00:01:55.000 This whole hour is dedicated to our members.
00:01:57.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:01:59.000 Anthony, thank you for being a member.
00:02:01.000 What's on your mind?
00:02:02.000 Hey there, Charlie.
00:02:03.000 Two questions.
00:02:05.000 One is a topic you touched on yesterday about special elections.
00:02:08.000 And that question is, why do GOP voters not want to come out for those or local elections?
00:02:15.000 Because they just seem to want to come out for federal for some reason.
00:02:18.000 And the next question is, Federal law enforcement has all right to come into an area that's a sanctuary city to get rid of illegals. 0.97
00:02:26.000 The city of Rochester in New York has told its police, who assisted us this week with federal law enforcement, now that 10 to 11 guys have to go through rehabilitation and they want them fired.
00:02:37.000 And it's made a big stink in the area where I live because of this.
00:02:41.000 How can a city or a county tell their local law enforcement when it's in the code that they have to work with the federal law enforcement?
00:02:48.000 Okay, great questions, Anthony.
00:02:49.000 Great to hear your voice.
00:02:50.000 And you're a long-term member, and I really appreciate it.
00:02:52.000 Let me start with your first question.
00:02:53.000 So, as everybody should know, coming up on Tuesday is our Wisconsin special election.
00:03:00.000 It is the Supreme Court seat, and it will determine the future of Wisconsin.
00:03:04.000 And with it, it could determine the entire future of the U.S. House and potentially the presidency.
00:03:09.000 It is an incredibly important election.
00:03:12.000 President Trump has remade the Republican Party.
00:03:15.000 He has remade the Republican Party to be a working-class party, to be a low-propensity party. 0.55
00:03:21.000 So the answer to your question, Anthony, can be best described by the difference between a high-propensity voter and a low-propensity voter.
00:03:29.000 A high-propensity voter is someone who watches more than one hour of news a week.
00:03:34.000 A high-propensity voter would consider themselves mildly political or very political.
00:03:38.000 They read the newspaper.
00:03:39.000 They go and talk to their friends about politics.
00:03:41.000 They have some general awareness about what is happening in the news.
00:03:45.000 Now, mind you, if you're a Charlie Kirk member, You're likely a high-propensity voter, but I'm going to put an asterisk on that in just a second.
00:03:52.000 I'm going to get back to that in a second.
00:03:53.000 A low-propensity voter are more people that are likely to be Trump. 0.98
00:03:57.000 Now, it's not a matter of being, oh, high-propensity voters are smarter or low-propensity voters are dumber. 0.97
00:04:02.000 It matters who cares more.
00:04:04.000 High-propensity voters tend to care about politics more than low-propensity voters.
00:04:08.000 Low-propensity voters tend to be black or Hispanic, working-class whites, people that are working with their hands. 0.97
00:04:14.000 We call them the muscular class.
00:04:17.000 On this program.
00:04:18.000 Now traditionally, Democrats dominated lower propensity voters and struggled with higher propensity voters.
00:04:24.000 But a decade ago, actually, special elections used to be really good for Republicans.
00:04:29.000 We used to do great in spring elections and fall elections and off year elections, and we would struggle in higher turnout elections.
00:04:36.000 The way it used to be is the higher the turnout, the better for Democrats, the lower the turnout, the better for Republicans.
00:04:41.000 That has completely changed because of President Trump.
00:04:44.000 Now, actually, the lower the turnout, the better for Democrats, the higher the turnout, the better for Republicans.
00:04:49.000 Because the Democrats have become a high propensity party.
00:04:53.000 more college educated, more suburban, more elite.
00:04:57.000 More wealthy.
00:04:58.000 The Republican Party has become a lower propensity party, more working class, not as wealthy, not as politically engaged.
00:05:05.000 That is why they had to try to take out Donald Trump.
00:05:08.000 That is why they were cheering for his assassination and they tried to put him in jail for 700 years because he was a celebrity figure.
00:05:15.000 And I was able to draw attention to lower propensity voters, give them a message and give them hope, and expand the electorate and build a base that was never presented for a Republican candidate until President Trump came along.
00:05:29.000 To your second question, I don't know the details of the Rochester situation.
00:05:33.000 All I can say is this, is that federal law enforcement is going to go into these communities even if local enforcement says that ICE or the FBI are not welcome.
00:05:44.000 We have federal supremacy in this country, and it's time for us to liberate these sanctuary cities from Tren de Aragua and these Mexican drug cartels that have been doing such damage in our country. 0.99
00:05:55.000 Aurora, Colorado, Springfield, Ohio, etc.
00:05:59.000 Anthony, thank you for your question.
00:06:00.000 Really appreciate that.
00:06:01.000 Thanks, Charlie.
00:06:02.000 David, thank you for being a member.
00:06:04.000 What's on your mind and where are you from?
00:06:06.000 Speaker Johnson spoke yesterday about That we can get rid of some of these rogue judges that are trying to subvert the will of the people.
00:06:21.000 How do we go about doing that?
00:06:24.000 So it's going to be hard.
00:06:25.000 It's going to be difficult to completely remove some of these rogue judges.
00:06:30.000 Potentially we can go through an impeachment process.
00:06:33.000 The best way to actually put them in their place is through public humiliation.
00:06:38.000 The best way is to have higher courts just scathe them for their decisions because so many of these judges, so many of these judges, they trade on reputation.
00:06:52.000 And all the while, if they are not able to lose their job or their judgeship, but if they kind of are considered to be a radical joke, a fringe laughingstock, then That is one very serious way that we could hold them accountable.
00:07:10.000 I am a little hesitant on impeachment, to be honest.
00:07:13.000 I don't think it's actually going to work.
00:07:15.000 I don't think we have the votes.
00:07:16.000 I actually think that it could embolden other judges to double and triple down.
00:07:22.000 And so the best way is hopefully for a higher court to hurt their reputation and to show and expose the judicial despotism and the Article 3 Thank you, David, for your question.
00:07:39.000 Really appreciate it.
00:07:40.000 But the unelected judiciary is a major problem occurring in our country right now.
00:07:45.000 Karen, thank you for being a member.
00:07:47.000 Karen, where are you from and what's on your mind?
00:07:49.000 Hi, Charlie.
00:07:51.000 Yes, my name is Karen.
00:07:53.000 I'm from Santa Clarita, California.
00:07:56.000 I am a baby bloomer and I'm for Trump.
00:08:01.000 Wonderful. Thank you.
00:08:03.000 You are the type of boomer that we love and we appreciate.
00:08:06.000 Thanks. My question.
00:08:09.000 I would like to understand security clearances.
00:08:13.000 For instance, who gets them?
00:08:15.000 Are there levels like top secret, medium, etc.?
00:08:19.000 Is it a feather in the cap for those who get it?
00:08:23.000 Why is it a big deal if someone who's no longer in the government no longer gets to keep theirs?
00:08:30.000 What a great question.
00:08:31.000 It makes national, even international news.
00:08:33.000 What's the big deal?
00:08:35.000 What a great question, Karen.
00:08:37.000 So White House staff, so senior White House staff, such as chief of staff, or what is called assistants to the presidents, they all have to go through a background check because they'll be dealing around what is classified, potentially, information, secret or top secret.
00:08:52.000 So there is a hierarchy.
00:08:53.000 I believe it goes secret, top secret, and confidential secret, top secret, Classified.
00:09:01.000 So security clearances are granted to people all across the government.
00:09:05.000 President Trump obviously gets the highest level of the security clearance, regardless of any background check, because he's the duly elected president.
00:09:11.000 But you ask the most operative question.
00:09:14.000 Why do people still want security clearances when they're outside of government?
00:09:19.000 So there's something called a TSSCI, which is a top-secret, sensitive, compartmented information.
00:09:26.000 Which is a security designation that is the highest level of classified information.
00:09:31.000 A TSSCI.
00:09:32.000 One of the major reasons why people want to have a TSSCI when they get out of government is they're able to trade on that for future cable news gigs, for non-profit boards.
00:09:47.000 It makes them more money because they're able to have some sort of an aura of professional confidentiality.
00:09:55.000 And so the types of security clearances, it goes TSSCI, I was somewhat right, then top secret, then secret, then confidential.
00:10:04.000 The confidential allows information to classified as confidential.
00:10:09.000 So there is a hierarchy there.
00:10:12.000 The final thing is this, when you take someone like John Brennan or John Bolton that had a classified security clearance or they were still getting security briefings, when President Trump pulls that clearance, it makes it harder for them to make money on the outside and it severely damages their reputation.
00:10:31.000 Great question, Karen.
00:10:32.000 I hope that helped answer it.
00:10:34.000 Thank you.

00:11:45.000 I got like six messages in the last break.
00:11:48.000 You have to understand that while we're doing a show here, running Turning Point USA, running Turning Point Action, we have all the social media stuff, we got our speaking, we got our traveling, we got a lot going on.
00:11:59.000 So all of a sudden, sometimes, every so often, lightning strikes in a bottle and there's like five different crises that happen in 180 seconds.
00:12:08.000 That is one of those days.
00:12:09.000 With that, let's go to Richard.
00:12:10.000 Richard, thank you for being a member.
00:12:12.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:12:13.000 What's on your mind?
00:12:15.000 Hey Charlie, I'm calling in and I want to make it really quick because I am in a foreign country and even being on the call puts me at risk of being punished by my employer.
00:12:25.000 That being said, I want to move back to the States.
00:12:29.000 However, I'm only 20 and my father, not a U.S. citizen, took me away.
00:12:35.000 My mother wasn't I have expensive medical issues. 1.00
00:12:45.000 How can people like me who want to go home, who want to be in the greatest country on earth, how can we kind of find a way back home?
00:12:56.000 Okay, first of all, I don't want to put you in jeopardy here.
00:12:58.000 Did you say you were born in America?
00:13:00.000 Are you a U.S. citizen?
00:13:01.000 I guess is a good question.
00:13:02.000 I'm a U.S. citizen, yes.
00:13:04.000 I was born in Detroit, Michigan.
00:13:05.000 My mother is from Detroit, Michigan.
00:13:08.000 My father is from a foreign country.
00:13:10.000 Well, my advice is since you're a U.S. citizen, you have a passport, get back home. 1.00
00:13:15.000 You have constitutional protections.
00:13:17.000 You have the ability of the freedom of movement back home.
00:13:22.000 My personal opinion would be If you want to come back here, get on a plane and get here.
00:13:29.000 And so I know you have serious medical issues that you say and expensive ones.
00:13:34.000 I can't comment on that.
00:13:35.000 But as a U.S. passport holder, we would love to have you here.
00:13:39.000 If you're in a dangerous country that does not allow you to leave, go to a consulate or go to the embassy, and they could definitely help you navigate that.
00:13:50.000 If I can ask, what do you see as the top obstacle to returning to America?
00:13:54.000 Well, currently I signed a contract with the current government and I'm obligated to serve with them for another couple of months.
00:14:04.000 So I made that contract.
00:14:06.000 I'm going to honor that obligation that I made because it's not a terrorist country.
00:14:11.000 It's an ally that disagrees currently.
00:14:15.000 But speaking out against the government in my position is punishable by charges.
00:14:20.000 Well, I don't want you to tell us where you are, but just so everyone understands, he could be anywhere from Toronto, Canada to Dublin, Ireland to Berlin, Germany.
00:14:30.000 Our allies are not treating us like allies right now.
00:14:33.000 Thank you for your question, man.
00:14:34.000 Happy to talk privately if that's helpful.
00:14:36.000 Thank you, Richard.
00:14:37.000 Okay, Shane.
00:14:38.000 Shane, thank you for being a member.
00:14:39.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:14:41.000 What's on your mind?
00:14:42.000 Hey, Charlie.
00:14:43.000 I'm calling from Wisconsin.
00:14:45.000 Great. I just wanted to know in regards to Gaming.
00:14:50.000 I don't know how up-to-date you are on gaming and what's happening in gaming, but the woke agenda and the trans narrative are both being injected into modern-day gaming in a variety of ways, and it's very sickening. 1.00
00:15:05.000 Anything from like character creation, forcing your character to have they, them pronouns, including trans body parts, games with narratives that lecture the player on proper pronoun usage and what it means to be transgender.
00:15:20.000 And like these games are being advertised to children, everything down to like under 13 years old on top of as well as adults.
00:15:30.000 And a lot of them showcase the being transgender as this, as this positive influence thing that it's a wild adventure.
00:15:40.000 And then, meanwhile, the woke agenda pushes male characters, including historically male characters, out of the picture, forcing them to become female.
00:15:53.000 Black Lives Matter, propaganda everywhere, racial bigotry, aversion to white males, etc.
00:15:58.000 I just wanted to know what your thoughts were on this and if you were aware of it.
00:16:02.000 Well, first of all, I have to ask, have you voted yet in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, or do you have a plan to vote?
00:16:08.000 I do have a plan to vote on Monday.
00:16:11.000 My wife gets out of work. 0.89
00:16:12.000 We're going for Brad Schimmel.
00:16:13.000 Good answer.
00:16:13.000 Thank you.
00:16:14.000 I had to check that box and thank you for the awareness.
00:16:17.000 I'll be very honest with you and I will because you guys know that I don't hold back.
00:16:22.000 I used to be in video gaming and then I grew up and became an adult.
00:16:26.000 I really don't think very highly of video games.
00:16:28.000 I'll be very honest.
00:16:29.000 So I'm not really aware of this.
00:16:31.000 I know that everyone has their own release.
00:16:34.000 I have seen A lot of people...
00:16:37.000 Blake likes video games, and he's incredibly smart.
00:16:40.000 So it's not an indictment of any intelligence.
00:16:42.000 I will say it is an incredible time suck.
00:16:45.000 Video games can be extraordinarily time-consuming.
00:16:49.000 So if you're able to balance it, God bless you.
00:16:51.000 Some people play hundreds of hours for these games.
00:16:54.000 Here's my advice, I suppose, which is...
00:16:58.000 Fine video games, I guess, of consumer choice.
00:17:01.000 There are more video games than people could ever play, so I suppose that would be my piece of advice.
00:17:06.000 But, not here to say you're a bad person for playing video games, but I definitely could not be successful if I had to play video games, that's for sure.
00:17:13.000 Well, thank you very much.

00:18:25.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com. What's on your mind?
00:18:28.000 Hi Charlie, my name is Katrina.
00:18:31.000 I'm in Phoenix.
00:18:34.000 But I was born and raised in the Philippines and I got my US citizenship recently.
00:18:39.000 So I have a question.
00:18:40.000 Since I work at healthcare and I get a lot of patients that are VA, from the VA, and they are, they have been airing out their frustration about the administration cutting the budget, VA budget.
00:18:55.000 So how do I respond or answer their frustrations?
00:19:01.000 Thank you so much.
00:19:02.000 Yeah, of course.
00:19:02.000 Thank you for being a member.
00:19:03.000 So do you work for the VA or you just work in health care?
00:19:08.000 No, I don't work for the VA.
00:19:10.000 We just get a lot of patients from VA.
00:19:12.000 I'm curious what, if you had to summarize one or two, and by the way, great job becoming a citizen.
00:19:18.000 God bless you.
00:19:20.000 If you had to summarize one or two of their complaints, what would they be?
00:19:26.000 Just so I can hear for myself.
00:19:28.000 So they say that they're not getting the same benefits as they were in the past.
00:19:39.000 Some of the things that they were, for example, because I am in a like a acute rehab facility and they say that the Got it.
00:20:06.000 So I don't really even know how to respond to that.
00:20:10.000 To my knowledge, none of that is true.
00:20:12.000 I suppose, again, I can't even comprehend quite honestly how Donald Trump would be able to even get in the way of these services.
00:20:23.000 President Trump And Secretary Collins have said multiple times that these cuts are not going to go after the delivering of care for VA.
00:20:33.000 In the first Trump administration, President Trump allowed vets to see private doctors.
00:20:39.000 I think that is the direction that we should get into.
00:20:42.000 And we do know that there is a lot of malicious compliance going on throughout the government.
00:20:48.000 And so there's also people saying, oh, well, you want to save money?
00:20:53.000 I guess we'll have to shut down this popular program.
00:20:56.000 So hard to understand or get to the essence of the truth of it.
00:21:01.000 But we're going to look into it, Katrina.
00:21:02.000 And thank you for being a message.
00:21:03.000 member. We really appreciate it.
00:21:05.000 Thank you.
00:21:05.000 Thank you.
00:21:06.000 Okay, before we get to Jackson, I do need to play some breaking news.
00:21:10.000 President Trump, what is a woman? 0.99
00:21:12.000 Play cut 374.
00:21:13.000 Well, it's sort of easy to answer for me because a woman is somebody that can have a baby under certain circumstances.
00:21:21.000 She has a quality.
00:21:23.000 A woman is a person who's much smarter than a man, I've always found.
00:21:28.000 A woman is a person that doesn't give a man even a chance of success. 1.00
00:21:33.000 And a woman's a person that in many cases has been treated very badly because I think that what happens with this crazy, this crazy issue of men being able to play in women's sports is just ridiculous and very unfair to women and very demeaning to women. 0.71
00:21:49.000 That's a great answer.
00:21:51.000 That is a 10. Well done, President Trump.
00:21:53.000 That is excellent and the moral clarity that we deserve.
00:21:57.000 That was just some breaking news I wanted to throw in there.
00:21:59.000 Jackson, thank you for being a member.
00:22:01.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:22:02.000 What's on your mind, Jackson?
00:22:04.000 Good day, Mr. Kirk.
00:22:05.000 I am a huge fan of what you do on The Charlie Kirk Show and what you've done for this country via Turning Point USA.
00:22:13.000 And I just wanted to ask you a few questions, but the first that comes to mind is that I've seen that you're very open and very critical when it comes to the judgment of our past presidents.
00:22:22.000 I was wondering, who do you think our best presidents were?
00:22:25.000 I believe that our best president was Abraham Lincoln, with or without propaganda.
00:22:31.000 I believe George Washington.
00:22:32.000 I would agree.
00:22:33.000 Lincoln is definitely on the list.
00:22:34.000 Dwight D. Eisenhower.
00:22:36.000 I do have a soft spot for Teddy Roosevelt.
00:22:39.000 And I would say President Trump.
00:22:40.000 I do love Calvin Coolidge.
00:22:42.000 I gotta be honest.
00:22:43.000 Calvin Coolidge was awesome.
00:22:44.000 He shrunk the size of government.
00:22:46.000 Silent Cal, as they would call him.
00:22:49.000 He dramatically tried to bring us back to the founder's vision of government.
00:22:53.000 And so that would be my list.
00:22:55.000 And I could give you the worst ones as well.
00:22:58.000 I would say Ulysses S. Grant was no good.
00:23:08.000 Joe Biden was definitely on the list.
00:23:10.000 Obama was no good.
00:23:12.000 But Biden was much worse than Obama. 0.99
00:23:14.000 Jimmy Carter was a disaster.
00:23:16.000 And yeah, I do agree.
00:23:17.000 Blake chimed in.
00:23:18.000 Lyndon Baines Johnson might have been the worst president in American history.
00:23:23.000 And Woodrow Wilson as well.
00:23:24.000 I would have to put those on the list, for sure.
00:23:26.000 Thanks for being a member, man.
00:23:27.000 I wish we'd get to more questions, but we're running out of time.
00:23:30.000 Matt, thank you for being a member.
00:23:32.000 What's on your mind?
00:23:33.000 Members.CharlieKirk.com.
00:23:35.000 Hello. How are you?
00:23:36.000 What's on your mind?
00:23:38.000 Well, hi Charlie.
00:23:39.000 Hi. So, dittos, because I was a blue dog in the crack.
00:23:43.000 God bless you.
00:23:44.000 Yeah, my wife was born, she was a rush baby, so she opened my eyes and I found out that we had fake news.
00:23:52.000 And fast forward to 2020, I have an advanced medical degree, and I saw all the writing on the wall for the fake election because of the wish-washiness that was being done.
00:24:04.000 And My question is, are you familiar with ADE, which is Antibody Dependent Enhancement?
00:24:10.000 I am not, so antibody...
00:24:13.000 educate me really quick.
00:24:14.000 Okay, so Antibody Dependent Enhancement is something that it's been seen with multiple vaccine attempts in the past.
00:24:22.000 And so in 2020, I feel like I saw it from a political angle, but also medical.
00:24:27.000 And one of the things that I saw with NIH was, you know, they saw compelling evidence with SARS-1 uh that people when they tried to do the vaccine for animals they couldn't even get to the primate stages because um the animals would receive the antibody it would attach to the cell and then um unfortunately like they would get exposed a few months down the road and that antibody had retarded a little bit so it would receive the virus but 0.58
00:24:56.000 then it would facilitate it into the cell and so the animals would get very very sick and they would sometimes die And the people at NIH, the good scientists, I think, they specifically said, we need to have a consent form that outlines ADE, because we've seen it with dengue virus, RSV, measles, SARS-1, that this is a very real threat.
00:25:20.000 And nobody ever spoke about it.
00:25:22.000 And now I've been in the medical field for 15 years, and I'm the only person I've known that actually knew what it was, because I did some basic research and saw that some people out there wanted Others to know, don't take this experimental vaccine without being aware of this very real risk that these antibodies are going to ultimately make it easier for you to get sick.
00:25:42.000 And we've seen that.
00:25:43.000 And we are.
00:25:44.000 And I'm far from an expert on this.
00:25:45.000 And I will send this clip to Dr. Malone, Dr. Robert Malone.
00:25:49.000 I will emphasize, Can I pay you a quick compliment?
00:26:16.000 I shut everything off in 2020 because I was so disgusted, and my wife said, I was very much, I dove into my spirituality, probably watched every Billy Graham video on YouTube, and I ultimately decided that I would try to find someone with strong faith that addressed politics, and that is you, and I'm so grateful for you that I'm even a little bit, you know, emotional.
00:26:38.000 That's beautiful, and thank your wife for prompting you to stay involved, and everything we do comes from a scriptural lens here on this program.
00:26:47.000 It's all back Yes, Charlie.
00:27:03.000 After last year, people have a real problem with presidential pardons.
00:27:07.000 I'd like to see it change so that in a presidential election year, all pardons must be completed two weeks prior to the first vote cast, and all pardons must be announced in some manner so that nothing can be hidden.
00:27:19.000 This would allow people to consider absurd actions like Biden did prior to casting their vote, and surely anyone that deserves a pardon the day before inauguration also deserves it prior to Election Day.
00:27:33.000 Can you see any way that this could get done?
00:27:36.000 It's not a bad idea, but we need an amendment.
00:27:39.000 The Constitution explicitly gives this power.
00:27:42.000 And it derives from the old royal power where the right to pardon is just absolute.
00:27:48.000 I mean, look, the pardon power has been abused by Republicans.
00:27:50.000 It's been used by Democrats.
00:27:53.000 It's not a bad idea.
00:27:54.000 And I, again, we have yet to do this.
00:27:56.000 I've been saying this for months and it's no one's fault.
00:27:59.000 We still need to have someone come on the program and explain the Anthony Fauci pardons and the January 6 pardons.
00:28:05.000 Can we wrap our head around the fact that Eric Swalwell is walking around with a preemptive pardon?
00:28:10.000 They're just blanket pardons.
00:28:14.000 And the Hunter ones are really bad, but the January 6th committee got preemptive pardons.
00:28:21.000 I mean, we've been such a hurricane of news the last 60 days that we need to just kind of take a step back and say, timeout, timeout, timeout.
00:28:29.000 Anthony Fauci got a preemptive pardon.
00:28:32.000 Liz Cheney got a preemptive pardon.
00:28:34.000 In the end, the check is for people to care enough about it and revolt in disgust.
00:28:38.000 It's happened before at the state level.
00:28:40.000 This is why southern states have pardon boards and they got rid of pardons.
00:28:44.000 Because in Georgia and Texas, actually, governors don't have pardon authority anymore.
00:28:49.000 It's literally just a pardon board.
00:28:52.000 Great question.
00:28:55.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:29:58.000 Caleb, thank you for being a member.
00:30:00.000 Members.charliekirk.com.
00:30:02.000 Hey Charlie, what are you doing for your skin?
00:30:06.000 It's just glowing.
00:30:07.000 I actually, I tried banana peel on my skin yesterday, and it was really good.
00:30:14.000 All kidding aside, do you know what's really good for skin and not aging?
00:30:19.000 A couple things.
00:30:20.000 Saunas, getting lots of sleep.
00:30:23.000 Not drinking alcohol, and I have an extraordinary amount of olive oil in my diet, and I probably hydrate more than any person you've ever met.
00:30:33.000 Andrew and Blake can attest.
00:30:34.000 I always have beverages around me, and it's almost always like lemon water or something of the sort.
00:30:40.000 So, whatever it's worth, it can keep you looking young.
00:30:45.000 Yeah, we'll plug the ThoughtCrime.
00:30:47.000 That's such a fun show to watch you guys do.
00:30:49.000 Thank you.
00:30:51.000 So we're here in Raleigh, North Carolina, but tomorrow, no, Sunday, we'll be arriving in Milwaukee.
00:30:59.000 On our way home to Minnesota, we're going to do some vote chasing.
00:31:03.000 And just thought you'd like to know that.
00:31:07.000 But the question is, how do you overcome the challenges that so much traveling does for you to be connected with your kids as they're growing up and with your wife when you're spending so much time It's a phenomenal question.
00:31:25.000 And the number one thing is prioritizing the Sabbath, is trying to always be home for the Shabbat and turning off my phone completely.
00:31:33.000 Like, tonight, turn off my phone.
00:31:35.000 I'm not going to turn it back on until Sunday.
00:31:37.000 And one real quality day of rest can make up for six days of travel.
00:31:44.000 Also, I'm super blessed.
00:31:45.000 I'm able to I'm able to design my schedule in a way where I am able to prioritize family time and staying very connected to them.
00:31:54.000 I say more, I say no more than I say yes.
00:31:58.000 And also when we lived in Palm Beach literally for two months right after the election, and then we lived in Washington DC for another three weeks, I brought the whole family with me, which was just awesome.
00:32:08.000 I try not to travel for more than three or four days at a time.
00:32:12.000 That's hard obviously at times, but it's It is a very good discipline and practice to be in.
00:32:21.000 And no, I'm not Jewish, but I am writing my book Stop in the Name of God. 0.73
00:32:24.000 I've spent a lot of time on that book this week.
00:32:27.000 I'm making phenomenal progress all about how the Shabbat is a discipline that puts guardrails around my device usage and points us towards Divine and eternal principles and I work hard trying to save a future for my kids and then of course on the Shabbat I'm able to enjoy my kids and no work.
00:32:47.000 Yeah, Blake puts in the chat.
00:32:48.000 I can't talk to Charlie Friday night to Sunday a.m.
00:32:50.000 That's true.
00:32:51.000 The only way you can reach me is you call Erica.
00:32:53.000 That's how you reach me.
00:32:54.000 If it's an emergency which happens every so often.
00:32:57.000 Caleb, God bless you.
00:32:58.000 Thanks so much.
00:32:58.000 Let's get to one more.
00:32:59.000 We have time here.
00:33:01.000 Oh, yeah.
00:33:01.000 We also have recorded a special episode.
00:33:03.000 That's right.
00:33:04.000 If you are a Hey Charlie, can you hear me?
00:33:23.000 Yes, I live in the Free State of Florida now, yay!
00:33:26.000 We're part of the mass exodus from New York State, and I worked in the public library system for about 10 years up there, and I came away from that believing that libraries are basically the pagan temples of our age.
00:33:40.000 And my question is, what can we do about this?
00:33:43.000 I mean, they're taking our tax money, and I know it's not just books, you know, they have, I helped plan events, and you know, you had to stay away from all anything that That's
00:34:19.000 tough. I wish I could start one.
00:34:23.000 Yeah, the first thing is we have to try to take over library boards.
00:34:26.000 That's number one.
00:34:27.000 Number two, very similar to school boards in that regard.
00:34:30.000 It's a tough question.
00:34:31.000 I don't quite know the solution.
00:34:32.000 I will say this.
00:34:34.000 Churches and synagogues should start developing their own libraries. 0.98
00:34:38.000 I think churches have an unrealized opportunity to have a library type system that is non-woke and biblical. 0.85
00:34:47.000 Churches have a lot of space.
00:34:49.000 They could easily raise the money.
00:34:50.000 They could get a ton of books from people that go to their church that either don't want the books anymore or are deceased, and you could donate them all there.
00:34:58.000 And most university libraries are just garbage as well.
00:35:01.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
00:35:02.000 Email us as always freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:35:04.000 Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
