00:00:00.000 Hey, everybody.
00:00:01.000 China and the Chinese Communist Party should be the front focus of every single person right now and how it impacts where we're headed as a country.
00:00:09.000 If you want to support this program, please do so by going to charliekirk.com slash support.
00:00:14.000 Email us your questions, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:00:18.000 Buckle up, everybody. 0.98
00:00:19.000 The Chinese Communist Party threat is real. 0.96
00:00:21.000 Here we go.
00:00:22.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:24.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:26.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:30.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:33.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:34.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:35.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:00:43.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:00:52.000 That's why we are here.
00:00:55.000 It's Christmas season, and we've been talking quite a lot about how we can give back.
00:01:03.000 We are partnering with Angel Tree.
00:01:05.000 Angeltree does a phenomenal job.
00:01:07.000 Angeltree makes sure that children of prisoners are not forgotten this Christmas season.
00:01:15.000 We partner with Angeltree for a reason, because they have really proven to be able to make people's lives better that really need it.
00:01:27.000 And so Angel Tree Prison Fellowship delivers a handwritten note to every single child of a prisoner that needs it, that works at the Angel Tree program.
00:01:41.000 So you guys can go to CharlieKirk.com.
00:01:43.000 There's an Angel Tree banner when you scroll down a little bit, charliekirk.com, Angel Tree Banner, and you guys can help support a child this Christmas.
00:01:57.000 For $110, you can reach five children, $220, 10 children, $550, $25 children, $1,000, 50 children, $2,200, 100 children.
00:02:09.000 Jesus famously said, let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.
00:02:16.000 Matthew 19, 14. 0.98
00:02:17.000 So go to charliekirk.com, scroll down a little bit, check it out.
00:02:20.000 We're honored to partner with Angeltree here on the Charlie Kirk show.
00:02:27.000 I hope you all had a great weekend as we get closer here to Christmas.
00:02:31.000 Not some great news today.
00:02:33.000 Right now, the Electoral College is voting to officially make Joe Biden President of the United States.
00:02:41.000 Now, mind you, many of the meetings that are happening today in the voting is not the end, but it's definitely not helpful for those of us that want to see President Trump serve a second term.
00:02:55.000 President Trump still is in many different court battles and legal challenges.
00:03:00.000 However, if the Supreme Court decision last week is any indication, courts are increasingly signaling that they do not have the appetite to fight this through their own jurisdiction.
00:03:14.000 Basically, they're sending it back down to the states.
00:03:17.000 Again, to make Joe Biden president-elect and eventually president of the United States.
00:03:21.000 Now, mind you, this does not mean that we should stop fighting.
00:03:23.000 This does not mean that it is over.
00:03:25.000 That is not what I am saying whatsoever.
00:03:28.000 But I am not going to spend an extended period of time talking about the Electoral College meeting today.
00:03:33.000 It still has to go through the House of Representatives and the United States Senate in January.
00:03:37.000 Both steps, I believe, should be challenged, especially by the United States Senate, who should play their cards to not certify the election results through the United States Senate.
00:03:50.000 Also happening today is the first delivery of the vaccine.
00:03:56.000 I want to give the president great credit for developing the vaccine in record time.
00:04:00.000 However, I, unlike some other networks and other shows, am not going to spend an extended period of time talking about how wonderful vaccines are.
00:04:09.000 I'm not going to say that they're terrible either, but that's not exactly where we're going to focus our time today.
00:04:14.000 If you believe vaccines work and you think this thing is going to help you, then so be it.
00:04:18.000 I have said this publicly, and I'll say it again.
00:04:20.000 I am not going to take this vaccine.
00:04:22.000 I'm not going to take this vaccine that has been rushed to market.
00:04:25.000 And it seems as if there's almost a pathological obsession that if you do not take this vaccine, then you are going to be ostracized from all civil society.
00:04:33.000 That is something that I find to be very concerning and quite honestly suspicious.
00:04:40.000 But something I do want to talk about is how we had a bombshell news cycle last week and in the last couple of days that half the country does not even know is happening.
00:04:54.000 And we need some clarity.
00:04:56.000 We need some clarity on what is our official relationship with the Chinese Communist Party.
00:05:08.000 What is our relationship with the Chinese Communist Party?
00:05:13.000 Some people will say that they're trading partners.
00:05:16.000 Some people use this nice poll-tested word, adversary.
00:05:19.000 I say they're an enemy. 0.93
00:05:21.000 We're now still living through the consequences of the Chinese coronavirus, the lockdowns, the escalation and suicides, mental health issues, alcoholism, depression, business closures, the erosion of our civil liberties and natural rights. 0.98
00:05:37.000 And half the country does not even know that people at the highest levels of our government have been compromised, intimately compromised by the Chinese Communist Party. 0.88
00:05:52.000 The significance of what's happening in our country when it comes to who's actually going to lead us on January 20th, whether it will be President Trump or Joe Biden. 0.85
00:06:05.000 The significance is so great as it comes to what will determine the next decade.
00:06:14.000 We already have mountains of evidence that the Chinese Communist Party is funding the Sierra Club and other environmental groups. 0.84
00:06:21.000 They're behind BLM Incorporated and other racial insurrection groups. 0.98
00:06:26.000 At least they're vocally supportive of them. 0.96
00:06:30.000 New evidence out today shows that CNN, MSNBC, NBC News, and the major networks dedicated almost zero minutes. 0.59
00:06:41.000 I think CNN had three minutes total to covering Eric Swalwell in a relationship with Fang Fang, a Chinese spy.
00:06:55.000 And so the question should be, what is our relationship with China? 0.53
00:07:01.000 Is it one where we have decided that we no longer want America to exist?
00:07:05.000 And this is exactly why liberals get along so well with China. 0.71
00:07:12.000 You see, liberals and corporations have finally found something they can agree on for different reasons.
00:07:20.000 They have both found agreement that China's rise is a good thing.
00:07:29.000 You see, liberals want to see China's rise to power because it means America's demise. 0.66
00:07:34.000 Liberals and leftists want to see America crushed.
00:07:38.000 They believe America to be a phallo-logocentric, heteronormative, Western experiment that is a patriarchal exploitation, colonialist, racist civilization.
00:07:52.000 If all those words sound overly academic, that's exactly what your children learn when they go to college.
00:07:59.000 Big words that have very little meaning and no wisdom whatsoever.
00:08:04.000 Lots of knowledge, no wisdom.
00:08:07.000 Just venom, hatred, and antagonism towards the West. 0.66
00:08:12.000 So liberals are perfectly happy to literally sleep with Chinese Communist Party surrogates, allegedly, like Eric Swawell and Fang Feng.
00:08:26.000 But also the corporations that we entrusted so much of the backbone of our country, they like China's rise because that means cheaper markets to be able to produce their goods, sell some of the goods back to them as China gets richer, and with it, the deindustrialization of America.
00:08:51.000 Newsweek out today, as China leads quantum computing race, U.S. spies plan for a world with fewer secrets. 0.83
00:09:02.000 The Chinese Communist Party, they have no morals or values. 0.68
00:09:06.000 They don't create anything. 0.89
00:09:07.000 They're not entrepreneurs.
00:09:09.000 They're not creators. 0.98
00:09:10.000 They're thieves. 0.99
00:09:11.000 They're robber barons. 1.00
00:09:12.000 They're gangsters.
00:09:14.000 But one of the major reasons why China continues to get wealthier, China is completely open, and they've been open for nearly six months, despite the Chinese coronavirus originating in Wuhan. 0.64
00:09:31.000 One of the major reasons why they continually get wealthier and more powerful is that we do not have clarity on who they are.
00:09:41.000 You see, many Republicans are now waking up to the fact that our corporate leaders and the trillionaire class that control our trillion-dollar corporations, they have had no loyalty to our country whatsoever.
00:09:54.000 They've had no patriotic underpinning.
00:09:58.000 Instead, all they've cared about is maximizing profits, re-domiciling labor markets, whining and dining Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party.
00:10:10.000 Many of our political leaders are exactly the same.
00:10:13.000 Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, through the family business of selling access to the highest levels of government, they perfected the art of the steal, not the art of the deal.
00:10:26.000 The art of stealing America's position in the world.
00:10:34.000 And Eric Swawell, literally sleeping with the Chinese Communist Party, has given more of an in-kind contribution to the CCP than any other individual could have in the last couple years. 0.56
00:10:46.000 The Chinese Communist Party, they dream of a day where America thinks Russia is our greatest geopolitical threat.
00:10:56.000 And yet the Gatestone Institute has come out and said that there are Chinese military bases now being built in the Caribbean.
00:11:03.000 New evidence goes to show that the Chinese Communist Party has purchased land in Texas next to military installations.
00:11:11.000 A Chinese Communist Party leak, according from nationalphile.com, shows that Pfizer and AstraZeneca employed 123 Communist Party members.
00:11:20.000 Another leak exposes roughly 2 million Chinese Communist Party members spying globally. 0.60
00:11:27.000 And yet we have this strange obsession with Russia and not challenging what is our greatest enemy, the Chinese Communist Party. 0.72
00:11:43.000 Look, it's not often you get a gift for yourself, but I need to tell you about something that you got to buy. 0.94
00:11:48.000 It's called a hedge against all the craziness in the market.
00:11:52.000 It's a free 22-carat American gold eagle coin.
00:11:56.000 Not bad, right?
00:11:57.000 A free 22-carat American gold eagle coin in a special presentation box.
00:12:02.000 To qualify, you have to take out a precious metals, IRA, or 401k rollover with noble gold.
00:12:08.000 Makes a lot of sense right now to keep your savings and investment safe.
00:12:11.000 Who knows what the next administration will do or what's going to happen.
00:12:14.000 So look, we don't know what's coming next.
00:12:16.000 And you have to have a hedge.
00:12:18.000 They're creating money.
00:12:20.000 Austrian School of Economics is completely under attack.
00:12:23.000 So if you guys want to hedge against all the market volatility and we know what's coming, inflation is coming.
00:12:28.000 Call 877-646-5347 and get this special coin offer, but don't hang around.
00:12:33.000 That's 877-646-5347.
00:12:36.000 Tell them that Charlie Kirk sent you.
00:12:38.000 Again, that's Noble Gold, 877-646-5347. 0.99
00:12:45.000 Hank Paulson, who is a ruling class government sax fool. 0.96
00:12:51.000 All he cares about is making sure very wealthy people stay that way. 0.95
00:12:56.000 Says, Hank Paulson, who famously said when it came to the United States bailout package back in 2008, 2009, that we need a bazooka, not a water gun.
00:13:12.000 Hank Paulson screwed that up.
00:13:15.000 And he says, how to fix our relationship with China?
00:13:19.000 I could just see so many of these people writing articles in.
00:13:25.000 I don't know if the Guardian existed back in the 1930s.
00:13:28.000 I'd imagine The Guardian existed in the 1930s.
00:13:31.000 And whatever the top newspaper was back in the 1930s in London.
00:13:35.000 I bet the Guardian exists.
00:13:36.000 I bet The Spectator still existed too.
00:13:38.000 Everything in London and Britain is at least a couple hundred years old.
00:13:42.000 Saying how to fix our fraught relationship with the National Socialist Workers' Party in Germany.
00:13:49.000 I could just see the articles being written.
00:13:52.000 Joe Biden is framing himself and is going to be coming onto, if he becomes president of the United States, he will be on a platform that will be closer to that of Neville Chamberlain.
00:14:10.000 Peace in our time.
00:14:12.000 We will do peace with the Chinese Communist Party.
00:14:15.000 Even though the Chinese Communist Party is just as, if not more evil than the 1930s fascists and the National Socialist Workers' Party, it's not even a question of how do we measure evil. 0.59
00:14:27.000 I mean, it's a, you're trimming at the edges.
00:14:30.000 The Chinese Communist Party is, they want global domination, and they're not making the same mistakes of these internationalist global potential superpowers in the 20th century.
00:14:47.000 They're not making the same mistakes as the National Socialist Workers' Party or as the Soviet Union. 0.63
00:14:53.000 Instead, they are using the weaknesses of the West against us.
00:14:58.000 They are using the liability, the political correctness movement, the idea that we must censor our speech, that we must destroy masculinity, that we must surrender to unproven,
00:15:25.000 unsubstantiated myths and lies about our country. 0.71
00:15:31.000 The Chinese Communist Party is cheering on all of that.
00:15:34.000 And most of our political leaders in finance, in sports, in media, are purchased wholesale by the Chinese Communist Party. 0.99
00:15:47.000 Hank Paulson writes in the Wall Street Journal: Many people believe there will be a military crisis between the U.S. and China, and with good reason.
00:15:53.000 But our military and diplomatic strength is rooted in a strong economy, and the path to economic success begins at home.
00:16:00.000 Mr. Biden must crush COVID-19 and fix our economy to bolster economic competitiveness.
00:16:06.000 If we do this, the U.S. will be dominant world power no matter what China does.
00:16:09.000 It feels like this was written by the Chamber of Commerce or the Chamber of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:16:18.000 We must reject the notion that we don't benefit from an economic relationship with China.
00:16:23.000 This is written by Hank Paulson.
00:16:24.000 I wonder how much he was paid by Xi Ji Ping to write this. 0.79
00:16:27.000 It is not unpatriotic to say this.
00:16:29.000 Indeed, our workers and farmers have the potential to benefit to a much greater extent from a more balanced relationship with the world's fastest-growing economy.
00:16:38.000 As the two largest global economies, it is in the interest of Americans, the Chinese, and the world that the U.S. and China find a way to reboot economic growth.
00:16:47.000 While much more remains to be done, China has taken steps in the right direction.
00:16:54.000 You see, Hank Paulson, he's not a patriot.
00:16:57.000 Hank Paulson is a Wall Street technocrat who cares about serving the wants, needs, desires, and interests of a lustful, power-hungry ruling class.
00:17:11.000 They have a lust for power that can only be satisfied with global domination.
00:17:18.000 And what Hank Paulson and the economic elites are pushing for is actually very clear.
00:17:28.000 We know where this is all headed.
00:17:32.000 We have a blueprint.
00:17:35.000 And part of that blueprint is similar to the countries and the civilizations in the 20th century that created and printed so much money that it had no value whatsoever.
00:17:52.000 Now, why would the wealthiest people actually want inflation?
00:17:56.000 Because inflation is finally coming.
00:17:59.000 In fact, they're admitting it.
00:18:02.000 The front page of yahoo.com, it says inflation is on its way for 2021.
00:18:08.000 Here's what it means for you.
00:18:12.000 This is the most important topic that no one wants to talk about.
00:18:15.000 More important than the vaccine, more important than anything else when it comes to economics.
00:18:20.000 What is inflation?
00:18:22.000 Well, inflation is when the money supply outpaces economic growth, outpaces productivity, and there are more dollar bills or there are more pieces of currency than there is value to represent.
00:18:38.000 It's a pretty obvious thing.
00:18:40.000 We talk about inflation every so often.
00:18:43.000 People use the famous examples of Zimbabwe or the Weimar Republic.
00:18:49.000 But I was actually watching a documentary on the Weimar Republic this weekend.
00:18:55.000 Yes, that is how I spend my free time on the weekends.
00:18:59.000 And as I was watching the documentary on the Weimar Republic, there was a very interesting 45 seconds that I had to keep on rewinding.
00:19:10.000 And basically, it said something that was so obvious, or it should be so obvious, but we don't say it enough.
00:19:21.000 And then we don't connect it to what's happening right now in front of us.
00:19:25.000 And so the narrator or one of the documentarians said the dollar bills or the currency, I think it was the German mark, the Weimar mark, it was $100 million to just go buy a loaf of bread.
00:19:39.000 And you've probably seen those famous pictures where people are bringing wheelbarrows, wheelbarrows of dollar bills or German marks.
00:19:46.000 I can't remember the exact term of the currency they use into supermarkets.
00:19:50.000 And then one of the narrators said something, and it all made sense.
00:19:55.000 He said, the currency was so useless that a reboot was needed.
00:20:05.000 And I had to rewind it.
00:20:06.000 I said, a reboot was needed, and the currency was a Reichmark.
00:20:12.000 I said, a reboot, and I kept on rewinding it.
00:20:15.000 Reboot.
00:20:16.000 You mean like a reset?
00:20:20.000 We've talked about the great reset quite often here on this program, which is a plan that is being implemented by the World Economic Forum by the billionaire and trillionaire class, the Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, tech elites, the Roman Emperor Caesar Pharaoh, czar class that are not satisfied that they have a higher net worth than Slovakia,
00:20:46.000 but instead now they want a global reboot, a reset.
00:20:50.000 So as I was watching this old documentary on the Weimar Republic, I realized that the playbook that led to 1930s National Socialist Workers' Germany, that unintentionally led to it, I should say, might be used again.
00:21:09.000 If the ruling class renders currency so useless that normal people have to bring wheelbarrows full of money, even though most people don't have dollar bills anymore, it's all just a fiat currency in your bank account, then how are you going to get bread and food?
00:21:28.000 And maybe it might result in massive clamoring for people to demand a currency reset.
00:21:36.000 Now, I can hear a lot of you say, well, Charlie, why would rich people want that?
00:21:40.000 Wouldn't that make them poorer?
00:21:42.000 No. 0.72
00:21:42.000 Inflation helps wealthy people. 0.72
00:21:46.000 You have to understand that the billionaires and the trillionaires that control Google and Amazon, they don't have a lot of their assets in cash.
00:21:56.000 They have a very small part of their portfolio in cash.
00:21:59.000 First of all, you see the wealthiest people in our country buying massive amounts of land.
00:22:06.000 That should be a warning sign for everyone.
00:22:09.000 When the wealthiest people in any civilization start buying up huge swaths of land, I'm talking about hundreds of millions of acres of land.
00:22:18.000 Watch out.
00:22:19.000 Because land is one of the few things when your currency is rendered useless that you can actually trade, that you can use, that has value.
00:22:26.000 Land can be mined, it can be settled on, reservoirs, water.
00:22:30.000 Land is real.
00:22:31.000 Things that you can touch do very well in the midst of inflation.
00:22:39.000 Things that you can visit, things that you can occupy.
00:22:45.000 The same with gold, with silver, with hard assets.
00:22:50.000 And also the same with durable companies that actually make things.
00:22:56.000 So much of the ruling class has their assets diversified in ownership stock of companies that are going to do just fine, like Amazon, who can adjust their prices regardless of any sort of inflation that might be coming.
00:23:11.000 They're buying hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars of land.
00:23:18.000 And they will be wealthier than ever before.
00:23:20.000 Now, what is the main driver of this?
00:23:23.000 Debt.
00:23:25.000 Debt is the addiction that we have been unable to free ourselves of here in our country.
00:23:32.000 And not just the national debt.
00:23:34.000 I have been railing against the national debt since I was in high school, thanks to a good friend of mine who I believe is listening to this program right now, maybe on AM560 Deanster in Chicago.
00:23:45.000 Not just national debt, but personal debt, credit card debt, mortgage debt is manageable, but debt in every single fashion of society, every vertical.
00:23:57.000 Every aspect of how we live is based on leverage.
00:24:03.000 When you leverage yourself to such an unsustainable level, you can then do a couple things to get out of debt.
00:24:13.000 You can cut spending, which many people do not want to do.
00:24:18.000 You can raise revenues, raise taxes to pay down the debt, or you can do the one thing that almost every civilization before us has done.
00:24:29.000 From England to Rome to even the Weimar Republic, you can inflate your way out of the debt.
00:24:36.000 So when you have a $26 trillion debt and your dollar is worth a certain amount, and all of a sudden that dollar is worth 50% less, all of a sudden that $26 trillion debt put in perspective is actually not as much because the money supply has been increased so dramatically.
00:24:54.000 Now, who does this hurt?
00:24:56.000 The plumbers, the electricians, the veterans, the teachers.
00:25:01.000 But it benefits people that already have hard assets, that can put their assets to work.
00:25:06.000 And now you're finally starting to see the ruling class say, oh, inflation's coming.
00:25:13.000 Great time to buy land.
00:25:15.000 Great time to buy something you could touch.
00:25:17.000 Great time to actually get invested into something that is not esoteric.
00:25:22.000 But a lot of people don't even have money to invest because you shut down their whole country because we shut down every single aspect of our civilization.
00:25:38.000 And so, why are they doing this?
00:25:42.000 Well, the Roman Emperor class is who I call the big tech, big data companies, the Bezos people and the Bill Gates clan.
00:25:55.000 They want a globalist, one-size-fits-all program.
00:26:01.000 They articulate it in the great reset from the World Economic Forum.
00:26:05.000 And as our currency becomes absolutely meaningless, all of a sudden, other countries like China can start to fill that void.
00:26:19.000 Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, they are not patriots.
00:26:22.000 They are corporatists.
00:26:24.000 All they care about is making Amazon more powerful than America.
00:26:30.000 You see, Jeff Bezos wants Amazon to be the new Washington, D.C. Jeff Bezos, no different than Alexander the Great building his army from Macedonia to India.
00:26:48.000 Jeff Bezos is a conqueror of a different kind.
00:26:50.000 Instead of raising armies and pillaging villages in the traditional sense that Alexander the Great or Napoleon or Genghis Khan or the Vikings would have before, Jeff Bezos takes over cities and states through addicting them to cheap piles of plastic from China delivered to their home in a matter of minutes, spying and surveilling on everything that is said thanks to Amazon Alexa.
00:27:20.000 The content that you watch is consumed, is brought to you by Prime Video.
00:27:26.000 And their way of conquering Is not with tanks or horses, chariots, or standing armies.
00:27:36.000 It's with dumping products that we don't need and destroying the industrial base.
00:27:40.000 Now, Alexander the Great and Amazon have the same driving impulse: domination.
00:27:48.000 It's part of who we are, it's built into us.
00:27:51.000 That's why we like markets.
00:27:53.000 It's why we like competition.
00:27:55.000 What Amazon is doing is anti-competitive, it is anti-market.
00:28:06.000 And the country right now is about to go through a reckoning, regardless of who wins.
00:28:13.000 And if President Trump ends up being successful, he is the best chance we have to prevent this.
00:28:21.000 But if Joe Biden becomes president of the United States, brace for impact.
00:28:28.000 Because we will have simultaneous crises going at once.
00:28:32.000 And do not be surprised in the midst of one of those crises, all of a sudden, a currency economic reset is all of a sudden pitched to the American people.
00:28:42.000 But my guess is once we get to that point, people will be clamoring for it because they will not be able to afford a home, a gallon of gasoline. 0.87
00:28:53.000 And then the conquerors, the Alexander Greats of our time, they'll be in total control.
00:29:02.000 This is something that a lot of people are afraid to talk about.
00:29:04.000 This is beyond right versus left.
00:29:06.000 This is beyond traditional politics.
00:29:10.000 This is civilization altering.
00:29:13.000 Every great civilization from Imperial England to Rome to Greece falls because of debt and what they did in response to it.
00:29:26.000 Inflation, the destruction and the deterioration of the middle class. 0.80
00:29:30.000 Inflation is a tactic, as Lenin used to say, to destroy working people.
00:29:39.000 With the turning point movement that we have started on campuses across the country, I've had the honor of traveling to many of these universities and engage in rigorous debate with the next generation.
00:29:51.000 When you talk to as many students as I do, there are several familiar themes.
00:29:55.000 I see disillusionment with the media, a lack of hope in their job prospects, and I hear them commonly claim that they're victims and that they deserve better.
00:30:02.000 While college students actually realize it or not, they're forming ideologies that will affect the way they think and treat others for a lifetime.
00:30:10.000 I like to recommend a great book to any young person in this time of life.
00:30:14.000 It's called Reflections on the Existence of God by best-selling author Richard Simmons III.
00:30:18.000 This guy doesn't shy away from the hardest questions of life.
00:30:21.000 Reflections on the existence of God is a collection of short essays that tackles the biggest question of all: does God exist?
00:30:29.000 This book is well researched and easy to read.
00:30:31.000 One of the most important things a young person can do is to solidify their worldview.
00:30:35.000 Our worldview informs our personal, social, and political lives.
00:30:39.000 It helps us understand our purpose.
00:30:41.000 So I'm challenging college students to ask themselves life's toughest questions.
00:30:45.000 Dive in and get this book today.
00:30:46.000 Reflections on the existence of God.
00:30:48.000 Go to reflectionscharlie.com.
00:30:50.000 That's reflectionscharlie.com.
00:30:52.000 Then drop me a line with your thoughts at freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:30:56.000 Thanks so much, everybody.
00:30:57.000 Again, it's Reflections on the Existence of God, a great book.
00:31:01.000 Check it out.
00:31:04.000 I want to get to a cultural issue, which I just caught my eye, and that was the Cleveland Indians have officially decided to drop their controversial team name.
00:31:17.000 No one was talking about this, by the way.
00:31:21.000 This is not something that was, let's just say, a top-tier focus of people.
00:31:25.000 The Cleveland Indians will soon be no more.
00:31:27.000 I'm reading from the New York Post, terrific website.
00:31:30.000 Following the path of the Washington football team, Cleveland has decided to remove its name, which many consider racist and insensitive.
00:31:37.000 Who?
00:31:38.000 Who are these people?
00:31:39.000 Many consider the 105-year-old Indians.
00:31:42.000 Moniker has for decades drawn ire from Native American groups.
00:31:47.000 And those frustrations became more prevalent in the United States in the midst of the reckoning on racism and social injustice following police shootings involving unarmed black men and women.
00:31:58.000 What unarmed people are they talking about?
00:32:01.000 Are they talking about the fact that Breonna Taylor's boyfriend started shooting at police?
00:32:06.000 There's no specifics here.
00:32:09.000 So if we're going to start to go through mass deletion, I would like to submit some evidence to the tribunal.
00:32:17.000 I would like to submit some names that I think need to be changed and institutions I think need to be rendered racist.
00:32:25.000 Let's start with Stanford University.
00:32:27.000 Stanford University was founded by Leland Stanford.
00:32:30.000 Some people would call him a robber baron who was involved in building the Transcontinental Railroad.
00:32:37.000 Some people would say that he used slave labor to construct that railroad.
00:32:43.000 How about Yale University?
00:32:45.000 Yale University, of course, founded by, I can never say this name, Elihu.
00:32:51.000 I think that's how you say it.
00:32:52.000 Elihu, Yale, who was a slave trader.
00:32:56.000 Let's rename Yale University.
00:32:58.000 In fact, let's stop playing Wagner music.
00:33:02.000 Let's stop playing all Wagner because Wagner hated Jews. 0.82
00:33:08.000 Even better, why don't we rename Stuyvesant, New York? 0.96
00:33:12.000 You guys ever heard of Bedford Stuyvesant, New York, Bedstein?
00:33:16.000 Let's rename Bedstein.
00:33:19.000 Why?
00:33:20.000 Well, because Stuyvesant hated Jews. 0.93
00:33:23.000 He was also an anti-Semite.
00:33:26.000 How about Brown University?
00:33:28.000 Brown University is named after often brutal slave traders.
00:33:34.000 Do you start to see all of a sudden where the sequence of societal and cultural cancellation can start to reach thresholds of mass insanity?
00:33:47.000 Now, mind you, I was pleasantly surprised of one cancellation.
00:33:52.000 When Princeton University got rid of Woodrow Wilson in the Woodrow Wilson School of Government, Woodrow Wilson was a pro-Soviet, anti-American, racist, one-world government president.
00:34:07.000 In fact, it's not very well known and it's not taught to our children.
00:34:11.000 Woodrow Wilson actually spoke positively when the Russian Revolution was happening.
00:34:22.000 Democrat President Woodrow Wilson on April 2nd, 1917, said, quote, Does not every American feel that assurance has been added to our hope for the future of peace of our world by the wonderful and heartening things that have been happening within the last few weeks in Russia?
00:34:37.000 That was right after the Bolshevik, that was right at the beginning of the Bolshevik Revolution coming up to red October.
00:34:45.000 That is what Woodrow Wilson had to say.
00:34:49.000 But look, we're reaching a point right now that the left, they will never stop.
00:34:57.000 This is one of the fallacies that the Chamber of Commerce establishment Republicans operate under, as if the left has their appetite full.
00:35:05.000 Eventually they'll leave the table.
00:35:07.000 They'll say, we've had enough. 1.00
00:35:08.000 These people are parasites, metaphorically, okay? 1.00
00:35:14.000 The left is a movement of parasites, I should say. 1.00
00:35:18.000 They want to culturally destroy everything. 0.99
00:35:22.000 And no, if Media Matter is listening to that, I'm not comparing people to insects, okay?
00:35:27.000 I'm saying that, as Gad Saad would say, they have a parasitic mentality that they leach onto and destroy and try and take over anything that is healthy and is good, not building anything anew.
00:35:44.000 Should we rename Indiana? 0.99
00:35:46.000 Because that was named after Indians?
00:35:49.000 You can see where this all lands.
00:35:53.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
