Episodes
Joe Biden's 2024 election plan includes an unlikely policy pitch: The largest tax hike in American history. Heritage Foundation economist E.J. Antoni lays out Biden's toxic economic plan, which for the first time in history would include a new tax on unrealized gains — in other words, paying taxes on money a person hasn't even made yet. Plus, Kane reacts to the latest polling on the race and the impact of third-party candidates on ...
April has been a month with tough news, but 2024 remains an extremely winnable election, and Charlie has the polls and registration numbers to prove it. He walks through key numbers from Arizona and across the country and lays out why this must be a summer of aggressive campaigning rather than defeatist gloom.

Has America gone mildly astray from its principles, or is it radically off-track? Is America still exceptional? Was it EVER exceptional? And if America is to be made great again, what could Republican presidents learn from...FDR? Substack author Curtis Yarvin joins Charlie for compelling discussion about what made America successful, and what a future Republican president must be ready to do in order to restore America to greatness...
One of the most common questions Charlie receives from young campus conservatives is why America should support Israel. The Bible says that God will bless those who bless Israel — but is the modern state founded in 1948 the same as the one from 2500 years ago? Dr. Jeff Myers makes the case that backing Israel remains both a Christian duty and an important step for combating the danger of radical Islam. Plus, Raheem Kassam breaks do...
Donald Trump is up big in the Arizona polls, so the state's radical Democrat AG is using emergency measures: Bringing sweeping charges against nearly 20 Trump supporters, including Turning Point's Tyler Bowyer. Charlie steps up to defend his friend and American political liberty.

Speaker Mike Johnson made a lot of promises the past six months: On the border, on Ukraine, on spending, and more. All those promises culminated in a humiliating submission to President Biden, complete with apology. Rep. Eli Crane joins Charlie to talk about how the Speaker let Republicans down...and how he's facing a primary challenge for being one of the Republicans who wants the party to shape up.

Joe Biden's new Title IX rules will let men compete against women, change clothes with women, shower with women, and more — and if anyone complains, they're the ones who will face punishment. Paula Scanlan, a former UPenn swimmer who was forced to have "Lia" Thomas as a teammate, describes the horrifying experience of living through the "abolition of women." Plus, Twitter's "Bronze Age Shawty" joins to discuss her Elon Musk-funded ...
Congress has finally gone and banned TikTok — but conveniently left it so the ban won't take effect until after the election. Charlie weighs in on whether the ban was a good idea, and whether it could hurt Biden with the youth vote, especially as young people struggle to find any kind of success in Joe Biden's America.

The right is falling into a lot of infighting lately, but make no mistake: So is the left. From Columbia to California, left-wing college campuses are having their worst meltdowns yet over the Gaza war, and with that war showing no signs of stopping, it could easily become the wedge issue that ruins the fragile Biden coalition at the worst possible time.

Wall Street veteran and "All In" host David Sacks joins Charlie for an hour-long discussion on why, exactly, it's so important that America remain in a cold war with Russia. Why is a country on the far side of the world, with a long border with China, our enemy instead of a potential ally? And how long will Washington insist on diluting America's military and economic strength to keep a foolish war going as long as possible?

SCIF, SCIF, SCIF. To most Americans, it's a meaningless acronym. To Surrender Caucus of the GOP, it's the excuse for why we need to cancel the Constitution in favor of endless power to the Deep State. But what actually is a SCIF, and what's the compelling intelligence that is supposedly revealed in one? Rep. Thomas Massie has been there, and joins to explain why appeals to national security are a big fat scam. Plus, Sen. Mike Lee e...
All the promise of Mike Johnson's speakership crumbled to dust over the weekend, as Johnson gave Democrats everything they wanted on Ukraine, FISA, and more without a single concession on the border. Charlie tries to pick up the pieces and ask: Do Democrats already run the House again?

Nevada was once a ruby-red state, but now it has been blue for four elections in a row, and Democrats think it will remain that way. But Charlie thinks that a great reversal may be imminent, thanks to a fresh mobilization of churchgoing Americans. Because, as Charlie explains, politics just means "business of the city" — so why would churches ignore it? Charlie also takes questions on reviving marriage and more.
In this week’s ThoughtCrime, Charlie Kirk, Jack Posobiec, Andrew Kolvet, and Blake Neff answer many crucial questions, including:
-Is it moral to lie in order to get on the Trump jury?
-Will AI girlfriends replace real ones?
-Can the American regime be reformed, or only destroyed?

Shocking, but true: It turns out those people smugly lecturing all of us on National Public Radio were a bunch of liberals all along. Anti-woke muckraker Chris Rufo joins Charlie to expose the shocking (or not-so-shocking) radicalism of NPR's CEO, and also discusses his recent debate with Curtis Yarvin about whether America needs reform or a revolution. Plus, Kane of Citizen Free Press reacts to the hugely-disappointing news from t...
RFK just landed on the ballot in Michigan, and right on cue, a new poll shows that RFK's presence gives Trump a small lead in Great Lakes State. Charlie explains why the surge of third party candidates improves Trump's chance of victory, and makes a big announcement about Turning Point's own efforts in Michigan.
