00:00:00.000Today on the Charlie Kirk show, my pastor, the wonderful Pastor Rob McCoy from God Speak Calvary Chapel in Thousand Oaks, California, fills in for me as I was closing out Turning Point USA's America Fest, where he interviewed two amazing young people.
00:00:12.000One of them tried to commit suicide and survived.
00:00:16.000And he attributes part of his healing process to Turning Point USA.
00:00:23.000So for those of you that support the show at charliekirk.com/slash support or support us at Turning Point USA or start a high school or college chapter and help strengthen our movement, you're part of something bigger than yourself.
00:01:06.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:03:22.000So I have a legitimate medical condition that physically keeps me from wearing a mask.
00:03:28.000And when I brought it to my school, we came up with a few accommodations that I could go to school maskless and everybody could still feel safe in somewhat of a way.
00:03:40.000So these accommodations would include arriving at school as a separate time of anyone.
00:05:08.000So when we got there, my principal and a security guard was there, and I had to force my way through them to get into class.
00:05:16.000And I made it to all my classes that day, but I really wasn't able to learn anything because I was constantly being harassed about not wearing a mask.
00:05:41.000Their accommodations are they take me out of my mainstream classes, so my SMT classes, and they put me in a credit recovery class for seniors who are failing high school.
00:05:51.000And I have to sit in a three-wall plexiglass box.
00:05:54.000So your mom, Megan, her tax dollars with this public education, you're now relegated to the back of the, I mean, you're just, it's awful what they've done to you.
00:09:05.000And the day Taven got out of the hospital, I went over to his house and I hung out with him from the moment he was out of the hospital till he left for Arizona.
00:10:51.000And you need to get Good Ranchers because I could tell you right now, you got to support our country, support the Good Ranchers, and also, I know you got to eat.

00:12:03.000Folks across the country need to hear this because we're talking about a fear of a virus and we're watching a generation being so adversely affected by the tyrannical lockdown orders and you both lost your schools and you lost friends.
00:12:28.000I met her when she was 13 when I was in Washington.
00:12:31.000You came up to me and you wanted to tell me that here you are, a straight A student, AP, you want to go into, you know, you love education.
00:13:03.000They're not even, that's just not happening anymore.
00:13:05.000You went before the school board at your age to take them on and to contend with them.
00:13:10.000And in the midst of all that you're dealing with, you lose two friends to suicide because your entire generation is dealing with depression.
00:13:16.000And none of these medical officers and these officials are talking about it.
00:15:48.000Everybody out there right now, what brought you to this place of despair?
00:15:52.000Because everyone will be able to see it in that generation.
00:15:55.000Uh, there was like no sports were open, uh, every single one that you had closed.
00:16:01.000Uh, the schools they were shut, like the schools were all shut down.
00:16:06.000Uh, you had to wear masks, and you it was like parents wouldn't let their children outside because they were scared of COVID.
00:16:15.000And you were you were enveloped in fear.
00:16:18.000I wasn't, but everybody else was internet privacy is extremely important.
00:16:25.000New news out shows that Google has been colluding with the federal government to hand over your data if you might have searched something wrong into the search bar.
00:16:36.000So, what are you doing to protect your search history?
00:16:39.000Well, this is why you need Express VPN.
00:16:42.000Using the internet without ExpressVPN is like going to the bathroom and not closing the door.
00:16:49.000It's inviting someone to the bathroom, which is really weird and creepy.
00:16:52.000Internet service providers know every single website you visit.
00:16:56.000ISPs can sell this data and information to ad companies and tech giants who then use your data to target you.
00:17:03.000Express VPN creates a secure, encrypted tunnel between your device and the internet.
00:17:09.000So, your online activity cannot be seen by anyone.
00:17:12.000It's as easy as closing the bathroom door and fire up the app and click one button.
00:17:16.000I use it on all my devices, every device.
00:17:19.000I have those beautiful three letters: VPN with a rectangle around it.
00:17:24.000It's rated number one by CNET and tech radar.
00:17:28.000Here's the cool thing: it works on phones, laptops, and even routers.
00:17:31.000So, everyone who shares your Wi-Fi can be protected.
00:17:35.000Here's the thing: I have it on my iPhone, I have it on my iPad, I have it on my computer.
00:17:40.000Express VPN for me has been a game changer to be able to know that the tech companies or the government have to go through a whole nother barrier to try to spy on us.
00:17:52.000And we see with the new announcements out of DC.
00:17:54.000If you spoke at a school board meeting lately, you better get a VPN.
00:17:57.000Secure your online activity by visiting expressvpn.com/slash Charlie today.
00:18:16.000I asked you what brought you to that place of depression that you would want to take your life, put a gun to the back of your head and pull that trigger, and you had a 2% chance of living.
00:18:27.000And you said something that absolutely stunned me.
00:19:14.000This is this is what the young people are feeling as we're sequestering them, shuttering them, especially in nine of the 50 states that have draconian measures.
00:19:21.000You and I, Melanie, live in two of those, California and Washington.
00:19:25.000And where are these health officials talking about the trauma on our teenagers?
00:19:58.000And the past two years, I didn't know.
00:20:01.000Like, am I going to be able to have a normal high school experience?
00:20:05.000Am I going to be able to go to prom like a normal kid?
00:20:08.000Am I going to be able to do all of these things that I was so excited for?
00:20:13.000Like it was so scary thinking about all of that being taken away from me.
00:20:19.000Well, and I'm, and I'm, like I said to the folks, I've met you in Washington, but I met you here at the turning point event, hey, and you were brought here.
00:22:58.000So knowing that there are people closer to my age that have the same beliefs as me, who do want to like stand up for freedom and stuff is, it gives me hope.
00:23:09.000And I think if we can educate others about what we believe, I think I know I've talked to quite a few people who have changed their ideas about certain things.
00:24:32.000So I, at the end of our school board, our end of our last in-person school board meeting, I served my board with legal documents and I told them that.
00:26:23.000I plan on going to college for political science and becoming a lawyer for a few years, probably like four or five years, and then slowly working my way up through the government and hopefully becoming president one day.
00:26:36.000That's my home for Melanie Gabriel for president.
00:27:07.000How could you guys, I mean, your mom, by your own admission, was not a conservative.
00:27:13.000How did you guys come to a place where you want to come to a turning point of that, where you're hearing the premier conservative speakers in America?
00:27:20.000Why would 14-year-olds want to come and listen to people talk?
00:27:42.000I think, like, Having hearing all of this, hearing people's ideas that I strongly agree with, that it's just, it's inspiring and it fills me with so much joy that I lack when I am at home, not at school.
00:28:06.000You guys were telling me that the lockdown, you guys had to do school over Zoom.
00:28:09.000And I would always tell people as a minister, watching church online is like watching a fireplace.
00:28:14.000You can hear it and see it, but you can't feel the warmth.
00:28:16.000Going to school online, I don't blame you guys for being so bummed out and depressed, but you guys, instead of just being victims of it, you are more than victors.
00:28:43.000So I want to talk a little bit more about your generation.
00:28:46.000I want to talk about where we go from here and how folks across America can encourage the young people and what's needed to stop these officials from doing what they're doing.
00:28:58.000Because, you know, we're dealing with the medical viral side of this and we're just up in arms and we're showing data to scare the daylights out of people, but they don't talk about the mental health that is devastating our young people.
00:29:11.000And you guys have been a tremendous testimony of that today.
00:29:33.000Inflation is here, everybody, and you've got to do something about it.
00:29:36.000Put some of your assets into precious metals and it will keep your money away from the volatility markets and inflation to let you sleep at night.

00:30:46.000You want to be able to fight for your generation.
00:30:49.000And I want to set this up for the two of you to speak.
00:30:51.000As a minister, pastors across the country, they usually stay out of politics because they believe, I believe inappropriately, that there's a separation of church and state.
00:31:03.000Well, let's just say they believe that.
00:31:04.000Well, now the state has infused itself into the church.
00:31:07.000And so churches are being forced to be political.
00:32:46.000Here you have Tay as a friend because you reached out in a time where he was in his crisis because you lost two friends.
00:32:51.000We're seeing redemption in your generation that has been devastated by this tyrannical lockdown and misery that they've perpetrated on y'all.
00:33:00.000We help America understand how we can get out of this and what you need the adults in the room to do.
00:33:08.000Would you plead to them and talk to them for me?
00:33:37.000And if it's something they really don't want to do, then don't push them to.
00:33:41.000But if they are complaining about the things that are happening and they want to do something about it, they just don't know where to start.
