00:00:00.000Today in the Charlie Kirk Show, producer Andrew co-pilots as we walk through the latest news with the non-binary nuclear waste expert arrested for theft.
00:01:04.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:53.000So, Clint, tell us about kind of who is eligible for this tax relief money.
00:01:59.000It's an extraordinary thing that most people don't know about.
00:02:03.000So, the employee retention credit is a partial refund of the wages that were paid to W-2 employees during the six quarters of the pandemic, as defined by, as you mentioned, the 2020 COVID relief bill, or the CARES Act is what it was called.
00:02:21.000And it was a $2.2 trillion bill put forth by the Trump administration.
00:02:26.000And the employee retention credit was something that wasn't made very much use of for quite some time, but things have changed dramatically.
00:02:34.000And we're here to help folks get qualified for this credit that can help them so much.
00:02:48.000I'm shocked at how much money actually is out there.
00:02:51.000And again, at Turning Point USA, we didn't accept any of the PPP money.
00:02:56.000However, it is out there for a lot of hardworking people that might want it and need it and might as well have good, hardworking patriots and business owners benefit from this.
00:03:05.000So kind of talk about who appropriated it and talk more about the qualifications around it.
00:03:13.000So this was, again, part of the CARES Act in 2020.
00:03:17.000It was the federal government's response to the COVID pandemic.
00:03:22.000And so the thing that, as you mentioned, the thing that most people are well aware of were the PPP loans.
00:03:41.00016 million businesses qualified and received PPP funds.
00:03:45.000About 80% of that were loans that were forgiven.
00:03:49.000And the reason that it was out there and so prevalent was because it was put out through the financial system.
00:03:55.000And so everybody remembers that their bank and all the financial institutions they were associated with were sending them emails and everything about the PPP loans.
00:04:04.000Meanwhile, as that was going on, there was another program hidden in plain view, as so many things that you talk about are just like that.
00:04:11.000Hidden behind the PPP loan program was something called the Employee Retention Credit Program.
00:04:17.000And the ERC, again, it's a partial refund of wages paid.
00:04:22.000to those W-2 employees of business owners during the time of the pandemic.
00:04:27.000It's kind of like a reward for those businesses that stayed open and those businesses that retained their employees during the pandemic, as difficult as it might have been.
00:04:36.000Many businesses were losing money and still paying those W-2 employees versus laying them off.
00:04:41.000And so this is a way for them to recover some of the losses that they had during that time.
00:04:49.000Virtually everybody who was impacted at this point by COVID during those six quarters.
00:04:56.000And again, the quarters were the second, third, and fourth quarter of 2020 and the first, second, and third quarter of 2021.
00:05:05.000And so any business that had W-2 employees during that time that was impacted by COVID in one way or another, the rules have expanded so greatly over the last couple of years that virtually 90 plus percent of all businesses can qualify to receive some of this employee retention credit.
00:05:23.000And our organization is here to help as many companies across the country and organizations, churches, charities.
00:05:31.000That's another change that was made to qualify for this credit.
00:06:06.000It's a refund of wages that were paid to those W-2 employees.
00:06:09.000And I did want to touch on just one point there that you made, Charlie, that you disagree with the spending.
00:06:14.000I don't know anyone that's more fiscally conservative than I am.
00:06:18.000And so I agree with you that inflation by creating dollars and putting them into the system is not the way to get out of anything, certainly.
00:06:26.000And so we're on the same page in regards to that.
00:06:28.000We don't have any control over what happens in that regard in terms of how many dollars the Federal Reserve pumps into our system.
00:06:35.000There's a lot of different mechanisms that have happened.
00:06:37.000And so I'm on the same page with you on that.
00:06:39.000However, I do realize that this is a program that's out there.
00:06:45.000And if we refuse to benefit from the inflation that has already happened, then we will be a victim of that inflation, as all of us have been over the past couple of years.
00:06:56.000And so I would encourage folks to think about that, understand that, yes, inflation is not great.
00:07:03.000And again, when I'm talking about inflation, I'm not talking about price inflation.
00:07:06.000I'm talking about the creation of more money and putting it into the system.
00:07:24.000And additionally, I mean, the big banks get bailouts, the airlines get bailouts.
00:07:30.000This is built for you, the carpenter, the plumber, the electrician.
00:07:34.000And so if it's morally consistent for you to do it, then so be it.
00:07:39.000I mean, you can all make your own decision.
00:07:40.000But if you're a business owner and you're struggling right now, which heck, with the energy costs, fuel costs, all this nonsense happening right there, it doesn't cost you anything.
00:08:02.000There's this is something that a lot of people are going to be hearing a lot about over the next year or two: the employee retention credit.
00:08:10.000And so there are a wide variety of companies out there and even CPAs.
00:08:17.000A whole lot of CPAs direct their clients to us and then ask the question, Can I send you more of my clients?
00:08:24.000Because they don't want to be involved in something that they're not experts in.
00:08:27.000It is something that is fairly technical in terms of helping people to get qualified.
00:08:31.000So we have a very easy step-by-step process to help people get qualified and understand the rules so that they can feel comfortable that they do in fact qualify.
00:08:40.000We have a questionnaire that we run three people through and we have people standing by right now.
00:08:47.000As a matter of fact, if people go to the website there, we do have a phone number.
00:08:51.000But as you can imagine, thousands and thousands and thousands of businesses and organizations try to contact us when we do a show like this.
00:09:27.000We'll give you an estimate of how much you can qualify for.
00:09:30.000And then the next step would be is that we would need to get some documents from you to substantiate the credit.
00:09:35.000And that would be some of your employment information in terms of 941 forms that are part of your tax return, as well as some payroll reports.
00:10:10.000And at that point, once we get to where we know the exact amount of credit that someone will qualify for, then we will then give them the opportunity to engage our services.
00:10:20.000And the fee is 15% of the amount that is received in a credit.
00:10:27.000And that can be paid out of the money that is received, that is received and processed by the IRS.

00:13:16.000And by the way, ever since the NFL started to institute the tie after the overtime, I thought it was the beginning of the end of national football.
00:13:24.000I just do as many overtimes as it takes as long as you don't have a tie.
00:13:28.000But if the United States doesn't win, they're done.
00:13:44.000We'll try not to get too distracted right now, but it's a, you know, it's a big, there's a lot of diplomatic, there's a lot of political implications in this.
00:13:51.000This is not just a bunch of guys running on the field.
00:14:39.000The Attorney General's office, the Election Integrity Unit, asked, demanded for a response from Maricopa County Board of Supervisors on what the heck happened on Election Day.
00:14:49.000And they gave them a short time window.
00:14:52.000Maricopa complained about the time window that they were given.
00:14:56.000And then they proceeded to call out Kelly Ward, Tyler Boyer, and Charlie Kirk, saying that it's all their fault for dissuading people from dropping their ballot in door three in box three.
00:15:08.000Well, if you actually go through the record, Charlie, and I did this as soon as these complaints were levied against you and Tyler and Kelly.
00:15:16.000On that same day, about an hour apart, you said the first tweet that you sent out was, please don't put it in box three.
00:16:01.000And there's one report from 11 independent Republican attorneys that they're part of the RNC, funded by the RNC, that have gone into Maricopa County and done their own poll, basically, where they went to about 100 and I think 11 voting centers, and they found that it was almost 63% of voting centers that were impacted, right?
00:16:23.000So we can argue all day about how widespread the problem was.
00:16:26.000It was way too, I mean, even if you go by their number, there was 30% and not 62.6%.
00:16:32.000It was still far too large of a problem.
00:16:35.000And they wonder why people are so fired up.
00:16:38.000People get angry for good reason when the person or the organization or the institution just refuses to take any semblance of responsibility.
00:16:52.000Right now, Bank of America has just lowered its 2022 forecast for the SP 500 by a whopping 900 points to 3,600.
00:17:02.000Saying we're headed for a recession this year, it said the new year target is the lowest on the street.
00:17:07.000This is not good news for those of you stuck in equities or anything tied to stock markets.
00:17:12.000I know thousands of people who have put their trust in Noble Gold to prevent losing money and the financial storm that is brewing.
00:17:18.000You can join them by calling their expert team.
00:17:20.000Noble Gold has recently voted the number one gold company in the country by Consumer Affairs.
00:17:25.000No call centers, no scripted response, no bull, just a straight, honest run through options so you can decide.
00:17:31.000And by the way, they're giving away a beautiful one-tenth of an ounce gold American Eagle coin with every qualifying IRA or 401k rollover this month.
00:19:12.000So we knew this person obviously had deep-seated mental problems, which, by the way, shouldn't make you necessarily sleep well at night.
00:19:19.000That one of the people that is very close to our nuclear reactors and the, I don't know, the thermonuclear capabilities of the American West is Sam Brinton.
00:19:30.000So what happened to him recently, Andrew?
00:19:36.000I think this guy obviously had some mental issues.
00:19:40.000And, you know, it all played into this whole season that we were living through under the Biden regime of Admiral Rachel Levine, also known as Richard Levine.
00:19:51.000You were kindly suspended from Twitter for dead naming Richard Levine.
00:20:05.000What people don't know about Sam Britton, which I think is interesting, in his spare time, Britton is a sex fetishist who hosts kink workshops where he encourages men to role play wearing dog masks.
00:20:47.000He's a member of a sacrilegious drag queen society called Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, which literally, Charlie, mocks Catholic nuns with names like Sister Porn again instead of born again, obviously.
00:21:10.000Yet, if you were on social media criticizing this person, you were said to be engaging in hate speech, right?
00:21:19.000It's one of these formations that the left constructs around our speech.
00:21:24.000So now we have this story breaking yesterday from Alpha News.
00:21:28.000Sam Britton has been charged with felony theft for stealing a woman's luggage at the Minneapolis airport.
00:21:36.000According to police reports, Britton walked up to the baggage claim and made off with a Vera Bradley roller bag.
00:21:43.000So this is a very expensive roller bag, designer roller bag.
00:21:47.000Sam Britton sees it, you know, obviously has a thing for women's clothing, women's fashion, takes it, security camera catches Sam Britton rolling off with it, identified through security footage, and then the police contact Britton.
00:25:14.000And, you know, I think we were, it was over Thanksgiving break that there was actually an academic out of, you're talking about Europe, it was out of England.
00:25:23.000I believe it was Oxford or Cambridge that basically wrote an op-ed saying, or some sort of paper saying that, you know, Jesus Christ was probably trans, right?
00:25:33.000And then you had the Club Q shooting, which we got lectured about this stochastic terrorism, I believe is the expression, meaning that conservatives on social media like yourself were, you know, targeting the trans community that was engaging in a family-friendly drag show for underage kids, obviously, coming to this Club Q, and that somebody targeted him for that because they're getting too much bullying on social media.
00:26:04.000Well, it turns out it was actually a non-binary shooter, right?
00:26:07.000And then you haven't heard about Club Q in the news at all recently.
00:26:13.000Balenciaga walks back the ad campaign, but only to find out that the person that was responsible, that their lead designer at Balenciaga is actually somebody that's been photographed holding red babies, like blood red babies in her arm.
00:27:11.000He's the most prolific state senator, I think, in the country.
00:27:15.000The guy has been massively, massively effective at getting basically pro-pedophilia laws passed.
00:27:24.000So there was a viral story yesterday where thousands of these pedophiles, convicted pedophiles, are getting released onto the streets of California without even serving a year in prison.
00:27:37.000And it's because he's he successfully passed a law that's that's diminishing the criminal effect of you know getting convicted of sexualizing or abusing young children.
00:27:48.000And this Scott Weiner has been photographed at these gay pride parades and different things wearing sort of like SM type costumes.
00:27:56.000And it's very, I mean, we probably could get a picture of it.
00:28:00.000I know you posted one on your Twitter, but I mean, this guy is also behind laws that allow parents that are disagreeing about the gender fluidity of their child, their child.
00:28:11.000One of the parents is able to basically kidnap the child, go to California, and get, I forget the expression actually right now, off the top of my hand, but essentially encouraging the trans identity of their child.
00:28:23.000Now, if one of the other parents disagrees, too bad.
00:28:26.000In California, there's now protections for that parent that kidnapped the child to go get the surgery or the hormonal treatment.
00:28:42.000He's also behind the guy behind the law that made softer penalties if you were convicted of intentionally spreading HIV.
00:28:52.000So this guy is basically behind any disgusting law that's been passed in California.
00:28:59.000The guy has got his hands deep into it and he leverages what you call the alphabet mafia, the power of the alphabet mafia to terrorize any sane legislator in the state of California.
00:30:52.000And her impact on young women, her impact on just fashion trends around the world is difficult to overstate.
00:31:01.000And yeah, Balenciaga, you know, they want you to believe that that pedophilic ad campaign was just sort of something they didn't really catch or they didn't realize.
00:31:13.000You know, going back to it, there was, if you zoomed in on some of the imagery of these children being sexualized, there was a Supreme Court decision that actually was a piece of paper in the background, but you could zoom in on it and actually see it.
00:31:31.000Which helped decriminalize some sort of child sex abuse.
00:31:34.000I wish I knew the background there, but these were very direct messages that they were putting in there.
00:31:40.000And, you know, I mentioned her name's Lota Volkova.
00:31:58.000There's something very, very sick going on at Balenciaga.
00:32:03.000And there's, you know, who knows what's behind it?
00:32:06.000You know, they, the, the mainstream media likes to target, likes to target people that call this stuff out.
00:32:13.000And they, they, you know, they mention like Q or whatever.
00:32:17.000I mean, you know, we think, we think that stuff's, you know, mostly, mostly crazy, right?
00:32:23.000But that being said, it's like, you know, and they, and they, they dismiss these challenges to this weird pedophilic culture that just seems to be normalized.
00:32:32.000And look, I mean, there's if you read the mockeries of what they call the media calls QAnon and all that.
00:32:41.000They say a lot of people in the Q community, whatever that means, right?
00:32:47.000Are always so concerned and worried that there's a pedophilic underpinning of our society.
00:33:05.000To your point, it's like, look at what, you know, the DOJ is more concerned about Elon Musk liberating Twitter than they are about Jeffrey Edison.
00:33:15.000Well, I mean, you should tweet that they're more, they're more concerned about what's happening, what's being cleaned up on Twitter than Valenciaga.
00:33:23.000The one thing that Elon Musk went after on day one was the exploitation of children on Twitter.
00:33:30.000There was when Twitter, when Elon Musk took over Twitter, there were still hashtags that linked directly to child pedophilic sites on the internet.
00:33:40.000So the exploitation of young kids was still allowed on Twitter until Elon Musk took over.
00:34:19.000And Charlie, it's coming from, this is how these things get normalized.
00:34:24.000And this is what's so important about this conversation is it starts with these academic sort of ivory tower conversations where they say, well, it's actually minor attracted persons.
00:34:41.000And we shouldn't stigmatize these people the way that we are.
00:34:45.000Well, Charlie, that then gets translated into a Broadway play called Downstate, which then gets reviewed with glowing, glowing rave reviews from the New York Times and the Washington Post.
00:34:57.000It says, how we deal with some of these issues in society needs to be changed.
