Friday. Not a big surprise. If you study the left and you know that they are always going to indulge their totalitarian impulses, they will use the promise of utopia to eventually have a small group of rather tactical sociopaths to exert control over you. Cut 63 back on the archives of the Charlie Kirk show, we talked about this at length. Now, why is it important to talk about things that you are able to predict? Well, it's important and Rush used to do this all the time, God bless him, because then you're able to say what even comes next beyond that and how to stop it. If you understand how the left operates and the pattern of which they are able to make decisions, it makes you a more informed activist and voter and you should not be taken by surprise when these things happen. Cut 63. They don't like the fact that police forces are able to implement their own standards of conduct. That's why the Department of Justice is marching in to the city of Minneapolis to go investigate George Floyd's killing. Wasn't that the whole point of the trial? No, no, no. You see, this is. You guys got to look at this three dimensional. Why is Merrick Garland marching the Department of Justice into Minneapolis? He wants to nationalize the Minneapolis police force. That's why. To enforce certain laws that they want to see enforced that go after conservatives and not enforce other ones. They want to create a modern equivalent of a national police force. I think we cut that a little short. And then I had a piece on April 30 and human events Defund the Police is a Trojan horse. The real objective is a national police force. It's now coming to Portland and they will assume control of the local police department. So we had a listener. I want to thank this listener who emailed this to me. Freedom Charlie Kirk.com Alex who said, hello, my name is Alex. I'm a Turning Point president at Portland State University. I don't know if you heard about this, but the Department of Justice has taken over the Portland Bureau of Police. Is this legal? I don't know. They'll find a way to make it legal, though. We are not a nation of laws. We're a nation of political will. Where you want a certain outcome, they'll find some way to contort some statute or sign some executive order or have some judge rule in their favor. Laws do not stop these people. They are mere suggestions or speed bumps in their conquest for a totalitarian power grab. So what is the deeper lesson about the left nationalizing the police force, which, again, Republicans should have been leading on this for quite some time. But they're so focused on just what's happening in front of them. You see, they're so focused on, oh, it's a bad idea to abolish the police. It was never about that. It was never about abolishing the police. It was about making blood pour through the streets. It was about having the rapes and murders and arsons and robberies go up where then people will then eventually scream, federal government, save us because we have been abandoned by our local leaders. It's about creating a crisis. We have crisis manufacturers in our country, and they are good at it. The crisis manufacturers in our country intentionally force the hand of something you don't want to see where the only salvation you could possibly have is the federal government coming in. And this war on local police is about removing sheriffs. It's about removing decentralized control. The Democrats don't like things that they can't control. And I don't even want to call them Democrats. It is totalitarians. And I believe that every single fifth grader in America, and again when they're a freshman in high school and again when they're a senior in high school, should have to take a class on the history of totalitarianism. If you want to make America a strong country, show them the pattern that every single country seems to find itself at some point in time. A pattern that is built into the DNA of our fallen nature, which is to have a smaller and smaller group of people control more and more while they provide us just enough to survive, but not enough to thrive and to have ambition, take risks, build new things, an aristocracy, an autocracy, an oligarchy, whatever you might want to call it. The Founding Fathers found this viewpoint to be repugnant, immoral, against the correct and proper view of a constitution. But this is where we're headed, and this is what I call the great squeeze. The great squeeze coming From Menlo Park, California and Washington D.C. where are the richest counties in America? Where are they? Where are the richest counties? Well, the richest counties in America are around Washington D.C. and Menlo park in the Bay Area. The highest income counties in America, Loudoun County, Virginia, Howard County, Virginia, Fairfax, Virginia and then Santa Clara, California, Arlington County, Virginia. The only one that's there that is not exactly applicable, but it's actually where all the pharmaceutical companies are headquartered is Hunterdon county in New Jersey. Many of you might know that New Jersey is the capital of pharmaceutical land usa. And then the eighth most wealthy county is San Mateo County, California. So the great squeeze that is happening on America is a bicoastal squeeze of people that run Facebook and people that run the Department of Justice, people that run Google and people that run the epa. And they're the problem. The fixation that they have is why on earth do we have to continue to be in a country with. The deplorables or otherwise known as the kulaks, to use a Soviet Union example. We talked about this on Monday, which the kulaks in the Soviet Union were middle class folks who owned a couple acres and they made some money and employed some people and they were the targets of the ruling class of the Soviet Union and the Bolsheviks take their land away. It is evil, wrong to own any part of the earth, especially that much of the earth. So where do these ideas come from? We talked about this quite some time. It comes from for quite some time college campuses and high schools that are teaching our children this sort of ideology. And now they finally have an ally as the President of the United States, Joe Biden or whomever that is with the people around him that are willing to use the apparatus of government and corporate power to squeeze out your values. Where this is the top down revolution, where they are preemptively striking middle America because they feel that you, the plumber, the welder, the mom, the dad, the teacher, the taxi driver or the auto repair shop owner, that you are the problem and the only way this is going to get remedied is if the last vessel of power we have politically left the Republican Party starts to realize what's actually happening here. This is not a policy debate. And this might be my biggest complaint against Liz Cheney. Liz Cheney, I think believes that we're still in some sort of a Socratic back and forth that everyone means well now this is a absolute totalitarian style power grab being executed by people that do not share our values and want to make America in an image that none of us want to ever see actually happen. And this has been. Matt. This has manifested itself in a variety of different ways, from college campuses to corporate boardrooms. And we get questions about this all the time, which is, why is it that the powerful people are so fixated on us, Conservatives, Christians, everyday Americans, people that are part of working with their hands, or as we call it on this program, the muscular class. You've been crushed by the lockdowns. You've been crushed by the massive corporations. And so the Republican Party, if it really takes its voters seriously, can make some massive changes to this. It's actually a very exciting time for the conservative movement. It's an exciting time for the conservative movement because outside of partisan politics, 80% of the country. 80%, outside of the people that live in McLean, Virginia, outside of the people that live in less West Hollywood and Winnetka, Illinois, OR Highland Park, Texas, 80% of the country of all races and all backgrounds, all religious beliefs. They know in their soul and their spirit that it is not good for our republic to have the great squeeze executed from corporate America and from unelected, faceless bureaucrats, the fourth branch of government. And God bless our founding fathers, because we still have some time to work this out. And this is what makes a republic different than democracy. A republic is intentionally slow. A democracy is fast. A republic takes time to revolutionize our systems. A republic by definition is decentralized. Story I read on the airplane, actually from Seattle to Phoenix, a very nice passenger just wearing masks. I don't know how people recognize me with masks, but he just kind of. He said, here, you want to read this, right? I said, yeah, sure. And it was the Epic Times. They do a really nice job, I have to say. Epoch Times. I'm sure a lot of you have seen them. And a story struck me immediately. I don't know if it was the front page. I guess it was. I don't know. Anyway, I said, oh, I know that high school. And it's a story called the Cost of Lockdowns. And I said, oh, man, I know Glenbrook North. So I went to Wheeling High School in Chicago. A lot of you have heard me say that. It was a great high school. When I went there, by the way, it was just. It was a place where no one cared about who your parents were, where you came from. You worked hard, you treated people with mutual respect. The entire other portion of district 214 just was kind of all upper middle class, white, spoiled kids. And Wheeling was the working Class, school. It was awesome, really was. And so it's not awesome anymore. There are no critical race theory nonsense. And so I saw this. Glenbrook north, down the street from where I grew up was kind of the rich kids school. Quite honestly it was, it was the equivalent of what would be Chaparral here in Phoenix or anyway, Highland Park High School in Texas. And so I read the story and I said, you know what, at some point these leaders who have been running our country, they're going to have to answer for stories like this. They're going to have to answer story of Dylan Buckner. Going to read from this story. Chris Buckner, Dylan's father points to photos and toys of cheetahs saying Dylan liked the animals because of their speed. He gestures to a large model of a fish, a life size replica, the first one he caught with Dylan. On January 7th, the 18 year old Dylan Buckner took his own life due to depression, his father says because of the lockdowns caused by JV Pritzker in the pandemic. There's this whole spread here in the Epoch Times. No indications of depression, no indications of any issues. He was the quarterback of the team, looks to be an award winning quarterback, very talented. And his dad said, quote, there is no doubt in his mind that the school closures and the state's aggressive stay at home orders aggravated and worsened Dylan's mental health to the point of no return. At what point are parents going to start pushing back against these school boards and these maniacs that are literally creating conditions where we are seeing a rise in teen suicides that we have never seen before? This story is heartbreaking of Dylan Buckner here at Glenbrook North High School. And we're just supposed to accept this? It's a tragic article. You guys can check it out at epic times. Nicole Avina, who is a neuroscientist at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Of course she won't be on TV anytime soon for saying this. People are worried about a second wave, but I guarantee you we will have a second wave of mental health crisis. I encourage all of you to become very aware of four letters foia, Freedom of Information act, which means that you can FOIA all of your local officials. Ask them for the suicide data in your local area versus year over year. Almost every major area across the country has seen an increase. And JB Pritzker, you worthless guy who was born on third and thought you hit a triple, this death is on you. And JB Pritzker, you are the bottom of the barrel man. You're a self righteous entitled sloth who has never done anything meaningful in your life. And I have to read stories of kids that I know, the type of kid this is in a beautiful community who was on pace to have a full life. He took his life because of you, J.B. pritzker, because you locked down society. And we want to stop the spread. The CDC says that the suicide rate of males has increased. It's the second leading cause of death for young people in America right now. Not the Chinese coronavirus, the second leading cause of death. And if anyone's struggling with that right now, you know, you can always email us. Freedom charliekirk.com It's a very real problem. It's not something we should be trivializing. It's not something and everyone should be unafraid to talk about and communicate with it. But our leaders did this. They have created this condition that have interrupted the development of children all across the country. And I hope that the adults, the leaders in our society start to take this very seriously because they currently aren't. Thanks so much for listening everybody.
