00:00:44.000His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:00:52.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:02:04.000The piggyback off of Chris Rufo's part about colleges and you going on campus and doing your events and me working with colleges is if we...
00:02:17.000The DEI hiring and the DEI and what they're doing with free speech on campus, would it be better off to do, strip the nonprofit status away from schools so they would have to change hiring processes, change education processes, and
00:02:32.000be more streamlined to produce a better quality student and to bring in better quality workers?
00:02:44.000So first and foremost, if any of these camp colleges are caught violating the Supreme Court decision of the fair admissions case, They should lose their non-profit status.
00:02:54.000Even more than that, this is where Congress is going to have to get involved and it's going to be very difficult, is that Congress should say that these endowments need to be involved in helping make their graduates whole with their student loan debt.
00:03:12.000And honestly, these campuses should lose student loan access.
00:03:22.000You have a non-profit status because you are doing a public good.
00:03:26.000And so the question remains, if these universities are actively discriminating against people of a certain race, of which is happening all the time, Princeton literally says, do not hire white men unless absolutely necessary.
00:04:04.000However, going after these schools on the anti-Semitism stuff is actually the weakest of all the points that we could possibly go after them on.
00:05:15.000Hey Charlie, do you have any advice to get out of the lukewarm Christian rut that's so easy to get stuck in after becoming saved and maintaining a relationship with God?
00:05:29.000The best answer I have for you is to go deeper, which is to—the scriptures are infinitely deep for anyone that wishes to study them, but they're also immediately accessible for the entire population.
00:05:45.000So my advice for you is to pick a part of the Bible that you really care about.
00:05:50.000Maybe it's the book of John or maybe the book of Genesis.
00:05:56.000Understand the profundity and the beauty of what you articulate.
00:05:59.000And all of a sudden your mind is going to start rolling like, wow, I never knew the civilizational implications of Genesis 1 or Genesis 2. To get out of that lukewarm Christian rut, the way I get out of it is by study and scholarship.
00:06:14.000That's not the way that everyone does.
00:06:16.000Some people get out of a lukewarm Christian rut through community.
00:06:19.000They spend more time with people that are Christians, and that helps them get out of it.
00:06:25.000But for me, whenever I get into there, we all do.
00:06:28.000I haven't recently, to be perfectly honest with you, it's by better understanding and better appreciating the splendor and the wonder and the improbability of our faith and to appreciate that.
00:06:42.000And to understand the philosophy and the grandeur of the Bible and to get back to the original Hebrew, to get back to the original Greek.
00:06:55.000There are so many resources I could point to, Gracie, if this is interesting to you.
00:06:59.000I don't know if the more scholarly, philosophical approach is.
00:07:03.000John MacArthur's biblical commentary on the book of John is one of the best.
00:07:08.000Dennis Prager's Rational Bible, and we should all keep Dennis Prager in our prayers, by the way, on the book of Genesis, I think would really challenge you, Gracie, because you would come after your faith in a different perspective.
00:07:24.000I never knew that the distinctions of just the creation story alone in the book of Genesis, where God created the heavens of the earth and he separated chaos from order, just that alone you could spend a whole year studying and understanding the depth there.
00:07:42.000So that would be some of my initial advice for you, Gracie.
00:08:15.000I'm not Catholic, but I will, as I said last, Last week, I will sometimes go to the local Catholic Church because there's so much meaning and reverence in those cathedrals, more so than just walking into Sam's Club.
00:08:29.000And finally, you have to know—this is my last point, Gracie—it's a phenomenal question, and thank you for it.
00:08:34.000You have to know how you are made to worship.
00:08:38.000Everyone is made to worship differently.
00:08:41.000I am mainly made to worship by study, scholarship, and sharing my faith.
00:08:47.000Sharing my faith through my speeches, through my debates, through exploring the faith with other people.
00:08:54.000Other people are not made to worship that way.
00:08:56.000Other people are made to worship through music, which I totally encourage a lot of people to see.
00:11:00.000And I can't tell you enough how much Europe and Germany are at a tipping point for political transformation.
00:11:06.000And you're one of the few that sense that in the U.S. And your support for free speech, Alternative for Deutschland, is helping drive this change.
00:12:12.000We're going to find a new date for that, as I think Dr. Peterson's European tour is...
00:12:18.000And so, but yeah, my main visit will be at Oxford.
00:12:21.000I've been actually booked to do Oxford two or three times prior, and so I'm excited to be able to go to Oxford coming up in just a couple weeks.
00:12:50.000The second of which is they don't have robust free speech.
00:12:53.000It's hard to build a political movement if you cannot speak.
00:12:58.000It's hard to oppose power if all of a sudden they're going to knock on your door and they're going to take your devices and arrest you in Germany.
00:17:40.000He wanted to know who was your hardest person to debate.
00:17:44.000So I wouldn't say it was a debate, but let's just say the hardest conversation I've had, only because I don't like the smell of marijuana, was my conversation with Bill Maher.
00:19:41.000I don't know if you heard that or not, David, but we endorsed Steve Hilton.
00:19:45.000But between Steve Hilton and the sheriff, the Riverside sheriff, Chad Bianco, that's probably all going to sort itself out in the primary.
00:19:53.000And then whoever wins the primary, we're going to get 100% behind.
00:19:57.000So it is going to be quite the spirited primary.
00:20:02.000I hope Steve wins, and then we can consolidate the entire party to launch a Serious effort to win back the Governor's Mansion in California.
00:20:09.000What part of California do you live in?
00:20:38.000Happy Friday, and thanks for doing this.
00:20:39.000I just wanted to see, do you know if anything's being worked on at all regarding the census and congressional apportionment?
00:20:47.000I know that our majority would be larger if we only counted citizens, and I think the Biden administration, someone called the illegitimate Biden regime, sort of kind of played with the numbers and kind of rigged that last census and how it was laid out.
00:21:01.000I know it would just give us a much bigger margin to play with.
00:21:06.000There's also electoral vote strategy there, too, just around kind of correcting that apportionment with just citizens.
00:21:21.000On top of that, the major issue around the citizenship question...
00:21:28.000Have you heard anyone comment on that recently or kind of mention that?
00:21:33.000I'm just curious if that's as big of an issue.
00:21:36.000Well, there have been the case that went down a few years ago that we kind of went against, saying that it sort of couldn't be applied or whatever, and then we just had the one the other day that said that requiring it, the citizenship question on the actual voter registration application got shot down.
00:21:55.000It's like we're kind of getting blocked by these lawless judges at every turn.
00:21:58.000It all plays into basically limiting our chances to enact the will of the people and give the Democrats essentially the blockade to thwart that.
00:22:09.000So let me talk more macro, then I'll do micro.
00:22:12.000One of my biggest concerns right now is when millions of people look at their political system and they voted for something.
00:22:21.000And they donated for something and they won and then unelected judges get in the way from allowing that to happen.
00:22:32.000Just so we are clear, Congress would have to fund a new census in order to do this and not counting non-citizens would require friendly court rulings.
00:22:40.000It would be legal to do a new census though and probably desirable because the 2020 census was obviously mangled by COVID.
00:22:47.000I think President Trump should call another census.
00:22:49.000I believe it is the 14th Amendment that has the census in it, right, Blake, if I'm not mistaken?
00:22:54.000The 14th Amendment has everything in it.
00:23:20.000It's Article 1, Section 2. The census specifically, in regards to the congressional approachment, is addressed in both Article 1 and Section 2 of the Constitution and the 14th Amendment.
00:23:34.000So, look, going back to the macro point, if millions of people vote for something and they get the opposite, what does that mean for our country?
00:26:00.000Assessor is the insurance is involved in this property tax.
00:26:04.000If you want to see upside down property taxes, go to Cook County, Illinois.
00:26:08.000It is the worst in the country where you have homes that are valued at eight, nine hundred thousand and your property tax bill is thirty or forty thousand dollars a year.
00:27:03.000I'm earning less money per dollar because of inflation, and now my house is worth double that I can't even sell, and now I have to pay more taxes even though I have less money.
00:28:21.000Actually, I'm interested in moving up in law enforcement.
00:28:25.000Like I said in my question, I opted out of going to college because of financial situations in my family.
00:28:31.000And I also didn't want to put myself in debt, not knowing exactly where I wanted to be in my life.
00:28:36.000I am interested in going into the U.S. Marshals Service.
00:28:39.000And when looking into the requirements of getting hired on there, they do require a degree, a law enforcement degree, or an extended amount of experience required.
00:28:51.000It doesn't specify, but my assumption would be five to ten years in the field.
00:28:57.000I've kind of been set back a little bit because I broke my back last year, and so I was not able to take a field position, so I am still in the detention center.
00:29:07.000And I'm just curious to see what you would think if it would be worth it for me to go to an online university and get the degree in order to bump my chances of getting that job, or if I should just stick to it and spend the extra time getting the experience and potentially getting it that way.
00:29:25.000If you have a specific goal that a degree is needed for and the math works out, then go for it.
00:29:31.000Our warnings are not to get aimless degrees.
00:29:34.000I can't comment specifically about online programs, but I'd ask somebody experience in your field and maybe contact existing marshals.
00:29:47.000Actually, the department that I work for has a lot of marshal contracts.
00:29:51.000So we do work with the marshals, not myself directly, but the people at my department do, and we hold a lot of marshal inmates.
00:29:59.000And I think that I could make a much better impact in some of these people's lives and help them become better members of society when they get out if I'm in a higher position.
00:30:13.000And that's my goal in law enforcement.
00:31:16.000And I say that as someone, I know that I'm talking to someone that wants to be a woman in law enforcement, but yes, the same standards, same tasks, absolutely, without a doubt.
