00:00:00.000Hey everybody, Tana Charlie Kirk Show.
00:00:01.000Two students that are turning point USA leaders at the University of Georgia react to the horrific crime that happened at University of Georgia.
00:00:08.000We have a congressman join us about the Hunter Biden deposition.
00:00:13.000So email us as always freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:00:54.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:56.000And so unfortunately, until in order to help make sure that we can expedite releasing the transcript of this deposition, we've been asked to not get into the specifics.
00:02:43.000The goal of this deposition was to try to find information about, to try to shed light on the business transactions of Hunter Biden and some of these companies like Burisma or these Chinese energy executives, some of the conversations that potentially were having between, you know, during phone calls between Joe Biden and Hunter while he was meeting with some of these executives.
00:03:10.000So those are all the things that we, a lot of things, amongst others, that we were trying to get to the bottom of.
00:03:16.000And really following up on the testimony of Devin Archer and Tony Bobolinski and others that were suggesting that the brand was the Biden family name and that and obviously that comes with it influence.
00:03:33.000I want to play a cut here of one of your colleagues, Alexandria Casio-Cortez.
00:03:40.000What we just witnessed over the last hour was, I think, a deep sea fishing expedition because the Republican case has completely fallen apart over the last several weeks.
00:03:51.000After it's been exposed, that the critical, you know, one of their most key pieces of information was based on a source that was in communication with Russian intelligence.
00:04:04.000They are now trying to scramble to find anything to substantiate their fairy tale, is what we should call this.
00:04:35.000It's based on financial statements and documents, actual facts.
00:04:40.000And so, and certainly we do have other testimonies as well.
00:04:43.000And so there's a lot of things that have given, I would say, a 3D perspective on some of these transactions that have occurred, whether it's you're getting testimony from the IRS whistleblowers who are looking through their taxes.
00:04:58.000We're getting information from the Treasury Department with the suspicious activity reports.
00:05:03.000We were getting information from the business associates of Hunter Biden during their testimony, whenever they came in under being interviewed.
00:05:14.000We have the Hunter Biden laptop that we can reference and line up with some of these business dealings.
00:05:20.000So there's a lot of information, a lot of different perspectives, and the Democrats are trying to make a straw man out of this one FBI informant so they can, you know, as you know, strawman argument is you build them up so that you can tear them down easily.
00:05:37.000Can you also comment on yesterday there was some breaking news, Chairman Comer and Jordan are subpoenaing the DOJ for special counsel's HERS Joe Biden's interview records, including transcripts, notes, videos, and audio files.
00:05:52.000I'm not, I don't know, but the goal, I think the Chairman Comer and Chairman Jordan are doing a great job in this investigation.
00:06:02.000It's, you know, look, it was mentioned several times in some of the reports that the Biden specifically created a scenario that would take a long time for people to discover.
00:06:16.000But we have been doing a, you know, Chairman Jordan and Chairman Comer have done a really great job of trying to expedite that process and try to get to the bottom of what happened.
00:06:27.000So if we believe that the Senate will not necessarily convict Biden, what is your argument for moving forward with the impeachment inquiry?
00:06:36.000Well, look, we can't let a moral failure like this, something that has, you know, really an act of bribery, potentially, an act of selling out the interests of the American people.
00:06:51.000I can't let that go by without doing something about it.
00:06:55.000I think we have a moral imperative to expose what the Biden administration is doing, even if that means that the Senate Democrats are not going to do anything about it.
00:07:07.000We have a moral imperative to do something.
00:07:10.000Yeah, and what Joe Biden has been allowed to get away with for quite some time is remarkable.
00:07:18.000There's another breaking story here from FoxNews.com.
00:07:21.000House investigators heading to prison to interview ex-Hunter Biden biz associate amid impeachment inquiry.
00:07:27.000House investigators interview Jason Galanis in Alabama in Alabama prison Friday.
00:08:01.000So Congressman, just final thoughts here.
00:08:04.000It seems as if in the next couple of days there will be a vote to either do a CR or government shutdown.
00:08:08.000Anything you can share in regards to those ongoing negotiations and kind of the tone and the vibe of the conference?
00:08:14.000Yeah, I think that I think to me, the best path forward at this point in time, I wouldn't have said this months ago, but I think at this point in time, the best path, most conservative path forward would be to pass a one-year continuing resolution.
00:08:31.000I've never wanted to vote for a CR, but because we previously put in a mechanism that would cause a 1% trigger cut to the federal budget, that would be a remarkable cut for the first time in a long time, maybe even in the history of the United States, that we've actually had real cuts year over year to the federal expenditures.
00:08:55.000Barring that, if that doesn't happen, I'm not going to be interested in trying to pass in any budget that is going to fund this open border scenario.
00:09:07.000Would that be an actual cut in spending or a cut in the rate of growth of spending?
00:09:11.000Because sometimes in D.C., those get conflated.
00:09:14.000No, it would be an actual cut in spending if we were to pass a one-year CR because it triggers what we call the Massey rule that was crafted by Thomas Massey.
00:09:23.000He was kind of the innovator of this idea.
00:09:27.000And it was placed into the budget, the FRA bill that was passed whenever we were raising the debt ceiling last year.
00:09:35.000So as part of that agreement to raise the debt ceiling, there was an agreement to put into law that if we're under a continuing resolution by April 1, then there's automatically a 1% cut.
00:09:55.000Folks, so many people I know are disheartened that our country seems to have forgotten the importance of citizenship and they wonder how a strong sense of citizenship might be revived.
00:10:04.000That's why my friends at Hillsdale College have produced a free online course on this topic, American Citizenship and Its Decline.
00:10:11.000Taught by historian Victor Davis Hansen, the course traces the history of citizenship and explains how it is undermined in America today by open borders, by identity politics, by the administrative state, and by globalization.
00:10:27.000Americans taking the course will gain a deeper insight about the connection between citizenship and freedom, an insight they can share with their family members, friends, and neighbors.
00:10:36.000Hillsdale's free online courses are an important component of Hillsdale's mission to reach and teach increasing millions of people on behalf of liberty and the American way of life.

00:11:02.000The border issue continues to be the number one issue in the country.
00:11:06.000It's impacting every community across the country.
00:11:09.000In the next segment, we have students from the University of Georgia, Turning Point USA students, that will talk about the terrible death of Lake and Riley, which is unfortunate.
00:11:18.000Almost every single day, an illegal is murdering a Native born American.
00:12:20.000There's another crime waiting to happen.
00:12:24.000Unfortunately, probably in the next week, another American will be murdered by a trespasser in this country.
00:12:29.000Remember, the murder rate of immigrants ought to be almost near zero because so many people want to come to the United States that we should be able to only select the best.
00:12:37.000The murder rate at Harvard, for example, is zero because they're highly selective and they don't let in random murderers.
00:12:44.000Our immigration system should be the same, but instead, we let in millions of random drug smugglers, drunkards, violent psychos, and useless welfare sponges.
00:12:55.000This particular individual who killed Lake and Riley was arrested for a crime with a child in New York, released, comes in and murders Lake and Riley.
00:13:05.000In Arizona, the would-be serial killer released out of New York, comes to Arizona, kills somebody with a knife at a McDonald's, was going to do it again at Scottsdale Fashion Square, got arrested.
00:13:51.000He is an academic college-educated liberal who doesn't care that his abstractions, his pathological fantasies resulted in the murder of an innocent nursing student at the University of Georgia.
00:15:28.000Donald Trump should visit Athens, Georgia, and push for Lakin's law, forcing any sanctuary city to turn over criminals to ICE for immediate deportation.
00:15:39.000By the way, if Lake and Riley, if she would have been some sort of other criteria box with the left likes, maybe they would be talking about it.
00:15:48.000By the way, the Atlanta Journal Constitution, you know, the Associated Press did not mention once in the story covering her that any illegal murdered her?
00:16:19.000Keith says he now has, quote, little to no pain in my knees and highly reduced neck pain.
00:16:24.000Feeling so much better, he pursued a second-degree black belt.
00:16:27.000If you're living with aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug-free supplement, could help you feel better and live better every day.
00:16:33.000I know so many people that have taken Relief Factor and they speak highly of it.
00:16:37.000Developed by doctors, Relief Factor truly has helped so many people take back their lives.
00:17:00.000Get out of pain today, relieffactor.com.
00:17:04.000Joining us now is two of our amazing Turning Point USA chapter leaders and president at the University of Georgia, Emily Grace Kinsey and Connor Parnell.
00:17:17.000Emily and Connor, welcome to the program.
00:18:09.000Campus has definitely been odd since it happened.
00:18:12.000We actually had a meeting that night and the entire atmosphere on campus had changed.
00:18:16.000And as we get days out, there are definitely more political conversations sparking about the reasons that this tragedy even took place and really just the circumstances as a whole.
00:19:25.000And this is something that's really come out more and more after this terrible event is that Athens really isn't a terribly safe city to live in.
00:19:35.000And there's this illusion of safety once you enter the campus.
00:19:39.000So people think, oh, it's okay for me to jog on campus or walk around campus late at night because even though Athens is dangerous, well, this is on campus.
00:20:10.000I mean, people think of college as being this, you know, fun environment.
00:20:14.000And now it's a place where you can get murdered.
00:20:16.000And by the way, this is true at many campuses.
00:20:18.000So, Connor, I want to ask you, you know, being involved in our turning point chapter, do you think this is starting to pierce some of the ideological leftism?
00:20:28.000Do you think that some people might be acknowledging that allowing anybody into the country is probably not a great idea?
00:20:36.000Again, not trying to overly politicize it, but it's an obvious connection that this murder could have been prevented if we had a border.
00:20:43.000Are you seeing that start to at least open a little bit conversationally?
00:20:50.000Yeah, I would say somewhat it's opening up conversationally.
00:20:54.000However, per the leftist disposition, there's a certain cognitive dissonance that happens.
00:21:01.000And, you know, they I've heard a lot of times since this has happened that, you know, his immigration status doesn't matter and that, you know, this was simply a crime of opportunity.
00:22:53.000And rightfully so, because this is just a gross misuse of what should be protection is that, you know, this entire purpose of having a mayor is ideally to make sure that the city at a local level functions smoothly to look out very closely for the safety of the city's residents.
00:23:18.000And this is just completely throwing that out, saying, actually, we are going to prioritize anyone and everyone other than the legal residents of our city.
00:23:26.000And it's really disheartening and it's also really concerning moving forward with all of the talk surrounding it now, just to see how this will play out.
00:23:34.000And I want to be very clear, the criminal affidavit shows that he disfigured her skull.
00:24:25.000So, UGA is a carried campus, which I would say is probably the most important step that the University of Georgia can take to keep the campus community safe.
00:24:34.000There's nobody more responsible for your own personal safety than you.
00:24:39.000And so, yeah, on campus, we are allowed to carry.
00:24:42.000You're not allowed to carry into classrooms with students that are dual enrolled.
00:24:46.000So, those are classrooms that have high school students in them that are taking some college classes.
00:24:52.000But other than that, you can carry pretty much anywhere on campus.
00:24:56.000Sporting events obviously are excluded.
00:25:00.000But yeah, we are absolutely allowed to carry on campus.
00:25:03.000And I would say a lot of people are definitely talking about carrying more.
00:25:07.000It was actually one of the first conversations that started happening politically surrounding the murder is, you know, start carrying on campus.
00:25:14.000Start educating yourself in firearms and, you know, really make sure that you're keeping yourself safe.
00:25:24.000You have a government that doesn't care about you.
00:25:26.000You have a government that hates you that is totally indifferent.
00:25:30.000The only solution is you have to own guns and walk around with guns.
00:25:33.000So, Emily, especially as a young lady on campus, I would encourage you to get proper firearm training, you know, buy a gun and all of your lady friends to do the same, because unfortunately, our society doesn't care about protecting you, your president or the mayor.
00:25:47.000Final thoughts, Emily, given this tragic situation?
00:25:51.000It has definitely changed the culture on campus.
00:25:55.000And to kind of go off of the question that you would ask, Connor, this is actually one of the first meetings that we had as a turning point chapter after I became president was, what are your Second Amendment rights on campus?
00:26:05.000Just because it is something that I also care very much about.
00:26:09.000The only issue with it right now is that you cannot carry on campus if you are under 21 years old.
00:26:15.000But I know that me and a lot of my friends are saying as soon as we're 21, we are absolutely getting a gun.
00:26:23.000We absolutely have to carry on campus because there is absolutely no one else looking out for our safety.
00:26:30.000And the university has recently allocated, I think, $7.3 million to increasing campus safety with relatively redundant things.
00:26:43.000They put blue light systems up, which were at the university for over a decade and were only ever used twice and as jokes.
00:26:52.000And they've put way more money into the UGA Safe app, which is a great resource, but not a whole ton of people knew about even before this incident.
00:27:01.000And so it definitely is looking at, in my opinion, the wrong ways of how to fix this issue because it's not a university issue.
00:27:10.000It's a community issue and a policy issue.
00:27:30.000If I was a parent sending my kid to University of Georgia, I would say either you have a bunch of armed guards on campus or I wouldn't say, I don't, I wouldn't feel safe.
00:27:37.000I hope you guys, by the way, not being 21, what is that stupid thing?
00:27:41.000Brian Kemp has got to figure that out.
00:27:43.000If you're 18, you should be able to have a firearm on campus.
00:27:56.000For years, I've been talking about how our nation's public schools have been captured by progressive ideologues, especially true if you're a Christian family.
00:28:01.000For those of you worried about the best educational path to your kids and grandkids, I want to tell you about how Turning Point Academy is working with the Herzog Foundation, how you at home can also benefit from it.
00:28:11.000They have an online publication called The Lion, and also making the leap.
00:28:14.000The Herzog Foundation offers a wide range of advice and information for Christian parents to make the best education decisions for your kids.
00:28:52.000I do have some concerns about our democracy.
00:28:56.000I have been talking about this now for a long time.
00:28:58.000When I raised this issue back in 2018, that I did not believe that Donald Trump was planning to leave the White House, I was chastised for that.
00:29:08.000People criticized me saying I didn't know what I was talking about.
00:29:12.000Well, I think everybody now sees what I was talking about when I said I consider Trump to be a Mussolini and Putin a Hitler.
00:29:39.000Isn't it amazing that a journalist has still not published a book on how Joe Biden finished sixth in Iowa, fifth in New Hampshire, and suddenly the entire race reset in South Carolina and all these people dropped out and they consolidated behind Joe Biden, Buddha Judge, Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren.
00:30:00.000Isn't it something that an enterprising journalist has still not endorsed, still not published on that?
00:30:08.000I want your help because the combined intelligence of this audience is remarkable.
00:31:03.000If you're in an active posture from now to November and you win and nothing ends up happening and it's a boring year, then being in an active posture is no downside.
00:31:14.000But I remember vividly the champagne that was flowing and the cockiness that was in abundance in early 2020.
00:31:24.000I want to take you back to January 2020.
00:31:51.000We were at Mar-a-Lago, and it was the book publishing.
00:31:55.000I was publishing my book, The MAGA Doctrine.
00:31:58.000You could absolutely write, this was February 2020.
00:32:02.000You could have a Netflix special just on this one night.
00:32:05.000Off to the side was Donald Trump eating dinner with Jair Bolsonaro.
00:32:09.000Off to the other side was Tucker Carlson, who was there to warn Donald Trump about COVID.
00:32:16.000On the other part of the property was Don Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle, because it was Kimberly Guilfoyle's birthday.
00:32:21.000We had our own party off to the side and kind of our own little table.
00:32:26.000And it just felt too good to be true because there was this thing that people were starting to whisper, but it felt like it was like a fringe conspiracy.
