00:01:28.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:00.000And I came to a realization that we're living through something significant, a historic realignment.
00:02:05.000Started to take questions from the audience.
00:02:08.000And the audience was very upset with the two Republican senators from Idaho, Senator Crapo and Senator Risch.
00:02:14.000They feel as if they're not fighting hard enough, that one of them is one of the big cheerleaders of the Ukrainian conflict, the United States funding of the Ukrainian conflict.
00:02:54.000So you in this room here today with Christian, Christian conservative, you could call them hard right MAGA types, you're more excited about a Democrat running for the presidency than two Republican senators.
00:03:11.000And some of them were a little bit mixed on Elon, but they said generally fine.
00:03:15.000I said, how about Russell Brand or Glenn Greenwald?
00:03:19.000What I was getting at is I saw in real time, and I see this in every pocket of the country I travel to, saw this, by the way, in Naples, Florida, where I say Bobby Kennedy Jr.'s name and people get excited is I believe we're about to see a true and legitimate realignment.
00:03:36.000Now, look, you guys know we have a two-system, two-party system of government, and that's not the norm everywhere.
00:03:42.000In Britain, there are three national parties.
00:03:44.000In Israel, they have coalition government.
00:03:47.000When a realignment happens in America, it's historically very significant.
00:03:54.000The last major realignment that we saw was 1976, 1980 election with Jimmy Carter.
00:04:01.000Most southern states used to be Democrat.
00:04:03.000Now they are Republican, except for Virginia, which is Democrat, but even they elect Glenn Youngkin as governor of Virginia.
00:04:11.000The shift, that realignment happened because evangelical Christian voters began to support the Republican Party, along with pro-business voters in the South's new suburbs.
00:04:20.000So there was a realignment that happened for a reason.
00:04:22.000And we've kind of been living post-1990 with some exceptions, right?
00:04:27.000Al Gore struggled to win his home state of Tennessee.
00:05:06.000In fact, far too often, they're offering confusion.
00:05:09.000Instead, I'm starting to hear this from the grassroots.
00:05:11.000People say, oh, they're part of the Uniparty.
00:05:14.000They're part of the neoliberal regime.
00:05:15.000I say, that's an exciting thing to hear from a grassroots activist.
00:05:18.000That means you're listening to the right shows.
00:05:21.000You're engaging with the proper content.
00:05:24.000When you have a Democrat running for the presidency, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., that gets more applause from a grassroots conservative audience than sitting Republican senators, you should take note of that and ask, what on earth is going on?
00:05:38.000And I believe there is a new coalition being built, a coalition that is not right versus left, but instead bottom-up against the ruling oligarchy regime.
00:05:48.000And mind you, there is not complete agreement in this coalition.
00:05:52.000You got Russell Brand, Joe Rogan, Bobby Kennedy Jr., Steve Bannon, Bill Maher, Elon Musk, Matt Walsh, Glenn Greenwald, Tucker Carlson.
00:06:06.000Differences on social issues, but there seems to be some fundamental agreement.
00:06:11.000Number one, there seems to be fundamental agreement that there is an untouchable oligarchy running our country.
00:06:18.000An unelected, deep state, administrative state, a leviathan.
00:06:22.000We talk about this on our program repeatedly.
00:06:25.000That seems to be a point of agreement.
00:06:27.000There seems to be a second point of agreement, a belief in freedom of speech, freedom of dialogue, of inquiry, to challenge pre-existing power structures.
00:08:11.000But I would much rather have somebody like Bobby Kennedy Jr., who I agree on about 60 or 70% of the issues on, fight against the administrative state than a Republican from Idaho or a Republican senator like Lady Graham, who does some show votes on legislation that will never become law, but protects the administrative state, protects the deep state, that keeps our borders wide open and funds the proxy war in Ukraine.
00:08:40.000That is actively harming the fabric of the United States of America.
00:08:45.000What this new coalition represents is finally, finally a chance to have something that has been so sorely lacking that has not existed since I was born in 1993, a legitimate opposition party.
00:09:02.000One of the reasons America is in the mess that it's in is that we do not have an opposition party.
00:09:07.000The RNC, the Republican Party, Mitch McConnell is not, they are not an opposition party.
00:09:15.000They just want better seats on the Titanic.
00:09:17.000They want to make sure they still get invited to the cocktail parties.
00:09:21.000They want a sign of approval amongst the leadership oligarchy of the untouchable class.
00:09:30.000No, there seems to be something brewing that is exciting.
00:09:35.000It's also very risky, by the way, but it's necessary and it's healthy, which is a new coalition of anti-woke, pro-free speech, pro-America, pro-liberty, challenging corporate power, does not want foreign wars.
00:10:29.000This new coalition, this realignment that we are living through, has a chance to finally mount an opposition against the regime, which is exactly why they have to censor these voices, indict these voices, smear these voices.
00:10:43.000They know that 90% of the country could eventually agree on these common sense ideas.
00:11:12.000Good Ranchers is proud to be a trusted source for high-quality all-American meat, and they're the way to get the most out of your summer grilling season.

00:11:33.000Look, Good Ranchers supports American ranchers, American farmers.
00:14:02.000The Republican Party needs to be a place where we're willing to build coalitions, to entertain different voices.
00:14:10.000And so it's interesting and not compromising on principle, by the way.
00:14:14.000I am not saying for a second we should compromise on our pro-life stances or our strong border stances.
00:14:20.000But honestly, you go through the list.
00:14:21.000Russell Brand, Joe Rogan, you know, Bobby Kennedy Jr., Steve Bannon, Bill Maher, Elon Musk, Matt Walsh, Glenn Greenwald, Tucker Carlson, this program, Charlie Kirk Show, Dan Bongino.
00:14:33.000There are actually very few points of disagreement on the most pressing issues.
00:14:38.000For example, stable currency and checking the Federal Reserve.
00:15:45.000He spoke against the mandatory vaccine.
00:15:48.000It doesn't matter what Joe Rogan says or does.
00:15:50.000He's passed the quote-unquote purity test more than almost any establishment Republican.
00:15:55.000Not only was Joe Rogan attacked for that, he was nearly obliterated for it.
00:16:00.000When was the last time an establishment Republican had to endure the type of maligning, lying, smearing, or mocking that Matt Walsh, Glenn Greenwald, Tucker Carlson, Bobby Kennedy?
00:16:14.000By the way, I could add James O'Keefe to the list.
00:16:42.000Right-wing Charlie Kirk and right-wing Steve Bannon and right-wing Matt Walsh have positive things to say about Bobby Kennedy Jr.
00:16:52.000Robert Kennedy Jr. is not on board with half of our message.
00:16:54.000That's okay, at least for this moment in time, because we have an overwhelming threat, which is the woke mind virus, the trans social contagion, the administrative state.
00:17:06.000Building these coalitions is necessary.
00:17:09.000The realignment we're living through is about courage against the powerful, a restoration of representative government.
00:17:18.000It's about parents, not perverts, citizens, not bureaucrats, about entrepreneurs, not major corporations, peace, not stupid, reckless war, borders, not globalism, nationalism, not internationalism.
00:18:53.000Wouldn't it be exciting for once to have real debates about the issues?
00:18:57.000Wouldn't it be exciting to be able to talk about war, corporate power, the same stuff that Tucker mentioned in his Twitter video last week?
00:19:05.000How many times have you heard the talking heads, the Operation Mockingbird, the Apparatch, people in your local circle?
00:19:12.000Well, all we have to do is win the Senate.
00:19:16.000All we have to do is win this election.
00:19:18.000Now, don't get me wrong, winning elections is very important.
00:19:20.000Using political power is very important.
00:19:22.000But I think we all understand at this point, there's something a lot deeper going on.
00:19:28.000The game, the way it's been structured, is about a fake struggle of power.
00:19:33.000One of the only major noticeable differences legislatively between Republicans and Democrats is judges.
00:19:59.000Complete agreement on Ukraine, complete agreement on the pharmaceutical industrial complex, complete agreement on the war machine, complete agreement on domestic surveillance and censorship, complete agreement on the untouchable nature of the FBI, complete agreement on globalism versus domestic, complete agreement on spending and debt.
00:20:18.000I mean, how many trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars do we need to spend before we realize that the whole game, the way it's actually designed, it's not working.
00:20:29.000The Republican-Democrat thing is really just a power-sharing agreement.
00:20:34.000The Republican-Democrat uniparty is: okay, you might win an election, you might win an election, yeah, you might get some judges, you might get some things we don't like, but the power-sharing agreement is we're never going to go after the fundamental issues that are really damaging the country and making us powerful and rich.
00:20:51.000It's a battle between those who love truth and those who go along to get along.
00:20:55.000Most Republican senators, I'm sure, are very sweet people.
00:20:59.000I'm sure that you would have them over for dinner and they would tell you a couple funny stories about how Mitch McConnell fell asleep in the middle of a meeting.
00:21:12.000Go run for a library board or mosquito abatement director, okay?
00:21:17.000We need people that are ideologically and culturally ready to engage in the battle that matters.
00:21:23.000Tucker Carlson summed it up perfectly here in his last public address at the Heritage Foundation before his show just got canceled.
00:21:32.000He talks about the coalition of the awakened.
00:21:35.000It's almost impossible to predict where this is going, but it's exciting.
00:21:38.000And all of you that are without hope, I hope you're sitting on the edge of your seat because you're about to live through a realignment.
00:21:44.000Historians, 100 years from now, are going to talk about the post-COVID, the post-Floyd depalooza, the post-alphabet mafia tyranny of the country realignment.
00:21:55.000Tucker Carlson does what Tucker Carlson does best, PlayCut 17.
00:21:58.000I'm really interested in cause and effect.
00:22:00.000And as I noted at the outset of my remarks and my ability to predict the future, working on that.
00:22:08.000But because I'm sort of paid to predict things, I try and think a lot about, you know, what connects certain outcomes that I should have seen before they occurred.
00:22:18.000And in this case, there is no thread that I can find that connects all of the people who've popped up in my life to be that lone brave person in the crowd who says, no, thank you.
00:22:30.000You could not have known who these people are.
00:22:36.000Some of them don't look like me at all.
00:22:38.000Some of them are people I despised on political grounds just a few years ago.
00:22:42.000I could name their names, but you may not even know about their transformations.
00:22:45.000I don't want to wreck your dinner by telling you who they are.
00:22:48.000But there's in one case someone who I made fun of on television and certainly in my private life in vulgar ways, who was really the embodiment of everything I found repulsive, who in the middle of COVID decided, no, I'm not going along with this.
00:23:01.000And once you say one true thing and stick with it, all kinds of other true things occur to you.
00:23:56.000And I think that's actually one of the reasons why some of the country know that all of a sudden they start asking the proper questions about Epstein.
00:24:04.000They start asking the proper questions about the mandatory vaccine.
00:24:07.000It's going to make them uncomfortable.
00:24:09.000But that's what is so beautiful about the Christian theological promise, which is the truth will set you free.
00:24:16.000But once you are free, that means you have to take responsibility for your life.
00:25:02.000He comes out and he says, yeah, you know, the trade deals are terrible.
00:25:05.000He really, Trump, this, if there is something where one of Trump's greatest lasting legacies, and he was a phenomenal president, is that he just broke all these sacred cows on the right.
00:25:34.000And what he did is he liberated millions of other truth tellers.
00:25:39.000Now, this is the issue, though, is that moderate Republicans appropriate MAGAism when they are really uniparty-type spokespeople.
00:25:49.000There's very few people in DC that actually are listening to their voters and want a citizen response to this bipartisan power-sharing agreement between Republicans and Democrats, like Lady Graham.
00:26:02.000He doesn't want any structural change.
00:26:05.000He wants invade the world, invite the world.
00:26:07.000And yeah, he might vote correctly on judges, and he deserves credit for that.
00:26:36.000I mean, there's a couple people talking here or there, but it's not like we have some group chat going on with Joe Rogan and Russell Brand and Bobby Kennedy Jr. and Steve Bannon and Bill Maher and Tucker.
00:26:49.000And they're like, hey, let's talk about this.
00:27:47.000And you see this with most right-wing broadcasters.
00:27:50.000Most right-wing broadcasters on television don't engage on the issues that are actually civilizational turning issues.
00:27:56.000Currency, international hegemony, global reserve currency, way too many people coming into the country, vaccine mandates, pharmaceutical industrial complex.
00:28:09.000The cost for speaking truth right now is very high.
00:28:12.000If you lie and you parrot what the regime wants you, you'll get paid.
00:28:50.000But they get paid because they're obedient, because they're masters in the corporate America and in the deep state and the administrative state of government.
00:28:58.000They need those, you can call them liars, but they're just, they're just communication agents of a globalist corrupt regime.
00:29:08.000You know, there's another thing that this coalition has in common is that there's an embracing of disagreement.
00:29:16.000Whether it be Matt Walsh or Joe Rogan, there's almost a leaning into the people that don't see the world the way we do.
00:29:22.000I mean, we do our best at Turning Point USA when we have these campus events.
00:29:26.000When we say anybody who disagrees can go to the front of the line for one hour uninterrupted, we can have question and answer.
00:29:32.000You could say whatever you want to me.
00:29:33.000Joe Rogan has people who disagree with him all the time on his program.
00:29:36.000Russell Brand is a free speech warrior.
00:29:38.000Bill Maher has people on his program all the time.
00:29:41.000Tucker Carlson would have interesting and difficult conversations.
00:29:45.000You see, you might find common cause with pro-abortion people like Bobby Kennedy Jr., or the pro-shroom people like Joe Rogan, or the Namaste people like Russell Brand, or with gay people like Dave Rubin and Glenn Greenwald.
00:30:01.000What really matters right now is to defeat the existential enemy, not allow the regime to say those people should not be on your team, when in reality, we need to defeat the enemy that is at the gates.
00:30:53.000That's actually what makes the battle of ideas exciting and new and fresh.
00:30:59.000But you understand that the regime, Joy Reed, the racewoman, Chuck Todd, the turtle, Lady Graham, they don't like debate because they are brittle.
00:32:55.000I think we all agree the most important thing going on in the world right now is the war in Ukraine.
00:33:01.000The most important thing, not the dollar losing its global reserve currency status or the CCP taking over the world.
00:33:07.000No, he thinks the most important thing happening on the planet is the war in Ukraine, not our own southern border or the suicide epidemic with young people or AI.
00:33:17.000Artificial intelligence, unrestricted, unchecked artificial intelligence growing at the current rate is way more dangerous than Vladimir Putin.
