Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy.
His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

Okay, everybody, we have the Great Borders Arch. Tom, great to see you.
You guys are doing a wonderful job. It has been 18 days so far of the golden era.
Give us some numbers. How many violent illegals have you apprehended? How many have been sent back to their countries of origin? Give us a status report so far of how your operations are going.
Well, you know, on the interior enforcement operations, we're about 12,000 criminal arrests in the interior of the United States.

Vast majority of them being public safety threats.

So we're really making a difference.

We're really making communities safer

across the country.

At the same time we're doing that,

I looked at the border numbers yesterday.

Total border crossings, 446.

446.

I haven't seen that number forever. Remember, it wasn't too long ago, we were dealing with 11,000 a day under Joe Biden, and we're dealing with less than 500.
Look, the border apprehensions, I saw the New York Post say front page, border crossing down 90%. Now, this is something Joe Biden could have done.
We did it in two weeks. He could have done it, but he didn so we're making great progress the ice numbers i'm happy with them but i'm not satisfied with them ice has to do more so i'm putting pressure on them i want more arrests more bad guys uh more fugitives uh we need to increase those teams uh what's going to help us is pan bonnie's going to sue sanctuary cities and i hope that plays out well in court because sanctuary cities are are causing us to to slow our work down because now we got to go to the community and find them with a whole team rather than arrest them in the county jail takes one person to arrest somebody in jail it takes a whole team to find them in the community so once we get some court decision on sanctuary cities those numbers going to explode i i love this i could just see you gavin the ice folks saying these rookie numbers.
Let's get these up. By the way, we have a lot of cleanup to do right now based on the open border that we lived under Joe Biden.
I hope everyone understands this, the profundity of what Tom is saying. In just 18 days, by a couple executive orders, a couple of executive action and an act of the will, not Congress, we went from 11,000 a day to 446 a day.
And look, the president wants that number to be zero. And I think we're going to get closer and closer into the sub-100s, but it's pure willpower.
We want a border. Joe Biden did not want a border.
I want to play cut 187 that piggybacks off of your comment here. Play cut 187, please.
You've cracked down on sanctuary cities. The DOJ has put a pause on all federal funding to sanctuary cities and states.
You filed a lawsuit against Chicago and the state of Illinois for being a sanctuary city. Am I wrong in my interpretation that a sanctuary city is aiding and abetting and lawbreaking? Sean, what they're doing is they are choosing illegal aliens over the safety and security of their own citizens and the men and women of law enforcement who are out there trying to protect their citizens.
Not only did we sue today the city of Chicago, we sued the state of Illinois, we sued the mayor, we sued the governor, and we sued others. And let me be very clear, if you don't comply with federal law, you're going to be next.
So talk about the significance here and the partnership with the Department of Justice and explain why these sanctuary cities are so dangerous. Well, first of all, I think Pam Bani is going to be a rock star.
She's already proven. I've been saying since day one, Charlie, that we're going sue sanctuary cities and we're going to prosecute mayors and governors who uh impede our efforts or that annoyingly harboring stealing alien and pan bonnet's coming in she's she's keeping my promise so that that's that's great sanctuary cities first of all before i go to sanctuary cities one more one more number i want to get you the 446 encounters at the border how many were released zero love that zero either detained or removed so that's that's that's probably the most important number we're not illegally releasing people into the country to end up in the wind and never never be seen again look sanctuary cities i've been fighting them sanctuary cities are sanctuary criminals that what rather than an agent arresting a public safety threat and the safety security of a jail where the alien is safe, the officer is safe, and the community is safe, sanctuary cities release public safety threats back into the public, which is ridiculous on his face.
And so rather than one agent arresting one bad guy, now we've got to send the whole team to go look for this guy in the neighborhood, which, again, puts the neighborhood at greater risk of recidivism,

greater risk for crime.

It puts the agent at extreme risk because it's already a dangerous job.

Now we've got to go arrest a bad guy in his turf.

Well, now he has access to who knows what weapons.

And it puts the alien at risk because anything can happen in a street arrest.

So the alien is not safe either in many circumstances.

So it just doesn't make sense.

But the sanctuary of cities, they play this game.

I heard it the other day.

As sheriffs say,

Thank you. a street arrest so that alien is not safe either in many circumstances so it just doesn't make sense but the sanctuary cities they play this game i heard it the other day a sheriff say well we're a sanctuary city because we want the illegal alien or the the migrant community the migrant community to feel welcome and reassured that as a victim and witness of a crime they can come to us report as a victim witness to a crime without fearing that we're working with That is just a bunch of crap because a victim and witness of a crime, they can come to us, report as a victim witness of a crime without fearing that we're working with ICE.
That is just a bunch of crap because a victim and witness of a crime does not want the bad guy back in the neighborhood either. That's just common sense when they play that game.
And look, we're not looking to talk to the victim witness. We want to talk to the person that you locked in a jail cell because obviously he's a public safety check because you locked them up that's the guy we want to talk to so when you're done with him simply notify us

and let us take custody of him as he walks out of your facility when you're done with him let us

take custody of him and do our job so so tom i want to emphasize one one point here that you're

not releasing these violent criminals back into the interior of the united states so it's kind of

a two-pronged strategy that people that are coming to the border or being trafficked by the cartels, they need to know they're not going to get a cell phone, they're not going to get a hotel, they're not going to get a free trip. Can you talk about how all of the Expedia.com travel booking services of the Biden regime have been completely eliminated? So someone knows now, oh my goodness, I'm not going to be released.
I'm going to have to stay in custody of some sort. It makes it harder, as it should be, to break into our country.
Absolutely. Look, we've sent a clear message.
You cross that border, you're either going to get put in a jail cell or you're going south, but you're not being released. And that's just a stone cold fact.
There's no more free hotel rooms, no more free cell phones, no cash cards are being handed out. You're not getting a check every month.
You're not coming. And that's a great thing to do.
We need to control that border. And like I said, we need to plug that hole.
At the same time we plug that hole, we're bailing water out out every day so we're going to get rid of all the for the millions of people that were released in this country illegally by the way by the administration because federal law clearly states if you enter if you come to our border without proper documentation entering enter illegally the law says you shall be detained shall doesn't say maybe doesn't say well put them in a hotel room at 500 bucks a night and get give them three meals a day and three medical care none of that so um we've sent a message to the whole world and if you're a gang member if you're a public safety threat we're gonna put you a gitmo before we remove you so that we're sending a strong message if you want if you want to be a tda member and look tda is top of my list my list we're not going to be happy i'm not going to be happy to every tda member is removed from this country there's no sanctuary no sanctuary there is there's there's there's there's no there's no sanctuary in this country for public safety threats especially tda we're going to eradicate you from the country so you ought to leave now now before we find you. I want to play cut 188.
You made news regarding the leaks of the ice operations in Aurora, Colorado, where they were doing cover for the worst of the worst, the TDA members. Let's play cut 188.
This is how George Soros and his son, whose money is funding radio stations that are talking about live activities of ice. Play cut 18 george soros and his son whose money is funding a radio station a series of radio stations that's been accused of broadcasting live locations by the way uh in colorado undercover ice agents locations of them meanwhile kcbs radio in san francisco reportedly told listeners on january 26 get.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents are currently carrying out an operation on the east side of town.

The county's response network says agents in San Jose were in unmarked vehicles. Number one, can you update us on the leak of the activities in Colorado that thwarted that particular operation and your comments to any news agency, reporter, nonprofit organization that is aiding illegals from being obtained by ICE? Well, as far as Aurora, I think there's a couple leaks.
We are aware of one and one's being dealt with. The other one's still being under investigation.
But for any federal employee that leaks these operations, I hope it's worth their pension because that's what it's going to cost them. So we're dealing with, we know one now and we're working on another one.
So we're not going to tolerate this. And what really irritation about this, the George Soros thing, I've asked DOJ to look at this, at what point do they cross the line of impeachment? But I tell you one thing they do, that isn't a question put our officers at great risk look tda ms13 these are bad people and they would be honored to kill a nice agent so when you when you when we pour stuff like this i am scared to death that an agent's going agent's going to walk into a place to arrest a bad guy and they're waiting for him and and it's it's got be a bad day for that officer look i have throughout my career 34 years doing this i'm in my 35th i've buried borderline agents i buried ice agents and the toughest part of my job is handing a folded flag to a to a to a wife or a child these men and women put it on the line every day for this country They strap a gun to the hip, wear a Kevlar vest, doing the best thing they can to protect our borders and to protect our communities from violent gangs and national security threats.
And you just increase their risk a hundredfold when you tell the bad guys, we're coming. It's only a matter of time, Charlie.
It's only a matter of time. So that's only a matter of time so that's why we need to quick decisive action against these people it's un-american at best but i think it's criminal and i've asked the oj to look at that and give me give me some guidance what we can do with these groups that are doing this tom i want you to address this directly would you rate a church if you knew that there were bad guys inside we would go in that church and arrest the bad guy.
For instance, if we knew there's a national security threat and he's attending mass right now, and we've been looking for him, we would go in there and arrest the bad guy, walk out, and they can continue their mass. There's no raids of churches.
There's no raids of schools. But if we have to arrest, again, there's no sanctuary.
There's no safe harbor for a significant public safety threat or significant national security threat ice was the only federal law enforcement agency to have these set of rules no one's telling the fbi not to go into a college campus or high school arrest somebody ms 13 members we know they're in our element in our high school it's the opposite tom we had the fbi going into latin masses spying on american citizens they they were actively going into churches not that they weren't allowed they had operations inside of latin mass really quick here tom one minute remaining how much money do you need from congress for ice to be able to do its job what is your budgetary ask we need to set the standard what is it uh the senators are meeting with Trump tonight at Mar-a-Lago. Please explain.
Look, we need $150 billion. And if we can spend the billions of dollars we spent in other places protecting their borders, why not spend that money here on our border? This is the biggest national security vulnerability we ever had with over 2.2 million gotaways.
Give us some money to secure the border. Give us some money to protect our sovereignty.
Give us some money to remove millions of illegal animals out of here, especially the 2.2 million gotaways. Who are they? How come they didn't? How come they paid more to get away? Why didn't they want to get vetted? Why didn't they want to get fingerprinted? This is a national security issue.
It's a public safety issue. Give us the money we need to do the job the American people has mandated President Trump to do, secure the border and save lives.
Give the man his money so he could do the work. Tom, it's amazing how much you've done in 18 days.
Get those numbers up. We need more apprehensions, more arrests, more deportations.
We're here to help you 100%. But the amazing takeaway is that border crossings are down nearly 90% to 95% because of an act of the will.
Those numbers are going to go to sub 100 and none of them are being released into your neighborhoods. Tom, God bless you.
Thank you so much. Thank you, sir.

Go to netsuite.com slash Kirk. We have seen an explosion of the federal deficit and budget in recent years.

We are heading towards a fiscal crisis. Thank you, Joe Biden, and thank you weak Republicans over the last decade.
We are going over a fiscal cliff. The bond market has destroyed more countries than howitzers.
We have seen more countries go belly up because of debts and deficits more so than disease, famine, invasion, or foreign forces. A country buster is inflation and massive deficits.
In 2018, the federal budget when Donald Trump was president was $4.1 trillion. In 2019, spending increased a little bit to $4.4 trillion.
As soon as President Trump left office, the federal budget went from $4.4 trillion to $6.6 trillion. So $4.4 trillion to $6.6 trillion.
In 2021, we spent another $6.8 trillion. In 2022, we spent another $6 trillion.
In 2023, $6.3 trillion. In 2024, $6.6 trillion.
So in 2024, we are back to COVID-19 levels. We are back to where we were in 2020.
So essentially, we had a $2 trillion increase in 2020, a $2.4 trillion increase in 2021, off baseline of 2019 is what I'm saying. We had a $1.5 trillion.
We had a $2.3 trillion. We're talking almost $10 trillion in five years, about actually $11 trillion in five years of an increase off the baseline.
The federal government was already the biggest it ever was in 2019. It was the largest thing ever to exist, a leviathan, a beast, an untouchable monster.
And it wasn't just that we were spending all this money, it's that we were borrowing money as well. In 2020, we borrowed $3.1 trillion.
In 2021, we then borrowed, when Biden was president, $2.8 trillion. In 2022, $1.4 trillion.
2023, $1.4 trillion. 2024, $1.8 trillion.
For those of you keeping score at home, that is 3.2, 4.6. That is almost $9 to $10 trillion of new debt accumulated in five years.
And what exactly is the crisis? Let's slow down. Is there a foreign alien invasion? Are we at war? Are we in the midst of World War III right now? No.
Why is it that we're spending all this money? Because of a bad cold that was called COVID in 2020 and 2021 that did not affect most of the population and didn't affect infants, toddlers, teenagers, people of good health, and people that were not overweight. Our generation got completely hosed with COVID lockdowns and now is being handed this damaged, crippled financial and fiscal situation.
We are in the midst of a fiscal calamity that could break the back of the economic health of the nation. It could de-dollarize America.
It could turn us into a cycle of hyperinflation. President Donald Trump is inheriting this mess.
But thankfully last evening, a major development in reigning in the federal budget was approved. Russ Vogt, who was a friend of this program and came on this program dozens of times, was officially approved as Office of Management Budget Director.
The OMB Director is the air traffic control. He is the offensive coordinator.
He is the central nervous system of the entire federal government and budget. He has full budget control and plays a key role in setting and overseeing the federal budget.
He evaluates all policies within the federal budget. Regulatory oversight.
Reviews proposed regulations ensuring that they align with President Trump's goal. So as President Trump wants to deregulate, baby, deregulate, straight through OMB.
Fiscal discipline from efficiency improvement, influence over agencies, and cost-benefit analysis,

Russ Vogt will finally be able to have an opportunity to reign in the administrative state. But let's understand what we're witnessing right now.
We are witnessing the intentional overspending of a nation. And when you ask any politician on the right or the left, Why is this happening? It's just one simple reason.
They don't have the will to cut spending. It's not as if they're spending money on something so necessary, so existential, that we have to keep on funding all this relief.
It's not as if there was a hurricane happening every day and we have to just keep on rebuilding every portion of the country. No, it's just that they don't want the negative headlines.
And this is where Elon Musk and this Doge team deserve such credit. They're going in, they say, yeah, we're going to go lay people off.
We're going to go after the core backbone as to why we're in this. Nobody in Washington has been willing to say, we don't need you anymore.
They don't need to lay people off. They say, oh, you don't need to work for real.
You could work from home and have some sort of fake job. By the way, they're also getting second and third jobs in the private sector while they're also working for the government.
They're taking classes in college. They're robbing the American taxpayer.
They are fleecing you. And what we are seeing in front of us is this major budget battle.
We have to balance the budget. And this morning, President Donald Trump put on Truth Social, balanced budget, DJT.
And we have to rethink the way that we're actually going to approach the federal budget. It's going to be part external revenue service and entertaining tariffs.
It's going to be spending cuts to all these nonsensical type programs, USAID. And of course, the one that we've been advocating for quite some time here on this program, we are going right after the holy relic of the modern Democrat Party.
This is their national basilica.

By the way, I visited the national shrine of the basilica in Washington, D.C.

It's extraordinary.

What a beautiful church that is.

This is their holy ground.

If you're able to disassemble, deconstruct, shut down this entity, this is baseline. If you have the children, you have the future.
The Democrats have poured hundreds of billions of dollars a year, trillions of dollars cumulatively into this bureaucracy, the Department of Education. They're right now clamoring at the doors at the Department of Education, demanding to be let in.
Here's Maxine Waters losing it, screaming at a Department of Education employee, Playcut 184. Were you told, are you making this decision to stand in front of this door on your own behalf, on behalf of the Department of Education, or were you told to come out here and block members of Congress? I'm doing my job.
So everybody's, what is that? We're doing our job. So do you understand who members of Congress are? I got it, yeah.
And you don't care. Who are we then? I got the job.
You don't care. We have a job to do.
We're not dangerous people. We're not...
I don't know. We're members of security.
There are no thieves and thugs out here. We're not dangerous.
Well, the amount of threats that you guys throw at conservatives, I beg a different interpretation there. By the way, just so we're clear, one article of the government is not allowed to prance into the other branch.
You have to be invited. This is a big deal, by the way, in Congress.
Just so we're clear, anytime the president wants to show up in Congress, he technically has to be invited. What turf you're allowed on is a big deal in Washington, D.C.
That's why the inauguration had so much drama. Who's sitting where and what's this? Well, Congress is like, well, this is our turf and Article 1 and Article 2 are intentional.
And they're technically right. President Donald Trump just can't go show up at the Supreme Court uninvited and go get coffee.
That's Article 3. They're in charge of the third branch of government.
And by the way, we don't care if you're a member of Congress, Maxine Waters. It's not your turf.
This is all staged for cameras, and they're doing this for a reason. Because Elon Musk, President Trump, J.D.
Vance, and our movement, we are going after the Department of Marxism. We're going after the top of the tributary.
We are going after the beginning of the assembly line, where the factory begins, where they go after our kids, pollute them with these ideological contaminants. And we're saying we're going to end it, shut it down, and send it back to the states.
We're in the midst of a fiscal crisis, and department by department will be cut, waste will be found, and hopefully the budget will be balanced. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here with New Year's resolutions.

Secure the border, reign in the federal bureaucracy.

In fact, we need a mass purge of the federal bureaucracy. Top to bottom.
We need to go down and purge what the bureaucrats have been doing. What do you do here? Why are you here? By what purpose do you exist? Top to bottom purge has been occurring in our bureaucracies right now.
And by the way, just so we're clear, the intent of the founders was never to have this fourth branch government as we have articulated in great length. It is either this is the law of the land or something else is.
We appeal to the United States Constitution. We appeal to directly as the founders and the framers articulated and authored it.
Oh, they're losing it. As the Doge lieutenants, the platoon of patriots are starting to go in every department.
They're going to go find hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud and needless government spending. And here is the critical component.
Imagine if Doge existed in the first Trump administration. There would have been two things missing.
Number one, I don't know if there would have been the will to withstand any of the media pressure. I don't know if we were hard enough then.
I don't know if we've been through enough. We were a little soft in that first term.
Let's just be honest. We hadn't had our teeth kicked in enough.
We were getting stronger, but we were rookies. And the swamp, they were experts.
I mean, after January 6th, exile, lawfare, seeing our friends go to jail, Bannon go to jail, Navarro go to jail, Trump facing 700 years in prison, we became a tough, grittier, with a cussetness that allow us to fight through any of the opposition. That's number one.
I'd say three things, actually. Second of which, we did not have a robustly energized, influencer media, decentralized podcasting operation.
You know this program did not even exist in 2017. It came online in

the spring of 2019. Spring of 2019 is when we did our first podcast.
We did not come on radio

till the fall of 2020. And we did not come on Real America's Voice until May of 2022.

You kind of add all that up. You're like, wow, I've only been at this for a couple of years.

June of 2022. So the Mockingbird Media has lost so much power.
And the final part is this, is Elon Musk's capacity and ability to publicize what he is finding on X in real time. It short circuits the entire gatekeeping operation that is the modern racket that is the mainstream media.
Oh, I just found out that we're spending $10 million on transgender dance ceremonies in Nigeria. Boom.
Put it on X. I just found out that they're not allowing us to have access to these certain payment systems.
Boom. Put it on X.
We're able to go directly to the American people in real time. It doesn't require any sort of editor at the New York Times or at Politico or any of these newspapers, any of these papers to review it, go straight to the American people.

And let me go back and repeat those numbers. What if we just went back to 2019 spending levels? In 2019, we had $4.4 trillion budget.
Now it's $6.6 trillion. And if you just go back to 2019 levels.
Just so we're clear, we would have a $600 billion surplus. Let me say that again.
If we went back to 2019 levels, we would have a $600 billion surplus. We would actually have more money coming in than we are spending.
We could pay down the debt. We could do a massive tax refund.
Revenue for the federal budget is going to hit $5 trillion this year. $5 trillion.
Spending is projected to be around $6.6 trillion. We got to rewind down to a new baseline.
And this is the problem in DC. Once a new baseline is established, it is rarely ever reversed.
And it's called baseline budgeting. Baseline budgeting is one of the original fiscal sins in Washington, D.C.
So now they say, well, a cut is just in the rate of growth. So we're not actually going and cutting the fundamental $6 trillion.
We're just going to cut to say that we'll spend $6.7 trillion instead of $6.8 trillion. No, no, we have to go after every single federal program.
Social Security and Medicare are obviously exempt. Those are aside.
We've got to go after every single discretionary program. And of course, the ones they don't want to spend money on is securing the border.
They're happy to spend money on every other pet project around the planet, money to Politico subscriptions. But if you want more ICE agents, they start protesting.
For this matter, baseline budgeting, Washington agencies routinely blow through their money on wasteful garbage just so that they could say, well, we needed every dollar, hike our budget again. It is called use it or lose it.
Spend it before midnight. This is how sick your taxpayer dollars are spent.

A use it or lose it mentality has existed in D.C. the last 50 years.

Here's how it works.

In late December, the Department of Labor, Department of Interior, will say, wow, we have $20 billion left in our budget

that we haven't spent so far this year.

Let's all get new furniture, new trips, bonuses, pensions.

They just spend it, not save it.

If you want to of just use it or lose it, that alone could save you probably a trillion dollars. 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? They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.

Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a big pharma body. Weight loss injections that do just the opposite.
They have harmful side effects and lifelong dependency.

Take a natural approach that isn't connected to a big pharma bottom line.

PHD changes the way you think about food.

They custom design a plan that is simple and works with your schedule.

You'll learn to quiet cravings and finally release the unhealthy belly fat.

President Donald Trump was presented with two options when he entered the presidency for the second time, being the 47th president of the United States. Option one was take it easy, wait it out, sign a couple of performative executive orders, wait for Congress to act, enjoy being president.
You won. Just take it easy.
Option two, shock and awe. They tried to kill you.
They tried to put you in jail. We're only going to get one shot at this, and we are going to operate at a pace that we have never seen.
And I can now say, on February the 7th, 2025, I have not seen we as conservatives, patriots on offense in such a strategic, measured, and sustained way in my entire life. Prove me wrong.
Since 1993 to today, when have we been on offense for such a sustained, precise, measured period of time. In the first Trump administration, by now we already had Michael Flynn entrapped by Peter Strzok smirk.
In the first Trump administration, we already had all these leaks against Trump's calls with Putin. We had Russiagate nonstop on TV.
We had calls for Bob Mueller. Within two weeks of Trump being president, there were articles of impeachment being drafted.
The resistance was in the streets. There was hundreds of thousands of people that were organized against Donald Trump.
This time, it's a little bit of a meow, just a little bit of a yawn. In the first term, all of us were kind of rookies at this, and D.C.
was waiting to ambush us at every turn. But those four years in exile, President Donald Trump is operating at a pace that they cannot keep up.
We have to stay on offense. We have to work harder.
We have to do more. That's exactly why we're doing our campus tour in a couple weeks.
Full culture offense. More podcasting, more interviewing, more high school chapters, more college chapters.
The left, they're out in the wilderness. We're not going to give them a chance to reorganize.
Crush them. Oh, they start complaining? Executive order.
Oh, I don't like that. Department of Education gone.
Oh, you can't do that. Pardons.
Oh, I really think that Trump is out of control and all that. Drill, no tax on tips, largest bill ever, no tax on Social Security.
They're in a position with no directional awareness whatsoever. They have no atmospherics of where to go next, and they have no leader.
This is Rachel Maddow doing her best with Hakeem Jeffries, saying, well, the energy is palpable. Look, I could tell right now the energy is 90% less against Donald Trump on the left.
He has outlasted them. He is a stamina fighter.
He has gone 15 rounds. He's done the little rope-a-dope.
They don't know how to fight him anymore. Their base is divided.
Their typical coalitions of black Hispanics, young men, college students are no longer with them. We have a chance to make this permanent.
Play cut 110. Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic leader in the House, I was interested.
He put out last night, I think it was last night, it might have been yesterday afternoon, a 10-point plan for all Democratic members of the House to go to your home constituents, to hold town hall meetings. And we will be surveying every Democratic member of the House to see whether or not they do this.
The energy palpably seems like it is there, Ezra, if members of Congress and senators are going to essentially follow their leadership's advice, hold these kind of events and hear from the people who voted them into office. By the way, if you're going to go do these town hall meetings, you'll be met with a turning point action patriot with a camera saying, why'd you vote against men and female sports? Why don't you want a border? You guys want to all of a sudden go out in the streets and act as if you have the talent to face your voters? I don't think so.
Why'd you vote against the Lake and Riley Act? Why won't you give ICE the funding that they need? You all of a sudden want to go act as if you guys can face your voters because you guys have been hiding for the last five or six years? Explain to us why you think that gender transition therapy, otherwise known as chemical castration, should be legal. Why are you defending USAID paying for all these different things? I want every patriot in the audience, look carefully at the local Democrat that might be doing a town hall near you and go play offense.
It's okay if you're not a talented order. They're your congressman.
Go make a viral video. Go up there and start listing off the USAID stuff and say, why do you support this? Why do you support this? And see what happens.
See the response that you get. They want to flood the zone and go talk to their constituents.
Let's meet them as a bulwark, a movement, and say, okay, we're going to go talk to you. Finally, I can go talk to Jan Schakowsky.
Finally, I can go talk to Maxine Waters. Make them regret ever trying to communicate to their voters because they don't do that because they're not representative of their voters.
We must play offense. We must do more.
We must push harder. We must take bigger risks.

We are on offense for the first time in my life in this sustained way.
