The Charlie Kirk Show - Rage Against the War Machine with Kash Patel and Tara Reade

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, Tana Charlie Kirk Show.

00:00:01.000 Biden visits Zelensky.

00:00:04.000 Kash Patel joins us to help us navigate that and more.

00:00:07.000 Email us your thoughts as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and support our program at charliekirk.com slash support.

00:00:14.000 Buckle up everybody here.

00:00:16.000 We go.

00:00:17.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:18.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

00:00:20.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:24.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:27.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:28.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:29.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:00:38.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:00:46.000 That's why we are here.

00:00:49.000 Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:00:54.000 Go to andrewandtodd.com, the wonderfulandrewandodd.com.

00:01:02.000 Your president is visiting his prized constituents in Ukraine.

00:01:08.000 Now, I have to say, many of you are fired up, and you should be.

00:01:11.000 Why is he not visiting Ohio?

00:01:13.000 Why is he not focusing on issues here domestically?

00:01:17.000 And that is the right sentiment.

00:01:19.000 However, the fact that we spent $100 billion in Ukraine, we're acting as if Ukraine is more like America than our own country.

00:01:27.000 Is it the 51st state?

00:01:29.000 That's a simple question.

00:01:30.000 But hey, I actually don't think it's a waste of time if you're doing the right thing when you go to visit Ukraine.

00:01:39.000 And Biden is doing the opposite of the right thing.

00:01:41.000 Yes, he should be visiting some of the catastrophes and disasters happening in our homeland first, but we're talking about what is neoliberalism.

00:01:49.000 Neoliberalism is caring more about the needs, wants, and concerns of foreigners than that of your own citizens.

00:01:58.000 Tyrants, dictators, and despots have a fetish for the needs, wants, and concerns of something that is foreign, and they really are disinterested in your life, in the life of an American.

00:02:14.000 So Biden is in the middle of the Ukrainian war zone.

00:02:17.000 And yes, I totally agree.

00:02:19.000 He should be in East Palestine. 1.00

00:02:20.000 He should be mobilizing FEMA.

00:02:22.000 He should be concerned about our own country.

00:02:26.000 But visiting Ukraine, I don't think is necessarily a waste of time.

00:02:31.000 If you are using the bully pulpit, if you are using American strength, if you are using the power of the presidency to broker peace.

00:02:41.000 If you are saying, hey, let's end this war.

00:02:45.000 Now, I believe Joe Biden does have deep-seated contempt for large parts of America.

00:02:51.000 I think he really does, I think he hates Midwest Trump America.

00:02:57.000 But all that aside, if you are going to visit Ukraine, if you're going to visit Eastern Europe in the middle of this proxy war that is about to hit a whole, it's about to enter a whole new chapter in about a week and a half.

00:03:10.000 It seems as if Putin is going to put his foot on the accelerator.

00:03:14.000 And what are we doing?

00:03:16.000 What is our government doing?

00:03:18.000 Well, Joe Biden is doing the exact opposite, and it's going to put America at risk.

00:03:23.000 It's going to put more of our money at risk.

00:03:25.000 And the most immediate and sad fact is that tens of thousands of people are going to unnecessarily die in the next couple of weeks.

00:03:35.000 But look, the question is, what is he there for?

00:03:38.000 Is he there to help broker a peace deal to calm things down?

00:03:41.000 Or is he there to act like gas on a flame and igniting a potential World War III?

00:03:48.000 Look, U.S. presidents have a good history of brokering peace.

00:03:53.000 One of my favorite examples is Teddy Roosevelt, who hosted the negotiations between Russia and Japan and ended the Russo-Japanese war.

00:04:02.000 He won a Nobel Peace Prize for that.

00:04:03.000 Remember, President Trump normalized relations between Israel and several Arab countries, and he did more than any other president to try and facilitate a thaw with North Korea.

00:04:14.000 So that's what we should be trying to do in Ukraine.

00:04:16.000 Instead, Joe Biden is doing the exact opposite.

00:04:20.000 He's doing the exact opposite because you see, neoliberalism and the machine that relies on neoliberal ideas of invading the world and inviting the world, that war machine is hungry.

00:04:32.000 After the war in Afghanistan is ended, after ISIS was destroyed by President Trump, you have to feed the beast.

00:04:40.000 And the beast sees endless profits in eastern Ukraine.

00:04:44.000 They see an amazing opportunity.

00:04:47.000 The appetite of the war machine of Raytheon and Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin and Boeing, they see a huge financial upside by continuing, accelerating, and expanding the carnage in eastern Ukraine and with Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

00:05:07.000 So Joe Biden is there right now.

00:05:09.000 What are we hearing from Joe Biden?

00:05:10.000 He said that we are going to support Ukraine for as long as it takes.

00:05:16.000 That means another year, another five years, another 10 years, and let's make sure we have our facts right.

00:05:23.000 I know we obviously have a very conservative audience, and I know based on your emails you send me, freedom at charliekirk.com, you are against the war in Ukraine, but several of your Republican senators and several of your Republican congressmen are the most enthusiastic advocates for this new endless war.

00:05:43.000 So this is not just Joe Biden.

00:05:46.000 This is both parties.

00:05:48.000 In fact, Republicans are pushing for even more aid in Ukraine.

00:05:53.000 Joe Biden in cut four, the United States will support Ukraine for as long as it takes.

00:05:59.000 There is no end date.

00:06:01.000 There is no limit.

00:06:03.000 Is Ukraine one of the states in our country?

00:06:07.000 Might as well be. 0.58

00:06:09.000 For neoliberals, they don't see borders.

00:06:13.000 Borders are an abstract concept.

00:06:15.000 We're all one world.

00:06:16.000 Play cut four.

00:06:18.000 Freedom is priceless.

00:06:22.000 It's worth fighting for for as long as it takes.

00:06:26.000 And that's how long we're going to be with you, Mr. President.

00:06:29.000 For as long as it takes.

00:06:32.000 We'll do it.

00:06:33.000 Thank you, John.

00:06:34.000 I mean, I just get a kick out of saying that Zelensky represents freedom, the man that bans political parties, the man that literally does not allow the Russian Orthodox Church from existing or worshiping in mainland Ukraine.

00:06:50.000 Zelensky is a corrupt oligarch.

00:06:51.000 Does that mean he deserves and his people deserve to be invaded by Putin? 0.97

00:06:54.000 No.

00:06:55.000 But to make Zelensky somehow the standard bearer of Western freedom is just laughable. 0.96

00:07:02.000 It's silly.

00:07:03.000 But isn't it interesting?

00:07:05.000 How is what Joe Biden just said any different than what Nikki Haley said last week?

00:07:11.000 I want you to hear what Joe Biden said.

00:07:13.000 It's about freedom.

00:07:15.000 It's about freedom.

00:07:16.000 That is precisely the same talking point that Nikki Haley used in her interview with David Brody from Real America's Voice did a phenomenal job.

00:07:28.000 And she said, look, it's about freedom.

00:07:30.000 It's about freedom.

00:07:31.000 Wait a second.

00:07:32.000 When Joe Biden and Nikki Haley are saying the exact same thing about a corrupt oligarch where we have spent anywhere between 100 to 200 billion and we are quickly stumbling towards a thermonuclear conflict, which I pray never happens, then what are we doing here?

00:07:52.000 That should expose to you that this is not a Democrat issue.

00:07:57.000 This is a uniparty issue.

00:08:00.000 This is a uniparty government issue where people like Lady Graham and Joe Biden, they are more concerned.

00:08:09.000 In fact, they are obsessed with what's happening in Ukraine, but they will not be bothered by the drug overdose crisis, the mental health crisis.

00:08:17.000 No, no, no, that is.

00:08:20.000 Americans can fend for themselves. 0.98

00:08:23.000 Play cut eight.

00:08:25.000 But what Secretary Blinken said is big news to me.

00:08:29.000 He believes that the Chinese are on the verge of providing lethal weapons to Putin.

00:08:36.000 So that's why we should designate Russia a state-sponsored terrorism, because if you do that under U.S. law and China provides lethal weapons, they will get sanctioned. 0.99

00:08:47.000 And to the Chinese, if you jump on the Putin train now, you're dumber than dirt. 1.00

00:08:53.000 It would be like buying a ticket on the Titanic after you saw the movie. 0.99

00:08:57.000 Our actions are just driving Russia into China's arms. 0.92

00:09:02.000 Our actions are getting us closer to a conflict that will not be resolved through prudent or mature means.

00:09:09.000 What does success look like?

00:09:10.000 Freedom is what I'm told.

00:09:12.000 Okay, can you answer what success looks like without using an abstraction?

00:09:17.000 I'm all for freedom.

00:09:19.000 That's a very complex word, though.

00:09:21.000 It's a complex word because what do you mean by that?

00:09:23.000 Do you mean self-government?

00:09:25.000 Do you mean the rule of law?

00:09:26.000 Do you mean separation of powers?

00:09:27.000 Do you mean a constitutional republic?

00:09:29.000 Or do you use that as kind of a facade, as a mirage, as a smokescreen so that we stop asking questions?

00:09:40.000 Okay, Kirk fans, I need you to stop and pay attention to this.

00:09:44.000 I have never experienced anything quite like the new Strong Cell product.

00:09:48.000 I take it right before every single show.

00:09:50.000 It's so easy.

00:09:51.000 And you've got to read up on everything that has been packed into these tiny bottles.

00:09:54.000 You see, Strong Cell is a new scientific cocktail of cellular level replenishment.

00:09:59.000 It's so simple.

00:10:00.000 Just drink one small bottle of strong cell liquid per day and boom, you guys get NADH.

00:10:06.000 I've kind of become a student of NAD.

00:10:08.000 I'm going to tell you more about that in a second.

00:10:10.000 Look, Strong Cell is a formula that helps boost your body's natural energy and restoration at the cellular level.

00:10:18.000 NAD is a crucial coenzyme that is critical for creating energy in your cells.

00:10:24.000 Now, you might say, Charlie, this sounds too good to be true.

00:10:26.000 NAD, go look it up online.

00:10:28.000 Go do five minutes of research on NAD.

00:10:30.000 It is a miracle coenzyme.

00:10:32.000 Some people call it the anti-aging enzyme.

00:10:35.000 It can help with depression.

00:10:36.000 It can help with anxiety.

00:10:38.000 It can help with mental acuity with memory.

00:10:40.000 And Strong Cell also puts CoQ10 and wild-caught marine collagen.

00:10:46.000 Again, I take it every day, and the difference I feel is undeniable.

00:10:50.000 By taking just one small bottle of Strong Cell liquid every day, you can experience an energy boost within the first week and even more benefits within the first 15 days.

00:10:58.000 After 30 days, you'll feel like a new person.

00:11:01.000 But just don't take my word for it.

00:11:03.000 Try Strong Cell for yourself and see the difference it can make.

00:12:19.000 Make sure you support his books as well as his website, Cash.

00:12:23.000 Let's Lead Without. 0.96

00:12:24.000 How can people support you?

00:12:26.000 Thanks so much.

00:12:26.000 Great to be back with you, Charlie.

00:12:27.000 FightwithCash.com, FightWithCash for the K.

00:12:30.000 It's our 501c3 charity.

00:12:32.000 We gave away $100,000 to veterans, Jan Sig's families, and financial people's legal defense funds last year alone.

00:12:39.000 We're looking at 10X that this year.

00:12:41.000 And my book, Government Gangsters, is on there, which is a new book on how to take back the government.

00:12:45.000 But they won't release the manuscript, so I'm going to take them to court.

00:12:49.000 Good for you.

00:12:49.000 So, Cash, there's a lot of news to cover here.

00:12:51.000 First, let's talk about Ukraine.

00:12:53.000 You know, you were chief of staff to DOD.

00:12:55.000 That was the title, right?

00:12:56.000 So you were at the top and you were executing on the America First foreign policy, which is strength, but no endless wars, prudence, dialogue, trying to broker peace.

00:13:04.000 We have the opposite happening right now.

00:13:07.000 So first, I want to play Joe Biden saying we're going to support the U.S. We're going to support Ukraine for as long as it takes.

00:13:13.000 And he says it's about freedom.

00:13:14.000 And then I'm going to play a tape of Nikki Haley.

00:13:16.000 And you got to wonder, what's the difference?

00:13:17.000 Play cut four first.

00:13:19.000 Freedom is priceless.

00:13:23.000 It's worth fighting for for as long as it takes.

00:13:27.000 And that's how long we're going to be with you, Mr. President.

00:13:30.000 For as long as it takes.

00:13:33.000 We'll do it.

00:13:34.000 Thank you.

00:13:36.000 Now listen to CUT 21.

00:13:38.000 It's almost the exact same script.

00:13:40.000 We have the backs of our friends and we hold our enemies to account.

00:13:44.000 And, you know, whether it's Ukraine or Israel, we take care of them because it's about freedom.

00:13:50.000 And we can never stop fighting for freedom.

00:13:53.000 This isn't a war about Ukraine.

00:13:55.000 This is a war about freedom.

00:13:57.000 We have to make sure we send a message to every enemy that if you mess with our friends, you're messing with us and you don't want to do that.

00:14:05.000 And that, therefore, is America first, in essence. 0.89

00:14:08.000 It is taking care of America because we're preventing wars.

00:14:11.000 So, Cash, we now have literally, if you were to read the transcripts unattributed and just guess, it's exactly the same.

00:14:18.000 Why is it that Republicans and Democrats can't agree on things that matter, but the things they can agree on is helping foreign countries in proxy wars against nuclear-armed powers?

00:14:30.000 There's one thing and one thing alone, and it's the biggest problem facing the United States government.

00:14:34.000 It's what I talk about in my book, Government Gangsters.

00:14:37.000 It's called the Defense Industrial Complex.

00:14:39.000 When I was chief of staff at the Department of Defense, I called the CEOs of the five biggest defense industrial contractors, Boeing, Lockheed, Northrop Grumman, McDonnell Douglas, and one other.

00:14:48.000 Four of them called me back on the same day.

00:14:51.000 One did not.

00:14:51.000 And I said, listen, you all provide an invaluable service in defense of our country, but I've also seen each one of your companies like tens of billions of dollars on fire.

00:15:00.000 That money goes straight to the lobbying powerhouse in Washington, D.C. and the golden parachutes to people like Adam Kinzinger and Mark Esper when they leave government.

00:15:08.000 The war machine, make no mistake about it, is a third of the defense industrial complex's budget, and it is never ending, which is why you see these politicians, these government gangsters, put it at the top and hide it under the pretext of international freedom and peace.

00:15:25.000 We, I, led the effort to withdraw out of Afghanistan successfully along with Iraq, Syria, and Somalia.

00:15:32.000 It's possible.

00:15:33.000 That's an America first agenda that actually worked.

00:15:36.000 But you have to be willing to take on the biggest swamp machine that ever existed.

00:15:40.000 And I mean more so than the RNC and the DNC, and that's the defense industrial complex.

00:15:45.000 So, Cash, Joe Biden visited Ukraine today or yesterday.

00:15:51.000 I mean, the day is kind of blurred because they're like nine hours ahead of us, but let's just say in the last couple of hours, Joe Biden was in Ukraine.

00:15:58.000 This was a surprise visit, and yet I did not hear any mention of peace or for trying to get closer to peace.

00:16:07.000 In fact, it seemed as if Biden was tilting his hand to the opposite.

00:16:12.000 It seemed as if he was talking about extending, intensifying, and accelerating the conflict in Ukraine.

00:16:20.000 Almost an indefinite proxy war that could end up costing us more than a trillion dollars, already nearly at least 100 billion, could be as much as 200 billion.

00:16:29.000 We're just guessing at this point.

00:16:32.000 And all the while, where it's almost, it's almost a conclusive fact that we know we bombed Nordstream, the pipeline, which is an act of war against Russia.

00:16:42.000 Why is it that Joe Biden and his lackeys and his Republican allies, such as Lady Graham, why do they want war so badly?

00:16:49.000 It goes back to what I said, but let me bring in Hollywood to complete the circle.

00:16:53.000 Our favorite actor, Sean Penn, just put out a headline that said the United States is effed unless it provides immediate and all-military assistance to Ukraine.

00:17:02.000 These people, Joe Biden and company, take their national security marching orders from the radical left-wing agenda and the Hollywood elitists because they think it's cool to wear a button that's yellow and blue and not go to East Palestine, Ohio, where thousands of Americans have been put in harm's way.

00:17:18.000 But it's a, because no one wants to cover that on CNN and New York Times, but they want to fly over and bring the war machine over there.

00:17:24.000 And listen, I have said this on your show before.

00:17:27.000 The Ukraine is the next modern-day Afghanistan. 0.99

00:17:30.000 United States conventional soldiers will be on the ground in the Ukraine inside of a year.

00:17:35.000 I've been saying that for the last two years, saying two years before that.

00:17:39.000 So what I mean by that is the machinery and weaponry we send over there, these tanks, these missile defense systems, these surface-to-air things, they require American contractors who are already on the ground to repair, operate, maintain, and educate the Ukrainians on how to do this type of warfare. 0.90

00:17:56.000 We will be there soon because we are doing the exact same thing that got us into Afghanistan for 20 years by sending north of a trillion dollars over there.

00:18:04.000 And our treasure is already invested in Ukraine and our blood is soon to follow.

00:18:09.000 And we don't have any we do have congressional approval of funding, but how about a congressional approval for war?

00:18:15.000 If we're going to send our troops into a theater that could result into World War III, a nice up or down vote would be would be really helpful. 0.83

00:18:24.000 Just very simple up or down vote.

00:18:25.000 Okay, let's go to Lady Graham, cut two.

00:18:29.000 Of course, he won't be distracted by East Palestine, Ohio.

00:18:32.000 Why?

00:18:33.000 I have a separate complaint about this.

00:18:35.000 When he wanted to go endorse Donald Trump, President Trump should have been like, yeah, I don't want your endorsement.

00:18:39.000 I actually think it Wincin's campaign.

00:18:41.000 Play cut two.

00:18:42.000 I'm not worried about provoking Putin. 0.98

00:18:44.000 I want to beat him.

00:18:46.000 And how do you beat him? 0.97

00:18:47.000 You beat him by giving the Ukrainians the military capability to drive the Russians out of Ukraine. 0.93

00:18:53.000 And I've never been more optimistic about winning this war in Ukraine than I am right now.

00:18:58.000 I see solidarity across the aisle in America and across the seas.

00:19:03.000 Now, this is a rather, this is a side note, but Cash, maybe you can help me.

00:19:08.000 It seems the most energized and the most passionate cable news segments that some of these people have from Kinzinger to Graham is around the topic of war.

00:19:19.000 I don't see that kind of animating energy around train derailments or plane delays or drug overdoses or southern border.

00:19:29.000 That's not to say they don't mention it, but when they really get that kind of zeal where they really get worked up, when they use the most emotionally charged language, it's about conflicts happening 5,000 miles away.

00:19:41.000 You're absolutely right.

00:19:42.000 And listen, they have sort of flipped the narrative from who was saying these things when we're talking about Afghanistan and Iraq after 2011 to now.

00:19:50.000 Now they're saying in unison, before it used to be Republicans versus Democrats, now they all want to say.

00:19:55.000 And here's the scary thing, Charlie.

00:19:57.000 The people that are charged with the leadership and defense of our country are actually saying, like your clip just played, that we can win.

00:20:04.000 And of course we want to defeat Putin at all costs, but they're saying we can win and the Ukraine can win by just shipping stuff over there.

00:20:12.000 Remember Afghanistan?

00:20:13.000 Remember these people who said, oh, if we just give aid to the Taliban and local government, we can beat Al-Qaeda.

00:20:19.000 We put the greatest military force on God's green earth into Afghanistan for 20 years and we didn't win. 0.97

00:20:26.000 Do we really think by sending tanks and service to air missiles and $200 billion to Ukraine that that is going to be the measure of success that defeats Putin in this conflict or war, as we actually, as it should be called?

00:20:40.000 That's where these politicians always make their mistake.

00:20:42.000 And they don't talk about the one thing to me that matters the most.

00:20:46.000 How many American service members are going to be injured or more or worse, die in the Ukrainian conflict in the years to come because you're investing America's future in it by burying our tax dollars overseas instead of spending them here on America-first policies.

00:21:00.000 It's going to be a tragic, tragic day when the first plane load of American soldiers goes over there to fight yet another never-ending war.

00:21:06.000 And it could be happening very soon.

00:21:08.000 Putin is about to plan a very aggressive, let's just say spring campaign.

00:21:14.000 He has about a six-week window before the Russian-Ukrainian mud season kicks in. 0.95

00:21:19.000 It's this very specific window.

00:21:21.000 And then obviously there'll be a lot of fighting over the summer.

00:21:24.000 But all satellite imagery that has been made public and the war commentators that aren't purchased by Raytheon or Northrop Grumman, they're trying to warn people it's about to be a bloodbath.

00:21:35.000 A bloodbath is imminent.

00:21:37.000 And what is Joe Biden doing there?

00:21:39.000 Well, is Joe Biden trying to calm down the tensions?

00:21:42.000 Were there any peace talks that happened here?

00:21:45.000 Was there any kind of dialogue or negotiation or at least the attempt to get the two parties in the room to say, hey, there's probably going to be 100,000 human beings that are young, ages 18 to 24 on both sides that are going to die in the next 90 days?

00:21:59.000 Maybe we should just exhaust all of our options.

00:22:02.000 But no, instead, Joe Biden waddles into Kyiv and is basically a proxy of the CIA of the deep state of our government, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, and Boeing.

00:22:13.000 They stand to make a ton of money, and it really is a tragedy.

00:22:17.000 And the Democrats are totally on board for this.

00:22:19.000 Obviously, they used to be the anti-war party, but no longer. 0.76

00:22:23.000 They are now the most enthusiastic proponents for perpetual, endless, silly, and meaningless wars. 0.71

00:22:29.000 It's a tragedy. 0.74

00:23:35.000 Okay, joining us now is Tara Reid.

00:23:36.000 Tara, tell us about the anti-war demonstration this last weekend.

00:23:40.000 Sure.

00:23:40.000 Okay, can you hear me okay?

00:23:42.000 Yes, please proceed.

00:23:43.000 Perfect.

00:23:44.000 Hi.

00:23:44.000 Thank you so much for having me on the show.

00:23:46.000 I really appreciate it.

00:23:47.000 And I appreciate all the breaking news that you're telling.

00:23:50.000 I was really shocked by that to hear that.

00:23:52.000 Thank you.

00:23:53.000 James O'Keefe is a hero to many.

00:23:55.000 Yes, he is.

00:23:56.000 I feel like we're in just the struggle, you know, right now between good and evil, to be honest with you.

00:24:02.000 It just feels almost overwhelming sometimes.

00:24:07.000 But this weekend was a gathering of conservative voices, a lot of conservative voices, some lefties, some whatever.

00:24:14.000 But it was just people with very different views.

00:24:16.000 I mean, you had Dennis Kucinich, Ron Paul, Tulsi Gabbard, Jimmy Dore, Max Blumenthal, myself.

00:24:24.000 I was speaking, Kim Iverson.

00:24:26.000 And we were all saying one thing: no more money to Ukraine.

00:24:30.000 Seriously, that's just so obvious.

00:24:31.000 Please continue.

00:24:33.000 Well, we've spent almost $100 billion in weapons and aid.

00:24:37.000 And then just a couple of days ago, I'm not sure if you've had a chance to talk to your audience about this, but Joe Biden promised that more money could go for Ukrainian pensions, their government pensions.

00:24:49.000 And it's shocking, really.

00:24:50.000 I mean, there are many Americans that need pensions.

00:24:55.000 And in my opinion, this is a money laundering scheme, and Biden is very entrenched in it, and he should be investigated.

00:25:02.000 And what I mean about the struggle between good and evil is that this war is harming so many.

00:25:08.000 It's really a proxy war of the U.S. against Russia via Ukraine.

00:25:14.000 But the Ukrainians are dying. 1.00

00:25:16.000 Russians are dying. 1.00

00:25:17.000 Europeans are being driven into bankruptcy.

00:25:20.000 And there's war crimes being committed against the residents of Donbass.

00:25:24.000 They're not being allowed to practice their religion.

00:25:28.000 Their language has been taken away and their culture by the Kiev regime.

00:25:33.000 And that's not democracy.

00:25:35.000 So America and NATO are saying they're defending democracy, but that's not a democracy, in my opinion.

00:25:41.000 No, no.

00:25:42.000 And yeah, so it's hard to see all these billions when we have Americans suffering here.

00:25:49.000 And I feel strongly because I used to be a Democrat and I used to be, you know, years ago, I worked for Leon Panetta as an intern and then, you know, had my terrible experience with Senator Biden.

00:26:02.000 And I can tell you, you know, and tell your audience that I witnessed a lot of corruption and I'm still witnessing it.

00:26:11.000 And now it's affecting our whole country.

00:26:13.000 And we're on the brink of nuclear war.

00:26:16.000 And we're on the wrong side of history.

00:26:18.000 America is on the wrong side of history.

00:26:19.000 We're backing neo-Nazis in Ukraine and evil.

00:26:23.000 That's what we are.

00:26:25.000 So just closing thought here, though.

00:26:28.000 Are you starting to see more and more Democrats speak out against this?

00:26:32.000 No, really.

00:26:33.000 I mean, where is AOC?

00:26:35.000 Where are these progressives supposedly on anti-war?

00:26:38.000 I don't see them at all.

00:26:40.000 I mean, and in fact, you know, we had this very successful rally where thousands of people came, but where was the mainstream media?

00:26:47.000 They weren't there.

00:26:48.000 The only, actually, the only show besides yourself that talks about this has been Tucker Carlson.

00:26:56.000 And, you know, he's a gem.

00:26:57.000 He's a light for all of us.

00:27:01.000 So, you know, and that's what I mean.

00:27:03.000 So they silence, suppress, censor, and here we are.

00:27:07.000 You know, and people want to know what's happening, what's really happening.

00:27:11.000 And right now, there was a secret meeting on Friday with the U.S. military about F-16s going to Ukraine.

00:27:19.000 Now everyone knows if this war goes into the air, it's going to be a hot war and it's going to escalate things even more.

00:27:26.000 We need some sound minds.

00:27:29.000 And, you know, I would recommend prayer as well at this point.

00:27:33.000 I hope our leaders start to do the responsible thing.

00:27:39.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:28:35.000 Promo code Kirk.

00:28:36.000 Check it out.

00:28:40.000 You know, one thing I'd like to suggest is if we ever got Iran to thinking that we ought to vote on the wars instead of letting an executive order take us to war, we ought to have a vote.

00:28:51.000 If you think you should have a war, have a vote and make sure that the vote is carried out by the people between 18 and 24. 0.78

00:29:01.000 With this right now, as Tara Reed, just in closing here, Tara, just talk more about what you were hearing and what needs to be done to hopefully convince the American ruling class to get out of this quagmire in Ukraine.

00:29:14.000 Well, you know, you brought up some good points about the ruling class, right?

00:29:20.000 You have the conservative, you know, the Republicans and you have the Democrats, but it seems like there's kind of a uniparty almost about this Ukraine war.

00:29:30.000 However, you have many conservatives that don't want this war.

00:29:34.000 In fact, Republicans and libertarians in particular have been leading the cause to, you know, lead an anti-war message.

00:29:42.000 And I think that's really powerful.

00:29:44.000 And I find that inspirational, actually.

00:29:47.000 So you heard Telsey Gabbard speak quite clearly about the deep state and how it does exist, unfortunately, and that this is benefiting a very few people, this war.

00:29:58.000 And it's, you know, the weapons manufacturers that are benefiting and with the blood on their hands and lining their pockets with money from this.

00:30:07.000 So it's, you know, it's quite something.

00:30:10.000 So Dennis Kucinich said some words, and Ron Paul, of course, and others with wisdom that they've carried through years of watching corruption and are trying to call out the message and have been censored and, you know, kind of marginalized or pushed to the side when they try to tell the truth.

00:30:30.000 So we need to figure out how we can expose the corruption.

00:30:33.000 One way would be a congressional hearing into Joe Biden.

00:30:36.000 And Margie Taylor Greene suggested that there be impeachment hearings on Joe Biden.

00:30:42.000 I would be willing to go under oath about what happened to me and testify before congressional hearings.

00:30:49.000 But I think more importantly right now is our American people as a whole, our citizens that are suffering, that they address his economic, you know, this economic corruption that's going on, which is truly evil because of the harm that it's doing and taking the whole world to a possible world war.

00:31:08.000 That's where we're headed.

00:31:10.000 Tara, thank you so much for your courage.

00:31:12.000 Appreciate it.
