00:00:46.000His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:00:54.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:17.000This man should be the leader of the Republicans in the Senate.
00:01:21.000I sure hope that happens sometime soon.
00:01:22.000I'm going to do everything I possibly can to make it so.
00:01:25.000Senator Rick Scott, who is a businessman entrepreneur, and was an excellent governor of Florida, and I think we need to remind people of that and is doing a great job as a senator.
00:01:34.000Senator Rick Scott, welcome back to the program.
00:01:36.000Charlie, it's always great to be with you.
00:02:06.000It has nothing to stop inflation, does nothing to help people get comfortable that retirement benefits are going to be there or that we're going to get medical bills down.
00:02:15.000We have forgotten who we represent up here.
00:02:18.000So, Senator, the Senate has, in my opinion, been kind of MIA in this whole thing.
00:02:25.000It's been framed as McCarthy v. Biden, McCarthy v. Biden.
00:02:30.000When there's an upper chamber here and it takes 60 votes to pass, have you personally been a little frustrated about the absence of Senate, let's just say, voice?
00:02:42.000Was that an intentional thing by Leader McConnell?
00:03:06.000It's not helping Americans get their life back in order.
00:03:10.000So I think we have to be vocal about, one, we should support the House when they're doing something logical.
00:03:16.000We should do everything we can to make things better when we can.
00:03:20.000But we have a voice and it takes 60 of our votes.
00:03:23.000It'll take nine Republicans to pass this.
00:03:26.000So just playing this out and gaming this out, do you anticipate Republicans and Democrats coming together to get 60 votes?
00:03:34.000I mean, if 41 Republicans were in agreement, this could potentially have some issues.
00:03:41.000Well, you would hope, but let's remember, two years ago, Mitch McCollum came to Republican lunch and said, hey, it takes 10 of us to help the Democrats vote for a debt ceiling increase.
00:05:55.000So one of the contentions right now, and again, we've had people all across the board, and I have to tell you, Senator, it's unclear, is work requirements.
00:06:04.000Are we getting work requirements in this bill?
00:06:07.000Or are we not getting work requirements in this bill?
00:06:09.000And Senator, why is it that we have to write these things in a way where I can't get a solid answer?
00:06:14.000I've been asking, I get totally different answers.
00:06:23.000What we should be doing is if you're able-bodied, okay, and I have a bill.
00:06:29.000It's called Let's Get to Work, which is my slogan back in 10 and 14, actually when I ran for the Senate too, is if you're able-bodied, you know, you can pick a logical age, but let's say 60.
00:06:39.000All right, you don't go on food stamps if you're not willing to go get a job and you can't, you shouldn't do public housing.
00:08:13.000And the speaker's office released this.
00:08:16.000They said that this reclaims $50 billion in unobligated, unspent COVID funding.
00:08:21.000It has the full Reigns Act to ensure Congress approve every major regulation, stronger work requirement for SnapTanf and Medicaid.
00:08:29.000And then they say it's $1.5 trillion in cuts.
00:08:32.000Senator, is it cuts or is it slowdowns in the rates of the expected growth of government?
00:08:39.000So I think most Americans would say if you cut something, you actually reduced, you know, if you spent $10, a cut would be if you got it for $8, right?
00:08:49.000So up here, what they want to say is, well, we anticipated spending a lot more.
00:08:53.000So if we don't quite spend as much more, we got a cut there.
00:08:56.000So I don't think that's how the American public think, but that's how they talk about it up here.
00:09:01.000The Biden budget is going to take us to, I think, almost $50 trillion worth of debt.

00:12:58.000I am here because I've told Floridians that I would work my butt off every day to make their lives better.
00:13:04.000Now, it wasn't to give them free money.
00:13:07.000People won't send me to go give them free money.
00:13:09.000What they do is they want good government.
00:13:11.000They want somebody that's going to follow the Constitution.
00:13:12.000They want somebody that's going to say, I'm going to do my best to create an economy where every Floridian can flourish and do well, that their kids can get a great education, live in a safe community, make sure we have a strong military.
00:13:24.000That's what they sent me to do, not to give away their money to somebody.
00:14:22.000Jim Justice, who is the governor of West Virginia and wants to become the senator, a poll comes out that shows he's up 25 points on Joe Manchin in a perspective one-on-one.
00:14:33.000Today, the Department of Justice, run by Joe Biden, announces civil action into his coal companies.
00:14:41.000Senator, this is getting wildly out of control.
00:14:44.000And I mean, one of the complaints that I have to have about this debt ceiling thing personally is why didn't we use it as leverage to defund the police state that we're living in?
00:14:55.000So, Senator, now this is the Department of Justice actively involving themselves in a Senate election in West Virginia.
00:15:02.000Well, let's think about what do these totalitarian governments do?
00:15:07.000Well, they use the departments of their government to attack opponents.
00:15:18.000And so we have got to stop and say to ourselves, this is really bad.
00:15:23.000We cannot have a government that attacks their opponents.
00:15:27.000I mean, that's not how we thought this country was going to be created and run.
00:15:31.000So we have to be vocal that this has to stop.
00:15:34.000And by the way, in this deal, Joe Manchin gets a win, right?
00:15:39.000And it might actually be something that is good policy.
00:15:43.000But what we're doing is we reward Joe Manchin for doing bad things last year by supporting a bill and then doing The big spending bill that they did.
00:15:55.000And so now he gets his pipeline, which might be good policy that we have that pipeline.
00:16:00.000But why don't we, why didn't we do the Keystone pipeline?
00:16:42.000This is a warning shot that, okay, you know, yeah, okay, Trump, we don't say anything, or Steve Bannon, we don't say anything, or Dinesh D'Souza, or James O'Keefe.
00:16:50.000You know, those are the fringe MAGA people.
00:17:22.000As students across the country graduate from colleges and universities, I'd like to highlight a place where our young people receive the best classical liberal arts education in America.
00:17:32.000When these students graduate, they have studied the great books, The History of Western Civilization in America, and the meaning in the history of the Constitution.
00:17:39.000Can you guess which college I'm talking about?
00:17:42.000It's my favorite college, Hillsdale College.
00:17:44.000Hillsdale was founded in 1844 to offer the kind of education needed to preserve civil and religious liberty.
00:17:50.000And it holds true to that mission today while refusing to accept one penny of taxpayer funding, not even indirectly in the form of student grants and loans.
00:17:59.000Hillsdale students also abide by an honor code, which ensures a unity of purpose and fosters lively, civil, and intelligent debate.
00:18:07.000And the best part, you can learn from Hillsdale free.
00:18:10.000That's right, for free through Imprimis by taking online courses on the American history, Constitution, and other subjects.

00:18:24.000It's an issue that I have not commented on in quite some time.
00:18:28.000I've had strong opinions on it, but it's one of those issues that's kind of out on the fringes and you talk about in more philosophical discussions, and you don't always get into the weeds of just how evil it is, but it seems to be accelerating.
00:18:40.000Similar to the trans thing and the LGBT thing, this is now something that you just can't escape.
00:18:46.000And it's not some sort of thing that is just an abstraction.
00:19:13.000And it says in his bio, he's an Armenian-American pathologist.
00:19:16.000I think it's an insult to all Armenians because I think he was an evil man.
00:19:19.000Dr. Kvorkian was the pioneer of modern physician-assisted suicide or medical assisted suicide, saying that people have a right to die.
00:19:33.000Kvorkian said that he assisted at least 130 patients to that end.
00:19:38.000He was convicted of murder for good reason in 1999 and was portrayed in the media with the name Dr. Death.
00:19:46.000In 1998, Kvorkian was arrested and tried for his role in voluntary euthanasia of a man named Thomas Yook, who had Lou Gehrig's disease, or ALS.
00:19:55.000He was eventually convicted of second-degree murder and served eight years of a 10 to 25-year prison sentence.
00:20:01.000It was kind of the test case of can you use the guise of medicine to do something immoral and wrong.
00:20:09.000One of the great challenges that I have in my advocacy and my discourse is trying to deprogram people's fascination and, quite honestly, idolatry of doctors for doctors' sake.
00:20:24.000There are some amazing doctors that have helped me tremendously.
00:20:36.000At the same time, there are life-saving doctors that have operated on me and I'm sure have operated on you.
00:20:42.000So I don't want to paint with too broad of a brush.
00:20:44.000But just because you are a doctor, just because it's done in a medical setting, does not automatically give you the medical equivalent of papal infallibility.
00:20:56.000Same as people that say, well, you know, you have to trust the medicine when it comes to the medical experts, when it comes to trans surgeries.
00:21:08.000We saw that with early treatments and masks and locking down schools.
00:21:12.000They're using the same coded language.
00:21:16.000They are piggybacking on the unearned but given trust that scientists and medical experts have to now legalize and popularize one of the more disgusting things that I think a society can embrace, which is to intentionally murder our old people.
00:23:12.000What you'll see here is a young lady and her grandmother in a TikTok video.
00:23:20.000Basically, she says, This is the last time I'm able to take my grandmother out to a restaurant because my grandmother wants to do euthanasia, medically assisted suicide.
00:23:31.000And then she sort of quasi-celebrates it.
00:24:46.000You would try to spend as much time that you have with what you control to help other people.
00:24:53.000What she is saying to her grandmother, Allie Tate Cutler, who's a plus-size Victoria Secret model and self-love coach, ah, that's what leads to this.
00:25:40.000Do you see the service mentality versus the pleasure mentality?
00:25:44.000You see, the Ten Commandments, the only one of the Ten Commandments that laid out, I had a promise and also involved your nation is honor your mother and father so that you may live long in the land of which you are in.
00:25:58.000Honor comes from a Hebrew word to treat heavily or to take heavily.
00:26:17.000This is eventually going to institutionalize and glorify the further continuation of a culture of death.
00:26:25.000One out of three of suicides in Canada are medically assisted according to rebel news.
00:26:31.000Now, some people might say, well, in this clip, the grandmother seems fine, that she just kind of wants to release herself into death.
00:26:38.000And I say to this, you should not have laws, a culture, or public propaganda that plays into the selfish need, wants, or desires of that elderly woman.
00:26:48.000She's basically saying, I've given all I possibly can.
00:26:58.000She wants to do the one thing that we as Christians believe only the divine gets to do.
00:27:04.000She wants to referee life and death, which is the exact same animating force of the trans and the abortion situation.
00:27:16.000Instead of saying, I want to model how to finish the race with grace, I want to keep giving my life to my grandkids.
00:27:22.000I'm going to show that you are going to keep on contributing.
00:27:26.000Another problem with this, if I have not persuaded you with you, which I think is totally something that is a fact, is it makes it easier for young kids to think it's no big deal to kill yourself.
00:27:38.000Life is just something to kind of be discarded.
00:28:02.000So someone who is struggling with suicidal ideation sees an elder totally at peace with exiting their own life.
00:28:10.000A religious society, in more particular, one that is based on the truths of the Bible, which built the West, would find this repulsive, of which it is.
00:28:20.000It would be challenging and say, look, I know you don't want to be dependent.
00:29:48.000When Mike invented My Pillow, it had everything you could ever want in a pillow now.
00:29:52.000Nearly 20 years later, he discovered a new technology that makes it even better.

00:31:14.000The question is, are you then going to go out of your way to first, and I think the part of this that animates me the most is yes, the moral decision of killing yourself is bad.
00:31:25.000But even worse than that is the popularization and the celebration of what that does to a young person or a younger generation that is already the most suicidal generation in history.
00:31:39.000So, you have the most suicidal generation in history, and you got this elderly woman who seems by all accounts very sweet, super misinformed by secular society with her Victoria's secret model, granddaughter.
00:31:55.000Now, based on her TikTok account, oh, she died around last Wednesday.
00:33:05.000Imagine if God had in store another day for her and she said, Meh, physician-assisted suicide or suicide in general is using the human will against the divine, saying, I'm on my own terms.
00:33:22.000Again, as I would say, I'll repeat myself: I'm done serving, I'm done contributing, I'm done giving.
00:33:27.000And some people say, Well, Charlie, they should have a full and complete right to do that.
