Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Cooner. Contrary. Okay, a lot of news took
place over this weekend. Believe me, As I pointed out
on X last night, there has been again an explosion
of left wing violence, this time striking very close to home,
(00:20):
just forty five miles north of Boston, in Nashaua and
New Hampshire. I promise I'm going to cover that and
everything else. But without question, the story of the hour,
the story of the moment, the story of the entire world,
is Yesterday's moving, powerful, compassionate, almost unbelievable memorial for Charlie Kirk.
(00:47):
Just an absolutely incredible event. Hundreds of thousands of people
showed up. They were packed to the rafters in Glendale, Arizona,
at a stadium where the Cardinals usually play the Arizona
football team, the NFL team. There were people waiting, a
(01:10):
stream of people outside who couldn't get in. There was
not one seat available inside. America was mourning the passing
of a great man, a great patriot, a great father,
a great husband, a great American and President Trump, I thought,
(01:33):
delivered one of the best speeches of his entire career,
and I'm going to get to him. I promise the
other thing that happened. Again, the Lord moves in very
mysterious ways, and Charlie Kirk's influence continues to be felt,
his powerful, unifying influence. Elon Musk showed up at the
(01:54):
memorial service and he sat down with President Trump. They
shook hands. It appeared that they had buried the hatchet
and made up in the name of Charlie Kirk. That's
what Charlie would have wanted. He would not have wanted
them fighting or divided or attacking each other. He would
(02:15):
want them to work together and unify for the good
of the country. And that's what his memorial service dead did. So,
even in death, Charlie Kirk continues to work miracles now.
As for the actual memorial service itself, it was a tribute,
an incredible, powerful, moving tribute to an American martyr, as
(02:40):
Trump put it, a martyr for freedom, a martyr for
free speech, a martyr ultimately for America, and to me,
the person that stole the show. And there were something
There were just some really really good speeches. I mean
I'm talking absolutely incredible speeches, but the one that just
(03:05):
went to another dimension and I think will live on
and reverberate for years to come. Is the speech delivered
by Charlie's wife, Erica Kirk. I want you to listen
to her now. She could at times barely move emotion
(03:27):
that overcome her. You could see the pain on her face.
She has lost her young, thirty one year old husband.
They have two very young children. They are now going
to be raised without a father. She now has lost
her husband and the great love of her life. President
(03:49):
Trump held her, hugged her, comforted her, helped her onto
the stage, and then she delivered one of the most
powerful eulogies and speeches honestly I've ever heard. And she
shocked the country, and she shocked the world with her message.
(04:12):
Listen now to Erica Kirk talking about her late husband,
Charlie Kirk Roll cut one a Mike.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Charlie passionately wanted to reach and save the lost boys
of the West, the young men who feel like they
have no direction, no purpose, no faith, and no reason
to live. The men wasting their lives on distractions, and
the men consumed with resentment, anger and hate. Charlie wanted
(04:50):
to help them. He wanted them to have a home
with Turning Point, USA. And when he went on to campus.
He was looking to sh show them a better path
and a better life that.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Was right there for the taking.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
He wanted to show them that.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
My husband, Charlie, he wanted to save.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Young men, just like the one who took his life,
you know.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
And then, of course I'm going to play the next cut,
which is really they're the words heard around the world.
But just before I do, I have to say this.
I have several nephews. One is nineteen, the other one
is twenty three. I have a son, as you know, Ashton,
(05:48):
who is now fifteen. All three of them, although different,
you know, different in age and different in stages of
their life, have told me that they watched clips of
Charlie Kirk, they used to follow him before he was assassinated,
and that he struck a deep chord with them, all
three of them, and it wasn't so much his political message,
(06:11):
although they were agreed with him politically obviously, but what
they said was dad or uncle, he gave us purpose,
He gave us meaning, he gave us direction. He was
almost teaching us how to be a young man, to
(06:34):
go out and get a trade. That you don't have
to go to college to get a degree. You don't
have to go to college to provide for your family.
That you should go out and get married, That you
should have a family, that you should have children, That
you should go to church on Sunday, That you should
(06:55):
direct your life for God and country and family, and
that doing those things is what truly gives you purpose
and meaning life. And also it's what makes you a man.
That that's what men are supposed to do. And so
he truly spoke to the younger generation and resonated with
(07:20):
them in a way that no other American in my
lifetime can compare to. And he preached nonviolence. By the way.
Now people are combing through everything he's written, literally every clip,
(07:41):
everything he said, every debate. They're going back ten years
and they cannot find a single racist thing or word
that he said. Despite all the lies and smears that
the media and the Democrats have been throwing at him.
(08:04):
Everything is either taken out of context, snippets, just carve
out two words and pull it out and you don't
give the first part of the sentence or the second
part of the sentence, so you can completely invert its meaning,
or literally they just invented fabricated stuff that he said
that he never said. He believed in peace. He believed
(08:31):
in dignity and equality of liberty and under law for
every person in America, regardless of their skin color, regardless
of their gender, regardless of their sex, regardless of their
religious faith. And above all, he believed in free speech
(08:52):
and open civil peaceful discourse, dialogue, and debate. And ultimately
was his words that got him killed. It was his
words because the Left could not handle the truth, and
they could not handle that he spoke the truth in
(09:14):
their bastions of indoctrination and brainwashing, and so he posed
a threat to their power, and that's why they killed him.
And you would think that Erica Kirk, having now lost
not just her husband, but the father of her two
very young children. Her children will never see their father,
(09:38):
They will never see their father again. Ever, you would
think she would be angry, and I wouldn't blame her bitter.
I wouldn't blame her revengeful. I wouldn't blame her. I
really wouldn't. But instead, listen to what she said, roll
(10:02):
cut one p Mike, that.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Young man, that young man on the cross, our Savior said, Father, forgive.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Them for they.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Not know what they do. That man, that young man,
I forgive him.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
And it went on. The applause just went on. It
just went on and on and on. She forgave Tyler Robinson,
with tears streaming down her face, she forgave the very
man who murdered her husband. Six one seven two six,
(10:59):
six sixty eight. Sixty eight is the number, okay. As
I stated in my opening monologue, the memorial for Charlie
Kirk yesterday was an absolute phenomenon. And apparently two some
say even three hundred thousand people showed up for it
in Phoenix, and around about seventy thousand were inside the stadium.
(11:26):
Millions watched online and of course on television. I was
watching it on Fox News on and then later we
went back and forth with Fox and with Newsmax, so
I was watching it on those two channels just to
hear some commentary back and forth, but primarily on Newsmax
and obviously on Fox. And look, this is just the beginning.
(11:50):
I think of the consequences of Kirk's political murder, his
ruthless assassination by the shooter by Tyler Robinson, And to me,
I think what is going to be remembered among many things, obviously,
but that Erica Kirk forgave the killer. Now, it doesn't
(12:15):
mean she doesn't want justice. It doesn't mean that she
doesn't think he should be given either life in prison
or the death penalty. But what she's saying is she
doesn't hate him. She doesn't hate him. And as she
clearly laid out in her speech, and I'm going to
play the cut, no violence, please. She kept saying that
(12:37):
over and over again. No violence, no retribution, no rioting,
no chaos, no attacking the other side. That that's not
what Charlie was about. That's not what Charlie wanted. That's
not what we should do. And again, I'm sorry, I'm
(13:00):
not as good as she is. I'm just not. I'm
sorry I'm not. And I'm not as forgiving as she is.
I wish I was, but I'm not. To the left,
to the Dems, to the moonbaths. So that stadium memorial
(13:20):
that we saw yesterday, that was a stadium full of
nazis now, according to you, people crying and mourning the
death of an innocent man and calling for peace and
calling for forgiveness and calling for love and calling for compassion,
(13:41):
and calling for freedom and a restoration of our fundamental
freedoms and liberties. And to you whack jobs out there,
to you on the left, to you, this is a
Hitler rally, a Nazi rally. You people are crazy. I'm
telling you to your face you are You're insane, You're sick.
(14:08):
I want to play it again. This is a woman
who has lost the love of her life, her husband,
who was gonned down simply for speaking the truth, simply
(14:30):
for his words and opinions on a college campus, who's
two young babies, Her two young children now will never
know their father, will never have their father ever again.
(14:51):
And this was her response. This was her response. And remember,
in the wake of millions of leftists, millions of Democrats,
millions of so called progressives, the bills in Sudbury openly celebrating,
(15:13):
boasting his murder, in fact, saying, let's do more, don't
stop keep going. The only good maga is a dead maga.
And this was her response. Roll cut one, Mike.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Father, forgive them for they not know what they do.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
That man, that young man, I forgive him.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
And he just went on, by the way, we're just
we're just cutting it off, because it just went on
and on and on. The applause. And this is your
Hitler rally. This is your rally full of fascists and
authoritarians and racists and bigots and white supremacists. And and
by the way, she's completely right, she really is on
(16:49):
every level. She's completely right. That is is what Jesus
would does call us to do. To turn the other cheek,
to forgive. It doesn't mean there's no justice, doesn't mean
you don't punish. But you don't have hatred in your heart,
and you don't call for hatred against others, and you
(17:12):
don't call for retribution against others and for violence against others.
In other words, you do the exact opposite of what
the left does. I'm sorry someone has to say it,
so I'm going to say it now. Let me be
brutally honest with all of you, like I'm in the confessional.
(17:36):
If someone took away I can only use this parallel.
If someone took away my wife in a brutal political assassination.
And I'm thinking, now, let's say go back ten years
or whatever, when my children were very young. I don't
know if I could have forgiven the shooter. I don't
(17:56):
think I could have to be honest, No, I know
I should. I know that, but I don't think I
could do it. Honestly, I don't, and so I want
to ask all of you for me. This is the
question of the hour and maybe the question now of
(18:20):
our time. It is the Kooner country Pole Question of
the Day sponsored by Marios Mario's Quality Roofing, Siding and Windows.
Could you forgive the murderer the killer of your spouse
(18:43):
or loved one? Okay, let me ask you. It's the
Cooner country Pole Question of the Day sponsored by Mario's
Mario's Quality Roofing, Siding and Windows. Erica Kirk did it
yesterday at her memorial at the memorial service for Charlie Kirk.
It was unbelievably powerful. Its reverberations are literally still being
(19:07):
felt by people all over the world. She forgave the murderer,
the shooter, the killer of her husband, in fact, saying
he was a troubled young man, exactly the kind of
troubled young man that Charlie wanted to reach out to
and have a dialogue with and have a discussion with.
(19:28):
And she said, you know, as Jesus famously said on
the Cross, Father, forgive them, for they know not what
they do. And she said she looked into her deep
spiritual recesses, deep into her heart, deep into her soul,
and doing what Jesus asks us all to do, she
(19:49):
forgave her shooter and her killer. I'm sorry, Charlie Kirk's
shooter and killer, the shooter and the killer of her husband,
her late husband. And so what I want to ask
call of you? Would you be able to forgive the
murderer of your loved one the way Erica Kirk did
(20:11):
for Tyler Robinson A yes, B no. You can vote
on our web page WRKO dot com slash cooner wrko
dot com slash cooner. Kuh And is in national Er.
(20:32):
You can also vote via X again. I was very
active on X last night. My handle all one word
at the Coooner Report. K uh And is in national
Er at the Coooner Report. If I had to vote honestly, no,
(20:53):
I think it's incredible. I think it's remarkable. I think
it's unbelievable. It shows an unbelievable strength and virtue of
character for people like Erica Kirk, who can do it,
who can be A yes? But I'm being honest. If
this was my wife and you know my children were
(21:14):
as well as young as say those children are, let's
say ten years ago. No, no, I know me would
I would not be able to forgive the killer. I
just couldn't do it. But that's me. I want to
hear from you obviously. Six one seven two six six
sixty eight sixty eight. Okay, did you watch the memorial service?
(21:35):
What did you make of the memorial service? Did it
do justice to Charlie Kirk's memory and legacy? And the
ultimate question, the pole question, what do you make of
Erica Kirk's message of forgiveness she forgave Charlie Kirk's killer?
(21:56):
Could you six seven sixty eight sixty eight. Let's go
to Mark in Medford. Thanks for holding Mark and welcome.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
Good morning, Jeff. Yes, I did watch that yesterday. I
have to admit though, I did watch a little of
the Patriots, but they suck so bad that I just said,
you know what, I'd rather watch Charlie Crook tribute yesterday.
But I have to say I'm with you. I'm not
a vengeful person. I don't seek revenge.
Speaker 5 (22:30):
I'm not violent, but the one thing I am for
some certain things, Jeff, I'm not as forgiving as Erica Kirk,
and apparently neither was Donald Trump. Yesterday when he spoke,
he said, I don't know how she's doing it. He goes,
but I can't do it, and I'm not gonna do it.
And I agree with him. I agree with you.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
But I noticed one thing yesterday, Jeff, and I have
to point this out. It's amazing how we come together
for the love of somebody and to pay tributes to somebody.
But the other side, the only it seems like the
only way they come together is when they hate somebody
and they want to kill them, or they want to
(23:08):
bad moute them, or they want to they want to
embarrass them or tear their family apart. That's the only
time the left comes together.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
Have you noticed that?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Jeff, You're dead on, You're You're absolutely dead on. And Mark,
I promise I'm going to give you the last word.
But I got to mention this at least now. I
was going to talk about it later in the show.
I couldn't believe the resolution in the House. Ninety six
Democrats almost one hundred Democrats voted against a resolution honoring
(23:43):
Charlie Kirk, and by the way, it also condemned political violence,
and they well, they couldn't, they could not vote for that.
They hate Charlie Kirk that much. They literally couldn't say, no,
we were going to honor him, and basically, you shouldn't
kill him. We know we shouldn't be we shouldn't kill
(24:04):
each other if we disagree with each other. And AOC,
which to me, will haunt her for the rest of
her career and the rest of her life. AOC led
the charge against the resolution. And just so that you know, Mark,
there was a Minnesota state lawmaker I had briefly touched
(24:25):
on it on this show, Melissa Hortman, who was murdered
maybe about a month ago. Okay, she was a Minnesota
state rep. When they introduced a resolution in the Minnesota
State House to honor her. She was a Democrat, a liberal,
very left wing Democrat, and to honor her and say
we honor her and we condemned political violence of any kind.
(24:49):
Every single Republican joined, every Democrat. So you see, when
a liberal gets gunned down, Republicans condemn it across the board.
When a conservative icon gets brutally murdered, they can't even
(25:10):
condemn it. In the House of Representatives. In Congress. Mark,
that's how consumed with hate they are. Final word to you, Well.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Jeff, I hate to say it, but it seems to
me that you mentioned that they want.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Us dead and they can give two craps about us.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
They want us dead. But you know what, Jeff, It's
okay because I heard a staggering number yesterday during that tribute,
like when they do the little excerptions in between speakers,
and I heard that over they've gotten over sixty thousand requests.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
From high school students and college students all over this
country to start their own chapters of TPUSA. And if
that happens, you're talking millions and millions of high school
kids in college kids that are not going to vote.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
For the Democrats. And Damren some deep doo doo.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Amen, you nailed at Mark as usual. Mark, thank you
very much for that call. And by the way, there
are now millions over the last eleven days since the
assassination of Kirk and just the horrific reaction and response
by these Democrats, the callousness, the stupidity, the hatefulness, just anyway,
(26:38):
the sickening response. Millions now are registering as Republicans, literally
millions so and after Erica Kirk yesterday forgave her husband's
shooter and murderer in such a powerful, compassionate and with
(26:58):
such grace, but in the way that she delivered it,
the left has lost the country. I'm telling you, the
left has lost the country. I mean, they're coming across
as absolute monsters, and I think ultimately this is unmasking
who they are, truly, who they are deep down in
(27:21):
their souls. The hate, the bile, the poison, the ideological fanaticism,
the whole the evil, the sort of the evil political
nature of everything that they're about. I think Mark nailed it.
They only unite in hatred against an individual, or against
(27:45):
the cause, or against the family or whatever. Erica Kirk
steals the show six nine on the Great WRKO Jeff
Cooner Boston's bulldozer six seven two six six sixty eight
sixty eight is the number, Okay, As many are pointing out,
(28:06):
believe me, I'm not original in this. She almost had
an impossible task yesterday to meet the moment. It was
a religious event primarily, not a political event, although it
did get political at times, and seventy thousand people were
inside the stadium. It was packed literally every seat was taken,
(28:27):
there were hundreds of thousands outside of the stadium. Millions
and millions watched on television, many millions more watched around
the world. And Erica Trump stole the show. There's no
other way to say it. Her speech was beyond powerful intellectually, emotionally,
(28:48):
her delivery was perfect. And she has a gift. I'm
telling you, this woman has a gift. And I'm looking
at her and I'm I'm like, it's almost like another
Charlie Kirk. She's talking. It's you know, in theory, it's
the seventy thousand people in the stadium, but she has
(29:10):
the ability to make you feel like she's talking directly
to you, one on one, and Charlie Kirk had that
same ability. She's able to connect with people, she's able
to resonate with people. She's got an incredibly attractive personality,
a radio personality that just radiates light and goodness and decency.
(29:36):
And you know, I don't even want to go down
this road. I don't, but it's just got to be said.
A I think she's the perfect person to be leading
Turning Point USA now. But I could definitely see her,
you know, people said Charlie Kirk would be president one
day or minimum vice president, that he had an incredible
(29:58):
career ahead of him. I was watching her and I'm
like this woman, because this woman could be president of
the United States one day. Now I know she's got
two very young children now without a father, which makes
it even much harder. So she's going to have a
lot of balls to juggle. This is going to be
(30:19):
a lot. She's got to run this massive organization which
is clearly now on a mission that is growing exponentially. Campuses,
high schools now, thousands and thousands want chapters set up
all over all over the country and cities and towns.
You're looking at millions and millions of new people now
(30:40):
pouring into Turning Point, USA. She's also the chairman of
the board, so she's she's really taking the reins from
Charlie Kirk. But I could see Erica Kirk become a
powerful political leader in the mere future. That was I mean,
she met them and then some just very quick. As
(31:03):
the lines are jammed, listen now to Erica Kirk describing
when she had to identify Charlie Kirk's body at the Morgue.
There wasn't a dry eye in the house roll cut
to Mike.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
I also saw on his lips.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
The faintest smile, and that told me something important. It
revealed to me a great mercy from God in this tragedy.
When I saw that, it told me Charlie didn't suffer.
Even the doctor told me. There was something so instant
(31:52):
that even even if Charlie had been shot in the
operating room, it's itself.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Nothing could have been done. There was no fane, there
was no fear, no agony.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
One moment, Charlie was doing what he loved, arguing and
debating on campus.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Fighting for the Gospel and truth in.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
Front of a big crowd, and then he blinked, he blanked,
and saw his Savior in paradise.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
I got choked up. I mean when I saw that
and I heard that, and I have to say this.
I almost feel selfish for saying this. So again, if
it comes across that way, please forgive me, because it's
not my intention. But it comforted me. She's the widow,
for God's sake. The one who needs comforting is her
and her children and her family. So but the fact
(32:53):
that when she said he didn't feel any pain, there
was no agony, There was no fear.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
You know.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
That's kind of been bothering me for the last ten
eleven days, is you know, was he alive for a
couple of hours, you know, because he still you know, technically,
wasn't you know, killed on the spot. They rushed him
to the hospital, and they say even for a while
they thought they had stabilized them. There was even this
saying there was even maybe a possibility could pull through it.
And then of course he died on the operating table.
(33:22):
And so part of what's haunted me and bothered me
is I'm like, please, please, God, please tell me he
didn't suffer. He he didn't deserve that. And to be
thinking this is what I was thinking, you know, to
be thinking that this man is you know, my wife,
my children, my family, my parents, my siblings. You know,
(33:42):
I won't even get a chance to say goodbye to them,
say I love them, you know, as you're fighting for
your life and asking yourself like what did I do
to deserve this? Like what did I do? I just
had just sat there and said, let's debate, let's have
a discussion. Let's have a talk. That's all I said.
And I give you the microphone and you can say
anything you want to say. And so when she said
(34:07):
he never suffered at all, it was like a blink.
And then he was with his you know, with God,
with his Savior in paradise, with Jesus in paradise in heaven.
I don't know. It really comforted me, and I was like, good, good, good. Anyway,
I'm just giving you my honest reaction. Six one seven
(34:30):
two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number.
Let's go to Dave, our Western PA constitutionalist correspondent right
there near the Pittsburgh area. Dave, thanks for holding and
as always, welcome.
Speaker 8 (34:48):
Good morning, Jeff. I'll tell you, Jeff, I got nothing
but the utmost respect and love for missus Kirk and
demoxy to do what she did to forgive him. Jeff
and Jeff, by this want to clarify some I don't
know if you made this in your opening monologue. I
missed a little bit of it. But yet the left
wing needs to understand well because you know, they can't
comprehend much like the Bills and Sudbury. They're dumber than
(35:10):
the pile of rocks that may Kamala Harris looks mot
God forbid Jeff just because she forgave him, doesn't mean
he's still knock in the face the death penalty, Jeff.
A lot of liberals say, oh, well, she forgave him
and all the kissy gutsy time. No, he's still going
to be he's still less to pay with his life.
Because since we're talking Bible, Jeff and God and Jesus, Yes,
(35:32):
so what my savior Genesis ninety six makes it very
clear and the the Old Testament that we were created
in the image of our Lord God, our creator, and
that he requires our blood. Whoever setteth man's blood, the
King James version, whoever seteth man's blood, his blood will
be required because God made man in his image, period,
plain and simple.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Oh David, you're a death not one hundred, you're not
even a thousand, You're a million percent correct, You're right.
The fact that she forgave him, that's a personal act
on her part, as you put it, an incredibly noble
I mean, just a very virtuous, compassionate act really of
Christian grace and forgiveness and humility. But that's nothing to
(36:13):
do with the trial. That has nothing to do you know.
That's that's the state, that's government, that's public that's something different,
and you cannot allow someone like him to roam free.
You can't. That's a very dangerous man. Tyler Robinson is
an incredibly dangerous man. And to me, what he did
(36:37):
was beyond publicly now unforgivable, unforgivable. That was an attack
on free speech, that was an attack on the Bill
of Rights. That was literally, Look, I'm going to play
the cut because she talks about and I'll play it
just a little bit later, Dave, where she says, thank
(36:58):
you that no one went out and committed violence after
Charlie's death. Nobody shot somebody, nobody rioted. There was none
of that, she said, thank you. What Tyler Robinson did
could have sparked a civil war, like let's be honest
among ourselves, or at a bare minimum, it could have
(37:18):
sparked a lot more political violence, more assassinations, riots, looting, burning,
people getting maimed, people getting injured, people getting killed. He
could have unleashed the bloodbath what he did. I'm sorry,
you cannot tolerate that in any civilized society. And then
(37:41):
they say, well, okay, keep him behind bars for life.
So what he then becomes like a rallying symbol from
many on the radical left, because that's what they're going
to see him as he's already being celebrated in quarters
of the left as a folk hero like Luigi Mangioni,
the guy who shot that healthcare CEO. So I know,
(38:05):
if you want to end political violence and save lives,
you have to make an example of someone like him.
You're gonna go and you're gonna get the death penalty.
And whether it's by lethal injection or the firing squad,
because they have both in Utah, I don't care. But
it's got to be swift, it's got to be decisive,
(38:29):
and it has to be seen that this will be
your fate if you do this again. And so I'm
with you all the way, Dave. In terms of the
memorial service itself, what did you think of it?
Speaker 8 (38:48):
And President Trump? You know, he was his typical self.
I love it, But you know, Jeff, in forgiveness, I
believe in forgiveness to is Christian and now so it
took my family member, Jeff, I do. I believe in vengeance,
and if or n if somebody ever hurt my wife
with somebody I loved, I'd have to go find him, Jeff,
because I don't trust law enforcement. I mean, not all
(39:08):
of them are bad. But I'm just saying, Jeff, I
wouldn't want him to find him myself, because that's the
marine and me.
Speaker 7 (39:14):
You know what I mean, Jeff, No, I hear.
Speaker 1 (39:16):
Look you're in the overwhelming majority. Dave. Look look again,
I'm not a tough I'm not you.
Speaker 4 (39:21):
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
Seriously, Dave, you're a tough guy. You're a marine. You served,
you took bullets for this country. Okay, I never did,
so please, I can't shine your shoes, okay when it
comes to toughness and courage. But I'm just being honest.
If someone killed my wife, especially when we had two
young children, but even now, I'd want to hunt them down.
(39:46):
I mean, Sarah, come on, of course, my I'll never
be the same, My children will never be the same.
What that is an incalculable loss. It's immeasurable. So yeah, no,
I would listen, I would want revenge, you know. I mean,
at a bare minimum, I'd be like, you know, catch him,
(40:08):
and I want the death penalty. So no, what she
did is absolutely remarkable. And that's a remarkable woman because
she was married to a remarkable man. Dave thank you
so much for that call. I really appreciate it. Six
one said, you can tell her faith. That's not just
(40:28):
window dressing. It's not a show, it's not an act.
She really has imbibed. You know, she's taken, as they say,
she's taken Jesus into her heart. She really you can
see that that. You know, they they live their Christian faith,
They breathe their Christian faith. They take in their Christian faith.
(40:52):
They try to make it animate everything that they do.
And again, she's like a beacon of light in the darkness.
Six one said, look, really, I've never said this before.
Whenever there's a group of speakers and Donald Trump is there,
Trump always steals the show. And don't get me wrong,
I thought his speech was very strong, really compelling. I
(41:17):
thought he made brilliant points. And I love the fact
that he was very honest. You know, he said, look,
what she just said is remarkable. He goes, I'm not
as forgiving. I can't be as forgiving. You know, he
was honest. He goes, No, I'm sorry, I can't forgive
him for what he did. I can't God forgive me,
but I can't do it. And so I thought that
(41:38):
was also very because he kind of spoke for a
lot of us when he said that. I'm like, I'm
with you, mister President. I'm the same, so please, I'm
not saying the speech was bad. Quite the contrary. I
thought it was a great speech. But she just stole
the show. You know, she did almost the impossible. It's
an impossible moment to meet and she met it. That
(42:01):
to me is what was incredible about her speech. People
will be talking about her speech for years to come.
Six agreed, disagree. I'm just giving you my honest take
six one seven two six, six, sixty eight, sixty eight.
In fact, very quickly, very quickly, here's what she said
(42:22):
about God's mercy and what Charlie Kirk would have wanted
in the wake of his assassination. Again, think of this,
what her words now compare to all the lies the
Democrats and the media have been throwing at Charlie Kirk
and saying about him hitler, fascist, racist, bigot, hate speech.
(42:48):
It was a hater, It.
Speaker 6 (42:50):
Was a hater.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
Listen to what she said. This is Erica Kirk roll
cut four, Mike.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
But most of all, God's mercy and God's love have
been revealed to me.
Speaker 3 (43:05):
These past ten days.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
After Charlie's assassination, we didn't see violence, we didn't see rioting.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
And what's most telling iss not just her beautiful words
and moving in powerful words. Look at the reaction from
the audience, remember okay, to show you how sick and
demented they are. What liberals are telling you, what the
media is telling you, what the Dems are telling you,
is that this was a Hitler rally, a rally of
(43:44):
fascists and white supremacists. And when she says that there
was no riots, that there was no violence, that everything
was peaceful, And the reaction to Charlie Kirk's death from
conservatives and people who admired Charlie and everybody starts clapping, standing, standing, ovation, clapping.
(44:08):
Their lies were exposed and their narrative was destroyed for
the entire world to see. I said it earlier. I'm
going to say it again. The left has lost the country.
Agree disagree, Rob in New Hampshire, Thanks for holding Rob,
(44:33):
and welcome.
Speaker 7 (44:35):
You couldn't morning, Jeff, Hi, Rob boy. I went through
two travel packs of Kleenex watching that yesterday. That was
the most moving thing I think I've ever seen. But anyways,
I listened while I travel around to the left wing
(45:00):
one of the left wing satellite shows in little bits,
because I my head will explode if it's too big
a chunk. But also the mainstream media, I have not
seen or heard one raquels trunk one remorseful, uh one
(45:25):
liberal denouncing not even the since the trainees have killed
so many people and caused so much violence, which isn't
getting reported recorded as tranny violence, Yeah, it is a
It is a national problem. There is a category of
(45:45):
people out there causing us violence and the trainees are
it and not one of them has stepped forward and
say we got to stop this garbage. This isn't what
we're all about. I mean, CNN and MSNBC would put
them on TV in a heartbeat if one of them
wanted to step forward. They haven't. They're not asking for forgiveness,
(46:11):
they're not asking for uh their own people to chill out.
It's astounding to me, But that's.
Speaker 1 (46:24):
No rob look that to me. And I'm so happy
you called. I really am, because you're saying and you
have the guts to say what so many around the
country are thinking. They they haven't missed a beat. They're
not reflecting at all one single bit. They just keep going.
(46:45):
So I just so that you know, Rachel Maddow is
I like to call her Rachel mad Cow went on
the air, and they're now calling for a new protest
against Trump, a national march against Trump. Another no Kings,
no oh King, like he's a dictator again. There this
whole dictator garbage. They're not going to let it go.
They're not going to let it go. So another no
(47:07):
Kings march. I think in what three weeks? So they're
not gonna stop near your neck of the woods. I mean,
I don't know where in New Hampshire you live, rob
It just says New Hampshire on the board. But in
Nashaua at the sky Meadow country Club. I've been to
the sky Meadow country Club. It's a beautiful country it's
a golf course, obviously, beautiful, country club, beautiful and there's
(47:32):
a lot of weddings, receptions, events that are held there.
There was a beautiful wedding just on Saturday night and
they went to the country club for a reception before
the first dance between the bride and the groom. This
is Nashaua. This is Nashua and for those of you
(47:57):
listening around the country because we have a huge national audience.
It's about, you know, forty forty five minutes sorry, forty
forty five miles north of Boston. I don't want to
say minutes because the traffic can be insane. So forty
forty five miles north slightly northwest of Boston, okay, And
(48:18):
hardly anything happens in Nashua. And I don't mean that
as a put down. It's a very safe place. At
a wedding reception party, a radical left wing terrorist dressed
in black wearing a mask, broke in, yelling free free Palestine, Free,
(48:43):
Free Palestine. And as everybody said, all they heard was
boom boom, boom, boom boom. He shot up the wedding party.
Six people were in, two seriously wounded. One person a
(49:04):
wedding guest dead. Robert Stephen de Caesar dead, fifty nine
years of age. He died protecting his wife and his daughter.
He literally used his body to shield his wife and
his daughter. They're freaking shooting up wedding parties. Now, where's
(49:28):
the local media in New Hampshire on this that this
is left wing terrorism? They're reporting on the shooting, yes,
but that this is left wing terrorism nowhere here in Boston,
nowhere around the country, nowhere
