00:05:02.000 It is victory day today, everybody.

00:05:04.000 Now, it's not ultimate victory.

00:05:05.000 We got a lot of work left to do, trust me.

00:05:08.000 But yesterday was a historic day.

00:05:11.000 Last night, we started to see the citizen uprising that we knew was happening manifest itself in every single corner imaginable across the country.

00:05:23.000 From Virginia to New Jersey to Seattle to New York City to Pennsylvania.

00:05:30.000 It wasn't just the governor's race in Virginia, which we're going to get into in great detail, that shows citizens being co-rulers and no longer being subjects of their country.

00:05:41.000 But people on television are so surprised.

00:05:44.000 They are, they're shocked, you could say, that their masking children vaccine mandate, their lockdown of the church agenda is somehow widely unpopular.

00:06:00.000 It's as if they weren't looking at the Biden regime's plummeting poll numbers, at the inflation, at the Afghanistan debacle.

00:06:08.000 And for so many people, last night was their first opportunity to finally send a message to the American ruling class.

00:06:16.000 We tried protests.

00:06:18.000 We tried exemption letters.

00:06:21.000 We tried writing our elected officials and pleading with them to stop.

00:06:27.000 We tried reasoning with school boards.

00:06:30.000 We tried starting even a new Twitter back in January before that got obliterated.

00:06:36.000 We tried waiting our turn.

00:06:38.000 But what yesterday was, were people in deep blue states that have had enough.

00:06:43.000 And regardless of political affiliation, regardless of political affiliation, yesterday, what you saw in specifically Virginia and New Jersey, and we'll get into the new Jersey specifics momentarily here because we're not exactly sure how it's going to shake out, but it looks like it's going to be a squeaker for the Democrat barely.

00:07:01.000 What I mean by barely, like 7,000 to 10,000 votes, whereas that Americans are willing to abandon whatever political ideology or jersey that they're supposed to wear for the betterment of their nation and their family and the well-being of their fellow countrymen.

00:07:20.000 What you saw last night was the beginning of the takeback of the country from the people who took it from us. 0.99

00:07:31.000 So let's start with Virginia.

00:07:32.000 Last night in Virginia, it was front and center.

00:07:34.000 You had Terry McAuliffe, who is a Clinton operative and was former governor of Virginia from 2013 to 2017.

00:07:42.000 You're not allowed to serve two consecutive terms as Virginia governor.

00:07:45.000 You're term limited just to one term, but you could serve more than one term if you want.

00:07:49.000 Then Governor Ralph Northam served this last term.

00:07:51.000 And so McAuliffe wanted to be governor again.

00:07:55.000 McAuliffe was comfortably in the lead in a deep blue state of Virginia.

00:07:59.000 No one really questioned that McAuliffe was going to be the next governor until all of a sudden, moms and dads at school boards across Loudoun County, Fairfax County, and across Virginia started to create a new political coalition.

00:08:13.000 Started to create a political coalition that was going to challenge the education cartel, challenge Randy Whitegarten from the American Federation of Teachers, challenge the National Education Association.

00:08:27.000 And we saw this race tighten.

00:08:29.000 And Terry McAuliffe, while he was running, decided to say parents have no say over their children's education.

00:08:37.000 That parents have no, let's say, input in how their children are even going to be raised.

00:08:46.000 And when you see Terry McAuliffe, time and time again double and triple down on this, all of a sudden, voters in Virginia, and by the way, Virginia being a high-net worth, high-income state, especially around the suburbs of Washington, D.C., you started to see people abandon their team left Jersey and they say, I might vote for a Republican for the first time in my life.

00:09:11.000 Now, instead of getting the memo or getting the message, Democrats in control, Terry McAuliffe and Obama and Clinton and Kamala Harris, they doubled and tripled down on their Virginia strategy.

00:09:26.000 In addition, we started to see cover-ups from the Loudoun County School of the rapists that went into women's bathrooms and raped young girls multiple times in the cover-up of that.

00:09:36.000 And Terry McAuliffe said explicitly, let's just go to Cut 37, what he said on school choice, I will never allow that as governor.

00:09:45.000 This was Terry McAuliffe's stated position, play cut 37.

00:09:48.000 It is a Donald Trump Betsy DeVos plan of moving money from public to private.

00:09:54.000 I will never allow that as governor.

00:09:57.000 And Terry McAuliffe then said in Cut 38, I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.

00:10:02.000 Play cut 38.

00:10:03.000 That I'm not going to let parents attend to schools and actually take votes out and make their own decision.

00:10:09.000 You vetoed it.

00:10:10.000 So, you stopped the bill that I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.

00:10:16.000 I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.

00:10:18.000 So, how'd that work out for you, Terry McAuliffe?

00:10:21.000 Glenn Young shocked the political world last night and won the Virginia governor's race as a challenger, insurgent Republican.

00:10:29.000 And he won it rather convincingly.

00:10:31.000 As the final vote tally shows, it shows that Glenn Young has defeated Terry McAuliffe by 2.1 points or 71,000 votes.

00:10:41.000 71,000 votes.

00:10:42.000 Virginia was the pressure cooker, everybody, of a woke lash, not a white lash, but a woke lash. 0.99

00:10:50.000 A woke lash was a coalition of people together that said, enough of the white fragility, enough of white privilege, enough of hiring airline pilots based on the color of their skin, enough of black-only dormitories, enough of black-only graduation ceremonies. 0.70

00:11:03.000 I've had enough.

00:11:04.000 Whoever is against that, that's who I'm for.

00:11:07.000 Even if I might disagree with them on some social policy, I know this is not good for the direction of my children, our country, and our nation.

00:11:16.000 And what you saw all across Virginia is not only did this work in Democrat areas like Loudoun County, where the final count shows that Youngkin only lost Loudoun County by 11 points when Republicans traditionally lose it by 20 to 25 points, is that Glenn Young actually ran up the score in rural Virginia.

00:11:38.000 In Southwest Virginia, Glenn Young actually outperformed Donald Trump in certain areas.

00:11:42.000 In Virginia Beach, he stunned the political world by actually winning parts of Virginia Beach, a traditional Democrat stronghold.

00:11:49.000 And in the Richmond area, Terry McAuliffe did not hit any of his projections that he needed that was necessary for him to become governor of Virginia.

00:11:58.000 Now, despite this, many of us that were watching last night, and many of you on the live stream, we endured a very long evening of nail-biting and anxiety-inducing type coverage because we, what does it say for the American Republic where we are so conditioned to have late night ballot dumps that we are not willing to go to sleep until every network has officially called it, every person has conceded.

00:12:24.000 And that's exactly what happened last night.

00:12:25.000 We didn't go to bed till 3:30, 30, 3:30 in the morning because we had this kind of PTSD from the 2020 election where you think everything's fine and 3 a.m. vote dump.

00:12:34.000 And there was a lot of chatter last night around 1.15 in the morning.

00:12:38.000 I went more like we're at midnight where Republicans were getting very nervous.

00:12:41.000 They said, I think they're going to do their sort of shenanigans or their tomfoolery again.

00:12:46.000 But Youngkin won so convincingly that they were not able to round up what they needed in Fairfax.

00:12:51.000 Young won so convincingly that they were not able to go find ballots in every single direction.

00:12:57.000 And Terry McAuliffe was supposed to waltz in as governor of Virginia.

00:13:03.000 And this is more than just a conservative uprising because it's part of that.

00:13:07.000 It is.

00:13:07.000 The base was fired up last night.

00:13:10.000 The conservative base was ready to go.

00:13:13.000 This is though that citizens are taking back their government.

00:13:17.000 And for anyone that was cynical or lost hope in the last nine months, I want to tell you that there is life left in our republic.

00:13:25.000 That we got a lot left in us before you preemptively all of a sudden give the eulogy of the downfall of America.

00:13:32.000 We got a lot of life left in us.

00:13:38.000 I want you to imagine 100,000 Americans losing their jobs.

00:13:43.000 Well, you can stop imagining and dreaming because it's a reality.

00:13:47.000 Since 2015, over 100,000 independent farms and ranches in the United States have shut down.

00:13:52.000 Why?

00:13:53.000 Because foreign meat is stealing their business and robbing you of the quality and flavor you deserve. 1.00

00:13:59.000 That's why Good Ranchers is here. 0.93

00:14:02.000 They exist to support local American farms to help you make great American meals.

00:14:07.000 Together, they want you to restore the American ranch and your meals to their former glory.

00:14:12.000 Get the beef, chicken, and seafood that can't be imported or matched at goodranchers.com.

00:14:18.000 Goodranchers.com does an amazing job, everybody.

00:14:20.000 Did you know the product of USA tag has been stolen by foreign countries?

00:14:24.000 They process their meat here and label it like it came from America.

00:14:28.000 Because of these labeling laws that favor foreign imported meat, over 100,000 independent American farms and ranches have closed since 2015.

00:14:35.000 Well, Good Ranchers has gone on a hunt and they have found the American meat, everybody.

00:14:40.000 Good Ranchers is here to put America first at the dinner table and farmers that work to raise the meat we eat.

00:14:45.000 Look, when we get Good Ranchers sent to the office, it's a fight.

00:14:48.000 It's a fury.

00:14:49.000 It is bedlam.

00:14:50.000 It literally is a controversial moment where people, they dig into their battle stances of who is going to get the T-bones, the fillets.

00:14:58.000 And here's the thing.

00:14:58.000 With goodranchers.com, you get three birds killed with one stone.

00:15:02.000 I never liked the expression because I kind of like birds.

00:15:04.000 So three mosquitoes killed with one SWAT because mosquitoes are no fun, everybody.

00:15:09.000 Mosquitoes are the bottom of the barrel.

00:15:11.000 I never liked to skin a cat either.

00:15:13.000 Who came up with that?

00:15:13.000 There's so many ways to skin a cat.

00:15:15.000 It's kind of a graphic thing.

00:15:16.000 How about this?

00:15:16.000 Three ways to kill a mosquito.

00:15:18.000 Everyone listen to this, unless you're fasting indefinitely, needs to eat, or else you're vegan.

00:15:18.000 One, boom.

00:15:23.000 If you're vegan, I got nothing for you.

00:15:24.000 But if you're non-vegan, number one, this place is for you because you have to eat.

00:17:17.000 There's something happening in the country, everybody.

00:17:19.000 I'm telling you, I love New Jersey.

00:17:21.000 I know a lot of people are always kind of trashing on New Jersey.

00:17:24.000 They have some of the toughest, proudest people in the country.

00:17:28.000 They really do.

00:17:29.000 They love their state and they're very defensive of it.

00:17:31.000 New Jersey was supposed to be a cakewalk.

00:17:35.000 10 points.

00:17:36.000 Murphy is going to waltz to victory.

00:17:38.000 And by the way, if Murphy ever thought him going on television and campaigning was a good idea, he should have pulled a Biden.

00:17:44.000 As soon as I saw him on TV, I got animated to try to make sure he's never in leadership again.

00:17:49.000 He's kind of got that, what did you say?

00:17:51.000 Roger Keaton look?

00:17:52.000 Like Michael Keaton look.

00:17:54.000 Michael Keaton used car salesman better call so hello, everybody.

00:17:57.000 And I am now the governor of New Jersey.

00:17:59.000 Thank you so much.

00:18:00.000 Am I playing my role?

00:18:01.000 Okay.

00:18:01.000 Thanks, Mile.

00:18:02.000 Thanks, Nick.

00:18:03.000 Good to see you.

00:18:04.000 And as a challenger, you have Jack Chitterelli, who just ran a grassroots campaign with almost no help whatsoever from the outside.

00:18:13.000 Zero help whatsoever.

00:18:15.000 And breaking right now, as we are doing this show, Republican Jack Chitterelli has just taken a 700-vote lead in the garden state.

00:18:26.000 None of this was supposed to happen.

00:18:29.000 Phil Murphy is calling up Tony Soprano.

00:18:32.000 He's calling up Don Coralone.

00:18:34.000 He's calling up everyone he possibly can.

00:18:37.000 And look, it's New Jersey.

00:18:39.000 So if you want to talk about shenanigans corner cutting, they perfected that entire thing.

00:18:46.000 I don't say that as an insult to New Jersey.

00:18:48.000 I'm just saying buckle up.

00:18:51.000 That's where a lot of this stuff, unfortunately, is centered.

00:18:58.000 Now, there's still a lot of votes left in Essex County.

00:19:00.000 I'm sure Stacey Abrams is on her way up.

00:19:03.000 But again, they probably, most of these ballots were probably on a ship off of the coast of Long Beach, California, and were never able to make it.

00:19:13.000 This is Pete Buttigieg.

00:19:16.000 If you said, Charlie, who do you think is going to pull it out?

00:19:19.000 I think that Phil Murphy is going to pull a Tony Soprano, and all of a sudden all these votes are going to show in Camden County.

00:19:26.000 But make no mistake, the fact that all of a sudden the next day we have to entertain that a Republican holds the lead, it's shocking.

00:19:35.000 It is a death blow to the Democrat regime.

00:19:39.000 So what we have here in New Jersey is a state of affairs where the Democrats were in such a comfortable position.

00:19:49.000 We're going to do a big windup for a man that needs to become a household name.

00:19:54.000 The real winner last night is the true citizen government.

00:20:00.000 True citizen government is what happened in New Jersey last night.

00:20:02.000 And I can't wait to share this with you.

00:20:05.000 It was just one of the most exciting, beautiful. bottom-up, organic, authentic political victories, I think, in the modern era.

00:20:18.000 Now, who would have thought that forcibly masking children and shutting down schools and having birthday parties at Obama's Martha's Vineyard house while you have to have your children be masked?

00:20:28.000 Whoever thought that would be unpopular?

00:20:32.000 And I also want to talk about election integrity because I think a lot of Republicans are getting this wrong.

00:20:36.000 A lot of Republicans say, oh, see, everything was perfect in Virginia.

00:20:41.000 Therefore, we have to stop talking about election integrity.

00:20:43.000 First of all, I don't think everything was perfect in Virginia.

00:20:45.000 I think we won by so much, we were able to overcompensate all the fair facts and nonsense.

00:20:50.000 But after I introduce you to the new national hero of the true citizen government, the man that we all are, this guy is the Richard Jewel of the 2021 American political story.

00:21:03.000 He's a man that didn't ask to be a hero, but it was deemed upon him because he wanted to do the courageous and epic thing.

00:21:09.000 And as it stands right now, he might actually be poised to unseat the longest serving state senator in New Jersey history, a man who spent $150 and it looks like he might win.

00:21:22.000 Stunning.

00:21:25.000 Every once in a while, a coffee company comes along that changes the way we think about our morning routine.

00:22:22.000 Those of you in Virginia, New Jersey, New York City, Seattle, we're going to go through all of that.

00:22:27.000 And I just want to encourage all of you that have not given up hope.

00:22:31.000 I know it was easy the last nine months to go into self-pity, turn off the news.

00:22:35.000 You showed up and you shocked the political world last night.

00:22:39.000 So I want to play a couple of clips there.

00:22:41.000 Then I want to introduce you to the new hero that should inspire all of you because people say, Charlie, I live in Oregon.

00:22:46.000 There's nothing I could do.

00:22:47.000 Charlie, I live in Colorado.

00:22:48.000 There's nothing I could do.

00:22:49.000 Charlie, I live in New Mexico.

00:22:51.000 There's nothing I could do.

00:22:52.000 Charlie, I live in New Jersey.

00:22:53.000 Oh, you live in New Jersey?

00:22:55.000 What if I told you a truck driver rejected cynicism and decided to do something?

00:23:03.000 Man, I love this story.

00:23:05.000 But first, I want to just play a little bit of just the collapse.

00:23:09.000 I want to just play a little bit of the video of the collapse of the Democrat regime in real time.

00:23:14.000 I want to go to 56 and 57 in order.

00:23:17.000 Let's play Cut 56, a little bit about the Virginia election results, play cut 56.

00:23:21.000 The House delegates is not going to go Republican.

00:23:23.000 This is a state that has not had a statewide Republican since 2009 when Bob McDonald was governor.

00:23:28.000 At the Senate level, at the gubernatorial level, the state was bright blue yesterday.

00:23:34.000 And now, as of next January, the state's going to be almost entirely in the control of Republicans.

00:23:39.000 And that's, you know, that's a bloodbath.

00:23:40.000 Well, bloodbath in the state that Democrats have dominated, dominated for the past decade.

00:23:46.000 And Republicans have taken control of the Virginia House of Delegates 5149 that no one saw coming.

00:23:54.000 Cut 57, John Carl from ABC says this is a sonic boom of a wake-up call for Democrats, but they won't heed the wake-up call.

00:24:01.000 Instead, you have Pelosi and Schumer say, oh, this is why we need to go spend these trillions of dollars we don't have on programs that are unpopular.

00:24:09.000 Honestly, Democrats, I hope you guys try to implement CRT in every single school district across the country, not because it's good for the country, it's super damaging, but voters hate it so much that it's the greatest political gift to conservatives you could imagine.

00:24:22.000 Play Cut 57.

00:24:24.000 George, this is a sonic boom of a wake-up call for Democrats.

00:24:30.000 Biden won Virginia by 10 points just a year ago.

00:24:34.000 He won New Jersey by 16 points.

00:24:37.000 And the big factor is the one you mentioned.

00:24:40.000 Republicans vastly outperformed in the suburbs.

00:24:43.000 That is precisely where the battle for control of Congress will be waged next year in the midterm election.

00:24:49.000 And so all across the country, you are seeing this trend.

00:24:56.000 But I want to focus in on one story.

00:24:58.000 I want to focus in on a man who decided to take things into his own hands.

00:25:04.000 I want to talk about a race that was not even supposed to be close.

00:25:11.000 I want to talk about a race against the ultimate political machine leader.

00:25:18.000 So there is a man in New Jersey, and I don't expect our national audience to know about this, by the name of Steve Sweeney.

00:25:26.000 Steve Sweeney is the longest-serving leader in New Jersey history, and he was supposed to just waltz to victory.

00:25:34.000 No problem.

00:25:35.000 No one's ever challenged him.

00:25:37.000 Total machine politician.

00:25:39.000 You look at him and you know there's dirty deals being done.

00:25:42.000 But so many of you are being constantly propagandized to not stand up and fight.

00:25:51.000 And I understand it's tempting.

00:25:53.000 So many people are saying, Charlie, I live in Oregon.

00:25:57.000 I live in Colorado.

00:25:58.000 What's the point?

00:26:00.000 Well, Edward Durr, everybody, I want to introduce you to him.

00:26:03.000 Edward Durr is a truck driver.

00:26:05.000 He's never served in political office before.

00:26:07.000 He is the kind of epitome of a boomer conservative.

00:26:11.000 And I don't mean that as a pejorative.

00:26:13.000 I don't mean that as an insult.

00:26:14.000 He just is.

00:26:15.000 You look at, he doesn't have a campaign website.

00:26:17.000 Okay.

00:26:18.000 He ran for office without a campaign website.

00:26:22.000 He spent $150 in his race, $150.

00:26:28.000 And according to the latest tabulation, Edward Durr is up four points.

00:26:35.000 Is that right?

00:26:36.000 He is up four points against the state Senate president, Steve Sweeney.

00:26:43.000 It's becoming national news.

00:26:45.000 But who is Edward Durr?

00:26:46.000 Politico did a story on meet Ed Durr, the candidate who might knock off Steve Sweeney out of the Senate.

00:26:52.000 Who is this guy?

00:26:53.000 Does he come from billions of dollars?

00:26:55.000 Did he invent Facebook?

00:26:57.000 Is he the CEO of Tesla?

00:26:59.000 Did he develop the Chinese coronavirus vaccine?

00:27:02.000 No.

00:27:03.000 Edward Durr is your uncle.

00:27:06.000 Edward Durr is the guy that is part of the muscular class of this country who's had enough.

00:27:11.000 And quite honestly, Edward Durr, 30 years ago, might have been a Democrat.

00:27:15.000 Edward Durr is the type of guy that decided to get off of the sidelines and out of the stands and stop being a spectator.

00:27:22.000 And so, you know what?

00:27:23.000 If I'm going to try to save this country and try to save New Jersey, I might as well do something about it.

00:27:28.000 Edward Durr is exactly what the founding fathers envisioned as a citizen government.

00:27:33.000 This guy spends $150 and he unseats the Senate president of New Jersey.

00:27:39.000 And so this is making the entire New Jersey political world's headspin.

00:27:44.000 He is the embodiment of the muscular class, not the Zoom and Skype class, not the ruling class.

00:27:50.000 Remember, last night was all about the people who run the country and people who make the country run.

00:27:55.000 And if you, you can't think of a better example of that than Edward Durr.

00:27:59.000 He's a truck driver.

00:28:00.000 He makes the country run.

00:28:03.000 He allows products to be delivered.

00:28:05.000 And Edward Durr is the ultimate example of someone that actually didn't think they were going to win.

00:28:12.000 You look at his picture, he has a superimposed American flag behind him.

00:28:16.000 It's as if he just kind of went to kind of one of the photo booths at the local Walgreens, took a campaign picture, and had it superimposed.

00:28:24.000 This guy's a hero.

00:28:28.000 I want to play first his campaign ad.

00:28:30.000 Now, why you say Charlie Woods would play his campaign ad?

00:28:32.000 Because it's so incredibly grassroots.

00:28:36.000 It's inspiring.

00:28:37.000 It's him walking through a cemetery and then walking by a convenience store and then him getting on his motorcycle.

00:28:44.000 And it was probably produced by just kind of a local intern.

00:28:49.000 And he's going to win, it looks like.

00:28:52.000 I mean, Connor, am I reading that correctly?

00:28:56.000 If Edward Durr can do it, you can do it.

00:28:59.000 And how much did Donald Trump lose New Jersey by?

00:29:02.000 I think it was 20 points, right?

00:29:04.000 How much?

00:29:05.000 So I want every single person there just to put a reality check for your own because we got a lot of blue state listeners, a lot.

00:29:11.000 We have a lot of California listeners.

00:29:12.000 We have a lot of Washington listeners.

00:29:14.000 We have a lot of Hawaii listeners.

00:29:16.000 We have a lot of blue state listeners.

00:29:18.000 We have a lot of Massachusetts listeners.

00:29:21.000 Edward Durr is proof that you can do it.

00:29:26.000 All right, let's play his campaign ad, PlayCut 69, and then I want to play his post-election interview.

00:29:31.000 Again, $150.

00:29:34.000 No special effects, no graphics.

00:29:38.000 This is just a dude who wants his country back.

00:29:41.000 Play Cut 69.

00:29:44.000 Hello, my name is Edward Durr.

00:29:46.000 I'm running for New Jersey State Senate.

00:29:48.000 I've lived here all my life, raising my three kids.

00:29:54.000 In 2020, my opponents sat by and watched as Governor Murphy forced nursing homes to take in COVID-19 patients, resulting in the death of over 8,000 of our seniors.

00:30:06.000 He remains silent as Governor Murphy with his lockdown and mandates forced the closing of over one-third of all small businesses, costing New Jersey family thousands of jobs.

00:30:17.000 He has done nothing as seven out of every 10 moves are leaving the state, placing a heavier burden on those of us who remain.

00:30:27.000 The Senate president has spent 20 years in Trenton.

00:30:31.000 Higher taxes, increasing debt, and a rising cost of living.

00:30:36.000 We deserve better.

00:30:38.000 New Jersey, it's time for a change.

00:30:44.000 So together, let's end single party rule.

00:30:47.000 Vote for me, Edward Durr for Senate.

00:31:04.000 I love it.

00:31:06.000 That is uniquely American.

00:31:09.000 No other country could a truck driver just walk through a cemetery and buy a convenience store with a 16-year-old with a kind of a joggling iPhone camera and defeat the New Jersey state Senate president.

00:31:21.000 That is the definition of grassroots, everybody.

00:31:23.000 That is the definition of bottom-up, not top-down.

00:31:26.000 Edward Durr didn't have some sort of super PAC funded by Pfizer come in and fund his campaign.

00:31:31.000 Edward Durr did not have AstraZeneca come in and drop a million dollars in support of his campaign.

00:31:36.000 Edward Durr did not have Facebook come into the Center for Technology and Civic Life and have all these mail-in ballots.

00:31:42.000 No, Edward Durr is exactly what James Madison, John Jay, and Alexander Hamilton envisioned as citizens taking back their government.

00:31:50.000 Because Edward Durr did not have a father that was a monarch.

00:31:53.000 Edward Durr did not have special connections in Trenton.

00:31:56.000 Edward Durr was not a lobbyist.

00:31:58.000 He wasn't a corporate lawyer.

00:31:59.000 He's a truck driver.

00:32:01.000 Edward Durr decided to run because he said, you know what?

00:32:03.000 I'm just so sick and tired of my beautiful state, New Jersey, being deteriorated by people that hate it.

00:32:08.000 And that's a beautiful thing.

00:32:10.000 Let's play Cut 70 of Edward Durr, who looks like he is going to win.

00:32:15.000 Edward Durr in his post-election interview, Play Cut 70.

00:32:20.000 I have no idea what's going on.

00:32:22.000 I am really trying to grasp all this.

00:32:26.000 It is, I knew it would be a major upset.

00:32:30.000 And the funny thing is, whenever I went around the door to door, everybody, the first words out of their mouth was, Good luck.

00:32:39.000 Like they knew the political power that was being wielded down here.

00:32:43.000 I would get people who sent me $50, sent me $25.

00:32:46.000 They said, listen, I don't like the guy.

00:32:49.000 I want to see you do well.

00:32:50.000 And so I did what I could.

00:32:53.000 You're a Harley Riding Eagles fan who's a truck driver.

00:32:57.000 I mean, we don't have some real people in these state houses.

00:33:01.000 I've said this before.

00:33:03.000 I'm as blue collar as you're ever going to find.

00:33:06.000 The first thing, I love it.

00:33:07.000 I have no idea what's going on.

00:33:10.000 It reminds me of Ricky Bobby.

00:33:12.000 I don't know what to do with my hands.

00:33:16.000 And he's a Harley riding Eagles fan truck driver.

00:33:20.000 Yes, you are what makes this country run.

00:33:22.000 And honestly, Edward Durr, you are far more qualified to run this country than the criminals that have been doing it the last 30 years.

00:33:29.000 If we had more people like Edward Durr sitting in committee meetings using common sense that is accrued by driving trucks and raising a family, he's a grandfather of six and a father of three.

00:33:38.000 I trust you infinitely more to go make decisions on lockdowns and vaccine mandates and mask mandates than some sort of transactional politician Sweeney.

00:33:47.000 Yeah, go like me.

00:33:48.000 No, I want more truck drivers in our government. 0.99

00:33:51.000 I want the muscular class to rise up.

00:33:53.000 And honestly, he didn't have to do this.

00:33:55.000 He didn't even think he was going to win.

00:33:57.000 You saw it in that video.

00:33:58.000 I don't know what's going on.

00:33:59.000 I just like it's one.

00:34:00.000 I love it.

00:34:02.000 And everybody listening right now, go.

00:34:04.000 No matter where you are.

00:34:05.000 You're in New York City, go run.

00:34:06.000 You're in Boston, you go run.

00:34:08.000 I do not want to hear again, Charlie, I can't take back the state.

00:34:10.000 Edward Durr is the mascot to retake the country from the ruling class.

00:34:15.000 And honestly, I couldn't think of a better embodiment.

00:34:19.000 A grandfather of six, a father of three, a Harley riding Eagles fan truck driver.

00:34:24.000 That is who makes this country run.

00:34:26.000 Not Pfizer, not AstraZeneca, but instead, Edward Durr.

00:35:42.000 Email us your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:35:47.000 I want to play some sound here.

00:35:49.000 I want to play, let's go to cut 59.

00:35:53.000 CNN describes how Americans are feeling under Joe Biden, fear, stress, anxiety, frustration.

00:35:58.000 Oh, they're finally getting the memo.

00:35:59.000 Play cut 59.

00:36:01.000 And that feeling that Americans have of fear, stress, anxiety, frustration about all sorts of issues, right?

00:36:13.000 And they might not have the same kind of anxiety about the same issue, but there is this feeling of dread, of discontent of a country that's sort of stalled out and not delivering in the way that Biden promised, that Democrats have promised as well in this last election.

00:36:34.000 Yeah, no kidding, hasn't delivered.

00:36:36.000 Now, one thing that people are focusing on, some people on the right, they say, now this shows that we shouldn't talk about election integrity ever again.

00:36:44.000 I disagree.

00:36:45.000 I think our emphasis on voter integrity put fear into the regime and backed them off to not cut corners again.

00:36:54.000 I think our emphasis on voter integrity actually made it less likely for them to try to do the same sort of shenanigans they did previously.

00:37:04.000 Now, some people are saying, well, Charlie, what about New Jersey?

00:37:06.000 First of all, I don't want to hear anyone talk about New Jersey, you know, cutting corners or doing all these things as Phil Murphy retakes the lead.

00:37:13.000 I think that's what we see.

00:37:14.000 We didn't campaign in New Jersey, okay?

00:37:16.000 Let's be honest with ourselves.

00:37:18.000 If we would have spent millions of dollars and done events and really taken it seriously, I only believe the argument that Kent should be given a platform of voter integrity when we really go all out.

00:37:32.000 When we really go all out, then I say, okay, then we're going to talk about it.

00:37:36.000 But New Jersey, no one was taking that seriously two weeks ago.

00:37:38.000 No one.

00:37:39.000 Maybe a couple people in New Jersey were.

00:37:41.000 I wasn't even taking it seriously.

00:37:43.000 But I also want to thank James O'Keefe for Project Veritas.

00:37:45.000 I think they played a big role in exposing what was happening in New Jersey.

00:37:49.000 It was absolutely terrific.

00:37:51.000 And look, when you look at what's happening in New Jersey, it's going back and forth.

00:37:56.000 Edward Durr, I still think is holding on, though, right?

00:37:59.000 Edward Durr, citizen extraordinaire, is holding on in the great state of New Jersey.

00:38:04.000 But people are saying, oh, Charlie, they're doing what New Jersey does.

00:38:07.000 It's New Jersey.

00:38:08.000 Of course they are.

00:38:09.000 They perfected it.

00:38:10.000 We had no infrastructure there.

00:38:12.000 I don't think the Republican Governors Association spent any money in New Jersey.

00:38:16.000 I don't think that there was any sort of massive effort.

00:38:20.000 And so I'm all for kind of talking about, I'm all for talking about voter integrity.

00:38:28.000 Don't get me wrong.

00:38:29.000 And I want to focus it on New Jersey.

00:38:30.000 If we can figure out what's happening with all these late night vote dumps in Bergen County, I think it's super important and everything.

00:38:36.000 But I think that we can't have that as a default position when we don't actually campaign in some of these states.

00:38:42.000 New Jersey was an afterthought.

00:38:44.000 Now, Virginia is a different story.

00:38:46.000 Now, if in Virginia, we would have saw what we're seeing in New Jersey right now, which is sudden 3 a.m. vote dumps and massive things and all this sorts of different stuff, then it's okay.

00:38:54.000 Hold on, time out.

00:38:55.000 Like, let's see what's really going on there.

00:38:58.000 But I never want it to be an excuse for us not to engage.

00:39:01.000 And I also want to say this, that credit to the MAGA base, it shows that we can walk and chew gum at the same time.

00:39:07.000 It shows that we can be worried about election integrity and that we're still going to show up to elections and not allow that to be kind of this spell of cynicism of I'm never going to vote again.

00:39:17.000 In Virginia, what you saw is that people that were worried about people that were coming into the process, meaning ballots going on every direction, signature verification issues, all this stuff.

00:39:26.000 But still, people showed up.

00:39:27.000 They said, hey, if we win by so much, they're not going to be able to cut the corners.

00:39:34.000 And Ron Meyer came on our program last evening, former Loudoun County supervisor, and he said that Republicans had precinct committeemen everywhere in Virginia last night looking at the ballot counting, looking at what was happening.

00:39:46.000 And that was an outgrowth, by the way, of all of our concern from the 2020 election.

00:39:51.000 And so here's what I'm saying: the balance needs to be struck.

00:39:54.000 We can never stop talking about election integrity, voter ID, ballot custody, signature verification issues.

00:40:00.000 But you have to reject anyone in circles that ever says, Charlie, what's the point of voting again?

00:40:04.000 Virginia is the point of ever voting again.

00:40:06.000 Edward Durr is the point of ever voting again.

00:40:09.000 And honestly, I want to thank all of you that entertained those thoughts and you rejected them.

00:40:13.000 Good for you.

00:40:14.000 Because I know it's tempting.

00:40:15.000 I know after the 2020 election, where it seemed like everything was going so well and it collapsed all around us, you're like, oh, what's the point?

00:40:22.000 The point is you can take back your government.

00:40:24.000 Things can make a difference.

00:40:25.000 The point is that Harley Davidson riding Eagles fan wearing truck driving middle class, muscular class grandfather of six and father of three normal people in South Jersey, they can make a big difference.

00:40:39.000 Everyone, what's happening in our country is amazing.

00:40:42.000 Let's talk about Pennsylvania for a second.

00:40:43.000 In Pennsylvania's Supreme Court race, conservatives held on to retiring Republic Justice Thomas Saylor's seat.

00:40:51.000 Republican Commonwealth Court Judge Kevin Brobsom defeated Democrat Superior Court Judge Maria McLaughlin by more than 100,000 votes, a massive judicial victory.

00:41:03.000 Democrats still outnumber Republicans in the state highest court, but in Pennsylvania court judge election, Republican Megan Sullivan defeated Democrat Lane Timka by nearly 300,000 votes.

00:41:17.000 And Pennsylvanians also voted in roughly a two-to-one margin to retain both Republican Superior Court judges John Bender and Mary Bose and Republican Commonwealth Court Judge Ann Covey and Renee Jublier.

00:41:32.000 Now, how about New York City?

00:41:34.000 Republicans won four New York City state city council seats.

00:41:39.000 That's right.

00:41:40.000 Republicans won city council seats in New York City City Council races.

00:41:45.000 New York, Republicans won four contested city council races in Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island and have a shot of a fifth potential upset seat.

00:41:54.000 With 87% of the vote in, Vernikov, a 37-year-old lawyer and Ukrainian native, garnered 10,768 votes or 65% of the vote.

00:42:05.000 She will succeed ex-councilman Chaim Deutsch, who forfeited his seat earlier this year when he is convicted of tax fraud.

00:42:13.000 The district includes many Russian-speaking and Jewish immigrants.

00:42:17.000 I'm reading from the New YorkPost.com in the communities of Brighton Beach, Manhattan Beach, Sheepshead Bay, and Homecrest.

00:42:23.000 Vernikov ran as an unabashed supporter of Donald Trump, and Donald Trump Jr. endorsed her in robot calls to voters, and she won.

00:42:31.000 She said, Quote, I'm very excited.

00:42:33.000 This election victory shows that people are fed up with the progressive policies that have destroyed our city and district in New York City, everybody.

00:42:40.000 That's right.

00:42:40.000 New York City.

00:42:42.000 Meet another one.

00:42:44.000 Meanwhile, Joanne Areola, she won in the 32nd district. 0.56

00:42:50.000 She's a Queens Republican leader and Howard Beach civic activist, and she trounced a left-wing Democrat progressive Felicia Singh in New York City.

00:42:59.000 How about another win?

00:43:01.000 In Staten Island, Republican David Carr defeated Democrat Sal Albanes, a former Brooklyn city councilman, and how about one more in New York City.

00:43:11.000 A Republican pulled off a huge upset in northeastern Queens.

00:43:15.000 Everybody, this woke lash goes from Seattle to New York City to Virginia to New Jersey to Pennsylvania.

00:43:26.000 This woman by the name of Vicki Paul Donino or Paladino, she won and defeated Tony Avella, Democratic city councilman, with 99% of the votes in. 0.81

00:43:40.000 Palladino shocked the New York political world with over 50% of the vote.

00:43:47.000 And city councilman Tony Avella, who's very powerful, has been defeated.

00:43:52.000 This red wave has gone all the way to Manhattan, everybody, in city and local elections.

00:43:59.000 So, how are Democrats nationally responding to this?

00:44:02.000 Cut 58.

00:44:02.000 How about this?

00:44:03.000 Andrea Mitchell decides to just say something that is so incredibly new and profound.

00:44:07.000 She says, hey, you know, the defund police messaging, I don't know if that's working.

00:44:12.000 Cut 58.

00:44:14.000 Well, the outcome in Minneapolis also reflects what Jim Clyburn warned back during 2020, that message about police and whether you call it defunding or reforming or becoming a public health safety department.

00:44:29.000 That doesn't work with voters. 0.88

00:44:30.000 Not in urban areas and probably not in other areas.

00:44:34.000 Yeah, I mean, the defund police movement, probably not a good idea.

00:44:39.000 Seattle City Attorney, everybody, Seattle.

00:44:42.000 I was just in the Emerald City. 0.65

00:44:43.000 That place is nuts.

00:44:44.000 But there's a remnant of great people in King County, all across that area, that are wanting their city back.

00:44:51.000 They want the safe, normal, reliable Scandinavian outpost in the Northwest part of the country, not run by radicals.

00:45:00.000 And as it stands right now, Republican, Republican, Republican Ann Davison is clobbering Nicole Thomas Kennedy for the race for the Seattle City Attorney. 0.99

00:45:17.000 Massive law and order.

00:45:19.000 This is for the Seattle City Attorney.

00:45:22.000 You know, after the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, defund the police.

00:45:26.000 Even in Seattle, in Wokestan, Seattle, people that got their ballot, they might have gone all Democrats.

00:45:32.000 And they're like, okay, I don't want my kid to get shot on the way to school.

00:45:36.000 Where's the Republican?

00:45:37.000 You know what this tells me about Seattle is that even Democrats know that when they want to be safe, they'll go to Republicans.

00:45:47.000 What this tells me right here with the Seattle City Attorney race, Ann Davis and 58.7%, Nicole Thomas Kennedy, in the Seattle City attorney race, a Republican is on pace to win by double digits in the Seattle City attorney race.

00:46:01.000 In Seattle, everybody.

00:46:04.000 How about in Minneapolis?

00:46:06.000 Well, last night, Minneapolis overwhelmingly rejected measures to replace the city police department, overwhelmingly decided to push back on calls to, quote, defund the police.

00:46:20.000 In Minneapolis and Seattle, the two Scandinavian cities that were going in the wrong direction reversed course last night.

00:46:27.000 And even they said, hold on a second.

00:46:29.000 What does this actually do to our city?

00:46:31.000 I don't know if I like this.

00:46:34.000 How about in San Antonio, in South Texas?

00:46:38.000 John Lujan flipped House District 118 in Texas special election runoff, winning by two points.

00:46:46.000 This is a Joe Biden plus 14 district in San Antonio that is 73% Hispanic.

00:46:56.000 73% Hispanic.

00:47:00.000 And so Democrats are trying to process all of this.

00:47:03.000 We're cut 60, David Axelrod says Democrats have no connection with blue-collar Americans.

00:47:08.000 You mean like Mr. Durr?

00:47:10.000 Cut 60. 0.52

00:47:10.000 You're right. 0.52

00:47:12.000 And in the Democratic Party, the messages tend to be moralizing.

00:47:18.000 We are going to tell you.

00:47:19.000 We will tell you what is right.

00:47:22.000 And no connection to people who work with their hands, people who work with their backs, rural voters.

00:47:30.000 So that's part of the problem.

00:47:32.000 David Axarod makes the point that we've been making on this show for a year and a half.

00:47:37.000 The Ed Der types, the muscular types, muscular class types, the guys that lift boxes and have to wear a mask all day long and have to be yelled at by the elites when Nancy Pelosi has her outdoor fundraiser for the Democrat House committee.

00:47:51.000 And meanwhile, every single person that waits on her has to wear a mask and she can snap her fingers and be served on at a moment's notice. 1.00

00:47:57.000 Yeah, those people, they're now becoming Republicans.

00:48:01.000 Republicans have an opportunity to build a governing coalition of 60 to 70% of the country of people that love the Constitution, that are members of the muscular class, that want to be citizens, not subjects.

00:48:11.000 And it's happening everywhere.

00:48:12.000 It'd be one thing if this was just an isolated incident, okay?

00:48:15.000 Let me tell you how profound this is.

00:48:17.000 I did not expect what I'm seeing right now.

00:48:19.000 I didn't.

00:48:20.000 I thought that it would be Virginia and a little bit of a ripple and the Democrats could explain this away.

00:48:25.000 I did not think on November 3rd, 2021, I'd be telling you that in Seattle, a Republican is winning by 17 points to become the new city attorney.

00:48:35.000 What this shows is that the reaction since Floyda Palooza and all the nonsense that happened in the CRT, $3 billion of damages burning down our country, how it has made America more profoundly dangerous, is that regardless of political affiliation of ideology, regardless of their views on abortion and their views on vaccines, that people don't want to have to worry about whether or not their five-year-old is going to get shot on the way to school.

00:49:01.000 That transcends political ideology.

00:49:03.000 It's the old George Foreman thing.

00:49:05.000 And I'll kind of rephrase it from modern politics. 1.00

00:49:07.000 Everyone's a Democrat till your daughter gets raped in the restroom. 1.00

00:49:13.000 I've been telling you guys about Relief Factor for quite some time. 0.99

00:49:15.000 And truth is, I know millions of people are, in fact, 100 million people are in some kind of pain.

00:49:20.000 Look, producer Andrew, he couldn't walk.

00:49:21.000 He was a hobbled individual. 0.96

00:49:23.000 He was bedridden in his chair, complaining all the time.

00:49:28.000 And then all of a sudden, we got this call from Relief Factor.

00:49:30.000 They said, hey, we want to partner with your show.

00:49:32.000 We're going to send you some Relief Factor.

00:49:33.000 Producer Andrew got it.

00:49:35.000 He took it, got a little bit better, took some more, got a little bit better.

00:49:38.000 Next thing you know, he's doing the Falseberry flop like you wouldn't believe. 0.86

00:49:41.000 In fact, he might be training for an Iron Man.

00:49:45.000 It's pretty incredible.

00:49:46.000 Now, he says it's thanks to Relief Factor.

00:49:48.000 I ask him all the time, Relief Factor?

00:49:50.000 He says relief factor.com, 100% drug-free supplement.

00:49:52.000 You can get it for less than the cost of a cup of coffee a day.

00:49:55.000 So go to relieffactor.com, and I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start to see if we can get you out of pain.

00:50:00.000 And then after that, it's less than the cost of a cup of coffee a day to stay out of pain.

00:50:03.000 So go to relieffactor.com.

00:50:05.000 That is relieffactor.com.

00:50:07.000 I'm telling you, a lot of people are in pain.

00:50:08.000 It's 100% drug-free.

00:50:09.000 Don't go to opioids.

00:50:11.000 Don't go to these other things.

00:50:12.000 Check it out at relieffactor.com.

00:50:17.000 Okay, I want to go into some of the other races that we kind of have touched on a little bit.

00:50:23.000 And okay, let me get the quote right.

00:50:24.000 Okay, first, Mike Tyson said, everyone has a plan until they're smacked in the face. 1.00

00:50:29.000 I have now, let's say, modernized it by saying everyone is a Democrat till your daughter gets raped by some trans person in the restroom. 0.99

00:50:37.000 I think that is the more modern side of it. 0.97

00:50:39.000 By the way, just as a side note, the mom of the skirt-wearing male teen of what happened in Loudoun County, Virginia, who raped two female girls, says son identifies as a male and just wanted sex as she berates the victim, saying to the young girl that was raped, you're 15, you can reasonably defend yourself.

00:50:58.000 That's where Loudoun County messed up the entire state of Virginia.

00:51:02.000 What we're going to explore in the next segment with James Lindsay, who is the author of Cynical Theories, I think he deserves so much credit for this, is that this whole thing, really, the underlying premise of what happened in New Jersey from Seattle to New York City is kind of America's reaction post-Floyd.

00:51:21.000 Part of it was vaccine mandates, part of it was mask mandates, but a lot of it was that racial reckoning that was just thrown down our throat.

00:51:30.000 That was just kind of forced down our throat, I should say.

00:51:32.000 And it was done so aggressively and abrasively and abruptly that the 2020 election with Trump was not a good reading on kind of how America thought about that.

00:51:43.000 This is now where all of a sudden that we've kind of had a chance to digest the meal of CRT and we want it gone.

00:51:48.000 We're like, I don't like this at all.

00:51:50.000 I don't like what it's doing to our children.

00:51:52.000 I don't like what it's doing to crime.

00:51:53.000 I don't like what it's doing to our streets.

00:51:57.000 Let's go to more sound here.

00:52:00.000 Van Jones on the Youngkin win in Virginia says, these are our voters.

00:52:04.000 We have abandoned, who have abandoned us in droves in two states that should be in our column.

00:52:08.000 This is a five-alarm fire.

00:52:10.000 Play cut 66.

00:52:13.000 This is a big deal.

00:52:16.000 These numbers are bad.

00:52:18.000 This is not some, these are our voters.

00:52:23.000 These are voters that came to us in 2018, came to us in 2020, and have abandoned us in droves in two states that should be in our column.

00:52:33.000 That's a big deal.

00:52:36.000 That is a five-alarm fire.

00:52:40.000 Your voters?

00:52:41.000 What arrogance?

00:52:42.000 These are our people.

00:52:43.000 Break.

00:52:45.000 Joe Scarborough piled on.

00:52:46.000 He said the Democrat Party needs to come to face with the issue of wokeism.

00:52:50.000 But here's the thing, is that since Republicans, and I will give Tucker Carlson great credit for this, I will give Candace Owens great credit for this.

00:52:57.000 I will give the Charlie Kirk Show team great credit for this.

00:53:00.000 I will give Turning Point USA credit for this and many others.

00:53:03.000 Since we had a zero tolerance policy for wokeism, the virus of wokeism has found a, let's just say, a reasonable place to fester and grow.

00:53:16.000 The virus is within the Democrat Party, and they know they can't get rid of it.

00:53:21.000 As soon as you make everything about racial identity politics within one organism, organization, or structure, it will win. 0.98

00:53:27.000 Wokeism will win because it's no rules except whoever the most oppressed is.

00:53:31.000 We as conservatives dismissed it.

00:53:33.000 We inoculated ourselves and we got rid of wokeism. 0.99

00:53:36.000 Therefore, it is the home of wokeisms in the Democrat Party.

00:53:40.000 Joe Scarborough is realizing this.

00:53:42.000 Play cut 76.

00:53:45.000 2009 Bobs for Jobs.

00:53:46.000 It's the same thing.

00:53:46.000 Right.

00:53:47.000 It's the same thing.

00:53:48.000 Here you have a lot of people saying that.

00:53:50.000 And we need to talk about this around the table a good bit because the Democrats are going to have to come face to face with this issue of wokeism.

00:53:58.000 They don't have to talk.

00:53:59.000 Not CRT, but wokeism.

00:54:01.000 Oh, yeah, not CRT, right, Joe, because CRT doesn't exist.

00:54:05.000 I don't think this is going to get better for Democrats anytime soon.

00:54:07.000 Wokeism is now within the internal operating system of the Democrat Party.

00:54:12.000 It's within their language, within their leadership structure, and how they organize themselves.

00:54:17.000 That virus is there to stay within the Democrat Party.

00:54:20.000 And it looks like it's weakening them every day.

00:54:24.000 Internet privacy is extremely important.

00:54:27.000 New 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.

00:54:38.000 So what are you doing to protect your search history?

00:54:41.000 Well, this is why you need Express VPN.

00:54:43.000 Using the internet without Express VPN is like going to the bathroom and not closing the door.

00:54:49.000 It's in fact even worse than that.

00:54:51.000 It's inviting someone to the bathroom, which is really weird and creepy.

00:54:53.000 Internet service providers know every single website you visit.

00:54:57.000 ISPs can sell this data and information to ad companies and tech giants who then use your data to target you.

00:55:05.000 ExpressVPN creates a secure encrypted tunnel between your device and the internet.

00:55:11.000 So your online activity cannot be seen by anyone.

00:55:14.000 It's as easy as closing the bathroom door and fire up the app and click one button.

00:55:18.000 I use it on all my devices, every device.

00:55:21.000 I have those beautiful three letters with a rectangle around it.

00:55:25.000 It's rated number one by CNET and tech radar.

00:55:29.000 Here's the cool thing: it works on phones, laptops, and even routers.

00:55:32.000 So everyone who shares your Wi-Fi can be protected.

00:55:36.000 Here's the thing: I have it on my iPhone.

00:55:38.000 I have it on my iPad.

00:55:40.000 I have it on my computer.

00:55:41.000 ExpressVPN for me has been a game changer to be able to know that the tech companies or the government have to go through a whole nother barrier to try to spy on us.

00:56:17.000 James, can you hear me?

00:56:20.000 Yeah, I can hear you, Charlie.

00:56:22.000 So, James, we are told CRT does not exist.

00:56:26.000 This was a huge political talking point last evening in Virginia and New Jersey.

00:56:32.000 Where does this come from, James?

00:56:33.000 You are the leader and you deserve credit for leaning the enlightenment against the woke.

00:56:38.000 Where do they get off for saying something like this over?

00:56:42.000 Well, they get off saying that because the propagandists are out in force because they want to hide the fact that not only does critical race theory exist, it exists in our schools.

00:56:52.000 It has been being taught in our schools for a number of years.

00:56:55.000 I was, in fact, just reading a book yesterday on a flight that's called The Critical Turn in Education that's structured around three main changes that made our education system in the United States Marxist since 1970.

00:57:07.000 And the third of the three main changes in education they list is critical race theory.

00:57:11.000 So, this is the propagandists are out in force because they don't want people to know that this is really happening.

00:57:17.000 Well, and so, and so, James, this is something that we've seen impact every single form of American society in every single fashion.

00:57:24.000 And so, James, you have come strong against the woke.

00:57:27.000 And I think what we saw yesterday is woke lash.

00:57:31.000 I want to play some sound here that I think is really important because some people are still denying that any of this stuff even exists.

00:57:42.000 And they are not taking the cue in any way whatsoever on this.

00:57:47.000 Kaylee McEniny did this quite well on Fox News last evening. 1.00

00:57:51.000 Let's try to play Cut 73.

00:57:53.000 Well, I think there's no evidence that critical race theory is being taught in the schools of the United States.

00:57:58.000 Juan, there's a ton of evidence.

00:57:59.000 But I do think Juan, have you done the Virginia Department of Education's website?

00:58:04.000 Let's find out there.

00:58:06.000 Virginia Department of Education on their website right now showing CRT is currently there as a best practice.

00:58:13.000 That is on the website Juan, not to mention a 2019 memo that went out, also praising critical race theory.

00:58:19.000 We have a picture of that too.

00:58:20.000 It is being taught.

00:58:21.000 And that's 72% of Americans, they're not crazy.

00:58:25.000 So, James, they are insisting that this does not exist.

00:58:28.000 They're telling parents they don't have a say in education.

00:58:31.000 You've been tracking this for quite some time.

00:58:33.000 Talk about how you've been seeing the backlash against this that has now manifested into a woke lash.

00:58:39.000 Okay, so first, let me just say, Kaylee was exactly right.

00:58:43.000 The Ed Equity Virginia program is written through with critical race theory.

00:58:47.000 Lists authors, people like Ibram Kendi, who people have heard of as a critical race theorist, Bettina Love, who argued that not teaching critical race theory spirit murders children of color in schools, and Gloria Ladsden Billings, who wrote the first paper called Toward a Critical Race Theory of Education in 1995.

00:59:06.000 So it's certainly there.

00:59:08.000 Even the Fairfax County Commissioner of Schools or something high in their school district recently said that they teach it.

00:59:14.000 Now, as far as the woke lash, as we're saying, goes, what's happened is that people have cottoned on to this.

00:59:21.000 They do not like the fact that there's this very divisive racist and Marxist indoctrination and reprogramming of our children happening in schools, happening in corporate HR departments, happening in universities, happening in institutions.

00:59:35.000 They don't like it.

00:59:36.000 And they've started to speak up.

00:59:37.000 But critical race theory interprets any resistance against critical race theory as proof that critical race theory is necessary.

00:59:45.000 And it predicts that there will be this kind of backlash.

00:59:47.000 What they are not prepared for, though, is to actually deal with the backlash because all we're seeing them do today is call everybody in the world a racist to say everything supports white supremacy, that Glenn Young ran on a platform of racism and white supremacy.

01:00:02.000 It's all preposterous propaganda because they don't have the argument on their side.

01:00:05.000 They've been lying to us for years.

01:00:09.000 Yeah, that's very well said.

01:00:10.000 And so as we dive into the details of all this, it looks like education is the number one issue.

01:00:17.000 And I think, I mean, you've done such a wonderful job of articulating this.

01:00:21.000 Now, Joy Reed in Cut 68 says that, quote, exit poll showed that coronavirus was not important to voters in Virginia.

01:00:29.000 It was education.

01:00:30.000 So, James, after this clip, I want you just to take it as soon as you hear, as soon as it's over, it's 34 seconds.

01:00:36.000 She says that this is code for white parents that don't like the idea of teaching about race.

01:00:41.000 James, I'll let you riff right after this play cut 68.

01:00:45.000 And the exit poll showed that, which was interesting, that the coronavirus or that the virus was a very low-size-to-many voter.

01:00:53.000 It was education, which is code for white parents don't like the idea of teaching about race.

01:00:59.000 And I mean, unfortunately, race is just the most palpable tool in the toolkit. 0.91

01:01:05.000 It used to be of the Democratic Party back in the day when there were Dixiecrats, and now of the Republican Party.

01:01:09.000 It just is powerful.

01:01:11.000 You know, that is exactly what we were just talking about.

01:01:13.000 The propagandists are out in force.

01:01:16.000 This is the critical race theory.

01:01:18.000 When it gets kicked on its heels, this is what it does: it says that everything that opposes it is just another manifestation of white supremacy here.

01:01:24.000 It uses very divisive race-baiting tactics, like saying that white parents don't want to have race education in the schools, and it becomes a white, black, or white minority racial issue so that it can be polarized around people's identities rather than to stick to the issues because they know that identities are very sensitive to people, they're very personal to people, and that when you get people operating in an identity-based frame, they don't want to talk about the issues rationally.

01:01:53.000 They talk about them in a way that's personal and emotional and effective.

01:01:57.000 And they know that this works, and that's why they're doing it.

01:02:00.000 But the joke's on them because the spell has broken.

01:02:04.000 Yeah, that's really well said.

01:02:06.000 I want to play another clip here.

01:02:07.000 I'm playing these clips just to understand.

01:02:09.000 So, James Lindsay wrote Cynical Theories, Everybody, which was the philosophical rebuttal to critical race theory, and he was ahead of the curve here.

01:02:17.000 And part of why I wanted to have you on the show, James, is that people say politics flows downstream from culture.

01:02:22.000 James was involved in the cultural battles early, and he was willing to do the political side too.

01:02:27.000 And James actually would consider himself a liberal.

01:02:30.000 That's not even what's important.

01:02:31.000 What's important is building a coalition against wokeism, which you've done such a great job of doing, James.

01:02:36.000 And I just wanted to make sure that our audience knew how important of a role you've played in this.

01:02:42.000 Let's cut play cut 51, and you can respond to this, James, as well.

01:02:45.000 Again, it's the same sort of thing, but it's important because people are hearing about this play cut 51.

01:02:51.000 I mean, he worshipped at the altar of Donald Trump on Fox News.

01:02:54.000 He flew an insurrection flag at his rallies. 0.98

01:02:57.000 He simply didn't, he played dumb about a Zoom rally. 0.95

01:03:02.000 He did not really put much distance between himself and Donald Trump on the big lie or the deadly insurrection. 0.97

01:03:09.000 Critical race theory, which isn't real, turned the suburbs 15 points to the Trump insurrection-endorsed Republican.

01:03:21.000 What do Democrats do about that? 0.97

01:03:23.000 So it's tempting to call what we just heard crazy or insane, but it is in fact very calculated propaganda that works on its target audience, which are the liberal viewing audience watching that.

01:03:36.000 And this is why what you just said before the clip, Charlie, is exactly right.

01:03:40.000 We need a broad coalition against wokeness, which is a very narrow way to care about issues like social justice. 0.99

01:03:46.000 That's something you care about.

01:03:48.000 It's one very specific way.

01:03:49.000 It's very divisive.

01:03:50.000 And you can hear in that clip what it does.

01:03:53.000 A, it uses very polarizing, divisive, narrative-driven ideas, insurrection to describe a thing, you know, no nuance whatsoever, just the most blazing thing that you could possibly say to get people worked up and afraid, tying everything to Trump to polarize around Trump.

01:04:10.000 They did this very effectively to the entire polity over the past five years.

01:04:15.000 And it's about time for it to stop.

01:04:16.000 But most importantly, critical race theory does not exist.

01:04:19.000 They also lie.

01:04:20.000 If you have somebody pushing a political movement that will brazenly lie about a theory that has been being developed, depending on which theorist you ask, since the early 1970s, maybe even from 1903 with W.E.B. Du Bois' views in The Souls of Black Folk about double consciousness, but certainly that was named in 1989 by Kimberly Crenshaw at a meeting she described in Madison, Wisconsin as being a bunch of Marxists meeting to talk about racial justice.

01:04:46.000 If you're going to say that that doesn't exist when it is a gigantic body of scholarship with many, many, many books, to say nothing of articles published about it, then you know that you're dealing with a political movement that is doing something very off-kilter.

01:05:01.000 It's lying to people.

01:05:02.000 It's gaslighting people and it's doing so in a very dangerous way.

01:05:06.000 So I just want to bring it back to what you said before the clip.

01:05:08.000 What we need is a broad coalition.

01:05:10.000 It's not liberal, it's not conservative.

01:05:12.000 It's not black. 0.98

01:05:12.000 It's not white. 0.98

01:05:13.000 It's not male.

01:05:14.000 It's not female. 0.86

01:05:14.000 It's a broad coalition led by parents, most of all, who realize that wokeness is a danger to their children, a danger to our future, a danger to our country, a danger to Western civilization. 0.86

01:05:27.000 And I think yesterday we started to see a repudiation of wokeism and a rebuttal to it and that broad-based coalition that comes at it from a lot of different political perspectives and understands that there are some fruits of the Enlightenment that are necessary to preserve, like freedom of speech, dialogue inquiry, the scientific method, respect of human dignity, human equality, you know, basic American traits and virtues and values that are under attack from forces that are pathological, ideological, and will not stop at anything.

01:05:55.000 And so, James, I just want to thank you for your contribution and service in all this because yesterday, I think, was an affirmation of a lot of the work that you've put into.

01:06:04.000 I know that at times you could be attacked from every single direction and, you know, it could be difficult.

01:06:08.000 But for people listening, you have to understand yesterday, when people started to get educated about CRT, understand where it came from.

01:06:14.000 There's a couple people that deserve credit.

01:06:16.000 And James Lindsay's on the Mount Rushmore of the metaphorical, let's say, slaying of the woke dragons.

01:06:25.000 James Lindsay is a hero in my book.

01:06:29.000 Now, not everyone's interested in precious metals, IRAs, or 401k rollovers.

01:06:33.000 Some people are happily putting their life savings on the stock market.

01:06:36.000 Some people are launching themselves into property investment.

01:06:39.000 Charlie Kirk here, all that what looks like the top of the market.

01:06:42.000 What could possibly go wrong with the supply chain issues and inflation is here and also coming even more, unemployment climbing.

01:06:49.000 Isn't it all a bit risky?

01:06:50.000 And don't even get started about the $25 trillion of debt.

01:06:54.000 If you've been thinking about investing safer, you can retire comfortably and sleep at night.

01:06:58.000 It's time to talk to Noble Gold about the tax advantages and other pluses of precious metal IRAs.

01:07:04.000 Of course, you might love uncertainty, but if you don't, this month, Noble Gold are giving away a free America, the beautiful solid silver five-ounce coin with any qualifying IRA you start.

01:07:33.000 Now, don't take your eye off this story, everybody.

01:07:37.000 Rochelle Walensky has just announced that Pfizer's Fauci virus vaccine will be available for all kids 5 through 11 injections starting tomorrow.

01:07:48.000 So we are going to, we're going to cover that extensively tomorrow.

01:07:52.000 We're back at mission control, aren't we, tomorrow?

01:07:54.000 Tonight, we're at the University of Alabama, everybody.

01:07:57.000 Roll tide.

01:07:57.000 Okay, I know everyone from Auburn is going to scream at me.

01:08:01.000 But in other news, Alabama is according, I think that Alabama was in the latest announcement of the college football playoff.

01:08:10.000 Is that right?

01:08:12.000 Oregon was number four, which is a beautiful thing to see.

01:08:14.000 It really was spectacular.

01:08:16.000 Email us your thoughts, as always: freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.

01:08:21.000 Ron Klain retweeted this weird thing saying that we're going to have vaccine hunter groups.

01:08:26.000 Really strange.

01:08:27.000 I don't want to spend too much time on that story today.

01:08:29.000 We got all tomorrow to unpack that because there's just so much good news there.

01:08:32.000 But I'm just telling all of you, don't take your eyes off of that story.

01:08:37.000 Do not take your eyes off of that story.

01:08:40.000 Okay, let's go to some sound here.

01:08:44.000 I want to just play another piece of sound.

01:08:46.000 We had James Lindsay, who's amazing.

01:08:47.000 I really enjoyed him.

01:08:48.000 There was one piece of sound I wanted to play, though, that we didn't play, which is, yeah, Cut 47, which is CNN on election night freaking out that voters are showing up because of the CRT issue.

01:08:57.000 Cut 47.

01:08:59.000 Glenn Young has seized on those issues as well as the idea about teaching critical race theory, which is not even in the curriculum officially in Virginia, but there are some voters here in Loudoun County who believe it's kind of unofficially being taught and they like Junckin's message on that, Jake.

01:09:14.000 Education is the number one issue.

01:09:17.000 Education is what flipped Virginia. 0.70

01:09:19.000 Well, American history and civics education is at a turning point.

01:09:23.000 And will we allow unelected bureaucrats and lobbyists to choose what school children are taught? 0.92

01:09:28.000 Or will we teach the entire truth?

01:09:31.000 My very good friends at Hillsdale College argue for teaching the truth and they have made the Hillsdale 1776 curriculum.

01:09:38.000 You say, Charlie, I'm inspired.

01:09:40.000 I want to teach my children the true history of America.

01:09:42.000 Well, stop what you're doing and write down this website, charlieforhillsdale.com.

01:09:47.000 That's charlieforhillsdale.com.

01:09:50.000 It's free of charge and it's available not only to teachers, but also to citizens who, just like you, share with other concerned Americans.

01:10:07.000 It allows students to learn from the tragedies and triumphs of American history as it really happened.

01:10:12.000 Only through a complete and honest study of our history can students fully understand the world in which they live.

01:10:20.000 Our children deserve to be taught the truth through a sound curriculum that was created by teachers, not unelected bureaucrats, and upholds the dignity of each individual.

01:10:31.000 America's future depends on an honest, candid look at our history.

01:10:35.000 So download the 1776 curriculum or take some of their wonderful online courses at charlieforhillsdale.com.

01:10:49.000 Charlie4Hillsdale.com.

01:10:53.000 So let's summarize all this together, everybody.

01:10:56.000 What happened yesterday?

01:10:58.000 What's still happening right now?

01:10:59.000 It was a pressure cooker.

01:11:01.000 People tried protests.

01:11:02.000 They tried exemption letters.

01:11:04.000 They tried writing their officials.

01:11:06.000 They tried reasoning with school boards.

01:11:07.000 They tried starting a new Twitter called Parlor.

01:11:10.000 They tried waiting their turn.

01:11:12.000 And instead, what you saw was Americans that did everything they were told and they said, find me a ballot.

01:11:18.000 I need to fill it out and I need to challenge the American ruling class. 0.55

01:11:21.000 And that is what happened yesterday.

01:11:23.000 From Ed Burr, seems like he's going to unseat the New Jersey Senate president to the shockingly close race in New Jersey where Murphy has now retaken the lead, from the repudiation of Clintonism and Obamaism in Virginia.

01:11:37.000 This was a woke clash.

01:11:39.000 But more than that, we have to understand this is not just what people were against.

01:11:42.000 It's what people were for.

01:11:44.000 It's parents reasserting their role to say that they're in charge.

01:11:49.000 It's parents no longer being spectators and watching from afar and being timid and letting other people bully and intimidate their children.

01:11:57.000 From the city attorneys race in Seattle to the New York City City Council race of electing Republicans to what we are seeing to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court races all across the country with people that have never met each other before, thousands of miles apart.

01:12:11.000 They're all saying the same thing.

01:12:13.000 Slow down.

01:12:14.000 We don't want this anymore.

01:12:16.000 We want the American way of life and we're willing to actually contest for it. 0.89

01:12:23.000 This is the beginning, everybody.

01:12:26.000 A journey starts with a single step and the journey of retaking our country.

01:12:30.000 I'm finally starting to see a new chapter of Americans starting to fight. 0.50

01:12:35.000 We are seeing Senate races that were leaning Democrat now be classified as toss-up races.

01:12:40.000 This is all heading in that direction.

01:12:43.000 And it all started in the last 24 hours.

01:12:48.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
