00:01:39.000Now, J.D., I notice we don't have any teleprompters here for you tonight.
00:01:44.000It's a little just off-the-cuff taking questions and also questions from the audience.
00:01:48.000What do you make of it, how strange and bizarre it is Kamala Harris has gone 40-plus days without taking a serious interview by herself or a press conference?
00:02:08.000You know, look, I mean, she's terrified of the media because she's terrified of the American people because she knows that if she speaks off the cuff, she's going to let them know just how completely radical she is.
00:02:18.000I mean, look, Kamala Harris, her entire campaign, think about this, she's trying to run away from every position that she had three and a half years ago.
00:02:26.000She said she wanted to defund the police.
00:02:29.000And by the way, we should be thinking about and praying about those two Phoenix police officers who just got shot yesterday.
00:02:33.000God bless them and thank them for their service.
00:02:37.000Sounds like we've got one in stable condition and that's great, but hopefully both of them come out of it.
00:02:41.000But look, wanted to defund the police, now she says she doesn't.
00:02:45.000She wanted to ban fracking, now she says she doesn't.
00:02:47.000She was the border czar who opened the American southern border, but now all of a sudden she says she believes in border security.
00:02:53.000I joke with President Trump that she's going to show up at a rally one day with a long red tie and the slogan, Make America Great Again, because that's what Kamala Harris is doing.
00:03:02.000She's pretending to be You know, we had a rally, Charlie, where the president called me right before I went out and he said, what do you think is going on here?
00:03:24.000She is exactly what she has governed as.
00:03:27.000And the reason why she only talks to the American people with a teleprompter sitting in between them is because she knows the American people can smell a fraud and she is a fraud and we have to remind people of it.
00:03:40.000And we saw this on display at the DNC in Chicago where they pretended to be something they were not.
00:03:47.000Now the radicalism they allowed to slip here or there, but basically it reminds us the country is not nearly as liberal as its leaders have become.
00:03:57.000That the country is a center-right country.
00:04:09.000And she knows that if she ran as what she truly is, a San Francisco liberal, that the people would reject that soundly.
00:04:17.000So we must not just remind her, but let's go through that record.
00:04:20.000It's very important, just on the police in particular.
00:04:23.000What did she do in 2020, four years ago?
00:04:26.000She donated to a bail fund, is that correct?
00:04:30.000Yeah, it's almost hard to believe, Charlie, but I looked this up, it actually is true.
00:04:34.000Remember when there were rioters in the summer of 2020 that burned down the city of Minneapolis and a bunch of other cities on top of it?
00:04:40.000Now, they didn't catch a whole lot of them, but they did catch some of those rioters, and guess who was at the front of the line trying to bail them out of prison?
00:04:47.000Kamala Harris, who now says that she supports police officers.
00:04:52.000She was bailing out the people who were attacking police officers, And burning down a great American city, that is the record of Kamala Harris.
00:05:00.000And let's have a president like Donald J. Trump who actually supports our police officers who keep us safe.
00:05:10.000But it actually gets worse, Charlie, because Kamala Harris, she likes to say that she was a tough-on-crime prosecutor.
00:05:16.000Her record as prosecutor is that she turned San Francisco into the high-crime problem that it is today.
00:05:23.000San Francisco, by the way, one of the most beautiful cities in the country before Kamala Harris got a hold of it.
00:05:29.000And after she let the drug cartels, The drug dealers and everybody else take hold of San Francisco.
00:05:35.000You're now at a situation in San Francisco, where if you call the police, unless you're getting actively assaulted, they will say sometimes, call us back in a couple of hours.
00:05:44.000They're so overwhelmed, and that is the record of Kamala Harris.
00:05:48.000So we can't, again, Charlie, this is so important, we can't let people forget exactly who she is.
00:05:53.000And remember, it's not just that she said all these crazy things back in 2020, It's that she has governed like a San Francisco liberal.
00:06:00.000And this is the kicker, that she's also attempting to do some sort of a mind manipulation trick.
00:06:07.000She's the current Vice President of the United States, right everybody?
00:06:12.000Charlie, it takes a special level of shamelessness.
00:06:15.000Maybe I've only been in politics for two years, so I just haven't reached that level.
00:06:19.000But to look at the American people, even though she's reading off a teleprompter, and to say, on day one, we're going to make groceries and housing more affordable.
00:06:28.000On day one, Kamala Harris says this, we're going to tackle the American southern border.
00:06:32.000Kamala, day one was three and a half years ago.
00:06:34.000what the hell have you been doing the whole time?
00:06:57.000Thank you, thank you, but... All the pastors in the room have to forgive me, because I do sometimes talk like my mammal.
00:07:07.000And she was a woman of very serious Christian faith, but she did love the F-word every now and then, so hopefully that's the only curse word that I have.
00:07:40.000It's so frustrating because a Democrat will be running for office and they'll raise a bunch of out-of-state money like Ruben Gallego and previously Mark Kelly and they'll run all these ads where they'll literally walk alongside Trump's border wall and then they'll go to the Senate and vote against everything but they will lie to the vote.
00:09:17.000He didn't let people take advantage of our asylum process.
00:09:20.000Kamala Harris, on day one, promised she was going to undo all of that stuff, and that's exactly what she did.
00:09:26.000And we have the border catastrophe now because of that.
00:09:28.000Charlie, we have to remember here the incredible human toll of this stuff.
00:09:33.000Because we have American citizens right now who are dying of fentanyl overdoses that the Mexican drug cartels are bringing into our communities.
00:09:40.000We have thousands, this is hard to believe, we have thousands of missing children because Kamala Harris has let the cartels sex trafficking minors in our own country.
00:09:52.000You know my story, Charlie, but I was raised by a woman who struggled with addiction for a big chunk of my early life.
00:09:59.000That's one of the reasons why my grandmother played such a big role for me.
00:10:02.000And, you know, Mom, I remember when she took something that she shouldn't have taken, and it almost took her life.
00:10:07.000And she was in a coma for a few days, and I remember praying, you know, Lord Jesus, please let Mom wake up this time.
00:10:17.000She did get that second chance, and she's been clean and sober, by the way, for almost 10 years.
00:10:21.000And God bless her, and I'm so thrilled for that.
00:10:28.000But imagine, Charlie, if the poison that Kamala Harris is letting come across the border today had been coming across 15 years ago.
00:10:35.000I don't think that I would have gotten that second chance with my mom.
00:10:37.000And so Kamala Harris, and to every broken D.C.
00:10:41.000politician from Rugen Gallego on down, If you're not going to do your job and you're not going to stop this poison from coming into our country, our message on November 5th is you are fired.
00:10:52.000We've actually got some political leaders who are going to work for the American people.
00:10:58.000And according to the Department of Homeland Security, it's 320,000 missing children.
00:11:06.000And here we are in a house of worship, a house of the Lord, and we as Christians, that alone should be a reason to vote for Donald J. Trump and JD Vance.
00:12:09.000The way that you keep families together is to send a message that if you want to come to this country, you've got to come through the proper channels.
00:12:16.000When you empower these cartels, when you tell everybody that they can come across illegally, that's what causes family separation on an industrial scale.
00:12:27.000Never let them tell you that Kamala Harris' border policies are compassionate.
00:12:31.000There are 320,000 voices of children crying out, telling us Kamala Harris is not compassionate, she is a disaster, and we cannot promote her to the Oval Office.
00:12:45.000Hey, this is Charlie Kirk for my friends at BestHotGrill.com.

00:13:46.000They frame it as, you're right, a compassion issue, and it's not compassionate for anyone involved, including also, you guys feel it in our neighborhoods here in the Valley, with crime going up and the break-ins, and you guys see what's happening, and it's happening all across the Valley right now, where we have seen the toll of this illegal invasion, and they're sending them all across the country as well, where every single state has now become a border state.
00:14:12.000And now, God forbid, and I want you to speak about this, J.D., because you speak about it so eloquently, God forbid, and this happens all the time, unfortunately, a 16-year-old makes a mistake at a party at 2 a.m.
00:14:22.000on a Saturday, where he takes a drug that otherwise would have just been, you know, a bad night, but he could end up dead because of something laced with fentanyl.
00:14:31.000Because that is, every week we see that story coming out of the valley.
00:14:53.000And it's because the cartels have figured out that if they make this stuff look like childhood candy, it's more likely to get through.
00:15:00.000So now what happens when a kid picks up a packet of Nerds on a playground Or opens up a packet of candy in his high school and now that kid is going to die because he took a piece of candy.
00:15:19.000It's one of the core messages of the gospel.
00:15:22.000It really bothers me when you hear about some kid who, you know, they smoked They smoked a joint and it was laced with fentanyl.
00:15:30.000Or they got into a pill and it was laced with fentanyl.
00:15:32.000And now a childhood mistake took their life.
00:15:34.000And you'll even hear sometimes, when I talk about this, you'll hear sometimes people on the Radical French say, well, they shouldn't have taken that in the first place.
00:16:04.000German Shepherds don't like the Phoenix weather, it turns out.
00:16:09.000I think I want my kids to grow up in a country where our neighborhoods are safe enough.
00:16:14.000They can make a mistake without it taking their life.
00:16:17.000And I want them to be able to deal with their childhood mistakes and with their problems and with their sins at church instead of having it destroy them.
00:16:25.000And that is what Kamala Harris has done.
00:16:28.000She's taken safety away from our kids.
00:16:30.000She's taken second chances away from our families.
00:16:34.000And from a policy perspective, this is a decision.
00:16:39.000This is a very important thing is that the Democrats and Kamala Harris, they frame the border issue as if it's this uncontrolled thing happening and that we have to just kind of manage it as if it's like a natural disaster.
00:16:52.000Let's be clear, we are allowing it to happen.
00:16:55.000What is happening is an act of the will.
00:16:59.000Yeah man, it's an unnatural disaster and her name is Kamala Harris, right?
00:17:03.000That's exactly what's going on here is we've got leadership That refuses to do its job.
00:17:09.000I mean, we have to remember, they came in bragging about the fact that they were going to undo every single one of Donald Trump's border policies.
00:17:56.000So get out there, tell Kamala Harris you are fired and we're not going to reward people who gaslight us and lie to us about what they've done in office.
00:18:10.000This state is one of the most consequential and one of the most crucial, which is why you're here.
00:18:17.000And just to reiterate what I said earlier, every single one of you going out with Turning Point Action and to chase ballots and to register voters, J.D., we're seeing in this state, one of the buried leads, is that this state is actually becoming more Republican, not more Democrat, in 2020.
00:18:38.000In 2020, we had about 100,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats.
00:18:45.000Four years later, we now have 260,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats.
00:18:52.000So we have become, and that's net, that is a net increase, and it's happening because Everyday Americans are seeing the failure of the open border policies, of seeing what's happening internationally, which I definitely want to talk about, which does not get enough attention recently.
00:19:08.000But also, Phoenix, especially, and everyone here is feeling it, it used to be a decade ago one of America's most affordable cities.
00:20:28.000So when you raise the cost of energy, then you raise the cost of everything else.
00:20:32.000Kamala Harris would rather us buy oil and gas from tin-pot dictators all over the world.
00:20:38.000I think we ought to buy energy from American workers and from American territory.
00:20:43.000And that'll create a... And Charlie...
00:20:49.000That'll create a lot of jobs, man, but it'll also drive down the cost of everything.
00:20:53.000I mean, we have to remember, you know, 30 years ago, and I hear this from Democrats, I hear this from Independents, I will hear people say, you know, 30 years ago, our parents just working a normal American middle-class job could afford to buy a home.
00:21:07.000And they could afford to send their kids to a school where they were going to get an education and not an indoctrination.
00:21:12.000And even if you weren't rich, you could trust that your kids were going to walk down the street In safe neighborhoods.
00:21:19.000We have taken all of that away, except for the very rich and privileged people in this country, because they can afford private security, and they can afford to send their kids to school wherever they want to, and they can afford when Kamala Harris raises the price of energy by 50%.
00:21:34.000The gross majority of American citizens.
00:21:36.000And we cannot forget that when these guys say that they stand for the common man, or they stand for working people, You know who stood for working people and his policies backed it up?
00:22:01.000Where those that worked at their hands, the muscular class, and I see some of you guys out here, the plumbers, electricians, the welders, those of you that shower before work and after work, Those of you that are talked down to by your leaders because you don't have a college degree.
00:22:37.000collar boom. And this is why, J.D., everyday voters, they might say, oh, I don't know how
00:22:41.000I feel about Trump, but my life was better when Trump was president. My life, we were
00:22:47.000richer, our communities were safer, we had a border. That alone should decide the election.
00:22:54.000Can you talk about how blue-collar America, the communities that you represent in Ohio, especially, because that is really the blue-collar center of this country, they were flourishing under Donald Trump.
00:23:06.000And I think it's useful to go back a little bit because we have to remember, and I'd say it was bipartisan, Charlie.
00:23:11.000For 30 years in this country, you had Republicans and Democrats united around a very stupid principle, that America didn't need to make its own stuff.
00:24:34.000As we gear up for another important election year, remember that we vote every day with our dollar.
00:24:38.000One of the best ways to support America is by buying from local farms and ranches.
00:24:42.000Good Ranchers makes this easy by delivering 100% American meat to your door.
00:24:47.000When you shop with Good Ranchers, you're not just getting the best meat for your family, but also supporting American farmers and ranchers.
00:24:53.000This year, instead of buying imported meat, cast your vote for American agriculture and local economy.
00:24:58.000I've used Good Ranchers meat for quite some time and they never disappoint.
00:25:01.000Whatever your choice of protein, you'll be pleased if you cast a vote for Good Ranchers.
00:25:06.000Use code KIRK for $25 off your order and your choice of free chicken breasts, ground beef, bacon, or wild-caught salmon for a year.
00:25:40.000We're competing against foreigners for homes.
00:25:43.000By the way, what a violation of the social contract that your 25-year-old son, who's an American citizen, gets married, wants to have a beautiful family in Gilbert, and has to go compete against a foreigner for a home?
00:26:10.000Look, Charlie, you put it so well, this is disgraceful.
00:26:14.000Kamala Harris' entire policy is to Import millions and millions of people into this country who violate our laws and then give them benefits that should go to American citizens.
00:26:33.000She wants to give illegal aliens Medicare which would bankrupt that program and throw millions of American citizens Which is a perfect segue to her running mate.
00:27:29.000Nora O'Donnell from CBS, and I think what actually might happen based on his military service is he's going to bail out at the last minute, but say he went anyway.
00:27:37.000I think that's the Tim Walz approach to the debate.
00:27:44.000By his own admission, he says he's not a good debater.
00:27:56.000But let's just look at the record, because not only has Kamala Harris stood for foreigners over Americans in every possible way, let's look at Tim Walz.
00:28:04.000Tim Walz, taxpayer-funded tuition for illegals in Minnesota.
00:28:08.000Correct me if I get any of this wrong.
00:28:10.000Taxpayer, the driver's licenses for illegals.
00:28:14.000And also, I know there are other policies as well that were accommodating foreigners in the state of Minnesota.
00:28:20.000On top of that, there's so much there that needs to be explained, yet he does not take questions.
00:28:26.000And I want all of you to understand this.
00:28:27.000If you're an undecided voter watching this at home, because we have millions of people watching this, or if you're an undecided voter here tonight, the ticket that is willing on a daily basis to take questions from reporters is probably the ticket that should govern your country, not the one that runs away from reporters.
00:28:46.000If I may editorialize just a little bit more, why are reporters and journalists continually providing cover for the side that won't talk to them?
00:28:58.000It's like, at some point, when will these reporters say, I'm not going to carry your water anymore because you won't even allow me to ask a question.
00:29:06.000By the way, how pathetic was that CNN interview with Kamala Harris and Tim Wall?
00:29:54.000But after, of course, $13 billion of damage had been done.
00:29:57.000This is a guy who, I was asked by John Carl of ABC, said, you know, you've accused Tim Walz of wanting to kidnap people who don't want to consent to gender reassignment for their kids.
00:30:08.000And I said, well, he signed legislation, he supported legislation that would take children away from their parents if their parents don't want to do sex changes.
00:30:17.000How would you define that as anything other than kidnapping?
00:30:20.000And this is a guy, by the way, Charlie, who says that he believes in small government, that he wants the government to stay out of your bedroom.
00:30:28.000He wants the government to steal your children from you if you don't agree with Tim Walz's values.
00:30:35.000That's disgusting and he should be ashamed of himself.
00:30:37.000But look, the... But the most fundamental issue, and we're going to keep on going back to it, Charlie, is you cannot stand for working people.
00:30:50.000He says that he's a union guy, that he supports union people, that he supports working people.
00:30:56.000If you're trying to import millions of illegal aliens to steal their jobs.
00:31:00.000There is no way that you can square that circle.
00:31:03.000The biggest threat to American workers in this country, the biggest threat to Americans being able to afford a home is when Kamala Harris has let 25 million illegal aliens just set up shop in this country.
00:31:13.000So Tim Walz doesn't stand for workers.
00:31:16.000He stands for the Democrat Party donors, and that's exactly who's going to serve as Vice President.
00:31:21.000That's who Donald J. Trump and I believe we ought to serve and we ought to fight for.
00:31:29.000So let's expand on one of those points, which I think is very important.
00:31:33.000So Tim Walz signed a piece of legislation, and by the way, Washington, Oregon, and California have very similar laws, and these are called trans-sanctuary state laws, where Effectively, it is medical kidnapping, where if you have a 14 year old son or daughter that declares that they are a boy when they are biologically a girl, or vice versa, that the state has the ability to take possession and custody of your minor.
00:32:03.000If you as the parent do not affirm the new gender that they might have learned at school or on TikTok.
00:32:49.000But now we have social media going and telling them that, hey, you know, it's not just growing up or it's not just growing pains.
00:32:57.000You are in the wrong body and you need to go mutilate yourself to feel like a whole person again.
00:33:04.000That's a terribly scary thing for a young teenager to go through.
00:33:08.000Tim Walz wants to take those kids away from their parents I think we ought to encourage the parents to make those kids safe and to help them deal with whatever they're dealing with, not steal them away from the people who love them the most.
00:33:20.000It's sick, but it's... It's not just sick, Charlie.
00:33:28.000You ask yourself, how can you be the governor?
00:33:31.000I mean, every protective instinct that I have as a father is, if I'm in a position of leadership, I'm going to fight back against the people who are trying to burn down my city.
00:33:41.000Or, I've got three little kids, I'm going to fight back against the people who are trying to take my children away from me because they got a weird idea in their head from social media.
00:33:50.000Or, I'm going to fight back against the people who are stealing the jobs of American workers or making it unaffordable for young Americans to buy a home.
00:33:58.000Tim Walz, every single time he gets an opportunity, he fights for the people who are harming American citizens.
00:34:04.000We need a president who's going to fight for American citizens.
00:34:06.000We just don't have that right now in this country.
00:34:38.000Vance stand for the children of this country against that horror that is happening to our children.
00:34:45.000So, expanding on that, J.D., I see some of these signs out here, which is one of the 20 planks of the new Republican platform, which is no men in women's sports.
00:35:04.000J.D., how did we get in a place where now this needs to be a policy position?
00:35:08.000And if Kamala Harris or Tim Walz took questions, maybe they'd have to answer for this.
00:35:13.000But they're okay with biological males competing in sports against females.
00:35:18.000Yeah, which is, first of all, it's so unfair to the girls.
00:35:21.000Sometimes they've competed for their entire lives to reach the height of their particular sport.
00:35:26.000And then they have to, you know, you've seen this in the swimming competitions or in the weightlifting competitions.
00:35:31.000They go up against a biological male who has advantages that are just so obvious and it's insulting to these girls, but it's also dangerous for the girls.
00:35:40.000And I, you know, of our three kids, we've got two boys and a girl.
00:35:43.000I really don't want my two-year-old to step into a competitive physical sport with a biological
00:36:28.000So this came up in the state of Ohio, and when I first heard it, I didn't believe it.
00:36:32.000That the Harris administration was threatening local school districts if they didn't go along With all of the gender and transgender craziness, they were going to take away free and reduced school lunch funding.
00:36:46.000That was the weapon that they were using.
00:36:48.000If you want your free and reduced lunch funding, then you need to do what we want you to do on the transgender stuff.
00:36:54.000What kind of a human being would be willing to take food out of the mouths of poor children because the local school district doesn't buy into Kamala Harris's values.
00:37:04.000That is really sick, and we don't need to be led by people like that.
00:37:07.000We need to be led by people who support American values, who, when a local school district says, we don't want Kamala Harris's values in our school district, let's make it easier for them to live their values and easier for them to protect their children, not steal money from poor kids because we want to force something down their throat.
00:37:32.000We had last month saving babies with preborn by providing ultrasounds.
00:37:36.000And we're doing again this year what we did last year.
00:37:38.000We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.
00:37:44.000As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, and we're not going to do nothing.
00:37:50.000Your gift to preborn will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.
00:39:13.000Well, maybe the best thing, not the very best thing, but a very good thing that I could say about the next presidency of Donald J. Trump is that he's going to make sure that people like Liz Cheney are laughed out of the Oval Office instead of rewarded because this is a person this is a person whose entire career has been about sending other people's children off to fight and die for her military conflicts and her ridiculous ideas that somehow we were going to turn Afghanistan
00:39:44.000A country that doesn't even have running water in a lot of places into a thriving liberal democracy and for that Liz Cheney was willing to kill thousands of your children.
00:40:52.000Yeah, you know, a couple different things.
00:40:53.000First of all, I'm asked all the time, how do you stop the crazy stuff that's going on in college campuses or sometimes even on America's city streets?
00:41:21.000Let's tear those things down and get the people in those places back to work.
00:41:28.000And you know, one of the things I love about President Trump's Israel policy, about his foreign policy period, Is that he's not just tough, he's smart.
00:41:37.000And you hear Republicans, we talk a lot about this, rightfully so.
00:41:46.000He conducted American diplomacy and he recognized that when America uses diplomacy, we sometimes get a lot more out of it than if we go and just send a bunch of Marines into a place that they shouldn't be to begin with.
00:43:42.000Let's say you don't have somebody who can provide that extra set of hands.
00:43:46.000What we've got to do is actually empower people to get trained in the skills that they need for the 21st century.
00:43:54.000We've got a lot of people who love kids, who would love to take care of kids, But they can't either because they don't have access to the education that they need or maybe more importantly because the state government says you're not allowed to take care of children unless you have some ridiculous certification that has nothing to do, nothing to do with taking care of kids.
00:44:12.000So empower people to get the skills they need.
00:44:15.000Don't force every early child care specialist to go and get a six-year college degree where they've got a whole lot of debt and Americans are much poorer because they're paying out the wazoo for daycare.
00:44:26.000Empower working families, empower people who want to do these things for a living, and that's what we got to do.
00:44:32.000All right, we have two more questions here.
00:44:34.000This one here, I really want to see, this is from Howard, I really want to see Donald Trump and you be successful.
00:44:42.000What can I do materially in the grassroots to make a difference?
00:44:46.000It's a great, another great question, and I'll answer it with something that a Senate colleague of mine, another great conservative, would say when he was out campaigning for me.
00:44:54.000He would say, I want you to go out and I want every single person in this room to vote 10 times.
00:45:03.000And because it's a Republican audience, people sort of shifted uneasily in their seats.
00:45:07.000And I mean, we are in Maricopa County though, Charlie.
00:45:10.000So, but people said, look, look, we don't, we're Republicans.
00:47:04.000Let me give three answers to that question, Charlie.
00:47:07.000So first of all, and some of the kind pastors that we met with earlier, thank you guys, and thanks for hosting us in this beautiful church.
00:47:14.000But they asked me this question, and I'll give a three-part answer just like I gave to them.
00:47:17.000Number one, the thing I most need is courage and wisdom.
00:47:22.000Wisdom to know the path and courage to walk the path.
00:47:25.000So if you can pray for that for me, I would appreciate it.
00:47:27.000We're out there doing You know, we're trying to do the Lord's work every day.
00:47:51.000I told my team, never make me follow my wife again, because, you know, you want to follow somebody who's worse than you, not better than you, and she just did such a good job, and I was so proud of her.
00:48:00.000But she needs straight—look, she's not a political person.
00:48:04.000You know, she said before I got involved, she said, well, I think politics, pretty much everybody's a scumbag, and, well, honey, you're right.
00:49:07.000We have a disastrous inflationary set of things going on that make it hard for people to afford a good life.
00:49:13.000But we still have, and I have learned this Very personally, the last six weeks, flying around the country, driving around the country, we have the best country on the face of the earth.
