00:00:30.000His 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.
00:00:39.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:33.000It will come to every single nook and cranny and corner.
00:01:37.000In fact, this is something we've been talking about as I'm developing my next book, How We Actually Beat the Woke and How We Beat These People.
00:01:44.000You know, one of the things that I think we're starting to learn, because it's not all bad, but it's just so insulting.
00:01:50.000I mean, you're driving down the streets of Boise and it's as if you're a conquered country, right?
00:01:54.000That's what people do when they take over a country.
00:02:10.000But it's as if we, for far too long, one of the things I want to chat with you about is I think we have this misunderstanding that we don't want to be mean to the other side or that we don't want to be called intolerant.
00:02:26.000Now, I've never really subscribed to that.
00:02:30.000If you follow my work, really don't care.
00:02:34.000And I also would make an argument that tolerance is not a Christian value.
00:03:30.000Now, mind you, this is the, you know, somebody said the other day, well, Charlie, we're winning because now Major League Baseball got rid of their gay paraphernalia and they went back.
00:03:40.000And I said, well, that's a good thing.
00:03:41.000We're making movement, but it's not winning to go back to the logo we grew up with.
00:03:46.000Let's not try to convince ourselves that that is some sort of victory.
00:03:50.000In some ways, it's actually trying to convince us that even getting back to square one has taken all this effort.
00:03:56.000But there's something changing, and it's a positive, I have to say, because we're going to talk about plenty of the challenges in front of us.
00:04:04.000And I think the trans thing, I think the alphabet mafia coming after all of us.
00:04:09.000I think the rainbow-haired jihadis coming after our children has really kind of changed how we engage here because where were we three years ago?
00:05:14.000And Target doesn't understand, well, what did we do wrong?
00:05:16.000And the media, but this is a very important thing as we enter more into the deadliest sin that there is month, which is that when you go, their operating procedure is our reaction.
00:05:35.000So they almost try to provoke us to act so above and beyond.
00:05:39.000I'm going to show you example after example after example of how they try to make us seem as the unreasonable one to create a misrepresented viral moment that makes themselves more powerful, right?
00:05:51.000You guys all don't trust the media, but what I, what I want to encourage you is to go a step further into the step further into the belief that some people are afraid of, that you're actually living through an intentional, I think, sometimes intelligence agency funded operation to make you actually outraged and believe a certain thing you shouldn't believe.
00:06:12.000Now, for you, that's a bridge too far, but eventually you'll get there.
00:06:16.000So, and but, and I'll prove it to you.
00:06:19.000From Kyle Rittenhouse to Nicholas Sandman to January 6th to George Floyd, these situations are designed in a certain way to misrepresent something, prey on your emotions to make them more powerful.
00:06:33.000We are living in the era of clipped, misrepresented, viral moments that are then used with cushy soundbites to make the intelligence agencies and or their power grabs more successful, more powerful.
00:06:46.000But our reaction to a certain event is where they really get their true power.
00:07:00.000And so I want to always give attribution to people that come up with these things.
00:07:03.000He said they're going to try to create a drag Floyd situation in the month of June, you know, drag queen George Floyd, where somebody acts in a certain way where, you know, they're grooming kids, you know, acting like perverts and somebody acts in the way they shouldn't where, you know, you punch a drag queen or something like that.
00:07:19.000Same exact thing on the New York subway, right?
00:07:21.000Where it gets totally misrepresented and blown out of proportion.
00:07:25.000So we should obviously continue to stay peaceful in everything that we do in every way possible.
00:07:29.000But the reaction is then, it wouldn't be about the fact that they're grooming kids or that they're perverting seven-year-olds or they have tuck-friendly swimwear or they have any of this stuff.
00:07:38.000No, no, it would be all about a single instance of, oh my goodness, look at those right-wingers.
00:07:54.000And in fact, our secret weapon, which is a fruit of the spirit, is our self-control to not actually fall for the bait when they want us to.
00:08:42.000It's a secular religious ceremony, right?
00:08:44.000There's more ceremony, more corporations, more outward evangelism, more zealotry, more influencers that, you know, literally, you go down downtown Boise or Hollywood, there's more lead up.
00:08:59.000It is the new state-run religion, which is really something to think about and pray about and hope for, honestly, forgiveness for.
00:09:07.000So, but as that is happening, this is the first time where finally there's quote unquote some backlash, finally, where not just the target thing, but I think that regular ordinary people are starting to finally wake up and realize that it's never been about tolerance, right?
00:09:23.000Because like, I think the temperament of a lot of you here, I believe marriage is one man, one woman.
00:09:27.000We never should have redefined marriage.
00:09:29.000One of the biggest mistakes the Supreme Court ever made.
00:09:44.000That means that you don't want to overly police people's personal decisions because you would never want someone to police your own, except it was a false bargain.
00:10:39.000And if not for you, mandatory participation for your kids.
00:10:43.000And this is one of the reasons why I kind of cringe when people say, you know, we're, I'm a classical liberal.
00:10:50.000And I say, okay, well, be very careful with that because this is the arch of liberalism without the wise restraints of what I call biblical conservatism, right?
00:10:58.000If you are constantly always going to the idea that everyone is going to leave each other alone at all times, you're living under a false construct.
00:11:06.000And look, I think your temperament is you want to live in the country you grew up in.
00:11:19.000The T and LGBT stands for totalitarianism and tyranny, which is I am going to make you and make your children go through the certain practices to believe a certain thing.
00:11:31.000And, you know, I say this and people laugh, and I don't mean it as a joke, but it actually is kind of funny.
00:11:35.000You know, we have the gayest generation in history, right?
00:11:37.000And that's not happening just because all of a sudden young people feel more comfortable to be gay.
00:11:43.000It's because this is a lifestyle that actually is considered to come with points and privileges and rewards, that you actually are able to become more important.
00:11:52.000In fact, you're able to claim some sort of progress on the oppression Olympic ladder.
00:11:58.000I get a gold medal if I am trans or lesbian or gay or whatever.
00:12:33.000And most pastors are like, well, I just want to get along to get along.
00:12:37.000I'm like, man, this is wartime Christianity.
00:12:39.000If you don't want to get along with it, you got to go find something else to do because the country and the Republic's fallen apart and we could talk about that.
00:12:45.000So look, the other thing I do want to make sure that is conveyed to you, because I know a lot of you are wondering, how do we win that were so overwhelming against us?
00:12:55.000So one of the most liberating things, and this is easier said than done, that you can do in your own life is you have to understand that the names they will call you will not mean anything.
00:13:07.000You might say, oh, Charlie, of course that's the case.
00:13:09.000You would be shocked at how many good people are afraid to take virtuous and courageous action because they're afraid of being called a racist.
00:13:18.000And they have weaponized name-calling to put you into a permanent paralysis in such a powerful way, unlike anything we've ever seen.
00:13:27.000The number one complaint that, no, no, number piece of feedback I get in my email inbox from our amazing, and I know some of you listen to our podcast and watch Unreal America's Voice.
00:13:45.000You know, we have a whole staff and we have legal protection and the Lord has blessed us so much and we've been pretty amazingly protected.
00:14:04.000Okay, the career, I'm not here to tell you to go lose your job intentionally, but you are not a free citizen of America if you have to look over your shoulder every time you have to voice your opinion.
00:14:15.000You're already living in a totalitarian country.
00:14:18.000And that's something you could decide to change today.
00:14:22.000That is not something you need a legislation passed.
00:14:24.000You're like, oh my goodness, I hate the debt ceiling bill.
00:14:50.000And I could tell you right now that the most liberating thing you could do for yourself and for your kids and for your community is to say, I'm going to say the truth, the spoken truth, the logos.
00:15:01.000And whatever they do to me, I don't care.
00:15:36.000But we disempower them when we say, look, I'm actually going to keep on watching this podcast or this person, even though you tell me that person's a racist.
00:16:04.000Because I get so much feedback and I love the emails and I love, and I just, I'm perplexed.
00:16:09.000I say, what kind of country are you living in where just saying something super simple, like, I don't know, grooming children in elementary school should land you in prison.
00:16:18.000That's considered like a courageous thing to say.
00:16:23.000And that's one of the calls to action I give in every single audience is because the Marxist totalitarian despots and tyrants, they are very worried that the American Patriots, this great organization, that we're about to leave our cage that they built for us.
00:17:49.000There's a tyranny that is passed by a legislative body or a corporation and a tyranny that's going to require protest and elections.
00:17:57.000And then there's the tyranny that we agree to.
00:18:01.000And a free people has to first liberate ourselves from the shackles of the tyranny that we have voluntarily agreed to because we're afraid of losing the comfort of a country club membership or a neighbor.
00:18:16.000Now, I'm not saying you have to be incendiary.
00:18:27.000But the part that I just, I can't, if I had to be honest, I think American Christianity gets the loving part of the gospel done pretty well and gets the truth part of the gospel miserably.
00:18:58.000And so there's a way, for example, you can look at the videos that I do when I go to college campuses and I'm debating students and kids under the trans delusion will come up and they'll say, I think I'm a man and all this.
00:19:12.000I say, no, you're under a torment of a mental issue that I hope you can get treatment so you can get liberated from the torture that you have to put yourself through.
00:19:23.000You see, people say, I'm being unloving.
00:20:38.000So, you could sound bite me and clip me, and then you could say, oh, Charlie said Trump was going to die.
00:20:43.000I will fully acknowledge and repent if I'm wrong, and we'll see what happens.
00:20:48.000So, however, we're about to go through this bitter primary.
00:20:51.000Here's the thing that I care about most.
00:20:53.000We could talk about elections if you want, which I have a lot of strong opinions about how the RNC is a waste of rations and should be totally downsized and is lying to you and doing terrible things and all that stuff, right?
00:21:05.000But that's another separate issue if you guys want to address.
00:21:08.000More importantly, is an attitude shift.
00:21:11.000What is the attitude of the right is actually what is going to change things?
00:21:16.000It's an attitude that just if elections don't go my way, I don't care.
00:22:35.000It's an attitude shift that the game has restarted.
00:22:40.000And I think President Trump deserves a lot of credit for starting this line of thinking, a lot of credit.
00:22:45.000The game has restarted where we are now going to start from zero and build up with the language, with the decisions, with the behavior that we know to be true, as if the left did not exist at all.
00:23:01.000Because so much of what we do is under the paradigm of the rules of the road that we've inherited from a Marxist, postmodern globalist regime over a couple decades.
00:23:14.000And so when you kind of build back from square zero using the scriptures, using the classics, using our reason, using the natural law, all of a sudden like, oh, okay, now I know how I can talk about these issues.
00:23:26.000Because how often I hear is, well, Charlie, this wouldn't have been controversial 20 years ago or 10 years ago or five years ago.
00:23:34.000Or, I mean, the fact that 90% of American colleges are teaching men can give birth, right?
00:24:14.000And I will close with this, and then we'll do some questions because I know we have a lot of believers in the audience here.
00:24:20.000And I know that Bill Federer, my great friend, is speaking at Calvary Chapel tomorrow, which I think is a sister church of Jack Hibbs, right?
00:24:28.000Who I think the world of Jack Hibbs, he's amazing.
00:24:30.000And look, I believe Jesus is coming and he's coming back and he's going to return to his throne.
00:24:37.000I know a lot of you believe in a very clear pre-tribulation eschatology.
00:25:17.000At the same time, you also should have faith that what you do matters and that you need to push back against darkness as an act of obedience and duty to the divine.
00:25:27.000Not just that, hey, you know, can you zap us up?
00:25:30.000Because things are getting really tough.
00:25:34.000Blessed are we that things are actually so consequential.
00:25:38.000Because if you are so sure of Christ's return next Thursday, then do not eat anything till next Thursday because you better fast and pray if you know what's happening.
00:25:47.000The point is, yes, the signs are pointing towards things that, you know, that the end of history, as you will, will be there.
00:25:55.000However, out of an act of faith and duty, we're not going to allow that to be like, hey, house is on fire.
00:27:10.000So, no, the Durham report has not changed anything.
00:27:14.000Look, the political hope of the country is not going to come from Washington, D.C. James Comey, Hillary Clinton, Andrew McKay, Bruce and Elior, these people should all be locked up in prison a long time ago, but it's not going to happen.
00:27:44.000I said this on our radio program and I got attacked by the media very ferociously because I said what they did is far more evil than most burglaries or assaults or every.
00:27:57.000I didn't say it's worse than murder, and let me tell you why, because actually abusing governmental authority, I think, is one of the highest thresholds of evil a human being can do, because the government has ultimate power to do things that even the mob can't do, that just a local run-of-the-mill criminal can't do is you have access to secret courts, to surveillance.
00:28:18.000I mean that right, there is the collectivization of treacherous and evil behavior, and so I think there needs to be an equal and opposite punishment for that.
00:28:30.000Yeah, the Durham report is everything that we quote unquote conspiracy theorists were saying.
00:28:35.000Four years ago, I lost my Twitter account social media for a while because of saying the things that are now described in the Durham report, and so the more important thing that I really want to emphasize, though that we talked about uh, on my podcast is they're going to do it again.
00:28:55.000Yes they're, they're already doing it right now.
00:29:00.000By the way, the 2020 election was a drive-by shooting of the United States Constitution Zuckerboxes.
00:29:05.000You have the tabletop exercises at the Aspen Institute, FBI with Yoel Roth standing meetings, going to Mark Zuckerberg and threatening that if they do not then go after Russian disinformation, then they're going to have special uh.
00:29:20.000They're going to have special uh punishment from the government.
00:29:23.000This was all a setup, the Hunter Biden laptop, the cover-up, the 50 intel agencies with Tony Blinken that's all bad.
00:32:06.000They won't be laughing all of a sudden when their holy charities start to get indicted.
00:32:10.000They will not be laughing when all of a sudden Mark Zuckerberg has to all of a sudden be criminally indicted for manipulating the 2020 election.
00:32:42.000With the huge amount of election fraud in 2020 and the increasing amount of ballot harvesting, what do you think Republicans can do to secure a victory in 2024?
00:33:16.000Oh, well, because they're a D.C.-focused organization.
00:33:18.000Meanwhile, the Democrats and the Soros groups, in my home state of Arizona, they're spending $250 million to do all this stuff, and they're barely eking out, I think, treacherous victories against the amazing patriots like Kerry Lake and so many others, who should be governor of Arizona, by the way.
00:33:38.000Our money has to go to support groups like We the Patriots or Turning Point Action or whatever, right?
00:33:42.000Local, local, local, grassroots, gritty, scrappy, real organizations, not this type of nonsensical DC overhead that's been so frustrating to witness and look at.
00:34:03.000All I know is Mark Elias is just making total, a joke of us, honestly, with what he's doing with lawfare.
00:34:10.000Here is my thing, though, and it is something that we have to start to embrace, and we have to start to realize and recognize that there is a rather unfortunate pill to swallow, a less than desirable set of circumstances, but we have to get into that arena if we actually want to win.
00:34:25.000So, okay, in the 2024 election, the electoral map has changed a little bit.
00:35:23.000If your people in charge are not constantly saying this daily, for those of you that listen to the Charlie Kirk show, you're probably sick of hearing this by now.
00:35:30.000I literally say this like an incantation every day.
00:35:32.000Because I've said, look, I'm a Trump guy, and that's fine.
00:35:35.000I actually care more about whether or not we're investing in early state infrastructure, early in voter registration, law fair, signature verification, and yes, ballot chasing and getting our low-propensity voters to vote within a 30-day window.
00:35:50.000Now, this is where I get a little bit of pushback from people, but I think I can win you over, okay?
00:35:54.000What I saw with Kerry Lake change my opinion.
00:36:02.000However, when I went to go vote on game day in Scottsdale, Arizona for the Great Kerry Lake, there was a two and a half hour waiting line because those machines literally melted down and a five-hour thing where no one could cast ballots and thousands of great patriots were not able to vote at all.
00:36:17.000That is an intentional sabotage because we broadcasted our play and said, Hey, all you have to do is, hey, it'd be a shame if that 12-hour voting period got harder for us to vote.
00:36:28.000So we can either repeat the same mistake again or we can change up our strategy a little bit to say, is there a way to get some of our voters that can't wait two and a half hours in a 90-degree heat in Phoenix, right, to be able to vote early in person, still somewhat secure?
00:36:44.000Again, it's all there's a whole lawfare side that needs to happen to this, but it's better than not voting at all, right?
00:37:42.000Anyone from Wisconsin, they will elect one of their own, right?
00:37:45.000If you have a Wisconsinite as VP, they will go that way.
00:37:48.000I think you could almost ensure that you would win Wisconsin, which then really makes it a two-state presidential race, Georgia and Arizona.
00:37:58.000That one is going to take a lot of prayer, a lot of work, and a lot of grit because that place is, I think, one of the most corrupt places on planet Earth when it comes to elections.
00:38:06.000Arizona is bad, but it's actually, I think, more manageable.
00:38:27.000We have to have someone get in, break up the FBI, break up the Department of Justice, hold these fourth branch of government account, do real things, right?
00:38:35.000So, and so my number one macro focus is: okay, the primary is going to be nasty and bitter and awful and personal and cruel.
00:38:47.000But what, so therefore, all my time and attention instead is like, okay, why don't we then go to the place where we should be focusing on?
00:38:54.000And again, I'm incredibly frustrated when I see these people that are totally, in my personal opinion, what's the best way to word it?
00:39:04.000I'm usually not really politically correct.
00:39:06.000Other losers running for the U.S. presidency.
00:39:09.000And I mean, you got Chris Christie running for the presidency, and you got, I mean, one after the other.
00:39:13.000And I think, honestly, I mean, you could have a conspiracy side of it, or you could just have the truth of it.
00:39:17.000It could be an ego, or it could be just make this so expensive, make it so bloody, make it so difficult for Trump to enter cleanly where he has to fight on so many different, and he might still get through it, that then there's zero investment in Wisconsin, Georgia, and Arizona.
00:39:33.000So, look, here's the good news: these crooks, what they've done in Arizona and Georgia and Wisconsin, they've lied and steated.
00:39:40.000We're still falling like 9,000 votes short.
00:39:43.000We're falling like 11,000 votes short.
00:40:24.000Our medical facilities are overflowing with illegal aliens, the Medicaid that we have now in expansion in Idaho, plus people who have jobs and they get medical insurance.
00:40:38.000I asked this question of you about two years ago when you came to Idaho, and I just wanted to see if you changed your mind.
00:40:44.000Are you still for forcing us veterans out of our veterans' hospitals into the medical industry that's not the veterans' hospital?
00:40:59.000Because here in Boise, we have a great VA.
00:41:02.000And my second question is: have you visited the VA?
00:41:18.000In fact, they find it to be awful and terrible.
00:41:20.000So I'll let you guys debate it amongst yourselves.
00:41:22.000Yes, I have visited a VA and it was an insult.
00:41:25.000So to be clear about my position, it was actually pro-veteran, as I said, they should all get a Medicare for all card to be able to go to any hospital they want at any time to get world-class service.
00:41:36.000And so, but if you have a great VA, let's just talk realistic.
00:41:40.000None of this is going to change anytime soon, right?
00:41:42.000But my intent, which doesn't always matter in life, it can, was actually a pro-veteran intent, which is that when veterans are calling the VA hotline like happened under Obama, the suicide hotline that wasn't checked for six months, right?
00:41:56.000And I thought my motivation was to give them a Medicare card so they could shop around so that our veterans are treated the best.
00:42:03.000That was always my driving motivation.
00:42:05.000But if you guys have a wonderful VA hospital here in Idaho, I have learned something new.
00:42:54.000Charlie, they've got a plan and they're executing it beautifully.
00:42:58.000I mean, never before in this country have we had government, corporations, entertainment, medicine, education, all working so cohesively together.
00:43:22.000I don't know how much I can do, but I do it and they all know I do and they all message me secretly because they're afraid to like my posts and I'm very careful about what I do.
00:43:30.000But it's hard for us to have a plan because they took the media away from us.
00:43:35.000And especially my generation, we still believe, I don't, I worked in broadcasting for 22 years.
00:44:51.000Our opposition party has merged with the Uniparty for the exact, they don't care there are borders open.
00:44:56.000They make a bigger deal that Zelensky is not getting his $5 billion wire transfer every other week, which by the way, I couldn't care less about what happens in Ukraine while our own border remains completely and totally wide open.
00:45:11.000And please, at the next time your U.S. senators have a town hall in the state, you need to show up.
00:45:27.000Show up at that town hall and start screaming and being like, why are we sending one red penny to Ukraine while the U.S. southern border is open?
00:46:18.000But finally, as far as the plan, the American right right now is in the time being, and I'm just going to warn all of you because I could see it happening already on Twitter, which is not real life, but you could see it.
00:46:30.000We're about to go through an incredibly fractured, divisive, unnecessarily brutal primary that's going to make any sort of plan.
00:46:41.000So that's why I am clear about who I'm supporting, but I'm trying to build things and building things is hard.
00:46:48.000And so that's where my platform and what I'm trying to do, because there will be a day after the primary.
00:46:54.000And it's going to look like Nagasaki in the Republican Party, like an atom bomb went off.
00:47:00.000And we're like, well, we got 90 days where we have to go against Joe Biden.
00:47:04.000But at least, you know, Trump got 53% of the delegates instead of 61% of the delegates.
00:47:09.000It's going to be a $1 billion primary, everybody.
00:47:12.000And the better question is, why are Republican donors going to put hundreds of millions of dollars for a personality contest when we desperately need that money in Georgia, Wisconsin, and Arizona?
00:47:50.000My question for you is, how do we encourage our friends to break out of their comfort zone and speak and act against the spirit of the age?
00:48:03.000So look, courage begets courage, and you have to act in a certain way, and people will start to follow that action.
00:48:09.000It's a great question to end on, actually.
00:48:11.000So I know some of you were probably, you know, this is a little bit to the earlier question, which is great, but it wasn't said this plainly.
00:48:19.000But I get asked a lot, Charlie, are we going to win or are we going to lose?
00:48:23.000Are you optimistic or are you pessimistic?
00:48:26.000Now, if I told you I was optimistic, you would go home and say, I don't have to do anything because Charlie's optimistic that we are going to win.
00:48:33.000If I told you I was pessimistic, you would go home and say, I don't have to do anything because the whole place is falling apart.
00:48:38.000And then you'd get really big into the rapture stuff, right?
00:48:42.000And instead, I'm going to tell you, I always tell you the truth.
00:48:46.000That is my commitment to you, the audience.
00:49:52.000Well, some of you are probably here, and I could tell by some of the body language, like Charlie, I already have done everything that's been asked of me.
00:52:31.000When I first started Turning Point, one 18-year-old kid in the suburbs of Chicago, not going to college, trying to get kids to love, did not make a difference until it did make a difference.
00:52:42.000And that's, you have no idea how the Lord will use your action.
00:52:47.000If you do, then you are playing God, and none of us are called to do that.
00:52:51.000And so, are our best days ahead or are our worst days ahead?
00:52:55.000It's actually wholly dependent on what we do.
