Speaker 1 (00:01):
Two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay,
this is an absolutely brilliant, brilliant message that I got
from Craig from marblehead on messenger, Jeff. Here is the difference.
Charlie Kirk used his mouth to get his point across
(00:22):
the left has to use a gun. That's pretty much
where we are. Look, Craig, you're dead on, absolutely dead on.
This is from You can also text the cooner man
seven zero four seven zero seven zero four seven zero.
This is from six to soho three Jeff. There is
(00:43):
so much that needs to be said about this unspeakable
travesty that I almost don't even know where to start.
So let me just say this. Charlie Kirk did nothing
more than to speak the truth. But true sounds like
hate to those who hate the truth. It is my
(01:06):
fervent prayer that the Lord will use this event to
awaken our nation that what they meant for evil, God
meant for good. And in an almost prophetic turn of phrase,
the name of Charlie's organization will ring true and this
event will be the turning point in the United States
(01:31):
of America. Very eloquent and very powerful, very well said
six three six to one, and I hope you're right.
I truly do. Charlie was the founder and CEO of
Turning Point USA, and I believe his organization now is
only going to get bigger and stronger, and I think
it's going to even start going on even more college campuses.
(01:52):
I'm sensing now a fierce, fierce determination now among so
many conservatives and Trump supporters that frankly I didn't see before.
So this assassination has changed at least our side. Middle
America now, I believe has now been not just awakened,
(02:15):
but I think now galvanized and empowered in a way
it never was before, because now we clearly see who
and what the left is. Okay, let me ask all
of you, and it's the Kooner Country Pole Question of
the Day sponsored by Marios Marios Quality Roofing, Siding and Windows.
(02:39):
And this is Sandy she put up this question. I
think it's a great question. Do you believe the FBI
will find Charlie Kirk's assassin? Let me repeat that, do
you believe the FBI, because they're the ones now spearheading
the search for the killer, you'll find Charlie Kirk's assassin A, yes,
(03:06):
B no. You can vote on our web page wrko
dot com slash cooner wrko dot com slash cooner. K
u h n is in national Er, or if you prefer,
you can vote via x and man was I active
on X last night? My handle there all one word
(03:29):
at the Kooner Report. Kuh And is in national Er. Currently,
thirty six percent of you believe that the FBI will
nab or catch Charlie Kirk's killer sixty three almost sixty
four percent if you say no, So there's a lot
(03:50):
of skepticism about the FBI, which I'm not surprised to
be honest. Six one seven two six six sixty eight
sixty eight Maria in Ludlow. Thanks for holding Maria, and welcome.
I honestly I feel sick. I'm not going to lie
(04:12):
to you. I don't mean sick from my ribs. I
mean sick to my stomach. After what happened yesterday.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I wasn't in disbelief. I felt this numbness come over
me like I was a family member of mine that
i'd passed away. And I'm grateful you're feeling better, and
I pray for your safety because your named into my
mind also because this this painous, senseless act of violence.
(04:47):
I mean, he was assassinated for speaking his truth, for
speaking his mind. He was such a bright light amongst
the young community by opening their eyes and by let
them speak their minds. And it was a great loss
(05:09):
for this country, for this nation, for the young generation.
Because now I don't even call them the Democratic Party anymore.
I called them the domestic terrorism Party because that's exactly
what they are. News outlets, all of these people, they
are domestic terrorism. And it's sad. Yesterday on social media
(05:37):
I saw a lot of people with the f around
and find out I had to block a lot of
people yesterday because my heart just I could not take it.
And for somebody to be happy with this happening, it
shows the kind of people that they are. And it's disheartened.
(06:00):
And I hope and pray that, you know, my heart
goes out to his family, his beautiful wife, Erica, his babies.
This has to stop. The Domestic Terrorism Party is pure evil.
This is not even like between left and right anymore.
These liberals, they're not even like a mental thing anymore.
(06:23):
It's good versus evil. These people are pure hatred in
their hearts, and you know, it's just I am totally
saddened that this happened because this young man, he's a
young man. I am forty nine years old and this
young man is thirty one. He had his life ahead
(06:45):
of him, and he made such a great outreach to
the young community and he helped so many and because
of this happening, they'd just woken up a sleeping giant.
I believe that this is going to get bigger. And
I saw yesterday in social media that I almost fell
(07:05):
off my seat that young Democrats, young young people were
actually saying that their party is a party of hate.
That they might have not agreed with everything or maybe
nothing that Charlie said, but what their party has done
(07:26):
is unspeakable. It's demonic. And I hope to God that
whenever this person is found, and I believe this was
like a professional person that was taught by the left
and indoctrinated, and I hope when they do find him
(07:48):
that they do not let have this person have no airtime.
His name should not be spoken, he should not get
any recognition whatsoever because what happens.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Oh, I agree, that's what he wants. He wants to
be famous, six one seven two six six, sixty eight
sixty eight is the number. This is an absolutely phenomenal
text from five zero eight. I mean again, best I know.
I know, I say it all the time. I'm sorry,
(08:25):
it's true. I know I sound like a broken record.
Best audience into business. Listen to this, doozy Jeff. The
way the cities across America won't burn in the wake
of Charlie Kirk's assassination will tell you everything you need
(08:45):
to know about the difference between the left and the right.
That is an absolutely spectacular point. In the wake of
George Floyd's death, they burned city after city to the
how many innocent civilians were killed, how many cops were shot, murdered, maimed.
(09:08):
And here a cold blooded, premeditated, politically motivated assassination of
Charlie Kirk, a conservative icon, a pivotal figure in the
MAGA movement, a brilliant, outspoken conservative, a man who touched
so many young people on thousands of college campuses, shot dead.
(09:36):
Not one city is burning, there's not one riot. No
businesses are being torched, cars aren't being lit on fire,
nobody's being shot. We're not blocking traffic, We're not shutting
the country down. In fact, we ask for a simple
prayer in Congress, and the Democrat shout us down. And
(10:04):
notice many of them openly, openly celebrating his death and murder,
gloating over the fact that he's now dead and still
how civilized and restrained and peaceful we remain. And they
(10:26):
call us Nazis, they call us Hitler, were the threat
to democracy. The violence is apparently all coming from us.
You want to see how absolutely deranged, seriously sick in
the head, unhinged these people are. If I said it,
(10:48):
you wouldn't. I'm telling you won't believe me. Okay, So
here it is. I want you to listen. Now, this
is Pritzker. That's swab okay, out in out in Illinois's Pritzker.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Now.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Yesterday, first it was Elizabeth Warren. She was the one
that went on about how we need more gun control.
As I said, the body wasn't even cold. No, no,
we need to have more gun control.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Take away people's handguns, take away anything you can take
away from them.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You don't even know the basic circumstances or facts of
the case. The man was just pronounced dead two minutes ago.
I blame Tromp. I blame Tromp for this culture of violence.
It's all his fault. So he's responsible now for the
death of Charlie Kirk. Are you that crazy? Are you
(11:41):
that unhinged? Well, listen out to Pritzker. Listen out of this.
He blames Trump and if you can believe it. January sixth,
roll cut nine, Mike.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
My sympathy to Charlie Kirk's family, to Charlie Kirk, who
obviously is you know, become a target for somebody. I
don't know whether it's political violence because I don't know
who did it. I know they seem to have somebody
in custody. But I will say that political violence, unfortunately,
(12:17):
has been ratcheting up in this country. We saw the shootings,
the killings in Minnesota. We've seen other political violence occur
in other states, and I would just say it's got
to stop. And I think there are people who are
fomenting it in this country. I think the President's rhetoric
often foments it. We've seen the January sixth rioters who clearly,
(12:42):
you know, have tripped.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
A new era of political violence. This guy's disgusting. I'm
telling you, this is disgusting. By the way, this is Pretzker,
who's going on. If you send in Ice to deport
and detain and arrest the legal aliens, it's an invasion.
That Ice is the modern day Gestapo. That Trump is
(13:08):
a modern day Hitler, that Trump is a dictator, and
that his supporters, you me, most of us in this audience,
that we all support fascism, white supremacy and this dictatorship,
and this slob is going on about Trump is fomenting
(13:29):
this climate. It's all Trump. No, it's you and your party,
You and your party, You're the ones who've been fomenting
this violence. And notice he talks about the shootings in Minnesota. Yeah,
it was a transactivist who shot up a Catholic school, sorry,
a Catholic church, forgive me. That was violence on the left.
(13:56):
What about Luigi Mangioni, No, that's not violence on the left.
What about Butler Pennsylvania. That wasn't violence on the left.
What about the attempt at killing of Trump in Florida
at the golf course. That wasn't violence on the left. Antifa,
that's not the left, BLM, that's not the left. Shooting
Steve Scalise almost dying on the operating table. That's not
(14:19):
violence on the left. I could go on and on
and on and again. January sixth. Let's be clear. On
January sixth, the only people that died were Trump supporters,
Ashley Babbitt being the first one gay exhibit A, Roseanne
(14:43):
Boylen exhibit B. I could go right down. Four were
murdered that day. They were all Trump supporters. But yet
notice were the ones who are responsible for this hate
and violence. Enough is enough? Seriously, enough is enough? Agree, disagree?

Palm in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding Palm and welcome.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
Hey Jeff, thanks for taking my call. Sorry for the
horonic situation wherein in regards to Charlie Kurk, if he
gets just passed yesterday, if we can get passed yesterday
and the day before, the good that he did in
the world was just between you and me and every
other conservative out there. They took his life and they
(15:39):
marred him, but his turning point in America, because of the
brilliance of this guy, will live on its own. My
my hurt and my my my ache in my heart
is for those two kids and the wife. You know,
his going home to meet Jesus. He's okay now. And
his heel wasn't one of politics. He wasn't a political guy.
(16:05):
He was somebody who talked about the spiritual issue in America.
I think that his legacy is gonna be what turning
point is and who knows what comes out of those
two girls. Who knows what comes out of that mom
and that wife. Right, And as much as we heard today, right,
keep in mind too, today's September eleventh. What happened on
(16:28):
September eleventh. Benghazi was a September eleventh thing of September eleventh,
when they dropped the towers, the three thousand deaths. The
miracle there was that we came together, not that those
three thousand people went home to meet God. It was
that we came together. Charlie Kirk did that. And he
(16:52):
wasn't a challenge to somebody who thought different than him.
He was a challenge to somebody who hated him him.
And he wasn't a hatemonger. He was He loved people.
And they crucified Jesus. They killed Christ instead of not
(17:12):
that it's a worry that we're heartbroken about his death
at age thirty one. But think how lucky we are
as a universe and as a nation that we had
him for that thirty one years that we had him
which was incidentally almost the life of Christ. Right, Christ
was only here for thirty three years, But what he's
done for us is tremendous. And the hurt and the
(17:35):
hotache for me is for his two girls and his
and his wife. That was That's my thoughts.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
It's a beautiful thought, honestly, Yeah, Tom, very touching and
absolutely beautiful, very eloquent. And look, I you know, I
love my kids like everybody loves their kids. And they're
a little older, they're fifteen and thirteen. But even at
this stage, I'm thinking, boy, if they lost their father,
how much it would you know, how much how much
(18:05):
they would lose out imagine those two little babies. They're
basically their babies, and now they're going to grow up
without a father. Six one seven two, six, six sixty
eight sixty eight is the number. Okay. As President Trump
said last night, this is a very very dark moment
in America right now. Charlie Kirk, a leading voice of
(18:28):
the conservative movement, a brilliant political organizer, someone who touched countless,
literally millions of young people on college campuses all across
the country, has now been brutally assassinated. The perpetrator is
still at large. They arrested two suspects, two people of
(18:50):
interest as they were called. They were both released. They
say they were not the shooters. And now this assassin
is on the run. He is goose somewhere in the
country and the FBI law enforcement are desperately trying to
capture him. Six one seven two six six sixty eight
(19:10):
sixty eight. Before I go back to the blazing phone lines,
I just want to read a quick text from my
sister out in Arizona, and just you understand the context.
I have two nephews, both of whom go to the
University of Arizona. So this is what my sister wrote.
(19:32):
And Martin is my brother in law, Jeff Martin, and
I along with our with the boys Matthew and Andrew,
are heartbroken over the assassination of Charlie Kirk. He came
to their university last year and they loved it. Everyone
(19:53):
just keeps talking about him as a person who supported
Trump and the conservative movement, but he was so much
more than that. To our youth. Many young college students
feel confused about their future and they're depressed. He inspired
them to turn to God, let them know they all
(20:13):
had something of value and that they did not need
a college degree to achieve their dreams as did he.
I really hope this is what everyone will highlight about Charlie.
I hope that our youth that were inspired by Charlie
will keep his memory alive on college campuses and continue
(20:33):
to spread his beautiful message. Well said Jen. If you're listening,
very well said, listen now to the Governor of Utah,
Spencer Cox. He is, by the way, calling for the
death penalty as his President Trump, and frankly, as am I.
This assassin should get a lethal injection. That's how they
(20:57):
do it in Utah. I don't care electric chair, firing, squad,
lethal injection. I don't care. I want there to be
the death penalty, and I want this to be done
quickly fast. I don't want to see procedural hurdles and
appeal after appeal after appeal. This assassin should fry for
(21:22):
what he did, and frankly, it should serve as a
deterrence to others because if they give him a slap
on the wrist, or if he doesn't get the death penalty,
it's just going to inspire others to walk in his
footsteps and kill more conservative leaders. Listen now to the
governor of Utah saying, it's a dark day for our
(21:44):
state and for our country. Roll cut six, Mike.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
This is a dark day for our state. It's a
tragic day for our nation. And I want to be
very clear that this is a political assassination.
Speaker 7 (22:06):
We are.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
Celebrating two hundred and fifty years of the founding of
this great nation, that founding document, the Declaration of Independence,
That this great experiment on which we embark together two
hundred and fifty years ago, that we are endowed by
our creator with certain unalienable rights. The first one of
(22:29):
those is life, and today a life was taken.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
I want to play a cut. He's completely right, completely right.
I want to play a cut. Congresswoman Nancy Mace, she
was in a media scrum. Now, notice what the media
is trying to do now that there's irrefutable evidence of
left wing political terrorism, that this was a clear political assassination. Now,
(23:05):
all of a sudden, violence is across the political spectrum.
That no, no, It's not just the Democrats that are responsible.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
No, no, no, Republicans do it too. Hey, Trump supporters,
you know how violent we are. And Mace's point is,
can you name me one Trump supporter who killed anybody
again January sixth? Again, everybody killed on January six we're
Trump supporters. So can you name me a Trump supporter.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
That went out and killed any high profile Democrat or anybody?
Can you name me one? All the violence is either
coming from the Islamists or from the radical left. Listen
now to Nancy Mace saying the Democrats own what happened yesterday.
(23:57):
Roll cut eleven, Mike.
Speaker 8 (24:02):
I'm going to say this, Democrats own what happened today.
I am devastated. My kids have called panicking. They probably
all the kids of every concern in the country called panicking.
Just because you speak your mind on an issue doesn't
mean you get.
Speaker 5 (24:19):
Shot by that logical Republicans own the shooting of the
two Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota.
Speaker 8 (24:25):
Political?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Isn't this on both hiding?
Speaker 8 (24:29):
We don't know what contention Charlie Kirk is in right now.
Speaker 9 (24:32):
Some raging leftist.
Speaker 8 (24:34):
Lunatic put a bullet through his neck, and you want
to talk about Republicans right now. No, you said they,
But Democrats own this.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Democrats problem with pol political violence across the spectrum.
Speaker 8 (24:47):
Yeah, we're talking about Charlie Kirk right now. That's the
subject of this that we're talking about.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Right now.
Speaker 8 (24:51):
Democrats own this one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Look at the vermin in the media. Look at the
I'm telling you, these people are sick. By the way.
Those two state laws that were shot and killed. It
was by a mentally ill man who was going on
about how Governor Waltz asked him in his mind, in
his crazy mind, to kill these two lawmakers. He was
(25:16):
a leftist, for God's sake, who shot those two lawmakers
in Minnesota? This is pathetic? So no, no, you see,
look at the game now they play. No, well, Republicans
own shootings too. Can you name me one all a
shooting in Minnesota? No, that was done by a mentally
ill man who was a registered Democrat. What are you
(25:39):
talking to me about? Look, they can't even acknowledge the
truth when it hits him in the face. So let
me ask all of you. Do the Democrats own the
assassination that happened yesterday? Is this constant rhetoric coming from
(26:01):
the media, coming from the Democrats, coming from liberals, calling
us Nazis, fascists, white supremacists, authoritarians, an existential threat to democracy?
Has it now led inevitably to the political violence and
(26:22):
political murder that we saw yesterday? I say yes, what
say you? Jennifer in Ipswich. Thanks for holding Jennifer.
Speaker 10 (26:32):
And welcome Hi Jess.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I'm good? How are you?
Speaker 7 (26:37):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (26:37):
Not too good? I couldn't sleep last night. I was
crying all night. I was on X last night just
looking at people celebrating about this. It was just horrible.
I actually blocked some friends that I thought were friends
of mine because they were like, well, I don't have
empathy for somebody, you know? And I almost like wow,
(26:58):
like I can't. This is horrible.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Jennifer. I'm just curious when you asked your friends, what
did Charlie Kirk ever do to you? What did he
ever do besides debate that, you know, made him deserve
to be killed? That they would be so cold and callous.
(27:24):
I mean, did you confront them on.
Speaker 5 (27:26):
That, you know what?
Speaker 10 (27:28):
I didn't because I was just just so upset and
so disturbed by it that I couldn't even I was speechless.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
You know, Jennifer, let me tell you what's haunting me,
and you tell me if you agree or disagree what's
haunting me. And I could tell because I'm getting a
lot of emails again this morning, and there's a lot
of moonbats, a lot of hardcore leftists who are emailing
the cooner Man, and they're going on how Trump is
(28:02):
to blame for what happened, how I'm to blame. Literally,
I swear to you that Trump me, people like me,
people like Charlie Kirk, etc. That we have all of
this coming to us, that we've created this climate of
hatred and fascism in America, and that this is just
(28:24):
the beginning. You can sense the bloodthirstiness out there. And
so my question to you, and this is what's bothering me.
I don't know if this is the end. My fear
is this may just be the beginning. Do you fear
now that we're going to see more political violence, more
people murdering and assassinating leading conservatives, leading conservative voices. I mean,
(28:50):
I'm just curious, what say you, Jennifer.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
I unfortunately think we are going to see more of it,
not from the right, but definitely from the left. You know, yeah,
they're saying political violence isn't you know, shouldn't be allowed
in this world. But three days from now, they'll probably
still call us Nazis and everything again. So I don't
(29:17):
even know where we go from here.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Jennifer, thank you very much for your call. I really appreciated. Look,
you know, a lot of you are emailing the cooner Man.
You're saying, Jeff, it almost feels like there's a death
in the family, and that's that's how I feel. It's
almost like there's like a funeral, like you know, there's
like almost like like we're in mourning. The country's in mourning,
(29:42):
and it's almost like we're attending awake or a funeral,
like I know, a family member has just passed away.
That's that, you know, that's in many ways how I feel. Anyway,
we just we can't allow this to demoralize and depress us.
This is very important because that's what the left wants.
(30:03):
That's the point of political terrorism. That's why you know,
communists always shoot their opponents because they want to terrorize, intimidate, bully,
and frighten people, demoralize people. And that's not what Charlie
Kirk would want. Charlie Kirk was a fighter, a debater,
(30:24):
an American, someone who always believed in moving forward and
never looking back. And he was a warrior, an ideological
cultural warrior. And to me, what we have to do
now is we have to unite the right, must unite conservatives,
(30:45):
Trump supporters, everybody. We must unite and defeat the radical
left once and for all, defeat the Democrats once and
for all. Six one agree, disagree, six one seven two
sixty eight sixty eight Brooks in North Carolina. Thanks for
(31:05):
holding Brooks and welcome.
Speaker 11 (31:10):
Good morning, Jeff. I'm just hi. I just think you're
doing a wonderful job as always, Jeff, and you're really
memorializing Charlie in the wonderful light that you are. He
was a young prodigy chosen by the Lord. And there's
sadly a condition that we describe when somebody special like
(31:32):
this comes into our world as irreplaceable. And you know,
let us never forget the voice of Rush Limba when
Charlie Kirk was just coming around and he kind of
humored everybody and said, Charlie Kirk is running the White House.
And I'll never forget those words from our beloved friend
(31:54):
Rush Limba, you know Charlie Kirk. Usually when you have
a young presence like this, people will often say you
know so and so, like Michael Savage, for example, you
were on his program. You know, could say that you
know he was grooming you. But the conditions that we
found ourselves in was that Charlie was grooming us. Charlie
(32:15):
was grooming us. He didn't need any he was just
spiritually fit, he was spiritually whole. And he often would
say things like, when we introduced violence into any part
of a debate, we've lost the debate. It's not an option.
And so may may he rest in peace, Lord Jesus,
May he rest in peace. And God just grace those children,
(32:40):
his beautiful son and daughter, with understanding that their father's
presence here had impact that will never ever be forgotten. Jeff,
I wanted to just quickly talk about some some very
very difficult things. Yesterday. For example, my wife Kim and
(33:01):
I were looking at President Trump's security detail in horror
when these leftists, screaming women got within an arm's length
to him in that restaurant. We saw this in horror,
and I said, my god, they could have risin. They
could have a fentanyl in their purse. They could have
(33:21):
a you know, a thirty eight special. Why aren't these
women being detained? For God's sakes, you know, Trump is
visibly saying get them out. Number one, they shouldn't have
been there. Number two, it had to have been a
security league within that restaurant. And I'll kind of create
the bridge to how this relates to Charlie Kirk because
there is a connection with the lack of security detail
(33:44):
Trump has, you know, should again fire his entire secret service.
Those women never should have been that close to him.
That was terrifying. Look for anybody out there you know
that wants a debate this, you can. But the Russians
in the Israelis use as assassins. If you don't believe me,
look it up. So just because they come in with
the Louis vatand you know, purses and all of this,
(34:07):
they were a threat. They never should have been left.
They should have been detained and searched. Anyway, Brookstar, you're.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Dead on, you are dead on, and I'm so happy
you mentioned it. Look, this is what my wife told
me this morning. At five o'clock in the morning. She
said to me, we were just having a little bit
of breakfast before I do the pre show production with
Sandy and Mike, and she said, you watch, Trump will
be next. They'll try to get Trump. She's not saying
(34:37):
they will, but she said, you watch. You think they're
going to stop with Charlie Kirk. My wife honestly told
me two things. She said to me, watch your back.
She says, I'm telling you better watch your back. And
she said, I'll tell you right now, they're going to
go for Trump again. The rhetoric that they're spewing, the
hate that they're spewing, how much they loathe this man,
(34:59):
how they so wanted him killed in Butler, they I mean,
they have turned him into Hitler in their minds. They
truly believe we're living in the Fourth Reich. That's how
deranged and crazy these people have become. And it's because
of NonStop propaganda in doctrination. And when you truly believe
(35:20):
you're being ruled by Hitler, you are. That's I mean,
it's not a dog whistle, it's a bullhorn. Kill him,
assassinate him, finish him off, Save our republic, save our democracy.
And my fear is they got Charlie Kirk and they're
going to try to go after Trump again. And I
agree with you as security sucks. I'm sorry to put
(35:42):
it in such a crude way. His security is no good.
Those women shouldn't have gone. They came within a couple
feet of them. This is insane. So and look, I
want to go to your earlier point because I think
you're both. Both of your points are superb. Look what
they've now done, let's be very clear, is they've made
(36:04):
Charlie Kirk a martyr. They made him a martyr. That's
what they don't realize. He's now more popular than ever.
His message will now resonate more than ever, and I
think he's going to inspire even more people to walk
in his footsteps. And you know you described him. He
(36:26):
was a Christian family man. That was Charlie Kirk. It
was God, family, country. And he was a peace loving man.
He wasn't a pacifist. You know, he did believe in
projecting American power, but he so loved peace. And you're right.
Whenever he would debate anybody, he would say, look, if
(36:47):
you have to resort to violence, you've lost the argument.
He truly believed in the best of our ideals in
a real republican form of government, a constitutional government, believed
in political freedom, free speech, free assembly, freedom of the media,
freedom of religion, freedom of expression, freedom of debate, civil
(37:12):
open discourse and debate. And that's what made him such
a threat to the left, and he went right at
their base of power. The left's power is that they
control the institutions of cultural power, and that in particular
(37:33):
is education. They indoctrinate our kids in the classroom, they
indoctrinate them in high school, they indoctrinate them in college.
And so where did Charlie Kirk go. He went to
college campuses and frankly also high school students, and so
he confronted that indoctrination. He challenged the fact that they
(37:54):
were being brainwashed, and he challenged the socialism and the
Marxism and the communism them that they were marinating our
kids' brains in. And that's why he posed such a
mortal threat to the liberal regime. And to be honest
with you, that's why they're all celebrating. They sell if
(38:16):
he was a nobody and a nothing, if he was
someone who was ineffectual and feckless, they wouldn't give a damn.
But the fact that they are dancing on his grave again.
That's how the Bolsheviks roll. They see people that are effective,
that can galvanize opposition, that's a threat, kill him, take
(38:38):
them out, and what they want. And this is why
I'm urging everybody please listen. My parents come from Eastern Europe,
my grandparents. I know this movie. I've seen it many times.
What they want is for you to be depressed, for
you to throw up your hands and say, what can
we do. We can't do anything, to be demoralized, to
(39:01):
be afraid, to be intimidated. We have to do the
exact opposite. We have to show them that he's gonna
be a martyr and that his message of faith, family
and freedom we are now gonna carry this banner and
we're gonna be bigger, louder, stronger, and more vigorous and
(39:23):
energetic and united than ever. In other words, you kill
one Charlie Kirk, you get ten more Charlie Kirks. You
kill ten Charlie Kirks, you get a hundred Charlie Kirks.
That's the only way to beat him. And look again,
I'm gonna be honest with all of you like I'm
in the confessional. This is not a political war anymore.
(39:49):
This is a spiritual moral battle.
