00:01:37.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:49.000Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:58.000We are recapping the unfortunate Senate results from Georgia, a very winnable race, where unfortunately Raphael Warnock will go on to a six-year term.
00:02:08.000Someone said, well, Charlie, how do we know they didn't show up?
00:02:10.000Well, Georgia has the second most counties of any state in the country.
00:02:14.000And you can just go county by county, go to Wayne County, go to Tatteno County, go to Tombs County, go to Emmanuel County.
00:02:24.000We're not even talking about the nonsense in Fulton or Henry or DeKalb or Cobb.
00:02:29.000Turnout was down and it manifested in Herschel Walker, unfortunately coming about 95,000 votes short.
00:02:35.000But 200,000 people in the state of Georgia had something better to do than go and vote.
00:02:43.000Okay, joining us now is Rick Grinnell to talk about how we need to fire the current Republican National Committee leadership.
00:02:50.000It's unacceptable that in a year that should have been a red wave, we lost a net Senate seat, we barely won the House, and we were humiliated in other races across the country.
00:03:17.000I don't want to normalize losing in the Republican Party.
00:03:21.000Who should lead the RNC given what we now know?
00:03:25.000Well, first of all, let me just say that I spoke to President Trump yesterday about this issue, and he was going to let us know what his views were and who should lead the RNC.
00:03:35.000But really, the discussion was all about how do we make wholesale changes to the system that we're up against.
00:03:44.000Look, just look at Act Blue versus Win Red.
00:03:50.000We are getting incredibly beat when it comes to fundraising.
00:03:55.000Did, as you know, Charlie, I did a whole bunch of races across Nevada, Arizona.
00:04:00.000Um, I helped in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
00:04:03.000I did so many races, and every single time the Democrats would outraise us, and they didn't even do fundraising.
00:04:11.000They just literally had this Act Blue raising them money.
00:04:15.000So the Democrats don't have to pick and choose between: do we go up on television and spend millions of dollars with ads and also a strategy to attack the other side with ads?
00:04:27.000Or do we have this well-funded ground game where we go and we pay people to go door to door?
00:04:35.000But the Republican Party, I don't care what state you're in or wherever you are, the Republican Party has traditionally relied on volunteers to do their get out the vote.
00:04:46.000Meanwhile, the Democrats have this built-in union system.
00:04:50.000I know you do great work with the churches.
00:04:53.000I think that we're going to have to start mobilizing the groups that believe in what we do to do whatever they can legally, whether it's ballot harvesting, whether it's collecting ballots, whether it's going door to door.
00:05:12.000But I do also think that we've got this built-in challenge as conservatives and Republicans that, you know, we fundamentally distrust government.
00:05:21.000We don't want to organize around government structures.
00:05:26.000Our voters are people who want to minimize government.
00:05:29.000And then the other side is the one who literally gets government funding because they believe in these programs.
00:05:38.000And I'm not suggesting that we immediately just go ballot harvest.
00:05:42.000Maybe we do, but I still think that there's got to be a more creative way that we, as consistent conservatives, small government people, can figure out how to combat mobilizing people.
00:06:43.000So I know he's talking to all the candidates, but let me just say this: regardless of who's on top at the RNC, we must have wholesale change in how we approach elections, how we approach the legal team.
00:07:00.000Oh my gosh, Charlie, we could do a whole show.
00:07:02.000Disaster when it comes to who they put, which lawyers they put on our campaigns.
00:07:09.000And look, they'll push back and they'll say, hey, it's really difficult to have election lawyers who are experts when we don't have a system that supports these lawyers year-round when there's not elections.
00:07:22.000And so we have very few people who spend the time making their living on election law.
00:07:28.000I get that, but we've got to then have leadership that's creative to say, okay, here's a law firm that needs to be supported by all the conservatives so that they have the ability to go out and take lawyers on legal work on outside of election season.
00:07:49.000And I mean, if anyone is going to be equipped or prepared for that, it would be Harmeet Dylan, who is a lawyer herself to actually get into lawfare.
00:07:59.000I mean, I just, I think of this very logically, I think fairly.
00:08:08.000I think there's a role for her, but we fire head coaches in the National Football League if they go 500.
00:08:16.000And we're going to have the same leader of the RNC after a humiliating loss in Georgia, losing the Senate, barely winning the House, not controlling the presidency.
00:08:44.000Imagine if you were running a church like, yeah, you know, third year in a row, we have to continue to sign another banknote just to keep us afloat.
00:08:50.000Like, actually, maybe we should fire the CFO and find out why our attendance is declining.
00:08:58.000And we are the party of the private sector.
00:09:00.000We're the party that doesn't think like government bureaucrats.
00:09:02.000And so we should be bringing all these ideas to the party structure.
00:09:08.000I do think that it's challenging because we just fundamentally don't believe in big entities and structures.
00:09:14.000And so we've got a whole bunch of people in the grassroots who don't like the RNC, who don't like being managed like that.
00:09:20.000They want the freedom to be able to do their own thing.
00:09:23.000But what I can say about Harmeet, because I'm a Californian and I know her, there's nobody better to clean up the legal problems.
00:09:33.000I know she's just really frustrated with all of the legal problems that we have, the lack of training for lawyers, the lack of support for law firms that are conservative.
00:10:03.000And we need to have people who are firing back.
00:10:07.000So we have to have a system of people who are proven fighters, not within the current system, because the current system isn't working for us.

00:11:47.000Look, I understand there's a fair amount of despair out there and demoralization.
00:11:53.000However, allowing that demoralization to manifest into not showing up to vote at all, which could probably take anywhere between 10 to 15 minutes, maybe as long to 25 to 30 minutes, that's the wrong decision.
00:12:07.000Someone says here, Charlie, I do not believe that people did not show up and vote.
00:12:10.000Well, based on Republican counties, they're telling us that's actually what happened.
00:12:14.000In fact, I'm just looking at emails of one after the other after the other of people that are bragging that they no longer voted, that they did not vote for Herschel, that they said they will no longer participate in corrupt elections.
00:12:26.000That's the wrong attitude, by the way.
00:12:28.000The Democrats, they are celebrating and licking their chops because they know they can get the silent majority to stay at home and act in a cynical and demoralized way by not voting at all, of which 700,000 people in Georgia, if you count the presidential election numbers from 2020, 700,000 people that voted for Donald Trump and/or Herschel on 11-8 did not vote in this runoff.
00:13:57.000We get a lot of emails of people that are there that do that.
00:14:03.000Someone says here, Charlie, you're not getting it.
00:14:05.000Georgia voters are proud to have not voted because we keep taking advice from establishment and rhino leaders.
00:14:12.000They're screaming and they only have, that's the only way they have to communicate left to put in another coach.
00:14:17.000Okay, so that's, let me make sure I understand the argument then.
00:14:21.000By not voting, I'm going to send a message to the establishment that they're going to change their ways.
00:14:28.000Not exactly convinced that's going to work.
00:14:31.000But look, here's the attitude of this program.
00:14:34.000While the thousands of people that are emailing me celebrating their non-voting, you guys, I suppose, can keep doing that and watch the downfall of America.
00:14:44.000We are going to stay engaged and optimistic, solution-oriented.
00:14:51.000We're going to talk about how we can reform our election system, about how we are able to securely be able to vote and track your vote all along the way.
00:15:01.000Someone says, Charlie, could you be more of a rhino?
00:15:05.000You're telling people to vote, give me a break.
00:15:08.000The way that you're trying to tell people to go through the system to fix things, it's going to take more than that.
00:15:28.000So look, the left right now has, and yes, just so everyone says, I just received five emails where they say, Charlotte, and these are people that have emailed the program before.
00:16:16.000And I really hate all the people that are doing bad things in Washington, but I'm too good of a person to go vote.
00:16:26.000Email us your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com and subscribe to the Charlie Kirk Show podcast.
00:16:33.000You got to really wonder and think for a second how the Democrats could have a better scenario than this.
00:16:42.000You just stay at home and don't vote and bragging about it, saying, I am going to save the country by watching a program and bragging to the rest of the world that I no longer vote.
00:16:57.000Look, we know that pregnant girls and women who can see their babies on an ultrasound are far more likely to choose life.
00:17:04.000Your gift today can save babies' lives.
00:17:08.000Just $28 can give a mother who is abortion-minded the chance to see the truth of the baby that is growing inside her.
00:17:17.000$140 can do this for five girls and women.
00:17:20.000And through December 31st, your gift doubles to save even more babies.
00:17:24.000A single $15,000 gift will provide an ultrasound machine that will save countless lives in the years to come.
00:17:30.000And because of the dollar-for-dollar match, through December 31st, your gift provides two ultrasound machines.
00:17:34.000Whether you want to save one baby or five or hundreds, the opportunity, just a phone call or click away.
00:17:40.000Pre-born saves babies, but also saves souls.
00:17:44.000Pre-born's centers lead the nations in the percentage of patients who come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
00:19:25.000And by not voting, you're guaranteeing that you have zero voice at all whatsoever.
00:19:30.000And if telling a fact that there's 700,000 people in Georgia that did not vote is self-righteous, I'm not exactly, I don't think I agree with that.
00:19:46.000Meanwhile, the Democrats, not only do they think you should vote, they think they should find votes from everybody.
00:19:52.000They find votes from the hills and the rivers and the homeless and the dead.
00:19:56.000And meanwhile, our side is doing the work of the Democrats for them.
00:20:01.000And look, just to be clear, from the thousands of people that are in the sentiment that have emailed us that believe this, they are cheering for the collapse or the, in their own words, the end of America.
00:20:14.000For example, this one here, Charlie, America is over.
00:20:22.000I don't have the luxury at 29 years old with a daughter recently married to cheer for the end of the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world.
00:20:30.000This is when we remember Pearl Harbor.
00:21:00.000Especially if you live in a Republican county that is not Fulton, that's not Cobb, that could have counted your ballot ethically and transparently.
00:21:10.000I don't think I should actually be dealing with kid gloves.
00:21:15.000Someone says, Charlie, you're not understanding the dilemma.
00:21:18.000As a psychologist, you cannot expect people to stay engaged loss after loss after loss.
00:21:53.000Many of you that are celebrating, not voting anymore, unfortunately, you're doing your own self-inflicted voter suppression, is what is happening.
00:22:05.000Someone says, Charlie, I don't believe people are actually saying they want the empire to fall.
00:22:26.000I actually assumed incorrectly that if you take time to watch this program, thank you, that you would also just automatically vote.
00:22:35.000Turns out there's a fair portion of you that are completely done and that are willing to voice that opinion.
00:22:40.000Do we have that Laura Ingram clip that we guys pulled?
00:22:43.000And I just want to say, I do sympathize with being upset with the Republican Party and not totally trusting the system, but not participating at all guarantees the other side to be able to play games.
00:22:57.000And if everything was broken and lost, how did we win the House of Representatives?
00:23:01.000If everything is broken and lost, how did Ron Johnson, who stood up against the pharmaceutical company, win in Wisconsin?
00:23:08.000If everything was broken and lost, how did Ron DeSantis win by 17 votes?
00:23:13.000How did we win the House by getting wins in California and New York?
00:23:18.000We won the House through Oregon, California, New York.
00:23:21.000I'm not, I was in the movie 2000 Mules.
00:23:24.000I sympathize with all of the sentiment.
00:23:27.000Thoughts, actually, are not as important.
00:23:31.000You can have very angry thoughts towards the system.
00:23:34.000It is actions that I will instead address.
00:23:38.000You could say, oh, this system is corrupt.
00:24:00.000And by the way, I'm tweeting out some of these emails so you could see them ourselves.
00:24:04.000The MAGA movement is committing suicide in front of our very eyes because of, and if you extrapolate that, that means they're, and we see it in the numbers, we see it in the data, millions of people that have said, we are no longer going to vote because of cynicism.
00:24:20.000And if you look at the sentiment, I share the sentiment, by the way.
00:24:25.000When I went and voted in Arizona, I even said, boy, I hope this counts.
00:26:17.000Sun Tzu in the art of war, of which the left is enacting the art of war against us.
00:26:22.000The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.
00:26:26.000You see, demoralization in the context of warfare is a process in psychological warfare with the objective to erode morale among enemy combatants and non-combatants.
00:27:25.000I think very clearly that in a representative system that we have that is based on consent of the governed, a 15 to 20 minute process to go fill out a piece of paper and put it in there and at least do the right thing.
00:27:44.000But at least you've done the very basic minimum.
00:27:48.000Democrats, I believe, have pushed forward a mass psychological warfare operation.
00:27:54.000I see it in our audience, which is, we're going to defeat ourselves.
00:27:59.000Sun Tzu, art of war, treat your men as you would your own beloved sons, and they will follow you into the deepest valley.
00:28:07.000The Republican Party has failed so many of you.
00:28:11.000The wrong way to react to the betrayal, to the backstabbing, is to then give the Democrats exactly what they want, what they would dream of.
00:29:14.000The wrong reaction to evil is complacency and cynicism.

00:32:37.000It is depressing to see a country that went from the greatest war mobilization against the Nazis and the Japanese after Pearl Harbor, storm the beaches of D-Day, lose tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people,
00:32:52.000fight for every inch, liberate Europe, build the greatest economy the world has ever seen and the freest nation the world has ever seen, to just 50, 60, 70 years later, have a cacophony of thousands of people that are bragging, that believe that the communists shouldn't take over America, that are then bragging that the simple exercise of going to a voting booth and filling out a piece of paper is a waste of time.
00:33:19.000Who needs communists when you just let them through the front door?
00:33:23.000Charlie, you're missing the whole point.
00:33:25.000Not voting actually sends a bigger message.
