00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, Crossfire MAGA 2024.
00:00:04.000 You are living through the 2024 plan to take people off the chessboard.
00:00:09.000 It's pretty remarkable.
00:00:10.000 Ben Bongino, Tucker, Trump.
00:00:13.000 We have never seen anything like this.

00:00:35.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:36.000 Here we go.
00:00:37.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:38.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:00:40.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:44.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:47.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:48.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:49.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:00:56.000 Turning point USA.
00:00:58.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:06.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:09.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:18.000 Many of you know this quote, and you probably could say it.
00:01:23.000 These are the times that try men's souls.
00:01:25.000 But what comes after that?
00:01:28.000 The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in the crisis, shrink from the service of their country.
00:01:34.000 But he stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
00:01:38.000 Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered.
00:01:42.000 And yet we have this consolation with us that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
00:01:47.000 What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.
00:01:51.000 It is dearness only that gives everything its value.
00:01:54.000 Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods.
00:01:58.000 And it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated.
00:02:04.000 In the document American Crisis by the author of Common Sense Thomas Paine, but let's focus on that second sentence.
00:02:12.000 The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will shrink from service of their country.
00:02:18.000 That is most of the Republican Party.
00:02:20.000 Most of the Republican Party does not have the stomach.
00:02:22.000 They don't have the gut.
00:02:23.000 They do not have the fortitude.
00:02:24.000 They do not have the backbone, the spine for what we're about to go through right now and what we are living through.
00:02:30.000 They are living in willful ignorance.
00:02:34.000 They are hypnotized by their own talking points.
00:02:38.000 We kind of call it happy talk here.
00:02:40.000 As we've said before, the country we grew up in, that country no longer exists.
00:02:46.000 The Vichy French, the people that are actively collaborating with the regime, which is part of the Republican Party, they want nothing to do with what we're about to talk about this hour.
00:02:58.000 Breaking yesterday, it's almost certain that Donald Trump is going to be indicted by the federal government, the Department of Justice, for violations of the Espionage Act for presidential records keeping.
00:03:10.000 Yeah, we'll talk about how silly this is, how baseless this is, how, of course, other people, other former presidents, former Secretary of State, violated these laws and these precautions in far greater detail.
00:03:25.000 But that's not really what's going on here.
00:03:27.000 We know that.
00:03:29.000 You show me the man, I'll show you the crime.
00:03:31.000 This is Crossfire MAGA 2024.
00:03:33.000 This is bigger than even Trump.
00:03:35.000 Let's just remember what we are seeing in just the last 60 days.
00:03:41.000 Breaking news yesterday shows that Fox News is holding the line and they want Tucker Carlson to be benched through 2025.
00:03:49.000 They sent him a cease and desist for the Twitter video.
00:03:53.000 They want Tucker completely on the sidelines.
00:03:56.000 Can't put Tucker Carlson in prison, but you can muzzle him where he is not allowed to sing anything for a breach of contract.
00:04:03.000 Steve Bannon is likely to go to prison in the next couple weeks.
00:04:07.000 Those are his words, not my words, for four months.
00:04:09.000 Got to bench him and the whole war room posse.
00:04:12.000 Dan Bongino out at Fox at his top-rated show and his program as a weekend show.
00:04:17.000 James O'Keefe out at Project Veritas and is now being sued by Project Veritas.
00:04:23.000 Donald Trump is going to be indicted again.
00:04:26.000 Now, Department of Justice fighting charges in New York.
00:04:29.000 Georgia's going to come as well.
00:04:31.000 You can add to the list, of course, the targeting of Rudy Giuliani, targeting of Roger Stone, Catholics being spied on by the FBI, moms and dads being called domestic terrorists, Matt Taibbi being targeted by the Internal Revenue Service, meme makers going to prison, Douglas Mackey, the Soviet-style persecution of January 6ers.
00:04:55.000 Ken Paxton is being impeached.
00:04:57.000 You see what's really going on here?
00:04:58.000 The intel agencies being the central nervous system of the regime.
00:05:05.000 This is an all-out Blitzkrieg.
00:05:07.000 This is no longer a game.
00:05:09.000 This is no longer a policy debate.
00:05:12.000 This is not about corporate tax policy.
00:05:14.000 And this is not about, well, you know, I think that these regulations is what we know.
00:05:19.000 Now, this is about a question of: is this Constitution still valid?
00:05:23.000 Is the American project going to continue?
00:05:26.000 These are existential questions.
00:05:29.000 The Republican Party is filled with, as Thomas Paine would say, summer soldiers and sunshine patriots who shrink from the service of their country.
00:05:40.000 And I just want to give a disclaimer, and we have to caution people at our events and our broadcasts.
00:05:46.000 You might be too weak for this moment.
00:05:50.000 You probably can't handle this.
00:05:52.000 Go find something else to do.
00:05:55.000 Just get fat and happy, get drunk, smoke a bunch of weed.
00:06:00.000 We're going to go win this thing.
00:06:01.000 If you don't have the stomach or the intestinal fortitude to go through what we're living through, get out of the game.
00:06:09.000 I don't want to hear your cattle walling.
00:06:11.000 I don't want to hear your complaining.
00:06:12.000 I don't want to hear your yakking.
00:06:15.000 Oh, well, Charlie, you know, we have to be better listeners, like Sunshine Patriot Doug Bergum or Mike Pence, which is, you know, we'll play some tape here.
00:06:23.000 It's just, it makes me sick to my stomach, some of the stuff he's saying.
00:06:27.000 Oh, well, I don't think the Republican Party has changed.
00:06:30.000 They are blitz-krieging the entire American right.
00:06:34.000 And we have people running for the presidency talking us about tax policy.
00:06:41.000 You got Chris Christie going on TV calling Donald Trump a Putin puppet.
00:06:45.000 And it's not just about Trump.
00:06:47.000 You see it with Tucker and Ubannon.
00:06:48.000 And as I see Bongino and O'Keefe, you say, oh, my goodness, look at this constellation of the most powerful, most effective voices that are being picked off one by one.
00:06:59.000 But why wouldn't the regime and the deep state do this?
00:07:02.000 There is nothing holding them accountable.
00:07:04.000 There is not a Republican attorney general across the country that has indicted BLM for their flagrant criminal activity for violating charitable law.
00:07:14.000 You only have one side fighting because we are staffed with sunshine patriots, as Thomas Paine warned us about.
00:07:22.000 People that do not want to acknowledge and admit that the Rubicon has been crossed, that we are in a different state of affairs.
00:07:32.000 That fine, you could just indict a former president, but of course, you can't go after Bill Clinton for flying on Lolita Express with Jeffrey Epstein and underage girls.
00:07:41.000 No.
00:07:42.000 You can't go after Hillary Clinton for smashing cell phones and destroying documents.
00:07:47.000 You can't go after Hunter Biden for being a traitor to the United States alongside Joe Biden.
00:07:53.000 No, no, no, no.
00:07:54.000 There's only one side that can receive this kind of persecution.
00:07:59.000 But this is expected.
00:08:02.000 We should expect them to come after us this hard.
00:08:06.000 What is infuriating is the lack of response by the party that's supposed to defend us.
00:08:13.000 We're going to talk about why they hate Trump.
00:08:16.000 We're going to talk about how they actually hate your values.
00:08:19.000 They hate your behaviors.
00:08:21.000 They hate you.
00:08:22.000 And they want to just try to put him on a Soviet-style show trial like Darkness at Noon by Arthur Kessler and to make an example of him and to mock him and to try to thwart and to stunt further activism.
00:08:37.000 They want to try to demoralize you where the voices that you resonate with, like Tucker Carlson and Bannon and Bongino, where the investigative reporters who uncover this darkness are mired in lawsuits.
00:08:49.000 This is all part of a broader strategy.
00:08:52.000 Are we going to now live as citizens or serfs?
00:08:56.000 That's the question.
00:08:58.000 This is all macro playing out.
00:09:00.000 Yeah, it's about Trump.
00:09:01.000 Yes, it's about his war on neoliberalism.
00:09:04.000 This is a much bigger picture, though, and it is a binary.
00:09:07.000 Do we live as citizens or do we live as serfs?
00:09:10.000 Do you live as serfs or the sovereign?
00:09:13.000 It's that simple.
00:09:14.000 Pick your side.
00:09:16.000 And still, I get Republicans that, you know, I had a guy come up to the other day.
00:09:20.000 They said, you know, I think Chris Christie would be a great president.
00:09:22.000 He has a lot to say.
00:09:23.000 It's time for us to unite as a country.
00:09:25.000 And I just told this guy off.
00:09:27.000 And I was just going for a walk around and I was just clearing my head.
00:09:30.000 And this guy comes up to me.
00:09:32.000 I said, with all possible due respect, you should go move out of the country, go to Barbados.
00:09:39.000 We're going to win this thing.
00:09:41.000 You are totally useless right now for what we're living through.
00:09:46.000 You're living in some sort of narnia scenario.
00:09:50.000 I mean, you have the same sort of delusion that a trans person is living under.
00:09:53.000 Same sort of thing.
00:09:55.000 If you think all of a sudden that what we need to do is unify the country around a uniparty regime that is acting like a Pullet Bureau against political dissonance.
00:10:03.000 Yeah, this is end of the Republic style stuff.
00:10:06.000 So what is it talking about?
00:10:06.000 We're not talking about action items, but you have to make a commitment.
00:10:09.000 I know many of you have in this audience, but some of you are probably turning the dial.
00:10:12.000 You're like, oh, this is too much.
00:10:13.000 I can't stand it.
00:10:15.000 You're a sunshine patriot.
00:10:17.000 God bless you.
00:10:18.000 We'll tell you when we win.
00:10:20.000 Go get fat, happy, drunk, and high.
00:10:23.000 And we're going to get in the trenches and we're going to win this thing.
00:10:27.000 Look, I can't believe the dire headlines we're facing in the world today.
00:10:30.000 Everywhere you look, things are falling apart.
00:10:32.000 And that's why the smartest investment you can make right now is in your family's food security.
00:10:37.000 The reality is you might not be able to find food when the next disaster strikes.
00:10:41.000 Grocery stores will be empty because roads will be closed and trucks won't be able to make deliveries.
00:10:45.000 When that happens, you need emergency food in full supply.
00:10:48.000 That's why I urge you to grab a three-month emergency food kit from MyPatriot Supply, the nation's largest preparedness company.
00:10:55.000 When you order today, you'll save $200 on each kit you need.
00:10:58.000 Having these kits means your family will stay fed while others stand in food lines.
00:11:02.000 Do not delay.
00:11:03.000 Order your three-month emergency food kit and save $200 per kit.
00:11:06.000 It's easy to order.
00:11:07.000 Go to preparewithkirk.com.
00:11:08.000 You'll get fast and free shipping too.
00:11:10.000 Do this today or you'll regret it tomorrow.
00:11:12.000 That is preparewithkirk.com.
00:11:14.000 Preparewithkirk.com.
00:11:16.000 Order your three-month emergency food kit and save $200 per kit.
00:11:20.000 That is preparewithkirk.com.
00:11:22.000 Do this today or you'll regret it tomorrow.
00:11:23.000 Preparewithkirk.com.
00:11:27.000 Fox News can confirm that federal prosecutors have notified Donald Trump's legal team that the former president is a target, a target of a criminal investigation and the handling of classified material.
00:11:40.000 This dramatic move potentially sets the stage for an indictment.
00:11:44.000 Sets the stage for an indictment.
00:11:47.000 Now, we're receiving hundreds of emails right now of people that say, Charlie, I don't like this tone.
00:11:53.000 I'm not ready for this.
00:11:54.000 Someone says, Charlie, I think you're over-exaggerating.
00:11:57.000 I'm not ready.
00:11:58.000 That's okay.
00:11:58.000 It's time to divide the lines.
00:11:59.000 You waste the time, honestly.
00:12:02.000 If your attitude is, hey, this is too much for me.
00:12:05.000 I don't recognize this country.
00:12:07.000 Then, yes, you are what Thomas Paine cautioned us against.
00:12:10.000 Again, nothing against you.
00:12:12.000 You're just a coward.
00:12:14.000 And you hope that things can be solved just through buying a bunch of pillows.
00:12:19.000 And by the way, you should go to mypillow.com, promo code Kirk.
00:12:23.000 It's going to take a lot more than that.
00:12:25.000 So let's really analyze what's going on here.
00:12:27.000 Okay, let's get to the facts.
00:12:28.000 Donald Trump is going to be indicted by the Department of Justice almost a certainty at this point.
00:12:32.000 Tucker is benched, Bannon going to prison, Bongino out at Fox.
00:12:36.000 Let me ask you a question: who has the left lost in the last 18 months?
00:12:39.000 Can you name me a single media figure or top politician on the left that has been taken off the chessboard?
00:12:46.000 Just name one.
00:12:48.000 Has BLM been indicted?
00:12:49.000 Clinton Global Initiative?
00:12:51.000 Anthony Fauci, Rochelle Walensky?
00:12:56.000 Maybe Andrew Cuomo.
00:12:58.000 But then is this the Democrat for a Democrat swap?
00:13:00.000 And that was about two years ago.
00:13:03.000 How about the people that the left really counts on?
00:13:05.000 But they have a Borg type mentality.
00:13:07.000 They'll just replace it.
00:13:08.000 So who is orchestrating all of this?
00:13:11.000 The North Star, the fulcrum of the Trump story, is surrounded, is not surrounded, is centered, is a better word for it by one piece of 20-second commentary on MSNBC.
00:13:29.000 The Trump story, the MAGA movement, will be defined.
00:13:33.000 The story will be written by either he gets defeated or he defeats the intel agencies.
00:13:40.000 One clip showed the whole hand.
00:13:43.000 Talking like a mob boss in somewhat coded, cryptic language, Chuck Hugh Schumer joined Rachel Maddow and he told you the whole ballgame.
00:13:54.000 Now, mind you, at the time, crossfire hurricane was still going on.
00:13:58.000 They were still spying on Donald Trump and they were ramping up the fake Mueller investigation and the Russia hoax.
00:14:05.000 This was all during ramp up.
00:14:06.000 This is January 2017.
00:14:09.000 But at this point, Chuck Schumer said something he probably should not have said.
00:14:14.000 He showed all of his cards, which is: you wage war on the Intel agencies.
00:14:19.000 They have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you.
00:14:22.000 And for a shrewd businessman, allegedly shrewd businessman, he's not being very smart.
00:14:27.000 And that right there was the Lexington and Concord moment of a single person, Donald Trump, who had the courage to call out the Intel oligarchy that has been running our country.
00:14:44.000 The Intel oligarchy that spies on us, infiltrates our political groups.
00:14:50.000 This was the Lexington and Concord moment, the shot heard around the world.
00:14:56.000 And they have not forgotten.
00:14:58.000 They were never held accountable for Crossfire Hurricane.
00:15:00.000 Yeah, they got a Durham report.
00:15:02.000 How many people are in jail?
00:15:03.000 How many people lost their pensions?
00:15:04.000 They all have cable news contracts and they're treated better than ever before.
00:15:08.000 Yeah, they abused FISA.
00:15:10.000 So what?
00:15:11.000 Christopher Ray still has a golf stream to go to the Adirondacks.
00:15:15.000 Cut 89.
00:15:16.000 This here is the centerpiece.
00:15:20.000 You cannot take your eyes off of this because everything you're seeing is focused on what Chuck Schumer revealed days before Donald Trump was sworn in as president.
00:15:30.000 Play Cut 89.
00:15:32.000 Take on the intelligence community.
00:15:34.000 They have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you.
00:15:37.000 So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he's being really dumb to do this.
00:15:43.000 What do you think the intelligence community would do if they were moving?
00:15:45.000 I don't know, but from what I am told, they are very upset with how he has treated them and talked about them.
00:15:53.000 Very upset.
00:15:54.000 They have not stopped.
00:15:58.000 They plot and they plan.
00:16:00.000 They are literally a government within the government.
00:16:04.000 Dwight D. Eisenhower warned us about this.
00:16:07.000 The North Star, all of this is in symmetry and harmony.
00:16:13.000 I guarantee you that Alvin Bragg, through cryptic messages or through messengers, is working in harmony with Jack Smith.
00:16:25.000 Alvin Bragg was the Overton window mover.
00:16:29.000 Have the radical Marxist from New York move the Overton window where no longer people can say it's unprecedented to indict a former president, created the space for Jack Smith.
00:16:40.000 We're just getting started, everybody.
00:16:42.000 I hope you're ready.
00:16:46.000 All right, I got an important thing to share with you.
00:16:48.000 You are probably tired about all these left-wing progressive companies, and you're probably exhausted with trying to keep up with all their virtue signaling and their woke nonsense.
00:16:58.000 It's a question, right?
00:16:59.000 Why has corporate America decided to say we hate you to their customers?
00:17:04.000 I mean, I see Adidas.
00:17:05.000 Adidas might as well have a big sign that says, we hate you.
00:17:11.000 Look, progressive left-wing companies are taking over the market, and it's time for us to fight back.
00:17:17.000 I want to tell you about a company I really care about, run by a friend of mine who's a great American, and they're growing, and they need your help, and it's very important, okay?
00:17:26.000 Look, we don't have to fund these companies, the left-wing companies.
00:17:29.000 We finally have an alternative, public square.
00:17:33.000 We have a solution.
00:17:34.000 I hear from people all the time: Charlie, how do we fight back?

00:19:08.000 Okay, I want to play some more tape here to kind of just give you the bigger picture.
00:19:13.000 When you have people running for the presidency for the opposition party, there should be a message sent that it's unacceptable to use the power of the government to go after a former president.
00:19:28.000 Never been done in American history.
00:19:30.000 But instead, you have the sunshine patriot and summer soldier, right?
00:19:36.000 Like Chris Christie sitting on the beach.
00:19:38.000 That's summer soldier.
00:19:42.000 Instead of Chris Christie using his sharp tongue and his New Jersey, I'm a tough guy attitude, he's going and saying that Donald Trump's issues is self-inflicted.
00:19:56.000 And do you know what?
00:19:57.000 I actually agree with him.
00:20:00.000 I do agree in one sense.
00:20:02.000 Let's play this tape, but I think we're actually 180 degrees opposite of what we mean by it.
00:20:09.000 Play cut 82.
00:20:11.000 Well, look, I don't know, Brian, exactly what they're going to find and what's going to come in any indictment that may come.
00:20:18.000 But I will say this.
00:20:20.000 The problem with all this is that it's self-inflicted.
00:20:23.000 You know, in the end, I don't know that the government even knew that Joe Biden had those documents or not, but they did know Donald Trump did.
00:20:30.000 And in fact, asked for them voluntarily for over a year and a quarter.
00:20:36.000 He says these are self-inflicted.
00:20:38.000 I agree.
00:20:38.000 This is self-inflicted.
00:20:40.000 Donald Trump, he could have been like George W. Bush.
00:20:44.000 Donald Trump made a decision.
00:20:46.000 It's self-inflicted in the way where he ran into the fire.
00:20:49.000 He ran into the intel agencies.
00:20:52.000 You're right, Chris Christie.
00:20:54.000 Donald Trump could have been a feckless, uniparty, neoliberal coward the moment he became president.
00:21:02.000 Donald Trump could have saw Chuck Hugh Schumer on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow and said, oh boy, maybe this whole America first thing is not for me.
00:21:10.000 Just keep the borders open.
00:21:11.000 Let's go invade Tajikistan.
00:21:14.000 Let's let them trans the kids.
00:21:16.000 I'm done.
00:21:17.000 I'm afraid.
00:21:18.000 It's not the document thing is a waste of rations.
00:21:22.000 That is a waste of conversation.
00:21:24.000 It is such a silly indictment.
00:21:26.000 Presidential Records Act, other presidents, I don't even want to waste oxygen on it.
00:21:30.000 The details, I'm sure we'll have other people talk about.
00:21:32.000 That's not what this is about, okay?
00:21:34.000 They will contort the legal code.
00:21:36.000 They will tamper with witnesses.
00:21:38.000 They'll intimidate people, which by the way, they're trying to get up to that, to try to use witnesses against one another.
00:21:42.000 They're treating this like a mob case.
00:21:44.000 That's not what it's about.
00:21:45.000 What this is really about when Chris Christie is talking about self-inflicted is Donald Trump did the unusual, unexpected, and threatening course of action.
00:21:59.000 He actually decided to represent the American people when he became president.
00:22:04.000 So that is self-inflicted.
00:22:08.000 Donald Trump was courageous enough to say, yeah, we're going to get rid of NAFTA.
00:22:13.000 We're going to get out of the Paris Climate Accord.
00:22:15.000 We're going to scale down the war in Afghanistan.
00:22:18.000 I'm going to actually do a deal with Putin.
00:22:20.000 We're going to make ourselves energy independent.
00:22:23.000 We're going to move that embassy to Jerusalem, even though every chattering intel classes can't do that, can't do that, can't do that.
00:22:29.000 We're going to build a wall.
00:22:31.000 So yes, Chris Christie, it is self-inflicted.
00:22:34.000 Because if Donald Trump would have became president and said, I solemnly swear, and he would have been a Bush uniparty neoliberal puppet, and he would have just calmed it all down and would have done a little thing here or there and would have run to the middle and would have been a Willard Mitt Romney private equity.
00:22:54.000 Let's just ship our jobs to China and I'm going to manage the decline of America.
00:22:58.000 Donald Trump would not be indicted by the DOJ.
00:23:03.000 If Donald Trump would have done a deal with the devil, if Donald Trump would have become more like Paul Ryan with an overly aggressive Twitter feed, none of this would be happening.
00:23:14.000 So in that case, Chris Christie is right.
00:23:17.000 It is self-inflicted because he cared about you.
00:23:21.000 Because Donald Trump, when he became president, cared about the American people.
00:23:26.000 He cared about the plumber and the electrician and the welder, the member of the muscular class that was being crushed by the Leviathan.
00:23:35.000 For a man that gets accused by everybody by being, oh, he's egotistical and narcissistic and all of this.
00:23:42.000 If that's really the case, why didn't he become a weak-kneed vanilla moderate and betray all of his campaign promises to preserve himself when he was president?
00:23:53.000 That's what George W. Bush did.
00:23:56.000 That's what basically every other Republican has done when they get elected office.
00:24:00.000 They do what the intel agencies tell them to do.
00:24:02.000 Donald Trump waged all out war on the untouchable, the actual sovereign of our government, which is the FBI, the CIA, the Department of Justice, all of these unchecked, unelected fourth branch of government, deep state, treacherous actors.
00:24:21.000 And now they're going to seek retribution against him and anybody that is remotely associated with him.
00:24:28.000 They have a globalist plan to keep the borders wide open, to keep the shadow government in place, to keep Zelensky's flow of money coming, to keep big tech untouched.
00:24:38.000 And Trump is a vessel to a broader worldview that he has put on his shoulders that they have to try to crush.
00:24:47.000 And that worldview is about American strength, about priorities, about nationalism, about families, about parents, about traditional, proven, ordinary values.
00:25:03.000 And you can see here, running for the presidency, his former vice president, Mike Pence, he's telling you: look, I know we've heard that the party has changed, but we're going to test that theory, Mike Pence says.
00:25:18.000 Talking about how we're the arsenal of democracy.
00:25:22.000 No, we're the arsenal of gayness.
00:25:25.000 That's what we're exporting.
00:25:26.000 We're not exporting citizen-led government.
00:25:28.000 We're exporting our trans values with gay pride flags on our embassies.
00:25:34.000 Something that I actually think Mike Pence used to fight against.
00:25:37.000 You think that the CIA, and this is not some exaggeration, the Central Intelligence Agency has just put out a tweet that says CIA's 2023 theme for Pride Month, and they have a whole picture of the entrance to Langley, Virginia, in a rainbow coloration.
00:25:55.000 While Mike Pence should be getting fired up and looking into the camera and saying, you don't do this to a former president, he's swimming and swan and doing the kind of Indiana Hoosier thing.
00:26:11.000 I don't know if the party has changed.
00:26:13.000 Oh, the party's changed, pal.
00:26:15.000 Big time.
00:26:16.000 It has changed fundamentally.
00:26:18.000 It's also changed for the better.
00:26:20.000 This is a party that is not going to get railroaded by these Marxist degenerates.
00:26:24.000 This is a party that's grassroots, that understands the stakes and the games.
00:26:28.000 This is a party that could see a fraud from a mile away.
00:26:31.000 This is a party that asks questions.
00:26:33.000 This is a party that's informed.
00:26:34.000 This is a party that is awoken.
00:26:36.000 This is not a party that just sits idly by and says, Yeah, arsenal of democracy.
00:26:42.000 That Zelensky guy is Churchill.
00:26:44.000 The Republican base is smarter than that.
00:26:47.000 PlayCut 88.
00:26:49.000 Look, I know there's talk about how the party has changed, but look, we're going to test that theory.
00:26:56.000 I really believe this is still a conservative party.
00:26:58.000 As I said today, while others in the field, including my former running mate, are walking away from America's role as leader of the free world, the arsenal of democracy.
00:27:08.000 I really do believe that Republicans still stand for a strong defense and a strong American presence on the world stage.
00:27:15.000 Yeah, I mean, this is the type of sunshine patriot.
00:27:18.000 If I were just to look at a post, again, he's a Mike Pence is an ethical guy by everything I've heard.
00:27:22.000 He's loyally married to his wife.
00:27:24.000 He deserves credit for that.
00:27:25.000 He, all that good stuff.
00:27:26.000 Go be a pastor.
00:27:27.000 You're a sunshine patriot, man.
00:27:29.000 Go lead a revival in southern Indiana and preach the word of God.
00:27:33.000 Get out of this arena.
00:27:34.000 Talking about arsenal, democracy, the Republican Party has changed.
00:27:37.000 We are in a metaphorical knife fight for our republic right now.
00:27:41.000 These savages and cockroaches are taking everybody out one by one, and I got to be lectured about us being an arsenal of democracy.
00:27:48.000 How about this?
00:27:48.000 Let's bring some of that spirit back here domestically.
00:27:52.000 James Comey, Intel agency spokesperson, who obviously is still in harmony with current FBI Christopher Wray, who obviously has people staffed all throughout the fifth floor in the J. Edgar Hoover Building in downtown D.C. He's broadcasting the play, and you are living through the Crossfire Hurricane equivalent.
00:28:13.000 It's called Crossfire MAGA, but it's different.
00:28:15.000 They've changed their playbook.
00:28:17.000 This is not just, oh, Carter Page, Faisal Warren, Hillary Clinton, DNC.
00:28:21.000 That was too sloppy.
00:28:22.000 That was too detectable.
00:28:23.000 Now the Intel agencies are operating subterranean and preemptively.
00:28:28.000 They cannot allow 2016 to happen again.
00:28:31.000 2020 was about mass mail and balloting, Zuckerboxes.
00:28:35.000 They deployed Fauci.
00:28:36.000 He did his service to the regime.
00:28:38.000 They had Rochelle Walensky, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, non-stop propaganda of death counts.
00:28:44.000 They held Zuckerberg hostage because of an FTC complaints that he would clamp down on information.
00:28:50.000 They had Twitter doing whatever they wanted via Yole Roth and the tabletop exercise Aspen Institute.
00:28:56.000 So now you're living to the next iteration.
00:28:58.000 This one is hyper-aggressive and it's preemptive.
00:29:01.000 This is a preemptive strike.
00:29:03.000 Play cut two.
00:29:04.000 You said that Trump poses a near-existential threat to the rule of law.
00:29:10.000 Well, think about what four years of a retribution presidency might look like.
00:29:16.000 He could order the investigation and prosecution of individuals who he sees as enemies.
00:29:23.000 I'm sure I'm on the enemies list.
00:29:25.000 And so our Constitution really does give a rogue president, which is what this would be, tremendous power to destroy.
00:29:32.000 And so that's why I'm trying to warn people.
00:29:35.000 This is a preemptive strike.
00:29:36.000 It is brazen.
00:29:37.000 It is flagrant.
00:29:38.000 It is naked.
00:29:38.000 It is unchecked.
00:29:40.000 This is the most public intel agency interference of any constitutional process in American history.
00:29:48.000 Usually they hide it and all this.
00:29:49.000 Now it's out in the open.
00:29:51.000 They're proud of it.
00:29:52.000 They're going for a constitutional knockout punch, a constitutional deathblow.
00:29:58.000 And they're proud of it.
00:30:00.000 And they're doing it live on television.
00:30:02.000 The opposition party must rise.
00:30:08.000 Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, Mike Lindell, great American patriot, has My Pillow.
00:30:13.000 It's launching My Pillow 2.0.

00:31:16.000 And look, this is the truth.
00:31:18.000 The truth is heavy.
00:31:19.000 People can't always handle the burden.
00:31:22.000 We live in a very comfortable modern life.
00:31:24.000 You have Uber and cross-country flights and Wi-Fi and Netflix and Hulu.
00:31:29.000 You have seven different types of ranch that you could buy at your local grocery store.
00:31:35.000 Life is great.
00:31:36.000 You can medicate.
00:31:37.000 You got marijuana clinics at every corner in most of the Western states, all the food that you can eat.
00:31:43.000 Yeah, so what I am saying today is a direct challenge and affront to comfort.
00:31:49.000 And that's the tension, isn't it?
00:31:51.000 You have all the trappings of a luxurious life, and yet you are less free and by all objective metrics, less happy than ever before.
00:31:59.000 Isn't that the great irony of modernity?
00:32:02.000 Yeah, you have antibiotics, praise God, and you have Advil and you have Tylenol and you have acetametophan and you have abilities to be able to live longer.
00:32:12.000 You have blood pressure medication.
00:32:14.000 But do you have courage?
00:32:18.000 Many of you do.
00:32:20.000 Some do not.
00:32:22.000 Somebody says, Charlie, I don't like the way you're talking to me.
00:32:25.000 You're challenging me, and I wish we had the country I grew up in.
00:32:28.000 Yeah, you can wish all you want, but that's not reality.
00:32:32.000 You argue with reality.
00:32:33.000 You enter hell.
00:32:35.000 Why do they want to take out Trump so much?
00:32:37.000 Obviously, your values are a threat to them, but he's saying it outright.
00:32:42.000 Play cut 98.
00:32:44.000 I am your warrior.
00:32:45.000 I am your justice.
00:32:47.000 And for those who have been wronged and betrayed, I am your retribution.
00:32:52.000 I am your retribution.
00:32:54.000 Not going to let this happen.
00:32:59.000 Not going to let it happen.
00:33:04.000 I will totally obliterate the deep state.
00:33:08.000 Oh, they're listening.
00:33:09.000 And what is the contrast?
00:33:10.000 And I'm just going to just cherry-pick some contrasts.
00:33:14.000 How is the opposition party speaking?
00:33:17.000 How are they talking?
00:33:19.000 Look at Governor Doug Bergham from North Dakota, who says the issue is that we're not listening well enough.
00:33:27.000 They sidelined Tucker.
00:33:28.000 They're putting Bannon in prison.
00:33:30.000 They're calling moms and dads domestic terrorists.
00:33:32.000 China was never held accountable for the Fauci virus.
00:33:36.000 But the issue is that we have to become better listeners.
00:33:41.000 Play Cut 36.
00:33:43.000 Anger, yelling, infighting.
00:33:45.000 That's not going to cut it anymore.
00:33:48.000 Let's get things done.
00:33:51.000 In North Dakota, we listen with respect and we talk things out.
00:33:56.000 Doug Bergham, small town boy, turned self-made, world-class business leader, extraordinarily successful governor.
00:34:09.000 A listener and a doer.
00:34:13.000 A smart guy who's achieved a lot.
00:34:17.000 Yeah, first of all, in North Dakota, you're like an 80% Republican state and a 75% Christian state and a lot of other things that make it easier to govern in North Dakota.
00:34:28.000 Doug Bergham, the issue is that we don't listen enough.
00:34:32.000 Enough anger.
00:34:33.000 You know what?
00:34:33.000 I am angry, Doug Bergham.
00:34:35.000 I'm angry that the beautiful country that I grew up in is being shredded by these unelected, degenerate Marxists.
00:34:42.000 It's time for a little righteous indignation.
00:34:44.000 And I don't need your Chamber of Commerce happy talk from Fargo, North Dakota.
00:34:48.000 Oh, we just got to listen.
00:34:50.000 I love North Dakota.
00:34:51.000 They don't love you very much based on the people I've talked to.
00:34:53.000 Get out, Sunshine Patriot.
00:34:56.000 Go move to Ottawa with Canadians that are overly agreeable to tyranny.
00:35:00.000 We Americans fight.
00:35:01.000 That's what we do.
00:35:03.000 We don't need appeasement.
00:35:04.000 We don't need neutral peace settlements.
00:35:08.000 And yes, you must also, throughout all this, realize they're trying to provoke you.
00:35:13.000 You stay peaceful.
00:35:14.000 You stay constructive.
00:35:15.000 They're the violent ones.
00:35:17.000 But we are not metaphorically media matters suing for peace.
00:35:21.000 We're here to win and we will win.
00:35:24.000 We might not win immediately, but the one thing that you will not take from this show, the one thing you will not take from our turning point kids is the one thing that I keep on getting emailed to me, which is surrender.
00:35:36.000 About half of the audience emailing me today is ready to give up.
00:35:39.000 Fine, I'm 29 years old.
00:35:41.000 I want to live in this beautiful country.
00:35:42.000 We're going to keep on building.
00:35:44.000 We're going to keep on fighting.
00:35:45.000 You could take everything from us.
00:35:48.000 You can indict us and throw us all in prison and shut down our businesses and confiscate our assets.
00:35:53.000 You will not take our grit.
00:35:56.000 You will not take our attitude of commitment.
00:36:00.000 You could take all material possessions.
00:36:01.000 You could smear us and slander us and call us names, but you will not take our spirit.
00:36:08.000 It's not about listening better or too much anger.
00:36:12.000 You know what?
00:36:12.000 I think we need a little bit more righteous indignation.
00:36:15.000 We need a little bit more calling out of the deep state criminals.
