There's a lot of news happening and the terrible shooting that happened late last night in New York City. We are going to dive into that in just a moment, but we want to dive right into a very important news story. Why is the Senate failing to confirm Trump's nominees?

Of course, Democrats are largely to blame for this. Republicans can do more. Joining us now is a great man, someone who made time to come on the program. And I was guest hosting on Fox and Friends weekend. And I greatly appreciate it. Senator Mark Wayne Mullin from Oklahoma. Senator, great to see you. Uh, as you know, I'm a little fired up about this.

Uh, this is something that I'm losing patience because I have 10, 12, 15 friends that are waiting to get confirmed. People like Sarah Rogers at department of state, people like Brent Bozell ambassadors, and so Senator, I want you to, I'm going to give you the first opening here. And this is not a criticism of you at all, Senator. I'm just expressing the rage of the audience. So please, first, Senator, build out the current plan and we'll go from there. Senator Mark Wayne Mullin.

So let me walk through what's happening. First of all, I think it's, I think the context is important. First of all, this time last year, or last year, this time in Trump 45, we only had 55 confirmed nominees. We have 108 right now. Thune said at this at the beginning of his leadership of the Senate, he said the Democrats can either work with us and we can do it the easy way or we can do it the hard way, which is why we have been in D.C. voting on the floor more consecutive days than any time in the last 10 years, and we have cast more votes than any Senate in the last 35 years.

But to say this, to put it also on context, out of 108 confirmations, the Democrats have filibustered 107 of them. That has never happened in the history of the president of the United States with his nominees, ever. And I spoke to the president in length about this this weekend. He wasn't even aware of that. And the only nominee that they haven't filibustered is Marco Rubio. So they drag out the time.

And the fastest we can get these nominees done is roughly three-and-a-half hours. And that's if the Democrats, they don't have they don't use any privileged motions or a motion to discharge or a privileged motion to recess. They don't ask for a quorum call. All those muddy it up every time they do that. And so, and then, at the same time, we have 55 nominees that have come out of committee and with bipartisan support. Now, there isn't any reason why we can't use see those, which, when I say you see, a unanimous

consent without even taking a vote. But because the Democrats are gumming the system up, it's put us at a serious disadvantage. So we are pushing as hard as we can underneath the circumstances, and we're dealing with really a time in the Senate that the Senate has never seen on nominees. I was literally, before I got on the show, talking to a Democrat about having a package,

because they don't wanna be here in August. We as Republicans are willing to do whatever it takes. Yeah. And so they are actually talking now about negotiating a package on a certain number of bipartisan nominees. And I dealt with it all weekend long, dealing with my Democrat colleagues, dealing with the White House, dealing with the President, and dealing with Leader Democrat colleagues, dealing with the White House, dealing with the President, and dealing with Leader Thune.

Well, and look, so here's my thing. And Senator, thank you for working on that. Number one, this is a great example of how Democrats always play hardball and we play softball. We did not do this to Biden's nominees because we want the country to run. We think, okay, and in some ways, we feel better about ourselves when we do that.

We're polite. We're very cautious. We don't want to, you know, uproot a system. But the reason why I think this is getting so many people animated, myself included, is that it's now time for us to not take the kind of procedural high road or break tradition. But I'm not even talking about breaking tradition. Senator, you hit on this, and I think this is the only way that we need to proceed, which is listen,

the Democrats, we know what they don't want. And in a negotiation, when you know breaking points, you can easily get to what you want. If you announced right now that you are going to have 18 to 20 hour voter-ramas all August, Senator, wouldn't you agree by day three the Democrats will be broken and they will basically give you guys what you want? Is that a plan that is being considered? Because the Democrats, they're not going to work all August, Senator.

Well, so this is the dynamics behind this too. Keep in mind, during a voter-rama, we have to have a quorum call. There only requires one Democrat to be here. So every Republican would have to be here, one Democrat. So they could do this forever because they could just have one Republican that, Chris Murphy basically lives in the Capitol because he's auditioning for president. He would, he would just stay here and rotate in people in and out. So there's a way that they can work around that. They don't, I mean, what do they care if they miss a nominee vote? But the problem is that they were to call a quorum call any time during that time, and we couldn't produce 51 votes, which we have older members. That recess appointment,

they could, the recess, they could put us into recess for an indefinite amount of time. So, there's, because of the ridiculous rules that the Senate has and it's mind blowing that what we have to deal with, we always have to be cautious on how we're moving. But I will tell you, I'll repeat this, Charlie. Well, leader Thune has said this. We will do whatever it takes. So we are, we're planning on pushing forward and staying here in August, as long as we can

put 51 votes on the floor. And because we have to have that, it takes all 51 of us Republicans. It can't take 49 of us, because there's four that could bail and put us in a bad situation. Remember, the only time J.D. can cast a vote is if it's breaking a tie. So, we have to have at least 50 here at all times. But we feel very confident that the Democrats will cave and they will start working on a package. Yes, that's the key. And this is the bait we had just a second ago, Charlie. I mean, I won't mention the

Democrats' name, but on the elevator ride down here to my little hideaway, which is a cave, but on my way down here, I said, listen, you guys talk about the temperature being high and how much your constituents just despise Trump and you guys have to fight. The temperature could not have been any higher than it was in 21. When Biden was in office, and this goes to your point, we still gave him 44 bipartisan nominees right before the August recess, which would be almost exactly to the same day right now. And I said, so don't tell me about your constituent base.

Our base couldn't have been fired up more than any less than your constituent base, and we still did it. So these bipartisan, the 55 that we have, we ought to be able to work out a number that you guys are willing to accept. And so you're highlighting something, you're correct that a Voturama, they just need one person as a stand-in. And look, I'm glad we have the majority. You and I both know we got some octogenarians, they go to bed at 4 p.m., right? So it's not exactly,

just the way it is. Look, I'm glad we have Grassley, but you know, he's he's on farmer time. But here's the key, though, in every deliberative legislative body, the Democrats want something. They want something. They either want to have representation in an omnibus. They want they are they they're they're showing their cards. You have to withhold whatever they want. And sometimes you can force

votes where they want to be present during the month of August. You get what I'm saying? There are some votes where they want to be present for, right? You guys can do committee hearings where they want to be present for. So you put together a massive deal that breaks their will and be like, hey, we're going to get our people. And look, I will offer a little grace to Senator Thune and to you guys. The one big, beautiful bill. Basically that was the priority. So it prevented some more nuclear options because everyone's like, Hey, we got to get this big, beautiful bill passed.

We'll get to personnel once that passed. So I get that. And so that's what we want to hear. But by Labor Day, we want a clean roster. At the very least, we want to see it where Trump's imperative critical nominees are not just in a waiting place. OK, Senator, you wanted to chime in there, please. So yes, you're 100% correct on this.

And it did create some issues. But to go nuclear on this and try to clear the slate, we have 100 and roughly 80 nominees that have been reported to the floor. If we stayed in every single day and used all the floor time available, the most we could probably get done is about three a day, if that's possible. I don't even think that's even possible to get done. I think it's more realistic because three and a half, it takes three and a half hours

per one. So two takes seven hours. That's if there's no procedural motions between, which they will do procedural motions to slow the process down. We still couldn't get it clean-slate. But we do work with the White House on the president's priorities. The president signs off on every single person that we put up here. Here's an option that we have talked about. And this is a nuclear option, this is just something we've talked about, is essentially ending the debate time on all bipartisan nominees. So if they get reported out of committee with bipartisan, even if it's one Democrat that votes for them,

that that would eliminate the two hours, because no one can say that two-hour debate or 30-hour debate has ever changed anybody's vote on the nominee. By the time it comes before, we already know where the votes are at. It's just a timing thing. Of course. It is. That's exactly right.

Yes. And so it's just a time for people to get their five minutes of fame on whatever catchy phrase they're going to have. This is every option is being talked about. The leadership table, Leader Thune is being talked about at the leadership table. Leader Thune is looking at it a very aggressive approach. However, to change that rule, technically it takes 67 votes in the Senate to change a rule. So we're trying to deal, we're trying to look into what rule we can use to bypass that. The rules in the Senate are, you want to beat

your head against the wall because it's what holds up everything, it's what gums up everything. And so, and these rules aren't constitutionally binding, but the vote is the way that is set up. And so to break it, that's the process we find ourselves into. But I, I, I can't express it enough. We are doing everything we can to actually break their will. And I think we may actually be able to do it right now. And President Trump is, is, is talking to us every day about it. Look, break their will, turn off the air conditioning, make life uncomfortable. If you make life uncomfortable for them.

And here's the, here. No, no, it's not thought. I look this, what they're doing is awful though, Senator. They're, they're supporting popular sovereignty and the will's the here. No, no, it's not thought. Look, this what they're doing is awful, though, Senator, they're holding popular sovereignty. And the will they may enough is enough. You turn the US Senate into a sweat lodge, that thing gets to 87 and humid, they will come groveling to you. I mean, seriously, you go do a thing they're gonna go, they're gonna go send us back to Aspen, send us to Kenny Bunkport. But look, we got to go in a second you got a dash Yeah, here's the kicker and I want you to tell your colleagues guys. We're not talking about going nuclear to pass a tax bill Okay, this is nuclear for personnel and a president deserve to have his people. So therefore the question is always well

What if the Democrats use it against us? Well, if the Democrats want nuclear to get their people in one day that they have a presidency They're kind of entitled to their people because that's the whole point of an election, okay? And so this is not that, this is not like a tradition that's being broken, that's going to destroy us in the future. This is not all of a sudden that this is a tradition that we're breaking that one day they can pass the Green New Deal with 50 votes. That's not what we're talking about, okay? This, they're the ones that are breaking tradition filibustering every single nominee. It's simply about personnel. Senator, please go back to your colleagues and express the fastball that you just experienced on the Charlie Kercher.

20 seconds. Yeah, you're absolutely correct on this. Harry Reid actually spoke about this in 99. Mitch McConnell gave a speech in 2017 that the presidents deserve to have their personnel in place. That's why we're looking at every option. I do want to defend one guy though. Chuck Grassley is, is, is not the problem.

I actually have other people. Chuck Grassley is the hardest working guy. I know. I love Chuck Grassley, but you and I, you and I both know the background we've got to go turn off the air conditioning. You'll get them all confirmed. Thanks, Charlie. Ask 10 people to define the word capitalism.

How many different responses do you think you'll get? This is a word that comes up all the time, but does anyone know what it really means? Do you?

Just to summarize what I was saying though with Senator Mark-Royn Mullen is that at every corner and every single turn, it seems as if we are the ones that are polite and that we are procedural and we are guarding tradition. The Democrats, they don't care about any tradition. Now we should be traditionalists because we're conservatives in our DNA. We like how things are. We don't want to change them. We don't want to be revolutionaries. I think that is a proper posture to have towards politics, just overthrowing the table and constantly playing into a French or Russian revolution mindset. That is not who we are. Edmund Burke wrote in the Reflections on the French Revolution about this,

that we as conservatives must be prudent and we must be intentional any time we are going to change laws or customs. But what we're talking about here is the Democrats have actually broken from tradition and that we are globbing on to tradition. Are we going to respond in kind? And I'm not joking about the air conditioning. Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution does it say, you know, Amendment 19, Senate must have air conditioning. What I'm getting at the air conditioning is half joking, half reality. It's make the Democrats uncomfortable.

They don't control the House. They don't control the Senate. They did not win the election. They got blown out. The popular to the Democrat Party is at the lowest levels imaginable. I'm using this as an example of what kind of mindset it takes to win. And you know what? I bet if you actually turn out the air conditioning, they'd be, you know, they'd go to the media, Chuck Schumer would be complaining and John Thunman's like the

air conditioning comes on when we get our nominees time to play hard ball. And I mean, look, there are some members of the U S of the U S Senate. That would not exactly do well in a US sauna called the US Senate. And just so we're clear, if John Thune set, I'm not kidding with this, if he turned off the air conditioning, the base of MAGA would think this guy would be a hero. He'd think it'd be, and he would kind of do it somewhat half-heartedly, but kind of jokingly, like don't be too serious about it if you're a Thune. Like, hey, air conditioning.

The founders didn't have air conditioning when they wrote the Declaration of Independence. There was no air conditioning in Independence Hall. So if you guys want to filibuster every single one, you guys want to go through every single one of these people, then we are going to turn this into a Swedish sweat lodge. And boy, I know, I don't know about you, but I do not want to see Dick Durbin in a Swedish sweat lodge and boy I know I don't know about you but I do not want to see Dick Durbin in a Swedish sweat lodge that alone the visuals of Dick Durbin in a Swedish sweat lodge look the point is this is that if you're going to try to appeal to the democrats virtue or higher calling they don't have a higher calling.

They don't want to see the border secure. You know they don't love the United States of America. They're at war against the American Republic. There is no appealing to their higher angels. There are no higher angels. There's only the lower demons of the Democrat Party. That's all it is. They are in the trenches of the scum rats of politics. We know this, okay?

So why are we trying to persuade and we're trying to create a deal? Break their will. They are taking the United States hostage. This is an active hostage political situation happening in the US Senate. And so how do you negotiate with hostage takers? Do you say, well, Chuck Schumer,

can you please allow 20 more nominees to get through? Go hardball. Come up with 10 things. Cutting the air conditioning, stripping them off committees. And look, I like the language I'm hearing from Thun. I like the language I'm hearing from Markway Mullen. One of the things I don't like is when they say, you know, we've confirmed more nominees any time.

That's not, that is not applicable. Back in 2017, we had Russiagate, we had Bob Mueller, we failed on the healthcare vote, and Donald Trump was a surprise victor in 2016. The country was profoundly more left-wing in 2016 than it is today. That is a low bar. So don't all of a sudden act as if, well, we're really accomplishing because we're beating what we happen in 1.0. Okay, that was like a minimum threshold back in Trump 1.0. Minimum standard threshold. Here is John, it's a long clip, I don't have time to play. John Thune is basically saying, these are guys by the way, they get in, what is the Senate work schedule? The Senate work schedule is you get in on Tuesday afternoon and you

leave Thursday at lunch. How many of you in this audience would be able to feed a family, be able to pay a bill, be able to fulfill your mortgage obligation if you worked from Tuesday afternoon to Thursday at lunch? So what they need to do is announce an all-Aug August work campaign. We're gonna go every single day, and we are going to go every vote, and there will be no air conditioning Democrats. It's going to become uncomfortable. And then if you want your comfort back, if you wanna go do your fundraisers in Napa Valley,

if you wanna go to French Laundry alongside Gavin Newsom, if you guys wanna go to Aspen and Kenny Bunkport and Jackson Hole, and you guys wanna be able to go to the Yellowstone Club amongst all the ruling class members that you guys pander to, if you want to go rub elbows and sip champagne amongst the oligarchs of American society, we will release you if you let us have Trump's people. If, until then, there will be no air conditioning, there will be no bottles of water, well, there might be bottles of water.

That's a little cruel. But we're going to make this uncomfortable for the Democrats because we are in charge and we won the election and Chuck Schumer did not. Hey, everybody. Charlie Kirk here.

Last night was a terrible story. I was watching the Cubs game, just kind of enjoying a relatively light day for all things being equal and this terrible story of the New York city shooting.

Materialized. So here is what we know is that a shooter drove all the way. I'm trying not to use his name a shoot cause I think it only, there's a whole philosophy I have around with it. And Ben Shapiro said that once and I agree with him completely. And basically don't, don't use shooters names only gives them more unearned notoriety. Anyway, so he drives, yeah, don't promote evil, but we'll talk about the situation. This disgusting person drove all the way from Las Vegas to New York.

Wasn't from there came out with a pretty serious weapon. I don't know the exact weaponry. So I don't want to misspeak goes to a building, uh, was an M four really well, um, where Blackstone and the NFL is. Gets basically starts spraying fire, kills a couple of people goes up to the 33rd floor, kills an executive from Blackstone. Just a terrible situation. And all of this was happening basically live on cable television as it was

happening. So a couple, just to be clear, as you guys know, I hosted Fox and Friends weekend this last weekend. I was in New York just blocks away from where this happened, walking those very same streets with my family. And so I sent out a tweet last night that was, I think, really not controversial at all. And people, they read stuff into it that has really no applicability to what I was actually saying. And so basically what I said last night, someone could pull up the tweet.

I'm sure let me try to find it here is essentially this that. And everyone says Charlie Kirk torched for reaction in New York City shooting. Now I wasn't torched. It's just complete BS was this was just in New York City all weekend with our family. Never felt safe. So many people in the city who don't belong praying for all involved. So what do I mean by not belonging? Well, let me tell you what I mean by not belonging.

When you're walking down Fifth Avenue with your wife and your two-year-old daughter, and there are homeless people tweaking out because they are overdosed on drugs, hunched over with a scarecrow look, barking, screaming at your wife and at your daughter, yeah, they don't belong in New York City. Now, of course, that does not necessarily applicable

with this story of what we saw in New York City. But when that does something to you when you're walking the streets of a major city and they are yapping at your kids, you put 334, every single liberal, and many alleged conservatives tried to attack me on Twitter last night. Whatever. Okay. They're like, oh, New York's homicide rate is lower than other places. Actually, it's violent crime rate.

Do you know the violent crime rate in New York City is higher than Boston and Chicago? So, yes, the murder rate is lower, but the violent crime rate is actually higher. And so what do I mean by people that don't belong? These people deserve to go to mental wards. Some of them. If you are on the street of New York and you're either defecating, you are overdosing on drugs, or if you are lunging and barking at, and you've all experienced this in a major metropolitan city, where the homeless person is like crunched over, they obviously have just taken some drugs, and they should not be out there yelling in front of two-year-olds or three-year-olds and people say oh Charlie how do you not feel safe in New York. At another situation there were just

random people that would be going up like five feet away from Erica and I filming us and then homeless people lunging at us. It is not the city that it was 10 years ago. I'm very relieved that everything was fine and so it's very close to home. So anyway, it's a non-story, just a tweet I sent out. I'll say it again. Was just the New York City all weekend with our family? Never felt safe. So many people in the city who don't belong praying for all involved.

And I was glad, of course, to be there for Fox and Friends, obviously. But when you have little kids and you are walking the streets in New York and we had security thoughts, it was fine. But but again and then every third person is noticing you which is very nice and very kind not all positive I could tell you not it's not exactly a fan fest let's just put it this way it's not Lubbock Texas walking the streets in New York very thankful obviously Fox and Friends treated me so well but let's get down to the more important story here. Cause that's just, that's a little silly sideshow, but just to quote unquote clarify what I was

saying. Who doesn't belong the homeless mental ward types that are overdosing on drugs lunging at people. They don't belong. Okay. So not to mention the tens of thousands of legals at the Roosevelt hotel, you don't belong or the people that have immigrated to the, to New York City and they don't assimilate and they're breaking laws do not belong. So yes, there's a lot of people in New York that do not belong but you say that it just drives the left crazy. Here's what scares me about this situation

though the most is that we're seeing this disturbing rise of targeted assassinations inspired by this Maggioni creep. And Maggioni has some philosophical connective tissue with Mamdani, where Mamdani, of course, is not calling for violence. He doesn't want to defund the police and all that. But Maggioni and Mamdnie, they both have a bitterness, resentment-driven view of success. Poverty is the norm. Having no money is how we entered into this world. We entered into this planet with nothing, and we have had to build civilization.

When you have had an opportunity to travel to the third world, like I have. You see what it's like to have nothing. No running water, no toilets. Civilization is not the norm. It is the exception. So how do we view that excess success in the West? We want to be careful that of course, that we don't have excess and that people still have some equity in the system.

But you take it for granted. Now, Maggioni and this shooter last night, they both had serious mental cases and they should, that's a whole separate topic that we should explore. But Mom Donnie is the political representative of Maggioniism. Mom Donnie represents you hate the corporate types you're not making enough money you have resentment driven politics you have anger towards the system elect me and I will burn it all down now this we don't quite know the motive yet for this young man that did this, this evil person that went into 345 Park Avenue. We don't know the entire story. We say that it's CTE or NFL related, but again, that is still being built out.

So the, and CTE by the way, just so we're clear is chronic traumatic. Boy, that's quite a word. chronic, traumatic, boy that's quite a word, ankylopathy, which is CT. Let's play cut 336 of Eric Adams, but then it gets even darker of how the media covered it. Let's play cut 336. Tell us about the apparent suicide note that was in the shooter's pocket. He alluded to having CT from playing in the NFL. He never played in the NFL.

And he alluded to the CTE being the reason for his illness. It appears as though he was going after the employees at the NFL, the building, 345 house, the NFL's company there as well. But we're still going through the suicide note to zero in on the exact reason. But at this time, it appears as though something that is attached to his belief he experienced CTE from playing in the NFL. In some ways that gives us some clarity okay that's what this guy was. He was targeted obviously very disturbed very murky the whole thing is very murky because he ended up then on the floors of Blackstone 33 floors up and killed a Blackstone executive which is just terrible should not happen and so we'll see if more information comes out there. However, how did the media cover it?

This just goes to show they have this default setting to what? To blame white people. They have a default setting to blame white people. This goes right back to the hate crime that we saw in Cincinnati of the black mob that was going after those white people. The baseline introductory thought when you are hosting a cable television show and there is breaking news is it's okay to blame a white person, even though this guy was obviously not white. I think he was like a mix of black and Asian. It doesn't matter. The point is that they were racializing. It's like the reflex is it must be a white person.

They are trained to hate white people so much and to identify it as white people. And you know who else blames white people? Mom Donnie blames white people. Do you see the connective tissue between Magione, between this lunatic and Mom Donnie? Mom Donnie is the political mascot of these one-off crimes that we have seen in New York City. I'm not saying Mom Donnie supports it,

but there is philosophical congruity. There is a connective part here. And it really shows the mentality of the press. They hate white people. This is an extraordinary piece of tape, Playcut 325. They do not know who he is. They know he is a male, possibly white. He's wearing sunglasses.

He appears to have a mustache. And that picture has been distributed to every police officer in New York City, particularly has been sent to the phones of the search teams inside that building. Possibly white. And this is a white guy that's saying that on TV. No, no, he's not possibly white. He was very much not white. The progressive white people have such self-loathing. And by the way, Aaron Burnett then repeated it. Does that look like a possibly white suspect? They racialized this right out of the gate, completely unnecessarily.

And we're the ones that are always talking about, we're getting accused of racializing our politics. No, we're not. We're actually trying to deracialize our politics. We don't want to talk about race all the time. It's shallow. It's not interesting. It's rudimentary. It's not deep. The first image was 368. He does not look white in this for the record at all. So why is that? It's because there is a deliberate war on white people being waged by the mainstream media and our leaders. CNN saw that image and still said white.

America's small businesses rely on TikTok to succeed. We go viral on TikTok, reaching billions of young people every year. It's one of the reasons why we were able to win the youth vote. Well, TikTok helps businesses attract more customers and drive growth from small batch sellers to fast growing brands. 74% of businesses on TikTok say it's helped them scale by hiring more employees, boosting sales and expanding to new locations like Arizona Taco King, who grew from a mom and pop taco cart to two thriving restaurants in just a year or Cocoa Santa, who upgraded to a larger facility and brought on more staff,

letting their handcrafted chocolates reach more customers or Dan O's seasoning, who went from one man show to team of 45 now supporting dozens of hardworking families with t tock. Small businesses are thriving, finding their customers and expanding. Learn more about tick tock's contribution to the U S economy at tick tock economic impact.com tick tock economic impact.com. So I want to dive deeper into the connective tissue here. So, so look, Zoran Mamdani, he's such a, obviously, he's such a fraud. So he

goes down, he does this debate, oh, I will not leave New York City and I will stay, you know, very loyal to New York City. And then he goes down to a wedding in Uganda. Now, I'm not one to defend Mamdani. I don't think Mamdani thought he was going to win the Democrat for his wedding, which is even worse. I don't think he thought he was going to win the Democrat primary, probably when he was planning his wedding, to be honest. And so he was probably stuck between a rock and a hard place. He should have canceled this wedding. It's a bad look, Mr. Islamist Marxist, bad look.

And look, Zoran Mamdani, I guess they technically got married in February and then he's doing this bash in Uganda as a celebration. He's a typical Neiman Marxist. The neighborhood is home to some of Uganda's richest, including billionaire businessman Godfrey Kuruma, the city tycoon with stakes in real estate, tourism and petroleum and infrastructure. I didn't know Uganda had a billionaire.

That's interesting. Some of the houses neighboring the Mamdani easily fetch more than 1 million US dollars. I guess the Ugandan economy is doing better than I thought it was, but he wants to bring Ugandan values or I guess or third world ideas, I won't say the Ugandan values, third world ideas into the United States of America. But do you see the how this all connects together? And the hypocrisy is part of it, but it's not about hypocrisy. It's about hierarchy. It's about I am better than you are, that I am above you, that I supersede you in importance.

And that is where socialism always leads you. It always does. And Zoram Amdani is likely to become the next mayor of New York City. I mean, Andrew Cuomo trying his best and Eric Adams, who's all over the place, and they're all welcome on our show. But at its core, liberals will espouse and they will verbalize a certain political philosophy that they themselves will not live. Zoran Mamdadi wants to take away all the guns, but he'll be protected by armed guards. Zoran Mamdadi wants to be able to have no one be rich, but he will go party in a private

compound. Zoran Mamdadi wants to be able to have no one be rich, but he will go party in a private compound. Zoran Mamdani wants to say that he will send his kids to private school and be educated in private school, but he wants to shut down school choice in New York City. He wants to seize the means of production while he allows himself to have a higher standard living. He wants to tax whiter neighborhoods. Do you see how this all is tied together? CNN blames white people, the war on white people in the streets of living. He wants to tax whiter neighborhoods. Do you see how this all is tied together? CNN blames white people, the war on white people in the streets of Cincinnati. All of this is interwoven together. It is grievance based politics. It is tribalism at its core. And so Mamdani is ushering an entire generation that owns nothing towards a sectarian, tribalist political end and project.

But I just find it so interesting that of all the places to have a wedding celebration, he goes to Uganda. And I want to put up one of the pictures of him in this private compound. You know, it's lost on this. So that compound is lit up, looks very nice. But do you see that there are like pseudo military guys outside there with AK-47s? I don't want to live in that country. I don't want to have the successful, the entrepreneurs and the rich have to have a

compound with barbed wire and military members outside to protect you. That is how Brazil lives. That is how Mexico lives. That is how the third world, the third world has rich people, but it doesn't have a middle class and it does not allow you to have success in the open and that's where Mangione and Mamdani are cousins, politically not literally. There were literally cell phone jammers outside of the compound and that is what America will be. It's not that the rich

will no longer exist, that anyone with success will either flee or have to hide in a compound. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at CharlieKirk.com.
