Charlie Kirk Today | Chip Roy: March 26, 2026 | Charlie Kirk Today | March 26, 2026

The topic at the lead here of
00:00:09.199 --> 00:00:11.634
Our show is to make a deal or not make a deal.
00:00:11.634 --> 00:00:15.672
It seems to be something of a mystery
00:00:15.672 --> 00:00:19.075
Whether or not one was even taking place.
00:00:19.075 --> 00:00:20.844
President trump says it is.
00:00:20.844 --> 00:00:22.712
We're going to deny it.
00:00:22.712 --> 00:00:24.481
But i think we've we've set up
00:00:24.481 --> 00:00:25.915
A permanent state of maximum excitement
00:00:25.915 --> 00:00:28.051
Where we're maximally open to a deal.
00:00:28.051 --> 00:00:30.019
We're always on the brink of a deal.
00:00:30.019 --> 00:00:31.454
And yet we're also permanently ready to go maximally hard.
00:00:31.454 --> 00:00:35.358
It's like, listen, it's got to be trump's.
00:00:35.358 --> 00:00:37.360
This is what they're calling
00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:38.761
Trump's strategy of the doctrine of unpredictability.
00:00:38.761 --> 00:00:42.999
And, you know, it's kind of the point
00:00:42.999 --> 00:00:45.835
I think it's kind of the point.
00:00:45.835 --> 00:00:47.537
So let's what are the deal parameters.
00:00:47.537 --> 00:00:49.506
And let's get to the clip.
00:00:49.506 --> 00:00:50.573
That is kind of spurring a lot of this discussion.
00:00:50.573 --> 00:00:53.977
The this was a wild moment from yesterday.
00:00:53.977 --> 00:00:58.047
It happened after our show wrapped yesterday.
00:00:58.047 --> 00:01:00.683
And president trump hints that, well, he didn't hint,
00:01:00.683 --> 00:01:03.853
He says directly that iran sent him a present.
00:01:03.853 --> 00:01:06.523
And it has a lot of people speculating
00:01:06.523 --> 00:01:08.057
What that present could be.
00:01:08.057 --> 00:01:09.993
It's not 13. they're going to make a deal.
00:01:09.993 --> 00:01:11.895
They did something yesterday that was amazing, actually.
00:01:11.895 --> 00:01:14.497
They gave us a present.
00:01:14.497 --> 00:01:17.267
And the president arrived today.
00:01:17.267 --> 00:01:19.669
It was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money.
00:01:19.669 --> 00:01:24.340
And i'm not going to tell you what that present is,
00:01:24.340 --> 00:01:26.709
But it was a very significant, prize.
00:01:26.709 --> 00:01:32.782
And they gave it to us
00:01:33.249 --> 00:01:34.250
And they said they were going to give it.
00:01:34.250 --> 00:01:35.385
So that meant one thing to me, would
00:01:35.385 --> 00:01:37.187
Dealing with the right people nuclear related?
00:01:37.187 --> 00:01:39.255
No, it wasn't nuclear related.
00:01:39.255 --> 00:01:41.324
It was oil and gas related.
00:01:41.324 --> 00:01:43.459
And it was a very nice thing they did.
00:01:43.459 --> 00:01:45.128
But what it showed me
00:01:45.128 --> 00:01:46.362
Is that we're dealing with the right people.
00:01:46.362 --> 00:01:47.964
It's so funny how he phrases that, because
00:01:47.964 --> 00:01:52.135
The description, even
00:01:52.635 --> 00:01:53.836
Though your mind goes to, you know, it's president trump.
00:01:53.836 --> 00:01:56.639
So you picture him getting like a giant medallion.
00:01:56.639 --> 00:01:59.108
He could hang in, you know, the oval office or something.
00:01:59.108 --> 00:02:01.811
But the implication i got is it could even be
00:02:01.811 --> 00:02:04.314
It could be something more abstract,
00:02:04.314 --> 00:02:05.782
Like worth a tremendous amount of money, oil and gas related.
00:02:05.782 --> 00:02:08.518
Well, we already saw the damage.
00:02:08.518 --> 00:02:10.186
We saw the damage, for example,
00:02:10.186 --> 00:02:11.487
When iran loved those missiles at that gas facility in qatar,
00:02:11.487 --> 00:02:15.158
Maybe they got evidence that an attack on
00:02:15.158 --> 00:02:18.194
A similar target got called off or got blocked.
00:02:18.194 --> 00:02:20.997
It could be anything.
00:02:20.997 --> 00:02:22.198
It could be strait of hormuz, it could be kharg island.
00:02:22.198 --> 00:02:23.800
It could be that it could be a number of things.
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.536
Trump's not giving us any details,
00:02:26.536 --> 00:02:28.605
But was interesting about the way this played out
00:02:28.605 --> 00:02:31.274
Yesterday was that the other legacy
00:02:31.274 --> 00:02:35.411
Media outlets were denying trump's claim that there is.
00:02:35.411 --> 00:02:37.780
We're not getting any reports from iranian sources
00:02:37.780 --> 00:02:40.450
That there is actually a peace deal in negotiation.
00:02:40.450 --> 00:02:44.587
And then eventually the legacy media was forced
00:02:44.587 --> 00:02:47.724
To walk back those claims.
00:02:47.724 --> 00:02:49.092
Sot 21 now learning from a senior iranian source
00:02:49.092 --> 00:02:53.096
That there has been an outreach between the u.s.
00:02:53.096 --> 00:02:55.431
And iran,
00:02:55.431 --> 00:02:56.633
The source tells cnn that this was initiated by washington.
00:02:56.633 --> 00:03:00.069
Cnn's only point of differentiation
00:03:00.069 --> 00:03:02.305
Here is that washington reached out to iran.
00:03:02.305 --> 00:03:04.941
First, president trump says, oh,
00:03:04.941 --> 00:03:06.509
They're desperate for a deal.
00:03:06.509 --> 00:03:08.444
And so it's it's remains unclear.
00:03:08.444 --> 00:03:11.648
Then there was this whole story that iran did
00:03:11.648 --> 00:03:14.484
Not want to work with jared kushner and steve whitcomb.
00:03:14.484 --> 00:03:17.353
They only wanted to work with j.d. vance.
00:03:17.353 --> 00:03:19.455
Now, j.d.
00:03:19.455 --> 00:03:20.556
Vance and the white house are denying those claims,
00:03:20.556 --> 00:03:23.393
Calling it foreign disinformation.
00:03:23.393 --> 00:03:25.695
So take from that what you will.
00:03:25.695 --> 00:03:27.930
But it remains that it does look like,
00:03:27.930 --> 00:03:31.234
You know, based on president trump's earlier warning,
00:03:31.234 --> 00:03:33.670
You gave them five days
00:03:33.670 --> 00:03:35.004
Or he was going to start striking there.
00:03:35.004 --> 00:03:37.607
Energy facilities, their oil and gas, infrastructure.
00:03:37.607 --> 00:03:42.145
He says he's got four days left
00:03:42.145 --> 00:03:43.446
And that they want to make a deal.
00:03:43.446 --> 00:03:45.448
We'll see. yeah, we'll we'll play another.
00:03:45.448 --> 00:03:47.317
Let's play another clip from president trump.
00:03:47.317 --> 00:03:48.851
So to give more flavor here, sop 14.
00:03:48.851 --> 00:03:52.655
But i can tell you they'd like to make a deal
00:03:52.655 --> 00:03:55.158
And who wouldn't if you were there? look
00:03:55.158 --> 00:03:57.794
There.
00:03:57.994 --> 00:03:58.428
Navy's gone.
00:03:58.428 --> 00:03:59.429
Their air force is gone.
00:03:59.429 --> 00:04:01.331
The communications are gone.
00:04:01.331 --> 00:04:02.565
And that's the biggest problem.
00:04:02.565 --> 00:04:04.000
It's very hard to communicate them between themselves.
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.004
All of the anti-aircraft is gone.
00:04:08.004 --> 00:04:10.440
Most of their missiles are gone.
00:04:10.440 --> 00:04:11.974
We shot either shot him or they shot him and
00:04:11.974 --> 00:04:15.044
Don't have them anymore.
00:04:15.044 --> 00:04:16.045
They're down to a trickle.
00:04:16.045 --> 00:04:18.114
They're,
00:04:18.114 --> 00:04:19.982
Pretty much everything they have is gone,
00:04:19.982 --> 00:04:21.551
I don't know.
00:04:21.551 --> 00:04:22.418
Can you name one thing that's not gone,
00:04:22.418 --> 00:04:23.986
Or can you name one thing that's doing well?
00:04:23.986 --> 00:04:26.923
You know,
00:04:27.223 --> 00:04:28.191
If you read the papers, you think we're tired?
00:04:28.191 --> 00:04:29.225
You think we're in a tough battle.
00:04:29.225 --> 00:04:31.027
We are roaming free over to iran.
00:04:31.027 --> 00:04:34.297
You know, i gave you guys a note of warning, right?
00:04:34.297 --> 00:04:38.101
There was a strike near,
00:04:38.101 --> 00:04:39.335
In israel from iran, near a nuclear facility there.
00:04:39.335 --> 00:04:43.106
That was a warning.
00:04:43.573 --> 00:04:44.607
There was also reports, potentially,
00:04:44.607 --> 00:04:46.275
That iran had stockpiles that were not previously
00:04:46.275 --> 00:04:48.745
Known of even more advanced missile stock.
00:04:48.745 --> 00:04:51.681
I have been calling around a lot of sources on this,
00:04:51.681 --> 00:04:55.685
And i will tell you, just as somebody
00:04:55.685 --> 00:04:57.954
That's an objective observer of this situation,
00:04:57.954 --> 00:05:01.357
The tone behind the scenes seems to have lifted.
00:05:01.357 --> 00:05:04.394
I'm hearing a lot more positivity
00:05:04.394 --> 00:05:06.262
About the potential outcome of this war.
00:05:06.262 --> 00:05:08.464
Speaker johnson is now saying he thinks operation epic
00:05:08.464 --> 00:05:12.402
Fury is about to get wrapped up this week.
00:05:12.402 --> 00:05:14.370
I don't know, maybe that's wishful thinking.
00:05:14.370 --> 00:05:16.506
Maybe that's glass half full rose colored glasses.
00:05:16.506 --> 00:05:19.208
But i will tell you just the tone of people
00:05:19.208 --> 00:05:22.812
That i'm speaking to has shifted.
00:05:22.812 --> 00:05:25.014
There is a note of positivity.
00:05:25.014 --> 00:05:27.483
Oil markets have edged down, which is a good sign.
00:05:27.483 --> 00:05:30.753
And if we can get a 15 point plan over the finish line,
00:05:30.753 --> 00:05:34.657
That would be good. that's what's going on right now.
00:05:34.657 --> 00:05:36.893
Reportedly, a 15 point plan was sent by the us through
00:05:36.893 --> 00:05:40.897
Whatever,
00:05:40.897 --> 00:05:41.697
I think through pakistan, pakistan
00:05:41.697 --> 00:05:43.065
To whoever and iran we are currently negotiating with.
00:05:43.065 --> 00:05:47.003
And we don't have the list of the 15 points,
00:05:47.003 --> 00:05:49.372
But there's reporting from the york times,
00:05:49.372 --> 00:05:50.673
From al jazeera and others on what it probably includes
00:05:50.673 --> 00:05:54.177
That would include a initial 30 day ceasefire,
00:05:54.177 --> 00:05:57.747
Dismantling of iran's existing
00:05:57.747 --> 00:06:00.149
Nuclear facilities at fordo, isfahan, natanz,
00:06:00.149 --> 00:06:03.119
A permanent that we're demanding
00:06:03.119 --> 00:06:05.021
A permanent commitment
00:06:05.021 --> 00:06:06.322
From iran to never develop any nuclear capabilities.
00:06:06.322 --> 00:06:09.125
President trump has said over and over already agreed
00:06:09.125 --> 00:06:12.228
That trump has said they've already agreed to
00:06:12.228 --> 00:06:14.130
Reopening the strait of hormuz.
00:06:14.130 --> 00:06:15.965
An end.
00:06:15.965 --> 00:06:16.966
This is a big one
00:06:16.966 --> 00:06:17.834
And end of iran supporting
00:06:17.834 --> 00:06:19.368
These military proxies across the middle east.
00:06:19.368 --> 00:06:22.138
That's like hezbollah in lebanon,
00:06:22.138 --> 00:06:24.073
That's the houthis in yemen.
00:06:24.073 --> 00:06:26.375
Those have constantly been the kind of sore that's
00:06:26.375 --> 00:06:29.245
Caused tensions and problems all over the place.
00:06:29.245 --> 00:06:32.248
I mean, we have separately from the iran war,
00:06:32.248 --> 00:06:34.116
There is a war going on in lebanon right now
00:06:34.116 --> 00:06:35.818
That has killed as many, if not more people
00:06:35.818 --> 00:06:38.354
Than the one in iran.
00:06:38.354 --> 00:06:39.622
And that's because of hezbollah existing in southern lebanon.
00:06:39.622 --> 00:06:43.593
And so they have similar demands.
00:06:43.593 --> 00:06:45.862
And we even agreed, apparently, that we would have, u.s.
00:06:45.862 --> 00:06:48.898
Support for electricity generation
00:06:48.898 --> 00:06:50.733
At a civil nuclear plant if there really insisting
00:06:50.733 --> 00:06:53.569
They need some sort of nuclear power.
00:06:53.569 --> 00:06:55.438
So far, iran's and an ending of propaganda has said
00:06:56.506 --> 00:06:59.876
They're rejecting all of this, and instead
00:06:59.876 --> 00:07:01.811
They have their own five point plan, which would include that
00:07:01.811 --> 00:07:04.547
We give them control of the strait of hormuz,
00:07:04.547 --> 00:07:07.350
Permanent legal right to do.
00:07:07.350 --> 00:07:08.885
I, i think we're unlikely to make that agreement.
00:07:08.885 --> 00:07:11.287
Yeah. they've got no cards on that.
00:07:11.287 --> 00:07:13.289
I don't think,
00:07:13.289 --> 00:07:14.490
They have some cards, but they don't have a lot of cards.
00:07:14.490 --> 00:07:16.058
But yeah.
00:07:16.058 --> 00:07:17.226
Listen.
00:07:17.226 --> 00:07:18.127
And by the way, president trump has said
00:07:18.127 --> 00:07:19.128
That point one, two and three of his 15 point
00:07:19.128 --> 00:07:21.264
Plan is no nuclear weapons and it's trump.
00:07:21.264 --> 00:07:24.100
So you can imagine one, two and three.
00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:25.568
I'll just say iran will have no nuclear weapons.
00:07:25.568 --> 00:07:28.004
But listen there i,
00:07:28.004 --> 00:07:30.006
I'm just i'm calling balls and strikes here.
00:07:30.006 --> 00:07:31.841
I'm telling you, the the tone has shifted with many people
00:07:31.841 --> 00:07:35.945
That were very negative, just a few days ago.
00:07:35.945 --> 00:07:39.348
There seems to be a sense of optimism.
00:07:40.182 --> 00:07:42.818
Let's hope that that holds, that
00:07:42.818 --> 00:07:48.009
Let's hope that that holds, that
00:07:48.009 --> 00:07:53.565
I want to pivot our attention
00:07:54.198 --> 00:07:55.967
To what's happening with this dhs, dhs funding fight,
00:07:55.967 --> 00:07:59.337
Because it's all happening upon the backdrop
00:07:59.337 --> 00:08:02.073
Of this sheridan gorman killing in chicago.
00:08:02.073 --> 00:08:05.009
Right.
00:08:05.009 --> 00:08:06.144
So you have dhs to defend and protect the homeland.
00:08:06.144 --> 00:08:11.783
One of those jobs is,
00:08:11.783 --> 00:08:13.151
Yes, deport illegal aliens, deport criminals.
00:08:13.151 --> 00:08:15.920
Some of that is fema funding.
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:17.855
Some of that is tsa.
00:08:17.855 --> 00:08:20.959
A lot of these different dhs is huge.
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:23.394
And now you've got secretary marquand
00:08:23.394 --> 00:08:25.229
Mullen who's just been sworn in.
00:08:25.229 --> 00:08:27.332
Congratulations to, secretary mullen.
00:08:27.332 --> 00:08:29.968
He was,
00:08:29.968 --> 00:08:31.202
He's been a friend of the show and been on many, many times.
00:08:31.202 --> 00:08:33.504
And so i think he's the perfect guy for the job.
00:08:33.504 --> 00:08:35.607
We had tom homan on yesterday
00:08:35.607 --> 00:08:37.008
Saying that he's the perfect guy at the perfect time.
00:08:37.008 --> 00:08:39.277
So let's hope that his tenure is a successful one.
00:08:39.277 --> 00:08:42.480
But, you know, listen, i don't typically play
00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:44.782
Clips from tom emmer.
00:08:44.782 --> 00:08:45.883
I got some, some, history and scar tissue.
00:08:45.883 --> 00:08:48.686
Just from some of the stuff.
00:08:48.686 --> 00:08:50.021
But he did say this very well here.
00:08:50.021 --> 00:08:52.290
And so i'm going to give the man is due cut 12.
00:08:52.290 --> 00:08:54.726
The illegal alien who killed sheridan gorman
00:08:54.726 --> 00:08:57.295
Is exactly who democrats are fighting to protect.
00:08:57.295 --> 00:09:00.765
With their needless shutdown
00:09:00.765 --> 00:09:02.166
Of the department of homeland security.
00:09:02.166 --> 00:09:04.369
Their absurd list of demands paints a clear picture.
00:09:04.369 --> 00:09:08.139
Open borders, limited deportations,
00:09:08.940 --> 00:09:11.809
And violent illegal aliens roaming free.
00:09:11.809 --> 00:09:15.380
Democrats want to return america to the days
00:09:15.380 --> 00:09:17.582
Of the biden border crisis, but that's not going to happen.
00:09:17.582 --> 00:09:21.319
We're not going to go back this week.
00:09:21.319 --> 00:09:23.421
The house is going to vote once again to fund all of dhs.
00:09:23.421 --> 00:09:27.725
We will vote to end this shutdown, pay the frontline
00:09:27.725 --> 00:09:30.928
Heroes, border patrol, tsa and the coast guard,
00:09:30.928 --> 00:09:33.965
And put the security of our nation first.
00:09:33.965 --> 00:09:37.335
But democrats will continue to obstruct. why?
00:09:37.335 --> 00:09:42.240
Because they'd rather protect violent
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:44.308
Illegal aliens over the american people.
00:09:44.308 --> 00:09:47.045
They they want to protect illegal aliens.
00:09:47.045 --> 00:09:49.347
I don't know why.
00:09:49.347 --> 00:09:50.148
Now, their newest demand
00:09:50.148 --> 00:09:51.182
Is that they want to remove funding from htsci,
00:09:51.182 --> 00:09:54.752
Which is the investigative arm of homeland security.
00:09:54.752 --> 00:09:57.955
It's exactly as we said yesterday, which is the problem
00:09:57.955 --> 00:10:01.559
With talking about so much of the left
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:03.294
Is when you honestly describe their policies.
00:10:03.294 --> 00:10:05.630
You sound insane
00:10:05.630 --> 00:10:07.131
Because it is unfathomably deranged and evil.
00:10:07.131 --> 00:10:11.135
But when you're defunding homeland
00:10:11.135 --> 00:10:12.737
Security investigations, when you're defunding is the
00:10:12.737 --> 00:10:16.174
Policy intent of this is make it so
00:10:16.174 --> 00:10:19.343
Anyone in
00:10:19.343 --> 00:10:20.578
The world can come to america, and it is impossible for them
00:10:20.578 --> 00:10:22.680
To be taken out.
00:10:22.680 --> 00:10:23.648
They'll say, oh, we want the worst
00:10:23.648 --> 00:10:25.349
Offenders to be deported.
00:10:25.349 --> 00:10:27.218
But they do not believe it. they are lying.
00:10:27.218 --> 00:10:29.654
You obviously don't want that.
00:10:29.654 --> 00:10:30.788
If you want to defund hsa,
00:10:30.788 --> 00:10:32.356
If you're defunding that,
00:10:32.356 --> 00:10:33.257
If you want,
00:10:33.257 --> 00:10:34.392
If you're going to make it. it's like when they say,
00:10:34.392 --> 00:10:35.793
We know voter fraud doesn't exist.
00:10:35.793 --> 00:10:37.562
So we're never,
00:10:37.562 --> 00:10:38.796
Ever going to investigate it or indict anyone or look at it.
00:10:38.796 --> 00:10:41.733
Voter total see no evil because if these people
00:10:41.733 --> 00:10:46.637
Are showing up at the border
00:10:46.637 --> 00:10:47.605
And you're going to let them in,
00:10:47.605 --> 00:10:48.606
And then if they blow off their hearing,
00:10:48.606 --> 00:10:50.508
You're not going to find them, you're not going to have
00:10:50.508 --> 00:10:52.410
Any ice agents to make the arrest and ship them back.
00:10:52.410 --> 00:10:55.246
You're going to bar
00:10:55.246 --> 00:10:57.548
Agents from even going to courtrooms
00:10:57.548 --> 00:10:59.217
And prisons to pick up
00:10:59.217 --> 00:11:00.251
The ones who get caught committing crimes.
00:11:00.251 --> 00:11:02.687
Your position is anyone,
00:11:02.687 --> 00:11:04.722
Especially criminals, has the right to come
00:11:04.722 --> 00:11:06.691
To the united states and stay here forever.
00:11:06.691 --> 00:11:08.526
Well, what's interesting is we have this clip from none
00:11:08.526 --> 00:11:11.429
Other than hakeem jeffries in 2015
00:11:11.429 --> 00:11:14.499
Talking about playing politics with dhs funding sop for
00:11:14.499 --> 00:11:17.935
We are here today to do a single job,
00:11:17.935 --> 00:11:21.139
And that should be to fund fully the department
00:11:21.139 --> 00:11:24.442
Of homeland security.
00:11:24.442 --> 00:11:25.643
Anything else?
00:11:25.643 --> 00:11:27.512
Is it abdication of our responsibility?
00:11:27.512 --> 00:11:30.581
Anything else is an act of legislative
00:11:30.581 --> 00:11:33.684
Malpractice simply because of the inability
00:11:33.684 --> 00:11:36.420
Of my friends on the other side of the aisle
00:11:37.321 --> 00:11:39.357
To satisfy the thirst of the extreme right
00:11:39.357 --> 00:11:42.994
Wing, anti-immigration base of the party.
00:11:42.994 --> 00:11:47.098
And so we're playing political games well,
00:11:47.999 --> 00:11:50.868
That's a far cry from the modern democrat party.
00:11:50.868 --> 00:11:54.305
Let's go ahead and play.
00:11:54.305 --> 00:11:55.540
This is philly,
00:11:55.540 --> 00:11:56.774
Da larry krasner, soros funded larry krasner.
00:11:56.774 --> 00:12:00.378
He is now threatening to arrest ice agents
00:12:00.378 --> 00:12:03.181
If they come to his airport to help,
00:12:03.181 --> 00:12:05.082
You know, lessen the security lines.
00:12:05.082 --> 00:12:07.652
Saturnine. this is how it works.
00:12:07.652 --> 00:12:09.854
You commit crimes within the jurisdiction
00:12:09.854 --> 00:12:13.024
That is the city and county of philadelphia.
00:12:13.024 --> 00:12:15.493
I prosecute you, that is how it works.
00:12:15.493 --> 00:12:19.163
No, i don't take a phone call from the president saying,
00:12:19.163 --> 00:12:21.833
Let them go.
00:12:21.833 --> 00:12:22.700
No, the president cannot pardon you.
00:12:22.700 --> 00:12:25.203
I'll say it again.
00:12:25.203 --> 00:12:26.103
The president cannot pardon you.
00:12:26.103 --> 00:12:28.339
And yes,
00:12:28.339 --> 00:12:30.208
I will put you in handcuffs and i will put you
00:12:30.208 --> 00:12:32.944
In a courtroom.
00:12:32.944 --> 00:12:33.978
And if necessary, i will put you in a jail cell.
00:12:33.978 --> 00:12:36.747
It's infuriating.
00:12:36.747 --> 00:12:37.815
They treat ice agents like they are the gestapo.
00:12:37.815 --> 00:12:40.251
That's why they describe them like the gestapo.
00:12:40.251 --> 00:12:42.653
This is the same krasner, by the way,
00:12:42.653 --> 00:12:44.288
Who was promising to hunt down ice agents like nazis,
00:12:44.288 --> 00:12:47.758
A couple, he's just despicable. he.
00:12:47.758 --> 00:12:49.360
He is a man who loves criminals.
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:51.262
He supports criminals.
00:12:51.262 --> 00:12:52.597
He celebrates when criminals are able to kill america.
00:12:52.597 --> 00:12:55.066
Yeah, that's
00:12:55.066 --> 00:12:55.633
That's what's hilarious
00:12:55.633 --> 00:12:56.601
Comment is that he's saying i hunt down
00:12:56.601 --> 00:12:58.603
Criminals and i prosecute criminals.
00:12:58.603 --> 00:13:00.004
Well, no you don't, larry krasner.
00:13:00.004 --> 00:13:02.073
No, you don't.
00:13:02.073 --> 00:13:02.974
Actually, you you get to pick and choose
00:13:02.974 --> 00:13:04.775
Which criminals if you want to hunt down.
00:13:04.775 --> 00:13:06.744
And we have one more blast from the.
00:13:06.744 --> 00:13:08.679
It feels like a blast from the past to me,
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:10.381
But it really is indicative
00:13:10.381 --> 00:13:11.582
Of the values of the left that persists.
00:13:11.582 --> 00:13:13.618
There is no moderation on the immigration issue from them.
00:13:13.618 --> 00:13:16.487
And this is so we were talking about sheridan gorman.
00:13:16.487 --> 00:13:18.990
She was a murder. she was murdered.
00:13:18.990 --> 00:13:20.191
She was a student at loyola in chicago.
00:13:20.191 --> 00:13:23.394
And this is how her own student newspaper wrote up
00:13:23.394 --> 00:13:27.265
What had happened.
00:13:27.265 --> 00:13:28.299
They wrote an article about it that had the title
00:13:28.299 --> 00:13:30.434
Immigrant man
00:13:30.434 --> 00:13:31.569
Charged in murder of sheridan gorman, dhs involved,
00:13:31.569 --> 00:13:34.272
And they have updated
00:13:34.272 --> 00:13:35.206
Their story and issued a lengthy apology
00:13:35.206 --> 00:13:38.042
Because they say
00:13:38.042 --> 00:13:39.644
They didn't write about it in the way
00:13:39.644 --> 00:13:41.012
That reflects
00:13:41.012 --> 00:13:42.213
Their standards and values, because they described the man
00:13:42.213 --> 00:13:45.216
Who murdered
00:13:45.216 --> 00:13:46.317
Sheridan gorman allegedly as an illegal immigrant.
00:13:46.317 --> 00:13:49.387
Yeah, go to that headline again, that image of it.
00:13:49.387 --> 00:13:51.822
So that language does not align with associated press style,
00:13:51.822 --> 00:13:55.259
Nor does it align with the values of this newspaper.
00:13:55.259 --> 00:13:58.329
No human's existence is illegal,
00:13:58.329 --> 00:14:00.998
And we quickly changed
00:14:00.998 --> 00:14:02.199
Our wording to reflect that we acknowledge the harm
00:14:02.199 --> 00:14:05.102
Such language can cause, and the power
00:14:05.102 --> 00:14:07.271
And importance of the words we choose to use.
00:14:07.271 --> 00:14:10.675
We deeply regret these errors.
00:14:10.675 --> 00:14:13.611
How about we deeply regret
00:14:13.611 --> 00:14:15.146
That in a legal foreigner came to the united states
00:14:15.146 --> 00:14:17.848
And murdered a woman in a robbery,
00:14:17.848 --> 00:14:19.583
A woman who did nothing wrong and was basically executed
00:14:19.583 --> 00:14:22.320
By someone who should have never been here?
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:24.622
That's that's a
00:14:24.989 --> 00:14:26.223
Truly offensive, disgusting, gross headline
00:14:26.223 --> 00:14:30.027
We'll be right back with chip roy,
00:14:30.027 --> 00:14:35.004
We'll be right back with chip roy,
00:14:35.004 --> 00:14:39.931
Chip roy's running for attorney general.
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:43.101
The great state of texas.
00:14:43.101 --> 00:14:44.402
Turning point action endorsed.
00:14:44.402 --> 00:14:46.171
Welcome back to the show, sir.
00:14:46.171 --> 00:14:49.174
Hey, great to be on, guys.
00:14:49.174 --> 00:14:50.075
Hope you're doing well. absolutely.
00:14:50.075 --> 00:14:51.576
I want to read a, tweet here from bill collusion.
00:14:51.576 --> 00:14:55.413
He said breaking acting tsa administrator miss ha nguyen
00:14:55.413 --> 00:14:59.384
Mcneil testifies that currently, tsa
00:14:59.384 --> 00:15:02.153
Is suffering the longest
00:15:02.153 --> 00:15:03.388
Wait lines in agency history, with call out rates hitting 40
00:15:03.388 --> 00:15:07.292
To 50% at some airports, and more than 400 employees
00:15:07.292 --> 00:15:11.863
Have quit since the shutdown began.
00:15:11.863 --> 00:15:14.833
There is over $1 billion in paychecks,
00:15:14.833 --> 00:15:17.802
Outstanding.
00:15:17.802 --> 00:15:20.772
What are we doing here, chip?
00:15:20.772 --> 00:15:23.875
Well, what's happening here is, democrats are trying to,
00:15:23.875 --> 00:15:26.945
You know, leverage and hold hostage
00:15:26.945 --> 00:15:28.446
The american people to try to score political points,
00:15:28.446 --> 00:15:30.582
Which is somewhat ironic because,
00:15:30.582 --> 00:15:32.117
I don't know how they're scoring political points
00:15:32.117 --> 00:15:33.785
With anybody other than the very invaders,
00:15:33.785 --> 00:15:36.021
And proponents of sanctuary cities
00:15:36.021 --> 00:15:38.256
That they're standing alongside.
00:15:38.256 --> 00:15:39.824
Look,
00:15:39.824 --> 00:15:40.458
My only gripe is
00:15:40.458 --> 00:15:41.626
I think republicans need to do a better job on the hill,
00:15:41.626 --> 00:15:44.162
Painting the picture that it is democrats
00:15:44.162 --> 00:15:46.031
That is causing this issue.
00:15:46.031 --> 00:15:47.499
We've got to go on offense that democrats are making
00:15:47.499 --> 00:15:50.735
The lives of the american people miserable.
00:15:50.735 --> 00:15:52.837
I have friends in houston.
00:15:52.837 --> 00:15:54.005
I think you saw probably on social media.
00:15:54.005 --> 00:15:56.641
I hopefully you didn't experience yourself.
00:15:56.641 --> 00:15:58.176
Friends of mine did.
00:15:58.176 --> 00:15:59.210
In houston, there were four and five and six.
00:15:59.210 --> 00:16:01.146
Our wasted mr..
00:16:01.146 --> 00:16:02.013
Flights spent overnight in the airport.
00:16:02.013 --> 00:16:05.083
This stuff is having a real impact on americans.
00:16:05.083 --> 00:16:07.385
Meanwhile, democrats are wanting to saddle up
00:16:07.385 --> 00:16:09.754
With the very people who are causing the issue.
00:16:09.754 --> 00:16:11.489
So we've got to just keep our foot on the gas.
00:16:11.489 --> 00:16:14.392
I don't really love what i was hearing
00:16:14.392 --> 00:16:16.294
Come out of the senate about some sort of,
00:16:16.294 --> 00:16:18.096
You know, well, let's fund dhs all except for ice.
00:16:18.096 --> 00:16:21.366
Look, democrats are saying that we shouldn't have ice
00:16:21.366 --> 00:16:24.969
Out there enforcing the law and removing dangerous aliens.
00:16:24.969 --> 00:16:28.606
And for that,
00:16:28.606 --> 00:16:29.641
They want to make americans
00:16:29.641 --> 00:16:30.975
Wait in line and not be able to go travel around the country.
00:16:30.975 --> 00:16:34.045
Let's make them own it.
00:16:34.546 --> 00:16:35.747
And let's stand up for ice.
00:16:35.747 --> 00:16:37.348
Let's not try to, give them a hall pass,
00:16:37.348 --> 00:16:39.651
An off ramp to deal with ice.
00:16:39.651 --> 00:16:41.686
You have an issue here, congressman,
00:16:41.686 --> 00:16:43.521
That is near and dear to blake knapp's heart.
00:16:43.521 --> 00:16:45.590
So i'm going to take it up.
00:16:45.590 --> 00:16:46.591
You i'll set it up.
00:16:46.591 --> 00:16:48.259
You, it says rep. chip rises.
00:16:48.259 --> 00:16:50.528
Breitbart introduces career criminal accountability
00:16:50.528 --> 00:16:53.231
Act targeting repeat offenders.
00:16:53.231 --> 00:16:54.732
You're speaking his love language. yes, sir.
00:16:54.732 --> 00:16:56.701
Yes, indeed.
00:16:56.701 --> 00:16:57.569
I mean, it's we've seen over and over
00:16:57.569 --> 00:16:59.337
I was telling andrew there's a classic headline.
00:16:59.337 --> 00:17:02.173
I think it was from the york times, but i'm not sure.
00:17:02.173 --> 00:17:04.309
But where the headline was, prison
00:17:04.309 --> 00:17:07.078
Population surge despite fall in crime.
00:17:07.078 --> 00:17:09.948
And i think we were going through another wave.
00:17:09.948 --> 00:17:13.184
It's happened 2 or 3 times, even in our lifetimes, of us
00:17:13.184 --> 00:17:17.055
Reminding ourselves that the best way to stop crime
00:17:17.055 --> 00:17:19.591
Is to put a pretty
00:17:19.591 --> 00:17:21.326
Tiny number of people just behind bars for good,
00:17:21.326 --> 00:17:25.363
Because there are some people
00:17:25.363 --> 00:17:26.264
Who, if they are free, will do crimes.
00:17:26.264 --> 00:17:28.433
Bring back the three strikes rule.
00:17:28.433 --> 00:17:29.801
That's what i'm about. but anyways.
00:17:29.801 --> 00:17:31.169
So yeah, tell us about your bill.
00:17:31.169 --> 00:17:33.204
Yeah, well, first of all, you look, i'm, 53 years old.
00:17:34.305 --> 00:17:36.975
I grew up in the 80s and high school, 90s in college.
00:17:36.975 --> 00:17:39.777
I saw dc when it was just an absolute cesspool.
00:17:39.777 --> 00:17:43.281
You know, in new york city,
00:17:43.281 --> 00:17:45.049
Obviously, when it was very dangerous.
00:17:45.049 --> 00:17:46.384
And then we, we actually,
00:17:46.384 --> 00:17:48.286
You know, through broken glass,
00:17:48.286 --> 00:17:49.687
Through all the different policies
00:17:49.687 --> 00:17:51.189
That, you know, mayor giuliani
00:17:51.189 --> 00:17:52.690
And others carried out in the dc,
00:17:52.690 --> 00:17:54.459
We actually started getting this country
00:17:54.459 --> 00:17:56.427
To a pretty good spot,
00:17:56.427 --> 00:17:57.862
And we were putting criminals in jail,
00:17:57.862 --> 00:17:59.664
And we were going after ways to stop judges
00:17:59.664 --> 00:18:02.967
Who were putting people back out on the street. right.
00:18:02.967 --> 00:18:05.203
So that's what happened when we came in
00:18:05.203 --> 00:18:06.871
And we had three strikes around.
00:18:06.871 --> 00:18:08.406
We had, you know, mandatory sentences in order
00:18:08.406 --> 00:18:11.242
To step in front of judges who weren't doing their job.
00:18:11.242 --> 00:18:14.279
Well, then, you know, things
00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:15.313
Got a pretty good it's a pretty safe country.
00:18:15.313 --> 00:18:17.482
And then you heard
00:18:17.482 --> 00:18:18.516
And you just know that it's really important.
00:18:18.516 --> 00:18:20.285
You know, that about, you know, well, who's in jail.
00:18:20.285 --> 00:18:22.187
You kept hearing people say, well, gosh,
00:18:22.187 --> 00:18:24.088
3 million people in jail in the united states,
00:18:24.088 --> 00:18:26.124
More than any other country, like.
00:18:26.124 --> 00:18:27.825
Well, yeah, that
00:18:27.825 --> 00:18:29.427
That might have something to do with
00:18:29.427 --> 00:18:30.962
Why we're a pretty safe country.
00:18:30.962 --> 00:18:32.697
So what happened was everybody said, well,
00:18:32.697 --> 00:18:34.999
Let's start letting some of these folks out
00:18:34.999 --> 00:18:36.534
And let's go back to sort of soft on crime policies.
00:18:36.534 --> 00:18:38.836
Well, guess what?
00:18:38.836 --> 00:18:39.704
Crime's been spiking now.
00:18:39.704 --> 00:18:41.272
We've got judges putting criminals on the streets.
00:18:41.272 --> 00:18:43.274
Crime stoppers in houston said that there have been 220
00:18:43.274 --> 00:18:46.911
Houstonians who were murdered by multiple time felons
00:18:46.911 --> 00:18:50.848
Who had been in and out,
00:18:50.848 --> 00:18:51.983
In and out of jail and being arrested
00:18:51.983 --> 00:18:54.986
And let free by judges, 220 houstonians murdered.
00:18:54.986 --> 00:18:59.190
That's insane. that's texas.
00:18:59.190 --> 00:19:01.492
That's not dc, that's not san francisco.
00:19:01.492 --> 00:19:03.595
Is that new york? it's texas.
00:19:03.595 --> 00:19:05.496
This is one of the reasons i'm running for attorney general.
00:19:05.496 --> 00:19:07.632
I introduced this bill federally to restore
00:19:07.632 --> 00:19:10.635
Three strikes,
00:19:10.635 --> 00:19:11.603
Which have been watered down through various
00:19:11.603 --> 00:19:13.304
Sentencing guidelines changes over the years.
00:19:13.304 --> 00:19:15.540
And i want to restore a really better model
00:19:15.540 --> 00:19:18.042
For three strikes.
00:19:18.042 --> 00:19:18.843
And you're out there really focuses
00:19:18.843 --> 00:19:20.511
On, felons who engage in dangerous criminal activity.
00:19:20.511 --> 00:19:24.082
You reminded me of this clip and i don't have it loaded yet,
00:19:24.082 --> 00:19:26.684
But there was a 2023 clip from mpd chief robert contee.
00:19:26.684 --> 00:19:30.922
So out of dc, he's now retired.
00:19:30.922 --> 00:19:32.523
But he said the average homicide suspect
00:19:32.523 --> 00:19:34.626
Has been arrested 11 times prior
00:19:34.626 --> 00:19:37.428
To committing a homicide 11 times in dc.
00:19:37.428 --> 00:19:41.699
Well, it's one of those things.
00:19:41.699 --> 00:19:42.867
You know,
00:19:42.867 --> 00:19:43.268
My first legal
00:19:43.268 --> 00:19:44.335
Job was actually in the office of attorney general,
00:19:44.335 --> 00:19:45.937
And i worked in the prosecutor's offices
00:19:45.937 --> 00:19:47.538
Division, and i worked in
00:19:47.538 --> 00:19:48.439
What we call the it's
00:19:48.439 --> 00:19:49.741
Now called the habeas division,
00:19:49.741 --> 00:19:50.975
Which is where we would go to appeals
00:19:50.975 --> 00:19:52.744
And we'd fight to keep, you know, keep people in jail
00:19:52.744 --> 00:19:56.080
Or to go ahead and execute them through capital punishment.
00:19:56.080 --> 00:19:59.083
And people ask me all the time,
00:19:59.083 --> 00:20:01.085
Well, what do you think about that?
00:20:01.085 --> 00:20:02.120
You know what?
00:20:02.120 --> 00:20:03.054
If you get the wrong guy, i'm like, okay,
00:20:03.054 --> 00:20:04.956
Look at the rap sheets.
00:20:04.956 --> 00:20:06.591
Like i'd go through and look at these guys.
00:20:06.591 --> 00:20:08.226
I pull out the rap sheets and there would be this law, right?
00:20:08.226 --> 00:20:12.096
Just felony assault, rape, you know, theft.
00:20:12.096 --> 00:20:16.200
You know,
00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:17.335
Maybe a previous murder they've been released on, like,
00:20:17.335 --> 00:20:19.470
These were the worst of the worst.
00:20:19.470 --> 00:20:21.272
And, you know, at that time, the early 2000,
00:20:21.272 --> 00:20:23.608
We were doing a pretty good job of keeping them in jail
00:20:23.608 --> 00:20:26.210
Or carrying out capital punishment.
00:20:26.210 --> 00:20:28.079
We moved the other way, even in texas,
00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:30.515
And as a result, we now have increased crime.
00:20:30.515 --> 00:20:33.785
And i saw that clip before, before we,
00:20:33.785 --> 00:20:35.853
Over the segment change.
00:20:35.853 --> 00:20:37.655
Charlie talking about,
00:20:37.655 --> 00:20:39.357
Hey, i think dc will be a safer place
00:20:39.357 --> 00:20:41.759
If we get the national guard in there,
00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:42.994
If the president gets his way. and guess what?
00:20:42.994 --> 00:20:45.430
He sees a much better place than it was a year ago
00:20:45.430 --> 00:20:48.199
When we had, spiking, crime.
00:20:48.199 --> 00:20:50.768
And we had members of congress staffers
00:20:50.768 --> 00:20:53.771
Who were getting, assaulted.
00:20:53.771 --> 00:20:55.606
Some of you were getting shot and killed.
00:20:55.606 --> 00:20:57.408
Very rarely does someone start with a severe crime.
00:20:57.408 --> 00:20:59.711
They start with lesser ones.
00:20:59.711 --> 00:21:01.012
If you enforce your basic laws, you'll have fewer murders,
00:21:01.012 --> 00:21:04.849
Fewer rapes, fewer severe assaults.
00:21:04.849 --> 00:21:07.785
And i'm glad you mentioned the death penalty,
00:21:07.785 --> 00:21:09.654
Because i know, frankly,
00:21:09.654 --> 00:21:10.755
That's an important dimension of this as well.
00:21:10.755 --> 00:21:12.523
We've seen as attorney general
00:21:12.523 --> 00:21:13.891
The we've seen the pattern of the left, which is,
00:21:13.891 --> 00:21:16.828
Among other things,
00:21:16.828 --> 00:21:17.762
Just if you get rid of the death penalty,
00:21:17.762 --> 00:21:19.530
They immediately move on
00:21:19.530 --> 00:21:20.631
To what we've seen in california,
00:21:20.631 --> 00:21:22.266
Where now anyone with a life sentence who's over 50
00:21:22.266 --> 00:21:26.037
Can get parole for being elderly.
00:21:26.037 --> 00:21:28.873
And so we're seeing
00:21:28.873 --> 00:21:30.074
These serial child abductors and rapists being released,
00:21:30.074 --> 00:21:33.244
At an age where they could still easily offend again.
00:21:33.244 --> 00:21:36.481
So even in texas, though,
00:21:36.481 --> 00:21:38.783
I know the number of executions has gone down over time.
00:21:38.783 --> 00:21:42.420
Yeah.
00:21:42.420 --> 00:21:43.287
Can you tell us, do you have any plan
00:21:43.287 --> 00:21:44.222
To make sure
00:21:44.222 --> 00:21:45.423
That when someone is sentenced to death for heinous crime,
00:21:45.423 --> 00:21:48.559
They will actually face accountability for it?
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:51.362
Yeah.
00:21:51.596 --> 00:21:52.597
One of the things you do as attorney general
00:21:52.597 --> 00:21:53.631
Is you're in charge of the capital litigation
00:21:53.631 --> 00:21:54.999
Division, the habeas division, to ensure that,
00:21:54.999 --> 00:21:57.802
Bad guys stay in jail or they're,
00:21:57.802 --> 00:21:59.937
You know, the execution is carried out.
00:21:59.937 --> 00:22:01.773
When i was the first assistant attorney general, i went down
00:22:01.773 --> 00:22:05.209
And with the attorney general and we witnessed
00:22:05.209 --> 00:22:07.011
An execution of a cop killer met with the families.
00:22:07.011 --> 00:22:09.714
You met with the the police officers who all came there.
00:22:09.714 --> 00:22:13.518
And it's important.
00:22:13.518 --> 00:22:14.819
And people understand
00:22:14.819 --> 00:22:16.120
This is an important part of punishment,
00:22:16.120 --> 00:22:18.156
And it's it's where it's appropriate.
00:22:18.156 --> 00:22:20.358
It should be carried out.
00:22:20.358 --> 00:22:21.726
Look, we need bad guys to be in jail.
00:22:21.726 --> 00:22:24.028
We need the worst offenders to be removed entirely. i'm
00:22:24.028 --> 00:22:27.298
In favor of capital punishment for our worst offenders.
00:22:27.298 --> 00:22:29.700
We need to make sure that we secure our border
00:22:29.700 --> 00:22:32.036
Regardless of who's in the white house.
00:22:32.036 --> 00:22:33.838
That's another reason i'm running for attorney general.
00:22:33.838 --> 00:22:35.640
You can't assume donald trump and perpetuity
00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:38.242
And all of that stuff added up with cartels, gang members,
00:22:38.242 --> 00:22:41.379
Criminals on the streets,
00:22:41.379 --> 00:22:42.713
All of the leftists in the marxist
00:22:42.713 --> 00:22:44.215
Who are carrying out the arabella network
00:22:44.215 --> 00:22:46.317
And the ren collective,
00:22:46.317 --> 00:22:47.418
And all of these groups that are funded, by the way,
00:22:47.418 --> 00:22:50.221
By our tax dollars, by outside dollars, by george soros.
00:22:50.221 --> 00:22:53.724
The office of attorney general
00:22:53.724 --> 00:22:55.026
Has an enormous amount of power to open their books,
00:22:55.026 --> 00:22:57.762
And we should open them
00:22:57.762 --> 00:22:59.063
And we should also open
00:22:59.063 --> 00:23:00.198
The books of the groups that are pushing islam,
00:23:00.198 --> 00:23:03.234
Not just care,
00:23:03.234 --> 00:23:04.135
Not just the muslim brotherhood,
00:23:04.135 --> 00:23:05.570
But all of the groups that are trying to islamophobia.
00:23:05.570 --> 00:23:07.472
Texas as attorney general.
00:23:07.472 --> 00:23:09.607
Texas is not going to become an islamic state.
