minnesota woman being shot? It's 1119 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 21: I just feel like both sides are seeing kind of 1120 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:13,960 Speaker 21: what they want to see. To an extent, I think 1121 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 21: there is an objective truth on what happened, but it's 1122 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 21: causing so much division. How how can we as a 1123 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:21,600 Speaker 21: country come together and move forward because I don't want 1124 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 21: this to become another George Floyd incident? And if we 1125 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 21: could also touch on the difference of reactions from Charlie 1126 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 21: Kirk's assassination recently to this Minnesota woman, you know they're 1127 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:35,880 Speaker 21: not holding a prayer vigil and you know coming together. 1128 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,000 Speaker 4: So that's just my two sentence on it. 1129 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1130 01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:42,960 Speaker 13: Well, and Anthony, I love the question.

I believe it's the police bodycam or. 1134 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:55,080 Speaker 14: The cell phone footage on Alpha News, but it looks 1135 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 14: like it could be bodycam shortage. 1136 01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:57,520 Speaker 1: Three eighty six. 1137 01:01:57,560 --> 01:01:59,400 Speaker 13: It's a forty five second clip which will take us 1138 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 13: right up to the break.

They're gonna guarantee interest rates under six percent. 1169 01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:01,320 Speaker 13: Hopefully those will even be coming down as interest rates 1170 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 13: go down. Inflation is doing great, by the way, and 1171 01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:08,120 Speaker 13: did you see that that the Atlanta Federal Reserve Board 1172 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,919 Speaker 13: is predicting five point four percent GDP growth in Q four. 1173 01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll see, I mean they notched it up. 1174 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:18,840 Speaker 13: But anyways, and by the way, labor costs are going 1175 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,440 Speaker 13: down with that, which is a driver of inflation as well, 1176 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,400 Speaker 13: so we'll see what happens there. Do you have a 1177 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:26,520 Speaker 13: co borrower, why REFI can get them released from the loan. 1178 01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:28,000 Speaker 1: You can give mom and dad a break. 1179 01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 13: You can even skip a payment every six months up 1180 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 13: to twelve times without penalty. Nobody else is going to 1181 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:33,160 Speaker 13: do that for you. 1182 01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:33,720 Speaker 1: You don't have to. 1183 01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 13: Ignore that mount of student loan statements on your kitchen 1184 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 13: table anymore. Call eight eight to eight, why refight thirty 1185 01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 13: four or whyrefight dot com? 1186 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,880 Speaker 1: Check them out? All right, Ian, we're continue with you. 1187 01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 13: We played that image that we're at that alternate angle. 1188 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 13: If you guys want to roll that as b roll 1189 01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 13: while we're talking about this. 1190 01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:53,200 Speaker 1: I here's my hope. Ian. 1191 01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 13: I think politically the left is captured by the activist base. 1192 01:04:58,120 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any getting around that, right. 1193 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 13: So politically they all have to, you know, tow the 1194 01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 13: party line and say this is the CASTAPO, this is 1195 01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:08,000 Speaker 13: the Nazis, and these are mass vigilante thugs, and they're 1196 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,880 Speaker 13: illegitimate police and they're not real, they're fake police, like 1197 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:15,160 Speaker 13: the Philly sheriff said. But I do believe that mass 1198 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 13: deportations are popular. I believe that enforcing immigration laws are popular. 1199 01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:24,680 Speaker 13: And I think that ultimately you just have to press 1200 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:26,560 Speaker 13: through the activist class. 1201 01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 4: You just have to bowl through this. 1202 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:31,080 Speaker 13: You have to keep going because this is a popular 1203 01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 13: political movement. And yeah, there's going to be protests, there's 1204 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 13: gonna be uprisings. I don't think you can find political 1205 01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:39,440 Speaker 13: common cause with these people. 1206 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:41,160 Speaker 1: You just have to tell them the way it's gonna be. 1207 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 13: Civilization will win, lawn order will win, and ultimately you're 1208 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 13: gonna have to you defeat them by winning. And I 1209 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,240 Speaker 13: just think that it's gotten so hardened into our silos 1210 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 13: with the with the activist base of the left, that 1211 01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 13: that's just the. 1212 01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:54,760 Speaker 4: Only way through. 1213 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:57,800 Speaker 13: I like to believe that the there is still a 1214 01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 13: normal middle of this country that's more worried about the 1215 01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 13: football game and about their golf outings on Saturday, and 1216 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 13: they kind of they're kind of checked out of the 1217 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 13: normal back and forth and they just know that, hey, 1218 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 13: we have laws, you got to follow them. 1219 01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:11,760 Speaker 1: So that's my take on it. 1220 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 13: That's my hope is that we do have sort of 1221 01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:16,880 Speaker 13: still a rational center of the country. We last hour, 1222 01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 13: we had Ken Calvert from California. You know, even in California, 1223 01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:24,360 Speaker 13: voter id Lot, despite all the back and forth and 1224 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 13: the vitriol and the hyperbole from the left about it 1225 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,760 Speaker 13: being racist or bigoted or whatever, is still sixty eight 1226 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:32,600 Speaker 13: to seventy one percent popular in the state of California. 1227 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 4: So go figure. 1228 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:34,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, Blake, if you have anything you want 1229 01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:34,919 Speaker 1: to ask. 1230 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:37,200 Speaker 4: So the qunya, the question was what can we do 1231 01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:39,240 Speaker 4: to bring the country together? And the truth is there's 1232 01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 4: not an easy answer. 1233 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 14: To that, because the idea of a strong united core 1234 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 14: in America has been greatly diluted by a lot of 1235 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 14: changes in America, by demographic change. So there's not nearly 1236 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:57,320 Speaker 14: the same sense of America as a shared country going 1237 01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 14: back a great distance a lot of people. If half 1238 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:03,919 Speaker 14: the country doesn't even trace its heritage back to World 1239 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 14: War Two, we could be at that point sooner rather 1240 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,760 Speaker 14: than later. There's not that same sense of a shared society, 1241 01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:13,520 Speaker 14: and especially when there's been a long term political project 1242 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:16,760 Speaker 14: to delegitimize the country itself and by extension, it's people. 1243 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:21,040 Speaker 14: So it's very common to just basically take an attitude 1244 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 14: of total hate and delegitimization to Americans who are in 1245 01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:27,720 Speaker 14: Middle America, who are in the South, all of that, 1246 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 14: and it just it's very hard to have something come together. 1247 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:34,320 Speaker 14: And you know a lot of people have asked us 1248 01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:37,480 Speaker 14: to respond to that Jasmine Crockett tape where she was saying, oh, 1249 01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:39,280 Speaker 14: how did we react after Charlie shooting? 1250 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:40,560 Speaker 4: I know how they reacted. 1251 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 14: A guy on his balcony across the street from us 1252 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,439 Speaker 14: played another one bites the dust while people were trying 1253 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 14: to pray. I don't know how you unite the country 1254 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,200 Speaker 14: with people like that. And the guy works for the ACLU, 1255 01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 14: and I think at some point you have to say, 1256 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,160 Speaker 14: we have to make sure we stand for something. It 1257 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 14: has to be an appealing more message to people, and 1258 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 14: you have to hope that you can win people over 1259 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,800 Speaker 14: to that and that can become a national core that 1260 01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 14: people can unite around. I think that is what Charlie 1261 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,920 Speaker 14: was fighting for. What Charlie was doing, he was planting 1262 01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 14: the seeds for a future possibly decades, hence, the seeds 1263 01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,400 Speaker 14: of patriotism, the seeds of Christian faith, something that could 1264 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 14: appeal to a large number of people, including young people, 1265 01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:29,080 Speaker 14: and you hope the strength of that moral message is 1266 01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 14: something that will win the day. But very truthfully, I 1267 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 14: don't see an easy way to get unity with people 1268 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:39,640 Speaker 14: who are saying kill ice officers. I don't see how 1269 01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,680 Speaker 14: you can easily have unity with people who celebrate the 1270 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 14: murder of Charlie. I don't see how you can easily 1271 01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:48,200 Speaker 14: have unity of people who say the United States is 1272 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:51,320 Speaker 14: fundamentally an illegitimate country and society. And I know that's 1273 01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:55,280 Speaker 14: a tough answer to give, but it's what I'm feeling. 1274 01:08:56,439 --> 01:08:57,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I think you're right. 1275 01:08:57,840 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 13: I think I was really well, said Blake, And I 1276 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 13: you know, I've reflected a lot on what Charlie was 1277 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:06,400 Speaker 13: actually doing a lot and what he You're I think 1278 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,680 Speaker 13: one thousand percent right that he was actually selling an 1279 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,320 Speaker 13: image of America and a vision of America that was 1280 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:15,799 Speaker 13: palatable to the to the broad core, to that seventy 1281 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:16,840 Speaker 13: five percent. 1282 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,000 Speaker 1: In the middle right, probably the middle right. 1283 01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:22,880 Speaker 13: But there was a there was a huge audience for this, 1284 01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:24,760 Speaker 13: and we saw it with the billions and billions of 1285 01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:28,600 Speaker 13: views he was reclaiming. It was like, so, if you 1286 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:31,400 Speaker 13: sort of think of what America is, it's an unbroken 1287 01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:35,040 Speaker 13: chain of generations that passes on the American dream, the 1288 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 13: belief in the experiment of America, the American Republic, from 1289 01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:41,800 Speaker 13: generation to generation. And Charlie noticed that the chain was 1290 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 13: getting broken with Gen Z millennials in Gen Z, and 1291 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:49,320 Speaker 13: he went out there and he he put those chain 1292 01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 13: links back together. 1293 01:09:50,320 --> 01:09:51,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, before we move on. 1294 01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 14: I think we should actually to get at the difficulty here. 1295 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:56,479 Speaker 4: We should A lot of people. This is going ultra viral. 1296 01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:58,920 Speaker 14: This clip, No, this clip of the woman who went 1297 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 14: to the renee go. I thought it was immoral. Let's 1298 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 14: play three eighty two. 1299 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:05,880 Speaker 26: So, I mean, I'm just walking around kind of just 1300 01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,599 Speaker 26: days side because I gotta. 1301 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:09,760 Speaker 4: I was like, I don't know if it's the right 1302 01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:10,080 Speaker 4: thing to do. 1303 01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 26: It feels kind of wrong being here in some way. 1304 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,640 Speaker 26: I don't know why, but yeah, I don't know. 1305 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 27: I don't know. 1306 01:10:18,320 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 26: Like I mean, part of it is being like a 1307 01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:24,439 Speaker 26: white woman that I'm privileged, and I have a lot 1308 01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 26: of privilege, So I feel like white tears are not 1309 01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 26: always something that's helpful or necessary when black and brown 1310 01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:35,760 Speaker 26: people have been experiencing this, yeah, for a long time. 1311 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,880 Speaker 26: This isn't new for them, and so I don't know 1312 01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 26: if that makes any sense. 1313 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,840 Speaker 14: It's very difficult to unite, to achieve unity with a 1314 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,200 Speaker 14: person whose thought process is that cooked. And I feel 1315 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,599 Speaker 14: bad for her because she's been taught to hate herself. 1316 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:55,759 Speaker 14: She badly hates herself. She needs help, she needs love, frankly, 1317 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:57,799 Speaker 14: but it is very difficult. 1318 01:10:58,280 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 13: It's the same thing where they say men can't have 1319 01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:02,320 Speaker 13: an opinion about abortion or whatever. It's like she's she 1320 01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 13: feels like her opinion is illegitimate. I mean, it's a 1321 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:09,800 Speaker 13: bad opinion. But you know it's her opinion. 1322 01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:12,040 Speaker 4: Agent, she'll still go on television. 1323 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:16,519 Speaker 13: Agency to that extent is truly truly baffling.

I'm 1329 01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 18: Terrence Bates. President Trump is continuing to crack down on 1330 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 18: drugs that are being brought into this country, following missile 1331 01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:46,519 Speaker 18: attacks on the suspected drug boats throughout the Caribbean. Most recently, 1332 01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:50,640 Speaker 18: the Commander in Chief ordered the capture of deposed Venezuelan 1333 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:53,840 Speaker 18: President Nicholas Maduro, who remains in the US jail at 1334 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:54,920 Speaker 18: the moment along. 1335 01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 7: With his wife. 1336 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,600 Speaker 18: Those moves have marked significant steps in the effort to 1337 01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:01,720 Speaker 18: rid the country of dangerous drugs. However, the Commander in 1338 01:12:01,800 --> 01:12:04,040 Speaker 18: Chief says he's ready to go even further. 1339 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 28: We've knocked out ninety seven percent of the drugs coming 1340 01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 28: in by water, and we are going to start now 1341 01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:16,679 Speaker 28: hitting the land. With regard to the cartels, the cartels 1342 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 28: are running Mexico. It's very very sad to watch and 1343 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 28: see what's happened to that country. But the cartels are 1344 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,840 Speaker 28: running and they're killing two hundred and fifty three hundred 1345 01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:28,160 Speaker 28: thousand people in our country every single year. The drugs. 1346 01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:32,800 Speaker 28: It's horrible. It's devastated. Families lose a child or a parent. 1347 01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:35,800 Speaker 28: I mean parents are dying too with drugs. So we've 1348 01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:37,960 Speaker 28: done a really good job. We're knocking it down. The 1349 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:41,840 Speaker 28: numbers are really getting to be They're always going to 1350 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 28: be too high if you have one person, but they're 1351 01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:44,639 Speaker 28: going down. 1352 01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:49,560 Speaker 18: And another headlines two people shot by ICE agents in Portland, 1353 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 18: Oregon are recovering this morning. Thursday shooting was the second 1354 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:57,040 Speaker 18: ICE involved shooting in as many days. Agents say the 1355 01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,599 Speaker 18: driver drove away from those agents as they approach the cars, 1356 01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:04,000 Speaker 18: so they fired. The Department of Homeland Security says the 1357 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:07,680 Speaker 18: passenger in the car was an illegal alien from Venezuela 1358 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:11,880 Speaker 18: who was affiliated with a transnational trende Arago prostitution ring. 1359 01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 18: Local police eventually tracked the couple down in a nearby neighborhood. 1360 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 18: It appears the FBI is now exclusively investigating Wednesday's deadly 1361 01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:25,799 Speaker 18: ice involved shooting in Minneapolis. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal 1362 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:29,360 Speaker 18: Apprehension claims it had been conducting a joint investigation with 1363 01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:33,040 Speaker 18: the Bureau, but the FBI quote reverse course and is 1364 01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:36,879 Speaker 18: no longer granting the BCA access to case materials, seen evidence, 1365 01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:41,760 Speaker 18: or investigative interviews. Local authorities say not having access to 1366 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,400 Speaker 18: all of the evidence will make it more difficult to 1367 01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:49,120 Speaker 18: complete a thorough and an independent investigation.

So he's probably gonna win that that race. 1415 01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:23,960 Speaker 13: He's gonna be one of the few Republicans on an 1416 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:27,559 Speaker 13: nationwide basis out of the out of the California that 1417 01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:31,559 Speaker 13: remain after Prop fifty. So as far as you know, 1418 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,720 Speaker 13: by the way, that people don't realize how expensive a 1419 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 13: petition drive of that magnitude is. 1420 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:38,720 Speaker 1: It's about seven million bucks so far. 1421 01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:40,840 Speaker 13: It's probably gonna cost them close to about nine when 1422 01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 13: they're all said and done, just to get that very 1423 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:47,000 Speaker 13: popular measure on the ballot in November twenty twenty six, 1424 01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 13: and hopefully that does pass and they are able to 1425 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,439 Speaker 13: withstand the negativity that's about to come their way when it. 1426 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:54,480 Speaker 4: Is now regarding the midterm candidates. 1427 01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 14: Uh one, you're just gonna see a lot of them 1428 01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,720 Speaker 14: here because we obviously give we had Andy biggs On 1429 01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:04,000 Speaker 14: as an example just the other day. But you'll see gradually, 1430 01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:06,920 Speaker 14: we're just gonna gradually escalate how many of these people are. Wait, 1431 01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 14: do you feel you see the is he quarterback? 1432 01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1433 01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:12,280 Speaker 4: He was or a kicker or something. 1434 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:13,360 Speaker 1: I saw some sort of sports. 1435 01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:15,879 Speaker 4: We're gonna ask him. Man, I'm gonna. 1436 01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm in Arizona. 1437 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:18,559 Speaker 4: That's another one. No, that's awesome. 1438 01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:21,639 Speaker 14: But uh, and but you'll see more of them. You're 1439 01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:25,080 Speaker 14: going to primarily see them, of course, in the races. 1440 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 14: We're most focused on Arizona because they're local, we can 1441 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 14: have them in and it's the state we care most about. 1442 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:32,559 Speaker 4: Swing states generally, the swing races, we're going to be 1443 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 4: very fixated on those. 1444 01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:34,840 Speaker 16: Uh. 1445 01:17:35,160 --> 01:17:37,959 Speaker 4: But we reach further afield, we'll probably. 1446 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:39,639 Speaker 14: End up talking to some We'll probably end up talking 1447 01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:42,240 Speaker 14: to some of these Indiana Indiana Republicans. We're gonna have 1448 01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:46,160 Speaker 14: to have unseeding state lawmakers there. It's you'll primarily see 1449 01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:48,840 Speaker 14: the races we're most involved in. But obviously we care 1450 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,240 Speaker 14: about the races all over the country and we will 1451 01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:54,400 Speaker 14: be doing what we can to raise awareness for them. 1452 01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:56,720 Speaker 14: But you know, currently we haven't had primaries in most 1453 01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:57,360 Speaker 14: of the places. 1454 01:17:57,720 --> 01:17:59,519 Speaker 13: I was gonna say, that's when you're gonna you're gonna 1455 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 13: see a lot of you stole my answer. The primary 1456 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:05,439 Speaker 13: process ten, I mean done best. It's supposed to be 1457 01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:09,880 Speaker 13: a sifting process, right, but what ends up happening in 1458 01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:11,760 Speaker 13: a general sense is they spend more money. There's a 1459 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 13: lot more media spend that raise money. You're gonna hear 1460 01:18:14,080 --> 01:18:16,639 Speaker 13: about them more. They're gonna be doing more media. So, 1461 01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:20,600 Speaker 13: I mean, the local GOP, state GOP in California is 1462 01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:23,920 Speaker 13: a pretty divided bunch. There's kind of the more moderate 1463 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:28,040 Speaker 13: wing versus the more maga wing, and it's a mess. 1464 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,320 Speaker 13: I'm not gonna lie, and especially in California, it's a 1465 01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:32,000 Speaker 13: bit of a mess. So you got to do your 1466 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:35,840 Speaker 13: best and be a consumer of the information and be 1467 01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:38,640 Speaker 13: deliberate and then send us emails freedom at Charlie Kirk 1468 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 13: dot com. We'll do our best to also listen to you, 1469 01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:44,880 Speaker 13: especially if you're a member. We see your emails come 1470 01:18:44,920 --> 01:18:47,639 Speaker 13: through all the time, trust me. So hopefully it was helpful. 1471 01:18:47,680 --> 01:18:50,240 Speaker 13: But you know, the strength of the candidate has to 1472 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:52,000 Speaker 13: shine through. They have to shine through, they have to 1473 01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:54,360 Speaker 13: cut through the noise. That is the challenge of a candidate, 1474 01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:58,479 Speaker 13: especially in this media landscape. Julia, you're next here on 1475 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 13: the Charlie Kirk Show. I mute yourself.

We were 1485 01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:29,000 Speaker 16: persecuted and we lost everything, job, schooling, we didn't comply, 1486 01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:33,040 Speaker 16: so we were the outcast of society and ran legally. 1487 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:37,120 Speaker 16: We came to the US and I went to school 1488 01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 16: for music and I graduated, I finished, and now it's 1489 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:44,680 Speaker 16: now what how can I stay and contribute to this 1490 01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:48,479 Speaker 16: amazing country not get sent back to communism? Basically, So 1491 01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:51,400 Speaker 16: my question is what do you guys think about H 1492 01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:54,040 Speaker 16: one B visas I had a company offer me one 1493 01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,240 Speaker 16: and I know that your show has talked about it 1494 01:19:56,280 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 16: a little bit, So what are your guys thoughts on that? 1495 01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:01,479 Speaker 14: Well, so, what we make of on H one b's 1496 01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 14: as a national policy. We've been critical of it because 1497 01:20:03,800 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 14: it's very clear in our opinion that H one b's 1498 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:09,800 Speaker 14: have been used. They've helped deskill America. We've gotten companies 1499 01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:13,160 Speaker 14: addicted to an alternative way of getting workers, so they 1500 01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:16,120 Speaker 14: don't need to train Americans as much. They can pay 1501 01:20:16,320 --> 01:20:20,960 Speaker 14: workers less. But obviously that's us talking on a national level. 1502 01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:24,720 Speaker 14: On an individual level, we can tell you are a 1503 01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:27,320 Speaker 14: great We would like more people, We would love to 1504 01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:29,800 Speaker 14: have people like you, and we would much rather have 1505 01:20:29,880 --> 01:20:32,960 Speaker 14: an H one B job go to you than to 1506 01:20:33,080 --> 01:20:35,200 Speaker 14: someone who will be a parasite, who will be a 1507 01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:40,240 Speaker 14: future daycare welfare entrepreneur or something. And so if you 1508 01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:42,360 Speaker 14: have that opportunity, we will one hundred percent encourage you 1509 01:20:42,400 --> 01:20:45,240 Speaker 14: to take it, because that's we have to always be 1510 01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:48,839 Speaker 14: reasonable with that. And you know, an individual good immigrant 1511 01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:52,120 Speaker 14: doesn't mean oh, we should have open borders, and a 1512 01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:54,360 Speaker 14: person who you could make a good use of an 1513 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,840 Speaker 14: H one B doesn't mean we should have H one 1514 01:20:56,920 --> 01:21:00,160 Speaker 14: b's as widely used as they are now or in 1515 01:21:00,160 --> 01:21:02,280 Speaker 14: the same way. But one percent, if you have a 1516 01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:04,280 Speaker 14: job that would require H one b's, just because we 1517 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,680 Speaker 14: are critical of that program doesn't mean you shouldn't take it. 1518 01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:10,560 Speaker 13: Yeah, and take advantage of your legal opportunity to to 1519 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:12,040 Speaker 13: use an H one B. 1520 01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:14,560 Speaker 1: And yeah, obviously there's a difference between the macro and 1521 01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 1: the micro. 1522 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:17,040 Speaker 13: You're gonna hear us criticize H one b's from a 1523 01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:21,200 Speaker 13: macro but as a micro, you know, individual level by 1524 01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 13: all means pursue that go with God. But yeah, I 1525 01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:27,639 Speaker 13: do hope the H one B program gets abolished entirely. 1526 01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:29,760 Speaker 13: I think it's I think it's been on the on 1527 01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:32,880 Speaker 13: the whole a very destructive policy for our country. 1528 01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:34,360 Speaker 1: What was your other question? 1529 01:21:35,439 --> 01:21:35,800 Speaker 18: For sure? 1530 01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:37,880 Speaker 16: Thank you guys, And by the way, I also agree 1531 01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:40,040 Speaker 16: with you. So I've been kind of like figuring out 1532 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 16: what i need to do next. But my next question 1533 01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:45,679 Speaker 16: is I do want to get married. But and I've 1534 01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:48,000 Speaker 16: met a lot of people in Canada and in the US, 1535 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:51,599 Speaker 16: I don't feel like I've missed my boat by any means. 1536 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:54,080 Speaker 16: I'm very much with my family and the Lord with this, 1537 01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:56,760 Speaker 16: so I'm not afraid of anything like that. But a 1538 01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:59,080 Speaker 16: lot of the guys that I'm meeting at church down here, 1539 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:03,480 Speaker 16: there's lots of guys, but they're very young and immature, 1540 01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:07,439 Speaker 16: and they are not financially ready to have families and 1541 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:09,519 Speaker 16: this kind of stuff. So I feel like, as the 1542 01:22:09,600 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 16: days go by, more and more I'm looking for someone 1543 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 16: older who's already financially stable, who I guess is just 1544 01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:17,920 Speaker 16: more mature than me, and I can look up to 1545 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 16: them that kind of thing. 1546 01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:22,640 Speaker 1: So I know that, Yeah, how old are you and 1547 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:23,280 Speaker 1: where do you live? 1548 01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,800 Speaker 16: I'm twenty four and I'm in Houston, Texas right now. 1549 01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:30,960 Speaker 4: Okay, continue, okay, twenty four. I love it, Miss the Bull, 1550 01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 4: you're twenty four. 1551 01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:36,240 Speaker 16: No, I don't think I did. I just I've met 1552 01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 16: a lot of people, and I'm sure some people. 1553 01:22:37,960 --> 01:22:38,920 Speaker 4: Are like, what are you doing? 1554 01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:42,160 Speaker 16: But anyways, so, yeah, I've met a lot of people 1555 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 16: and they're just they're really young, and I just want 1556 01:22:44,640 --> 01:22:46,800 Speaker 16: to meet someone who I respect, who's older than me, 1557 01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:48,559 Speaker 16: who I can look up to and I trust that 1558 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:51,479 Speaker 16: they can take care of a family. So do you 1559 01:22:51,520 --> 01:22:54,519 Speaker 16: guys think that women these days just have to hive 1560 01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:57,479 Speaker 16: a standard and like we're part of the problem, or 1561 01:22:57,600 --> 01:22:59,800 Speaker 16: I'm being part of the problem by having to high 1562 01:22:59,840 --> 01:23:04,920 Speaker 16: a standard, or is my concerns right? If that makes sense. 1563 01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:07,479 Speaker 14: I don't want to talk to at length about this 1564 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,559 Speaker 14: because I am not married, but I would say, especially 1565 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:14,640 Speaker 14: at your age, remember that marriage is not You're not 1566 01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,240 Speaker 14: getting married to a finished product. You yourself are not 1567 01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:21,200 Speaker 14: a finished product an ideal marriage. You are growing together 1568 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:24,639 Speaker 14: and you're spending your life together. So if there are 1569 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:28,200 Speaker 14: men who are not financially ready. Yet you should be 1570 01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:31,240 Speaker 14: able to use your mind and use a reasonable dating 1571 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,240 Speaker 14: process to think, is this a person who will mature, 1572 01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:37,320 Speaker 14: who will grow into someone who can support a family, 1573 01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:39,920 Speaker 14: And you can make that decision, like if they're in school, 1574 01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:43,800 Speaker 14: are they studying a serious subject? Are they getting a 1575 01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:46,400 Speaker 14: job that has long term potentially? You know you're in Houston. 1576 01:23:46,479 --> 01:23:49,200 Speaker 14: So a guy who's getting a job in the energy 1577 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 14: sector and he's getting a degree in petroleum engineering or 1578 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:56,000 Speaker 14: in finance, that's very different from maybe a guy who's 1579 01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:59,479 Speaker 14: twenty four and he just he doesn't have a strong 1580 01:23:59,560 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 14: sense what he wants out of life, and you can 1581 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:04,840 Speaker 14: tell he's not making long term plans. So I think 1582 01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:08,160 Speaker 14: you can look for those with younger men, and then 1583 01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:11,920 Speaker 14: you can still have reasonable confidence, especially if you are 1584 01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:13,840 Speaker 14: a good partner who is supportive, that. 1585 01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:17,599 Speaker 4: They will grow into a strong person. 1586 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:19,160 Speaker 14: I just throw that out there to say, don't be 1587 01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:22,479 Speaker 14: automatically dismissive of guys who are your own age just 1588 01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 14: because they aren't worth two million dollars and they don't 1589 01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:28,400 Speaker 14: own a house yet. And I've seen that, I guess, 1590 01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:30,439 Speaker 14: like I said, I'm not married, but I've seen this 1591 01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,800 Speaker 14: in my own family. My sister got married while still 1592 01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 14: in college. Obviously her husband was not wealthy yet or 1593 01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 14: he's still with me out, but he was a serious person. 1594 01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:43,600 Speaker 14: He has a good job now and I'm confident they 1595 01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:46,559 Speaker 14: will be successful in the long term. He didn't need 1596 01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 14: to already be super financially independent yet. 1597 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 4: That's what I'd say. But I should let Andrew talk 1598 01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:53,160 Speaker 4: about this because he's married. 1599 01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:56,479 Speaker 13: As the married guy of this. No, I actually don't 1600 01:24:56,479 --> 01:24:57,640 Speaker 13: have a lot to add. I thought that was a 1601 01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:00,519 Speaker 13: lot of wisdom there, Blake. I My wife and I 1602 01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:03,360 Speaker 13: got married when I didn't have, you know, two nickels 1603 01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:05,479 Speaker 13: to rub together, and it was the best decision I 1604 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:06,080 Speaker 13: ever made. 1605 01:25:06,240 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 4: And I would also just say. 1606 01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:11,320 Speaker 13: You know, maybe it's trite, but you know, you should 1607 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:13,439 Speaker 13: find somebody that you're attracted to and that you love 1608 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:15,479 Speaker 13: and that you share values with. You know, my wife 1609 01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,080 Speaker 13: and I, from a faith perspective, shared our values and 1610 01:25:18,840 --> 01:25:20,840 Speaker 13: you know, we prayed together and we went to church together, 1611 01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:22,840 Speaker 13: and there wasn't there was a zero conflict on that. 1612 01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:24,360 Speaker 13: And the other thing is we just like to do 1613 01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 13: the same things a lot of the time, and you know, 1614 01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:29,960 Speaker 13: these are basic things that sometimes we can overthink, you know, 1615 01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:31,120 Speaker 13: do you like doing the same things. 1616 01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 4: Do you like hanging out together?

All right. 1647 01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:13,840 Speaker 14: We just did that question on marriage and they just 1648 01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:16,000 Speaker 14: used you give love a bad namage? 1649 01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:17,400 Speaker 4: Or for music? 1650 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:18,160 Speaker 1: Is that for you? 1651 01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:20,120 Speaker 4: Who knows? Who knows? Maybe I do. 1652 01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:24,200 Speaker 13: So we're talking about the arts, and I guess film 1653 01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:28,360 Speaker 13: and creativity, and I really do believe, Gigi that there 1654 01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:30,240 Speaker 13: is something about you have to know the truth in 1655 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:32,720 Speaker 13: order to lead people to the truth. You have to 1656 01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:35,880 Speaker 13: be able to articulate with moral clarity. And this is 1657 01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:37,160 Speaker 13: one of the things that Charlie did so well. He 1658 01:27:37,200 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 13: had such moral clarity. It was things were not complicated 1659 01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:43,040 Speaker 13: for Charlie most of the time. And you know, I 1660 01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:45,680 Speaker 13: would just say that, you know, you kind of have 1661 01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 13: to marry a willingness to explore the frontiers of different 1662 01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:54,120 Speaker 13: ideas and be edgy while also knowing where you're leading people. 1663 01:27:54,360 --> 01:27:57,800 Speaker 13: And that's why conservatives sometimes struggle with bad art, and 1664 01:27:57,840 --> 01:28:01,479 Speaker 13: that's why liberals and progressive tend to make destructive art. 1665 01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:04,080 Speaker 13: And so the best forms and versions of that are 1666 01:28:04,160 --> 01:28:06,800 Speaker 13: with people with a moral clarity and a place where 1667 01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 13: they're leading people to go. And you know, I would say, 1668 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:12,439 Speaker 13: look at the Bible. The best narratives in the history 1669 01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 13: of the world all come out of the Bible. The 1670 01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:18,439 Speaker 13: archetypes are biblical archetypes because they speak to something you know, 1671 01:28:18,560 --> 01:28:21,720 Speaker 13: truly fundamental about the human experience. And so a lot 1672 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:25,880 Speaker 13: of the best films and TV shows are essentially tracking 1673 01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:30,719 Speaker 13: on a character arc or a plot arc what biblical 1674 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:34,000 Speaker 13: narratives have done right. The Exodus story is one of those. 1675 01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 13: The hero's journey is another one of those. And so 1676 01:28:37,040 --> 01:28:39,840 Speaker 13: so these are the stories that animate the human soul. 1677 01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:43,120 Speaker 13: And I think you can use those as a foundation 1678 01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:46,679 Speaker 13: to then build other narratives off of. And I think 1679 01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:50,240 Speaker 13: most of the successful Oscar winners throughout the years, at 1680 01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:53,880 Speaker 13: least classically and traditionally, have been essentially just a Biblical 1681 01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 13: narrative that has been adapted to some other context. 1682 01:28:57,200 --> 01:28:57,879 Speaker 4: Well done. 1683 01:28:58,000 --> 01:28:59,479 Speaker 14: I think we have two questions, yes still and Q. 1684 01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:02,480 Speaker 14: Let's get them. Let's go them through. Let's have Christine. 1685 01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:04,040 Speaker 14: Can you hear us? Unmute yourself? 1686 01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:05,479 Speaker 16: Hi? 1687 01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 27: All, thanks for having me on and thanks for all 1688 01:29:07,439 --> 01:29:09,759 Speaker 27: the amazing work you guys are doing. 1689 01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:11,679 Speaker 1: Thank you. 1690 01:29:12,240 --> 01:29:12,679 Speaker 30: Question. 1691 01:29:12,960 --> 01:29:15,640 Speaker 27: My question is I live in Oklahoma City. I'm a 1692 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,320 Speaker 27: mom of three young kids, and we just applied to 1693 01:29:18,400 --> 01:29:23,200 Speaker 27: two Christian Bible teaching schools for my oldest. And one 1694 01:29:23,240 --> 01:29:25,400 Speaker 27: of the things I remember Charlie talking about the most 1695 01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:27,280 Speaker 27: is how the greatest gift you can give a child 1696 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:31,200 Speaker 27: is a Christian education from a Bible teaching school. And 1697 01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:33,639 Speaker 27: I think he went on to say, and to also 1698 01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:35,840 Speaker 27: know that there is a God and they are not it. 1699 01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 27: And I think about that all the time when I'm 1700 01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:39,799 Speaker 27: racing raising my kids. 1701 01:29:40,840 --> 01:29:44,160 Speaker 4: But my question is the wait list for these. 1702 01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:47,679 Speaker 27: Schools just outnumbers the amount of spots that they have. 1703 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:52,320 Speaker 27: And so what can we do, just as individuals or 1704 01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:57,280 Speaker 27: as a greater movement to ensure that every child, every 1705 01:29:57,320 --> 01:30:00,160 Speaker 27: parent who wants a Christian education for their child, it 1706 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:01,160 Speaker 27: has the opportunity. 1707 01:30:02,880 --> 01:30:06,160 Speaker 14: Well, immerciful thing we have is we do live in 1708 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 14: a relatively free country, so especially in your state, I 1709 01:30:09,200 --> 01:30:11,439 Speaker 14: have to imagine it's easier than in most if you 1710 01:30:12,200 --> 01:30:13,960 Speaker 14: wanted to start a new one, I'm not putting it 1711 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:15,880 Speaker 14: on you to say you should start at school but 1712 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 14: ideally new schools do open to meet that demand because 1713 01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:24,680 Speaker 14: people do want these Bible, these Christian academies. The other alternative, 1714 01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:28,760 Speaker 14: of course, is there is homeschooling and such. I know 1715 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:31,160 Speaker 14: that is also a lot to ask of somebody, but 1716 01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:35,560 Speaker 14: that has gotten easier than ever. I will say, homeschooling 1717 01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:38,439 Speaker 14: thirty years ago was really challenging. You had to do 1718 01:30:38,520 --> 01:30:40,160 Speaker 14: it yourself in a lot of ways, and it was 1719 01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:43,040 Speaker 14: associated with weirder people not saying they are, but that 1720 01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:43,800 Speaker 14: was the association. 1721 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:45,720 Speaker 4: Now way more people do it. 1722 01:30:45,840 --> 01:30:49,559 Speaker 14: There's endless resources online for every subject, so you don't 1723 01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:53,200 Speaker 14: need to be an expert on everything. There's Christian resources 1724 01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:55,000 Speaker 14: that you can use for every subject. You can have 1725 01:30:55,000 --> 01:30:57,800 Speaker 14: a Christian math textbook. A friend of mine used one 1726 01:30:57,800 --> 01:30:59,760 Speaker 14: for his kids, and. 1727 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:01,720 Speaker 4: Could I just of course, we're running of time. 1728 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 13: So I recently had to go through something similar because 1729 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,320 Speaker 13: I had to move my family to Arizona. There was 1730 01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:09,360 Speaker 13: a wait list for the Christian school that we wanted 1731 01:31:09,360 --> 01:31:10,160 Speaker 13: to send our kids to. 1732 01:31:10,360 --> 01:31:11,200 Speaker 4: We toured like. 1733 01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:13,479 Speaker 13: Five or six of them, and you know, we just 1734 01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:16,080 Speaker 13: went and met with the leadership of the school and 1735 01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:19,360 Speaker 13: met with some of the teachers, and they actually made 1736 01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:22,000 Speaker 13: space for us, and so there's always that option, you know, 1737 01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:25,880 Speaker 13: to do a little old school politic and internally get 1738 01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 13: in touch with them directly, face to face conversations, explain 1739 01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:31,160 Speaker 13: why you would be a value add to that community. 1740 01:31:31,160 --> 01:31:33,719 Speaker 4: Because schools want good people, they want good. 1741 01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 13: Families, they want good parents, and so if they see 1742 01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:38,680 Speaker 13: in you the kind of people that they want populating 1743 01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:41,479 Speaker 13: their community and their student body, they're going to try 1744 01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:42,240 Speaker 13: and make space for you. 1745 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 1: They really will. 1746 01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:45,040 Speaker 4: And then on that note, it's already. 1747 01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:46,840 Speaker 13: Funny because there's been two offshoots from the school that 1748 01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:49,680 Speaker 13: we're now a part of, to Blake's point, that are 1749 01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:51,720 Speaker 13: starting their own. One wants to go more of a 1750 01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:54,160 Speaker 13: classical education direction. One wants to go a little bit 1751 01:31:54,200 --> 01:31:58,559 Speaker 13: more smaller school class sizes. So there's these offshoots from 1752 01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:00,280 Speaker 13: the ones the school we really are. 1753 01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:02,880 Speaker 14: We complain what we're blessed on the education front, that 1754 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:05,960 Speaker 14: public schools have gotten bad, but the actual options that 1755 01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:07,400 Speaker 14: are available to parents are. 1756 01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:09,160 Speaker 4: Better than ever. And in a lot of red states, 1757 01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:10,760 Speaker 4: you can now often I don't know if. 1758 01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 13: I'm looking at it right now, homeschool families qualified for 1759 01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:15,960 Speaker 13: a thousand bucks. You get credit amounts of five thousand 1760 01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:18,439 Speaker 13: to seventy five hundred per eligible student based on tuition 1761 01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:19,160 Speaker 13: fees and. 1762 01:32:19,080 --> 01:32:20,800 Speaker 4: Also vouchers for private schools as well. 1763 01:32:20,880 --> 01:32:21,920 Speaker 1: That's what it is exactly. 1764 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:24,800 Speaker 14: So our options are getting better and better, and so 1765 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:27,120 Speaker 14: we wish you the best of luck with that. 1766 01:32:28,160 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 4: One last one, one last question. 1767 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:33,840 Speaker 13: Here yep, and we got Greg, Greg, please I meet yourself. 1768 01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:35,760 Speaker 13: Welcome to the Charlie Kirkshow what's your question? We got 1769 01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 13: two and a half minutes there. 1770 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:41,240 Speaker 33: Okay, First, you had a show that talked about a 1771 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 33: bill pass in sixty five about limiting positions. I think 1772 01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:49,320 Speaker 33: Carmeo was the talking CARLW. 1773 01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:53,520 Speaker 4: Camew Oh, yeah, the data guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1774 01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:55,519 Speaker 33: Do you think did you bring that up to the 1775 01:32:55,560 --> 01:32:58,519 Speaker 33: Trump administration to see if they could change that anyway? 1776 01:32:59,360 --> 01:32:59,599 Speaker 1: Yes? 1777 01:33:00,360 --> 01:33:03,720 Speaker 13: Actually I actually connected him with some people that are 1778 01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:04,839 Speaker 13: working on healthcare stuff. 1779 01:33:05,439 --> 01:33:09,599 Speaker 4: So I definitely has windows into the admin. So which 1780 01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:10,000 Speaker 4: is great. 1781 01:33:11,120 --> 01:33:15,040 Speaker 33: That's good. Also, you talked about the sixty vote filibuster 1782 01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:19,360 Speaker 33: recently also, and I just saw Pete Ricketts from Nebraska 1783 01:33:19,479 --> 01:33:22,000 Speaker 33: Republican who said that that was part of the way 1784 01:33:22,040 --> 01:33:25,160 Speaker 33: the founder set it up to be. And I was like, really, 1785 01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:27,360 Speaker 33: these guys need an education. You guys need to get 1786 01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:28,679 Speaker 33: up there and get them. 1787 01:33:28,560 --> 01:33:31,000 Speaker 4: Right now, Rickets, what did he say? 1788 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 14: I apparently he said the founders wanted the filibuster to exist. 1789 01:33:36,040 --> 01:33:39,760 Speaker 13: Said, well, that is these are rules that existed that 1790 01:33:40,680 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 13: basically day back to I think the nineteen twelve or 1791 01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 13: some nineteen. 1792 01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:46,840 Speaker 14: Not even that, I think really modern filibuster as we 1793 01:33:46,880 --> 01:33:48,679 Speaker 14: know it is basically forty years old. 1794 01:33:48,760 --> 01:33:53,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, but the concept of the filibuster evolved starting with 1795 01:33:53,439 --> 01:33:54,960 Speaker 13: a rule change in like the nineteen twelve. 1796 01:33:55,000 --> 01:33:55,840 Speaker 4: I looked it up the other day. 1797 01:33:55,840 --> 01:34:01,439 Speaker 13: Anyways, you know, and we've we've actually been pushing Senator 1798 01:34:01,520 --> 01:34:04,000 Speaker 13: Lee's idea where you actually make them be on the floor. 1799 01:34:04,040 --> 01:34:09,000 Speaker 13: But apparently even then they could it that the way 1800 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:11,519 Speaker 13: that that rule is is, and I talked to some 1801 01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:14,799 Speaker 13: other senators is that it's just on a single issue 1802 01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:18,200 Speaker 13: of a bill. So you could invent infinity issues. Basically, 1803 01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:21,519 Speaker 13: it wouldn't fix the problem because you get through with 1804 01:34:21,560 --> 01:34:23,680 Speaker 13: one issue, they give up, and then they go into 1805 01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:25,960 Speaker 13: the next issue and they do the whole process all 1806 01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:26,439 Speaker 13: over again. 1807 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:28,800 Speaker 1: So it wouldn't fix the process. So you've got it. 1808 01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:31,160 Speaker 13: You got to sort of say the the the option 1809 01:34:31,240 --> 01:34:35,160 Speaker 13: that they're now looking at is maybe a limited nuking 1810 01:34:35,200 --> 01:34:35,960 Speaker 13: of the filibuster. 1811 01:34:36,560 --> 01:34:38,040 Speaker 1: But it's partial and it. 1812 01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:41,040 Speaker 13: Would it would only it would only apply to funding bills. 1813 01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:42,360 Speaker 1: This is their new idea. 1814 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:44,840 Speaker 14: That's how it's really been is so you used to 1815 01:34:44,840 --> 01:34:47,640 Speaker 14: have you could filibuster Supreme Court nominees. They got rid 1816 01:34:47,680 --> 01:34:50,599 Speaker 14: of that. You could filibuster lower judicial nominees. They got 1817 01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:54,160 Speaker 14: rid of that. Now they'd begin it. They're clearly chipping away. 1818 01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:57,479 Speaker 14: I suspect eventually the filibuster is going to die, and 1819 01:34:57,560 --> 01:34:59,400 Speaker 14: the matter is just who's going to do it and 1820 01:34:59,439 --> 01:35:02,000 Speaker 14: are they going to be able to get value out 1821 01:35:02,040 --> 01:35:03,960 Speaker 14: of doing it. And that's why we've always talked about that, 1822 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:07,080 Speaker 14: don't nuop the filibuster unless you will get something useful out. 1823 01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:10,000 Speaker 13: Of it, immigration, voter id those types of things. Thank you, guys, 1824 01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:11,760 Speaker 13: that wasn't asked me anything. That's a good one. Lots 1825 01:35:11,760 --> 01:35:16,200 Speaker 13: of good questions.
