Hey everybody, it's Monday, so I'm taking your questions that you've emailed us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
If you want to win a signed copy of the MAGA Doctrine, just subscribe to the Charlie Kirk Show podcast, screenshot your subscription, email it to us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
That's freedom at charliekirk.com.
If you want to support us, go to charliekirk.com slash support.
Your support makes our work possible.
Two podcasts a day, one on the weekends.
Thanks to you guys, CharlieKirk.com slash support.
It's Monday.
I'm taking your questions.
Buckle up.
Here we go.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
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.
If you're a college basketball fan, the NCAA tournament, March Madness is your favorite time of year.
Game-winning buzzer beater shots, Cinderella programs knocking out dynasty programs.
March Madness is known for drama, and I love every minute of it.
In recent years, one of the little-known inspiring March Madness stories was the rise of UConn's basketball program under Hall of Fame coach Jim Calhoun.
Born to Lead is the newest film on Salem Now, showcasing Jim Calhoun's and University of Connecticut's story.
From losing his father at a young age, instantaneously becoming the man of his family as a teenager, to his rise to the coaching ranks and eventually leading UConn to three national championships, Born to Lead features interviews from Mike Shyzzewski, Jim Bayheim, former UConn and NBA superstars Rick Hamilton and Ray Allen.
Get ready for March Madness by watching Born to Lead, available now at salemnow.com.
That's born to lead at salemnow.com and use the promo code Kirk for additional savings.
The first question that we have here, and it just seems as if there's hundreds of these, I have been mentioning that we are about to go on tour.
We are going on the Turning Point USA Gen Free tour on college campuses across the country.
And a lot of people say, Charlie, how can I see you live and in person?
Well, the best way to do that is go to tpusa.com slash gen free.
I love live events.
I love being on the ground, discussing ideas, getting the backlash, seeing the opposition, and maybe finding some form of clarity, not necessarily agreement.
This is something that Dennis Prager talks about quite often, that I prefer clarity over agreement.
And that is what we try to do on these college campuses.
So if anyone is interested and for anyone that supports us at charliekirk.com slash support and you want to come to one of our events, I will make sure you get in and get VIP seating.
Just email us.
You know how to email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
But we are going to Oklahoma.
We are going to Missouri.
We are going to Kentucky.
We are going to Nashville.
We are going to Vegas.
We are going to San Jose.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
Turning Point USA is back on campus, tpusa.com slash gen free.
And people are asking, they say, Charlie, what are you talking about at these events?
I'm really going to go after critical race theory.
At least that's what I'm going to do in the first event.
We'll see what happens in the second and the third.
But if I kind of take a overview of what I believe to be the most widespread and destructive ideas in our universities and in our high schools, the lack of understanding of what critical race theory actually is is truly an existential threat to our country.
So I'm going to be going after that.
I'm going to be talking about why America is the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world.
We're going to go after the 1619 project.
We're going to have all sorts of fun, and you'll also be able to find it live streamed on our YouTube.
These campus tours have been seen hundreds of millions of times.
If you count the clips, you count the podcasting, you count the live streams over the last couple of years.
It's a very important, I would say, cultural contribution to our country.
So check it out, tpusa.com/slash genfree.
Samantha, hey, Charlie, I will be able to vote for the first time in the next presidential election.
Do you think there will be just as much or more voter fraud in 2024 election?
Will my vote actually count, Samantha?
It all depends on Republican legislators.
It depends on whether Brian Kemp, Doug Ducey, and the Republican legislators in Arizona and Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin decide to reform their elections.
We've talked about this quite a lot, how Florida had broken elections before Ron DeSantis came into office.
In fact, Ron DeSantis, when he was running up against Andrew Gillum, and thank goodness Andrew Gillum never became governor of Florida, Miami-Dade County, Broward County were taking weeks to report their results.
In fact, there were videos that were being tweeted by Senator Marco Rubio showing ballots being delivered in the middle of the night to Broward County.
Sound familiar?
Governor Ron DeSantis won and completely and totally reformed the election system.
Now, it really frustrated and irritated Democrats in the state of Florida.
He was called the R-word, which actually segues to a thesis that I have that I want to share with you.
He was called the R-word, and he didn't care.
You might say, what's the R-word?
Racist.
That one word, this is the thesis, is paralyzing to Republicans.
The fear of being called a racist has taken over our entire legislative process and priorities and media communications.
I really believe that most suburbanites vote Democrat because they fear more than anything else to be called a racist.
In fact, in the Barry Weiss article that we mentioned in a previous episode of the podcast, I encourage all of you guys to check it out.
She has a quote in there that says, being called a racist is worse than being called a murderer.
So Ron DeSantis did not care that they were going to call him a racist.
He figured that was going to happen anyway.
And he put forth serious voting reform measures in Florida.
He put forth serious, tangible measures that reformed the way that elections are done in the state of Florida.
What's the result?
Donald Trump won by 400,000 votes.
Republicans flipped three congressional seats.
Republicans control the state House, the state Senate, and the governor's mansion, the Attorney General, and the Secretary of State.
Democrats are now basically wondering, how did Florida quickly become Alabama?
Well, with safe and secure elections, strong, courageous conservative leadership, and then you contrast that with the very weak Brian Kemp.
What was Brian Kemp doing a year ago?
One year ago, in March of 2020, as we were locking down for the Chinese coronavirus, Brian Kemp was signing a consent decree with Stacey Abrams.
He was signing a settlement to a civil lawsuit that Stacey Abrams was bringing with high-priced lawyers, trying to settle the legal complaint saying that in Georgia, we will have relaxed signature verification standards.
Now, Brian Kemp very well could have warned the American population about this.
Brian Kemp could have said, hey, we're going to have some issues if all of a sudden more people start voting by mail.
But Brian Kemp, being very weak, Brian Kemp not being a very smart person and probably being very corrupt, said nothing.
In fact, he challenged people like President Trump, like myself, like this program, like our team, that would say, hey, does Georgia have its act together for mail-in balloting?
He said, of course we do.
How dare you question my friend Brad Rothensberger's election program.
And so in 2016, there were 246,000 mail-in ballots.
You say, wow, that's a lot.
In 2020, there were well over 1.2 million mail-in ballots submitted.
So you have a million ballot increase with looser signature verification standards, more relaxed signature verification standards.
And it was all because of Brian Kemp.
And Brian Kemp could have fixed the problem.
He could have called the special session of the legislature in the summer of 2020.
He could have admitted that he made a problem, and we would have helped him fix it.
Instead, Brian Kemp thought that hope was a strategy.
He hoped everything was going to be okay.
And because he's very weak and courageous people take responsibility for their actions and then they try to put forward solutions to fix those problems, we lost the state of Georgia, and that's why we have Raphael Warnock and John Ossif.
So now Georgia has a chance to fix the elections.
The Georgia State Senate is passing a bill that is very promising.
It doesn't go far enough, but it's promising.
And CNN and the Democrats are doing everything they possibly can to misrepresent this bill, saying that it's an attack on black people.
Of course, the R-word.
How dare you require voter ID?
Don't you know that black people are not able to get voter ID?
Which, by the way, is an unbelievable comment, incredibly racist to say something like that, that we think so lowly of black people that they are unable to get a voter ID.
And so to answer your question, Samantha, and congratulations, you win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
Do you think there will be just as much or more voter fraud in 2024 election?
It is solely on the Republican legislator in Arizona and Georgia to start, then Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
And so far, I have not seen courage.
I've seen excuses from the people that are in power.
Georgia is moving in the right direction.
Arizona and Maricopa County are showing a little bit of signs of promise, but we need massive structural reforms.
And HR1, which is legitimately an existential threat to our country, HR1 would do the opposite.
House Resolution 1 would make universal vote by mail, register every person in the prisons, and on the Motor Vehicle Bureau site, which would include illegal aliens.
Samantha, thank you so much for your question.
And I hope to meet you very soon.
Email us your questions, everybodyfreedom at charliekirk.com.

Audience.
Hey, Charlie, I love your podcast, and I listen every day.
Thank you.
I know you've already talked about HR5, but I'm very concerned about its implications for schools.
My son is entering the third grade next year.
I plan on homeschooling him in the future.
Not just yet, but I've read through his curricula this year, and it's okay.
However, I'm not sure when they'll be introducing next year, but I'll be on top of it.
Good for you, Melissa.
When do you think critical race theory and transgender ideology will be coming to the Red States?
I'm in Tennessee.
This is one of my major concerns right now.
Thanks, Charlie.
Well, Melissa, you went assigned a copy of the MAGA doctrine, and you are exactly the type of parent that has been missing from the landscape the last couple decades.
To answer your question, it's already in Tennessee.
It's at University of Tennessee, it's at many other places, and I'm sure it's in some local curriculum, but it's not as widespread as other places.
So keep your eyes peeled.
Critical race theory is spreading like a virus, and it is as big a threat, if not a bigger threat, to our republic as the Chinese coronavirus.
Now, critical race theory is rooted in this idea that no science, no dialogue, no individuals.
Western civilization is a racist, fallow, logo-centric, white supremacist, colonialist, misogynistic, homophobic experiment.
This used to be a fringe theory in the academy.
This used to be something that was on the outskirts of the intelligentsia.
Now it is mainstream.
It is rooted in a Marxist principle of the oppressed versus the oppressor.
Now, the Marxists believe this, that a society that's perpetually in conflict is very unhappy, but it's easier to control.
They believe in conflict theory, which is rooted in critical theory, as a way to try and assume power.
Critical theory is, in essence, not about healing wounds or uniting people.
It's intentionally trying to pit people against each other.
Now, a question I get a lot is, Charlie, how could anyone be this sinister?
How could anyone be this dark?
And when people ask this question, I chuckle.
I say, you should spend a weekend reading a little bit about 20th century history.
Read about how dark human beings actually can become.
And this goes back to the real debate that's happening in this country.
Do you believe human beings are basically good?
Of course, human beings are basically bad.
Goodness, the creation of good people, is the exception, not the norm.
And so when you're in this constant state of conflict, people then are willing to sacrifice their rights and their freedoms.
If you're in a state of an emergency, you're constantly going from one crisis to the other, then this idea of freedom of speech, God-granted rights, and the social contract around the citizen being on top of the hierarchy of who's in charge, not the government, disappears.
And we've saw this in the last year in the Chinese coronavirus.
You could teach a class, probably at a respectable school like Hillsdale, on how the human beings act in a time of crisis.
And this last year is a perfect example.
This last year, hundreds of millions of people in America decided that individual liberty, human freedom, was not nearly as important as obeying the rulers, despite them being wrong about basically everything.
And I talked about this in one of the previous episodes, and I encourage you guys to check it out.
I posted it on my podcast feed a few days ago, which is the five lessons I learned in the year of the 15 days to slow the spread.
And one of the lessons that human beings do not want to be free.
You must teach the value of freedom, or else human beings simply will not want to be free.
They will want to be taken care of.
America being founded on freedom, not on slavery, makes us unique, makes us different, different than the French and different than the Spanish and different than the Italians.
Most countries are founded or built around the idea of a massive social welfare state taking care of other people.
This country being founded on liberty and freedom makes us unique.
So when do I think critical race theory and transgender ideology will be coming to Red States?
I think it's already there.
Thankfully, it's not in your local school.
Every parent needs to be involved putting forward freedom of information requests, knowing your school board presidents and school board members, contacting them, and being on top of this.
It truly is an existential threat to our country.
And it's starting now to impact many different institutions, the military, corporations, and all of civil society.
Thank you, Melissa, and I want to commend you for your courage, for what you're doing.
Next question, next email, I should say.
Thank you, Charlie, for calling out these coward upper-class parents that care about their own legacy more than their children themselves.
It was so refreshing to hear your latest podcast about the Secret Parent Club.
I am disgusted by these people because they helped create this monster and had, as you say, no wisdom to help understand that they are on the sinking ship.
When the ship sinks, the first class sink along the cooks and the janitors.
What a great imagery.
I'm 31, and I feel blessed that I never went to college and was the first in my family to reject it.
Good for you.
I come from a family of upper to middle class teachers.
I was essentially kicked out of the family for my views.
I went into the Marine Corps instead in 2010 and found my Christianity in a chapel on a base in San Diego.
Served as an infantry soldier, and I loved the brothers I met at home and abroad.
I came back home and had a child in 2016 and put myself through fire science and EMS schooling and became a firefighter and am currently serving with my department and I got a side job as a supervisor at a warehouse loading yard.
Only then did my family want a part of my life for my daughter.
I use everything you teach on your podcast because my leftist family and have recently turned my mom to common sense of the conservative movement.
How awesome is that?
I also started a conservative podcast show and I've grown it locally where I live.
Phenomenal.
Everyone should get into content creation if you can.
Based off your model, thank you, Charlie, for what you have created and your courage.
You would have made a great soldier.
You are one in my eyes for all the evil you have to take head on.
I hope you read this.
Thanks, Logan.
Well, Logan, God bless you.
Thank you for that email.
I hope to meet you someday.
I think it says you're in San Diego.
I don't know if you still live there.
I'm speaking this Sunday, Greg Denham's Church, Rise, San Marcos.
But Logan, God bless you.
And the deeper point that Logan is making here was a compliment on my podcast I did on the Barry Weiss City Journal article.
And someone recently asked me, they said, Charlie, how do people become courageous?
And I truckle when people ask that question.
I say, well, now we're really talking about something worthwhile.
Say, now we're getting into philosophy.
Now we're getting into civilization preserving questions about time.
And of course, the piece, the Barry Weiss article that has gone very extremely viral, I encourage you to check it out.
The podcast I did on it is called Reparations, Aztec Chants, and the Miseducation of America's Elite.
It's one of my favorite episodes that we have done in the history of our program.
It's very important.
I encourage you to email it to your friends.
And basically, the essence of the piece, again, is a bunch of rich parents are meeting privately because their kids are being indoctrinated.
They know their kids are being indoctrinated, but they're not doing anything about it because they're afraid of the potential backlash against them.
That is the essence of the piece.
And so, to go to the question I was asked that relates to this is: why is there such a crisis of courage?
So, let me tell you the good news, then I'll tell you the bad news.
The good news is that this is nothing new.
Every major philosopher, from Aristotle to Plato, to Aquinas to Augustine, to even C.S. Lewis to G.K. Chesterton, have wrestled with the idea of why are certain people courageous and why are certain people not.
George S. Patton famously said that moral courage is the most necessary and most absent characteristic in men.
Courage is something that we take for granted.
So, how do I define courage?
The willingness to confront agony, pain, injustice, or danger.
Philosophers have even said that without courage, the other virtues are basically irrelevant, of which it is the virtue that allows the other virtues to be made possible.
A Greek philosopher famously said: The secret to happiness is freedom, and the secret to freedom is courage.
So, the bad news, as I was mentioning, the good news is that you're not the first one to wrestle with this question.
The bad news is that if history is any guide, most people will not be courageous, and we're going to get steamrolled.
What made America different in the 20th century, what made America different in the 1800s, which is a history we do not teach our children, is that we did have courageous leaders that stood up for the good.
This country was founded on courage, George Washington and his Continental Army.
We abolished slavery through courage, Abraham Lincoln and the Union Army.
We defeated the National Socialist Workers' Party with courage, George S. Patton, Dwight D. Eisenhower, alongside the guardian of Western civilization, Winston Churchill.
America has been a story, has been a journey.
America is our home.
America is a place where the ideas of being a hero in courage are rewarded and, in fact, taught.
We've grown away from this in recent years.
Instead, because our country lacks wisdom, we, by definition, lack courage.
Plato famously said, courage is knowing what not to fear.
Well, how do you know what not to fear?
Wisdom, according to his student Aristotle, was being able to know the things that never change, the things that are eternal.
That is why the book of Proverbs speaks to you just as much now as it would have when it was written, because human nature does not change.
Wisdom is the knowledge of all things, eternal.
There's practical knowledge and eternal knowledge.
J.R.R. Tolkien famously said that courage is found in unlikely places.
Well, I'm certainly looking for it.
I could tell you that much.
Winston Churchill famously said: courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.
Winston Churchill also said, it's funny how these guys that were the most courageous wrote about courage so much.
Courage is rightly esteemed the first of the human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees all the others.
And if I were to say what we are lacking the most in America, it is not even that we are lacking in truth.
I think we are lacking in truth.
It's not even that we're lacking in clarity.
I think we're missing that.
But I do think that there are enough people that are putting forward truth, putting forward clear thinking ideas.
The biggest problem is that there is a crisis and the courage to do something about it.
And the Barry Weiss article is a perfect example of that.
The hope and the optimism in that Barry Weiss article, The Miseducation of American Elites, where you had these parents meeting like the French underground in their Adirondack chairs eating their skinny pop popcorn, all whispering and agreeing that their children are being indoctrinated, is at least they think there's something wrong with what their children are being taught.
That's the positive out of the entire story.
At least the Barry Weiss article didn't say that the parents are sitting in Adirondack chairs talking about how wonderful Harvard Westlake is.
That's the positive of the piece.
But the apparent narrative is, why won't they do something about it?
A question that many people in my high school, including myself, wrestled with, is as we studied history, we studied Mao's Red Guard, we studied Stalin's Red Army, Benito Mussolini, a common question is, why didn't anyone do anything?
It's the most asked question.
And for media matters listening to this, I am not necessarily making a moral equivalency argument of critical race theory and gulags.
What I am saying is that you can get to gulags with ideas like critical race theory, and that is not an exaggeration.
Just ask Joseph Bondarenko, who wrote the amazing book, KGB's Most Wanted.
And if you do not fight early, if you don't fight definitively with courage and clarity, they will only grow in number.
And so the best way I can describe the crisis of courage is you must be willing to sacrifice something.
If you are unwilling to sacrifice something and you think that you can have the same lifestyle that you currently have, then you do not have courage.
Courage is a virtue based in the idea that you will be able to be not necessarily successful, but stable and in the pursuit of the good regardless of what you might lose.
And yes, you might lose your job.
You might lose your friends.
Now, this is a very important distinction.
Being courageous and being reckless are two different things.
So how do you know the difference?
For example, I don't think it's courageous in my position to walk on an airplane in absolute defiance, not wearing a mask.
You might say, Charlie, where's your courage?
Well, that would be reckless and self-defeating.
So all of a sudden, I would take off the table my ability to travel and talk to hundreds of thousands of people over the next couple years.
I know the cost of that.
Instead, I will communicate and pick the points of where I believe a step of courage would be most necessary.
And so picking the correct moments to express your values and your ideas is absolutely important.
It's not just critical, it's imperative.
Mark Twain famously said, courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.
Aristotle said, courage is the first of the human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others.
I mentioned that earlier.
It is Aristotle.
Thank you, production team.
So how does one find courage?
It's very easy, actually.
You must make a decision to be courageous.
You make the decision that I will be courageous and I will make decisions in the pursuit of the good regardless of the consequences.
And that's what you need.
Hi, Charlie.
My student, my son, actually, started a Turning Point Club at Mountain View High School in the fall of 2020.
These boys had the entire English department targeting their every move.
20 teachers.
They got the club removed, but we fought back and this club is reinstated.
Give it up for Jen, everybody.
It is organizations like Turning Point that will save this generation.
My son and his friends who started the club are strong advocates of conservative values, and it is tools they get from your organization that will strengthen them as they continue their educational journey.
They are strong believers in this movement.
Charlie, what you are doing is huge.
Parents need to understand and help their children find this enlightenment.
My nonprofit organization, Parents Choice and Vote Inc., will be advocating for organizations such as Turning Point to bring light to these benefits.
I know you have been frustrated with parents, and rightly so.
The solution is involving parents.
You need to continue doing what you're doing, but I think if you were to include a sub-organization section dedicated to educating parents on the objectives of Turning Point Organization growth to be exponential, this is what we need.
And this is what Jen is doing, and she's from Boise, so we'll be reaching out.
First of all, Jen, thank you for your kind words about Turning Point USA.
I really want to get parents activated, and I'm open to these ideas.
I have not seen parents' willingness to engage in this.
It's students that are the ones that are pushing it.
There are some phenomenal parents, and I want to make sure I mention this.
There are baby boomers and parents that have impacted my life and have directly touched Turning Point USA in a positive way and changed the trajectory of our organization and of the country.
But my call to action is, come on, parents, we're losing our country.
Let's get into this.
And so I appreciate that, Jen, very much, and I'd love to send you a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
And thank you for getting your child involved with Turning Point USA.
I was intimately aware of that controversy, and I'm very pleased it ended the way it did, which is with the reinstatement of the Turning Point USA group at Mountain View.
Todd and Sharon say, love your show, Charlie.
Listen every day.
Thank you.
Why don't these border states load up the buses with these illegals and ship them right to Joe Biden's door?
Let them flood D.C. That'll end this really quick.
Well, the essence of your question, Todd and Sharon, is funny, but it's actually full of wisdom.
So it's great.
So thank you for that.
I'll send you a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
The Democrats never have to live under the policies that they put on the rest of the people.
They want to confiscate weapons, yet they are protected by armed guards.
They think we should get rid of fossil fuels.
They fly around in private jets.
They keep the schools closed while they put their kids in open private schools.
They want open borders, yet they live in gated communities, and they never actually have to suffer the consequences of illegals border jumping into our country.
They don't.
Instead, they are able to be immune.
They're able to be protected from almost all of the public policy decisions that they make.
That's what makes that Barry Weiss article so phenomenal is that finally the ruling class, the liberals, are actually feeling the very same pressure that they've put on the rest of the country.
So, Todd and Sharon, unfortunately, states do not have the rights to deport illegals across states, but the idea is well taken, and thank you for listening very much.
I deeply appreciate it.
Hi, Charlie.
This is Lisa.
If Americans were racist, then how did Obama win two presidential terms?
And what about reparations for all the black, white, and other ethnicity?
For example, French women, men and children who fought and died in slavery.
Thanks so much, Lisa.
Congratulations.
MAGA doctrine for you.
You're exactly right.
The reparations argument is focused solely on one racial group.
What about all the other racial groups that have suffered intergenerationally?
What made America different is it was never founded on the victimhood or the oppressor Olympics.
It's on opportunity, it's on liberty, it's on making good choices, moving up the socioeconomic ladder, not trying to get in line and demand your peace.
The American promise, and something we're going to build out more in the next couple weeks, I think that's the right way to frame it.
The American promise is currently being broken.
The promise of America is that if I work hard and play by the rules, I have a family, I will be able to live an above-average life, and my kids will be able to live a better life than I will.
And that American promise is currently in jeopardy and being broken.
And this entire reparations argument is directly tied to that.
Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
