Dodgers, Softball, and Trump 00:09:23
Hey everybody, Tana Charlie Kirk Show.
What should we think about Muslims joining the conservative movement?
What happens when people steal gay pride flags?
We talk a little bit about the Dodgers and then we talk about Mr. Alexander Soros.

Make sure you listen all the way through this episode to the end for a special giveaway offer.
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.
Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
Okay, so let's get to some questions here.
This one in particular, I think, is a theme that I want to explore.
Charlie, can you elaborate a little bit more on Republicans not being in Miami for the arraignment for Donald Trump?
I first disagreed with you when I saw the tweet, but I actually think that they missed an opportunity.
Yes, I will briefly touch on this, which is for those of you that want to see other candidates besides Donald Trump, you have to be honest that they missed a huge opportunity to not be in Miami when Donald Trump was arraigned.
Massive opportunity.
The MAGA base is furious.
They are furious at the Department of Justice and the FBI, and they do not want a candidate who's going to play patty cake.
I'm going to play a piece of tape here.
DeSantis says, my mission is to bring accountability to politicized agencies such as the DOJ and FBI.
As I have said before, and I will repeat, the Republican base does not want accountability.
They want Dresden.
They want it all burned to the ground, and they want it rebuilt in a new image.
Whether or not that's realistic or not is a separate conversation.
Again, I feel kind of silly giving advice to candidates that are not Donald Trump because I am vocally and enthusiastically behind Donald Trump for the presidency again.
But if they're not going to listen, I'm just going to keep on publicly saying they're not.
Instead, I think they're running bat, very poorly managed campaigns, largely, some of these people.
PlayCut 84.
Well, I've addressed it many times, and I'm happy to say again.
You know, my mission is to bring accountability to politicized agencies like DOJ, FBI.
We're going to psych the political bio.
And we are going to end the weaponization of the federal government.
We're going to do that.
If I were to just say about Governor DeSantis' candidacy, it's not going great.
And if you think it is, then please show me some counter evidence.
But Governor DeSantis, in my opinion, was at his best when he was picking the tough fights with Disney, picking the tough fights, and he wasn't talking in kind of a prescripted way.
But it's kind of like the gloves are off and we're going to go brawl.
That is what the conservative movement wants right now.
We want street fighters.
We want brawlers.
We do not want policy adjustments.
It's not the tone at all.
Okay, let's go to another question here.
Charlie, did you see the University of Oklahoma softball team press conference where they talked about their love of Jesus?
Does this give you hope or do you think it's a unique case?
I just love their answers.
Tell me this is more normal than we need to hear in the news.
Diane from West Covina.
Let's play CUT 107.
Well, the only way that you can have a joy that doesn't fade away is from the Lord.
And any other type of joy is actually happiness that comes from circumstances and outcomes.
I think coaches said this before, but joy from the Lord is really the only thing that can keep you motivated, just in a good mindset, no matter the outcomes.
I think a huge thing that we've really just latched on to is eyes up.
And you guys see us doing this and pointing up, but we're really like fixing our eyes on Christ.
And that's something where, like they were saying, you can't find a fulfillment in an outcome, whether it's good or bad.
And I think that's why we're so steady in what we do and our love for each other and our love for the game, because we know this game is giving us the opportunity to glorify God.
Now, I do not follow college softball very closely.
That is a beautiful two statements there.
Very philosophically deep, by the way.
Apparently, they are one of the best college softball teams ever.
Again, literally, if $10 million was on the line, I would have guessed not them.
Okay.
They're calling it a dynasty.
Congratulations to them.
There are some really woke influences at University of Oklahoma that obviously haven't impacted them.
But what she said was so interesting, and it's so against modernity.
The second young lady who spoke, ridiculously deep, where she says that if your happiness comes from an outcome, you're going to end up empty.
This is someone who is pursuing a national title.
And she's like, yeah, that's not going to give us fulfillment.
Instead, she says, a connection to the divine and joy from the Lord gives me strength.
She is 100% correct.
Most college athletes would say, well, now I'm happier now that I won or before.
And she says, no, no, no.
It is a choice that we're going to be grateful.
We're going to honor.
We're going to obey.
What a contrast, dare I say, of these faith-filled, courageous young ladies to say that in a press conference versus the degenerate garbage that has filled the Los Angeles Dodgers.
What a contrast.
The University of Oklahoma softball team is glorifying God, and the Los Angeles Dodgers are desecrating Jesus Christ.
That's not an exaggeration.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are hosting this group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, who they're a hate group, and the First Amendment allows them to do that.
Nobody, by the way, is saying that should be illegal.
This is a big difference between conservatives and liberals.
We're not saying that there should be laws against this and all that.
Well, I think maybe some people are, but I'm not saying that.
The vast majority of conservatives say, okay, you have a right to be insane and hateful and awful and cruel.
What we are saying is, why on earth is a baseball team, producer Andrew's favorite baseball team, producer Andrews, he watched, I mean, I think he just, he loves the Dodgers so much, and I know he's struggling with this, where they're celebrating the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
And there's a ton of Christians on the team, and they're in a tough spot because those players on the team want to be rich, right?
Money means a lot to them, so they don't want to lose their wealth.
And so because they really value being rich, they don't want to ruffle the feathers too much.
The Dodgers are doing a faith day as well, preaching Christianity.
I honestly am a little, I mean, I'm not surprised.
I'm just underwhelmed by the lack of courage by these Dodgers players.
They should have boycotted the game the day they did this.
They could have stopped it.
That's it.
Just one day, one game.
It would have been a shot hurt around the world and said, Look, guys, I'm going to go play the other.
How many baseball games do they have?
162 baseball games or something, right?
Like 161, 162.
I'll play the other 161.
We're done.
You know?
And I'm not going to show up to work that humiliates my faith.
I'll show up tomorrow.
I'll show up.
I'll show up next week.
I mean, Kershaw to his credit came out with a statement.
I don't appreciate when people mock my faith, any faith.
All right, that's fine.
I mean, sure.
Kershaw, who's a great guy, I've heard nothing but good things about him, but he, I think, earns 20 or 30 million bucks a year, probably, and he doesn't want that to be put in jeopardy because that's what they would do.
But they could all boycott one day, just one day and say, look, these are a bunch of freaks.
They're Satanists.
They're desecrating our Lord.
We're done.
That would have been really big.
And they would have received massive support.
Now, Andrew, who's a producer, you know, he's an LA Dodger aficionado.
He says, no, they wouldn't touch a hair on Kershaw's head.
So that means Kershaw is just a coward.
There's no good reason for him not to do it.
So if that's what, if Andrew's saying that, Andrew's saying he should have done more.
Wow, for Andrew to say that, that's a big deal because he tends to defend the Dodgers a lot.
So it's too bad.
But honestly, God bless those young ladies at University of Oklahoma.
Real Weight Loss Results 00:02:32
That's where we started there.
They deserve credit.
That is an infinitely wise statement by young ladies that consider to be the best softball players of a generation.
You might know I've lost 27 pounds on the PhD weight loss and nutrition program.
What I learned when I started changing the way I think about weight loss forever, it's not everyone's fault that you can't lose weight.
And look, you do not have to feel shamed.
And if you think, hey, I've tried everything, hear me out.
And look, by the way, if you look at pictures of me at the Turning Point USA Young Women's Leadership Summit and a couple months before, the weight loss is no BS.
It's a very real thing.
In fact, producer Andrew was worried I was going to fly away.
He's like, wow, you lost a lot of weight.
I said, well, thank you.
It's because of PhD weight loss.
And I got to tell you, if you've tried losing weight and have failed, I'm here to tell you it's not your fault.
Success has nothing to do with willpower.
It is biological.
Your body is working against you to keep your fat.
You have to understand this.
Now, you have to be willing to lose weight.
You have to put in some work with this program, but I have a feeling that you guys are up to it.
The PhD program focuses on scientifically proven nutrition, working through your relationship with food and gives you all the tools to be successful in your weight loss journey.
Like a lower weight means probably a longer life.
Less weight, you're less likely to get type 2 diabetes, heart conditions.
It's good for all health outputs.
And by the way, I'm pretty outspoken against obesity, as you know.
You might say, oh, Charlie, what's the plan?
Well, look, you'll have a nutritionist beside you every step of the way.
They even provide you 80% of your daily food at no additional cost.
Every program is individually customized to your nutritional needs, your schedule, and your lifestyle.
They are committed to helping each of their clients reach their best lives.
If you are ready, call today at 864-644-1900 and find them online or find them at line at myphdweightloss.com.
That is myphdweightloss.com.
I think the world of them, they were able to have me lose 27 pounds and counting.
I really like them.
The physician and dietitian developed, individually delivered, and the coach is clear and compassionate.
And it's time for you to lose some weight.
And if you say, I've had enough, I've tried everything.
I went through this program and the results are real.
And I'm thankful I did.
I'm excited to share these real results with you.
Myphdweightloss.com.
That is myphdweightloss.com.
Okay, there's a great question here, Justin from Michigan.
Pride Flags and Hate Crimes 00:04:42
Charlie, I read that America's only Muslim-majority town, Ham Tremek, Michigan, bans pride flags on public property, which I love.
But it seems to me just a few years ago that Democrats claim Muslims are a big part of their coalition.
What do we do with the Muslim question?
Are they our allies now?
I'm sure their beliefs are consistent.
I'm not sure their beliefs are consistent with American values, or are they, Justin, from Michigan?
So, first, I mean, you have Rashida Talib and Elon Omore that think they own the Muslim community in America.
And it depends on who you're talking to.
I have a really good friend, Dr. Zudi Jasser, who has come on this program before, who is very clear that there is a need for a reformation in Islam.
And he makes a very good argument that certain Muslims who take their faith in a way to supersede the American Constitution, we must have skepticism towards.
That's Dr. Zudi Jasser, who is a devout Muslim himself, but he wants to liberalize Islam to fit better with the American constitutional order.
I don't believe we have to overthink this at all.
Here's Cut 108: Muslim kids stomping on the pride flag.
Well, let me be very clear.
If this is not your own pride flag, I don't support it.
It's somebody else's property.
I mean that.
But if you bought that pride flag yourself, it's an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Play cut 108.
The Arab community is sending a message, I believe, to the woke that they are not accepting of this, ladies and gentlemen.
Yes.
Yes.
Any message you'd like to send today to just I don't know what she said there.
Yeah, so don't steal flags.
But if you want to bought, leave our kids alone, got it.
But if you want to buy your own pride flag and stomp on it, more power to you.
Now, is that technically a hate crime?
I don't know.
This is what's so nuts.
I don't even know the hate crime laws.
But of course, you can do what the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence do towards Christianity, and they say that's not a hate crime.
I know a guy got 15 years in prison in Iowa for stealing a pride flag.
Don't steal people's property.
But what is the pride flag actually saying?
The pride flag is saying, especially towards children, that your sexual partners deserve, like my sexual partner decisions deserve like widespread approval and publicity.
That's really weird.
In Richmond, there was a driver that defaced an LGBTQ street mural and an investigation ensued.
But if you buy your own pride flag and you burn it and you stomp on it, I believe that should be constitutional.
Is it, Blake?
Is that constitutionally protected speech?
If you buy your own pride flag and you torch it, I think it's okay.
Blake said it should be.
We don't know.
But this exposes a major flaw in the Democrat coalition because they simultaneously want to control Muslims politically.
At the same time, Muslims are anti-abortion, anti-trans stuff, not on board for the pride stuff, not on board for the grooming stuff.
So, hey, Democrats, you brought in hundreds of thousands of Somalians and Muslims that do not want your white woke ideas at all.
This one in New York City says, deranged man defecates on pride flag at NYC Eatery.
Hate crime suspected.
Okay, be clear, I do not support defecation on the pride flag.
Don't do that.
Unless you bought it.
No, I'm kidding.
I'm kidding.
It's a joke, Media Matters.
Totally joking, obviously.
But it's interesting, if Media Matters writes me up, that goes to show exactly what Friedrich Nietzsche said: that every society has a central piety of which you cannot make a joke.
You're allowed to mock Christians, piss Christ, sisters of perpetual indulgence.
That's perfectly acceptable.
You could defecate an American flag.
You could burn an American flag.
You could say Christians are awful.
You could do the whole thing where you use condoms as the Eucharist.
But the second that I would make even a joke about the sacrosanct pagan celebration of pride, you're terrible.
You can't mock people who build their identity around wanting to cut off their genitals, apparently.
Can't do that.
But don't steal people's stuff.
You have your own property.
You could do it.
I, for one, am thrilled to finally see some form of a pushback against this garbage.
Juneteenth as Neo-Segregation 00:11:30
Finally, it is relentless.
They've been trying to provoke us.
And right tonight, before people say, oh, Charlie, you shouldn't do that.
Spare me the virtue signaling while a national baseball team is honoring the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
Sit this one out.
All right, here's a fun pop quiz for you.
How many sailors throughout history died from scurvy caused by a vitamin C deficiency during the time of Columbus?
Is it A, 20,000, B, 200,000, or C, 2 million?
Got your answer?
It's 2 million.
Geez, that's like a genocide of low vitamin C. Would you believe 2 million people had to die before we figured that out?
Well, here's what gets crazier.
There's a little known deficiency right now killing millions of people around the world and the disease it's causing.
Insomnia.
According to a study published by Academic Press, magnesium deficiency is a leading cause in sleep disruption in both children and adults.
Look, I can attest to this.
As soon as I started supplementing magnesium, I sleep really well.
No problem going to sleep.
There's only one magnesium supplement on the market that has the full spectrum of all seven forms, and it's called magnesium breakthrough.
I have to tell you, when I take this stuff, I just feel on, like my body is finally getting something it's desperately needed.

Some of you will be listening to this episode as it airs on Juneteenth.
The heck is Juneteenth?
It depends who you ask, okay?
But let's talk about what it actually is.
And we opposed Juneteenth becoming a federal holiday as it happened.
And yes, it is the day that it is mandatory to work at it, Turning Point USA.
We're going to talk about it actually on the day.
I say we're given multiple days out off for our actual Independence Day, July 4th, 1776.
Why is Juneteenth a problem?
Not because, again, it's so subversive.
On its face value, I have no problem with it.
I think it's wonderful to say, okay, liberation of slaves, all that good stuff.
No, no, no.
The issue is that the entire point of it, as per postmodernists do and deconstructionists, is to subvert July 4th.
That has always been the agenda.
That there is a Black Independence Day and a National Independence Day, the same way that they have a black national anthem that plays before NFL games.
That they have black-only dormitories and black-only math classes.
It is a neo-segregationist federal holiday, is what it is.
And they're so tricky, aren't they?
Because they say, oh, Charlie, you against the emancipation of slaves?
Of course, we're not against that, because that's not what this is about.
This is a summertime competitor to create multiple Independence Days to further deteriorate, erode, and destroy the celebration of our actual Independence Day.
I tweeted this out in 2021.
In 2021, I tweeted out: making Juneteenth a federal holiday isn't about emancipation of slaves.
If it was, they would make September 22nd Emancipation Proclamation Day a federal holiday.
This is about replacing July 4th, just like the 1619 project is about replacing 1776.
Conservatives must reject this.
So, yeah, I mean, if they want to make an Emancipation Day, just make September 22nd a federal holiday.
But now we have a full week of Juneteenth festivities, a full week.
We have a whole month during Pride Month, and at some point, you got to wonder, and the answer to the question is actually very simple.
Why do these people need so much celebration?
Why do these people need so many rituals?
And the answer is super simple.
It's because they're not religious.
Well, they're religious in their own way, but those of us that go to church, we're part of something.
Those of us that, if you're an observant Jew, you have Passover, Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashanah, the Sabbath.
So if you completely secularize your society, like I need to be involved in something.
So you just start to create this pagan garbage.
You got to wonder what percentage of the population really cares about whole week to Juneteenth.
The answer is not many people.
I remember one of the criticisms somebody said is, oh, Charlie, you're so angry that there's another federal holiday.
Like, oh, you get another day off.
It's a silly argument.
We know what happens.
And it happened in Tempe last year, and it's going to happen.
You see these ridiculous Juneteenth flags start to pop up.
They held this a week early because they know it doesn't compete with July 4th.
And they can't get close to it.
And July 4th is one of the most significant events in human history.
Let's play cut 79 on Juneteenth.
My dad, Joe Biden, made Juneteenth officially a federal holiday.
My dad has instilled in me a deep commitment to serving and honoring our history and making material changes to the lives of African Americans.
Through his courage, he leads, bringing jobs, justice, and healing to communities all across the country.
Biden says, to honor the true meaning of Juneteenth, he's going to continue to charge forward to literally redeem the soul of America.
Play Cut 38.
By the way, he's talking in religious terms.
Listen carefully.
This is how religious people talk.
Play Cut 38.
To honor the true meaning of Juneteenth, our entire administration is continuing to charge forward to literally redeem the soul of America.
People need connection.
The practices lied out in the Bible, first in the Old Testament and in the New Testament, they just reapply towards their personalized agenda.
Juneteenth is part of it.
So, and this doesn't just stay contained in a box.
Somebody says here, Frank, Charlie, did you see, Frank says, Charlie, do you see the latest news out of the Space Force?
It's hard to even believe.
Yeah, so Space Force, and that's Frank from Kentucky.
So the Space Force general gives a blistering speech at the Pentagon Pride event saying that all these anti-LGBTQ bills, which they're not, for goodness sake, they're anti-groomer, anti-pervert, pro-children bills, she claims are forcing her to hire less qualified candidates.
Lieutenant General Deanna Burt made remarks at the Department of Defense Pride event.
Again, this is what happens when you don't win wars.
The Pentagon hasn't won a war in multiple generations, so they're too busy talking about people's sex partners.
She said that state laws hostile to LGBTQ rights are impacting transfers and promotions.
Wait a second.
So what you're trying to tell us is that, for example, there is a huge Air Force base in Oklahoma, right, right near Enid, Oklahoma, okay?
That the fact that Oklahoma now says that children should not learn child pornography in the schools or should not learn pornography in the schools, that that is preventing.
She's basically saying the entire military is so gay and they're so sensitive that it's impacting transfers.
We are not ready to win a war.
I'll tell you what.
Since January of this year, more than 400 anti-LGBTQ laws, she said, have been introduced at the state level.
The number is rising and demonstrates a trend that could be dangerous for service members.
How?
By the way, I said this privately, and this is where I disagree with Vivek.
If you're trans, you should not be in the U.S. military, period.
Okay?
Go get mental health.
Get out of the military.
A high-ranking Space Force official officer has spoken out saying that it impacts military readiness.
Oh, so not having poisonous material in your curriculum is impacting our military preparedness?
Play cut 110.
Transformational cultural change requires leadership from the top.
And we do not have time to wait.
Since January of this year, more than 400 anti-LGBTQ plus laws have been introduced at the state level.
That number is rising and demonstrates a trend that could be dangerous for service members, their families, and the readiness of the force as a whole.
When I look at potential candidates, say for squadron command, I strive to match the right person to the right job.
I consider their job performance and relevant experience first.
However, I also look at their personal circumstances and their family is also an important factor.
Okay, so I see it both ways on whether or not women should serve in the military.
I think they generally, you know, have roles and all that.
I will say this, though, declaratively.
The attitude of the military has become too feminine.
That is a fact.
She's literally saying that we can't run the military and I can't get people to be reassigned because it might hurt their feelings that certain laws are passed that they don't like.
That's your military.
Feeling first military.
That is a way too feminine approach to how to run the military.
You know what the approach should be?
Oh, you don't want to move to Oklahoma because you're a lesbian and you don't like the fact that Governor Stitt passed a book ban saying kids shouldn't learn about anal sex?
Leave the military.
Thank you.
She's saying that our military is so weak, so fragile, so sensitive that they can't move to red states because they're passing what is really vanilla laws.
This is the same military that was willing to kick people out for getting a useless MRNA shot that actually hurt healthy 23-year-old men, while she's saying that we must be hypersensitive of people's feelings if they want to move to Oklahoma or Kansas or North Dakota.
That's who's running your military.
And you wonder why there's a reason they're struggling to recruit.
And she's basically saying the military has become so gay, so sensitive, so fragile, that they can't operate in half the country.
George Soros War Chest 00:07:01
This is just an extraordinary piece of tape.
You could examine it from every angle.
If you misgender somebody in the army, you get reprimanded and you could be discharged.
It is really something here.
By the way, why is the Department of Defense having a pride ceremony?
And this is what's so important: the race stuff and the LGBT stuff is not a threat.
In fact, it works just fine with permanent war, unlimited immigration, and trade deals.
This is the fault line in D.C.
The orthodoxy in D.C. is: don't challenge our wars, don't challenge the flow of people into the country as long as we get pride flags everywhere.
We'll give you what you want on the pride stuff.
We'll give you what you want on the race stuff.
Just don't get in the way of us bombing villages in sub-Saharan Africa.
George Soros is leaving his entire empire to his son.
George Soros, per on a dollar basis, is far more generous and committed than almost any conservative billionaire out there.
You might say, what are you talking about?
George Soros is worth about $22, $23 billion, and he has dedicated every single penny, basically, to this destruction of Western civilization.
Most Christians and most conservatives are not willing to do that.
It's interesting.
I don't understand the psychology of it totally, but George Soros is saying, I'm going all in.
Every dollar I have until it's all spent, which almost will never be because the money could be reinvested.
I want to deteriorate Western society.
And now there is a younger, more radical, more political operative running that war chest.
Okay, so Alex Soros is now the new director of the Soros fortune.
It's remarkable.
There's a lot you can accuse George Soros of being evil and Machiavellian and wants to destabilize the West.
But he puts his money where his mouth is far more than most conservatives do.
George Soros has said, everything that I've earned, I don't want it to go to, you know, just palatial palaces and all that.
He wants all $25 billion, not to go to hospitals or feeding the poor or even naming colleges after himself, of which most conservatives do, right?
He says, I want it to go to destroy the country.
Well, he doesn't say that, but he might as well.
So he hands the entire empire to Alexander Soros.
I've been following Alexander Soros for quite some time publicly.
He's a very, very active person in politics.
And he says in this Wall Street Journal exclusive, I'm more political.
George Soros made his money through currency manipulation and shorting the British pound.
Alexander Soros is now taking the $25 billion empire and saying, I'm a lot more political than my father.
Alex Soros says the family's $25 billion philanthropy will boost its support for voting and abortion rights.
Alexander Soros is now being courted by the top politicians, or is he courting them?
That's the question.
Kamala Harris, Barack Obama.
The Wall Street Journal piece says that George Soros' foundation directs about $1.5 billion a year.
The Soros Super PAC Democracy PAC spends about $100 million a year.
Some doubted that George Soros would ever cede his top spot while still alive.
Quote, I didn't want the foundation to be taken over by one of my children.
As a matter of principle, I thought it should be managed by someone who is best suited.
For years, people thought that Soros would pick Alex's elder half-brother, Jonathan Soros.
He seemed like the clear successor, tall and athletic, played tennis with his father, worked for a time at the foundation, and stabilized the Soros hedge fund during turbulent times.
Then came a falling out and a change of heart.
Alex, who wears large-framed glasses and a neatly trimmed beard, eventually gained his father's trust, standing in for him on trips to the organization around the world.
He earned it, is what George Soros says.
In December, the Open Society Ford board elected him as chairman.
Most of its $25 billion will be directed to the Open Society Foundation in years ahead, according to a Soros spokesperson.
About $125 million a year has been set aside for a super PAC.
Left-wingers use their money seriously and well, and I cannot say the same for most conservative donors.
We have to learn to do the same.
I believe we have a cut around this.
Let's play cut 112.
Is that right?
Play cut 112.
Well, with Alex taking over, unfortunately, I think the worst is yet to come.
As you said earlier, he said he's a more political version of his father, which I also thought was impossible.

So there was Matt Wall Street General interview.
He tried to moderate himself as Clinton.
He was like more pro-free speech than the average Democrat, but I think he was just playing to that audience thinking, you know, they'd think highly of him, maybe, but I don't actually buy it.

I am 29 years old.
Alexander Soros is 37 years old.
Here's what I can guarantee you if the Lord continues to bless our work: Turning Point USA and Charlie Kirk are going to be in an ongoing wrestling match with Alexander Soros and the Open Society Foundation.
