00:00:56.000The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold, the leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends, and viewers.
00:04:50.000But as Charlie Kirk knew better than anybody, there is no substitute for victory, right?
00:04:58.000We've got to keep, if we lose the midterms, the entire revolution is going to get ground down.
00:05:04.000Charlie Kirk knew this is what Amfest, the theme of this was going to be driving forward, what we have to do to drive forward with victory.
00:05:11.000In the case of there are going to be some people in this movement that fundamentally disagree on some pretty basic stuff.
00:05:54.000And by the way, if they try and tell you that some consensus has been reached on an issue without this public debate, without having it out, we're not going to believe it anyways.
00:06:02.000The kids aren't going to believe it anyways.
00:06:20.000For the period, I'm working on a little secret operation that will be revealed at a later time this weekend.
00:06:28.000So I'm not just sitting here texting away some logistic issues that we're dealing with for something that I think everybody is going to be very interested in finding out tomorrow.
00:06:39.000And that's really all I can leave it at that.
00:08:56.000First of all, I'm so proud of you guys of how you continue the tradition of Charlie Kirk.
00:09:03.000It's been so easy for Erica and Andrew and you and Tyler and Jack and you, all you guys, to just throw it in, throw in the towel and say, hey, you know, we can't do this.
00:13:15.000Tell us what this means to you to be here in Charlie's honor.
00:13:19.000It means everything to be here in Charlie's honor, to see what it's turned into, to see from being there in the very early days with Charlie, seeing the vision, everything, and then seeing all these amazing people.
00:13:31.000Let's give it up for Charlie one more time.
00:13:35.000I do have the honor of speaking tomorrow night, which I think it's funny that you guys put me on Faith Night to try to calm me down on what I might say on the stage.
00:13:55.000So I'll take this opportunity just to say I agree with Steve very much.
00:13:59.000You know, just like we were talking about, the thing about our movement is this.
00:14:03.000I was talking with the vice president not too long ago, and the vice president even said, the greatest thing about our side that differentiates us from the left is we do have open dialogue.
00:14:22.000But at least you know we don't operate in this hive mind mentality that somebody can call down from the top and then everybody falls in line.
00:14:32.000These are conversations that need to be had.
00:14:34.000These are fights that need to be had to the people that do what we do that are afraid and give these blanket statements instead of calling out what they mean, who they're talking about, why they disagree, and their evidence for why they disagree about it.
00:14:50.000It's time to stand up, be men and women, stand in the principles of which you believe, and have the fight, have The dialogue in open space and then let the American people decide where they stand, and then that's how we win.
00:15:03.000Charlie would be the first person to say that these conversations need to happen because he was mission-first mentality.
00:15:10.000And the mission is to make heaven crowded.
00:15:15.000We keep America the freest, most generous, most prosperous nation in the world free so we can spread the good news of Jesus Christ every single day because that's the ultimate goal in this country and that's the mission that we have to fight.
00:15:28.000All right, so for the well said, Graham, for those of you who may not know yet, Blake Neff is a student of history.
00:15:34.000He's a student of political, philosophical, religious history, European history.
00:19:15.000My name is Rod White, and of course, Charlie is irreplaceable.
00:19:20.000But if there was one individual that's taken up the cross, maybe better than anyone else, that you see with this amazing future, could you just name that one individual?
00:19:31.000I mean, that's a tough question, but I will say that, you know, I think JD Vance, obviously he's the vice president, so it's a little different, but I can just tell you that he has.
00:19:43.000Charlie was a huge believer in the political talent, the moral clarity, the intelligence of JD Vance.
00:19:51.000And I think he's really stepped into the void and waded into conversations.
00:19:55.000He didn't have to, but he's doing it for the sake of the movement, for the sake of the country.
00:19:59.000And so I give him a lot of credit for what he's done.
00:20:02.000I love Ellie Beth Stookie, by the way.
00:20:58.000And it's just been amazing seeing how since Charlie's tragically passed, how everybody's been unified and wanting to get involved and meet people and talk about really, really hard things.
00:21:43.000There were some people who were really kind of, I don't know, they were really motivated by it, but some other people were not so and kind of seemed almost to rejoice in his death.
00:22:40.000Graham, when you hear young people talk like that, and when you realize when you see the good versus evil, I don't know, when I'm listening to that, it's crystallizing for me.
00:22:49.000Yeah, we're going to have our squabbles here, but we got bigger fights, bigger fish to fry, if you will.
00:22:54.000Yeah, I think everybody, I mean, everybody knew how powerful and impactful Charlie was.
00:23:00.000I think every one of us, especially those of us that are parents, my own children coming up to me, you know, I knew that they knew who Charlie was because we've worked with Charlie and Turning Point for so long, but seeing my own children crying because they were watching Charlie all the time, and I had no idea.
00:23:16.000Charlie had such an impact on our younger generations that even us as parents were kind of oblivious to learning about Jesus through Charlie Kirk, which is the ultimate thing.
00:23:28.000That's the biggest thing that Charlie wanted to do all the time was introduce our Lord and Savior to not just our next generation, but the current generation.
00:23:37.000Charlie knew everything about everything, it seemed.
00:23:42.000The impact that he made, the once-in-a-jur generation person that Charlie Kirk was, I think that we're going to feel it for generations to come.
00:23:51.000And I truly believe that if we can get this infighting out of the way and these squabbles out of the way, we still have the chance that Charlie talked about to be and have America prosper for the next millennia if we do it the right way and we get it done the right way.
00:24:06.000Well, that's why AmFest is the time it is.
00:26:22.000So I just want to say that, you know, if it wasn't for Charlie, I wouldn't have the ability to go do this, like you said.
00:26:28.000And it's been such an incredible year for Frontlines because the administration has been listening to everything we have been putting out.
00:26:35.000We actually were able to go and do an Antifa roundtable where we had the ear of the president and we were able to sit down with him and talk to him about everything that we've reported as it pertains to left-wing violence.
00:26:46.000And then on top of that, I was in New York actually reporting on Canal Street because Frontlines Deep USA sends me all across the nation from both the West Coast to the East Coast.
00:26:56.000And I was reporting on this huge street of illegal immigrants that had a black market.
00:27:01.000A couple days later, ICE went and they raided that area and they deported nine illegal immigrants from that street.
00:27:09.000So the administration very much watching our work.
00:27:13.000The admin very much paying attention to the independent journalists that Charlie initially saw the value in before anybody else did.
00:27:20.000I've been working with you guys now for three, almost four years.
00:27:23.000We've brought in hundreds of millions of views on our own.
00:27:28.000Yeah, the views, guys, truly, we get so much viral content out of this because you, the people, want it.
00:27:46.000He's been daring on doing all this stuff.
00:27:48.000So, yeah, but the number of views, like, you know, you get, it feels like every week you've got another post with like a couple million views about, you know, some immigration thing, Antifa thing.
00:27:59.000I mean, how much of that is your motivation?
00:28:02.000Or you just, how do you pick your stories, I guess is the question?
00:28:05.000I mean, we're following the news cycle.
00:28:06.000Luckily for me, the mainstream media does a horrific job at actually telling the American people the truth.
00:28:12.000So we're basically just focusing in on everything that they are ignoring, and the American people love it.
00:28:19.000And so the reason we're getting the viewership that we are, the reason why Frontlines has been able to be so successful is because the American people want to see this.
00:28:27.000The American people want to know what's going on.
00:28:31.000So again, every single day, I am grateful to Charlie because he saw the value in independent journalists like myself before anybody else did.
00:28:40.000He made sure that we were able to tell the truth about what was going on in the streets of America as it pertains to illegal immigration.
00:28:46.000And we were able to, because we were able to show Americans that, get him, you know, into the White House essentially, or show Americans, you know, which way to vote, essentially.
00:29:39.000For the last year and a half, I covered the previous administration, the Joe Biden White House, where I was very limited to the amount of access that I could get.
00:29:46.000I was not allowed in the Oval Office where now I'm allowed in the Oval Office with the president.
00:29:51.000I wasn't allowed to ask the questions in the press briefing room because I was never called on.
00:29:57.000I'm standing along the sides of the press briefing room, asking the questions, getting called on, having those personal one-on-one meetings with Press Secretary Caroline Levitt.
00:30:09.000The access that we're getting, we've been on the North Lawn, South Lawn, East Room, Roosevelt Room, Air Force One.
00:30:15.000I had the privilege of traveling with President Trump to Charlie's funeral memorial service in Arizona.
00:30:21.000That was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
00:30:23.000And honestly, it made me pretty emotional because I knew that if it wasn't for Turning Point USA, if it wasn't for Charlie Kirk, I don't think I would have had this opportunity.
00:30:31.000So I am so grateful to be there, not only for Turning Point USA and Frontlines, but on behalf of you, the American people, because I'm asking your questions.
00:30:40.000I'm not asking my network or my mainstream media establishment questions.
00:30:51.000So, what I love about Balance of Nature's whole health system is getting a wide variety of whole food ingredients into my diet, into my routine, and it makes it so easy.
00:31:02.000What sets them apart is you know the ingredients are well sourced, they're healthy, they're exactly what your body needs.
00:33:05.000They try to blend the two, but there's a difference.
00:33:08.000The ultra MAGA, legal immigrants that come here and want to make that want to assimilate into America versus the illegals that want to destroy America.
00:34:42.000And Savannah, you were just telling me about an important story.
00:34:45.000Guys, I brought up immigration a few times here, specifically because you're here, Savannah, but also just because I'm passionate about it.
00:34:52.000You just told me a fact that I was not aware of, and I want everybody to listen very closely to this.
00:34:57.000So I was just talking with you about how last week the DHS put out a press release basically stating that between the sanctuary states of Illinois and New York, they have released 8,700 criminal illegal aliens with prior ties to homicide, assault, burglary, robbery back out onto the streets of the United States of America.
00:35:18.000That's 8,700 violent criminals that have been released back out onto the streets, even though they've got an ice detainer on them, even though the federal government wants to deport them.
00:35:28.000These local municipalities are just releasing them back out onto the street.
00:35:52.000I just saw, there was a story, I think, in Reston, Virginia, where they had a detainer on a man, they let him out, and he committed murder again.
00:35:59.000After a while, I think you do have to ask: are you just actually an accomplice in assaults, in robberies, and homicides at this point?
00:36:08.000And Blake, if I can jump in as well, going back to these numbers, there's another 11,000.
00:36:13.000And keep in mind, too, that these are already illegal aliens and then they've committed violent crimes against American citizens.
00:36:18.000They're currently in custody, in state custody in Illinois and New York.
00:36:22.000And because these jurisdictions refuse to work with federal agents, they are simply potentially going to be re-releasing all of these people back out onto the streets.
00:37:00.000When I think about what she's been through and how courageous and brave and the poise and the gracefulness that she has comported herself, I just, it's enough to make you emotional watching it.
00:38:04.000We have, so that's 25 countries, all 50 states, 178 sponsors, 40 breakout sessions, everybody, and 31,000 patriots from all across the country and the world.
00:38:40.000So as you guys go out into the breakouts, make sure you're plugging in with other organizations, with this organization, signing up, being volunteers, getting out into the field, action, action, action.
00:38:52.000This is not an event for mere spectators or observers.
00:38:55.000We want you to be active and get involved every way you can.
00:40:19.000First off, I should break the Omerite here and just be a little bit clear.
00:40:22.000The notion that people in our industry are close friends, like we all take holiday breaks with each other and go to each other's kids' graduations and stuff, is generally untrue.
00:40:30.000Some people do that, most of us don't.
00:40:32.000But even if it were true that other public figures were our best friends, our very best friends, that does not relieve us of our duty to speak out of principle and not to cover up evil or shy away from addressing it out of friendship.
00:40:45.000So no, Tucker Carlson, it is not an excuse to go silent on Candace's targeting of TPUSA.
00:40:51.000There is only one moral side here, Erica Kirk's side.
00:40:56.000All right, Mike, I'm going to go to you.
00:40:58.000We were talking in the break that you had some opinions about this.
00:43:56.000But this is like, are you getting the vote out?
00:43:58.000And if you're not getting the vote out, keep it to yourself.
00:44:00.000I mean, the K-Fabe line is pretty funny because one of the older, weirder, dumber conspiracy theories we'd have about Charlie is that all of the speeches are dictated or pre-planned.
00:44:12.000I think we successfully debunked that one last night.
00:44:16.000Yeah, I actually, I don't know if he ended up doing it, but I told Knowles, I was like, you know what you should do?
00:44:19.000It's just be like, well, I guess we know that Charlie doesn't, and Turning Point don't tell people what to say from the stage.
00:44:48.000I'm going to paraphrase it, but you basically tweeted something.
00:44:51.000And by the way, you've got to follow Cernovich on X. He's one of the key followers if you want to understand the heartbeat of the movement.
00:44:58.000Mike, you said something, again, paraphrasing, that when you look to who you take your cues from, you're going to give a lot more credit to the people that are actually in the field doing the work.
00:45:08.000And you're going to downgrade the people that just basically sit behind a camera and aren't doing the work.
00:45:41.000It's idolatry, first of all, to have this weird parasocial relationship with podcasters.
00:45:47.000I always tell people, don't act weird around me because that's a sin for you and a sin for me too, because then it leads me to ego and pride and everything else.
00:45:55.000What matters is, like, are you driving out the vote?
00:46:13.000But if you're not converting that to votes, and you're only converting that to merch, to an email list, to selling things, you're creating an idol of yourself, which is demonic.
00:46:24.000You're encouraging a false catharsis and a false consciousness of your own audience, and you're leading them into deception.
00:46:34.000So that's what people don't understand.
00:46:35.000You guys know what Turning Point knows, and that's why I was a day one supporter of Turning Point.
00:46:40.000Back when Charlie had the socialism sucks t-shirts, and I've always supported you guys, even no matter who goes after you, because I don't want to knock on doors.
00:46:49.000I want to be lazy at home with my kids.
00:46:52.000So I feel like if you want to be at home on social media, you better be promoting the heck out of the people that are doing the door knocking because that's how you win elections.
00:47:40.000People are definitely concerned about the midterms, but I think they're also optimistic.
00:47:44.000And I think the vibe is still, you know, be honest, it's not as great as it was coming into 2024, but I think it's still positive.
00:47:53.000And I think people realize that victory is still ours to have.
00:47:56.000Like Mike said, we get out there and we do it.
00:47:58.000And, you know, when I was out there helping Turning Point Action in their recall election for Dorian Taylor here in Mesa, I see those armies of people out there volunteering.
00:51:13.000I've been watching Charlie for years and I particularly loved when he went to the college campuses to debate women on the abortion issue and the unborn.
00:51:22.000And so I work for an organization called Save the Storks.
00:51:25.000And we're here and it's our first time at Amfest.
00:51:27.000And we want to honor Charlie's legacy by raising money for a mobile medical clinic in Erika Kirk's name in his honor that will serve women, that will love on women with hope and compassion when they come on our clinic and they see their baby for the first time.
00:51:59.000A friend of mine from Fresno, California, but more important than the birthday is what you're working on.
00:52:05.000Tell us about the organization, what you guys do.
00:52:07.000Yes, so I sit on the board for BetrayalProjectUSA.org, and we give voices to the 1.6 million victims who were killed in U.S. hospitals on U.S. soil due to the mandated and government-incendivized hospital COVID protocols.
00:53:56.000So why don't you just explain what's going on in your country and what happened to your father?
00:54:01.000Yeah, so my father got arrested because of the wrong interpretation of election law and because my father criticized the candidates for pushing LGBT agenda and walkism into schools.
00:54:15.000My father got arrested for being too political from the pulpit and also speaking out against the candidate for promising to appoint 30% of the public sector positions for sexual minorities, which is absurd.
00:54:30.000As a pastor, my father had to speak out, and because of that very reason, my father got arrested.
00:54:35.000And it's been 103rd day, marking 103rd day today.
00:54:48.000If I am imprisoned, it will prove that Korea is no longer free.
00:54:53.000Reverend Chan Bo Son made that statement just before entering the police station for a pre-trial hearing on September 8th.
00:55:01.000Despite being a preliminary session, the court approved his arrest warrant and detained him immediately.
00:55:09.000Charges against Pastor Son include violating election laws, specifically for interviewing a candidate on issues the government interpreted as illegal campaigning.
00:55:20.000Authorities cited risk of flight and destroying evidence as the reasons for his detention.
00:55:40.000They're losing the constitutional rights that we are born with.
00:55:44.000So free speech is basically being violated in Korea.
00:55:48.000And if you have enough influence, even as a pastor, you're not allowed to speak out, even if the biblical values are being harmed.
00:55:57.000Yeah, and one of Charlie's passions was ensuring that we, the people in the church pews, have our voice.
00:56:04.000So Charlie, that's why we have TPUSA Faith, to say that there is a vacuum in the culture, and if we don't fill it as Christians, then people that don't share our values are going to do it.
00:56:13.000And we're not going to like the outcome, okay?
00:56:27.000I was thankfully invited by the White House Faith Office a month back to be able to share my father's story.
00:56:33.000And they are aware of this situation and they're trying to find ways to help out.
00:56:38.000But we need not only Koreans, but Christians, brothers and sisters in Christ, to speak out for religious freedom and also our constitutional rights.
00:56:48.000Because Korean Constitution is written off based off the U.S. Constitution.
00:56:53.000So we must ensure constitutional rights, freedom, free speech, religious freedom.
00:56:59.000However, it's being violated and they're taking away our freedom.
00:57:03.000So we need you, Americans, and the government, to push to tell the Korean government that this is not right.
00:57:46.000So before we get into this very important segment, I want to put a bow on the last one.
00:57:51.000So if you want to support Pastor Sun out of South Korea who's been in prison for his political beliefs because he happens to be a pastor, throw this QR code up there, please.
00:58:03.000So everybody, put it up there, the QR code.
00:58:06.000If you scan that QR code, everybody out there, get your phones out, take a picture.
00:58:11.000You can sign the petition, sign the petition, get involved in freeing this man who spoke up for his faith, who spoke up for his country, and was imprisoned two weeks after Charlie met him.
00:58:23.000By the way, it's just the whole thing is insane.
00:58:27.000And the timing you have to imagine for South Korea is providential.
00:59:14.000It's great to have all you guys here today.
00:59:16.000The energy is through the roof, isn't it?
00:59:19.000We are so excited because at Turning Point Action, we're going to be turning the page into 2026, which is going to be the make or break year to save our country.
00:59:27.000People have asked me all over this weekend, you know, what's at stake in 2026?
00:59:31.000The short answer is everything that we have worked so hard to make happen.
00:59:35.000And right now, Indiana is a little bit at the epicenter of conservative politics right now.
00:59:41.000We just got done fighting a big fight in Indiana at the state house among these Republican legislators that refused to vote yes to a 9-0 map, allowing us conservatives to be in the best possible position to compete to win back the House of Representatives next year.
00:59:55.000But then on top of that, that's only a small sliver of what we've been doing at Turning Point Action.
00:59:59.000We're building the pieces so we can build that red wall that allows us to compete in 2028.
01:00:06.000And so that's what Brandon is here for today.
01:00:07.000That's what we're really excited to talk about.
01:01:07.000Yeah, no, describe this because New Hampshire never voted for Donald Trump, for example, in any of those three elections.
01:01:13.000So what's changing in the state that makes it part of a red wall?
01:01:16.000Well, so that was the swing state that Trump lost by the slimmest margin.
01:01:20.000And let's just compare New Hampshire to a state like Wisconsin, which was one of the red wall states in 2024.
01:01:26.000The thing that New Hampshire has over Wisconsin is twofold.
01:01:29.000One, a Republican governor, so it's a lot easier for us to build that infrastructure.
01:01:34.000And then two, more registered Republicans than registered Democrats.
01:01:39.000A state like Wisconsin, for instance, does not register by party, so it's really hard to model.
01:01:43.000It's really hard to create shapefiles, and it allows us to target voters in kind of just an improper way.
01:01:48.000In New Hampshire, there's a huge Libertarian faction.
01:01:50.000There's a huge chaseable independent faction.
01:01:52.000And more importantly, there are more Republicans.
01:01:54.000So that's what makes us very intrigued by New Hampshire and why we're really excited to be launching our full-scale ballot chase operation over the next four years in the granite state.
01:02:06.000So Arizona was a great example of what turning point action can do when we do the get out the vote, chase the vote operation, right?
01:02:14.000So we had full employment, thousands of volunteers, door knocking.
01:02:19.000And what we do, and I don't want to give away the secret sauce too much, but some of this is public, is we divide the state into these very bite-sized little chunks.
01:02:27.000And we assign people on those territories.
01:02:30.000And then their job is to contact everybody on their list, low-prop, conservative, probably Republican voters.
01:02:37.000And we knock on their door, we text them, we call them, we're nice to them, we'd be their neighbor, you try and be the mayor of your little territory, you invite them to things, you get them involved so that when election month comes, They already know who you are.
01:03:04.000Arizona became the best performing swing state in 2024 because of the work that Brett and his team and Tyler Boyer and Turning Point Action did getting out the vote.
01:03:28.000So that's the power of actually doing the machinery of getting out low-prop votes.
01:03:33.000So what people don't fully understand, they still don't grasp this yet, is that in the era of Trump that we have become the low-prop party.
01:03:40.000The whole makeup of the conservative movement has changed.
01:03:43.000Now they have the more reliable voters, but we have more of them.
01:03:47.000And that's why you're seeing us win national popular votes at the presidential level in 2024.
01:03:52.000So our job then becomes a little bit trickier because we have to do the work to get them out.
01:03:57.000That's why what we're doing in New Hampshire is so critical.
01:04:00.000That's why what we're doing in Nevada is going to be so critical.
01:04:03.000Because if we can make these permanent outposts of Republican Party control, conservative movement, then we're going to have a massive, massive advantage over Democrats.
01:04:13.000Because the way the census has changed, the way that voters have moved out of blue states and northern states and gone to the Sunbelt, the math doesn't work for them the same way it did previously.
01:04:23.000And so if we have New Hampshire, Nevada, Arizona, if we can hold those, they are going to have a very, very tough time winning a national election in the future.
01:04:32.000So let's go over to our New Hampshire man, Brandon Malley here.
01:04:41.000Explain the dynamics inside New Hampshire because something people don't understand is that we have more Republicans than Democrats, but there's a lot of independents.
01:04:52.000So since 2018, the Republican voter registration numbers have gotten better and better with each election, regardless of whether it's been a good year for Republicans or not.
01:05:06.000Two, there's a big libertarian movement in New Hampshire that leans more Republican.
01:05:12.000It's probably the biggest libertarian operation of any state in the country.
01:05:18.000In fact, there's even a project called the Free State Project that's getting people to move to the state of New Hampshire to make it more conservative-minded, to make it a free state.
01:05:30.000It's the live-free or die state for a reason.
01:05:34.000The state legislature and the governor are Republican.
01:05:38.000They're reflective of that on the state level.
01:05:40.000What we have to do is be reflective of that on a federal level.
01:06:16.000Well, actually, it's surprising because every four years, New Hampshire gets the attention of the political universe, right?
01:06:24.000It's the center, first in the nation primary, which, by the way, many people in the state are upset that the Democrats are trying to take away.
01:06:33.000So we're going to be in defense of that, number one.
01:06:36.000Number two, it's important to have year-round infrastructure.
01:06:40.000It's amazing in the six months that I've been there, that I've witnessed everything on the ground, how little infrastructure is in place outside of the presidential primary.
01:06:51.000So we are going to be the preeminent organization putting bodies on the ground, chasing the low-propensity Republican voters, and teaching the grassroots and the conservative base how to actually win elections outside of primaries.
01:07:27.000Yeah, well, I mean, what Brandon was alluding to, and it's a fascinating concept.
01:07:31.000In New Hampshire, without an organized ballot chase effort, without really a ton of outside groups besides the legacy party apparatus that exists there, we're only losing elections in New Hampshire by the skin of our teeth.
01:07:43.000Would you imagine if we essentially carpet bomb New Hampshire now with a bunch of paid bodies on the ground, a bunch of volunteers that are trained on the concepts that you talked about, Andrew, relational organizing, neighbors talking to other neighbors, it really puts us in a big position here to move the needle, not just a little bit in New Hampshire, but permanently in our corner for decades to come.
01:08:03.000New Hampshire has that ability, and that's why we're really excited to invest long term.
01:08:08.000So, Brett, if people watching at home or they're listening, listening to the podcast, or people in this event space right now want to get involved in 2026, 2028, what do they do?
01:08:20.000So one, and many people don't actually know this, we own Coalitions.com at Turning Point Action.
01:08:27.000Our Coalitions program is our farm team.
01:08:29.000That is our volunteer field program where we organize, we recruit volunteers, we organize them, and then give them the tools necessary to be able to whip up votes, chase those votes in those extremely important precincts in their state.
01:08:50.000This is the concept of moms knocking on the doors of other moms, Latinos knocking on the doors of other Latinos, Gen Z knocking on the doors of other Gen Z.
01:08:59.000And so that's the concept that we're building.
01:09:01.000And then from there, and this is the beauty of the model that we've built, we can take the best of the best volunteers that are now trained in Turning Point Action concepts and essentially say to them, keep doing what you've already been doing, but now we'll pay you to ballot chase for us full-time through Chase the Vote.
01:09:16.000And that's what we're going to replicate in Arizona, Nevada, and New Hampshire.
01:09:20.000All right, and we are hiring in Indiana, right?
01:09:25.000We're looking for field representatives, right?
01:09:27.000Yeah, if you would have told me a year ago that Turning Point Action was going to be hiring in Indiana, I would have told you you were crazy.
01:09:33.000But about a month ago, Indiana became the last line of defense for us to be able to win back the House of Representatives next year.
01:09:40.000They had an opportunity to go from a 7-2 controlled map to a 9-0 Republican congressional map.
01:09:45.000Unfortunately, in an Indiana state senate that has 40 Republicans and only 10 Democrats, we couldn't get the 25 votes necessary for that map to pass.
01:09:54.000So now we want Indiana to be the cautionary tale of the century for these establishment folks.
01:09:58.000And we're going to go in, we're going to put bodies on the ground, and we're going to primary these senators that refuse to support President Trump.
01:10:15.000And knowing that Gavin Newsome stripped five Republican seats away from us in November with Prop 50, Indiana had an opportunity to really draw their line in the sand and reverse course.
01:10:24.000But the problem is, you have a state filled with MAGA Republicans ran by MAGA haters.
01:10:30.000And we saw that all over the place, the Mike Pence footprint, the Mitch Daniels footprint.
01:11:08.000All right, real quick, you were talking action, action, action.
01:11:11.000One other thing everyone needs to do across America, they've weaponized, the left has weaponized all of these rapid response networks against ICE and Border Patrol.
01:11:20.000We've got to be out in the streets supporting ICE and Border Patrol.
01:11:23.000We need mass deportations and mass prosecutions of everybody who's getting in the way and the injustice system against President Trump.
01:11:30.000But speaking of the fights that we're in and how important what Turning Point does, tell me your name again.
01:12:30.000And so I think it's just really important that if you just talk to people, expose yourselves to different ideas and think rationally instead of emotionally, that we can get along way in this country.
01:12:38.000So I'm kind of, this is my first time being here.
01:14:05.000We want high energy America first patriotism that will be coursing through America Fest and we're going to be sending a message to all the people in the swing states, to Washington, D.C.
01:14:19.000And yes, I don't just mean the Democrats, I mean the establishment Republicans as well.
01:14:25.000The rhinos, the people holding up the filibuster and the president's agenda.
01:14:31.000We're going to make our voices heard tonight.
01:15:13.000No, something tells me, though, that I think a few of the questions may be already floating around online, and I'm sure that Megan is, knowing Megan, is already more than prepared to answer them.
01:15:26.000Yeah, no, she, and by the way, Megan has been, she has been, I think she's going to react to maybe some of the criticism, but I will just tell you, Megan behind the scenes has been wonderful and very supportive, and you guys should know that.
01:16:53.000You know, I mean, I do have a reputation.
01:16:55.000Well, I want to wrap this up by just saying one thing is that I cannot get over how encouraging it is for us to see all of you here and how wonderful you guys have all been, how welcoming to each other.
01:17:08.000The energy in this room, it's hard to explain if you're not here, but it is extreme.
