00:01:12.000 Sarah Palin is here live from the Young Women's Leadership Summit brought to you by Turning Point USA.

00:01:17.000 Buckle up, everybody.

00:01:18.000 Here we go.

00:01:19.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:01:21.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:01:23.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:01:26.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:30.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:31.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:32.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:40.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:49.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:51.000 Do you ever read the fine print that appears when you start browsing in incognito mode?

00:01:55.000 It says that your activity might still be visible to your employer, your school, or your internet service provider.

00:02:00.000 How can they even call it incognito?

00:02:02.000 To really stop these people from visiting, from seeing the sites you visit, you need to do what I do and use Express VPN.

00:02:08.000 Think about all the times you've used the Wi-Fi at a coffee shop, a hotel, or even at your parents' home.

00:02:13.000 Without ExpressVPN, every single site you visit could be logged by the admin of that network.

00:02:19.000 And that's still true when you're in incognito mode.

00:02:21.000 What's more is your home internet provider, I'm talking about Comcast, AT ⁇ T, or whatever, can also see and record your browsing data.

00:02:28.000 ExpressVPN is an application.

00:02:30.000 It's an app that encrypts all of your network data and reroutes it through a network of secure servers, so your private online activity says just that, private.

00:02:39.000 Expressvpn works on all of your devices and it's super easy to use, so stop letting strangers invade your online privacy.

00:03:00.000 So governor, we're thrilled to have you here at the largest ever young conservative women's summit in the country.

00:03:06.000 Thank you, guys.

00:03:09.000 There's a lot we want to cover, but Start with your story.

00:03:13.000 I mean, you've been in leadership of an entire state and you have battled the mainstream media and won.

00:03:20.000 You've seen and done a lot.

00:03:21.000 What wisdom do you have to share for all these young conservative women leaders? 1.00

00:03:25.000 Well, you are going to have to battle mainstream media when you continue to be involved even more so. 1.00

00:03:32.000 And man, gals, we need you even more so today more than ever.

00:03:36.000 We need your voice out there.

00:03:38.000 So, as you speak, and just like doing anything worthwhile, it's not going to be easy, but as you speak and the media tries to clobber you and tell you to sit down and shut up, you have to remember A, where the criticism's coming from.

00:03:52.000 You know, consider the source.

00:03:54.000 And we don't have to validate what the lamestream media says about us that is so negative because it's so untrue.

00:04:01.000 And you have to remember too, when it comes to that criticism, if you don't live by man's praise, you're not going to die by man's criticism.

00:04:12.000 So we keep it in perspective.

00:04:17.000 So, Governor, what would your advice be to some of these young ladies that start a Turning Point USA group? 1.00

00:04:22.000 They want to get involved on campus, and they are called all these awful things because they are a conservative. 1.00

00:04:27.000 What are they supposed to do?

00:04:29.000 Grow thick skin.

00:04:31.000 And I always say, Yeah, no, this isn't fat.

00:04:34.000 This is thicker and thicker skin all the time.

00:04:37.000 And you do.

00:04:38.000 You keep things in perspective.

00:04:40.000 And when you know that you know that you know that you're standing for something right, you don't have to worry about those name-calling and all that very useless, very, very critical rhetoric that is aimed at you.

00:04:57.000 You really do have to get used to it because, you know, but that's why this is beautiful, where you all, with a sense of camaraderie, you all can be empowered amongst each other and within because you can look around and think and say, and know, I'm not alone.

00:05:15.000 Others around here with their straight spine standing up for what's right.

00:05:19.000 We're in this together.

00:05:21.000 So there is no need to be apprehensive or afraid or depressed about what's going on out there in the media.

00:05:30.000 We all have each other.

00:05:32.000 And I still say, Charlie, there are more of us than there are of them.

00:05:37.000 And as you can see, there's this movement is growing and growing and growing.

00:05:42.000 And so talk about courage because a lot of people say, How do I find that courage?

00:05:46.000 I know what should be done, but I need to get that next step.

00:05:50.000 How I mean, your whole life is one of courage from being governor of Alaska to the entire activist press trying to destroy you and you coming out stronger on the other side of it.

00:06:02.000 Talk about courage.

00:06:03.000 How does somebody find courage to stand for what they believe in?

00:06:06.000 Well, it's amazing to me when I look back because I am so old now.

00:06:11.000 I have a lot to look back on.

00:06:13.000 When I look back at the steps in my life that just I think inherently required courage, I think, wow, God had a hand in absolutely every step I took.

00:06:25.000 And when I was a kid, I was smart enough at a summer camp, at evangelical assemblies of God youth camp, looking around at the beauty of Alaska.

00:06:38.000 And I'm like, wow, this is majestic.

00:06:41.000 God, thank you for this creation.

00:06:43.000 And if God is so smart to have created all this, surely if I put my life in his hands, surely he can create something, if not great, at least hopefully usable.

00:06:56.000 So putting my life in God's hands, I look back now and I say, that's why that happened.

00:07:01.000 That's why I ended up there. 0.99

00:07:03.000 That's why I said, screw you, establishment. 0.96

00:07:06.000 I'm going to run anyway for X, Y, or Z position. 0.96

00:07:11.000 And I can see how courage has been built.

00:07:14.000 So, finding that voice and trusting God with your life and your path was instrumental for you.

00:07:20.000 Talk about building a family because there's so many of these women's summits, and we talked about this earlier, that are more kind of on the liberal side.

00:07:27.000 And they tell young women you have to go become an activist, you have to become an environmental activist, you have to come become a fossil fuel, anti-fossil fuel activist, you have to become a Me Too activist, and that all men are terrible, and the patriarchy's there to smash you.

00:07:41.000 And you should then, the only thing you might want to do is go work for a massive corporation.

00:07:45.000 You have an amazing family.

00:07:47.000 Talk about that.

00:07:48.000 Well, nothing is more important, and nothing is more valuable to me, or I believe to the majority, is family.

00:07:48.000 Oh, my goodness.

00:07:58.000 You know, faith, family, freedom.

00:08:00.000 The foundation of a good culture, good society is family.

00:08:04.000 It's just bedrock.

00:08:05.000 So, yeah, I'm so thankful for my family, and I would and could do nothing without them.

00:08:11.000 But isn't it funny that the liberals would try to make young women feel that they're not capable of doing anything perhaps but being in a large corporation or being an activist for X, Y, or Z, and not be able to also have a family and even carry a baby to term.

00:08:34.000 All these things that the left wants to make young women believe is that, oh, you know, you have to pick one or the other.

00:08:41.000 And certainly, the lesser of choices out there would be just being a mom, being a wife.

00:08:48.000 I want young women to believe, to know that you are capable of really doing it all, pursuing your education, having a career, dedicating your life, all your priorities first and foremost into your family, and not listening to the left that it's a fake feminism.

00:09:10.000 You know, they're trying to make women feel lesser than.

00:09:15.000 Whereas why can't they see?

00:09:17.000 We're doing the complete opposite.

00:09:19.000 We're seeing, you girls, you're more than, and you can do all.

00:09:24.000 It sounds cliche, but you can do all that you put your mind to.

00:09:27.000 You don't have to listen to those who are going to try to make you feel smaller, victimized.

00:09:35.000 Those who have to look to big brother government to take care of you. 1.00

00:09:40.000 They're preaching the antithesis of what a feminist should be. 1.00

00:09:45.000 And they're not even able to say what women are.

00:09:49.000 So, therefore, I want to say this is the largest ever convention of birthing people in the history of can you talk about that, Governor?

00:10:01.000 What is a woman and what is a man?

00:10:04.000 Oh, wow.

00:10:07.000 And I'm just such a simple girl.

00:10:09.000 And here, if I get it, then yeah, you know, DNA doesn't lie.

00:10:14.000 So, yeah.

00:10:18.000 And, you know, growing up, my dad's a teacher, a coach, growing up enmeshed in sports when it comes to transgender or when it comes to boys wanting to compete against girls, which is what their DNA proves, the whole transgender competition issue that's going on right now. 0.60

00:10:40.000 I hope that you who are young and perhaps still involved in sports, extracurricular or collegiate, even, I hope that you are the ones who stand up and say how unfair it is and putting pressure on the boys who want to compete against the girls. 0.75

00:10:59.000 Back in my day, boys didn't want to compete against girls.

00:11:03.000 We'd be looking at them, you sissy? 0.90

00:11:05.000 No. 1.00

00:11:07.000 Try to compete against your own gender. 1.00

00:11:10.000 Well, and these are narcissistic sociopaths, deeply mentally disturbed men that want to compete against women. 1.00

00:11:16.000 Truly. 0.99

00:11:16.000 No, if you're a man that wants to compete against a woman, there's something very wrong with you. 0.99

00:11:21.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:11:23.000 It's unnatural.

00:11:25.000 No, you're right.

00:11:25.000 It's unnatural.

00:11:26.000 And I think that these universities have a tendency to overthink these things.

00:11:30.000 We talked about this earlier.

00:11:31.000 You really don't have to go that deep.

00:11:33.000 I'm happy to.

00:11:34.000 I've done these debates against these people to go into the 900-page treatise of chromosomal structure and biology.

00:11:40.000 It's really simple.

00:11:41.000 It's men and women, chromosomal differences.

00:11:44.000 You can see the differences, and they need each other.

00:11:47.000 Yes.

00:11:47.000 Yeah.

00:11:48.000 I mean, that's the way God made it.

00:11:51.000 What do we do in trying to, you know, challenge that and change that?

00:11:55.000 You know, I think it's the system that he set up, and it worked for a long time.

00:12:02.000 And it seems that the other side is trying to wage a war on that.

00:12:07.000 Are you saving for retirement or just treading water?

00:12:10.000 Are you depending solely on stocks or mutuals instead of diversifying what you really need?

00:12:14.000 Did you know it's easy to move out of a 401k into precious metals like gold that's predicted to go up $2,500 an ounce soon?

00:12:20.000 Inflation is here, and this could be an answer for you.

00:12:23.000 So call the team at Noble Gold.

00:12:24.000 Do it this month, and they'll give you a gift of a 22-carat American Eagle coin.

00:12:28.000 Just mention the promo code Kirk.

00:12:29.000 That's noblegoldinvestments.com.

00:12:31.000 That's noblegoldinvestments.com.

00:12:35.000 So let's talk about current events because we want to get as timely as possible.

00:12:39.000 You said nothing's off limits, and so there's no right or wrong answer to this question.

00:12:44.000 And someone's going to cheer and then someone's going to feel isolated.

00:12:48.000 We're just going to say what our own opinion is on this, and we're going to try to be as delicate as possible.

00:12:53.000 It needs to be talked about.

00:12:54.000 Governor, are you getting the vaccine?

00:12:57.000 No, thank you. 1.00

00:13:18.000 This is a group of strong, independent, hard-working, smart, smart women. 1.00

00:13:24.000 Thank you. 0.99

00:13:26.000 Wow.

00:13:27.000 Wow.

00:13:28.000 So again, I know a lot of my family members have gotten it.

00:13:32.000 I know people that have gotten it.

00:13:33.000 You just make your own decision, find your information.

00:13:36.000 I'm not getting the vaccine.

00:13:37.000 I've made that very public.

00:13:39.000 And so, Governor, talk about why you made that decision and then walk us through, in addition to that, what is a young woman supposed to do here if they're threatened to lose their job, not go to school if they don't get the vaccine?

00:13:54.000 Help us through that. 0.96

00:13:55.000 Yeah, well, first I decided, no, I'll be generous and I'll donate my vaccine to some politician who's experimenting with it.

00:14:05.000 And if that horrible politician dies, well, then we're all better off anyway. 0.93

00:14:12.000 So, well, I said a horrible, horrible politician. 0.99

00:14:18.000 But no, okay, here.

00:14:21.000 This is what you all need to keep in mind.

00:14:25.000 If it comes to a point of government telling us, not even private sector, not even owners of a business, but government telling you that you will not be able to fly somewhere.

00:14:37.000 You will not be able, say, to go on a college campus and speak unless you're vaccinated.

00:14:42.000 Charlie and I had talked about this, and he's brilliant on this. 0.64

00:14:45.000 We have to preempt that.

00:14:47.000 And that's another reason that this gathering is so doggone important.

00:14:51.000 And thank you for putting it together.

00:14:53.000 Thank you for all that you do, Charlie.

00:14:55.000 It's amazing.

00:14:57.000 Herding cats.

00:14:58.000 But That's what we need to talk about: how we're going to preempt any of those kind of unconstitutional mandates, those mandates that would take away our power, infringe on our very, very basic rights.

00:15:14.000 We can't get to that point, girls.

00:15:16.000 We can't get to that point.

00:15:18.000 If we get to that point, I think tangibly where we're going to be able to see the greatest erosion of our charters of liberty, of our foundation of freedom.

00:15:31.000 I think so much of it has to do with the mandate that perhaps they're going to try to throw on our heads.

00:15:40.000 So much of it has to do with the vaccine.

00:15:43.000 And I grew up with four words, Governor, that the left always would scream at me when I'd go to these campuses, my body, my choice.

00:15:51.000 And now they're saying, get the vaccine racist.

00:15:54.000 And I'm like, what?

00:15:56.000 And so, and again, everyone comes to their own decision.

00:16:00.000 Here's the way my calculus.

00:16:01.000 First of all, I'm young.

00:16:03.000 I also, I'll take my chances with hydroxychloroquine, vitamin D, a little bit of walking outside, good diet.

00:16:10.000 And secondly, just a reasonable thing.

00:16:13.000 These people have lied about everything over the last year.

00:16:16.000 Everything.

00:16:17.000 From the lockdowns to the actual infectious rate to the death rate.

00:16:21.000 Dr. Fauci was lying about it early and often.

00:16:24.000 And now we're just supposed to say, you know what?

00:16:26.000 Now we should just trust the pharmaceutical companies.

00:16:28.000 And they never lie, by the way.

00:16:29.000 They are perfectly ethical.

00:16:31.000 They are the most honest people we've ever dealt with.

00:16:34.000 They never seek profit to try to exploit you or try to medicate you unnecessarily.

00:16:38.000 I love Johnson and Johnson, Pfizer, and Moderna, and you should too.

00:16:42.000 No matter what.

00:16:44.000 And of course we should worship them.

00:16:46.000 And, Governor, don't you remember the left?

00:16:48.000 They used to challenge these companies.

00:16:50.000 Yeah, remember that?

00:16:51.000 That, you know, they were the ones up against the man.

00:16:54.000 You know, they were raging against the machine.

00:16:56.000 And now they're all sucked in and they are the machine.

00:16:59.000 So it's our turn to rage against the machine that needs to be shut down because the machine is going to try to take away your freedom.

00:17:07.000 Now, another reason I'm not getting that shot is I have that natural immunity.

00:17:12.000 Thank you, Jesus.

00:17:13.000 I had COVID.

00:17:15.000 So this is proof of another lie that you have been fed.

00:17:20.000 Remember early on we were told, well, maybe it's not so bad if a lot of people get COVID because herd immunity, right?

00:17:27.000 Okay, so let's go.

00:17:28.000 Because once you get it, man, you're naturally immune.

00:17:31.000 And then they change their tune once those of us who said, I'm naturally immune, you said so.

00:17:37.000 And if you even talk about this on social media or radio, which I talk about it quite often, they come after you completely.

00:17:43.000 For example, you're not allowed to say that 53% of Center for Disease Control employees have got the vaccine, and about 47%, according to Dr. Fauci's own testimony, have not.

00:17:55.000 And we don't know if they've denied it, but that's a low vaccination rate for the Center for Disease Control.

00:18:01.000 Do they know something that we don't?

00:18:03.000 Does the NIH know something that we don't?

00:18:06.000 Eric Clapton got the vaccine and he was afraid he was never able to play the guitar again because he had such an adverse effect.

00:18:11.000 According to Vayer's own website, again, the media hates when I mention this, so I have to be so specific when I say this.

00:18:18.000 According to their website, 4,000 people have died since getting the vaccine.

00:18:22.000 That's what it says on their website.

00:18:24.000 That's interesting.

00:18:25.000 Nine Yankees players have gotten the vaccine, Godzilla virus, after they got the vaccine.

00:18:29.000 And the first man who got the vaccine in Britain, 81 years old, his name is literally William Shakespeare.

00:18:35.000 They were like, oh, we're going to, they had this whole press event.

00:18:37.000 We're going to give him the vaccine.

00:18:38.000 He unfortunately passed away a couple weeks ago.

00:18:41.000 So that's interesting.

00:18:42.000 And we should have some form of discussion about it.

00:18:44.000 But, governor, they're trying to, are they trying to intimidate us into this?

00:18:47.000 Well, of course they're trying, Fauci, stand against Fauciism.

00:18:53.000 Yeah.

00:18:53.000 Come on, Gabona.

00:18:54.000 What are you talking about?

00:18:56.000 It's Fauciism.

00:18:59.000 Yeah, I think, you know, it's kind of prophetic, even the whole symbolism of shut your mouth.

00:19:06.000 You're going to be masked.

00:19:08.000 You're not going to be seen.

00:19:09.000 You're not going to be heard.

00:19:11.000 That's why I say, oh, I want to just rip off that mask.

00:19:19.000 And we have to be smart enough to pick our battles too.

00:19:23.000 I knew through all of it.

00:19:24.000 I wasn't going to be a stinker.

00:19:26.000 I wasn't going to get on a flight and rip the mask off and say, oh, I'm standing up for.

00:19:30.000 No, you pick your battles in order to be effective.

00:19:34.000 So, you know, wearing the mask when I had to, looking at, you know, a private sector, a store owner telling me, okay, then it's your business.

00:19:43.000 So you don't have to serve me.

00:19:45.000 That's right.

00:19:46.000 You know, if we're going to be preaching free enterprise as capitalists, then, you know, more power to a shop owner for saying, I don't want you in here unless you're wearing a mask.

00:19:57.000 Okay, I understand that.

00:19:59.000 But when it comes to government trying to tell us what to do, you know what the federal government was set up to do?

00:20:05.000 It was to protect our rights, not to chip away at anything.

00:20:12.000 And all of these issues, all these issues, even the issue of abortion, and I'm 100% pro-life, even these issues of abortion, that the federal government, these faceless bureaucrats and politicians in far-off, bubbly Washington, D.C., they trying to dictate the way that we raise our families, the way that we run our businesses.

00:20:38.000 This is coming from the federal government.

00:20:39.000 We've let it get out of hand.

00:20:42.000 Those type of issues, even an issue I say of abortion, it needs to be ratcheted down, state level, more local level, levels of government that are actually accountable.

00:20:54.000 Because thus far, the federal government is so out of control.

00:20:57.000 Obviously, there isn't accountability.

00:21:00.000 And so, Governor, what is a young woman supposed to do if they're saying you got to get vaccinated by August 10th or else you can't go back to college?

00:21:07.000 You got to get vaccinated or else you can't have a job.

00:21:09.000 That's the number one question that we get right now.

00:21:11.000 My advice, and I don't want to say advice.

00:21:14.000 I'll just say my own piece is that for me, I wouldn't do it.

00:21:17.000 I'd find a new school.

00:21:18.000 I'd work remotely, whatever it is.

00:21:20.000 That's my own personal prerogative.

00:21:22.000 But what are they supposed to do, Governor?

00:21:23.000 Wow.

00:21:24.000 And that is a great question.

00:21:25.000 And that's why a gathering like this is so important so that we can be empowered and know that there are a lot of us.

00:21:32.000 We do have to unify over this issue.

00:21:35.000 And we have to protest it so it doesn't get to that point.

00:21:39.000 The decision makers, the quote-unquote leaders who are probably going to tell us that, they need to be told, we're not going to take it this time.

00:21:49.000 Enough is enough.

00:21:51.000 And we're not going to just sit back.

00:21:53.000 You know, we did sit back when all this was rolled out, right?

00:21:57.000 I was kind of shocked that, oh, wow, we're a bunch of sheeple, just, you know, a couple government bureaucrats telling us that we're going to not be able to go to church or, you know, because the rules were so inconsistent.

00:22:10.000 I could have gone there with some of it had they been consistent and scientifically based.

00:22:15.000 But because they've been so inconsistent, you know, from the rollout on, there hasn't been confidence in our government leaders with this issue.

00:22:27.000 They're not any smarter than anybody else, obviously, based on the decisions that they have made that have adversely affected us, decisions that haven't been based on science.

00:22:38.000 They need to be reminded of that.

00:22:40.000 They're reminded of that by us standing up, protesting what it is that they want to do, unifying around the issue, and like I say, saying literally, enough is enough.

00:22:52.000 We're not going to go there with this one.

00:22:55.000 And I totally agree.

00:22:57.000 If those of you that are struggling with it, you have to find some point of leverage.

00:23:01.000 And you might not have a lot of leverage, by the way.

00:23:02.000 You might just be an entry-level worker and you're like, I'm totally at their mercy.

00:23:06.000 Then you don't have leverage.

00:23:07.000 But you at a university have more leverage than you might think.

00:23:10.000 You go to a state school, find a state legislator if you live in a Republican state.

00:23:13.000 If you go to a private school, go find the big donors and contact them.

00:23:17.000 For example, anyone Catholic in here?

00:23:19.000 God bless you guys.

00:23:21.000 Every Catholic in the country should contact University of Notre Dame and say, why are you requiring mandatory vaccines for every student to go back to University of Notre Dame?

00:23:28.000 Why is that happening?

00:23:29.000 So let me read, if you are a Catholic, you should contact the University of Notre Dame and say, how dare you do this? 0.96

00:23:36.000 I will never give you another dime. 0.96

00:23:37.000 I will never speak favorably about you.

00:23:39.000 And I think that you are in violation of exactly what the Catholic Church stands for.

00:23:43.000 That is what needs to happen.

00:23:45.000 And you might not have any leverage, but I tell you right now, most of you in these situations have a lot more leverage than you might think.

00:23:51.000 For every one of you that's anxious about mandatory vaccinations, there are hundreds, if not thousands of other students that share that alongside of you.

00:23:59.000 And speaking out can make that difference.

00:24:00.000 That's right.

00:24:01.000 And I know that it isn't an easy issue.

00:24:04.000 And Charlie and I both know, yeah, it's not easy if you feel alone standing up against, you know, the bureaucracy, standing up against the man and saying, no, that you're not going to take it.

00:24:16.000 I know personally it's tough.

00:24:18.000 My youngest, Trig, in fact, she had a sign for Trigger and it just about made me cry.

00:24:24.000 My son, Trig, who has special needs, he was born with an extra chromosome.

00:24:28.000 He has Down syndrome.

00:24:29.000 My kid has more chromosomes than any of you.

00:24:33.000 So we won.

00:24:35.000 So, Trig, though, going to a wonderful public school that thankfully our district does put resources into some therapy, some things that a child with special needs needs.

00:24:48.000 I don't want to have to take him out of that school, but you're right. 0.90

00:24:51.000 We do all have to have that line, you know, that I would have, I would take him out of school.

00:24:58.000 If a continuation adversely affects him, his learning, if it impacts, you know, that chipping away of our freedoms, I would have to, you know, make that sacrifice and we would have to find somewhere else to go.

00:25:15.000 You may have heard that I'm recently married.

00:25:17.000 Every married man knows that while it's the greatest gift, it's also a big change.

00:25:21.000 I'm joyfully adjusting all the habits I formed as a single man all the way down to my sleep schedule. 0.96

00:25:28.000 One part of this married man's routine will remain exactly the same. 0.51

00:25:31.000 You want to know what it is?

00:25:33.000 Every night before going to bed, I still take two capsules of magnesium breakthrough by buy optimizers.

00:25:39.000 Don't get me wrong, I'm not taking any old generic synthetic magnesium pills.

00:25:44.000 I only take magnesium breakthrough.

00:25:46.000 Why?

00:25:47.000 Well, simply put, there are seven unique forms of magnesium.

00:25:50.000 By leveraging all seven forms in each capsule, I'm able to experience magnesium's deep restorative sleep benefits.

00:25:58.000 If you're having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, try magnesium in your nightly regimen and be amazed by how much healthier your sleep patterns become.

00:26:34.000 I just find it to be so it's so creepy the way that they're pushing this thing.

00:26:40.000 And again, I just generally don't trust anyone in that entire community.

00:26:45.000 And they won't answer any questions about this.

00:26:48.000 We've tried to have these people on our show.

00:26:49.000 Like, hey, can someone from the NIH come on our show and ask these, answer these questions? 0.99

00:26:53.000 Like, no, shut up, racist. 0.99

00:26:54.000 Like, okay, whatever. 0.99

00:26:55.000 And so it's like, no, I actually want you to tell our audience and explain these things.

00:27:01.000 Explain what an emergency youth authorization is.

00:27:04.000 Explain why there had to be some suspensions of the administration of it.

00:27:07.000 And we just never get any clear answers on that.

00:27:10.000 And so, Governor, let's talk about some other current events.

00:27:13.000 The border is wide open.

00:27:15.000 We're seeing a lot of problems related to that. 0.79

00:27:17.000 China seems to continue to strengthen and influence. 0.92

00:27:20.000 There's a tax on our Second Amendment rights. 0.93

00:27:22.000 We need to fix the way we do elections in our country to make sure we have fair and transparent elections in the future.

00:27:30.000 If you had to name one or two of the most important things in front of us, what do you think are the things we have to focus on?

00:27:37.000 Because they're strategies to try to distract us amongst many different problems.

00:27:40.000 Oh, right.

00:27:41.000 I mean, it's one thing after another, after another, that they are using as distractions.

00:27:45.000 There are a couple issues, though, that we really need to keep tabs on.

00:27:48.000 One is school choice.

00:27:49.000 That's going to be a big issue coming up.

00:27:53.000 Oh, yeah, that's fundamental.

00:27:58.000 Any atrophying of our Bill of Rights, though, anything that they are doing, like Second Amendment rights, our freedom of speech, that one, our freedom of speech, because once that is gone, you know what the aim is when they don't want you to talk about something.

00:28:15.000 What that leads to is they don't want you to think about something so that you won't be tempted to talk about something.

00:28:22.000 And history shows, you know, through some time-tested truths, what tyrants are able to do to the masses as they chip away, take away, take away that freedom of speech.

00:28:38.000 It's thought control because they do want to control what you're thinking so you will not speak it.

00:28:44.000 So you have to look at each one of these issues.

00:28:48.000 What's the end goal of them?

00:28:51.000 As they take away more and more of our freedoms, what is it that they actually want?

00:28:56.000 And when you go there, it should make you rise up and say, no, this is America.

00:29:03.000 Our country is based on freedom.

00:29:06.000 We dedicated this land to God, our founding fathers.

00:29:10.000 We have been blessed because of that.

00:29:13.000 We have made a covenant with the people for generations that we would be a free country where that beacon of hope for any other country, any other person around the globe would be able to look at America and say, oh, that is the land of the free.

00:29:29.000 Let us strive to be that, to do that.

00:29:32.000 Now, if that is taken away, there is no other place on earth.

00:29:38.000 There is nowhere to go.

00:29:40.000 We cannot let that happen.

00:29:43.000 So each one of these issues chipping away at that right, at that right, at that freedom, at that freedom.

00:29:50.000 Once that snowballs, then it is gone. 1.00

00:29:55.000 So you girls need to get ready to start running for office. 1.00

00:29:58.000 School board, city council, borough and county offices, state governments. 1.00

00:30:05.000 We need you in there.

00:30:07.000 And don't think that you're too young.

00:30:09.000 Don't think you're not qualified.

00:30:10.000 I started very young.

00:30:12.000 I was in PTO, PTA, then ran for city council.

00:30:15.000 Then I was a city manager, a mayor, oil and gas commissioner.

00:30:18.000 See, I have to give my resume because people always think, oh, she's just a hockey mom from Wasilla, governor, and then VP candidate and doing these other things.

00:30:29.000 And if you start foundationally at that level, of local level, you learn what public service is all about.

00:30:36.000 You are so accountable.

00:30:38.000 You go to the grocery store and someone's going to bug you about the dog that's barking at four o'clock in the morning in their neighborhood and you're the mayor, so you better go fix the problem.

00:30:48.000 You are accountable from budgets where you're spending your grandma who lives in your town where you're spending her tax dollars.

00:30:56.000 You have a public servant's heart, or you're not going to do well on the local level.

00:31:01.000 I wish our politicians who were in that upper echelon, I wish they all would have started on the local level so that they could understand what public service is, literally.

00:31:11.000 And reclaiming that idea of citizen government.

00:31:17.000 And so, in closing, Governor, there's so many young women here, and you touched on this a little bit, that want to know what they can do and how they can do it.

00:31:26.000 Just share some more wisdom that you have about some of the difficulties they're going to face.

00:31:30.000 There's going to be times when they want to give up.

00:31:32.000 How do they keep going?

00:31:33.000 Yeah.

00:31:34.000 Again, you have to know that you can look around and notice and see it strengthening one another.

00:31:40.000 We're not alone in this.

00:31:42.000 And I would encourage you, in a practical sense, to be ready to run for office and to help others get elected who share these priorities, who share the ideology, who share just a basic common sense, constitutional conservatism that runs through their veins.

00:32:00.000 Stay loyal to them.

00:32:01.000 Because what I find in the business of media and politics, I have a journalism degree.

00:32:07.000 I started out in sportscasting and worked in the news.

00:32:10.000 Media and politics, loyalty is like a non-existent virtue.

00:32:15.000 So when you find people whom you can support, stick with them through thick and thin.

00:32:21.000 Stick with them when you see them getting clobbered by the mainstream media, lame stream media.

00:32:26.000 Stand up for them.

00:32:27.000 Help them out.

00:32:28.000 We have to do this as a team. 1.00

00:32:31.000 The left, yeah, nope, we don't believe they're wacko. 0.98

00:32:34.000 They are so wacko and they're getting worse and worse. 0.99

00:32:37.000 But they're good at sticking together at least. 1.00

00:32:40.000 And that's why they've been able to just boulder through some of these issues because we've been too splintered.

00:32:47.000 Well, and I agree.

00:32:48.000 And I just, I say this to a lot of conservative audiences that we have.

00:32:51.000 There's all this like drama at times on Twitter of like conservatives going after each other.

00:32:56.000 It drives me nuts.

00:32:57.000 I mean, there's so few of us that are actually in the courage, like trying to be courageous and in that space.

00:33:02.000 And you guys are part of it.

00:33:04.000 And even if you disagree with someone, there's this thing called direct messaging.

00:33:07.000 You could do it privately.

00:33:08.000 You don't have to put it publicly.

00:33:09.000 Oh, I'm going to go tell the world why I'm right.

00:33:11.000 It drives me nuts.

00:33:13.000 And so, Governor, I truly believe that culturally we are going to win when people start rising up.

00:33:19.000 And most specifically, when women start to rise up.

00:33:23.000 Closing, tell us the role of conservative women broadly and generally and what that means for America.

00:33:29.000 Oh, my goodness, it's time for conservative women, young women, to have their voice heard, to be able to let your priorities be known. 0.99

00:33:40.000 Because what you're standing for, no, please, no, gals. 0.95

00:33:43.000 What you're standing for is right. 1.00

00:33:45.000 Time-tested truths that prove foundationally what you believe in is right.

00:33:51.000 We can't go wrong with what we believe in, what the message is, because it is right.

00:33:57.000 It's just a matter of us really being able to get out there.

00:34:02.000 You see all the press that like AOC gets, you know, she just walks on water according to all the press. 0.89

00:34:09.000 It's because she's loud. 1.00

00:34:11.000 Well, you know, a lot of women have been taught not to be loud, to sit back and be pretty and be polite. 1.00

00:34:19.000 And, you know, that's passe. 1.00

00:34:22.000 We just can't, we can't afford to do that anymore.

00:34:25.000 We need to be the ones bold, courageous, loud, louder than they are.

00:34:31.000 Well, Governor, I know I speak on behalf of all these amazing young women from across the country.

00:34:36.000 Thank you for being such a good role model.

00:34:37.000 And we didn't touch on this, but you're a hunter.

00:34:41.000 So, no matter what you say or do, you're high in my book because you actually are in nature and you understand the beauty of it and you talk about it.

00:34:48.000 So, thank you for that.

00:34:49.000 And you have a large family and you're such a good role model.

00:34:53.000 And I hope every single one of you, young conservative women, and this is our nation together, will look to the governor as a role model, as someone who has just done everything they could.

00:35:04.000 A lot of you weren't really able to see back.

00:35:07.000 Yeah, this was 2008, right, Governor.

00:35:09.000 The summer of 2008, you gave the most amazing speech in Minneapolis at the Republican National Convention.

00:35:17.000 Probably one of the most amazing.

00:35:18.000 Everyone should go look it up. 0.82

00:35:19.000 And you have refused to apologize to these maniacs.

00:35:22.000 You have never backed down to them.

00:35:24.000 You have stayed true to who you are when other people, not going to say other names who are also at that convention, have always tried to sue for peace.

00:35:31.000 And you have always held the line.

00:35:32.000 And you deserve to be thanked for that, Governor, because you are a hero in my book.

00:35:35.000 So thank you so much.

00:35:36.000 So thank you guys.

00:35:37.000 Thank you so much.
