00:03:34.000 It's great to be back in North Dakota, one of my favorite places on the planet.

00:03:37.000 And only Scott Hennan could get me back to North Dakota.

00:03:41.000 We've had a very, very busy month this week.

00:03:44.000 And Scott Hennan is the man.

00:03:46.000 And I just want to say I love meeting with all of you and talking with all of you.

00:03:50.000 Thank you for those of you that still continue to listen to talk radio, especially the Flag Radio Network.

00:03:56.000 I know a lot of you came up to me in the photo line.

00:03:59.000 He said, Charlie, listen every day.

00:04:00.000 I listen every day.

00:04:02.000 And that's so comforting because for those of us that talk into a microphone in an empty room all day long, we're like, oh, is anyone actually listening to this?

00:04:10.000 Turns out you are actually listening to this.

00:04:12.000 And you guys are listening intently and getting something out of it.

00:04:16.000 So I love the Flag Radio Network and love what Scott is doing.

00:04:19.000 And you guys need to keep on listening and supporting.

00:04:21.000 And understand the, I want to just riff on this for a second here.

00:04:25.000 The significance of talk radio, it is one of the only places where the sensors are not able to get to our ideas.

00:04:33.000 There is no algorithm.

00:04:35.000 There is no special social media manipulation.

00:04:39.000 It is straight from host to listener.

00:04:42.000 It is straight from host to you.

00:04:45.000 And I feel as if talk radio is one of the most important things that remain in this country that keeps the conservative movement alive.

00:04:52.000 And we need to also just kind of give a hat tip to the great Rush Limbaugh who invented the medium and understand what he did for all of us.

00:05:01.000 And by the way, they're trying to get rid of talk radio.

00:05:04.000 They've been trying to get rid of talk radio for years in D.C. They've been trying to get rid of talk radio by regulating the AM FM requirements.

00:05:15.000 In fact, they have this new thing.

00:05:17.000 I'll never forget, I was talking to one of these electric vehicle wackos, and he said that we can no longer have AM radio in electric vehicles.

00:05:27.000 Do you guys hear about this?

00:05:29.000 Because it might make the engine combust. 0.91

00:05:32.000 And that might be true.

00:05:34.000 I said, no, no, no, you don't want AM radio because that's where real Americans get their information without the BS from CNN and NBC.

00:05:42.000 That's why you don't want AM radio and the electric vehicles.

00:05:45.000 Oh, no, no, it might make the vehicle.

00:05:47.000 I said, hold on a second.

00:05:48.000 If you're worried about an engine combusting, maybe electric vehicles are a scam and not exactly a great idea.

00:05:53.000 He didn't like that answer at all.

00:05:55.000 But no, thank you guys for listening.

00:05:57.000 It is so important.

00:05:58.000 And support the sponsors on the radio stations.

00:06:01.000 We need to keep radio alive year over year over year.

00:06:05.000 The bad guys have been saying that radio is dead.

00:06:08.000 Radio is dead.

00:06:10.000 And we're showing that radio is alive and well, and so is the conservative movement.

00:06:13.000 So I'm honored to be back here, guys.

00:06:15.000 You know, Scott is such a great friend.

00:06:17.000 And Scott says, Charlie, you got to bring some hope here tonight.

00:06:20.000 And so I'm going out of my way to be overly positive tonight.

00:06:25.000 And then just before I get on, Scott says, Yeah, you know, my wife said that you put up this great tweet about Biden's executive order and how he's mobilizing the entire federal government, you know, to become a get out the vote arm.

00:06:36.000 And I said, I thought you wanted me to be positive, Scott.

00:06:39.000 So I could talk about all the negative.

00:06:41.000 We're going to do QA for quite a while tonight.

00:06:44.000 And quite one of the longer QAs I've done in a while.

00:06:47.000 So I look forward to that.

00:06:48.000 But I want to give you five positive things, five wins, and it's not hopium.

00:06:53.000 Do you know what hopium is?

00:06:54.000 It's hope and opium mixed together, and it feels really good, but it's really bad for you.

00:06:59.000 This is actual positive movements in the country because I could go through the negatives.

00:07:03.000 We don't have a southern border.

00:07:05.000 We have an illegitimate regime, death of representative government.

00:07:08.000 However, there are real things happening in the country that are fighting back against this.

00:07:12.000 That people are waking up, activists are stepping up, and the best of America is yet to come because the resolve and the spirit of America has not yet been destroyed by these oligarchs.

00:07:22.000 So I think it's important for us to frame really what we're up against.

00:07:26.000 What we're up against is not the typical administration.

00:07:30.000 We know Joe Biden is not the president.

00:07:32.000 We know that.

00:07:33.000 Instead, there is an illegitimate administrative state that is running the country.

00:07:39.000 And there is a better term for it.

00:07:41.000 And it's very interesting.

00:07:42.000 If you turn on MSNBC, which I do every morning, by the way, I record Morning Joe.

00:07:47.000 I live on the West Coast.

00:07:48.000 And I watch. 1.00

00:07:48.000 You might say, Charlie, why do you watch that garbage? 1.00

00:07:50.000 It's information warfare. 0.99

00:07:52.000 You know what they're thinking, what they're saying.

00:07:54.000 You could better understand their next moves.

00:07:56.000 And they'll constantly say, our democracy is under attack.

00:08:00.000 Our democracy is under attack.

00:08:02.000 Now, I know you're with me.

00:08:04.000 We are a republic, not a democracy.

00:08:06.000 And that distinction is critical.

00:08:08.000 We are a republic.

00:08:09.000 Nowhere in our founding documents does it say we are a democracy.

00:08:13.000 However, every time you hear the word democracy, replace it with the word oligarchy.

00:08:19.000 Who said that?

00:08:20.000 You are a good listener of the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:08:22.000 You know what you're talking about, right?

00:08:24.000 I beat that into you every morning.

00:08:26.000 I love it.

00:08:27.000 What is an oligarchy?

00:08:29.000 So a monarchy is the rule of one person.

00:08:32.000 Democracy is supposed to be the rule of the demos, the people.

00:08:35.000 A republic is, yes, the rule of the people, but you have certain unalienable rights that cannot be trampled by the government because God gave you those rights.

00:08:43.000 Government did not give you those rights.

00:08:45.000 But what is an oligarchy?

00:08:47.000 An oligarchy is a rule of the few.

00:08:50.000 And that is the best word to describe the transformation that we are living through right now, is that they are trying to transform us from a representative form of government to an oligarchy.

00:09:01.000 And this has happened not so subtly over the last 20 or 30 years.

00:09:05.000 And I'll prove it to you in one way.

00:09:07.000 Who is an oligarch?

00:09:09.000 An expert is an oligarch.

00:09:12.000 How many times they say, well, experts say that we have to shut down all the schools because of COVID.

00:09:17.000 Experts say you have to wear masks when you drive alone in a car.

00:09:21.000 Experts say you have to get a vaccine that is perfectly safe and effective.

00:09:25.000 By the way, we need massive lawsuits against these vaccine manufacturers for what they did, don't we?

00:09:30.000 Massive lawsuits.

00:09:32.000 And secondly, Fauci should be in prison for what he did when we locked down all of our schools in this country.

00:09:40.000 Someone needs to pay, and I will get into that, the lost generation that was created after we locked down all of our schools. 0.96

00:09:47.000 Experts say, trust the scientists.

00:09:50.000 Oh, we have knowledge that you don't have because we went to a special intel briefing.

00:09:56.000 That is not the rule of the people.

00:09:58.000 That is the rule of the oligarchs.

00:10:01.000 And that transformation is so important to understand because what we're fighting for is not a Republican revolution.

00:10:10.000 It's not even a conservative one.

00:10:12.000 Those are nice and we're going to get them.

00:10:14.000 We want a restoration of the founders' intent of the form and the structure of government itself.

00:10:21.000 Because it does not necessarily matter what party is in control.

00:10:25.000 It matters what form of government are they going to be in control of.

00:10:29.000 And if it is a Republican Party that is in quote-unquote control of an oligarchy, they're not actually in control because there's a permanent oligarchy and administrative state that is beneath them that is actually calling the shots.

00:10:42.000 Sidebar, this is why Trump is different and why Trump is a threat to them.

00:10:48.000 Because Donald Trump puts you in the room.

00:10:51.000 Donald Trump increases the awareness and the activism so that the people can retake their government from the despots that have been running it the last 20 or 30 years.

00:11:02.000 That's why he is facing 700 years in federal prison.

00:11:05.000 That's why they're trying to take his business empire away from him.

00:11:08.000 Because you're not supposed to care as much as you do.

00:11:11.000 You're not supposed to know the names of Peter Strzok or Lisa Page or Brewster Nelly Orr.

00:11:17.000 You're not supposed to care about how bureaucrats work.

00:11:20.000 Leave the business of running the government to the experts and you guys don't get in the way.

00:11:24.000 Trump disrupted all of that.

00:11:26.000 And that's why they hate him so much because he represents, more than anything else, a restoration of the founders' promise of citizens running the government, not the government running over the citizens.

00:11:38.000 And that is a profound distinction.

00:11:40.000 So these are five important things if we understand our goals.

00:11:46.000 Our goal is to crush the oligarchy.

00:11:49.000 Our goal is to say you do not run the country anymore, but it's going to be the citizens.

00:11:54.000 And this is what drives me nuts, and I think you will agree that if you do not have leaders that go to D.C., that listen to their voters, you no longer have a country, you have a colony, or you have something else.

00:12:09.000 And we say America first, but it would be nice if the Republican Party started acting in America first ways when we send them to Washington, D.C.

00:12:21.000 And I have polite and respectful disagreements with certain lawmakers here in the state, but I don't know about you, but I want money sent to the U.S. southern border, not to Ukraine, while we are being invaded.

00:12:36.000 So that is the direction we want ahead.

00:12:40.000 And these are five wins, five things that are happening in real time that are getting us closer.

00:12:45.000 Number one, I live in the great state of Arizona.

00:12:48.000 There is no path to the White House without winning Arizona, period.

00:12:51.000 You cannot get there unless some sort of a goofy math configuration.

00:12:55.000 Arizona has 11 electoral votes.

00:12:57.000 It was once a red state.

00:12:58.000 We want to bring it back to a red state. 0.99

00:13:00.000 I believe Donald Trump won Arizona in 2020, but we can do that during QA.

00:13:04.000 But we'll get to election integrity in a different seminar at a different time.

00:13:07.000 So that's a huge topic.

00:13:09.000 In 2020, there were 100,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats in the state of Arizona.

00:13:18.000 Now, just last week, thanks to the hard work of Turning Point Action and grassroots patriots who refused to give up, there are now 236,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats in the state of Arizona.

00:13:33.000 Now, that's going to be a turnout game.

00:13:35.000 Can we chase the ballots?

00:13:37.000 Can we get them out to vote?

00:13:38.000 I know what you're saying.

00:13:39.000 Oh, Charlie, the elections are corrupt and broken.

00:13:41.000 I will address all of that, but it is harder to steal when you overwhelm the system.

00:13:48.000 And understand, everyone has their role.

00:13:50.000 My role is to make sure that every single patriot goes and votes and gets into the system.

00:13:56.000 I also worry about election integrity, but you can't pick every single fight.

00:14:00.000 Election integrity is super important, but do you know the guaranteed way that we lose?

00:14:04.000 We lose if our people don't show up.

00:14:06.000 But if there's more of our people than not, we give ourselves a better chance that they can't steal it in at 2 a.m. any longer.

00:14:13.000 So Arizona is a massive, massive benefit because the Democrats have been spending hundreds of millions of dollars in Arizona, doing everything they possibly can to try to get Democrats registered to vote.

00:14:26.000 They have hundreds of full-time organizers.

00:14:28.000 Yet despite that, we're being outspent 10 to 1, 15 to 1, 20 to 1.

00:14:32.000 We have net increased the amount of registered Republicans by 136,000 new people just since 2020.

00:14:40.000 What can possibly explain that?

00:14:42.000 That means our message is reaching new communities.

00:14:45.000 Hispanic voters, younger voters, people that traditionally were not Republicans that are moving into the state of Arizona are identifying with our value system and the conservative agenda.

00:14:56.000 Second win I want to share with you, Pennsylvania.

00:14:59.000 So Pennsylvania recently passed a really stupid idea, but it's actually going to end up backfiring on Democrats, which is called the motor voter law, which means if you get a driver's license, you immediately get registered to vote whether you like it or not.

00:15:12.000 And so we said, oh my goodness, this thing's going to increase a bunch of fraud. 0.95

00:15:15.000 So there are 67 counties in the state of Pennsylvania.

00:15:18.000 For the first time in recent memory, all 67 counties in the state of Pennsylvania are outpacing with more Republicans than Democrats registering to vote in the state of Pennsylvania for the first time in recent memory.

00:15:33.000 They don't show you this on TV, do they?

00:15:36.000 That's why you got to listen to the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:15:38.000 Doom and gloom will break you down.

00:15:40.000 We'll build you back up all in three hours or less.

00:15:44.000 You've got plenty of doom and gloom, too, but you've got to talk about the good news, too.

00:15:48.000 And I just want to take a side note.

00:15:50.000 The attitude that I don't like that maybe someone here has is: Charlie, it's all over.

00:15:55.000 It's all broken.

00:15:56.000 It's all terrible.

00:15:58.000 That Jesus is coming next Thursday, and it's not falling apart, but it's fallen into place.

00:16:04.000 And I always say, look, maybe Jesus is coming next Thursday.

00:16:07.000 What do you want to be caught doing when Jesus returns?

00:16:10.000 Running like a coward to the hills or fighting for truth and righteousness and liberty when it matters most.

00:16:22.000 So we are out-registering them in Arizona.

00:16:24.000 We are gaining ground in Pennsylvania.

00:16:26.000 The third thing, which is one of my favorites, I want to spend some time on this, is the Democrats had a plan.

00:16:32.000 They plan everything out.

00:16:33.000 Remember, they are central planners.

00:16:35.000 They're oligarchs.

00:16:35.000 They're experts.

00:16:36.000 They go to Harvard, which, by the way, can we finally defund all of these Ivy League schools as being cancers on society?

00:16:44.000 Am I right?

00:16:46.000 Yale, Harvard.

00:16:48.000 We have a rule now at turning point.

00:16:49.000 If you're from the Ivy League, you will not get a job. 0.98

00:16:52.000 It's that simple.

00:16:52.000 Like, we're not going to hire.

00:16:54.000 If you go to Yale, I'm not hiring you.

00:16:55.000 I immediately think you're a bigot if you went to Yale.

00:16:58.000 I mean, you see what they're doing here? 0.92

00:17:00.000 They're taking over these entire schools because they hate Jews that much.

00:17:04.000 That sort of anti-Semitism has no place in decent American society.

00:17:07.000 So, secondly, they have a plan.

00:17:11.000 The plan that they had was this.

00:17:13.000 We're going to get Donald Trump in a bitter and bloody primary.

00:17:18.000 We're going to try to make his poll numbers go down.

00:17:20.000 We're going to put him on a debate stage where he's have to scream at a bunch of candidates.

00:17:24.000 And the Republican primary is going to be expensive.

00:17:26.000 It's going to be long, and he'll barely escape with escape at all.

00:17:29.000 In the midst of it, we're going to indict him, first in New York, then twice federally, and then in Georgia, make him spend a bunch of legal fees and bring down his popularity, bankrupt his campaign account.

00:17:39.000 The Republican base will leave him, and it will be a shell of where a movement once existed with only his most fervent supporters.

00:17:46.000 All the while, we're going to spend nonstop political advertising talking about Joe Biden's support of abortion, and we're going to waltz our way to election into November.

00:17:55.000 This was their plan.

00:17:57.000 Instead, Donald Trump won the Republican primary in historic fashion.

00:18:02.000 You won every single state, Nikki Haley, I guess technically won D.C. Guess what?

00:18:05.000 You can have it, Nikki Healy.

00:18:06.000 You won D.C.

00:18:07.000 I think that's wonderful that Donald Trump lost the D.C. primary.

00:18:10.000 I don't care if it's a Republican, a bunch of lobbyists don't like D.C., love Donald Trump, love him even more.

00:18:15.000 So, but despite all of this, every time they indict him, this is remarkable, his popularity goes up.

00:18:22.000 This is worthy of just thinking about for a second.

00:18:26.000 And I believe it's because Donald Trump is no longer a person.

00:18:30.000 Donald Trump is a symbol.

00:18:33.000 And he's a symbol of how we believe our country, and with that, our government has gone so far off track that a man who was an excellent president the best of my lifetime, and I'm guessing the best of many of your lifetimes, is being punished for doing everything he said he was going to do, for having no new wars, a flourishing economy, and a secure southern border.

00:18:57.000 And we are going to punish him by trying to throw him in jail permanently.

00:19:01.000 Those of us that still have reason and have capacity to think and process information, we say, I like Trump more the more that I see them throw lawfare at him.

00:19:12.000 In fact, they thought that the lawfare campaign against Donald Trump was going to break him.

00:19:19.000 Tragically, it has not broken him.

00:19:21.000 It has broken our faith in the American justice system.

00:19:25.000 And this is a very sad truth that we must sit in, is that they are going after all of us.

00:19:32.000 Just last week, they indicted rank-and-file patriots in the state of Arizona.

00:19:37.000 You guys have a great attorney general here, by the way, who's doing a wonderful job.

00:19:41.000 Unlike in Arizona, our attorney general in Arizona, who is awful, Chris Mays, despite the fact that we have an open border, flagrant crime, tons of opioids, Chris Mays indicts 11 people,

00:19:55.000 including the CEO of Turning Point Action, Tyler Boyer, who some of you know he's on our show a lot, who signed a piece of paper saying they wanted to be alternate electors for Donald Trump, a constitutionally protected tradition that was actually used by the Democrats in 1960 successfully.

00:20:12.000 She's indicted all of them.

00:20:13.000 Dana Nestler did the same thing in Michigan.

00:20:15.000 This is an outrageous campaign because you know why?

00:20:18.000 All they have left is handcuffs and leg irons.

00:20:22.000 They cannot win the debate about who can run the country better.

00:20:25.000 They cannot win the debate about who is better equipped to govern.

00:20:29.000 And so you might say, but Charlie, that's bad news.

00:20:32.000 It actually shows that they are so desperate, they are willing to desecrate our legal tradition to lock up political dissidents permanently just because they don't like them.

00:20:44.000 And what is remarkable gives me hope and gives me faith because I wasn't sure.

00:20:47.000 I was like, what country are we living in here?

00:20:49.000 I will say, I've never had less faith in our government, and yet I have more hope in the everyday American such as you, because despite all of this, 50 to 51%, 40% to 45% of what state still support Donald Trump despite everything they've thrown at him.

00:21:07.000 That is remarkable.

00:21:08.000 You've resisted the propaganda.

00:21:10.000 You've resisted the nonsense they've thrown at you.

00:21:12.000 Say, nope, I still support him.

00:21:13.000 You want to indict him one more time?

00:21:15.000 His poll numbers might go up even more.

00:21:17.000 In fact, I don't know about you.

00:21:18.000 When I see him sitting in that courtroom, which he's basically on courtroom house arrest, I think to myself, how did we get to a country where we are that corrupt, we are that broken?

00:21:30.000 And the answer is very simple: it's that we're very close to overturning their oligarchy.

00:21:35.000 That's how we got there.

00:21:37.000 This is a desperate regime using everything they possibly can at their disposal.

00:21:42.000 So Trump's popularity is remarkable.

00:21:43.000 That's the third thing.

00:21:44.000 Fourth positive thing I want to share, which is really important.

00:21:47.000 A recent poll by Axios was done, and they asked everyday Americans, Republicans, Democrats, Independents, would you support Donald Trump's plan to deport all, they even said undocumented immigrants from the country.

00:22:02.000 51% of all voters say yes, send them all back home. 0.94

00:22:06.000 51%, including almost the majority of Democrats.

00:22:11.000 Now, maybe it's not popular here in North Dakota, but guys, that's huge news.

00:22:15.000 Okay, I guess it's the main, okay.

00:22:18.000 It's funny.

00:22:19.000 When I say that in Texas, they're like screaming and they're, we need to deport every single person who has invaded this country under the Biden regime.

00:22:29.000 We are being invaded on a daily basis.

00:22:31.000 And despite the propaganda, they've thrown everything they can at us.

00:22:36.000 We need to have the largest deportation effort in the history of this country, day one of Donald J. Trump's presidency.

00:22:44.000 We need to have the cartels rounded up, anyone who is in this country illegally. 1.00

00:22:49.000 And you would think, oh, we don't have the stomach for it.

00:22:51.000 It shows the opposite.

00:22:52.000 It shows that Americans are demanding this because they are tired of seeing the increase of crime, the overflow of social services, their jobs being taken.

00:23:02.000 But it's more than that.

00:23:04.000 It's an insult for those of you that follow the law.

00:23:08.000 It's an insult for those of you that pay your taxes, that send your kids to schools, and involve yourself in school board meetings.

00:23:16.000 It's an insult to all of you that maybe came to this country legally, which is the right way to come. 1.00

00:23:21.000 And we need to support that.

00:23:22.000 It's an insult to all of you that say, I want to live in a country that's law-abiding, that you can border jump and waltz into the country 15,000 at a time per day, and somehow you're granted victim status.

00:23:36.000 And to give you an idea how perverse Joe Biden and the Democrat regime is, Joe Biden at the State of the Union screwed up Lake and Riley's name, the young girl who was brutally murdered while jogging at the University of Georgia.

00:23:51.000 He said something of the sort of, you know, I don't support illegals or something like that.

00:23:56.000 He had to go do an interview a couple days after saying, I didn't mean to say that.

00:24:02.000 They're the people who built this country.

00:24:04.000 That's an offensive term.

00:24:07.000 You can look it up.

00:24:08.000 You can fact-check me on this.

00:24:09.000 That the priority is given to the criminal and the citizen is de-emphasized.

00:24:15.000 If we do not have a massive deportation effort like any other sane country would, we are no longer a country.

00:24:22.000 You cannot have millions of people break the most fundamental.

00:24:25.000 What is that signal does that send?

00:24:27.000 Your first contact with somebody, they say first impressions matter.

00:24:30.000 Yeah, the first impression is, I'm just going to break into your home.

00:24:33.000 Okay, yeah, I'm sure you're a nice person.

00:24:35.000 Besides that, like, are you going to pay rent?

00:24:37.000 No.

00:24:38.000 Like, oh, really?

00:24:39.000 Thanks for like taking the car, too.

00:24:41.000 It's all going to get better from here.

00:24:43.000 And what is a tragedy is that they are taking advantage of our generosity in this country.

00:24:50.000 Is that we are a generous country.

00:24:52.000 We are a charitable country.

00:24:54.000 We are a good country.

00:24:56.000 We have great people that sacrificially give to help other people.

00:25:00.000 However, we are not a country that should ever embrace chaos, discord, or the intentional erosion of the rule of law.

00:25:08.000 And when we see that happen on a daily basis, what it does is it makes it harder for us to enforce our other laws.

00:25:16.000 Oh, they come across the border on the southern border.

00:25:19.000 Okay, I guess looting is fine now, which it is in most American cities, by the way.

00:25:22.000 Oh, I guess you can take up to $900 of goods in San Francisco, and it's a misdemeanor equivalent to running a red light or jaywalking.

00:25:32.000 $900. 0.85

00:25:34.000 And as I always say, if we would just follow the Ten Commandments and make that the entire federal law, like law book, we'd be in a much better place than that garbage that we have right now.

00:25:46.000 Very simple.

00:25:47.000 Oh, you're not allowed to steal somebody's spot to come into America.

00:25:51.000 Got it.

00:25:52.000 Okay, thou shalt not.

00:25:52.000 Oh, you're coveting to come into the country.

00:25:55.000 You want to be, I can't go there.

00:25:56.000 Sorry.

00:25:57.000 Very simple, right?

00:25:58.000 The Ten Commandments, the Decalogue, the Rules for Life.

00:26:01.000 That right there.

00:26:02.000 Oh, really?

00:26:03.000 You want to have an abortion? 1.00

00:26:04.000 Sorry, thou shalt not murder.

00:26:05.000 Can't happen.

00:26:06.000 It's very simple, right?

00:26:08.000 Oh, really?

00:26:10.000 You want to trans your kid? 1.00

00:26:12.000 Okay.

00:26:13.000 Well, that violates many of the Ten Commandments, including making yourself God over nature.

00:26:17.000 Thou shalt have no other gods.

00:26:18.000 Is that of me?

00:26:19.000 The point, a little bit of a detour here.

00:26:21.000 But we are living through the excesses of secularism in more ways than one.

00:26:26.000 Final point I want to make here before I spend a little bit of time on the trans issue, which has become a very passionate issue of mine, which I believe is one of the more morally defining issues of our time, is what's going on with young people.

00:26:37.000 Turning Point USA, we have our amazing Turning Point USA leader here doing a great job quickly, right?

00:26:43.000 Is that right?

00:26:44.000 What?

00:26:45.000 Quinn, I'm sorry.

00:26:46.000 Quinn, stand up.

00:26:47.000 Doing a great job.

00:26:48.000 She's doing a great job.

00:26:52.000 Thank you.

00:26:54.000 And starting chapters across the country and just really doing a great, great work here.

00:27:00.000 The amount of movement we're seeing with younger voters is remarkable.

00:27:04.000 And in fact, data shows that young men are the most conservative that they have been in the last 50 years.

00:27:13.000 Young men are the most conservative they've been in 50 years. 0.97

00:27:17.000 You see that?

00:27:18.000 Those men are knuckle punching back there. 0.99

00:27:20.000 Now, young women are an opportunity for us. 0.67

00:27:25.000 We've got some work to do, right?

00:27:27.000 They are four points less liberal than they were in 2020, so that's good.

00:27:32.000 But they are significantly liberal, and we could talk about that.

00:27:35.000 There is a right-wing revolution happening with young men in this country.

00:27:40.000 You might say why.

00:27:41.000 From the moment that they enter school, especially white men, they are told that they are the problem.

00:27:47.000 That it's systemically racist. 0.77

00:27:49.000 You have white privilege. 0.57

00:27:50.000 You're trampling on indigenous grounds. 1.00

00:27:53.000 Oh, you misgendered me. 0.99

00:27:54.000 Oh, you talked to a woman wrong and you're toxically masculine. 1.00

00:27:58.000 And young men in this country are sick of the political correct crap. 0.99

00:28:02.000 They're sick of the hyper-feminized culture and they want to be men again. 0.99

00:28:07.000 And the conservative movement is a vehicle that allows them to be men in this country.

00:28:15.000 And this is a crisis.

00:28:19.000 Without, you know, again, I'm talking about positive things in this portion of the talk, but the younger generation is the most depressed, suicidal, alcohol-addicted generation in history.

00:28:29.000 We have the lowest fertility rates of any country in American history this year, lowest fertility rates, below replacement levels.

00:28:38.000 It is the least married generation, the least likely to have children, the least likely to own homes.

00:28:44.000 And I want you to understand for a second: it is easy and tempting to look on TV and think that all young people are those psychopaths that are supporting Hamas.

00:28:54.000 But there are tens of millions of decent young people that are doing the right thing that have been screwed.

00:29:02.000 Let's play the tape back just four years.

00:29:05.000 Four years ago, we shut down a country that we never should have shut down, let alone schools, for a virus that did not threaten young people with proms and graduations canceled, summer activities canceled, making them a permanently socially isolated generation where they stared at their screen all day long.

00:29:22.000 While they were locked up, no offense, baby boomers got way richer than they ever have. 0.99

00:29:28.000 Asset prices went up, homes nearly doubled in value across the country.

00:29:32.000 The stock market went from $19,000 to now $38,000.

00:29:38.000 A lot of young people don't own stocks.

00:29:39.000 They don't own assets.

00:29:40.000 They were just like, okay, I guess we're locked down wearing masks.

00:29:43.000 By the time they graduate college four years later, home ownership is at record low levels for the younger generation.

00:29:50.000 According to Zillow.com, you used to be able to own a home on an average $71,000 a year salary.

00:29:57.000 Now, it might be different here in North Dakota, but I'm guessing there's similar trends.

00:30:00.000 Now, according to Zillow.com, it's $115,000 a year to be able to buy a home.

00:30:07.000 So you have a generation that went four years into debt to study things that don't matter, to find jobs that don't exist, while they're not able to even own property.

00:30:15.000 They look around in the dating pool where one-third of the potential applicants to date are gay or transgender.

00:30:20.000 And then the ones that actually might want to date, they're like, no, I want to go move to Minneapolis and become a corporate lawyer, and I'll maybe date you in a decade.

00:30:29.000 And so you have a generation that is collapsing.

00:30:33.000 And by the way, the young people are laughing hysterically because we are training our young ladies to go become masculine versions of themselves, to go into the corporate sphere, reject their biological urge to have children and have a family, go move to our major cities, harden themselves, and maybe entertain dating seriously by the age of 32.

00:30:52.000 And we wonder why fertility rates are the lowest they've ever been in American history.

00:30:57.000 Maybe it's because we've turned our back on God's design and say, oh no, don't get married, it's a terrible thing, when we should be the ones celebrating marriage as God's design for all people to have children and to be fruitful and multiply.

00:31:10.000 And that message is a winning message.

00:31:13.000 It's a beautiful message.

00:31:14.000 And young men in particular, and I think as the men go, the women will go, I hope. 1.00

00:31:21.000 Meaning that hopefully they'll lead the women along because it's amazing.

00:31:24.000 If you are a single, 30-year-old, single woman in this country, you're like, you're almost guaranteed to be a Democrat. 0.97

00:31:30.000 It's like 85, 90%, right?

00:31:32.000 As soon as you get married, that goes down to like you're 60% likely to be a Democrat.

00:31:37.000 As soon as you have kids, you're a right-wing, raging Republican.

00:31:44.000 And we laugh, but we say, wait a second, if I wanted to create a bunch of communist revolutionaries, I would have the three things that are so simple in American life not happen.

00:31:55.000 And this is why people, you know, they call me a radical and all this stuff.

00:31:57.000 I say, no, actually, my politics are super, super moderate.

00:32:01.000 I want every young person to, first and foremost, be able to get married, have children without having to go into debt, and own a home.

00:32:10.000 If you were able to do those three things, I don't want to say easily, but you were able to do it affordably and you made it happen, you have something that this generation does not have.

00:32:22.000 And you might say, oh, come on, quit complaining.

00:32:24.000 Let's talk about health care debt, medical debt, student loan debt, credit card debt.

00:32:29.000 Have you seen prices are up 15% in just the last couple years, and wages are not keeping up with inflation, not even close.

00:32:35.000 So your dollar is worth less every single year.

00:32:37.000 We have to pay more taxes to go feed big daddy government. 1.00

00:32:41.000 And then to have children, the number one reason, and this is what's striking, and I don't, I reject this, but I sympathize with.

00:32:49.000 You might say, oh, kids don't want to have, they don't want to have kids because, you know, of all their left-wing values.

00:32:54.000 Sort of.

00:32:55.000 The number one reason why people are not having more children, it costs too much money.

00:33:00.000 Elizabeth Warren is a whack job. 1.00

00:33:03.000 However, she wrote a book that was very, very interesting before she became a senator.

00:33:09.000 And it was called The Two Income Trap.

00:33:12.000 I encourage you guys to read it.

00:33:13.000 This was done 20 years ago, okay?

00:33:14.000 This is back when she actually would do series scholarship, where she said it's bad for America to force both the mom and the dad into the workplace. 0.89

00:33:24.000 It's one of the most powerful books you can read.

00:33:26.000 Again, it's like Pocahontas, it's crazy stuff. 1.00

00:33:29.000 But you read it, you're like, is this really Elizabeth Warren?

00:33:31.000 Like, what happened to her?

00:33:32.000 And her argument is this.

00:33:33.000 She said, it's not good for a majority of kids in America to be raised in daycare, which they are, by the way.

00:33:38.000 Okay?

00:33:38.000 I'm not against daycare if you have to do it.

00:33:40.000 Totally understand, right?

00:33:41.000 But I don't think anybody can make the argument that's the ideal, okay?

00:33:44.000 And most parents who use daycare say, I wish I would not have to use daycare.

00:33:50.000 In 1985, when many of you were hustling and busting, bustling and making a good living, in 1985, you would be able to support a family of four on 36 weeks of work a year.

00:34:03.000 So there's 52 weeks.

00:34:04.000 That means anything over 36 weeks, you're building wealth, saving money, vacation time.

00:34:10.000 It now requires 56 weeks of work a year to support a family of four.

00:34:16.000 So every year you're getting poorer.

00:34:18.000 And by the way, those are two years outdated.

00:34:20.000 I bet it's like 60 weeks of work.

00:34:22.000 So the wife has to go into the workforce. 1.00

00:34:26.000 And then the kids don't exactly get as much time.

00:34:28.000 The divorce rate isn't, you're more likely to get divorced than married if you get married in this country.

00:34:32.000 And so this generation says, what's the point?

00:34:35.000 What's the path forward?

00:34:37.000 And here's where it could go one of two ways: is that it could go one way where we restore homeownership, family formation, having children.

00:34:45.000 Or this sets the table, and this is the danger warning, for a Marxist revolution like you've never seen in this country.

00:34:54.000 If you have a generation of 40 million people that don't own property, that's a generation that will want to take other people's property. 0.94

00:35:05.000 And it's hard to stop them because they have been scammed.

00:35:09.000 They've been scammed through COVID, scammed at college, scammed in the workforce.

00:35:13.000 And so my message to any Republican that will listen that's running for office is let's turn them into our voters, de-radicalize them by getting them a home, family, and kids.

00:35:22.000 As I always say, if you're paying a mortgage, you're less likely to burn down a Wendy's.

00:35:27.000 Just like kind of the rule of life, right?

00:35:31.000 I wonder how many of the people that participated in Floyd-Palooza had to go back and put a kid to sleep at night.

00:35:37.000 By definition, when you have children, it de-radicalizes your Marxist politics.

00:35:42.000 But if you're childless, own nothing, and not married, you are a sleeper cell waiting to be activated for a Bolshevik revolution. 0.58

00:35:52.000 A sleeper cell at any potential time.

00:35:55.000 Okay, I want to really zero in on the trans issue now.

00:35:57.000 I think it's super important.

00:35:59.000 Matt Walsh certainly is the best on this issue.

00:36:02.000 I would give myself a silver medal in the sense that I have read every book I can get my hands on because this issue, like many of you, it has bothered me at the fundamental core, which I have now come to the conclusion the trans issue, especially with children, but not exclusively children, is the quiet subterranean moral defining issue of our time. 0.67

00:36:22.000 That if we are not able to say that you cannot groom a 12-year-old, that you are not allowed to give cross-sex hormones to a 14-year-old, we have lost every cultural battle. 0.58

00:36:32.000 And understand, I'm 100% pro-life and want to see abortion abolished in my lifetime.

00:36:37.000 And the trans issue is an outgrowth of our inability to win on the life issue. 0.78

00:36:44.000 If Satan can't terminate you in the womb, he'll try to get you to chop off your breasts and call yourself by a different name. 1.00

00:36:50.000 It's all a life issue.

00:36:52.000 And so I've been told that the Fargo schools are doing some wacky stuff in defiance to state law.

00:37:00.000 We have to, I don't know the details.

00:37:02.000 You guys can inform me during QA.

00:37:04.000 I encourage every single one of you to do the following: that trans ideology, trans flag, pride flags should be nowhere near an individual under the age of 18 in the state of North Dakota, period.

00:37:16.000 There must be a line in the sand drawn.

00:37:19.000 And the tragedy of this is that we were, again, taken advantage of.

00:37:26.000 If there was a, again, I'm writing like four different books, but I have one coming up in the summer.

00:37:31.000 There's a book I could write quickly, which is How Our Generosity Destroyed America.

00:37:36.000 And essentially, we are so generous and we always look at people as their better angels, and they take advantage of that.

00:37:45.000 So, for example, I believe marriage one man, one woman.

00:37:48.000 I bet you guys are with me, right?

00:37:50.000 And they beat us over the head for years, though.

00:37:53.000 Why don't you want homosexuals to have your rights and all this? 1.00

00:37:56.000 And we kind of lost that argument, to be honest.

00:37:58.000 We shouldn't have, but we lost the argument.

00:38:01.000 And we kind of sued for peace.

00:38:02.000 Okay, you guys have the Obergefeld decision, live and let live.

00:38:08.000 And then all of a sudden, they're like, no, we're coming after your kids.

00:38:11.000 We're like, wait, I thought you just guys want gay marriage. 0.88

00:38:14.000 Oh, no, no, no.

00:38:15.000 It's live and let us rule. 0.86

00:38:17.000 You see, it started with acceptance.

00:38:20.000 You must accept me.

00:38:22.000 That's kind of weird.

00:38:22.000 Like, why do I...

00:38:23.000 Okay, fine, sure. 0.67

00:38:24.000 I'll accept you as whatever homosexual thing. 1.00

00:38:25.000 It's fine.

00:38:26.000 Okay, sure.

00:38:26.000 Even though it's against my value system.

00:38:29.000 Actually, no, you must celebrate me.

00:38:31.000 I must celebrate you?

00:38:33.000 What do you mean?

00:38:34.000 Okay, sure.

00:38:35.000 Flag.

00:38:36.000 Don't, you know, write in front of my building.

00:38:38.000 Okay.

00:38:38.000 Now you must participate.

00:38:39.000 I must participate.

00:38:40.000 Yeah, give us your kids. 1.00

00:38:43.000 I'm going to say something provocative, but it's true.

00:38:46.000 They cannot reproduce, so they must recruit. 1.00

00:38:50.000 Make that a bumper sticker and see how that goes in downtown Fargo.

00:38:55.000 And I know that might cut deep, but it is true.

00:39:01.000 If it was all about acceptance of a certain lifestyle of how people were, why do you need then in curriculum?

00:39:09.000 Why then do you need it in as a standard operating procedure?

00:39:12.000 Why can you just wait till someone's 18 to allow them to talk about it?

00:39:16.000 No, because it is a social contagion.

00:39:19.000 There has been a 5,000% increase in trans-identified youth in the last couple of years.

00:39:26.000 5,000% increase.

00:39:29.000 And it is being taught.

00:39:30.000 And now, I just want to scare the parents here for a second.

00:39:33.000 If you have a daughter, much more likely than a son, but it still impacts sons.

00:39:37.000 You might say, why is that?

00:39:38.000 Young ladies are far more likely to fall for social contagions than young boys are.

00:39:43.000 That's not a sexist thing.

00:39:44.000 It is a factual thing.

00:39:45.000 Young girls are more likely to cut themselves.

00:39:47.000 They're more likely to get into those weird packs that were really popular in the 90s, early 2000s.

00:39:52.000 Not a criticism.

00:39:53.000 It's just true, and it's manifesting it through puberty anxiety.

00:39:58.000 Transgenderism with kids, 99% of the time, especially with females, is, I don't feel comfortable in my body. 0.79

00:40:06.000 Which, by the way, if you talk to every woman in this audience, there was a point when they were 12, 13, 14, 15 where they did not feel comfortable in their body.

00:40:14.000 And the way you handle that is you love on that individual and you say, it's going to get better.

00:40:19.000 I love you.

00:40:19.000 I'm here for you.

00:40:20.000 You don't say, let's go down to the gender clinic and plan your breast reduction surgery. 1.00

00:40:27.000 Or, oh, how about hormones, honey?

00:40:30.000 Which is happening to now over 100,000 youth in this country.

00:40:33.000 So, happy to get deeper and deeper into this, but it starts with the little things because they'll say the following: they'll say, Well, we just must be affirming.

00:40:41.000 And you do not affirm a lie.

00:40:45.000 I want to say that again: you do not affirm a lie.

00:40:49.000 Now, that might sound cruel, but think about it.

00:40:53.000 If somebody with anorexia came to you and said, I want liposuction.

00:40:59.000 So, think about those terms: anorexia, I think I'm fat, so I do not eat.

00:41:04.000 Liposuction, a surgical process where you forcibly remove somebody's body fat.

00:41:09.000 Would you then, as a medical professional, affirm the anorexics decision to go into surgery to get liposuction?

00:41:18.000 You would lose your license and you would be muted, you would be destroying that person.

00:41:23.000 So, why is it any different with gender dysphoria?

00:41:26.000 The answer is they have classified it as a civil rights issue, and we've been way too polite on this for far too long.

00:41:32.000 If you're 20 years old and you want to wear a dress in your home, not my problem.

00:41:36.000 But if you blur the line between adult and child and you come after a 14-year-old, it is all of our problems, and we are not going to put up with it, groomer.

00:41:47.000 So, I want to encourage you guys to fight on that.

00:41:49.000 I think it's a civilizational defining issue.

00:41:51.000 Okay, Scott, let's get ready for questions here.

00:41:53.000 But in closing, Arizona voter registration going well, Pennsylvania voter registration going well.

00:41:57.000 Trump's popularity is anti-fragile and resilient despite what they've thrown at him.

00:42:02.000 Deportations are more popular than ever.

00:42:05.000 And finally, there is something promising happening with young voters, especially young male voters.

00:42:11.000 It's an opportunity in front of us.

00:42:12.000 They are seeing the collapse of several simultaneous bad ideas of secularism, globalism, of leftism, Marxism, and postmodernism.

00:42:22.000 And if we do our job, we can lead the younger generation to be the most conservative generation in history.

00:42:27.000 It's going to take work.

00:42:28.000 It's going to take Turning Point USA.

00:42:30.000 It's going to take high school chapters, college chapters, and of course, all of us continuing to speak the truth regardless of the cost.

00:42:36.000 Let's do some questions.

00:42:37.000 Thanks, guys, so much.

00:42:39.000 If you would like to ask a question, I'm going to be roaming around.

00:42:43.000 So just raise your hand and flight me down. 0.66

00:42:44.000 We'll be right there.

00:42:45.000 Here's the first question.

00:42:47.000 I've been a, I don't know how you'd phrase it.

00:42:51.000 I'd say he's a Fargo school board watchdog, is what I'd call you.

00:42:54.000 Yeah, that's fair.

00:42:56.000 A good one.

00:42:57.000 For over two years now.

00:43:00.000 One of the things that you said about what they're doing in secret, I can expand upon that a little bit.

00:43:07.000 They have this document that has only been seen by about 10% of the staff.

00:43:12.000 It's called their gender inclusion guidelines.

00:43:17.000 And in them, expressly, it asks the students whether they should inform the parents or not about all of their gender things.

00:43:28.000 So there's that.

00:43:30.000 I don't really have one.

00:43:31.000 Well, and that's important.

00:43:32.000 So, first of all, is that against the law, Scott, here in North Dakota?

00:43:36.000 Are they breaking the law?

00:43:37.000 The attorney general is in the front row.

00:43:38.000 You better ask him.

00:43:39.000 He's a better lawyer than I am.

00:43:40.000 I don't know.

00:43:41.000 I'm just wondering.

00:43:41.000 I didn't mean it facetiously.

00:43:42.000 It could be against parental notification.

00:43:44.000 Remember back to the Ten Commandments. 0.60

00:43:46.000 This is why the trans issue is bigger than the trans issue. 0.67

00:43:49.000 They seek to obliterate the bond between a parent and a child.

00:43:52.000 In the Ten Commandments, it is the only commandment that involves a promise and your nation.

00:44:00.000 It goes as follows in the original Hebrew: honor your mother and father so that you may live long in the land of which God gave you.

00:44:10.000 You cannot live long in America if you do not have children honoring parents.

00:44:15.000 Now, without going too deep into, I'm sure you guys are a religious group, so I can go pretty.

00:44:20.000 If you're not actually, you need Jesus, so I'll just keep going anyway.

00:44:22.000 So, which is very important.

00:44:24.000 The word honor in Hebrew is a very interesting word.

00:44:27.000 It literally means to treat heavily, to treat with weight, to carry around as if it's not light.

00:44:35.000 Now, it's interesting.

00:44:36.000 The word to curse in Hebrew is the same word to carry lightly.

00:44:40.000 So, if you to curse somebody, you are to carry it lightly, carry it lightly.

00:44:44.000 If you're to honor something, it's to carry it heavily.

00:44:47.000 Interesting.

00:44:47.000 The word parent, so honor your mother and father, the word parent, Torah, and teacher are all the same root word in the Old Testament or in the Hebrew Bible.

00:44:58.000 So, the parent's role is to teach, as it says in Torah, and to guide the child in which the direction that they are in.

00:45:05.000 It's not the government's role to teach the parent.

00:45:09.000 That's what I'm getting at.

00:45:10.000 Okay.

00:45:11.000 I'll do more Bible history in a second.

00:45:14.000 And then the question I had is: next time you're on Tim Poole's show, would you please bring him something positive to talk about?

00:45:21.000 Because he's so blackpilled all the time. 0.99

00:45:24.000 Yep.

00:45:25.000 See, if I get known as positivity, I will have fought my nature.

00:45:31.000 Not because I'm naturally negative.

00:45:33.000 I'm naturally real.

00:45:35.000 And it is dark right now, okay?

00:45:38.000 But you shouldn't always act how you feel.

00:45:40.000 Fighting your nature is one of the most important lessons of the Bible.

00:45:44.000 It doesn't matter how you feel.

00:45:45.000 You must act in the proper and correct way.

00:45:48.000 So when things seem overwhelmingly negative, okay, they are negative, but there are a lot of positives, and there are a lot of things to hold on to.

00:45:56.000 And we have an election in November, and we have a great candidate, and we still have agency, and Jesus is still on his throne.

00:46:02.000 Yes, next question.

00:46:03.000 All right, back here.

00:46:04.000 Hi, my name is Tanner Smith.

00:46:06.000 I've been a fan for quite a while, so thanks for coming.

00:46:09.000 I guess my question is just in general about, I feel like the conservative movement has just been pointing guns in every direction that we can for a while, and I kind of like the excitement, and I feel like any direction towards the right is good at this point.

00:46:24.000 But something I've been wondering is, are we being psyoped at all by this whole movement against like private businesses and corporations instead of focusing on politicians that are not doing the right thing?

00:46:37.000 Every politician, right or left, constantly talks about everyone being influenced by corporations and things like that.

00:46:45.000 And it seems like we're taking away from actually talking about the people who make decisions instead we talk about businesses.

00:46:52.000 Yeah, so that's a great point.

00:46:54.000 So if you didn't quite track that, it's a lot of social, and it's okay, it's not your fault.

00:46:59.000 It's that if you are under the age of 30 and you're in this room, you probably know all about the daily wire drama.

00:47:06.000 Yes?

00:47:07.000 If you're over the age of 50, you're like, what are you talking about?

00:47:10.000 Okay?

00:47:11.000 The way that young conservatives consume information is profoundly different than how older conservatives consume information.

00:47:18.000 We are unique.

00:47:20.000 We are on 150 radio stations.

00:47:22.000 We're on Real America's Voice, Flag Radio Network, and we're also very popular on social media.

00:47:26.000 So, we actually transcend the political generational landscape, one of the only ones that do that.

00:47:32.000 I will say, I haven't engaged in the daily wire drama or any of that because they're friends of mine.

00:47:37.000 And I think it's time that we stop shooting at each other as conservative influencers.

00:47:41.000 And we do need to hold our lawmakers accountable more when they do not represent the will of the voters when they go to Washington, D.C., especially here in North Dakota.

00:47:49.000 You guys are a safe Republican state.

00:47:52.000 You guys need to have leaders that reflect your values when you send them to Washington, D.C.

00:47:56.000 Yes, sir.

00:47:57.000 All right.

00:47:58.000 Hi, Charlie.

00:47:59.000 Honored to be here.

00:48:00.000 Huge fan.

00:48:01.000 My name is Christopher.

00:48:02.000 I'm a student at NDSU.

00:48:03.000 I have several professors who are foreign and can hardly understand a word they say when I go to class. 1.00

00:48:09.000 And I am Chinese.

00:48:10.000 I'm curious.

00:48:12.000 Chinese, Pakistanian, whatever.

00:48:14.000 You know, just most random things.

00:48:16.000 And I can hardly understand a word they say when they go to go to class.

00:48:19.000 It's quite frustrating.

00:48:20.000 And I'm not passing a couple of my classes right now because of it, and finals is next week.

00:48:23.000 So that's also frustrating.

00:48:25.000 Number two, recently, my sister sent me a text and said, hey, can you come to the greenhouse next week with me for a seminar?

00:48:31.000 And I said, why?

00:48:32.000 She said, well, apparently now white straight males are a minority at NDSU.

00:48:38.000 What advice do you have to me to combat these issues at our campus?

00:48:41.000 Well, so do you guys get like minority protections then?

00:48:45.000 I guess probably not, right?

00:48:46.000 Yeah, that's.

00:48:47.000 Yeah, that's the irony, right?

00:48:49.000 Is that you might be a minority, but they still treat you as if you're a majority.

00:48:52.000 That's right, because someone always needs to be blamed.

00:48:54.000 I don't, first, let me just, I don't even know how to answer the Pakistani professor thing.

00:48:59.000 I'm sorry.

00:49:00.000 So don't go to college is my answer because it's a waste of time and a scam.

00:49:03.000 Yeah, so I don't know if that helps at all.

00:49:05.000 But anyway, so this, sorry, that doesn't help.

00:49:07.000 Again, you're kind of proving my point.

00:49:08.000 Can't understand my professors and all this.

00:49:10.000 Okay, you're going into debt for this.

00:49:11.000 Why?

00:49:11.000 Exactly.

00:49:12.000 Okay, so the second part is important.

00:49:14.000 And I don't like talking about this, despite how the media attacks me relentlessly.

00:49:19.000 But I also say things that are true and are real because you guys tune in every single day and you trust me with your time and you trust me with a lot of other things, with sometimes, you know, supporting organization, whatever, turning point.

00:49:31.000 And so I tell you the truth, regardless if it's popular.

00:49:34.000 And there is a war on white people in this country, specifically on young white men.

00:49:39.000 Now, I don't think we should create our own racial identity group like the left has with BLM. 0.96

00:49:45.000 But if we don't acknowledge that the idea of colorblind society is currently under attack and that affirmative action and hiring practices, it's harder and harder for young conservative white people, especially to get into corporate positions than we are fooling ourselves.

00:50:02.000 And it is a self-hating ideology in our corporate practices, in our federal government, in our college admissions.

00:50:10.000 And so it creates a fair amount of, you know, I'm mad as heck and I'm not going to take it anymore.

00:50:16.000 And the proper way to respond to that, I mean, I don't know how to respond to the part that you're now a minority, but here's what I will say.

00:50:23.000 Even though all these things are happening against you, don't allow yourself to act like a victim.

00:50:30.000 And that's very important because nothing drives me nuttier than when people say, okay, it's rigged against me.

00:50:38.000 What's the point?

00:50:39.000 Give me a bunch of free stuff.

00:50:41.000 You could fix the injustice, which we should do, right?

00:50:45.000 And there's a great new book, by the way, by Jeremy Carl.

00:50:48.000 I had him on my show, which is literally a 500-page book that talks about the war on white people.

00:50:54.000 If you don't believe it, it will.

00:50:55.000 You will be speechless.

00:50:58.000 From what kids are being taught through K-12 schools, from how people are hiring jobs to black-only dormitories to black-only graduation ceremonies to corporations saying we are not going to hire white men anymore. 0.87

00:51:10.000 Outright saying it in a violation of the Civil Rights Act.

00:51:13.000 So I don't like talking at the topic because people take me out of context with it.

00:51:16.000 But instead, you must say, you know what?

00:51:18.000 It might be rigged against me.

00:51:19.000 I'm going to work harder.

00:51:20.000 I might start my own business and I'm going to prove people wrong.

00:51:23.000 That's the proper way to respond to injustice, not just kind of complaining all the time, which I'm not saying you will.

00:51:29.000 Thank you.

00:51:32.000 Hi, Charlie.

00:51:33.000 My name is Randy from South Dakota.

00:51:36.000 Again, I just want to give you one of my favorite quotes, and I'd like you to comment on it.

00:51:40.000 Knowledge is gained by study, whereas wisdom is gained by observation.

00:51:46.000 Now, with your, you know, we have so many educated people who lack any common sense or any sort of wisdom.

00:51:54.000 With your experience and turning point, what have you found to be the most efficient technique or the most effective argument that we can get these so-called educated people on the road to wisdom?

00:52:08.000 What a beautiful question.

00:52:09.000 So, number one, the scriptures say that wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord. 1.00

00:52:14.000 So, if you do not have a fear of an almighty God, you might know a lot of facts and be very educated, but you'll be an idiot. 0.98

00:52:21.000 And so, that's what I always say: being educated and wise are two different categories. 0.99

00:52:25.000 You perfectly put it in your question.

00:52:27.000 So, let's define the terms.

00:52:29.000 What is wisdom?

00:52:31.000 Wisdom is the knowledge of the things that do not change.

00:52:34.000 Better said, wisdom is the understanding of the things that do not change.

00:52:39.000 For example, good and evil.

00:52:41.000 What is a human being?

00:52:43.000 Were we created?

00:52:45.000 Is God in charge?

00:52:46.000 What is mercy?

00:52:47.000 What is justice?

00:52:49.000 What is humility?

00:52:50.000 Who is Jesus Christ?

00:52:51.000 What's in the book of Genesis?

00:52:53.000 Those things never change.

00:52:54.000 So, wisdom is the installation of these understandings that are the same in year 2024 than they would be in the year 1774 or in the year 1444.

00:53:05.000 So, classical education, I know some of you guys are involved in the Hillsdale School here, is a great way to do it.

00:53:10.000 So, wisdom can come of one of two ways.

00:53:13.000 Yes, observation, but it can come through life experience, so getting your teeth kicked in for a long period of time, mostly through pain.

00:53:22.000 So, pain is a teacher of wisdom, or reading beautiful things with humility and studying them closely, starting, of course, with the Bible, right?

00:53:32.000 So, you can get wisdom from other texts and other authors.

00:53:36.000 We do neither of those things. 0.95

00:53:37.000 Instead, we fill an entire generation full of rubbish and call them educated and give them a lot of cockiness and confidence to go destroy the world around them. 0.96

00:53:48.000 And so, they're not a religious generation, they're an increasingly secular one. 0.81

00:53:52.000 So, what have I found as a way to successfully instill wisdom?

00:53:55.000 Well, here's the teaching: which is you must administer the law to the proud and grace to the humble.

00:54:04.000 So, there are a lot of proud young kids that think they know everything.

00:54:08.000 So, you must give them the law, show them where they're wrong, essentially, right?

00:54:13.000 Pick apart their arguments, ask them difficult questions, not reject the premise, and stay on them and stay on them.

00:54:19.000 Some of you may have seen my many YouTube videos where we do this, right?

00:54:23.000 And you do that in a form of dialogue of the pursuit of truth.

00:54:27.000 Now, once they have been broken down and they realize they don't have all the answers, then you give them grace.

00:54:35.000 And the ultimate grace is Jesus Christ, right?

00:54:37.000 And then, once you start drinking from the streams of liberty, it will bring you to Christ.

00:54:41.000 So, if someone is really, really, here's what I found: I've spent a lot of time around intellectuals, people super smarter than me, and wiser than me, they're the most humble people when it comes to learning.

00:54:50.000 They are the least confident.

00:54:52.000 In fact, if you find a cocky intellectual, you should run the other way.

00:54:58.000 In fact, the people that take learning super seriously realize how little they actually know, how little they actually remember, and that there is a God, and we are not him.

00:55:08.000 The most important religious distinction in the country is not even Christian or Jewish or Christian or secular.

00:55:15.000 It's do you believe that there is a God, and do you believe you are him or not?

00:55:21.000 That's the most important two questions that you can answer.

00:55:24.000 And unfortunately, we have now put over 100 million kids through a broken education system in just the last couple of years, 100 million kids that do this completely wrong.

00:55:36.000 And now we are reaping the political consequences as a result.

00:55:40.000 Next question over here.

00:55:41.000 Hi, Charlie.

00:55:42.000 My name is Vicki.

00:55:43.000 I start every morning with you in my ear.

00:55:46.000 Anybody here that hasn't listened to Thought Crime, you have, you have to weekly listen to Thought Crime.

00:55:53.000 Anyway, that's my plug.

00:55:55.000 So Guatemala sent a letter to Greg Abbott a few weeks ago about all of their missing children.

00:56:06.000 It was articulated in the letter, all of the NGOs, that they've done all.

00:56:11.000 I'm embarrassed.

00:56:11.000 I'm ashamed because it's my country.

00:56:14.000 And they've articulated how their children are going missing and that they're coming into America.

00:56:22.000 Is anybody, I've heard nothing.

00:56:24.000 I've had my ear to the ground trying to figure out if anybody's doing anything.

00:56:29.000 And I thought maybe you would know.

00:56:30.000 That's a great point.

00:56:31.000 I need to do a segment on it, so I will.

00:56:33.000 Thank you for reminding me.

00:56:34.000 So let me kind of add context.

00:56:36.000 First of all, the book is Unprotected Class.

00:56:37.000 I meant to answer your question.

00:56:38.000 The earlier book is Unprotected Class by Jeremy Carl.

00:56:42.000 So the answer is very few people.

00:56:43.000 Laura Logan is trying to do some work on this topic.

00:56:46.000 I need to just explain what her question was in layman's terms.

00:56:50.000 It was a great question, which is a component of the open southern border are at the minimum thousands, probably tens of thousands of child sex slaves that are brought into the country and used as toys for cartel members and for rich people that purchase them as sex slaves.

00:57:08.000 Just a fact, right?

00:57:10.000 And so you go to, if you've never been to the southern border, I don't recommend it, but if you really don't believe me, you can go down to any one of the sectors and you will see fighting-age males with three girls that are 11, 12, and 13.

00:57:25.000 And they'll say, oh, these are my daughters or nieces and nephews.

00:57:28.000 The Biden regime has said no more DNA testing.

00:57:32.000 They got rid of all DNA testing.

00:57:34.000 So understanding DNA testing takes 90 seconds.

00:57:38.000 90 seconds.

00:57:39.000 Swab, swab, swab, machine.

00:57:42.000 We have amazing technology.

00:57:44.000 They've gotten rid of it all.

00:57:45.000 So as long as they claim they're the family, he can enter in as under asylum.

00:57:49.000 So he enters with his sex slaves and he goes to Houston or Atlanta. 0.75

00:57:53.000 And if I am bothering you, I hope I'm bothering you because we kind of act so pridefully that we got rid of slavery in this country.

00:58:02.000 We never got rid of slavery in this country.

00:58:05.000 There are more slaves being trafficked across the border.

00:58:08.000 Now, there are labor slaves, there are sex slaves. 1.00

00:58:10.000 The sex slave one is the most egregious. 0.65

00:58:13.000 And if you do not believe me, I could point to you every so often.

00:58:17.000 You'll see a story, and there was one about six months ago: huge raid of a home in Houston where there were a huge brothel, and there were 68 girls that were illegally trafficked into the country that were being used as sex slaves all under the age of 18, right?

00:58:30.000 And so, yeah, Joe Biden is helping facilitate and co-sponsor these missing children.

00:58:37.000 And so, Guatemala has come out and they're like, hey, we have all these missing kids. 0.95

00:58:42.000 Do you know where they are?

00:58:43.000 Because we have reason to believe they've been trafficked through the interior of the Central American Triangle of Mexico into the country.

00:58:50.000 And Biden doesn't even respond, right?

00:58:53.000 And there are a lot of reasons for this, but if you're not convinced that the southern border is a spiritual issue, I don't know what to tell you.

00:59:00.000 And honestly, shame, shame, shame on the Christian community for the continued silence of our pastors on the southern border while this continues.

00:59:15.000 Hey, Charlie, my name is Max.

00:59:17.000 I'm a student at the University of North Dakota just about an hour up.

00:59:20.000 Yeah, how many UND fans in here?

00:59:23.000 Is that Grant Forks, right?

00:59:24.000 Yeah, Grant Forks.

00:59:26.000 And so I'm a conservative student who's part of like student government.

00:59:30.000 I'm running for the State Board of Higher Education for the state of North Dakota.

00:59:34.000 But what I found is there's a lot of students on our campuses that are conservative.

00:59:37.000 Like the vast majority of the students are conservative.

00:59:39.000 But every one of the students that are in leaders or positions of leadership are all leftists.

00:59:44.000 Or like I'm the only person that ran for the state board that's a conservative.

00:59:50.000 And so in a climate that's dominated by Republicans and conservatives, how can someone like me motivate students on my campus to get more involved like I have and spread the ideals?

01:00:01.000 So this is a really important question.

01:00:03.000 And it is probably unique some ways to North Dakota, but not really, which is you say most of the kids you talk to are conservative.

01:00:10.000 When you fill in a college campus, that's not exactly the shared experience of every campus.

01:00:14.000 But understand this.

01:00:16.000 I'm not shocked that the conservative kids don't want to get involved in student government.

01:00:21.000 Because for us, politics and government is not the greatest good.

01:00:27.000 Friends are more important than government.

01:00:29.000 They are.

01:00:29.000 They should be.

01:00:30.000 Family.

01:00:31.000 Church.

01:00:32.000 Even work.

01:00:33.000 Government should be a sideshow that we don't think about, that doesn't get in our way and does their simple tasks.

01:00:41.000 And we don't have to talk about politics all day, every day.

01:00:44.000 But we become politics obsessed because government has broke the contract.

01:00:50.000 Because government is doing things it shouldn't do and is not doing things it should do.

01:00:54.000 For example, government is locking January 6th defendants into gulags in pretrial detention because they prayed a silent prayer or Granny's going to jail and they're not securing the border. 0.74

01:01:08.000 So that involves the politics.

01:01:10.000 But for the left-wingers, this is their church.

01:01:14.000 This is their meaning.

01:01:16.000 Politics gives them the same sort of satisfaction that you might get from leading a small group Bible study or bringing someone to the Lord or getting married.

01:01:28.000 For them, government and politics is everything because the state is God.

01:01:34.000 And so we're always going to be having an uphill battle.

01:01:36.000 And that's why Turning Point is so important is because we argue we have TPUSA Faith, which is a major pastor's project.

01:01:42.000 Woo, geez.

01:01:43.000 We just had a huge event, by the way, this weekend.

01:01:47.000 Where was that event?

01:01:48.000 Somebody from Bismarck.

01:01:49.000 I was told it went very, very well.

01:01:51.000 We had a TPUSA faith event at Bismarck.

01:01:54.000 And our role in the churches in high school and college is that we say, we know you don't like government and you don't care about government, but if you don't fight, government is going to care about you.

01:02:05.000 And I wish we had the country we grew up in where we didn't have to think about politics all the time, but it's interfering with us.

01:02:09.000 So stay involved with Turning Point.

01:02:11.000 Happy to help you out and give it up for this young man for wanting to make North Dakota a better state.

01:02:21.000 Hi, Charlie.

01:02:23.000 My name is Molly, and my question is in regards to the church.

01:02:27.000 You touched on the importance of the Ten Commandments.

01:02:31.000 If we could just get to a place where we could look back at the Ten Commandments, things such as abortion, when we look at the Ten Commandments, thou shalt not kill, and bring that into the church.

01:02:41.000 What do you believe, when you look at the local church here in the community of Fargo, should the church's role be in speaking out against these issues that are deemed political but are actually very spiritual?

01:02:54.000 Yeah, so great question.

01:02:55.000 This is one of my big issues and concerns, and it's been a passion project of mine.

01:02:59.000 So it doesn't matter what Charlie Kirk thinks.

01:03:01.000 It matters what the Bible says.

01:03:02.000 So I'm only going to tell you what the Bible says, and that's what churches should do.

01:03:06.000 So first and foremost, let's just look at the landscape.

01:03:09.000 Secularism is ascendant and is now the dominant religious view in the country.

01:03:13.000 Not believing in God is now more popular than believing in God.

01:03:17.000 That is a failure of the church, a failure of modern Christianity. 0.98

01:03:20.000 Secondly, we are seeing the tragedy of secularism with transgenderism, abortion, queer theory, critical race theory. 0.71

01:03:27.000 These are pseudo-fabricated religions that fill the place. 0.99

01:03:32.000 So if you believe that there is only air above us and ground below us, there's no heaven or hell, you're going to create your own fake God, the God of climate change or environmentalism or earth worship, the God of anti-racism or the God of self.

01:03:47.000 I can do whatever I want to do whenever I want to do it because that's how I want to do it.

01:03:50.000 And we play into that one way too often, by the way, in the West.

01:03:53.000 And the church has said, well, I don't want to be political.

01:03:56.000 We just do the gospel.

01:03:57.000 What an unbiblical approach that the church has been taking.

01:04:01.000 And I'm going to prove it to you, okay?

01:04:03.000 The church, as articulated in almost every single one of the 66 books of the Bible, is first and foremost, we must recognize that there is no separation of morality and state.

01:04:17.000 So they will say, well, there's separation of church and state.

01:04:19.000 First of all, that's not true.

01:04:20.000 It's not in the Constitution.

01:04:22.000 That was a single letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury Baptist Convention, assuring that the government would not come after the state.

01:04:28.000 However, let's just grant that as a premise, that we're not going to have a national church or a national religion.

01:04:33.000 Wherever does it say there should be a separation of morality and state?

01:04:37.000 Every single law that is passed tries to do good.

01:04:42.000 The question is, what is good?

01:04:44.000 And only the church holds the answer to that.

01:04:47.000 So when the church goes silent on morality, goes silent on what is good or evil, right or wrong, infant or adult, we are then saying the distinctions or the moral order that God has created with his perfect and pleasing will is not important because the church wanted to be popular instead of biblical.

01:05:07.000 And the church over the last 30 years was more interested in bigger buildings, bigger budgets, and more baptisms.

01:05:15.000 They ignored the Great Commission, as Jesus said, go make disciples of all nations.

01:05:21.000 He did not say go make converts of all nations.

01:05:24.000 Discipleship is hard.

01:05:25.000 Discipleship is deep.

01:05:27.000 Discipleship takes time.

01:05:28.000 Discipleship is nurturing a plant that will grow that you will not even see when you die go to its full capacity.

01:05:36.000 So what does the Bible say?

01:05:37.000 First and foremost, we must be counselors to the king.

01:05:41.000 The biblical role of politics is that we must counsel the king for moral and righteous purposes.

01:05:48.000 Daniel, Esther, Mordecai, Nehemiah, Jeremiah, Joseph, they were all counselors to secular government for God's purposes.

01:05:56.000 Secondly, Jeremiah 29, 7, it says, demand the welfare of the nation that you are in because your welfare is tied to your nation's welfare.

01:06:04.000 That is an explicit teaching that God tells you to care about your nation, your community, and what's happening around you.

01:06:11.000 Thirdly, my favorite verse, Psalm 97, 10, which in the Hebrew is done in the command form.

01:06:19.000 If you love God, you must hate evil.

01:06:24.000 How many American churches are actively even talking about what evil is, talking about what sin is, let alone hating evil.

01:06:34.000 Final point, and I could go on from this, which is that the church must shape culture, but unfortunately, the culture has been shaping the church.

01:06:43.000 Is that the church needs to be salt and light, as Christ our Lord said.

01:06:48.000 What do salt and light have in common?

01:06:50.000 They change the environments they come in contact with.

01:06:54.000 They'll make Fargo more Christian. 0.90

01:06:57.000 That does not happen.

01:06:58.000 They'll make Fargo more glorifying to God's perfect and pleasing will.

01:07:03.000 So how do we do that?

01:07:04.000 That means there is a role for Christians to run for government and for churches to express political opinions explicitly and say that this party believes that, this party believes that, vote this way and not this way.

01:07:17.000 You might say, well, what about the Johnson Amendment?

01:07:19.000 Happy to get into that.

01:07:20.000 That's kind of a wonky question.

01:07:21.000 Here's the point.

01:07:22.000 If you are worried about losing your 501 status as a pastor, you should not be a pastor because you fear the IRS more than the government.

01:07:32.000 We have pastors.

01:07:35.000 We have pastors that have a far bigger wardrobe budget than a book budget.

01:07:42.000 We have pastors that think church is a rock concert with nice coffee and organized parking.

01:07:49.000 When we need a hot gospel, we need the law will bring you to Christ. 0.91

01:07:56.000 What did I say earlier?

01:07:57.000 Law to the proud, grace to the humble.

01:07:59.000 How can you teach salvation if people do not know what they're saved from?

01:08:03.000 You cannot teach redemption if you do not know sin.

01:08:07.000 You're just taught, you're just then teaching a best help seminar to a generation to say, hey, Jesus will increase your 401k and Jesus will make sure you get that next job.

01:08:16.000 That is not true.

01:08:17.000 Your life may materially improve if you invoke God's perfect teachings into your life.

01:08:22.000 Maybe.

01:08:23.000 That doesn't make you as if tragedy won't hit you and that makes converts not become disciples long term.

01:08:28.000 So what should the church do?

01:08:30.000 The church should be salt and light.

01:08:31.000 They should be explicitly biblical in all of its stands, which is number one, we're never going to allow the church to be called non-essential again when weed dispensaries, liquor stores, and maintenance stores are allowed to remain open and the church is closed.

01:08:42.000 Number two, life begins at conception with no exceptions and we are going to be pro-life through and through.

01:08:50.000 And number three, that God created male and female with certain distinctions and we stand against the transgenderism, which is an ideology from the pit of hell that destroyed God's perfect distinctions that he set up in his word. 1.00

01:09:07.000 And that's the short answer, by the way.

01:09:09.000 So, all right, we'll go about 10 more minutes, right, Scott?

01:09:12.000 Yes, sir.

01:09:13.000 Hi, Charlie.

01:09:14.000 My name is Lexi.

01:09:16.000 Huge fan.

01:09:17.000 I wanted to reflect back on something you said earlier in your talk about the hyper-feminist culture and how it is harming and angering young men in our society, especially in the college environment.

01:09:29.000 My question is: as a woman who does not align with modern feminist concepts, I guess, how would you, what is your advice for those of us that are trying to fight against modern feminist culture and trying to restore proper balance between men and women and not this equality that's a great question?

01:09:48.000 Thank you for that.

01:09:49.000 And by the way, if modern feminists spend as much time hating men as instead of doing that, they should just like, I don't know, stop men who think they are women from coming into their locker rooms, country would be a much better place. 1.00

01:10:03.000 But anyway, it's so funny to me.

01:10:05.000 They're like, we hate men unless you think you're a woman and you're one of us.

01:10:08.000 I'm like, what is that all about?

01:10:10.000 It's very bizarre, very weird.

01:10:12.000 I still haven't figured that out.

01:10:13.000 I've asked a lot of great question.

01:10:16.000 What can you do?

01:10:17.000 Well, first and foremost, you have to live out the micro, which is look for a serious marriage partner as early as possible.

01:10:23.000 Try to get married as early as possible, have a ton of kids.

01:10:26.000 Now, parents don't like when I say this, which because that's why you're also responsible for the declining fertility rate. 0.99

01:10:30.000 Parents who say this, it's very funny.

01:10:32.000 Parents are like, don't tell my kid to get married too young.

01:10:34.000 I was like, do you want grandkids?

01:10:36.000 And they're like, oh, yeah.

01:10:37.000 I said, well, okay, if you wait till over 30, it's a 50-50 chance.

01:10:41.000 And they're like, what do you mean?

01:10:42.000 I was like, you realize it's not a sure thing, first of all, with fertility rates and the garbage that we're eating and with the vaccines and with all this nonsense that we have, that your kids will even be able to have children.

01:10:51.000 Okay?

01:10:52.000 Secondly, are they going to be able to find a partner over 30?

01:10:55.000 It's all guaranteed.

01:10:56.000 So why have we said to stop getting married when we've traditionally always done it?

01:11:02.000 Like, why are we trying to micromanage to go like build a big corporate career so you can have like a nice apartment, be a corporate partner, and like have a bunch of cats?

01:11:11.000 Like, I don't understand, like, why that is exactly appealing to people.

01:11:15.000 And finally, you need to speak out against these feminists and be like, no, we need strong men. 1.00

01:11:20.000 We want to see this masculine movement restore men. 0.98

01:11:24.000 There are estimates, estimates, estimates.

01:11:26.000 5 million men that have just checked out of society. 0.84

01:11:30.000 They're basically living their parents.

01:11:31.000 They're not working.

01:11:32.000 They're not dating.

01:11:33.000 They're not doing anything.

01:11:34.000 They've just checked out of society. 0.52

01:11:35.000 We call them drifters.

01:11:37.000 You guys might know some, by the way.

01:11:39.000 And you're all nodding your heads.

01:11:41.000 We don't have that same number for women. 1.00

01:11:43.000 Estimates are there's about 300,000 drifter women. 1.00

01:11:47.000 I want you to think about that.

01:11:49.000 But 5 million men that have just checked out of the dating pool, checked out a working, and they're done.

01:11:54.000 Video games, maybe a little cryptocurrency, and a lot of Uber Eats and weed.

01:12:02.000 And that's really troubling everybody.

01:12:06.000 And you can half blame them.

01:12:10.000 I would, you know, I think they need a male role bottle to scream at them in the face, but their excuse is, what's the point?

01:12:17.000 To go, you know, into a dating pool where the women don't want to marry and they're not serious about it, where the entire society is rigged against men. 1.00

01:12:25.000 I don't think those are good excuses, but they're all individually making that decision as a collective.

01:12:30.000 It's very, very troubling.

01:12:31.000 Okay.

01:12:31.000 Yeah, I hope that answers your question.

01:12:33.000 Next question.

01:12:34.000 Right here.

01:12:34.000 Okay.

01:12:37.000 Thank you.

01:12:40.000 My name's Marilyn and unfortunately I'm from across the border in Moorhead.

01:12:44.000 And we're like a little blue polka dot with a lot of red around us.

01:12:49.000 And as hard as we've tried, we've hyped, tried to get candidates because we just need one candidate that's our representative as an activist that's like believes in abortion till the whole nine months and the whole the whole thing.

01:13:04.000 But my question today is I'm interested in helping or to find the turning point chapter in Concordia, which is the college over there, MSUM, Rasmussen College.

01:13:17.000 And I've even thought if I could find like one or two kids over there to start uniting them, my home is right by the college.

01:13:25.000 And I would like even offer a dinner so that we could have some kind of social or something to bring the kids in.

01:13:30.000 I love that.

01:13:32.000 Quinn can help you.

01:13:33.000 Okay.

01:13:34.000 That's what I'm hoping for, to find somebody and to get started.

01:13:38.000 She's doing a great job.

01:13:39.000 She can help you out.

01:13:40.000 Thank you.

01:13:41.000 Excellent.

01:13:42.000 Hi, Charlie.

01:13:43.000 I'm the president of the Turning Point Chapter here over at NBSU.

01:13:51.000 I was just wondering, it's become more of a prevalent issue lately, and I've heard several Republican politicians and conservative speakers and stuff like that come out in support of IVF and surrogacy and say that it's a good thing and that we should not make it illegal and stuff like that.

01:14:09.000 And personally, I think it's a great evil.

01:14:11.000 It's a great atrocity.

01:14:13.000 I was just wondering what are your thoughts on it, and do you think a conservative can reasonably have a pro-IVF position and be pro-life?

01:14:22.000 And is this something that we can start talking about more as conservatives?

01:14:26.000 Great question.

01:14:26.000 Are you Catholic?

01:14:28.000 Of course you are.

01:14:28.000 Yeah.

01:14:29.000 Yeah.

01:14:29.000 So a very Catholic question.

01:14:30.000 And I love the question, by the way, because you're coming out from a great place.

01:14:33.000 But an evangelical would never, ever ask that question.

01:14:36.000 So, and I mean that as loving as possible.

01:14:38.000 So just everyone understands in Catholic, it's Catholic teaching, IVF is akin to murder.

01:14:43.000 So let's go through exactly what it is.

01:14:44.000 It's in vitro fertilization where sperm and an egg are put together in a laboratory and then they are put into utero, hoping that it will attach to the uterine wall and then gestation will begin.

01:14:56.000 Okay?

01:14:57.000 So, without getting too deep into it, politically, the position is very clear, which is like not only does 90% of the country, but like 90% of Republicans are pro-IVF, right?

01:15:07.000 But I'm going to get to my position, which is that I, again, it's very unpopular.

01:15:12.000 I don't think that fertilized embryos should ever be destroyed.

01:15:14.000 Number one, because I believe that they are life at conception.

01:15:18.000 Number two, there is a way to do IVF, just very low likelihood of it working, which is you only do one embryo at a time, implanted at a time.

01:15:26.000 Because the issue with IVF is you destroy a lot of the embryos and you put a lot of embryos into utero that will not survive.

01:15:34.000 That's why you get a lot of twins and triplets. 0.96

01:15:36.000 I will tell you, though, I'm morally conflicted on it because some of my best friends and changemakers for Christ and for patriotism are IVF babies.

01:15:46.000 So it's just hard for me to square that.

01:15:49.000 So not even sure how to go about that legislatively.

01:15:53.000 Love your enthusiasm.

01:15:54.000 I don't know if I'd call it a great evil.

01:15:56.000 I would say, though, that if you are intentionally destroying human life, that is a great evil, right?

01:16:02.000 And I sympathize a little bit with some of the parents that do it because I think they're different than a woman who walks into an abortion clinic. 0.98

01:16:11.000 And hear me out, which a woman who, because I do believe intention matters with this.

01:16:15.000 A woman who walks into an abortion clinic wants nothing more than a baby to go away. 1.00

01:16:20.000 A couple that walks into an IVF clinic is praying for a baby to come, please, from the heavens.

01:16:26.000 So I think that intention gives us some mercy for that family that's trying to do that.

01:16:32.000 With that being said, I think that if you want to be consistent, you say that it's done one fertilized egg at a time.

01:16:38.000 You would effectively end IVF in the country if that's the case because you need to kind of have mass fertilization. 0.98

01:16:42.000 Hope that answers your question.

01:16:44.000 But I got, it's very funny.

01:16:46.000 I did a whole IVF show because I do believe that we should be pro-IVF for the reasons that I mentioned.

01:16:51.000 However, I got like 1% of hate emails, hate, from Catholics. 0.98

01:16:56.000 And they were so mad at me.

01:16:57.000 So we can disagree on it.

01:16:59.000 And I love Catholics and they make the world a better place.

01:17:01.000 I mean that.

01:17:02.000 Right, Scott?

01:17:04.000 Can't argue with that.

01:17:05.000 Come home to Rome.

01:17:06.000 Last question right here.

01:17:07.000 Yes, sir.

01:17:09.000 Thank you for being here, Charlie.

01:17:10.000 I'm a huge fan and a huge fan of the flag.

01:17:13.000 I have a declaration and then a question quickly.

01:17:16.000 Ephesians 6:12.

01:17:18.000 For our struggles, it's not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

01:17:31.000 If we don't know who our enemy is, what chance do we have?

01:17:34.000 So, Christians, believers, let's stand up, pray up, speak up.

01:17:39.000 The spirit of the Antichrist is here.

01:17:41.000 It's infiltered every institution that we have.

01:17:44.000 Question: Did you hear that they're trying to enact the Leahy Act?

01:17:49.000 My wife heard today when I was making a living that they want to declare Israel a terrorist state.

01:17:56.000 I bet they are trying to.

01:17:58.000 That's an awful idea.

01:17:59.000 I stand with Israel, and I hope you guys do too.

01:18:01.000 I think it's reprehensible what's happening to them.

01:18:04.000 And I love that you said, because you're technically spot on, the spirit of the Antichrist, because I think people get too caught up as the Antichrist is a person, which is a thing, but the spirit is the precursor to the person.

01:18:18.000 So I think that's great.

01:18:20.000 I also just want to caution the audience: do not get too deep into trying to find the time, date, or hour of Christ's return.

01:18:28.000 Instead, glorify God in all that you do, and Christ will return, okay?

01:18:33.000 And so be on the welcoming committee, not the planning committee, for Christ's return, okay?

01:18:41.000 Final point I'll make.

01:18:42.000 Is that okay, Scott?

01:18:42.000 One final thing, which is I want to thank you guys for supporting Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action.

01:18:48.000 I want to thank you for supporting Scott and Freedom Matters.

01:18:51.000 It's a wonderful organization.

01:18:52.000 You guys have to keep on fighting here in North Dakota.

01:18:55.000 It is so important.

01:18:56.000 I want to just say a plug.

01:18:58.000 If you're not subscribed to our podcast, you can listen to, I don't know if you know this, you can listen to all three hours of radio.

01:19:02.000 You might hear a snippet on the flag.

01:19:04.000 If you want to hear all the shows and the interviews in its totality, you guys can open up your podcast app and get the Charlie Kirk show.

01:19:12.000 And you can get Thought Crime on there too, which doesn't air on radio, which is a lot of fun.

01:19:15.000 So you guys can do that tonight if you want.

01:19:17.000 I highly recommend it.

01:19:18.000 My final charge for you guys is this: North Dakota is a conservative state, but you guys are not immune to the social contagions or the Marxism that's coming here.

01:19:28.000 You need to contest for the welfare of the nation that you are in.

01:19:32.000 Jeremiah 29, 7.

01:19:33.000 Be that salt and light.

01:19:35.000 Run for office.

01:19:36.000 Pray for your leaders.

01:19:37.000 Fast when appropriate.

01:19:39.000 And you cannot give up.

01:19:41.000 The way that they win is our surrender.

01:19:44.000 Through mass demoralization, the Marxists win.

01:19:48.000 With our resolve, our grittiness, and hustle, I believe that we'll be ultimately successful, hopefully in November or even beyond, because truth will prevail and lies will collapse.

01:19:59.000 God bless you guys.

01:20:00.000 Thank you so much.

01:20:00.000 Thanks so much for listening.
