Speaker 1 (00:03):
My name is Charlie kirk I run the largest pro
American student organization in the country, fighting for the future
of our republic. My call is to fight evil and
to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you
is just feeling good, you're gonna end up miserable. But
if the most important thing is doing good, you'll end
up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You got to

(00:26):
stop sending your kids to college. You should get married
as young as possible and have as many kids as possible.
Go start at turning point, you would say, college chapter.
Go start attorny point, you say high school chapter. Go
find out how your church can get involved. Sign up
and become an activist. I gave my life to the
Lord in fifth grade, most important decision I ever made
in my life, and I encourage you to do the same.
Here I am Lord, Use me. Buckle up, everybody, Here

(00:50):
we go. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor
of the Charlie Kirkshaw, a company that specializes in gold
eye rays and physical delivery of precious metals. Learn how
you could protect your wealth with Noble Gold Investments at

(01:10):
noblegold investments dot Com. That is Noblegoldinvestments dot Com. Thank you, everybody,
please take a seat, give it up for Alex. That's
not easy to open up a conference like that. That
is not easy, you know. I told Alex backstage, I
don't know what that is. I told Alex she should

(01:32):
have picked more controversial topics to open a conference with.
It's coming out on birth control and daycare. Said, wow,
that takes a lot of courage and a lot of gusto. Alex,
you deserve a lot of credit for that. I gotta
tell you that's that's really, that's really something. Welcome to
our eighth annual Young Women's Leadership sum At. Everybody, this

(01:56):
is it's a very event and I have to make
sure I do this every time we gather. We have
to thank the tireless efforts of our Turning Point USA
staff that make this all possible. And I tell you
they have been here all week, from the graphic designers

(02:20):
to the video editors, to the av team, to people
that are doing just the muscle work of putting all
this together. They have worked so hard to make sure
you have a memorable couple of days. And so when
you see them, thank them. Who here is this your
first ever young women's leadership summon that is so amazing,
first ever. Okay, so I'm gonna ask another question because,

(02:42):
like Alex, I'm gonna have some homework, but I'm gonna
be even more direct. Okay, who here traveled and you
don't know anybody in this room? Raise your hand? Okay,
so keep your hand up. If you do know somebody,
go find somebody their hand up and introduce yourself. Because
here's what we're not gonna do. Okay. You know, we
have a men's summit now at Turning Point, USA, and

(03:05):
it's very different than our women's summit. It's very different.
It's in the woods, and it deprived of the calories.
There's no disco ball, it's it's a whole thing. I
will say though, that our women's summit is different a
couple different ways. I'll tell you about it. One of
the things is that it tends to be a little clique.
You ever see mean girls? Okay, that's what I mean.

(03:28):
We're not going to do the clickie thing. Okay, So
I am telling you to go out of your comfort
zone if you are here with a friend, to go
find someone that does not know a soul here That
was bold enough and courageous enough to travel halfway around
the country, and you're gonna go introduce themselves so that
tomorrow when I ask that question, no one raises their hand. Okay,

(03:50):
we're gonna do that tonight and you're gonna act on that. Okay. Now,
you know, we do some of the biggest events in
the whole country, right we do are Amfest, America Fest,
and Phoenix, which has become this amazing event. You should
all attend. It's incredible. It's very interesting though, because at
the Women's Summit it's very different than America Fest. You know,

(04:14):
I read audiences. I've given a couple of speeches in
my life, and at Amfest or at SASS or at
any one of our events, the young ladies and the
young men, you know, they're paying attention, but their heads
are kind of moving to the side a little bit.
Are you looking at me? And you know, okay, good,
got it, I'm looking at you. And at the Women's Summit,

(04:36):
you guys are just focused on the speaker. And what
an amazing thing to show that this idea of women
gathering together shows that there is such a thing as
a woman. What an idea. Now we live we have

(04:59):
a lot of press here, and welcome, by the way,
to all of our media and our press. We mean
that we hope you learn something, and why we know
many by the way, I mean that I know why
they're here, and I'm glad they're here. They're here because
they're curious and they're fascinated and they're also confused. High
on Earth, twenty five hundred young conservative women will go

(05:19):
into their bank accounts in the middle of the summer
to voluntarily want to come for faith, for freedom, for family,
for virtue, for the country. Right, and I'll quite get it,
that's all right. But all of a sudden, people talking
about being moms and being members of society and saving
the country from this Marxist degeneracy that we're living under.

(05:41):
They're trying to understand it, like where does this come from?
But more than that, they're curious about how we're going
to handle which is the kind of third rail issue.
And if you know anything about turning Point, USA, boy,
Alex certainly set the standard. If there is a fourth rail,
that's where we begin, right. So, and it's obvious because

(06:01):
all of you are living through it, all of you
see it, right, all of you have to experience it
on your high school or college campuses or on TikTok.
And this is new. When we had our first ever
young women's leadership summit in the Cerbrances of Chicago, we
had seventy or eighty young ladies. And if I would
have done the following thing I said, and we know

(06:22):
what a woman is, people would have been like, yeah, okay,
eight years ago there it would have been incomprehensible. So
what changed, but changed is at an outgrowth of modernity
and we're living in this postmodern, post structuralist everybody gets
to decide their own truth for themselves. This social contagion
that is spreading the country at a rapid pace that

(06:45):
disguises itself as transgenderism, and it is accelerating. It is
not slowing down. You see it on equal footing outside
of this hotel. I tried my best to take down
the flag. Everybody. I tried my best. I failed. Okay,
I'm sorry. I tried my best. I know you are
all thinking it, right, what is that all about? By

(07:07):
the way, this hotel better do something, or we're going
to find another hotel because I'm not going to come back.
Or this is ridiculous. Right here, I am. I see
the American flag, the Texas flag, and the LG the
whatever thing, and and I say, this is this is

(07:27):
not right. This is an insult to all of us,
to our traditions and our customs. This is not wrong.
So Lauren, don't sign that contract for next year. Okay?
You listening? Yes, let's see what we could do. I'm
not putting up with this and you should either. And
so this is spreading.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Something that's on everyone's mind right now is the housing market.
Whether you're looking to buy your first home, purchase your
dream home, wondering if your current mortgage is still the
best fit for you, or you're considering using your equity
to pay off other high interest debt with double digit rates,
the wait and see approach may actually be costing you money.
That's where Andrew and Todd with Union Home Mortgage come in.

(08:14):
These guys aren't just lenders, they're strategists. The market shifts
every single day, and there are more opportunities than ever
to make your mortgage work for you instead of against you.
Right now, Andrew and Todd are offering a completely free
mortgage review, no pressure, no obligation. You can do it
and review it and say hey, not right now, or
they can help you. Just a professional review of your

(08:35):
current situation to see whether you may be able to
lower your payment, improve cash flow, consolidate debt, or better
leverage your home equity. Don't leave your biggest investment to chance.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
And let's be clear, many of you probably have a
temperament like I do on the day or lesbian issue. Look,
first of all, I believe marriage is one man, one woman.
I'm very clear about that. Okay, but I think many
of you probably have a built in temperament. I'm not
here to overpolice your personal life. You're an adult. I
don't agree with it. I don't believe it's right. But
live and let live. That doesn't exist. Live and live

(09:24):
is dead. It's live and let us rule is what
we live under now. It's live and give me power
to come after your children. And if you don't agree
with me, and if you don't allow me to come
after your kids, you're a bigot. And what we are
seeing in this last year, which is why this Young

(09:44):
Women's Leadership Summit is one of the most important gatherings
in the history of Turning Point USA, if not the
most important, is even since last year when some of
you were there, we have seen an all out, deliberate, concentrated, NonStop,
relentless assault on women in this country, even more than

(10:07):
just individual women, but on the idea of a woman,
on the truth of what a woman is. In fact,
we have creepy, narcissistic freaks who think they are men
wearing dresses to compete in sports against many of you.
We have men who are terrorizing young ladies in locker

(10:30):
rooms and we have to accept it and tolerate it
or else they call us names. You're gonna hear from
some of those speakers that was exposed to that, like
Riley Gaines. You're gonna hear a straight from her who
has the courage to speak out against it. And it's
amazing because this Woman's Summit is now something where we

(10:53):
have the largest gathering of women in the country on
these ideas. In the Valleys by far right, and it's about,
of course femininity and freedom and the country and all this,
but it's also about sending a message through all these
speakers and through you back in your communities to say
something very clearly that I could tell you what a

(11:15):
woman is because you're looking at one, and if you
are not one, stop wearing woman face and pretending to
be something that you are not. You see, women are
more agreeable than men. They are. Women are less likely

(11:39):
to ask for raises, less likely to get into debates.
They're less It's a fact, and that's not a negative thing.
Men and women are different, and praise God, they're different. However,
creepy men that have deep seated mental problems that need treatment, Okay,

(12:00):
they need treatment. They need help. By the way, Help
is not more pharmaceuticals from Pfizer or AstraZeneca or Maderna
Johnson and Johnson. Help is not surgery to have them
go medieval on them. Okay. Help is talking to a
council that could tell them the truth, find out the
root trauma, and get them back into reality. That's what

(12:22):
help looks like now, is that those people are preying
on you. Transgenderism in its current form in America is
nothing more than weaponized tyrannical patriarchy to come after women.

(12:43):
I have to hear. Oh, the patriarchy, the patriarchy. You
know what the true patriarchy is right now, men wearing
women facing female sports. That's the truth. Patriarchy. Now, we're
doing our best at turning point to speak out again,
to call it what it is. This has to be
a female led movement though. This is by the way,

(13:07):
it will only be successful if it is a female
lead movement. And so what exactly does that look like?
You have to be disagreeable on this topic, and you
might say, oh, well, you know, Charlie, it's tough, and
they call me names, Yes they will, And so what

(13:29):
they will call you names? You are on you are
in the arena. They're trying to frame this as a
civil rights issue. They're like, oh, well, this is the
same thing as Martin Luther King. What an insult to
Martin Luther King and the civil rights movement? What an
insult to the woman's suffrage movement? No, no, this is
the same old game that is repurposing itself and is

(13:52):
replaying itself, which is there are three types of people
in the world, there are infants, there are predators, and
the protector of infants predators will always be there. But
it is the people that are supposed to protect infants
from these ideas, from these social contagions. And right now
we are living under this fake religion of tolerance and

(14:15):
we are allowing them to steamroll our customs around. The
Texas flag is equal to the gay flag, where in
San Francisco they are raising up the American flag and
the gay flag up simultaneously. But we were told you
have to tolerate. If it was never about tolerance, was
it no, Because then it's about acceptance, We're like, well
that's weird. And then it's about celebration, mandatory celebration. And

(14:37):
then it's about participation. And if you're not going to participate,
they're gonna make your kids participate.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
Here's what your financial advisor won't tell you. By the
time the news tells you to buy gold, it's too late.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
You're waiting.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
I get it. Everybody's waiting, waiting to see if the
ceasefire holds, waiting to see if the straight of horn
moose reopens, waiting to see what hap that happens next.
But gold isn't waiting for you. It moves on fear,
on instability, on the unknown, and it moves faster than
you can react. So while you're waiting for certainty, the
rest of the world is planning for what comes next.
You can wait or you can get prepared. You can't

(15:14):
do both. Remember the best time to put on a
seat belt is before the accident, not after. If you're
ready to act, reach out to my friends at Noble
Gold Investments. They help Americans protect their savings with precious
with physical gold and silver ship to your door or

Speaker 1 (16:02):
You see what you have here right now in this room.
The combined power on your campuses, on your social media,
this right here could move the fight. So considerably against
the trans social contagion in a generationally impactful way. This
room can make the difference if each and every single
one of you went to social medium back in your communities,

(16:23):
in your conversations. One truth teller can speak for the
other people that are afraid that says, you know what,
get out of my locker room, creep, get out of
my locker room. I'm not gonna put up with this,
you know, more than anything else. People say, you know,

(16:44):
you got to embrace your your womanhood and all that.
I agree. How about let's embrace reality. We are on
team reality here. And nineteen sixties feminism, which Alex did
a great job indicting and attacking, was all about the
power of the woman. And now you have Katanji Brown Jackson,

(17:07):
who is a United States Supreme Court justice who has
asked a question by a sitting US senator what is
a woman? And she was unable to answer. She said,
I am not a biologist, a Supreme Court justice that

(17:28):
cannot ask what a female is or what a woman is.
She had a great opportunity. She could have said, you're
staring at one senator. Would have been a viral moment,
but no, she's captured by this trans ideology. You see,
we are all currently held hostage by a small, small
group of deranged people. That's what it is. Decent, ordinary people,

(17:51):
we now have to live to their customs, and I
will prove it to you. I'll prove it to you
because it's not about having sympathy, which we should all have.
It's not about tolerance, which is a fake pagan god
of our era. No, No, what it really is about is reaccommodation.
Why is it that we have to change our norms,
our language, our customs because one person is struggling with something.

(18:19):
Why is it that Thomas, the man who's living under
the delusion, who thinks he's a woman, Why couldn't he
still play dress up and take those weird drugs and
go finish one hundred and eighty fifth against men and
competing against people with his own bone density and muscleness.

(18:41):
Why couldn't he do that? He could still identify, but
just compete against someone with your same chromosomes. Dude. The
answer it's because he's a cheat, because he stole it,
and we let it happen, all of us, myself included.

(19:05):
We're allowing the strong to prey on people that do
not have the same sort of ability to compete in
either an athletic arena or otherwise, and it's only going
to continue. So that's really the question I think in
front of us right now, many of the questions, and
I want you to lean in these next couple of
days and ask the tough questions. I want you to

(19:27):
meet people outside of your comfort zone and listen to
all these speakers or anything else. I want you to
understand that this is a jumping off point and a
starting point to be able to make a generational impact.
There is no other event like this. There is no
other gathering like this where you're gonna hear what you're
going to hear and you have this kind of combination

(19:48):
of speakers. This is a rarity. This is the exact
opposite what you're gonna hear on the oscars or the
Golden Globes or in any that garbage that they put
on television. It's the exact opposite. But you know what,
I think this is actually more popular with the American
people than that trash that they're putting on television. So

(20:12):
I want to I want to make a couple of
actual technical announcements, remind her to find somebody who doesn't
know anybody and introduce yourself, and to make sure that
nobody raises their hand when I ask tomorrow. This is
a special event. We do this. We do this every year.
We're gonna have a couple of giveaways. We have some

(20:32):
We have an opportunity to be able to have a
round table with my wife, who I think is amazing.
But I'm a little biased, and I have many of
you too. If you so a couple of giveaway opportunities,
if you are motivated by something I say or Alex says,
and you say, Okay, now what, go immediately to the
turning point USA table out there and start a chapter.

(20:53):
Raise your hand. If you're a high school or college
chapter attorney, chapter leader, raise your hand. That's that's awesome.
I want every hand to go up. By the end
of this conference, we need you to go say you
know what, I'm going to start a chapter. I am
going to be my campus leader.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
Here's what your financial advisor won't tell you. By the
time the news tells you to buy gold, it's too late.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
You're waiting.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
I get it. Everybody's waiting waiting to see if the
ceasefire holds, waiting to see if the straight of horn
moose reopens, waiting to see what happens next. But gold
isn't waiting for you. It moves on fear, on instability,
on the unknown, and it moves faster than you can react.
So while you're waiting for certainty, the rest of the
world is planning for what comes next. You can wait

(21:37):
or you can get prepared. You can't do both. Remember
the best time to put on a seat belt is
before the accident, not after. If you're ready to act,
reach out to my friends at Noble Gold Investments. They

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Here's what I can guarantee you. If you start a
Turning Point USA chapter, your life will get harder. Okay,
it will not be easy, but your life will get better.

(22:48):
You will no longer live a shallow life. You will
live a deep life. Here's something that you will learn
throughout the next course of the days. I hope is
that the beautiful things require work. So yes, if you
start a Turning Point chapter, they're gonna call you names.
But then look to your left and look to your right.
You're not alone, not even close to being alone. If

(23:09):
you start a Turning Point USA chapter, you're gonna be
on the front lines of actually making a difference for
something that is bigger than yourself. It's a big deal.
So if you want to get into a contest to
win a round table with my wife Erica, you could
start a chapter. And that's important. You should start a chapter,
regardless of the sweepstakes. But that's just the way to

(23:29):
hopefully get you to do it. We want to get
every single one of you to say, you know what,
I'm going back to my high school. I'm gonna start
a high school chapter. I'm gonna start a college chapter.
A couple of the thoughts here, the country's in trouble.
You're gonna hear that a lot. What is exciting to
see them is that this event is growing like crazy,
and is how all of a sudden, the conservative movement

(23:52):
is so different than how the media likes to portray it.
They say, oh, that's just the male dominated thing. And again,
which is hilarious because they don't believe in like male
men or women they use it. It's the whole thing's
not insane. So and by the way, I would be
so insulted if I was a woman if like this
mulvany weirdo, who if he all of a sudden thinks

(24:16):
that he could fully understand women by like act by
the way, you know what's even creepier about that dude.
You know he acts as an eight year old, as
an infant. That's even weirder, right, it's like very serious
mental problems. But Fortune one hundred companies seem to like that.
Right now, I would be so repulsed by that. Be like,
you think that you can appropriate what a woman is

(24:38):
just by dressing differently and by acting that way. I
think it's I think it's so repulsive. But it's the
the situation in front of us is this. Here's what's
so cool is that we're starting to see things change.

(24:58):
Everybody boycotting Target alongside me. Am I right. There is
now a cost to doing this, and we're never going
to forget for all the companies that are watching out there.
You embrace the social contagion. We will make it hurt financially,

(25:20):
of course, and then we're gonna support the good guys.
We're gonna support the companies that take these stands and
are willing to stand for what is right. Okay, one
other announcement. We are filming something very exclusively on the
Charlie Kirkshow tomorrow. We have slots for eight people if
you're interested. We're not gonna call on hands, but it's

(25:43):
it's gonna be really fun. It'll be kind of like
a roundtable type thing. So basically, I think there's going
to be something coming up on stage. It's you email
us if you're interested, Freedom at charliekirk dot com if
you want to participate, but you have to email us
proof that you're just subscribed to our podcast, and if
you're not yet subscribed, just follow the QR code that's
up on the screen or coming up on the screen.

(26:03):
It's gonna be really fun. It's gonna be unscripted, and
it will be a chance to kind of hear from
you what you're what you're experiencing on the front lines,
and what you're going through. And so hopefully we can
get that up there. And if not, just please subscribe
to our podcast and email us Freedom at Charlie Kirk
dot com if you want to get engaged and get
involved in that. So if that comes up, great, If not,

(26:23):
we'll do it a different time. All right, I'll say
this in closing, Take this all in. This event changes lives.
If you want it to change your life. If you
are open to the career opportunities, the friendships, the networking opportunities,
there might be someone right here might be dealing with

(26:43):
a lot at home depression or anxiety, isolation, loneliness, and
all of a sudden you might hear a one liner
from a speaker that might change your life. And we
are here at Turning Point USA to serve you, to
help make those moments happen. And if you're going through
something difficult, please go to a staff member. We love
to help you through all that and a positive, optimistic,

(27:09):
but also tough female conservative movement is the left's worst nightmare,
and that's why you're going. God bless all of you.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
