00:13:53.580A group of highly qualified evolutionary virologists looked at the sequences there and the sequences in bats as they evolve.
00:14:06.640And the mutations that it took to get to the point where it is now is totally consistent with a jump of a species from an animal to a human.
00:14:21.640We just revealed on this program last week that there is no evidence that it ever jumped from an animal, from a bat to another animal, to a human, or from a bat to a human.
00:14:57.540The founder and president of Turning Point USA, the host of the Charlie Kirk Show, and a friend of the program who just got back from his honeymoon.
00:15:54.400So we have our Young Women's Leadership Summit, and we'll have about 2,000 young conservative women attending from all across the country.
00:16:03.520And we have some phenomenal speakers, many from The Blaze as well, which we're super thrilled about.
00:16:08.460And this is really to, and we've been doing this for five years, but this is really to train, equip, and empower these young conservative women about how to fight for freedom, fight for liberty, and then properly explain those words as well, which I think we need to continue to do.
00:16:26.840Fight for those things on high school and college campuses.
00:16:30.320We're happy to be doing in-person events as well.
00:16:33.120And then as a sidebar, Glenn, I'm actually going to be speaking at our friend Dave Barton's deal, and he's going to show me some fun stuff.
00:16:40.680So that's all I'm going to say about that.
00:16:41.920So I'm going to do that while I'm going to be a fun week next week.
00:17:03.040That's such a good question, Glenn, and I think you'll appreciate this and enjoy exploring this with me, which is when I first started Turning Point in 2012, there was a lot of libertarianism in the conservative movement.
00:17:16.200And there's a lot of things that I agree with libertarians on, firearms, freedom of speech, the lockdowns, for example.
00:17:24.240On this program, you and I talked about how the lockdowns were immoral and unconstitutional.
00:17:29.500But I think that the conservative movement, I think, on a couple issues went far too libertarian, especially on the issue of immigration and on the issue of corporate tyranny.
00:17:41.540And you've covered the tech issue really well, Glenn, but it seems as if with the tech issue, a lot of our leaders have been reluctant to act because they have hid behind abstractions and they have not really, I think, acted with prudence or practical wisdom.
00:17:58.040When they just look at what's in front of them, not the talking point or the slogan or the ideology, and instead just look at it as it is, say, huh, Google's a trillion-dollar company.
00:18:10.040They can turn off Glenn Beck, Charlie Kirk, and Steven Crowder in a moment's notice.
00:18:14.420And so that's resonating with a lot of younger conservatives.
00:18:18.880And I'm not going to say I regret some of that kind of energy that existed back in 2012, 2013.
00:18:27.260I don't regret reading Hayek or von Mises or Rothbard, but I also wish I would have read Kirk, Burke, and T.S. Eliot as well and understood that there is a place for tradition, an eternal transcendent moral order, a national cultural identity,
00:18:45.180and not just always, in my opinion, just saying that we must be the progressive conservatives and trying to always change things for change's sake.
00:18:57.440So here's where I'd like to explore with you, because the idea that we were one beyond the Constitution and the Bill of Rights really came from Woodrow Wilson and FDR.
00:19:17.120Not exactly conservatives, to say the least.
00:19:20.700They were the ones that gave us the national anthem.
00:19:22.900They were the ones that standardized the flag.
00:19:24.980They were the ones that said, we all have to really kind of be alike.
00:19:28.900And that began to take our differences apart.
00:19:32.040And I think, you know, we do have to have a common heritage and a common understanding of the truth of our history, both good and bad.
00:19:45.640But I don't like the idea of saying that we all have to agree on whatever.
00:19:52.040I don't have a problem with California doing what California is doing.
00:19:56.580I live in Texas, and I don't live in California for a reason.
00:20:00.320But if they fail, I don't want to pay for it.
00:21:47.380Yeah, and they've used a very nice lifestyle, a non—like, we don't have to be engaged to get involved in the current moment
00:21:58.000where you can enjoy your life, and meanwhile, the activists are working their way through the long march to the institutions.
00:22:04.380I completely agree with you on the Constitution, the Bill of Rights portion of it.
00:22:10.380I do believe, though, that because of mass immigration and critical race theory, which you've done a phenomenal job of covering,
00:22:18.060we are seeing, I think, an unprecedented cultural decay, which is then manifesting in these other sort of very troubling trends,
00:22:26.000whether it be statism, this bent towards authoritarianism, and then corporatism, which is the kind of just latest variation of authoritarianism now
00:22:36.940in the kind of the corporate landscape and realm.
00:22:39.620But especially on the issue, the two issues that I think that we must really focus on is the immigration issue,
00:22:47.180because we must have control over who's coming into our country and whether or not they share our values
00:22:53.540or even they're willing to share our values, because you're right, Glenn, one of the reasons why California feels like a different country from Texas
00:23:00.280is because uncontrolled mass immigration of people that very well might not have the same sort of willingness
00:23:06.920or worldview to embrace the Bill of Rights or Constitution or willing to do so over a long period of time.
00:23:12.980And we are now seeing that materialize in voting trends and cultural trends.
00:23:17.160You know, the one thing that I've been very wrong on my whole life has been my support for corporations.
00:23:27.880And it's not an anti-corporation place that I have come to.
00:24:23.540They use YouTube as their way of life.
00:24:25.760And the fact they can just haphazardly shut off someone's way of life because they don't like your political viewpoint should have been a warning sign for me.
00:24:34.400However, with that being said, these companies, especially, you know, Facebook, Apple, Amazon and Google, they're not capitalists.
00:24:44.300And this is something I think that we need to recognize and realize they're trying to they're trying to create a monopoly.
00:24:50.240And they're using conservatives love of the free market against us to try to have us not intervene against their monopolistic style behavior.
00:24:59.920Now, mind you, I think that at its ultimate, every business owner should try to create a monopoly, meaning they should try to win in the marketplace.
00:25:22.240They care about pandering to China far more than keeping up somebody's YouTube page that might be a conservative.
00:25:28.920And these corporations, I think, have there's this there's this tension point between rights and duties.
00:25:35.120And we don't talk a lot about duties because, as you say, it can have a bend towards totalitarian, totalitarianism like Woodrow Wilson and FDR.
00:25:44.820With that being said, I think a non coercive duty is that if you become worth 100 billion dollars in America, you should ethically have some sort of loyalty to the nation and not finance the Center for Technology and Civic Life like Mark Zuckerberg did for 400 million dollars to usurp our voting laws or to then use Google as a singular point of a Democrat super PAC to prevent Hunter Biden's story from being spread.
00:26:12.040So I share that with you, Glenn, and I think the entire conservative movement is ready for massive action.
00:26:18.480Yeah, now I'm going to take a break, and that's where I want to come on massive action, because I agree with that.
00:26:25.380However, I don't want statism telling people what they have to do once they pass a threshold.
00:26:33.320It comes from love of country, and there's always going to be bad people out there that will do bad things.
00:26:40.000And I don't know how to balance liberty because there is no real balance.
00:28:01.740Whether you want to admit it or not, we are facing tough times.
00:28:04.780Please take some of the pressure off of yourself right now and prepare for what is coming.
00:28:09.800Right now you have an opportunity to save $50 off of a full four-week supply of really good, calorie-rich meals that the whole family will love.
00:28:17.780My Patriot Supply makes it easy to stay prepared at all times.
00:28:20.820And everything ships fast and discreetly to your door.
00:28:24.260Everyone should have at least a four-week food supply on hand.
00:28:27.860And you can save $50 now on this supply.
00:30:40.040Um, well, I have a, I have a pretty long story, but I'll just start with why I started doing social media and putting videos out.
00:30:52.360Um, so I have brothers and one of them is in prison right now and one of them was murdered.
00:31:03.380And I started seeing things that are going on in our community and I wanted to know why, you know, I wanted to get to the, to the root of it.
00:31:11.140So I started to research, you know, the Democrat party and history of the Democrat party.
00:31:16.660And, you know, I've been in common soul and I've seen Larry Elder and, you know, all those guys.
00:31:22.260And, um, yeah, I think pretty much woke me up to what was going on, you know?
00:31:26.740And, um, yes, I learned the history and I'm like, man, I'm tired of seeing what's going on.
00:31:32.120I'm tired of seeing, um, my brother, my brother's actually in prison.
00:31:36.400I don't know how many years he's doing.
00:31:37.760I don't think he's got his sentence yet, but he's been back.
00:31:42.060I have another friend from 15 years right now.
00:31:44.440And I'm like, hang on, hang on, Corey, Corey, hold on just a, hold on just a second.
00:31:48.520You're the phone is getting so garbled.
