Speaker 4: All right, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show. It is June twenty fourth, here at the y Revice Studios in Phoenix, Arizona. Honored to be with you, and boy, we have quite the moment, quite the reaction this morning, the socialist sweep in New York City. Mom Donnie's dsa machine flexing its muscles and portending bad news.
00:01:41
Speaker 5: And Islamo socialists.
00:01:43
Speaker 4: It's an Islamo Marxist takeover of New York City. It is not too crazy of a thing to say that New York City is now a post American city.
00:01:53
Speaker 5: It is American, it's it's the first outpost. Frankly, we should say it European style leftism. Third world is third world. We have We've reported how on Britain they have people running for parliament in Britain whose main issue is Palestine and basically promoting Islamic radicalism. Now we have that in the United States. A state Senate seat in New York elected a person whose platform is basically, I'm going to speak for Palestine, yep. In a state Senate seat in the United States yep.
00:02:25
Speaker 4: So we've got Daria Lisa Avila Chevalier. So she beat incumbent and New York's thirteenth Congressional district Adriano Splat and.
00:02:38
Speaker 5: The chair of the Hispanic the chair of the Hispanic caucus just lost.
00:02:41
Speaker 6: She wants to abolish everything.
00:02:43
Speaker 4: She's a thirty two year old DSA community organizer and pro Palestinian activist. She was one of those ones that led those chaotic Columbia University protests. She founded a group called Quad, which is basically pro Palestine pro DSA. She is a Muslim convert. Okay, She's against all deportations, even for criminal criminals. She wants to seize private property, nationalized industries, wiping her hands on the American flag as violent excrement, and question of Israel has the right to exist.
00:03:23
Speaker 6: That's one.
00:03:24
Speaker 4: She mocked US service members as war criminals and attack Democrats like Joe Biden as rapists. So that's one, right. It's pure radicalism, anti American rhetoric, pro genocide and Gaza talk while dodging full Hamas condemnations. You won't condemn them at all. And she has basically said she hates America because that's one. How about Claire Valdez, she beat Antonio Renoso. So that's another that's New York seventh District Claire Valdez. She's a old DSA union, radical state assembly member, Proud Democrats, socialist labor organizer. She wants to abolish ize, give voting rights and citizenships to all illegals. She wants to fund transgender treatments on taxpayer's dime. She wants to push Medicare for all, kill private insurance. She's all in on taxing the rich to ablivion. By the way, I don't know.
00:04:26
Speaker 5: Which is funny, because well it's funny we say that because that is who is voting for this. If you look at the numbers in New York, the old just traditionally black or Hispanic working class basis of the party are not voting in favor of this. The reason these candidates are winning is young college educated people who've moved to New York and like rich young rich, young and middle aged progressives, far left progressives. That's who's voting for this is one of these districts. I believe the district, the one you were just citing, is the most gentrified district in the United States. So that is what the Democrats who lost are pointing out that this is a result of gentrification. Is not that they're becoming more moderate, it's that it's actually becoming much more willing to vote for what Rob Henderson might call luxury beliefs. That these people who frankly are bigger winners from the US economy than most are voting in favor of radical burden all down socialism.
00:05:25
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is pretty incredible. Brad Lander, New York's tenth beat income at Dan Goldman. Now, I have no love for Dan Goldman. I think he's a douche. But his big sin seems to be that he believes Israel has.
00:05:39
Speaker 6: A right to exist.
00:05:41
Speaker 4: He is a Jew, after all, so it is Brad Landers. So they picked a Jew to beat a Jew, except this Jew doesn't support military to Israel, prioritizes social spending, and aligns with Mom Donnie's machine in a big way. That again Mom Donnie endorsed. This is a Manhattan slash Brooklyn seat. And so you know he's all about the DSA big government handouts, more free stuff, taxing the productive members of society into oblivion, seizing the means of production, the whole, the whole bit. So another triumph of ideology over reality, cozy up with the radicals who think your tax dollars should subsidize failure, lack of productivity, laziness.
00:06:28
Speaker 6: But that's I mean, this is this is the New York right, And we haven't even gotten to Abber.
00:06:36
Speaker 5: That's the state Senate leader. And she's basically actually we have video of her. Let's just let's just play play her in her own words. Let's go for it. This is her talking about nine to eleven twenty two and finding that.
00:06:50
Speaker 7: Like you know, the system of capitalism and racism and white supremacy, et cetera have all and Islamophobia have all been used, you know, to colonized lands, right to take resources from other people. And so this is like a long trajectory and we're just seeing the manifestations of that continuation right with nine to eleven. And so a lot of times when people are asking us to respond about you know, an attack, right when if you look back like historically, right, you know a lot of us come from lands that were colonized, lands where wars are being waged right a lot of times because of US polic here or the policies in Europe. And so I find that we can connect over that, but then also that the idea that we have to apologize for like a terror attack that like a couple of people did, and then there is no apologies or reparations for genocide and for slavery.
00:07:44
Speaker 5: So let's unpack that there. She says that nine to eleven was the result of racism, white supremacy, and capitalism, that there should be no accountability for radical Islam doing nine to eleven unless there's reparations for colonialism. And she threw in slavery there as well. And that's who just won. That is the person running for Senate. If you weren't able to see the video there, we also had an image next to it where she was holding up a green headband. I'm told that is a Hamas fighter headband, like the ones that they would be probably wearing during the ten seven attacks many other terrorist operations. That is now a person headed to a safe seat in the New York State Senate.
00:08:27
Speaker 4: Well an Amber quass Is. Apparently she's born and raised in New York to Palestinian refugee immigrant parents. You could define them as illegals. She's a very proud Democrat socialist community organizer, which is just code for radical Marxist vocal pro Palestinian activist.
00:08:48
Speaker 6: Has you just heard?
00:08:49
Speaker 4: She is the first Palestinian Muslim woman elected to the New York State Senate. She's in the primary at this point, but she's gonna win. So Mom Donnie endorsed Churn heavily. They teamed up on Not on Our Dime campaign to target and tax New York groups supporting Israel. So this is all. I wish I could make any of this up, but I wish this was a joke.
00:09:13
Speaker 5: It's not.
00:09:14
Speaker 6: This is reality.
00:09:15
Speaker 4: This is the first major city being completely colonized by a foreign ideology, largely powered by foreign born naturalized. That means we bless them, We put our hands on them and said, yes, you are part of us now, foreigners that do not represent American values, not the Founders' values, not traditional American values, not Christian values by any means, And we let this happen to us. We let this happen to us. You know, one of the things I often think about is Charlie would always say, we have two roads to choose in front of us. We have Mamdaniism Luigi Maggionism, or we have Maga and the choice is very clear.
00:09:58
Speaker 6: The fork in the road very clear.
00:10:00
Speaker 4: Because when you see what's happening in New York, a place that used to be considered America's best city, most important city, the city that embodied the spirit of America the most, being taken over by a foreign ideology radicals often born in you know, far flung places, you realize that that is a really true thing that Charlie said, Because we have one is going to be some tough medicine, but we're going to get through it. We're going to see the re emergence, the reindustrialization, the greatness of America re emerge. The other is going to be something completely different, in foreign and awful socialist experiments that have been.
00:10:43
Speaker 5: Tried all over the world and in fame everywhere. I mean that is that's really the important combination and why we talked about that socialist Muslim access. It's not that red green it's not even the red green axcess. It's not even that Islam is a particularly socialist religion. In fact, I'd guess a lot of these Muslims are not particularly Muslim. Much like Zoora Mamdani, Zoramamdanni is a guy he'll say in Shallah. He'll say a lot of black bar he'll kind of wear it performatively as an outfit, but he's clearly not a guy who's passionate about the teachings of the Qoran. But what it is is it's essentially a great shorthand way of saying, I am not American in the traditional way. I reject the traditional values of America. I embrace this third world immigrant, anti Western religion. The reason there's a red green axis is they're both just anti West, anti American. Why wouldn't we just team these together. It's a nice blunt way of saying I support the dissolution of Western civilization.
00:11:45
Speaker 4: Well, and by the way, to your point, I think nobody embodies this red green axis more than Chevalier.
00:11:52
Speaker 6: She is a converted Muslim, Okay.
00:11:55
Speaker 5: Reverted as the word they like to use. Everyone's naturally a Muslim. You just have you're a rebellion. A clip of her before she became a Muslim, and she's describing herself that she operates within the lack queer feminist lens. Okay, this is before she converted or whatever. Twenty four we.
00:12:13
Speaker 8: Chose to tackle the issue of permanent exclusion for many reasons. As folks who operate within the black queer feminist lens, we know that the most marginalized should always be the center at the center of our work, and we see this as part of our ongoing work to end broken windows policing, which criminalizes poor communities of color for merely existing.
00:12:31
Speaker 4: Oh you mean it actually criminalizes criminality? Okay, whatever, that crazy person, all right, but this is after she converted twenty.
00:12:38
Speaker 8: One I am. I'm also the only Muslim in my family. I reverted three years ago. Actually met the friend who pushed me to do it, asked me, why have you fasted for four years and yet you haven't take your shahada. When she asked me that, I thought that is a great question, and I thought for myself, why, like why I hadn't taken the step yet. But it was seeing how all of my friends who were showing up to organizing her Muslim were showing up in the space and the grace and love and passion that they had in these spaces of social justice that really pushed me to join the faith and wanting to make sure that we are reflecting that in that I'm reflecting that in every space that I'm in and that you know, in shall love, we make it to Congress that we're reflecting that in the halls of power as well.
00:13:29
Speaker 5: In that's that's how it is. It's first she has the black, queer, feminist lens. That's a way of saying, I'm not with the program that has traditionally made America successful. Reject America. And now she can go a different way. She can don the hit job. She can say, actually, Muhammad via the warlord who married a six year old, he had it the right way, and that's the new cause. I'm going by the way.
00:13:53
Speaker 4: Any buddy that is against colonialism, whatever the hell that is, and then converts to Islam like they were the original colonialists. I mean, look at their conquering history throughout Northern Africa, the Middle East, southern Europe, just saying a little bit of a hippocratic gustry.
00:14:14
Speaker 5: In fact, that they're basically just colonizing America today because there are fifty five fifty six Muslim majority countries out there and none of them are really worth living in.
00:14:23
Speaker 4: It turns out they are the actual colonialist and they're trying to conquer the West. They don't make any ifsands or butts about it, they don't try and hide that. They say it out loud. They say they're gonna outbreed us. They're going to run for office, they're going to be in positions of power, they're going to bring over their family members, and they're gonna keep coming an endless stream of foreigners with foreign ideology, a foreign conquering cult religion. That's the plan. And anybody who's not telling you that is lying to you. Anybody who's not telling you that is being politically correct, they're being cowards. Charlie talked about it extensive, probably the and I.
00:15:02
Speaker 5: Would you agree?
00:15:03
Speaker 4: Would you agree the most the thing he talked about the most in the last year was Islam, and he warned about it, and we should heed his warning.
00:15:11
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:15:11
Speaker 1: Play the clip of clip forty and people say, I like a mom Donnie because he's authentic, but authentic to what and what is he aiming towards. He's aiming towards a devolution.
00:15:22
Speaker 6: It's bad either way.
00:15:23
Speaker 1: By the way, if he eats with his rice with his hands, whether he means it or not, he's either authentically gross or he's being a fake, disgusting person. And In some of the comments of a TikTok video I made, people say, but Charlie, who are you to judge other cultures?
00:15:35
Speaker 9: No, no, no, no, that's the point.
00:15:37
Speaker 1: We in Western culture believe that our way of life is the best. We're better than Mohammedism. We don't do female general mutilation. Well, I guess the trans people do, but we don't do female general mutilation. We in the West don't have child marriages. We don't believe in honor killings, we don't believe in polygamy. We believe in American exceptionalism. We believe our culture is better. You see in the world, Happiness is the goal, Feelings are the guide. Judgment is the ultimate sin, and God is the ultimate guest. And let me say that again. Judgment is the ultimate sin. You're not allowed to judge others. Guess what I'm gonna judge you. If you rise with your hands, that's bad, that's wrong. Assimilation is a necessity, not a suggestion.
00:16:22
Speaker 4: If you're about to turn sixty five and you're already on medicare, this message is for you. Charlie cared about America seniors. He was outraged that so many were paying too much for their Medicare coverage and getting less than they deserved in return. That's why he partnered with Chapter, and we're still partnered with Chapter. Chapters licensed advisors search every Medicare plan to find what's actually best for you. The call is one hundred percent free, no pressure, just honest help. Seniors save an average of eleven hundred dollars a year. With Chapter, They've already helped hundreds of our listeners enroll in better plans, and they can help you too. So if you're nearing sixty five or already on Medicare, make the call today now pound two fifty, pound two fifty and say Charlie Kirk to make sure you're in the best available plan. That's pound two fifty and say Charlie Kirk. Or go to ask Chapter dot org slash Kirk. All right, So, Jeremy carl he's the author of Protected Class, He's the Unprotected Unprotected Class and a fellow at Claremont, which we love. So Jeremy, welcome back to the show, my friend. Good to see you there. You know I'm jealous because you are far removed from the stench of New York City in your undisclosed location in a beautiful state that I'm jealous of.
00:17:43
Speaker 6: But nevertheless, you have been opining on this.
00:17:46
Speaker 4: You you despise Mom, Donnie, but you are giving some begrudging respect. Explain yourself, Jeremy carl.
00:17:53
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, I think he's a formidable politician and he did which I can just appreciate as a as an advocate, something that's just incredibly rare in politics, which is he both had the perceptiveness to kind of know where he could get wins, and then he had the boldness to push for those wins even if he made a bunch of power brokers in his own party happy. And I mean, obviously I hate the radical ideology that he is expounding, but I think he gets a great deal of credit for kind of understanding where the movement in his party is going.
00:18:26
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I think you're right.
00:18:27
Speaker 4: And I want to just use that as a jumping off point here for something Charlie said. We played another Charlie clip, but he was so prescient on these issues. I want to play thirty nine.
00:18:39
Speaker 1: Look, you got two options. You can go Maga or Maggionism. You can go Maga or you can go Mamdaniism. You can go Maga or you can know Muhammedism. It's very funny how all the ms MAGA is the only option on the right. Neo conservatives are not coming back the corporate oligarchs. We're not gonna let happen. So MAGA has cemented the worldview of the American right, but the left we don't. No. It could go Maggioni, which is the most extreme. You could go Mamdanni, which is very very extreme, or you go Mohammedi Mohammedism, which is just you know, Muslim Islamic takeover. You get reform or you get revolution. We havet Magawana reform stuff political undercurrent underneath Maggioni that cannot be ignored, that should not be dismissed, and that political reality is that is on the American left.
00:19:28
Speaker 4: Does seem like our future has a fork in the road and we get to choose reform or revolution. Mam Donni is a force for revolution in a very very serious way. And so while I agree with you, I had given begrudging respect. It's also terrifying. But do you think as well, Jeremy, that it is terrifying for the Democrat Party in some way?
00:19:49
Speaker 10: Oh, I think absolutely I mean they've been sort of pushing the elites, the quote unquote intellectual elits the Democrat Party this abundance liberalism idea, which is this kind of techno wonkery. And then we actually had an election and know it was really just about who could hate Israel the most. I mean that's what really determined in all three of these elections in many ways. I mean there were other issues at part Now. I mean that's totally crazy, right, because Israel should not be the central issue for anybody pro orcon in America, but it's sort of indicative of some of the radicalism that has overtaken the party. That kind of that was probably the central issue in all three of these races.
00:20:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that is I mean you mentioned in your tweet that APAC anything to do with that. Dan Goldman was i think denied service at and Dan Goldman is no you know establishment that the guy is a radical and he's a total douche. I mean, he's easily a very hateable person. And yet this guy who has been like a dog with a bone trying to get Trump for however many years, even that's not enough anymore. They want seizure of the ass the means of production. They want anti ice, abolish ice, abolish the police.
00:21:05
Speaker 6: They want all of that stuff.
00:21:07
Speaker 4: And if you're not going full commie, you're basically unelectable now in some of these districts.
00:21:13
Speaker 6: In New York.
00:21:14
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I want to As you said, Mamdanni is politically savvy, canny, talented. Axios has been interviewing Democrats in the House and they're they're being almost as apocalyptic about this as we are. A centrist Democrat, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the results were an earthquake and a huge defeat for democratic leadership. It was a tough night. People who do not support the DSA, they're wringing their hands at cocktail parties. The DSA is organizing. I feel like democrats in Washington are realizing their brand of the party is dying. And while that's a little satisfying to see, it's also scary, Jeremy, because we have gotten by on there being democrats who they like holding power, they like not killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, and now we have we have to deal with radical socialists who might blow up the whole country. And if you think that's impossible. Go look at Britain.
00:22:07
Speaker 10: Yeah, no, absolutely, Blake. And I think one of the interesting things, right, it's not just in New York City. We're seeing it most dramatically there, But we've literally got a situation in in Los Angeles now where the choice for mayor is between somebody who is literally kind of working in Castro aligned brigades back in the day, and that's the more moderate choice versus the absolute socialist. And you know, I think Brandon Johnson, the mayor of Chicago, I mean, he doesn't call himself a socialist, but he might as well be. So these people are radical at every single respect. Seattle absolutely the same thing. And I think the business communities that have sort of aligned with the Democrat Party have got to be having a little bit of buyers from worse at this point.
00:22:53
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:22:53
Speaker 4: I mean it's been very interesting watching the more establishment dem reaction to this, and I think it's going in one of two ways.
00:23:02
Speaker 6: There.
00:23:03
Speaker 4: You know, you got Joe Scarborough who's in complete denihalism cut twenty eight.
00:23:07
Speaker 11: I believe the Democratic Party over all, he's going too hard left. I believe there is anti semitism in there. We'll save that for another day. But I believe this is a branding issue for the Democrats that they are going to have to answer for.
00:23:19
Speaker 12: So this will agree to this.
00:23:21
Speaker 3: It's obvious a challenge. It's obviously going to be a challenge.
00:23:24
Speaker 4: Obviously he's saying, oh, well, with Democrats, is elected a moderate like Spamberger. It's Spamburger when you never go full Virginia, you never go full Virginia. She's no moderate, I mean anyways, so that's interesting. Then you've got the other reaction, which is like Corey.
00:23:42
Speaker 6: Booker, which he's trying to say, oh, it's a good thing. We're a big ten party. Top thirty.
00:23:47
Speaker 10: What did you make of your fellow Democratic Senator John Fetterman today when he was asked about these New York primaries, he said, the dirtbag left is right is surging.
00:23:55
Speaker 13: I believe this is how he described it.
00:23:59
Speaker 2: Again for me, if you want to heal country, you can't be picking fights. I think we need to understand that our party is not homogeneous. One of the things to make the Democratic Party great is it's a big ten party. We need to stay that.
00:24:13
Speaker 4: Way, right, Okay, So it's various forms of denialism. If we're being honest about it. But Jeremy, I'm gonna play one more clip and get your reaction to it. This is CNN's Harry Enton talking about how much more popular DSA is over Dems in Congress twenty nine.
00:24:29
Speaker 12: The Democratic Socialists of America have a higher net favor any than the Democratic Party does, at least those who are members of Congress.
00:24:36
Speaker 3: I mean, just take a look here.
00:24:38
Speaker 12: Dem Socialists of America plus seventeen points, Democrats in Congress plus four points. No wonder that dem Socialists are getting nominated across the political map in different primaries because simply put, they are more popular than the Democrats currently in charge. Matchup socialism capitalism among Democrats, you go back sixteen years ago twenty ten, capitalism and socialism right there favorwele riting fifty fifty percent.
00:25:01
Speaker 3: Look at it now, socialism clearly in the lead.
00:25:04
Speaker 12: Among Democrats. Sixty six percent of them use socialism favorably, just forty two percent new capitalism favorably. No wonder, Mom, Donnie had no problem blasting it.
00:25:12
Speaker 4: I think that clip is interesting, Jeremy, because it gets to root causes, and we have to be honest about the fact that for a lot of people and people on the right.
00:25:23
Speaker 6: Field this as well.
00:25:24
Speaker 4: They feel like the system is not working, and so the question to you is what is driving this?
00:25:32
Speaker 10: Well, I think it's a lot of things right, and I wrote about the centrality of immigration here, even though I think just like a lot of revolutionary vanguards, and you go back to the communist Chinese, it was the same way. It's you know, elites who are maybe not from the peasantry so called lead the revolution, but you can't do the revolution without that kind of mass base of immigrants. If you look at mom Donnie in his election, he was overwhelmingly supported by people who were not born in America, and he lost the votes of people born in America. I think you're probably going to see a lot of the same things if we get good exit poles from here.
00:26:10
Speaker 3: So that's some of it.
00:26:12
Speaker 10: The opportunity is an issue, But of course every single thing the Democratic Socialists want to do is simply going to make that a much worse situation than it already is. So they don't have any solutions. I think the GOP has solutions. We need to be a little bit more aggressive about pushing it. We need to be more aggressive about reaching out to young people. Charlie did an amazing interview, actually, I think a discussion ironically with Tucker I think maybe about just a few weeks before he died. I'm sure you guys remember it, where he really talked about the centrality of young people in their issues and how everybody was sleeping on this as an issue, and how he had really been trying to make this put front and center for the administration. And I just hope that message is getting out.
00:26:58
Speaker 4: Yeah, And that's kind of where I was going with this to Jeremy. I think there is a obviously we hate this radical leftism. It will destroy the country. It is a ticking time bomb. But we have to as conservatives also look in the mirror and say we were given a mandate in twenty twenty four and can we honestly say that we've delivered on it. I don't think we can, and that's a big problem. This is what's crazy, Jeremy. I'm about to I'm about to play this clip of these activists, these DSA activists threatening Hakeem Jeffries Job saying your next play cup forty one.
00:27:45
Speaker 1: Is a good command.
00:27:48
Speaker 6: Wow.
00:27:49
Speaker 4: I mean again, Hakeem Jeffries is no is no moderate. I just here's what I think is happening. Jeremy is both the GOP in Washington underestimates how radicalized we've become actually, and the Democrats in Washington have have underappreciated just how radical their bases become.
00:28:12
Speaker 6: What's your take, No.
00:28:14
Speaker 10: I absolutely agree with that, and I think not just to Keem, Jeffries has got to be very worried looking at some of the things that you're just showing, like that video. But I think Chuck Schumer, who's going to be seventy eight in twenty twenty eight, when he's up for reelection and staring down a potential primary versus AOC, he's got to be looking at all this and kind of wondering, again, as somebody who moderate establishment, very pro Israel, you know, does he want to end his career in ignominious defeat in a primary. Because I've got to be honest, you know, that's probably where this is heading, given where his party is. So, you know, I think there's a lot of people who are going to be looking over their shoulder, particular on issues of APAC but also on issues like affordability, universal health care. You know and control all these sorts of things the Democratic Socialists are campaigning on, and or maybe not all in the complete mainstream of the Democratic Party.
00:29:15
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this has been a wake up call for me. I've already been navocating for an immigration moratorium and I will not stop doing it. We needed an immigration moratorium twenty years ago, we needed it forty years ago. And the chickens are coming home to roost and you write about it brilliantly in Unprotected Class. What is the racial dynamic of this, Jeremy. I know you've caught a bunch of heat for this, but you've also been a truth teller and I so respect you for that. But it really is becoming a situation where they don't like white people. They're pretty open about it. They certainly don't like Jews, but they don't like white people either.
00:29:55
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:29:55
Speaker 3: No, that's right.
00:29:56
Speaker 10: And a lot of this is really downstream of that, whether it's set explicitly or not. And we've talked and everybody's talking about the three congress people for good reason. But there were also six Democratic Socialists who won the New York Legislature yesterday, at least six, maybe even a seventh. Pretty all but one minorities all from immigrant backgrounds. In fact, several of them involved as immigration attorneys or whatever. There is a huge immigration element of this. There is a huge ethnic element and racial element of this. There's a huge anti white element that is lurking just below the surface. And I think one of the things that will be interesting is as some of these guys have to get out of their districts and explain some of their quotes to the broader electorate. I think a lot of normy Republicans or even Norman independents are going to be kind of shocked by what some of these democratic socialists have been saying.
00:30:52
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I'm actually just looking here. We're having John Doyle on later in the show, and he just pointed out a few minutes ago, you just look at the poll of the shift the Democrats in twenty ten when people were screaming about socialism then, but Democrats were fifty to fifty then on socialism versus capitalism. They had about yeah, and now it's just everything is a mess. It's like and if they just say he says, everyone thought we could just read marks or something and we could debunk this with debate and it's much more important now that we recognize they are just sold this narrative because of mass immigration, that say, the reason your own, your old countries weren't nice is because of white people.
00:31:32
Speaker 6: Yep.
00:31:33
Speaker 5: And now if you vote for this, and we'll call it socialism, but we could call it any number of things. We'll take their stuff and we'll give it to you, yep. And like that's really what's appealing in New York.
00:31:41
Speaker 4: Well, and listen, how listen how Hassan Piker sells this. This is what's crazy, how they launder these very violent ideologies. I mean, because eventually, when you want to seize the means of production and you want to kick out landlords and give it, you know to poor people I guess or whatever, some of them are not going to put up with that, and it becomes violent. This is the classic cycle that we see with the socialist revolutions, these takeovers.
00:32:05
Speaker 6: And yet this is what this is what Hassan Piker says. It just sounds so reasonable, right twenty six?
00:32:10
Speaker 3: How wish they stop calling me a terrorist? That's what I wish. I wish they stop calling me a radical. None of these people are radical. They just want healthcare. They want to American militarism.
00:32:23
Speaker 2: They want to spend money on roads, on infrastructure, fun schooling, on healthcare rather than bombs oversea.
00:32:31
Speaker 4: They're not radicals, Jeremy. They just want healthcare, they just want roads. They just want to stop carpet bombing foreign countries, which you know enough.
00:32:40
Speaker 5: If they don't want to be called terrorists, they should stop cheering for people who who fly hang gliders into concerts to murder people, which they do. They should stop waving Hamas head bands, which they do. We're having someone going to the New York Senate who waves a Hamas head band. They like that. They like Hamas because they like to imagine Hamas doing Hamas things to people in America.
00:32:59
Speaker 10: No, that's how absolutely right. And I think you know, one of the interesting things I think you guys were getting at just a little bit earlier that's important is that when we talk about socialism, that's kind of an airy ideology. It can mean a lot, but when you kind of get down to it, it is we want to take the stuff of the people.
00:33:15
Speaker 9: Who have it. Well, if you're new to.
00:33:17
Speaker 10: This country and you're typically not white, you don't necessarily have it. And the people who have it tend to be older and whiter. That's not a coincidence. In many ways, socialism is kind of just a coverall here for anti whiteness, for anti white rhetoric. There are degrees to which it's just bad for socialism too. And again, if you look at that sixty six percent approval for socialism, look at what that number would be for Democrats under forty. I bet it's closer to eighty percent. So that's where the center of gravity of the Democrat party is. And some people who are sort of sitting in the on the fence right now are going to have to make some choices.
00:33:56
Speaker 3: And you alluded to.
00:33:57
Speaker 10: This earlier, you know, is it maga or is it?
00:34:01
Speaker 14: Is it political Islam? Is it socialism? Is it mom Dnism? Is it Mangionism? Because those are really the choices on offer. It's not this imaginary abundance agenda that the Democrats are pushing.
00:34:14
Speaker 5: We have to take it seriously. America was blessed as bad as Democrats could be. We were blessed for a long time that we didn't have a major truly socialist party. If you go back to about World War two, America and Britain were similarly rich, and now we're way ahead of Britain. Why did that happen Because Britain had a real socialist party that did socialism ruined their economy for two decades. We got way ahead of them. We used to be tied with a lot of Western Europe around the time of the Great Recession. Now we're fifty percent. We're way ahead of them. All these World Cup guests are noticing how rich America is. Why are we so much richer than Europe. We don't have socialism ruining our growth rates. That actually socialism sucks, as Charlie.
00:34:53
Speaker 4: And by the way, New York has been falling on hard times, the more socialists it's become. You know that forty two percent of New York residents are on Medicaid, one in five are on food stamps, one and three live in rent stabilized apartments.
00:35:04
Speaker 5: One in native of their jobs are those fake medicaid homeworkers.
00:35:07
Speaker 4: And that's what happens. Once you get in, it just becomes the spiral deeper and deeper. Jeremy carl thank you, my friend, good to see you.
00:35:14
Speaker 3: Thanks so much for having me.

We have the one, the only Citizen Kane from Citizen Free Press joining us to get a vibe check of the base.
00:36:58
Speaker 6: Caine. Welcome back, my friend. How are you?
00:37:00
Speaker 3: I'm done good.
00:37:01
Speaker 15: I was just on the other line with Students for Justice in Palestine.
00:37:05
Speaker 6: Oh, I want to do it? What did you learn?
00:37:10
Speaker 3: Pure sarcasm. But that's what it feels, you know.
00:37:12
Speaker 15: I never have time to watch or opening segment, but I did today. I watched the full first hour, and that's what it feels like to me. It feels like SJP all grown up, like all the freaky crazy people from Yeah, they were on. I mean even when I went to college thirty five forty years ago, they were around.
00:37:30
Speaker 3: You know.
00:37:30
Speaker 6: Yeah, Well, listen.
00:37:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, as Charlie said all the time, he said, what happens on campus doesn't stay on campus. It goes and it spreads into the halls of Congress, into corporate boardrooms all across the country. So, yeah, they are coming. The march is coming. The Long March to the Institutions was remarkably successful.
00:37:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were practicing. It was like college they were.
00:37:52
Speaker 15: I mean, these people were heavily, heavily involved in college government everywhere. It doesn't matter if you went to the University of Virginia like I did, or Dartmouth or University of Washington like they were everywhere, and they were practicing, they were cost playing, and I don't know, I didn't pay attention to them. I did student government my first year at UVA, and then I just could not standal excuse me, I could not handle the like, the egos of these people that took themselves so seriously on these incredibly stupid issues.
00:38:17
Speaker 3: Stupid social issues. But anyway, they took themselves seriously and they never stopped.
00:38:21
Speaker 15: And then now they're winning elections in New York City.
00:38:25
Speaker 3: So it was a pretty crazy night.
00:38:27
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, look at this one of the I mean this is not why we had you on, but it is still very Newsworthy said, we are Westerners fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization. That we seek community and instruction from militants in the global South who have been on the front lines of the fight against tyranny and domination which undergird the imperialist world order. I mean, these people have been completely and utterly ideologically captured, and they have zero gratitude for the blessings of living in the United States, which affords them the luxury to have such retarded views.
00:39:03
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:39:03
Speaker 15: That, I mean, your last point is the really good one. And that's if I ever really I don't, you know, I'm stuck in headquarters here, so I never get to interact with these kind of people, But that your last point is what I'd want to talk to them about. It is like, Hey, does it ever occur to you that you're only able to say these things and have these things because of, you know, because of the special, special conditions that exist here in the United States. And Yeah, there's it's there. They're one hundred percent captured. It's uh, it's whatever. They never shut it off, like it's it. This is like, this is who they are. So look, it immediately makes me think of midterms, right, and how do we defeat this?
00:39:41
Speaker 3: You know, is this really just New York City or is it other places?
00:39:44
Speaker 15: Obviously we're seeing in Los Angeles, So I immediately I think of midterms and I think of turnout, right, that that's really all this is going to be about. If we get crazy turnout, we can still we can still. So anyway, well, I try to be positive.
00:39:56
Speaker 4: I want to let's talk about turnout, because that's where I was going to go as well. So I mentioned it briefly with Jeremy Carl But we have to look in the mirror as conservatives and ask ourselves a question, did we deliver on the promises of twenty twenty four? And I think for a lot of people that answer is no. Right, But there's some signs of hope. And I texted you, Caine, I said, how's the base vibe? How's everything going? And you said, based on the Iran potential peace deal with Iran, things were looking up. The base was loving it, right. And now you've got President Trump this morning who just said, hey, I'm not going to sign this housing.
00:40:29
Speaker 6: Bill, which probably is popular.
00:40:31
Speaker 4: It's something we care about, right, but I'm not going to do it unless the leadership within the Senate actually gets serious about the Save America And.
00:40:37
Speaker 5: I said, he says, I am canceling signing of it until we passed the Desperately Need to Save America Act, which I consider to be a national emergency.
00:40:46
Speaker 6: Yeah, thank you for your attention.
00:40:47
Speaker 4: And I, by the way, I got feedback instantly from some of these staffers with these senators, and they're all loving this. They love that he's playing hardball. Multiple people sent me text going like, we couldn't have imagined he would take it this far.
00:41:00
Speaker 6: We're so excited.
00:41:01
Speaker 4: This is going to be a huge shot across the bow for Senate leadership. Tell us what the base wants?
00:41:06
Speaker 15: Here came Well, so you started this off by saying, is you know, is it that the promises that were made in twenty twenty four do we not fulfill them? And is that part of the reason that we lost last night? And here's my theory on that. Sure, maybe we did, we didn't deliver on everything, or we haven't yet, But I don't believe that's it. I really truly believe that these elections are decided by the independence right, I really, you know, and that's why I tend to post those whenever we get new numbers on independence. So I feel like this is where the media is killing us. The media they did this after twenty sixteen, and they're doing it again now, where they completely you know, turn everything about Trump and about the American First Movement into into something evil and they convince and you've seen the numbers, and they convince Independence not to vote Republican. So just on that little point, I'm not social. I don't really think it's promises not kept. I really think it's just the media is killing us and turning independence against us.
00:42:02
Speaker 3: Now back to how the base feels the vibe. You're right about Iran.
00:42:05
Speaker 15: You know, look, I've got a wide you know, every It's not just me at Citizen Free Press, but everywhere in the Republican Party. There's all kinds of different views on the Iran war. And so yeah, there are people who say, why are we even negotiating with them?
00:42:19
Speaker 3: You need to you know, continue to bomb them.
00:42:22
Speaker 15: I've got other people saying, no, this is a good thing, but maybe let's try not to fund them too much or at least help help them get these reconstruction funds. But the overall vibe is positive. Yes, I mean I noticed, for example, you guys didn't even talk about it in the first hour of the show. So that's a good sign. Right, we aren't even talking about the Iron War. So hopefully Vance and the team Wick, Cooff and Kushner they can, you know, we can get the things we want, and hopefully, you know, I mean, look if, for example, the thing that freaks people out the most, I believe about all of this are the billions that are talked about, right, and so that three hundred billion dollar fund. I heard someone talking about it, and I want to point out this is gonna be probably money from the Gulf Nations, and it's these are going to be loans even from them, that are going to be backed by oil revenues future oil revenues. So even if US dollars we're not going to be involved in this, or even if US dollars were going to.
00:43:13
Speaker 3: Be involved, we're we're gonna get our money back.
00:43:16
Speaker 15: So I want people that, you know, I put those headlines up a lot about the billions involved in you know, and I want to make sure people understand that, you know, Trump and Vans are on this.
00:43:25
Speaker 3: So back to the vibe. The vibe is good, man. We just got to it's buckled down time for the midterms. If we if we somehow come up with the theme that these are the most.
00:43:33
Speaker 15: Important midterms of our lives, and Trump and Susie Wilds and everybody gets involved, I feel like that's our only way.
00:43:39
Speaker 3: So I'm hoping we can have some crazy momentum.
00:43:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, and to underscore your point, I mean, check out the polymarket odds. We're not paid by them or anything like that, but I do think it's interesting that polymarket odds for jd Vance becoming the nominee in twenty twenty eight shot up instantly as soon as he started negotiating this piece deal. I mean that is that a fan telltale sign We've talked Kane about.
00:44:03
Speaker 5: Is there a split between D C where I think DC has the people who are certainly most enthusiastic about war, but also most they're most worried about the idea that if America is spending taxpayer dollars on this, or if we do look like we're getting the bad end of the deal. Whereas my senses in a lot of America, they really do just they want peace. They will like it if JD. Vance is associated with the peace deal. They want out, They want the war to be over, and they don't care nearly as much about what the details are.
00:44:33
Speaker 15: Yeah, I agree with that. And Vance just looks so damn presidential. He you know, he was out there. I couldn't believe. Look when you're like me and you watch somebody's media performances all day, right from morning till night and see all the different shows that he's doing, it's just stunning to me that he can hold it together at the end of the night.
00:44:49
Speaker 3: And he did it for like forty eight hours straight and he.
00:44:52
Speaker 15: Was always good, and he was and he was smiling with joy they are, which was just astonishing to me.
00:44:58
Speaker 4: And that's the real miracle, Caine, that's the real a miracle really. And by the way, Kane Caine, look at this. Gas prices below seventy dollars right now. Throw that ground price, oil price seven dollars gallon. Coil price is below seventy all right, Caine. A little bit of a curveball here, A little bit of a curveball. I know you're a big sports ball fan. You enjoy the sports we've got euros from overseas apologizing to Americans right now, this is a true thing. They say we were wrong. We are seeing your country with fresh eyes, and they're helping us see our country with fresh eyes. America rocks, America rocks. It turns out we're not poor like the UK. We actually have capitalism, so they're seeing that with their own eyes. We've got the Knicks winning their first championship since nineteen seventy three. We've got baseball hats causing controversy with the LGBT. It is Pride month, after all. Actually it's Nuclear family month. Cain, are you just enjoying this sports ball summer like the rest of us?
00:45:57
Speaker 6: You have C two to fifty.
00:45:59
Speaker 15: Yeah, yes, Yet I'm enjoying the summer, my own sportsball summer too.
00:46:06
Speaker 3: I'll get to the professionals.
00:46:07
Speaker 15: But you know, some might call me a golf professional that was never able to completely dedicate his.
00:46:15
Speaker 3: Life to the task.
00:46:15
Speaker 15: So I've I've been able to golf a bit myself on weekends.
00:46:21
Speaker 3: The next thing, you know, mixed feelings.
00:46:24
Speaker 15: Because I grew up, obviously in the heartland of basketball in the Hoosier State, and so I've been a Pacers fan, and I remember, and Reggie Miller was doing the games, yeah, and so I remember.
00:46:35
Speaker 3: Uh whatever.
00:46:37
Speaker 15: So it's like Patrick Ewing and John Starts and all those all those Knicks guys that were villains for me.
00:46:43
Speaker 3: But I was happy, you know whatever.
00:46:45
Speaker 15: It's mixed feelings, like I wanted to make fun of them for their celebrations and the fights and the brawls, and I.
00:46:51
Speaker 3: Wanted to bring him down, but I was happy they won.
00:46:53
Speaker 15: An og Annobi, he's he played for Indiana University. He played for Tom Crean recruited that guy. He was a two star recruit. You'll be interested in this, both of you. He was a two star recruit out of out of Missouri and he came comes to IU in six seven, two fifteen, and he could guard. He could guard the five, and he could guard once. He could, you know. And so he only lasted two years at IU and then was drafted by UH Toronto and then anyways, I was happy for og Anenobi.
00:47:21
Speaker 3: As far as baseball, I'm a Cubs guy.
00:47:25
Speaker 5: But the other day didn't they what say, they had a big comeback the other day they scored eight runs or something in the eighth something like that.
00:47:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, the Cubs are either hot or they're cold. Don't get Danny started on the Cubs.
00:47:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well I know Charlie loved him. They were my whole life.
00:47:41
Speaker 15: My first game I was like age four at Wrigley Field. But at the same time, my favorite player in baseball is Kyle Schwarber, Mister America, Kyle Schwarber. And it's because when he was twenty one and he was a baseball player at IU, I was golfing at the IU course in the summer and he joined us at the turn. So I golfed with them from hole ten to eighteen. And as you know, Schwarber's like five eleven and a half two thirty. He was a middle linebacker in Ohio play. You know, played in middle and and the dude is just all hips and pelvis and he could.
00:48:13
Speaker 3: It was just insane. So anyway, it is such a stress.
00:48:15
Speaker 4: The guy was like, I can hit a baseball five hundred feet.
00:48:18
Speaker 6: It's just insane.
00:48:19
Speaker 4: He's gonna be He's gonna be the backup d H in the All Star Game. By the way, because Shoe O Tony's got like two point five million votes, he's the top vote game. But he he could make you could make a case that he should be starting. Okay, hold on, I have I have to pivot back. I have to I have to pivot back here, Kane, because we only got three minutes left. Danny is telling me that a lot of emails that we're getting are a bit negative on Vance.
00:48:41
Speaker 5: They want Rubio there, they're pro Rubio and they're pro their pro war generally a lot.
00:48:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, So it tends to be a certain part of the audience that reacts this way. What is your vibe on Vance Rubio and how does the how does the bass feel about Vance, especially on the with the backdrop of these Iranian peace talks.
00:49:00
Speaker 3: It's to me it's a dream team. I want them together.
00:49:03
Speaker 15: But it's interesting that you ask that because there have been battles in the open Thread and CFP about this.
00:49:08
Speaker 3: Half the crowd just loves.
00:49:09
Speaker 15: Vance and thinks that Jade excuse me, thinks that Rubio doesn't quite have it. And then there's the other side that thinks that the Advance doesn't have the charisma and that Rubio's got it all.
00:49:19
Speaker 3: I think they both.
00:49:20
Speaker 15: Have the charisma, they both have the riz, as the kids say, and I think they both can be president, and I don't know how they decided between them. I feel like you got to be deferential, Like you ended up secretary of State. You weren't chosen as the VP, so you're gonna have to be the VP when JD runs. And I really that's what I mean. Personally, I want j D at the top of the ticket and Marco right beneath him. But in terms of like sort of emails and the pro I have that sort of pro bomb, pro war crowd.
00:49:49
Speaker 3: Like they want to finish off run.
00:49:50
Speaker 15: I never really associated that with Rubio so much, but obviously we do know those of us who are junkies. We do know that Vance was against the war from the beginning. So maybe that's why the pro war crowd, you know, feels more aligned with Rubio. But but hey, for me, I want him both on that ticket. I think they would be fantastic. And Rubio is young, like he'll he won't even be sixty if he served as vice president for eight years under Vance, So that's the way I would do it.
00:50:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, the and I will tell you Charlie did put out one tweet he said, I will remember it.
00:50:23
Speaker 6: I remember it well, but it.
00:50:24
Speaker 4: Was like Vance, Rubio, I'm gonna give myself one minute to just daydream about how great a ticket that would be. And then he was like, okay, onward, enough of that. You know, we got work to do. But it was a you know, Charlie was supportive of that ticket too, and a little bit inside baseball, you know, for those who are curious, what I have been told and these things change. Rubio's allowed to make up his mind and change his mind as time goes on. Is that he did not like running for president. Now, fair enough, he was running against Donald Trump. Who would like running against Donald Trump? You know, calling him little little Marco and things like that. Obviously that's all water and the bridge now. But he didn't like it. And I think he has endorsed Jade Vance publicly at least two or three times.
00:51:07
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:51:08
Speaker 4: So, but I do hear behind the scenes that he is putting out a few calls, few feelers just to temperature check with some of the people, some of the power players that could make that happen. So it's not over. But those are the outward indications that we've got from Ruby.
00:51:24
Speaker 5: We'll see. But I did check the Charlie thing, and we have to Remember, we have more than two years, he says. Let's stay focused on the work in front of us. You know what's better than daydreaming about our ticket in twenty eight getting so many wins that whoever we nominate is gonna romp. Yeah, that's what we should aim for.
00:51:38
Speaker 4: Citizen free Press. Check out the stack today. I check it multiple times every day. Citizen Kane, God bless you.

Speaker 4: If you could go back in time and buy oil before the world relied on it, would you? Of course you would, anybody would, So why aren't you buying silver right now? The people who recognized oil early didn't just make money, They got ahead of one of the biggest economic shifts in history, and today a similar opportunity is unfolding with silver. Silver is more than a precious metal. It's a critical resource used in solar panels, electric vehicles, defend systems AI infrastructure, in the massive data centers powering that digital world. While demand keeps growing, it's still affordable enough that the average American can start accumulating it right now. That's why investors are turning to silver to protect against inflation and to own one of the world's most important strategic resources. Don't be the person who looks back in ten years and says I saw it coming, I just didn't act. Visit noble Goold Investments dot com slash kirk and learn how easy it is to own physical silver.

00:52:56
Speaker 9: Thank you for having me.
00:52:57
Speaker 16: You guys have some excellent microphone taste over there studio.
00:53:01
Speaker 4: Well, you know, we have Charlie to thing for that. We tried out a bunch of microphones. It doesn't sound right, it's too tiny, it's too light. Gave our production team quite the run around.
00:53:10
Speaker 5: It's so funny you mentioned that, just because I was watching one of your clips last night and I had to think, that's the same microphone we have. And I'm not usually a microphone, not no, but.
00:53:18
Speaker 6: These are good?
00:53:19
Speaker 4: Are these actually the same one Rush used? That was what Charlie wanted. Give me the ones Rush uses. So and actually you'll you'll appreciate this when we had Glenn in the studio who brought the golden EIB microphone.
00:53:29
Speaker 6: Put it on the put it on the set. It was cool. It was very cool. Yeah, touching.
00:53:33
Speaker 4: All right, So, John, I wanted to talk to you about something because you've been really outspoken on a topic that I think. You know, we just had Citizen Kane from Citizen Free pass on.
00:53:43
Speaker 6: We're talking about turnout.
00:53:45
Speaker 4: We got this DSA thing going on, you know, but our right wing coalition is fraying at the edges, and you've been outspoken about it. And so I'm just gonna I'm gonna go ahead and play a montage here of people saying they're leaving the Republican Party.
00:54:00
Speaker 6: Done with the GOP top thirty four.
00:54:02
Speaker 11: I would not support the Republican Party. There's no chance I would support the Republican Party. Not going to support the Democratic Party. I don't know what I'm going to do, but at this point, you know, how could you support How could I or any American voter support a political party that's not loyal to the United States.
00:54:16
Speaker 3: Ron's left stronger, we are left weaker, our allies are left weaker.
00:54:25
Speaker 1: I do not think we should be sending money to the iotote that money will be used to murder Americans. I'm afraid we'll look back on this and see a missed opportunity to basically eliminate the threat.
00:54:36
Speaker 5: The details that I've seen so far look like, look look awful.
00:54:39
Speaker 15: This will go down as a tremendous foreign policy blunder.
00:54:42
Speaker 5: I think it's a deep mistake.
00:54:44
Speaker 13: Wicker also said the three hundred billion dollar reconstruction fund to help Iran recover from the war make Iran's payoff under President Obama's twenty fifteen deal look like a pittance by comparison.
00:54:58
Speaker 5: You get an interesting cond trust there, because it really I think it gets that Tucker there is saying he's extremely angry at the GOP it's putting in America lest and then we actually have this giant parade of Republican senators saying they're very angry that we're getting out of the Iran war, that this deal is I guess not putting the war first.
00:55:16
Speaker 4: Foreign policy is by far and away the most controversial, you know, issue on the right. So, John, what do you make of what's going on currently in our movement?
00:55:26
Speaker 9: I just don't understand.
00:55:27
Speaker 16: I mean, I understand why, like the neo KAN class would be upset about that decision. I don't understand why somebody like Tucker Carlson would be upset about that decision necessarily. And I don't even think that clip was what he was responding to initially. I think it was just sort of the vague you know, the GOP is controlled by foreign interests, and therefore I'm not going to align myself with that political party because they're not refused or they're refusing rather to put America first. But the problem with that is I remembered, I'm sure you guys remember Tucker Carlson was the guy who, in the height of Neo Kan control over Washington, was going to go on Fox and wear a bow tie and talk about how much he loved the Iraq War and defended the actions of George Bush.
00:56:01
Speaker 9: And it's only now.
00:56:02
Speaker 16: After what he said, like thirty five years that he's deciding that, you know, the party is too controlled by support for foreign countries and so he can no longer participate in it. And literally, in the span that he has been involved in politics, that has never been less accurate than it is now. I mean, Donald Trump is the guy who got on stage in twenty fifteen and said to Jeb Bush's face, the war in Iraq was a big, fat mistake. I mean, arguably, if not for immigration and trade policy, it was the repudiation of this exact kind of like neo kan Era foreign policy that animated his campaign originally. And he's actually stuck to those promises like fantastically well, I think, and so I don't understand why now, if not, you know, over the past twenty thirty years you would want to make a move like that. I can only assume it's because these people just basically want to ensure Democrat victories so they can get more engagement, because you know, it's the famous adage, right, no one wants to read a headline about a plane landing safely.
00:56:54
Speaker 9: It actually benefits.
00:56:55
Speaker 16: The influencer class when things are going very poorly because they have more to talk about. Because Americans are terrified that their children are being propagandized and their grandmothers are being mugged, and so they tune into people looking for answers, and so there is a very actually perverse incentive structure.
00:57:08
Speaker 5: I think, John, there was a tweet of yours yesterday that you're kind of referring to with what you just said, and it's not even just the neocon aspects of thing. In the same interview there, Tucker also complained that the administration hasn't taken action on, for example, like anti white sentiment in America, that there's anti white racism, anti white bias in the government. And first of all, as you say, are we perfect on this issue? Not yet, and yet you're allowed to talk about it. When I was working with him at Fox in twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, Fox would like not let us say anti white racism on the air. Now politicians talk about it. It's a live issue, and the DOJ has taken action. They are suing people over this. And I especially want to highlight what you said in your tweet where you just say the people who do like neokon stuff would like nothing better than for a bunch of people to rage quit the GOP. Yes, please pack up and leave. You can even you could be based if you want to, but whatever you want to do, just quit.
00:58:08
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:58:09
Speaker 16: Yeah, they're just better at politics than a lot of these people who think they're better on the issues are, And ultimately that's what's important.
00:58:14
Speaker 9: And so I just don't. I'm not impressed by that.
00:58:16
Speaker 16: You know, people who just like found out about like ideas that you weren't allowed to say on Fox News for example, five seconds ago, and now they think that like it's enough to simply be like correct about the ideas, and that thinking has actually been the problem that you know, conservatives have had in government forever. I mean, we believe that we will win because our heart is true, we have the correct ideas, we simply know better, and so we'll win the argument. The left doesn't play that way. They play the real politics game, and that's why they lap us at literally everything.
00:58:41
Speaker 9: And so what was the old you know thing people.
00:58:43
Speaker 16: Would say and make fun of the old GOP for principles, Right, I'm not gonna play politics because I have principles, I will be a beautiful loser. These people do the same thing where they say I'm not gonna play politics, I'm gonna opt out, and they won't say it's my principles, but they'll say it's because I'm just based.
00:58:56
Speaker 9: I'm just too far right for these people.
00:58:59
Speaker 16: And so I'm gonna wait, let the country collapse, and then once it gets harder to win, it will actually become easier to win because you're like my niche political ideology will ascend from the ashes and stand atop like the phoenix.
00:59:11
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:59:11
Speaker 4: Well, I'm not accusing Tucker of accelerationism, but I do think it would it would be helpful to lay out this basic taxonomy of the right, because I think it's it's important for our audience to understand that within the coalition there are these factions and they're pulling it one another, and they're trying to trying to sway one another and label one another to different different things. So let's just start with the neocons. You've got the neocons over here, that would have been the corn Ins, the the Senator crews that in that picture. Then you've got the plan trusters, right, Those are people that are die hard maga. They trust the president no matter what he does. You might think of it like a Michael Knowles. Some people put Turning Point in that category. I would slightly disagree with that, but whatever, that's kind of the perception. Then you've got the dissonance. This would be people that would never vote Democrat, but they want to keep the administration accountable, right, They want to criticize what they want to criticize and that sort of thing. So you're not always going to get favorable treatment from them, but they're definitely not Democrats. That would be like kind of like a Matt Walsh if you would, then you've got the small l libertarians. This is these would be the Massy supporters, the Josie, the redheaded Libertarian who was on the show, these people, and Josie.
01:00:19
Speaker 6: Warned us, these people will just opt out. They will just stop.
01:00:22
Speaker 4: Voting if they get demoralized, if they feel like their pet issues are not getting serviced sufficiently. And then you have over here on the far and the accelerationists, and the accelerationists are saying, don't vote for Republicans. We want to purify the party. We want them to lose terribly so that we can build something more ideologically pure in its place, out of the ashes and out of the roblem.
01:00:45
Speaker 5: John, you would would agree that acceleration, whatever it's emotional appeal, is basically let's win by jumping off a bridge.
01:00:54
Speaker 16: Yeah yeah, I mean, like me, when the originally leftist political theory seems to only benefit the last like this, the right does not do better in times of chaos I mean that kind of like stuff only seems to benefit the left. And also it seems that right now we have a very rare opportunity to actually like stop the decline of our country and make real material progress. And so it's very dishonest to me when I see people who are just casting arrows at the GOP broadly speaking, which for virtually our entire lives has been disappointing to say the least, But for the last few years it's actually started to improve in a very positive and actually kind of like incomprehensible direction. And so it's not honest to write off the whole GOP and use vague language like look at they fail to do anything that said, I'm finally quitting. And it's like, dude, we've never had a better opportunity to actually address the issues who claim to care about so much then we do right now. And I have friends, We all have friends in DC. We all kind of know what's going on there and how hard these guys are working, and how they're totally aware of what's going on and how to fix it. They need now more than ever, actually like support. They need to understand that they have friends out there who will support them if and when the imminent life discounter attack comes, which, by the way, they're quite openly advertising that, you know, when they get back into power, they're going to prosecute people, They're going to docs ice agents, Like, now is not the time to signal that we are not all unified collectively against the global left. Now is actually the time, while we control the federal government to actually like dig our heels into this sand and say, no, we're not going to retreat because we sense the potential threat for like an imminent counter attack. We are actually going to stay in this fight because, yeah, the enemy be that, you know, the establishment, GOP, the left. They don't care why you leave the fight. It can be because you're so ideologically pure. It can be because you're a coward, it can be for literally whatever reason. They are happy when there are fewer people throwing their weight behind the political project of Donald Trump.
01:02:43
Speaker 4: It's as simple as that, well said John, and I totally agree. You know, we often make the point here that if you just took an image of the Senate now versus ten years ago, there's so many better representatives there.
01:02:56
Speaker 5: Everything is getting better one election, one.
01:02:59
Speaker 6: Election at a time.
01:02:59
Speaker 4: We just have to stay the course because, as you said, it's unimaginable how far we've come. Actually, when you just took a snapshot ten years ago to now, it's it's it's incredible. I gotta tell you about it because I'm so proud of the team they've come out with this whole new merch line America two fifty. And yeah, you might recognize Russ in that video. I don't know who the gals are. That's Russ from thought Crime and other different things we do around here modeling these beautiful shirts.
01:03:29
Speaker 6: So check it out right now.
01:03:31
Speaker 4: Go check out our store, the Charlie Kirkstore dot com and get yours today, Special America two fifty. And by the way, the fabric on this, they've like upgraded the fabric. It's very nice, it's very very quality. So check it out today. Good job to the team putting that out there. So Special America two fifty merch collection. Check it out today. John Doyle, welcome back. You know, so what's interesting right now in this coalition is that they are are that that taxonomy of the right that I laid out. It's like the accelerationists want to peel off the small l's and the dissidents and the neocons want to label the the Plan trusters, if you will, as neocons, And it's like that's not true at all, right, So if I give the President the benefit of the doubt, all of a sudden, I'm like, you know, wanting to you know, lob bombs on foreign countries all day long.
01:04:24
Speaker 6: That's like not at all true, right.
01:04:26
Speaker 4: But it's just interesting how the factions are trying to pul the coalition apart right down the middle, and really we need to keep everybody together.
01:04:35
Speaker 6: How do we do that?
01:04:36
Speaker 16: That is a very good question. That's the million dollar question, isn't it. I feel like we just kind of have to keep our head down and keep telling the truth. I Mean, people seem to really just want the blood and the drama and all of that. But I would hope that the higher quality people who are more interested in just like actual solutions to the problems that we face and that literally threaten our entire civilization.
01:04:55
Speaker 9: I'd hope that those heads can ultimately prevail.
01:04:57
Speaker 16: Though I'm a bit jaded these days, but I think that really, like all of that conflict, I mean, really the neo cons stand to benefit more than anybody from that. I mean, these are people who are still very well entrenched into positions of power in Washington and throughout the party. They stand to benefit if we do not have momentum behind like the sort of ascend into America first cause. And I think that maybe accelerationist types is perhaps is implied by their title being accelerations. They're very happy to just burn everything down so they feel like they can take a victory lap on social media. And so the first step is I think, just like ostracize those people. I really think that any organization that takes itself seriously, be that an institution or even just a party or a movement, you can't tolerate low quality behavior and you can't tolerate low quality people. I mean, if you and I were trying to prepare a meal and I was in the kitchen just like you know, throwing eggs around and like, look it breaks if I throw it like you would kick me out very quickly. And that's for something extremely low stakes like a dinner party. I mean, we're talking about the future of our nation, a country that we will continue to live in, our children will live in. Like we have to actually take this extremely seriously, and people I think have a tendency maybe well to you know, indulge a lot of this stuff from people and say, well, yeah, they were lying and they were wrong, and they're accusing people of like taking money and being compromised. But can you at least understand that they're only doing that because they're really concerned. And it's like, dude, like, no, I'm not going to excuse like low quality behavior because of socioeconomic factors or something like we're right wing, We're supposed to understand that. And I think when we stop, you know, rewarding this behavior and indulging in it, we can all operate as a much more well oiled machine, because right now there's way too much of the Well, you got to hand it to him. He may have lied about this thing the Trump administration did, but it's only because he really cares about.
01:06:36
Speaker 9: The issue of immigration and what you don't.
01:06:37
Speaker 16: It's like, this is not this is not how adults engage in politics. This is just like unproductive and stupid.
01:06:43
Speaker 5: Yeah, John, I've really appreciated on your ex account you've had pinned since September tenth. Charlie. There never surrender and that's one of the big lessons all of us, all of us take with from Charlie. He was such a builder. He was such a relentless growth mindset. He would always be he would tell us, no black pilling, even if the news is bad, No black pilling. And he would always be fixated on these little win There we go, there we go. We have no black pilling image on screen right now, and we would always be telling us folk. He loved the executive orders that the Trump administration is doing, you know, the attacks on DEI, the new focus on housing, these little wins that we're getting the border secured. And is it sexy to talk about that? No, they'd rather talk about whatever the new thing is. And yet here's this big, enduring win that will last for years to come.
01:07:31
Speaker 4: Your colleague, actually over at the Blaze, Orn McIntyre had a great tweet sort of on this. He goes again, I've had plenty of issues with the Admin's current foreign policy decisions, but you would never see another GOP president discuss these realities. The Overton window has forever been moved by Trump and whatever his faults, that should be appreciated. And he throws up this truth social from Trump where he goes lifetime contributions per immigrant. I think we have this, yes, and it is extraordinarily based for a president.
01:07:58
Speaker 5: Yeah, immigrants from Scandinavia are great net contributors, and refugees that we take from the Horn of Africa tend to not be long term contributors. And where we've come so far from. I remember when Trump said why are we taking people from bleephole countries? Apocalyptic response. It was the biggest story for several days in a row. People thought we might have to impeach him over this, and now the president just throws it out on truth and everyone's like, that's awesome.
01:08:22
Speaker 6: I often think about this.
01:08:24
Speaker 4: Do you remember the battle in Trump one point zero to get wall funding, and it was like, yeah, the wall was this symbol of racism and bigotry and hate, and we don't build walls, we build bridges, and like, I mean, hysteria and now.
01:08:40
Speaker 5: Dunks now seeing undunks that he's not building it as fast as he's promised. He says they could get it done by the end of next year, but they'll have to speed it up to get that done. We see an undunking on us for not building the wall fast Send.
01:08:51
Speaker 4: Hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine, and they threw such a fit about twenty billion dollars for the wall.
01:08:57
Speaker 6: And now you don't even hear about it. It's just getting built. That's progress.
01:09:00
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, I mean you can even tell in the sort of messaging they deliver. You know, for ten years, I remember, we would always try to invoke hypocrisy.
01:09:09
Speaker 9: We would say, you.
01:09:09
Speaker 16: Know, the left says this, but they do this, and that would be what we were doing. You know, we were CNN talking about the wall. It's like, now they have to do that because they're losing their grip on power. And when you don't have power all of a sudden, the only thing you can do is point out the standards and how you know your enemy's not following them or something. When you have power, you can do whatever you want. You can set the standard, you can hold your enemies accountable to the standard, but not follow it yourself. And you know that's a little ugly, but that's just sort of how the game is played. And so I saw that for so long conservatives couldn't actually do anything to stop the decline of our country, but we could say, well, the left says this, but they're doing this. They want socialism for everybody, yet they have three homes, and it's like, that's true, but ultimately that doesn't solve problems. What seems to be working now is actually occupying institutions and wielding the power of the government as we're supposed to be doing. And so now the left is on the back foot and they can't do anything to stop it, despite literally everything that they have tried. And so now all they can do is just impotently whine about standards. You know, you say funding for this, yet you do this. You're concerned about a ballroom, yet we have poor people. It's like, yeah, please let me fill up my liberal tears, tumbler. I hope that you continue that. I hope that you don't regroup.
01:10:17
Speaker 4: I love what you just said, like occupying institutions, using and wielding power. We have to be bold in the use of power. Listen, I've got complaints. I want an immigration moratorium like twenty years ago. I don't hear anybody really talking about that yet. And I'm gonna keep banging the drum because I know it's popular and I know it's needed. But that doesn't mean you give up on the whole project just because you're not getting the thing that you think is the most critical. There's only one team that could deliver that. There's only one team, and we got to keep holding their feet to the fire. But no black pilling. We are making progress. Final twenty seconds to you, John.
01:10:49
Speaker 16: There's literally no reason to ever blackpill anything, whether you're playing a sport, playing again, there's no reason to ever give up. People think optimism is like lying. People think I'm optimistic, so I'm gonna like delude myself about the reality of the situation. Being optimistic literally just means not giving up and thinking, Okay, where there's a will, there's a way, I'll figure it out. And people who tend to have that mindset tend to curiously outperform people who just look at the negative and everything.
01:11:13
Speaker 4: We're gonna keep building, we're gonna keep fighting, and we will win. John Doyle, thank you, my friend, God bless you.
01:11:18
Speaker 9: Thank you
