00:00:00.000Hey, everybody, the school board issue is growing, and the National School Board Association of America issued a bizarre, unique, and unprecedented apology, and I put that in air quotes, against the moms and dads they call domestic terrorists.
00:00:12.000We talk about that as well as Barack Hussein Obama weighing in on the culture wars.
00:00:17.000Well, it's because Democrats are worried and they're trying to turn things away from the current trajectory, which means we have to keep the pressure on.
00:01:49.000And I want to thank Jenna from Carlsbad, California, and also Lynette from Texas.
00:01:54.000Thank you, thank you, thank you for supporting us.
00:01:56.000We play offense with a sense of urgency to win the American culture war.
00:02:00.000Two things with Turning Point USA: one, come to AmericaFest, everybody, December 18, December 19, December 2021 at tpusa.com/slash A-M-F-E-S-T.
00:02:11.000That's tpusa.com/slash amfest, tpusa.com/slash a mf.
00:02:31.000You guys also should start a high school or college chapter.
00:02:34.000If you're young, listen to this, or you're a parent that has kids out there, go to tpusa.com and start a high school or college chapter today.
00:02:41.000We have the support network to do that.
00:02:43.000Our educational movement is growing in numbers, thanks to all of you.
00:02:56.000We go through the tightening Virginia governor's race, a new poll that shows the Republican is leading the National School Board Association of America and why are so many people dying?
00:03:20.000His 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.
00:03:29.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:04:08.000Okay, so let's go into this story here.
00:04:11.000The Virginia governor's race is quickly tightening.
00:04:15.000The Virginia governor's race is statistically tied, and a new poll actually shows that Terry McAuliffe is losing and Youngkin, the Republican challenger, is winning.
00:04:28.000Now, these polls can be all over the place, but we've been keeping our eye on the Virginia governor's race.
00:04:32.000And we just did a massive event in Virginia where we had 3,000 people show up in Loudoun County, Virginia.
00:04:40.000New poll alert, according to the University of Mary Washington.
00:04:43.000Now, Connor, that's not some right-wing institution, right?
00:04:47.000That's not as if it was, let's say, Donald Trump organization doing the poll or whatever, right?
00:05:04.000What does the real clear politics average now show?
00:05:07.000That's always very interesting to look at.
00:05:09.000But the number one issue, the number one issue as to why all of a sudden the Virginia governor's race has been flipped upside down is schools.
00:05:24.000New polling shows that parents of K through 12 children, that means suburban women and fathers in Virginia, 56% of them want a Republican governor.
00:05:38.000I can't imagine that this is not a recipe for victory for the Republican.
00:05:47.000Virginia has become a place that Republicans used to dominate.
00:05:51.000And because of the growth of the Kingdom of Washington, D.C. in Northern Virginia, in Loudoun County and Fairfax County in particular, these races have just been so frustrating and seemingly untouchable.
00:06:05.000But because of the new rise of the mom and dad showing up to school board meetings, we are now seeing a backlash and response politically that is profound and that it's real.
00:06:20.000And so you look at the polling that is coming out.
00:06:22.000And again, polling, who knows how accurate some of this is, but you can get a gauge.
00:06:26.000You can get an idea of how realistic some of these things are.
00:06:32.000And it now shows that Democrat Terry McAuliffe is down in the polls.
00:06:36.000And here's how I know that the Democrats are worried.
00:06:40.000Here's how I know the Democrats are getting nervous.
00:06:44.000They are bringing in Barack Hussein Obama to try and bail out Terry McAuliffe by saying, we don't have time to be wasted on these phony trumped up culture wars, the fake outrage.
00:06:56.000Right-wing media pedals up to juice of the rating.
00:07:18.000And I am proud to say on this show at the Charlie Kirk Show and our work at Turning Point USA, we have been on the cutting edge of the education issue.
00:07:26.000We have always said this is the number one issue in the country.
00:07:29.000And finally, people are waking up and realizing it.
00:07:54.000You are changing the political dynamic for the better in this country, where what used to be a deep blue state of Virginia is now looking like it very well could have a Republican governor.
00:08:05.000And yes, there'll be shenanigans and tomfoolery and ballots being sent all over the place.
00:08:24.000It's looking like this is going to be tighter than ever.
00:08:26.000This should be a 10-point race, but because of schools, education, CRT, wokeism, not to mention the Loudoun County School District School Board moving the rapist, the man who thinks he was a woman who raped the ninth grader to another school who raped again.
00:08:43.000But Obama says that's a trumped-up culture war.
00:08:53.000We don't have time to be wasting on these phony, trumped-up culture wars, this fake outrage that right-wing media's peddles to juice their ratings.
00:09:07.000And the fact that he's willing to go along with it instead of talking about serious problems that actually affect serious people, that's a shame.
00:09:14.000Serious problems that really affect serious people.
00:09:17.000You mean like ninth-grade girls getting raped in Loudoun County schools are not serious issues, Barack Obama?
00:09:22.000Not all of us can live in Martha's Vineyard and send the two spoiled brats that you call daughters to whatever Ivy League institution you want.
00:09:32.000Yeah, you know, some people have to go to public school.
00:09:35.000Your wife, Michelle Obama, would know something about that.
00:09:37.000She went to Whitney Young in Chicago, was lucky enough to be a beneficiary of magnet schools and charter schools.
00:09:44.000And she didn't have to go to some of the more difficult schools in Chicago, like going to Simeon or going to any of the schools that have much lower likelihood of actually achieving success.
00:09:55.000But the Obama family actually was beneficiaries of school choice and of education mobility.
00:10:33.000They are bringing in the Obama cartel because they know that moms and dads are standing up in record numbers to take back their government.
00:10:46.000And this is all tied into a very bizarre, unprecedented news item that happened late on Thursday or Friday, where the National School Board Association of America came out and they apologized for their letter.
00:11:03.000The National School Board Association of America comes out and they apologized for issuing the letter that called moms and dads domestic terrorists.
00:11:14.000Now, are they sorry for what they said or are they sorry for the backlash they're receiving?
00:11:19.000Those are two totally different things.
00:11:21.000Do they regret what they said or do they regret?
00:11:24.000Do they regret the essence of what they said?
00:11:26.000Or do they regret that all of a sudden they realize that they have only strengthened the anti-fragile school board movement?
00:11:32.000And I think we pinpointed that on this show earlier than ever.
00:11:37.000As you all know, there's been extensive media and other attention recently around our letter to President Biden regarding threats and acts of violence against school board members.
00:11:44.000Their letter had almost zero notations of that.
00:11:50.000We wanted to write you directly to address this matter.
00:11:52.000On behalf of the National School Board Association, underlined, emphasized, we regret and apologize for the letter.
00:11:58.000To be clear, the safety of school board members and other public school officials and educators and students is our top priority, and they remain important work to be done on this issue.
00:12:05.000However, there is no justification for some of the language included in this letter.
00:12:09.000We should have had a better process in place to allow for consultation on a communication of this significance.
00:12:15.000We apologize also for the strain and stress the situation has caused you and your organization.
00:12:22.000Oh, by the way, we apologize that the Patriot Act is being used against like a 42-year-old mom in Loudoun County, Virginia that doesn't want her daughter to be raped.
00:12:30.000But we'll have a better process in the future.
00:12:33.000As we've reiterated since the letter was sent, we deeply, deeply value not only the work of local school boards that make important contributions within our communities, but also the voices of parents who should and must continue to be heard when it comes to discussions about their children's education, health, and safety.
00:12:48.000We're going to be better moving forward, they say.
00:14:16.000They're not apologizing because they regret what they said.
00:14:19.000They apologize with the political fallout that has resulted from it because they declared war on moms and dads across the country, asking the government to use the Patriot Act.
00:14:31.000And here's the most stunning thing: the government agreed.
00:14:34.000Merrick Garland in front of the U.S. Congress, I don't even think he read the National School Board Association memorandum.
00:15:04.000A formal review of our processes and procedures.
00:15:07.000Okay, so what was the review of how this came out?
00:15:09.000Was this some sort of 24-year-old brown-educated double mask-wearing non-binary intern that was like, I'm going to ask the government to use the Patriot Act?
00:15:22.000We will announce specific improvements soon to ensure that there is improved coordination and consultation amongst our staff, our board, and our members across the country.
00:15:31.000The review will include not only the procedures or the proceedings leading to this letter, but also other related concerns raised by members even before the letter was sent.
00:15:40.000We'll have more to share with you soon after our review continues.
00:15:44.000If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
00:15:51.000The National School Board Association got revealed as an organization that views moms and dads like Timothy McVeigh, Eric Rudolph, and the Unabomber.
00:16:01.000They view moms and dads showing up and complaining, exercising their First Amendment, the First Amendment rights.
00:16:07.000It's like, okay, now let's go use the FBI against them.
00:16:10.000Is the Department of Justice going to adjust their letter?
00:16:42.000And so, but finally, there's this issue where, oh, this affects everybody, especially the current demographic that we are told that you're struggling with, suburban voters.
00:16:54.000Now, this Virginia governor's race, if they hit their benchmarks with suburban voters that it looks like they're going to do in suburban Virginia, and they can run up the score in rural Virginia, Youngkin's going to win.
00:17:06.000Now, again, they're going to have shenanigans and tomfoolery and all this.
00:17:09.000We'll see kind of how that all plays out.
00:17:13.000New emails have come out, though, around the Loudoun County, Virginia incident.
00:17:21.000All the board members were informed that there was a male student posing as a female student who raped her, and then they did nothing about it.
00:17:32.000In fact, they reallocated the male student.
00:17:36.000This is a new email that has been obtained.
00:17:39.000The purpose of this email is to provide you with information regarding an incident that occurred at Stonebridge High School.
00:17:44.000This afternoon, a female student alleged that a male student sexually assaulted her in the restroom.
00:17:48.000The LCDSD is investigating the matter.
00:17:51.000Secondary to the assault investigation, the female student's parents responded to the school and caused a disruption by using threatening and profane language that was overheard by staff and students.
00:18:00.000Excuse me, if your daughter gets raped, I think some profane language is in store.
00:18:04.000Yeah, I think a little bit of commotion is warranted.
00:18:07.000Additional law enforcement units responded to the school to assist with the parent.
00:18:12.000Not the rapist against the ninth grader, but the school board is like, okay, we need to deploy the shock troops against the father whose daughter was raped.
00:18:20.000The school's counseling team is providing services from students who witnessed the parents' behavior.
00:18:24.000The alleged victim is being tended to by LCSO.
00:18:28.000The LCSO is investigating both incidents.
00:18:32.000Here is Scott Ziegler, the head of the Loudoun County Public Schools, conflating a father who's upset that his daughter gets raped and the rape incident.
00:18:39.000The Loudoun County Public Schools and Scott Ziegler, who should be in prison for criminal negligence and conspiracy against the children that he's sworn to protect.
00:19:20.000You have the power to challenge these maniacs.
00:19:26.000Internet privacy is extremely important.
00:19:28.000New news out shows that Google has been colluding with the federal government to hand over your data if you might have searched something wrong into the search bar.
00:19:39.000So what are you doing to protect your search history?
00:19:42.000Well, this is why you need Express VPN.
00:19:45.000Using the internet without Express VPN is like going to the bathroom and not closing the door.
00:20:43.000Express VPN for me has been a game changer to be able to know that the tech companies or the government, they have to go through a whole nother barrier to try to spy on us.
00:20:54.000When we see with the new announcements out of DC, if you've spoke at a school board meeting lately, you better get a VPN.
00:21:00.000Secure your online activity by visiting expressvpn.com/slash Charlie today.
00:21:19.000Merrick Garland admitted that the faux letter, the fake letter, the concocted artificial complaint from the National School Board Association was the reason why he said that we're going to start using the FBI to go after moms and dads.
00:21:33.000Jim Jordan, one of the few good guys in Congress, great friend, phenomenal person.
00:21:52.000Is there some study, some effort, some investigation someone did that said there's been a disturbing uptake, or you just take the words of the National School Board Association?
00:21:59.000When the National School Board Association, which represents thousands of school boards and school board members, says that there are these kinds of threats.
00:22:07.000And now the National School Board Association is not just a little bit apologizing.
00:22:11.000You read this letter from the National School Board Association.
00:22:14.000This is a full-on French-style retreat.
00:22:16.000I mean, they are going back to their villages.
00:22:39.000I know some of these people just showing up and complaining that are wondering and worrying about the direction of our schools.
00:22:45.000And now you're going to go use the Patriot Act against them?
00:22:48.000Like, we're not going to put up with that.
00:22:52.000So we know the direction of where this is going.
00:22:56.000And the next move, of course, is a full-on propaganda campaign from the media to try and blur the lines.
00:23:03.000They did this through a new podcast they have called South Lake NPR National Public Radio came out and they said that they had this whole article over the weekend where they came out and they said, this is what it's like to be on the front lines of the American culture war with this mother.
00:23:21.000And she had a picture of their daughter with her back turned to the camera as if she couldn't even look into the eyes of the camera because it's so difficult to be a school board member.
00:23:41.000Cut 22, there's nothing in this memorandum which has any effect on the kinds of curriculum that are taught or the ability of parents to complain.
00:23:50.000Mike Johnson going back and forth with Merrick Garland, play cut 22.
00:23:54.000And I want to be clear once again that there's nothing in this memorandum which has any effect on the kinds of curriculums that are taught or the ability of parents to complain about the kinds of understand your position on this free speech appearance.
00:24:12.000So they the ruling class, the educational cartel, they're not really even sure how to deal with this.
00:24:19.000And the Loudoun County schools, now being the battleground swing state of the entire state of Virginia, they transferred a boy to different high schools where three months later he rapes another child.
00:24:31.000He dressed as a girl, assaulted and then sodomized a child in the bathroom.
00:24:36.000The school board and the superintendent covers it up and told the parents when they were voting on the new trans policy that everything's fine.
00:24:43.000And then they say the biggest threat is actually the father who's showing up and complaining.
00:24:47.000This issue is changing political dynamics in our country for the better.
00:24:52.000We're finally taking back local government.
00:24:54.000We're finally looking less at Congress and more at the local schools.
00:24:57.000And Democrats are very worried about that.
00:24:59.000Democrats have never wanted states or localities, municipalities or cities to take their rightful place in the partnership of a federal contract that actually is the state's greater the federal government.
00:25:10.000The federal government did not create the states.
00:25:13.000So many people, including a lot of people listening to my voice right now in North Dakota, maybe in Idaho, maybe in South Dakota, Wyoming, we have been lied to by the propagandists, by the people in charge, to believe that the states have very little to no power.
00:25:31.000The states actually have the authority and the sovereignty not delegated to the United States Constitution.
00:26:11.000It was inspired by some very favorable reaction with the speech I gave over the summer about how we win.
00:26:16.000And part of it is influencing buildings that you drive by every single day.
00:26:21.000Meaning, if you drive by city council, you drive by a school board meeting, go worry about that building a lot more than the one that you see on TV, the distant one, the Congress.
00:26:29.000Instead, focus on the places that are having meaningful impact on the things that you actually interact with every single day.
00:26:38.000And elections locally have consequences.
00:26:41.000And I want to see more Republican governors start to step up the way that Ron DeSantis has in Florida.
00:26:47.000Ron DeSantis has been hitting home run after home run.
00:26:51.000Why every Republican governor in the country is not like Ron DeSantis is beyond me.
00:26:55.000There's a few very good Republican governors.
00:26:57.000Governor Gianforte in Montana is doing a great job.
00:27:01.000Ron DeSantis is right up there, though.
00:27:03.000Being in the battleground state of Florida, he is saying that we are not going to stand for vaccine mandates.
00:27:09.000We'll stand for the liberty of our citizens.
00:27:11.000And Ron DeSantis has now announced he is seeking to create legislation that will reward a $5,000 bonus to unvaccinated police officers who relocate to Florida.
00:27:22.000He's literally trying to hire police officers from Washington and Oregon.
00:27:32.000So in the next legislative session, I'm going to hopefully sign legislation that gives a $5,000 bonus to any out-of-state law enforcement that relocates in Florida.
00:27:41.000So NYPD, Minneapolis, Seattle, if you're not being treated well, we'll treat you better here.
00:27:46.000You can fill important needs for us, and we'll compensate you as a result.
00:27:50.000So, if you are a police officer in the city of Seattle or in the city of Portland, and you're saying, Man, my life has been ruined because I don't want to get vaccinated, Florida will pay you to move to Florida.
00:28:06.000That's a state-based model to solution.
00:28:08.000The similar as the way the Nebraska Attorney General says we are going to allow Iver Mectin to be prescribed, same as Jeff Landry in Louisiana, same sort of thing.
00:28:18.000Now, I want to get to this story, and do we have the full Alex Berenson?
00:28:21.000Can we have the full Alex Berenson clip?
00:28:22.000I know it's like two minutes long, but it's worth it.
00:29:42.000But in the last few months, even as COVID deaths fell in the spring, deaths in that age group remain very high in the U.S.
00:29:49.000This is, and again, there's a couple possibilities.
00:29:52.000One possibility is that some COVID deaths are being miscounted, although we count COVID deaths very aggressively.
00:29:57.000Another possibility is that it's these lockdown/slash drug overdose deaths, although Europe doesn't have nearly the problem that we do with that.
00:30:06.000Another possibility, and I hesitate even to say this out loud, Tucker, because I know what the response will be, is that this is cardiac-related and it is something to do with the mass vaccination campaigns.
00:30:17.000Alex Berenson worked for the New York Times.
00:30:20.000He was a reporter and is not some sort of right-wing journalist.
00:30:28.000He's wrote phenomenal stories, one after the other.
00:30:32.000And now, of course, he's being attacked from every single direction.
00:30:35.000Alex Berenson has an amazing unrelated book, by the way, called Tell Your Children, The Truth About Marijuana, Mental Illness, and Violence.
00:30:44.000For those of you that are really pro-weed and pro-marijuana, you need to read Alex Berenson's book.
00:30:48.000It will make you reconsider the legalization of marijuana.
00:32:48.000Send letters and packages for less with discounted rates from USPS, UPS, and more.
00:32:53.000Since 1998, stamps.com has been an indispensable tool for nearly 1 million businesses.
00:32:58.000Stamps.com brings the services of the U.S. Postal Service and UPS shipping right to your computer.
00:33:04.000Whether you're in office sending invoices, a side hustle Etsy shop, or a full-blown warehouse shipping out orders, stamps.com will make your life easier.
00:33:13.000All you need is a computer or standard printer.
00:33:46.000But first, I want to get, I'm not, I'm not, we don't spend a lot of time on this show on tax policy.
00:33:52.000As you know, I'm kind of bored with that whole thing: 28% corporate tax versus 25% tax policies.
00:33:57.000Obviously, taxes are too high, and we prefer free market solutions.
00:34:00.000But I don't like the overemphasis on that.
00:34:02.000With that being said, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has just proposed something that is so beyond anything that we have seen in the tax realm.
00:34:15.000It is something that deserves outrage, and we need to contact our officials.
00:34:50.000Senator Wyden and the Senate Finance Committee have been looking at that would impose a tax on unrealized capital gains on liquid assets held by extremely wealthy individuals, billionaires.
00:35:25.000So if you make any money in the stock market and you don't sell that stock, she's now saying, no, you should still have to, unrealized, meaning you have not yet sold it.
00:36:07.000They want to confiscate the wealth that you have, not just the, and I'm not even a huge fan of capital gains tax as it is.
00:36:16.000That's a different conversation for a different time.
00:36:17.000I think it should be adjusted based on income, but because if you're earning $50,000 a year and you hit it big on the stock market, I don't think that you should pay a 35%, what is capital gains, 25% now?
00:37:10.000I cannot believe American tax dollars would go to treat those dogs the way those dogs would be treated.
00:37:16.000And, you know, I really think Fauci needs to be held accountable.
00:37:20.000These people, these bureaucrats, they don't get to just run wild and do whatever the hell they want to with our tax dollars.
00:37:26.000And so from funding gain of function research to treating these puppies with really unimaginable cruelty, I think that whole lot of them need to be cleaned out.
00:37:54.000Fauci believes, at the head of the NIH CDC, being the mad scientist that he is, he believes that he can orchestrate and manipulate the levers of the federal government to his liking and his choosing.
00:38:15.000Fauci needs to be subpoenaed in front of Congress immediately, and we need to find out how many dogs were tortured, how many beagles were tortured.
00:38:23.000And does he get some sort of sadistic pleasure off of this?
