Charlie Kirk (0:03)
My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro-American student organization in the country, fighting for the future of our republic.
My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a Turning Point USA college chapter. Go start a Turning Point USA high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade. Most important decision I ever made in my life, and I encourage you to do the same. Here I am. Lord, use me.
Buckle up, everybody.

Voting is happening in almost every state across the country, and it's about to happen in many more. We're going to recap Donald Trump's triumphant weekend, an unusual weekend, mind you. He visited Colorado, California.
Why would Donald Trump, right before an election, go to Colorado, of all places? Well, Donald Trump, this last weekend, visited Colorado to launch Project Aurora, but it was brilliant. Donald Trump decided to go to a state that is currently being occupied by foreign gangs. Now, one of the lesser reported elements of the 2024 election is not just immigration, but how foreign gangs are occupying our own territory, how foreign gangs have come into our country and they are controlling our apartments, our condominiums, that they are taking over our neighborhoods, that they are dramatically increasing crime. You see, gangs from these other countries know that it is open season here in this country, and that does not even count the influx of legal immigration from Charlois to Springfield.
The example of Aurora, Colorado is remarkable. Donald Trump did a rally in Aurora, Colorado, which was one of his greatest speeches that I have seen in quite some time. There was no gray area. There was no wobbling. There was no wishy washy. It was direct. It was crisp. Donald Trump said very clearly in Aurora, Colorado, we will deport you if you commit a crime. We will deport you if you are here. We're going to find you, and you will leave this country. Donald Trump did this entire Western tour as basically a major immigration issue, tour from Aurora to Coachella to Prescott Valley yesterday.
You see, Donald Trump going to Aurora, Colorado, and I'm trying to find some of the tape here of his rally, announced the largest deportation effort in American history, but it was even more than that. He announced Project Aurora, and Project Aurora is very simple, that we will not allow our country to be occupied by foreign forces, that we will not allow gangs like Tren de Arroga, or Arroga, whatever, Arroga, to take over our country. Now, this is from a different rally, but this is from the Prescott one, Playcut 24
SPEAKER_3 (4:07)
This November, we have a choice to make. Continue the chaos. Allow the criminal cartels to control the border, to allow drugs and fentanyl across our country, or put an end to it once and for all.
On behalf of the 16,000 men and women represented by the National Border Patrol Council, we strongly support and endorse Donald J.
Charlie Kirk (4:51)
That is the National Border Patrol Council, which represents thousands of border agents that just endorsed Donald Trump.
Gangs are in your neighborhood, whether you know it or not.
JD. Vance has been a hero this election cycle. Every day, he rides into combat against the media. Every day, he answers more questions and gives more substance to the Trump agenda than Kamala and Tim Walz have done their entire campaign combined. What's great is that Vance, simply by interviewing and debating as much as he does, forces the regime to lay out real stakes of this race, forces them to expose exactly what is the agenda of the media and the Democrat Party. One of the best examples of this on Sunday is when Vance had a viral showdown with Martha Raditz. Vance brought up the migrant gangs and how they've hijacked entire apartment complexes in Aurora. Raditz's reply, well, what's the big deal? It's only a few apartment complexes. And this is Michael Anton's chef kiss. Michael Anton, who's a professor at Hillsdale College, one of the smartest people out there. We should have Michael Anton on the show more. He's just terrific. And Michael Anton famously wrote a couple summers ago in a piece for The American Mind, the way that the media operates and it's perfect. You should frame it. It's not happening, but it's good that it is.
