00:00:00.000 You're talking about Charlie Kirk.
00:00:01.220 So for you, do you remember where you were
00:00:04.100 when you heard the news that Charlie Kirk was assassinated?
00:00:07.220 I was walking to my office.
00:00:08.800 I was literally walking to my office,
00:00:10.320 and the same person that I just mentioned a second ago, Kim,
00:00:12.780 came running up to me.
00:00:13.480 She goes, Charlie was just shot.
00:00:15.240 And literally, for me, it was deja vu to Butler, right?
00:00:17.380 I mean, it was like I was watching that exact same TV
00:00:20.200 at the exact same time, you know,
00:00:22.480 watching the same thing almost happen to somebody I loved dearly.
00:00:26.040 And I loved Charlie dearly.
00:00:27.040 I mean, Charlie was a dear friend.
00:00:27.880 I was on the stage with him all the time.
00:00:29.120 And, you know, he was an amazing person.
00:00:31.720 In fact, I was just speaking to Erica last night.
00:00:33.960 But no, listen, they want to take away our voice.
00:00:36.740 That was our whole plan, guys.
00:00:38.020 I mean, you know, if you take away the voice,
00:00:40.540 the movement doesn't continue to happen.
00:00:43.280 What actually happened was the exact opposite of that.
00:00:45.840 They thought they could cut the head off of kind of the tiger,
00:00:48.500 but the tiger actually got bigger, and it got stronger,
00:00:51.060 and it got louder, and it went from being a movement of youth
00:00:55.260 in this country to being a movement of everybody
00:00:57.620 all around the world who saw them for not being the tolerant people
00:01:01.940 that they had always claimed to be,
00:01:03.640 saw them for actually being incredibly intolerant,
00:01:06.380 you know, as we've seen over and over and over again.
00:01:08.460 They didn't want me on this stage.
00:01:09.520 You think they want you on that stage?
00:01:10.760 They don't want you on that stage.
00:01:12.280 They don't want any independent voice
00:01:14.020 that can't be controlled using big corporate kind of, you know,
00:01:17.780 they don't want us out there because they can't control you,
00:01:19.940 and they can't control me,
00:01:20.800 and they can't control any of you guys, right?
00:01:23.500 And that's why they take the shots.
00:01:25.400 They call us fascists, yet they dress in black,
00:01:28.280 and they stand on roofs with sniper rifles
00:01:31.220 and shoot over the heads of college kids
00:01:34.080 who are out there, you know,
00:01:36.140 talking about the greatness of America.
00:01:38.360 We're the fascists?
00:01:39.820 It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
00:01:41.120 How do you process today
00:01:44.840 when you're hearing the online narrative, right,
00:01:48.180 where people are sitting there saying,
00:01:49.340 what happened here?
00:01:50.580 Who took him out?
00:01:51.340 All these questions, the shot, you know,
00:01:53.020 you're somebody that's gone hunting before.
00:01:55.240 You know, this doesn't look like an entry wound.
00:01:57.040 It looks like a exit wound where it's the, you know,
00:01:59.500 we've all seen the clip that we don't want to see.
00:02:02.100 How do you process it yourself?
00:02:03.680 We're wanting to get to the bottom of it.
00:02:04.900 Do you think Tyler was the shooter?
00:02:08.100 Listen, here's what I can tell you.
00:02:09.320 I know Dan Bongino.
00:02:10.220 No, I've known Dan Bongino for 20 years.
00:02:12.880 And man, is he a good American, right?
00:02:14.380 And a guy who does not put up with nonsense, right?
00:02:16.540 Like, you know, I've known Cash for a very long time.
00:02:19.620 I've been on the same stage as Cash 1,000 times
00:02:21.840 and Cash has a heart of gold
00:02:22.880 and he's a good American
00:02:24.200 and he does not put up with nonsense, right?
00:02:26.060 It's very different than the last, you know,
00:02:27.560 administration where every single person
00:02:30.060 in the administration was some DEI pick, right?
00:02:32.260 You had Pete Buttigieg who would, you know,
00:02:34.680 run a small town.
00:02:35.480 All of a sudden he happened to be transportation secretary.
00:02:38.220 And, you know, during COVID
00:02:39.260 when none of the ships are coming into our ports
00:02:41.100 and there's no two-by-four at Home Depot,
00:02:44.200 guess what the guy does?
00:02:44.920 He takes paternity leave, right?
00:02:46.180 Like, that's not this administration.
00:02:48.220 It's the exact opposite of who these people are.
00:02:50.560 And so I think I'd be asking probably a lot of questions
00:02:53.220 if I didn't know the individuals
00:02:55.020 at the tip of the spear incredibly well
00:02:57.280 and have tremendous, tremendous faith.
00:03:00.360 I mean, there's a lot of questions
00:03:01.540 that people are asking.
00:03:02.300 There's no question about it.
00:03:04.080 But those guys are the greatest people you'll ever meet.
00:03:08.040 And I'm telling you, if there is funny business,
00:03:09.860 they'll get to the bottom of it
00:03:10.780 and they'll be honest and transparent about it.
00:03:13.340 Yeah, I don't think it's the funny part of it.
00:03:15.940 But do you, like, this is what people are saying.
00:03:18.180 I'm curious how you process it
00:03:19.220 because you probably watch what the market is saying.
00:03:21.160 So the other day we're sitting,
00:03:22.880 we're just doing a regular podcast
00:03:23.960 and then I'm asking the guys a question.
00:03:25.600 I said, so how long did it take for them to,
00:03:27.320 you know, make sure the site's protected
00:03:30.040 so nobody can come in, you can study things,
00:03:32.700 you can see what's going on.
00:03:33.620 Just a couple of days.
00:03:35.440 And you go look at some of the other sites
00:03:36.920 that took place in the past,
00:03:38.040 whether it was an assassination, different events, boom.
00:03:40.520 One month, four weeks, two weeks, three weeks,
00:03:43.100 two months, some of them.
00:03:44.460 So there's a part of it where we're like,
00:03:45.800 this was very quick.
00:03:47.480 And then you hear the school
00:03:48.820 that's doing construction on that site.
00:03:51.380 Everybody online is asking what happened here.
00:03:55.260 Do you yourself, I know you're on the inside,
00:03:57.860 you're part of the family.
00:03:58.600 Do you sit there and say,
00:03:59.740 I'm actually curious to know what happened here.
00:04:01.060 You know, what's kind of interesting about life
00:04:02.920 is a lot of the conspiracy theories, right?
00:04:05.220 They've labeled all of us conspiracy theorists.
00:04:07.520 And then so oftentimes they come true, right?
00:04:09.800 You know, I mean, how often through the course
00:04:12.320 did we say something was bogus
00:04:14.440 and then all of a sudden we were, you know,
00:04:15.900 we were fringed, right?
00:04:17.520 And, you know, and all of a sudden it worked.
00:04:19.240 I mean, like COVID was the greatest example of that.
00:04:21.600 My father went out and said,
00:04:22.540 hey, maybe hydroxychloroquine works.
00:04:24.760 How dare you?
00:04:25.620 How dare you?
00:04:26.560 He's a radical.
00:04:27.180 He doesn't know anything about medicine.
00:04:28.740 Then sure enough, you know,
00:04:29.320 hydroxychloroquine works, right?
00:04:30.400 There's a thousand of those that,
00:04:32.440 you know, I think the greatest thing about us as a party
00:04:35.100 is we're willing to question
00:04:35.980 and we're willing to do so pretty viciously.
00:04:37.960 And we have, and we've been proven right
00:04:39.380 about a lot of things.
00:04:40.820 Again, knowing the corruption of the other side,
00:04:44.300 I would be asking a hell of a lot more questions
00:04:46.020 if I didn't know the people involved,
00:04:47.760 because I'm telling you,
00:04:48.620 Bongino will not lie to the American people.
00:04:50.540 And I'm telling you,
00:04:51.080 Kash Patel will not lie to the American people.
00:04:53.520 And the other thing I'll tell you,
00:04:54.840 Kash was like best friends with Charlie.
00:04:56.300 He knew Charlie extremely well.
00:04:57.860 He knew Charlie as well as I knew Charlie.
00:04:59.820 And you better believe if there was,
00:05:01.660 if there was something off there,
00:05:02.780 he will get to the bottom of it
00:05:03.940 out of respect for a friend
00:05:05.660 who took a bullet to the neck.
00:05:07.120 To a lot of people,
00:05:08.280 there's something fishy going on.
00:05:10.000 And I'm the least conspiratorial person.
00:05:12.520 I'm like, it was the trans loving kid on the roof.
00:05:15.060 Right, right, right.
00:05:16.540 Or maybe not.
00:05:17.220 There was a what?
00:05:17.680 The second shooter.
00:05:18.560 It didn't sound like you were entirely comfortable
00:05:20.420 with the results or the final decision
00:05:23.800 of what happened with your father and Butler.
00:05:25.480 It doesn't sound like you're even 100% comfortable
00:05:27.880 with that decision.
00:05:29.220 What makes you think that we're going to be comfortable
00:05:30.840 with the Charlie Kirk decision?
00:05:32.300 Yeah, well, first of all,
00:05:33.080 the incident when my father happened under Joe Biden.
00:05:37.340 You had a director.
00:05:38.720 You had Kimberly Cheadle.
00:05:39.640 Does everybody remember her?
00:05:40.540 Who was an absolute DEI, incompetent human being
00:05:43.060 who said that the roof was so sloped
00:05:44.680 that the counter sniper teams,
00:05:46.160 and I know these guys, I shoot with them.
00:05:47.700 I've shot with them a lot.
00:05:48.600 I know a bunch of the guys there.
00:05:49.800 Some of the guys over there are good friends of mine.
00:05:51.900 Was too steep.
00:05:53.060 Yeah, her.
00:05:53.540 I mean, show the roof.
00:05:54.160 Show the butler roof.
00:05:55.260 It was like this.
00:05:56.040 She testified to Congress that the roof
00:05:58.220 was too steep to climb over.
00:06:00.000 I mean, it was all BS, guys.
00:06:01.840 Yeah, there it is.
00:06:03.500 And then, by the way,
00:06:04.480 you had these old congressmen and senators
00:06:06.360 who were walking up and down that roof
00:06:07.780 like it was absolutely nothing.
00:06:09.720 My 47-pound daughter could scale that roof
00:06:12.660 without even thinking about it
00:06:14.040 and ride her bike on that roof.
00:06:15.920 And so I think there's a difference
00:06:17.440 between that administration
00:06:18.920 and the trust I had for that administration
00:06:20.780 versus the trust I have for this administration.
00:06:23.120 I mean, this is just an administration
00:06:24.800 that spent their four years
00:06:27.440 weaponizing government
00:06:28.380 against absolutely everything, right?
00:06:31.120 So, you know, and then the fact
00:06:32.560 that they couldn't get into the guy's phone.
00:06:33.800 Give me a break.
00:06:34.580 Like, you know.
00:06:35.600 So I think there's a big difference.
00:06:39.000 I think there's a really big difference.
00:06:40.100 Because of who's there.
00:06:40.880 So for me, what it makes me think about is,
00:06:42.640 let's say Cash is somebody
00:06:44.620 that a lot of people trust, let's just say.
00:06:46.500 Okay, but he's the guy that came in.
00:06:48.260 Fine, he's going to be doing the things.
00:06:49.480 But FBI's got 38,000 employees.
00:06:51.900 And those 38,000 employees, the last four,
00:06:53.520 it's not like Trump was 4-4-8 combined.
00:06:56.240 So there's momentum being built
00:06:57.620 and you're getting rid of people.
00:06:59.180 So yes, Cash is at the top.
00:07:01.280 Bongino's at the top.
00:07:02.500 But those 38,000, how many of the 38,000
00:07:05.060 are for what you're for, what we're for?
00:07:08.180 So somebody can sit there and say,
00:07:09.380 look, I get what you're saying.
00:07:11.280 You know, you've ran an operation for a long time.
00:07:13.740 When we were sitting down,
00:07:14.860 you were telling me about how many people
00:07:16.640 that knew you when you were 12 years old, 10 years old.
00:07:19.560 Now you're there and they respect the fact
00:07:21.780 that you were working with them.
00:07:22.640 Your dad would always bring you on the work side.
00:07:24.320 So you're running a company,
00:07:26.120 you've earned moral authority, right?
00:07:27.660 They've seen how hard you're working
00:07:29.120 and they're comfortable you going in there.
00:07:31.180 Now imagine if all of a sudden I come in
00:07:34.020 and there's a big falling out
00:07:36.240 and we bring a different CEO
00:07:37.720 who can't stand you and your family.
00:07:40.040 Let's just say they buy the company.
00:07:41.120 I'm just making it up.
00:07:42.580 And most of the employees that are there,
00:07:44.580 they're like, who the hell is this guy?
00:07:46.500 We like him.
00:07:47.700 So to a lot of people that are questioning things,
00:07:49.840 they may say, well, look, I get cash,
00:07:52.020 I get Bongino, yes.
00:07:53.960 But what makes us think everybody in there
00:07:57.120 is going to want to get to the bottom of this?
00:07:58.420 Can we trust everybody?
00:07:59.400 I think that's what a lot of people are questioning.
00:08:01.040 Yeah, listen, I think they clearly need
00:08:02.800 to publish a report.
00:08:03.520 I mean, I think there's a lot of good questions
00:08:04.940 that have been answered, right?
00:08:05.780 Without going down a rabbit hole of conspiracy
00:08:07.380 because that's not at all my intention at all.
00:08:09.760 And again, I truly trust the people at the top of that.
00:08:11.900 But, you know, where was the rifle
00:08:13.120 when you jumped off the roof, right?
00:08:14.220 I mean, that's a good question.
00:08:15.100 I'm a very big shooter.
00:08:17.100 I mean, Mausers typically aren't chambered.
00:08:19.300 They're not chambered on 30-06, right?
00:08:20.760 They're normally chambered on an 8-millimeter Mauser.
00:08:22.640 Most of the time, 30-06 is in a stripper clips, right?
00:08:24.660 All of a sudden, they show a picture
00:08:25.620 of a stripper clip with...
00:08:26.880 I mean, you could geek out on a lot of things
00:08:28.480 that didn't feel and seem right, you know?
00:08:31.180 There could be answers to all those things
00:08:32.860 that I'm not aware of.
00:08:34.100 Again, all I know is I trust Bongino wholeheartedly.
00:08:37.780 Has he been on the show with you?
00:08:38.900 He has, yeah.
00:08:39.500 You know, he's a good man.
00:08:41.100 I wouldn't mind talking to Cash, by the way.
00:08:42.500 If you talk to Cash, if Cash is open,
00:08:44.720 I'd love to have a conversation with Cash.
00:08:47.020 Yeah, Cash is a good man.
00:08:48.320 So, listen, I truly do believe
00:08:50.000 that they'll get to the bottom of it.
00:08:51.780 And I think the other thing is out of respect
00:08:53.800 for their mutual friend because Charlie was everybody.
00:08:56.100 I mean, I was watching this press conference.
00:08:57.940 As Cash was up there almost crying,
00:09:00.020 knowing Charlie as well as he did, you know?
00:09:02.640 As, I mean, you want to talk about all worlds
00:09:05.080 coming together as one?
00:09:06.540 Like, these were all your friends.
00:09:07.520 Like, you know, Charlie was my friend who was killed.
00:09:09.360 Cash was up there with my friend
00:09:10.460 who is now investigating
00:09:11.420 and trying to get to the bottom of his friend
00:09:13.680 that was killed.
00:09:14.460 We were all in this fight together, right?
00:09:15.840 I mean, you know, Cash was one of those people
00:09:17.580 that never left our side.
00:09:18.700 You asked the question before,
00:09:19.900 like, who is the person who was there
00:09:22.220 and never left in 2020, 2021 when times got bad?
00:09:26.640 Cash.
00:09:27.160 You know who else?
00:09:28.220 Bongino.
00:09:29.260 And so, no, I trust that those guys
00:09:31.160 are going to do a great job with this.
00:09:32.300 Last question on this before we move on.
00:09:33.920 Hunter, does that look like an entry wound?
00:09:37.520 Guys, it's a high-caliber rifle to, you know,
00:09:39.800 to the neck, right?
00:09:41.020 I mean, I think you hear a lot of people, you know,
00:09:42.560 he was an expert marksman.
00:09:43.580 No, he's not.
00:09:44.100 It's 200-yard shot with high-power rifle, scoped rifle.
00:09:47.560 You know, anybody who's capable of shooting
00:09:50.120 is going to be practically touching bullets
00:09:51.740 at that range.
00:09:52.740 And no one's shooting for the right side of the neck.
00:09:54.800 That's just the honest.
00:09:56.540 But what he did was horrific.
00:09:58.680 I mean, that's obviously all it took.
00:10:00.220 And we lost a great man that day.
00:10:02.160 I lost a great friend that day.
00:10:03.220 And, you know, the nation lost a person who,
00:10:07.560 man, did he make transformational change.
00:10:09.660 He was one of a kind.
00:10:10.660 Yeah.
00:10:11.880 I remember him coming into Trump work.
00:10:14.200 This was 10 years ago.
00:10:15.320 And he sat down at a conference table with me, right?
00:10:17.240 And he goes, I am literally going to change
00:10:19.780 the student body of every college in this country.
00:10:23.400 I'm going to stack them with conservatives.
00:10:25.640 We are going to.
00:10:26.960 And you're sitting there as a guy
00:10:28.000 who does real estate projects.
00:10:29.000 We hear of some BS every single day.
00:10:30.600 And you're saying, this is pretty lofty.
00:10:32.000 I mean, you're going to change the hearts and minds
00:10:33.840 of, you know, the youth of the United States.
00:10:36.780 And he was hell-bent on doing it.
00:10:38.820 And, man, did this guy accomplish exactly
00:10:40.780 what he told me 10 years ago he was going to accomplish.
00:10:43.200 He was an amazing person.
00:10:45.020 And I think Erica, she's a rock.
00:10:46.300 I think she's going to do a hell of a job.
00:10:48.240 And we agree.
00:10:49.540 Charlie Kirk was one of a kind.
00:10:52.000 We're at the event.
00:10:52.780 I'm on stage.
00:10:53.520 Tony Robbins is up there.
00:10:54.820 First shot takes place where he has no idea
00:10:57.600 what's going on.
00:10:58.220 He's in the middle of his speech.
00:10:59.420 There's nearly 8,000 people.
00:11:00.960 Some of you guys were in the room where that took place.
00:11:03.140 And then all of a sudden, I go up.
00:11:04.460 At this point, the report, I don't know if you remember,
00:11:06.880 one of the reports came in that said,
00:11:08.740 there's a pulse he's going to make you.
00:11:10.900 That was kind of on Twitter that was going viral.
00:11:12.660 Like, oh, my God, this is good.
00:11:13.520 And then Vinny comes and tells me.
00:11:14.680 We're like, wait a minute.
00:11:15.240 You've got to be kidding me.
00:11:15.860 No.
00:11:16.620 And then we have to, Tom comes up, gives a prayer.
00:11:19.100 But Charlie was one of one.
00:11:21.560 And a lot of people felt it by how many people show up
00:11:25.380 to the memorial.
00:11:25.820 You've got 65,000 people within a week show up.
00:11:30.640 They said nearly a couple hundred thousand people
00:11:32.300 came to the city.
00:11:33.480 People are trying to go in.
00:11:34.700 There's three hours before the show starts.
00:11:36.260 They're already sending people home.
00:11:37.420 The overflow room is packed.
00:11:39.100 And there was a moment, because everything in that place
00:11:41.400 was very emotional when people are speaking.
00:11:43.360 So we're looking at this book right now.
