00:02:02.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:40.000What would the playbook be if you were trying to eliminate a large portion of the population?
00:02:46.000What's so incredible to me is how close we are in historical terms, meaning not so far away from the intentional attempt to eliminate entire races of people.
00:03:04.000This is not just done by the National Socialist Workers' Party in the 1930s and 1940s in Germany, despicably and evil.
00:03:11.000But it was also attempted to be done by Mao Se Tong and Joseph Stalin.
00:03:16.000If the 20th century told us anything, it told us a couple things.
00:03:19.000As Alexander Solshenitsyn famously wrote in the Gulag Archipelago, he said that all of this was thanks to ideology.
00:03:26.000Now, Alexander Solshenitsyn reflected in the Gulag Archipelago, which I encourage you to read.
00:03:32.000He went into a deep reflection saying, What did I personally do that might have contributed to this great evil?
00:03:42.000And actually, that book was largely responsible for the downfall of the Soviet Union.
00:03:48.000There's another great book by Victor Frankl, which is called Man's Search for Meaning.
00:03:55.000By writing that book, he ended up starting a whole new psychological kind of school of thought called logotherapy, the will to meaning.
00:04:08.000Because you have the will to power, the will to pleasure.
00:04:10.000He says that we as humans have a moral obligation to have a will to meaning.
00:04:15.000Viktor Frankl famously said in Man's Search for Meaning, there are only two types of people, the decent and the indecent.
00:04:23.000We are so close to the committed and attempted elimination of entire groups of people.
00:04:31.000Why is it that anytime anyone says that the government might be trying to do that again, they're called a conspiracy theorist and you're not even allowed to talk about it?
00:04:41.000It's a very serious question because we still have living members today that survived concentration camps, that survived the attempted elimination of kulaks in the Soviet Union.
00:04:57.000One of our good friends here is Joseph Bondarenko, who spent 23 hours in a Soviet jail for 10 years straight for preaching the gospel.
00:05:22.000And I think part of it is that the American ruling class, they actually do want the re-implementation of this sort of authoritarianism and elimination.
00:05:37.000There's an article by Gregory H. Stanton called 10 Stages of Genocide.
00:07:09.000The state bureaucracy begins actively designing killing plans for the undesirables.
00:07:15.000Now you might say, well, Charlie, that isn't happening.
00:07:17.000Well, then how do you explain the permanent internment of people that went into the U.S. Capitol building on January 6th and took selfies, and they're not allowed to leave the Washington, D.C. pit of hell jail that could be closely associated with Gitmo.
00:08:11.000The massacre begins and government actors justify their mass murder as necessary.
00:08:14.000Extermination of non-humans who deserve to be killed.
00:08:19.000Now, of course, we don't, it's not like we have writers of The Atlantic who say that we should quietly triage unvaccinated people in hospitals.
00:09:40.000And they become acquainted with that thought, familiar with the idea that they are different people, that they are alien people, that they are the people that carry germs that cause pandemics.
00:11:02.000I want you to go look in the eyes of Joseph Bondaranko, KGB most wanted, pastor who spent nearly a decade in prison for preaching the gospel, who looks me in the eyes and looks our team in the eyes, trembling with fear, saying, what is happening in America is what I lived through.
00:11:36.000On a daily basis, people are being inundated with ads for overpriced boxers with some sort of slick ad campaign, and some would say innuendos.
00:11:44.000Personally speaking, I prefer to keep this topic very private, but I'm happy to tell you about a company that is a great product and shares our values.
00:11:51.000I want to tell you about Under Tack, the only men's basic brand that is unapologetically Christian, pro-American, pro-military, very, very proud, pro-2A.
00:11:59.000They put comfort and functionality first by integrating a quick release fly and secret pocket in extra-wide waistband for cash or tactical necessities.
00:12:07.000They're also antibacterial, anti-pilling, and the moisture-wicking fabric is super soft and comfortable.
00:12:12.000Under Tech is durable, fade-resistant, shrink-resistant, and ultra-lightweight.
00:12:16.000Here's the best part: they are 30% less expensive than the competition.
00:12:20.000Go to undertack.com, that's undertakwithac.com right now as a special Christmas offer.
00:12:25.000Get 20% off with the offer code Kirk20.
00:13:31.000Little did I know that would be a harbinger of things to come.
00:13:34.000Now, you would think Austria, Germany, those that region of the world would be a little bit sensitive.
00:13:45.000Let's just say the wound would be a little tender around locking people in their homes.
00:13:51.000Let's just say that they haven't even let 100 years pass until they get right back in the muscle memory of trying to tyrannize their own citizenry.
00:14:04.000So if you were to go to Vienna right now and you'd want to leave the home, your home, you're breaking the law.
00:14:12.000Watch this clip of two young girls in Vienna doing just that.
00:14:19.000So Reyes and I are out in beautiful Vienna, and it's actually a crime for us to be outside now because today is the first day that the nationwide lockdown has ended, but it has transformed into a lockdown solidity for the unvaccinated.
00:14:34.000So for us to be outside right now is breaking the law because we're not vaccinated.
00:14:39.000So just standing here breathing in 2021 as an unvaccinated person is a crime in Vienna.
00:14:47.000In Germany, they are thinking about outlawing Telegram, a messaging service, because it's spreading disinformation.
00:14:58.000Now, we must understand that this is an international effort to quash dissent.
00:15:07.000But the really interesting thing, and you see this in what they're trying to do with the January 6th Committee, we're going to be joined by Sean Davis from the Federalist in the next segment to help us walk through that.
00:15:18.000Is that if you are unsuccessful in quashing dissent, if you are unsuccessful in thwarting a movement of people, it only grows.
00:15:34.000And so the Democrats attempt right now to try and chill political speech, which is what they did, by the way, through the National School Board Association of America letter.
00:15:44.000You see, this is happening at every turn, not just in Austria, not just in Australia, COVID concentration camps, which they have in Australia, not just in Austria where you can't leave your home.
00:15:54.000In Santa Cruz, California, a recent measure has just been said that if you have a visitor in your home, everyone must wear a mask.
00:16:03.000Could you imagine being a person that reads that from the Santa Cruz government and says, yeah, that's reasonable.
00:16:08.000It's like, yeah, I think that makes sense.
00:16:16.000The attempt by the regime to crush you is going to fail.
00:16:27.000We have covered in great detail the top-down revolution happening in America: of the powerful trying to crush the weak, of the rich trying to crush the poor, of the informed, I want to say the informed, the intelligentsia trying to crush the muscular class.
00:16:43.000But they're doing so clumsily, inaccurately, not precisely.
00:16:52.000And as a byproduct of that, this will be a failed attempt to keep you in your box.
00:16:59.000This will be a failed attempt to try and shut you up.
00:17:07.000What the rulers are underestimating is they are underestimating people's desire right now to push back against these totalitarian governments.
00:17:17.000Now, I'm going to stop short of saying people's desire to be free because there's plenty of people that are perfectly fine being locked in Vienna, Austria, and they don't want to leave their home.
00:17:29.000But there's more and more people that are growing fed up with it, that are seeing the moving of the goalposts, and that want to do something about it.
00:17:39.000The regime is about to have the greatest, most epic, public swing and amiss of any organized power structure in modern political history.
00:17:53.000They're trying to shut you up, and the opposite is happening.

00:19:05.000There has been an extraordinary amount of drama in the last couple of days around the January 6th committee, the Mark Meadows news, the Bannon news.
00:19:14.000But breaking the last 24 hours has just been a very confusing development of Mark Meadows handing over text messages and then being found in contempt of Congress despite handing over text messages.
00:20:07.000So on Monday night during one of these, you know, very dramatic primetime hearings that Adam Schiff and his colleagues love to do, Schiff purported to read and show on screen a whole bunch of text messages that he had obtained from lawmakers who were texting with Meadows on January 5th and January 6th.
00:20:25.000And according to Schiff, this shows that they're all traitors and treasonous and shouldn't be in Congress and blah, blah, blah.
00:20:33.000But what we learned is that one text in particular was not at all what Schiff and the January 6th committee purported it to be.
00:20:42.000In fact, we were able to review the full text chain, the full text message that Schiff had allegedly read and show that Schiff had doctored the text.
00:20:52.000He had cut out multiple paragraphs of this particular text from Jim Jordan to Mark Meadows.
00:20:58.000He had completely eliminated one sentence from a key paragraph, added punctuation where there was none.
00:21:07.000But the most interesting thing isn't how he doctored this text message to have it say something it didn't.
00:21:14.000It was that Jim Jordan didn't even write this particular text message that Schiff was going on about.
00:21:21.000What Jordan had done was forwarded a text, a three-paragraph summary from a lawyer who was summarizing his own four-page legal memorandum on all the electoral vote, Electoral College certification stuff that was happening in the House.
00:21:37.000So not only did Schiff doctor this thing, he attributed to Jordan something he didn't even write.
00:21:42.000Jordan was just forwarding to Meadows this summary written by an attorney of that attorney's own lengthy legal memorandum.
00:21:51.000And it just goes to show what an absolute farce Adam Schiff is.
00:21:55.000We know he's a joke, but what a farce this January 6th committee is.
00:22:05.000This one reads, on January 6th, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence, as president of the Senate should call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all.
00:22:22.000You can see why this is so critical to ask Mr. Meadows about.
00:22:26.000About a lawmaker suggesting that the former vice president simply throw out votes that he unilaterally deems unconstitutional in order to overturn a presidential election and subvert the will of the American people.
00:23:19.000Jim Jordan didn't tell Meadows to say that.
00:23:24.000He was forwarding a three-paragraph summary of a legal memorandum from a very well-respected DC attorney.
00:23:31.000He used to be the inspector general of the Department of Defense.
00:23:34.000And he did this under the guise of proving that it's not just Trump who's awful and treasonous and has to go to prison, but everyone in Congress who agreed that the election had problems.
00:23:51.000It won't end with people in Congress voted on by the people they represent.
00:23:57.000It's going to end with this Congress and all their cronies and big tech and media trying to deplatform actual voters and trying to unperson actual voters who supported Trump.
00:24:06.000That's always where this was going to end, is they don't want to give people the ability to vote for someone that the Democrat Party and the big tech oligarchs don't want you to vote for.
00:24:15.000Yeah, and everyone who texts with Jim Jordan knows that he actually just sends like one-word texts like, yes, call me, like not three-paragraph nerdy legal texts.
00:24:24.000So this was forwarded by somebody else and was intentionally trying to be trying to be misrepresented by this committee.
00:24:33.000Also, we saw Liz Cheney read off text messages that Mark Meadows supplied to the committee from Donald Trump Jr., from Brian Kilmead, from Sean Hannity and Laura Ingram.
00:24:46.000Sean, what she read in that committee, it kind of undermined their entire narrative, didn't it?
00:25:23.000And when you look at the text that Cheney read of various people kind of texting Donald Trump Jr. or texting Meadows saying, hey, this writing stuff is bad.
00:25:32.000You guys need to get on top of it and shut it down and say it's bad.
00:25:36.000That's the opposite of what the left and the Democrats and the turncoats like Cheney and Kinfinger have claimed.
00:25:41.000They have claimed from the beginning that Trump was all in on it and Meadows was all in on it and that the Republicans and the media were part of this plan and they were in on it.
00:25:50.000No, you have everyone texting them saying the same things they said during all the BLM riots, which is, hey, rioting is bad.
00:25:57.000We should do everything we can to make people not riot.
00:26:02.000It utterly obliterates their entire case against Trump.
00:26:07.000And this seems as if it's now becoming a broader, let's just say, committee, to put it nicely, Soviet show trial, to try and chill political speech and to try to basically persecute the non-believers.
00:26:53.000Well, first off, the committee is not even constitutionally or under the rules of the own house properly constituted.
00:27:01.000They're not following their own rules.
00:27:03.000They didn't follow the rules of the House.
00:27:05.000For example, the House standing rules require any committee that issues a subpoena to run the subpoena by and inform the ranking member of the committee.
00:27:15.000Well, on this committee, there is no ranking member because Nancy Pelosi banned the Republicans from appointing their own members to this committee.
00:27:22.000Instead, we have Liz Cheney, who's masquerading as a Republican.
00:27:44.000So Mark Meadows is challenging the entire thing in court, seeking an injunction against the House and potentially even the archives from supplying these records.
00:27:54.000And his attorney has actually made that point that in order for these to be considered valid, they had to have been issued in accordance with the rules, both of the Constitution and of the House.
00:28:05.000And, you know, the constitutional argument we can set aside.
00:28:08.000I think we can probably, we're probably all familiar with that.
00:28:11.000But on the House side, the committee, number one, doesn't have a valid legislative purpose, which is required for the Supreme Court for them to be able to do these kinds of inquisitions.
00:28:57.000This is a purely Democrat-run, Democrat-appointed inquisition that has no basis in law.
00:29:04.000And I think Democrats are in for a world of trouble when this thing actually starts moving through the courts.
00:29:10.000And I'm not talking about the DC district court, which will do what the Dems want, or the appellate court, which will probably do what the Dems want.
00:29:16.000This is going to be a very, very serious issue for the Supreme Court, especially in light of how they ruled on the Trump tax returns.
00:29:24.000And I mean, obviously, Democrats are willing to use political power.
00:29:28.000I don't know what they think Republicans are going to do when they get back political power.
00:29:32.000I think they just think that Republicans are so weak they would never do this again.
00:29:36.000This is really bad for the country, though, Sean.
00:29:38.000In one minute, can you just talk about that if all of a sudden you say Congress can now basically get into the private communications of opposing political parties?
00:29:49.000I mean, this is, I could use all the one word, you know, the kind of one-liners.
00:29:53.000It's a third world country, banana republic, but it kind of really is.
00:29:58.000And it's so, by the way, it's so much worse than just going after another party.
00:30:03.000They are going to the phone companies and thank phone companies, give us, yeah, give us all the records of these random people, not even in Congress, not candidates, not in the White House.
00:30:13.000Give us the records of these random people.
00:30:16.000Give us their bank transactions, their phone conversations.
00:30:42.000As we celebrate the Christmas season, we often pause to consider our many blessings.
00:30:46.000Hillsdale College wishes to thank you for standing with them as they celebrate over 177 years of blessings.
00:30:52.000Since 1844, the Beacon of the North, the last college, Hillsdale College, has held fast to its mission to provide the kind of education essential to preserving free government.
00:31:01.000And for decades, the college has extended its educational mission on behalf of liberty through a variety of outreach programs.
00:31:07.000Perhaps you receive in Primus for every month or have taken one of Hillsdale's excellent online courses or attended one of Hillsdale's free regional events.
00:31:14.000You know of Hillsdale's refusal to take even one penny of government money.
00:31:18.000This independence allows the college to focus on promoting its core purpose, learning, character, faith, and freedom without government interference.
00:31:24.000And no time in our nation's history has there been a greater need for this kind of classical liberal arts education that Hillsdale offers on its campuses and nationwide.
00:31:31.000So during this season of blessings, Hillsdale thanks you for partnership in extending its mission to the country.
00:31:36.000To learn more about Hillsdale College and take their online courses, the Aristotle course, the Winston Churchill course, the Dying Citizen course, which I'm about to wrap up with Victor Davis Hansen.
00:31:51.000For parents out there, require your children to take at least one Hillsdale course before they get any Christmas gifts.
00:31:57.000You see, I'm a very big fan of parents withholding good things unless kids do the necessary things.
00:32:05.000Kids shouldn't just get Christmas gifts because they exist.
00:32:07.000They should get Christmas gifts because they've earned them.
00:32:11.000And by earning them, they need to take Hillsdale online courses to learn about Western civilization, learn about God, learn about Genesis, the book of Genesis, the Constitution, and more.

00:32:27.000In order to win against the left, we must identify the threat and then do something about it.
00:32:34.000Ron DeSantis in Florida is one of those leaders.
00:32:38.000Despite being in a very contentious reelection campaign, not using that as an excuse for inaction, Ron DeSantis is doing more than ever to protect his voters and his constituents in Florida from the existential threat and cancer that is known as critical race theory.
00:32:53.000That is known also as the destruction of our history, our language, our culture, and who we are.
00:33:25.000And now he's gone on to be the most effective and conservative governor in America in a state that is a 50-50 state in a lot of different ways.
00:33:34.000Cut 49, Ron DeSantis articulates on how he does not want to let a militant form of Marxism take hold that is rooted in this destruction of American history.
00:33:45.000And so every time I play Ron DeSantis, there's a two-part dance we do.
00:33:51.000The compliment and then the why isn't everyone else saying this?
00:33:57.000You see these things throughout the country where they take down Thomas Jefferson's statute in New York City, where they take down Abraham Lincoln in Massachusetts, where they take George Washington's name off schools in California.
00:34:11.000You know, that is an attempt to erase history.
00:34:14.000They want to delegitimize the founding of the country and the institutions, and they basically want to replace it with a very militant form of leftism that would absolutely destroy this country if that ever took hold.
00:34:37.000For so many Republicans, they're too busy talking about corporate taxes and mass immigration.
00:34:43.000Ron DeSantis is willing to articulate that we got a serious threat.
00:34:50.000He continues by going in Cut 59, calls wokeism what it is, cultural Marxism, and how he banned critical race theory from public schools.
00:34:59.000And now he wants to use the Stop Woke Act, play cut 59.
00:35:03.000Now, with the rise of this woke ideology, is an attempt to really delegitimize our history and to delegitimize our institutions.
00:35:13.000And I view the wokeness as a form of cultural Marxism.
00:35:17.000I directed the Florida Department of Education to prohibit critical race theory in our K through 12 schools.
00:35:26.000By the way, the girl behind him is wearing a turning point USA shirt, the conservative shirt.
00:35:30.000I've worn that on air a couple times before.
00:35:33.000Leadership means being able to understand the issues in front of you and act on them quickly and prudently.
00:35:44.000Leadership is being willing to do the right thing regardless of the potential cost associated alongside of that.
00:35:53.000Ron DeSantis won by 33,000 votes in Florida.
00:35:57.000I guarantee you he's going to win by a lot more than that against Charlie Crist, one of the most popular and effective governors in America.
00:36:05.000But every governor needs to be doing exactly what Ron DeSantis is doing.
00:36:21.000You see, Ron DeSantis understands that a war is never won by constantly retreating and apologizing to the enemy.
00:36:31.000Ron DeSantis understands that if you articulate why you believe what you believe in a way that is calm, collected, and cool, that more people can actually come into your category.
00:36:45.000Registered Republican voters now outnumber Democrats in Florida.
00:36:50.000Yes, there's a lot of Republicans moving into Florida, but also Ron DeSantis is moving Democrats into the Republican column because say, I like him.
