00:00:50.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:52.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:54.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:57.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:00.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:01.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:02.000 His spirit, his love of this country.
00:01:04.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:01:09.000 Turning point USA.
00:01:11.000 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.
00:01:20.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:22.000 Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:01:35.000 Joining us now is Savannah Hernandez.
00:01:37.000 She has the most viral content right now regarding anything political, East Palestine, you name it, because she decided to go ask Budajej questions.
00:01:49.000 And the press secretary did not like that at all.
00:01:51.000 Savannah, welcome to the program.
00:01:53.000 And Savannah is with our Turning Point USA Frontlines project.
00:01:57.000 And you guys can check out Savannah's social media.
00:02:00.000 I'll get all the handles here.
00:02:01.000 Savannah, I never thought it would be so hard to get questions from a press secretary.
00:02:07.000 Tell us about it.
00:02:09.000 Yeah, Charlie.
00:02:10.000 So, of course, we know that Pete Buttigieg decided to come to East Palestine almost three weeks post-training derailment.
00:02:17.000 We had former President Donald Trump here yesterday.
00:02:20.000 We were here talking to him.
00:02:21.000 And a lot of people were already criticizing Budajeg because they asked the question, why did it take President Trump getting here for you to come?
00:02:29.000 So, you know, there was already a lot of around this trip.
00:02:33.000 And I'll simply ask him as well what he planned to do to help the residents of East Palestine if he had an apology for them because of the fact that they've been left in the dark, the fact that they have had no federal assistance.
00:02:46.000 Okay.
00:02:47.000 I mean, actually, I don't want to be fake news here, Charlie.
00:02:50.000 They do have FEMA teams here, but per the mayor, they just came this past weekend.
00:02:55.000 So again, that federal assistance came very slowly.
00:02:57.000 So I wanted to ask Pete Buttigieg about that.
00:02:59.000 Of course, he walked away.
00:03:01.000 And then his press secretary told me that I was being aggressive for trying to ask questions regarding, you know, transparency around this entire crisis that's happened here.
00:03:10.000 Yeah, it's just amazing, honestly.
00:03:13.000 They're so unprepared.
00:03:14.000 They've never been asked critical questions ever.
00:03:16.000 Let's play some of these, this piece of tape here.
00:03:19.000 And it's just amazing.
00:03:21.000 Here is your interaction with the press secretary where they say, turn off the camera.
00:03:25.000 Like, I'm the press secretary.
00:03:27.000 I only answer questions if I'm not on the record.
00:03:30.000 It's just remarkable.
00:03:31.000 Play cut 91.
00:03:33.000 So, can we ask why it took him almost three weeks to get here?
00:03:38.000 I'm sorry, I don't want to do this on camera.
00:03:40.000 Well, if you're the press secretary of the secretary of the Department of Transportation, don't you think you should be able to ask questions from the American public that you serve?
00:03:48.000 I would like to do it without the camera on.
00:03:49.000 Can I ask why?
00:03:50.000 That is a little bit aggressive.
00:03:52.000 Why is it aggressive?
00:03:52.000 That's why it's not.
00:03:56.000 Without the camera on Savannah, I've never heard of a press secretary demanding people to turn off cameras.
00:04:01.000 Your thoughts?
00:04:02.000 You know, I feel like this is just modern-day America, and that's your average Democrat press secretary, if we're being honest here.
00:04:10.000 You know, they don't want the transparency for the public, they don't want people to really know what's going on, and that's why it was even so difficult for us to get questions answered regarding what's been going on over here.
00:04:21.000 So it was just funny to me, too, because the security that was protecting this area was trying to tell me, Hey, you can't film her because she's asking not to be filmed.
00:04:30.000 And the local police here, for the first time in my journalistic career, actually defended my ability to film in public and said, Well, the press secretary can walk away.
00:04:39.000 She even asked the press secretary if she wanted to go inside, to which she responded, No, I'm fine out here.
00:04:44.000 Um, we also had a daily caller reporter on the scene because let's not forget that the caller went and confronted Pete Buttigieg in DC.
00:04:50.000 And Budajej responded by taking a photo of their young female journalist in the middle of the night.
00:04:55.000 So, you know, it was just absolutely incredible to see the response here.
00:05:01.000 And the Daily Caller reporter went and asked the press secretary questions off camera.
00:05:05.000 And guess what?
00:05:06.000 There was still no response.
00:05:08.000 So I want to play another piece of tape here of you just trying to get a question out of Pete Budajej, play cut 99.
00:05:16.000 The American public doesn't seem to be very confident in your ability to do your job.
00:05:20.000 Will you be resigning anytime soon?
00:05:22.000 I'm not here for politics.
00:05:23.000 I'm here to make sure the community can get what they need.
00:05:25.000 Will you apologize?
00:05:26.000 Will you apologize for the response?
00:05:28.000 For the slow response, taking your time.
00:05:31.000 Let's go in here and get away.
00:05:32.000 That is another one of our Turning Point USA front lines reporters.
00:05:36.000 Kaylin does an amazing job.
00:05:39.000 And it just strikes me, Savannah, there's just the media never asks the tough questions to these people.
00:05:45.000 And Turning Point USA, we go up.
00:05:48.000 It's not political.
00:05:48.000 We're just asking questions.
00:05:50.000 Why is that?
00:05:52.000 Well, you know what?
00:05:52.000 There is a very big problem with transparency and actually holding our public officials accountable.
00:05:58.000 So Kaylin initially asked that question, and then Budajej came out, and I was able to ask him more questions as well.
00:06:03.000 And mine was, hey, you know, you initially said that there were a thousand trained around this every single year in response to East Palestine.
00:06:10.000 Do you stand by those comments?
00:06:11.000 Do you want to apologize?
00:06:12.000 Is that okay with you?
00:06:13.000 And how do you plan to fix that?
00:06:15.000 To which he responded, he thinks that he did a great job responding to what has happened here.
00:06:19.000 He said, well, you know, I would refer you to the, you know, the recent railroad.
00:06:25.000 I don't even remember what he said.
00:06:26.000 He was just like, I'll refer you to this.
00:06:27.000 And I said, no, tell me the points right now.
00:06:29.000 The American people want to know.
00:06:30.000 And I am here on the ground on behalf of the American people that you continue to ignore.
00:06:35.000 And again, you know, the media, they'll throw these softball questions at these politicians, but it's so important for us to actually, you know, ask them and say, hey, what is your legitimate answer and response to this?
00:06:45.000 Because people are being sacrificed as a direct result of the slow response by the federal government.
00:06:51.000 I mean, people's lives, children's lives are at risk here on the ground today.
00:06:55.000 And it's very heartbreaking to see Americans abandoned.
00:06:58.000 I want to play cut 81.
00:07:00.000 Let's throw to that.
00:07:01.000 Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg did make it clear that he should have gone there sooner.
00:07:06.000 And let's just put a pin on that.
00:07:09.000 He should have gone there sooner.
00:07:11.000 And the White House should have done a better job.
00:07:13.000 The people of East Palestine need to feel seen and heard.
00:07:18.000 These are people who right now are very uncertain about their health and the future of their town.
00:07:24.000 And it is definitely a little bit of a bump for the White House to not make sure they shined a big light on what was happening there.
00:07:32.000 A little bit of a bump.
00:07:33.000 And then cut 83.
00:07:35.000 They're saying it shouldn't have taken this long, cut 83.
00:07:35.000 They continue.
00:07:39.000 Tonight, the EPA, the Environmental Protection Agency, is on the ground in Ohio.
00:07:44.000 The move follows three weeks of angry pleas from residents of East Palestine that the company, the agency, and the president of the United States are simply not doing enough.
00:07:57.000 And we're just asking questions.
00:07:57.000 They're not.
00:07:59.000 Savannah Hernandez is on the ground with the whole Frontlines team, and they're doing the type of work that is necessary.
00:08:07.000 This is not conservative work.
00:08:08.000 This is not liberal work.
00:08:09.000 This is educational work.
00:08:10.000 We're just going to ask questions.
00:08:11.000 By the way, we're asking why it took so long.
00:08:14.000 And we have now been attacked personally by Buddha Judge's partner, Chastin, for being spreaders of disinformation.
00:08:22.000 I think we lost Savannah for a second here.
00:08:25.000 And so if we get her back, great.
00:08:27.000 But the work that Turning Point USA is doing is legitimate journalism that has now been seen by over a million people.
00:08:34.000 The press secretary says we have to, you got to turn off the camera.
00:08:38.000 Like, we're happy to talk to you, but you got to turn off the camera.
00:08:42.000 Busted.
00:08:44.000 Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:08:46.000 These people cannot answer basic questions.
00:08:49.000 And by the way, we're only going to, we're only going to expand Turning Point USA Frontlines.
00:08:53.000 We had this idea because I said to our team, I said, we have the energy, we have the spirit, we have the talent.
00:08:58.000 We got Drew Hernandez, we got Savannah Hernandez, got Kaylin, got these amazing guys.
00:09:01.000 And let's just go ask questions.
00:09:04.000 Go find a powerful person and ask questions.
00:09:06.000 Let the truth be our guide always.
00:09:08.000 If they have good answers, then fine.
00:09:10.000 There's no political agenda.
00:09:12.000 Just go into the streets outside of these kind of pre-produced, very highly scripted, artificial press conferences, and then just ask him, why did it take you so long?
00:09:23.000 By the way, this is what CNN, MSNBC, they do this full-time to our side.
00:09:28.000 Remember, they follow George Santos around, they follow McCarthy around, they follow Gates around.
00:09:33.000 They do this nonstop.
00:09:34.000 They'll never do it to their own.
00:09:36.000 And all we're doing is asking very basic questions that demand answers.
00:09:39.000 I'm very proud of Turning Point USA for doing this.
00:09:42.000 And look, they want you to be able to turn off the cameras.
00:09:46.000 I am hopeful that the work that Turning Point USA's Frontlines is doing is going to significantly uncover a lot of corruption.
00:09:56.000 It's going to uncover a lot of darkness and a lot of misdeeds.
00:09:59.000 And that is great work.
00:10:00.000 You add that to the incredible campus work that we're doing, amongst many other things.
00:10:04.000 It really is exciting.
00:10:05.000 Today was a big win for the truth.
00:10:06.000 Just get her on camera.
00:10:07.000 Can you turn off the camera?
00:10:09.000 Can you just turn it off?
00:10:10.000 What?
00:10:14.000 Look, are you concerned about the American K-12 education system?
00:10:17.000 Are you worried about what your children and your grandchildren are learning or honestly not learning in school?
00:10:22.000 If you answer yes, my friends at Hillsdale College have a free resource for you.

00:11:25.000 Darren Beatty is with us.
00:11:28.000 Darren, welcome back to the program.
00:11:30.000 Darren, January 6th tapes.
00:11:32.000 I have no idea your opinion of this, but Tucker Carlson is getting access to the tapes.
00:11:36.000 Do you think this is good?
00:11:37.000 Your thoughts, Darren, the floor is yours.
00:11:37.000 Is this enough?
00:11:39.000 Well, I think it's clearly very good in the sense that it's better that Tucker Carlson and others have access to this footage than not.
00:11:52.000 And I think the key here, though, is there's so much footage.
00:11:57.000 What we want to avoid is this kind of situation where Kevin McCarthy offers this sort of needle in a haystack proposition.
00:12:08.000 position as a consolation prize.
00:12:11.000 And basically, that's the end of the political capital because there's a long process leading up to McCarthy getting the position that he did.
00:12:22.000 And there's some kind of implicit arrangement or understanding that McCarthy is going to play ball on some issues.
00:12:30.000 And so given the enormity of how many tapes there are, the worst case scenario is it's just the needle in the haystack thing.
00:12:39.000 It's like, here's your 40,000 hours, good luck type of situation.
00:12:43.000 It takes months and who knows what's in it.
00:12:45.000 And in the meantime, everyone else just moves on and Kevin McCarthy moves on.
00:12:51.000 I think, though, if it's treated strategically, it can actually be quite important.
00:12:58.000 And in order to do that, we really need to be narrow and targeted and specific with what we're looking at.
00:13:05.000 And I've said publicly that the two places to look at, and you want to look at, of course, any footage that exists that could help enlighten the situation regarding the pipe bomber.
00:13:19.000 But perhaps more optimistically, since the pipe bomber thing was more at the DNC and I think the Capitol Police have some cameras around there, but maybe not as many, not as good as the DNC ones.
00:13:32.000 But where you can really get some leverage out of this is examining the footage around the peace monument.
00:13:38.000 That's the position right around the western perimeter of the Capitol where that initial and decisive Ray Epps breach occurred.
00:13:46.000 And the reason that that's such an important place to look at, you know, specifically between time of, say, 10 a.m. and when the breach occurred around 1252, is that that's where, as we showed in Revolver, that's where that curious cast of characters, the handful of critical actors who played a decisive role in turning that rally into a riot,
00:14:13.000 critical actors who have not been indicted and in many cases haven't even been identified, we can learn more about them.
00:14:20.000 And specifically, the now infamous and mysterious scaffold commander, the fence cutter bulwark, and other characters who haven't been identified because there's not a lot of great footage available on them.
00:14:33.000 The Capitol police footage could, if we get clear and close shots of some of these people, could lead to the positive identification, which could be an absolute game changer.
00:14:44.000 So, Darren, there's so many different angles I want to unpack with you.
00:14:49.000 But did you say 41,000 hours?
00:14:52.000 I just want to make sure I heard you correctly, not 14,000.
00:14:54.000 Oh, I mean, however many, however many thousands of hours.
00:14:57.000 The point is that the downside risk here is just to get so overwhelmed by the enormity of information that it serves as a kind of indefinite distraction.
00:15:09.000 I'm glad that Tucker's getting access.
00:15:11.000 My fear is that that is way too much for any team.
00:15:15.000 I publicly volunteer, just from an educational standpoint, any of our staff that will fly out just to help sift through that and just be like, oh, that's interesting, just because you need eyeballs on it.
00:15:26.000 Darren, so I want to play some of this tape here about the tapes being shared.
00:15:33.000 Let's play Cut 67 of MSNBC melting down about the tapes getting shared.
00:15:37.000 Play Cut 67.
00:15:38.000 It's the people's house.
00:15:40.000 Those are the people's tapes.
00:15:42.000 Those tapes and cameras are paid for by taxpayer money.
00:15:46.000 What he did is absolutely partisan, using material that's owned by the American public and giving it to a partisan news organization that will look at it to support its own particular viewpoint.
00:15:59.000 That's really a sacrilege.
00:16:01.000 So, Darren, partisanship is now the issue.
00:16:03.000 The January 6th Committee was one of the most partisan organizations ever assembled in Congress.
00:16:08.000 Your thoughts?
00:16:09.000 Absolutely.
00:16:10.000 First of all, I have to say something about that specific commentator who is an interesting character in his own regard.
00:16:16.000 That's Rick Stengel.
00:16:17.000 He is the self-described chief, former chief propagandist of the Obama presidency.
00:16:24.000 He ran the State Department's Global Engagement Center, which is sort of the propaganda unit within the State Department that's tasked with pushing American propaganda out overseas.
00:16:36.000 The only thing is, he played a pivotal role in redirecting the propaganda domestically and in basically establishing this now infamous disinformation industry that's played such a key role in suppressing our First Amendment rights.
00:16:53.000 He's written about reimagining the First Amendment so it's to ban hate speech, which of course means speech that he hates, among other things.
00:17:03.000 So he's a particularly scandalous and malicious individual.
00:17:09.000 So it's no surprise that he's here complaining about the footage being released to Tucker, which I think was a great decision to release it to Tucker.
00:17:18.000 But in a way, maybe, you know, would Stengel be happier if the footage were simply released to the public?
00:17:26.000 I don't see any harm in it being released to the public, but is that really the issue with Stengel?
00:17:30.000 He's saying it's the people's stuff.
00:17:32.000 It's the people's footage.
00:17:33.000 Okay, release all the footage to the public so we can crowdsource and get into this footage and see what's actually relevant.
00:17:41.000 What he wants is not the footage being released to the public.
00:17:45.000 It's certainly not it being released to Tucker Carlson.
00:17:48.000 What he wants is for the regime, for the corrupt national security establishment and their Democrat allies to have exclusive control of this narrative and exclusive possession of this footage.
00:18:01.000 So I saw this piece of tape.
00:18:02.000 Somebody sent it to me on our kind of show prep, and I watched this tape 10 times, Darren.
00:18:08.000 And I'm sure you saw it.
00:18:09.000 It's just in the last couple of days.
00:18:10.000 I don't know where it came from.
00:18:11.000 You would probably know, but it is a police body cam footage on January 6th of a police officer riding a bicycle.
00:18:20.000 And he approaches a bunch of people that look like Trump voters and Trump supporters.
00:18:27.000 They exchange some words.
00:18:28.000 And guess what?
00:18:29.000 Every one of the Trump supporters take out their federal identification.
00:18:35.000 Watch this.
00:18:36.000 Play Cut 100.
00:18:39.000 Hey, how are you guys doing?
00:18:41.000 Quick question.
00:18:44.000 Give me a second.
00:18:46.000 Who's doing a little investigation?
00:18:49.000 Actually disrespectfully.
00:18:50.000 Is anyone on anyone on the square?
00:18:52.000 Oh, police.
00:18:53.000 Police.
00:18:53.000 Yeah, law enforcement.
00:19:00.000 Okay.
00:19:02.000 Appreciate it.
00:19:03.000 Appreciate it.
00:19:04.000 That's all.
00:19:07.000 You got to do a little bit better, huh?
00:19:10.000 Darren, where did this video come from?
00:19:11.000 I think it was only the beginning of asking how many feds were actually in the crowd that day.
00:19:17.000 Yeah, it's almost to the point where we were wondering, were there any people who weren't involved with federal agencies?
00:19:25.000 It's quite something.
00:19:28.000 I'm not sure actually of the provenance of that video, but it certainly raises some questions.
00:19:34.000 There's other video recently circulating on Twitter showing apparent DC metro police officers in a kind of similarly undercover type position, inciting the crowd.
00:19:48.000 And then, of course, there's the Rogues Gallery with which we're already quite familiar.
00:19:53.000 But, you know, the Ray Eps types and those handful of critical actors who are pre-positioned right at the peace monument.
00:20:02.000 I don't know if they're going to be able to suppress this information even further.
00:20:08.000 It looks like the dam is about to break.
00:20:10.000 And again, it's the narrative that we already know.
00:20:13.000 We already know that the crowd was infiltrated to an extreme degree, that the militia groups that they blame for it were also infiltrated to an extreme degree.
00:20:25.000 So I know you know Tucker well and you communicate with them, but share with our audience if you can.
00:20:30.000 So you have this 14,000, 40,000.
00:20:32.000 Okay, so that's an enormous amount of footage, okay?
00:20:35.000 But Darren, you're the expert.
00:20:37.000 Where should they start?
00:20:38.000 What should they be looking for?
00:20:39.000 Assuming that some of this footage is not just randomly put together, that maybe there is some, you know, there's some rhythm to it, meaning that maybe it's put together consecutively by certain angles.
00:20:50.000 Okay, so, but, Darren, you probably kind of at this point have at least narrowed the one to two percent of where you think there could be something.
00:20:57.000 What should I be looking for?
00:20:58.000 What time, what angles, what place?
00:21:01.000 You know, what, where do you think they should really focus as a starting point?
00:21:06.000 Absolutely.
00:21:07.000 And it's a crucial question because, like I said, the alternative is the possibility of being completely overwhelmed and bogged down indefinitely, given the sheer amount of information.
00:21:18.000 And we don't want, you know, to be wading through these thousands and thousands of hours.
00:21:24.000 And meanwhile, everyone else moves on and there's a missed opportunity.
00:21:28.000 That's why focus and precision are so important here.
00:21:33.000 And as to what we should focus on, it's as I stated earlier before the break, there are two things.
00:21:40.000 One is the DNC pipe bomb situation.
00:21:44.000 I think this is definitely worth a shot to see if there's any of the Capitol police footage can help shed light on this.
00:21:52.000 It's probably not going to get as much mileage as we'd get if we actually had the DNC footage.
00:22:00.000 And I've been calling for a long time.
00:22:01.000 You know, we've reported on the pipe bomb extensively.
00:22:04.000 We proved the FBI tampered with the footage they released.
00:22:07.000 They've censored the footage.
00:22:09.000 I've been calling for the full chain of custody of the DNC footage and the full raw and unedited DNC footage.
00:22:15.000 Unfortunately, that's not included in the Capitol Police footage, but still they probably have cameras nearby and they're worth a close look.
00:22:24.000 Secondly, and perhaps most importantly, again, is what I was saying earlier.
00:22:29.000 Look at all of the footage around the peace monument on the morning of January 6th.
00:22:34.000 What do you mean?
00:22:35.000 Where is the peace monument?
00:22:36.000 Sorry.
00:22:36.000 It's on the west side of the Capitol.
00:22:38.000 It's right near the western perimeter of the Capitol, where that initial and decisive Ray Eps breach occurred.
00:22:45.000 And the reason that's so significant is in the now classic Meet Ray Eps part 2 revolver piece, we go through in detail the cast of characters who were all conveniently pre-positioned right at that breach site before the Proud Boys even got there.
00:23:03.000 And these people that we cover, many of whom have never been positively identified due to lack of clear footage, these people played a key role in turning this rally into a riot, whether by cutting fences, whether by positioning themselves on top of scaffolding in order to direct the crowd to move forward and go into the Capitol.
00:23:27.000 Key players here who, unlike even EPS, have never even been identified.
00:23:32.000 Like, for instance, the scaffold commander, whom I've talked about on this program before.
00:23:37.000 A close and careful observation of all the capital police's footage of that peace monument area from say beginning with 10 o'clock all the way up to say 12:30 or 12:50 when the breach occurred.
00:23:53.000 That if it could yield some high-quality footage of some of these as of yet unidentified characters, the results could be explosive and game-changing.
00:24:05.000 I think that's really clear.
00:24:07.000 And so, final question, Darren.
00:24:09.000 Strategically, if we're running into just a labor impasse, we can't get through it.
00:24:14.000 Is there an argument just to democratize this and upload it on Reddit and just let the internet do what the internet does?
00:24:21.000 You know, that's been my default position when it comes to all of these things.
00:24:25.000 I'd say just kind of WikiLeaks said, Crowdsource it, right?
00:24:30.000 Yeah, outsource it, leave it out to the public.
00:24:33.000 I think Elon should have done that with Twitter files.
00:24:35.000 I agree.
00:24:36.000 And in this case, you know, what's to lose?
00:24:39.000 And then, you know, it preempts these disingenuous arguments like from Obama's chief propagandist, Rick Stengel, when he says, Oh, this is the people's footage.
00:24:47.000 This is the people's footage.
00:24:48.000 Okay, call the bluff, release it to the public, and see him scream even louder.
00:24:53.000 Yeah, by the way, the response is for him to have it and nobody else.
00:24:56.000 Okay, so they compare January 6th to the Civil War and they call it an insurrection.
00:25:03.000 If it's indeed that, then they should have zero fear to have 41,000 hours of the insurrection made public.
00:25:12.000 That should only strengthen their argument.
00:25:14.000 That should only make them, you know, more powerful to be able to build a new security state.
00:25:20.000 But instead, there's a lot of anxiety throughout the regime that the more information about it, it actually might weaken their narrative.
00:25:30.000 All right, Darren, thank you so much.
00:25:32.000 Imagine if there was video footage of Britain in the War of 1812 burning down the White House.
00:25:38.000 That would probably animate many Americans.
00:25:41.000 That's what they've compared this to.
00:25:43.000 But instead, they're pretty nervous.
00:25:44.000 I wonder why.
00:25:48.000 Did you know that gold was the best performing asset in 2022?
00:25:52.000 Through all record-breaking inflation rates, crashing markets, and crypto scams, there is one asset that held its own.
00:25:58.000 It is gold.
00:25:58.000 Noble Gold Investments helps thousands of clients buy real physical gold last year.

00:26:53.000 We have Jenny Beth Martin from Tea Party Patriots website: teapartypatriots.org.
00:26:57.000 And then Tyler Boyer, you guys all know Tyler, turning point action.
00:27:00.000 But Jenny Beth, tell us about the work you're doing at Tea Party Patriots.
00:27:03.000 Well, the last two years we're focused on securing elections.
00:27:06.000 And on the conservative, in the conservative movement, we had an amazing coalition of groups working together to make sure that we can enact election integrity.
00:27:15.000 The next two years, we have to secure elections, and we've got to replicate that same kind of coalition to win elections.
00:27:22.000 That's what Tyler and I have been talking about.
00:27:23.000 Is the RNC doing any of this, Tyler?
00:27:25.000 Look, we need a lot more outside the RNC doing this work.
00:27:29.000 And so everybody's got to come together on the grassroots side in order to actually move the needle on organizing grassroots activism.
00:27:37.000 The grassroots don't know who to trust, and we need to give them vehicles and infrastructure with messaging that resonates with them that isn't trying to just give them $10 to go support Lindsey Graham's adventures for the NRSC.
00:27:49.000 10 seconds.
00:27:50.000 We need to fund the good groups that people trust, and they trust the Tea Party, and they trust Turning Point, and they trust a number of us that are out there.
00:27:57.000 And that trust has been earned over the years, Tea Party especially.
00:28:00.000 Spilled a lot of blood here.
00:28:01.000 Everybody, you should support Tea Party Patriots.
00:28:03.000 They're terrific.
00:28:04.000 We're going to talk about action, action, action.
00:28:06.000 Email us freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:28:07.000 Jenny Beth, the grassroots, they feel lied to, deceived.
00:28:11.000 They're really scorned for good reason.
00:28:13.000 How do we organize the grassroots to positive, meaningful, measurable action in 2024?
00:28:18.000 I think one of the biggest things that we have to do is make sure that the groups who are doing good work are working together and building a coalition to help bring the grassroots in, train the grassroots, and then activate the grassroots so they can go take meaningful action.
00:28:32.000 That's what we try to do at Tea Party Patriots.
00:28:34.000 We try to take all that passion and emotion about energies and about issues and turn it into meaningful action.
00:28:42.000 We did that with election integrity over the last two years.
00:28:45.000 And a lot of groups in the conservative movement came together and built an amazing coalition.
00:28:49.000 So we secured elections, except for in Arizona, we're not at all.
00:28:55.000 And then so we've got to focus on securing elections in the next two years and winning.
00:29:00.000 We have to win elections as well.
00:29:01.000 Tyler.
00:29:02.000 Yeah.
00:29:02.000 And that's really the message that we're having, which is two-sided, right?
00:29:05.000 Which is we've got to take out the people getting in the way of securing elections, which is what we did here in Arizona after they didn't do it.
00:29:12.000 Yes.
00:29:12.000 Rusty Bowers.
00:29:13.000 But I mean, look, you have the second part, which is you still got to win.
00:29:17.000 Right.
00:29:17.000 And if you're going to trust the establishment, old school, you know, the Republican patriarchy, as we call it, if you trust that oligarchy, the patriarch, the patriarchy.
00:29:30.000 And obviously, we're staying that tug-in-cheek, just joking.
00:29:32.000 But I mean, you're not going to win because we've lost numerous elections that way of just trusting the process.
00:29:38.000 And so you have to have these groups come in on the outside.
00:29:41.000 And this is what the left does really well, right?
00:29:43.000 So the message that I've been blasting to people, the left has the infrastructure of C3s and C4s.
00:29:48.000 They're well-funded.
00:29:50.000 They do the grunt work, right?
00:29:51.000 Because they're actually ears to the ground in the states and communities winning elections from everything from dog catcher all the way to these U.S. Senate rates.
00:29:59.000 Let's get action items.
00:30:00.000 Let's just start with this.
00:30:01.000 There's an incredible amount of email solicitations that are sent out by the DC scummy consultants that our audience gets to double match, triple donate.
00:30:09.000 They got to stop giving money to these people.
00:30:11.000 Yeah.
00:30:12.000 You can like.
00:30:12.000 Stop giving money to the RNC.
00:30:14.000 Stop giving money to the NRSC.
00:30:15.000 Stop giving money to all these people.
00:30:16.000 Yeah, they're like, cut them off.
00:30:18.000 You can come tour Trump's, you know.
00:30:20.000 It's such a joke, Jenny Beth.
00:30:21.000 There are groups that are doing real and meaningful work, and they need donations so that they can make a difference.
00:30:27.000 It's not just Tea Party Patriots and Turning Point, which do amazing work, but Conservative Partnership Institute did great work.
00:30:34.000 You've got Freedom Works does great work.
00:30:37.000 There are a lot of groups who do a lot of great work.
00:30:39.000 Students for Life, there are groups who do great work, and we need to be supporting them.
00:30:44.000 So the grassroots, they say that what do I do?
00:30:47.000 I mean, I have a sign right behind me.
00:30:49.000 This is a great segue, Tyler.
00:30:50.000 I've been talking about this all month.
00:30:51.000 Everybody listening, tpaction.com.
00:30:53.000 I don't want to hear a complaint if you are not a precinct leader.
00:30:56.000 It's that simple.
00:30:57.000 tpaction.com.
00:30:58.000 Tyler, what is a precinct leader?
00:30:59.000 Look, everybody has to get involved at the local level.
00:31:02.000 You and I hear more complaints from people about like, oh, I'm so mad at this.
00:31:06.000 And we see it on Twitter.
00:31:06.000 We have a whole inbox of it.
00:31:08.000 And the number one thing is like, well, did you show up to your central committee meeting?
00:31:12.000 Have you become an official?
00:31:14.000 The Republican Party is just a party.
00:31:16.000 It's like a party party, right?
00:31:17.000 Where it's like a party is great when the right people show up to it, right?
00:31:21.000 Right.
00:31:22.000 And the fact is, is that most of the case in most places where you probably are located, the wrong people are just the only ones showing up to the party.
00:31:30.000 So you've got to get involved.
00:31:31.000 How do you get involved?
00:31:32.000 You become a precinct leader.
00:31:33.000 That's a precinct committeeman, a precinct captain, a precinct chair, slightly different nomenclature in every state.
00:31:38.000 But you can go to tpaction.com/slash PC, get involved, or tpaction.com slash get involved.
00:31:47.000 The time commitment is a couple hours, a quarter, maybe.
00:31:50.000 And here's the deal: it's two major functions.
00:31:52.000 You decide who becomes the GOP leadership, then.
00:31:55.000 And then, second, that's the crux for getting involved and knocking doors and actually making sure ballots get in and our voters show up.
00:32:04.000 That's right.
00:32:06.000 I went to my precinct meeting back in 1994, and within three or four weeks, I was heading up the platform committee for my county.
00:32:14.000 So there are a lot of opportunities, but they need people to volunteer, but you can't do it if you don't show up at the party level.
00:32:21.000 One of the things we've been talking about as we move into elections next year is that we've got to be very innovative with how we get out the vote.
00:32:29.000 We've got to make sure that we're tracking ballots, that we're chasing ballots, and that if people have decided they're voting by mail, that we're making sure that our voters are turning those ballots back in and actually casting their votes.
00:32:40.000 Well, and because of this, ballot tracking is election integrity, right?
00:32:44.000 That's right.
00:32:45.000 There is no, and this is like one of the misnomers is like, oh, well, chasing ballots, early voting.
00:32:50.000 Guys, if you're not putting eyes on who's voting in real time, how are you going to catch fraud?
00:32:55.000 How are you going to catch inconsistencies?
00:32:57.000 How are you going to catch issues, right?
00:33:00.000 That's how we're missing that vote because we're not doing that work.
00:33:03.000 And we need the tens of millions of dollars in their key target states in order to do that.
00:33:07.000 Charlie?
00:33:08.000 Check it out.
00:33:08.000 tpaction.com, teapartypatriots.org.
00:33:10.000 Look, you have to become a precinct leader.
00:33:12.000 Someone said in Tennessee, they don't have it.
00:33:14.000 Get involved in the local level.
00:33:15.000 There's an equivalent to it.
00:33:17.000 Okay.
00:33:17.000 It's just a vocabulary issue.
00:33:19.000 Get involved in the local level.
00:33:20.000 Tpartypatriots.org, tpaction.com.
00:33:22.000 Wish we have more time, guys.
00:33:23.000 Thank you, Charlie.
