**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. Here we go.

**Alexander Marlow** (1:17)
Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard to this week's edition of Thoughtcrime.
We've got an incredible list of topics for you. We've got an incredible amount of thought crimes because as we see, the thought crime piles up day to day, week to week, year to year, most of which, of course, contributed by us. And I love to see that we have the Fab Four here today. The Fab Four are here. We've got Andrew. What's up, Andrew?

**Andrew Colvett** (1:50)
Oh, I'm just wondering if we're going to go viral again. I'm wondering. I'm wondering.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:55)
It seems like almost every show we say something.

**Alexander Marlow** (1:59)
We were kind of off last week. We didn't quite hit the level because we were early with the Lindsay Clancy thing. That's what it was. We were a little bit early.

**Andrew Colvett** (2:07)
So the women didn't get to attack us in the comments about that.

**SPEAKER_5** (2:10)
So they were already realized.

**Alexander Marlow** (2:12)
Yeah. The hive mind was already popping off. Yeah.

**Blake** (2:14)
They just they hadn't quite realized that they needed the constitutional right to strangle their kids if they were annoying.

**Forrest Frank** (2:22)
Oh, we didn't know that that was part of the Constitution.

**Alexander Marlow** (2:26)
By the way, Tyler's not wearing a hat.

**Andrew Colvett** (2:28)
This is a big deal.

**Blake** (2:29)
Hatless Tyler.

**Alexander Marlow** (2:31)
I do want to say for purposes of, you know, for the purposes of Lindsay Clancy.
So as we record it, we're recording this on Thursday. We do not know if the jury will come back yet. Live in live in real time here on Thursday, the jury has yet to come back with a verdict. So we will see. So if that changes, I don't know, we'll have to make, we'll have to make Blake come in on a Saturday to record his thought crime response.

**Blake** (3:02)
Oh, there'll be, that'll definitely go viral when we respond to that.

**Tyler** (3:06)
I cannot wait to see the responses from the insane people.

**Blake** (3:10)
And the truth is, I'll be honest, my gut read, my gut read is we're going to get an acquittal or mistrial. I just think it's nine women, three guys on the jury. Oh no. I didn't realize that. I think it's going to be-

**Alexander Marlow** (3:23)
Well, that was the breaking- You think about how the reason I think it'll be hard for them to overcome-

**Blake** (3:27)
That the husband was testifying on her behalf. I think it's going to be hard for them to overcome.
Even though it doesn't make too much sense to us, that's my vibe feel and then America is going to have a giant spaz out about it. But we don't need to litigate that because we'll have ample chance to do so, and we have hard out tonight for various reasons. So we were going to talk about AI worship music and we still want to talk about that. But then hot off the presses dropping in like a comet from the skies, mere minutes before we went live. President Donald J. Trump, Trump, Donald Trump dropped his canonical ranking of the United States Presidents with like 15 presidents missing, which is pretty funny, but everyone has to break down President Trump's list of greatest presidents because honestly, it's a pretty funny ranking. He has Woodrow Wilson and FDR is great presidents. He has Ronald Reagan as not a president. He's not on the list. He has Joe Biden and Obama as failures understandably, but neither of the Bush's and no Nixon, no LBJ.
