00:01:51.000We're still going to Waco, Texas next week.
00:01:53.000We're going to Boise, University of Oregon, University of Vermont, University of Alabama, Roll Time, and Clemson University, tpusa.com/slash CRT, because our entire tour is themed around pushing back against CRT.
00:02:10.000If you guys want to get tickets to that, you can go there and also email us, freedom at charliekirk.com if you have difficulty or trouble getting tickets.
00:02:17.000And then finally, with Turning Point USA, you guys have got to go.
00:02:25.000December 18, 19, 2021, America Fest, everybody, the largest pro-American celebration in the history of the country.
00:02:33.000That's our story, and we're sticking with it.
00:02:35.000Go to tpusa.com slash amfest, tpusa.com/slash am fest.
00:02:41.000I'm telling you, the speakers that are just about to be announced, the musical artists that are going to be announced, you're going to wish you bought tickets early.
00:03:31.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:04:20.000I have learned over the years, do not report on these stories until we know exactly what's going on and all the context surrounding it.
00:04:30.000And so we're going to wait for that as there seems to be a school shooting of multiple people shot in Arlington, Texas, that is right near Dallas, Texas, as that story continues to unfold.
00:04:43.000And so there's a lot of stories I want to get to this hour, including Merrick Garland and the Attorney General of the United States, who might have another motive for why he's deploying the Federal Bureau of Investigation against school board parents or against parents that are challenging school boards.
00:05:03.000And this is a story that was breaking in the last couple of days where we saw the National School Board Association of America come out, demand that the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the federal government go after what they call domestic terrorists.
00:05:20.000And so here's a really simple question is, have you heard of a bombing at a school board meeting in the last year?
00:05:30.000No, they had in the memo from Merrick Garland, they had the following, that there was intimidation, harassment, and violence.
00:05:39.000What exactly, how exactly do they classify intimidation and harassment?
00:05:47.000So Merrick Garland issues this memo saying that he is going to use the full force of the federal government to come after regular everyday parents that dare speak out and say that they do not want their children learning critical race theory with their money and their kids.
00:06:05.000And so what we are now learning is that Merrick Garland might be financially incentivized to do this.
00:06:16.000Merrick Garland's daughter is married to the co-founder of the education company who is selling critical race theory resources materials to school districts.
00:06:29.000So Merrick Garland's family, his potential grandchildren, I don't know if they have grandchildren or not, and his daughter, Rebecca Garland, who's married to this guy, Zan Tanner, they look like the absolute stereotypical liberal metropolitan college educated couple.
00:06:49.000It's like if you were just to kind of create a poster child of kind of what college produces, it's right there.
00:06:57.000And so this guy runs this company, this systemic social emotional learning project.
00:07:04.000The New York Times celebrated their marriage.
00:07:09.000Now, here's just a good rule for life.
00:07:11.000If the New York Times is celebrating your marriage with a whole page, either you have really powerful parents or you're doing something that's not good for the country or civilization.
00:07:21.000They got a whole page in the New York Times where it says, Mr. Tanner is known as Jan.
00:07:27.000He is the founder and president of Panorama Education and an analytical software and services company in Boston.
00:07:46.000They first met in summer camp in Colorado.
00:07:49.000This whole thing is like, why exactly is this necessary for the New York Times?
00:07:53.000Like, oh, okay, he's marrying into the Garland family.
00:07:57.000And this was during a time when Merrick Garland, right afterwards, he was denied his seat on the Supreme Court and he was a federal judge.
00:08:04.000And he was within the tickler file or the blue book of then becoming possibly the Attorney General of the United States.
00:08:12.000And so then when you go to Panorama's website, Panorama Education, which is the actual supply company that supplies the education material or all this CRT stuff with workbooks, the textbooks, who's the co-founder?
00:08:30.000And so then you go to the website of the Panorama Education Services link and it says measure and understand social and emotional learning.
00:08:40.000Panorama Education, which has built out K through 12 education software platform, has raised $60 million in a Series C round of funding.
00:08:52.000All of a sudden, all the forces combine together.
00:08:55.000Where existing backers are the Emerson Collective.
00:08:59.000Now, we've talked about the Emerson Collective before in this program.
00:09:02.000The Emerson Collective is a dark money, multi-billion dollar group founded and led.
00:09:08.000I don't know if it was founded, but it's largely led and financed by Lorene Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs' widow, inherited $20 billion, didn't earn any of it, and has decided to use her wealth to destroy Western civilization.
00:09:23.000But then it gets even more interesting.
00:09:26.000Existing backer is also the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.
00:09:31.000So Mark Zuckerberg is funding the very company that Merrick Garland's family is going to be benefiting from, where now he's deploying the federal government Pretorian Guard to go after parents.
00:09:45.000This is all thanks to the conservativetreehouse.com.
00:09:48.000I think they were the first website to uncover this, and I just want to make them for this.
00:09:54.000Panorama continues to go into this, and they say over 50 of the 100 largest school districts and state agencies in the country use this platform.
00:10:04.000In total, more than 1,500 school districts are among its customers.
00:10:08.000Clients include the New York City Department of Education, the Clark County School District in Nevada, and Dallas Independent School District in Texas, and the Hawaii Department of Education, amongst others.
00:10:21.000Since March of 2020, Panorama has added 700 more school districts to its customer base, nearly doubling the 800 it just served 18 months prior.
00:10:33.000Jan Tanner, the co-founder of the company, started the company in an effort to figure out the best way for schools to collect and understand feedback from their parents.
00:10:42.000But you go to the very website of Panorama Education, you realize that this is an online portal to be able to better teach children bigotry, hatred, racism, and critical race theory.
00:11:12.000And you go to the front of the Panorama website.
00:11:17.000It says all of the data that you need to succeed.
00:11:22.000But then you dive deeper into this and you realize that every single one of these awful ideas is now made possible thanks to the profit motive of the Garland family.
00:11:33.000This is partly what parents are speaking out against when they go to these school board meetings.
00:11:41.000There's a conflict of interest here, clearly, as his daughter is now married into the family and is part of the family of the company that parents are speaking out against.
00:11:57.000We're just going to send the FBI and intimidate and chill future speech.
00:12:05.000Since September 2021, it's just last month, Panorama Education Zan Tanner raised $60 million to expand operations.
00:12:14.000His father-in-law, Merrick Garland, then tells the FBI to investigate any potential parental interference or disruption that might impede his daughter and son-in-law's business interests.
00:12:27.000You know, we used to have laws against this sort of stuff.
00:12:31.000It's the same thing how Joe Biden creates Chinese policy to benefit his family.
00:12:38.000It's the same thing how Hunter Biden says that, oh, I don't know who's buying my art, even though breaking news story shows today, he's hanging out with the people that are buying his art.
00:12:47.000But always follow the money, everybody.
00:12:49.000That there is a profit motive and there's an incentive behind the clampdown.
00:12:55.000And Merrick Garland, being a scorned man, is using federal police, the FBI, to go after you, regular parents, so that his family could potentially remain rich.
00:13:12.000Look, more than half the country is currently on a high-deductible health insurance plan and on the hook for thousands of dollars of deductibles, copay, and sky-high premiums.
00:13:22.000For many people in the United States, concerned about the cost of health insurance, there are no good options.
00:13:28.000You either go uninsured or you pay through the nose for a high-deductible plan with very questionable coverage, all because of a broken health insurance system.
00:13:39.000It's like being stuck with an outdated cable TV plan and not knowing about Netflix.
00:13:44.000I want to introduce to you CrowdHealth.
00:14:25.000We're a community of health-conscious members who want to get and stay healthy in return for lower prices.
00:14:30.000100% of your monthly membership pays for actual health care costs, helping the whole crowd health community stay healthy while keeping more money in your pocket.
00:16:35.000So, murders are up 30% in the last year.
00:16:39.000And Merrick Garland instead issues a directive saying that we're not going to go try to find the spike in violent crime, like the abolishing police force, BLM Incorporated, how these ideas of CRT are actually resulting in more people being dead.
00:16:57.000No, instead, he wants to issue a press release or a memo directing the federal government to go after domestic political enemies that they don't like.
00:17:10.000Instead of trying to convince people of a certain viewpoint, they want to go to force.
00:17:17.000We've talked about this many times on our program.
00:17:19.000There are two ways that you can organize society.
00:17:23.000Every government can be put into one of these two buckets: either it's a government that has an emphasis on speech or a government that has an emphasis on force.
00:17:37.000The left is done talking, they don't want to talk.
00:17:42.000Instead, they're willing to use armed federal agents to go after moms and dads, like in Cut 54, parents that are speaking out at school board meetings, according to the National School Board Association and your federal government.
00:18:00.000BLM, they are not domestic terrorists, not even close.
00:18:05.000The cartel, no memo issued about the cartel.
00:18:09.000How about gangbangers in inner cities?
00:18:20.000In March, my child had to watch a TED Talk in English class, not on anything related to English, but rather oppression and acknowledging privilege.
00:18:28.000Any parent with a pulse knows that this is wrong.
00:18:32.000Why has public school become so mired in extremist politics and a permissive culture that seems to celebrate the latest popular fads like gender fluidity?
00:18:43.000And we oppose your efforts to impose critical race theory, an overtly racist doctrine that teaches our children to judge and categorize others based solely on the color of their skin.
00:18:57.000Your government believes that mother is a domestic terrorist.
00:19:02.000And I have many people asking us, emailing us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:19:07.000Well, Charlie, what can be done about this?
00:19:11.000I do have to say that I think Republicans have handled this better than I've seen most issues.
00:19:19.000The FBI is completely and totally out of control.
00:19:22.000The Department of Justice does whatever they want to do.
00:19:25.000The National School Board Association of America is a major donor to the Democrat Party.
00:19:31.000We have been calling for school board involvement for years on this program, and no one really seemed that interested in it.
00:19:39.000But up until recently, because of the graphic sexual education curriculum, masks, the double standard, the vaccine mandates, and then critical race theory, parents started to say, wait a second, these are our kids and our dollars.
00:20:07.000The people that have been indoctrinating our children have asked the federal government for a bailout and a line of protection because they know what they are doing is completely and totally indefensible.
00:20:18.000You can have a country prioritize force or speech.
00:20:23.000And the current regime is willing to march armed federal agents into school boards to stop moms and dads from complaining about what's happening at their schools.
00:20:37.000Hey, everybody, I want you to imagine over 100,000 Americans losing their jobs.
00:20:41.000Well, you could stop imagining because it's reality, everybody.
00:20:43.000Since 2015, over 100,000 independent farms and ranches in the United States have shut down.
00:21:01.000And that's what Good Ranchers does so well.
00:21:03.000They exist to support local American farms that help you make great American meals.
00:21:07.000Together, they want to restore the American ranch and your meals to the former glory.
00:21:12.000Get the beef, chicken, and seafood that cannot be imported or matched at goodranchers.com.
00:21:17.000Did you know that the product of USA TAG has been stolen by foreign countries?
00:21:21.000They process their meat here and then label it like it came from America fraudulently because of these labeling laws that favor foreign imported meat.
00:21:29.000Over 100,000 independent American farms and ranches have closed since 2015.
00:21:33.000Good Ranchers is here to put America first at the dinner table and the ranchers that have worked to raise the meat we eat.
00:21:41.000Everyone listening to this needs to eat and feed their family.
00:21:44.000And if you want to support our program, if you like the Charlie Kirk show, you can kill two birds, one stone.
00:21:48.000Buy really good meat and get food because you have to eat anyway and support our program at goodranchers.com slash Charlie right now and save $20 off.
00:21:56.000Or better yet, subscribe and save the box of Mount Watering meats.
00:21:59.000I'm telling you, they send us these meats and there is a fight over who gets the perfectly marbled filet mignon or the marinated chicken.
00:22:09.000It is a beautiful sight when the box of meats arrive at our office.
00:22:18.000Everything just seems a little bit lighter and brighter.
00:22:22.000In fact, the day gets better when the Good Ranchers box arrives because you know with the beautiful Phoenix weather, you can watch some college football, throw a couple steaks on the grill, turn up the volume, and enjoy being an American because you're eating American meat, not Chinese meat, not Argentinian meat, not Vietnamese meat, not Iranian meat, not Egyptian meat, but instead American meat.
00:22:51.000So save on each box of Mount Watering American meats.
00:23:35.000I remember having this big discussion.
00:23:37.000As I look back at kind of my education, it's kind of interesting that I grew up in a country where every year our freedoms evaporated more.
00:23:51.000And so in eighth grade, I remember our teacher walked us through the Patriot Act.
00:23:56.000And again, they have all these like really silly names, these acronyms.
00:24:00.000So the Patriot Act is really the uniting and strengthening America by providing appropriate tools required to intercept and obstruct terrorism.
00:24:07.000USA Patriot Act, they always try to make this kind of an acronym.
00:24:12.000Kind of over that whole thing, to be honest.
00:24:14.000It's a little, it's too cute by a mile, if you ask me.
00:24:17.000I remember, though, that basically the way the teacher framed it was that if you're a Democrat, you're against the Patriot Act, but if you are a Republican, you are for the Patriot Act.
00:24:29.000And so I was more conservative than not as an eighth grader.
00:24:32.000I loved the country and I was tired of my teachers telling me America was terrible.
00:24:35.000So I felt this kind of need to go put on the team right jersey and defend something that kind of felt kind of weird at the time, quite honestly.
00:24:45.000And by the way, back in eighth grade, I had not yet discovered Rush Limbaugh.
00:24:50.000And kind of the full extent of my kind of political philosophy was just kind of reading whatever conservative books they had, which I think was like a biography on George W. Bush.
00:25:01.000So that was about, that was about the extent of what my school had as far as conservative literature.
00:25:06.000There's hardly a hardly the sort of incredible access to information that eighth graders have now today, where they have podcasts like ours, the Charlie Kirk show, they have Trucker Carlson, they have an incredible amount of library of content, all the work we're doing at Turning Point USA.
00:25:27.000Didn't have any of that when I was in eighth grade.
00:25:29.000We didn't have smartphones when I was in eighth grade.
00:26:08.000And that was the end of the discussion.
00:26:10.000And again, it's not my teacher's fault.
00:26:11.000You know, it's not for them to answer it.
00:26:13.000But then every time this idea of domestic surveillance came up, team right, the people on the conservative side, we always felt the need to try and defend this vast security apparatus where it was not constitutional.
00:26:32.000It was definitely never well explained.
00:26:34.000And you have people like Lindsey Graham who love the Patriot Act, who just live to make sure the Patriot Act exists.
00:26:42.000But then the Tea Party movement comes, and there's kind of this resurgence of the love of the United States Constitution.
00:26:51.000And as the Tea Party movement kind of accelerated, all of a sudden you started to have more elected officials like Rand Paul and Ron Paul before him, who was in Congress for quite some time, asked questions: who are we spying on?
00:27:13.000So I thought it would be helpful as we are now entertaining, using the Patriot Act against parents, what actually is in the Patriot Act?
00:27:25.000Expanded surveillance abilities of law enforcement, including wiretapping your communications and phones, increased penalties for terrorism crimes, and expanded list of activities that would qualify for terrorism charges.
00:27:42.000Then, if you speak out at a school board meeting, what if they're able to fit the Patriot Act criminal code into you being a potential threat against the country?
00:27:56.000Eased interagency communication to allow federal agencies to more effectively use all available resources in counter-terrorism units efforts, I should say.
00:28:08.000So, you go through all of this, you realize every provision of the Patriot Act, this is an unprecedented expansion of the security state.
00:28:19.000This should not even be a controversial issue amongst conservatives, especially after Donald Trump was spied on illegally using the very apparatus that was established thanks to the Foreign Domestic Surveillance Act or the foreign, the FISA court of a president, a person that was running for president, was president-elected United States, that is spied on by his own government.
00:28:43.000In the enhanced surveillance procedures, which is Title II of the Patriot Act, it basically says that there are these packet switch networks or the Electronic Privacy Information Center or EPIC that exists, and this creation of a domestic spy agency on you.
00:29:05.000Now, all of this was suspected until a man who I consider him to be a very complicated person.
00:29:42.000Do I think that Edward Snowden, however, to use the counterargument against it, had to leak this information as broadly as possible to try to give people the information so that they could actually understand the leviathan of the security state?
00:30:00.000And so you go through the details of the United States Patriot Act, and then you see the National School Board Association calling on the federal government, Merrick Garland, agreeing.
00:30:10.000And Rand Paul and Ron Paul have been warning against this abuse for quite some time that it will just be a matter of time before this security apparatus will be used against political dissidents.
00:30:23.000And we saw a preview of that with Donald Trump.
00:30:27.000We saw a little bit of a coming attraction trailer.
00:30:33.000They will not be able to help themselves, but to use the power of the federal government to try to crush you.
00:30:43.000Made phone calls, and all there's Senator Rand Paul once again having a filibuster moment, leading a 10-hour talk-a-thon against renewal of key provisions of the Patriot Act.
00:30:54.000And I will not let the Patriot Act, the most unpatriotic of acts, go unchallenged.
00:31:01.000So the American people say, enough's enough.
00:31:28.000Rand Paul and a couple others, Mike Lee, and bizarrely enough, Bernie Sanders, I think, was a huge critic of the Patriot Act, which always kind of perplexes me, where it's like, oh, yeah, we want government to do everything for you.
00:31:43.000And by the way, we're really worried about government overreach.
00:31:45.000I said, if you're so worried about government overreach, why do you want the government to run your health care, your schools?
00:31:52.000And, you know, Tucker Carlson said last night, he said, any rational or thinking person that used to be for the Patriot Act and now looks at what it's become should call for the total and complete repeal of it.
00:32:06.000But that's not going to happen anytime soon.
00:32:08.000Because most, almost all Democrats, except a couple, but almost all Republicans are equally tied to the intelligence agencies.
00:32:18.000Look really carefully and closely at your elected official.
00:32:22.000Are they calling for the FBI, the FISA courts, and for the Patriot Act to be repealed?
00:32:29.000Because they see what's happening right now.
00:32:31.000And they see that if you espouse a certain political viewpoint, then they're coming after you.
00:32:39.000Look, I often talk about the crushing debt and lack of jobs that come with the broken college system in our country and how entering a trade or vocational school can provide great career opportunities where your skills will always be in demand.
00:32:53.000I want to talk to you about the American Institute of Non-Destructive Testing.
00:32:58.000If you go to trainingndt.com, that's trainingndt.com, you can learn how to have an opportunity to work in industries such as aerospace, oil, gas, nuclear, and alternative energy as a technician performing critical inspections that make our world a safer place.
00:33:14.000The American Institute of Non-Destructive Testing provides 93% job placement, and graduates enjoy a starting wage of about $50,000 a year.
00:33:23.000You can earn $60,000, $70,000, or even $80,000 yearly within a couple years as a technician.
00:33:28.000Their program consists of six months online education followed by three weeks at the American Institute campus using state-of-the-art inspection equipment such as ultrasonics, capturing x-rays, and producing magnetic fields to inspect critical components to ensure their safety and reliability.
00:33:42.000If you're looking for a career shift or if you are in high school and you're not sure what you want to do, I want you to know that Don Booth, the CEO, is a patriot and his whole team cares deeply about the future of every graduate.
00:33:54.000Go to trainingndt.com to learn about this exciting and rewarding career.
00:34:17.000We're getting some people emailing us.
00:34:18.000Charlie, you should think about your listeners.
00:34:20.000It's a joke how I get under producer Andrew's skin because he passive aggressively sent me the duck score after they blew the most winnable football game in the history of the planet against the Stanford Cardinal.
00:34:55.000All right, I want to close this one point here, which I think is really important.
00:35:00.000Let's go to Senator Josh Hawley, Cut 50 on Tucker Carlson, discussing the Department of Justice being weaponized against concerned parents.
00:35:06.000Let me just say, as our last two stops, this is all such perfect timing.
00:35:10.000At Turning Point USA, we did our campus stop at Mitt University, Michigan and University of Minnesota Mankato.
00:35:17.000And the parents that showed up, it's mostly students, but there are some people from the community that show up to these events.
00:35:23.000The amount of concern and worry that they now have that the federal government is going to be criminalizing their speech, it's intentional.
00:35:29.000The Biden regime knows that what these parents are doing is legal, but instead they want to instill paranoia.
00:35:36.000They want to instill the sword of Damocles.
00:35:39.000I'm going to tell you what the sword of Damocles is.
00:35:43.000It's a story from thousands of years ago, which is exactly what Joe Biden wants us to believe and operate.
00:35:51.000Let's play Josh Hawley first, and I'll tell you about the sword of Damocles.
00:35:55.000Well, you could imagine, Tucker, some things that FBI agents could be doing, like maybe going to the border where we have an unprecedented surge of crime, of illegal immigration, of drug smuggling.
00:36:05.000But no, instead, we're going to go after parents.
00:36:07.000I mean, can I just say, you know, that you've lost the argument when you are sending FBI agents to try and silence voting, taxpaying parents, trying to silence them.
00:36:18.000I mean, I can't think of an instance in American history when anything like this has happened before.
00:36:22.000It's another first for Joe Biden, and it's a bad one.
00:36:25.000And so what they want you to believe is that there is a sword hanging by a thread above your existence.
00:36:35.000So this sword of Damocles was a parable, and it became a motif in medieval literature.
00:36:43.000And basically, this is the quote from Cicero, who was a one-year Roman consul who was phenomenal.
00:36:49.000He was actually killed right near the time of Julius Caesar's death.
00:36:53.000And Julius Caesar had this beautiful quote where he said, the more laws, the less justice.
00:37:02.000But Cicero wrote about the tale of Damocles and represented the idea that those in power always labor under the specter of anxiety and death, and that, quote, there can be no happiness for the one who is under constant apprehensions.
00:37:20.000And so every man, woman, and child who lives under a nuclear sword of Damocles hanging by the slenderest of threads, capable of being cut at any moment by accident or miscalculation or madness.
00:37:34.000That was a speech that John F. Kennedy gave to the United Nations back in 1961, talking about nuclear weapons.
00:37:42.000But essentially, if you get the visual, there's like the sword hanging from the ceiling by a thread, and they want every parent who shows up at the school board meeting to be afraid that at any moment that sword could drop from the ceiling and drop on you and metaphorically or possibly end your life by putting you in prison.
00:37:58.000Let me read this again: that no man can be free under the labor or the anxiety of constant apprehension or penalty.
00:38:09.000They want people to have nervous glances of the blade dangling above them, worried that the FBI is going to come marching in at 3 o'clock in the morning of their home because they dared complained about critical race theory.
00:38:29.000They don't have as much power as they pretend to have.
00:38:32.000Do you think we should abolish South Dakota?
00:38:35.000Now, many of you probably driving right now or listening in either North or South Dakota, you say, what on earth are you talking about?
00:38:41.000What kind of crazy conjecture is that?
00:38:43.000Well, the new republic, which is the new repugnant, repugnant, it's a these, these are, it's kind of like the Atlantic, but a little bit more vulgar.
00:38:57.000Yeah, we'd say a little bit more vulgar than the Atlantic, where they kind of float these ideas and some of them actually become policy eventually.
00:39:07.000Obviously, this idea is mildly unrealistic, but it also is very revealing.
00:39:13.000I like focusing on some of these stories at times because you can realize what these people are saying in their private text messages because they decide they then write articles about it.
00:39:23.000And this goes to show that not only do they believe that the middle part of our country are deplorables, that they are the smelly Walmart people, they are quite honestly, what was the last word that?
00:40:12.000It goes into some history about how the French stole South Dakota in 1743.
00:40:18.000After that, America, you know, because we bought in the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, we were able to include the 828,000 square miles that were sold to Thomas Jefferson.
00:40:35.000And allegedly, no one paid much attention to North or South Dakota.
00:40:38.000But this really kind of goes to the question of self-government.
00:40:42.000We're doing our program right now from Minnesota, which neighbors South Dakota and North Dakota.
00:40:52.000Why not just make one big state that is Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, North Dakota, make that all one state?
00:41:00.000Why divide it into five separate states?
00:41:03.000Well, despite the obvious reason where you form a government for the purpose of managing your land, your people, and your fellow countrymen, is that local government is, in many different instances, far superior to a national federalized system.
00:41:27.000That the decentralization of power has actually kept America more free.
00:41:31.000I want you to imagine what America would look like if there was only one Dakota, no Nebraska, no Kansas, no Wyoming, no Montana.
00:41:39.000What would the United States Senate look like right now?
00:41:43.000Now, some people accuse me of making a nakedly partisan argument when I say that.
00:41:47.000Let's forget partisanship for a second.
00:41:51.000The founding fathers believe that there must be an intentional and deliberate balance between the rural and urban aspects of American society.
00:42:03.000James Madison famously said that urban life will be prone to rumor with a spice of madness, that it's the farmer, the agrarian, and the rural worker and community that is intentional, deliberate, prudent, patient, an understanding of what it takes to be a citizen of a great nation.
00:42:30.000The less rural America has been the last 30 or 40 years, the more secular we have become, the more dangerous our society has become, and dare I say, the less free we have actually become.
00:42:44.000And so, an emphasis of a balance between the people of Manhattan and the people of Rapid City, South Dakota is moral and it's necessary.
00:42:53.000Now, the left doesn't like this, which is why they have wrote this article for the new republic.
00:42:58.000We must abolish South Dakota altogether.
00:43:03.000Meaning, we don't like what South Dakota is doing, and we really don't like the fact that South Dakota gets representatives in Washington, D.C.
00:43:12.000They're making the political argument.
00:43:15.000They don't like the fact that a state like South Dakota or North Dakota has a say.
00:43:20.000Now, interestingly enough, they never want to abolish statehood for Vermont or Rhode Island that have similar and comparable population totals.
00:43:48.000Which, by the way, if you go back into American history, Rhode Island was always, alongside South Carolina for different reasons, the most disagreeable territory and state and colony.
00:44:01.000In fact, many of the founding fathers used to call Rhode Island rogue island.
00:44:06.000Rhode Island was the last state to begrudgingly and reluctantly ratify the United States Constitution.
00:44:59.000So, if you take the population of Rhode Island and Vermont and the population of South Dakota and North Dakota, it's almost an identical number.
00:45:09.000Meanwhile, Delaware has a population of 973,000 people.
00:45:14.000This is exactly why they want statehood for Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.
00:45:18.000And they want to get rid of statehood for South Dakota.
00:45:22.000You see, a federal compact as it is today means that you must have independent sovereign statehood before you can get accepted into the United States Senate and you can send representatives into Washington, D.C.
00:45:35.000This is one of my biggest complaints right now with Republicans: the misunderstanding of the constitutional tradition.
00:45:42.000Why don't we break California into a couple different states?
00:45:44.00036 million people, way too many people.
00:45:47.000Why don't we break New York into four or five different states?
00:45:49.000I'd actually be for all these things, by the way.
00:45:51.000I think the more you break up some of these states that are far too big and incredibly overpopulated-not overpopulated in the sense that they have too many people, but I think that they're weighted in the sense that Manhattan rules the rest of New York.
00:46:10.000But it's, of course, up to the states to be able to appropriate their own boundaries, their own lines, because the way the American system works, which the new republic refuses to acknowledge, the progressive publication that basically wants power and an acceleration of America's decline to usher in exactly what remains to be seen, is that decentralization gets in their way.
00:46:37.000Woodrow Wilson, who was basically the first legitimate anti-American president in American history, we spent a lot of time on Woodrow Wilson.
00:46:45.000He was president of Princeton University, the only PhD to ever become president of the United States, the only doctor ever to become president, one of America's worst presidents, passed the income tax, the Federal Reserve Act, and also got rid of the direct election of senators.
00:46:59.000Woodrow Wilson said one aspect of the American system frustrated him, frustrated him more than any other: separation of powers.
00:47:19.000Well, the founders intentionally separated power because they knew that, as Lord Acton said, and many of you can repeat this quote, but repetition is the soul of memory, that absolute power corrupts absolutely.
00:47:29.000That one man controlling too much is not good for anyone.
00:47:34.000Therefore, separation of powers paired with checks and balances, independent judiciary, and the consent of the governed.
00:47:39.000The four aspects of the American constitutional system put together make things slow and deliberate and intentionally difficult to revolutionize the country.
00:47:49.000South Dakota stands in the way, and so does North Dakota.
00:47:52.000The fact that Dakotas have statehood, sovereignty, which pre-existed their entrance into the federal government, South Dakota is not getting abolished anytime soon, despite the wishes of the left.
00:48:06.000Hey, everybody, there's so much going on in the world.
00:48:08.000And whether it's stuff you're excited about or things that you don't want to think about, like everything that comes out of Joe Biden's mouth, you can't always control what's going on out there, but you can control what's going on in your head as far as what you're listening to with a pair of Raycon wireless earbuds in your ears.
00:48:26.000My Raycons have traveled all over the country.
00:48:29.000In fact, Mikey on our team is an incredibly avid and passionate Raycon fan.
00:48:35.000In fact, this came up the other day, and he just started saying, Do you understand how good Raycon earbuds are?
00:48:42.000I agreed, of course, because wherever you use them, they work really well.
00:48:46.000Whether you wind down, work, or work out, Raycons are my go-to and Mikey's go-to for on-the-go audio.
00:48:54.000And the new everyday earbuds look, feel, and sound better than ever with an improved rubber oil look, feel, and optimized gel tips, the perfect in-your-fit.
00:49:03.000They're impressive before you even start listening.
00:49:06.000You get three new sound profiles to make sure everything you're listening to sounds its best with just the right amount of bass.
00:49:13.000They have the pure mode, the balanced mode, and the bass mode.
00:49:17.000And there's also an all-new awareness mode where you need to listen to your surroundings around you.
00:49:22.000Maybe you're boarding a plane and you do eventually, once you get on the plane, you could turn it on to kind of the total sound out mode, but maybe you need to listen when you're boarding all the announcements.
00:49:31.000But here, here's the thing: Raycon offers eight hours of playtime and 32 hours of battery life.
00:49:39.000There's also built-in mic, and you could take your calls and your earbuds at the press of a button.
00:49:44.000Raycons start at half the price of other premium and audio brands, but they sound just as good.
00:49:49.000And Raycons come with a 45-day happiness guarantee.
00:49:53.000Right now, Kirk listeners can get 15% off their Raycon order at buyraycon.com/slash Kirk.
00:50:02.000At Raycons, it's to save 15% off Raycons, buyraycon.com/slash Kirk.
00:50:10.000There's kind of this platforming of the Scandinavian countries that so many people on the left participate in.
00:50:17.000I think there's some things that Sweden and Denmark get right.
00:50:21.000At least up until recently, Sweden and Denmark had some of the most sane immigration policies on the planet: that you must speak the language, love the country.
00:50:29.000We're not going to open up our borders to everyone.
00:50:31.000That has changed recently since the Syrian refugee crisis.
00:50:38.000Sweden also, I think, handled the Fauci virus and the Chinese coronavirus better than any other country that I can think of, refusing the lockdown, trusting their citizens to make good choices, and let's say rejecting the lockdowns in more ways than one.
00:50:57.000But still, the American left wants to talk about Sweden and Denmark.
00:51:00.000But did you know, breaking today, Sweden and Denmark have halted Moderna's Chinese coronavirus shot or vaccine for younger people.
00:51:11.000The Swedish watchdog cites increased risk of heart inflammation.
00:52:25.000The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office report shows a determination was made by a medical examiner that the 15-year-old was found dead in his bedroom two days after the second jab and suffered a, quote, stress, cardiomyopathy, and coronary artery inflammation.
00:52:48.000So Governor Gavin Newsom comes out and he mandates the vaccine for children and school-aged children.
00:52:53.000Meanwhile, Sweden and Denmark say, timeout, no more vaccinating kids with Moderna.
00:52:58.000And now we have a 15-year-old dead in Sonoma County.
00:53:01.000Add that to the list of thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands of other adverse events that we know are pouring in.
00:53:07.000And now a new California study comes out and shows that vaccinated individuals are more susceptible to the COVID variant than unvaccinated.
00:53:19.000We're going to post this on charliekirk.com because whenever I mention these studies, we get floods of emails.
00:53:34.000And we want to make sure we get this up.
00:53:37.000And it says, in addition, the frequence, in addition, the increase in the frequency of more antibody-resistant strains in the population correlates with the increase in the frequency of the population in the vaccination in the population.
00:53:51.000And by the way, just so you know, Sonoma County has zero pediatric COVID deaths, but now they have at least one vaccine-related death.
00:54:03.000It's not some sort of fringe thing that can be ignored.
00:54:07.000More vaccinations mean that more resistant strains emerge.
00:54:12.000And natural immunity, which you're not even allowed to say, has been proven even by Pfizer's own admission, caught on camera by James O'Keefe's Project Veritas, to be the ideal way to protect yourself and inoculate yourself against the Chinese coronavirus.
00:54:31.000So James O'Keefe from Project Veritas, he just does not stop.
00:54:35.000It's amazing the operation he has there.
00:54:38.000I think James O'Keefe, he has stolen more hours of sleep from the ruling class than I think any other person in recent memory.
00:54:54.000Just to kind of recap everything James O'Keefe has released.
00:54:57.000The first was the HHS story, which was a bombshell story that shows that the doctors within our own federal government are admitting the vaccine is causing side effects.
00:55:10.000No one's actually using the vaccine adverse event reporting system database as they say they should be.
00:55:24.000So James O'Keefe then decided to confront the Pfizer scientists after the Pfizer video previously that we played yesterday, where the Pfizer scientists said that natural immunity is far superior and that, quote, Pfizer is just getting COVID money.
00:56:39.000And you'd be amazed at how many people in conservative media are friendly with people that are kind of in the Pfizer orbit, if you will, that are kind of friendly with Pfizer in general.
00:56:55.000The RNC, the National Republican Senatorial Committee all took six-figure donations from Pfizer.
00:57:03.000Pfizer gave 43% to Republicans, 53% to Democrats.
00:57:09.000Whenever you see that, whenever you see any sort of company giving like near 50-50, you know that they're not giving because they're so enthralled and excited about that person's vision for the country.
00:57:23.000Let's just get our name on the car and they won't insult us and they won't come after us.
00:57:29.000So we now look at some of the people within the House of Representatives and the people that are actually in the highest levels of government.
00:57:44.000And you start to realize that Pfizer is controlling alongside AstraZeneca and Johnson and Johnson.
00:58:10.000But, you know, I will say, though, a lot of these people, they will stop as soon as we confront them because Republican voters have never cared before because they never really understood the flow of money from the pharmaceutical companies into the pockets of politicians.
00:58:23.000Lindsey Graham takes money from Pfizer.
00:58:32.000So now the BBC, the British Broadcasting Cooperation, has come out and they are trying to, they're asking a question.
00:58:39.000They have launched a new documentary, a new production, because they're wondering why so many young people are dying from undiagnosed heart conditions.
00:58:50.000Dubbed a sudden death risk for runners like me.
00:58:56.000Now, we are one of the few podcasting programs, not the only one.
00:58:59.000There are some phenomenal other ones that have been willing to kind of say, Hey, you do realize that there's a sudden spike in myocarditis, that we've received thousands of emails of people that have dropped dead after getting the vaccine.
00:59:09.000And what are we told that we are conspiracy theorists, fear mongers, you're not allowed to talk about any of this?
00:59:13.000But now, the BBC, the British Broadcasting Corporation, is launching a production saying, Why are so many young people dying from undiagnosed heart conditions?
00:59:42.000They found out that I had an undiagnosed heart condition that could easily send my pulse to over 250 beats per minute.
00:59:51.000Jim's heart condition nearly killed him after going on a bike ride.
00:59:56.000Obviously, you can only speculate so far as causation and correlation, but it's certainly interesting that the activist press overseas is asking, why are so many young people having these sort of heart problems, especially after we go on a massive inoculation campaign, forced vaccination campaign?
01:00:18.000And we already mentioned that the police in Sonoma County are blaming the Pfizer vaccine for causing the sudden death of a Santa Rosa team, 15 years old, from a coronary artery inflammation.
01:00:32.000We also obviously talked about the Northwestern student, the young black girl.
01:00:36.000She died with the same sort of symptoms back in May, right after getting the COVID vaccine.
01:00:45.000Is America coming closer to a place of harmony or a place of permanent conflict?
01:00:54.000This story is related, which again kind of goes with this mask tyranny that we're living under.
01:01:17.000Who wrote about anarcho-tyranny, which is anarchy for the people that are degenerating society, tyranny for the people that are conserving society?
01:01:28.000So if you want to do heroin and engage in open sexual activities and not wear clothes on the side of the street, San Francisco is okay with that.
01:01:53.000Before reading this kind of term that I did not come up with, anarcho-tyranny, I did independently come to this conclusion with a separate word.
01:02:02.000It was, I can't even remember the word.
01:02:04.000It was like anarcho-authoritarianism, whatever it was.
01:02:06.000Because I remember walking the streets of San Francisco a couple years ago.
01:02:10.000And as I was walking the streets, it was like three, four years ago, walking the streets of San Francisco, as I had to keep on walking, like literally avoiding the homeless people and the broken windows.
01:02:21.000I realized right then and there that according to California statute, that if I misgender one of these homeless people that are shooting up with heroin on the side of the streets, that I could be criminally penalized.
01:02:33.000It's not that they're against state power.
01:02:34.000It's that they want to use state power against the people that they really don't like.
01:02:39.000Well, in Cut 78, because of all of this nonsense, a man gets kicked off the plane after pleading to stay on the plane for having a mask below his nose and saying that it will never happen again.
01:02:51.000This wasn't an anti-masker, someone who was defiant.
01:02:55.000But no, they had to make an example out of him because he had his mask below the nose.
01:03:20.000I really promise that's never gonna happen again.
01:03:23.000Pleading that it will never happen again, pleading for mercy from the airlines.
01:03:27.000Meanwhile, Rashida Talib, congresswoman from Michigan, who is another ingrate, someone who absolutely hates the country, her and Elon Omar make quite a team.
01:03:40.000Rashida Talib opens up and she said, look, I only wear a mask for the cameras because I have a Republican track around me.
01:05:02.000We shouldn't be driving people away from serving.
01:05:06.000So he makes a 180 throughout it because he realizes his voters and the people that he's actually accountable to are really angry at him for doing nothing.
01:05:16.000And this voter comes out and says, the U.S. Navy's about to fire me.
01:05:43.000Because people were courageous enough to stand up and say, you don't understand what it's like to have medical choices dictated for you.
01:05:54.000If the Republican Party stood up together, these measures could be crushed immediately.
01:06:00.000In the next segment, I'm going to tell you how Republican attorney generals could have ended this vaccine mandate if they would have consolidated their support together.
01:06:08.000But unfortunately, Attorney General in too many states stands for aspiring governor, and they want pharmaceutical money too.
01:07:33.000Before deciding to invest, carefully review the important disclosures at masterworks.io slash disclaimer.
01:07:46.000If the Republican attorney generals would have united together, not just wrote letters, but if they would have said that if any vaccine mandate that would be instituted in their state would be met with investigations of whether or not waivers are being granted.
01:08:02.000So here's really what should have happened.
01:08:04.000You know, you take a state, a rather red state, let's just take South Dakota because we've been talking about them a lot.
01:08:09.000Or how about Wyoming or Nebraska or North Dakota?
01:08:12.000The Attorney General should have told the population, file as many religious exemptions with your employers as possible.
01:08:18.000And if they are denied, immediately appeal them to the North Dakota Attorney General's office, and that employer could be investigated for violating religious privacy and medical privacy laws.
01:08:32.000These employers would back down and they would grant all of the religious celebrity exemptions.
01:08:37.000If they would have had the fear of the attorney general coming after them, then they would have just backed off.
01:08:45.000Now, many of the, I just dealt with this.
01:08:47.000We just got an email from somebody at freedom at charliekirk.com.
01:08:49.000They said, Charlie, I failed a religious exemption.
01:08:52.000I was then intimidated with five men that then have a woman employee, literally five men in a room, ask her, Do you take Advil?
01:09:20.000I mean, the left would lose their mind.
01:09:23.000But no, if it comes to a vaccine, all of a sudden you can have five men in a room ask very intimate questions.
01:09:28.000And I gave her some advice because they were trying to say, well, what kind of shampoo do you use?
01:09:31.000What kind of, you know, do you use Advil or not?
01:09:34.000Because those could be against your religious beliefs if they're the ones who determine anyone's religious beliefs.
01:09:39.000That they very well might have violated state and federal statute of discriminating based on religion for not granting a religious exemption.
01:09:50.000And that's where these state attorney generals really need to start to step up: is that you have workers and you have citizens that are being penalized and targeted by their employers in these kind of Soviet show trial commissions that have been established, these kind of panels of interrogation.
01:10:16.000The attorney generals in these states could have prevented a lot of this from happening.
01:10:20.000I want to give you an idea of how bad this actually is becoming.
01:10:26.000And so an email right here: Charlie, my granddaughter was born Tuesday, October 5th, 8:30 a.m.
01:10:32.000She was anemic and needed a blood transfusion.
01:10:35.000My local hospital could not do this due to inadequate personnel and qualified doctors.
01:10:39.000She had to be airlifted to Paloma, California.
01:10:43.000When her father arrived that evening to see her, he was instructed that he could not enter because he was not vaccinated or had a negative COVID test.
01:10:54.000He asked for a test and was told they could not do it because it must be scheduled.
01:10:59.000He was turned away and could not see his newborn daughter.
01:11:04.000How do we combat this horrific atrocity toward our freedom and our family?
01:11:52.000They are uninterested in actually representing their voters.
01:11:54.000They're too busy taking money from Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, while people's livelihoods and literally their newborn children are being taken away from them and fathers can't visit their children.
