The Idaho Yogurt Heroes Honoring Charlie

00:00:03 Speaker 1: My name is Charlie Kirk. 00:00:05 Speaker 2: I run the largest pro American student organization in the country, fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're gonna end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you'll end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start at turning point, you would say, college chapter. Go start aturning point, you say high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. 00:00:37 Speaker 3: Sign up and become an activist. 00:00:39 Speaker 2: I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade, most important decision I ever made in my life, and I encourage you to do the same. 00:00:45 Speaker 1: Here I am Lord, Use me. 00:00:48 Speaker 2: Buckle up, everybody, Here we go. The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserved Gold, leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends and viewers. 00:01:09 Speaker 4: All right, welcome back to The Charlie Kirk Show. Hour two is underway. I'm still in DC. After last night's State of the Union, Blake's holding it down at the studio in Phoenix. 00:01:19 Speaker 1: Thank you for doing that, Blake. 00:01:21 Speaker 4: We I'm very excited about this next segment, and it's with two great Americans. Their names are Chase and Sarah Gibson. They are owners of Grooveberry's Furyo Shop in Idaho, and they have quite the story to tell. They have attempted in their way to honor Charlie, and it has not been a straight line of a story, but they are great patriots and we wanted to honor them. When I found out about the story, I tweeted about it. I tried to let people know so they could support this business, but I want to hear about it from them themselves. Chase and Sarah, welcome to the show. It's an honor to have you. 00:01:58 Speaker 5: Thank you, Thank you so much for us. It's an honor to be on. 00:02:01 Speaker 6: Yeah, thank you guys, Such an honor, so cool. 00:02:04 Speaker 4: So we appreciate us so much. God bless you. Thank you guys. And so why don't you tell us the story what happened? Because you attempted to honor Charlie and you've been met with good and bad, so tell us the story. 00:02:16 Speaker 7: Yeah, So, a couple of days after his assassination, you know, my husband Chase and I we prayed, what can we do to carry on Charlie's legacy? And you know, the idea popped. You know, here's the cops right here. We printed a memoriam sticker with his birth and death year and his name. I printed two hundred of them because I just thought, Okay, it'll be a day of thing, just. 00:02:41 Speaker 6: Remembrance for him, you know, and it took off way more than what we were thinking. All into God, Charlie was just such an amazing guy. He was so so good at pulling biblical scripture and for biblical truth within his dialogue at debates, and there's something I really really. 00:02:59 Speaker 3: Truly up to him for. 00:03:01 Speaker 6: So it was just such a simple thing for us to do to show our support for him and his family and his remembrance. 00:03:07 Speaker 4: Absolutely so, how many how many did you end up printing or are you still printing? 00:03:13 Speaker 1: Boy? 00:03:14 Speaker 5: Where's yeah? We're still printing on that. There's been how many men? 00:03:17 Speaker 6: You would bet we're over sixty thousand, eighty thousand cups with stickers on them. 00:03:24 Speaker 3: Just yeah, the first the support. 00:03:28 Speaker 6: I didn't have enough room at my shop to follow the yogurt to be how to make multiple trips actually out to our suppliers just to make sure I had enough to keep going, which thank goodness for our powerhouse tailor machines back here. They just they didn't stop. So it was it was well, it was amazing. 00:03:47 Speaker 4: I just love having you guys on the show because it sort of feels blake like our version of what President Trump was trying to do last. 00:03:54 Speaker 1: Night, the State of the Union. 00:03:55 Speaker 4: It did very well, by the way, but telling real stories of real Americans out there. You know, you did get some pushback though, So tell us about that. So death threats, menacing messages, tell us exactly. 00:04:11 Speaker 7: Yeah, So that first day that we put them out, we actually had an in person, you know, somebody kind of shoved me up against my countertop. 00:04:19 Speaker 5: We had to get the police involved. And then from there it's been. 00:04:23 Speaker 8: Yes, and against the countertop, not. 00:04:28 Speaker 7: Not physically with her hands, but backed me up, I should say, into my countertop. Wouldn't leave our store, even though she said we were the ones that were making her feel uncomfortable. 00:04:40 Speaker 5: It was a whole thing. 00:04:40 Speaker 6: Yeah, she was too uncomfortable we've asked her, you know, it's you can leave, like it's okay, Like I'm too uncomfortable to go up out of my seat. 00:04:50 Speaker 5: Well we'll have the police come get you, no problem, you know. 00:04:53 Speaker 7: So there was that, and then yeah, just from there, lots of hate comments. We have received death threats via mail, handwritten mail via our social media is. 00:05:06 Speaker 6: Yeah, that was one that was interesting to me because I was just like going to a mailbox and you know, didn't really assume much get there. 00:05:13 Speaker 3: Most of it's good mail, you know. 00:05:15 Speaker 6: I would say ninety percent of our information we're getting from people as positive. Ten percent pretty brutal. But that comes from me who's not really on social media and I've never experienced it. So it's it was tell telling the situation to be and I think to see different opinions being pushed against us in a sense. So but that one was a handwritten note that was I was color blind. 00:05:43 Speaker 3: I'm color blind. I thought it was red. So it was a little more crazy to me than life said it was. 00:05:49 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:05:49 Speaker 7: Basically, just in general, the whole experience has been lots of great and then mixed in with just I would say the support has been way overshadowed. 00:05:59 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, the hate. 00:06:00 Speaker 1: Though, Yeah, good good, Blake, I want to get you in here. 00:06:05 Speaker 8: No, it all sounds remarkable, I guess. Yeah, we're glad that the support overshadows the hate for sure, but yeah, right handwritten letters. Do you get the sense? Is this cranks in the community or was there enough attention you think online? Do you think you're getting it from all over the country at least? I guess I'd feel better if it was a lunatic in Massachusetts sending this to you. 00:06:27 Speaker 7: Correct, Yeah, I mean we're still getting messages from all over the country. Initially Fox News had picked up on us, and so it kind of we were getting messages from actually all over the world. 00:06:43 Speaker 5: And I mean, just to highlight how. 00:06:44 Speaker 7: Much support we were getting to, I mean, there was people calling in with their credit card numbers asking how can they help pay it forward? Or you know, we had coined the Blueberry Budget. I'm sure you remember Gigi's Blueberry Budget donated. Yeah, from the day we started up until Charlie's birthday, we donated twenty five percent of our Charlie Kirk related sales directly to Erica Kirk for the Blueberry Budget, and then now going forward, we've been donating five percent to our local Turning Point chapters and Club America chapters yep. 00:07:19 Speaker 6: And we just had a Point chapter for Northern Idaho College here yesterday us in our space just to. 00:07:27 Speaker 3: Watch the sey that you need to address. 00:07:28 Speaker 6: So it's very cool to be able to supportive of these groups, and I think Global America is a pretty big one that we're really getting super stoked to help out with. 00:07:40 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:07:40 Speaker 4: Well, I just want to highlight for the folks at home. You know you're you guys did this because you are strong Christians that believe that you are called to spread the gospel in whatever realm. 00:07:52 Speaker 1: That you're in. 00:07:52 Speaker 4: You have a Grooveberri's Froyio shop in Cordelaine, Idaho. So you're spreading the gospel there and you're you're standing up, you have worship nights at your shop. You're supporting Club America Turning Point. We got about a minute remaining, guys, I want to just first say please support them. If you're in that area of the woods, Neck of the Woods, could please go buy grooveberries for your shop. If you're driving through, maybe you're going to live in Seattle and you're driving to go ski in Montana or something, drive through stop buy groove Berry's. Please support them. These are great patriots, salty with people. Just tell us, you know, in the last minute that we have here, you know, what does it mean for you? 00:08:31 Speaker 1: And what Charlie's legacy was. 00:08:32 Speaker 4: President Trump highlighted his that there's a revival going on with young people after Charlie's assassination. Tell us about the faith impact and why that's important to you one minute. 00:08:42 Speaker 7: Honestly, it is the number one most important. And that's exactly what Charlie. That's exactly what Charlie stood for was God first, his devotion and love for Jesus Christ. And he didn't care the persecution that is expected to come with it. And you know we are all expected to stand up in his place now. 00:08:59 Speaker 5: He was our voice. 00:09:00 Speaker 3: Know we're his yep. 00:09:01 Speaker 6: And Charlie just did such a great job at making a point that his relationship with Jesus comes first. And I have started to really try and make my point in life and every day to read my Bible, and I encourage every single person to get in there. There's nothing about positivity and goodness that comes from learning the word of God. 00:09:19 Speaker 5: So yeah. 00:09:20 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, God bless you guys. You guys are such rock stars. We just love you guys, and we have your back. Thank you for having our back. And yeah, just God bless you and God bless Groove Berries. 00:09:31 Speaker 1: Keep up the great work. 00:09:32 Speaker 3: Thank you, thanks so much. 00:09:34 Speaker 5: God bless you guys. 00:09:35 Speaker 1: Thanks thanks for coming on. Those were amazing, amazing people. I'm still rock just. 00:09:40 Speaker 4: I want them, Yeah, yeah, we got to reach out to them and invite them to something, because that is what makes America a great place. Christians that are cool, that have courage, that are down to do the right thing. And I just pray that they are richly, richly blessed. I pray that they end becoming like the biggest froyo franchise in the country. 00:10:04 Speaker 1: So help do that. 00:10:04 Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, I'm gonna go, like buy some gift cards from them online and I'll probably never be able to use them. 00:10:10 Speaker 1: Maybe I will, but I don't care. So That's what I'm gonna do. 00:10:16 Speaker 4: If you knew Charlie Kirk, you knew this. He was a connector. Charlie believed in finding good people and connecting them with other good people that he cared about. When someone truly took care of him. Charlie would never hesitate to recommend them. Andrew Delray and Todd of Akin were two of those people. They personally helped Charlie and Erica with their mortgage needs, and Charlie trusted them completely. Whether it was a home buyer trying to qualify or someone needing to consolidate debt or see if they could get a lower rate in payments. These were the guys Charlie sent people to and right now, timing matters. The market has shifted and rates have come down. There's more inventory, bidding wars have cooled, and buyers finally have more control. But that window won't stay open forever. As rates come down, competition will return. That's why being prepared now is so important. Andrew and Todd at Union Home Mortgage bring over forty years of combined experience and guide you through the process clearly, no pressure, no guesswork. These are the people Charlie trusted, and they're the people you can count on. 00:11:12 Speaker 2: Reach out today to get approved for mortgage financing with Andrew and Todd at Andrewintodd dot com or called Triple Light Triple eight eleven seventy two with forty years of experience. They really are the experts, and they make it easy because they keep everything in house called Triple Light Triple eight eleven seventy two or go to Andrewintodd dot com. That is Andrewintodd dot com. 00:11:34 Speaker 4: We have to talk about this road in Texas, Blake, Why don't you fill our audience in on it all? 00:11:40 Speaker 3: Right? 00:11:41 Speaker 8: Well, so, obviously there are a lot of proposals around the country to honor Charlie in various ways because of his accomplishments and of course his martyrdom. We have one here in Arizona where we're hoping to name the two or two loop that goes right around this area after him. But one of the proposals was in Texas. It's Bastrip County. This is just outside of Austin, and they had a proposal to designate FM nine to six nine, which is about a twenty nine mile stretch of highway going from the town of Bastrip to the Austin area, and they're gonna call it the Charlie Kirk Corridor. And this is a Republican county. I know Austin is liberal, but this is a conservative leaning county. But Apparently dozens of people showed up to a county commission meeting on Monday and were against the proposal, and as a result, they they folded immediately up. A few dozen people are mad dropped the proposal. They are they put the meeting, they put the vote on hold, and we don't know if it'll ever happen. And I don't think Charlie would be very happy at that. At that level of spine, I must say, yeah. 00:12:54 Speaker 4: This is this is an amazing I would say microcosm of the problem that Charlie had with the GEO, the traditional GOP, the pre Trump GOP. They were spineless, they had no guts. This guy basically put it forward. Sure, I will thank him for putting it forward, but then he gets a little bit of pushback, a modicum of pushback, and he folds like a cheap suit. That is unacceptable to me. I would have preferred had he never even put the motion up in the first place. 00:13:23 Speaker 1: Then to be. 00:13:24 Speaker 4: Cowed by a couple dozen activists that don't want their highway named after Charlie Kirk, It's an absolute insult to the people of Texas, the great state of Texas. To your point, Blake Everything outside of Austin is ruby red. I mean Dripping Springs is ruby red. This Bastard County is ruby red. Lake Travis area is ruby red. There are great patriots all around Austin, and it is an amazing community of people that I know for a fact support Charlie. Kirk chip Roy, who was just on yesterday, represents just south of Austin. This is an absolute insult to Charlie's memory. To your point, like they're doing this all over the country and these roads are going to be named in Charlie's honor. 00:14:04 Speaker 1: He deserves that and so much more. 00:14:07 Speaker 4: But the fact that the left is so insane right now that they can't celebrate Charlie who died debating by inviting open debate on college campuses. He did nothing wrong, he did everything right, and they've got a problem with it is obscene. And this man should have held the line, and he should have fought back, and he should have pushed back and said thank you for your comments, I'm ignoring them, we're moving forward with it anyways. Instead he's saying, I'm going to take this motion off, I'm not going to bring it back up, and we're going to take a breather and I'm going to talk with my constituents. And he's not planning on bringing it back up again. I say to him, you are a coward. I wish you would have never done it in the first place. I wish you would have never brought it up in the first place. If you didn't have the spine to follow through on it, Shame on you. You're exactly what Charlie Kirk fought against in the GOP. 00:14:57 Speaker 8: You read against what it like, some held signs that no to show their opposition. And then Commissioner David Glass, he's quoted in this article from the Hill, and he just says, I'm going to take a breath and have some more conversations with my constituents after this showed up. And he was the one who originally put it on the voting block. And just again, if you couldn't anticipate that there would be angry liberals who would turn out to trash Charlie, to trash his legacy, to smear him, and to oppose this. Yeah, why did you even bring this up? If you're going to fold the moment anyone voices the slightest opposition, why are you even in politics? Why Actually, okay, I take that back. You're a perfect representation of a lot of GOP people in politics, But why are you It's aggravating in the extreme. 00:15:49 Speaker 1: But here's here's the deal. 00:15:51 Speaker 4: You know, you've got one side that you know is basically trying to honor Charlie. This guy's done a poor job, okay, And you got this other side that apparently is so deranged that they can't wrap their mind around honoring Charlie. But they don't have the self awareness to realize that it's their party that's inflicting the violence. It's their party that has a violence problem. Last night, at the State of the Union, President Trump asked everybody to stand up against political violence. They refuse to do so. It's appalling, and they are telling themselves this lie. And so this is why this is important, Blake, because when you will not honor Charlie, a victim of political violence, a martyr for the American free speech, a Christian martyr. When you won't do that, you are denying that you have a problem of political violence. You're baring your head in the sand and you're not acknowledging it. Then they keep telling themselves this lie. This is from CNN from April twenty twenty five. This is what they tell themselves three sixty three. 00:16:48 Speaker 9: While America's roots are soaked in bloodshed, violence in the country today is mostly from right winning extremism, from Oklahoma City to Charlottesville to January sixth. There is simply no equivalent on the left. 00:17:05 Speaker 1: This is what they believe, Blake, and it's Appallie. 00:17:08 Speaker 8: These people are lunatics. There's this insane live. We just have to endure the crazy over again. Yeah, like there where they it's like that Nazi article the other day in the Atlantic where they're calling you a Nazi because that is their excuse to treat you horribly, to scream at you. And it's all projection from top to bottom. They're the ones who want to censor speech. They're the ones who would try to cancel Charlie's events. They're the ones who would try to scream him off the platform. They're endlessly They tried to tear him down while he was alive. They tried to tear him down now that he's a murdyr. Repulsive creatures, repulsive. 00:17:45 Speaker 4: Now welcome into the show. As Sean Davis, co founder of the Federalist and CEO. Great man, great American, great patriot. Sean, I'll give you the the the layup question. Tell me what your thought. What you thought of the President's State of the Union last night? 00:17:59 Speaker 10: I thought it was spectacular. Previously, I thought the best speech he had ever given was the twenty twenty State of the Union right before COVID hijacked the country and the election. I was in the room that day and he blew the roof off the place. I thought this one was even better. The contrast that he was able to draw between who Democrats worked for and who Republicans work for, which America they represent. Turns out Democrats don't really represent America at all. I thought it was great. I thought he laid out a roadmap for getting through the next nine months winning the election. And the question that I now have is are Republicans in Congress willing to do what they need to do to keep that momentum and follow that roadmap so they don't get blown out November? 00:18:42 Speaker 8: And Sean, do you think Republicans in the Senate are going to have that do what is necessary to maintain that momentum. I know you've been commenting on that online. 00:18:53 Speaker 3: Yeah, Blake. 00:18:53 Speaker 10: I'm gonna take the under on that one. I don't have a whole lot of confidence, but hey, we've got nine months an eternity in politics, there's no one like Trump who has the ability to bully people, especially people on his own side, to do what needs to get done. But what Republicans have to understand is that was an amazing speech, but Donald Trump's not on the ballot. They are, so they have to give people reasons to vote for them. They can't just rely on Donald Trump to do all their work for them. 00:19:19 Speaker 1: Amen. 00:19:20 Speaker 4: I think that is such an important point. You have to give the base reasons to turn out. We talk about this in terms of California. This is an easy example. A lot of people aren't focusing on California. They successfully got enough signatures to get voter ID on the ballot in California. That is going to energize California Republicans to turn out, and that might mean the difference of holding the House and not even with all the shenanigans in California. So I'm telling you, so it's so important to give the base what it wants to vote for. You got to put wins on the board. This is last night President Trump talking about past the Save Act. Then I'm going to play Dune's reaction to it this morning and have your reaction five o three, And. 00:20:00 Speaker 2: Perhaps most importantly, I'm asking you to approve the Safe America Act. 00:20:11 Speaker 5: Please stop illegal aliens and others. 00:20:14 Speaker 10: We're unpermitted persons from voting in our sacred American elections. 00:20:21 Speaker 4: And Leader Thoon was asked about that this morning on Fox five h four. 00:20:26 Speaker 11: The Democrats, even in the chamber last night, having to sit there and try and defend allowing non citizens to vote in American elections. That is a losing proposition for them. So we will get a vote on it. And we are right now in the middle of a government shut down, so we've got to try and get the government opened up first. But in due time we will get that up on the floor. We will have a vote on it. We will make sure that the Democrats are on the record. It is a stark contrast between Republicans and Democrats about how they want to handle elections in this country, and this is going to put them, I think in a very difficult position. It's an issue if I were running as a Democrat in the midterm elections in November. 00:21:02 Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to have to defend. 00:21:04 Speaker 4: All right, Sean, you have been around swamp creatures for a long time. 00:21:07 Speaker 1: Can you please translate. 00:21:08 Speaker 10: Yes, classic failure theater. If you listen to what Trump asked for, he said, I want you to pass the Save America Act. I want voter Idea, I want citizenship verification. And then if you listen to what John Thune said. He didn't say we're going to pass that. He didn't say we're going to make that happen. He said we're going to get a vote on it. Well, congratulate Forrick Relations Like it takes no effort to get a vote on something. One senator in the minority can get a vote on whatever he wants, whenever he wants. Getting a vote is not a victory. Getting a vote is failure. And even worse, he is allowing Democrats to block the Save America Act and to block Voter ID by doing nothing. He's basically saying the default here is that we don't do anything unless we have sixty votes. We're not going to require Democrats to come and control the floor and actually talk about why they're opposing it. We're just going to let them vote once and block it, and then we're going to move on to other things like permitting reform, whatever, whatever corporate K Street lobbyist want. It is failure theater. It is designed to fail, and he is designing it to fail in a way where he can patent himself on the back and be like, well, I did what I said, Well I. 00:22:11 Speaker 3: Was gonna do. 00:22:12 Speaker 10: I gave a vote, we created a contrast. We already have the contrast what we want as results. 00:22:18 Speaker 8: Yeah, I noticed as far as failure theater goes the sort of pre defeat, pre defeated lines he was using. He's saying, we'll get them on the record, they'll have to account for their vote in November. But like the Save Act, is not about holding Democrats accountable for their votes. It is about requiring voter ID in an election. It is about taking steps to prevent potential fraud or the easy signing up of dubious votes. And as you say, the whole thing, it's it's a song and dance you and I know we've heard four decades. It is just the it's that sort of fake Senate, the fake Congress where since the default is nothing will pass other than omnibus spending bills. Everything else is phony. And that's actually that's the best argument for getting rid of the filibuster is we should have a Congress that actually does things again, and the only way that will happen is if they can pass votes by a majority vote. 00:23:11 Speaker 10: Yeah, so I probably disagree on getting rid of the philibuster because I don't think you need to get rid of it. The problem with Republicans in the Senate is they're just lazy. They don't want to do work. They don't want to have to be on the floor every day. They certainly don't want to have to be on the floor Monday through Friday. Like what are they normal people having to work forty hours a week. That's below them. So, you know, in theory, I understand why some people think the filibuster is the problem here, but it's really not. If they were to pass nuke the filibuster tomorrow, they might maybe pass one or two bills and then that's it. I mean to me, the problem here is not structural. The problem is we have members who are too lazy to do the work. 00:23:54 Speaker 4: Hi, folks, Andrew Covett here, I'd like to tell you about my friends over at why Refie. You've probably been hearing the talk about y Refi for some time. 00:24:01 Speaker 3: Now. 00:24:02 Speaker 4: We are all in with these guys. If you or someone you know is struggling with private student loan debt, take my advice and give them a call. Maybe you're behind on your payments, maybe you're even in default. You don't have to live in this nightmare anymore. Why ref I will provide you a custom payment based on your ability to pay. They tailor each loan individually. They can save you thousands of dollars and you can get your life back. We go to campuses all over America and we see student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt. Many of them don't even know how much they owe. Why ref I can help. Just go to y refi dot com. That's the letter why then refi dot com. And remember y Refi doesn't care what your credit score is. Just go to yrefi dot com and tell them your friend Andrews sent you. To Blake's point that this is not a political theater vote. This is saying we have a structural issue in our elections that is going to fundamentally impact the election. So we need to do it before the election. We don't need a contrast vote. We don't need a show vote, not a messaging vote. We already know that they're against this, We already know that the Republicans are for it. So before it and don't be a coward. I genuinely so, yes, Sean, you know this better than I do. I was invited to go to the State of the Union. It was very honored. 00:25:20 Speaker 1: Andy Ogle's office had me out there. It was great. 00:25:23 Speaker 4: Loved being there, and they wanted to give me an insider view of the way Capitol Hill works. Right because I'd never lived in DC. I don't live I'm here right now, I don't know it. But they took me to this Capital Club restaurant. You probably know it. So I go in there. It's not much to see, but it's like all K Street lobbyists. It's all these special interests. 00:25:47 Speaker 1: Taking wining and dining. 00:25:49 Speaker 4: They have to pay all this money to get a membership, and you just go into this place and your skin starts crawling because you can feel the dubious backroom deals getting like hatched right in front of your eyes. And they took me there so that I could see it. I wasn't like partaking. I wasn't like, you know, please, but it creaked me out. And you know this, this swap system better than most Sean. This is what I hear when I hear John Thune saying, we're going to get a show vote on this. 00:26:16 Speaker 10: Yeah, you're you're exactly right. It was the Capitol Hill Club, I think between C and D Street on First Street Southeast and right across from the Cannon Building there. 00:26:25 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:26:25 Speaker 10: Yeah, that is where they do their deals. It's where they hang out with each other and have a good time and try to think up all the ways they're going to screw the American public or try to pull the wool over our eyes by not doing what they said. And that's what people are so frustrated with. And I think it's one reason why Trump has been such a breath of fresh air in politics is the guy says he's going to do something and then he does it. Like what a revolutionary idea in politics to say you're going to do something and then do it. And the thing about midterm elections is they are base elections. You have to give your base a reason to turn out. Yes, Democrats are crazy people who hate America. We get that, but you can't just win on negative vibes against the other side. You have to get your people jacked up on successes that you've pushed through to get them to fight and come to the polls for you. 00:27:12 Speaker 4: This is I think the central message of today's showed has to be President Trump got massive positive marks on his speech last night. He laid out the framework and the roadmap for how to win the midterms. 00:27:27 Speaker 1: Do what he said. Trust Trump. This thing is the weird. 00:27:31 Speaker 8: Thing is is you will win elections by winning. And it's the most frustrating thing with what Thune said. It is the pre defeat, it is the will hold the vote. Nothing will change. But we'll look at the contrast. 00:27:43 Speaker 1: No, you will win. 00:27:44 Speaker 8: By delivering wins for the public and having credible promises of future wins. And the best way to have credible promises of future wins is the list of wins you've already lined up. And people are very, very fed up with fakeness. This is why liberals do well. They often their ideas are horrible, but they often deliver them. 00:28:05 Speaker 4: Look at Virginia Sean Davis, CEO of the Federalists, co founder of the Federalists. 00:28:09 Speaker 1: I check it every day. You should too. Great great reporting there at the Federals. Thank you Sean Davis, God bless you man. 00:28:15 Speaker 3: Thank you guys. 00:28:18 Speaker 4: We are joined on set here in DC by the one and only Jack Pisobic. 00:28:24 Speaker 1: What's going on. 00:28:25 Speaker 12: People don't realize that we shop for blazers together. 00:28:27 Speaker 4: So you know, it was one of the very similar one of our trips, very similar trip. Jack, you said something to me that stuck with me. Oh you said, it wasn't just a home run, it was home run derby. 00:28:36 Speaker 1: He really was. So you are a messenger. 00:28:38 Speaker 4: You're a messenger, You're a conduit of the base and base energy. 00:28:42 Speaker 1: How important was that speech? 00:28:43 Speaker 12: Look, I think when you look at the way that President Trump understood it, undertook that speech for pretty much every single section of it. He was taking those issues that are right down the middle. It was, you know, a fastball right down the middle, was like pitching during. 00:28:58 Speaker 1: A home run derby. 00:28:59 Speaker 12: And he's set it up. Of course, they orchestrated it this way to create this trap for the Democrats. 00:29:05 Speaker 1: That you know. 00:29:06 Speaker 12: I dare you to be against this, I dare you to be against American citizens. I dare you to be against America Heroes. I even having Erica there, Erica with Arena Zarutsko, which is just it blew my parents that to be with the parents of Arena Zarotsko, to to be sitting there, and and in fact, Blake and I were in the chat during the during the the speech, were saying, We're saying, can you tell who Erica is sitting next to? We couldn't, you know, We didn't recognize him. 00:29:32 Speaker 4: And and I don't think she knew who they were. Oh really, that's my I haven't talked to her about it, but they know. I talked to her before and she was like, I'm going in solo, you know, because it's such limited. 00:29:42 Speaker 1: See. 00:29:43 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you don't get like a plus one, and so you go in there and it was kind of like, you know, here's the President's area, but you don't. 00:29:50 Speaker 12: It's not like they introduced you there was I figured that it wasn't done by chance, though, I figured out some reason. 00:29:56 Speaker 1: Charlie. 00:29:56 Speaker 4: One of Charlie's final things that he messaged so hard on was. 00:30:00 Speaker 1: The murder of Arenas last seek. 00:30:02 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:30:02 Speaker 12: I pulled it up last night. So it was twelve thirty five Eastern, so just two hours, literally just two hours. 00:30:13 Speaker 4: Yeah, and he believed, he said, we have to politicize this because it was a political malady that created it that you know, it's cashless bail, putting repeat criminals back on the streets to murder innocent Americans. And so yeah, it was a very fitting position. 00:30:26 Speaker 12: You think of the logistics, by the way, to get a family like that out of Ukraine and all the people to just be in that room at that I mean, I can't even imagine, because we try to get people together for Amfest and. 00:30:38 Speaker 4: It's like, oh, it's it's it's so hard. Yeah, I mean, so the question then becomes, Okay, there's been a lot of doomerism, there's been a lot of black pilling. You know, I love I love Rich Bears like a brother, but he's been very negative on some of the polling that he's seeing. 00:30:54 Speaker 1: Is this going to be enough? Is this this spark that lights the midterm? 00:30:59 Speaker 12: Yeah, a big shot arm just to see the president up there showing that, he showed the twenty twenty four energy again. And when I was with him down in Georgia at that rally, I could see sparks of it. 00:31:08 Speaker 1: I remember saying that on the show that when you went to Rome, just raised to room Georgia. 00:31:13 Speaker 12: Then he's giving that speech at the at the steel factory and we could see I could see, Hey, this doesn't seem like twenty twenty five or twenty twenty six. 00:31:21 Speaker 1: Trump, This seems like twenty twenty. 00:31:22 Speaker 4: And you and I were talking about it. I think people underestimate the weight of the world that exists on a president's shoulders constantly, day in, day out, day in day out, and to then have to turn around to be a showman, which Trump is very good at. But you know, you've been in the White House, you've been you've seen him behind closed doors, and the weight that he is under all the time. I think it's and he's almost eighty let's just be honest. I mean, he doesn't show signs of it, but I mean just I think maybe take us into the room. What I mean that that balancing act he has to do between making these incredibly difficult decisions in Iran or whatever, as well as having to be showman in chief, having to be the lead cheerleader. 00:32:03 Speaker 12: Look, this is something that I think everyone needs to understand, is that as much as he enjoys putting on the show. He is the greatest showman that we all saw that last night. There's no question that he takes this all very seriously. And when he meets with victims like he spent the day with the Angel Families, meeting with Arenas Rutska's parents, meeting with Erica, who you know, and they still talk regularly, that checking in the way that he does. He takes this very personally, very honestly. He's a much more emotional guy than I think people give him credit for, because he could be doing anything else with his life and people are trying to kill him on a regular basis. 00:32:44 Speaker 1: Blake will a test. We did a whole show on. 00:32:47 Speaker 4: This yesterday about that that speech with the Angel Families, and he said, I don't know how much longer I'm gonna be here. 00:32:54 Speaker 1: A lot of people are gunning for me. 00:32:55 Speaker 4: Yeah, And you think instantly of Charlie, You think instantly of what just happened at Marlo, and you think about the political violence problem on the left. You couldn't even get them to stand up in the gallery for a message against political violence. 00:33:08 Speaker 1: Blake, I want to bring you in here. 00:33:09 Speaker 4: I don't you know we're on set here, But you realize the weight of the world on President Trump. It's got to be an impossible balancing act. And I don't think we personalize him enough. 00:33:19 Speaker 8: Sometimes, yeah, well it's I sometimes think about that. 00:33:22 Speaker 2: It's got to. 00:33:22 Speaker 8: Be one of the most alien experiences in the world for the president that even when he's not president, he's been the most famous person in the world. I think you could safely say for a decade at this point. He's always been holding court. He has endless people who are talking to him, endless people who are trying to influence him, endless people who are trying to flatter him. And it does have and you know he can he is endlessly seeing himself on TV, and he knows there's a lot of people who would want him dead. I truly do wonder what would it be like to be that person. It's got to be one of the most unus usual existences that anyone has ever lived in the history of the world. And the fact that he's delivered on as much as he has in the past year, I think we should always be grateful in that context that he could very easily have said, he could have very easily made a call to a Democrat and said, I will go away and retire forever if you guys just leave me three billion dollars and stop trying to put me in jail. 00:34:23 Speaker 1: And he didn't do that. 00:34:24 Speaker 8: He instead came back to Washington made them angrier than ever. 00:34:32 Speaker 10: For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to Charliekirk dot com
