Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec - THOUGHTCRIME - The Renewal of the American Dream Speech Special

00:00:00.000 Let me ask you something, folks. Did you know that the seven banks have failed in the last

00:00:04.520 two years? Your money now has 20% less purchasing power than it did just four

00:00:09.900 years ago when Joe Biden took office. Well, the Human Events audience knows to expect the

00:00:15.300 unexpected, especially when it comes to the economy. That's exactly why we've partnered

00:00:20.300 with today's episode sponsor, Allegiance Gold. Gold has been the one commodity that stood strong

00:00:25.680 for thousands of years. Through wars, recessions, and financial collapses, gold has stood the test

00:00:31.620 of time because gold doesn't depend on Wall Street, doesn't depend on politicians or the

00:00:36.120 value of paper money. It's real, it's tangible, and it holds its value when everything else falls

00:00:41.580 apart. I partnered with Allegiance Gold because they can show you how to diversify your savings

00:00:47.440 with gold and silver and protect you with what you've worked so hard for. Go to

00:00:52.160 protectwithposo.com and Allegiance will give you up to $5,000 in free physical gold or

00:00:57.940 silver to get started. Plus, no setup fees if you choose a gold-backed IRA. Time is right

00:01:03.760 now. Take control of your financial future. Go to protectwithposo.com right now. That's

00:01:08.360 protectwithposo.com.

00:01:10.100 From the age of big brother. If they want to get you, they'll get you. DNSA specifically

00:01:16.680 targets the communications of everyone. They're collecting your communications.

00:01:25.100 All right, everybody. Welcome to Thought Crime Tuesday. It's not a Thursday this time. I am

00:01:35.920 Andrew Colvett, producer Andrew. I am joined by Blake Neff and Tyler Boyer tonight. My earpiece

00:01:41.840 keeps falling out. Charlie will be joining us momentarily, as will Jack Posobiec. We're getting

00:01:46.560 the stream going, letting the juices flow here from Phoenix, Arizona, in preparation of President

00:01:52.960 Trump's address to a joint session of Congress. He's dubbing this evening as the renewal of the

00:01:59.540 American dream, which I think is apt. And since it's not a state of the union, it's actually

00:02:04.640 something sort of different. He was invited by Speaker Mike Johnson to do this. Normally

00:02:08.860 we would have a state of the union. Next year we'll have a state of the union. So renewal

00:02:13.760 of the American dream, that's the theme. It looks like we've got senators coming into the

00:02:17.840 main hall. Let's make sure we get that picture in picture there, guys, so people can sort of

00:02:22.440 follow along visually. J.D. Vance has been spotted. Tom Homan. Borders are. We're looking

00:02:29.320 at different images. I mean, there's a lot of people filtering into this room. President Trump's

00:02:34.280 supposed to start in about 15, 14 minutes. It's still a little ways out, but it takes

00:02:39.400 a little while to get all those people, wrangle all those cats. So what are we expecting to

00:02:43.340 hear tonight? Obviously, Blake Tyler, the tariff issue is prime tonight. We just levied

00:02:49.460 an additional 10% tariff against China. We did 25% against Mexico and Canada. Now we're hearing

00:02:56.540 that he might be willing to walk that back. There's a lot of negotiations going behind the

00:03:00.740 scenes. Set the stage here. Blake, Tyler, either of you can take this. What do you expect to hear

00:03:06.640 from the president?

00:03:07.380 Yeah, it's very interesting because usually with the state of the union, it's, you know,

00:03:11.400 the president sets his agenda for maybe the whole year or he's bragging about what he's

00:03:15.440 already done, which Trump can definitely do that. He came out with a bang. But you don't

00:03:19.260 usually associate these speeches with like breaking policy news where a lot's up in the air.

00:03:25.460 But a lot has been up in the air just the past five days. We had the blow up with Zelensky

00:03:30.680 where, you know, mineral deal was dead. Zelensky left. He was pausing military aid to Ukraine.

00:03:37.020 Now there's reports just a few hours ago that Zelensky is open to, you know, renegotiating the

00:03:42.320 peace process, opening that up. Then with tariffs, we have Trump come out and say, we're imposing

00:03:47.520 20% tariffs on Canada and Mexico. We're doing new tariffs on China. Canada comes out and is retaliating,

00:03:54.420 saying they're going to impose similarly large tariffs on the U.S. But then Trump, then Trump

00:03:59.160 says, yeah, like that we might have, I don't know if Trump announced it. Yeah, he's ready. He says

00:04:05.800 he's ready to escalate. He truth that he's ready to escalate again. But then I believe Secretary of

00:04:10.740 Commerce came out and said, I think it was kind of Nick. Yeah. Yeah. And he came out and said, well,

00:04:15.200 we might actually have a deal to pause it by tomorrow. Yeah. So we may literally have a case where

00:04:21.000 we could get breaking news on either of those topics tonight or even maybe the Gaza piece

00:04:27.080 process that's been going on in the background as well. Well, I'll add to the tariffs. He also

00:04:31.280 talked about the farm tariffs for the exports outside the country, which that's also freaking

00:04:37.860 out Mexico and so many others because they're so dependent on a lot of what we produce within the

00:04:44.740 country too. So yeah, there's a lot to talk about to your point. And it's really exciting. And I hope,

00:04:50.360 I was saying in the chat with the team, I hope he says stuff that his team doesn't even know he's

00:04:54.780 going to say. I hope Trump goes off script. He doesn't even know he's going to say it. He's going

00:04:59.040 to get in the moment. He's going to be like, you know, I'm just going to say it. And I hope he comes

00:05:02.400 out with it. And just like, because this is, I think this is the pacing that's making us successful

00:05:07.800 is Trump is staying so far ahead of the media that it's making. I totally agree. Your life a little

00:05:14.580 bit crazy. No, yeah, totally. But I mean, Charlie's like a little crazy, but your life a little crazy,

00:05:19.000 but it's, it's so good. Here's the way, here's the way this works though. All right. So normally

00:05:24.200 in politics, somebody comes out with one big, big thing, right? It's Obamacare. Yeah. And the next

00:05:30.780 six months politically is spent arguing about the merits or drawbacks of Obamacare and how is the

00:05:36.960 website working? And in that six months, you have all this time to come up with thought pieces and

00:05:41.820 there's position papers. And then the economists weigh in about the pros and cons and the pluses

00:05:46.560 and minuses. Trump is doing the equivalent of a political Obamacare unilaterally via the

00:05:53.320 executive branch, which he has the authority to do. Obviously people feel differently. They're

00:05:58.120 challenging that in the courts. He's doing this on a daily basis, just about. And so the thought

00:06:03.320 pieces and the think pieces and the think tanks and the economists, they can't keep up with the

00:06:07.560 outrage. I just want to note, we have, we have breaking imagery. I think they just had

00:06:11.800 it up on stage. Now they cut away, but Elon Musk put on a suit. Oh, wow. He's in, he's in the

00:06:18.680 chamber. I believe JD and Speaker Johnson are in position. I've seen JD already. Yeah. JD and

00:06:25.120 Speaker Johnson just for everybody. There's Don Jr. Don's in the back of the room. Yep. And I just

00:06:30.120 want a preview for him and hello. We're on YouTube as well, as well as Rumble. I just wanted to say

00:06:34.840 Charlie will be joining us. He's not with us yet. We'll be watching the speech when it begins

00:06:39.040 and we'll be reacting afterwards. He was busy showering after a long day. It's amongst

00:06:45.920 Democrats. I can't blame him. Yeah. For those of you who didn't see the tweet heard around

00:06:49.960 that thing's got like 3 million engagements already. Charlie was contaminated. Charlie and

00:06:54.400 I was in the room. Blake was in the room. We, we lived to live to tell a, tell the tale

00:06:58.960 here. Uh, but yeah, Charlie was on Gavin Newsom's podcast. And from what we can tell, there was

00:07:04.240 one warmup episode and then Charlie, and I don't think with, they didn't tell me who, but

00:07:08.840 it didn't sound like it was as, it was as a big of a person. And they basically said,

00:07:13.380 this is kind of, you know, he had to, he had to get one under his belt. And I think that's

00:07:16.940 important. Fair enough. I saw who it was. Who was it? I don't know. I don't even know if

00:07:20.260 they've announced it or not, but Charlie's like six five. He's a very big. Well, and

00:07:24.800 then, so Charlie's going to sort of like, you know, and by the way, I'd love to know

00:07:27.640 your thoughts out of the gate here in the comment section. Charlie Kirk does Gavin Newsom's

00:07:32.300 podcast. It was, I don't want to give it too much away. It's going to be exciting. It's

00:07:36.080 going to be exciting. It was, it will be one of the most enjoyable, entertaining, you

00:07:41.880 know, and even talk about this politics and culture and entertainment sort of overlap in

00:07:46.080 these ways, like it or not. This was politics meets entertainment. It's actually

00:07:49.980 just remarkable to think about. We got one of the most notable liberal governors versus

00:07:54.900 one of the most notable conservative of any kind. By the way, the biggest economy in the

00:08:00.500 country, the fifth largest economy in the world, if you took it by itself, to sit down

00:08:04.520 and to their credit, they invited Charlie and it was great. So anyways, I'd love to know

00:08:08.800 your thoughts in the chat. Do you think we're giving Gavin Newsom opportunity to pivot?

00:08:14.740 Because he's obviously going to be thinking about running for president a few years. Or do you

00:08:18.020 think this is exactly what we should be doing as Americans? I've seen both sides on social

00:08:22.320 media. I think it's a fascinating debate.

00:08:24.380 Here's what I'll say for people, our conservatives that are concerned. There's no reason to be

00:08:28.820 concerned. The last time that Charlie went on podcasts with a Democrat that was thinking

00:08:33.720 about running for president, he promptly quit the Democrat Party and endorsed President Trump.

00:08:41.300 So listen, you have to, you have to give it your all. Like if you're worried about Charlie

00:08:47.740 Kirk moving position wise, I just, you haven't known Charlie. Mike Lee was like, he didn't

00:08:53.220 turn you. Did you? Did he? Charlie replied back with a, with a smiley face, like a laughing

00:08:58.720 face. Um, you know, anyways, I, I just think, I think it's a, Oh, I heard Charlie.

00:09:04.420 No, I think Speaker Mike Johnson's announcing the president right now. I could be wrong.

00:09:08.500 I think I heard Charlie. So no, that was, that was, uh, that was Ryan. He's just letting

00:09:12.300 us know Speaker Johnson speaking. Do we want to go there? I think, I think Speaker Johnson

00:09:16.160 is just announcing the entry of the president. I could be wrong. All right, here goes JD.

00:09:19.460 Let's take the sound guys.

00:09:21.580 Appoints the following senators as members of the committee on the part of the Senate to

00:09:26.480 escort the president of the United States into the house chamber. The Senator from South

00:09:31.560 Dakota, Mr. Thune, the Senator from Wyoming, Mr. Barrasso, the Senator from Arkansas, Mr.

00:09:37.840 Cotton, the Senator from Oklahoma, Mr. Lankford, the Senator from West Virginia, Mrs. Capito,

00:09:44.940 the Senator from South Carolina, Mr. Scott, the Senator from New York, Mr. Schumer, the Senator

00:09:51.200 from Illinois, Mr. Durbin, the Senator from Minnesota, Ms. Klobuchar, the Senator from New

00:09:57.400 New Jersey, Mr. Booker, the Senator from Wisconsin, Ms. Baldwin. The members of the Escort Committee

00:10:05.040 will exit the chamber through the lobby doors.

00:10:21.680 Parliamentary procedure, so they have to send them out. So now they're out in the lobby.

00:10:26.300 They meet the president, they all shake his hand, and then they come in and remember, so

00:10:30.880 this is actually kind of a cool story. Speaker Johnson was nice enough, Andrew and I, the day

00:10:35.100 before inauguration, Andrew and I actually went down to the Capitol to see the Rotunda,

00:10:42.540 do everything.

00:10:43.140 It was great.

00:10:43.680 It was cool. We hung out with some of our really close friends that are influential in

00:10:49.860 the space, too. And while we were there, we met the Sergeant at Arms, who's the guy that's

00:10:56.760 going to come out and he's going to announce the president. That's his job. So I think they

00:11:00.260 do that for State of the Unions. I'm pretty sure he'll do the same thing for the joint,

00:11:04.940 because that's his job.

00:11:05.900 What does he do when he's not announcing the president?

00:11:08.440 He runs the security.

00:11:09.580 He runs the Capitol.

00:11:10.180 Yeah, he runs the keep it running a tight ship. So he showed us everywhere where there's bullet

00:11:15.180 holes in the chamber and everything else. But he's a bit of a maitre d' as well as the

00:11:20.060 head of security.

00:11:21.100 He was very cool, very kind. So you're going to see him. So he's kind of the famous, infamous

00:11:27.940 guy who will come out. And this room that they're in is very small.

00:11:32.960 Oh, yeah.

00:11:33.540 It's tiny.

00:11:34.040 It looks huge on TV. And when you actually get in there, it is really small.

00:11:38.940 Really small.

00:11:39.680 It's intimate. It's cozy.

00:11:41.120 The chairs, the sitting places are tiny. It's really... Right, Andrew? It's probably

00:11:47.140 just like...

00:11:47.660 It's deceptively... I mean, the TV just makes it look like this grand hall. Are we going

00:11:52.800 to have the president here?

00:11:54.340 No.

00:11:54.800 No, they're all standing and talking still. You can...

00:11:57.380 Oh, they're all standing up right now.

00:11:59.540 There's probably a couple of different groups that will come in first. Like, this is...

00:12:03.140 Yeah, I'm not sure who this is.

00:12:04.440 As long as people are waving and giving thumbs up, we're probably not at a full presidential

00:12:09.400 arrival. We have Nancy Mace blowing kisses to somebody, giving thumbs up.

00:12:13.240 Who is it?

00:12:17.380 Nancy Mace saying, call me. Okay.

00:12:19.180 So some of the interesting points that are going to happen here is, again, you have a

00:12:22.820 full room. So if you didn't see the news, the president has invited... It was about a

00:12:27.280 dozen what they call everyday Americans. So people that have a really normal...

00:12:34.080 Forgotten no more.

00:12:34.920 Honorable story that he's going to cover. So a big chunk of his speech, 12 people is

00:12:41.860 a lot of people. So covering each of their stories and what they went through, just as

00:12:46.840 your money whole point to them, they're probably going to be sitting near the family that's

00:12:50.620 up in the top. So where Trump is speaking stage right, so to his left, or stage left, I should

00:12:58.560 say, to his right on TV. So that's what you're going to see a lot of. So you're going to hear

00:13:05.420 these stories in between some of the policy things and how they support his policy positions

00:13:10.820 that he's going to be taking.

00:13:11.360 A lot of people in the comments are asking if Charlie is there live. No, Charlie will be

00:13:15.060 joining us on this stream after the speech is over. He's just... He's occupied right now.

00:13:20.540 He's had a long day. He's had a very long day. He's had a long day. He's decontaminating

00:13:24.060 from the Gavin Newsom. And the speech will be at nine, so it's just a matter of minutes.

00:13:27.740 In a science laboratory situation, you got to make sure you're completely free of all

00:13:33.620 that.

00:13:33.840 Yeah, no. Charlie will be joining. He's going to be watching and chiming in. I would love

00:13:39.100 to know your guys' thoughts, though. In the chat, do you think it was the right move for

00:13:42.020 Charlie to go on the podcast? Is it a wait and see with Gavin Newsom? Or do you think

00:13:47.860 it's totally the right thing to do? I happen to be of the opinion that it was the right

00:13:51.140 thing to do, but I also saw how it went. And Charlie...

00:13:53.800 Question from the chat. How long is the speech? Nobody knows. I think it's slated for about

00:13:58.940 60 minutes, but I could be wrong.

00:14:01.340 Nobody knows with Trump, because he might just pause, kind of work the room. He might

00:14:05.600 ad-lib, do his... What do they call it? The Trump tangents? The weave.

00:14:10.860 I think he goes... I think he should just go for four hours. Just don't stop. Just keep going.

00:14:15.020 I think that would be a mistake. In theory, if he just kept going, what would happen?

00:14:19.580 Yeah, just never stop. And then meanwhile, come right off, and then sign 10 more executive

00:14:26.780 awards.

00:14:26.880 It's like three years later, and he's still just like, and they were very unfair to me

00:14:30.860 with how they reported the size of the crowds at my inauguration.

00:14:34.380 This was a record inauguration. Chicken son, I guess, starts in three minutes. Yeah, well,

00:14:39.560 it starts in two minutes now, but it's President Trump. He might be a little bit late.

00:14:44.040 Let's hope he's right on time.

00:14:45.760 One other thing... Seems like they're running on time.

00:14:48.000 One other thing for the chat. So guys, when we get back and we come out of this

00:14:51.480 stream, when the President gets done speaking, think of some good questions

00:14:55.900 here. We're going to go to the chat and talk about, debate some of the items

00:15:00.000 here. So, you know, what you love, what you wish you heard more of, what you can't

00:15:06.040 wait to hear more about. We want to have some debate, some talk about that. I know

00:15:11.320 Charlie will be up for it, even though he's had a heck of a day here.

00:15:15.120 Yeah, it's Logan, log 23, which his name is Logan, says, Charlie will destroy Gavin

00:15:20.260 Newsom. As somebody who was there, Logan, I can assure you that it was a gentlemanly

00:15:26.720 chat. It was combative at times. Like, it went in and out of being combative, but I

00:15:32.940 definitely think Charlie got more than a fair share of his points in. I have to say,

00:15:38.900 I was very, very pleased with that win. He should have ghosted Newsom and not done

00:15:45.240 the thing. Gavin has a state to fix and run. Well, I mean, here's the thing. Gavin

00:15:49.640 is a, he's a lame duck governor at this point. He, his term is up in 2026. And

00:15:57.940 then thoughts are that he's going to pivot. So that was the argument against doing

00:16:01.580 it. Do you help him sort of present more moderate to the world? Here's the, at the

00:16:05.980 end of the day, I think, you know, he's got a challenge because California is kind

00:16:09.880 of broken. He doesn't have a whole lot to show for himself. So I think Charlie was

00:16:15.220 in a powerful spot.

00:16:16.720 Um, how are we doing on, on, uh, where are we at in the proceeding here? It looks like,

00:16:22.100 it looks like they're pretty ready for president Trump. It's full. They're just waiting for him

00:16:25.260 to show up and chatting away. Uh, all right. Uh, let's go ahead and, uh, let's get a little

00:16:31.600 sound here so we can listen in. Keep our mics open here. It's just white noise. Once they announced

00:16:40.660 the president, we can pretty much cut through. So as soon as they announced the president guys,

00:16:45.620 we'll, we'll probably cut out and we'll be back again. Uh, just as soon as we're, as we're done,

00:16:51.820 as the president wraps up and we'll go right into commentary with Charlie.

00:16:55.900 Yeah. It's, it's funny too, because, you know, we have a wall here with all of the

00:17:00.120 different like broadcasts and, uh, you know, it, it's, it's funny because they're all obviously

00:17:06.780 arguing about, uh, the tariffs and they're trying to make a high drama out of that. And it is high

00:17:12.100 drama in this in one sense, but, um, it's just, our perspective on the show is probably so much

00:17:19.260 different than what they have to like say on the, you know, on the news media or that I happen to

00:17:24.360 feel that Trump is playing very hard. He's willing to go hard, but as soon as somebody concedes to him

00:17:30.240 and does what he wants, it's going to be over. Um, I don't think we have to overly be concerned

00:17:34.580 about it. That's my personal take on tariffs. I, Blake, maybe you have a different take on it,

00:17:38.180 but I can sort of tell that that's all the, the intrigue, like what's Trump going to say about

00:17:43.000 this? And I mean, look, this is probably one of, you know, anytime you have a state of the union or

00:17:47.480 joint session or a joint address, you have a moment where you probably get hundreds of millions of

00:17:56.020 dollars worth of, of media outcome. He gets to strike all of the successes here worldwide. So,

00:18:01.980 so this is the moment to scare the living daylights out of every country. They're scared. This is,

00:18:07.800 I mean, they already are, but it's like, it's one thing to have like a press conference where you say

00:18:11.800 something and gets picked up and it's worth millions of dollars worth of earned media. This

00:18:15.640 is tens of millions of dollars, maybe a hundred plus million dollars worth. So he's, he's got pomp and

00:18:20.900 circumstance of the joint session. I mean, you gotta hit it hard. This is such a, a flex internationally.

00:18:27.000 I mean, as much as every, like our institutions have been sort of, I don't know, it's like the, we've,

00:18:33.160 we've seen the veil's been torn. We've seen behind the sausage making, like our institutions are not

00:18:37.920 what they want, what they once were. This still feels big and powerful. And especially, can you

00:18:43.520 imagine watching halfway around the world, seeing the joint session, seeing Trump, he's gonna, he's

00:18:49.000 talking about, we know from the, from the title of it, it's the return of the American dream. He's going to

00:18:54.060 strike a triumphant tone. He's going to go through all of the, his accomplishments, which

00:18:57.360 are myriad. There are so many to recount. We can't probably, I can't even remember all the

00:19:01.940 things he's done. Um, and so he's probably going to list it out and he's going to, he's

00:19:05.720 going to basically, I think he's going to say that, listen, the world's going to bow

00:19:09.940 to these things, whether it be tariffs or peace in, in Ukraine. We also got a signal today

00:19:15.660 from, from Vladimir Zelensky that he wants to work this out. He wants peace. Um, and we're

00:19:21.300 hearing that Canada wants, you know, free trade. Oh, we've got some clapping going on. So Trump

00:19:26.280 is, I think, I think he has a lot of momentum behind him, a lot of, a lot of reason to be

00:19:30.320 confident. I think this is where the family's entering. So if I'm not mistaken, I already saw

00:19:35.080 Ivanka. It looks like, it looks like right now, Milani is entering. So that means that she left the

00:19:39.200 president's side. So the president's going to be up next. As soon as she sits, you should expect

00:19:43.780 there's Milani. And she's got, she's got Lakin. I think. Well, yeah. Yep. And then we've got

00:19:49.600 Lakin Riley's mother, I believe. Okay. I am here guys. Oh, we have Charlie. Charlie's hopping on

00:19:54.300 Charlie. We're just about to have the president come out. Milani Trump just sat down. Charlie

00:19:57.940 Kirk. Great. Wonderful. Hey guys. Great to see you. Sorry. It's been quite an eventful day. I will

00:20:03.800 one day tell you the tale of what happened today. Uh, that is a private tale. Uh, I might come back

00:20:09.280 down to the studio, but we'll see. And, uh, I know we're going to enjoy an amazing, uh,

00:20:14.040 state. Well, it's like a state of the country, uh, American dream address.

00:20:19.040 The president's cabinet.

00:20:22.420 Welcome to the president's cabinet. Catch it afterwards.

00:20:27.520 Yeah.

00:20:29.520 Oh.

00:20:31.600 What a cabinet too. Charlie Kirk, you should take some pride in that, my friend.

00:20:35.840 The cabinet, a great group of people, wouldn't you say?

00:20:40.520 Yeah. I mean, and the, the, by the way, I think they accomplished and you got to give

00:20:44.400 credit to Thune as well, but I'm especially JD Vance, in my opinion, for working behind

00:20:48.720 the scenes, but the amount of approvals and appointees that have been confirmed.

00:20:52.720 I mean, um, is really, is really something. So it's truly a project 20, 29 cabinet.

00:20:59.120 That's what I tell. Wow. Oh gosh. Here we go. Did she just take project 20, 25 and raise

00:21:05.840 this 20, 29, just project 20, 29 cabinet. Oh, it's a lot of preparation. You got to think ahead.

00:21:15.440 Well, cool. So now we've got, so the first lady sitting, uh, getting seated right now,

00:21:20.240 Scott Bessent, Marco Rubio, really hitting me that we have a member of the, like the most famous

00:21:24.960 member of the Kennedy family is walking in, shaking hands as a member of a Republican president.

00:21:32.560 Oh my gosh. Uh, and there, yeah. RFK is shaking, uh, Lauren Boebert's taking a selfie with Lauren

00:21:38.560 Boebert. Yeah. The HUD secretary, uh, there is, that's HUD. That's, uh, there's Duffy.

00:21:46.880 It's a good bunch. It's a, I mean, honestly. Oh, there's Andy Biggs. There's our man,

00:21:55.600 Eli Crane and Andy Biggs. Andy Biggs right next to APL. APL. These are our guys. These

00:22:01.360 are the turning point crew right here. We've got, uh, we've got APL. Oh, look. Governor,

00:22:08.240 Senator Scott. Mike Lee has just shook Marco Rubio's hand and Eric Schmidt from Missouri. Oh,

00:22:13.760 and there's Joni Ernst. Joni Ernst, uh, voted for Hegseth. We can, uh, appreciate that.

00:22:21.200 She's really trying to come back. Oh, there's Hegseth. I didn't actually see. Hegseth's right

00:22:24.640 there, standing very close to Joni. With his American flag, uh, lapel. Eric Schmidt is tall.

00:22:30.640 Eric Schmidt is really tall. I did not know that he comes on our show all the time. And, uh, but you

00:22:34.800 know, you're on a, you're on a zoom. Charlie, any thoughts before we welcome the president in? Yes,

00:22:43.360 sir. I, I am processing. This is a momentous moment. I actually might come down and join you

00:22:47.920 guys. I just sorted out what I needed to sort out, but, uh, it's pretty amazing to see all of our

00:22:52.080 hard work combined to this crescendo and, uh, praise the Lord. Just enjoy it is my advice,

00:22:57.600 everybody at home. Don't overanalyze it. Just sit back and say, what a change. What a moment.

00:23:03.040 Praise the Lord. So let's enjoy everybody. And, uh, I'm probably gonna come down and see you guys in a

00:23:06.880 moment. Love it. Looking forward to it. And think about too, like just Charlie said, enjoy it.

00:23:12.160 Think about too, what could have been, think about the disaster we could be watching right now.

00:23:18.320 If everybody that's listening to our voices right now, didn't get out and work,

00:23:23.520 do the ballot chasing, uh, support, getting the word out, knowing what's going on. I mean,

00:23:30.480 people were really, uh, I think frightened after we lost rush and because they didn't know what was

00:23:37.040 going on. And there was a moment there that it felt like it. And to like the, the listening base

00:23:43.440 here, that's, that's that are avid, uh, Charlie Kirk show listeners, uh, have come right on. They,

00:23:49.920 they're part of this and they're part of this in even a deeper way. You know, love, we love rush.

00:23:55.040 He was incredible. He was so brilliant. And he kept everybody informed what was happening down

00:23:59.360 in the swamp. But you know, we, we also have all of the flex muscle that's happening in the

00:24:05.760 grassroots. And that's different that that's changed from, you know, the Obama era where

00:24:11.840 it was just like, we had rush and talk radio. And by the way, not only that, but all of these, uh,

00:24:18.160 voices online that, that helped amplify and spread the message. I mean, everybody deserves so much credit

00:24:24.080 for what our country has accomplished in just, you know, since November 5th and the election

00:24:30.880 that changed the, the future of, of this country and changed history, uh, a truly momentous moment.

00:24:37.200 And everything that's happened since, since January, uh, 20th and onward is really been tremendous.

00:24:43.840 And, uh, to Charlie's point, it's, there's so much to appreciate here. Take a second,

00:24:48.320 take, take a step back and appreciate all that's happened and everything that we have to be thankful

00:24:54.240 for. Uh, there's a lot of battles ahead. There's a lot of fights, but, uh, there's a lot to be grateful

00:24:58.560 for. I totally agree. And, uh, as somebody who felt like they hadn't really rested since January 6th,

00:25:04.880 2021, uh, I'm going to take a moment here and really absorb this and, uh, appreciate everything

00:25:10.560 that's been accomplished in the interim. Let's see. Do we have any comments from our viewers before

00:25:20.560 the president comes out? Uh, we've got dream team cabinet, uh, people like your take on rush Tyler.

00:25:30.720 And remember, it wasn't that long ago in a state of the union that we had,

00:25:33.920 that rush was being recognized for his, uh, his life achievements by the president. Again,

00:25:42.240 no other president ever did that. No one else gave rush that love. You've got a cabinet that's full of,

00:25:49.360 you know, as Charlie puts them as wingers, as strong conservatives, that support what we do.

00:25:55.440 Look at all the hot pink they've got in the, uh, Democrat half. It looks like they must be celebrating,

00:26:00.080 uh, they must be celebrating, uh, Fat Tuesday. Why do they always do that? I can't stand that

00:26:04.720 about the left. I'm going to be really honest. I find it very cringe. Uh, when they all wore white

00:26:09.360 that one year and we would do that if we were in the, you know, I think both sides do their stunts.

00:26:15.280 No, no, we don't. No, we don't. We just like not in unison, not like this, you know, this whole,

00:26:19.600 this whole thing where things like you lie, exactly. But like, that's like one off and it's not

00:26:24.880 like coordinated, but this whole, you know, this whole video where there's 22 senators saying

00:26:28.800 that's that, that S word is a lie or some, whatever the thing was, that was so freaking

00:26:35.200 uncomfortable for me to like watch unfold. And I just felt like they made them all look like such

00:26:40.480 fools. And this is basically like, you know, we're all going to wear the same color to protest.

00:26:45.040 What? Well, you know, it's a, it's a gimmick to get on CNN or MSNBC to explain their outfit choice

00:26:50.480 and what it meant. And I can't stand it. And I just find it completely the the theater of it,

00:26:56.560 the theatrical nature of it. I just find it really sort of disgusting. There's Scott Besson and

00:27:02.960 Tulsi, Mark Wayne Mullen, Russ Vogt, Sean Duffy. That was a little power click right there.

00:27:09.760 Yeah. Mark Wayne Mullen is giving Sean Duffy the bro hug. And there's Mike Waltz,

00:27:14.640 National Security Advisor there. I think they probably entered earlier.

00:27:17.040 Yeah. John Roberts, Kavanaugh, Amy. Are they all there? Or just the kind of sympathetic ones?

00:27:22.320 ACB. I see Kav. I see Roberts. I see ACB. Is that Kagan? I think Kagan's there. I think she's between

00:27:30.880 Roberts and I think is that Kavanaugh or Alito? That's Kavanaugh. I don't see Alito. I think that's

00:27:38.560 I think that's Kagan between them. That's Kagan. I don't see Kagan. I don't see KGB. I don't see KGB.

00:27:43.440 Who's on the end right there? Who just sat?

00:27:48.240 The one at the end is Roberts, isn't it? No. Oh, the other end? Yeah. Is that?

00:27:53.600 Is that? It's like the Supreme Court justice nobody talks about.

00:28:00.000 Is that Alito? No, it's not Alito. I'm getting bad at this. I'm getting bad at my Supreme Court jujitsu.

00:28:08.560 Uh, hold on. I got you. It is. I don't even know who that is. It's not Gorsuch. It's not Kavanaugh.

00:28:16.880 Yeah, it's not Gorsuch. Now I'm really confused. Uh-oh. Who was that? Was it like a federal judge?

00:28:20.720 Is there someone who's just, is it like an emeritus judge? Like, did they bring in Kennedy as an emeritus?

00:28:26.240 Oh, that's probably what it was. Can he come in? Yeah, it probably was that.

00:28:28.880 Is it something? Because I was going to say, it looked like, yeah, it looks like, yeah.

00:28:32.400 I think you're right. It's still alive. Yeah. Maybe it is. Now I've got to go venture down.

00:28:38.240 No, because I've got them all here. I don't see Ketanji.

00:28:41.040 Mm-hmm. She'll be there.

00:28:43.360 Oh, is it Breyer? Would it be Breyer? No, that's Kennedy. No, he retired.

00:28:47.200 That's totally Anthony Kennedy. Yeah.

00:28:49.840 Yeah, I thought it was Kennedy, but I didn't want to say that because I was like, not on the court anymore.

00:28:52.640 But yeah, that's totally him. I guess they can just come out of retirement to hang out at-

00:28:55.840 Yeah, emeritus. Well, he-

00:28:57.640 Other people are noticing it. Yeah, okay.

00:29:00.560 Okay. Four sitting members. Yes. Yep. All right. Four sitting members are there. Roberts, Kagan, Kavanaugh, ACB, and then Kennedy is also present.

00:29:09.360 I'm surprised Thomas and Alito aren't there, but-

00:29:12.160 They're not much-

00:29:12.800 I guess-

00:29:13.360 They're not much for the-

00:29:14.400 I guess Alito soured on it after Obama went and like crapped on him during one of his speeches. Remember that? I think it was over-

00:29:23.600 Was that Obamacare? No, it was over Citizens United, I think. Yeah, Citizens United, I think that's right. He just, uh, he convinced about it. Oh, here we go. All right, they're gabbling it in.

00:29:32.400 I mean, stick your seats.

00:29:34.400 Sit down. Stop your, uh, your jazz.

00:29:36.400 Mr. Speaker, the President of the United States!

00:29:38.400 Here he is. All right, we're down.

00:29:40.400 Here's to see all of you when the speech is over. Yep. Enjoy.

00:29:44.400 Thank you, Mr. Speaker, the President of the United States!

01:23:59.740 Thank you.

01:24:00.740 Thank you.

01:24:04.860 And thank you to John Thune and the Senate.

01:24:08.220 Great job.

01:24:09.220 To criminalize the publication of such images online is a terrible, terrible thing.

01:24:15.900 And once it passes the House, I look forward to signing that bill into law.

01:24:21.760 Thank you.

01:24:22.760 And I'm going to use that bill for myself, too, if you don't mind, because nobody gets

01:24:26.680 treated worse than I do online, nobody.

01:24:30.620 That's great.

01:24:31.620 Thank you very much to the Senate.

01:24:32.560 Thank you.

01:24:34.740 But if we truly care about protecting Americans' children, no step is more crucial than securing

01:24:41.260 America's borders.

01:24:43.280 Over the past four years, 21 million people poured into the United States.

01:24:47.560 Many of them were murderers, human traffickers, gang members and other criminals from the

01:24:53.360 streets of dangerous cities all throughout the world.

01:24:58.140 Because of Joe Biden's insane and very dangerous open border policies, they are now strongly

01:25:03.700 embedded in our country.

01:25:06.740 But we are getting them out and getting them out fast.

01:25:11.300 And I want to thank Tom Holman and Christy, I want to thank you, and Paul of Border Patrol.

01:25:29.360 I want to thank you.

01:25:30.520 What a job they've all done, everybody.

01:25:32.620 Border Patrol, ICE, law enforcement in general is incredible.

01:25:36.860 We have to take care of our law enforcement.

01:25:38.860 Last year, a brilliant 22-year-old nursing student named Lakin Riley, the best in her class,

01:25:59.300 admired by everybody, went out for a jog on the campus of the University of Georgia.

01:26:05.860 That morning, Lakin was viciously attacked, assaulted, beaten, brutalized and horrifically

01:26:12.080 murdered.

01:26:13.580 Lakin was stolen from us by a savage, illegal alien gang member who was arrested while trespassing

01:26:21.140 across Biden's open southern border and then set loose into the United States under the

01:26:27.700 heartless policies of that failed administration.

01:26:30.860 It was indeed a failed administration.

01:26:34.280 He had then been arrested and released in a Democrat-run sanctuary city, a disaster, before

01:26:42.020 ending the life of this beautiful young angel.

01:26:46.320 With us this evening are Lakin's beloved mother, Allison, and her sister, Lauren.

01:26:51.320 Thanks, John.

01:27:07.740 Last year, I told Lakin's grieving parents that we would ensure their daughter would

01:27:21.980 not have died in vain.

01:27:24.400 That's why the very first bill I signed into law, as your 47th president mandates the detention

01:27:32.680 of all dangerous criminal aliens who threaten public safety.

01:27:36.920 It's a very strong, powerful act.

01:27:53.020 It's called the Lakin-Riley Act.

01:27:56.300 So Allison and Lauren, America will never, ever forget our beautiful Lakin Hope Riley.

01:28:05.180 Thank you very much.

01:28:24.400 Since taking office, my administration has launched the most sweeping border and immigration

01:28:29.740 crackdown in American history.

01:28:33.120 And we quickly achieved the lowest numbers of illegal border crossers ever recorded.

01:28:39.400 Thank you.

01:28:54.740 The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation.

01:29:02.680 We must have legislation to secure the border.

01:29:05.960 But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.

01:29:09.680 Thank you.

01:29:34.680 Joe Biden didn't just open our borders, he flew illegal aliens over them to overwhelm our

01:29:41.020 schools, hospitals, and communities throughout the country.

01:29:44.780 Entire towns like Aurora, Colorado, and Springfield, Ohio buckled under the weight of the migrant occupation

01:29:52.260 and corruption like nobody's ever seen before.

01:29:56.020 Beautiful towns destroyed.

01:29:57.680 Now, just as I promised in my inaugural address, we are achieving the great liberation of America.

01:30:14.020 But there still is much work to be done.

01:30:20.360 Here tonight is a woman I have gotten to know, Alexis Nungary from Houston, wonderful woman.

01:30:28.800 Last June, Alexis' 12-year-old daughter, her precious Jocelyn, walked to a nearby convenience store.

01:30:36.940 She was kidnapped, tied up, assaulted for two hours under a bridge and horrifically murdered.

01:30:44.360 Arrested and charged with this heinous crime are two illegal alien monsters from Venezuela,

01:30:49.640 released into America by the last administration through their ridiculous open border.

01:30:56.300 The death of this beautiful 12-year-old girl and the agony of her mother and family touched

01:31:01.840 our entire nation greatly.

01:31:04.640 Alexis, I promised that we would always remember your daughter, your magnificent daughter.

01:31:10.940 And earlier tonight, I signed an order, keeping my word to you.

01:31:17.800 One thing I have learned about Jocelyn is that she loved animals so much, she loved nature.

01:31:23.560 Across Galveston Bay from where Jocelyn lived in Houston, you will find a magnificent national

01:31:30.100 wildlife refuge, a pristine, peaceful 34,000-acre sanctuary for all of God's creatures on the

01:31:40.680 edge of the Gulf of America.

01:31:44.100 Alexis, moments ago, I formally renamed that refuge in loving memory of your beautiful daughter,

01:31:52.640 Jocelyn.

01:31:53.640 So, Mr. Vice President, if you would, may I have the order?

01:31:58.440 Thank you.

01:31:59.980 Thank you very much.

01:32:01.980 Thank you very much.

01:32:29.980 All three savages charged with Jocelyn and Laken's murders were members of the Venezuelan prison

01:32:40.480 gang — the toughest gang, they say, in the world — known as Tren de Aragua.

01:32:46.800 Two weeks ago, I officially designated this gang, along with MS-13 and the bloodthirsty Mexican

01:32:52.500 drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

01:33:13.880 They are now officially in the same category as ISIS, and that's not good for them.

01:33:20.980 Countless thousands of these terrorists were welcomed into the U.S. by the Biden administration.

01:33:27.760 But now, every last one will be rounded up and forcibly removed from our country, or, if

01:33:33.760 they're too dangerous, put in jails, standing trial in this country, because we don't want

01:33:39.040 them to come back ever.

01:33:42.280 With us this evening is a warrior on the front lines of that battle, Border Patrol Agent Roberto

01:33:48.540 Ortiz.

01:33:49.540 Great guy.

01:33:50.040 Great guy.

01:34:16.160 In January, Roberto and another agent were patrolling by the Rio Grande, near an area

01:34:22.960 known as Cartel Island — doesn't sound too nice to me — when heavily armed gunmen

01:34:29.500 started shooting at them.

01:34:32.400 Roberto saw that his partner was totally exposed at great danger, and he leapt into action,

01:34:37.440 returning fire, and providing crucial seconds for his fellow agent to seek safety just — and

01:34:45.240 just barely.

01:34:47.120 I have some of the prints of that event, and it was not good.

01:34:52.980 Agent Ortiz, we salute you for your great courage and for your line of fire that you took, and

01:34:59.940 for the bravery that you showed.

01:35:02.320 We honor you, and we will always honor you.

01:35:05.040 Thank you, Roberto, very much.

01:35:09.840 Thank you, Roberto.

01:35:25.360 And I actually got to know him on my many calls to the border.

01:35:29.840 He's a great, great gentleman.

01:35:32.800 The territory to the immediate south of our border is now dominated entirely by criminal

01:35:38.000 cartels that murder, rape, torture, and exercise total control — they have total control over

01:35:45.180 a whole nation — posing a grave threat to our national security.

01:35:50.340 The cartels are waging war on America, and it's time for America to wage war on the cartels,

01:35:56.140 which we are doing.

01:35:59.140 Five nights ago, Mexican authorities, because of our tariff policies being imposed on them — think

01:36:17.340 of this — handed over to us 29 of the biggest cartel leaders in their country.

01:36:24.140 That has never happened before.

01:36:26.140 They want to make us happy.

01:36:28.140 First time ever.

01:36:30.140 But we need Mexico and Canada to do much more than they've done, and they have to stop

01:36:38.940 the fentanyl and drugs pouring into the USA.

01:36:42.940 They're going to stop it.

01:36:44.940 I have sent Congress a detailed funding request, laying out exactly how we will eliminate these

01:36:50.860 threats to protect our homeland and complete the largest deportation operation in American history,

01:36:57.420 larger even than current record holder, President Dwight D. Eisenhower, a moderate man,

01:37:03.500 but someone who believed very strongly in borders.

01:37:07.420 Americans expect Congress to send me this funding without delay so I can sign it into law.

01:37:13.340 And also, Mr. Speaker, John Thune, both of you, I hope you're going to be able to do that,

01:37:19.500 Mr. Speaker, thank you.

01:37:21.740 Mr. Leader, thank you.

01:37:23.180 Thank you very much.

01:37:24.140 And let's get it to me.

01:37:25.580 I'll sign it so fast, you won't even believe it.

01:37:28.140 And as we reclaim our sovereignty, we must also bring back law and order to our cities

01:37:49.100 and towns.

01:37:57.900 In recent years, our justice system has been turned upside down by radical left lunatics.

01:38:07.980 Many jurisdictions virtually seized enforcing the law against dangerous repeat offenders,

01:38:14.860 while weaponizing law enforcement against political opponents like me.

01:38:20.460 My administration has acted swiftly and decisively to restore fair, equal and impartial justice under

01:38:28.300 the constitutional rule of law, starting at the FBI and the DOJ.

01:38:34.860 Pam, good luck.

01:38:36.620 Cash, wherever you may be, good luck.

01:38:39.100 Good luck.

01:38:40.220 Good luck.

01:38:41.020 Pam Bondi.

01:38:44.300 Good luck.

01:38:45.100 So important.

01:38:46.460 He's going to do a great job.

01:38:48.380 Cash, thank you.

01:38:52.060 Thank you, Cash.

01:39:03.500 They've already started very strong.

01:39:05.340 They're going to do a fantastic job.

01:39:06.860 You're going to be very proud of them.

01:39:09.260 We're also, once again, giving our police officers the support, protection, and respect

01:39:14.460 they so dearly deserve.

01:39:17.020 They have to get it.

01:39:18.060 They have such a hard, dangerous job, but we're going to make it less dangerous.

01:39:22.780 The problem is the bad guys don't respect the law, but they're starting to respect it,

01:39:26.780 and they soon will respect it.

01:39:29.180 This also includes our great fire departments throughout the country.

01:39:32.860 Our firemen and women are unbelievable people, and I will never forget them.

01:39:38.220 And besides that, they voted for me in record numbers, so I have no choice.

01:39:41.820 One year ago this month, 31-year-old New York police officer Jonathan Diller,

01:39:58.220 unbelievably wonderful person and a great officer, was gunned down at a traffic stop on Long Island.

01:40:06.940 I went to his funeral.

01:40:09.660 The vicious criminal charged with his murder had 21 prior arrests, and they were rough arrests.

01:40:16.540 He was a real bad one.

01:40:18.460 The thug in the seat next to him had 14 prior arrests and went by the name of killer.

01:40:24.700 He was killer.

01:40:25.500 He killed other people, they say, a lot of them.

01:40:27.580 And I attended Officer Diller's service, and when I met his wife and one-year-old son, Ryan,

01:40:36.300 it was very inspirational, actually.

01:40:39.820 His widow's name is Stephanie, and she is here tonight.

01:40:42.540 Stephanie, thank you very much, Stephanie.

01:40:45.180 Thank you very much.

01:40:46.060 Stephanie, we're going to make sure that Ryan knows his dad was a true hero, New York's finest.

01:41:11.020 And we're going to get these cold-blooded killers and repeat offenders off our streets,

01:41:16.140 and we're going to do it fast.

01:41:17.980 Got to stop it.

01:41:19.420 They get out with 28 arrests.

01:41:21.740 They push people into subway trains.

01:41:24.620 They hit people over the head, back of the head with baseball bats.

01:41:29.020 We got to get them out of here.

01:41:31.100 I have already signed an executive order requiring a mandatory death penalty for anyone who murders a

01:41:36.860 police officer, and tonight I'm asking Congress to pass that policy into permanent law.

01:41:55.580 I'm also asking for a new crime bill getting tough on repeat offenders while enhancing protections for

01:42:03.420 America's police officers so they can do their jobs without fear of their lives being totally destroyed.

01:42:10.860 They don't want to be killed.

01:42:12.540 We're not going to let them be killed.

01:42:18.860 Joining us in the gallery tonight is a young man who truly loves our police.

01:42:24.300 His name is DJ Daniel.

01:42:26.060 He is 13 years old, and he has always dreamed of becoming a police officer.

01:42:33.420 He is 13.

01:42:36.540 He is 13 years old.

01:42:39.820 He can do it forkloreintegration

01:43:02.940 But in 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer.

01:43:15.700 The doctors gave him five months, at most, to live.

01:43:20.300 That was more than six years ago.

01:43:44.800 Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make his dream come true.

01:43:50.860 And DJ has been sworn in as an honorary law enforcement officer actually a number of times.

01:43:58.860 The police love him, the police departments love him.

01:44:02.260 And tonight, DJ, we're going to do you the biggest honor of them all.

01:44:06.860 I am asking our new Secret Service Director, Sean Curran, to officially make you an agent

01:44:13.960 of the United States Secret Service.

01:44:43.960 Thank you, DJ.

01:44:50.960 DJ's doctors believe his cancer likely came from a chemical he was exposed to when he was younger.

01:45:00.960 Since 1975, rates of child cancer have increased by more than 40 percent.

01:45:07.960 Reversing this trend is one of the top priorities for our new Presidential Commission to Make America Healthy Again,

01:45:13.960 chaired by our new Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

01:45:32.960 With the name Kennedy, you would have thought everybody over here would have been cheering.

01:45:59.960 How quickly they forget.

01:46:02.960 Our goal is to get toxins out of our environment, poisons out of our food supply, and keep our

01:46:09.960 children healthy and strong.

01:46:11.960 As an example, not long ago, and you can't even believe these numbers, one in 10,000 children

01:46:21.960 had autism, one in 10,000, and now it's one in 36.

01:46:27.960 There's something wrong.

01:46:28.960 One in 36.

01:46:29.960 Think of that.

01:46:30.960 So we're going to find out what it is, and there's nobody better than Bobby

01:46:34.960 and all of the people that are working with you.

01:46:36.960 You have the best to figure out what is going on.

01:46:40.960 Okay, Bobby?

01:46:41.960 Good luck.

01:46:42.960 It's a very important job.

01:46:43.960 Thank you.

01:46:44.960 Thank you.

01:46:58.960 My administration is also working to protect our children from toxic ideologies in our schools.

01:47:04.960 A few years ago, January, little John and her husband discovered that their daughter's

01:47:10.960 school had secretly socially transitioned their 13-year-old little girl.

01:47:16.960 Teachers and administrators conspired to deceive January and her husband while encouraging her

01:47:22.960 daughter to use a new name and pronouns — they, them pronoun, actually — all without telling

01:47:30.960 January, who is here tonight and is now a courageous advocate against this form of child abuse.

01:47:37.960 January.

01:47:38.960 Thank you.

01:47:39.960 Thank you.

01:47:40.960 Thank you.

01:47:41.960 Thank you very much.

01:47:42.960 Thank you.

01:47:57.960 Stories like this are why, shortly after taking office, I signed an executive order banning

01:48:02.960 public schools from indoctrinating our children with transgender ideology.

01:48:17.960 I also signed an order to cut off all taxpayer funding to any institution that engages in the

01:48:23.960 sexual mutilation of our youth.

01:48:34.960 And now I want Congress to pass a bill permanently banning and criminalizing sex changes on children

01:48:41.960 and forever ending the lie that any child is trapped in the wrong body.

01:48:46.960 This is a big lie.

01:48:47.960 And our message to every child in America is that you are perfect exactly the way God made

01:49:01.960 you.

01:49:02.960 Because we're getting wokeness out of our schools and out of our military, and it's

01:49:21.960 already out, and it's out of our society.

01:49:24.960 We don't want it.

01:49:25.960 Wokeness is trouble.

01:49:28.960 Wokeness is bad.

01:49:29.960 It's gone.

01:49:30.960 It's gone.

01:49:31.960 And we feel so much better for it, don't we?

01:49:34.960 Don't we feel better?

01:49:39.960 Our service members won't be activists and ideologues.

01:49:44.960 They will be fighters and warriors.

01:49:46.960 They will fight for our country.

01:49:48.960 And Pete, congratulations.

01:49:51.960 Secretary of Defense, congratulations.

01:50:04.960 And he's not big into the woke movement, I can tell you.

01:50:07.960 I know him well.

01:50:09.960 I am pleased to report that in January the U.S. Army had its single best recruiting month

01:50:14.960 in 15 years and that all armed services are having among the best recruiting results ever

01:50:21.960 in the history of our services.

01:50:23.960 What a difference.

01:50:28.960 And you know it was just a few months ago where the results were exactly the opposite.

01:50:39.960 We couldn't recruit anywhere.

01:50:41.960 We couldn't recruit.

01:50:42.960 Now we're having the best results just about that we've ever had.

01:50:47.960 What a tremendous turnaround.

01:50:49.960 It's really a beautiful thing to see.

01:50:52.960 People love our country again.

01:50:54.960 It's very simple.

01:50:55.960 They love our country and they love being in our military again.

01:50:58.960 So it's a great thing.

01:50:59.960 And thank you very much.

01:51:00.960 Great job.

01:51:01.960 Thank you.

01:51:02.960 We're joined tonight by a young man, Jason Hartley, who knows the weight of that call of duty.

01:51:17.960 Jason's father, grandfather and great grandfather all wore the uniform.

01:51:23.960 Jason tragically lost his dad, who was also a Los Angeles County sheriff's deputy when he was just a boy.

01:51:31.960 And now he wants to carry on the family legacy of service.

01:51:35.960 Jason is a senior in high school, a six letter varsity athlete, a really good athlete.

01:51:40.960 They say a brilliant student with a four point four six.

01:51:45.960 That's good.

01:51:46.960 GPA.

01:51:47.960 And his greatest dream is to attend the U.S. military academy at West Point.

01:51:53.960 And Jason, that's a very big deal getting and that's a hard one to get into.

01:52:22.960 But I'm pleased to inform you that your application has been accepted.

01:52:28.960 You will soon be joining the Corps of Canada.

01:52:52.960 Thank you.

01:52:53.960 Jason, you're going to be on the long gray line, Jason.

01:53:05.960 As commander in chief, my focus is on building the most powerful military of the future.

01:53:11.960 As a first step, I'm asking Congress to fund a state of the art Golden Dome missile defense shield to protect our homeland.

01:53:20.960 All made in the USA.

01:53:23.960 And Ronald Reagan wanted to do it long ago.

01:53:36.960 But the technology just wasn't there.

01:53:38.960 Not even close.

01:53:39.960 But now we have the technology.

01:53:40.960 It's incredible, actually.

01:53:42.960 And other places, they have it.

01:53:45.960 Israel has it.

01:53:46.960 Other places have it.

01:53:48.960 And the United States should have it, too.

01:53:51.960 Right, Tim?

01:53:52.960 Right?

01:53:53.960 They should have it, too.

01:53:54.960 So I want to thank you.

01:53:55.960 But it's very important.

01:53:56.960 This is a very dangerous world.

01:53:59.960 We should have it.

01:54:00.960 We want to be protected.

01:54:01.960 And we're going to protect our citizens like never before.

01:54:04.960 To boost our defense industrial base, we are also going to resurrect the American shipbuilding industry,

01:54:12.960 including commercial shipbuilding and military shipbuilding.

01:54:17.960 And for that purpose, I am announcing tonight that we will create a new office of shipbuilding in the White House

01:54:29.960 and offer special tax incentives to bring this industry home to America where it belongs.

01:54:35.960 We used to make so many ships.

01:54:37.960 We don't make them anymore very much.

01:54:39.960 But we're going to make them very fast, very soon.

01:54:42.960 It will have a huge impact.

01:54:44.960 To further enhance our national security, my administration will be reclaiming the Panama Canal.

01:54:51.960 And we've already started doing it.

01:54:59.960 Just today, a large American company announced they are buying both ports around the Panama Canal

01:55:09.960 and lots of other things having to do with the Panama Canal and a couple of other canals.

01:55:14.960 The Panama Canal was built by Americans for Americans, not for others.

01:55:21.960 But others could use it.

01:55:23.960 But it was built at tremendous cost of American blood and treasure.

01:55:27.960 38,000 workers died building the Panama Canal.

01:55:32.960 They died of malaria.

01:55:33.960 They died of snake bites and mosquitoes.

01:55:35.960 Not a nice place to work.

01:55:38.960 They paid them very highly to go there, knowing there was a 25 percent chance that they would die.

01:55:44.960 The most expensive project, also, that was ever built in our country's history,

01:55:50.960 if you bring it up to modern-day costs.

01:55:52.960 It was given away by the Carter administration for one dollar.

01:55:57.960 But that agreement has been violated very severely.

01:56:00.960 We didn't give it to China.

01:56:02.960 We gave it to Panama, and we're taking it back.

01:56:05.960 And we have Marco Rubio in charge.

01:56:21.960 Good luck, Marco.

01:56:22.960 Now, we know who to blame if anything goes wrong.

01:56:26.960 Marco's been amazing, and he's going to do a great job.

01:56:31.960 Think of it.

01:56:32.960 He got 100 votes.

01:56:33.960 You know, he was approved with actually 99, but the 100th was this gentleman.

01:56:41.960 And I feel very certain.

01:56:43.960 So let's assume he got 100 votes.

01:56:45.960 And I'm either very, very happy about that or I'm very concerned about it.

01:56:49.960 But he's already proven.

01:56:52.960 I mean, he's a great gentleman.

01:56:53.960 He's respected by everybody.

01:56:55.960 And we appreciate you voting for Marco.

01:56:57.960 He's going to do a fantastic job.

01:56:58.960 Thank you.

01:56:59.960 Thank you.

01:57:00.960 He's doing a great job.

01:57:03.960 Great job.

01:57:08.960 And I also have a message tonight for the incredible people of Greenland.

01:57:15.960 We strongly support your right to determine your own future.

01:57:22.960 And if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.

01:57:26.960 We need Greenland for national security and even international security.

01:57:31.960 And we're working with everybody involved to try and get it.

01:57:34.960 But we need it really for international world security.

01:57:38.960 And I think we're going to get it.

01:57:40.960 One way or the other, we're going to get it.

01:57:42.960 We will keep you safe.

01:57:46.960 We will make you rich and together.

01:57:49.960 We will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before.

01:57:53.960 It's a very small population, but very, very large piece of land and very, very important for military security.

01:58:02.960 America is once again standing strong against the forces of radical Islamic terrorism.

01:58:08.960 Three and a half years ago, ISIS terrorists killed 13 American service members and countless others in the Abbey Gate bombing during the disastrous and incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan.

01:58:22.960 Not that they were withdrawing.

01:58:24.960 It was the way they withdrew.

01:58:26.960 Perhaps the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country.

01:58:30.960 Tonight, I am pleased to announce that we have just apprehended the top terrorist responsible for that atrocity.

01:58:39.960 And he is right now on his way here to face the swift sword of American justice.

01:58:45.960 And I want to thank especially the government of Pakistan for helping arrest this monster.

01:59:13.960 This was a very momentous day for those 13 families who I actually got to know very well.

01:59:20.960 Most of them whose children were murdered and the many people that were so badly over 42 people so badly injured on that fateful day in Afghanistan.

01:59:32.960 And what a horrible day such incompetence was shown that when Putin saw what happened.

01:59:40.960 I guess he said, wow, maybe this is my chance.

01:59:43.960 That's how bad it was.

01:59:44.960 Should have never happened.

01:59:46.960 Grossly incompetent people.

01:59:48.960 I spoke to many of the parents and loved ones and they're all in our hearts tonight.

01:59:57.960 Just spoke to them on the phone.

01:59:58.960 We had a big call.

02:00:00.960 Every one of them called and everybody was on the line and they did nothing but cry with happiness.

02:00:07.960 They were very happy as happy as you can be under those circumstances.

02:00:12.960 Their child, brother, sister, son, daughter was killed for no reason whatsoever.

02:00:22.960 In the Middle East, we're bringing back our hostages from Gaza.

02:00:27.960 In my first term, we achieved one of the most groundbreaking peace agreements in generations, the Abraham Accords.

02:00:53.960 And now we're going to build on that foundation to create a more peaceful and prosperous future for the entire region.

02:01:00.960 A lot of things are happening in the Middle East.

02:01:02.960 People have been talking about that so much lately with everything going on with Ukraine and Russia.

02:01:08.960 A lot of things are happening in the Middle East.

02:01:10.960 It's a rough neighborhood, actually.

02:01:13.960 I'm also working tirelessly to end the savage conflict in Ukraine.

02:01:18.960 Millions of Ukrainians and Russians have been needlessly killed or wounded in this horrific and brutal conflict.

02:01:25.960 With no end in sight, the United States has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine's defense.

02:01:35.960 With no security, with no anything.

02:01:52.960 Do you want to keep it going for another five years?

02:01:55.960 Yeah, you would say, Pocahontas says yes.

02:02:10.960 Two thousand people are being killed every single week.

02:02:14.960 More than that.

02:02:16.960 They're Russian young people.

02:02:18.960 They're Ukrainian young people.

02:02:20.960 Americans.

02:02:21.960 But I want it to stop.

02:02:23.960 Meanwhile, Europe has sadly spent more money buying Russian oil and gas than they have spent on defending Ukraine.

02:02:31.960 By far.

02:02:32.960 Think of that.

02:02:33.960 They've spent more buying Russian oil and gas than they have defending.

02:02:38.960 And we've spent perhaps three hundred and fifty billion dollars, like taking candy from a baby.

02:02:45.960 That's what happened.

02:02:46.960 And they've spent a hundred billion dollars.

02:02:49.960 What a difference that is.

02:02:51.960 And we have an ocean separating us and they don't.

02:02:56.960 But we're getting along very well with them and lots of good things are happening.

02:03:01.960 Biden has authorized more money in this fight than Europe has spent by billions and billions of dollars.

02:03:10.960 It's hard to believe that they wouldn't have stopped it and said at some point, come on, let's equalize.

02:03:15.960 You've got to be equal to us.

02:03:16.960 But that didn't happen.

02:03:18.960 Earlier today, I received an important letter from President Zelensky of Ukraine.

02:03:23.960 The letter reads, Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible to bring lasting peace closer.

02:03:32.960 Nobody wants peace more than the Ukrainians, he said.

02:03:35.960 My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump's strong leadership to get a peace that lasts.

02:03:44.960 We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence.

02:03:51.960 Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, Ukraine is ready to sign it at any time that is convenient for you.

02:04:00.960 I appreciate that he sent this letter, just got it a little while ago.

02:04:05.960 Simultaneously, we've had serious discussions with Russia and have received strong signals that they are ready for peace.

02:04:13.960 Wouldn't that be beautiful?

02:04:14.960 Wouldn't that be beautiful?

02:04:16.960 It's time to stop this madness, it's time to halt the killing, it's time to end the senseless war.

02:04:43.960 If you want to end wars, you have to talk to both sides.

02:04:47.960 Nearly four years ago, amid rising tensions, a history teacher named Mark Fogel was detained in Russia and sentenced to 14 years in a penal colony.

02:04:59.960 Rough stuff.

02:05:00.960 The previous administration barely lifted a finger to help him.

02:05:05.960 They knew he was innocent, but they had no idea where to begin.

02:05:09.960 But last summer, I promised his 95-year-old mother, Malphine, that we would bring her boy safely back home.

02:05:18.960 After 22 days in office, I did just that.

02:05:22.960 And they are here tonight.

02:05:29.960 As long and as far as she's able to see some of those efforts in everyone here today, they are completely destroyed.

02:05:34.960 I don't know when you'd pass up, I thought what stood up either way.

02:05:37.960 They saw the opposite.

02:05:40.960 It's like that we had a good видел in September 23rd.

02:05:42.960 We haven't planned before, we were still.

02:05:43.960 It was great today in Х cachetus, so we did a good time.

02:05:46.960 Everything wasadder-n members, I said none.

02:05:48.960 Awesome.

02:05:49.960 That's where we came back from our Можно we could just hit someone here.

02:05:51.960 Never until Friday.

02:05:52.960 I thought I did a good look.

02:05:53.960 I thought you were in trouble unless I arrived at.

02:05:54.960 We tried to become a little bit of reservations now that hasn't happened.

02:05:56.960 To Mark and his great mom, we are delighted to have you safe and sound and with us.

02:06:14.040 As fate would have it, Mark Fogel was born in a small rural town in Butler, Pennsylvania.

02:06:22.120 Have you heard of it? Where his mother has lived for the past 78 years.

02:06:28.720 I just happened to go there last July 13th for a rally.

02:06:34.740 That was not pleasant.

02:06:37.700 And that is where I met his beautiful mom right before I walked onto that stage.

02:06:45.600 And I told her I would not forget what she said about her son.

02:06:50.000 And I never did, did I? Never forgot.

02:06:53.620 Less than 10 minutes later, at that same rally, gunfire rang out and a sick and deranged assassin

02:07:02.780 unloaded eight bullets from his sniper's perch into a crowd of many thousands of people.

02:07:09.500 My life was saved by a fraction of an inch.

02:07:12.960 But some were not so lucky.

02:07:16.580 Corey Comparator was a firefighter, a veteran, a Christian, a husband, a devoted father.

02:07:24.180 And above all, a protector.

02:07:27.400 When the sound of gunshots pierced, the air was a horrible sound.

02:07:32.640 Corey knew instantly what it was and what to do.

02:07:37.040 He threw himself on top of his wife and daughters and shielded them from the bullets with his

02:07:43.740 own body.

02:07:46.220 Corey was hit really hard.

02:07:49.620 You know the story from there.

02:07:51.040 He sacrificed his life to save theirs.

02:07:54.560 Two others, very fine people, were also seriously hit.

02:07:59.440 But thankfully, with the help of two great country doctors, we thought they were gone and they

02:08:05.980 were saved.

02:08:06.980 So those doctors had great talent.

02:08:10.100 We're joined by Corey's wife, Helen, who was his high school sweetheart, and their two beloved

02:08:17.400 daughters, Allison and Kaylee.

02:08:20.140 Thank you.

02:08:21.140 Thank you.

02:08:50.140 To Helen, Allison and Kaylee, Corey is looking down on his three beautiful ladies right now.

02:09:02.560 And he is cheering you on.

02:09:04.280 He loves you.

02:09:05.420 He is cheering you on.

02:09:07.920 Corey was taken from us much too soon, but his destiny was to leave us all with a shining

02:09:13.620 example of the selfless devotion of a true American patriot.

02:09:19.520 It was love like Corey's that built our country, and it's love like Corey's that is going to

02:09:23.960 make our country more majestic than ever before.

02:09:28.760 I believe that my life was saved that day in Butler for a very good reason.

02:09:34.820 I was saved by God to make America great again.

02:09:37.760 I believe that.

02:09:38.760 Thank you.

02:09:43.760 Thank you.

02:09:48.760 Thank you very much.

02:09:49.760 From the patriots of Lexington and Concord to the heroes of Gettysburg and Normandy, from

02:10:08.000 the warriors who crossed the Delaware to the trailblazers who climbed the Rockies, and from

02:10:13.860 the legends who soared at Kitty Hawk to the astronauts who touched the moon, Americans have

02:10:21.500 always been the people who defied all arts, transcended all dangers, made the most extraordinary

02:10:28.440 sacrifices, and did whatever it took to defend our children, our country, and our freedom.

02:10:35.000 And as we have seen in this chamber tonight, that same strength, faith, love, and spirit

02:10:41.380 is still alive and thriving in the hearts of the American people.

02:10:46.640 Despite the best efforts of those who would try to censor us, silence us, break us, destroy

02:10:51.860 us, Americans are today a proud, free, sovereign, and independent nation that will always be free,

02:11:01.820 and we will fight for it till death.

02:11:05.200 We will never let anything happen to our beloved country.

02:11:10.240 Because we are a country of doers, dreamers, fighters, and survivors.

02:11:14.560 Our ancestors crossed a vast ocean, strode into the unknown wilderness, and carved their fortunes

02:11:20.860 from the rock and soil of a perilous and very dangerous frontier.

02:11:27.660 They chased our destiny across a boundless continent.

02:11:32.120 They built the railroads, laid the highways, and graced the world with American marvels like

02:11:37.560 the Empire State Building, the mighty Hoover Dam, and the towering Golden Gate Bridge.

02:11:45.500 They lit the world with electricity, broke free of the force of gravity, fired up the

02:11:51.600 engines of American industry, vanquished the communists, fascists, and Marxists all over

02:11:59.140 the world, and gave us countless modern wonders sculptured out of iron glass and steel.

02:12:06.260 We stand on the shoulders of these pioneers who won and built the modern age.

02:12:11.940 These workers who poured their sweat into the skylines of our cities.

02:12:16.720 These warriors who shed their blood on fields of battle and gave everything they had for

02:12:22.560 our rights and for our freedom.

02:12:25.760 Now it is our time to take up the righteous cause of American liberty.

02:12:29.820 And it is our turn to take America's destiny into our own hands and begin the most thrilling

02:12:37.140 days in the history of our country.

02:12:40.680 This will be our greatest era.

02:12:43.340 With God's help over the next four years, we are going to lead this nation even higher.

02:12:49.580 And we are going to forge the freest, most advanced, most dynamic, and most dominant civilization

02:12:57.620 ever to exist on the face of this earth.

02:13:01.200 We are going to create the highest quality of life, build the safest and wealthiest and

02:13:06.980 healthiest and most vital communities anywhere in the world.

02:13:12.380 We are going to conquer the vast frontiers of science, and we are going to lead humanity

02:13:18.360 into space and plant the American flag on the planet Mars and even far beyond.

02:13:24.380 And through it all, we are going to rediscover the unstoppable power of the American spirit.

02:13:50.700 And we are going to renew unlimited promise of the American dream.

02:13:55.580 Every single day, we will stand up and we will fight, fight, fight for the country our citizens

02:14:01.180 believe in and for the country our people deserve.

02:14:20.700 Box-tv, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical,

02:14:27.260 tried, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, lical, parp.

02:14:29.020 My fellow Americans, get ready for an incredible future because the golden age of

02:14:35.060 America has only just begun.

02:14:38.440 It will be like nothing that has ever been seen before.

02:14:43.380 Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.

02:14:47.180 Thank you, everybody.

02:15:17.180 Thank you very much.

02:15:21.400 Thank you very much.

02:15:26.740 Thank you very much.

02:15:32.740 Okay.

02:15:42.440 Hello, everybody.

02:15:43.580 That was quite the speech.

02:15:44.860 I hustled back down to the studio after a rather eventful evening.

02:15:48.240 We are going to have all the exclusive analysis here on our respective channels.

02:15:53.880 And it was quite a barn-burning speech in many different ways, President Trump listing off

02:15:59.200 his accomplishments, his vision, his agenda for the country, and of course, all of the

02:16:06.200 impediments that the Democrats are going to throw up.

02:16:08.600 Now, we see this a lot, where Democrats refuse to stand, Democrats refuse to applaud, but

02:16:15.120 it's worse than ever.

02:16:16.680 And literally, there was one moment where Donald Trump called out a young man with brain cancer

02:16:21.160 becoming an Asian of the Secret Service, and Democrats still did not stand up and applaud.

02:16:25.660 If you will not stand up and applaud for a young boy who becomes a member of the Secret Service

02:16:30.760 in an honorary way, there's something really sick and messed up about you.

02:16:35.480 Okay, we have Blake.

02:16:36.400 Blake, how are we doing?

02:16:37.140 Howdy.

02:16:37.980 We're doing great.

02:16:38.160 And I think we also have Jack Remote as well.

02:16:40.900 Producer Andrew is coming in here.

02:16:43.020 Now, these speeches, they tend to not matter a lot.

02:16:47.520 However, I will say, I think we first need to appreciate the macro, how awesome it is to

02:16:53.780 kind of see our year of work crescendo in this.

02:16:58.540 I mean, it's like all of our friends are involved, from Kash Patel to Bobby Kennedy.

02:17:04.480 Come on in, Tyler.

02:17:05.580 And the whole team.

02:17:07.400 Pretty remarkable stuff.

02:17:08.400 Pete Hegseth.

02:17:09.260 It was like a handbound.

02:17:10.520 Every, you know, they were wondering would any of those guys get through, and they basically

02:17:15.400 all got through, and I think you deserve a huge amount of credit for that.

02:17:18.540 Charlie, you deserve a huge amount of credit for that.

02:17:20.600 The team deserves credit, but yeah.

02:17:22.500 For one or two of those, I will receive some praise.

02:17:25.460 Listen, there was some Pete Hegseth in particular.

02:17:28.700 That was the red line.

02:17:29.680 You drew the battle line, and, you know, you deserve a ton of credit for that.

02:17:34.400 It was like America Fest there on the floor.

02:17:36.780 No, that's exactly right.

02:17:37.740 It's like our speaker list for that.

02:17:40.340 Okay, Jack is with us.

02:17:42.260 Remote Jack, can you hear me?

02:17:44.380 Jack, your thoughts?

02:17:45.860 Five by five, man.

02:17:46.900 Yeah, instant analysis, Jack, as Ms. Daisy is doing all of the aesthetic adjustments here.

02:17:54.900 Jack, your reaction to this historic address tonight from President Trump?

02:17:59.020 Yeah, so first of all, Charlie, I think you hit the nail on the head in terms of the macro.

02:18:04.680 Not only is this a cap on a remarkable year in 2024, but also it's a cap on a remarkable four-year period, an interregnum.

02:18:15.820 Remember the last time President Trump was giving a speech in this same chamber?

02:18:19.440 Nancy Pelosi was tearing it apart and throwing it on the floor, and now Nancy Pelosi is sitting up in the cheap seats crying.

02:18:27.980 This is a man who the entire world had written off.

02:18:32.700 This is a man who the entire D.C. power structure, the power structure that you say there assembled, one of the only times all year that you'll see this.

02:18:41.680 By the way, the three branches represented in one room there in the Capitol, they said this man was done, that Trumpism was a fluke, that MAGA was done, that it would never return.

02:18:51.700 And yet, in really not that long at all, it's right back, but back in full dominating command.

02:19:00.400 And this was a command performance from President Trump.

02:19:04.380 Even the Democrats were stuck simply reacting to him.

02:19:08.040 And I think one of the key things that a lot of people are leaving out, and I know folks will, and it's already trending, of course, all over Twitter, that people are talking about how they're all, it's the stunts.

02:19:19.560 The Democrats are performing stunt after stunt, and trying to be disruptive, and holding up placards, and all of this.

02:19:25.520 But what it really comes down to it is, Charlie, the Democrats have no message.

02:19:29.520 That's why they're resorting to stunts.

02:19:31.180 That's why they're trying to delay.

02:19:32.340 They have no message.

02:19:33.080 The things that President Trump are doing are popular.

02:19:36.560 Their own polls indicate this.

02:19:39.140 The American people widely support what he is doing.

02:19:43.800 This election wouldn't have come down the way that it did, winning the popular vote, going 7 for 7 in the swing states,

02:19:49.040 if they didn't actually want the things that he is currently doing.

02:19:53.160 And that's why the Democrats are sitting there flailing about, because they are in absolute panic mode.

02:20:00.500 They're demoralized.

02:20:01.820 They're completely demoralized.

02:20:03.240 And all they can do is basically sit there and jeer, because they have no actual response to the work of the American people

02:20:10.800 that's being done by President Trump, J.D. Vance, and yes, even Speaker Johnson.

02:20:15.360 So I want to just make sure this is framed correctly for everybody, that this was not a technical State of the Union address.

02:20:23.160 This was the kind of setup of the administration.

02:20:26.740 And, I mean, first the news-gathering item of Al Green trying to interrupt and interject.

02:20:32.140 But the Democrats just looked like angry hall monitors.

02:20:35.860 Petulant.

02:20:36.420 Petulant.

02:20:37.260 Sore losers.

02:20:37.900 Small, sore losers, not applauding kids with brain cancer.

02:20:42.580 I mean, and the Republicans looked lively.

02:20:45.540 They looked forward, we looked forward thinking.

02:20:48.520 Andrew, have we ever seen, I mean, we've been working together almost 7 or 8 years.

02:20:52.420 I've been doing this for 13 years.

02:20:53.940 Have we ever seen, let's just say since Obama, the Democrat Party this week?

02:20:59.300 Oh, no.

02:20:59.800 This disunified, demoralized, just they are a bitter shell for themselves.

02:21:06.140 Almost as if they're a permanent minoritarian faction.

02:21:10.880 Oh.

02:21:11.120 That was one of my biggest takeaways.

02:21:13.440 Just how nasty and how small they've been.

02:21:15.620 Well, they've found themselves, because of their TDS, and I know it's cliche at this point, but it's really true,

02:21:21.820 on the losing side of just about every 70-30 issue, sometimes 80-20 issue, and they've dug their heels in,

02:21:28.060 they're doubling down on stupid, and they just keep going for it.

02:21:30.960 I mean, you know, proof, you know, positive is the fact that you were just invited on the Gavin Newsom podcast

02:21:37.780 to explain why they're losing so bad, and why you're drawing crowds of 3,000, 4,000, 5,000 students on these blue campuses.

02:21:45.540 Because they have zero energy, they have zero activist energy, specifically.

02:21:49.540 There's nothing bottom-up in the Democrat movement right now.

02:21:52.960 It's just, the sparks aren't there.

02:21:54.200 They're trying to get people rallied at these, you know, pro-Ukraine things.

02:21:58.740 It's not working.

02:21:59.400 They're trying to get people rallied against Doge.

02:22:01.300 It's not working.

02:22:02.200 It's not sticking.

02:22:02.960 They're trying to do these really cringe videos of all the senators, you know, doing the same video over and over and over again,

02:22:09.440 and it gets mocked mercilessly online.

02:22:12.760 Everything that they are throwing at this president, he is literally Teflon Don.

02:22:16.680 It's not just lawfare anymore.

02:22:18.340 It's not just, you know, trying to bankrupt his businesses.

02:22:21.440 It's not just trying to get him impeached.

02:22:23.200 Everything that they are throwing at him is not sticking.

02:22:25.220 And here is the real rub, if you're a Democrat tonight.

02:22:28.680 He read the Zelensky letter.

02:22:31.280 The Zelensky letter that says, I'm ready to sign the middle of the rights deal at your convenience, Mr. President.

02:22:36.340 Thank you for your leadership.

02:22:37.760 Let's get peace in Ukraine.

02:22:39.220 Let's get to some of the tape here, just to kind of, you know, if people are just tuning in, they had stuff to do,

02:22:44.000 they were at practice or whatever.

02:22:45.100 Or let's just kind of go through some of the tape here that I want to go around the horn.

02:22:47.880 Let's start with cut 118.

02:22:48.980 And to my fellow citizens, America is back.

02:23:04.080 Followed by one of the more viral moments where President Trump went through just some of the waste of doge.

02:23:10.520 Play cut 119.

02:23:11.480 $40 million to improve the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants.

02:23:19.380 Nobody knows what that is.

02:23:23.000 $8 million to promote LGBTQI plus.

02:23:27.720 Plus.

02:23:29.260 In the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of.

02:23:33.280 $60 million for indigenous peoples and Afro-Colombian empowerment in Central America.

02:23:42.800 $60 million.

02:23:45.240 Sir, we have the ambassador and president from Lesotho on the line.

02:23:50.580 Who the hell is from Lesotho?

02:23:52.600 Blake, what is the capital of Lesotho?

02:23:54.580 Oh, what's the capital of Lesotho?

02:23:56.180 Is it?

02:23:56.460 Oh, crap.

02:23:57.560 Is it?

02:23:57.960 It might be Mbabane.

02:23:59.440 I have to go check that out.

02:24:00.460 Study harder, Blake.

02:24:01.120 Mbabane.

02:24:01.720 It is the country that is completely surrounded by South Africa.

02:24:05.200 Yeah, it's the one totally surrounded by South Africa.

02:24:07.240 Let me check what the...

02:24:08.260 I'm going to look it up.

02:24:09.000 I think you're right.

02:24:09.720 I just looked it up.

02:24:11.180 And it's...

02:24:11.720 I think it's Masaru.

02:24:12.940 Oh, it's Masaru.

02:24:13.760 Masaru.

02:24:14.380 There's a lot of ones that start with M that are like all Samish in Africa.

02:24:17.700 But I love President Trump running through the LGBT.

02:24:21.440 He's like LGBTQI plus.

02:24:25.440 In my defense, Mbabane is the capital of East Watani, which is the other country surrounded by

02:24:30.320 Blake.

02:24:30.840 You're not allowed to be wrong.

02:24:31.740 This is an image of the Lesotho.

02:24:34.200 I always thought it was called Lesotho.

02:24:36.200 I can say it however they want.

02:24:37.720 I wrote up the pronunciation.

02:24:38.560 It's Lesotho.

02:24:39.440 Here's the image.

02:24:39.600 Here's the beautiful Masaru.

02:24:41.660 Masaru.

02:24:42.540 Masaru?

02:24:43.240 I don't know.

02:24:43.560 Masaru?

02:24:44.200 Masaru.

02:24:44.860 There it is.

02:24:45.960 Nobody's ever heard of it.

02:24:47.460 I've heard of it.

02:24:48.100 Once again, accurate.

02:24:49.160 President Trump continued by...

02:24:51.080 I just want to run through this just to kind of reestablish the vibe.

02:24:54.120 President Donald Trump continued by talking about how he declared an emergency on the southern

02:24:59.480 border, something that the Democrats do not like and they don't support.

02:25:04.700 Play cut 120.

02:25:06.400 Within hours of taking the oath of office, I declared a national emergency on our southern

02:25:12.220 border.

02:25:12.580 And I deployed the U.S. military and border patrol to repel the invasion of our country.

02:25:20.440 And what a job they've done.

02:25:22.440 As a result, illegal border crossings last month were by far the lowest ever recorded.

02:25:30.600 Ever.

02:25:30.840 Thank you.

02:25:31.980 Thank you.

02:25:32.000 Thank you.

02:25:32.020 Thank you.

02:25:32.580 Thank you.

02:25:32.960 Thank you.

02:25:34.020 Thank you.

02:25:35.020 Thank you.

02:25:35.960 Thank you.

02:25:38.020 Thank you.

02:25:39.960 Thank you.

02:25:40.020 Thank you.

02:25:42.020 Thank you.

02:25:42.580 They heard my words and they chose not to come.

02:25:49.200 Much easier that way.

02:25:51.000 In comparison, under Joe Biden, the worst president in American history, there were hundreds of

02:25:58.820 thousands of illegal crossings a month.

02:26:02.180 And virtually all of them, including murderers, drug dealers, gang members and people from mental

02:26:07.960 institutions and insane asylums were released into our country.

02:26:15.300 Blake, so we can go into more detail here.

02:26:17.840 But just more broadly, you know, we're talking about Doge.

02:26:20.320 America is back.

02:26:21.100 What do you think of the vibe, the tone that President Trump struck here?

02:26:23.760 It feels as if he's resolutely on offense and not letting up.

02:26:26.980 Yeah.

02:26:27.160 It's it really is.

02:26:28.600 Considering he's been in office a month and a half, then it almost sounded like a State

02:26:33.200 of the Union.

02:26:33.640 He'd give a year in totally able to say, like, bam, we're on aggression on the border.

02:26:38.700 We're doing all of this in foreign policy.

02:26:41.020 You know, we're going to be wrapping up the Ukraine war.

02:26:42.840 We're going to be trying to get Greenland.

02:26:45.300 He even kind of lays out the approach on Greenland, where he's saying we support Greenlandic

02:26:50.720 self-determination, because that's how it would happen.

02:26:53.140 We're unlikely to just invade it.

02:26:54.900 What it would be is we would want the people of Greenland to agitate for independence and

02:27:00.000 then say, you know, we'll accept you if you were to obtain independence.

02:27:03.160 He lays it out that way, obviously on the border, on Doge, on combating the cartels.

02:27:09.080 It really does.

02:27:10.180 It sounds like an administration that's a lot older than six weeks.

02:27:14.440 And I just I want to marvel again.

02:27:15.720 I know we said this at the beginning.

02:27:16.700 Hello, everybody.

02:27:17.180 That's just tuning in right now.

02:27:18.280 And if you guys want to check out this gear, the Doge gear, by the way, or the 47 hat,

02:27:23.060 it's Charlie Kirk store dot com.

02:27:24.720 That's Charlie Kirk store dot com.

02:27:32.720 dot com.

02:27:33.780 The the other element that I just I just the visual of seeing Trump's cabinet was just

02:27:38.760 remarkable.

02:27:39.260 Oh, look, they have at least slot can for the response.

02:27:41.860 We definitely will not air that.

02:27:44.700 That is a cursed and a wretched.

02:27:47.980 Let's just say duty.

02:27:50.840 Yeah, that's that's that.

02:27:51.760 Yeah.

02:27:51.920 Task.

02:27:52.460 Yeah.

02:27:52.860 I was going to task that one has Tyler just kind of from the Internet vibe here.

02:27:58.460 Most of America doesn't watch the speech.

02:28:00.300 Everyone kind of goes to their teams.

02:28:01.880 But was there anything the Democrats did to win over leaners independence?

02:28:06.600 In fact, I think President Trump did a lot to probably bring anybody that might have been

02:28:11.320 like, oh, I'm not sure about this Doge thing further into our camp.

02:28:14.460 I thought he delivered it very effective.

02:28:16.320 I thought that the way he went about it was a master class.

02:28:19.300 And I'm not just saying that because he's a friend and we support him.

02:28:21.820 I thought he a lot of center right people in my life were texting me very favorably throughout

02:28:26.900 the speech.

02:28:27.360 Tyler.

02:28:27.560 Yeah, no, I totally agree.

02:28:28.900 I think this was the best speech he's ever given by a lot.

02:28:32.340 And we've been very critical and watched every single one.

02:28:34.340 I thought he was excellent.

02:28:35.120 He was excellent.

02:28:35.940 How they handled the people who are out of line.

02:28:38.820 He was great.

02:28:39.380 He was magnanimous.

02:28:40.300 And Speaker Johnson did it perfectly.

02:28:42.600 That was one of the most surprising moments.

02:28:44.720 Do we have a tape from that?

02:28:45.740 The forcefulness with which he said, you know, and you could actually there was a moment,

02:28:49.720 by the way, I hope we can we get this in the clip where the anger flashed on Speaker

02:28:53.720 Johnson's face.

02:28:54.600 It was actually something like you could see it.

02:28:57.160 He he righteous indignation.

02:28:59.040 He kind of like like glared at Al Green.

02:29:02.880 You could tell.

02:29:03.460 And then he kind of composed himself.

02:29:05.000 Stop it.

02:29:05.860 Yeah, I'm a little surprised because I'm a little surprised once that started happening

02:29:11.320 that Democrats didn't, you know, plunge in on it and say, OK, fine.

02:29:15.160 Escort all of us out because they got it.

02:29:17.060 If they'd done that, they got a half hour to walk every single one.

02:29:19.800 They got the vibe that it was not going well for them.

02:29:23.860 They could see it.

02:29:24.640 You could see it through the screen.

02:29:25.960 And Mike Johnson, he's a little guy and he's nice and he's like your next door neighbor.

02:29:31.560 He's the guy that you see.

02:29:32.540 Let's analyze it.

02:29:33.300 That's right.

02:29:34.020 Mike Johnson is the guy that shows up early at church and he helps you park cars.

02:29:38.420 Exactly.

02:29:38.940 Welcome to our conference.

02:29:40.600 Exactly.

02:29:41.120 Yes.

02:29:46.940 Finding that members continue to engage in willful and concerted description of proper decorum.

02:29:51.940 The chair now directs the sergeant at arms.

02:29:53.560 Mike Johnson unleashed.

02:29:57.540 Remove this gentleman from the chamber.

02:29:59.740 I love this.

02:30:01.380 Look at Ted Lieu.

02:30:03.180 Remove this gentleman from the chamber.

02:30:05.200 TD with the thumb.

02:30:06.100 Yeah, by the way, that meme's going huge.

02:30:10.040 JD with the thumb is just like, by his name, surprising memetic capacity.

02:30:14.560 Rumble has a like, Rumble Plus.

02:30:16.480 Because JD understands memes.

02:30:18.260 Emoji that people are using.

02:30:19.620 Yes, Jack.

02:30:19.860 They're like the.

02:30:21.100 Yeah, Jack, break down the meme ability of JD Vance.

02:30:25.320 Mimetic warfare.

02:30:26.380 Right, so JD understands memetic warfare.

02:30:29.220 He's, uh, he's already been the hottest meme of the last 24 hours.

02:30:34.340 Members are directed.

02:30:35.280 In JD Vance edits are currently the hottest meme.

02:30:39.360 If you are, uh, buying, if you're in the meme economy right now, you want to invest heavily in JD Vance edits right now.

02:30:47.420 They are going to the moon.

02:30:48.720 Are you long on JD Vance?

02:30:50.980 They are currently roaming.

02:30:52.400 I got, let me cut you off, Jack.

02:30:53.720 And it's just incredible.

02:30:54.700 Let me, let me just cut you off.

02:30:56.180 We're about to get Rav.

02:30:57.580 Uh, and I just want to make sure we welcome Rav.

02:30:59.980 I think in three.

02:31:02.000 Two.

02:31:02.500 The studio can tell me.

02:31:06.600 Five.

02:31:07.680 Four.

02:31:09.060 Three.

02:31:10.180 I want to make sure we time this up.

02:31:14.680 Hello, San Diego and other towns watching as well.

02:31:17.600 Uh, this is a Tuesday edition of Thought Crime, and we are honored to be on Real America's Voice and streaming on other channels.

02:31:23.560 We have Tyler, we have Blake, we have Andrew, and of course, Real America's Voice own Jack Posobiec as he lures over, looms over all of us here.

02:31:32.000 Uh, what an amazing speech that was.

02:31:34.120 Uh, we were just kind of marveling at Speaker Mike Johnson with his little deportation effort with the gavel.

02:31:41.200 Um, and pretty remarkable.

02:31:42.840 We love, Rav, we love Real America's Voice.

02:31:44.500 Just a reminder, all of you guys watching on Real America's Voice, download the Real America's Voice app.

02:31:49.140 You can watch my show every single day at 12 p.m. Eastern and also Jack Posobiec right afterwards.

02:31:54.820 We also have Turning Point Tonight every evening, which I actually think would be on, I think this is almost approximately when the re-air of the Charlie Kirk show would be on on Rav.

02:32:03.100 Anyway, so much to cover, guys.

02:32:04.580 Let's go to some more tape here of, um, Speaker Mike Johnson getting a little bit fired up.

02:32:10.860 Uh, this is 1-34.

02:32:12.880 Oh, this is when, oh, I'm sorry, this is Al Green, uh, who is going, going when he went after the reporters.

02:32:20.540 Al Green, you know what Al Green was shouting?

02:32:23.260 I voted for Trans Mice.

02:32:25.320 That's what he was.

02:32:26.780 I watched.

02:32:28.440 This is amazing.

02:32:29.900 Play Cut 134.

02:32:30.760 He is a person who has consistently been in, used incivility against civility.

02:32:37.880 Do you, do you, do you, is that what you said?

02:32:40.700 Well, look, I, I, I'm willing to suffer whatever punishment is available to me.

02:32:45.440 I didn't say to anyone, don't punish me.

02:32:48.040 I've said I'll accept the punishment, but it's worth it to let people know that there are some of us who are going to stand up against this president's desire to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security.

02:32:58.980 Before you say, I just, okay, that's the best they got.

02:33:03.020 By the way, he's all alone.

02:33:03.780 I think he thought he's going to have some sort of show of force.

02:33:05.720 Yes.

02:33:06.000 That was, that was the Jerry Maguire of the joint session.

02:33:09.500 Who's coming with me?

02:33:10.860 It's like, it's like, it's a, you know, like a Napoleon move and he charges out.

02:33:14.420 It's like, man, follow me.

02:33:16.020 And he runs up, turns around.

02:33:17.680 No one followed him, gets blown away.

02:33:19.320 No, no, the, uh, the Sergeant R's came down to him and whispered to him.

02:33:22.520 That's what he was saying to him was, Hey, nobody's with you.

02:33:25.760 Nobody's with you.

02:33:26.840 You're not cool.

02:33:27.800 You're not cool.

02:33:28.980 I, I, I, I think they're all legends of their own minds.

02:33:31.920 They actually thought that like all the Democrats would like come with him as if the, you know, Moses parting the Red Sea and like everyone just marches out.

02:33:41.400 And then they realized it was just Al Green, but not like, not like the good Al Green.

02:33:46.660 I just, I just want to know why it is that snuff, Mr. Snuffleupagus was escorted out.

02:33:52.600 I just really need to know why that was.

02:33:55.400 Let's, uh, this, this was one of my favorite moments.

02:33:58.020 This was president Donald Trump saying, so how did all that work out for you?

02:34:01.800 Just a beautiful taunt to these savages that wanted to put Donald Trump in Rikers Island, a taunt to all of them and making them eat it.

02:34:11.400 In front of their face, in front of the media.

02:34:14.020 He deserves all this, by the way, president Trump should have gone.

02:34:16.540 He was by Trump terms, very restrained and presidential because he could have gone a lot harder on them on this stuff.

02:34:24.120 A lot harder considering a lot of the architects of the Trump lawfare were in the audience.

02:34:30.440 Schiff was there.

02:34:31.640 Adam Schiff was in the audience.

02:34:32.960 A lot of these people that have been trying to put Donald Trump behind bars were right there.

02:34:37.240 Let's play cut one 21.

02:34:38.520 And we've ended weaponized government where, as an example, a sitting president is allowed to viciously prosecute his political opponent, like me.

02:34:51.280 How did that work out?

02:34:53.300 Not too good.

02:34:54.980 Not too good.

02:34:55.900 And I have stopped all government censorship and brought back free speech in America.

02:35:15.000 It's back.

02:35:15.660 And two days ago, I signed an order making English the official language of the United States of America.

02:35:32.200 Also, a shout-out to Tygon, 20 bucks.

02:35:41.180 Thank you, guys.

02:35:42.240 He says his message was, thank you, Charlie.

02:35:44.200 Hello, Tygon.

02:35:44.860 My name is Charlie.

02:35:46.580 Oh, Charlie.

02:35:47.320 Very good.

02:35:48.280 So, lawfare.

02:35:49.540 I think it's French.

02:35:50.600 Charlay.

02:35:51.420 Charlay.

02:35:52.120 I got a lot of friends in France.

02:35:53.560 Charlay Cook.

02:35:54.060 You do.

02:35:54.820 The French love you.

02:35:55.440 Who wants to take this?

02:35:56.720 Charlay in Francais.

02:35:58.100 Is this the end of the modern lawfare state?

02:36:03.460 Who wants to take it?

02:36:04.700 That's a big question.

02:36:05.640 Have we seen an end?

02:36:07.400 The point being that it's now not just unethical so that it's wrong, but what Trump might have done is that it actually could create a political force that could displace you, meaning that it's now politically dangerous to do this.

02:36:20.820 I think, given how aggressive the left got, kind of the best way to check it is a sense of mutually assured destruction.

02:36:28.140 And if there is a fear that if you go way beyond the bounds of what can remotely be justified, that you'll get vaporized by the DOJ in some way, that will encourage polite behavior.

02:36:40.760 And an armed society is a polite society, as a lot of gun rights activists like to say.

02:36:45.820 And we can have that same principle apply to lawfare.

02:36:51.140 The best guarantee against lawfare is that both sides can do it to each other.

02:36:55.880 Thank you, Max Q, for a $5 donation.

02:36:58.700 Thank you very much.

02:36:59.580 Mutually assured destruction.

02:37:00.980 Yeah.

02:37:01.360 Well, I mean, I would say that my read on it is their overreaction to Trump, even as he's been president, and they're saying he's weaponizing the DOJ, Kash Patel, whatever.

02:37:11.840 It's simply a projection of their own guilt onto themselves because they know that they acted out of line.

02:37:17.160 They know that they have it coming, and they know that he has every right to seek a little bit of retribution after what happened to him.

02:37:22.080 And so all of this is projection.

02:37:24.220 All of this is them being fearful.

02:37:26.560 I love the side-by-side clip of Kash Patel before he was even nominated to be a FBI director saying, you know, Schiff is a criminal.

02:37:36.300 He's the number one criminal in Congress.

02:37:37.860 And then you've got Schiff protesting Kash Patel becoming the next FBI director.

02:37:42.800 There's a reason these people are running in panic.

02:37:45.100 Well, and that's with bullies.

02:37:46.940 I mean, the only way that you can defeat a bully is by standing up to a bully, and you've got to, like, punch back.

02:37:52.220 And sometimes it takes the whole school.

02:37:53.700 Sometimes it takes the group.

02:37:55.460 And these people are individual bullies.

02:37:57.360 There's not that many of them.

02:37:58.340 It's just, it's really a dozen really bad people that are directing hundreds of sheep.

02:38:05.120 But they're enabled by the sheep.

02:38:06.480 Well, for sure.

02:38:07.180 But, like, we have hundreds of thousands, millions of people who are willing to step up now.

02:38:11.880 All right.

02:38:12.720 Here is the overly happy and joyous.

02:38:17.020 When I think of joy in the morning, I think of Rachel Maddow on MSNBC.

02:38:24.260 There's no other joys we can think of on MSNBC anymore.

02:38:27.100 Don't say it.

02:38:28.060 I'm just so, I'm just so much.

02:38:31.960 We lost Jack.

02:38:33.040 This is Rachel the Great.

02:38:36.740 Play cut 140.

02:38:38.740 For the record, and this is disgusting, the president made a spectacle out of praising a young man who thus far survived pediatric cancer.

02:38:51.000 As if the president had something to do with that.

02:38:53.880 This was in the midst of him praising Doge.

02:38:56.880 Doge cuts, among other things, have cut off funding for ongoing research into pediatric cancer.

02:39:03.040 Do you notice she kind of does that thing where she just kind of, like, smugly ends every sentence?

02:39:10.060 Yeah.

02:39:10.340 Pediatric cancer.

02:39:12.000 Pediatric cancer.

02:39:13.120 Yes.

02:39:13.640 And I hate it.

02:39:14.300 Do you know what I mean?

02:39:14.880 I totally agree.

02:39:15.840 It's like, it's, I want to say dialectically.

02:39:18.420 I guess that is the right word, right?

02:39:19.560 It is.

02:39:19.980 It's an intonation down.

02:39:21.240 Exactly.

02:39:21.900 It's, like, configured into the DNA of how she speaks.

02:39:26.160 It's like the attitude has a parallel.

02:39:28.460 Dude, I could talk about this for hours.

02:39:31.960 It's, it's, it is a way that Democrats and people in Washington, D.C. and anyone who's been, you guys have all spent time at D.C. recently.

02:39:39.180 It's a way of indicating that you're on the same team as someone when you match this weird, like, D.C.

02:39:46.260 Totally.

02:39:46.920 Bicoastal inflection.

02:39:48.000 But specifically one that travels between, like, the D.C.-Georgetown area where you are putting pronunciation on strange words.

02:39:58.960 And sometimes, and then if you're Chris Hayes, what you will do is at the end of every sentence, you will then go up.

02:40:06.740 And then you will say, Elon Musk?

02:40:09.440 It's like you're, like, you're getting scared as you're saying the word or something.

02:40:12.920 It's completely ridiculous.

02:40:14.820 The opposite of which, of course, is Tulsi Gabbard, who always goes down at the end of her sentences.

02:40:18.660 No, that is true.

02:40:19.340 She does go down.

02:40:20.420 I think I stay pretty, pretty even.

02:40:22.560 I think you got to kind of be dead.

02:40:24.920 You have your moments, Charlie.

02:40:25.860 You have your moments.

02:40:26.800 Oh, when I go up or I go down?

02:40:28.260 That's the question.

02:40:28.980 We'll see.

02:40:29.480 It's a very coffee shop Karen conversation.

02:40:32.740 Totally.

02:40:33.180 Like, if you overhear.

02:40:34.180 Yeah.

02:40:34.800 Have you ever heard, like, Karens, like, talking about how much they hate Trump in, like, a coffee shop?

02:40:39.400 Yeah, but it has to be in, like, a big city.

02:40:40.640 It's the eternal Obama inflection, kind of.

02:40:45.160 That's what it always makes me think.

02:40:46.200 It's definitely a female Karen-y thing.

02:40:48.720 Let's go to Cut 122, one of my favorite remarks.

02:40:53.860 Just calling out the Democrats for who they are, what they believe, and their nonsense.

02:40:57.760 Let's play Cut 122.

02:41:00.580 And once again, I look at the Democrats in front of me, and I realize there is absolutely nothing I can say to make them happy or to make them stand or smile or applaud.

02:41:12.840 Nothing I can do.

02:41:13.720 I could find a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe out entire nations or announce the answers to the greatest economy in history or the stoppage of crime to the lowest levels ever recorded.

02:41:31.220 And these people sitting right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not cheer for these astronomical achievements.

02:41:41.500 They won't do it, no matter what.

02:41:43.120 Five times I've been up here.

02:41:46.180 It's very sad.

02:41:47.420 And it just shouldn't be this way.

02:41:51.240 All right.

02:41:51.680 I also want to say thank you, Shonek and Shadow, for your support.

02:41:55.580 They said, quote, thank.

02:41:56.820 They couldn't stand for the victims.

02:41:57.980 May God help them.

02:41:59.020 Poor Pocahontas couldn't even look up from her phone.

02:42:01.440 Also getting lots of questions asking about our hat.

02:42:04.240 That is charliekirkstore.com.

02:42:06.760 Ryan will put it in the chat.

02:42:08.620 That is charliekirkstore.com.

02:42:10.380 If you guys want to wear this 47 hat or this Doge shirt, we'll get them off for you guys.

02:42:16.860 I see the 47 hat everywhere.

02:42:18.940 It's amazing.

02:42:19.660 Everywhere.

02:42:20.420 It has blanketed the value.

02:42:21.880 It's actually really good quality.

02:42:24.180 Not to toot our own hair, but it's, what do you call it, plush or whatever?

02:42:27.540 It stands out.

02:42:29.580 I think it was Justin that the day after the election, he's like, what do you think about this design?

02:42:33.960 I'm like, that's amazing.

02:42:36.160 It's unique, by the way.

02:42:37.180 And it's understated, so you don't get, well, maybe some people want that.

02:42:41.260 But it's kind of a code, right?

02:42:42.560 Yeah, exactly.

02:42:43.960 And people look at it like, imagine if you're totally non-political and you're just like, what the hell is that?

02:42:51.280 What is 47?

02:42:52.160 Is that a football player or is that like a basketball player?

02:42:54.960 Something the kids are doing?

02:42:56.580 Exactly.

02:42:57.480 Imagine.

02:42:58.020 They think it's a sports.

02:42:58.980 Yay, sports.

02:42:59.700 So, okay.

02:43:00.100 Let's go to another.

02:43:01.340 By the way, you guys can purchase them and also become a member if you'd like.

02:43:05.800 Members.CharlieKirk.com.

02:43:07.440 Let's go here to this one.

02:43:09.780 One of my favorite.

02:43:10.820 Okay, so, by the way, there's a lot more tape here.

02:43:12.680 Nicole Wallace has just attacked this guy with brain cancer as well, saying, quote,

02:43:16.680 I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump supporters.

02:43:22.120 Yikes, that's dark.

02:43:23.260 We're about to have it.

02:43:24.440 These people are, I mean, these are demented people.

02:43:27.240 I mean, that's really sick.

02:43:28.320 That's like sick, sick stuff, man.

02:43:30.640 Nasty folks.

02:43:31.700 Here is the beautiful moment.

02:43:33.140 Let's watch it.

02:43:33.720 Let's keep our mics live here.

02:43:35.660 This is the one that, it was so powerful.

02:43:37.740 You know the best moment because the Democrats have to go all in on it, where President Trump

02:43:41.920 appoints 13-year-old DJ Daniel, who has brain cancer and only months to live, as an honorary

02:43:47.640 Secret Service agent.

02:43:49.640 And the MSNBC decides to go all in attacking this kid.

02:43:54.340 Well, attacking Trump for celebrating.

02:43:56.680 No, no, no.

02:43:56.820 I mean, no, I'm saying I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against

02:44:02.040 Trump supporters.

02:44:02.700 No, they are attacking him.

02:44:03.780 This is the real sick line.

02:44:04.660 And if he does, I hope he isn't one of the six who loses his life to suicide.

02:44:08.660 She straight up says that.

02:44:10.060 That's crazy.

02:44:11.980 You should.

02:44:12.560 I mean, these people are.

02:44:13.640 I mean, this is.

02:44:14.700 You should be yanked off of TV because the FCC.

02:44:18.140 Again, I'm not big on cancel culture, but that's, I mean.

02:44:21.380 All right.

02:44:21.640 Let's watch this.

02:44:22.700 Mike's on.

02:44:23.520 Crazy.

02:44:23.620 And can we please get Nicole Wallace?

02:44:26.140 I want.

02:44:26.580 And then can we tweet it and really do our thing there?

02:44:29.080 Uh, one 30, please.

02:44:31.440 2018.

02:44:32.740 DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer.

02:44:35.960 The doctors gave him five months at most to live.

02:44:40.500 That was more than six years ago.

02:44:43.280 Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make his dream come true.

02:44:49.620 And DJ has been sworn in as an honorary law enforcement officer, actually a number of times.

02:44:57.320 Peace.

02:44:57.800 The police love him.

02:44:59.120 The police departments love him.

02:45:00.840 And tonight, DJ, we're going to do you the biggest honor of them all.

02:45:05.420 I am asking our new Secret Service director, Sean Curran, to officially make you an agent of the United States Secret Service.

02:45:15.620 So beautiful.

02:45:16.120 That was a touching moment.

02:45:46.640 And that's Mark Curran, the same guy that was next to Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.

02:45:50.380 Yeah.

02:45:50.560 So here is now, with that framing, breaking news, Nicole Wallace.

02:45:56.440 Again, it takes a lot for me to kind of get outraged about cable news chattering.

02:46:00.440 Like, it's just kind of talking at each other.

02:46:02.240 They have to come up with something.

02:46:03.880 I talk about maybe less than half of 1% of incendiary stuff makes it onto the Charlie Kirk show.

02:46:08.320 Usually they come on, like, whatever.

02:46:09.440 Yeah.

02:46:10.120 Play cut 143.

02:46:11.180 But I think this was a lesson in finding one thing that you let yourself feel.

02:46:17.320 And I let myself feel joy about DJ.

02:46:21.560 And I hope he's alive for another, you know, 95 years.

02:46:26.640 Right?

02:46:27.020 And I hope he lives the life he wants to live.

02:46:30.700 He wants to be a cop.

02:46:31.520 He knows what he wants to do.

02:46:32.500 And maybe when you have childhood cancer, that crystallizes for you.

02:46:36.260 And I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer.

02:46:39.840 But I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump supporters.

02:46:44.580 And if he does, I hope he isn't one of the six who loses his life to suicide.

02:46:49.140 And I hope he isn't one who has to testify against the people who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then lived to see Donald Trump pardon those people.

02:46:57.020 Now, how do you make that mental jump?

02:47:03.160 Did you hear the sound of silence from our panel for, like, two seconds?

02:47:08.080 Like, the pain.

02:47:10.380 Yeah, Jack, what's your take there?

02:47:12.440 So what it is is, again, the NPC mind only runs on what its last programming is.

02:47:21.660 So the MSNBC news talker, who doesn't come up with their own minds themselves, who doesn't write their own scripts, she's scrambling because she doesn't have her producers in her ear telling her what to say.

02:47:34.080 And so she's thinking, oh, well, the last time I've said anything positive about police officers, it was directly to January 6th.

02:47:41.980 So she's just going right back to whatever the current standard programming model is for police officers.

02:47:48.660 So you can't say police officer racist.

02:47:50.800 You can't say police officer, oh, they target black people because obviously it doesn't work here.

02:47:54.700 So she's got to say police officer good.

02:47:56.240 And that means, oh, January 6th.

02:47:58.480 And then, but then the problem is she takes it, she just goes way too far down the line because she runs the entire program.

02:48:05.040 What you're actually seeing here, this is very instructive into understanding the NPC model.

02:48:09.440 The way the NPC works, the non-player character, is they're just running programs.

02:48:13.820 And so she just runs the J6 program over.

02:48:16.620 And I honestly guarantee you she doesn't even realize what she said.

02:48:20.300 I wish I could read the chat right now, Charlie, but I can't.

02:48:23.380 It's too many beeps.

02:48:24.900 I want to read a couple of these.

02:48:26.860 This is FB for $10.

02:48:29.140 Thank you.

02:48:30.120 It's amazing.

02:48:31.060 Hey, Charlie, I don't know if you'll see this, but you inspired me to join the Navy.

02:48:34.480 You never talk about military service, really, which is true.

02:48:37.060 I don't, but the belief of willing to fight for my fellow man started with you.

02:48:40.860 That's really amazing.

02:48:41.500 That's amazing.

02:48:42.100 I'd love to send you a signed hat or book and meet you one day.

02:48:45.860 And God bless you.

02:48:46.800 Thank you for wanting to serve our country.

02:48:48.180 You are in much better hands now serving under President Trump and Pete Hegseth and the entire team there.

02:48:53.840 And recruitment is going through the roof.

02:48:55.160 It's going through the roof.

02:48:56.040 Charlie, can you please wish my mom a happy birthday?

02:48:58.260 Her name is Valerie.

02:48:59.440 She's watching now.

02:49:00.800 Scooty.

02:49:01.780 Happy birthday, Valerie.

02:49:03.180 Gary, God bless you.

02:49:04.660 And today is the 4th of March, so God bless you.

02:49:08.380 This is Ann Coleman.

02:49:10.360 Ooh, this is a good one.

02:49:11.780 Thank you, Charlie and team.

02:49:13.140 When can we see the podcast with New Scum?

02:49:16.200 It's supposed to post Thursday morning on his channels, right?

02:49:19.900 Yep.

02:49:20.580 Now, did I do good or not so good, Andrew?

02:49:23.180 10 out of 10.

02:49:23.760 I think that's great.

02:49:24.580 I think people are going to enjoy it.

02:49:25.600 All right.

02:49:26.600 That's it.

02:49:27.360 So good?

02:49:28.000 So everyone should watch it.

02:49:29.040 It was the most enjoyable experience I've ever had being in the room with you while you did an interview.

02:49:35.820 It was completely electric.

02:50:36.960 Let's recap more of this here together.

02:50:38.940 I love this right here.

02:50:40.720 President Trump informs Jason Hartley.

02:50:42.740 Whoever gave the president this advice.

02:50:45.040 I think I know who it was.

02:50:46.180 Probably Susie or Taylor or the great team over there.

02:50:48.480 to kind of do the Oprah Winfrey thing and just kind of like, and you get a car and you get

02:50:53.300 very smart, right?

02:50:54.840 And you go to West Point and I'm pardoning you.

02:50:57.240 You're doing this.

02:50:58.580 Boom.

02:50:59.040 Very smart.

02:51:00.060 Executive order.

02:51:00.780 The executive order.

02:51:01.180 Oh, it was amazing.

02:51:02.000 I mean, it was, again, it was, it was a reality show.

02:51:04.240 This wasn't, it was like, what news, what is he going to do next?

02:51:06.600 By the way, did I not predict the West Point thing?

02:51:08.300 I was like, he's going to, he's going to offer.

02:51:09.820 Yeah, but I don't know.

02:51:10.440 You might've got some early advance notice.

02:51:13.780 I have no sources.

02:51:14.780 By the way, Charlie can't even talk about half the stuff he, you know, so whatever.

02:51:18.480 1.33.

02:51:20.440 We're joined tonight by a young man, Jason Hartley, who knows the weight of that call

02:51:26.780 of duty.

02:51:27.920 Jason's father, grandfather, and great-grandfather all wore the uniform.

02:51:33.480 Jason tragically lost his dad, who was also a Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputy when he

02:51:40.280 was just a boy, and now he wants to carry on the family legacy of service.

02:51:44.720 Jason is a senior in high school, a six-letter varsity athlete, a really good athlete, they

02:51:51.040 say, a brilliant student with a 4.46, that's good, GPA.

02:51:57.180 And his greatest dream is to attend the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.

02:52:03.320 I'm pleased to inform you that your application has been accepted.

02:52:07.700 You will soon be joining the court.

02:52:14.540 Don't you love that?

02:52:15.760 It's just great.

02:52:16.520 I don't know how you can hate on that.

02:52:19.020 If you're a Democrat and you didn't get up, I mean, I didn't see the crowd shot in that

02:52:23.320 moment, but if you're a Democrat and you didn't get up, I mean, how do you not celebrate that?

02:52:27.280 It's America's preeminent military academy, and this young man just had his dreams come

02:52:33.340 true.

02:52:33.560 Well, like, what are you going to hate on?

02:52:34.640 Because he's white?

02:52:35.200 And you can tell he was legitimately surprised.

02:52:38.340 Yeah.

02:52:38.560 The best part about that interaction, he did not see that coming at all, and he was like,

02:52:44.380 oh my gosh, because he's young, kids can't fake it most of the time.

02:52:48.500 He was totally shocked.

02:52:49.460 And by the way, you saw that with the young cancer survivor, DJ.

02:52:52.540 When they told him he got to be an honorary member of the U.S. Secret Service, and he gets

02:52:56.420 a hug from the Secret Service director, and his dad's lifting him up.

02:52:59.980 I mean, truly, truly touching stuff.

02:53:02.720 Just to be clear, Trump never actually said the word honorary.

02:53:08.960 So, I mean, I think DJ's on the job.

02:53:11.320 You know, that's full on.

02:53:12.360 Well, it's an upgrade from what we've had in your life.

02:53:15.020 That's a commitment.

02:53:15.940 I was crying for, I mean, I'm telling you, Charlie knows this.

02:53:21.820 I think you guys might know this.

02:53:23.040 My family was impacted by illegal immigration at one point.

02:53:25.520 Big time.

02:53:26.880 Violent crime.

02:53:27.760 And I was in absolute tears over the 12-year-old girl who got murdered.

02:53:34.800 Nungaree?

02:53:35.400 I want to mess up her name.

02:53:36.520 Nungaree, yeah.

02:53:37.640 Jocelyn Nungaree.

02:53:38.340 Jocelyn Nungaree.

02:53:39.360 Terrible.

02:53:40.660 Nungaree Nungaree.

02:53:41.680 I'm not sure.

02:53:42.080 And Naomi, the mom.

02:53:43.300 You saw the mom holding it together.

02:53:45.240 I don't know if we have this clip.

02:53:46.480 But the mom keeping it composed through that, I was choked up.

02:53:52.480 Like, I was tearing up.

02:53:54.200 And it was like back to back to back with all this stuff that made it so special.

02:54:01.020 Like Charlie said, it wasn't just that you get a car, you get a thing named after you.

02:54:06.800 But there was the emotional side that was attached to each of these people.

02:54:09.520 And it was incredible.

02:54:10.240 Someone says, Charlie, for someone like myself that's dealt with severe brain injury when

02:54:14.780 I was younger, I know how it feels to be attacked like that.

02:54:16.920 But in this case, cancer.

02:54:18.040 But I do forgive them.

02:54:19.020 That's $10 from Derek.

02:54:20.060 Got it.

02:54:20.900 Let's see.

02:54:21.520 $50 one.

02:54:22.300 Charlie, I stood up for my insanely liberal professors today.

02:54:25.220 Stood up to my insanely liberal professors today.

02:54:28.360 You helped me gain confidence in standing up for what I believe.

02:54:31.620 Thank you so much.

02:55:01.620 God will continue to lift up America if we stay humble.

02:55:04.980 I want to play one of the funnier lines,

02:55:07.060 but we're also doing a giveaway.

02:55:42.700 One of the more memorable moments and funny moments is 125.

02:55:46.980 Over 130,000 people, according to the social security databases, are age over 160 years old.

02:56:03.320 We have a healthier country than I thought, Bobby.

02:56:06.000 I mean, you just got to, this is great.

02:56:10.100 I think that was off, off the cuff, right?

02:56:12.160 Probably.

02:56:12.720 Yeah.

02:56:13.060 That sounds like an original.

02:56:14.600 In Bobby's face after that, when he went to him, he was like, oh, the cameras are on me.

02:56:19.360 Yeah.

02:56:20.760 By the way, I love Bobby.

02:56:22.620 It's just, no one can make me hate Bobby.

02:56:24.480 Bobby's got this, almost like an aura about, what's up, Jack?

02:56:29.080 Yes, Jack.

02:56:29.940 Do you guys see the Chinese government just now?

02:56:34.860 What did they do?

02:56:36.420 Yeah, they talk.

02:56:39.540 This is, I wouldn't derail this too much.

02:56:42.200 This is a bit more, I wouldn't derail it, but no, it's, I think we have to, I think we have

02:56:46.600 to call it out when there's responses like this, because the, the, what is it?

02:56:49.920 People's, people's work with China is usually a bit more, uh, restrained in their responses.

02:56:55.380 The Chinese embassy in the U S tweeted out just as the speech was ending, if war is what

02:57:01.960 the U S wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war, or any type of war, we're ready to fight

02:57:08.020 till the end.

02:57:09.040 Um, that's the Chinese embassy in the United States on X with, with their great checkup.

02:57:15.640 Wow.

02:57:16.360 That's a great way to get more tariffs with Trump.

02:57:19.540 Good luck.

02:57:20.500 We hold the cards.

02:57:22.360 Um, okay.

02:57:23.340 So let's go here to, let's go to Derek, 10 bucks, Charlie, for somebody like myself that

02:57:28.620 has dealt with, I'm sorry, we already did that one.

02:57:30.480 Uh, let's go to another piece of tape here.

02:57:33.140 Let's go, um, to some reaction actually, uh, from the opposition.

02:57:37.760 Here is comrade Sanders responding to president Trump play cut one 46, nobody, nobody who was

02:57:47.080 150 years old or 200 years old or 300 years old is receiving social security checks.

02:57:55.160 Is that an SNL?

02:57:56.960 No, I was going to, first of all, why, why does it look like he's in a PBS studio?

02:58:01.180 Why does it look like he's 130 years old?

02:58:02.920 I know exactly.

02:58:03.780 For a second, I thought that was like one of our guys doing Bernie Sanders.

02:58:06.480 I thought it was a chick on.

02:58:08.520 Yeah.

02:58:08.900 That's Bernie.

02:58:10.300 I will say Bernie has, Bernie has impressive stamina.

02:58:13.180 I have to say, I mean.

02:58:14.440 How old is he now?

02:58:15.280 Like 84, 85?

02:58:16.540 I mean, like the octogenarian thing is really kind of hurting our politics.

02:58:20.280 Like, come on guys, you got to just go be with your grandkids.

02:58:22.220 Like be a normal person, right?

02:58:24.100 83.

02:58:24.520 Is he really?

02:58:25.500 1941.

02:58:26.340 He's so old.

02:58:27.080 So he turns 84, uh, in September.

02:58:30.120 He looks older than that too.

02:58:31.480 I mean, I mean, he's still, he's looking good for 83 or 84, but still, I mean, I completely

02:58:37.640 agree.

02:58:38.080 Joe Biden's 82.

02:58:39.120 He's one year behind him.

02:58:40.380 Nancy Pelosi's 84.

02:58:42.520 A lot of old, a lot of old, uh, octogenarians.

02:58:44.540 Octogenarians are going to lose a lot of people very quickly here.

02:58:47.980 Walt Bud says, I've been a member of Charlie Kirk members.

02:58:51.200 I love it.

02:58:51.880 More, uh, more people should get it.

02:58:54.060 That's right.

02:58:54.420 So members.charliekirk.com.

02:58:56.260 That is members.charliekirk.com.

02:58:58.900 More clips.

02:58:59.380 Okay.

02:58:59.760 We're, we're going to get to, okay.

02:59:00.980 Let's do some more.

02:59:01.920 All right.

02:59:02.160 We'll do more clips here.

02:59:03.140 Let's go to cut one 27.

02:59:05.840 By slashing all of the fraud, waste, and theft we can find, we will defeat inflation, bring

02:59:11.580 down mortgage rates, lower car payments, and grocery prices, protect our seniors, and put

02:59:16.980 more money in the pockets of American families.

02:59:20.300 And in the near future, I want to do what has not been done in 24 years.

02:59:27.280 Balance the federal budget.

02:59:29.020 We're going to balance it.

02:59:29.900 There we go.

02:59:30.700 I just love that we're talking about balancing the budget again.

02:59:38.480 As a goal, you might think it's improbable, Blake, but I will always say, it's a good aspiration.

02:59:43.280 I will always say what is, what is spoken will then be more likely to be done.

02:59:46.980 Yeah.

02:59:47.080 Why can't they do it, Blake?

02:59:49.440 Come on.

02:59:50.000 There's a lot of reasons.

02:59:51.500 Blake, they can do it.

02:59:52.800 Blake, believe.

02:59:54.420 Believe, Blake.

02:59:55.340 Don't let your memes be dreams, I guess.

02:59:58.720 Believe, Blake.

02:59:59.480 Like, we're going to, we're going to, if we do it, I will be the first one to line

03:00:04.060 up and be like, man, that guy, that guy did the impossible.

03:00:07.900 Yeah.

03:00:08.520 Because.

03:00:09.480 Yeah.

03:00:09.780 We do.

03:00:10.140 Well, you do.

03:00:10.960 We should, I mean, you should do something.

03:00:12.960 If Donald Trump successfully balances the budget.

03:00:15.140 Shave your eyebrows?

03:00:16.380 Let's not get too dramatic here.

03:00:18.720 If Donald Trump successfully balances the budget, I will wear a Minnesota Vikings jersey

03:00:24.740 on this show, and I will pledge my fealty to.

03:00:28.960 That doesn't mean anything for me.

03:00:29.980 This is going to be more real.

03:00:30.760 Nah, yeah.

03:00:31.720 Fine, I'll wear a Chicago Bears jersey.

03:00:33.720 All right, now we're getting closer.

03:00:34.540 Now we're talking.

03:00:35.720 I will wear a Chicago Bears jersey of your choice at this desk, and I will say that Mike

03:00:41.620 Ditka is my daddy.

03:00:44.240 If we balance the budget, I'll do that.

03:00:46.240 That will live in infamy for all the time.

03:00:47.540 I think you need to, like, write an op-ed that's titled, I was wrong about Trump.

03:00:54.940 I think Charlie would get more out of the first one.

03:00:59.720 I think that Blake going into the camera with a Bears jersey.

03:01:02.900 No, that's got to be the Bears sweater.

03:01:04.740 Meeting all the way.

03:01:06.240 I've got it.

03:01:07.060 Is that not the greatest memorabilia ever?

03:01:09.080 I have it.

03:01:09.880 It's in my closet.

03:01:10.480 I have one.

03:01:10.960 I lost mine.

03:01:11.560 I love those Bears.

03:01:12.820 During NFL season, I should just wear it one day on the show, right?

03:01:15.560 Yeah, you need to get it.

03:01:16.400 We'll get it for you as a present.

03:01:17.400 For sure.

03:01:17.820 But the Bears are so bad, it's like a humiliation ritual that, like, it's like, I should own

03:01:22.200 it.

03:01:22.540 Oh, I know.

03:01:23.160 Yeah.

03:01:23.640 The Bears should have been good in, like, 20 years.

03:01:25.720 Blake should have to wear a really thick Mike Ditka mustache for a full week.

03:01:29.500 Oh, you have to grow it.

03:01:30.340 For a full week.

03:01:31.140 No, no, no.

03:01:31.660 No, a fake one.

03:01:32.500 He's never going to grow it.

03:01:33.760 He might.

03:01:34.260 I could grow a mustache.

03:01:35.920 No, we need a full broom sweep.

03:01:38.820 I just need, like, a full walk of shame.

03:01:40.280 I just love this email.

03:01:41.380 By the way, I want you guys to email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.

03:01:43.780 Also, your reaction in addition, just to everything else, subscribing to our podcast.

03:01:47.780 I love this email.

03:01:48.840 Charlie, in three weeks, I'll be 70 years old.

03:01:50.580 So, preemptive happy birthday.

03:01:52.080 I have never been prouder to be an American.

03:01:53.880 More grateful to God for his answer to prayer on November 5th.

03:01:57.060 I'm also so grateful to God he saved me and kept me from becoming a hateful socialist.

03:02:01.320 Thank you and your entire staff, Charlie.

03:02:03.020 Your devotion to God.

03:02:04.860 And the truth was beyond anything we could have imagined.

03:02:07.620 God is good all the time.

03:02:08.580 What a beautiful email.

03:02:09.620 I mean, people are just effusively grateful in the emails that we are receiving right now.

03:02:16.180 And I do have to wonder that when the Democrats won back at this time equivalent in 2021,

03:02:21.780 do you think their emails were full of, like, thank yous to God?

03:02:26.100 And I don't think so, right?

03:02:27.940 Probably not to God.

03:02:28.480 Probably not to God.

03:02:28.800 It was probably like, I wonder what that Trump man is doing right now.

03:02:31.380 The image that will always stick with me.

03:02:33.040 I'm so grateful to the crystals in my...

03:02:34.800 The image that will always stick with me is Steven Pinker, the Harvard professor, doing

03:02:38.040 the extremely cringe dance on Twitter with his wife.

03:02:42.240 That's the one I'll always remember.

03:02:44.580 There was, like, a bunch of those during the campaign where they would get together and

03:02:48.380 try and be the party of joy.

03:02:49.800 But it was, like, so forced.

03:02:51.100 Brandon says, because he gave five bucks, Bernie says, no one is 100 years old.

03:02:56.900 Me, Bernie, your yearbook is signed by Adam and Eve.

03:03:00.460 Okay.

03:03:01.340 And we got Val 1224, Charlie.

03:03:04.260 Trump's body language tonight was outstanding.

03:03:07.920 Pramila 145.

03:03:10.100 I just walked out of Trump's address, joint address to Congress.

03:03:18.960 I went there because I was insistent that I wanted to hear directly from him what he

03:03:23.320 had to say.

03:03:24.120 But after hearing him spew lie after lie after lie, racism and xenophobia at the center of

03:03:30.720 everything, I walked out.

03:03:32.900 And I'm going to insist that we stand up for our constituents, for the American people across

03:03:37.780 this country, and fight back so that we can make sure we're delivering for working people

03:03:42.420 everywhere.

03:03:44.100 All right.

03:03:44.800 I've been corrected.

03:03:45.700 It's Jayapal.

03:03:47.220 Yes.

03:03:48.320 Yes.

03:03:49.160 She is the, isn't she the, like, leader of the progressive caucus within the Democrats?

03:03:53.680 Something like that.

03:03:54.640 We've got Rachel Maddow, Big Mad, Plague Cut 144.

03:03:59.220 For the record, the economy that he was left by President Biden was not a catastrophe.

03:04:04.840 It was literally the best economy in the world.

03:04:09.000 It was described by The Economist magazine as the envy of the world.

03:04:12.960 That was the economy that was left to Donald Trump by Joe Biden.

03:04:17.880 It says the multimillionaire who gets $20 million a year to work one day a week.

03:04:22.900 Spare me, Rachel Maddow.

03:04:24.140 Everything's just fine for you.

03:04:26.020 You know, this is one of the most telling moments, Charlie, when you're on campus, by

03:04:29.800 the way, there will always be one smug little, you know, econ student that goes, ah, the economy

03:04:36.500 is the best of the G7, blah, blah, blah.

03:04:38.560 And then you look at the audience and you go, how many of you are struggling to afford

03:04:42.120 your bills?

03:04:42.740 How many of you had more money four years ago?

03:04:45.180 And it's like every single hand goes up.

03:04:47.320 Every single time that you appeal to the audience, everybody's like, yeah, I'm not doing that

03:04:52.840 well.

03:04:53.040 So the best economy, the envy of the world was terrible for everybody else.

03:04:58.080 OK, Rachel Maddow.

03:04:59.300 So enjoy that.

03:05:01.860 Here we have.

03:05:04.120 I think I've hit my quota of sharp comments.

03:05:07.280 Play cut 147.

03:05:10.880 All right.

03:05:11.620 I don't have a lot of time.

03:05:12.700 I just came off the house floor.

03:05:14.380 I could not stand one more second.

03:05:16.080 Tolerate one more second.

03:05:17.780 This man who pardoned January 6th insurrectionists, who desecrated the very chamber that we are

03:05:26.300 sitting in in this moment.

03:05:27.580 This man who has no respect for Congress, does not respect us as a co-equal branch of government,

03:05:33.000 who has put us into a constitutional crisis.

03:05:36.320 This man with his hateful rhetoric and his even more harmful policies.

03:05:40.600 I went because I wanted to honor my state of the union or my joint address of Congress

03:05:45.400 guest, Claire from Everett, a probationary federal worker who was damn good at her job

03:05:50.760 at housing and urban development, enforcing fair housing laws.

03:05:55.960 She was fired.

03:05:58.400 She didn't deserve that.

03:06:00.600 The work that she did remains unfinished.

03:06:04.260 There are people that will be unhoused because that work is unfinished.

03:06:08.120 There is housing that will not get built because that work is unfinished and her life has been

03:06:13.080 completely upended and disrupted.

03:06:16.460 And because Claire is also a manual wheelchair user and navigated a lot of ableist spaces to

03:06:23.560 come here today, I wanted to take a seat and take up space and honor her.

03:06:27.720 But there is no way that I could stay there for this address.

03:06:33.040 It is insult to injury, the lies, and the propaganda.

03:06:36.700 Did she just say something about ableist spaces there?

03:06:40.700 I heard some sort of high frequency noise.

03:06:43.660 It was shrill indeed.

03:06:47.180 We continue as our march through the cut sheet.

03:06:50.080 This is making all the news.

03:06:51.660 The media is very mad about it.

03:06:52.940 President Trump going after Elizabeth Warren, who, by the way, has become a huge neocon.

03:06:57.780 Can we just appreciate how Elizabeth Warren has become just a shrill neocon?

03:07:01.980 She's full Liz Cheney now.

03:07:03.180 Like full Liz Cheney, just like full war machine.

03:07:06.900 She's wearing the Ukrainian pin.

03:07:08.440 Oh, we got more 47 hats.

03:07:09.840 She's doing the war dance.

03:07:11.160 We're going to put them on.

03:07:12.100 She's doing the war dance.

03:07:15.780 She's doing the war dance.

03:07:17.260 Let's play cut 135.

03:07:18.340 Do you want to keep it going for another five years?

03:07:43.380 Yeah, you would say Pocahontas says yes.

03:07:48.980 That felt really epic.

03:07:51.440 Yeah, it was great.

03:07:53.100 Like, you didn't mean to.

03:07:53.920 It just happened.

03:07:54.740 You just had to.

03:07:58.900 And it goes to her.

03:08:00.740 She's just like, yeah.

03:08:02.380 I mean, so who wants to take this just from a more philosophical and less lighthearted,

03:08:08.380 but just briefly, what is driving someone like Elizabeth Warren, who obviously had or

03:08:14.060 might still have some presidential ambitions, who never used to be a neocon, to just go all

03:08:19.500 in?

03:08:19.920 How do you explain this, Tyler?

03:08:22.340 I'll just say from a political, sociological standpoint, I dwell on this every day.

03:08:28.200 And actually, just this weekend, I had somebody that's related to me reach out to me and some

03:08:34.680 drunken stupor messaged me and say something about Trump, and relevant to the anti-war sentiment

03:08:42.660 of what happened in the White House this last week.

03:08:44.460 And I said, I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm very proud to be anti-war.

03:08:48.040 And I think it's bizarre that every single Democrat who attacked feverishly for basically 15 years

03:08:56.680 the Republican Party for being so pro-war are now in full alignment.

03:09:01.560 And Charlie, I cannot understand it for the life of me that the most progressive, lunatic

03:09:07.680 Democrats are basically Liz Cheney now.

03:09:12.300 But think about this.

03:09:13.160 They have spent the last essentially eight years turning Putin into, you know, the devil

03:09:20.360 incarnate.

03:09:21.040 Yeah, but here's...

03:09:21.900 And so this being tied to Putin, they have made this boogeyman, and I'm not saying Putin

03:09:28.380 isn't a bad dude, like, okay, ad nauseum, I get it.

03:09:32.200 Terrible guy, invaded, he takes blame for that.

03:09:34.640 But like, they have turned him in to something larger and bigger because it's useful to their

03:09:40.760 narrative.

03:09:41.140 So they think anybody that doesn't just blindly stand with, like, the oligarch, you know, the

03:09:47.400 Ukrainian oligarch is somehow, you know, perpetrating a mass injustice on the world.

03:09:52.700 And it's because they have created this dichotomy, this black hat, white hat thing in their head

03:09:57.140 that just to get back at Trump, though.

03:09:59.040 But here's the crazy part, Andrew.

03:10:01.400 George W. Bush was best buddies with Putin.

03:10:05.380 Totally.

03:10:05.860 Well, remember when Hillary Clinton went with the reset button or whatever?

03:10:09.980 No, it's not even that.

03:10:10.680 George W. Bush would hang out on his ranch with Putin.

03:10:14.600 George W. Bush would go over.

03:10:16.740 They brought...

03:10:17.460 No, George W. Bush brought Putin to the elementary school in his hometown in Crawford.

03:10:22.640 Yeah, go ahead.

03:10:23.600 And they did a whole, welcome, Putin.

03:10:26.220 Yeah.

03:10:26.680 So this is what's so mind-blowing, which I cannot understand.

03:10:29.240 Oh, he had the pickup truck.

03:10:30.380 Remember the pickup truck?

03:10:31.160 Yes.

03:10:31.780 And Putin's just sitting there next to him.

03:10:35.040 Like, he's like...

03:10:35.820 Driving around.

03:10:36.580 Like, what's a buddy company?

03:10:37.620 I want to get out.

03:10:38.400 I want to go get a corndog or something.

03:10:40.440 Well, remember, he sat with Clinton, too, and said, hey, Clinton, I want to join NATO.

03:10:44.540 And Clinton was like, yeah, we can probably do that.

03:10:46.540 Here's the mind-blowing part, though.

03:10:48.260 The same people who were in that policy camp of being best buddies with Putin, which was the Dick Cheney-era foreign policy experts here, are the same people who have done exactly what you said, which is villainize Putin and blame Trump for it.

03:11:04.460 When they were the ones who were closer than anyone ever was.

03:11:08.600 And I studied.

03:11:09.120 This is what I studied in my Russia.

03:11:10.280 Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton made, like, what Bill Clinton...

03:11:13.520 Jack, you probably remember this.

03:11:14.500 It's like a $500,000 payment for speaking in Russia.

03:11:17.520 Nothing's closer to...

03:11:18.940 I'm telling you, George W. Bush and his relationship.

03:11:21.440 The Clinton Foundation got money for Uranium One, et cetera, et cetera.

03:11:25.960 You know, Tyler, I was going to say, though, but this actually is typical of the neocon, because the neocons all supported Saddam Hussein.

03:11:34.460 It was the neocons that totally supported the Mujahideen against the Soviet Union and completely funded and founded what later became the Taliban, as well as the early elements of al-Qaeda, the same elements of al-Qaeda that the neocons and neolibs also, to this day, are supporting in Syria.

03:11:56.240 So, if you look at it from a different perspective, it also goes to show you that they will use and drop foreign actors at a whim.

03:12:07.440 And that's because of this post-1990s mentality that it's the end of history.

03:12:12.520 The United States is the global hegemon.

03:12:14.640 We can do whatever we want.

03:12:16.020 We don't need to actually uphold any relationships, which is funny because those are all the things that they blame Trump for because he'll, like, make an offhanded comment or something or have us or J.D. Vance will make a comment about the British and will say that he's destroyed relations.

03:12:28.800 When, no, it's actually been their failed leadership over the past 40 years that has put us in this position to begin with and their insanity of, as you say, either you're working with someone one day and then you're vilifying them the next.

03:12:43.500 And then we expect them to think that we are rational actors when we seem the ones who are kind of like the drunken sailors, which I can say because I'm a sailor, although I don't drink.

03:12:54.380 Like, when we're the ones who are acting completely belligerently and we are the ones who are acting irrationally all the time.

03:13:01.640 Yeah.

03:13:02.380 Yeah.

03:13:02.900 I mean, I actually, just one note, I have a slightly different theory.

03:13:06.260 Democrats and progressives, what do they lift up more than anything else?

03:13:09.700 Institutions.

03:13:10.100 Well, there's institutions, but the institutions that were formed out of the civil rights era.

03:13:14.620 So they look at their ultimate heroes as the people that marched, the people that sat on the bus, you know, all of these things, the peaceful protests.

03:13:22.820 And they were going against something that they believe was objectively evil and bad and everything, right?

03:13:29.180 And in many ways that's accurate.

03:13:30.640 So what they are doing, progressives of the modern era, they have a sense that they have to find a boogeyman, even where one doesn't exist.

03:13:40.100 So their highest and best use of their time, they think, is like finding an oppressor to march against.

03:13:46.560 And so they will, they, Putin is the oppressor.

03:13:49.000 Trump is the oppressor, even though these are poorly directed energies for them, but they have to find something to march against because they have, they want to live up to their civil rights, like predecessors that they find to be the great heroes of American lore and history.

03:14:04.300 It's always 1968.

03:14:05.400 It's always, even though there's no, there's no boogeyman anymore.

03:14:08.420 There's no, the racism that they think they're fighting, they've come to embody.

03:14:12.280 So my whole theory with them is that they need a boogeyman, like every institution, they need a scapegoat in order to make themselves feel good.

03:14:19.660 I think with Putin, what happened was when he was hanging out in the truck in Crawford, Texas, Bush was like, what's like on your agenda?

03:14:29.280 He's like, I'd like to, you know, at least have some, some Crimea.

03:14:33.880 And then they were like, great.

03:14:35.260 And so Bush went to McCain and was like, hey, I found out what they want.

03:14:39.580 And then they're like, let's do this.

03:14:41.680 Let's start a whole color revolution.

03:14:43.540 And then we can get both sides of it.

03:14:45.660 What do you say, guys?

03:14:46.780 And this is, that's the entire American history and a lot of foreign policy in Eastern Europe in the last 15 years.

03:14:52.440 That's one take.

03:14:53.520 Certainly one take.

03:14:54.500 Oh, we got another comment here.

03:14:55.260 We got a great one.

03:14:56.040 Another, another one you'll want to read, Charlie, here.

03:14:58.420 Let me see here.

03:14:59.500 This is, wow.

03:15:03.220 Jeremy says, you inspired me to join the Border Patrol.

03:15:05.940 I'm prior service military.

03:15:07.360 Thank you.

03:15:08.000 Wow.

03:15:08.140 I'm 23 and you're motivated my generation to go from the silent majority to be very loud about our family and Christian values.

03:15:14.440 Thank you, Charlie.

03:15:15.500 That is Jeremy.

03:15:16.300 Jeremy, love to send you a signed hat.

03:15:17.900 We need more patriots in the Border Patrol.

03:15:19.800 That is admirable service.

03:15:21.500 If not on the same moral footing as the U.S. military, might I add.

03:15:25.420 Border Patrol is right there.

03:15:26.800 When we say serving your country, Border Patrol almost should be a portion of the U.S. military.

03:15:31.720 By the way, I didn't realize this.

03:15:32.840 They have this elite unit that's almost like the special forces of Border Patrol.

03:15:37.220 I forget what it's called, Jack.

03:15:38.360 Maybe you know.

03:15:39.020 But it's, what is it called?

03:15:41.660 Bortak.

03:15:42.460 Bortak.

03:15:42.820 Yeah, it's amazing, by the way.

03:15:44.580 They're super legit.

03:15:46.200 Those dudes are hardcore.

03:15:47.600 By the way, every single one of them voted for Trump.

03:15:50.040 I don't think a single one.

03:15:51.060 Guaranteed.

03:15:51.520 Guaranteed.

03:15:51.700 And they all live in Arizona.

03:15:53.260 This one here.

03:15:54.120 I love this one.

03:15:55.460 It's like $2.37.

03:15:58.720 Jordan Benoit.

03:15:59.980 I think I know him, actually.

03:16:01.500 Maybe I don't.

03:16:02.440 As a proud Canadian, I can't even be mad.

03:16:04.500 Our government is a disgrace.

03:16:05.580 Trump is looking after his country.

03:16:07.160 I only wish we had a strong, capable leader to do the same.

03:16:10.300 Fair enough.

03:16:10.840 Despite the stuff, we want the best for Canada.

03:16:15.620 No, of course we do.

03:16:16.700 I think you just had a great idea.

03:16:18.320 I think we should have another branch of the military.

03:16:20.960 It should be Border Patrol.

03:16:22.440 I think you should roll Border Patrol into DOD.

03:16:24.880 It would fix a lot of problems.

03:16:25.920 Oh, yeah.

03:16:26.620 It would be run differently, better funding.

03:16:29.660 By the way, it would end all the funding.

03:16:31.640 Could you just do that unilaterally?

03:16:33.180 Yeah, he should.

03:16:34.380 He did Space Force.

03:16:36.180 Space Force took Congress, though.

03:16:37.580 Oh, did it?

03:16:38.020 Yeah.

03:16:38.180 I thought he just did it.

03:16:39.160 He announced it, and then Congress agreed.

03:16:40.020 Can we play a clip here, Charlie?

03:16:42.520 I don't want to take the floor away from you, but it's this clip of Brit Hume.

03:16:47.660 And the reason I think this is interesting is that Brit Hume has literally come after people,

03:16:52.560 I won't say who, on this show.

03:16:55.340 He's kind of a hit-and-miss kind of guy.

03:16:57.340 This is him basically singing the praises of Donald J. Trump, and I believe it is 148.

03:17:05.040 This was the most boisterous, the longest, the most partisan speech I've ever heard a president

03:17:13.120 give in this kind of setting, and I go back about maybe 50 years on this.

03:17:17.540 I also think it may have been the most effective.

03:17:19.380 I mean, if you ever doubted that Donald Trump is the colossus, the political colossus of

03:17:24.600 our time and our nation, this night and this speech should have put that to rest.

03:17:29.800 The Democrats seem to be falling into trap after trap after trap as he recognized these

03:17:36.100 people and celebrated the people he pointed to in the gallery and their stories, while

03:17:42.500 the Democrats sat glumly on their hands through all of that.

03:17:45.400 It was a terrible look.

03:17:46.740 Al Green's attempt to disrupt the speech was a bad look for the Democrats.

03:17:51.600 This was, I think, politically speaking, this was pretty powerful.

03:17:57.340 All the moderate Democrats would be so mad at Al Green, and he couldn't be more right.

03:18:02.260 It's like an episode of Looney Tunes right now.

03:18:04.380 And it's just, it's like literally Coyote and Roadrunner stuff.

03:18:09.560 Yeah.

03:18:09.820 And the president is always the brilliant Roadrunner.

03:18:15.740 Yeah.

03:18:16.300 Well, I just love that line, though.

03:18:17.660 The colossus of our time.

03:18:19.700 I mean, he really is.

03:18:21.480 I mean, and I go back to the tariffs.

03:18:25.260 We've debated tariffs.

03:18:26.820 We've debated the Ukraine strategy.

03:18:30.480 I just think he's going to end up on the winning side of both of these issues.

03:18:35.320 It doesn't mean it's not going to be ugly in the short term, but I think he's going

03:18:38.940 to come out on top, and America's going to come out on top as a result.

03:18:42.640 I just, the colossus of our time is a line that really sticks out.

03:18:47.760 Yeah.

03:18:47.860 Okay, let's go to another piece of tape here.

03:18:52.000 Let's get to more Democrat reaction.

03:18:54.920 We had Ayanna Pressley.

03:18:57.740 We had Bernie Sanders.

03:18:59.100 We had Rachel Maddow.

03:19:00.680 Let's go to Jake Tapper.

03:19:02.200 Play cut 139.

03:19:04.620 Never heard a president attack the opposition in a speech like this in such a pointed way,

03:19:10.320 even going after to use a rather derisive nickname for Senator Elizabeth Warren.

03:19:17.760 A derisive.

03:19:19.660 Such a derisive.

03:19:21.000 Mr. Fake Tapper, who was part of the cover-up of his senility, and then he comes out and

03:19:27.800 says, inside the cover-up of Joe Biden's senility.

03:19:31.600 Like, the guy is, talk about just absolute brazen, like, BS, I mean, from a political

03:19:38.720 commentator.

03:19:39.360 The guy, and he is a political commentator.

03:19:41.540 He's not a journalist.

03:19:42.320 This guy's a partisan political commentator.

03:19:44.880 And to know that that tape exists of you and to still have the gall to go out and write

03:19:50.280 that book.

03:19:50.780 Anyways.

03:19:51.640 A hundred dollars.

03:19:52.620 Someone says, Charlie, what do you think of Netanyahu?

03:19:55.840 I like some of the stuff he does.

03:19:56.960 I don't like other stuff.

03:19:58.440 I'm not a member of the Israeli nation, so I don't have that strong of opinions of it.

03:20:02.500 I actually got to know his son.

03:20:03.380 His son's pretty cool.

03:20:04.500 So I'm guessing he means Yair.

03:20:06.400 So by the way, I can answer the question however I want.

03:20:08.180 What do I think of Yair Netanyahu?

03:20:10.380 Awesome guy.

03:20:11.660 Because it doesn't say Bibi.

03:20:12.580 He's a colorful guy.

03:20:13.440 So therefore, I answer the question, right?

03:20:15.600 You know, we're not apologists here.

03:20:19.080 No, I'm just saying.

03:20:19.560 He said, Charlie, what do you think of Yair?

03:20:21.300 Yair's great.

03:20:21.860 I text with Yair all the time.

03:20:24.200 He's been to our headquarters here.

03:20:25.640 Be more specific if you want Bibi or Yair.

03:20:27.980 He's got a pretty strong meme game.

03:20:29.220 This one says, God bless the USA.

03:20:31.340 Thank you for opening our eyes, Charlie.

03:20:32.760 I'm so proud to be the first one in our family to have not ruined my record by ever being a

03:20:36.900 registered Democrat.

03:20:38.000 God bless America.

03:20:39.840 God bless the USA.

03:20:40.700 Isn't it crazy that it just really feels like there's one party that's proud to be American,

03:20:44.980 that loves the flag, loves the nation, defends our military, supports our troops, border

03:20:49.460 patrol, you know, our sovereignty.

03:20:51.960 And there's a whole other part of the country that apparently thinks these things are passive.

03:20:54.960 Chris says, posse comitatus, if they roll border patrol in the DoD, they cannot, under posse

03:21:02.480 comitatus, enforce civil law, but they can repel invasions.

03:21:06.540 So you declare an invasion, the DoD can fire on demand, do whatever you want.

03:21:11.540 But the entire point of a national army is defending the nation.

03:21:15.960 Unless you're actually being invaded.

03:21:18.000 It's really simple.

03:21:18.280 All right.

03:21:19.900 So this, these simple, like it's, you get these weird, like quasi libertarian, I call

03:21:25.980 them conservatarian arguments from phrases that used to get said on talk radio in like

03:21:32.080 the 2010s or even earlier than that.

03:21:34.780 And it's like, guys, that's just not true.

03:21:38.260 Actual active duty army and Marines were used in LA riots in 1992.

03:21:44.480 I mean, we've used the military for things all the time.

03:21:48.600 Okay.

03:21:48.900 This idea that, oh, you can't do it.

03:21:50.560 You can't do it.

03:21:51.120 It's, it's, it's, it's just not historically correct.

03:21:53.540 So much of that.

03:21:54.560 Let's go here to David Axelrod, who's probably trying to speak truth into the Democrat party.

03:22:00.380 He'll be ignored.

03:22:01.060 Let's play call 150.

03:22:03.040 So there's, it's one thing to mine our differences.

03:22:06.320 It's another thing to try and heal our differences.

03:22:08.880 And that is, you know, that, that's the difference between real leadership and political expedience.

03:22:16.180 Would it have been healing to stand for Mark Fogle?

03:22:18.280 Might have been.

03:22:19.120 No, I agree.

03:22:19.960 Look, you know, you are absolutely right.

03:22:22.300 DJ Johnson.

03:22:22.920 I will do what you will not.

03:22:24.360 I will say, I thought Democrat, I thought that was just, I think there were times when

03:22:27.980 they should have risen.

03:22:28.640 I think what Al Green did was despicable.

03:22:32.460 Despicable.

03:22:33.820 Despicable.

03:22:34.600 Uh, 150, 151.

03:22:36.160 This dialogue continues.

03:22:37.900 And at some point you can, you got to stop blaming Joe Biden and you're going to be accountable.

03:22:42.800 And, uh, you know, he must've met Biden a dozen times in this speech.

03:22:47.820 I mean, the X, I love you.

03:22:50.400 You guys were blaming George W. Bush in year eight.

03:22:53.040 I'm a president.

03:22:54.060 But, you know, something, Scott, we learned something from that.

03:22:56.280 We learned something from that.

03:22:57.780 He's been in office for 40-something days.

03:22:59.900 I am hearing a lot of cope.

03:23:01.380 These social issues, you know why he talks about them?

03:23:03.360 He's good.

03:23:04.020 Because they work.

03:23:05.340 They're like 80-20 issues.

03:23:06.880 And he's on the right side of them.

03:23:08.320 And Democrats are on the wrong side of them.

03:23:10.480 It worked in the campaign.

03:23:11.800 And nobody, oh, he's not talking about the right things.

03:23:14.080 It worked in the inaugural.

03:23:15.260 It's working in the executive orders.

03:23:16.800 It's why he put it in the speech tonight.

03:23:18.720 And on immigration, you're exactly right.

03:23:20.640 It's his number one achievement so far.

03:23:22.340 The borders effectively closed.

03:23:23.580 The line of the night was they kept saying we need new legislation to secure the border.

03:23:28.180 But it turns out all we really needed was a new president.

03:23:30.640 Without question, in my mind, top scoring.

03:23:32.720 I just have to say, I feel like he's got to stay put.

03:23:35.760 We are here at midnight 7 Eastern.

03:23:38.360 So we're getting a little bit late.

03:23:40.720 Tyler, you have 30 seconds.

03:23:42.680 What is this poster behind me?

03:23:44.340 I'll show you again, that says travel to Wisconsin and chase 100 ballots.

03:23:49.240 What is that?

03:23:50.160 Charlie, the Turning Point Action team is on the ground.

03:23:53.040 We have dozens and dozens and dozens of full-time staff that we've kept there.

03:23:57.680 We have the largest field presence, the permanent field presence.

03:24:00.580 We have an office in Waukesha, which is the epicenter for the Supreme Court races coming up.

03:24:06.440 So why does that matter?

03:24:07.560 Supreme Court, what does that matter to a president from Tennessee?

03:24:11.180 Tell us why.

03:24:11.640 The Supreme Court hangs in the balance of Wisconsin.

03:24:13.500 And if the Democrats take control of it, it's a partisan election.

03:24:18.360 The Democrats take control.

03:24:19.700 They can do one major thing.

03:24:21.120 They can redistrict and cost us the House.

03:24:23.680 They can also make it impossible to win Wisconsin or really, really difficult to win Wisconsin if they get control of this.

03:24:31.960 So we need everybody to come out.

03:24:33.560 We've got hotel rooms that are available by the great gift from our donors.

03:24:40.600 Yep.

03:24:40.840 At Turning Point Action.

03:24:41.700 Turning Point Action.

03:24:42.400 We're stepping up.

03:24:42.420 We're investing almost a million bucks, right?

03:24:44.920 Yeah.

03:24:45.180 Yeah.

03:24:45.620 Yeah.

03:24:45.940 Yeah.

03:24:46.120 I think a lot more than that when you consider all the full-time staff millions.

03:24:49.760 That's right.

03:24:50.040 Probably, yeah, a couple million bucks.

03:24:51.140 Which we don't have to do, by the way.

03:24:53.240 And we're bringing people in.

03:24:55.200 And so we need thousands of people.

03:24:57.240 Right now we are at just broke 1,000 people coming in.

03:25:00.940 We need more than that.

03:25:01.880 The left is paying people to vote.

03:25:04.460 They're paying people to get out the vote.

03:25:06.180 So they're giving people 250 bucks a pop.

03:25:09.120 We are providing hotel rooms.

03:25:10.580 Come.

03:25:11.000 If you're in the Chicagoland area, drive up.

03:25:13.440 It's a quick drive.

03:25:14.340 Come help out for a day.

03:25:15.880 You can go to tpaction.com slash 100 to sign up.

03:25:19.780 That's our Commit 100 program, which is just committing to chase just 100 votes.

03:25:24.180 So that means we give you a list of 100 people to chase.

03:25:27.360 And then we just need you to go talk to them, remind them to vote, and then help them walk

03:25:32.860 their ballot to their mailbox in some cases, or go vote early.

03:25:36.260 Love it.

03:25:37.100 Let's also check that out at tpaction.com slash 100.

03:25:40.280 Let's go to a couple.

03:25:41.220 The line of the night, which I thought was beautifully crafted and wonderfully delivered.

03:25:47.880 Play cut 154.

03:25:51.320 The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation.

03:25:57.420 We must have legislation to secure the border.

03:26:00.460 But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.

03:26:05.100 Good job.

03:26:11.220 And I think that's so important because people like James Lankford and people like, you know,

03:26:21.300 I'm not going to let him go for this one.

03:26:23.020 No, no.

03:26:23.300 I'm telling you, he's done.

03:26:24.420 He is gone.

03:26:25.300 And all these Democrats that were like, you need this ridiculous.

03:26:28.700 Now, I want you to think about if we would have lived in James Lankford's world.

03:26:32.940 Because people might say I'm being unfair.

03:26:34.680 Let's see if he got his way.

03:26:35.980 Do you know that Trump would not be able to close the border right now?

03:26:38.580 It would have handcuffed Trump's ability.

03:26:43.000 It would have robbed Trump's term of the ability to close the border.

03:26:47.340 That was James Lankford's bipartisan border bill.

03:26:50.320 But if we pass that, Charlie, the Democrats would not call us racist ever again.

03:26:53.620 No, exactly.

03:26:54.700 And I just hope all of you guys in Oklahoma know, James Lankford, you're done.

03:26:58.360 We're not going to let you run for dog catcher, for water reclamation district,

03:27:01.920 for mosquito abatement director, U.S. senator or governor.

03:27:04.700 Is that an office?

03:27:05.920 Oh, I'm sure there is.

03:27:07.380 Hey, it's Oklahoma.

03:27:09.400 You've got 50-50 Native American reservations.

03:27:11.680 I've got all sorts of different jobs there.

03:27:13.780 You know half the state of Oklahoma is a Native American reservation.

03:27:15.820 Governor Stitt should become a senator.

03:27:16.440 He's phenomenal.

03:27:17.480 Governor Stitt should be the next senator.

03:27:18.540 He's great.

03:27:19.460 No, Lankford's done.

03:27:20.320 And he's not up until 2028.

03:27:21.600 But, well, I've got my eyes right on you.

03:27:23.220 You're at the top of the list.

03:27:24.480 But the reason being is because he went out there and brokered this deal, and he completely

03:27:30.260 gave the Democrats this talking point, saying, we have to do this bipartisan border deal.

03:27:35.200 And, by the way, it was never necessary.

03:27:36.960 And I think we would have won by even more if it wasn't for Lankford.

03:27:40.120 Yes.

03:27:40.260 Like, that actually persuaded some people in the middle, gave them a chance of a talking point,

03:27:43.820 gave them some over-the-top stuff.

03:27:45.120 The Democrats just kept saying it over and over again.

03:27:48.220 And on campus, I would get that question a lot.

03:27:50.420 And I was like, okay, Lankford, I remember you.

03:27:51.980 And none of it was necessary.

03:27:53.740 We didn't need a bipartisan border bill.

03:27:55.920 You needed a president.

03:27:56.900 And I don't—Blake, I want you to just riff on this for a second.

03:28:00.160 We're running a little out of time here.

03:28:01.600 But how profoundly our border is closed is pretty amazing right now.

03:28:05.060 I mean, it's effectively sealed.

03:28:06.980 It really is that all you had to do was make it so if you show up at the border, you will not get in.

03:28:13.220 Magical solution.

03:28:14.700 If you show up and won't get in, they'll stop coming.

03:28:17.060 You don't need an app for that?

03:28:17.880 Like, people are just—they're so rock stupid.

03:28:20.540 They're just like, they'll show up and then they'll all die.

03:28:24.120 No, they won't show up if they won't get in.

03:28:26.120 That's how it works.

03:28:27.660 And that would apply to everything.

03:28:29.260 Like, all those boats in the Caribbean—or not the Caribbean, in the Mediterranean,

03:28:32.240 they would stop if all you did was stop the boat, drop them off back in Libya where they started.

03:28:36.800 If you did that every time, no more boats in the Mediterranean.

03:28:39.400 Wait, you don't need an app for that?

03:28:40.880 You don't need an app.

03:28:41.880 You don't need a million programs.

03:28:44.480 But just remember all the nonsense in that James Langford bill.

03:28:48.840 It said that 4,999 people could cross a day.

03:28:52.660 That was literally in the bill.

03:28:54.180 No, but remember, the bill said, we can actually just turn it off when it gets over 5,000.

03:28:58.240 That's right.

03:28:58.820 So we admit that we can just turn it off.

03:29:00.980 So 4,999.

03:29:01.360 It locked in, like, the record high before Biden as, like, the normal amount of people that just led into America.

03:29:07.820 The baseline was 4,999.

03:29:09.800 We negotiated.

03:29:10.760 We were doing some hard negotiations.

03:29:12.380 You are a worthless, gutless wonder, James Langford.

03:29:14.800 This is why we got such bad deals, because our leaders took absolute garbage deals and said,

03:29:20.680 hey, this is somehow good.

03:29:22.440 We've done our job.

03:29:23.760 And Trump, to his great credit, is now demonstrating you didn't need any of that stuff.

03:29:27.320 The border's completely secure.

03:29:28.780 And not only is it one of his greatest accomplishments, and again, Dems on campus,

03:29:33.120 they go stone-cold silent when I say that the border's completely sealed,

03:29:36.540 because they can't even process.

03:29:37.820 Well, here's the numbers.

03:29:39.440 At its peak, we almost had 400,000 people come in a month.

03:29:44.960 Last month, we had just about 8,000, which was 277 per day.

03:29:50.900 We went from 15,000 a day at one point with Biden, and it fluctuated.

03:29:54.720 But let's say 15,000 at its peak to 277 a day, and none of them got in.

03:30:01.980 And I just want to reiterate, like, the Democrats wanted the open border.

03:30:09.220 Yeah.

03:30:09.700 Wanted the open border.

03:30:10.640 You can't do that without...

03:30:12.060 It was an intentional invasion.

03:30:13.720 It was architected by the Democrats in order to change the political makeup of this country,

03:30:21.060 the demographic makeup of this country, the cultural makeup of this country.

03:30:24.940 It was an absolute designed disaster and a humanitarian catastrophe that could have been avoided.

03:30:31.460 Any other super chats we have to get to?

03:30:33.100 Not right now.

03:30:33.880 Okay.

03:30:34.260 Just a reminder, guys, if you want any of the stuff we're wearing, dough shirt or hat,

03:30:40.400 That is charliekirkstore.com.

03:30:43.240 Secondly, if you guys want to get in the sweepstakes to win this stuff,

03:30:50.940 Ten winners are chosen.

03:30:52.880 And let's go around the horn one more time.

03:30:54.720 Final thoughts, Tyler.

03:30:56.120 Yeah.

03:30:56.600 I'm going to say this is I was so pleased not to have to look at Nancy Pelosi's face behind Donald Trump that entire time.

03:31:03.420 Seeing J.D. Vance was not the greatest thing.

03:31:04.840 Look, and I was thinking about this, Charlie, and you probably agree.

03:31:06.900 This is something that you think about is think about how many more votes and more favorability we get by not having Nancy Pelosi behind him.

03:31:15.960 I just like people like people just respond more positively by not watching that, not giving them an upstaging moment, not having to like look at that.

03:31:24.920 I was distracted the whole time looking at her nasty face the entire time last time.

03:31:29.600 I think that's bad.

03:31:30.380 Don't look at the pictures when she was doing the walk in Italy, okay?

03:31:33.860 And again, you've got like neighborhood Ned Flanders, you know, speaker Ned Flanders.

03:31:38.880 You've got J.D. Vance, the millennial child boy wonder up there.

03:31:44.000 It's like such a beautiful thing.

03:31:45.700 You don't understand it.

03:31:46.260 Imagine if we had Tim Walls behind.

03:31:48.620 There's the contrast.

03:31:49.640 We've come a long way, folks.

03:31:50.480 Look at that.

03:31:51.020 Imagine if we had Tim Walls in Kamala's seat there, like looking all bug-eyed.

03:31:57.680 America having gone through.

03:31:59.300 America passed right over Gen X.

03:32:00.820 We just went from that to that so abruptly, and you couldn't have a greater comparison tool that exists in American politics, maybe in history.

03:32:13.920 I agree.

03:32:14.940 Jack, final thoughts?

03:32:17.060 Yeah, look, I really want to come back to the way the Democrats acted tonight because I talk about this a lot.

03:32:23.180 I talk about how the importance of to the meta-normie narrative out there because people for a long time on the conservative right, these sort of old cons, would think that it's about beating the Democrats in there, winning the argument, winning the debate or something like that, when it's really about winning over normies, winning over normies to your side.

03:32:42.780 And the person who wins over the normies wins the election.

03:32:44.860 President Trump showed how to do that resoundingly in 2023 with him at the helm of this incredible coalition that he put together.

03:32:50.780 And what the problem is with that is the normies are only paying attention at certain times.

03:32:56.280 They pay attention to the debates.

03:32:58.300 That's why they're so important.

03:32:59.360 That's why Joe Biden was yanked after his first debate and someone tried to kill President Trump on national television.

03:33:05.720 It's also why Kamala Harris couldn't really survive her debate.

03:33:09.160 Tim Walz flamed out in debates, whereas J.D. Vance became a national figure in his debate, even though he was a national figure in his own right.

03:33:15.600 The State of the Union addresses, and this was a State of the Union address, again, to the normie audience.

03:33:21.000 In that context, this was a State of the Union address.

03:33:23.940 It had the theatrics.

03:33:24.760 It had the pomp and circumstance.

03:33:25.940 It had that sort of head of state appeal to it, sort of the dual-headed role of the presidency being head of state and head of government.

03:33:34.180 And so the way the Democrats acted, completely breaching decorum, completely laughing, completely, and by the way, not standing up and applauding for a child with brain cancer, I mean, these are politically devastating decisions.

03:33:50.360 And make no mistake, they are decisions, and you know that whatever the cooler heads that there are in the Democrat establishment, Charlie, you may have spoken to one of them earlier today.

03:34:02.720 We'll find out on that later.

03:34:05.640 You'll let me know how I did.

03:34:07.980 Yeah, well, you'll know that they've got to be cringing because they realize just how badly received this is going to be by the American people.

03:34:15.320 Yeah, I mean, I don't want to speak for, you know, Gavin or any of these guys, but if any of them want to try to win an election in the future, what the Democrats did tonight was so self-defeating.

03:34:27.540 It's so just, you know, doubling and tripling down on, like, minoritarian nonsense.

03:34:34.100 Just petty.

03:34:35.340 Andrew, final thoughts.

03:34:36.820 Throw up 155.

03:34:37.960 This is my final thought.

03:34:38.880 Look at this bar graph.

03:34:40.240 President Trump's speech was the longest ever first addressed to Congress by, like, a lot.

03:34:48.480 And this reminded me of something Blake said at the beginning, so hat tip Blake, that he's only been in office for about 40 days, and yet the mountain of accomplishments is so large and so sweeping and so dramatic.

03:35:01.980 And the creativity and the upheaval, and so much has changed so quickly that he filled an hour and 40 minutes of content, and I didn't even realize it was that long.

03:35:14.880 I was sitting there.

03:35:15.900 We were looking and analyzing in real time.

03:35:17.940 It did not feel like it dragged on.

03:35:19.580 It didn't feel like any of that because there is so much to talk about.

03:35:23.260 And I think we can definitively say that there has never been a more productive or effective or important and impactful first 40 days of a presidency in all of history.

03:35:34.860 I think that is safe to say.

03:35:37.260 Now, you could look at maybe Truman wrapping up World War II or something, but outside of wartime, there is nothing that I think compares in American history.

03:35:45.880 And, Blake, maybe you'll disagree with me, but this is so sweeping and radical in so many good ways that it's an hour and 40 minutes, and he deserved every ounce of that time.

03:35:56.540 Blake, final thoughts?

03:35:57.760 Just, I would say, we should look ahead.

03:36:00.460 He'll have to deliver his first real State of the Union in a year.

03:36:04.460 And if things work out, think about what he'll be able to talk about in a year.

03:36:08.960 If he's able to say, we've had a year of secured border now.

03:36:12.560 Peace.

03:36:12.840 If we now have the peace deal in Ukraine, peace deal in the Middle East, we'll see on the economy.

03:36:18.520 We will have tax cuts.

03:36:19.740 We'll have D-reg, and we know we have AI something, and we have energy.

03:36:24.500 So the economy—

03:36:25.300 He has a potential to have a monumental first State of the Union.

03:36:28.820 Yeah, the only reason, the question mark in the economy, we don't know how bad it was what we've inherited.

03:36:33.760 We've heard some things.

03:36:35.180 Yeah, that there's going to be some—again, we could get bailed out by certain stuff.

03:36:39.280 And by growth, yes.

03:37:13.720 We've all been enjoying that very much.

03:37:15.700 We're having a great time over there.

03:37:16.220 Nationally syndicated radio host.

03:37:17.980 And huge, huge show coming up tomorrow.

03:37:22.280 Amen.

03:37:22.600 Very good, guys.

03:37:24.420 Appreciate it very much.

03:37:26.260 And we will be back tomorrow at 12 Eastern.

03:37:29.880 We have Ben Shapiro on the program tomorrow.

03:37:32.400 For a full hour.

03:37:32.640 How about why we should pardon Derek Chauvin?

03:37:35.600 Now, Blake, a year ago, if I told you Ben Shapiro was going to be on my show advocating for the pardon of Derek Chauvin.

03:37:44.260 Yeah.

03:37:44.960 We've come a long way.

03:37:46.620 You would say, what brand of mushrooms and how often are you taking them?

03:37:50.420 But hold on.

03:37:51.020 I just want to say.

03:37:51.720 And it's not a knock against Ben.

03:37:52.760 No, no, no.

03:37:53.040 I'm just saying.

03:37:53.380 It's just.

03:37:54.100 Just to give a little insight.

03:37:55.740 Break the fourth wall here.

03:37:58.720 To my everlasting shame, I wasn't convinced that this was a good idea.

03:38:02.280 Charlie and Blake were like, we need to pardon Derek Chauvin.

03:38:05.360 You've been doing it for a year.

03:38:06.600 How forceful have I been on the pardon thing?

03:38:07.760 Oh, you've been huge, actually.

03:38:08.760 No, I never went.

03:38:09.500 No, no, no.

03:38:09.800 I blame you completely for this.

03:38:10.720 No, you should blame me.

03:38:11.680 I, I, I, it's my fault, but I own this one.

03:38:14.960 But Ben, to his credit, is coming out hard from a, and he's a lawyer, and he's very smart,

03:38:19.180 and he's very analytical, and he is.

03:38:21.880 But you've wanted to do this for a year.

03:38:23.660 Of course, because it was a Moscow show trial.

03:38:25.660 The whole thing's insane.

03:38:26.160 No, he got railroaded.

03:38:27.060 It's terrible.

03:38:28.020 But, you know, Blake, you pushed it hard.

03:38:30.580 Charlie, you pushed it.

03:38:31.180 I just want the world to know.

03:38:32.360 The reason, you know, it probably wasn't more is because I was the, like, wet blanket in the

03:38:36.140 room going, like, I don't know if we're there yet, but my bad.

03:38:39.120 We should give credit real quick.

03:38:40.360 Liz Collin did her work with Alpha News.

03:38:42.960 And we've been covering it.

03:38:44.380 We've been getting closer and closer.

03:38:45.900 No, which I fully supported.

03:38:47.080 It was great to get her reporting on it.

03:38:48.780 I mean, there's a lot there to unpack, so don't miss that.

03:38:51.320 Hour two tomorrow of the show is going to be phenomenal.

03:38:54.460 We've got Jim Banks as well.
