00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, Tan Charlie Kirk show, a new senator from California.
00:00:02.000 We introduce you to her.
00:00:04.000 And then we also discuss with Laura Logan the border and January 6th.

00:00:22.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:23.000 Here we go.
00:00:24.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:26.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:28.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:31.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:34.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:35.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:36.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:00:44.000 Turning point USA.
00:00:45.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:00:54.000 That's why we are here.
00:00:57.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at AndrewandTodd.com.
00:01:06.000 So there was great intrigue after the passing of Diane Feinstein.
00:01:10.000 Who is going to be the next senator from California?
00:01:12.000 So Gavin Newsom put himself in a corner because he said, look, it's going to be an affirmative action pick.
00:01:18.000 It's going to be a black female.
00:01:20.000 So everyone was, ooh, is it going to be Oprah Winfrey?
00:01:24.000 Is Megan Markle black?
00:01:24.000 Megan Markle.
00:01:26.000 I can't remember.
00:01:28.000 Is she black?
00:01:29.000 I can't.
00:01:30.000 No, I know that, but is it was it?
00:01:30.000 She's part black.
00:01:33.000 Was it Indian?
00:01:33.000 I can't, I can't keep track of all the different identity politics stuff.
00:01:36.000 Because Kamala Harris, they say, is black, but she's also part Indian and part Jamaican.
00:01:41.000 Again, skin color means nothing to me.
00:01:43.000 It's completely irrelevant.
00:01:45.000 And so, oh, Megan Markle is mixed.
00:01:48.000 Got it.
00:01:49.000 Dad is Caucasian.
00:01:50.000 Mom is African American, half black, half white.
00:01:54.000 It's really funny.
00:01:55.000 Here's where you know that there's no such thing as white privilege.
00:02:00.000 If there is white privilege, then people who are half black and half white would only identify as white and not black.
00:02:06.000 The best tell ever is in college admissions.
00:02:08.000 If you have someone who's half black and half white, which box do you think they're going to check?
00:02:13.000 So Gavin Newsom makes this decision over the weekend.
00:02:16.000 The name that we all know, LaFonza Butler.
00:02:20.000 Not Oprah, not Megan Markle.
00:02:23.000 I know, I know.
00:02:23.000 Who the heck is LaFonza Butler?
00:02:26.000 I never heard of LaFonza Butler before.
00:02:28.000 So I have no idea if LaFonza Butler is a scholar, a smart person, but I'm always going to think like, I don't know if she's really qualified because she was selected merely for her characteristics that don't matter.
00:02:41.000 And I think that's honestly a disservice to LaFonza Butler.
00:02:45.000 I think it's a disservice to have someone selected.
00:02:48.000 I mean, she's always going to have to be like, hey, you know, you were selected because you basically checked off all of the woke boxes.
00:02:55.000 And so if you go to LaFonza, oh, she has another box, by the way, that she checked off.
00:02:59.000 I'll tell you.
00:02:59.000 LaFonza Butler, she's really big into pro-choice and reproductive freedom for all.
00:03:04.000 And so Gavin Newsom vowed to appoint her to this.
00:03:07.000 Now, the question is, will she then run for the Senate race or will that Senate primary continue?
00:03:14.000 That's an interesting question.
00:03:15.000 She supposedly will not, but you never know.
00:03:19.000 I mean, LaFonza Butler, she might start to woo people and say, wow, we want more LaFonza Butler.
00:03:25.000 We want more of that.
00:03:27.000 Now, LaFonza Butler is also another thing.
00:03:31.000 She's also lesbian.
00:03:33.000 So you have the black, you have female, you have lesbian.
00:03:36.000 I mean, she is the high priestess of the oppression Olympics.
00:03:39.000 Look at her.
00:03:40.000 She's soup.
00:03:41.000 I mean, you've never seen a person as oppressed as Lafonza Butler.
00:03:44.000 In fact, they needed to find a way to try to appoint a black female, happen to be lesbian, that they couldn't even find one in California.
00:03:54.000 She's registered to vote in Maryland.
00:03:56.000 Now, we don't know if she's a resident of California or not, but she lives in Maryland.
00:04:01.000 Her Twitter profile says Maryland, and she's registered to vote in Maryland.
00:04:04.000 Now, maybe she has some condominium in Santa Monica or something that we're unaware of.
00:04:08.000 Or Gavin Newsom just says, eh, I could disappoint anybody to be a U.S. Senator.
00:04:12.000 Forget the residency requirements.
00:04:14.000 Blake, is that right that you don't even have to live in the state to become a senator of the state?
00:04:19.000 I thought that would be kind of like a basic requirement.
00:04:22.000 Or you could just kind of appoint anybody to anything.
00:04:24.000 Oh, she just, she could just change her residency.
00:04:26.000 Ah, yeah, she could just magically, I'm now a farmer in Clovis, California, right?
00:04:31.000 So here is the scholar, LaFonza Butler, play cut 27.
00:04:38.000 Since the dawn of patriarchy, women have had their power stolen.
00:04:43.000 Time and again, we have been told what we can and cannot do, what choices we can and cannot make about our lives and our futures.
00:04:54.000 But time and again, we have come together across race and across place to respond to questions about our rights with clarity and resolve.
00:05:05.000 Our bodies belong to us.
00:05:07.000 Our freedoms are not up for debate.
00:05:10.000 So that is LaFonza Butler, everybody.
00:05:12.000 I just seeing a little glimpse of her, I don't think she's going to give up power willingly.
00:05:17.000 She might actually end up going into the Senate primary.
00:05:21.000 You're trying to tell me Lafonza Butler, who is like this abortion activist, she's also a regent on the University of California system, which is interesting.
00:05:31.000 How could you become a regent in California and not be a resident of California?
00:05:35.000 That's really strange.
00:05:37.000 She also ran Black PAC, the National Children's Defense Fund, board of the Bay Area Economic Council Institute.
00:05:46.000 She went to Jackson State University, which interestingly enough is an HBCU.
00:05:49.000 And Deion Sanders actually coached there before going to coach at University of Colorado.
00:05:55.000 She also was involved in the SCIU public policy campaigns and campaigns at Airbnb.
00:06:01.000 So she checks all the boxes, every box you can imagine.
00:06:04.000 But it gets even better.
00:06:06.000 So Gavin Newsom appoints her, and there'll be no consequences for appointing basically an out-of-stater.
00:06:13.000 And I can't help but enjoy one part of this, a little bit of delight in the suffering of my enemy.
00:06:20.000 The one person who is just wishing that he was a black woman right now is Adam Schiff.
00:06:28.000 No person has ever wished that he was not white and a male as much as Adam Schiff.
00:06:34.000 This guy is one of the most power-hungry, ambitious, just nasty human beings ever to exist in American politics.
00:06:43.000 Adam Schiff is an outright liar.
00:06:45.000 Never forget Adam Schiff, pencil head, pencil neck, goes on TV.
00:06:49.000 We have evidence.
00:06:50.000 Can you get that tape?
00:06:51.000 I don't want to misquote him.
00:06:52.000 I never want to misquote, but he said something of the essence that there will be evidence that is going to come out against, you know, whatever, against Donald Trump, that there's going to be evidence that's going to come out to prove that Donald Trump colluded with the Russian government.
00:07:06.000 So Adam Schiff is running in the California Democrat primary, and that is a nasty primary.
00:07:10.000 Let me tell you, you got Katie Porter.
00:07:13.000 How long until Katie Porter wears blackface?
00:07:16.000 I'm black too.
00:07:18.000 Oh, yeah.
00:07:18.000 Okay, there it is.
00:07:19.000 Adam Schiff, evidence in plain sight.
00:07:19.000 Thank you.
00:07:21.000 He is a liar.
00:07:22.000 But in some ways, you have to just kind of enjoy the Game of Thrones fight in California because all of these Adam Schiff, Katie Porter, deep down, I know they have resentment for affirmative action.
00:07:37.000 I know it.
00:07:39.000 If you got Adam Schiff under a lie detector test, if you had some sort of truth serum, you could give Adam Schiff, because he parrots all this stuff on affirmative action.
00:07:46.000 And you say, hey, do you really believe in affirmative action?
00:07:48.000 You say, rob me of my Senate seat.
00:07:50.000 So now, LaFonza Butler, an out-of-stater black female lesbian who has never held elected office except being on a regent board, is now a U.S. senator of the most populous state in the country.
00:08:03.000 And so, for that, I just think it's hilarious.
00:08:05.000 I think it's hilarious that the most loyal, the most obedient bag men of the Democrat Party that just carry the water of the entire regime, Schiff, Porter, that they get screwed by the very ideology that they try to push on the rest of the country.
00:08:29.000 I just find that hilarious.
00:08:31.000 For no other reason than Adam Schiff is the closest thing to a scum of a politician I think that we can find.
00:08:40.000 He should be expelled from the House.
00:08:42.000 He's lied under oath.
00:08:45.000 He was the chief pusher of the Russia hoax, of the whole Mueller thing.
00:08:50.000 That was all him.
00:08:52.000 And you could just probably imagine Adam Schiff, but I deserve that Senate seat.
00:08:56.000 Nope, sorry.
00:08:57.000 You don't have the right characteristics.
00:08:59.000 You are not a black female lesbian.
00:09:03.000 So LaFonza Butler is now the U.S., she's going to be sworn in as the U.S. Senator.
00:09:10.000 And by the way, it just shows how much contempt elite Democrats have for their state as well.
00:09:15.000 They know that they've conquered the state.
00:09:17.000 And I have said this before.
00:09:19.000 I was asked by a moderate Republican recently, but Charlie, what do the Democrats really want?
00:09:22.000 They want to create the whole country to be a one-party state the same way they have California.
00:09:28.000 Absolute power.
00:09:29.000 There are no competitive elections.
00:09:31.000 They get whatever they want done, however they want.
00:09:33.000 And I was just in California yesterday.
00:09:35.000 It is so sad, the homelessness, the vagrancy, the hopelessness, the looting, the crime.
00:09:42.000 They couldn't care less.
00:09:43.000 There's no check and balance.
00:09:44.000 They've removed elections as a means to check and balance the American Democrat Party.
00:09:50.000 Best of luck, Lafonza Butler.
00:09:52.000 I can always say, though, the American people always look at you as someone who got the job, not because of your brilliance, not because of your accomplishments, not because of the will of the voters, but because you checked the boxes.
00:10:02.000 That's exactly the way affirmative action is meant to be.

00:11:10.000 If any other country, let's just say a hypothetical, let's say Russia, let's say hypothetically in Russia, there was a very, very, very wealthy former president of Russia who did a lot of real estate development all over the country.
00:11:25.000 And a court in Russia decided to go after that person and just confiscate all the assets.
00:11:32.000 Imagine if Putin's regime claims that his number one opponent engaged in fraud, yet no actual victims have been named.
00:11:39.000 We would put sanctions on Russia for that kind of behavior.
00:11:44.000 If this happened in Namibia, in Tanzania, if this happened in Laos, the State Department would be issuing statements.
00:11:52.000 This is very wrong.
00:11:54.000 We are going to submit articles at the UN and we're going to use all diplomatic channels to try to prevent this from happening because democracy is too important.
00:12:04.000 Well, add this to the list.
00:12:07.000 And this is obviously so coordinated.
00:12:11.000 You have Jack Smith, you have Fannie Willis, and this Letitia James vector is increasing.
00:12:18.000 Marxism does not allow the ownership of private property.
00:12:22.000 And this is not an exaggeration.
00:12:24.000 If this judge gets his way in New York, if these standings hold for this civil fraud trial, which by the way, from what I understand, didn't even have a jury, was just a lawsuit that the New York Attorney General put forward.
00:12:35.000 They could literally confiscate Donald Trump's assets.
00:12:40.000 Trump Tower, which is one of the most remarkable real estate deals ever done in the history of urban development, period.
00:12:49.000 How he was able to buy the air rights.
00:12:51.000 He was the first one to be able to really start the standard of world-class architecture mixed with modern sort of aesthetic.
00:13:01.000 It was unbelievable he got done.
00:13:03.000 Buying the air rights over Tiffany's.
00:13:05.000 He wrote all about it in The Art of the Deal.
00:13:09.000 Not to mention all of his other New York assets.
00:13:11.000 Donald Trump, no exaggeration, employed tens of thousands of people, probably as much as hundreds of thousands of people, if you count the construction and the maintenance throughout the years, paying hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes, in sales tax, real estate tax, giving tens of millions of dollars away in charity, saving the Wollman rink, saving the convention center, turning around the Commodore Hotel, which then became the Grand Hyatt, which I think is becoming something else now.
00:13:41.000 Donald Trump was a big reason why New York became a world-class city.
00:13:46.000 He was one of the developers that increased the appeal of New York.
00:13:49.000 This is hard for some people to remember.
00:13:51.000 New York was a dangerous city in the late 80s, early 90s.
00:13:56.000 Donald Trump cleaned it up.
00:13:58.000 He had a vision for New York that was, we're going to clean up the streets.
00:14:02.000 We're going to make this the gold standard of America.
00:14:09.000 New York was a, put nicely, a crap hole in the 1980s.
00:14:13.000 Donald Trump saw potential.
00:14:15.000 And now where he made so much money for so many people, where he created actual wealth, he now has to be targeted by Letitia James.
00:14:27.000 Now, this is not a theme that we explore very often on this program.
00:14:31.000 We must be very careful on the right never to become envious of people's success that take their stuff away.
00:14:38.000 Donald Trump created real things and real hotels and real value and real apartments for people.
00:14:45.000 This was not some sort of fake app that you download with users and revenue multiples.
00:14:51.000 This was real wealth that Donald Trump created.
00:14:54.000 Blue-collar jobs.
00:14:56.000 Donald Trump owned the Plaza Hotel.
00:14:58.000 And they're trying to say that, well, this was all done fraudulently.
00:15:01.000 Who is the victim exactly in Donald Trump's civil fraud case?
00:15:05.000 Anybody?
00:15:06.000 There's no victim.
00:15:07.000 The banks didn't sue him.
00:15:08.000 The creditors didn't sue him.
00:15:10.000 The lenders didn't sue him.
00:15:12.000 The tenants didn't sue him.
00:15:14.000 The New York Attorney General sued him.
00:15:15.000 You want to talk about civil fraud?
00:15:17.000 How about somebody go sues the Clinton Foundation?
00:15:20.000 But now that would take a Republican AG with a spine.
00:15:23.000 We don't have such things.
00:15:25.000 Letitia James ran on a vow to destroy Trump.
00:15:29.000 And I don't care if you hate Donald Trump in this audience.
00:15:32.000 And I'm so sick of hearing that from people.
00:15:34.000 Oh, Charlie, I don't like his tone.
00:15:36.000 He's having his assets confiscated from him, if this judge's ruling stands.
00:15:41.000 His assets.
00:15:43.000 Because of a single judge and a Democrat AG who said, I'm going to go get Trump.
00:15:48.000 This is, this would make third world governments go into tumult.
00:15:54.000 We're just going to, this is what Saudi Arabia does.
00:15:56.000 Literally.
00:15:56.000 Mohammed bin Salman comes out.
00:15:58.000 He's like, yeah, I don't think my cousin should be able to own property.
00:16:00.000 I'm going to lock him up in a hotel.
00:16:02.000 Literally, you just did that like five years ago.
00:16:04.000 And I was like, okay, that's like the law of the land.
00:16:05.000 I guess Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
00:16:07.000 Whatever.
00:16:08.000 Just kind of like shrug our shoulders.
00:16:10.000 And then, of course, all the people in D.C., oh, Saudi Arabia is so authoritarian and autocratic.
00:16:15.000 Meanwhile, Trump has some errant judge say, yeah, actually, you're running a fraudulent business.
00:16:20.000 What is fraudulent about Trump Tower, the apartments, the condos, the golf courses?

00:16:31.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:17:35.000 Laura, thank you so much for taking the time.
00:17:37.000 Tell us about your new January 6th documentary.
00:17:39.000 So incredibly important.
00:17:40.000 Laura, the floor is yours.
00:17:41.000 Well, it's called the rest of the story with Laura Logan because what I find so frustrating as a journalist is that so many people tell the same story over and over and over again.
00:17:51.000 And incredibly, Charlie, as you know, nobody's telling these stories.
00:17:56.000 And so, you know, I just gravitated towards things that I really believe are important.
00:18:02.000 And mostly there is a false narrative out there about January 6th that is having a catastrophic impact on decent, good American citizens all over this country.
00:18:15.000 And we don't know their names.
00:18:17.000 We don't know anything about them.
00:18:18.000 They're just names on a page.
00:18:21.000 And so this series, really, it's done in the style of 60 minutes.
00:18:25.000 It's long form.
00:18:26.000 It's 20 minute episodes every week.
00:18:29.000 And what we're doing is really bringing people to life.
00:18:33.000 And their stories represent many others behind them.
00:18:38.000 So tell us in particular kind of the things that you've learned.
00:18:41.000 And what are the big lies regarding January 6th?
00:18:45.000 Well, the biggest lie of all is that everyone who went to the Capitol on January 6th was an insurrectionist or was violent or went to overthrow the government or went to do something nefarious.
00:18:56.000 You know, that's the first lie.
00:18:58.000 The other lie is that anyone involved with January 6th is getting a fair trial.
00:19:04.000 You know, there are no jury pools in Washington, D.C. that will ever deliver anything other than a guilty verdict.
00:19:13.000 I mean, the jury pool has been permanently tainted by this administration, by the media, by the Republicans, right?
00:19:19.000 The establishment Republicans who played along with this false narrative.
00:19:24.000 And, you know, at best, that's the limit of what they've done.
00:19:28.000 At worst, they were complicit from the very beginning.
00:19:31.000 And so, and then, you know, the other lie is, of course, that everyone who supported Trump, everyone who went to the Capitol went to do something nefarious.
00:19:40.000 We don't know anything about these people.
00:19:43.000 And we've been traveling all over the country.
00:19:45.000 And it's been breathtaking at times to discover ordinary people in tiny unknown places who have absolute clarity when it comes to the principles and no hesitation in standing up.
00:20:02.000 I mean, that kind of courage is in short supply on Capitol Hill.
00:20:07.000 And there's a lot to be learned from these people.
00:20:10.000 So how many federal agents do you think were present on January 6th, Laura?
00:20:15.000 What does your reporting suggest?
00:20:17.000 What would be a fair estimate?
00:20:20.000 Well, I think that's unknowable.
00:20:21.000 The truth is right now, that's unknowable for us because that information is being withheld.
00:20:27.000 So we know that, for example, the FBI was forced to acknowledge during the Proud Boys trial that some 30 or 40 agents were undercover on the ground.
00:20:38.000 We know from one of the FBI whistleblowers that there were a lot of FBI who were on the ground who were supporting Donald Trump, and they've been encouraged to lie about what they were there, why they were there.
00:20:49.000 We know from the FBI Inspector General's report that they lost control of how many agents were on the ground because there were so many.
00:20:56.000 But what we also know is that it wasn't just the FBI that had undercover agents.
00:21:01.000 There were people there from the Department of Homeland Security.
00:21:04.000 There were people there from the Joint Terrorism Task Force.
00:21:08.000 There were agents there from the Metropolitan Police Department.
00:21:11.000 There were agents there from the MPD Special Narcotics Unit.
00:21:14.000 What we don't know, Charlie, is what these undercover agents were doing because they want to have it both ways, right?
00:21:22.000 They want to say there was no reason for us to secure the Capitol with National Guard troops, but there was enough intelligence suggesting that there was this great existential threat to the United States posed by Trump supporters, so much so that we had to have, you know, untold numbers of undercover agents on the ground.
00:21:42.000 And that's before we even start talking about their confidential human sources or informants, right?
00:21:50.000 Because there are indications that the number of informants dwarfed the number of undercover agents.
00:21:57.000 We do know from videos that we actually included one of those in one of our first episodes.
00:22:02.000 We have an officer telling a Metropolitan Police Department officer telling a Capitol police officer, we go undercover as Antifa in the crowd, right?
00:22:12.000 So, I mean, there's more than enough evidence that they had people on the ground.
00:22:17.000 And we know from looking at some of the cases, the role that these undercovers and informants played in guiding law enforcement to people who were on the ground.
00:22:27.000 But what we really have not addressed, and this is a critical point, judges have refused to allow a defense of entrapment or the lesser charge, right?
00:22:39.000 Because there's a lesser form of entrapment.
00:22:41.000 So even though we know that there was, for example, Metropolitan Police Department officers encouraging people to climb the scaffolding, encouraging people to go forward, encouraging people to go into the Capitol, the judges have never ever allowed any defense attorneys to even approach the issue of entrapment or the lesser charge in the courts, which is really quite extraordinary when you look at the events of January 6th.
00:23:07.000 And that is definitely one of the things that we're talking about in this series.
00:23:11.000 So Laura, the other part that I know that you're going to probably ask questions that just keeps on getting forgotten, who planted the pipe bombs?
00:23:18.000 We must remember the sequence of events on the day of January 6th that Donald Trump gives a speech.
00:23:24.000 There were already people at the Capitol as Trump was speaking.
00:23:27.000 And the New York Times actually was the first publication to say this, where there were some of the quote-unquote proud boys that were already at the other side of the capital.
00:23:35.000 They never went to the speech.
00:23:36.000 They had no intention to go to the speech.
00:23:38.000 They were at the Capitol doing whatever they were doing.
00:23:40.000 And so the idea that Trump instigated it doesn't make sense because they were literally, you know, three quarters of a mile away already at the Capitol.
00:23:46.000 But then as we were covering this live on our broadcast, the confusing part, Laura, is all of a sudden at both the RNC and the DNC, there was an alleged bomb threat.
00:23:57.000 So who planted those and were they actually bombs or were they things that look like bombs?
00:24:02.000 Well, it's a very, very good question.
00:24:05.000 And first, I want to set the scene, Charlie.
00:24:08.000 The Capitol building is a counterterrorism zone.
00:24:11.000 Right after 9-11, the United States government wanted to know what will Al-Qaeda's next move be, right?
00:24:19.000 And so they tasked intelligence agents to identify a potential strategy.
00:24:26.000 It was called, the result of that investigation was called Death by a Thousand Cuts.
00:24:31.000 And one of the things our intelligence service did at the time was to identify potential targets and deem them counterterrorism zones.
00:24:39.000 Why is that significant?
00:24:41.000 Because it means that every single inch of the Capitol building and the Capitol grounds is under surveillance, right?
00:24:50.000 It means, in fact, that the White House, all of these key areas that are counterterrorism zones, they have underground command centers that are staffed 24-7.
00:25:01.000 They communicate with each other.
00:25:03.000 There are tunnels connecting them.
00:25:05.000 It is absolutely, I'm saying this to you because it is 100% impossible in the city of Washington, D.C. around counterterrorism zones for the Capitol Police or the Metropolitan Police Department or anybody else with access to these surveillance systems not to know who planted those so-called bombs.
00:25:28.000 And I say so-called because I would point your audience to a fascinating and ridiculous article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
00:25:36.000 By the way, a publication I wrote for as a young journalist that I absolutely loved.
00:25:40.000 And when I read this article, I didn't know whether, well, you know, one part of me wanted to weep and the other part of me just roared with laughter because the fictitious story of the woman who supposedly worked for the Treasury Department, who was in her building in Washington, D.C. that Saturday and had to go around the block to do her laundry, right?
00:26:01.000 And she supposedly walks down this alleyway that's connected to the RNC and she happens to notice this pipe bomb just lying in the road.
00:26:10.000 So you have, let me see, you have someone who is able, they're able to subvert the entire power of law enforcement, right?
00:26:18.000 And counterterrorism agents and all the rest of it.
00:26:21.000 And yet they just leave a pipe bomb lying in the streets.
00:26:24.000 And when you read this article, Charlie, I think you will find it, you know, you will see all the things I'm talking about.
00:26:29.000 This woman happened to come from, you know, somewhere in the Midwest where she had no real connections, but she goes and she studies in China.
00:26:38.000 And while she's studying in China, she has a job and then she goes to work in London and she works, you know, for one of these big think tanks in London.
00:26:46.000 Someone needs to look, what was her, what was her dissertation on her master thesis on Laura?
00:26:50.000 Wasn't her master thesis on something of, I don't know, how to create a civil war?
00:26:55.000 Yeah, something like that.
00:26:56.000 And she just happens to be reminded looking at this pipe bomb.
00:27:00.000 She thinks that maybe somewhere in her counterterrorism days at the think tank in London, she vaguely remembers what a pipe bomb looked like.
00:27:08.000 I mean, I'm sorry, but I have never read such a load of absolute hogwash.
00:27:14.000 And what my experience tells me, and I haven't verified this, I have not vetted it, but what I will tell you, every instinct in my body is screaming agency, agency, agency, cover-up.
00:27:25.000 You know, BS, that story is absolute BS.
00:27:31.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
00:27:33.000 When the government used emergency edicts during COVID to restrict the gathering and worship of churches, three pastors facing the risk of imprisonment, unlimited fines, and their own churches being ripped apart took a courageous stand and reopened their doors in the face of a world that chose to comply.

00:28:34.000 Laura, tell us the truth of what's happening on the southern border.
00:28:37.000 Children are being sex trafficked.
00:28:39.000 Is that true?
00:28:40.000 Oh, yes, absolutely.
00:28:41.000 That's 100% true.
00:28:43.000 In fact, more people are being sex trafficked across the southern border today than at any time than ever in the history of this country.
00:28:52.000 And not only that, but the people who are trafficking them are the most violent and powerful criminal cartels in the world.
00:29:00.000 And it is inconceivable that they could be operating with such impunity without some kind of knowledge and therefore implied assistance from this administration.
00:29:15.000 Because the reality is, if the administration wanted to shut down the border, they could do it tomorrow.
00:29:22.000 They absolutely could.
00:29:23.000 They could declare the cartels terrorist organizations and they could use the full power and weight of the federal government and they could stop it.
00:29:31.000 But they choose not to do that.
00:29:33.000 In fact, they've done the opposite.
00:29:34.000 And it's infuriating when you see people arguing that this isn't an open border because it's an absolute lie.
00:29:41.000 You mentioned the Biden administration getting rid of DNA testing.
00:29:44.000 Well, if you want to welcome people into your country, but you want to do it with at least some safeguards for people and for children who are being trafficked, then why would you not make any efforts to confirm people's identities, to make sure that they are really families, that a child is even related to the people?
00:30:04.000 And why would you not be concerned about these tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors who are supposed to be coming here to be reunited with parents who've been living and working in the United States and separated from their loved ones, right?
00:30:19.000 And yet they can't find their loved ones.
00:30:23.000 I mean, where's the reunification of families happening?
00:30:28.000 It's not.
00:30:28.000 The Biden administration has admitted that some 85,000 children that it processed just disappeared.
00:30:35.000 And that's months old, that information, right?
00:30:37.000 So how many since then?
00:30:39.000 You know, I know the whistleblower, Tara Rotas, and she is quite exceptional because she is one of the few whistleblowers that still has her job with the federal government because she works for the Inspector General's office.
00:30:52.000 And let me tell you, when you talk to Tara Rotas, I mean, everything you know about the border, Charlie, is nothing compared to what that woman witnessed.
00:31:02.000 And she was not a conservative.
00:31:04.000 She wasn't a Trump supporter.
00:31:06.000 She volunteered to work for the Biden administration because those were her political leanings.
00:31:10.000 And she says that one after another after another, these caseworkers that she dealt with were coming forward and they were coming apart.
00:31:19.000 I mean, when you're a caseworker and you've got a 12-year-old boy who's wearing diapers because he was raped so many times on the journey to the United States and there's no safeguards for him, they're not even acknowledging that people like this exist.
00:31:38.000 I mean, people who work for this administration are coming apart, but they're afraid to come forward.
00:31:44.000 There are a few.
00:31:45.000 It's coming.
00:31:47.000 But, you know, the cost of standing up is so high that these people just keep quiet.
00:31:53.000 It is unbelievable, Laura.
00:31:55.000 In closing, what is your reaction to Republicans not doing what's necessary to close the border?
00:32:00.000 They're disgusting.
00:32:01.000 It's absolutely inexcusable.
00:32:03.000 I mean, they can say whatever they like.
00:32:05.000 They can come up with whatever excuse they want.
00:32:07.000 There are women that the Texas Rangers and U.S. Marshals have rescued who are eight months pregnant, being taken to a little office behind a gas station in Texas to be raped every single day to pay off their debt to the cartels.
00:32:24.000 They know exactly what is happening.
00:32:26.000 What we know is a fraction of the reality, but they have access to the full reality and they have done next to nothing.
00:32:34.000 They should be ashamed of themselves.
00:32:37.000 Laura Logan, the rest of the story.
