00:00:47.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:56.000So I like things that have happened before.
00:01:58.000If they work and if they show a blueprint to be able to defend freedom and this beautiful constitutional republic.
00:02:05.000So I have a provocative idea, and other people are posing this in one way or the other.
00:02:10.000I actually came up with it independent of other people, but I think it's important to share.
00:02:16.000Steve Bannon has said something similar to this, other people as well.
00:02:18.000I would love to hear your thoughts on this, though.
00:02:21.000The midterm elections here are going to be some of the most important midterm elections in American history.
00:02:27.000Republicans are in a very favorable position to take back the House of Representatives.
00:02:33.000Midterms traditionally have very low voter turnout.
00:02:36.000President Trump got the most votes of any sitting U.S. president in American history.
00:02:41.000President Trump has activated tens of millions of new first-time voters into the voting process.
00:02:48.000Republicans like Kevin McCarthy and Lindsey Graham know that if they are going to take back the House of Representatives and the Senate in 2022, Donald Trump is the key to do that.
00:04:06.000The first was his father, the second U.S. president, John Adams.
00:04:10.000Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison Monroe, John Quincy Adams, and then Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, who lost re-election to Andrew Jackson.
00:04:19.000So Adams considered permanently retiring from public life after his 1828 defeat.
00:04:26.000And he was very, very hurt by the suicide of his son, John Washington Adams.
00:04:34.000But he was so taken back by many of Andrew Jackson's actions, he ran for Congress and he won.
00:04:42.000John Quincy Adams, a former president, became a member of Congress.
00:04:47.000He grew bored of his retirement and still felt that his career was unfinished.
00:04:52.000So he ran for a U.S. House of Representatives seat in 1830 and he won.
00:04:58.000John Quincy Adams had a lot of power over the legislative direction of Congress in the 1830s when America was still in its infancy and we were still figuring out who we were as a country.
00:05:09.000Donald Trump should run for Congress in 2022 and become Speaker of the House.
00:05:53.000And with it, Donald Trump will raise about $600 to a million dollars, $800 million to help other House candidates across the country.
00:06:01.000The Democrats will have a slow-moving, unpopular administration to defend with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
00:06:10.000And Donald Trump then can be Speaker of the House against President Joe Biden, controlling a legislative branch against the executive.
00:06:20.000And in the line of succession, it would go Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Donald Trump.
00:06:25.000And then Donald Trump can launch his presidential campaign, if he so chooses, for 2024.
00:06:30.000Or he could say a kingmaker and control Speaker of the House, and he would be the first president in American history to be impeached twice, acquitted twice, won an election, lost an election, became Speaker of the House.
00:06:46.000I'm saying this 100% serious, but I'm saying it with levity, obviously, because this idea is new, and some of you might think it's a good idea, some of you might not.
00:06:56.000And I want you to email me your thoughts on this idea, Trump for Congress, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:07:01.000And for some of you who say, I need him to run for president, well, this would actually not restrict that either.
00:07:06.000He could run for Congress and he could run for president.
00:07:09.000The Democrats will be running for the Hills if Trump were to run again in 2022 in the midterms.
00:07:19.000So Kevin McCarthy has embraced Donald Trump.
00:07:48.000And then you have Donald Trump as Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.
00:07:55.000Where then all the people in Congress that he's had to deal with for so long will have to deal with him.
00:08:01.000Now, the other option is that Trump can go and help a lot of these House candidates, and the Speaker of the House does not have to be a member of Congress.
00:08:09.000So he could become Speaker of the House as a non-member of Congress.
00:08:14.000But the point is this: it's time to play offense against the Democrats.
00:08:21.000And what a Trump for Congress idea would do is in the interim here, where we're trying to find who's in charge, where the leader is, let's go raise hundreds of millions of dollars quickly to go take back the House and keep this movement going.
00:08:39.000You want to make sure that the Democrats are not able to miscategorize those of us that believe in conservative values as being domestic terrorists.
00:08:48.000Let's go out and advocate for our ideas publicly and win public office.
00:08:53.000Democrats are already slated to have a very bad midterm.
00:08:58.000The incumbent party does very poorly on midterm elections.
00:09:04.000That is one of the things that manifests itself repeatedly in American political history.
00:09:17.000Our production team said, did you just say the Speaker of the House doesn't have to be a member of Congress?
00:10:21.000It would be the ultimate way to play offense right now in this era where they are trying every way they possibly can to dominate American politics.
00:10:33.000Why not elect the man who got the most votes of any sitting president in American history to Congress and with it, Speaker of the House?
00:10:44.000And so Donald Trump, in a very interesting way, has been, I think he was listening to a Simon and Garfunkel song recently.
00:13:29.000Donald Trump voluntarily not saying something, which I support the strategy because I think it's been brilliant, is not the same as me saying I want him not to have access to social media.
00:13:47.000The nuance is Donald Trump shutting himself up.
00:13:50.000That's probably a little brutal way to say it.
00:13:52.000Donald Trump stopping discussion voluntarily has been a chess move that the media can't figure out.
00:14:01.000And this is why Bill Gates, the globalist, is saying, well, maybe we should allow him back on social media, Cut 56.
00:14:09.000Well, I think at some point he probably will be allowed back on and probably should be allowed back on.
00:14:19.000You know, it's weird when you're, you know, saying that the election was stolen without any facts there and how corrosive that is.
00:14:32.000But I'll bet they'll find a way to let him back on.
00:14:37.000I think Bill Gates misses Donald Trump.
00:14:40.000I think Bill Gates can get his globalist borderless trillionaire pandering agenda passed when there is Donald Trump in the American narrative.
00:14:53.000I think they're wrong about this, but I think that also that the chattering class and the people that made millions and hundreds of millions of dollars off of Donald Trump, I think they miss him.
00:15:06.000I think at CNN, they want nothing more than for Trump to come back on social media, not because they believe in freedom of speech, but because without him involved in the daily conversation, they're irrelevant.
00:15:24.000They basically became a Donald Trump reporting mechanism.
00:15:30.000Bill Gates is not an ambassador of free speech.
00:15:32.000Bill Gates wants Trump so that he can have a foil to justify his globalist schemes.
00:15:41.000As the China virus spreads across the world in the spring of 2020, Noble Gold investors flocked to precious metals as a financial safeguard.
00:15:49.000Gold is up more than 30% since March of 2020.
00:15:51.000Silver surged more than 50% over the same time period, reflecting the correlation among precious metals during times of financial volatility.
00:15:59.000But providing financial protection is not the only role that precious metals play in this fight.
00:16:03.000Precious metals also have broad applications in the medical field that go well beyond the dental uses most people associate with their value.
00:16:10.000But providing financial protection is not the only role that precious metals play in this fight.
00:16:14.000Gold and silver nanoparticles are essential part of virus research and prevention.
00:16:19.000As the China virus mutates, science will have to adapt its prevention methods accordingly, and precious metals will continue to stay in demand.
00:16:27.000As for me, I will continue to trust the team at Noble Gold, a leading authority in the precious metals industry.

00:16:52.000It's been the longest 15 days of my life, 15 days to slow the spread as we're still talking about the Chinese coronavirus and the lockdowns.
00:16:59.000You notice how we never actually had a full conversation about therapeutics in our country.
00:17:04.000It was always about vaccinations and lockdowns.
00:17:07.000Not about hydroxychloroquine or preventative measures.
00:17:12.000That very well might have helped vitamin D, zinc, exercise, outside.
00:17:18.000That was the big thing that they were talking about.
00:17:21.000And so I'm going to get into some sound here that helps build this out.
00:17:24.000The White House Chinese coronavirus advisor Slabitz has asked why California doesn't have better numbers despite them being locked down perpetually.
00:17:48.000Look, there's so much of this virus that we think we understand, that we think we can predict.
00:17:53.000That just beyond a little bit beyond our explanation, what we do know is that the more careful people are, the more they mask and social distance, and the quicker we vaccinate, the quicker it goes away and the less it spreads.
00:18:08.000There's not evidence to show that when you open up the economy and people that are not at risk of dying from the virus disproportionately of other populations, early 20s-somethings, teenagers, the virus will spread and you will have natural herd immunity.
00:18:22.000I'm not talking about people over the age of 60 or 70 that are legitimately at risk if you have preexisting health conditions and if a respiratory virus very well might put your health at risk and with it your life.
00:18:35.000But this argument he's making, if you listen very carefully, he says, first, there's so much of this virus.
00:18:42.000Okay, there's not any more of the virus in California than Florida.
00:18:53.000But he says, what we do know is that when people stay in their homes, the virus goes away.
00:19:01.000That sounds good, but it's not necessarily true because the data doesn't reflect that.
00:19:09.000The data reflects something a lot more nuanced and something a lot more detailed than that.
00:19:17.000That when you trust people to make good decisions at certain parts of the population that didn't need to be locked down for their welfare or their safety, they actually might get the virus, and then they'll be able to proceed with their life.
00:19:32.000Why are Florida's numbers the best in the country per capita, putting into context the fact that it's an open state?
00:19:40.000Maybe it's because every portion of the American population, I should say, every part of the Florida population, that's a better way to say it, handled it differently.
00:19:55.000I know people in Florida that have still not gone to a gathering, have not left their house or their neighborhood outside of going for a walk with a mask on since last March.
00:21:17.000People bought it and believed it just because they were told that Donald Trump was somehow to blame for all of this.
00:21:26.000And now the Biden administration has to explain why states that are completely locked down are doing far worse than the states that are opening up.
00:21:39.000I want to get to Cut 59 of Governor Ron DeSantis in the great state of Florida reacting to the scandal that is now encircling Andrew Cuomo.
00:21:51.000To March, I was getting criticized for not closing the beaches, which you don't close beaches for a respiratory virus, so I was right on that.
00:21:59.000But the media totally ignored how the governors were handling the nursing homes.
00:22:03.000We did an order right at the beginning saying hospitals cannot discharge COVID-positive nursing home residents back to nursing homes.
00:22:12.000By doing that, we saved hundreds, if not thousands of lives.
00:22:16.000And so we made the right decision at the outset.
00:22:19.000And again, the facts have borne us out over these many months.
00:22:22.000And the media totally ignored how the governors were handling the nursing homes.
00:22:27.000Andrew Cuomo is now under federal criminal investigation for putting infected elderly patients into nursing homes.
00:22:37.000And he said, oh, that's just a statistical error.
00:22:40.000He pulled the Hillary Clinton and said, what difference does it make?
00:22:42.000Makes a very big difference how you categorized it.
00:22:45.000Because you put the infected patients into the nursing homes.
00:22:49.000We've known this for months, by the way.
00:22:51.000There was an amazing caller almost a year ago on Mark Levin's program who blew the whistle on this.
00:22:57.000And the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, Reuters, AP, Huffington Post, BuzzFeed, all of these groups didn't care to investigate any of this.
00:23:08.000If it was a Republican, they would have resigned immediately.
00:23:12.000But Andrew Cuomo, who gets cover fire from Fredo on CNN.com, by the way, we have written about this extensively on charliekirk.com.
00:23:20.000So I encourage you guys to go right now to charliekirk.com and check it out, was never asked a critical question about this.
00:23:28.000And it wasn't until Letitia James, who, by the way, is not my favorite person, she gone after Donald Trump, she's gone after the NRA.
00:23:35.000She probably wants to be governor, which is exactly what's happening.
00:23:37.000She wants to take out Andrew Cuomo, and I'm not sure how it works in New York.
00:23:41.000I think they have a lieutenant governor, or it could be in New York where the attorney general becomes governor.
00:23:45.000Anyway, Letitia James wants to take out the Cuomo political family, no different than Elliot Spitzer got taken out for a very different scandal, but still a scandal nevertheless, using taxpayer funding dollars to hire prostitutes.
00:23:58.000If you guys don't remember Elliot Spitzer, you missed a very interesting chapter in American political history, not to mention Schneiderman, who is the old Attorney General of New York, who resigned recently and Letitia James then won election because Eric Schneiderman was credibly accused of sexually abusing the women he was with and punching them in the jaw for sport.
00:24:20.000That was the former attorney general of New York.
00:24:22.000Anyway, so Letitia James comes out with this report, which legitimizes all of what we've been talking about for the last nine months.
00:24:46.000So a lot of people that want Cuomo to step down all about him.
00:24:49.000Meanwhile, he wrote a book in the midst of all of this.
00:24:52.000Man, just the self-righteousness it takes to write a book about how well you're doing while you put infected Chinese coronavirus patients into a nursing home.
00:25:38.000Bill de Blasio's, Bill Abasio called Assemblyman Ron Kim's report of Cuomo's threatening phone calls as classic behavior from the governor.
00:25:47.000Bill de Blasio said, quote, the bullying is nothing new.
00:25:51.000I hope Andrew Yang becomes the next mayor of New York.
00:25:54.000I think he'd actually be a pretty good mayor.
00:25:56.000You can't get any worse than Bill de Blasio, once great American city that has just been completely and totally destroyed by bad policies, self-righteous, corrupt politicians.
00:26:08.000And so Andrew Cuomo, now being under credible investigation and accusation, has a lot of explaining to do.
00:26:19.000He went from being the model for how to handle the Chinese coronavirus to now being under very serious accusation and investigation for doing something that was so preventable.
00:26:38.000You were blaming everyone else for everything else at the same time.
00:26:41.000You were blaming Trump, even though President Trump brought in, literally brought in an aircraft carrier style ship into the harbor, the USS Mercy, I believe it was called.
00:27:22.000Cuomo got all the relief funding he needed.
00:27:24.000Cuomo got all of the support he needed.
00:27:26.000Cuomo got all the federal assistance he needed.
00:27:29.000And then Cuomo goes on a multi-month lecture tour across New York on all the major media networks with his slow, self-righteous, meandering way of talking, blaming Trump for the virus.
00:27:50.000And what does Chris, what does Andrew Cuomo call it?
00:27:58.000Remember, they even turned the Javits Center into a massive hospital, and they ended up not putting anyone there.
00:28:03.000And then he blamed Trump for all the nursing home deaths.
00:28:07.000What more help could Andrew Cuomo have received?
00:28:10.000What else would he have needed to possibly screw this up?
00:28:13.000Hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions of dollars, floated in New York to help Andrew Cuomo.
00:28:19.000And that goes to a deeper point that I really want to explore with you guys.
00:28:23.000You want to know how to divide the country?
00:28:25.000Do exactly what Andrew Cuomo, Joe Biden, Gavin Newsom, and J.B. Pritzker are doing.
00:28:30.000These are the most self-righteous, self-interested people I've ever seen in American politics.
00:28:41.000If you believe that this Chinese coronavirus was a once-in-a-century event, and this was similar to the death toll, even more so, a multiple of Pearl Harbor and 9-11, but the damage it did to our country, does that mean we should be in a post-political moment?
00:28:54.000So why is it Cuomo, Pritzker, Newsom, Brown, all these people, they don't say, you know what?
00:28:59.000Thank you, President Trump, for delivering us a vaccine and PPE.
00:29:10.000I still get excited to get a package in the mail, don't you?
00:29:12.000Well, after spending some time on the phone the other day with Dr. Douglas Howard, the doctor who formulated Balance of Nature's blend of real fruits and veggies, he sent me my first month's supply.
00:29:21.000I'm now taking responsibility for my own health.
00:29:23.000With Balance and Nature, I get 10 servings each day from a proprietary blend of 31 different fruits and veggies.
00:30:03.000Balanceondnature.com, use the discount code, Charlie.
00:30:10.000A Christian pastor from Edmonton, Canada has been jailed for breaking Alberta's Public Health Act by continuing to hold church services when ordered to stop.
00:30:20.000This is on Breitbart.com by Thomas D. Williams, Dr. Thomas D. Williams.
00:30:24.000Reverend James Coates on Grace Life Church of Edmonton turned himself into police on Tuesday, two days after officials attended his Sunday service to assess compliance with conditions issued to the pastor.
00:30:36.000Police said in a news release Wednesday.
00:30:38.000Grace Life has held worship services for three consecutive weeks.
00:30:43.000And after it was ordered to close at the end of January because of restrictions related to the Chinese coronavirus, his lawyer said, quote, his first obedience is to the Lord, is to his God.
00:30:55.000And normally obeying Jesus and obeying the government go right hand in hand.
00:30:58.000The government's forcing him into a position where he has to choose between disobeying God and obeying governments or obeying God and disobeying government.
00:31:09.000The government has come out and said the pastor's actions and subsequent effects those actions could have on the healthy and safety of our citizens dictated our response to the situation.
00:31:18.000They were already fined and now he's being put in solitary confinement for hosting church.
00:31:25.000This is Canada, North America, our neighbor.
00:31:29.000This pastor should be released immediately.
00:31:32.000Joe Biden should call Trust in Trudeau and say, if you do not release this pastor from prison, I'm putting sanctions and tariffs on Canada.
00:31:41.000But they don't have religious liberty in Canada.
00:31:45.000They do not have a First Amendment like we do.
00:31:48.000The First Amendment, like we do, is a document that has the Establishment Clause and the Free Expression Clause.
00:31:55.000The Founding Fathers knew that if you do not have the liberty to religiously assemble, to recognize where your rights come from, to have a connection to your Creator, then you cannot have a decent and civil society.
00:32:06.000You go back to the documents of the Magna Carta, the Mayflower Compact.
00:32:10.000The people who built this country understood that.
00:32:13.000The Canadians have always been a different form of government, obviously with French roots, much more social, democratic, soft, socialist style of government.
00:33:02.000Instead, he's just allowing voluntary assembly to occur.
00:33:07.000This is already happening in many different ways in our country, where my friend, Mike McClure from Calvary Chapel, San Jose, is being criminalized for doing this exact same thing.
00:33:17.000Where are the rest of the pastors in the churches rising up against this?
00:33:22.000Most of the big Christian incorporated pastors across the country, Rick Warren, the skinny gene people that do all these different YouTube live streams, they are silent on this issue because they probably think he deserves it.
00:33:39.000They actually think that we are called to be always and repeatedly subservient to government.
00:33:44.000It's a misreading of the text of Romans 13.
00:33:46.000I don't have to get into that right now.
00:33:48.000That's a deeper podcast, a different radio show for a different time.
00:33:50.000I encourage you to check out the Charlie Kirk Show podcast for that analysis.
00:33:56.000But now a peaceful, courageous pastor is in jail, Reverend James Coates, in solitary confinement because he decided to host a church service for a virus that we know how it operates, we know how it travels, we know its mortality rate, we know all of that.
00:34:23.000And it's coming all across this continent, and it's coming to our country very soon.
00:34:27.000And until pastors, until churches get very serious about the threat of government tyranny and the government and the state's willingness to use that force against peaceful assembly, they will not stop.
00:34:48.000So if you want to do something for freedom and liberty this weekend, do something for this pastor, Reverend Coates, in Canada.
00:34:56.000All he wanted to do was obey God and have a church service.
00:35:00.000And the Canadian government has deemed that to be enough to put you in solitary confinement.
00:35:04.000Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
