Summary

On September 10th, Charlie Kirk was shot to death in his own home in Salt Lake City, Utah. On September 11th, out of nowhere, the shooter confesses that he was the shooter. But what does that mean for the possibility of a political motive?


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Yesterday, just hours before the district attorney of Utah County formally announced
00:00:04.900 the charges against Charlie Kirk's assassin, and before he ran through some new evidence
00:00:08.820 that authorities had collected, a left-wing journalist named Ken Klippenstein published
00:00:14.200 an exclusive article on his Substack, which happens to be one of the most popular political
00:00:17.880 Substacks in the country. To much fanfare, Klippenstein reported that he had obtained
00:00:22.260 private messages from people who knew the shooter, which were sent on the day that
00:00:27.600 Charlie Kirk was killed. These messages were uploaded to a private server on Discord,
00:00:32.560 which is a communication service that's popular among young people, particularly young people
00:00:36.320 who play video games. Here's one of the screenshots that Klippenstein provided in his article.
00:00:41.440 As you can see, at 3.17 p.m. on September 10th, somebody wrote, Charlie Kirk got shot.
00:00:47.840 And then around 30 minutes later, somebody writes, dead. Roughly an hour after that,
00:00:52.760 somebody else writes, I just saw that video. R.I.P., I guess. Bro didn't deserve to go out like
00:00:58.220 that. Sad. And then according to this screenshot, the messages stop there. No one says anything at
00:01:04.720 all, again, until late the next day on September 11th at 8.57 p.m. And that message comes directly
00:01:12.280 from the shooter. He says he's sorry and tells his friends that he's going to turn himself in.
00:01:16.380 And then on September 12th, this message was posted in the Discord server. It reads,
00:01:22.880 Hey, everyone, if you have not seen the news yet, Tyler's post is true. He was taken into custody
00:01:26.960 earlier today for the shooting of Charlie Kirk. While Charlie Kirk's politics were not acceptable
00:01:31.240 to some, I ask that we all say a prayer for him and his family during these confusing times.
00:01:37.340 Close quote. Now, the rest of the article contains quotes from one of the shooter's friends claiming he
00:01:41.680 was generally apolitical. And then Klippenstein offers this conclusion, quote, Trump and company
00:01:46.620 portray the alleged Utah shooter as left wing and liberals portray him as right wing. But the federal
00:01:51.220 conclusion will inevitably be that he was a so-called nihilist violent extremist, NVE.
00:01:57.920 Now, to recap, some members of the shooter's Discord group shared a small number of screenshots with a
00:02:02.440 popular left wing substack author. The screenshots show that the community was mostly focused on video
00:02:07.820 games and wasn't celebrating Kirk's death in the slightest. Allegedly, the author publishes those
00:02:12.920 screenshots and presents them as proof that the shooter was not actually left wing. Supposedly, he was
00:02:18.720 just nihilistic and, you know, angry at the world. Very transparently, the intent of this article was to
00:02:25.200 deflect any suspicion from Discord and the people the shooter was interacting with on the platform. And
00:02:31.440 presumably, that's why the shooter's friends gave those screenshots to Ken Klippenstein to begin
00:02:35.340 with. But in truth, in reality here, the screenshots raise far more questions than they answer. So
00:02:43.340 let's pull that first screenshot up again. Let's look at this again. After Charlie is shot, according to
00:02:48.860 the screenshot, there's a grand total of five messages on this Discord server written by two people
00:02:54.320 about the assassination. And none of them are incriminating or even controversial.
00:02:59.820 And these messages stop by 5pm. The entire evening of September 10th, after all this had happened, and
00:03:10.260 most of September 11th, the next day until 9pm, no one says anything at all. And then, out of nowhere, the
00:03:16.880 shooter confesses. He basically tells an empty room that appears to be uninterested in the Kirk
00:03:22.640 assassination, that he did it. Now, this is not evidence, as Ken claimed, that the shooter had no
00:03:30.180 political motivations and wasn't operating as part of a coordinated terror plot. It does not exonerate
00:03:35.840 the shooter's acquaintances in any way. It's actually very odd, as far as evidence goes. I mean, it suggests
00:03:41.600 that some messages from this Discord server may have been deleted or redacted before the screenshots were
00:03:47.660 sent to Ken Klippenstein. Which would not be shocking, by the way. I mean, these people obviously
00:03:52.300 have every incentive to make it appear as though they didn't know about this and were not celebrating
00:03:58.800 it and had no hand in coordinating it. Of course, they have every incentive to do that.
00:04:06.460 Or it suggests that they were communicating through a different channel in the interim between the last
00:04:11.580 message from the group and the out of nowhere confession from the killer. And it supports the
00:04:17.260 conclusion that, for one reason or another, some of the influential left-wing voices in the country,
00:04:23.620 as well as close associates of the Sassen, are desperate to hide the shooter's political
00:04:28.580 motivation. And in the process, they're getting very sloppy. Now, I say that because Ken Klippenstein
00:04:35.060 wasn't the only prominent leftist on Substack to clumsily push a narrative like this. Heather Cox
00:04:40.320 Richardson, who I'm told is the single most popular political commentator on Substack,
00:04:44.420 wrote that Kirk's assassin had embraced the far right. She said that conservative commentators
00:04:50.460 had created a fictional world to argue otherwise. Now, to restate what's happening here, some of the
00:04:56.500 most influential voices on the left, not Reddit trolls, not bots on Twitter, actual people with
00:05:02.840 large audiences are going out of their way to lie about the murder of Charlie Kirk. And it's not just
00:05:08.540 on Substack either. Here's a Jimmy Kimmel show from the other day. Watch this.
00:05:13.460 We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize
00:05:18.100 this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they
00:05:23.140 can to score political points from it. In between the finger pointing, there was grieving.
00:05:29.340 So to review, he says, we hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying
00:05:33.540 to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them.
00:05:40.220 Think about how little this statement makes sense. Charlie was a leader, maybe the single
00:05:45.020 most important leader after Trump of the MAGA movement, beloved by MAGA. And now Kimmel is saying
00:05:54.040 that MAGA killed Charlie. On its face, it makes no sense. The only way that Kimmel's line could
00:06:01.840 possibly make any sense whatsoever is if you had no idea who Charlie was. I mean, you have to be
00:06:06.960 ignorant to a chronic degree, either that, or you have to be a committed partisan, someone who
00:06:11.640 genuinely doesn't care about the truth. And as we're learning, that's a very good descriptor for
00:06:15.760 many leftists in this country and certainly Jimmy Kimmel's entire audience. As we discussed last week,
00:06:21.400 there was never any evidence supporting the theory that the shooter was a conservative or an
00:06:25.480 apolitical nihilist or any of that. And yesterday when the Utah County DA held a press conference
00:06:31.400 outlining additional evidence that's been uncovered in the investigation, that theory, as flimsy and
00:06:35.920 unsupported as it was, fell apart finally in its entirety. Watch.
00:06:42.980 Robinson's mother stated that the following to police. On September 11th, 2025, the day after the
00:06:51.340 shooting, Robinson's mother saw the photo of the shooter in the news and thought the shooter looked
00:06:57.440 like her son. Robinson's mother called her son and asked him where he was. He said he was at home sick
00:07:09.540 and that he had also been at home homesick on September 10th. Robinson's mother expressed concern
00:07:17.300 to her husband that the suspect shooter looked like Robinson. Robinson's father agreed. Robinson's
00:07:25.400 mother explained that over the last year or so, Robinson had become more political and had started to lean
00:07:33.180 more to the left, becoming more pro-gay and trans rights oriented. She stated that Robinson began to
00:07:41.360 date his roommate, a biological male who was transitioning genders. Now, before we continue with
00:07:49.240 the press conference, I need to say something about the DA's choice of words here. Public officials should
00:07:53.680 not legitimize for any reason the idea that someone can transition between the two genders. This
00:07:59.200 roommate was not in the process of becoming a woman because it's not possible for a man to be
00:08:03.780 to be a woman. We're talking about a gay man who wore furry costumes, apparently, and wrote emo posts on
00:08:10.900 Reddit about how he hated injecting himself with cross-sex hormones. He was destroying his life at a very
00:08:16.120 young age in service of a lie. When public officials use terms like transition genders, they're saying
00:08:21.760 all that behavior is legitimate. I mean, that's what they are intentionally or not implying. They're
00:08:26.860 giving gender transition the stamp of approval from the Utah district attorney's office, but it's not
00:08:31.120 legitimate. It's disturbing, unnatural, impossible. And if we want to eradicate transgender extremism in
00:08:41.160 this country and prevent more assassinations like this, then we have to drop the pretense that these
00:08:46.240 gender-affirming procedures, quote-unquote, have any claim to legitimacy whatsoever. There's no excuse
00:08:51.280 for anyone in a position of authority to say otherwise. Now, getting back to the substance of
00:08:54.840 the press conference, the DA says that over the last year or so, the shooter became more political,
00:08:59.700 leaned more to the left, became preoccupied with transgenderism and gay rights, to the point that,
00:09:05.500 as we know now, he began dating his roommate who was, quote-unquote, transitioning.
00:09:10.960 And that's according to the shooter's mother, who's obviously going to be a reliable source. And
00:09:16.260 later on in communications with his roommate after the shooting, the shooter explicitly stated that he
00:09:22.060 had been motivated by Charlie's political statements. Watch. In one conversation before the shooting,
00:09:27.900 Robinson mentioned that Charlie Kirk would be holding an event at UVU, which Robert Robinson said
00:09:35.860 was a stupid venue for the event. Robinson accused Kirk of spreading hate. Robinson's father reported
00:09:45.600 that when his wife showed him the surveillance image of the suspected shooter in the news, he agreed
00:09:51.460 that it looked like their son. He also believed that the rifle that police suspected the shooter used
00:09:58.400 matched a rifle that was given to his son as a gift. As a result, Robinson's father
00:10:04.860 contacted his son and asked him to send a photo of the rifle. Robinson did not respond. However,
00:10:13.120 Robinson's father spoke on the phone with Robinson. Robinson implied that he planned to take his own
00:10:20.260 life. Robinson's parents were able to convince him to meet at their home. As they discussed the
00:10:27.080 situation, Robinson implied that he was the shooter and stated that he couldn't go to jail and just
00:10:32.960 wanted to end it. When asked why he did it, Robinson explained there is too much evil and the guy
00:10:41.020 referring to Charlie Kirk spreads too much hate. This is where, once again, it's reasonable to debate
00:10:47.660 the narrative we're being told and the facts as they appear. Let's put the messages between the
00:10:53.420 trans-identifying roommate and the shooter up on the screen. And what happened is that after the
00:10:59.720 shooting, the shooter texted his furry roommate, his trans-furry roommate, that he needed to read a note
00:11:07.460 that the shooter had placed underneath the keyboard. And then when the roommate reads the note, which
00:11:12.300 confesses that he shot Charlie Kirk, the roommate says, what? You're joking, right? And in response,
00:11:18.100 the shooter writes, quote, I'm still okay, my love, but I'm stuck in Orem for a little while longer yet.
00:11:24.060 Shouldn't be long until I can come home, but I got to grab my rifle still. To be honest, I'd hope to keep
00:11:29.140 the secret till I die of old age. I'm sorry to involve you. The response from the furry gay roommate
00:11:35.140 is, quote, you weren't the one who did it, right? Answer, I am. I'm sorry. Now, already there's something
00:11:43.600 more than a little off here. They're not talking like young people in their early 20s. There's no
00:11:49.600 emojis or, you know, shorthand or anything like that. Instead, the shooter is talking like a, you know,
00:11:55.560 like a medieval knight who's late for dinner at Camelot or something. My love, I'm stuck here
00:12:03.100 for a little while longer yet. Is this how people speak to each other in hedonistic homosexual Reddit
00:12:10.080 relationships? And then he casually mentions, casually mentions the rifle, giving the roommate
00:12:15.320 the opportunity to make it clear that he knew nothing about the assassination. Quote, why did I do it?
00:12:20.720 I had enough of this hatred. Some hate can't be negotiated out. How long have you been planning
00:12:26.840 this? A bit over a week, I believe. I'm wishing I had circled back and grabbed the rifle as soon
00:12:32.360 as I got to my vehicle. Close quote. Now, again, not to get too much into semantics and that sort of
00:12:40.060 thing, but, you know, no one refers to their car as my vehicle. And again, that's not how normal
00:12:46.280 human beings interact with one another, especially people this age. You would say, as soon as I got
00:12:51.340 back to my car, right? Not my vehicle. But more importantly, imagine that your roommate and gay
00:12:58.780 lover has just admitted that he's committed a gruesome assassination. The first question you
00:13:05.800 would ask probably wouldn't be, oh, really? How long have you been planning that? It couldn't
00:13:13.020 possibly be long enough for me to notice, right? Like, that's just not going to be your first
00:13:18.120 answer. Someone comes in and says, I assassinated this, you know, political figure. How long have
00:13:22.700 you been planning that? Instead, you probably respond immediately with shock and horror, and then
00:13:29.260 you tell him to turn himself in and call the police yourself. I mean, you'd be far too panicked and far
00:13:35.060 too confused to do much more than that. But that's not what happened here. As far as we know,
00:13:38.600 this roommate didn't contact law enforcement, even though a murderer was about to head back to his
00:13:44.600 apartment. Instead, he simply stopped responding to the shooter, who proceeded to make a series of
00:13:48.940 additional statements that incriminated him and him alone. Quote, if I'm able to grab my rifle unseen,
00:13:54.640 I will have left no evidence. I'm worried what my old man would do if I'd bring back, if I didn't
00:14:00.680 bring back grandpa's rifle. I don't know if I had a serial number, but I wouldn't, it wouldn't trace to
00:14:05.500 me. I worry about prints. I had to leave it in a bush where I changed outfits. Remember how I was
00:14:09.860 engraving bullets? The messages are mostly a big meme. Now, this is supposedly an intelligent
00:14:18.020 individual who received a scholarship to a state university in Utah because of his near-perfect
00:14:23.040 grades and test scores, and he appears to be completely unaware that security cameras exist.
00:14:28.560 He also doesn't seem to realize how easy it would be to trace the rifle directly to him
00:14:32.520 if the authorities recovered it. He also doesn't seem to consider the risks involved in writing a
00:14:36.740 confession in, you know, putting a confession in writing, using text messages, literally writing,
00:14:44.480 here's how I hid the evidence in a text message that can easily be obtained by law enforcement.
00:14:50.680 We're supposed to believe that neither of these guys realize that the FBI can obtain your text
00:14:55.940 messages even if you delete them, and it will take them like 45 seconds to do so.
00:14:59.860 Instead, he's casually suggesting that he's going to get away with the single most high-profile
00:15:05.280 political assassination in a generation, and that his biggest concern is explaining the missing
00:15:10.120 rifle to his father, or his old man, as he refers to him. He says he had intended to take the secret
00:15:16.720 to the grave with him, but instead he decided to confess to his roommate within like a few minutes.
00:15:21.760 Now, this is either extraordinary stupidity, which is written in a very stilted and unnatural
00:15:26.520 fashion, written in a language that sounds like chat GPT or something, or it's a pre-planned effort
00:15:32.640 to absolve the roommate and others of any responsibility. Now, those are the two options
00:15:39.960 here, and you're not crazy if you're leaning towards the latter. That's very much what it
00:15:47.600 sounds like, and even if you accept these texts as completely honest and above board,
00:15:50.880 you still have to explain this line, quote, remember how I was engraving bullets? The message
00:15:56.020 are mostly a big meme. Remember how I was engraving bullets? I mean, that's a pretty big red flag
00:16:02.840 as far as red flags go. After all, it's not every day that you come across your roommate engraving
00:16:09.040 bullets with any messages at all, much less messages like, hey, fascist catch. You don't engrave
00:16:17.420 bullets to go hunting or to go target shooting. You don't engrave bullets when you're going out to
00:16:24.980 the range. You don't engrave bullets you might use for self-defense. There would be no point. On
00:16:31.840 the other hand, if you want to send a message after you commit a terrorist attack, it makes perfect sense
00:16:35.540 to engrave bullets. Like, engraving bullets is something that mass shooters and political assassins
00:16:42.480 do. And nobody else, ever. So why didn't this trans-identifying roommate ask about any of this?
00:16:51.000 When, according to his name, he saw his gay lover carving messages into ammunition.
00:16:57.820 How did he react to that, if he reacted at all?
00:17:02.060 Those are questions that federal investigators have to answer. I mean, every indication we have right now,
00:17:06.520 whether it's coming from these ridiculous Substack articles or the shooter himself,
00:17:09.900 is that a cover-up is underway. The official story does not make any sense. We're led to believe,
00:17:18.380 as hundreds of thousands of leftists openly celebrated the murder of a conservative political
00:17:21.860 figure, something that conservatives haven't done in the modern history of this country, that somehow
00:17:26.340 all the people close to the shooter were horrified by what he had done. The Discord server was mortified.
00:17:33.680 The furry roommate was stunned. The furry roommate that had seen him carving bullets was stunned.
00:17:38.100 He had no idea. That's what we're supposed to believe. We're supposed to believe that he was
00:17:42.660 radicalized into left-wing trans-extremism and began plotting the most high-profile political
00:17:49.100 assassination of the century, and did all this without anyone knowing and without his trans-boyfriend,
00:17:55.160 who lives with him, catching wind of it. Even though the boyfriend literally saw him engraving
00:18:00.620 left-wing extremist messaging into bullets, from a rational perspective, the propaganda is not
00:18:08.260 convincing. I mean, at this point, any honest person understands that Charlie Kirk's assassination
00:18:13.320 was an act of left-wing LGBT terrorism, and that we're being lied to. And to be perfectly clear,
00:18:23.460 again, again, I have absolutely no doubt that this was left-wing terrorism. That's what this was. This was
00:18:29.940 left-wing terrorism. Left-wing terrorists are the greatest domestic terror threat that we face.
00:18:37.500 They have been killing for years. They killed Charlie Kirk. They will kill again.
00:18:41.440 But is there a conspiracy involved in this? I think very likely there is. The conspiracy, though,
00:18:52.000 if there is one, is among the other left-wing militants who potentially plotted the attack or knew
00:19:00.360 about it, and then staged these messages and communications after the effect to absolve themselves.
00:19:07.260 Remember, there were trans activists, trans accounts on X talking about this shooting before it
00:19:17.560 happened, which is very, very good indication that it was known before it happened, that there were
00:19:27.540 discussions about it, and yet we're supposed to believe that he didn't discuss it with anybody.
00:19:32.680 I don't believe that. I don't believe that. Was there a conspiracy here? I think all of the
00:19:42.800 evidence and common sense points to, yes, a conspiracy, a far more wide-ranging conspiracy
00:19:48.240 among left-wing militants. That is the conspiracy that I find very plausible and which must be
00:19:56.060 investigated. And it's very easy to see, it's a very plausible scenario, that he had help and he
00:20:09.500 had coordination with other militants. And the plan after the fact was that he was going to take the
00:20:15.360 fall. And so he staged these communications that they knew would be found. And that's why it sounds,
00:20:22.460 that's why, that's why, that's why, that's what it sounds like. It sounds like this is exactly the
00:20:27.040 conversation you would have if you're trying to check all the boxes to absolve this other guy
00:20:32.820 and put it all on yourself. Meanwhile, the narrative machine is adapting. They're moving away from
00:20:39.840 specific factual claims and entering the realm of perverse and deranged attempts at emotional
00:20:44.560 manipulation. Here's ABC's Matt Gutman, for example. Watch.
00:20:47.680 We have seen an alleged murder with such specific text messages about the alleged murder weapon,
00:20:56.300 where it was hidden, how it was placed, what was on it. But also, it was very touching in a way that I
00:21:01.340 think many of us didn't expect. A very intimate portrait into this relationship between the suspect's
00:21:07.580 roommate and the suspect himself, with him repeatedly calling his roommate who was transitioning,
00:21:13.420 calling him my love, and I want to protect you, my love. So it was this duality of someone who
00:21:19.020 the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in
00:21:24.220 front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case. And on the other hand,
00:21:28.600 he was, you know, speaking so lovingly about his partner. So a very interesting and, as Pierre said,
00:21:33.760 riveting press conference, David.
00:21:35.800 He's genuinely moved by these text messages between the cross-dressing furry roommate and the murderer who
00:21:40.920 just executed a leading conservative figure in front of thousands of students, including children.
00:21:45.660 He's acting like it's a, you know, classic love story. The tale is old as time.
00:21:49.840 As the assassin discussed hiding incriminating evidence and demonstrating precisely zero remorse
00:21:54.060 or sympathy for the man that he just murdered, ABC News reporter Matt Gutman was touched.
00:21:58.900 He was moved by the duality of the messages. Of course, there's no duality here at all. These messages are evil.
00:22:05.540 Whether you take them at face value or not, they reflect an ideology of hedonism and violence and murder
00:22:13.980 that is fundamentally incompatible with Christianity and Western civilization that indeed is bent on the
00:22:19.540 destruction of Christianity and of Western civilization. The shooter and his trans boyfriend,
00:22:25.800 you know, they weren't shacking up to glorify God. They didn't do that to bring any joy or new life
00:22:32.760 into the world, but in order to commiserate, to hate, to bring others down to a level of their
00:22:38.020 miserable, pathetic existence. And that's exactly what they did. That's why one member of this pair,
00:22:44.060 at least one member, at least, just extinguished one of the leading Christian voices in the entire
00:22:50.840 world. But at ABC, the same network where Jimmy Kimmel works, by the way, incidentally,
00:22:55.020 they're not horrified by any of this. They find it thrilling. They can't get enough of it.
00:22:59.040 That's right. Ten minutes after this segment aired, the same reporter doubled down. And in some ways,
00:23:03.980 this segment's even worse than the first one. Watch.
00:23:06.640 Children were present. Children witnessed this. Children were put in harm's way. And that was
00:23:12.400 something that obviously is aggravating here. And that's one of the reasons that the suspect,
00:23:16.020 in addition to the alleged murder being political in nature, is facing the death penalty. They're going
00:23:21.680 for the death penalty. And on the other hand, there is this duality of a very, a portrait of a very
00:23:26.860 human person, a very human experience from this entire family. As you mentioned it, the mother
00:23:32.360 who essentially discovered that it was her son who had done this, the kid who had got a 34 out of 36
00:23:38.900 on the ACTs, who had a 4.0, who got a full ride to college here, that that kid was the one who
00:23:45.220 allegedly perpetrated. She saw those pictures and said, identified him essentially. And then those text
00:23:50.740 messages. And I don't think I've ever experienced a press conference in which we've read text messages
00:23:55.220 that are A, so fulsome, so robust, so apparently, allegedly self-incriminating, and yet, on the
00:24:00.600 other hand, so touching, right? With the suspect reaching out to his roommate, who is allegedly his
00:24:06.180 boyfriend, who we understand, you know, identified as male at birth, now identifies as female. And the
00:24:14.780 terminology he used, he was trying to protect him. He kept calling him, my love, my reason for doing
00:24:19.140 this is to protect you, you know, but also asking him to delete the messages and not speak to law
00:24:25.200 enforcement. So there's this, this heartbreaking duality that we're seeing very tragically playing
00:24:30.100 out. After his report, no producer got in his ear and told him to knock it off. No one at ABC had any
00:24:36.580 issue with what he said. So he said it again, with even more emphasis this time. He's happy to wax poetic
00:24:42.600 about a murderer's standardized test scores and his touching conversations right after he shot Charlie
00:24:48.460 Kirk to death. All these people need to be taken off the air immediately. Jimmy Kimmel, Matt Gutman,
00:24:54.880 all these people should not be allowed on the air by their networks. I mean, it is irredeemable.
00:25:03.240 And that's not just because of their response to the murder of Charlie, although by itself,
00:25:07.100 that would be more than enough. It's because, as everyone can now see, corporate outlets like ABC
00:25:11.280 go out of their way to hide the truth about transgenderism and leftist extremism and the violence
00:25:17.820 that it unleashes on America every day. They exist to hide the truth. Here's just one example of a
00:25:23.920 story that they buried. This is from about a month before Charlie's assassination. Watch.
00:25:28.480 A Washington City woman accused of killing her parents is back in the headlines, this time
00:25:33.380 appealing directly to the Utah Supreme Court. 29-year-old Mia Bailey is facing 10 felony charges,
00:25:39.600 including two counts of aggravated murder and one count of attempted aggravated murder after the
00:25:44.600 shocking deaths of her parents, Joseph and Gail Bailey. Authorities say Bailey also attempted to
00:25:50.300 shoot her brother that same night. She was arrested the next day and has remained in jail ever since,
00:25:55.720 held without bail. Bailey, a transgender woman who legally changed her name and gender in 2023,
00:26:02.700 now finds herself at the center of a legal twist. In late June, Bailey submitted a written request to
00:26:08.700 the judge appealing to the state's decision not to seek the death penalty. Did you hear about this
00:26:13.940 story? Probably not. No one did. I only saw it because of, you know, a random X account posted the
00:26:18.780 footage. A cross-dresser in Utah was supposedly transitioning from male to female. He decides to
00:26:27.440 shoot both of his parents to death. After being arrested, he shows no remorse at all. And then when
00:26:32.940 the state announces that it won't pursue the death penalty, he files a motion requesting that the state
00:26:37.400 change its mind and execute. This demon actually wants to be put to death. And that's an unusual
00:26:44.800 motion, to say the least, kind of thing that in a sane society might get some coverage and some
00:26:48.400 attention. But no one talked about this case. Jimmy Kimmel and Matt Gutman certainly didn't talk about
00:26:52.660 it, and we all know why. The vast majority of trans violence goes unreported. Unless trans-identifying
00:26:59.420 individuals cause mass casualties at schools, churches, or conservative events, which they're doing
00:27:05.060 with increasing frequency, as you've probably noticed, then no one hears about the murders that
00:27:09.880 they're committing against family members or other individuals that they know personally.
00:27:14.680 This is an epidemic of violence that's being hidden deliberately. The Trump administration has the
00:27:20.300 opportunity right now to dismantle this threat. The entire industry of transgenderism must be outlawed.
00:27:26.200 No healthy individual should ever be injected with cross-sex hormones, much less mutilated ever again.
00:27:30.400 And the terror cells that openly advocate for murder on platforms like Reddit, Blue Sky, Discord,
00:27:37.320 must be shut down. Everybody involved hauled to prison. That's how you prevent these militants from
00:27:43.800 coordinating and finding affirmation in their delusions. That's how you prevent them from killing
00:27:48.880 any more of us. One of the many things Charlie accomplished better than anyone else was to have the
00:27:55.140 kind of discussions that aren't allowed on major television networks or social media platforms.
00:27:59.120 So we're going to end with this. It's a clip from one of Charlie's recent campus debates about four
00:28:02.760 months ago. A sociology professor walks up to the microphone. He asks Charlie what Donald Trump is
00:28:07.920 doing to improve the lives of students. And here's how Charlie responded.
00:28:11.960 What I would love to hear from you, genuinely, is what you believe the Trump administration has done
00:28:17.160 in these first four months that is making the economic futures of these young people better.
00:28:22.180 Yeah, I mean, look, he's been in office for like, what, 80 days, but quite a lot. Number one,
00:28:26.820 the price of oil is already down. So it's easier for everyone here to be able to drive home. The
00:28:30.020 gas is going to be cheaper, which also will lower inflation. Number two, a tax bill will hopefully
00:28:36.240 pass, which is no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, largest middle class tax cut in history. So
00:28:41.040 everyone here that's going to have a job where overtime is incorporated, they'll be able to keep
00:28:44.880 more of their money. Number three, we're opening up federal lands to build more homes, which is a great
00:28:49.560 thing because home ownership is way inaccessible for a lot of people in this audience. And it's
00:28:54.400 going to take some time. And one of the main reasons why President Trump won is because we
00:28:58.720 were able to move the youth vote rather significantly and substantially because the Democrat
00:29:04.160 party, A, took younger voters for granted. I think we can agree on that. Absolutely. And B,
00:29:08.840 they did not have an optimistic, hopeful agenda for home ownership, for getting married and having
00:29:13.820 children in this country. So I would like to see the Trump administration go even further
00:29:18.640 and make it so that every young person in this country can have accessibility to be able to own
00:29:23.440 a home. I think they should prohibit major funds like BlackRock from buying up private family homes
00:29:30.020 so that we have to compete against them. And I'll just do another thing I'm privately lobbying for
00:29:35.640 and publicly, because I'll say it here, is I don't think the Chinese Communist Party should be able
00:29:39.820 to buy up farmland in the western part of the United States. Absolutely. And with that,
00:29:44.780 single family homes. So that's just some of the ideas here. Sure. Sure. So can I respond? I actually
00:29:51.540 agree with most of what you're saying. You can tell from the applause that by and large, young people
00:29:56.120 want to hear exactly what Charlie is saying. They want an administration that will make housing more
00:30:00.640 affordable. They want an administration that will stand up to China and BlackRock and the big
00:30:04.600 institutional buyers of suburban homes. They want cheaper gas, so they're commuted and more manageable.
00:30:09.340 These are all proposals that for the typical leftists would seem to align with their agenda.
00:30:14.780 They're certainly not anything like what you would hear from Mitt Romney or Paul Ryan or George Bush
00:30:20.580 back in the day. What Charlie is saying is more populist than anything else. Bernie bros would
00:30:25.760 endorse every word of it. As you saw in that footage, even the sociology professor was on board with
00:30:31.360 what Charlie was saying. And maybe that explains why ABC and many other corporate networks have decided
00:30:36.240 to defame Charlie in death. Maybe that's why they're deliberately inciting LGBT terrorism and
00:30:41.320 celebrating it when it happens.
00:30:44.780 Charlie was resonating with a wide swath of people, really across the political spectrum.
00:30:52.820 That's what made him so dangerous. And he actually believed in free expression and advancing the
00:30:57.580 interests of people who had no voice. That's why he spent so much time on college campuses listening
00:31:01.800 to random college students recite their orthodoxy and debating them with respect and patience in every
00:31:07.780 single case. He didn't have to do that. He had much more important people he could be
00:31:13.380 talking to. He could have spent his whole career speaking to millionaires and billionaires, but he
00:31:17.980 didn't. Unlike Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren or Adam Schiff, he actually cared what no name
00:31:24.080 18 year olds had to say because he recognized their importance, not simply as voters, but also as human
00:31:29.240 beings with inherent value. That's why he appeared in public so often in wide open venues. And that's
00:31:35.940 why he was murdered. It's been a week since that day. The official narrative that the media and leftist
00:31:41.800 mouthpieces are trying to push remains incoherent. The text messages don't make any sense. Some of the
00:31:48.800 major news networks have decided to glorify the killers. Many leftists are openly celebrating Charlie's
00:31:54.920 death. This is not sustainable and it's not tolerable. The administration must demonstrate
00:31:59.500 clear and discreet progress in dismantling left-wing terror organizations, starting with the cult
00:32:06.040 of trans ideology. And it needs to do so immediately. The opportunity is there. If the last 24 hours have
00:32:16.160 made anything clear, it's that these people are panicking. They're desperately trying to come up with
00:32:20.620 some new defense or distraction, however implausible it may be. They know the hammer is coming
00:32:25.500 down. And now it's time to deliver the blow they're expecting and the one they deserve.
00:32:32.340 When was the last time you bragged about your wireless company? Like, did you know my wireless
00:32:36.320 company gave away a thousand American flags to deserving vets and forgave $10 million in veteran debt?
00:32:42.280 Did you know my wireless company raised almost half a million dollars to prevent veteran suicide?
00:32:45.880 When your wireless company is PureTalk, there's a whole lot to brag about. You can even brag about
00:32:50.640 the coverage you get with PureTalk, a 5G network that is insanely fast, dependable, and secure.
00:32:55.620 And you can brag about how much money you save with PureTalk. Unlimited talk text and 15 gigs of high-speed
00:33:00.380 data is just $35 a month with Mobile Hotspot. It's important to support companies that support you
00:33:05.980 and your values, and PureTalk does just that. It's one of the many reasons why I love PureTalk. It's time to
00:33:11.760 switch to my wireless company, PureTalk. But if you need another reason, something you can really brag
00:33:16.360 about, PureTalk is the only wireless company that gives you a one-year free membership to Daily Wire
00:33:21.300 Plus. When you go to puretalk.com slash Walsh, again, choose a qualifying plan at puretalk.com slash
00:33:26.940 Walsh and relish your free one-year membership to Daily Wire Plus. PureTalk, wireless worth bragging
00:33:33.480 about. We're going to go right from the opening to the cancellation today. It'll be a slightly abbreviated
00:33:39.140 show. And I want to talk about this. The assassination of Charlie Kirk was one of the
00:33:47.680 most direct and consequential attacks on the freedom of speech in American history. And
00:33:51.600 regardless of your political beliefs, that's undeniable for Christians and conservatives in
00:33:55.980 particular. The assassination was the latest and most horrifying of many, many recent efforts to
00:34:00.320 undermine our fundamental civil liberties. Christians have been arrested for praying peacefully outside of
00:34:04.960 abortion clinics. They've been punished for refusing to bake cakes for gay weddings, for refusing to
00:34:08.880 fund contraceptives for employees. And now, in a very public fashion, one of the most prominent
00:34:14.140 Christian voices in the country was gunned down for expressing his political views and his faith.
00:34:20.860 Now, in the wake of Charlie's murder, I said something that I still believe is true.
00:34:25.080 I still very much believe. Which is that on the right, and only on the right, now is the time for unity.
00:34:32.860 And I say only on the right, because that's the only place where there can be unity. There cannot be
00:34:38.440 unity with the left. It is literally impossible. They want us dead. They want to kill us. And even if
00:34:45.900 they didn't, we have nothing in common in terms of our values and beliefs and priorities.
00:34:54.720 We have no common ground. At all. None. We cannot agree on even what universe we live in.
00:35:02.860 But on the right, there needs to be unity. We have to put aside any internal squabbling or
00:35:07.220 vendettas that we might have on our own side, and we have to focus instead on crushing left-wing
00:35:12.080 extremism, including the cult of trans ideology. We have to pursue the billionaires who fund this
00:35:17.080 extremism, the NGOs that launder the billionaires' money, the doctors and hospitals that mutilate
00:35:22.360 patients for ideological and financial reasons. This has to be a coordinated and focused effort.
00:35:26.820 There's no room for any distraction or counter-signaling. And it's not an easy task.
00:35:32.800 Our opponents are extremely well-funded, very powerful. But if we cannot accomplish this,
00:35:39.120 then very soon the right to freedom of speech will become a dead letter. If it's not already,
00:35:43.860 the collapse of our constitutional order will follow. And therefore, a unified right is more
00:35:48.620 important than it's ever been. If we're going to have any chance of victory.
00:35:51.660 Now, at the same time, unity is impossible if some conservatives, particularly conservatives in
00:35:58.080 positions of power, don't grasp the fundamental goals of our movement. And that's why, although
00:36:04.060 it's obviously not an ideal situation, I wish we didn't have to do this right now, we do need to
00:36:10.940 talk at some length about the recent remarks of Pam Bondi, the attorney general, particularly what she
00:36:16.620 said on a podcast hosted by Katie Miller, who's the wife of top White House advisor Stephen Miller.
00:36:20.920 Now, you may have seen portions of this interview online, but I'm going to play footage with some
00:36:26.060 more context. Put bluntly, these remarks, along with her job performance in other areas, disqualify
00:36:31.600 Pam Bondi from serving as the attorney general of the United States. They make it very clear that she
00:36:35.740 is not equipped to lead the war on left-wing domestic terrorism that must urgently be waged.
00:36:41.800 And when I talked about unifying on the right, I did, as you remember, make an explicit exception for
00:36:46.520 politicians and public officials. And this is why we still need to be able to criticize them
00:36:50.040 when they drop the ball. And Pam Bondi is dropping the ball egregiously.
00:36:55.880 So here's the footage. Watch.
00:36:58.180 These universities are complicit in allowing conservatives to be harassed on campus.
00:37:02.920 And what happens when you allow a university to harass
00:37:05.760 conservatives and don't expell or don't take an action is what happened last week.
00:37:11.340 It is. And, you know, on a broader level, the anti-Semitism. What's been happening at college
00:37:17.080 campuses around this country is disgusting. It's despicable. And we've been fighting that. We've
00:37:22.020 been fighting these universities left and right. And we're not going to stop. There's free speech
00:37:27.280 and then there's hate speech. And there is no place, especially now, especially after what happened
00:37:33.520 to Charlie in our society. Do you see more law enforcement going after these groups who are
00:37:40.840 using hate speech and putting cuffs on people so we show them that some action is better than no action?
00:37:46.300 We will absolutely target you, go after you if you are targeting anyone with hate speech,
00:37:54.880 anything. And that's across the aisle. I mean, look what happened. Think about Josh Shapiro.
00:37:59.400 What happened to Governor Shapiro? I talked to Josh multiple times. Democrat, governor, Jewish.
00:38:07.000 They firebombed his house while his wife and children were sleeping upstairs. It's a miracle.
00:38:13.900 Nothing worse happened to. It's a miracle that nothing happened to Josh and he and his family are safe.
00:38:19.780 This should not need to be said. But the concept of hate speech should never be invoked
00:38:26.640 by anyone, much less a conservative and much less a conservative who's the highest law enforcement
00:38:35.920 official in the United States of America. Hate speech is not a real thing. Hate speech is not a
00:38:41.600 valid legal category, as Charlie Kirk himself argued. Hate speech is, if it's anything, it's protected
00:38:50.480 speech, period. You can say hateful things. You have the legal right to say hateful things.
00:38:55.840 You could say the most hateful, bigoted thing you want to say. And the government has no right to
00:39:01.600 punish you for it. Now, you could be, there could be social consequences. There could be cultural
00:39:06.540 consequences. Other people can decide that they don't want to associate with you anymore because you say
00:39:13.060 horrible, vile things and revealed yourself to be a horrible, vile person. That can happen, obviously.
00:39:18.940 But, uh, but, uh, but the, the government cannot punish you on the basis that what you said was
00:39:27.280 hateful. You can say hateful things. You can say hateful things about me. You could say hateful
00:39:34.400 things about, about Christians and conservatives. You can say hateful things about homosexuals.
00:39:40.280 You can target anyone you want with your hateful speech. It is your constitutional right to do so.
00:39:48.280 Again, there might be social consequences, but there should be no legal consequences.
00:39:53.680 And the alternative, as we see in authoritarian regimes like the UK, Canada, or North Korea,
00:39:58.340 is that legitimate political discourse will inevitably be labeled hate speech by the people
00:40:03.060 in charge. If I recorded my podcast, this very podcast in London, I'd be arrested by now. They're
00:40:10.300 dragging comedians and single mothers to prison because they oppose transgenderism and open borders.
00:40:14.500 That's what hate speech means in practice. It means suspending the freedom of expression. It means
00:40:18.640 forcing people to say things that they know are false. At the White House, Stephen Miller, who has
00:40:25.140 vowed to dismantle, uh, left-wing terror groups following Charlie's assassination, understands this very well
00:40:30.120 without mentioning Pam Bondi by name. He put, he basically put her on blast essentially, uh, saying
00:40:36.120 quote, the path forward is not to mimic the ACLU of the mid nineties. It's to take all necessary and
00:40:40.400 rational steps to save Western civilization. That's about as clear as it gets. Stephen Miller, who has
00:40:45.860 been absolutely excellent through all of this, by the way, and through Trump's whole term, absolutely
00:40:50.080 great. He understands that hate speech is a concept that was invented by the left for the purpose of
00:40:57.540 silencing conservative voices. It's a concept that's emboldened extremists, including LGBT terrorists.
00:41:04.480 After all, when the government says it's hateful to affirm the truth, it legitimizes some of the
00:41:09.260 most deranged and psychotic members of society. None of this should require any explanation for
00:41:15.020 anyone, much less the attorney general, but here we are. The day after this podcast aired, Pam Bondi
00:41:19.740 attempted to clean up her remarks in a post on X. Here's what she wrote, quote,
00:41:23.440 hate speech that crosses the line into threats of violence is not protected by the first amendment.
00:41:27.460 It's a crime. Uh, it is a crime for far too long. We've watched the radical left, normalized threats,
00:41:32.360 calls for assassination and cheer on political violence. That era is over. Free speech protects
00:41:36.660 ideas, debate, even dissent, but it does not. It will never protect violence. It is clear that this
00:41:41.520 violent rhetoric is designed to silence others, uh, others from voice and conservative ideals.
00:41:46.240 Now, most of this post is correct. Threats are not protected under the first amendment,
00:41:53.020 inciting, like inciting violence is in calling people to commit violence against some other
00:41:57.120 person is not protected by the first amendment. And leftists are attempting to silence conservative
00:42:02.700 speech using threats of violence as well as actual violence. But in her post, Bondi still uses the
00:42:07.320 term hate speech as if it's a real thing. And that's completely unacceptable and frankly embarrassing.
00:42:12.820 Hate speech is, is hate speech is distinct from threats. Threats are threats. You don't need to
00:42:18.000 use the word hate speech when you're talking about threats. Just say threats. Hate speech is an
00:42:24.180 un-American totalitarian concept that should never be endorsed in this country, period.
00:42:29.740 Now, if you're tempted to make the argument that Bondi slipped up twice,
00:42:34.120 she should be given another chance. Try answering this question. What has Bondi accomplished while in
00:42:38.320 office? I mean, what name a single achievement, name one thing she's done, which would suggest
00:42:43.980 that she's capable of dismantling Antifa and the trans industry and the LGBT terror cells that are
00:42:49.560 celebrating Charlie's assassination. Let's give me one example. You probably can't because everything
00:42:56.660 Bondi has done has been a monumental failure. She botched the Epstein investigation as well as,
00:43:00.880 as we all know, she claimed the DOJ had uncovered tons of evidence in the FBI's New York field office
00:43:05.420 that incriminated a lot of people and then told us that we can't see any of it because it's too
00:43:09.800 graphic. She claimed she had a client list on her desk and nothing, you know, and then, and then
00:43:13.740 we're told that there was no list. She staged that embarrassing and incomprehensible stunt with the
00:43:17.640 Epstein binders. And now in the wake of Charlie Kirk's murder, she's talking about arresting people for
00:43:22.300 hate speech. And by the way, not that that it's the most important part of her response, but Josh
00:43:28.080 Shapiro's house was not burned down because of hate speech. It was burned down because of a deranged
00:43:32.340 leftist who was upset about Gaza decided to commit an act of domestic terrorism. The burning of Josh
00:43:37.980 Shapiro's mansion was yet another example of left-wing violent extremism. And here's the key
00:43:43.000 point. No one on the right celebrated the attack on Josh Shapiro's residence, not a single person.
00:43:48.020 It wasn't remotely like the response to Charlie's assassination. There's just no comparison here.
00:43:53.700 And while we're at it, the lunatic who killed Melissa Hortman in Minnesota was a Tim Walls appointee,
00:43:58.280 a psychotic who says that Tim Walls hired him to kill her. The guy who hit Paul Pelosi with a hammer
00:44:05.920 lived in a Berkeley commune with BLM signs right out front. These were not right-wing attacks either.
00:44:12.540 And once again, they certainly were not celebrated by the right.
00:44:16.820 But Bondi wants to both sides this whole thing, even though it's abundantly clear that political
00:44:21.260 violence in this country only ever goes one way. And that's not all. When it comes to embarrassing
00:44:25.100 herself, Pam Bondi has been very busy lately. In case you missed it, a couple of Office Depot
00:44:29.840 employees refused to print a sign honoring Charlie Kirk for a memorial service the other day. And
00:44:34.740 they said they wouldn't print the signs. The employees who looked about as grotesque and
00:44:39.960 miserable as you'd expect claimed that the signs were propaganda. Office Depot responded by firing
00:44:45.840 one of the employees and clarifying that the signs were not propaganda and that they could be printed.
00:44:49.920 And here's how Pam Bondi responded to that incident. Watch this.
00:44:54.060 That's horrific. It's free speech, but you shouldn't be employed anywhere if you're going
00:44:57.660 to say that. And employers, you have an obligation to get rid of people. You need to look at people who
00:45:02.060 are saying horrible things and they shouldn't be working with you. Businesses cannot discriminate.
00:45:07.600 If you want to go in and print posters with Charlie's pictures on them for a vigil,
00:45:11.560 you have to let them do that. We can prosecute you for that. I have Harmeet Dillon right now in our
00:45:16.260 civil rights unit looking at that immediately that Office Depot had done that. We're looking
00:45:21.200 at that. Now, to be clear, the Office Depot employees who refuse to print the sign for
00:45:26.580 Charlie's memorial are scumbags, horrible human beings. That doesn't mean that the federal
00:45:32.380 government can force Office Depot to print the signs. That's not the job of the federal
00:45:38.260 government. Just like a Christian baker doesn't have to bake a cake cake, bake a gay wedding cake if
00:45:42.960 he doesn't want to. Office Depot doesn't have to print a sign for a Charlie Kirk memorial if they
00:45:49.580 don't want to. It's possible for people to do horrible things without the federal government
00:45:56.320 getting involved. And most importantly, conservatives have fought for decades with some very significant
00:46:06.900 success to secure the right to refuse service to anyone. We have been beating this drum over and
00:46:15.020 over and over again for years. This is freedom of association. It's freedom of speech. And now
00:46:20.860 Bondi is attempting to unilaterally just roll back all of that after years and years of conservatives
00:46:26.860 very clearly and explicitly saying that businesses have the right to refuse service.
00:46:31.500 Now we have Bondi claiming that in fact they don't. That if you want a flyer printed, you have a right
00:46:38.620 to have it printed and the printing place has no right to not print it. That's what she's claiming
00:46:44.800 and it's total nonsense. It's just nonsense. It's also egregiously unnecessary, okay? The Office Depot issue
00:46:55.380 was already handled by conservatives using our free speech. It's been handled. It's been handled
00:47:05.860 exactly the way that we said these issues should be. What have we been saying for years? For years,
00:47:10.560 we've been saying, well, if a business doesn't want to bake a gay cake, they shouldn't have to. And then
00:47:14.620 the left says, well, what if they refuse service to you? Should they be allowed to do that? Yes,
00:47:18.500 they should. I don't think they should, right? I wouldn't agree with it if they refuse service to
00:47:25.600 me from my political views, but yeah, they should have that right. Well, would you go then complain
00:47:31.080 and tell everyone? Yeah, maybe I would. I mean, then I have the right, if I get refused service,
00:47:35.520 they have the right to do that. I have the right to go and tell everybody that, hey, this company over
00:47:40.820 here, if you're conservative, they hate you. And so you shouldn't support them. I have the right to do
00:47:45.180 that. That is totally, I'm not using force. This is not the government imposing anything.
00:47:50.420 This is them with their own freedom in the free market saying they don't want to serve me. And
00:47:54.040 then it's me with my free speech and my freedom of association telling people that are on my side
00:47:58.160 that, hey, they don't want you. That's how these things should be handled. And also that was always
00:48:07.240 our response when people said, oh, well, if you let them refuse service for a gay wedding, then what
00:48:13.440 happens if, you know, next thing you know, you have a restaurant that says, well, we're not going to
00:48:18.020 serve black people. What is our response been to that? You know, they say, well, should a restaurant
00:48:24.020 be able to serve, refuse service to black people? Yeah, they should. Actually, they should have that
00:48:29.020 right. You should be able to refuse service to anyone. You do not, you should not be compelled by
00:48:35.080 the government to provide service to anybody. It's your company. It's your business. You can do what you
00:48:40.380 want. However, what, what have we always said? It's like, okay, well, first of all, it's not going to
00:48:45.380 happen. Okay. No, no restaurant is going to say we're not going to serve black people. It's not just
00:48:50.380 not going to actually happen. And if it did, that restaurant would be out of business in like 50
00:48:57.560 seconds. Okay. By the end of the day, they'd be out of business because many other people in the free
00:49:03.640 market using their free speech would, would, would be, you know, calling attention to that. And that,
00:49:08.320 that company would be out of business almost immediately. You know, that's how these things
00:49:13.260 would work, which is why you don't need the government stepping in. So you have to, you know,
00:49:16.920 litigating these sorts of issues. Let every company provide service to whoever they want.
00:49:22.740 And then, and then as a society, we'll work that out.
00:49:28.000 And in this case, that's exactly how it went. The company fired the employee.
00:49:31.500 They pledged to print the flyers. The issue was solved. It's over. It's done.
00:49:35.860 We were able to, as conservatives, stick to our freedom of association principles while also
00:49:41.640 getting accountability for the vile person who refused to print the flyers. We won. And now Pam
00:49:46.020 Bondi wants to swoop in after the fact and sabotage everything. And worst of all, she's doing it in the
00:49:53.760 name of Charlie Kirk. Charlie was one of the main proponents of freedom of association and freedom
00:49:59.260 of speech in the country. Charlie abhorred the idea of hate speech laws. Now there have been far too
00:50:05.760 many people in the past week speaking for Charlie, saying what he would or would not want. But in this
00:50:10.940 case, I can say with absolute certainty that Charlie would not want hate speech laws to be created and
00:50:17.700 enforced in his name. He understood the idea that speech isn't illegal just because it's viewed as
00:50:24.380 hateful, whatever that means. But our attorney general, the one person who should understand this
00:50:30.340 concept better than anybody, is as clueless as she's ever been. She stands in the way of our very
00:50:36.140 urgent mission, which is to dismantle left-wing terror cells, left-wing NGOs that threaten our
00:50:41.580 fundamental right to freedom of speech. We need an attorney general who's up to this enormous,
00:50:46.720 gargantuan task which is before us. A serious person who can tackle the challenge with decisiveness
00:50:54.500 and clarity. Pam Bondi is not that person. And that's why Trump has to cut her loose.
00:51:03.460 That's also why she is today canceled. That'll do for the show today. Thanks for watching. Thanks
00:51:08.720 for listening. Talk to you tomorrow. Godspeed.
