Leon Neyfak
When I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why Benghazi?
Charlie Kirk
The truth became a web of lies.
Leon Neyfak
From prologue projects and Pushkin Industries. This is Fiasco Benghazi.
Commercial Announcer
What difference at this point does it make?
Leon Neyfak
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Jason Whitlock
The Charlie Kirk show starts now.
Charlie Kirk
Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller. Stephen, you're such a superstar. Stephen. They called Stephen the other day a very bad name. And I said, you should sue them. Stephen.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Representative Pierson, you just heard Stephen Miller advising National Guard troops that they are unleashed.
Commercial Announcer
What does this mean for your constituents in Memphis?
Charlie Kirk
It's dangerous. And this has been dangerous since it was suggested by the administration to go after Democratic cities, but particularly cities with black leadership. Stephen Miller is known white nationalist and supports white supremacist ideology. He bragged about a ramped up federal presence there in a speech that I'm sure sounded tough in his head.
Andrew Colvett
You know, the.
Charlie Kirk
The gang bangers that you deal with, they think that they're ruthless.
Andrew Colvett
They have no idea how ruthless we are.
Charlie Kirk
They think they're tough. They have no idea how tough we are. They think that they're hardcore. We are so much more hardcore than they are. Loser. This is your champion right here.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Anytime that we play something from Stephen Miller, it would be journalistic integrity to point out that he is a white supremacist and he is the brainchild behind this policy. That's not my opinion. That's actual fact. And for him to purport lies from the Oval Office as a white supremacist, there's a Democrat in Texas who's actually.
Andrew Colvett
Running for Congress who said last night.
iHeart Radio Announcer
During an interview, when talking about fighting Republicans and this administration, quote, I'm from the hood, okay?
Terrance Bates
So if you hit me in my.
Andrew Colvett
Face, I'm not going to punch you.
Terrance Bates
Back in your face.
Andrew Colvett
I'm going to go across your neck. This has obviously really upset those folks.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Over at Turning Point USA after the Charlie Kirk assassination. Just your response to that kind of.
Andrew Colvett
Rhetoric, Very jarring rhetoric. And I think it's very unacceptable.
Caller or Guest
I hope the people of Texas will.
Andrew Colvett
Do the right thing and reject this person's candidacy. It should have no place in American politics.
Charlie Kirk
Should the Virginia Attorney general nominee, Jay Jones drop out of the race over those texts that have been the focus of this race. Yeah, I think the text that I think everybody points to. He's apologized about that. I. People make mistakes. They do. It's one thing if someone's doing it repeatedly.
Andrew Colvett
Right.
Charlie Kirk
If you're making comments repeatedly that are like that, that no doubt that was an offensive thing to write. You've donated $20,000 to Jay Jones.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah.
Charlie Kirk
It's been a tough PR week for the GOP. Last week, POLITICO published a Young Republican group chat loaded with horrible messages like Love Hitler. Then a Republican congressional staffer was seen on Zoom with a Nazi swastika American flag. All right, Yvonne, let's reset the counter days since last Republican Nazi thing.
Jason Whitlock
There you go.
Charlie Kirk
There's no such thing as a Nazi streak. You got any Nazi in you?
Tyler Boyer
You are not.
Charlie Kirk
There are lots of authoritarians that I could point to. It happens that I know best because I helped build a Holocaust museum. Sitting next to Holocaust survivors about what the Nazis did in those early years. I understand. I'm not talking about the Holocaust. I'm talking about what they were doing. Taking away people's rights, arresting people, asking them for papers. Early on. In an authoritarian regime, wherever it is in the world throughout history, this is what happens. It's the beginning of something very bad for. The federal Audit found California had issued 62,000 CDLS drivers who entered illegally. John. Or do not have a permanent legal status as required by the feds. California sanctuary laws prohibit asking applicants their immigration status. Governor Newsom said there's not a problem. Back to you. Did I hear you right? Did you say 62,000? That's correct. Oh, my goodness. It's a federal audit. But I have started going to church.
Andrew Colvett
Every now and again.
Jason Whitlock
Yeah.
Tyler Boyer
Yeah.
Charlie Kirk
Do you enjoy it?
Andrew Colvett
I love it. Yeah. It's a bu. I do, too. It's a bunch of people that are.
Charlie Kirk
Going to try to make their lives better, trying to be a better person. I'm really interested in what these people are trying to say. I think there's something to it, and there's a reason why it resonates with people. And Christianity in particular is the most fascinating to me because there's this one person that everybody agrees existed that somehow.
Andrew Colvett
Or another had the best plan for how human beings should interact with each other. But look, I don't blame people for saying that.
Charlie Kirk
I'm a political guy.
Andrew Colvett
That is my day job, right? And so I'm focused on the second most important thing that I think a human being can focus on. So then of course everyone says, what's the first thing? Okay, well, the first thing is winning souls for Jesus Christ.
Charlie Kirk
Most important thing. Well then, Charlie, what's the second thing?
Andrew Colvett
Let's make sure you can do the first thing.

Leon Neyfak
When I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten they called me a masochist Rolled their eyes or just asked why Benghazi?
Charlie Kirk
The truth became a web of lies.
Leon Neyfak
It's almost a dirty word, one that connotes conspiracy theory.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Leon Neyfak
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
Charlie Kirk
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up. You put two and two together.
Leon Neyfak
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Jason Whitlock
Benghazi is a Rosetta stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
Leon Neyfak
I'm Leon Naifak from Prologue projects and Pushkin Industries. This is Fiasco Benghazi.

iHeart Radio Announcer

Charlie Kirk
You found the place for truth. The voice of a generation that still has the will to believe in the greatest country in the history of the world. This is the Charlie Kirk Show.
Andrew Colvett
Buckle up.
Charlie Kirk
Here we go. All right.
Andrew Colvett
Welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show. Andrew Colvett, executive producer of this fine show, behind the microphone again today. Honored to be with you all, from sea to shining sea. Tyler Boyer, COO of Turning Point Action, joins me. We had a great thought crime last night. Encourage you guys to check that out. We talked about a lot of stuff. We're gonna hit some of it again today, especially about this NBA story with Stephen A. Smith's biggest fan. I think you could call him. That would be Jason Whitlock. He's gonna be joining us for the second half of this hour and then we're going to be doing ama. But it's really sort of like, ask us anything.
Tyler Boyer
Yep.
Andrew Colvett
We noticed that you all had a lot of questions about stuff that was on the political side. Turning Point Action. So Tyler is gonna be joining us with that. I think I can get to like 90% of it, but there's a few points where I'm like, I better ask Tyler. So glad to have you in the. In the chair today, Tyler, for that. So we've got. I'm gonna. I'm gonna issue a little bit of a spicy opening here. Just a little bit on the spicy side. So young ears under 11, just mute just for this one moment. Because the old expression goes, there are lies, there are damned lies. That was the spicy part. Forgive me. And then there are statistics. But I think the expression should do. Should be there are lies, there are Damned lies. And then there are Democrats. I cannot get over how easily Democrats lie about stupid stuff, things that are verifiably untrue. They will just say it, even when the proof of the lie is threaded in the same Twitter thread X thread. And I. And so when you start kind of going one by one by one, when they do it in quick succession, and it's just really, really dumb, it's hard not to unsee it. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. And I think that is actually their. Their point, that's their plan, that's their strategy, is to just lie. And then when you call them out on it, they go, well, you know, oh, well, we're still going to say it because it advances our narrative. And you're like, well, I guess I don't know what to do here anymore. And we obviously saw that in the aftermath of Charlie's assassination, where we would debunk these clips that were going around about something Charlie supposedly said or he said, something racist. And then we would show you the context. And obviously it was clear that it was not what they were presenting it as. The context mattered. It added nuance and clarity to the point he was making. But they're doing it again, and I have to just start with this first one. Actually, Caroline Levitt thanked me on X for this, which I appreciate. But let's just show this image. This is from the Democrats own X handle. So it's at the Democrats. So when I say the Democrats do something, this is kind of what I mean. Right. So throw up. Image 388. And this is an image of Caroline Levitt, White House Press Secretary, saying the ballroom is the President's main priority. And so you saw, I mean, Gavin Newsom put this out. Obviously, the Democrat handles a bunch of the Democrat accounts, doubled, tripled, quadrupled down on this insane thing. So what are they trying to say, Tyler? Of course, that the Democrat. Or that President Trump's main priority is the construction of this East Ballroom, East Wing of the White House, a big ballroom, by the way. Presidents have wanted a ballroom space, an event space at the White House for a long time. Even Shaun White, who is a BLM activist, and, you know, I would say this was a pretty sane thing he said. So I don't even know how to take it. I mean, he said that, listen, this is not a big deal. There's nothing particularly historic about the East Wing of the White House. Of all the parts of the White House, the East Wing is probably the least historic. So he's making some space to put this big ballroom in. And they want you to believe that the president doesn't care about peace in the Middle east, which he secured. And by the way, J.D. vance flew to Israel to help secure it and keep it going. He doesn't care about, you know, the economy. Oh, by the way, the economy's up 36%. The stock market's up 36% since the tariff apocalypse. Oh, that he doesn't care about crime. Oh, wait, you can walk in the streets of D.C. again. Oh, that he doesn't care about law and order. Oh, well, he keeps winning judicial rulings over and over and over again. That he doesn't care about our military advantage. Oh, he's investing in the military. He's making the military great again, strong again. Pete Hegset's doing a great job, Secretary of War, improving standards in our military. So they want you to think that all the president cares about is a vanity project, which he's spending his own money for, to build this ballroom for future presidents to also use. Do you know that the White House typically spends millions and millions of dollars every year on tents and outdoors event equipment? This is a true story. But when you actually listen to what Caroline Levitt had to say, it becomes very apparent that it's just a lie. It's such a lie that it's. It's just shocking that they would still insist on lying about something so plainly obvious. Play cut 387 addition to the ballroom.
Charlie Kirk
And the Rose Garden patio.
Tyler Boyer
Is the President looking at any other renovations or significant kind of projects here.
Charlie Kirk
At the White House?
Caller or Guest
Not to my knowledge, no.
Andrew Colvett
But he's a builder at heart, clearly. And so his. His heart and his mind is always.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Churning about how to improve things here.
Andrew Colvett
On the White House grounds.
Commercial Announcer
But at this moment in time, of.
Andrew Colvett
Course, the ballroom is really the President's main priority. So she's asked about renovations. Are there any other renovations that. That the President is thinking about Tyler. And she says no. He's basically just focused on this. He's a. He's a builder, though, so his mind's always turning. But this is his main priority. And yet the Democrats take it and make it look like a giant lie. Have you ever seen a big lie from the Democrats?
Tyler Boyer
Tyler had a few.
Andrew Colvett
And by the way, you were telling me when we walked in that in the Obama administration, millions and millions of dollars were spent on White House renovations, but we don't talk about that.
Tyler Boyer
Yeah, almost $400 million were spent by. During the Obama administration on, you know, renovating and upgrading the White House. They spent a ton of money on the West Wing. They spent a ton. A ton of money on the East Wing. So some of this, I think, is. Is way, you know, overblown. Obviously, the President, you just said, is a builder. And every single White House administration that's come through, I can tell you this. We've hosted more events with the White House during the Trump years than any other organization. We certainly hosted more organizational type conjunctive stuff with the White House than anything that was held during the Biden administration because they did nothing. The Biden administration actually got rid of the only real congregative congregation space in the White House. So in. In the.
Jason Whitlock
In the.
Tyler Boyer
The wing where they host all of.
Andrew Colvett
The events, it was the East Wing, right?
Tyler Boyer
No, so. So the. All the administrative building, so the Eisenhower building, where that's where all the offices are, there's a space that's there that could host about 200 people. The Biden administration actually got rid of it because. Remember that fake set?
Andrew Colvett
Yeah. We did our show from the. Oh, yeah, that's right.
Jason Whitlock
Last year.
Tyler Boyer
Yeah, they were there. So that was the. That used to be the space. That was the only space on campus, essentially, where you could host a few hundred people. And the President would come down and then he'd speak. And it was great because he could just walk across from the West Wing.
Andrew Colvett
Just there.
Tyler Boyer
I mean, it's pretty far away.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah.
Tyler Boyer
And that was the only space. The Biden administration got rid of it so he could have his little fake.
Andrew Colvett
Set, which is so weird, actually. So there's nothing show at the White House.
Tyler Boyer
So. But there's. This is what people need to understand. There's nothing on the White House grounds where you can get hundreds of people together for a speaking event. You can't do any of that. And that's really important because the President can't just, like, walk.
Andrew Colvett
Well, yeah. Here's the actual truth is that if the President has to go to an event venue outside of the White House, do you understand how much that costs? Just in security fees, moving, like Secret Service pd, all the things that go into it is extraordinary, actually.
Tyler Boyer
It has to be millions and millions of dollars totally every time.
Andrew Colvett
Just in D.C. yeah. This is the best return on investment that you can imagine by allowing the President to stay put and let people come to him, which everybody's happy to do, and go to an event at the White House. And there you see the images of the beautiful new East Wing Ballroom that is gonna be absolutely enjoyed by everybody. And this is what I love. Even Sean King is saying that this is going to be, this is no big deal. All the presidents have wanted this space and President Trump. This is privately financed. This is not a big deal. But there's more lies coming up and we're gonna get to them. We'll be.

Andrew Colvett
Show welcome back to THE Charlie Kirk Show. I want to tell you really quickly about our friends over@why refi.com, why refi.com did you know that private student loan debt in this country totals over $300 billion? And about 45 billion of that is labeled as distressed. So what does Yrefi do if you find yourself in that situation? They help you refinance distressed or defaulted private student loans that others will not touch. They provide you with a custom loan payment based on your ability to pay. So you're not going to have some monthly bill that is make it so you can't eat or afford your rent, things like that. You can finally take control of your student loan situation with a plan that works for your monthly budget. Because of private student loan debt, so many Americans feel stuck and helpless and they've even lost hope. Why Refi gives you a light at the end of the tunnel. So take advantage of the folks at Y Refi. And beyond that, they are people that have stuck by, stood by this show. They've stood by tpusa, They've stood by Charlie for so many years.

If you're watching, call today, 888-yrefi34yrefi.com check them out. They can help you. It's not a call center. They're going to take care of you. So we are going to. So there's basically, I've lined up a couple of different lies here, Tyler. And we've got Jason Whitlock coming at the halfway point of the hour. So we'll see how many we can get to. But Leticia James is now claiming that she is a victim of a justice system which has been used as a tool of revenge, a justice System which has been weaponized. She is literally the worst person on planet Earth to to hurl those accusations at anybody. She was the poster child of a weaponized judicial, judicial system and justice system because that's what she ran on. I'm telling you, there's lies, there's damn lies, and then there's Democrats. This is so brazen and so idiotic that it's hard to fathom. You saw the Caroline Levitt example where she was obviously talking about renovations and the Democrats are running with it anyway. And now you're seeing the poster child for weaponizing her office for political ends. Now, crime victim, we're gonna get to that with radio in just two seconds. All right. Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. Andrew Colvett here with Tyler Boyer, COO of Turning Point Action. We've got Jason Whitlock coming up at the halfway point of this hour. So next segment, and then we've got an AMA ask us anything. So if you want to join that, go to members.charlie kirk.com and sign up today. You could be a part of our show an hour, too. So I have to get to this. Letitia James is driving me absolutely nuts. So she is apparently accused of using her second home and basically listing it in such a way it's mortgage fraud, where she says she's going to live in it or it's going to be a private resident. She ends up renting it out. So she said, I mean, it's not a huge amount of money that she saved over there. It's like 20,000 bucks in interest or something. But here's the trick. She ran for Attorney General of the state of New York, promising that if you elect me, if you just give me your vote, I will come after President Trump. I will prosecute, I will find a crime. I will find something to go after him about. And so now she's been charged and she's pleaded not guilty. That's breaking news this morning. She's pleaded not guilty. And this is what she has to say. Play Cup 400.
iHeart Radio Announcer
This is not about me.
Andrew Colvett
This is about all of us and.
iHeart Radio Announcer
About a justice system which has been.
Andrew Colvett
Weaponized.
iHeart Radio Announcer
A justice system which has been been used as a tool of revenge against those individuals who simply did their job and who stood up for the rule of law.
Andrew Colvett
Ah, you just stood up for the rule of law. Is that what you set your take, Tyler? She just stood up for the rule of law.
Tyler Boyer
It's unbelievable that we have literal AGs across the country that are running on going after political Opponents that they're running on this. So they're telling before they even get into office that they're going to prosecute unknown crimes. Like you said, they're going to find crimes in some cases to go after political opponents, in this case, Trump. And now she's saying that the system is being weaponized against.
Andrew Colvett
Well, because there are lies, there are damned lies, and then there are Democrats. I'm not. This is how it is. It's like, I want a country where we have unity. I want a country where we can look across the aisle and actually have debates. Like, people talk like John Fetterman. It's like, I'm not gonna call you a Nazi or a fascist. And then we have this situation. And again, we have told you time and time again that, you know, we are open to dialogue. We want open debate in this country. This is what Charlie lived for. And yet this is what, this is what we're stuck with. Let's go ahead and play cut402.
iHeart Radio Announcer
President Trump cannot avoid justice in the great state of New York.
Andrew Colvett
She also went on the View. She said this multiple times. We have multiple campaign stops where she was going on the air, and she was basically bragging about the fact that she was going to get Trump. So this is, this is not a. This is not hyperbole. This is not speculation. And just for the sake of getting to the next story, because Letitia James deserves very little, a little of our time, I want to get to the next lie, and I'll talk about this with Jason Whitlock as well, but that Stephen Miller is a white nationalist, white supremacist or whatever. They've said it so many times, it's hard to keep up. And I want to get your thoughts and opinions. Send us your emails. Freedom. Charliekirk.com Should Stephen Miller sue the mainstream news media for saying things like this? Plague cut 366.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Representative Pierson, you just heard Stephen Miller advising National Guard troops that they are unleashed. What does this mean for your constituents in Memphis?
Charlie Kirk
It's dangerous. And this has been dangerous since it was suggested by the administration to go after Democratic cities, but particularly cities with black leadership. Stephen Miller is known white nationalist and supports white supremacist ideology.
Andrew Colvett
Oh, interesting. Okay, interesting. And then there's Tiffany Cross at cnn who just parrots it. Same as. Same as rhett pearson there.
iHeart Radio Announcer
368 that we play something from Stephen Miller. It would be journalistic integrity to point out that he is a white supremacist and he is the brainchild behind this policy, that's not my opinion. That's actual fact. And for him to purport lies from the Oval Office as a white supremacist, I don't know.
Caller or Guest
It should be pointed out.
Andrew Colvett
So President Trump's had enough of this, Tyler. He gave Stephen Miller some unsolicited advice yesterday at the White House play cut 365.
Charlie Kirk
Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller. Stephen, you're such a superstar. Stephen. They called Stephen the other day a very bad name. And I said, you should sue them. Stephen.
Jason Whitlock
No.
Andrew Colvett
So what do you think? Should he sue?
Tyler Boyer
Yeah, of course.
Andrew Colvett
I totally agree.
Jason Whitlock
Yeah.
Tyler Boyer
I mean, Stephen Miller is a senior adviser to the president right now. He is in charge of me a lot. You know, obviously the moves that President Trump has made have been positive for the country. I mean, look at what's happened to Washington, D.C. washington, D.C. since they actually cracked down and cleaned up. The city is a livable, visitable city now.
Andrew Colvett
I mean, totally. Well, the reason they hate Stephen Miller is because he's actually over the target. He's getting at the core issues that have kept Democrats in power, namely immigration and a perverted justice system. He's going for both of them. Jason Whitlock joins us next.

When I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why Benghazi?
Charlie Kirk
The truth became a web of lies.
Leon Neyfak
It's almost a dirty word, one that connotes conspiracy theory.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Leon Neyfak
Bad face, political warfare and frankly, bullshit.
Charlie Kirk
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up. You put two and two together.
Leon Neyfak
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Jason Whitlock
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
Leon Neyfak
I'm Leon Neyfak from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries. This is Fiasco Benghazi.
Commercial Announcer
What difference at this point does it make?
Charlie Kirk
Yes, that's right. Lock her up.
Leon Neyfak
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Terrance Bates
Terrance Bates here with your real America's Voice. News break. Thanks so much for being here with us. President Trump is set to make his latest international trip tonight as he boards Air Force One headed for Malaysia. During his trip to Asia, the commander in Chief is set to visit Japan and South Korea as well. Trade, of course, will be one of the key issues he addresses along the way. However, the most watched part of the upcoming trip will likely happen next Thursday when the president is scheduled to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping. All of this comes amid the ongoing trade war between the United States and China.
Charlie Kirk
On November 1, the tariff on China goes to 157%, which is record setting territory and we don't want that because that's not sustainable for them. They can't sustain that. We don't want them to have to go through that. So I'm meeting with President Xi and I would say the first we have some big issues like with the farmers and various other things, but the first question I'm going to be asking them about is fentanyl. And if you think about it, they make $100 million. Think of this. They make $100 million selling fentanyl into our country, 100 million. They lose $100 billion with the 20% tariff. So it's not a good business proposition.
Terrance Bates
President Trump appears optimistic about reaching a trade agreement with China, saying earlier this week, quote, I think we're going to come out very well and everyone's going to be very happy. We shall see. And while POTUS is headed across the Pacific to try and wrap up one trade war, it appears the one that he's fighting to the north of us has now ended, albeit not quite in the way that anyone was expecting. On Thursday, President Trump announced that all trade talks with Canada are over taken to truth social. As you can see here, Mr. Trump writing in all caps, all trade negotiations with Canada are hereby terminated. The strong words coming after what he calls fraudulent advertisement featuring former President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs. U.S. and Canadian negotiators had been at the bargaining table for months over Trump imposed tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminum and cars. Even the Ronald Reagan Presidential foundation is out with a statement about the ad saying the government of Ontario, which released the video was, quote, using selective audio and video of the late president. That's a quick check of your headlines.
Charlie Kirk
The hardest working radio show in the business, the Charlie Kirk Show.
Andrew Colvett
All right, welcome back to the show. I want to tell you about Hillsdale College, the great people at Hillsdale College, just texting with them this morning, actually. History, economics, the great works of literature. Did you study these things in school? Probably not. But even if you did, it's probably time for a enjoyable refresher course. Hillsdale College is offering more than 40 free online courses, including their newest course on totalitarian novels. In this free eight lecture course, you'll learn from Hillsdale College President Larry Arn, the great Larry Arn. He's going to be in this city next week, by the way, so we're looking forward to seeing him as he goes in depth on four novels, 1984, Brave New World, Darkness at Noon and that Hideous Strength. So even though these novels were written in the 1930s and 1940s, they are still highly relevant today. So I encourage you to check out this amazing course and you can do that by going to CharlieForHillsdale.com CharlieForHillsdale.com that's C H A R L I E for Hillsdale.com and let the great folks at Hillsdale make the most out of those incredible novels. Really important stuff. All right, so we have the great Jason Whitlock from BlazeTV, host of Fearless, joining us now. Jason, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show. Good to see you, Andrew.
Jason Whitlock
Thank you for having me.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah, honored to have you. I know that your show, your own show, just wrapped and you guys kind of wrapped it quick to get over here, so I appreciate that as well. I would be remiss if I didn't give you the floor for a second just to reflect on the loss that we've all suffered. Charlie, this is the first time we've had you back on the show since it all happened. So I know you were friends and you both respected each other. So, please, the floor is yours.
Jason Whitlock
Well, obviously, Charlie's death, assassination moved me in a profound way. Charlie's influence on American culture, the celebration that you guys held is one of the greatest things I've ever. And again, I wasn't involved, but I feel like we were all involved just sitting on our couch watching it. It's. It's one of the greatest moments of my life. And so obviously, we're all saddened by Charlie's death, but sometimes martyrs and people like Charlie that make the ultimate sacrifice for all of us, you know, you just. It's a blessing, actually. And I, you know, it's. Obviously that's a complicated statement to say it's a blessing. I know, Jim, but it is because I think it's. He's inspired the way he lived his life. He made the ultimate sacrifice. I told people and I said this in real time, and I still mean it today. It's like, I hope that I have the courage that Charlie had to make the ultimate sacrifice for God and for American freedom. And I said this, and it just. It'll sound silly, but it's like I was halfway jealous of Charlie. Like, man, this guy actually did it. He followed Jesus model and made the ultimate sacrifice while improving and inspiring the world. And I hope that I can be the kind of man that Charlie was. And I know I'm 25, 26 years older than Charlie, but that is his legacy that he, to me, men should be all sitting there saying, how can I be like Charlie Kirk?
Andrew Colvett
I actually think that's beautiful, and I know what you're saying and the way it sounds, but you know, Charlie, I love the way you said it. You said he actually did it. He actually did it. And as somebody that. And I'm. By the way, you're also joined by Tyler Boyer, our COO of Turning Point Action, who's a Suns fan, but we can razz him for that in a little bit. But Tyler and I had this front row seat to watch this legend grow. I mean, when we first met him and to watch him grow into what he became. It's. It's genuinely one of the most humbling things, I think. It's. I can't imagine it'll be exceeded in any way, shape or form besides watching my beautiful kids grow up and. And being with my lovely wife. But it is the honor of a lifetime. I mean, I know Tyler, you agree, and it's. He actually did it. I love the way you said that because that really, really. It just like, hits something deep with me. He actually did it. Well done. Good.
Jason Whitlock
We all talk tough and pretend like we're willing to make the ultimate sacrifice. He did it. And, you know, I. I don't. I don't want to. I don't want it to happen to.
Andrew Colvett
Me, of course, But I hope that.
Jason Whitlock
I have the courage.
Andrew Colvett
We want you to live a long, healthy, beautiful life, Jason. And I want that for all of us. And we want safety and peace in our nation. But I have to bring you on for some of this. We titled the episode Lies, and I'm going to say it for the kids, Danged lies and Democrats, because they've just been lying about everything. And one of those lies I wanted to get to with you. So here we got the FBI that's exposing this vast gambling, illicit gambling network. There's 34 arrests, including Chauncey Billups from the Portland Trailblazers hall of Fame player. Now he's a coach, or is. I guess he still is. He's on leave or something. As this investigation unfolds and the trial unfolds, and you've got active players, past players, and you got the Mafia. So this is like a big. I was telling Jack Bosobic yesterday, I was like, it feels like a 1990s, you know, story. Somehow. It's like, oh, we're not talking about, you know, political assassination. We're just talking about gambling with the mob. This is great. Like, I'm in for it. This feels good. And then somehow Stephen A. Smith turned this into an anti Trump rant. Let's play 394 and I'll get your reaction on the other side. Jason, I'm watching a press conference with.
Charlie Kirk
The director of the FBI. Tell me when we've seen that. We've seen people, we've seen accusations before. We've seen athletes get in trouble with the law before. You don't see the director of the FBI having a press conference. It's not coincidental. It's not an accident. It's a statement. And it's a warning that more is coming. And that's what they're saying here. And everybody better get. I'm just telling you, it's, it's, it's, it's as serious as it gets. This ain't the platform for me to get into it the way I'm going to get into it. But I've been saying, he's coming, he's coming because in his eyes, folks tried to throw him in jail. In his eyes, he's innocent. They try to put me behind bars, I'm getting everybody. He's not playing.
Andrew Colvett
So, Jason, you are Stephen A. Smith's number one cheerleader on the Stephen A. Smith fan club. I know this about you, so I just couldn't resist. What on earth is this man talking about?
Jason Whitlock
Stephen A. Smith is out over his skis, as he tends to be whenever he discusses politics and whenever he discusses sports. But he's just got the exact wrong narrative. This is a positive, and he's describing it as a negative. Our sports world is corrupt. And I couldn't imagine a sports journalist, particularly someone who is the face of espn, which is supposed to be the face of sports journalism. And your reaction to seeing this level of corruption exposed be to, hey, let me demonize Donald Trump and the administration that is playing a role in exposing just how corrupt American sports have become. I just can't imagine that reaction, but that it speaks to how upside down journalism has, has come that, that we, we have no interest in cleaning up corruption. We have interest in benefiting from corruption. And so that's what you're hearing from Stephen A. Smith. I'm telling y', all, Donald Trump and Cash Patel, they're serious about cleaning up corruption. And that's gonna be bad for all of us who benefit from the gambling corruption and from the corruption of athletes. And, and from, and I'll go much bigger picture here than Stephen A. Smith that are benefiting from sport. The sports world having been snatched from Christians and, and that is what's happened. I, I've been explaining this, Andrew, on my show for months now. And it's like my passion, sports were a blessing from God to be used as a tool to disciple young men into a muscular form of Christianity. If you go Back to the 1800s, when the Young Men's Christian association, the YMCA, organized sports, it was, they organized it for the purpose of discipling young men into a muscular, robust form of Christianity, a fearless form of Christianity. And it has, it's been moved away and snatched away from all of that. It's controlled by feminism, it's controlled by Marxism. It's controlled. Sports are now controlled by forces antithetical to Jesus Christ. And so I see what Trump and Cash Patel doing, getting some of the corruption out, exposing the corruption of the sports world. It's just as important as when Trump jumped on the scene and started saying, fake news, fake news, fake news. And people finally got it and had their eyes open, like, hey man, this mainstream media, they're not our friends. And this sports world is corrupt in a way that is actually destroying and harming young people and imposing corruption, normalizing corruption throughout all of American culture. Because the NFL, the NBA, these are the forces that drive television ratings and Internet clicks and all this other stuff. It's a powerful tool that's been snatched from Christians and handed over to Marxists. And I see this as part of the process of cleaning this up and exposing to people just how off course the sports world has become.
Andrew Colvett
I think that's well said. And yeah, sports for me was, it was a time where I became tough. I had to grow out of, like, my baby fat phase and my, you know, the, the softness of childhood. And you get thrown into the arena and you, you gotta fight, you gotta fight. You gotta push harder. You gotta find something deeper in yourself. There is nothing soft about sports if done right. And this whole end racism in the end zone and this whole, like what Stephen A. Smith to me. And we've. We're running out of time in this segment, but we're gonna keep going in the breaks here with you, Jason. But what Stephen A. Smith to me is really saying is he's saying Trump is a racist. He's coming after the black league. That's about what I hear. Is there something to this story that I'm missing that is deeper than that, or is that basically how you see it as well? About 50 seconds.
Jason Whitlock
That is the story. You've 100% nailed it. And it's how black journalists and black athletes have been used by the left. They, they package their wickedness through the, through racism that if you speak against anything that they're doing, well, you're racist. And so you can't speak about this corruption because black athletes are involved and because if you do, you're racist. Yes, that is the shield that they've been using to impose degeneracy, immorality in all endeavors. Well, you're, you're homophobic if you speak against same sex Marriage. You're racist if you speak against the lawlessness that's going on in many black communities and. And the ushering in of corruption through the music that the NFL and NBA have embraced. And this is. You're racist if you speak against Bad Bunny.
Andrew Colvett
Are you getting. Are we going to Bad Bunny? We got. We got Bad Bunny clips. We could talk about Bad Bunny more with Jason Whitlock in the break. We're gonna just keep going because it's too much fun. Radio. We'll be back in a few minutes. Don't go anywhere. All right, we are back with Jason Whitlock from Fearless BlazeTV. Check it out. He just wrapped up a show and got over here in a jiffy, so we appreciate him for that. So, you know, you mentioned Bad Bunny, and I'm sure our team has got all the clips ready to go and the graphics, but we are, you know, at Turning Point usa. We're doing the halftime show. Tyler knows all about it. The all American halftime show. And now everybody's calling us racist because we don't like. Because we called it all American. And I was like, isn't Puerto Rico part of America? Like, that's. We're not saying you can't participate. We just said we would like it in English because, you know, that seems to be helpful for the vast majority of the population to understand. And now it's like all these libs on TikTok. They're not to be confused with libs of TikTok, but all these liberals that are posted out there. Oh, it's so racist. You're so mean to the Hispanics. I mean, this is the world we live in. Tyler has seen this up close and personal. Tyler. Tyler's one of the brain trusts behind this. This effort. He's got his. His ideas of who we need to book for talent, but we don't have to. We're not. If you have seen a talent roster, it's untrue, correct, Tyler?
Tyler Boyer
That's right.
Andrew Colvett
We have not made any. Yeah, we are in talks currently about the talent roster, but they're calling us racist. Do you like being called racist all the time?
Tyler Boyer
It's unbelievable that, you know how this is being turned around on. On everyone. But I think this comes from the commentary that the NFL commissioner said.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah. Oh, we have that clip, by the way, Jason, I'm going to get this for us really quick. He called. He called the halftime show. Let's see here. The Goodell clip. Give me the Goodell clip. Okay, so he calls it unifying. Jason play cut 324. Decision to choose bad Bunny as your super bowl halftime performer.
Jason Whitlock
He's one of the leading and most popular entertainers in the world.
Andrew Colvett
That's what we try to achieve.
Jason Whitlock
It's an important stage for us. It's an important element to the entertainment value. It's carefully thought through.
Charlie Kirk
I would say that I'm not sure.
Andrew Colvett
We'Ve ever selected an artist where we.
Jason Whitlock
Didn'T have some blowback or criticism.
Tyler Boyer
It's pretty hard to do it when.
Jason Whitlock
You have literally hundreds of millions of people that are watching. But I. We're confident it's going to be a great show and that he understands the platform that he's on.
Andrew Colvett
And I think it's going to be exciting and a united moment.
Jason Whitlock
Oh.
Andrew Colvett
So, Jason, do you think this is going to be a united moment?
Jason Whitlock
Yes, because you guys are throwing a counter event and we're going to unite around that. So. Yeah, I think it's great. I really mean that because we've. I've been fed up with the halftime shows for a long time. The rappers, they've been platforming that are profane and have no business being in front of hundreds of millions of kids. It's the biggest platform we've got. We don't need Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. We don't need the little dude, the little midget that performed. Kendrick Lamar that just performed and did some. The big song was him calling Drake gay or whatever. That's not what an NFL halftime should be about. And we need to unite around good music that promotes patriotism, that promotes some forms of Christian value. And. And I'm so glad we brought this up because, Andrew, I've, I. For a couple of weeks, I've been like, I need to DM Andrew. I need to DM Andrew. But now I really, really need to connect with you all. I've got a gift, a musical gift for you guys that's going to blow your minds. I. I have the next Richmond north of Richmond song. I've got the next Am I the Only One, and it references Charlie Kirk. When I get you guys this song, it's going to blow your mind. It's perfect for your event. It's perfect for anything. So I need you or Tyler. Yeah, I was gonna DM me over Twitter. Well, yeah, so we can connect off air.
Andrew Colvett
I'll have Jack connect us because Jack told me you were. You were texting with him. We're gonna welcome back national radio and we're not done yet with the great Jason Whitlock. Don't go any. So, Jason, this is my thing. So. So you've got Roger Goodell saying that it's going to be this united moment. And Tyler just started laughing as soon as he said united. Mo. Tyler, what's your take on Goodell? Should he keep talking?
Tyler Boyer
Yeah, I mean, I want to hear Jason's take. You know, Goodell's maybe the least popular guy amongst fans.
Andrew Colvett
The whole thing's laughable, right? You've got Stephen A defending illicit gambling rings. You got Roger Goodell defending Hispanic Puerto Rican rappers that refuse to speak English and hate ice and don't stand for our national anthem, calling it uniting.
Tyler Boyer
And the President.
Andrew Colvett
And hates the president.
Tyler Boyer
Three months ago, just speaking out so negatively about Trump.
Andrew Colvett
I mean, it's lies, Damned lies. And Democrats. That's how I feel about it. And I apologize to the families out there. It is a figure of speech. I don't mean to continually use the. I should have said darned lies just for the kids. I apologize. I'm gonna fix that. But that's the figure of speech. And it really does feel like that way where you're living in like a Looney Tunes world where they just get to say stuff. They just make things up and they just keep repeating it. And even when you call them on it, well, they were like, well, I'm just gonna keep saying it, Jason. This is an upside down world we're living in. And then. And when you call it out, it freaks them out because they're like they've been stewing and marinating in the lies for so long, they can't even see it anymore. And I think people just lose their sense of bearing and moral position in the world because they've just been stewing in lies for so long.
Jason Whitlock
Listen, I think you guys understand this. I'll be preaching to the choir, though.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah.
Jason Whitlock
What they intend, what Satan intends for bad, God will use for good. It's, it's. Look, Satan, in my view, played a role obviously in the death of Charlie Kirk. Look what God has done with that inspired. More people are going to church. More people are returning to Christianity. This halftime deal that they intend for bad to promote. Bad Bunny, who does his little drag queen routine, hates America, won't be singing a word in English. TP USA is going to turn for good. We're going to have a counter halftime event, and I'm telling you, it is going to be uniting. Those of us that serve Jesus Christ are going to love it. Those of us that love America are going to unite around Turning Point USA's event. I, I, I want Roger Goodell to keep talking. I want to make, I want, initially I was like, hey, I want to do everything in my power to stop Bad Bunny from performing. I want him to perform. The, the longer he stays on their lineup, the more people that are going to turn to Turning Point USA to hear this counter halftime event and we're going to unite around that. It's going to be a beautiful moment. If, if someone had told me, hey, Charlie Kerr's going to be assassinated and then we're going to have the greatest religious revival six hour, seven hour. Everybody love it on Jesus event. It's I, I, I think come Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest platform we have. I think we're going to have another one of those moments.
Andrew Colvett
Well, I appreciate it. It's encouraging to hear you say that. And here's what I will tell you. Tyler doesn't think small. So if you guys want to know about who was the original brainchild behind a lot of the big events and the conferences that we did and making them the way they were, this guy. You know, I know Charlie deserves a ton of credit and all that stuff, but actually Tyler played a huge role in formulating some of that creative. A lot of that creative. Well, that's nice.
Tyler Boyer
It's all like Charlie said, all glory to God, all the people that are around here. Nothing would happen without God and we know that first. But here's, here's what I, I just texted you. It would be awesome to have Jason involved, maybe co anchoring something lead into the halftime show with the show.
Andrew Colvett
Jason, do you hear that? I think, I think I second that. We got to have you.
Jason Whitlock
I would love it. Would love that.
Andrew Colvett
And we put you on a desk. I think there's some stuff.
Tyler Boyer
ESPN would love it.
Jason Whitlock
Yeah, yeah.
Tyler Boyer
The NFL would love it.
Jason Whitlock
I think we can get some NFL players.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah.
Jason Whitlock
To join us in a thousand percent halftime show.
Andrew Colvett
Yep.
Jason Whitlock
Or you know, I, I, there's a lot of NFL players, particularly former NFL players that would love and are, are upset by the direction the NFL has gone and I think some big names that would, well, you know, I've done shows previously from my studio here with Bret and but it would be pervasive. I think we think we can get some black NFL players involved. I know we can get some white NFL players involved and I think we could potentially get some current NFL players involved.
Andrew Colvett
I don't see why not.
Jason Whitlock
Anybody with a brain can see that this halftime that they're plotting is inappropriate on multiple levels. And I think you're going to see a lot of people draw a line in the sand and stand shoulder to shoulder that we're going to send out another powerful message.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah. Amen man. And I love the idea of having you involved and making a uniting event in a real true sense. And by the way, this is not, we're not anti anything. This is pro. This is like a bear hug of an event. This is all about glory to God and patriotism for our country. So, Jason Whitlock, thank you my friend. That was excellent.
Jason Whitlock
Thank you guys.
Andrew Colvett

Terrance Bates
Welcome back to this real America's Voice news break. I'm Terrence Bates. President Trump headed to Asia tonight on what could be described as a trade mission. He'll meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping during this trip, but it also comes as the commander in chief is cutting off trade negotiations with Canada. For more, let's bring in RAV's chief White House correspondent Brian Glenn in our Washington, D.C. studio. So, Brian, first of all, run us through what's on the agenda for the president as this is going to be a pretty long trip.
Charlie Kirk
It is, Terrence. The trip begins tonight from the White House. He departs here at 10:40 for Joint Base Andrews and he will jump on Air Force One and make that 20 plus hour flight. First stop on the list is Malaysia. Now, the details have been kind of slim from the White House as far as what is on the particular agenda for this Asia trip. And I'll go over a couple highlights here. On Monday, he will have a regional summit there. Obviously, trade is a big is a big item here in foreign investments as well. From there, he goes over to Japan, which, by the way, they have their first female prime minister of Japan. So he'll have an opportunity, opportunity to have a few minutes with her. There they will nail down some foreign investments. And if you remember, earlier in the year, he announced a $550 billion investment from Japan into American companies. So that's been one of the key components of all of this foreign investments. And then there it's off to South Korea. And that's where he's going to meet with Xi Jinping there to talk about trade. That is the biggest number topic on the table, trade between China and US and we've seen those tensions go back and forth. We've seen those two social posts throwing 150% trade tariff on China. President Trump even admitted yesterday, Terrence, that that is not workable. That's not doable for China. He knows that doesn't want to, you know, have that be the established tariff. But they will come up with some sort of agreement and that is the, the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation. That is where he will sit down with the president of China and hash it out.
Terrance Bates
Yeah, it's going to be interesting to watch and we, of course, will be tuned in. In the meantime, while the president is overseas, back home, the government still is going to be shut down, very likely. What are you hearing from your sources on Capitol Hill in terms of potential movement towards reopening the government?
Charlie Kirk
Yeah, sadly, today is a big day for many federal workers just not getting that paycheck for the first time. They might have gotten a partial paycheck last time. We're talking tsa, we're talking air traffic controllers. And then yesterday in the White House, President Trump announcing that he had a personal friend, a donor who announced that he would rip a check. And I believe he did. And they're going to use it, if they have to, for $130 million to pay some of the members in our military, somebody that's very passion about supporting the men and women who serve this military. And of course, they're trying to battle back and it's just all about health benefits for illegal aliens. And if you look at the clean CR that has been passed multiple times by both parties, this CR goes way back. This has Biden's signature and Chuck Schumer all over it. But apparently right now, the Democrats, the Hill that they are willing to die on as far as keeping this government closed to do with illegal immigrants receiving health benefits. And of course, Republicans standing strong, not allowing any movement on that. So the big question, Terrence, is how long will this go? Well, the standoff from what I've been told, could go up to the 21st. Now, if the government even opened up today, they'd have to have enough time in the 48 hour notice to get members back to D.C. they need to get these meetings, get these appropriations done, basically come up with another budget, another plan to perhaps extend that past November 21st. So we're burning calendar days here. So this may not be the first government shutdown that we have. If it does open up, we can't reach an agreement before the second deadline. You got that right. We can go into a second one, but let's just hopefully Democrats will come to their senses. Quit holding the American people hostage with this and let's get this government open and let's start solving the problems that we have in our nation.
Terrance Bates
Terrence Absolutely. Brian. This is a mess. As you and I have talked about time and time again. Shame on all of those involved. Get back to the bargaining table, reopen the government and let's fund the government. Brian Glenn reporting for us from our Washington D.C. studios. Always good to see you. Have a great weekend. Brian and that's going to do it for this this real America's Voice news break.

When I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten they called me a masochist rolled their eyes or just asked why Benghazi?
Charlie Kirk
The truth became a web of lies.
Leon Neyfak
It's almost a dirty word, one that connotes conspiracy theory.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Leon Neyfak
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
Charlie Kirk
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up. You put two and two together.
Leon Neyfak
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Jason Whitlock
Benghazi is a Rosetta stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
Leon Neyfak
I'm Leon Neyfak from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries. This is Fiasco Benghazi.

What difference at this point does it make?

Andrew Colvett
Foreign. Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. Hour two is upon us and it's Friday. So that means if you are a member@members.charlie Kirk.com, that's members.charlie Kirk.com. you can participate in this hour and ask us questions live on this show. You see it on the lower banner there? Members.charlie kirk.com and we've also got tons of emails, a ton of emails about halftime. Like, this is like the. The number one email topic that we get. It's like motorhead Patriot. Please check with Focus on the family and Dr. Dobson's family talk. They've had multiple Christian players that were brave enough to share their whole story with the. Confident. With the. With the audience. I'm confident they'd stand on at Super Bowl Sunday. This is a halftime show with the Turning Point team and Jason Whitlock. You guys could do your own full game coverage and halftime show without ever breaking by to the national networks. What do you think? That's great. That's from Josh. Maggie, I am definitely on board for Charlie's halftime show. I love that. Just call it Charlie's halftime show. In fact, I don't even want to watch the super bowl, which I've always enjoyed watching until the past few years when they made it political. Maybe you can do something before and after the halftime show as well. Just brainstorming, but I would rather watch a dog competition or maybe get together some of the top high school football players and they play again. Not bad. This one's from Janet. It says, as a former San Diego, longtime resident, devoted Christ follower, I vote for including Scott Turner in the show. I'm not familiar with Scott Turner. Do you know who that is? Scott Turner, San Diego. Oh, yeah.
Jason Whitlock
Yeah.
Andrew Colvett
Like big, famous. Yeah.
Tyler Boyer
Scott Turner is the hud. HUD secretary.
Andrew Colvett
Oh, is that. Oh, hud. I just took a picture with him. Yeah, he's incredible. Whoops. I didn't realize. Yeah, that makes sense. He's a former athlete. Scott would be great. Love Scott. And his whole team is really great too.
Tyler Boyer
Have him involved. We have Burgess Owens.
Andrew Colvett
Yep. What about Jordan Sparks and Gladys Knight or Sparks and Jennifer Hudson? This is from Sandro. Keep, Keep these suggestions coming. Keep these suggestions coming.
Tyler Boyer
I love that idea. Like renaming some of this with. And this is something to think about. We'll talk about this at the team. But you know like Dick Clark's New Year's.
Jason Whitlock
Oh yeah.
Tyler Boyer
Charlie Kirk Super Bowl Sunday or I guess halftime.
Andrew Colvett
No, but yeah, the, the halftime. Super. Charlie Kirk's halftime.
Tyler Boyer
Super halftime.
Andrew Colvett
All American.
Tyler Boyer
Super All American big sports.
Andrew Colvett
I love that. And Roger says there you go. Keep brainstorming those ideas. NFL players, maybe baseball, basketball and all sports event on the true good and strong and what real patriotism and masculinity looks like. Steve says everyone will be united in changing the flicking channel on butt Bunny. Okay. All right. Sorry Steve. You're, you're fights feisty here. And Paul says yes, yes, yes to Jason Whitlock being involved in the halftime show. Can't wait. And yes, Andrew, the excellence continues. Thank you all. I love it. Thank you guys.
Tyler Boyer
But we've got so many. We were just talking with Erica about AJ McCarron.
Andrew Colvett
Oh yeah, AJ McCarron has been inspired by Charlie Kirk to run for lieutenant governor of Alabama. Right.
Tyler Boyer
So you got AJ, you've got Harrison.
Andrew Colvett
Butkirk, you got Brett Favre. Brett Far and Charlie were close.
Tyler Boyer
Herschel Walker, who's now Ambassador Walker.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah, that's, that's a dude. There's a lot of sports guys, cuz you know what Jason was talking about is that sports bring out this muscular Christianity, this muscular faith. You don't have to be a perfect person or believe that. You, you don't even have to be like a Christian really. I, I mean we want you to come. There's going to be worship. We're definitely going to include worship. There's going to be rock music, country music. We're going to have a smattering of these genres. But you don't, you don't have to be, you know, clean as a driven. So we want all to come one and all and just celebrate the things that make this country great and strong. That's the whole point.
Tyler Boyer
And we would be, we would be remiss to not talk about Antonio Brown.
Andrew Colvett
Who Is Antonio Brown would come.
Jason Whitlock
AB.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah.
Tyler Boyer
Have AB and he. He brought out Le'Veon Bell, who was, like, out there with us registering voters.
Andrew Colvett
Like, we should do like, a whole, like, flag football game with all the. All the players. We could do. We could do the. The softball game. You know, like, it could be better than.
Tyler Boyer
We can't say the term that they use for the. The All Star Game that they use. Yeah, the super All Star Game. But we could do our own version.
Andrew Colvett
Super.
Tyler Boyer
No, because everybody hates that. That All Star Game that the NFL runs.
Andrew Colvett
The. Yeah, the. We can't.
Tyler Boyer
I don't even know how to use. I don't know if we're allowed to.
Andrew Colvett
Even talk about it. Held in Hawaii.
Tyler Boyer
Yeah, that's often. Everybody hates that. We could do our own version of that, too.
Andrew Colvett
Well, let's. Let's crawl before we walk. Maybe that's year two. We have Adrian. Adrian, you are calling into the Charlie Kirk show members.charlie kirk.com to join. So please, you guys, help us keep the lights on and help us secure our future. So please join members@charlie kirk.com. adrian, what is your question?
Commercial Announcer
Good morning, gentlemen.
Andrew Colvett
Good morning.
Commercial Announcer
Talk to me about this Kings rally.
Andrew Colvett
There's just a bunch of old people.
Commercial Announcer
And I say that loosely because I'm on that side of it.
Caller or Guest
But why are they so unhappy?
Commercial Announcer
They just got a cola adjustment for their Social Security. The stock market's been great for their whole life. Basically, they own their own homes. I just don't know what they're so unhappy about.
Andrew Colvett
I mean, listen, are you trying to get me in trouble again with some of our audience members? I will tell you so. So I just have to take a step back because Charlie used to get infuriated about this. If he ever said anything about the over 65 crowd, he. He would just get blown up in the emails. And it's crazy, because the people that watch this show and listen on to this show on radio and podcasting, they're the good guys. They're the ones that get it, that we love you. Obviously. We love all of you. And so. But there is a thing of certain older generations where they feel sort of like I'm not being respectful to my elders or that Charlie wasn't being respectful to the other, to his elders. I don't know what it is because, you know, I'm a millennial. Charlie was a millennial. And, you know, we have Gen Z all out in the bullpen out here, and we're used to saying, you know, good and bad things about our Generations. Because all generations are a mix, right? They have different tendencies, maybe different characteristics, generation by generation. But there is a tendency to want to defend an entire generation when you get above a certain age threshold, let's just say. And I don't understand that, because I have been called all kinds of nasty names my whole life for being a millennial. And Tyler, you're a millennial, as well. So we both get it. And by the way, we share those critiques, but that doesn't mean that we share those values. We're conservatives. We, you know, we hope more of our millennial brethren and sisters will become conservatives.
Tyler Boyer
Well, what's really weird is that what we've seen is that millennials when we were younger acted like what boomers are acting like now.
Andrew Colvett
You said the word when they're.
Tyler Boyer
When they're older.
Andrew Colvett
I know, but I love boomers. But I love boomers.
Tyler Boyer
No, but this is. Boomers need to embrace this and fix it.
Andrew Colvett
Right?
Tyler Boyer
Which is that millennials are fixing the problems that we had started.
Andrew Colvett
We had this Gen Z is.
Tyler Boyer
We had these highly environmentalist millennials. We had all of these protest millennials. Now we're seeing protest boomers. And that's. It's a very weird thing, because you're exactly right, is that everyone that you see that's out at these rallies is like, usually an old lady.
Andrew Colvett
I think what it is, for the most part, yeah, you get, and you get this, even on the gop, where you're asking for volunteers. This is what makes Turning Point, Turning Point action. So exceptional is because we'll do these volunteer drives for ballot chasing and things like that, and we'll get a lot of young people. So it's visually just a lot of the reporters, like, wow, this is a bunch of young people. But traditionally, you get a lot of older people because they're retired, they have time on their hands, they understand life in a bigger way, and they understand the stakes that are at play. But also, you know, I think there is a thing. And you mentioned they've got the cost of living, the stock adjustment on their Social Security, the stock market is up. Like, I think the s and P500 is up 36% since the tariff apocalypse, Adrian. And so, yeah, their 401ks are looking good, their retirements are looking good, they've got their homes probably all paid off, and they got time on their hands. They're retired. And here's the other thing. I think that boomers, left wing hippie boomers, not the ones in this audience. We love you guys. But the hippie boomers, they want to relive the glory days of the 1960s in the Civil rights era and the protesting, the marching the streets and the burning the bras and the, you know, all the things. And they believe that, that the younger generation has lacked that sort of gumption, that inspiration. And they're just excited to get back out there and march against somebody they've been told is evil. Namely, that's Donald Trump. He's been called Hitler, a fascist, an authoritarian, a dictator, a racist, all the things. And they go on Facebook and all their friends reinforce those lies. And so they think that they have this righteous cause. And frankly, they're the ones that have all the time. Meanwhile, the young people can't afford rent, they can't afford their food, they're depressed, they're riddled with anxiety medication and they just can't get off the couch because what does it all mean? The nihilism has set in. We're gonna keep going in the break because this is fun with Adrian. We'll be right back.

Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. This is Andrew Colvett, executive producer of this fine show with Tyler Bowyer. Tyler, you have any other thoughts on that? Really quick. Just be careful. Don't poke the bear.
Charlie Kirk
We love.
Tyler Boyer
I think you hit it right, which is just like we've seen this, you know, this revival of 60s style baby boomers who are now bored and agitated. The left wing and the right wing baby boomers. Now, this is their chance to step up and counter that.
Andrew Colvett
That's a great note. If you're a right wing baby boomer, which we have some of those in our audience, please don't send me nasty grams on email. I love you. We love you guys. We need you guys to step forward. We need you guys to get into the bridge.
Tyler Boyer
There's a way to explain this. And it's not just baby boomers. It's Gen X. It's my parents. My parents are Gen X. Yeah, they're older Gen X. And so they had a lifestyle. I mean, they came up through the dot com boom and they made all their money doing that and all of that. And they're basically becoming Retirees. And they've never had to do any political activism before. And I know this because, again, my parents were some of these people. They did their whole lives. They never were actively politically and active politically. And now they're learning that for the first time. And so this is the opportunity for those Gen Xers to combat and learn in addition to the baby boomers who are now retired. If you've never done any political activism, you can learn that here with us at Turning Point Action. At Turning Point, you can follow the lead. You can work with our young people who are doing a really good job at it. And we're happy to work all together to basically combat all the craziness that we're seeing out of the no King Jellies.
Andrew Colvett
I totally agree. And we get a lot of these emails, like, especially in the wake of Charlie's assassination, like, we want to start chapters of Turning Point where we're not students, we're parents, we're grandparents. How do you do that? We already have them. It's called Coalitions at Turning Point Action. So if you are not a student, the mission is get involved politically, download the app and start making calls and sending texts. We're going to welcome back national radio. We're going to keep going with Brianna after the break. All right, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. I'm Andrew Colvitt, joined by Tyler Boyer, COO of Turning Point Action, the preeminent grassroots activism organization in the country. We're getting people elected, we're knocking on doors, we're making phone calls and sending texts. At Turning Point Action, download the app today because that's how you get involved. Brianna, we have. Brianna, please unmute yourself. You are now part of the Charlie Kirk Show.
Caller or Guest
Hey.
Andrew Colvett
So I go to a Christian law school. I'm in a lot of Christian circles.
iHeart Radio Announcer
And one of the most common things.
Caller or Guest
I find in these circles is the idea of Third Wayism.
iHeart Radio Announcer
And I'm just curious, what is the.
Caller or Guest
Best response to that?
Andrew Colvett
Yeah, no, I, I, we talked about that with Megan Basham yesterday, actually, just about how pervasive Third Way ism is. And it's basically for those in the audience that need a little brush up on it. It's saying we don't want, we're Christians, we don't want to be left, we don't want to be right, we don't want to be divisive. We're going to go, we're going to, we're going to just preach the gospel and it's, it's a new way of Saying an old thing, right? Because we saw that that was essentially what turning point or Tposa faith was launched to combat. Right? Because when we saw this in Covid, there was no third way in Covid. So this is what happens when tyrannical governments get their way and they say you're not allowed to meet anymore because we have a pandemic. And you're going to spread the pandemic in your church gatherings. If you do not become political in your theology, politics will become theological. It will invade your religious space.
Tyler Boyer
I want to use the Barry Goldwater quotes. This is the perfect opportunity to use the Barry Goldwater quote for this. Extremism and defense of liberty is no vice.
Andrew Colvett
Say it again slow.
Tyler Boyer
Extremism and defense of liberty is no vice. So Barry Goldwater was famous for saying this and what the the background meaning of this And I'll change in defense of liberty, but let's change it to in the defense of moral liberty, in defense of God and righteousness. Extremism is the villainization of the defense of all that is good by the left. So this happens quite frequently in society where they will actually villainize all Christians, right? We, we hear this term Christian nationalism. Now, they, they will almost always call you an extremist anytime that you stand up for God, anytime that you stand up for Jesus, anytime that you vocalize your, your religious beliefs. That's why we always talk about politics being downstream from culture. And your culture is your religious beliefs. You cannot live in a society where you say, I'm not going to be left or right. I'm going to just be focused on my faith. Because again, your politics come from whatever your faith is. And your defense of those beliefs is going to always be called extremism. That's why the embracing again, this Barry Goldwater quote, extreme extremism in defense of liberty is no vice, is that we have to stand for what's right no matter what. There is no fence sitting. And you're always going to be called.
Charlie Kirk
Left.
Tyler Boyer
You're always going to be called left or right by the opposition, depending upon where you're. And for us, we're always going to be called super right wing, super extremist for holding those very basic biblical beliefs well.
Andrew Colvett
And that's what I would say as well, is that you have to pick a side. And I in I'm telling you, the politics will become theological. Would you have even imagined a few years ago that we would be calling boys girls and girls boys? Well, this is a real thing. That is a theological argument because The Bible tells us that he made them male and female and that's very binary. And then all of a sudden the academy comes in and says, well, no, we've defined a few other categories of people. And by the way, you don't get to choose anymore. We're gonna force this and coerce this upon you and your kids. And you don't even just have to accept it as a subcategory. We're gonna force your participation in it because we're gonna send, we're gonna send boys into the girls locker room and we're gonna send boys onto the sports field. That is a theological argument they are making from a secular position that is invading a, a moral position and it's invading our politics. So you may not want to be political, you may not want to pick a side, you may not want to be divisive, but I would challenge those people that are like that. Do you fear God or do you fear man?
Tyler Boyer
And you're in. Your point, Andrew, is really good, which is that social justice is at the epicenter of Third Wayism. And what, what is, what is by. By your fruits you shall know them. What has been the outcome of social justice mentality? And it's exactly what you just said, which is the end result of this, has been putting men in girls bathrooms.
Andrew Colvett
And it's justifying abortions, it's justifying divorce, it's justifying all kinds of societal ills that ultimately peel apart the foundations of our culture and the goodness and the truth and the beauty of our culture one by one by one. And so if you're not going to pick a side on that, I would just challenge you and say, look at the life that Charlie Kirk lived. He lived boldly. He confronted evil and he proclaimed the truth and he was killed for it. And he sparked a revival because he lived fearlessly and boldly. That's the model.

Terrance Bates here with your Real America's Voice news break. Thanks so much for being here with us. The government shutdown continues, meaning today is the first day many federal workers won't be getting a paycheck at all. We're talking about zilch, nothing. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. Putting that fact into perspective and the impact it's having at airports across the.
Charlie Kirk
Country, I've asked our controllers, please show up for work. And those who do show up for work, I thank them. They are great. American patriots who come to work every single day knowing that they don't have a paycheck going into their bank account.
Andrew Colvett
Even though they're providing critical services to the American economy.
Terrance Bates
Secretary Duffy says it's safe to fly, but he warns the government shutdown could cause significant flight delays as it drags on. New York Attorney General Letitia James pleads not guilty to two felony charges of bank fraud and making false statements to a financial institution. She was arraigned in a Norfolk, Virginia courtroom this morning. The charges stemmed from her 2020 purchase of a home there in Norfolk, Virginia. Prosecutors say she misled a bank about the nature of the home in order to obtain more favorable loan conditions. She argues she is the victim of political prosecution.

James is facing charges similar to the one she brought against President Trump in a New York civil case. The case against her, however, is a criminal case. By the way, she did win more than $350 million in an award in her case against President Trump. While we've been talking about it all day, the FBI has busted a major gambling ring, leading to the arrest of high profile profile NBA coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat player Terry Rozier. Both men were arrested and are now facing their trials. That's a quick check in your forecast. Oh, that's a quick check.

Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. Andrew Colvett with Tyler Boyer here. I'm gonna read some of your emails. Then we're gonna get to our next person, which is gonna be Elizabeth. So if you're Elizabeth, get ready to go. But I'm gonna read some of your emails. I've got. We're getting flooded. Flooded by emails about halftime show and boomers. Those seem to be the two themes right now. Cinda says Harrison Butker will not be available for the super bowl halftime show. That is very wishful thinking, but I appreciate that as he will be playing. But how about miking him up? Interesting idea. Creed from Tani. Even if you need to hire artists that cover Creed songs, this needs to happen. Whole Creed Thanksgiving set recreated. Flying in the air and all. Big, big, big. Thank you, Tani. We are in touch With Scott from Creed. I will say that much. April says I have a suggestion for Charlie's halftime show. Striper. I'm sure Michael Sweet would love to be a part of this. Love you, Miss. Miss, Miss Charlie. But you guys are doing such a great job. I would love to hear a little bit about how you all met Charlie. Oh, man, that's. I mean, real quick, you want to give yours.
Tyler Boyer
I've been through it a bunch of times, so people can. I'll give you the. Yeah, I'll give you the opportunity. Because I don't think people have really heard your story.
Andrew Colvett
Well, you know, we were talking about. I. I'm really sad about this. I can't. It's like, I place that. So many Charlie memories. I can't fully place the first one. I remember the first phone call, and I think the first time I met Charlie was when he traveled through Los Angeles, because I was actually working in LA at the time, and I think we met at this hotel, like, at a restaurant, I think. But anyways, one of the guys I was working with met him in. At an event in Florida. And I was working at an agency, a communication shop, and I ended up. I don't know what it was. Actually, it does stand out for this reason, because the guy I was working with said, hey, you should pursue him to become, you know, to make Turning Point a client, because I was part of an agency at the time, and I. I just kind of doggedly kept emailing, being like, hey, hey. And he's like, no, not yet. We don't need this yet. We don't need this yet. And then eventually he's like, hey, I'm gonna be in la. I think is what I thought about this, because Tyler and I actually talked about this last night. And I don't know, I never did that with anybody. And you gotta remember, Charlie was, like, way smaller than he became. I think he had, like, a couple hundred thousand followers on Twitter.
Jason Whitlock
We had.
Tyler Boyer
I mean, it was still super, very, very early.
Andrew Colvett
I just got really dogged about pursuing Charlie, and I just kept emailing him. He's like, okay. And he called me, and then he's like, let's meet in la. I'm gonna be there, like, next week. I think that's how it happened. And then the rest is history. And we just kept. We just kept it going, kept building. Janet says no whining and complaining. This boomer loves you. I am super thankful for Charlie and the whole TPUSA team. You rock Boomers at no Kings is from Alexander Some of these boomers attending the rallies are probably retired and doing this for extra income. That's a good point. That's a really good point. Oh, my gosh. There's so many. Good, good one. This is. Jenny says a true Christian must take a biblical stand for truth and morals. Too many people don't understand the importance of speaking up. You cannot be lukewarm and be a follower of Christ. I totally, totally agree. So let's get to Elizabeth here. Elizabeth, please unmute yourself. Welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
Caller or Guest
Hi, guys. Thank you so much for taking my call.
Andrew Colvett
Of course.
Caller or Guest
Also, one more thing before I begin the shame segment. You need to make that weekly. It's the best thing ever.
Andrew Colvett
We will.
Leon Neyfak
Don't worry.
Andrew Colvett
But I like when Mikey's here. Did we just do it? Did you just do it? Did I miss it? Oh, okay. Mikey. It was Mikey's idea, I think, and Danny's and maybe Daisy had something to do with it too. But I love it. And so Mikey is traveling this week, but we will be doing that often. So thank you.
Caller or Guest
Awesome. So my question, or maybe more of a comment, is this New York City mayorial race. They had a primary. Cuomo lost in the primary. Cuomo has no business being in there. He murdered 15,000 senior citizens in the nursing homes. He should be in prison for mass murder along with a few other governors in the blue states. But I can defend Sliwa. Everybody was pretending to work at McDonald's. Donald Trump went to work at a McDonald's on his campaign. And Curtis Leawa is actually a McDonald's manager in 1979. And the reason he started Guardians Angels was because the city was a complete crime ridden disaster. He organized groups of people to monitor the subways in groups of eight. He actually became an international organization. Mario Cuomo actually endorsed his work back in the late 80s when it was still under Dinkins. So he has been able to build coalitions. He has been able to build his organization into something international. He hasn't murdered 15,000 people. He's not a communist. And the biggest lesson we can learn here is voting blue, no matter who got you? The Democratic Socialist Party, who are communists. So if they want to save the city, you need to vote Republican.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah, I mean, I don't disagree with your critiques of Andrew Cuomo at all. I think he's done a terrible job trying to convince Republicans why they should even consider voting for him. And I mean, that is. That is the trick. Right? And so you've got three players here. Mamdani is Winning with immigrants. He is at 46% ish, maybe even higher. He is a slick talker. And people are just trying to figure out, how are you gonna keep this communist from becoming the mayor of one of the most important cities in the world and the financial capital of the West. Really? That along with London. And so I get why people are confused on this, because they look at Sliwa, he's got 15%. Cuomo's got 33%. So they're just kind of like, hey, who can win? Can anybody win? And the fact that Cuomo is not gonna completely destroy the financial system, he's not good. I don't agree with him. And you're totally right. He handled Covid terribly, and a lot of elderly people died as a result of that. Would it classify as murder? I have to look into the details there. I'm a little foggy on remembering, but, yeah, a lot of people believe that.
Caller or Guest
He was told, don't do it, and he did. Thousands of people will die. He wrote a bill that you can't sue the nursing homes.
Andrew Colvett
And then I do remember that, yes.
Caller or Guest
Patients into the nursing homes, Then they lied about the numbers, and they didn't admit to what they did until about June. And don't forget, he was writing a book for $5 million while he was doing all this.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah, no, I totally agree. I totally agree. Cuomo also has a big rap sheet when it comes to sexual assault, and Sliwa keeps. I mean, in the first debate, at least, Sliwa spent most of his time attacking Andrew Cuomo. And, you know, I kind of kept going like, well, you guys both need to take Mamdani down if you're gonna get any progress here. But I totally agree. Cuomo has not given enough of a sales pitch to conservatives. He's given them nothing. I sort of understand the conundrum. There's folks online like Mike Cernovich who completely agree with you and are basically saying, I'm never voting for that Democrat. He's never done anything for me. He's never done anything for conservatives. I think the best argument for Cuomo's position is that he's not Mamdani. That is literally the best sales point. And Mamdani is going to be. I mean, he's going to destroy that. That city in many ways. And the question is then going to become, can the city ever recover?
Caller or Guest
And, yes, it can, and I'll tell you how, okay? If we somehow manage to pull a city rallywood in New Jersey, hopefully that momentum can go into next year. And we can get a Republican governor. A Republican governor can remove the New York City mayor. It takes some wiggle waggling and some legal, but it could be done.
Andrew Colvett
I mean, good luck in a state that's controlled. I mean, yeah, you might have the governor's mansion, but you're not necessarily gonna have anything else besides that. And so it's always gonna be tricky. I mean, if you don't have the legislature and you don't have the judges and, I mean, you don't have the.
Caller or Guest
City council, they don't need the legislature. They can do it themselves. They just need to go through a legal process.
Andrew Colvett
All right, well, I mean, that's interesting. You know more about that than I do. It sounds like you're a proud New Yorker. You are. You, maybe you're in Jersey. I don't know where you, where are you based, Adam?
Caller or Guest
I would say I'm a New Yorker, but not proud. And I would also. He murdered my dad in his nursing home. We were denied funerals. You were denied goodbyes, I can tell you. Thank you. They did the same exact thing in Pennsylvania. Remember that? Rachel Levine, admiral, health official in the federal. The transvestite.
Andrew Colvett
Yeah.
Caller or Guest
Dick, you know, they did the same thing in Pennsylvania. Yeah. Take Levine took his mother out of the nursing home and put her in a hotel the day before. They put positive COVID positive patients in nursing homes there. And their death toll was something like 9,000. This went across four states of mass murder. The DOJ really needs to do something about this.
Andrew Colvett
I love that you're getting into this and you're reminding us of it, Elizabeth. Because there are so many things that happened during COVID that are wrong morally on so many levels, and they probably are wrong legally. And so, listen, I would love for Sliwa to win. I don't think he's necessarily a very compelling candidate when it comes to speaking and just galvanizing people. He's polling really low. I wish Donald Trump can send Andrew.
Caller or Guest
Giuliani there to help him.
Andrew Colvett
Well, good. No, and I wish for the best for Sliwa. He's certainly the best choice of the three. Godspeed to our friends in New York. But something's got to give or you got Mom. Donnie, that's. That's. That's the choice. That's the. That's the truth. Thank you so much. We've got to go to David. David next. David, are you there? There you are. Yes, I am here.
Jason Whitlock
Thank you very much for doing what you're doing.
Andrew Colvett
I'm sorry you're Sorry for your loss. Thank you.
Jason Whitlock
We're in, we're in, we're in Southern.
Andrew Colvett
California and we, you know, piggybacking off.
Charlie Kirk
What the other lady was saying.
Andrew Colvett
Our legislature does not listen to the.
Terrance Bates
People and we're trying to figure out.
Andrew Colvett
How to remove our legislature and educate.
Charlie Kirk
The, our masses in California.
Andrew Colvett
Well, you got that Prop 50 going on in California, too. Yes. Which, you know, they're trying to redraw the lines to basically fight Texas and maybe Indiana, although Indiana is, is a whole other story and nothing to do with Texas. We have nothing to do with Texas, of course. But yeah, that's their justification that they're doing it because, you know, we're, we're tyrants and we're, we're trying to redistrict midstream in between census. But by the way, the census was completely botched, which is a, it was a whole other, I mean, it's a completely rigged census during COVID It is, it is illegitimate and should be redrawn. And we would get like 10 to 12, maybe even more congressional seats.
Tyler Boyer
I was just reviewing the numbers. I want to make this super, super clear for everyone. I was just reviewing the numbers this morning. The latest projections are that the Democrats are going to probably lose upwards of 15, 16 seats in Congress if we redid the census in the next census. So redoing the census earlier means that they're going to lose at least almost a majority of those. So. Because what Andrew just said is exactly right. The census in 2020 was so manipulated, so botched, so intentionally drug. Nobody was paying attention. Everyone was running around like chickens with their heads cut off because of COVID worried about their family. Like this poor lady that just got off the phone with us that she was losing her family members that they couldn't even let her see.
Andrew Colvett
She couldn't say goodbye.
Tyler Boyer
Nobody was paying attention to, you know, these leftist operators who were trying to manipulate the, the congressional apportionment. This is really bad for Democrats. And so they, they have to almost do this right now in California to try to get ahead of how bad it's going to be ahead of 2030.
Andrew Colvett
We're, we're going to keep my question break really quick here. I'm sorry, David. We'll keep going with you in the break. Just hang tight.

When I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why Benghazi?
Charlie Kirk
The truth became a web of lies.
Leon Neyfak
It's almost a dirty word, one that connotes conspiracy theory.
iHeart Radio Announcer
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Leon Neyfak
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
Charlie Kirk
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up. You put two and two together.
Leon Neyfak
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Jason Whitlock
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
Leon Neyfak
I'm Leon Neyfak from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries. This is Fiasco Benghazi.
Commercial Announcer
What difference at this point does it make?
Charlie Kirk
Yes, that's right. Lock her up.
Leon Neyfak
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Andrew Colvett
What happens is, and you see this in different professions, like teaching, you see it in journalism, you see it in politics, especially left wing, far left radical politics, where they self select themselves into these activist professions. Whereas conservatives tend to build their business, build their family, build their church, build their community. Radical leftists like to get into the teaching profession, they like to get into the journalist profession, they like to get into the political profession because that is their God, that is their church, that is their reason for being. And so you have, especially in places like the Bay Area, these are radical, radical activists that get into politics by getting in at the lowest levels. They rise to the ranks and the most radical ones win. And then they put a sheen of legitimacy on them and moderation before they announce. They scrub their socials and then they come out and you're like, oh, this person is really buttoned up and it's good. They do not care what a conservative in Southern California thinks about them. If they are a radical leftist from the Bay Area, they just simply don't. And so it's just getting more and more and more radical in places like California. But the grassroots is rising up. There is hope. We're gonna have Steve Hilton on soon and we're gonna talk about that Prop 50 or whatever. All right, we're gonna welcome back national radio. We're gonna keep going with AMA on Friday. Don't go.
Leon Neyfak
All right.
Andrew Colvett
Welcome back to Charlie Kirk Show. We've got Bob. Remember, if you want to be a part of these, go to members. Charlie Kirk dot com. You guys mean the world to us. You help keep the lights on, help us keep our staff employed and all those good things. Members.charlie kirk.com Bob, what's your question?
Charlie Kirk
Hey, guys, thanks for all your work. Thank you. The U.S. naturalization Oath, which prospective citizens are legally required to swear by, also requires an applicant, among other points, to agree. I hereby declare an oath that I absolutely, entirely renounce all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, all of which have heretofore been subject to. So my I have two questions here, if you could related to this, guys, could you comment on these? Number one, is it accurate to say that an honest Muslim applicant could not take this oath and therefore could not become a citizen? That's my first question. And the follow up, does this renunciation of fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty apply to Catholic allegiance to the Pope or the Catholic Church?
Andrew Colvett
No, I would say. Let me answer your second one first. So the Bible is very clear. It says, render unto Caesar what is Caesar's. And so baked into the Catholic faith is an understanding that we have earthly powers and principalities. Earthly powers, let's not get into principalities. So we have earthly powers that are set up that God has established the rulers of this world. And so there is not a moral issue or a conflict with honoring your national sovereign as well as your, your heavenly sovereign, which is Jesus and God the Father. That being said, we have examples in the New Testament, especially the Book of Acts, where they are the the apostles are asked to do things that are contrary to their faith and those can cause conflicts. That's why it's important for Christians to be involved in the public spaces and in your government, your local school boards, all those things. Because if good godly men and women are leading your culture and your society and your government, then you are going to avoid those conflicts. You're going to avoid issues like religious freedom, conflicts that come up and that end up getting litigated in the courts when bad decisions are made by bad leaders. And so no, you, you, if Christians, we should flood the public square. We should get in positions of power and influence so that those conflicts do not arise. And there are instances in the New Testament, like I said in the Book of Acts, that that mean we have to then Defy the authorities and sometimes you will be thrown in prison. This is why the scripture said, visit your brothers who are in prison. Right? So, yeah, there is no issue on number two. Now, if you're asking about an honest Muslim, I would say, yeah, guess what? You know, it's an interesting thing is the Muslims have to pray five times a day to the east, to Mecca. And they're. They are. They are basically saying that they are. Their allegiance is to Mecca and they are a conquering force. That is a conquering religion. It is a political religion. And so I would say an honest Muslim is going to have a very difficult time claiming allegiance to a country that is not predominantly Muslim. Which is why I always say there are 50 Muslim majority. Plus there's more than 50 Muslim majority countries in the world. If you want to move and you're a Muslim, you want to immigrate somewhere, don't do it to the west because you are basically picking a fight with the west every time you do that. Now, I can understand if there's a small minority that are doing it for some sort of job or whatever, but this mass invasion into the west, you get this Dearborns, these epic cities. You can see London. I believe that you cannot do both. I'm gonna get to one more question here. Thank you so much, Bob.
Jason Whitlock
Can it be codified?
Andrew Colvett
Can it be codified? Well, that's gonna take a lot more political courage than we currently have, Bob. But at the state level, they're getting rid of the, you know, Tuberville's got this anti Sharia law bill and many, many other things. So, yeah, it's going to be tough, Bob. I'm not going to lie. It takes too much political courage. We don't have it right now, but I'm with you 1000%. I think we can deal with the immigration part of it before we can deal with the codification of a naturalization situation.
Charlie Kirk
I agree with you. What you're saying about Christians being involved. Is there a difference there with Catholics and the Pope?
Andrew Colvett
Yes, there is. Yes. Yes, there is. I tried to explain that. I hope. I want to get to Natalie. Bob, I'm so sorry, but you go ahead. Yeah. Natalie, what's your question? Thank you, Bob. Natalie, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
iHeart Radio Announcer

This is an iHeart podcast.
This episode, hosted by Andrew Colvett (executive producer, sitting in for Charlie Kirk) with regular guests Tyler Boyer (COO of Turning Point Action) and BlazeTV’s Jason Whitlock, focuses on "Lies, Damned Lies, and Democrats": a critical examination of current political misinformation, media narratives, issues of political activism, and ongoing culture war battles. The show also addresses news of the day, discussions about a proposed "All-American Halftime Show" counter-programming the Super Bowl, the legacy and martyrdom of Charlie Kirk following his assassination, and a robust listener Q&A in the second hour.

[28:43]–[30:01]
[41:44]–[48:32] – Jason Whitlock Interview
[37:19]–[40:47]
[70:23]–[120:48]
On Media Manipulation:
On Letitia James:
On Stephen Miller:
On Corruption in Sports:
On the Culture War and the Super Bowl:
On the Legacy of Charlie Kirk:
On Generational Political Activism:
On 'Third Wayism' (Christian centrism/inaction):
On Christianity and Citizenship:
The tone is combative, populist, and unapologetically culture-war focused. The show presents itself as the inheritor of Charlie Kirk’s bold, religiously infused conservatism, emphasizing activism (not “centrism”), the necessity of truth-telling against the mainstream narrative, and a strong connection to both religious and patriotic values.
Listener interaction is robust, with extensive Q&A exploring issues of faith, culture, politics, and real-world activism—serving as a rally for the Real America's Voice and TPUSA grassroot conservative base.
This episode is a wide-ranging discussion and call to action for conservatives committed to opposing what the hosts see as rampant dishonesty and moral decline in American politics, media, and culture. It leverages current controversies—including the White House ballroom, Letitia James' legal trouble, Stephen Miller media attacks, corrupt sports/gambling culture, and the divisive Super Bowl lineup—as touchpoints for a broader call to revive traditional, faith-driven, patriotic activism. Special guest Jason Whitlock invokes both the legacy of Charlie Kirk and the potential for a cultural (and Christian) revival across the country.
