Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here, live from the Bitcoin.com studio.
What is the chain of command?
Oh, this is a shocking story out of Washington, D.C., where the person who's in charge of chain of command in D.C.
doesn't know what chain of command is.
You cannot make this up.
Senator Michael Lee joins us, and we recap my appearance on CNBC.
Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and subscribe to our podcast.
Buckle up, everybody.
Here we go.
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.
That's why we are here.
I've had quite an eventful morning.
It is 12 p.m.
Eastern Standard Time, and I was up quite early.
So yesterday we were in Washington, D.C.
I was able to stop by the White House and see the president, which was amazing.
He's at the Kennedy Center right now in phenomenal spirits, and he was just in a great spot.
He's like, you know, we're building the ballroom.
They're redoing the Rose Garden.
He is in his element.
And then
just shuffled on up to New York City.
Got a couple hours of sleep.
And I was up early at, I think, like 5:15
to go join Squawkbox.
I've known about the show for a while.
Just so you understand, Squawkbox might not be
a program that a lot of you in this audience watch.
But it is, and this was confirmed based on a lot of the messages I got, it certainly is a drumbeat of a lot of the C-suite.
You could call it the ruling class.
I don't even mean that pejoratively.
It certainly sets the tone for the markets and the economic mood of the day.
It is a mood center for markets.
And based on the incoming I was getting,
a lot of people that are controlling serious capital allocations watch the program.
So we had an opportunity to go on Squawkbox and they treated me great.
It was really amazing.
I got to give CNBC credit.
They showed up, obviously did makeup, and they said, here, just go right on the set.
There was no kind of like producer that says, you can't say this, can't say that.
It was straight, unfiltered, free speech.
Boom.
I thought it was going to be like a three minute segment or a five minute segment it was a 17 minute segment and went on and talked about everything we talked about economics we talked about worldview we talked about trade we talked about one big beautiful bill and most importantly we talked about the ruling class let's play cut 365 and it was with one of the guys andrew sorkin who I actually had a chance to meet a couple months ago.
And we're on different planets on certain issues, but he's fun and
I think was actually a really good host.
And he asked challenging questions.
I actually love the challenging questions because it provokes you and challenges you toward a better conclusion.
And what was really important about this is that CNBC is certainly,
I don't want to say CNBC, but part of the opinions that are expressed on that program, again, great experience, is more in that ruling class, technocratic elite.
We come from the workers class, populist class.
I didn't go to college.
We represent the muscular class.
What I love, I mean, this was probably one of the most poetic moments there at CNBC, you know, shake the hands.
And Joe Kernan was a total stud.
He was awesome to work with, and he was just great.
And you know who wants the selfies?
All the camera operators.
It was just like this amazing contrast.
It was the guys behind the scenes that make it all happen.
And understand the people that watch this program, it's just, it's CEOs, analysts that control trillions of dollars.
So kind of going into that boxing UFC octagon and holding down the populist nationalist vibe is not something they're used to.
Play cut 365.
To the extent that you're like
a mind reader of the president.
A mind reader.
How should the business community think about what he says
versus what he's going to do?
This is not complicated.
He wants what's best for America.
It's not ideological.
And he wants what's best both for capital and labor.
And he wants the market to succeed.
He wants wages to go up.
Tariffs have largely been used as two things, national security components or as revenue generators.
He has now created a third category, which is we're going to use it as a negotiation tactic.
And he has the whole world spinning and they're coming to the Oval Office wanting to get a deal done, wanting to come into the U.S.
markets.
Remember in April, when Trump first announced Liberation Day, Mark Zandi, the chief economist at Moody's Analytics, predicted we would have an immediate reception extending into 2026.
Donald Rissmiller, chief economist at Strategist, said that there was a 45% chance of recession by year end.
So how did it turn out?
Turns out that once again, as we've seen many times with President Trump, there was a lot of panic followed by nothing.
By May, the market was back where it was before the tariff panic, and now the SP is at record highs.
And understand this, that President Donald Trump has used tariffs as a negotiating tool, a negotiating tactic to bring people in and to broker better deals for the United States of America as leverage.
And all of the experts, they seem to be so lost on this.
They lose the forest from the trees and they focus on the minute details.
And that is why I said we need to rework
the ruling class.
If you want to understand President Trump, you have to update your mental model on Trump for 2025.
It's not 2018 anymore.
No, these excuses.
Oh, I don't know what Trump's doing.
You know exactly what he's doing.
Donald Trump is primarily doing one thing.
He is restoring the United States of America for hemispheric hegemony, making us the geopolitical center of the planet.
He wants capital to flow in.
He wants goods that we make to go out.
He wants the border secure, and he wants a strong nation he can hand down.
The one thing the expert class has proven they're experts on is being wrong about Donald Trump.
Play cut 366.
Look, the question from an economic perspective on tariffs is you may collect the tariff on one end, and the question is what happens to the real economy on the other end.
And so far we have not seen, and so far we haven't seen anything.
It was a major like catastrophic prediction, right?
The Panikins, the whole world's going to fall apart.
And we just haven't seen that.
And I think there does need to be a little contrition by the economic ruling class.
Like, hey, back when we were saying this was going to be the worst thing for the global markets ever, it turns out what it has done is it recentered America as the center point of the world economy.
Did we ever get an apology?
And why are those people still being taken seriously on television?
Why are we still taking seriously all the prognostications, the predictions, and the calculations of the very same economic elite that got all of this wrong?
Similar to COVID, similar to Ukraine.
And in fact, I mentioned COVID later in it.
That was probably my favorite moment where I go, boom, boom, boom, boom, of all the things that this technocratic class has gotten wrong.
Let's go to,
I don't know if 385 is the best one.
Let's play 385, though.
Anybody that is even a quasi-supporter of President Trump, and maybe I'd put myself in that category, There are plenty of times where you're uncomfortable trying to defend some of the things that are...
Have you ever felt uncomfortable with anything?
I'm uncomfortable defending some of the things I've said a couple years ago.
But look, I just look at results and I look at this is a guy that goes to work every single day and produces wins for the American people.
And look, real wages are up this year for working people, $1,100.
We just saw the report that we're starting to see crude go down a little bit, and we need that definitely to have energy prices go down.
Capital expenditures are going up, which is a leading prerequisite for economic growth.
And I get all the objections.
I just want to say one final thing, though, is that I think that we need to rework our mental model when it comes to Donald Trump, especially in people that are running companies, because they're looking too much on the flow on acts, and they're not looking at the macroeconomic, geopolitical victory that President Trump is driving every single day, which is recentering America as the forefront leader of the world.
President Donald Trump has been underestimated by the managerial class, the power elite, the dominant class, the entire
saga.
And honestly, it felt kind of good to be able to go on CNBC and tell that story.
And credit to them, credit to Andrew Sorkin and to Joe for allowing me to say that
on a big program.
That wasn't some sort of like 11 p.m.
thing.
That is prime time.
Joe's a great guy, by the way.
Phenomenal.
Straight shooter.
Really good.
And they want to have me back.
They both said, hey, come back anytime.
So they want to have me back next time I'm in New York.
And I think that we as MAGA populists, and there was another part of this, I think we'll play it after the break.
I said, look, you're going to get Maggioni or Mamdani, or you can get MAGA.
It's the three M's.
They have Mangioni-Mamdaniism.
If you are in charge of a company, you're an entrepreneur.
You don't want that.
But MAGA, we're going to come to a new settlement between capital and labor.
And it's going to be good for everyone.
It's going to be victories.
It's not just going to be a corporate oligarchy that's going to run the country.
That is not the economic model.
That is a disordered economy that is bad for working people and bad for young people.
But it will be, at its core capitalistic.
It will be market-driven.
It will be private property adhering.
It will be risk-taking.
It will be value-creating.
It will be about wealth creation.
It will not be confiscation, wealth tax nonsense.
Instead, there will be a reordering and a recentering that we might have to stomach some otherwise third rails of American politics.
Do you ever want to turn off the news and just ignore politics?
That's understandable.
It's overwhelming.
But here's the thing.
We're citizens of a republic.
The decisions made by our government affect our everyday lives, meaning each of us ought to read and understand the United States Constitution.
That's why I'm so excited that Hillsdale College is offering a brand new, free online course called The Federalist.
The Federalist papers are written primarily by Alexander Hamilton and James Madison.
Together, they explain how the United States Constitution established a government strong enough to secure the rights of citizens and safe enough to wield that power.
Now it's our responsibility to be vigilant in order to preserve and protect Republican self-government.
Hillsdale's online course on the Federalist includes 10 lectures, each about 30 minutes long.
You can take the course at your own pace.
There's no cost to sign up.

There's no cost and it's easy to get started.
That's C-H-A-R-L-I-E for Hillsdale.com.
Charlieforhillsdale.com.
America's greatest college, CharlieForhillsdale.com.
Look, you've got two options.
You can go MAGA or Maggioniism.
You can go MAGA or you can go Momdaniism.
You can go MAGA or you can go Mohammedism.
It's very funny how all the M's, MAGA is the only option on the right.
Neoconservatives are not coming back.
The corporate oligarchs were not going to let happen.
So MAGA has cemented the worldview of the American right.
But the left, we don't know.
It could go Maggioni, which is the most extreme.
You could go Momdani, which is very, very extreme.
Or you can go
Mohammedism, which is just
Muslim Islamic takeover.
Mom Domininix.
Jack Pesobic said that.
I don't know how you pronounce that.
He sent that to me like three times.
Mom Dani Amex.
That doesn't really roll off the tongue.
I don't know, Jack.
I'm going to have to talk about that one on thought crime.
Mom Dani Namex.
Mom Dani Namex, I don't know.
He's going to have to win me over on that one.
Jack says, shaking my head, you're the greatest, Jack Pesobic.
Mom Dani Namex.
How's that?
You get reform or you get revolution.
We at MAGA want to reform stuff.
Again, this is my one piece of feedback for conservatives, guys.
We have to be less ideological on economic stuff.
If it means we have to raise taxes on the rich at some point, then that means we might have to do that.
All of those are going to be moderate, prudent, and very slight changes versus a radical restructuring that we do not want.
You do not want that.
Play cut 388.
My worry about populism is, and this is true on both sides of the populist situation, that effectively voters get lied to.
They get lied to about what the politicians can actually do for them.
That's what populism actually is.
But the technocrats have been lying to us.
It's not like this idea that populists are going to lie.
President Trump's the one that's actually kept his promises.
He said he's going to secure the border, and he did.
He said he was going to appoint the people the Supreme Court did.
But I would just say, beyond Magdaniism, the thing I want to caution your audience is you're going to get Maggioneism.
You're going to get one-off violent targeting of people with money if we do not rebuild the American middle class.
I think President Trump is doing that.
The numbers show that.
Oh, you got to let it, you got to let it flow.
I'd be cutting off.
Let me tell you why that's important.
You know who is watching that?
CEOs of all the biggest companies around the country.
And they know about the Mangioni thing.
In the back of their head, they're like, boy, am I next?
It's a dark, dark thing, everybody.
I don't want to let that country, you don't want to let that country.
Political undercurrent underneath Maggione that cannot be ignored, that should not be dismissed.
And that political reality is that is on the American left.
Here we are, and we're talking about changing trade policy, maybe some tax adjustments.
We need to put labor back into the equation.
And again,
we're not saying that labor should be the only factor, but the balance between capital and labor is what Teddy Roosevelt was able to do to transition us from the farms to the factories.
The balance between capital and labor is what Dwight D.
Eisenhower did post-World War II with higher tax rates.
You cannot be ideological about this because that's why I started.
Donald Trump wants America to win.
That is our guiding principle.
We want wages to go up.
We want home purchase to go up.
We want church attendance to go up.
We want fertility rates to go up.
We want border crossings to go to zero.
We want deportations to go up.
We want more people to treat their fellow countrymen as neighbors and not strangers.
We don't want men and female sports.
This is not ideological stuff.
And it gets portrayed by some people in the media as being ideological.
If your primary guiding principle is American victory, American victory over all,
then all of a sudden you can proceed and you can navigate from there.
You can then move forward.
Okay, then that's how we're going to treat things economically.
Let me play another piece of tape here, my appearance on
squawkbox, play cup 387.
I have seen, see, he's 31, so he hasn't been around to see a lot of these things.
I can show you five former republican presidents each one in the media has the little hitler stash i can show you it on the current guy i can show it to you on w i can show it to you on reagan this has been the way it's been for years you know this do you realize i mean look i i grew up i was like 10 years old during the the worst of the bush stuff but Yes, I mean,
I think you would agree.
It's gone to a fever pitch that we have not seen.
With Trump, but people that are you're right think, oh, oh my my God, this guy's the worst ever.
And finally, but I saw the same stuff with W.
Let me ask you.
And with Ray.
Let me ask you a different question.
And with the WIMP.
It's one of Joe's insertions there.
You can listen to the entire thing.
We're going to post an annotated version on our YouTube channel.
Email us freedom at charliekirk.com.
Jack says, Momdaninomics is gold.
Okay, it's growing on me now that I know how to phonetically say it.
Momdaninomics.
Say that.
I'm still not quite there.
But it is the M's.
You have MAGA, which is reform, or you have three-pronged revolution.
You can go Marxism, you can go Mohammedism, you can go Mamdaniism, or you go Maggionism.
Hey, that's four M's.
It all works.
And MAGA is about American victory.
I used to think I knew what I was getting at the grocery store until I found out that over 4 billion pounds of meat were imported into the United States just last year, and it can still be labeled like it's from here.
And that had me questioning everything: like, what am I even eating?
And if the labels can say product of the USA when the meat's not even raised here, what other labels are tricking me?
That's when I started looking for something I could trust, and I found good ranchers.
All their meat is 100% American, raised on local farms and delivered right to my door.

Welcome to the table.
Joining us now is Senator Mike Lee.
Lots to talk about.
This is from the great state of Utah.
Senator Lee, thank you so much for taking the time.
Senator, before we talk about Maryland and Washington, D.C., what is your comment on the contrast between a MAGA movement and a Maggioni Mom
movement, the choice.
It is a time for choosing in the philosophical sense that will, of course, then materialize politically.
Senator Mike Lee.
Yeah, look, MAGA is the natural outgrowth of the American dream.
It's the natural outgrowth of the English common law as its seeds were planted in the fabric of the United States at a very early stage.
MAGA ultimately is about allowing the American people to realize who they are, to achieve what they want to achieve in this lifetime without undue interference for government.
That's why it's lasting, just as the American Republic has been.
And that's why it's going to work, just as the United States of America has become the greatest civilization the world has ever known.
And it is that way because we've got a constitution that recognizes that people have certain things that are inalienable,
inalienably theirs, that cannot, must not ever be taken away by government.
So
the promise of MAGA MAGA is the promise of the Constitution and the American dream.
And that is one that transcends racial demographics, that transcends any sort of
generational demographics.
It's one that is critically important.
Senator Lee, you've been making some headlines here, and I love this.
So the Democrats are pushing, pushing, pushing for statehood, but you have a way to kind of work around it, which is why don't we just give Washington, D.C.
to Maryland?
It's a brilliant idea.
So smart, because it takes this off the table completely.
And then, of course, the national parks could still be controlled no different than Acadia National Park or Yellowstone National Park or Grand Teton by the National Park Service and the Department of the Interior.
So there would still be federal government control over the U.S.
over the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial, over the White House.
But the city itself would then enter Maryland, hence then cutting off all the objections that they're taxed without representation.
Senator Mike Lee, please walk us through this in great detail.
Yeah, okay.
So first of all, remember that the District of Columbia was created for the specific purpose of making sure that our nation's capital wasn't set in a place where it would be subject to one state's or one locality's viewpoints, where it could truly be a national capital where the national interests would govern and where the seat of government
wouldn't be subject to whatever whim the host state happened to have at that moment.
So now that we've evolved a couple,
you know, nearly 250 years down the road, and we've got a group of people who now want to make Washington, D.C.
a state.
And I say, first of all, you do want a federal corridor, no matter what, I would think,
so that you can protect the U.S.
Capitol, the White House, the Supreme Court, the critical government buildings.
many of which fit within a fairly narrow corridor of Washington, D.C.
But most of the residential parts of it could go back to Maryland, just as the residential areas in what was previously the District of Columbia, the part that was given by the state of Virginia, was retroceded back to the state of Virginia in the 1840s.
So if the people in the residential areas of Washington, D.C., if what they really want is congressional representation,
if they really want the ability to vote for U.S.
senators, let those residential areas go back to Maryland.
We could maintain a narrow corridor in DC for the buildings that I mentioned.
It would be important, Charlie, if we were to take that approach.
We would, as a practical matter, need to undo the 23rd Amendment, which sets aside three electoral votes for DC.
You wouldn't want those three electoral votes being cast by what could be just a few hundred people in that narrow corridor.
But this would work, and it doesn't require us to make DC a state.
DC, remember, doesn't have any of the diverse array of
economic and cultural resources that we have traditionally required of a territory before bringing it in as a state.
And it was never put in federal hands with the expectation that it would become a state on its own.
So we've got to decide one way or another.
If we're going to keep DC as is, D.C.
needs to be governed under laws passed by Congress, because Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17 of the Constitution makes this a federal thing.
It specifically says that Congress will have exclusive legislative jurisdiction over what we now call the District of Columbia.
If we want to go that route, it does need to be re-federalized.
If they want votes in the United States Senate, they should do so through Maryland, through retrocession.
We've got to pick one of those two because statehood, that's not happening.
Yeah, statehood is not going to happen.
So what is the process?
Remind us again, Senator.
Is there a vote?
Does Congress do it?
And the Democrats' inability to then absorb this the state of the the dc would show their fraud and interestingly if we retrocede it what would happen to dc's electoral votes right now they get three electoral votes i believe
yeah that's right three i'm just talking from them that's right three electoral
elections so what would happen there yeah that's why i'm saying if we went this route the route of maryland retrocession it would be imperative as a practical matter that we simultaneously repeal the 23rd Amendment because it would make no sense to give three electoral votes to a narrow corridor in which there might only be a few dozen or a few hundred people living at the time.
That was created as a compromise to figure out what to do with DC to allow DC's residents to vote in presidential elections.
That doesn't make DC a state, and that's why we would need to undo the 23rd Amendment if we went with retrocession.
Unless, of course, in theory, you could retroceed retroceed the entire thing such that there is no more District of Columbia.
If you did that, then I suppose you wouldn't have to get rid of the 23rd Amendment because there'd be nothing there to provide those electoral votes.
Yeah.
And so what would the process of that be?
I mean, that's a big reach.
And so, again,
I suppose then would the narrow part only with the monuments be the population?
What would the process of getting rid of constitutional amendment be?
It'd have to be a big vote of Congress.
Democrats, I don't think, are going to willingly get rid of electoral votes for themselves.
We're not doing this for electoral votes, actually.
We're simply trying to meet them off at the pass of their scam to try to make Washington, D.C.
a state.
Senator Michael.
No, that's exactly right.
No, here's what the process looks like.
If you want to amend the Constitution to get rid of the 23rd Amendment, it would take a two-thirds supermajority vote in both houses of Congress to propose the amendment absent the Constitutional Convention, which is a different process.
And then any amendments proposed that way have to be ratified by three-fourths of the states.
You can alternatively propose them by state legislatures calling for Congress to convene a convention for that purpose.
Congress then convenes the convention, the convention proposes amendments, those amendments become effective only after being ratified by three-fourths of the states.
By contrast, the part about retroceding
that can be done statutorily, doesn't require a constitutional amendment in and of itself.
And because it would be changing the boundaries of an existing state, the Constitution would also require the consent of the Maryland state legislature in order to do that.
These things
would work and they would give people those votes.
And I think it's something that we ought to consider.
But in the meantime, I also think it's important for us to focus on the here and now on what the the law is and what it says right now.
Since 1973, Congress has abdicated its authority, its responsibility, its duty, I believe, under Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17,
by enacting in 1973 something called the D.C.
Home Rule Act.
And that act has delegated Congress's power over D.C.
to the D.C.
city government, to the mayor and city council.
The problem with that is they have not handled it well.
They have allowed lawlessness to prevail to the point where we've got this massive crime wave that's been sweeping through our nation's capital for many years now.
It's not safe.
And as we've seen before, as we've seen this week, as we saw certainly in 2020,
when we had to have National Guard troops brought in in the George Floyd summertime riots of 2020,
D.C.
Mayor Muriel Bowser evicted them from D.C.
She didn't want them there.
What that shows, Charlie, is that the people of D.C.
apparently have very different priorities for our nation's capital than the country as a whole.
Now, that's fine.
I don't expect the entire country necessarily to agree with the governing strategy of any city in Utah, but D.C.
is different than any other city.
D.C.
is made specifically subject to Congress's exclusive legislative jurisdiction.
It is anathema to that concept.
It is repugnant to the constitutional text and structure to take a non-delegable duty, to make exclusive law, to make the law as the exclusive lawmaking body over a certain area and delegate that out to someone else.
Going all the way back to the writings of Montesquieu, we know this is a duty that cannot be delegated.
And we made a huge mistake by delegating it.
That's right.
Exactly.
Spirit of the Laws by the French judge Montesquieu, who actually informed the worldview of the founding fathers even more than John Locke, some would argue.
Senator Lee, thank you for your leadership on this.
You and I can geek out about Montesquieu-Burke Locke sometimes, and the beauty of the natural law, something I've been spending my summer studying.
And once you understand the natural law, the laws of nature and nature is God and that it's self-evident, you start to realize
the entire structure of the U.S.
government, which in itself I believe is scriptural and biblical.
Senator Lee, wonderful job.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Chiller.

So in Washington, D.C., the chief, the police chief is a black woman by the name of Pamela Smith.
She joined the Metropolitan Police Department, D.C., in May of 2022 as the chief equity officer during all the DEI craze.
She was assigned to the executive office of chief of police and she led the department effort on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
She literally was the DEI chief.
She developed an organizational channel for department-wide accountability by providing strategic advice for the MPD.
She is the DEI chief to the police chief.
And oh, you wait.
Here she is on camera, play cut 358.
That's what the chain of command is now.
What does that mean?
Well, is it Cam Bondi speaking to the mayor?
She's not a new or how does this work?
So the executive order is clear.
The president has requested MPD services and our home rule charter outlines the process.
Did you see that?
She had, what does that mean?
She is the chief of police, the number one cop in Washington, D.C.
And I know people are going to attack me relentlessly, but it needs to be said.
This is DEI on display.
This woman is a moron and people are dying in Washington, D.C.
And she does not know what a chain of command is.
But let's kind of go through the greatest hits.
You have a Supreme Court justice who's a DEI pick, a black woman.
who doesn't know what a woman is.
She says, I don't know what a woman is.
You have a police chief in Washington, Washington, D.C., who's a black woman who doesn't know what a chain of command is.
You have a fire chief in Austin, Texas, who is a DEI pick, who's only there because of an Obama investigation to the DOJ, who doesn't know what a reimbursement is.
Do you see a little bit of a pattern here that when you put people in positions, again, this is not like an anti-black thing.
Everyone writes it up.
Charlie goes on racist, enough.
This is the death of meritocracy on full display.
You want, and to put this even further, this is why black death is increasing in Washington, D.C.
You don't know what chain of command is?
Well, do you know what a dead black kid is?
Do you know what that is?
She's like, dead pan eyes.
What's the chain of command?
And then her answer, I want to play this again.
It's kind of that, like, what do you mean?
Kind of like that attitude, like, I'm smarter than you.
Or
what do you mean, racist?
Listen carefully.
In slow motion, let's watch the replay here.
Play cut 358.
This is the number one cop in Washington, D.C.
It's a legitimate legitimate question.
Just so we are clear, DEI incompetence led to dead black kids.
This is more than a legitimate question.
What is that?
DEI, let me be clear so Media Matters can write this crisply.
So the other stenographers of the show that work for The Independent and work for all of those rags that nobody reads can get my words perfectly.
The Charlie Kirk show stenographers need to get this.
DEI is contributing to black death in Washington, D.C.
and major cities across the country.
It's not the only reason, but DEI is indisputably making it worse.
Watch again of the head cop in Washington, D.C., not know what a chain of command is.
Play cut 358.
What the chain of command is now?
What does that mean?
Well, is it Pam Bondi speakers of the mayor's NBU, or how does this work?
So the executive order is clear.
The president has requested MPD services, and our home rule charter outlines the process.
And Muriel Bowser to the rescue.
She has to go
get her out of the way.
When you hire people based on diversity quotas and explicit or implicit
DEI, you get incompetence, corruption, and lower standards.
So you got Katanji Brown Jackson, who is inarguably...
like the worst of the nine of people in the Supreme Court.
People are laughing at her.
They look at her legal briefs.
They're like, this stuff is a joke.
Michelle Obama only got into Princeton because of affirmative action in DEI.
Christopher Hitchens famously said that her senior thesis or equivalent at Princeton University was like, barely,
like, you can't even understand it.
So, all that to say, again, people died in Texas because of DEI.
He didn't understand
reimbursements.
And here she is again: play cut 391.
I'm just a branch off of an old tree.
And I'm just that branch that's still standing.
And as the leaves fall off,
that's all I am.
I'm just a tree.
And you know what I like about being a tree?
I'm glad God has chosen to use this tree.
I don't even know what that means.
Is that the full Kamala coconut tree?
She's like the embodiment of the Kamala coconut tree.
We can make fun of it.
The reason I'm being righteously indignant, though, is that our nation's capital is dirty, it is dangerous, and it is murderous.
And the number one cop does not know what chain of command is.
That's like asking a surgeon what a scalpel is.
She's in the chain of command business.
DEI kills.
You see it on full display in DC.
