Tyler Robinson's Court Appearance + AI Founding Fathers

00:00:03 Speaker 1: My name is Charlie Kirk. 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. 00:00:24 Speaker 2: College is a scam, everybody. You got to stop sending your kids to college. 00:00:27 Speaker 1: You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. 00:00:31 Speaker 2: Go start at turning point. 00:00:32 Speaker 3: You would say college chapter. 00:00:33 Speaker 1: Go start aturning point, yould say high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. 00:00:37 Speaker 2: Sign up and become an activist. 00:00:39 Speaker 1: 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 2: Here I am. 00:00:46 Speaker 3: Lord, Use me. 00:00:48 Speaker 1: 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 2: All right, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show. It is Thursday, December eleventh, Blake, How you doing doing? Lovely? Doing lovely? Love to hear that. We are honored on this program to have a guest right out the gate who is a great American and a massive patriot and a good friend of the show's and that is, of course, Glenn Beck. Glenn Beck, can you hear us? Are we connected? I can? How are you wonderful? Good to see you? Hell? Yeah, I am. We're so honored to have you, Glenn. You of course interviewed Erica this morning as she is promoting Charlie's final book on behalf of her husband. This was when the book of the book was written, about a month it was finished, about a month before Charlie was taken from us, and she, you know, is doing this admirable, brave thing of going out and talking to people like you about that book. What was your conversation like tell us about it? Glenn? 00:02:07 Speaker 3: I just love her. Uh, you know, I didn't want to. I didn't I didn't want to get into you know, what she was talking about yesterday. And you know we've talked about this before privately. I think what's happening to everybody at TPUs A. It's just evil. I mean, it really is evil. It's it's I think it's emotional disturbance. It's mental health and evil all mixed up. And I've never seen anything like it. And what you guys have been accused of and what she's been accused of is just so I didn't want to talk to her about that. I think I asked her one question and I don't even remember who it was, but her her answer was so strong and so clear. But I really thought, because today I on my show, the whole show is really about finding the humanity again, because we're losing our humanity towards one another. How can you possibly how can you possibly treat Erica and you guys the way you've been treated? We're three months. I couldn't believe that when my producer said, you know, yesterday was the three month anniversary, like three month anniversary from what and from Charlie, And I'm like, three months. It's only been three months. It seems like a year has passed. And then I started thinking about all of the things that have been said about you guys, how we've gone from this amazing God movement to where we're at in three months. Just screams it's got to be evil. That is pushing all of this. But anyway, we had a great conversation about about Charlie very human. Uh you know how he was trying to not blow out. 00:04:11 Speaker 2: As a drenal glands. She didn't, she didn't know this. That's what happened to me. When I was at Fox. 00:04:15 Speaker 3: I had two staffs at a daytime staff and a night time staff, because you just you have to work all the time, all the time. And I slept for three hours a night. And you know, with as many performances and everything else you're doing all day long, you're a dreamal glance, just up down, up, down, updown. And she was saying the same thing was happening with him, and she said, if it you know, we needed the Sabbath and he knew that. And it's funny because that's exactly what happened with my wife. My wife was the one who's like, Sabbath day, keep the Sabbath day holy. 00:04:47 Speaker 2: And it's hard. 00:04:48 Speaker 3: And I asked her about it and she said, you know, we you know, we did kind of struggle with it a bit. She said, you know, if we couldn't make the Sabbath, he would divide. I had that time up throughout the week She's like and it was just so human because it was it was you know, we're not perfect, we are human, but we believe in it and so we're not going to become legalistic about it. We're going to do what we can to to obey God. And I just I just thought it was great. 00:05:23 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, listen, you've you've been amazing, Glenn, And yeah, I mean the on the one hand, it's like, you know, we're going to be addressing some of this on Monday on the fifteenth. I'm looking forward to it, trust me. And we've been trying our best to stay on mission on you know, stay focused. We've got a lot of just basic things that we got to get done on a daily basis around here, and we've been trying our best. But it's it's gone to a point and I was I was really grateful that Erica said what she said yesterday and we'll be addressing it, you know, But I would say this, some of it is just so laughably insane that that what are you going to say? You want to dignify some of the stuff with an answer. Some of it comes from I would say, probably a love for Charlie having a good faith and people want answers. I totally can respect that. But when it blurs into insinuations, innuendos, accusations, I think that's when it goes too far. And I think, you know, there will be a time and a place, and I believe all will be revealed in time. All will. 00:06:34 Speaker 3: We were talking, I asked her, I said, are you concerned about a a jury pool? You know, we're a year away. How do you get a jury that has not been tainted by all of this stuff? I mean, you may not see justice in this country and not you know, the first time, I first time I recognized how African Americans felt, because you know, as a white person, you're like, oh, well, you know, all of that's in the past, and we kind of solve that and Martin Luther King died, but we all kind of get it now, and you know, just stupid white people think. And and when oj Simpson, when that happened, I'm like, oh my gosh, this is a wholly different animal here. 00:07:28 Speaker 2: And you just mean, like the media circus around it is of a jer No. 00:07:32 Speaker 3: I mean the fact that the jury, the jury could look at that evidence and say nope, not guilty. And they, I think all of them, if not the majority of them, came back afterwards and said, yeah, that wasn't that was in the moment, you know, we we we were wrong about that. And how that that innocent verdict came out showed me that it's really hard. 00:08:00 Speaker 2: To get people to do. 00:08:03 Speaker 3: To stay neutral if they if they come into it with a certain mindset, it's really hard. Have you ever been on a jury. 00:08:11 Speaker 2: I've been on a. 00:08:12 Speaker 3: Jury before with a person that was a rapist stalker, and oh my gosh, have you ever been on a jury that it was a serious jury? 00:08:21 Speaker 2: No like that? 00:08:22 Speaker 3: No, No, It is so incredible because you try so hard not to bring your own feelings into it. You try really hard not to think of it as television, you know, like, well we solved in thirty minutes. You you are dealing with twelve, you know or eleven other people and and you can't you can't really get some of the questions that you really want answered answered. I mean I don't. I can't tell you how many times we brought the judge and it went, well, wait a minute, we don't understand this, and he's like, I can't help you. It is what it is, and it's so hard. You add on top of that a year of you know, is really the Jews and ericat Kirk that did it. You're going to have you have one person in that jury room that is coming in with that mindset. It's going to be impossible to convict. 00:09:20 Speaker 2: It's going to be well and I mean, here here's what I will say. So we've got actually a procedural hearing today with Tyler Robinson in Utah. It's mostly going to be about, you know, the conduct of the media and what they can show what they can't. The news is that he's going to be there in person and I have to but there's not going to be substantively it's going to be this is not a probable cause hearing. This is not an evidentiary of hearing. But that you know, the good news is I mean, I just encourage people read the charging document. Read the charging document right there at the beginning, and this thing. I mean, they have so much evidence, so much evidence that you've got to have at least some faith that you know that people are going to come back to their senses a little bit. Hey, everybody, this is Andrew Colvett, executive producer of The Charlie Kirk Show. Berna is proud to continue supporting Charlie Kirk's mission and the important work of turning Point USA because empowering Americans to defend their freedoms begins with protecting themselves, their families, and their communities. The Burna less lethal launcher looks like a firearm, but it isn't one. It fires powerful chemical, irritant and kinetic projectiles that can stop a threat in its tracks, giving you the time and space you need to get to safety. And now you can hear from Charlie in his own. 00:10:45 Speaker 1: Words, Burna is about preventing tragedy and preserving life without the consequences of using lethal measures. It's legal in all fifty states, requires no background checks, and over five hundred thousand units are in the hands of responsible citizens and law enforcement. Can be shipped directly to your door. I've personally tested the burn A pistol and can vouch for its effectiveness and its ease of use. 00:11:06 Speaker 2: Be prepared, be confident, be safe. Go to Berna b y r na dot com that's Burna dot com and see why tens of thousands of Americans are choosing Berna for peace of mind. Yeah, I mean so Glenn picking it up where we just left it. I mean, you know you. I again, I just encourage people to read the charging documents. Now there are there are legitimate questions that you could ask. Did people know things beforehand? Did people have where they queued off? There seemed to be stuff on social media that suggested people knew this was going to happen, or something was going to happen. I want to see where those investigations are at. I want to see where those investigations lead. Was he radicalized by somebody? Was there a group, was there multiple groups? Were there multiple people? Was there money involved? Where would that money come from? Was it foreign or domestic? I'm open to all of those questions. But I just encouraged people read the charging doc documents. They're very very thorough. 00:12:03 Speaker 3: Here, Andrew, here's the thing that doesn't make sense to me. I'm not hearing any of this stuff about Butler Pennsylvania. I'm not hearing any of this. I'm not hearing that the Jews tried to kill him, that you know, Trump's own staff tried to kill him. You know, we heard some that you know was the Secret Service in on it was the FBI. 00:12:20 Speaker 2: What did they know? When did they know it? 00:12:22 Speaker 3: How come there does this cover up? 00:12:23 Speaker 2: Et cetera, et cetera, But. 00:12:25 Speaker 3: Not not the kind of stuff, not that Milania was in on it. And and it just seems relentless, like it won't stop. I mean, I was, I was with you for the fundraiser on Saturday, and you know, you guys didn't ask me to come. I came out of my own support of your organization or whatever. And and I'm sitting there and I post something on Instagram. 00:12:54 Speaker 2: My gosh. 00:12:54 Speaker 3: The response from the people on my Instagram was, you must have sold out. Well, you're getting money from Israel, You're doing And I'm like, what is happening. It's the only way I can describe it. I've never I've done this for forty nine years now, and I've seen a lot of stuff in forty nine years of broadcast. I've never seen anything a like Charlie Kirk's funeral. I prayed for that for twenty years, a revival. 00:13:24 Speaker 2: I prayed. 00:13:24 Speaker 3: I stood in that room and I felt the spirit of God, and God came in and when people started talking about politics, he withdrew and they started talking about God again. He came back in. It was it was like unreal. I've never felt anything. 00:13:40 Speaker 2: Like it before. 00:13:41 Speaker 3: A miracle, a Moses size miracle, the same thing with darkness here. I've never seen anything like it. What's happening is players are being put on the field. You are sifting, right, You're being sifted. And where are you coming out? Are you gonna be on God's side? Are you're going to be on evil? And And I don't think people realize that. Maybe they do, but I'm very important times. 00:14:12 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I actually really agree. I think I think when you see an outpouring of the Holy Spirit like you saw at the Memorial, when you saw the vigils all across the country, when you saw people getting saved and baptized, when you saw church pews fill up, especially with young people, and it was it was Catholic churches, it was Protestant churches, it was Evangelical churches, it was across the board, Orthodox churches. You saw it everywhere. But when you see a move of God like that, it does make some sense that the forces of darkness would rise up to counter it. And I think the greater the move of God, the greater the forces of darkness that will rise up to counter it real quick. 00:14:56 Speaker 3: I remember I grew up in Seattle. I moved to Arizona and I saw dark shadows for the first time, and people thought I was stoned. I think because I just stood out there and I looked at the shadow of my hand on this because I grew up with clouds all the time, and I realized the brighter the light, the sharper the shadows, and that's what you're seeing right now. 00:15:14 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that's really well, said Glenn. We could talk about this all day, but we won't because there is news to cover, including you have been making some waves as well. It's not just us, You've been making some yourself with this, George Washington AI. This is quite the project that you've endeavored. And I I was texting back and forth with your producer Ricky, and she was sending me she was laughing about what she called it, the hater aide, which is pretty funny. So so you know, I will say when we when we lost Charlie and we've talked about it on the show before, we got all these people inquiring, you know, from AI companies and were like, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not going to make an AI chart. But that's not what you're doing here. But I think it it People get funny when they see people from that are not alive brought back to life. But you had your goal created. Let's not say, Okay, that's right when they when they when they are animated with AI. There you go. So tell us what this project is and what you were endeavoring to do. Uh, and and I you're you're sitting down having a conversation with an AI. George Washington. 00:16:25 Speaker 3: Okay, so this is really important. This AI is proprietary. 00:16:31 Speaker 2: It is uh. 00:16:32 Speaker 3: It is completely gated off from the rest of the Internet and everything else. 00:16:36 Speaker 2: And it only has original. 00:16:39 Speaker 3: Documents in it. So it has the Federalist papers, it has the Constitution, it has their writings, it has the sermons that they listen to about the freedoms of America. Anything that they said at the time influenced them. That's part of this. And it does not know me. It doesn't know George Soros, can't tell you anything about the United Nations or Donald Trump or anything. It is only from their documents and it's all fire walled off and it is perfect there's no hallucination because it is required to memorize all of the material. Regular eight AI with chat GPT does not do that. So this is a proprietary private. 00:17:24 Speaker 2: Bank, if you will. 00:17:26 Speaker 3: And you know it kills me because people are saying, my gosh, he sounds just like Glenn Beck. No, I just sound a little like the Founding Fathers because I know they're words. But what happens is I did an experiment on it. And what you're seeing there the picture if you happen to be watching it, if you're listening on radio, it's me sitting down at my interview desk with George Washington. He's in a T shirt because I don't think anybody is interested in nobody's going to connect to a guy in a powdered wig in a in a colonial suit. And he starts in at the beginning, and I said, we put a bunch of stuff in so he could look at the problems that we were facing. And I said, where did we go wrong? Or if it was you, where would you and the founder start to fix all of this? 00:18:14 Speaker 2: Well we had and he had our clip. Yeah, oh you do, okay, Yeah, I don't mean to cut you off. Glenn, But we have a clip I think of what you're what you're talking about here, it's forty nine seconds, so it's a little bit on the longer side, but it's really interesting. Go ahead and play two sixty four. 00:18:27 Speaker 4: My countryman. The danger, the greatest danger to our republic lies not in foreign arms or political faction. 00:18:34 Speaker 3: But interrupt you for a second, and you just dumb it down just a little. 00:18:38 Speaker 4: Okay, speak in today's language. Okay, Okay, I get it. Let me speak to Americans. If I'm honest, America's biggest problem is in political or economic. It's a moral. We've drifted from the virtues that make liv pretty possible in the first place. Freedom to be free, you have to have discipline, you have to have faith, you have to have character. And if you don't have any of those things, laws, laws can't stop anything, and they mean little government turns either weak or oppressive. 00:19:17 Speaker 3: So what you'd cut out there was at the beginning, I said, can you dumb it down? And he said, well, I have twenty nine points that are directly correlated with our documents. And I said, I know, I know, just dumb it down. What this will do will give you all of the original documents where he's pulling it from, you'll see it in their own handwriting, and then you can say, dumb it down, I don't understand that language. You know, I'm trying to share this with an eight year old and it will revamp it so it's understood at an eight year old level. This is a new tool to teach, but it has nothing to do with politics. It has everything to do with just their original words. And to watch how the media has come out and called this extremist, et cetera, et cetera. If you listen to what he said, when did personal responsibility? When did self control? When did rely on yourself? And don't look for a savior in a public office? When did all of these things become right wing controversial? Everything he said was absolute, common sense true, and you know you can find him in the twenty nine bullet points and the documents that he pulled them from. 00:20:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think it's I think it's fascinating, Glenn, I really do. It's called in the it's called Torch. Is that the company how to get torches? 00:20:47 Speaker 3: Yeah? 00:20:48 Speaker 2: Torch. 00:20:48 Speaker 3: You can just go to glennback dot com. It launches on January fifth, and it's a new project of mine. It'll be an app that you can get uh and George AI has a long way to go on it, but it's it's completely different. 00:21:02 Speaker 2: Well done, well done, Glenn, It's I think it's fascinating. I'm gonna check it out. God bless you, Glenn back. We'll see you soon. I'm sure you know. I've been thinking about how much culture is shaped by what we choose to watch, because, whether we realize it or not, the stories we invite into our homes shape the way we see the world. That's why what Angel Studios is doing matters. And right now they're having their biggest sale of the year. For a limited time, you can get an Angel Guild membership for his low as six ninety nine a month for twelve months, plus two free tickets to see David in theaters. Angel Studios is leading a quiet revolution in entertainment.

When you join the Angel Guild, you don't just stream entertainment. 00:21:51 Speaker 2: You help create it, and you help decide what the next generation of stories will look like. Take advantage of the lowest price of the year. Become a member of the Angel Guild and get your two free tickets to see David in theaters this Christmas. Go to Angel dot com slash Charlie. That's Angel dot com slash Charlie to learn more. All right, so we have a hearing today, Yes, and Tyler Robinson. 00:22:16 Speaker 5: Tyler Robinson, he's in court today. Had digital hearings before. This is an actual in person one in court. It's We'll be honest, it's not a very big one in the grand scheme of things. Other than that it's an early one. This is not about it's not the trial itself. It's not about evidence related to the trial. It's not jury selection any of those things. It is a pre trial hearing to review case status. The most important thing about it. They're discussing whether to have cameras in the courtroom. We of course strongly support having cameras in the courtroom. Erica has endorsed having cameras in the courtroom. Robinson's lawyers have argued there should not be that. It would They literally have a line in here. They've warned it it would create a content tornado around the case. It is high profile, and they say this would damage the jury pool. That's their argument. The notable thing about it. He will be allowed to appear in street clothes rather than a prison uniform. He is going to be restrained, shackled, shackled, but it has to be sort of light shackles, and they're not allowed the press is not allowed to photograph him where those are visible. So he'll he'll be restrained, but you're not allowed to see him be restrained. 00:23:29 Speaker 2: And so apparently the rationale for this is, you know, in the United States, you are innocent until proving guilty, right, it is the burden of proof lies on the state to make their case, and so there. But there's also some like legal three D chess going on here, right, because the defense if he comes out in an orange jumpsuit and he's shackled and he sort of presents as guilty right visually, then the defense on appeal could argue any conviction would have to be them thrown out because he was it was he buys the jury. 00:24:04 Speaker 5: There's endless layers. You can have endless appeals on everything. And the strategy that goes into that, Yeah, do you want do you want him to look different, because that will buy us the jury one way, bias them the other way. The restraints, they can make any number of motions on this. 00:24:21 Speaker 2: Yeah, and apparently the rationale for having him restrained is that, you know, there if you look at the charging documents, which again I recommend everybody just google it. You know, Tyler Robinson, you know charging documents, they come right up. And you know, there is a point at which his parents call Tyler Robinson and say that looks like you. The footage that we see that looks like you. You know, did you do it or whatever. He confesses to them that, and then he says something about Charlie having too much hate and you can't negotiate the hate out or whatever at that point, and then he apparently he tells his parents that he's going to take his own life. 00:25:02 Speaker 5: Yeah, so they're doing this. The charges against him are capital charges. They can carry the death penalty. Prosecutors have said they're planning to seek it. 00:25:10 Speaker 2: And so. 00:25:12 Speaker 5: We have a history of people who are facing severe charges they can attempt to escape using violence, They can attempt to harm themselves, and so that's that's the purpose of restraint. 00:25:22 Speaker 2: Yeah, the point is, so he's he's indicated at least at some level, thoughts of suicide. And what I was told was that even a pen could be used as a potential weapons, right, So that's why they want to keep him shackled, even if it's light, shackled out of camera view, you know, assuming he puts his hands underneath the table or something so you can't see it. But so today is going to be all about media access and there isn't going to be a portion of the proceeding that is not public, And apparently that's going to be about security issues. Obviously that makes sense. High profile case. They want to make sure that the venue secure and safe, and they probably don't want to share that information with the public about ingress egress, you know, how they're going to be approaching the security of the actual venue in which the trial has heard. So I was told, don't expect it to be super substantive, you know, street closed, lightly shackled. He will not speak, He will acknowledge his presence, but that's probably all we're going to hear from Tyler Robinson. So you know, can you acknowledge that you are the person that we have in this courtroom, he'll say yes essentially pretty much. 00:26:31 Speaker 5: That'll be reading through the details on this, you realize just how exceptional this case actually is because it is one of the things that's going on. This is the first high profile criminal case that has occurred in the artificial intelligence era. So I'm reading one of the reports here Attorney Kathy Nester, one of his attorneys, I believe she's pointed out there are already digitally altered versions of Robinson's, you know, his court photos, like the photos that we've actually seen of him in custody. So people have created versions where he has an outburst or where he begins crying. So they've you know, used AI to create video where there isn't one. Yeah, and we've had that. Of course with the shooting itself, it's going to be you can somewhat sympathize with them point out that this is going to be a totally unprecedented thing, and you have to appreciate that we are. This is what the reality is going to be going forward for every criminal case, for every criminal case, imaginaal, you're going to have people AI altering videos or creating them from whole cloth. That's a real thing. If they don't allow cameras in the courtroom. We may well have people saying this is an undercover video that was taken at the trial and it's entirely generated with AI. This is getting way beyond the case. But I'm really shuddering for the future. 00:27:51 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean listen, I mean Glenn alluded to it. The craziness that we've had to endure is next level. I mean, obviously you're sort of realizing that this is the high profile nature of this, of what happened Charlie's fame. You know, we knew it was going to be huge, but I don't think anybody knew that it was going to take as many turns as already has to Glenn's points three months in and yeah, we have this first uh procedural like court hearing today. It's not going to be much, but even this, who knows how it's going to be spun. Who knows how it'll be spun? 00:28:32 Speaker 1: It? 00:28:32 Speaker 5: Really it does another thing. We should have prosecutor from you. We're to talk about this, just because I do think we've we've talked about the theories that are spinning around. I do think a lot of that is produced by there's a lot of psychic energy around this. As it were, people think about this case a lot in effectively, don't mean that in sort of a literal little mind powers people. There's pent there's pent up passion for it, and this could get released if people were able to see a trial unfolding while they're all thinking about this, that they could say, Okay, here is the defendant, here's the evidence, here is the jury selection, here is the trial, here is the verdict, And if it happened in a timely way, which our constitution guarantees the right to a speedy trial. And if you look historically, high profile criminal cases have happened quickly within the past hundred years, where they're able to put people on trial in a reasonable length of time. But now it's this combination of everything in the court system has slowed down, but everything in the media ecosystem has sped up. So in the day of nightly news and no online, the O. J. Simpson trial could go on for a year and people wouldn't totally lose their minds. But imagine if the O. J. Simpson trial was happening today, but there was this year long delay after this giant, spectacular car chase and then actually having a serious trial. 00:29:51 Speaker 2: Go on, and imagine imagine if there was AI and yeah and AI, imagine if there was you know, I mean, all the elements of this really due amount to an explosive media circus. The media Tornado thing totally is legitimate. But to Erica's point, which he said with Jesse Waters, you know, everything that we've done has been hyper scrutinized and hyper analyzed. Every smile, every every comment, everything so analyzed, and we deserve to see this trial play out before the media. We get to see the I want to see the evidence, uh, you know, presented in a factual, straightforward way. I want I want almost the American people to be educated in encivics of it, because it is so easy. 00:30:39 Speaker 5: For these AI generated things to happen, and because there is so many there are so many alternative outlets for just generating wild stuff that content Tornado exists regardless. It is actually in that case, genuinely important to have the real thing out there existing, and while people try to manipulate it, yes, inevitably, but it does have to exist because if you have no real thing to compete against it, it's going to be it's gonna be a calamity. 00:31:05 Speaker 2: Well, and I want to compare what we're doing today and the Tyler Robinson trial versus like what's going on with Mangioni. So Mangioni is doing there, Yeah, this is also taking forever. You know, he's having a probable cause hearing in New York City, and that's actually where you start to hear stuff new information, right, So mangione is they're presenting new body cam footage. The defense is saying that some of that evidence was seized illegally, that they didn't have a warrant. So you're starting to see actually the the chess moves by the defense and by the prosecution in that case, because they're at a further juncture at that trial. Right. So we're not there yet, but when we get to an evidentiary hearing, a probable cause hearing, which is a step in the process that says is there enough evidence to take this to a full trial? Right? I think in my Mangioni's case, of course it is going to go to a full trial. In Tyler Robinson's case, of course, it's going to go to a full trial. But that's technically what that step is for and that's when you'll find out is there enough evidence to proceed? Obviously there is, you know, so don't expect that today. But I think I could. I could share your frustration, Blake in a massive way, especially being on this end of it where you are a victim of this circumstance, this terrible tragedy where our friend was murdered in cold blood, and there's this vacuum of time right of where people want answers to certain questions. You can only get those answers in a trial. And yet we have to wait here. We were probably looking at March April for this, right and it's it's like, you know, if you're on this end of it and they can drag that out, yeah, and they could, Yeah, they could find ways to drag that out, and then you're probably looking into twenty twenty seven for an actual trial. That's what we're staring down right now. I know, and you know, and again if you if you read the charging documents, I mean, they've they've got this kid so that the case is so watertight. Again, there's fair questions to ask around it. There really are. And I'm trying to be as gracious and generous as I can to that. I have questions. We've chased down every lead we can possibly imagine that you can imagine. I mean, people SendUS stuff all the time, and we're always sending those along to the authorities. But man, this case is very strong, very water tight. 00:33:28 Speaker 6: This is Lane Schumberger, Chief investment Officer and founding partner of y Refi. It has been an honor and a privilege to partner with Turning Point and for Charlie to endorse us. His endorsement means the world to us, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Turning Point for years to come. Now hear Charlie in his own words, tell you about why Refi. 00:33:48 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you guys about why refight dot com. That is why are e f y dot com.

Go to y refight dot com. That is y r e f y dot com Private student loan debt relief yrefight dot com. 00:34:37 Speaker 2: All right, so I mean before we move on, is there anything you want to say about this. 00:34:41 Speaker 5: Or I think I mean for now, I think we've said it. There should be cameras. 00:34:45 Speaker 2: It's at noon Mountain time, so it's gonna be right at the end, right at the end of our show, and then we'll tune over to Well we'll probably. 00:34:52 Speaker 5: We'll probably hit it on Thought Crime tonight. If anything YEP noteworthy happens, sure we'll want to do that. Uh So, we just got an email from Allison who says asks if there's an update on the redistrict between fight in Indiana, Well, which. 00:35:04 Speaker 2: I want to react to that because there is yes. 00:35:06 Speaker 5: They're voting today. 00:35:07 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a huge one. 00:35:08 Speaker 5: We need twenty six votes from the Republicans senators of Indiana. We have twenty two confirmed yes votes. I will be frank, I am pessimistic about them passing it. But then we move into. 00:35:20 Speaker 2: Stage two, which is primary. You have to primary them. We're going to be involved in that, Yeah, in a big way. So this is the redistricting fight, which would result in a nine oh states. You'd have nine conservative districts, zero liberal or Democrat districts. And what you need to get that done is you need twenty six votes in the Senate. We have twenty two confirmed yeses. We are pessimistic that we are going to get the four additional votes that we need. Now, I think, what is just forty republic. 00:35:50 Speaker 5: We have forty thirty nine Republicans and a non caucusing Republican which I don't even want to find out what the heck that means. 00:35:57 Speaker 2: Yes, and we only need twenty thirty. 00:35:59 Speaker 5: Nine Republicans ten Democrats. You haven't forty forty Republicans ten Democrats. You have an eighty percent Republican legislature and they can't get a bare majority to get two extra Republicans in the US House, right and when we you know, you might have thought this was a bad fight to start, but it's sort of like it's sort of like saying, oh, I just don't agree with the way, like what our battle plan is in this war. So I'm just gonna go pout and sit at home or something. No, the battle has been joined. Democrats have redone their map in California. They're redoing their map. I think in Maryland they did it. They're looking for maps they can redo. Yeah, they're planning to do it in Virginia. The battle is joined. You have to join the fight, or switch flipping parties, or just quit, leave and let yourself be replaced by someone who will fight. As Charlie would say, lead, follow, or get out of the way. 00:36:52 Speaker 2: Get out of the way. And here we made some news on Friday. I think we were the cover of front page of Politico. But it is we are getting involved in the Indiana fight on the turning Point action side. So we are going to bring our organizational muscle over to Indiana. There's gonna be a lot of packs. C four's grassroots, local grassroots in Indiana. We had Citizen Kane from Citizen Free Press join us earlier this week, and he said, the grass roots in Indiana, He's a local there, is fired up and they're upset with their elected representatives in that state. I think they have every right to be. And I'll reiterate this point because this You know, a lot of attention goes to swing states in our election cycles, okay, because those obviously determine who's going to be the president. You gotta win the swing states to become the president's very high profile. We take our eye off the ball when it comes to these red predictably red strongholds like Indiana. Indiana is very conservative, it's very Republican. We to Resident Trump won in twenty twenty four by twenty plus points in the state of Indiana. It's a very red state. But what happens is the incumbent political class gets so entrenched in these in these states that over the years, especially when you have a convulsive moment like President Trump coming onto the scene, the incumbent political class ceases to line up with where the base voters are at. So you have these moments where the base wants redistricting. As you said, the fight has been joined. You either get to join the fight or you get to stay and be an enemy in that fight. 00:38:21 Speaker 5: At this point, you are just straight up voting. Do you want more Republicans in Congress or fewer? Yeah, it's a really powerful vote. And then take your pick, and I want fewer Republicans. 00:38:31 Speaker 2: Why are you a Republican? And there will be congressional level spending deployed in the state of Indiana. So if you get on board and you vote to redistrict, you will be marked as safe. If you vote against it, you will be marked for a primary. And that is that is the essentral bargain that is being offered to the senators in the great state of Indiana. 00:38:54 Speaker 5: We don't like doing this. No, it's more fun to run against Democrats. It's more fun to spend against Democrats. But frankly, sometimes you have to make sure that if your bluff is called, that you can meet it. 00:39:07 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and I mean it's not even a question. We're going to be all out. We've already begun hiring process, We've already been deploying our staff in there, meeting with the local grass roots. Everybody's fired up, everybody's ready to go and I mean, it will probably take a process. Just so you think of the time frame here, it will probably take all the way through twenty twenty eight to get this done, to get a state legislature in place in Indiana, to get it all the way across the finish line. But listen, your four vote shy, Let's see how close we get. Maybe, just maybe enough senators are going to hear the call of their voters in the great state of Indiana that they will change their vote, get to that twenty six vote threshold, and we'll get the job done. We won't need all this outside attention, all the drama, all the drama. There's so much drama going on in this country right now. I would love to stay focused on the mission. I would love to stay focused on the mission. You know, it occurs to me like how hard we worked over the years to stay mission focused. Gotta stay mission focus. 00:40:09 Speaker 5: And then you you kind of you have this rude awakening where you go into this state where you're not you are admittedly not necessarily super engaged with their locals. We're super engaged with state level Arizona politics. You go to Nebraska, you go to Indiana, and they have their grievances going back years. They have their arrangements going back years, and you just come in and you just have to roll your eyes. This is what you guys are focused on, This is what you think matters the most right now, because you are gravely mistaken. 00:40:38 Speaker 2: There word and Truth used it for a reason. It was not uncalled for in that particular Truth Social post. 00:40:51 Speaker 6: For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to Charliekirk dot com
