The Charlie Kirk Show - Beware of The Global Woke Empire

00:00:00.000 Hey, everybody, what is the global woke empire?

00:00:03.000 Where is it from?

00:00:04.000 Where does it go?

00:00:04.000 And how does it involve Russia and Ukraine?

00:00:07.000 We go through a history of what happens when America tries to remove dictators.

00:00:11.000 Tempting at times.

00:00:12.000 I totally can sympathize with this idea that certain people shouldn't be there.

00:00:17.000 They're evil.

00:00:18.000 But then what do we do about it?

00:00:19.000 That's the prudent question.

00:00:21.000 So we explore that and so much more.

00:00:50.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:53.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:57.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:58.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:59.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:01:01.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:01:06.000 Turning point USA.

00:01:07.000 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.

00:01:16.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:28.000 So the Ukrainian-Russian situation is ongoing.

00:01:30.000 It's very murky.

00:01:32.000 It's increasingly cloudy as far as the situation on the ground.

00:01:39.000 Late last night, there was a story that came out that alleged that Russia attacked a nuclear power plant in Ukraine, the largest in Europe, is the way the media covered it.

00:01:51.000 Ukraine nuclear authority accused Russia of shelling the Ukrainian power plant, saying that a fire broke out at Zapazorazaya nuclear power plant, ZNPP, but the Ukrainian state emergency service units put the fire out at 6:20 p.m.

00:02:11.000 The state regulatory inspectorate reported: quote: ZNPP power units remain intact.

00:02:17.000 Unit one reactor compartment auxiliary buildings have been damaged, which does not affect the safety of the unit.

00:02:23.000 So immediately, Ukraine comes out and they say, Hey, this is an attack from the Russian government.

00:02:28.000 It's an attack on all of Europe.

00:02:30.000 We need to respond in kind.

00:02:31.000 But it just happened to not be true.

00:02:35.000 Yes, there was an electrical fire.

00:02:37.000 There was something that triggered it, but it was not an intentional shelling of a nuclear power plant.

00:02:43.000 Here's how I know why.

00:02:46.000 Immediately, my friend in Chicago and I were texting back and forth, and he made a very astute point.

00:02:52.000 He said, Wait a second, why would Russia bomb a nuclear power plant if the, let's say, radioactive exhaust could blow east into Russia?

00:03:05.000 Why would they do such a thing as that?

00:03:07.000 Why would they bomb a nuclear power plant that could actually harm the people of Russia if the winds were to carry the radioactive overflow or exhaust, whatever you want to call it?

00:03:17.000 They wouldn't.

00:03:18.000 It wouldn't make any sense.

00:03:19.000 It would be completely and totally irrational.

00:03:21.000 But this is a theme and this is a pattern that I want us to take a step back.

00:03:25.000 And it very well might be the Ukrainians are on the right side of this.

00:03:28.000 In fact, I think Putin is definitely on the wrong side of this.

00:03:30.000 Invading a sovereign country is disgusting.

00:03:34.000 It's reprehensible.

00:03:34.000 It's evil.

00:03:35.000 I think Putin needs to be held accountable for that.

00:03:38.000 But we also need to kind of take pause and say, wait a second.

00:03:42.000 How many lies from the Ukrainian government are we going to put up with?

00:03:47.000 How many times are they going to say something happened that actually didn't happen?

00:03:51.000 went through the Snake Island situation where allegedly 13 Ukrainian Marines and border patrol, I should say, told the Russian military, go F yourself, and they were bombed as their last words.

00:04:03.000 It just so happens they actually didn't die.

00:04:05.000 Or how about the ghost of Kiev?

00:04:09.000 The ghost of Kiev allegedly was a fighter pilot that shot down multiple Russian fighters.

00:04:15.000 Not true.

00:04:16.000 Doesn't exist.

00:04:19.000 The Russian shelling might have caused the fire, but some reports are saying that the Ukrainians fired first.

00:04:27.000 They treated an inactive, debunked nuclear plant in Chernobyl with kid gloves.

00:04:33.000 Why would they be so reckless with a live reactor?

00:04:36.000 The answer is they wouldn't be.

00:04:38.000 It's probably a lot more nuanced than that.

00:04:41.000 Now, we must remind ourselves that Ukraine, the Ukrainian government, not the Ukrainian people, and I totally stand with the people of Ukraine that love freedom and have been abused by these awful, thuggish leaders like Zelensky and others.

00:04:53.000 I'm not a fan of Zelensky.

00:04:55.000 I'm just not.

00:04:55.000 The more you read about him, the more you realize there's something wrong with that guy.

00:05:00.000 There's something that does not add up.

00:05:01.000 And he is a professional actor.

00:05:02.000 The people of Ukraine, they deserve so much better than that.

00:05:07.000 But Ukraine is a vassal state or a proxy state of the ever expanding global woke empire, trying to institute socially liberal, radical Western values in more and more countries.

00:05:25.000 We went through some of the beliefs of the Ukrainian government under Zelensky.

00:05:29.000 Free abortion, marijuana everywhere, all these different sorts of things.

00:05:34.000 They want to institute them into Ukraine.

00:05:37.000 The tension right now is between Ukraine's alleged government stood up by the global woke empire and Putin's aggression.

00:05:46.000 And let me be very clear.

00:05:47.000 The global woke empire, we're going to coin that term, by the way, the GWE, because there's a World Economic Forum.

00:05:56.000 I like the GWE, the Global Woke Empire, where they want to almost evangelistically bring the transgender ideas, all this nonsense into new places, is up against another source of part of evil, Putin's alleged Russian empire.

00:06:16.000 Now, Ukraine's secret weapon, Ukraine's Trump card, is not a nuclear reactor.

00:06:23.000 Ukraine's way that they think they can win this conflict is not better air power.

00:06:30.000 Ukraine has a secret weapon, and it's this.

00:06:34.000 The Ukrainian government, not the people of Ukraine, they believe they can propagandize the West to fight on their behalf.

00:06:44.000 They believe they can create narratives, tell stories.

00:06:47.000 Zelensky is doing his best Quentin Tarantino routine.

00:06:51.000 Zelensky is trying his best to create a film.

00:06:56.000 Might be out of order like pulp fiction.

00:06:58.000 It might be really bloody like reservoir dogs.

00:07:00.000 Might have a lot of swear words like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

00:07:04.000 But the point is that it's going to tell a story.

00:07:08.000 And the story that Zelensky wants to tell, and you can't totally blame him for this, by the way, his country is under attack, but we must know what we're consuming.

00:07:15.000 That's the point.

00:07:16.000 I'm actually not criticizing a country for wanting to make it seem like things are going better than they are.

00:07:22.000 As the famous quote says, the first casualty in war is truth.

00:07:26.000 Is that in a kind of perverse way, Ukraine is incentivized to escalate this conflict?

00:07:36.000 Ukraine and the government of Ukraine is actually incentivized to make this seem worse than it actually is.

00:07:44.000 The government of Ukraine right now is in a position to try and drum up support for intervention.

00:07:54.000 Now, the people of Ukraine are fighting hard.

00:07:57.000 I think it's heroic and it's admirable.

00:07:59.000 In fact, I think there is a through line between the grassroots bubbling up of energy that we see of moms and dads showing up to school board meetings in America and the people of Ukraine that are going to fight for what they believe is right and true.

00:08:13.000 And by the way, the people of Ukraine fighting, they're not fighting for Zelensky.

00:08:18.000 Many of them are fighting against the ancestral hatred of Russians that killed their family members.

00:08:25.000 So this is a provocative question, but I want you to think about it.

00:08:29.000 Who is more incentivized to start World War III, or at least a more, let's say, comprehensive, wider engagement?

00:08:38.000 Ukraine or Russia?

00:08:42.000 I'm not saying that Russia wants peace.

00:08:44.000 Russia does not want peace.

00:08:45.000 You don't invade a country wanting peace.

00:08:47.000 That's ridiculous.

00:08:48.000 But which country is more likely to want to get the West involved?

00:08:53.000 Which country is more likely to try to send or try to compel America to send people from South Carolina, Ohio, and Arizona to go fight 5,000 miles away?

00:09:04.000 Well, of course, it's Ukraine.

00:09:07.000 They're the smaller country, and they've also been funded primarily from the global woke regime or the global woke empire for years.

00:09:18.000 The Ukrainian government wants to increase the tension.

00:09:27.000 They want to increase Western support.

00:09:31.000 That's their incentive structure.

00:09:34.000 And with that being said, there's story after story that is untrue.

00:09:39.000 And again, you can't blame them for this, but here's the thing: the West can't fall for outright war propaganda.

00:09:48.000 That's the point.

00:09:49.000 Is that we must look at the story and say, oh, there was no ghost to Kyiv, that Snake Island was not true, that Miss Ukraine, the supermodel, actually isn't going to go fight in the front lines, that that's an airsoft gun, no different than kind of war propaganda that would be shot for Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games.

00:10:11.000 With all the noise surrounding the topics of money and the economy, today, more than ever before, you need a financial guide that you can trust.

00:10:19.000 That's why I trust PAX Financial Group.

00:10:22.000 Not only do they share my conservative values, they are committed to putting your interests ahead of their own.

00:10:27.000 Big Wall Street firms are forcing their political agendas into your investments, and it's time to stop giving your money to companies that don't share your values or use their profits, my profits, as a way to silence Christians.

00:10:41.000 PAX is proud to offer an alternative called BRIs, biblical responsible investing.

00:10:48.000 Look, I got to know the people behind PAX Financial at a pro-life dinner in San Antonio.

00:10:54.000 I got to know them and they told me about biblical responsible investing.

00:10:57.000 And at first, I wasn't really sure what to make of it.

00:10:59.000 But as I got to know the team behind PAX Financial, we agreed to partner with them here on the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:11:05.000 Biblical responsible investing supports and promotes our values of being pro-family and pro-life and screens out companies that support pornography or anti-Christian or anti-conservative.

00:11:34.000 They'll be able to schedule a 15-minute free, no-obligation consultation.

00:11:38.000 I'm moving some of my money over to PAX Financial.

00:11:41.000 And honestly, I hope they do well with it with some of the returns.

00:11:44.000 But I'm happy that part of my portfolio will be able to go towards biblical responsible investing.

00:11:51.000 I think they're going to crush it for me in the market, but I'll be able to know that my hard-earned dollars are not going towards pornography, anti-Christian, pro-BLM nonsense.

00:12:01.000 You'll be connected with a financial advisor who will walk this through with you.

00:12:04.000 Text Charlie at number 74868 today.

00:12:07.000 Invest in companies that don't hate you.

00:12:09.000 Invest in companies that I believe are actually consistent with biblical truths.

00:12:14.000 Go to biblical responsible investing.

00:12:16.000 If that interests you, text right now to 74868.

00:12:20.000 Just Charlie in the body there.

00:12:21.000 Check it out right now.

00:12:22.000 Brought to you by PAX Financial Group PAX.

00:12:28.000 The situation in Russia and Ukraine is bad.

00:12:30.000 What should the response be?

00:12:32.000 That's debated by a lot of different people.

00:12:34.000 Some people say providing arms.

00:12:36.000 Some people say providing resources.

00:12:38.000 And it's hard to disagree with the sentiment that we should stand with the Ukrainian people.

00:12:42.000 But I am trying to draw a distinction between the wonderful people of Ukraine and their corrupt, rotten, good-for-nothing government of a George Soros puppet installed World Economic Forum trained Trudew best friend, comedian Zelensky, not a fan of his.

00:12:56.000 I haven't been for quite some time.

00:12:58.000 He's an actor.

00:12:59.000 He knows what he's doing.

00:13:00.000 However, a response that is now being, let's say, trial ballooned or floated out by none other than Lindsey Graham is that, hey, look, let's just assassinate Putin, okay?

00:13:11.000 Let's just cut out all this nonsense and let's just bring in the snipers, activate the CIA agents, and take out Vladimir Putin.

00:13:23.000 There's two cuts of this.

00:13:24.000 Play cut 107.

00:13:26.000 Somebody in Russia has to step up to the plate.

00:13:29.000 Is there Brutus in Russia?

00:13:31.000 Is there a more successful Colonel Stoppenberg in the Russian military?

00:13:35.000 The only way this ends, my friend, is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out.

00:13:40.000 You would be doing your country a great service and the world a great service.

00:13:45.000 Okay, well, first of all, just everyone gets the reference.

00:13:48.000 Of course, that's from Julius Caesar, written by Shakespeare, but the story is absolutely and totally historically correct.

00:13:55.000 One of the great pieces in English canon ever written by Julius Caesar.

00:14:00.000 Beware the Ides of March.

00:14:02.000 And we are 11 days from the Ides of March, which is March 15th.

00:14:05.000 That's the first line of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare.

00:14:09.000 If your high school or college kid has not studied Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, you're missing out.

00:14:15.000 It's historically really accurate.

00:14:17.000 The dialogues are incredible.

00:14:18.000 And of course, the most famous line is, of course, when Julius Caesar himself, the first Roman emperor who oversaw the transition from the Roman Republic to the empire, turns up his head while he's been stabbed and looks Brutus, his very good friend, in the eyes and says, A2, Brute.

00:14:37.000 One of the most famous lines ever written.

00:14:40.000 The five parts, of course, are exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and denounmentment or denouncement.

00:14:48.000 Okay, so those are based off Aristotle's poetics.

00:14:52.000 Okay, but Lindsey Graham continues his call, just so you guys all get the Brutus reference, because remember, there was a conspiracy that was launched against Julius Caesar amongst the Roman Senate, SPQR, the Senate, the people of the Republic of Rome.

00:15:06.000 Okay, cut 104.

00:15:08.000 The way this will end is when he gets charged with a war crime, Putin and his cronies, and one day we nab him when he leaves Russia.

00:15:16.000 But the best way for this to end is have an Elliot-Ness, a wide Earth in Russia, the Russian Springs, so to speak, where people rise up and take him down.

00:15:25.000 Because if he continues to be their leader, then he's going to make you complicit with war crimes.

00:15:31.000 You're a good people.

00:15:32.000 You'll never have a future.

00:15:34.000 You'll be isolated from the world and you'll live in abject poverty.

00:15:38.000 So I'm hoping somebody in Russia will understand that he's destroying Russia and you need to take this guy out by any means possible.

00:15:47.000 Okay, so let's just all understand what that means for a sitting member of the United States government to be calling for an assassination of another leader.

00:15:58.000 That could be interpreted as a threat of an act of war, just so that we're all clear.

00:16:04.000 You know, we are all trying to say that we need to have calm, measured diplomacy.

00:16:08.000 Let's not get into World War III.

00:16:10.000 We want to have our children and our grandchildren live in a hopefully a Western society we recognize, not one that has been completely completely obliterated by a nuclear holocaust.

00:16:21.000 And then meanwhile, Lindsey Graham goes on television and just says, hey, I know what we got to do.

00:16:25.000 We got to go assassinate that Vladimir Putin guy.

00:16:28.000 We just got to activate all those CI agents, those Spetsnas, those KGB guys.

00:16:33.000 Oh, those guys that they say that you just got to go be Brutus, Water, go be a hero.

00:16:41.000 Goodness gracious.

00:16:42.000 It does not take very much wisdom to look at what Lindsey Graham is saying and say, that is probably imprudent.

00:16:54.000 That's probably going to escalate it further.

00:16:56.000 So let's play this out.

00:16:57.000 So Putin, quote unquote, wins elections with 80% of the vote in Russia.

00:17:01.000 Okay, it's probably manipulated.

00:17:02.000 Let's pretend that 60% of the country likes him.

00:17:05.000 Okay.

00:17:05.000 And by the way, if you know anyone that has spent time in Russia, he is loved in a lot parts of Russia.

00:17:10.000 They love Putin.

00:17:11.000 So you're going to assassinate the leader of Putin after the United States government calls for it.

00:17:15.000 And what do you think their response will be?

00:17:18.000 We're going to kind of go back in the Wayback Machine, leader of Russia.

00:17:22.000 When we go back in the Wayback Machine, how is it that when leaders are assassinated, how does that usually work?

00:17:28.000 Yeah, usually more chaos ensues.

00:17:34.000 So how's your new year going so far?

00:17:36.000 Pretty good, I hope.

00:17:37.000 But it's been tough, hasn't it?

00:17:39.000 Lots of us have begun to wake up and smell the roses.

00:17:43.000 And some of us have smelt coffee instead.

00:17:46.000 All of us are now realizing how quick time is rushing past.

00:17:50.000 You're that much closer to retirement and that much closer to not earning.

00:17:54.000 But in the meantime, you've got some catching up to do.

00:17:56.000 With crypto and markets very risky right now and inflation running anywhere between 8 to 20%, and conservatively, it's 8%.

00:18:04.000 Where are you going to keep your money to keep up and beat it?

00:18:07.000 You might want to talk to an expert at Noble Gold and run through the options for keeping your money safe.

00:18:12.000 No pressure, no hassle, and no call centers.

00:18:16.000 This month, Noble Gold is giving away a free one-tenth of an ounce solid gold American Eagle coin with any qualifying plan that you start.

00:18:24.000 So just speak to someone who knows what they're talking about for once.

00:18:27.000 How good would that feel?

00:18:28.000 Call us at 877-646-5347 or visit our website at noblegoldinvestments.com.

00:18:34.000 That's noblegoldinvestments.com.

00:18:39.000 Okay, we're going through this idea of regime change.

00:18:41.000 So Lindsey Graham has called for the outright assassination of Vladimir Putin.

00:18:45.000 It's not like he did it in code words.

00:18:46.000 He said it explicitly.

00:18:48.000 He said, rise up, take him out.

00:18:49.000 So how has that worked in the past?

00:18:52.000 Well, let's look at Iran.

00:18:54.000 Iran, the people of Persia, are actually, the people of Persia are actually wonderful people.

00:18:59.000 The Iranian government is horrendous, one of the most despotic evil governments on the planet.

00:19:07.000 Now, in the 1950s, there was a political movement in Iran to institute a different form of government.

00:19:16.000 Iran was previously under Shah rule.

00:19:21.000 It was under rule of, you could say, an ancestral blood dictatorship.

00:19:26.000 But the people of Iran democratically wanted to elect somebody new as prime minister.

00:19:32.000 Now, there was a prime minister type of, let's say, system, but they wanted to put someone in to nationalize the oil.

00:19:42.000 It was all about oil.

00:19:43.000 And so, of course, Mohammad Masagdeh was put into office by the people, and he served two years from 1951 until 1953.

00:19:51.000 What has now been verified and corroborated in CIA documents and MI6 documents, and led, by the way, by Kermit Roosevelt Jr., a coup d'état, as blunt and as, let's say, unquestionable as one can find, Masagde was displaced and the Shah was reinstituted back into power.

00:20:14.000 It was the 1953 Iranian coup d'état.

00:20:18.000 It was in favor of strengthening the monarchy, the rule of the Shah, Mohammad Reza Pavli, on the 19th of August of 1953.

00:20:27.000 So everything seemed just fine.

00:20:28.000 And by the way, this is because Masagdeh wanted to audit the documents of the Anglo-Iranian oil company.

00:20:35.000 You see, as the West started to have a bigger and bigger and broader and broader appetite for oil, Iran, the people of Iran, like, wait a second, why are we giving all of this money to the West?

00:20:45.000 Why don't we nationalize it?

00:20:46.000 Now, we're, of course, not in favor of nationalizing oil, but if the people of Iran wanted to do it, then that's not really our business in the West.

00:20:52.000 Instead, the people running MI6 and people running the CIA saw that as a big problem.

00:21:00.000 So then the Shah came back into rule for the next 26 years.

00:21:06.000 Now, this is what's so important when you talk about dictator displacement.

00:21:09.000 This is what's so important when you talk about that term regime change.

00:21:13.000 Lindsey Graham throws it around on television like it's no big deal.

00:21:16.000 Because sometimes you can see the results of your regime change immediately, like with Muammar Gaddafi from Libya.

00:21:23.000 Sometimes you could just see him immediately.

00:21:25.000 Wow, Libya goes to a civil war because of it.

00:21:27.000 Not good.

00:21:28.000 Other times, it doesn't bubble up for the next couple decades, and you might actually have created something far, far worse.

00:21:37.000 So after we took out the democratically elected, supported by the people, Mossagde, what happened?

00:21:46.000 Well, people started to turn really radical.

00:21:49.000 So then, in the 1970s, all of a sudden, there was a legitimate revolution.

00:21:59.000 In 1978, January of 1978, the Iranian Revolution, otherwise known as the Islamic Revolution.

00:22:07.000 It was a series of events that helped overthrow the Shah of Iran.

00:22:13.000 And it turned Iran from a secular, Persian, non-religious government into one of the most totalitarian Islamic regimes on the planet.

00:22:25.000 Now, why did this happen?

00:22:28.000 Well, it happened because of pent-up frustration from the West involving themselves into the illegitimacy of the Shah of Iran.

00:22:35.000 It also did not help that the Shah was very sick.

00:22:38.000 He was feeble.

00:22:40.000 He was not himself.

00:22:41.000 He kept on visiting the West for medical treatment.

00:22:44.000 And it paved the way for a new theocratic government to take place.

00:22:49.000 It does beg the question that if we would not have involved ourselves in the displacement of the democratically elected Iranian ruler in the early 1950s, took him out through a coup and put the Shah back in, would the Islamic revolution have happened in the 1970s?

00:23:06.000 Probably not.

00:23:08.000 And so now we live under the consequences of Iran getting closer to a nuclear weapon, Iran wanting to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, Iran supplying China with energy, and Iran funding terrorists that kill Americans.

00:23:24.000 So we replaced a bad guy with a evil guy that we could control, and the Shah wasn't evil.

00:23:31.000 He was just an idiot.

00:23:33.000 And then all of a sudden, the Iranian revolution happens, and you have an even bigger problem.

00:23:40.000 But it's not isolated to that.

00:23:41.000 How about in Libya?

00:23:43.000 In Libya, Hillary Clinton running the State Department with Barack Obama as president, we decided it was a good idea to go in and try to assassinate Gaddafi, which actually turned Libya into a bloody civil war conflict.

00:23:57.000 How about in Syria?

00:23:59.000 I remember the Arab Spring, which was largely a foreign intelligence operation to try to have dictator displacement.

00:24:04.000 It was like democracy is coming to the Middle East.

00:24:06.000 No, it wasn't, actually.

00:24:08.000 Not at all.

00:24:09.000 In Egypt, it went from Mubarak to, I think, Corsi pretty quickly.

00:24:15.000 The Brotherhood really never lost some of their power.

00:24:18.000 Algeria never really turned over hands.

00:24:21.000 This kind of Arab Spring really didn't turn into much of anything, by the way.

00:24:25.000 It wasn't anything consequential or wasn't anything significant.

00:24:30.000 And in fact, the Arab Spring reached Syria.

00:24:34.000 Once it reached Syria, what happened?

00:24:35.000 The Syrian civil war broke out and sides had to be chosen.

00:24:40.000 So thankfully, we rejected the repeated calls by John McCain and Lindsey Graham: we got to arm the Syrian rebels.

00:24:48.000 We got to arm the Syrian rebels.

00:24:49.000 It's a proxy war against Russia.

00:24:51.000 My goodness, I'm glad that we didn't get involved in that one, but we sort of did.

00:24:54.000 We did a little bit here and there.

00:24:56.000 But what happened then?

00:24:57.000 Well, what happened when we got rid of Saddam Hussein, another regime change dictator displacement issue?

00:25:03.000 What could possibly go wrong?

00:25:05.000 Well, despite a trillion dollars and 6,000 Americans either dying or having permanent injuries, or tens of thousands of Americans committing suicide afterwards, or hundreds of thousands of Americans having PTSD, well, what happened after that?

00:25:19.000 ISIS was created.

00:25:22.000 So when you take out dictators, Mr. Graham, sometimes something even worse happens.

00:25:27.000 In fact, most times, something even worse happens.

00:25:32.000 Now, why would that be?

00:25:34.000 Because power needs to be distributed in a way, hopefully from the bottom up, from the people up.

00:25:42.000 But when you immediately destroy a power vacuum, then there's usually chaos that follows.

00:25:50.000 An assassination of a leader could lead to World War I, which is what we saw with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand when he was in Sarajevo, now known as Bosnia.

00:26:00.000 Now, I want to go to this tape here of John McCain while he was alive and Lindsey Graham basically preparing via a translator for a proxy war with Russia all the way back then.

00:26:15.000 And you see the then prime minister of Ukraine kind of chuckling and laughing because here's what you must understand.

00:26:21.000 The government of Ukraine loved these deals with the West because they like plopped off 40% of all the money, all the goods, all the stuff that came in, kept it for themselves.

00:26:32.000 This has been, if you know anyone that has ever dealt in the foreign aid business in Africa, it is an enrichment scheme for despots and dictators and people that otherwise would never have been able to become wealthy.

00:26:47.000 There's a lot of Range Rovers in Ukraine.

00:26:51.000 Wonder why.

00:26:51.000 Play Cut 103.

00:26:53.000 Your fight is our fight.

00:26:57.000 2017 will be the year of offense.

00:27:03.000 All of us will go back to Washington and we will push the case against Russia.

00:27:09.000 Okay, so I wish we had the full tape.

00:27:11.000 It gets even worse.

00:27:12.000 So he's talking to this entire room of Ukrainian troops back in 2016, saying, this is the year of offense.

00:27:19.000 Your fight is our fight.

00:27:20.000 And by the way, you know who else was there?

00:27:22.000 The snow woman.

00:27:22.000 Amy Klobuchar was there.

00:27:24.000 It was the snow woman, John McCain, and Lindsey Graham.

00:27:28.000 And so Putin listens to this while Lindsey Graham is, we're going to play offense.

00:27:34.000 We're going to get you all these beautiful little super suits and you've got to come in.

00:27:37.000 You're going to assassinate the snake, take the head off the snake.

00:27:40.000 And then Putin's listening to this.

00:27:41.000 He says, wait a second.

00:27:42.000 I thought NATO was supposed to stop.

00:27:45.000 And I'm not justifying the invasion of Russia of Ukraine.

00:27:48.000 Of course not.

00:27:49.000 That would be silly and stupid.

00:27:50.000 But I thought NATO was a defensive measure, not an offensive measure.

00:27:55.000 And there's Lindsey Graham, the head of whatever, you know, silly Senate committee, saying, I am going to go back to D.C.

00:28:02.000 And what does he say explicitly?

00:28:04.000 Your fight is my fight.

00:28:06.000 Oh, really?

00:28:07.000 So basically, he's saying, America is just basically now transported 5,000 miles away in Ukraine.

00:28:16.000 I thought the whole idea of NATO was supposed to be defensive and a deterrent, not an offensive measure.

00:28:26.000 And that goes to the point I made earlier that this is Ukraine was the farthest reach of the global woke American empire.

00:28:36.000 Where we tried, and this is the thing is that they always say, well, we need to export Western values to them.

00:28:42.000 I say, well, what if they don't want them?

00:28:45.000 And also, what Western values are you talking about?

00:28:47.000 Are you talking about freedom of speech?

00:28:49.000 Totally supportive that.

00:28:50.000 You're talking about constitutional rights?

00:28:51.000 Totally supportive that.

00:28:52.000 Oh, you're talking about abortion?

00:28:54.000 Oh, that's what you want to bring to Ukraine.

00:28:56.000 Got it.

00:28:57.000 Okay.

00:28:57.000 So, oh, you're talking about transgender issues.

00:29:00.000 Oh, I see.

00:29:03.000 Do you see the problem there?

00:29:05.000 It's like, oh, you want to have the BLM flag and the pride flag fly over Kyiv like you did with the State Departments all across the country.

00:29:14.000 So what Western values exactly are you trying to export?

00:29:19.000 What if everything in life is a lot more complicated than good man, bad man?

00:29:24.000 What if it's a lot more murky, a lot cloudier?

00:29:27.000 Well, here is one thing that isn't complicated, though.

00:29:29.000 And I want to reiterate this, is that the people of Ukraine are showing courage and they have been used as proxies by these thugs and these oligarchs on both sides, by the way, to try and, let's say, incite a conflict where it doesn't exist.

00:29:46.000 Binaries are for children.

00:29:49.000 A lot of life is nuanced.

00:29:51.000 It's in the detail.

00:29:55.000 It's outside of just a one-minute cable news segment where they try to use visual stimulation, propaganda, carefully worded Chirons and sound bites to try to trigger and elicit a response from you to try to act.

00:30:14.000 The furthest reaches of the global woke regime in the empire was in Ukraine.

00:30:20.000 And the hero worship of Zelensky, not of the people of Ukraine, is coming from the same people that told you to trust the science and America systemically racist.

00:30:31.000 I'm going to be a little bit suspicious of that, actually.

00:30:34.000 I think we should be a little bit sober on how we consume this information and how we act.

00:30:40.000 Prudence must be our guide.

00:30:45.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:30:46.000 You should be concerned about today's headlines.

00:30:49.000 I am too.

00:30:50.000 It's not pretty.

00:30:51.000 So here's the thing.

00:30:52.000 You should rely on yourself, especially when it comes to food.

00:30:56.000 Food shortages will only get worse in the coming months.

00:30:59.000 Do you have emergency food on hand that you can rely on when more empty store shelves appear?

00:31:04.000 If not, I urge you to get the four-week emergency food kit from MyPatriot Supply.

00:31:08.000 They're the nation's largest emergency food company.

00:31:38.000 Preparewithkirk.com.

00:31:40.000 Act now and your order will ship quickly and arrive discreetly at your door in unmarked boxes in three days or less.

00:31:48.000 We have to be very careful and discerning consumers of news.

00:31:53.000 And also, I believe I have an obligation to try to go a level deeper to try to say who's behind this government of Ukraine?

00:32:02.000 Who is behind this entire situation?

00:32:06.000 What's really going on here?

00:32:08.000 Well, Ukraine, because of their, let's say, government's willingness to accept money for nothing, has kind of become a piggy bank for so many families in America and the West.

00:32:25.000 We're going to go into a deeper level at some point all about how Hunter Biden got rich off of Ukrainian interests, oil companies, and other ways.

00:32:34.000 That Ukraine has been a client state for the State Department and for the very same people that you're worried that they're teaching your child nonsense.

00:32:44.000 That's who's basically been trying to run Ukraine.

00:32:48.000 So maybe this will mean something to you.

00:32:50.000 Maybe it won't.

00:32:51.000 But what if I told you that Zelensky and the government of Ukraine, not the people of Ukraine, have been enthusiastically supported by George Soros?

00:33:03.000 What if I told you that George Soros set up a foundation in Ukraine, quote, before they became independent from Russia, and he continues to operate in Ukraine today?

00:33:13.000 This is him in 2014 talking to Farid Zakaria on CNN, PlayCut 121.

00:33:20.000 One of the things that many people recognize about you was that you, during the revolutions of 1989, funded a lot of dissident activities, civil society groups in Eastern Europe, in Poland, the Czech Republic.

00:33:34.000 Are you doing similar things in Ukraine?

00:33:36.000 Well, I set up a foundation in Ukraine before Ukraine became independent of Russia.

00:33:45.000 And the foundation has been functioning ever since.

00:33:50.000 And it played an important part in events now.

00:33:54.000 Josh Hammer writes in, he's the head of Newsweek, editing an opinion sign.

00:34:00.000 He says, quote, Ukraine is just as corrupt and just as oligarchic as Russia, if not even more so.

00:34:06.000 At the time of Ukraine's 2014 color revolution, itself clandestinely abetted by liberal NGO types, which deposed the pro-Russian president Viktor Yanachovich.

00:34:18.000 The nation ranked as one of the most absolute most corrupt nations in the world.

00:34:24.000 He says, quote, there are neo-Nazi paramilitary units such as the Azov Battalion active in Ukraine.

00:34:30.000 Ukraine, lest anemic Westerners forget, is also the country that Hunter Biden and Barisma got rich off of.

00:34:39.000 Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Pushnik was for years a massive donor to the Clinton Foundation.

00:34:44.000 And Zelensky himself, of course, was at the center of Donald Trump's first entirely bogus impeachment.

00:34:50.000 It seems there is something fundamentally rotten about modern Ukraine that no enterprising investigative journalist has yet uncovered.

00:34:59.000 Wait, so there are neo-Nazi paramilitary units such as the Azov Battalion in Ukraine and Uber and Google and every major corporation is trying to have you to send money to go to Ukraine.

00:35:13.000 I'm not saying all the people of Ukraine are neo-Nazi paramilitary units, but that does exist.

00:35:20.000 The government is remarkably corrupt.

00:35:23.000 So, maybe the situation in Ukraine is not as simple as one jersey we need to cheer for, one jersey not.

00:35:31.000 The people of Ukraine deserve credit and they deserve to be commended.

00:35:38.000 But maybe the government of Ukraine doesn't care at all about the people of Ukraine.

00:35:42.000 Maybe the government of Ukraine has been getting rich, fat, and happy, shooting theatrical and cinematography videos, all the while knowing that there might be a different game at play here.

00:35:55.000 But that doesn't stop the Western media from fawning over Zelensky and his government, from doing everything they possibly can to try and demonstrate that Zelensky is the hero of the woke West against the East.

00:36:18.000 Discernment and prudence.

00:36:21.000 Just be very careful the type of news you're consuming in situations that could get us into a nuclear holocaust.
