00:00:08.000We've got Viva Fry, who's telling us the new numbers that will absolutely shock you: the amount of people receiving government-enforced euthanasia up in Canada.
00:00:44.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:14.000Charlie is on assignment for a couple of days.
00:01:18.000So I've been tagged in to cover live from Washington, D.C., everything that's going on here in town and everything that's going on around the world.
00:01:26.000And we've got a lot going on in both from car bombs and assassinations in Moscow, an escalation in Ukraine.
00:01:54.000Well, according to Bidenomics, depending on who you talk, if you listen to the White House, if you listen to Brian Dees, and I watched some of him on the Sunday shows yesterday going on with, you know, I listened to Chuck Todd talking about this, and they were saying, oh, things are doing great.
00:02:08.000Well, you know, gas prices are actually down from where they were.
00:02:11.000And so we're doing so much better than we were in the worst of this.
00:02:15.000And really, you have no one to thank but Joe Biden.
00:02:20.000Of course, here's the problem with that.
00:02:21.000If you actually go and Cycle Capital is out with a new survey, 97% of business executives in the country say the United States is currently in a recession, not going to be currently.
00:03:22.000We're also going to have Mike Davis on Net Ryan.
00:03:25.000We're going to be going through your emails again, freedom at charliekirk.com, because we need to understand where our country is in this moment.
00:03:39.000Massive, by the way, events with turning point action that were just held last week across the country.
00:03:46.000Battleground states, Ron DeSantis, Kerry Lake, Blake Masters, Doug Mastriano, and of course, JD Vance in Ohio.
00:03:55.000Turning point action, taking the ball, leading that.
00:03:57.000You had Charlie Kirk speaking out there, Tyler Boyer, Benny Johnson.
00:04:01.000And of course, we're going to have Tyler Boyer coming up here in the second hour because I want to get an understanding of not only what really the importance of those rallies was, but also an understanding of where we are right now.
00:04:15.000Because a lot of people are saying, oh, Posto, it's in the bag.
00:04:21.000Should we just assume that a red wave is going to come and everything is going to be fine?
00:04:25.000And we don't kick back our heels and see what's on Netflix, swipe the phone, check out TikTok, check out those Instagram reels, or should we actually buckle down and do the work?
00:04:36.000Because if Charlie were here, I think he would tell you: number one, make sure you send your email to freedomcharliekirk.com, but then do the work.
00:04:45.000Do not be complacent because we're starting to see some things in these numbers that are kicking the other way, picking against a red wave.
00:05:19.000I can't even, I can't even, I lost track when I hit a dozen cancellations.
00:05:24.000I got my first, I got a free ice cream phone, which was great, but then I just stopped tracking it after that time, after being canceled that many times.
00:05:33.000So, Dr. James Blindsy and myself, the most canceled men in podcasts, maybe not the most canceled, but we did a Sunday special on the G word.
00:05:42.000You got to say the G word because you can't talk about it anymore.
00:05:45.000You're not allowed to actually talk about what that G word is.
00:06:02.000Yeah, we did a whole segment, a whole special on groomers.
00:06:05.000And why is it that when you use these linguistics, these linguistic pieces, when you actually go in and you name something and use the correct, accurate name for it, that it drives the left nuts and they go so crazy, they have to ban you for actually using it.
00:06:23.000Not because, by the way, you're using it incorrectly, but the opposite, because you are using it correctly.
00:06:29.000You're going through the exact reason that this was used.
00:06:33.000But I do want to get into some of these poll numbers.
00:06:35.000And Rasp Newsen has it up today for us.
00:06:38.000And folks, look, I'm just going to be honest.
00:06:40.000Number one, okay, number one, it states that inflation and crime are still the biggest issues for Americans.
00:06:48.000But at the same time, believe it or not, Biden's poll numbers, his approval numbers, are starting to go up.
00:06:54.000And Raspan has them today in their daily cracking.
00:07:16.000One of the big ones, and producer Andrew had a good point about this earlier, was that the bill that Biden passed over the weekend or, you know, passed, he was on vacation, right?
00:07:26.000Because you can't put him in front of a camera.
00:07:27.000I'm not even actually sure who it was that passed the bill.
00:07:31.000You know, Biden nominally signed off on it.
00:07:33.000I'm sure he hasn't read a single page of it.
00:07:35.000And I'm sure if you actually sat him down and asked him, he couldn't explain to you a single provision that's in the bill.
00:07:40.000But they called it the Inflation Reduction Act.
00:07:42.000I call it the Inflation Corruption Act.
00:07:44.000We talked also that who was it lobbying behind the scenes for this thing?
00:08:10.000You guys got to understand that to them, the green movement is every all of their politics start and end with climate change and the green movement.
00:08:18.000Now, this doesn't mean, by the way, that they actually like to spend time living in nature, that they actually want to go out and have a good time.
00:08:44.000You don't see people on the left that are tied into and just completely dug in to this movement of climate change extremism, where they become completely addicts to it.
00:08:56.000It's almost like a cult marketing kind of technique, where they're dug in and they believe that actually and literally, because they don't, I mean, keep in mind, a lot of these people are self-professed atheists.
00:09:07.000They refuse to believe in God, but they realize that there must be something.
00:09:24.000They fill it with this idea that, oh, it's the planet and we have to do this.
00:09:28.000And for some reason, government spending and taxes and cap and trade schemes and corporate handouts to green tech billionaires like Elon Musk, that's going to be the way that we save the planet.
00:09:39.000And it makes them feel like they check the box.
00:09:40.000And then they go back to living in their giant mega cities and they're having their gig slaves come up and deliver them food and deliver them their Starbucks and everything else because that's where they like to live is in the mega cities.
00:09:55.000I didn't even pull up his tweet for this, but it occurs to me, he was saying, I kid you not.
00:09:59.000I had to either read this thread like three times to make sure that this guy was actually being serious, but he was a leftist and he was making the argument for cities.
00:10:07.000And he said, what about people who live in rural areas?
00:10:18.000He said, people shouldn't live in rural areas, that there's no reason to live in them because we have modern technology in modern cities.
00:10:26.000So why would you even want to live in rural areas if you could go and live in these mega cities where everything's prepared for you, where everything's done for you?
00:10:36.000You know, we were out in Davos where, of course, Klaus Schwab sent his goon squad after me.
00:10:40.000So Klaus Schwab sent the goon squad after me.
00:10:42.000Right before that, we went to the metaverse, it's like exhibit.
00:10:46.000My wife, Tanya Tay, goes over and she says, Hey, let me, I want to check out the metaverse thing because, of course, we, you know, we want to check it out.
00:10:52.000We want to see what's going on, do some reporting.
00:10:56.000And before they give it to her, she said, What's this?
00:10:58.000She said, Well, it's going to take you to like a jungle.
00:11:00.000And you go in this jungle and she said, Okay, fine, I'll check it out.
00:11:05.000But then there was something that this employee said to her and said, Oh, the promoter, and she was saying, Well, the thing that's nice about it is that you won't have to take kids to the zoo anymore.
00:11:19.000And Tanya looked at her and goes, So, you want my kids to strap a screen to their eyeballs and be sitting down in their room rather than going out into the real world, into actual nature, and seeing real animals with their own two eyes.
00:11:54.000Millions of Americans are waking up to a country that they don't recognize.
00:11:58.000And while they struggle to raise their families and pay the bills, the media and corporations are telling them what's wrong with the country.
00:12:04.000Thankfully, there are still some companies that believe in America and our beautiful Constitution.
00:12:10.000Patriot Mobile, great people, are America's only Christian conservative cell phone company.
00:12:14.000They're on the front lines fighting for sanctity of life, religious liberty, and the Second Amendment.
00:12:19.000This is why Patriot Mobile is different from every other provider out there.
00:12:22.000Inflation has made it really hard on many Americans.
00:12:25.000Thankfully, Patriot Mobile has plans for almost any budget, and they offer the same nationwide coverage as the major carriers.

00:13:01.000I want to explain something that is also bleak for Republicans, and it's not a Black Sabbath, but what it is, is this Bloomberg headline.
00:13:10.000And it says, Democrats sense new optimism for blunting GOP's midterm gains.
00:13:18.000Republicans need to start stepping up and understanding that the ground is shifting underneath them.
00:13:24.000And there's been a few things sort of accounting for this.
00:13:30.000Well, part of this, according to Bloomberg, and I think this is true, I think that abortion is going to be the singular issue that Democrats absolutely use to drive a wedge between conservatives and then moderate Republicans and moderates and independents in general.
00:13:45.000They are going to try to go into those suburban women, the soccer moms, the ones that are triple vax, and say to them, hey, these Republicans are going to try to make abortion completely illegal in all cases, and they're going to criminalize it and they're going to put you in jail if you even talk about abortion.
00:14:00.000And that is something that for a lot of these states, you still have people in a lot of these affluent suburban areas where that has become a swing issue.
00:14:11.000Even people that might nominally be a Republican, this is still a swing issue for a lot of folks.
00:14:17.000And that's something the conservatives are going to have to counter.
00:14:20.000That's something we're going to have to go and say, look, we are going to fight back on crime and we are going to fight back on inflation.
00:14:27.000And it's a new form of economics that I think they're actually pushing on us.
00:14:31.000It's a new form of, I don't know if it's Stockholm syndrome or Bidenomics or whatever you want to call it, but it's actually crazy because we saw this with the job creation numbers, right?
00:14:43.000And in the job creation numbers, what they said was, oh, look at all the jobs that Joe Biden is creating.
00:14:48.000Joe Biden is starting all these jobs up and he's putting all these jobs in.
00:14:53.000And people looked at it and they said, well, hold on a second.
00:14:58.000The numbers are up because the jobs are gone because of lockdown, because of lockdowns in blue states with blue governors and blue cities with blue mayors.
00:15:07.000That's why everybody lost their jobs because you shut down their businesses over COVID.
00:15:12.000You shut down this thing and then you kick people out of their jobs because of mandates.
00:15:17.000Then the jobs start coming back and you're going to call that economic recovery and job creation?
00:15:42.000Joe Biden drops prices by 13%, then take credit.
00:15:48.000Now, the meme is funny and it's great and they've got it up there, but I want to actually drive this home because understand, this is how Stockholm syndrome works.
00:15:58.000People can become used to, quote unquote, a new normal.
00:16:04.000People, when you've got your finger in a pain box, like you're in Dune, and they ratchet the pain all the way up and then they dial it down one or two notches, people will psychologically start saying, well, this isn't as bad.
00:16:17.000This isn't as bad as it used to be, even though it's better than the baseline.
00:16:23.000Look, we talk about current events a lot on this show, but there's other things that are in life that are bigger than current events, bigger things.
00:16:29.000We try to do some shows every so often on these things.
00:16:32.000But look, what am I talking about when I say that?
00:16:35.000Right and wrong, prayer and the Bible or heaven and hell.
00:16:38.000So look, the great C.S. Lewis, who's one of the most amazing minds ever to exist, who's a master at addressing these questions.
00:16:47.000And that is why Hillsdale College, the great college, the only college, in my opinion, wants you to learn more about him and his writings and their newest free online course, C.S. Lewis on Christianity.
00:16:59.000And it all starts with taking a short quiz to find out how much you already know about Lewis.
00:17:05.000He wrote more than the Narnia series, by the way.
00:19:23.000But I believe I wanted to bring on our next guest.
00:19:26.000I wanted to see if we can go to Canada of all places and get the great Viva Fry on, because there's a story he's been talking about up in Canada.
00:19:34.000I think it's going to be very interesting to the Charlie Kirk audience.
00:19:44.000So, you were tweeting about something over the weekend, and I started going down the rabbit hole on this because I didn't even realize with all the craziness that's going on here in the United States, all the craziness that's going on overseas.
00:19:57.000I didn't realize this headline until I saw it on your Twitter feed.
00:20:01.000And you've really been exposing the story, the fact that the rates of euthanasia and the government essentially supported euthanasia practice has gone up skyrocketing in Canada over the last year.
00:20:22.000Jack, it's the type of thing that I first saw it because I started discussing it with my brother.
00:20:28.000He started getting a little more involved in what's going on in Canada.
00:20:33.000And we're like, We can't believe the number.
00:20:36.000It doesn't make sense because the number is so extraordinary.
00:20:41.000It's so mind-boggling, not just in terms of a raw statistic, in terms of what it represents for overall death in Canada.
00:20:49.000So, for those watching who may not know, Canada recently amended the criminal code following it was a decision of the Supreme Court pertaining to legally assisted suicide.
00:20:59.000And they said provisions prohibiting it in the criminal code, unconstitutional.
00:21:49.000Compare it to California, which I don't know if they have quite as extensive medical assisted suicide law, but California is like in the hundreds.
00:22:01.000That represents 3.2% of all death in Canada in 2021.
00:22:06.000There were some 300 and some odd thousand deaths in Canada, 3.2% administered by the state, because it's a progressive government that wants to make death so easily accessible, we can have a number that should shock the conscience of anybody and everybody out there.
00:22:22.000Now, Viva, when I'm looking at these numbers, because when I read the article, and Forbes has the article up, and the headline on Forbes is pretty provocative.
00:22:33.000And it says here: Canada's new euthanasia laws carry upsetting Nazi-era echoes, warns expert.
00:22:40.000He goes, It continues, Canada's extremely liberal euthanasia laws, which next people are set to include to be extended.
00:22:46.000They're extending these laws next year to ensure suffering with mental health conditions, potentially minors, and reminiscent of the way that the Nazis dealt with people with disabilities.
00:23:05.000They said to not offer this medically assisted death to the mentally unwell would be discriminatory.
00:23:13.000Not offering euthanasia, government-sanctioned euthanasia to people who are mentally unwell, mentally ill, in theory, legally, therefore incapable of consenting, because oftentimes if you don't have the mental wherewithal to consent to something, it would vitiate consent.
00:23:30.000They want to extend government-sanctioned imposed euthanasia onto the mentally unwill.
00:23:37.000It's people thinking actually about eugenics as a whole and how the Nazis started off by killing the handicapped, the mentally ill.
00:23:45.000And I have no doubt, you know, it's a bizarre thing.
00:23:49.000I have no doubt, or let me phrase, I never could have thought that at the time they must have justified it as some sort of benevolent, we're sparing them further suffering.
00:23:59.000Canada now, I'm not going to make the comparison, but other people are, is going full eugenics, full World War II, you know, prior to, offering death as opposed to health care.
00:24:21.000It's cheaper to kill than it is to maim in Canada as a legal concept.
00:24:24.000They say if you're going to hit someone with your car, it's cheaper to kill them than it is to injure them.
00:24:30.000When it comes to healthcare, it's cheaper to kill a patient than it is to treat them.
00:24:35.000And there was a study, I think it was in the NCBI, a reputable publication saying the euthanasia program, medically assisted deaths in Canada, it's not expected to increase the cost of Medicare or healthcare, the system.
00:24:51.000The government that stands to financially benefit from putting down a human is the one that rubber stamps the application from distressed, unhappy, unwell individuals.
00:25:02.000And instead of working on health care, which might cost them a little more and which they might not be able to do because of the crippled, unviable healthcare system in Canada, well, now it's just cheaper and more effective to grant them euthanasia in record numbers, 10,064 Canadians.
00:25:23.000They shredded the Constitution and the Charter of Rights for 40,000 COVID deaths over two and a half years while simultaneously euthanizing 10,000 Canadians in one year.
00:25:34.000You know, and this, Viva, there are so many people out there that say there is this depopulation agenda.
00:25:40.000We keep hearing this word over and over, depopulation.
00:25:43.000The target is, you know, only 500 or 500 million or something.
00:25:49.000It shocks you when you hear these kind of statements.
00:25:52.000But then when you see policies like this, it really makes you pause and ask yourself, what does this really represent?
00:26:00.000Because, I mean, they're even talking about expanding this thing to minors.
00:26:17.000You're putting the pressure cooker of, in many cases, the public schools, public high schools that are going crazy.
00:26:22.000So you're ranking and stacking everybody all the time, or you're best in class, you're prettiest in class, you're the smartest, you're fast, polystyletic, et cetera, at the same time when all your hormones are hitting you at once.
00:26:39.000So at the same time that they're pushing this, the agenda of allowing minors, and you can educate me on this, but I know throughout the United States, we're seeing this in school after school and state after state where they're allowing gender reassignment surgery and treatments to be done to minors that they're also going to have the off-ramp of allowing for suicide at the same time.
00:27:02.000And I guarantee you that when you see this in Canada, you're going to see blue governors and blue mayors do it, try to push this here in the United States.
00:28:12.000But the ultimate kick in the groin in all of this is they devastate a population, the government through policy, destroy, alienate people, cause distress.
00:28:24.000And then, lo and behold, we're going to rubber stamp, seemingly, the ultimate procedure.
00:28:31.000You know, it's representative of Justin Trudeau's liberal government because it's the most illiberal, illiberal, fascistic, and people are making the comparison to horrendous periods of time where other fascistic tyrants did similar things.
00:28:46.000Presumably, they cloaked it under the same benevolence that Justin Trudeau is going to cloak this atrocity as.
00:28:51.000This is one of the most horrific segments to myself as a pro-lifer, as a Catholic, as someone who believes in not only the sanctity of life, but when I look at human beings, I believe that every human has potential, that every life has a meaning.
00:29:07.000Even if we don't understand directly in that specific moment, that every life leaves ripples on us as a people.
00:29:43.000But I think there's also something that has a social aspect because when a child has fallen down a well, or when there's minors trapped at the bottom of that mine, we will move heaven and earth to save them.
00:29:59.000Because we believe that life is precious and society will come together to save whether it's one life, whether it's 12 minors, whether it's the 13, the cave-in in Thailand, right?
00:30:10.000There's a huge movie about it out right now.
00:30:13.000That is the kind of society that we want.
00:30:16.000But then when I see things like this, I worry.
00:30:19.000And when you see the numbers, 3.2% of all deaths in Canada.
00:30:24.000What does that actually do to your society when you allow programs like that and cynicism and nihilism to become codified in the government's ethos?
00:30:33.000Doesn't that change the ethos of a country?
00:30:37.000I think the issue is that most people in Canada have up until now been totally unaware of this.
00:30:42.000I mean, I consider myself to be informed.
00:30:45.000I was flabbergasted to the point where I thought I was misunderstanding something.
00:30:49.000And my goodness, if I'm misunderstanding something, government of Canada, let me know.
00:30:54.000But what does it, it does a number of things.
00:30:56.000I think people are going to discover this.
00:30:58.000They're going to be outraged, potentially, or not.
00:31:02.000Or it's going to be this social hypocrisy coming from a government that says we've got to lock down an entire country because you want granny to die while literally euthanizing 10,000 grannies, oh, but because they asked for it.
00:31:15.000And we didn't try to work around providing proper care, making sure that they are comfortable.
00:31:28.000And as though it's progressive somehow, it's progressive to expand this procedure, not to make sure, like was supposed to be the case with abortion, safe, legal, but rare, as it should be euthanasia, but when it's safe, legal, and we're just going to give it to everybody and anybody now.
00:31:44.000And it's the government that has a vested financial interest in approving it, rubber stamping on the approval.
00:32:24.000So kudos to you for really blowing the whistle on this and trying to turn back the tide and raise awareness, raise the red flag when it needs to be raised.
00:32:32.000Where can people go to follow you to gain access to your work?
00:32:35.000So YouTube Rumble Viva Fry on a platform called Locals, VivaBarnesLaw.locals.com, where we do amazing work with Robert Barnes.
00:32:44.000And on Twitter, a little sassier Viva Fry, it's at VivaFry.
00:32:48.000And that's where I've been, I mean, I'm raising the flag for this.
00:32:51.000I'm going to continue looking into it.
00:32:52.000And if the situation is actually worse than what I even understand it to be as of now, I'll be raising that flag, ringing that bell double hard.
