00:00:00.000 Hey, everybody, it's the Anna Charlie Kirk Show.
00:00:01.000 Nigel Farage joins us to talk about the Trump debate and the BRICS situation.
00:00:06.000 And also, you heard it here first Marxism will come via the Greens.
00:00:09.000 Via the Greens.
00:00:11.000 They are going to use the Green agenda to take over the country.
00:00:14.000 Get involved with Turning Point USA, the nation's most important movement, TPUSA.com.
00:00:18.000 That is TPUSA.com.
00:00:20.000 Sorry, high school or college chapter today at TPUSA.com.
00:00:25.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:26.000 Here we go.
00:00:27.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:29.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:31.000 I want you to know we are lucky.
00:00:33.000 To have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:34.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:38.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:39.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:40.000 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.
00:00:48.000 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.
00:00:57.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:00.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts iTrust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at AndrewandTod.com.
00:01:09.000 Joining us now is one of my favorite guests.
00:01:12.000 He is a great patriot, despite not being a citizen of our beautiful country, Nigel Farage, who is the host of Farage TV on GB News Network.
00:01:21.000 Nigel, welcome to the program.
00:01:22.000 I'm told you are in Milwaukee covering the debate.
00:01:26.000 You are a political genius.
00:01:28.000 What do you think right now of the Republican primary and Donald Trump?
00:01:32.000 Well, I mean, obviously, Donald Trump is not going to be here.
00:01:34.000 He doesn't need to be here.
00:01:35.000 He's taken the Reagan precedent from 40 years ago, which is when you're so far ahead.
00:01:40.000 What's the point of going on stage and having Chris Christie just chuck rocks at you?
00:01:45.000 How does that help anybody?
00:01:47.000 How does it help the conservative movement?
00:01:48.000 How does it help the Republican cause?
00:01:50.000 So, quite right that he's not here.
00:01:51.000 Although, as ever with Donald Trump, even though he's not here, of course, all the stories around him will still dominate this debate, namely this extraordinary spectacle we're going to see on Thursday, where he has to present himself to the jailhouse in Fulton County to be arrested and unbelievably charged a $200,000 bail bond in case he skips the country.
00:02:15.000 Which is totally extraordinary.
00:02:17.000 And I've got to tell you, the whole of the world is looking on and thinking, what on earth is America becoming?
00:02:25.000 I mean, if you take away people's faith in the judicial system, you are seriously in danger of getting people and taking the law into their own hands.
00:02:37.000 So even though Trump is not here, his presence will be enormous.
00:02:43.000 And I'm here, Charlie.
00:02:45.000 Well, I mean, number one, of course, I've had an intimate.
00:02:47.000 Relationship with America for 40 years through my working life in commerce and through politics.
00:02:55.000 But I think what's really interesting is this who is going to be the VP running mate?
00:03:01.000 And maybe that person will be on the stage in Milwaukee tomorrow evening.
00:03:06.000 Maybe tomorrow is an audition.
00:03:09.000 And I have to say, whether you agree or not, and we'll find out tomorrow what he's really made of.
00:03:16.000 But I do find The entry into this race of Vivette Ramaswamy is really, really interesting.
00:03:24.000 I think many of his ideas, and let's hope and believe that he holds them sincerely, much of what he's saying, Charlie, represents, I think, what modern conservatism needs to be.
00:03:35.000 Now, look, he could flop tomorrow completely for all I know, but he's the one that I'm going to be watching very closely indeed.
00:03:42.000 Yeah, and we are pushing Ron Johnson for the vice presidency, who's from Wisconsin.
00:03:47.000 I think maybe he'll be there.
00:03:49.000 So, Nigel, that's a really interesting point that you make.
00:03:51.000 So, in ruling class, high society American circles, in let's just say suburban America in the suburbs of Chicago or Highland Park outside of Dallas, something that you would hear when Donald Trump was president as an objection for his presidency is the rest of the world is laughing at us.
00:04:12.000 As if I travel abroad and I'm not proud of the country.
00:04:17.000 This is something I would hear routinely.
00:04:19.000 I don't care what the French say.
00:04:21.000 Think about America.
00:04:22.000 However, Nigel, it's interesting to now say today, Nigel, what does the run of the mill European think of America becoming a third world banana republic?
00:04:33.000 Well, I think two points here, really.
00:04:34.000 I mean, one, the way that the whole judicial system is being turned against Trump in the most extraordinary way makes us scratch our heads.
00:04:42.000 But secondly, remember this we have got China, who have been on huge diplomatic initiatives all over the world, whilst, frankly, America has absented itself.
00:04:55.000 From leadership.
00:04:56.000 I mean, this nonsense when Biden got elected, America is back, as if Trump had walked away from the rest of the world and behaved like an isolationist.
00:05:05.000 Actually, it's Biden that has completely ignored the rest of the world.
00:05:10.000 And so what we see is the West now is lacking in leadership.
00:05:15.000 The fish rots from the head down, and our potential enemies, be they military or economic, they are now beginning to forge very strong.
00:05:26.000 Alliances.
00:05:26.000 And Charlie, I've said this on your program before, and I'll say it again.
00:05:30.000 You know, America is the leader of the free world.
00:05:33.000 If America falls, we all fall.
00:05:35.000 And frankly, with this aged and clearly showing signs of dementia president, you know, America's in a bad place, and therefore the rest of us are not in a good place either.
00:05:48.000 Yeah.
00:05:48.000 And so, Nigel, talk about the health of Europe post America's over the top funding of this proxy war in Ukraine.
00:05:56.000 Is Europe in a better spot?
00:05:57.000 Is the Middle class in the United Kingdom stronger?
00:06:01.000 Do you feel as if that this has been a good idea for NATO to get involved in a proxy war against the Russian Federation?
00:06:10.000 Well, I mean, I think the truth of it is that if you took a Polish perspective on this or a Lithuanian perspective on this, Charlie, you might have a slightly different view.
00:06:19.000 I mean, they are obviously terrified that as Putin, whether it's South Ossetia, whether it's Crimea, whether it's Ukraine, they're obviously very, very scared that Putin may come for them.
00:06:30.000 So we have to understand.
00:06:31.000 That perspective.
00:06:33.000 But, you know, the worry is this the worry is that basically, you know, Putin is now effectively a puppet of the communist Chinese regime.
00:06:45.000 And that is worrying, that is concerning.
00:06:47.000 However, what I do find pretty abhorrent is that we appear to be committed endlessly to funding the continuance of this war.
00:06:57.000 That is the thing that I find seriously objectionable.
00:07:01.000 And, you know, Whatever we think about President Zelensky, I mean, let's face it, you know, picking good guys and bad guys in this situation is not easy or straightforward.
00:07:11.000 Ukraine is a deeply corrupt country.
00:07:13.000 But it seems, and it was Eisenhower that framed this, wasn't it, all those years ago, 70 years ago, he talked about the military industrial complex.
00:07:21.000 And it seems there are economic interests in this war pursuing for as long as possible, regardless of the enormous cost to life, which is genuine and which is real.
00:07:35.000 And so I'm very critical.
00:07:37.000 Of the Biden regime and indeed the British government and much of Europe.
00:07:41.000 It seems they're happy for this war to go on for years and nobody is seriously talking about peace negotiations.
00:07:47.000 But I really do think we ought to be.
00:07:49.000 Yeah.
00:07:50.000 And Nigel, you understand global finance very well.
00:07:54.000 And this kind of creation of BRICS is really chilling for anyone that wants to see the West survive and the West continue to thrive.
00:08:06.000 And it seems as if the kind of entire ruling regime, and even of your country too, is comfortable with seeing the Chinese Communist Party take over the entire world, afraid to even say a negative word about them.
00:08:21.000 And this BRIC situation is not getting major coverage here in America at all, the BRIC situation.
00:08:27.000 Your thoughts on that, Nigel?
00:08:28.000 Well, this is the biggest challenge in many, many ways to the dominance of the US dollar that we've seen in our lifetimes.
00:08:37.000 You know, we're used to everything being priced in dollars, whether it's oil, other commodities.
00:08:41.000 You know, the dollar has been the great reserve currency, US Treasury bonds, the safest place in the world to put your money.
00:08:49.000 And what the BRICs are trying to do is to challenge all of that.
00:08:53.000 Now, There's one piece of good news on this, and that is that economically, China is in a much more fragile state than I think most commentators have begun to understand.
00:09:04.000 But diplomatically, and I made this point a few minutes ago diplomatically, I mean, the ability of the Chinese to get the Iranians and the Saudis together in one room was quite extraordinary.
00:09:15.000 So be in no doubt, even though short term China does have and does face some very real economic problems, you know, their goal.
00:09:25.000 is to be the biggest force in the world.
00:09:28.000 And that is in terms of economic strength, in terms of military strength, and in terms of diplomatic, not pressure, but influence.
00:09:38.000 So don't underestimate what the Chinese Communist Party are up to.
00:09:42.000 They want to be the dominant global superpower.
00:09:45.000 And we, on my side of the pond, you know, we look to America to be our counterbalance to this.
00:09:52.000 We look to America to be our leader when it comes to all of this.
00:09:56.000 And at the moment, I'm sorry to say, and, you know, I'm a, I'm a great friend of America, but I think friends can be critical.
00:10:04.000 The truth of it is that America is rudderless, the West is rudderless, and it's allowing China to do all these things.
00:10:11.000 And that's why BRICS, for the first time, has so many countries involved.
00:10:17.000 Hey, everybody.
00:10:18.000 Charlie Kirk here.
00:10:19.000 Every day we hear about another familiar brand selling out their customers and going woke.
00:10:23.000 Americans are sick and tired of having left wing propaganda jammed every product they consume.
00:10:28.000 Woke mobile companies are no different.

00:11:20.000 The debate is tomorrow.
00:11:23.000 We are working on the logistics.
00:11:24.000 We're going to try to do a counter stream where we're watching it in real time.
00:11:28.000 We're working on the logistics of it.
00:11:30.000 It just might work because the debate is also being streamed live on Rumble.
00:11:35.000 When is the Democrat debate?
00:11:36.000 The party of democracy doesn't debate, doesn't have elections, but they're the party of democracy.
00:11:41.000 The RNC is completely dysfunctional.
00:11:43.000 These rules are so sloppily put together.
00:11:47.000 Here's Asa Hutchinson, play cut 24.
00:11:53.000 Of course, if you believe that he's not qualified under our Constitution, the 14th Amendment, then he's not going to even be in the picture.
00:12:02.000 I agree with you, but did you sign the pledge as a condition of being in the debate that you'll support the eventual nominee?
00:12:09.000 I'm just trying to find the consistency with your stated positions.
00:12:13.000 I admire some of them, but some of them don't add up.
00:12:15.000 You got to think a little bit.
00:12:17.000 Lawyerly, here that I signed it saying I'm going to support the nominee of the party.
00:12:22.000 I do not believe that Donald Trump will be the nominee of the party, so I can feel comfortable in signing that pledge.
00:12:29.000 Is that Nicole Wallace?
00:12:30.000 Is that who that is?
00:12:31.000 She's the worst.
00:12:33.000 He's just lying.
00:12:35.000 Yeah, I'm going to sign the piece of paper, but I'm not going to support Donald Trump if he's going to be the nominee.
00:12:39.000 That's the point.
00:12:40.000 The point of signing the pledge, RNC, is that you're going to support the nominee regardless of who you think the nominee is going to be.
00:12:48.000 Ron DeSantis, play Cup 28.
00:12:50.000 What do you think about the fact that the former president is not going to be on the debate stage next to you and you won't get a chance to put this directly to him?
00:12:58.000 Everybody should debate.
00:13:00.000 Everybody has a responsibility to earn people's votes.
00:13:05.000 Nobody is entitled to anything in this world, less of all the Republican nomination for president.
00:13:12.000 So I'm going to be there.
00:13:13.000 I'm going to be making the case.
00:13:15.000 Okay.
00:13:17.000 To imply that Donald Trump is acting entitled.
00:13:22.000 After he has been president of the United States and he is up 50 points in the polls, who has honestly been campaigning like a maniac.
00:13:31.000 He's literally been campaigning like a maniac since January.
00:13:34.000 I mean that in the most admirable way.
00:13:36.000 The pace, the rallies, the interviews.
00:13:39.000 He's essentially an incumbent because 2020 was not an election.
00:13:43.000 That was a joke.
00:13:45.000 And for Ron DeSantis to say, well, you know, you have to earn, he is earning every vote.
00:13:51.000 This is not a debate.
00:13:54.000 This very well might be a vice presidential debate, but it's not a debate.
00:14:00.000 Donald Trump came, Governor DeSantis, and spoke at ActCon.
00:14:05.000 Vivek Ramaswamy came and spoke at Turning Point Action.
00:14:08.000 You did not.
00:14:10.000 So don't lecture us about earning votes.
00:14:12.000 You decided to snub our 7,000 activists and the millions of people watching online.
00:14:18.000 And it's not because of that, but it just so happens right to that same time, that was really the beginning of the end of your campaign, it looked like.
00:14:27.000 Yeah, earn every vote.
00:14:28.000 Right.
00:14:30.000 Adam Kinzinger is chiming in on his favorite network, Play Cut 23.
00:14:35.000 Well, look, I don't know how you win because I think the only guy that right now can win is Donald Trump.
00:14:41.000 There's a prisoner's dilemma because, you know, if you look at examples, people that have taken on the former president get either shunned from the party.
00:14:48.000 I'm sitting here.
00:14:49.000 Or, you know, they end up in single digits in the polling.
00:14:53.000 You know, it's interesting.
00:14:55.000 I usually am not really kind to Adam Kinzinger, but there's something that Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney have in common.
00:15:02.000 When they're asked about the Republican primary.
00:15:06.000 And it's really interesting.
00:15:09.000 Both Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney have been effectively kicked out of the Republican Party because they're philosophically incompatible with the new right.
00:15:17.000 And Liz Cheney has said that Donald Trump will be the nominee and Donald Trump could become president.
00:15:22.000 She doesn't want him to be, obviously.
00:15:24.000 Adam Kinzinger says the same thing because they felt the wrath of MAGA, they've seen what the Republican Party is.
00:15:33.000 They're wrong on so much stuff, but they're also politically not delusional because pain is a teacher.
00:15:43.000 And they've felt political pain.
00:15:44.000 They're out of the club.
00:15:45.000 They have to go to CNN to get a fair hearing.
00:15:48.000 No Fox News show is going to have Adam Kinzinger on or Liz Cheney.
00:15:51.000 They're done.
00:15:53.000 Harriet Hageman beat Liz Cheney by 50 points.
00:15:56.000 Adam Kinzinger resigned in disgrace because he didn't want the humiliation.
00:15:59.000 So Adam Kinzinger actually has a much better finger on the pulse of the Republican primary, Liz Cheney does.
00:16:06.000 Than some of these people running for the president.
00:16:08.000 They'll learn.
00:16:10.000 They'll learn.
00:16:11.000 Asa Hutchinson, Chris Christie, Mike Pence, they'll learn.
00:16:16.000 But why don't they look at Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger and say, huh, I don't want to become that?
00:16:22.000 Because a lot of their consultants are getting very rich, very wealthy off of their quest to finish fourth in Iowa.
00:16:32.000 Balance of Nature, changing the world one life at a time.
00:16:35.000 I try to take care of myself, I try to eat right.
00:16:38.000 And I love fruits and vegetables.
00:16:40.000 I'd rather have them than anything else, but I know I don't get nearly enough.
00:16:43.000 So I thought I'll try it for two months and no harm, no foul.
00:16:47.000 If it doesn't work after that, then I've tried it and at least I know.
00:16:51.000 Within two weeks, I noticed a huge difference in my energy, sleeping better at night, and just energy.
00:16:57.000 I would get up in the morning and get up, not just sit around.
00:17:02.000 You guys have got to try this.
00:17:03.000 You have to try it.
00:17:04.000 You owe it to yourself to try it.
00:17:06.000 The wife and I both think it's done a lot of good.
00:17:08.000 We both think it's It's improved your overall day to day, how you feel.
00:17:14.000 And we've turned everybody onto it.
00:17:16.000 Our kids are on it.
00:17:17.000 We've got brothers and sisters that are on it.
00:17:19.000 We've got some neighbors we've turned onto it.
00:17:22.000 So we're very pleased with the product and the results.
00:17:25.000 It's not like you're Superman, but you definitely know you're healthier.
00:17:29.000 You're going to lose weight.
00:17:30.000 And I've never heard that said in any of the commercials, but by golly, you do.
00:17:34.000 I work in a school.
00:17:35.000 So I'm around like 1,000 kids a day constantly.
00:17:38.000 And so I wash my hands and use alcohol on them.
00:17:42.000 Probably 100 times a day or better.
00:17:44.000 And my hands are always cracking open and splitting.
00:17:47.000 And I did not have that this entire winter.
00:17:50.000 And I bet you anything, this is me, I bet you anything it's balance of nature because it's the only thing I've done different.
00:17:56.000 Like the guy on your commercial says, I'm going to keep on taking it the rest of my life.
00:18:00.000 And I feel the same way.
00:18:01.000 It's going really good.
00:18:02.000 I mean, I feel better.
00:18:04.000 I've got more energy and, you know, I can go through my day better.
00:18:08.000 Start your journey to better health with balance of nature.

00:18:35.000 Joining us now is Senator Clint Dixon as State Senator I's new panel as a way to punish Big Fanny Willis over Trump indictments.
00:18:46.000 Senator Dixon, welcome to the program.
00:18:48.000 Tell us about your plan.
00:18:49.000 Yes, thank you so much for having me on the show today.
00:18:53.000 You know, we've had some of my Senate colleagues, or one of my Senate colleagues, you know, asking or calling for a special session.
00:19:00.000 And, you know, unfortunately, you know, a lot of us are frustrated by the Fulton County indictments handed down last week, which, you know, is clearly all about Fannie Willis and her trying to elevate her celebrity status in the leftist media.
00:19:16.000 And, you know, clearly, you know, there's no option for us to have a special session, in my opinion.
00:19:22.000 What we would have to do, it would be to call a special session by the legislature.
00:19:27.000 It would take a three fifths majority vote from the House and the Senate.
00:19:31.000 And we clearly just do not have those numbers in the Georgia legislature at this time.
00:19:37.000 Oh, so then what is your plan then, since you do not have the votes?
00:19:42.000 So the clear path to take any action would be this oversight commission that was created by SB 92 last year.
00:19:51.000 And that would be a clear path to have an investigation done.
00:19:56.000 On her lack of upholding her office and doing her duties.
00:20:01.000 So, Georgia has a newly created law enabling a panel to remove DAs who are dear elect or unethical in their duties.
00:20:08.000 So, the panel came into existence last July.
00:20:10.000 So, walk us through the process or what needs to happen for this to become a reality.
00:20:15.000 Yeah, so the panel has come into fruition in July.
00:20:20.000 It will be set in place by sometime this fall or in October.
00:20:25.000 And then, any citizen, not just an elected official, but any citizen could.
00:20:30.000 Asked for an investigation on a DA in this case as well, where clearly they're going after this is all politically motivated, and where also should be investigating the serious crimes that are happening in Fulton County and putting her, the taxpayer dollars and her forces towards trying to make Fulton County a safer place to live.
00:20:50.000 So, do you anticipate this to be successful?
00:20:54.000 What is the likelihood that you think that Fannie Willis can get removed?
00:20:58.000 Unfortunately, the legislature, we do not have purview over that.
00:21:02.000 It would be this commission.
00:21:03.000 And, you know, what I would like to ask was for them to investigate and it would be up to them, uh, to do any type of removal or any further investigations.
00:21:12.000 And, and who, who would be, who would be on this panel?
00:21:15.000 Uh, they're still forming that panel.
00:21:17.000 Uh, don't have all of the names, uh, that have been appointed to it yet.
00:21:21.000 Uh, not sure they've all been selected, but it is set to be selected and, you know, ready to be in full operation to do investigations by sometime in October is what I've been told.
00:21:31.000 How can the, uh, Georgia grassroots assist you or help you or the audience with this?
00:21:37.000 Yeah, I would say.
00:21:37.000 I mean, the biggest thing is to reach out, and I'll be happy once this panel is put together to get contact info, phone numbers, or emails where they can reach out to the panel and ask for investigations as well.
00:21:47.000 I think the more folks that get involved in this, you know, the more, you know, opportunities we have for some type of justice here.
00:21:55.000 I sure hope so.
00:21:56.000 Senator Clint Dixon, thank you so much.
00:21:57.000 And we're going to be watching very closely.
00:21:59.000 Thank you.
00:22:00.000 Thank you.
00:22:01.000 All eyes really are in Fulton County.
00:22:03.000 And I got to be honest, we have to show every single constitutional measure possible.
00:22:07.000 I.
00:22:08.000 It is an open mystery what has happened in the great state of Georgia.
00:22:13.000 Georgia was a deep red state.
00:22:15.000 One of the reasons is that in 2018, 247,000 people voted by mail.
00:22:21.000 In 2020, 2.4 million people voted by mail.
00:22:24.000 You allow mass mail and voting with no checks, no balances, and relaxed signature verification, you go from a comfortable Republican state to a blue state.
00:22:33.000 That is the Colorado blueprint.
00:22:35.000 Don't believe me, read the book blueprint.
00:22:36.000 So they did it in Washington, they did it in Oregon, they're trying in Arizona.
00:22:41.000 You allow mass mail in voting, and there is something really weird in the water in Georgia politics.
00:22:46.000 Great people in Georgia, great culture, awful politics.
00:22:51.000 Awful politics.
00:22:53.000 We see it time and time again, and the country has fallen apart as Georgia falls apart.
00:22:56.000 One of the reasons why Georgia has been falling apart is they've allowed all these Hollywood elites and liberals to come in with tax benefits.
00:23:05.000 They recruited, they actively recruited Hollywood to set up studios in Georgia.
00:23:10.000 Oh, it's going to be great for economic growth.
00:23:11.000 Now they have.
00:23:13.000 An entire multi thousand person infrastructure of the wokest, most liberal, rich actors, actresses, designers, and that whole community in Atlanta.
00:23:28.000 Atlanta was a boom town.
00:23:30.000 And now we wonder why Georgia has fallen apart.
00:23:35.000 If you live in Georgia, you've got to get your act together.
00:23:37.000 We're here to help you guys.
00:23:39.000 But it is one of the most disappointing political situations.
00:23:44.000 Ribbon cutting Republicans, as we call them.
00:23:46.000 All right, I want to play some more tape here as we kind of dance through some of these stories.
00:23:53.000 Let's play Cut 29, please.
00:23:55.000 I mean, but the thing about it is, one of the things that I have noticed is that the MAGA people in general, including at the Capitol, were definitely treated differently.
00:24:03.000 I mean, there was no big wagon where they were throwing them in after they've sacked the Capitol.
00:24:08.000 They went home.
00:24:09.000 And now you have one of them who was allowed to go home for two years, and now he's gone.
00:24:14.000 I mean, good luck catching him.
00:24:15.000 Maybe he's in Russia with Putin.
00:24:16.000 I mean, who knows where he is.
00:24:18.000 But I mean, it does seem to me, and you can tell me if I'm wrong and talk.
00:24:21.000 Be down if I'm wrong.
00:24:22.000 They are getting special treatment all the way down to the bottom.
00:24:26.000 They've had lighter sentences, per some legal experts, than you would have gotten for assault and assaulting a police officer.
00:24:32.000 Some of them have gotten months rather than years in prison.
00:24:35.000 In general, I feel like they have been treated from the bottom guy all the way to Trump very, very differently than a normal person would.
00:24:43.000 They have been treated differently, Joy Reid.
00:24:44.000 They've had the entire full force of the federal government thrown at them.
00:24:48.000 We have pre trial detention, we now have pictures.
00:24:53.000 Of January 6th defendants sleeping on what would be called a doormat on the floor.
00:25:01.000 If we treated terrorists that way, the ACLU and the Human Rights Campaign would be suing.
00:25:06.000 And yet, for pretrial detention for January 6th defendants, they don't care.
00:25:11.000 They have been treated differently.
00:25:13.000 Over 1,300 people have been arrested in one of the most wide sweeping dragnets.
00:25:20.000 And if Democrats storm the Capitol in Tennessee, they don't care.
00:25:23.000 If Democrats storm the Capitol, In Sacramento, they don't care.
00:25:26.000 If Democrats attack the Capitol in Arizona, they don't care.
00:25:31.000 A national disgrace, photos leaked of January 6th prisoner abuse, tortured five months in isolation in a closet room with a light and a bucket for a toilet.
00:25:41.000 Let's get this picture up on screen.
00:25:43.000 Ryan Samsell has been held in prison without trial now since January 2021.
00:25:51.000 Take a look at that.
00:25:51.000 Joy Reid says they've been getting preferential treatment.
00:25:55.000 Joy Reid says that they're doing wonderful.
00:25:56.000 Joy Reid says that they're getting a special sweetheart deal.
00:26:00.000 Joy Reid, how would you like to spend five months in an isolation closet with a bucket as a toilet?
00:26:07.000 Joy Reid is basically saying anything absent of firing squads, she thinks that it's not fair and equitable treatment.
00:26:13.000 Donald Trump's judge in his D.C. case is over the DOJ's recommendations.
00:26:24.000 DOJ comes in and says, We think this defendant should be six years.
00:26:28.000 She goes eight years.
00:26:29.000 Chutkin.
00:26:31.000 And Joy Reid says there's been preferential treatment, special treatment all across the board.
00:26:38.000 And the story, last night as I was in Albuquerque, New Mexico, it was really something to me.
00:26:43.000 I said, Boy, I have to do a better job.
00:26:44.000 It was a teaching moment for me, it was a learning moment for me.
00:26:48.000 So we have to do a better job.
00:26:49.000 So we're going to do a whole show.
00:26:50.000 I'm going to travel about this one story.
00:26:53.000 I asked by a show of hands, we had thousands of people there, how many people knew it was happening in the Michigan alternate elector story?
00:26:59.000 A couple of hands went up.
00:27:02.000 And I said, okay, we have to do a better job.
00:27:04.000 We have to do a much better job.
00:27:06.000 We have not done a good job.
00:27:07.000 This is, and this is actually been something I've been wanting to bring in, and this is a perfect time.
00:27:12.000 This is the casualty of not having Tucker Carlson every night.
00:27:17.000 If Tucker was on TV, every hand would go up.
00:27:20.000 If Tucker was on TV, he was a top of funnel zeitgeist maestro.
00:27:25.000 Isn't it interesting how they took out Tucker, took out O'Keeffe, indict the alternate electors, indict Trump?
00:27:31.000 Do you think they have a plan paying attention yet?
00:27:34.000 If Tucker was on TV, you got to wonder would these summer of indictments actually have happened the way it was?
00:27:40.000 Maybe, maybe not.
00:27:42.000 I do know this that Tucker not being on his time slot at 8 p.m. every single night Eastern, it's made it a lot easier for these tyrants to march without any sort of check and balance.
00:27:53.000 And yes, Tucker did do interviews with Steve Sund, Capitol Hill Police Chief, on January 6th.
00:27:57.000 And I mean this lovingly.
00:28:00.000 But I can't tell you how many emails you get freedom at charliekirk.com of people saying, Charlie, I can't find Tucker.
00:28:04.000 Where has he gone?
00:28:04.000 They do not hear about Tucker, even though he's on X or Twitter.
00:28:07.000 And I can't stand that it's called X.
00:28:09.000 It feels like a pornography website.
00:28:10.000 It's ridiculous.
00:28:11.000 Twitter.
00:28:13.000 So, if you're not, unfortunately, there's a huge portion of the population that only watches cable TV.
00:28:17.000 That's it.
00:28:17.000 They're not going to go watch on X Twitter.
00:28:23.000 The Michigan alternate elector story is one of the cruelest stories.
00:28:26.000 And a majority of the grassroots patriots, and I loved them last night, and I blame myself, not them.
00:28:30.000 I said, I have to do a better job of talking about this.
00:28:33.000 16 senior citizens, including Rose Rook from Paw Paw, Michigan, 81 years old, is going to face 50 to 60 years in prison.
00:28:40.000 She will die in prison for what?
00:28:42.000 Did she burn down a Wendy's?
00:28:43.000 Loot?
00:28:43.000 Arson?
00:28:44.000 Rape?
00:28:44.000 Murder?
00:28:45.000 No, she signed a piece of paper which was her constitutional right to be an alternate elector.
00:28:49.000 The cruelty is the point.
00:28:51.000 Show trial, Soviet style.
00:28:53.000 Put them on display, chill the speech, make people afraid, and create symbols that if you dare, dare question the regime, as Rose Rook of Paw Paw, Michigan did, 81 year old patriot, we will make you suffer and anyone in your life suffer.
00:29:13.000 But Joy Reid says that they're getting a sweetheart deal.
00:29:18.000 I'd love for Joy Reid to meet Rose Rook and wonder if she's getting a sweetheart deal.
00:29:22.000 But deep down, Joy Reid wants revenge.
00:29:24.000 And you know what type of revenge Joy Reid wants.
00:29:26.000 She's an angry person.
00:29:28.000 And I'll let you guess.
00:29:32.000 If Marxism ever comes to America, it will come not via the Reds, but by the Greens.
00:29:40.000 We have been saying this for quite some time.
00:29:42.000 And it is here, I'm telling you, if I were to just warn you, the American conservative community is woefully unprepared.
00:29:52.000 To fight the Greens.
00:29:54.000 The Greens are on the march.
00:29:56.000 Listen to them carefully.
00:29:58.000 Let me just compliment the bad guys for a second on how brilliant the climate change thing is.
00:30:03.000 The climate change thing, first, they are right no matter what happens.
00:30:08.000 It gets warmer, they are right.
00:30:09.000 It gets colder, they are right.
00:30:11.000 It stays the same, they are right.
00:30:13.000 So there is zero precision.
00:30:16.000 There doesn't need to be.
00:30:17.000 Because by definition, they say that climate change is unpredictable.
00:30:22.000 So they've selected.
00:30:24.000 A crisis that no matter what happens, they're going to be looking as if they're right.
00:30:30.000 Number two, every single quote unquote solution, and they're not solutions, is the American people having less freedom, less mobility, less liberty.
00:30:40.000 Every single one.
00:30:42.000 And they don't actually want a better environment.
00:30:47.000 They don't.
00:30:48.000 One of the things that the right is getting better at is calling their bluff.
00:30:51.000 Washington Post Republicans want to plant a trillion trees.
00:30:54.000 Climate scientists are skeptical.
00:30:57.000 Oh, so you don't want trees.
00:30:58.000 Even though trees reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, Washington Post is attacking the idea of planting a trillion trees.
00:31:06.000 So, maybe it's not about trees, it's not about carbon, it's about freedom.
00:31:11.000 This is the last thing Rush Limbaugh said in his last public address at a Turning Point USA event.
00:31:15.000 We've played the tape before, we don't need to play it today, but it's worthy of just understanding.
00:31:19.000 Rush Limbaugh, in front of a massive audience of young people, understood that if Marxism comes to America, it will not come through the Reds, it will come through the Greens.
00:31:27.000 And they are turning up the temperature with their intensity of the crisis.
00:31:31.000 In fact, they believe, and I've seen this with young people on a college campus, and I asked them plainly and asked them simply.
00:31:40.000 What is a bigger threat to the American Republic or to your future?
00:31:45.000 Global warming or the Chinese Communist Party?
00:31:47.000 And they say global warming and climate change every single time.
00:31:52.000 Play Cut 25.
00:31:54.000 Former DHS Secretary Jay Johnson, someone who has held your role before, has told me he believes the climate crisis may be the greatest threat to U.S. national security.
00:32:05.000 Do you agree with that?
00:32:08.000 I think it is one of the most prominent threats that we face.
00:32:11.000 The frequency and gravity of of extreme weather events in the United States and around the world is one of the greatest challenges that the globe currently encounters.
00:32:24.000 And we need to work together as a community of people across the world to address this.
00:32:30.000 We have millions of people waltzing across the southern border.
00:32:33.000 And we have the DHS secretary saying that the gravity and the severity of the climate crisis, wake up everybody, Marxism will come via the green agenda.
00:32:42.000 Biden very well might declare A national climate emergency to further the Green New Deal by non democratic means, just like COVID.
00:32:49.000 We've been saying this for a while, and the American right has not prepared for this.
00:32:53.000 Just like how we weren't prepared for the COVID thing, and it took a while for us to catch up.
00:32:57.000 I am pulling the alarm right now.
00:32:59.000 I am trying to tell you guys the mass tyrannical authoritarian power grab.
00:33:05.000 First it was health, then it was race, then it was health again, then it was lawfare.
00:33:10.000 You're living through lawfare, right?
00:33:12.000 So if we were just kind of synthesize it, the Cultural Revolution goes in phases.
00:33:16.000 First was health.
00:33:17.000 Than race, than lawfare, than climate.
00:33:22.000 You're living through lawfare.
00:33:24.000 We're unprepared for that.
00:33:25.000 Do you notice how unprepared we are for all this stuff?
00:33:27.000 It's because we don't study the left.
00:33:28.000 We don't take them when they actually tell us who they are.
00:33:30.000 We're always playing defense.
00:33:31.000 We're getting better.
00:33:32.000 We are getting better.
00:33:33.000 I've seen improvements.
00:33:34.000 We're not taking the race stuff anymore.
00:33:36.000 We're rejecting the affirmative action stuff.
00:33:38.000 Well, we have zero understanding of how aggressive the green agenda will become.
00:33:43.000 Zero.
00:33:45.000 What does decarbonize our economy mean?
00:33:46.000 It means kill people.
00:33:49.000 Carbon is life.
00:33:50.000 Someone should say to Jay Inslee, hey, what is a human being made of?
00:33:53.000 You want less carbon?
00:33:54.000 How about less human beings?
00:33:57.000 Play Cut 30.
00:33:58.000 Because the fact of the matter is there's a beast at our door, and that's the beast of climate change.
00:34:04.000 It seems like the whole world is on fire.
00:34:06.000 We need to defend ourselves from climate change.
00:34:09.000 We need to decarbonize our economy so these fires don't ravage us.
00:34:13.000 There's not enough fire trucks in the world to protect us if we don't stop climate change.
00:34:19.000 They are talking as if this is an alien invasion.
00:34:22.000 They're using military language against the weather.
00:34:26.000 They're using military, same thing they use with COVID enemy, defend, fight, war.
00:34:33.000 It's coming.
00:34:35.000 I hope the conservative movement starts to prepare the defenses, that we start to man the ramparts, because the communist revolution is going to continue.
00:34:44.000 You're living through the Cultural Revolution, you're living through an act of measure, and the next phase after lawfare is going to be climate.
00:34:52.000 You heard it here first.
