Go to noblegoldinvestments.com. Well, Steve, welcome back. I think this is your third Turning Point event in the last year. Yes. And this is a big one. This is the biggest we've ever done.

Unbelievable. I've been watching. We've had it up on Getter and Rumble, your stream. Yeah. Our audience has been huge today.

Speaker's been amazing. So, I mean, you've been in the movement for a long time. Kind of give us, as one of the generals of the MAGA movement, where are we? What do you see? Giving you hope? Biggest threats on the horizon?

Lay it all out there. Well, you can tell, look, this movement, the MAGA movement, you know, Tea Party and then the MAGA movement is ascended. And it's on a roll right now, right? You can feel it across every ethnicity, demographic, racial, particularly African-American men, Hispanic men, young people. But the forces aligned against us are only getting more serious and more severe.

And when I say there's no middle ground, there's no middle ground. One side's going to win here and one side's going to lose. And it's obvious that they are so panicked about losing control of an apparatus, as let's be, they've had really control of it since the Second World War. We can expect everything, anything and everything. In particular, I think in the last 72 hours, I think we've seen between the three big elements of lawfare using the courts and the justice system, using the biopharmaceutical aspect, because mail-in ballots, another, you know, pandemic or another flu, you know, people talking right now, COVID's out there again, the flu's out there, you've got to get it, that aspect of it.

And the third, which I never thought they would pull it, but it shows you how scared they are and how desperate they are. Powell and Yellen, they've essentially said they will flood the zone with fiat currency from a central bank in the trade, from a central bank in the Treasury, and Yellen knows where all these pockets of liquidity are, to basically, and they said three or four more rate cuts. This is what two and a half trillion dollars of deficits trailing 12 months. We passed 34 trillion dollars in debt face amount. We've just done it in 90 days tomorrow. They are prepared for the first time in our history to sacrifice maybe two generations.

Anybody under 35, you are screwed beyond belief. Even if Trump wins, or when Trump wins, and when we take this back, it's going to be very difficult. It's going to take us a decade, we're going to have a decade, a lost decade, until we come to grips with this fiat currency, what they've done. They are converging the central bank, the lords of easy money on Wall Street, the tech oligarchs, the national security apparatus, the legal apparatus.

When Rudy gets 148 million dollar judgment, Trump's going to have his company stripped from him. They are pulling out all stops, and they're sending the signal to anybody's prepared to step up, that if you step up, you're destroyed. And they're prepared to destroy a generation or two. First, every, remember, every set of elites we've ever had in this country has always looked down range to try to better the nation, and particularly better future generations. Between, this younger generation under 35, between drugging them, the propaganda, you see now they're traumatized, they're talking about they don't have kids, the family formations later, but now financially and economically. They're prepared to destroy them to stop Trump and to stop this movement.

And that means this next year, you're going to see things you've never seen in your life in any country to try to stop this movement. Including assassination attempts? I think Robert Kagan, let's talk about that. I think there's two Roman analogies here. One is Caesar. Robert Kagan, you've got to remember, Robert Kagan wrote a 5,000 word piece in the Washington Post, I think it was last Sunday.

Try to get the mic as close as you can, Steve. 5,000 word piece, and Kagan is one of the senior intellectuals. His father was the lead, Donald Kagan was the lead classicist at Yale. This is super important.

This is super important. Robert Kagan is the probably the leading intellectual of the neo-cons, okay? For Ukraine, having us all over the world, big Iraq guy, big Afghanistan guy to get us in there. His wife is Victoria Nuland. And as Darren Beatty calls her, the dominatress of the color revolution set.

But she's the one all over, she's been the mastermind of Ukraine from the beginning, the color revolution. He wrote a 5,000 word piece about Trump as the new Caesar and Caesarism, which has historically been when a republic goes to a dictatorship, you are morally justified and intellectually justified to assassinate said leader. It's a dog whistle of predictive programming. By the way, there's dog whistles, but this was just written out to give you full permission.

You have intellectual and moral. A dog whistle may be kind of hinted at, and it's been hinted at before. Then it's a full beacon. Full beacon. All right. Right.

Full beacon for predictive program. And not exactly. And not from some guy who's a marginal guy.

This is not a blog site writer. He's top level intelligentsia. Big time.

And the wife is a the wife is an execution operator in the deep state. Right. And so they've said that. And I think we I don't think we've thrown down hard.

I've also heard I've also heard from some donors that there's been loose talk in Democratic social settings, Republican social settings that they're tossing out the concept of assassination, figuring if they can decapitate our movement. That's why this that's why this AMFEST and you were so important. They have to understand two things. You plan or plot or try to harm Donald Trump at all. You will answer to us. Right. And one of the first things we're going to do when we get in is to find out, open all the files on JFK, on Robert F. Kennedy, on Martin Luther King, on Malcolm X and all of it.

Right. It's time that we had a full you know, the nation come together and find exactly how there's a healing moment, a healing moment, but also to hold people accountable. And we have to hold people accountable.

I would, quite frankly, bring Kagan in immediately. He should be indicted to me. Secret Service should be all over this. They should have all his phone records, who he talked to about this, who at The Washington Post, what editors talked about it.

Did Jeff Bezos know about it? It doesn't get any more serious than this piece because it's giving them the moral authority, the moral authority that that's how evil we are. That's how fascist we are. The way we prevent it, Steve, in my opinion, outside of actually loyal people around Trump, is we have to we have to call the bluff and say they're going to try to kill Trump. And it might scare them enough to stop it because what I found is that if you can broadcast the play before it happens, you've got a 50-50 shot that they don't do it. 50-50.

Is there any other way to prevent them from... I mean, let's just say it bluntly. I mean, we are dealing with people. They say he's literally Hitler. They spied on him. I mean, there is only so much more.

700 years in federal prison. We have 13,000 people here, Steve. I mean, let's just be blunt about it, right? And you look at the polls. Polls are, you know, the country is coming together around supporting the MAGA movement, supporting Trump. It is not a profound new concept that you go take out the person you don't like.

Well, they also think the MAGA movement will collapse when Trump's gone. Well, but can I? No, you go first. No, I think we have to.

That's what this thing is so powerful with Amfest. We have, you know, yesterday was the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. You know that, right? So 250. You right here are the exact lineage in an unbroken chain from the revolutionaries at the Boston Tea Party. 15 months. It was happening on the 16th of December. 15 months after the Boston Tea Party, the shot heard around the world, Lexington and Concord.

15 months. We were at war with the British Empire. These guys understood. With the British Empire on the ascendant, they didn't, they wanted out. They wanted to opt out and were prepared to fight to opt out, prepared to go to war with a powerful empire to opt out.

Why? They understood the power of the landed aristocracy in England and also whose tea they throw over. The East India Company. They understand the power of monopolies.

That's the exact structure we have in the country today. That's why you guys are a direct lineage to the Patriots of the Boston Tea Party. And the establishment, the established order has to understand that you're prepared, not going to back down from this. Trump, they think, they're thinking now to save themselves. Because remember, when we take over, there's no saving them, right?

We're going to go into every file. We're going to have tribunals. To be fair, right, just people that broke the law, right, or people went outside their lanes to do things. But there's things that have gone on in this country for years, right? We are not the republic. We are not true to them, the revolutionary generation, right, if we don't do this. We have to do it. We must do it. It's an obligation. That's what MAGA is about. We have to show that, and we have to call them out.

If anything happens to Trump, they will be held accountable. I'm very honest with the audience. And one of the things that keep you up at night is I'm going to wake up one morning and they're just going to say, you guys know the headline.

Like, I'm going to be honest, like I'm afraid that that's going to happen in March or April. And I want to say one thing. Romans 828, God works all things out for his good, right?

We have a sovereign God who is perfect, and we are nothing here but obedient, you know, to do our part. Donald Trump, he's got to be in Reno today, right? I wish he would have come, worked my hardest.

But God works all things out for his good. What's the buried lead here? You have 13,000 people, and President Trump isn't there. Think about that. You have a new Tea Party here. You have the Boston Tea Party right here. It's right here.

But think about it. It's right here. That it's right here.

The buried lead is having this audience. You have the Sam Adams and the John Hancock's and the John Adams, right in the rub. Patrick Henry's the revolution and the militia guys that were prepared to stand up. I don't want to be too precise about things, but we have it that we're revolutionary. We broke off from the most powerful empire on Earth in its beginning of its ascendance because of tyranny. We wanted our own deal, no matter how uncertain that was. This is we're breaking. We have to shatter the American empire that the founders never in a million years thought about the deep state and the administrative state.

If they came back today, they would be disgusted. But understand, here's the mission. The mission is just to chop off the top, a fake 100 year layering on top of the American Constitution.

Yes. And we have to be very precise about it, right? There's been 100 year layering of unconstitutional garbage and nonsense that has gotten worse and worse and worse and worse, right? Started with Woodrow Wilson. Woodrow Wilson, first president, hated the founders. He said, we're now advanced German historicist, progressive Princeton guy and then FDR and then LBJ and then the Uniparty.

And so our mission statement is just to get back to the promise of the founders, get back to the Constitution and basically chop off this this century of deviation that we've been on. And General Marshall and what General Eisenhower warned us about, all of it, and then the assassinations, anybody steps out of line, the impeachment and Nixon, all of it's all of a piece. Have they played the assassination card very much in the last couple of decades?

Epstein, yes. But I think their other play, I think that there was a new playbook that was instituted, because I think with social media and cameras and leaking, I think it's harder than ever to execute a deep state execution. Well, it's also they've co-opted everybody. Remember our our black male is our biggest enemy. Our biggest enemy in front of us is the RNC and the Republican establishment. Yeah, that's right.

I mean, you've built you've built. Why did why did an entrepreneur, a private entrepreneur have to really build the most robust, urgent, growing, meaningful, impactful political organization when we had the RNC and all these state parties? Right. The reason the reason is, is that they've been co-opted. They sent a letter today. Lindsey Graham is how bad is Lindsey Graham? These guys had to send a letter today to tell to tell McConnell in Langford, stop negotiating on this thing on the border. OK, we're not sending money to Ukraine right now, or we're not going to have you play some games and do some back room deal on some optics to put lipstick on this situation. We need a full we need everybody to come together in D.C. and we need to vet it. That's how bad the report to think in Republican and Democrat terms is old politics.

That's right. This is populist nationalism versus the elite, the globalist elite. And they run the deal right now. And they've co-opted so much. I don't know if a black man I think it's just that it's so lucrative to be part of that, particularly as they take jobs and press down the middle class. That's why the middle class is destroyed.

This is why the working class is destroyed. And now they fled the zone with nine million illegal alien invaders. Right. And they're their big solution to that is given work permits in six months.

So the African-American and Hispanic Americans are get crushed. That's right. They can never look between crushing the working class with the invasion on the southern border. And and by the way, with the immigration laws they have crushing the middle class from high value added tech jobs. That's right. Let's not forget about that and what they're doing with fiat currency to flood the zone with cash, to prop up this illegal illegitimate regime, to destroy a generation that will never dig their way out of this. You're going to be Russian serfs.

You don't own anything and you're not going to own anything. So I want to use that as a good segue, because Steve, you and I have both kind of, by the way, who watches us on Real America's Voice? Anybody? Yeah. Well, thank you, guys.

And I owe a lot to Steve. I like being the warm up act for... No, no, no, no. It's the opposite.

It's the opposite. I know I'm doing well when Charlie takes from his trip. Fire! Fire! I watch him every morning, by the way.

But it's better than Warpath Coffee. Just watching Steve. Who needs coffee, right? It's just boom!

Banning Cannon. You know what I text Steve? I say, enough of the guests.

Just talk. Right? Don't you guys agree? Enough of the guests. Enough of the guests.

No, I like when Steve just says, oh, our guests are canceled. Let me tell you. And it's just kind of like that old sage Irish wisdom, right? Sitting around a fire.

He's just throwing bombs. And it's just, I love it. I grew up with guys like that in Chicago that were mentors, by the way. Tom Patrick. You know, old, really good Irish Chicago guys.

You know the type, right? Rankin Tours. Yeah.

The country is enriched by them. But I want to say our one, two, three combo with Jack. We got to get a picture of us three, by the way.

Five on Rav has unintentionally kind of become this, like, this block, right? And there was no plan. It just came.

The Lord works in amazing ways. But, you know, Steve, you and I have kind of been playing, and we haven't compared notes on this, but we're both super worried about the spending. And I hope you guys heard what Steve said is that the elites, they're so worried about Trump.

They're basically willing to tell anybody 35 you're gonna have no future. We're gonna destroy you to stop Trump, right? Flood the zone with money. But Steve, I gotta press pause here and time out. Speaker Johnson. And I just, let's be honest about it.

Let's just lay it on the table, right? I love that he has a biblical worldview. I love that he says he's a Christian, right? I love all that stuff.

What's going on here? Help me understand. I think, look, I think he's a good man, biblical worldview. When you have to stand in that thing you call the gap, right? When you have to step into that gap in the defining moment, and your actions are gonna be things that drive the direction of history, you have to go all in.

I think, I think, I think because of his upbringing, I think he's way too conventional. And he's thinking this in conventional terms. You know, we just, the trailing 12 month deficit, and if you're in finance, the projections you look at, but the trailing 12 months is what you always look at for a company. 2.5 trillion dollar deficit, okay? 200 billion dollars a month as of right now. So that means every five months we had another trillion dollars. The 33 trillion to 34 took under 90 days.

This thing is called the law of large numbers. It's exploding right now. And there's no plan. The thing they're talking about now, maybe the best case is cuts 200 billion dollars. I mean, but it doesn't even cut. It cuts the rate of growth. Cuts the rate of growth.

It's not a cut, everybody. Don't don't fall for this nonsense. So and they keep saying, they keep saying, oh, it's got to be the entitlements. I go, you give me first off is not the entitlements at all.

The math. But even that, I said, the American people are going to sit there and trust you to mess up, to actually tinker with the thing. When you haven't cut discretionary spending, you haven't gone out and cut out the woken weaponized. It's insulting the people that paid into Social Security their whole life.

Unbelievable. That's the first thing they go after. But the coach, remember, they're obsessed with your twelve hundred dollar a month. No, they're obsessed with it. That's obsessed. Charles Koch is worth eighty five billion dollars and he stays up at night being like, we really need to get people to live on eleven hundred dollars, not thirteen hundred dollars or nothing.

Right. So this is what's the problem with the American Empire. You're paying. We have an eight hundred and fifty billion dollar defense budget. And look, I'm actually a hawk, right?

When it's necessary, a hawk when it's necessary. But we have an eight hundred fifty billion dollar number. We're paying for everybody. We're paying for every military in the world. That the European elites in Switzerland and in Tuscany, in the south of France and and in Belgravia, in London, they pay almost nothing for military. They're a they're not an ally. They're a protectorate. That's why Trump was so hard about getting them to two percent of GDP. What did they do in the NDAA with no debate? They slipped in a law in the at the last second. That's right.

That restricts Trump from pulling out of NATO or doing any restructure. What's the buried lead? What's the buried lead there, Steve?

They're worried he's going to become president. Oh, that's exactly. Well, no, they're doing structural things. No, that's what I'm saying. Yes.

This is the greatest sign of hope. They're passing all these like preemptive handcuffs. Yes. For Trump, which is like, oh, they shouldn't be doing that. Well, time out, time out, time out, time out. Yes.

Hold on. You're awfully worried that this guy's going to become president again, right? By the way, if you talk to any insider in D.C. and if you were to say, hey, gun to the head, Trump president yes or no, more would say yes than no. Eighty percent. I mean, like so the insiders first off, they know they're more. They know he won in 2020 with 74 million votes. Hold it. It's mathematically impossible for Biden's numbers to be the slow.

If you look at Independencies in the 20s, mathematically impossible for a guy to get 81 million votes. This is one of the reasons they have to stop us, because they understand we're going to be relentless about I love that term. We're going to be relentless about getting to the bottom of the 2020 steel and who's accountable. Right. And also J6, which is a totally inside job. That's right. Look at Clay Higgins. Right. What he's saying.

Clay Higgins, a law enforcement guy. He's been great. He and Laura Logan are, you know, focused on this thing right now.

Yes. But the question gets to be, why haven't we done this beforehand? Here's why. The Republican establishment is still controlled by Wall Street and the giant corporations. They're they're tied to the donors. The thing they fear most is you guys. And they fear an awakened they feel they fear an awakened population. You're an army of the awakened.

Yes. And you guys are essentially the pathfinders. You're the Army Rangers. You're a force recon. You're 10,000 to 20, 25,000 maybe throughout the country that listens to the show, becomes a force multiply on social media networks, et cetera.

And now we have temp with that special forces in an army. These people are becoming awakened every day. African-Americans, Hispanics, neighbors of yours, people that hate Trump and said they voted for Biden or people disagreed with you on mask or vax everything more and more every day are coming to our side. And that's where you are.

The difference of whether we win or not next year is this audience. And we are relentless. Yes. Relentless. And don't back down and have Trump's back. And he knows we have his back.

Yes. We'll win this. I want I want a couple thoughts. Steve and I have this running joke, which is we can't keep ahead of you guys. The audience. I mean, it's just tough. This is not I mean, I these other guys, I don't want to say, you know, these other networks and stuff, they're so disconnected from their audience. Right. They're so disconnected. And that's why it's so boring. Right. I can't watch cable TV. Can you guys watch cable TV anymore?

How many more segments do I have to have? Joe Biden, bad Republican good. That's why I like watching Steve TV for. Right. Exactly.

And, you know, it's Steve getting into financial markets and, you know, it's like really good stuff. And but if I get a date wrong, I'm getting a thousand emails of people right now saying how Charlie this and that and that. And by the way, I love it because the audience, they're on every word. They're educated. They're sending me. They're sending me stories, Steve. And that that it's a two way COVID on the.

Every day, every day, every election. And it's like and they're on this like twenty four seven loop. Yes. But Steve, this is new.

This is not normal in a good way, though. Right. This is all of a sudden an army of the enlightened where the atmospheric awareness of the entire conservative MAGA movement. Well, I would tell you when when Andrew when we were shifting Breitbart, he started this blog to be the site you see today, even in doing that for that year that we took a nine muster to work on it. People were not nearly as awakened.

I mean, it was like, you know, but they were getting there. You can see in the comments you can see in the chat, Rush was the only one that really talked to his audience and would have a two way kind of radio. Right. Yes. To his credit. Yes. He started that whole thing.

He would listen to his audience, but it wasn't enough because a majority of it, even as great as he is, he didn't see the populist aspect, this what they fear the most. And this is why we do so much capital markets and economics on the show. They go out of their way to make sure you can't understand the way the system works. Right. Because if you understood how the system works, you go, this is insanity.

We're not going to continue to do this. You know, fractional banking, the Fed, the Federal Reserve. And you're going to see the Federal Reserve in all its glory. And Yellen is very smart. She ran the Fed. She knows where all these pockets of capital cash are inside the system that they can fuse into liquidity without having to go to quantitative easing again after blowing their balance sheet up. And you already see they're doing the stock market rally right now, particularly in the magnificent seven.

It's all it's all. But guys, let's just go back nine or 10 months to back up Steve here. Silicon Valley bank collapse happened earlier this year.

Yes. And then 90 days to the day, 90 days to the day, the Dow and the S&P were up two and a half percent. How is that possible? It's because Yellen, she quietly started to buy back bonds very quietly. She started to release cash.

She quietly and she never released that the balance sheet was expanding. The Fed expanded their balance sheet. And so here you have bank collapse, bank collapse, bank collapse, signature bank, Silicon Valley Bank. You would think the market would go down after banks are collapsing. Right.

Yes. And what do we have? We have the market going up. So now, year over year, this is funny money. This is sugar high stuff. We got valuations where Microsoft is knocking on the door of a three trillion dollar valuation. Know what they're doing.

Apple sitting with a tree. And but here's where Speaker Johnson comes in. And I and I, Steve, you're he's not tough enough. He's a good man, but he's not tough. I'll be I'm even harder on him than Steve is at times because I want him to start acting like a Christian. I want Speaker Johnson not to say he's a Christian.

So acting like a Christian, stand up against these demons, stand up against these people. You should have never have put Congress to go back home during Thanksgiving. You guys should have worked with Thanksgiving break. They shouldn't be. They should be working right now. They should be working right now, trying to get a deal done on either 702 and the spending cuts and all that. But I think what we're getting at, Steve, is that the American people were begging for an opposition party. We're begging for somebody to stand up against this stuff. Well, I think we are the opposition party. We're now 80 percent of the votes in the Republican Party. You're the Nikki. So here's the Nikki Haley play. You saw today of the CBS poll. She's a twenty nine. No, I don't believe I think that's fake. By the way.

So Rahim did the work. It is definitely it's a it's a it's a bush. It's a brushfire poll to show her some momentum.

Yeah, but she's you understand what that is. That's it's called a donor poll. Yes.

We're immediately within 90 seconds. She sends it to about 500 donors. See, see, see Russia donation by super PAC. Yes.

It's an op for an op to get cash for an op. Democratic donors and guys in Silicon Valley, the play there. They know they can't take Trump down, although they're going to take a shot right in New Hampshire and have an LBJ moment where, you know, she's McCarthy. She comes in, you know, second. And they every tries to get around her.

It's that's not going to work. But the real play is to have her hang out, put enough money in, have her hang out. And then June and July start making the big play that she's V.P. and that then she would run. She would be like the prime minister. Trump could go out to his rallies, do speeches, but she'll run the deal. That's what we have to stop.

But we have to stop. Nikki Haley is the is the is represents the neoliberal, neocon business as usual for old Republican. Did you say you think Trump should pick a woman, though? One hundred percent. No doubt. OK. I don't know if I agree with that. Tell me.

Convince me. I just think I think that I think that it's very important for President Trump to go forward. And I think that we can blunt a lot of the things that are going to come against him from suburban women and others by picking a qualified woman. She has to be qualified.

Kristi Noem, maybe you've got you've got a whole you've got a whole range of people I think would be OK. I just I think it look, don't get me wrong. Some of the people, Tucker and I think Tucker will be president. That's that's where I'm talking.

I'm talking for BP. I think I think I think I think I think Tucker I think Tucker will be president one time or one day. I think there's other good guys. Right. There's there's a number of congressmen. Senator Johnson's an interesting pick. Senator Johnson's a great pick. You've got you've got a deep bench of solid people that ought to be fully vetted. Right.

You got Rick Renaud. You got a whole host of guys that that could do this and should be vetted. I just think it's not that it's going to draw any electoral votes to us, but it balances. And I think some of the women are of high quality.

And so I just think that it'll be a woman. And I think we ought to focus and do thorough vetting and all those that can step in and help President Trump, because here's the thing. And you saw some of the articles about who's going to be in the administration and everything.

They put out a Wall Street Journal, which is a little more conventional with really great people. But President Trump has these policies he's going to implement. But a big focus of his is going to be taken on the deep state.

He's not going to just let this imperial power inside the American government. This is the big fight. This is the big fight. You're trying to take out the Victorian guard.

That's what it is. Exactly. And that's going to be the big fight.

He's going to need somebody could write shotgun with him on that. But I think you've got some very qualified people. And I think we have to vet them all. And like I said, I think Tucker, look, a combination of Trump and Tucker this time, I think would be terrific. Right. I think it'd be terrific.

I just think if we had a woman, it would be a little more balanced. And I do think Tucker is definitely going to run in the future. So my argument with Tucker is I think women love Tucker. He's handsome. He's smart. People say, oh, Charlie, what do you mean? He's he's objectively good looking.

He's on TV. OK. And and I say this with an unblemished record of heterosexuality for the record. That's a George Costanza quote, by the way, just so we're clear. You ever watch Seinfeld, Steve?

Every now and again. It's a joke. If you have any idea of Steve's background, you get the joke. But it's one of my favorite. We owned a taste at one time.

No, I know. It's one of my favorite George Costanza quotes. He says, with an unblemished record of heterosexuality.

I think you look great. So now number two here. So let's game this out. Recent thing. Is Trump going to be a felon? Is he going to be in jail?

If yes, doesn't Tucker kind of throw a wrench in that? Well, hold it. They just said, you know, the polling is political. I had a huge story. Yes, this is a huge deal. This is what this is why they're coming after you and they're coming after Trump, because they know you have Trump's back and now they're petrified. They did. Political came out. This is a crazy story. Even if Trump right now, as it stands, even if Trump is found guilty of these felonies they put up, people don't believe him anymore.

They look at the stuff. They say they're clearly coming after Trump. He would still win after being convicted of a crime. And that's what's got him. And that's what I'm going to read the headline. Is that OK? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So political dot com, which is one of the ruling class, you know, time. And by the way, it's the tip sheet for the elites. Yeah.

And they get some stuff that's super weird. I read it every day, by the way. I love reading it. And I think you do, too. Right.

It's kind of like semaphore, kind of like insider baseball. And so the front page of political dot com all day yesterday is, quote, and I'm pulling it up here, is why Trump's indictment might not save the Biden campaign. Think about that. It's unbelievable. Right. And they changed it here a little bit. But basically, they're they're starting to backpedal, Steve. And they're being like, it's not going to be enough.

You know why? He didn't get a one million votes, right? They stole the election.

They're petrified about us getting in there and finding that out. That's why Trump's it's just mathematics. Look, I know tons of hedge fund guys and people that hate the sound of Trump's name. OK, not one of them believes that Biden won back in 2020, legitimately.

So why a Trump conviction might not save Biden's reelection? That was the original head. No, no, no. I had to take that.

No, they changed that, by the way. What? So now now you admit that the conviction is all about the reelection.

Thanks, Politico. Right. Right. I mean, these people. But no, but Steve, we're putting it all on the table, right? This is 24.

Yeah. I have a fear. I'm just going to be honest.

I get these emails every so often. And I don't like this attitude. I'm never going to vote again, Charlie, because, you know, the system's rigged, all this sort of stuff. How do we balance that? People don't think Biden got 81 million votes. I think we have to. I don't think we've been convincing. I think of anything of get out the vote and obviously the energy that's here to get out the vote. You know, getting 74 million votes and even doing more this time, maybe breaking 80 or going past. Let's break eight if we break 80. But I'm still not.

I'm still. And this is the RNC. And this is why I think you need to immediately take. I think we need to crush the Iran. It's got to go. Got to go. The Iran has got to go. And not just run on, not just run on the entire senior staff's got to go.

The senior staff, by the way, they hold the power. Do you understand in this phony primary that they're running? They'll spend about 750 million dollars on this primary with ads and everything going on. You saw Jeff Rowe got fired last night because, I mean, they raised so much money for DeSantis. Two hundred and eighty six million dollars. Eighty six million dollars.

How's that doing? And not one thing on voter integrity. Not one thing to make sure they can't steal the election. I think the weakest part we have still. And I think we have to convince people. I can understand guys saying, hey, I was there in 16.

I was in 20. I put it on the table and it got stolen and I haven't seen anything that's convinced me otherwise. The state parties, as you know, in Arizona, we're sitting on ground zero. They're broke. They're good people.

They're broke. And that's why I think there's got to be a takeover. I think turning points got to take over the RNC.

I think it has to. Right. We're not. We don't add it to the list, Steve. We don't have time. We don't have time to mess around, do we?

No, it can't be people's feelings are hurt. We're trying to save the college. Just so you know. And Steve, we're going to announce it here. You know, the RNC is going to try to put a hit out on me. But two days before the RNC meeting in Vegas, we're hosting our own RNC meeting called Restoring National Confidence in Vegas at the same hotel. We want you to speak. I'll be there.

Yeah. And it's about restoring that. By the way, this is we have 50 county chairs. We're bringing in all these committee men and we're going to do that.

We're going to do our best. Hold on. What hotel is that? It's at the Paris Paris something or at this place.

They're staying at a high end hotel. We'll stay at the Ahern. No. Yeah, of course. Are you kidding me? Yeah. No.

By the way, why don't you have it at the Trump? It's a great hotel in Vegas, right? I mean, hello. And no casinos. Yeah, that's no gaming. That's right. So but let's build this out here. Right.

Twenty twenty. That's great. That's that's a full heckle from Charlie. Oh no.

By the way, I will not I will not have any friends after that. And when you hold it, I say Charlie's got too much to do. He's doing it. But what about Don Junior to head the RNC? It's a natural. By the way, he's run big business.

It's a plug and play. No, he knows the president. That's that's a great idea. No, I said I think Sean Spicer asked me the other day. I love that I said I said it's Don Junior. He's an entrepreneur. He knows MAGA as well as anybody, right? He's a grassroot. He's incredibly persuasive, right? Incredibly our five kids. And not just that. This guy works like his father. Seven days a week.

He's he's one of the he's a dynamo. And you get Kimberly thrown into the package and he knows Trump. It would be hand in glove.

We don't have time to mess around. No, no, no. This is it.

He gives a plug. This is the whole civilization. And this is what's driving me crazy is that, you know, some people say, but Charlie, you know, Ron is a nice person.

I said, why is nice a criteria for what? What are we talking about here? Is this a church elder board or I mean, are we trying to win back the country? A church elder board would be more brutal.

No, but that's the point. You guys are sad that we're not delivering yet. We're not hitting our marks here at 3rd Presbyterian Sarasota.

You're out. You know, I mean, those are the toughest boards in the world. We've got to get as tough as the church boards. But but Steve, you know, I went down to Dana Point, you know, this and I was pressing flesh.

I was trying to get her meat. I was trying to get run out in the RNC. They don't want it.

You know, a lot of people, the members, they don't want anything to do with it. I was Michael and we got a vote. Michael and Dell got a single vote. A single vote.

God bless Michael and by the way, is he is it the Michael and Dell War Room or is it Bannon's War Room? I can't. Whoa. No, I mean, it's just like every day. I mean, that is a compliment.

I love it. But it's just we had to save it. It's just every day. All right, Mike, how are things going? He was about it's Tuesday.

Tell us. And the next day, I love it when they almost when they leave is single handedly saving that man's company. They're going to put Trump out of business. No, I mean, I mean, if they put look, they're trying to put you in a business, you know, this the hits, if they start putting some of the top people out of business, that's going to chill everybody. Right. And Mike had a patch there that all of a sudden he got de-banked.

They weren't they weren't going to be able to make payroll. So I said, heck with it. No, I love it. I mean, I'm kidding. No, no, no. I think it's amazing. By the way, you know what? I love Steve from Code War Room.

And, you know, the number is eight hundred eight seven three one zero six two. Thanks for the plug. By the way, but only only because Pacific is the most insane. No, no, no. He's he's the professional.

No, the Pacific is out of control. No, no. The guy there could be a huge breaking news event. And out of nowhere, he says, oh, promo code. Don't don't use that promo code. Just so we're clear.

OK, everybody, you go on the Twitter feed, you go, you know, everywhere. No, it's out of control. But let's lay it out. We're going into 24. We got to fix the RNC.

This election integrity thing. Steve, you know, I watched the worst. You know, you got this Professor Clements and you have this new thing.

I don't know if that's public or not, but you had him on the show and you're doing some stuff. Yeah. Well, how do we fix this stuff?

This is not. By the way, if there was something where, you know, Charlie's expertise is limited. I get asked this question all the time. I say, look, this is not my this is not my lane. My lane.

I could diagnose the problem. I'm an action guy. I'm a messaging guy.

Students, churches, all that. When I when all of a sudden gets into this machine stuff and all this, that that's not my forte. But Steve, how do we still how do we fix it? Still not. A total machine, but it's not Clemens's thing, though. Yeah.

Yeah. Here's the machine. I am 100 percent male and male and balance. I can mathematically show you the story. I'm convinced. How do we fix it? OK. Number one, here's how we fix it.

I think we have to be much more aggressive in 16 when we won. Right. And it was forty thousand votes in Pennsylvania. Ten thousand, I think, in Wisconsin. By the margins, the margin was more than that.

But yeah, no, no, no. In 16, we total was seventy two thousand votes. That's amazing. Really?

In three in the northern states. Wow. Because we were not actually focused. But here's what I had. I had lawyers with documents. We were ready to go in right away. I mean, I had him file. I had a ready.

We could have walked in the court in the middle of the night. But in 20, it was just it was a Chinese fire drill. In 20, I'll be brutally frank with President Trump doing what he did and getting seventy four million votes. I thought I did a great job in 16. Sixty three million votes.

I was pretty proud of that. Seventy four million votes shows you how the country came together around Trump's and to lose that. And they lost it because they weren't prepared. They didn't focus on close.

Mark Elias. This is why Raheem and Bill McGinley and on war who went around with the transition integrity project. They told you how they were going to steal it with the mail in ballots and keep counting. And that's why they shut down the county in the middle of night. President Trump, as I recommended, should have stepped up at 10 o'clock when he's like millions of votes everywhere and said, Hey, boom, I won. Right. I won. And then and then you would have taken the moral. It's not that him saying you won means anything. The Associated Press saying you won doesn't mean anything. Right. That's a legal process you have to go through.

But it would give me the moral high ground. So then when they stopped counting in those states, you know exactly why they stopped counting. They stopped counting because they wanted to go after Trump and take the lead. Otherwise, we kind of stumbled around. He went up at two o'clock in the morning, I think. Yeah. And he did say something about it was he kind of fumbled around with it around because then he said, you know what?

I'm not supposed to say it, but I'm going to say it. I think staff around him wouldn't allow it to happen. But hold on.

Let's talk about this November, because I get asked this question all the time. No, I think one number one, you have to get a legal war room. Not true. We have terrific lawyers. Some of the money that's going for some of the things like the seven hundred million dollars that's going to this frickin primary have got to go to get a first class legal team.

And we ought to be in right now in Arizona. I agree. By the way, dropping lawsuits right now.

I mean, going be like ripping people's face off of what happened in twenty two and getting aggressive with top quality lawyers. That's number one. Number two, we have to then flood the zone with people that are there for for, you know, to make sure that we don't have the operational problems we had in Arizona and other places where they want these game day votes right to back up. This is a big thing.

That was a debacle. And this is this is where our turning point action is stepping up, right? You do your job. We have to get that. We have those operations down.

Yeah. And so what we're talking about, Steve, I mean, would you go back in the campaign? I mean, I'm not joking. I mean, because at this point I'm looking around and there's a bunch of money grubbing consultants here. You won in 16. Why wouldn't we bring back the guy that I'm going to break some news here back in 20?

There were some senior donors that wanted me to go in in June of 20 when the BLM thing hit to to to fix everything. Well, because even then, it's going to be a steady hand. Well, not just that is to make sure. Look, like Trump, you win the deal, but then you have to close the deal.

Yes. You know, how many times have you won a deal or have you gotten to a place that you win it, but you don't close and you don't close because the legal and all the other aspects want to close them. We have to close. The third thing I would do right now is on the machines. I would start throwing lawsuits in there on these machines. The Murdoch's didn't do it.

Other people did. And I'm not a machine guy, but I would take David Clements as a lead, get people in back of him in every state and make sure that we get to the bottom of. Remember, the legal warfare here in Cochise County in this state, they just indicted a bunch of people. They indicted two felony counts supervisors. This is this is preemptive strikes. That's what they said. They know what's coming.

So they're playing offense. They indicted two supervisors who said in 22. Hey, look, in one of the most conservative counties here in Arizona on the border. And what they said is that, hey, I'm not sure our votes were really officially counted because of what happened in Maricopa County, right? We want a review of what happened in Maricopa County before we certify what happened here. Those two individuals have two felonies. And even if they get off, which they will, it'll take them years and it'll take them a million dollars each to try to bank. And they're going to go to Mojave County, too. They're doing this. That's what the electors they're suing the electors. So we have to get in. The campaign is so, you know, overwhelmed right now, not with President Trump just running right and winning in these states, but also all of his legal. Remember, that's a weapon they use for opportunity costs and for money.

His legal bill is going to be hundreds of millions of dollars. So we have to independently do that. I think that's why coming out of here the next couple of days, the task force coming out of here, it's got to be coming out of out of out of. But if I'm hearing you, Steve, and I'll be honest, I mean, I don't know if we have. Do we have the generals to go win the war in 24? We have the guy. We have Trump. But do we have the actual lieutenant? I think you've got some pretty good lawyers if they were unleashed.

Look, one thing that should be obvious to everybody. What's happened over the last 90 days on Trump's legal is quite different. He's brought in some more guys. Mike Davis and some others are working with finally getting Will Sharf is great.

Sharp. You've gotten some. He's he's really smart lawyers in here.

And you've noticed President Trump right now. The whole J six thing happening on March 4th is not happening, thankfully. Right. That's that's a huge win, everybody.

I can't tell you. Well, they've also won on the 14th Amendment everywhere, right? Even Colorado, right? I mean, that's still a sale. It's still still a thing.

Still a thing. But this shows you how they're trying to stop Trump, even the 14th Amendment. But he's had some big reversals.

He's had some winning appeals. He's doing the gag order. The thing in New York's out of control. And that's gonna be terrible news for President Trump.

Oh, you think it's gonna end up? Yeah, because the guys there's no control in New York. You have literally you have a Nazi judge. You have like the Moscow show trial.

It's what Arthur Kessler darkness. It is darkness in new and you can't appeal. The appellate court there is just as bad as this guy in the Supreme Court. There's just as bad. New York is a is a state that's been totally taken. That's why I think businesses are gonna start moving out of New York. Literally the same. We can just take. It's like Moscow, right? We can just take your We can just take your property.

So President Trump has gotten, I think, a rejuvenation with this legal team over the last 90 days. And I think you're starting to see it. But that's the quality of people.

They're out there. Remember, the number one weapon they use against you guys is fear. They if you step up, you're gonna be othered, right? You're gonna get thrown at your clubs.

They're gonna make sure your employees don't hire you or get rid of you. This is why O'Keefe had that thing with the with the Presbyterian pastor. That thing was at Northwestern University, and he's given this. Oh, this is a great dialogue.

This about about fear not, you know, keeps talking and people raising hands, taking questions. He said, Look, I'm scared. And the guy said, Look, I'm 42 years old. I got a wife and a couple of kids. I've got an okay job. But if I step out of line, I'm gone.

Right? And at 42 years old, I'm not gonna get this kind of job again. They will. They will literally take my career away. That is a legitimate fear that that is how that is how they're trying to suppress this populist revolt because they understand they can't sell what they have. So they have to put fear in you. And that is for the leaders of this have got to push through. And that's why Trump and Mike Lindell and people like that and even Rudy right and others where they're trying to crush her at the front line, we somehow have to figure out how to have their back. But this is the other. This is exactly right, which is you. People ask all the time, Charlie, how do you weaken the bad guys? One of the ways you weaken the bad guys is you pick their targets that they want you to think of as toxic and you do the opposite. Right?

Mike Lindell, Owen Schmoyer. We got this Chewbacca guy running around the event, the QAnon shaman or whatever. I don't know. And, you know, people use candidate.

He's a candidate for God bless him. He's not behaving great. But people say, Charlie, come out. I said, You know what? You know what? I don't want to come out because his presence here is a middle finger to the regime that tried to put every one of these guys in federal prison.

Right? And, you know, we're gonna work on decorum. But you know what? He was in federal prison. Okay, if I was in federal prison, I would be a little wacky. He's a shaman.

He's doing shaman stuff. No, it's really. But I love it.

The reason I love it. And then this is the message to be sent. You come after ours. We're going to punch back twice as hard, right?

This is important. You bring a knife. We're gonna bring a gun, right? Yeah, but we are an army of the awakened and you are the vanguard of that. You are absolutely directly linked to those folks that did the Boston Tea Party. If they came back today, they would be absolutely shocked and ashamed what's happened to this country. But they would 100% if they came here to support you 1000%.

That's the thing. If you take anything away from that, just remember, you're part of a revolutionary generation that has always opposed tyranny. And as opposed tyranny, the East India Company was a monopoly, one of the most powerful companies in the world. The British aristocracy is one of those powerful rural families.

And, you know, the associated aristocrats landed aristocracy. Our country, which are still relatively small time, gave him the middle finger and said, Hey, no way. We're out and we'll fight an eight year revolution. We'll fight a war for eight years, losing most of the time, right? Because we're not going to quit. And that's what the established order hates about you guys.

They understand you're not going to quit. And this is why what's their number one target now? It's not even Trump. It's Christian. No, that this is right. Christian nationalism.

Remember, Tim Alberta said it. These are Christians who love their country too much. The Atlantic regime spokesperson for religion, whose father was a pastor. He says he says they love their country too much. And the reason they love their country too much.

They have too much patriotism because they think America is a covenant country. Yes. Right. In the New Jerusalem. I go, OK, that's a recruiting thing.

I'm in. Right. Why do you think they were called pilgrims? Exactly.

Because they were making a pilgrimage to New Israel. This is what they're coming after next. And they're coming after not Trump, because I think we safely say President Trump is many things. He's not a Christian nationalist.

You guys are right. But he does. That's the power of Trump. Trump is providential.

Trump is King Cyrus. He is an instrument of God. Right. Not that he's the holiest guy I've ever met. He's not particularly churchy.

He's a good man. Think about it for a second. Think about a second. I call him the American Cincinnatus. Yeah. Cincinnatus. They say that he is Caesar, and therefore it is appropriate that Brutus and the others assassinate him. Right.

I say Cincinnatus, which is this legendary Roman general who was old and retired and came back from his plow to save Rome again and went back. If Trump had just stayed in Mar-a-Lago, they wouldn't have touched his business. He had his family.

He bought more golf courses. It's because he came back to do this again when all the polls are against him. Remember, Fox News is going for DeSantis. And his heroism is because he understood, you make that move, bro, they are going to destroy you. That's why he's got 700 years in a federal prison. That's why they're trying to take his business in New York. This is why every time he comes around, he's a fascist.

They're trying to take him off the ballot. He understood that this was going to happen. There's never been, this is almost rare, in a nation of heroes, this is heroism at a huge level. That's why for only the third time in this republic, only the third time, the fate of one individual is completely inextricably linked with the fate of the republic. General Washington and the revolution and particularly his presidency and walking away from it, building a nation when it had all this disparate things that everybody had a different deal, he did that for 16 years. Lincoln and Trump.

Not FDR, not Kennedy, not Reagan. The fate of one individual is absolutely the fate of this republic. And he's built a movement that is the broadest and the most revolutionary movement we've had in this country since what happened before a revolution. And it will outlive him. And that's what terrifies them.

Big time. This event, 13,000 people, multiple generations, most students ever at a turning point event will outlive him. Steve Bannon, everybody. That was excellent. Thank you. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless.
