00:03:23.000 We will get to the Seattle news from last evening, made national news.
00:03:28.000 But first, let's start with my friend Will Scharf.
00:03:30.000 Right out of the gate, Will Sharf is amazing.
00:03:32.000 He's running for Attorney General in Missouri, but most importantly, he is on Trump's legal team, former federal prosecutor.
00:03:39.000 Will, I was too busy trying to dodge and avoid Antifa yesterday.
00:03:44.000 I was getting news alerts.
00:03:45.000 People were calling me.
00:03:46.000 My phone was blowing up.
00:03:47.000 Charlie, it's a great legal day for Trump.
00:03:49.000 So, Will, explain to me as I let's like, I was just living under a rock for a day what happened yesterday.
00:03:57.000 Catch us up, debrief, break it all down.
00:04:00.000 And then there's also the Georgia news.
00:04:01.000 Will Sharf.
00:04:03.000 Yeah, Charlie, you know, from the start, you've really focused on the timeline, the timing of all of these cases, how they're going to impact the 2024 election.
00:04:14.000 And from that standpoint, today was one of the most important days, or yesterday, excuse me, was one of the most important days we've had in a very long time.
00:04:23.000 The Florida documents case, that's one of the cases brought by special counsel Jack Smith.
00:04:29.000 Judge Cannon pulled the trial date there and basically said that there are so many pretrial motions and so many issues to be resolved that she's not even ready to set a new trial date yet.
00:04:41.000 The chances of that case moving to trial before election day, I always thought they were slim.
00:04:48.000 Now they look vanishing.
00:04:50.000 It's that case is just not going to move on the sort of timeframe that Jack Smith wanted.
00:04:56.000 Meanwhile, up in New York, we had what we think was an incredible day for us.
00:05:02.000 We almost got a mistrial in the New York trial.
00:05:05.000 Basically, the judge said that Stormy Daniels was only allowed to testify to certain things.
00:05:11.000 The prosecution elicited testimony that ran straight through those guardrails.
00:05:16.000 We made a motion for a mistrial, and Judge Murshon, who's obviously ruled against us on just about everything, seemed like he was really considering it.
00:05:26.000 We're going to continue challenging various aspects of that case going forward.
00:05:30.000 But I think most legal commentators agree that that New York trial is just going very, very badly for the prosecution, that they haven't been able to prove their case, I believe, because President Trump did nothing wrong and they don't have any evidence that he did anything wrong.
00:05:46.000 As you alluded to, in Georgia this morning, we got news that the Georgia Court of Appeals is going to consider our appeal to have Fonnie Willis finally removed from that case.
00:05:58.000 That was an issue that was left open by the trial judge.
00:06:01.000 And now it appears like we may get justice from the Georgia Court of Appeals there.
00:06:06.000 And again, if Fonnie Willis is kicked off that case, it's just very, very difficult to see how Georgia, which is already moving slowly, could start to move in a way that would impact the 2024 election.
00:06:19.000 So from the standpoint of election interference, this plot to tie President Trump down in court to prevent him from campaigning aggressively, it seems to be failing on all fronts.
00:06:31.000 And we just keep on winning wherever we go.
00:06:34.000 I mean, this is an extraordinary day.
00:06:37.000 I did miss a lot, Will.
00:06:38.000 Thank you for breaking that all down and debriefing it.
00:06:41.000 So let's go one by one by one.
00:06:43.000 The documents case was actually where a lot of the counts were against Trump.
00:06:48.000 They say he's facing 90 counts.
00:06:50.000 I can't remember, what was it, 40 or 50 of them were actually in the documents case.
00:06:55.000 And also, according to legal minds that I respect, like Alan Dershowitz, he says, look, if I'm just looking at this objectively, of all the stuff that Trump is facing, where they might be able to be ticky tack is on the procedural documents stuff.
00:07:11.000 It was always the one that very well was one of the more legally challenging one to navigate.
00:07:16.000 We now can say confidently that that will not happen before the election.
00:07:21.000 That's huge, Will.
00:07:22.000 Yeah, I think it would be very, very difficult for that case to suddenly speed up and become electorally relevant.
00:07:28.000 You know, a lot of legal commentators said that that case is strong.
00:07:32.000 I've never agreed with that.
00:07:34.000 What they're trying to prove there is espionage act counts.
00:07:37.000 They're trying to prove that President Trump willfully retained documents that he knew that he wasn't supposed to have.
00:07:44.000 What's come out publicly, what's been unsealed in the last week or so, is the fact that many of these documents were actually shipped to President Trump by the Biden administration, by the GSA under the Biden administration, which makes proving mensra, meaning proving that President Trump had that culpable state of mind there almost impossible.
00:08:05.000 How are they supposed to show that he knew he wasn't supposed to have these documents when it was the federal government who shipped him the documents in the first place?
00:08:13.000 That and any number of other issues are undermining the factual and legal basis for that case on an almost daily basis.
00:08:20.000 We're starting to see now publicly why Judge Cannon has been so frustrated with Jack Smith and the special counsel's team for months now.
00:08:29.000 Very serious allegations of prosecutorial misconduct now being aired in that case, potential violations relating to the custody of evidence, the way that evidence was maintained after it was seized in the Mar-a-Lago raid.
00:08:43.000 Documents were moved, documents were misplaced, documents were misrecorded.
00:08:48.000 What seemed on indictment day to be a strong case to some now just appears weaker and weaker and weaker by the day.
00:08:57.000 And that's what we've seen in all of these cases: that when they're rolled out, they're sort of covered breathlessly by the leftist media.
00:09:04.000 And then, as we actually get into the business of litigating them, they just fall apart under the weight of their own deficiencies.
00:09:11.000 I think that's what we're going to continue seeing in Florida.
00:09:14.000 Falling apart under the weight of their own deficiencies.
00:09:16.000 I want to throw Cut 71 up on screen here.
00:09:19.000 This image was the image seen around the world.
00:09:22.000 It was at the time.
00:09:23.000 I'm trying to find it actually on the front page of the New York Times.
00:09:26.000 I'm trying to find it.
00:09:27.000 I remember it was on the front page in the New York Times.
00:09:29.000 I remember it.
00:09:30.000 They've tried to memory hole it.
00:09:31.000 So this image shows all these documents with classified markers.
00:09:35.000 Turns out, in their haste to paint Trump as a criminal, the special counsel concedes that some of the top secret cover sheets do not even match the relevant document.
00:09:46.000 In other words, they created a photo op and it's not even accurate.
00:09:50.000 They lied.
00:09:51.000 They leaked.
00:09:52.000 They smeared just like the Russia hoax, just like the impeachment hoax, just like every other case against Trump.
00:09:59.000 Will, you are a former federal prosecutor.
00:10:03.000 You had the ability to go to court and to lock bad guys up for a long period of time, and God bless you for that.
00:10:10.000 How would a judge treat you if you treated evidence that way?
00:10:12.000 If you leaked to a media and misrepresenting evidence and trying to smear a defendant, Will Sharf.
00:10:20.000 Yeah, I mean, if I did some of the things that they've done here in the prosecution of, let's say, a drug dealer in North St. Louis, I'd lose my job, lose my bar license, and maybe even go to prison.
00:10:32.000 I mean, this goes back to the Carter Page FISA and the Russia collusion hoax.
00:10:36.000 What we've seen here is federal prosecutors and agents, in their haste to get Trump at all costs, run roughshod over normal procedure, over the civil rights of the defendant, in this case, President Trump.
00:10:50.000 They're willing to bend and break every rule in the book if it gets them one step closer to their objective of getting President Trump.
00:10:57.000 And that's just the opposite of the way that prosecutions and investigations are supposed to work.
00:11:02.000 It should be deeply offensive to Americans of all political stripes.
00:11:07.000 Here is, and the key is to emphasize: this image was leaked to the press with classified cover sheets on the docks.
00:11:13.000 They weren't found with classified covered sheets.
00:11:16.000 It was a doctored photo.
00:11:18.000 It was a doctored photo for a press political purpose.
00:11:23.000 This should throw out the entire case.
00:11:25.000 These are dirty cops.
00:11:27.000 And Trump has been saying that.
00:11:29.000 And the prosecution has also repeatedly made representations to the court, to Judge Cannon, about the way that evidence was maintained, the custody of the evidence, how documents were arranged.
00:11:40.000 And those representations, they've now admitted were false.
00:11:44.000 I mean, this is very, very serious stuff.
00:11:46.000 You cannot play games with evidence.
00:11:48.000 That's like rule number one in terms of prosecution.
00:11:52.000 Very, very serious questions being raised about the ethics of the prosecutors and the rules that they've run roughshod over in their haste to get Trump.
00:12:00.000 It's absolutely outrageous.

00:13:07.000 Will, let's play Cut 86.
00:13:09.000 But also, we should note: Special Counsel Jack Smith really has voiced some serious concerns, if not animus, toward this judge.
00:13:20.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:13:21.000 And there may come a time when he tries to get her removed from the case, but at this point, that's premature.
00:13:25.000 What Jack Smith knows tonight, though, is that it's very possible that he may not be able to bring either one of his federal cases against former President Trump before the election.
00:13:35.000 And the election is a significant point on the calendar because if Trump is re-elected, he can have Jack Smith and both of his cases dismissed.
00:13:45.000 Okay, so let's now go to the January 6th case.
00:13:48.000 Did anything that happened yesterday impact the timeline for the Chutkin January 6th case?
00:13:57.000 No, let me just say first, the reason Jack Smith and his team are ticked off at Judge Cannon is because she's been playing it absolutely by the book.
00:14:06.000 She's been refusing just to railroad President Trump and sign off on their insane timelines.
00:14:12.000 She's handling this case as any normal case would be handled with all deliberation due to various motions, to various evidentiary issues.
00:14:21.000 And they're getting frustrated because she won't railroad us.
00:14:24.000 But there's no bias there.
00:14:26.000 There's no reason to have her recused.
00:14:28.000 She's just acting exactly how a federal judge should act when dealing with a case like this.
00:14:34.000 With respect to DC, we have what's called a Coinbase stay, an absolute stay on all trial proceedings, all proceedings, preparatory for trial, et cetera, pending resolution of our presidential immunity appeal, which, as you know, is before the Supreme Court right now.
00:14:50.000 In late June, most likely, the Supreme Court will issue an opinion.
00:14:54.000 We feel very, very optimistic about the Supreme Court and how they'll come down.
00:14:59.000 After the Supreme Court issues its judgment, the most likely option, if we get even a partial win there, would be a remand for further proceedings on the immunity issue, which could take many months.
00:15:12.000 Again, the chances of that case going to trial before the election, I always believed were slim.
00:15:17.000 But with the Supreme Court likely to rule the way that we think they will, which is to recognize at least some presidential immunity, the chances of that case making it to trial before Election Day are essentially zero.
00:15:30.000 Even if we were to lose, there's a month-long period between when the Supreme Court rules and when the mandate returns to the trial court.
00:15:39.000 That takes us to mid-late July.
00:15:42.000 Our trial clock when the stay was first implemented was at about three months.
00:15:47.000 So July, August, September, October.
00:15:50.000 The idea that Chutkin is going to put President Trump on trial a week before Election Day, I just don't think that's real.
00:15:57.000 So the DC case, it's not going anywhere anytime soon.
00:16:01.000 We feel very good about the Supreme Court and where they're at on our immunity issue.
00:16:06.000 And that could easily dispose of large parts of this case.
00:16:10.000 The Supreme Court also has a case before it called Fisher, which is a January 6th case, where if it rules the way many legal commentators think, that could take two of the four charges against President Trump off the table entirely.
00:16:25.000 So that DC case, in many respects, we believe is falling apart.
00:16:29.000 The chance of it moving to trial before the election is very slim.
00:16:33.000 And we feel pretty good about where we're at there.
00:16:36.000 In closing here, Will, just kind of recap some of the details of what happened with Stormy Daniels taking the stand.
00:16:42.000 This was supposed to be their big star witness.
00:16:45.000 Should there be a mistrial in New York?
00:16:47.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:16:48.000 So at the start of the day, Judge Murshon, who again has not been particularly favorable to us, set very clear guardrails on what he was willing to allow Stormy to testify about and things that he didn't want her to testify about.
00:17:02.000 The prosecution ran roughshod over those guardrails.
00:17:06.000 We posed numerous objections over the course of her testimony, many of which were sustained by the court.
00:17:14.000 After the lunch break, we moved for a mistrial based on the fact that the evidence introduced was so prejudicial and so lacking in any probative value that it essentially infected the proceedings with unfair bias against President Trump.
00:17:30.000 Judge Murshon, to his credit, seemed to consider it, consider it quite seriously.
00:17:36.000 He said that he would issue an order tomorrow, likely including some sort of limiting construction or limiting instruction to the jury about what they could and couldn't consider of what she said.
00:17:47.000 But the prosecution really stepped on a landmine yesterday.
00:17:51.000 And again, I think that looking at the totality of the evidence that's been introduced, they're still not close to proving their case.
00:17:59.000 They're still nowhere near proving that President Trump actually committed any sort of business records fraud or any crime at all.
00:18:06.000 So a lot of this is just a smoke and mirror strategy.
00:18:09.000 Throw up enough salacious tabloid gossip and hope that the jury is confused by it.
00:18:14.000 It's an outrageous way to approach a case like this.
00:18:17.000 I'm hopeful that the jury sees through all of that in the end.
00:18:21.000 Will, thank you so much.
00:18:22.000 Excellent work.
00:18:22.000 And we're going to keep our eyes on it.
00:18:24.000 Some great legal victories.
00:18:25.000 And I pray that we have an election that's not going to be tampered with by all this lawfare.
00:18:30.000 Will, thank you so much.
00:18:31.000 Great to be with you, Charlie.
00:18:32.000 Thank you.
00:18:35.000 Hey, this is Charlie Kirk.
00:18:36.000 And I know a lot of you have been suffering under the Biden economy.
00:18:39.000 Recently, school loan payments have been reinstated.
00:18:42.000 And for many, it's adding thousands to their monthly expenses.
00:18:45.000 My friends, Andrew Delray and Todd of Akian, they're amazing.
00:18:47.000 They really helped me through a tough, tough situation recently.
00:18:50.000 They've been excellent.
00:18:52.000 They're ethical.
00:18:53.000 They're just really great people.
00:18:54.000 They're followers of Jesus Christ, and our worldviews are the same.
00:18:58.000 I love them.
00:18:59.000 And so please go to AndrewNTodd.com.
00:19:00.000 Interest rates are coming down, and they may be able to lower your overall payment.
00:19:03.000 In fact, one of our team members said, Charlie, is it time to me to own a home?
00:19:06.000 I sat down.
00:19:07.000 I went through the numbers.
00:19:07.000 I said, get in the owner game.
00:19:09.000 Honestly, enough renting.
00:19:10.000 You are burning your money renting.
00:19:11.000 It might be a little bit more to own, but you're building equity.
00:19:13.000 That's money you'll have for the rest of your life.
00:19:16.000 Perhaps a reverse mortgage is a perfect solution.
00:19:18.000 It's about expertise you could trust in times like this.
00:19:20.000 I can't tell you how helpful they've been for me personally.
00:19:22.000 They've just been excellent.
00:19:23.000 Andrew and Todd, I'm honored to call them friends.
00:19:25.000 We hang out when I go to Orange County together.
00:19:27.000 They're really great.
00:19:28.000 So say, Charlie sent me 888-888-1172.
00:19:31.000 That's 888, 888, 1172.
00:19:33.000 They helped me through a mortgage situation recently that was super complex and moving pieces, and it was really, really tough.
00:19:39.000 And other banks, by the way, wanted nothing to do with it, and they crushed it for me.
00:19:43.000 10 out of 10.
00:19:44.000 AndrewandTodd.com.
00:19:45.000 So check it out right now, AndrewandTodd.com.
00:19:49.000 Yesterday was extraordinary.
00:19:51.000 And I first want to just apologize for any of you in the audience that were not able to gain access to our event last night.
00:19:57.000 That is not on me or Turning Point USA.
00:19:59.000 The University of Washington promised us that at least another 500 to 600 people would have been let into that room.
00:20:07.000 And it turns out they just cut off ticketing and they said, oh, the fire code has been reached.
00:20:11.000 And because of that, a lot of people were not able to come into the room.
00:20:14.000 Now, let's play some of this B-roll here.
00:20:16.000 The line of people last evening to come into our event in Seattle, Washington was striking.
00:20:25.000 Thousands and thousands of people from all over Seattle were attending a conservative event.
00:20:30.000 And Antifa was there to try and intimidate them, to try and provoke them.
00:20:38.000 You see, that's the Antifa standing army.
00:20:41.000 They were there with their weapons, doxing private information of journalists, all about free, free, free Palestine.
00:20:50.000 But what was amazing to see is that the Patriots that support Turning Point USA, they don't care.
00:20:56.000 Like, oh, yeah, there's the lunatics off to the side, the unemployed weed heads.
00:21:00.000 Look at that picture right there.
00:21:02.000 Now, producer Andrew went to the University of Washington.
00:21:06.000 We don't hold that against him.
00:21:07.000 So he knows this area quite well.
00:21:09.000 And we did the event in a space called The Hub.
00:21:13.000 Andrew's like, wow, you're going to do an event in the hub?
00:21:15.000 That's a really big room.
00:21:17.000 I was like, well, we'll see what happens.
00:21:19.000 We filled that entire room from wall to wall, wall-to-wall coverage.
00:21:25.000 We had to turn away over 1,000 people, and we had to turn away anywhere between 400 to 500 students.
00:21:35.000 We cannot find rooms big enough to fit all of the students that want to attend our Turning Point USA events on campus.
00:21:46.000 And what was amazing is that, yes, there were a fair amount of students that were curious or even oppositional.
00:21:54.000 But out of that 1,400-person room, of which 1,100 seats were allowed because the university misled us, separate topic.
00:22:02.000 It should be 1,1600, but that frustrated.
00:22:05.000 I hate turning people away.
00:22:06.000 It drives me nuts.
00:22:07.000 But it's the new reality we're living in.
00:22:09.000 There's just such pent-up enthusiasm.
00:22:12.000 There is such energy and spirit.
00:22:15.000 There's vitality in the conservative movement.
00:22:17.000 Look at this.
00:22:18.000 Look at the lines.
00:22:19.000 This is on a college campus, everybody, a liberal college campus in Seattle, Washington.
00:22:25.000 It is just this incredible B-roll.
00:22:28.000 Looking at the line that just extends forever, is that I would say that out of the people in the room, 60 to 70% were excited that they could finally applaud for a conservative speaker.
00:22:42.000 It wasn't just that they came to go hear the other side.
00:22:45.000 There were some people that were there, but there was an extraordinary amount of support.
00:22:50.000 I also spent three hours on the college campus, just feet away from the encampment.
00:22:58.000 It's very funny.
00:22:59.000 People were telling me the experts in Seattle, Charlie's very dangerous.
00:23:03.000 You shouldn't go out there and do an event.
00:23:05.000 You can't do that.
00:23:05.000 You can't go to the event.
00:23:06.000 I said, no, we're going to go do the event.
00:23:08.000 I'm going to go sit out there for multiple hours, two or three hours, and we are not going to bend a knee to the terrorists that think they can cancel our free speech rights and our ability to organize because they come out with a bunch of umbrellas and they're paid to be there.
00:23:24.000 You might say, but Charlie, why Seattle?
00:23:26.000 You talk about Arizona.
00:23:28.000 You talk about Wisconsin.
00:23:29.000 You talk about Georgia.
00:23:31.000 Why Seattle?
00:23:33.000 Because we must play offense.
00:23:37.000 We have lost so much of America by sitting back and allowing the left to roam free.
00:23:44.000 No more.
00:23:45.000 At Turning Point USA, I'm a little biased, but I believe it's America's most important organization because look at the results.
00:23:51.000 It's unbelievable.
00:23:53.000 We go into enemy territory and we succeed.
00:23:57.000 It's one thing just to show up at University of Washington.
00:24:01.000 Okay.
00:24:02.000 To draw thousands of people, that is their comfort zone.
00:24:09.000 The left has enjoyed a monopoly on these campuses for decades.
00:24:14.000 We are taking the message of liberty into the totalitarian belly of the beast.
00:24:22.000 And the response is amazing.
00:24:24.000 Not everybody necessarily agrees with everything I have to say, but the homogeneous, one-size-fit all left-wing viewpoints that have been dominating college campuses, it's rather boring for a student just to hear that men can give birth and that borders don't matter and that climate change is the most important thing ever.
00:24:49.000 But let me tell you, because I saw it firsthand and I've been telling you about this all semester.
00:24:57.000 I said, there's something noticeable happening.
00:24:59.000 The young men are rising.
00:25:01.000 Gen Z men are ascendant.
00:25:05.000 And of course, we are seeing the revolution of the proletariat.
00:25:09.000 There's an article that actually says that exactly on piratewires.com, an excellent article, the revolution of the proletariat.
00:25:18.000 The amount of young men that were there last night, and I mentioned, I said, young men are the most conservative they've been in 50 years, and they erupt in the room.
00:25:28.000 And they said, yes, we want our country back.
00:25:31.000 Why are the young men so vocal?
00:25:34.000 Why are the young men so energized?
00:25:38.000 They are exhausted and they're done with being blamed for every societal ill simply for existing.
00:25:49.000 Oh, you're a white male.
00:25:51.000 You're the reason why there's so much suffering.
00:25:54.000 Oh, you're a white male, toxically masculine.
00:25:57.000 Oh, you're a white male.
00:25:58.000 You better not mispronoun me.
00:25:59.000 They've had enough.
00:26:00.000 And they're looking for a counter-revolutionary force.
00:26:04.000 And they found a home in the conservative movement.
00:26:07.000 Let's play Cut 91.
00:26:09.000 Founder and president of Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk, will be stopping into UW Tuesday night.
00:26:14.000 We're definitely keeping a close eye on it.
00:26:16.000 Matthew Chabot is a member of UW's Progressive Student Union.
00:26:20.000 He's been staying within one of nearly 140 tents at this pro-Palestine encampment and is concerned over Kirk's visit.
00:26:27.000 Charlie Kirk has been instrumental in leading the fight against LGBTQ rights on campuses, on leading the fight against diversity, against diversity in schools.
00:26:36.000 While Kirk's presence isn't appreciated by some, it is welcomed by others.
00:26:41.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:26:42.000 I'm actually going to go.
00:26:43.000 Yeah.
00:26:44.000 He's coming tomorrow in the hub.
00:26:45.000 So I'm actually a big fan of him.
00:26:48.000 I love it.
00:26:48.000 You had that first guy.
00:26:51.000 He looks like he's rough.
00:26:54.000 Let's just put it this way.
00:26:55.000 I'm not here to insult people's looks.
00:26:56.000 That other guy has made a decision to be ugly.
00:26:59.000 He hasn't washed his hair.
00:27:01.000 He's overgrown, saying nasty things.
00:27:04.000 And the next guy, the media interviews, and they don't know which way he's going to go.
00:27:09.000 He's like, oh, yeah, I love the guy.
00:27:11.000 Well-groomed, articulate, ready to roll, ready to fight for the country.
00:27:17.000 It's like, oh, yeah, he's going to be at the hub.
00:27:18.000 I'll be there.
00:27:20.000 You're living through something generationally transformational.
00:27:25.000 And look, it's too early to celebrate, but it's not too early to notice and to accelerate and to encourage.
00:27:34.000 We're not in celebratory phase.
00:27:36.000 You know when we'll be celebratory phase?
00:27:38.000 When Trump says, so help me, God.
00:27:40.000 Then we can celebrate.
00:27:42.000 Instead, we're noticing and encouraging and trying to accelerate this trend.
00:27:47.000 And it's happening quicker than anything I could have imagined.
00:27:50.000 I've been doing this work for 11 years.
00:27:51.000 I've never seen responses like this ever.
00:27:54.000 I've not, and by the way, can we get that footage of the frat boys?
00:27:57.000 So while I'm doing a three-hour prove-me-wrong event on campus, some of the frat boys kind of walk next to my event because there are four overweight Antifa folks.
00:28:11.000 Here it is right here with umbrellas.
00:28:13.000 And the frat boys go up to them and challenge them to a push-up contest.
00:28:18.000 And they don't accept because they're not exactly in good shape.
00:28:22.000 And they formed a line to try and block them.
00:28:24.000 Let's put 93 up.
00:28:26.000 Which way, America, do you want?
00:28:28.000 Choose your fighter.
00:28:30.000 You have this incredible, you know, well-spoken, clean, shaven, articulate, versus this guy who can't even make eye contact, who's accusing me of not wanting campuses to be diverse, and he's very worried about my visit.
00:28:46.000 Those are two different futures right there in front of you.
00:28:49.000 The frat boys rose up to protect our tabling event yesterday.
00:28:56.000 I didn't ask them to do it.
00:28:57.000 We had plenty of security.
00:28:58.000 We also, the police were great, by the way.
00:28:59.000 They were terrific.
00:29:01.000 The frat boys voluntarily went right up into Antifa, and Antifa has a history of being very violent, by the way, and starts taunting them, starts mocking them.
00:29:11.000 And look at these frat boys.
00:29:12.000 They're like, come on, let's go.
00:29:14.000 That is the energy that we need.
00:29:17.000 That is the revolutionary spirit that is being reborn in this country.
00:29:23.000 Going right up into these maniac losers who used to, oh, yeah, we run the streets.
00:29:29.000 No, you don't.
00:29:31.000 The men of this country are going to take the streets back.
00:29:34.000 And not in any sort of bad way or violent way, take it back for decency and for virtue and for patriotism.
00:29:42.000 Yesterday at UW in Seattle, we showed how pathetic and lame Antifa has become.
00:29:46.000 They're a bunch of cowards who wear masks and all black to live action role play as revolutionaries, but they're just a bunch of 40-year-old dorks, unemployed with umbrellas, making themselves feel tough because they can walk in formations together.
00:30:03.000 And to be honest, a lot of them were very overweight.
00:30:06.000 Not that there's anything wrong.
00:30:07.000 Like you should lose weight.
00:30:08.000 But again, I know there's a lot of people that are overweight that are nice people, but they couldn't spread 100 yards if they wanted to.
00:30:14.000 So the frat boys said, hey, let's do a push-up contest.
00:30:16.000 You're a racist.
00:30:22.000 Okay, I want to just keep on leaning into this.
00:30:25.000 Just so we're clear, we also had a security guard yesterday who took one for the team, one of our frontlines journalists.
00:30:30.000 By the way, frontline is doing amazing work.
00:30:32.000 We've got to do more with frontlines having them on the show.
00:30:34.000 It is our citizen journalist project at Turning Point USA.
00:30:37.000 Frontlines at the border, frontlines at the migrant camps.
00:30:40.000 So one of our security guards here, as you can see, took one for the team as our frontlines journalist.
00:30:45.000 Just a little brawl and a scuffle that happened there.
00:30:48.000 Look, the left, all they know is violence because speech to them is a threat.
00:30:53.000 You're not exactly sure what's happened in this video, but there's one of our security guys who got bloodied up by Antifa, just otherwise known as another day at the farm in Seattle.
00:31:05.000 Shout out to Dan and the whole team.
00:31:07.000 They did a great job of protecting me.
00:31:08.000 I felt very protected the entire time.
00:31:12.000 I wanted to go into the encampment, but I was told that might result in the evening event being canceled.
00:31:17.000 So we decided against that, but I still wanted to go into the encampment.
00:31:21.000 But understand that that's our security, one of our security guys that we helped with our journalists that got bloodied up by Antifa.
00:31:31.000 Our movement is ascendant.
00:31:33.000 And you are all playing a huge part in that.
00:31:35.000 Some people are asking, Charlie, when is your next event?
00:31:37.000 Detroit, Michigan.
00:31:39.000 Detroit, Michigan, tpaction.com.
00:31:41.000 Get your tickets right now, tpaction.com for the People's Convention.
00:31:44.000 Donald Trump will be there.
00:31:45.000 Vaikramaswamy will be there.
00:31:47.000 Biggest speakers in the entire movement.
00:31:50.000 And that last night was the last campus event until the fall.
00:31:53.000 And this fall, I am going to do the most campus events in the shortest period of time than I've ever done.
00:31:58.000 In addition, everything else we're doing, three hours of radio, traveling the country.
00:32:02.000 Because I see stuff on these campuses I've never seen before.
00:32:04.000 Turning Point Action will be sponsoring a lot of the campus activities this fall because we now need to get this young male energy, the rise of the frat bros.
00:32:15.000 We need to make sure we chase their ballots.
00:32:17.000 We need to make sure that they vote for their future.
00:32:21.000 And it really is a male-dominated deal.
00:32:23.000 I'd say that out of the people that ask, and again, I want to try to reach young ladies.
00:32:28.000 We have our Young Women's Leadership Summit coming up, just so we're clear, in early June.
00:32:32.000 It's about a month away.
00:32:33.000 We'll have well over 2,500 young ladies from across the country.
00:32:36.000 Megan Kelly be there.
00:32:37.000 So we're doing our part to try to reach out with young ladies.
00:32:40.000 But there are trends at times in society.
00:32:42.000 There are trends you can, that you have waves you can ride and waves you can't ride.
00:32:48.000 Young ladies, the wave is not in the right wing direction.
00:32:51.000 We could try to change it, but we are trying to accelerate the trend when it comes to young men.
00:32:56.000 And understand, they want the simple things.
00:32:59.000 I was asked by a socialist revolutionary.
00:33:03.000 They say, well, Charlie, what is your idea of success for the next generation, specifically young men?
00:33:09.000 I say, well, I think they want the simple things.
00:33:11.000 They want to be able to own a home.
00:33:13.000 According to Zillow.com, in 2020, when Donald Trump was president, it required $71,000 a year to buy a home.
00:33:22.000 Now it's over $125,000 a year to buy a home.
00:33:27.000 Secondly, they want to be able to get married.
00:33:30.000 They do not want to be called toxically masculine all the time because they want to have a stable marriage and relationship.
00:33:37.000 And finally, they want to have children.
00:33:40.000 The number one reason why people are not having as many kids as they used to is economics.
00:33:46.000 We have the collapse of the American fertility rate.
00:33:50.000 The fertility rate is collapsing.
00:33:53.000 It is below replacement levels.
00:33:56.000 And so in front of us, we have this amazing opportunity.
00:33:59.000 And now I could tell you, I did campus visits all across the country this semester in Turning Point USA.
00:34:03.000 We hosted the most events we've ever hosted in the history of Turning Point USA on campus.
00:34:07.000 No group can say what they're doing like Turning Act, not to mention all the stuff we're doing at Turning Point Action, TPSA Faith, Turning Point Academy, Blexit, TPSA Digital.
00:34:14.000 It is full-spectrum dominance.
00:34:16.000 From Lawrence, Kansas, to UC San Diego, to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo to University of Nevada, Las Vegas, to University of Washington, Seattle, to sending the great Candace Owens to University of Alabama.
00:34:32.000 One thing in common: we couldn't find spaces big enough to fit all the students that wanted to attend our events.
00:34:40.000 The support is overwhelming.
00:34:42.000 It's overpouring.
00:34:44.000 Let's accelerate it and make it bigger.
