Hey, everybody.
Today on the Charlie Kirk Show, we go into great detail of how did we get here?
What was the chain of events?
I read a Twitter feed that I think is one of the wisest and best descriptions of what is happening right now in America.
Also, Pablo Picasso, otherwise known as Hunter Biden, is selling art for $500,000 a pop and so much more.

Hunter Biden and cameras in the classroom.
Buckle up, everybody.
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.
Do you ever read the fine print that appears when you start browsing in incognito mode?
It says that your activity might still be visible to your employer, your school, or your internet service provider.
How can they even call it incognito?
To really stop these people from seeing the sites you visit, you need to do what I do and use ExpressVPN.
Think about all the times you've used the Wi-Fi at a coffee shop, a hotel, or even at your parents' home.
Without ExpressVPN, every single site you visit could be logged by the admin of that network.
And that's still true when you're in incognito mode.
What's more is your home internet provider, I'm talking about Comcast, ATT, or whatever, can also see and record your browsing data.
ExpressVPN is an application.
It's an app that encrypts all of your network data and reroutes it through a network of secure servers so that your private online activity says just that, private.
ExpressVPN works on all of your devices and it's super easy to use.
So stop letting strangers invade your online privacy.

I was on Tucker Carlson on Wednesday evening.
Producer Andrew covered that and we were talking about this idea of mandatory vaccines on college campuses.
And earlier in the week, Tucker Carlson called for something that is so obvious and has been So needed for years.
I mentioned this.
This is not my idea.
It's not a new idea.
I mentioned this a couple years ago, which is why don't we have cameras in classrooms?
Why is it that parents are forced to pay tens of thousands of dollars, sometimes even more than that, in property taxes to fund government schools?
And yet, teachers have complete and total secrecy in what they teach and how they teach their children.
We were just having a breakfast here right before the show, and a very good point was made that one of the best takeaways from the lockdowns was the fact that when some of these students would open up their laptops to go to class in the last year, parents were doing some work maybe in the other room, and they started to hear the garbage that these teachers were teaching their children.
This is one of the main reasons why we've seen this school board revolution happen all across the country where parents are saying, I might not know exactly what to say or how to say it, but I'm going to show up and let my presence be known.
Now, this is a very obvious point that if parents are employing the teachers, if parents, the taxpayers, are paying for all the infrastructure and all the overhead of a school district, they have a moral right as the funder of the enterprise to know what exactly is happening in the classroom.
Even beyond that, that's their child.
It is not the state's child.
It is not the teacher union's child.
It's their child.
And so Tucker Carlson brought this point up on his show a couple of days ago.
I want to play that tape, but then it got me thinking on how we live in a surveillance state for a couple very select parts of our society, things that the left and the Democrats and the collectivists want, but the things that actually need oversight, we're not allowed to have cameras.
Let's just play a little tape from Tucker Carlson, who makes the argument perfectly.
Play Cut 21.
Until we finally get cameras in the classroom as we put them on the chests of police officers, until we finally get a civilian review board in every town in America to oversee the people teaching your children, forming their minds.
And let's hope we get both of those very soon.
But until we do, we can't know exactly how widespread this is.
I think it was Matt Walsh who came on Tucker's program the day after, and he made a great point where he said that if you drop your dog off at a dog sitting service, most owners demand access to the live feed so they can see how their dog is being treated all day long.
Are you feeding my dog correctly?
Are you leaving them out in the sun too long?
That's considered non-controversial.
Almost every single doggy daycare service in the country now offers 24-7 live feed type service so you can see whether or not your dog is being treated perfectly or correctly.
But when you drop your child off at school, which is obviously more important than your pet, you're not allowed to know anything that happens in the classroom.
Ironically, the left is not against cameras, though.
The left has now succeeded, and I think this is generally a good thing, actually, in putting body cameras on every single police officer across the country.
I think more transparency with police officers is perfectly fine.
In fact, I think the body cameras on police officers actually help police officers with some of these anti-police movements that have happened in the last year.
They seem perfectly fine with using surveillance to illegally wiretap and monitor Tucker Carlson's emails and then leak those emails to journalists.
You see, the left, they want a surveillance state unless it oversees or it checks and balances things that are fundamental to our republic.
For example, they don't want cameras for classrooms or for teachers.
They do not want cameras on the southern border, which, by the way, if we made a decision, if our leaders actually took the southern border seriously, we could deploy hundreds of drones on the southern border, non-armed drones, and we would know every single person passing through the southern border.
We would know where they're from.
We'd be able to get profiles of them.
That technology exists.
The thing that does not exist is the will of the leaders to actually deploy that sort of technology.
How about cameras in vote counting rooms?
Why don't we have cameras overseeing every single person that counts every vote in Michigan, in Pennsylvania, not some sort of very fuzzy webcam that might be in the corner?
You see, philosophically, the left is not against oversight.
They only want oversight of things they're trying to destroy.
You might have saw this clip.
Maybe you didn't, because maybe you're living a happy and life, so you missed this.
There's this gay choir in San Francisco.
Wait till you hear this clip.
This is why we need oversight of what's happening with your children.
They brag, and I want to make sure I get this correctly.
They come out and they say, and they deleted it, of course, right after, quote, you think that will corrupt your kids?
Funny, just this once, you're correct.
We'll convert your children bit by bit, quietly and suddenly, you'll barely notice it.
This is a San Francisco gay men's chorus.
Of course, they delete the video soon after, but the internet lives forever.
This is why we need cameras in our classrooms.
Play Cut 43.
You think that we'll corrupt your kids if our agenda goes unchecked?
Funny, just this once, you're correct.
We'll convert your children.
Happens bit by bit, quietly and subtly, and you will barely notice it.
We'll corrupt your children bit by bit, and you will barely notice it.
The gay men's chorus in San Francisco.
So, parents are all of a sudden saying, Enough.
If I'm going to be paying taxes in a local school district, I deserve oversight and I deserve the ability to check and balance what is happening in the schools in my local area.
The teacher unions are saying that this is Orwellian, that this is an overreach and will intimidate teachers.
Well, if these teachers are so gifted, if these teachers are so amazing at instructing your children, wouldn't they want the cameras?
Wouldn't they want to show the world how incredible they are at being able to teach science or math?
These teachers and the teacher unions have it completely backwards.
Of course, they do, intentionally.
They only are able to have a job because of the taxes that are levied and the people that go to work every single day and put money into the government school system.
For everyone listening right now, you're saying, Charlie, what can I do?
What can I push for?
Maybe you're listening right now in Fargo, North Dakota.
I'll be there next Wednesday, by the way.
Maybe you're listening right now on WABC in New York City or in Riverside, California, or in Phoenix, Arizona, or Chicago, Illinois.
Push for this specifically, because there is no good counter argument on the other side.
Every classroom of every teacher in the country should have a non-stop camera in it of what is being taught.
How is it being taught?
Is a teacher intimidating the students?
Isn't transparency the best disinfectant?
Doesn't the Washington Post say that democracy dies in darkness?
Well, let's say no more darkness and let's bring light to the classrooms.
Let's make sure all these teachers are more popular than ever because these teachers are so confident what they're teaching is correct.
Then, why don't they put on a show for all the parents in the local area?
You want to know something specifically to push for in your local communities?
Push for cameras in your classroom.
You have a moral and taxpayer right to demand it, and there is no good counter argument against it.
In our fast-paced world, it's time to make reading a priority.
At least it used to be.
A new app called Thinker, you guys have heard me talk about it, thinker.org/Charlie, T-H-I-N-K-R, has solved that problem by summarizing the key ideas from new and noteworthy fiction, giving you access to an entire library of great books in bite-sized form.
Reader listened to hundreds of titles in a matter of minutes, including old classics like Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People.
If you want to challenge your preconceptions, expand your horizons of what?
Become a better thinker.

That's T-H-I-N-K-R.org/slash Charlie to start an extended free trial and put your mind in motion.
So, the Democrats were up against a little bit of a tough situation here, or the Biden family.
Hunter Biden's Expensive Piece 00:06:07
They knew it'd be a bad look if people directly gave Hunter Biden money because, of course, he's a conduit for the big man.
Remember, we learned that with Tony Bob Yelensky, who got no coverage at all whatsoever, and Hunter Biden's laptop, which, by the way, according to new reports, we're waiting to verify this.
I believe Chuck Grassley is now in possession of Hunter Biden's laptop.
I'm a big Senator Grassley fan.
I hope he finds a tech guy to actually help him with it.
So, I'm not sure if Chuck Grassley is going to know what to do with it.
I'm kidding, of course.
Chuck Grassley is one of the greatest Americans out there.
Not exactly, I'd put him in the tech savvy category, but I'm glad that Chuck Grassley has the laptop.
But Hunter Biden is a very interesting person.
I'm just going to say this just flat out.
By interesting, you guys know exactly what I mean.
He's not going to jail.
Okay, people say, What's Hunter Biden to get indicted?
Not going to happen.
Okay, we have a system in America that if you are a Republican or a Trump supporter, they will indict you and they will investigate your family and they'll try to destroy your life.
If you're a Democrat, you're able to compete at the highest levels of art.
So, I had a dinner last night with some of my family, and we were talking about art, which is not exactly a passion topic of mine.
I guess it's becoming more so.
I like objectively good art.
I don't think that people are like, Well, I like this, you know, you know what I like.
I like the signed yearnow at the modern art museum.
Like, yeah, you're dumb.
Like, that's that's not art.
Okay, that's defecation.
Anyway, this whole idea of modern art just drives me absolutely up a wall.
I'm not against expressionist art and romantic art, but this idea of like, oh, yeah, this is like this squiggle line is art.
Yeah, okay, sure.
So, this, I was talking to my family last night, and I said, Oh, yeah, well, what do you think about Hunter Biden with all the art deals he's been doing?
They said, What do you mean?
Of course, this is the communication channels that we exist in, which is that if you don't listen to the Charlie Kirk show or you don't listen to Tucker, or you're not listening to certain podcasts, you don't hear about any of this, right?
It's almost none of this gets into the New York Times or the NPR.
NPR or CNN or whatever.
I want you to imagine this story breaking.
Donald Trump Jr. lists paintings for up to $500,000 a piece.
Do you think of Donald Trump Jr.?
How about Ivanka?
Do you think if Ivanka Trump was painting and selling it for $500,000 a piece, that it would get the media to be interested a little bit?
Well, so that's what's happening with Hunter Biden.
Hunter Biden has decided to compete with the legends of Pablo Picasso and with Monet and with Rembrandt.
In fact, I think Hunter Biden might actually be Rembrandt.
If you look at these paintings, they're so amazing, they're so incredible that who wouldn't pay half a million dollars for these things?
That is really special.
$500,000 for that.
Let's play Cut 74 so you can all see it for yourself.
Play Cut74.
These paintings by President Biden's son, Hunter, are sparking ethics concerns for the White House.
Hunter's artwork is set to be displayed and sold this fall at private and invite-only showings in Los Angeles in New York City.
Price between $75,000 to half a million dollars per piece.
$75,000 to half a million dollars per piece.
And you look at these things.
The Daily Mail, of course, is the only people that have decided to cover this.
Hunter Biden was probably on some form of psychedelics, or he's just not a very good artist, which is probably true because this is what I would do if I tried to paint.
Just kind of random colors that nothing makes any sense.
But of course, the people that are buying the art from Hunter Biden, I'm sure they're going for the art, right?
So this is some sort of brilliant money laundering scheme.
You can't give Hunter Biden money directly.
You can't hire him anymore.
Oh, why doesn't he just create a product?
How about something that is completely and totally subjective?
Art.
You just, you want to get access to Joe Biden?
Go buy Hunter Biden's piece for half a million dollars.
Now, imagine if you're a Chinese businessman.
If you're a Chinese businessman and you all of a sudden want to get access to the Biden family, sure, go buy Hunter Biden's.
I can't tell if this is upside down or not.
That's how you know, by the way, a painting is awful if you can't tell if it's upside down or not.
Like, does it go to the left or does it go to the right?
You know, you're dealing in complete and total frenetic schizophrenia when it comes to that kind of art.
We all know what's really happening here.
So I just want to re-emphasize this.
Hunter Biden is making this art and selling it for upwards of $500,000 a piece.
And he will get away with it.
He'll get away with it because the state-owned press and the decline of journalism has no interest in covering it.

Trump Supporters Ignore Election Evidence 00:15:18
There's an amazing Twitter thread that I came across last evening.
Somebody sent it to me and it's so wise and it's worth going through the entire thing.
And it goes and it diagnoses exactly what we're living through right now.
And it's by this Twitter account, MartyrMade, M-A-R-T-Y-R-M-A-D-E.
I don't know who this is.
I'm sure Media Matter is going to find something wrong that this guy has done sometime in his history.
I don't care.
He's super smart or she's super smart.
And I'm going to talk about it.
It's an anonymous Twitter account, which, by the way, there's more wisdom in what I'm about to read than anything I've ever heard on NPR, CNN, or MSNBC.
Quote, I think I've had enough discussions with Trump supporters who believe the 2020 election was fraudulent to extract a general theory about their perspective.
It is also the perspective of most of the people at the Capitol on January the 6th and probably even Trump himself.
Most believe some are all the theories involving midnight ballots, voting machines, etc.
But when you talk to them and find out the specifics, they'll defend some of those positions for information they got from Hannity or Breitbart or whatever, but they're not particularly attached to them.
The real facts, the actual confirmed facts that shape their perspective are number one, the FBI, etc., spied on the 2016 Trump campaign using evidence manufactured by the Clinton campaign.
We know that all involved knew this was fake from day one.
These are Tea Party type people.
These are the type of people who give their kids a pocket constitution for their birthday and have founding fathers' memes in their bios.
The intel community spying on a presidential campaign using fake evidence is a big deal to them.
Everyone involved lied about their involvement for as long as they could.
We only learned that the DNC paid for the manufactured evidence because of a court order.
Comey denied it on television and lied about it.
The DNC paid for it.
And we have emails from a year earlier proving that he knew.
This is true with everyone, from the CIA Director Brennan and Adam Schiff, who were on TV saying that they'd clear evidence of collusion.
They'd seen clear evidence of collusion.
Remember Adam Schiff?
While admitting under oath behind closed doors that they hadn't.
All the way down the line.
In the end, we all knew that it was all fake.
At first, many Trump people were worried that there must be some Russian collusion because every media and intelligence agency, they wouldn't make it up for nothing.
Just as a sidebar, I know the people in my life kept saying that.
Well, they wouldn't just be making this up.
But then it became more clear that they had made it up.
People expected a reckoning and shed many illusions about their government when it didn't happen.
We know this is a fact.
Number one, the Steele dossier was the sole evidence used to justify spying on the Trump campaign.
Number two, the FBI knew that the Steele dossier was a DNC op.
Number three, Steele sources told the FBI the info was unserious.
And then finally, they did not inform the court illegally of any of this and kept spying on the Trump campaign.
Trump supporters know the collusion case front and back.
They went from worrying the collusion must be real to suspecting that it might be fake to realizing that it was a scam, then watched as every institution, our CIA, our intel agencies, the press, Congress, academia, colleges, all gaslit them for another year.
Even worse, collusion was used to scare people away from working in the Trump administration.
They knew their entire lives would be investigated.
Many quit because they knew being bankrupted by legal fees.
The Department of Justice, the press, and our government literally destroyed lives and actively subverted an elected president.
This is where people whose political identity was largely defined by naive belief, what they learned in civics class, began to see the outline of a regime that crossed all institutional boundaries because it had stepped out of the shadows to unite against an interloper.
Republican propaganda still has many of them thinking in terms of partisan binaries, but a lot of Trump supporters see that the regime is not partisan.
They know that the same institutions would have taken opposite sides if it was Tulsi Gabbard versus a Jeb Bush election.
It's hard to describe to people on the left who are used to thinking of government as a conspiracy, Watergate, Cointel Pro, weapons of mass destruction, et cetera, how shocking and disillusioning this was for people who encourage their sons to enlist in the army and hate people who don't stand for the anthem.
Trump supporters could have managed the shock if it only involved the government.
But the behavior of the corporate press is really what radicalized them.
They hate journalists more than they hate any politician or government official because they feel most betrayed by them.
The idea that the press is driven by ratings and sensationalism became quickly untenable.
If that were true, they'd be all over the Jeffrey Epstein story.
The corporate press is the propaganda arm of the regime they see in the outline.
Nothing anyone says will ever make them unsee that, period.
This is profoundly disorienting to most people.
Many of them don't know for certain whether ballots were faked in November 2020, but they know for absolute certain that the press, the FBI, would lie to them if it was.
They have every reason to believe that it's probably true.
They watched the press behave like animals for four years.
Tens of millions of people always see Kavanaugh as a gang rapist based on nothing because of CNN.
And CNN seems really proud of that.
They led a lynch mob against a high school kid, and they cheered on a summer of riots and murder and looting.
They also claim the media has a liberal bias.
Fine, whatever.
But they still thought the press would admit truth if they were cornered.
Now they don't.
It's a different thing to watch them invent stories out of whole cloth in order to destroy regular lives and spark mass violence and murder.
Time magazine told us that during the 2020 riots, there were weekly conference calls involving, among others, leaders of protests, local officials who refused to stop them, and the media who framed them for political effect.
In Ukraine, we call that a color revolution.
Throughout the summer, Democrat governors took advantage of the Chinese coronavirus to change voting procedures.
It wasn't just mail-ins.
They lowered the signature matching standards, et cetera.
After the collusion scam, the fake impeachment, Trump people expected shenanigans by now.
And then the fake impeachment came again.
We now know that Trump's request for Ukraine to cooperate with the Department of Justice regarding Biden's money activities in Ukraine was in support of an active investigation being pursued by the FBI and the Attorney General of Ukraine.
And so a completely legitimate request.
And then you get the Hunter Biden scandal.
Big tech ran a full-on censorship campaign against a major newspaper to protect a political candidate, period.
Everyone knows it, and all the tech companies now admit it was a mistake.
But you know, the election's over, so who cares?
Goes without saying, if the New York Times had come across Donald Trump Jr.'s laptop full of pictures of him smoking crack and engaging in groups of engaging in group sex and child, allegedly child sex propaganda, lots of lurid family drama, emails describing direct corruption and backed up by the CEO of a company they were using, the New York Times probably wouldn't have been banned by the tech companies.
Think back.
Stories about Trump being peed on by Russian prostitutes and blackmailed by Putin were promoted as factual evidence.
And the only evidence was a document paid for by his opposition and disavowed by its source.
The New York Post was banned for reporting on true information.
The reaction of Trump people to all this was not fair.
That's how they felt about Romney's Biden binders full of women in 2012.
But this is different.
Now they see correctly that every institution is captured by people who would use any means to exclude them from the political process.
And yet they showed up in record numbers to vote.
Trump got 13 million more votes than he did in 2016 and 10 million more than Clinton got.
As election night dragged on, they allowed themselves some hope.
For a couple hours, Trump supporters thought Trump was going to get four more years.
But when the four critical swing states and some of those others went dark at midnight, they knew it was happening again.
Over the ensuing weeks, they got shuffled around by grifters and media scam artists selling them conspiracy theories.
They latched onto one and then ever increasingly absurd theory, they tried to be a concrete name on something very real.
Media and tech did everything to make it worse.
Everything about the election was strange to change the procedures, unprecedented mail and voting, the delays, the changing of voting locations.
But rather than admit it and make everything transparent, they banned the discussion of it, even in direct messages on social media.
Everyone knows that just as Donald Trump Jr.'s laptop would have been the story of the century.
If everything about the election dispute was the same, except the parties were reversed, suspicions about the outcome would have been taken very seriously.
See 2016 for proof.
Even the court's refusal of the case gets nowhere with them because of how the opposition embraced mass violence.
They'll say with good reason, what judge will stick his neck out for Trump, knowing he'll be destroyed in the media as a violent mob burns down his house.
It's a fact.
According to Time magazine, the mass riots were planned in cities across the country if Trump won.
Sure, they were protests, but we know they were planned by the same people as during the summer, and everyone knows that would have meant.
Judges have families too.
Forget the ballot conspiracies.
It's a fact that governors use the Chinese coronavirus to unconstitutionally alter the election procedures to help Biden make up for a massive enthusiasm gap by gaming the mail-in-vote system.
They knew it was unconstitutional.
It's right there in plain English.
But they knew the cases wouldn't be seen in the court until after the election.
And what judge will toss millions of ballots out because a governor broke the rules?
The threat of mass riots wasn't implied.
It was a direct hostage situation.
The entrenched bureaucracy and security states subverted Trump from day one.
Number one.
Number two, the press is part of the operation.
Number three, election rules were changed.
Number four, big tech censors the opposition.
Number five, political violence is legitimized and encouraged.
And number six, Trump is banned from social media.
Many Trump supporters were led down rabbit holes, but they're absolutely right that their government is monopolized by a capital R regime that believes they are beneath representation and will observe no limits to keep them getting it.
Trump fans should be happy he lost.
It might have kept him alive.
And this is by MartyrMade.
You could check out it at martyrmade.com.
That's a 34-thread tweet, and it's one of the wisest descriptions of what we're living through right now.
Entrenched bureaucracy and security state subverted Trump from day one.
The press is part of the operation.
Election rules were changed.
Big tech censors the opposition.
Political violence is legitimized and encouraged.
Trump is banned from social media.
And then we're supposed to be surprised when 75 million people feel disenfranchised and they feel as if no matter how hard they work, no matter how much money they give to Trump, no matter how many doors they knock on, no matter how many meetings they show up to, they feel as if the game is rigged against them.
We actually have a path forward.
We have an example of these intel agencies spying on an American journalist, Tucker Carlson, and now they're kind of in a little bit of a freakout mode.
So Tucker Carlson was trying to get an interview with Vladimir Putin, which of course then triggers the other side to call him a Russian agent.
NBC News just recently interviewed Vladimir Putin.
He's been on CNN before.
Interviewing foreign heads of state is a normal practice for an American journalist.
It doesn't make anyone anything but an interested truth seeker who has a platform.
So Tucker Carlson was trying to secure this interview, and then the NSA gets those emails and illegally leaks them to journalists to blackmail Tucker Carlson and try to take his show off the air.
So then Tucker was presented with this evidence and he had a decision to make.
What is the right thing to do when you know your government is coming after you?
Well, number one, you have to get your facts right.
Number two, you have to be disciplined.
And number three, you go public.
This is the one thing that I think that President Trump, when he found out that he was being spied on, he needed to be within a tight framework of what he talked about and how he talked about it.
Because you remember, this sparked huge outrage in late December and early January when he found out he was being spied on.
But then Tucker also put the NSA on defense.
He's now got a coalition of lawmakers, oversight capacity, and the NSA is freaking out because they know they broke the law.
Let's play Cut 51, Tucker Carlson, on Tuesday, how the NSA had leaked his emails illegally to a D.C. reporter.
The NSA has broke the law, and Tucker Carlson can prove it.
Play Cut 51.
Yesterday, we learned that sources in the so-called intelligence community told at least one reporter in Washington what was in those emails, my emails.
There was nothing scandalous in there, thank God.
We're happy to report that.
Late this spring, I contacted a couple of people I thought could help get us an interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
I told nobody I was doing this other than my executive producer, Justin Wells.
I wasn't embarrassed about trying to interview Putin.
He's obviously newsworthy.
I'm an American citizen.
I can interview anyone I want, and I plan to.
And Tucker continues to explain that he was keeping the plans for the interview quiet as to not agitate the Russians.
It was very tempting for Tucker not to go public.
You see, when you're being spied on by the most powerful intel agency in the world, that is almost a quiet form of intimidation.
You better stay in line, Tucker.
Don't be too disagreeable.
He decided to do the opposite.
He decided to use his successful cable television program to play offense against the people that were spying on his communications.
And instead of trying to sue for peace privately, like the Department of Justice did under Trump, where you just try to wait very patiently, Tucker went all out public against the intel agencies.
Play Cut 52.
But still, in this case, I decided to keep it quiet.
I figured that any kind of publicity would rattle the Russians and make the interview less likely to happen.
But the Biden administration found out anyway by reading my emails.
I learned from a whistleblower that the NSA planned to leak the contents of those emails to media outlets.
Why would they do that?
Well, the point, of course, was to paint me as a disloyal American, a Russian operative, been called that before, a stooge of the Kremlin, a traitor doing the bidding of a foreign adversary.
The NSA is not in a good place right now because Tucker has now built a broad-based coalition of Republicans who, God willing, will take back the House of Representatives.
And the NSA is now going to have to be called under subpoena power of Congress for legitimate oversight.
There is more support now for a church and pike committee to oversee the intel agencies than ever before.
But Tucker very well could have done what Republicans do the best, nothing and hope that it goes away.
Instead, Tucker took a risk.
Tucker going public and calling out the intel agencies.
It could have cost him his career.
It could have, let's just say it could have been a lot of different levels of treachery could have been involved.
Tucker Calls Out Intel Agencies 00:00:48
And that is the only thing we could do right now is we must be disciplined and we must play offense in points of vulnerability against the bad guys that wish to restrict our freedoms and our liberties.
The same thing for every single level of power that we have, that we're experiencing right now on the school board level and the local level, that when we speak clearly and we get our words right and we're filled with courage like Tucker was, who basically said, I'm going to risk my entire career against the most powerful government on the planet.
And guess what?
That government and those intel agencies are on defense and the good guys are on offense.
And that is the blueprint and the way forward.
