00:00:35.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks!

00:00:38.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:39.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:26.000 There is no GPS for where we are.

00:01:30.000 There is no Garmin compass.

00:01:33.000 We are in uncharted territories.

00:01:37.000 I get asked by the hour, do you think Biden stays in?

00:01:39.000 Do you think Biden goes out?

00:01:40.000 Do you think Biden stays in?

00:01:41.000 Do you think Biden goes out?

00:01:43.000 I have a different answer hour by hour.

00:01:46.000 Earlier this week I was in Montana helping my friend Governor Gianforte, doing a great job, also trying to rally the troops to retire John Tester, a critical Senate race.

00:01:56.000 I was asked, Charlie, do you think Biden remains?

00:01:58.000 I said, as of right now, yes.

00:02:00.000 On Monday it looked as if Joe Biden had dug in.

00:02:03.000 The siege was Decreasing in its intensity, and we thought he was staying.

00:02:10.000 But in the last day, even more developments are now percolating to the top.

00:02:17.000 Wednesday morning, George Clooney's op-ed was a big deal.

00:02:21.000 Now, for those of us that are in the conservative world, for those of us that are raising families and going to church, What George Clooney's opinions of politics are is not just inconsequential, it's negatively interesting to me.

00:02:34.000 Couldn't care less.

00:02:36.000 However, remember we went through the five power centers of the Democrat Party, and one of them is Hollywood.

00:02:44.000 In the Democrat coalition, George Clooney has as much power and as much credibility as if, for example, The head of the National Rifle Association during its heyday would have wrote that op-ed.

00:02:59.000 That's how much power George Clooney has.

00:03:01.000 George Clooney has fundraising capacity.

00:03:04.000 George Clooney has clout within the Democrat Party.

00:03:09.000 George Clooney has for quite some time been loyal to Joe Biden and loyal to the entire Democrat Party.

00:03:20.000 And then Nancy Pelosi goes on mourning Joe, and kind of pitter-patters around the whole thing.

00:03:26.000 I want Joe to do what Joe wants to do, and we'll see what happens this week.

00:03:31.000 Democrats are continuing their siege against this White House.

00:03:35.000 Now, I'm not exactly one to give advice here, but if they really wanted to get rid of Joe Biden, I could tell you exactly how they could get rid of Joe Biden, and it wouldn't be hard.

00:03:47.000 And no, it wouldn't require the FBI or the CIA.

00:03:50.000 It wouldn't require the Department of Justice.

00:03:53.000 Well, it could.

00:03:54.000 There are two ways, I could say.

00:03:56.000 The first of which is they could release the Her tapes, the Robert Her tapes.

00:04:00.000 But that's unlikely.

00:04:01.000 They're going to keep those probably under seal because Garland is loyal to Biden.

00:04:05.000 But it's even easier than that.

00:04:07.000 Here's what you got to do.

00:04:08.000 And they did this to Trump time and time again.

00:04:11.000 How many times did you see Someone that worked in the orbit of Donald Trump resign and reappear a week and a half later with a book deal and a primetime interview talking about how Trump really is behind the scenes.

00:04:25.000 If you really wanted to get rid of Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama, if you really wanted to get rid of him, Here's what you do.

00:04:34.000 You go raise some money from Reed Hastings or Reed Hoffman and your Democrat donors and you pass the hat around.

00:04:41.000 You say, we need like a million bucks.

00:04:43.000 We're going to go find a White House aide who has worked closely with Joe Biden.

00:04:49.000 You peel them off, resigns, and they do a sit-down interview with a person of your choosing, Stephanopoulos, Lester Holt, Kristen Welker, and that aide, all the aide needs to say is, we have been covering for Joe Biden for the last couple years, and I can't live with myself anymore, and he has to resign.

00:05:13.000 That right there would potentially end all of this.

00:05:17.000 Now Joe Biden is holding out.

00:05:19.000 Remember, we asked the provocative question earlier this week.

00:05:25.000 Is Joe Biden Bashar al-Assad or Muammar Gaddafi?

00:05:32.000 Which one?

00:05:33.000 Muammar Gaddafi.

00:05:35.000 The Clintons went after Muammar Gaddafi, remember she was Secretary of State, and Obama did, and they got rid of Gaddafi.

00:05:40.000 This is not the first regime change for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

00:05:44.000 They've worked together on regime change all across the Middle East, and they have a mixed track record.

00:05:51.000 They wanted Assad bad.

00:05:53.000 Assad was the crown jewel. 0.86

00:05:55.000 Remember, Assad was the proxy of the Russian Federation.

00:05:59.000 They're very close.

00:06:00.000 Pipeline goes right through Syria.

00:06:02.000 Remember the Syrian red line? 0.55

00:06:04.000 They wanted Syria bad. 0.94

00:06:07.000 For their globalist imperialist project, they wanted to get rid of Bashar al-Assad.

00:06:13.000 And they weren't totally upset about the Syrian civil war because it resulted in massive influx of Migrants to Europe, which has changed the political fabric of Europe permanently. 1.00

00:06:26.000 Joe Biden is holding on as this siege continues.

00:06:29.000 The salvos keep on getting launched.

00:06:32.000 If you really wanted to get rid of Joe Biden, peel off one of his aides, pay him some money, get him a book deal, and say, tell us the truth.

00:06:41.000 And he could write this book, The Big Lie I Can't Hold Any Longer.

00:06:46.000 That's it?

00:06:47.000 You just got to find one White House aide that will say, you have no idea how bad he actually is.

00:06:51.000 He doesn't know where he is half the time.

00:06:53.000 All the rumors are true.

00:06:55.000 I can no longer live with myself.

00:06:56.000 Thank you so much.

00:06:57.000 By the way, that person would not even be torpedoing his or her future career in Democrat politics.

00:07:02.000 In fact, that person would be potentially celebrated in Democrat politics.

00:07:08.000 I was up late last night listening to a Mark Halperin podcast.

00:07:11.000 I've always found Mark Halperin to be super smart and very well-researched here.

00:07:18.000 Mark Halperin, I think, leans to the left, but he has this new program called Two Way, where it's essentially a big Zoom call with a lot of—almost every single one of them is very, very engaged, incredibly well-read Democrat voters.

00:07:32.000 I found it actually to be very easy to listen to.

00:07:34.000 I'm going to listen to some more episodes.

00:07:36.000 But he understands the pulse of the inner workings of the Democrat Party better than any reporter that I've seen in recent weeks.

00:07:44.000 And he's very direct, and he's very clear.

00:07:47.000 Playcut 102.

00:07:47.000 Listen to this.

00:07:48.000 I haven't talked to a single Democrat today who doesn't want Joe Biden gone, regardless of what their public position is.

00:07:54.000 They would be relieved.

00:07:55.000 They would trade him for Vice President Harris.

00:07:58.000 Increasingly, they would trade him for an open convention, which we'll talk about.

00:08:01.000 But there's going to be an extreme push, and in part it's because There's so much unhappiness on Capitol Hill.

00:08:07.000 So many members of Congress who want him gone, even the ones who haven't said so publicly.

00:08:12.000 Here is the open question.

00:08:15.000 Will Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer conduct a secret ballot of elected officials in Congress?

00:08:22.000 That Would be interesting to see.

00:08:25.000 According to Mark Halperin, later on in the episode, Mark Halperin said if there was a secret ballot, if you want Joe Biden to remain or Joe Biden to go, it would result in 20% of people saying that we want Joe Biden to remain.

00:08:41.000 Chuck Schumer!

00:08:43.000 One of the few voices considered close enough to Joe Biden to sway his decision has privately signaled to donors that, quote, he is open to dumping him as the nominee.

00:08:53.000 This comes as Representative Pat Ryan, someone I've never heard of, becomes the eighth House Democrat calling for Joe to step down.

00:09:00.000 Halperin, in this episode, Also gets why Pelosi matters.

00:09:05.000 Other than Obama, she basically is the only other top Democrat who doesn't need to worry about backlash. 0.81

00:09:12.000 She's not running the caucus anymore.

00:09:13.000 She controls a lot of donors. 1.00

00:09:15.000 Her whole life has been building the power center in the Democrat Party.

00:09:19.000 So a lot of Democrats are looking to her, and let's be honest, Hakeem Jeffries has not yet won the trust over of the caucus.

00:09:29.000 If Nancy Pelosi They don't want to disrupt the grand imperialist project of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. 1.00

00:09:37.000 for the end of NATO, waiting for the end of NATO, because NATO is like the most important thing in

00:09:40.000 their mind. Fine, whatever. They don't want to disrupt the grand imperialist project of

00:09:48.000 the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Sure. As soon as that ends, you see,

00:09:53.000 the Biden people are being crafty.

00:09:55.000 They say, oh no, a Lester Holt interview, because they know if they can run out the clock enough, there's a virtual roll call nomination that gets Joe Biden on the ballot in Ohio, and then it's done.

00:10:06.000 They have 10 to 14 days, but oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, wait, wait, there's one thing that might bail out Joe Biden.

00:10:13.000 What is the news going to be all about next week?

00:10:15.000 Trump hasn't chosen his vice president yet and there's something called the Republican National Convention where every credentialed media on the planet descends in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

00:10:28.000 Are you ready to lose weight but not sure where to start?

00:10:29.000 I understand.

00:10:30.000 I was right where you are two years ago.

00:10:31.000 Let me tell you why I chose the PhD Weight Loss and Nutrition program.

00:10:35.000 First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in Chronic Disease and Sports Nutrition.

00:10:39.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:10:42.000 Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition.

00:10:44.000 There is so much more.

00:10:45.000 They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind.

00:10:47.000 and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place.

00:10:50.000 There's no shortcuts, pills or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change.

00:10:55.000 And finally, and probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds. Look, they're amazing.

00:10:58.000 If you want to lose weight, you've got to go to myphdweightloss.com.

00:11:01.000 I was just texting with Dr. Ash Lucas today. If you're ready to lose weight for the

00:11:16.000 I recommend their program.

00:11:17.000 Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition.

00:11:21.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:11:24.000 Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition, but it's so much more.

00:11:27.000 Go to MyPhDWeightLoss.com.

00:11:29.000 MyPhDWeightLoss.com.

00:11:31.000 Call 864-644-1900.

00:11:34.000 I lost over 30 pounds.

00:11:35.000 Dr. Asher Lucas, great American.

00:11:36.000 Check it out.

00:11:37.000 MyPhDWeightLoss.com.

00:11:41.000 So what options do you have, if you're a Democrat party, if you can convince Joe Biden to get down?

00:11:46.000 And a new national poll came out yesterday that Joe Biden is going to tattoo to his chest that showed Joe Biden tied or up one against Donald Trump in a national poll.

00:11:55.000 And that very well could be true.

00:11:57.000 National polls are goofy.

00:11:59.000 Could be an outlier, but I think this race is much closer than people realize, especially given their infrastructure, their apparatus, their ballot chasing.

00:12:08.000 I still give us a 50-50 chance of victory.

00:12:11.000 Democrats are freaking out more about their chances than our side is celebrating.

00:12:16.000 I want to give credit to our side before I play cut 104 about the Open Convention, which is our side is viewing this with almost shock and awe.

00:12:28.000 There's not flowing champagne.

00:12:30.000 There isn't calls for celebration.

00:12:33.000 There's almost like, what's really going on?

00:12:36.000 Who's in charge?

00:12:38.000 And many of you in this audience have decided to keep your head down and go find new voters.

00:12:47.000 Register new voters.

00:12:48.000 That is the proper reaction to all of this.

00:12:52.000 Democrats are the ones that are pulling the alarm because they know that the chances of them replicating what happened in 2020 is diminishing.

00:13:05.000 PlayCut 104.

00:13:06.000 Clooney called for an open convention.

00:13:09.000 One of the things that's changed in the last day or two is the assumption that Vice President Harris either couldn't be talked out of wanting the nomination Or couldn't be expected to fight for the nomination at the convention that you would need to be coordinated.

00:13:24.000 That stock has dropped precipitously.

00:13:26.000 There have been people for an open convention from the start, but Clooney put the flag hard in open convention.

00:13:31.000 Again, not an accident.

00:13:33.000 And I think if Joe Biden does step aside and Vice President Harrod wants to be the nominee, increasingly, again, this is a 180 flip for me.

00:13:41.000 Increasingly, I believe it's more likely to be an open convention.

00:13:45.000 Now, this is all just speculation.

00:13:47.000 What is an open convention?

00:13:48.000 Now, hilariously, the Democrats thought, the way that they were planning things, that it was gonna be Republicans that would have an open convention.

00:13:57.000 Oh, Donald Trump will have all these felonies, Donald Trump will be facing prison time, DeSantis will be ascendant, the primary will be bitter and brutal, Nikki Haley will raise all this money, and Milwaukee will have the open convention.

00:14:12.000 Now, it's more and more likely That if Biden collapses, and this siege is about to intensify, I have reporters that have texted me that are harmonizing with what Halperin has said, which is they have yet to drop the Moab, the mother of all bombs.

00:14:32.000 And the Moab is a combo of Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Clinton.

00:14:38.000 They have not deployed their best.

00:14:41.000 Dark Arts operators yet.

00:14:43.000 Again, I host a talk show and run Turning Point.

00:14:45.000 You're saying Turning Point Action.

00:14:47.000 I'm telling you how you do it.

00:14:48.000 You peel off an aide and you get it done.

00:14:50.000 You might say, well, Charlie, don't give them any ideas.

00:14:53.000 That's pretty obvious, isn't it?

00:14:55.000 Let's see if they do it.

00:14:57.000 What is an open convention?

00:14:59.000 An open convention would mean that you release all the delegates.

00:15:02.000 Now they need to understand this and they know it.

00:15:06.000 That according to reporters, about half of these delegates are to the left of AOC.

00:15:13.000 They are rabid.

00:15:15.000 You would have a convention where people would be interrupting each other for using the wrong pronouns. 0.95

00:15:21.000 You would have all the trans stuff, all the groomer stuff. 1.00

00:15:25.000 You would have mass calls for amnesty.

00:15:27.000 You would have climate change.

00:15:28.000 You would have people booing the idea that One Nation Under God and the Pledge of Allegiance.

00:15:33.000 You would have calls for post-birth abortion paid for by taxpayer dollars.

00:15:37.000 I mean, you would have the most radical elements within the Democrat Party on full display.

00:15:43.000 In Chicago, meanwhile, you got all the Gaza-Israel stuff still going on.

00:15:48.000 If they can even hold back the... hold back the fences from the potential riots that are going to be happening in a redux of the 1968 Democrat Convention that happened in Chicago.

00:16:00.000 The oligarchs of the Democrat Party are going to do everything they possibly can to prevent and to hold back an open convention.

00:16:12.000 At an open convention, you could get Bernie Sanders as a nominee.

00:16:16.000 At an open convention, you could get Elizabeth Warren as a nominee.

00:16:20.000 At an open convention, there are no rules, and they release the beasts of the wild.

00:16:29.000 And then you would have a non-stop speech carousel.

00:16:32.000 Now, mind you, selfishly, for ratings, I would love to watch this.

00:16:38.000 I mean, could you imagine our livestreams at night?

00:16:41.000 Instead of having speeches every night, they would have a competition of who could be the most trans.

00:16:48.000 You got Pete Buttigieg, you got Kamala Harris.

00:16:50.000 No, no, no, I would do more DEI.

00:16:52.000 No, I would push CRT more.

00:16:54.000 Oh man, that would just be something on full spectacular display.

00:17:00.000 Will Joe Biden survive the siege?

00:17:02.000 I want to hear from you.

00:17:03.000 What do you think?

00:17:04.000 Email me freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:17:06.000 That is freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:17:09.000 The White House and Joe Biden's presidency is on its last breath.

00:17:13.000 Will he survive?

00:17:16.000 Alright, I need to tell you guys about StrongCell.

00:17:19.000 It's amazing.

00:17:20.000 With nearly a million units bought by you, it is more clear than ever that StrongCell works.

00:17:27.000 It works to combat fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, skin issues, and constant sickness.

00:17:32.000 I've been taking it personally for over a year now, and it's changed my life.

00:17:35.000 I take it in the morning with breakfast and it helps with natural energy, so I don't have that afternoon crash.

00:17:40.000 And it gives me the clarity of mind to do all that I do every day, which is a lot.

00:17:43.000 If you're tired of feeling tired, struggling with memory, or constantly getting sick, then you have to give StrongCell a try.

00:17:51.000 I love this product because it has NAD.

00:19:10.000 So joining us now is an American hero, she's doing amazing, and Turning Point alum, Congresswoman Ana Paulina Luna, who has been pushing forward on this inherent contempt vote with Merrick Garland.

00:19:23.000 Now, we...

00:19:25.000 Reported on Twitter last night that some people couldn't be bothered to rebook their flights.

00:19:32.000 Let me say that again.

00:19:33.000 This vote was not able to be successful because some members had to go back to their districts to go raise money.

00:19:40.000 What the heck is going on?

00:19:44.000 I don't know the full dynamics of some of the absences, but what I will say is we had a few members out due to family emergencies.

00:19:51.000 I think two members ended up going to the hospital.

00:19:53.000 So what I will say is that there was actually a numbers issue.

00:19:57.000 It's not just this that went down.

00:19:59.000 There was a legislative appropriations bill that actually went down, and that's one of our biggest bills that we do every year.

00:20:04.000 And so I will say this, we've already refiled and I'm actually currently in talks with one of the members that has been a hard no on multiple contempt votes and so it's my hopes that we can get everyone on board and obviously we will be fully bringing this back up as soon as we get back.

00:20:22.000 As you know, we're out for convention and then we return so we will be bringing this back up.

00:20:26.000 Yeah, this is what I don't understand.

00:20:29.000 So there's only so many work days, and I want to walk through the entire story.

00:20:32.000 So does everyone understand, John Duarte from California, David Joyce from Ohio, Mike Turner from Ohio, and Tom McClintock from California, they couldn't be bothered to rebook their flights to hold Merrick Garland in inherent contempt?

00:20:46.000 Well, they're actually there and voting.

00:20:49.000 And I think, you know, these members, again, I am in talks with a few of them to get them on board with what we're doing.

00:20:59.000 I think there was other absences.

00:21:02.000 That were actually, I think the number is close to 11 Republican members were missing.

00:21:06.000 As you know, Representative Massey, he had his wife pass away and Representative Mass had his father pass away.

00:21:12.000 And so there were some members that were gone, but they will be back.

00:21:15.000 And so those members, remember last night, between last night and tonight, the Democrats actually flew in people and we lost people.

00:21:22.000 And so I believe that's actually why this went down.

00:21:25.000 If you saw, it was by a very few votes.

00:21:28.000 And also to remember, they actually put this vote midway and there were people leaving early for flights.

00:21:34.000 And so I actually am going to be asking leadership to ensure that this is actually placed at the front of the pack for the next vote series, because sometimes this happens on flyout days.

00:21:43.000 So let's take a step back.

00:21:45.000 What is the significance of this inherent contempt vote?

00:21:48.000 What would this mean for Merrick Garland?

00:21:50.000 So it would mean that Merrick Garland is a not above the law, but also it would find him for defying subpoenas.

00:21:56.000 You know, there's been it's crazy to me that the media has not linked this to really what happened with Watergate.

00:22:01.000 And the fact that we've had in the Watergate situation, there were tapes that were being prevented from Congress was prevented from seeing.

00:22:09.000 And obviously, that was used during impeachment.

00:22:11.000 And ultimately, you know, the fact is, is that We have to ensure that the institution is protected and that people are not defying subpoenas.

00:22:19.000 And that's what this is really all about.

00:22:21.000 And I think the fact that Garland is getting a free pass, meanwhile Americans go to jail for less, is a huge problem.

00:22:27.000 And so again, my Republican colleagues and also Democrats were unaware that this was a tool that has really been in the Jefferson's manual for a very long time.

00:22:37.000 It was kind of forgotten since the 1900s.

00:22:40.000 And so we are bringing it back and I do hope that one of those no votes will actually help me with the legislation and that we will get final passage on this when we return.

00:22:49.000 So the no votes, I hope, you know, have a change of mind and a change of tune.

00:22:55.000 And the process as it is fit, this is all very timely.

00:23:00.000 Right now, Steve Bannon is in a federal prison cell.

00:23:05.000 For contempt of Congress.

00:23:07.000 Right now, Peter Navarro is in a federal prison cell for contempt of Congress.

00:23:12.000 Eric Holder was held in contempt of Congress.

00:23:15.000 No one held him accountable.

00:23:16.000 Merrick Garland?

00:23:18.000 No one is accountable.

00:23:19.000 You said it perfectly, Ana.

00:23:20.000 We are lectured by the apparatchiks in the Operation Mockingbird media on a daily basis.

00:23:25.000 Well, no one's above the law.

00:23:27.000 No one's above the law.

00:23:28.000 No one's above the law.

00:23:30.000 But is Merrick Garland currently above the law?

00:23:33.000 Currently he is, and that is exactly what I'm trying to prevent, is there to be a two-tiered justice system.

00:23:39.000 Again, if you could see what we were dealing with, and I'm sure you saw some of the floor debates last night, Charlie, but there was multiple attempts, not just by deep state actors, and I mean that, there were people that even before this came to the floor for the parliamentary procedures to even allow it to come to the floor, they were trying to kill this.

00:23:56.000 They were telling members of Congress That the House had no legal standing, which was actually false.

00:24:01.000 There's Supreme Court precedents for what we're doing.

00:24:04.000 They were trying to convince members that this was not actually something that could be done and that the fine was unconstitutional, which is also false.

00:24:12.000 Again, I actually faced the same pushback from the same people, actually, when we had the Adam Schiff vote.

00:24:18.000 But again, members, especially every member, is going to vote their conscience.

00:24:23.000 And I do believe that some of those no votes may have their reasonings for not doing really

00:24:30.000 what the rest of us are doing, which is holding garland.

00:24:32.000 However, it doesn't mean that they can't change their mind.

00:24:34.000 And so I'm having this conversations, but what I will say is that we are in a very curious time

00:24:40.000 in our country because we know that Trump is going to be to be taking the White House.

00:24:44.000 Democrats are already making their exit plans.

00:24:46.000 We're hearing Kamala Harris is actually considering a governor's run.

00:24:49.000 And also too, we're hearing that Obama's team is increasingly trying to push Biden out.

00:24:54.000 So you're actually seeing a massive riff.

00:24:55.000 And then also this week, the Democrats that flew back in were not the ones that support Joe Biden.

00:25:01.000 They were the ones that do support Joe Biden.

00:25:04.000 And so you're seeing this come to, I think, the forefront.

00:25:08.000 And again, going into convention, I think that a lot of people have something to consider.

00:25:11.000 But remember, if we're in a truly free country, we need to establish that Congress is an equal co-branch of government.

00:25:17.000 And so we can't have people undermine that.

00:25:19.000 That's exactly what What is happening right now with A.G.

00:25:23.000 Garland?

00:25:23.000 And again, there's massive comparisons into what happened with the Watergate scandal, and I'm surprised the media hasn't picked up on that.

00:25:29.000 So, would you say that Kamala Harris is thinking of running for governor of California? 0.83

00:25:34.000 Yeah, actually, Kevin Kiley actually had posted that they were receiving words that she's actually considering that, and that she's already prospecting.

00:25:41.000 So she's primarying Gavin Newsom, or?

00:25:45.000 I think Gavin Newsom is going to potentially make a 2028 run.

00:25:48.000 We'll see what ends up happening if he ends up leaving prior.

00:25:50.000 But she's definitely considering that, possibly primary.

00:25:53.000 But I'm also hearing that Joe Biden is now trying to pass something that would effectively treat Ukraine like a NATO country and prevent us from cutting off funding.

00:26:03.000 And that's going to be something that he's doing by executive order.

00:26:05.000 So he knows that he's leaving, and that Trump's going to mitigate and stop what's happening with Ukraine and Russia.

00:26:11.000 And so he's making a last ditch effort to tie our hands.

00:26:15.000 So let's kind of summarize all this together.

00:26:17.000 Is leadership behind this inherent contempt vote?

00:26:21.000 I think that leadership is behind it currently, as it stands.

00:26:25.000 And I will say that I do hope that they continue to help push this towards the front of the pack on the next vote series.

00:26:32.000 And I also hope that they have had all their questions answered, especially after the floor debate, where we actually destroyed the Democrats' arguments that this was not constitutional or could not be argued in the Supreme Court.

00:26:43.000 Remember, Charlie, there's a lot of people up here, not leadership, but staff, That have been extremely problematic and that do intentionally every step of the way try to undermine and also get in the ear of the representatives, whatever it might be, whether it's saying that it's not accurate legislation or that there's no case law for it.

00:27:00.000 And so again, if you guys could see what we were fighting just to get it to the floor, you guys would be shocked.

00:27:05.000 But what I will say is that you saw the Republican body as a whole supports this.

00:27:09.000 And we do want to fight for this country.

00:27:10.000 We do want to establish us as an equal co-branch of government.

00:27:12.000 So I look forward to working with one of those members, Leto Novo.

00:27:16.000 And what I will say is that we're not stopping.

00:27:18.000 I hope you guys continue to support those members of Congress that are trying to bring accountability to Garland.

00:27:24.000 And what I will say is Garland, from what I know and I'm hearing, was absolutely sweating and he was actually continuing to call members, trying to convince them to take a walk.

00:27:33.000 So just really quick, I have to you're doing amazing on it.

00:27:36.000 We're so proud of you.

00:27:37.000 You said that there are Republican members of staff that are trying to undercut the wishes of Republican voters.

00:27:45.000 Tell us more about that.

00:27:46.000 Yeah, so I actually caught several that were intentionally lying to key people that advise members, saying that this wasn't constitutional.

00:27:56.000 And I think that it's going to be appropriate for those people to be dealt with on the back end, and I'm going to ensure that that happens.

00:28:02.000 But they are in very powerful positions, and have been in Washington for probably 20 years, and are in positions that advise the House legally, and that can't be tolerated.

00:28:13.000 Yeah, and by the way, the power is in the staff.

00:28:14.000 You know that.

00:28:15.000 So much of the power that is vested in Congress is in the staff.

00:28:20.000 So what is the call to action?

00:28:22.000 One minute remaining, Ana, for this audience.

00:28:24.000 I'm gonna ask every person to please nicely call your representative and voice your conscience and that we need to get this passed.

00:28:33.000 But more importantly, it's important that you guys are engaged because moving forward to a Trump presidency, which is going to happen, remember when Trump had his initiatives, it was Congress that had actually blocked a lot of what he wanted to do, and that was a Republican-held body.

00:28:49.000 So there were people here that did not want to secure the border, etc.

00:28:52.000 Since then, some of those people have not gotten re-elected, but it is really important that you guys know exactly who you guys are voting for.

00:28:59.000 Get involved with ballot chasing operations, help out, and work at local precincts.

00:29:04.000 Get involved in local politics.

00:29:05.000 It matters.

00:29:07.000 Congresswoman Ana Paulina Luna, great work.

00:29:09.000 Thank you so much.

00:29:10.000 Thank you.

00:29:11.000 So here's the list.

00:29:12.000 Dan Crenshaw was not there.

00:29:14.000 Let's see.

00:29:15.000 Granger from Texas was not there.

00:29:18.000 LaTurner from Kansas was not there.

00:29:20.000 Thomas Massey's wife just died, so that's completely understandable.

00:29:24.000 And McHenry from North Carolina was not there.

00:29:29.000 This needs to be a priority.

00:29:31.000 No more excuses, guys.

00:29:32.000 And by the way, Massey's back.

00:29:34.000 If Massey can make time after His wife dies.

00:29:39.000 To come back to vote for this?

00:29:41.000 There's no excuses.

00:29:44.000 You might have heard Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.

00:29:50.000 They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass the savings directly on to you by having a $25 extravaganza.

00:29:58.000 When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one-product company.

00:30:02.000 With the help of his dedicated employees, they now have hundreds of products and some of you may not even know about it.

00:30:07.000 To get the word out, I want to invite my listeners to check out their $25 extravaganza.

00:30:37.000 I want to read you this wonderful email.

00:30:43.000 Charlie, I am so excited.

00:30:44.000 This is Philip, one of our listeners.

00:30:46.000 I just registered three Trump supporters this afternoon.

00:30:50.000 I was wearing one of my many Trump shirts this evening and I asked three of my employees who all said they loved the shirt if they were registered to vote.

00:30:58.000 All three of them said no.

00:31:01.000 I pulled up your Turning Point Action website for the first time and said, here you go.

00:31:06.000 Each one of them took less than one minute.

00:31:09.000 And now we have three more registered Trump voters.

00:31:13.000 My shirts are a way to get the conversation going.

00:31:15.000 I tried to submit this on your website, but I kept saying error when trying to submit in case there's a problem.

00:31:19.000 Okay, email this.

00:31:20.000 We're gonna get that fixed, but you guys can always email us freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:31:23.000 Boom! 0.99

00:31:24.000 That is three new voters.

00:31:25.000 This audience is the tip of the spear.

00:31:27.000 You guys are the citizen force.

00:31:30.000 And for Philip doing that, I'm going to send you a signed book just because I'm so excited about that.

00:31:35.000 That is the energy, that is the force multiplication.

00:31:40.000 This country will not be saved for you.

00:31:43.000 You have to save your country.

00:31:45.000 And what Philip did is three times more than what I expect out of people.

00:31:50.000 The exponential impact of that.

00:31:53.000 Every single person in this audience can do that.

00:31:56.000 And if you're not comfortable getting into the details of registering voters, okay, let's say you go out to your favorite diner on Saturday morning to go get breakfast.

00:32:04.000 Strike up a conversation with the waiter or waitress.

00:32:06.000 You know that your tips will be tax-free if Donald Trump becomes president?

00:32:10.000 When you go to the hardware store, if you go to the, if you go to the gun shop, when you go to get your hunter's license, be bold.

00:32:19.000 Wear the Trump hat.

00:32:21.000 By joining this citizen force, you become a force multiplier.

00:32:25.000 We make it too big to rig.

00:32:28.000 While the Democrats are in a slow-motion collapse, while the media, for the first time in nearly 30 years, has the knives out for a Democrat president, this does not happen, everybody.

00:32:40.000 We can watch this as spectators, or we can seize the moment and do the work.

00:32:45.000 It is about action, action, action, as Steve Bannon would tell us.

00:32:51.000 I want to continue here.

00:32:53.000 This is the Mark Halperin Show, or the Two Wave or something they call it.

00:32:58.000 Let's go to, this is about the deadline.

00:33:00.000 It's very important.

00:33:01.000 The RNC, which starts Monday, it's going to be the center of gravity of all politics.

00:33:07.000 In the greatest of all irony, the RNC could bail out Joseph Robinette Biden.

00:33:13.000 Playcut 106.

00:33:13.000 Even though I think that sometimes there are kind of artificial deadlines created by the media and by some politicians.

00:33:20.000 I really do believe that by early next week, given the timing of everything, there'll either be a successful effort to convince him for his own good, not for the good of the country, for his own good, he needs to step aside.

00:33:33.000 Joe Biden does not take well to any of this.

00:33:37.000 You see, there's a Hill.com article, which is very important.

00:33:41.000 In addition to what we believe is a clear pathway ahead for us, there's also no indication that anyone else would outperform Biden v. Trump.

00:33:51.000 Hypothetical polling of alternative nominees will always be unreliable, and quote, this is from the Biden campaign, surveys do not take into account the negative media environment that any Democrat nominee will encounter.

00:34:03.000 How long?

00:34:04.000 Alright, I want the gambling odds, Blake and Ryan and Andrew.

00:34:08.000 How long before Joe Biden at the NATOs, the big boy summit tonight, he goes, oh boy, you guys are fake news.

00:34:15.000 The Joe Biden arc towards becoming Donald Trump, the metamorphosis is underway, by the way.

00:34:25.000 Joe Biden's becoming, he's got a tan going.

00:34:29.000 Joe Biden's fighting the media.

00:34:30.000 Joe Biden's running against the elites.

00:34:32.000 When I see Joe Biden in these interviews say, yeah, it's the elites that want me gone.

00:34:38.000 All roads end in this big merge where they just become the same person.

00:34:43.000 And in a Marvel movie type ending, Biden and Trump announce each other as VP picks, teaming up to fight the media and the deep state.

00:34:54.000 Joe Biden is down in every tracking poll, so he says, I might as well become Donald Trump.

00:34:59.000 The siege against the Biden campaign is continuing, but the timeline is everything.

00:35:06.000 The timeline is critical.

00:35:08.000 The RNC could bail out Joe Biden.

00:35:11.000 Joe Biden and his campaign are holding on.

00:35:13.000 They are death gripping.

00:35:15.000 And July 21st really is the big day.

00:35:17.000 July 21st is, so you have 10 days from here.

00:35:20.000 So if Joe Biden can survive the Lester Holt interview, Joe Biden could, by the way, just say, I'm going to Camp David.

00:35:27.000 I'm not stepping out.

00:35:30.000 See you later.

00:35:32.000 Ten days, everybody.

00:35:34.000 What was that movie where they said seven days?

00:35:37.000 Was that The Sixth Sense?

00:35:38.000 I can't remember which movie that was.

00:35:41.000 The Ring!

00:35:41.000 Thank you.

00:35:42.000 That was an awful movie.

00:35:43.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.

00:35:44.000 Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:35:46.000 Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
