00:00:00.000We go through Biden's new infrastructure bill, what is in it and what it means here on the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:00:46.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:00:53.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:05.000Joe Biden announced a new $2 trillion infrastructure package.
00:01:13.000Now, how does the New York Times describe this?
00:01:17.000A Biden plan stresses jobs, roads, and growth.
00:01:22.000Included in the plan would be Joe Biden raising corporate taxes to be the highest effective tax rate in the world.
00:01:30.000Now, the first thing that the left and the Democrats are not telling you, and the reason why they are advocating for tax increases, is because they know inflation is coming.
00:01:46.000When you have inflation coming, you must restrict the money supply.
00:01:49.000One of the ways to do that is through taxation.
00:01:51.000George H.W. Bush famously did that after he promised not to raise taxes.
00:02:59.000It was written by Ron Klain and the people running our government.
00:03:03.000And everyone should familiarize themselves with Ron Klain, who's the chief of staff for the president and what he did before he became president and the industries he's connected to.
00:03:16.000But there's one part of this in particular that I think explains this entire infrastructure package.
00:03:23.000And the activist media, the Washington Post, and the New York Times are completely ignoring it.
00:03:29.000It has here what's in the infrastructure package.
00:03:32.000$46 billion for clean energy manufacturing.
00:03:36.000$50 billion for the semiconductor industry.
00:04:16.000Joe Biden is making good on his promise to the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers, the two largest teacher unions in the country, that he is going to pay them back for what they did for him and the indoctrination that they are putting forward.
00:04:30.000Here's one: $10 billion for federal buildings.
00:04:33.000I'm very curious the rationale for this.
00:04:37.000What federal building needs updating so badly?
00:04:52.000You know, if you go to Palo Alto, and we're going to be in San Jose next week, by the way, if you guys want to come see us, tpusa.com/slash genfree.
00:05:00.000When we were in, I was in Palo Alto once, and all these people complain about the price of housing and that we need more affordable housing.
00:05:09.000And they have all these committees about how they can do it.
00:05:11.000You know how you get housing to be more affordable?
00:07:39.000The $174 billion for electric vehicle incentives, this might as well be a direct deposit in ACH right into the ruling class's bank account.
00:09:20.000Some of them truly believe that America is so broken, so backwards, and that they possess the right answers that they must be in charge.
00:09:34.000And unfortunately, this last year, we have seen that people value safetyism far more over liberty.
00:09:42.000They regard the Leviathan, as Thomas Hobbes warned us against, that people do not actually want to make rational decisions, but instead, they would much rather prefer to be provided for or taken care of.
00:10:01.000This infrastructure package, alongside H.R. 1 and HR5, and D.C. as the 51st state, shows that Democrats are uninterested in preserving an America that you and I love.
00:10:14.000They're trying to remake it, as Barack Obama said, to fundamentally transform America in their image.
00:11:12.000Even if we were completely financially solvent and we had a balanced budget, which we have not had in quite some time, that we weren't running $4 trillion deficits.
00:11:24.000Even if all those things were true, I would oppose this vehemently because this is a bad idea.
00:11:30.000It's a bad idea, and it's bad morally to go give $174 billion in electric car incentives, which is basically a direct deposit to Democrat donors.
00:11:40.000It's a bad idea to give $100 billion to public schools, which is a handout to the public sector teacher unions trying to destroy charter schools.
00:11:48.000It's a bad idea to give $50 billion, if not any dollar amount, to the semiconductor industry.
00:11:59.000If we were to do anything like this, you know what that Donald Trump wanted to do $200 billion on infrastructure, and he was told that that amount was too big.
00:12:07.000That Donald Trump had a $200 billion infrastructure package, and Democrats told him to go pound sand.
00:12:13.000Joe Biden is proposing something 10 times that after a $2 trillion stimulus, after the $1.9 trillion stimulus, after the $3 trillion stimulus, after the $4.4 trillion continuing resolution, and after the $1 trillion stimulus, I could you not, all of that has been done in one year.
00:12:29.000John Maynard Keynes may have lost the battle, but he is winning the war.
00:13:08.000This right here is the fulfilling of the promises of people that helped get Joe Biden into the presidency.
00:13:15.000As we mentioned, semiconductors, Center for Technology and Civic Life spent $400 million helping mail-in balloting across the country.
00:13:24.000The National Education Association, the American Federation of Teachers, spent millions of dollars.
00:13:29.000University of California is the number one donor to the Democrat Party per profession in the entire country, which would make sense for all the handouts for higher education in this bill.
00:13:42.000This is not about infrastructure for the country.
00:13:46.000This is about building the infrastructure of the Democrat Party.
00:14:22.000After the ambulance took George Floyd away, the Minneapolis police officer had pinned his knee on the black man's neck defended himself to a bystander saying Floyd was a sizable guy and probably on something, which he was.
00:14:32.000Not only was he on something, he was on a lot of something.
00:14:35.000And his lawyer is trying to explain it away by saying, well, he had a lot of tolerance, also known as George Floyd, who was a drug addict.
00:14:59.000What I am saying is that there's a lot more to the story than all of a sudden a racial profiling incident of a police officer finding a random black man.
00:15:08.000But here's the most important thing of this particular story: is that this young man, 19-year-old Christopher Martin, who reported George Floyd to his boss for having fake currency, is now saying that he has guilt about what happened.
00:16:52.000Continues, Martin said he immediately believed that George Floyd's $20 bill is fake, but he said he accepted it despite believing the amount would be taken out of his paycheck by his employer because he didn't think Floyd knew it was counterfeit.
00:17:04.000And quote, I thought I'd be doing him a favor.
00:17:07.000Martin said he initially planned to just put the bill on his own tab, but then second-guessed himself from there and told the manager who sent Martin outside to ask Floyd to return to the store.
00:17:18.000But Floyd, who is likely high on drugs and a passenger in his SUV, twice refused to go back into the store to resolve the issue.
00:17:27.000If George Floyd would have just went back into the store to resolve the issue, maybe this whole thing could have been avoided.
00:17:33.000Maybe that's the narrative that should be used.
00:17:36.000Not saying he deserved to die, but what they're trying to say here is that all we have to do is decriminalize the small crimes and the big stuff will go away.
00:18:23.000What they're trying to do is build a narrative of George Floyd being a victim of not just Derek Chauvin, but being a victim of an overly zealous criminal justice system that wants to go find counterfeit currency.
00:18:37.000You know, counterfeit currency could be argued as one of the most serious financial crimes.
00:19:28.000The media is loving the fact that he is feeling guilty about the whole thing.
00:19:32.000But make no mistake, this is exactly what's happening in Baltimore right now.
00:19:38.000Baltimore, which has one of the highest murder rates in the country, they just basically said they will not prosecute, and I quote, prostitution, drug possession.
00:20:16.000I will not be part of renaming a school after someone who did not and does not represent the undocumented community, the illegal community.
00:20:23.000Waukegan, which is North Chicago, right near the Wisconsin border, met Tuesday evening to debate renaming Thomas Jefferson Middle School and Daniel Webster Middle School, after who's decided historical figures either owned slaves or supported slavery.
00:20:42.000He did own slaves, but he argued in the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, blaming King George for slavery, saying it was immoral.
00:20:52.000Thomas Jefferson signed a moratorium disallowing new slaves to be brought into the United States in 1803.
00:20:59.000Thomas Jefferson's own document, the Declaration of Independence, in 1777, inspired the abolition of slavery in Vermont.
00:21:07.000Thomas Jefferson argued for the abolition of slavery in the Virginia House of Commons.
00:21:12.000Of course, this nonsense in Waukegan, Illinois, for all my friends listening on AM 560, The Answer, none of that truth of the brilliance of Thomas Jefferson being an architect, a founder of the university, an American president.
00:21:28.000He was something else under Washington.
00:21:43.000But for the postmodernists, anything that has come before me is a mistake and they're all racist.
00:21:48.000Well, at least they're judging Barack Obama by that same standard.
00:21:53.000Julie Contreras says, quote, from the time Barack Obama became president until 2017 when he left, he today is still the highest ranking president with deportations in our nation.
00:22:03.000We feel that Barack Obama did a disservice to us.
00:22:19.000And our families do not want to see that name.
00:22:22.000Another woman, Mauricio Sanchez, said naming the school after Obama would serve as a painful reminder of her father's deportation under the Obama administration in 2015.
00:22:52.000Because Obama was still operating under this paradigm of the left that you can't go scorched earth.
00:22:57.000Under Donald Trump, this new left was created that we can just burn the whole country to the ground and the media will defend us because Trump was so bombastic and he gave us the cover fire to do it.
00:23:06.000It's probably one of the worst things that came out of the Trump era: the left had no shame, no disregard, and will do whatever it wants, whenever it wants, and we'll just blame Trump and racism.
00:23:16.000Activists protest renaming Chicago school after oppressor Barack Obama.
00:23:19.000Well, Obama was an oppressor for different reasons.
00:24:08.000If you wanted to go name a white school after Barack Obama, they would love it in a second.
00:24:14.000If you wanted to go rename Glenbrook North or Glenbrook South or Hersey High School, they'd do it in a second.
00:24:21.000Waukegan, Hispanic community, not so much.
00:24:27.000The Republican-led Arizona State Senate on Wednesday announced that four firms have been hired to audit election results and count the 2.1 million ballots cast in Maricopa County's 2020 general election to ensure the legitimacy of Joe Biden's win.
00:24:44.000The announcement from Senator Karen Phan comes just weeks after Arizona legislators order a recount of the ballots from the state's most populous county.
00:24:53.000The state senate released a statement on March 18th stating that it will conduct a broad and detailed audit, adding that it will test voting machine scam ballots and look for IT breaches.
00:25:04.000Now, with this, all of a sudden there's been an emergency meeting called in Arizona last minute about this.
00:25:10.000Now, what's so strange about what's happening in Arizona, I spend a lot of time in Arizona.
00:26:09.000If you have nothing to hide, why are you hiding it?
00:26:14.000So Maricopa right now is going through a lot of just a lot of turbulence.
00:26:19.000I might even have Tyler or Austin come on here and explain this to me because a lot of it's in Maricopa County and I don't quite understand all of it.
00:26:27.000But essentially, there's an emergency meeting of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.
00:26:31.000It's at the emergency executive and possibly open session of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors may consider legal advice regarding board responsibilities and authority regarding elections, election equipment audits, Senate subpoenas, and litigation.
00:26:44.000The emergency is due to the need to get legal advice regarding newly received information from the Senate concerning compliance for election-related subpoenas.
00:27:02.000The Senate said leadership will not be directly involved in the process to maintain integrity and transparency.
00:27:07.000Two separate forensic audits of last year's election results have been conducted by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.
00:27:15.000However, the Senate, State Senate maintains a separate audit must be carried out with a trusted group in order to restore faith in the voting system.
00:27:51.000Now, we got to stop HR1, which Kirsten Cinema can probably do if she holds the line on the filibuster.
00:27:57.000I was with Senator Blackburn and Senator Haggerty last night, two great senators from Tennessee, and they believe that Manchin and Cinema are going to hold the line for now.
00:28:07.000But it remains to be seen beyond that how things will unfold.
00:28:15.000Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
