The Charlie Kirk Show - 35 “Republicans” Cave to Pelosi’s Sham “Insurrection Commission”

00:00:00.000 Hey, everybody.

00:00:00.000 Nancy Pelosi's commission was supported by 35 Republicans.

00:00:05.000 We name them all.

00:00:06.000 Share this podcast with your friends so they know who is deciding to side with Nancy Pelosi to give her a new special counsel.

00:00:13.000 We also talk about school board meetings and something happening in Scottsdale, Arizona.

00:00:17.000 Freedom at charliekirk.com is our email.

00:00:20.000 And if you want to support us, like Carl from Montana or Ginny from Missouri, thank you guys, by the way.

00:00:37.000 CharlieKirk.com/slash support.

00:00:39.000 Buckle up, everybody.

00:00:40.000 Here we go.

00:00:41.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:43.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:00:45.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:48.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:52.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:53.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:54.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:00:55.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:01:01.000 Turning point USA.

00:01:02.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:11.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:14.000 So I want to get through a very important piece of news that happened.

00:01:20.000 The Pelosi Commission.

00:01:22.000 So for the last couple months, Nancy Pelosi, I think, has been intentionally slow walking this.

00:01:28.000 I think that Nancy Pelosi has been intentionally dragging her feet for months because Nancy Pelosi wanted a commission to look into January 6th, despite the fact that every single department of law enforcement right now is looking into it. 0.51

00:01:43.000 She wanted this to be a later authorized commission so it would go into the election year of 2022 and hurt Republicans.

00:01:50.000 So she intentionally did not want this to be an overnight thing.

00:01:52.000 So she pretended as if she was negotiating with Republicans on this commission.

00:01:58.000 And the more information that we get about January 6th, the more it looks like an interruption, not an insurrection.

00:02:04.000 And I'm not supporting the smashing of windows or the assaulting of police officers.

00:02:08.000 You lay your hand on a police officer, you should go to prison for a very long time.

00:02:12.000 I'm not minimizing that.

00:02:14.000 At the same time, who killed Ashley Babbitt?

00:02:18.000 And why were there no charges against the person that fired a shot at Ashley Babbitt, who was unarmed?

00:02:24.000 I thought that was the big mantra of BLM Incorporated.

00:02:29.000 So for months now, Republicans have been negotiating with Nancy Pelosi.

00:02:35.000 When I say Republicans, I mean someone who is not even a Republican, someone who voted for impeachment.

00:02:43.000 And so the commission is supposed to be like a 9-11-style commission to look into the January 6th incident.

00:02:53.000 But we all know how these things happen.

00:02:55.000 This would be a Mueller-style council that would be a roaming prosecutor with no limitations to go after anyone on the center right if they were even commenting or remotely involved on anything that happened on January the 6th.

00:03:10.000 Any Republican that voted for this has a very low IQ and no courage whatsoever.

00:03:17.000 After what we saw the Democrats do, after what we have seen the Democrats do with every single apparatus of power at their disposal, that we're now supposed to believe that after how the Democrats and the activist media handled the 2016 election, the Russian collusion hoax with the entire Mueller investigation, which was a total lie, the Covington smear, Kavanaugh, the Ukraine, the second impeachment, the Chinese coronavirus.

00:03:48.000 And this is Sean Davis from the Federalist who mentioned many of this.

00:03:50.000 We're now supposed to believe that they're going to act perfectly.

00:03:53.000 Of course not.

00:03:54.000 They want this as a political prosecutor to go after Trump supporters and Trump himself.

00:04:05.000 It's so obvious what they want to do.

00:04:07.000 And so, sure, we just have to take a close pause timeout.

00:04:09.000 Why is this commission necessary?

00:04:12.000 We got Department of Justice on this.

00:04:14.000 We got the FBI on this.

00:04:15.000 We got the Department of Homeland Security.

00:04:17.000 We got Capitol Police doing their own internal review.

00:04:21.000 And before a commission even needs to be formed, I would love an answer to a very simple question: who put the pipe bombs at the RNC and the DNC?

00:04:29.000 How have we not been able to find that out?

00:04:32.000 I have another very simple question.

00:04:34.000 Why was it that the FBI had an internal memo saying they knew something was going to happen, yet they did nothing?

00:04:44.000 And so these are questions that the commission, of course, will not touch.

00:04:47.000 Instead, it is going to be nothing more than a Mueller investigation 2.0.

00:04:54.000 Roaming, no discretion.

00:04:56.000 Now, I want to give some kudos to a man that we have a mixed relationship with here on the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:05:05.000 But we say it true, and then we say it.

00:05:07.000 We always say it true, but sometimes the truth hurts a little bit.

00:05:10.000 I want to say, good job, Mitch McConnell.

00:05:13.000 I want to say, Mitch McConnell, you coming out against this commission sent a very clear signal to Senate Republicans that this thing was almost dead on arrival.

00:05:21.000 So thank you, Mitch McConnell.

00:05:23.000 That was the right thing for you to do.

00:05:25.000 It was, I think Mitch McConnell just wants to get back into power, and he's exactly right.

00:05:30.000 If this thing gets authorized, it's going to threaten him from actually getting back into power.

00:05:34.000 And so this is not about getting to the bottom of anything.

00:05:37.000 This is a Nancy Pelosi commission.

00:05:39.000 That's what this is.

00:05:40.000 Did this pass narrowly in the United States House?

00:05:45.000 No. 0.99

00:05:46.000 35 Republicans voted to authorize Nancy Pelosi's special prosecutor.

00:05:53.000 35 Republicans.

00:05:56.000 We're going to name them all.

00:05:58.000 Every single one of them.

00:06:01.000 Who they think they represent, what party they think they're part of, I don't know.

00:06:07.000 Don Bacon from Nebraska.

00:06:09.000 I know him.

00:06:10.000 I'm very disappointed to hear this.

00:06:12.000 He's a good man.

00:06:12.000 He served his country.

00:06:13.000 He's a veteran.

00:06:15.000 I don't know what he's doing here.

00:06:19.000 Congressman at your Congresswoman or Congressman Bence from Oregon.

00:06:23.000 Beiss from Oklahoma.

00:06:25.000 Liz Cheney from Wyoming.

00:06:27.000 Shocked.

00:06:29.000 Curtis from Utah.

00:06:30.000 Rodney Davis from Illinois.

00:06:32.000 I know him too. 0.96

00:06:32.000 He's a waste of rations. 0.96

00:06:35.000 Fitzpatrick from Pennsylvania. 0.94

00:06:37.000 Fortinberry from Nebraska.

00:06:41.000 Garbarino from New York.

00:06:42.000 Jimenez from Florida.

00:06:44.000 Gonzalez from Texas.

00:06:46.000 Gonzalez from Ohio.

00:06:48.000 Guest from Mississippi.

00:06:49.000 Herrera Butler from Washington. 0.74

00:06:52.000 Awful. 1.00

00:06:53.000 Hill from Arkansas. 0.57

00:06:55.000 Hollinsworth from Indiana.

00:06:57.000 Jacobs from New York.

00:06:59.000 Johnson from South Dakota.

00:07:01.000 I think his name's Dusty Johnson.

00:07:03.000 This one I simply cannot understand.

00:07:07.000 This one is, you represent the whole state of South Dakota, and you're trying to tell me that your constituents of South Dakota are clamoring for you to authorize Nancy Pelosi to have a special prosecutor right now when we already have every level of law enforcement looking into this.

00:07:22.000 Let me just say this again.

00:07:25.000 The FBI, the DOJ, this is being investigated, okay?

00:07:29.000 This commission would be nothing more than a multi-thousand-page report of how awful conservatives are and how white supremacy is the biggest threat ever, and we need more surveillance justification against them.

00:07:39.000 Joyce from Ohio, Catco from New York, who is the bill's co-sponsor.

00:07:44.000 Adam Kinzinger from Illinois.

00:07:46.000 Shocking.

00:07:48.000 McKinley from West Virginia.

00:07:49.000 Is it Dusty or Rusty?

00:07:51.000 Dusty?

00:07:52.000 Yeah.

00:07:54.000 Dusty.

00:07:55.000 What a waste of time that guy is.

00:07:58.000 Peter Meyer from Michigan.

00:08:00.000 Let me tell you what.

00:08:00.000 Peter Meyer is one of my least favorite people on the planet.

00:08:05.000 Because this guy, we at Turning Point Action went and knocked on doors and he was all pro-Trump.

00:08:10.000 And one of his first things he does is to go to impeach Donald Trump.

00:08:13.000 And he has been terrible going on CNN, never missing an opportunity to betray the constituents of Western Michigan.

00:08:20.000 He lied.

00:08:21.000 Again, it'd be one thing if you run as a moderate, if you do the Susan Collins thing and you're like, hey, I'm really center right.

00:08:27.000 Again, I actually respect Susan Collins.

00:08:28.000 Susan Collins has come out against this. 0.69

00:08:31.000 Susan Collins has come out against this commission.

00:08:34.000 I have a very clear rule in politics.

00:08:36.000 If you're going to be a moderate Republican, be very clear you're a moderate Republican and you're going to say, hey, I'm going to vote with you on some things and not on other things.

00:08:43.000 I love honesty.

00:08:44.000 I prefer clarity over agreement.

00:08:48.000 Let me say that again.

00:08:49.000 This is a pragerism.

00:08:50.000 I prefer clarity over agreement. 0.62

00:08:53.000 These guys, they're snakes in the grass. 0.76

00:08:56.000 Oh, yeah, we love Donald Trump. 0.93

00:08:58.000 Elect me.

00:08:58.000 I'm Peter Meyer.

00:08:59.000 Meanwhile, then he goes and impeaches Donald Trump.

00:09:02.000 And then he goes on television saying that he wants a special commission to find out what happened.

00:09:08.000 What are the federal law enforcement agencies doing exactly?

00:09:13.000 And you want to go give Nancy Pelosi another Bob Mueller.

00:09:16.000 And this one will actually know what's happening, unlike Bob Mueller, who was like Joe Biden told a space cadet when he was put in front of Congress.

00:09:23.000 Moore from Utah, Newhouse from Washington, Reed from New York, Rice from South Carolina.

00:09:31.000 Republicans who decided they want to authorize the Pelosi Commission. 0.56

00:09:34.000 Marionette Miller Meeks won by six votes in Iowa from turning point action. 0.98

00:09:39.000 We also went up and knocked on doors for her. 0.98

00:09:42.000 We didn't know we'd be helping a Democrat. 1.00

00:09:47.000 Maria Elvira-Salazar from Florida, I know her. 1.00

00:09:51.000 What a disappointment that is. 0.88

00:09:53.000 Simpson, Republican from Idaho.

00:09:55.000 Smith from New Jersey, Taylor from Texas, Upton from Michigan, Volato, whatever, from California, and Womack from Arkansas.

00:10:08.000 And so as we look at this new conservative movement, we got to ask ourselves the question, what is the reason that these Republicans are going out of their way to try and give power to a roaming prosecutor in Mueller 2.0?

00:10:27.000 Well, this is Representative Peter Meyer's justification, cut 99.

00:10:32.000 We need accountability.

00:10:33.000 We need an open, transparent investigation that will yield a public document that the people can reference.

00:10:40.000 I mean, right now, we still have more questions than answers on what occurred on January 6th, what led up to that.

00:10:46.000 And really, it's essential we don't move past this without that sense of accountability.

00:10:52.000 If we just try to whitewash, if we try to forget what happened that day, we're guaranteed to see a repeat and additional political violence.

00:10:59.000 So he says that we need a report that everyone can reference.

00:11:04.000 So explain to me why the Department of Justice can't do that report.

00:11:09.000 Now, I don't necessarily say I trust that, but I'm just saying outside of this political style commission that is going to be formed.

00:11:17.000 Representative Andy Biggs spoke out against the commission, cut 97.

00:11:22.000 So even though there's literally been law enforcement investigation that has spanned the country and hundreds of people have been arrested, the Democrats want to have this commission so they can give unbridled power to agencies of this government, including agencies such as the IRS, to investigate and go after people who they suspect of participating in coming into the Capitol on January 6th.

00:11:50.000 So you have the Democrats in this bill that would empower the entire federal bureaucracy to go after anyone that they might seem to be a political dissident.

00:12:02.000 We talked about on this program before the Knight of the Long Knives about how they want to use the apparatus of law enforcement to go after people that they disagree with on the other side to destroy the other political party.

00:12:16.000 And they think that through this bill they can do that.

00:12:19.000 The only problem is the filibuster, of course, in the Senate.

00:12:21.000 And Mitch McConnell, to his great credit, and Susan Collins, to her credit, have come out against this.

00:12:28.000 But there's 35 Republicans that voted for it.

00:12:31.000 35 Republicans.

00:12:35.000 Bacon, Bence, Beis, Cheney, Curtis, Davis, Fitzpatrick, Fortinberry, Garbino, Jimenez, Gonzalez-Gonzalez, guest, Herrera Butler, Hill, Hollingsworth, Jacobs, Johnson, Joyce, Catko, Kinzinger, McKinley, Meyer, Miller, Meeks, Moore, Newhouse, Reed, Rice, Salazar, Simpson, Smith, Taylor, Upton, Volato, and Womack.

00:12:58.000 The reason is beyond me, except for the fact that they want to go on Jake Tapper's show and feel morally superior and virtue signal to the rest of the country.

00:13:10.000 They are playing directly into the power-grabbing hands of Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats.

00:13:18.000 And so maybe some of you live in some of those districts, and maybe you're going to be involved in primary campaigns.

00:13:23.000 Maybe some of you should do whatever you possibly can to make sure that this new conservative movement is not weighed down by the cronyism and the corruption and the lack of a moral compass that our current party has in too many different places.

00:13:46.000 Are you saving for retirement or just treading water?

00:13:49.000 Are you depending solely on stocks or mutuals instead of diversifying what you really need?

00:13:53.000 Do you know that it's easy to move out an old 401k into precious metals like gold?

00:13:58.000 And that's predicted to go up more than 2,500 an ounce soon.

00:14:02.000 This could be the answer for you.

00:14:03.000 So call the team at Noble Gold.

00:14:05.000 Do it this month, and they'll gift you a free 22-carrant, one-tenth of an ounce gold American Eagle Coin.

00:14:10.000 Just mention the promo code Kirk.

00:14:11.000 Visit noblegoldinvestments.com.

00:14:14.000 That's noblegoldinvestments.com.

00:14:19.000 There's more wisdom in this new kind of form of child activist than from most parents I have seen.

00:14:27.000 Most parents are either too agreeable or they don't understand the tyranny that is happening in real time.

00:14:36.000 This right here, this little girl, stood in front of the school board and she just let them have it over masks.

00:14:44.000 She has more wisdom, biblical wisdom, than almost any other person I have seen on this issue.

00:14:50.000 I think she's 10 years old, cut 94.

00:14:53.000 And I don't think barely anybody likes masks in schools.

00:14:57.000 Their children are suffocating.

00:15:00.000 You don't know what it feels like.

00:15:02.000 And just, it's non-assense.

00:15:04.000 Seriously.

00:15:06.000 Like, why would you do that?

00:15:07.000 Why in the world would you do that?

00:15:10.000 And God created us so we can be free people.

00:15:14.000 And we're not being free here.

00:15:17.000 All at public schools.

00:15:19.000 Okay?

00:15:20.000 So I would take the masks off if I were you.

00:15:24.000 And I'm not wearing a mask right now.

00:15:26.000 And I never will as much as I can.

00:15:29.000 She's fighting harder than most parents across the country.

00:15:32.000 If you are watching or listening to this, find your school board and show up.

00:15:37.000 It's that simple.

00:15:40.000 No more spectator conservatism.

00:15:42.000 We need you in the arena.

00:15:45.000 And I will be showing up to school boards all across the country fighting for this very thing.

00:15:52.000 And the other thing that we keep on talking about, of course, is critical race theory.

00:15:56.000 Now, if your child is being taught critical race theory or is being forced to wear a mask in school, show up and do something about it.

00:16:05.000 Cut 93, Kimberly Crenshaw on CNN, says that critical race theory just says let's pay attention to what has happened in our country and how what has happened in our countries continue to create different outcomes.

00:16:17.000 This is one of the big lies.

00:16:19.000 And we have Jason Riley coming on our program to talk about Thomas Sowell.

00:16:23.000 So make sure you check out the Charlie Kirk Show podcast where we're going to talk about discrimination versus disparities.

00:16:28.000 I'm going to talk about a little bit here.

00:16:30.000 Let's go to CUT 93.

00:16:31.000 Critical race theory just says let's pay attention to what has happened in this country and how what has happened in this country is continuing to create differential outcomes so we can become that country that we say we are.

00:16:46.000 So critical race theory is not anti-patriotic.

00:16:49.000 In fact, it is more patriotic than those who are opposed to it because we believe in the 13th and the 14th and the 15th Amendment.

00:16:57.000 This person's very confused as to what critical race theory is.

00:17:01.000 But they're saying that the Kimberly Crenshaw here is saying that so we could become the country that we say that we are, okay, then explain to me this.

00:17:12.000 Why does critical race theory care about race?

00:17:15.000 Is the focus on race an American value?

00:17:19.000 Of course not.

00:17:21.000 Focus on character is American value.

00:17:23.000 Critical race theory, very similar to Nathan Bedford Forrest or John C. Calhoun or Nicole Hannah Jones, and we'll get to her in just a second, believes that race matters.

00:17:34.000 We believe that race does not matter.

00:17:38.000 And so she says, we have to talk about how things that happened are affecting things that are happening. 0.96

00:17:44.000 Now, this sounds rather logical, doesn't it?

00:17:48.000 This sounds that widespread discrimination that did exist in our country must have resulted in current disparities, obviously.

00:17:56.000 Right?

00:17:57.000 Well, Thomas Sowell would say no.

00:17:59.000 Thomas Sowell wouldn't say when you see a certain data set that has a disparity, a mature scientific, mathematic, reasoned, or logical way to look at that is not to prescribe one input for that disparity.

00:18:15.000 So what if I told you there were 100 different inputs outside of discrimination that very well has played a role and a factor into blacks having a different income, wealth, or socioeconomic level in America, such as whether or not you're raised by a father?

00:18:35.000 Whether or not, how many words does a child hear at home?

00:18:40.000 Do you know that how many words a child hears at home is one of the top predictors of a child's IQ, ability to communicate, go to school, and not go to prison?

00:18:51.000 If a child hears 5,000 words or less a day, they're much more likely to end up into a broken school, not graduate or go to prison.

00:18:59.000 The more words a child hears at home, the more likely they are to succeed.

00:19:03.000 So if you have two parents at home, are you more or less likely to hear more words when you're a child?

00:19:10.000 Let me prove to you how sloppy this argument is.

00:19:15.000 Do you know that mountain towns and prairie towns tend to be poorer than river towns and coastal towns?

00:19:25.000 So for example, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and L.A., New York, and Boston tend to be wealthier than towns like Springfield, Missouri or Bismarck, North Dakota.

00:19:37.000 Is that because of racism?

00:19:39.000 Of course not.

00:19:40.000 Do you know that a town on a river or on a natural body of water like Chicago tends to be wealthier than a town completely land-trapped like Albuquerque, New Mexico?

00:19:54.000 Why?

00:19:55.000 Are we able to blame racism for the fact that land-trapped cities are poorer than river towns or coastal towns?

00:20:03.000 Of course not.

00:20:04.000 It could be explained basically through geography and how wealth is created.

00:20:09.000 If you are located at a port of entry, you are more likely to be wealthier.

00:20:15.000 Where commerce is done is where wealth is created.

00:20:18.000 And so if you are land-trapped like Albuquerque, New Mexico, you are then going to have to be a destination, not having to be a must-go-through thoroughfare for where shipping, commerce, travel happens to occur.

00:20:33.000 If you're coming from Korea and you want to do a business deal, are you going to go to Albuquerque, New Mexico, or are you going to go to Seattle?

00:20:39.000 Now, there's obviously outliers with this. 0.99

00:20:42.000 Dallas, Texas is a great outlier.

00:20:44.000 And Dallas, Texas, largely created thanks to oil and natural gas.

00:20:48.000 But Houston is a port city where a lot of the oil, natural gas flows through into our country.

00:20:52.000 Now, what am I getting at here?

00:20:55.000 Boston, New York, Philadelphia are all coastal towns.

00:20:59.000 Seattle, San Francisco, and LA are all coastal towns.

00:21:02.000 Those six towns are some of the wealthiest in America.

00:21:06.000 And then I could pick six rural towns.

00:21:08.000 Let's say Knoxville, Tennessee.

00:21:11.000 Let's say Des Moines, Iowa, where they are landlocked.

00:21:14.000 Is the reason they are poor only because of discrimination?

00:21:17.000 Of course not.

00:21:18.000 So maybe instead we should open up our eyes, Kimberly Crenshaw, and say that there are other inputs that might possibly contribute to the output of the black community having disparate or different outcomes. 0.78

00:21:32.000 How about culture?

00:21:34.000 How about the music that happens to be dominant in the black community? 0.76

00:21:39.000 Thomas Sowell wrote extensively about this, about how the music that young blacks happen to hear in urban culture glorify and glamorize a gangster lifestyle that glorifies and glamorizes, such as Cardi B, happens to platform and romanticize the idea of adulterous relationships. 0.61

00:22:04.000 That's not to say that all the music in a traditional suburban white community is perfect, but there tends to be a check and balance against that in that certain type of culture.

00:22:14.000 Thomas Soule talks about this at great length. 0.59

00:22:18.000 And by the way, just so we're clear, to kind of complete the point about the landlocked cities, the landlocked cities are typically whiter cities.

00:22:26.000 So if whiteness, Kimberly Crenshaw, was the number one predictor of whether or not a people were going to be wealthy, those landlocked cities tend to be poor.

00:22:41.000 So maybe race isn't the most important thing.

00:22:44.000 Maybe there's 50 other things that could contribute to it.

00:22:47.000 How about literacy rates?

00:22:48.000 How many books a child has to read or is forced to read before the age of five?

00:22:53.000 The type of vocabulary a child is exposed.

00:22:56.000 Whether or not a child is exposed to slang or carefully worded sentences.

00:23:01.000 Whether or not a child is exposed to harmonic, melody-driven music or aharmonic music driven more on noise like rap music is?

00:23:13.000 Not to say all rap music is that way, but I think that there's, I am going, this is a hill I will definitely die on, okay?

00:23:20.000 That Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach are infinitely better for a society than Jay-Z.

00:23:28.000 A society that is raised on the classics of the music that built Western civilization is going to want to pursue higher levels of truth than listening to Jay-Z or Drake.

00:23:43.000 Now, some of these things have, you could definitely ascribe to past discrimination.

00:23:48.000 Some of it.

00:23:49.000 Thomas Sowell even accepted part of that premise.

00:23:52.000 And by the way, Thomas Sowell is black.

00:23:54.000 I just got a note from one of my friends listening in Chicago. 0.88

00:23:57.000 He said, remind people that Thomas Sowell is black.

00:23:59.000 Because not that that matters, but it does give him a little bit more of credibility when it talks about this issue.

00:24:06.000 And he was raised, I think, in Harlem.

00:24:08.000 Was it Brooklyn?

00:24:09.000 I guess we'll find out from Jason Riley soon.

00:24:10.000 He's going to be on our podcast.

00:24:11.000 I think it was Harlem.

00:24:13.000 And made a great life of himself.

00:24:15.000 And the argument he would make is before the Civil Rights Act was passed in the 1940s and 50s, blacks saw a massive increase in wealth.

00:24:25.000 They saw a renaissance in household income.

00:24:29.000 Black families were staying together.

00:24:31.000 And Thomas Sowell basically said, look, I will give the 22% number to Nicole Hanna-Jones.

00:24:38.000 Now, what's the 22% number?

00:24:40.000 The 22% number is this idea that before the Civil Rights Act was passed, 22% of black families were raised by single mothers.

00:24:50.000 22%.

00:24:52.000 The Civil Rights Act passed, and now it's 77%. 0.57

00:24:56.000 So Nicole Hanna-Jones and Tahanisi Coates and Robin D'Angelo and all the people in the Intelligentsia are going to have to explain why as America got significantly less racist and America got more accepting, we elected a black president with a black attorney general.

00:25:10.000 We have black billionaires and we have black majority sports leagues.

00:25:14.000 Let me say that again.

00:25:15.000 We have black majority sports leagues. 0.53

00:25:17.000 What kind of racist country would have a black majority sports league?

00:25:20.000 It's called the National Basketball Association.

00:25:23.000 That all of a sudden, as America got less racist and more embracing of a multicultural, multiracial society, that black communities and black livelihoods went down, the answer is fatherlessness. 0.57

00:25:36.000 And how do you attribute that?

00:25:38.000 Bad social policy crafted by Lyndon Baines Johnson, including a culture that tended to embrace that.

00:25:45.000 So no, just because you have disparate outcomes does not mean you can solely blame discrimination on that.

00:25:50.000 In fact, it could be the opposite.

00:25:52.000 That is the mature way of looking at what we're living through.

00:25:58.000 In our fast-paced world, it's tough to make reading a priority.

00:26:01.000 At least it used to be.

00:26:02.000 At thinker.org, they summarize the key ideas from new and noteworthy nonfiction, giving you an access to an entire library of great books in bite-sized form.

00:26:10.000 Read or listen to hundreds of titles in a matter of minutes, from old classics like Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People to recent bestsellers like Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life.

00:26:20.000 I've used Thinker.

00:26:21.000 I use it almost every single day to digest big ideas quickly and easy to understand.

00:26:25.000 So if you want to challenge your preconceptions, learn something new every day, expand your horizons and become a better thinker, go to thinker.org.

00:26:32.000 That's T-H-I-N-K-R.org to start a free trial today.

00:26:35.000 Again, that's thinker.org.

00:26:39.000 I'm hearing rumblings about the Scottsdale School Board.

00:26:42.000 I read that story.

00:26:44.000 I'm going to show up.

00:26:45.000 I am actually a business.

00:26:47.000 I guess you could call it a business.

00:26:48.000 Attorney Point's nonprofit.

00:26:50.000 I employ people in the state of Arizona and I pay property tax in the city of Scottsdale.

00:26:56.000 I am showing up at the next Scottsdale School Board meeting because the way they treated those parents were terrible.

00:27:00.000 I will be there if it works with my schedule and I'm not on Mars or Neptune or Bismarck, North Dakota or Portland, Maine, wherever it is or whatever it is, I will be there to speak out against the forced child abuse of making children wear masks in Scottsdale, Arizona.

00:27:15.000 So if you're watching this or listening to this in Arizona, we're going to find out when the next one is.

00:27:18.000 So Producer Connor, maybe by the end of the show, you can find when the next one is because I want to get involved in this.

00:27:24.000 I want to get involved in this at the very fundamental level.

00:27:27.000 They actually have to let me in because some of these school boards, they're going to be like, oh, you can't go.

00:27:31.000 Like, no, I actually paid, I pay property tax in Scottsdale.

00:27:33.000 Thank you very much.

00:27:34.000 You work for me.

00:27:36.000 And everyone who lives in Scottsdale should feel the same.

00:27:38.000 And that's a big area with a lot of conservatives.

00:27:41.000 So I want to play some tape here.

00:27:43.000 There's a lot of different directions we can go in here and a lot of different things we can talk about.

00:27:49.000 But I want to go to Cut 74, which we can't forget.

00:27:53.000 And this is why we have to have Cut 74.

00:27:56.000 Camela.

00:27:57.000 You know, as we emerge from the pandemic, I believe that we are at the start of a new era.

00:28:04.000 I believe that we have a unique opportunity now to shape our nation's future, to transform how we live, how we work, and how we vote.

00:28:16.000 So I want to go through that again.

00:28:18.000 There's Kamala Harris saying that the Chinese coronavirus is an opportunity.

00:28:23.000 They look at this as a gateway to achieve things that they have always wanted to achieve.

00:28:30.000 Never let a crisis go to waste, as Ram Emmanuel on said.

00:28:34.000 And so this is something I want to explore with all of you, and I'd love to have you tell us about that.

00:28:42.000 Freedom at CharlieKirk.com.

00:28:45.000 Why shouldn't we as conservatives be unafraid to say the same?

00:28:52.000 Why shouldn't we as conservatives say, you know what?

00:28:54.000 The virus is an opportunity for us to have a homeschooling revolution in America.

00:28:59.000 Why not?

00:29:01.000 Why shouldn't we say that the virus is an opportunity to transform government schools the way we have them in America?

00:29:06.000 The virus has been an opportunity in the lockdowns as an opportunity to say that church will be essential.

00:29:12.000 Why not?

00:29:14.000 They're unafraid to say that the virus is going to try to be an opportunity to remake America in their image.

00:29:18.000 Well, we should be unafraid to say the same.

00:29:21.000 What do I have on June 22nd?

00:29:23.000 That's when the Scottsdale meeting is.

00:29:24.000 You see how easy that is, everybody?

00:29:25.000 We just look it up.

00:29:27.000 June 22nd at 3 p.m.

00:29:28.000 I probably have something.

00:29:30.000 But if I can move it, I will.

00:29:32.000 At 3 p.m., who puts meetings at 3 p.m.?

00:29:34.000 Answer.

00:29:34.000 Tyrants who don't want you to show up.

00:29:36.000 That's who puts meetings at 3 p.m.

00:29:38.000 What I have that day?

00:29:39.000 I think we can move that.

00:29:40.000 We'll be a little flexible with that.

00:29:43.000 Exactly.

00:29:44.000 They put this at 3 p.m.

00:29:45.000 They put it at 3 p.m. because they know you're working and they don't want working people who pay their property tax to show up.

00:29:52.000 So, Scottsdale, I'll tell you what.

00:29:54.000 June 22nd at 3 p.m., you're going to have to hear from me, a taxpayer, showing up and speaking.

00:30:03.000 Because I'm telling you, this school board thing is the front lines.

00:30:06.000 The school boards are where we are going to say no more.

00:30:10.000 And that's exactly what the founding fathers wanted.

00:30:12.000 Remember, we went through the different levels of how Aristotle viewed government, and the founding fathers directly derived that.

00:30:18.000 Starts with the individual, then the family, then the city, then the community, then the city, then the state, then the federal.

00:30:26.000 Well, the city is now impacting the family and the individual and your children.

00:30:32.000 So, June 22nd, if I can be there, I think we could play some, I think we can dance that around a little bit.

00:30:37.000 We'll see what we could do.

00:30:38.000 We'll see what happens.

00:30:40.000 Because if normal people don't start showing up to school boards, I'm talking about all people, then the country is done and it's lost.

00:30:47.000 But there are more of us than there are of them, everybody.

00:30:50.000 And in any way I can contribute to that, and I could personally show up, so be it.

00:30:54.000 So, June 22nd, governing board, is that really the next one, Connor?

00:30:57.000 June 22nd.

00:31:00.000 Geez, what do they meet like once a month?

00:31:02.000 Tough job.

00:31:04.000 3 p.m. They might as well have it at lunch.

00:31:08.000 No one's going to show up.

00:31:09.000 They show monthly, and they're going to have to hear from all of us.

00:31:11.000 So if you live in Arizona, June 22nd at 3 p.m., Scottsdale, be there.

00:31:17.000 I will not be wearing a mask.

00:31:18.000 I can tell you that much.

00:31:19.000 The truth is on our side.

00:31:21.000 We are going to retake America.

00:31:22.000 It's the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world.

00:31:25.000 I'm in Montana tonight.

00:31:26.000 I love it here.

00:31:27.000 Still part of America.

00:31:29.000 See you soon.

00:31:32.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.

00:31:33.000 Email us your thoughts freedom at CharlieKirk.com.

00:31:36.000 God bless you guys.

00:31:37.000 Speak to you soon.
