The Charlie Kirk Show - Mandates, Mark Milley, and the Evolution of the Conservative Movement with Laura Ingraham

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, welcome to this very special episode of the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:00:03.000 With us today is a friend of mine, an American patriot, and someone who has been fighting very hard for all things that are good and true and beautiful, Laura Ingram from, of course, Fox News and many other incredible things that Laura has done, including speechwriter for Reagan in the 80s and clerking for the great Clarence Thomas and so much more.

00:00:22.000 Luck luck, everybody, here.

00:00:23.000 We go.

00:00:24.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:26.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

00:00:28.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:31.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:34.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:35.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:36.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:00:38.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:00:44.000 Turning point USA. 0.65

00:00:45.000 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.

00:00:54.000 That's why we are here.

00:00:56.000 Hey, everybody.

00:01:23.000 Laura, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:01:25.000 Hey, I was just a little peon in the Reagan administration.

00:01:28.000 I was like a junior domestic policy speechwriter, but it was in the Reagan administration.

00:01:33.000 And I was even younger than you, Charlie, if you can believe it.

00:01:37.000 That's a long time ago.

00:01:39.000 Well, I mentioned it for a reason because you have been in the conservative movement to see kind of what's been happening with how sometimes conservatives try to pander to the media and how the media will only say something favorable about a conservative if they're willing to attack other conservatives, which kind of goes to your open or some of your comments yesterday that I saw about George W. Bush's 9-11 speech.

00:02:07.000 I thought that was a really profound take.

00:02:09.000 Can you help build that out for our audience?

00:02:12.000 Yeah, well, so the 20th anniversary of September 11th, so important, so emotional, so meaningful for all of America.

00:02:22.000 And Biden didn't speak live.

00:02:25.000 Clinton didn't speak live.

00:02:28.000 Obama didn't speak.

00:02:30.000 But it was very interesting that the only former president who gave a live address was George W. Bush, who got most of the plaudits for attacking conservatives.

00:02:45.000 Kind of cloaked in this swelled, you know, foreign threats and domestic threats, and I'm paraphrasing, are equally disturbing and dangerous for our nation.

00:02:57.000 And we must confront them.

00:03:00.000 They're of the same foul spirit as what happened on 9-11.

00:03:06.000 Now, I mean, why have you need Biden to speak?

00:03:12.000 You got Bush to speak and have the message resonate not just across the country, but around the world on that profound day.

00:03:20.000 And I'd like to say it surprised me, but it really didn't.

00:03:24.000 And this, and I, and look, I was very friendly with President Bush.

00:03:29.000 I personally have always liked him, but I don't like what his policies did to America.

00:03:38.000 And this, again, is someone who voted for him twice, supported him.

00:03:41.000 I supported the war in Iraq.

00:03:43.000 I, you know, ultimately changed my mind on that in 2007 or so, 2006, after I was there For a very short period of time, about a week, marinating in what the soldiers had told me there.

00:03:59.000 Took me a while, but I finally got there to think: okay, what are we doing?

00:04:05.000 What are we doing there?

00:04:07.000 And how are we possibly going to declare victory when victory really isn't even the metrics for victory, much like we're seeing now with COVID, aren't really established.

00:04:22.000 And so, so the concern about internationalism and globalism and open borders and China and the World Trade Organization, all of this came together to have Republicans lose the House, the Senate, and the presidency by the end of the Bush administration.

00:04:45.000 It was a wipeout of the Republican Party because, frankly, independents, Charlie said, we're done.

00:04:53.000 Republicans hated these wars, and we had the housing crisis, the housing bubble burst, the internet bubble was in 2001 under Bush, 9-11, and basically flat wages for the whole time for the middle class.

00:05:07.000 So, look, it didn't work.

00:05:09.000 It's not personal with the Bushes.

00:05:11.000 It's just their policies didn't work.

00:05:12.000 And the party roundly rejected them.

00:05:16.000 Roundly.

00:05:16.000 The Tea Party came along, took the party back.

00:05:20.000 Then, of course, Romney kind of played both Thurston Howell III and tried to be tough on China.

00:05:26.000 That didn't work.

00:05:28.000 And then, you know, Trump came along.

00:05:30.000 And now we're seeing that they really have to kill off as much as they can of populist conservatism, nationalist, populist, I think, more Reagan-like conservatism.

00:05:44.000 That's what they're trying to do now.

00:05:45.000 So, Laura, maybe you can help me understand what is it in particular that Bush and the ruling class hates the most about kind of this new populist nationalist movement that is multiracial and it is kind of more of an emphasis on middle-class workers, something you were talking about well before Trump came onto the scene.

00:06:04.000 Kind of one way it's described is that, well, the Bushes are heavily invested in corporate interests or that they have a more global mindset.

00:06:13.000 What is it that kind of the Bush, the Romney, the Billy Crystals, like those people find such great exceptions?

00:06:21.000 Because it's not just style.

00:06:22.000 We now know that, right, Laura?

00:06:23.000 Because they always are like, oh, yeah, it's because Trump's style.

00:06:25.000 He's all these things.

00:06:27.000 We always saw through that.

00:06:28.000 Yeah, so what is it in particular that really they find to be so disgusting?

00:06:33.000 Well, I think the more power to the people, the less power for them.

00:06:39.000 I mean, when the average person is happy and going to football games and able to put money away and go on vacations, and I mean, they don't need the government.

00:06:53.000 Yes.

00:06:54.000 They don't need big government.

00:06:56.000 They're happy with their own lives.

00:06:58.000 I truly believe these are, for the most part, post-American leaders.

00:07:06.000 I don't know what Bush is thinking, or maybe it's more of a family tradition.

00:07:11.000 They're more internationalist than they are America-focused, maybe.

00:07:17.000 Or they view that America's role in the world is to try to nurture other countries and remake them if possible.

00:07:30.000 And free trade and free flow of goods and people across borders is all just one big kumbaya moment.

00:07:38.000 Well, maybe he thinks that.

00:07:40.000 It obviously isn't because it doesn't work for the middle class. 0.99

00:07:43.000 But for people like Obama and Clinton, and obviously with Biden, think about it.

00:07:48.000 They all came into office without a lot of money.

00:07:52.000 I mean, comparatively to the rest of the country.

00:07:54.000 Clinton had literally no money.

00:07:57.000 Biden, the only money Biden has ever made is because of his position in government.

00:08:05.000 And obviously, his son business gets billions from China, and suddenly we're supposed to not think Biden's in the back pocket of China.

00:08:13.000 And then, of course, Obama came into office, I think, with less than a million dollars and now is worth like $250 million.

00:08:21.000 How does that work?

00:08:23.000 Trump lost money when he was in office.

00:08:25.000 They all became extremely, extremely wealthy by being open to China, by being globalist in outlook, and by not being one of the unwashed populist masses.

00:08:43.000 I mean, it's a lot harder to be just a regular conservative that doesn't compromise every five minutes.

00:08:52.000 When I say harder, it's if you care about affirmation from the elites, if you care about making money in elite circles, Charlie, like I'm not going to get invited to go on a junket to Europe with the Chamber of Commerce for a reason.

00:09:06.000 You know, now ask me if I care.

00:09:08.000 I don't care.

00:09:09.000 But a lot of other people do.

00:09:10.000 And I'm not saying that's the sole motivation.

00:09:13.000 I think a lot of it's just political and knee-jerk.

00:09:16.000 But I do think a lot of them believe that America is pretty much done.

00:09:22.000 I mean, China is going to eclipse us in the next five to 10 years, especially if Biden's policies continue.

00:09:28.000 And then, to me, the question is, how does America remain independent and free?

00:09:34.000 When that's the dynamic around the world, how do we say an independent country?

00:09:41.000 We see what's happened to Hong Kong.

00:09:42.000 We see what's about to happen to Taiwan.

00:09:44.000 Australia and New Zealand are poised for big problems vis-à-vis China.

00:09:49.000 But, you know, is there a slow-rolling surrender underway where the elites are going to be taken care of?

00:09:56.000 Because they always are in this situation.

00:09:58.000 I mean, they'll be paid off.

00:09:59.000 I mean, I know it sounds very conspiratorial, but I don't even know if they think about it that way.

00:10:04.000 But I think that's the reality of what we're seeing play out. 0.79

00:10:08.000 These aren't dumb people. 0.90

00:10:09.000 They're not dumb. 0.87

00:10:11.000 They see that China's gobbling up resources, land, commercial real estate, residential real estate, cutting deals all over the world, rare earth materials, moving through soon, Afghanistan, to get whatever leverage they can there. 0.99

00:10:26.000 And they haven't gotten involved in any of these stupid wars over the last 20 years. 0.98

00:10:31.000 None. 0.99

00:10:33.000 But we've made them really rich.

00:10:34.000 That's right.

00:10:35.000 And the American ruling class is perfectly positioned to all of a sudden become a globalist ruling class.

00:10:44.000 There's almost no loyalty at all to the nation.

00:10:47.000 And you're right.

00:10:47.000 They'll be able to move geographically or move their assets.

00:10:51.000 And America to them is not their home.

00:10:53.000 It's just a temporary colony.

00:12:02.000 So, kind of speaking about China and how China has attacked us through what some would call a biological weapon, otherwise known as the Fauci virus, you know, Laura, I just want to say, since the very beginning, you were probably the best of anyone I could think of of covering what was really happening with this virus, alternative treatments, and you were attacked relentlessly.

00:12:25.000 And you've been on top of the vaccine, and you've really inspired me to speak out on this as well.

00:12:30.000 I've said publicly, I'm not getting vaccinated, which of course puts you in a whole different category of attack in the eyes of the mainstream media.

00:12:38.000 And we get so many emails, Laura, from people that are saying that I'm going to lose my job.

00:12:43.000 I'm going to lose my livelihood if I don't get vaccinated.

00:12:46.000 What is your wisdom for those people?

00:12:48.000 Because people really are now seeing their livelihoods be put in jeopardy.

00:12:52.000 Yeah, there's a COVID caste system that is being established by the same elites who have no problem inviting hundreds of thousands of Chinese interests into our country every year in the way of university connections, businesses, and so forth.

00:13:11.000 So the goal, I think, is to, and when I say the goal, I mean, the global elites have learned a lot from our experience here in the United States and around the world.

00:13:25.000 The same people who run the World Economic Forum, the George Soros, Bill Gates, you know, crowd, they're probably actually shocked at how compliant the American public are with all of this.

00:13:38.000 I mean, I keep saying, like, where's the manifest destiny spirit?

00:13:43.000 Where's the American exceptionalism?

00:13:45.000 Like, where's this idea that we're common sense?

00:13:48.000 We don't want we're free because we're free.

00:13:51.000 We're not free because Anthony Fauci says we're free.

00:13:53.000 We're free because we have given God, you know, we're endowed by our creator by these inalienable rights that don't distinguish between when a big box store can open and when a church can open.

00:14:07.000 Yes.

00:14:08.000 So I think people have to, look, people, I always say people have to make their own decisions.

00:14:13.000 I'm not an anti-vaccine person, and I don't say that to try to protect myself from criticism.

00:14:18.000 I'm criticized morning and night, and I don't care.

00:14:21.000 But I think we have to be very candid with the American people about this virus, period.

00:14:30.000 That it's with us.

00:14:32.000 It's going to be with us.

00:14:34.000 It's obviously endemic to our society.

00:14:36.000 You can never get to zero.

00:14:38.000 They've constantly changed and moved the goalposts.

00:14:42.000 We can't rely on them to tell us the truth.

00:14:45.000 When they can't be truthful about acquired immunity, natural immunity through prior exposure, when they're not being truthful about that, then I don't trust them, frankly, about most things.

00:14:59.000 Yes.

00:15:00.000 And I'm not looking to distrust anybody, but I feel like over the last 19 months, I feel like I'm very proud of the Ingram Angles coverage because I forced myself to learn a whole new world that I never thought in my wildest dreams I'd learn.

00:15:19.000 I'm not saying I'm an immunologist, but I'm just saying I think I've gotten fairly conversant on the basics of immunology, just the basics and how a good experiment is done and how a lame experiment is done, how consensus doesn't really ever exist on most science.

00:15:42.000 It takes years and years and years and years for a real consensus to develop over a long period of time.

00:15:48.000 And also the financial interests, which killed off things like hydroxychloroquine, which is just a complete outrage.

00:15:58.000 I mean, I have one of the most brilliant minds on infectious disease treatment whose father was a pioneer in the AIDS research with Fauci, Stephen Smith.

00:16:08.000 And Stephen Smith said he thinks 100,000 lives could have been saved in the United States, at least with early interventions with the antiviral known as hydroxychloroquine.

00:16:18.000 So we saw what they did to that, right?

00:16:20.000 I mean, that was, I mean, that was just a hit and run by the media and Fauci.

00:16:28.000 That's right.

00:16:29.000 Now, why?

00:16:30.000 Why?

00:16:31.000 Why is he trying to demonize American physicians who are seeing actual results?

00:16:38.000 He doesn't treat COVID patients.

00:16:40.000 He talks about COVID patients.

00:16:42.000 I actually interview doctors who treat them and have treated hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds. 0.97

00:16:48.000 So with all due respect to Dr. Fauci, I'm not saying he's a dumb person. 0.91

00:16:52.000 He's obviously not a dumb person.

00:16:54.000 But I think there's an enormous amount of wisdom in practiced medicine.

00:16:59.000 And for some reason, they have wanted to destroy the independence of the family practitioner and the infectious disease specialists and other doctors treating physicians across this country.

00:17:14.000 They've threatened them.

00:17:15.000 They've tried to revoke their hospital privileges.

00:17:19.000 They've told them what they can prescribe to their patients when it comes to antivirals and other therapeutics that have virtually zero side effects for most Americans.

00:17:28.000 Yes.

00:17:29.000 Now, why?

00:17:31.000 Why have they, if it's really about COVID, why did they do that?

00:17:35.000 Why are they leaving the southern border open?

00:17:37.000 I'm not saying Fauci, but the administration.

00:17:40.000 Why are refugees being sent all over the country, many of whom have, now we find out, have measles and others who are infected with COVID?

00:17:48.000 Like, what is really going on here?

00:17:51.000 And we're wondering why a lot of Americans don't trust this vaccine.

00:17:56.000 Look at the track record of the people who brought us the vaccine.

00:18:00.000 Yes.

00:18:00.000 That's all I'm saying.

00:18:02.000 Well, I couldn't agree more.

00:18:04.000 And actually, we got kicked off Twitter for quoting Stephen Smith, who I think was on your show about hydroxychloroquine.

00:18:11.000 That's what I'm talking about.

00:18:13.000 And it was just, we quoted it and we got kicked off Twitter.

00:18:16.000 And that's that kind of drive-by shooting from the media and from the corporate oligarchy and big tech.

00:18:21.000 So we've been talking about ivermectin on our show, and it's the same thing, same sort of thing where they don't want any sort of this treatment coverage.

00:18:31.000 Charlie Kirk here, and I've warned you about home title theft, where cyber thieves remove you from your home's title and become the owner.

00:18:38.000 I said you better get home title lock because it's coming.

00:18:40.000 Well, if you're on Facebook, that big breach is here.

00:18:42.000 Facebook had 500 million accounts exposed to cyber thieves.

00:18:46.000 And according to a retired FBI cyber crime expert, everything thieves need to take over as the new owner of your home was leaked.

00:18:52.000 Name, address, personal information, it's out there.

00:18:54.000 The thief forges your signature on a quit claim deed stating you sold your home to him.

00:18:58.000 He'll leave you in debt or he'll even have you evicted.

00:19:01.000 Do what I did and protect your home's title with home title lock.

00:19:04.000 Go to hometitalock.com and register your address to see if you're already a victim.

00:19:08.000 Then sign up for 30 free days of protection during this high-risk breach.

00:19:11.000 Then sign up for 33 days of protection.

00:19:13.000 Again, home titlelock.com, promo code radio.

00:19:16.000 That's hometital.com, promo code radio.

00:19:21.000 So, Laura, what do you say then for someone who's about to lose their job and they want to take a stand?

00:19:26.000 You know, there's not much that could be said other than, you know, stand for your beliefs.

00:19:30.000 You'll be blessed in the long run.

00:19:31.000 You know, welcome to the fight.

00:19:33.000 Well, but maybe just some encouragement.

00:19:34.000 I think it's hard.

00:19:35.000 It's hard because there are a lot of people who can't.

00:19:37.000 I just talked to a nurse this morning who just took the second vaccine and she feels terrible.

00:19:45.000 She's not having a wildly bad reaction.

00:19:47.000 She just feels really yucky.

00:19:49.000 Yes.

00:19:49.000 And that's, we've heard a lot of people feel really yucky.

00:19:52.000 Some people feel fine and have no problems.

00:19:54.000 But she just feels really yucky.

00:19:55.000 And I said, well, how yucky?

00:19:57.000 She said, I feel like I don't want to get out of bed.

00:20:00.000 I can't get out of bed.

00:20:01.000 I'm sure I'll be fine.

00:20:02.000 But then she said, but I feel really yucky because they made me do this and I did not want to do this.

00:20:08.000 She's like, I feel disgusted.

00:20:11.000 It's a direct quote.

00:20:12.000 I feel disgusted that this is the country I live in, but it's not the country I grew up in.

00:20:18.000 She's 43 years old from Kansas City, Kansas City, Missouri, excuse me.

00:20:23.000 Yeah.

00:20:24.000 And there are a lot of people, but she said, Laura, I'm divorced.

00:20:27.000 I have three children, two in college, one in high school.

00:20:30.000 I have to support my family.

00:20:32.000 I can't work from home.

00:20:34.000 When they condescendingly the other day, I don't know if it was one of the cabinet members, Biden's cabinet members, I can't remember which one, said, oh, people can work from home.

00:20:43.000 They can homeschool their kids if they don't want their kids to be vaccinated.

00:20:46.000 They can work from home if they don't want to do the vaccine for their company.

00:20:51.000 I'm thinking, how condescending?

00:20:53.000 Just because some professional elites and the media and Wall Street and high tech can work from home, I can tell you who's not working from home.

00:21:02.000 The grocery store clerks or a lot of the pilots who are flying planes.

00:21:07.000 I'm hearing from them as well, by the way.

00:21:10.000 The flight attendants, they can't work from home. 0.92

00:21:12.000 They fly.

00:21:14.000 Now they're threatening flying.

00:21:17.000 Like passengers are going to have to have a COVID vaccine.

00:21:20.000 So, look, I don't know what to say.

00:21:23.000 I'm not trying to be coy here.

00:21:25.000 I don't know what to say because, I mean, people have to support their families.

00:21:32.000 But they certainly should vote out anyone who's pushed these mandates.

00:21:37.000 Well, and that's my other question.

00:21:39.000 And Laura, you've been phenomenal on this, which is where's the opposition party?

00:21:43.000 I've been texting some senators and they say, yeah, you know, we've been pressuring this person, that person.

00:21:48.000 Where is the outrage?

00:21:49.000 Their voters are just forget their voters.

00:21:51.000 Just Americans are being crushed by this multi-institutional oligarchy of government and private business.

00:21:59.000 I have not seen the backlash from the Republican Party that I would want to see for this.

00:22:04.000 I mean, I've seen some lawsuits here and there, but nothing even close to what I would have expected.

00:22:10.000 That is not a good sign for the next iteration when they try to take weapons away from us.

00:22:14.000 They try to vaccinate children.

00:22:15.000 Am I missing something here?

00:22:17.000 Or is it just that?

00:22:18.000 I completely agree with you.

00:22:20.000 And I am perpetually underwhelmed by the GOP.

00:22:27.000 I mean, it seems to me that we kind of saw what they were made of, not all of them, but enough when they went along with that bogus infrastructure deal with the Democrats, which helped pave the way for the discussion about the 3.5 trillion.

00:22:42.000 Yes.

00:22:42.000 So they decided in the middle of an inflationary storm that we're facing, with $29 trillion now in debt and counting.

00:22:51.000 It looks like it'll be $3 trillion by the end of the year.

00:22:53.000 We're adding to our debt or our budget deficit will be $3 trillion by the end of the year.

00:22:59.000 I mean, they decide that we got to spend a teeny tiny bit on infrastructure and a bunch of other crap.

00:23:06.000 Yes. 0.93

00:23:09.000 What?

00:23:10.000 I mean, that Senator Cassidy from Louisiana came on my show and was so condescending to me.

00:23:15.000 And I don't care.

00:23:17.000 I don't know.

00:23:17.000 I agree.

00:23:18.000 He totally was.

00:23:20.000 I completely.

00:23:20.000 Yeah.

00:23:20.000 He's like laughing at me.

00:23:21.000 He's like, oh, no, we're going to shut this other spending bill down.

00:23:24.000 This is a really great bill, Laura.

00:23:26.000 And I looked at him and I said, gosh, I've never seen you as animated when you're arguing with a Democrat.

00:23:32.000 Why is that?

00:23:33.000 They only get animated like Bush when they're going up against conservatives.

00:23:36.000 That's right.

00:23:37.000 They never really take the fight to the Democrats.

00:23:39.000 That's why Bush has been mute on everything from Benghazi to Obamacare to the 12 dead in Afghanistan.

00:23:46.000 Where was Bush when we needed him last summer when the whole country was burning?

00:23:50.000 Never heard from him then.

00:23:52.000 I totally agree.

00:23:53.000 And if the base of the country, the regular man, has no party to represent them, then the whole country falls apart because we know who represents the permanent government class and the activist class.

00:24:05.000 We know who represents the ruling class. 0.55

00:24:07.000 But I mean, you get these same messages I get, Laurie.

00:24:09.000 You just talked about one, where it's just normal people that are earning $65,000 a year and have two kids, and they've really never cared that much about politics.

00:24:17.000 But all of a sudden, now politics is caring about them.

00:24:19.000 And they're like, wait a second, you know, who's here to defend me?

00:24:22.000 And we're kind of like, yeah, sorry.

00:24:23.000 We don't have a party for that in our country anymore.

00:24:26.000 And it's just so sad.

00:24:27.000 It's so tragic.

00:24:28.000 I do think we've had some great governors step up.

00:24:33.000 Obviously, DeSantis has been great.

00:24:34.000 Yes.

00:24:36.000 You know, I think some others have been really strong.

00:24:39.000 Pete Ricketts in Nebraska, Tate Reeves in Mississippi, Bill Lee in Tennessee, Christy Noam in South Dakota, Greg Abbott's been pretty good as well against these mandates.

00:24:50.000 So look, I mean, holding on to our freedom and our independence in the face of China and a government, you know, a bipartisan group of government cooperators is not going to be easy. 0.82

00:25:06.000 But all we can do is continue to fight, and all we can do is continue to vote.

00:25:11.000 And I just refuse to kind of sit back and say, oh, woe is me.

00:25:16.000 There's nothing we can do about this.

00:25:18.000 I mean, look, we have an enormous number of people on our side.

00:25:23.000 And I think a growing coalition of diverse people on our side who don't like this, don't trust it, and see what's happening to the country.

00:25:34.000 But we're not well funded compared to the, you know, all you have to say to look at is Gavin Newsom versus Larry Elder.

00:25:41.000 Newsom has, what, $70 million to spend?

00:25:44.000 Larry Elder has eight.

00:25:46.000 So.

00:25:49.000 Listen up, everybody.

00:25:50.000 We are just weeks away from yet another American travesty, one that could lead our country even further down the road to tyranny.

00:25:58.000 I'm talking, of course, about court packing, the far left's radical plan to rig our entire federal judiciary system by adding four liberal justices to the Supreme Court and completely destroying the constitutional rule of law in our country as we know it.

00:26:13.000 Thankfully, my friends at First Liberty Institute, a national nonprofit law firm, are taking a stand.

00:26:20.000 They've written a letter telling the Biden Commission to reject this brazen court packing scheme.

00:26:26.000 And now prominent leaders, plus over 100,000 patriots like you have joined their coalition.

00:26:31.000 Franklin Graham, former Attorney General Ed Meese, Dr. Dobson, plus organizations like the American Policy Association, Concerned Women for America, are all on board.

00:26:41.000 Now it's up to you.

00:26:43.000 Sign your name right now next to these leaders by September 15th.

00:26:47.000 Go to supremecoup.com.

00:26:50.000 That's supremecoup.com right now.

00:26:53.000 They're trying to pack the Supreme Court.

00:26:55.000 My friend Kelly Shackleford runs this amazing organization.

00:26:59.000 So do me a favor, check it out, sign it.

00:27:01.000 It's free of charge.

00:27:02.000 SupremeCoup.com.

00:27:06.000 So in closing, I just want, I also want to plug Laura's amazing podcast.

00:27:10.000 It's quakemedia.com/slash Laura.

00:27:13.000 That's quakemedia.com/slash Laura.

00:27:16.000 If you guys are interested in getting Laura's podcast, which you have some wonderful guests on.

00:27:22.000 You just had Nigel Farage and Rick Grinnell on, which I encourage people to look at.

00:27:26.000 Last question here, Laura, with some breaking news with Mark Milley, who it has now come out to show that he was probably illegally doing some meetings with fellow generals to try to undercut President Trump.

00:27:41.000 How do we take this?

00:27:43.000 He should be relieved of his command immediately.

00:27:46.000 His behavior, his actions, and I have no reason to doubt what's reported in that book is not true, given his conduct recently.

00:27:59.000 There is now no doubt that he is unfit to serve as chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

00:28:04.000 He should immediately be relieved of his command, and frankly, he should be pursued in military court for court-martial.

00:28:18.000 This is the insurrection.

00:28:20.000 Yes.

00:28:21.000 You want to know what an insurrection is?

00:28:22.000 You get a guy with tens of billions of dollars in weaponry in a Pentagon budget behind him conspiring against the commander-in-chief elected by the United States of America.

00:28:37.000 That's the insurrection.

00:28:39.000 And apparently he called China and warned his Chinese counterpart that if a war began, we basically were, you know, we have it under control.

00:28:51.000 Again, I'm paraphrasing, but so he called his Chinese counterpart instead of talking to the Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader together.

00:29:03.000 Like he had real concerns, but he went to China to share them about the U.S. government.

00:29:08.000 What do you think that does to our national security?

00:29:11.000 I mean, the man is an absolute train wreck.

00:29:18.000 He has failed in every military conflict.

00:29:22.000 These generals have not won a war outright in 77 years or 76 years.

00:29:29.000 And we're supposed to be lectured by them on the cultural issues or white rage or critical race theory or all this blame shifting about what happened during the election or January 6th or any of it. 0.72

00:29:47.000 How about win a freaking war with all the money that we sent you?

00:29:52.000 How about give some decent advice and abide by what the president instructs you to do as a commander-in-chief, namely pull our troops out of Afghanistan in a responsible way and deploy our personnel who are brave and courageous to areas around the world that are true threats to American security. 0.75

00:30:14.000 So he absolutely, I detest what he has done.

00:30:19.000 He and many others like him, what they have done to the U.S. military and how they have recklessly flouted our Constitution and the chain of command, at the same time, castigating the average American supporter of Donald Trump.

00:30:40.000 I have no words.

00:30:41.000 I have no words for him except you're fired in my book.

00:30:45.000 Not to mention implementing CRT and wokeism into the military and defending it and saying that the greatest threat is white rage.

00:30:54.000 Yeah, well, white rage is, you know, he should go teach at a university.

00:30:58.000 He'll be welcome there with open arms.

00:31:00.000 That's right.

00:31:01.000 Quakemedia.com/slash Laura.

00:31:03.000 And of course, every single night at 10 p.m., Laura Ingram, and amazing wisdom.

00:31:09.000 And I just want to say, everyone listening, that you have a great advocate here in Laura when it comes to the vaccine mandates and fighting for your children.

00:31:18.000 Because I'm afraid it's only going to get more intense and the stakes are only going to get higher as we proceed.

00:31:23.000 Laura, thank you so much for joining us today.
