Starting point is 00:00:00 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 going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You've got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as much.
Starting point is 00:00:30 many kids as possible. Go start a turning point USA College Chapter. Go start a turning point you would 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.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Lord, use me. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold. leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends, and viewers. Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome once again to another Thursday edition of Thoughtcrime. It is Thought Crime Thursday, and the Thought Crimes will always continue.
Starting point is 00:01:21 I am Jack Posobic coming to you from the remote studio, but back in Phoenix, I believe, We've got two of my compatriots in person. Who we got in Phoenix, guys? We got Andrew Colvette and Tyler Boyer, who just made it in by the skin of his seat. He weasles in right as your intro was going to be. It's been a busy day. No, he's wearing the Sun Devil hoodie thing. Yeah, I don't know if you heard, but ASU defeated a top 10 team this week.
Starting point is 00:01:51 No big deal. No big deal. We're going back to the playoff. We're talking sports. Jack, just be happy about that. We're talking sport. No, no, that's, I mean, I'm happy for you. No, I mean, I love you, you know, I love you like more than a friend. But, um, I'm just saying it kind of, just kind of looks like you got some birthday PJs
Starting point is 00:02:11 because it was Tyler's big 4-0, uh, what, yesterday. So here we are. Welcome to the club, buddy. Yeah, ASU won a top 10 game. And then yesterday for the opener, the sons defeated the Sacramento Kings. So the sons, I'm happy. The sons are hot. The sons are hot for your birthday. He's got, he's got the, he's got the, He's got the forkum hat on, which I literally thought said something else.
Starting point is 00:02:35 I got a high-five Devin Booker last night, so I'm good. Yeah, you got to be really careful when you read the Forkham hat and like when you say the Forkum hat. Yeah, I was very careful to articulate. We had people last year, it was, I mean, this is kind of thought cramie. Last year when ASU went to the Peach Bowl, they had stuck the fork inside the peach. And it was not a good visual. That is not crimy This is a perfect time to bring up
Starting point is 00:03:02 Cliff Maloney He's streaming in from a remote location as well Where are you at? I am in Pittsburgh gentlemen I'm in Pittsburgh we're fighting a fight here in PA But traversing all over the world As you guys know no days to rest We got 12 12 days to election day
Starting point is 00:03:18 Thank you for all your hard work in New Jersey Yeah why don't we start there It's not on the script give us a quick Cliff's notes which is pun intended Cliffs notes I love the Cliffs notes of the PA, but really NJ and VA. Yeah, so real quick, in Pennsylvania, you know, we've decided to double down. So the Pennsylvania Chase is not going to be a once every four-year thing, not every other year.
Starting point is 00:03:41 You know, it's a permanent infrastructure. And obviously you guys are, you know, three of the only people in the world that understand that and get what we're trying to do. So we're knocking another 500,000 doors in Pennsylvania. We've got 118 full-time people on the ground right now. But as people do get distracted by Sean. objects, New Jersey. We did launch the New Jersey Chase program. And so we've got 105 additional folks in New Jersey, 10 Airbnbs throughout the state. And this is my report on how it's looking.
Starting point is 00:04:10 If you would have asked me six months ago, I would have said, I'm not sure if Jack has a shot. Jack Chidorelli has a shot. And as Jack Posovic would say, NJ is in play. The numbers right now tell us we're about five and a half percent in a better position than Jack was four years ago when he was running for governor, that's not enough to win. I want to say this. We've been as honest as we can be here when we get out to talk to some of our viewers. That is not enough to win. Jack is going to have to continue to climb with vote by mail,
Starting point is 00:04:39 and then most importantly, he's going to have to do very well with early voting and dominate election day. But the good news is that this thing is a race. It's dead heat. We're seeing polling that's matching. And so we've just got to finish the deal. We've got 12 days to try to flip New Jersey, which I didn't think was in.
Starting point is 00:04:56 my vocabulary until about a couple months ago. Wow. That's awesome. And by the way, not only to mention that, but your NJ. Chase efforts are going to be bolstered because I believe Tyler Boyer made a pretty interesting turning point action first time ever announcement yesterday on his birthday. What's that we have? Yeah, Tyler, let's tee you up. Give us the rundown. We've got two big events, super chase events that we're doing in New Jersey. So we want to make those as huge as possible. I know, I think Cliff, I think you're going to be there for them. Yes, sir. And so we're going to be driving as many volunteers as we possibly can because our technology can support getting out people basically in rapid speed out knocking doors and talking to voters. And that's what we're going to need to do in the final week.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Yeah, we have the graphic in the thought of the chat. We'll grab it. We'll throw it back up here so everyone can see it. But those are two big events. So you can go to tpaction.com slash superchase slash NJ. that's tpaction.com slash superchase slash nj and if you're in the tri-state area if you're in the uh south jersey philadelphia area uh you know maryland dc area uh yeah there it is you can make your way up and come join us for uh both these events ones on sunday november 3rd at 3 p.m
Starting point is 00:06:15 and ones on monday november 4 uh i'm sorry i'm blind i got it Sunday, November 2nd, at 3 p.m. And Monday, November 3rd at 4 p.m. So I literally just read that same mistake, like 20 minutes ago. And I was talking to Tanya about something because I'm, no announcements, but I'm going to see if I can break away from family stuff because it's like Halloween weekend, but I'm going to see if I can break away to come to at least one of those. I mean, it's so close. So I figure, you know, sneak over, do something, and then sneak back. And we'll definitely see.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Look, NJ is the play, NJ is the thing. And by the way, guys, we should also mention, since we're all here right now, I'd love if we could all get together for election night next week. Oh, yeah. It's going to happen. We will be broadcasting. We will. Do not fear this show will be live.
Starting point is 00:07:09 We were broadcasting. See, there's one big problem, though. My crappy headquarters in Harrisburg, we, after the big win, we decided to give it a paint job. So I can't fully reenact election night. But I will be in Harrisburg. So I would love to join you guys. There it is. Mark it on your calendars, folks.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Mark it on your calendars. We're going to get out. I mean, I think there's very few better ways to honor Charlie Kirk than streaming on election night. I mean, it's just it's basically written in stone at this point. We will be streaming on election night. Right, Jack? Not only are we going to be streaming, but I'm going to be sitting right next to you, buddy, out there in Phoenix, right in my apportioned seat. where I was one year ago and Andrew
Starting point is 00:07:51 I'll bring in you another tasty cake dude I still got that tasty cake in my back I want some I want to watch that thing that thing will last that thing will last through the apocalypse and it never goes bad yeah they I think they sell them at my patriot supply dot com slash slash Kirk because they will last over 25 years
Starting point is 00:08:15 they will doesn't matter if tasty cakes are Philly tough they will not burn in a fire they will not no no you cannot destroy a tasty cake using conventional methods yeah you can't flood it you can't burn it you can't while we while we're on the topic in new jersey and we've got uh cliff here cliff do you happen to know i'm sorry to just bring this on you do you happen to know what the the democrat vote advantage was going until election day and four years ago i'm not sure what it was um i do know it's very different than Pennsylvania you know what I mean it's a it's a much larger gap the current number you're going to probably correct me is what the registration gap set no well I mean I'm talking about the
Starting point is 00:08:56 actual returns right now the return advantage of the Democrats have over Republicans is about 175,000 as if I think that was yesterday um so that that may have been today actually so that's that was my question was if you had handy what the number was was heading into election day, what the advantage was for Democrats four years ago. I can pull it up. No, but I can, yeah, I can pull it. But what I'll tell you that's interesting, and you guys know this because you operate in a bunch of states.
Starting point is 00:09:30 I don't operate in that many states, right? Pennsylvania, the one thing that we do have is they're very transparent about requests, about returns by party, but even more importantly, the votes by method. You know, New Jersey is kind of a fascinating because it's much, I mean, you can get to it, but it's much tougher to find. But now, I'll pull that. I mean, the thing I mentioned earlier, the 5.5% that is this far out from the election.
Starting point is 00:09:52 If you look at the returns by party, we are 5.5% better than we were. I'm not sure where that is on raw. But to me, I like to look at the trends of the percentage because then it's based on, okay, not just what Republicans are returning, right? But what are the Democrats doing as well? But let me pull it.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Yeah. Well, I just don't want in the chat, if you guys want to see. Yeah. For 25 general, 24, 22, et cetera. It's by county. It's a lot of numbers, so I don't let Tyler do that. But I believe the return rate is about neck and neck, and I have that out of Decision Desk.
Starting point is 00:10:26 So Michael Proustroo over in decision. Look, we're already doing the election live stream. Decision desk has it at neck and neck 50-50 with a dem raw advantage at 174,000. And Tyler, I know you were talking about this on the chart. Charlie Kirk show yesterday, but look, if Republicans are going to win this, it's going to come down to that day of turnout. It's going to come down to really needing to just blow out. And look, and here's the thing. That was the same thing we did last year, right? Republicans won on day of, but the difference was we came into election day with a bank of votes already built up. That was the point of the PHAs. That was the point of turning point action all across the targeted states, the swing states. And so the seven swing states, we all remember them. And the entire point was that if you come into election day with a bank of votes already, then you have your E-Day wave. That could be enough to put you over the top, whereas before we weren't banking those votes, we weren't chasing. We didn't have Cliff Maloney and the Maloney method to come out
Starting point is 00:11:27 there. It's like Maloney ball over here where he's coming in and putting it all, you know, putting it all in bank so that we have something to actually springboard into. And this is what Charlie talked about all the time in 2022. And he said, and he could see it happening. in real time that the Dems just kept dipping into that reserve, whereas we didn't have one. Yeah. And this is what was the separator with us here in Arizona and why we felt so comfortable going into Election Day was we were trending about five to six percent ahead of the Democrats. That was our goal was we wanted to remain upwards of five percent better than Democrats in early returns.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Talking about Arizona? Yeah, in Arizona. And so, I mean, that's, we're seeing that. And I mean, that's the name of the game, right? Is get out ahead of the Democrats as on return percentage, you know, you just mentioned, Jack, that, that, you know, the Democrat return percentage is reflecting very similar numbers to what the Republican return percentages right now. The Republicans have actually been out ahead of the Democrats until this point. Yeah, they just, they just closed that gap in match stuff. And Pruser said that was to be expected.
Starting point is 00:12:41 that's what he expected anyways, which is really interesting. But that's, I mean, name of the game moving forward, especially in these states, these states that we have to win, if President Trump isn't successful at eliminating mail and ballots in totality, you're going to have to chase them to stay out ahead of them in order to give ourselves the best chance possible on election day, especially when, again, inclement weather can happen or, you know, just people wake up on the wrongs of the bed that day the national tragedy could happen uh you know just there's lots of things that can impact one election day uh which again i for you know everybody that's listening here i'm in full
Starting point is 00:13:26 support of going back to how things used to run which is you know one big election day you know we all the ballots we support the president completely on that but if the if it's not eliminated you know we have to unfortunately play by these stupid rules that have been put into place by you know leftists they've been trying to manipulate our elections now for decades so that's what we're up against the new jersey well and that's what we'll be up against the united states that's a michael pruser tweet i just put it in the chat here guys says new jersey vote by mail file is in for 1023 democrats flip the return rate margin picking up 54 basis points and adding nearly 9,500 votes to their raw turnout lead so now you can see that republic
Starting point is 00:14:07 Republican return rate is at 50.20%. Democrat return rate just slightly higher at 50.26%. And so the raw vote edge is about 175,000 for the Dems. So he goes on to explain that the day of the day we all expected has arrived. Democrats have now returned to higher rate of ballots and are likely to expand their lead to something around approximately 3% when all votes have been counted, including those that show up after election day. Return pace will continue to slow as roughly 70% of all expected absentee ballots have been returned. So, but that doesn't mean, so it's all going to come down to election day then, Jack, and that's why the Superchase events, getting the rah-rah out, getting people aware,
Starting point is 00:14:50 making some, making some noise, making some stink. So that's going to be huge, well-timed, because that's really going to be where it's all determined. This is Lane Schoenberger, Chief Investment Officer and founding partner of Y Refai. It has been an honor and a privilege to partner with Turning Point, and for Charlie to endorse us. His endorsement means the world to us, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Turning Point for years to come.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Now, hear Charlie in his own words tell you about Y-R-R-R-R-E-F-Y-F-Y. I'm going to tell you guys about Y-R-R-E-F-Y.com. Y-R-R-E-F-Y-Fi is incredible. Private Student Loan debt in America totals about $300 billion. Y-Refi is refinancing, distress, or defaulted private student loans.
Starting point is 00:15:32 You can finally take control of your student loan situation with a plan that works for your monthly budget. Go to Y-R-R-R-R-E-R-E-E-RU. Refi.com, that is Y-Refi.com. Do you have a co-borrower? Why, Refai, can get them released from the loan. You're going to skip a payment up to 12 times without penalty. It may not be available in all 50 states. Go to Y-R-R-E-F-Y.com. That is Y-R-E-F-Y.com. Let's face it, if you have distress or default to student loans, it can be overwhelming. Because of private-sident loan debt, so many people feel stuck, go to Y-R-R-R-E-F-Y-F-E-FY-Fy.com.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Private student loan debt relief, Y-refi.com.com. Yeah, and hopefully we can also get some messages out to all the voters, you know, in the name of Turning Point, letting people know and reminding people to vote. Election reminders are really important. That's the work that, you know, Cliff's doing on the ground with NJChace.org. Go to NJChase.org to follow what Cliff's doing and what his organization is doing there. But vote reminders are what is the most necessary thing. phone calls and text phone calls text you can go you can download the turning point action application right now you can you can join under make calls uh and send text uh to do that and help with that
Starting point is 00:16:49 there it is and so uh everybody that's within the sound of our voice i know that we've we beat this thing like a drum and it feels like 2024 all over again when we say these things you know we didn't get the job done enough in wisconsin with the supreme supreme court race we had put thousands of people on the ground doing this work, it still wasn't enough. The left has literally tens of thousands of people doing this work, left over from Obama era, where they have all these systems in place. And so you have to get used to just doing this work and spending a little bit time. I call it like going to church every week. You got to spend a few hours every week just doing the activist work as part of your lifestyle in America if you don't want the left to take over. And it's the same as going
Starting point is 00:17:30 to church, not the same as going to church. Church is more important. But It's the same... Not to the left. It's not. It's the same type of commitment, which is that you have to... To the left, you know, and this is one of the reasons... No, I do want to actually hit that because this is maybe a thought crime, and I know it's on the list, but who cares? This is what we do.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Going to... So like the no-kings protests and, you know, the phrase no kings, of course, comes from the French Revolution. No kings because they wanted to behead the king. That was the point of saying it, that for the right, going to church is your theological experience of the week. That's where you get your emotion. That's where you get your connection to God, your connection to community. For the left, participating in mass protests is their way of going to church. It is their theological activity of the week. It is religious. They have a
Starting point is 00:18:19 religious fervor for doing so. They believe that by taking part in it, that they are doing something for their religion. And in fact, they are because that is exactly what their belief system is. that their commitment to progressivism is beyond ideological. It is, in fact, a theology. It is a religious movement, and they believe it fully. Jack, are you suggesting that leftists, their ideology is beyond common sense, or it's nonsensical at times? They're willing to bend the truth to fit into their ideology?
Starting point is 00:18:51 Well, it's a pagan religion. It's a neo-pagan religion, and you see this certainly with their worship of the earth which goes back you know to gaia worship and and old religion old pagan religions you see it with their worship of again all earthly things because they don't actually believe in eternity so they have these pagan belief systems uh they also believe in crazy things that you can't see so they'll say like oh you know they'll say oh how can you can prove you you say you believe in god in jesus but you can't see god in jesus and angels and i say okay well you guys say you believe in things like systemic racism and the wage gap and none of those things exist in reality either
Starting point is 00:19:30 there. Well, I was trying to, I was about to do the, the Harry Sisson head bobbed for you, just Oh, you know, because, you know, because, uh, yeah, he's been sending me the Bobble meme like 10 times a day. I love the Bobble me. Just Harry Sissing a, uh, uh, Jack, uh, Jack. And, um, show me on the meme, the Bobblehead doll. Uh, where the meme hurt you. Guys, when he was doing that, and I was like, like, I was, you know, it's in Isabel Brown, the great Isabel Brown, um, was just going through chapter and verse, because I, I, was like well Kamala Harris did and he goes when and she's reading it off and I see him doing this and I honestly and I mean this in all sincerity I thought he was having some kind of medical
Starting point is 00:20:10 episode and I'm sitting there thinking like is this guy okay like I I hope he is honestly I hope he is because I have I have no idea what just happened we have to do the one with the sound effect the same thing when we were don't we have the one with the sound effect the same thing destiny did the same thing I didn't see that no he had like he had this weird like Twitch kind of thing where he was like looking off boneless posted the He just is weird Both of them together and
Starting point is 00:20:36 You could see it's just this very strange behavior I don't even know Yeah the way The way I describe it from a lot of A theater kid crash out a lot of people A lot of people on the left I find this thing where when they don't actually debate people That are bright on the right
Starting point is 00:20:53 Or that are articulate you know when they're just kind of in their echo chamber and then they have to have a conversation they just go to these weird emotions Right you like watch them in some of these interviews where they're just like they don't know how to articulate right because they're used to just getting a pre-pass and they're used to just hearing people praising them from their side that when somebody just calmly presents facts they have a complete meltdown they don't know how to react hold on you can tell that he might be a he might have been having a medical episode uh play clip
Starting point is 00:21:21 yeah yeah yeah exactly yeah exactly play it again play it again one more time They say to people who... Oh, wow, wow. Yeah, exactly. Oh, I love it. Anyways, that's not what I was trying to give you an off-ramp to, though. I don't like hearing... I don't like seeing his face and hearing the boeing sound.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I don't like that. It makes you feel very uncomfortable. So hold on. So that was a good moment, Jack. You got the better of Harry's system there big time. But here, I was trying to give you an off-ramp to Stephen A. Smith. I was trying to give you an off-ramp to Stephen A. Smith. I was trying give you the offer at to Stephen A. Smith talking about how
Starting point is 00:22:00 when you bend reality to fit your ideology, you sound like a cuckoo bird. And this is this is the first thought crime today, right? So it is, and you're right. Stephen A. Smith did say that. So I want to go back because we've
Starting point is 00:22:16 got an update. Everyone knows that we made the huge announcement, All-American halftime show Turning Point USA. Oh, we're going to a half-time show. I know there's been a lot of like fake news and fake set lists and fake rumors about who's coming up and showing up, and I may have participated in spreading some of that through, through, but I, you know, I don't have any burner accounts. I don't know what those things are, but we did mention this.
Starting point is 00:22:40 And I wanted to go back because the genesis of this, and I wanted to point out that the reason I mentioned something about the halftime show wasn't in a vacuum because there is someone who used to talk about the Super Bowl halftime shows every single year. I will vouch for you, Jack. Every year, Charlie would have to chime in at the halftime show. It's because he knew there were so many eyeballs on, like, Twitter, and now it's X. And so he would chime in, and it was, it was the funniest thing every year that, you know, I was telling, I was telling the guys. He would get matter and matter progressively as the years went on. So this is actually hilarious. So he got so used to the halftime show being like a degenerate mess.
Starting point is 00:23:25 that he sexual anarchy I believe yes I'm telling the sexual anarchy story so here's what happened
Starting point is 00:23:31 so he basically he basically had a preloaded thought in his head if I could just say that it was going to be sexual anarchy
Starting point is 00:23:42 well is this no no okay so he had it in his head so and I think he was sitting with his dad and you know
Starting point is 00:23:49 his dad kind of was riffing they were riffing on this idea together and what happened was go away and this is at a point where Charlie didn't have Twitter loaded on his phone
Starting point is 00:23:59 because he was trying to like purge himself from like it was a detox of of Twitter and so it was me and I think Daisy that like he would send his tweets to and then we would you know send him off for him at this point he called it like the submarine where he takes two keys
Starting point is 00:24:15 to fire off the the the weapon so so what happened the torpedo that's the word I was looking for so what happened was I'm you know, it's Super Bowl. I'm getting like a hot dog and I'm loading up my plate and the halftime show's going on. And it's like the tamest halftime show in about a decade. It was, it was, it was the rappers, Dr. Dre, some of those guys. And it was like, you know, the tamest,
Starting point is 00:24:47 tamest, tamest half time show. And he puts in a group chat, he's like, we need to hit sexual anarchy and I think the term was from David Englehart who's on the turning point board who had written a book about sexual anarchy or something so they were riffing off it was in charlie's head and he fires it off and wait I'm away from my phone for like five minutes five minutes in the halftime just getting food during the halftime show I looked back at my phone like because I opened Twitter and Charlie was already trending within five minutes of firing off this sexual Anarchy. Wait, was this Dr.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Dre, Snoop Dog, Eminem, Mary J. Blige. Yes, that was 2022. Yeah, it was like a bunch of aged rappers
Starting point is 00:25:27 who didn't, yeah, yeah, like sexual really at all. Yes, but so I, I was like, Charlie, why do we find us?
Starting point is 00:25:35 Like, why are we doing? Oh, it was when 50 cent came out. It wasn't, it wasn't like that sexual, but Charlie was like dogged about it.
Starting point is 00:25:41 He was like, no, play the clip. Play the clip back and like go frame by frame. It was, and he was, it was,
Starting point is 00:25:48 was that the one, Was that the one that was that State Farm Stadium? It could have been. Yeah, it was. No, that was the year before. No, no, no. This was a, it was a year before. It was a California.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Right. The State Farm where we had the memorial was also. So who was, so who was the act? It was Dr. Drey, Snoop Drop. It was Rihanna. Rihanna was in State Farm. I was there for it. I was there for it.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I was there. Oh, I was like, I love how Cliff knows this right up at the top of his head. It was Rihanna, Jack. Come on. So, anyway, so then, so then he goes through like clip by clip by by clip and he finds like one like backup dancer essentially maybe twerking it's arguable and he's like see look at it look at it sexual anarchy he was like determined to to like make his point he like could not be moved off of this point and I think we do we have the clip now 359 okay 359
Starting point is 00:26:41 this is I think Charlie the day after you know on the Monday after the Super Bowl defending his take on sexual anarchy. Look, the Super Bowl halftime show has a reputation. People say it's a spicy program. Okay, listen. Spicy. It's supposed to be boundary pushing.
Starting point is 00:27:00 When you have the most televised event, this is true, most televised event for the entire year, one of the most televised events on the planet, by the way, that should be a reflection of the virtue that hopefully you want society to embody.
Starting point is 00:27:16 See, he was still defending his take. And actually, I have to say his defense of it is pretty spot on because you do have this very family, like there's a lot of families watching. You have young kids and Charlie would always say that on the show. Like if we ever got too spicy, especially on this show because Jack would push him, he'd always be like, remember, we have 11-year-olds watching this. There's 12-year-olds that watch this. Don't forget them, too, right?
Starting point is 00:27:40 So it's a lot of college kids and all this stuff and young adults. Wow, passing the heat of posso. Yeah, well, you did. push that was you you know i may have gotten him into trouble with like media matters more and patriot takes but you got you you you push the the boundaries in other ways jack i don't know what you're talking about i was definitely not responsible for the public literacy meltdown yeah so but we should we should we should say we should say jack that the all the fake you know there's i've seen a bunch of lineups for the halftime show talks are ongoing there are no
Starting point is 00:28:13 official yeah we have a main announcements yes so i just want to read reiterate underscore bold italic but where but we're talking about how there was an announcement that came out about the super bowl halftime show from roger godell um i have no idea which number of the clip it is but guys can we play the i got it'll clip 324 decision to choose bad money as your super bowl halftime performer uh he's one of the leading and most popular entertainers in the world uh that's that's what we try to achieve it's an important important stage for us. It's an important element to the entertainment value. It's carefully thought through. I would say that I'm not sure we've ever selected an artist where we didn't
Starting point is 00:28:58 have some blowbacker criticism. It's pretty hard to do it when you have literally hundreds of millions of people that are watching. But we're confident it's going to be a great show. And he understands the platform that he's on and I think it's going to be excited. in a united moment uniting moment a uniting moment a uniting moment there's roger godell the great everybody loves him so much saying that bad bunny is going to be uniting and so again i don't have the clip sheet but there's a bad bunny clip i wasn't even aware of this until we were doing the show prep for thought crime tonight this is the this is the bad bunny andrew if you have the list um go for it because this is the Bad Bunny Statue of Liberty clip.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Did you guys even know about this from a couple of months ago? I made a mistake. I want to apologize to the immigrants in America. I'm in the United States. I know America is the whole continent. I want to say that this country is nothing without the immigrants. This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombia, it's Venezuela, it's Cubans, when it's underwreck. So that's a bad bunny video slash stunt that he put out just three months ago, where, and for those of you who are just listening, when that starts out, there's an image of the Statue of Liberty with, I guess it's Bad Bunny up there, like he's Ghostbusters, too.
Starting point is 00:30:39 and he's putting the Puerto Rican flag over the Statue of Liberty. And then it cuts, smash cuts to a bunch of guys sitting around a radio and listening as if it's like the 1980s again, Ghostbusters 2, in, you know, like in Brooklyn or something, or the Bronx. And it's like this AI Trump apologizing to Mexicans and his, this is just bizarre. This is so bizarre to me. That immigrants, this country would be nothing without Mexicans and Puerto Ricans and all this stuff. And by the way, Puerto Ricans are American. It should be said. I mean, they, we, it's a territory in the United States. They're American citizens. Yeah, they speak Spanish, but a lot, most of them do speak English. Let's have some real thought crimes, boys. But I mean, here, it is kind of annoying. The biggest thing I think, it's like when he says it's going to be unifying. Well, I mean, okay, but you probably should have talked to Bad Bunny about that. First, Roger, you buffoon, because.
Starting point is 00:31:38 you know, he came out and he instantly was like, I'm not going to speak English and you guys all have four months to learn Spanish. So, I mean, I think the message is pretty clear, you know? And this is the problem. I mean, Roger Goodell is trying to take both sides. It's either A, he's tone deaf or B, he's an idiot. It's 2025, right? We just had this major referendum in the country. You have to research these artists and understand that if they're going to take certain positions, you know, you're going to have to deal with that blowback.
Starting point is 00:32:05 So you can't act like this is not a political thing. When the guys put out videos like that, put out statements like that. But I mean, to me, they just always play to the mob of never wanting to offend anybody except the American right. I mean, why are we always the ones that have to kind of be offended? They have to push us. It doesn't make any sense to me. Well, the only thing unifying about Roger Goodell is that everybody hates Roger Goodell.
Starting point is 00:32:30 And that's the most unifying thing in America. And so Roger Goodell being a teammate with Bad Bunny, just like villainizes the halftime show even more. And so I'm like all about it. Like we need more Roger Goodell go out in public and saying how much he endorses bad money. The more you talk, Roger, the better it gets for the All-American halftime show. Many of us are hopeful about the direction the country is headed. But after years of abuse and mismanagement, things could fall apart at any moment.
Starting point is 00:33:01 That's why I and Americans from all walks of life have taken action to prepare for what's coming next. And that starts with having an emergency food supply. Storing food in your home is the right thing to do because we're living in crazy times. Which explains why so many people are preparing. Right now, you can get ready too with a three-month emergency food kit from My Patriot Supply. It comes with delicious foods like creamy stroganoff,
Starting point is 00:33:26 honey wheat bread, and mushroom rice peel off. The entire kit offers over 2,000 calories a day. This food kit lasts up to 25 years. Who knows what our country will look like then, but when that day comes, You'll be ready. Now, hear from Charlie in his own words. Just go to MyPatriotsupply.com slash KIRK
Starting point is 00:33:43 and join millions of Americans who are preparing today at mypatriotsupply.com slash kirk. That is my patriot supply.com slash Kirk. Think about this. Think about this. He had to come out and give a statement about bad bunny because of T.P. USA. And that just shows the power and the strength of TPSA and what Charlie and what, what,
Starting point is 00:34:07 Tyler and then, you know, Andrew tried to clean up some of the messes here and there. You know, obviously wasn't able to clean up much on his own part. But that's okay. No one's perfect. And, you know, it just shows the power of what Charlie built, right? It shows the power of this movement and shows the power of what TPSA is because you've got the, you've got the commissioner of the NFL has to come out and give a statement saying that we're going to stick with bad bunny. Because legitimately, people are just don't like this guy.
Starting point is 00:34:36 He's not a uniter. He's obviously there because they signed this George Floyd era contract with Jay-Z, who's Barack Obama's best friend. And that's why Bad Bunny gets put into, you know, these top Netflix movies like Happy Gilmore 2. All of a sudden, he's Happy Gilmore's caddy and not the guy who was in the original movie. And then suddenly he's also at the NFL's halftime show. It's like, this is just such an obvious corporate play and it looks really, really bad.
Starting point is 00:35:03 And no, people are going to be sick of it and they're going to tune out and they're going to tune in to TPUSA and you know what I say hey guys let's see let's see how it goes Jack that's not true because I'm on TikTok if you look at TikTok there's a bunch of people that say like I just can't even like with turning point okay I just can't even 346 wait you guys I just saw the alternative halftime show thing I'm not kidding I thought it was a joke because I kind of saw it on TikTok and was like oh they're trolling like whatever I didn't know they're actually having an alternative halftime show for people who are racist that is so can you imagine the people watching that not only racist and like hateful but
Starting point is 00:35:43 could not catch a vibe if their life dependent on it the most vanilla unseasoned losers on the planet what is going on and they're proud of it do we are there more of those there are like TikTok videos yeah absolutely you want to lib Karen can't function i never want to learn Spanish more. This is 344. Charlie Kirk's network just announced that they're going to have
Starting point is 00:36:14 a rival halftime show and all American rival halftime show. Puerto Rico Puerto Rico is
Starting point is 00:36:32 the United States territory. Puerto Ricans She rolled her heart Citizens I have never wanted to learn Spanish more Wait Cliff that's what you just said
Starting point is 00:36:48 That they don't actually Use articulation and logic They just have this like weird emotional theatrical performances Cliff Maloney just said it a minute ago She just did it Yeah and listen I mean she takes that video She loves it goes viral and then what does she do with it
Starting point is 00:37:04 You know, she goes to her other liberal women in the area. They sip on their wine and they talk about how they're, you know, they're the virtuous ones. I mean, that's what these folks actually believe. It is a sickness. I mean, it is a deep, deep mental problem that these folks have. And I don't know how you fix it. I mean, they believe what they're saying. There is conviction in what she's saying.
Starting point is 00:37:24 I think she's loony tunes. But that's, you know, this is a deeper problem than we want to give you credit for. And by the way, I'm going to have a little bit of a pickle here, guys. I made a promise. I'm in a pact that I would be at every Eagle Super Bowl. So if the Eagles get to the Super Bowl, we might have a problem where I've got to just decide where my allegiances are. So we'll say. Didn't they have to?
Starting point is 00:37:44 So it's like, by the way, so like, you know, I might be Polish, but I did play Bernardo in West Ride's story. So I think I know a little bit about Puerto Rico and Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rico. And the Puerto Rico. But the the there's a whole song in West Side Story about like Puerto Ricans coming to the whole musical is literally about Puerto Ricans coming to America and they're like dumping on Puerto Rico and I think for the movie they had to like sanitize the lyrics I think is that is that Ariana Grande she plays the I can't remember in in the movie they had to totally change it because they were like okay this goes a little I think it's Rogers and Hammerstein is the original and they're like this goes a little bit too hard on Puerto Rico like you. You lousy island and hurricanes and everything. Puerto Rico. I want to pull up the lyrics to that, actually. And then, like, dumping on it.
Starting point is 00:38:41 So it's like, like, the question of is Puerto Rico American is a legitimate question, right? Yes, we know that they are U.S. citizens. We get that. But I don't think it's illegitimate. And by the way, we are not saying that either. Like, that's when we say all American, we just mean all American. It's like USA, baby. But at the same deal with like, like, like, I served in Guam a couple of times.
Starting point is 00:39:01 in Guamese, U.S. territory, but it's got its own unique culture. And I'm just saying there's a difference when you're born in the, you know, an actual part of the United States that is connected to other parts of the United States when there's done. That speaks English. But hold on. I just have to do it. You speak the language.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Well, but yeah, but she's trying right here. Yeah, 360. Puerto Rico. Played that again. Puerto Rico. One more time. Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico.
Starting point is 00:39:33 I give her an A for effort and a C minus for delivery. I have a new. I have a new bet for you, Cliff. If the Eagles don't go to the Super Bowl, I think you should still have to go to the Super Bowl, but you have to wear a Puerto Rican jumpsuit. Puerto Rico. I've got the jumpsuit for you.
Starting point is 00:39:56 I might be there with you, man. I don't know. Oh, come on, Jack. This whole thing is yours. Your fault. This is all Jack's fault. He had to, he memed this thing into, into existence. Next thing I know I'm getting, I'm getting emails from legitimate press outlets going like,
Starting point is 00:40:12 is turning point USA really planning its own halftime show? And I was like, wow, shoot. And then our inbox flooded. No, if, if the Eagles don't go to the, to the Super Bowl, we're all going to enjoy the alternative halftime show together. And you guys have to go to the Super Bowl. you have to pay for the tickets and you have to celebrate bad bunny that's like that you have to dress up in drag you have to dress up in how about this puerto rican drag actually actually because your team
Starting point is 00:40:43 didn't go in the real even in the movie version the stevens uh even in the uh the speleberg film she does actually sing puerto rico my heart's devotion let it sink back in the ocean porto rico that's in the 2021 woke era version and that that's still pretty hard Because the whole point is like they don't like the island and they want to be in America. There's a whole song about this. Like, you're the Libs. This is your Broadway. This is your God.
Starting point is 00:41:13 This is your temple. I know your lyrics. I was the guy at Shakespeare in the park, okay? I know how this works. You have a whole musical about hating Puerto Rico. We have a Rumble rant. from Zuzu's Pettles, which again, we love Zuzes Pettles. I want Jelly Roll.
Starting point is 00:41:36 I want Jelly Roll and Brandon Lake singing Hard Fought Hallelujah at the All-American Half-Time Show request. Jelly Roll lost a ton of weight. Have you guys seen that? Yeah, I have. He's a good Christian guy, too. No. I saw Jelly Roll last year at SummerSlam because he performed at WWSlam, and I was there
Starting point is 00:41:58 in Cleveland. True story. All right. Well, say, I want to talk about this, Stephen A. Smith. I've been chomping at the bit to get to it. So can I, should I give the primer and then we dive into it a little bit? So explain, yeah, so explain this, because there was this, you know, I guess we're doing sports today. And this is like such a Charlie story.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Cash Patel pops up in New York City today. And he gives this. I love what you said about it, too, Andrew, earlier, where it's like, this is just like a story that you think would happen in, like, normal America, like, pre. pre-insanity America. Yep. It was exactly, that's exactly what it felt like. It was like, oh, we're, you know, there's mafia ties. There's, there's a legal throwing of games.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Like, so this one guy from the Miami Heat was in 2023 was basically, if you don't know, it's a prop bet that you can make on some of these platforms, whatever. A prop bet is an individual, you're betting on the individual's performance, right? How many points he's going to, going to score over under, how many assists, how many steals, whatever. and so basically he says that his ankle is hurt he goes out after the first 10 minutes so of course if you bet the under on his performance and he only played 10 minutes you're probably going to win that bet but then there was also like chauncey billups who's the head coach of the portland trailblazers he's apparently been implicated in an illegal poker scheme that's been coordinated with the mafia and they're using like x-ray and high-tech devices to cheat at poker game poker, these high stakes game, and they were using Chauncey Billups, Hall of Famer, now current coach, as the fishing expedition to bring in the big, the high net worth people. Because if you hear, oh, NBA Hall of Famers involved in this must be legit. It's going to be good, good games. And so, you know, all in, there's 34 people that have been implicated and arrested by the FBI. And this, and here's, here's the funny part. Jack, the investigation started in 2023. Who, who, was the president in 2023? Joe Biden. Well, the correct answer is
Starting point is 00:44:05 auto pen. Excuse me. Sorry, it was the auto pen. You missed that one. That's fine. I said you. I totally missed that one. So, but this fix it on the post. Fix it on the post. It was the auto pen. Andrew. Yeah, exactly. So like, listen, let's even take let's even take cash Patel out of it.
Starting point is 00:44:21 This is the New York FBI assistant director Christopher Raya talking about this. Three 11. Victims were attracted to play alongside well-known professional athletes and coaches, like Chauncey Billups, only to be unknowingly deceived through rigged shuffling machines, fixing the odds in their favor, as alleged and as you just heard from the U.S. Attorney's Office. This alleged scheme wreaked havoc across the nation, exploiting the notoriety of some and the wallets of many to fund the Italian crime families. Yeah. And so, so here's what's crazy. You got the Bonano crime family, the Gambino
Starting point is 00:45:04 crime family, the Genovese crime family, the Chesa crime family. So this is like a whole like mafia. They use like RICO statutes to do this. You know, we've talked a lot about how RICO statutes are out of date. If you're going to go after Antifa because they're decentralized, well, the mafia has a hierarchy. RICO statutes can apply. So then, oh, okay, go ahead. No, I was just going to throw in, we really got to talk about some of the ways that they were cheating, right? You know, especially some of the game cheating.
Starting point is 00:45:36 The, you know, the X-ray poker tables. I mean, we all know Cliff Maloney is a world poker champion. I don't know if he's ever used X-ray poker tables. Maybe he's got some kind of like X-ray reflector in his hat. That's why he always wears a hat.
Starting point is 00:45:51 So he's able to, oh, gosh, guys, why you got to do that to Cliff? Why do you got to do that to Cliff? Look at Cliff. Oh, come on. Come on. Come on. Look, you're letting all my vices show here. So look, here's my advice to any poker players out there. And there are a bunch on the right. It's kind of interesting community. But my advice is this, do not play any type of high-end home games. So you have tournaments that are, you know, overseen by casinos, professionals. They've obviously got regulations.
Starting point is 00:46:16 And then you've got these home games. I know a lot of really good players that find themselves in some of these home games. And of course, I mean, when you're talking tens of thousands of dollars, they're going to rig some of these games. I mean, they're so. profitable. But that photo there was a world poker tour event I won in 2022. I don't talk about it too often because I'm knocking too many doors, but that is my vice. I love the competition of poker, tournament poker specifically. It's an even game. Everybody starts, but it's do not play home games unless you know the folks running them. Yeah, because apparently you get x-ray tables that can see the cards that you're putting down. That's amazing. If you watch it, if you watch it, any of the
Starting point is 00:46:57 television tables now. So I've been at the TV table maybe two or three times. The way it works is literally, and that's the same stuff I guarantee you they were using, is when you put your cards face down, it's able to read them through the table. So like as you're on the TV table, you have to wear the microphone, but one of the rules is you have to place your cards on like this four inch by four inch area and it's reading your cards through x-rays or through some sort of sensors. So it's not like this is new technology. It's just that obviously that's very regulated, but that's what these folks are using to go out and swindle these people out of tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Smith felt just, I don't know, emboldened to bend the facts to fit an idea Jack, just to full circle it for you, and literally gave one of the dumbest takes I have ever
Starting point is 00:49:05 heard in the history, let's just say modern politics, because I'm sure, you know, I'm not going back to the Civil War. But in the modern politics, this is literally one of the dumbest things I've ever heard, 352. Don't be Trump is coming. He's coming. It's not hyperbolic. It's not hyperbole. I'm dead serious. He's coming. I'm just giving you the message. I'm telling you what I know, meaning what has been told to me, not by him because I don't talk to him. And I don't agree with him and I ain't vote for. But you must understand this is the climate. He ain't messing around.
Starting point is 00:49:45 So he goes on this diatribe basically saying. What does that even mean? No, he's saying that Trump is coming for the league. He's saying that because the NBA is filled with black men that typically, I guess, don't like him or that have been activists against him, that this is all a revenge tour. This is Trump coming for the
Starting point is 00:50:04 FBI, and the FBI, sicking his FBI on the NBA out of revenge. He's coming for sports. This was Trump revenge. Like, literally nothing to do with President Trump. The FBI started this investigation in 2003 when
Starting point is 00:50:20 this guy from the Miami Heat went down and there was tweets about it online that, hey, I heard he's going to go down with an ankle injury like take the take the under on the prop bet and so then that got out and so they start looking into it and they realize there's a lot going on in the NBA and there's all these people indicted and you know it's it's one of those things and angelo just pointed out there's a guy named damon jones an unofficial assistant coach of the lakers in 2022 the time of the incident he's since retired but probably committed the most egregious
Starting point is 00:50:56 of all these violations he allegedly sold at one of the games the information that lebron james wouldn't be playing the following day which then led to big bets and big wins for some of the players at the game so that was that was one so you could and you start wondering about this and cliff you probably know this as well and and actually you follow the NBA with your sons but there's a new concept in the NBA called uh like what is it load sharing or something like working you know you you reduce their load so you're constantly load management that's the expression load management so they're they've got this whole concept where well we got this load management because you know we want to save lebron's legs so he's fresh in the playoffs or whatever
Starting point is 00:51:38 how much load management is going on that's actually just illicit gambling over unders on prop bets yeah because you're going to sit your best players to keep them fresh for the you know for the playoffs or the tougher games or maybe you're actually just working a side angle and there's a side hustle and you know something other people don't know and you know you're only going to play lebron james about 15 minutes that night and you're going to take the under and a guy that usually is like a triple double well you could take the under on that pretty well yep so i mean i'm just saying the NBA is obviously the most shoddy and corrupt of all the sports leagues you could make an argument about any of them sure but this is like really damning to the NBA and here you got
Starting point is 00:52:23 Stephen A. Smith coming out and making a completely deranged argument. This is Trump's vengeance tour against the black man or something. I don't know where he's getting off on this. It's completely unhinged. Well, it's twofold. So one, I think there's the racist attack against Trump, which is the obvious one. The second, though, that's the least less obvious one is, if you remember back in the election,
Starting point is 00:52:47 the president had kind of some really fierce words for the owners, the NBA owners. Yeah. And for a lot of the big sports, it wasn't just NBA. It was all the major sports because there's a, I believe there's a belief that exists,
Starting point is 00:53:03 which is true, that the sports franchises, which a lot of them are conservatives that run them, a lot of them are alleged conservatives, are scared of their player base and some of their fan base. And they initiated all this really anti-vicious anti-Trump rhetoric
Starting point is 00:53:23 throughout the years that the president served in this first administration and in the years during the whole, you know, fake auto pen presidency, right? So you had coming into 2024, I think there were some statements off to pull them, but there were some statements that the president made. There was like, yeah, well, you know, basically the sports owners are going to have to pay their dues somewhere along the lines. So there's not a ton of love lost, I think, in the sports owner. So you're saying there is credence to what Stephen A. Smith
Starting point is 00:53:56 is saying. No, I'm not saying there's credence. I'm saying that the angle that I think he's speaking to is the one that you're mentioning, which is that Trump is racist. Well, I think he's speaking to what you're talking about. But there's some there's some like Trump vengeance to her and he's
Starting point is 00:54:12 like, I'm going to get these. No, here's but there is the best part. Yeah, the best part is that he's not really making any point. Right. He reminds me kind of of Mark Cuban when Mark Cuban would come out and like, you know, always feel like he had to have some hot take just to be edgy and to kind of always have this rumor of like a third party presidency or the celebrity running for president. Just you don't have to have a hot cake on every single issue, right?
Starting point is 00:54:36 Everything is not about racism. Everything is not about being the guy that has the cool takes so that you can get the clicks. And you listen to what he said. He's like saying six different things at once. But as long as he can take a stand against Trump, he's trying to tap into some weird base. So I just, I love when these people feel like they always have to talk. Sometimes what they have to say is not interesting. And this is one of those cases with Stephen A.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Well, so my take on it is that he, he has been floating a political run of some type, right? Like, is he going to go for president or something? And he got a little Trump friendly in the 2024 race. He got a little like, hey, Democrats, you're, you're being stupid, all this lawfare. It's going to come back to bite you. And then, you know, with the assassination, I think he saw the writing on the wall kind of kind of cozyed up to a centrist common sense position, took a bunch of flack. And now he's he's flexing his progressive bona fides by coming after Trump. I think you're totally right. So the, the, the, well, okay, so here's, here's my next point, though. I'm so excited to go after Stephen A. Smith. And I'll tell you why. And Jack, you know this clip. I was at this News Nation town hall event. Chris Cuomo invited me.
Starting point is 00:55:53 He was like, it's going to be this really peaceful thing. It's going to be conversation is the cure. We're going to just, it's just going to be a discussion. It's not going to be high intensity or whatever. Next thing I know I get there. And they're like, hey, we had to move some things around here with this Midas Touch Kid. I was like, what's his name? Never heard of him because his name's Adam.
Starting point is 00:56:11 So I have to go sit there. And next, within like a minute of being on stage, come back. commercial break a minute on stage they give me the first word i'm like hey progressives are prone to political violence all the polls show it boom he comes at me and goes he goes well do you disavow the young republican group chat and i was like whoa hold on mr energy you're like your energy's making my skin crawl like this like this is not constructive i'm not going to do your disavow olympics and then he looks over to the panel which was bill o'reilly chris quomo and like stephen a Smith. I think Joe Manchin was there. Maybe I can't remember. He looks over and Stephen A goes,
Starting point is 00:56:50 hell yes. And like, just totally throws me under the bus. So I'm very excited to show this clip now that Stephen A is proving to himself and his showing his true colors. Play cut 363. There has been a trend of I think, you know, let's just say, let's be gracious and say in the era of Trump. Maybe it's a reaction to Trump. I'm open to those discussions. But there is a justification for political violence. It shows up in every poll, and it's coming from progressive. And just think about this. We saw these Nazi group chats, what I'm sure you condemn, right? This Nazi group chat. Well, we can talk about it. Do you condemn it? I want to talk about it. Wait, so when they said gas chambers, you're not going to do this.
Starting point is 00:57:30 When they say gas chambers, you won't, so you're like J.D. Vance. You just won't condemn this? Well, I actually had JD on the show today. We had a whole conversation. You guys can all condemn this, right? Hell yes. Thank you. Oh, look at that. Stephen A. Smith. Hell yes. that was your finest moment Andrew that that was your finest moment could have been you know I would almost give you an A but it's got to be an A minus I have notes for myself
Starting point is 00:57:55 It's got to be a little bit more You could have been a little bit more Well listen shut him down a little more Because it's like I don't answer to you I'm not going to play your little struggle session game Well again it's it's really Off me off guard Chris Cuomo reeled me in It was going to be this peaceful sweet thing
Starting point is 00:58:10 And next thing I know this kid's coming at me what oh he totally did well and to be fair to chris chris ended up having him i think chris was offended for me he sent me a nice note afterwards and then he had the kid on his show the next night and he basically was like you know what you were doing you were trying to get that clip and you trying to call him a nazi and i don't think the mightest touch guys are very happy with chris oh yes yes exactly why is that like why is that like boom why is it like echoing boomer anyways so it was a funny like unspoken thing that happened in that moment and where I was like, freaking Stephen A. Smith just like chimes in out of nowhere.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Like he's got a role to play in this exchange. Hell yes. And I just remember going like, man, screw that guy. Like what? Come on. And I'm sure Stephen A. Smith has also condemned J. Jones, right? Oh, I'm sure. I'm sure. You probably called for him to not just rhetoric, but specific descriptions of violence to Republican children. Yeah, well, I'm sure he's called him, called him to drop out of the race.
Starting point is 00:59:11 I'm sure of it. I'm sure we can find that. Yeah, I'm sure of it. I mean, honestly, for all I know, he has. I mean, I just, like, but the point is, I had a bone to pick with Stephen A. Smith. So when he's coming in here with this vast conspiracy, 34 arrests, and they say it's just the tip of the iceberg. It's an ongoing investigation. We all can see the flops.
Starting point is 00:59:30 We can all see the, like, the calls, the five steps, no, no traveling calls. We can, I mean, excuse me, the NBA is a complete S show. I mean, the whole thing is just a total mess. And for him to come out and not say, you know what, I'm ashamed of this coach, I'm ashamed to these players for throwing games and faking injuries for bets that you have disgraced the league. You've tarnished the reputation. This is the league I love.
Starting point is 00:59:56 No, instead of that, instead of trying to hold them accountable, he takes it and turns it on Trump. All these people are doing all these illegal things, swindling millions and millions and millions of dollars out of people's pockets, innocent people. And that's his take. it's Trump's fault. Truly mind-blown. Hey, hey, hey, hey, it do be like that, Mr. Colvette. Now, yes. Why is it echoed? I don't go. Why is it like the, why is like the Steve and A. Smith voice of God? Voice of God. I don't know. Because it's probably more appropriate to his actual
