The Charlie Kirk Show - (Insert Rocky Theme Here) with Doug Mastriano and Jack Posobiec Aired: 2022-10-29 Duration: 34:44 === Rallying For Doug Mastriano (13:47) === [00:00:00] Hey, everybody. [00:00:00] Today on the Charlie Kirk show, Jack Posobiec joins us to unpack the Elon Musk saga. [00:00:05] And Doug Mastriano, who is hopefully going to be the next governor of Pennsylvania, someone we need to rally for, joins our program. [00:00:10] Support our program at charliekirk.com/slash support. [00:00:15] That is charliekirk.com/slash support. [00:00:18] As always, you can email me your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com. [00:00:21] That is freedom at charliekirk.com. [00:00:23] And get involved with TurningPointUSA today at tpusa.com. [00:00:28] That is tpusa.com. [00:00:31] I really appreciate your feedback. [00:00:33] As always, freedom at charliekirk.com. [00:00:34] It really blesses me. [00:00:36] And thank you guys for starting Turning Point USA groups and come to AmericaFest AMFest.com on December 17, 18, 19, 20 in Phoenix, Arizona, amfest.com. [00:00:46] Buckle up, everybody. [00:00:47] Here we go. [00:00:48] Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. [00:00:50] Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses. [00:00:52] I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. [00:00:55] Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. [00:00:59] I want to thank Charlie. [00:01:00] He's an incredible guy. [00:01:01] His spirit, his love of this country. [00:01:03] He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. [00:01:09] 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. [00:01:18] That's why we are here. [00:01:21] Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage. [00:01:24] For personalized loan services, you can count on. [00:01:26] Go to andrewandtodd.com, the wonderfulandrewandtodd.com. [00:01:33] We spent a fair amount of time hitting John Fetterman, and that is a good thing. [00:01:37] We should continue to keep the pressure on Fetterman. [00:01:39] We need to make sure Oz wins. [00:01:41] But never should we accept the idea that we should have Oz win at the expense of Mastriano. [00:01:47] Well, that is what the snakes in the Republican Party are trying to pull off. [00:01:54] We need to make sure Mastriano wins. [00:01:56] We need to make sure Shapiro loses. [00:01:58] And we are here going to focus a lot of time on that today in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. [00:02:04] Joining us now is one of my favorite candidates running for governor in America. [00:02:08] I really hope he wins. [00:02:09] We're going to do everything we possibly can to help him get him across the finish line. [00:02:12] It is Doug Mastriano. [00:02:14] His website is DougNumber4Gov.com. [00:02:17] Doug, welcome back to the program. [00:02:19] It's great to be back with you, and thanks for having me on. [00:02:21] I like the Phillies hat. [00:02:22] It's very good. [00:02:23] I think we have some Astros fans in the audience. [00:02:26] And I don't know how did they ever have to give back those World Series titles? [00:02:30] Did they ever have to? [00:02:32] Maybe we could start a trend. [00:02:34] Yeah, I don't know. [00:02:34] I think they ever have to give that back. [00:02:36] Oh, Andrew said no. [00:02:37] Andrew's my resident baseball scholar. [00:02:40] So, Doug, talk about your race, and then I'm going to let it rip about this latest advertisement, which I think is the private part being aired out loud about a coup in the Republican Party to come after you. [00:02:52] I don't blame Oz for it because he didn't have fingerprints on it, but it was a lot of operatives kind of in his arena. [00:02:57] Not good. [00:02:57] First, tell us about your race, and then we'll dive into that. [00:03:00] Race is going fantastic. [00:03:01] We are in the southeast outside of Philly yesterday for three events. [00:03:04] The first event we went to in the middle of a workday, it was standing room only in Bucks County. [00:03:09] That's like a battleground county. [00:03:11] And we're going to flip it red this go around here. [00:03:14] We've campaigned heavy in Democrat areas over the past couple of weeks near Pittsburgh, in and near Philly, in Erie, Pennsylvania. [00:03:24] And we always get these massive crowds. [00:03:26] I mean, we were talking about 600 people in Erie. [00:03:29] We had standing room only in an event in a Democrat working class neighborhood outside of Pittsburgh. [00:03:35] My opponent went a couple of days later. [00:03:37] We had four or five hundred people. [00:03:38] I couldn't count it. [00:03:39] Like I said, standing room. [00:03:40] My opponent showed up a couple of days later, and I think he pulled in a whopping 15 or 12 people. [00:03:45] I mean, so that many? [00:03:47] That's a lot more than I would have expected from him. [00:03:49] They have to crop in, Charlie, so you can't see the empty room. [00:03:53] I mean, with us, we just pan the audience, you know, much like what Trump does at his events to see you can see that it's real what we have going on here. [00:03:59] And I think, I guess, kind of to segue, this grassroots movement, for some reason, the establishment is terrified of it. [00:04:08] I don't quite understand what's to be afraid of the people that we say we represent. [00:04:12] Yeah, and you are so good on crime. [00:04:15] You're good on all the issues that matter. [00:04:17] And I want to get to your crime plan, by the way. [00:04:19] It's really great. [00:04:21] And you have a plan that consists of supporting the police, keeping violent criminals behind bars, and cleaning up Pennsylvania's most dangerous neighborhoods. [00:04:28] Tell us about your plan. [00:04:30] So my opponent is a senior law enforcement official, and it's unconscionable that any leader in the Republican Party or any establishment type would think that he'd be a good alternative when people are dying because of his failures of six years on the job. [00:04:44] This would, I think, disqualify him from office because we are looking at almost 2,000 shooting victims in Philadelphia alone this year, 439 homicides, probably will break a record 600 this year in Philadelphia alone. [00:04:57] Over 1,000 carjackings in Philadelphia alone, 4,411 robberies in Philadelphia alone this year. [00:05:04] And open air drug market and on and on. [00:05:07] So my policy, of course, is going to move swiftly with alacrity against the criminals. [00:05:13] A lot of talk, you know, I think confusingly at the Senate level between Oz and Fetterman on crime. [00:05:19] Tell me exactly what a federal senator can do about crime in the state of Pennsylvania or any state for that matter. [00:05:24] They can't do anything. [00:05:25] This is a governor's fight. [00:05:27] And so my crime plan, of course, is go after criminals. [00:05:30] My opponent sits on the parole boards with Fetterman is released between 8,000 and 10,000 criminals early. [00:05:35] And so that's a revolving door there, cashless bail in Philadelphia. [00:05:39] It's just ripe for this corrupt, unsafe environment. [00:05:42] So on day one, I'll have the backs of our police. [00:05:44] We'll fund the police. [00:05:46] We will, of course, make sure they have the resources they need. [00:05:48] We'll be surging special prosecutors in the Philadelphia and other high crime areas of the state to punish criminals rapidly. [00:05:55] We'll be fighting against this revolving door in the criminal justice system, of course. [00:05:59] And we'll be protecting victims as well. [00:06:02] When they release these folks on the streets with this cashless bail, you know, within 72 hours, usually they go after the victims again or those that reported them to law enforcement in the first place. [00:06:10] And so that needs to end. [00:06:12] Charlie, talking to the moms in Kensington where the open-air drug market is, I went without cameras, you know, unlike a politician. [00:06:18] So I did not televise my tour there with my wife. [00:06:22] It was horrific. [00:06:23] The zombie-like people freaked out on fentanyl, needing help. [00:06:28] The Wolf administration has pushed out faith-based organizations and is only using state organizations, which have about a 30% success rate. [00:06:35] I'm told that the faith-based ones are 70% helping people get off the drugs. [00:06:40] We're going to, of course, open up to helping these organizations, any organization that has success in helping people in this cycle of addiction. [00:06:48] We're going to open up the door and support them from Harrisburg. [00:06:52] And law enforcement right now, they know that the governor does not have their backs. [00:06:57] Our governor and the attorney general, they're part of this whole defund the police cabal. [00:07:02] Our governor, in the midst of COVID, in violation of his own policies, marched with thousands at a defund the police rally with a blue lives murder sign behind his head. [00:07:10] And like a typical leftist, he's protected by guns, by police. [00:07:13] I mean, the hypocrisy is just astounding. [00:07:15] That ends under my administration. [00:07:17] I love that. [00:07:18] So now I want to dive into this, Doug, which really bothers me. [00:07:22] So there was an advertisement that was run by Carl Rove Super PAC. [00:07:26] It's cut 124, I believe. [00:07:28] If we guys can begin to queue it up, whatever cut it is, 147. [00:07:32] I'm sorry. [00:07:32] Cut up 147. [00:07:33] I'll call for it in a second. [00:07:34] Which basically is hitting Fetterman, but also says Shapiro is great, which looks like a anti-Fetterman, pro-Shapiro advertisement. [00:07:45] Play cut 147. [00:07:47] I'm actually a Democrat. [00:07:48] I'm running on my record on crime. [00:07:52] John Fetterman's record on crime is crazy. [00:07:55] He's not like most Democrats. [00:07:57] Dozens of times, he was the only vote to pardon criminals. [00:08:01] 225 times, Josh Shapiro voted against the criminals. [00:08:05] But Fetterman voted to release them. [00:08:07] That's nuts. [00:08:08] Fetterman's way more radical than Shapiro. [00:08:11] What's wrong with this guy? [00:08:13] American Crossroads is responsible for the content of this advertising. [00:08:17] Well, so then what that does is it gives comfort to people that will then not vote for Fetterman, but then vote against you. [00:08:24] What the heck is going on here? [00:08:25] Especially, you know, forgiving the culpability of Josh Shapiro as our attorney general. [00:08:32] He's been in a job for six years. [00:08:33] So how does he get a free pass? [00:08:35] And so, Charlie, I got to tell you, on the inside, there was an attempt about two months ago to play this game, try to split the voters. [00:08:42] It's divide and conquer. [00:08:43] And these so-called establishment people are, you know, all right, let's say Oz loses and we have Fetterman in office and Fetterman, because of health, can't stay long. [00:08:52] The governor, Governor Matastriano, gets to appoint the new senator. [00:08:56] And so this, and so we're like cutting off our nose despite our face here. [00:09:01] This is just ridiculous madness. [00:09:03] Josh Shapiro owns the crime in the state, not John Fetterman. [00:09:06] Yeah, he has bad votes on the parole board, but the guy in charge of law and order. [00:09:11] Seriously. [00:09:12] It doesn't make any sense to me. [00:09:14] I mean, it's ridiculous. [00:09:15] And I also think it's going to hurt. [00:09:16] I think this is backfiring because there are a lot of voters that are comfortable with you in the center part of the state, and they're not comfortable with Oz. [00:09:23] And so I think it actually hurts a lot that you guys both need each other as a united ticket. [00:09:28] That's what we should all want, isn't it? [00:09:30] That's exactly. [00:09:31] And you're absolutely right. [00:09:32] The base is 100% on board of me, and they'll tend to go with me. [00:09:38] But if they see that, and Oz is not guilty of this law, as you rightly pointed out, the establishment is putting Dr. Oz at risk by playing this divide. [00:09:47] I mean, I said this to Oz. [00:09:48] I mean, I text him. [00:09:49] I said, you know, I know it's not you, but the people in your orbit are really playing a dangerous game here. [00:09:53] It's stupid and it's wrong. [00:09:55] It's this typical D.C. Uniparty crap, and it drives me nuts. [00:09:59] Doug4Gov.com, DougNumber4Gov.com. [00:10:02] It drives me absolutely up a wall when I see great candidates that get knifed by uniparty Republican consultants because they don't like Doug. [00:10:11] And I don't know. [00:10:12] The whole thing is just really, I mean, you guys understand. [00:10:14] It's the same. [00:10:14] It's like the turtle sending money up into Alaska. [00:10:17] Doug, we're in the final push here. [00:10:20] You're campaigning on the ground. [00:10:21] You're making your closing arguments. [00:10:23] Talk about the health and the state of the race. [00:10:25] Raz Musin has us in a statistical dead heat. [00:10:28] And, you know, Charlie, hats off to the Democrats. [00:10:30] They see the road to the White House in 2024 and potentially appointing a federal senator if Fetterman wins and he's unable to stay in office. [00:10:38] They see that this is a most important gubernatorial race in the nation. [00:10:42] They've poured into the pockets of my failed opponent. [00:10:45] We talked about his failure on crime in the state, despite this establishment trying to say otherwise. [00:10:51] $44 million in this campaign. [00:10:53] And despite being outspent about 10 to 1, we're still neck and neck because we've been taking our message directly to people and through platforms such as yours, making our appeals. [00:11:02] So we're asking people to go to Doug4Gov.com and you can volunteer, even if you don't live in Pennsylvania. [00:11:07] We appreciate any help people can offer us. [00:11:09] Yeah. [00:11:10] And I mean, there's so many different dynamics in this race, and fracking is a big one as well. [00:11:15] Talk about energy. [00:11:16] Talk about what you could do as governor. [00:11:18] And the Democrat Party, they're not totally clear about it, but their agenda really is to destroy fracking in Pennsylvania, isn't it? [00:11:24] It absolutely is. [00:11:26] My opponent is the heavy regulation of our energy sector in Pennsylvania will be in place and remain with him in power. [00:11:35] He's heavily supported by these far-left environmental groups. [00:11:38] On day one of my administration, I'm going to pull us out of this carbon tax that Governor Wolf unconstitutionally signed us up for. [00:11:45] And we'll see a drop in our energy costs in Pennsylvania almost by half within the first few weeks of my administration. [00:11:50] It's called the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative. [00:11:52] I'll be rolling back about eight years of over-regulation on our energy sector, which has forced many of our power plants to leave the state as well. [00:12:00] Many companies leave for Ohio, West Virginia, and Texas. [00:12:04] We have one of the largest natural gas deposits underneath our feet in Pennsylvania. [00:12:10] On top of that, we have high-quality anthracite coal. [00:12:12] We have high-quality oil. [00:12:14] And so, my goal, of course, is to make us a net massive energy exporter to include not only other states, but also to our allies in Europe. [00:12:22] When I was a colonel in the Army, I had many conversations in Eastern and Northern Europe about getting off of Russian oil and gas. [00:12:28] And Lithuania is ready to receive Pennsylvania natural gas. [00:12:32] Living up to their promise to me almost a decade ago, they built an LNG liquefied natural gas terminal, a ship, off of their port at Clapita to receive two years' worth of energy for the three Baltic nations, Estonia, Lafayette, Lithuania, and in great fashion because we are a partner state with Lithuania, our National Guard, as we've been fighting and training with them for us 25 years now. [00:12:53] I served with them in Afghanistan, in fact. [00:12:55] They call this ship the Independence. [00:12:57] I mean, you can't make this stuff up. [00:12:58] There's $100 billion in energy revenues ready to be had, and Pennsylvania should get the lion's share of that under Masteriano. [00:13:04] And look, fracking is class hatred. [00:13:08] They want to make it illegal for rural people to earn money, and they hate on them for basically being poor and white and in the center part of the state. [00:13:16] It's really reprehensible. [00:13:17] Talk about how people can support you on the website, Doug, and the closing pitch and the need for resources. [00:13:22] Thank you. [00:13:23] I mean, we are the birthplace of our nation, 1776. [00:13:25] You know, this and the new birth of freedom at Gettysburg, the picture behind me. [00:13:29] Pennsylvania is the Keystone State. [00:13:31] So if you go to Doug4Gov.com and help us get across the line, just 11 days ago, and we're going to win, but only with the people's help. [00:13:38] Thank you, Charlie. [00:13:39] You bet, Doug. [00:13:39] Thank you so much for joining us. [00:13:40] Great job as always. [00:13:41] We're behind you. [00:13:42] Doug, number4gov.com. [00:13:43] Thank you. [00:13:44] Email us freedom at charliekirk.com. === Cleaning Up Political Violence (02:34) === [00:13:47] There are streams of video of woke left-wing social justice warrior Twitter data engineers that are just getting thrown out of the building at Twitter. [00:13:55] It's happening in real time. [00:13:56] They're coming out and they're coming out and they're coming out and they're coming out. [00:14:00] So the mass firings at Twitter have begun. [00:14:02] Boy, next is the FBI. [00:14:04] I'll tell you what. [00:14:05] That place needs to get cleaned up very, very quickly. [00:14:08] As always, you can email me freedom at charliekirk.com. [00:14:12] I don't want to comment on this too much until I have all the information. [00:14:16] And we never support political violence on this program. [00:14:20] And obviously, the media ignores every time one of our students gets attacked on campus because of political violence. [00:14:25] Just recently, it happened. [00:14:27] But this whole thing with the break-in at Katie Hobbs' office and what's happening in San Francisco with Mr. Pelosi, the whole thing is just very suspicious to me. [00:14:37] I haven't made really strong opinions on it. [00:14:40] The whole thing is just very bizarre, and I don't really know what to make of it. [00:14:43] I'm sure some of you guys agree. [00:14:44] I'd love your thoughts. [00:14:45] Freedom at CharlieKirk.com. [00:14:47] Something about it just smells. [00:14:49] I don't like it. [00:14:50] We need to continue to dive into these topics and these issues. [00:14:54] It's very important as I am watching the videos and the images of people just flood out of the Twitter offices in San Francisco. [00:15:02] And the former employee count increases as Twitter is being liberated. [00:15:10] MyPillow is having their biggest sheet sale of the year.

[00:16:04] Joining us now is Jack Pasobic from the great program, Hun Events Daily, on every night on Real America's Voice. [00:16:09] Jack, tell people how they can find that program. [00:16:11] Yeah, Charlie, just as you said, it's Real America's Voice every evening, 10 p.m. Eastern, 7 p.m. Pacific. [00:16:16] We're also out on the podcast, Apple, Spotify, Rumble, wherever you get your podcast. === Twitter Threats Against Tim (15:33) === [00:16:21] We're out there every single day. [00:16:23] And, you know, just this week, everything that we've seen with Twitter has been absolutely incredible. [00:16:27] We're seeing it across the country right now in terms of the midterms. [00:16:31] You know, I'd kind of say it's basically like there's always this question, right, when you're in an election. [00:16:36] And Charlie, I know you get this on a lot. [00:16:37] You know, are we peaking early? [00:16:39] Are we peaking early? [00:16:40] It doesn't feel that way. [00:16:42] What it feels to me is that the right is cresting, right? [00:16:47] That it's cresting. [00:16:48] You're starting to see that crest of a wave, but it hasn't actually yet crashed. [00:16:54] And that's where you want to be because we're still about a week, week and a half out from the actual election day. [00:16:59] It's a really good position to be in. [00:17:02] That's why the Elon Musk thing happening yesterday with Twitter obviously remains to be seen whether or not he's able to actually, as one man, right, be able to change the entire culture over there. [00:17:14] I like what I'm seeing so far. [00:17:16] We did, we did, I happened to be on Tim Pool last night live while the news came in. [00:17:20] So we had a big celebration. [00:17:22] And I think that in general, as a movement, we should celebrate our victories and take time to do that because you have to understand that restoring free speech to the public square. [00:17:33] I'm not going to say it's more important than an election, but it's almost beyond all of those things because what it does is it gives us the ability to fight on an equal playing field in every election in every context. [00:17:43] I didn't say it's more important than the election. [00:17:45] I did say, though, that if you were to say, Charlie, if we win the House, if that's a given, would you rather have a liberation of Twitter or a Republican Senate? [00:17:52] I said, I'd rather have a liberation of Twitter. [00:17:54] I said, if it was a binary choice. [00:17:56] If the House is in Republicans, because it was, Charlie, would you rather have the House or Twitter? [00:18:01] I said, we have to have some chamber. [00:18:03] We can't have no control. [00:18:04] This uniparty crap in D.C. has got to end, right? [00:18:07] You've got to have at least some check-in balance. [00:18:09] And so we're seeing this with the massive freak out from the media. [00:18:14] Let's play cut 133 of Oliver Darcy. [00:18:16] I want your reaction, Jack. [00:18:19] There is a lot of uncertainty, I think, over at Twitter. [00:18:21] Employees aren't really sure what to expect after Musk came in, took control of the company, and fired the top executives. [00:18:27] I think it's important to point out that, you know, Musk's ownership of Twitter, this deal comes at a really pivotal time for free speech in America. [00:18:37] You know, there's been a lot of tension between balancing the desire for free speech with also the reality that you don't want misinformation, you don't want hate speech to be spread on your platform. [00:18:48] And so loosening those platform rules, I'm not sure what that's going to do. [00:18:53] The bird is freed. [00:18:54] I mean, it's kind of interesting. [00:18:56] So Oliver Darcy, right, this is the guy who sort of, he was Brian Stelter's deputy on, you know, Brian Stelberg called the Reliable Sources, right? [00:19:06] So he was the deputy. [00:19:07] Now he's sort of the Brian Stelter fill-in who isn't anywhere near even as interesting as Brian Stelter was. [00:19:13] He's actually quite boring when you listen to him there. [00:19:15] And it's silly. [00:19:16] It's obviously very silly to talk about not knowing what Elon Musk was going to do, but he's been very obvious about it. [00:19:21] He's given interviews. [00:19:22] He's given speeches. [00:19:23] He's given talks. [00:19:23] He gave a town hall. [00:19:24] And more importantly, he gave opportunities time and time again for Twitter to change. [00:19:29] I want to go back, though, to three years ago, 2019, the Joe Rogan program, when Vijaya and Jack Dorsey won their tape. [00:19:38] Keep going. [00:19:39] If you have this tape, the way that so when Tim goes to her and simply asks basic questions about the enforcement mechanisms, basic questions about the balance of enforcement, is someone being banned versus someone being striked, et cetera. [00:19:55] The tone in which she responds like a school marm. [00:19:59] I know better than you. [00:20:01] It's like when I'm with my toddlers, right? [00:20:03] You know, you're going to go on timeout because you hit your brother, or you're going to go sit down because you threw a toy, whatever, right? [00:20:09] There's no respect at all for the users of the platform. [00:20:13] There's no respect for the customer. [00:20:15] There's no respect for the power, the vast power that Twitter simply has. [00:20:20] Whether we like it or not, it is the only social media platform right now that has soft power. [00:20:26] And her job, right? [00:20:28] She viewed her role as being the one who wields that power, not simply protecting it for humanity. [00:20:36] We don't have that exact exchange, but we have some essence of it with this Vagaya clown, Play Cut 142. [00:20:41] We have a lot of protected classes: gender, race, nationality. [00:20:44] Like these are the protected classes. [00:20:46] But it's not for white people. [00:20:48] When you say gender or race, mocks all protected categories. [00:20:53] So you can't attack someone for their belonging to a particular race or a particular religion. [00:20:57] But you can mock white people, ad nauseum. [00:21:00] It's not a problem. [00:21:01] It doesn't get, it doesn't get removed. [00:21:03] I'm not talking about mocking. [00:21:04] I'm talking about abusing and harassing somebody. [00:21:06] But I mean, if you mock a black person in the same way, it would be considered targeted racism. [00:21:12] Joe Rogan kind of putting her, and she's awful, man. [00:21:15] I mean, she's calling her. [00:21:16] And she's got a nasty person. [00:21:17] Who is she? [00:21:18] This was really one of the greatest exchanges that you saw ever on Joe Rogan, one of the greatest moments. [00:21:25] Specifically, I'm not sure if that's the one where Tim Poole was on, but there were a few where she and Jack Dorsey and it was a series of these basically. [00:21:32] And the idea was that you got the sense that every time she was questioned, you know, why was this specific person banned? [00:21:39] This person, and by the way, we know this continued on because for years after that, remember, this was a year before COVID, right? [00:21:45] So this idea that they were enforcing these policies in a balanced way and just creating an open playing field for it. [00:21:52] No, it's ridiculous. [00:21:53] She was lying through her teeth. [00:21:54] She lied through her teeth to Joe Rogan. [00:21:56] She lied through her teeth at Tim Poole. [00:21:57] And when he's asking her these basic questions, basic, simple questions of why do you treat different groups in different ways? [00:22:08] Why do you seem to have one set of rules for one, as you say, protected class of people, but not this other person under the exact same guidelines, depending on the color of their skin that you don't enforce? [00:22:21] Why did Twitter allow the mass hauling for attacks, chilling, in some cases, very brutal activity towards Nick Sandman, a kid who is 17 years old, a minor, a child? [00:22:35] There are tweets up probably to, I think one was deleted, but Twitter actually didn't take it down from blue-checked liberals talking about throwing him into the wood chipper. [00:22:44] Twitter took no action on those tweets whatsoever. [00:22:48] And her response was always, well, you know, we'll look into that. [00:22:53] Thanks so much for bringing that to our attention. [00:22:55] Thanks so much for bringing that for our attention again and again over and over. [00:22:58] And so when I say to Vijaya, who by the way, and this is the best part. [00:23:01] So I tweeted at her and I made like a MyPillow joke about it because, you know, it's me. [00:23:05] And what was amazing is her tweet. [00:23:08] I've never seen this happen on Twitter. [00:23:09] I've been on there way longer than I should have been. [00:23:12] She untagged herself from my tweet, Charlie. [00:23:15] I've never seen someone be able to use this ability. [00:23:18] It's an administrative ability that she must have. [00:23:20] She actually took my tag from my tweet of her and then delisted it, which is not something that you should be able to do that anyone's been able to do. [00:23:29] I'm looking at it because it's usually it would be blue if somebody's tagged, right? [00:23:33] Hers went completely black. [00:23:37] There's no way to click on it. [00:23:38] The spelling's right. [00:23:39] Everything's right. [00:23:40] She's been doing it to people, not just me, all night long. [00:23:43] I mean, she took it out of her bio. [00:23:44] So let me ask you. [00:23:45] And it's like, look, you make your bed. [00:23:47] Let me ask you, Jack. [00:23:48] So some people in our audience are very cynical. [00:23:50] They say nothing's going to change. [00:23:51] Elon isn't one of us. [00:23:52] This is a waste of time. [00:23:54] Are we seeing, I mean, in the only 12 or 24 hours we've been doing this so far, have we seen anything positive develop yet? [00:24:00] And should we be cynical or should we be hopeful, Jack? [00:24:03] Well, I think that we should, you know, we should always be hopeful, but at the same time, don't put all your eggs in one basket. [00:24:08] I still think there's a place for getter. [00:24:10] I still think there's a place for Telegram, for truth. [00:24:12] Keep those things, keep them open, because even if things are good now, that doesn't mean they'll be good in six months from now, a year from now, right? [00:24:18] You should always have insurance policies. [00:24:20] I like those other platforms. [00:24:22] I'm going to continue to use them. [00:24:23] I'm going to continue to maintain my accounts, Rumble, et cetera. [00:24:26] One of the biggest things that we've seen so far, Charlie, is this idea. [00:24:30] And Bloomberg had the story that Elon has talked about, number one, reversing all permanent bans. [00:24:35] I think that's exactly right. [00:24:36] I think there should be a general amnesty here. [00:24:38] And then number two, he's brought in the Tesla engineers to crack open the algorithm itself, crack open the code of Twitter and instituted a freeze on the code as of about 24 hours ago. [00:24:52] So there was nothing they could do to actually change the code because he wants to see exactly what he bought. [00:24:58] Because Charlie, let's look at this. [00:25:00] He might actually be facing liability here because if he finds things in that code that are not what we're told to advertisers, are not what we're told to the SEC during their deal. [00:25:09] Remember, he's still pretty mad at these guys. [00:25:11] They were in a lawsuit together. [00:25:13] If he finds things that they're liable for, he had to fire them, number one, so as to show that he made changes. [00:25:19] But then number two, we're going to, I mean, this is like Neo getting access to the Matrix for the first time, right? [00:25:25] He's actually poking around when he, you know, that scene where he meets the architect and he's able to see, you know, the code and all. [00:25:31] Now he's actually in there. [00:25:32] So the question is, what are we going to see? [00:25:33] For myself, I've seen, I've definitely seen my tweet scene be flying a little better. [00:25:39] It seems like the shadow ban's off. [00:25:42] Some people are getting their accounts back. [00:25:44] We are seeing some people. [00:25:44] We are seeing people. [00:25:46] It's piecemeal. [00:25:47] But what I would recommend to everybody, though, as a course of action. [00:25:50] So let's, you know, trust but verify, right? [00:25:53] If you had your Twitter account suspended ever, go in today and apply for reinstatement today. [00:26:00] I want everyone to mass go on here and then see if the process is followed properly. [00:26:06] If you're asked, why did you get to spend it, whether it was, you know, if you're not committing like illegal activity, you know, posting, you know, photos of children or, you know, bank vault passwords or whatever it is, you know, go in and see if you can get your account reinstated. [00:26:21] I think if we have a mass movement of people doing that today, then it will really break the back of this entire thing. [00:26:27] And Elon, I think we've already seen this in his text messages, by the way, that came out in the lawsuit, that he's basically said, look, I don't believe in lifetime bans. [00:26:35] I think this should come up. [00:26:36] Donald Trump, by the way, remember, his ban from Facebook was only a two-year ban. [00:26:40] That's actually coming up in just a couple of weeks. [00:26:42] Let's play that piece of tape that you mentioned. [00:26:45] Let's play cut 150. [00:26:47] And I believe that to be the case. [00:26:49] So your platform restricts speech. [00:26:52] Our platform promotes speech unless people violate our rules. [00:26:56] And in a specific direction. [00:26:58] In any direction. [00:26:59] But Uncle, I don't want to say his name. [00:27:01] The guy who calls for death gets a suspension. [00:27:03] The guy who insinuates death gets a permanent ban. [00:27:05] But Tim, you're misinterpreting what I'm saying. [00:27:08] And I feel like you're doing it deliberately. [00:27:09] It's not about one particular thing. [00:27:11] It's about a pattern and practice of violation. [00:27:13] And you have a pattern and practice of banning only one faction of people. [00:27:16] Quillette recently published an article where they looked at 22 high-profile bannings from 2015 and found 21 of them were only on one side of the cultural debate. [00:27:24] But I don't look at the political spectrum of people when I'm looking at their tweets. [00:27:27] Right, you have a bias. [00:27:28] I don't know who they are. [00:27:29] You're biased and you're targeting specific individuals because your rules support this perspective. [00:27:34] Amazing. [00:27:35] Everybody has to go back and watch that. [00:27:36] Look, Vajaya, Tim tried to help you. [00:27:38] He tried to help you. [00:27:39] He didn't listen. [00:27:40] Elon doing this is so incredible. [00:27:42] $44 billion, everybody. [00:27:44] That's a massive deal. [00:27:45] I just, I can't tell you. [00:27:47] It's just, this is, this is the great. [00:27:49] I made an argument, Jack. [00:27:50] It's the single most, it's the biggest, I think, and most significant purchase of our generation, if not in American history. [00:27:58] I think it is the Louisiana purchase of our time. [00:28:00] It is. [00:28:00] Wow. [00:28:01] I think that it's going to go down in history as the Louisiana purchase equivalent. [00:28:04] I mean, and people might mock that. [00:28:06] Show me something close. [00:28:07] I mean, the purchase of Alaska, that's true. [00:28:09] That's big. [00:28:09] But these are governments doing this stuff. [00:28:11] This is a private actor. [00:28:13] Have you, and I just, anyone could challenge me. [00:28:15] You might think that's exaggerated. [00:28:17] Has there ever been a private purchase of anything in American history of this magnitude? [00:28:21] Seriously. [00:28:22] I'm curious. [00:28:23] Let me know. [00:28:23] Jack, one minute. [00:28:24] I want to talk about AmFest. [00:28:26] Tell us about AmericaFest, AMFest.com. [00:28:28] It's going to be amazing. [00:28:29] Well, we were just, you know, we were just playing those clips of Tim Poole, and the huge announcement, obviously, is that Tim Poole is going to be at AmericaFest. [00:28:38] He's going to be there in full. [00:28:39] And I believe, if I remember correctly, he's actually going to be doing his show from AmericaFest from Phoenix that entire week, the Timcast IRL show. [00:28:48] So I'm sure you'll be on Charlie. [00:28:49] I'll be on the whole cast of characters from Turning Point and everything is going to be there. [00:28:52] So it's really going to be the center of conservative, this entire movement, the new right. [00:28:57] Tucker's going to be there, myself, Candice, Kaylee Mack. [00:29:03] Certain names that haven't been announced yet, shall we say? [00:29:05] Some big, big names coming up. [00:29:07] Tim Poole will be there too, though. [00:29:08] He is announced. [00:29:08] Yeah, Tim's the big one. [00:29:09] Tim's the big one. [00:29:10] Yeah, it's going to be really great. [00:29:11] We expect a record crowd. [00:29:12] Anybody around the country can come. [00:29:14] It is amfest.com, AmFest, December 17, 18, 19, 20 at the Phoenix Convention Center. [00:29:23] And the tickets are very, I think, correctly priced and moderately priced. [00:29:27] And the proceeds go to Turning Point USA. [00:29:30] So it's a great way to support two things at once. [00:29:31] It's going to be a show like you wouldn't believe. [00:29:33] Amfest.com. [00:29:35] Jack, I want you to respond to this. [00:29:37] MSNBC says, Elon Musk is a bond villain. [00:29:39] Play cut 138. [00:29:41] I think he's a jerk. [00:29:43] I think that he's cavalier. [00:29:44] I think there's something dangerous when the richest guy in the world controls one of the most important political social platforms in the world. [00:29:52] I just think there's something very dangerous about him. [00:29:54] He reminds me of a bond villain. [00:29:55] As I said, when the richest guy in the world buys a social media platform, it's just not a good equation. [00:30:00] I think he's a dangerous fellow. [00:30:02] Okay, Jack. [00:30:03] Show me one person saying that about the Washington Post. [00:30:06] Show me one of these people anywhere saying this about the Washington Post ever when Jeff Bezos bought it. [00:30:12] That's all I asked for. [00:30:13] When Jeff Bezos, when he has his connections, by the way, bad day. [00:30:16] Took a bath yesterday in the stock market, Amazon. [00:30:19] Oof. [00:30:20] I'm not sure who lost more, whether it was Zuck or Bezos, but he's got connections to the Pentagon, connections to the CIA, then buys the Washington Post, and nobody has a problem with it whatsoever. [00:30:31] Meanwhile, Twitter already was this public entity, obviously a public company, not a part of the government. [00:30:39] But suddenly, suddenly the arguments of, oh, it's just a private entity. [00:30:43] It could do it at once. [00:30:44] Suddenly all that goes away, flies out of the mouths of the very same people that have been saying all along Twitter can do it at once, Twitter can suspend whoever they want. [00:30:53] Whereas I think a lot of us, whether we be Elon Musk or not, and Charlie, you and I have talked before about this sort of awakening of Generation X. [00:31:01] And I think that's what, you know, we talked about Rogan just now. [00:31:04] We're talking about Elon, this, this idea that a lot of Gen Xers are now getting into the game. [00:31:09] And Elon's obviously the biggest example of that because they're sick of the rules of the road being changed. [00:31:15] They can feel the ground shifting under their feet because of woke millennials that are coming to politics and coming to society like crusaders and just smashing everything that's in its place. [00:31:25] They don't want that. [00:31:26] And so obviously, Elon, he's not a conservative and people need to stop thinking about that. [00:31:32] That being said, if he wants to come to America Fest, you know, I'm sure we could probably work that out because I'd love to have a discussion with him on where he wants to write the ship. [00:31:41] I think he said before something like the one we always play on human events is that he said, for me, right looks like the most extreme 10% on the left and the most extreme 10% on the right both being mad at me. [00:31:51] And just so nobody, we're not going to make everyone happy, but what we're going to do is balance out the anger. === Election Night Calendars (02:49) === [00:31:55] I think that's right. [00:31:56] I like that. [00:31:57] So I want to get to some breaking news. [00:31:58] Paul Pelosi is undergoing brain surgery, which we hope goes well. [00:32:03] And they're already blaming MAGA supporters. [00:32:05] What we know about the attacker seems to be some sort of a nudist protester. [00:32:10] Again, I said this whole thing is very suspicious. [00:32:12] There's something here that doesn't make sense. [00:32:14] Where was the security in front of the house? [00:32:17] I don't understand how the speaker of the house doesn't have better security than that. [00:32:21] Yeah, I don't, I mean, what are your thoughts here? [00:32:25] It seems like this is the, it seems like the perpetrator is like this brain-fried Bay Area hippie who's a total nutcase, yet they're trying to blame this on MAGA. [00:32:33] And then yesterday, two days ago, there was a break-in at Katie Hobbs place. [00:32:38] We're 12 days out from an election. [00:32:40] Am I wrong to just kind of be like, what's going on here? [00:32:45] Well, I think it's horrific, obviously. [00:32:46] And any type of violence is disgusting. [00:32:49] And, you know, I would also point out to say, though, that if this was a burglary and a home invasion, is this guy going to be locked up? [00:32:57] Is this kind of guy going to be put right back out on the street? [00:32:59] Actually, that's what happened to so many other people with this cashless bail, bail reform system in places like San Francisco and L.A. and Philadelphia and Detroit. [00:33:09] And so I don't want that. [00:33:11] And so hopefully this would just be a situation where people can all look at this and say, okay, this is horrific. [00:33:17] This is awful. [00:33:18] But we need to treat the situation better, regardless of who the victim is. [00:33:23] Whether the victim is someone who's a member of the powerful elite or the victim is just a mom or a dad that just got home from work and is trying to take care of their kids. [00:33:31] The system should always lock up violent psychopaths and shouldn't let them back on the street, period. [00:33:38] Yeah, there's just something not right about the whole thing, I got to tell you. [00:33:42] All right, Jack, thank you so much for joining us. [00:33:44] Check out Human Events Daily every night on Real America's Voice. [00:33:47] What time does that air every night, Jack? [00:33:48] 10 p.m. every night. [00:33:49] We are the night watch.
