00:00:43.000That is your portal to help support us.
00:00:46.000Our team, our researchers, our editors, the travel costs, everything around the production of the Charlie Kirk show.
00:00:53.000You know, with all the cancellation and all the bad guys coming after people that are trying to tell the truth, when you support us at charliekirk.com/slash support, you are saying no to cancel culture.
00:01:04.000You are saying no to the digital assassins.
00:01:58.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:10.000So yesterday I was in Seattle, Washington.
00:02:13.000Many of you might remember some of the drama that's been unfolding in the last week where I was going to speak at a church.
00:02:20.000And unfortunately, that event got canceled due to Antifa giving threats on how they will mobilize to the streets and use force to try and prevent my speaking in the Seattle metro area.
00:02:34.000The event was canceled, but I'm happy to report that Antifa lost.
00:02:40.000Because yesterday we still did two amazing events in the Seattle area.
00:02:46.000One at Pastor DJ's church, the house church, in Slohomish.
00:02:54.000We had a packed room, probably well over a thousand people.
00:02:58.000Then we went down to Edmonds, Washington, where the final count was nearly another thousand people.
00:03:06.000Two churches, and Antifa did everything they possibly could to try to disrupt us and try and interrupt our plans, but we won and they lost.
00:03:17.000A great lesson for all of you out there that might be a little bit afraid, a little bit intimidated by the threats of the far left, but understand that their bark is far worse than their bite.
00:03:32.000That when you stand for truth and you play offense, people will show up and you'll have a wonderful success story to tell.
00:03:42.000It might not just be about an event, it might be something else.
00:03:45.000So just happy to say that our visit to Seattle, Washington went very, very well.
00:03:51.000I want to highlight a very positive story here.
00:03:55.000You know, as I've been traveling the country, actually, it was just in North Dakota, like 10 days ago, to Seattle, to Fredericksburg, Texas, to Bastrop, Texas, to Bandera, Texas.
00:04:06.000People are asking me, Charlie, what do we do?
00:04:10.000What can we do, everyday people, to make a difference?
00:04:15.000So there were some elections in Texas this last weekend.
00:04:18.000They were mostly local elections and municipal elections.
00:04:21.000Not every single county and city had elections, but many did.
00:04:25.000One of the topics we've been talking about extensively on this program is this idea of critical race theory.
00:04:32.000Behind critical race theory is the idea that there are no such thing as individuals, that everything is racist, that we should get rid of science and math because they are nothing more than white constructs trying to reinforce the power of the Western patriarchy.
00:05:34.000And that's the way that critical race theorists describe their sinister, bigoted, racist ideology that cares about skin color and not on values or character or the spirit of human beings.
00:05:47.000But I'm just thrilled to report to you today that in this local election, the people that stood for traditional American values won with over 70% of the vote.
00:06:06.000The contest was not close, NBC News says.
00:06:08.000Candidates backed by the conservative South Lake Families PAC won every race by about 70 to 30 percent, including for those two school board positions, two city council seats, and mayor.
00:06:21.000More than 9,000 voters cast ballots, three times as many in similar contests in the past.
00:06:28.000So people say, Charlie, what do we do?
00:06:44.000And in Texas, which has become a new battleground, there was a question of: Are the people that have the big BLM signs outside of their home are they the majority?
00:06:56.000Instead, 70% of people in South Lake Texas rose up on a Saturday, more than 9,000 ballots cast.
00:07:07.000Three times, by the way, as many in similar contests in the past, where they said, we are not going to have our children learn to hate their country and hate themselves.
00:07:18.000This is a remarkable story to tell, a positive chapter.
00:07:26.000And so the question is: will this begin to spread across the country?
00:07:48.000It says here: the voters have come together in record-breaking numbers to restore unity.
00:07:53.000By a landslide vote, they don't want racially divisive critical race theory taught to their children or forced on their teachers.
00:08:00.000Voters agreed with my positive vision of our community and future is what Smith said.
00:08:06.000One of the people that ran for office, a prominent South Lake lawyer who clerked for Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, who defeated Ed Hernandez, a business consultant, to win a seat on the Carroll School Board.
00:08:22.000Parents need to rise up and they need to say, we are not going to have our children learn an anti-American philosophy, a bigoted, anti-American, just against the ethos of everything we care about.
00:09:16.000And this right here is a little bit of a litmus test.
00:09:18.000What do the people of South Lake feel about this?
00:09:21.000Well, with triple the turnout, in a landslide fashion, 70% of the people that showed up said, we still believe in America and we reject this sinister, racially motivated curriculum being pushed forward by this guy, Ed Hernandez.
00:09:48.000And the more we are able to put points on the board and take back terrain and show why we believe what we believe, that's how we are going to win.
00:09:59.000Another great story is in the sixth congressional district, Susan Wright and Jake Ellsley advanced to a runoff in Texas' sixth district, where Trump only won that district by three points in 2020.
00:10:14.000And two Republicans advanced to the runoff and the Democrats got clobbered in this special election.
00:10:22.000We are starting to see the leading indicators that 2022 is going to be an awful year for Democrats.
00:10:31.000We're starting to see that for every action, there will be an equal and opposite reaction.
00:10:54.000That's why I get my meat from goodranchers.com because their product is 100% American.
00:10:58.000When you buy your steak and chicken from Good Ranchers, not only are you getting amazing meat, but you're also supporting American farms.

00:13:23.000I struggle feeling like I could do more, be more to my two sons.
00:13:28.000And I struggle leaving the office when I feel there's so much more to do.
00:13:32.000I used to struggle with imposter syndrome, but at 36, I refuse to internalize misguided patriarchal ideas of what a woman can or should be.
00:13:43.000Misguided patriarchal ideas, and she's a cisgender.
00:15:29.000Julian Assange, regardless of your opinion of him, said it the best.
00:15:34.000We are living in a mediocracy where what is politically possible is defined by the media environment, by what happens and what we are seeing is defined by the people that are speaking to you and to your children.
00:15:48.000So, when you hear this central intelligence agency recruiting advertisement from a woman that says she's a cisgender Latinx person and that she tries to push back against the misguided patriarchy, how did that happen?
00:16:05.000What happened a long time ago, five years ago, because things happen quicker because of technology, when people who love their country and conservatives were not focused on the ideas that seemed they were on the fringe and they ever so gradually got into the mainstream.
00:16:25.000Noam Chomsky in the common good wrote that the smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but to allow very lively debate within a narrow section of that spectrum.
00:16:42.000What is politically possible is defined by the media environment.
00:16:47.000Limit the spectrum of which you are able to debate ideas.
00:16:50.000And now he's quoting Noam Chomsky, who's actually a communist and a professor at the University of Arizona, but he's right that whatever is politically possible is only that which the people in charge, the elites, find it favorable to their own agenda.
00:17:08.000So why would the CIA actually care about wokeism?
00:17:13.000Look, by now, you've all heard me talk about My Pillow and how Mike has done it again by introducing his MySlippers.
00:17:19.000Mike Lindell, he's got a lot of ambition.
00:17:44.000Maybe you want to buy the MyPillow, MyPillow.
00:17:46.000MyPillow slippers are so comfortable that you want to get some for the whole family.
00:17:50.000So go to mypillow.com and click on the Radio Listener Square and use promo code Kirk.
00:17:55.000You'll also get deep discounts on MyPillow products, including the Giza Dream bedsheets, the MyPillow mattress toppers, and MyPillow towel sets.
00:18:03.000Or call 800-875-0425 and use promo code Kirk.
00:18:08.000So why does the CIA care about critical race theory?
00:18:15.000What could possibly be the motives of a radical group of people that want to push forward these ideas?
00:18:23.000Well, the brilliance of critical race theory and wokeism as it is, it's one of the few ideas ever introduced to America that is popular and also self-destructive.
00:18:37.000Meaning that instead of actually having to destroy anything, the people who end up believing critical race theory do it for you.
00:18:47.000Well, for example, if you can get white upper middle class families believing that they are inherently racist, they will deconstruct the society for you because they've been convinced that their mere existence is not just a threat, but it is a scourge on society.
00:19:08.000And so we played the clip of the CIA trying to recruit people in just a very radical, almost like an infomercial, as if this was someone that was trying to recruit people to come to the University of Boston, not to the central intelligence agency.
00:19:28.000But quite honestly, what's the difference?
00:19:30.000The CIA hires college graduates from the most elite and woke universities across the country.
00:19:36.000You think they're going to just not have those ideas any longer?
00:19:40.000Why do you think Coca-Cola and Delta are acting like Democrat super PECs?
00:19:44.000It's because for the last five years, they've been hiring people that have gone to college, and we've sent way too many people to college in our country.
00:19:52.000And they have those radical activistic ideas, and then they employ them against the CEO of Delta or the CEO of Coca-Cola, James Quincy and Ed Bastion, or even the head of the Central Intelligence Agency.
00:20:06.000Now, we're fighting back against this.
00:20:09.000And we talked earlier about how in South Lake Texas, critical race theory was put on defense, that conservatives were playing offense.
00:20:22.000So, people like Nicole Hannah-Jones, who is a bigot, she has said that she wants critical race theory taught in basically every single school across the country.
00:20:34.000She wants the 1619 project to be the norm, the widely accepted curriculum in our nation.
00:20:43.000And so, rule number four in Saul Linsky's Rules for Radicals is something that the left does so unbelievably well.
00:20:53.000Now, if you don't know who Saulinsky is, Solinsky was a community activist and an author.
00:20:59.000He is the person that Hillary Clinton wrote her senior thesis about.
00:21:03.000Saw Linsky wrote a famous book called Rules for Radicals.
00:21:06.000It got very popular and famous in the Obama era because this is and continues to be the playbook of the American left, of the new left.
00:21:18.000In fact, Saul Linsky was a mentor of Barack Obama.
00:21:22.000Rules for Radicals is dedicated to somebody.
00:21:26.000Rules for Radicals is dedicated to Lucifer, who, according to Saul Linsky, was the first ever radical rebel, I should say.
00:21:36.000Saul Linsky was someone who was focused on training young communists and socialists on how to overtake the country.
00:21:49.000So he created this book, Rules for Radicals, a pragmatic primer for realistic radicals.
00:21:56.000We've talked about this a lot on our program, but it's important to repeat it.
00:22:00.000So, Nicole Hannah Jones is a staff writer for the New York Times.
00:22:05.000She might as well be Nathan Bedford Forrest.
00:22:12.000She might as well be John C. Calhoun, for her beliefs on race are so backwards, so dangerous, and so immoral.
00:22:20.000But her new way now to try and push back against what is happening, because she knows that the people aren't on her side.
00:22:28.000She preemptively strikes the American people with BLM Incorporated 1619 Project and billions of dollars.
00:22:52.000Because this is fundamentally a free speech issue.
00:22:55.000If you look at the rhetoric of Senator McConnell and state legislators all across the country that are trying to get bills passed to prohibit the teaching of the 1619 project, it's not about the facts of history.
00:23:08.000It's about trying to prohibit the teaching of ideas that they don't like.
00:23:13.000Ah, you see, now the left are big ambassadors of free speech.
00:23:18.000You see, when convenient, all of a sudden we now have to be lectured on cable television from the very people that deploy the Antifa forces that nearly prevented me from speaking at beautiful Westgate Chapel at Alec Rowland's Church or at Pastor DJ's Church at House Ministries up in Snohomish, Washington.
00:23:40.000No, now they are ambassadors of free speech.
00:23:42.000They don't believe in freedom of speech.
00:23:43.000what they're doing is brilliant and it's so predictable.
00:23:47.000We've talked about this in our program.
00:23:49.000Is the moment that all of a sudden they get the pushback, go quote, this is Saul Linsky, make the enemy live up to its own book of rules, number four.
00:23:59.000So now all of a sudden conservatives are going to be a little bit disarmed.
00:24:03.000Yeah, maybe we do believe in freedom of speech.
00:24:09.000Now, of course, we believe in freedom of speech, obviously.
00:24:12.000I'm not calling for Nicole Hannah-Jones to be taken off television or taken out of decent society for holding those ideas.
00:24:19.000But in an educational environment, of course, you're going to be selective in what ideas you allow and what ideas you don't allow.
00:24:27.000For example, if someone all of a sudden introduced in a school board saying, you know, what we need is Margaret Sanger eugenics to be taught in schools across the country.
00:24:40.000Many parents would rightly rise up and say, no, we do not want our children to be taught about Margaret Sanger's eugenics as fact.
00:24:50.000Now, would that be them hating freedom of speech?
00:24:54.000That would instead being selective, focused, and precise in the ideas that they want instilled into their children.
00:25:01.000Education comes from a Latin word to lead forth.
00:25:04.000If we are not leading forth our children correctly, then the nation will self-destruct.
00:25:11.000But this is now where they're going to go with this, that any pushback that comes against critical race theory or the woke industrial complex, they'll say, oh, I thought you guys were all for freedom of speech.
00:25:22.000We believe that the woke industrial complex and all these ideas should be given a fair hearing constitutionally and governmentally.
00:25:31.000But when it comes to the passing down of values and ideas and morals to our children, excuse me when I'm going to be somewhat selective when ideas that are not just close, but they are extensions of the same sort of ideology that the Civil Rights Act repudiated and pushed back against.
00:25:59.000You want to just see the type of activists our universities are creating, the type of people that then go to lead our corporations.
00:26:07.000Cut for University of Minnesota Student Association leader Lauren Myers saying that you should call police officers with fake complaints to make their lives awful, annoy them, use up their resources and make their officers show up to something.
00:26:35.000I don't know if Amy know, Morgan, you mentioned stuff with UMPD.
00:26:40.000Like use up their resources, make their officers show up to something.
00:26:48.000So that's a student government leader who's saying that activists at the University of Minnesota should use their time, their energy to try and misdirect police officers.
00:26:59.000Don't, you know, of course, don't go after the rapists or the murderers or the drug traffickers.
00:27:03.000Instead, she wants to create false events to deploy and direct police assets away from things that are actually happening in the local community.
00:27:18.000This is a trend that has happened on campuses for years.
00:27:26.000And Cut 15, you see Representative Jaya Paul, who responded to James Carville statement where James Carville came out and said, we got to stop it with this wokeness.
00:27:34.000And Representative Jayapaul responded with a mountain of gibberish, quite honestly.
00:29:27.000But the fact that they are now adjusting, which is making the enemy live up to its own book of rules, shows that they know these ideas are unpopular, which is why James Carville is saying that.
00:29:37.000It's why Representative Jayapal, in a mountain of gibberish, has to try to justify this.
00:30:04.000Having your life exposed for others to see was once something only celebrities worried about.
00:30:09.000But in an era where everyone is online, everyone is a public figure.
00:30:12.000To keep my data private when I go online, I always turn on ExpressVPN.
00:30:16.000Did you know that there are hundreds of data brokers out there whose sole business is to buy and sell your data?
00:30:21.000The worst part is they don't have to tell you who they're selling it to or get your consent.
00:30:25.000One of the data points is your IP address.
00:30:28.000Data harvesters use your IP address to uniquely identify you and your location.
00:30:32.000But with ExpressVPN, my connection gets rerouted through an encrypted server and my IP address is masked.
00:30:38.000Every time I turn on ExpressVPN, I'm given a random IP address shared by other ExpressVPN customers.
00:30:44.000That makes it more difficult for third parties to identify me and harvest my data.
00:30:48.000And the best part is how ExpressVPN, how easy it is to use.
00:30:51.000No matter what device you're on, phone or laptop, maybe smart TV.
00:30:55.000So if you like me and you believe that your data is your business, go to expressvpn.com slash Charlie and get three extra months free, E-X-P-R-E-S-S-V-P-N.com slash Charlie.
00:31:31.000I have a window into the collective wisdom of millions of people.
00:31:35.000It's our email, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:31:38.000We get some wacky stuff every so often, but my goodness, we get some awesome, wise pieces of commentary of people that just email us their thoughts and what they're reading, what they're seeing.
00:31:53.000And the number one piece of feedback we receive right now from the questions across the country and in our email, freedom at charliekirk.com, is Charlie, what is going on in Arizona and are we going to fix our elections?
00:32:05.000It's the number one piece of feedback.
00:32:07.000In fact, yesterday at the House Church, a man with an orange hat said, Charlie, I and so many others believe that our elections are broken and we may never vote again.
00:32:19.000By the way, I don't think that's a good idea.
00:33:56.000Arizona is traditionally a Republican state.
00:33:58.000There are more registered Republicans than Democrats in Arizona.
00:34:02.000So wouldn't Sydney McCain be in favor of getting to the bottom of how much that she believes Joe Biden won by?
00:34:09.000Wouldn't it be one of the greatest, most public displays of humiliation if after this audit, she's able to prove that there was nothing wrong, everything was perfect and seamless, no irregularities?
00:34:20.000Wouldn't that only be more demoralizing to Republicans and a shot in the arm for Democrats?
00:34:26.000They realize that they won in historic fashion?
00:34:30.000Why is it that the Democrats are so concerned every single time there is any sort of effort to try to restore election integrity?
00:34:39.000Why is it that they don't want the facts?
00:34:42.000The facts that are just impartial and should be able to point you to an objective conclusion.
00:34:49.000Now you could come up with your own answer there.
00:34:52.000But Sidney McCain calls this ludicrous.
00:34:55.000But I can tell you that when they start knocking on doors and looking at ballots and doing signature verification, I know plenty of people in Arizona that got ballots they didn't request.
00:35:03.000I know plenty of people in Arizona that had voting centers changed all throughout the state of Arizona, especially in Maricopa County.
00:35:09.000Why is it that Arizona took a week and a half to count all of its ballots?
00:35:13.000These are legitimate questions that are worthy of answers.
00:35:20.000And for anyone out there that is concerned about election integrity, this is the forefront of that fight in Arizona.
00:35:32.000And again, I want to reiterate what we just said, saying that we will verify every single last vote.
00:35:41.000When you have a deluge of mail in ballots, when you have a historic amount of people voting by mail with new and last-minute voter registrations, and you don't even look into it at all, people are not going to trust the system and they won't trust the system the leaders puts in place.
00:35:57.000So we're going to keep a very, very close eye on that.
00:36:00.000Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
