00:01:23.000 We are back in the chair today, live from beautiful Gainesville, Florida.

00:01:29.000 I am just steps away from the University of Florida.

00:01:33.000 I would say go Gators, but I don't believe it.

00:01:36.000 So, best of luck, Gators, I should say.

00:01:39.000 Not that we got anything to worry about.

00:01:41.000 Haven't been good in about 20 years.

00:01:43.000 Ah, be more fair.

00:01:44.000 It's like 15 years.

00:01:46.000 There's lots to cover today.

00:01:48.000 Thank you, Andrew, for filling in yesterday.

00:01:50.000 We have an exciting...

00:01:54.000 I'm going to go talk to college kids for about two or three hours, and the clips are going to go very, very viral.

00:02:00.000 There's the story that we covered last week, and we had Riley Gaines at Freedom Night in America on Tuesday evening, that many of you know, where President Donald Trump signed the executive order forbidding men from playing in women's sports.

00:02:15.000 Of course, the governor of Maine then got in a little bit of a debate with President Trump.

00:02:21.000 At the governor's dinner and the governor's luncheon, I should say, saying, oh, we'll see you in court.

00:02:29.000 We're going to fight you in the court to make sure that men can participate in female sports. 1.00

00:02:34.000 Now, that is a 90-10 issue, and you must wonder, how is it that people get to the conclusion that men can give birth, that men and women are basically the same, that men should be able to compete in female sports?

00:02:48.000 And it's very simple.

00:02:49.000 If people do not believe in God, they will believe in anything.

00:02:53.000 And man will do whatever is right in his own eyes.

00:02:58.000 Woe to those who call good evil and evil good, as the scriptures say.

00:03:04.000 If you do not believe in a transcendent being, an almighty God, divine providence, eternal power, then you're going to have to fill that void with something.

00:03:15.000 And that void is postmodernist, secular humanism.

00:03:19.000 Over the last couple of years, we have talked about how leftist ideology tries to fill an existential void.

00:03:24.000 And here on screen, you see President Donald Trump jousting with the governor of Maine.

00:03:29.000 And it's directly tied together.

00:03:31.000 Because if you go look at the ten least religious states in the country, all but one are deep blue states.

00:03:41.000 The least religious state in the country is Vermont.

00:03:44.000 Second is Maine.

00:03:46.000 She's representing her people.

00:03:48.000 Third is New Hampshire.

00:03:50.000 Fourth is Massachusetts.

00:03:51.000 Let me stop.

00:03:52.000 That means that four of the least religious states in the country are all where the country was founded by Christian pastors.

00:04:03.000 Covenantals, Covenanters, Presbyterians, Episcopalians.

00:04:09.000 Four out of ten of the least religious are all in that Northeast quadrant.

00:04:14.000 It's amazing.

00:04:15.000 Number five, Washington.

00:04:16.000 Number six, Oregon.

00:04:18.000 Number seven, Alaska.

00:04:19.000 So that is the outlier.

00:04:20.000 Number eight, Hawaii.

00:04:22.000 Nine, Rhode Island.

00:04:23.000 Ten, Colorado.

00:04:24.000 All of them.

00:04:26.000 Vermont, two Democrat senators.

00:04:28.000 Maine, two Democrat senators.

00:04:30.000 New Hampshire, two Democrat senators.

00:04:32.000 Massachusetts, two Democrat senators.

00:04:34.000 Washington, Oregon.

00:04:35.000 Alaska is the outlier.

00:04:36.000 But you got Murkowski, who's her own thing. 0.99

00:04:39.000 Hawaii, Rhode Island, and Colorado.

00:04:41.000 The 10 most religious states in the country, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Louisiana, Arkansas, South Carolina, West Virginia, Georgia, Oklahoma, and North Carolina.

00:04:53.000 If you take a step back, you realize that the craziest ideas, the ones that are an affront to the natural law, an affront to our senses, come from the most secular states.

00:05:06.000 There has been a belief over the last couple of years that America is becoming less churched and it is inevitable.

00:05:15.000 One of the most promising pieces of news to tie all of this together is a Pew Research study the New York Times covered yesterday that shows that America has actually leveled off and is becoming slightly more religious.

00:05:31.000 Pew Research has completed a very large survey of American religious beliefs, and the results are fascinating.

00:05:37.000 It's one nation under God.

00:05:38.000 Americans have stopped leaving Christianity, and the country is overwhelmingly spiritual, a new report has found.

00:05:44.000 This is the best news that I can share post-Donald Trump's election in November.

00:05:50.000 This is a leading indicator that is deeper than just politics.

00:05:53.000 It's about meaning and purpose.

00:05:56.000 This is about stopping the spiritual bleeding that we have been living through.

00:06:03.000 America used to be overwhelming, almost unanimously Christian. 0.98

00:06:07.000 Even as recently as 1990, more than 90% of Americans identified as Christian, but it's been in decline for a long time.

00:06:14.000 From 2007 to the early 2020s, the share of Americans calling themselves Christian fell from 78% to just 60%, a drop of more than 1% a year.

00:06:26.000 Well, the decline has stopped, and it may have even gone into reverse.

00:06:31.000 The share of Americans who are Christian has stabilized at about 63%.

00:06:35.000 The share of Americans who say they pray daily has consistently been between 44% and 46% since 2021. In the new RLS, 44% say they pray at least one once a day.

00:06:50.000 Similarly, since 2020, the percentage of U.S. adults who say they attend religious service monthly has hovered in the low 30s.

00:06:57.000 This is bad news for the Marxists.

00:07:00.000 Let me show you.

00:07:01.000 Since 2007, America's becoming more secular, more secular, more secular.

00:07:06.000 We are more religious, according to this survey by the Pew Research Center, than we were after 2020. We have reversed the course.

00:07:15.000 We flatlined it.

00:07:15.000 Now, we are not seeing yet the revival spike that we need, but the American body politic, the American people, are searching for something.

00:07:23.000 They are living through Viktor Frankl's man's search for meaning.

00:07:26.000 They are looking for...

00:07:28.000 They're looking for a purpose for being.

00:07:30.000 They're looking to the heavens.

00:07:32.000 They want to go back to their roots.

00:07:35.000 And that chart right there is so fascinating.

00:07:38.000 I have to continue.

00:07:39.000 By the way, those of you listening on podcasting, we're going to put this on charliekirk.com.

00:07:44.000 Essentially, it shows that America tried a steep downturn post-2020 to become more secular, and that has now been reversed.

00:07:53.000 I think that's a perfect picture of our politics as well.

00:07:56.000 We looked over the abyss.

00:07:58.000 And we saw them transing our kids, and we saw white people being blamed for their existence, and we saw our kids being medically kidnapped.

00:08:05.000 We looked over the abyss, and we saw DEI and CRT. We saw an open border.

00:08:11.000 We saw suicide widespread and alcohol addiction and drug addiction, and we said, we don't want that.

00:08:17.000 We're going back to our roots, and we are finding our way back home.

00:08:24.000 Yesterday, and it's fitting because it ties all of this together.

00:08:27.000 At President Trump's first cabinet meeting, what is the first thing he did?

00:08:32.000 The first thing that President Trump did was ask the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, a great man who's also been a guest on this program, to lead the room in prayer.

00:08:46.000 What you are seeing is a battle of those that believe that there is a God and people that believe that they are God.

00:08:52.000 What you saw at the cabinet meeting...

00:08:55.000 Was President Donald Trump, who gets called as being egotistical and narcissistic, and he's the center of the universe, saying, no, actually, there is a God, and we are not him.

00:09:04.000 In fact, he says, let's have Scott lead us in grace.

00:09:08.000 And the whole room, with the cameras rolling, and hundreds of millions of people worldwide watching, took a moment to humble themselves before Almighty God.

00:09:19.000 Consistent.

00:09:22.000 We are bringing God back into our government.

00:09:30.000 And as we are seeing the battle between those that want to say that men can play in female sports and those that want to say they want to be able to chemically castrate their kids, they believe that because they do not believe in a higher purpose and they do not believe in a higher power.

00:09:43.000 And if we are serious about saving our country, it is the spiritual battle that is fundamental.

00:09:49.000 First and foremost.

00:09:51.000 Being a nation under God makes sure we are not a nation under tyrannical government.

00:09:56.000 The Marxists have always said they want to eliminate three things.

00:09:59.000 The family, people's connection to faith or God, and private property.

00:10:03.000 President Donald Trump is restoring all three.

00:10:06.000 Those three things are the bedrock.

00:10:08.000 They are a foundation of a civil and free society.

00:10:11.000 You cannot have a free society with those three things.

00:10:13.000 I would add free speech as a fourth.

00:10:17.000 If pain is affecting your life, make 2025 the year of feeling good again, the year of moving better, sleeping better, feeling more alive, and do it with Relief Factor.

00:10:28.000 Relief Factor is a daily supplement that fights pain naturally.

00:10:31.000 It doesn't just mask pain temporarily, helps reduce or even eliminate it.

00:10:36.000 Over a million people have turned to Relief Factor.

00:10:38.000 Feel the difference it can make in your life.

00:10:40.000 Give their three-week quick start a try.

00:10:43.000 It's only $19.95, less than a dollar a day, and just takes a phone call.

00:10:46.000 Call 1-800-4-RELIEF. That is 1-800-4-RELIEF. Remember, every day you feel better is a day you live better.

00:10:52.000 So wherever you're hurting, back, neck, joints, or muscles, make 2025 the year of feeling good again.

00:10:58.000 Try Relief Factor right now.

00:11:00.000 That is 1-800-4-RELIEF. 1-800-4-RELIEF. This is profound.

00:11:06.000 This is President Trump's first cabinet meeting.

00:11:08.000 His first gathering of his team.

00:11:10.000 And let me just say, what an all-star cabinet that he has assembled.

00:11:14.000 You look at this cabinet and you say, huh, America is back.

00:11:17.000 And it's not just the headline gatherers.

00:11:20.000 It's not just the Hegseths. 1.00

00:11:21.000 It's not just the Besants.

00:11:23.000 It's not just the Marco Rubios, who's doing amazing, by the way.

00:11:26.000 It's not just those.

00:11:27.000 It's the ones that get less attention but deserve attention.

00:11:30.000 Secretary of Transportation, Duffy.

00:11:33.000 You got Doug Burgum running all the energy stuff.

00:11:35.000 He's doing a great job there.

00:11:36.000 You got Pam Bondi at DOJ. You, of course, got Tulsi Gabbard, Bobby Kennedy.

00:11:41.000 Looking at that room was a manifestation, was a physical embodiment of the political transformation that we helped make possible last November and that we are continuing every single day.

00:11:52.000 We had Maha.

00:11:53.000 We had Stop the Wars.

00:11:54.000 We had No More Lawfare.

00:11:56.000 What you saw in that room, can we get a picture of the cabinet room, was every campaign political slogan.

00:12:02.000 Around the table.

00:12:03.000 Because it wasn't just slogans.

00:12:04.000 That is slogans into practice.

00:12:08.000 Let me show you right there.

00:12:10.000 That's Marco Rubio, peace through strength.

00:12:11.000 That is Pete Hegseth right there, which is no more stupid wars and get woke out of our military.

00:12:16.000 That is Steve Whitcoff right there behind him, which is we stand with Israel.

00:12:21.000 I could point to every single person in that room, and that is a promises made, promises kept moment.

00:12:26.000 Every single person in that room.

00:12:29.000 Bobby Kennedy, make America healthy again.

00:12:31.000 Howard Lutnick, we're going to do tariffs on our adversaries.

00:12:34.000 Kristi Noem, massive deportation force.

00:12:36.000 Every single person is there to fulfill a promise that President Trump made on the campaign trail.

00:12:42.000 Every single person.

00:12:45.000 Russ Vogt, we're going to stop the regulatory agency.

00:12:47.000 Linda McMahon, we're going to abolish the Department of Education.

00:12:51.000 We've got Elon Musk covering above there, which is we're going to do doge, we're going to cut the waste, we're going to go after the fourth branch of government.

00:12:56.000 You got J.D. Vance there, new generation of leadership who's been doing an amazing rock star job.

00:13:03.000 And it would have been really easy if the first thing to do is talk about how great of a job everyone is doing.

00:13:07.000 I want you to understand the humility here, the spiritual humility that we must submit and repent to an almighty God.

00:13:13.000 Understand it would have been very easy to say, hey, aren't we doing the greatest job ever?

00:13:17.000 But no, the first thing that Trump 2.0 wants to do, the first thing is to humble themselves before our creator.

00:13:26.000 You think Joe Biden would ever do this?

00:13:28.000 You think the first thing that Joe Biden would do is say that we are going to acknowledge the Almighty?

00:13:35.000 Maybe he did it at his first cabinet meeting and I missed it.

00:13:38.000 I want you to listen carefully.

00:13:39.000 This is Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner leading the nation in prayer, the world in prayer, because as America puts God first, the world will put God first.

00:13:49.000 And we have culled and stabilized the dissent.

00:13:53.000 Into secularism.

00:13:54.000 And we need to go back into believing that there is a God and we are not Him.

00:13:59.000 This is a powerful, powerful moment.

00:14:03.000 Watch the world's most powerful room.

00:14:06.000 This is the world's most powerful room.

00:14:09.000 Submit before their Creator.

00:14:10.000 Play cut 228. God, thank you that you've allowed us to see this day.

00:14:26.000 The Bible says that your mercies are new every morning.

00:14:29.000 And Father God, we give you the glory and the honor.

00:14:31.000 Father God, as we serve the people of this country in every prospective agency, every job that we have, Father, we would humble ourselves before you and we would lead in the manner that you've called us to lead and to serve.

00:14:43.000 Father, the Bible says that blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.

00:14:47.000 Well, Father, we today honor you.

00:14:49.000 And Lord God, today in our meeting, we pray that you will be glorified.

00:14:55.000 While the left bends the knee before race hate and trans delusion, Trump and his team are kneeling before the creator of the universe.

00:15:04.000 The framers would be so proud to see this.

00:15:06.000 The framers of this country, Hamilton, Madison, Jay, Washington, they would see that in the year of 2025, we are opening a cabinet meeting, still submitting to God's grace.

00:15:19.000 We don't kneel over pride flags, but we will submit to God.

00:15:23.000 We will point the nation back to spiritual purposes.

00:15:28.000 Rome recovered from a near collapse after a spiritual revival.

00:15:31.000 Britain became a global superpower after a spiritual revival.

00:15:35.000 The American Revolution was led by a revival, by Jonathan Edwards, by George Whitefield, by Jonathan Mayhew.

00:15:44.000 It was the first great reformation.

00:15:48.000 And I just love seeing this.

00:15:50.000 That our leaders that are in control of the nuclear arsenal that could invade a nation whenever they want, the first thing they do is to center themselves and orient themselves.

00:16:01.000 And let that be a lesson to all of us is to start all important things in prayer.

00:16:05.000 First in prayer, as it says in the scriptures, to bring it before the Lord.

00:16:09.000 And you can imagine the secular, nasty, gremlin-filled media. 0.98

00:16:13.000 Oh, they're praying.

00:16:14.000 Yeah, we are praying, actually.

00:16:17.000 Unapologetically.

00:16:17.000 Because we all know that Donald Trump is only breathing and is only able to be at that stage, at that cabinet meeting, because a miracle happened on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania.

00:17:39.000 Alina, great to see you.

00:17:40.000 Thank you for taking the time.

00:17:42.000 Lots I want to discuss with you, the first of which is what can we expect with the Epstein documents coming out?

00:17:49.000 It seems to be momentarily.

00:17:51.000 Yes, I'm really excited because I think...

00:17:55.000 This is one of those transparency issues that the American people have been dying to see, and deservingly so.

00:18:01.000 You can't have pedophiles running amok and people protecting them.

00:18:07.000 We can't do that.

00:18:08.000 So we're going to be showing some details.

00:18:11.000 I'll let them do that.

00:18:13.000 And I don't want to ruin the break, but Cash and Pam Bondi will be there, and they'll be giving everybody what they've been waiting for.

00:18:22.000 We are excited for that.

00:18:23.000 And I guess we might see flight logs and some names, and that's going to break the internet.

00:18:29.000 And we are looking forward to that.

00:18:31.000 And it is a government that is committed to transparency.

00:18:35.000 A government committed towards...

00:18:38.000 Talk about that, Alina, please.

00:18:41.000 I think that everything that we've done...

00:18:44.000 And I'm really proud of the administration because we didn't say one thing on the campaign, Charlie, and then come in and do something different.

00:18:51.000 We saw the frustration in the American people.

00:18:53.000 We were the American people that were frustrated because we didn't have a president who would answer questions, who would speak to the press, who would speak to the American people.

00:19:02.000 Instead, we felt like the head of, and it really, frankly, was this way, the head of the executive branch, the former president, was engaging in cover-ups and was continuously hiding from Americans what their taxpayer dollars were doing, protecting people that perhaps had interest with what they were doing every day, or lining pockets.

00:19:24.000 And the beauty with President Trump is he doesn't need his pocket lined.

00:19:28.000 He's America first, always. 0.57

00:19:31.000 It's all about transparency.

00:19:32.000 You saw it yesterday, Charlie, at the cabinet meeting.

00:19:35.000 If people want to ask Elon questions, if people want to slam Elon, he'll bring him into the cabinet.

00:19:39.000 He'll have him sit there and he'll tell him he needs to address the questions from the press.

00:19:43.000 And he did that.

00:19:44.000 And he also made it clear that the president is the one directing these initiatives.

00:19:49.000 The American people, if you look at his approval ratings, they love it.

00:19:53.000 Transparency is what we always do.

00:19:55.000 I've been instructed by the president to answer as many questions as possible.

00:19:59.000 Do as many shows.

00:20:00.000 Come on, talk to you.

00:20:01.000 Get as much reach to Americans so that they can ask us from the White House what is going on, and I'll answer those questions.

00:20:09.000 I love that.

00:20:10.000 I want to play a piece of tape here.

00:20:12.000 It's play cut 220, where you are talking about the five points from Doge.

00:20:17.000 Let's go to 220. Can you clarify for federal workers who might be confused who to listen to since Elon Musk's post is different from what OPM sent out?

00:20:27.000 I don't think it's...

00:20:28.000 Look, here's the reality of the situation.

00:20:30.000 There's one person we're supposed to be listening to that's President Trump and what the American people mandated, which is what we're doing.

00:20:36.000 People need to be accountable.

00:20:37.000 You need to be able to answer the question.

00:20:39.000 If you couldn't answer it yesterday, you have till today.

00:20:41.000 But the reality is accountability is real.

00:20:45.000 I can't not show up to work every day.

00:20:48.000 I have to answer to the president.

00:20:49.000 And by answering to the president, I answer to the American people.

00:20:52.000 It's very simple.

00:20:53.000 Would you want to pay somebody to do a job and they don't show up to work?

00:20:56.000 I don't think so.

00:20:57.000 I could name five things, five bullets, in about five minutes of me coming into the office every day.

00:21:02.000 If you struggle to do that for a week, there's no excuse for that.

00:21:07.000 Now, you can have an extra day to answer it, but you better be able to answer it.

00:21:10.000 Elena, elaborate, please.

00:21:14.000 Oh, I'm a savage sometimes.

00:21:17.000 Look, I am so frustrated with why this is outrageous, why this is such a crazy thing, Charlie.

00:21:23.000 I mean, imagine you and I work hard, right?

00:21:25.000 We go to work.

00:21:26.000 You don't even have to answer to anybody.

00:21:28.000 And you work hard because you're dedicated, because you have ethics, because you have work ethics, something that is lacking, unfortunately.

00:21:35.000 But imagine then taking taxpayer dollars, your money, my money.

00:21:40.000 American dollars.

00:21:41.000 Giving it to the government, saying, hire who you need to run our country and make sure we are better, make sure we are safe.

00:21:47.000 And then they don't show up to work.

00:21:49.000 And then in some instances, they don't go take another job and double dip.

00:21:54.000 Imagine a world where we just allow that.

00:21:57.000 Anybody that knows President Trump or can see President Trump would not be surprised by this mandate.

00:22:03.000 You gotta show up to work.

00:22:04.000 You got to work hard for the American people.

00:22:06.000 And there is no better leader and example than that than President Trump.

00:22:10.000 So I think I was, in that moment, just shocked by the stupidity of the questions that I was being asked.

00:22:17.000 You know, how about, are they going to get fired?

00:22:19.000 Well, isn't that basic knowledge?

00:22:21.000 If you don't do your job, if you aren't answering emails, and if you can't articulate what it is that you do, why should American people pay you?

00:22:30.000 It is...

00:22:32.000 Simple to us, but the federal government seems to exist amongst different rules.

00:22:36.000 Three activist judges put a national injunction on foreign aid, federal grants, and limiting refugees.

00:22:43.000 And late last night, SCOTUS blocked a federal judge from forcing $2 billion in foreign aid payments.

00:22:50.000 Walk our audience through the status of the courts trying to intervene and micromanage this administration.

00:22:59.000 Yeah, that's a great way to describe it.

00:23:00.000 I think our last count was 65 lawsuits of people coming after initiatives by this administration.

00:23:07.000 This is the old tale of the Democrat Party.

00:23:10.000 Unfortunately, they didn't get the memo that this doesn't work.

00:23:12.000 American people get frustrated.

00:23:13.000 And if you look at the polling numbers, they literally say that the American people like what we're doing.

00:23:17.000 They like doge.

00:23:18.000 They like the cuts.

00:23:19.000 They like the transparency.

00:23:21.000 So these judges, you know, initially what they do is they try and get a temporary restraining order, it's called, to stop whatever actions the president has.

00:23:28.000 has dictated need to happen, executive orders and such.

00:23:32.000 And eventually, we have seen time and time again since we've been here that we win.

00:23:37.000 We get it up to another level.

00:23:38.000 It gets reversed.

00:23:39.000 They appeal.

00:23:41.000 And now in this instance, the Supreme Court, which says a lot because the Supreme Court takes cases infrequently.

00:23:47.000 They take the cases that they feel are very important.

00:23:49.000 And they're busy.

00:23:51.000 And they're deciding major constitutional issues, major American issues that will always affect our country.

00:23:59.000 Those are historic decisions.

00:24:01.000 And last night, very late in the wee hours, they said, nope, sorry, you cannot say that.

00:24:06.000 They cannot do it.

00:24:07.000 And I think this is going to be the first of many.

00:24:09.000 We know birthright citizenship is another issue that will probably end up with SCOTUS. And that's what we have ethical judges for.

00:24:17.000 Now, that doesn't mean they all are.

00:24:18.000 That doesn't mean they aren't politically motivated on the lower levels.

00:24:21.000 And that doesn't mean that, you know, I know what they do.

00:24:23.000 These AGs and DAs, I've seen it firsthand for years, as you know.

00:24:27.000 They pick judges, they select venues, they forum shop, and then they file things so that...

00:24:33.000 They can go and attack Trump, and it's frankly not working.

00:24:37.000 So I want to reiterate this, though.

00:24:39.000 The current left's plan is to overwhelm the Supreme Court workload, issue 500 injunctions, and SCOTUS can't quickly undo all of them.

00:24:50.000 This is a theme that we've seen, though, of this out-of-control judiciary in Brazil, Romania, Israel.

00:24:58.000 And so is the plan to escalate all of this to the Supreme Court?

00:25:02.000 You are a lawyer.

00:25:04.000 Walk me through it, please.

00:25:06.000 Absolutely.

00:25:07.000 we will take it as far as we need to go.

00:25:10.000 And it's unfortunately, the reality is that they're making us waste American taxpayer resources on this.

00:25:15.000 But we will take it, Charlie, as far as we need to go.

00:25:18.000 If that means SCOTUS, that means SCOTUS.

00:25:20.000 We are not going to quit and we are not going to stop fighting.

00:25:23.000 What we are doing is absolutely in the president's domain, in his job description, he is running the country and he is doing so amazingly.

00:25:32.000 And we have to continue to fight any roadblock that they put in front of us.

00:25:36.000 And we will.

00:25:37.000 and we are committed to it.

00:25:38.000 I sit right next to White House Counsel's office.

00:25:40.000 I speak.

00:25:41.000 With DOJ, Daley, you know, we are literally going to continue to tackle every single thing that they do.

00:25:48.000 And Pam is the best person to lead that charge. 1.00

00:25:51.000 So, Alina, the rapid pace is making people have a little bit of whiplash.

00:25:56.000 Democrats can't even remember all the things they're supposed to be mad about because Trump and the team is moving so quickly.

00:26:02.000 Finally, the team was assembled.

00:26:04.000 Can you tell us any other takeaways from the cabinet meeting yesterday, this historic assembly?

00:26:14.000 Yeah, let me tell you something that I haven't shared, which is when the cameras left the room.

00:26:19.000 When the cameras left the room, the cabinet sat and...

00:26:23.000 All discussed what items they have been doing, briefed the president as a cabinet does, and the president was engaged.

00:26:30.000 He was asking questions.

00:26:31.000 He asked for action.

00:26:33.000 He asked for swift action.

00:26:34.000 But there was not one thing that was not turned.

00:26:38.000 There was not one thing that he forgot.

00:26:40.000 There was not one question he didn't ask from a cabinet member that he needed to know so that he could make sure we were on pace to do things the way he wants to do it, but more importantly, to get the American people results.

00:26:50.000 And more importantly, Charlie, this is what I love about this administration.

00:26:53.000 There was support.

00:26:55.000 If one cabinet member said they were working on something, another said, oh, I think I can help because I know about this.

00:27:01.000 And there was coordination and everybody was giving their thoughts and being respectful and supportive.

00:27:06.000 There was no knifing.

00:27:07.000 There was no sleepy Joe.

00:27:09.000 It was truly the way our republic is supposed to work.

00:27:12.000 Alina, thank you so much for your great work.

00:27:15.000 I hope to see you on White House grounds soon.

00:27:18.000 We have your back 100%.

00:27:19.000 Any final thoughts for our audience?

00:27:21.000 30 seconds.

00:27:22.000 I just think that you should be so proud and know that whatever you see in the news is just a minuscule amount of what we're doing.

00:27:29.000 We are really fighting hard for you and we are going to continue to do so.

00:27:32.000 There's not a day we won't.

00:27:33.000 Thank you, Alina.

00:27:34.000 Talk to you soon.

00:27:35.000 God bless you.

00:27:35.000 Thank you.

00:27:36.000 Thank you, Charlie.

00:27:37.000 God bless.

00:27:40.000 Maybe you are one of the borrowers in America that has a private distressed student loan.

00:27:46.000 If so, listen carefully.

00:27:48.000 Did you know that private student loan debt in America totals about $300 billion?

00:27:52.000 About $45 billion is labeled as distressed.

00:27:55.000 YReFi does not care what your credit score is.

00:27:57.000 When the payment on your distressed or defaulted private student loan is so big that you can't ever get ahead in your finances, YReFi is surely your best option.

00:28:06.000 Why Refi can save you thousands of dollars by refinancing and even lower your total cost.

00:28:11.000 Why Refi refinances distressed and defaulted private student loans, which are different from federal loans.

00:28:17.000 Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless.

00:28:22.000 They've even lost hope.

00:28:23.000 Why Refi gives you a light at the end of the tunnel.

00:28:25.000 Let's face it, if you have distressed or defaulted private student loans, nobody is coming to bail you out, and bankruptcy is not an option, but you could take charge of your situation by contacting YReFi.

00:28:35.000 So go to YReFi.com.

00:28:36.000 That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com.

00:28:39.000 They've been great supporters and great partners.

00:28:41.000 That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com.

00:28:44.000 Y-R-E-F-Y.com.

00:28:46.000 So check it out right now.

00:28:47.000 YReFi.com.

00:28:50.000 So Jake Tapper.

00:28:52.000 Who, of course, was largely responsible for all of the Russiagate stuff, is out with a new book.

00:28:57.000 I don't want to even plug his new book, so instead I'm going to mock it.

00:29:00.000 The book is called Original Sin.

00:29:03.000 President Biden's decline, its cover-up, and his disastrous choice to run again.

00:29:09.000 Now, some ways, I'm actually pleased this is the direction that Democrats are going.

00:29:14.000 It's not totally incorrect.

00:29:16.000 It's just incomplete.

00:29:18.000 Of course, Joe Biden being a failed, dementia-ridden, senile individual who was president and was going to run and then had Kamala run, that played a role.

00:29:29.000 But it's so much deeper than that.

00:29:32.000 And at its core, elections are about values.

00:29:35.000 Elections are about worldview.

00:29:37.000 And the Democrats are going to go all in saying, oh, we lost just because of Biden, because he had bad mental decline.

00:29:44.000 However, do you remember when you were not even allowed to mention?

00:29:48.000 That Joe Biden had senility or mental decline?

00:29:51.000 That Joe Biden was losing it?

00:29:56.000 The same people who helped cover up Joe Biden's senility are now writing books about their own misconduct because there is money to be made.

00:30:05.000 It's so perfect that Jake Tapper is writing this.

00:30:09.000 He is such a fraud.

00:30:11.000 This is Jake Tapper, who, by the way, Jake Tapper...

00:30:15.000 Played into all of this, like, oh, Charlie Kirk's an anti-Semite thing over the summer at the RNC. They were so close to crossing a line where I could sue them.

00:30:24.000 So close.

00:30:25.000 You had all these blowhards. 1.00

00:30:27.000 And they never apologized.

00:30:28.000 I'll never forget that.

00:30:30.000 I was honored, thanks to President Trump and Susie Wiles and the whole team, they gave me a primetime address at the RNC. And I was super honored.

00:30:42.000 It was amazing.

00:30:43.000 One of the great moments of my life.

00:30:44.000 CNN didn't cover the speech.

00:30:46.000 That's fine.

00:30:46.000 I don't expect them to cover it.

00:30:47.000 But instead, while I was speaking, they went on a 10-minute diatribe calling me an anti-Semite.

00:30:53.000 Now, there are a lot of things that you can call Charlie Kirk, but calling me an anti-Semite, that's really rich. 0.95

00:31:02.000 Blake laughs.

00:31:03.000 I said, of all the different things that you could accuse Charlie Kirk of, saying that I'm anti-Semitic, I'm a phileo-Semite. 0.84

00:31:12.000 I love...

00:31:14.000 Jews and Judaism and Israel.

00:31:16.000 It's really something coming from Jake Tapper.

00:31:20.000 This is the same guy who dated Monica Lewinsky.

00:31:22.000 Not a great decision maker.

00:31:24.000 Play cut 226. I think what we see on stage with Joe Biden, Jake, is very clearly a cognitive decline.

00:31:31.000 That's what I'm referring to.

00:31:32.000 It makes me uncomfortable to watch the money on stage search for questions and try and figure out an answer.

00:31:40.000 A cognitive decline.

00:31:41.000 But when you're trying to tell me that what I was suggesting was a stuttering, I have no idea, Joe Biden.

00:31:46.000 I think you were mocking his stutter, and I think you have absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody's cognitive decline.

00:31:52.000 Cognitive Decline.

00:31:53.000 And now he has an entire book dedicated to this exact topic.

00:32:00.000 This book will all be spin.

00:32:02.000 It's going to be total BS, obviously.

00:32:04.000 Original sin.

00:32:05.000 I will say, though, I will do this.

00:32:08.000 Jake Tapper, if you want to sell books, you should come on the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:32:14.000 You get a lot of clicks.

00:32:16.000 If you really want attention and you really want to move books, Don't just do the view and all that.

00:32:25.000 You were part of the cover-up.

00:32:28.000 You were the ones that covered up the crime scene and said that we were disinformation artists.

00:32:34.000 People lost access to their social media for saying that Joe Biden had mental decline.

00:32:39.000 And now it's, oh, Joe Biden obviously has mental decline.

00:32:42.000 Here's an entire book out.

00:32:44.000 It's outrageous.

00:32:45.000 These people have no shame whatsoever.

00:32:47.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
