00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk show, who's actually running the Department of Justice?
00:00:04.000 We go through the roster of the people that are maybe pulling the strings of Merrick Garland behind the scenes.
00:00:09.000 It's important to realize it's not just a deep state, it also goes wide.
00:00:12.000 Get involved with Turning PointUSA today at tpusa.com.
00:00:16.000 Start a high school chapter, start a college chapter at tpusa.com.
00:00:20.000 That's tpusa.com.
00:00:22.000 Email me your thoughts as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and support the Charlie Kirk show at charliekirk.com/slash support.
00:00:29.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:30.000 Here we go.
00:00:31.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:33.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:00:35.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:38.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:41.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:42.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:43.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:00:50.000 Turning point USA.
00:00:52.000 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.
00:01:01.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:03.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:12.000 I want to talk about who is running the Department of Justice.
00:01:17.000 I watched Life, Liberty, and Levin last evening with a great one, Mark Levin, and he made a phenomenal point that I want to really expand upon here, which is it's not just Merrick Garland.
00:01:28.000 It's not just Merrick Garland running the Department of Justice who signed off on the warrant.
00:01:33.000 There is a platoon of people around Merrick Garland that are bitter, left-wing, anti-American, anti-constitutional radicals.
00:01:44.000 Lisa Monaco, Vanita Gupta, Kristen Clark, Kenneth Polite, and Matthew Graves.
00:01:53.000 Those are just five of the people behind Merrick Garland that make Merrick Garland look like a moderate.
00:01:59.000 You see, when you dive into the biographies of these people, Lisa Monaco, Vanita Gupta, Kristen Clark, Kenneth Polite, Matthew Graves, you realize that these people have no respect or appreciation for the rule of law.
00:02:12.000 The only currency that they trade in is power.
00:02:16.000 You see, these are the people that are using the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a revenge squad against half the country that they deem to be deplorable or expendable.
00:02:28.000 It's a team of interchangeable parts.
00:02:31.000 They are replaceable.
00:02:33.000 They are expendable.
00:02:34.000 You see, they rely on one another to not be greater or not be more powerful than another.
00:02:43.000 You see, if Merrick Garland gets removed as Attorney General or he resigns, it will just be another even more radical person that will replace him.
00:02:53.000 You see, the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution is very clear, and it was violated explicitly at the raid of Mar-a-Lago.
00:03:02.000 You see, the Fourth Amendment of the United States guarantees against unreasonable searches and seizures.
00:03:12.000 So the Fourth Amendment, if we're very, I'm going to read it right here: the right of the people to be secure in their homes, persons, papers, and effects against the unreasonable search and seizures shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue but upon probable cause supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describe the place to be searched and the person of things.
00:03:38.000 Why do you need privacy?
00:03:41.000 Orwell wrote about this expensively in 1984.
00:03:44.000 If you cannot have privacy, you are not free.
00:03:46.000 The state is able to go through your private musings.
00:03:50.000 At that point, they're able to examine your consciousness.
00:03:54.000 You cannot be a free people without privacy.
00:03:57.000 And for the federal government to be able to come in 270 man hours with 30 FBI agents into Mar-a-Lago and occupy Mar-a-Lago because of a paperwork dispute is outrageous.
00:04:09.000 And we learned what was in the warrant Friday, but the warrant isn't very telling.
00:04:14.000 What we demand is the affidavit.
00:04:16.000 What did you tell the judge as it's so important that it can't wait, that we have to go to Mar-a-Lago this very instant?
00:04:25.000 Was Donald Trump constructing a dirty bomb in the Donald J. Trump presidential ballroom?
00:04:32.000 Was Donald Trump sex trafficking children through Mar-a-Lago?
00:04:35.000 Well, they never raided Jeffrey Epstein's home for that or Bill Clinton's home.
00:04:40.000 Was Donald Trump helping foreign cartels or the Iranian Revolutionary Guard?
00:04:44.000 No, they said that Donald Trump had paperwork that he was supposed to return to the National Archives.
00:04:50.000 Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton widespread destroyed them.
00:04:54.000 Barack Obama has boxes of National Archive records at Martha's Vineyard.
00:05:01.000 No, no, no, no.
00:05:02.000 We know what this was.
00:05:04.000 This was a shot across the bow.
00:05:06.000 This was a shock and awe campaign to show you that you are a subject, not a citizen.
00:05:15.000 Let's play cut five.
00:05:16.000 You have a Department of Justice headed by radical political apparatchiks.
00:05:22.000 Not just Merrick Garland, but under Merrick Garland, names you've probably never heard of before.
00:05:27.000 The Deputy Attorney General is probably the number one Sfangali in the Department of Justice.
00:05:33.000 Lisa Monaco, longtime Obama operative.
00:05:37.000 Vanita Gupta, radical leftist.
00:05:40.000 Kristen Clark, radical leftist.
00:05:43.000 She's the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights.
00:05:45.000 Kenneth Polite, the Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division.
00:05:49.000 And the U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C., Matthew Graves.
00:05:53.000 These people make up the cabal, if you will, the Department of Justice Pullet Bureau that is making decisions about the future of this country and are using the law in a way that we were told would create tyranny.
00:06:06.000 So Kristen Clark, let's focus on her.
00:06:09.000 Kristen Clark, her official title, is the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights.
00:06:15.000 She is part of this Pullet Bureau, as Mark Levin beautifully puts it.
00:06:19.000 Kristen Clark wrote a letter to the Harvard Crimson in her capacity as a black student association leader.
00:06:28.000 She said, please use the following theories and observations to assist you in your search for truth regarding genetic differences between blacks and whites.
00:06:39.000 She's a black supremacist.
00:06:42.000 She said black infants sit, crawl, and walk sooner than whites.
00:06:46.000 She said Dr. Richard King reveals the core of the human brain is locus corrilius, which is a structure that is black because it contains large amounts of neuromelanin, which is essential for its operation.
00:06:59.000 Three, Carol Barnes notes that the human mental process controlled by melanin, that same chemical which gives blacks their superior physical and mental abilities, Kristen Clark goes.
00:07:11.000 So Kristen Clark is not just someone who says, well, I don't like white people.
00:07:15.000 She thinks black people are superior to white people.
00:07:19.000 She said some scientists have revealed that most whites are unable to produce melanin because their penal glands are often calcified or non-functioning.
00:07:28.000 Calcification rates within Africans are 5 to 15 percent.
00:07:32.000 This is a chemical basis for the cultural difference between blacks and whites.
00:07:36.000 She continues, number five, melanin endows blacks with greater mental, physical, and spiritual abilities.
00:07:43.000 Is your current American Attorney General for Civil Rights, the American Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, who's all involved in the activity and the chatter in the raid on Mar-a-Lago, the confiscation of Scott Perry's cell phone, the leg irons on Peter Navarro, the indictment and the conviction of Steve Bannon.
00:08:00.000 This is who's running your government.
00:08:01.000 It's not just about Merrick Garland, everybody.
00:08:03.000 She said at Harvard, crackpot theories like this were considered deranged and dangerous.
00:08:07.000 After an outcry on campus, Kristen Clark suggested she didn't believe what she had written necessarily.
00:08:13.000 But then the left-wing Crimson didn't buy that explanation.
00:08:15.000 They asked her, Well, why did you publish it?
00:08:18.000 And she doesn't answer.
00:08:20.000 That's just one example.
00:08:21.000 We have to understand the left, they've been so deliberate at building a machine within our government.
00:08:28.000 So, yes, we must impeach Merritt Garland.
00:08:30.000 I don't think he's going to make it until January.
00:08:32.000 But it is all of these parts.
00:08:34.000 Lisa Monaco, Vanita Gupta, Kristen Clark, Kenneth Polite, Matthew Graves.
00:08:38.000 And those are just five out of 500 of the radicals in the Department of Justice.
00:08:47.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
00:08:48.000 The recent rulings in the Supreme Court, they didn't happen on their own.
00:08:51.000 It took support of companies like Patriot Mobile who passionately fought on behalf of the unborn and your constitutional rights.
00:08:58.000 Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative mobile phone provider and has been on the front lines fighting for your values.
00:09:04.000 Inflation has really made it hard on Americans.
00:09:07.000 Thankfully, Patriot Mobile has plans for almost any budget.
00:09:11.000 They offer the same nationwide coverage as all the major carriers.
00:09:15.000 You get the same service and your money is going to a company fighting for the sanctity of life, religious liberty, and the Second Amendment.

00:09:48.000 Vinita Gupta is one of the DOJ radicals that is in on the game.
00:09:55.000 We must recognize and remind ourselves that as the administrative state continues to grow in power, the people that are actually putting this forward are ideological believers in the centralization of power and the robbing of sovereignty from the people into the Leviathan, into the state.
00:10:16.000 This is Tom Cotton talking to Vanita Gupta.
00:10:18.000 It's important to refresh ourselves of who exactly is running our government.
00:10:23.000 Play Cut 15.
00:10:24.000 You said we all have implicit biases and racial biases.
00:10:28.000 That's all.
00:10:29.000 Every single American you accused of implicit bias and racial bias.
00:10:33.000 So I'm asking you again, against which racists do you harbor racial bias?
00:10:37.000 I am quite aware that I know that I hold stereotypes that I have to manage.
00:10:42.000 I'm a product of my culture.
00:10:44.000 I believe that all of us are able to manage implicit bias, but only if we can acknowledge our own.
00:10:49.000 And I am not above anyone else in that matter.
00:10:52.000 I think implicit bias is something that is part of the shared human condition.
00:10:57.000 What bias is that, Vanita Gupta?
00:10:59.000 Do you hate?
00:11:00.000 I don't know, Christian white men.
00:11:02.000 Vinita Gupta expresses regret over anti-GOP remarks.
00:11:06.000 Now, who is Vanita Gupta?
00:11:08.000 Vanita Gupta is the assistant associate attorney general, and she is number three at the Department of Justice.
00:11:18.000 Okay.
00:11:19.000 And they say, well, she's the first woman to hold that job.
00:11:21.000 Do you notice that they only care about men and women differences when they can say that it's the first woman to get the job?
00:11:27.000 And they say, whoa, I don't know what a woman is.
00:11:28.000 It's like, really, it's interesting.
00:11:30.000 So you want the woman label for landmarks and for glass ceilings so you guys get credit for it.
00:11:35.000 And then all of a sudden they say, well, there's no such thing as a woman.
00:11:37.000 It's interesting how the term of womanhood or the term of being a woman is rather expendable unless you're trying to get media credit for it.
00:11:47.000 Senate Judiciary Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley said, While Vanita Gupta's nominee for associate attorney general has performed work in the past, her past comments about Republicans gave him concern.
00:12:00.000 Her Twitter feed is painted with Republican, repainted Republicans with a broad bush, describing our national convention last year of three nights of unquote racism, xenophobia, and outrageous lies.
00:12:13.000 Let's put Cut 18 up there.
00:12:15.000 I want to hit this point one time after the other.
00:12:18.000 It's not just about Merrick Garland.
00:12:20.000 It's not just about removing one person.
00:12:22.000 The left has been so clear about staffing our government.
00:12:24.000 Now, you might ask, well, where do they find people like this?
00:12:27.000 These people are moderates compared to the radicals that our universities are producing.
00:12:32.000 When you control the credentialing institutions, colleges like an assembly line, spit people out like Vanita Gupta and Lisa Monaco, who we'll get to in a second, or Kenneth Polite or Matthew Graves.
00:12:45.000 They have a deep bench of radicals.
00:12:47.000 There they are.
00:12:48.000 Those five.
00:12:50.000 We need to broaden our perspective.
00:12:53.000 It's not just about removing Garland.
00:12:55.000 It's not just about removing Majorkis.
00:13:00.000 Top to bottom, they have staffed the government with these people.
00:13:03.000 Now, what is the long-term solution there?
00:13:05.000 Boy, it's going to take work.
00:13:06.000 It's going to take decentralization.
00:13:08.000 It's something I actually talked to Governor DeSantis about yesterday, and he has some very profound thoughts about why are all these agencies headquartered in Washington, D.C., it's something we actually wrote a piece about.
00:13:18.000 Department of Interior, they should be in Colorado.
00:13:21.000 Department of Veteran Affairs, put them in Florida.
00:13:24.000 Department of the Treasury, I guess you could put them in New York.
00:13:28.000 Whatever.
00:13:29.000 Why don't a Department of Agriculture?
00:13:31.000 How about Iowa?
00:13:33.000 The point is, why are all these departments headquartered in Washington, D.C.?
00:13:37.000 If they had to actually live in the country they govern, they might have a much different perspective about the ruin and the incredible damage that they're doing to the bedrock of civil society.
00:13:52.000 If we're serious about taking back the country, we're serious about reinstituting constitutional principles of separation of powers, consent to the governed, presumption of innocence, and how about the restoration of the Fourth Amendment.
00:14:05.000 We got to get serious about staffing and personnel.
00:14:08.000 You see, but the left, they always look after one another.
00:14:11.000 For Lisa Monaco, Vanita Gupta, Kristen Clark, Kenneth Polite, Matthew Graves, they've bought into this machine mentality.
00:14:18.000 This idea of building a machine is very difficult for conservatives.
00:14:21.000 We have too much of a flair for liberty and freedom to say, oh, yeah, you know, I'm going to basically sacrifice my own individual autonomy and my decision-making to be part of a mindless Borg machine that tries to remove and eliminate my political opponents.
00:14:38.000 That's a very difficult thing for conservatives temperamentally and philosophically to engage and believe in.
00:14:44.000 We don't really like tyranny very much.
00:14:46.000 Why would we want to be part of it?
00:14:50.000 Are you like every one of us that thinks our country has gone nuts, whether it's Russia Gate, market crashes, or selling oil to China or this insane inflation?
00:14:59.000 Well, right now, you need a financial mind who understands your concerns, but at the same time has a Christian worldview of money.
00:15:05.000 That's why you should talk to my friends at PAX Financial Group.
00:15:09.000 Look, I've given my money to PAX Financial to Manage.
00:15:11.000 If it's good enough for me, I think it's good for you.
00:15:13.000 Like all of us, they have concerns, but they also have hope.
00:15:16.000 In this market, you must have a financial person who shares your hope and at the same time can help you with biblical, responsible investing, B-R-I, biblical, responsible investing.
00:15:26.000 That's why I want you to text the word Charlie to 74868.
00:15:31.000 That is Charlie to 74868 to connect with my friends at the PAX Financial Group.
00:15:37.000 Biblical responsible investing.
00:15:38.000 So take out your phone.
00:15:39.000 Just text Charlie to 74868.
00:15:41.000 That's 74868.
00:15:43.000 Text Charlie to connect with my great friends at the PAX Financial Group.
00:15:51.000 Why is it that 75% of Americans don't trust their institutions?
00:15:55.000 Do you notice they never acknowledge error or apologize?
00:15:58.000 There's no atonement or repentance.
00:16:00.000 There's no reflection.
00:16:01.000 There's just forward.
00:16:03.000 You see, if a tyrant were to ever admit failure, that would make them question their godlike status in their own eyes.
00:16:10.000 Remember when Peter Strzzokstroke smirk?
00:16:12.000 And yes, that is a rush phrase, by the way.
00:16:15.000 I would just always die laughing when I would listen to the Rush live stream when Rush would say, and Peter Strzokstroke smirk.
00:16:24.000 I said, oh, I love that.
00:16:25.000 Just like you'd say, Chuck Yu Schumer.
00:16:27.000 Oh, I miss him.
00:16:28.000 Alexandria Casio-Cotez.
00:16:32.000 Peter Strzzok wrote, quote, it's like an insurance policy.
00:16:35.000 In the unlikely event, you die before you're 40.
00:16:38.000 What was he talking about?
00:16:39.000 Insurance policy.
00:16:40.000 Did he mean the entire dirty dossier of Christopher Steele illegally obtaining information that was fake to get a FISA warrant to spy on Donald Trump?
00:16:48.000 Remember when Peter Strzzok texted this, quote, I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy's office, Andy McCabe, that there was no way Trump gets elected.
00:16:57.000 But I'm afraid we can't take that risk, FBI counterintelligence official Peter Strzzok wrote in a cryptic text message to Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer and his mistress.
00:17:09.000 Peter Strzok texted in a text sent on October 20th, 2016, he called the Republican candidate a effing idiot.
00:17:17.000 On an August 6th text, he responded to an article shared by Page by replying, F. Trump.
00:17:24.000 He then said, quote, maybe you're meant, Lisa Page, the lover, said, maybe you're meant to stay where you are because you're meant to protect the country from that menace, Lisa Page wrote.
00:17:34.000 Peter Strzzok said, I can protect our country at many levels.
00:17:37.000 Not sure if that helps.
00:17:39.000 And then Lisa Page, or Peter Strzzok said, goodness, Hillary should win $100 million to zero.
00:17:47.000 Now, Peter Strzok's apartment has never been raided by the FBI.
00:17:51.000 Lisa Page's apartment has never been raided by the FBI.
00:17:55.000 They don't have to deal with ongoing investigations.
00:17:57.000 There's Durham, which I think we all know Durham unfortunately is going to result in next to nothing.
00:18:03.000 Maybe I'm wrong.
00:18:03.000 Kash Patel thinks Durham is going to bring it all the way through.
00:18:07.000 We are six years since the crimes that have been committed against Donald Trump and the spying of his campaign.
00:18:13.000 But why would the FBI stop if they're never held accountable?
00:18:18.000 Raids, spying, warrantless wiretapping.
00:18:21.000 Why would they stop their behavior if all they do is get rewarded?
00:18:29.000 Here's Peter Strzokstrok Smirk cut one this morning on MSNBC.
00:18:33.000 Do you know Peter Strzok just gets to go on television freely and loosely?
00:18:38.000 If I'm not mistaken, it might be Lisa Page who's a cable news contributor.
00:18:41.000 No, Andy McCabe is.
00:18:42.000 Andy McCabe is a CNN contributor.
00:18:44.000 These people get protected by the very machine that they use to go after Donald Trump.
00:18:51.000 Subject matter expert.
00:18:52.000 Can you imagine how corrupt to the core you would be to have Peter Strzok come on your morning broadcast?
00:19:04.000 Yes, with expert analysis here, all about abusing federal authority, lying about it, covering it up, and cheating on your wife.
00:19:12.000 Subject matter expert, Peter Strzok.
00:19:14.000 Play cut one.
00:19:16.000 So it's not that the FBI is targeting any one side or the other.
00:19:20.000 What you see is the FBI going out on a day-in-day out basis, objectively investigating allegations of law.
00:19:26.000 That's Peter Strzok.
00:19:28.000 Remember him in his hearing when he was just smirking back and forth?
00:19:32.000 He knows that he's in charge and you're nothing more than a subject.
00:19:35.000 Well, he thinks that, by the way.
00:19:37.000 And yes, I was right.
00:19:38.000 Lisa Page, the lover, joined MSNBC as national security and legal analyst.
00:19:44.000 There is no lack of personnel for them to staff this government.
00:19:48.000 Lisa Monaco, Venita Gupta, Kristen Clark, Kenneth Polite, Matthew Graves, Bruce Ennellior, Andy McCabe, James Comey.
00:19:56.000 Now, for that whole cartel of criminals that ran the FBI previously, none of them have gone to jail.
00:20:02.000 Zero.
00:20:03.000 Now, Durham is poking around, and there is some evidence to show that the very people, as Paul Sperry reported, the very people, they're the same FBI officers who were involved in the Mar-a-Lago raid happen to be the suspects or subjects, I'm sorry, of special counsel John Durham's investigation.
00:20:22.000 Have some of them already been hauled in front of grand juries?
00:20:25.000 We don't know.
00:20:26.000 Paul Sperry believes that with the Mar-a-Lago saga, it looks like the law enforcement apparatus of the federal government is seeking to suppress evidence of its own long-running, continuous criminal enterprise.
00:20:39.000 Paul Sperry wrote, conflicted Department of Justice officials briefed on the Mar-a-Lago raid.
00:20:46.000 Nicholas McQuaid worked at the same law firm with both Hunter Biden's criminal attorney and Michael Sussman's criminal attorney.
00:20:52.000 Lisa Monaco, Obama aide implicated in RussiaGate.
00:20:56.000 Maggie Goodlander, wife of Biden aide Jake Sullivan, implicated in Russia Gate.
00:21:03.000 Are all these people in this massive incestuous relationship?
00:21:08.000 I mean, you know, it's kind of that old expression that you're no more than, what, three or four degrees from Kevin Bacon?
00:21:14.000 Was that the whole joke?
00:21:15.000 Or you're seven degrees removed from Kevin Bacon or something?
00:21:19.000 In Washington, D.C., you're more, you're six degrees from Kevin Bacon.
00:21:22.000 In Washington, D.C., you're no more than one or two degrees away from someone who could get you out of jail.
00:21:28.000 If you have the right politics, if you are part of the Uniparty, if you are part of the machine.
00:21:34.000 Scott Perry, who had his cell phone seized by the FBI the day after the Mar-a-Lago raid, has this to say, play cut six.
00:21:42.000 But Maria, what they think this is about is intimidating anyone who refuses to bend the knee to the narrative.
00:21:50.000 Whether it's Scott Perry, whether it's President Trump, and with passing a bill that will pay for hiring of 87,000 IRS agents, tyranny is going to come right into everyone's living room very, very shortly.
00:22:01.000 Look, Scott Perry voted for the ridiculous anti-states rights, anti-constitutional gay marriage bill.
00:22:08.000 And I'll say this to Scott Perry privately and I'll say it publicly.
00:22:11.000 You are trying to win favors over and you are trying to win people over.
00:22:14.000 Those very same people then come back and confiscate your cell phone.
00:22:18.000 Now, we're going to get the list here.
00:22:20.000 You know, a lot of Republicans voted for these people, by the way.
00:22:23.000 20 Republicans voted for Merrick Garland.
00:22:25.000 A lot of Republicans voted for Monaco, Gupta, Kristen Clark.
00:22:28.000 We're going to get the list.
00:22:29.000 Go to another piece of tape here.
00:22:32.000 Merrick Garland, this was Merrick Garland defending Kristen Clark.
00:22:36.000 They all defend one another.
00:22:37.000 They're this incestuous group.
00:22:39.000 They feel as if they're untouchable.
00:22:42.000 If Republicans are serious about reforming the country, if we're serious about taking back America, effectively dismantling the fourth branch of government, the bureaucracy, is one of the most important tasks in front of us.
00:22:55.000 Play cut nine.
00:22:56.000 Oh, Senator, I've read in the last few days these allegations about Kristen Clark, who I also have gotten to know, who I also trust, who I believe is a person of integrity, whose views about the Civil Rights Division I have discussed with her, and they are in line with my own.
00:23:13.000 I have every reason to want her.
00:23:16.000 She is an experienced former blind prosecutor of hate crimes, and we need somebody like that.
00:23:22.000 Who are the 20 Republicans who voted for Merrick Garland for Attorney General?
00:23:26.000 Roy Blunt, Senator Burr, Senator Capodo, Senator Cassidy from Louisiana, Senator Collins from Maine, Senator Cornyn from Texas.
00:23:36.000 For those of you watching in Texas, I'd love to hear from you.
00:23:38.000 Freedom at CharlieKirk.com.
00:23:40.000 When you went and voted for John Cornyn, did you want John Cornyn to go support people like Merrick Garland as Attorney General?
00:23:49.000 Joni Ernst from Iowa, Lindsey Graham from South Carolina, Chuck Grassley from Iowa, Inhoff from Oklahoma, Ron Johnson from Wisconsin, Lankford from Oklahoma, McConnell from Kentucky, Moran from Kansas, Murkowski, who has a race tomorrow against Shika.
00:24:08.000 Oh, I can't pronounce her name.
00:24:09.000 Shik Baca, right?
00:24:11.000 The T is silent.
00:24:13.000 It's kind of like Django Unchained.
00:24:15.000 The D is silent.
00:24:17.000 Rob Portman, Mitt Romney, Senator Rounds, Senator Thune.
00:24:22.000 What is going on in South Dakota, by the way?
00:24:23.000 What is that all about?
00:24:27.000 I want somebody on the flag radio network to explain to me why Senator Rounds and Senator Thune, but you know what?
00:24:32.000 Good for the two senators from North Dakota for not voting for Merrick Garland.
00:24:36.000 And then Senator Tillis, no surprise there.
00:24:39.000 20 Republicans.
00:24:40.000 What good is the Republican Party if they put people like Merrick Garland in positions of power?
00:24:47.000 Now, their argument will be: this is the typical argument of the right, which drives me up a wall.
00:24:53.000 Let's just put it that way.
00:24:55.000 You know what they would say to you?
00:24:56.000 Well, Charlie, you know, we complained when the Democrats derailed Donald Trump's cabinet nominees.
00:25:01.000 And so we want to be better than that.
00:25:04.000 Do you buy that?
00:25:05.000 Is that what you want to hear?
00:25:07.000 You know, Charlie, they really made things hard for us when they delayed all the cabinet picks.
00:25:12.000 And, you know, a president deserves to have his cabinet.
00:25:16.000 That's what they would say.
00:25:17.000 The consensus of the Republican establishment would be to, well, we need to take the high road against the Democrats when they put people like Merrick Garland in position.
00:25:27.000 By the way, the Merrick Garland saga and scandal is more than just the Mar-a-Lago.
00:25:33.000 They targeted moms and dads showing up at school board meetings.
00:25:36.000 And Merrick Garland himself is personally conflicted with critical race theory ties via his son-in-law.
00:25:43.000 Thankfully, it seems as if we're starting to see more and more whistleblowers are coming forward to expose this corruption.
00:25:49.000 One of the major problems with the FBI, one of the major problems, though, with the Department of Justice, is they administer their own discipline.
00:25:59.000 There is no way to check and balance an FBI agent.
00:26:02.000 Who checks the checkers?
00:26:04.000 It's the same way with fact checkers on social media.
00:26:06.000 How do you check the ultimate power?
00:26:08.000 When was the last time an FBI agent legitimately was held accountable for altering evidence, for faking a FISA warrant?
00:26:17.000 If they are in an untouchable class, if that is the new divide in America, which is the people that can be impacted and the people that are untouchable, what kind of series of behavior does that then create?
00:26:29.000 Play cut 16.
00:26:31.000 So the country, though, the good news is they figured it out.
00:26:33.000 And I'll tell you who else has figured it out, Trey.
00:26:35.000 And you and John, with your background in law enforcement, appreciate this.
00:26:38.000 14 FBI agents have come to our office as whistleblowers, and they are good people.
00:26:44.000 There are lots of good people in the FBI.
00:26:45.000 It's the top that's the problem.
00:26:47.000 But some of these good agents are coming to us telling us this is baloney what's going on, the political nature now of the Justice Department.
00:26:54.000 God bless them for doing it.
00:26:56.000 Come and talk to us about the school board issue, about a whole host of issues.
00:26:59.000 I mean, it's becoming a well-worn trail of agents who say this has got to stop.
00:27:04.000 It's got to be more than stop.
00:27:06.000 People have to go to jail.
00:27:07.000 They need to be fired.
00:27:08.000 They need to have their pensions taken from them.
00:27:10.000 To give you an idea of how hard it is even to change the pension part, Lois Lerner and Andrew McCabe are still receiving their pension.
00:27:20.000 Lois Lerner, who targeted the Tea Party movement, who targeted groups that used the word freedom, liberty, don't tread on me, still gets her full pension.
00:27:29.000 Andrew McCabe still gets his entire pension for being one of the chief architects of Spygate.
00:27:34.000 And Annie McCabe now gets to go on CNN to tell us all about domestic terrorism.
00:27:40.000 What do you then do if your government then becomes the administrator of tyranny?
00:27:46.000 That's something that I know that is a very uncomfortable topic for people.
00:27:49.000 And of course, everything must remain peaceful and lawful and legal, but we got to get very creative on how we the people create an effective check and balance against when government becomes the very thing it's supposed to prevent.
00:28:02.000 Peter Strzok, who should be in jail, continued with Joe Scarborough this morning, who says, of course, Americans should trust what the FBI is doing.
00:28:15.000 Play cut 17.
00:28:16.000 Put that out there.
00:28:17.000 The FBI makes mistakes.
00:28:19.000 The church makes mistakes.
00:28:21.000 People make mistakes.
00:28:23.000 They screw up.
00:28:24.000 Should this be any reason for Americans not trust that what the FBI and the DOJ are doing now is in pursuit of protecting classified documents?
00:28:35.000 Well, Joe, absolutely.
00:28:36.000 The American public should trust what the FBI is doing.
00:28:40.000 The lack of self-awareness, these people, it drives me nuts.
00:28:42.000 I actually think they do this to make me angry.
00:28:45.000 I really do.
00:28:45.000 I think that part of this is they know we're going to lose our mind.
00:28:48.000 This whole thing is like a massive psychological operation where they put Peter Strzzok on there because they know how angry it's going to make us.
00:28:55.000 By the way, we do the same thing as well.
00:28:57.000 We do the same thing.
00:28:58.000 We're like, oh, we're going to put this person out.
00:28:59.000 It's going to drive the media nuts.
00:29:01.000 That's not the only reason we do it.
00:29:02.000 But, and by the way, do you notice how Joe Scarborough just throws the church in there?
00:29:06.000 Let me tell you a difference, Joe Scarborough, of the mistakes the FBI makes.
00:29:10.000 Number one, they're the government.
00:29:13.000 The church is not the government.
00:29:14.000 A corporation is not the government.
00:29:16.000 They have the ability to cover things up and not be held accountable.
00:29:20.000 But the other thing that I just want to reemphasize: have we ever received an acknowledgement of error?
00:29:28.000 And have we ever received an apology?
00:29:32.000 How about from Peter Strzzokstroke Smirk?
00:29:35.000 Just kind of always maneuvering, never apologizing, never admitting what he did was wrong, designing an entire scheme against a duly elected president.
00:29:53.000 For what?
00:29:54.000 For what reason?
00:29:56.000 Donald Trump said this morning, quote, people are so angry at what is taking place.
00:30:01.000 Whatever we can do to help, because the temperature has to be brought down in the country.
00:30:05.000 If it isn't, terrible things are going to happen.
00:30:07.000 Trump is right.
00:30:08.000 Terrible things are about to happen.
00:30:09.000 People are unbelievably angry.
00:30:12.000 And you know what?
00:30:12.000 I'm going to play into that anger because anger can be very clarifying.
00:30:16.000 It must remain peaceful, must remain lawful.
00:30:18.000 But I'm not going to act like this is normal.
00:30:20.000 So many Republicans are texting me, Charlie.
00:30:23.000 You know, we have to no longer be angry.
00:30:27.000 No longer be angry.
00:30:28.000 What do you do then when the other side continuously pokes you in the eye?
00:30:33.000 You're going to lie to yourself?
00:30:35.000 No, we need to start to figure out a way to use the states, the state attorney generals, to actually have a spine to show the other side that there is a cost to their tyranny.
00:30:47.000 Currently, right now, there is no cost to their tyranny.
00:30:51.000 Following this, by the way, just so you know, the Biden regime has issued a domestic terror alert following the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago.
00:31:00.000 All of the language, the institutions, the bureaucracies that they used to use against al-Qaeda, that they used to use against the Taliban, they now use against us.
00:31:12.000 We are rightly upset.
00:31:14.000 They openly want to criminalize us.
00:31:16.000 And as their subject matter expert, they bring the very man who designed this pattern of behavior, Peter Strzzok, to tell you everything is just fine.
00:31:29.000 They crossed the Rubicon.
00:31:30.000 They invaded our country.
00:31:32.000 How we respond is yet to be determined.
00:31:36.000 But I can tell you this, it has to be more than just press releases and waiting to the next election.
00:31:41.000 I want your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:31:43.000 Are you comfortable just waiting to the next election?
00:31:47.000 I'm afraid something bad's going to happen if we do not bring down the temperature in this country.
00:31:51.000 And boy, do we need that.
00:31:54.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
00:31:55.000 Email me your thoughts as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:31:58.000 Thanks so much.
