00:01:21.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:03.000With her, there's rumblings that Hunter Biden is going to be indicted soon.
00:02:09.000I definitely want to ask about that, but I want to get into some more sound here, just kind of about things that are happening generally in the country and the world.
00:02:18.000So, I'm really fascinated by this particular story, and I don't think it is worthy of just kind of glossing over.
00:02:27.000So, I want you to imagine if America had a KKK battalion within our own military.
00:02:38.000I want you to imagine if we were supporting groups that were Nazis.
00:02:50.000It's just shocking to me how the left-wing regime media has spent years smearing all of us as Nazis.
00:02:59.000Anyone who dares show up at school board meetings as Nazis, and then they fund actual real-life Nazis in Ukraine.
00:03:05.000And this is not like a slur or an exaggeration.
00:03:08.000There's a video right here that we see in front of us where there is literally a guy wearing a Nazi symbol in full tattoos with fully automatic machine guns saying in Ukrainian, like, we're going to go kill the Russians.
00:03:24.000And so, the argument then goes, Well, Charlie, we have to back somebody because Vladimir Putin is evil.
00:04:04.000So a question that I think is necessary for us is: why does the American regime or the people that run our government, why are they all of a sudden so comfortable with associating with Nazis?
00:04:51.000Actually, my server doesn't even allow me to go to theintercept.com.
00:04:54.000So it says the reversal raises questions about Facebook blacklist-based content moderation, which critics say lacks nuance and context.
00:05:03.000It says here, quote, Facebook will temporarily allow its billions of users to praise the Azov Battalion, a Ukrainian neo-Nazi military unit previously banned for being freely discussed under the company's dangerous individuals and organizations policy.
00:05:20.000Just to give you an idea, the Azov battalion makes the people that went to Charlottesville, which was obviously bigoted and hateful, the people that were involved in the racial part of Charlottesville, even though there were a lot of people there that were there for the statue and Trump was right in the way he described it.
00:05:42.000It was a lot more nuanced than that, but it makes it look like child's play.
00:05:47.000Look, I'm not one to kind of be like alarmist about this stuff.
00:05:51.000I think that these terms are used way too generously and loosely.
00:06:00.000This is actually the chance to use it.
00:06:02.000So the media will happily call almost everyone neo-Nazi sympathizers except actual neo-Nazi sympathizers.
00:06:11.000And I think we have actually built pretty, let's say, considerable credibility here because we're not the ones calling everybody Nazis all the time.
00:06:21.000We're very careful to use that because I think that the atrocities of the Holocaust, the millions of people, some estimates show over 10 million people intentionally slaughtered in the Holocaust.
00:06:33.000That's not something to use around, but throw around like a frisbee like MSNBC and CNN does.
00:06:40.000Throw them around like everyone gets a pizza, like you're giving out cars at an Oprah Winfrey viewing.
00:06:45.000No, it's actually something you should be very careful because when everything becomes something, nothing becomes something.
00:06:53.000It is the dilution of the description of bigotry.
00:06:58.000The same way that we have inflated our dollars is the same way the media has been covering Nazism in America the last 10 years.
00:07:07.000If all of a sudden Donald Trump becomes a Nazi and his supporters all become not, well, then it's like, okay, well, then we can't even talk about it.
00:07:30.000Azov soldiers march and train wearing uniforms bearing icons of the Third Reich.
00:07:36.000Its leadership has reportedly courted American alt-right and neo-Nazi elements.
00:07:40.000And in 2010, the battalion's first commander and former Ukrainian parliamentarian, Andrei Bletsky, stated that Ukraine's national purpose was to, quote, lead the white races of the world in a final crusade against Semite-led Untermenschin.
00:08:41.000And then they had an inverse who are the Untermensches, the subhumans.
00:08:47.000This Ãœbermensch, Untermensch type philosophy that came from Friedrich Nietzsche and was, of course, then used by the entire National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany is now being repeated by people our taxpayer dollars are funding in Ukraine.
00:09:00.000And I don't want to hear the emails from people at freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:11:02.000You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
00:11:05.000They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
00:11:12.000So here's the deal: if you're struggling with back pain, neck pain, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted, only $19.95.
00:11:56.000I want to get to a little bit of Katanji Brown Jackson here as Katanji is in front of the United States Senate right now for potential confirmation.
00:12:10.000Senator Hirono, who wants to build highways from Los Angeles to Honolulu and also wants the Green New Deal to be ushered in and has told men to sit down and shut up, has pushed back against this idea that Katanji is the affirmative action pick, which of course she is.
00:12:41.000It's about time that we have a highly qualified, highly accomplished black woman on the Supreme Court.
00:12:47.000It's about time our highest court better reflects the country it serves.
00:12:53.000Yeah, it's not about affirmative action, but it actually is about the affirmative action because it's time that we have affirmative action.
00:12:59.000It's exactly what I expect from Senator Hirono.
00:13:02.000And by the way, no one's implying that Katanji was selected because of her race.
00:13:11.000We are very transparently saying it because Joe Biden said it.
00:13:18.000No one said, Joe Biden did not run for president saying that we are going to have people come.
00:13:26.000I'm not going to select people on the Supreme Court that are wise or that are steeped in constitutional experience.
00:13:32.000No, he said all along it's going to be a black female.
00:13:36.000Again, melanin content and chromosomes matter a lot.
00:13:51.000Now, we saw that with Rachel Dolizel, the former head of the, I want to say NAACP in Spokane, where it was the white woman who pretended to be a black person, who identified as a black person.
00:14:04.000That'll be really interesting when people start to try to change their race on it.
00:14:07.000So here's the real question, everybody.
00:14:09.000Can Leah Thomas, formerly William Thomas, become a black woman?
00:15:01.000Do you agree with Justice Breyer and Justice Ginberg that court packing is a bad idea?
00:15:07.000Well, respectfully, Senator, other nominees to the Supreme Court have responded as I will, which is that it is a policy question for Congress.
00:15:20.000And I am particularly mindful of not speaking to policy issues because I am so committed to staying in my lane.
00:15:39.000There's a chance this entire deal gets derailed.
00:15:43.000I don't know who in the Joe Biden kind of selection committee raised their hand and say, hey, let's go for the judge that was really soft on pedophiles and has a soft spot for terrorists.
00:15:56.000That'll help us with suburban women in Scottsdale.
00:16:01.000Play Cut 33, where Katanji Brown Jackson says sentencing guidelines for child pornography offenders are leading to extreme disparities in the system.
00:16:11.000But the way that the guideline is now structured, based on that set of circumstances, is leading to extreme disparities in the system because it's so easy for people to get volumes of this kind of material now by computers.
00:16:30.000Yeah, that sounds like justifying the crime to me.
00:16:35.000I don't know, Mark Kelly and Raphael Warnock.
00:16:38.000You guys are going to have some pretty tough Senate races.
00:16:40.000I don't know if you're going to want to go back to the voters and say, hey, I just put someone on the U.S. Supreme Court that's life's work was about trying to be lenient to pedophiles and gitmoterrorists.
00:18:13.000I think it's because of her reporting and because of her book that we're starting to see some rumblings from our federal law enforcement agencies in the direction of Hunter Biden.
00:18:24.000With us is Miranda Devine, author of the plainly titled but accurately titled book, The Laptop from Hell.
00:18:32.000Miranda, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:18:47.000It's sold a lot of copies to people on our side of the fence.
00:18:52.000But really, there was this wall between conservatives and people who are, you know, perhaps Trump voters who didn't vote for Joe Biden and the people who read the New York Times and watch CNN and MSNBC and just were kept in the dark by their favored organs before the election.
00:19:12.000And until 17 months later, last week, the New York Times broke that wall just a little, just a little chink by admitting that, yes, the laptop from hell, Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop, is real and they had authenticated emails on it.
00:19:30.000I mean, we did that 17 months ago, you know, basically at the New York Post.
00:19:35.000That was your previous guest, Emma Joe Morris, my friend, my colleague.
00:19:39.000She did a brilliant job of doing the due diligence that was necessary.
00:19:43.000And we also had Tony Bobolinski, who you didn't need the laptop.
00:19:48.000You could just talk to Tony Bobolinski, who was a very credible businessman who got caught up in the Hunter Biden mess and a patriot, a naval veteran.
00:20:10.000We published the material that he gave us, which was, you know, it corroborated what was on the laptop and it augmented it.
00:20:19.000And then there was the Chuck Grasley and Ron Johnson inquiry, which already, about a month before we published our stories, had already started laying down the paper trail, the documents that showed all this millions of dollars.
00:20:34.000It ended up being tens of millions of dollars coming out of Chinese and Russian and Ukrainian shady coffers into the bank accounts in America of Joe Biden's family members and their business partners.
00:20:49.000Yeah, I mean, Peter Schweitzer said, if you look at the three big flashpoints in American foreign policy, Ukraine, Russia, and China, the Biden family has received millions of dollars from every single one of them.
00:20:59.000And the laptop really talked about that in so many words.
00:21:03.000I want to play a piece of tape here: a former CIA officer Mike Baker, who slams the laptop from hell cover-up.
00:21:14.000I love this topic in a sense, not so much because of whatever the Hunter was up to, but in part because now when you look at the liberals, Dems and the progressives, it doesn't matter to them.
00:21:27.000If you read some of the narrative that is out there now, the social media in the past day or so, ever since the New York Times came out with this, they're just dismissive of it.
00:21:37.000And they don't care or they're willing to overlook it, which is the same thing they accuse the right of doing.
00:21:46.000Now, before Miranda, I ask you to react.
00:21:48.000The one thing this entire story has taught me, and it's been an unfortunate revelation, is the New York Times actually still does have credibility in a lot of people's eyes.
00:21:57.000It's that as soon as the New York Times says it, now all of a sudden it's allowed to kind of go through mainstream circuitry.
00:22:18.000But unfortunately, you know, the New York Times sets the agenda for a lot of the media.
00:22:22.000I remember Project Veritas had this great leaked conversation that Jeff Zucker and his news executives, the day of our story back in October of 2020.
00:22:36.000And he said, I'm not, I don't want you following this story.
00:22:43.000I mean, this was fresh information and it went to the credibility and the integrity of one of the two candidates for president.
00:22:51.000And it's the media's role, their job, to do the due diligence on behalf of the American voter.
00:22:59.000And I have some very interesting polling that I've seen that is still in progress.
00:23:05.000There'll be more polling done overnight.
00:23:08.000But eventually this week, I will be reporting on it, showing that really increasingly more and more Americans are awake to the laptop story.
00:23:20.000They didn't know before the election, but this past year, these past few months, and especially now with the New York Times illuminating their readers to there is actually a story in this, more and more voters are aware of it.
00:23:38.000And they also have a very dim view of Joe Biden and his integrity.
00:23:44.000So there are rumblings now that Hunter Biden might be indicted, that his former lover or wife or whatever, someone that came out that said that.
00:23:54.000It seems that he's being investigated, we know, for the tax issues and potential foreign registration issues.
00:24:01.000Do you think this might just be kind of bluster?
00:24:04.000Do you think he's an untouchable figure?
00:24:07.000Or do you believe based on what you've seen and reported on from the laptop, the evidence is so overwhelming that any U.S. attorney that wants to be able to look at his prosecutors in the eye has to move on this evidence?
00:24:23.000And apparently the U.S. attorney David Weiss in Delaware has been investigating Hunter Biden on tax evasion, money laundering.
00:24:32.000And as you say, the FARA registration, FARA violations.
00:24:36.000And since at least 2018, the New York Times tells us it predates that.
00:24:41.000But we know for sure since 2018, we know that there were subpoenas sent out to one of Hunter's banks looking for his statements also of his uncle Jim and two of his partners, Eric Schwerin and Devon Archer.
00:24:56.000And particularly, they asked for anything to do with the Bank of China.
00:25:01.000So we also know that there have been several people trooping down to Delaware to testify before a grand jury there.
00:25:08.000And one of those was, you just mentioned London Roberts, who was the former stripper who was the father of, or is the father of Hunter Biden's unacknowledged fifth child.
00:25:20.000And that is a little four-year-old girl.
00:25:23.000And London Roberts had to sue Hunter basically for paternity to prove that it was his child.
00:26:07.000You know, when it comes to the Farah violations, well, if he should be able to retrospectively register as a foreign agent.
00:26:15.000Yeah, if only Paul Manafort was given that kind of opportunity, right?
00:26:20.000Which was the crux of his entire indictment, right?
00:26:22.000Which is you were doing oligarch representation and we're going to get you because you have a bunch of mink coats so you didn't register or whatever.
00:27:39.000Because the children of the elite are usually untouchable regardless of the crime, right?
00:27:45.000Usually there's a way to cover this up.
00:27:47.000Now, maybe the laptop exposed that to such an extent, but do you think that Joe Biden is more of a liability than a benefit right now to the aims and the ambitions of the entire machine?
00:28:16.000He's powerful, but he can't really intervene in an investigation by an independent, you know, U.S. attorney who's been doing this for four years.
00:28:30.000And I'm sure that every concession that can be made will be made, as happened in the case with Devin Archer, one of Hunter's business partners.
00:28:41.000If you're connected, you are going to have every generous concession that the legal system can provide you.
00:28:50.000And he will have the best lawyers that money can buy.
00:28:53.000So we'll see, you know, whether criminal charges are, whether these are turned into civil charges, you know, if charges are brought at all.
00:29:01.000But ultimately, as Hunter himself said with great relief in his memoir, Beautiful Things, his father is president and he has pardon power.
00:29:11.000So I think what they'll try and do, what Joe will try and do with his people, will be to just extend the legal process as long as possible into his term, as they have done with Devon Archer.
00:29:24.000Just keep kicking the can down the road so that he can finally pardon people like his son and his former partners that he needs to at the very end of his presidency.
00:29:34.000And he will get away with that because you know the way the media is and they always, he always presses on this empathy, this grief issue, because he has had terrible tragedies in his life.
00:29:48.000He'll mention Bill Biden and it will be the end of that.
00:29:55.000I don't think he would be president today if he hadn't been able to use those tragedies.
00:30:00.000I'm not saying they weren't tragedies and that he doesn't deserve sympathy, but not to the extent where it excuses corruption and real bad behavior that now has an impact on America's national security.
00:30:44.000If you don't know what a VPN is, it stands for a virtual private network.
00:30:47.000ExpressVPN is an app that encrypts 100% of your network data and reroutes it through a secure server.
00:30:52.000This is especially important when you use public Wi-Fi.
00:30:55.000Not only can the admins see everything you're doing, but hackers connected to the same network can steal your account logins and financial details.
00:31:02.000Because they engineered their own VPN protocol, all the other major VPNs have the same off-the-shelf protocol.
00:31:09.000Look, it's like making Brownies using a mix.
00:31:11.000Sure, you might add an extra egg in there or a dash of vanilla to give it an edge, but the foundation is still the same.
00:31:18.000This level of bespoke technology is what allows ExpressVPN, the best VPN out there, to provide superior speeds and enhance privacy and protection.
00:31:28.000You need to use a VPN every time you go online.
00:31:30.000If you haven't used one yet, visit expressvpn.com slash charterly and get three extra months free.

00:31:44.000So now we're going to get into a piece of tape here.
00:31:47.000So Senator Ben Sasse was on a news channel talking about the Ukraine-Russian situation.
00:31:53.000I have a lot of respect for Ben Sasse, even though I think he's been really unfairly nasty to Donald Trump, and that kind of fractured our relationship.
00:32:01.000Used to speak at turning point USA events and just don't see things.
00:32:05.000It wasn't just because of the Trump thing.
00:32:06.000It was just kind of a more general kind of conservative movement deal.
00:32:11.000I think he's a smart person, but I think he's totally wrong about this Ukrainian situation.
00:32:15.000We're going to walk through exactly why.
00:32:18.000So there is a belief system that American values and what happened in 1776 can be teleported, can be outsourced to any place on the planet at any time.
00:32:35.000Now, that is a tempting thing to believe, and that is at the root of neoliberalism.
00:32:41.000At the root of neoliberalism is a belief that, okay, 1776 was about all people being equal.
00:32:49.000Therefore, all nations at any time can embrace these values.
00:32:57.000It says when in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands that have tied them to the other, deriving the powers, the separate but equal stations of powers of the laws of nature and nature is God.
00:33:11.000However, we now know, and the founders knew too, not every country is prepared or ready for a free society, self-government, and individual liberty.
00:33:25.000Not every country has the ground that is fertile for a self-government structure.
00:33:32.000So let's play Ben Sasse, and then we'll build this out a little bit further.
00:33:35.000He was on Fox News Sunday, play cut 52.
00:33:38.000Government doesn't give us our rights.
00:33:40.000Raw rights come to us from God, and government is just a shared tool to secure them.
00:33:45.000And you see that spirit, that American Philadelphia 1787 spirit in Zelensky right now.
00:34:02.000He's going to the Constitutional Convention, which was the all-summer-long convention chaired by George Washington, who said very little of the heated debate.
00:34:10.000They sent Jefferson to France because they knew he'd mess it all up, of the heated debates to get, and that's a joke, of course.
00:34:15.000Jefferson just happened to be a very strong believer in small government and awfully passionate about this stuff.
00:34:21.000The point is that, so Sas is saying, I'm seeing the same sort of passion in Zelensky.
00:34:26.000I'm sorry, Zelensky just banned 11 political parties in Ukraine.
00:34:31.000Zelensky is partnering with Nazis in southeastern Ukraine.
00:34:35.000What exactly does that remind you of when it comes to the spirit of 1787 and the American founding?
00:34:44.000Just because people are saying they want freedom does not mean they actually are truly willing to embrace it, and they even know what that means.
00:34:53.000An example of this, of course, is Liberia.
00:34:57.000Liberia literally was supposed to be the land of liberty.
00:35:02.000It was founded by former black slaves from the United States and the Caribbean.
00:35:06.000The flag of Liberia is almost identical to the flag of America.
00:35:10.000In fact, the Constitution of Liberia was modeled after the Constitution of the United States.
00:35:15.000Why is it that if Liberia founded in 1847 has not been known as the land of liberty and freedom, why is it that the country that is between Cote d'Ivoire, Guinea, and Sierra Leone, why is that not mentioned as one of the freest countries in the world?
00:35:32.000The reason is because Liberia did not go through the multiple hundreds of years, the prerequisites, the building of the foundational base that eventually landed on that one decade that changed all of humanity in 1776 to 1791, from the Declaration to the final ratification of Bill of Rights.
00:35:55.000It was the tough work of the reflection on the human being, the tough work of spreading biblical values across all 13 colonies, the tough work of 13 self-government experiments of learning how to actually get this done when finally the moment came forward where they were ready for self-government.
00:36:19.000You can't just parachute in with a copy of the Constitution to Ukraine, which knows nothing but oligarchic rule and corruption and top-down secular government.
