00:00:00.000 Today, the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:00:02.000 Should we care if this Roe versus Wade decision is going to impact our midterms?
00:00:06.000 Will it impact the midterms?
00:00:08.000 Also, I'm joined by Julia Rosas, who has a new book called Fiery But Mostly Peaceful.
00:00:12.000 Will they try to burn the country down because of what's happened with Roe versus Wade?
00:00:16.000 That and so much more.

00:00:33.000 Here we go.
00:00:33.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:35.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:37.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:00:39.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:42.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:45.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:46.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:47.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:00:54.000 Turning point USA. 0.65
00:00:56.000 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.
00:01:04.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:07.000 Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:01:13.000 Go to AndrewandTodd.com, the wonderfulandrewandtodd.com.
00:01:19.000 Okay, so we're getting some emails, and I was on some text messages this morning with some people that you would recognize.
00:01:25.000 And they said, Charlie, this is a terrible thing for the midterms.
00:01:29.000 The fact that the United States Supreme Court has come in and overturns Roe versus Wade, this means we are going to lose the Senate and maybe the House.
00:01:37.000 I said, hold on a second here.
00:01:39.000 I said, first of all, let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:01:42.000 Let's ask ourselves the most important question.
00:01:46.000 Is that the most important thing?
00:01:47.000 Now, that matters a lot.
00:01:49.000 Putting a check on power is incredibly important.
00:01:52.000 However, I am willing, and I think that you should be willing to say very clearly that the protection of the innocent and the unborn matters more than a potential political cost that might be associated with it.
00:02:09.000 Getting rid of evil, it's going to be tough.
00:02:12.000 It's going to be a fight.
00:02:13.000 However, I reject the premise.
00:02:15.000 Let me just say this, though.
00:02:17.000 I reject the premise because I do not believe that this decision will hurt Republicans at all going into November.
00:02:27.000 Now, it might help Democrats a little bit with turnout, but if anything, it should give Republicans confidence that when they do actually get Republicans in office, that meaningful things can actually occur.
00:02:39.000 Now, I will say this: Donald Trump deserves a lot of credit for putting Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh on the U.S. Supreme Court, but also Mitch McConnell and the establishment Republicans, of whom I disagree with a lot, that are open borders in their seemingly very into adventurous wars.
00:02:58.000 Let's just talk about this, though.
00:02:59.000 This is an important thing.
00:03:00.000 And I'm not one to praise McConnell.
00:03:02.000 You know that.
00:03:03.000 But you look at someone like Susan Collins, right?
00:03:06.000 So Susan Collins voted for Katanji Brown Jackson. 0.71
00:03:09.000 Susan Collins has always been a vocal moderate.
00:03:13.000 Susan Collins is not a right-winger.
00:03:15.000 She isn't.
00:03:16.000 She's not a conservative.
00:03:17.000 She and I sat down, we'd agree on a little bit, and that's fine.
00:03:20.000 But I've always supported the candidacy of Susan Collins because she was very honest about how moderate she was.
00:03:25.000 Now, here's the irony: Susan Collins is pro-choice. 0.97
00:03:30.000 Is that Susan Collins is pro-abortion, but because she voted for Brett Kavanaugh against the mob and then ended up winning re-election, by the way, Susan Collins, a pro-abortion candidate in Maine, actually ends up being part of the reversal of abortion.
00:03:48.000 And by the way, if it wasn't for Susan Collins, Brett Kavanaugh would not be on the U.S. Supreme Court.
00:03:54.000 It just wouldn't happen.
00:03:55.000 She was the deciding vote.
00:03:57.000 If I remember correctly, Lisa Murkowski did not vote for Brett Kavanaugh.
00:04:04.000 Joe Manchin did only after Susan Collins signaled support.
00:04:08.000 And I think Manchin would have abstained.
00:04:11.000 That's right.
00:04:12.000 Yeah, okay.
00:04:12.000 Lisa Murkowski abstained.
00:04:14.000 It was a Susan Collins vote.
00:04:16.000 Now, look, I'm not one to go try and sing, you know, praises of rhinos and of establishment folks, but what frustrates me the most is not moderates we send to D.C.
00:04:26.000 It's people that pretend to be conservative to their voters and then end up being moderates when they go to D.C. If you're a moderate, run as a moderate.
00:04:33.000 If the voters give you political power, then okay.
00:04:36.000 You were very honest with your voters.
00:04:38.000 Susan Collins has been very honest with her voters for years.
00:04:41.000 She said, I am a moderate.
00:04:44.000 I am not a conservative.
00:04:46.000 I am not a liberal.
00:04:48.000 I'm in the middle.
00:04:49.000 I represent Maine first.
00:04:51.000 And I'm in a caucus with Republicans.
00:04:51.000 All right.
00:04:54.000 I respect that.
00:04:55.000 I really do.
00:04:56.000 Unlike Mitt Romney, who campaigns like Ted Cruz and actually is more moderate than Susan Collins or some of these other establishment folks.
00:05:06.000 Just be honest to your voters.
00:05:09.000 And so in a very ironic turn of events, here's Susan Collins, who probably has already issued a tweet saying that she's concerned that Roe versus Wade will be, I almost guarantee, Connor, look it up.
00:05:23.000 I almost guarantee Susan Collins is going to say, like, I don't like the decision, even though she was instrumental in the decision.
00:05:29.000 And I totally support that.
00:05:30.000 Now, what I'm getting at, though, and it's a fine line for some conservatives, is we must be willing to be a little pragmatic at times.
00:05:39.000 Now, that's a difficult word, right?
00:05:40.000 Because that's not who I am.
00:05:43.000 I was just in Ohio for JD Vance bashing the Republican establishment.
00:05:47.000 And then the next day, Charlie, you're complimenting Susan Collins.
00:05:49.000 Yeah, of course I am.
00:05:51.000 Because I like people that are honest to their voters.
00:05:53.000 I want to win.
00:05:55.000 And Susan Collins is very clear.
00:05:58.000 This is what she said.
00:06:00.000 Yeah, this is what Susan Collins says, which is fine, like whatever.
00:06:04.000 She said, quote, if this leaked draft opinion is the final decision and this reporting is accurate, it'd be completely inconsistent with what Justice Gorsuch and Justice Kavanaugh said in their hearings and in our meetings in my office.
00:06:14.000 That's fine.
00:06:15.000 Let Susan Collins blow some smoke off. 1.00
00:06:17.000 Let her do that. 0.99
00:06:18.000 She voted for both.
00:06:20.000 I think she voted for Gorsuch.
00:06:21.000 Yeah, I'm not mistaken.
00:06:22.000 Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.
00:06:23.000 I might, mind you, this is a technical thing, right?
00:06:25.000 And so Collins is saying that Kavanaugh and Gorsuch misled her.
00:06:32.000 No, they didn't, because they didn't actually, this decision is not about abortion, right?
00:06:36.000 This decision is very little about the what they call the medical technology of abortion.
00:06:42.000 It's do the states have a right to determine their own course when it comes to these issues?
00:06:42.000 It's not.
00:06:49.000 Or is what is called a enumerated right a blanket protection all across the land?
00:06:58.000 Now, this is getting some people nervous because they're worried that now gay marriage could be repealed, amongst many other things.
00:07:05.000 But Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, I would argue, are actually consistent with what they told Susan Collins.
00:07:12.000 If I remember Kavanaugh, when he was asked about Roe versus Wade, he said, look, Roe versus Wade is precedent.
00:07:17.000 It would take a lot for me to have to look at that and overturn it.
00:07:21.000 And he said something about abortion being protected by the courts.
00:07:26.000 That doesn't sound inconsistent.
00:07:27.000 Now, the essence of what Susan Collins might have heard might have been inconsistent, but I actually don't care what Susan Collins is putting on a press release.
00:07:35.000 And you shouldn't either.
00:07:35.000 I don't care.
00:07:36.000 She voted for them.
00:07:39.000 So we as conservatives, we want to start to win.
00:07:42.000 We want to put points on the board, of course.
00:07:45.000 But it starts with honesty.
00:07:47.000 So if you try to create a team and one person stands for something and then they don't, you're not able to create that coalition.
00:07:55.000 And this is one of the things that bothers us most about some of these more rhino senators is that they run like a super right winger in their states. 0.86
00:08:02.000 They come at the other thing.
00:08:03.000 But then Susan Collins has always been a moderate.
00:08:05.000 She's even a moderate in her decision.
00:08:06.000 Whatever, fine, okay.
00:08:08.000 What matters is Roe versus Wade is now repealed thanks to her decision.
00:08:12.000 It would not have happened if it wasn't for Susan Collins, and God bless her for that.
00:08:16.000 Despite her press releases, despite her own pro-abortion leanings or inklings.
00:08:21.000 And by the way, regardless of your position on abortion, which I know there's a million different positions on abortions, not a million, but there's a lot.
00:08:29.000 There's a lot of nuance people have with it.
00:08:32.000 I have a very strong pro-life views, obviously.
00:08:35.000 Let's just bring it to the states.
00:08:36.000 Let's just start there.
00:08:38.000 That shouldn't be controversial.
00:08:40.000 Bring it to your state.
00:08:41.000 We want local government.
00:08:42.000 When you have a highly complex issue, I don't think it's that complex, but let's just say it's complex.
00:08:47.000 Okay, fine.
00:08:48.000 Let's just say it's controversial.
00:08:49.000 I'll agree with that.
00:08:50.000 People get really heated about it.
00:08:52.000 Let's let the states govern their own course. 0.98
00:08:54.000 We do that with other things, by the way.
00:08:55.000 We've done that with marijuana.
00:08:57.000 We've done that.
00:08:58.000 We used to do that with gay marriage. 0.93
00:08:59.000 We've done that with all sorts of different things.
00:09:01.000 You go to New Jersey, for example.
00:09:04.000 They don't let you pump your own gas.
00:09:06.000 It's like a weird thing.
00:09:07.000 Like you go to New Jersey, they have someone that pumps your own gas.
00:09:10.000 Not exactly sure that should be federal law.
00:09:13.000 Tennessee, you can get Ivermectin now without a prescription.
00:09:16.000 Laboratories of democracy, as the liberal Justice Louis Brandeis said.
00:09:21.000 And so in a highly fractured time, what is the argument actually to nationalize abortion?
00:09:25.000 There really isn't one.
00:09:26.000 The Constitution was designed from a bottom-up perspective, and that's precisely what Alito and Roberts and Thomas and Amy Coney Barrett and Gorsuch decided in this leak decision is not that they think abortion was wrong.
00:09:39.000 I would have made, I think if Clarence Thomas wrote the opinion, you're like, hey, I think that abortion is unconstitutional.
00:09:45.000 I think Gorsuch and Alito would have agreed.
00:09:46.000 Maybe Andy Kony Barrett, but I don't think they would have won Kavanaugh over with that.
00:09:50.000 Instead, the way this was decided and the way that the prudent way to look at it is, look, what does the Constitution say?
00:09:58.000 Why don't we allow the states to make their decisions? 1.00
00:10:01.000 And let's do it.
00:10:02.000 Because, look, I believe that it's unconstitutional, but I'll fully admit it takes some kind of calisthenics to make that argument.
00:10:10.000 You have to kind of infer some things, but that's okay.
00:10:12.000 But there's no way you could say abortion is protected in the Constitution.
00:10:16.000 It just isn't.
00:10:17.000 It isn't a specified right.
00:10:19.000 It is not.
00:10:20.000 By the way, taking decisions away from D.C. weakens these woke radicals and the great reset team.
00:10:28.000 Regardless of your position on the issue, that should give you hope that D.C. got weaker with this decision.
00:10:34.000 There's something a little bit suspicious about the timing of all this, don't you think?
00:10:38.000 Why this week?
00:10:40.000 Now, it could be that this is just kind of leading up to the summer, but there's some weird things happening.
00:10:46.000 And I'm not saying they're connected, okay?
00:10:48.000 I'm just saying that are there coincidences to such a great extent.
00:10:53.000 Just explore this with me.
00:10:54.000 Kamala Harris is allegedly speaking at the Emily's List fundraiser tonight.
00:10:59.000 This is the week that 2000 Mules is out by Dinesh D'Souza.
00:11:03.000 We know the regime doesn't want you focused on that.
00:11:05.000 Probably would have taken all the headlines.
00:11:08.000 We know that Democrats were failing in midterm polls.
00:11:10.000 Maybe they thought this would resurrect their midterm chances, give them a chance to really organize ahead of time.
00:11:18.000 I think it's bad timing for them.
00:11:20.000 Should they have waited closer to the midterms?
00:11:21.000 Well, the Supreme Court decision would have happened in late June at the latest.
00:11:25.000 So this is not that ahead of time.
00:11:27.000 Maybe it was just a politico ratings thing.
00:11:29.000 They got it as quickly as they could and they could turn it around.
00:11:31.000 I don't know.
00:11:33.000 Maybe they're really worried that JD Vance is going to win in Ohio.
00:11:36.000 I'm kidding.
00:11:37.000 Could be.
00:11:38.000 It could be.
00:11:38.000 I don't know.
00:11:39.000 They could be using this as a distraction or there could be nothing behind this at all whatsoever.
00:11:44.000 Let's play some sound here of, boy, there's so many sound.
00:11:50.000 The reactions are up.
00:11:51.000 Everyone has a take on this, by the way.
00:11:53.000 Every Democrat is virtue signaling.
00:11:56.000 And I just want in particular that it's, again, we live in Orwell's world, don't we?
00:12:01.000 Where they say something, and it's the exact opposite, actually, of what they're saying.
00:12:05.000 This is Elizabeth Warren.
00:12:07.000 End the filibuster, codify Roe versus Wade with a national law protecting abortion rights, expand the Supreme Court, stop this horrifying injustice in its tracks.
00:12:16.000 Injustice, really?
00:12:17.000 What is the injustice exactly?
00:12:19.000 My favorite is when they tweet out that people are going to die.
00:12:24.000 Like, nope, that's already been happening, actually.
00:12:28.000 And by the way, this will motivate our base as well.
00:12:31.000 And not to mention pro-life Catholics and moderates that are pro-life, especially in some of these states where Democrats are going to have a tough time.
00:12:39.000 Arizona in particular, Georgia is a very pro-life state.
00:12:42.000 North Carolina is a very pro-life state.
00:12:44.000 Pennsylvania has a lot of pro-life Catholics that traditionally vote Democrat.
00:12:48.000 So if that's on the ballot, look, if the Defense of Marriage Act, DOMA, no, that's not what it was.
00:12:57.000 It was one of the props.
00:12:58.000 In 2004, Karl Rove, whom I have plenty of disagreements with, but he's always been really nice to me, but I totally disagree with him on some stuff, came out and had a brilliant idea, which was to put marriage referendums of one-man, one-woman marriage in all the key states across the country, bolstering Christian turnout in 2004, which is one of the reasons why George W. Bush won re-election against John Kerry. 0.60
00:13:26.000 So maybe this will actually help increase turnout.
00:13:29.000 I don't know.
00:13:29.000 Or maybe it will help increase turnout for younger voters that are really, really pro-abortion.
00:13:35.000 This is all speculation.
00:13:36.000 Rachel Maddow is saying that if this ruling is published, abortion would become illegal in and around two dozen states due to so-called trigger laws, play cut 36.
00:13:48.000 If, in fact, this ruling survives to see the light of day, which there's no reason to expect that it won't, at least in substance, do so, from what we understand from Mr. Gerstein's reporting tonight, this would have the effect of enacting what are so-called trigger laws in more than two dozen states in the country.
00:14:05.000 More than two dozen Republican-controlled states would immediately ban abortion upon the publication of this ruling.
00:14:14.000 And so that would be 24 states that have said that if Roe versus Wade ever gets repealed, that abortion would be illegal.
00:14:22.000 Basically, this would allow states to determine if they want abortion to be illegal, putting the power back into the people.
00:14:28.000 Now, obviously, I believe it's a moral stain on the entire country.
00:14:32.000 I'd love to see it abolished completely, but that's incredible.
00:14:35.000 That's a huge win.
00:14:36.000 Something massive.
00:14:38.000 Of course, the left is going 10 out of 10 immediately, losing their mind to be expected.
00:14:45.000 This is an interesting one.
00:14:47.000 By the way, if you want to go to my kind of a sidebar when I'm looking through the cut sheet here, this goes to show the argument that how, this is a weird coincidence.
00:14:55.000 Amazon new employee benefits allow them to get $4,000 in reimbursement for traveled costs to get an abortion.
00:15:01.000 What are they going to fly private to go get an abortion? 1.00
00:15:03.000 $4,000?
00:15:04.000 Play cut 30.
00:15:06.000 Amazon told its employees today that they would be providing a new workplace benefit to allow workers to travel to other states if they need to for abortion procedures.
00:15:16.000 Sure.
00:15:17.000 Well, I don't have any comments on a decision by a private sector company.
00:15:21.000 We know our view on the archaic abortion laws that we've seen put into place across the country in some states, far too many states.
00:15:30.000 So Amazon comes out with new employee benefits saying that $4,000 in reimbursement costs for travel to get an abortion.
00:15:36.000 By the way, every time you use Amazon, remember, you're funding the abortion industry.
00:15:40.000 $4,000 in reimbursement for their travel costs to get an abortion.
00:15:43.000 I'll go into that at a different time, why Corporate America is super supportive of that.
00:15:50.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here with the left in total panic over Twitter and DHS essentially creating their own ministry of truth.
00:15:56.000 It is safe to say we're facing the biggest threat to the First Amendment in our lifetime.
00:15:59.000 That's why I'm proud to support Patriot Mobile, America's only Christian conservative cell phone provider.
00:16:03.000 They offer broad nationwide coverage to get the same great service about funding the major carriers who donate to the left.
00:16:09.000 Patriot Mobile has plans to fit any budget and their U.S.-based customer support team provides exceptional customer service.
00:16:15.000 Most importantly, Patriot Mobile shares your values and supports organizations fighting for religious freedom, constitutional rights, and the sanctity of life.

00:16:52.000 So we have a really good guest with us right now.
00:16:54.000 Fiery but mostly peaceful is the name of the book by Julio Rosas.
00:16:59.000 And he's doing a wonderful job.
00:17:01.000 And again, it's called Fiery But Mostly Peaceful, one of the best frontline journalists in the country, a legitimate journalist, unlike the people at the New York Times, the Washington Post.
00:17:10.000 Julio, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:17:12.000 Yeah, Charlie, thanks for having me.
00:17:13.000 So Julio, tell us about your book.
00:17:15.000 Tell us about kind of being on the front lines and being an actual journalist, and we'll go from there.
00:17:23.000 Yeah, so I mean, I started covering the riots in 2020 when everything popped off in late May.
00:17:30.000 And initially, my thought was, okay, I'm just going to cover Minneapolis and then that'll be it.
00:17:36.000 But then I went to Seattle to cover Chaz, that whole little experiment that happened in Seattle. 0.98
00:17:42.000 I went to Atlanta, Washington, D.C., where I'm based out of.
00:17:46.000 And it just kept happening.
00:17:47.000 And then it shifted from, oh, so this is going to stop to when is it going to stop?
00:17:54.000 And it reached a point to where not only was I obviously seeing the devastation and destruction that BLM and Antifa rioters were bringing to American cities, but then the other half of it was, well, the media was really downplaying or trying to excuse or trying to justify what was happening because of who was committing the violent acts.
00:18:13.000 And it was kind of, well, the ends justify the means or, you know, you're not really, you're focusing on the wrong things by focusing on business owners who had their places destroyed.
00:18:22.000 You know, this is what really matters.
00:18:23.000 And for me, it's really, I take really big offense to that because, like I said, I was seeing this firsthand in city after city.
00:18:31.000 And more importantly, people were innocent people who had nothing to do with, you know, for example, George Floyd or Jacob Blake and Kenosha.
00:18:40.000 They were suffering.
00:18:42.000 These were just ordinary Americans.
00:18:44.000 A lot of them were already struggling with the effects of the COVID-19 lockdowns.
00:18:48.000 And now this was being thrown on top of it.
00:18:51.000 And then the people in power, both within the media class and political class, saying, well, it doesn't really matter.
00:18:56.000 You know, what you're going through doesn't matter as much.
00:18:58.000 And so I wanted, so I wrote this book to talk about my experiences and also share the experiences of others whose voices were not really highlighted by the rest of the media.
00:19:07.000 And also to call out the media and Democratic politicians for downplaying this very, very destructive time period in our nation's history.
00:19:17.000 Yeah, so talk a little about kind of being on the front lines, though, right?
00:19:20.000 Because you covered it in a way that was very compelling and was honestly exceptional and took a lot of courage and it took a lot of time and a lot of work.
00:19:29.000 Most journalists weren't willing to do that.
00:19:31.000 Give us just kind of some first person kind of snapshots, right?
00:19:35.000 I mean, you were right there on the front lines.
00:19:37.000 You continue to be.
00:19:39.000 So the basic example of just kind of how these things work is just with, for example, with Kenosha, with specifically the Kyle Rittenhouse case.
00:19:47.000 And so I saw the second half of that.
00:19:50.000 And that was a very pivotal and very important thing to be present for.
00:19:54.000 Granted, I didn't expect to be in that.
00:19:56.000 It was just, it just kind of happened.
00:19:57.000 But it really solidified my reasoning for why I did this work.
00:20:04.000 Now, I didn't set out that night to try to prove someone's innocence, but obviously throughout that case and throughout the trial, which I also covered and talk a little bit about in the book, it's just the importance of just record what's happening.
00:20:16.000 in these very chaotic events.
00:20:18.000 You know, things are, there's a lot of things happening.
00:20:20.000 It's a little sensory overload.
00:20:21.000 You're high off adrenaline.
00:20:23.000 And so you have to really make a good effort to just record what's happening and relay that to the rest of the country.
00:20:32.000 And so I really, for me, I really made an effort for that.
00:20:37.000 And it was dangerous.
00:20:38.000 I mean, not just with Kenosha, but a lot of these other places too.
00:20:42.000 And, you know, I have to wear body armor.
00:20:44.000 I have to wear gas masks when the need arises from tear gas or from wherever.
00:20:51.000 And so it's a very taxing job, but I enjoyed doing it just because, again, a lot of the rest of the mainstream media, they're not going to be willing to put themselves there.
00:21:03.000 And so it's long hours.
00:21:08.000 I was in very great shape in 2020, just running around for 12 hours, week after week after week with all this gear on.
00:21:15.000 But it was very necessary.
00:21:18.000 And it was sad that as a nation, we reached that point.
00:21:24.000 Yeah.
00:21:24.000 And so let's talk a little bit about kind of how the left views the mob, I guess you could call it, right?
00:21:30.000 So last night they leak an early decision of what looks like to be the overturning of Roe versus Wade, almost trying to kind of stow a mob reaction, right?
00:21:43.000 Like swarms of people and potential riots.
00:21:47.000 Kind of talk more philosophically.
00:21:49.000 How does the left view these events?
00:21:52.000 Do they view them as helpful?
00:21:53.000 Do they view them as destructive or an impediment, kind of an annoyance?
00:21:59.000 How do they view these kind of mass events of destruction?
00:22:03.000 So the far left definitely views them as a tool.
00:22:07.000 I mean, it's very much the epitome of the ends justify the means.
00:22:11.000 Now, for it kind of, depending on who you're talking to in the far left, is kind of sometimes they just want to defund the police, sometimes they want to abolish the police.
00:22:18.000 And FIFA, they want to completely overthrow the U.S. government, right?
00:22:21.000 But they absolutely view just having chaos and mayhem as a way to achieve their goals.
00:22:31.000 And so that's why they do it.
00:22:32.000 And that's why they hate it when people such as myself are willing to talk to the victims of business owners, right?
00:22:39.000 I mean, the constant talking point from them is, well, you know, it's just a building.
00:22:44.000 You can replace it.
00:22:45.000 There's insurance.
00:22:47.000 And really, as I've learned kind of through research for the book and talking to business owners who survived this, for insurance, for example, not every business has the right insurance to cover this type of event.
00:23:01.000 I mean, really, from the company's perspective, that's like an act of domestic terrorism.
00:23:05.000 So you didn't have a domestic terrorism coverage.
00:23:08.000 And these are very small businesses usually that were targeted.
00:23:13.000 And so they didn't have that.
00:23:14.000 And so they're out of luck.
00:23:16.000 And so the far left really does view this as the ends justify the means.
00:23:22.000 And they're more than happy to throw people under the bus to get what they want.
00:23:29.000 And that's why it's very disturbing to see this sort of tacit, very low-key approval from politicians, from people with large platforms.
00:23:42.000 Because, you know, in my view, I don't see how destroying communities and having just wanton violence achieve the goal of defunding the police because, I mean, just on overtime, a lot of officers got overtime over this because they had to constantly be out there.
00:23:58.000 And so there's actually a problem with some cities not having enough funding to pay for that.
00:24:03.000 And so, and then they now have justification to have things like the military surplus armored vehicles and riot equipment and protective equipment.
00:24:12.000 It really kind of backfired in that way.
00:24:14.000 But now we're still dealing with the effects of the riots because the criminals saw how far people were able to get away with things.
00:24:22.000 And so now it's like kind of a low-level type of criminality with the high crime rates and the progressive DAs letting people out with little to no bail under this veneer of racial justice because of what happened in 2020.
00:24:36.000 And so really, I mean, this is snowballing and it's really very devastating to these communities, even to this day, just in a different way.
00:24:43.000 Yeah, I mean, that's such an important point.
00:24:45.000 And I mean, they try to minimize the violence and the destruction.
00:24:48.000 Oh, it's just a building.
00:24:49.000 Well, actually, it's someone's livelihood, right?
00:24:50.000 It's their savings that they brought from another country, maybe, and they try to invest it here.
00:24:54.000 It's not just the building.
00:24:56.000 And by the way, if it was just a building, it doesn't make it right.
00:24:58.000 It's not yours. 0.78
00:24:59.000 The protection of private property is fundamental to Western society.
00:25:03.000 So, Julio, let me ask you: how are the protests right now in the Roe versus Wade thing?
00:25:07.000 And how serious do you think they're going to get?
00:25:10.000 So, I was out at the Supreme Court last night just seeing, and it got a little lively because there were some pro-life people that came out also in celebration, but it was overwhelmingly pro-abortion people.
00:25:26.000 But, you know, so as of right now, they are peaceful, mostly peaceful, actually.
00:25:31.000 There wasn't anything crazy.
00:25:32.000 There wasn't actually anything, you know, rocks or bottles being thrown.
00:25:37.000 What I will say in terms of, because people have like, they were messaging me as soon as the news broke, like, oh, you might have a sequel to your book a lot sooner than you thought.
00:25:44.000 What I'll say is that kind of the theory that I have with this is that it requires buildup.
00:25:50.000 You know, these things build up over time because there is a lot of rage.
00:25:53.000 Because if we look at 2020, it was a combination of the COVID lockdowns and the effects that had.
00:25:56.000 It was a presidential election with Donald Trump where people either really love him or they really freaking hate him.
00:26:02.000 And then the spark was what happened to George Floyd.
00:26:05.000 So I think very much, I could be wrong.
00:26:08.000 These things, these things can spiral control as we've seen.
00:26:10.000 But the way I view it is, I think maybe what this decision or this potential, not yet final decision, but if when Roe versus Wade gets actually overturned, I think that's going to be kind of one of the tenants that leads to that buildup to then maybe lead to some more destruction.
00:26:26.000 And that's really sad because that then that means that our natural default or people's natural default to not to their reaction to not getting what they want is going to be violence.
00:26:38.000 And this is what I'm saying, where these things escalate.
00:26:42.000 And if we don't really kind of come back from the ledge that we're kind of careing towards, it's going to be bad.
00:26:48.000 And it's not just have to deal with Roe versus Wade.
00:26:50.000 Like I said, there could be some other things too.
00:26:52.000 I mean, when we talk about economic insecurity, I mean, the fastest way to get people to riot is to take away their ability to make a living or to feed their family.
00:26:59.000 I mean, this is real.
00:27:01.000 I mean, and that's why when we look at the Biden administration as a whole and what a disaster it's been for the country, I mean, the building blocks for something like 2020 to happen again is very real.
00:27:14.000 And, you know, I'm not trying to be like this doom and gloom.
00:27:16.000 It's just that I've seen that anger and I've seen that hatred just boil over.
00:27:21.000 And it's really real.
00:27:22.000 It's really palpable.
00:27:23.000 And it's frightening, quite honestly.
00:27:26.000 And so I don't know what's going to happen these next few years because I mean, not just with the midterms, but with 2024.
00:27:32.000 And if Trump were to say when again, I think we could be headed towards another chaotic year.
00:27:39.000 But we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
00:27:42.000 The book is fiery, but mostly peaceful.
00:27:45.000 Check it out right now and keep up the great work, Julio.
00:27:48.000 We're behind you 100%.
00:27:49.000 It's been many years since you were getting the start at turning point and doing all sorts of things together.

00:29:20.000 There is a huge push right now to try and repeal the filibuster.
00:29:27.000 Kirsten Sinema, who is just, she's something else.
00:29:31.000 You got to give her credit. 0.70
00:29:33.000 She is an unusual duck. 0.91
00:29:35.000 I'll tell you what.
00:29:36.000 So Kirsten Sinema comes out and defends the filibuster in a statement criticizing decision to overturn Roe versus Wade. 1.00
00:29:44.000 She says, quote, protections in the Senate safeguarding against the erosion of women's access to health care have been used a half dozen times in the past 10 years and are more important now than ever.
00:29:53.000 Throughout my time in Congress, I've always supported women's access to health care.
00:29:56.000 I'm a co-sponsor of the Women's Health Protection Act, and I'll continue working with anyone protecting women's ability to make their decisions about their futures.
00:30:04.000 She's still defending the filibuster, which means that you cannot go to, you cannot use the filibuster to repeal, not repeal, to enshrine or to codify Roe versus Wade.
00:30:20.000 That's the word I'm looking for.
00:30:22.000 Cut 38, Corey Bush, who is from Missouri, I believe, St. Louis, abolish the filibuster and force pro-life Americans to fund abortions for pregnant people.
00:30:33.000 Play cut 38.
00:30:35.000 Yes, I think that the president should really, that's been my stance, abolish the filibuster.
00:30:41.000 You know, but when I think about what else the president could do, one option could be through the federal, I'm sorry, through the Food and Drug Administration.
00:30:49.000 The president could have the FDA issue regulations to expand access to medical, medication abortion.
00:30:54.000 You know, we need to bring that back into the conversation so that pregnant people could have access to a two-pill regimen safely and be able to end a pregnancy. 1.00
00:31:03.000 So, look, you just got to brace yourself for unrivaled irrationality that will plague our land for the next couple of days and weeks.
00:31:10.000 If you thought you saw something with the COVID stuff, you have not seen anything yet.
00:31:15.000 I mean, just, I don't even know what she's saying.
00:31:17.000 She's talking about the Food and Drug Administration and funding chemical abortions.
00:31:20.000 Whoopi Goldberg, philosopher queen herself, has come out.
00:31:25.000 She said, quote, the decision to have an abortion is between my doctor, myself, and my child.
00:31:29.000 Really?
00:31:30.000 If it's child, then what decision do you have to make?
00:31:32.000 Play cut 37.
00:31:34.000 You, you know, you got people telling me I got to wear a mask or don't wear a mask or do this.
00:31:39.000 Everybody wants to tell me what to do, but you won't let me make my decision about my body.
00:31:46.000 You are not the person to make that decision.
00:31:51.000 My doctor and myself and my child, that's who makes the decision.
00:31:56.000 And my child.
00:31:57.000 Wait a second.
00:31:58.000 Hold on.
00:31:58.000 Wait, what?
00:32:00.000 Okay, so let me kind of address. 0.97
00:32:03.000 Their hypocrisy is so revealing, obviously. 0.78
00:32:06.000 Their hypocrisy is so transparent, where they're the ones that are screaming for bodily autonomy and they were perfectly okay with vaccine mandates and mask mandates. 0.97
00:32:16.000 They're still okay with it.
00:32:17.000 From our perspective, though, is that as soon as life begins at conception, that being is necessary and worthy of protection.
00:32:24.000 The pro-abortion crowd uses sled, size, level of development, environment, and degree of dependency.
00:32:29.000 That is the acronym S-L-E-D, SLED, to try and advocate for abortion. 0.88
00:32:34.000 Size means nothing.
00:32:35.000 Just because someone is shorter than me does not mean I have a moral obligation or a moral right, I should say, or a moral ability to be able to crush them.
00:32:41.000 Level of development, just because someone is less along the process of becoming someone like me, they're all human, but becoming an adult doesn't mean that they should be able to be eliminated.
00:32:55.000 Environment, where someone is means nothing.
00:32:57.000 Whether someone is in Cincinnati or Columbus, they have equal human rights no matter what.
00:33:01.000 And degree of dependency, just because someone is dependent on their mother doesn't all of a sudden mean that they can be abolished.
00:33:07.000 Sled, size, level of development, environment, and degree of dependency. 0.89
00:33:10.000 Those are the four arguments that the left will use.
00:33:13.000 And all of them have incredible contradictions within them.
00:33:19.000 Because if you actually extrapolate the moral argument to the rest of society, it actually doesn't apply at all or the rest of civilization, how they want things to operate or how it works.
00:33:30.000 We believe that human right is worthy of protection.
00:33:32.000 We believe that human beings should not be able to be terminated without their consent or in the womb, obviously.
00:33:41.000 And what does it say for a society or civilization if you can't protect those that can't protect themselves? 0.87
00:33:47.000 And for those of you that might be pro-abortion listening right now, just it's a very simple question.
00:33:50.000 When does life begin?
00:33:52.000 When does life begin?
00:33:54.000 Whoopi Goldberg said, when my child, what does she mean by that?
00:33:58.000 If so, she's acknowledging a human life.
00:34:00.000 But maybe she means her grown kids.
00:34:02.000 I don't know.
00:34:04.000 It's rather transparently contradictive.
