00:00:49.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:51.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:00:53.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:56.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:00.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:01.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:02.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:10.000 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.

00:01:19.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:22.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.

00:01:31.000 Here with Tyler Boyer from Turning Point Action, tpaction.com.

00:01:35.000 That is tpaction.com.

00:01:37.000 Get involved this weekend, knocking on doors, getting your friends out to the polls.

00:01:41.000 If you have any questions about any of the races that are happening in America, email is freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:01:47.000 We're going to get into some of these.

00:01:48.000 Jill just asks about Michigan.

00:01:50.000 We have someone asked about Joe Kent.

00:01:51.000 We're going to go through as many races as we can this hour, and then we're going to talk about what you can do about it.

00:01:55.000 But Tyler, we're looking at early voting returns.

00:01:58.000 We're looking at some of the polling.

00:01:59.000 We have to keep our head down and not talk about this too much.

00:02:02.000 But is it fair to say a red wave is doable if we show up?

00:02:06.000 A red wave is completely doable, but all that matters now is turnout on Tuesday.

00:02:12.000 That's it.

00:02:13.000 Turnout for Tuesday.

00:02:16.000 And everybody within the sound of our voices here has to understand that probably the biggest story from 2020 that nobody talked about was complacency of people thinking former red states that were going red and places that Donald Trump had won.

00:02:31.000 Like Georgia.

00:02:32.000 Like Georgia and Arizona.

00:02:33.000 And, you know, even if you, if you remember, North Carolina, it was surprisingly.

00:02:38.000 It was surprisingly tight.

00:02:39.000 Like a bunch of places were surprisingly tight.

00:02:42.000 And that was because Democrats were focused on doing, sending in mercenaries, as you put it, sending in people to get final votes because they can tally votes because of the early voting process now.

00:02:54.000 They know that it's true.

00:02:56.000 Hey, right now, if we're only 0.5% up and our target is X, that's how many votes we have to get.

00:03:01.000 In Arizona, it's going to be a little tricky because there's such a held back vote.

00:03:06.000 Is that correct?

00:03:06.000 Yeah.

00:03:07.000 And that's why they're upset. 1.00

00:03:08.000 The reason why Democrats are so mad at Arizona right now, they're so mad at Carrie Lake. 1.00

00:03:13.000 They don't know the points they need to kick. 0.99

00:03:15.000 Basically, we've cloaked their ability to model and to try to cheat and bend rules and show up and ballot harvest and do all those things.

00:03:26.000 And by the way, many of these things are illegal now.

00:03:28.000 And so they're risking everything.

00:03:29.000 But I think they're desperate enough where they will do anything to win.

00:03:33.000 And that's the key difference between Democrats and Republicans in most places, particularly red states, is they'll do anything to win while our people are like, oh, no, it's going to be fine.

00:03:42.000 We have the best elections that have ever been facilitated ever.

00:03:45.000 It's like, no, Governor DC, that's not true.

00:03:48.000 We have, there's no perfect election in America.

00:03:51.000 There just isn't.

00:03:51.000 Impossible.

00:03:52.000 And Arizona has a lot of problems.

00:03:54.000 And many of our states have a lot of problems because they've gone unfixed for years and years and years.

00:04:00.000 And so you said something really profound.

00:04:02.000 Let's just take Arizona.

00:04:03.000 We have people listening from Georgia.

00:04:04.000 We have someone listening right now from Michigan.

00:04:06.000 But let's just take Arizona.

00:04:08.000 If 5,000 people decided to be responsible for five people this Tuesday, that could make the difference.

00:04:16.000 Well, yeah.

00:04:16.000 And you just brought up Michigan.

00:04:18.000 That was the difference the last two elections.

00:04:19.000 That's right.

00:04:20.000 So like the last two presidentials.

00:04:21.000 So, I mean, look, the reality is this is that these are so tight.

00:04:25.000 And this is the reason why is the question.

00:04:27.000 A lot of people have asked me, why have we had so many close states in the last two presidential cycles?

00:04:34.000 How did this happen?

00:04:35.000 It's particularly 2020.

00:04:36.000 How are there like all these states that, by the way, Joe Biden just had to have won in order to win the presidency?

00:04:42.000 Why were they so close?

00:04:44.000 Well, guys, it's because the Democrats have been smarter about vote harvesting, about vote tabulation, about tabulating, figuring out exactly what they need in order to get themselves barely across the finish line.

00:04:56.000 And guess what, guys?

00:04:57.000 They did.

00:04:57.000 They did in certain ways.

00:04:59.000 And they bent the rules.

00:05:00.000 They found ways to cheat that were legal and boxes.

00:05:04.000 Or found ways.

00:05:05.000 I mean, Michigan is a disaster right now because the election law and codes, the law is going the wrong direction in Michigan.

00:05:12.000 And so it's not getting easier in a place like Michigan for us to stop and prevent people from cheating.

00:05:19.000 Well, and so this is important that, so just you guys all understand, this is why when you hold your vote back and wait for election day, you're throwing off their modeling.

00:05:26.000 So what there's been about 1.29 million votes cast so far in the state of Arizona.

00:05:30.000 Is that right?

00:05:31.000 Yeah.

00:05:31.000 So as of yesterday, it's about 1.3 million votes.

00:05:35.000 You know, we look like we're heading in a direction of landing at about 1.5 million before election day.

00:05:40.000 To give you an idea, there were about 2 million votes cast in 2018, right?

00:05:45.000 So I think we're going to land somewhere between 2018 and 2020, which is what is to be expected a little bit.

00:05:55.000 I think they were expecting to have a little bit more votes than what's been cast so far.

00:05:59.000 But I think that speaks to voter sentiment in their support of Republicans.

00:06:04.000 And this is my hope, right?

00:06:05.000 Is that fewer votes have been cast in places across Arizona because more Republicans and conservative independents are holding back their votes.

00:06:14.000 And therefore, we could conceivably see a 600,000, 700,000 person turnout, which would throw off all the models.

00:06:21.000 Look, Charlie, if we hit 600,000 right now on the direction we're going.

00:06:25.000 We can.

00:06:26.000 The people are there.

00:06:26.000 The human beings are in Arizona.

00:06:28.000 But it requires everybody that's listening to us to understand.

00:06:32.000 To multiply.

00:06:33.000 Don't listen to Fox News, MSNBC, to talk radio, even, to candidates, to the Republican Party, to the Democrat Party.

00:06:42.000 Do not let everybody's going to be throwing at you, we're winning, we're losing, we're winning, we're losing.

00:06:48.000 And look, that's me included, and you included, right?

00:06:50.000 Like, just put on your blinders, put in your ear, put on your AirPods, listen to the Charlie Kirk show and like get excited, right?

00:06:57.000 Because we love America and that's what we want to talk about.

00:07:00.000 That's what we want to get pumped for.

00:07:01.000 And go down there and vote like it's your last vote you'll ever cast in your life and bring three to five people.

00:07:08.000 Make sure three people in your immediate circle that have probably not a super, we all know these people, right?

00:07:15.000 They're like, I'm not super pumped to vote.

00:07:17.000 Like, you know, Katie Hobbs is a racist and, you know, Carrie Lake, I just don't know her that well, but she's cool and whatever.

00:07:23.000 Be like, no, listen, you don't understand.

00:07:25.000 We need your vote this time.

00:07:27.000 Knock it out. 0.88

00:07:28.000 Drag them down. 0.99

00:07:29.000 Let's get it done.

00:07:30.000 And this is the election to do that.

00:07:32.000 And I think it's going to reset the narrative around voting.

00:07:34.000 Yeah.

00:07:35.000 And so it's all about multiplication, all that.

00:07:37.000 So let's go to some races here.

00:07:38.000 Someone says, Charlie, I'm praying for Lee Zeldin.

00:07:40.000 What are your thoughts?

00:07:41.000 Would appreciate it.

00:07:41.000 I think it's possible not only that Lee Zeldin wins, but also that I think we could win all four congressional seats in Long Island.

00:07:48.000 I think Republicans can run the table in Long Island.

00:07:50.000 What do you think, Tyler?

00:07:52.000 I mean, look, Long Island and upstate New York are going to be almost bellwether races for the entire country.

00:07:59.000 Yeah.

00:07:59.000 Because, I mean, look, New York's an interesting place.

00:08:01.000 New York's actually a much more conservative place than people realize.

00:08:05.000 And it's only because of New York City, five boroughs, the five boroughs that we have such a bad composition.

00:08:12.000 Yeah.

00:08:12.000 I mean, my dad-in-law owned all the five guys up in upstate New York for years.

00:08:17.000 And like people have been horrified at the direction that that state's gone.

00:08:20.000 And they're mad and they're angry.

00:08:22.000 And so I wouldn't be surprised if Lee wins.

00:08:25.000 But here's the bigger part: those congressional districts, seeing how we come out on top there.

00:08:31.000 And look, I think New Yorkers are ready to literally throw out New York City from their state and have two different states.

00:08:39.000 Yep.

00:08:39.000 I would do it if I was a New Yorker, but that's going to set the tone for the entire night.

00:08:45.000 There are four congressional districts in Long Island, and it is possible that Republicans go four out of four.

00:08:51.000 And if there is a huge turnout in New York, and I think it's so interesting, a competitive governor's race in New York has misdirected resources.

00:08:58.000 It's also going to help the downballot Republicans, where if the, for example, if Cuomo was up 10 points or up 20 points, it wouldn't be as much.

00:09:06.000 We could, if the night goes well, if people are showing up in big numbers and coming out of the rivers and coming out of the valleys, as Donald Trump would say, it is possible that New York has more Republicans in the delegation than Democrats.

00:09:20.000 But the only way this happens, everybody, is an unprecedented election day turnout where you need to do this.

00:09:26.000 You need to show up at 6 a.m. 0.78

00:09:28.000 And then throughout the day, you need to find 10 other people that haven't yet voted that day and just nag them and say, you got to go vote.

00:09:34.000 You got to go vote.

00:09:35.000 And it's a really interesting thing where the Democrats have this incredibly sophisticated modeling and they have early voting and all this stuff where we as Republicans basically like get everyone excited and say, just go do the thing.

00:09:35.000 You got to go vote.

00:09:50.000 Well, it's like, it's, you have one that's like this incredible grassroots, like, we hope we're going to win.

00:09:57.000 Everyone's got to show up.

00:09:58.000 And the Democrats have this very specific, like, we're down three points here.

00:10:01.000 We got to send in mercenaries, Tyler.

00:10:03.000 Well, Suffolk County, they're voted for Trump in 2020.

00:10:08.000 And they are, Biden is so far underwater in New York right now.

00:10:12.000 And this is New York, people.

00:10:14.000 He's like a 54, 55% disapproval rating there right now.

00:10:18.000 It's unheard of, you know, for a Democrat state blue state to be that underwater.

00:10:23.000 And so that's a bad sign for congressional races.

00:10:26.000 And it's good for Lee Zeldin.

00:10:28.000 It's really good.

00:10:28.000 It's good all the way up and down the ballot.

00:10:32.000 Look, in the good old days, we Americans argued about which policies to pursue to improve this beautiful country.

00:10:38.000 Charlie Kirk here.

00:10:39.000 Too often, we find ourselves arguing about whether or not America is great or not, or whether we should be ashamed or whether we should love America.

00:10:47.000 The reason for this is simple.

00:10:48.000 For too many years, too many of our schools have been neglecting to teach young people about our great heritage of liberty, presenting them instead a dishonest narrative of America as a fundamentally unjust or racist country.

00:10:59.000 Hillsdale College is winning in for America, the wonderful Hillsdale College, by offering a free online course, such as The Great American Story, A Land of Hope, Constitution 101, The Meaning of History of the Constitution.

00:11:27.000 Charlie4Hillsdale.com.

00:11:31.000 All right.

00:11:32.000 We are going to go around the horn.

00:11:34.000 We're here also with Austin Smith from Turning Point Action.

00:11:37.000 There have been two stories written about Turning Point Action.

00:11:40.000 These degenerates can't differentiate the two.

00:11:43.000 They conflate them intentionally.

00:11:45.000 There's Turning Point USA, which is all education, all college campuses, and then Turning Point Action in the Trenches.

00:11:51.000 And so there's this piece from the Arizona Republic, hostile takeover.

00:11:54.000 It's all about you two, actually.

00:11:55.000 I'm barely mentioned in this thing.

00:11:58.000 Trump Backers Turning Point Controls, Turning Point Control Arizona's GOP.

00:12:03.000 What have you guys been up to?

00:12:05.000 Man, it's been a while time.

00:12:07.000 The funny part is, is this the story that's in the Arizona Republic and then also that came out WAPO today is it's really a story about the grassroots.

00:12:16.000 It has nothing to do with us, right?

00:12:17.000 We're just that we're a facet of the grassroots and we happen to be one of the largest grassroots.

00:12:21.000 They're trying to villainize us.

00:12:22.000 Well, we're one of the largest grassroots organizations in the country through Turning Point Action.

00:12:26.000 And now we have our PAC.

00:12:27.000 I think we are the largest.

00:12:29.000 Yeah, we agree.

00:12:29.000 By a lot, by a lot.

00:12:30.000 I'm just trying to be humble here, Charlie.

00:12:31.000 But like we're doing, we're doing a lot of great groundwork.

00:12:34.000 We have incredible staff.

00:12:35.000 We've built an organism that is second to none.

00:12:38.000 We're doing it better than the Democrats are doing it.

00:12:40.000 And they are admitting that in the nicest way that they possibly can.

00:12:45.000 But here's the story.

00:12:46.000 The story is the grassroots.

00:12:47.000 Because at the end of the day, it's none of us control the grassroots.

00:12:52.000 Charlie Kirk doesn't control the grassroots.

00:12:54.000 Donald Trump doesn't control the grassroots.

00:12:56.000 Ronald Reagan didn't control the grassroots.

00:12:58.000 Austin Smith doesn't control the grassroots.

00:13:00.000 And the more that you revere and you humble yourself to accept the fact that the grassroots is usually right and that they're the heartbeat and the engine for the entire movement, and you respect that, then you have more success as a party.

00:13:16.000 And that's the story.

00:13:17.000 The party has been inverted for years, right?

00:13:18.000 Austin, it's been consultants at the top, and then they kind of ignore the voters.

00:13:22.000 We're trying to change that.

00:13:23.000 And now there's a Washington Post story out today, this Arizona Republic story, one after the other, obviously coordinated, all about Turning Point Action and how they claim we've taken over the Arizona Republican Party.

00:13:33.000 I mean, that's, they can say whatever they want.

00:13:35.000 Here's what is true, though.

00:13:36.000 We've helped shape the Arizona political ecosystem to actually listen to voters.

00:13:41.000 No, you're absolutely right.

00:13:42.000 And to Tyler's point is that when candidates and party leaders respect and revere the grassroots, that's a good thing.

00:13:49.000 All we're trying to do at Turning Point Action, what we've done over the last couple of years, is show the grassroots and show other leaders that this is how it's supposed to be.

00:13:56.000 We're supposed to take our cues from the people that are in the precincts every single weekend, knocking doors and registering voters who do the grunt work in the non-election years.

00:14:04.000 And that's not a hostile takeover of the party.

00:14:06.000 That's leading by an example that this is what the Republican Party should be doing.

00:14:10.000 And for the longest time, the Democrats were very grassroots organized and oriented, and they're not that way anymore.

00:14:16.000 And thankfully, for groups like Turning Point Action that actually go into the neighborhoods and go into the precincts and attend local meetings, this is a good thing.

00:14:23.000 The party is supposed to be grassroots driven.

00:14:25.000 And Charlie, this is the point, too.

00:14:27.000 It's actually the opposite of hostile because it's actually the most peaceful, and this is proven by history, right?

00:14:33.000 The Republican Party is actually run and operationally, and so is the Democrat Party, by the way, in our state, anyways, and in many places, is run like as a Republican form of government, right?

00:14:46.000 Which is representative.

00:14:47.000 So in the state of Arizona, you have a representative model through precinct committeemen who represent the party at all levels down to the precinct level.

00:14:57.000 And when you respect that and you actually engage in that, you have the most peace in your party.

00:15:02.000 You know why you have more peace?

00:15:03.000 You're always going to have conflict.

00:15:05.000 You're always going to have people that disagree.

00:15:06.000 I mean, I disagree with my wife.

00:15:07.000 I disagree with Charlie all the time.

00:15:08.000 Like literally, we fight every single day about like this and that and like little things, right?

00:15:12.000 Like we talk about things, we discuss and we have, we belabor these, these issues.

00:15:17.000 But the reality is this, is that when you have a well-represented party, meaning a person from every precinct, many people from every precinct representing what the Republican Party is, you have more peace because there's more understanding of what the party is.

00:15:31.000 And to one more thing, Charlie, is that earlier this year, the state legislature in Arizona tried to eliminate precinct committee men elections.

00:15:38.000 And it was stopped like that because the grassroots in Arizona understand how important this level and this form of government is in the party and in our state government.

00:15:45.000 Is that, I mean, we were part of it.

00:15:47.000 It was like, it blew up.

00:15:48.000 And we just wanted to make sure that the people that do the work that carries our party and our nation into a better place, you got to respect those people.

00:15:56.000 Well, Charlie, that's the important story, too, that we need to discuss.

00:15:59.000 And after this election, we are going to talk about it a lot.

00:16:03.000 Arizona is the front lines for the rest of the country.

00:16:06.000 And what Rusty Bowers tried to do, and this is why he's no longer in office, what he tried to do was eliminate precinct committeemen.

00:16:12.000 He tried to eliminate the precinct spot.

00:16:15.000 And there's a reason why they want it.

00:16:16.000 You want to talk about hostile takeovers?

00:16:19.000 They want a hostile takeover of our country by eliminating the grassroots and the representative voice in your neighborhood.

00:16:26.000 That's well said.

00:16:30.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:16:31.000 The world is in chaos, and it's going to cause food shortages unlike anything we've ever seen.

00:17:32.000 Okay, we need to raise the energy level.

00:17:33.000 We need all of you guys to take out your phone right now and text five friends.

00:17:37.000 Are you voting?

00:17:38.000 Are you voting?

00:17:38.000 You need to be accountable for your circle.

00:17:40.000 I got my 30 people I'm accountable for.

00:17:42.000 I might even expand that to 50.

00:17:44.000 And by the way, these are people that they're like the barber, they're the delivery guy.

00:17:49.000 Everyone I'm going to, I say, are you voting?

00:17:51.000 Are you voting?

00:17:53.000 You got to just pepper people.

00:17:54.000 And by the way, people say, well, Charlie, you know, I got too much to do.

00:17:57.000 No, you don't.

00:17:57.000 You're not going to have a country if we don't win.

00:17:59.000 Okay.

00:18:00.000 And by the way, the day after the election, you could sleep in, you can drink beer, you can do whatever people do and watch sports or whatever, but you got a republic to save Tuesday.

00:18:09.000 North Carolina, what's going on, Tyler?

00:18:11.000 Oh my gosh.

00:18:12.000 Charlie, what's going on right now with Bo Hines?

00:18:14.000 So I'm sorry, not Florida.

00:18:16.000 North Carolina 13.

00:18:18.000 So Ted Budd, who's running right now, right?

00:18:21.000 That was his district.

00:18:22.000 It's a plus four Republican district.

00:18:25.000 Is this Bo Hines?

00:18:26.000 This is Bo Hines.

00:18:27.000 So he's endorsed by us at Turning Point Action.

00:18:30.000 Young kid.

00:18:30.000 Young guy.

00:18:31.000 He's incredible.

00:18:33.000 He's a great conservative, great America first guy.

00:18:37.000 He is running against the race.

00:18:39.000 It's the race of the lifetime right now, because if we lose this House seat, there's blood in the water for Democrats in North Carolina.

00:18:47.000 And they're hoping that they can do to North Carolina what they did to Georgia.

00:18:51.000 This is the, I mean, guys, I'm telling you right now.

00:18:53.000 Ted Budd is going to win.

00:18:54.000 I think that's fair.

00:18:55.000 Ted Bud's going to win.

00:18:56.000 But if they can do to North Carolina what they did to Georgia in 2024, it changes the entire map for Republicans.

00:19:04.000 And this is where they're fighting.

00:19:05.000 The same way that we're kind of fighting in Nevada, and we think that we're going to, like, Nevada is going to be like on our side.

00:19:10.000 Yes.

00:19:10.000 Look at North Carolina similarly to that.

00:19:12.000 It's just North Carolina has more electoral college votes.

00:19:16.000 Okay, so what are the races in North Carolina?

00:19:18.000 So that race plus it's, I think it's CD1 and CD6 are at play.

00:19:26.000 And this is going to be really the indicator to watch early on.

00:19:29.000 So we talked, just talked about New York.

00:19:31.000 But if I'm looking at the map, I'm looking at New York and I'm looking at North Carolina and I'm saying, what is happening in CD1, CD6, and what's happening with Bo Hines in 13?

00:19:41.000 Ohio.

00:19:42.000 Ohio.

00:19:42.000 J.R. Majuski.

00:19:43.000 Yeah, that's one of our guys there.

00:19:44.000 Turning point action of drugs, JR Majewski.

00:19:47.000 That's a new district, R plus six right now, but it's a dogfight.

00:19:49.000 They don't like JR because he's a conservative outsider.

00:19:52.000 The Democrats are pouring a lot of money tickets because I think they've abandoned JD Vance.

00:19:55.000 They pulled out all of their statewide funding for that race for the advertisements, but they're really just trying to go after some of the House seats they are.

00:20:02.000 JR is one of those guys.

00:20:03.000 It's a Democrat-held seat right now with an incumbent who is, you know, I can't think of her name, but she's obviously Nancy Pelosi, just from Ohio.

00:20:10.000 And they're really trying to help her save that seat right now.

00:20:12.000 We've had a team in Ohio since the summertime, knocking doors, getting out the vote, registering voters in the summertime.

00:20:19.000 So we're all in Ohio and JR.

00:20:21.000 But if you're in Ohio and you're listening to this program right now, you've got to go vote in person for JR right now.

00:20:25.000 If you already haven't made a plan to vote the time polls open until they close on Tuesday.

00:20:29.000 And show up to Toledo and help out JR.

00:20:32.000 If you have someone to give to in the Midwest, he's maybe one of the most important races outside of the establishment's abandoned him.

00:20:39.000 The establishment's abandoned him.

00:20:40.000 He is the most, it is, that's one of the hotly, most hotly contested races that we must win this cycle.

00:20:48.000 That would be a huge loss for us if we don't win it.

00:20:51.000 JR is campaigning very hard.

00:20:53.000 We backed him very early.

00:20:54.000 He is all over his district.

00:20:55.000 He goes all over the state.

00:20:56.000 He's not just, I mean, he's helping other conservatives in his district.

00:20:59.000 And Ron DeSantis, this is the guy you want in Washington, D.C.

00:21:01.000 So we've got to get him across.

00:21:02.000 And I want you to know this too.

00:21:03.000 Everybody hearing my voice, because I stood there and watched it.

00:21:06.000 Governor DeSantis is fully behind JR, shook his hand, gave him a big hug, said, We're fully behind you.

00:21:13.000 I love you.

00:21:13.000 I love what you're saying and what you're doing.

00:21:16.000 And this guy's a big Trump guy.

00:21:18.000 He's, I'm telling you right now, if there's a guy we've got to get across the finish line, it's J.R. Majuski.

00:21:23.000 Go help him.

00:21:24.000 Go show up in Toledo.

00:21:26.000 I don't care.

00:21:26.000 Bring clipboards or knocking, start talking to people.

00:21:28.000 I'm telling you right now, we have to win that on Tuesday.

00:21:31.000 Okay, so next one I want to get to here, which is really, really important and we're getting a lot of emails about, is the Florida races.

00:21:39.000 Yes.

00:21:39.000 Okay.

00:21:40.000 So Ana Paulina, we're going there this weekend. 0.90

00:21:42.000 Ana Paulina is a great candidate. 0.99

00:21:43.000 She's had so much money spent against her. 0.99

00:21:46.000 Yes. 1.00

00:21:46.000 What's going on with Ana Paulina, Clearwater St. Petersburg area? 1.00

00:21:50.000 She's a turning point graduate, you could say, of our system. 0.96

00:21:53.000 Yes.

00:21:54.000 What's going on with Ana Paulina? 1.00

00:21:55.000 Ana Paulina, just give you a quick history, ran our Hispanic outreach at Turning Point USD. 0.98

00:22:01.000 We traveled the campuses all across the country.

00:22:03.000 She went through the Charlie Kirk School of Public Engagement.

00:22:07.000 That's true.

00:22:07.000 She's a graduate of the making lives mad against her.

00:22:11.000 I have my own college.

00:22:12.000 And by the way, if you survive traveling with Charlie and speaking on campus, then you are an elite public speaker.

00:22:21.000 So Ana Paulina is unbelievable, a veteran.

00:22:26.000 Her husband's a veteran.

00:22:28.000 Really great, just patriots and American.

00:22:30.000 They have spent gubernatorial style money against her in Pinellas County.

00:22:36.000 And I'm telling you right now, that would be a massive loss for us if we lose.

00:22:40.000 She needs all the support she can get.

00:22:43.000 So God bless Governor DeSantis.

00:22:45.000 He's coming up.

00:22:46.000 He called up, said, Hey, where can I be most helpful?

00:22:49.000 And we said, Hey, this is one of the most hotly contested races. 1.00

00:22:52.000 Democrats have poured into Ana Paulina, trying to keep her out because they know she's going to be a powerhouse for a long time. 0.99

00:22:59.000 And we've been knocking doors for her all summer.

00:23:00.000 And then we're knocking doors.

00:23:01.000 We've been knocking doors for every single weekend or once or twice a week in her district.

00:23:05.000 Super Saturdays, right?

00:23:07.000 That's what your team's doing.

00:23:08.000 And Turning Point Patrick is coming in with some ads at the end.

00:23:10.000 We've been with her for a very long time.

00:23:12.000 Charlie, just on this on Ana Paulina, we're doing this event on Saturday.

00:23:16.000 Charlie's going to be speaking at it.

00:23:18.000 It's going to be incredible.

00:23:18.000 Governor DeSantis is going to be there.

00:23:20.000 Ana Paulina is going to be there.

00:23:21.000 We're going to have some special guests.

00:23:22.000 They're going to be there.

00:23:23.000 Benny Johnson is going to be warming up the crowd.

00:23:25.000 He's so excited.

00:23:27.000 We're going to have a good time.

00:23:29.000 Go to tpaction.com/slash DeSantis, tpaction.com/slash events.

00:23:34.000 Register now.

00:23:35.000 We want you there. 0.97

00:23:37.000 And we're going to be handing out hundreds and hundreds of clipboards to go do knock door knocking events after this event.

00:23:43.000 I want to play a piece of tape here.

00:23:44.000 If anyone out there is a Trump voter, you now have an extra reason to vote on Tuesday and get every other Trump voter that might be a low-propensity Trump voter to show up because Donald Trump is going to run in 2024.

00:23:55.000 He is signaling that.

00:23:56.000 And this, by the way, I think he's playing his cards pretty smart here.

00:23:59.000 Trump is, where he's now going to really boost midterm election turnout.

00:24:03.000 In fact, we got to get this message out.

00:24:05.000 I think Donald Trump's super PAC.

00:24:07.000 If anyone from Donald Trump's world is listening, Donald Trump's super PAC needs to spend some money to try to get this message out, play cut 123.

00:24:14.000 And now, in order to make our country successful and safe and glorious, I will very, very, very probably do it again.

00:24:25.000 Okay.

00:24:25.000 Very, very, very probably.

00:24:27.000 Get ready.

00:24:28.000 That's all I'm telling you.

00:24:29.000 Very soon.

00:24:30.000 That's going to help in a lot of these states, isn't it?

00:24:32.000 Ohio, Arizona.

00:24:34.000 If Trump voters feel as if there's a future for the MAGA movement in this Congress is a step.

00:24:39.000 Go ahead.

00:24:40.000 Let me lay this out for you here.

00:24:42.000 And this is why this election matters so much, guys.

00:24:44.000 Think about this.

00:24:45.000 Donald Trump, Michaels in Wisconsin, right?

00:24:49.000 Mastriano in Pennsylvania.

00:24:51.000 Kerry Lake in Arizona.

00:24:53.000 Ron DeSantis in Florida.

00:24:55.000 Guys, we have the greatest fighting team that has ever been assembled at the state level.

00:25:01.000 Jamie Vance in Ohio.

00:25:02.000 And then we'll have JD.

00:25:05.000 This is why this election matters so much.

00:25:06.000 Black salt in Nevada.

00:25:08.000 I mean, I'm telling you guys, we have the coolest, youngest, most vibrant, exciting crowd of candidates.

00:25:14.000 And these people will be in public office.

00:25:17.000 They are so scared of this in 2024.

00:25:19.000 This should motivate you now more than ever to show up, show up big on Tuesday because if we get this across the finish line, America's in, I'm telling you, America's in a more exciting, better place than it's been in 20 years.

00:25:31.000 We have the Democrats on the ropes in a very profound way.

00:25:34.000 Alaska, what's going on?

00:25:35.000 We have a very loyal Alaska audience on Real America's Voice.

00:25:39.000 I get emails from Alaska, hundreds of emails a week.

00:25:42.000 I love Alaska.

00:25:43.000 Kelly Shabaka against the snake because the turtle is supporting the snake.

00:25:47.000 What is going on with the Alaska Senate primary?

00:25:49.000 I'm going to tell you right now, Charlie, and everybody in Alaska, hear my voice.

00:25:53.000 I want you to get involved voting.

00:25:54.000 I want you to get involved with the Republican Party.

00:25:56.000 I want you to demand great party leadership at the local level.

00:26:02.000 And you need to push back against ranked choice voting after this election.

00:26:08.000 It's too late now, though.

00:26:09.000 It's too late now, but we got to turn this ship around and then be a spokesperson for the rest of the country to say, don't let this happen to your state.

00:26:16.000 Because unfortunately, we had some Republicans asleep at the wheel not understanding the context of this.

00:26:21.000 And Shabaka should be your senator.

00:26:25.000 And I want you to know this right now.

00:26:27.000 We are in, if you can pull this out and knock out Murkowski, it's going to signal something special for the rest of the country.

00:26:35.000 And so we're counting on you because it's going to be the last votes to come in.

00:26:39.000 That's the last race to come in. 0.94

00:26:41.000 Just so everyone knows, you have incumbent, moderate, very, very moderate Senator Lisa Murkowski. 1.00

00:26:47.000 She's a Democrat. 0.99

00:26:48.000 Let's just call it a call. 1.00

00:26:48.000 Call her what she is. 1.00

00:26:49.000 She is a Democrat.

00:26:50.000 She voted to indict Donald Trump with impeachment.

00:26:54.000 Mitch McConnell, who we call the turtle, just so everyone knows our little animal references here, but I call Murkowski the snake.

00:27:00.000 So he pumped in $9 million.

00:27:03.000 How much he spent here in Arizona?

00:27:04.000 Almost nothing.

00:27:05.000 Goosey's never been here.

00:27:06.000 For Blake Masters.

00:27:07.000 Mitch McConnell does not care about Arizona.

00:27:09.000 He doesn't care about getting this over with.

00:27:11.000 Instead, he's more concerned, not with Don Boldick, not with all of that.

00:27:15.000 No, but he spent $9 million propping up Murkowski against an amazing candidate, Kelly Shabaka.

00:27:23.000 And Charlie, I want your audience to understand this.

00:27:25.000 And this is the politics of things that most people don't see or understand.

00:27:30.000 The amount of money that McConnell raised for a Republican state to take out another Republican is not only dastardly because of the money that he spent on that, but you understand that by him doing that, it signaled millions of other dollars to go to that state to help Murkowski that could have gone places that we needed to win.

00:27:49.000 So we're talking about an impact that had rings of probably $20, $30 million plus.

00:27:55.000 And this is part of the reason why everyone's so angry at Mitch McConnell, and they should be.

00:27:58.000 They rightfully should be.

00:28:00.000 Mitt Romney came out defending Mitch McConnell yesterday.

00:28:03.000 This is how you know how bad things are for Mitch McConnell, that he has to have Mitt Romney come out and say something nice about him.

00:28:11.000 I'm telling you right now, it's not looking good for Mitch.

00:28:14.000 And the biggest slap in the face to get the Republican Party and the establishment correct here would be to win big with the right person in life.

00:28:24.000 Rick Scott for leader, no doubt.

00:28:26.000 Okay, so let's go to another race here where people are very, very interested.

00:28:30.000 And we're getting a ton of emails about this, the New Mexico governor's race.

00:28:34.000 That's a sleeper, Tyler.

00:28:35.000 Ron Shetty versus the woman. 0.99

00:28:37.000 Yes. 1.00

00:28:38.000 That is the worst.

00:28:38.000 I can't remember her name.

00:28:39.000 I never remember her name, Lujan Grisham or whatever.

00:28:42.000 Yeah.

00:28:42.000 So in New Mexico, New Mexico is kind of similar.

00:28:46.000 So there's three states that obviously everybody, I think, is really watching now on the gubernatorial side.

00:28:51.000 You got New Mexico, you've got Oregon, and you've got Minnesota.

00:28:56.000 And obviously, New York is now thrown in that category too.

00:29:00.000 If Republicans have the kind of day that we need to have, you know, for some of these Senate races and some of these congressional races, you're going to see some of these governors get over the top.

00:29:10.000 And this is the thing to talk about.

00:29:12.000 We always talk about top down, da, da, da, da.

00:29:14.000 We hear RGA talking, RNC, RNCC, NRSC talking.

00:29:19.000 The grassroots, I'm telling you, the school boards, school board races and things like that, that's what flipped Virginia.

00:29:26.000 That's what's going to flip a New Mexico.

00:29:28.000 That's what's going to flip Oregon. 0.94

00:29:30.000 That's what's going to flip Minnesota.

00:29:33.000 That's where the Republican Party has to invest its time and effort moving forward is win and flip these school board races because you win all the way up ticket when you do that.

00:29:41.000 Yep.

00:29:42.000 That's right.

00:29:42.000 It can happen.

00:29:43.000 Ron Shetty can become the next governor of New Mexico.

00:29:46.000 And by the way, in New Mexico, that's why it's happening because parents are so ticked off because schools are so poorly run in New Mexico.

00:29:52.000 That's right.

00:29:53.000 And they're not a school choice state like Arizona where we've fixed that.

00:29:57.000 That's right.

00:30:00.000 If you saw the news, Donald Trump plans to run for president and announce in a couple of weeks.

00:30:05.000 That should be a shot in the arm, a stimulus for every single MAGA voter.

00:30:09.000 He might be on the edge.

00:30:10.000 Let me tell you why.

00:30:11.000 If you're a Trump supporter, you want a Congress he can work with.

00:30:14.000 You want a House he can work with.

00:30:15.000 You want governors and secretary of states that he can work with.

00:30:20.000 And so get the word out.

00:30:22.000 We need the base to show up in major numbers, everybody.

00:30:26.000 Donald Trump is signaling he's running.

00:30:28.000 We need every single Trump voter on Tuesday to vote.

00:30:33.000 Okay, we got a ton of questions here.

00:30:35.000 So this is one that I'm getting repeatedly, which is the Illinois governor's race.

00:30:38.000 Darren Bailey, I'm telling you, Darren Bailey could shock the world and defeat J.B. Pritzker, born on third, thought he hit a triple.

00:30:45.000 He's a very, he embodies, I'm going to stop.

00:30:49.000 He's a bad guy.

00:30:50.000 Okay.

00:30:50.000 I'm going to be nice today.

00:30:52.000 He's got to be defeated. 0.97

00:30:53.000 He's a very bad person.

00:30:55.000 And he is someone who has done so much damage to my beloved home state of Illinois.

00:30:59.000 I love Illinois.

00:31:00.000 I care for Illinois.

00:31:01.000 There's some congressional seats, though, in Illinois that we got our eyes on, right?

00:31:04.000 If I'm not mistaken, in the suburbs, collar counties, they've redrawn the maps.

00:31:08.000 So I'm not totally sure about all of them.

00:31:10.000 Yeah, Mayor Picow that's there.

00:31:12.000 That's a good dude.

00:31:15.000 Actually, that's an interesting race to watch.

00:31:19.000 I don't have the number that's right in front of me right now, but I think it's like Illinois 10 or something.

00:31:23.000 Yeah, he was the mayor of, and I'm spacing right now because you just caught me off guard with Illinois because it's not on our map.

00:31:29.000 No, no, no.

00:31:30.000 He's male of like LaGrange or something, something like that.

00:31:32.000 No, it's Keith P. Cow or Orland Park.

00:31:36.000 Orland Park.

00:31:37.000 Yeah, that's Orland Park.

00:31:38.000 Good folks down there.

00:31:38.000 Yeah, Orland Park.

00:31:39.000 And that's not far from a facility that we have because we have a distribution facility that's not far from outside there.

00:31:44.000 But if he pulls out that race, which he could, because it's within a couple of points, that's going to say a lot, I think, in not just Illinois, but the rest of the Midwest.

00:31:56.000 And again, we were just talking about Minnesota.

00:31:58.000 So I'm like super bullish.

00:32:00.000 And this is where we were just talking about how Democrats want to redraw the map of North Carolina.

00:32:05.000 Republicans have to get extraordinarily serious about prioritizing these states.

00:32:11.000 And so what I'm most angry about coming out of this election, and I'm going to go into the RNC in January, and I'm going to probably rain hellfire upon the rest of the RNC.

00:32:20.000 And here's the reason why.

00:32:21.000 And I don't care if they hear this.

00:32:25.000 And other RNC members, my colleagues, need to hear this as well.

00:32:28.000 You cannot say that Arizona or Georgia or Wisconsin are the most important states and then not help make sure that national resources are directed.

00:32:37.000 We got to move fast.

00:32:38.000 Has the Republican establishment poured resources into Arizona necessary for us to win?

00:32:42.000 No, the answers.

00:32:43.000 Not at all.

00:32:43.000 Austin, and yet Turning Point Action, Turning Point Pact has stepped up and filled in the void.

00:32:47.000 And not just us, the grassroots, the people.

00:32:49.000 It's the grassroots.

00:32:50.000 It's the grassroots.

00:32:51.000 Yeah, we're nothing more than an organization that tries to be a vehicle, a vessel for normal, everyday people to get involved, to take their country back.

00:32:57.000 Is that fair to say?

00:32:58.000 And I want to give voters a lot of credit because they're recognizing this, right?

00:33:02.000 The reason why Carrie Lake got elected is they said, you know what, I'm not going to be impacted by $20 million.

00:33:06.000 I'm going to be impacted by what I know works.

00:33:09.000 And what we know works are people who are honest.

00:33:12.000 They call out the media.

00:33:13.000 They call out the political parties.

00:33:15.000 And, you know, I love the Republican Party.

00:33:17.000 The Republican Party is the way to save the country.

00:33:20.000 But it's the only vehicle.

00:33:21.000 Tucker says that all the time.

00:33:22.000 We have no other vehicle.

00:33:24.000 And so does Tyler.

00:33:24.000 And we have to save the Republican Party first in order to save America.

00:33:28.000 This third party thing is a complete and total waste of time.

00:33:30.000 It's not going to happen.

00:33:31.000 Okay. 0.95

00:33:31.000 Other races we're looking at. 0.95

00:33:32.000 Caroline Levitt, looking good?

00:33:33.000 Caroline's doing good. 1.00

00:33:34.000 You know, Caroline actually just took the lead in the recent poll that they had up in New Hampshire.

00:33:38.000 She worked very hard.

00:33:39.000 If you guys don't know the history of Caroline Levitt, New Hampshire girl, born and raised, went and worked in the Trump White House.

00:33:45.000 After Trump left in 2020, she got involved in New Hampshire politics even more, ran a phenomenal primary campaign, was the underdog, was outspent almost like five to one.

00:33:55.000 We backed her very early on.

00:33:56.000 We love Caroline.

00:33:57.000 She's going to be a great congresswoman. 0.81

00:33:59.000 If you live in New Hampshire and you haven't voted yet, you've got to make a plan and get her across the finish line because if she wins, this is going to be a shock across the world. 1.00

00:34:06.000 And she's going to slap around the establishment. 0.86

00:34:08.000 Okay, check out Turning Point Action. 0.99

00:34:10.000 We have get up the vote efforts in Georgia, Arizona, in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Florida, and Ohio.
