Also, former Governor Rod Blagojevich talks about why we need to kick the Democratic Party out of America, and why Joe Biden is not a good enough choice for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. And why the media should have been paying attention to what was going on at the Democratic National Convention, not what was being said by the Obama campaign and the White House press corps.

00:00:39.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:02:22.000And, you know, I think it's fair to say that when You know, we call it a democratic convention.
00:02:28.000It's really a socialist convention masquerading as a democratic convention.
00:02:32.000It's a very different party and very different people in it with different priorities who are very angry and really don't seem to like our country like they should.
00:02:43.000I totally agree, and when I was walking the halls there, I don't feel a patriotic spirit.
00:02:50.000It feels very ideological and much more focused on, I would say, a nihilistic political agenda than patriotism or love of country.
00:03:01.000And interestingly, I didn't see any families at the DNC, and that was a big contrast versus what I saw at the RNC.
00:03:07.000Last night, the Obamas gave a couple speeches.
00:03:44.000He's impressive in that respect, but he's a man with no convictions and he's probably, I would say, the most duplicitous politician in the business of duplicitous politicians.
00:03:54.000And that was on display last night when he went out of his way to praise Joe Biden, when he's the reason why Joe Biden got dumped from the Democratic ticket.
00:04:03.000He's the reason why 14 million Democratic primary voters were treated as suckers by Obama and the Democratic bosses who chose Someone not chosen by the voters.
00:04:15.000So he's not for real, but it served him well.
00:04:20.000He's come a long way being a fake guy that he is.
00:04:23.000So, help me understand why rank-and-file Democrats are putting up with the idea that they were completely disenfranchised in the primary.
00:04:31.000And it wasn't as if the primary voters voted for both Biden and Harris.
00:04:50.000Well, I think rank-and-filed activist Democrats are willing to forego democracy because, you know, democracy to them is really just a means to their socialist ends and their kind of lunatic, crazy idea ends.
00:05:03.000And they're more interested in using Marxist tactics, like, for example, weaponized prosecutors bringing fake criminal charges against the leading I guess the presidential candidate from the opposition party, they're all for that.
00:05:17.000They don't care about the rule of the law or the constitution.
00:05:20.000It's just about winning an election so that they can get their crazy left-wing policies put in place.
00:05:27.000And it's not about working people anymore, which is the reason why I was a Democrat, and while I think still most Democrats are.
00:05:33.000Now I think most Working people who are still Democrats today and there are millions of them across the country, though increasingly a lot of them have left to join this new Republican Party that Trump is building, which is a blue collar working class party.
00:05:46.000But I still think those Democrats really aren't aware of what their leaders are doing to them.
00:05:51.000And they're really not aware of how they're being lied to by their leaders.
00:05:54.000Um, and you know, it's really about priorities, Charlie.
00:05:57.000When you think about whose side you're on, you're supposed to pick a side when you're in politics, and that's why you choose a party.
00:06:03.000I became a Democrat because I always thought the Democrat party was for the little guy, the guy that worked in the factory, the woman who, you know, serves the sandwiches at the restaurants.
00:08:24.000But it was all the same old baloney, but he was on fire, and so were the Democrats, and you could sense it at that convention.
00:08:31.000That candidate and this party was going to win in November.
00:08:35.000I felt the same thing at the convention in Milwaukee, the same sort of energy, the same sort of enthusiasm from the Republican delegates and the Republican attendees there for President Trump.
00:08:46.000And my sense of this Democratic convention with the rhetoric that you're hearing, with the anarchists outside of the convention protesting, not dissimilar from what it was like in Chicago in 1968 with anti-war protesters.
00:09:01.000And the mood generally, and the anger that they're spitting forth, and the dishonesty of their rhetoric.
00:09:06.000It's a party that seems very desperate, believes that they're in trouble, and that their only solution to winning is to trump up fake charges against Donald Trump because Donald Trump has caught the attention of the forgotten Americans who've been ignored too long by the political establishment of both parties.
00:09:25.000You see, the movement that Trump is starting is really bipartisan, and people are catching on.
00:09:31.000I'm not the only Democrat out there who supported Trump.
00:09:34.000There are millions of Democrats who are supporting Trump and he's got the
00:09:37.000opportunity to get a lot more Democrats supporting him, including black voters
00:09:41.000who've been put aside by the Democrats, who put migrants over poor black people
00:09:46.000in the interest of poor black people, who push defund the police where here
00:09:50.000in Chicago, for example, if you're black, you're 20 times more likely to be a
00:09:54.000victim of a homicide than you are if you're white.
00:09:57.000And this kind of disrespect for the black community from the party that claims that it's for the black community, I think more and more black people are catching on.
00:10:05.000And Trump is reaching out to them in ways that the old Republican Party under Bush and Romney and Cheney, they never were interested in doing it.
00:10:12.000They were a corporate country club party.
00:10:14.000They didn't care about working people or black people.
00:10:18.000And this is why the Democrat establishment hates him so much, because they see he's taking away their voters and changing the political dialogue and the political alignment in America, and it threatens them and threatens their existence.
00:10:31.000So that's a long answer to your question about what the mood of the convention is.
00:10:40.000I'm a proud American, and that means if you come after me and my family, I'll be ready.
00:10:43.000That's why I rely on My Patriot Supply.
00:10:46.000Their mega three-month emergency food kit comes jam-packed with 33 varieties of filling and delicious foods.

00:11:23.000Go to MyPatriotSupply.com and save $300 on your mega three-month emergency food kit.
00:13:08.000And I know President Trump a little bit.
00:13:11.000But of all of them, he is the most real and the most authentic and the least political.
00:13:17.000And again, one of the reasons why they come after him like they do is because they're frankly, they don't know how to deal with somebody who's as real as he is, because they're so full of it.
00:13:25.000And they believe that their duplicity and their hypocrisy and just lying with a straight face when they know they're doing it.
00:13:32.000They don't think it's immoral or unethical.
00:13:34.000You know what they think it is, Charlie?
00:13:36.000They think this is just These are just the tools of the trade.
00:14:23.000Lincoln said you can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all the people all of the time.
00:14:42.000potentially that could get behind Trump, Tulsi Gabbard.
00:14:46.000If you were to advise President Trump for the growing Trumpocrat movement, What policies, what messaging can we maybe peel off a couple million more Trumpocrats into the MAGA movement, which could be decisive?
00:15:05.000Reach out to the black community, go into Detroit, go into Philadelphia, go into Pittsburgh, go into Milwaukee, go into Atlanta, go into Phoenix, and go into Las Vegas, and talk about how the Democrat Party, led by Joe Biden, as a senator who wrote the bill, and Bill Clinton who signed it, 1994 crime bill that over-sentenced first-time non-violent drug offenders who disproportionately are Black to these long, long sentences that gave them no chance at a second chance.
00:15:34.000And it led to what a very liberal Black author named Michelle Alexander has called the new Jim Crow in America.
00:15:41.000And then contrast that with his record, the First Step Act, Which was a sensible step towards bringing some sense of justice and mercy to a system that addressed those ills that Biden and Clinton and the Democrats did to the black community.
00:15:57.000I would talk about economic issues and I would talk about how Kamala Harris Supports defunding the police because most black voters don't want to defund the police.
00:16:08.000They recognize they need more police because violent crime in the black communities is dramatically higher than it is where white people live.
00:16:35.000We had last month saving babies with preborn by providing ultrasounds.
00:16:38.000And we're doing again this year what we did last year.
00:16:41.000We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.
00:16:46.000As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, and we're not going to do nothing.
00:16:52.000Your gift to preborn will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.
00:18:36.000Number two, there was no greater sign of the Democrats' depravity and desire to pervert the next generation than them allowing for a Planned Parenthood bus to roll up on the scene and offer abortions and vasectomies To interested participants outside of the arena in Chicago.
00:18:53.000This was absolutely disgusting and it showcases how much the Democrats truly these days are anti-life in their messaging and in their actions.
00:19:01.000What we decided to do, as a reminder, we created a company called Every Life.
00:19:06.000It's the fastest growing baby brand in the world right now and it is also the only Pro-life, pro-family, diaper and wipes brand.
00:19:13.000We decided to show up at the DNC as well.
00:19:16.000And we actually partnered with Sidewalk Advocates for Life to offer women who would choose life.
00:19:23.000And while the Democrats are singing messages of destruction, we are trying to celebrate a message of life and hope and family and faith.
00:19:41.000And that's exactly what we decided to do at the DNC and thankfully we've had quite a reception there in Chicago.
00:19:58.000Well, Every Life, you can find us at everylife.com, is the only pro-life, pro-family diaper company in the United States.
00:20:04.000This always shocks people when I share this, but every single major other diaper brand in the United States today is either vocally or financially pro-abortion, whether it's Coterie or Honest or Hello Bello or Pampers.
00:20:17.000These companies, in many cases, actually donate to Planned Parenthood, which is absurd, not just morally, but also economically.
00:20:23.000It makes no sense, but it shows you how much this Socially progressive driven company corporatism has really infected the United States economy.
00:20:34.000What we've decided to do is actually celebrate life in every purchase.
00:20:38.000We give back as a portion of our proceeds through our Buy for a Cause program to pregnancy resource centers.
00:20:43.000We have over 600 that we're in partnership with around the country.
00:20:46.000We have deep partnerships with over 300 churches.
00:20:49.000So if you are a parent and you're looking for diapers or wipes that are clean ingredients,
00:20:54.000that are high in quality, a premium product, and celebrate and affirm the value
00:20:59.000in every single innocent life, we'd love for you to partner with us at EveryLife.
00:21:03.000Here at the DNC, we wanted to be intentional to make sure that while the Democrats are pushing a message that is anti-life on its face, we are actually celebrating the innate value in every single God-designed human being from the moment of conception.
00:21:18.000And we hope that this message of hope through our brand, EveryLife, ultimately spreads across the country and eventually around the world.
00:21:24.000So help me understand this, that the Planned Parenthood has a mobile truck where they have now terminated 25 babies.
00:21:32.000So 25 babies have been terminated at the DNC and they are bragging about it.
00:21:47.000This is considered to be great and really praised by the leadership of the Democrat Party.
00:21:54.000This is honored and acknowledged by them as being terrific.
00:22:00.000So can you please, Michael, tell us, typical corporate America right now, corporate America is in alignment with Planned Parenthood and they find nothing wrong with this.
00:22:14.000Talk about what your company is doing in disagreement, obviously, with what Planned Parenthood is doing.
00:22:21.000And I think that what people need to understand, what people need to realize, is that the Planned Parenthood agenda is articulated and held by major corporations in this country.
00:22:36.000In fact, 300 of the largest companies in the United States, after the overturning of Roe v. Wade two years ago, came out and said, not only are we in support of Planned Parenthood, but we're actually going to fund our employees' abortions.
00:22:58.000These are companies like Procter & Gamble.
00:23:00.000These are companies like Starbucks or Lululemon.
00:23:03.000Some of the main staples of the American economy.
00:23:06.000And it's heartbreaking to witness, not only is it very anti-life in nature, but going deeper than that, it's also very sinister for a corporation to actually fund the demise of your family unit.
00:23:18.000And they will say that it's because we support a women's right to choose.
00:23:22.000But in reality, what Amazon actually cares about is making sure that you stay the cog in the wheel that they need you to be.
00:23:28.000They can't deal with the idea that you would take paternity leave and that you would actually leave the corporate entity for a few months or, God forbid, would actually decide to stay home with your kids.
00:23:38.000They can't handle that loss in productivity.
00:23:40.000So what they'll do instead is say, we care about women's rights.
00:23:47.000And Charlie, what we've done in response to this is not only celebrating life with our brand, partnering with pregnancy resource centers to ensure that we're giving actual free diapers to mothers in need.
00:23:56.000For our own staff, we have 120 team members now on full-time staff.
00:24:00.000When any of our staff, Charlie, has a baby or adopts, we actually give a $5,000 after-tax baby bonus to our employees.
00:24:09.000We believe ultimately that strong families will build a strong company, just like strong families build a strong nation.
00:24:15.000And right now, our birth rate is sinking dramatically across our country.
00:24:19.000The last thing we need to do is incentivize the demise of the family unit.
00:24:24.000We need to celebrate the growth of our population.
00:24:26.000We need to celebrate the growth of the individual families that are making up our companies and our country.
00:24:32.000And that's what we're proud to do at EveryLife.
00:24:34.000Why do you think that corporate America is so on board for this depopulation agenda?
00:24:38.000Is it that we want you to have no kids so you can be better obedient corporate slaves to whatever ridiculous company that they're employed by?
00:24:50.000It is certainly about upping productivity, so they believe, within their workforce.
00:24:55.000We actually find the opposite, though, by the way.
00:24:57.000We find that the best employees that feel like they can have the most longevity and sustainability at our company are the ones that feel like their company has their back to build their families in strength and for them to be able to engage in their community.
00:25:10.000Corporate America falsely believes that if they incentivize the destruction of your family unit, that somehow they will receive greater productivity out of you, that you'll work into your 30s and 40s and 50s childless.
00:25:24.000And because of that, you'll be a more productive agent for their bottom line.
00:25:27.000There's also an immigration play here, Charlie.
00:25:29.000The major corporate entities that dominate our country don't love American labor.
00:25:34.000At the end of the day, they want immigrant labor.
00:25:36.000So they don't really care that the American birth rate is pummeling because they can get Lower wages to pay to foreign-born workers that are coming into the United States.
00:25:44.000This is why we've seen foreign-born job growth skyrocket over the last five years, while native-born job growth has actually stayed completely stagnant.
00:25:55.000And this is all part of the same agenda.
00:25:58.000They don't care if Americans are having less children, as long as we're opening the borders and flooding in immigrants that can do the same job for a lot cheaper.
00:26:18.000And I hope that consumers take that to heart.
00:26:20.000I certainly hope that employees of these corporate entities take that to heart as well.
00:26:24.000Corporations and government Are in bed together in order to fully incentivize the destruction of the family unit in the United States, open our borders to allow for lower wages and depress American workers and American small businesses in the process.
00:26:40.000You exist as a show to not only call these issues out, but also be the agents of change that are trying to push back against this destruction and demise.
00:26:48.000So help, just one minute remaining, plug the website again and then I want to talk about Kamala Harris's economic policies and what that would mean for the entrepreneurs at Public Square.
00:26:56.000But remind the audience how they could support one more time.
00:27:01.000Well, the best way you can get started in supporting our brand and our mission is by heading to everylife.com.
00:27:06.000You'll find out a lot there, whether you're a parent, a grandparent wanting to purchase diapers for maybe your kids or your grandkids.
00:27:14.000If you are someone who maybe doesn't have children, but you just want to support the mission, you can actually engage in our Buy for a Cause program.
00:27:21.000And you can find out all of that at everylife.com.
00:27:24.000Related to Kamala's economic policies, Charlie, it is absurd to me that not only has she proposed price controls, which is literal communism, it's been tried before.
00:27:35.000If you look at Maduro, you look at Soviet era Russia, if you look at China and the Great Leap Forward, time and time again, price controls, especially related to food, have always been the first pin to drop that ends up destroying your entire economy.
00:27:49.000But to go further than that, And to promote things like a 28% corporate tax or a 44% capital gains tax, which is in alignment with Biden's previous proposals, or the most absurd, a 25% tax on unrealized gains, you are going to destroy the innovative and entrepreneurial spirit that has built this country because no longer will there be any incentive for us to build businesses.
00:28:35.000From irrigation to cultivation and transportation, food production is at an all-time high.
00:28:39.000And purification and pumping systems are delivering the world's cleanest water.
00:28:43.000So much so that 3.6 billion people considered energy poor are beginning to flourish, even as Kamala Harris and AOC wish to drive them back to the Stone Ages and miserable poverty with the Green New Deal.
00:28:53.000I'm Charlie Kirk, and I just want you to know the facts.
00:28:56.000Go to oilfacts.com and get educated today on these critical facts.
00:28:59.000and the need for American energy and what we can do to keep billions from catastrophic deaths from
00:29:04.000happening. These facts are irrefutable. Go to oilfacts.com.
00:29:07.000That is oilfacts.com. These facts are brought to you by the Prairie Operating Group,
00:29:12.000dedicated to safe and responsible production of American energy. So Michael, let's go further into Kamala
00:29:20.000Unrealized capital gains from the inheritance tax to her war on American energy.
00:29:25.000You represent more small businesses than any other organization out there.
00:29:28.000What would this mean to the American job-creating entrepreneur?
00:29:32.000Well, Charlie, we ran a recent survey of our business community.
00:29:35.000And as a reminder, we have over 84,000 small business merchants in our community at Public Square.
00:29:41.000And over half of them said that if Kamala were to win and to implement her policy agenda, they would no longer be able to survive as a small business.
00:29:52.000So if you're an entrepreneur in this country and you're looking over the next four years and you have hopes for building a business that can positively impact your consumers and your investors and your community, You should really rush to the ballots and to these polling booths in November and make sure that your vote is cast for economic liberty, because that is what is on the line.
00:30:13.000For example, if you look at the unrealized capital gains, if you're an employee or you're a startup founder and you're trying to build a business and you're in the early stages, much of your compensation is actually in stock.
00:30:24.000You don't want to drain the company of cash.
00:30:27.000Do you actually elect for stock options or restricted stock units in the hopes that one day
00:30:33.000you will actually be able to cash in and earn income in accordance with the blood, sweat and tears
00:31:09.000And then on top of it, what about in the meantime?
00:31:12.000Anytime your portfolio goes up in value, even if you don't actually sell those shares, having to actually pay a 25% tax on the unrealized gain with money you don't have because you never sold the shares in the first place, This would kill the American economy in a very material way.
00:31:30.000That's right, and we need to wake up as many entrepreneurs as possible to the pro-growth agenda and the job-creating and wealth-creating agenda of President Donald Trump.
00:31:39.000And we see tonight Governor Tim Walz is going to be speaking, which to our prior conversation is connected to some of the most radical pro-abortion policies in the entire country.
00:31:51.000What are your entrepreneurs telling you about this election, Michael, as their top concerns and even their political preferences?
00:31:58.000Well, if you flash all the way back to the primary, the Republican primary, 92% of our businesses were in favor of President Donald J. Trump.
00:32:07.000So even before the general election actually started, our businesses said, I remember what life was like from 2016 to 2020, and I want that economic environment again.
00:32:17.000Donald J. Trump proved that he was able to pull it off the first time.
00:32:36.000And ultimately, as we near the election right now, they're not only in favor of the economic policies that President Trump has proven works, they're also so vehemently opposed to the policies that you're starting to see out of Harris and Walz and what that agenda would actually look like.
00:32:52.000Also, for the Minnesota-specific business owners, they remember very well what COVID was like under Tim Walz.
00:32:58.000They have long memories and they remember how Governor Tim Walz imposed the most strict lockdowns in this entire country.
00:33:05.000They remember what it was like to face these lockdowns, but then for him to turn around and have no problem with Minneapolis being burnt to the ground.
