Hey, everybody. What happens when institutions we trust start to crumble? Well, the current credentialocracy is running America into the ground. What is that? Where did it come from? Well, we dive into that and we talk about a private school in Phoenix that has totally lost its way, that are literally calling up Hispanic families, threatening them. If they don't get the vaccine, their children might not be able to go to school. How did we get here? We also talk about the leaked phone call from Joe Biden from the national security apparatus where he knew Kabul was going to fall. He gave the weapons to the opposition. Is he gonna be held accountable for that? That and so much more here on the Charlie Kirk Show. If you wanna support our program, you could do so@charliekirk.com support.

We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives. And we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Hey, everybody. This episode is brought to you by my friends at ExpressVPN. ExpressVPN.com Charlie Secure your device. Anonymize your online activity. Protect your action online. Expressvpn.com Charlie help our show out, but by also helping yourself. Protect yourself. Expressvpn.com Charlie what is an institution? What is an institution? The first time the word institution in the English language surfaced was around 1400. It came from a Latin term, instituteium, or a disposition or arrangement. Instruction or education, then blended with an old French word which meant foundation or thing established, something that is meant to last. From the 1550s it meant established law or practice. And eventually it colloquially got known to be known as anything that has been around for a long time, an institution that which is meant to stay. And one of the reasons why we are in such chaotic times is because the institutions that we used to trust to say no to the activists and be a bulwark against the radicals have done the exact opposite. You see, we need institutions as backstops and constants in times of chaos and disorder. In fact, chaos and rebellion is the human norm. Having something that is permanent, something that is around the idea of a transcendent order is very rare. So 1980s Republicanism focused heavily on building up the United States military, an institution on building up private schools, and an institution building up corporations, an institution. Yet as you look at the landscape in America, do you actually trust those institutions? Are they communicators and are they stalwarts for defending natural rights, children and passing down values from one generation to the other? One example of this is what has happened in private schools across the country. Private schools have always been a place where the ruling class gets to carve out an above average, in fact, sometimes exceptional education for their children. Private schools, in particular private high schools and grade schools are feeder schools for eventually going to Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Yale. The people that run the FBI, the people that run the CIA, the people that run your top intelligence services, the people that run Goldman Sachs. Private schools were mostly immune to a lot of the social revolutionary impulses of the early 2000s. And one example in particular of a school that is known as basically the top tier school, or at least it used to be, in a state that a lot of you are focused on is Brophy, Brophy College Preparatory School in Arizona. Now, Brophy's an all boys school. It is a Jesuit school. It is run by your typical kind of Jesuit education class. I'm not going to get into the fact that they have Black Lives Matter posters in classrooms at Brophy. I'm not going to get into the fact that the head of Brophy told all the white men at school to check their white proof privilege at the door. I'm not going to get into any of that. Instead, I'm going to get into a recent policy that they put forward that is a microcosm of what has happened to our once great institutions. And I want to be very clear. We need institutions just because we rail against the ruling class here in America. Doesn't mean you don't need a ruling class. We need a good ruling class. We believe in hierarchies. We believe that some people should commit themselves to a life of duty and a life of. A life of education or a life of delivering results for the people. Best examples of this would be Winston Churchill or Dwight D. Eisenhower or George s. Patton or General MacArthur. That generation understood duty. This generation understands comfort and luxury. And I don't mean students. I mean the people running these schools. So Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix, Arizona, and all boys school, which is basically the Harvard Westlake, if you know what lost kind of Los Angeles private culture. It is the top of the top gave parents seven days notice by saying, you must vaccinate your children or else you must vaccinate your teenage children that go to Brophy or else they will not be able to travel for sports and they must be subject to twice a week testing and all the other medical violation of privacy from parents to the school. Now, students have been leaving Brophy in big numbers and Brophy doesn't want you to know that. In fact, many members of the baseball team went to a different school in the Phoenix area just because of this. And Brophy is not backing down. They are digging in saying, no, no, no, we control your children. And I've looked into this because obviously we're headquartered in Phoenix. And I'm just stunned and I'm so interested in this thing that why is it that one of the best schools in the country, Brophy, is being run by clowns like who's in charge here? And after some investigation, it made perfect sense. It is exactly what is running Washington D.C. an unholy alliance between trigger happy activists and super weak corporate leaders that sit on the board. That's what's running the country. And so what's happened at Brophy is not only are they pushing the vaccine, but they don't want you to know this. And this is what, this is how, this is how sinister they are. They are making phone calls to scholarship students, which are their 6th, 7th and 8th grade students that are Hispanic, almost all Hispanic students that have an average income of $22,000 a year. They are calling the Hispanic families, families threatening them if they don't get their kids vaccinated. That there's a long waiting list and we have other kids to get into school. You hear that? The whites that are running Brophy are making phone calls to Hispanic kids and Hispanic parents threatening the Hispanic because Hispanics have very low rates of vaccination. Why? Well, because they have a lot of cultural, let's say, skepticism towards mass medical experimentation towards minority communities. And guess what? That's warranted. Mass sterilization was a program that was done in Central America. Happy to get into the specifics of that. And I'm not necessarily saying the vaccine is mass sterilization, but that's a whole different. Maybe you come to that conclusion independently. And that also was done on the black community here domestically in America. So what are the white liberals doing at Brophy? They're working the phones to not to actually make sure that the kids at Brophy can read, but to call Hispanic families threatening them, saying that you're going to lose your scholarship to our school if you don't take the vaccine. Now the president of this school is Bob Ryan, who told all the kids to leave their white privilege at the door while he goes works the phones to go intimidate at risk Hispanic families saying if you don't take this piece of medicine, I'm going to destroy your life. The chairman, the lead board member is John Graham, who I'm told is a Republican donor to establishment moderate causes here in Arizona. And what's been so amazing is that the Brophy parents wrote a long letter and threatened legal action and they don't care. And that is another example of what's happening on the macro and the micro, isn't it? Is that what's happening at the FBI and happening at the Department of Defense of the institutions that we used to trust crumbling have now come to your local private school. The arrogance, the deceit, the treachery, the self righteousness. So the only thing that we have left is the people. The only thing we have left is to then speak clearly and courageously against the people in charge and say this is not gonna, this is not the way this works. You don't get to call Hispanic families and intimidate them and say that you get to take away their scholarship because they don't wanna take your Pfizer AstraZeneca vaccine that you might be a shareholder of. That's not the way it works. We need institutions we trust. And when institutions start to mandate medicine against parents will for minors and saying we will crush your life, that's a violation of the American promise. Did you know that if you shop at Nike, they turn around and give your hard earned dollars to pro abortion groups like Planned Parenthood and the Population Council? Sinister folks.

Today there is a breaking bombshell story of Joe Biden's phone call with the coward former president of Afghanistan. And it's a remarkable story that the national security apparatus is now leaking on Joe Biden. And you know what's so funny is that if you want to talk about a phone call that is impeachable, this phone call is definitely impeachable. I'm going to get to that in just a second. I want to close off this idea, this, this theme that we're talking about with the Brophy College Preparatory School in Phoenix, Arizona. And if anyone has any connection there, you better let your voice be heard. Very soon, we need schools and institutions, places that pass down values that have not been totally corrupted by this current regime. Just to think how sick and demented you must be to go pick up the phone and say, oh, yes, hello. Is this a Sanchez family? I'm here to notify you that your free education that you have from Brophy, the scholarship that we're offering you, actually, is going to be put into jeopardy if your child doesn't get vaccinated. Thanks so much. That's. That's what's happening right now. And by the way, they're doing that in almost every major city across the country. So if anyone has a connection to this school, you better let your voice be heard. It's a shame to actually see people in charge of that school run it into the ground. They are destroying things that used to work, and they'll be held responsible for that. They'll be known, the president of this school and the main donors and the board members, they will be known as the people that destroyed Brophy. Okay? Biden told Afghan president they needed to change perception of the Taliban's rapid advance as Biden continues to report claims that no one could have known that the Afghan army would collapse. Bombshell transcripts from July reveal he pressured Afghan President Ghani to create perception that the Taliban wasn't winning, whether it's true or not. So somebody from the national security apparatus leaked this. The reason why, I don't know. Reuters on Tuesday released released excerpts from the call between Biden and Ghani right before the president fled. You see, Joe Biden, you should have learned your lesson. The national security apparatus listens to everything a president does. Donald Trump learned that lesson. So Biden said there's a need, whether it's true or not, to project a different picture. Biden knew that the country was falling apart. Biden knew that Kabul was going to be taken. Joe Biden said in this call here, and there is a need. There is a need to project a different picture. I need to tell you the perception around the world and in parts of Afghanistan, I believe that things are not going to go well in terms of the fight against the Taliban. Joe Biden knew. And then Joe Biden says, well, I don't think anybody anticipated it. He said on the phone call that he was anticipating it. I talked to somebody at high level of the intelligence service yesterday, an inside source and a bombshell allegation that we're going to share here on the Charlie Kirk show we intentionally gave the Taliban the weaponry, that we armed the Taliban willingly with weapons, rifles and helicopters. Our government did that. Will Congress look into that? No. Nancy Pelosi is too busy trying to get Eric Trump's text messages. She's too busy going after major tech companies. Biden continued by saying he said that publicly. He said during this that it would be proceeding in a secure and orderly way. The president then said of Afghanistan, no, it's not. Joe. Biden continued in his speech. Again, this is leaked. I'm trying to put this all together that the essence is that Biden had private conversations totally contradictory to what Ghani was publicly saying and what he was publicly saying. Was there a deal that was brokered? Is there another phone call that needs to be leaked? Is the real question from the national security apparatus. Was there another conversation that Biden had that handed over the weapons to the Taliban? I often talk about the crushing debt and lack of jobs that come with the broken college system in our country and how entering a trade or vocational school can provide great career opportunities where you are and skills will always be in demand. I want to talk to you about a good friend of mine, a great American who runs an organization called the American Institute of Non Destructive Testing. Maybe you're looking for a career. Maybe you just graduated high school. Maybe you are not really sure what you want to do with your life. Well, the American Institute of Non Destructive Testing is a place where you can get a skill in six months. And 93% of the people that go through this training get jobs with wages of $50,000 and can earn to 70 or $80,000 a year. And you might say, what is it? Well, it's trainingndt.com that's trainingndt.com to learn how you can have an opportunity to work in industries such as aerospace, oil, gas, nuclear and alternative energy as a technician performing critical inspections that make our world a safer place. So non destructive testing is where you are inspecting America's critical infrastructure. Let me tell you why this is important. It's recession proof. Even if the economy goes down, things we already have need to get inspected. Critical infrastructure needs to be looked at. Rocket ships need to be looked at. Nuclear plants need to be looked at. And guess what? The people going into non destructive testing needs to go up because so many people are retiring. There's a huge opportunity out there for you. Their program consists of six months online education followed by three weeks at the American Institute campus using state of the art inspection equipment such as ultrasonics, capturing x rays and producing magnetic fields to inspect critical components to ensure their safety and reliability. I want you to know that Don Booth, the CEO, is a patriot, and his whole team cares about the future of every single graduate. So if you guys are looking for a job, looking for a career, looking for the next thing to do in life, or maybe you're 40 or 50 years old, you're like, man, I want a fresh start. Go to trainingndt.com and learn about this exciting and rewarding career. We here on the Charlie Kirk show want to give the muscular class a voice. 93% job placement. Pretty amazing. No college can tell you that. 93% job placement. Working with your hands. Maybe in aerospace, oil, gas, nuclear, or alternative energy. Go to trainingndt.com and learn about this exciting and rewarding career. I found something super interesting, and let's get Kayleigh McEnany ready to go when I call for it. Is that Joe Biden said this. I need you to tell the perception around the world and in parts of Afghanistan, I believe, is that things are not going well in terms of fighting against the Taliban. And there is a need, whether it's true or not, there is a need to project a different picture. Biden said. That will change perception. That will change an awful lot, I think. Now, what's so incredible about this statement from Biden is that it is. It's another example that this regime and the way that Democrats view government is not about actually implementing things that are objectively real. It's about whether or not they can persuade you on television that what they're saying is actually happening. I want you to listen to this carefully. Joe Biden said to Ganny, and again, this is a leaked call from the national security apparatus, and there is a need whether it's true or not. Hold on. Hear that? Joe Biden is saying, look, it doesn't matter if it's actually true.
- [21:40]
C
We.
- [21:41]
A
The way we do things in America. Let me. Let me give you a little bit of a 101 here, Ganny. I know you're new to the whole corrupt ruler thing, but the way we do stuff in America, it's called a mirage. We just give everyone a nice impression that we're doing a good job, but when in reality, we're plundering their future and deteriorating their currency and keeping the borders open. I need you to lie, Ghani. Why are you such a bad liar? That's what this whole phone call was about. Biden was saying that, I know the Taliban's gonna take over, but why don't you lie better now? This, this, this. This really reveals two things. Number one, it reveals how your leaders actually view their role as running the country, as play actors. But number two, it also reveals that the big lie that Lloyd Austin and Mark Milley and John Kirby and Tony Blinken have been telling, the big lie that they had no idea that Kabul was going to fall, was, is pathologically untrue. Let's play cut 56 here of Kayleigh McEnany. She said it perfectly. Play tape.
- [22:51]
D
Yeah, I want to hone in on what a bombshell this is. You have the President of the United States, the commander in chief, in a July phone call saying to the Afghan president, Ghani, whether it is true or not, I want you to say, in essence, in this part, I'm paraphrasing that the Taliban is not doing as well as common knowledge or is what's being reported. He's telling the Afghan president to lie.
- [23:16]
A
And then the next cut, she expands on that. Play tape.
- [23:19]
D
Rick Grenell told me last week that in May, May of this year, there was intelligence saying that the Taliban was on the march. So think about this. President Biden has this intelligence, intelligence the Taliban's on the march. He's telling the Afghan president to lie. And then you have that July 13th dissent cable where you have 22 foreign service officers saying the conditions on the ground are dire, but yet he's telling the Afghan president to lie.
- [23:46]
A
And so Biden is telling the Afghan president to lie for a couple different reasons. Number one, that's all Washington, D.C. knows how to do. Mislead you, misdirect you. Telling the truth is a violation of how the ruling class runs our country. And Ghani is like, well, what do you mean, I have to lie? Biden tells him very clearly, look, being straight up, that's not how we do things around here. Now the man finally speaks himself, the chief architect. I knew this was gonna happen. You see these sly serpents, they eventually need to come and get a little bit of sunlight. Cut 52. Get that ready. Which is the man who is running the federal government of the United States is a name that everyone needs to know. This guy is as slippery as it comes. He is a transactional lobbyist. He is no good. He is the chief of staff to the White House. Joe Biden is not running the country. This guy is running the country. Ron Klain, who, by the way, interestingly enough, wasn't Ron Klain in charge of Obama. Obama. Biden's failed response to Ebola or something like that. There's something There with Ron Klain. Right. Well, Ron Klain finally surfaces. He says, look, it's really easy to second guess, but I think the Biden admin managed it as well as it could been managed. Look, they're so clever in how they say, well, yeah, it's not like we have to second guess. Hindsight is 20 20. Look, when you talk about the Hindenburg, you're gonna have a little bit of a high, you know, little bit of hindsight. 2020, when you talk about one of the most disastrous moments in American foreign policy, which, by the way, we still have Americans stranded in Kabul and they're taking a victory lap. Play cut 52.
- [25:36]
E
It's easy to second guess, but let's just be clear. America was in this war for 20 years. And I think any effort to unwind that, any effort to bring our troops out, any effort to end our military presence in Afghanistan was going to be filled with heartbreaking scenes and difficulties. And I think the Biden administration has managed that as well well as it could be managed under the circumstances.
- [26:00]
A
We were placed in the management class. You see, managerialism is a philosophy that has ruled D.C. over the last 100 years. But they're not even good at managing things. So here's a very basic question and every Republican needs to repeat this. Remember, we have to give Republicans clear instructions because Republicans are all over the place. Yet we got Republicans literally in Afghanistan right now. We got Republicans negotiating infrastructure. We're kind of a mess. Okay, you got Lindsey Graham, who's drafting up invasion plans of Laos. I'm not sure why. I'm kidding. That's a joke. Okay, you got him and John Bolton fantasizing about a ground invasion to reinvade Kabul. Ah, again, we could restart our 20 year occupation. You got Liz Cheney, who just bought a new drum of war. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. We get to go to war soon. The profits are going to flow. Republicans need to just say one thing. It's so simple. Who was in charge and who made the decision and what was the process of the decision to give $85 billion in weapons to the Taliban? That's it. That's the whole thing. Also abandoning Americans and 13 dead Marines, giving up Bagram airbase. Those are important too. But the thing that is the most. It's the tell. It is the revealing fact is who made the decision to give the weapons to the Taliban. I have it on high authority, according to somebody I talked to in the intelligence apparatus, that every other country destroyed their weapons except the United States at Bagram Air Base, we just left them. We abandoned them. How is that possible? You see the weapons, it is the thread that unravels the entire sweater. It is the open point. It is the weak point. Now, why is that? Because this is against customary military protocol. When we left Iraq, we destroyed almost all of our weapons. Not all of them. Some got in the hands of isis, but we destroyed a lot. In fact, I remember when we withdrew out of Iraq, this was kind of pre Twitter. There were videos circulating, and it really made Americans angry of us destroying weapons. And people say, well, why don't you bring them back? That's far too logical for some of the people that run our government. But you're right, we should bring them back. Some of them you can't because of logistics reasons and weight and cargo, but at least destroy them so a bad guy doesn't come along and get them. So let's do cut 50 where Biden calls an Afghanistan withdrawal an extraordinary success. So according to him, an extraordinary success is giving Black Hawk helicopters, night vision goggles, and hundreds of thousands of weapons to people who hate us and killed Americans. Play cut 50.
- [29:02]
F
No nation, no nation has ever done anything like it in all of history. Only the United States had the capacity and the will and ability to do it. And we did it today. The extraordinary success of this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless courage of the United States.
- [29:23]
A
What is he talking about? I mean, the media is so dishonest. Imagine being a reporter for a picket publication, Bloomberg, and you listen to this. Oh, yeah. No country's ever done anything like this. You just kind of like, fall into the hypnosis. It's what it is. Joe Biden missed his call at some sort of traveling carnival. Going to, like, Dubuque, Iowa, and hypnotizing kids for a couple reasons, a couple minutes. No country's ever done anything like this. What are you talking about? You mean no country's ever screwed up a withdrawal as badly as this? Since that. We screwed up a withdrawal as badly as Saigon. Thirteen Marines are killed, and we just hand over the weapons to the other side. Eric Trump said something very wise. He said we need a refund as a nation. And all the supplies we left and vehicles behind in Afghanistan. Play cut 46.
- [30:22]
C
You know, so we as Americans are paying 38% taxes, federal taxes, so we can arm people that detest our way of life, that hate who we are as Americans, who hate Christianity, who hate our way of life. I feel like we're getting ripped off every single day. And then you see him looking at his watch? We want a refund. As a nation, this guy is a disaster. He's literally flushing the respect of our country down the tubes. He's embarrassing our flag. He's embarrassing everything that we stand for as the greatest country on earth.

And Adam and GSK From Open the Books.com has some breaking news. Open the Books.com Biden officials recently directed U.S. federal agencies to scrub their websites of official reports detailing the $82.9 million billion dollars in military equipment and training provided to Afghan security forces. You hear that? They're scrubbing the servers. Everybody. They're doing the Hillary Clinton. They're taking out hammers and they're destroying the records of the $83 billion in military equipment. This is why I love Adam Angieski with what he does at Open the Books. He is a transparency crusader. So he files all the FOIA requests to find out where this money goes because your Republican congressmen are too busy negotiating infrastructure with Joe Biden and keeping the southern borders wide open. And so Adam and Ski has published this and the report is on OpenTheBooks.com and your government just wiped all the websites. But thankfully, Open the Books still has records of all that because they filed the reports early enough. Do you know, if it wasn't for these outside groups that do this work, all these reports would be gone? So, for example, the Government Accountability Office reposted an audit of the US Military provided equipment, and it was just removed. The Special Investigator General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, just remove the audit. All of a sudden you go through this, you say, what are they trying to hide? I know what they're trying to hide. They're trying to hide all of the foreign weapons, all the weapons that we gave to our foreign adversaries. Twenty years ago, our world changed. We lost thousands of lives that horrific morning in September. Over the last 20 years, with chaos ensuing, brave men and women in our first responder communities entered the call and rushed into the unknown. As we watched in horror and as the morning unfolded before our very eyes. 343 firefighters lost their lives that day. And almost all our first responders who answered that call have perished since. We here at the Charlie Kirk show are proud to partner with Minutemen Coffee, a company that is unapologetically patriotic and constitutionally based, who honors all our men and women who serve and have served in the amazing country that we call home. The morning of September 12, America came together as one to honor all who lost their lives that day. And in the days and weeks and years to come. I'm excited to announce that the official coffee provider for this program, Minutemen Coffee, is proud to partner with the national fallen Firefighters Foundation, 911 tribute roast. The patriots at Minutemen do not just want to honor those lost lives that morning, but want to honor all our first responders and military servicemen and women who have perished since 9 11. They're seeking to raise awareness of the fact that they put their lives on the line for all of us. No matter where you live anywhere in this country, there are firefighters, medics and LEOs that have dedicated their lives to protecting and serving ours. We're proud to join Minutemen Coffee in giving back to those who have sacrificed so much for us and so many. So join us in producing the 911911 tribute coffee. And all the net proceeds will be raised to benefit those heroes and the amazing foundation this serves. Go to Minutemen Coffee.com promo code Charlie. Minutemen Coffee.com, promo code Charlie. So I want to get to. I want to finish this story here, which Jake Sullivan, who is he is basically a product of what is best called a credential ocracy. Now, credential ocracy is not a meritocracy. A credential rewards people based on where they went to school and who they know and who their parents are based on what they've actually done. We prefer a meritocracy. We prefer people to show me what you got. We will judge a tree based by its fruit. We will not judge you based on whether you have a degree from Yale that's somewhat and actually completely and totally irrelevant. It creates this form of an elite oligarchy. Truly. And it's a phrase I'm trying to get into the zeitgeist and into the mainstream now. Credential ocracy. Jake Sullivan is a perfect example of this. If you look at his resume, it's really not sure if he's ever done anything meaningful in his life except go to school and listen to lectures. How troublesome America is and why it needs to be changed. So Jake Sullivan says, I'm not going to call the Taliban an enemy. It's hard to put a label on it. So let me get this straight. The Taliban that killed five US journalists in 2016 and killed thousands of Americans, they're not an enemy. What are they? He's gonna play a word game. No, no, they're not an enemy. They're a rival. They're a competitor. We're in a horse race with the Taliban. You see, we in the Taliban, we Consider ourselves partners. Play. Cut 48.
- [35:54]
G
Just on those lines. What is the Taliban? Are they now our frenemy? Are they our adversary? Are they our enemy? Are they our. What are they?
- [36:05]
A
Well, it's hard to put a label
- [36:07]
F
on it in part because we have
- [36:08]
A
yet to see what they are going to be now that they are in control, physical control of Afghanistan. I mean, it's hard to put a word on it because I don't have a word that I could say on television that will make you all happy. You see, the founders understood the weight of words. They knew where words came from. They knew their Latin, they knew their Greek, and they were very careful with what words they used. If you read the Declaration, you read the Constitution, these are beautiful documents because these are people that understood language and they understood the impact of using a wrong word. This regime is able to tyrannize you because they use words interchangeably to try to disguise and camouflage and create a mirage for their deceit and their lies. So Joe Biden comes out and he tells the Afghan president, look, man, look son, I need you to lie. I know the country is going to fall. I need you to change the perception. Because changing perception is what we do in D.C. we don't change reality, we change perception. Like free trade. Oh yeah, free trade's so wonderful. We get a lot of plastic from China, even though it's destroying the American middle class. But we create the perception that it's terrific. It doesn't matter if the borders are wide open. It's, we're a nation of immigrants. Don't you understand? The perception, not the reality. You see, could you imagine if Winston Churchill, the greatest man to live in the 20th century, told his war cabinet, look, we have to change the perception that we're winning the war. Someone would say they're bombing hospitals and they're trying to invade the southern tip of our island. What do you mean change the perception? You see, one of the reasons we're in the mess that we're in is we have allowed the simulation, the propagandists, to say that perception is reality and it's not. Now that might be true in communication strategy and that might be true in all that other things. But if you're the President of the United States, you have to deal in objective truth. You don't get to all of a sudden wish your way through some sort of mass propaganda campaign like, well, the Taliban are now actually wonderful people. They don't actually marry 12 year olds and they don't cut Christians heads off. In fact, the Taliban. They're better Americans than people from Tennessee. We have a government, as revealed by this leaked phone call, that believes that as long as you are hypnotized through a right perception, they don't ever have to fix the reality.
