00:00:31.000And 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.
00:01:04.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:11.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:08:21.000So this is Trump basically calling the fake news what it is.
00:08:25.000Fake 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.
00:08:40.000The United Auto Workers, but not their leadership, fully understand what I mean with the electric car mandate being pushed by Biden.
00:08:48.000There soon won't be any cars made in the USA unless I'm elected president.
00:08:52.000So, okay, this is a completely manufactured hoax.
00:08:55.000I completely agree with President Trump in that way.
00:09:02.000Folks, 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.
00:09:11.000That's why my friends at Hillsdale College have produced a free online course on this topic, American Citizenship and Its Decline.
00:09:18.000Taught 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.
00:09:31.000Americans 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.
00:09:40.000Hillsdale'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.
00:09:50.000So sign up today for Hillsdale's free online course, American Citizenship and Its Decline, by visiting charlieforhillsdale.com.
00:10:34.000Now, if Russia or China or any other country has those emails, I mean, to be honest with you, I'd love to see them.
00:10:41.000Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.
00:10:50.000I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.
00:10:55.000So 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.
00:11:05.000They 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.
00:11:14.000In 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.
00:11:31.000Trump 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.
00:11:49.000So Trump is plainly making ingest saying, hey, I'm sure you already have these.
00:11:54.000Why don't you leak these to the press?
00:11:56.000And then we can really have a story about it.
00:11:58.000The media had spent years moaning and groaning about that clip.
00:12:04.000It was the predicate for the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.
00:12:11.000In 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.
00:12:35.000Well, I'm sure some foreign actors did know what was on that server.
00:12:39.000And Trump was making that point clear as day where normal Americans could understand it.
00:12:43.000But you know who couldn't understand it?
00:12:47.000The brain-dead media that are so incentivized because they're all left-wingers, just about 90% of the media is left-wing.
00:12:55.000And 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.
00:13:10.000And when I say that the media is doubling down on this, I really mean they're doubling down on this.
00:13:46.000And 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.
00:14:08.000It 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.
00:14:17.000That's why he's facing 700 years in federal prison right now.
00:14:21.000Everything hinges on their ability to paint Donald Trump as an extreme MAGA dictator, fascist, whatever.
00:14:30.000And that is why we see all these different through lines, these threads connect to it.
00:14:35.000And now the bloodbath hoax is just the newest iteration in an age-old assault on Donald Trump because they cannot control him.
00:14:46.000Okay, Kirk fans, I need you to stop and pay attention to this.
00:14:50.000If 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.
00:15:00.000While back, I found a liquid supplement called Strong Cell, and it changed my health in a very profound way.
00:15:26.000After 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.
00:15:32.000I'm thankful that Charlie Kirk recommended this to his listeners.
00:15:35.000Rebecca says, I absolutely love Strong Cell.
00:15:39.000At 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.
00:15:44.000I've tried to find depression meds for 10 years.
00:15:46.000And since you Strong Cell, I'm feeling better than I ever have on depression medication.

00:17:58.000And people really don't have an idea, a proper understanding of how busy you actually are.
00:18:04.000I mean, you had that church event last night.
00:18:06.000And 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.
00:18:15.000But, you know, you have this campus event today.
00:18:17.000You're doing the tabling and the prove me wrong or, you know, the sorry, you know, change my mind.
00:18:29.000People don't have a vision for all of it.
00:18:31.000You know, you talk about a lot on this show about the Chase the Ballot, Chase the Vote initiative.
00:18:36.000You talk about our campus chapters, all of these things.
00:18:39.000But in its totality, you are literally a juggernaut.
00:18:42.000You'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.
00:18:54.000This 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.
00:20:37.000And then other people are able to judge who's the reasonable person.
00:20:40.000And 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.
00:20:50.000And the media doesn't ask for comment.
00:22:22.000And 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.
00:22:39.000And 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.
00:22:44.000We don't have those kind of tough conversations in the pursuit of truth.
00:22:47.000And instead, we kind of just go into our own, you know, created echo chambers and call each other names.
00:22:53.000And that's the opposite of what we're going to do today.
00:22:58.000I'm told there's a bunch of protesters and I'm sure there'll be a lot of fans and supporters too.
00:23:02.000And 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.
00:23:20.000And I think it connects to a lot of the news stories we're covering today.
00:23:23.000And 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.
00:23:33.000But I think the more we go into these hostile environments, the more especially we spread these videos on social media.
00:23:39.000You 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.
00:23:43.000I think it parlays beautifully into that New York Times article that I want to talk about, which is we are seeing a realignment.
00:23:49.000And I think part of it is, again, part of it is this mentality.
00:23:52.000And Matt Walsh deserves credit and Ben Shapiro and Candace Ellens when she speaks with us.
00:23:56.000I think that there's a group of us that have just been non-stop pressure campaign to go to places that disagree with us.
00:24:03.000And I think we're starting to see real penetration and movement.
00:24:06.000Andrew, can you talk about this realignment story?
00:24:14.000So 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.
00:24:30.000So for example, overall, all new registrants were 58% Democrat.
00:24:52.000But if you, you know, if they say if you're a conservative when you're young, you're heartless.
00:24:57.000If you're a liberal when you're older, you're brainless.
00:25:02.000So, 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.
00:25:13.000Now you look at 45 to 64, so that's kind of like your Gen Xers.
00:25:30.000When 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.
00:25:38.000You went to the hardest places to have speech as a conservative and you started forcefully pushing back, forcefully pushing back.
00:25:46.000And I think the conservative of conservatives of old prioritized being a gentleman and all these things, which are good virtues.
00:25:54.000But 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.
00:26:08.000And you were one of the first to do that.
00:26:10.000And you went into these campuses and you had the hard conversations.
00:26:14.000And now we're starting to see the fruit of it.
00:26:15.000And you're starting to see other people assume the same kind of posture.
00:26:22.000And 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.
00:26:35.000And 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.
00:31:14.000A lot of them are working class Hispanics.
00:31:18.000Some 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?
00:31:32.000Or they were cynical at the time and they see that they can't own a home.
00:31:36.000And so we need to find these low-propensity voters.
00:31:39.000If 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.
00:31:50.000This 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.
00:31:59.000And I understand the election integrity, secure our elections.
00:32:02.000That's a separate but very, very important topic.
00:32:04.000I'm going to put that aside for a second.
00:32:06.000They'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.
00:32:17.000But every data set now shows the Democrats have maximized their low-propensity voting pool.
00:32:24.000They can expand it still a little bit on the edges, new college kids, you know, left-wing zealots.
00:32:29.000We have not even begun to drill into the reservoir.
00:32:35.000It's like we just struck oil in the Permian basin and we have discovered horizontal fracking and drilling.
00:32:40.000Like we're about to go through one of the greatest renaissances of low-propensity voters in Republican political history.
00:32:47.000We haven't even thought of the idea that there might be people that didn't vote in 2020.
00:32:52.000If 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.
00:33:17.000And that's what we're doing every single day at Turning Point Action.
00:33:20.000Scott Pressler, to his great credit, he's doing that as well.
00:33:22.000And he's going to be working with the RNC.
00:33:24.000And 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.
00:33:35.000I think a better way to say it is it's a decisive demographic of low propensity people that did not vote in 2020.
