00:00:46.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:47.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:49.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:53.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:56.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:57.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:58.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:01:05.000 Turning point USA. 0.65
00:01:06.000 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.
00:01:15.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:19.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:27.000 2023 has been a difficult year for a lot of people.
00:01:32.000 We've been super blessed at Turning Point.
00:01:35.000 A leader of the movement who has put up win after win after win really got sideswiped.
00:01:44.000 It's so wrong what happened to him.
00:01:46.000 It's terrible.
00:01:47.000 James O'Keefe.
00:01:48.000 And he picked himself up despite getting run out of Project Veritas.
00:01:52.000 By the way, Veritas is like gone.
00:01:53.000 It's done.
00:01:54.000 It's really sad.
00:01:56.000 But he's still posting wins, everybody.
00:01:58.000 And we all need to have support, encouragement, prayers, because he's not out of it yet.
00:02:04.000 There's a lot of people still trying to take him out.
00:02:06.000 They're still trying to take him out.
00:02:07.000 Now, who's behind this is a really interesting question.
00:02:10.000 If I was a Democrat operative, I would go all in to try to take O'Keefe out.
00:02:13.000 Think about it.
00:02:14.000 He took out, you know, he exposed the immigration stuff, Pfizer, the vaccine. 0.56
00:02:19.000 And his latest one is a huge, huge deal.
00:02:24.000 And it's ongoing, by the way.
00:02:25.000 He's got the O'Keeffe Media Group.
00:02:27.000 You got to go.
00:02:28.000 This morning, I went up, I signed up for a monthly deal, whatever.
00:02:31.000 He'll tell you how to do that.
00:02:32.000 You got to do it.
00:02:33.000 Okay.
00:02:34.000 He's one of the few fighters.
00:02:35.000 He puts points on the board.
00:02:36.000 The guy is relentless.
00:02:38.000 He is relentless.
00:02:39.000 He's not allowing all these, I think, demonic attacks to derail him.
00:02:43.000 James, congratulations on the IBM story.
00:02:46.000 We have all the tape here.
00:02:47.000 Tell us about it.
00:02:48.000 This is one of your biggest wins, I think, in recent memory.
00:02:52.000 You could take down a publicly traded company here.
00:02:54.000 Thank you, Charlie.
00:02:55.000 Yeah, this is very unprecedented.
00:02:57.000 I've had 100 plus people inside IBM reach out to me in the last 48 hours.
00:03:02.000 That's not hyperbole.
00:03:03.000 100 plus people inside IBM are leaking, sharing information messages, video.
00:03:13.000 The CEO of IBM was recorded on this meeting with his subsidiary CEO, a company called Red Hat, discriminating against Asians, saying you're going to dock your bonus, terminate you unless you participate in this discriminatory, illegal discrimination.
00:03:31.000 So that has now, Charlie prompted last night the CEO of IBM to do like an emergency all-staff in front of the entire company talking about me, highly defensive, saying that defending himself, it wasn't illegal.
00:03:46.000 Now that was leaked to me.
00:03:49.000 And this is just really, I mean, I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:52.000 I've been doing this for 20 years.
00:03:54.000 I've had whistleblowers, but usually it's one or two.
00:03:57.000 But now it's just this tsunami.
00:03:59.000 And, you know, Charlie, your organization is called Turning Point.
00:04:02.000 I feel like we're at a tipping point where people on the inside, there's a lot of pressure.
00:04:08.000 It's pent up.
00:04:09.000 And they're just looking for a reason to expose what's happening.
00:04:12.000 And this IBM thing is, I've never seen anything like it.
00:04:15.000 It's developing.
00:04:15.000 It's a breaking story.
00:04:17.000 And it's remarkable to see people come forward with the discrimination, the DEI discrimination happening inside IBM.
00:04:24.000 Well, and what they're doing is illegal.
00:04:27.000 And so let's just play the tape here.
00:04:29.000 This is some foreigner who is the CEO.
00:04:34.000 And he basically says that we're going to coerce people and take away their bonuses unless they discriminate in the hiring process.
00:04:42.000 Play cut 91.
00:04:44.000 So we take underrepresented and gender.
00:04:46.000 You've got to move both forward by a percentage.
00:04:49.000 That leads to a plus on a bonus.
00:04:51.000 By the way, if you lose, you lose part of your bonus.
00:04:54.000 I'm not trying to finesse this.
00:04:55.000 So for blacks, we should try to get towards 13 point something percent. 1.00
00:04:59.000 On Hispanics, you got to get into the mid-teens. 0.93
00:05:01.000 So let me say it.
00:05:02.000 Asians in the U.S. are not an underrepresented minority in a tech company.
00:05:06.000 So, James, you know, I'm a context hawk.
00:05:10.000 What's going on here?
00:05:10.000 Who is he talking to?
00:05:12.000 It sounds like I've listened to this and all the other correlating video.
00:05:16.000 He's saying that you get rewarded if you discriminate against whites, and we need to pump more money to get more black tech workers.
00:05:24.000 Am I hearing this correctly?
00:05:26.000 Yeah, it's really, Charlie, the coercion, the coercive aspect of this that's the most devastating.
00:05:33.000 That was the CEO of IBM, who, by the way, also sits on the board of Northrop Grumman, military defense contractor, and he's on the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and he's a member of the World Economic Forum.
00:05:44.000 So I feel like I got a triple strike here, like in bowling.
00:05:48.000 This guy is the CEO.
00:05:49.000 He's telling his employees, listen, you must do this.
00:05:52.000 And apparently, a lot of people have been fired because they didn't do it.
00:05:56.000 And in another clip, this man named Paul Koernier, which is the chairman of a company called Red Hat, which is owned by IBM, is saying, is admitting that they've terminated people who did not participate in discrimination.
00:06:11.000 And he particularly targets Asians here.
00:06:14.000 He's saying, well, Asians, you know, need not apply.
00:06:17.000 Now, my lawyers tell me, Charlie, that this is a violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.
00:06:22.000 And it's also illegal in light of the Supreme Court case that just occurred on Harvard.
00:06:28.000 And now there's a new recording of the CEO from last night defending himself, saying that, you know, trying to spin this, but it doesn't look good.
00:06:36.000 And usually we don't have executives talking this candidly.
00:06:40.000 Of course, he doesn't know that he's going to be distributed to the whole world here.
00:06:45.000 Well, I mean, look, I hate to get like overly specific on race, but the CEO of IBM is an Asian foreigner.
00:06:54.000 So why does he lose his job?
00:06:55.000 I mean, it's just so repulsive that he gets to use the system of meritocracy or whatever system existed.
00:07:02.000 I'm sure he's good at tests or something.
00:07:04.000 He's obviously not very, very wise.
00:07:06.000 He might be bright.
00:07:06.000 He might not, he's not wise.
00:07:08.000 And then he's like, oh, yeah, by the way, now we need to discriminate against Asians for what exactly.
00:07:12.000 So what is driving this?
00:07:13.000 And tell us more about Red Hat.
00:07:15.000 Because James, I received just a couple emails, but you have hundreds of people that said, oh, yeah, I worked at IBM.
00:07:21.000 I'm a white tech worker.
00:07:22.000 I lost my job because I wasn't on board with the DEI stuff.
00:07:26.000 And James, this is just one-off people that happen to know that we're friends and all this stuff.
00:07:31.000 What is Red Hat?
00:07:32.000 And this goes really deep.
00:07:33.000 This is policy.
00:07:34.000 This is not a gaff.
00:07:35.000 I want everyone to understand.
00:07:36.000 This is not like a gaffe by the CEO.
00:07:38.000 Oops, didn't mean to say this.
00:07:40.000 This is system.
00:07:41.000 This is the SOP.
00:07:43.000 This is the standard operating procedure of one of the largest tech companies on the planet.
00:07:50.000 Just everyone understands that IBM is a $150 billion company.
00:07:56.000 James, what is Red Hat?
00:07:57.000 Red Hat's a subsidiary to IBM.
00:08:00.000 They do Linux.
00:08:01.000 They do open source.
00:08:02.000 They do software.
00:08:05.000 Paul Kernier is the chairman of Red Hat.
00:08:07.000 And the video you displayed is between Paul Kernier, who's the chairman, previously the CEO, and IBM owns Red Hat.
00:08:15.000 Red Hat's been around 30 years.
00:08:16.000 It's a great company.
00:08:17.000 I've probably heard from 20 people inside Red Hat.
00:08:21.000 Apparently, it's a very good company.
00:08:23.000 But Charlie, you're right.
00:08:25.000 This cuts really deep for people.
00:08:28.000 A lot of Caucasian men have been terminated, passed up for promotions, and they are pissed.
00:08:34.000 I have never seen anything like this.
00:08:36.000 I mean, last night on the Twitter or the X spaces, 1.2 million people, Vivek was there.
00:08:43.000 James Lindsay, my friend James Lindsay, who's an expert on DEI, was there.
00:08:47.000 This cuts really deep because people have been fired from the company because they're white and they're pissed.
00:08:56.000 And American First Legal Foundation has now filed an EOCC complaint against IBM and Red Hat.
00:09:02.000 Yes.
00:09:03.000 And I feel like, Charlie, again, there's been this sort of bubbling resentment, like a Tinderbox of anger and pent up frustration, but whistleblowers have been afraid to say so for fear of retaliation.
00:09:15.000 But I think we're learning that there's strength in numbers, just 100 plus people.
00:09:22.000 Mr. Arvind Krishna, CEO of IBM, cannot fire 100 people for talking to Charlie Kirk and James O'Keefe.
00:09:29.000 He can't whack all those molds.
00:09:31.000 That's right.
00:09:31.000 And now I think you're seeing a turning point, pun intended, of people who are courageous because they have the courage, they have the permission to do so.
00:09:39.000 These people are very vulnerable, right?
00:09:41.000 So they have used the civil rights regime to change our voting laws. 0.54
00:09:45.000 They've used the civil rights regime to try and get preferential treatment. 0.57
00:09:49.000 Now, all of a sudden, we are waking up.
00:09:50.000 We had a story yesterday about Denver public schools using the civil rights law to push back against the gay pride flag and have equal representation.
00:09:58.000 Now what we're using all of a sudden is like, wait a second, you can't discriminate against whites. 0.88
00:10:02.000 This is going to, there is serious legal liability looming.
00:10:05.000 And that's what Arvnid Krishna needs to realize, that as CEO, that if he sits on the board or whatever, you have a fiduciary responsibility to your stockholders.
00:10:14.000 And I just want everyone to understand.
00:10:16.000 And again, it's going to take some time in public opinion.
00:10:20.000 It's going to take some, we're not there yet because the courts do basically what the media tells them to do. 0.68
00:10:25.000 But if a CEO like Arvnid Krishna says, look, here, guys, I need you to no longer give blacks any bonuses, only give them to whites. 0.63
00:10:33.000 Of course, the law, not only would the law be unapologetic, IBM would be shut down and it would be tore apart. 0.81
00:10:39.000 Now, that's not going to happen because a lot of white people hate themselves, but the law is clear.
00:10:44.000 Okay. 0.86
00:10:44.000 A website. 0.86
00:10:45.000 How do people help you, James?
00:10:46.000 I became a monthly, whatever.
00:10:47.000 How do people help you?
00:10:48.000 Thank you, Charlie.

00:11:10.000 This is a huge hit, everybody.
00:11:11.000 I want you to understand this is one of James' biggest in his career.
00:11:17.000 Hey, everybody.
00:11:17.000 Our friends at Hillsdale College want to wish you a happy Christmas and healthy, prosperous new year.
00:11:23.000 Since Hillsdale's founding in 1844, it's taught its students by precept and example the teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
00:11:29.000 The college continues this mission in its classrooms and nationwide through its educational outreach efforts.
00:11:35.000 Hillsdale College is free to pursue learning, character, faith, and freedom in all they do because supporters like you allow them to refuse every penny of taxpayer money, even indirectly in the form of federal grants and loans.
00:11:45.000 So this Christmas season, my friends at Hillsdale want to thank you, dear listener, for your kindness towards the college.
00:11:50.000 They prepared a special video featuring their sacred music choir singing, O Little Town of Bethlehem, in their beautiful Christ chapel at the heart of campus.
00:11:57.000 You could also take their online courses.
00:11:58.000 They have courses about Winston Churchill, American history, Aristotle, Euclidean geometry.
00:12:03.000 Also, the Victor Davis Hansen citizenship class is amazing.
00:12:06.000 Go to charlieforhillsdale.com.
00:12:07.000 That's charlieforhillsdale.com and hear the choir and view many other free resources to help you celebrate the season.
00:12:12.000 I promise it will be uplifting and inspiring for you.
00:12:15.000 That is charlieforhillsdale.com.
00:12:20.000 Let's play this piece of tape here.
00:12:22.000 A chairman of Red Hat saying multiple leaders were fired because they weren't willing to live up to the DEI standards.
00:12:27.000 PlayCut 92.
00:12:28.000 So let me go deeper in the Red Hat.
00:12:30.000 Multiple leaders over the last year plus that were held accountable to the point that they're no longer here at Red Hat because they weren't willing to live up to the standards that we set in this space.
00:12:40.000 This conversation takes place every single day, and a lot of it's behind the scenes.
00:12:45.000 So what are they talking about here, James?
00:12:47.000 The standards that we set, hating white people is the standard at Red Hat. 0.72
00:12:51.000 Is that right? 0.96
00:12:52.000 Yeah, Charlie.
00:12:53.000 So I've gotten legal guidance here.
00:12:54.000 I'm going to read this to you: that the CEO saying, quote, you got to improve by a percent a year.
00:12:59.000 That was the Krishna guy you heard earlier.
00:13:02.000 And now this guy, Paul Kearney, you just played.
00:13:04.000 He's the head of Red Hat.
00:13:05.000 That's a subsidiary of IBM.
00:13:07.000 IBM owns Red Hat.
00:13:10.000 Indicates he's fired people who don't implement racial considerations in hiring.
00:13:15.000 He says, I could name leaders that we've held accountable to the point that they've been terminated because they're not willing to live up the standards.
00:13:23.000 So Krishna is knowing they're going to dock your bonus if you don't move racial considerations in the hiring.
00:13:30.000 And if IBM and Red Hat are using racial considerations in making their work environments diverse and doing so coercively by placing a burden on employees to do so by docking their pay terminating, there are Title VII violations here of the Civil Rights Act.
00:13:46.000 And like I said to you before the break, this is, I have never, I've been doing this for 20 years.
00:13:51.000 I'm 39 years old.
00:13:52.000 I have never seen a hundred plus people inside of a company or government organization reach out to me.
00:14:00.000 They're playing whack-a-mole.
00:14:01.000 They got they're leaking more than the Iraqi Navy right now.
00:14:04.000 I'm getting, as I speak to you, and Charlie, you've gotten a couple.
00:14:08.000 I'm getting slack messages.
00:14:09.000 I'm getting, I mean, people are pissed.
00:14:12.000 And there's a class action lawsuit here.
00:14:14.000 And it seems as though the CEO of IBM is on the ropes.
00:14:19.000 They are on defense.
00:14:20.000 And this is a really remarkable moment.
00:14:22.000 And I think perhaps a vision of what's to come in 2024 if people grow a pair and speak up and speak up in numbers.
00:14:30.000 Yeah.
00:14:31.000 So what are the next steps then for IBM?
00:14:33.000 This is obviously systemic racism and systemic behavior.
00:14:38.000 You said that Krishna responded.
00:14:40.000 What did he say?
00:14:42.000 Yeah, Krishna responded last night, Charlie, on an all-hands video that was again leaked to me by somebody else.
00:14:52.000 This is truly remarkable.
00:14:53.000 We live streamed the CEO of IBM talking about me.
00:14:57.000 Now, Charlie, he called me a journalist, which is remarkable.
00:14:59.000 I've never had a subject of my investigation calling me a journalist.
00:15:02.000 I wish the FBI would call me a journalist.
00:15:05.000 Right?
00:15:05.000 Yeah.
00:15:06.000 They did privately.
00:15:08.000 They did privately, not publicly.
00:15:10.000 So then Krishna says, well, you know, these are not targets.
00:15:14.000 They're goals.
00:15:15.000 Apparently, the law, there's something about the language there to target Asian Americans or something like that.
00:15:23.000 So Krishna called them goals as opposed to targets, which seems to me a distinction without a difference.
00:15:30.000 And he spends about five minutes defending himself.
00:15:32.000 But I think, Charlie, that's remarkable.
00:15:34.000 You know, what you do at Turning Point is you go on offense.
00:15:37.000 You take no prisoners.
00:15:39.000 You fight for what you believe in.
00:15:40.000 And I think it's a really positive sign to see a guy who's on the board of the Federal Reserve Bank and the CEO of IBM.
00:15:47.000 He is on defense talking to his entire company, trying to rationalize.
00:15:51.000 What's next is we need to keep on offense.
00:15:54.000 We need to keep the pressure on.
00:15:56.000 We need to keep revealing new revelations.
00:15:58.000 And we have more breaking today.
00:15:59.000 In fact, I have Slack messages on my iPad from within IBM that I intend to publish as soon as they get off your show.
00:16:06.000 I'm going to produce those and release them.
00:16:09.000 That's amazing.
00:16:09.000 So more and more whistleblowers are coming forward.
00:16:11.000 And I just want this to be clear.
00:16:13.000 If any, you could email me, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:16:15.000 Or what's your tip line, James?
00:16:16.000 More important, how do people contact you?
00:16:18.000 What's the tip line?
00:16:19.000 Just go to our website, O'KeefeMeanieGroup.com, or you can DM us on any of our social media.
00:16:23.000 Look, it's time to use the Alinsky rules.
00:16:25.000 You can see that James is peppering them in.
00:16:27.000 Keep the pressure on.
00:16:28.000 Find a target.
00:16:29.000 Isolate it.
00:16:30.000 Polarize it.
00:16:31.000 That's what we're doing.
00:16:32.000 Okay.
00:16:32.000 So who would have known on our bingo card?
00:16:34.000 IBM.
00:16:34.000 Okay.
00:16:35.000 They're kind of, you know, not Google.
00:16:37.000 They're not Facebook.
00:16:38.000 They're $150 billion company. 0.96
00:16:41.000 Let's bury them.
00:16:42.000 Okay. 0.97
00:16:43.000 They are engaging in anti-American.
00:16:46.000 They're running an anti-Western type thing.
00:16:49.000 This is caste system. 0.55
00:16:50.000 Well, it is run by an Indian foreigner.
00:16:52.000 So maybe that's where the caste system comes from. 0.97
00:16:54.000 But we have to bury this company.
00:16:55.000 Okay.
00:16:56.000 It is sick what they're doing.
00:16:58.000 And by the way, I'm getting emails from people, James, one after the other after the other.
00:17:02.000 People say, Charlie, we're for IBM, white male, that I lost my job.
00:17:05.000 No explanation.
00:17:06.000 Like, unbelievable.
00:17:07.000 Right.
00:17:07.000 And James, I'll send them to you.
00:17:09.000 And this is happening all throughout the tech world.
00:17:09.000 Wow.
00:17:11.000 Okay.
00:17:12.000 James, God bless you, man.
00:17:13.000 Thanks so much.
00:17:14.000 Thank you, Charlie, and stay tuned.
00:17:16.000 Thank you.
00:17:19.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
00:17:20.000 Exciting news to share about saving babies by providing ultrasounds.
00:17:23.000 Right now, there is a dollar-for-dollar match, doubling the number of babies you'll save with pre-born.
00:17:28.000 There are babies alive today about to celebrate their first Christmas because of what we did together a year ago at this time providing ultrasounds.
00:17:34.000 And right now, you can save twice as many babies.
00:17:37.000 Maybe you're already wondering about end of the year giving and want to give every dollar, get the most results.
00:17:42.000 Or maybe you just want to know that a girl making this decision deserves the truth.
00:17:45.000 So that next year at this time, she's picking out a Christmas stocking for her baby's first Christmas.
00:17:49.000 It's beautiful to think about.
00:17:50.000 Your gift of $15,000, somebody out there can do it.
00:17:53.000 I'm sure, will provide not one, but two ultrasound machines.
00:17:56.000 $280 saves 10 babies.
00:17:58.000 $28 a month saves a baby a month for less than a dollar a day.
00:18:01.000 And right now, any gift saves twice as many babies with pre-born.
00:18:04.000 I'm a donor to this organization.
00:18:06.000 We love this organization with the Kirk family.
00:18:08.000 Call 833-850-2229.
00:18:11.000 Full endorsement.
00:18:12.000 Amazing people.
00:18:13.000 Click on the pre-born banner at charliekirk.com.
00:18:15.000 Go to charliekirk.com right now and click on the pre-born banner.
00:18:21.000 Okay, we have political prisoners in this country.
00:18:24.000 So that again, we have political prisoners.
00:18:26.000 It's never happened in American history.
00:18:28.000 We now have political prisoners.
00:18:29.000 One of them joins us right now.
00:18:31.000 He's in the DC Gulag.
00:18:32.000 He only has a short window, a short period of time to call us.
00:18:36.000 Jake Lang right now is in the DC Gulag.
00:18:40.000 Jake, thank you for taking the time.
00:18:42.000 So just walk our audience through.
00:18:44.000 You've been in the DC Gulag for how long?
00:18:47.000 It's been nearly three years since January 6th, and you still have not had a trial.
00:18:51.000 Is that right?
00:18:52.000 Yeah.
00:18:53.000 Hey, Charlie, thanks for having me on, brother.
00:18:55.000 That is correct.
00:18:56.000 It's been 1,060 days.
00:18:59.000 I've been incarcerated most of that time in solitary confinement, all of this without a trial, without a chance to face my accusers and get an unbiased jury.
00:19:09.000 It's reprehensible.
00:19:10.000 Miscarriage of justice.
00:19:12.000 Yeah.
00:19:13.000 So, Jake, have you waived your right to a speedy trial or have your lawyers just, or is this really a three-year waiting period to get a trial?
00:19:23.000 We have not waived my right to a speedy trial without coercement by the government.
00:19:28.000 Basically, we're being coerced to make these decisions based upon the fact that I don't have my evidence.
00:19:34.000 They have not released the January 6th tapes yet in full.
00:19:38.000 It's been three years.
00:19:39.000 We've been waiting for this.
00:19:40.000 There is tons of evidence of police misconduct and of bad actors in the crowd.
00:19:46.000 And it seems every single month that we wait and that we're forced to wait.
00:19:51.000 It seems that on Epic Times or Real America's Voice or Gateway Punt, there's another new big headline coming out that there were federal agents involved in the crowd, that there was more police brutality and misconduct than anybody could have possibly imagined.
00:20:06.000 And if I went to trial, which I didn't really have the opportunity to, let's say three months after I was first arrested in January of 2021, I would have, I mean, literally 0% of the information that we currently have.
00:20:19.000 And in another six months, there will be even more information out.
00:20:22.000 And so it's a horrible scenario to be in.
00:20:26.000 But basically, you can't go to trial unless you have the evidence so that you can defend yourself, right, Charlie?
00:20:32.000 Well, yeah, obviously.
00:20:33.000 No.
00:20:34.000 I mean, Jake, I just wanted to let you know, it's so sick what's happening to you.
00:20:37.000 The website to help out is sponsorj6.com.
00:20:40.000 So, Jake, right now there is an appeal or there's a challenge going up to the United States Supreme Court that is going to, it's asking, has the Department of Justice used the statute of obstructing an official proceeding?
00:20:55.000 Have they been overusing that statute?
00:20:58.000 The 1512 obstruction of Congress charge is a 20-year max felony that 327 J Sixers and Donald Trump have been politically charged with and will be argued in front of the United States Supreme Court.
00:21:12.000 20 years for obstruction.
00:21:14.000 This is just insane.
00:21:16.000 Jake, what is your reaction about these, hopefully the promising developments?
00:21:21.000 And I hope our audience keeps the U.S. Supreme Court in your prayers.
00:21:24.000 The Supreme Court could come down and really level the playing field here against a weaponized DOJ.
00:21:30.000 Jake Lang.
00:21:31.000 100%.
00:21:31.000 I stand with that.
00:21:32.000 I mean, right now it's on the Supreme Court to restore the faith that the American people once had in Lady Liberty and Lady Justice being blind.
00:21:41.000 Right now, we've been so disenfranchised, seeing, you know, literally hundreds and hundreds of January 6ers being railroaded through the legal process, being sentenced to 17 years in prison, 15 years, 22 years. 0.54
00:21:54.000 I don't think the American people have ever had more mistrust in the federal government and in one of our most sacred institutions, the court system has been kind of like the beacon on the hill of America, that you can get a fair jury trial.
00:22:07.000 You can be exonerated of allegations against you.
00:22:10.000 Right now, as it stands in the federal district courts and in the federal courts in America, you cannot, if you are a Trump supporter, you cannot get a fair trial.
00:22:21.000 You cannot get a fair shake at your accusers.
00:22:24.000 And so right now, the Supreme Court, that's really what's at stake here, to restore the hope the American people and the trust the American people once had in one of our most sacred institutions, justice.
00:22:36.000 Jake, I'm sensing some hope in your voice.
00:22:38.000 I mean, you've been in jail for nearly three years without a trial.
00:22:42.000 There's some pep in your voice.
00:22:43.000 What is keeping you going?
00:22:45.000 And I hope everyone in the audience, if you think you're having a bad day, okay, Jake Lang is calling from a D.C. gulag as a political prisoner in the once-free United States of America.
00:22:54.000 So knock it off.
00:22:55.000 You're going to be having a much tougher day.
00:22:57.000 Jake, where's your mindset at?
00:23:00.000 What has given you hope?
00:23:02.000 Talk through how you are surviving in this gulag in D.C. right now.
00:23:08.000 Well, Charlie, you know, this situation that I find myself in has been predestined by our Father God in heaven.
00:23:17.000 And all of the January 6ers, the fact that we've been chosen by God to suffer for righteousness' sake is a great grace in his kingdom.
00:23:25.000 And so my hope and my drive and my perseverance comes from knowing that Jesus is with me through this, that this is kind of the allotment of a disciple.
00:23:35.000 This is what the actual, you know, if the world hates you, know that it hated me first.
00:23:40.000 This is what it looks like, the tangibility of being a Christian, of being a patriot in today's day and age.
00:23:47.000 You can't be a conservative constitutionalist and actually stand for the values that you believe in without being persecuted in this country.
00:23:55.000 So I'm doing my duty humbly as an American patriot to try to restore liberty to this country, just as I did on January 6th, standing up against a communist coup d'état where they were installing Joe Biden as the puppet regime leader bought and paid for by China. 0.68
00:24:11.000 We peacefully stood against that.
00:24:13.000 And I bring that same energy that God put in my heart that day to every single day I wake up in these prisons and I fight for the Jan 6ers doing these interviews, which I'm very grateful to be on this one. 0.75
00:24:23.000 It's a great platform you've built for yourself and you're a great Christian leader of men and women in this country.
00:24:28.000 And so, you know, I aspire to inspire other Christians out there that no persecution, no amount of torture, no amount of disenfranchisement, of the taking away of your rights and of your voice can ever take away that place that God has in your heart.
00:24:45.000 They can't touch that place.
00:24:47.000 They can stick you in a gulag.
00:24:48.000 They can put you in solitary confinement.
00:24:51.000 They can keep you away from your family for years.
00:24:53.000 I went 15 months without having the right to see or hug my mother and father, but they can't take away the spirit of God that lives inside you.
00:25:01.000 And so that's the message is that there is hope in the name of Jesus, and he lives inside those who call upon his name.
00:25:07.000 And he surely lives in my heart.
00:25:09.000 And I'm grateful to have him in the cell with me today and every day.
00:25:13.000 Well, amen.
00:25:14.000 And Jake, it is so wrong what is happening to you.
00:25:16.000 Just the psychological torture.
00:25:19.000 I mean, again, this is not equal justice.
00:25:21.000 Okay.
00:25:22.000 This is political persecution.
00:25:24.000 If you're watching this program and you're a Marxist or a communist, this should also anger you.
00:25:28.000 This is against every principle of Western society.
00:25:32.000 You do not suffer more because your politics are different than the regime consensus, period.
00:25:39.000 We don't live in that country unless we used to not live in that country, and we are right now.
00:25:43.000 Jake, I want to play a piece of tape from Vaikramaswamy.
00:25:46.000 The truth is starting to get out.
00:25:48.000 Play Cut 97.
00:25:50.000 If you had told me, it's close to three years ago that January 6th, 2021 happened.
00:25:54.000 If you had told me three years ago, back when I was a biotech CEO, if you had told me that January 6th was in any way an inside job, the subject of government entrapment, I would have told you that was crazy talk.
00:26:04.000 Fringe conspiracy theory nonsense.
00:26:07.000 I can tell you now, having gone somewhat deep in this, it's not.
00:26:12.000 The reality is we know that there were federal law enforcement agents in that field.
00:26:16.000 We don't know how many.
00:26:17.000 I think it's a shame.
00:26:18.000 If I may finish this answer, I'm going to go ahead and interrupt you here because there were federal agents there.
00:26:29.000 So, Jake, as you look back at the events on January 6th, and again, you're going to have to defend yourself for your conduct there, Jake.
00:26:37.000 All I'm going to say is that it's wrong that you're being treated the way you are, okay?
00:26:41.000 But now you look back, do you believe that this was largely a Fed operation to try to instigate and try and manipulate the crowd?
00:26:52.000 Jake Lang.
00:26:53.000 Charlie, it's very simple.
00:26:55.000 January 6th was orchestrated, a rashtag fire on the American people. 0.74
00:27:00.000 But at the same time, that same spirit that our founding fathers carried in their heart to stand against tyranny, that 1776 spirit was on the crowd.
00:27:08.000 Father God was with us that day.
00:27:10.000 We were standing up righteously.
00:27:12.000 None of us had violent or evil intentions that day.
00:27:15.000 We were there with the love of God and the love of our Constitution in our hearts.
00:27:19.000 The Capitol Police turned their weapons on an unarmed crowd, and young men like me had to make the rough decision to stand up and defend women.
00:27:27.000 You know, there was four people murdered that day, Charlie.
00:27:29.000 And so my conduct on January 6th, I stand by.
00:27:32.000 I'm proud to be a Jan 60.
00:27:34.000 Proud to be a 1776 patriot, but there's no doubt in my mind that January 6th was an orchestrated attack on the American people to steal away our liberty and label every Trump supporter and conservative out there domestic terrorists.
00:27:48.000 That's what the plan was.
00:27:49.000 They've succeeded with that plan.
00:27:51.000 But now God brings truth to light.
00:27:54.000 And so we're seeing even people like Vivek, who come from the background of a tech CEO in Silicon Valley.
00:28:01.000 He's standing up for us.
00:28:03.000 We have more people supporting us now than ever.
00:28:05.000 And I believe the day of vindication is coming for me and all my January 6th political hostages of the Joe Biden regime.
00:28:14.000 So Jake, I just want this.
00:28:16.000 Look, this January 6th day, they've turned into Pearl Harbor and they've turned it into like this day that will live in infamy.
00:28:23.000 Okay.
00:28:24.000 And there are so many people that are being caught up in this that are being destroyed and their spirit is trying to be broken.
00:28:30.000 Jake, were you ever put in solitary confinement in the last three years?
00:28:35.000 I'm in a solitary confinement 8x10 cell as I talk to you right now.
00:28:39.000 I got a little tablet.
00:28:40.000 They extort you $3 per hour to use it to make phone calls.
00:28:44.000 And so I'm calling you.
00:28:45.000 I'm sitting inside my cell right now, Charlie, in the basement of Washington, D.C. jail in a unit that is designed for terrorists.
00:28:54.000 This is what they do.
00:28:55.000 They segregate the population for the most dangerous criminals.
00:28:58.000 I have no criminal background.
00:29:00.000 I've seen three birthdays coming up on my fourth birthday in prison.
00:29:04.000 I've seen three Thanksgivings, three Christmases about to come and gone without my chance to even have a trial.
00:29:10.000 This is, like I said, this is a miscarriage of justice that I believe every American can stand beside and say, you know, three years is long enough.
00:29:18.000 These guys' conduct at the Capitol getting riled up and making sure that our country wasn't taken over by tyrants is not to be punished with three years of solitary confinement.
00:29:29.000 I mean, this is disgusting.
00:29:30.000 And so I didn't know that.
00:29:35.000 I hope everyone understands that solitary confinement is one of the sickest forms of torture you could put on anybody.
00:29:41.000 Okay, this is pretrial detention stuff.
00:29:44.000 And they put Jake Lang in a, I don't care if you hate Jake Lang with every fiber of your being.
00:29:49.000 That's torture.
00:29:50.000 So, Jake, keep close to Jesus.
00:29:52.000 Keep close to God.
00:29:53.000 And I really hope justice will end up being served.
00:29:56.000 And look, Jake, I know that there's a lot of controversy about what you did or didn't do, but the way they're treating you on January 6th is so wrong.
00:30:05.000 It's so reprehensible.
00:30:07.000 And the way that they have unequally used the force of government is one of the great injustices in our country.
00:30:13.000 Jake, I'll be praying for you.
00:30:14.000 You have.
00:30:15.000 And I think we're out of time now.
00:30:17.000 All right, Jake, thanks so much.
00:30:19.000 Yes, Charlie, God bless you guys.
00:30:20.000 Please go to sponsorj6.com to support the Jam Fixers this Christmas.
00:30:24.000 It means the world to us.
00:30:26.000 We appreciate you, Charlie Kirk.
00:30:27.000 God bless.
00:30:28.000 I hope to meet you one day, Jake.
00:30:29.000 Thank you.
00:30:31.000 You heard that little thing over the air?
00:30:34.000 That was the end of his window to make a phone call.
00:30:36.000 What kind of country are you living in?
00:30:38.000 You might say, oh, I don't like what Jake did that day.
00:30:40.000 Jake might have done some stuff that he would regret.
00:30:40.000 You might be right.
00:30:43.000 He might have broke some windows.
00:30:43.000 Okay.
00:30:44.000 They say, oh, he had a bat and all that.
00:30:45.000 I'm not going to defend that.
00:30:46.000 I don't like rioting.
00:30:47.000 I don't like looting.
00:30:48.000 You don't put somebody in solitary confinement.
00:30:50.000 It's sick.
00:30:50.000 It's Mao.
00:30:51.000 That is a struggle session, pure communism.
00:30:54.000 It's unacceptable. 0.98
00:30:55.000 It is disgusting.
00:30:56.000 We still have constitutional rights, even if you do something that is not great.
00:31:00.000 Okay?
00:31:04.000 You've never lived through political prisoners before.
00:31:06.000 And now you have.
00:31:07.000 And the lack of Republican concern towards political prisoners is just jaw-dropping.
00:31:13.000 Oh, they did something we don't like, and we're not going to fight for them.
00:31:13.000 It's eye-opening.
00:31:17.000 They do this as a show trial.
00:31:19.000 There's a reason why I think they're okay with Jake having a phone.
00:31:21.000 First of all, just small concessions.
00:31:24.000 But him going on the Charlie Kirk show.
00:31:27.000 Why would the regime be okay with him going on the Charlie Kirk show?
00:31:30.000 Yeah, you know, they're talking about the injustice.
00:31:32.000 But what's the buried lead?
00:31:34.000 It's that if you act out of line and you have bad politics, you're going to end up like Jake Lang.
00:31:39.000 They're perfectly fine with that.
00:31:41.000 In fact, it sends a message.
00:31:42.000 You better obey.
00:31:43.000 You better not donate that money.
00:31:45.000 You better not show up to Amfest.
00:31:46.000 We're going to follow you. 0.96
00:31:47.000 We're going to hunt you down. 0.87
00:31:49.000 Three years in solitary confinement.
00:31:51.000 By the way, solitary confinement has been considered cruel and unusual.
00:31:56.000 The ACLU used to write pieces all the time, solitary confinement, unless it was for the protection.
00:32:01.000 Now, they might be putting Jake Lang there under the excuse, oh, we're there to protect you from other inmates because they might stab you to death.
00:32:06.000 Hold on a second.
00:32:07.000 You could let guys out.
00:32:08.000 You could do all sorts of different things.
00:32:10.000 That's logistically insane.
00:32:11.000 Solitary confinement.
00:32:12.000 By the way, there's a very, I'm not the biggest, I'm not the biggest follower of Mr. Beast.
00:32:18.000 Do you guys know Mr. Beast?
00:32:19.000 I'm sure everyone does.
00:32:20.000 He's the biggest YouTuber.
00:32:21.000 He does crazy wild stuff.
00:32:23.000 He's very, very talented, extremely talented.
00:32:25.000 A little too clickbaity for me.
00:32:26.000 But there's a video of Mr. Beast recently where he does this.
00:32:31.000 He's insanely rich.
00:32:32.000 He buys like a grocery store or something.
00:32:35.000 And so this latest one is he pays a guy $10,000 a day to live in a grocery store alone without his family, without any sort of social contact.
00:32:46.000 $10,000 a day.
00:32:48.000 The video is chilling.
00:32:49.000 And Mr. Beast doesn't have a political agenda.
00:32:53.000 But his whole point was that how long could you survive, even if you were earning $10,000 a day living in a grocery store alone?
00:33:03.000 How long do you think you could survive?
00:33:04.000 And the video is unbelievable.
00:33:05.000 This guy loses his mind, basically.
00:33:08.000 He becomes like a carcass of his former self.
00:33:11.000 Even though I think he was able to still call people, I can't remember.
00:33:15.000 But he was earning $10,000 a day.
00:33:17.000 He's like, oh, I'm going to make it a year.
00:33:18.000 I'm going to make all the money.
00:33:19.000 And Mr. Beast, you know, he could play.
00:33:20.000 He could pay it.
00:33:21.000 He was making $10,000 a day in a grocery store, needing and wanting for nothing.
00:33:25.000 I mean, he had a bathroom.
00:33:26.000 He had a restroom.
00:33:28.000 I mean, Mr. Beast did do some stuff where he turned the lights off.
00:33:31.000 But to be fair, though, a lot of these solitary confinement, like Jake Lang, it's an 8x10 thing, okay?
00:33:37.000 You're an 8x10 cubicle.
00:33:39.000 We're going to post this video at charliekirk.com.
00:33:41.000 We might be able to get some clips of it.
00:33:42.000 It might be too late.
00:33:43.000 And you say, holy crow, here's a guy that's being paid $10,000 a day to be alone.
00:33:50.000 And many of you said, I could do it.
00:33:51.000 I could easily do it.
00:33:54.000 And after like six weeks, eight weeks, 10 weeks, you know, Mr. Beast demonstrates the inhumanity of solitary confinement.
00:34:05.000 There's a movie that does this in an unusually, really strong way, and that is Castaway.
00:34:11.000 Castaway, which basically is a FedEx commercial.
00:34:13.000 The whole thing is like FedEx boxes everywhere.
00:34:16.000 It's Tom Hanks, who's alone on an island.
00:34:18.000 And again, Tom Hanks is not exactly my favorite person, but it's very, very powerful of what happens because we are a social creature.
00:34:26.000 We are social.
00:34:27.000 It's not good for man to be alone.
00:34:30.000 The Bible says that explicitly.
00:34:32.000 And interestingly enough, man was not alone.
00:34:34.000 Man had God.
00:34:36.000 God created something else for man because we are inherently social.
00:34:41.000 So Adam had God.
00:34:43.000 God considered man to be alone if there was not another human being alongside of it.
00:34:48.000 That's where Jake Lang is right now.
00:34:50.000 Jake Lang showed up on January 6th, did some stuff he's going to have to defend.
00:34:54.000 He's accusing some stuff I don't like.
00:34:56.000 Not the point.
00:34:58.000 And all of his constitutional rights go out, speedy trial, solitary confinement.
00:35:03.000 He's being tortured by the government.
00:35:04.000 We're just supposed to take it.
00:35:06.000 No, this is against every principle.
00:35:08.000 By the way, if there was a Marxist who was in solitary pretrial defense, you know, whatever, I would say that's inhumane.
00:35:16.000 We're not going to put up with it.
00:35:19.000 Even earning $10,000 a day, solitary confinement could crush your soul.
00:35:24.000 Right now, January 6th, Trump supporters are in solitary confinement, being tortured by our once-free country.
