00:01:18.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:01:21.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:25.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:26.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:27.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:35.000 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.
00:01:44.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:47.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at AndrewandTodd.com.
00:01:56.000 We are watching the Kerry Lake trial.
00:01:58.000 Hopefully we're going to, Carrie Lake has now been granted an opportunity to prove her case in court.
00:02:03.000 We're going to keep our eyes on that.
00:02:05.000 And so as we get information, we are going to talk about what is happening in the Kerry Lake trial.
00:02:10.000 But, you know, for years, if you would go back on the Charlie Kirk Show archives, I have been lamenting about how we do not have better elites.
00:02:19.000 I think one of the most frustrating things happening in America is people that have benefited financially, that have made so much money, that have lived a very comfortable and really successful life, then use their resources, their time, their treasure, their energy to then crush the very country that made them successful or was able to make them successful.
00:02:39.000 It's one of the most frustrating developments.
00:02:41.000 I hear it all the time.
00:02:42.000 Charlie, why does Bezos, Charlie, why do the people at Apple, why is it that the people that are from Goldman Sachs or from Facebook or from Google, why is it they then want to destroy the free market that made them money?
00:02:56.000 Why is it they want to keep the borders open?
00:02:59.000 Why is they want to destroy the country?
00:03:00.000 And there's really not a good answer to that.
00:03:02.000 You see, we teach our children in our government schools about Andrew Carnegie or Rockefeller or J.P. Morgan.
00:03:11.000 We say that was the Gilded Age.
00:03:12.000 These were the robber barons.
00:03:13.000 Now, there's always something you could criticize about them, but I never doubt for a second.
00:03:18.000 You can go back to their philanthropy, to their charitable work.
00:03:23.000 I never doubt that Carnegie Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, and the Robber Barons, I never doubt that they loved the country.
00:03:32.000 You could criticize the economic inequality or the poor working conditions, but they were patriots.
00:03:39.000 They donated to libraries, to hospitals.
00:03:41.000 They built beautiful institutions, many of which still exist today.
00:03:46.000 You see, we have a different problem in America where the Carnegies, the Mellons, the Morgans, the Rockefellers of today, the Bezos, The Google people, Sergey Brin and Larry Page, the Reid Hoffmans, the Mackenzie Bezos, the Lorene Powell Jobs, they have the tens of billions and sometimes hundreds of billions of dollars, and they hate the country.
00:04:11.000 And they use their money politically.
00:04:13.000 They use their money charitably to crush you, to try to fund open border groups.
00:04:18.000 And the person who is made a career out of this, the person who has done more damage through his own political contributions, through his nonprofit work, than any other elite is George Soros.
00:04:35.000 George Soros is an evil man.
00:04:36.000 We're not going to mince words.
00:04:37.000 George Soros wants the destruction of Western civilization.
00:04:40.000 Just read his articles dating back a couple decades.
00:04:44.000 He runs the Open Society Foundation.
00:04:46.000 George Soros has donated 95% of his net worth to the Open Society Foundation, nearly $18 to $22 billion of an asset transfer to keep American sovereignty under attack, to defund our police.
00:04:59.000 He was the number one donor in the 2022 midterms of $128 million that we know of funding people like Kim Fox or Chesa Boudin, Alvin Bragg.
00:05:10.000 He wants to try to defund the police.
00:05:12.000 He wants to change the fabric, the fiber of the country.
00:05:15.000 George Soros does not believe the Constitution is a beautiful document.
00:05:20.000 George Soros does not believe in American exceptionalism.
00:05:22.000 No, George Soros has for decades, and he thinks he's close, tried to destabilize the American Republic.
00:05:32.000 Now, as we lament about how bad our elites are, we should also be honest when somebody in the elite community says good things and starts to do good things.
00:05:43.000 It is impossible for us to win the culture war.
00:05:47.000 It's impossible for us to revitalize the country.
00:05:50.000 It's impossible for us to defeat the Marxist left without a few very wealthy elites that come and partner with our grassroots movement.
00:05:59.000 We need it.
00:06:01.000 We need them either ideologically, economically.
00:06:03.000 We need them to come into harmony and say, it is wrong that George Soros is spending billions of dollars to destroy the country.
00:06:11.000 We used to have a word for that.
00:06:12.000 It's called treason.
00:06:13.000 We shouldn't put up with it.
00:06:15.000 You know, there's a lot of people in the audience.
00:06:17.000 A lot of you email us negative emails.
00:06:19.000 Negative, negative, negative.
00:06:20.000 I get it to a certain extent about Elon Musk.
00:06:24.000 We can understand that.
00:06:25.000 He's doing the Neuralink thing.
00:06:27.000 He does a lot of business in China.
00:06:29.000 He's the richest or second richest man in the world, depending on stock prices.
00:06:32.000 He's involved in everything.
00:06:33.000 He's not a conservative.
00:06:35.000 He's not.
00:06:36.000 I totally get it.
00:06:36.000 I am a conservative.
00:06:38.000 Many of you are conservatives.
00:06:40.000 However, he says things and does things that deserve praise.
00:06:44.000 He's willing to challenge the elite orthodoxy.
00:06:47.000 And Elon Musk has, quote unquote, got himself in some trouble.
00:06:50.000 And this is of the theme that I think is worth celebrating and worth some encouragement.
00:06:56.000 Rich people that have all the money in the world, they could spend time on islands, literally buying islands and nations and quote unquote fighting climate change.
00:07:05.000 No, Elon Musk has decided to plainly call out George Soros for being a supervillain.
00:07:14.000 Jeff Bezos would never do this.
00:07:15.000 The Google people would never do this.
00:07:17.000 The Wall Street people would never do this.
00:07:18.000 No, no, Elon Musk tweeted a joke that George Soros reminded him of Magneto, a supervillain from the X-Men comic series.
00:07:27.000 In a follow-up tweet, Musk says, this is Elon Musk, the world's richest man or second world's richest man, depending on the market.
00:07:33.000 George Soros wants to erode the very fabric of civilization.
00:07:36.000 Soros hates humanity.
00:07:39.000 Elon Musk is 100% correct.
00:07:43.000 George Soros has waged war on the West, on humanity as we know it, for decades.
00:07:50.000 It is his life's work.
00:07:52.000 George Soros equates open society with a dying society.
00:07:57.000 He wants to destroy speech and have it be suppressed.
00:08:01.000 He wants the family to be destroyed.
00:08:03.000 He's one of the big believers in the BLM destruction of the nuclear family unit.
00:08:07.000 He wants the streets to be filled with killers and addicts, laws made by unaccountable globalists.
00:08:12.000 He doesn't believe in checks and balances or separation of powers.
00:08:16.000 He doesn't believe in the promise of the Declaration of Independence.
00:08:18.000 No, no, no.
00:08:19.000 George Soros believes in deconstructionism, destabilization.
00:08:26.000 You see, George Soros is an ideological cancer on any functioning country.
00:08:32.000 This is literally why his home country of Hungary has done everything they possibly can to ban him from the country.
00:08:40.000 He's an insurgent force.
00:08:41.000 He tries to influence and fund groups to take down what already exists.
00:08:46.000 There is nothing redeemable about the actions of George Soros.
00:08:50.000 And he funds elections.
00:08:52.000 He funds these DAs and these individuals all across the board.
00:08:58.000 It takes courage to go after George Soros.
00:09:00.000 And you better believe there has been silence across the landscape the last couple of decades of people with money, prestige, let alone somebody who runs Tesla SpaceX, to say, George Soros, you're an evil man.
00:09:12.000 Elon Musk did not mince words.
00:09:13.000 And I know you guys are going to send me plenty of emails complaining about him, but hear me out here.
00:09:17.000 Allow me a chance to convince you.
00:09:19.000 He wants to erode the very fabric of civilization.
00:09:22.000 Soros hates humanity.
00:09:23.000 Elon Musk was given an opportunity to clarify this on CNBC.
00:09:28.000 CNBC came and decided to interview him and said, hey, you know, what's the story here?
00:09:33.000 You know, with you going after Elon Musk?
00:09:36.000 Well, what is the issue here?
00:09:39.000 You see, CNBC has to try to protect the regime narrative.
00:09:45.000 Let's go to Cut 54.
00:09:46.000 Elon Musk, asked by CNBC about his tweet about George Soros hating humanity.
00:09:50.000 Play Cut 54.
00:09:51.000 But how do you make a choice?
00:09:54.000 You don't see, I mean, in terms of when you're going to engage.
00:09:57.000 I mean, for example, even today, Elon, you tweeted this thing about George Soros.
00:10:02.000 You basically.
00:10:03.000 It reminds me of Maybeetos.
00:10:04.000 It's like, you know, calm down, people.
00:10:05.000 This is not like made a pedal case out of it.
00:10:09.000 He said he wants to erode the very fabric of civilization, and Soros hates humanity.
00:10:13.000 Like, when you do something like that, I think that's true.
00:10:16.000 That's my opinion.
00:10:17.000 Okay, but why share it?
00:10:18.000 Why share it when people who buy Teslas may not agree with you?
00:10:22.000 Advertisers on Twitter may not agree with you.
00:10:26.000 Why not just say, hey, I think this?
00:10:27.000 You can tell me.
00:10:28.000 We can talk about it over there.
00:10:29.000 You can tell your friends, but why share it widely?
00:10:33.000 I mean, this is freedom of speech.
00:10:36.000 I'm allowed to say what I want.
00:10:37.000 You absolutely are.
00:10:39.000 I just, I love the premise of the question.
00:10:41.000 Mr. Musk, can you tell us why you feel you have to speak the truth on Twitter?
00:10:47.000 Why don't you just be quiet about it?
00:10:49.000 Just be in your corner.
00:10:50.000 It's such a repulsive question, isn't it?
00:10:54.000 Why do you feel the need to have to air your opinions, Mr. Musk?
00:10:58.000 Why can't you just be like all the other obedient CEOs that we interview on this network that stay in line and do what they're told?
00:11:06.000 Elon said something that I tend to believe.
00:11:08.000 He says, if I lose money, I lose money.
00:11:10.000 Okay, we're going to talk more about Soros and Musk because now Musk is being attacked as an anti-Semite.
00:11:16.000 Give me a break.
00:11:17.000 No, this is important.
00:11:20.000 I want to talk about ReliefFactor.com.

00:11:58.000 How did George Soros make his money?
00:12:00.000 George Soros largely made his money through currency destabilization and manipulation.
00:12:05.000 I'll be honest, I largely find the way that George Soros made his money repugnant.
00:12:09.000 He made a lot of money off of manipulating markets.
00:12:12.000 I'm not saying it should be illegal.
00:12:14.000 I just don't think it's admirable.
00:12:15.000 I don't.
00:12:16.000 I think that George Soros made a lot of money off of the pain of others and the mass societal chaos and carnage.
00:12:21.000 Elon Musk, I will say, despite a lot of philosophical differences I have, he's built some very, very serious companies.
00:12:30.000 Launching rockets is no joke.
00:12:33.000 Remaking the car is certainly no joke.
00:12:37.000 Elon has created real value.
00:12:40.000 What is the company that George Soros has created?
00:12:42.000 What is the value he has brought to the world?
00:12:45.000 Rockefeller, you could say, okay, he brought the world cheap oil.
00:12:48.000 Carnegie brought the world cheap steel.
00:12:50.000 Bill Gates at least gave us Microsoft, even though he wants it to change the world.
00:12:53.000 And another bad dude.
00:12:56.000 Elon Musk, you'd say, okay, well, it's SpaceX and it's the boring company and it's Tesla and now Twitter.
00:13:06.000 It's real stuff.
00:13:07.000 PayPal.
00:13:08.000 That's a real portfolio of value.
00:13:12.000 George Soros is about destabilization and currency manipulation.
00:13:17.000 And this is one of the most frustrating patterns in our media is when you criticize a powerful globalist, when you criticize a powerful member of the regime,
00:13:33.000 immediately the nonprofit groups like ADL or the activist groups of the media have to find a thought-terminating cliché to use to shut you up or shut up the person doing the criticizing.
00:13:50.000 Now, what is a thought-terminating cliché?
00:13:53.000 A thought-terminating cliché is a thought stopper.
00:13:57.000 It's a form of loaded language that is used to end an argument.
00:14:01.000 For example, you're a racist.
00:14:03.000 That's bigoted.
00:14:04.000 It's supposed to intimidate you.
00:14:05.000 It's supposed to paralyze your inquiry.
00:14:09.000 It's supposed to end all discussion.
00:14:11.000 That is a thought-terminating cliché.
00:14:14.000 Now, a thought-terminating cliché is usually used with racial stuff.
00:14:18.000 But George, this is the one that just infuriates me.
00:14:21.000 Anytime George Soros gets criticized in the public eye, all of a sudden they say it is anti-Semitic.
00:14:30.000 George Soros, first of all, is not a religious Jew.
00:14:35.000 He has said time and time again, he is not a religious person.
00:14:39.000 Nobody is criticizing George Soros because of his Jewish ancestry.
00:14:44.000 Nobody.
00:14:45.000 But immediately the Anti-Defamation League says, Elon Musk is parroting anti-Semitic tropes time and time and time again.
00:14:55.000 This is nonsense.
00:14:56.000 It is not anti-Semitism to criticize George Soros.
00:15:00.000 In fact, it's the opposite.
00:15:01.000 It is necessary.
00:15:03.000 In fact, I will publicly question if George Soros actually believes in Judaism.
00:15:12.000 Does George Soros believe in the values of the Torah?
00:15:15.000 That's not for me to judge.
00:15:16.000 I mean, that's something that Dennis Prager can probably talk openly about a lot better than I can.
00:15:21.000 But I don't glean from George Soros' commentary that he believes in the values of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.
00:15:29.000 Play Cut 68.
00:15:31.000 Are you religious?
00:15:32.000 No.
00:15:34.000 Do you believe in God?
00:15:36.000 No.
00:15:37.000 Soros told us he believes God was created by man, not the other way around, which may be why he thinks he can smooth out the world's imperfections.
00:15:46.000 Okay, so he believes that God was created by men.
00:15:48.000 Are you religious?
00:15:49.000 No.
00:15:50.000 He says it very plainly.
00:15:51.000 So, why is it all of a sudden that he gets to then quote unquote hide behind the veil of, oh, you can't criticize me because I'm Jewish?
00:16:01.000 According to your own admission, you don't believe in the core tenets of Judaism.
00:16:04.000 You might be Jewish by blood, but wait a second.
00:16:08.000 Are you trying to say that we can't criticize powerful people because they might be related?
00:16:14.000 What exactly is going on here?
00:16:15.000 The answer is the Anti-Defamation League, which is doing the bidding of Soros and his allies, are trying to stop any sort of proper cross-examination, any sort of exposure of their deeds of darkness.
00:16:30.000 And Elon Musk is correct by framing him as a supervillain.
00:16:35.000 George Soros is a supervillain against Western civilization, and it has nothing to do with the Judaism he does not believe in.
00:16:44.000 I mean, just does George Soros honor the Shabbat?
00:16:46.000 I don't know.
00:16:47.000 That's not for me.
00:16:48.000 I'm not Jewish, but a lot of respect for the Jewish people, a lot of respect for the Torah.
00:16:51.000 But it doesn't seem as if, by his own admission, he even believes in that stuff.
00:16:54.000 But when he gets criticized, immediately it's like, oh, can't talk about it because he's Jewish.
00:17:00.000 Is he?
00:17:01.000 Does he believe in that?
00:17:02.000 Is it even relevant?
00:17:03.000 No, it's not.
00:17:04.000 Even if he was a practicing religious Jew, it is completely and totally irrelevant.
00:17:10.000 What is relevant is he hates the country.
00:17:13.000 And they're using a thought-terminating cliche because they know that George Soros is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors against Western society.
00:17:24.000 Where have all the mortgage companies gone?
00:17:26.000 With all the here today, gone tomorrow companies out there.
00:17:28.000 It's important to use seasoned mortgage experts with years of experience.
00:17:31.000 Use the company I personally use for my mortgage needs.
00:17:35.000 I've used them, and I could tell you, Andrew Del Rey and Todd of Akian at Sierra Pacific Mortgage make the process enjoyable.
00:17:40.000 Yes, they're friends of mine.
00:17:42.000 Yes, they're Christians.
00:17:43.000 Yes, they're conservatives.

00:18:06.000 I had a whole bunch of nonsense they had to sort out, and they've been fabulous.
00:18:10.000 They're really great, and they were there for me.

00:18:56.000 Look, I'm not telling you what's going to happen, but it looks like the housing market might be surging up a little bit.
00:19:00.000 Go to Andrewandodd.com.
00:19:02.000 That's AndrewandTodd.com.
00:19:03.000 Call 888 8881172 AndrewandTodd.com.
00:19:09.000 Steve Weinberg says, Charlie, I'm a Jewish man and a big fan of your positions and ideology.
00:19:13.000 I listen to you religiously every day.
00:19:16.000 I could not agree with you more on your comments regarding George Soros.
00:19:18.000 He's an absolute evil monster to our country and a disgusting piece of garbage as a person.
00:19:24.000 Great job as usual, Charlie.
00:19:26.000 Steve, you are absolutely spot on.
00:19:28.000 Thank you.
00:19:28.000 God bless you.
00:19:29.000 Yeah, look, I'm going to get criticized by saying, Charlie Kirk is anti-Semitic.
00:19:32.000 That's just nonsense.
00:19:34.000 I mean, it's damaging to discourse.
00:19:37.000 It is.
00:19:39.000 I don't criticize, no person criticizes George Soros because they say, oh, well, you know, I'm criticizing because of his Judaism.
00:19:48.000 That's not even in the calculus.
00:19:50.000 It's not even in the equation.
00:19:52.000 We're criticizing George Soros because of his evil deeds.
00:19:56.000 If that was indeed the case for any of us, why is it that we are such good friends and partners with Ben Shapiro or Dennis Prager?
00:20:06.000 This is so damaging because what it does is it makes people skittish.
00:20:14.000 It makes people afraid.
00:20:16.000 to call out evil because for whatever reason the media tells you you can't do.
00:20:21.000 Okay.
00:20:21.000 Okay, so let's look at Chris Hayes, MSNBC, because they have a whole field day with this, right?
00:20:29.000 Because as soon as you criticize George Soros, instead of actually defending what Soros has done, you notice that they don't defend Soros' work.
00:20:39.000 They don't defend like, oh, actually, George Soros has done this, this, this, this, and this, because he's arsenic.
00:20:44.000 George Soros is a poison.
00:20:47.000 His actions are a poison to the Republic, to rule of law.
00:20:52.000 And this is not, I'm not being hyperbolic.
00:20:55.000 I'm not exaggerating.
00:20:57.000 There is no defense at all of his political contributions in support of his prosecutors.
00:21:05.000 And it's not like some one-off thing.
00:21:06.000 It is a pattern.
00:21:08.000 And so MSNBC and Chris Hayes, they know this.
00:21:13.000 They know it's indefensible.
00:21:14.000 So instead, they say, oh, well, you know, it is turning into authoritarianism on Twitter and anti-Semitism.
00:21:22.000 So let's go to Cut 63.
00:21:25.000 Just listen to Chris Hayes saying, oh, Elon Musk is trying to make him into some sort of, and again, this is, I'm just using their words, Jew supervillain.
00:21:32.000 That's Chris Hayes' words.
00:21:35.000 Okay, again, George Soros is not off limits because of a Judaism he probably does not even believe in.
00:21:45.000 Everybody should be able to be criticized if they're doing evil.
00:21:48.000 There's no people that are quote unquote off limits.
00:21:51.000 Okay, let's play Cut 63, please.
00:21:54.000 We are an advertising company.
00:21:55.000 They have been to the extent they were ever profitable.
00:21:58.000 It just seems like you're not like, what are you going to do?
00:22:00.000 Put your tweets next to him saying George Soros is a big comic book Jew villain?
00:22:07.000 That's basically what he's saying.
00:22:09.000 And look, Chris, over the last few years, I've had to go to the worst websites in the world every day.
00:22:12.000 I had an HAM when that was in its bang 4chan.
00:22:15.000 I don't think I dread going to a site more than I dread going to Twitter every day because you see that the dumbest stuff is underneath smart people.
00:22:22.000 So MSNBC does the bidding of the Anti-Defamation League.
00:22:25.000 And now, why is this important?
00:22:27.000 And again, I just want to re-emphasize this: is that the most powerful people that are destroying your country think they are immune to criticism because they can hide behind thought-terminating clichés.
00:22:40.000 And Elon doesn't care.
00:22:41.000 So let's kind of bring this all together.
00:22:43.000 Elon is willing to call them out.
00:22:46.000 We need more elites like Elon Musk that are willing to spend the money, challenge the orthodoxy.
00:22:51.000 And look at this.
00:22:52.000 He's sitting down with the CNBC and CNBC says, oh, really, this guy's, who's this CNBC reporter?
00:23:01.000 He might be a nice person.
00:23:02.000 He might be a great father.
00:23:04.000 He might be a lovely husband.
00:23:06.000 The guy's a moron.
00:23:08.000 He is a very stupid person.
00:23:10.000 I don't say that lightly because listen to this.
00:23:12.000 Elon Musk sitting down with the CNBC guy and Elon's saying, hey, just so you know, there's no proof that the Allen Texas shooter was a white supremacist, David Faber.
00:23:22.000 And then this reporter says, well, there's no evidence to support that he wasn't.
00:23:29.000 What galaxy are you living in?
00:23:31.000 There's no evidence to support David Faber that you're not a pedophile.
00:23:35.000 I mean, is that really what we're going to go at?
00:23:36.000 It's like, okay, but then Elon responds.
00:23:38.000 He says, okay, but there's no evidence to support that there is.
00:23:43.000 That's how things work in the West.
00:23:46.000 The presumption of innocence.
00:23:47.000 We don't go around and say, you got to prove your innocence that you're not an arsonist, that you're not a bank robber.
00:23:55.000 These people have not really thought through their positions because at CNBC, they're so used to CEO interviews where they say, Oh, tell us how much money you're donating to BLM.
00:24:04.000 Tell us about your diversity, equity, and inclusion department.
00:24:07.000 Okay, play cut 69, please.
00:24:08.000 This is Elon at his best.
00:24:10.000 He deserves praise here.
00:24:11.000 If you're honest in the audience, you might hate Elon.
00:24:14.000 You should say, This is a powerful 45 seconds.
00:24:17.000 Play Cut 69.
00:24:18.000 Obviously, people were killed, but it was, I think, incorrectly ascribed to be a white supremacist action.
00:24:26.000 I couldn't really even follow exactly what it was you were trying to express there.
00:24:30.000 So that's part why I was curious.
00:24:31.000 But I'm saying that I thought ascribing it to white supremacy was bullshit.
00:24:35.000 Okay.
00:24:36.000 And that the information for that came from an obscure Russian website and was somehow magically found by Bellingcat, which is a company that does psyops.
00:24:49.000 And there's no proof, by the way, that he was not.
00:24:52.000 There's no, I would say that there's no proof that he is.
00:24:56.000 And that's a debate you want to get into on Twitter.
00:24:59.000 Yes.
00:25:01.000 Because we should not be ascribing things to white supremacy if it's false.
00:25:05.000 No proof that he's not.
00:25:06.000 These people in the media.
00:25:07.000 It's a presumption of innocence.
00:25:09.000 Do you have any evidence at all?
00:25:10.000 Then don't postulate it.
00:25:12.000 And so as we look at how do we save the country, we need more defections from the elite class.
00:25:17.000 And yeah, they're going to try to take Elon out.
00:25:20.000 But they got a problem with Elon because they need Elon.
00:25:22.000 They need Elon for the electric vehicle nonsense that they want to try to mandate.
00:25:27.000 They need Elon for some of the, of course, communications via satellites and what's the name of the company?
00:25:35.000 Starlink.
00:25:37.000 Cut 64.
00:25:37.000 The New York Times is really fired up.
00:25:39.000 Elon has turned Twitter into a vehicle for authoritarianism.
00:25:43.000 PlayCut 64.
00:25:45.000 He is basically, he is the, you know, kind of, he turned Twitter into, on many different fronts, a vehicle for authoritarianism, both, you know, kind of spouting authoritarian content and tamping down on content that would challenge authoritarianism.
00:26:02.000 Content that would challenge authoritarianism, he's destroyed.
00:26:06.000 I just, these are people that are defending the targeting of moms and dads at school board meetings.
00:26:14.000 These are people that are perfectly fine with political dissidents, like Steve Bannon being indicted, James O'Keefe being raided, the constant nonstop persecution of January 6th defendants, and they're lecturing us about authoritarianism.
00:26:31.000 The people that wanted to contact Trace you because you went to a church, and they're saying that we're the authoritarian people.
00:26:37.000 Probably the most powerful clip is David Faber talking about conspiracy theories.
00:26:44.000 I think you're seeing Elon Musk become red-pilled.
00:26:47.000 I really do.
00:26:48.000 I think you are seeing the red pilling of the world's richest man.
00:26:51.000 Why?
00:26:52.000 Because he's intellectually curious.
00:26:54.000 I really believe this.
00:26:56.000 I believe that any American who is intellectually curious and honest will move further to the center right during this time in American American drama that's playing out.
00:27:08.000 It is impossible to go to the center left or to the left if you are intellectually curious and honest.
00:27:15.000 The more you ask, the more you inquire, the more you research, you are going to go further to at least the center to the center right.
00:27:23.000 The American right is the only place we are allowed to think for yourself and say, well, that's wrong.
00:27:28.000 And that's interesting.
00:27:28.000 Maybe that goes too far.
00:27:29.000 And again, we do not require, we should not require, let me put it this way.
00:27:33.000 We should not require that every person who decides to quote unquote enter the center right agrees with us on everything.
00:27:40.000 I'm 100% conservative across the board.
00:27:42.000 You guys are too.
00:27:43.000 At the same time, I think it's really powerful that Elon Musk is challenging this guy on CNBC about conspiracy theories.
00:27:51.000 Now, instead of running to the hills and taking the bank, Elon says, wait a second.
00:27:54.000 A lot of these conspiracy theories are coming true.
00:27:56.000 Epstein Island?
00:27:58.000 Hunter Biden laptop?
00:27:59.000 Where did the virus come from?
00:28:01.000 Play Cut 53.
00:28:03.000 Some tweets that seem to be, or at least give support to some who would call others conspiracy theories.
00:28:11.000 Well, yes, but I mean, honestly, you know, some of these conspiracy theories have turned out to be true.
00:28:21.000 Which ones?
00:28:22.000 Well, like the Hunter Biden laptop.
00:28:25.000 That's true.
00:28:26.000 Yeah.
00:28:26.000 Yeah.
00:28:27.000 So, you know, that was a pretty big deal.
00:28:30.000 There was Twitter and others engaged in active suppression of information that was relevant to the public.
00:28:37.000 That's a terrible thing that happened.
00:28:39.000 That's electronic interference.
00:28:40.000 The Russia collusion hoax itself was a conspiracy against the country.
00:28:44.000 It was seditious conspiracy.
00:28:46.000 And we now, I mean, Durham, for all the bitterness I have towards, at least we have now in a 300-page report that it was seditious conspiracy against the United States.
00:28:56.000 And we need more of this.
00:28:58.000 We need more people with power that are running big companies that have lots of money to just start to say this is wrong.
00:29:07.000 But the kicker, Elon acknowledges he might lose money and he's willing to still fight for this.
00:29:15.000 I think that's admirable.
00:29:16.000 And I'll be very honest.
00:29:18.000 Most of your Republican senators that might say a good game, you know, play a good game and say a good thing to you, they don't nearly have as much courage as this.
00:29:26.000 They don't.
00:29:27.000 If we want to save the country, we got to be real.
00:29:30.000 No more happy talk or no more utopian kind of one-liners.
00:29:36.000 If we're serious about saving the country, you must build coalitions.
00:29:42.000 Coalitions require you to sometimes partner with people where you don't see everything 100% the same way.
00:29:48.000 We should never waver on our beliefs.
00:29:52.000 But I think it's exciting that the world's richest man is willing to go on CNBC and call out the idea that conspiracy theories are proven right, that he's willing to call out that there's no proof that the shooter was a white supremacist, that he's willing to call George Soros, who wants to erode the fabric of civilization and hates humanity.
00:30:11.000 We need more defections.
00:30:12.000 We need more discord amongst the elite community.
00:30:15.000 One of the biggest missing pieces the last decade and a half is we look around and we say, where have the wealthy gone?
00:30:23.000 Why are they okay with this?
00:30:26.000 You get a couple to support our grassroots energy, to support the people's movement.
00:30:31.000 We're going to have a real fighting shot.
00:30:33.000 And that's why they have to try to take Elon out.
00:30:35.000 They're going to do everything they possibly can.
00:30:36.000 But honestly, spread them thin.
00:30:38.000 They're going to try to take Trump out.
00:30:39.000 They're going to try to take Bannon out.
00:30:40.000 They're going to try to take this show out.
00:30:41.000 They're going to try to take Elon out.
00:30:42.000 The more, the better.
00:30:44.000 And for that, I think it deserves praise.
00:30:48.000 Okay, there's a clip that's making the rounds here.
00:30:51.000 It's Rana Romney, who runs the RNC on Sean Hannity's program, talking about how Republicans need more money and resources and how the Democrats are outracing us because they invest in the process.
00:31:01.000 I want you to listen to the clip, but look, I know many of you have stopped giving money to the RNC.
00:31:05.000 And I obviously have encouraged you to do that and start supporting groups that are really going to do the clipboard and tennis shoes type of work.
00:31:11.000 Let's play Cut 49.
00:31:13.000 Republicans wait until election year and then they invest.
00:31:16.000 And you have to invest now in the process.
00:31:18.000 You cannot wait.
00:31:21.000 Text Wind 80810.
00:31:23.000 You cannot wait.
00:31:24.000 We need to be getting people on the permanent absentee voter file in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
00:31:29.000 It takes money.
00:31:30.000 You can't wait until the candidates are picked.
00:31:32.000 You have to invest in the process.
00:31:34.000 We need to change the culture in our party.
00:31:36.000 Are you acknowledging that it's not happening now?
00:31:39.000 No, I'm not acknowledging that.
00:31:41.000 We are investing in all these states, minority outreach.
00:31:43.000 Investing should be behind the eight ball.
00:31:45.000 That's my point.
00:31:46.000 No, we are not behind the eight ball.
00:31:48.000 I'm saying we need more money.
00:31:49.000 We need resources.
00:31:50.000 Of course we do.
00:31:51.000 And I will say the Democrats are outraising us 100% because they invest in process.
00:31:56.000 And I talk to voters and donors all the time.
00:31:58.000 They say, I want to see who the candidate is.
00:32:01.000 I'm going to wait to see who the nominee is.
00:32:03.000 You have to invest in both, the process and the nominee.
00:32:06.000 Maybe they shouldn't spend $700,000 on flowers.
00:32:10.000 Maybe they shouldn't spend $17 million on donor mementos.
00:32:15.000 That money would probably be better spent in the Battleground States.
00:32:18.000 Good for Sean Hannity for pushing back, by the way.
00:32:21.000 It's necessary.
00:32:22.000 I am curious, those of you in the audience, are any of you still donating to the RNC?
00:32:27.000 I'm just curious.
00:32:27.000 You can email me freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:32:31.000 If you are convinced that they're really going to do that, she seemed very insistent, you know, text whatever to whatever to help us out.
00:32:39.000 I think, well, look, we need to win the White House in 24.
00:32:42.000 We are behind the eight ball on it.
00:32:47.000 We got to do it without the RNC.
00:32:50.000 I know many of you are refusing to give money and to get engaged and get involved.
00:32:53.000 I'm curious.
00:32:54.000 You can email me freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:32:56.000 Let's play another piece of tape here of this back and forth, which was interesting because Reince Priebus was also on.
00:33:02.000 I got to watch the whole thing.
00:33:03.000 I haven't had a chance to watch the whole clip.
00:33:05.000 We've been talking about that.
00:33:07.000 Okay, let's go to cut 50, please.
00:33:10.000 This is the point if Republicans are not matching the efforts of early voting, mail-in voting, and ballot harvesting, then they are destined to start out Election Day in a big, huge hole, and the odds of them losing are that much greater.
00:33:26.000 And so there, okay, and so there needs to be two things that happen.
00:33:30.000 Segments like tonight, where we educate our voters to end this stupid mentality that you need to wait for Election Day, which is what Rana is doing.
00:33:39.000 And the second thing that we have to do is convince our Uber donors that instead of giving $50 million to a candidate in a primary, take that $50 million, invest it in boring stuff like mechanics, like voter education, voter registration, teams on the ground that are going to collect these ballots.
00:34:02.000 Let me just read a tweet from the great Tyler Boyer.
00:34:06.000 I'll let you guys come up with your own thing.
00:34:07.000 And by the way, this is what we're doing at Turning Point Action.
00:34:10.000 Tyler Boyer has says, quote, did you know that we are in month seven of the 2024 cycle and the RNC, NRSC, and RNCC have made no reasonable investment yet into the state of Arizona.
00:34:20.000 Arizona has a Senate race, four important house districts, and obviously, most importantly, the path to the presidency.
00:34:26.000 I'm curious.
00:34:27.000 Email us freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:34:29.000 Do you have faith in the Republican National Committee?
00:34:32.000 Are you going to keep donating to the RNC when they send you these emails?
00:34:36.000 I sure hope not.
00:34:39.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
