00:03:16.000I want to share some good news out of the must-win state of Georgia.
00:03:22.000Almost every day, I get asked questions: Charlie, are any of these states making changes to secure our elections?
00:03:29.000And my answer is typically not enough.
00:03:31.000However, I've been saying Georgia made some changes previously that were good, and this recent victory out of Georgia is terrific.
00:03:41.000Brian Kemp deserves some credit, not all the credit, because it's really the Patriots in the Georgia House and the Senate that pushed this forward.
00:03:48.000But to Brian Kemp's credit, he signed it.
00:03:51.000And the left and the Democrats are losing it.
00:03:57.000Brian Kemp just signed SB 189 into law, a new law, which is a voter integrity measure that will help clean up dirty voter rolls in the state.
00:04:11.000The law defines probable cause for removing voters from the rolls when their eligibility is challenged.
00:04:18.000The list of challenges includes death evidence of voting or registering in another jurisdiction, a tax exemption indicating a primary residence elsewhere, or a non-residential address.
00:04:31.000The new law even says the national change of address list can be considered to help clean the rolls.
00:04:38.000The Georgia bill allows voters to be removed from the rolls up until 40 days ahead of the election.
00:04:45.000The left is already slamming this new law as voter suppression.
00:04:49.000That's how you know this is a big win.
00:04:50.000Stacey Abrams and the whole group, they are so upset.
00:04:54.000They are worried because of this law, Georgia will no longer become a Democrat state.
00:05:12.000This is about ensuring that mass mail and ballots, a scheme designed by Democrats, isn't used and abused to stuff ballot boxes by activist groups with millions in Democrat dark money.
00:05:30.000Fair Fight Action, a voting rights group founded by Stacey Abrams, slammed the signing of SB 189, calling the measure a, quote, voter suppression bill that emboldens right-wing activists in their efforts to kick black and brown voters off the rolls.
00:05:47.000Quote, by signing SB 189, Stacey Abrams says, to become law, Brian Kemp delivered a gift to MAGA election deniers.
00:05:57.000Andrea Young, an executive director of the ACLU, Georgia, called the bill a step back for voters' rights and voting access.
00:06:06.000Now Republicans have come to the table and they have the ability to remove over 100,000 potentially fraudulent, illegal voters in the state of Georgia.
00:06:21.000Mark Elias is probably already readying a legal challenge.
00:06:25.000My guess is that this is written correctly and that this is going to further secure our elections in Georgia.
00:06:32.000This is not a comprehensive solution, but it is a step in the right direction.
00:06:37.000I am a vocal critic of Brian Kemp on lots of things, but he deserves credit where credit is due.
00:06:43.000Him signing this bill, not filibustering it or pocket vetoing it or vetoing it, is the right move.
00:08:36.000It's changed the lives of many Kirk listeners.

00:09:22.000So, Emma, help me understand there are multiple crises happening in the West.
00:09:29.000And Mike Johnson and Republicans decided to go and sprint bypassing the committing process, not even reading the bill to try and restrict people's First Amendment rights to quote unquote fight anti-Semitism.
00:09:59.000And keep in mind, I'm Jewish and I'm watching this, but these are the same people who obviously are talking about Antifada and they're talking about exterminating Jews in essence.
00:10:11.000And they're also the same people who are constantly talking about how white men are the biggest threat to like humankind.
00:10:21.000And they're also the same people who were, you know, at the George Floyd riots.
00:10:25.000They're the same people who were Occupy Wall Street.
00:10:29.000These are different age groups, but it's the same, it's the same ideology.
00:10:34.000And that ideology is an anti-American ideology.
00:10:36.000And it didn't just spring up out of thin air, right?
00:10:39.000It came from these tenured professors who have been sitting and stewing in this anti-American and anti-Western ideology for their entire lives, basically, and inculcating an entire generation and multiple generations with their toxic ideology.
00:10:56.000So today it's wrapped in a Palestinian flag, but it's been going on for 20, 30 years.
00:11:03.000It's gotten really bad in the last 10 years.
00:11:08.000And listen, you know, I wouldn't have a problem with Johnson kind of trying to, I guess, virtue signal or whatever, except that this is pressing.
00:11:22.000These people are entering society and Johnson has immediate capability in his power to do something about it.
00:12:01.000Because what is that doing to protect Jews?
00:12:03.000So you're like redefining anti-Semitism to have a more modern definition now where it's kind of like you're not really allowed to like criticize Israel.
00:12:12.000First of all, Israel is a state with a political leadership that obviously deserves criticism.
00:12:19.000In Israel, you're allowed to criticize Israel.
00:12:22.000And I don't really know what that's supposed to do.
00:12:23.000Like I said, if you're interested in combating anti-Semitism, who are the worst anti-Semites, the people who are coming out of these schools, which Mike Johnson's funding.
00:12:35.000Like, I'm all for combating anti-Semitism, but I'm equally for combating anti-Americanism and racism that's now more and more geared toward white people.
00:13:09.000Honestly, I don't think it's that deep.
00:13:11.000What I think it is, is you're looking at a group of people who absolutely refuse to seriously confront problems, think deeply about them, and find pragmatic and thoughtful solutions that require political will to implement.
00:13:27.000I don't think that it's actually that nefarious.
00:13:30.000And I don't think it's that complicated.
00:13:31.000I think you're looking at people who do not want to solve any problems.
00:13:36.000Listen, I was on Fox last night and right before my hit on Jesse Waters' show, it was Lindsey Graham was on before me and Waters asked him kind of like, you know, a very broad question, kind of like, what do we do about all of this, all of this rioting and what these people are talking about?
00:13:54.000And Lindsey Graham goes, you know, when Trump's in office, we're going to have the DOJ investigate.
00:14:00.000He's going to have the DOJ investigate these things and, you know, civil rights.
00:14:07.000Is it not obvious when people are talking about intifada and they're pulling down the American flag, burning it and raising a foreign flag that we clearly have a problem in these institutions?
00:14:17.000I don't think it needs an investigation.
00:14:25.000I just, I'm, I guess we don't know, but who someone's obviously lobbying for this.
00:14:30.000Someone is pushing for it and someone thinks it's a good idea.
00:14:33.000And now the Senate is going to take it up, which is one of the most restrictive bills that we've seen in quite some time against the First Amendment and free speech.
00:14:45.000You don't obviously, obviously, we know that you don't fix a problem by rendering it illegal to talk about or more difficult to talk about or more restrictive to talk about or stigmatizing speech around it in any way whatsoever.
00:14:58.000If anything, actually, that creates a festering problem, you know, because what are we talking about right now?
00:15:05.000It's who's lobbying to make it illegal to talk about Jews.
00:15:08.000Not to say, I don't blame you for wondering that.
00:15:28.000I just, I don't, they say it's like moderate Republicans from New York, but we have so many issues happening in our country right now that are way bigger than, you know, people spewing hatred on campus.
00:15:47.000I want to know who was the actual lobbyist pushing for this and why Mike Johnson was so scared that he had to bypass committee process, not allow 72 hours to read the bill.
00:15:57.000And it's even worse than that, Emma Joe, is that Eli Crane and some wonderful members in the U.S. House met with Speaker Johnson privately before the bill hit the floor and like, hey, can you change part of this bill because this might outlaw parts of the Bible and it's like not good.
00:16:20.000The whole thing is very slimy, but I'm just looking at it kind of in a series of virtue signals.
00:16:26.000You know, the first was making this like pilgrimage to Columbia where he goes and stands in front of this like Hamas encampment with like Jewish children, Jewish students behind him as these kind of props in a photo op.
00:16:41.000Well, by the way, the people inside the encampers are like heckling the guy and like saying that he should go back to Louisiana, you know.
00:19:56.000Obviously, you know, you're looking at a young generation right now who has credit card debt at 25% APR.
00:20:04.000They have no prospects of ever buying a house.
00:20:08.000They've been told that the only way to pay down debt and buy a house would be to pursue higher education, which has buried them in even more debt and they still don't get the house.
00:20:17.000Fertility rates are through the floor.
00:20:42.000You know, the way that I see these protests, as I said in the last segment, I linked this protest with the George Floyd riots and I linked the George Floyd riots with Occupy Wall Street because it all has the same vibe.
00:20:54.000And the vibe is like this general like rage at the futility of life.
00:21:49.000Did they ever for one moment observe why it could be that somebody like Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, for that matter, could be so popular?
00:21:58.000Yeah, but they take younger people for granted.
00:22:03.000And so they think that all they care about is Gaza and transing.
00:22:15.000Trump needs to figure out, and listen, this is about my pay grade.
00:22:18.000If I knew I'd be running for president myself, but Trump needs to find a way to make it possible to get married and buy a house, get married and buy a house and have kids.
00:22:29.000You know, and Hungary has very interesting ideas about this.
00:22:32.000And Poland has very interesting ideas about this.
00:22:35.000He needs to look at countries that are figuring it out and figure out a way to bump up that fertility rate and bump up that marriage rate and homeownership rate.
00:22:42.000Because if he's able to do that, and I don't know if it's just through normal economic stimulus or if it's through finding a way to figure something out with student debt or whether I don't know what it is, tax breaks, I don't know what it is, but he needs to find a way to give people a reason to be proud to be American.
00:22:59.000And obviously, you know, I say that kind of flippantly, but for a lot of these kids, they don't see the American dream in their, in, in their fate.
00:23:10.000And, you know, you and I have faith in this country and we know that this is the best place on earth to live.
00:23:16.000And not only today, but throughout all of human history.
00:23:20.000But for people who don't necessarily really know that as well as we do and are just looking at the prospects for their life, they're like, what's like, what is this American dream that everybody is talking about?
00:24:43.000Very important guest here to talk about the protests and if we can go after them from a RICO approach.
00:24:49.000Joining us is Andrew D. Trchaski, a lawyer, former federal prosecutor, and also author of a new book, very important book called Woke Warriors, How the Left is Destroying America's Ability to Fight and Win Its Wars.
00:25:07.000Andrew, I caught one clip of you on cable television breaking down how we potentially could put forward a RICO case against all of this activity.
00:25:19.000Well, any sort of organized crime where the idea of a general group of people is to fund, plan, and execute on a plan to essentially commit crimes and to do it in an interstate fashion, you can put that into the category of RICO.
00:25:35.000There's also a wide array of other types of criminal statutes that can be applied and were certainly applied in the January 6th prosecutions of over 700 people.
00:25:47.000So there are ways to differentiate between the individuals' First Amendment rights in our country to both speak and to assemble from the idea that people who have a message think that they can violate the law.
00:26:31.000So what is necessary to launch one of these investigations?
00:26:35.000And who exactly are the ones that are financing this?
00:26:38.000Well, I'll tell you first the ones that I'm most afraid of doing the investigation, and that's the heavily left, heavily Democratic DAs that have essentially been Soros-funded DA campaigns throughout this country.
00:26:52.000I think that they let down the country in a lack of prosecutions during the BLM riots that took place in the summer of 2020.
00:26:58.000So who are the appropriate investigators and those who I think should be looking into this?
00:27:03.000Well, I have concerns with the Department of Justice heading it up just from a U.S. attorney perspective.
00:27:10.000I think that the best would be a special counsel.
00:27:13.000We have these protests, which include criminal activity occurring across the country.
00:27:19.000And I think that there's interstate discussions that are going on, and I think that that can turn it into a federal offense.
00:27:26.000I do think that it is, you have to be cautious saying that it's the Department of Justice or special counsel for the Department of Justice who should run these, because many of the crimes that we're talking about would most likely be local crimes.
00:27:39.000And so there has to be deep coordination with local agencies.
00:27:42.000But I want to see investigations into the big money behind this, the plans that occurred beforehand, and the discussions that these protests would include criminal activities.
00:27:52.000Do you believe we have enough reasonable cause to launch such an investigation?
00:27:56.000And could that lead us all the way up to the financiers and the foundations?
00:28:01.000For example, if a foundation was pitched by an NGO and they said something of, give us money, we want to disrupt on college campuses and make good trouble, could we potentially loop in the financing source here?
00:28:15.000And I think that's actually the type of target that a federal investigation should look into, because that's where they most likely have jurisdiction, where there's wiring of money, where there's actual money crossing state lines.
00:28:29.000That's where you have the best connection to federal investigations.
00:28:32.000And I think that the big money is exactly where the focus should be for purposes of federal investigations.
00:28:38.000I think that there's all sorts of those sources out there.
00:28:43.000I think you can see it just with your own plain eyes.
00:28:45.000The fact that these tents all look the same from one protest to the next, the fact that they're all organized in a very similar fashion.
00:28:52.000I think the very plan to simply move in on a college campus and set up one of these little Gazas is the type of criminal enterprise that is all you need in order to launch an investigation.
00:29:05.000I'm not saying there's enough for indictments or arrests at this time, but for purposes of an investigation, undoubtedly.
00:29:11.000Yeah, and so I guess the question is: why is this not yet been done?
00:29:17.000It seems as if that there is no lack of gusto to go after if like four proud boys meet for coffee and joke about doing something regarding a Democrat leader, right?
00:29:31.000Or the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping case, where it was really the Fed case, where it was more feds than actual, you know, people that wanted to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer.
00:29:40.000We have seen the continuation of brute force for January 6th protesters that peacefully protested, and they keep on going after people that didn't even enter the Capitol that were hundreds of feet outside of the Capitol, charging them with the most aggressive federal crimes.
00:29:55.000Why is it that we can't get a single person interested to use prosecutorial investigatory powers to get to the bottom of this?
00:30:06.000I mean, that's the only explanation because we see the political left go pretty wild on what they call radical conservatism or radical right-wing individuals.
00:30:17.000And there certainly have been incidences over the years that have called for appropriate investigations.
00:30:23.000But we see pouring an unbelievable amount of time, resources, and money into extremist investigations post-January 6th to include the, like I said, over 700 prosecutions.
00:30:34.000We've seen so many millions of dollars poured into the Department of Defense for stand down days and complex investigations trying to root out right-wing extremists, as they refer to them within the military.
00:30:46.000There just seems to be no attention or care to those that act up in the same fashion on the left.
00:30:52.000I think that they try to differentiate on some sort of ground of moral equivalence that they don't see that.
00:30:59.000But I think these Gaza protests have exposed it to the max.
00:31:03.000This is no longer about civil unrest or civil rights complaints within our country, many of which have legitimate error to be grieved in, I guess, in public forum from time to time and person to person.
00:31:15.000I'm not here to make judgments about people's positions.
00:31:17.000I'm here to say that those who act in an extreme and illegal fashion on the left or the right, if they're falsifying their exercise of a First Amendment right in order to instead violate the law, those are people who have to be rooted out.
00:31:32.000And we have to make sure that we are proceeding in an organized and law-abiding fashion, even when we're executing on our First Amendment rights.
00:31:41.000I'm very sympathetic with all of this, and I think it's time for us at the very least to start investigating.
00:32:05.000I mean, I think that it would get violent very quickly.
00:32:07.000I think that we would see something that the universities would go bananas over.
00:32:12.000I mean, you see this when you go onto college campuses and you're confronted with so much pushback from the actual campuses themselves and the administrators that don't want you around.
00:32:24.000And that's the real troubling part of all of this is that we're dealing with First Amendment through the lens of viewpoint criticism.
00:32:32.000And that's not the way that it should be handled.
00:32:34.000If you go onto a college campus and you want to exercise your First Amendment rights, well, there are time, place, manner restrictions that have to be respected.
00:32:45.000Same thing with the streets, whether it's New York City, whether it's Los Angeles, or whether it's in Dallas, Texas, or Austin, Texas.
00:32:52.000Wherever you are in the country, there are ways in which you can employ your First Amendment rights to assemble and speak without violating the law.
00:33:12.000We were judge advocates in the Air Force, and we continue to represent military members and their families on a whole wide variety of individual needs in the military.
00:33:21.000So we thought that this would be a great opportunity for us to give our perspective, both on the legal front as well as our working with service members every day like we do to show just how extreme and woke the United States military has become.
00:33:35.000The issue of wokeness is not just one for college campuses anymore.
00:33:38.000It is deeply ingrained in the United States military.
00:33:42.000We walked through the whole history of it starting in the Clinton administration and then a huge boom in the Obama administration.
00:33:49.000And now we've virtually created a crisis for the military.
00:33:53.000In the Biden administration, we've got recruiting crises.
00:33:56.000We've got an overall reduction of strength in our forces, both in their mind and their might.
00:34:03.000We're also bleeding money, billions and billions of dollars spent on things like global warming and medical expenses for transgender surgeries and the tolerance for our military, having folks on the rolls at all because of mental health issues or other sensitivities that we've decided to give our attention to instead of being focused on fighting and winning our nation's wars.
00:34:28.000So I think that it is a very complete book on so many of the woke issues and how it has gone so deep into the military.
00:34:36.000People have to see this before they vote in the 2024 election.
00:34:39.000Can you give us some of the more egregious examples of how the military has been captured by the woke?
00:34:46.000Well, I think that what I deal with most is I see unnecessary prosecutions of people from everything from criticism about how they're speaking to sexual harassment and sexual assault cases that should have never been brought.
00:34:58.000And I think that the money that we're spending on these policies to have more service members who are just incapable of actually performing their duties.
00:35:06.000And instead, we're just putting our money and resources into folks that are more interested in their social identity.
