00:00:26.000 Hey everybody, what are the true motivations? behind the abolished police movement.
00:00:31.000 What if I told you that they want a national police force?
00:00:35.000 That they actually want police that work for them.
00:00:40.000 We explore that through everything that's happening in the news cycle today.
00:00:45.000 Email us your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:01:23.000 National Police Force, it's coming.
00:01:24.000 What does that mean?
00:01:25.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:01:26.000 Here we go.
00:01:28.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:01:29.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:01:31.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:01:35.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:38.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:39.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:40.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:01:47.000 Turning point USA.
00:01:48.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:57.000 That's why we are here.
00:02:00.000 So have you ever browsed in incognito mode?
00:02:02.000 It's probably not as incognito as you think.
00:02:04.000 And why would it be?
00:02:05.000 Incognito mode, like the Chrome browser itself is a Google product, and Google has made its fortune by tracking your movements online.
00:02:11.000 There's even a $5 billion class action lawsuit against the company in California, where it's accused of secretly collecting user data.
00:02:17.000 Google's defense, incognito, does not mean invisible.
00:02:20.000 So how do you actually make yourself as invisible as possible online, ExpressVPN?
00:02:24.000 Turns out that even in incognito mode, your online activity still gets tracked.
00:02:28.000 And data brokers still get to buy and sell your data.
00:02:32.000 One of these data points is in your IP address.
00:02:34.000 Data harvesters use your IP to uniquely identify you and your location, but with ExpressVPN, your connection gets rerouted through an encrypted server and your IP address is masked.
00:02:43.000 Every time you connect to ExpressVPN, you get a random IP address shared by other ExpressVPN customers that makes it harder for third parties to identify you or harvest your data.
00:02:51.000 Best of all, ExpressVPN is super easy to use no matter what device you're on, phone, laptop, or smart TV.
00:02:56.000 All you have to do is tap one button for instant protection.
00:02:58.000 So if you really want to go incognito and protect your privacy, secure yourself with the number one rated VPN.

00:03:12.000 A couple days ago, when the news story broke of the police shooting or the shooting in Columbus, Ohio, immediately I waited for the facts to come out because I knew that whatever the media was telling me in regards to a 16-year-old being shot and killed by the police unarmed was likely not true.
00:03:36.000 And that commitment to patience paid off because the activist media and the BLM incorporated leaders like Brie Newsome and some of these other people, they weren't just wrong.
00:03:50.000 They were intentionally lying about the situation.
00:03:54.000 And I said a couple days ago, and I'll double down on it, that basically the argument that BLM was making is, how dare you break up our knife fights?
00:04:04.000 How dare you get in the way of a very normal thing that happens in our communities?
00:04:12.000 And I made light of it then, and it's kind of become right into the mainstream of conservative commentary, thankfully.
00:04:20.000 I've actually been very happy.
00:04:22.000 I have to say, one thing that I've been happy about the last 24 hours, I watch a lot of other snippets of shows, I read a lot of things, is how unified the conservative commentary space has been on this Columbus shooting.
00:04:38.000 This would not have happened five years ago.
00:04:42.000 It's a really good thing.
00:04:43.000 The conservative commentary space and the conservative activist space is not giving an inch when it has come to this nonsense of what happened in Ohio.
00:04:52.000 It's really, really good.
00:04:55.000 Because what would have happened five years ago is we would have had some, you know, Mitt Romney-style press release.
00:05:00.000 Now, while the officer very well might have been justified, this is just another example of a situation gone wrong, of systemic structural racism, and only corporate tax cuts and mass immigration, drug legalization is the way to do this, like some sort of weird, bizarre corporate Republican approach to this.
00:05:16.000 Now, every single conservative commentator that I've seen has said, you know what?
00:05:24.000 This is a knife fight.
00:05:25.000 The police officer tried to break it up.
00:05:27.000 He tried to intervene peacefully and he saved a young black girl's life.
00:05:33.000 Here's this guy in MSNBC, Jason Johnson.
00:05:36.000 This is a guy who's teaching your children, by the way.
00:05:39.000 He's a professor at Morgan State University.
00:05:41.000 He has now earned a position on our professor watch list.
00:05:46.000 Play Cut 97.
00:05:48.000 Nakia Bryant, a 16-year-old girl in Columbus, Ohio, called the police for help.
00:05:54.000 An officer was on the scene, and in 22 seconds, he shot her dead.
00:05:58.000 An honor roll student who's making TikTok videos on makeup and hair.
00:06:02.000 This hasn't stopped.
00:06:04.000 And still, 40 minutes after that ruling, a 16-year-old girl can be shot in front of her house.
00:06:12.000 So no, I'm not hopeful.
00:06:14.000 Because unless there is wholesale, wholesale change, abolishment of this institution that continues to fail tax-paying black people in this country, everything else is just fanciful thinking.
00:06:27.000 So if you actually listen to the 911 call, first of all, we don't know who called the police yet.
00:06:30.000 He's just either assuming it or he's been misinformed or he's intentionally lying.
00:06:34.000 Three different things that could be happening there.
00:06:37.000 But if you listen to 911 call, which we're going to play in Cut 95, it was someone in that community who says there's someone trying to stab us.
00:06:47.000 Cut 95.
00:06:49.000 These girl girls over here trying to fight us, trying to stop us, trying to put our hands on our grandma's data now.
00:06:54.000 We need a police officer here now.
00:06:57.000 We need a police officer here now.
00:06:58.000 You know, it's really interesting.
00:07:00.000 When the adrenaline starts pumping and you fear for your life, all of a sudden you call the police.
00:07:10.000 And I feel for whomever that is, that girl is on the phone.
00:07:13.000 It could be a Makia.
00:07:13.000 I don't know who it is.
00:07:14.000 We don't know who it is.
00:07:15.000 Sounds like a younger person.
00:07:18.000 They want the police in their neighborhood.
00:07:20.000 They invited the police in their neighborhood.
00:07:22.000 They said, come help me, police.
00:07:24.000 So Jason Johnson, professor at Morgan State University, they wanted the police.
00:07:30.000 Cut 96, the video of where you hear the girl that says, I'm going to stab the bleep, the bleep, the bleep, a bleep, a bleep, a bleep out of you.
00:07:38.000 Cut 96.
00:07:57.000 Yeah, why would anyone want to break up a knife fight?
00:07:59.000 Just let it happen, right?
00:08:00.000 I mean, come on.
00:08:01.000 What are you a racist?
00:08:03.000 Knife fights are a critical part of human development.
00:08:07.000 Joy Reed, who's really special, she's defending, she's more concerned about the white officer and doesn't actually care about the lives of the other girl, Cut 99.
00:08:21.000 I don't know the details of what happened beforehand, but I'm bothered that no one is asking what could have scared a 16-year-old girl enough that she felt she had to grab a kitchen knife facing two adult women, right?
00:08:36.000 People are just, no one's asking what would have scared a kid who's in a foster situation so much that she felt that she needed to defend herself or pick up a knife.
00:08:46.000 No one's asking that about her.
00:08:48.000 They're just saying people with this sort of concern trolling, pretending they care so much about those other two women.
00:08:53.000 And Brittany pointed that on social media last night.
00:08:55.000 Do we really think these people are so concerned about those other two black women?
00:09:00.000 Well, Joy Reed, are you trying to say that there might be structural family problems in the black community?
00:09:05.000 I'm happy to have that robust discussion with you.
00:09:07.000 Are you actually trying to say that there might be dysfunction and that the police officer was invited into this situation?
00:09:14.000 But what if I told you that on the same day in the same state, a 13-year-old was killed by another 13-year-old with a knife?
00:09:24.000 That's right.
00:09:26.000 Knife attacks are increasing dramatically in our country right now.
00:09:30.000 Maybe it's because LeBron James glamorizes it.
00:09:33.000 LeBron James acts as if knife fights are part of the historic fabric of the black community.
00:09:42.000 Jazz music and knife fights is what LeBron James would say.
00:09:45.000 That's what really makes the black community special.
00:09:47.000 It's ridiculous.
00:09:48.000 Cut 100 news report of a 13-year-old slashing the neck of another.
00:09:53.000 Cut 100.
00:09:54.000 No record.
00:09:55.000 She's an A student.
00:09:57.000 We're not sharing her name because she's a juvenile.
00:10:00.000 The suspect is accused of slashing the throat of another 13-year-old girl Monday night.
00:10:05.000 Naira Givens died.
00:10:07.000 Slashing a throat of another 13-year-old girl.
00:10:11.000 So I guess now our eyes are being opened that this is a regular occurrence.
00:10:15.000 And are they being, are they desensitized to this so much that what really bothers them is a police officer responding to help?
00:10:26.000 So this is heading in a very predictable direction.
00:10:31.000 And actually, I think everyone is missing where this is headed.
00:10:35.000 Because the abolishment of police is not where this is going.
00:10:38.000 It isn't.
00:10:39.000 That is an Overton window moving communication strategy.
00:10:44.000 There were 1,500 knife homicides in 2019.
00:10:50.000 In fact, there are hundreds of young black children under the age of 18 that have been killed with knives in the last couple years.
00:11:00.000 So I guess this is a very big deal, but can't intervene.
00:11:06.000 What is the actual goal of this abolish police and police criticism push?
00:11:14.000 It's actually the opposite of what you might think.
00:11:19.000 It's actually the opposite of some of the things that some of the guests on our program have said.
00:11:25.000 And it's right in front of us.
00:11:28.000 And we need to take a step back and ask, what has been the through line of every single proposal from the left over the last couple decades?
00:11:42.000 And the answer to that is where this is headed.
00:11:45.000 Because it's not about abolishing the police.
00:11:48.000 It's about what Jason Johnson said, abolishing the current police status quo.
00:11:56.000 There's a group of people that the BLM activists hate more than anything else, and it's local police.
00:12:04.000 And I'm going to tell you how this is going to impact your community.
00:12:07.000 And the next proposal they are going to make is right in front of us, and everyone is missing it.
00:12:14.000 So where is this going?
00:12:16.000 Why are the Democrats so fixated on abolishing the police?
00:12:22.000 The initial point that is made is only half right.
00:12:28.000 Many people on television say Democrats just want chaos.
00:12:33.000 That is partially true.
00:12:36.000 But why do Democrats want chaos?
00:12:40.000 Who benefits from chaos?
00:12:43.000 If there's the lack of order, what do then people demand?
00:12:49.000 Order.
00:12:50.000 Well, you say, well, then, Charlie, why would they want chaos?
00:12:53.000 Because where this is headed is the Democrats want a national police force.
00:12:59.000 The Democrats hate the fact that there are local sheriffs and local DAs and local police commissioners that they can't control.
00:13:10.000 They want a nationalized police force that they can enforce whatever laws they want, however they want, that they can use it as an intimidation tactic.
00:13:20.000 I'm dealing with this right now in a certain state across the country that I will not name, where I'm going to visit very soon, and 700 terrorists are going to try and show up, and the local police feels outnumbered.
00:13:35.000 They do not believe they have the resources to do it.
00:13:38.000 And the National Guard won't be sent in.
00:13:42.000 So I don't know if we're going to show up and speak there or not.
00:13:44.000 That's actually a thing we're dealing with right now, where 700 domestic terrorists are threatening to go burn down the community because I'm going to go speak.
00:13:54.000 It's happening in real time.
00:13:56.000 The Democrats want their own police force.
00:14:00.000 So what's the power of having your own police force?
00:14:02.000 Let me tell you the power of having your own police force.
00:14:05.000 When you have your own police force, you can send someone into the White House to go talk to Michael Flynn and entrap him and completely ruin the national security apparatus, the legitimacy, and the trust of an administration in two weeks or less.
00:14:25.000 And I'm, of course, talking about Peter Strzok, who walked into the White House where his 302s, who have been declassified, shows that he was illegally trying to entrap Michael Flynn.
00:14:36.000 That's the power of a police force.
00:14:39.000 You know what the other power of a police force is?
00:14:41.000 Spying on your enemies, using the FISA courts to be able to know what Donald Trump is saying.
00:14:48.000 Ruin Carter Page's life.
00:14:52.000 You know, another example of having a police force?
00:14:54.000 Lois Lerner going after conservative nonprofits 10 years ago from the Internal Revenue Service.
00:15:02.000 But that's not enough for them.
00:15:04.000 They want a police force in your neighborhood that they control.
00:15:09.000 They don't like the fact that police officers are generally more interested in the well-being of the community than some sort of abstract ideology.
00:15:21.000 They don't like the fact that police forces are able to implement their own standards of conduct.
00:15:26.000 That's why the Department of Justice is marching in to the city of Minneapolis to go investigate George Floyd's killing.
00:15:34.000 Wasn't that the whole point of the trial?
00:15:37.000 No, no, no, no.
00:15:38.000 You see, this is, you guys got to look at this three-dimensional.
00:15:42.000 Why is Merrick Garland marching the Department of Justice into Minneapolis?
00:15:45.000 He wants to nationalize the Minneapolis Police Force.
00:15:48.000 That's why.
00:15:49.000 To enforce certain laws that they want to see enforced that go after conservatives and not enforce other ones.
00:15:57.000 They want to create a modern equivalent of the SS.
00:16:02.000 It's that simple.
00:16:03.000 A national police force that can be the muscle of the Democrat Party that will turn a blind eye on the arson and the looting and the rioting, prostitution, and drugs.
00:16:15.000 But if you dare open your church in the midst of a lockdown, we will lock you away forever.
00:16:23.000 Did you know that 80% of the grass-fed beef sold in the United States is imported from overseas?

00:17:41.000 Anything that is local is a threat to the left.
00:17:45.000 The entire premise of the United States Constitution is based on local, bottom-up.
00:17:53.000 The states created the federal government.
00:17:55.000 The federal government did not create the states.
00:17:57.000 It's a coalition of states.
00:17:59.000 It's actually in the name of our nation, the United States of America.
00:18:05.000 You're not the centralized command of America.
00:18:10.000 It's actually a really important point because most of Europe does not understand the states-based model.
00:18:16.000 Therefore, going on an even more granular basis than that, on a county and city level, policing has been largely left to the citizens in neighborhoods and cities.
00:18:30.000 Now, this ended up being a problem.
00:18:33.000 If you actually go through a history of policing in America, which I'm happy to do on a different podcast, I encourage you guys to subscribe to our podcast.
00:18:41.000 But if you actually go through a history in policing in America, this idea of a federal police force is a very new phenomenon.
00:18:49.000 And it was largely only because of one thing.
00:18:51.000 Do you know what that was?
00:18:53.000 Bank robberies.
00:18:56.000 That's right.
00:18:58.000 Bank robberies is why a national police force was created.
00:19:03.000 Now, a creep, a weirdo, a psychopath by the name of J. Edgar Hoover, he discovered a good way to be able to detect fingerprints.
00:19:12.000 That was basically his contribution to American policing because there were a lot of unsolved bank robberies happening in the 1920s and 1930s and mass murders of prohibition.
00:19:26.000 So what would happen is that you would have a bank robber that would rob a bank in Maryland and then go to New York.
00:19:35.000 Now the bank robbers weren't dumb.
00:19:37.000 They were like, oh, if I go across state lines, then these states are not going to really be sure how to come after me.
00:19:42.000 So J. Edgar Hoover pushed hard.
00:19:45.000 And I believe it was originally chartered the beginnings of the FBI under FDR and then Eisenhower, but it really got steam under Nixon.
00:19:54.000 I know that JFK and Nixon is really where the FBI started to get steam.
00:19:59.000 But there was this push to be able to enforce interstate crimes, crimes that happen in between states, because who has that jurisdiction?
00:20:09.000 So many of you guys are familiar with that show of the guy that always talks in the most dramatic tones.
00:20:19.000 And the FBI was officially formed in 1908, but it was changed in 1935.
00:20:25.000 So Roosevelt, yeah, that's right.
00:20:28.000 And so this idea of a national police force has always been kept in check by the legislative branch and the courts saying, hey, this is really not your jurisdiction.
00:20:38.000 This happens a lot.
00:20:41.000 And so, for example, when there's an abduction across state, the abduction only becomes the FBI's problem when it crosses state lines.
00:20:49.000 But a bank robbery, regardless, immediately becomes the FBI's jurisdiction, immediately.
00:20:56.000 Now, before the FBI, do you know who dealt with the most federal crimes was the United States Secret Service.
00:21:03.000 The U.S. Secret Service has always been involved in currency crimes.
00:21:07.000 They still are, actually.
00:21:08.000 Anything involving counterfeit currency, that's actually the reason why the Secret Service was originally formed.
00:21:18.000 So the FBI had a lot of power.
00:21:23.000 It was abused.
00:21:24.000 I think that's fair to say.
00:21:25.000 The FBI spied on Martin Luther King Jr.
00:21:28.000 The FBI became almost a pet project of the creep J. Edgar Hoover, who was a cross-dresser and a really weird guy.
00:21:37.000 He just was.
00:21:38.000 No, it's documented.
00:21:39.000 He actually spied on JFK and spied on Bobby Kennedy too, who was the attorney general for his brother, who was the president of the United States JFK.
00:21:51.000 And so this idea of a national enforcement arm has not been a net negative necessarily for America when it comes to certain crimes: drug trafficking, child sex trafficking, public corruption cases.
00:22:07.000 That's a really important function of a federal law enforcement because the states are not set up in any way, form, nor should they be about those kind of interstate crimes.
00:22:19.000 But still, the vast majority of criminal enforcement happens on the local level and then maybe the state level.
00:22:28.000 But that's changing rather rapidly, isn't it?
00:22:32.000 It's changing because the Democrats and the BLM activists, let me say this as clearly as possible, they have never wanted to abolish the police.
00:22:43.000 They just want a police force that they can control.
00:22:48.000 Now, some of the activists actually want a police force to be abolished.
00:22:52.000 They really do.
00:22:53.000 They believe in a Rassoian view of human nature where human nature is malleable, and if we get rid of police, we can live in this kind of kumbaya utopia.
00:23:03.000 Just look at Chaz.
00:23:04.000 They actually believe that.
00:23:07.000 But the people in charge are actually a lot smarter than that.
00:23:10.000 They know that there's always going to be a desire for order.
00:23:14.000 And this is why the arc of Marxist movements always end in totalitarianism.
00:23:21.000 Always.
00:23:23.000 They use the workers and their complaints to give them power.
00:23:31.000 It's brilliant, actually.
00:23:33.000 And this has manifested itself so many different ways.
00:23:39.000 So let's go to Cut 101.
00:23:41.000 This is part of this narrative.
00:23:43.000 Cut 101 is, no, no, whatever this woman is.
00:23:47.000 She's on our professor watch list, professorwatchlist.org at Turning Point USA.
00:23:51.000 What's her name?
00:23:52.000 Whatever her name is, play tape.
00:23:55.000 Look, the argument for our movements has never been that black people have to be perfect in order for them to deserve dignity, for us to have good policing, for us to be viewed with humanity, for cops to take a breath before they literally get out of the car guns blazing.
00:24:11.000 So that's the first, right?
00:24:13.000 That this is never what the argument for the movement for black lives has been is that you just get to kill black people, particularly when they're not being perfect.
00:24:21.000 No black person is really truly going to be safe if we cannot be having a bad day.
00:24:25.000 If we cannot defend ourselves and we think we are going to get jumped, if we call the cops and they can't show up and tell who the victim is and who the perpetrators are and they can't use their training to adjudicate regular old everyday community conflict.
00:24:39.000 You hear that?
00:24:40.000 If you're attempting murder, you're having a bad day.
00:24:46.000 I think Charlie Manson's defense team is looking at themselves.
00:24:49.000 They say, you know what?
00:24:52.000 How did we miss that?
00:24:56.000 I think that Eric Rudolph, who executed the Centennial Park bombing, he's looking at this and saying, huh, if only I had a lawyer that would have just said I had a bad day.
00:25:09.000 Ted Kaczynski, the unabomber, I mean, come on, bad day.
00:25:14.000 Timothy McVay, bad day.
00:25:18.000 Now, I just hear media matters.
00:25:19.000 Charlie Kirk compares Makia Wright to Timothy McVay.
00:25:22.000 Well, probably a lot more mass murder, obviously, on Timothy McVay, but she was trying to murder somebody.
00:25:30.000 Attempted murder.
00:25:33.000 Not something I'm going to trivialize as if she was trying to murder someone because her boyfriend broke up with her.
00:25:43.000 This is the kind of moral justification that's happening.
00:25:47.000 But what's really happening here, and if you study their language closely, they really don't want to get rid of the police.
00:25:55.000 And I'll prove it to you.
00:25:57.000 Why are they okay with the National Guard still guarding Congress?
00:26:00.000 Because they control them.
00:26:03.000 Why are they okay with a stormtrooper armed force doing their bidding?
00:26:10.000 It's because they control them.
00:26:11.000 So it's never been about the idea of police ever.
00:26:15.000 It's been about how they are not able to give them marching orders.
00:26:20.000 That's what this is really about.
00:26:23.000 Why is Maxine Waters okay with personal police protection while she's marching in the streets?
00:26:30.000 It's because what's always bothered them about local policing, about county district attorneys, is that they actually put the law above ideology.
00:26:42.000 That they actually put justice, legitimate justice, over power.
00:26:47.000 That bothers them.
00:26:51.000 The squad, Ayana Presley and Alexandria Casio-Cortez, they spend thousands and thousands of dollars on personal security.
00:26:59.000 And I think the way that most conservatives that are in, that are kind of do commentary, they may be like, oh, what a hypocrite.
00:27:08.000 No, that's not actually the point.
00:27:10.000 You're missing the point.
00:27:12.000 The point is that they're arguing for an abolishment of police so that they can eventually get to a nationalized police.
00:27:19.000 They all believe in police.
00:27:21.000 They know they need stormtroopers to go fight their domestic battles.
00:27:26.000 They know that.
00:27:29.000 And of course, there are the idealistic utopians that actually think that we're going to get rid of private property and that we're going to create chazz and that we're all going to get all going to kind of live in this John Lennon song of like some sort of Eastern religion, Buddhist, like hill country environment.
00:27:52.000 Like I could just see like this, you know, there will be peace, we're all happy, no more, you know, no more murder, and all we have is love.
00:27:58.000 I could just, there are, there's actually, there's an idealist point to some of the activists.
00:28:07.000 But Joy Reed's not one of those people.
00:28:09.000 Of course not.
00:28:09.000 She lives, she's lived a wonderful, she's lived a very nice life.
00:28:14.000 None of those apparatchiks on MSNBC that are just screaming all the time, very angry people.
00:28:21.000 No, no, no.
00:28:21.000 They've gotten to a point where privately and not so carefully, publicly, they are all saying, look, policing as it is doesn't work.
00:28:33.000 So now we need policing to work for us.
00:28:36.000 We need a police force that will deploy when we need them.
00:28:40.000 A police force that can enforce our laws, not the law.
00:28:49.000 So someone asked me, they said, Charlie, what do you think are the growth businesses that are coming very soon?
00:28:56.000 I said, bullets and private security.
00:28:59.000 Ammunition is going to be the new currency.
00:29:03.000 It's going to be harder than ever to find bullets.
00:29:05.000 There's a huge ammo manufacturing shortage.
00:29:07.000 Bullets are objectively valuable.
00:29:10.000 And then private security.
00:29:12.000 So what's going to happen is that police officers are going to say, I'm not going to police these areas.
00:29:19.000 And so then the solution for the Democrats will be: okay, we're going to take power in Washington and we are going to introduce a new type of police force that will have been trained in equity and diversity and inclusion and critical theory.
00:29:37.000 And they're going to start policing white neighborhoods and policing things that you might not ever have thought that was necessary for policing.
00:29:46.000 And they'll turn a blind eye on crime that they think is permissible, like murder, perfectly fine.
00:29:53.000 Because in Chicago, it's just been announced that Mayor Lori Lightfoot has said that Chicago police will need permission to chase suspects on foot.
00:30:05.000 And you wonder why people are leaving these cities in record numbers.
00:30:10.000 Is it time to stop renting and buy your first home?
00:30:14.000 Owning your home is an investment in your future.

00:31:14.000 It is the human norm.
00:31:16.000 It is the pattern of our condition and our nature to want to dominate other human beings.
00:31:24.000 More energy, more time, more resources has been dedicated to dominating and owning and conquering and managing and controlling other human beings than any other activity in the history of our species.
00:31:39.000 Which is, of course, what made the American government different.
00:31:44.000 Made the American promise, the American project, the American nation different.
00:31:49.000 That it was a promise to its citizens that we are going to chart a new path.
00:31:56.000 That we, the people in charge, the people with the money, the guns, the land, the trust, the language, the literacy, we are not going to use our power to dominate you.
00:32:07.000 It's a big deal.
00:32:11.000 Most countries, most leaders would have run towards that opportunity and they would have created the Jeffersonian and Washatonian and Hamiltonian monarchy, and we would be living in some form of a despotic state with beautiful scenery.
00:32:29.000 Instead, the founding fathers decided to do different.
00:32:32.000 They rejected the totalitarian temptation.
00:32:38.000 Make no mistake, every human being that gets money, wealth, power, resources, a following, attention, clout deals with this temptation.
00:32:51.000 Every single person.
00:32:53.000 And the temptation is, why don't you control more people?
00:32:59.000 Why don't you exercise your brilliance, your wisdom?
00:33:04.000 You could do it to help people.
00:33:05.000 Don't you understand?
00:33:07.000 So the reason why George Washington changed the course of human history is he was the first conqueror, winner, victor to say, I'm stepping down.
00:33:21.000 He changed the trajectory of civil governance by putting limits on his own power.
00:33:31.000 Why did he do that?
00:33:33.000 Because he had virtue.
00:33:34.000 That's why.
00:33:36.000 George Washington was a great man.
00:33:38.000 George Washington was a prayerful man.
00:33:40.000 He was a man steeped in the classics who understood rights came from God, not from government.
00:33:48.000 So now do you think that AOC and Ayanna Presley and Elon Omar and all these people, when that moment comes to them and there is that totalitarian temptation in front of them, do you think they'll have a George Washington moment or a Joseph Stalin moment?
00:34:07.000 I think we all know the answer to that.
00:34:09.000 Do you think when the moment in front of them, when they said they wanted to abolish police and all of a sudden they have a police force that works for them, do you think they will have the wise restraints to enforce the law as it should be?
00:34:25.000 Or do you think they will use the stormtroopers for equity, to try to right the wrongs of the sins of yesterday?
00:34:37.000 You see, the more I study history and really study it, I realize how special America is, how rare America is.
00:34:50.000 It's a short glimmer of what I call the bloodbath of our planet.
00:34:56.000 Most civilizations end before they even get started.
00:35:02.000 It's just a bunch of self-interested monarchs, wannabe despots that send serfs and peasants to go fight their wars.
00:35:12.000 You live till you're like 27.
00:35:15.000 It's kind of an awful existence.
00:35:17.000 But America is this different project.
00:35:19.000 It's a different promise.
00:35:22.000 And it's because we have a framework, a constitutional system from the bottom up that our leaders made a decision to reject the totalitarian temptation to not go build a stormtrooper army.
00:35:39.000 To not want to go spy on every citizen.
00:35:41.000 In fact, they were so understanding of that temptation, they made an amendment that said it's illegal for us to spy on you.
00:35:48.000 It's illegal for us to put stormtroopers in your home, the Third Amendment.
00:35:51.000 It's illegal for us to take your weapons.
00:35:53.000 It's illegal for us to tell you that you can't speak their rules for the government, not for you.
00:35:57.000 But do you think for a second that these Democrats actually want no police?
00:36:02.000 No.
00:36:03.000 This whole thing is trying to build a national narrative that when they introduce a bill to Congress to nationalize the police force, they'll be able to look like moderates for all the suburban soccer moms and say, well, at least we get police, but they have to go through critical race theory training.
00:36:18.000 They have to go through diversity, inclusion, and equity training.
00:36:20.000 But they are going to work for the Democrat Party and not for you.
00:36:23.000 The end of local police is coming unless we do something about it.
00:36:26.000 And that is the true goal of the chaos Democrats.
00:36:31.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
