Hey, everybody.
Why is John Kerry allowed back in the White House?
Susan Rice and the new Biden administration pushing forward Marxist ideas.
We talk about equity versus equality and so much more.
Email us your questions.
As always, freedom at charliekirk.com.
And if you'd like to support this program, go to charliekirk.com/slash support.
Marxism is in the White House.
Buckle up, everybody.
Here we go.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
I want to thank Charlie.
He's an incredible guy.
His spirit, his love of this country.
He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
Turning point USA.
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, Charlie Kirk here, joined today with Isabel Brown.
Excited to be here, as always, Charlie.
Living the dream.
Great day to be alive.
Email us your questions, freedom at charliekirk.com.
Always, my goodness, is there a lot of news to go through?
I encourage all of you to go and listen to our comments on the stock market.
I think we had a pretty good show on that in the other episode.
Okay, so I want to get to some sound here and just start to build out a couple things.
Let's go to Cut 53.
Jen Saki, who she's having a tough go at it, but she will circle back.
We'll tell you what we mean by that in a second.
Cut 53, Jen Saki declines to condemn Antifa.
Cut 53.
And then just one more.
The riots in Portland and the violence in Portland recently.
There was some discussion earlier about the January 6th rioters being reviewed by the DNI as domestic violent extremists.
Are the rioters in Portland also being viewed through the same lens, or is that something different that's the White House?
I think you and I talked about this yesterday and conveyed that all violence happening around the country will be reviewed as a part of the tasking that was done by the national security team, but I don't have anything to preview on it.
Total dodge.
Now, let me just kind of get into these White House press briefings.
I complimented Jen Saki and the White House team to do a press briefing the day they took the White House.
I thought that was bold.
However, you could tell she's getting visibly annoyed by one person who asks tough questions.
Just one.
And that's, is it Peter Ducey or is it Steve Doocy?
Peter.
Right.
Okay, it's Peter.
That's what I thought.
Steve is his father who hosts Talks and Friends.
Peter, who's great.
And Joe Biden even kind of got a little sharp with him the other day, got a little smart allocy.
Yeah, I noticed that.
But I want you to understand Jensaki if you're listening, which I don't think you are.
But if you do have the Charlie Kirk show streaming live in the White House press secretary's office, which I have been near there, right there before, then maybe you guys will learn something.
You think it's tough to have one bad guy there?
Do you know what it was like for Kaylee McEnaney?
She had like OAN, and that was it.
And Sarah Sanders, too.
It was brutal.
The whole room was against them.
And she's just kind of upset about one question.
But the essence of the question is this.
And I just want to compliment Peter Doocy because he's been relentless.
He has.
He's been asking the right questions.
He's super polite, by the way.
Yeah.
Not, he's just, by the way, way more polite than Jim Acosta.
A lot more.
And very direct and asking the right questions.
And why Jensaki will not denounce Antifa is perplexing.
It's puzzling, but it also makes sense.
It's happening in a Democrat state with a Democrat mayor with largely left-wing calls to action and violence.
And the refusal to condemn any sort of violence that is happening from the left for Mantifa or otherwise BLM Incorporated is increasingly telling.
I'm going to go to Cut 50.
Jen Saki says, I think this was a little bit of a flashback.
Jen Saki used to say when she was on CNN that she hopes Democrats in Congress break the rules.
Play Cut 50.
Madler is, I hope he's not following the rules.
Yes, the legal rules, but we need to be more rule breakers on the Democratic side and not play by the game that has always been played because we're dealing with Donald Trump.
This is your White House press secretary.
You probably never would have seen Kaylee McInenney or Sarah Huckabee Sanders make a statement like that on live television.
I would not think so.
And so the communications team for the White House is deciding that, or at least the decision they're making, is we will not answer anything that might have to do with denouncing left-wing violence.
We are going to have a heavy emphasis on racial equity and climate change.
Just right now, the bicyclist, is the bicyclist still talking or is Jen Saki up?
John Kerry was up today.
He's training for the Tour de France, the bicyclist.
Of course, John Kerry, most famous for not being able to ride his bicycle very well.
And it was a heavy emphasis.
Can we get Donald Trump clip talking about John Karl?
It was one of my favorite things.
And John Kerry had this bike crash.
Anyway, we wish him well.
And John Kerry is the new climate czar for the White House.
But you're starting to see some themes come together, everybody.
And what you're really seeing is the exposure of this fraud of unity.
Their definition of unity is the absence of opposition.
Their definition of unity is sit down and obey.
And unity sounds good.
It really does.
But very few people actually, when you nail it down to them, they want unity around certain agreeable big picture values and ideas.
But in the specifics, all of a sudden you're like, well, no, I'd rather have liberty.
It's a big difference.
So for example, you were raised Catholic, Isabel.
You ask a Catholic, you want unity?
Of course I do.
Well, you want unity, and all of a sudden we'll just say the Eucharist isn't the body and blood of Christ.
Well, hold on a second.
I thought you wanted unity.
Exactly.
All of a sudden, then you have liberty to have differences.
That's just one example of you're not going to be able to unite everyone around a radical political agenda.
And again, Joe Biden is governing with the absence of a mandate.
He is governing without any sort of charge from the American people.
You know who did have a mandate?
Barack Obama had a mandate in 2008.
You can say a lot about Barack Obama.
He won so convincingly, he won so overwhelmingly with so much support against John McCain that whatever he did, he did have a mandate to do that.
And yet we are still entertaining this unconstitutional impeachment.
Now, I believe it's unconstitutional.
We believe it's unconstitutional.
Some scholars are saying it isn't.
I don't know how they came to that conclusion, but that's going to be up for the United States Supreme Court to decide.
And Chief Justice John Roberts will not proceed, preside over the impeachment trial, which should make it unconstitutional altogether.
I want to go to Cut 42.
Rand Paul, who's phenomenal, by the way, and will be a guest on the Charlie Kirk Show podcast exclusively, only on the podcast.
Rand Paul will be on.
So make sure you subscribe to the Charlie Kirk Show podcast.
Take out your podcast provider, type in Charlie Kirk Show, hit subscribe.
He brought up a phenomenal point.
Rand Paul has been a superstar these last couple days, more outspoken, more vocal, more articulate, and more leadership than any other United States senator.
Play tape.
Hyper-partisan Democrats are about to drag our great country down into the gutter of rancor and vitriol, the likes of which has never been seen in our nation's history.
Instead of doing the nation's work with their new majorities in the House, the Senate, and the executive branch, Democrats are wasting the nation's time on a partisan vendetta against a man no longer in office.
It's almost as if they have no ability to exist except in opposition to Donald Trump.
Without him as their boogeyman, they might have to legislate and to actually convince Americans that their policy prescriptions are the right ones.
Senator Rand Paul, in 41 seconds, there had more wisdom than I have heard from a senator in quite some time.
So let's go through this piece by piece of what Senator Ram Paul has talked about here, because there's a lot, there's some phenomenally deep points here.
So number one, Democrats are about to drag our great country down into the gutter of rancor and vitriol.
Yes, the election, according to the Democrats, is over.
But now they're trying to bring back the passions of the election of a candidate who is not the president and resurrect all of the emotions around it for what purpose?
So he can never run again?
That's what impeachment is for now, is to prevent the running of another candidate.
That's why we have elections, everybody.
You don't like a candidate, run against them.
If you don't like a candidate, oppose them.
But then Rand Paul makes another perfect point, which is they have no ability to exist except in opposition to Donald Trump.
Republicans struggled with this, by the way.
Republicans, until Donald Trump came onto the political scene in 2015, they couldn't exist except in opposition to Obama.
Obama was so hated and rejected by the conservative base, it was all that tied a lot of the commentary and the announcements of the candidates in the 2016 race until Trump came along, when Trump was just this larger-than-life figure.
The Pledge of Allegiance can be hard to say at times.
I understand.
I pledge allegiance to the flag.
I don't know what comes next.
Let's play cut 54 of Los Angeles City Councilmember Kevin DeLeon.
Now, I'm going to just offer a little bit of grace here.
Maybe he just had his words twisted or play tape.
Madam President, today is Tuesday and time for the flag salute.
Mr. De Leon, can you please lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance this morning?
Thank you very much, Madam President.
It would be an honor.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
Underinvincible.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
For which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
It's tough.
It is a tough thing to remember.
It's just too long, maybe.
I don't know.
You heard him say, oh boy, they're in the middle.
Maybe it was just too much.
Who knows?
So in other news, we're going to circle back with that.
You know, Jen Saki, let's go to Cut 43.
She's the new White House press secretary.
This is just in the last week.
She's saying, we'll circle back, Cut 43.
Do we have 43 yet?
We'll circle back to that.
We'll circle back on it, guys.
Just hang tight.
We're happy to circle back on this issue.
So let's go then to Cut 44.
Do we have 44?
Tulsi Gabbard coming in hot, saying that the mob who stormed the Capitol were behaving like domestic enemies of our country.
But John Brennan and Adam Schiff are also domestic enemies.
Pretty tough words, play tape.
The mob that stormed the Capitol on January 6th to try to stop Congress from carrying out its constitutional responsibilities were behaving like domestic enemies of our country.
But let's be clear.
The John Brennans, Adam Schiffs, and the oligarchs in big tech who are trying to undermine our constitutionally protected rights and turn our country into a police state with KGB-style surveillance are also domestic enemies and much more powerful and therefore dangerous than the mob that stormed the Capitol.
Tulsi Gabbard should switch parties.
I think she would find the Republican Party to be just the happier group of people that actually cares about civil liberties and freedom of speech.
Let's go to Cut 45, where Tulsi Gabbard continues by saying, I call upon you, President Biden, to denounce the efforts by Brennan and others.
Cut 45.
Now, President Biden, I call upon you and all members of Congress from both parties to denounce these efforts by the likes of Brennan and others to take away our civil liberties that are endowed to us by our Creator and guaranteed in our Constitution.
If you don't stand up to these people now, then our country will be in great peril.
According to Hillary Clinton, this is a Russian spy who's talking about our Constitution and our rights being endowed by our Creator.
But why all of a sudden would she mention John Brennan?
Well, this clip has been mentioned a couple of times.
She mentioned it as well on Tucker Carlson's show.
Let's go to Cut 46 of John Brennan calling libertarians terrorists.
Cut 46.
So I know looking forward that the members of the Biden team who have been nominated or have been appointed are now moving in laser-like fashion to try to uncover as much as they can about what looks very similar to insurgency movements that we've seen overseas,
where they germinate in different parts of a country and they gain strength and it brings together an unholy alliance frequently of religious extremists, authoritarians, fascists, bigots, racists, nativists, even libertarians.
Quite a list.
And it goes, and I think this might go back to the long dispute between Brennan and Rand Paul.
He just had to slip it in there.
Now, what's the consequence of this?
I think all of us want justice to be served.
Of course we do.
But when you start opening up the list of potential groups and individuals that you will try and infiltrate, monitor, call them insurgents within the country, then you're going to break the back of the United States Constitution.
And with it, there will be a lot of people that get caught up in the metaphorical crossfire here.
And you're cheapening the value of what the word terrorism actually means.
We've seen this playbook from the left over and over and over again, calling all conservatives deplorables and then all conservatives racists and white supremacists.
You no longer are able to understand the true gravity of what those allegations mean.
And I think we're going to see the same thing with this word terrorists.
It's being well overused.
I mean, it's being not just overused, but there's no nuance at all whatsoever.
And it seems as if they know that and they are now using it to try and justify a bigger and broader power grab.
And they say radicals.
Remember, AOC called herself a radical.
And if AOC and Rashida Talib and Elon Omar are going to fight against this big push, then we should fight alongside them because this massive potential increase in the surveillance state is a huge threat to our country.
49% of Americans say their top New Year's resolution is to save money in the next year.
Well, let's check that box right now.
When your family switches to PeerTalk from AT ⁇ T Verizon or T-Mobile, you could save over $800 a year.
That's real money every single month right back in your pocket.
And you don't have to sacrifice coverage.
Peer Talk is on the same network as one of the big carriers, but they charge you half.
That's right.
No gimmicks, no fluff added to your bills, which is why PeerTalk is the top-rated wireless company by consumer affairs.
Right now, get unlimited talk, text, and two gigs of data for just 20 bucks a month.
And if you go over on data usage, they don't charge you for it.
Grab your mobile phone, dial pound250, and say Charlie Kirk.
When you do, you'll save 50% off your first month.
Again, dial pound250 and just say Charlie Kirk.
It's the secret password.
PeerTalk is simply smarter wireless.
Jensaki is having a tough week, but we will circle back.
Let's play the montage of Jensaki just in the last week.
She's got a lot.
I don't know if she ever circled back to any of these questions.
Could you imagine if Kaylee McEnany would have been just saying something like this play tape?
I'll circle back if there's more I can share with you.
I'll circle back with you if there's more to convey.
I'll have to just circle back with you.
We can circle back.
I'm happy to circle back with you.
I can circle back.
I will have to circle back on that one.
That's an excellent question.
Oh, such an important question.
We will circle back with you and we'll circle back with you.
It's an interesting question, but we'll circle back.
I'm happy to circle back.
But I'll have to circle back with you on it.
It's a good question, but we'll circle back with you on this today.
We will certainly circle back with you more directly.
That's one week.
She's got a lot of circling back to do.
Maybe we should circle back with her on whether or not she circled back on any of those questions.
I'd like to know if she actually circled back with this.
And look, one of the reasons why, and Isabel, you made this point in the break, there's just kind of this clumsiness to how to answer these questions is we need to ask themselves, ask Jensaki and the White House, why are you there?
What is your mandate?
And actually by pursuing the impeachment and conviction of Trump, they are pursuing the one mandate they told themselves.
Right.
Their entire objective on the campaign trail was to get rid of Donald Trump whatever it took.
And then once we get there, we'll kind of figure out what we want to do once we're in office.
And you're seeing that so perfectly reflected in these daily press briefings, which kudos to them for having, by the way, starting on day one.
It is great to see a public face of the administration.
But her inability to answer any question virtually to a full extent just goes to show that they're still figuring out what they want to do.
And also, it's just, that's exactly right.
And the mandate to govern is missing.
And so the Democrats are afraid that if they remove Trump from the equation from impeachment or otherwise, that their party might actually fall apart.
Right.
That it's the only tie that binds them together.
Here's a question that she should have circled back on.
Let's go to Cut 63.
Is the White House concerned about the stock market activity we're seeing around GameStop?
And have there been any conversations with the SEC about how to proceed?
Well, I'm also happy to repeat that we have the first female Treasury Secretary and a team that's surrounding her.
And often questions about market we'll send to them.
But our team is, of course, our economic team, including Secretary Yellen and others, are monitoring the situation.
It's a good reminder, though, that the stock market isn't the only measure of the health of our economy.
It doesn't reflect how working and middle-class families are doing.
Okay, so I'm going to say something, and I don't want this to be misunderstood, but Isabel can help clarify it for me.
It's completely and totally irrelevant to the question whether or not Janet Yellen is a woman.
And by the way, I thought you don't believe in women or men.
Right.
I find it so ironic the left is so excited.
We have our first female vice president, which is awesome to see as a woman in politics.
That's an incredible accomplishment.
But again, you don't recognize that there even are two genders or that gender is anything but a social construct.
So I fail to see how that's relevant from their political side of things.
But, you know, we spent the first hour going into a deep dive on insider trading, on the situation with GameStop.
The public information is available.
It's out there.
So I find it interesting that the comms team this morning didn't brief the White House press secretary.
But no fear, everyone.
We have our first female Treasury Secretary.
Nobody freak out.
Is the person qualified?
I couldn't care less.
What does that have to do with anything?
What that is, is a crudgel.
Yes.
What that is, is Jen, not knowing how to answer a question, say, hey, take it easy.
You know, we have a woman in that position.
That's what that is.
Like, stop asking me tough questions.
And I'm happy to announce we have a first woman in that.
Could you imagine?
I just want you to imagine if President Trump did a press briefing and they were trying to dodge a question and they say, you do know we have the first gay man to be part of our cabinet, Rick Grinnell, the internet would have exploded in rancor and backlash.
Let's go to this story right here.
What just came out in Politico?
Our team just sent us a very alarming headline from a story in Politico that says Biden is staffing a commission on Supreme Court reform.
This is why Kirsten Cinema and Joe Manchin are so critically important.
Yep.
That if they do not allow the cloture vote to break the filibuster, none of these pipe dreams are going to happen.
None of them.
This is so much bigger than partisan politics, if you're listening to this right now.
This is the foundation of our legal system in our country that sets the United States of America apart from the rest of the world as our great experience of being Americans.
Now, I will say this, though, that Cinema and Manchin have said they don't want to lift the filibuster.
However, the filibuster has already been lifted thanks to Harry Reid on appointments.
Correct.
And so the Supreme Court additions.
Now, whether or not Manchin will vote to add seats to the Supreme Court, I don't see that happening.
I don't either.
And not with Kirsten Cinema, maybe John Tester, because he's so corrupt.
But I don't see Cinema or Manchin going in that direction.
We've been getting a lot of emails from you, freedom at charliekirk.com, about the great reset.
The great reset is happening right now in Davos, Switzerland.
And if you're scared about it, you should be.
And there are ways that we can push back against it.
Here's Justin Trudeau saying that you don't understand this pandemic is a great opportunity to build back better and to reset our entire global economy.
Building back better means getting support to the most vulnerable while maintaining our momentum on reaching the 2030 agenda for sustainable development and the SDGs.
Canada is here to listen and to help.
This pandemic has provided an opportunity for a reset.
This is our chance to accelerate our pre-pandemic efforts to reimagine economic systems that actually address global challenges like extreme poverty, inequality, and climate change.
It's a great opportunity, don't you understand?
That we are going to use all this suffering to remake the world in our image.
Justin Trudeau is not alone in trying to use government power to eradicate climate change.
Let's go to Cut 61 of the bicyclist, John Kerry, who's the special envoy for the climate, play 61.
What President Biden wants to do is make sure those folks have better choices, that they have alternatives, that they can be the people who go to work to make the solar panels.
They were making them here at home.
John Kerry, by the way, you want to know a product that you shouldn't buy anymore, Heinz Ketchup.
You might say, what does it have to do with anything?
Well, John Kerry married the Heinz ketchup heir.
I don't think that you're going to be able to make that big of a dent in that.
However, this is the equivalent of John Kerry telling oil workers, don't you understand they can just go make solar panels here.
It's his learn to code moment.
No different than Hillary Clinton going to West Virginia saying, oh, we're just going to teach them all how to do something else.
And it's really interesting to see how the Democrats have opened this administration differently than Barack Obama did in 2008.
We are dealing with a completely indifferent Democrat Party, everybody, than we were 12 years ago.
This is a Democratic Party that is more focused on racial equity, climate change, fundamentally redefining what it means to be an American.
And this just goes to show, as Andrew Breitbart said, politics flows downstream from culture.
The culture is now demanding this stuff.
We did a poor job educating our students.
We did a poor job in higher education in our country, something we deal with all the time at Turning Point USA.
And I encourage all of you to get involved at tpusa.com slash get involved.
We sent way too many kids to college.
And so then you have people in their 30s that were college educated that were told everything is racist, the country is awful, climate change is an existential threat.
12 years of that, all of a sudden John Kerry now has the public backing to go out and say, yeah, all these fossil fuel workers, we're going to go make them have solar panels.
In fact, Susan Rice came out yesterday.
The fact that Susan Rice is still allowed in our government is an outrage.
And I will do an entire Susan Rice takedown at a different date when the opportunity presents itself, because she's not in the news that much yet.
But she lied about Benghazi.
Not just once, but twice.
Let's go to Cut 40 of Susan Rice saying that the president has committed the whole of our government to advance racial justice.
This is so unbelievably dangerous, everybody.
Play Cut 40.
The President has committed the whole of our government to advancing racial justice and equity for all Americans.
I'm leading this effort out of the Domestic Policy Council.
I've assembled a first-rate team to drive this agenda forward.
We'll hold the federal government accountable for advancing equity for families across America.
Advancing equity for families across America.
Now, what does that actually even mean?
Well, they don't mean equality and they don't mean opportunity.
They mean redistributionism.
They mean taking from people that have to people that don't.
Equity equals Marxism.
It's that simple.
We've gone into great length of the philosophical roots of Marxism, the abolition of private property, the destruction of the Western system.
And so Susan Rice is now the Marxist policy director at the White House.
It's that simple.
That is the way we should define her.
And so what does success look like for Susan Rice?
Now, not once will you hear Susan Rice or the members of the Biden administration talk about family formation, the fact that 78% of black kids in our country are born without a father.
Maybe that's the way that you advance equity in our country.
Instead of saying we need to go take from people that have to people that do not.
The people that are now operating our government have now executed a college campus takeover of the greatest country in the history of the world.
Isabel, everything I'm looking at here, equity, racial equity, America's racist, America's terrible environment, all of it stems from college campuses.
And it's not new, Charlie.
This has been the reality on college campuses for many, many, many years.
And it frustrates me to no end that there are people like you and I who make it our job every day to tell the world if this is happening on college campuses, it's going to impact the rest of the world inevitably because these ideas graduate with students.
They don't just exist in isolation within the boundaries of any campus.
They ultimately enter the halls of Congress, corporate boardrooms, the cities of America's streets, and inevitably fundamentally change our culture, which then affects our political system.
And now you see the White House not even trying to hide the fact that they want Marxist-style equity.
You saw Kamala Harris post that video on her Twitter, what was that, a day before election day, explaining the difference between equality and equity, saying that that's what they're advocating for.
That's what they want.
And just as a side note, if you ever see a word in front of justice, racial justice, environmental justice, economic justice, it's probably not actual justice.
That's exactly right.
And justice should be blind.
It should be deliberate and it should be fair.
It should not be partial based on some sort of political agenda that you might have.
And so the challenge will now be for those of us that actually believe in market-based solutions and entrepreneurship to prevent this Marxist takeover as the ruling class billionaires are richer and more powerful than ever before.
It's going to be tough.
Quite honestly, these lockdowns have made the next Marxist revolution almost inevitable.
The only response we have to that, the only response we have to that is not to say, well, we just need to keep the status quo of capitalism in place.
People are throwing that away and they're throwing it away quickly.
Instead, it's family formation, it's rewarding good choices, and it's defending the country at all costs.
We want to take your questions, but first, I want to get into this point here.
Do you remember, and the DHS has sent out a bulletin warning Americans about violence by agreements fueled domestic extremists.
And if anyone is planning violence or if anyone is entertaining violence or is aware of violence, cut it out and knock it out right now.
Zero tolerance that whatsoever.
We have been consistent on that through and through.
The left is now saying that we need a new police state in response to these threats, which is interesting because the left hated any sort of government agents when it came to immigration enforcement, when it came to stopping BLM Incorporated in the streets.
And I think it's very clear that the left does not hate the idea of government troops in the streets.
They just don't like it when they can't control them.
We spent every day virtually of the 2020 calendar year being told all cops are racist pigs and that consolidated government control to keep peace is evil.
It's bad.
We have to do everything we can to get rid of police.
Let's send social workers to handle this stuff.
Yet all of a sudden, that narrative has dramatically changed.
Yeah, so why didn't Joe Biden send 25,000 social workers to stop domestic terrorism at his inauguration?
It's a great question, Charlie.
Why didn't Joe Biden send 25,000 people to go persuade them?
Well, because when you have a threat, you go send people with a bigger gun.
Like, I support that.
That's actually what we believe in because we're consistent.
But instead, the left only uses that as a way to try and justify now them being in control permanently.
Let's go to Cut 47 of Senator Kennedy warning against a police state.
And he's right.
Cut 47.
We brought in National Guard troops to ensure that President Biden had a safe inauguration.
He did.
Inauguration is over.
But if you look around Capitol Hill, parts of it look like a scene from Mad Max.
I mean, there's razor wire, there's fences, there's barricades, there are Humvees, they're automatic weapons.
At one point, they had tanks.
A cynical person might surmise that the Democratic leadership with the news media is trying to send a message to the American people.
And that message might be, the Republicans couldn't keep you safe, but we, the Democrats, can.
That is so well put.
Senator Kennedy from Louisiana, I was just processing that.
There was a lot of wisdom there.
And he said, basically, Washington, D.C. has become a pseudo-war zone.
We're in charge.
Don't you understand?
The Democrats are in charge.
That we are the ones that are calling the shots.
We'll keep you safe, as long as you don't disagree with us.
If you do, well, look at this barbed wire.
Look at these tanks.
Look at the guns.
You understand that we as human beings are very simple in how we process force.
When you see 25,000 people masked with automatic weapons or semi-automatic rifle weapons, whatever you want to call it, I'm not sure what they were armed with, but I'm sure they had semi-automatic weapons.
Tanks lining the streets.
What kind of message does that send?

I like that.
