00:00:44.000His 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.
00:00:52.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:17.000I've known Nick for years, and we've done a lot of things together.
00:01:21.000And Nick has a really exciting announcement, a huge announcement with our friends at Public Square, publicsq.com, being a new father and spending the GDP of Kenya on diapers.
00:01:33.000I totally understand that this is a necessary announcement to no longer fund the woke weasels that run most of the diaper companies.
00:01:58.000You know, the most important thing in my life outside of my faith in Christ that happened in high school is when Jamie and I had a miraculous pregnancy.
00:02:08.000And Charlie, I think you know a little bit about our story, but we were promised that it was medically impossible that we would never have our own children.
00:02:15.000And a few years later, truly had a miracle in every respect.
00:02:22.000And we found out that she was pregnant with three babies.
00:02:26.000And very quickly after that, we were also then assured that one of them, referred to as Baby C, had a 0% chance of life.
00:02:36.000And the doctors strongly encouraged us, not only very early in the pregnancy, at seven and eight weeks, but as late as six months into the pregnancy, they pleaded and begged with us to terminate Baby C because they said Baby C had a 0% chance of life and it would cost us the opportunity to have healthy twins.
00:03:00.000And Jamie and I, in a way that only can be attributed to our faith, had a peace that surpassed all understanding.
00:03:08.000And we just, we felt like we knew we were not the author or the creator of life.
00:03:15.000And we trusted the Lord with any outcome.
00:03:18.000And he blessed us beyond, as he usually does, what we deserve and what we could have ever imagined.
00:03:24.000And so those three children, for me, are living stones of the sovereignty of God and how he honors obedience.
00:03:32.000And I cannot think of any more mission critical, especially where our nation is today, than to give parents, grandparents, and people who believe what you and I believe an opportunity to align their values with a company that cares that much about the innocence of every life.
00:03:50.000And that's exactly why we launched Every Life this morning was to give every baby a chance to say that we cherish and protect and celebrate every baby, irrespective of race, of gender, that we want them all to have an opportunity.
00:04:06.000And you would think, Charlie, that that would be something that's like, well, yeah, that's great.
00:04:10.000That's what every diaper company should do.
00:04:14.000But your listeners, your viewers won't be surprised to learn that, in fact, it's not.
00:04:19.000There are a litany of, you know, every household diaper brand name that you and I could rattle off are very public about and proud of the fact that some support their employees by matching their donations to Planned Parenthood, or they pay for them to travel and have abortions.
00:04:36.000And look, the great thing about our country is that we're free.
00:04:41.000People are free to make their own decisions and determinations.
00:04:45.000I think that's crazy for especially a diaper company.
00:04:49.000And it's exactly why we launched Every Life this morning.
00:04:53.000So, for example, there is a company, Cordier or something like that, Cordier, I don't know how to pronounce it.
00:05:01.000Apparently, you know, we buy diapers from them a lot.
00:05:05.000We get these like big shipments of them, but apparently they are like pro-abortion.
00:05:12.000I mean, how could I just hope everyone understands these for every parent out there that every major diaper company out there is pro-abortion, pro-abortion.
00:05:24.000And so you would think that if you're in the diaper business, you would want more babies.
00:05:29.000Like of all the businesses where you would want more children, Procter Gamble said its new travel policy will cover workers who can't access care from a provider to terminate their pregnancy and kill their baby.
00:05:42.000The conglomerate, which makes household products such as Pampers and Tide, employs 26,000 people in the United States and is based in Ohio, which has an abortion ban.
00:07:25.000I would put our values and our mission and our vision, which is all available on the website, up against any company in the world.
00:07:32.000I'm so proud of them and I'm so excited about it.
00:07:35.000But sometimes you and I have seen companies that are grounded in some wonderful things have cut corners when it comes to the delivery or the excellence of the product.
00:07:44.000And what your listeners, hopefully our future customers have our commitment on is that there were no corners cut.
00:07:52.000This is a premium diaper where we eliminated the plastics and the toxins and the chemicals that moms especially rightly really care about, things that affect or could affect the development of the baby's brain and body.
00:09:19.000But every time you swipe your card, every time you pay with your phone or hand somebody a dollar bill in this economy, based on ESG and DEI and what's going on in corporate boardrooms, you're voting with your dollars, whether you like it or not.
00:09:36.000So if you're not researching the companies, like you just went through a lot of research on Coterie and Procter ⁇ Gamble and Unilever and that's just publicly available information.
00:09:46.000If consumers who share our values are not wising up and researching, who am I sharing my hard-earned capital or hard-earned money with?
00:09:55.000Because these companies, they are aggressively using their profits for social engineering, politics, and things way outside what built a lot of these great companies, which were Judeo-Christian values, American values, and excellence.
00:10:11.000They're far more concerned with appeasing the CPP and how to become a global company.
00:10:17.000And they have detached themselves from the values that built this country.
00:10:22.000And so the opportunity that we have with Every Life and companies like this is to vote every day with our dollar.
00:10:31.000Vote with your card, vote with your feet.
00:10:54.000I want everybody in the audience to buy diapers for either your, if you need them in the immediate or send them to your daughter who has a kid.
00:11:02.000Send them to your granddaughter that has a kid.
00:11:04.000Everylife.com and say enough funding these pro-abortion diaper companies.
00:11:09.000I mean, could you think of something sicker?
00:11:28.000So, hey, Nick, can you just build out even further the big picture vision, the telos of public square to be the navigational tool, to be the place where we can shop our values?
00:11:42.000There's 75 to 80 million people that we know are on the center right that, let's just say, vote Republican, and they are not represented at all in corporate America.
00:11:55.000Talk about the market opportunity and how publicsq.com seeks to solve that.
00:12:01.000Yeah, what Michael Seifert and the team at Public Square has built, Charlie, as you know, is absolutely amazing.
00:12:08.000It's why I invested in the company last year.
00:12:10.000It's how they've achieved supernatural growth in the last year, jumping to over 1.1 million people on the platform, over 55,000 businesses on the platform.
00:12:21.000And as we thought about launching Every Life, you know, the question was really who better in the world to co-found this company with than Public Square, which is the wholly owned subsidiary.
00:12:33.000So just as you mentioned, Unilever or excuse me, Kimberly Clark and Procter Gamble own Pampers and Huggies.
00:12:40.000We have the benefit of being wholly owned by Public Square, which means our values, our mission, our vision for life, and the desire to protect every innocent child from above and consider them all a miracle from God.
00:12:52.000That'll never be changed in a boardroom.
00:12:55.000And yet, Public Square is on a rocket ship trajectory of its own.
00:12:58.000Next week, they'll be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
00:13:02.000Michael, Omid, myself, many other early investors in the company will ring the opening bell of the stock exchange next Tuesday morning, which is a sign of just the incredible momentum Public Square has around it.
00:13:16.000Look, corporate boardrooms have written off half the country who share our values, who love this country and who love capitalism.
00:13:26.000That creates a huge opportunity for a platform like Public Square to create a market of commerce of like-minded people so that if you believe what you believe, Charlie, if you believe what I believe, we can go to Public Square to the app or publicsq.com and find 55,000 plus other businesses like EveryLife.
00:13:49.000And the miracle of EveryLife, and there are many of them, is that we didn't guess about creating this business.
00:13:57.000We knew there was a need, especially in the backlash of Target.
00:14:01.000Michael could see that there were many, many searches of usually moms out there looking for alternatives to Hello Bellow, Honest, Pampers, and Huggies.
00:14:13.000They did not want to shop at retail stores like Target where they were buying the diapers.
00:14:18.000And so we know that there are, you know, 75 to 100 million plus Americans who share these values and who are looking for companies that will affirm that while delivering excellent products at fair prices.
00:14:32.000And that's exactly what EveryLife will do.
00:15:10.000Yeah, I have one final thought, which is while these companies are giving to organizations and causes that destroy innocent life, I want to be clear about something.
00:15:19.000Look, we want to run a great business and we will do that.
00:15:22.000But we're also going to be charitable and we're going to put our money where our mouth is.
00:15:26.000And so we are already proud to support, and that support's only going to grow as a business grows.
00:15:31.000Incredible organizations like what Lila Rose is doing at Live Action, incredible organizations like Save the Storks.
00:15:38.000There's an unbelievable nonprofit in just north of Atlanta, Georgia, called Faithbridge that recruits and trains godly foster parents to take in the neediest and most vulnerable children.
00:15:50.000EveryLife wants to provide nonprofits like that with premium diapers at no cost.
00:15:56.000So every time people buy from us, not only are they going to get an excellent product in return, they're going to empower us to share those products with the brave mothers out there who have chosen life.
00:17:27.000There's a new lawsuit that's been filed.
00:17:29.000Ray Epps has now filed a lawsuit against Fox News saying that his life is ruined and damaged because Tucker Carlson alluded to the fact that he might have been a federal agent, allegedly, allegedly, allegedly.
00:18:14.000And yes, there are many important dimensions to this case.
00:18:17.000We did a full treatment of it, so people should go to Revolver.news and read the definitive analysis of this development.
00:18:23.000There are a couple of things I should say off the bat.
00:18:26.000For one, technically speaking, this is a lawsuit from Ray Epps, his lawyers, against Fox News.
00:18:35.000Although I am named extensively in the complaint, including as the chief purveyor, they basically blame me for the Epps story, which I suppose is correct.
00:18:44.000And the Epps story does come from Revolver News.
00:18:47.000So they're correct, at least as far as that.
00:18:51.000And of course, Tucker is prominently featured.
00:18:53.000Tucker himself and myself and Revolver News, we are not defendants in this complaint.
00:18:58.000It is technically now just a complaint against Fox News, which is kind of ironic.
00:19:04.000You mentioned the possibility that Fox would settle.
00:19:08.000I think it is overwhelmingly likely that Fox News will settle.
00:19:14.000We saw that Fox was a soft target with Dominion.
00:19:17.000They settled unnecessarily for an insane amount, close to a billion dollars.
00:19:25.000So I think Epps' lawyers decided Fox is going to be a soft target and want to settle.
00:19:29.000And when you think about it from Fox's standpoint, weirdly enough, it is kind of in their interest to settle because by doing so, they can reinforce the narrative that Tucker was indeed a liability for them and that they made the right decision in firing.
00:19:48.000So if Fox were to settle, it would serve Fox's interests in that respect.
00:19:53.000It would also serve the regime's interests because the regime janitors in the media could report incorrectly, but they could report on the basis of a settlement that the EPS reporting of Revolver News that Tucker amplified, that this has been discredited in court.
00:20:14.000And of course, the chilling effect is very real.
00:20:16.000I already know firsthand of at least one major conservative media institution, not Fox, that has decided not to report on Epps at all due to fear of a lawsuit.
00:20:30.000So a settlement in Fox's case would simply intensify the chilling effect.
00:20:36.000So that's sort of contextually something important to put out there.
00:20:40.000Then there's the substance of the case, which is ridiculous.
00:20:44.000And in fact, we're working on a follow-up piece that should be out either this evening or tomorrow morning, which will absolutely eviscerate the legal foundations of this claim as a matter of defamation law.
00:21:00.000There's no defamation coming from Tucker.
00:21:02.000There's no defamation coming from Revolver News.
00:21:05.000All of the reporting was absolutely legitimate.
00:21:08.000And, you know, if you can't ask questions about this guy, Ray Epps, go and read the original Revolver.news piece and watch the video and then tell yourself this is the only January 6th participant that the DOJ has been protecting for over two and a half years,
00:21:26.000that the New York Times writes a fully dedicated tough piece on that's continued to this more recent coverage, that 60 Minutes did a sympathy segment on where they wouldn't even have me on to offer the opposing viewpoint.
00:21:42.000The producer said, oh, yeah, we're going to have you on, you have you on.
00:21:45.000And then I guess they realized even with their splice and dice, even with their editorial tactics, it would be too dangerous to have me on because the case against him is so overwhelming.
00:21:57.000So he's got a 60 minutes sympathy piece.
00:22:02.000And of course, he's the only January 6th participant that Adam Kinsinger, a man who spends a lot of the day on all fours and who's never met a January 6th participant he didn't want to see in jail for over 50 years.
00:22:14.000Epps is the only January 6th guy that Adam Kinsinger will defend.
00:22:18.000And to add to the list of unusual and perhaps suspicious bedfellows for Epps, let's look at the legal representation for Epps in this defamation tour that he's doing.
00:22:31.000He is represented by none other than Michael Cater, who is an individual who comes from deep within the bowels of the Democrat establishment's nexus with the national security state.
00:22:44.000He's an employee of the notorious Democrat hatchet man David Brock.
00:22:50.000He is a former employee of the notorious and disgraced law firm Perkins Coi, that was basically the laboratory out of which the whole Russia hoax and steel dossier was concocted.
00:23:04.000And so the political motivations for these individuals clear.
00:23:09.000They want to take out Tucker and they want to take out me.
00:23:13.000But the first step will be Fox News and get the settlement and then they'll decide whether it's worthwhile going after me and Tucker.
00:23:21.000But it's obviously an evolving story and it's one of great interest.
00:23:26.000And I mean, what more example do you need of the level of sensitivity that Gray Epps introduces for the regime?
00:23:37.000They are really pulling out all of the stuffs to prevent anyone from talking about EPS and from amplifying the coverage on EPS that Revolver.news and Tucker Carlson have already done.
00:23:49.000So, Darren, help me understand how could it be defamation to say that someone might work for the federal government.
00:24:00.000That's not like calling somebody a Nazi or a rapist.
00:24:04.000His claim that I'm not a Fed since you could see I'm getting arrested and therefore pay me money because my life is ruined because you said I might be on federal government payroll.
00:24:19.000Help me understand this claim, Darren.
00:24:21.000Well, as I said, we're working on the definitive takedown of Epps's claim from a legal perspective.
00:24:27.000It gets into some of the intricacies of defamation law, which are very interesting.
00:24:32.000And the questions you raise are very interesting and legitimate.
00:24:37.000The idea of defamation is reputational damage.
00:24:41.000That's the underlying principle of defamation.
00:24:44.000And there's a principle called defamation per se, which means it's the nature of the alleged libel is so severe that it's in a special category where you don't even have to prove damages.
00:24:58.000There's no claim of defamation per se here.
00:25:01.000Even, you know, you and I, anyone who, you know, tries to defend America has been called a Nazi white supremacist, everything.
00:25:09.000Unfortunately, those accusations, which really do incur severe reputational damage in modern United States, those are not considered defamation per se, which I think they should be, but they're not.
00:25:23.000And so they're not claiming defamation per se in the case of these claims that he may have been a federal agent or working on behalf of a third party and so forth.
00:25:32.000And so they have to claim damages as well and also claim intentional malice because he's a public figure.
00:25:42.000So they have to meet all of those standards.
00:25:44.000But back to your original question, which gets to the core of their claim here, is that is it reputationally worse for Epp to be what it seems from the video that he is an active participant in what the regime calls an insurrection and one of the worst terrorist attacks in American history, domestic terror attacks, in American history?
00:26:09.000Is that reputationally worse for him than saying, oh, he was actually working on behalf of the government in some capacity?
00:26:17.000Seems at the very least that reputationally he'd be worse off to be the criminal domestic extremist rather than somebody working with some kind of imprimater from the government.
00:26:30.000So it's kind of an interesting question in that respect.
00:26:34.000And like I said, it's a question that we will address comprehensively in a forthcoming piece that gets into the weeds of the legal question, which is actually very fascinating.
00:27:09.000Do you believe in our founders' vision for America, that our republic will only survive if we are an educated and informed people who know our rights and our duties?
00:27:17.000Since 1844, Hillsdale College has sought to educate all who wish to learn about these timeless principles of self-government.
00:27:23.000For more than 50 years, the college has worked to spread that mission by sending In Primus their Digest of Liberty to millions of Americans, including me.
00:27:30.000In Primus features some of the best speeches given at Hillsdale events, and now an audio version of the popular speech digest is available in a new podcast of the same name.
00:27:39.000And like print publications in Primus, the podcast is always free.
00:27:42.000You can hear the best arguments from speakers such as Christopher Ruffo, Molly Hemingway, Mark Stein, Hillsdale College President Larry Piarn, among others, read by Hillsdale students.
00:27:51.000I started listening to In Primus and now my friends at Hillsdale, and I want you to listen for free as well.
00:27:57.000You can subscribe today to listen at Primus at charlie4hillsdale.com.
00:28:44.000But let's put that in its own bucket and just listen to what he says because it's not as if, I mean, sex traffickers and human traffickers unfortunately kind of don't really get much scrutiny in the media.
00:29:12.000Andrew Tate is hated because he's an incredibly articulate, forceful defender of traditional masculinity.
00:29:22.000So Andrew Tate talks about things you're not supposed to talk about, which is improving your life, becoming a strong man, learning how to say no to temptations and pleasures and impulses.
00:29:34.000Andrew Tate, in his own words, I listened to the whole thing and I didn't quite understand the Andrew Tate phenomenon beforehand.
00:29:42.000And then I was like, oh, now I get it.
00:30:03.000And I think there's certainly a movement to ensure that there's very little resistance left inside of the number one demographic which is required to resist oppression, which are military-age males.
00:30:14.000And they don't want those kind of people waking up with any kind of self-respect or standards or to say, no, I don't accept this.
00:33:00.000They hate Andrew Tate because he was reaching hundreds of millions, billions of people on a message of self-sovereignty, masculinity, and victor, not victimhood culture.
00:33:10.000And that's why they had to de-platform him and take him out and accuse him of a sex crime, whether or not he committed or not.
