This entire hour, we're taking your questions, those of you that are members, members.charliekirk.com. That is members.charliekirk.com. If you want to come on the program, we always do this, members.charliekirk.com. Anthony, thank you for being a member. Great to hear from you, my friend. What is on your mind? Good morning, sir. I have a question regarding the Phyllis topic. How do we identify candidates that are true to their word?

You know, when they run for office, when they're in office, because they're starting to show themselves that they're not really who they are. Without a doubt. And so the Tom Tillis case is so frustrating because he uses our need to hold on to the North Carolina Senate seat against us. A valuable tell is it's good to have people with a real state level record.

And rarely do they have a good state-level record, and then they become a complete disaster in D.C. It does happen, but rarely. Let's take a senator that isn't talked about enough, and he comes on our program, Senator Eric Schmidt from Missouri. He was phenomenal. He was the former attorney general of Missouri. He had a great state-level record, and he's ended up to be a fabulous U.S. senator. Let's take Senator Rick Scott, who comes on this program quite a lot. He was a great governor of Florida. He ends up being a great United States senator.

It's when they kind of come from unknown places or their state level record is not as good. I would also say you could tell a lot based on the types of folks that are praising, raising and contributing. What do I mean by that? They're praising the person. So, for example, if it's the Karl Rove, Paul Ryan wing of the party that is praising the candidate. Yeah.

Also, who is raising money for the candidate? Who's hosting fundraisers? Who is trying to raise support? Tom Tillis is supported by all of the ruling class elite. Tom Tillis has always been supported by the neoconservatives, by the Romney wing of the Republican Party. And then finally, who is actually donating the money itself, not just raising it?

And again, Tom Tillis is not widely supported by the grassroots. I will say this, though. One of the structural problems, and we've talked about this repeatedly on this program, and I do not know a solution to this. Rarely do I present wide-ranging problems without a solution. I don't know...

How to get the conservative grassroots, such as all of you, more serious about giving small dollar donations to candidates. Now, we've covered this before, and I will reiterate this. And this drives me insane. Just literally in the last hour, this is, again, this is at freedom at charliekirk.com. I got this at-risk, your 5K doge check from some pack that I never gave money to.

Mike, I love Mike Lee. New update. Urgent save up act update. It's not dead. Click here for an urgent update or Donald J. Trump here. Charlie, is that you? I'm trying to get your attention. Tom Cotton. If I if Democrats flip my seat again, this is malpractice. Can I put this up on screen again? I'm not trying to pick on Tom Cotton too much. I think he's been totally wrong on so much stuff. I got to put this up on screen.

Tom Cotton is not going to lose his Arkansas Senate seat. It is not going to happen. OK, and so here he is raising money from me. If Democrats flip my Senate seat in Arkansas, we can say goodbye to Republican Senate majority. Listen, Tom, if you lose your Senate seat in Arkansas, we're losing like 20 Senate seats. OK, let's just be very clear. We will have lost.

The Senate majority in the most significant way since Franklin Delano Roosevelt. And here you are sending me unsolicited email. You know, I need money. I need money. I need money. We we abuse you in the grassroots. Those of you that are listening on the Salem Radio Network and watching on wonderful real America's voice. It loses impact when you get dozens of these a day.

So why does that matter, Anthony? Because you asked a very astute question. How do we get better candidates? You get better candidates when they are able to be funded and they are adherent to you, the grassroots, not to the major ruling donor class. And I say this as somebody who raises well over $100 million a year. There are some amazing donors out there. There are some amazing supporters. Guess what? They're not actually the ones that are always contributing to these U.S. senators.

There's two types of donors that typically give to people like Tom Tillis, the first of which are those that want to go to like a fun weekend at the Ritz-Carlton in Naples, get their picture made. They pay $25,000. Okay. The second type is much more insidious. They want something. They're a lobbyist from a tobacco company. They're a lobbyist from a pharmaceutical company.

So the people actually financing Tom Tillis are not the people of you guys in this audience. And they're actually not even the donors of Turning Point USA or Turning Point Action. Our donors are so over this whole thing.

that they're no longer giving to that. So, Anthony, it's a longer-term issue. I hope that helps solve it. And we need better screen candidates as well. Thank you, Anthony. Have a great weekend. Let's go to Bob. Bob, what is on your mind? Thank you for being a member. Charlie, could you and your legal team look into whether the naturalization of allegiance to the United States of America could be a way to start cutting back on the number of people coming into America who are hostile to this and its foundational values?

in regard to the specific clause in the oath that requires a person to renounce all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty

Charlie, I think that's an honest Muslim could not take this naturalization oath. It is required for any person to be a citizen. This is about becoming a citizen. Could it also be extended to other categories like guest workers, student visas and those types of things? That's a great point. I can tell you this. Ilhan Omar, when she took that oath, she was definitely lying. In fact, let's actually pull up that oath. I think that's really great. Let's pull it up for our audience.

Right here, so I can read it. And again, this goes back to a recurring theme that Islam is incompatible with Western values. Here is the oath. Let me read the entire thing. Thank you, Bob, for drawing my attention to it. I hereby declare an oath, and everyone in the audience, you be the judge. Email me freedom at charliekirk.com. And Bob, I'm going to read this on air. I hereby declare an oath that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, state, or sovereignty.

Of whom or which I hear heretofore been a subject or citizen, that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same, that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by law, that I'll perform noncombatant service in the armed force of the United States when required by law, that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by law,

and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, so help me God. Bob, that is a very beautiful statement. And it's like, that's tightly written. I got to be honest, a lot of these Mohammedans that are coming into America are in violation of that oath. I do not believe those that are adherent to Sharia law is that consistent with that statement. I'll just be very honest. That said, it's also fraudulent to obtain citizenship without

while having committed crimes, which we believe Ilhan Omar did. And the Trump Department of Justice should get to the bottom of whether or not Ilhan Omar committed citizenship fraud and marriage fraud with her brother. Great point, Bob. And again, we here on this program, despite all the hate mail we get and all the backlash, we're going to stay very morally clear about the rise of Muhammadism in the West.

In fact, I had this conversation with Frank Turek at dinner, and I'd love your guys' thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com. I'd also like Blake and Andrew's thoughts. What is a greater threat to the West, Mohammedism or Marxism? I don't know the answer. I'd love your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com. That is freedom at charliekirk.com. Mohammedism or Marxism? Freedom at charliekirk.com.

Making America great again starts with making America healthy again. Charlie Kirk here. I lost 40 pounds with the PhD weight loss and nutrition program. And two years later, I haven't gained a pound back. I started the PhD weight loss program because I need to be healthy to keep up with my crazy schedule. Most people start a weight loss program to get healthier. So why is big pharma spending millions to convince you to use their weight loss injections that do just the opposite?

Thank you.

you'll learn to quiet cravings and finally release the unhealthy belly fat. You won't be hungry and you'll never take medication. Call 864-644-1900 to schedule your one-on-one consultation or visit MyPhDWeightLoss.com. That is MyPhDWeightLoss.com, 864-644-1900.

I have to complete this. By the way, we're getting lots of emails, freedom at charliekurt.com. Craig, who's a member, says, Mohammedism would be my answer to the poll. Both are a serious threat, though. Andy says Marxism. Of course they're both serious. I'm not in any way discounting Marxism. I actually think Marxism is probably a greater immediate threat. But remember, it's the red-green axis. Can we get Zutty Jasser on the program next week? Zutty Jasser is great. He is my primary care doctor and a Muslim who agrees with what I am saying.

He is a Muslim who actually says, guys, you don't understand. They're taking over the West. And he's a faithful Muslim who says this. This is not about your Muslim neighbor who is a good person. I know those Muslims and I trust.

I think they're great. They can be good citizens. It is about Muhammadism as a whole, as an ideology. What does it look like in the macro and the aggregate? It is a fool's errand. It is a separate argument whether or not there are individually good Muslims. I know them. I trust them with my health. I get it. I know it. I see it. And they try to distract the conversation about

So let me just give you two examples here. This is one of them. This is a Muslim MP in the UK lecturing that free speech supporters think that they have the right to offend Muslims when he says they don't. When you have too much mass migration, Islam is incompatible with freedom of speech. It is. Islam does not have a robust marketplace of ideas. You can say whatever you want about me. You can call me whatever name you want.

You cannot have unlimited freedom of speech and Muhammadism. It does not exist, period. And finally, let me play this. This is 462. Remember, we did a whole program on this, and I got a lot of emails about it. But I will stay morally clear and consistent about how Muhammadism is trying to infect and go into the West. I feel as if we in the conservative movement are ignoring this.

We're acting as if like, oh, the Islamic countries are really based. Like, hold on. Come on. Stop it. This is the Islamic. If you did not know about this, these are the Islamic developers of the so-called epic city. Remember the East Plano Islamic Center? They snicker and brag to each other about how their planned village community will have streets named after Muslim conquerors and 75% of the HOA fees go to support the local mosque as a way to keep non-Muslims out.

This, of course, is the next step in the invasion. So I'm about to play 462. And before I do, though, I just have to repeat one more point here, which is I sat down with a couple from Dallas right near Plano. They live in North Dallas. So it's like 20 minutes from Plano. They had no idea this was happening. They had no idea. They said, what do you mean there's a Muslim city being planned? No clue. It was happening locally and they had no idea.

This is 462. This is how they take over the West. Islam is a conquering ideology. It is an enveloping strategy. Politics and Islam are one in the same. They are called to take over governments. They're called to enforce and implement. Play cut 462.

So we're still debating on the name, but it's going to be something Muslim name and a village attached to it, right? The names of the streets, Khalid ibn al-Walid, Tariq ibn Ziyad, like all the great conquerors. Like people need to Google those conquerors. And then we want to have different sections like Andalusia, this, that, like all our...

past glories and we want to bring it back the way what we're doing brother um like you cannot make it exclusive like non-muslims not allowed before not allowed what we're doing there's something called association fee i don't know what it's called in dubai like your maintenance fee that you pay your leave cutting the service fee to cut the grass to remove the snow and whatnot

So that service fee will put there 75% of the service fee you're paying goes to the masjid. Brother, we're putting an application now where we're selecting the names of the streets in the United States of America. They are laughing and bragging how they're using our own laws against it. That's in East Plano. That is not in Birmingham, UK. That is not in Munich. That is not in Dublin. That is in Plano. How they're bragging and laughing.

They mention an area of their town named Andalusia. That's a name from Spain when it was ruled by Muslims. It's a name aspiring to conquest. And notably in the West, we actually admit the most extreme Muslims in many cases. Pakistanis will tell you that Pakistanis who moved to the United Kingdom in America are the most backward, the most fundamentalist ones, the least reformed. And Epic City will give them a foothold.

And we're all just kind of looking at it saying, oh, you know, wow, that's really great. Religious freedom. I would make a provocative argument. When the founding fathers talked about religious liberty, I don't think that they wanted to see Muhammadism, Islamic Sharia law cities on the turf of America. It's coming to your neighborhood. Mass migration. You invade the world, invite the world. It is an assault on Western civilization. And they're bragging about it. They're snickering about it. It's coming.

The world is waking up to the power of gold. National banks are scrambling to secure it. According to the World Gold Council, central banks added 1,000 tons of gold in 2024, the third straight year of net gold buying. They understand what many investors don't. Gold is real money. Unlike paper currency, gold's value doesn't disappear with inflation, reckless government spending, or market crashes.

Now Noble Gold Investments makes it easy for you to claim your share. As our new administration works to reverse the economic chaos of the past, market swings are inevitable. When uncertainty rises, you need something solid, something to keep you on the path to

through financial freedom. Gold can be that foundation. And right now, when you make a qualified investment, Noble Gold will send you a free 10th ounce of a cold coin. Visit noblegoldinvestments.com. That's noblegoldinvestments.com. The world is turning to gold. Shouldn't you be looking into doing that too?

I have to clarify that clip we just played was actually about the Michigan similar, not the Plano one. Same idea, same concept, same worldview, same attitude, same smugness, same. The reason I had Blake checked, I said, wait a second, they're talking about removing snow and doesn't sound like Plano. Same template.

It all still applies in Warren, Michigan, in Warren, Michigan. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and subscribe to our podcast. Okay, we took a little detour there that was definitely warranted. Let's go to Dawn. Dawn, thank you for being a member. What's on your mind? Hey, Charlie. I have kids who are homeschooled. It is 11. And we're in D.C. in October. And it's the first time for my husband and me since eighth grade. So we're excited, but I think it's

What are some things you feel like are must do while we're there? We're going to be there. I'm trying to squeeze in. Okay.

Great. So you're cutting in and out a little bit, but I do have your question here. Let me repeat it for the audience. You're homeschooling family. You're taking your four kids to D.C. along with two other kids. They're in middle school and high school age. Be there for seven days. What do you recommend is must see while you are there? OK, so first of all, the Capitol Rotunda. It's amazingly the first time I ever was inside the Capitol Rotunda was for the inauguration of President Trump.

It's pretty amazing. I've been to D.C. so many times for a decade. It was the first time I actually got to see that. You're going at the right time of year. So the National Portrait Gallery is really great. It's a mixture of art and American history. All the Smithsonian's are amazing and free of entry.

So I would definitely do that. Apply for a White House tour. It's worth trying. You might not be approved, but it certainly is something that you should try. The American History, the Natural History, National Gallery of Art. And then also I would encourage you guys for one morning, say, hey, we're just going to walk. We're going to walk from the World War II Memorial to the Jefferson Memorial,

We're going to walk to the Lincoln Memorial and just spend a whole morning walking to the outdoor sites. It's totally worth it. The weather will be beautiful. I encourage you to actually go see the U.S. Constitution. And one that people might not have actually plugged for you, Dawn, which is the Museum of the Bible. The Museum of the Bible is right there. It is gorgeous. The Green family did a wonderful job with it. And I really encourage you guys to go check it out.

By the way, the Constitution is in the National Archives. So that's just some of the sites that I really encourage you guys to see. And by the way, I'm so glad you are homeschooling your children. I would also say something they'll never forget is going to the Arlington Cemetery in Northern Virginia for the Changing of the Guard. It is overwhelming to see all of the crosses at Arlington Cemetery.

of all the people who died for our country, for our liberty. It's very humbling. It's very sobering. So those would just be some of my immediate ones. Okay, Dawn, thank you for homeschooling your kids. Have a great time. Let us know how it goes. Okay. Thank you. All right. Great. Nicholas, thank you for being a member. Members.CharlieKirk.com. What's on your mind? Hey, so I was wondering, um,

About the India-Pakistan conflict, I was wondering if you had an opinion on what America should be doing, whether they should get into it at all or whether we should be taking in refugees or not. Just basically your whole opinion on the best course of action. We should stay out completely. We should stay completely and totally out. We should stay out of the conflict. Again, I always show this video here of the high-stepping.

Look, if it gets to the place of nuclear weapons, we should try to mediate. We should always be involved in brokering peace. But no weapons, none of that stuff. We should try to defuse the conflict. We're not going to send troops. We're not going to send armaments. This is an old, old, old conflict. And people are going to get mad if I say this. Pakistan is largely to be at fault here. I'm sorry. It's just the way it is. I don't mean to get into the details.

But let them fight it out if they want. I hate to see war. War is terrible. I actually don't think it will be nuclear weapons because I think nuclear weapons, both sides of nuclear weapons, both Pakistan and India. So I don't think we'll come to that. This could not be further from our responsibility. This is the opposite of our scope. Don't get involved. Don't said weapons resist any temptation to do so. One more thing. One more thing.

Do you think this could affect the trade deal in any way if it escalates or is it just completely not there? Potentially, yeah. I mean, look –

Again, I think that India is a much more important partner for us than Pakistan. Let's just be very honest. India might want to build up relations with a build up relationship with us, actually. So if anything would actually make us sweeten the trade deal, it might make it more urgent. Again, the solution to a lot of things. China is India. India is much more of a value system like ours. They actually have elections. There's a lot of problems in India. They have the caste system. They got very, very militant Hinduism. There's a lot of Muslims that also live in India as well.

But they have them somewhat quarantined. But it's not a Muslim majority country. But there are Muslims in India. But it is still a democracy. And they have a little bit more. They don't have total freedom of speech. There's pastors that get all in sorts of trouble if you go after Hinduism there. But it's a much freer society than China. And one where American and Westerners can get a lot. We can get along with India a lot better than China. And India is a very interesting test case about the power of fossil fuels.

India still has like 600 million people in their country that live in abject third world poverty, abject third world poverty. And India's number one priority is how do we get 600 million people to have toilets? I mean, that's like a real concern there. And they're doing a good job of it. And that's because of the liberalization of their economy. Look, neoliberalism is good to lift you out of poverty. Nobody, nobody denies that.

Free trade can absolutely get you out from the third world to the second world. Free markets work in that way.

And they should employ them and they should embrace them. Nobody ever debates that. The question that we're having here is whether or not once you're in the first world, should we continue with this unfettered free trade practices? Okay, thank you. Let's go to Olivia. Olivia, what's on your mind? Thanks for being a member. Hey, Charlie, I had a great time seeing you at the University of South Carolina.

My question is what daily habits or practices have helped you stay grounded in your conservative beliefs, especially when facing constant criticism or pressure to conform? Yeah, that's great. That is a phenomenal question. So it was great. I'm sorry. The University of South Carolina event couldn't have been longer. It was raining like crazy. And then we had lightning and we had to we had to leave for everyone's safety, which I was fine with. So what daily habits or

Honestly, the best way that I stay conservative is you stay Christian. If you put God first, your conservative views and your conservative perspective kind of just falls in line, to be perfectly honest with you. You have to work really hard. We as human beings are meant to struggle. We are meant to aspire towards something. We do not try to have a life of comfort. And so the...

Question I get all the time. From a daily habit standpoint, look, I think it's important not to drink and not to do drugs. Again, if you want to drink, it's fine. I don't need a moralist about it. But there is something to this idea that I'm going to make my life a little bit harder and I'm going to forsake ease and comfort. Build a family and a work routine that keeps you normal and helps you return to your family and to your faith.

is incredibly important. And you will remain more conservative if you have something you want to conserve. You remain more liberal if you think you need to be liberated, like women's liberation. So you think about it. If you have kids, you want to conserve them. You want to protect them. And so having kids makes you even more conservative. Having Turning Point USA and running Turning Point USA, I want to conserve it. We want to protect the best.

We want to protect the best of all things. And we as conservatives want you actually to embrace a harder, meaningful life, not one of just ease and comfort. There's a lot that divides the liberals and conservatives. Deep down, libs want an easy life and they want to be lazy. There's not every lib, but a lot of libs. Basically, they're always complaining that they have to work.

What an awful existence if you don't have to work. Now, work should not be everything. You should rest for an entire day of the week. But imagine a life without struggle. What is the purpose of all that? You want to try to leave the next generation off. You want to try to hand something better. It was in a certain circumstance, and we improved it. And then, yes, of course, faith. Make your relationship with God, with Jesus, your top priority.

So I hope that helps. Thank you. Really appreciate it. What does a mechanic and auto shop owner in Georgia, a taco restaurant operator in Arizona, and a life-saving medical innovator in Tennessee have in common? They're all small business owners, and they're all thriving on TikTok. Across the U.S., over 7.5 million businesses, from family-owned shops to entrepreneurs, are using TikTok to compete and grow. We use TikTok all the time on The Charlie Kirk Show.

In fact, 74% of businesses on TikTok say TikTok has allowed them to scale their operations, increasing sales and expanding to new locations. And that growth means jobs. Today, there's over 7.5 million U.S. businesses on TikTok employing more than 28 million people. And that number keeps growing. Small businesses thrive on TikTok. Learn more about TikTok's contribution to the U.S. economy at TikTokEconomicImpact.com.

Okay, we have two more questions remaining. Lester, what is on your mind? Thanks for being a member. Hey, so hold on, let me put this up really quick. So, hey, Charlie, I ran for student government president at UCF this past semester. I was very openly a MAGA conservative during this race. And so that was met with a lot of intense backlash. I faced over like 10 death threats, election interference hearings that got me disqualified.

And the Republican Party Club at the UCF University endorsed the liberal candidate who advocated for DEI policies. And that candidate ended up winning. They disqualified me while votes were still being counted. And I couldn't campaign for over half of the month that they campaigned. That was basically the time that was set to campaign. What can I do to get the story out there so this doesn't happen to anyone else?

Well, we would love to help get that story out there. And what you're illustrating is unfortunately very normal. Yeah, our students get death threats all the time. Our Turning Point USA students are under constant threat of retaliation and reprisal. So nothing new there.

But, yes, to your point, we'd be happy to work with you at Turning Point USA and help get that story out. And this is why I think the Trump administration needs to broaden its scope of its critique of these universities. It's not just anti-Semitism that's happening on these campuses. Again, this gets no coverage, but every day these kids are just getting assaulted just for being pro-Trump, for being pro-America. So let's get that –

Let's get that story out there. OK, Charlie, before last question, can I say one more thing? We've got to get to the last question running out of time. Gentry, Gentry, what's on your mind? Yes. Hey, Charlie. How can we create more unity in the body? In November, it seemed like we were very unified and now it seems like we're infighting more. I think it's maybe because we don't have an adversary yet because no one's running the Democratic Party.

What do you think about that? Very smart. Gentry, you're a very smart man. Yes. I mean, we've been talking about this. There is a I don't want to say a civil war, but there's all sorts of many little conflicts that will come to the surface. Part of it is very normal, though. We put together a unification governing coalition of Maha, of neocons, of isolationists, of libertarians, of crypto people, etc.

And so when you govern, all of a sudden people are going to say, but my topic is not being properly represented. To President Trump's credit, he's done a pretty good job of satisfying all those promises. Differences are papered over to win the big battle. Now we have competing interests and priorities, and that's totally understandable.

I want to try to calm it down. I'm intentionally not engaging in any of it. People are calling each other names. They're doing all this stuff. We've got to bring down the temperature because we need to form coalitions to win. But there are important moments where you're far out from an election. We've got to figure out what we actually believe as a movement. I've always taken the high road with this stuff. I don't engage. If you go on social media right now, it's one conservative influencer attacking another. It's just like, geez louise.

And you can't build anything that way. I find people that spend all of their time attacking other conservatives, they rarely have built anything of significance. It's really hard to build stuff when you're worried about what somebody just said in your Twitter comments. It's hard. And so I try to rise above it. I try to, okay, fine, I'm attacked. I'll text people privately. And we need builders. Builders are important to a country, a society, and a movement. And those that are always...

involved in he said, she said persnickety little infighting. I don't know if you could ever construct something at scale with that behavior or attitude. Thanks so much for listening, everyone.
