00:00:00.180 Today on the Matt Wall Show, the left is simultaneously celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk and also claiming that he was murdered by a right-winger, which is a lie.
00:00:08.000 There is now no question that this was leftist, LGBT extremist violence.
00:00:12.800 Not the first case, and it's not going to be the last, and we're going to talk about that today.
00:00:16.480 Also, in the wake of her husband's death, Erica Kirk delivers one of the most inspiring and beautiful speeches you'll ever hear, and I want to talk about that today.
00:00:24.280 Meanwhile, some Republicans are calling for unity, but is that really what we need right now?
00:00:29.040 Is it possible, even?
00:00:30.880 And as leftists celebrate Charlie's assassination, conservatives are giving them a dose of their own medicine by contacting their employers and getting them fired.
00:00:38.420 Does that make us cancel culture hypocrites?
00:00:40.820 Well, I don't really care if it does, honestly, but it doesn't, and I want to explain why.
00:00:44.960 We're going to talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.
00:00:48.300 A day after Charlie Kirk was assassinated while debating college students in Utah,
00:00:52.220 I said that it was important to gather as much information as possible before drawing any conclusions about culpability.
00:00:59.040 And before implementing the kind of crackdown on left-wing extremism in this country that for many years we've all suspected would be necessary.
00:01:06.540 Well, now, several days later, we have gathered those facts.
00:01:09.720 The assassination of Charlie Kirk was unequivocally an act of LGBT terrorism.
00:01:15.000 Now, more evidence will come out soon, and that's also what I've been told personally from sources who are familiar with the FBI's investigation.
00:01:22.160 But already, the evidence is overwhelming.
00:01:25.260 Charlie was murdered by a leftist who was in a relationship with a man who identifies as transgender, a man who identifies as a woman.
00:01:32.420 The shooter engraved his ammunition with messages that are commonly used by left-wing Antifa groups,
00:01:38.460 calling Charlie a fascist, as well as a reference to a fetish subculture.
00:01:42.920 Days before the murder, several trans-identifying individuals and people in their social groups posted messages on social media
00:01:49.680 indicating that they were aware that the assassination would soon take place.
00:01:53.960 One of those messages read,
00:01:55.380 Charlie Kirk is coming to my college tomorrow.
00:01:57.560 I really hope someone evaporates him literally.
00:01:59.900 Let's just say something big will happen tomorrow.
00:02:03.360 The account that posted that thread is now suspended from X.
00:02:06.320 Another post from five days before the shooting indicated that something big was coming soon.
00:02:11.180 Then after the shooting, the author wrote,
00:02:14.040 Well, that's that, and another chud bites the dust.
00:02:17.620 Here's another.
00:02:18.440 This one was written on September 3rd.
00:02:20.400 It begins, quote,
00:02:21.300 It'd be funny if someone like Charlie Kirk got shot on September 10th.
00:02:26.300 Now, the username of the author of this post, as Cassandra McDonald of Gateway Pundit has pointed out,
00:02:31.740 is Tally Hall Album.
00:02:33.900 And coincidentally enough, the man who shot Charlie Kirk, Tyler Robinson,
00:02:37.160 had a publicly visible playlist of songs by the band Tally Hall on Spotify.
00:02:43.340 Additionally, the shooter's trans-identifying boyfriend, McDonald reported,
00:02:47.220 was active on the Tally Hall subreddit.
00:02:50.520 That's just a sample of some publicly available posts
00:02:53.420 that appeared to predict Charlie's murder.
00:02:57.920 We can obviously assume, based on these posts,
00:03:00.540 that the actual number of people with advanced knowledge of the attack
00:03:03.600 was probably quite high.
00:03:06.880 Additionally, shortly after the assassination,
00:03:09.040 another post written by someone who was in the same friend network
00:03:12.260 as the trans-identifying man who was dating the shooter
00:03:14.560 read simply,
00:03:15.940 We effing did it.
00:03:18.120 And then a pro-trans organization in Utah called Armed Queers SLC
00:03:22.020 took down its Instagram page entirely.
00:03:25.640 According to the New York Post,
00:03:26.560 Armed Queers SLC has a, quote,
00:03:28.060 logo that features two high-powered rifle rounds
00:03:30.540 similar to the one that struck Kirk.
00:03:33.140 The group also, quote,
00:03:34.420 hosted a lecture on queer resistance
00:03:36.180 at the University of Utah in September 2023,
00:03:39.340 around 45 miles from Utah Valley University,
00:03:41.540 where the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder
00:03:43.640 and Trump ally lost his life.
00:03:47.060 Even people with direct knowledge of the shooter
00:03:49.100 continued to protect him after the assassination.
00:03:51.300 New York Times is reporting
00:03:52.240 that members of the shooter's Discord channel
00:03:54.900 were joking with him about the possibility
00:03:57.220 that he was the shooter
00:03:58.240 based on the photographs released by the FBI.
00:04:00.940 And yet none of the members of this Discord group
00:04:02.820 actually turned him in.
00:04:05.360 But, and this is all evidence
00:04:06.860 on top of a number of officials
00:04:10.760 telling us, including the governor,
00:04:12.680 that he was heavily indoctrinated
00:04:14.780 into left-wing extremism,
00:04:16.540 hearing these sources from the family,
00:04:18.520 from people who knew him.
00:04:20.220 So the evidence, again, is absolutely overwhelming.
00:04:24.900 But maybe the clearest possible sign
00:04:26.820 that Charlie was murdered
00:04:27.780 as part of a coordinated leftist campaign
00:04:29.760 to terrorize conservatives
00:04:30.840 is that over the past several days,
00:04:33.320 his comrades have tried to disown him.
00:04:37.240 Even as hundreds of thousands of leftists
00:04:39.240 openly gloat over Charlie's murder,
00:04:42.580 and this is everyone ranging from neurologists
00:04:45.820 to school teachers
00:04:46.640 to military service members
00:04:48.080 to entertainers
00:04:48.800 to the chief of police of Durham
00:04:50.580 to the entire population of Reddit and Blue Sky,
00:04:53.360 even as all that's happening,
00:04:56.020 these same leftists are pretending,
00:04:57.780 in defiance of all the evidence
00:04:59.080 and of basic common sense,
00:05:01.200 that the shooter was actually
00:05:02.540 a MAGA white supremacist.
00:05:04.720 They're pushing the fantasy
00:05:06.020 that Charlie Kirk was murdered
00:05:07.360 because he wasn't right-wing enough.
00:05:10.800 Now, they know that it's not true,
00:05:12.340 they know that no rational person
00:05:13.800 could possibly believe it,
00:05:14.940 but they're saying it anyway.
00:05:16.720 The official talking point of the left
00:05:18.380 is that Charlie was killed by the right.
00:05:20.180 This is a maneuver that,
00:05:22.720 for communist regimes,
00:05:23.900 has always been an old standby.
00:05:25.960 They don't actually care
00:05:26.960 about their foot soldiers,
00:05:28.080 even foot soldiers
00:05:28.760 who throw their lives away for the cause.
00:05:31.680 They certainly don't care about the truth.
00:05:34.140 All that matters to leftists
00:05:35.580 is their collective mission.
00:05:37.880 The shooter fulfilled part of the left's mission
00:05:40.100 by killing Charlie,
00:05:41.060 by murdering someone
00:05:41.940 who dared to engage them
00:05:43.140 in free and open debates
00:05:44.240 that they could not win.
00:05:46.460 And now the shooter
00:05:47.360 is fulfilling another mission.
00:05:48.440 He's a useful tool
00:05:50.520 to defame and malign the right.
00:05:53.360 Now, there are too many examples
00:05:54.700 on this front to list,
00:05:56.200 but here's a few.
00:05:57.780 We'll start with Reddit,
00:05:58.760 one of the many cesspools
00:06:00.280 that should immediately be investigated
00:06:01.780 by federal authorities
00:06:02.920 as a breeding ground
00:06:03.800 for domestic terrorism.
00:06:05.340 But here's a sample of the post.
00:06:07.260 Quote,
00:06:08.540 the Bella Chow thing
00:06:09.760 found on the ammo casings
00:06:11.260 is a Nick Fuentes thing.
00:06:13.560 He seems like an online
00:06:14.540 Nick Fuentes gruyper.
00:06:15.680 Yep, gruypers have been
00:06:18.200 against Charlie Kirk
00:06:19.240 for a long time.
00:06:21.040 Then when someone asks
00:06:22.040 what a gruyper is,
00:06:23.000 the response is,
00:06:23.840 quote,
00:06:23.940 alt-right white nationalist,
00:06:26.320 Christian nationalist followers
00:06:27.600 of Nick Fuentes.
00:06:29.940 It's impossible to overstate
00:06:31.080 how aggressively
00:06:31.880 this message
00:06:32.620 is being pushed
00:06:33.700 on Reddit and Blue Sky.
00:06:35.060 It's also all over Facebook.
00:06:36.280 It's all over the internet.
00:06:38.260 The media
00:06:38.980 is toying
00:06:40.360 with this message as well.
00:06:41.600 It's not an exaggeration
00:06:42.560 to say
00:06:42.980 that the majority
00:06:44.300 of leftists
00:06:44.920 probably believe in.
00:06:47.180 They're claiming
00:06:48.040 that a gay man
00:06:50.260 who was dating
00:06:51.160 a trans-identifying man
00:06:52.660 who openly told
00:06:54.540 his family and friends
00:06:55.520 that he hated Charlie Kirk,
00:06:57.240 who was steeped
00:06:58.320 in left-wing ideology
00:06:59.280 according to the governor
00:07:00.080 of Utah,
00:07:01.240 who wrote Antifa messages
00:07:02.720 on the bullet casings,
00:07:04.600 who accused Charlie
00:07:05.640 of being a fascist,
00:07:07.760 was actually,
00:07:08.500 in truth,
00:07:09.240 you know,
00:07:09.420 a big fan
00:07:10.020 of Nick Fuentes,
00:07:11.100 was a big,
00:07:11.900 big far-right,
00:07:13.720 right-wing guy.
00:07:16.220 To be clear,
00:07:17.140 Antifa terrorists
00:07:17.880 have been citing
00:07:18.500 the Bella Chow song
00:07:19.960 for a long time.
00:07:21.940 As Andy Ngo
00:07:22.700 has pointed out,
00:07:24.120 including in 2019
00:07:24.960 when an Antifa shooter
00:07:26.000 cited the song
00:07:27.580 in a manifesto
00:07:28.580 before attacking
00:07:29.180 an ICE facility.
00:07:31.280 So there is a record,
00:07:32.640 there is a precedent,
00:07:34.100 not just for this
00:07:34.960 Bella Chow thing
00:07:35.720 to be used
00:07:36.740 by the far left,
00:07:37.360 but for it to be used
00:07:38.740 by the far left
00:07:39.500 when they're carrying out
00:07:40.840 domestic terrorist attacks.
00:07:44.180 Additionally,
00:07:44.760 one of the ringleaders
00:07:45.420 of Antifa in Los Angeles
00:07:46.660 owns a company
00:07:47.560 called Bella Chow Cinema.
00:07:49.700 This is an old
00:07:50.560 World War II song
00:07:51.560 that's been repurposed
00:07:52.700 by Antifa today.
00:07:54.760 You know,
00:07:55.040 everyone who looks
00:07:55.960 into this
00:07:56.460 knows it,
00:07:57.340 it's very obvious,
00:07:59.100 but in the left-wing
00:08:00.940 fever swamps,
00:08:01.600 they're pretending otherwise.
00:08:03.740 Prominent outlets
00:08:04.460 like CNN
00:08:05.020 are doing their best
00:08:06.220 to further the same narrative.
00:08:08.540 Take a look
00:08:08.900 at this screenshot
00:08:09.800 of CNN's homepage
00:08:10.800 the other day.
00:08:11.600 There are nine stories
00:08:12.860 about Charlie's assassination.
00:08:15.080 None of them
00:08:15.500 discussed the shooter's motive
00:08:16.660 or his belief
00:08:17.460 in left-wing ideology
00:08:18.500 and his connection
00:08:19.100 to transgenderism.
00:08:20.320 None of them discussed
00:08:21.180 the gloating of leftists
00:08:22.360 or the messages
00:08:22.960 that predicted the attack.
00:08:24.040 Instead,
00:08:24.940 the stories are about
00:08:25.800 the job that
00:08:26.700 Kash Patel is doing
00:08:27.600 or how leftists
00:08:28.620 are getting fired
00:08:29.380 for celebrating Kirk's death
00:08:30.560 or how the shooter's father
00:08:32.180 turned him in.
00:08:34.120 Meanwhile,
00:08:34.560 all over social media,
00:08:35.420 major figures
00:08:36.180 in the American left
00:08:37.180 are openly lying.
00:08:39.980 Here's Harvard professor
00:08:41.120 Lawrence Tribe,
00:08:42.080 for example,
00:08:42.680 quote,
00:08:43.140 Kirk's apparent assassin
00:08:44.100 seems to have been
00:08:45.640 ultra MAGA
00:08:46.580 exploding the GOP MAGA
00:08:48.820 attempt to pin the blame
00:08:50.500 for this tragedy
00:08:51.260 on liberals.
00:08:53.180 This is the same line
00:08:54.200 that they used
00:08:54.680 after the first
00:08:55.300 Trump assassination attempt,
00:08:56.560 as you probably remember.
00:08:57.500 Democrats said
00:08:58.100 the shooting
00:08:58.440 was either staged
00:08:59.500 or that the shooter
00:09:00.940 was somehow
00:09:01.400 a Trump supporter,
00:09:02.160 which they still claim
00:09:03.000 to this day.
00:09:03.540 Only this time,
00:09:05.620 we're not just
00:09:06.080 hearing that claim
00:09:07.000 from a handful
00:09:07.540 of big names.
00:09:08.140 It's coming from everywhere.
00:09:10.020 Here's the chair
00:09:10.680 of Minnesota's DFL,
00:09:11.840 for example.
00:09:12.240 This is basically
00:09:12.760 the state Democrat party.
00:09:14.420 Quote,
00:09:15.500 the shooter didn't think
00:09:16.440 Kirk was right-wing enough.
00:09:17.980 The reference to Groyper
00:09:18.940 is linked to a rival
00:09:19.980 right-wing ideologue.
00:09:22.620 This is a declarative statement
00:09:24.100 from a top Democrat
00:09:25.120 in Minnesota
00:09:25.560 that has no basis
00:09:27.220 in reality.
00:09:28.960 He talks about
00:09:29.440 a reference to Groyper's
00:09:30.860 with no citation whatsoever.
00:09:32.300 It's completely made up.
00:09:34.400 Meanwhile,
00:09:35.020 the LA Times
00:09:35.560 apparently cited
00:09:36.160 an expert
00:09:36.800 who decided
00:09:37.500 that Charlie Kirk
00:09:38.600 was shot
00:09:39.320 in a white supremacist
00:09:40.420 gang hit.
00:09:41.840 And there's this post
00:09:43.040 from Jackie Sartoris,
00:09:45.080 the DA in Portland, Maine,
00:09:46.660 who was recently installed
00:09:48.320 with the help
00:09:48.820 of George Soros.
00:09:50.160 She wants you to know
00:09:51.340 that, quote,
00:09:52.480 there are now
00:09:52.880 increasing questions
00:09:53.640 about the actual shooter's
00:09:54.760 possible affinity
00:09:56.100 with the extreme far right.
00:09:58.040 This may have involved
00:09:58.900 a beef between
00:09:59.760 alt-right Nick Fuentes
00:10:00.960 and the victim.
00:10:02.320 That's a government
00:10:04.740 official, a prosecutor,
00:10:06.140 who's supposed to care
00:10:07.320 about things like
00:10:07.880 evidence and facts
00:10:08.960 and, well,
00:10:09.580 so much for that.
00:10:11.060 Over on X,
00:10:11.580 you'll find posts
00:10:12.220 with tens of millions
00:10:12.920 of views
00:10:13.360 and hundreds of thousands
00:10:14.180 of likes
00:10:14.640 with the exact same message.
00:10:15.680 Huge numbers of people
00:10:16.480 are spreading the claim
00:10:17.920 that the shooter
00:10:18.460 was a right-winger.
00:10:19.700 The totally false,
00:10:20.960 fabricated,
00:10:21.660 made-up,
00:10:22.140 no basis in reality claim.
00:10:23.640 Here's one example.
00:10:24.400 This one has 30 million views,
00:10:26.140 400,000 likes.
00:10:27.620 It says, quote,
00:10:29.700 so the killer of Charlie Kirk
00:10:31.280 is Tyler Robinson,
00:10:32.380 white boy,
00:10:32.980 right-wing,
00:10:33.560 Republican,
00:10:34.140 wealthy family,
00:10:34.820 born and raised in Utah.
00:10:36.280 This is a bad week for MAGA.
00:10:38.460 Here's another one.
00:10:39.040 This one has 10 million views
00:10:40.080 and 100,000 likes.
00:10:41.360 According to Utah officials
00:10:42.420 and police interviews
00:10:43.240 with his family,
00:10:44.020 Tyler Robinson hated
00:10:44.920 Charlie Kirk
00:10:45.360 because Kirk
00:10:46.400 wasn't conservative enough.
00:10:49.380 Robinson reportedly
00:10:49.960 admired Nick Fuentes.
00:10:51.740 GOPers now scrubbing
00:10:52.800 X posts about Dems
00:10:53.880 faster than DOJ
00:10:54.860 erases Trump name
00:10:56.140 in Epstein files.
00:10:58.020 Perhaps one of the worst examples
00:10:59.280 is Randy Weingarten,
00:11:00.640 the president
00:11:01.040 of the largest teachers
00:11:01.800 in the country.
00:11:03.260 She reposted a post
00:11:04.300 from someone named
00:11:05.240 Jeannie Ryder
00:11:06.180 and the post says,
00:11:08.120 the leftist students in Utah
00:11:09.180 who didn't want
00:11:10.000 Charlie Kirk to speak
00:11:10.940 did what leftists do.
00:11:12.000 They signed petitions,
00:11:13.000 staged a protest
00:11:13.780 and lined up
00:11:14.640 to challenge him.
00:11:15.640 The right-winger
00:11:16.300 who didn't want
00:11:16.940 Charlie Kirk to speak
00:11:17.780 did what right-wingers do
00:11:19.540 and shot him.
00:11:21.340 We are not the same.
00:11:23.340 Now, Randy reposted
00:11:24.320 that inverted reality
00:11:26.000 nonsense with the caption,
00:11:28.040 this seems important
00:11:29.040 to state.
00:11:30.800 Yes, the leader
00:11:31.820 of the largest
00:11:33.280 teachers union
00:11:35.100 in the country,
00:11:35.660 to her,
00:11:36.900 it's not only important
00:11:37.780 to state total
00:11:38.740 absolute nonsense
00:11:39.920 and lies
00:11:41.240 that completely
00:11:41.840 flip reality
00:11:42.620 on its head,
00:11:43.200 but it's also important
00:11:44.300 to brand all right-wingers
00:11:45.960 as violent killers.
00:11:48.180 Go on Reddit
00:11:49.020 or Blue Sky
00:11:49.600 and you'll find
00:11:50.100 hundreds of thousands
00:11:50.840 of people
00:11:51.300 who are liking
00:11:52.240 and upvoting
00:11:52.740 various posts like this.
00:11:54.340 If you know
00:11:55.020 any leftists,
00:11:55.700 there's a good chance
00:11:56.240 you're seeing
00:11:56.600 the same content
00:11:57.220 all over your social
00:11:57.940 media feeds as well.
00:11:59.480 None of it is remotely true.
00:12:00.780 There's no source
00:12:01.500 for any of it
00:12:02.160 because it's false.
00:12:04.800 Just to be totally
00:12:05.740 clear about this,
00:12:06.520 any suggestion
00:12:07.180 that Charlie was killed
00:12:08.000 by a right-winger
00:12:08.560 is a flat-out,
00:12:09.820 bald-faced lie.
00:12:10.980 There is no evidence
00:12:11.920 of that,
00:12:12.500 none at all.
00:12:14.340 All of the evidence
00:12:15.380 points to left-wing
00:12:16.620 LGBT extremists.
00:12:18.040 It's not close,
00:12:18.820 it's not ambiguous.
00:12:19.620 Gay guy,
00:12:22.600 trans boyfriend,
00:12:26.200 Antifa messages
00:12:26.920 on the bullets,
00:12:29.700 trans people
00:12:30.280 predicting the shooting
00:12:31.060 ahead of time.
00:12:31.520 I mean,
00:12:31.680 this is not,
00:12:32.340 this is not close.
00:12:34.340 This was not a Groyper,
00:12:35.600 this is not a Nick Fuentes
00:12:36.460 acolyte.
00:12:37.840 And by the way,
00:12:39.240 even if the killer
00:12:41.180 was a right-wing extremist,
00:12:43.700 which he definitely,
00:12:45.180 unequivocally was not,
00:12:46.900 the left would still own
00:12:48.580 Charlie's murder
00:12:49.780 because they've taken
00:12:51.060 ownership of it.
00:12:52.580 They spent the last
00:12:53.400 four days since his assassination
00:12:54.700 celebrating en masse.
00:12:56.440 Thousands upon thousands
00:12:57.440 of them have personally
00:12:59.020 endorsed the man
00:13:00.160 who slaughtered Charlie
00:13:01.140 so that even if the guy
00:13:03.760 were a right-wing Republican,
00:13:05.280 which again,
00:13:05.980 he is not,
00:13:07.820 he would still now
00:13:09.380 be one of theirs
00:13:10.700 by adoption.
00:13:12.740 They own this
00:13:14.040 because they have said
00:13:15.200 so themselves.
00:13:16.700 Thousands of them
00:13:17.860 have said that.
00:13:21.000 They've said,
00:13:21.800 we support this,
00:13:22.620 we like it,
00:13:23.340 do it more.
00:13:26.180 But again,
00:13:26.760 the killer is not right-wing.
00:13:29.540 Yeah,
00:13:29.720 there's no point
00:13:30.200 in fact-checking
00:13:31.060 like this really.
00:13:32.020 There's no point
00:13:32.420 in engaging
00:13:32.880 with any of the people
00:13:33.620 who are posting
00:13:34.240 this content
00:13:34.740 and trying to persuade them
00:13:35.940 that based on the evidence
00:13:37.020 they're wrong.
00:13:39.300 That's what Charlie
00:13:39.980 attempted to do,
00:13:40.880 what he did
00:13:41.560 with unmatched skill
00:13:42.800 and not to mention
00:13:46.460 patients
00:13:47.020 debating
00:13:48.460 and engaging
00:13:49.120 with these people.
00:13:51.420 The left has made
00:13:52.280 the decision
00:13:52.680 to respond
00:13:53.180 to that kind
00:13:53.620 of dialogue
00:13:53.980 with violence
00:13:54.580 and when I say
00:13:55.180 the left,
00:13:55.660 I'm not using shorthand,
00:13:56.760 I'm not painting
00:13:57.240 with too broad a brush.
00:13:59.460 I'm talking about
00:14:00.380 the left
00:14:00.900 and all of their
00:14:03.260 extremist groups
00:14:04.060 of which there are many.
00:14:07.740 I'm referring to Antifa,
00:14:09.040 I'm referring to sites
00:14:09.740 like Reddit
00:14:10.220 and Blue Sky.
00:14:10.780 Most of all,
00:14:12.120 I'm referring to
00:14:12.540 the Democrat Party.
00:14:14.020 All these organizations
00:14:15.020 are dominated by
00:14:16.220 and under the complete
00:14:16.940 control of
00:14:17.720 demons who either
00:14:19.320 participated in
00:14:20.240 the murder of Charlie,
00:14:22.380 participated in
00:14:23.340 other domestic
00:14:24.360 terrorist attacks,
00:14:25.640 politically motivated,
00:14:26.960 or who celebrate it.
00:14:29.400 They resemble
00:14:30.440 a domestic terror cell
00:14:31.640 because that's
00:14:32.200 exactly what they are
00:14:33.080 and they need
00:14:35.160 to be treated like it.
00:14:37.220 If you think
00:14:37.620 that's overstated,
00:14:38.760 here's Ilhan Omar,
00:14:39.760 the darling
00:14:41.040 of the Democrat Party,
00:14:42.580 one of them,
00:14:44.000 her response
00:14:44.820 to Kirk's assassination
00:14:45.560 was to repost a video
00:14:46.840 declaring that,
00:14:48.300 quote,
00:14:48.700 Kirk was a reprehensible
00:14:49.760 human being,
00:14:50.440 a stochastic terrorist,
00:14:51.420 with his last dying words
00:14:52.820 he was spewing
00:14:53.380 racist dog whistles.
00:14:55.300 Charlie Kirk
00:14:55.740 was Dr. Frankenstein
00:14:57.160 and his monster
00:14:57.980 shot him through the neck.
00:15:01.040 Then she gave
00:15:01.820 this interview
00:15:02.340 in which she suggested
00:15:03.200 that Kirk had it coming
00:15:04.340 because he wasn't
00:15:05.660 a fan of Juneteenth
00:15:06.760 and didn't believe
00:15:07.940 the myth
00:15:08.500 that George Floyd
00:15:10.140 was murdered.
00:15:10.800 Watch.
00:15:13.000 What I do know
00:15:14.400 for sure
00:15:15.120 is that,
00:15:16.900 you know,
00:15:18.040 Charlie was someone
00:15:19.180 who once said,
00:15:21.400 you know,
00:15:23.120 guns save lives
00:15:24.180 after a school shooting.
00:15:27.520 Charlie was someone
00:15:29.520 who was willing
00:15:30.620 to debate
00:15:32.100 and downplay
00:15:33.340 the death
00:15:33.920 of George Floyd
00:15:35.080 in the hands
00:15:36.140 of Minneapolis police.
00:15:37.380 I think he called him
00:15:37.820 a scumbag.
00:15:38.680 Right.
00:15:39.060 Have no regard.
00:15:40.800 Downplay slavery
00:15:41.880 and what black people
00:15:43.120 have gone through
00:15:43.880 in this country
00:15:45.140 by saying Juneteenth
00:15:47.020 should never exist.
00:15:48.140 And I think,
00:15:50.860 you know,
00:15:51.180 there are a lot
00:15:52.140 of people
00:15:52.560 who are out there
00:15:53.420 talking about him
00:15:54.680 just wanting
00:15:55.140 to have a civil debate.
00:15:57.740 A complete rewriting
00:15:58.560 of history.
00:16:00.640 Yeah.
00:16:00.940 There is nothing
00:16:01.720 more effed up,
00:16:03.660 you know,
00:16:04.060 like,
00:16:04.780 than to completely
00:16:07.140 pretend
00:16:07.760 that,
00:16:09.020 you know,
00:16:09.260 his words
00:16:09.840 and actions
00:16:10.860 have not been recorded
00:16:13.340 and in existence
00:16:15.680 for the last decade
00:16:18.080 or so.
00:16:20.880 Charlie Kirk's
00:16:21.660 public debates
00:16:22.260 have been recorded
00:16:22.960 for many years.
00:16:23.520 She's right about that.
00:16:24.440 And those debates
00:16:25.020 prove the exact opposite
00:16:26.040 of the point
00:16:26.560 she's trying to make.
00:16:28.140 That's why hundreds
00:16:28.920 of thousands of students,
00:16:30.020 including Democrats,
00:16:31.080 showed up to his events.
00:16:33.640 They knew that they
00:16:34.460 wouldn't get shouted down.
00:16:35.620 They wouldn't get
00:16:36.060 violently attacked
00:16:37.060 unless it was
00:16:39.420 by one of their own.
00:16:41.500 They wouldn't suffer
00:16:42.380 any consequences
00:16:43.180 whatsoever.
00:16:44.140 They'd be able
00:16:44.820 to engage
00:16:45.400 with a leading
00:16:45.980 conservative voice
00:16:46.840 at length
00:16:47.520 in a respectful forum.
00:16:50.340 Which,
00:16:50.880 by the way,
00:16:51.140 is something
00:16:51.500 that nobody
00:16:52.260 on the left
00:16:52.860 ever does.
00:16:54.180 Ever.
00:16:55.000 None of them
00:16:55.740 ever do this.
00:16:57.820 Who on the left
00:16:58.760 is going into a crowd
00:17:00.100 where there's going
00:17:00.640 to be conservatives
00:17:01.180 and saying,
00:17:01.740 you know what,
00:17:02.160 I'll talk to any
00:17:03.160 of you right now.
00:17:04.120 I'll debate you
00:17:04.740 on camera,
00:17:05.720 live.
00:17:07.180 Line up.
00:17:08.620 If you disagree
00:17:09.400 with me,
00:17:09.780 come to the front
00:17:10.260 of the line.
00:17:11.720 Who on the left
00:17:12.460 is doing that?
00:17:13.500 None of them.
00:17:14.320 Not a single one
00:17:15.020 in the country
00:17:15.440 is doing it.
00:17:18.800 That's something
00:17:19.400 that only conservatives
00:17:20.380 do.
00:17:20.800 Only.
00:17:22.400 And Charlie
00:17:22.840 was the best
00:17:23.320 at it.
00:17:27.620 And we know
00:17:28.380 all that.
00:17:28.800 The footage
00:17:29.100 was uploaded
00:17:29.700 in its entirety
00:17:30.440 online.
00:17:31.840 That's what Charlie
00:17:32.540 provided.
00:17:33.000 It's one of the main
00:17:33.520 reasons so many
00:17:34.200 young men voted
00:17:35.300 Republican in the last
00:17:36.160 election.
00:17:36.580 He allowed leftists
00:17:37.380 to speak.
00:17:38.100 And in doing so,
00:17:39.760 they revealed
00:17:40.560 that they were
00:17:40.900 unhinged,
00:17:41.480 incoherent,
00:17:42.200 dangerous radicals.
00:17:43.200 Which is why
00:17:44.280 they killed him.
00:17:46.340 But really,
00:17:47.040 none of this matters.
00:17:47.620 Even if Charlie
00:17:48.180 were the bully
00:17:49.100 that they're
00:17:49.660 painting him to be,
00:17:50.540 which he wasn't
00:17:51.320 at all,
00:17:52.880 that still,
00:17:53.680 obviously,
00:17:54.320 wouldn't be any
00:17:54.960 justification to
00:17:55.820 murder him.
00:17:56.380 And if Ilhan Omar
00:17:57.160 were a decent
00:17:57.940 American or an
00:17:58.860 American at all,
00:18:00.040 she'd understand that.
00:18:01.740 So would the rest
00:18:02.560 of the Democrat Party.
00:18:03.340 Instead,
00:18:03.680 within hours of
00:18:04.260 Charlie's assassination
00:18:05.180 in a terrorist attack
00:18:07.180 designed to silence
00:18:08.020 conservatives,
00:18:08.740 they're gloating
00:18:09.240 over his body
00:18:09.920 and encouraging
00:18:10.420 more violence
00:18:11.020 against Charlie's
00:18:11.700 wife,
00:18:12.020 against any
00:18:14.120 other conservative
00:18:14.780 who steps
00:18:15.240 out of line.
00:18:17.460 Only the left
00:18:18.220 operates like this.
00:18:19.200 The left is
00:18:19.440 responsible.
00:18:20.460 I mean,
00:18:20.720 really.
00:18:22.440 This is not
00:18:23.100 a both sides
00:18:23.700 thing.
00:18:24.700 Okay?
00:18:25.060 This is not
00:18:25.500 both sides.
00:18:26.280 It is not.
00:18:28.320 Political violence
00:18:29.180 is almost
00:18:30.140 exclusive to
00:18:31.460 the left.
00:18:33.000 Nearly
00:18:33.440 exclusive.
00:18:35.960 The left is
00:18:36.700 responsible for
00:18:37.360 torching federal
00:18:38.040 courthouses,
00:18:38.840 churches,
00:18:39.280 small businesses.
00:18:39.920 They're responsible
00:18:41.260 for BLM riots,
00:18:42.500 Antifa,
00:18:43.320 responsible for
00:18:44.000 the massacre
00:18:44.480 of Christian
00:18:44.980 children in
00:18:45.500 schools and
00:18:45.960 churches,
00:18:46.620 responsible for
00:18:47.240 multiple attempts
00:18:47.940 on the
00:18:48.180 president's life,
00:18:48.860 as well as the
00:18:49.300 violent attacks
00:18:49.840 on pro-life
00:18:50.360 pregnancy centers.
00:18:51.300 They're responsible
00:18:51.840 for vandalizing
00:18:52.780 Teslas,
00:18:53.400 torching Tesla
00:18:54.000 storefronts.
00:18:55.240 They're the ones
00:18:55.660 attacking ICE
00:18:56.380 agents.
00:18:56.780 They're the ones
00:18:57.100 attacking police.
00:18:58.020 The left is a
00:18:58.580 near monopoly on
00:18:59.980 politically motivated
00:19:00.840 violence in this
00:19:01.680 country.
00:19:02.460 It was a Tim
00:19:03.040 Walls appointee,
00:19:04.040 apparently suffering
00:19:04.620 from schizophrenia,
00:19:05.580 who murdered the
00:19:06.500 lawmaker in
00:19:07.040 Minnesota.
00:19:07.300 It was Trump
00:19:08.620 supporters and
00:19:09.240 Trump supporters
00:19:09.800 alone who
00:19:11.000 died on January
00:19:11.720 6th, which is
00:19:15.180 the one example
00:19:15.940 that they can
00:19:16.440 actually give of
00:19:17.460 right-wing political
00:19:18.600 violence, right-wing
00:19:19.780 riots.
00:19:22.280 That's the only
00:19:22.960 example they can
00:19:23.740 give, which they
00:19:25.000 obviously have
00:19:25.400 greatly exaggerated
00:19:26.260 for the last five
00:19:27.120 years, and the
00:19:27.900 only people who
00:19:28.300 died in that were
00:19:29.860 Trump supporters.
00:19:32.600 Political violence
00:19:33.520 has been going in
00:19:34.240 only one direction
00:19:35.200 for a very long
00:19:36.320 time now.
00:19:38.120 And that is by
00:19:38.980 design.
00:19:40.160 The left's
00:19:40.520 domestic terror
00:19:41.160 operation is well
00:19:42.060 established at this
00:19:42.840 point.
00:19:43.220 Billionaires like
00:19:43.820 George Soros fund
00:19:44.740 various NGOs and
00:19:45.780 political candidates
00:19:46.480 and media
00:19:46.860 personalities who
00:19:47.900 talk like Ilhan
00:19:48.680 Omar.
00:19:49.100 They declare that
00:19:49.740 conservatives are
00:19:50.580 Nazis, that all
00:19:51.420 conservatives are
00:19:52.000 fascists, who
00:19:52.740 demonize oppressed
00:19:53.980 people, or
00:19:54.700 whatever.
00:19:57.060 When you go
00:19:57.440 around, we kind
00:19:59.200 of laugh it off
00:19:59.940 because it's so
00:20:00.480 ridiculous.
00:20:01.720 It is ridiculous.
00:20:02.720 But when you go
00:20:03.380 around calling people
00:20:04.640 Nazis, it's
00:20:07.300 okay, that is a
00:20:08.940 direct call for
00:20:10.600 violence against
00:20:11.260 that person.
00:20:11.740 It just is.
00:20:12.860 At the very least,
00:20:13.940 it is a
00:20:14.320 justification
00:20:14.860 beforehand for
00:20:17.060 violence when you
00:20:17.700 call somebody a
00:20:18.240 Nazi.
00:20:18.460 And they tell
00:20:22.540 highly disturbed
00:20:23.240 individuals,
00:20:23.880 particularly people
00:20:24.420 who identify as
00:20:25.140 trans, that
00:20:25.840 they're being
00:20:26.220 genocided by
00:20:28.160 these fascists.
00:20:30.440 They'll open the
00:20:31.200 prisons and allow
00:20:31.900 the most deranged
00:20:32.620 members of society
00:20:33.460 to continue
00:20:34.080 tormenting normal
00:20:34.860 people, which is
00:20:36.140 something we don't
00:20:36.560 even add to.
00:20:37.120 When we're talking
00:20:37.640 about left-wing
00:20:38.160 motivated violence,
00:20:39.640 we're not even
00:20:40.060 adding to the list
00:20:41.040 the everyday street
00:20:42.240 violence that it
00:20:43.220 happens because
00:20:43.960 violent criminals
00:20:44.840 are released onto
00:20:46.000 the street by
00:20:46.860 politically motivated
00:20:48.020 left-wing DAs and
00:20:49.260 judges.
00:20:52.440 And the
00:20:53.080 politicians and
00:20:53.660 billionaires sit
00:20:54.240 back and watch as
00:20:55.060 their deranged
00:20:55.600 foot soldiers carry
00:20:56.440 out acts of
00:20:57.020 domestic terrorism.
00:20:57.860 And then, after
00:20:58.780 these attacks of
00:20:59.440 terrorism are carried
00:21:00.160 out, the
00:21:00.540 politicians gloat and
00:21:01.600 blame the other
00:21:02.160 side, showing clear
00:21:03.080 consciousness of guilt.
00:21:05.820 Among other
00:21:06.500 things, this is a
00:21:08.420 criminal enterprise.
00:21:09.420 It's maybe the
00:21:10.000 single most dangerous
00:21:10.820 criminal enterprise to
00:21:11.720 ever exist in this
00:21:12.380 country because it
00:21:13.380 poses a direct threat
00:21:14.460 to our most important
00:21:15.400 civil liberty, which is
00:21:16.240 the right to free
00:21:16.820 expression.
00:21:18.900 And it needs to be
00:21:19.860 dismantled.
00:21:22.480 And I'll tell you
00:21:23.220 what I mean by
00:21:23.700 dismantled.
00:21:24.400 Billionaires like
00:21:25.040 George Soros can be
00:21:26.060 indicted on RICO
00:21:26.900 charges, as Donald
00:21:28.360 Trump himself suggested
00:21:29.320 the other day.
00:21:32.220 Criminal aliens like
00:21:33.760 Ilhan Omar can be
00:21:34.760 denaturalized and
00:21:35.700 deported immediately for
00:21:36.800 lying on their
00:21:37.780 applications for
00:21:38.640 citizenship when they
00:21:41.060 pledge loyalty to
00:21:42.000 America and where
00:21:44.620 they said in her case
00:21:45.320 they weren't married
00:21:45.880 to their brother.
00:21:48.360 The entire industry
00:21:49.500 of transgenderism can
00:21:50.600 be demolished overnight
00:21:51.600 with a national
00:21:52.320 federal ban on any
00:21:53.460 kind, any kind of
00:21:54.880 so-called gender
00:21:55.600 affirming care for
00:21:56.660 anyone of any age.
00:21:59.260 The so-called doctors
00:22:00.620 who would mutilate and
00:22:01.520 sterilize patients in
00:22:02.520 service of this
00:22:03.120 ideology can be sent to
00:22:04.480 federal prison.
00:22:05.340 All of these steps are
00:22:06.080 necessary and can
00:22:07.940 happen.
00:22:09.540 After Charlie's
00:22:10.400 assassination and the
00:22:11.400 facts that have been
00:22:12.600 gathered in the
00:22:13.140 aftermath, there's no
00:22:13.760 doubt about it.
00:22:15.320 Terrorism against
00:22:16.340 conservatives is only
00:22:17.420 going to intensify us
00:22:18.420 from here.
00:22:19.720 A year ago at the
00:22:20.800 University of Minnesota
00:22:21.600 Duluth, the president
00:22:22.620 of the Young Democratic
00:22:23.700 Socialists of America
00:22:24.540 threatened to shoot up
00:22:25.620 the local Turning Point
00:22:27.100 USA chapter, forcing a
00:22:29.280 Turning Point representative
00:22:30.080 to flee the campus.
00:22:32.100 Quote, I'd line all you
00:22:33.160 mother effers up against
00:22:34.240 the wall and shoot you,
00:22:35.500 the socialists said.
00:22:37.020 Nothing was done.
00:22:37.880 The DSA chapter wasn't
00:22:39.000 dismantled.
00:22:40.460 That's normally how these
00:22:41.520 things go.
00:22:41.960 The left terrorizes, the
00:22:43.000 right doesn't respond, and
00:22:44.300 in turn, the terrorism
00:22:45.240 intensifies.
00:22:48.240 This must end.
00:22:49.240 It is now abundantly
00:22:50.360 clear that America isn't
00:22:51.940 divided into two political
00:22:53.040 parties.
00:22:53.440 We're divided into one
00:22:54.240 political party and one
00:22:55.840 cartel that aids and abets
00:22:57.660 domestic terrorism.
00:22:59.700 They are deliberately
00:23:00.580 provoking some of the
00:23:01.620 most deranged and hopeless
00:23:03.120 members of society, people
00:23:04.640 who are already in a state
00:23:05.900 of deep-seated psychosis.
00:23:08.420 And now that those
00:23:10.240 individuals are realizing
00:23:11.300 that they're losing, that
00:23:15.060 they really can't transform
00:23:16.320 into members of the
00:23:17.140 opposite sex, that they're
00:23:19.520 in the losing side of
00:23:20.400 everything, they're doing
00:23:21.100 exactly what the left wants
00:23:22.360 them to do.
00:23:24.020 The LGBT terror cells have
00:23:25.820 been activated, and they're
00:23:26.680 effective terror cells because
00:23:29.060 trans ideology is a death
00:23:31.120 cult.
00:23:31.800 The largest, most well-funded,
00:23:33.780 most deranged death cult this
00:23:35.320 country has ever seen.
00:23:36.140 And we shouldn't be
00:23:39.380 surprised by this.
00:23:40.160 You know, two weeks ago, I
00:23:42.820 said on X and on this show
00:23:45.000 that trans extremists are
00:23:47.540 losing badly, they're
00:23:48.780 desperate, and that makes
00:23:51.060 them more dangerous than
00:23:52.580 they've ever been.
00:23:54.480 And I said it would get
00:23:55.620 worse.
00:23:57.080 Two weeks later, Charlie
00:23:58.480 Kirk was shot and killed by
00:23:59.800 an LGBT militant with a
00:24:01.060 trans boyfriend.
00:24:03.740 So I say again now, this
00:24:05.500 will get worse.
00:24:07.380 We need to take this
00:24:08.740 threat seriously.
00:24:11.760 That doesn't mean we need
00:24:12.840 to deliver speeches about
00:24:13.960 unity or sing kumbaya and
00:24:15.700 tell everyone to come
00:24:16.360 together.
00:24:16.720 It means we need to
00:24:18.120 utterly destroy every
00:24:20.560 left-wing terror cell like
00:24:22.600 the one that killed
00:24:23.320 Charlie.
00:24:25.040 And it also means that we
00:24:26.400 need to destroy the
00:24:27.280 criminal institutions that
00:24:28.640 are enabling their
00:24:29.660 insanity rather than
00:24:30.900 treating it.
00:24:32.420 And then we have to
00:24:35.720 move up the chain of
00:24:36.640 leftist terror to the
00:24:37.780 non-profits and the
00:24:38.580 billionaires.
00:24:40.440 The more they gloat over
00:24:41.700 Charlie's dead body and
00:24:42.820 the more they threaten to
00:24:44.780 murder more conservatives,
00:24:45.840 the harder we have to
00:24:46.600 push.
00:24:48.020 We cannot stop until
00:24:49.300 conservatives are free to
00:24:50.560 exercise their First
00:24:51.580 Amendment rights in this
00:24:52.340 country without fear.
00:24:53.840 And until that happens, we
00:24:55.920 don't have a free society.
00:24:58.080 We don't have many rights
00:25:00.000 at all to any meaningful
00:25:01.320 degree.
00:25:03.580 And in that environment, we
00:25:04.760 don't owe our enemies any
00:25:05.860 kind of restraint or
00:25:07.440 mercy.
00:25:10.020 They must be crushed if
00:25:12.340 civil liberties are going to
00:25:13.240 mean anything in America.
00:25:17.360 At the moment, all the
00:25:18.520 indications I have are that
00:25:19.660 the Trump administration
00:25:20.360 understands all this, that
00:25:23.440 they're acting legally,
00:25:25.920 non-violently, which is how
00:25:28.860 we must act.
00:25:32.100 Now they need to do
00:25:32.960 something the federal
00:25:33.620 government never did under
00:25:34.740 the previous administration,
00:25:35.960 which is defend the civil
00:25:38.180 liberties of American
00:25:39.020 citizens and disarm and
00:25:40.460 dismantle every domestic
00:25:41.920 terrorist organization and
00:25:43.100 militant LGBT group posing
00:25:45.080 as a legitimate political
00:25:46.240 institution.
00:25:47.500 That's a very, very long
00:25:48.900 list to get through.
00:25:50.860 But with ruthlessness and
00:25:52.280 without apology, now is the
00:25:54.900 time to start.
00:25:55.440 Now let's get to our five
00:25:57.880 headlines.
00:26:04.180 All right, well, Charlie's
00:26:05.360 wife, Erica, delivered some
00:26:07.420 remarks on Friday night.
00:26:08.960 It was, I mean, I can say
00:26:10.240 without exaggeration, one of
00:26:11.580 the best speeches I've ever
00:26:14.040 heard anyone give, ever, in
00:26:16.080 my life.
00:26:17.220 When you consider the
00:26:18.240 circumstances that her
00:26:19.200 husband was just killed only
00:26:20.700 two days earlier, her
00:26:22.740 performance was even more
00:26:23.600 impressive.
00:26:25.120 But even just judged on its
00:26:26.400 own merits in a vacuum, I
00:26:27.760 mean, this was a truly great
00:26:29.400 speech.
00:26:30.860 It truly was.
00:26:32.860 Moving, beautiful, inspiring.
00:26:36.180 I thought it was incredible.
00:26:38.180 Probably my favorite moment
00:26:39.880 from the speech was this.
00:26:42.280 We'll play it now.
00:26:42.740 Watch.
00:26:42.960 Evildoers, responsible for my
00:26:47.440 husband's assassination, have no
00:26:51.040 idea what they have done.
00:26:55.480 They killed Charlie because he
00:26:57.380 preached a message of
00:26:59.180 patriotism, faith, and of God's
00:27:03.420 merciful love.
00:27:04.440 They should all know this.
00:27:08.880 If you thought that my
00:27:11.480 husband's mission was powerful
00:27:14.240 before, you have no idea.
00:27:19.440 You have no idea what you just
00:27:21.300 have unleashed across this entire
00:27:23.180 country.
00:27:25.580 In this world, you have no idea.
00:27:29.460 You have no idea the fire that you
00:27:31.700 have ignited within this wife.
00:27:37.000 The cries of this widow will echo
00:27:39.800 around the world like a battle cry.
00:27:48.040 To everyone listening tonight
00:27:49.780 across America, the movement my
00:27:51.680 husband built will not die.
00:27:54.500 It won't.
00:27:55.900 I refuse to let that happen.
00:27:58.560 It will not die.
00:28:01.700 All of us will refuse to let that
00:28:05.340 happen.
00:28:06.040 No one will ever forget my
00:28:08.480 husband's name and I will make
00:28:09.880 sure of it.
00:28:12.840 It will become stronger,
00:28:16.860 bolder, louder, and greater than
00:28:19.100 ever.
00:28:20.800 My husband's mission will not end,
00:28:23.020 not even for a moment.
00:28:27.000 And one of Charlie's greatest
00:28:28.640 talents was his ability, this
00:28:31.180 phenomenal ability to choose
00:28:33.020 great people to follow him.
00:28:34.820 What do you see in that clip?
00:28:36.180 I mean, what do you, or what do
00:28:37.960 you feel watching it?
00:28:41.180 We feel her resolve, her courage,
00:28:43.840 her determination.
00:28:45.840 We also feel her anger.
00:28:48.480 And the anger is important.
00:28:53.920 And also rare in these situations.
00:28:56.900 You know, it doesn't seem like it
00:28:59.640 would be rare, but, but it has
00:29:02.560 become sort of customary for the
00:29:04.680 family members after an atrocity
00:29:07.180 like this to go in front of cameras
00:29:09.840 and, and pretend they aren't angry
00:29:11.280 and, and just skip right to, oh, I
00:29:16.220 forgive, I forgive everybody and all
00:29:19.500 of this.
00:29:19.880 And, and we never see, or rarely do
00:29:24.940 we see the, the righteous anger that
00:29:29.760 they must feel.
00:29:33.180 And I think that Erica gives us a
00:29:38.340 glimpse into that, has the, has the
00:29:41.540 courage to allow us to, to see that.
00:29:44.340 And I, and I, and I really deeply
00:29:46.280 appreciate it.
00:29:46.880 I, I appreciate it because it's
00:29:48.220 honest for one thing.
00:29:49.900 Of course, she's angry.
00:29:52.120 I mean, she should be angry.
00:29:53.560 That, that, that anger comes from
00:29:55.180 her love for her husband, who she
00:29:58.040 lost and, and, and her love for her
00:30:00.060 children who lost their father.
00:30:02.880 It is an anger overflowing with love.
00:30:06.620 It is a loving anger.
00:30:08.720 It is a, is an anger rooted in love.
00:30:11.760 Yes, that is possible.
00:30:12.960 A lot of people have been, in
00:30:16.320 particular, Christians in this
00:30:17.320 country have been, uh, neutered, have
00:30:21.280 been, uh, uh, uh, you know, spiritually
00:30:23.800 castrated by going to some of these
00:30:27.160 milquetoast liberal churches for
00:30:29.660 decades.
00:30:32.180 But they would never talk about
00:30:33.440 righteous anger.
00:30:34.740 But they make it sound like, wait,
00:30:35.920 you should never be angry ever.
00:30:37.700 Everyone should just be smiling and
00:30:39.160 be happy all the time.
00:30:40.100 The idea that there could be a
00:30:43.300 loving anger, that you could be
00:30:44.720 filled with rage, that it, that is
00:30:48.060 actually rooted in love.
00:30:49.980 I mean, that idea is shocking to a
00:30:51.800 lot of Christians these days.
00:30:52.680 It would have been shocking to
00:30:53.520 Christians historically, traditionally,
00:30:55.260 but it is these days.
00:30:59.220 Um, so this is honest and it's good.
00:31:03.580 And it's an anger that comes from her
00:31:05.400 desire for justice.
00:31:06.280 She wants justice for her husband.
00:31:07.940 She wants to fight back against the
00:31:10.400 evil that stole her husband from her.
00:31:13.740 She calls them evildoers.
00:31:16.480 Not, you know, people who are
00:31:17.940 misguided.
00:31:19.440 Not, not people who are victims in
00:31:21.100 their own right.
00:31:23.300 Not people that we should be, you
00:31:24.820 should be understanding.
00:31:25.600 No, evildoers.
00:31:28.280 The doers of evil.
00:31:29.700 And she is 100% right.
00:31:31.620 And again, this kind of thing, this
00:31:35.180 kind of response from a grieving
00:31:36.580 loved one is very rare in our
00:31:38.480 society, at least publicly.
00:31:40.920 It shouldn't be because it's good.
00:31:43.740 It's honest.
00:31:45.720 And it's what this country needs.
00:31:49.460 Now, of course, you know, when I
00:31:52.840 watched the speech, I, one of my
00:31:54.740 first thoughts was, this is exactly
00:31:56.940 what we need.
00:31:58.700 This is exactly what the country
00:31:59.720 needs.
00:32:00.680 And I hesitate to say that because,
00:32:02.480 you know, Erica can say whatever
00:32:05.320 she wants to say.
00:32:07.340 She has that right.
00:32:08.540 She's the grieving widow.
00:32:09.600 She can respond in any way she wants
00:32:10.960 to respond.
00:32:11.560 It's not, she's not under any
00:32:12.720 obligation to give the kind of
00:32:14.260 statement the country needs.
00:32:15.840 Right.
00:32:16.220 It's not about what we need to hear
00:32:17.680 from her.
00:32:18.900 At all.
00:32:20.740 But she did anyway.
00:32:22.080 You know, and I'm grateful for
00:32:23.340 that.
00:32:23.560 What, what we don't need is what
00:32:27.480 we're getting from, you know, so
00:32:30.680 many Republicans, not all of them,
00:32:33.120 but a lot of them, which is this
00:32:36.080 kind of lame, generic nonsense about,
00:32:38.980 you know, unity coming together.
00:32:45.540 Erica did have a lot of inspiring
00:32:46.920 and hopeful things to say in her
00:32:48.200 address.
00:32:48.620 I found it to be incredibly
00:32:50.900 inspiring and there was, amid all
00:32:54.360 the grief and sadness, there was a
00:32:55.760 deep hope in it.
00:32:57.140 But, but there was, you know, what
00:33:02.820 you didn't get was this kind of
00:33:05.000 generic, impotent, weak sloganeering
00:33:07.880 that we're getting from Republicans
00:33:09.680 about unity.
00:33:12.060 As if we could just put all, put
00:33:13.740 aside our differences and all come
00:33:15.840 together.
00:33:18.620 But we can't.
00:33:20.620 And this is something that
00:33:21.280 actually I've been saying for a
00:33:22.400 long time.
00:33:23.240 This is, this is not a change in
00:33:24.800 tune now.
00:33:27.400 For me, this is a, and if you've
00:33:29.200 been following me for a while, you
00:33:30.460 know that I've made this point
00:33:31.440 about unity.
00:33:34.420 You know, unity requires you to
00:33:35.920 unite around something.
00:33:40.240 Going up to a group of people
00:33:41.540 without context and you don't know
00:33:44.560 them and saying, hey, everybody,
00:33:45.720 let's unite.
00:33:46.400 That, that doesn't accomplish
00:33:49.920 anything.
00:33:50.400 They don't know what the hell
00:33:51.020 you're talking about.
00:33:52.240 Their first question is to me,
00:33:53.460 unite to do what?
00:33:54.880 What do you mean unite?
00:33:55.960 Well, I'm not just going to, I'm
00:33:57.440 not just going to unite with you
00:33:58.920 without knowing why or what we're
00:34:01.420 doing or, or anything.
00:34:03.500 What do you mean unite?
00:34:06.840 Like this idea that unity is just,
00:34:08.680 it's, it's objectively always good,
00:34:10.780 no matter what.
00:34:11.560 Oh, you can have unity.
00:34:16.100 People can be united while they're
00:34:17.160 jumping off a cliff.
00:34:21.700 There was a lot of unity, uh, uh,
00:34:23.620 among people that were drinking the
00:34:24.780 Kool-Aid in Jonestown, right?
00:34:26.400 There was unity there.
00:34:27.280 That's not a good unity because the
00:34:30.460 question with unity is always for what
00:34:33.180 and around what we can't unite with
00:34:39.180 people who reject truth itself, who
00:34:41.780 hate civilization, who hate the
00:34:43.380 family, who hate children, who hate
00:34:46.000 life, who want to kill us.
00:34:51.360 Even if I wanted to unite, I can't
00:34:53.020 unite around that.
00:34:56.040 Uniting around what?
00:34:58.380 Around what?
00:35:02.340 Unity must come around something and
00:35:04.940 through something and for something.
00:35:07.100 Unity has a focal point.
00:35:10.280 It has a purpose.
00:35:13.600 We can unite in truth.
00:35:15.860 We can unite in justice.
00:35:17.660 We can unite in righteousness.
00:35:20.220 We can unite in Christ.
00:35:24.080 Yes, we should unite in that sense,
00:35:26.660 in that way, for that purpose, in that
00:35:30.660 context, but that requires the
00:35:32.540 evildoers to drop their swords and
00:35:34.220 repent.
00:35:34.560 You know, when you're out in the
00:35:39.060 darkness,
00:35:40.180 if you're in the darkness and some
00:35:44.160 people are in the light,
00:35:45.780 we can't just have unity if it requires
00:35:50.540 that the people in the light move into
00:35:52.200 the dark or that we meet in the middle
00:35:55.040 and let's go to somewhere it's a
00:35:56.200 little bit hazier.
00:35:59.120 Now, there could be unity, but you need
00:36:00.780 to come out of the darkness and come
00:36:02.160 into the light.
00:36:02.620 You need to leave the darkness.
00:36:04.100 I can go and I could try to bring you
00:36:05.980 with me.
00:36:06.540 I could try to drag you with me.
00:36:09.760 But one way or another, you need to be
00:36:11.160 in the light.
00:36:11.600 We cannot unite in the darkness.
00:36:15.460 We cannot.
00:36:16.220 We will not.
00:36:20.620 And right now, you have a lot of people
00:36:21.820 on the left who are just living in
00:36:25.400 total darkness, absolute, total,
00:36:27.940 spiritual darkness.
00:36:30.160 And there cannot be any unity in that.
00:36:35.400 And we also don't need, as I referenced
00:36:37.260 in the opening, we don't need to hear
00:36:38.240 the lie that this is a both sides
00:36:40.080 problem.
00:36:42.540 Again, we're getting this from Republican
00:36:44.100 politicians.
00:36:44.740 We've heard this kind of pablum from
00:36:45.900 dozens of them.
00:36:47.180 The worst example is probably Senator
00:36:48.600 James Lankford on CNN.
00:36:51.320 Watch this.
00:36:52.360 Well, I would say if there's someone
00:36:54.020 preparing to be able to take out an
00:36:56.000 aggressive act against someone or to be
00:36:57.720 able to violate the law, that is the role
00:36:59.580 of law enforcement to be able to protect
00:37:01.220 Americans.
00:37:02.360 We need to be careful now.
00:37:03.540 We talk about this, whether it is talking
00:37:05.140 about white nationalists and preparing to be
00:37:07.580 able to attack and to be able to carry an
00:37:08.780 attack, or to somebody like a Timothy McVeigh
00:37:11.200 that hated the government intensely and in my
00:37:13.380 state 30 years ago murdered 168 people in
00:37:16.760 Oklahoma City, or whether it is a leftist
00:37:19.300 group that is interested in actually attacking
00:37:21.940 a pro-life center that we saw several years
00:37:26.000 ago, or whether it's carrying out some other
00:37:28.200 act of terrorism or trying to be able to
00:37:31.160 intimidate people, we should have equal
00:37:33.220 application of the law to saying if you're
00:37:35.720 choosing to be able to carry out an
00:37:38.060 aggressive, violent act, that should be
00:37:41.060 something that we actually try to interdict
00:37:42.780 anytime that we possibly can.
00:37:44.140 Again, thinking something, talking about
00:37:46.400 something is very different than carrying
00:37:48.280 out that action with freedom of speech, but
00:37:50.540 you do not have the freedom to be able to
00:37:52.420 plan, prepare, and carry out an attack
00:37:54.420 against another American, no matter what
00:37:56.360 your ideology.
00:37:57.900 It's both sides, he says.
00:37:59.980 Think of the white nationalists.
00:38:02.200 Except it isn't both sides.
00:38:04.400 It isn't, and James Langford knows it.
00:38:07.320 All the Republicans saying this crap know it.
00:38:09.460 They all know it.
00:38:09.980 Political violence is a left-wing
00:38:11.180 problem.
00:38:11.720 Violence is a left-wing tool, nearly
00:38:14.380 exclusively, you know, which is why after
00:38:22.360 Charlie was killed for the last several
00:38:25.020 days, there have been vigils, there have
00:38:26.380 been memorials, there have been all kinds
00:38:29.340 of events, people, none of them have turned
00:38:32.120 violent, not a single one, not even close to
00:38:35.080 violence.
00:38:36.320 If there was any violence at any of them, it
00:38:37.880 was the violence at the left-wing protesters who
00:38:39.420 showed up because these are the kinds of people
00:38:41.260 who protest candlelight vigils, but it's the
00:38:45.720 violence that they start.
00:38:49.040 You notice that?
00:38:51.320 Charlie Kirk was assassinated in front of our
00:38:54.260 eyes.
00:38:56.440 Many of us have seen this man bleed to death in
00:38:59.180 front of our eyes, and yet no one boarded up a
00:39:01.700 single window.
00:39:05.600 Does anyone believe that it would be the same
00:39:07.360 going the other way?
00:39:11.260 I mean, if it was somebody on the left of
00:39:14.400 Charlie's, you know, of Charlie's influence and
00:39:17.560 status for them, which granted, you know, when
00:39:22.860 it comes to like their commentators and so on,
00:39:26.060 there isn't anyone like Charlie Kirk for them,
00:39:29.780 not anything close.
00:39:30.920 I saw somebody on, uh, some leftists on, on X
00:39:35.360 said that, um, it was responding to this idea
00:39:39.620 that, well, if they have it on the left, you
00:39:40.940 have to board up the windows.
00:39:41.980 And they said, oh, come on, do you really
00:39:43.260 believe that if Hassan Piker was killed, that
00:39:46.460 there would be riots in the street?
00:39:49.680 And the answer is, uh, probably still, yeah,
00:39:53.360 maybe, but then also maybe not because no one
00:39:56.600 knows who the hell he is and he doesn't mean
00:39:58.440 anything. He has no, no influence, like these
00:40:01.140 are people, zero influence, um, uh, on the
00:40:04.740 culture in the mainstream, although he may
00:40:06.920 still have, he certainly does have influence,
00:40:08.700 uh, in the, in the sort of deranged, uh, fever
00:40:12.720 swamps, the radicalizing deranged fever
00:40:15.480 swamps. So he does have influence there, but on,
00:40:18.380 in the mainstream, none. Uh, and, uh, this is
00:40:21.380 just someone who just doesn't, doesn't matter
00:40:23.840 at all. Um, so that's not the comparison. The
00:40:27.540 comparison is more like, you know, if, if, if, if
00:40:32.940 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was assassinated,
00:40:35.880 something like that. Now, if that were to
00:40:39.080 happen, does anyone doubt that there would be
00:40:42.620 mass rioting in almost every major city in
00:40:45.000 America? Does anyone doubt that? If that were
00:40:48.100 to happen, God forbid, uh, the very first thing
00:40:52.300 that every, every business owner would do at
00:40:53.720 every major American city, start boarding up
00:40:55.280 their windows and they would probably wouldn't
00:40:57.160 get them boarding up soon enough before the
00:40:58.680 rioting started. And we all know it. And
00:41:03.280 you know, we've been through the list, BLM,
00:41:04.740 Antifa, church shootings, Tesla, pro-life
00:41:06.800 centers on fire, political assassinations, on
00:41:08.700 and on and on. It's not both sides. You know, I
00:41:11.020 used to see it differently. If you had asked
00:41:13.480 me eight, nine, 10 years ago, I probably
00:41:17.280 would have said that extremists on both sides
00:41:19.820 are the problem and they're equally bad. If
00:41:25.100 you can imagine me saying something like
00:41:26.280 that now, I know it's hard, but I did a long
00:41:28.880 time ago, years ago. I don't know how any
00:41:33.920 conservative could possibly still hold that
00:41:35.940 view after everything we've seen, not just
00:41:38.240 this past week, although that has been
00:41:41.380 revelatory, but everything we've experienced,
00:41:43.680 especially since 2020 in this, in this
00:41:45.240 decade alone. No, extremists on the left are
00:41:49.480 way worse. Way, way worse. More violent, more
00:41:55.280 deranged, more wrong, obviously, more
00:42:00.240 dangerous. There's simply no question about
00:42:02.860 it. So it's not a both sides thing. I don't
00:42:05.360 want to hear about both sides. I don't want
00:42:09.140 to hear about it. It's not true.
00:42:11.800 Now, I can tell you where there should be
00:42:16.100 unity. There should be unity on the right
00:42:19.900 among conservatives. And this is a message
00:42:23.100 that I've preached a few times in the last
00:42:26.780 few days on X, that as conservatives, we
00:42:30.800 need to put the petty squabbles and the
00:42:32.580 infighting and all that crap to the side. We
00:42:34.580 can get back to that later. And I'm sure we
00:42:38.100 will. You know, we can resume our family
00:42:39.980 feuds sometime down the line. But for
00:42:42.300 now, we don't have time for it.
00:42:47.140 We can't bother with it. We're dealing
00:42:48.620 with a real existential threat. We're
00:42:50.300 dealing with enemies of civilization.
00:42:54.640 So we got, we got to put all that stuff
00:42:56.080 to the side. That's where there should be
00:42:58.120 unity.
00:43:02.320 Because one thing I know for sure is
00:43:04.040 that
00:43:04.360 if I were to walk outside of this building
00:43:08.520 right now and get shot and killed, there
00:43:12.000 are a lot of people, a lot of people on
00:43:13.260 the right, a lot of conservatives who
00:43:14.340 don't like me, who've been very critical
00:43:15.680 of me over the years. What I know for
00:43:19.500 sure, for sure, is that not a single one
00:43:22.900 of them would be celebrating if I were to
00:43:25.140 die 20 minutes from now. Not a single one.
00:43:29.120 No, they would mourn my loss and they
00:43:32.780 wouldn't mourn it sincerely.
00:43:37.100 And yet I also have no doubt, no doubt
00:43:39.620 that on the left, it would be
00:43:43.880 unanimous, unanimous that this was a good
00:43:49.580 turn of events. It will be unanimous
00:43:51.680 cause for celebration. I know that for
00:43:55.160 sure. They would spit on my grave, they
00:43:58.580 would laugh at my grieving wife and my
00:44:03.660 six children who now have to grow up
00:44:06.020 without a father. They would feel no
00:44:08.180 sadness for them at all. None. And so
00:44:13.000 pretty easy for me to find the friend
00:44:17.060 enemy distinction here. Okay. Pretty easy.
00:44:19.380 And that's what we're up against, which
00:44:22.900 is why I, you know, we just need to put
00:44:26.500 it all to the side. Extend, I'm extending
00:44:31.180 the olive branch to anyone on the right
00:44:33.060 who I've had any problem with. Not saying
00:44:36.620 it's permanent. Like I said, down the line
00:44:38.720 might, might come a time to get back to
00:44:40.640 some of those arguments, but for now, I'm
00:44:42.860 just not interested in it.
00:44:43.800 Unless you're a politician. Now I
00:44:51.180 reserve the right to criticize politicians
00:44:52.680 at any point. We have to be able to do
00:44:55.120 that. Although even there, you know, I'll
00:44:57.300 do it on a case by case basis as needed,
00:44:59.200 but generally speaking we, we need unity
00:45:03.140 among conservatives. Now there are some
00:45:05.980 people who've already turned down this
00:45:07.320 invitation. James Lindsay, for example,
00:45:10.500 when I tweeted this a couple of days ago,
00:45:13.380 he said, he told me, no, thanks. Doesn't
00:45:16.200 want to unite. Doesn't want to stop
00:45:18.720 attacking people on the right, which even
00:45:22.080 after Charlie was assassinated, that's all
00:45:23.200 he's been doing. Just still going after
00:45:25.240 still not saying anything about the people
00:45:30.820 who would actually be, be pissing on his
00:45:34.620 grave if he were killed. No, no, no problem
00:45:36.980 with them. It's just going after the right.
00:45:38.800 Sure. And that's fine too. If that's how
00:45:41.720 you feel, um, um, you know, it's like
00:45:44.140 fine. I'm just done with you in that case
00:45:47.120 forever. We're not allies. You don't exist
00:45:50.360 anymore. Um, you're irrelevant. If, if even
00:45:56.000 now in the face of all this, after one of
00:45:57.860 our most important leaders has been shot
00:45:59.660 and killed on stage in front of us by a
00:46:01.220 deranged LGBT militant, if even now you
00:46:04.480 still have an appetite to spend your time
00:46:07.340 punching right, then I have nothing else
00:46:09.320 to say to you or about you, you are worse
00:46:14.880 than irrelevant and we will just move on
00:46:17.980 without you officially. And, and that's
00:46:21.980 fine. And that's fine also, but the lines
00:46:25.560 are being drawn is what I'm saying. And, um,
00:46:28.340 and they need to be drawn
00:46:29.760 because we don't have time. We don't
00:46:34.940 have time for this. We don't have time
00:46:37.100 for the people that are on, you know, the
00:46:38.620 people that have made a brand among
00:46:40.780 conservatives for just only ever now
00:46:43.900 criticizing conservatives, just constantly
00:46:45.960 nitpicking. I don't like the way you
00:46:47.440 phrased that. I, geez, I don't know about
00:46:49.840 that. That's a little too far.
00:46:51.180 We got no time for you people. Cut it
00:46:55.660 out. Okay. This is a spiritual war. This
00:47:00.300 is good versus evil. These people want
00:47:01.900 you dead. So cut that shit out and get
00:47:04.860 serious. Now's the time or just be left in
00:47:10.620 the dust.
00:47:10.980 And we'll go on and have this fight
00:47:15.860 without you. And, uh, you can just watch
00:47:18.660 from the sidelines like a pathetic,
00:47:20.420 impotent weakling. Uh, and again, if
00:47:24.460 that's your choice, then that's your
00:47:25.460 choice. But the time for choosing is right
00:47:28.540 now for everybody. Let's get to the daily
00:47:34.100 cancellation.
00:47:40.980 As we have discussed, and as you've no
00:47:42.880 doubt seen, because it's so prevalent
00:47:44.720 that it can't be avoided, leftists across
00:47:47.560 the country have been celebrating the
00:47:49.220 brutal murder of Charlie Kirk. Uh, this is
00:47:51.320 not just happening in the comments on
00:47:52.740 YouTube or in the left-wing digital fever
00:47:54.560 swamps like Reddit and blue skies is not
00:47:56.380 a case of the internet isn't real life. This
00:48:00.040 is happening everywhere on the internet
00:48:02.160 and in the real world. They're showing up
00:48:04.520 to Charlie's vigils to mock him and trample
00:48:06.940 on his memorials. They're celebrating in
00:48:08.380 the street, young and old men and women
00:48:09.780 leftists of all professions and
00:48:11.620 persuasions. It's happening everywhere.
00:48:13.140 Not, it's not fringe. It's not a rare
00:48:14.500 occurrence. It's not an aberration or an
00:48:16.200 exception to the rule. It is the rule.
00:48:19.780 Now, I know we want to tell ourselves
00:48:21.120 otherwise. I know we like to think that
00:48:22.780 the bile and vitriol that we see on
00:48:24.760 social media somehow is not reflective of
00:48:26.720 what's happening out in reality, but I'm
00:48:28.680 sorry to say, and I am sorry to say that
00:48:31.740 it's not, it's, it's, it's, uh, it is
00:48:34.180 reality. It's not a dream world. This is
00:48:37.740 not a hallucination. It's a thing that
00:48:39.560 exists in reality. And on social media, the
00:48:43.580 people who are saying all those terrible
00:48:45.020 things, they exist in reality. Now, granted
00:48:47.520 there are plenty of bots, but there are
00:48:49.200 also millions of actual humans. Now I know
00:48:53.360 that when you go out in public, when you go
00:48:54.760 to the gas station or the grocery store, um,
00:48:58.400 you look around and you see that everyone
00:49:02.180 is being basically polite, well, it kind of
00:49:05.260 depends on where you live, I guess, but, uh,
00:49:07.960 hopefully if you live in a semi-civilized
00:49:11.100 place, you look around and, and, and everyone
00:49:13.160 is being basically polite and you think, well,
00:49:15.720 if any of these people are leftists, surely
00:49:17.480 they wouldn't celebrate if I died. I mean, look
00:49:19.160 how polite and normal they seem. But
00:49:23.240 unfortunately, all the evidence tells us that
00:49:24.840 even the polite leftists in the produce aisle
00:49:26.660 would be happy if you were killed right in
00:49:28.940 front of them. I don't want that to be the
00:49:31.140 case. I wish it were not the case. I'm not
00:49:33.480 happy to report that it is the case, but it is
00:49:37.400 the case all the same. The majority of the
00:49:40.860 left, in other words, agree with this
00:49:42.640 protester at a Charlie Kirk vigil over the
00:49:45.180 weekend. Watch.
00:49:52.580 I don't want your salvations. I want you to
00:49:57.640 die. We're not going to give you a second
00:50:00.360 chance. Even when you beg for it, on your
00:50:03.240 knees, begging and pleading. I want you to
00:50:06.620 die, he sings. Never mind that he has the
00:50:09.420 singing voice of a hearing impaired toad. This
00:50:12.220 is what they think of you. This is how they
00:50:14.160 feel. They will post it. They will say it.
00:50:17.700 They will sing it proudly at your vigil. But
00:50:20.700 the good news is that for the first time
00:50:22.100 ever, ever, they may actually pay a price
00:50:25.200 for it. As leftists have gloated and
00:50:26.980 cheered the murder of Charlie Kirk, another
00:50:29.060 much more unexpected phenomenon has occurred.
00:50:31.480 A bunch of them are losing their jobs
00:50:33.680 because of it. The Daily Wire reports on
00:50:36.080 just a few of the many dozens of examples.
00:50:38.300 Quote, the response from the left to the
00:50:39.840 assassination of conservative commentator in
00:50:41.500 Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk has
00:50:43.080 been nothing short of sickening. They have
00:50:46.040 justified and even celebrated his death and
00:50:47.940 some have begun to face consequences for
00:50:49.780 their actions. MSNBC's Matthew Dowd was the
00:50:52.060 first domino to fall after he essentially
00:50:53.480 argued during live coverage of the
00:50:54.800 assassination that Kirk had encouraged the
00:50:56.560 politically motivated violence that claimed
00:50:58.260 his life. Following Dowd's ouster, MSNBC
00:51:00.420 sent a letter to all employees urging them to
00:51:02.280 do better. Matthew Foley reported a letter was
00:51:04.900 sent to all MSNBC staff admonishing them and
00:51:06.960 saying they need to do better following
00:51:08.500 Matthew Dowd's firing for his heinous comments.
00:51:11.680 An Office Depot employee was also terminated
00:51:14.000 over the weekend for refusing to print a
00:51:15.480 poster of Kirk for a prayer vigil telling
00:51:17.820 members of the group Michigan Forward that
00:51:19.800 the poster was political propaganda. The
00:51:22.060 poster question featured a photo of Kirk along
00:51:23.860 with the lines, the legendary Charlie Kirk
00:51:26.040 1993 to 2025. A Secret Service agent who said
00:51:29.300 that Kirk deserved to be killed was placed on
00:51:31.160 leave and expected to be fired. Nick Sorter
00:51:33.240 reported citing a source within the Department of
00:51:35.560 Homeland Security. Secret Service agent who
00:51:37.040 publicly said Charlie Kirk deserved to be killed
00:51:39.020 has officially been placed on leave, expected to
00:51:41.380 be imminently fired per DHS, he said. Other
00:51:44.220 reports indicate that an advisory board member at
00:51:46.900 the Cincinnati Bengals star Joe Burris Charitable
00:51:49.040 Foundation was terminated for post celebrating
00:51:51.220 Kirk's murder, as was a communication specialist
00:51:53.780 with the Carolina Panthers. A number of others have
00:51:56.200 either been terminated or suspended and calls are
00:51:58.620 still going out for more to come. As I said, these
00:52:01.200 are just a few examples. There have been many, many,
00:52:05.000 many cases and more added every hour of leftists
00:52:08.240 getting fired after publicly celebrating the death of
00:52:11.660 Charlie Kirk. One of the most egregious examples is a
00:52:14.500 nurse at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. She posted
00:52:17.260 F his kids, F his ancestors, especially the bitch who
00:52:20.440 birthed him. She now joins the long list of people who've
00:52:23.940 been fired for expressing sentiments like these in
00:52:26.900 public. They come from, again, all walks of life. Nurses,
00:52:30.180 airline pilots, corporate executives, government workers,
00:52:32.560 teachers. A public school teacher in Canada reportedly
00:52:35.560 showed a video of the assassination to her students and
00:52:39.180 said that Charlie deserved to die and she's now been
00:52:42.160 suspended. Now, it's the second part, the part where these
00:52:45.720 ghouls experience some small measure of punishment that's
00:52:49.100 given rise to a conversation about cancel culture and
00:52:52.100 accusations from the left and even from some on the right that
00:52:55.440 conservatives are now practicing the very cancel culture that
00:52:59.960 they once decried. By calling for and celebrating the firing of
00:53:04.000 people who applauded Charlie's murder, we have exposed
00:53:06.480 ourselves as hypocrites, they say. We're no different than the
00:53:09.740 ones we condemn. We are now the proponents of cancel culture.
00:53:13.680 What happened is free speech, they demand. How can we call
00:53:16.400 ourselves free speech advocates if we're also advocating for
00:53:19.620 people to experience consequences for saying unimaginably
00:53:22.040 heinous things? Well, allow me to explain. There is a fundamental
00:53:29.680 difference between the cancel culture that the left engages in and
00:53:34.280 the quote-unquote canceling that the right is doing in the wake of
00:53:37.540 Charlie's assassination and the left celebration of it. The
00:53:41.260 difference is that the left will cancel you for saying objectively true,
00:53:45.820 good, and normal things. To the extent that the right cancels you,
00:53:50.420 it'll be for saying objectively abhorrent, perverse, and sick things. And
00:53:56.420 this distinction matters. As I've said for years, the problem with the
00:54:00.600 left's attack on speech is not just that they're attacking speech, but
00:54:05.440 that they're attacking true and right speech. They want you to be fired for
00:54:10.880 saying, for example, that men can't have babies and women don't have
00:54:14.460 penises. The problem isn't simply that they're trying to get you fired for
00:54:18.860 saying something. It's that they're trying to get you fired for saying the
00:54:22.800 most basic and true things that it's possible for a person to say. The left's
00:54:28.740 war on speech is not a war just on speech. It's a war on truth. They want to
00:54:33.260 punish truth. And that will always be worse. Obviously, significantly worse.
00:54:40.460 There is a difference in kind between the statement men aren't women and the statement
00:54:48.200 Charlie Kirk deserved to die because he was a fascist, Nazi, racist bigot. What's the
00:54:53.500 difference? Well, the first statement is the most obviously true thing that anyone can
00:54:57.540 ever say. The second statement is a demented, deranged, perverse, sick, evil, wicked, horrendous,
00:55:03.500 outrageous lie that not only smears the good name of an innocent man, but also implicitly
00:55:07.760 encourages violence against the millions of people who agree with his politics. That's
00:55:11.460 the difference. And the idea that we can't advocate social consequences against the latter
00:55:16.540 statement without also accepting or approving of such consequences for the former statement
00:55:21.260 is asinine. The idea that society must treat all speech exactly the same as if it's impossible
00:55:29.980 to distinguish between banal everyday truth and the deranged, hallucinatory rantings of bloodthirsty,
00:55:36.160 sociopathic hobgoblins is totally ludicrous. Now, I don't think that such ranting should
00:55:43.580 be made illegal. I don't think that the people celebrating Charlie's death should be banned
00:55:48.880 by the government from saying those things. But I do think it's good that these people lose
00:55:56.500 their jobs. It's good that they are shamed and humiliated and must live with the repercussions
00:56:01.560 for the rest of their lives. It's good if they wake up every day until they die, wishing
00:56:06.760 they had not said what they said. That's what I want. I want them to wake up every single
00:56:13.580 day and the first thing they think is, my God, I wish I hadn't said that. It took my entire
00:56:19.660 life off the rails. Everything has changed for the worse because I had to go and say the most
00:56:24.980 vile and disgusting thing that anyone could ever say. I want them to be the first thought
00:56:30.380 in their head every day when they wake up. We cannot have a civilized and decent society
00:56:36.700 unless there are severe social consequences for people who express publicly these kinds
00:56:43.720 of sentiments. Okay? Because these people are barbarians. They are savages and should be treated
00:56:51.320 as such. Free speech does not mean that we should act with anything but revulsion and
00:56:56.640 disgust to people who say revolting and disgusting things and who in turn reveal themselves to be
00:57:02.840 revolting and disgusting human beings. I'll take that nurse I mentioned earlier.
00:57:10.040 Just think about this. Upon seeing that a man with a wife and two young children have been
00:57:14.440 shot in the throat on stage, her first reaction was to cuss out his kids and his
00:57:21.320 mother and gloat about the murder. Now, that sort of statement, look, I know we're all desensitized
00:57:30.320 from being on the internet, but you have to understand, I mean, that kind of, that is not
00:57:36.960 just an expression of an opinion. That is a revelation of her character and it is the character of someone
00:57:45.600 who is barely human at this point, barely has a soul. You know, it's, it's, it's, it's a character of
00:57:55.460 someone who is unfit to live among civilized people, of someone who should be shunned and shamed and
00:58:01.900 alienated by society. Not through force of law, not through legislation or legal consequence, certainly not
00:58:10.400 through violence, but through social rejection. Because people who cuss out the children of men
00:58:17.280 who are murdered on live TV deserve to be socially rejected. Because monsters should be treated like
00:58:25.240 monsters and she is a monster. Now the left may now say that even if it doesn't infringe on free speech
00:58:33.200 rights to fire someone for saying something abhorrent, that even so we should have more grace and
00:58:38.140 forgiveness. Well, guys, you should have thought of that before you spent the last 20 years trying to
00:58:46.000 destroy our lives for saying anything that you even vaguely disagree with. You should have thought of that
00:58:51.740 before you danced on my friend's grave and laughed at his grieving widow. No, what you want is for us to
00:58:59.380 grant you radical tolerance and acceptance while you continue to give us no such thing in return.
00:59:08.140 But that deal doesn't work anymore, guys. The deal doesn't work. The deal is over. It's off.
00:59:16.240 We never should have gone along with it to begin with, and now it is over. You will be held to your
00:59:22.720 own standard. You will have your own rules enforced against you. You will be given your own
00:59:29.220 medicine, whether you like it or not. And you will not like it. But here we are. You brought it on
00:59:37.480 yourselves. And that is why, that is why the leftists celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder are today
00:59:46.480 canceled. That'll do it for the show today. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening.
00:59:51.720 Talk to you tomorrow. Have a great day. Godspeed.
00:59:59.220 Don't just get the news. Understand what the news means on The Michael Knowles Show. I will take you
