The Charlie Kirk Show - ThoughtCrime Ep. 1: Prideteenth, Topless at the White House, Beeping Smoke Alarms

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, happy Saturday.

00:00:01.000 A new episode, a new theme for you.

00:00:04.000 You could call it a new show.

00:00:05.000 Something we're doing every Thursday nights at 8 p.m. Eastern on Rumble, Rumble.com called Thought Crimes with Charlie Kirk and Jack Pasobic.

00:00:13.000 We also have a whole team of experts talking about things you are not allowed to talk about, like smoke detector chirp culture.

00:00:21.000 We talk about the tranny at the White House and all sorts of stuff. 1.00

00:00:26.000 It's a free-flowing conversation.

00:00:28.000 There's some rather graphic elements of this conversation, so this is not exactly homeschool friendly.

00:00:33.000 And so just giving you fair warning, trigger warning, a little R-rated here.

00:00:39.000 I do my best to referee it and I fail miserably.

00:00:42.000 But I think you'll enjoy it.

00:00:43.000 Yeah, we talk over ourselves a little bit too much.

00:00:45.000 But if you're just looking for a fun, thought-provoking, boundary-pushing venue, this is for you, Thought Crimes with Jack Pasobic and Charlie Kirk.

00:00:54.000 You can find it live every Thursday on rumble.com, R-U-M-B-L-E.com.

00:00:59.000 Get your tickets to Turning Point Actions Action Conference.

00:01:18.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:01:20.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:01:22.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:01:25.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:29.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:30.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:31.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:01:38.000 Turning point USA. 0.65

00:01:39.000 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.

00:01:48.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:51.000 Okay, welcome.

00:01:52.000 Thought crimes with Mr. Jack.

00:01:54.000 We have Tyler and Blake.

00:01:56.000 Everybody say hello.

00:01:57.000 Hello, hello.

00:01:58.000 Hello.

00:01:58.000 So everybody, welcome to this new show that we're doing.

00:02:01.000 Familiar set, but a different vibe.

00:02:04.000 Tyler's tearing apart the set while we're on our set.

00:02:07.000 And I'm going to tell you why we're running a little bit late.

00:02:10.000 It's not my fault.

00:02:11.000 It's unbelievable what's happening here.

00:02:12.000 But every Thursday at 8 p.m. Eastern, to the best of our ability to hit that with precision, Jack and I are going to have thought crime conversations.

00:02:20.000 And we have some amazing stuff in store for you tonight.

00:02:24.000 It's going to be a lot of fun.

00:02:26.000 You know Jack.

00:02:26.000 And you know me.

00:02:27.000 You know Tyler Boyer.

00:02:28.000 Blake is with us.

00:02:30.000 Very high IQ, Blake.

00:02:32.000 And we're really honored to have Blake on our team.

00:02:34.000 He's great.

00:02:35.000 And the most, let's just say, awful people in the world try to destroy Blake's life.

00:02:40.000 And we're not going to let that happen.

00:02:42.000 And Blake, welcome, man.

00:02:43.000 Thank you very much.

00:02:44.000 We love Blake and he does a great job.

00:02:44.000 Yeah.

00:02:45.000 So I'm late, by the way.

00:02:46.000 And by the way, do you guys know Road Rage is up huge in the country right now?

00:02:50.000 I mean, I live in the DC area and it's been really bad.

00:02:53.000 People are just getting shot, people have been killed.

00:02:56.000 The introduction of Californians into our society here in Arizona is unbelievable.

00:02:56.000 It's crazy.

00:03:01.000 So we're booking here.

00:03:03.000 We had another thing before this.

00:03:05.000 And we make an appropriate right-hand turn.

00:03:07.000 This is Phoenix, Arizona.

00:03:08.000 Obeying the rules of the road, as Charlie Kirk always does.

00:03:11.000 Obviously.

00:03:11.000 And this Prius, right, literally just like pulls up next to us and I'm texting.

00:03:17.000 And all of a sudden, Mikey, who's driving, is like, oh boy, this guy gets out of his car and comes up to our car and starts banging on our window because apparently we cut him off and starts jet on the door.

00:03:29.000 And like it's this whole thing.

00:03:30.000 We don't get out, but we had to take a detour because he started following us afterwards.

00:03:34.000 The Prius guy started following us?

00:03:36.000 Fentanyl uses up in Arizona.

00:03:38.000 This guy was on the spent balance.

00:03:42.000 Oh, no, this guy was, I mean, he was like wanting to murder us.

00:03:46.000 This is California.

00:03:47.000 I mean, it was, I've not seen rage in those eyes since Hillary Clinton's like final campaigns.

00:03:54.000 He's not a turning point member then.

00:03:56.000 No, this guy's not a turning point.

00:03:57.000 Not a fan.

00:03:58.000 No.

00:03:58.000 And he was actually do you think he recognized you or no?

00:04:02.000 No, he I mean what's what's funny is he was a mechanic and those muscular class guys usually really like the show and everything because you could tell he was a mechanic that drives a Prius.

00:04:09.000 Yeah, wait wait he had a mechanic uniform on though it's head there and he was like greased up a little bit Okay beard the whole thing.

00:04:17.000 Maybe it wasn't his Prius.

00:04:19.000 It might not have been his Prius but this guy was having a really bad day.

00:04:22.000 So we had to take a detour and we're late.

00:04:24.000 So we apologize, but Road Rage is up.

00:04:27.000 I got flipped off by an Amazon truck driver the other day.

00:04:31.000 Okay, well flipped off.

00:04:32.000 I mean, that's nothing new.

00:04:33.000 But getting a car at a site.

00:04:35.000 But by Amazon.

00:04:36.000 That's legit crazy.

00:04:36.000 No, that's crazy.

00:04:37.000 I've never had that happen in my life where they get out of the car and they start just pulling on your coming after you.

00:04:44.000 That's Long Beach stuff.

00:04:45.000 That's like zombie movies.

00:04:46.000 And then just like smacking on your window.

00:04:48.000 Like, holy, you've got the rage virus.

00:04:50.000 Yeah.

00:04:51.000 So anyway, so the way this show is going to work is we are kind of in the format of what is it called?

00:04:57.000 Pardon the interruption or around the horn?

00:04:59.000 Part of the interruption, right?

00:05:00.000 And by the way, just for all you guys, this is exclusively on Rumble.

00:05:03.000 So you got to download the Rumble app.

00:05:05.000 If not, it is an amazing platform.

00:05:08.000 Rumble is growing like crazy.

00:05:09.000 So we're going to go topic by topic, pardon the interruption style.

00:05:13.000 And we're going to start kind of with political stuff.

00:05:15.000 And then as time goes on, as you spend more and more time with us, we will go more into the place of saying things you are not allowed to say.

00:05:23.000 So we are going to start with really, everything will be interesting.

00:05:26.000 But by the end of this, we are going to have a deep web reveal, Jack.

00:05:30.000 I just want to say that I've spent a lot of time on 4chan trying to find stuff that Charlie's definitely never heard of before, but then also stuff that won't get me too much canceled for talking about publicly.

00:05:41.000 So we're trying to find, you know, really thread the needle.

00:05:44.000 We're going to thread the needle.

00:05:45.000 I got to give credit to the Charlie Kirk show, though.

00:05:47.000 We push the boundaries on what is acceptable pretty often.

00:05:50.000 The Overton window has been shifted.

00:05:52.000 If you saw the chats with Jack, though, it's like every other message is 4chan stuff.

00:05:58.000 Like, look what I found.

00:05:59.000 Deep web stuff.

00:06:00.000 I say we were the ones that weren't 4chan.

00:06:01.000 So there's a lot that you've missed out on.

00:06:03.000 But this is like where we set this up.

00:06:05.000 Thought crime, you're going to see a lot of stuff, and we're going to talk about a lot of stuff that...

00:06:08.000 Well, because we needed somewhere to be able to talk about these things that isn't directly tied to...

00:06:14.000 You know, we do the news of the day.

00:06:15.000 We knew the news cycle.

00:06:16.000 Let's just be honest to the audience.

00:06:18.000 This is just therapy for us.

00:06:19.000 Okay.

00:06:20.000 This is basically cathartic that we've decided to air.

00:06:24.000 We needed to have a separate.

00:06:25.000 It's a Telegram channel.

00:06:27.000 We're going to do it anyway.

00:06:28.000 So we might as well monetize it.

00:06:30.000 All right.

00:06:30.000 And by the way, we're allowed to say, since we're on Rumble, we can say tranny.

00:06:33.000 We can say climate change is vastly overrated.

00:06:36.000 The 2020 election was stolen.

00:06:37.000 Stop it, Blake.

00:06:38.000 Vaccines, probably, the mRNA vaccine probably hurts you.

00:06:42.000 What else?

00:06:43.000 I think you covered all of it.

00:06:44.000 Oh, there's a lot of people.

00:06:46.000 Oh, yeah. 0.99

00:06:47.000 Zelensky is a thug. 1.00

00:06:48.000 Tranny. 0.99

00:06:49.000 So we have a lot more to get through.

00:06:49.000 All right.

00:06:50.000 Wait, Zelensky is a tranny? 0.57

00:06:52.000 Oh, well, no, no, those are two separate things that are not necessarily.

00:06:55.000 What about Big Globe?

00:06:56.000 Are we going to take down Big Globe?

00:06:58.000 Big Globe?

00:06:59.000 The whole world might be flat.

00:06:59.000 Big Globe.

00:07:01.000 Are you saying, are we going to expose it?

00:07:04.000 Is it time to expose the?

00:07:05.000 The Earth is not flat, everybody.

00:07:06.000 No, it's time to expose the Globe Tards. 1.00

00:07:10.000 The Earth is not flat.

00:07:10.000 Let's just be clear.

00:07:12.000 This could be proof.

00:07:13.000 But it is hollow.

00:07:14.000 No, it's not.

00:07:15.000 If the Earth was not flat, why doesn't the water fall off?

00:07:18.000 All right, let's start with the first topic, everybody.

00:07:20.000 No answers.

00:07:21.000 My G-O-P.

00:07:23.000 All right.

00:07:23.000 So I sent out a tweet minutes after the indictment of Donald Trump was announced last week.

00:07:29.000 And I said, hey, everybody should suspend their campaign.

00:07:31.000 Go down to Florida.

00:07:32.000 I was mocked by a lot of DeSantis influencers.

00:07:35.000 I was mocked by a lot of normie folks.

00:07:37.000 And it turns out that I think I was onto something, if I may say so myself.

00:07:41.000 Vivek Ramaswamy was there and received a lot of coverage.

00:07:46.000 Where was everybody?

00:07:48.000 Tyler Boyer, where were the Republicans on that famous day?

00:07:51.000 This was Asa Hutchinson.

00:07:54.000 He was the only person that yelled at Euphro.

00:07:56.000 Right.

00:07:57.000 He doesn't have followers.

00:07:58.000 That was the only guy.

00:08:00.000 Where was Chris Christie?

00:08:01.000 Chris Christie, if they would have shut down the Duck and Donuts, if they would have indicted the Dunkin' Donuts manager in New Jersey, so here.

00:08:09.000 So we actually went through.

00:08:11.000 Well, so Charlie, here's what we did.

00:08:13.000 So we actually went over a post-millennial, and they put together a great report on just, hey, where was everybody today?

00:08:21.000 Where were they?

00:08:22.000 Governor Ron DeSantis, very interestingly, and I hadn't even noticed this until as much as I'm on Twitter, right?

00:08:29.000 That until I noticed, he took the day off of social media.

00:08:33.000 He was completely absent.

00:08:34.000 He went black on social.

00:08:36.000 So no tweets.

00:08:38.000 I mean, he had put out a statement earlier, to be fair, but he took the entire day off of social media, which was very, I would say, interesting, especially in this environment, especially with the heavy lift that he's trying to do to capture Trump voters and then eventually hope to surpass Donald Trump in the polls that he wasn't, he wasn't president at all.

00:08:57.000 Mike Pence sat down at the Wall Street Journal in New York for a Wall Street Journal round robin interview.

00:09:03.000 Nikki Haley, Newport Beach for a $1,000 a plate fundraiser.

00:09:08.000 Asa Hutchinson on ABC, every conservative's favorite ABC. 0.60

00:09:12.000 Chris Christie, Town Hall, again, with the only network the conservatives love more than ABC, CNN, of course, calling Trump a three-time loser.

00:09:21.000 And Senator Tim Scott decided to win over new voters in the state that he already represents.

00:09:26.000 He stayed home in South Carolina.

00:09:27.000 But I mean, let's just play this out.

00:09:29.000 So let's pretend for a second that we were all senior advisors to the Ron DeSantis campaign.

00:09:34.000 I'm sorry that the feed keeps on freezing.

00:09:37.000 We're getting a lot of emails on it.

00:09:38.000 We're doing our best to fix that.

00:09:40.000 So let's pretend we were advising Governor Ron DeSantis.

00:09:46.000 How easy it would have been for DeSantis to show up and say, I'm not going to put up with this in my state. 0.97

00:09:52.000 This is a bunch of nonsense. 0.97

00:09:54.000 And I don't like Trump. 0.80

00:09:55.000 What was he doing that was possibly more important?

00:09:58.000 There were 1,000 cameras there.

00:10:01.000 What was he doing?

00:10:02.000 Being afraid.

00:10:03.000 What is he afraid of, Blake?

00:10:04.000 Well, his entire strategy is that he seems to have the plan that eventually Donald Trump will just come out and say that he has to return to his home planet now and then just ascend off stage.

00:10:15.000 I argue that's what happened to David Bowie.

00:10:17.000 Quite possibly, quite possibly.

00:10:18.000 But he doesn't die.

00:10:20.000 He just went home.

00:10:21.000 He just, he doesn't want to be too close to Trump, probably because Trump will be far more charismatic than him.

00:10:28.000 And so he can't, but he can't really just denounce Trump because his entire thing is like, well, I'm also very MAGA.

00:10:34.000 I can be Trumpism without Trump.

00:10:36.000 So he can't trash him too hard.

00:10:38.000 So he just seems to be very terrified that he just seems to just hide from Trump.

00:10:44.000 And it's like very obvious at this point.

00:10:46.000 Tyler, your thought.

00:10:47.000 Well, I was just going to say, this just shows this is the reason why Trump is on pace to win in a big way is because literally, even after eight years, basically, of this, no one in the GOP has learned what the grassroots appreciates and loves.

00:11:04.000 And then this is bigger than this.

00:11:06.000 This is the reason why you tweeted what you tweeted.

00:11:08.000 It has nothing to do with Trump.

00:11:09.000 It's bigger than Trump.

00:11:10.000 It's anybody is that when you understand what the grassroots loves and they want, they hate certain things.

00:11:15.000 They hate certain people.

00:11:16.000 They hate certain pieces to what American culture has turned into, American society has turned into.

00:11:22.000 Trump represents to them everything that's opposed to that.

00:11:27.000 He's breaking all of that.

00:11:28.000 He's sledgehammering all of that.

00:11:30.000 But it's not just Trump.

00:11:31.000 It could be a lot of different people.

00:11:32.000 And none of these people get it.

00:11:35.000 And this is the reason why they're not going to, they're not going to grab enough of the vote to challenge Trump in this primary.

00:11:42.000 I would dissent from that a little bit, which is I think they are correct to intuit that if they hug really closely to Trump, you can't really have a presidential case that is like the world is at war with Trump.

00:11:54.000 The Justice Department is at war with Trump.

00:11:56.000 Trump represents the GOP base in every way possible.

00:11:59.000 Trump did nothing wrong.

00:12:01.000 By the way, you should nominate me for president.

00:12:03.000 I disagree.

00:12:04.000 I think Vivek's like outperforming a vice president.

00:12:08.000 I think the base is in love with Trump because they see him as a symbol.

00:12:10.000 They've attached him.

00:12:11.000 They've grown in an actual relationship with Trump in a good way.

00:12:16.000 But I think that if all of a sudden Governor DeSantis thinks he's going to win over voters by kind of being a chamber of commerce-style candidate, it's just not going to work.

00:12:27.000 And he's been a good governor.

00:12:29.000 I agree on that.

00:12:30.000 I just think that the way he would have to be able to attack Trump in a more significant way.

00:12:36.000 The most significant way to attack Trump is listen to the grassroots.

00:12:39.000 Every coffee that you'll do, the grassroots, every, you know what they'll tell you?

00:12:42.000 I love Trump, but I didn't love the people he selected.

00:12:44.000 That's an effective attack vector.

00:12:46.000 Or I didn't like his tweets was the one I heard all the time.

00:12:48.000 Oh, yeah.

00:12:49.000 I mean, but what people do love about Trump is they love his enemies, meaning they think he's validated by the people who want to crush him.

00:12:58.000 Yeah.

00:12:58.000 And so the grassroots, people watching this show, and Tyler knows this, he deals it every day, that they have, they're constantly, their heads on a swivel looking for who's going to betray them next.

00:13:10.000 Yeah.

00:13:11.000 They're constantly, like, it's a paranoid attitude, but that's just the way it is.

00:13:15.000 It's like they expect it.

00:13:17.000 They expect to be betrayed.

00:13:18.000 And so if you're a person that's going to even sit silently while they feel like they're being betrayed, then you're just not going to, you're not going to gain any traction at all at the grassroots.

00:13:28.000 Well, this gets to a deeper thing, which is probably no one is going to get traction with the grassroots because they're like addicted to Trump in a way that they're not for any other candidate who's ever been around in our lifetimes.

00:13:39.000 And it will probably just remain that way until Trump returns to his home planet.

00:13:43.000 Yeah, I mean, and that megadonia.

00:13:45.000 So therefore, if you're going to run for the presidency, do so in a smart way.

00:13:50.000 And I mean, I think Governor DeSantis' tone has been totally wrong.

00:13:54.000 It should be, there's a lot we love about Trump.

00:13:55.000 I don't like his personnel selections, didn't like Operation Work Speed, and it's too much drama.

00:14:00.000 But I think it's super wrong what's happening in this DOJ attack.

00:14:02.000 And instead, let's play a piece of tape here.

00:14:05.000 You know, this is his tone, which is, it just sounds like a Dodge, right?

00:14:09.000 So Play Cut 83, my mission is to bring accountability to politicized agencies like DOJ and FBI, Play Cut 83.

00:14:18.000 Well, I've addressed it many times, and I'm happy to say again.

00:14:22.000 You know, my mission is to bring accountability to politicized agencies like DOJ, FBI.

00:14:31.000 We're going to excise the political bio and we are going to end the weaponization of the federal government.

00:14:40.000 We're going to do that.

00:14:42.000 All right.

00:14:42.000 Well, all six people at that campaign stop really.

00:14:44.000 It's about the audio there.

00:14:46.000 Like, he has a microphone, but where aren't we getting that?

00:14:49.000 It's a bit clip.

00:14:50.000 I think it's somebody's phone.

00:14:52.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:14:52.000 But again, like, no, no, no, that was the clip that they shared.

00:14:55.000 Wow.

00:14:56.000 That as if this was going to be their response.

00:14:59.000 But people don't want accountability. 1.00

00:15:01.000 They want scorched earth.

00:15:03.000 It's a different tone.

00:15:05.000 That's why I think you can't really just hug to Trump.

00:15:08.000 Weirdly, I think possibly the strongest response is actually Christie because Christy goes on CNN.

00:15:15.000 He attacks Trump really aggressively.

00:15:17.000 Let me tell you what.

00:15:18.000 This is not a struggle for popularity.

00:15:19.000 This is a struggle for dominance.

00:15:21.000 Let me tell you what made Trump.

00:15:22.000 First off, Trump was a known quantity because he was on TV.

00:15:24.000 That's right.

00:15:25.000 So you just have to be a semi-known quantity, which all these presidential candidates for the most part are.

00:15:29.000 That's the reason why people know who they are.

00:15:32.000 Let me take you back to, remember boring, decrepit Martha McSally?

00:15:38.000 There was a moment in time. 1.00

00:15:40.000 No, I actually forgot to remember until you just mentioned who that is.

00:15:44.000 It took me a second to undertake.

00:15:48.000 Do you even know who she is?

00:15:50.000 I know who she is. 0.99

00:15:51.000 There was one time Martha pushed back against, while she was running for U.S. Senate against CNN.

00:15:57.000 She became a hero with the same people that supported Trump, with everything else, because there was, I can't remember what she said. 0.99

00:16:04.000 It was like in the middle of like one of the halls of Senate, and she was like, nobody likes you, or something stupid and boring like that. 0.98

00:16:11.000 And then all of a sudden, she was heroic. 0.98

00:16:14.000 And it's the same reason why Kerry, I don't know if you remember this, when Carrie was running here, she stuck her finger in the face of that CNN reporter.

00:16:21.000 Oh, yeah.

00:16:21.000 And people went bonkers.

00:16:23.000 And then she goes, oh, I got to do this more.

00:16:26.000 She got me.

00:16:27.000 And I'm telling you, this is what made Trump.

00:16:30.000 When Trump got on stage here in Arizona in July of 2015, when we hosted him here for the first time, and he started attacking this like massive core of press that was there and did it.

00:16:40.000 And then all of a sudden the crowd started going, like getting more and more excited and more into it.

00:16:45.000 He picked up something that he never let go of.

00:16:47.000 But remember that Trump also did this to the other candidates.

00:16:50.000 And that was also what made it very famous.

00:16:52.000 But forget all that.

00:16:54.000 Focus on what people hate.

00:16:57.000 And people, they sort of hate the candidates, right?

00:17:00.000 And they know there's people that, like Charlie put it, that are going to betray them constantly.

00:17:05.000 But they know the media betrays them.

00:17:07.000 So they hate the media.

00:17:08.000 They know the parties betray them.

00:17:09.000 So they hate the parties.

00:17:10.000 Exactly.

00:17:11.000 There's three or four different things within American culture that people hate.

00:17:14.000 And it's not just Republicans.

00:17:16.000 It's a lot of Democrats and it's most independent.

00:17:18.000 They just, they like the dominance display.

00:17:21.000 Well, no, there is an alpha component.

00:17:22.000 You're not wrong with that.

00:17:24.000 I think we're all right.

00:17:25.000 But the grassroots right now, if you look at the pattern that they've seen, right?

00:17:30.000 So they were like, wow.

00:17:32.000 Okay.

00:17:32.000 So Trump wasn't supposed to win the nomination and he did.

00:17:34.000 He won a surprise election.

00:17:35.000 They got their hopes up and they saw his presidency largely obliterated by unelected media, unelected left-wing activists, unelected bureaucrats.

00:17:45.000 And so they grew in resentment.

00:17:47.000 So I got to say the grassroots, they are more in tune with the kind of sinister aspects of the administrative state than any time I've seen them, right?

00:17:55.000 Like ever.

00:17:57.000 And whether this is good or bad, like you could come on either side of this.

00:18:00.000 And by the way, Blake's our resident contrarian thinker, by the way, just so you know.

00:18:03.000 He went to Dartmouth and he's very sophisticated.

00:18:06.000 I don't pronounce it that way.

00:18:07.000 Well, I do.

00:18:08.000 So, but he's right out there with Arizona State with me.

00:18:12.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:18:14.000 By the way, ASU is probably much better school.

00:18:16.000 Harvard or the West.

00:18:17.000 Yeah, I would trust an ASU grad over a Dartmouth grad any day.

00:18:22.000 I would trust someone without a degree over a year.

00:18:23.000 Well, there you go.

00:18:24.000 That's me.

00:18:25.000 So, but let me, but to understand if you're like a previous driving mechanic, thankfully I'm still alive.

00:18:31.000 I was talking to some left-wing guy the other day, and he said, Charlie, help me understand why people like Trump so much.

00:18:37.000 And it's a complicated thing.

00:18:38.000 Tyler's right.

00:18:38.000 He had 30 years of just built up brand ID.

00:18:42.000 The alpha male thing is part of it.

00:18:43.000 But what I think Governor DeSantis is missing is the rage, the fury, the anger, the contempt, and the thirst for revenge that the conservative grassroots have towards the FBI, the DOJ, and the media.

00:18:57.000 And they don't want happy talk.

00:18:59.000 They don't want policy proposals.

00:19:01.000 They want Dresden. 0.91

00:19:03.000 Well, and Reagan had a unique ability to subjugate the media by joking with them.

00:19:12.000 Trump has what they want.

00:19:14.000 They want Dresden. 0.91

00:19:15.000 But they do want to be so dark.

00:19:19.000 I think this new day on CNN, Jack, want Dresden.

00:19:23.000 I don't disagree that there's a tone and tenor thing that doesn't jive with everybody that's out there.

00:19:29.000 I think there's like a happy medium between like a Reagan subjugation of the media and like a Trump subjugation of the media.

00:19:36.000 And I think that that's like the ideal candidate.

00:19:38.000 I think the point is, is that nobody right now in the field is doing anything anywhere close to any of those guys.

00:19:45.000 And this is the reason why Trump's like pummeling and stuff is, and no one's ever going to come off Trump, which by the way, this is just my opinion.

00:19:52.000 I told Charlie this and Andrew this today.

00:19:54.000 It's like, you have to win conservative votes to win the nomination.

00:19:57.000 This is not that hard to find.

00:19:58.000 This is a primary.

00:19:59.000 This is not like a general 100,000 people vote in the Iowa.

00:20:03.000 Every conservative is voting for Trump right now.

00:20:05.000 Well, maybe a little bit more.

00:20:06.000 It's like 140,000.

00:20:07.000 And in a general, millions will vote.

00:20:09.000 Like, you have a thought you want to chime in here.

00:20:11.000 Well, I was just saying, you know, it is true that they want scorched earth and all of these enemies, but I do think we underrate how much of it is sort of the entertainment, like on-air, like WWE type aspect to it.

00:20:25.000 Because everyone's much more excited about Trump's showdown with CNN, with Caitlin Collins, than they were about anything DeSantis has done that made people really upset in Florida, where he's like, I'm going to blow up Disney, but it's not going to be quite as highly televised.

00:20:41.000 Well, we thought that t-shirt today, what did it say?

00:20:43.000 Charlie.

00:20:44.000 Stop.

00:20:45.000 Man, what was that all about?

00:20:46.000 Ron DeSantis is selling a new t-shirt.

00:20:49.000 Oh, that was bad.

00:20:50.000 Literally on his merch store.

00:20:52.000 I thought it was someone trolling him.

00:20:53.000 And I got to say it, hold on.

00:20:54.000 On the back of the shirt, it says, stop pussyfooting around, Governor Ron DeSantis.

00:21:00.000 That's a real thing.

00:21:00.000 He picked a different name for it.

00:21:02.000 There's, all right, like, I can break down the sort of meme analysis of this in real time.

00:21:08.000 And I've only looked at this like once or twice.

00:21:09.000 Do we have the actual, can we get that up?

00:21:11.000 No, it was in that other chat.

00:21:13.000 It was in the judgment day chat.

00:21:14.000 Oh, no, no, I mean, it's for the audience.

00:21:16.000 That's a screenshot.

00:21:19.000 So the, okay, there's a couple things here.

00:21:22.000 Number one, you can't force meme your own taglines and catchphrases.

00:21:28.000 Exactly.

00:21:29.000 So you can't say something one day.

00:21:31.000 You can't make fetch happen.

00:21:32.000 That's the meme thing.

00:21:33.000 You can't say something in the morning.

00:21:35.000 And so I can break down.

00:21:36.000 So he cut this, you know, in pro wrestling, you would say he cut in pro wrestling.

00:21:40.000 And then can you zoom?

00:21:41.000 Is it possible to zoom in, like zoom and enhance on the actual backside of the thing?

00:21:47.000 So forced.

00:21:49.000 He said this to Newsom, and he was saying that Newsom should stop pussyfooting around to come.

00:21:54.000 But okay, there's a couple aspects of why this is a bad, really, really bad meme.

00:21:59.000 And actually, it's so bad it becomes actually a negative meme towards DeSantis.

00:22:05.000 Because number one, you cannot force a meme.

00:22:08.000 You cannot make something fun.

00:22:09.000 You cannot make something interesting.

00:22:11.000 Charlie rules radicals, right?

00:22:13.000 Do use tactics that your people like.

00:22:16.000 Yes, use the tactics.

00:22:17.000 This only works if your fans are making the t-shirts.

00:22:19.000 That's an important out of nothing.

00:22:23.000 Right.

00:22:23.000 And it happens hat out of the zeitgeist and tears and vapor on the horizon.

00:22:27.000 And people want to talk about, and now, obviously, Make America Great Again was something that Trump came up with.

00:22:34.000 But at the same time, I mean, that's lightning in a bottle, right?

00:22:37.000 That's not necessarily something you can just randomly come up with on a, what is it, Thursday morning?

00:22:42.000 That's number one.

00:22:43.000 Number two, when you're putting something on a t-shirt like that, if it's something like Let's Go Brandon, which got so big and so organic, then you can put something.

00:22:54.000 Here's what I'm trying to say, though.

00:22:55.000 People understood the context.

00:22:57.000 People understood the joke because it got so big first.

00:23:01.000 So people didn't lead with Let's Go Brandon t-shirts and wrapping paper and everything else.

00:23:06.000 That all came up after the fact.

00:23:08.000 And then eventually when the guy got Joe to actually say it on the phone, right, it became this massive meme.

00:23:13.000 It's like Baba Booey with Howard Stern.

00:23:15.000 So that's number two is that you've created a t-shirt where no, like the average person has no idea what this is.

00:23:23.000 And then number three, and I'm just going to say, okay, this is spa.

00:23:27.000 And then number three, and I'm just going to say it, like when you're putting the words stop pussyfooting around next to an image of Ron DeSantis, it's so weird.

00:23:38.000 You are co-branding your candidate with that own face.

00:23:43.000 And it's a lane.

00:23:44.000 It's a lame picture.

00:23:44.000 It's not even like a cool picture of Ron DeSantis doing something cool.

00:23:47.000 It looks like a DMV photo, like curb stomping.

00:23:49.000 Like, if he was curb stomping, this is like a passport photo. 0.88

00:23:52.000 If he was curb stomping Gavin Newsome, that would be almost kind of cool.

00:23:58.000 It's like, oh, okay, I can see why you think it's a good thing.

00:24:00.000 It looks like the kind of thing that you would make if you were against it.

00:24:05.000 That's what I'm saying.

00:24:06.000 It looks like something wrong.

00:24:07.000 It's like, okay, sir, yeah, yeah, you can come into Rome.

00:24:11.000 Like, okay, we're going to fight MAGA with Spa. 0.52

00:24:13.000 Plus, he's co-branded himself with this word potentially forever now.

00:24:20.000 Donald Trump has his own famous phrase that uses that same exact word for much more alpha than DeSantis.

00:24:28.000 That's exactly right.

00:24:29.000 So you're playing into the mentality of if DeSantis is tying himself to that word, and then Trump is so it's like, what?

00:24:36.000 Grab him by the DeSantis.

00:24:37.000 Like, it's there's so many, like, so many extrapolations on this meme.

00:24:42.000 Would it have been better not DeSantis?

00:24:44.000 I go.

00:24:45.000 I mean, out of all the criticisms you could give Donald Trump, he's on Ds.

00:24:50.000 Pussyfooting is not one of the accusations I think you can level towards Donald Trump.

00:24:55.000 Like of all the things, like quite the opposite.

00:24:58.000 Like, I mean, the guy that's getting indicted on 37 accounts and like picks fights with his former press secretary, the accusation is probably like, hey, can you calm it down a little bit?

00:25:07.000 Like, can you put that on the back of a shirt?

00:25:09.000 Like, let's bring down the temperature, Ron.

00:25:11.000 Instead, it's, I don't even know what this means.

00:25:13.000 This is what I'm saying.

00:25:14.000 This is, and we talked about this at length that I knew this was going to happen.

00:25:18.000 There's two different directions that the DeSantis campaign's going.

00:25:20.000 And this is not just DeSantis, this is everybody, where they think they have to be more Trumpian than Trump.

00:25:26.000 This is exactly right.

00:25:27.000 And nobody can, it's like you're trying to mimic a master.

00:25:31.000 Okay.

00:25:32.000 It's not going to happen.

00:25:33.000 And they're doing it all wrong.

00:25:35.000 But, and then at the same time, they're going into states and they're hanging out with moderates.

00:25:39.000 Yeah, talk about that.

00:25:40.000 So, Tyler, this is a level deeper.

00:25:42.000 We haven't examined it.

00:25:43.000 Ron DeSantis is doing meet and greets, roundtables, and coffees with not so great people.

00:25:48.000 Yeah, I mean, just moderates.

00:25:49.000 I mean, like, again, and we, we don't have to, I don't want to take us way off track here, but like 2016, Ted Cruz did everything wrong.

00:25:55.000 A lot of us really like Ted Cruz.

00:25:57.000 We still do.

00:25:58.000 You know, Ted's great.

00:26:00.000 But a lot of conservatives were supporting Ted Cruz in 2016.

00:26:04.000 And then Trump came along basically out of nowhere, did the rally here in Arizona, stole all the thunder of Ted Cruz because he was willing to say things that Ted Cruz wasn't.

00:26:13.000 And by the way, what happened?

00:26:15.000 Ted Cruz was hanging out with more establishment guys, trying to go to the center in the primary.

00:26:20.000 And this is what upset all the conservatives.

00:26:22.000 They're like, oh, okay, Trump's my guy because Ted Cruz is hanging out with nothing but moderates. 0.87

00:26:27.000 So what happened over time was all the losers dropped out.

00:26:30.000 And so naturally, Cruz all of a sudden got his campaign hijacked by moderates and establishment guys.

00:26:37.000 And that made Trump even more powerful.

00:26:40.000 And this is the direction that you're already going with Ron DeSantis because he's not even trying to get conservative votes.

00:26:48.000 He's not even trying to get conservatives peeled away from Donald Trump.

00:26:51.000 Hey, hey, hey, Tevi.

00:26:52.000 He's not pussyfooting around.

00:26:54.000 Everything, speaking of pussyfooting, it's like everything DeSantis does has the feeling that they had their dortastic strategy meeting a few days before.

00:27:03.000 And we're like, okay, we figured out this is our, you know, we're going to indulge, we're going to promote this online meme that people made up for us.

00:27:10.000 And then we're going to do that.

00:27:12.000 And then Trump just, you know, goes and spouts off, does a, you know, all traveling.

00:27:15.000 Trump goes to a waffle house.

00:27:16.000 Trump's like, Megadonia.

00:27:18.000 No one ever thinks Trump is like, you know, doing this thing because he's trying to triangulate because of a strategy.

00:27:23.000 Some people think that.

00:27:24.000 And that means they haven't spent any time around the Trump campaign.

00:27:27.000 It's always a plan.

00:27:28.000 It's no plan.

00:27:30.000 Trust me.

00:27:31.000 Charlie Patriots in control.

00:27:33.000 It's a tornado.

00:27:34.000 The storm is here.

00:27:36.000 We couldn't order a pizza in the 2016 campaign.

00:27:39.000 There is no plan.

00:27:40.000 There's blessing, providence, and luck.

00:27:43.000 There's no plan.

00:27:44.000 But but this is to your point.

00:27:45.000 This is like the weird situation.

00:27:47.000 They have a stop pussyfooting around t-shirt.

00:27:50.000 Meanwhile, they're actually campaigning in a very pussyfoot type of a way that is not going, you're not going to win.

00:27:56.000 It's just such a weird juxtaposition.

00:27:58.000 There's a phrase in writing, there's a phrase in theater, Hollywood, whatever you call it.

00:28:04.000 Show don't tell.

00:28:06.000 Don't tell me that you're a fighter.

00:28:08.000 Don't tell me the money, as Jerry Maguire would say.

00:28:11.000 Yeah, show me.

00:28:12.000 Let me show you this as a nice segue as we go to the next topic regarding Tucker Carlson.

00:28:17.000 But if you guys could zoom in on me really quick, it actually is necessary for what I'm going to say.

00:28:21.000 Let's see who shows up at Turning Points Action Conference for all of you in the audience.

00:28:26.000 We are selling tickets very quickly.

00:28:28.000 tpaction.com.

00:28:30.000 You guys can see we have Tucker Carlson, Donald Trump, Sam Bongino.

00:28:33.000 We are selling, we're on Pace to Sellout.

00:28:35.000 We're not there yet.

00:28:36.000 No, we're selling out.

00:28:37.000 Megan Kelly announced today Josh Hawley.

00:28:40.000 It's the biggest event of the year, period.

00:28:41.000 Nothing will get close to it.

00:28:42.000 You're not going to get this kind of group of people.

00:28:44.000 Well, AmFest will be great, but we're not going to talk about that right now.

00:28:47.000 Action Conference, tpaction.com.

00:28:49.000 I want to be very clear because people send us these emails.

00:28:53.000 Every Republican candidate is welcome.

00:28:55.000 We'll see who shows up.

00:28:56.000 Asa Hutchinson is welcome.

00:28:58.000 Neocon Nikki is welcome. 0.72

00:29:00.000 Right?

00:29:00.000 The governor of Florida is welcome.

00:29:02.000 Chris Christie is welcome.

00:29:05.000 So far, Donald Trump and Vivek are showing up.

00:29:07.000 Seems like the Miami delegation, as we call it.

00:29:09.000 Oh, by the way, the guy, the Miami Mayor, is running for president.

00:29:12.000 Yeah, he's welcome.

00:29:13.000 He's welcome.

00:29:13.000 He's down the street.

00:29:14.000 Did you see his logo?

00:29:15.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:29:15.000 Speaking of logos?

00:29:16.000 You'll know what my first question will be on stage if I interview him.

00:29:18.000 Who are you?

00:29:20.000 Dude, what is your name?

00:29:21.000 Wait, did you get in here?

00:29:22.000 Did you see his logo?

00:29:23.000 No, I didn't see his logo.

00:29:25.000 Is that noteworthy?

00:29:26.000 Oh, you got to see this logo.

00:29:28.000 Oh, my gosh.

00:29:30.000 Wait, by the way, I'm throwing down on that.

00:29:32.000 It's true.

00:29:33.000 It's two more names, which because I'm looking at your post.

00:29:35.000 Sure.

00:29:36.000 Scott Pressler, Mike Lindell, and Mike Lindell.

00:29:39.000 And Harmet Dylan.

00:29:39.000 And Harmeet Dillon.

00:29:40.000 And we got a bunch of electeds, by the way.

00:29:41.000 Lauren Bober.

00:29:42.000 I mean, it is the event of the summer.

00:29:43.000 Jack Sophie be there.

00:29:44.000 Steve Banner, we're doing all of our shows live.

00:29:46.000 It's going to be incredible.

00:29:47.000 tpaction.com, everybody.

00:29:49.000 TPaction.com.

00:29:50.000 Okay, the next topic here on Thought Crimes, Tucker Episode 4.

00:29:55.000 I had an opportunity to listen to it.

00:29:56.000 I haven't seen it yet.

00:29:58.000 It's, I mean, Blake, you've met Tucker before, right?

00:30:01.000 Yeah, a few times.

00:30:04.000 The guy is a talent, unlike anything I've ever seen.

00:30:07.000 I mean, and so he has a way of just pinpointing in a 10 to 15-minute way of a monologue.

00:30:15.000 It's incredible.

00:30:15.000 Let's talk more just generally Tucker stuff, okay?

00:30:18.000 Because I don't know if we've all seen his, have you seen his video?

00:30:21.000 I think it's excellent.

00:30:22.000 The want to be dictator, it's great.

00:30:23.000 But let's just turn to all of them.

00:30:24.000 Let's talk more generally.

00:30:27.000 Do you think it's been a good idea for Tucker to do these kind of Twitter videos?

00:30:32.000 How's this going to end up?

00:30:34.000 Blake, Jack, where is this going?

00:30:36.000 Is Fox going to sue Tucker?

00:30:38.000 That is the question in front of us because Tucker's basically taunting the Fox News legal.

00:30:43.000 He's basically like, hey, right here, punch me on the chin, file a lawsuit.

00:30:46.000 Is that going to happen?

00:30:47.000 So I love the Tucker's out there, and I love that he's putting himself out there.

00:30:52.000 And it's kind of like, you don't put honey in a corner.

00:30:54.000 You know, I get that.

00:30:56.000 As far as the legalities, look, I mean, that's going to come down to a lot of different things.

00:31:00.000 And I love, but again, Tuck, this is exactly what I was just saying.

00:31:04.000 Tucker is not telling me he's a fighter.

00:31:07.000 He's not having his influencers online leak to me that he's a fighter.

00:31:12.000 He's going out there and actually showing that he's willing to take it on the chin and face legal ramifications, face cease and desists, be told that he needs to shut up and refuses to.

00:31:24.000 And by the way, I do understand, even though I didn't see the episode, I saw the headline from the postmillennial that he revealed, he actually broke news on Fox that they fired or at least had to let go the producer who called Biden a want to be dictator.

00:31:40.000 Is that true?

00:31:42.000 I don't know if they fired him, they reprimanded him.

00:31:44.000 Now, if you watch the Tucker video, it's pretty remarkable because he goes after Fox completely.

00:31:49.000 I mean, gloves are all wow.

00:31:50.000 He just says, he says it was addressed.

00:31:52.000 Like, that's what the state says.

00:31:53.000 There's a couple things. 0.92

00:31:53.000 Tucker in the video says, and the women who run Fox News. 0.92

00:31:58.000 You mean the few specific people on that one?

00:32:00.000 Let's talk about Paul Ryan.

00:32:02.000 It's all about Paul Ryan.

00:32:03.000 And so let's ask a question.

00:32:04.000 Blake, is Fox News going to sue Tucker Carlson?

00:32:07.000 This is the most important question.

00:32:09.000 Yes or no?

00:32:10.000 I don't know if they will, but he's sort of picking great territory.

00:32:13.000 You know, can think of it in strategic terms, which is he's forcing them to either basically say it's okay for him to do this and he can then expand on it, or you have to sue me.

00:32:22.000 And what he's doing is he's making this more painful for Fox because they already took the hit on we fired our most popular host and a bunch of our numbers are down.

00:32:31.000 Our numbers are down.

00:32:33.000 And they're thinking, their thought was people will forget about this and go over it.

00:32:36.000 We're Fox.

00:32:37.000 They're not going to go anywhere else.

00:32:38.000 And he's instead going to say, no, I'm going to try to make you sue me so that every single day there are new news hits of, oh, Fox's latest attack on our super popular former host.

00:32:49.000 And he's like, I'm going to drag this out months on end, years on end, or you guys can cut a deal and let me go and we can make the pain go away.

00:32:57.000 And so I think it's very important.

00:32:59.000 He's put Fox in a really tough spot, right?

00:33:02.000 Because if Fox, so the best case scenario for Fox is they get a what is it called emergency declaration, Blake, or whatever, a judge, emergency injunction?

00:33:12.000 Injunction.

00:33:12.000 Thank you.

00:33:12.000 That's what I'm looking for.

00:33:13.000 That they could shut him up through like basically an injunction.

00:33:16.000 That is conceivable.

00:33:16.000 Yes.

00:33:18.000 However, but that would still take time.

00:33:20.000 No, that's not true.

00:33:21.000 You can get it almost immediately.

00:33:22.000 Like you could take a day or two.

00:33:23.000 However, because you could come in as like, hey, it's an immediate breach of contract.

00:33:27.000 And they could potentially say immediate harm.

00:33:30.000 But the harm to Fox that they would do to themselves, Jack, if they go to a court, he's going to war with Fox over the audience.

00:33:40.000 Yeah, you know, it's almost, I want to make sure I get my analogies and metaphors right, so I'm not going to say that, but it's almost like he's taunting them to shoot their own network in the head.

00:33:51.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:33:52.000 That's basically what they're doing, right?

00:33:53.000 What he's doing.

00:33:54.000 He's got some smart lawyers helping him.

00:33:56.000 He does.

00:33:57.000 Harmeed.

00:33:58.000 Our good friend Harmeed Dylan and a number of individuals that are helping him.

00:34:02.000 And I think that Tucker's going to come out way on top on this thing.

00:34:07.000 Yeah, because now he has him in a situation where Fox has a decision.

00:34:09.000 You ignore Tucker and he's allowed to do his Twitter thing, which is reaching literally tens of millions of people.

00:34:15.000 100 million on all of them so far.

00:34:16.000 It's unbelievable.

00:34:17.000 Meanwhile, Fox is sinking.

00:34:19.000 So then Fox is sinking.

00:34:20.000 So the Fox News Legal Department, they might say, screw it, file the lawsuit, go after the injunction.

00:34:25.000 So then there will be a document, Fox, you know, Fox News Corporation v. Tucker Carlson.

00:34:32.000 And a judge might, might, no guarantee, grant an emergency injunction.

00:34:36.000 But then it gets hairy.

00:34:38.000 What does he do then?

00:34:39.000 What if Tucker ignores the injunction?

00:34:41.000 Well, that's the Fox is going to send him to jail?

00:34:43.000 Well, a judge could, not just Fox.

00:34:45.000 But yeah, I mean, at that point, you're ignoring a judge, right?

00:34:47.000 So then he's got to be careful because then you could actually get prisoners.

00:34:49.000 The likelihood of that happening is probably.

00:34:51.000 But then he could sue the, he could appeal the injunction and say it's a First Amendment thing.

00:34:56.000 Tucker could say he's running for dog catcher, which I think he should say he's running for like mayor of Bryant Pond, Maine, because then it's protected political speech, right?

00:35:04.000 I'm running for mosquito abatement district director.

00:35:07.000 Then all of a sudden it's protected political speech.

00:35:09.000 I'm not kidding, right?

00:35:10.000 Because then a judge will be like, well, you're running to go be, you know, the grass cutter. 0.93

00:35:17.000 I can't get in the way of it.

00:35:18.000 You should just like run for school district and like be a school board member in the main.

00:35:21.000 And my number one issue is making sure we don't go to war in Iran.

00:35:21.000 That's so funny.

00:35:25.000 Exactly.

00:35:26.000 My number one issue for Bryant Pond, Maine is to make sure that Zelensky gets tried for war crimes. 0.86

00:35:32.000 Like, what?

00:35:33.000 I mean, if Alex Dine can make a whole career out of appearing at these boards.

00:35:38.000 No, but I'm half kidding.

00:35:39.000 Is like that's actually something he could no joke he could do in front of a judge that could get him First Amendment protection.

00:35:44.000 But what's most important in this whole thing, Charlie, is that the more that Fox fights this, the less popular.

00:35:51.000 He knows that, though.

00:35:52.000 So that's the little specialty.

00:35:54.000 Let's say they get a muzzle on him.

00:35:55.000 Let's say they get an injunction.

00:35:57.000 Well, then Tucker can counter sue, but then also he gets discovery.

00:36:00.000 Right.

00:36:00.000 Yeah.

00:36:01.000 And then he gets to basically be like, I'm being sued by Fox.

00:36:04.000 I don't think their 8 p.m. hour is going to improve with time if they're in active lawsuit against Tucker. 0.89

00:36:10.000 And the fact he's done the Twitter thing, he's kind of going to make them seem like jerks and other words if they now do it. 0.80

00:36:17.000 And by the way, there's unlimited ways you control them. 0.89

00:36:19.000 Like, oh, they get an injunction on Tucker.

00:36:21.000 So he just hires some badly acted lookalike to like deliver the monologue he wrote on his behalf.

00:36:29.000 It's even worse than that for Fox because they've emboldened someone like Harmee Dylan, who has a significant following now at this point.

00:36:37.000 She's well respected.

00:36:39.000 She's really well versed.

00:36:40.000 They could put together a press conference every single day if they want to via Harmeet.

00:36:46.000 And she can talk all day long.

00:36:48.000 And guess what?

00:36:49.000 She will get better numbers herself than Fox is getting.

00:36:53.000 So Fox is putting themselves in a really bad position here because everybody's going to want to track this whole thing and they want to come at Fox with knives.

00:37:00.000 And everybody's going to want to watch what Tucker is saying at the same time.

00:37:03.000 Tucker do like a silent collage where he just holds like a sign up with writing on it, like those videos Libs would do on the whole.

00:37:10.000 It's like a hospital video.

00:37:12.000 I'm not allowed to talk.

00:37:13.000 I'm not allowed to talk.

00:37:14.000 I'm here.

00:37:14.000 I am.

00:37:15.000 Or we'll do AI Tucker.

00:37:16.000 Muzzled and La War in Ukraine. 0.86

00:37:18.000 What if we did AI Tucker?

00:37:20.000 Yeah, I like AI Tucker.

00:37:21.000 So we can just write his monologue and then it goes to AI Tucker and then Tucker delivers the monologue.

00:37:27.000 He could be fishing the whole time.

00:37:28.000 He could literally just be fishing.

00:37:29.000 He could just put it all into the thing.

00:37:31.000 It's technically not Tucker.

00:37:32.000 But the thing is, no, that's not Tucker.

00:37:33.000 That's AI Tucker.

00:37:34.000 Okay, I want to get so Jack, but there's a new wrinkle here.

00:37:38.000 Matt Walsh tweeted something interesting.

00:37:41.000 What is that?

00:37:42.000 Well, this is certainly the type of thing that we wouldn't normally be able to talk about.

00:37:47.000 But here we are on Thought Crime, and we can talk about this now.

00:37:50.000 Matt Malsh has tweeted that they obtained, the Daily Wire obtained internal documents from Fox News employees that Fox Corp is celebrating Pride Month by encouraging employees to read about, quote, glory holes, supporting a group that gives sterilization hormones to homeless youth and deployed woke AI to monitor everyone.

00:38:16.000 What is a glory hole?

00:38:18.000 I want to see if there's an actual definition here.

00:38:23.000 Is this something that is considered to be commonplace knowledge?

00:38:28.000 I think there was a senator.

00:38:33.000 It is a circle of sexual paraphernalia, I guess you could say.

00:38:38.000 No, I don't want those websites.

00:38:39.000 Is it a language or something up there?

00:38:42.000 I think there's a certain senator from his browser.

00:38:45.000 It's off the cookies.

00:38:47.000 Google knows about this forever. 1.00

00:38:48.000 Your ass are going to be like that for the rest of time. 1.00

00:38:51.000 Disgusting. 1.00

00:38:51.000 Wait, Charlie, how did that come right up for you like that? 1.00

00:38:54.000 I typed it in because I'm like, I thought we had blocks on this.

00:38:57.000 I thought we had blocks here.

00:38:58.000 On this internet.

00:38:59.000 I don't understand.

00:39:00.000 Wait, so then why is Foxy's subsidizing glory holes for their employees?

00:39:06.000 There was a U.S. senator from Idaho who got into big trouble for this.

00:39:10.000 I think the toe tapped at airports.

00:39:14.000 It was like they encouraged all these books you could read for Pride.

00:39:17.000 And of course, it's exactly like the stuff they want in all of our kindergarten libraries.

00:39:20.000 So this book is like, you know, so the books are like, don't Google it, Susie.

00:39:25.000 Red, white, and royal blue.

00:39:27.000 Ferris, a memoir about a precocious boy with albinism.

00:39:32.000 Julian decides to dazzle the world after seeing marvelously dressed mermaids because Julian decides to become a unicorn.

00:39:42.000 The ease of living as an LGBTQI.

00:39:45.000 This is the reading list. 0.99

00:39:46.000 Disgusting. 0.98

00:39:47.000 Listening to the podcast query with Cameron Esposito for telling this, retelling the stories of forgotten black queer leaders. 0.99

00:39:58.000 And it goes through everyone's favorite black queer leaders.

00:40:01.000 And they go through, oh, here it. 0.86

00:40:03.000 Okay, let me see if I can read this line.

00:40:07.000 I don't know, Tyler, what do you think?

00:40:08.000 Can I read this line?

00:40:09.000 This sounds like the Charlie Kirk show.

00:40:11.000 Like, I'm sorry, what's a glory hole? I asked.

00:40:14.000 It is an opening.

00:40:15.000 It is an opening drilled into the side of a restroom stall.

00:40:20.000 Not to look through.

00:40:22.000 And it is used not for your eyes.

00:40:25.000 It is used for something else because I definitely can't read that next line.

00:40:28.000 This is the Foxt-induced endorsed book.

00:40:33.000 Also details the author's graphic depiction of using said glory hole.

00:40:39.000 It goes through, you know, a bunch of it is like calling America a genocidal empire, more erotica from the LGBTQ perspective, and a number of them, which it's very strange.

00:40:53.000 Is this part of their employee manual?

00:40:55.000 It's how they're encouraged to celebrate.

00:40:57.000 Actually, now it's part of the Constitution.

00:40:59.000 It is.

00:41:00.000 Yeah.

00:41:01.000 You know, they're changing the American flag.

00:41:04.000 Article 9 will be the glory hole amendment.

00:41:07.000 We're going to re-release the Declaration of Independence.

00:41:09.000 We hold these truths to be self-evident.

00:41:11.000 I got out of the shower and took another towel to dry off, then tried to find a receptacle for my old boy.

00:41:18.000 So what is Fox's attachment with this again? 0.94

00:41:20.000 Their HR is like pushing all this crap for HR to reading the world.

00:41:26.000 So when you log into it, so when you log into your the way I get this is that they have an internal you know HR portal.

00:41:34.000 It's the kind of place where you would go if you work in the corporate world where you'd check your hours, check your benefits, that kind of thing, health insurance.

00:41:41.000 But in this case, 401k may be a baby tied in.

00:41:44.000 But in this case, on Fox, they have a Pride section.

00:41:47.000 And when you click through the Pride section, so it looks like somebody went through and just screenshotted a bunch of stuff that's in the Pride section of Fox's HR portal.

00:41:57.000 Well, the crazy part is this is like, how do we go from Rogerville here, right?

00:42:03.000 Right, yeah, exactly.

00:42:04.000 To like where they're like, everything that went on at Fox or whatever, to like their push.

00:42:11.000 How is this passing the HR sex test of like pushing on people like, we should investigate more glory holes on campus here? 1.00

00:42:22.000 You know, you know, after everything that Fox is like, if you're one of the women that sued Fox, didn't they have like a whole issue with hypersexualized corporate culture? 1.00

00:42:34.000 And now they have glory holes. 0.98

00:42:36.000 Wait a minute.

00:42:37.000 Exactly.

00:42:38.000 We're going to come full circle here.

00:42:39.000 And now we're going to go. 0.97

00:42:40.000 It's just this is Pride sex books. 0.98

00:42:43.000 We're focused on all of these dirty Pride Month books about glory holes that Fox is promoting to their employees. 0.77

00:42:50.000 But nobody's talking about the literally tens of thousands of Pride Month Glory Hole books that Fox is not promoting to their employees.

00:42:56.000 Okay.

00:42:59.000 All right. 0.59

00:42:59.000 That's a perfect segue to the strip club, otherwise known as the White House. 0.59

00:43:06.000 So the White House last weekend had a Pride event and a tranny came by the name of Rose Montoya, now banned from the White House after backlash. 0.99

00:43:20.000 Talk about how bad you have to be to get banned from the White House as a tranny. 1.00

00:43:24.000 I mean, this is definitely a place that has lots of glory holes that have been carved into it.

00:43:29.000 I mean, this is the White House has gone a long way.

00:43:33.000 This is worse than the Lincoln bedroom.

00:43:34.000 Oh, this is worse.

00:43:35.000 This is worse.

00:43:35.000 This is far worse.

00:43:36.000 The Lincoln bedroom has a lot of holes in it now.

00:43:38.000 Right. 0.94

00:43:39.000 So, this Montoya, who is a man, took off his clothes, cupping his breasts, fake breasts, after meeting Biden on the South Wall. 0.54

00:43:53.000 We have the clip for it. 0.89

00:43:54.000 So, could use a glory hole then.

00:43:56.000 Play cut 81.

00:43:57.000 This is for the uninitiated.

00:44:03.000 Are we topist at the White House?

00:44:12.000 Okay, so I'm upset.

00:44:19.000 They're having way too much fun back there.

00:44:20.000 I'm upset because that's the same lawn that President Trump stuck that candy bar in that kid's head that was that was dressed up as a minion.

00:44:28.000 Oh, the minion one.

00:44:29.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:44:29.000 I remember that.

00:44:30.000 And now it's been degraded that lawn.

00:44:33.000 Magical things happened on that lawn, and now it's just a worthless lawn.

00:44:37.000 So, no one should ever return.

00:44:39.000 So, now this has gone further viral where Jesse Kelly and Buck Travis have come out and they say that they found this man attractive.

00:44:48.000 Clay Travis, whatever.

00:44:50.000 They found this man attractive.

00:44:52.000 Wait, wait, wait, hold on.

00:44:53.000 All right.

00:44:54.000 All right.

00:44:54.000 I saw those tweets.

00:44:55.000 Maybe they're being joking around. 0.61

00:44:56.000 That had to be a troll.

00:44:57.000 No, no, no.

00:44:58.000 But there were a lot of boomers on Twitter. 0.88

00:45:02.000 I saw them who thought that was a woman and they were like, oh, lay off.

00:45:07.000 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:45:09.000 We have that as 86 if we want to bring that.

00:45:11.000 I'm really offended by Tom.

00:45:12.000 Even if we look at this tweet, I'm offended by all you boomers. 1.00

00:45:15.000 All right, Jesse Kelly says that tranny that flashed everyone at the White House looked pretty good, and I'm tired of pretending he didn't. 0.98

00:45:23.000 If you follow Jesse Kelly on Twitter, I don't know. 0.72

00:45:25.000 He's he's pretty trolly. 0.98

00:45:27.000 But then I don't really follow Clay Travis, but he responds, I'm with you, great boobs. 0.96

00:45:33.000 And I don't think I'd know that was a dude. 0.78

00:45:38.000 As a First Amendment and boobs guy, this entire story has me totally shook.

00:45:43.000 All right, the line totally shook right there seems to be like a giveaway that you know that it's some kind of troll.

00:45:50.000 Well, I don't think so.

00:45:51.000 I have a question.

00:45:51.000 What's the First Amendment?

00:45:52.000 I don't have to do it.

00:45:53.000 I think you need to be clear.

00:45:54.000 As a First Amendment, I don't understand what the First Amendment has to do with this.

00:45:57.000 Yeah, some people are born without a sense of humor, Charlie.

00:46:00.000 And I don't get if that's supposed to be a joke.

00:46:03.000 I'm not really sure where that is.

00:46:04.000 Is he saying, like, as if someone who's like neutral on the porn issue?

00:46:07.000 Is that what he's doing?

00:46:09.000 I think he's neutral on boobs issues.

00:46:11.000 Breastfeeding. 0.82

00:46:12.000 Look, look, even if it's also tranny. 0.99

00:46:14.000 Even if you're a guy that's a boobs guy. 0.99

00:46:16.000 He can't breastfeed. 0.98

00:46:17.000 Okay, even.

00:46:18.000 Oh, we have a segment about that next week.

00:46:20.000 No, no, I got into that with timeout. 0.97

00:46:22.000 Even if you're a guy that's a boobs, this is my point. 1.00

00:46:24.000 Like, there's all these boomers on Twitter that were like, leave the girl alone. 0.98

00:46:28.000 Like, they thought that that was a woman.

00:46:30.000 Yeah, what is it with people on Twitter with the white knighting?

00:46:33.000 They just, they, they see a woman who's being criticized on Twitter and they just leap to the fray.

00:46:39.000 I was not, this is not a woman.

00:46:41.000 It's not a woman. 0.95

00:46:42.000 It's a dude.

00:46:42.000 Yeah.

00:46:43.000 But they think it is costume.

00:46:45.000 And they think that they have to, and like you've seen this, where people just go absolutely nuts.

00:46:49.000 It's not just like older people.

00:46:51.000 Like, it's, it is a, it is a personality type where I must defend the woman no matter what.

00:46:56.000 And like, no matter what, not even when it's not a woman, even when it's not a woman, even when it just all sort of looks like one, I guess.

00:47:03.000 And so I don't think Joe's suspiciously wide upper torso.

00:47:06.000 I'm just gonna state this whether or not this was a joke on his part.

00:47:11.000 It was a bad joke because now people are questioning whether or not he's defending his okayness with male trans people.

00:47:20.000 And it's too bad because Travis did really well with Mike Pence in the same week, and now the distraction is that he's like praising a dude.

00:47:26.000 Yeah, and that's not a question.

00:47:27.000 You need to be, we'll get over it pretty quick.

00:47:29.000 You need to be very clear.

00:47:30.000 You need to be very quickly.

00:47:32.000 It's not like you posed with a Bud Light and was like, it's not the same thing.

00:47:36.000 Yeah, I mean... 0.98

00:47:37.000 Fake trans boobs and fake boobs on women, not the same thing. 0.98

00:47:41.000 Of course they're not the same. 0.96

00:47:43.000 But then, Charlie, since we're going through terminology here, all right, the question then is, so let's take the other side, the other position.

00:47:51.000 Could it be possible that Clay Travis was fooled and tweeted this in earnest, in which case this would fall into, and if anyone who's spent time in Southeast Asia knows this would be fault, this would fall into the category of trapping.

00:48:07.000 Is it possible that Clay Travis was trapped here?

00:48:11.000 And then, of course, that brings up the eternal question.

00:48:14.000 Does falling for a trap make one of that persuasion? 0.97

00:48:18.000 Are traps gay? 0.89

00:48:20.000 Yes. 0.80

00:48:22.000 Charlie. 0.99

00:48:23.000 Are traps gay? 0.99

00:48:24.000 Are traps? 0.99

00:48:25.000 Are traps gay? 0.99

00:48:27.000 I mean, probably. 0.91

00:48:28.000 Yes or no question.

00:48:29.000 Yes.

00:48:29.000 Yes or no question.

00:48:30.000 I mean, my default answer when someone asks me if something is gay is just, of course, because everything's turned gay now. 0.96

00:48:35.000 That's a good answer.

00:48:36.000 This is part of the mandatory.

00:48:38.000 My nuanced answer on this is my nuanced answer is.

00:48:40.000 Yeah, this is our turning point action candidate quiz. 0.98

00:48:42.000 We're going to say are traps gay. 1.00

00:48:44.000 No, the question.

00:48:45.000 So my answer on this is it is nuanced because in certain parts of the world, traps are like Southeast Asia.

00:48:52.000 I've never been trapped, by the way, for the record.

00:48:55.000 But I know people desperately insistent.

00:48:57.000 Like Tom Sauer, who have been. 0.90

00:49:00.000 And I say it becomes gay when you know. 1.00

00:49:04.000 And if you know and you go along with it, oh yeah. 1.00

00:49:09.000 Somebody pointed out that right now, fake boobs, since we're going back to this, fake boobs are not trendy with women. 0.77

00:49:16.000 Is that trendy on Twitter? 0.97

00:49:17.000 No, the only people getting fake boobs are dudes now. 0.83

00:49:21.000 Trying to save the cottage industry. 0.96

00:49:23.000 Oh, wait, that's right.

00:49:24.000 No, because there's the whole...

00:49:25.000 No, because there's the whole like breast reduction is actually probably the bigger thing.

00:49:29.000 Breast reduction is popular and natural.

00:49:31.000 And natural, yeah.

00:49:32.000 Which is great.

00:49:32.000 I think it's awesome.

00:49:33.000 Which is great.

00:49:34.000 I think it's a lot of sense, though.

00:49:35.000 Because when you have enough of these trannies getting them, people are going to mentally wonder, if they see an oppressive but obviously fake rack, they're going to think, is that a dude? 1.00

00:49:45.000 Got to get the Seinfeld clip about this topic.

00:49:48.000 They're real.

00:49:50.000 They're real and they're spectacular.

00:49:52.000 Wait, did I tell you what Alex Stein did to me the other day when I had him on?

00:49:56.000 He did his green screen background was the Seinfeld set.

00:49:59.000 Is that right?

00:50:00.000 And he never once mentioned anything about it.

00:50:02.000 And then until towards the end, I said, you know, your office looks suspiciously like Derry Seinfeld's apartment there.

00:50:08.000 He's just like, yeah, we weren't even talking about anything that guy.

00:50:13.000 He just decided to pick the Seinfeld set.

00:50:16.000 This brings me back to Seinfeld, this whole conversation.

00:50:18.000 I don't know why it just reminiscent of Manhands.

00:50:20.000 Remember the Manhands? 0.68

00:50:21.000 Oh, yeah. 0.58

00:50:21.000 He's got Manhands. 0.58

00:50:22.000 Like woman's opening up picks. 0.98

00:50:25.000 But it was clearly a different actor, right?

00:50:28.000 So they would zoom in on the hands and it was like a producer or something.

00:50:32.000 Now you just assume that's a tranquility now.

00:50:35.000 You can't do that.

00:50:35.000 Well, now in that episode, if the episode aired today, we'd be like, oh my gosh, that's a trans.

00:50:40.000 And by the way, let's just be clear. 0.65

00:50:41.000 If you listen to that tranny talk, you're not fooled within a second when you hear the voice. 1.00

00:50:46.000 The voice is the tell. 0.98

00:50:47.000 That tranny has a baritone thing. 1.00

00:50:51.000 I'm here at the White House. 0.57

00:50:52.000 Dr. Jill Biden.

00:50:55.000 I do think I do feel for these boomers. 0.81

00:50:58.000 It concerns me that there's a bunch of boomers running around out there. 1.00

00:51:01.000 We love boomers.

00:51:01.000 We don't insult them.

00:51:02.000 No, I'm saying I'm concerned there's a bunch of boomers getting tricked by trannies. 1.00

00:51:08.000 They're getting trapped.

00:51:10.000 You know, a lot of boomers are moving to third world countries for cheaper retirements.

00:51:14.000 Is that a real thing?

00:51:15.000 You know, yeah.

00:51:16.000 In Panama, they move to Thailand and they'll get trapped. 0.51

00:51:18.000 It'll be a real trap.

00:51:18.000 No, there's in the military, this has been a thing forever.

00:51:21.000 Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia.

00:51:23.000 Of men being like being trapped by men who are dressing like women? 0.97

00:51:28.000 Both actually.

00:51:29.000 But what I'm saying is, but then when you go to those parts of the world, ladyboys, as they're known in that region, are prevalent.

00:51:36.000 Oh, yeah.

00:51:37.000 They're actually men.

00:51:37.000 Yeah, so you get trapped.

00:51:39.000 But then it's also this idea where, you know, your dollar goes further.

00:51:43.000 If you're on a fixed income, it's easier if you don't have family, et cetera, et cetera.

00:51:47.000 Oh, yeah.

00:51:47.000 It's a whole thing.

00:51:48.000 Hail to the King, Seinfeld, Play Cut 91. 1.00

00:51:52.000 I can't believe you sent a woman into the sauna to do that. 1.00

00:51:55.000 That was an accident. 1.00

00:51:57.000 I think you're both mentally ill. 1.00

00:52:01.000 Can't say that anymore. 1.00

00:52:08.000 And by the way, they're real and they're spectacular.

00:52:12.000 Yes.

00:52:14.000 They don't make TV like that anymore.

00:52:16.000 Okay, that Rosemary. 1.00

00:52:17.000 I don't make women like that anymore. 1.00

00:52:18.000 She was, she was, uh, she was Lois Layton when she did that with Dean King. 1.00

00:52:22.000 With her, with her guy.

00:52:23.000 That's why she was cast for that role, though, is because Jerry loves Superman more than anything else.

00:52:28.000 Right.

00:52:29.000 And so he always, he wanted people in the kind of Superman orbit always to come in.

00:52:34.000 Okay, play cut 35.

00:52:35.000 This is the tell, okay?

00:52:37.000 This, this whole thing about, oh, he tricked me.

00:52:40.000 Okay, there's no tricking.

00:52:41.000 Okay, play cut 35.

00:52:44.000 I just recently come to my attention that conservatives are trying to use the video of me topless at the White House to try to call the community groomers, et cetera.

00:52:56.000 And I would just like to say that, first of all, going topless in Washington, D.C. is legal. 0.56

00:53:03.000 My transmasculine friends were showing off their top surgery scars and living in joy.

00:53:09.000 And I wanted to join them.

00:53:11.000 I had zero intention of trying to be vulgar or be profane in any way.

00:53:18.000 I was simply living in joy, living my truth and existing in my body.

00:53:24.000 Happy pride, free the nipple. 0.98

00:53:27.000 Yeah, you can't say free the nipple for that. 1.00

00:53:29.000 Free the nipple is for breastfeeding and trainees can't breastfeed.

00:53:31.000 But Charlie, did the wrong side win the American Revolution?

00:53:35.000 Was this all a mistake?

00:53:36.000 No.

00:53:38.000 Correct side one.

00:53:40.000 For the record, 1776 was a very good idea.

00:53:44.000 Okay?

00:53:45.000 For the record.

00:53:47.000 Yeah, this is crazy, though.

00:53:49.000 I mean, this.

00:53:49.000 But should we have listened to Hamilton a little bit more, Charlie?

00:53:52.000 This is an interesting question.

00:53:54.000 I think that we should have a much, I think the power the founders actually gave the executive has been vastly underutilized and underrated in the last many presidencies, especially by Donald Trump.

00:54:08.000 There's no such thing as the unitary theory.

00:54:10.000 It is just the Constitution.

00:54:12.000 I do think we have to give our thanks to James Madison, though, for making sure that in Article 2.

00:54:18.000 Yeah, you know, James Madison went into Article 2.

00:54:22.000 That's Clarence Thompson.

00:54:23.000 Oh, yeah.

00:54:24.000 Be sensitive, James.

00:54:25.000 Like, that's James Madison.

00:54:27.000 That's Clarence Thompson.

00:54:30.000 James Madison, you know, he went into Article 2 of the Constitution.

00:54:33.000 His family was doing something else.

00:54:34.000 We came very close to having Article 2 of the Constitution have a clause that says traps are not gay. 0.98

00:54:40.000 And he actually had that taken out.

00:54:42.000 Jefferson wanted it in. 0.86

00:54:43.000 Traps are not gay. 1.00

00:54:44.000 So I hear Jefferson wanted it in. 0.54

00:54:45.000 Yeah, Jefferson wanted it in.

00:54:47.000 All right, speaking of which, prompt number four or topic number four here on thought crimes.

00:54:52.000 By the way, get your tickets to Turning Point Action Action Conference, tpaction.com.

00:54:55.000 We're working through all the speed bumps on Rumble.

00:54:58.000 You can also email me, freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:55:02.000 I have the email up, or you guys can talk in the Rumble chat.

00:55:05.000 Either or you guys can enjoy that.

00:55:09.000 Okay, number four, Pride Teenth.

00:55:11.000 The White House commemorated Juneteenth today on June 13th, a full six days before the actual date.

00:55:17.000 So now we have Juneteenth week for a holiday.

00:55:21.000 And we, of course, had our YWS summit where we had the gay flag outside. 0.68

00:55:26.000 Used to be a single day to commemorate the Stonewall riots.

00:55:30.000 Actually, that's not totally true, right?

00:55:32.000 But like it was supposed to be about when the news of slavery liberation.

00:55:35.000 Kind of mixing the streams there of Pride and Juneteenth.

00:55:38.000 Because now we're going to be able to do that.

00:55:38.000 Oh, okay.

00:55:39.000 I can't keep track of all this.

00:55:40.000 So Juneteenth was when slaves in Texas learned of that.

00:55:44.000 That's when they're emancipated, right?

00:55:46.000 Yes.

00:55:46.000 And so they learned about that.

00:55:48.000 And that became like a local holiday in the Texas region and a few other kind of Texas diaspora regions.

00:55:54.000 And then otherwise it was pretty obscure.

00:55:56.000 CNN never talked about it for a decade.

00:55:59.000 I can list on one hand, Tucker Carlson, myself, Candace Owens, and I know Jack.

00:56:03.000 There were very few of us, Jack, that were super forceful against Juneteenth when this got proposed.

00:56:09.000 Remember?

00:56:10.000 I mean, it was Cole James that was pushing it.

00:56:15.000 And it was Republicans who came up and it was, you know, out of heritage, the original, you know, not older.

00:56:24.000 New heritage.

00:56:25.000 New heritage is based.

00:56:26.000 Previous, right, the previous regime, if you want to call it like that, the previous regime over there, where they were pushing this.

00:56:33.000 And it was part of this whole, like, with Nikki Haley taking down the flag and taking down all the statues and renaming all the bases, which have all been renamed now, for the most part, at least.

00:56:46.000 It's creepier than that.

00:56:47.000 They've gone into Wikipedia and they've like rewritten the Fort Bragg article.

00:56:50.000 So it's now Fort Liberty, like when we're training for World War II.

00:56:54.000 They did that with Ellen Page, too.

00:56:56.000 Yeah.

00:56:56.000 Definitely not.

00:56:57.000 It was like one day we all woke up and it was no longer Ellen Page.

00:57:01.000 She was no longer, like, like we all watched, you know.

00:57:03.000 We all thought it was great.

00:57:04.000 It was like a Pearlife movie.

00:57:05.000 But you wake up one day and it's all, it's Elliot.

00:57:06.000 It's always been Elliot.

00:57:07.000 There's never Ell Elliott.

00:57:09.000 And it turns out we were fighting East Asia in World War II the whole time.

00:57:13.000 Yeah.

00:57:14.000 So I have a theory with, I mean, the Juneteenth.

00:57:17.000 What I'm saying is it was how can we be woke?

00:57:19.000 We need to be woker than woke.

00:57:21.000 The Republicans.

00:57:22.000 Yeah.

00:57:22.000 And I was just trying to like take the woke off the table.

00:57:26.000 And of course it doesn't.

00:57:27.000 So now we have a summertime competitor to Independence Day.

00:57:30.000 So now we have two Independence Days.

00:57:31.000 Just like now when you watch sporting events, they have the black national anthem and the American, you know, the actual national anthem.

00:57:37.000 So let's play some tapes here. 1.00

00:57:38.000 Kamala Harris takes the stage Juneteenth and starts laughing uncontrollably. 1.00

00:57:42.000 She didn't take Valium this morning. 0.66

00:57:44.000 Play Cut 39.

00:57:47.000 Happy Juneteenth.

00:57:50.000 Please have a seat.

00:57:51.000 Please have a seat.

00:58:03.000 And to my Devine Line family.

00:58:08.000 Was that a little jive at the end?

00:58:09.000 Was that a little code switching?

00:58:11.000 My Jamai, Jamai family.

00:58:14.000 A little bit of kind of like all of a sudden getting into the...

00:58:17.000 No, Yeah, it was a little bit of the jive talk.

00:58:21.000 It looks like, right? 0.98

00:58:22.000 She had some tequila for breakfast. 0.98

00:58:23.000 Yeah.

00:58:23.000 By the way, the Democrats are so, I mean, I hate the narrative.

00:58:27.000 They're the real racists.

00:58:28.000 But could you imagine if I went to like a Blexit event and I just started talking, jive?

00:58:33.000 Hey, Rabada. 0.74

00:58:35.000 It's like oh, whoa, whoa, like, I know that she's, she's just like, it's so insulting. 1.00

00:58:38.000 Or AOC, it's called code switching.

00:58:39.000 And this is a real thing, right?

00:58:40.000 Code switching.

00:58:41.000 It's a real thing. 0.99

00:58:42.000 Hillary was the first one. 0.99

00:58:44.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:58:45.000 It doesn't get highlighted enough that Kamala literally got denounced by her Jamaican relatives.

00:58:50.000 No, this is correct.

00:58:51.000 That's right. 1.00

00:58:51.000 Disgusting and pathetic and had humiliated that. 1.00

00:58:54.000 This is not the topic we're discussing now, but I hope she's a nominee. 1.00

00:58:57.000 I think she's unbelievably beatable.

00:58:59.000 They're never going to let that happen.

00:59:01.000 No, they'll do her.

00:59:04.000 I think they'll put John Fetterman in before her.

00:59:06.000 I'm not.

00:59:06.000 They will take her out.

00:59:07.000 Well, I think we're not like on the topic of it.

00:59:11.000 He doesn't say anything.

00:59:11.000 No, Newsom is clearly, clearly raising his hand and saying, hey, I'm here, coach.

00:59:17.000 Put me in.

00:59:18.000 If this dude falls apart.

00:59:19.000 Do you want a thought crime?

00:59:20.000 I thought he did okay on Hannity.

00:59:23.000 I haven't watched it yet.

00:59:24.000 You know.

00:59:24.000 I'm just being honest.

00:59:25.000 I thought he held his own.

00:59:26.000 There is a universe out there where Gavin, you know, Joe Biden retires or dies, and they're like, okay, we nominate Gavin Newsome, and then maybe something happens to Trump, and we plug in Don Jr. as the Republican candidate.

00:59:39.000 I see where you're going with this, Blake.

00:59:41.000 I see where you're going.

00:59:42.000 And so we have the, you know, it's a family torn.

00:59:45.000 The family is a family.

00:59:47.000 A family torn apart.

00:59:48.000 Yes.

00:59:49.000 So a house divided, as we call it in football.

00:59:52.000 So let's play another thing here.

00:59:56.000 Joe Biden honoring Juneteenth sugar.

00:59:59.000 What is his name?

01:00:00.000 Not Sugar Pop.

01:00:01.000 What's the corn pop?

01:00:04.000 Corn pop.

01:00:04.000 Corn pike cut 38.

01:00:05.000 He's a bad dude.

01:00:06.000 Sugar pop.

01:00:06.000 Sugar pop or whatever.

01:00:07.000 38.

01:00:10.000 Juneteenth.

01:00:12.000 Our entire administration is continuing to charge forward to literally redeem the soul of America.

01:00:20.000 Redeeming the soul of America.

01:00:21.000 Are we talking about the Ashley Biden speech?

01:00:24.000 Jeez, man.

01:00:25.000 The Ashley Babbitt.

01:00:26.000 The Ashley Biden speech.

01:00:29.000 Yeah, that's cut 79.

01:00:31.000 She claims her dad is bringing justice and healing to all communities across America.

01:00:36.000 Is this the one he showered with?

01:00:37.000 I believe.

01:00:38.000 Yeah.

01:00:39.000 So this diary, Ashley, or is she wrote in the diary this allegation, but it was also sort of like a rehab diary?

01:00:47.000 And so it's the question is: was this something she was working through?

01:00:52.000 Was this something that wasn't really?

01:00:52.000 How was she when she wrote it?

01:00:54.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:00:56.000 How hopped up was she when she wrote it?

01:00:57.000 I see it the opposite.

01:00:58.000 You're never more truthful than when you're in therapy.

01:01:00.000 Well, she's in rehab.

01:01:01.000 But it is a rehabilitation.

01:01:02.000 When you read it, it's much more just.

01:01:05.000 Was she not getting therapy when she was doing that?

01:01:07.000 No, she was in.

01:01:07.000 So she was in one of those places that had like a outpatient sort of facility.

01:01:12.000 Like ketamine treatment.

01:01:13.000 Well, what it is is the thing, the diary is much more devastating to her than just that because it's literally her writing to herself, just like, I'm sexually out of control.

01:01:21.000 Like, I'm so attracted to this guy, but he's so bad for me.

01:01:24.000 But she wrote to his father. 0.97

01:01:26.000 She writes that Hunter uses, Hunter uses drugs the way that I use sex. 0.95

01:01:30.000 Yeah.

01:01:31.000 And so she does all this. 0.72

01:01:32.000 She basically writes a perfectly stable family. 1.00

01:01:34.000 We should let them keep on running the country. 0.99

01:01:36.000 Play cut 79.

01:01:39.000 My dad, Joe Biden, made Juneteenth officially a federal holiday.

01:01:44.000 My dad has instilled in me a deep commitment to serving and honoring our history and making material changes to the lives of African Americans.

01:01:57.000 Through his courage, he leads, bringing jobs, justice, and healing to communities all across the country.

01:02:06.000 Okay, let's first, I got a couple thoughts here. 0.99

01:02:08.000 She's better looking than Rose Montoya. 1.00

01:02:11.000 She's not a man. 0.88

01:02:12.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:02:13.000 I find her vile. 1.00

01:02:15.000 There's nothing about her that's attractive. 1.00

01:02:17.000 But still more attractive than Rose Montoya.

01:02:21.000 He's a man.

01:02:23.000 Yes, that's an important aspect.

01:02:25.000 That's a question.

01:02:26.000 We're grading on a devastating curve here.

01:02:28.000 I feel bad for she was born into this insanity, but I don't feel bad for her that she's gaining up and she's defending this.

01:02:35.000 Like this, this is insane. 0.96

01:02:38.000 This family is insane.

01:02:39.000 The things that they said about the Trump family, I witnessed Don Jr. buying a group of homeless people free in an outburger early on in the 2016 campaign, just out of the goodness of his heart.

01:02:51.000 He just might have been one of those normal guys.

01:02:53.000 He was just a good, normal dude.

01:02:54.000 And they attacked the Trump family as if they're like some abnormal weirdos the entire time.

01:02:59.000 They're the most normal, cool, normal, you know, very wealthy families, but normal people. 1.00

01:03:05.000 These people are all screwed up. 0.62

01:03:07.000 And it's like the media just runs cover for them constantly and allows this to happen. 0.99

01:03:13.000 Like these people to get up and just say whatever they want.

01:03:16.000 I read through, so like I got the copy of the laptop in October of 2020, right?

01:03:23.000 And yeah, I mean, obviously the stuff that we were focusing on was, you know, the foreign crimes and the money and everything.

01:03:28.000 But I'd say a good 75% of the messages in there are just this family just bashing each other all the time.

01:03:37.000 And Hunter going at Jill, Jill going at the daughter, the daughter going at Hunter, Ashley, they're one of the most dysfunctional families you've ever seen.

01:03:46.000 And oh, by the way, like this is exactly the kind of family that would take that kind of money and just be spending it like crazy, like would not care.

01:03:55.000 We know openly that like Hunters complained that he was expected to bankroll his dad's lifestyle.

01:04:00.000 Right.

01:04:00.000 So he said, yeah, he was complaining that he never got any of the credit in this one email, this one text message that, you know, he was complaining that he never got credit, even though he was the one that made all the money.

01:04:12.000 And it's like, so you're going to be able to do that.

01:04:13.000 But here's the most important question from the clip: is it black or African Americans?

01:04:17.000 Can we just settle this?

01:04:18.000 Okay.

01:04:18.000 It was two different things.

01:04:20.000 What are you talking about?

01:04:21.000 It's two different things.

01:04:23.000 Okay, what is the difference?

01:04:25.000 So you could, so an African-American has a set, has a set phrase. 0.97

01:04:31.000 So that means, so for example, if you are an African-American, that typically means what you refer to as an African-American descendant of slavery.

01:04:40.000 Now we have Aidos, which is Ados, which is kind of its own thing.

01:04:43.000 But for a black American, that's more overarching.

01:04:46.000 Don Lemon explained all this once.

01:04:47.000 And then he was actually pointing out.

01:04:49.000 So then why did they call it Black Lives Matter?

01:04:50.000 Why did they say it was African American Lives Matter?

01:04:54.000 Because it's, I guess, because it's a big, well, it's also more of a smaller word.

01:04:59.000 But he was saying that black Americans would encompass everyone, including like Kamala Harris.

01:05:04.000 But this is, Don Lemon said this clip.

01:05:05.000 I'm going to be very clear about this.

01:05:06.000 Don Lemon pointed out that he said because Kamala Harris was of Jamaican descent and therefore did not experience slavery like in her lineage, that she was not African American.

01:05:18.000 I think it's got to be black.

01:05:19.000 And the truth is, they redo the vocab every 15 years.

01:05:23.000 Yes, I know.

01:05:23.000 But no, she's reading off a script.

01:05:25.000 I mean, it's kind of weird that the regime is kind of going back to African American. 0.83

01:05:28.000 Well, the best example of how funny that could get is I did high school debate as a kid, and we had a resolution about Africa.

01:05:35.000 And I once debated a team and they said that we should adopt their plan to help Africa because it would help African Americans in Africa.

01:05:43.000 That's amazing.

01:05:44.000 Yes.

01:05:44.000 Which, of course, leads into the problems because, like, is Elon Musk an African-American?

01:05:48.000 Well, that's the point is that there's your litter list on it, then yeah.

01:05:52.000 Okay.

01:05:53.000 Let's now talk about one of our partners.

01:05:55.000 If you're sick of all this tranny nonsense, I want to brag on Public Square, publicsq.com. 1.00

01:06:01.000 They are our partner this evening for this program.

01:06:04.000 You should take out your phone and download the Public Square app right now.

01:06:08.000 They do an unbelievable job.

01:06:09.000 This is your navigational tool of the parallel economy, the patriot economy.

01:06:14.000 Jack, how great is Public Square?

01:06:15.000 Public Square is great.

01:06:17.000 And like Tanya loves it, for example, because she says, look, I love to support the guys that support you.

01:06:23.000 I want to support companies that support what we support.

01:06:25.000 I don't have time to keep a list all in my head of who's good and who's bad and everything.

01:06:30.000 She remembers the big ones, Target, Bud Light, et cetera, nothing we drink.

01:06:33.000 But it's what she said is when you're shopping, when you've got kids, when you've got a family, boom, you just go right to Public Square and it does the work for you.

01:06:42.000 And you're able, it's a business directory we're scrolling through right now.

01:06:45.000 Small businesses you can trust.

01:06:47.000 Michael Seifert comes on our radio program quite often and he does a great job.

01:06:53.000 You'll see they have all the businesses.

01:06:56.000 Did you see his new initiative?

01:06:58.000 Which one?

01:06:59.000 The baby bonus?

01:07:01.000 Yeah, no, it's terrific.

01:07:03.000 It's the opposite of what major corporations are doing, which is they do baby penalties. 0.98

01:07:07.000 They pay for your abortion. 0.67

01:07:09.000 And so it's America's Marketplace.

01:07:11.000 Join over a million freedom-loving Americans.

01:07:14.000 They have a million members.

01:07:15.000 They were just in the top of the app store.

01:07:17.000 So take out your phone and download the Public Square app.

01:07:22.000 They're terrific.

01:07:23.000 Think very highly of them.

01:07:24.000 So check it out: Public Square app, publicsq.com.

01:07:29.000 Okay, I think we're segwaying now into the deep bowels of the internet.

01:07:33.000 Is that right?

01:07:34.000 I'm looking at my lineup now.

01:07:36.000 Wait, are we actually talking about that?

01:07:37.000 I wasn't serious.

01:07:38.000 Wait, you really want to?

01:07:40.000 You really want to talk about this?

01:07:41.000 What we have the videos?

01:07:42.000 We have the fact that no, I know we have the videos, but I thought you guys were joking.

01:07:46.000 The fact that Joy Reid didn't notice a smoke detector was going off in her home.

01:07:50.000 We're doing the deep web.

01:07:52.000 I'm just being honest.

01:07:53.000 Like, it's really strange.

01:07:54.000 So, I got sent this video the other day of Joy Reed in her house.

01:08:00.000 You know, I guess it looks like her kitchen living room kind of thing.

01:08:03.000 Hey, hey, we're not pussyfooting around, Charlie.

01:08:06.000 Where she's talking and she's delivering this video, you know, just to her audience.

01:08:11.000 I don't even remember what she's talking about, but all of a sudden, like a couple of seconds in, you hear a smoke detector alarm going off.

01:08:17.000 Now, not the regular, like a smoke, like a fire is going on, but the battery alert is actually going off throughout the entire video.

01:08:26.000 And it's like Joy Reed doesn't even know.

01:08:29.000 Maybe she doesn't notice it.

01:08:30.000 Maybe she doesn't know what it means.

01:08:31.000 Maybe she doesn't act.

01:08:32.000 Maybe she's just normalized that sound in the background.

01:08:35.000 So here's the best part, Charlie.

01:08:36.000 We have this clip if we want to do it.

01:08:38.000 Okay, but before I want to, I want to explain.

01:08:40.000 So I went back to check to make sure it was real because I was like, look, you could do that to anybody.

01:08:45.000 You could add the sound effect in and make a bet, right?

01:08:47.000 So I, and I realized this was a repost.

01:08:49.000 I go in to, and you can go to TikTok on a, on a, uh, on a, like a dummy browser and and scroll back.

01:08:57.000 Charlie, she has this video still up on her TikTok and she killed the audio on it.

01:09:01.000 Okay, so why is this significant, Jack? 0.98

01:09:04.000 This is significant because it goes back to Adam Carolla, it goes back to Loveline, it goes back to this meme that people who are dumb are just not paying attention to their smoke alarms. 0.99

01:09:17.000 Got it. 0.98

01:09:17.000 So it's an intelligence thing. 0.98

01:09:18.000 Let's play Cut 85. 0.99

01:09:20.000 That would definitely explain Joy Reed.

01:09:23.000 Weirdly enough, his people, Italians, would not have been considered Americans or worthy Americans like England. 1.00

01:09:33.000 But I digress.

01:09:35.000 Given his complete devotion.

01:09:37.000 And another thing: I have a question.

01:09:40.000 Why are conservatives so obsessed with wanting to say the N-word?

01:09:45.000 Okay, so the race lady is talking about how racist we are, and she's ranting while the smoke detectors chirping in the background. 0.63

01:09:53.000 And to be clear, they cut that so you hear all the chirps.

01:09:56.000 Now, now, this is where we're going to get a little thought crimy.

01:09:58.000 In black culture, there is a self-deprecating joke of blacks making fun of themselves that they don't change batteries and smoke detectors.

01:10:07.000 Do we have that clip?

01:10:08.000 Play Cut 87.

01:10:15.000 I don't know why, but I am offended. 0.99

01:10:18.000 First off, that's hella ignorant. 0.97

01:10:21.000 I get it. 0.99

01:10:22.000 I can take a joke just like the next person.

01:10:24.000 Like, I understand, like, this is like a joke.

01:10:26.000 It's supposed to be funny, but I really think we should take into account the stereotypes that really harm our community.

01:10:32.000 No, cause what?

01:10:36.000 So we're just playing TikTok videos, and you guys can draw your own conclusions.

01:10:40.000 This is now just this, it's just TikTok, what, TikTok review on here, TikTok smoke alarm review.

01:10:45.000 Looks, we got to do it as much as we can before.

01:10:48.000 There's people in the comments, right, where they'll come up.

01:10:51.000 And I saw this one guy, and 4chan was talking about this, of course, which is a terrible website that I've never gone to.

01:10:56.000 But there was a guy on there talking about how he used to work in like a call center.

01:11:00.000 And by the way, Adam Corolla, you know, is the guy who really originated this because certain people would call in and all of a sudden in the middle, and this is Lovelines.

01:11:10.000 They would get like very graphic sexual topics, but that was the show, right?

01:11:15.000 That was the, it was old school.

01:11:17.000 Like you, we used to be a country where that was fine.

01:11:19.000 We were like, whatever, go talk about that on Loveline. 0.99

01:11:22.000 But if these idiots would just, and it's every 30 seconds on a loop, and there was another guy on 4chan talking about how there was one particular, he's a maintenance guy, and there was a particular apartment building that he worked in. 0.96

01:11:37.000 And he's like, you would go in there and it was like a symphony of smoke alarm chirps that just like this one and then this one and this one. 0.99

01:11:44.000 Like, did it did?

01:11:46.000 But is there a cultural reason in the black community why that this is considered to be a self-described stereotype?

01:11:55.000 I think it's missing or is it like JoyRead video, you know, sparked a lot of people.

01:12:01.000 And I guess on, and I don't spend enough time on TikTok, we'd have to ask Haya about this, lives in TikTok.

01:12:08.000 But it sparked a lot of people saying, oh, oh, you know, is this like a black thing?

01:12:12.000 Do only black people do this? 0.99

01:12:14.000 And now it's just become this meme that people have completely exploded on TikTok. 0.57

01:12:20.000 I will say this.

01:12:21.000 I would think that, I think that it's generally a rule in black culture that louder environments they're okay with more so than not.

01:12:29.000 Is that fair to say?

01:12:31.000 I don't know about any race doing this, but when there's one on my wall that I can't reach, I literally will just like chuck things out until it breaks until we're just completely ripped out of the wall. 0.76

01:12:42.000 But by the way, this is, you know, I can't stand it.

01:12:44.000 When it goes off, like, I have to, I have to do it right away.

01:12:48.000 Change it or move on.

01:12:49.000 Yeah, change it or like, or like sell the house and then move to another house.

01:12:53.000 There's a dark undercurrent to this, which is just that, like, if this was a more okay thing to joke about, like, smoke alarms do save lives, guys.

01:13:02.000 You should change the batteries of your smoke detectors.

01:13:05.000 Are there stats on that?

01:13:06.000 Nah, how smoke detectors change lives?

01:13:09.000 No, no, no, no.

01:13:10.000 I'm talking about rather self-evident.

01:13:11.000 No, no, no, no.

01:13:12.000 I'm talking about are there stats broken down by deaths by fatalities by fire or there probably are.

01:13:22.000 I don't have them off the top of my head.

01:13:23.000 No, I don't know.

01:13:24.000 I remember even in the thread that you had on Twitter, there were people responding to it saying that like during Zoom school with COVID, that DC public school officials.

01:13:33.000 That's right, this came up.

01:13:34.000 Yes.

01:13:34.000 They were like, wait, we have to do a smoke detector, change your batteries thing, because they kept hearing that all these kids had expired smoke detectors in there.

01:13:42.000 Let's play cut 89.

01:13:46.000 Just in joy.

01:13:48.000 She's a gift to myself.

01:13:52.000 It's the RM3502, Red Nadal.

01:13:56.000 It's another 400,000 right here.

01:13:59.000 And yeah, we do got also two carrots each with stone EVS.

01:14:04.000 And we got the two carrots on the knife.

01:14:07.000 This was 23-year-old.

01:14:14.000 Got him.

01:14:15.000 It's not that they can't afford batteries.

01:14:17.000 So what people are doing is a lot of financial pressure.

01:14:20.000 So, Charlie, what they're doing on 4chan now is they're digging through, combing through TikTok, just going to random people's accounts, like searching various hashtags, whatever it is, to try to find more examples of the smoke alarm phenomenon.

01:14:35.000 And what are we learning from the phenomenon?

01:14:38.000 We're learning that this seems to be, as you said, a cultural or we are learning, Jack, that Americans have become very concerned with the fire safety of their fellow citizens.

01:14:49.000 I'm very concerned with fires.

01:14:51.000 You're right.

01:14:52.000 It actually is a real thing.

01:14:53.000 Like, we don't want people dying because their smoke alarms aren't being used.

01:14:57.000 Yeah, I mean, if there was one thing to say, Charlie Kirk and friends are opposed to fire deaths.

01:15:04.000 Yeah, if there was one thing to shame a community on, it's not changing battery smoke detector shame.

01:15:10.000 Hey, change your smoke detector batteries.

01:15:12.000 Just fix your smoke detector right now.

01:15:14.000 Just go and do it.

01:15:16.000 Yeah, I just go and do it anyway.

01:15:19.000 Wait, did you guys did you guys hear something?

01:15:24.000 All right, we want to get to some, what do they call them?

01:15:27.000 Rumble rants.

01:15:28.000 Is that what they call it?

01:15:29.000 Rumble chats, something like that.

01:15:34.000 Yeah, I'm not going to read these.

01:15:37.000 This is not good.

01:15:38.000 I can't read this stuff.

01:15:39.000 This is all like, see, these people are anonymously writing things that should only be written on anonymous chats.

01:15:46.000 So, okay, how about this one?

01:15:49.000 Someone says, they gave $100.

01:15:51.000 Thank you, David.

01:15:52.000 It is written righteousness, Philippians 4.8.

01:15:55.000 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, or commendable.

01:15:58.000 If there's anything excellence worthy of praise, just think on those things.

01:16:01.000 I do not know what that translation is because typically it is said the opposite.

01:16:04.000 But yes, that is a beautiful verse.

01:16:06.000 Usually it is think on these things, not just someone just said in the comments that that's definitely something we don't want to culturally appropriate.

01:16:06.000 And thank you.

01:16:16.000 Yeah.

01:16:17.000 I'm just thinking back.

01:16:18.000 I'm just trying to think back to like when mine went out.

01:16:21.000 I literally just ripped it out of the wall.

01:16:22.000 I just like rip them out of the wall if you can't get them.

01:16:25.000 I've done that.

01:16:26.000 I don't feel like we're in a new century here.

01:16:29.000 How do we not have like a better solution for stuff like this?

01:16:33.000 But changing batteries is not this.

01:16:36.000 Yeah, but how's there not like a better solution for the entire general public on things like smoke alarms?

01:16:43.000 We're just in a, we're living in a this is why we're living in an alternate reality.

01:16:50.000 So I suppose, well, I suppose the idea is that you don't want your smoke alarm to be wired because if they have them wired and you're supposed to have like a backup battery if if the if the fire burns through the wire then you're screwed then you're screwed because the electricity is out and so you have no idea that the fire is going on because you're asleep.

01:17:10.000 Yeah.

01:17:12.000 There just seems like there's technological advances that should have us far beyond having to change like nine volt batteries and these things.

01:17:20.000 So someone said they want a Wilfred remake of the remake with Jack Pesobic as Ryan.

01:17:29.000 Well email us freedom at charliekirk.com if you so choose.

01:17:34.000 Who's ever got super chats in here?

01:17:38.000 Rumble chats.

01:17:39.000 I see this one, David.

01:17:39.000 Yep.

01:17:43.000 Yeah, most this guy's saying most building codes call for a hardwired with a battery backup.

01:17:47.000 That's exactly right.

01:17:48.000 Yeah, hardwire with a battery backup.

01:17:49.000 But not so the battery is already wired, though.

01:17:52.000 Like old, like old buildings don't have them hardwired.

01:17:55.000 It's just battery.

01:17:56.000 Right, but I'm saying that's why you need the battery.

01:17:58.000 Because if something happens to the wire, then you still need a battery in there or else you're done.

01:17:58.000 Yeah.

01:18:03.000 Yep.

01:18:04.000 Yeah, they chirp in the batteries.

01:18:06.000 The guy's telling us my uncle's house burned down from a hardwired smoke detector.

01:18:09.000 It was covered in grease while he was using a tank to burn away the grease.

01:18:15.000 I hope it was okay, but I have a lot of questions on that one.

01:18:20.000 I have a lot of questions.

01:18:24.000 Someone said, it broke my heart how sad Charlie was to see the chat just now.

01:18:29.000 How sad Charlie was to see that.

01:18:33.000 Rumble Randy66 says we should call out the Masons. 0.98

01:18:36.000 So Masons, consider yourselves called out. 1.00

01:18:39.000 Masons, you're done.

01:18:40.000 It's over.

01:18:40.000 It's all over.

01:18:41.000 Freemasons or the Masons?

01:18:43.000 Enjoy the new show.

01:18:44.000 Reminds me of the Arizona election coverage.

01:18:46.000 I mean, that's basically like, so the behind the scenes part of this is that, you know, and Charlie, you know, you talked about this and said, look, we had some pretty cool, pretty cool late-night chats, and we got into all sorts of different, because it was, remember, we were waiting for the ballot drops and then the ballot drops.

01:19:04.000 I want to talk about ballots.

01:19:05.000 Yeah, we're going to do that again.

01:19:06.000 I know.

01:19:06.000 And we will do it.

01:19:07.000 It will come again.

01:19:07.000 It's coming again, everybody.

01:19:08.000 But my point is, is that the ballot drops were always staggered.

01:19:12.000 Sometimes it would be 45 minutes, sometimes it would be 90 minutes, and there would be times where we just needed to talk about something.

01:19:21.000 And like we were talking about like movies we watched at different times and all sorts of just random general stuff.

01:19:28.000 And it turned out that people kind of liked the random general stuff type chats.

01:19:32.000 And we always talked about, hey, why don't we do a show where we can, you know, do some politics, but then just get into all like these other categories that wouldn't necessarily fit on like a regular show.

01:19:42.000 And here we are talking about so much stuff.

01:19:44.000 We need to show everybody Suarez's campaign logo.

01:19:48.000 That's right.

01:19:48.000 Just put up the Suarez campaign logo.

01:19:52.000 This is the mayor of Miami.

01:19:54.000 That's it.

01:19:54.000 This is like a real thing.

01:19:56.000 This is Microsoft Paint.

01:19:58.000 Like, good for him.

01:19:59.000 Like, he's saving.

01:20:00.000 This guy's not a big spender.

01:20:02.000 This looks like something.

01:20:03.000 He's saving Miami a lot of money.

01:20:04.000 This is a lot of fun.

01:20:05.000 It's got to be a troll.

01:20:06.000 That looks like.

01:20:07.000 No, it was real.

01:20:07.000 It was on his campaign stuff.

01:20:09.000 It's like something a make-a-wish kid would make.

01:20:11.000 He posted it and then he posted, and then they replaced it because I think they got his website.

01:20:16.000 I can't find it.

01:20:16.000 He didn't even have a website.

01:20:19.000 Our staff told me that he didn't even have a website.

01:20:22.000 And then he did this.

01:20:24.000 But I have a theory as to why he's running for the presidency.

01:20:27.000 Why?

01:20:28.000 Because he's about to be indicted by the Department of Justice for corruption.

01:20:31.000 And if you run for the presidency, it's a lower likelihood of getting indicted.

01:20:35.000 So what's the...

01:20:36.000 Because there is that long-standing memo that they broke with Trump, which is if you're running for office, that we do.

01:20:41.000 No, no, no.

01:20:42.000 I mean, what are allegations on Suarez?

01:20:44.000 Fraud or something or corruption or what basically every major mayor does in America, which is take money from developers and lie about it, take some money for your families and get the building built quicker.

01:20:53.000 The Wire is a great show about this.

01:20:55.000 Yeah, it's also like living in Chicago.

01:20:56.000 It's what happened for the last hundred years.

01:20:58.000 But fewer and fewer people are living in Chicago by the day.

01:21:02.000 I mean, that population is going down.

01:21:09.000 You mean because they're moving away, right, Blake?

01:21:11.000 And other ways.

01:21:12.000 Well, they're in a vehicle.

01:21:15.000 Some people move to California.

01:21:17.000 Some people move to Texas.

01:21:18.000 Some people move to Florida. 0.61

01:21:19.000 And some people move to hell.

01:21:21.000 Let's check the numbers today.

01:21:25.000 June to date, 25 shot and killed in Chicago, 123 shot and wounded, 148 total shot and 27 total homicides.

01:21:31.000 Year to date, 254 people in Chicago, 1,018 shot and wounded, 1,272 with 276 total homicides.

01:21:38.000 The summer of joy is continuing, and that is all to blame for what?

01:21:44.000 That's a lot of white supremacy.

01:21:47.000 That's a war zone.

01:21:48.000 Yeah, but it's, and even NPR has talked about how actually car vehicular homicides are up in the wake of all this.

01:21:58.000 Because one of the very first things that you remember that started in George Floyd's America was that police officers were being told, or it wasn't even like there was orders that went out.

01:22:12.000 It was just this sort of general sense that we're going to stop policing.

01:22:16.000 Violent crime was number one, but number two was pulling over drivers and particularly pulling over black drivers. 0.90

01:22:22.000 And you can look at this, and I'll try, this doesn't lead to your situation, but it has a driver with white that tried to kill me. 0.97

01:22:29.000 Right, right.

01:22:29.000 But what I'm saying is it has led to an absolute increase in reckless driving in every in every major geopolitical or every geo area in the United States, and which has also contributed to the rise in black fatalities.

01:22:42.000 Yeah, you can check, like it's kind of just like you can look at the murder chart and it just shoots up overnight when George Floyd happens.

01:22:48.000 And then the press is all like, it must be COVID.

01:22:50.000 Right, right.

01:22:51.000 And then same thing.

01:22:51.000 You see it with traffic deaths, like pedestrian deaths, those go up.

01:22:54.000 It's like way less safe to be a pedestrian in like a in a black city or a black neighborhood. 0.99

01:22:59.000 And it's because like we told the cops to stop protecting them, I guess. 0.76

01:23:03.000 That's exactly in Mesa, Arizona, we've had.

01:23:06.000 And we were giving everyone similar checks.

01:23:09.000 Well, Mesa, Arizona, we've had homelessness go up, whatever it is, like 40-fold in the last five years.

01:23:16.000 Why would you be homeless in Mesa and not like literally anywhere else?

01:23:19.000 But here's the connection.

01:23:20.000 Here's the connection.

01:23:21.000 They're homeless.

01:23:22.000 And so what has gone up?

01:23:24.000 People getting hit on the street, just like crossing roads, just getting absolutely pummeled and run over just by cars.

01:23:30.000 Just vehicular.

01:23:31.000 That's the number one thing.

01:23:33.000 So we have people, significantly more people dying from just like getting hit on the road because homelessness has gone through the roof, which is only happening because of liberal policies.

01:23:42.000 So I said, really impressed by this new guy, Blaine.

01:23:45.000 He's very smart and has the kind of masculine beard my grandson wants to grow, but my grandson, his hair may not have the same effect.

01:23:52.000 Thank you, Blaine.

01:23:53.000 Other super chat, Blake is the, if you know, you know.

01:23:56.000 If you don't get this, too bad.

01:23:57.000 Blake is the Tim Cast Ian of this show.

01:23:59.000 I don't know who Tim Cast Ian is, unfortunately.

01:24:03.000 He's like the medical Gnosticist who chimes in every so often. 0.97

01:24:08.000 I was going to give him the Linen of this show, but Vladimir Lenin.

01:24:12.000 I'm going to go for that.

01:24:15.000 All right, everybody.

01:24:16.000 Let's see if we have a couple more rumble rants to do.

01:24:19.000 So we're going to be doing this every Thursday, everybody.

01:24:20.000 Obviously, we do our normal shows.

01:24:22.000 I do mine every day from 12 to 3 Eastern.

01:24:24.000 Jack, when do you do your show?

01:24:25.000 2 to 3.

01:24:26.000 2 to 3.

01:24:27.000 And kind of in between, I hand the baton off to Jack.

01:24:31.000 And we have a lot of fun.

01:24:32.000 Every Thursday at 8 p.m. Eastern, we are going to be doing this.

01:24:35.000 And so mark your calendars as we continue to do thought crimes here.

01:24:39.000 Do we have any rumble rants remaining to acknowledge that I might be seeing a lot of Wawa chats, by the way?

01:24:49.000 Shout out to all the Wawa.

01:24:50.000 Jonathan's asking you if you've had any saltwater taffy lately.

01:24:54.000 Wait, are we a Wawa show?

01:24:56.000 Not a Sheets show?

01:24:58.000 Yes.

01:24:58.000 100%.

01:25:00.000 Okay, if you insist.

01:25:01.000 Absolutely.

01:25:02.000 And I guarantee that next time when I'm on here, if I'm remote, I'm going to have my Wawa half gallon with me.

01:25:08.000 All right.

01:25:09.000 All right.

01:25:09.000 What about Bucky's?

01:25:10.000 We're pro-Buckies, right? 0.85

01:25:12.000 Yeah, Bucky's is one of the most amazing American institutions.

01:25:16.000 I've never been to Bucky's.

01:25:17.000 You go to Bucky's and you believe in America.

01:25:20.000 You go to Bucky's and you're like, America's not in decline. 1.00

01:25:22.000 We're going to completely kick China's ass. 1.00

01:25:25.000 Everybody tells me about Bucky's, but I've never actually gone to Bucky's. 1.00

01:25:27.000 Oh, no, Bucky's.

01:25:28.000 I mean, it's for people that have not been to Bucky's like you, imagine Costco as a turnoff gas station on a highway.

01:25:36.000 I don't like Costco, though.

01:25:38.000 No, no, no.

01:25:38.000 You don't understand.

01:25:39.000 Like, this is size-wise.

01:25:41.000 It's like size.

01:25:42.000 And by the way, it's the cleanest bathrooms.

01:25:44.000 They brag to have the cleanest bathrooms, and it's true.

01:25:46.000 All right. 0.97

01:25:47.000 And the food is ridiculous. 0.87

01:25:48.000 You're like, I'm just here to get gas.

01:25:49.000 And all of a sudden you leave.

01:25:50.000 It's just so high in 10.

01:25:51.000 $300.

01:25:52.000 It is high in 2009.

01:25:53.000 No, you go in.

01:25:54.000 It's like impeccably run.

01:25:55.000 And then as you're checking out, there's this giant sign assaulting you that's like, do you want to join the Bucky's team?

01:26:00.000 We'll pay you a crap load of money if you do it, but we're really insane.

01:26:04.000 No, wait, my buddy actually, it's a cult.

01:26:06.000 No, my buddy from Texas actually did get me something from Bucky's recently.

01:26:10.000 It was the, what are they called?

01:26:12.000 Like the nuggets, the beaver nuggets?

01:26:16.000 Yeah, the nuggets.

01:26:17.000 The nuggets.

01:26:18.000 They're kind of like, they're kind of like, they're kind of like apparently corn pops, actually.

01:26:22.000 But, you know, you don't eat them in cereal, but they were definitely like corn pops.

01:26:25.000 They were pretty good.

01:26:26.000 Definitely.

01:26:26.000 It's not very Texas.

01:26:27.000 They have like a wall of jerky.

01:26:28.000 I don't like that.

01:26:30.000 I'm a little bit oppositional to it.

01:26:32.000 Just because I'm oppositional to everything, Texas.

01:26:34.000 I'm not against Texans.

01:26:35.000 I'm just saying like...

01:26:36.000 What do you mean?

01:26:37.000 It's just Texans. 0.97

01:26:39.000 I'm a Tyler.

01:26:39.000 I'm an Arizona guy.

01:26:41.000 Texans put everything out fry.

01:26:42.000 And it's like, so it makes me immediately want to compete.

01:26:46.000 We need our own version of Bucky's.

01:26:48.000 We need a Bucky's competitor outside of Texas.

01:26:51.000 Yeah, that's something with Arizona.

01:26:52.000 And I just got to say this, as like an East Coast, you know, convenience store snob where we have, where we have like, we have sheets, we have Wawa, we have rudders, so many different things.

01:27:03.000 When you come to Arizona, it's like Circle K.

01:27:06.000 No, no, no.

01:27:07.000 We have Quick Trip, but Quick Trip's not from Arizona.

01:27:09.000 It's not from Mexico, Kansas City or something.

01:27:12.000 There's no like Arizona.

01:27:14.000 But we do.

01:27:16.000 It's a desert out here.

01:27:17.000 It's horrible.

01:27:18.000 No, Quick Trip is loved here, though.

01:27:22.000 That's like QT is like loved here.

01:27:24.000 Yeah, it's loved by the federal.

01:27:27.000 It doesn't hold the candle to Buckeyes, though.

01:27:28.000 Pretty sure I saw a guy trip this morning.

01:27:31.000 And Bucky's is basically an amusement park as you turn off.

01:27:34.000 It's like a rest stop that all of a sudden.

01:27:36.000 People are asking where it is.

01:27:37.000 They're mostly in Texas, and there's a few in the south.

01:27:40.000 It's like a high-end.

01:27:41.000 They're expanding.

01:27:41.000 They expand a bunch of them.

01:27:42.000 They're one in Tennessee now.

01:27:43.000 There's one in Missouri.

01:27:44.000 They're mostly in Texas.

01:27:46.000 Yeah, they have a ton in Alabama now, Florida, Kentucky, and yeah, Texas.

01:27:50.000 I mean, that's the biggest one.

01:27:51.000 I remember the first time I went to Bucky's, I couldn't believe it.

01:27:53.000 I said, this is expanding too.

01:27:55.000 This has got to be a joke.
