00:02:42.000 Register now at tpaction.com/slash peoples.
00:02:53.000 I hope you had a great weekend.
00:02:55.000 It feels like a Monday, but it's a Tuesday.
00:02:57.000 This Tuesday usually has a feel.
00:02:59.000 Tuesday doesn't really have a feel, but it feels like a Monday, even though it is not.
00:03:03.000 Hope you had an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend.
00:03:06.000 More importantly, I hope you spent some time reflecting on those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
00:03:12.000 This last weekend, I was watching closely at the Libertarian Convention in Washington, D.C. Libertarianism used to be the dominant ideological view for young conservatives a decade ago.
00:03:30.000 If you were to go to CPAC, this is before Turning Point was really big and powerful.
00:03:36.000 If you were to go to any conservative event, it was dominated by libertarian influences.
00:03:43.000 When I first got started in the movement, the think tanks, the intellectual, the philosophical backbone of the movement was indeed libertarian.
00:03:55.000 It was rooted in an idea of getting the government out of our life.
00:04:01.000 And being a autodidact, meaning self-taught, being someone who loves to learn and to read, I went deep down the libertarian rabbit hole.
00:04:14.000 I read Lugu von Mises, Murray Rothbard, F.A. Hayek, Henry Hazlitt, Milton Friedman, read Thomas Sowell.
00:04:26.000 And I don't regret reading all those things.
00:04:28.000 The deeper you go, the deeper you go, the more you kind of go, you realize that there is something missing, but at the time, you're not quite making those connective points.
00:04:38.000 Read Ayn Rand, the entire libertarian canon, not all of it, I know quite well.
00:04:45.000 And if you listen to old Charlie Kirk videos, maybe seven or eight years ago, it was far more libertarian than I am today.
00:04:55.000 Now, full disclosure, I still have some libertarian views on certain issues.
00:05:01.000 For example, on guns, I'm very libertarian when it comes to your ability to own weapons.
00:05:06.000 I'm libertarian when it comes to forced vaccinations.
00:05:09.000 No one should be able to tell you to take a vaccine against your will.
00:05:14.000 I'm very libertarian when it comes to private property.
00:05:17.000 And I tend to agree a lot with libertarians when it comes to ending these reckless and adventurous foreign wars.
00:05:24.000 So I've personally been very involved in the libertarian world.
00:05:28.000 I know how they think and I know how they operate and I know how they view the world.
00:05:36.000 The convention this last weekend was really a sight to see.
00:05:42.000 You see, Joe Biden was invited.
00:05:44.000 Donald Trump was invited.
00:05:45.000 All the major candidates were invited to speak at the libertarian convention.
00:05:49.000 Now, let me be very clear.
00:05:51.000 The libertarian convention is much different than even Ron Paul or Mike Lee or Thomas Massey.
00:05:59.000 This is a clown show.
00:06:01.000 They debate whether or not we should have traffic lights.
00:06:03.000 I'm not exaggerating.
00:06:05.000 These are people that want to get rid of all child protection laws when it comes to pedophilia.
00:06:10.000 Some of them want to get rid of all forms of government laws when it comes to borders and disassembling the military.
00:06:20.000 They're closer to anarchists.
00:06:21.000 And this is actually what started my journey away from libertarianism.
00:06:28.000 When I would sit down with a group of libertarians, and essentially the old joke was the only true libertarian is left alone in a room.
00:06:37.000 He just starts kicking everyone else out because they're not libertarian enough.
00:06:40.000 Oh, you want police?
00:06:41.000 Get out of the room.
00:06:42.000 Oh, you want borders?
00:06:43.000 Get out of the room.
00:06:45.000 And it just becomes this zealous ideological purity exercise that is really silly.
00:06:54.000 And it should be like basically relegated to college campuses for 18 and 19 year olds that are, you know, tripping on acid and smoking a lot of weed.
00:07:02.000 I'm the true libertarian.
00:07:03.000 Yeah, okay, great.
00:07:04.000 And then you realize you can't build a political party that way.
00:07:07.000 It's also these ideas are kind of silly and stupid, getting rid of the police, opening borders, decriminalizing all drugs.
00:07:15.000 So what is libertarianism?
00:07:17.000 Libertarianism at its core is actually rather healthy.
00:07:22.000 It is skeptical of collectivist and statist power and a preference and a prioritization on individual initiative, natural rights, and the sovereignty of the individual.
00:07:36.000 You can read the U.S. Constitution and you could glean some libertarian elements there.
00:07:43.000 Libertarianism has lost its way in the last few years.
00:07:49.000 In the ideal, we should have some libertarian impulses in the Republican Party.
00:07:53.000 We should have some libertarian threads and foundations.
00:08:00.000 I think it's a good thing when Thomas Massey gets up there and says, no, we must read every bill and we must bring the power back to the states.
00:08:09.000 I think that's healthy.
00:08:10.000 I think it's healthy when Rand Paul wants to filibuster foreign aid.
00:08:14.000 That is an element that we must not lose.
00:08:16.000 And I sympathize with part of it.
00:08:18.000 But the Libertarian Party is totally different.
00:08:20.000 So Donald Trump accepted the invitation to attend the Libertarian Convention this last weekend.
00:08:29.000 Donald Trump is up in every major poll.
00:08:32.000 Donald Trump is up in the betting odds.
00:08:34.000 Those mean nothing.
00:08:35.000 And we'll get into that later in the hour.
00:08:37.000 Donald Trump is, quote, the favorite.
00:08:40.000 Yet Donald Trump is not running this campaign in 2024.
00:08:44.000 He's not playing it safe.
00:08:46.000 There's nothing safe with going to the Libertarian Convention as a former president, Republican, populist nationalist.
00:08:56.000 Now, if you are to be intellectually honest, which these libertarians are not, Donald Trump achieved more victories for long-held, deeply cherished libertarian objectives than any president in the modern era.
00:09:11.000 Not every issue, but on the issue of no new wars, on the issue of freedom of speech, on the issue of firearms and guns, on the issue of good constitutional judges, on the issue of 10th Amendment back to the states and private property rights.
00:09:27.000 Donald Trump was excellent when it comes to libertarian ideals.
00:09:32.000 So Donald Trump is not playing it safe.
00:09:34.000 And I love that about his attitude right now.
00:09:37.000 I believe he is being rewarded in the polls because he's willing to go to Bodegas, go into the Bronx, and go into the Libertarian Convention.
00:09:45.000 Just think of the last week that Donald Trump had.
00:09:47.000 He goes to the NASCAR deal in Charlotte and he's celebrated as this hero and this warrior.
00:09:54.000 He goes deep into the Bronx and is welcomed by black and Hispanic voters.
00:10:00.000 And then he goes into the Libertarian Convention, which is not friendly territory.
00:10:06.000 And he lays out an agenda that is non-compromising, non-appeasing, saying we're not going to agree with everything.
00:10:13.000 But here are some things that we will agree upon.
00:10:18.000 Talking about how I'm not going to start new wars, how the intel agencies will be reined in under my administration.
00:10:25.000 And what ensued, of course, was mass booing from these libertarians.
00:10:29.000 Now, let me just say this.
00:10:31.000 If the libertarians wanted to try to make themselves not seem like a pack of clowns, they made fools of themselves on a national scene.
00:10:42.000 I got messages from libertarians and people that tilt libertarian that said, what has happened to the libertarian party?
00:10:50.000 Where they are booing Donald Trump.
00:10:52.000 You know who they should be booing?
00:10:54.000 They should be booing Joe Biden and the regime.
00:10:57.000 The Libertarian Party is full of anti-government Antifa type Marxist libertarians that seem to want to be able to have every drug at their disposal and have a very weird fetish to get rid of pedophilia laws.
00:11:11.000 Just saying, they want license, not liberty.
00:11:16.000 Liberty is the ability to do what one ought to do.
00:11:19.000 License is to do whatever you want to do, regardless of your age, no protection.
00:11:24.000 It is more like anarchy.
00:11:26.000 So Donald Trump shows up to the convention and he is booed, but he handles it stoically.
00:11:34.000 He handles it beautifully because these lunatic clowns are booing him.
00:11:38.000 By the way, have some respect for a former president.
00:11:42.000 He's taking you seriously.
00:11:44.000 And you have to wonder, why are we taking you seriously?
00:11:46.000 Because Donald Trump wasn't talking to the clowns in the room.
00:11:49.000 Donald Trump was talking to the millions of people that tilt libertarian that are looking for somebody to vote for this November.
00:11:56.000 And it was a massive win.
00:11:58.000 And I'll tell you how it was in more ways than one.

00:13:16.000 Only if you want to win.
00:13:17.000 Maybe you don't want to win.
00:13:20.000 Maybe you don't want to win.
00:13:24.000 Thank you, Deroy.
00:13:26.000 Thank you.
00:13:26.000 No, only do that if you want to win.
00:13:29.000 If you want to lose, don't do that.
00:13:32.000 Keep getting you 3% every four years.
00:13:36.000 If Donald Trump handles the upcoming debate with Joe Biden, the way that he handled being booed at that libertarian convention, he's going to do just fine.
00:13:46.000 And no, libertarians don't want to win.
00:13:49.000 They just want to signal that they are the most libertarian.
00:13:53.000 I am the holiest.
00:13:56.000 I am the most pure Ayn Rand believer.
00:14:01.000 And Donald Trump is just a master of the crowd.
00:14:03.000 It's that pro-wrestling attitude where Trump says, okay, get your 3% every couple years.
00:14:09.000 Now, outside of the unhinged booing from the libertarians, Donald Trump got into the meat of policy.
00:14:17.000 And Donald Trump showing up at the end of the convention, I'm going to tell you what, it resulted in a massive, massive victory.
00:14:26.000 Donald Trump pledged not to go after crypto.
00:14:29.000 Now, this is a lesser reported, major, major issue right now.
00:14:34.000 There are over 50 million Americans, the vast majority of which under the age of 35, that own some form of Bitcoin or cryptocurrency.
00:14:43.000 Elizabeth Warren wants a Stalinistic, collectivist, statist takeover of your Bitcoin.
00:14:50.000 I personally own Bitcoin.
00:14:52.000 A lot of people own Bitcoin.
00:14:53.000 A lot of people have made money on Bitcoin.
00:14:55.000 A lot of people have lost money on Bitcoin.
00:14:57.000 You should have the freedom to use whatever currency that you choose.
00:15:02.000 This is a way to compete against the federal government, a way to compete against the Fed.
00:15:07.000 This alone was worth him going to the Libertarian Convention and announcing.
00:15:12.000 They were so unhinged, they were just booing him like a bunch of clowns.
00:15:16.000 But this was heard by millions, especially of that kind of Rogan bro listener demographic.
00:15:24.000 Remember, last election was determined by 42,000 ballots.
00:15:28.000 So this 1 to 3% Libertarian vote in states like Arizona and Georgia and Pennsylvania is significant.
00:15:37.000 Imagine you are a crypto bro in Philadelphia.
00:15:41.000 You can go waste your vote away with one of the third-party candidates, or you can vote for Trump, who will protect your ability to own cryptocurrency.
00:15:51.000 Play cut 22.
00:15:53.000 I will ensure that the future of crypto and the future of Bitcoin will be made in the USA, not driven overseas.
00:16:00.000 I will support the right to self-custody to the nation's 50 million crypto holders.
00:16:06.000 I say this with your vote.
00:16:08.000 I will keep Elizabeth Warren and her goons away from your Bitcoin.
00:16:14.000 And I will never allow the creation of a central bank digital currency.
00:16:20.000 I will never allow the creation of a central bank digital currency.
00:16:24.000 Let's take a step back.
00:16:25.000 If you're a true libertarian, not just a freak show, shouldn't you want someone who's going to push back against the coming World Economic Forum globalist reset?
00:16:35.000 That right there is a gut punch to the World Economic Forum that we will not do CBDC.
00:16:41.000 Out of all the other issues that you as a libertarian can care about, currency has always been one of the top issues.
00:16:48.000 Donald Trump is basically saying, I will not co-sponsor participate in a new world order.
00:16:56.000 I will not do a social credit score.
00:16:57.000 I will not bring in a central bank digital currency.
00:17:01.000 From a liberty standpoint, this is a major victory.
00:17:05.000 So Donald Trump gives this excellent speech, and I want to play one more piece of tape here.
00:17:09.000 And I'm going to tell you kind of how then the delegates at the convention reacted from who they nominated.
00:17:14.000 Very noteworthy.
00:17:16.000 But again, let's play cut 34.
00:17:18.000 Love this messaging.
00:17:19.000 Play cut 34.
00:17:21.000 We believe that the job of the United States military is not to wage endless regime change wars around the globe, senseless war.
00:17:31.000 The job of the United States military is to defend America from attack and invasion here at home.
00:17:38.000 We believe that property rights are fundamental to a free society and that Joe Biden's rampant inflation is a monstrous theft from the American people.
00:17:51.000 Said theft.
00:17:53.000 We believe that the greatest threat to our country is not from enemies abroad.
00:17:58.000 It's the tyrants, communists, fascists, and thugs attacking our rights and liberties from within.
00:18:05.000 It's excellent messaging.
00:18:06.000 Ignore all the noise.
00:18:07.000 That's what it is.
00:18:07.000 Literally and metaphorically, it's noise.
00:18:09.000 He's getting right down to the issue.
00:18:11.000 Donald Trump is building a coalition that can win.
00:18:14.000 The libertarians had a choice.
00:18:16.000 They could nominate someone in the form and the tradition of Ron Paul, or they could go towards left Antifa libertarian.
00:18:26.000 I'm going to tell you what they decided, and it helps Donald Trump a lot.
00:18:32.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
00:18:34.000 What an unbelievable start to 2024.
00:18:36.000 We had last month saving babies with pre-born by providing ultrasounds.
00:18:40.000 And we're doing again this year what we did last year.
00:18:42.000 We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.
00:18:47.000 As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, and we're not going to do nothing.
00:18:53.000 Your gift to pre-born will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.
00:18:59.000 $280 can save 10 babies.
00:19:01.000 $28 a month can save a baby a month all year long.
00:19:04.000 And a $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.
00:19:11.000 And will also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.
00:19:14.000 Call 833-850-2229.
00:19:17.000 That's 833-850-2229.
00:19:20.000 Or click on the pre-born banner at charliekirk.com.
00:19:22.000 That is charliekirk.com and click on the pre-born banner.
00:19:25.000 Also, save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.
00:19:28.000 I'm a donor of this organization.
00:19:29.000 They're terrific.
00:19:30.000 Go to charliekirk.com, click on the pre-born banner.
00:19:34.000 So the libertarians had a choice.
00:19:37.000 They could nominate somebody that is in the tradition of Ron Paul Rand Paul, which is closer to actually what libertarianism is.
00:19:45.000 Reverence for the Constitution, not being totally insane, saying that we have to end the U.S. military.
00:19:51.000 Instead, after booing Donald Trump and listening to RFK, libertarians decided to go left.
00:20:01.000 The Libertarian Party of America has officially nominated Chase Oliver, a name that many of you do not know, to be their nominee.
00:20:10.000 He is a gay race Marxist who believes in open borders, the ending of all drug laws.
00:20:18.000 And also, he is calling what is happening in Gaza as the genocide happening in Gaza.
00:20:25.000 So now, if you look, that's a picture of Chase Oliver, an openly gay, woke candidate.
00:20:32.000 Anybody who has libertarian leanings, by the way, that is seeing the increase in crime, that is seeing the grooming of our children, they don't want more of this kind of nonsensical libertarian tilt to policy when it comes to our kids.
00:20:50.000 Now, if you look at the menu of options in front of people who say, oh, I'm not sure about Trump, let's look at who is now running on the ticket.
00:21:00.000 Let's get that graphic up.
00:21:01.000 The graphic up, as you can see, has RFK, Joe Biden, Jill Stein, Cornell West, and Chase Oliver.
00:21:12.000 You have five left-wing candidates, and you have one that represents the everyday American.
00:21:20.000 It's five images of the five candidates that will be running.
00:21:24.000 This is an old country buffet of people who would destroy the country.
00:21:28.000 And I hope you understand RFK is a bitter left-wing environmentalist who's good on one issue, but he should be nowhere near political power.
00:21:38.000 It doesn't matter what song and dance that he's giving you.
00:21:41.000 It doesn't matter what kind of anthem that he is singing.
00:21:44.000 He is a left-winger.
00:21:46.000 So let's start there.
00:21:46.000 Chase Oliver on the right of your screen.
00:21:49.000 Open borders.
00:21:50.000 He literally has a tweet recently where he has said that one of the best ways to advance American prosperity is by open borders.
00:21:58.000 He believes in no borders.
00:21:59.000 Okay, next, Cornell West, who his entire mantra and his campaign is all about ending the war in Gaza, restricting funding to Israel.
00:22:09.000 He's about reparations.
00:22:11.000 He is a race Marxist.
00:22:13.000 Next, you have the earth worshiper, Jill Stein.
00:22:16.000 Jill Stein is a radical environmentalist, wants to get rid of all fossil fuels.
00:22:22.000 She is running under the Green Party ticket.
00:22:25.000 Next, of course, is Joe Biden, who is destroying and ruining the country on a daily basis.
00:22:31.000 Just in the last couple of weeks, Joe Biden has given you enough reason not to vote for him from his taxpayer-funded student loan bailout package, from his inability and his unwillingness to secure the southern border, from reinstituting the trans nonsense when it comes to Title IX.
00:22:47.000 Joe Biden is far from a candidate who loves the country.
00:22:51.000 Joe Biden is a traitor to America.
00:22:52.000 And then RFK.
00:22:54.000 So if you are an anti-Trump vote, it's important to remember that in 2020, it was only Biden v. Trump.
00:23:04.000 It was Biden v. Trump.
00:23:07.000 There was no Chase Oliver.
00:23:09.000 There was no Cornell West.
00:23:10.000 There was no Jill Stein.
00:23:12.000 There was no RFK.
00:23:14.000 So Donald Trump in this current landscape needs to get anywhere between 38 to 44% where a plurality, not even a majority, very well might determine the winner.
00:23:28.000 More about Chase Oliver.
00:23:30.000 Let's show 27 up on screen.
00:23:32.000 The candidate for the Libertarian Party is a drag queen sympathizer.
00:23:38.000 Here he is with a drag queen during Pride Month, which is goodness gracious coming up.
00:23:43.000 Get ready, everybody.
00:23:44.000 It's starting for Saturday, all Saturday, all June.
00:23:44.000 Hope you're ready.
00:23:48.000 I actually think Pride Month this year might really, really hurt the Democrat Party.
00:23:54.000 I think people are so exhausted with the whole over-the-top grooming of kids, kids twerking at these parades.
00:24:02.000 Here is Chase Oliver insisting why he thinks drag queens want to read to children.
00:24:09.000 This is the nominee that the Libertarian Party put forward, play cut 30.
00:24:13.000 Why do you think that the drag queens want to read to children?
00:24:17.000 Because I think that they are performance artists and they want to be able to have different levels of performance art.
00:24:23.000 It's the same reason as why do the wiggles sing to children?
00:24:26.000 Because they want to have a marketplace to kids.
00:24:29.000 That is not inherently sexual.
00:24:31.000 There is inherently sexual drag.
00:24:32.000 And you're not going to convince me.
00:24:34.000 I mean, I'm not going to defend otherwise.
00:24:36.000 There absolutely is.
00:24:37.000 But there's also the ability to perform as a man in a wig without being sexual.
00:24:44.000 And that is what this is.
00:24:46.000 I guarantee you.
00:24:48.000 Yeah.
00:24:49.000 Keep doing that.
00:24:50.000 Keep doing the pro-drag thing as the Libertarian Party.
00:24:54.000 Dave Smith, who is a very smart man.
00:24:57.000 I want to have him on the program at some point.
00:24:59.000 He did a wonderful episode with Tucker.
00:25:02.000 I found him to be very bright, very fun.
00:25:04.000 He's a comedian.
00:25:06.000 I obviously don't agree with him on everything.
00:25:08.000 He is a libertarian.
00:25:09.000 I am not.
00:25:10.000 But he's very honest.
00:25:12.000 Dave Smith is an honest man.
00:25:15.000 Milton Friedman, I'm sorry, Dave Smith came out and he's more of a Milton Friedman type is what I was going to say.
00:25:22.000 Dave Smith is much more in the tradition of a Milton Friedman libertarian.
00:25:25.000 And he said this.
00:25:26.000 He said, ironically, Chase winning Chase Oliver is the best outcome for Trump this weekend, much better than a standing ovation at his speech.
00:25:36.000 That Donald Trump is the greatest beneficiary out of what happened this last weekend, not because of what happened or didn't happen with his speech, but instead how they decided to nominate a pro-drag, anti-Israel, not just anti-Israel, but saying that we need to end the genocide, parroting the most fringe talking points.
00:26:03.000 Play cut 41.
00:26:04.000 The only national candidate RFK won't, Joe Biden won't, Donald Trump won't, but I'm saying right now, in genocide, ceasefire now, and support peace around the world.
00:26:16.000 No more proxy wars.
00:26:25.000 Absolutely free to hostages too.
00:26:29.000 I agree with the no proxy wars, obviously, but calling it a genocide that cheapens genocide.
00:26:36.000 And now let's get back to that five-person picture because I want to make sure we under, I hope that we emphasize one piece.
00:26:42.000 The anti-Trump vote now has to land in one of five places.
00:26:47.000 And the libertarians are good at one thing.
00:26:49.000 They're good at ballot access.
00:26:52.000 They're going to get Chase Oliver on the ballot likely in almost every major state.
00:26:56.000 And now that they essentially have nominated a race Marxist who is openly gay, sympathetic to drag, does not want drug laws, and parrots the talking point of the genocide in Gaza, it is all anti-Trump votes.
00:27:11.000 But I think it's important that we remind you to remind your friends about RFK.
00:27:17.000 Here is RFK on camera calling for a law to punish speech.
00:27:22.000 RFK on camera calling for a law to punish those of you that might have skepticism when it comes to the climate.
00:27:31.000 Play cut 42.
00:27:34.000 I guess all the evidence of the rational mind are saying that global warming doesn't exist, that they are contemptible human beings, and that, you know, I wish that there were a law you could punish them under.
00:27:46.000 I wish that there was a law you could punish them under.
00:27:50.000 That if you have an opinion that you don't share, that you as president would put a law.
00:27:58.000 So, anybody in this audience, if you have skepticism about man-made climate change, or as they call it, anthropogenic climate change, which means done by human beings, he might do a law to put you in jail.
00:28:14.000 He famously said, We want to go after ExxonMobil and take their assets away.
00:28:18.000 Remember, he came on this show and said that his ideal Supreme Court nominee would be one in the tradition of the Warren Court who got rid of prayer in schools.
00:28:32.000 And hilariously, what I should have said, and I wanted to come back on the show, was wait a second, you trust the Warren Commission now?
00:28:40.000 If anyone understands it, if you get it, you get it.
00:28:44.000 If you don't, that's okay.
00:28:47.000 This is excellent news for Donald Trump, and the betting odds of Trump's probability of becoming president are going up, but none of that matters.
00:28:57.000 It matters now.
00:28:58.000 Are we going to do the work?
00:28:59.000 And we're doing that at Turning Point Action.
00:29:01.000 We're hiring the ballot chasers.
00:29:02.000 We're registering voters every single day.
00:29:05.000 We are going out into the streets to build a consensus.
00:29:08.000 But if you go back to that graphic, now there is one populist nationalist running who believes in conservative values and five left-wingers, five left-wingers, five-on-one, five left-wingers, and one conservative, one America first candidate, and five ideologically driven zealots.
00:29:31.000 And it's going to split the vote if they're able to get on the ballot, if they're able to get ballot access, which looks more and more like they will.
00:29:40.000 You might have heard Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.

00:31:15.000 The lead at politico.com.
00:31:17.000 This only reinforces my point that something is coming.
00:31:21.000 It could be bird flu, lobster flu, cyber attack, drone wars.
00:31:26.000 It could be rolling blackouts.
00:31:28.000 Something is coming.
00:31:31.000 It could be an electromagnetic pulse.
00:31:33.000 It could be an attempted assassination.
00:31:35.000 It could be an actual assassination.
00:31:37.000 These people are about to get very desperate.
00:31:39.000 The trend is not their friend.
00:31:41.000 Now, I still give us a 50-50 shot to win.
00:31:45.000 Still, after all of this, I think our odds are 50-50.
00:31:49.000 They could orchestrate a false flag.
00:31:50.000 These are desperate people.
00:31:52.000 They cheated in 2020.
00:31:54.000 They cheated with mass mail and ballots.
00:31:56.000 They cheated with social media suppression.
00:31:57.000 They cheated in so many ways.
00:32:00.000 And it's as if we're waiting.
00:32:02.000 We're waiting.
00:32:03.000 This last weekend was the four-year anniversary of the beginning of Floyd Apalooza.
00:32:08.000 Race riots in the streets.
00:32:10.000 Chaos.
00:32:11.000 It feels very not normal, but it's not chaotic in the sense where we're waiting for them to deploy something.
00:32:19.000 And Democrats are now looking around and they're in a freakout.
00:32:23.000 That's not my term.
00:32:24.000 That is politico.com.
00:32:26.000 This is by several authors.
00:32:29.000 It is one, two, three, four, five, six.
00:32:35.000 Six people wrote this.
00:32:37.000 So you better believe that this is well sourced.
00:32:41.000 Biden's stubbornly poor polling and stakes in the election are creating the freak out, Democrat operatives said.
00:32:47.000 This isn't, oh my goodness, Mitt Romney will become president.
00:32:49.000 It's, oh, my goodness, the democracy might end.
00:32:52.000 I think people are, it is, it really, I don't like overusing this because I feel it's, it's, it's the boy who cried wolf.
00:32:58.000 It is the best example of the boy who cried wolf is right here.
00:33:02.000 This, this is it.
00:33:04.000 No one believes.
00:33:04.000 Yeah, okay, great.
00:33:05.000 Democracy is going to end, just like how climate change is going to engulf us and systemic racism is a public health threat.
00:33:10.000 And got it.
00:33:11.000 Thanks.
00:33:12.000 It says Donald Trump has raised far more money in April and the landscape may only become worse for Democrats.
00:33:17.000 With Trump's hush money trial concluding, another, this is involving the president's son set to begin in Delaware.
00:33:23.000 But the most telling part of this entire article is this.
00:33:29.000 Whatever the Biden campaign has been doing over the last two months, and it's a lot of activity, including $25 million in swing state ad spending, according to Ad Impact, it's had only a limited effect.
00:33:44.000 According to 538, Biden's average job approval rating on March 7th was 38.1%.
00:33:50.000 On Friday, it's 38.4%.
00:33:54.000 And his standing against Trump has only changed a little.
00:33:57.000 On April 22nd, Trump's criminal trial began.
00:34:02.000 Trump had a 0.3 lead in national polls.
00:34:05.000 Now he has a 1.4 lead in national polls.
00:34:08.000 This is the kicker.
00:34:10.000 The reason why the Democrats are freaking out and they're getting ready for their next thing.
00:34:14.000 By the way, I want you to email me, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:34:17.000 What do you think they have planned for us?
00:34:19.000 Because we know they will cheat worse than ever, but now we've seen the playbook.
00:34:23.000 What do you think they're going to do?
00:34:24.000 Is it a virus?
00:34:25.000 Is it an EMP?
00:34:26.000 Is it a war?
00:34:28.000 Is it more student loan debt relief?
00:34:31.000 Biden's approval is at 38% right now.
00:34:33.000 What could even improve that?
00:34:35.000 A suspension of the election?
00:34:36.000 Are they just going to say no election like Zelensky?
00:34:39.000 I wish I didn't have to live in this paranoid state of mind, but only the paranoids survive.
00:34:45.000 I want to hear from you, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:34:47.000 What do you think it is?
00:34:48.000 Because Joe Biden just spent $25 million.
00:34:51.000 And typically, when you spend $25 million and your opponent spends no money, usually your numbers go up.
00:34:57.000 Joe Biden spent $25 million and he's less popular than before the Ad Blitz.
00:35:02.000 Is this going to be a false flag attack on Donald Trump's life or feds dressing up like Trump supporters and attacking Biden or his aides?
00:35:11.000 Is it going to be another Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot?
00:35:15.000 You are about to see the most desperate level of activity from these people.
00:35:20.000 And I want to hear from you.
00:35:20.000 We have to say it out loud because if we say it out loud, it becomes a little less likely that they do it.
00:35:26.000 Not impossibly unlikely, but a little less likely.
00:35:28.000 They war game this stuff out.
00:35:30.000 What are they going to do?
00:35:31.000 Because this is a fire alarm for them.
00:35:34.000 Our movement is growing.
00:35:36.000 It's ascendant.
00:35:37.000 It's popular.
00:35:39.000 They are throwing ideas at the wall.
00:35:41.000 What do you think they have planned?
00:35:43.000 I'm genuinely curious.
00:35:44.000 I want to hear from you.
