00:01:36.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:45.000 Thank you for all the wonderful birthday wishes.
00:01:48.000 It is true.
00:01:49.000 Everyone gets older, and I'm honored to continue to fight alongside so many of you.
00:01:53.000 So thank you for that.

00:02:00.000 That would be a great birthday gift.
00:02:01.000 So you take out your podcast app, you type Charlie Kirk Show, and you subscribe.
00:02:05.000 Just consider that to be a birthday gift to the Charlie Kirk Show, and we deeply appreciate it.
00:02:10.000 As we mentioned yesterday, I could feel it in my bones.
00:02:13.000 I could see it in real time.
00:02:14.000 There is a cataclysmic shift happening.
00:02:17.000 And the question is, is it really a shift or is it now only beginning to surface?
00:02:21.000 I think it's a mixture of both.
00:02:23.000 Democrats are collapsing.
00:02:24.000 Republicans are ascending.
00:02:26.000 The base is consolidating.
00:02:27.000 Enthusiasm and energy is building.
00:02:29.000 Our candidates are more focused on the message.
00:02:32.000 Democrats in their electoral spending strategy have gone all in on one issue, abortion, which does matter to some voters and can be a wedge issue in some communities, but is becoming less and less so as the economy craters, as inflation increases, as people get poor, the harder they work.
00:02:52.000 And that's usually a troubling sign, isn't it?
00:02:55.000 If you get poor the more you work, you're probably standing on some very shaky and fragile ground.
00:03:04.000 You look at all the different things that the Democrats have tried over the last couple of months.
00:03:08.000 And this is why this program matters so much.
00:03:10.000 This is why you matter so much.
00:03:11.000 And thank you for supporting us.
00:03:13.000 Thank you for backing us.
00:03:14.000 COVID and the entire rancor around that, that didn't work.
00:03:18.000 The, let's just say, over-the-top reaction to monkeypox, that didn't work.
00:03:22.000 Getting everyone on board to go send weapons and arms to Ukraine, that didn't work.
00:03:26.000 Roe versus Wade, that isn't working.
00:03:29.000 Forgiving student loans via a massive taxpayer bribe didn't work.
00:03:35.000 And we're seeing it now in the generic ballot.
00:03:37.000 Rasmussen Reports has come out and they say that Republicans lead in the generic ballot by seven points.
00:03:44.000 That could end up being 10 points or 12 points.
00:03:46.000 And we've seen it on this program.
00:03:47.000 Things have been happening gradually.
00:03:50.000 Then suddenly independents, people in suburban communities are going to be coming in great numbers and massive direction, defecting against the Democrat Party.
00:04:01.000 We're seeing it all across the board.
00:04:03.000 And here's the thing.
00:04:04.000 If you are the, let's pretend you are a Democrat consultant for a second.
00:04:09.000 Let's pretend you're a Democrat consultant and you have a bucket of money to deploy.
00:04:15.000 At some point, you've got to be honest with yourself.
00:04:18.000 At some point, if you are a Democrat consultant, you have to realize that you have a diminishing rate of return.
00:04:24.000 Election Day cannot come soon enough for Democrats.
00:04:27.000 For Republicans, we want to stretch out these next couple of weeks because the polling is showing us every day is an eternity in politics right now.
00:04:36.000 Democrats are trying to accelerate this.
00:04:38.000 They're like, we can't get this over quick enough.
00:04:41.000 Now, a good rule in politics is the people that want Election Day to come sooner usually lose.
00:04:49.000 That's not always true.
00:04:51.000 Sometimes candidates get late hot.
00:04:53.000 Sometimes things change.
00:04:54.000 But Democrats right now are freaking out that the trajectory and the current momentum is totally disfavorable to them.
00:05:03.000 And we see this at every single corner and every turn.
00:05:07.000 And now the Democrats have a new strategy.
00:05:10.000 The New York Times, which I read so you don't have to, right here, the front page of the New York Times, which by the way, the New York Times, I don't like racializing things.
00:05:22.000 I don't.
00:05:23.000 I can't stand racial identity, tribal politics.
00:05:26.000 But what percentage of readers of the New York Times are upper-middle-class white liberals?
00:05:33.000 I would venture a guess at least 80 to 90%.
00:05:37.000 80 to 90. 0.95
00:05:37.000 I almost guarantee you the core reliable demographic of the people that read this garbage are upper middle class college educated liberals. 0.95
00:05:46.000 Yes, I read the New York Times. 0.97
00:05:47.000 I'm super smart.
00:05:49.000 Wrapping up case, January 6th panel plans a Trump subpoena.
00:05:54.000 This is what they now have.
00:05:56.000 They have failed at every single turn.
00:05:58.000 Now in the month of October, halfway through the month of October, where we are just days away from one of the most consequential midterm elections of our lifetime, their way of now having their big October surprise is to subpoena Donald Trump for what exactly?
00:06:16.000 Play cut 96, please.
00:06:18.000 I am offering this resolution that the committee direct the chairman to issue a subpoena for relevant documents and testimony under oath from Donald John Trump in connection with the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol.
00:06:36.000 That's Liz Cheney making the announcement that now the January 6th committee is going to use their resources, their taxpayer-funded resources, to go subpoena Donald Trump.
00:06:48.000 In the list of priorities for voters, what do you think, where do you think January 6th ends up for battleground voters in Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania?
00:06:59.000 They have nothing else.
00:07:01.000 They can't run on a record.
00:07:03.000 They can't run on governing.
00:07:04.000 They can't run on anything.
00:07:06.000 It is the total collapse of the Democrat Party.
00:07:09.000 And instead of trying to moderate their views, instead of trying to find some sort of messaging adjustment, it's, hey, let's go after the head of the snake.
00:07:17.000 And I believe this is only going to boost Democrat turnout.
00:07:21.000 And I'd love your thoughts, freedom, atcharlykirk.com.
00:07:23.000 The messages we've been receiving, the consensus I am seeing is that the more that they do this nonsense, the raiding of Mar-a-Lago, the arresting of Steve Bannon, the arresting of Peter Navarro, the arresting of Hauk and Vaughn, the two pro-life leaders, it only inspires us to go knock on more doors.
00:07:41.000 It only encourages us to go get more friends to go vote.
00:07:45.000 I think this is a Republican turnout operation, not a Democrat turnout operation.
00:07:51.000 This only gets more people to say this is the opposite of what government should be.
00:07:56.000 I think Liz Cheney calling for a subpoena is only going to rile us up even more to go vote to displace these people from power. 1.00
00:08:07.000 And January 6th is now the primary concern of the regime halfway through October.
00:08:14.000 And the recent polls are showing a collapse.
00:08:17.000 The Democrat Party is falling apart in front of our very eyes.
00:08:20.000 And again, it is not enough to win.
00:08:23.000 What does success look like?
00:08:24.000 A complete and total annihilation and extinction event of the modern woke Democrat Party.
00:08:32.000 We want to start a Democrat civil war.
00:08:34.000 We want to see them fight amongst themselves.
00:08:36.000 We want to see them go into bedlam.
00:08:38.000 We want to see them go into disagreement.
00:08:40.000 The same sort of energy that AOC experienced at her town hall where she was shouted down.
00:08:45.000 We want to see honest Democrats or formerly honest Democrats like Tulsi Gabbard hopefully have some role in the Democrat Party.
00:08:52.000 In fact, you're never going to totally get rid of Democrats, so at least the Democrats that exist, I hope, or love the country.
00:08:57.000 I think Tulsi Gabbard does.
00:09:00.000 And all across the board, we are seeing from poll after poll, Pennsylvania within the margin of error, Ron Johnson up big time in Wisconsin, JD Vance up in Ohio, Ted Budd up in North Carolina, Ron DeSantis up 10 points in Florida.
00:09:13.000 Now, I'm not saying we should be cocky.
00:09:14.000 I'm very worried about mail-in ballots and all this, but I'm telling you, we are going to overwhelm the system, but it's not enough.
00:09:24.000 We have got to have the shoulder to the wheel, full court press, 10 out of 10.
00:09:29.000 Because I'm telling you right now, the Democrats, they know they're on defense and they are scrambling.
00:09:34.000 The Democrat Party is now engaging in a recalibration.
00:09:40.000 They're running out of money quickly.
00:09:41.000 And by the way, the latest poll by Fox 10 here in Arizona, Carrie Lake up three points.
00:09:48.000 The latest poll for the Oregon governor's race, Drazen up six points.
00:09:53.000 I mean, you're starting to see a massive realignment here, and it's happening so quickly.
00:09:58.000 The Democrats, you see, their strategy was go raise all of this money.
00:10:03.000 Go raise all this money over the summer and spend it quickly.
00:10:06.000 And now their coffers are getting dry.
00:10:08.000 And Republicans kept their powder dry until they could see the white in the eyes, metaphorically, of course.
00:10:14.000 And now Republicans are outspending Democrats in some of these states, and it's going to happen very quickly.
00:10:22.000 Right now, Bank of America has just lowered its 2022 forecast for the S ⁇ P 500 by a whopping 900 points to 3,600.
00:10:32.000 Saying we're headed for a recession this year, it said the new year target is the lowest on the street.
00:10:37.000 This is not good news for those of you stuck in equities or anything tied to stock markets.
00:10:41.000 I know thousands of people who have put their trust in Noble Gold to prevent losing money and the financial storm that is brewing.
00:10:48.000 You can join them by calling their expert team.
00:10:50.000 Noble Gold has recently voted the number one gold company in the country by Consumer Affairs.
00:10:54.000 No call centers, no scripted response, no bull, just a straight, honest run through options so you can decide.
00:11:00.000 And by the way, they're giving away a beautiful 110th an ounce gold American Eagle coin with every qualifying IRA or 401k rollover this month.
00:11:08.000 You can't go wrong with Noble Gold.

00:11:20.000 Okay, I want to go through this story here.
00:11:21.000 House Democrats retrench as GOP money floods the map.
00:11:26.000 Henancy Pelosi is in complete and total panic right now, and she should be.
00:11:30.000 She is on defense and they are running out of time.
00:11:36.000 They're running out of time in many different ways because we are 25 days out, and Nancy Pelosi is starting to do what any sort of losing general in a war has to do: retreat and protect the assets you can't lose. 1.00
00:11:49.000 Politico.com, House Democrats retrench as GOP money floods the map.
00:11:53.000 The party isn't airing ads in six of the 14 GOP districts Joe Biden carried in 2020 as it directs money to help incumbents under threat.
00:12:02.000 And it goes through and talks about some of these races.
00:12:04.000 Meanwhile, House Republican super PAC crosses $200 million in midterm spending.
00:12:10.000 I feel a lot better about the House than I do about the Senate.
00:12:13.000 The Senate, I'm feeling better and better about, but the House is looking great.
00:12:17.000 And these House races are, you know, one step forward, two step back.
00:12:21.000 It's very much trench warfare.
00:12:24.000 And we are now starting to see the entire map expand when it comes to these House races. 0.97
00:12:29.000 And the Driple C is pulling out of critical races in Arizona, in Georgia, in Texas. 0.96
00:12:36.000 They don't have the money. 0.64
00:12:38.000 It is a shrinking target list.
00:12:41.000 Democrats have known their campaign chief, Representative Sean Patrick Maloney, would be forced to make different decisions, difficult decisions, I'm sorry, to prioritize some races over others.
00:12:52.000 Meaningful party spending has not begun and is unlikely to start in Tom O'Halloran's district in Arizona.
00:12:58.000 And other three open Democrat held districts in Wisconsin, Michigan, and South Texas are trending away from the party.
00:13:05.000 But some lawmakers and strategists say they're still worried about not being able to spend on offense.
00:13:10.000 For instance, Democrats are spending on TV to aid roughly half of the three dozen candidates the DCC designated as party's most formidable challenges.
00:13:18.000 And the lack of investment to target Republicans in Biden won seats is particularly noticeable.
00:13:25.000 Representative Tony Cardenas in California, who joined Alex Padilla, Senator Alex Padilla from California at a campaign event, said he was optimistic she would win, but acknowledged the deluge of Republican cash.
00:13:37.000 It's happening all across the country.
00:13:39.000 It is completely flipped.
00:13:41.000 The 2022 congressional generic ballot is trending up 3% since the end of September.
00:13:50.000 And you're starting to see it at every single front.
00:13:54.000 So you see it at realclearpolitics.com, the moving average in Wisconsin, in Nevada, in North Carolina, in Ohio, all coming in our direction.
00:14:06.000 And you should ask the question why.
00:14:07.000 Well, what is the Democrats' response to this?
00:14:10.000 You know, the Democrats are now going to subpoena Donald Trump for that spectacle.
00:14:14.000 And kind of inexplicably, there's this new footage that shows Nancy Pelosi, who had a documentary team with her on January 6th.
00:14:25.000 Why?
00:14:26.000 Why would Nancy Pelosi embed a documentary team filmed by Alexandra Pelosi, her daughter, who's a documentary filmmaker, during January 6th? 1.00
00:14:36.000 That's really bizarre.
00:14:37.000 Did she know something was going to happen that day?
00:14:39.000 So she refuses the National Guard troops.
00:14:43.000 We know about Ray Epps, or at least I think we know a little about Ray Epps.
00:14:47.000 And so let's play some tape here.
00:14:49.000 This is the one, okay, this is cut 88.
00:14:52.000 It's very bizarre.
00:14:54.000 Nancy Pelosi on January 6th talking about, I hope Trump comes. 0.99
00:14:59.000 I'm going to punch him out. 0.98
00:15:00.000 This is my moment. 0.99
00:15:01.000 I've been waiting for this for trespassing on the Capitol grounds. 0.99
00:15:05.000 I'm going to punch him out. 0.97
00:15:06.000 I'm going to go to jail and I'm going to be happy. 0.99
00:15:09.000 That sounds like political violence, doesn't it?
00:15:11.000 Could you imagine if there was a piece of tape of Donald Trump saying, I'm going to punch Nancy Pelosi out, which is the party of political violence now, which is the party of domestic violent extremism?
00:15:24.000 Play cut 88.
00:15:29.000 They're waiting for this.
00:15:31.000 For trespassing on the catalog. 0.99
00:15:33.000 I'm going to punch him out. 1.00
00:15:34.000 I'm going to go to jail, girl. 1.00
00:15:37.000 This is my moment.
00:15:39.000 You've been waiting for the moment to put Donald Trump in jail.
00:15:42.000 By the way, why is this footage just coming out now?
00:15:44.000 It's very strange.
00:15:46.000 Do they think this makes her look good?
00:15:48.000 Does it inspire the Democrat base?
00:15:52.000 Remember what Eric Holder said?
00:15:53.000 When they go low, we kick them.
00:15:55.000 And yet they say we are the party of domestic violent extremists.
00:15:58.000 I have zero patience for that.
00:16:00.000 Just go to a turning point USA campus event and tell me who are the ones that are engaged in dialogue and discussion and who are the ones that are trying to use force to shut the other side up.
00:16:09.000 It's always the left.
00:16:10.000 Always.
00:16:11.000 You want to talk about the great lie?
00:16:13.000 The great lie is this idea that the right is somehow domestic violent extremists.
00:16:20.000 Look, the world is in total chaos and it's going to cause massive food shortages like we've never seen.
00:16:26.000 Are you prepared?

00:17:16.000 Okay, I want to get to a story here that shouldn't be political at all, but it really bothered me when I saw it.
00:17:21.000 And it's going completely and totally, it's viral in every capacity imaginable.
00:17:26.000 So there is a very beautiful painting by Vincent Van Gogh, his sunflowers painting, that many of you are familiar with.
00:17:33.000 Vincent Van Gogh, an unbelievably talented artist, was an unbelievably talented artist.
00:17:39.000 He believed that art, or more generally, work, like religion, was a way to have communion with God.
00:17:48.000 He was not a postmodernist.
00:17:49.000 He was somebody that, in some way, shape, or form, tried to glorify God with his work.
00:17:55.000 I'm not an expert on Van Gogh by any means whatsoever, nor am I an expert in art in the 1800s.
00:18:02.000 But his stuff is beautiful and it's well respected, and it's an important part of the Western tradition and definitely worthy of respect.
00:18:09.000 And here's kind of my approach when it comes to art that was created before the 1900s.
00:18:19.000 If I don't initially understand it, or if it doesn't move me at the first viewing or glance, then I'm probably missing something.
00:18:30.000 Now, I think that's completely different with postmodern garbage, post-1920s, where if somebody trashed a postmodern piece of art, most people would not even realize it's vandalism.
00:18:42.000 For example, the signed urinal of the trickster, what was that guy's name that did that?
00:18:47.000 It always escapes me.
00:18:49.000 Something in the 1920s, where it's kind of the beginning of postmodern art, where it's my truth, and this is beautiful.
00:18:54.000 And then you get the, yeah, Duchamp.
00:18:57.000 Thank you.
00:18:59.000 You get the crucifix in urine.
00:19:02.000 I mean, postmodern art is not art. 1.00
00:19:04.000 It's trash. 1.00
00:19:04.000 It's garbage. 1.00
00:19:06.000 And so, but before that, Van Gogh, again, I'm not someone who spends a lot of time dwelling on it, but it's beautiful. 0.98
00:19:13.000 It's part of the Western tradition.
00:19:14.000 It's something that is worthy of appreciation and study.
00:19:17.000 What was he trying to communicate through art?
00:19:19.000 Art touches the soul, whether it be paintings or poetry or Handel's Messiah or Beethoven's Fifth.
00:19:28.000 And so, anyway, with all that kind of as a pretext, this goes to show exactly who the left is.
00:19:37.000 It's one of the most accurate pictures I have ever seen of what happens when you send your kid to university, of the lack of gratitude, the lack of appreciation.
00:19:47.000 And I saw this firsthand when I went to UT Austin a couple of days ago.
00:19:53.000 They say there's no truth, there's no beauty.
00:19:55.000 The West is systemically racist and colonialist.
00:20:02.000 And so today, this story came out. 0.97
00:20:05.000 The way the media is covering this story is so ridiculously reckless and irresponsible.
00:20:10.000 Climate protesters throw soup on Van Gogh's sunflowers painting.
00:20:16.000 Two activists who I think are young ladies, but I don't want to assume their gender threw tomato soup on the sunflowers painting of Vincent Van Gogh. 0.99
00:20:29.000 And then they give some explanation as to why.
00:20:34.000 This is in a museum.
00:20:36.000 I want to play the tape of this.
00:20:37.000 What cut is that we have here?
00:20:40.000 Yes, thank you.
00:20:40.000 Let's play cut 87.
00:20:43.000 What is worth more?
00:20:45.000 Art or life?
00:20:48.000 Is it worth more than food?
00:20:50.000 Worth more than justice?
00:20:53.000 Are you more concerned about the protection of a painting or the protection of our planet and people?
00:21:01.000 The cost of living crisis is part of the cost of oil crisis.
00:21:06.000 Fuel is unaffordable to millions of cold, hungry families.
00:21:12.000 They can't even afford to heat a tin of soup. 0.98
00:21:18.000 This is what happens when you elevate complete buffoons like Greta Thunberg. 1.00
00:21:22.000 You get all sorts of invite, you get this civilizational terrorism like this. 0.98
00:21:27.000 And yes, that's what I'm going to call it.
00:21:28.000 You go after a beautiful piece of work like Vincent Van Gogh's sunflowers that is adored by millions of people and his work and his canon, and you throw tomato soup at that.
00:21:38.000 And I'll just show the tape here.
00:21:40.000 We got it?
00:21:41.000 Okay, this is them throwing tomato soup.
00:21:43.000 They might as well throw tomato soup at the entire West. 0.96
00:21:46.000 And by the way, that's what they believe.
00:21:48.000 Play cut 101.
00:22:02.000 That should make you sick.
00:22:05.000 Again, I'm going to say that again.
00:22:06.000 That's an act of civilizational terrorism.
00:22:08.000 It is.
00:22:10.000 You go after the treasured pieces of art that communicate beauty, at least the attempt to get into alignment with objective reality and beauty.
00:22:19.000 For what?
00:22:20.000 You say, what's more important?
00:22:21.000 Art or life?
00:22:22.000 Of course, life is more important than art.
00:22:24.000 The heck does that have to do with going in and throwing tomato soup?
00:22:27.000 Art communicates the need for a beautiful life.
00:22:31.000 This is the woke mind virus, and they're going to be elevated as heroes by many people.
00:22:37.000 And it's just, you really look at what happens right now in the West and what is happening in the West.
00:22:43.000 Why?
00:22:43.000 They don't believe in any sort of objective standards.
00:22:45.000 And I got to be honest, I think this is going to backfire amongst a lot of different people.
00:22:51.000 I can't imagine an independent voter in America, an independent-minded person that has some sort of reverence for Vincent Van Gogh, is going to wake up and see this and say, oh, yeah, you know, you go, climate activists, go destroy some of the great work of the West.
00:23:09.000 And why are they doing this?
00:23:10.000 Because it was an oil painting.
00:23:14.000 And that really goes to show the levels of protest.
00:23:17.000 And it's not protest, as I said before.
00:23:19.000 It's civilizational arson, is what it is, that the left is willing to go to do.
00:23:25.000 That is the level they are willing to engage in.
00:23:30.000 And by the way, they're probably already out without bail because of our criminal justice thing.
00:23:36.000 Now, this happened in the United Kingdom, obviously.
00:23:38.000 It's at the National Gallery of London.
00:23:41.000 But let's just be very clear.
00:23:42.000 Beauty repulses them.
00:23:45.000 They must make the world as ugly as they are, both outside and inside.
00:23:49.000 They don't believe that beauty is an objective thing worth wondering.
00:23:56.000 That's the first line of Aristotle's metaphysics.
00:23:59.000 Our team can pull it up.
00:24:00.000 All men yearn to wonder.
00:24:03.000 I'm paraphrasing, of course.
00:24:05.000 But there's something in us that is beyond explanation at times.
00:24:11.000 I believe it's a soul that wonders at beauty.
00:24:14.000 What is beauty?
00:24:15.000 That which is perfected in being.
00:24:18.000 That's right.
00:24:19.000 Yes, that's right.
00:24:20.000 The first line of Aristotle's metaphysics.
00:24:22.000 All men by nature desire to know.
00:24:25.000 That's right.
00:24:27.000 All men.
00:24:28.000 Do you think that these young ladies that do this and they throw tomato soup on that, do you think that that is their desiring to know? 0.65
00:24:35.000 Now, some of you might say, Charlie, why are you spending so much time on this?
00:24:38.000 This is a metaphor for what the left will do when they get power.
00:24:43.000 Anything that is beautiful, they will destroy.
00:24:45.000 Anything.
00:24:47.000 As Dennis Prager beautifully puts it, the left destroys everything it touches, from professional sports to classical music to the college to the American family.
00:24:57.000 They have not built a thing.
00:24:59.000 The left builds nothing. 0.99
00:25:02.000 They are a parasitic group of locusts that have done unbelievable damage to the American West. 0.99
00:25:10.000 From architecture to anything that glorifies the divine, they must destroy it. 0.98
00:25:18.000 And of course, the left hates God, so there's no surprise that they hate art and beauty.
00:25:23.000 That should just make you sick.
00:25:26.000 And the media is saying, oh, yeah, you know, climate change is more important than art.
00:25:31.000 That's not even the point here.
00:25:33.000 The point is you're going to go destroy somebody's contribution to the West contribution to the ability to express oneself in a very beautiful way, might I add?
00:25:45.000 And then, you know, it's so funny.
00:25:46.000 She says, well, fuel is unaffordable.
00:25:50.000 And her shirt says, just say no to oil. 1.00
00:25:53.000 Oh, really?
00:25:53.000 Which one is it?
00:25:54.000 Do you want to be able to have people that have energy or not?
00:25:57.000 You see, it's always the left's impulse to destroy.
00:26:01.000 The left is humiliated by the greatness of what came before them.
00:26:05.000 The left can't ever admit that something that is worthy of appreciation existed before them.
00:26:12.000 These are narcissists, these two young ladies, I think they're women, that throw tomato soup on that. 1.00
00:26:18.000 And isn't that just a depicture and a metaphor of what they're trying to do to our entire civilization? 0.98
00:26:25.000 I'm the most important person.
00:26:28.000 And by the way, it's a very reasonable question.
00:26:31.000 Why are you saying no to oil?
00:26:34.000 And the ironic part is when you look about, when you think about it, that if you actually had natural gas and you had access to clean and cheap energy, then people would be able to afford more things.
00:26:46.000 It's your green energy environmentalist agenda that's hurting people.
00:26:50.000 That's too reasonable for them.
00:26:53.000 So this is going completely viral and it should.
00:26:55.000 It should really repulse people.
00:26:57.000 And we've entered into this moment where they go after the most beautiful things.
00:27:05.000 If you don't want to accidentally take a laxative and have the worst day of your life, listen carefully.
00:27:11.000 If you're currently taking a magnesium supplement, chances are you're literally flushing it down the toilet.
00:27:16.000 Look, I've been taking magnesium for a while, and I used to make this mistake.
00:27:19.000 And let's just say, if you don't take the right magnesium, yeah, you're going to have some problems.
00:27:24.000 And so, look, the most common type of magnesium is actually used as a laxative.
00:27:28.000 So, if you're taking it, you're just, let's just say, not getting your money's worth.
00:27:33.000 Look, you need magnesium.
00:27:34.000 Your body needs it for muscle recovery.
00:27:35.000 Helps you relax.
00:27:36.000 I take magnesium every single night before bed, and you should too.
00:27:40.000 I know maybe some of you guys are on sleep medication, all that.
00:27:44.000 Okay, putting that aside, have you tried magnesium?
00:27:46.000 Some of you are probably like, I can't fall asleep.
00:27:48.000 Try magnesium.
00:27:48.000 It's all, here's what I love about magnesium: your body needs it.
00:27:52.000 Your body just totally uses it for all sorts of different types of production.
00:27:57.000 It's critical and it helps you sleep.
00:27:59.000 Look, if you're taking the wrong type of magnesium, well, then your metabolism suffers, you can't lose weight, your blood pressure goes up, and a whole lot more.
00:28:07.000 Your metabolic rate is directly correlated at times to your magnesium.
00:28:11.000 So, what's a solution?
00:28:12.000 It's called magnesium breakthrough.
00:28:13.000 It's my favorite magnesium product that I continue to highly recommend.
00:28:17.000 It's the only full-spectrum magnesium supplement with seven unique forms of magnesium that your body can actually absorb.
00:28:22.000 And this month, they're including free bottles of their free line of digestive health products on select orders.
00:28:27.000 That means you're getting free products to try that will support your digestive system.

00:29:04.000 Magbreakthrough.com/slash Kirk.
00:29:09.000 For those of you that in the audience that might support sending money to Ukraine, thank you for listening.
00:29:13.000 Disagreement is always welcome here.
00:29:15.000 I love disagreement.
00:29:16.000 I invite it.
00:29:17.000 You can always email us your disagreement, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:29:20.000 I will read the emails.
00:29:21.000 I might respond.
00:29:22.000 I might read them on air.
00:29:23.000 So, you know, make the best argument you can.
00:29:25.000 Respectful disagreement is what keeps a society interesting, functioning, and flourishing.
00:29:30.000 You need to be able to disagree because I learned something and you push against the premise.
00:29:34.000 And so, if you are in the camp where you say, Charlie, I fully support sending money to Ukraine, fine.
00:29:40.000 Okay.
00:29:41.000 That's a disagreement.
00:29:42.000 I will ask, though, how much is too much money?
00:29:46.000 And we asked that question from the senator of North Dakota, a very nice and decent man who I believe has a lot of integrity, Senator Kramer.
00:29:53.000 And he came on this program and I'm paraphrasing, but he said something of the, I don't know if there is a limit.
00:29:58.000 And that's not a responsible answer, in my opinion.
00:30:02.000 And I say that with a lot of respect for him because we agree on most issues.
00:30:07.000 But does Zelensky have a claim over the U.S. Treasury?
00:30:12.000 For those of you that think and support what's happening in Ukraine and the money that we're pumping into Ukraine, do you ever pause for a moment and believe, hmm, maybe there is a greater priority we could be investing in here domestically?
00:30:27.000 Just a question.
00:30:28.000 Do you think that there is maybe something that is more important to our needs, wants, and interests to your kids' future than a proxy war, a very messy and murky proxy war, halfway across the world? 0.93
00:30:42.000 And I could tell you from talking to the grassroots to regular everyday people, people are much more concerned about our schools and our borders being protected than giving armaments to Zelensky.
00:30:56.000 Tucker Carlson had one of the most, I think, sharp takedowns of Zelensky in recent memory, where Zelensky is now going and demanding more of your money.
00:31:07.000 Zelensky says, I want more money.
00:31:09.000 We don't have enough.
00:31:10.000 We need more aid.
00:31:12.000 We need more U.S. dollars.
00:31:14.000 We don't have enough.
00:31:16.000 It's not going to stop.
00:31:18.000 We're going to want more and more aid.
00:31:20.000 Where is all this money going?
00:31:21.000 There's no accountability, by the way.
00:31:23.000 Where's the congressional oversight?
00:31:25.000 Are any of these arms falling into the hands of our super enemies?
00:31:32.000 Are some of these weapons being trafficked in the black market?
00:31:35.000 These are all very legitimate questions.
00:31:37.000 Here's a question for the U.S. government.
00:31:39.000 What are they actively doing to try to broker peace in Ukraine?
00:31:42.000 That's a question.
00:31:44.000 What are they trying to do to actively broker peace in Ukraine?
00:31:44.000 Anything?
00:31:48.000 Tucker Carlson with a very sharp response, PlayCut 97.
00:31:50.000 The scope of this year's support should be not less than $5 billion.
00:31:58.000 What? 1.00
00:32:00.000 Some uppity foreigner in a t-shirt demanding money for his critical economic needs? 1.00
00:32:06.000 We have critical economic needs too, buddy. 1.00
00:32:08.000 Who are you, troll? 0.99
00:32:09.000 Go away. 0.99
00:32:10.000 Since when does that guy have a claim on our treasury?
00:32:10.000 What?
00:32:14.000 He has a claim on our treasury because the Republican Party has not made the moral argument of what a government exists to do, which is to serve your citizens first and foremost.
00:32:26.000 This is the neoliberal trap.
00:32:28.000 It's very easy to fall into it.
00:32:31.000 Neoliberalism makes you believe that your government transcends borders.
00:32:38.000 Neoliberalism enables your belief that you can go play nation builder in every corner of the country, regardless of cultural background, history, and likelihood to embrace Western values.
00:32:53.000 And by the way, the people pushing neoliberalism, I don't even know if they believe it, they do stand to make tons of money off of it.
00:33:00.000 The war machine is printing money, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin.
00:33:03.000 They'd love nothing more.
00:33:04.000 And then Zelensky says, well, our needs are $5 billion extra dollars.
00:33:08.000 How about we have $5 billion to build the U.S. border wall?
00:33:11.000 That would be a great start.
00:33:13.000 We can't get $5 billion for border patrol agents, but we can now send $75 billion more than the GDP of North Dakota to go support Zelensky.
00:33:23.000 And then he goes and just with this entitlement smug attitude, we need more money, pal.
00:33:28.000 Yeah, the U.S. government has created a surrogate state.
00:33:32.000 And by the way, so they end the war in Afghanistan and they go start a much more lucrative war now in Ukraine.
00:33:39.000 They just transferred one proxy subsidiary to the other.
00:33:43.000 It took them six months to realign their interests.
00:33:47.000 I really want a Republican Party that will put our country first.
00:33:53.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
