00:01:33.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:13.000We're on Monday now, so we have a bunch of breakouts.
00:02:15.000And then coming in just about an hour and a half, we have James O'Keefe restarting general session, our Salem Radio Network colleague, Dr. Sebastian Gork.
00:02:22.000I heard Dennis Prager give a phenomenal speech yesterday.
00:02:32.000We also have an amazing panel that we're going to post on our Charlie Kirk Show podcast.
00:02:38.000We have a couple of things where I'm not even involved in directly.
00:02:41.000I'm involved, obviously, but we're just going to post, and I'm going to do an intro.
00:02:44.000The Election Integrity Panel, I think, is one of them with Biggs, Gosar, and Kyle Becker.
00:02:50.000Yeah, and well, there was also the Arizona Election Integrity Panels.
00:02:54.000Alex Marlowe, who's going to be joining Charlie for the second half of this hour, was, I mean, you know, he was phenomenal.
00:03:03.000Just approached it like a journalist, asked a bunch of questions that we all thought about, right?
00:03:08.000So if you guys are curious what happened in Arizona with the audit and where they're going from going from now into the future, you're going to want to check that out as well.
00:03:17.000Yeah, and we also had a phenomenal conversation with James Lindsay and Alex Marlowe that we are going to post on the Charlie Kirk Show podcast that you guys can find on the Charlie Kirk Show podcast feed around critical race theory, wokeism, diversity, equity, inclusion.
00:05:40.000And by the way, the headlines from some of the coverage that we've been seeing, I think people are taken aback, Charlie, at the focus that people like you and Tucker, but a lot of the other speakers have put on social issues.
00:05:53.000Well, yeah, and they call it social issues.
00:05:55.000And I think they do that to try, I don't know what their motivation is, social issues.
00:06:03.000What really is family-focused issues and parent-focused issues, right?
00:06:07.000I mean, this is not a matter of social versus fiscal.
00:06:10.000I think it's bad for the family that you have runaway inflation.
00:06:13.000I think it's bad for the family that you have borders wide open, right?
00:06:18.000I think it's a family-focused agenda and a parent-first agenda.
00:07:55.000You know, The drama in the ranks of the Democrat Party took, I mean, went to another level.
00:08:02.000I mean, we've been predicting this Democrat Civil War for a long time, and remarkably, they've stayed relatively together, mainly because Pelosi's a tyrant.
00:08:10.000We have to remember, though, that Biden got the stimulus package passed early in the spring, which was just kind of like, okay, whatever.
00:08:17.000Then the infrastructure, and now you have Build Back Better that got eliminated.
00:08:21.000But we have a much more cynical take, which we think Build Back Better was dead on arrival for quite some time.
00:08:26.000And all of this melodrama is trying to point towards the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
00:08:30.000That's really what they want to get after, right?
00:08:36.000I mean, you covered this extensively, but it's a for people who don't know, it's a backdoor, it's an end-around, basically criminalizing anytime a state wants to enforce election integrity or signature verify.
00:09:20.000Inflation is here, everybody, and you've got to do something about it.
00:09:24.000Put 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.

00:10:21.000I mean, the thing that you realize when you hang out with Tucker, sort of, you know, when he's not on screen or something like that, is that the man spends hours deeply thinking about what really matters.
00:10:33.000I mean, that's literally, he's devoted himself to only basically thinking about his family, his wife, his kids.
00:10:42.000You know, he flew here in the morning and then flew back at night just so he could be back with his family.
00:10:47.000The man is absolutely devoted to his family and he thinks about what matters, like I said.
00:10:53.000And it's really, you just see it with how profound some of his thinking is.
00:10:57.000And he always, he sort of says, oh, I don't have a very, you know, I'm not that smart.
00:11:01.000And these people are much smarter than me.
00:11:03.000And it's like, you know, you hang out with him for a little while and you're like, I don't know why you're saying, maybe that's what smart people say that you're not that smart because he's incredibly profound.
00:11:12.000Well, so you'll be able to check out the whole conversation with Tucker Carlson on the Charlie Kirk Show podcast.
00:11:16.000Okay, so over the weekend, let's just kind of get right into it.
00:11:19.000Joe Manchin surprisingly went on Fox News.
00:11:40.000I think it was on Chris Wallace's show with a substitute host, and he didn't tell Joe Biden ahead of time he was doing this, and he announced he will not be voting for Build Back Better, torpedoing the bill.
00:11:51.000Biden tried to call Joe Manchin and get him off the on the phone, did so unsuccessfully.
00:12:37.000Okay, Politico had an interesting piece on this.
00:12:39.000So basically, Politico, uh, the reason I read this is because there's a specific quote in it that I think a lot of our listeners are going to get a lot of enjoyment out of.
00:12:50.000It says, a blow to Democrat Party governance.
00:12:53.000After this year, Democrats are unlikely to control the White House and all of Congress for a long, long time.
00:12:59.000I added that second long, but it's true.
00:13:01.000And Politico's whole point was: is it really dead?
00:13:04.000So, what's happening now, Schumer is that basically the White House issues this scathing statement against Manchin.
00:13:11.000AOC, Ilhan Omar, went on a profanity-lace tirade.
00:13:38.000I mean, if they scale it all the way back, their child tax credits, their climate stuff, all of this, the spending that again was full of gimmicks and accounting tricks.
00:13:48.000I mean, this thing is way more expensive than they're letting on.
00:14:25.000In fact, producer Andrew, big fan of this company, UnderTech, U-N-D-E-R-T-A-C, the only men's basic brand that is unapologetically Christian, pro-American, pro-military, and very proudly Second Amendment.
00:14:38.000They put comfort and functionality first by integrating a quick release fly and secret pocket in the extra wide waistband for cash or tactical necessities.
00:14:46.000They're also anti-bacterial, anti-pilling, and moisture-wicking fabric is super soft and comfortable.
00:14:50.000Under tech is durable, fade-resistant, shrink-resistant, and ultra-lightweight.
00:14:54.000And here's the best part: they're 30% less expensive than the competition.
00:16:21.000But it's a, you know, I've been talking a lot about you, Charlie, because everyone is impressed with just the energy that you bring to the movement.
00:16:28.000And it's really inspiring because you've taken a lot of crap, shall we say, from people, and you always keep going bigger and better.
00:16:35.000So it's a great, it's a great example.
00:16:45.000But that's the message because we now know how it's clearly the haters are doing it just to try to hold people back who don't agree with them ideologically.
00:17:32.000And so let's play the tape of Bernie Sanders, Elon Omar, Ayanna Presley, Corey Bush.
00:17:37.000They're all freaking out over Joe Manchin's move.
00:17:39.000Swear words are bleeped out for the FCC play cut 10.
00:17:42.000But if he doesn't have the courage to do the right thing for the working families of West Virginia and America, let him vote no in front of the whole world.
00:17:50.000We all knew that Senator Manchin couldn't be trusted.
00:17:55.000You know, the excuses that he just made, I think, are complete.
00:18:01.000He has continued to move the goalpost.
00:18:04.000He has never negotiated in good faith.
00:18:06.000And he is obstructing the president's agenda.
00:18:09.000AJ, all I want for Christmas is a senator that has compassion for the American people and not contempt.
00:18:15.000I'm going to be looking for the phone number to the ghost of Christmas, past, present, and future, or the email address to see if they can go and see about Scrooge on Christmas Eve.
00:19:41.000Why is Biden not changing his approach or adjusting in real time?
00:19:48.000I would say the most likely answer might be incompetence, but there's something scarier that I want to offer up, which is that he doesn't see it as a failure, that the left wing, which is in charge of this administration, is trying to destroy the country and they are trying to destroy our values.
00:20:03.000And not to say they want to destroy it, like literally destroy it, destroy it, but erase America's founding, erase America's Judeo-Christian constitutional Declaration of Independence value system, e plurbusonum, in God we trust, liberty, First Amendment, Second Amendment, erase all that stuff and replace it with this sort of woke religion that we have now.
00:20:21.000And all of this stuff moves us closer in that direction, the unsustainable debt.
00:20:35.000The gas prices are going to destroy the energy sector.
00:20:39.000Us losing our standing on the world stage with regards to China and Russia and the oil crisis that we've got going.
00:20:45.000All of this moves the country away from the America that you and I believe in and love and towards this sort of command and control plutocracy where an oligarchical class controls us with their woke religion.
00:22:14.000And it is clear that they're not worrying about consistency.
00:22:18.000You know, it's interesting, Charlie, that my talk with you yesterday at your conference, I had an example that I wanted to bring up that I did want to bring up because I didn't want to jeopardize your nonprofit status.
00:22:34.000For all of you watching the stupid Treasury Department.
00:22:37.000Yeah, I know, and I try to be respectful of it.
00:22:39.000But I was thinking about how Joe Biden is now the spokesman against, he's the anti-racist spokesman, a guy who thought that busing would create a racial jungle and opposed it vigorously.
00:22:50.000A guy who called black children roaches in 2017.
00:22:54.000And this is now the guy who's a good person.
00:22:55.000These are the career enders for you and I.
00:22:57.000We wouldn't allow it to destroy a career.
00:22:59.000Charlie, I couldn't show up at a family dinner if I called black children roaches.
00:23:17.000So Biden's legislative agenda to continue the deterioration and destruction of the American dollar and to achieve really the goal of Barack Hussein Obama is really kind of being played out this year.
00:23:51.000And so the fundamental transformation of America that Obama promised in 2007 while running for president, right before he, no, 2008, I'm sorry, 2008 before becoming running for president is playing out.
00:24:35.000She's more important than Joe Manchin because she represents a bunch of foreign nationals and super angry single 32-year-old women that went to NYU.
00:24:44.000Is that not a perfect illustration of my point?
00:24:46.000She doesn't like the Electoral College.
00:24:47.000That's the attack on the Electoral College.
00:24:54.000The whole agenda is anti-federalism with the mandate, with the energy policy, with all of these things are designed to limit the role of the states in American life.
00:25:04.000So Joe Manchin is a Democrat in name only.
00:25:09.000I think he's more of like a dino at this point.
00:25:11.000And in that point, though, he is a protector of state sovereignty and states' rights.
00:25:48.000And I think this is exactly what we were talking about with Corey Bush and Ilhan Omar swearing at him.
00:25:54.000Of course, it doesn't convince him, but they're fine with that too, because I do think the AOCs and Ilhan Omars and the Corey Bushes are much more comfortable being in the victim role where they're the victim of Joe Manchin.
00:26:36.000If it was her choice, West Virginia wouldn't be part of the same country she wants to live in, which does beg a bigger and broader question, actually, about are they even representing the same country at some point, right?
00:26:48.000And I think that is, unfortunately, the thing we have to contemplate is that is West Virginia and the Bronx, at least politically speaking, is it reconcilable at this point?
00:28:45.000What I want to find out is I want when Republicans take back the House of Representatives, I want every influencer and media member that received money from the CDC to promote the vaccine.
00:28:56.000Because we don't even, we're only touching the surface of the billions of dollars that were paid to promote the vaccine.
00:29:30.000Yeah, at least, you know, from our coverage of Breitbart, it doesn't look like it.
00:29:33.000Yeah, especially in the, what was it, the 90s where that guy just vanished with all that, with like $2 trillion worth of assets, basically.
00:30:59.000So it is about investigations, and you got to start with Fauci, I think.
00:31:03.000You got to start with these deep staters who are treating American parents like terrorists.
00:31:07.000I think you have, but you got to start letting the agenda be known that there will be a massive house cleaning once the Republican wins in 2024, whoever it is.
00:31:18.000And, you know, they're going to be the frontrunner to win.
00:31:20.000Cheap by mail and big tack or is going to try to stop that.
00:31:23.000But it is, there needs to be a massive house cleaning in this country in Washington.
00:31:27.000And by the way, we need to unswampify Washington by moving these bureaucracies out of the beltway.
00:31:58.000One of the great abuses of power that we've ever seen in our country's history.
00:32:01.000Yeah, and we got how many years we have to wait for people to get held accountable.
00:32:05.000Well, the lag time is intentional, though, because then the jury isn't as animated to try to get to guilty verdicts and people kind of forget it.
00:32:12.000Meaning, like there's one thing where there's like the George Floyd thing, if they would have waited three years, I'm not as so sure they would be able, not to say the facts and circumstances would change, but it's just they want to try to draw things out.
00:32:55.000One of the things we're proud of at Turning Point USA from an educational and cultural side, down a political side, is that we've been able to make the case for nationalism and conservatism and populism, all in a positive way, because those words have negative connotations.
00:33:08.000In an aesthetically pleasing, in a magnanimous, and really kind of all-encompassing way, where people then want to be part of that, right?
00:33:16.000It's not like the conservative movement that you grew up in with charts and graphs and, you know, talking about why Nixon wasn't.
00:33:24.000You know, the thing that even though the backbone of what we do at Breitbart and on the Breitbart News Daily podcast is talk about the news, I'm always most heartened when people tell me they had a good time going to the front page or listening to the show every day because I think that that is what is going to give us longevity.
00:33:42.000Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
