Trump's Big Election Fraud Speech + AMA 272

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.
No, I really rolled over the peonies, and I bought some and drop them on the peonies, and I felt really guilty for it. Well, let's change the subject for now. We will listen to part of the podcast show The Charlie Kirk Show. Some names are Charles J.

Wireify Studios. I almost did it again, Blake. Blake is there with my mic flag.

**Blake** (1:29)
And I shall always have it.

**Andrew Colvet** (1:31)
How we doing, Blake?

**Blake** (1:32)
I might move the mic flag over to my microphone. You'd be powerless to stop me.

**Andrew Colvet** (1:36)
That's not true. Caboose has my back.
President Trump had his big speech last night, primetime address, which was obviously not covered by the fake news media that caused a stir. NBC, ABC, CNN. All refused to cover it. In it, he alleged that the Chinese had been meddling in our elections, pointing back to 2020, that they have secured voter files for over 220 million Americans, including a revelation that almost 300,000 non-citizens are registered to vote, and that the Intel community has intentionally subverted the president, not informing him. They were massaging Intel reports, burying the lead and much, much more. I figured rather than just go through it clip by clip, I wanted to bring in somebody that's been studying this very closely, and that's Brianna Lyman, elections correspondent for The Federalist. Brianna, welcome to The Charlie Kirk Show. Thank you for making some time for us this morning. This is what you cover, this is your beat.
Boil it down here, distill it for us. What were to you the biggest takeaways of last night that our audience needs to know?

**Brianna Lyman** (2:49)
Yeah, and thank you so much for having me. I think the overall takeaway is that despite what the left may say, the 2020 election is not beyond reproach and concern. And I go back to John Radcliffe when he was at the DNI back in January of 2021 He put out a statement and he had said that he had concerns that the intelligence community was essentially downplaying or politicizing their investigations into whether China influenced the 2020 election. And I think everything we're seeing in the past 24 hours actually validates what John Radcliffe had said five years ago. So we did see that apparently the intelligence community was trying to hide from the sitting president intelligence indicating that China did have some attempt to influence the election vis-a-vis social media campaigns. There was also a report suggesting China may have looked at the 2016 election, identified states and sectors that supported President Trump and would then use their own leverage to try and basically cripple those entities so that they couldn't help President Trump in the 2020 election. Those are all things that are extremely, you know, cause for concern. We saw other declassified material indicating that the same items that the intelligence community said in the 2021 report didn't show China trying to influence elections, mainly social media operations, are the same things that the intelligence community then said in 2023 did contribute to China influencing the 2022 midterms. So there's that politicization that we're talking about.

**Andrew Colvet** (4:23)
Yeah. And the politicization is a huge issue here. And the fact that China seems to be intentionally poking at vulnerabilities in the American cultural and political system, including trying to stoke racial animus and discord and also working with journalists that were anti-Trump journalists to write additional anti-Trump stories. So it's sort of an attack from multiple vectors. Now I've seen there's some controversy or disagreement about their access to these 220 million voter files. Some are saying you could pay a small fee and get these files at the state level in some states. Break that part down for us, Brianna.
