00:01:36.000 We have Brandon right now.
00:01:37.000 Brandon is a member.
00:01:39.000 Brandon, let's go, Brandon.
00:01:41.000 So, from what I understand, your question was advice on how to talk to liberals about issues they care most about.
00:01:47.000 So, the non-political women.
00:01:49.000 I would just ask questions.
00:01:51.000 So, for example, when it comes to the abortion issue, just ask a very simple question.
00:01:55.000 Is murder wrong?
00:01:57.000 So yes, of course, they'll be like, oh yeah, I mean, murder's wrong, okay.
00:02:00.000 When does life begin?
00:02:02.000 It's a very important question, and they can't answer it.
00:02:06.000 What is the being that is being aborted?
00:02:09.000 Is it a giraffe?
00:02:10.000 Is it a horse?
00:02:11.000 Is it a zebra?
00:02:12.000 They have not thought through any of these issues, just so we're clear, if they're non-political especially.
00:02:18.000 And the abortion topic is the most morally clear topic there is, because it is easy to evade the topic if you want to basically convince yourself that it's okay to terminate a life that is smaller, less developed, in a different environment, and has some form of a degree of dependency.
00:02:38.000 Let's go to Amanda.
00:02:40.000 Amanda, thank you for being a member.
00:02:41.000 What's on your mind?
00:02:43.000 Hi, so my husband and I, we're new parents and you know, we're trying to navigate the world with an infant.
00:02:50.000 So we're doing delayed vaccinations with the Dr. Sears method and are unsure if we want to continue because of growing concerns that vaccines cause more harm than good.
00:03:00.000 So just curious on how you're handling vaccines with your family as we are seeing mixed messages on whether or not to fully vaccinate.
00:03:08.000 Yeah, I'm not going to give you any medical advice.
00:03:10.000 I will say, though, that our kids are not getting all of them.
00:03:13.000 And beyond that, I'm not going to tell you anything with that.
00:03:17.000 But yeah, look, we are very hesitant.
00:03:19.000 For example, from COVID to some of this other stuff is completely unnecessary for kids to get.
00:03:24.000 Every parent has to make their own decision.
00:03:26.000 We are big medical freedom advocates.
00:03:28.000 We have an amazing pediatrician, Dr. Tiffany, that supports us and assists us when we make these decisions.
00:03:35.000 There is no shaming.
00:03:36.000 There's no intimidation.
00:03:38.000 There is no pressure in any way, shape, or form.
00:03:41.000 And I want to empower parents to say that it's okay to tell the pediatrician, no, I don't think this vaccine is the right decision for my kid.
00:03:48.000 No, I'm not going to be bullied into giving six shots in one visit.
00:03:53.000 And so I encourage you to pray about it.
00:03:56.000 And here's my other piece of advice, Amanda, which is find other parents who do not vaccinate their kids or at least do delayed vaccination and talk about it.
00:04:07.000 Because the calculus that you should make when it comes to vaccination is number one, what am I vaccinating against?
00:04:15.000 So is it something that I'm super afraid of my kid getting?
00:04:18.000 So I'll give you one example, which is I grew up and I got chicken pox when I grew up.
00:04:23.000 I don't think it's the end of the world.
00:04:25.000 I don't think it's a deal-breaker.
00:04:26.000 They now vaccinate against chickenpox.
00:04:29.000 I don't think that it is worth the potential risk of an adverse event with a chickenpox vaccine.
00:04:34.000 Now, you might, you know, have the risk of shingles later in life, but that's a risk that I was willing to take growing up, and the chickenpox vaccine is not even totally effective.
00:04:44.000 So you have to first ask the question, what if my kid gets this particular disease or virus or bacterial infection, and work your way backward from there.
00:04:53.000 And also the COVID shot is another example.
00:04:55.000 If you take the COVID shot, why are we giving 18-month-olds the COVID shot?
00:05:00.000 So if you go through the entire vaccination schedule, at the very least we can agree, too many shots given too quickly and with way too many potential adverse events.
00:05:11.000 But So, I want to just empower you.
00:05:14.000 If you think you are making the right move, then trust your gut, trust your instinct.
00:05:19.000 Never make decisions based out of fear, and find other parents that might share your views.
00:05:25.000 And where do you live, Amanda, by the way?
00:05:28.000 I live in Phoenix, actually.
00:05:29.000 Well, I can introduce you to our pediatrician if you want.
00:05:29.000 Oh, great.
00:05:32.000 I'm going to actually research her.
00:05:36.000 It's Dr. Tiffany Zook, actually.
00:05:39.000 I think it's called Holistic something.
00:05:42.000 Daisy, can you email Amanda after this, and I'll send her the info?
00:05:45.000 She's amazing, and she actually comes to your home, believe it or not.
00:05:49.000 Which is great, so you don't have to go to a pediatrician's office.
00:05:52.000 And if you want to do all the vaccines, she'll support you.
00:05:54.000 If you want to do none of the vaccines, she'll support you.
00:05:56.000 It's all very transparent, very fact-based, and very empowering of parents' rights and decisions.
00:06:02.000 So, unlike these other pediatrician offices where literally they will say, your kid is going to die if you do not take this shot, as I'm sure you've dealt with, Amanda.
00:06:10.000 I got lucky with the pediatrician we're with now.
00:06:13.000 She doesn't really pressure us at all, so that is one good thing.
00:06:17.000 But, you know, I just wanted to hear it from your perspective.
00:06:20.000 Thank you, Amanda.
00:06:21.000 Thanks for being a member.
00:06:21.000 Okay, let's see.
00:06:22.000 We have Justin next.
00:06:24.000 Justin, thank you for being a member.
00:06:25.000 What's on your mind?
00:06:26.000 My name is Justin, you know, I'm just from the good old Constitution State and, you know, I was just curious, you know, how you felt about Chris Murphy becoming the Secretary of State now, you know, after I've been seeing some posts, you know, about him wanting to do that and I was just curious how you felt.
00:06:41.000 Yeah, well, I don't think that's confirmed yet.
00:06:43.000 I'm not a Chris Murphy fan.
00:06:46.000 Connecticut politics are not my favorite.
00:06:48.000 And so, I'll say, as far as Chris Murphy becoming Secretary of State, I certainly hope that doesn't happen.
00:06:56.000 But in some ways, it'd actually be an upgrade from Tony Blinken right now.
00:07:00.000 But thank you for being a member, man.
00:07:01.000 And I haven't seen that report, but I have to look into it.
00:07:03.000 Really appreciate it.
00:07:04.000 Yes, please look into it.
00:07:06.000 If you look under Matt Corey, who's running against him in the Senate, you can find the article about that.
00:07:11.000 In some ways, it's really hard to imagine an administration worse than Joe Biden.
00:07:19.000 But Kamala is very aspirational.
00:07:21.000 I think she's going to try to do worse.
00:07:22.000 I really do.
00:07:23.000 Laurie, this will be our last question of this segment.
00:07:26.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:07:27.000 Laurie, what's on your mind?
00:07:29.000 Thanks for having me on.
00:07:29.000 Hi, Charlie.
00:07:31.000 I just wanted to get your take on the judge that's going to be sentencing President Trump next month.
00:07:38.000 I kind of thought that had been pushed past the election, but do you think he's going to go to jail?
00:07:46.000 I don't think if you talked about it, I must have missed it, so I'm getting your thoughts.
00:07:49.000 We haven't talked about it.
00:07:50.000 Thank you for being a member, and you are a super fan if you know that we haven't talked about it, because that is impressive.
00:07:56.000 You are spot on, Lori.
00:07:57.000 In fact, I'm making a note right now that we need to do that.
00:08:00.000 This is the quiet issue that no one's talking about.
00:08:04.000 Is it September 11th?
00:08:05.000 Is that right, Lori?
00:08:06.000 I think it's September 11th, they have it scheduled.
00:08:08.000 September 13th, it's right around there.
00:08:10.000 Yeah, mid-September for sure.
00:08:12.000 Trump is going to have to be sentenced for this ridiculous fraud trial.
00:08:16.000 Now mind you, there is a looming appeal that might throw out the entire conviction because
00:08:23.000 the prosecution used some official acts that Donald Trump did as president and now the
00:08:29.000 Supreme Court, based on the June ruling, says that those acts should be granted with presidential
00:08:34.000 immunity.
00:08:36.000 So not really clear of what that is going, how that's going to materialize or what that
00:08:40.000 means.
00:08:42.000 But we'll see what happens there.
00:08:44.000 As far as the sentencing, I'm very worried about this.
00:08:47.000 I'm worried that if the polls show Donald Trump with an advantage and Donald Trump doing well, it very well might be or might result in them sending Donald Trump to prison.
00:08:57.000 I'm very concerned about it, Laurie.
00:08:58.000 You're astute to observe that and to mention that.
00:09:01.000 And we need to do a show on that as we grow closer to it.
00:09:03.000 Laurie, thank you so much for being a member.
00:09:05.000 God bless you.
00:09:05.000 Thank you.
00:09:06.000 Thanks, Charlie.

00:10:18.000 Okay, continuing with us is two of my favorite people who I think are going to the Oregon-Michigan game based on an email I got this morning.
00:10:25.000 Go Ducks!
00:10:26.000 I will be there.
00:10:26.000 Caleb and Michelle.
00:10:27.000 Caleb and Michelle, thanks for being a member as always.
00:10:29.000 What's on your mind?
00:10:30.000 Hi, Charlie.
00:10:31.000 Yeah, we are.
00:10:31.000 We're definitely planning on making that trip.
00:10:33.000 I hope it works out.
00:10:35.000 So here's the question.
00:10:37.000 It seems that the deep state, you know, worked together to remove Biden because, you know, obviously they're worried about losing power.
00:10:42.000 And that the senators running for re-election were worried about him being at the top of the ticket and they're going to lose that.
00:10:51.000 Do you think that they put up Kamala as a sacrificial lamb and they're willing to lose the presidential as long as they hold power in the Senate?
00:11:00.000 It's hard to say.
00:11:00.000 I don't think so.
00:11:03.000 I think that maybe, at the very least, they were throwing Kamala out there to limit the loss on the Senate side, which she appears to at least to have done.
00:11:12.000 I don't think it's a sacrificial lamb.
00:11:15.000 They never want to punt on an election, but I think that they know that it's a difficult election.
00:11:21.000 For them, given the terrain, and that because of that terrain, because of the terrain of the economy and inflation and immigration, that Kamala Harris, at the very least, will help down-ticket candidates by consolidating the Democrat base far more than what they did under Joe Biden.
00:11:43.000 So, I don't think it's a throwaway, however, I think they know that it's going to be a tough lift for them.
00:11:48.000 It's a tough campaign for both sides, but I don't think by any means they're going to have a cakewalk.
00:11:55.000 Okay, yeah, thank you.
00:11:56.000 Thanks, guys.
00:11:56.000 All right, I hope to see you soon.
00:11:58.000 By the way, President Trump has announced that potentially there will be a debate on September 4th with Fox News, ABC with September 10th, and NBC September 25th.
00:12:08.000 We have to see if Kamala agrees, and I hope, fingers crossed, that we get a town hall debate.
00:12:16.000 I hope we get... I hope all of them are town hall debates, for whatever it's worth.
00:12:21.000 With audiences.
00:12:22.000 The two camps are debating over the debates.
00:12:25.000 Dylan, thanks for being a member.
00:12:27.000 Dylan, what's on your mind?
00:12:28.000 Hey Charlie, can you hear me?
00:12:29.000 Yes, and I just want to compliment all of you.
00:12:31.000 You guys are unmuting yourselves beautifully.
00:12:33.000 So keep doing it.
00:12:34.000 Go ahead, Dylan.
00:12:34.000 Alright, perfect.
00:12:35.000 Charlie, I'm wondering if you, based on either your private connections with the Trump campaign or otherwise, get the sense that Trump appreciates how vulnerable he is in light of the Secret Service shortcomings that have been well-publicized.
00:12:52.000 That's a good question.
00:12:53.000 I'm not sure.
00:12:54.000 I think that there's a fair amount of skepticism in his campaign, and I think there's been chatter about hiring and augmenting his current secret service with private security.
00:13:05.000 So, we will see.
00:13:10.000 And we'll see if he ends up adding and layering that security on top of it.
00:13:15.000 I think that anybody near Trump right now knows that he's not completely safe with the U.S.
00:13:21.000 I certainly feel that way.
00:13:21.000 Secret Service.
00:13:23.000 I certainly feel that way.
00:13:25.000 And I do as well.
00:13:26.000 Thank you.
00:13:27.000 Yeah, the more we learn about what happened at a Butler, Pennsylvania, boy, the harder and harder it is to believe that this was just, I hope it was just negligence.
00:13:37.000 Let's just put it that way.
00:13:38.000 All right, Dennis, your final question of this segment was on yourmindmembers.charliekirk.com.
00:13:42.000 Okay, he wants to know about Mayorkas and Garland impeachments, both of which are show votes and will not result in the removal.
00:13:48.000 Alejandro Mayorkas, who is the head of the Department of Homeland Security, and Garland, who is in charge of DOJ.
00:13:55.000 The question is, why aren't we revisiting it?
00:13:58.000 Even revisiting it, the Senate will just acquit and the Senate will just throw it out, so it's largely a waste of time.
00:14:05.000 The most important thing we could do to fire Mayorkas and Garland is to win in November.
00:14:11.000 That is the most important thing that we can do to get rid of those terrible people that are currently running our country right now, and running the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security.
00:14:20.000 President Trump announces that he's spoken to the head of the networks regarding details and there's some things that need to be agreed upon, such as audience and which city they'll be in.
00:14:29.000 And he says he believes that those are all things that will be settled easily, just waiting on the other side to agree.
00:14:33.000 Potentially a Fox News debate on September 4th, ABC News debate on September 10th, NBC News debate on September 25th.
00:14:41.000 I certainly hope that we get some form of a town hall debate.
00:14:44.000 I hope so.
00:14:45.000 And Kamala Harris has yet to respond to those three debate offers, those three dates.
00:14:50.000 September 4th, September 10th, and September 25th.
00:14:53.000 Cole, who is a member, make sure you unmute.
00:14:56.000 Cole, what is on your mind?
00:14:57.000 Thanks for being a member.
00:14:59.000 Hi, so I'm a 24 year old male, and I've noticed that a lot of the women that I know my age, maybe just in my area but aren't interested in serious relationships.
00:15:11.000 I think they've been pushed actively by culture away from it through education and the news.
00:15:17.000 In the push for women to be in positions of power, largely, and explore in their 20s, and that men my age, because of this, are often feeling tired of attempting these serious relationships with the majority of women who are uninterested.
00:15:32.000 Considering that I believe marriage and children is called for by God and makes you a better person, how as a country can we push for societal change regarding the age of marriage and family building when it's been consistently pushed older over time?
00:15:46.000 What a beautiful question.
00:15:48.000 So first, where do you live, Cole?
00:15:50.000 I'm in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
00:15:51.000 Yeah, I think this is a nationwide problem.
00:15:53.000 You said it really beautifully.
00:15:55.000 Can you say that again that young women pursue power in their 20s?
00:15:59.000 Is that right?
00:16:00.000 You said something of that?
00:16:01.000 Yeah, just about is that I think through education in the media, they have been told, especially in their 20s, that this is your time to explore.
00:16:11.000 This is your time to advance your career.
00:16:15.000 Go to school.
00:16:17.000 Become great, powerful women in positions of power, which is fine for some women.
00:16:23.000 But I found that most of my peers are unhappy being, you know, middle 20s now and having followed what they've been told has been the path towards success.
00:16:35.000 And in the past and throughout history, instead, the by a majority basis has been pushed towards building relationship in a family.
00:16:44.000 Yes, so you're exactly right.
00:16:45.000 So, women are more social, they worry more about what other people think of them, and not breaking norms.
00:16:50.000 And this is good when the norms are good, but when the norms are corrupted, watch out.
00:16:54.000 And that is part of what we're living through.
00:16:56.000 And so, just so we're clear, Cole, move to Arizona, and just hang around Turning Point USA.
00:17:03.000 There are a lot of single Christian women in their 20s.
00:17:06.000 And they say, I can't find good men, I can't find good men.
00:17:09.000 And I think it's a little bit of both.
00:17:10.000 I blame the men and the women.
00:17:12.000 For men, maybe you're not, let's put this nicely, maybe you're not impressive enough so women just kind of shrug their shoulders.
00:17:18.000 Maybe you don't work hard enough, you drink too much alcohol.
00:17:21.000 I'm not you Cole, but I'm just saying in generally, generally, that women will all of a sudden kind of put their career aside if they find a man impressive enough.
00:17:30.000 Secondly, women, if young ladies, are willing to say, you know what?
00:17:36.000 Maybe career is not the most important thing.
00:17:38.000 And every young woman needs to answer the question.
00:17:41.000 If I could only have one, great career or great family, which one would it be?
00:17:47.000 And young ladies will say, great career, a lot.
00:17:51.000 And now you can have both, obviously.
00:17:53.000 They both can simultaneously exist.
00:17:56.000 However, sometimes you forsake one for the other and you end up in your early 30s and you say, where have all the men gone?
00:18:04.000 And that plays into what JD Vance was saying correctly, which is that creates a massive civilizational problem.
00:18:12.000 So Cole, I just want to ask a question.
00:18:13.000 Would you say that most young ladies They just are not interested in men at all?
00:18:19.000 Or that they just want to have a good time and that's why they're so into kind of abortion and that kind of... I'm just... What are you seeing?
00:18:28.000 If a young woman is found a serious partner, is she just not interested until she hits 30?
00:18:33.000 Is that what you're saying?
00:18:35.000 Well, first off, thank you.
00:18:36.000 I'd love to move to Arizona.
00:18:38.000 I am recently married, so not speaking about me personally.
00:18:41.000 But yeah, I think it's twofold.
00:18:45.000 I think women will if they meet the right guy.
00:18:48.000 I just think that the opinions that they hold starting these relationships is that they're serious and through peers or society or whatever else are abandoning them.
00:19:02.000 And that largely men are realizing around my age that You know, they don't have a biological clock, one, and two, that their ability to attract women is somewhat based in modern society around their income, and that will increase over time.
00:19:20.000 So I know that men my age are thinking, why am I going to sift through and put so much effort into finding a good woman now when I could find a better one later?
00:19:33.000 And women are thinking the exact same thing, but most of them I talk to my age are wanting, you know, two to four kids and want to be dating for about four years and engaged for one or two and are running out of time on that clock for what they really think is important.
00:19:53.000 Well, first, you've really thought this through, and I think you're exactly right.
00:19:56.000 And the honest truth is that it should be the opposite, which is that young women should get married earlier, and then they could pursue the career once their kids are raised.
00:20:06.000 And that's just not an opinion, it's just the way that God designed biology, that would make more sense.
00:20:11.000 Instead of what we do the opposite, you put the career on the front end and the family on the back end.
00:20:15.000 It should be family on the front end, career on the back end.
00:20:18.000 Thank you, Cole, very much.
00:20:21.000 Did you know that roughly half of the global population has access to reliable electricity?
00:20:26.000 Rockefeller Foundation labels them energy poor.
00:20:29.000 But just because they have unreliable access to electricity doesn't mean that they wish to stay energy poor.
00:20:34.000 And that's because of fossil fuels.
00:20:35.000 Those populations are lifting themselves out of poverty.
00:20:38.000 That's right.
00:20:39.000 From irrigation to cultivation and transportation, food production is at an all-time high.

00:20:47.000 So much so that 3.6 billion people considered energy poor are beginning to flourish, even
00:20:52.000 as Kamala Harris and AOC wish to drive them back to the Stone Ages and miserable poverty
00:20:56.000 with the Green New Deal.
00:20:57.000 I'm Charlie Kirk, and I just want you to know the facts.

00:21:21.000 Let's take the next question here.
00:21:22.000 What do we have?
00:21:23.000 Teresa.
00:21:24.000 Teresa, thank you for being a member.
00:21:26.000 What's on your mind?
00:21:27.000 Oh, yeah.
00:21:29.000 I was just asking about President Trump, listening to his bit of his press conference here.
00:21:35.000 A lot of us are really concerned about the negative comments and negative campaigning.
00:21:41.000 If he just hosted or stayed on policy and just focused on that, we really feel like he'd have a better chance of getting the independent voter, so he could be too big to rig.
00:21:54.000 I'm just wondering if you guys have any influence on the Trump campaign to help with this.
00:21:59.000 Not too much.
00:22:00.000 And so I agree with you generally, Theresa.
00:22:02.000 Now, I'm curious, do you think it's OK if he criticizes Kamala's ideas, if he were to say that her ideas are wrong?
00:22:09.000 Because everyone has different opinions on this.
00:22:12.000 And I'm curious.
00:22:13.000 I don't know where I fall on it.
00:22:14.000 Some people say that Trump is being too negative.
00:22:16.000 Some people say that Trump needs to attack her more.
00:22:18.000 Where would you fall on that?
00:22:19.000 What would the perfect balance be?
00:22:21.000 I think just staying on policy or even if he's criticizing her opinions, but not her as a human being.
00:22:29.000 OK, so you think so you think it's not helpful to say that she's a liar or a fake?
00:22:34.000 I'm not saying this.
00:22:35.000 It turns a lot of I think it personally turns a lot of people off, Charlie, and that's concerning to me.
00:22:40.000 And I don't think it's necessary.
00:22:42.000 I think there's enough differences in in the policies that he could get independent on the fence type voters by being the softer, gentler Trump that we saw at the Believers Summit and at the RNC.
00:22:56.000 Very smart.
00:22:57.000 Teresa, thank you.
00:22:58.000 I don't know how much influence I'll have pushing that, but your wisdom is appreciated.
00:23:02.000 Thank you.
00:23:03.000 Let's go to Nate.
00:23:05.000 Hey there.
00:23:05.000 Hey, Nate.
00:23:06.000 Doing well, yourself?
00:23:06.000 How you doing?
00:23:07.000 Good.
00:23:08.000 Hey, so first of all, Charlie, thank you very much for everything you do, your message and everything.
00:23:13.000 Listening to you and Candice is just getting so much guidance and everything in this very powerful movement that we need to have.
00:23:19.000 Thank you guys for all that.
00:23:22.000 Just questions I have is regarding, you know, day-to-day taxes, increased inflation and everything.
00:23:27.000 You know, at what point do we tell the government, hey, we're no longer being, you know, represented with the taxes in which we're paying?
00:23:34.000 And going back to my comment about the whole Boston Tea Party, like, isn't that what we did to Great Britain?
00:23:40.000 Telling them like, hey, we're being taxed for absolutely no reason.
00:23:43.000 You're not, you're no longer representing who we are.
00:23:46.000 and what we're trying to stand for here.
00:23:48.000 And then additionally, I just have questions about homeschooling and just finding ways
00:23:54.000 to make that cheaper, more incentivized instead of the government telling us like,
00:23:59.000 hey, if you wanna try to homeschool, you gotta pay like $10,000 a year to do it.
00:24:03.000 But if you take them to a public school, it's only like two, $3,000 in taxes.
00:24:08.000 So just questions about that.
00:24:10.000 Really smart question.
00:24:11.000 And thank you for being a member.
00:24:12.000 Yes, so our taxes are not being consistent with our values.
00:24:15.000 What you're talking about is a breakdown of the social contract.
00:24:17.000 And when the social contract breaks down, bad things really start to occur.
00:24:22.000 I'm not saying stop paying taxes, I'm not saying any of that, or inferring it.
00:24:26.000 But we are on dangerous territory and very shaky ground if the government continues to spend our tax dollars that they take by force, that they confiscate from us, it's confiscatory, and deploy it towards projects that are directly at odds with our values and the American people.
00:24:46.000 What was the second part of your question?
00:24:48.000 About homeschooling, making sure that it's more affordable and incentivized as opposed to government guidance.
00:24:53.000 Yeah, it's hard because every time that it is incentivized, it usually comes with strings.
00:24:57.000 I think that every family in the country, if you can afford it, should homeschool your kids.
00:25:01.000 And even if you can't afford it, try to stretch and try to make it happen.
00:25:04.000 It is one of the most important things that you can do to keep your children out of the hands of government groomers.
00:25:13.000 Who do we have next, Miss Daisy?
00:25:14.000 Lonnie.
00:25:15.000 Lonnie, thank you for being a member.
00:25:17.000 What's on your mind?
00:25:18.000 Do you guys think that Democrats will be able to rig the election again?
00:25:22.000 No.
00:25:23.000 Not if we have anything to say about it.
00:25:24.000 We're starting to clean up voting rolls.
00:25:26.000 We are chasing ballots, registering voters.
00:25:28.000 They're gonna try, but we're gonna hopefully make it too big to rig.
00:25:31.000 And anyone who says, oh, it's gonna be rigged no matter what, I'm not saying you're saying this, Lonnie, but anyone who says that, I think is engaging in a cultural defeatism and cynicism.
00:25:41.000 So, not if we have anything to say about it.
00:25:43.000 Ernie!
00:25:44.000 You bet.
00:25:45.000 Ernie, what a great name.
00:25:46.000 Ernie, thanks for being a member.
00:25:47.000 What's on your mind?
00:25:48.000 Hi, Charlie, can you hear me?
00:25:49.000 Yes, how are you?
00:25:51.000 I'm doing well.
00:25:52.000 At least my computer didn't crash this week.
00:25:54.000 Well, that's good.
00:25:55.000 Hey, have you ever read the book Love and Duty by Ben and Ann Purcell?
00:26:03.000 I have not.
00:26:03.000 Tell me about it.
00:26:04.000 Okay.
00:26:05.000 Back in like 98 or 99, I had the pleasure of meeting this guy when I was stationed at the Air Force Survival School.
00:26:14.000 And he was the highest ranking Army POW during Vietnam War.
00:26:22.000 And the book is kind of written like a diary that goes back and forth.
00:26:27.000 One chapter is him, next chapter is his wife, the next chapter is him, and so on.
00:26:33.000 And they describe how they basically both stare at the devil in the eyes.
00:26:40.000 Him in a physical capacity, her in an emotional capacity.
00:26:46.000 And the only reason they got through that was because of faith.
00:26:51.000 They had faith in God.
00:26:53.000 They had faith in their country and faith in each other.
00:26:56.000 And I highly suggest... I will check it out.
00:27:00.000 It's called Love and Duty.
00:27:02.000 Love and Duty by Ben and Ann Purcell.
00:27:05.000 It's real easy reading and it's still available.
00:27:10.000 They haven't memory hold it yet.
00:27:11.000 God bless you, Ernie.
00:27:12.000 Thanks for being a member.
00:27:13.000 Call anytime.
00:27:14.000 Thank you.
00:27:15.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:27:15.000 Thank you.
00:27:17.000 Okay, who do we have to close out here?
00:27:20.000 Oh, let's go to the written ones, the people that weren't able to unmute.
00:27:23.000 Lee, quote, Charlie, do you feel that Kamala Harris is leaning more socialists with the way she wants to tax the corporations and businesses more?
00:27:23.000 Got it.
00:27:30.000 Yes.
00:27:31.000 Kamala Harris is a communist and she is strictly interested in wealth confiscation and middle class deterioration.
00:27:43.000 And so Kamala Harris would basically be a communist death blow to the United States of America.
00:27:49.000 Sandra, please advise us as the best use of time in Illinois.
00:27:53.000 Door-to-door, I'm a precinct committee woman in Springfield, Illinois.
00:27:56.000 The best thing you can do in central Illinois is focus on your House of Representatives seats.
00:28:02.000 That is by far the best use of time, the best use of energy, because unfortunately Donald Trump is not going to win Illinois.
00:28:11.000 Okay, let me see here.
00:28:13.000 Do we have other questions?
00:28:14.000 Oh yeah, Daisy sent them.
00:28:15.000 Sorry.
00:28:16.000 Let's go to Candace.
00:28:17.000 Well, it's interesting.
00:28:18.000 Eric Holder, who was the former Attorney General under Barack Hussein Obama, was in charge of all the vetting.
00:28:21.000 I don't think they missed it, but they saw it and they didn't think it was a big deal.
00:28:24.000 It is a big deal.
00:28:24.000 serve prison time. Why would Kamala chosen him then? Did they not check? Well, it's interesting.
00:28:28.000 Eric Holder, who was the former attorney general under Barack Hussein Obama, was in charge of all
00:28:33.000 the vetting. I don't know if they missed, I don't think they missed it, but they saw it. They didn't
00:28:36.000 think it was a big deal. It is a big deal. Very, very, very unlikely that he serves prison time.
00:28:43.000 Very unlikely, but it's possible.
00:28:45.000 But it seems as if they did not do their vetting.
00:28:48.000 Look, the Gen Z vote is going to go to Kamala in pretty substantial numbers.
00:28:51.000 But I think we're going to lose by less.
00:28:53.000 I pray for you and my grandkids daily.
00:28:55.000 Look, the Gen Z vote's gonna go to Kamala in pretty substantial numbers, but I think
00:28:59.000 we're gonna lose by less.
00:29:00.000 I think Donald Trump will do better with the Gen Z vote than we did in 2020.
00:29:04.000 That is why I am visiting 21 college campuses.
00:29:07.000 We are dedicating our entire social media machine towards exposing Kamala Harris, getting people to think openly and creatively about this election, and to hopefully make the right decision.
00:29:15.000 Vote for Trump and not vote for Harris-Walls.
00:29:18.000 I can't get over how awful that sounds.
00:29:19.000 Harris-Walls.
00:29:20.000 Harris-Walls.
00:29:21.000 It's like some law firm.
00:29:22.000 We're Harris-Walls.
00:29:23.000 We're here to represent you because your foot got ran over by a tractor or something.
00:29:27.000 Harris-Walls.
