00:00:03.000 My name is Charlie Kirk.
00:00:05.000 I run the largest pro American student organization in the country fighting for the future of our republic.
00:00:11.000 My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth.
00:00:14.000 If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable.
00:00:19.000 But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful.
00:00:24.000 College is a scam, everybody.
00:00:26.000 You got to stop sending your kids to college.
00:00:27.000 You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible.
00:00:31.000 Go start a Turning Point USA college chapter.
00:00:33.000 Go start a turning point USA high school chapter.
00:00:35.000 Go find out how your church can get involved.
00:00:37.000 Sign up and become an activist.
00:00:39.000 I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade.
00:00:41.000 Most important decision I ever made in my life.
00:00:44.000 And I encourage you to do the same.
00:00:45.000 Here I am.
00:00:46.000 Lord, use me.
00:00:48.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:49.000 Here we go.

00:01:18.000 Welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:01:19.000 It's Monday, June 8th, 2026.
00:01:22.000 We are here in Phoenix, Arizona at the Y Refi Studio.
00:01:26.000 Honored to be with you all.
00:01:27.000 How are we doing, Blake?
00:01:27.000 Oh, we're doing amazing.
00:01:28.000 You know, I'm just bummed that you were not with us at WLS.
00:01:32.000 Yeah, I.
00:01:33.000 So.
00:01:34.000 You missed it?
00:01:35.000 Yeah.
00:01:36.000 It was a great event.
00:01:37.000 Let me just tell you. 1.00
00:01:39.000 I'm like, I don't want to crash the women's event. 1.00
00:01:40.000 It's kind of weird. 1.00
00:01:41.000 I'm actually glad you didn't come, but we're trying to get you hitched anyways.
00:01:44.000 Maybe it's a terrible thing.
00:01:45.000 It would be too straight. 1.00
00:01:47.000 But the women have their women's event. 1.00
00:01:48.000 You've got to find your own way here. 1.00
00:01:49.000 You can't be going to WLS.
00:01:51.000 All right, listen, here's the thing.
00:01:53.000 I am a fish out of water at that event, too.
00:01:55.000 I mean, it's 3,000, so it's the biggest women's leadership summit that we've had.
00:02:00.000 It was in San Antonio.
00:02:02.000 It was amazing.
00:02:03.000 Next year, it's going to be actually in Florida, in Palm Beach, West Palm Beach.
00:02:06.000 But it was amazing.
00:02:07.000 It was amazing to see this many young women out and.
00:02:11.000 It's basically the things they were saying too, by the way.
00:02:13.000 It's like none of this boss babe stuff, none of this, you know, freeze your egg stuff.
00:02:19.000 I mean, it's all, these are women that are really going to, I think, be the future of the country in so many ways because they want to have families.
00:02:28.000 They want to have lots of kids. 0.96
00:02:29.000 They want to get married. 1.00
00:02:30.000 They'll be the future, unlike the feminist alternative that literally won't be.
00:02:34.000 They don't have kids. 1.00
00:02:35.000 They won't breed.
00:02:36.000 We're going to outbreed them, and that's a good thing.
00:02:38.000 Children are a blessing.
00:02:39.000 By the way, I don't know if you saw, but JD Vance had that.
00:02:43.000 Great excerpt from his book in the Wall Street Journal where he was talking about how Erica, after Charlie was killed, you know, lamented they only had two kids.
00:02:51.000 And then that encouraged and convinced Usha to have their fourth child.
00:02:56.000 That's amazing.
00:02:56.000 Yeah.
00:02:57.000 So, anyways, the point is children are a blessing. 0.99
00:03:00.000 People that talk about it like we say this because we just want women to be birthing factories and all that stuff. 0.99
00:03:06.000 It's garbage. 0.99
00:03:06.000 We want women to be happy, productive, fulfilled. 0.99
00:03:10.000 We believe there's a design for creation.
00:03:12.000 And having kids is a beautiful, beautiful thing.
00:03:14.000 We should celebrate it.
00:03:15.000 And not stigmatize it.
00:03:16.000 Too much of our culture has stigmatized it. 1.00
00:03:18.000 Now, does that mean that women can't do whatever they want? 1.00
00:03:20.000 No, of course they can do whatever they want. 1.00
00:03:21.000 It's still America.
00:03:22.000 Do whatever you want.
00:03:23.000 But it's what the values that we prioritize and that we encourage and we celebrate.
00:03:27.000 That's all it is.
00:03:28.000 We celebrate families, we celebrate beautiful, beautiful children.
00:03:32.000 And gosh, man, there's a lot of them, a lot of young, young moms there.
00:03:35.000 It was about two thirds of it were students.
00:03:37.000 Two thirds of it were students.
00:03:39.000 About a third of it was like young moms.
00:03:40.000 So it was a great mix.
00:03:42.000 We got some great clips later. 0.82
00:03:43.000 How about we play one of those young moms? 1.00
00:03:45.000 Riley Gaines was up there and she talked about becoming a parent. 1.00
00:03:49.000 Let's get clip 24.
00:03:50.000 Now that I'm raising a daughter in this world that sells fragility and weakness and stick thin as the beauty standard, I want her to know that strong is beautiful.
00:04:05.000 Yeah, well, Riley, I don't know if you've ever been around Riley. 0.62
00:04:08.000 She did the Weeds of the Interview at Amfest.
00:04:09.000 That's right. 0.93
00:04:10.000 It looks like she can bench press you. 1.00
00:04:13.000 It was very intimidating. 1.00
00:04:14.000 She said, a lot of women have tough childbirths. 1.00
00:04:17.000 I want to have another kid right away. 0.92
00:04:17.000 Mine was really easy. 0.92
00:04:18.000 I'm like, okay, that's not necessarily the most common thing, but.
00:04:22.000 God bless her.
00:04:22.000 Let's hope she was a kid right away.
00:04:24.000 Erica did a phenomenal job. 1.00
00:04:25.000 Yes, she did. 1.00
00:04:26.000 She just did so much, so many one liners that went viral. 0.78
00:04:30.000 I mean, I could literally pick any of these. 0.99
00:04:32.000 Let's go ahead and pick 25.
00:04:34.000 When you set out to pursue God's vision for your life, know that He will show up, He will provide, and He will honor your obedience to His calling.
00:04:48.000 The world has a tendency to overcomplicate the most beautiful and simple things in this world. 0.87
00:04:57.000 But to the women in this room who are Christian, it's actually quite simple. 0.87
00:05:06.000 The world will say, Your life belongs to you. 1.00
00:05:11.000 It does not.
00:05:13.000 Your life belongs to Christ.
00:05:16.000 Amen. 0.98
00:05:16.000 And then she goes in on the gender this, I don't know what you'd want to call it, this Gen Z gender war. 0.98
00:05:21.000 I think one of the most important things Erica is doing and can do when she communicates and gives speeches is bring together.
00:05:29.000 The men and the women.
00:05:29.000 Yeah, we can talk so much about how they've grown apart, but they have to live together.
00:05:33.000 We literally have to live together.
00:05:35.000 We need each other.
00:05:35.000 It's true.
00:05:36.000 Let's go ahead and try cut 26.
00:05:39.000 When both men and women in society faithfully carry their responsibilities with integrity and honor, that's how societies flourish and how great civilizations are sustained.
00:05:53.000 And she continues on 27.
00:05:55.000 We weren't created to be alone.
00:06:00.000 Scripture reminds us that men and women.
00:06:03.000 We're designed to depend on one another, to support one another, to build together.
00:06:11.000 That is God's design for us.
00:06:14.000 I want to go back to that first clip we played from Erica because it just really moved me as we were watching it again to just think one of Erica's set a tremendous example over the past 10 months.
00:06:26.000 But one of the best ways she's done so is we know a horrible tragedy has happened to her, one of the worst things that can possibly happen.
00:06:34.000 And she's always been so good at saying, No, God's presence has always been here in my life.
00:06:39.000 I can see how God's will is manifesting through all of this.
00:06:44.000 And I have surrendered myself to God in the same way Charlie did.
00:06:49.000 And that's a model all of us can live by.
00:06:52.000 Well, Kaylee McEnany said something very similar to that.
00:06:56.000 Cut 28.
00:06:57.000 There is a spiritual battle playing out.
00:07:00.000 And Charlie Kirk consistently pointed to the truth, he pointed to light.
00:07:05.000 And I believe there are millions.
00:07:08.000 Who will be in heaven with us, who accepted Jesus Christ as Savior because of the legacy that Charlie left.
00:07:15.000 I believe that.
00:07:17.000 I believe that too, actually.
00:07:19.000 And I see proof of it all the time.
00:07:21.000 I mean, so many of the young women that were at this event were saying similar things to me.
00:07:26.000 They were stopping me, saying, you know, Charlie is why I rededicated myself in my faith.
00:07:32.000 And yeah, go ahead.
00:07:33.000 We got an email while you guys were there.
00:07:36.000 We took a bunch of emails because it was Turning Points anniversary.
00:07:38.000 And we got another email from someone who said, My husband and I were inspired by Charlie to start a family.
00:07:44.000 And if I interpret it right, they're about two months in for their first one.
00:07:48.000 Good, man.
00:07:49.000 Listen, if one of the lasting legacies of Charlie and my eight years I got to spend with Charlie and the show as it continues on is that there are lots of new babies that exist on this planet because of Charlie just hitting that over and over and over.
00:08:07.000 And it's a very weird turning point in the last year.
00:08:09.000 Yeah, I mean, there's babies all over the place.
00:08:11.000 You know, our office basically looks like a childhood.
00:08:14.000 It looks like a nursery.
00:08:15.000 Yeah, there's kids' toys everywhere.
00:08:16.000 Once you get outside the studio, there's like little basketball hoops and little.
00:08:21.000 Kids' tables and all the books.
00:08:23.000 And anyway, so it's great.
00:08:25.000 We love kids, and the whole event was a celebration of that.
00:08:29.000 There was a little bit of leftist craziness, and Savannah Hernandez gave a great comment on this.
00:08:37.000 SOT 22.
00:08:38.000 The fact that we have people outside that were swarming one of our entrances with clear Antifa emblems, wearing Antifa shirts, and chanting that they're Antifa goes to show me that there's a lot of work that still needs to be done.
00:08:52.000 Radical left wing violence needs to be dismantled.
00:08:55.000 It's one of the last things that Charlie talked about before he was taken from us.
00:08:59.000 How serious this issue is.
00:09:01.000 And again, what was happening outside was not peaceful protest.
00:09:05.000 What was happening outside was not the First Amendment.
00:09:08.000 The left wing is not allowed to terrorize us, they are not allowed to silence us, they're not allowed to censor us, and we have to stand up against them every single day.
00:09:18.000 Amen.
00:09:19.000 You know, it's such a white pill, you know, because you see so much antagonism about men and women and feminism and.
00:09:26.000 All this stuff.
00:09:27.000 The women at this event, I just couldn't say enough good things about them.
00:09:31.000 And Savannah said it really well. 1.00
00:09:33.000 There was Antifa outside for briefly, and they were super vile, said all the gross things you can imagine.
00:09:39.000 The cops dealt with them.
00:09:40.000 Good riddance.
00:09:41.000 So this was the San Antonio police clashing with them on the streets outside the event.
00:09:48.000 48.
00:10:06.000 Just a positive little Saturday melee in the streets of.
00:10:12.000 I mean, this is what boggles my mind. 0.91
00:10:13.000 So, you got 3,000 women that are doing, they're having a great time.
00:10:16.000 It's peaceful.
00:10:18.000 It's tranquil.
00:10:19.000 It's exciting.
00:10:20.000 It's everything that you would expect it to be.
00:10:23.000 And they're celebrating their country.
00:10:25.000 They're talking about Maha.
00:10:26.000 They're talking about families.
00:10:28.000 They're talking about health, all this stuff.
00:10:29.000 It's great.
00:10:30.000 There's literally like nothing that intentional.
00:10:32.000 I kind of get, I despise left, but I kind of get them at least showing up to be aggro protesters at a Trump rally.
00:10:38.000 Like, okay, it's the president.
00:10:40.000 He's the leader of the opposing faction.
00:10:42.000 He is actually campaigning. 0.91
00:10:44.000 But to do this at just a turning point event where it's just young women hearing speakers, talking about faith, talking about family, there's something really demented there. 0.97
00:10:53.000 It's really demented.
00:10:54.000 And the dementia or the dementedness gets even worse.
00:10:59.000 And I apologize in advance for showing you this clip, but there is a reason we're going to. 0.96
00:11:04.000 But just to show you how vile and gross these people are and these Antifa thugs.
00:11:11.000 Just how unhuman they tend to be, how they lack any empathy, any humanity. 0.98
00:11:16.000 This is a grown man.
00:11:18.000 He made a costume to resemble Charlie out on the street in front of the women's conference. 0.99
00:11:23.000 And he made a fool of himself. 0.99
00:11:25.000 And it's disgusting, but we're going to show it. 0.99
00:11:27.000 47.
00:11:40.000 So, for those of you who couldn't see that, he was basically lying on the ground to reenact Charlie's assassination.
00:11:47.000 He was wearing the freedom shirt.
00:11:49.000 And he had a head, some sort of paper mache head that was supposed to be Charlie.
00:11:58.000 Anyways, I think the point is that these people are still celebrating Charlie's assassination.
00:12:04.000 They still think it's great.
00:12:06.000 They are gleeful.
00:12:08.000 They gloat.
00:12:09.000 And then they throw it right in our faces.
00:12:12.000 That's what we're up against.
00:12:13.000 That's how evil this ideology, this movement is, that they are proud of what happened to Charlie. 0.96
00:12:21.000 That's disgusting. 0.95
00:12:22.000 But we knew that they wanted us dead. 0.99
00:12:24.000 They knew that we knew that they wanted Charlie dead.
00:12:27.000 And in case there's any doubt, there's a living proof right there. 0.89
00:12:33.000 That's how gross it is.
00:12:34.000 Right in front of our Women's Leadership Summit, which again is the most wholesome, patriotic, wonderful.
00:12:43.000 There's nothing that controversial about what's going on.
00:12:46.000 But, you know, I bring that up because, you know, nobody in this audience will be shocked to hear.
00:12:53.000 This is not breaking news that there are those bad actors that have wanted to somehow implicate or cast suspicion around Turning Point in the wake of Charlie's assassination.
00:13:02.000 And a lot of this is really unfortunate because it's been targeted at Charlie's widow, Erica, obviously.
00:13:08.000 And so we decided over the weekend we were going to troll the trolls.
00:13:12.000 There's this video that has become a source of controversy.
00:13:16.000 Not even controversy, just obsession, bizarre people.
00:13:19.000 Yeah, just absurd.
00:13:20.000 I don't even talk about it because I think the whole thing is so lame.
00:13:23.000 They demand overwhelming proof for the idea that Charlie loved his wife and would want his wife to carry on his mission.
00:13:32.000 Yeah.
00:13:32.000 Well, it's something he told all of us.
00:13:35.000 We all knew.
00:13:35.000 We didn't talk about it because we thought Charlie was going to be with us for another 50 plus years.
00:13:39.000 But we all knew, the board knew this was the plan.
00:13:42.000 Whatever.
00:13:42.000 He said it one time in front of a camera at a private event with donors in Aspen.
00:13:47.000 So we just thought, we figured we'd troll the trolls.
00:13:50.000 And you get a little taste of it here, SOT 41.
00:13:52.000 The most important relationship in your life is the one that you have with your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
00:13:59.000 His passion was my passion, and now his mission is my mission.
00:14:02.000 I appoint my wife to run Turning Point USA if something happens to me.
00:14:06.000 Erica would do a great job.
00:14:07.000 All right, so that's the clip.
00:14:09.000 Thank you.
00:14:09.000 Thank you, studio, for bailing me out there.
00:14:11.000 But then, so we knew that it was going to be like, oh, it's AI or it's fake or whatever this.
00:14:17.000 That's what they do.
00:14:18.000 They always move the goalposts here. 0.98
00:14:19.000 And that's why it's a sucker's game to even play this. 0.97
00:14:21.000 But it was really fun to be able to troll the trolls, stuff it in their face, and then watch them predictably melt down when the evidence was shown. 0.98
00:14:31.000 They instantly claimed without any basis whatsoever.
00:14:35.000 That's actually Charlie at ActCon in 2023.
00:14:38.000 Evidence for this?
00:14:39.000 None.
00:14:39.000 Proof for this?
00:14:40.000 None.
00:14:41.000 Like, trivially easy to debunk.
00:14:43.000 The reason we address it, and I actually on social media did as well on X, is because the community note got gamed.
00:14:49.000 They weaponized it.
00:14:50.000 They bombarded it, probably.
00:14:51.000 And so they had so many votes on it that it was, yeah, that's ACCON 2023.
00:14:56.000 Nothing like the clip we showed.
00:14:58.000 Back and forth, back and forth.
00:14:58.000 Yeah, there you go.
00:15:00.000 So we had to address it.
00:15:01.000 So the community note is now gone, I will tell you, thankfully.
00:15:05.000 So now Grok is not misleading people that have legitimate questions.
00:15:08.000 Mission accomplished.
00:15:12.000 We've all been told to eat fruits and vegetables forever, but nobody really explained why.
00:15:17.000 What if I told you that plants have their own nutrition and that it might be better for you than a lot of processed stuff we've added?

00:16:30.000 All right, without further ado, we're welcoming back our good.
00:16:33.000 Friend Raheem Kassam from the nationalpulse.com.
00:16:36.000 Good to see you, Raheem.
00:16:37.000 How you been?
00:16:38.000 It's been too long.
00:16:39.000 Thank you, gents.
00:16:40.000 Always an honor to be on.
00:16:42.000 Hope you're all well.
00:16:42.000 We're doing well.
00:16:43.000 We just had a great weekend in San Antonio.
00:16:45.000 We went through all the clips, all the fun, all the video fun.
00:16:50.000 But we got to turn our attention here, Raheem, to what's going on in Iran, what's going on with Israel, Hezbollah, the strikes going back and forth.
00:17:00.000 President Trump was on with Welker over at NBC.
00:17:03.000 It was a very contentious interview.
00:17:06.000 But here's Trump in his own words, 38.
00:17:10.000 I don't like these endless wars.
00:17:12.000 This is not an endless war.
00:17:13.000 We've been doing this for three months.
00:17:16.000 Much of it has been under the form, a pretty good form of ceasefire.
00:17:19.000 The blockade has been amazing.
00:17:21.000 Our Navy is amazing.
00:17:23.000 Our military is the best in the world.
00:17:25.000 So he's saying, I don't like these forever wars, which is something that we've always sort of baked into the cake with President Trump.
00:17:31.000 But then you've got Iran striking Israel, sending missiles into Israel, Israel striking a, look at that, it's like a petro plant. 0.61
00:17:40.000 In Western Iran. 0.98
00:17:42.000 There's all this Hezbollah stuff. 0.52
00:17:44.000 You know, you are a student of international geopolitics, Rahim. 0.93
00:17:49.000 It's part of the way that you've just your makeup in politics because you have been back and forth across the Atlantic.
00:17:56.000 So, what do you make of this?
00:17:58.000 You know, Trump is telling Israel to stand down.
00:18:00.000 How do you see this playing out over the next days and weeks?
00:18:03.000 Yeah.
00:18:04.000 I think the answer that everybody, you know, here on Capitol Hill, where I'm sitting right now, the answer that everybody gives is very simple.
00:18:12.000 It's a mess.
00:18:13.000 And it's a mess because I think most people recognize that in advance of beginning this operation, there wasn't a lot of forward planning.
00:18:24.000 There was some, but not as much as one might have hoped for or expected.
00:18:28.000 What happens in any given scenario?
00:18:30.000 And the scenario we find ourselves in is one of the few that just simply wasn't war gamed out, especially the failure to bring in European partners.
00:18:40.000 And I don't think it's a failure necessarily on the administration side, I think the European partners themselves.
00:18:45.000 Have to look in the mirror and ask themselves questions about where they've been over the course of this, especially given how many of them were so willing to work with the Obama administration to lift sanctions, to help the Iranians, to try and bring them into the international fold.
00:19:02.000 And then when Trump tries to do something that, you know, given is different and a little bit more sporadic and spur of the moment, they all just sort of washed their hands of international affairs and washed their hands of the region, even though.
00:19:16.000 A lot of them are heavily reliant on what comes through the Strait of Ormus.
00:19:21.000 It seems like an abdication, in a sense, on their part.
00:19:24.000 I mean, you know, even if you don't want to do it, you have to.
00:19:26.000 Realpolitik will slap you in the face with both the front and the back of the hand.
00:19:31.000 And it seems like those slaps just haven't woken any of the longstanding European partners up either.
00:19:37.000 So it's a mess all over. 0.99
00:19:39.000 What I expect to happen from here is just more of the same.
00:19:42.000 I'm afraid the markets won't like it and people won't like the impact that it has and continues to have in their pockets.
00:19:48.000 But in an absence of quote unquote finishing the job, this will just continue to go on.
00:19:57.000 I have a lot of questions over what Netanyahu's goal here is, what his domestic goals are for his own sake.
00:20:06.000 And President Trump has spoken to some of those this weekend, right?
00:20:11.000 Especially the interview with the Financial Times, where he was adamant that he's calling the shots in the region.
00:20:17.000 Regardless, Israel have sort of gone, well, actually, we're going to do what we want anyway, and said, look, we have a right to defend ourselves. 0.75
00:20:24.000 And I think that's perfectly reasonable and rational. 0.61
00:20:27.000 But it just goes to show that there isn't really one key character, one key leader in all of this.
00:20:32.000 And it may take, and I know it will make some people uncomfortable, but it may take some further inducements from the White House to get Israel on board with what the White House now wants.
00:20:45.000 Because, you know, the White House did what Israel wants for the last couple of months.
00:20:49.000 There's no doubt about it.
00:20:50.000 I'm not saying they were led, I'm saying that they found neutral common ground and they did it together, right?
00:20:58.000 Decide whether or not it wants to play a little bit more compromise back.
00:21:02.000 And I'm just, I'm not sure they're there yet.
00:21:04.000 Yeah, I agree.
00:21:05.000 You know, President Trump took to Truth Social.
00:21:07.000 Throw up 136, please.
00:21:11.000 And you'll see President Trump's truth here. 0.67
00:21:13.000 He's saying both sides, Israel and Iran, are looking to do an immediate ceasefire.
00:21:19.000 Final negotiations on peace are proceeding.
00:21:24.000 So, anyways, he's basically willing this ceasefire.
00:21:27.000 He told Axios, okay, they, you think he told the same thing to Fox.
00:21:30.000 He said, listen, okay.
00:21:32.000 Iran shot off a couple missiles.
00:21:33.000 Israel, you shot off a couple missiles.
00:21:35.000 Okay, you know, it's a little fight.
00:21:37.000 Tomorrow we'll be bros again.
00:21:38.000 Everybody put down their arms.
00:21:39.000 It's almost like you can feel President Trump pushing, willing, and you can imagine the private conversations behind the scenes, the phone calls are a little bit more spicy than that.
00:21:49.000 I think he's gotten very used to that back and forth song and dance of these, oh, they shoot off a missile to show that they're serious.
00:21:55.000 Because he's done this with Iran himself several times.
00:21:58.000 Yeah.
00:21:58.000 Yeah.
00:21:59.000 And I think this actually shows President Trump's.
00:22:02.000 Leadership here.
00:22:03.000 I mean, that clip that we started the segment off with, Rahim, I think is the guiding North Star that he doesn't want to do a forever war.
00:22:09.000 This was something I knew, Charlie knew about the president very, very well.
00:22:14.000 Now, listen, Iran was probably the biggest lift that we've seen. 0.69
00:22:17.000 It was the most risky, it was going up against the most populous country of any of these sort of conflicts.
00:22:24.000 So I understand people's reticence, I understand people's skepticism.
00:22:28.000 I've certainly been skeptical of this effort.
00:22:30.000 I thought, you know, you can start a war, but you can't always end one.
00:22:33.000 And that's really the question here.
00:22:35.000 You could get some ink on paper signed.
00:22:38.000 You could even open up the strait, but that's not going to stop some of these rogue elements within Iran that are hardliners that are still vying for power and supremacy in that country from shooting off a couple of missiles, from laying some mines in the strait.
00:22:51.000 I mean, this could just sort of go on for a long time here.
00:22:56.000 I don't see the natural way out.
00:22:58.000 And I think, to your point, that's why it's a mess.
00:23:00.000 But I think Trump is making his intentions very clear and he's sending a signal loud and clear that he's in charge.
00:23:06.000 Whether or not he can get the deal done or not is the question.
00:23:09.000 Yeah, look, there are several things to think about here.
00:23:12.000 You know, the president of the United States could abdicate on this now and just say, look, I've tried.
00:23:17.000 We did what we needed to do.
00:23:19.000 You guys sort it out between yourselves.
00:23:20.000 But he's not doing that, right?
00:23:21.000 He's still trying to play the role of peacemaker, to bring people together.
00:23:26.000 I think that's, you know, it's commendable in its spirit of what he's doing.
00:23:32.000 There are certain levers that he's going to be able to pull, and I think you'll see him pull on them this week that may bring those parties back to the table again.
00:23:42.000 It's not just Israel and Iran, by the way.
00:23:44.000 I mean, you look at the same thing with Russia and Ukraine, bussing these people's heads together and saying, look, we know you don't want to keep. 0.50
00:23:52.000 Killing one another. 0.53
00:23:53.000 We know it's not good for either of your countries, either of your peoples, but are you willing to take the requisite steps to make that happen?
00:24:00.000 The problem is finding that mutual ground is becoming more and more difficult.
00:24:04.000 And I think the normalization, like you say, very hard to end these things.
00:24:09.000 And look, I was against it when it first started, but you also have to be realistic.
00:24:13.000 We're here now.
00:24:14.000 We can't wind the clock back.
00:24:15.000 We can't build time machines.
00:24:17.000 We have to deal with the hand that we're dealt here.
00:24:21.000 And the hand that we're dealt now, that the president has been dealt, Is this intransigence on both sides?
00:24:27.000 And again, not just Israel and Iran, it happens in conflicts all over the world.
00:24:30.000 Intransigence, intransigence.
00:24:32.000 And that comes from normalization.
00:24:34.000 The leaders of those countries are normalizing the state of war for their own two peoples.
00:24:38.000 And that's what you have to break.
00:24:40.000 Early on in this conflict, the idea that the Iranian people would come out on the streets and march on the streets and welcome this change in their government isn't something that's come to fruition.
00:24:51.000 And I think it may be time, again, to call on the Iranian people and just see if there are those forces.
00:24:56.000 Still remain.
00:24:57.000 That was actually my next question for you, Raheem.
00:24:59.000 You're in contact.
00:25:01.000 Some of these guys are in England.
00:25:02.000 Some of them are in the United States.
00:25:03.000 This Iranian diaspora.
00:25:05.000 And they all seem to sort of be very positive when it comes to assessing the state of the Iranian resistance and the potential of an uprising.
00:25:16.000 What are you hearing about that right now?
00:25:18.000 And are they waiting for a cue from Western allies to say now's the time to take to the streets?
00:25:22.000 Or I saw some videos on social media this weekend suggesting that this was already happening organically.
00:25:27.000 Yeah, I think it happens sporadically, but then there's a big crackdown.
00:25:31.000 You know, when you see your friends and your neighbors die or being hauled off by security services, it tends to put the kibosh on it quite quickly.
00:25:39.000 The other thing to mention is, and it's a hard truth, but the people who want this the most are living, as you say, in Europe, in the UK, in the US, in Beverly Hills, whatever.
00:25:49.000 And then the other part of it, the people who wanted it badly enough are dead.
00:25:53.000 You know, they were massacred by the tens of thousands by the regime.
00:25:58.000 Perhaps we need an honest assessment out of the Trump administration right now as to whether or not they estimate that there are the numbers of those resistance fighters still in Iran who could do something like that.
00:26:10.000 We want to know the answer to that.
00:26:11.000 Well, and they're not armed either, Rahim.
00:26:13.000 I mean, there might be some efforts to arm them, but this is one of the reasons we love our Second Amendment.
00:26:19.000 I mean, people talk about the Second Amendment in terms of hunting, in terms of sport shooting.
00:26:25.000 No, no, no.
00:26:25.000 The Second Amendment is about an armed population that can resist tyranny if a government needs.
00:26:31.000 To be handled or pushed back against.
00:26:34.000 So, Raheem, there is so much going on in Europe now.
00:26:38.000 This isn't just staying in the UK, which I think is interesting, but we've gone over it in great detail on the show.
00:26:45.000 Henry Novak was killed in this very tragic way.
00:26:48.000 I mean, it's sort of everything the left wanted George Floyd to be, but upon further inspection, was not.
00:26:53.000 But this kid was actually, he did nothing wrong.
00:26:56.000 He didn't hurl racist insults at his killer.
00:26:59.000 The man was able to hold a Basically, a sword in public when Henry and other native born Brits are not allowed to even carry pepper spray. 0.55
00:27:09.000 And he was killed with this religious exemption murder weapon. 0.54
00:27:13.000 And he said, I can't breathe.
00:27:15.000 And the cops denied it.
00:27:16.000 And the poor guy bled out on the streets.
00:27:19.000 And we didn't hear about this for six months, Raheem.
00:27:21.000 Six months.
00:27:22.000 And then, of course, outrage has ensued.
00:27:25.000 Tell us what's happening on the streets in the UK, but then also beyond.
00:27:29.000 Well, you know, I can't think of this case and even see a picture of Henry Novak, let alone watch that footage again without feeling, you know, angry and disgusted and just let down.
00:27:47.000 You know, a lot of these things that our governments do. 1.00
00:27:51.000 Are very predictable and very dull, very eye rolling, and you sort of just go, oh, you know, stupid. 1.00
00:27:58.000 This is different. 0.99
00:28:00.000 This is the state, the police, being informed that they necessarily must treat people with foreign ethnic backgrounds as more privileged, as with greater sensitivity, and with greater emphasis on their claims than white people.
00:28:22.000 Not just the native British born people, but this is necessarily skin colour that they're talking about that delineates how a police force treats you, not just as you're walking down the street, not when you're being pulled over in a car, but as a life threatening, and as we saw in this case, life ending altercation is happening in real time.
00:28:47.000 So you can imagine, and I'm sure lots of your audience has seen the scenes of what's been going on across the United Kingdom as a result of this.
00:28:56.000 The anger is pouring out into the streets.
00:28:58.000 And I can't blame people for that.
00:29:00.000 Do I hope that there's riots and other people get hurt?
00:29:04.000 Of course not.
00:29:05.000 But the demonstrations, the protests, they're all welcome.
00:29:10.000 They should be welcome.
00:29:11.000 The police have to take a long, hard look at themselves.
00:29:14.000 And more than anything, the guidance that police forces are given, this two tier guidance, needs to come to an end.
00:29:22.000 Not when the next government comes into power.
00:29:26.000 But today, and unfortunately, this Labour government is showing no signs.
00:29:31.000 You know, you saw a two tier police response.
00:29:34.000 You're now seeing a two tier government response.
00:29:37.000 When it was George Floyd, even in the United Kingdom, when it was George Floyd, everybody got on their hands and knees and grovelled for months and years on end.
00:29:45.000 The English Premier League, the Big Soccer League, the players took the knee at the beginning of matches for two years.
00:29:51.000 Have we seen any of that for Henry Novak?
00:29:54.000 We have not.
00:29:55.000 And you're talking about a race action plan that these police.
00:29:58.000 Follow that is to your point, it's intentionally racist against white people.
00:30:02.000 And we've seen other horrifying things.
00:30:04.000 It's come out now that the police in the area, even after they had ample reason to believe that this was a lie, that Novak had done nothing wrong, that they were planning to put out statements suggesting he had been the aggressor because they, you know, they have to tamp down everything in Britain.
00:30:20.000 It feels, Raheem, it feels in Britain like the police have this attitude of we're occupying a country and we have to do whatever is possible to keep.
00:30:29.000 The restive population from having some kind of uprising.
00:30:32.000 The natives will get restless.
00:30:33.000 Yeah, that's right.
00:30:34.000 I mean, all of the thought we've heard over multiculturalism and social cohesion, you know, the likes of three of us have understood what those are all dog whistles for all these years.
00:30:45.000 You know, certainly the man I wrote a book about years ago, Enoch Powell, knew what all of those things were about.
00:30:52.000 Now the British public have woken up to what all those things are about.
00:30:56.000 They are buzzwords, they are weak phrases that are really, really.
00:31:01.000 Meant to suggest actually an anti white supremacy that's going on in Britain right now.
00:31:06.000 That's exactly right. 0.77
00:31:07.000 Well said.
00:31:08.000 Anti white supremacy.
00:31:09.000 Now, I want to get into reform versus restore, okay?
00:31:13.000 So if I look on the internet, I am very much convinced that Nigel Farage is going to cuck out on immigration, and Rupert Lowe is the real hardliner here.
00:31:23.000 And then I saw this video of you, and I had never seen these clips before.
00:31:29.000 31.
00:31:30.000 In fact, Rupert Lowe is actually weaker on a lot of the mass deportation stuff than reform is.
00:31:36.000 The interviews that he's done with Jacob Rees Mogg, the interviews he's done with Spectator and GB News over the last couple of months show that to be the case.
00:31:43.000 So, I don't think intellectually I'm against immigration.
00:31:46.000 I have never said we should deport people who are here legally.
00:31:50.000 That's not something I think we should be talking about.
00:31:53.000 Legal immigration is more difficult, and I've never talked about repatriation.
00:31:56.000 Repatriation is a much more difficult subject.
00:31:59.000 I don't agree with Nigel Farage in saying that all these people should be repatriated.
00:32:04.000 You can't once you've legally accepted people.
00:32:07.000 Okay, okay. 0.91
00:32:07.000 This is all code for deportations, right? 0.91
00:32:10.000 I mean, it's essentially denaturalization.
00:32:12.000 Okay, make sense of it, Raheem.
00:32:14.000 You've got the last two minutes.
00:32:15.000 The floor is all yours.
00:32:17.000 Look, very quickly, because I know we've only got two minutes.
00:32:20.000 Nigel Farage and Rupert Lowe worked together for a long time.
00:32:23.000 There was a big falling out, you know, in internecine party politics.
00:32:29.000 He said this, she said that, whatever, right?
00:32:32.000 Now they're leading two separate parties on the right.
00:32:35.000 Nigel Farage is obviously Mr. Brexit. 0.91
00:32:38.000 He's done this for 30 years now, banging the drum on immigration, banging the drum on the illegals coming over the channel.
00:32:44.000 He himself has been there.
00:32:46.000 He was talking about rape and grooming gangs back in 2012.
00:32:50.000 UKIP, his previous party, ran on it in 2014, pilloried by the establishment, of course, for it, but was one of the first out there as a politician to do it.
00:33:01.000 When Rupert Lowe was kicked out of reform last year, it was the first time he ever spoke about grooming gangs.
00:33:07.000 The first time ever in 2025.
00:33:10.000 And it's made it sort of his little thing now.
00:33:12.000 And that's fine, by the way.
00:33:13.000 I think more voices on a topic like that, better.
00:33:17.000 But I also think running supposedly to the right of Nigel Farage, but you see from those clips, is not really true.
00:33:23.000 And the Spectator has a great article on it as well.
00:33:27.000 And splitting the right wing vote, well, what that means, and we've got a special election coming up on June the 18th in the UK that will bear this out, what that actually means is that the Labour Party are likely to get another five years in power.
00:33:40.000 And if you think Joe Biden flooded the US while he was in office, think about what a far left Labour Party would do if the right cannot come together and agree, hey, listen, There's one party here that has established its role, has polled top in the last 300 polls across the country, is ready for government, has a shadow cabinet, is ready to go with the manifesto.
00:34:04.000 And listen, like I say, I totally understand the people that want harder talk and harder lines on the internet.
00:34:10.000 That's fine, there's a place for it.
00:34:12.000 But when it comes to the voting booth, I'll stick with the reform.
00:34:15.000 Well, we like Nigel.
00:34:16.000 I'm trying to get Nigel on the show here soon.
00:34:19.000 And I think that's going to happen because I think it is terrifying what Labour would do to that country if given five more years.
00:34:26.000 Something's got to be done, Raheem.
00:34:28.000 And we're here to help as much as we can.
00:34:30.000 God bless you, my friend.
00:34:31.000 We'll talk to you soon.
00:34:32.000 Thank you.

00:35:33.000 I'm so excited to have our next guest, Laura Logan.
00:35:36.000 She's an award winning.
00:35:39.000 Journalist in her own right.
00:35:40.000 She does so much good for the cause and she's always highlighting issues and stories that other people miss or they don't understand how incredible the impact could be if left unaddressed.
00:35:50.000 And there is a really heartbreaking, tragic story out of Texas that I want Laura's help to unpack for you.
00:35:57.000 So without further ado, Laura Logan, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:36:00.000 It's good to see you.
00:36:01.000 Thank you so much for having me.
00:36:02.000 Yes, it's so good to see you again.
00:36:04.000 It's been too long, Laura.
00:36:06.000 Yes.
00:36:06.000 You flagged this story for me and I.
00:36:09.000 I did a huge deep dive into it, and it just breaks my heart because I have a three year old daughter, and we've moved to Phoenix after what happened to Charlie, and there's pools everywhere.
00:36:19.000 And Phoenix is like ground zero for little kids drowning in pools.
00:36:23.000 And so tell us the story of what happened with Annalise's camp, please.
00:36:27.000 Well, this was on Memorial Day, and her family had come to visit with family, and I believe it was in the Houston area.
00:36:35.000 And Annalise had been swimming all day, and it was at the end of the day.
00:36:40.000 Her life jacket had been taken off.
00:36:41.000 And you know what it's like as a parent, right?
00:36:43.000 There's tons of family members around, there's lots of activity.
00:36:46.000 And in one instant, that child disappeared.
00:36:51.000 And she was found in the bottom of the pool.
00:36:54.000 I believe it was, well, what we're told is that her 12 year old cousin was the one who jumped in and got her out of the pool.
00:37:01.000 And she was rushed to the Houston campus of Texas Children's Hospital.
00:37:07.000 Everything that I'm telling you is based on the team that's working with the family and also with family members.
00:37:14.000 Them, you know, who is directly involved and present in all of this.
00:37:19.000 And so, just for people to understand, you know, where this is coming from.
00:37:22.000 And then, of course, the medical stuff is coming from the doctors, it's coming from doctors.
00:37:27.000 So, what happens to Annalise is that, you know, she's on a ventilator and she has swelling in the stem of her brain, right? 0.93
00:37:36.000 In her brain stem.
00:37:37.000 And so, this is after within a few hours, I believe it was about 13 hours or something like that, the effort to begin to declare her.
00:37:47.000 Brain dead began.
00:37:49.000 There was a doctor at Texas Children's who said she was brain dead, and the family came under extraordinary pressure.
00:37:56.000 Now, one of the things that I want to point out is that Texas Children's Hospital proudly boasts on their website that they have been first in the nation for pediatric transplants for six consecutive years.
00:38:09.000 And of course, if your child needs a transplant and has benefited from this at Texas Children's, then you will think that that's a great thing.
00:38:16.000 The problem is.
00:38:18.000 That it is worth so much money to the hospital.
00:38:22.000 In fact, there's something called the Milliman Foundation that studies this data.
00:38:27.000 And they actually put out a report in 2025 that showed listen to this for your heart, intestine, kidney, liver, lungs, and pancreas, those are worth over $8 million in billable charges from a hospital for organ transplant.
00:38:43.000 So I'm just pointing out that this little girl, who within a very short amount of time, Is the hospital pushing to declare her brain dead?
00:38:52.000 And this happens to be a hospital that prides itself on being first in the nation for pediatric transplants, right?
00:38:59.000 So, what happens is Annalise's parents go to a judge, they try to get a restraining order, they're trying to, they are Christian, they believe in the sanctity of life, and they believe in their child, and they're not willing to give up.
00:38:59.000 Right.
00:39:11.000 And if you look at neuroscientists in general and neuroscience, I mean, there is a plethora of medical evidence that will support the fact that toddlers have extraordinary neuroplasticity.
00:39:26.000 What does that mean?
00:39:27.000 It means that they're able, their brains are able to come back from things that adults.
00:39:32.000 You know, might not come back from.
00:39:33.000 In fact, one doctor said it best to me, Andrew.
00:39:36.000 I know, I mean, this really tore at my heart.
00:39:39.000 He said, babies are miracle patients.
00:39:42.000 They literally are.
00:39:42.000 Yeah.
00:39:43.000 They're miracle patients.
00:39:45.000 Their ability to restore brain function and recover goes beyond what we can say scientifically.
00:39:52.000 And it is, there are many documented cases of toddlers, like Annalise, she's just two and a half years old, of toddlers going through drownings.
00:40:02.000 Being brain dead and coming back from this.
00:40:04.000 And the one thing that the family is asking for is time.
00:40:09.000 Give her time.
00:40:10.000 This was Memorial Day.
00:40:11.000 This isn't even six weeks ago.
00:40:13.000 This isn't five, four, three, right?
00:40:15.000 This is like around two weeks ago.
00:40:18.000 And so, and Jess's children started pushing them to declare her brain dead.
00:40:23.000 And what they want to do is they went into a court and they got one of these radical progressive judges who gave them the right to perform this brain test.
00:40:32.000 You know, is according to the American Neurological Society or Association, whatever it is that they're called.
00:40:38.000 Well, when you do this brain test, Andrew, you know what happens?
00:40:41.000 So, part of the test involves it's an apnea test.
00:40:45.000 And so, what does that mean?
00:40:46.000 It means taking Annalise off the ventilator.
00:40:49.000 My mother was on a ventilator for over 130 days.
00:40:52.000 If they'd taken her off that ventilator to test her brain function at any time, she would have died.
00:40:59.000 I mean, I've never heard of anything like this.
00:41:00.000 And by taking this child or any patient with neurological issues, right?
00:41:06.000 Which is really an issue of blood and flow and oxygen flow and all the rest of it to the brain, right?
00:41:12.000 Well, when you do that, you run the risk of causing further damage.
00:41:18.000 I mean, they can have heart attacks, their hearts can fail or collapse, and you can kill them. 0.86
00:41:24.000 So, I mean, yes. 0.54
00:41:26.000 Laura, you highlighted this.
00:41:28.000 Somebody responded to your post on social media.
00:41:30.000 I just want to put it up.
00:41:31.000 It's Musy80 said, It took my son three weeks, if you could throw that image up, to come back from drowning.
00:41:38.000 Six weeks we left hospital.
00:41:41.000 All the doctors said he would never make it.
00:41:43.000 He just needed time, all caps, time.
00:41:45.000 Trauma takes time.
00:41:47.000 And that age, they can have the best outcome.
00:41:50.000 So, praying for this family so much.
00:41:52.000 She is Eva.
00:41:53.000 I don't know who he's responding to there, but the point is that here's somebody, same situation as Annalise.
00:41:59.000 It took three weeks to come back from this traumatic brain, you know, oxygen starvation of the brain from a pool drowning incident.
00:42:06.000 And this baby's alive.
00:42:08.000 This baby has a future.
00:42:09.000 That's right.
00:42:11.000 Ken Paxton, Attorney General of Texas, who's running for Senator, has gotten involved in this and has been fighting alongside.
00:42:17.000 Any other details you can tell us from the legal fight that's ensuing?
00:42:20.000 Well, yes.
00:42:21.000 I mean, you're right.
00:42:22.000 The Attorney General, I mean, everyone who's involved cannot say enough about the Attorney General.
00:42:28.000 In fact, he's probably the reason that Annalise's father was not arrested by CPS because the hospital actually was trying to get CPS involved to take action against the parents for fighting for the right of their child.
00:42:43.000 And this is something when people hear me say that, I know there are people all across America who are saying, Yes, they did that to me.
00:42:49.000 They did that to me because between the hospitals and the CPS, these institutions that are supposed to help us, that are supposed to fight for our children, unfortunately are failing our children.
00:43:00.000 And in some cases, like this, I mean, literally killing them, trying to get them killed.
00:43:05.000 And so what has happened is that Texas Children has been very disingenuous.
00:43:10.000 They have put out two statements to try to cover their tracks.
00:43:14.000 And they have been holding on to this child.
00:43:16.000 They don't want to let her go.
00:43:17.000 And they, you know, they put in their original statement.
00:43:19.000 That they called, I don't know, I think they said 100 hospitals.
00:43:23.000 Anyway, it was a large number of hospitals, and that people didn't want to take her.
00:43:27.000 Well, of course not when you call them and you pressure them and you tell them all kinds of things that make them terrified to take on the liability, right?
00:43:36.000 And then when there is a hospital, I don't want to say too much about it because the family is desperately hoping and praying that this hospital, which respects the sanctity of life, will actually take Annalise.
00:43:47.000 But they're also being pressured.
00:43:50.000 And of course, Texas Children's is saying, Look at their equipment versus ours and their resources versus ours, but they're not using all of their resources.
00:43:58.000 Also, most importantly, legally, in Texas, you have right to try laws, which actually reinforce the federal right to try statutes, which gives people the right to fight for their lives, to go to treatments that are outside of the FDA and outside the normal medical treatments, and do anything they can to fight for their lives.
00:44:18.000 And that is what Annalise's parents want to do.
00:44:21.000 If it were not for the Texas Attorney General, Ken Paxton, and his office and all the people there, Who have been working through the night, night after night after night.
00:44:30.000 This case would probably already be over.
00:44:34.000 And it's just staggering that these people are defiant of the law.
00:44:38.000 What is with this hospital? 0.70
00:44:39.000 Why do you have to kill this child? 1.00
00:44:41.000 Let her go. 0.89
00:44:42.000 Two things Ken Paxton's team, I will just say across the nation, they are amazing and responsive and they care.
00:44:50.000 They have blown me away time and time again.
00:44:52.000 They are good people on Ken's team.
00:44:55.000 And two, this is what happens when leftists take over things like CPS.
00:44:55.000 He's a good man.
00:44:59.000 They talk about how compassionate they are, but they lack basic humanity, and it's insane.
00:45:05.000 Laura, I check your Twitter all the time because, like I said, you bring up stories that nobody else is talking about that you shine a light on them.
00:45:12.000 And then there's stories that everybody's now talking about, like Kristen Welker and President Trump.
00:45:18.000 And I really wanted to get into the LA mayor's race with you, but we have Bella Saley joining us next segment.
00:45:24.000 So we're going to save that for then. 1.00
00:45:25.000 So I know you would crush it on both topics, but this Kristen Welker thing is just obscene. 1.00
00:45:30.000 So she. 1.00
00:45:31.000 Basically, Trump gives her everything.
00:45:34.000 He's talking about Iran.
00:45:35.000 He's talking about Israel.
00:45:36.000 He's talking about the ceasefire.
00:45:37.000 He's not holding back.
00:45:38.000 He's giving her everything she wants.
00:45:39.000 Then she goes on this diatribe, calling him a liar for like two minutes.
00:45:43.000 And finally, he's like, you know what, darling?
00:45:45.000 We're done here.
00:45:47.000 See you later.
00:45:48.000 So I'm going to play the clip and get your reaction to it.
00:45:50.000 Stop 42.
00:45:52.000 Your elections are crooked, and you're crooked, and me, the press, is crooked.
00:45:56.000 And so is ABC and CBS and CNN. 0.75
00:46:00.000 But Mr. President. 0.80
00:46:00.000 Your one sided, crooked network. 0.80
00:46:02.000 Let's call it quits because I've had enough.
00:46:05.000 Thank you, darling.
00:46:05.000 Have a good time.
00:46:06.000 Mr. President, let's please.
00:46:07.000 I traveled all the way to Wisconsin.
00:46:09.000 I've sat in the rain with you.
00:46:11.000 I know.
00:46:12.000 I traveled in the rain with you for an hour.
00:46:14.000 On and off in the rain, and I've given you enough time.
00:46:17.000 You ought to straighten out your press because you know what?
00:46:20.000 A country can never be great with a dishonest person.
00:46:22.000 Listen, we traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview.
00:46:28.000 I came all the way to Wisconsin for this.
00:46:30.000 I traveled, Mr. President.
00:46:32.000 Look at her. 0.98
00:46:32.000 She's just dumbfounded. 0.98
00:46:34.000 All right, she's.
00:46:35.000 Claiming he was going off on conspiracy theories, saying, You have no evidence of this, no evidence about J6 and that the FBI was there, no evidence about election fraud in LA.
00:46:44.000 These people are such robots that you can hear it.
00:46:48.000 It's almost like the editor is in my head saying we have to stick by our editorial standards.
00:46:52.000 There's no evidence.
00:46:53.000 Explain what we just witnessed there, Laura Logan.
00:46:55.000 Wow.
00:46:56.000 What you just witnessed is the American people being completely and utterly disrespected by the media.
00:47:03.000 You're watching an information warfare operation underway.
00:47:07.000 That's a real picture.
00:47:09.000 We ran it through the AI check.
00:47:13.000 That's cruel.
00:47:14.000 I mean, that's cruel.
00:47:14.000 Pull it down.
00:47:15.000 Pull it down.
00:47:16.000 That's cruel.
00:47:17.000 I mean, maybe appropriate.
00:47:18.000 I don't know.
00:47:19.000 Depending on your politics, right?
00:47:20.000 It would be how you see that.
00:47:22.000 But this is what we're looking at here first of all, dereliction of duty.
00:47:27.000 For somebody to have the audacity to sit down with the president of the United States, who obviously hasn't done a single shred of journalism, that is an indictment on her, on her producers, on her network.
00:47:43.000 And that's how you know this isn't really about journalism.
00:47:46.000 Right?
00:47:47.000 Because no self respecting journalist can say today that there's no evidence of vote fraud.
00:47:52.000 Have you not looked at Georgia?
00:47:53.000 Have you not looked at Maricopa County?
00:47:55.000 Have you not looked at Michigan?
00:47:57.000 I mean, I could go on and on and on.
00:47:59.000 And never mind Los Angeles.
00:48:02.000 And what these people do is they hide behind like a catchphrase, right?
00:48:07.000 We're going to say, okay, evidence is compelling.
00:48:09.000 That convinces people.
00:48:11.000 If you have evidence, you can win a case in a court of law.
00:48:13.000 Okay?
00:48:14.000 So we're going to tell people this is our counter to the president.
00:48:17.000 There's no evidence.
00:48:19.000 The problem is for Kirsten Welker and her network, it's not true.
00:48:24.000 There is so much evidence at this point.
00:48:27.000 The problem for the Trump administration is they haven't done anything with that evidence.
00:48:32.000 If they had held people accountable, if they were putting people in jail for stealing the 2020 election and many other elections since then, then people wouldn't be free to act with impunity and this wouldn't be going on, it wouldn't be funded and so on and so on, right?
00:48:48.000 And this is a big problem.
00:48:50.000 But coming back to the media part of this, Information warfare is not journalism.
00:48:55.000 And we are looking at information warfare.
00:48:57.000 This is the battle for your mind.
00:48:59.000 This is when these people, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary, they just ignore what we all know to be true and they keep pushing the lie and they keep pushing the lie.
00:49:09.000 They have made themselves co conspirators in treason and sedition because it is actually to knowingly and intentionally deceive the American people to use your platform and use the credibility that has been built up over many, many years.
00:49:24.000 And to use that to deceive and to destroy this country is actually criminal.
00:49:31.000 And these people have had more than enough time to come out and apologize for being wrong about Russia collusion, for lying about Hunter Biden's laptop, for lying about the 2020 election, and by the way, for lying about January 6th.
00:49:44.000 And let's not forget, before she asked for evidence of the election, she accused him of there being no evidence of there being weaponization against the people of this country by their government.
00:49:55.000 What about all the parents who were targeted as terrorists?
00:49:58.000 By the Biden administration, right?
00:50:01.000 What about all the January 6th defendants who were being charged with felonies and trespassing and for doing absolutely nothing but exercise their First Amendment rights, all of whom's constitutional rights were completely obliterated in those kangaroo courts in Washington, D.C., with your juries that are all completely Democrat.
00:50:20.000 And by the way, the same, like, I don't know, four or five judges trying all of those cases, hundreds of cases, grandstanding in the courtrooms, making political speeches, and because the judiciary has proven itself.
00:50:33.000 To be so independent and so honest.
00:50:35.000 It is outrageous what these people do. 1.00
00:50:38.000 They are disgusting and they are a disgrace to the profession. 0.99
00:50:42.000 Well, and Jake Tapper goes, This is some wild, unhinged stuff from the president. 0.99
00:50:47.000 Welker is a good person, an honest journalist, and didn't deserve that.
00:50:51.000 But more importantly, we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence.
00:50:56.000 Oh, there's the line with zero evidence, it can't respond to a political challenge.
00:50:59.000 Zero evidence.
00:51:01.000 That's the talking point, right?
00:51:03.000 Yeah, because that's very convincing.
00:51:05.000 Yeah.
00:51:06.000 And it's like, sorry, he's talking about the weaponization fund.
00:51:08.000 You know what?
00:51:09.000 Okay. 0.99
00:51:10.000 Maybe it's politically a loser. 0.93
00:51:12.000 Maybe, you know, I get it. 0.97
00:51:13.000 Okay, whatever.
00:51:14.000 But I believe the president's heart is in the right place.
00:51:16.000 By the way, you know who agreed with him?
00:51:18.000 Charlie. 0.95
00:51:18.000 Charlie agreed with pardoning the J Sixers because they had been bamboozled and railroaded by an absolute weaponized DOJ that took special. 0.95
00:51:27.000 I mean, you could be a grandma taking a selfie. 0.75
00:51:29.000 They left our professionals at this sort of thing, too.
00:51:30.000 We can go into a whole segment later on that.

00:51:40.000 Lara Logan, fantastic. 0.99
00:51:44.000 Today's culture would have you believe that a baby is only a baby if you decide it's a baby.
00:51:49.000 Sometimes it's a choice.
00:51:50.000 Sometimes it's a baby.
00:51:52.000 And guess what? 1.00
00:51:53.000 We all know that's garbage. 0.99
00:51:54.000 It's not true. 0.99

00:53:00.000 All right, without further ado, I want to welcome Bill Asale.
00:53:05.000 He's the first assistant U.S. attorney for the Central District of California, and he has been all over this Los Angeles mayoral race story and some of the sketchiness going around.
00:53:16.000 Welcome back to the show, Mr. Attorney.
00:53:20.000 U.S. Attorney, the salutation I'm working on.
00:53:23.000 But tell us that you put out this tweet yesterday that blew my mind.
00:53:28.000 I instantly reached out to your team.
00:53:30.000 California allows first time voters to register using forms of ID, this is your words, that most Americans would find surprising, including gym membership cards, employer ID cards, credit or debit cards, prescription drug labels.
00:53:47.000 My goodness, insurance cards.
00:53:49.000 By the way, California provides free health coverage to undocumented immigrants. 1.00
00:53:53.000 What is going on in the golden state, sir?
00:53:56.000 That's a great question.
00:53:57.000 And you really have to understand what California has done over the last about decade in this election space.
00:54:04.000 I was in the legislature before I was appointed by the president to be in my current position.
00:54:09.000 So California has basically eroded all of the election integrity measures.
00:54:15.000 They've codified it out of the system.
00:54:16.000 It starts with registering people to vote.
00:54:19.000 Anyone can register to vote pretty much online.
00:54:21.000 You can go online.
00:54:22.000 And there's a box you can check that says if you don't have a social, you don't have a DMV, you just check some boxes and they'll register you to vote.
00:54:31.000 And the only thing they require is that the first time you vote, you have to show a form of ID.
00:54:35.000 So, California will lie and say, oh, no, ID is required to vote.
00:54:40.000 But then I just showed you the list of what they consider an acceptable form of ID in order to be registered to vote.
00:54:47.000 We're talking about a gem membership card, a prescription label. 0.96
00:54:51.000 These are ridiculous.
00:54:52.000 This is not proof of ID. 0.87
00:54:54.000 This does not prove you're a U.S. citizen who is eligible to vote.
00:54:57.000 So, just think about who's on the voter rolls.
00:55:00.000 Then you get into voter roll maintenance.
00:55:02.000 There's no maintenance in California, very little.
00:55:06.000 They do not promptly remove dead people, people who've moved, people who've been convicted of felonies, and people who are not citizens.
00:55:14.000 So the voter rolls are filthy, dirty.
00:55:17.000 Now you go to step three universal vote by mail.
00:55:21.000 Put as many mails out into the mail as possible.
00:55:26.000 So they're mailing out millions of ballots.
00:55:29.000 Whether you want a mail ballot or not, everyone who's a registered voter in the state of California gets a mail ballot.
00:55:35.000 So now you have millions of ballots floating out there.
00:55:38.000 Now comes step four ballot harvesting.
00:55:42.000 They made it legal.
00:55:43.000 This is illegal in most states, but in California, it's legal to handle other people's ballots.
00:55:49.000 So anybody can go collect anybody's ballot and turn it in for them.
00:55:53.000 No chain of custody, no record keeping, no documentation of who handled the ballot, who touched it.
00:56:00.000 And so you could just have Antifa looking type people going around collecting hundreds of ballots and putting them in a mailbox, and you're not allowed to stop them or question them because it's legal in California.
00:56:11.000 So, put that all together, and we have no voter ID when you vote, it's a fraudster's paradise.
00:56:19.000 So, what are we to do?
00:56:21.000 I mean, I'm going to do my job.
00:56:22.000 Yes, we have open investigations into election fraud.
00:56:26.000 Yes, we will be charging individuals with fraud related to the elections.
00:56:32.000 Is it going to be at the scale necessary to expose how widespread the fraud is in California?
00:56:39.000 Probably not.
00:56:41.000 But that's what I can do.
00:56:42.000 I mean, that's why I'm really pushing what we really need in California.
00:56:45.000 It is to be able to audit the rolls, audit the voter rolls, because that's where all of this starts from.
00:56:51.000 If you have dirty rolls, you're going to have dirty elections.
00:56:54.000 And California is blocking us. 0.96
00:56:56.000 They're doing everything in their power.
00:56:58.000 We've gone to court with them and we're up at the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
00:57:01.000 So we're litigating.
00:57:02.000 We're doing everything we possibly can to work within the law as written.
00:57:08.000 But Congress has a role.
00:57:12.000 They could change the law, they could crack down on this stuff, but they haven't done it yet.
00:57:16.000 Yeah, I mean, this is what's really infuriating these California courts keep blocking you from being able to audit.
00:57:21.000 Like, what are you hiding?
00:57:23.000 What is the legal explanation or rationale that they're giving you for saying, you know, you're not allowed to look under the hood here?
00:57:30.000 Are you ready for it?
00:57:33.000 They said that they can't give it to us because it would violate California's privacy laws.
00:57:40.000 That to give over the personal identifying information of voters would be a violation of California's privacy laws. 0.65
00:57:46.000 That is so ridiculous on so many grounds. 0.65
00:57:48.000 Number one, we issue. 0.97
00:57:49.000 Those documents.
00:57:51.000 We issue the Social Security numbers.
00:57:53.000 It's nothing that we don't have access to.
00:57:55.000 Second of all, when Congress has said that we are allowed to have these records, it supersedes any state law.
00:58:02.000 So you have the Supremacy Clause.
00:58:04.000 But you know what?
00:58:05.000 They have found lower level judges who are Democrat appointed judges who side with them.
00:58:09.000 And so until we get this up to the appropriate courts and get it overturned, we're stuck a little bit.
00:58:15.000 But that's the arguments they rely on.
00:58:18.000 It occurs to me the question of.
00:58:21.000 Actual fraud is absolutely front and center here, and we absolutely need to find it.
00:58:25.000 But the bigger picture here is California has any government needs legitimacy.
00:58:30.000 People need to feel like the system makes sense to them.
00:58:34.000 And what California has done is they're absolutely burning up any legitimacy the system has.
00:58:39.000 It doesn't matter if there's no fraud in this case because they've done everything they can to make it look as shady as possible.
00:58:46.000 When you can register with any kind of ID, when anyone can harvest these things, when it's universal mail in ballots that party operatives can go and hoover up and help people figure out, when anyone can do any of these bizarre smiley face signatures on things, it doesn't matter if there's no fraud because the thing.
00:59:03.000 Looks as fraudulent as possible, and they take a month to count these.
00:59:07.000 No one is going to trust the outcome of these elections, and that's going to create cynicism.
00:59:12.000 It's going to create an atmosphere of deceit and fraud.
00:59:17.000 It's deliberately designed to look as third world as possible. 0.94
00:59:20.000 Well, and real quick here, I did the math, and in the first 64% of the votes counted in the LA mayor's race, Nithya Rahman received approximately 23%, a little bit less, 23% of the vote. 0.99
00:59:34.000 In the next 15%, Of votes counted.
00:59:37.000 So this would take us through Friday and Saturday, right when she then overtook Spencer Pratt.
00:59:43.000 So we're about at 70, 80% of the vote.
00:59:46.000 She received 41% of the late mail ins, right?
00:59:50.000 So she nearly doubled her share of the percentage of votes she got with late mail ins.
00:59:56.000 And my reaction is Is that possible?
00:59:58.000 Sure, it's possible.
00:59:59.000 So is winning the lottery.
01:00:01.000 Is it likely?
01:00:02.000 Probably not.
01:00:03.000 So again, to Blake's point, okay, let's assume everything is on the up and up.
01:00:07.000 The way that this has been conducted, and that this has taken weeks or a week now, and is going to take weeks to get a final tally here.
01:00:16.000 And you see such dramatic shifts right there.
01:00:19.000 You see it right there, that huge jump up.
01:00:22.000 And Spencer Pratt, who had all this momentum, all of this name ID, all of this buzz around him, and nobody was really talking about Nithi Raman.
01:00:29.000 I'm supposed to believe all the really diehard progressives just really love to vote late and mail in.
01:00:34.000 So it's a left on left fight.
01:00:37.000 It's a tough pill to swallow here.
01:00:39.000 Look, California is struggling from a credibility crisis.
01:00:42.000 And regardless of who wins, you would think they would want the public to have confidence that this is the person legitimately elected.
01:00:48.000 They don't seem to care.
01:00:49.000 I mean, I spent years in the legislature fighting on this.
01:00:52.000 I was on the elections committee and they kicked me off for, I guess, causing too much trouble on that committee.
01:00:58.000 I think I remember this.
01:00:58.000 They don't care.
01:00:59.000 It's all about power, it's all about winning and power.
01:01:03.000 And they've basically done everything they can to help fraudsters avoid being detected, which makes my job harder.
01:01:11.000 Like I said, We will be prosecuting people for fraud.
01:01:14.000 We just did it last month where, because of the work James O'Keefe did, we prosecuted one of the people at Skid Row that was paying homeless people to vote and putting false addresses on the registration.
01:01:26.000 So we've got more cases coming, but it's not going to be enough to override the system.
01:01:31.000 I believe there is an initiative on the ballot in November.
01:01:35.000 There is.
01:01:36.000 That would.
01:01:37.000 Yeah, so that's something either Congress needs to step in or the people of California have to take measures into their own hands.
01:01:44.000 But You know, I'll just say, you know, there's a lot of pressure on the DOJ right now to fix this, and we'll do what we can.
01:01:49.000 But my lane is narrow it's to bring criminal charges in a court of law, and that's a high burden, and we will meet that burden.
01:01:56.000 But, you know, I can't fix it as one person in this office.
01:02:00.000 Yeah, I mean, your point is well made.
01:02:02.000 This is a structural problem when you flood the state with mail in ballots to everybody.
01:02:09.000 I used to live in California, I have since moved, I got a ballot.
01:02:13.000 When you flood the state with all these mail ins, and then you have very lax.
01:02:18.000 Signature requirements.
01:02:19.000 We showed that smiley face one as the witness that's going around.
01:02:23.000 You could throw the smiley face ballot again if you want.
01:02:26.000 This is endemic, though.
01:02:27.000 And then you got ballot harvesting.
01:02:29.000 And then you've got these NGOs that are paying people in places like Skid Row to register to vote.
01:02:36.000 And their voter reg is next to a porta potty outhouse.
01:02:41.000 And then you're letting people with gym cards register to vote or prescription drug labels. 0.98
01:02:47.000 The whole thing is such a clown show. 0.95
01:02:50.000 It is such a farce. 0.95
01:02:52.000 And then they get on the Mockingbird media and they just tell us, well, this is just how California counts ballots.
01:02:58.000 We just.
01:02:58.000 Prioritize access to all these people.
01:03:01.000 They are delegitimizing themselves, and you said it perfectly.
01:03:03.000 They have a crisis of credibility.
01:03:05.000 I don't believe them as far as I could throw them.
01:03:07.000 And that whole thing's a joke, and everybody's calling them out on it.
01:03:10.000 And then we're told we're just conspiracy theorists.
01:03:12.000 I'm sorry.
01:03:15.000 Bill Asale, he's the first assistant U.S. attorney for the Central District in California.
01:03:19.000 You are doing great work, and you are one of the few fighters over there that we look to to keep everybody honest.
01:03:25.000 Please keep it up and know you have allies on this show that will cheer you on as you do it, sir.
01:03:25.000 So thank you.
01:03:30.000 Thank you so much.
01:03:31.000 Thanks for having me.
01:03:31.000 Appreciate it.
01:03:32.000 And as I said, it's the first time I've been on since Charlie.
01:03:36.000 So it's a little bit sad, but I'm glad to be on and happy to be back anytime.
01:03:40.000 Yeah, absolutely.
01:03:41.000 Thank you, sir.
01:03:42.000 And it's an honor to have you back on.
01:03:46.000 All right, Blake, we've got updates in the Iranian Israel saga that are happening live.
01:03:51.000 We're following this with rapt attention. 0.91
01:03:52.000 We want this conflict to end.
01:03:54.000 We're very. 1.00
01:03:57.000 I've heard enough about Iran for a lifetime, I will say. 1.00
01:04:00.000 But there's promising signs.
01:04:02.000 So just breaking now, I'm looking at the breaking news ticker, is that. 0.58
01:04:06.000 Netanyahu has said Israel is done striking Iran for the time being, which is what President Trump was saying.
01:04:11.000 Stop hitting them.
01:04:12.000 And Iran says they're also halting their strikes against Israel.
01:04:16.000 They do say they will resume if there are more strikes in southern Lebanon.
01:04:20.000 That's been, of course, the source of constant tension there.
01:04:24.000 It's basically the second front of this war, arguably the main one.
01:04:27.000 I think more people have died in Lebanon at this point than have died in Iran. 0.99
01:04:30.000 It's an important distinction. 1.00
01:04:32.000 Yeah.
01:04:33.000 And by the way, there was a report over the weekend, and this is something I'm looking at.
01:04:38.000 But it was reported in the New York Times that the Trump admin is seeing increasing threat of espionage from Israel over the Iran deal.
01:04:46.000 So, as Trump is pushing more and more for peace, Israel wants to sort of, I guess, finish the regime off in Iran.
01:04:56.000 There is increased concern that there might be some espionage going on from Israel's side.
01:05:01.000 Now, let me just be clear.
01:05:03.000 We've known this, it happens both ways.
01:05:05.000 The United States spies on allies as well as foes.
01:05:09.000 This is a constant thing.
01:05:11.000 But when you see it ramp up, when our objectives seem to be divergent more and more so, that shows just how much space is gathering between BB and President Trump here.
01:05:22.000 It's very clear.
01:05:23.000 It just confirms a few things.
01:05:24.000 First, it confirms the lie President Trump is not BB's puppet.
01:05:29.000 He's not this guy who just obeys him.
01:05:31.000 And I think they have differences and there's friction between them.
01:05:34.000 This breaking news now, it also affirms, frankly, what we've warned about, which is it's easier to get in conflicts than to get out.
01:05:41.000 We've seen This struggle goes back and forth.
01:05:43.000 But it also shows that President Trump, I think, is very earnest about wanting to achieve a durable long term peace.
01:05:50.000 I think he went into this conflict thinking, I want to be the one who finally ends this cancer that's been going for nearly half a century now.
01:05:59.000 Yeah.
01:05:59.000 And I mean, listen, President Trump went off on Bibi Netanyahu.
01:06:03.000 They had that very stern call where he said, knock it off, stop the strikes.
01:06:07.000 I want peace.
01:06:08.000 Let's get this thing over the finish line.
01:06:11.000 To Blake's point, To all the people that were saying that Trump is just BB's puppet, you're having a tough time right now with the reporting because President Trump's expletive laced call, where President Trump told him what to do.
01:06:24.000 You see the multiple truth posts where President Trump is telling them, hey, knock it off.
01:06:28.000 We want peace.
01:06:29.000 Stop throwing missiles at each other.
01:06:30.000 Stop lobbing missiles at Israel.
01:06:32.000 And Israel, stop lobbing missiles at Iran.
01:06:35.000 Okay, you fired off your missiles.
01:06:37.000 We want peace.
01:06:38.000 I genuinely believe, knowing what I know about President Trump, watching him, observing him over the years, there's a part of him that is probably a little bit bored of this conflict.
01:06:47.000 Thinks he accomplished his mission, wants to be able to go in and get the nuclear dust.
01:06:51.000 By the way, he spoke with Kirsten Welker before he walked off about this.
01:06:56.000 And I think he made a fair point.
01:06:58.000 39. 0.55
01:06:59.000 You've called it nuclear dust.
01:07:01.000 Yeah.
01:07:02.000 Will you and would you be open to sending in U.S. forces to retrieve the nuclear stock?
01:07:08.000 So the official name is highly enriched uranium.
01:07:11.000 The way you do it is if we make a deal, if we make a deal, now we're friendly, we'll all go together.
01:07:16.000 It'll be our equipment.
01:07:18.000 We'll take it out and destroy it, whether it's on site or whether we take it off site.
01:07:22.000 If we don't make a deal, then we're going to take them out militarily very harshly.
01:07:28.000 And we'll wait till we do that before we go.
01:07:31.000 Okay.
01:07:32.000 So the president is making his intentions very clear.
01:07:35.000 He's saying, take the deal.
01:07:37.000 It's a good deal.
01:07:38.000 You guys will get some more money into your coffers, about $500 million a day.
01:07:42.000 We'll ease sanctions as you make step by step incremental progress.
01:07:46.000 And here's Israel saying, listen, we've still got them funding Lebanon. 0.96
01:07:49.000 And by the way, I just want to say Israel has a valid point. 0.95
01:07:52.000 Even Rahim Kassam said this. 0.58
01:07:53.000 Like, if you're striking Israel, Israel has a right to defend itself.
01:07:57.000 And you've got a big Hezbollah problem in the south of Lebanon.
01:08:01.000 And Just to be clear, I mean, Iran has denied that it is backing Hezbollah for years.
01:08:07.000 Everybody knew it was not true, but they've denied it.
01:08:09.000 They should be technically separate entities, but Iran wants to include Hezbollah in the potential peace deal here, which that kind of gives up the goat.
01:08:18.000 It gives up the fact that Iran is sponsoring terror cells throughout that region. 0.98
