We have a really, really good show today.
And I don't say that lightly.
We talk about the incredible, like, movie-esque, video game-esque drone attack that happened inside the interior of Moscow.
Terrifying stuff that is just leading to...
Blake Neff joins me for that discussion and breaks in all the details.
You're not going to want to miss it.
It's just absolutely stunning.
Operation Spider's Web.
They've been planning it for 18 months.
And then I welcome Alex Marlowe, Editor-in-Chief of Breitbart News and also host the Alex Marlowe Show, to talk about Pride Month.
Where has it gone?
Is it more muted this year?
Is it on its way out?
What can we do to help?
Hurry, it's demise.
And then we talk about mental health.
Is there a big divide between conservatives and liberals?
You're not going to miss these details.
Pretty shocking divergence on the two political movements in this country when it comes to mental health.

Hey everybody, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.
Andrew Colvitt in for the one and only Charlie Kirk today.
Honored to be with you, and I'm joined by Blake Neff, Roman historian extraordinaire and many other things.
Blake, welcome.
Howdy, Andrew.
Good to see you.
Good to see you as well.
Charlie is on assignment.
He'll be back for the rest of the week, never fear.
So, Blake.
You and I were talking this morning and we sort of didn't hit a very, very big story in the world of geopolitics, namely what Russian bloggers are calling The Russian Pearl Harbor.
And of course, we're talking about the drone strike carried out by Ukrainian forces.
They smuggled drones into the interior of Russia.
And what amounts to a major escalation of that conflict, right as peace talks are ongoing in Istanbul, Trump has sort of thrown up his hands at both the Ukrainians and the Russians.
And we're seeing that, unfortunately, for the world and for the prospects of World War III, Ending a war is extraordinarily difficult, and especially when you get dug in, when either side thinks that they're either being forced or asked to concede too much or concede too little,
especially if you're Russia and you think you're winning this war, and Ukraine looking to make a punch Russia right in the eye, right in the face, to say, hey, we still have cards to play, echoing back to Trump's famous statements within the Oval Office with Vladimir Zelensky.
And J.D. Vance.
So, Blake, the details of this strike are striking.
It almost reads like a movie.
Why don't you walk us through how Ukraine was able to execute what they're calling Operation Spider's Web deep into the heart of Russia.
Yeah, Andrew, it is genuinely a solid.
It's a lot like a movie.
It's also a lot like a video game.
That's pretty funny because I heard comparisons to one I've actually played before.
It's called Ace Combat.
So it was done with drones, unmanned drones.
Several hundred of them, I believe.
I think they said it...
But what they did is they weren't flown in just from Ukraine.
They were smuggled into Russia.
And at least what they're publicly claiming they did is they were packaged in cargo containers that were designed to look like they were carrying prefabricated housing.
The reason they did this is since it was prefabricated housing, they had a good excuse for why.
Why do these cargo containers have solar panels on top of them?
Well, they weren't for the roofs of housing.
They were to keep the drones charged.
They actually were just using them to keep the drones powered up as long as they needed them.
And then they could launch them whenever they were in place and ready.
Reportedly, they were planning this operation for 18 months before they launched it.
And so they got these containers into Russia.
They got them.
Outside of these different bases they want to attack.
And to give you a sense of the scale here, one of the bases they attacked was just outside Murmansk, Russia.
If you look that up on a map, it's in the Arctic Circle.
It's in the far northwest of Russia, close to Finland.
And on the other end of Russia, another place they hit was in Amur province.
That's way out in far eastern Russia.
It's close to China.
It's close to Japan.
They hit a base there.
They also hit a base at Irkutsk.
That is in central Siberia near Mongolia.
And they hit two air bases closer to Moscow.
So they really hit every single part of Russia with this attack.
They claim they took out several dozen of these heavy bombers that Russia has.
These bombers, they can be used for delivering nuclear weapons, but the reason they wanted to hit them was they're also used for delivering cruise missiles, other heavy ordnance.
And so they took them out.
They're claiming they took out about $7 billion worth of Russian airplanes, which is quite a few.
And as we've learned with these drones, they can be made incredibly cheaply by command.
The drones by Jake Sullivan during the Biden administration.
U.S. taxpayers poured $1.5 billion into developing these drones that were probably used to coordinate and execute this attack.
So American fingerprints are very much all over this.
I want to, I mean, so it's 117 drones.
We're talking about to the Arctic Circle near Japan, closer to the border, around Moscow.
Right in north of Mongolia and Siberia.
I mean, this was a very widespread attack.
Vladimir Zelensky is saying that this was a brilliant execution.
And again, the peace negotiations are ongoing in Istanbul.
So turning our attention to that, Blake, I mean, so it's fair to say Russia got hit pretty hard.
But this doesn't fundamentally change their nuclear capability.
It maybe stretches their capacity somewhat, right?
That they now have maybe a third less of these heavy bombers that can deliver nuclear blows.
We're not hopefully getting to that point.
That's the big question.
Are we escalating towards a potential World War III?
That's been the risk with this conflict from the beginning.
There's some news reports that are saying Vladimir Putin is being urged to consider nuclear weapons.
And but even if he doesn't go that far, Blake, I mean, a ballistic missile, I've seen video footage of that in eastern Ukraine where they drop these.
Those are devastating in and of themselves.
Does this change Russian calculus of what they're able to do inside Ukraine?
Well, it gets into, you know, the big picture, which is, you know, we've heard people who have been saying, you know, the war is three months from ending for, you know, three years now.
And I think this is mostly a signal that, hey, like, Ukraine can still make things hurt a lot.
They can cause a lot of embarrassment.
There's a lot of ways this can damage them.
And so in a sense, you could say that's actually a play for peace in that And I think a barrier to serious escalation that is helpful is Trump is so clearly in favor of getting a peace deal.
With Biden, we had Biden saying Putin has to go.
He's using this regime change rhetoric.
He was showing no interest in negotiation.
Trump clearly wants to negotiate.
He's clearly pressured Ukraine to make some concessions.
And it seems, based on his anger, that it's Russia that is less interested in peace than Ukraine, which can make sense.
They have more reserves overall.
But I think that's a helpful barrier to this escalating too far.
I mean, if Putin actually used nuclear weapons, I think that would very quickly turn almost the entire world against him because it would be so extreme and frankly so unjustified.
So we have to hope that doesn't happen.
Hard to know if that is, you know, brinksmanship or, you know, sort of the PR role of this.
I'm going to take their word for it that they didn't know beforehand.
All of this complicates a very high-wire act peace negotiation that's going in Istanbul right now.
Oh, for sure.
Oh, for sure.
And another angle that is very important to emphasize here is this clearly is something we should worry about, too.
It's a good point towards the need to secure the border and also just...
America, we have tons of shipping containers coming into this country all of the time.
And any country can afford drones like this.
That's what's really crazy is North Korea, Iran, really poor countries could be developing these drones and ship them in quietly in a container and use them to hit things in the United States.
And we'll probably be seeing this.
In the future someday.
And we need to start talking right now about being ready for that.
Yeah, that's a really good point.
And actually, you kind of remind me of the terror attack that happened in Boulder, Colorado.
Tom Homan's warning that it's just a matter of time until we get more of that in the interior of the United States.
With all the talk about tariffs, high prices, and the stock market, most people are feeling the financial pinch.

So, Blake, you were talking about the soft targets, vulnerabilities that we have to contend with here.
This drone technology is really going to change the way that warfare is executed in many different theaters across the world, but definitely here in the United States, kind of makes me think of Golden Dome, kind of makes me think of hardening our own southern border, but there's that northern border, which is huge.
People don't talk about it or think about it as much, but it is a vulnerability.
Reflect on what happened in Boulder, Colorado, and dive deeper into what you're thinking there, Blake.
Well, so there's Boulder, Colorado, of course, where you just have a guy who came across the border and shouldn't have been in this country, and he was just a lunatic, thankfully.
Went nuts, tried to kill people by setting them on fire.
Thankfully, he was nuts and inept, so nobody died currently.
But it's trivially easy to imagine...
We had this effectively open border with Earth for four years under Joe Biden.
It wasn't just people coming from Mexico.
It wasn't just people from Venezuela or Haiti.
we had literally tens of thousands of people who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border who came from China and got in.
And you hear wild stories like Chinese gangsters basically took over the illegal, Things like that.
Another story I always find myself thinking of, you can Google this, in Fresno, California, the Chinese managed to build an entire illegal secret bio lab in like a warehouse in Fresno.
And we don't really know what the purpose of it was, but someone built an illegal entire bio lab.
That we only found months or years later.
So if you're able to sneak that kind of thing in and pull it off, you can sneak in and pull off just about anything.
And what we see overall is there's been a change in the nature of warfare.
You think 100 years ago in World War II, what mattered was, what's your overall industrial output?
Can you make thousands and thousands of very simple tanks and planes and guns and artillery and all of that?
And that was great for America.
We could build these bombers that, you know, stealth bombers that could drop these extremely high tech bombs that we could pilot into a specific spot.
And you could just blow anyone to smithereens and we could beat, you know, any country in a war with almost no casualties.
Now what we see, though, is this rise of the power of war.
That we can build a robot that, you know, for a few thousand bucks, you can build a robot that you can stick a bomb on, stick a gun on, and it can fly basically anywhere.
Or go look at what Boston Dynamics is building.
You'll be able to build a little robot dog-looking thing.
And again, put a bomb on it, put a gun on it, and you can hide it anywhere, and it can attack anywhere, and nobody's life is at risk.
You know, suicide attacks have always been possible.
And the biggest barrier to them, frankly, is there's a limit on how many people are literally willing to kill themselves to fight for a cause.
But now you're getting rid of that limitation.
You can do fully autonomous attacks with robots, with drones, and suddenly suicide-style attacks can happen anywhere without having to sacrifice anybody.
And really, the reason we don't see them in the United States is, thankfully...
And thankfully, under President Trump, we seem committed to not getting into one of those wars.
But I fear that if it were to happen, even against a marginal country like Iran, you could very quickly realize there are a lot of vulnerabilities in the United States that are shockingly easy to hit.
Yeah, I think you're spot on.
Let's go ahead and play – I think it's 321.
This is Tom Homan's warning to us.
321.
I've been doing this for 40 years.
It should have scared out of every American what the Biden administration did.
This 2 million known gotaways scares the hell out of me.
So I'm convinced something's coming unless we can find them.
Over 2 million known gotaways and Tom Homan with the stern warning to all of us.
And I'll never forget.
I have the team pulling the clip.
In lieu of having the clip of that one scene at the southern border where it was just completely wide open and it was some sort of Muslim crossing the border.
I don't know if you'd call him a jihadist.
He certainly sounded like one.
And he said, you know, there was a cameraman interviewing him.
He said, you don't know who I am?
You're going to know who I am.
You just wait.
You're going to find out who I am.
And those types of warnings should keep our law enforcement Ask 10 people to define
the word capitalism.
How many different responses do you think you'll get?
This is a word that comes up all the time, but does anyone know what it really means?
Hillsdale College offers more than 40 free online courses.
That's right, free online courses on subjects like the Book of Genesis, the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the history of the ancient Christian church.
It's hard for me to even say which is my personal favorite.
You guys have got to take these online courses.
They've recently launched a new course, Understanding Capitalism, that I've been watching.
In seven lectures, you'll learn about the role of profit and loss, how human nature plays a part in our economic system, Why capitalism depends on private property rights, the rule of law, and above all, freedom.
And why capitalism is ultimately a system that encourages morality rather than undermines it.

All right, let's welcome in Alex Marlowe, editor-in-chief of Breitbart.
Alex, how are you doing today?
I'm new, great Andrew.
Always nice to be on the Kirk Show, either with you or Charlie.
Well, I appreciate that.
I appreciate that a lot.
You know, so, Alex, I was talking with you in the break, and, you know, we just, we have to hit this.
What a year, what a difference a year makes, especially when it comes to June.
June may be the most pronounced difference, most pronounced difference.
And that, of course, is because it's Pride Month or used to be Pride Month.
Tell us what you're seeing in corporate America, Alex.
Are corporations sort of tacitly agreeing to this Pride stuff and it's behind the scenes?
Every year before this, you would see them change their logos.
It would be all over.
We're not seeing that this year, are we?
Yeah, not quite as much.
It's really interesting.
By the way, I think Trump missed an opportunity here, Andrew, and it's too late for this, but maybe he could do it next year.
What he needs to do on May 31st is declare June Black History Month.
And then declare Pride Month February the shortest month.
He needs to switch them.
So then we'll do two Black History Months in the same year, and then we'll have no Pride.
And the Pride Month left to wait and become the shortest month.
And he could do this, and I don't know if he can unilaterally do this, but he should try it and just see how that goes, see how people react, just like people's hair on fire.
You can't get mad at that, can you?
No, I don't think so.
I don't think so.
It's time to rectify this.
Yeah, it's really interesting to track because it's sort of the way you see, for example, with Sanctuary City.
So we vote against Sanctuary City.
Sanctuary cities in this country.
We vote for President Trump.
We vote for conservatives.
And then LA immediately enacts more sanctuary city policies after the November election.
San Francisco now is doing the thing where basically if you get a 21%, you can get an A in your class.
Oh, they walked that back, by the way, Alex.
After blowback.
Oh, good.
Thank you.
But you know where their heart is.
That's where their heart is, is that we're going to go lean into the equity.
We're going to lean into the DEI.
But much of the country is throwing their hands up and saying, this is over.
The woke moment's over.
There's some good examples of that.
So we were tracking at Breitbart.
We've been tracking Target, which Target was one of the leaders of having the pride displays.
And they're really pulling back on it.
They're doing almost nothing.
And this was our audience went crazy for this.
So Target toning down all.
But then you see things, Andrew, that almost shock the system.
The PBS doing Sesame Street Pride.
So Sesame Street is designed for young children.
And they put out a tweet or a social post where it's not just the gay colors, it's the trans colors.
So this is Sesame Street, government-funded for preschoolers, grooming children.
This should outrage every American.
And I'm not the one who's outraged about every last thing that's done.
And I'm pretty libertarian about how adults behave.
But to try to prey on children and use taxpayer dollars to do so is so in your face.
And we need to shut this down, have a zero-tolerance policy.
I've got young kids.
The transept has no business in their childhood.
And if Sesame Street is going to push this, we need to take every last penny from PBS right away.
Well, and this is a perfect time to play cut 326.
I think this is kind of some of the stuff you're talking about, Alex.
326.
Cookie, are you ready to see my monster piece?
Ready, Jonathan!
Mama Bear, some runway music, please.
People and monsters alike, a round of applause for the Not Too Late show's newest monster, Alan!
Ta-da!
Yeah, if you have little kids, don't watch that.
Don't watch that.
Don't watch the Iraqi version.
Don't watch the American version, Alex.
By the way, I will say we did find one corporation besides PBS, taxpayer-funded, that did change their logo.
325.
Go ahead and throw that up.
This is the one.
I bet you won't guess where it's from.
Oh, wait.
That's right.
It's from Canada.
Air Canada did change their logo this year because, of course.
Alex, your reaction to the more muted.
Yeah, it's good, but it's not enough.
We should not be doing any of the trans stuff now.
It's all mental health issues, and we need to start the empathetic, the compassionate position is to acknowledge that the trans contagion that's going on is very negative for families, is destroying families.
And what it is doing is it is, I think, condescending to people who are mentally ill who need to be transcontained.
It ruins lives.
I know I met Chloe Cole through you guys.
Listen to everything Chloe Cole is saying.
She's your advocate in this regard.
Is it someone who is completely mutilated because her community got wrapped up in this contagion?
We need to be elevating stories like that at this time and discouraging any of the trans stuff.
It has to go away.
It has to stop.
Anything, when you're talking about minors in particular, should be completely unacceptable.
It needs to be illegal, to be frank.
None of this should be allowed in this country.
There's not a freedom issue.
This is encouraging mental health issues at the expense of the family.
We've got to get away from that immediately.
But you still see these things, like a lot of these sports, these sports...
Go on there and roast them.
Roast them all.
Tell them it's not acceptable until it's all gone away.
We can't do any more of this DEI pandering.
This year is over.
It's time to stop.
Well, I totally agree.
I mean, listen, you know, and Charlie put out a tweet to this extent, but I couldn't agree more.
You know, pride, you know, most people will accept that two grown adults have, you know, freedom within the privacy of their own home.
Nobody wants to be policing that.
I mean, some people do, but like the vast majority of Americans are not interested in that.
Yeah, exactly.
I have other things I'm much more interested in.
Secondly, though, what the fundamental flaw of pride was is that it was coercive.
It was designed to force not only acceptance, the thing we just talked about.
It was designed to push the limits and then make you celebrate, forced celebration, and then forced participation.
Your kids will hold the rainbow flag in their hand and cheer it on, or your kids will have to talk about it or act it out.
I find it corrosive.
I find it unproductive, destructive.
Morally repugnant when you see the way that they go about in the streets, you know, grown men whipping each other, wearing leather straps.
You got like Scott Wiener, the state senator out of California, who's pictured doing these types of things, celebrating.
You cannot normalize that type of behavior and still have a moral and upright culture.
You just simply can't.
And by the way, I would feel the same, Alex, if it was straight couples doing the same thing out in the middle of the street.
There's no place for that in polite society.
Yeah, I do think that the internet, which is not always right, but I do think that the internet sort of consensus that this is becoming, it's really about autogynophilia, where it's really about sexual perversion that you dressing as the opposite sex and impersonating the opposite sex is a sexual fetish.
I think that's the vast majority of these things.
I'm not saying it's every single one.
I'm just saying that I think that's the vast majority of what's going on.
And introducing this stuff to children, as PBS is doing with our tax dollars, is designed to usurp the family with a higher authority, which is the government in this case, to try to sow confusion and to sow chaos because it makes people much easier to control in that way.
And that's what this is all about.
But I'll tell you, for these companies, Andrew, It becomes a corporate issue.
If you look at the WNBA, and if you look at Major League Baseball, and you look at the Washington Capitals, and the Washington Commanders, and the Washington Nationals, and the New York Giants, these are all teams that did pride stuff this year.
Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears, New York Mets.
They're just trying to pander, trying to sell more tickets.
But you can make them feel a little pain over this.
If you go over and say, we're not doing this, particularly if they've got the trans stuff going on.
If you're doing the trans stuff, I'm not going to bring my fans.
Well, I think we are making progress, Alex.
So, there is a clip here.
Let's go ahead and actually, 327, throw that graphic up.
Boise Pride cancels season kickoff, citing insufficient attendance, which is something.
to behold, certainly.
And, you know, LGBTQ organizations across the country are reporting substantial cuts in funding, thanks in large part to the Trump administration ending DEI programs.
So there are actual cultural wins that we're putting up.
I mean, but again, let me restate, I am for just getting rid of Pride Month altogether.
Like, we should just not acknowledge it.
We shouldn't have to.
I mean, we're still having to talk about it right now, because as you said there's still companies There's still sports teams that are posting about this, local high school teams, all the things in the middle.
So we still have to sort of talk about it.
We can't act like it doesn't exist.
But hopefully in a year or two, this thing will be so relegated to the fringes that we'll just get to ignore it.
And Pride Month, there's a whole push online that this should be Veterans Month, this should be Family Month.
There's actually a bill going through Congress right now.
Yeah, go ahead.
I got a perfect analogy.
I got a perfect analogy.
So this is where, do you remember the latter stages of COVID when the last, you know, 10% of people were still wearing masks?
I like that because you would know who all the weenies are based off of who's wearing the mask.
Like, the last people wearing the mask, they're just announcing themselves.
I definitely don't want to talk to you at the T-ball game, and I'm definitely not going to have a donut and coffee with you after church because if you got that mask on, I know you're nuts.
Like that's what's gonna happen with the pride stuff.
The last few people celebrating, we're just gonna know that's their signal, stay away So I think that's where this thing is going.
And so we just got to get it down to that level.
We don't need to get it down to zero.
We just need to whittle it down so it's only the hard course we're still celebrating.
And they're just announcing themselves that you guys can stay away from me and my family and just do your own thing.
I completely agree.
And, you know, while we're on the topic of mental illness, Alex, a new study came out, and actually Nate Silver is behind it, talking about which party, a little political leaning.
You will never guess, Alex, who is reporting better mental health.
You'll never guess.
It's not obvious at all.

So here's a list.
Go ahead and throw up 329.
This is a list of NFL teams that did not, Alex, publish the Pride stuff.
NFL teams that did not, that would be the Dallas Cowboys, New York Jets, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Indianapolis Colts, Las Vegas Raiders, New Orleans Saints, which is a little surprising, Tennessee Titans, Kansas City Chiefs, and Philadelphia Eagles.
Those teams did not publish statements or social media posts acknowledging Pride Month, according to The Spun.
One of our producers is like, Cowboys celebrate Pride year-round so they don't have to post about it.
That's not nice, team.
Apologize to all my Cowboys fans out there.
But they are, you know, that is a polarizing team.
It's a polarizing team.
I would think that's true.
Alex, go ahead and plug your stuff for our audience.
You are the host of the Alex Marlowe Show, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News.
Tell us how we can find you.
The important point I think to make about that is that you have to withhold some business from these people or they're not going to stop this.
If they don't feel the pain, then you're not taking it seriously that you want to stop.
If you want the pride pandering to stop, you want the trans pandering to stop, if you don't want the trans stuff in pro sports and NFL sports, then you either have to at least vocalize it on social media or whatever to these groups of people, or you need to withhold some business.
I'll tell you, when all these companies that I would patronize put up the black square during the George Floyd farce, I would not buy their stuff.
And you should not.
Either.
That's my take on this.
If you're serious about trying to make progress here, Andrew, you absolutely cannot continue to do business at the same level with these people who are engaged in normalizing trans grooming of children, which is what all this is.
Yeah, I mean, well said.
And so I completely agree.
This was the energy, by the way, of last year and a little bit the year before.
Yeah, or we just took it to these people for one of the first times in the I think it was a foreshadowing of November 5th, frankly.
All right, so Alex, let's talk about mental health.
There is a fascinating new, I guess, poll survey from Nate Silver.
And let's go ahead and throw up 313.
And what it reveals is that 39% say it's very good.
Poor is only 19% of conservatives.
And why that's noteworthy, Alex, is if you contrast it to liberals, 45% of liberals report having very poor mental health.
Alex, the question is, did you need a poll to tell you this?
No, I didn't.
But I'm glad it's here, because sometimes the data, this is an old Dennis Pragerism, Andrew, which is that the data tends to either confirm what you can observe with your own two eyes and kind of back it up, or it's BS.
So this is one where it does kind of confirm what you can back up with your own eyes.
And it's funny, I had flagged this from Charlie's Twitter.
Charlie tweeted this, and I had flagged it to talk about it on my show, The Alex Marlow Show, today.
So it's better to talk about it here.
This is something that conservative families, Andrew, We have a more balanced life.
We're more spiritual.
We've now learned we're in better shape because, remember, Maha, this is a conservative thing.
It's red-pilled to go to the gym now.
Obviously, if you are someone who does not get all of your values from TikTok and from social media and you get them from the Bible, for example, you get them from your family, you get them from deep thought and reading, and you can commune with nature, you touch grass, you go to the gym, of course you're going to have better mental health.
And who's going to do those things I listed?
Of course it's mostly going to be conservatives.
And I'm not saying that there aren't people, I'm sure, with excellent mental health on the left and with terrible mental health on the right.
But as a pattern, the things that conservatives do to occupy their time is going to make you a more balanced person and a more satisfied person who's leading a more meaningful life.
If you are a secular leftist, you're probably leading a life with less meaning.
It's just a fact.
And it just lets you.
Yeah, I mean, listen, this is a classic.
It's so obvious.
It's almost cliche at this point.
You know, liberals and progressives, they use politics and their grievances and their sense of injustice in the world to fill an existential void in their soul.
Right?
And conservatives, this is why we always talk about the good, the true, the beautiful, the eternal.
Those are the things that provide actual joy.
Now, joy is different than happiness.
You can be happy being a drug addict once you take that first hit.
But happiness is fleeting.
It's not as deep.
It's not as meaningful.
Joy is provided by the things that conservatives value, the things, the values that we promote, the ideas we promote.
And of course, that's family, community, country, faith.
All of those things, the eternal things in life will give you more pride, more joy, less pride.
We can have pride in our country, but that's not what we're talking about in this segment.
But nevertheless, I think this is one of the most telling polls, Alex, simply because it shows – and actually, here's the tie-in.
Nate Silver was bringing this up because this is one of the reasons he believes that there's a disconnect between men and the Democrat Party.
Men and the Democrat Party.
Yeah, I think it's probably connected.
It's not the most obvious for me, but it's probably connected.
