00:00:02.000Kind of an impromptu conversation with Steve Moore.
00:00:04.000Then we talk about the Biden administration's lack of business expertise and inflation.
00:00:09.000We also talked to Jason Miller from Getter about what's going on online and how TikTok is like giving your child heroin.
00:00:15.000So if you don't want your child to be on heroin, then don't have them have TikTok.
00:00:20.000I talk about it a little bit on this program, but I have done a deep amount of study and research, and there's a growing body of literature that shows the main reason why your kid or grandkid is anxious, depressed, doing marijuana, might not be feeling the way that they should.
00:01:18.000His 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.
00:01:26.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:15.000I know this isn't the subject of our conversation, but it's really important.
00:02:18.000It showed that he has given hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars to the museums, the orchestra, to food banks.
00:02:26.000He's one of the most philanthropic guys.
00:02:29.000And he's, I don't think anybody in the history of Illinois has given more to the civic institutions of Chicago.
00:02:35.000And he finally had to leave because of the high taxes and the high crime rate in the city of Chicago.
00:02:41.000And it just shows what happens when liberals ruin a place because all these institutions are like, how are we going to replace Ken Griffin's money?
00:04:03.000And the violent crime thing is just totally out of control.
00:04:05.000And a question people have, and Steve, maybe you could add some context to this is why don't they course correct?
00:04:11.000I mean, it's so obvious Chicago's become a wasteland.
00:04:14.000I saw, I mean, I was just in Chicago yesterday, and I just picked up a mailer at somebody's house I was at of just all the real estate listings.
00:04:21.000And I was shocked at how cheap real estate is in some of these communities versus what I'm used to kind of seeing here in Phoenix or in Florida.
00:04:31.000It's obvious property values are down, violent crime is up, the population is decreasing.
00:04:36.000Is it just kind of one of the things Lori Lightfoot and J.B. Pritzker want to rule over the ashes?
00:04:40.000What's your interpretation of someone who loves the state of Illinois like I do?
00:04:43.000First of all, Charlie, I mean, it breaks my heart because I think of Chicago as one of the 10 greatest cities in the world.
00:05:16.000I mean, so it's just, it's almost comical that the two leading Democrats for the presidency in 2024 right now are Gavin Newsom, who's destroying California and J.B. Pritzker, who's destroyed Illinois.
00:05:30.000And that shows you how short their bench is.
00:05:32.000And I'll just end this little conversation about this by saying, folks, guess what state that Ken Griffin moved to?
00:08:29.000And so you have people with no idea what they're doing.
00:08:32.000The majority of the people that Biden has appointed to positions of power that have authority over our economy, finance, commerce, transportation, those kinds of things that have to work, the majority of them, Charlie, have zero business experience.
00:08:49.000And I'm not saying that they have zero experience running a business.
00:08:53.000I'm saying they haven't even worked for a business.
00:08:56.000I mean, these people can't run a lemonade stand because they've never even worked for a lemonade stand.
00:09:28.000So they're big on administrative state and managerialism.
00:09:32.000It is this emphasis on the managerial and unelected bureaucratic elite.
00:09:38.000So a lot of academics, a lot of people that have just kind of been lifelong bureaucrats, and 62% that have never even been in a business setting, let alone run a business.
00:09:47.000But let me give you a good example of what I'm talking about.
00:09:49.000So you may know, I've heard of this woman, Lena Khan.
00:11:15.000Look, I'm really worried, Charlie, about the world economy right now.
00:11:19.000We are the hub of the world economy and every other country is a spoke.
00:11:24.000And when America gets it wrong, as we did in the 70s under Nixon, Ford, and Carter, and as we're getting it wrong now, unfortunately, we spread these bad policies throughout the world.
00:11:34.000When Reagan was president, guess what?
00:11:36.000The whole world moved towards freedom.
00:11:38.000And that's what's so frightening to me is that we have big government socialism spreading all over the world right now.
00:11:44.000And Charlie, where are the Margaret Thatchers?
00:12:30.000Last year, about this time, there were 20 Nobel Prize economists and about 30 other leading economists at American universities who said in a big piece in the New York Times, don't worry, Biden's policies will not cause inflation.
00:12:46.000Don't you think maybe they should just retire or give up their PhDs?
00:12:51.000I mean, it's just there's been no, and what's been amazing, though, Steve, and it's just more temperamental kind of more observational about their temperament is that we've never received an apology on any of this.
00:13:54.000I mean, this idea that on the supply side, we should do nothing and just completely artificially create monetary stimulus on the demand side.
00:14:15.000And what's so tragic, Steve, is that we would be the envy of the world because not only would it be amazing, all these other countries would be a mess, and now we're a mess with these other countries.
00:14:34.000Look, there's a must-see movie you got to check out at SalemNow.com called Michelle Obama 2024: Her Real Life Story and Her Plans for Power.
00:14:44.000Film director Joel Gilbert, I know Joel, great American, takes a deep dive into the life of Michelle Obama from Chicago to Princeton to Martha's Vineyard.
00:14:52.000He says Michelle Obama will run for president in 2024 and base her candidacy on a life story that is more racially divisive and nearly as fictitious as that of her husband, Barack Hussein.
00:15:03.000Check out the stunning new movie on Salem Now, Michelle Obama 2024.
00:15:07.000Michelle is following the same formula as Barack to become president, a best-selling autobiography, the keynote convention speaker, and a voter registration organization.
00:15:16.000First, Barack and now Michelle want to transform America.
00:15:20.000Michelle Obama, 2024, now playing at SalemNow.com.
00:15:24.000This new movie has stunning, game-changing revelations about Michelle Obama's past.
00:15:28.000The film director says only the truth can stop her.
00:15:31.000Michelle Obama 2024, watch the movie on demand or buy the DVD on salemnow.com.
00:15:40.000With us right now is the man behind Getter, Jason Miller.
00:16:09.000Yeah, so even though Twitter obviously is a competitor and it would hurt if Elon Musk took over, what Elon Musk was trying to do with Twitter was the right move for free speech.
00:16:18.000He was trying to get some sense of normalcy back to the blue bird, try to get some kind of control back for our voices.
00:16:24.000But what he found, what he ran into, was this brick wall of liberal ideology where he realized the culture of that company was not going to change, even if he was in charge.
00:16:34.000So now this thing looks like it's going to explode.
00:16:36.000You have Musk, you have Twitter, they're fighting each other.
00:16:39.000I don't know who's going to win on the legal side, but there is the big question of what's actually going to be left.
00:16:44.000I mean, it's essentially a pile of rubble at this point.
00:16:48.000And just how many bots and trolls they have at Twitter, it's just, it's just extraordinary.
00:16:53.000So, Jason, I want to ask you, you know, there's some questions that a lot of our audience has about kind of the state of social media online and kind of conversation online and social media in general.
00:17:07.000A question that I have for you is: how is Getter navigating this from your perspective?
00:17:12.000You guys have been up and running for quite a while, you know, very well respected, lots of users.
00:17:18.000How are you navigating this discourse going into the midterms and especially with kind of the regime of social media starting to fall apart?
00:17:27.000Yeah, great question because what we're seeing are really two separate conversations that are happening on social media.
00:17:33.000You have the traditional, the timelines, the scrolls.
00:17:38.000You have that, say, on the Twitters, the Facebooks.
00:17:40.000Obviously, the more you go into Twitter and Facebook, the more heavily politically discriminatory they are and certain viewpoints aren't being shared.
00:17:47.000But you also have with a lot of the younger folks, people you're working with at Turning Point USA and the other efforts that you do that are much more into the TikToks, the Instagram reels, the short video format.
00:17:57.000That's why we launched Vision, which is now our competitor to TikTok and Instagram Reels.
00:18:04.000And you've been great posting on there as well.
00:18:06.000So we've brought those conversations together.
00:18:08.000This is the key because you look to the younger generation, they're moving much more to this format.
00:18:13.000And so if we want to be able to connect with them as people putting on my political hat for a moment, we're going to have to talk to them in that manner and not just on the timelines.
00:18:22.000So you did a segment recently about TikTok, and I'm very blunt about TikTok.
00:18:26.000I tell young people all the time, if you want to be depressed and hate yourself, be super anxious and get on psychiatric drugs, then use TikTok.
00:18:34.000The only thing that you'll get out of TikTok is depression, is dopamine overdose, dopamine deficiency, neurological disorders, literally.
00:18:42.000TikTok is one of the most dangerous applications, I think, for a young mind that I could possibly think of.
00:18:49.000For parents out there, if your child is using TikTok, if you want your child to be depressed, then have them use it.
00:18:55.000Let me tell you really quick before Jason, I have you chime in on this.
00:18:58.000The reason is that we have 5,000 year old circuitry that was meant to be in the wild, that was meant to go hunt and gather and literally chase our prey to the point of exhaustion.
00:19:12.000There is more pleasure released in a five to 10 minute spurt when a child is going through TikTok than our ancestors would have got in 20 years.
00:19:24.000And we put that, it is the largest open-air drug experiment in the history of humanity.
00:19:30.000And we just give these kids these phones and we hope it works out.
00:19:33.000You say that TikTok wants a psychographic analysis of our kids.
00:19:54.000Now, you have TikTok, you have their parent company, ByteDance, which is effectively run by the CCP.
00:20:00.000Anyone who's doing business, any Chinese company that's in operations, the way that they've put in their surveillance requirements, the CCP has access to everything.
00:20:10.000We know from BuzzFeed that TikTok people, the moderators, the executives in China can access Americans' data.
00:20:18.000So now you have the CCP, you have the Chinese Communist Party that's actually the ones who have access to the data.
00:20:25.000They're going to know with this next generation, the TikTok generation in America, what our people are going to like before they even go and like it.
00:20:32.000That's scary when you think about the way it can be manipulated.
00:20:44.000So it's no correlation, by the way, that we have the most depressed, suicidal generation because the circuitry, I believe, designed by God was not meant to stare at a screen all day long.
00:20:56.000It's not meant to flip through and have instant pain and pleasure reactions.
00:21:01.000And I say this, you know, it kind of gets kids' eyes wide open.
00:21:05.000I say, here's how you can know you're a lab rat.
00:21:08.000For example, if you open up Twitter or if you open up Instagram or if you open up TikTok, for example, there's a short pause before you've probably seen this, right, Jason, when you go on some of these apps.
00:21:18.000So it's like a two and a half second pause.
00:21:20.000For example, you open up Instagram and it just says the logo and then you go in.
00:21:25.000Well, it's neurologically proven through the testing of your seven, eight, and nine-year-olds that two and a half delay spikes up your dopamine.
00:21:36.000This is treating our children as if they are products.
00:21:42.000And most parents have no idea what's happening.
00:21:44.000Let's talk about the CCP angle, though, that you mentioned, which is Donald Trump tried to ban TikTok.
00:21:50.000Why is this even allowed in our country?
00:21:51.000Why have we not totally shut this down?
00:21:53.000Why are lawmakers more worried about sending money to Ukraine?
00:21:57.000Because too many lawmakers are scared about upsetting what they believe parents want, which is to essentially stick devices in front of their kids and say veg out for hours at a time.
00:22:07.000And they don't want to upset who they view or the soccer moms or the swing voters in many of these districts.
00:22:13.000Fortunately, we do have some strong leadership that's out there, whether it be FCC, Commissioner Brendan Carr, even Mark Warner, the Democrat from Virginia, Marco Rubio, of course, the senator from Florida.
00:22:24.000They've taken action and saying, wait a minute, guys, we're concerned about what's happening with the data here and the fact that a foreign entity is now going to be accessing all the essentially the psychographic analyses of millions and millions of Americans, but everyone's turning a blind eye.
00:22:49.000So if your child is doing heroin, do we say, oh, yeah, you know, I'm really worried that we're going to offend meth addicts because we're going to run against fentanyl and methamphetamines.
00:22:59.000No, we have no idea what we're dealing with on a fundamental and neurological level.
00:23:04.000So, Jason, in closing here, tell us just some plans that you have for Getter.
00:23:15.000We think that we're rising above the path with the way that we've combined Getter to make it essentially the all-in-one free speech platform with the timeline, with the short video format, with live streaming, which you live stream your show, as does Real America's Voice, which we're very glad to be partners with.
00:23:30.000And we're putting this together, but as we start building out, we're really focusing on how we build the community.
00:23:36.000Different things, whether it's having a polling feature, whether it's having a meetup feature, different groups in communities, really start build that up so people can actually get together in person.
00:23:46.000People still do that, even in this online or this metaverse world.
00:23:50.000People get together in person and activities, and especially we have a big campus push that's going to be coming up this fall to start getting some of our young people on the platform, which will be great.
00:24:00.000You got to be at least 16 to have a Getter account.
00:24:02.000So we do draw a different line than say TikTok and some of the other platforms.
00:24:06.000But we definitely want to get our college students on the platform and active.
00:24:36.000You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
00:24:38.000They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
00:24:45.000So here's the deal: if you're struggling with back pain, neck pain, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted, only $19.95.
00:27:22.000So it's a very important distinction to understand this: is that if you are transgender, you're suffering under a mental condition called gender dysphoria.
00:27:31.000You're suffering under a delusion that is disconnected from reality.
00:27:37.000Therefore, you're more likely to have other potential mental issues and mental problems, such as self-harm, suicidal ideation.
00:27:46.000And so, what she is trying to say is: well, transgender people are commit suicide because of all of you.
00:27:54.000Not every single person who tries to commit suicide is obviously a transgender person, but people that are suffering under that delusion, suffering under that issue, have a much higher likelihood, regardless of how they're treated by other people, of wanting to harm themselves.
00:28:11.000I say that with compassion, but she is now trying to loop in a senator from Missouri on how kind of questions he's asking because young people that are dealing with something very serious is somehow his fault.

00:28:44.000We've had uniquely American common sense since 1776, but now we're in the age of common nonsense.
00:28:50.000Today's nonsense comes from the big corporations fighting the Supreme Court.
00:28:54.000They can't accept the conservatives have won three huge victories.
00:28:58.000So they're trying to overpower the court's legitimate decisions, and they're using your hard-earned dollars to fund it.
00:29:05.000On Life, the court finally overturned Roe versus Wade.
00:29:08.000So some companies are paying for employees to travel to states where they can get an abortion.
00:29:13.000It's the usual suspects like Target, Starbucks, and Dick Sporting Goods, but also others like Macy's, Netflix, and Airbnb.
00:29:21.000On the Second Amendment, the court clarified that we have a constitutional right to carry a firearm.
00:29:26.000So 200 CEOs signed a letter demanding gun control.
00:29:29.000It's just common sense that you have the right to carry a firearm everywhere.
00:29:33.000But woke liberals don't want you to be able to protect yourself.
00:29:37.000On Religious Liberty, the court ruled that, of course, a high school football coach has the right to pray after games.
00:29:43.000So woke CEOs promised to further remove religion from our lives.
00:29:47.000HR policies will stop employees from celebrating their faith at work.
00:29:51.000And big tech will continue to censor and silence Christian voices.
00:29:56.000These crucial issues are why Second Vote does the research to expose big corporations by scoring hundreds of companies on traditional American values.

00:30:33.000I know you're thinking right now, what is the hope for the country?
00:30:38.000Because I know there's so much negativity that happens here, and we have to continue to show that there is hope and some of the things that we are doing are really working.
00:31:17.000Novak, Frank Ponyke, which good news are you waiting exactly from U.S. weapon exemption or?
00:31:23.000Well, yeah, I mean, I'm not vaccinated and I'm not planning to get vaccinated, so the only good news I can have is them removing the mandated green vaccine card or whatever you call it to enter the United States or exemption.
00:32:58.000He was a communist revolutionary statesman.
00:33:01.000But there was a fair amount of suppression of free speech, of suppression of bodily autonomy, of the clamping down of individual rights and liberties.
00:33:12.000Some people saw him as authoritarian, other people as a benevolent dictator.
00:33:16.000But Novak Zhoikovic certainly realized growing up that that is not the way that human beings should live.
00:33:23.000So why is Novak Zhoikovic willing to put up principle over a stupid and silly and meaningless vaccine mandate?
00:33:33.000Because he does not have a memory of freedom.
00:33:36.000He knows freedom now, but he has a memory of tyranny.
00:33:41.000You see, Novak Zhoikovic was raised by parents that lived under that kind of a regime where they could force you to do something.
