Charlie Kirk Today | Charlie Kirk: September 3, 2025 | Charlie Kirk Today | September 3, 2025
- Brought to you in part by the
- 00:00:01.782 --> 00:00:03.484
- International fellowship of christians and jews.
- 00:00:03.484 --> 00:00:16.063
- Chicago
- 00:00:16.297 --> 00:00:17.098
- They celebrate labor day differently.
- 00:00:17.098 --> 00:00:19.900
- I grew up in the suburbs of chicago,
- 00:00:19.900 --> 00:00:21.569
- And the way that the teenagers and the youths,
- 00:00:21.569 --> 00:00:25.773
- They celebrate labor day a little bit differently.
- 00:00:25.773 --> 00:00:27.875
- You see, in chicago,
- 00:00:27.875 --> 00:00:30.311
- Unlike in most pockets of america,
- 00:00:30.311 --> 00:00:32.213
- Where it's all just about family and tradition,
- 00:00:32.213 --> 00:00:34.181
- You see in downtown chicago, they want to break records now.
- 00:00:34.181 --> 00:00:37.918
- They didn't quite break a record, but they got close.
- 00:00:37.918 --> 00:00:42.389
- Prepare cut 288
- 00:00:42.756 --> 00:00:44.859
- This last weekend, 52 people were shot
- 00:00:44.859 --> 00:00:49.130
- In the city of chicago, seven of them killed.
- 00:00:49.130 --> 00:00:52.233
- Now, based on the shot to death ratio,
- 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:56.670
- I can tell you there's not a bunch
- 00:00:56.670 --> 00:00:57.738
- Of white supremacists doing this. play cut.
- 00:00:57.738 --> 00:00:59.573
- Two 8852 people i should say, were shot in chicago.
- 00:00:59.573 --> 00:01:03.777
- 30 different shootings over the holiday weekend,
- 00:01:03.777 --> 00:01:05.880
- Seven people killed.
- 00:01:05.880 --> 00:01:07.715
- Aren't numbers like that still a problem that
- 00:01:07.715 --> 00:01:10.818
- Your city needs to address?
- 00:01:10.818 --> 00:01:12.319
- What more can be done to address that?
- 00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:14.989
- Trump is a dictator.
- 00:01:14.989 --> 00:01:16.457
- I think we've got to be very clear.
- 00:01:16.457 --> 00:01:17.691
- He's trying to normalize violence.
- 00:01:17.691 --> 00:01:19.994
- He's trying to normalize
- 00:01:19.994 --> 00:01:21.195
- Military deployment in american cities.
- 00:01:21.195 --> 00:01:23.364
- What we have not seen is really a systemic investment
- 00:01:23.364 --> 00:01:27.368
- That will actually address the core issues.
- 00:01:27.368 --> 00:01:29.403
- I had shootings in my ward.
- 00:01:29.403 --> 00:01:30.804
- One of them was a tragic
- 00:01:30.804 --> 00:01:32.106
- Shooting of another house, neighbor.
- 00:01:32.106 --> 00:01:34.742
- So the trump administration was saying that they're going
- 00:01:34.742 --> 00:01:36.710
- To address the issue of unhoused residents
- 00:01:36.710 --> 00:01:39.680
- By putting in jails, in concentration camps.
- 00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:42.416
- Are they going to address the issue of violence
- 00:01:42.416 --> 00:01:44.418
- By withholding $800 million that, have gone to the cities
- 00:01:44.418 --> 00:01:48.656
- Like chicago for violence prevention programs?
- 00:01:48.656 --> 00:01:50.991
- You know what?
- 00:01:50.991 --> 00:01:52.159
- The democrats have normalized the idea that our cities
- 00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:54.295
- Are dangerous dumps and nothing can be done about it.
- 00:01:54.295 --> 00:01:58.999
- Democrats, they like criminals
- 00:01:59.600 --> 00:02:01.769
- Because they feel sorry for them.
- 00:02:01.769 --> 00:02:03.304
- You see their entire worldview,
- 00:02:03.304 --> 00:02:05.172
- Their entire philosophical view
- 00:02:05.172 --> 00:02:07.541
- Is one that you are nothing more
- 00:02:07.541 --> 00:02:09.443
- Than a product of your environment.
- 00:02:09.443 --> 00:02:10.878
- It's a very marxist, materialistic,
- 00:02:10.878 --> 00:02:13.914
- Secular, humanist way of thinking.
- 00:02:13.914 --> 00:02:15.950
- It's that you do not have
- 00:02:15.950 --> 00:02:16.850
- Agency, you don't have the ability
- 00:02:16.850 --> 00:02:18.552
- To rise above your circumstances,
- 00:02:18.552 --> 00:02:20.588
- But you see the guy that's shooting,
- 00:02:20.588 --> 00:02:22.223
- You know, he's putting his gun
- 00:02:22.223 --> 00:02:23.457
- Sideways and he's shooting up a bunch of youths at 2 a.m.
- 00:02:23.457 --> 00:02:26.460
- He's really a victim.
- 00:02:26.460 --> 00:02:28.062
- He's a victim of white supremacy, of capitalism.
- 00:02:28.062 --> 00:02:30.898
- He's a victim of the patriarchy.
- 00:02:30.898 --> 00:02:33.000
- He's a victim of all the different structures
- 00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.669
- Around him.
- 00:02:35.669 --> 00:02:36.637
- And we should feel sorry for the criminal.
- 00:02:36.637 --> 00:02:39.206
- Of course, the left has no such empathy for victims,
- 00:02:39.206 --> 00:02:42.409
- No such empathy for civilization,
- 00:02:42.409 --> 00:02:44.245
- Because at its core, the left is a civilizational movement.
- 00:02:44.245 --> 00:02:48.582
- And no better way to civilize
- 00:02:48.582 --> 00:02:51.151
- The united states of america, then, have widespread crime.
- 00:02:51.151 --> 00:02:54.388
- Widespread crime is the easiest way to turn
- 00:02:54.388 --> 00:02:56.890
- A first world nation into a third world nation.
- 00:02:56.890 --> 00:02:59.693
- The entire democrat party project is how quickly
- 00:02:59.693 --> 00:03:02.463
- Can we turn america into a third world hellhole.
- 00:03:02.463 --> 00:03:05.232
- They tried to do it by keeping our entire border
- 00:03:05.232 --> 00:03:07.034
- Open of 10,000 people a day, when joe biden was president.
- 00:03:07.034 --> 00:03:10.638
- They've tried to do it with the crime in our streets.
- 00:03:10.638 --> 00:03:12.439
- And you see this on full display.
- 00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:13.841
- And this is why my advice to the president,
- 00:03:13.841 --> 00:03:15.943
- Both privately and publicly, my advice to the white house,
- 00:03:15.943 --> 00:03:18.545
- Both privately and publicly,
- 00:03:18.545 --> 00:03:19.780
- As i'm talking them, go all in on chicago.
- 00:03:19.780 --> 00:03:22.516
- This is a perfect step to
- 00:03:22.516 --> 00:03:25.352
- And to their credit, they proved it in step one.
- 00:03:25.352 --> 00:03:28.522
- Here are the numbers.
- 00:03:29.023 --> 00:03:29.890
- This is cut 281
- 00:03:29.890 --> 00:03:31.692
- I can't wait till i get back on campus
- 00:03:31.692 --> 00:03:33.360
- Because they're going to be so mad about this.
- 00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:35.029
- Oh really?
- 00:03:35.029 --> 00:03:35.896
- In d.c., robberies are down 71%,
- 00:03:35.896 --> 00:03:40.868
- 71% play cut to 81.
- 00:03:41.335 --> 00:03:45.606
- Here's why democrat cities are plagued by violence.
- 00:03:45.606 --> 00:03:48.575
- Should consider getting on board.
- 00:03:48.575 --> 00:03:50.911
- If you look here at washington, d.c., at a two week
- 00:03:50.911 --> 00:03:53.380
- Period this year
- 00:03:53.380 --> 00:03:54.682
- Compared to last year, property crime is down 20%.
- 00:03:54.682 --> 00:03:58.352
- But the biggest thing are all of the violent crimes,
- 00:03:58.352 --> 00:04:01.455
- Often including robbery, which is down 60%.
- 00:04:01.455 --> 00:04:04.792
- Homicides are down 71%
- 00:04:04.792 --> 00:04:08.228
- From last year over this exact same period of time.
- 00:04:08.228 --> 00:04:11.665
- Assaults with the dangerous weapon down 10%.
- 00:04:11.665 --> 00:04:14.702
- Yet if you listen to democrats,
- 00:04:14.702 --> 00:04:16.704
- They don't care about those statistics.
- 00:04:16.704 --> 00:04:19.340
- The only thing i would add charlie hurt is now
- 00:04:19.340 --> 00:04:21.141
- They do care.
- 00:04:21.141 --> 00:04:22.009
- They're actually pro criminal.
- 00:04:22.009 --> 00:04:24.078
- It's a much different thing.
- 00:04:24.078 --> 00:04:25.546
- They, they they the idea of law
- 00:04:25.546 --> 00:04:27.981
- Abiding bothers them because the law itself bothers them.
- 00:04:27.981 --> 00:04:32.820
- The democrat
- 00:04:33.153 --> 00:04:33.954
- Party thinks the law are extensions
- 00:04:33.954 --> 00:04:35.889
- Of a white supremacist construct.
- 00:04:35.889 --> 00:04:37.391
- They think they're an extension of a failed
- 00:04:37.391 --> 00:04:40.327
- Western civilizational ambition.
- 00:04:40.327 --> 00:04:43.330
- They look at this through the lens of d civilization.
- 00:04:43.330 --> 00:04:47.634
- Law is a threat to their philosophical core.
- 00:04:47.634 --> 00:04:51.305
- That is why this is such a good topic,
- 00:04:51.305 --> 00:04:54.742
- This such a good fight for president trump.
- 00:04:54.742 --> 00:04:57.311
- You prove it in d.c.
- 00:04:57.311 --> 00:04:58.712
- And then you go
- 00:04:58.712 --> 00:04:59.947
- One city at a time and prove that urban crime is a choice.
- 00:04:59.947 --> 00:05:03.283
- If you live in a major city and you worry about crime, it's
- 00:05:03.283 --> 00:05:06.286
- Because your leaders want there to be crime.
- 00:05:06.286 --> 00:05:08.322
- Period. end of story. that's it.
- 00:05:08.322 --> 00:05:10.691
- Crime is not some sort of intractable problem.
- 00:05:10.691 --> 00:05:13.260
- Intractable problem.
- 00:05:13.260 --> 00:05:14.194
- Crime is not some sort of riddle.
- 00:05:14.194 --> 00:05:15.763
- Crime is not the human genome.
- 00:05:15.763 --> 00:05:17.865
- Crime is not us trying to figure out
- 00:05:17.865 --> 00:05:20.467
- To break through the
- 00:05:20.934 --> 00:05:22.102
- Fourth law of physics, or try to come up with something.
- 00:05:22.102 --> 00:05:25.239
- You know, crime is actually super simple.
- 00:05:25.239 --> 00:05:27.841
- Lock people up for a long period of time
- 00:05:27.841 --> 00:05:29.610
- And have a lot of police and don't tolerate it.
- 00:05:29.610 --> 00:05:31.745
- Lock people up for the small crimes
- 00:05:31.745 --> 00:05:33.580
- And they won't do the big crimes it is working
- 00:05:33.580 --> 00:05:37.117
- In. d.c. cut 286.
- 00:05:37.117 --> 00:05:40.187
- They say more than 1300 arrests made so far.
- 00:05:40.187 --> 00:05:43.857
- That includes a dozen known gang members.
- 00:05:43.857 --> 00:05:46.193
- One part of trend arugula.
- 00:05:46.193 --> 00:05:48.228
- Who's the subject of a murder for hire probe.
- 00:05:48.228 --> 00:05:51.698
- Another was a minor taken into custody for intent
- 00:05:51.698 --> 00:05:54.368
- To deal fentanyl, plus, five missing children rescued.
- 00:05:54.368 --> 00:05:58.972
- All that since august 7th murders are down significantly.
- 00:05:58.972 --> 00:06:03.577
- You see the democrat party.
- 00:06:03.577 --> 00:06:04.711
- This is why this issue
- 00:06:04.711 --> 00:06:05.913
- I my advice to president trump is go all in on this
- 00:06:05.913 --> 00:06:08.849
- For the rest of your presidency, because this issue
- 00:06:08.849 --> 00:06:11.819
- Exposes the unpatriotic, deep civilizational
- 00:06:11.819 --> 00:06:15.923
- Lord lawless core of what the democrat party is.
- 00:06:15.923 --> 00:06:19.827
- It exposes the democrat party being
- 00:06:19.827 --> 00:06:23.464
- A anti-western
- 00:06:23.797 --> 00:06:26.533
- American parasitic contagion.
- 00:06:26.533 --> 00:06:30.404
- Because the democrats have to oppose everything
- 00:06:31.405 --> 00:06:33.607
- Donald trump does.
- 00:06:33.607 --> 00:06:34.808
- We've we've we've made fun of that.
- 00:06:34.808 --> 00:06:37.044
- We've done plenty of humor.
- 00:06:37.044 --> 00:06:38.178
- You know, donald trump says, i cure cancer.
- 00:06:38.178 --> 00:06:40.347
- They'll be pro cancer. we talked about that.
- 00:06:40.347 --> 00:06:42.916
- So donald trump
- 00:06:42.916 --> 00:06:44.918
- Says i'm now bringing down crime,
- 00:06:44.918 --> 00:06:47.588
- And they have to find some sort of way to verbally contort,
- 00:06:47.588 --> 00:06:52.726
- To do some sort of strange rhetorical calisthenics,
- 00:06:52.726 --> 00:06:56.997
- To try to convince you that this is bad,
- 00:06:57.831 --> 00:07:01.635
- That no, actually crime going down is white supremacy,
- 00:07:01.635 --> 00:07:05.138
- Or it's the nationalization of our cities.
- 00:07:05.138 --> 00:07:08.275
- Well, the nationalization of our cities is better
- 00:07:09.276 --> 00:07:11.211
- Than what we've been living through.
- 00:07:11.211 --> 00:07:12.212
- What we've been living through is a third world
- 00:07:12.212 --> 00:07:14.815
- Racial jungle,
- 00:07:14.815 --> 00:07:15.949
- And we don't want to live through that
- 00:07:15.949 --> 00:07:17.985
- Where it's unrecognizable.
- 00:07:17.985 --> 00:07:19.987
- And it is,
- 00:07:19.987 --> 00:07:21.855
- Quite honestly, lawless.
- 00:07:22.389 --> 00:07:26.026
- And rudy giuliani proved this in new york city.
- 00:07:27.027 --> 00:07:29.796
- But how easily we forget rudy was injured
- 00:07:29.796 --> 00:07:32.633
- In a car accident this last weekend.
- 00:07:32.633 --> 00:07:34.835
- He stopped to help a woman
- 00:07:34.835 --> 00:07:36.036
- Who was apparently a victim of domestic violence.
- 00:07:36.036 --> 00:07:39.106
- As he was pulling his.
- 00:07:39.106 --> 00:07:40.741
- As he was pulling back out,
- 00:07:40.741 --> 00:07:42.042
- He got hit at high speed from behind,
- 00:07:42.042 --> 00:07:44.077
- Broken a broken vertebrae and everything.
- 00:07:44.077 --> 00:07:46.713
- Now, trump says he's receiving the presidential
- 00:07:46.713 --> 00:07:49.216
- Medal of freedom.
- 00:07:49.216 --> 00:07:52.185
- These cities have become unlivable.
- 00:07:52.185 --> 00:07:55.222
- Everybody knows it.
- 00:07:55.222 --> 00:07:56.323
- You're afraid to say it.
- 00:07:56.323 --> 00:07:58.058
- And the response by the democrat
- 00:07:58.058 --> 00:08:00.360
- Elite is so telling
- 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:03.597
- Because they don't actually care about their constituents.
- 00:08:03.597 --> 00:08:06.567
- They pander to a small subset of gang bangers
- 00:08:06.567 --> 00:08:10.904
- Teenagers, youths.
- 00:08:11.338 --> 00:08:14.942
- And for them, they would much
- 00:08:15.576 --> 00:08:18.278
- Rather have a dangerous, crime infested city
- 00:08:18.278 --> 00:08:20.781
- Where they are, quote unquote, elected and in charge.
- 00:08:20.781 --> 00:08:23.350
- Then president trump being able
- 00:08:23.350 --> 00:08:25.385
- To bring in additional resources
- 00:08:25.385 --> 00:08:28.288
- And bring down crime.
- 00:08:28.789 --> 00:08:35.262
- In genesis
- 00:08:35.562 --> 00:08:36.463
- 12 three, god made a powerful promise
- 00:08:36.463 --> 00:08:39.099
- To abraham, the father of the jewish people.
- 00:08:39.099 --> 00:08:42.302
- I will bless those who bless you.
- 00:08:42.302 --> 00:08:45.505
- The christian bible tells us
- 00:08:45.505 --> 00:08:47.040
- That we have been grafted into god's family tree.
- 00:08:47.040 --> 00:08:50.010
- The rich olive tree of israel,
- 00:08:50.010 --> 00:08:52.412
- The very foundations of the christian faith,
- 00:08:52.412 --> 00:08:54.815
- The bible and jesus, whom christians call
- 00:08:54.815 --> 00:08:57.417
- The messiah, are deeply rooted in israel.
- 00:08:57.417 --> 00:09:00.887
- Supporting israel aligns christians with god's
- 00:09:00.887 --> 00:09:03.523
- Prophetic timeline.
- 00:09:03.523 --> 00:09:04.891
- It demonstrates our willingness to be instruments of
- 00:09:04.891 --> 00:09:08.128
- God's blessing, uplifting his chosen people,
- 00:09:08.128 --> 00:09:11.698
- And it calls us to confront and heal
- 00:09:11.698 --> 00:09:14.001
- The centuries old wounds of anti-semitism.
- 00:09:14.001 --> 00:09:17.037
- The scripture says how good and how
- 00:09:17.037 --> 00:09:19.473
- Pleasant it is when brethren dwell together.
- 00:09:19.473 --> 00:09:22.776
- You can be part of this historic movement
- 00:09:22.776 --> 00:09:26.313
- Of bringing light to our world.
- 00:09:26.313 --> 00:09:29.082
- Learn more by going to ifc.

- J.org today.
- 00:09:31.218 --> 00:09:33.994
- J.org today.
- 00:09:33.994 --> 00:09:42.999
- Brandon johnson
- 00:09:43.366 --> 00:09:44.401
- Might be the most unimpressive mayor in america.
- 00:09:44.401 --> 00:09:47.404
- He's doing a terrible job.
- 00:09:47.971 --> 00:09:50.140
- He is not well liked by the people of chicago.
- 00:09:50.140 --> 00:09:53.743
- He's not smart. he's not bright.
- 00:09:53.743 --> 00:09:55.845
- He shouldn't be the mayor of chicago.
- 00:09:55.845 --> 00:09:57.781
- Chicago deserves so much better than brandon johnson.
- 00:09:57.781 --> 00:10:01.718
- His approval rating is below 20%.
- 00:10:01.718 --> 00:10:04.154
- He's a marxist.
- 00:10:04.154 --> 00:10:05.722
- President trump got like 30% of the vote in chicago.
- 00:10:05.722 --> 00:10:09.059
- So just so we are clear, president donald trump
- 00:10:09.059 --> 00:10:11.661
- Has more approval in chicago than brandon johnson.
- 00:10:11.661 --> 00:10:15.031
- And in order to be mayor of chicago, you run in
- 00:10:15.999 --> 00:10:18.334
- Kind of a a jungle primary or what it's called.
- 00:10:18.334 --> 00:10:22.105
- And so you have like 8 or 9 different people that run.
- 00:10:22.105 --> 00:10:24.307
- So if you get like 28, 29% of the vote, you become mayor.
- 00:10:24.307 --> 00:10:26.876
- Now there is a runoff system, i think.
- 00:10:26.876 --> 00:10:28.745
- And he ended up winning the runoff
- 00:10:28.745 --> 00:10:29.946
- Thanks to the teachers unions,
- 00:10:29.946 --> 00:10:31.047
- Which run the entire state of illinois.
- 00:10:31.047 --> 00:10:33.650
- This is brandon johnson, who
- 00:10:34.250 --> 00:10:35.952
- Is overseeing 52 people shot and seven people killed.
- 00:10:35.952 --> 00:10:39.522
- Let's just kind of
- 00:10:39.522 --> 00:10:40.490
- Look at the totals here, which, by the way,
- 00:10:40.490 --> 00:10:41.825
- They are down this year, remarkably,
- 00:10:41.825 --> 00:10:44.294
- But still, 245 people shot and killed, 1121
- 00:10:44.294 --> 00:10:48.798
- People shot and wounded, 1366 people shot mr.
- 00:10:48.798 --> 00:10:54.070
- Johnson with 293 homicides in just the month of august.
- 00:10:54.070 --> 00:10:58.608
- 39 people were shot and killed,
- 00:10:58.608 --> 00:11:00.110
- 208 people were shot and wounded, 247
- 00:11:00.110 --> 00:11:02.912
- People were total shot, with 43 homicides.
- 00:11:02.912 --> 00:11:05.081
- The vast majority of this were black
- 00:11:05.081 --> 00:11:06.683
- People shooting black people.
- 00:11:06.683 --> 00:11:07.917
- Just we are clear
- 00:11:07.917 --> 00:11:09.052
- It's not white people that are shooting black people.
- 00:11:09.052 --> 00:11:11.221
- The predominant drive of urban crime is black on black crime
- 00:11:11.221 --> 00:11:16.593
- Or just black crime in general, especially in the city
- 00:11:16.593 --> 00:11:19.529
- Of chicago.
- 00:11:19.529 --> 00:11:20.497
- But no one is able to say that was brandon
- 00:11:20.497 --> 00:11:22.031
- Johnson wants to try to make it that, you know, i'm
- 00:11:22.031 --> 00:11:23.900
- Fighting white supremacy,
- 00:11:23.900 --> 00:11:25.135
- Even though he will not address black crime in his own city.
- 00:11:25.135 --> 00:11:28.104
- And just because we've been desensitized
- 00:11:28.104 --> 00:11:30.440
- And used to this doesn't make mean it's okay.
- 00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:32.542
- Just because i grew up my entire life getting used to,
- 00:11:32.542 --> 00:11:35.545
- You know, 3 to 500 people getting shot
- 00:11:35.545 --> 00:11:38.181
- A summer in chicago does not make it okay.
- 00:11:38.181 --> 00:11:42.118
- Are you
- 00:11:42.352 --> 00:11:43.052
- Prepared to defend this land?
- 00:11:43.052 --> 00:11:45.989
- This land that was built by slaves?
- 00:11:45.989 --> 00:11:48.925
- A land that was built by indigenous people.
- 00:11:48.925 --> 00:11:52.262
- A land that was built by workers.
- 00:11:52.262 --> 00:11:54.764
- Are you prepared to defend this land?
- 00:11:54.764 --> 00:11:59.402
- The people united will always prevail.
- 00:12:00.236 --> 00:12:04.240
- I need you all to stand firm, to stand strong.
- 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:08.178
- If this president decides to continue
- 00:12:08.178 --> 00:12:11.347
- To break this constitution.
- 00:12:11.347 --> 00:12:12.715
- Okay, let's go through a couple things.
- 00:12:12.715 --> 00:12:14.484
- First of all, are you encouraging people
- 00:12:14.484 --> 00:12:16.119
- To fight federal troops?
- 00:12:16.119 --> 00:12:17.253
- Mr. mayor?
- 00:12:17.253 --> 00:12:17.921
- Is that what you're saying?
- 00:12:17.921 --> 00:12:20.223
- Sounds like an insurrection.
- 00:12:20.223 --> 00:12:21.424
- Language.
- 00:12:21.424 --> 00:12:22.859
- If and if a republican governor were to say something
- 00:12:22.859 --> 00:12:26.462
- Like that, wolf, under joe biden.
- 00:12:26.462 --> 00:12:29.532
- Also, how is that any different
- 00:12:30.166 --> 00:12:33.102
- Than how the left got really
- 00:12:33.102 --> 00:12:35.505
- Mad and angry
- 00:12:35.505 --> 00:12:38.308
- At mr. wallace?
- 00:12:38.675 --> 00:12:40.410
- George wallace, remember, i'm
- 00:12:40.410 --> 00:12:41.811
- Going to fight federal troops against segregation.
- 00:12:41.811 --> 00:12:44.547
- Well, you're going to fight federal.
- 00:12:44.547 --> 00:12:46.049
- The democrats, they have
- 00:12:46.049 --> 00:12:48.284
- Some parallels throughout their history.
- 00:12:49.118 --> 00:12:50.720
- In fact, i think wallace was a democrat for that mistaken.
- 00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:55.758
- If we go a level deeper here, though,
- 00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:59.495
- Which i think is just a side note,
- 00:12:59.495 --> 00:13:01.097
- Before i go a level deeper,
- 00:13:01.097 --> 00:13:03.233
- Native americans do not build chicago.
- 00:13:03.233 --> 00:13:04.934
- Okay?
- 00:13:04.934 --> 00:13:05.869
- The potawatomi indians did not build chicago.
- 00:13:05.869 --> 00:13:07.871
- The illinois tribes, the not build chicago.
- 00:13:07.871 --> 00:13:10.540
- They occupied chicago.
- 00:13:10.540 --> 00:13:13.376
- They didn't build anything. okay.
- 00:13:13.376 --> 00:13:15.311
- Very sweet, nice people.
- 00:13:15.311 --> 00:13:16.346
- They don't build anything.
- 00:13:16.346 --> 00:13:18.781
- Chicago really started as a military base in 1803,
- 00:13:18.781 --> 00:13:21.251
- Fort dearborn.
- 00:13:21.251 --> 00:13:22.518
- It was built largely, by the way, by the irish
- 00:13:22.518 --> 00:13:24.687
- And the poles and the czechs and the bohemians
- 00:13:24.687 --> 00:13:27.156
- And the italians.
- 00:13:27.156 --> 00:13:29.492
- And it was not built by slaves.
- 00:13:29.492 --> 00:13:31.361
- I mean, there was a big influx
- 00:13:31.361 --> 00:13:32.795
- Of black migration that came to chicago.
- 00:13:32.795 --> 00:13:35.265
- And actually, before we decided to addict
- 00:13:35.265 --> 00:13:38.534
- A bunch of our populations on government benefits,
- 00:13:38.534 --> 00:13:40.937
- Those parts of chicago were flourishing, were safer.
- 00:13:40.937 --> 00:13:43.940
- Chicago was largely built up after the civil war, mr.
- 00:13:45.041 --> 00:13:47.744
- Mayor, but he just has to say it,
- 00:13:47.744 --> 00:13:49.012
- Because that's kind of part of the modern incantation
- 00:13:49.012 --> 00:13:52.548
- Of the democrat party.
- 00:13:52.548 --> 00:13:54.083
- I think president trump should call his bluff.
- 00:13:54.083 --> 00:13:56.119
- I think we should flood the zone.
- 00:13:56.119 --> 00:13:57.520
- It's already working in washington, d.c.
- 00:13:57.520 --> 00:13:59.789
- Chicago is a next perfect test case.
- 00:13:59.789 --> 00:14:03.293
- As i said in d.c., and people laughed at me.
- 00:14:03.293 --> 00:14:05.595
- You bring in the tanks,
- 00:14:05.595 --> 00:14:07.030
- You fly the drones, you send in the marines.
- 00:14:07.030 --> 00:14:09.565
- It worked in dc.
- 00:14:09.565 --> 00:14:10.767
- It will work in chicago.
- 00:14:10.767 --> 00:14:12.402
- People were laughing.
- 00:14:12.402 --> 00:14:13.336
- Oh my goodness, why are there tanks in dc?
- 00:14:13.336 --> 00:14:16.172
- Well, it worked because the show of force is all that.
- 00:14:16.172 --> 00:14:18.608
- These good for nothing lowlifes, these lowlifes
- 00:14:18.608 --> 00:14:21.778
- That are shooting people at 1 or 2 a.m.,
- 00:14:21.778 --> 00:14:23.613
- That's all they understand.
- 00:14:23.613 --> 00:14:25.014
- These good
- 00:14:25.014 --> 00:14:26.082
- For nothing lowlifes that are spraying and praying.
- 00:14:26.082 --> 00:14:29.118
- And sometimes a six year old girl gets
- 00:14:29.118 --> 00:14:31.387
- Struck on her way to school.
- 00:14:31.387 --> 00:14:33.189
- That right there is completely unacceptable.
- 00:14:34.123 --> 00:14:36.359
- We're not going to put up with that
- 00:14:36.359 --> 00:14:37.994
- In the united states of america.
- 00:14:37.994 --> 00:14:39.195
- We're not going to put up with urban crime anymore.
- 00:14:39.195 --> 00:14:40.964
- We're going to go city by city, block by block.
- 00:14:40.964 --> 00:14:44.567
- And the democrats really don't like it.
- 00:14:44.567 --> 00:14:46.069
- The left,
- 00:14:46.069 --> 00:14:47.136
- They don't know how to answer it because like, oh,
- 00:14:47.136 --> 00:14:48.137
- Our cities are so safe,
- 00:14:48.137 --> 00:14:49.605
- So stay away so we can keep them unsafe.
- 00:14:49.605 --> 00:14:52.508
- Really?
- 00:14:52.508 --> 00:14:54.043
- You guys have been complaining
- 00:14:54.043 --> 00:14:55.645
- About how dangerous these cities are for a while.
- 00:14:55.645 --> 00:14:57.447
- Give us more money because our cities are so unsafe.
- 00:14:57.447 --> 00:15:00.483
- It's time for a federal takeover of chicago.
- 00:15:01.384 --> 00:15:04.187
- We've been calling for this for quite some time.
- 00:15:04.187 --> 00:15:05.621
- I think we're getting closer.
- 00:15:05.621 --> 00:15:06.923
- I think you're going to see the president
- 00:15:06.923 --> 00:15:08.124
- Pull the trigger sometime soon.
- 00:15:08.124 --> 00:15:09.525
- What is mayor johnson going to do? resist?
- 00:15:09.525 --> 00:15:11.794
- We'll talk more after the break.
- 00:15:11.794 --> 00:15:15.498
- I'm proud to partner with amac,
- 00:15:16.132 --> 00:15:17.667

- 00:16:29.064 --> 00:16:31.466
- No federal troops in the city of chicago.
- 00:16:31.466 --> 00:16:36.171
- No militarized force
- 00:16:36.638 --> 00:16:38.106
- In the city of chicago.
- 00:16:38.106 --> 00:16:41.276
- We're going to defend our democracy
- 00:16:41.276 --> 00:16:43.044
- In the city of chicago.
- 00:16:43.044 --> 00:16:45.513
- We're going to protect the humanity of every single person
- 00:16:45.513 --> 00:16:48.283
- In the city of chicago.
- 00:16:48.283 --> 00:16:49.684
- This is a part of his plan to do something really nefarious,
- 00:16:49.684 --> 00:16:53.588
- Which is to interfere with elections in 2026.
- 00:16:53.588 --> 00:16:56.691
- He wants to have troops on the ground
- 00:16:56.691 --> 00:16:58.660
- To stop people from voting,
- 00:16:58.660 --> 00:17:00.028
- To intimidate people from going to the voting booth.
- 00:17:00.028 --> 00:17:02.864
- So take note.
- 00:17:02.864 --> 00:17:04.365
- That is what this is all about.
- 00:17:04.365 --> 00:17:06.000
- I challenge j.b.
- 00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:07.068
- Pritzker just to walk the west side of chicago.
- 00:17:07.068 --> 00:17:09.104
- I could pick the neighborhood without your security.
- 00:17:09.104 --> 00:17:11.106
- Why don't you wear a gopro camera
- 00:17:11.106 --> 00:17:13.775
- And let's see what happens.
- 00:17:14.375 --> 00:17:17.512
- This is a very important thing.
- 00:17:17.512 --> 00:17:20.715
- The teaching from the scriptures
- 00:17:20.715 --> 00:17:23.184
- That man is originally flawed
- 00:17:23.184 --> 00:17:26.321
- And that we have original sin,
- 00:17:26.921 --> 00:17:29.724
- Is one of the reasons why
- 00:17:29.724 --> 00:17:32.060
- We believe
- 00:17:32.060 --> 00:17:34.329
- That you need laws and you need restraints.
- 00:17:34.329 --> 00:17:38.032
- But democrats, liberals, they have a soul in view.
- 00:17:38.032 --> 00:17:41.202
- That's jean-jacques rousseau, a rousseau
- 00:17:41.202 --> 00:17:44.139
- In view of human nature, they think
- 00:17:44.139 --> 00:17:47.208
- Human beings are naturally good, and that it's
- 00:17:48.176 --> 00:17:51.079
- All of the environment that contaminates us.
- 00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:55.083
- I encourage you to apply this methodology
- 00:17:55.083 --> 00:17:58.286
- To any liberal that you talk to in your life.
- 00:17:58.286 --> 00:18:01.156
- They generally think that human beings are born
- 00:18:01.156 --> 00:18:03.525
- Naturally good.
- 00:18:03.525 --> 00:18:04.626
- They'll rousseau in view.
- 00:18:04.626 --> 00:18:07.295
- They will privilege the infant over the adult.
- 00:18:07.295 --> 00:18:11.299
- They think the infant is actually a better person
- 00:18:11.299 --> 00:18:14.169
- Because you were born good
- 00:18:14.169 --> 00:18:15.537
- And you grow to be bad because of what is around you.
- 00:18:15.537 --> 00:18:18.640
- The reason we'll value this is important.
- 00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:22.443
- The primitive over the civilized.
- 00:18:22.443 --> 00:18:26.147
- Why do you think that brandon johnson needs to mention
- 00:18:26.147 --> 00:18:28.616
- The indigenous people?
- 00:18:28.616 --> 00:18:31.286
- Because they value the primitive over the civilized.
- 00:18:32.320 --> 00:18:35.390
- To them, civilization is a toxin.
- 00:18:35.390 --> 00:18:38.293
- We look at civilization as a blessing.
- 00:18:38.293 --> 00:18:42.430
- The rousseau, in view of human nature,
- 00:18:43.264 --> 00:18:46.301
- Is that a human being,
- 00:18:46.301 --> 00:18:49.237
- As they grow, will be influenced
- 00:18:49.237 --> 00:18:51.639
- By the structures around them to such a great degree
- 00:18:51.639 --> 00:18:54.742
- That there's no such hard wiping of hard
- 00:18:54.742 --> 00:18:57.612
- Wiring of nature.
- 00:18:57.612 --> 00:18:58.780
- Now, we as natural law believers,
- 00:18:58.780 --> 00:19:01.716
- And of course as christians,
- 00:19:01.716 --> 00:19:02.850
- We don't even have to be a christian to believe this.
- 00:19:02.850 --> 00:19:04.052
- You just have to believe in the natural law.
- 00:19:04.052 --> 00:19:05.320
- The natural law explains all of this.
- 00:19:05.320 --> 00:19:08.156
- We, as those who understand that normativity
- 00:19:08.156 --> 00:19:11.593
- Is woven into nature, we say, wait a second.
- 00:19:11.593 --> 00:19:14.262
- At the very least, you might have a lockean
- 00:19:14.262 --> 00:19:16.497
- View of human nature that there's a blank slate,
- 00:19:16.497 --> 00:19:18.533
- But i have a much more of a biblical,
- 00:19:18.533 --> 00:19:20.235
- Hobbesian view of nature that god created us good.
- 00:19:20.235 --> 00:19:23.204
- But there is a fall, and that sin is inherent
- 00:19:23.204 --> 00:19:26.274
- In our nature, and that we need redemption.
- 00:19:26.274 --> 00:19:30.778
- If human beings are naturally good,
- 00:19:31.546 --> 00:19:33.982
- Why do you have to teach kids manners?
- 00:19:33.982 --> 00:19:37.452
- Civilization is order,
- 00:19:37.919 --> 00:19:39.721
- But the left looks at civilization
- 00:19:39.721 --> 00:19:41.789
- As an authoritarian takeover project.
- 00:19:41.789 --> 00:19:44.392
- They complain that america itself is authoritarian,
- 00:19:44.392 --> 00:19:47.862
- So why wouldn't they also think that president trump's
- 00:19:47.862 --> 00:19:50.798
- Takeover of chicago is authoritarian?
- 00:19:50.798 --> 00:19:53.234
- But you have to know what you are aiming at.
- 00:19:53.234 --> 00:19:55.203
- This is why
- 00:19:55.203 --> 00:19:56.304
- Classical philosophy is so important in all of this.
- 00:19:56.304 --> 00:19:58.339
- What are we aiming towards?
- 00:19:58.339 --> 00:20:00.675
- The left? what is their end?
- 00:20:00.675 --> 00:20:02.810
- You see, you can find the essence of a thing.
- 00:20:02.810 --> 00:20:04.879
- If you know the end of the thing.
- 00:20:04.879 --> 00:20:06.814
- What is their goal?
- 00:20:06.814 --> 00:20:08.316
- What is their accomplishment?
- 00:20:08.316 --> 00:20:10.051
- For the left part of it is progressive idealism.
- 00:20:10.051 --> 00:20:12.320
- But honestly,
- 00:20:12.320 --> 00:20:13.788
- And this is where you guys
- 00:20:13.788 --> 00:20:14.756
- Should get the quote from the dark knight.
- 00:20:14.756 --> 00:20:16.557
- They just want to rule over the ashes.
- 00:20:16.557 --> 00:20:19.160
- It's that simple.
- 00:20:19.160 --> 00:20:20.461
- They'll they will
- 00:20:20.461 --> 00:20:21.629
- They will dress themselves in the progressive idealism.
- 00:20:21.629 --> 00:20:25.533
- But brandon johnson to formally lori lightfoot to j.b.
- 00:20:25.533 --> 00:20:28.936
- Pritzker,
- 00:20:28.936 --> 00:20:29.971
- They just want to be in charge
- 00:20:30.571 --> 00:20:31.806
- Because they have deeply disturbed personal lives.
- 00:20:31.806 --> 00:20:34.676
- They've never been able to create
- 00:20:34.676 --> 00:20:35.777
- Any value in the marketplace.
- 00:20:35.777 --> 00:20:37.045
- Do you notice the vast majority of these people
- 00:20:37.045 --> 00:20:39.614
- Have never actually created any value in their life?
- 00:20:39.614 --> 00:20:43.718
- They've only consumed value,
- 00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:46.621
- As you can see, exhibited right there.
- 00:20:46.621 --> 00:20:49.223
- Honestly, at this point.
- 00:20:49.223 --> 00:20:50.458
- If you make the 2026 midterms at least partially about
- 00:20:50.458 --> 00:20:53.695
- Urban crime, we're going to win on that topic.
- 00:20:53.695 --> 00:20:56.497
- Trust me, we are going to win on that topic.
- 00:20:56.497 --> 00:20:59.667
- Exhibit a play cut 325.
- 00:21:00.168 --> 00:21:02.337
- Sure they can they can complain about it.
- 00:21:02.337 --> 00:21:05.373
- They can point out
- 00:21:05.373 --> 00:21:06.474
- The weaknesses in it, and the dangers of it.
- 00:21:06.474 --> 00:21:10.011
- But as we learned in 2024, a large,
- 00:21:10.011 --> 00:21:13.681
- Portion of the american population,
- 00:21:13.681 --> 00:21:16.084
- In fact, nearly a majority doesn't particularly care
- 00:21:16.084 --> 00:21:19.654
- About the democracy argument or fear of authoritarianism,
- 00:21:19.654 --> 00:21:23.491
- Their fear of crime, even if the statistics don't
- 00:21:23.491 --> 00:21:26.627
- Support their fear of crime,
- 00:21:26.627 --> 00:21:28.363
- Their fear of crime is greater
- 00:21:28.363 --> 00:21:30.198
- Than the fear of authoritarianism.
- 00:21:30.198 --> 00:21:31.833
- Let me tell you why this is so impactful.
- 00:21:31.833 --> 00:21:33.935
- This ties to a thesis we've had before.
- 00:21:33.935 --> 00:21:35.937
- What does authoritarianism, democracy, and dictator
- 00:21:35.937 --> 00:21:39.540
- All have in common? these are abstractions.
- 00:21:39.540 --> 00:21:41.909
- You're kind of appealing towards an academic,
- 00:21:41.909 --> 00:21:45.546
- Esoteric air area.
- 00:21:45.980 --> 00:21:47.949
- Date phrase.
- 00:21:47.949 --> 00:21:51.052
- Instead, we're trying to improve the lived quality
- 00:21:52.086 --> 00:21:54.956
- Of life and experiences of real chicagoans.
- 00:21:54.956 --> 00:21:57.992
- I guarantee you right now, if chicagoans can roll
- 00:21:57.992 --> 00:21:59.994
- Down their window
- 00:21:59.994 --> 00:22:01.396
- At cross streets they otherwise couldn't,
- 00:22:01.396 --> 00:22:02.864
- They'll say, i don't care about authoritarianism.
- 00:22:02.864 --> 00:22:04.866
- My life is better.
- 00:22:04.866 --> 00:22:06.634
- I'm going to explain this more, which is that
- 00:22:06.634 --> 00:22:08.636
- The left is so college educated.
- 00:22:08.636 --> 00:22:11.672
- They are so insulated amongst academic debates.
- 00:22:11.672 --> 00:22:14.342
- They don't realize
- 00:22:14.342 --> 00:22:15.476
- Most of the country deals in quality of life issues.
- 00:22:15.476 --> 00:22:18.813
- Am i able to stop at a stoplight
- 00:22:18.813 --> 00:22:20.782
- And put down my window and enjoy it or not?
- 00:22:20.782 --> 00:22:23.484
- Can i walk to the sox game or not?
- 00:22:23.484 --> 00:22:26.120
- Right now you should not walk to the sox.
- 00:22:26.120 --> 00:22:27.755
- Do not do that.
- 00:22:27.755 --> 00:22:28.890
- Do not walk to comiskey park.
- 00:22:28.890 --> 00:22:30.658
- Do not do that. you might die
- 00:22:30.658 --> 00:22:34.362
- Friends just across israel's border inside syria.
- 00:22:35.396 --> 00:22:38.533
- Entire christian and druze families have been slaughtered
- 00:22:38.533 --> 00:22:42.103
- By islamic terrorists. it's shocking.
- 00:22:42.103 --> 00:22:44.272
- It's heartbreaking.
- 00:22:44.272 --> 00:22:45.306
- And the international fellowship of christians
- 00:22:45.306 --> 00:22:46.974
- And jews
- 00:22:46.974 --> 00:22:47.675
- Is there on the ground,
- 00:22:47.675 --> 00:22:48.843
- Working hand in hand with israel and the idf to respond.
- 00:22:48.843 --> 00:22:52.013
- The fellowship has rushed in over 1500 emergency food boxes.
- 00:22:52.013 --> 00:22:56.050
- They've opened
- 00:22:56.050 --> 00:22:57.218
- A brand new medical clinic in a village that had none.
- 00:22:57.218 --> 00:22:59.353
- Truckloads of medical equipment
- 00:22:59.353 --> 00:23:00.822
- And supplies went straight to hospitals
- 00:23:00.822 --> 00:23:02.557
- Because the need is so desperate.
- 00:23:02.557 --> 00:23:04.025
- This is our faith in action.
- 00:23:04.025 --> 00:23:05.359
- Israel is stopping the terrorists.
- 00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:07.061
- Now it's on us christians and jews to care
- 00:23:07.061 --> 00:23:08.930
- For the survivors,
- 00:23:08.930 --> 00:23:09.864
- To pray for the persecuted,
- 00:23:09.864 --> 00:23:11.265
- And to stand with them against evil.
- 00:23:11.265 --> 00:23:13.034
- I'm asking you to join me in
- 00:23:13.034 --> 00:23:14.235
- Standing with the international
- 00:23:14.235 --> 00:23:15.803
- Fellowship of christians and jews, right now called ifrc.
- 00:23:15.803 --> 00:23:18.606
- Jorg that is ifrc. jorg.
- 00:23:18.606 --> 00:23:20.775
- We could meet terror with compassion.
- 00:23:20.775 --> 00:23:22.510
- We can be part of bringing food, medical help
- 00:23:22.510 --> 00:23:24.445
- And hope to christian and druze communities in syria
- 00:23:24.445 --> 00:23:27.081
- Who need it most.
- 00:23:27.081 --> 00:23:27.081
