00:00:56.000The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold, the leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends, and viewers.
00:01:09.000All right, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:01:45.000We mentioned because we were talking about sanctuary cities and Abigail Spanberger takes over in Virginia, immediately throws out all cooperation with ICE, which is going to put lives in danger.
00:01:56.000It's going to mean a lot more of those traumatic raids they say are so evil because it's way easier to arrest child rapists, robbers, murderers, et cetera, if you're just able to pick them up at a jail.
00:03:07.000So it was pointed out, they ran in, if you look at October 2025, as election nears, Democrats campaign on high utility bills, energy plans.
00:03:16.000So their campaign was electricity prices are too high.
00:03:34.000Some of that people have heard about already.
00:03:36.000They want to change their house map to be 10 to 1.
00:03:40.000We also have, let's see, we have a bill to reduce the punishments for robbery offenses and it will also reclassify some forms of robbery so they are no longer violent crimes, even if they use violent coercion on people.
00:03:55.000So not a violent crime, which means much lower penalties.
00:03:58.000They want to get rid of Virginia's Republican version of criminal justice where three violent crimes can get you life in prison.
00:04:08.000We have a bill to ban the hand counting of ballots if they are machine readable.
00:04:14.000Just specifically has to be machine counted.
00:04:16.000We have a bill to put out home child-based health care grants.
00:04:22.000Oh, I wonder where they got that idea.
00:04:24.000There won't be any fraud in that at all.
00:04:28.000Democrats in Virginia have introduced a bill that discriminates against white men in government contracting.
00:04:34.000For discretionary contracts under $100,000, white men are barred from even being considered unless there's literally no competition.
00:04:41.000And even then, this bill allows agencies to award contracts to women or minority-owned firms that are 5% more expensive than a bid from a business owned by a white man.
00:04:51.000Yeah, they set a statewide explicit quota goal of having 42% of contracts go to certified small swam businesses.
00:05:00.000I think that is women and minority-owned businesses.
00:05:04.000And they basically have the goal of getting up to 42%.
00:05:08.000And so they have to increase the percent by 3% a year until they reach it.
00:05:13.000And yeah, so the order is give out contracts to people based on the race, on the sex of the owner, even if they cost taxpayers more, even if it's less able to supply that.
00:05:25.000We already know, we know from decades of experience how this works.
00:05:29.000One of the most common ways people fill this is they just create a company and all it does is buy from a better, let's be frank, a better white male-owned company.
00:05:39.000They jack up the price by the amount they're allowed to get away with and they just take that cut as their profits.
00:05:46.000Well, and I don't know if anybody else noticed this, but yesterday was MLK Day, and it was as if it was used as a giant excuse for libs just to say crazy things.
00:06:38.000And you get this same pattern on repeat now in Virginia.
00:06:42.000And it is a precursor of what will happen to the country if we lose power in the midterms, if we, God forbid, lose power in 2028.
00:06:48.000It's a real pattern that has to be recognized, and we have to remind people of it over and over, which is there's much more of a gap between, I believe, what a Republican base might want and what a Republican majority will in practice do.
00:07:06.000Frankly, a lot of our guys flake on stuff in an annoying way.
00:07:39.000And but then what they are going to reliably pass at the state level is basically, I don't know, insane gay race Marxism or whatever that is.
00:07:49.000They do confluence between beta males and Karens.
00:07:53.000And they use the fronts of these soft, progressive white, you know, sort of presentable libs like Spamberger here.
00:08:07.000I thought it boiled it down really well, 277.
00:08:09.000Democrats won Virginia and are going full Marxist.
00:08:11.000Taxes at California levels, banning white men from government contracts, surveilling tech cameras to issue tickets, internet voting, gun bans.
00:08:19.000There is no such thing as a moderate Democrat.
00:08:22.000As an example, so Virginia had a Republican trifecta for a while.
00:08:27.000They, after Dobbs, they did not pass a total abortion ban in the state of Virginia.
00:08:32.000But what they did just the Virginia Senate is passing right now is they're voting to put out a constitutional amendment that would be abortion until birth as a constitutional right in Virginia.
00:08:44.000They're going to go for the absolute maximalist position.
00:09:28.000Yeah, and by the way, yesterday I got all these texts from like some of my people that I wouldn't even call some of them friends, but they're libs going like, how is this a face act violation with Don Lamon going?
00:11:40.000So we're talking about the Virginia example and what it portends for the rest of the country, which is very worrisome because I do think that what we are facing as a country at the state level, federal level, is a reaction to the era of Trump.
00:12:07.000far left, everything in the kitchen sink that they have been dreaming about to dismantle the Western, I think, world order, but the American system of capitalism, of meritocracy, of excellence.
00:12:21.000They want to put a final blow that will potentially make it so that we can never get back.
00:12:32.000On turning point action side, we announced just this morning that we are hiring ballot chasers in three battleground states that we are calling the red wall.
00:12:42.000That is New Hampshire, that is Nevada and Arizona.
00:13:07.000So if you go to tpaction.com forward slash careers, if you want to help us save this republic from this unyielding, unrelenting force of radical progressivism, radical leftism, that's what you can do.
00:15:44.000Not the least because I'm not sure I know the brand of any clothing item that I wear.
00:15:47.000And by the way, that's a group of wealthy black women sitting around a table.
00:15:51.000They're moaning about how racist America is when they are in, let's just be frank, the country that is the best for people of African descent anywhere in the world.
00:17:11.000And then it didn't let them kind of bash America enough, so we had to create another holiday in June to try to out-compete the 4th of July.
00:18:33.000Every single dollar you spend is either supporting your values or working against them.
00:18:38.000In today's economy, where you spend your money, it really matters.
00:18:41.000And that's how we take back our country.

00:19:54.000Another thing that Charlie loved was the state of Kentucky.
00:19:58.000And one of his last endorsements was the great Nate Morris, who is fighting the McConnell machine, and he's doing a great job.
00:20:08.000Big, huge, earth-shattering, send a shockwave through the political world this week.
00:20:15.000Elon Musk has pledged $10 million to Nate Morris' campaign to reclaim a Senate seat for a staunch pro-America, America first candidate in that state.
00:21:53.000I just have a very, I'm very curious about this because one of my favorite parts of your platform is that you're calling for an immigration moratorium.
00:22:00.000I think if we get 10, 15 guys in the Senate on our side and we maintain control, this is actually something that really could be done.
00:22:09.000We just have to get this critical mass in.
00:22:44.000But you and I are more hardline than this.
00:22:47.000And I'm curious how that conversation with Elon went.
00:22:49.000You know, I think Elon, you know, he talked about Western civilization in our meeting, and I think that this is a fight for Western civilization.
00:22:57.000And we have been ingesting people from the third world, people from all over the world that wish to do us harm.
00:23:04.000And Andrew, you know, we can't bring in people that wish to do us harm and think that we're going to get a good result.
00:23:10.000And we've, you know, look at this Somali situation.
00:23:13.000I mean, what an absolute and utter disgrace.
00:23:24.000And Democrats love it because they know this is the only way that they're going to win elections is they've got to flood us with all this illegal population so they can change the composite of our country to go out and win elections.
00:24:08.000It is the absolute greatest honor in the world to be an American citizen.
00:24:12.000And we can't give that out like Mardi Gras beats.
00:24:14.000I mean, this has been crazy what we've done.
00:24:17.000And all these Democrats and all these rhino Republicans who've allowed this nonsense to go on, they should be ashamed of themselves for letting our country get into the place that it's in today.
00:24:30.000And Blake, I would love for you to expound on this, but there is something that happens to a people where you flood the country with foreigners and then it becomes an erasure of our own civilization, of our own culture, and you stop having kids.
00:24:51.000And there are examples of that in history where it's just when a culture, it loses its vitality, it loses its sense of the future, and it just sort of falls apart.
00:25:00.000It's because you don't look around and see that this is your culture anymore, that you control it, that you own it, that you have your own agency over the future of its direction, because you feel like a foreigner in your own home.
00:25:13.000And there's something, I think, weird, and you've seen this in historical models as well, when you hit about 14, 15% foreign-born or immigrant of the total population.
00:25:25.000You saw this in like the 1920s, early 20s, when they instituted massive immigration reforms then.
00:25:32.000Something happens, you know, and I think people have to reclaim a sense of American identity, of American culture, and agency over the future of their country.
00:25:41.000And I think at a deeper level, MAGA is this sort of cry to regain and reconstitute an American identity that is like what we remember growing up, like what we had when we were kids.
00:25:53.000And so I mean, I'm just, I'm thrilled that Elon got behind you in this way.
00:25:58.000And I want you to reflect on kind of some of these stances that, you know, that you have, but what we're seeing in Minnesota as well, which I believe is an existential challenge to the Trump administration about the legitimacy of federal law.
00:26:12.000Can you weigh in on what's happening in Minneapolis, Minnesota more broadly?
00:26:26.000I mean, these people, they have just let these folks run roughshot over them in Minnesota, take advantage of them, get on the system, milk the system, commit all this fraud, and did nothing about it.
00:26:37.000And the Democrats put this guy on their ticket.
00:26:44.000And Andrew, I think that when we get into the particulars of this, we're going to find all throughout the country that all these migrant populations that have come into places like California, Texas, Florida, you name it, even here in Kentucky, there's fraud underneath every bit of that.
00:27:01.000And this has been a scam that Democrats and people have been running to not only flood our system with changing population, but also to get rich and to have these get-rich schemes.
00:27:13.000I mean, gosh, I mean, look at this daycare system.
00:27:15.000I mean, what an absolute and utter disgrace.
00:27:18.000Millions of dollars to start a daycare when we got people in Kentucky that are trying to bust it, trying to make a living, trying to put food on the table and can't even buy groceries.
00:27:28.000And we got Somalis up there getting rich off the daycare system.
00:27:31.000I mean, what is wrong with this picture?
00:27:33.000And this stuff's got to stop once and for all.
00:27:36.000You know, I just talked to my buddy James Comer the other day, and he said, Nate, he said, we're going to haul him before oversight.
00:27:42.000He said, and you're going to find this is going to be the greatest fraud in the history of America.
00:29:01.000You know, there's not really a question in there, Nate, but I'd love for you to respond to that and tell us, give us a sense of where your race is at now.
00:29:09.000Because you've been slowly building in the polls this whole time against a really formidable opponent.
00:29:15.000It's not Mitch McConnell, but it's the machine that he's left that he's leaving in that state.
00:29:20.000Yeah, and Andrew, I'll just first say everybody listening here, we all need to take a look at what's happened in Europe.
00:29:27.000You know, if you want to get a preview for what the play that the Democrats are running, look what's happened to the United Kingdom.
00:29:33.000I mean, my dear friend, Vice President JD Vance said that the UK will be the first nation that's Islamic with a nuclear weapon in the next decade.
00:30:09.000You know, I came in, I started out unknown to the voters of Kentucky because I've never been in politics.
00:30:15.000My two opponents, they've made careers out of politics.
00:30:19.000You know, somebody like Andy Barr has almost been in politics for two decades.
00:30:24.000And we were up against the McConnell machine.
00:30:27.000And they are doing everything that they can to make sure that McConnell's cronies, his lobbyists, his infrastructure, that they've got a horse to ride for another 40 years.
00:30:37.000And this is what this race is all about.
00:32:31.000NATO is, you know, some of our NATO partners are not happy with the pressure campaign that Trump is pushing to acquire Greenland.
00:32:40.000So then all these Davos leaders go over there and they're kind of saying, hey, we love you, the United States, but what you're doing is wrong.
00:32:49.000You can't add new tariffs on top of a deal that was already made.
00:32:53.000And then you've got guys like Macron who are messaging him behind the scenes and then it's not behind the scenes.
00:32:59.000Well, but then he goes, he's wearing sunglasses for some reason.
00:33:02.000I don't understand this, but let's play this clip.
00:33:04.000It's a little hard to understand because of his accent, but we'll break it down on the other side, 290.
00:33:08.000China is welcome, but what we need is more Chinese foreign diet investment in Europe in some key sectors to contribute to our growth, to transfer some technologies, and not just to export towards Europe some devices or produces or produce which sometimes don't have the same standards or are much more subsidized as the one being produced in Europe.
00:33:32.000So you pair this with what's happening in Canada.
00:33:35.000So you got Carney that basically goes, travels over to the CCP, they roll out the red carpet for him, Brave New Era, New World Order.
00:33:44.000China is being welcomed in by the same actors that Trump is challenging.
00:34:09.000And he's asking, instead of just exports that have different standards, lower standards, and are subsidized from China, we want you to invest in Europe.
00:34:20.000That's a huge thing to invite foreign direct investment in Europe.
00:34:24.000With the Greenland thing, an argument that's been made in support of it is basically saying Europe are they're vassals of the United States.
00:34:31.000They're just clients of the United States.
00:34:34.000And Europe is, they are actually quite aware that they've put themselves in a bad spot.
00:34:39.000They've underinvested in their military for a long time.
00:34:41.000They've messed up their own industry and manufacturing.
00:34:44.000Germany, they've really screwed things up.
00:34:47.000And they actually are kind of aware of this.
00:34:49.000They were very aware of it during trade negotiations, and they kind of recognize they're in a weak position here.
00:34:55.000But one thing that they can point out is they can say, okay, we are basically vassals of the United States, but we could, in fact, go be vassals of somebody else and use that as our way to come back.
00:35:07.000And I think it is worth thinking about that, that in the end, we are stronger than Europe.
00:35:12.000And Europe has been a free rider on this.
00:35:15.000And our goal needs to be, I think, to, and this is mentioned in our own, in President Trump's national security strategy that came out a few months ago.
00:35:23.000The goal needs to be that Europe has to take more responsibility for itself, that we want to recultivate Europe as a viable US, as more of an ally rather than just a freeloader.
00:35:36.000And that's important for any number of reasons.
00:35:38.000We talk about Islamization of the West so often on the show because it does matter.
00:35:43.000It really does matter to all of us if Britain, the birthplace of all the liberties that we care about, the birthplace ultimately, the mother country of this one, if it becomes this Islamic dump.
00:35:57.000And it matters the same way if France goes that way, if Germany goes that way, if Denmark goes that way.
00:36:02.000And what we want is we want them to be robust.
00:36:08.000We want them to have to not be having replacement migration.
00:36:11.000We want them to have real economies because we do ultimately, even if they're annoyingly liberal in a lot of ways, we'd prefer to work with them, I think, over China, like a completely alien culture, a completely alien mode of government, one that is far more hostile to human freedom, one that is far more hostile to religion and Christianity.
00:36:38.000And that has a lot of grievances with us.
00:36:41.000And I just think we should be aware of that.
00:36:44.000And we have to think about that with Canada as well.
00:36:47.000Greenland really is important to our national security, but it's also important to our national security if Canada, I think the largest economy in the Americas after us, if they're suddenly just align with China because they decide they're just mad at us.
00:38:28.000I think one thing to worry about is America does have a lot of strengths that derive from how dominant we were for nearly a century at this point.
00:38:39.000That after World War II, we created a financial system that centers around the United States.
00:38:44.000We created a defense system that centers around the United States.
00:38:49.000And we created a trade system that centered around the United States.
00:38:52.000And I think if you were creating any of those things from scratch today, we would not be as powerful in that as we basically are by virtue of inertia.
00:39:02.000So if you inspire the Europeans to, even if they're just throwing a temper tantrum, they throw a temper tantrum and they drift away from the dollar or they drift away from trade with the United States.
00:39:14.000It will be harder to reconstitute that than it is to maintain it.
00:39:17.000That's a classic conservative principle.
00:39:19.000It's easier to maintain things than it is to build them.
00:39:23.000Yeah, and you do have to look at the post-World War II order as a snapshot in time.
00:39:27.000It was a confluence of so many different variables coming together.
00:39:32.000America was largely industrialized, unscathed in many ways on the home front.
