00:00:36.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:37.000 Here we go.
00:00:38.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:40.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:42.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:46.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:47.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:50.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:51.000 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.
00:00:59.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries.
00:01:03.000 Destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:08.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:12.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at AndrewandTod.com.
00:01:20.000 How should we respond?
00:01:22.000 By strongly worded op eds, tweets, maybe a hearing or two.
00:01:27.000 How should Republicans respond to Fulton County?
00:01:30.000 I write in thefederalist.com, indict the left when politicians are tempted to prosecute their enemies for political reasons.
00:01:37.000 They must fear the same thing happening to them.
00:01:40.000 There are 27 Republican attorneys general in the United States compared to 23 Democrats, but you wouldn't know.
00:01:46.000 Today, all the celebrity prosecutors are Democrats.
00:01:49.000 The left has an entire cast of politicians who make their careers by loudly hunting down supposed wrongdoers using whatever excuse they can manufacture.
00:02:00.000 So here is the dilemma the dilemma is do we return fire with fire?
00:02:08.000 Do we punch back twice as hard?
00:02:10.000 The Michigan Attorney General has indicted 16 senior citizens.
00:02:16.000 One in particular, by the name Rose Rook, Dana Nessel, believes that this person, Rose Rook, 81 year old Rose Rook, is a threat to our country, an insurrectionist.
00:02:31.000 81 year old.
00:02:32.000 That's it.
00:02:32.000 That's the face of what the regime fears the most faithful, patriotic.
00:02:40.000 Did she loot a department store? 0.93
00:02:41.000 Did she burn down a Wendy's? 1.00
00:02:44.000 Did she rape somebody? 1.00
00:02:46.000 That's Rose Rook, who is facing dozens of years in prison, 81 year old patriot. 1.00
00:02:52.000 For signing a piece of paper, a constitutional right to be an alternate elector, Dana Nessel is now making her have to defend herself criminally. 1.00
00:03:01.000 That's a Democrat attorney's general. 1.00
00:03:04.000 Now, I posted the Give, Send, Go account to support her.
00:03:07.000 I personally donated $500.
00:03:11.000 Yesterday, there was a little bit.
00:03:13.000 Over $7,000 raised for her.
00:03:15.000 Now there's over $17,000 raised for her. 1.00
00:03:17.000 So she's going to have a little bit of cushion and she deserves it so she can hire a good lawyer and defend herself.
00:03:24.000 We have to help these people. 0.99
00:03:25.000 Let's put that picture back up.
00:03:27.000 That's who they're going after.
00:03:29.000 And we have to take it.
00:03:31.000 And we currently are taking it.
00:03:32.000 So I asked the question of the Federalists what is the plan?
00:03:35.000 How should we respond?
00:03:36.000 We should indict the left.
00:03:39.000 Look into James Biden, for example.
00:03:41.000 Look into Hunter Biden.
00:03:42.000 They have allegedly done some clandestine, nefarious activities in red states.
00:03:47.000 BLM raised money in all 50 states.
00:03:50.000 Had a conversation with a Republican attorney's general yesterday, who I will not name.
00:03:55.000 And he said, Charlie, we do not have criminal authority.
00:03:58.000 I said, wait a second, how is it that Democrats then have the ability to indict people?
00:04:02.000 And why don't you just do the investigation and refer it to a local county prosecutor then?
00:04:07.000 I was curious.
00:04:08.000 I wasn't, I was just calling these people that I know and I was just asking questions.
00:04:12.000 Like, why is it that Fannie Will is Fannie, whatever?
00:04:17.000 And Dana Nessel can do this and Alvin Bragg and we don't.
00:04:21.000 And I received excuses.
00:04:23.000 Oh, that's not the way it works, I was told.
00:04:27.000 In fact, one of them, one attorney general, who's a nice person, Said, Charlie, we don't stoop down to the level of the Democrats.
00:04:38.000 That's an attorney general of a major Republican state who told me that.
00:04:42.000 He said, We don't fight that way.
00:04:44.000 And I asked him kind of point blankly, I said, Well, how do you think we're going to win?
00:04:49.000 And he said, This will pass.
00:04:51.000 He said, This too shall pass.
00:04:54.000 He told me that's what in the Bible.
00:04:55.000 I said, Well, that's actually not in the Bible.
00:04:57.000 That's folklore.
00:05:00.000 But that's a separate issue.
00:05:02.000 Why don't we fight the way?
00:05:04.000 That results in victories.
00:05:06.000 And from chatting with, and I'm not going to say their names because I'm going to hope that they course correct, because I was just asking questions.
00:05:15.000 My constitutional right as a citizen to ask people in elected office questions.
00:05:21.000 I said, they are coming after all of us.
00:05:24.000 They're coming after the rank and file, they're coming after Donald Trump.
00:05:29.000 And yet these are sweet people, but there's no plan, there's no willingness to act.
00:05:35.000 That was my big takeaway.
00:05:38.000 From talking to them.
00:05:40.000 In The Federalist, I wrote The cabal of prosecutors has existed for a while.
00:05:45.000 In New York, for instance, the Attorney General's office has spent years neutering the NRA with a legal offensive meant to shut it down or at least entirely disable it as a national political force, an offensive that has mostly succeeded.
00:05:58.000 Republicans have done no such thing because we don't fight that way.
00:06:02.000 We don't want it as badly.
00:06:04.000 And this is what animates me.
00:06:06.000 You want it.
00:06:07.000 The audience wants it.
00:06:09.000 Those of you that watch this program want it.
00:06:12.000 Republicans in elected office do not.
00:06:15.000 And we're not even saying to do anything political.
00:06:18.000 We're saying enforce the law against Democrats.
00:06:20.000 That's all we're saying.
00:06:22.000 I'm not even saying you have to make up laws.
00:06:24.000 I'm saying that BLM was the national state run religion for multiple months in 2020.
00:06:31.000 They were more popular than anything.
00:06:34.000 They were able to act with impunity and they raised money from all 50 states.
00:06:39.000 And now we know that BLM likely broke charitable laws in all 50 states.
00:06:46.000 Importantly, they solicited money from all 50 states, from Patrice Cullors to spending money on mansions to her sugar daddy.
00:06:57.000 And we know why Republican AGs do not want to go after BLM.
00:07:02.000 They don't want to be called racist, obviously.
00:07:05.000 So BLM is going to get away with it.
00:07:08.000 Every single one of these AGs could open an investigation into charitable fraud or into Antifa, into any one of these activities.
00:07:16.000 But instead, you know what one of the AGs who I spoke to told me said, well, we're suing the Biden administration on 10 different things.
00:07:24.000 I said, that, that's not the point.
00:07:26.000 Yes, I'm glad you're civilly suing them in federal court.
00:07:29.000 Terrific.
00:07:30.000 Great.
00:07:30.000 You're suing them on the student loan thing or whatever.
00:07:32.000 This is different.
00:07:34.000 You guys have been doing that for 20 years.
00:07:36.000 That's technical policy stuff.
00:07:38.000 We're talking about something that is much more fundamental.
00:07:43.000 Will you enforce the law against Democrats?
00:07:48.000 Who are able to act with complete treachery against the American people?
00:07:52.000 Handcuffs and leg irons.
00:07:54.000 That's what we need.
00:07:56.000 The solution is perp walks, investigations.
00:08:00.000 It's not happy talk.
00:08:01.000 Well, I'm suing civilly.
00:08:03.000 Or the excuses they give is, well, we don't have the jurisdiction.
00:08:07.000 Yes, you do.
00:08:09.000 You're the state's top law enforcement officer.
00:08:12.000 If you are not able to prosecute it, then find a local DA where the crime was committed and then they can prosecute it.
00:08:20.000 You have Fannie Willis, who has 18 people indicted that are going to have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to defend themselves.
00:08:28.000 Each on a RICO case, minimum five year sentence for watching cable television and sending out tweets and things that happened in Pennsylvania.
00:08:38.000 Fannie Willis, a local DA, is prosecuting a national conspiracy case, ruining the lives of literally half the conservative movement Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, John Eastman, Donald Trump.
00:08:51.000 And I got excuses.
00:08:52.000 And so I just started to make phone calls because I was angry.
00:08:55.000 I don't sit idly by well.
00:08:57.000 And people say, well, she doesn't have jurisdiction.
00:09:00.000 But she does have something that's awfully helpful. 0.80
00:09:05.000 She has the media. 0.99
00:09:06.000 She's going to be able to push the boundaries on this because the entire regime media is slobbering over Big Fannie Willis.
00:09:16.000 Right here, this beautiful picture of Fannie Willis. 0.94
00:09:22.000 Yeah, when I think of modern beauty, I think of Fannie Willis.
00:09:27.000 Racketeering Act is key in Georgia in case versus Trump.
00:09:31.000 Front page of the New York Times.
00:09:33.000 We're going to go through this, how the New York Times is covering it.
00:09:35.000 Yeah, we don't have the media.
00:09:36.000 Who cares? 0.92
00:09:37.000 Do it anyways.
00:09:38.000 You are demanding it.
00:09:39.000 The people are demanding it.
00:09:42.000 Your leaders are not listening.
00:09:44.000 I can say that from somebody who spoke to them on the phone and just asked questions.
00:09:48.000 All I did, why, why, why, why?
00:09:50.000 And I got excuses.
00:09:51.000 And they said, well, we're suing the Biden administration.
00:09:54.000 If this continues, we're going to lose everything.
00:09:56.000 And I think you guys know that.
00:09:58.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
00:10:01.000 Don't miss the most inspirational movie of the summer.
00:10:04.000 Briar Cliffs Entertainment's The Hill, starring Dennis Quaid.
00:10:06.000 In theaters Friday, August 25th.
00:10:08.000 The true life story of professional baseball player Ricky Hill.
00:10:10.000 Growing up poor in small town Texas, young Ricky discovers his extraordinary ability for hitting a baseball.
00:10:16.000 But with leg braces and a degenerative spinal disease, the major leagues were just a dream that could never be.
00:10:21.000 Courageously, he risks it all.
00:10:23.000 Defying his father's wish to follow in his footsteps to become a pastor, Ricky tries out for a major league scout.
00:10:28.000 Pushing hard to overcome his disability, he goes on to become a baseball phenomenon.
00:10:33.000 Some dreams are unbreakable.
00:10:34.000 The Hill, starring Dennis Quaid, Colin Ford, and Scott Glenn.
00:10:37.000 This true inspirational story about family, faith, and a baseball miracle.
00:10:42.000 Again, the story is about Ricky, who tries out as a major league scout, pushing hard to overcome the unthinkable.
00:10:49.000 Do not miss The Hill, rated PG in theaters, Friday, August 25th.
00:10:53.000 Get your tickets now.
00:10:54.000 Again, it's called The Hill, rated PG.
00:10:57.000 It's in theaters, Friday, August 25th.
00:10:59.000 Check out The Hill.
00:11:02.000 Front page of The New York Times The 19 charged in Georgia.
00:11:06.000 This is the front page of The New York Times.
00:11:09.000 Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, John Eastman, Jenna Ellis, Ray Smith, Kathy Latham, Sidney Powell, David Schaefer, Kenneth Chesborough, Sean Still, Michael Roman, Trevian Cootie, Stephen Lee, Jeffrey Clark, Misty Hampton, Willie Lewis, the Ford III, Scott Hall, and Robert Cheely.
00:11:26.000 This is why I don't like the lawyers that go on television.
00:11:31.000 The lawyers that go on television say, oh, well, you know, these charges will probably be thrown out or overturned.
00:11:38.000 Yeah, it's easy for you to say, you guys actually benefit from this.
00:11:41.000 Number one, you get on TV and you get to talk about it all the time.
00:11:44.000 Number two, some of you guys are going to be hired to represent these people, so you're going to make money.
00:11:49.000 And so they also have way too much trust in the legal system.
00:11:53.000 Who's going to pay these people's legal bills?
00:11:56.000 This is really important.
00:11:58.000 And obviously, people like Dershowitz deserve credit for this because they're speaking correctly.
00:12:05.000 But hold on a second.
00:12:06.000 What happens?
00:12:07.000 Let's just pick one of these people.
00:12:09.000 Let's say Jeffrey Clark, former Justice Department official.
00:12:13.000 To the best of my knowledge, Jeffrey Clark is not independently wealthy.
00:12:17.000 He's not a former tech executive and he doesn't have some sort of trust fund.
00:12:20.000 So, Jeffrey Clark now has to spend.
00:12:23.000 $200,000, probably minimum, to defend himself in an out of state case to prevent himself from getting a minimum five years in prison.
00:12:32.000 Who's going to pay for that?
00:12:35.000 Can you then ask for the government for reimbursement of legal costs?
00:12:39.000 Or how about the reputational harm?
00:12:41.000 No, of course, the government does whatever they want.
00:12:43.000 Now, you could sue eventually, civilly, to say, I want my legal costs back, but then that costs money too, and then that costs time.
00:12:50.000 And in Fulton County, you probably will lose.
00:12:55.000 And then, by the way, lots of lawyers may be scared to defend them.
00:12:57.000 So, even if all these charges get thrown out, even if all this goes to the Supreme Court, they've already won.
00:13:04.000 They're going to bankrupt these people.
00:13:06.000 And I could tell you what's amazing is I spoke to five top level conservative activists, five yesterday.
00:13:15.000 And they said, I kid you not, Charlie, are we allowed to be talking to elected officials anymore?
00:13:23.000 I said, what do you mean?
00:13:25.000 They said, well, based on this indictment, I don't think we're allowed to pressure our lawmakers.
00:13:30.000 They've chilled the entire conservative movement here.
00:13:34.000 I can't even put into words how heavy it is.
00:13:36.000 The chilling effect now is apparently it's illegal to ask for phone numbers.
00:13:42.000 I needed to get a phone number of an elected official in the state of Kansas for an event that we have coming up.
00:13:49.000 And I asked a conservative leader you would know, and I said, hey, do you have the phone number of this elected official?
00:13:56.000 And he said, Charlie, I think it's illegal for me to give it to you.
00:14:00.000 And I said, What do you mean?
00:14:01.000 And he said, I'm somewhat joking, but that's what the indictment is all about.
00:14:05.000 Here's the phone number.
00:14:06.000 Be careful.
00:14:09.000 And we're supposed to act like this is legitimate.
00:14:11.000 Asking for a phone number of your elected official can now get you indicted in Fulton County.
00:14:20.000 You might get picked up on a RICO case if you ask for a phone number, if you want to petition your government.
00:14:26.000 And the New York Times thinks this is beautiful.
00:14:30.000 If you're a conservative, not if you're a Democrat, if a Democrat, it's called petitioning your government and fighting for your democracy.
00:14:36.000 No, no, Democrats are allowed to burn down federal courthouses.
00:14:41.000 The number one takeaway of this indictment is the chilling effect.
00:14:46.000 Just kind of taking the pulse from donors and other people, they have flat out frightened half the country with this stuff.
00:14:54.000 This indictment, even more than the Department of Justice stuff, because of how widespread it is, the RICO.
00:15:00.000 And you might say, well, Charlie, it's all fake and they're not going to go.
00:15:02.000 That's not the point.
00:15:04.000 People do not want the knock on their door.
00:15:06.000 They don't want to have to spend money to defend themselves.
00:15:08.000 They don't want the reputational damage.
00:15:11.000 They've already won in that regard.
00:15:13.000 The conservative movement is terrified.
00:15:16.000 People want to just go to their kids' baseball game and not have to worry if a DA is going to come and they have to defend themselves and their reputation because they ask for a phone number.
00:15:23.000 So people are disengaging in huge numbers.
00:15:26.000 And look what they're doing in Michigan with Dana Nessel.
00:15:28.000 You sign a piece of paper and you're Rose Rook, you're 81 years old, and you're a proud patriot, they're going to destroy your life.
00:15:35.000 This is a well thought out intentional demoralization chilling campaign more than anything else.
00:15:42.000 Because I think deep down, Fannie Willis or Fannie or whatever says, okay, yeah, this might get thrown out, but I'm going to scare the crap out of the entire conservative movement, slow down their activism, shut up their speech.
00:15:51.000 I've already seen it.
00:15:52.000 People are terrified.
00:15:53.000 Like top level conservatives, top level donors are like, we're done.
00:15:57.000 I'm not going to, we're not going to do anything.
00:15:58.000 We're just going to kind of just do the most boring stuff because we do not want to get indicted.
00:16:03.000 Meanwhile, our side says we don't stoop low.
00:16:06.000 I want to talk about relieffactor.com.

00:16:46.000 So, I just have a question What are the new rules?
00:16:49.000 Because talking to some other conservative leaders, people say, Well, now we have to be extra careful.
00:16:52.000 I don't think we could talk to our lawmakers.
00:16:54.000 In the indictment, in the Fulton County indictment, which I have here somewhere.
00:16:58.000 Part of the indictment of furthering the criminal conspiracy is when Donald Trump asked for a phone number of the Speaker of the House of Pennsylvania.
00:17:05.000 You are no longer allowed to talk to your leaders, according to Fannie Willis.
00:17:09.000 Now, of course, that's going to be thrown out maybe by some judge, most likely, or challenged in court.
00:17:13.000 It doesn't matter.
00:17:14.000 The fact that they could even, with a straight faced indictment, indict you with that means that they could chill conservative activism.
00:17:21.000 And that's exactly what the intent of the Fannie Willis thing is.
00:17:25.000 The Fannie Willis thing is, yeah, about getting Trump, but that's more about DOJ, Jack Smith.
00:17:30.000 This is about the conservative movement.
00:17:32.000 Understand, Dana Nessel and Fannie Willis is more about the rank and file of MAGA than it is about Trump.
00:17:39.000 You know, they say, oh, this is about Donald Trump.
00:17:41.000 No, no, no.
00:17:41.000 They've used this is what's interesting.
00:17:43.000 They're actually using Trump as an excuse to go after the other ones, to go after Giuliani Eastman, Jenna Ellis, Sidney Powell.
00:17:52.000 Now, Axios says this Overt acts are not standalone allegations of criminality, and Trump was not charged for simply tweeting.
00:17:58.000 Rather, the legal term refers to a pattern of behavior supporting a broader criminal enterprise.
00:18:04.000 In this case, an alleged seven state conspiracy by 19 defendants and 30 unindicted co conspirators.
00:18:10.000 The indictment alleges that in some, Trump's 12 tweets, as well as his phone calls, text messages, and other activity by him and his allies, comprised elements of a conspiracy to subvert the election by people who knowingly spread election lies.
00:18:22.000 Time out.
00:18:23.000 In Time Magazine, Molly Ball wrote the shadow campaign that saved the 2020 election.
00:18:29.000 How is that not a conspiracy?
00:18:32.000 The term conspiracy means one or two people.
00:18:36.000 Working together for a desired aim or objective.
00:18:39.000 The conspiracy was asking lawmakers to follow the Constitution.
00:18:43.000 That now can land you in prison for a RICO statute.
00:18:47.000 We used to call that political activism.
00:18:50.000 Are you going to go lock up all the Democrat activists that were petitioning lawmakers in the 2000 election in Florida with the hanging Chads and the recounts?
00:19:00.000 That could land you in jail or prison.
00:19:03.000 How about Stacey Abrams, who 30 times denied the election results? 1.00
00:19:07.000 No, of course, Democrats do not have the law applied to them.
00:19:11.000 This is what's so important.
00:19:12.000 People call it two standards of justice.
00:19:13.000 It's not about hypocrisy, it's hierarchy.
00:19:16.000 If you believe that men can give birth and borders should be open and support Ukraine at all costs and white people are racist, if you believe America's a terrible country, you're a protected class. 0.56
00:19:27.000 You do whatever you want. 0.64
00:19:28.000 You can loot, you could burn, you could steal.
00:19:30.000 Your politics now instruct whether or not you're going to go to jail or not.
00:19:34.000 But if you engage in wrong think, like Rudy Giuliani or John Eastman or Mark Meadows, they're going to put you in prison.
00:19:40.000 It is the misapplication of justice as Cicero would say the more laws, the less justice.
00:19:44.000 They have all these laws, they dust them up, and they try to find that the only way this stops is if the bad guys are afraid that they too will be investigated and held accountable, because there's plenty of crimes to look into over there.
00:19:56.000 The great one, Mark Levin, picked up my article and spoke about it.
00:20:01.000 Now, I have so much respect for Mark Levin, and I do call him the great one.
00:20:05.000 I think he's amazing.
00:20:06.000 I don't know what clip it is, I can't see it here.
00:20:08.000 You guys could tell me which one it is.
00:20:12.000 But for Mark Levin to be speaking like this is a big deal.
00:20:15.000 He's former chief of staff to the attorney general.
00:20:17.000 He's not one to rush into a belief that we should use prosecutorial power against Democrats.
00:20:27.000 He's very measured.
00:20:27.000 He's very careful.
00:20:29.000 He's not clickbait.
00:20:31.000 But Mark Levin is asking the question where are the Republican AGs?
00:20:33.000 Where are the Republican DAs?
00:20:36.000 The message is starting to get out.
00:20:37.000 Play Cut 67.
00:20:38.000 It's frightening what's going on in this country.
00:20:42.000 But if you understand the bigger context, it's even more frightening than you might think.
00:20:48.000 The judiciary is in on it.
00:20:51.000 The Soros prosecutors, Democrat prosecutors.
00:20:53.000 You know, Charlie Kirk has a great piece over at The Federalist.
00:20:58.000 He's saying, you know, there are more Republican attorneys general in America than there are Democrat attorneys general.
00:21:03.000 There's 27, 23 Democrats.
00:21:07.000 And he's talking about also Republican district attorneys or state prosecutors and so forth.
00:21:13.000 And he's saying, he's not a lawyer, he's saying, as an example, Hunter Biden hired a call girl service.
00:21:21.000 In more than one state, that these call girls were used in more than one state, drug addict or no drug addict, he purchased drugs illegally in more than one state. 0.90
00:21:34.000 And he's not charged with a damn thing by a single Republican prosecutor. 0.81
00:21:38.000 Nothing. 0.53
00:21:40.000 Nothing.
00:21:41.000 The Democrat prosecutors are sitting there.
00:21:43.000 What can we do to Trump and his supporters?
00:21:45.000 Anything.
00:21:47.000 Anything we can do.
00:21:49.000 Sure. 0.53
00:21:50.000 We got the 1871 Klan Act. 0.91
00:21:52.000 We can throw that one.
00:21:54.000 And our media will lop it all up.
00:21:56.000 They'll be excited.
00:21:56.000 Get it to Maggie Haberman as fast as you can.
00:21:59.000 She's the go to propagandist for the government. 1.00
00:22:02.000 Let's try those Enron statutes.
00:22:04.000 We've used them on the protesters, and so far, all the judges in the D.C. area have supported.
00:22:09.000 I have a senator friend of mine that swears by one of these judges. 0.95
00:22:12.000 Well, he has done the same damn thing. 0.55
00:22:15.000 So sorry, I took a pass on that. 0.97
00:22:18.000 Just saying.
00:22:19.000 Now, the good news is our incessant banging of our fists on the table, begging for something to happen, it's getting out.
00:22:24.000 Now, I would tell you.
00:22:26.000 Go contact your AG and encourage them to enforce the law.
00:22:29.000 But am I breaking the law by doing that?
00:22:32.000 I'm getting messages, Charlie, we have to be careful.
00:22:34.000 Charlie, be careful.
00:22:35.000 Charlie, be careful.
00:22:36.000 It's not a joke.
00:22:37.000 We have received over 100 emails saying, Charlie, I'm confused.
00:22:41.000 Am I allowed to ask my lawmaker to do something now?
00:22:45.000 I cannot put accurately into words, I can't paint the picture of how chilling this is.
00:22:52.000 But yes, you are constant.
00:22:53.000 So we're not like totally in some sort of strange Orwellian universe.
00:22:57.000 You are constitutionally allowed to tell a person who's in elected office what you think they should do.
00:23:02.000 Even if you're wrong, you're allowed.
00:23:04.000 This is still the law of the land, the Constitution.
00:23:08.000 It's not some sort of Huxleyan, Orwellian, Stalinistic, Maoist document, even though Fannie Willis thinks it is.
00:23:16.000 You're allowed to speak still.
00:23:19.000 You're allowed to petition.
00:23:20.000 In fact, it's explicitly said in the First Amendment petition your government.
00:23:27.000 Petition.
00:23:29.000 And to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
00:23:34.000 So, when I go and I, and by the way, I was just asking questions, but theoretically, if I saw an AG in my state and I said, Hey, I got a problem with you, pal.
00:23:43.000 It's like the old Seinfeld thing on Festivus.
00:23:46.000 I got a lot of problems with you people.
00:23:49.000 You got to get the Festivus.
00:23:50.000 I have a, it's the airing of grievances in Festivus.
00:23:54.000 It's not December 23rd, which is that.
00:23:57.000 You're constitutionally allowed to complain to your leaders.
00:23:59.000 That's what Donald Trump was doing.
00:24:01.000 But Fannie Willis and the architects of this indictment are trying to make You're terrified.
00:24:07.000 And I'll be honest, it's working.
00:24:08.000 Not all of you.
00:24:09.000 Some of you are saying, oh, Charlie, I'm not scared and all that.
00:24:14.000 You're allowed to complain.
00:24:15.000 And now we're even questioning like, what are the rules?
00:24:17.000 Am I allowed to?
00:24:17.000 In the indictment, it says that Donald Trump watched One America's News Network.
00:24:24.000 You're not allowed to watch cable television that isn't state approved.
00:24:27.000 That's in the indictment that Donald Trump approved of watching OAN.
00:24:35.000 That's not state run television.
00:24:36.000 Can't do that.
00:24:38.000 Just so that we're clear and that we're not totally living in a different alternate universe, you're still allowed to watch cable television that the government doesn't like.
00:24:47.000 Not according to Fannie Willis.
00:24:50.000 And what bothers me the most about some, not Alan Dershowitz, who I think has been great, but some of these legal quacks on television, oh, yeah, he's so esteemed, is they're taking this thug seriously. 0.66
00:25:04.000 Oh, well, Fannie Willis has put together, don't reject the premise.
00:25:09.000 She's indicting watching cable television.
00:25:13.000 It's in the indictment.
00:25:15.000 But according to Axios, they said that these actions comprised elements of a conspiracy to subvert the election.
00:25:22.000 Subvert the election?
00:25:25.000 Okay, if Donald Trump was telling his supporters to go take baseball bats and smash voting machines, okay, I'd have a little bit of open mindedness towards that.
00:25:35.000 If Donald Trump was doing what Molly Ball said the Democrats were doing, having weekly Zoom calls that would say that we have shock troops.
00:25:45.000 Ready to deploy.
00:25:46.000 Can we get that article, please?
00:25:46.000 Don't believe me?
00:25:48.000 Ready to deploy.
00:25:50.000 Do you know that, did you know Florida Democrats were planning on submitting a slate of alternate electors in 2000 should their legal challenges have been successful?
00:25:58.000 This is what happened in Tilbin v. Hayes in 1871.
00:26:00.000 It happened in Hawaii in 1960.
00:26:02.000 Lawrence Tribe, who's now a leader of the resistance, has suggested the same strategy.
00:26:08.000 This was the established legal process for challenging election results before 2023 when Democrats decided to make it illegal retroactively.
00:26:17.000 You're allowed to air grievances against your leaders.
00:26:21.000 This is still legal.
00:26:22.000 Play Cut 71.
00:26:25.000 I got your message.
00:26:26.000 I haven't celebrated Festivus in years.
00:26:29.000 Just tell me everything.
00:26:29.000 What is your interest?
00:26:32.000 Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son.
00:26:36.000 I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man.
00:26:41.000 As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way.
00:26:45.000 What happened to the doll?
00:26:46.000 It was destroyed.
00:26:48.000 But out of that, A new holiday was born.
00:26:52.000 A festivus for the rest of us.
00:26:53.000 That must have been some kind of doll.
00:26:57.000 She was.
00:26:58.000 The tradition of festivus begins with the airing of grievances.
00:27:03.000 I got a lot of problems with you people.
00:27:06.000 Now you're going to hear about it.
00:27:09.000 That's me with Republican AGs.
00:27:10.000 I got a lot of problems with you people, and now you're going to hear about it.
00:27:14.000 Conspiracy.
00:27:16.000 The real question is Frank Costanza, an insurrectionist?
00:27:22.000 That's the real question.
00:27:26.000 You're allowed to complain.
00:27:27.000 According to Fannie Willis, you can't.
00:27:30.000 We are in dark waters, everybody.
00:27:33.000 We have laughter, is all I have, honestly, to make fun of it.
00:27:40.000 Look, it's easy to get demoralized with all this.
00:27:43.000 I totally get it.
00:27:45.000 If you are not involved in a church or if you're not actively spiritual, you have to do that.
00:27:50.000 Because if this is your whole life, you're going to be let down.
00:27:56.000 We're going to stay in the fight for the country, but you have to get your spiritual disciplines right.
00:28:02.000 You have to. 1.00
00:28:04.000 If you're Jewish, join a synagogue. 1.00
00:28:05.000 If you're Christian, join a church. 0.99
00:28:07.000 Whatever spiritual disciplines you align with, you better make that a priority, or else this is going to severely depress you and disappoint you.
00:28:16.000 That has to matter more than everything else.
00:28:19.000 Time magazine writes their work touched every aspect of the election, writing about Democrats.
00:28:24.000 They got states to change voting systems and laws and help secure hundreds of millions of dollars in public and private funding.
00:28:31.000 They fended off voter suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers, and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time.
00:28:37.000 They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line against disinformation and use data driven strategies to fight viral smears.
00:28:44.000 They executed national public awareness campaigns that helped Americans understand how to vote, how the vote count would unfold over days or weeks, preventing Trump's conspiracy theories and false claims of victory from getting more traction.
00:28:57.000 After Election Day, they monitored every pressure point to ensure that Trump could not overturn the result.
00:29:04.000 Quote The untold story of the election is that thousands of people of both parties who accomplished the triumph of American democracy at its very Foundation, Norm Eisen said.
00:29:13.000 That's a conspiracy.
00:29:16.000 Why are they doing this?
00:29:19.000 It's multifold.
00:29:20.000 We talked yesterday how you're living through a cultural revolution.
00:29:23.000 Mark Levin said that on Sean Hannity's program.
00:29:26.000 They want to turn this into a one party state, spot on.
00:29:26.000 He's exactly right.
00:29:30.000 They want to turn this into California, New York, where Republicans have no power.
00:29:34.000 That's their goal, and they're close to it.
00:29:37.000 They already control the intel agencies, they control the administrative state, and now they want to control all the political apparatus.
00:29:43.000 It's a top down revolution.
00:29:44.000 They're squeezing you.
00:29:45.000 They control the universities.
00:29:47.000 They control the corporations.
00:29:48.000 They control the tech companies.
00:29:49.000 They control the Wall Street banks.
00:29:51.000 They control every agency of government.
00:29:54.000 They control the media.
00:29:56.000 They control the sports leagues.
00:29:57.000 They control Hollywood.
00:30:00.000 The few things they do not control is they do not yet control politically half the country.
00:30:05.000 They don't control the House of Representatives, even though it feels that way sometimes.
00:30:09.000 They do not control every church, but they're doing a good job of it. 0.97
00:30:12.000 Francis Collins, who's a sick puppy.
00:30:15.000 Wrote a piece for Christianity Today to just show how far that place has fallen, published today.
00:30:22.000 And they don't yet control families and parents.
00:30:28.000 And they don't control every state.
00:30:30.000 In fact, no, there are more Republican AGs than Democrat AGs.
00:30:33.000 But they want to abolish that.
00:30:35.000 They want to obliterate it.
00:30:36.000 If not, they want Republicans to be controlled opposition. 0.69
00:30:39.000 They want them to be dogs on a leash.
00:30:42.000 They want them to be good boys.
00:30:43.000 Stay close.
00:30:44.000 Come to heel.
00:30:45.000 Sit when I tell you.
00:30:47.000 That's what they want.
00:30:48.000 They like Republicans like that.
00:30:50.000 They like Republicans that listen, that are submissive.
00:30:53.000 They want a submissive Republican Party.
00:30:54.000 If they can't get rid of half the country, they want a submissive and weak Republican Party that listens to their orders, that is terrified of their masters, the Democrats.
00:31:05.000 That's what they want.
00:31:06.000 What they don't want is they don't want the dog out of the cage.
00:31:09.000 They're very careful about that.
00:31:10.000 I want to play another piece of tape here that I think is instructive, what we're dealing with.
00:31:17.000 We played this yesterday, it's worth repeating.
00:31:18.000 We have Newt Gingrich coming on the program tomorrow.
00:31:21.000 When Newt Gingrich, a master historian, a very careful communicator, not an alarmist, not a guy that says things to get headlines, when he says something like this, it should create a pit in your stomach.
00:31:33.000 Play Cut 29.
00:31:34.000 And I think we are drifting towards the greatest constitutional crisis since the 1850s and the rise of secession and the Civil War.
00:31:47.000 I don't mean that as hyperbole.
00:31:50.000 Don't mean that as hyperbole.
00:31:53.000 Just remember.
00:31:55.000 There will only be one winner.
00:31:56.000 There is no settlement.
00:31:58.000 There is no middle ground.
00:31:59.000 And currently, there is only one side fighting.
00:32:01.000 There has not even been a reaction.
00:32:03.000 I still believe we are the majority of the country.
00:32:07.000 We are a majority of the policy.
00:32:09.000 We are.
00:32:09.000 We are a majority of the sentiment.
00:32:12.000 So we're being ruled by a minority, an unbelievably well financed, oligarch supported minority.
00:32:18.000 And they are willing and they are able.
00:32:20.000 Because they have the media and the tech companies and the billionaires, they feel as if they can act and do whatever they want.
00:32:27.000 The excuse I get from Republicans, and we just had an email here Charlie, if we go after Democrats, that would not be the gentleman thing to do.
00:32:36.000 Well, then you're going to lose everything, nobly, of course.
00:32:40.000 I think it's time to start to fight.
