00:00:14.000If you want to come to AmericaFest, the largest celebration of conservatives in the country, go to amfest.com.
00:00:20.000AmericaFest will be the largest conservative event celebrating America.
00:00:24.000We have Tucker Carlson, Kaylee McEnany, Greg Gutfeld, Ted Cruz, Jesse Waters, Candace Owens, Jim Jordan, Donald Trump Jr., Pete Hegseth, Madison Cawthorne, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Rand Paul, Jack Posobiec, Benny Johnson, Kat Kamak, Burgess Owens, Louis Gilmert, Matt Gates, Lauren Bobert, Dennis Prager, Sebastian Gorka, Sean Foyt, Sarah Palin, Brandon Tatum, Michael Chandler, Steve Weatherford, Cameron Haynes, Jimmy John Leotold, Andy Biggs, Byron Donalds, Devin Nunez, Alex Marlowe, Chad Wright, John Lovell, Ryan Klechner, James O'Keefe,
00:00:54.000Pastor Jack Hibbs, Dr. James Lindsay, Pastor Rob McCoy, Drew Hernandez, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, Elijah Schaefer, and Nick Vujichich, Brantley Gilbert, Dustin Lynch are going to be doing musical performances.
00:01:07.000Russell Dickerson, Adam Doliak, Ray Lynn, Lee Greenwood, and DJ Silver.
00:02:19.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:05:23.000But the great debate on the right currently, and the establishment has a certain view, and grassroots people, which listen to this show, have a different view, of is Biden doing this intentionally?
00:06:23.000Now coming on to almost a year into this regime, with one of the worst records on just this, talk about just the southern border, just the southern border, wide open.
00:06:36.0001.7 million people have crossed from the southern border into the interior United States.
00:07:41.000But the plan of weakening the U.S. dollar, of globalizing America, of keeping the borders wide open, of destroying small businesses, of bailing out blue states, which they did in March and no one covered it.
00:07:58.000They're thrilled with what they've accomplished.
00:08:02.000What they've accomplished is setting back the United States decades, financially, fiscally, morally, culturally.
00:08:11.000They're implementing wokeism, critical race theory into every aspect of the military and the government.
00:08:16.000For Pelosi, who wants a fundamental reshaping, destruction of the country, but she'll say it's reshaping of America.
00:08:23.000This has been the most effective presidency ever for that agenda.
00:08:29.000If you want to, if you want to run the country off the cliff, these people are experts.
00:08:39.000Obama pales in comparison with what this machine has done.
00:08:44.000Play cut 44, Biden talking about the midterms.
00:09:20.000It's irrelevant of whether or not he believes that or not.
00:09:22.000What's more relevant is how do we as conservatives handle the unraveling of America?
00:09:31.000So if you ask the Mitt Romney types, if you ask the moderate Republican types, which many of you are represented by moderate Republicans, many of you listening to this program right now have moderate, establishment, weak need, spineless, vanilla, corporatist, technocratic, I could go on, Republicans that represent you in the U.S. Senate of the House.
00:10:38.000I want you to put on those, the kind of how they view the world.
00:10:43.000They view the world through a march through history.
00:10:48.000They look at history as an unraveling plan towards utopia.
00:10:55.000They look at every measure, spending measure, government program, every intervention of the state can eventually contribute to the perfection of the human being.
00:11:09.000Is Biden and the regime doing this intentionally or unintentionally?
00:11:14.000If you listen to the show at all, you know the answer that we believe.
00:11:19.000And therefore, if we come to the conclusion he's doing it intentionally, I'm going to tell you why that's a completely different footing of how we need to handle Biden than what Republicans.
00:11:33.000It's the most important question of our current posture on how to handle this regime.
00:11:41.000Did you know that if you shop at Nike, they turn around and give your hard-earned dollars to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood and the Population Council?
00:11:48.000Did you know that Airbnb gave $500,000 to the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization?
00:11:54.000Your first vote is at the ballot box, but that isn't enough to defend our traditional Judeo-Christian values.
00:12:00.000Left-wing corporations are subverting our democracy by taking money from conservative customers and giving it to radical organizations that support abortion, gun control, and critical race theory.
00:12:11.000You have another vote, a second vote at the checkout line.
00:12:14.000And that is where massively important organizations called Second Vote come in.
00:12:19.000The courageous people at Second Vote are exposing corporations for how they spend your money.
00:12:55.000And you get 50% off the information you need to have before you make your next purchase.

00:13:12.000You know, I was thinking the other day: if this was all a movie, who do you think the bad guys would be?
00:13:19.000You really think the bad guys would be the people that are rejecting the vaccine, who are like firefighters, police officers, and carpenters and plumbers?
00:13:28.000Or maybe it would be the CEOs of the pharmaceutical companies, the head of the government, and the people in charge of the international organizations.
00:13:36.000I mean, it's a bond movie waiting to happen, basically.
00:13:39.000In fact, literally, it's a bond movie waiting to happen.
00:13:43.000Not trying to do a spoiler for anyone, but if you watched the recent Bond movie, it's eerily similar to kind of what we're living through.
00:14:10.000It's important, and the law, by the way, reflects this.
00:14:14.000It's important for the reason that our law treats someone who accidentally runs somebody over at their car differently than someone who gets out of their car with an axe and cuts their head off.
00:14:30.000Negligence under the criminal code can be pled down to home arrest, fines, and maybe a felony on your record.
00:14:41.000First-degree murder almost always comes with significant jail time, sometimes the rest of your life.
00:14:46.000So the question is: is Biden running America over with his car, or is he intentionally trying to destroy it and then back over it and back over it again and back over it again?
00:14:59.000And then that is instructive to those of us that actually love the country of how we handle him.
00:15:04.000And this is something if I had to give, if I had to get down to the core of why I think Republicans are so useless, it's this question.
00:15:20.000Conservative donors, activists, and more politicians are starting to get this question right.
00:15:27.000You could see it in the tone, the tenor, the presentation, but still, far too many powerful people in the Republican Party, they sit deep down in there.
00:15:36.000And I actually think they believe it, but they don't say it because they still want to be accepted in decent and polite society and they want their daughter to go to Stanford and their wife to sit on the board of the Kennedy Center or whatever thing a ruling class Republican does.
00:15:49.000But I think deep down, Republicans know that Democrats want to destroy the country.
00:16:45.000Do we agree that private property is a necessary prerequisite?
00:16:48.000The right to private property is a necessary prerequisite for human flourishing and freedom.
00:16:53.000Do we believe that the fruits of the Enlightenment, while properly managed under a guideline of ancestral tradition, is something that can actually help humans flourish?
00:18:32.000As we celebrate the Christmas season, we often pause to consider our many blessings.
00:18:36.000Hillsdale College wishes to thank you for standing with them as they celebrate over 177 years of blessings.
00:18:42.000Since 1844, the Beacon of the North, the last college, Hillsdale College, has held fast to its mission to provide the kind of education essential to preserving free government.
00:18:51.000And for decades, the college has extended its educational mission on behalf of liberty through a variety of outreach programs.
00:18:56.000Perhaps you receive in Primus for every month, or you've taken one of Hillsdale's excellent online courses or attended one of Hillsdale's free regional events.
00:19:04.000You know of Hillsdale's refusal to take even one penny of government money.
00:19:07.000This independence allows the college to focus on promoting its core purpose, learning, character, faith, and freedom without government interference.
00:19:14.000And no time in our nation's history has there been a greater need for this kind of classical liberal arts education that Hillsdale offers on its campuses and nationwide.
00:19:21.000So during this season of blessings, Hillsdale thanks you for partnership in extending its mission to the country.
00:19:26.000To learn more about Hillsdale College and take their online courses, the Aristotle course, the Winston Churchill course, the Dying Citizen course, which I'm about to wrap up with Victor Davis Hanson.
00:19:40.000For parents out there, require your children to take at least one Hillsdale course before they get any Christmas gifts.
00:19:46.000You see, I'm a very big fan of parents withholding good things unless kids do the necessary things.
00:19:54.000Kids shouldn't just get Christmas gifts because they exist.
00:19:57.000They should get Christmas gifts because they've earned them.
00:20:00.000And by earning them, they need to take Hillsdale online courses to learn about Western civilization, learn about God, learn about Genesis, the book of Genesis, the Constitution, and more.
00:20:09.000Charlie4Hillsdale.com, Charlie F-O-Rhillsdale.com.
00:20:17.000We're covering so many different stories here.
00:20:19.000Vaccine mandates from people that are twice vaccinated, three times vaccinated, getting infected, colleges getting shut down that are fully vaccinated.
00:20:29.000Is Biden doing this intentionally or not?
00:20:30.000And one thing that we just want to make sure we focus on, because it's really important, is what's going on in Washington, D.C. as far as trying to pass this ridiculous Build Back Better bill.
00:20:42.000And this is really important for all of our listeners right now.
00:20:44.000And AM960, the Patriot in Arizona and some of the other key states with us is a friend of mine.
00:20:51.000She runs the America First Policy Institute, Brooke Rawlins, who's going to help us navigate this bill and kind of what we can do about it.
00:21:00.000Brooke, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:21:21.000And let me just say really quick, Charlie, you were right there with us on all the big fights.
00:21:26.000And you and all of your turning point patriots and warriors, everyone that is in the Charlie Kirk orbit, I mean, we knew who to call whenever we were working on anything.
00:21:34.000Tax cuts, healthcare reform, all of the above.
00:22:02.000Well, the Build Back Better bill, which we have renamed, that's the Biden spending bill, which we have renamed the Big Government Socialism Bill, because it literally is a wish list that for so many years, Charlie, so many of our elected officials would kind of whisper about the Green New Deal and taxpayer funding abortions and payoffs to China and just kind of had them, you know, all out there.
00:22:27.000Well, this bill literally puts it all in one place.
00:22:30.000It's truly breathtaking the fast-paced march towards socialism that this bill takes.
00:22:38.000It literally is everything Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been talking about and fighting for in her tenure in public office.
00:22:46.000It is no doubt that the far left has completely taken over the Democrat Party.
00:22:50.000And you can see it firsthand in Biden's big government socialism spending bill.
00:22:55.000About $5 trillion based on numbers that just came out from the CBO, the Congressional Budget Office, which, by the way, is not a friend of conservatives.
00:23:03.000They normally budget and give numbers that are much more friendly to the left.
00:23:08.000But that $5 trillion number just came out on Friday, just a couple of days ago.
00:23:12.000And of course, the Pelosis and Schumers were like, oh, that's not right.
00:23:22.000And so America First Policy Institute with so many friends, including Turning Point, have locked arms over the last few months.
00:23:28.000We've got about 65 conservative organizations that are fighting this bill with every breath in our body because it really is that bad.
00:23:37.000For those of us that have been around a little longer than Charlie Kirk on this earth, like me, I've been in public policy for 20, 25 years, worked in Texas most of that time, the White House the last four years before this administration.
00:23:49.000There's never been anything like this that is such a huge threat to freedom and to those who love America and our Constitution.
00:23:56.000So it's really important that we talk about it.
00:24:24.000But now I think we've got a real shot to really shoot this thing in the heart and put it in its coffin for good.
00:24:31.000Clearly, we need more of the senators like from West Virginia, from Arizona, New Hampshire, Montana that are on the Democrat side.
00:24:40.000But they too are realizing that this bill is so destructive to America.
00:24:44.000So we're really working to ensure that they are educated on what it is that they are being asked to support by their White House and the far left wing of their party.
00:24:52.000So let's go through some of the specifics of the bill, which I think will just blow people's minds.
00:25:40.000So let's talk about illegal immigrants right now.
00:25:42.000There are billions and billions and billions of dollars in this bill to incentivize, to pay, to support illegal immigrants, illegal aliens in America.
00:25:52.000And I'm sure some of you, if not all of your listeners, have heard one of those is a massive payout to those children.
00:25:58.000They say were separated from their parents under the Trump policy.
00:26:02.000There are incentives to cross the border.
00:26:04.000As we all know, open borders are the thing right now under this administration.
00:26:08.000We're going to have millions on top of the millions that are already here of undocumented immigrants, illegal aliens based on this bill, and we're going to be paying them to do so.
00:26:19.000The IRS has been, will be empowered under this bill to not only watch our statements and what we're paying in taxes, but to actually go into our bank accounts.
00:26:29.000There are taxpayer funds in this bill for abortion.
00:26:32.000Listen, we can have a whole other discussion on whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, but 80%, maybe 90% of Americans agree, no matter where you are on that spectrum, taxpayer funds should not be used for abortions.
00:27:10.000It's going to increase the debt by trillions of dollars, which, of course, we know plays into the increase in inflation, which, of course, we know makes the most expensive Christmas just had the most expensive Thanksgiving on record.
00:27:24.000This last, you know, four years under Trump, where we became an energy exporter, not an energy importer, that changes everything geopolitically from a national security interest.
00:27:34.000But almost as important, if not more, is the mom in Detroit doesn't have to choose between heating and eating because for the first time when we're energy independent, her energy costs go down.
00:27:45.000Under this bill, they go way back up and we lose all independence on energy.
00:27:49.000You'll see seven and eight dollar gas.
00:27:51.000It really is the wish list of the Marxists that is right in front of us every day that they're getting ready to vote on.
00:27:56.000So, I just want to read some of these lists that you sent us from American First Policy Institute: $64 million to the EPA to contract with environmental justice groups, $5 billion for environmental and climate justice block grants.
00:29:06.000And for those that pay very close attention, probably not many because it's really boring, but Pelosi and Schumer have been calling for votes on this for months.
00:29:15.000I mean, we back in October, we were working around the clock to stop got delayed.
00:29:19.000In November, all of November, they were working around the clock to get the vote up and it was delayed again.
00:29:24.000In December, Senator Manchin, especially, has been very clear that from the West Virginia perspective, the inflation this will cause, the tax increases this will cause, the destruction to the energy business, especially coal in West Virginia.
00:29:39.000Of course, Senator Manchin has been very on top of, he doesn't like taxpayer funding for abortions.
00:29:44.000But Senator Sinema in Arizona, too, is not comfortable with what this will do to small business, as she should be.
00:29:50.000She's not comfortable with what this, you know, America goes back to the highest corporate tax rate in the world under this bill.
00:29:56.000Of course, we know that's where we were.
00:29:57.000And then under the Trump years, we decreased that to be more on average.
00:30:01.000And it unleashed the greatest economy our country had ever seen-the lowest poverty rates for Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, disabled Americans, everyone.
00:30:09.000And now the Biden team want to throw all of that completely in the trash.
00:30:14.000And so, where it stands now is we're just continuing to work to educate, especially in key states around the country, what this bill does and is, and hope that it dies on the vine.
00:30:24.000That's really what we're focusing on right now.
00:30:26.000So let's let's close on that note, Brooke.
00:30:30.000Because I get this question all the time.
00:30:31.000They say, Charlie, I call these numbers, no one answers.
00:30:34.000But if you're in Arizona and you flood cinema or Kelly's office, which is bizarre because Kelly's actually up this cycle, you'd think he'd be more responsive.
00:30:41.000But I think cinema actually wants to be a senator for the rest of her life.
00:30:44.000Mark Kelly, I think, just want, I don't really know what Mark Kelly wants to do.
00:30:54.000And I think this is why, Charlie, what you and your platform do is so important every day and really does make a difference when Senator Cinema or Senator Kelly or the Republicans even, when they hear from their constituents that they are educated and they are aware and they know that this bill will destroy America, then they will listen.
00:31:13.000And really while AFPI and all of our friends are sort of a tool that we're getting the message out and working to educate Americans, we've been up on TV and on radio in these key states for a couple of months now.
00:31:25.000But it is the people, it is the constituents of these senators that really they need to hear from.
00:31:30.000They don't care what AFPI says, but they sure care when they get 100 calls from constituents in their state that say, whatever you do, if we want to protect the American way of life, this bill will not do that.

00:37:09.000For Ayanna Presley, Rashida Talib, AOC, Schumer, Raphael Warnock, Mark Kelly, they all have something in common.
00:37:20.000They do want to see the U.S. dollar weakened.
00:37:23.000They do want to see these borders wide open.
00:37:26.000And the Build Back Better bill, which is just a pile of garbage, we just went through that, is a means to the end for that.
00:37:36.000Now, breaking in just the last couple of minutes, some very interesting news from Jesse Rodriguez from NBC News, who actually tends to be rather accurate when he breaks stuff.
00:37:45.000Senate expected to shelve Build Back Better plan, moving forward aggressively now on, quote, voting rights.
00:37:53.000So because corporate lobbyists got in the way for good reason and killed the Build Back Better bill, they're going to shift gears and try to get cinema and mansion to a nationwide takeover of HR1.
00:38:06.000Now, I want to scare you as we end this hour.
00:38:10.000Joe Biden says, I want to tell my Republican friends, get ready, Bal.
00:38:15.000What if Joe Biden thinks he's going to win because he's going to have a federal takeover of elections?
00:38:22.000What if Joe Biden thinks he's going to win because he thinks up his sleeve he's going to be able to convince Manchin Cinema and every other Democrat to have a national takeover of mail and balloting and destroy state sovereignty of elections?
00:38:35.000That is about to become the most consequential intergenerational fight that Congress will ever take on.
