00:00:31.000It was a live stream and we were going in real time, but the insight and the takeaways are very good.
00:00:37.000If you had a chance to listen to Senator Tim Scott's remarks, it'll make some of my feedback, I think, even more helpful and understandable.
00:00:47.000So email us your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:01:53.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:21.000You've rarely seen this kind of focus and commitment.
00:02:24.000Seriously, they recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their number of total happy customers in the next year.
00:02:33.000If you're struggling with back, neck, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, or even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted only $19.95, about a dollar a day to see if we can get you out of pain.
00:02:58.000We're going to cut to Senator Tim Scott as soon as he gives his response.
00:03:04.000I have a lot of takeaways from what we just saw.
00:03:06.000You guys can email us your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com and your questions.
00:03:10.000I do want to take some of your questions.
00:03:12.000And I don't make it a habit to watch, you know, President Biden, Joe Biden.
00:03:18.000It's usually just whatever is provided to him.
00:03:20.000But I wanted to see this for a reason, and I want to comment on it because it was less about him.
00:03:26.000He wasn't really involved in this speech, but the people behind him knew that there would be millions of eyeballs on this speech.
00:03:32.000And there were some really important takeaways.
00:03:35.000Not about what he was saying or his legislative action, but instead how the American left views this moment and their current playbook, what they're actually planning to do next, and what that means for our nation and our country.
00:03:52.000And Joe Biden went a little over an hour, and it didn't feel like a typical State of the Union address at all.
00:03:59.000I mean, it felt a little bit like Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars.
00:04:04.000It was almost as if he was giving a speech on war footing, that this was a general that was giving an update on the war front.
00:04:12.000And I want to explore that and build that out because this was not just a speech for unity.
00:04:18.000I did not hear that term once, by the way, the entire speech.
00:04:21.000We got to come together, that we have to work together.
00:04:24.000Now, I think Joe Biden is settling into this idea that he is on such the moral high ground, that he is General Eisenhower of the armed, of the coalition of armed forces in World War II, and he is going to win at all costs.
00:04:42.000And this is a new type of Democrat party that we are dealing with here.
00:04:47.000This is not the Democrat Party of Barack Obama that will patiently march through the institutions.
00:04:52.000This is a bold and urgent Democrat Party.
00:04:56.000And there's a lot that actually I think Republicans can learn from in this moment.
00:05:01.000And so, as we're waiting for Senator Tim Scott here, I want to say as we kind of walk through these remarks, and you guys can email us in real-time freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:05:13.000We're going to be taking a lot of your questions, which is Joe Biden opened up by saying that the attack on the Capitol on January the 6th was the worst attack on our democracy since the American Civil War.
00:05:31.000Worse than the 1983 bombing, attempted bombing on the Capitol.
00:05:36.000Worse than 9-11, worse than Pearl Harbor.
00:05:40.000But he has called explicitly that this was the worst attack on our country since the American Civil War.
00:05:49.000It's an important point because much of the substance of the speech was bookended, if you will.
00:05:58.000It was kind of, it was framed around this idea of starting on January 6th and ending on January 6th, that I am going to justify my war powers by bringing up what happened on January 6th.
00:06:12.000So we obviously did a live stream the day of January 6th here.
00:06:16.000We did not support the storming of the Capitol here.
00:06:21.000We also don't support the killing of Ashley Babbitt, and we still don't know who killed Ashley Babbitt.
00:06:27.000And Joe Biden continually says that it was an insurrection.
00:06:31.000It was more like an interruption than an insurrection.
00:06:34.000And I'm not minimalizing any of the police officers that died.
00:06:41.000And new evidence shows that they actually died on natural causes.
00:06:45.000And if anyone laid a hand on a law enforcement officer, I hope they go to jail.
00:06:51.000But to then add this as the context of the entire speech, the worst attack since the Civil War, and then he ends with that, I think is a very important takeaway.
00:07:03.000So I'm going to have a little bit of a different take than most pundits and commentators and talk show hosts.
00:07:10.000I think that Joe Biden was telling the truth when he said that we are on the move.
00:07:17.000Now, I don't think he was saying the nation was on the move.
00:07:20.000I think he's saying the Democrat Party is on the move.
00:07:23.000You see, Joe Biden has decided to say the private part out loud.
00:07:28.000Joe Biden decided to say the part that they used to hide and disguise.
00:07:35.000We're playing offense as Democrats, and we're not going to apologize for it.
00:07:41.000Joe Biden, again, he's just the spokesperson, the temporary spokesperson for this.
00:07:47.000But He is the current placeholder of a belief in the Democrat Party that the reason that they have not been able to get their transformational agenda forward is that they have not treated us like domestic enemies, that they've tried to pander to us too much.
00:08:27.000Have you ever heard of a politician frame a political moment is on the move?
00:08:34.000Again, that feels like he's trying to conquer Europe.
00:08:38.000Now, I'm not saying that there hasn't been a Republican that has used that similar language, but there was almost a refrain with the dystopian imagery of the two mask wearers behind him.
00:08:51.000Every other seat, despite almost everyone being already vaccinated and wearing masks.
00:08:57.000It was almost this footing of the real threat here as we are in our militarized capital, surrounded by armed guards.
00:09:07.000The real threat is the people that we displaced from power, the people who didn't vote from us.
00:09:15.000That was the constant theme throughout the speech.
00:09:20.000Now, there are actually some things that I think Republicans can learn from.
00:09:23.000Some things that I think Joe Biden was very wise to mention, but then he completely invalidated many of those things later in his speech.
00:09:32.000But when you say on the move, it feels like it was George W. Bush giving remarks in front of Congress when he was trying to find Saddam Hussein on the move.
00:09:41.000Now, maybe the best way you could say is, well, Charlie, he meant that we are economically developing and investing and we're doing a lot better.
00:09:51.000Or maybe he's saying what we know is true, which is that the Democrat Party is going to metaphorically roll the tanks through the streets until they're in power permanently.
00:10:07.000That's what I hear when I say that Democrats are on the move.
00:10:10.000So there's a lot of specifics here I want to get into, from how he described the vaccine to the difference to the non-mention of the administration that came before him to this very bizarre line where he says that we need to get vaccine on Mars because then we get better internet.
00:10:31.000Maybe he was just misreading his teleprompter.
00:10:35.000But I'm going to reiterate something that I've said before.
00:10:49.000Any human being that inherits a vaccination effort like Joe Biden did, and he did not mention once a thank you, a sentence, or a syllable for the Herculean effort that the Trump administration did before the Biden administration when it came to personal protection equipment and vaccines.
00:11:09.000And by the way, I am not personally going to take the vaccine.
00:11:16.000Consult people you trust and read literature that you find true and make that decision.
00:11:23.000But Joe Biden is taking this victory lap saying, hey, you know, on January 20th, vaccination rates for seniors were less than 2%.
00:11:30.000Hey, Joe Biden, you know, you got vaccinated when Trump was president?
00:11:34.000Joe Biden, you got vaccinated when Trump was president.
00:11:37.000And he said, you know, when I got to be president, we had no vaccines.
00:11:40.000Now, good news for Joe Biden, the Washington Post has completely disbanded its fact-checking mechanism.
00:11:46.000So we'll not, there will be no fact-checking tomorrow morning in the Washington Post.
00:11:50.000Who needs fact-checking when you enter a one-party state?
00:11:53.000The Ministry of Truth will only go after the opposition.
00:11:58.000And so, Joe Biden is taking a celebratory victory lap for something that Donald Trump deserves credit for.
00:12:04.000Now, again, whether you think the vaccine works or not is actually completely irrelevant to what I'm about to say.
00:12:10.000So, Donald Trump sat in a room with the experts and they said, Mr. Trump, President Trump, you have to pick one of these companies, Johnson Johnson, Pfizer, Moderna, of who's going to get this vaccine effort out.
00:14:05.000But our nation is starving for more than empty platitudes.
00:14:09.000We need policies and progress that brings us closer together.
00:14:14.000But three months in, the actions of the president and his party are pulling us further and further apart.
00:14:21.000I won't waste your time with finger-pointing or partisan victory.
00:14:24.000You can get that on TV anytime you want.
00:14:27.000I want to have an honest conversation about common sense and common ground, about this feeling that our nation is sliding off its shared foundation and how we move forward together.
00:14:39.000Growing up, I never dreamed I would be standing here tonight.
00:14:43.000When I was a kid, my parents divorced.
00:14:46.000My mother, my brother, and I moved in with my grandparents, three of us, sharing one bedroom.
00:14:53.000I was disillusioned and angry, and I nearly failed out of school.
00:15:02.000And let me say this: to the single mothers out there who are working their tails off, working hard, trying to make the ends meet, wondering if it's worth it, you can bet it is.
00:15:15.000God bless your amazing effort on the part of your kids.
00:15:20.000I was also blessed by a Chick-fil-A operator, John Lenis.
00:15:25.000And finally, with a string of opportunities that are only possible here in America.
00:15:31.000This past year, I've watched COVID attack every rung of the ladder that helped me up.
00:15:37.000So many families have lost parents and grandparents too early.
00:15:42.000So many small businesses have gone under.
00:15:45.000Becoming a Christian transformed my life, but for months, too many churches were shut down.
00:15:52.000Most of all, I'm saddened that millions of kids have lost a year of learning when they could not afford to lose a single day.
00:16:02.000Locking vulnerable kids out of the classroom is locking adults out of their future.
00:16:09.000Our public schools should have reopened months ago.
00:17:55.000But again, Democrats want a partisan wish list.
00:17:59.000They won't even build bridges to build bridges.
00:18:03.000Less than 6% of the president's plan goes to roads and bridges.
00:18:08.000It's a liberal wish list of big government waste, plus the biggest job-killing tax hikes in a generation.
00:18:17.000Experts say when all is said and done, it would lower wages of the average American worker and shrink our economy.
00:18:27.000Tonight, we also heard about a so-called family plan, even more taxing, even more spending to put Washington even more in the middle of your life from the cradle to college.
00:18:42.000The beauty of the American dream is that families get to define it for themselves.
00:18:48.000We should be expanding opportunities and options for all families, not throwing money at certain issues because Democrats think they know best.
00:18:58.000Infrastructure spending that shrinks our economy is not common sense.
00:19:04.000Weakening our southern borders and creating a crisis is not compassionate.
00:19:09.000The president is also abandoning principles he's held for decades.
00:19:13.000Now he says your tax dollars should fund abortions.
00:19:18.000He's laying groundwork to pack the Supreme Court.
00:19:27.000Nowhere do we need common ground more desperately than in our discussions of race.
00:19:35.000I have experienced the pain of discrimination.
00:19:38.000I know what it feels like to be pulled over for no reason, to be followed around the store while I'm shopping.
00:19:46.000I remember every morning at the kitchen table, my grandfather would open the newspaper and read it, I thought.
00:19:54.000But later I realized he had never learned to read it.
00:19:57.000He just wanted to set the right example.
00:20:00.000I've also experienced a different kind of intolerance.
00:20:03.000I get called Uncle Tom and the N-word by progressives, by liberals.
00:20:08.000Just last week, a national newspaper suggested my family's poverty was actually privilege because a relative owned land generations before my time.
00:20:21.000Believe me, I know firsthand our healing is not finished.
00:20:27.000In 2015, after the shooting of Walter Scott, I wrote a bill to fund body cameras.
00:20:33.000Last year, after the deaths of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd, I built an even bigger police reform proposal.
00:20:41.000But my Democratic colleagues blocked it.
00:21:00.000I'm hopeful that this will be different.
00:21:03.000When America comes together, we've made tremendous progress, but powerful forces want to pull us apart.
00:21:10.000A hundred years ago, kids in classrooms were taught the color of their skin was their most important characteristic.
00:21:18.000And if they looked a certain way, they were inferior.
00:21:22.000Today, kids are being taught that the color of their skin defines them again.
00:21:28.000And if they look a certain way, they're an oppressor.
00:21:31.000From colleges to corporations to our culture, people are making money and gaining power by pretending we haven't made any progress at all, by doubling down on the divisions we've worked so hard to heal.
00:22:34.000But today, this conversation has collapsed.
00:22:38.000The state of Georgia passed a law that expands early voting, preserves no excuse mail-in voting, and despite what the president claimed, did not reduce election day hours.
00:22:51.000If you actually read this law, it's mainstream.
00:22:56.000It will be easier to vote early in Georgia than in Democrat-run New York.
00:23:02.000But the left doesn't want you to know that.
00:23:04.000They want people virtue signaling by yelling about a law they haven't even read.
00:23:10.000Fact checkers have called out the White House for misstatements.
00:23:14.000The president absurdly claims that this is worse than Jim Crow.
00:23:22.000I'll tell you, a Washington power grab.
00:23:26.000This misplaced outrage is supposed to justify Democrats' new sweeping bill that would take over elections for all 50 states.
00:23:36.000It would send public funds to political campaigns you disagree with and make the bipartisan Federal Elections Commission partisan.
00:23:45.000This is not about civil rights or our racial past.
00:23:49.000It's about rigging elections in the future.
00:23:53.000And no, the same filibuster that President Obama and President Biden praised when they were senators, the same filibuster that the Democrats used to kill my police reform bill last year has not suddenly become a racist relic just because the shoe is now on the other foot.
00:24:12.000Race is not a political weapon to settle every issue the way one side wants.
00:24:32.000Thanks to Operation Warp Speed and the Trump administration, our country is flooded with safe and effective vaccines.
00:24:40.000Thanks to our bipartisan work last year, job openings are rebounding.
00:24:44.000So why do we feel so divided, anxious?
00:24:50.000A nation with so much cause for hope should not feel so heavy laden.
00:24:57.000A president who promised to bring us together should not be pushing agendas that tear us apart.
00:25:06.000The American family deserves better, and we know what better looks like.
00:25:11.000Just before COVID, we had the most inclusive economy in my lifetime, the lowest unemployment rate ever recorded for African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians, and a 70-year low nearly for women.
00:25:25.000Wages were, hear me, wages were growing faster at the bottom than at the top.
00:25:32.000The bottom 25% saw their wages go up faster than the top 25%.
00:25:37.000That happened because Republicans focused on expanding opportunity for all Americans.
00:25:44.000In addition to that, we passed opportunity zones, criminal justice reform, and permanent funding for historically black colleges and universities for the first time ever.
00:25:56.000We fought the drug epidemic, rebuilt our military, and cut taxes for working families and single moms like the one that raised me.
00:26:04.000Our best future will not come from Washington schemes or socialist dreams.
00:26:09.000It will come from you, the American people, black, Hispanic, white, and Asian, Republican and Democrat, brave police officers in black neighborhoods.
00:27:03.000I am standing here because my mom has prayed me through some really tough times.
00:27:10.000I believe our nation has succeeded the same way because generations of Americans in their own ways have asked for grace and God has supplied it.
00:27:21.000So I will close with a word from a worship song that really helped me through this past year of COVID.
00:27:28.000The music is new, but the words draw from scripture.
00:28:15.000Incognito mode, like the Chrome browser itself is a Google product and Google has made its fortune by tracking your movements online.
00:28:21.000There's even a $5 billion class action lawsuit against the company in California where it's accused of secretly collecting user data.
00:28:28.000Google's defense, incognito does not mean invisible.
00:28:30.000So how do you actually make yourself as invisible as possible online, ExpressVPN?
00:28:35.000Turns out that even in incognito mode, your online activity still gets tracked.
00:28:39.000And data brokers still get to buy and sell your data.
00:28:42.000One of these data points is in your IP address.
00:28:44.000Data harvesters use your IP to uniquely identify you and your location, but with ExpressVPN, your connection gets rerouted through an encrypted server and your IP address is masked.
00:28:53.000Every time you connect to ExpressVPN, you get a random IP address shared by other ExpressVPN customers that makes it harder for third parties to identify you or harvest your data.
00:29:01.000Best of all, ExpressVPN is super easy to use, no matter what device you're on, phone, laptop, or smart TV.
00:29:06.000All you have to do is tap one button for instant protection.
00:29:09.000So if you really want to go incognito and protect your privacy, secure yourself with the number one rated VPN.
00:31:36.000Anyone else notice that he did not mention the very serious question?
00:31:40.000All he would have to say to satisfy me, and we're going to find where this virus came from, and we're going to make them pay.
00:31:45.000This is an epidemiological Pearl Harbor.
00:31:47.000You want to know an attack on our country, Joe Biden?
00:31:51.000It wasn't the guy from MASH and the zip tie guy and the Chewbacca shaman man, the JV squad, of which we've done plenty of denunciations of.
00:32:02.000Instead, you want to know an attack on our nation?
00:32:05.000How about China launching an epidemiological, maybe launching, maybe releasing, maybe it was a mistake, maybe it came from a bat wet market.
00:32:13.000We all know where it really came from, but I'm saying allegedly.
00:32:17.000And yet Joe Biden does not say once, I owe it to you Americans whose son is not in school or daughter is not in school, that we're going to get to the bottom of this.
00:32:25.000And Senator Tim Scott, why did you not mention that?
00:32:28.000Senator Tim Scott, why didn't you say, Joe Biden, how dare you not bring up the fact that this virus came from China?
00:32:36.000That dislocated all of our lives, that displaced our well-being, that killed our family members, that killed our friends.
00:32:42.000And we're talking about common ground and common sense.
00:32:45.000You have a guy who's bragging that he's in the sisterhood of the traveling pants with Xi Ji Ping, going around on an intercontinental tour with him.
00:32:55.000You know, I've spent a lot of time with him, and he's really earnest.
00:33:00.000We're going to get to that in a second.
00:33:02.000No mention of where the virus came from.
00:33:04.000I'm going to talk about two things that I think, one thing that I think Biden did well, and one thing I think Republicans can learn on.
00:33:11.000And some of this is, again, some of this is a little bit choppy because I'm doing this on the fly.
00:33:15.000So I apologize as I'm giving this, but it's really important because it's going to tell you where we're headed as a nation and where we're headed politically.
00:33:23.000Biden talking about self-sufficiency was the strongest part of his speech.
00:33:28.000Now, if Republicans were smart, which they aren't, Republicans would introduce their own self-sufficiency bill and they'd say, hey, Joe Biden, we'd be happy to invest a bunch of money in making vitamin C in our country, making penicillin and making textiles, but we're going to bring no new people into America until we reach full employment.
00:33:45.000And every single college graduate that has debt in America has a high-paying job that can pay off their debt.
00:33:51.000Instead, we're now going to pander to this open borders fictitious dream of corporate America so the Democrats can bring in more obedient voters.
00:34:24.000But instead, millions of people at Tune In tonight think that Joe Biden is now going to be the ambassador of America First Economics.
00:34:34.000That Joe Biden is the one that said, and a very powerful part of his speech was, Joe Biden said that he wants, I don't know, what was it, wind panels or something ridiculous made in solar panels, wind turbines, yeah, so we can kill our bird population.
00:34:50.000We should make them in Pittsburgh and not in Wuhan or Beijing.
00:35:00.000America First and America First Economics is a very popular position.
00:35:06.000Donald Trump, obviously, was the one that pioneered this.
00:35:10.000Joe Biden is picking one part that he thinks he can use as temporary disguise and camouflage to pander to Midwestern voters without actually delivering anything to them.
00:35:21.000So Joe Biden says that the environment is all about jobs.
00:35:25.000Joe Biden, did you plan on apologizing to the 11,000 workers you displaced when you got rid of the Keystone XL pipeline?
00:35:33.00011,000 families that are no longer able to enjoy an upper middle class lifestyle because of you.
00:35:42.000Joe Biden, the job terminator, not one mention of that at all whatsoever.
00:35:47.000But he does think that raising the minimum wage to $15, which would be a tax on black and Hispanic workers and small businesses across the country, he believes that this is something that is worth fighting for.
00:37:24.000That we need a stormtrooper force after Emperor Palpatine talks about he just executed Order 66.
00:37:30.000If you know what I'm talking about, email me, freedom at charliekirk.com for all you Star Wars fans out there.
00:37:34.000So it was a war footing, and Joe Biden was overseeing a fundamental shift of the American nation, whether you realized that or not.
00:37:42.000What seemed and felt like at times of a legislative pitch, he was really trying to change the paradigm in the Overton window, saying, we are now in charge.
00:37:54.000Now, Bill Clinton famously said in one of his State of the Union addresses that the era of big government is over.
00:38:03.000Some people are tweeting and they say, well, the era of big government is back.
00:38:06.000And at Turning Point USA, we literally say big government sucks.
00:38:11.000I don't really think that's what Joe Biden was saying, though.
00:38:16.000What I think he was saying is something much closer to what Julius Caesar would have said.
00:40:03.000They're an enemy of Western civilization.
00:40:06.000But Biden very well might be compromised by China, calls him an earnest leader.
00:40:12.000This was a philosophical shift that was disguised as a legislative pitch.
00:40:19.000These massive government proposals, they're so big it makes your head spin.
00:40:24.000These are wire transfers to the wealthiest people and companies in the world.
00:40:29.000Now, Joe Biden went out of his way saying that the wealthiest people need to pay more in taxes.
00:40:34.000Obviously, by doing so, we're going to inflate the currency that will make wealthier people even richer because they can buy hard assets and assets of which you can adjust the rates of which you collect income.
00:40:46.000And part of what I think is kind of ironic, and I don't feel sorry for them, is that the 1% that voted for Joe Biden might actually have their taxes raised on them.
00:41:00.000The 1% that financed Joe Biden's campaign very well might have to pay more taxes.
00:41:39.000We're already deficit spending $7 trillion a year.
00:41:42.000And Jake and I were talking yesterday, I think that's Jake back there.
00:41:45.000That the debt right now is a national security issue.
00:41:48.000It's an intentional dollar-diminishing scheme.
00:41:52.000And for Republicans just to, and Senator Tim Scott, again, nice guy, comes out and is like, well, you know, Congress, we passed five bills.
00:41:59.000It's not the role of government to get involved in giving people stimulus payments, bragging about how we've now indebted future generations.
00:42:11.000I don't care if 94 senators voted for it.
00:43:09.000By an act of Congress, we will subsidize and penalize if vitamin C, penicillin, Advil, Tylenol, PPE, pharmaceutical development, steel, automobiles are not made in America.
00:43:30.000Let Joe Biden get in a fight with his donors of whether or not he wants to raise taxes.
00:43:37.000Did you hear one thing from Senator Tim Scott about fighting or challenging the corporate oligarchy?
00:43:46.000It is probably the number one concern amongst Republican voters that we have a second government in our country that arguably has more power than the federal government.
00:43:57.000Amazon, Twitter, Facebook, Google are creepily micromanaging the decisions of our country, our countrymen, and our nation.
00:44:32.000When you see America's just an idea, and I've said I've been incomplete enough in my past to say that when I really meant that America is an exceptional place where we are going to have families, that we are going to pass down these values generation to generation, that this is not a colony, Joe Biden, where we temporarily make as much money and we could destroy it and leave.
00:46:32.000The Republican Party should say, you know what?
00:46:34.000We agree at Joe Biden that Jeff Bezos has too much money and he got it by destroying small business.
00:46:40.000That's why the Republican Party is going to introduce the Jeff Bezos Act to say that anyone that has more than $100 billion in America should then have to either give the money to charity or should have to be part of some sort of patriotic pledge that they're going to invest in American workers.
00:49:12.000Wouldn't it be nice if Senator Tim Scott would have explained what a republic is?
00:49:16.000Wouldn't it have been nice to Senator Tim Scott said, you know, a democracy is where the loudest voice and the most people in the streets get what they want.
00:49:23.000A republic is where there are rules for the road enshrined from natural rights given to us by God, where a slow, decentralized, state-based local process is given preference, and you must have a good idea of a long period of time to revolutionize this country.
00:50:46.000A guy without a father who's raised by his uncle in a less than opportune place under the stairs in the Shire on Tatooine, in a place of innocence, I should say, goes on a journey to go save the innocent around a team that compliments him, faces a challenge that's external, realizes the true challenge is actually inside themselves, the force, the ring, and of course, Voldemort inside of him.
00:51:54.000And while Palpatine is giving the speech, he has an entire enforcement arm, also known as Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker, who's killing the Jedi.
00:52:05.000Basically, he's saying how wonderful and peaceful things are while his enforcement arm is doing his dirty work while he's giving the Senate.
00:52:44.000In order to ensure the security and continuing spirit, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Guyana ticket and empire for a safety and sickness.
00:53:16.000So this is how liberty dies with thunderous applause.
00:53:22.000So this is how liberty dies to thunderous applause.
00:53:28.000And it's hard to hear Palpatine, who, by the way, looks just like Joe Biden.
00:54:21.000So in closing here, this was Joe Biden on war footing.
00:54:27.000Felt like a general getting an update on the war effort.
00:54:30.000And I wanted Tim Scott to punch back, not sue for peace.
00:54:36.000They are not going to stop everybody until there is a counteroffensive against them, political, peaceful, counter-offensive, where they know there's a price to these ideas.
00:54:55.000This is about turning us into California, where there's a one-party state and you sit down and obey, and the Republicans are annoying in their ear.
00:55:02.000What they did to Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, it's coming to a state near you all across the country.
00:55:08.000They think Republicans are an annoyance.
00:55:12.000Did Joe Biden do one gesture of unity?
00:55:21.000What Tim Scott should say, I'm calling on the Attorney General of South Carolina, my friend, to go investigate the tech companies because it seems as you'd like them, Joe Biden.
00:55:30.000Whatever power we have at our disposal, we need to start using because they're unafraid to use theirs.
00:55:38.000And this is where the base is, everybody.
00:55:40.000The base of the Republican Party is growing impatient of the same corporate talking point platitudes, the same bumper stickers over and over again.
00:56:12.000What are you talking about, original sin?
00:56:15.000You're talking about how Thomas Jefferson in the original draft of the Declaration of Independence called slavery an unspeakable sin and blame King George for it.
00:56:22.000Do you mean the original sin of Vermont abolishing slavery in 1777?
00:56:26.000Senator Tim Scott, I'd love to get your opinion on the Northwest Territories.
00:56:29.000Northwest Territories, the first new sovereign piece of land put in front of Congress.
00:56:35.000And George Washington as president signed into law approved by Congress that it will be a free area, territory, not slave.
00:56:46.000Is the original sin the fact the founders knew slavery was wrong and they're working to untangle it and get rid of it?
00:56:51.000And it wasn't until the opportunistic political gallivaning of Southern Democrat John C. Calhoun that slavery even made a slight revival in our country?
00:57:01.000What sort of original sin are you talking about?
00:57:03.000Of John Quincy Adams, who went back as a public servant to go abolish slavery in the U.S. Congress?
00:57:11.000Or John Adams, who said that the Constitution is made holy for a religious and moral people.
00:57:19.000Or Thomas Jefferson, who signed a new importation ban of slaves into the United States 20 years after the ratification of the U.S. Constitution?
00:57:28.000Every other country had the original sin of slavery.
00:57:31.000We're the only ones who founders actually dealt with getting rid of it and gave us an ideal in this, the greatest political document ever written to get rid of it.
00:57:41.000I don't understand this constant pandering.
00:58:55.000Since Martha McSally lost both races, maybe if you were a senator and you were there to make these speeches for us on these issues would be addressed, and you're not allowed to Democrats stay with murder.
