The Charlie Kirk Show - The Big “Bloodbath” Lie

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:00:01.000 Andrew Colvett filling in for Charlie, who's on assignment at San Diego State University, arguing with leftist students.

00:00:08.000 Content will be forthcoming.

00:00:09.000 You're not going to want to miss it.

00:00:10.000 In the meantime, we have lots to cover, including the newest, the newest hoax in a long string of hoaxes, the bloodbath hoax.

00:00:20.000 We dive into it and we show why it's probably part of a wrap-up smear led by none other than Nancy Pelosi.

00:00:27.000 And the media incredibly is doubling down.

00:00:30.000 We break it all down for you.

00:00:31.000 And then Charlie calls in en route to campus to give his take on it and also to reflect on the changing demographics and the new registrants, a changing of the guard politically that we're observing and that Charlie is at the tip of the spear of on the ground at campus.

00:00:47.000 So don't go anywhere.

00:00:48.000 Buckle up.

00:00:49.000 Here we go.

00:00:50.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:51.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

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, 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.

00:01:19.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:48.000 We're going to dive right into this bloodbath hoax. 0.97

00:01:52.000 It was all the news this weekend, and Charlie had a couple tweets that went totally viral.

00:01:58.000 Just, you know, calling it what it is.

00:02:01.000 It's a hoax, people.

00:02:02.000 As much as you hate the news media, the legacy news media, you don't hate them enough.

00:02:08.000 They are the enemy of the people. 0.91

00:02:10.000 I want to show you this just really quick graphic, really quick.

00:02:14.000 It's endemic of what happens when the news media take something and they run with it, even when they know that it's a lie.

00:02:22.000 Put up image 13 for me, if you would, studio.

00:02:25.000 Image 13, this is NBC news, CBS news, Rolling Stone.

00:02:30.000 Trump says there will be a bloodbath if he loses the election.

00:02:34.000 In Ohio Rally, Trump says there will be a bloodbath.

00:02:36.000 Trump says there will be a bloodbath.

00:02:39.000 And they took this and then they ran with it.

00:02:42.000 And then all of the Sunday talkers, all the news on Sunday morning was just about this single topic.

00:02:51.000 And they got called out on the lie because it was phony.

00:02:55.000 It was absolutely phony.

00:02:58.000 So let's play what Trump actually said from the Trump speech.

00:03:03.000 Let's play what he actually said. 0.75

00:03:05.000 And then you guys will just have to not believe your lying eyes.

00:03:09.000 You will have to suspend consciousness for at least 30 seconds here to get to the same conclusion as the legacy news media.

00:03:18.000 It is truly something to behold.

00:03:21.000 Cup 14.

00:03:22.000 Those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now.

00:03:29.000 And you think you're going to get that?

00:03:31.000 You're going to not hire Americans and you're going to sell the cars to us. 1.00

00:03:34.000 No, we're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line.

00:03:40.000 And you're not going to be able to sell those guys.

00:03:42.000 If I get elected, now if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole...

00:03:48.000 That's going to be the least of it.

00:03:49.000 It's going to be a bloodbath for the country.

00:03:51.000 That'll be the least of it.

00:03:53.000 Okay, so he's talking about the car makers.

00:03:57.000 He's speaking directly to them.

00:03:59.000 He's talking about electric vehicles.

00:04:01.000 He's saying that if Biden gets elected, then guess what?

00:04:05.000 China's going to set up all these factories in Mexico and they're going to ship them into the United States. 0.57

00:04:09.000 It's going to obliterate.

00:04:10.000 It's going to be a bloodbath for the automakers in Detroit and elsewhere.

00:04:15.000 Which, of course, he's completely right.

00:04:18.000 China has an absolute dead set agenda to take out America, to weaken it economically. 0.91

00:04:25.000 And one of the vectors of that attack is going to be with the automakers.

00:04:29.000 So this hoax got called out on X, formerly known as Twitter.

00:04:36.000 And of all people, guess who deleted one of their hoax tweets?

00:04:41.000 That would be Morning Joe Joe Scarborough.

00:04:44.000 And he is so you thought maybe he would be correcting the record.

00:04:49.000 You thought maybe he was going to say, hey, listen, listen, it was taken out of context.

00:04:54.000 You know, obviously there's a lot of rhetoric going around these days, the heated rhetoric.

00:04:58.000 We got to bring the temperature down.

00:05:00.000 Hey, we deleted it because, you know, listen, there's enough to critique on Donald Trump.

00:05:05.000 We don't need to be making stuff up.

00:05:06.000 No, that's not what he said.

00:05:08.000 He doubled down. 1.00

00:05:10.000 He's calling you an idiot. 1.00

00:05:12.000 Cut four. 1.00

00:05:13.000 He's talking about a bloodbath for America.

00:05:16.000 It's laid out in the terms of it. 1.00

00:05:18.000 And these idiots on Twitter, these idiots on cable news, these idiots on Sunday shows going, where are you? 1.00

00:05:27.000 Well, president, you know, he was talking only about the auto industry. 1.00

00:05:31.000 And this is one more. 1.00

00:05:33.000 It's just bullshit. 0.99

00:05:34.000 Let me say that at 6:15 a.m. 1.00

00:05:36.000 It's just bullshit. 1.00

00:05:38.000 These people may be stupid. 1.00

00:05:40.000 We're not. 1.00

00:05:43.000 That's called a self-own people.

00:05:45.000 Joe Scarborough, just a total gentleman at six in the morning.

00:05:50.000 He's just throwing out swear words right on national television.

00:05:54.000 I hope they get fined massively, as this show would get fined for swearing on national television.

00:05:59.000 But he probably won't.

00:06:01.000 He probably won't be.

00:06:02.000 Nancy Pelosi rushed to CNN to do the same thing.

00:06:05.000 Cut five.

00:06:06.000 He's even predicting a bloodbath.

00:06:09.000 What does that mean?

00:06:09.000 He's going to exact a bloodbath.

00:06:12.000 There's something wrong here.

00:06:14.000 How respectful I am of the American people and their goodness.

00:06:19.000 But how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn't what our country is about?

00:06:27.000 But you know, something stinks when it comes to Nancy Pelosi rushing to CNN. 0.84

00:06:32.000 She thought she had an in. 0.73

00:06:34.000 And we have some tape here that explains exactly maybe why Nancy was so keen to rush on CNN and do the wrap-up smear.

00:06:43.000 You ever heard of a wrap-up smear?

00:06:46.000 Well, we have, and so has Nancy. 0.94

00:06:48.000 Go ahead and play Cut 15. 1.00

00:06:50.000 Called the wrap-up smear.

00:06:51.000 You smear somebody with falsehoods and all the rest, and then you merchandise it.

00:06:58.000 And then you write it.

00:06:59.000 And they'll say, see, it's reported in the press that this, this, this, and this.

00:07:04.000 So they have that validation that the press reported the smear.

00:07:09.000 And then it's called the wrap-up smear.

00:07:10.000 Now I'm going to merchandise the press's report on the smear that we made.

00:07:15.000 And it's a tactic.

00:07:17.000 And it's self-evident.

00:07:20.000 Oh, are you merchandising the wrap-up smear by running to CNN and reinforcing a total and complete lie?

00:07:31.000 Because that's certainly what it looks like you're doing.

00:07:33.000 And I'm so glad that you walked us through step by step how this works.

00:07:39.000 Again, people, if you do not hate the legacy news media yet, you should.

00:07:44.000 And as much as you hate them, you should probably hate them more.

00:07:48.000 When we say they are the enemy of the people, they really and truly are.

00:07:54.000 This, by the way, feels so much.

00:07:57.000 And Producer Blake made this point.

00:07:58.000 I completely agree.

00:08:00.000 This feels like 2016 all over again.

00:08:04.000 It just, it's like election season and the Trump hoaxes just have to begin.

00:08:10.000 Remember back in 2016 when Trump said that he wished Russia or anybody else would find Hillary Clinton's missing emails?

00:08:17.000 Do you remember this?

00:08:18.000 What a massive story this became.

00:08:21.000 So this is Trump basically calling the fake news what it is.

00:08:25.000 Fake news media and their Democrat partners, the destruction of our nation pretended to be shocked at my use of the word bloodbath, even though they fully understood I was simply referring to imports allowed by crooked Joe Biden, which are killing the automobile industry.

00:08:40.000 The United Auto Workers, but not their leadership, fully understand what I mean with the electric car mandate being pushed by Biden.

00:08:48.000 There soon won't be any cars made in the USA unless I'm elected president.

00:08:52.000 So, okay, this is a completely manufactured hoax.

00:08:55.000 I completely agree with President Trump in that way.

00:09:02.000 Folks, so many people I know are disheartened that our country seems to have forgotten the importance of citizenship and they wonder how a strong sense of citizenship might be revived.

00:09:11.000 That's why my friends at Hillsdale College have produced a free online course on this topic, American Citizenship and Its Decline.

00:09:18.000 Taught by historian Victor Davis Hansen, the course traces the history of citizenship and explains how it is undermined in America today by open borders, by identity politics, by the administrative state, and by globalization.

00:09:31.000 Americans taking the course will gain a deeper insight about the connection between citizenship and freedom, an insight they can share with their family members, friends, and neighbors.

00:09:40.000 Hillsdale's free online courses are an important component of Hillsdale's mission to reach and teach increasing millions of people on behalf of liberty and the American way of life.

00:09:50.000 So sign up today for Hillsdale's free online course, American Citizenship and Its Decline, by visiting charlieforhillsdale.com.

00:09:58.000 That is charlieforhillsdale.com.

00:10:00.000 Start your free course today at charlie4hillsdale.com.

00:10:06.000 Get ready.

00:10:07.000 This is this is going to keep happening.

00:10:09.000 The hoaxes are going to keep rolling in because we have a news media that is an enemy of the people.

00:10:14.000 It's a sad truth, but it's the truth.

00:10:16.000 So I promise this clip, let's go ahead and play it.

00:10:18.000 Cut 17. 0.97

00:10:20.000 That a person in our government, Katie, would delete or get rid of 33,000 emails.

00:10:26.000 That gives me a big problem.

00:10:28.000 After she gets a subpoena, she gets subpoenaed and she gets rid of 33,000 emails.

00:10:33.000 That gives me a problem.

00:10:34.000 Now, if Russia or China or any other country has those emails, I mean, to be honest with you, I'd love to see them.

00:10:41.000 Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.

00:10:50.000 I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.

00:10:55.000 So to me, this is the perfect analog to what we're experiencing right now with this bloodbath hoax, which the media is doubling down on, currently doubling down on.

00:10:55.000 All right.

00:11:05.000 They think that they are totally justified, even though it's plainly obvious to anybody with a brain that Trump was talking about the automotive industry.

00:11:14.000 In this clip, Trump was talking about Russia and other foreign actors basically having access to U.S. secrets because Hillary Clinton had emails stored on a private server, and then she deleted them illegally and was never held accountable for them.

00:11:31.000 Trump was making the point, obviously, that when you hold emails on a private server, that you are now vulnerable to having those emails hacked when you're the Secretary of State for the president at the executive level, and foreign actors might want to hack your server to get intel on you.

00:11:49.000 So Trump is plainly making ingest saying, hey, I'm sure you already have these.

00:11:54.000 Why don't you leak these to the press?

00:11:56.000 And then we can really have a story about it.

00:11:58.000 The media had spent years moaning and groaning about that clip.

00:12:04.000 It was the predicate for the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax. 0.87

00:12:09.000 It was the starting point.

00:12:11.000 In fact, James Comey himself says he began to suspect that Trump was a Russian asset because of that clip I just played you, where he was obviously joking, obviously saying something in jest, and obviously poking at Hillary Clinton's flagrant abuse of classified documents on a private server and then deleting those 30,000 emails so that the world would never know.

00:12:35.000 Well, I'm sure some foreign actors did know what was on that server.

00:12:39.000 And Trump was making that point clear as day where normal Americans could understand it.

00:12:43.000 But you know who couldn't understand it? 0.96

00:12:45.000 The brain-dead media.

00:12:47.000 The brain-dead media that are so incentivized because they're all left-wingers, just about 90% of the media is left-wing.

00:12:55.000 And so they're incentivized to use these types of clips against Trump, create hoaxes, and then as Nancy Pelosi said, the wrap-up smear, where they merchandise it because the press will print it and then it justifies what they say about it.

00:13:10.000 And when I say that the media is doubling down on this, I really mean they're doubling down on this.

00:13:15.000 Play cut three.

00:13:16.000 The Sunday shows were filled with questions about two eye-catching comments Trump made last night.

00:13:22.000 In one, Trump said migrants are not people.

00:13:25.000 And in the other, he painted a dark future for the country if he does not win.

00:13:31.000 And this is Maria Cardona goes on to say his cult MAGA supporters and followers totally know exactly what he was telling them.

00:13:38.000 And guess what?

00:13:39.000 They demonstrated that on January 6th.

00:13:43.000 Everything comes back to January 6th.

00:13:46.000 And that's why we had Kash Patel on the show on Friday documenting how the January 6th committee destroyed evidence, exonerating evidence, such as Trump had 10,000, had approved 10,000 National Guard troops to be on the ground on January 6th.

00:14:02.000 They deleted, destroyed documentation.

00:14:05.000 Why?

00:14:06.000 Because it is the hinge.

00:14:08.000 It is the crux of so much of their justification for fighting Donald Trump, for getting Donald Trump, for the lawfare assault on Donald Trump that we've seen.

00:14:17.000 That's why he's facing 700 years in federal prison right now.

00:14:21.000 Everything hinges on their ability to paint Donald Trump as an extreme MAGA dictator, fascist, whatever.

00:14:30.000 And that is why we see all these different through lines, these threads connect to it.

00:14:35.000 And now the bloodbath hoax is just the newest iteration in an age-old assault on Donald Trump because they cannot control him.

00:14:42.000 He is an existential threat to them.

00:14:46.000 Okay, Kirk fans, I need you to stop and pay attention to this.

00:14:50.000 If you deal with exhaustion, brain fog, mood swings, or food cravings, if you're constantly getting sick or simply lack the zeal you used to have in life, then I have some news for you.

00:15:00.000 While back, I found a liquid supplement called Strong Cell, and it changed my health in a very profound way.

00:15:05.000 I take it every single day.

00:15:08.000 Look, I knew I had to partner with them.

00:15:09.000 I did the research.

00:15:10.000 Google and look up online what happens when you mix NADH with CoQ10 and marine collagen.

00:15:16.000 It's simple.

00:15:17.000 Every area of your body has cells.

00:15:19.000 So if your cells are healthier, then you will also be healthier.

00:15:23.000 You don't have to take my word for it.

00:15:24.000 Listen to one of these testimonials.

00:15:26.000 After taking Strong Cell for six weeks, I found improvement in many areas, less shoulder pain, improved mental clarity, increased natural energy, and so much more.

00:15:32.000 I'm thankful that Charlie Kirk recommended this to his listeners.

00:15:35.000 Rebecca says, I absolutely love Strong Cell.

00:15:39.000 At first, I didn't think it would make much of a difference for my chronic fatigue, depression, and anxiety, but I thought I'd give it a chance.

00:15:44.000 I've tried to find depression meds for 10 years.

00:15:46.000 And since you Strong Cell, I'm feeling better than I ever have on depression medication.

00:15:51.000 Customer for life.

00:15:52.000 Thank you, Charlie Kirk, for recommending this product.

00:15:55.000 So there it is.

00:15:55.000 You've heard from me directly and some of the users who have seen their lives changed by Strong Cell.

00:16:00.000 I personally recommend taking it every day for at least 30 days.

00:16:04.000 I take it every day before I go on the air, and it's helped me in more ways than I can even name.

00:16:08.000 Each of our bodies is very different.

00:16:10.000 So I would recommend you give the supplement at least two to three months to see the changes in your body.

00:16:43.000 Charlie, welcome to your own show.

00:16:46.000 Oh, this is surreal.

00:16:47.000 You're doing a great job, Andrew.

00:16:50.000 I'm just feed away from going on campus here.

00:16:52.000 And just want to make sure we called in and gave a little update.

00:16:55.000 There's so much news happening.

00:16:56.000 You're doing a great job covering all of it.

00:16:58.000 This bloodbath thing is noteworthy, I think, for a couple of reasons.

00:17:02.000 But I know we'll get into that.

00:17:04.000 But yeah, things are going great on this campus swing campus tour.

00:17:07.000 I'm going to go do a during the day kind of midday campus event, which is some of our favorite stuff.

00:17:13.000 Then have some meetings.

00:17:15.000 And then we have our evening event tonight.

00:17:16.000 We've already oversold it two or three times over.

00:17:19.000 And last night we had our church event with John Randall.

00:17:22.000 We had well over 1,300 people there.

00:17:25.000 We could have fit another thousand people, just way oversold that as well.

00:17:28.000 So the energy on the ground is terrific.

00:17:30.000 It's off the charts.

00:17:31.000 And I mentioned this last week: the diversity of people that are attending these events.

00:17:37.000 I'm talking about Hispanic and black and Asian.

00:17:40.000 And we're seeing it in the numbers now.

00:17:42.000 We see it in the New York Times data that new voters and low-propensity voters are increasingly tilting towards the Republican direction.

00:17:50.000 And we're seeing it on the ground.

00:17:51.000 We're trying to do our part.

00:17:52.000 So lots to cover.

00:17:54.000 And thanks for filling in, Andrew.

00:17:56.000 Yeah, I mean, it's an honor, Charlie.

00:17:58.000 And people really don't have an idea, a proper understanding of how busy you actually are.

00:18:04.000 I mean, you had that church event last night.

00:18:06.000 And I mean, it seems like, you know, all of them subscribe to the podcast because we're getting tons of messages and reviews, and everybody's very excited about it.

00:18:15.000 But, you know, you have this campus event today.

00:18:17.000 You're doing the tabling and the prove me wrong or, you know, the sorry, you know, change my mind.

00:18:25.000 And it all builds together.

00:18:27.000 It all is part of a whole.

00:18:29.000 People don't have a vision for all of it.

00:18:31.000 You know, you talk about a lot on this show about the Chase the Ballot, Chase the Vote initiative.

00:18:36.000 You talk about our campus chapters, all of these things.

00:18:39.000 But in its totality, you are literally a juggernaut.

00:18:42.000 You're a one-man guy that's that I don't, I just know that people do not appreciate your schedule and what you are actually getting accomplished.

00:18:51.000 But they do see these clips, Charlie.

00:18:54.000 This is before we get into this bloodbath thing, I want to play some of this from what happens on campus so people realize what you're doing and you're about to do in a few minutes here.

00:19:02.000 Let's play Cut 18.

00:19:04.000 Are you truthfully like here to try to change people's minds, or is there kind of a benefit to keeping people divided?

00:19:11.000 How am I dividing people if I ask you if you disagree, you come to the mic?

00:19:14.000 Well, no, I'm just saying it's like you, you have these like clickbaity titles.

00:19:18.000 It says like prove me wrong. 1.00

00:19:19.000 What is a woman? 1.00

00:19:20.000 You're dividing things very black and white.

00:19:22.000 What is a woman is not a clickbaity title.

00:19:24.000 What is a woman?

00:19:24.000 I think it is.

00:19:27.000 I'm not trying to answer that.

00:19:28.000 Your critics are saying that you're trying to keep people divided.

00:19:30.000 They're urging people not to come talk to you because you're going to spin it.

00:19:33.000 What would you like to say to like your critics? 0.95

00:19:35.000 They're welcome to come to the microphone and say whatever they want to me, but they're intellectual cowards and they won't do that.

00:19:40.000 You know how we heal our divides by talking to people we disagree with.

00:19:43.000 I would agree with that.

00:19:44.000 We will get closer to a civil war if we act like that.

00:19:47.000 You heal the country when you allow disagreement and you allow a microphone with people that have differing views.

00:19:53.000 That's the great Charlie Kirk right there.

00:19:55.000 Charlie, you've created a whole genre of these videos.

00:19:58.000 And you have a lot of people that attempt to do it like this.

00:20:03.000 But for some reason, you are the A team when it comes to this.

00:20:08.000 You have set the standard.

00:20:09.000 What is it like when you meet these kids?

00:20:12.000 And you have no idea what they're going to say.

00:20:14.000 You have no idea what they're going to approach you with.

00:20:16.000 Are they going to try and get you?

00:20:17.000 What's your approach?

00:20:18.000 How do you mentally get in that headspace?

00:20:20.000 Yeah, you know, you just have to try to remain calm and have dialogue and, you know, want to try to pursue the truth.

00:20:26.000 And I think it actually interestingly connects to this bloodbath story because you think about it.

00:20:31.000 This guy came up to the microphone there and he had a very specific opinion of me.

00:20:36.000 And we talked about it.

00:20:37.000 And then other people are able to judge who's the reasonable person.

00:20:40.000 And you looked at, you know, Trump said perfectly, you know, fair things saying that the automobile industry is going to go through a bloodbath if he's not elected and the country will not be in a good place.

00:20:50.000 And the media doesn't ask for comment.

00:20:52.000 They don't ask for follow-up.

00:20:53.000 They don't ask for clarification.

00:20:55.000 And they just peddled this outright lie to try to misrepresent Donald Trump and our entire movement.

00:21:01.000 And connecting back to the campus thing, I see this.

00:21:04.000 Like you become a more radical, harsher country if you don't speak to one another.

00:21:09.000 And, you know, I get the number one question I get from, I'd say like center left dissent is, why are you here?

00:21:14.000 Why are you here?

00:21:15.000 Which is kind of a bizarre question.

00:21:17.000 It's pretty obvious why I'm there.

00:21:18.000 First, it's to support our amazing turning point USA students.

00:21:22.000 And Andrew, you've been around them.

00:21:23.000 They're like the most incredible, just inspiring patriots who get their teeth kicked in every day for their viewpoint and their worldview.

00:21:34.000 And so it's to support them, number one.

00:21:36.000 Number two, it's just to show the other students that they're not in the intellectual minority as much as they might think.

00:21:41.000 And there's hundreds of other students that see the world the way they do.

00:21:45.000 And then number three is let's see how strong the ideas of the academy actually are.

00:21:51.000 And if their ideas were truly bulletproof, then there would be professors lining up one after the other.

00:21:58.000 Think about this.

00:21:59.000 You have an opportunity.

00:22:00.000 You know, we're rather well known now, praise God, and we have millions of followers.

00:22:05.000 All it would take is for one professor to come up.

00:22:07.000 He could bring his own camera crew and quote unquote prove Charlie Kirk wrong.

00:22:11.000 And he would get like a big video out of it.

00:22:14.000 But they don't do that because speech is not a left-wing value.

00:22:18.000 In fact, they are threatened by dialogue.

00:22:20.000 They're threatened by free discourse.

00:22:22.000 And so our kind of presence on campus is trying to have a restoration of the eternal idea that every human being has a right for a different opinion and that good ideas need to be expressed and bad ideas need to be challenged.

00:22:39.000 And I believe one of the reasons that people think we're so divided in this country is we don't talk to one another enough.

00:22:44.000 We don't have those kind of tough conversations in the pursuit of truth.

00:22:47.000 And instead, we kind of just go into our own, you know, created echo chambers and call each other names.

00:22:53.000 And that's the opposite of what we're going to do today.

00:22:55.000 And it's a hostile campus.

00:22:57.000 I can't wait.

00:22:58.000 I'm told there's a bunch of protesters and I'm sure there'll be a lot of fans and supporters too.

00:23:02.000 And I hope everyone recognizes and realizes that, you know, for every one protester, every one disagreement, there's 20 or 30 people that agree that sit through the entire change my mind and they want pictures and they tell me, thank you so much.

00:23:14.000 I'm alone.

00:23:14.000 I'm being graded down because of, you know, my viewpoint.

00:23:18.000 So it's really important work.

00:23:20.000 And I think it connects to a lot of the news stories we're covering today.

00:23:23.000 And I believe that the moment that we as conservatives don't go into places that openly disagree with us, we will be writing our own eulogy.

00:23:33.000 But I think the more we go into these hostile environments, the more especially we spread these videos on social media.

00:23:39.000 You know, I don't want to take credit for it, Andrew, but maybe you can queue it up because you have it in front of you.

00:23:43.000 I think it parlays beautifully into that New York Times article that I want to talk about, which is we are seeing a realignment.

00:23:49.000 And I think part of it is, again, part of it is this mentality.

00:23:52.000 And Matt Walsh deserves credit and Ben Shapiro and Candace Ellens when she speaks with us.

00:23:56.000 I think that there's a group of us that have just been non-stop pressure campaign to go to places that disagree with us.

00:24:03.000 And I think we're starting to see real penetration and movement.

00:24:06.000 Andrew, can you talk about this realignment story?

00:24:08.000 I think it's really interesting.

00:24:09.000 Yeah, I'm actually going to have the team bring up the graphic here.

00:24:13.000 It's truly important.

00:24:14.000 So this New York Times story is basically showing that since 2019, every single demographic age group has share of new major party registrants who were Democratic has dropped.

00:24:30.000 So for example, overall, all new registrants were 58% Democrat.

00:24:36.000 That has now dropped to 53%.

00:24:37.000 That's a five-point loss.

00:24:40.000 18 to 29, Charlie, and this one's huge.

00:24:44.000 63% were registering Democrats.

00:24:46.000 Now only 57.

00:24:48.000 Now, and it's that famous quote often attributed to Churchill.

00:24:51.000 We're not sure.

00:24:52.000 But if you, you know, if they say if you're a conservative when you're young, you're heartless. 0.99

00:24:57.000 If you're a liberal when you're older, you're brainless.

00:25:02.000 So, you know, it kind of feels like if you're still not getting, if you're 57%, you're under 60% now with 18 to 29, that's a massive, massive change.

00:25:13.000 Now you look at 45 to 64, so that's kind of like your Gen Xers. 0.98

00:25:17.000 They're only getting 46%.

00:25:20.000 Gen Xers are going to save the country.

00:25:21.000 I'm almost convinced of it.

00:25:23.000 But to your point, Charlie, I've said that for a while.

00:25:26.000 Yeah.

00:25:27.000 You totally and Jack Pesobic says similar things.

00:25:29.000 And here's the thing.

00:25:30.000 When you do what you've done and when you start a turning point, a lot of people looked at you sideways for this, but you went straight into the lion's den.

00:25:38.000 You went to the hardest places to have speech as a conservative and you started forcefully pushing back, forcefully pushing back.

00:25:46.000 And I think the conservative of conservatives of old prioritized being a gentleman and all these things, which are good virtues.

00:25:54.000 But when you're dealing with an existential threat and in many ways, ideological evil that wants to trans your kids, wants to lie about your country, call everybody systemically racist, you're now, you got to understand, and I know this is cliche at this point, what time it is.

00:26:08.000 And you were one of the first to do that.

00:26:10.000 And you went into these campuses and you had the hard conversations.

00:26:14.000 And now we're starting to see the fruit of it.

00:26:15.000 And you're starting to see other people assume the same kind of posture.

00:26:20.000 People call it divisive.

00:26:22.000 And in some ways, ideologically, it has to be because the ideas that they're now pushing, especially on our kids, are so incredibly vile that you have to hit them right in the face.

00:26:33.000 You have to take them head on.

00:26:35.000 And I want to play one more clip from Charlie on campus in this recent tour for our audience to hear it and see it, to get just how intense these moments can get.

00:26:43.000 But the breakthrough is real.

00:26:44.000 Play Cut 19.

00:26:46.000 I want you to take on immigration.

00:26:47.000 If you're in this country illegally, you should be deported. 1.00

00:26:50.000 We should also restrict the amount of legal immigrants coming into this country as well. 1.00

00:26:53.000 So you believe that everyone, no matter what you've done, deserves to get deported if they're illegal.

00:26:57.000 They broke into our home.

00:26:57.000 They didn't do nothing.

00:26:58.000 They know what they did.

00:26:59.000 They trespassed.

00:26:59.000 They domiciled themselves illegally.

00:27:01.000 And you should be sent back to your country of origin. 1.00

00:27:03.000 What about for the kids?

00:27:04.000 Go back to your country of origin. 1.00

00:27:06.000 So you would tell me to go back to my country?

00:27:08.000 Are you born here or not?

00:27:08.000 I'm born here.

00:27:09.000 Well, I think we should get rid of birthright citizenship, but technically we have it. 1.00

00:27:12.000 So you should stay.

00:27:13.000 But I'm contributing to society.

00:27:13.000 But yes.

00:27:14.000 Good for you.

00:27:15.000 Okay, but did your parents come here illegally?

00:27:16.000 Yeah. 0.75

00:27:17.000 My mom's from Mexico.

00:27:18.000 Did he come here illegally too?

00:27:18.000 My dad's from Syria.

00:27:20.000 Not him.

00:27:20.000 Just my mom.

00:27:21.000 So when she came here, did she know she was breaking the law?

00:27:23.000 Did she know?

00:27:23.000 She probably not.

00:27:23.000 Yeah.

00:27:24.000 You might not like to hear it, but your mom's a criminal. 1.00

00:27:26.000 And every day she stayed here is no different than squatting. 0.98

00:27:30.000 You're squatting in America.

00:27:31.000 Again, your mom contributes a lot, right?

00:27:33.000 Then she can contribute back in Mexico. 1.00

00:27:35.000 She can go build a beautiful business and get a job. 0.99

00:27:38.000 You know, go to here. 1.00

00:27:39.000 The point is that she wasn't welcome here.

00:27:41.000 She wasn't invited.

00:27:42.000 She cut in line. 1.00

00:27:43.000 She took the place of other legal immigrants from across the world that have to wait decades to come into here. 0.99

00:27:47.000 Do you think we should get rid of the law that says you can't come into a country illegally?

00:27:51.000 Should we just get rid of that law?

00:27:53.000 Honest opinion?

00:27:54.000 Yeah.

00:27:54.000 I would say no.

00:27:55.000 No, we shouldn't get rid of it.

00:27:56.000 No.

00:27:57.000 Okay, I agree.

00:27:58.000 So then when should we enforce it?

00:27:59.000 I don't know.

00:28:01.000 You got him.

00:28:02.000 No, yes, it's important.

00:28:03.000 And I want to address this idea that I'm divisive.

00:28:06.000 I have a better way to now counter that.

00:28:08.000 I think we're being disruptive in a good way.

00:28:11.000 We're being ideological disruptive to the kind of just one-size-fits-all worldview that cascades over these university campuses.

00:28:20.000 I don't think we're dividing people.

00:28:22.000 I think that we're getting people to think differently about their viewpoints.

00:28:26.000 And that's such a threat because the left in its current form, they need totalitarian uniformity.

00:28:36.000 They can't have any dissension whatsoever.

00:28:38.000 Any dissension is a threat to them.

00:28:40.000 And these university campuses used to be places of free speech and open dialogue and agree to disagree.

00:28:46.000 And we've said for a while they have become islands of totalitarianism.

00:28:49.000 And again, I will say, though, the amount of support in the body politic is remarkable.

00:28:55.000 The more reasonable group is winning the debate.

00:28:58.000 And we see that in the New York Times realignment piece that you just went through.

00:29:02.000 And it's profound.

00:29:03.000 It has been years and years of work.

00:29:05.000 I don't know if that's going to manifest politically in November.

00:29:08.000 That's more honestly of a technical question.

00:29:10.000 Can we chase the ballots?

00:29:11.000 Can we get them?

00:29:12.000 Can we secure our elections?

00:29:13.000 But I can say this: the country is becoming more center-right.

00:29:18.000 That is a fact.

00:29:22.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:29:23.000 As you know, Mike Lindell has a passion to help you get the best sleep of your life.

00:30:25.000 Trump is leading Biden by 23% with those who say they didn't vote in 2020, and a third of those are new registrants.

00:30:32.000 What is Turning Point Action doing to get these people to vote?

00:30:37.000 This is the key to the saving the civilization.

00:30:39.000 So I want everyone to think about it.

00:30:40.000 In the highest voter turnout election year in American history was 2020.

00:30:45.000 Blake, you get the number.

00:30:46.000 I think it was 75 to 80% voter turnout just because of mass mail and voting and COVID and BLM.

00:30:52.000 It was a pressure cooker.

00:30:53.000 I think it was, I think it was 70s.

00:30:55.000 I could be wrong, but it was the highest ever in American history.

00:30:58.000 It was just out of control.

00:30:59.000 Maybe there was an election 100 years ago that was higher, but it was at least in the modern era, the highest.

00:31:04.000 And there are still millions of people who didn't vote in 2020.

00:31:08.000 And who are these people?

00:31:10.000 Well, Donald Trump is doing amazing with these individuals.

00:31:14.000 So we need to find them.

00:31:14.000 A lot of them are working class Hispanics.

00:31:18.000 Some of them are muscular class black Americans, patriots of all ages, all backgrounds, hunters, people that are gun owners, or first-time voters, people that might have been 19 or 20 and they might have said, ah, how do I vote?

00:31:31.000 Or what is this all about?

00:31:32.000 Or they were cynical at the time and they see that they can't own a home.

00:31:36.000 And so we need to find these low-propensity voters.

00:31:39.000 If we can find 50 to 60,000 of them and get them out to vote in Arizona, if we can find 40 or 50,000 of them in Wisconsin and get them out to vote, this could be the deciding factor.

00:31:50.000 This is where the Democrats have always overperformed the polling in the last couple of years, where we think, oh, you know, Carrie Lake is going to win.

00:31:57.000 Look at this. 0.99

00:31:58.000 You know, she's up seven points.

00:31:59.000 And I understand the election integrity, secure our elections.

00:32:02.000 That's a separate but very, very important topic.

00:32:04.000 I'm going to put that aside for a second.

00:32:06.000 They're able to overperform and blow up all the models because they find first-time voters that are not in the data and they're able to micro-target them on wedge issues, abortion, environment, trans issues.

00:32:17.000 But every data set now shows the Democrats have maximized their low-propensity voting pool.

00:32:24.000 They can expand it still a little bit on the edges, new college kids, you know, left-wing zealots.

00:32:29.000 We have not even begun to drill into the reservoir.

00:32:34.000 Here's the analogy I'll use.

00:32:35.000 It's like we just struck oil in the Permian basin and we have discovered horizontal fracking and drilling.

00:32:40.000 Like we're about to go through one of the greatest renaissances of low-propensity voters in Republican political history.

00:32:47.000 We haven't even thought of the idea that there might be people that didn't vote in 2020.

00:32:52.000 If you talk to the people at the RNC, the old regime that we were very focused on displacing and praise God, they're gone, they're under the impression that you just have to win over swing voters and independent voters and whose voting is voting and it is what it is.

00:33:04.000 No, the pie can get bigger.

00:33:06.000 There are new voters that want to join.

00:33:08.000 They're Joe Rogan listeners.

00:33:10.000 They might be really upset about the vaccine or they lost their job because of it or the lockdowns.

00:33:15.000 And we have to find them.

00:33:16.000 We have to register them to vote.

00:33:17.000 And that's what we're doing every single day at Turning Point Action.

00:33:20.000 Scott Pressler, to his great credit, he's doing that as well.

00:33:22.000 And he's going to be working with the RNC.

00:33:24.000 And so we're having hundreds of full-time people on our payroll at Turning Point Action, the largest ever effort to be deployed that's going to be just focused on this one little, you can call it a niche, but I don't think it's a niche.

00:33:35.000 I think a better way to say it is it's a decisive demographic of low propensity people that did not vote in 2020.

00:33:42.000 Couple quick questions for you.

00:33:43.000 But Charlie, you know, Republicans lead Democrats by five with voters who don't vote.

00:33:51.000 So that's why what we're doing at Turning Point Action is so important.

00:33:54.000 Charlie, a couple questions.

00:33:55.000 Do you have to be a young person to apply or to get a job?

00:34:00.000 Is it open to anybody?

00:34:02.000 No, all ages.

00:34:03.000 All ages.

00:34:04.000 Yeah.

00:34:05.000 And, you know, on top of, yeah, literally my day today, you know, last night was raising capital.

00:34:09.000 I'm doing a couple hours on campus this afternoon.

00:34:12.000 I have three Zoom calls, two conference calls trying to raise capital, onboarding, strategy calls with Tyler Boyer.

00:34:17.000 Then I speak for another two hours tonight.

00:34:19.000 Like our plate is full, everybody.

00:34:21.000 If you guys want to volunteer, get engaged, get involved, it's tpaction.com.

00:34:25.000 We're developing a mobile app that is being rolled out right now, the Turning Point Action app.

00:34:29.000 It's soon that we're going to really put the gas behind that and really kind of, you know, accelerate that into more hands.

00:34:36.000 We want to try to have hundreds of thousands of people use this mobile technology.

00:34:39.000 But the core basis of it is the full-time staff.

00:34:42.000 And so if you want to chase ballots, if you want to work for us, go to tpaction.com.

00:34:46.000 We're currently hiring.

00:34:47.000 We'd love to talk to you.

00:34:48.000 We'd love to meet with you.

00:34:49.000 You might be the right fit for us.

00:34:50.000 And it's exciting time.

00:34:52.000 And that final thing I'll say is that yes, we win by five points of people that don't vote.

00:34:56.000 But look, we also have to say this.

00:34:58.000 The election system is not as secure as we like it, but everyone needs to vote.

00:35:04.000 The way that we make sure the Democrats win is that we do not vote and we just say the elections are broken and rigged and terrible.

00:35:11.000 We need to vote and while simultaneously fixing our elections, getting rid of the people off the voter roll.

00:35:16.000 So glad I was able to call in, Andrew.

00:35:18.000 You're doing a great job.

00:35:19.000 We're super busy.

00:35:20.000 We're trying to move the dial.

00:35:21.000 We're seeing the evidence of it.
