complaining that the Biden administration is actually doing everything on the border worse than the Trump administration. But why is it that it feels as if we are slow to move against Joe Biden? I remember against Barack Obama. It was organic. It was real. There was a response that was unscripted. Patriots across the country rose up and started Tea Party groups. Candidates ran for office. Rick Santelli's famous rant in 2009 or 2010. And I'm reminded by a phrase that substance does not matter as much as style in the eyes of most voters. You see, what we make fun of Joe Biden for is actually a winning quality to most voters. The fact that Joe Biden is kind of sleepy and slow. The fact that Joe Biden falls upstairs, which is a rather remarkable thing. It's exactly what the ruling class wants. You see, Joe Biden is like the grandparent that kind of falls asleep in front of the television at 7 o'. Clock. You're able to do whatever you want. If you ask for something, he'll say, yeah, sure, free money, checks, whatever you want. Donald Trump was definitely not that. Donald Trump was the Energetic, forward thinking, opinionated family member who comes in and tells you exactly the way things are going to be done. America was convinced under Donald Trump that they no longer wanted to be exhausted by politics. When in reality it was the Democrats on the left that were doing the ones that were wearing us down, they were the ones that were filing the lawsuits, they were the ones marching through the streets. Donald Trump was just trying to reform the country. But more than anything else, the reason why we're not seeing this robust response yet, and I think we're gonna see it hopefully soon. I'm not saying people don't care and I'm not saying that people are not interested. Generally we're seeing massive responses and massive crowds everywhere we go. But it pales in comparison to the Tea party rally in 2010 is a couple of things. Number one, the Democrats are much more sophisticated. They've learned their lessons and they do not want to provoke a response by a charismatic Bolshevik like Bernie Sanders. Or if AOC was running the country, forget it. Instead the kind of discreet Democrat Party that is able to execute their treachery, their deceit outside of the eyes of the most the rest of the country. As long as you say the right things and you don't tweet bombastic phrases, the style is actually much more attractive to people than the substance. But I also believe that there's something deeper happening in our country, which is one of the reasons why the woke industrial complex seems to be growing at a rapid pace. Parents asked me this question. In fact at the event I was last evening, two incredible people. They said, Charlie, I want my kids to go to a good school. I want my children to have a nice career. So I'm afraid to speak up. Said, as long as you are more afraid of the cost then the action of doing what is right, then they're going to win. You see, one of the main reasons why they have gained momentum and that the left remains in power of our country is that decent people are living rather enjoyable lives. Otherwise said as there's a lot to lose, parents and business owners are afraid of the potential backlash against them. Their children might be called names, they might be picketed and protested. The left has made public examples of people on this. We call this cancel culture. But it really is the modern day equivalent of the cultural guillotine. You step out of line, you are going to have your head metaphorically cut off. But the head is not your actual head. It's your career, it's your reputation, it's your friends, it's your social network, it's your fraternity, it is your life's work. Step on up French Revolution style. The Jacobins want to have a go at you. So what does that do? What that does is it makes you conform against your will. It makes you less likely to speak your mind, more likely to engage and indulge in self censorship, more likely to go through the process even though you know what your children are being taught is drivel. Even though, you know, like at Loyola Academy in Chicago, they are not allowing a Turning Point USA group to be formed and they're teaching all the white kids in that school that they are inherently racist through white privilege seminars. Now parents are starting to speak out, but nothing will really change until parents are willing to say the cost is not as important to me as being courageous. The cultural guillotine and the public display of humiliation is a tactic used by every single one of these leftists and they know it works. The virus has changed so much in our life and I got a scary crash course in home title theft. Home title theft is when a criminal, a cybercriminal is able to hack into your deed without you even realizing it. The deed to your home.

So what do we do about this? What do we do about the fact that the Democrats and Joe Biden seem to be executing a power grab? A political, some would call it a revolution, but it's a political plan. Very discreetly redefining and remaking America in their image. How do we overcome the fact that so many people are afraid of the cost of being courageous? Well, I'll tell you, I was in Naples, Florida yesterday amongst other places and I went to my friends grocery store. Now mind you, I thought it would just be a regular grocery store like Jewel Osco, if you're listening in Chicago, you know exactly what I mean. And I was blown Away. My friend, Alfie Oaks. He has a grocery store that would rival any Costco. And he has a beautiful sign up on the front of his store. Here's what it says. This is courage. This guy has come under attack from everyone. You might remember the viral video of all these people executing a checkout line and went viral of how on earth could a grocery store not have mandatory masks? Here's what it says. Attention, customers. Mask exemption guidelines. Those in our lovely government have ordered all persons entering indoor facilities to wear a mask. If you have a medical condition that prevents you from wearing a mask, you are exempt from this order. Due to HIPAA and the Fourth Amendment, we cannot legally ask you about your medical condition. Therefore, if we see you without a mask, we will assume you have a medical condition and we will welcome you inside to support our business. I have never seen a grocery store so packed in my life. 8,000 customers a day go to a grocery store called Seed to Table. Is that the name? Seed to Table? I think that's right. Seed to Table in Naples, Florida. And it hit me. I said, this is what's missing. One courageous man who opens up a vector. And by the way, the people there were so happy. They were living life. They had vibrancy, they were positivity, they had connection. They felt optimistic. And it's a micro of what's happening in Florida macro. You have a wonderful governor, Ron DeSantis. So the first thing that is needed is courage. Alfie was scheduled for cancellation against city, state and local county orders. And he stood the line and he is flourishing because of it. So that's the first lesson is when you take a courageous stand, you will be rewarded for that. Don't allow other people to say that. The cost of being courageous is somehow something to be fearful of. Very similar to my pastor, Rob McCoy, when he opened up his church fully in California. The other thing is public displays of support. Now, from a purely educational standpoint, this is something that we are doing at Turning Point USA every single day. Tonight in Nashville. Last week, three events. I spoke at multiple events this last weekend all across Florida outside of Turning Point. Next week we will be in San Jose. And that same night, Brandon Tatum, Tommy Laird and Graham Allen will all be at Clemson University. Turning Point usa. And what we're doing as students, we are gathering and organizing the next public displays of support. Where are the other groups doing that? What I saw at Seed to Table yesterday at Alfie's incredible grocery store is that we are still human beings that need human contact, that need to come outside of the Zoom and Skype box. And if we are serious about pushing back against the despotism and the tyrannical orders, we need to show them that their shutdowns and lockdowns, their orders of intimidation and the cultural guillotine is no longer going to work on us. Public displays of support, courage, building our own things, being resilient, resisting any sort of calls for cancellation against people that are being targeted simply and solely because of their political, religious or cultural beliefs. Those things are more necessary and more urgent than ever. Which is exactly why I believe that President Trump should be back out on the road and pushing these state legislators in Georgia and Arizona and Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan to reform their elections. And Georgia did do that. We did an entire podcast on that. It's more important than ever. And I want to explore with you some of these other news stories that are happening in the country and how they all tie together. But underlying all of it is this kind of paralysis that is plaguing the conservative movement. I'm telling you right now, we have to snap out of it and get back into action. Enough hoping the country is going to turn around. Hope is not a strategy. By now you've all heard me talk about how MyPillow is incredible. A lot of you are asking, how do I support Mike Lindell?

Yeah, that's a great question. What did happen to Andrew Cuomo? I'll tell you what happened to Andrew Cuomo. They're trying the new playbook. It's called the Governor Ralph Northam Playbook. Don't matter if I'm accused of something, I'm not resigning. That's the new playbook. The new playbook is you got a tough couple days and then they'll throw some smoke screen for you. They'll go attack a Republican for something and people will forget about it. The southern border should be the number one news story in the country. It's been a total media blackout on the story. Parts of the activist media they're somewhat covering was never about children in cages. For Schumer and for Pelosi and for aoc, it was only about hating Donald Trump and trying to turn suburban voters against Republicans. That was the only reason they were interested in that story. If it was about that, they would be at the southern border right now with all of their groups. Here's a question for you. Has the ACLU sued the Biden administration? I'm@aclu.org it says support racial justice and equality. And they asked me for some money and they need to go raise $750,000 immediately. And then racial equality can be achieved. And then they say we need to dismantle our systems of racism and trans people belong. And then it says our rights are. Asks Biden's to do list and then take action. I am scrolling through ACLU website aclu.org, oh, and then it says during. It literally says this. During the Trump administration we filed over 246 lawsuits. Says right here that the ACLU has over 1,700 staffers in each state, Washington, D.C. puerto Rico, fighting for people's constitutional rights. Yeah, right. They don't care about the Constitution. The ACLU is the most projection oriented. Psychological projection, meaning they're deflecting with their own inadequacies on other people. Anti constitutional group. The only thing I'll give them credit for is they have in the past defended freedom of speech, but they're even slipping on that. Says here we filed a lawsuit on behalf of the Sierra Club and the Southern Borders communities challenging President Trump's illegal use of emergency powers to take taxpayer funds Congress denied for his border wall. On the ACLU website, I see nothing about the thousands of kids in cages right now. Nothing. I see nothing about how children on the southern border have the Chinese coronavirus. The ACLU is silent on that. How about Amnesty International? Let's do this together. Amnesty International, which is another left wing miserable group. On the front page of Amnesty International, it says family separation in Xijiang. At least they're criticizing the Chinese Communist Party. I'll give them that. Nothing on the front page of Amnesty International. Nothing. Nothing about. They have a whole, they actually have an entire page@amnesty.org around detention. And they have nothing when it comes to the Biden administration. Non existent against Donald Trump. They were marching in the streets and they were clamoring and they were loud. Let's go to cut 58 of Kamala Harris. Remember what she used to say about children in cages play? Cut 58.
