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, 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. Here we go.

Hello, everybody. Great to see you. Actually, I can't see you yet. It's great to be here. I love Idaho, and I've wanted to come to Sun Valley for quite some time. And it's great to be here. And largely because I always watch it from the news, because I think the downfall of Western civilization is planned down the street. No, I'm half kidding.

You got a lot of characters that visit here every so often, but went on a great hike today. Thank you, those of you that went to the radio program earlier. It was a lot of fun and super warmly received. I want to spend the most time on your questions and also the fireside chat. But there's one thing I want to make sure I emphasize here tonight. There's just one thing that you remember from my message. It's the following. It's that the people who are destroying the country, they are not making a series of mistakes. They're doing so intentionally. And I said this previously at lunch. And this is the what we call the great divide right now between how you analyze what's happening in the country. If you are to believe that the current ruling class or regime are making a bunch of mistakes, then you have to tell me that keeping a border completely wide open and spending trillions of dollars that we do not have, sending billions of dollars overseas unnecessarily, the destruction of the American dollar, allowing men and female sports, so on and so forth, reversing Title IX, that this is just a bunch of people that don't know what they're doing. And they know exactly what they're doing. And I think it's important for us to go back into a period of time. And I understand why people are reluctant to talk the way I talk about this, because you have to then acknowledge and admit that you are now a stranger in your own country. And that is not a really comforting thing to hear, that the people that are in charge don't share the core American values or principles. Let me be clear, I travel the country, I go to college campuses, the American people still share the American core values and principles, but the people in charge do not. So in the 1970s, 1980s, there was a paper that was written, everyone should know about it, it's called the Cloward-Piven Strategy. It was two political scientists, and they were communists, outward Marxists and communists, and they wanted to destroy America. They wanted to turn it into something different. They hated free market capitalism, they did not like private property rights, and they said the way that America will be destroyed, and this is called the Cloward-Piven Strategy, will be three things. Step one, have America borrow so much money and spend so much money that the American dollar is totally worthless. That the dollar means nothing, and we engage in unprecedented inflation. Step two, build a deep state bureaucracy or an administrative state that swallows the private sector, and the power and the influence in society is not found in entrepreneurs or risk takers, but instead it's found in experts, as Scott Rasmussen said earlier, a council of an expert class that will rule over the American people. Step three, open up the borders and invite the third world and overwhelm schools, overwhelm the hospitals, overwhelm your public infrastructure, and confuse citizen from foreigner, because then citizen means nothing. They wrote in great detail exactly what we are living through right now. And you can look at it like a child. People all the time say, Charlie, there's no way that our people in charge, how could they be this sinister? And I'm actually uniquely qualified to answer that question, because I visit college campuses so you don't have to. And since I visit college campuses so you don't have to, I see what is coming next. And so I'm able to go to events like this, and I've been doing this for the last 12 years, and warn people, hey, there's some really radical stuff coming, and you should probably be worried about what's happening on these university campuses. We'll talk about this, I'm sure, in the fireside chat.
