TikTok is facing a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling that could spell the end of their service in the United States. Will President Trump be able to broker a deal with the government to keep TikTok operating?
00:00:34.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:17.000I just want to share some breaking news here.
00:01:20.000TikTok lost at the U.S. Supreme Court 9-0.
00:01:23.000They were challenging the constitutionality of the data aspect of the law.
00:01:28.000President Trump has been signaling for quite some time.
00:01:31.000The law allows for a presidential workaround for the president to basically bring the suspected companies into the table and potentially broker a deal with the federal government.
00:01:40.000And the president has been signaling for some time that he wants to find a way to save TikTok.
00:01:45.000And based on reporting, the president is considering whether or not to do an extension to the ban because it's scheduled to be banned as of Sunday.
00:01:53.000And from there, the president can potentially work out a deal, can bring TikTok in the room, either sell it or broker a deal with them or make sure the data is walled off, make sure the Chinese Communist Party aspect, that all kind of gets figured out and ironed out.
00:04:15.000I will say, though, but if it is there, President Trump now has an opportunity to fix it, though.
00:04:20.000And that's what's really cool, is that the president can, from what I understand, sign an extension, bring TikTok into the room, cut a deal, and address all the data concerns.
00:04:33.000And by the way, while we're at it, if we make TikTok live up to that data standard, shouldn't we also bring in the other social media companies and also make them do that?
00:04:43.000Just to be clear, we are asking TikTok...
00:04:46.000To operate at a higher level that we don't at other American companies.
00:04:50.000And what we're doing actually is we're driving American youth to the Chinese TikTok competitor Red Note.
00:04:55.000So look, I'm far from an expert on this.
00:04:57.000All I know is as a creator, I see the views.
00:04:59.000People are coming up to me that never would have been supportive of President Trump, saying I supported Trump all because of TikTok, because what you did there.
00:05:06.000And so we need to kind of figure this out.
00:05:09.000And I think that I trust President Donald Trump 100% to be able to bring all the parties together.
00:05:15.000Broker a deal, address all the privacy concerns, figure out the Chinese Communist Party element, because this app is likely here to stay in one way or another.
00:05:25.000It's been a great tool for us at Turning Point to be able to get our message out.
00:05:29.000And I will say this, there's three things that are true.
00:05:32.000President Trump will become president again on Monday.
00:05:35.000He would not have become president if it wasn't for the youth vote.
00:06:12.000We have been fighting to protect the constitutional right to free speech for the more than 170 million Americans who use our platform every day to connect, create, discover, and achieve their dreams.
00:06:24.000On behalf of everyone at TikTok and all our users across the country, I want to thank President Trump for his commitment to work with us to find a solution that keeps TikTok available in the United States.
00:06:36.000This is a strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship.
00:06:41.000As we've said, TikTok is a place where people can create communities, discover new interests, and express themselves, including over 7 million American businesses who earn the living and gain new customers using our platform.
00:06:55.000We are grateful and pleased to have the support of a president who truly understands our platform, one who has used TikTok to express his own thoughts and perspectives, connecting with the world, and generating more than 60 billion views of his content in the process.
00:07:10.000To all American users, thank you for making our TikTok community such a rich and vibrant space, for surprising and delighting us every day.
00:07:19.000Rest assured, we will do everything in our power to ensure our platform thrives as your online home for limitless creativity and discovery, as well as a source of inspiration and joy for years to come.
00:07:48.000We don't want China and the Chinese Communist Party, which is our greatest enemy, to be able to access our kids and be able to blackmail them and all that.
00:07:56.000But I saw the power of this platform the last year, and I think the president has a unique opportunity to strike a deal.
00:08:30.000I grew up believing in the rule of law, the fundamental rights granted, you know, to Americans that we have the right to a speedy trial, the right to face one's accuser.
00:08:40.000For those of us that just kind of common folk with no power, influence or wealth, what recourse do we have to push back against injustices when loved ones are incarcerated unjustly for years without due process?
00:09:34.000You are able to upload thousands of documents.
00:09:36.000So if you have someone who is wrongly incarcerated, all of the documents regarding your potential loved ones.
00:09:42.000We're not there yet, but we're getting there.
00:09:44.000All the documents, all the inconsistencies, all the depositions, everything.
00:09:48.000And within seconds, CoCounsel will make an incredibly compelling argument.
00:09:53.000That would otherwise cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars at big law to be able to advocate for your loved one to be released or wrongly incarcerated or whatever.
00:10:04.000The point being is we're not there yet, but within five to ten years, there will be a situation where almost every American will have access to a very high-quality legal representation, and that is an awesome promise.
00:10:19.000That it will no longer be just a luxury item for the billionaire elite, but every person can get access to defend their rights, their freedoms, and their constitutional God-given rights.
00:11:54.000You bundle all of that within an artificial intelligence program, it's going to bring down the cost of litigation by 99%.
00:12:02.000Now, there still will be a need for somebody to argue in front of a judge, someone to check the work of AI. But in the ideal and where we are headed...
00:12:11.000Is that if somebody is wrongly accused of a crime, for example, if a kid is wrongly accused of raping a girl when he's 19 years old and he has no money to be able to defend himself, potentially having co-counsel AI be able to shepherd him through the process means that our inalienable rights can be better protected.
00:12:33.000There's a lot of dangerous stuff with AI that I don't like.
00:12:36.000This is one of the most exciting applications that I see.
00:14:12.000So, first off, my main question is really, because I'm curious about this, how is the acquisition of Greenland going to be feasible, and would it be beneficial for America in the long run?
00:14:25.000Yeah, so absolutely beneficial from a geopolitical standpoint, from a strategic standpoint.
00:14:31.000It is a massive landmass with tons of natural resources, very hard to reach, and consolidates the entire hemisphere.
00:14:40.000In the long run, somebody is going to access it, either China, Russia, or the United States.
00:15:17.000Puerto Rico is its own kind of distinct status.
00:15:20.000But we have a lot of these kind of agreements all throughout the Pacific of American territories where you have full constitutional American rights, even regardless of them being a far-off distant land.
00:15:32.000And so Greenland definitely could fall under that category and fall into that kind of subset.
00:15:59.000Greenland, accessing Greenland and adding it to the United States of America would be a phenomenal benefit for our entire nation across the board.

00:16:32.000Don't waste your time on that nonsense instead.
00:16:33.000Use that time to learn something new and inspiring.
00:16:37.000Hillsdale College offers more than 40 free online courses.
00:16:40.000Learn about the works of C.S. Lewis, the meaning of the U.S. Constitution, the rise and fall of the Roman Republic, or the history of the ancient Christian church.
00:16:53.000In it, you'll explore the design and purpose of the Constitution, the challenge it faced during the Civil War, and how it has been undermined for more than a century by progressivism and liberalism.
00:17:03.000Our country needs more Americans who can understand the Constitution and can defend the freedom of the American people against the encroachments of an increasingly large and unaccountable government.
00:17:13.000Start the Constitution 101 course today.
00:17:15.000Right now, go to charlieforhillsdale.com to enroll.
00:17:17.000There's no cost, and it's easy to get started.
00:18:35.000And Burroughs went with the Democrats, got their vote.
00:18:40.000And got a bunch of rhino Republicans to vote with him, including my rep, Charlie Guerin, which sucks anyway.
00:18:48.000And so we now have a rhino as our leader of Speaker of the House, and I'm worried about him and any of the bills that Trump needs through and if Abbott will veto any of the bad ones.
00:19:12.000So Dan Patrick also commented, he said, this may be the first time in our nation's history where the minority party openly elected the speaker of a legislative body instead of the majority party.
00:19:37.000The idea that the minority party is able to elect a speaker, even if the Republican is not fully MAGA at heart, they know which way the party is going.
00:19:46.000And this is something for you in Texas.
00:19:48.000Every one of my Texas viewers and listeners, you guys have got to take back the party and change this process so the minority party cannot dictate what is happening in the great state of Texas.
00:20:19.000So, I was wondering, with all your experience going to colleges and debating students and things like that, what are some of your best tips for debate?
00:20:28.000So, I have three that I would like to share.
00:20:31.000The first of which is there is no replacement for knowing your stuff.
00:20:35.000Doing research, reading dozens, if not over 100 books a year, listening to audiobooks, listening to podcasts, reading, taking online courses at Hillsdale College, charlieforhillsdale.com.
00:20:48.000There is no replacement for knowing your stuff.
00:20:53.000Don't tell the audience what you think, but start to ask provocative questions that can get the other side to defend their position, but also can...
00:21:03.000Have them see things from your perspective.
00:21:06.000When it comes from immigration, for example, you could say, is there any limit to the amount of people that you would like to have come into the United States?
00:21:13.000Is there any cap that you'd like to have?
00:21:14.000That is far more effective than saying there should be a firm limit on XYZ people coming.
00:21:20.000Of course, we believe that, but it's very important.
00:21:23.000Finally, it's critical to make sure that...
00:21:28.000Your heart rate does not get higher than the person you are debating or that you are talking to.
00:21:34.000If you get more upset, if you get more fired up with the person that you are debating, you are more likely to get a little in a frenzy and not be able to win the debate.
00:22:31.000So if that's nothing for you, there's still going to be plenty of festivities and activities for people to enjoy in Washington, D.C. Okay, Mary, thank you for being a member.
00:23:09.000I was able to live around the country because of that and things like that.
00:23:13.000To me, being able to see all of these people getting saved and coming to Christ, do you feel like there's been a big switch in the age gap of people coming to Christ?
00:23:28.000I think younger and younger people are starting to come to Christ, which is the most important thing that we can do, is to bring people to Christ and to make Christ known.
00:23:36.000I know that young people are waking up big time, and I see this on college campuses.
00:23:40.000And by the way, we've been able to reach hundreds of millions of people with the message of God and Jesus, the scriptures, a redemption through TikTok.
00:23:49.000I mean, our top performing video on TikTok up until about a week before the election was me talking about the resurrection and me talking about Jesus.
00:24:29.000So, last year, I was kicked out of my social work program at my Catholic school for saying men should protect women, disagreeing with pronouns, and wearing a real Women's Day shirt.
00:24:46.000They said that I was not a good fit for social work, basically.
00:24:53.000And then I've reached out to a few legal organizations, and most turn me down because it's a private school.
00:25:01.000However, Pacific Justice Institute turned me down because it's a Catholic school, and they don't want to look bad by suing a supposed religious school, even though they support religious liberty.
00:25:16.000So my question is, how do we keep or make...
00:27:01.000The impact that Balance of Nature makes every single day is astounding.

00:28:13.000It's a new grassroots organization, and we're trying to do what you guys did across the nation.
00:28:19.000What Scott Pressler did in Pennsylvania, here in California.
00:28:22.000And, you know, we're hustling, we're talking at organizational meetings, we're doing all the things.
00:28:26.000But I know California is a different animal.
00:28:28.000So I was just wondering, with your expertise, what things do you recommend that we need to do different here, as opposed to different states in the Union?
00:28:36.000You got a lot of work to do in California.
00:28:38.000Look, the first and foremost thing I tell all of our amazing California patriots, understand you live in paradise.
00:29:18.000And also, I imagine you are a person of faith or at least akin to believing in God.
00:29:26.000And if not, I encourage you to do that.
00:29:27.000Making sure you have a strong church community and mobilizing it for greater good and for higher purposes is incredibly, incredibly important.
00:29:35.000Remember, when we were in the dark night of the soul, this is very important, when we were in the dark winter of 2021, February, March, and April, where did our movement focus?
00:30:28.000So, it's a little bit nosy, and I apologize, but I had heard you on Thought Climb, and they had mentioned that you and Erica possibly met at the very first Trump rally, and only with what you're comfortable sharing.
