Content will be forthcoming, you're not going to want to miss it. In the meantime, we have lots to cover including the newest, the newest hoax in a long string of hoaxes, the bloodbath hoax. We dive into it and we show why it's probably part of a wrap-up smear led by none other than Nancy Pelosi and the media incredibly is doubling down. We break it all down for you and then Charlie calls in en route to campus to give his take on it and also to reflect on the changing demographics and the new registrants, the changing of the guard politically that we're observing and that Charlie is at the tip of the spear of on the ground at campus.

So don't go anywhere, buckle up, 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.

Go to noblegoldinvestments.com. We're going to dive right into this bloodbath hoax. It was all the news this weekend and Charlie had a couple tweets that went totally viral, just you know calling it what it is.

It's a hoax people. As much as you hate the news media, the legacy news media, you don't hate them enough. They are the enemy of the people. I want to show you this just really quick graphic really quick. It's endemic of what happens when the news media takes something and they run with it even when they know that it's a lie.

I put up image 13 for me if you would studio. Image 13, this is NBC News, CBS News, Rolling Stone. Trump says there will be a bloodbath if he loses the election. In Ohio rally, Trump says there will be a bloodbath.

Trump says there will be a bloodbath. They took this and then they ran with it and then all of the Sunday talkers, all the news on Sunday morning was just about this single topic. They got called out on the lie because it was phony.

It was absolutely phony. Let's play what Trump actually said. From the Trump speech, let's play what he actually said and then you guys will just have to not believe your lying eyes. You will have to suspend consciousness for at least 30 seconds here to get to the same conclusion as the legacy news media.

It is truly something to behold, cup 14. Those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now and you think you're gonna get that, you're gonna not hire Americans and you're gonna sell the cars to us now. We're gonna put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line and you're not gonna be able to sell those cars. If I get elected, now if I don't get elected, it's gonna be a bloodbath for the whole, that's gonna be the least of it. It's gonna be a bloodbath for the country.

That'll be the least of it. Okay, so he's talking about the car makers. He's speaking directly to them. He's talking about electric vehicles. He's saying that if Biden gets elected, then guess what? China's gonna set up all these factories in Mexico and they're gonna ship them into the United States. It's gonna obliterate. It's gonna be a bloodbath for the automakers in Detroit and elsewhere, which of course he's completely right.

China has an absolute dead set agenda to take out America, to weaken it economically and one of the vectors of that attack is going to be with the automakers. So this hoax got called out on X, formerly known as Twitter and of all people, guess who deleted one of their hoax tweets? That would be Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough and he is, so you thought maybe he would be correcting the record.

You thought maybe he was going to say, hey, listen, listen, it was taken out of context. Obviously there's a lot of rhetoric going around these days, the heated rhetoric. We got to bring the temperature down. Hey, we deleted it.

Because listen, there's enough to critique on Donald Trump. We don't need to be making stuff up. No, that's not what he said. He doubled down. He's calling you an idiot.

Cup four. He's talking about a bloodbath for America. It's laid out in the terms of it.

And these idiots on Twitter, these idiots on cable news, these idiots on Sunday shows, where are our presidents? He was talking only about the auto industry and this is one more. It's just bullshit. Let me say that at 6.15 AM. It's just bullshit. These people may be stupid. We're not.

That's called a self-own people. Joe Scarborough, just a total gentleman at six in the morning. He's just throwing out swear words right on national television. I hope they get fined massively as this show would get fined for swearing on national television, but he probably won't.

Probably won't be. Nancy Pelosi rushed to CNN to do the same thing. Cut five. He's even predicting a bloodbath. What does that mean? He's going to exact a bloodbath. There's something wrong here. How respectful I am of the American people and their goodness, but how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn't what our country is about. But you know, something stinks when it comes to Nancy Pelosi rushing to CNN. She thought she had an in, and we have some tape here that explains exactly maybe why Nancy was so keen to rush on CNN and do the wrap-up smear. You ever heard of a wrap-up smear?

Well, we have, and so has Nancy. Go ahead and play cut 15. Called the wrap-up smear. You smear somebody with falsehoods and all the rest, and then you merchandise it. And then you write it, and they'll say, see, it's reported in the press that this, this, this, and this. So they have that validation that the press reported the smear, and then it's called the wrap-up smear. Now I'm going to merchandise the press's report on the smear that we made. And it's a tactic, and it's self-evident. Oh, are you merchandising the wrap-up smear by running to CNN and reinforcing a total and complete lie, Nancy? Because that's certainly what it looks like you're doing.

And I'm so glad that you walked us through step by step how this works. Again, people, if you do not hate the legacy news media yet, you should. And as much as you hate them, you should probably hate them more. When they, when we say they are the enemy of the people, they really and truly are.

This, by the way, feels so much, and producer Blake made this point, I completely agree. This feels like 2016 all over again. It just, I mean, it's like election season, and the Trump hoaxes just have to begin. Remember back in 2016, when Trump said that he wished Russia or anybody else would find Hillary Clinton's missing emails?

Do you remember this? What a massive story this became? So this is Trump basically calling the fake news what it is. Fake news media and their Democrat partners, the destruction of our nation, pretended to be shocked at my use of the word bloodbath. Even though they fully understood, I was simply referring to imports allowed by crooked Joe Biden, which are killing the automobile industry. The United Auto Workers, but not their leadership, fully understand what I mean with the electric car mandate being pushed by Biden. There soon won't be any cars made in the USA unless I'm elected president.

So, okay, this is a completely manufactured hoax. I completely agree with President Trump in that way. Folks, so many people I know are disheartened that our country seems to have forgotten the importance of citizenship, and they wonder how a strong sense of citizenship might be revived. That's why my friends at Hillsdale College have produced a free online course on this topic, American Citizenship and Its Decline. Taught by historian Victor Davis Hanson, the course traces the history of citizenship and explains how it is undermined in America today by open borders, by identity politics, by the administrative state, and by globalization.

Americans taking the course will gain a deeper insight about the connection between citizenship and freedom, an insight they can share with their family members, friends, and neighbors. Hillsdale's free online courses are an important component of Hillsdale's mission to reach and teach increasing millions of people on behalf of liberty and the American way of life. So sign up today for Hillsdale's free online course, American Citizenship and Its Decline, by visiting charlieforhillsdale.com. That is charlieforhillsdale.com.

Start your free course today at charlieforhillsdale.com. Get ready. This is just going to keep happening. The hoaxes are going to keep rolling in because we have a news media that is an enemy of the people. It's a sad truth, but it's the truth. So I promised this clip.

Let's go ahead and play it. Cut 17. That a person in our government, Katie, would delete or get rid of 33,000 emails. That gives me a big problem. After she gets a subpoena, she gets subpoenaed and she gets rid of 33,000 emails.

That gives me a problem. Now, if Russia or China or any other country has those emails, I mean, to be honest with you, I'd love to see them. Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.

I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. All right, so to me, this is the perfect analog to what we're experiencing right now with this bloodbath hoax, which the media is doubling down on, currently doubling down on. They think that they are totally justified, even though it's plainly obvious to anybody with a brain that Trump was talking about the automotive industry. In this clip, Trump was talking about Russia and other foreign actors basically having access to US secrets because Hillary Clinton had emails stored on a private server and then she deleted them illegally and was never held accountable for them. Trump was making the point, obviously, that when you hold emails on a private server that you are now vulnerable to having those emails hacked when you're the Secretary of State for the President at the executive level and foreign actors might want to hack your server to get intel on you.

So Trump is plainly making an ingest saying, hey, I'm sure you already have these, why don't you leak these to the press and then we can really have a story about it. The media has spent years moaning and groaning about that clip. It was the predicate for the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.

It was the starting point. In fact, James Comey himself says he began to suspect that Trump was a Russian asset because of that clip I just played you where he was obviously joking, obviously saying something in jest and obviously poking at Hillary Clinton's flagrant abuse of classified documents on a private server and then deleting those 30,000 emails so that the world would never know. Well, I'm sure some foreign actors did know what was on that server and Trump was making that point clear as day where normal Americans could understand it but you know who couldn't understand it? The brain dead media. The brain dead media that are so incentivized because they're all left wingers, just about 90% of the media is left wing and so they're incentivized to use these types of clips against Trump, create hoaxes and then as Nancy Pelosi said, the wrap-up smear where they merchandise it because the press will print it and then it justifies what they say about it and when I say that the media is doubling down on this, I really mean they're doubling down on this.

Play cut three. The Sunday shows were filled with questions about two eye-catching comments Trump made last night. In one, Trump said migrants are not people and in the other, he painted a dark future for the country if he does not win. And this is Maria Cardona goes on to say his cult MAGA supporters and followers totally know exactly what he was telling them and guess what? They demonstrated that on January 6th. Everything comes back to January 6th and that's why we had Kash Patel on the show on Friday documenting how the Jan January 6th committee destroyed evidence, exonerating evidence such as Trump had 10,000, had approved 10,000 National Guard troops to be on the ground on January 6th. They deleted, destroyed documentation.

Why? Because it is the hinge, it is the crux of so much of their justification for fighting Donald Trump, for getting Donald Trump, for the law fair assault on Donald Trump that we've seen. That's why he's facing 700 years in federal prison right now. Everything hinges on their ability to paint Donald Trump as an extreme MAGA, dictator, fascist, whatever. And that is why we see all these different through lines, these threads connect to it and now the bloodbath hoax is just the newest iteration and an age-old assault on Donald Trump because they cannot control him. He is an existential threat to them.

Okay, Kirk fans, I need you to stop and pay attention to this. If you deal with exhaustion, brain fog, mood swings or food cravings, if you're constantly getting sick or simply lack the zeal you used to have in life, then I have some news for you. A while back, I found a liquid supplement called Strong Cell and it changed my health in a very profound way.

I take it every single day. Look, I knew I had to partner with them. I did the research. Google and look up online what happens when you mix NADH with CoQ10 and marine collagen.

It's simple. Every area of your body has cells. So if your cells are healthier, then you will also be healthier.

You don't have to take my word for it. Listen to one of these testimonials. After taking Strong Cell for six weeks, I found improvement in many areas, less shoulder pain, improved mental clarity, increased natural energy and so much more. I'm thankful that Charlie Kirk recommended this to his listeners.

Rebecca says, I absolutely love Strong Cell. At first, I didn't think it would make much of a difference for my chronic fatigue, depression and anxiety, but I thought I'd give it a chance. I've tried to find depression meds for 10 years and since you Strong Cell, I'm feeling better than I ever have on depression medication. Customer for life, thank you, Charlie Kirk, for recommending this product.

So there it is. You've heard from me directly and some of the users who have seen their lives changed by Strong Cell. I personally recommend taking it every day for at least 30 days. I take it every day before I go on the air and it's helped me in more ways than I can even name.

Each of our bodies is very different, so I would recommend you give the supplement at least two to three months to see the changes in your body. Go to StrongCell.com and learn more for yourself.

Oh, this is surreal. You're doing a great job, Andrew. I'm just feet away from going on campus here and just want to make sure we called in and gave a little update. There's so much news happening. You're doing a great job covering all of it.

This bloodbath thing is is noteworthy, I think, for a couple reasons, but I know we'll get into that. But yeah, things are going great on this campus swing, campus tour. I'm going to go do a during the day kind of midday campus event, which is some of our favorite stuff.

Then have some meetings and then we have our evening event tonight. We've already oversold it two or three times over and last night we had our church event with John Randall. We had well over 1300 people there.

We could have fit another 1000 people just way oversold that as well. So the energy on the ground is terrific. It's off the charts. And I mentioned this last week, the diversity of people that are attending these events. I'm talking about Hispanic and black and Asian. And we're seeing it in the numbers now.

We see it in the New York Times data that new voters and low propensity voters are increasingly tilting towards the Republican direction. And we're seeing it on the ground. We're trying to do our part. So lots to cover. And thanks for filling in, Andrew. Yeah, I mean, it's an honor, Charlie, and people really don't have an idea of a proper understanding of how busy you actually are. I mean, you had that church event last night. And I mean, it seems like, you know, all of them subscribe to the podcast, because we're getting tons of messages and reviews, and everybody's very excited about it. But you know, you have this campus event today, you're doing the tabling and and the prove me wrong or, you know, the sorry, you know, change my mind. And it's, it's all it all builds together at all as part of a whole people don't have a vision for all of it. You know, you talk about a lot on the show about the chase the ballot, chase the vote initiative, you talk about our campus chapters, all of these things, but in its totality, you are literally a juggernaut, you're one man guy that's that I don't, I just know that people do not appreciate your schedule and what you are actually getting accomplished. But they do see these clips, Charlie. This is before we get into this bloodbath thing, I want to play some of this from what happens on campus. So people realize what you're doing and you're about to do in a few minutes here.

Let's play cut 18. Are you truthfully like here to try to change people's minds? Or is there kind of a benefit to keeping people divided?

How am I dividing people? If I asked you if you disagree, you come to the mic? Well, no, I'm just saying it's like you use you have these like clickbaity titles.

It says like prove me wrong. What is a woman you're dividing things very black and white. What is a woman is not a clickbaity title?

I think it is what is a woman? I'm not trying to answer that your critics are saying that you're trying to keep people divided. They're urging people not to come talk to you because you're going to spin it. What would you like to say to like your critics? They're welcome to come to the microphone and say whatever they want to me, but they're intellectual cowards and they won't do that. You know how we heal our divides by talking to people we disagree with?

I would agree with that closer to a civil war if we act like that you heal the country when you allow disagreement and you allow a microphone with people that have differing views. That's the that's the great Charlie Kirk right there. Charlie, you've created a whole genre of these videos. And you know, you have a lot a lot of people that that attempt to do it like this. But but for some reason you are the the the a team when it comes to this.

You have set the standard. What is it like when you when you meet these kids? And it's you have no idea what they're going to say you have no idea what they're going to approach you with or they're going to try and get you. What's your approach?

How do you mentally get in that headspace? Yeah, you know, you just have to try to remain calm and have dialogue and you know, want to try to pursue the truth. And I think it actually interestingly connects to this bloodbath story. Because, you know, you think about it, this guy came up to the microphone there, and he had a very specific opinion of me.

And we talked about it. And then other people are able to judge who's the reasonable person. And you look at you know, Trump said perfectly, you know, fair thing saying that the auto automobile industry was going to go through a bloodbath if he's not elected, and the country will not be in a good place. And the media doesn't ask for comment. They don't ask for follow up. They don't ask for clarification. And they just they just peddle this outright lie to try to misrepresent Donald Trump and our entire movement and connecting back to the campus thing.

I see this like you become a more radical, harsher country, if you don't speak to one another. And you know, I get the number one question I get from, I'd say like center left dissent is why are you here? Why are you here?

Which is kind of a bizarre question. Pretty obvious why I'm there. First, it's to support our amazing Turning Point USA students.

And Andrew, you've been around them. They're like the most incredible, just inspiring patriots who get their teeth kicked in every day for their viewpoint and their worldview. And so it's to support them number one. Number two, it's just to show the other students that they're not in the intellectual minority as much as they might think. And there's hundreds of other students that see the world the way they do. And then number three is, let's see how strong the ideas of the academy actually are. And if their ideas were truly bulletproof, then there'd be professors lining up one after the other. Think about this, you have an opportunity, you know, we're rather well known now, praise God, and we have millions of followers. All it would take is for one professor to come up, he could bring his own camera crew, and quote unquote prove Charlie Kirk wrong.

And you know, he would be, he would get like a big video out of it. But they don't do that. Because speech is not a left-wing value. In fact, they are threatened by dialogue, they're threatened by free discourse. And so our kind of presence on campus is trying to have a restoration of the eternal idea that every human being has a right for a different opinion, and that good ideas need to be expressed and bad ideas need to be challenged. And I believe one of the reasons that people think we're so divided in this country is we don't talk to one another enough. We don't have those kind of tough conversations in the pursuit of truth.

And instead, we kind of just go into our own, you know, created echo chambers and call each other names. And that's the opposite of what we're going to do today. And it's a hostile campus, I can't wait. I'm told there's a bunch of protesters, and I'm sure there'll be a lot of fans and supporters too. And I hope everyone recognizes and realize that, you know, for every one protester, every one disagreement, there's 20 or 30 people that agree that sit through the entire change my mind and they want pictures and they tell me thank you so much, I'm alone, I'm being graded down because of, you know, my viewpoint.

So it's really important work. And I think it connects to a lot of the news stories we're covering today. And I believe that the moment that we as conservatives don't go into places that openly disagree with us, we will be writing our own eulogy. But I think the more we go into these hostile environments, the more especially we spread these videos on social media, you know, I don't want to take credit for it, Andrew, but maybe you can cue it up because you have it in front of you. I think it parlays beautifully into that New York Times article that I want to talk about, which is we are seeing a realignment. And I think part of it is, again, part of it is this mentality and Matt Walsh deserves credit, and Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens when she speaks with us. I think that there's a group of us that have just been nonstop pressure campaign to go to places that disagree with us. And I think we're starting to see real penetration and movement. Andrew, can you talk about this realignment story? I think it's really interesting.

Yeah, I'm actually going to have the team bring up the graphic here. It's truly important. So this New York Times story is basically showing that since 2019, every single demographic age group has a share of new major party registrants who were Democratic has dropped. So for example, overall, all new registrants were 58% Democrat, that has now dropped to 53%.

That's a five point loss. 18 to 29, Charlie, and this one's huge. 63% were registering Democrats, now only 57%. Now, and it's that famous quote often attributed to Churchill, we're not sure. But if you, you know, if they say if you're if you're a conservative, when you're young, you're heartless. If you're a liberal, when you're when you're older, you're brainless. So you know, it kind of feels like, you know, if you're still not getting, if you're if you're 57%, you're under 60% now with 18 to 29. That's a massive, massive change. Now you look at 45 to 64. So that's kind of like your Gen Xers.

They're only getting 46%. Gen Xers are going to save the country. I'm almost convinced of it. But to your point, Charlie, no, I've said that for a while.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you told it and Jack Pacific says similar things. And here's the thing. When you do what you've done, and when you start a turning point, a lot of people looked at you sideways for this, but you went straight into the lion's den, you went to the hardest places to have speech as a conservative. And you started forcefully pushing back, forcefully pushing back and you store, I think the conservative conservatives of old prioritize being a gentleman and all these things, which are good virtues. But when you're dealing with an existential threat, and in many ways, ideological evil that wants to trans your kids wants to lie about your country, call everybody systemically racist, you're now you got to understand and I know this is cliche at this point, what time it is.

And you were one of the first to do that. You went into these campuses, and you and you had the hard conversations. And now we're starting to see the fruit of it. And you're starting to see other people assume the same kind of posture, people call it divisive. And in some ways, ideologically, it has to be because the ideas that they're, they're now pushing, especially on our kids are so incredibly vile, that you have to hit them right in the face, you have to take them head on. And I want to play one more clip from Charlie on Campus in this recent tour for our audience to hear it and see it to get it just how intense these moments can get. But the breakthrough is real.

Play cut 19. I want you to take on immigration. If you're in this country illegally, you should be deported.

We should also restrict the amount of legal immigrants coming into this country as well. So you believe that everyone no matter what you've done deserves to be deported. If they're illegal, they didn't do nothing. They broke into our home.

They know what they did. They trespassed. They domiciled themselves illegally. And you should be sent back to your country of origin.

What about for the kids? Go back to your country of origin. So you would tell me to go back to my country? Are you born here or not? I'm born here. Well, I think we should get rid of right citizenship.

But technically, we have it. So you should stay. But yes, but I'm contributing society.

Good for you. Okay, but did your parents come here illegally? Yeah, my mom's from Mexico.

My dad's in Syria. Did he come here illegally too? Not him. Just my mom. So when she came here, did she know she was breaking the law?

Yeah. Did she know? She probably know. You might not like to hear it, but your mom's a criminal. And every day she stayed here is no different than squatting.

You're squatting in America. Again, your mom contributes a lot, right? Then she can contribute back in Mexico. She can go build a beautiful business and get a job.

You know, go to here. The point is that she wasn't welcome here. She wasn't invited.

She cut in line. She took the place of other legal immigrants from across the world that have to wait decades to come into here. Do you think we should get rid of the law that says you can't come into a country illegally? Should we just get rid of that law?

In my honest opinion? Yeah. I would say no. No, we shouldn't get rid of it. No. Okay, I agree. So then when should we enforce it?

I don't know. You got him. No, yes, it's important. And I want to address this idea that I'm divisive.

I have a better way to now counter that. I think we're being disruptive in a good way. We're being ideological disruptive to the kind of just one-size-fits-all worldview that cascades over these university campuses. I don't think we're dividing people.

I think that we're getting people to think differently about their viewpoints. And that's such a threat because the left in its current form, they need totalitarian uniformity. They can't have any dissension whatsoever. Any dissension is a threat to them. And these university campuses used to be places of free speech and open dialogue and agree to disagree. And we've said for a while they have become islands of totalitarianism. And again, I will say though, the amount of support in the body politics is remarkable. The more reasonable group is winning the debate. And we see that in the New York Times realignment piece that you just went through. And it's profound. It has been years and years of work. I don't know if that's going to manifest politically in November.

That's more honestly of a technical question. Can we chase the ballots? Can we get them? Can we secure our elections?

But I can say this, the country is becoming more center-right. That is a fact. Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here. As you know, Mike Lindell has a passion to help you get the best sleep of your life.

This is the key to the saving the civilization, so I want everyone to think about it. In the highest voter turnout election year in American history was 2020. Blake gets the number. I think it was 75 to 80% voter turnout just because of mass mail-in voting and COVID and BLM. It was a pressure cooker. I think it was 70. I could be wrong, but it was the highest ever in American history.

It was just out of control. Maybe there was an election 100 years ago that was higher, but it was at least in the modern era, the highest. There are still millions of people who didn't vote in 2020, and who are these people? Well, Donald Trump is doing amazing with these individuals, so we need to find them. A lot of them are working-class Hispanics. Some of them are muscular-class black Americans, patriots of all ages, all backgrounds, hunters, people that are gun owners, or first-time voters, people that might have been 19 or 20, and they might have said, oh, how do I vote, or what is this all about, or they were cynical at the time, and they see that they can't own a home, and so we need to find these low-propensity voters. If we can find 50,000 to 60,000 of them and get them out to vote in Arizona, if we can find 40,000 or 50,000 of them in Wisconsin and get them out to vote, this could be the deciding factor. This is where the Democrats have always overperformed the polling in the last couple of years, where we think, oh, Carrie Lake is going to win.

Look at this. She's up seven points, and I understand the election integrity to secure our elections. That's a separate but very, very important topic.

I'm going to put that aside for a second. They're able to overperform and blow up all the models because they find first-time voters that are not in the data, and they're able to micro-target them on wedge issues, abortion, environment, trans issues, but every data set now shows the Democrats have maximized their low-propensity voting pool. They can expand it still a little bit on the edges, new college kids, left-wing zealots. We have not even begun to drill into the reservoir.

Here's the analogy I'll use. It's like we just struck oil in the Permian Basin, and we have discovered horizontal fracking and drilling. We're about to go through one of the greatest renaissance of low-propensity voters in Republican political history. We haven't even thought of the idea that there might be people that didn't vote in 2020. If you talk to the people at the RNC, the old regime that we were very focused on displacing and praise God they're gone, they're under the impression that you just have to win over swing voters and independent voters and whose voting is voting and it is what it is.

No, the pie can get bigger. There are new voters that want to join. There are Joe Rogan listeners. They might be really upset about the vaccine or they lost their job because of it or the lockdowns. We have to find them. We have to register them to vote, and that's what we're doing every single day at Turning Point Action. Scott Pressler, to his great credit, he's doing that as well and he's going to be working with the RNC, and so we're having hundreds of full-time people on our payroll at Turning Point Action, the largest ever effort to be deployed.

That's going to be just focused on this one little, you can call it a niche, but I don't think it's a niche. I think the better way to say it is it's at the sites of demographics of low-propensity people that did not vote in 2020. Couple quick questions for you, but Charlie, you know, we Republicans lead Democrats by five with voters who don't vote.

So that's why what we're doing at Turning Point Action is so important. Charlie, a couple questions. Do you have to be a young person to apply or to get a job? Is it open to anybody? No, all ages.

All ages. Yeah, that's very important. On top of, yeah, literally my day today, you know, last night was raising capital. I'm doing a couple hours on campus this afternoon. I have three Zoom calls, two conference calls trying to raise capital onboarding, you know, strategy calls with Tyler Boyer.

Then I speak for another two hours tonight. Like our plate is full, everybody. If you guys want to volunteer, get engaged, get involved. It's tpaction.com. We're developing a mobile app that is being rolled out right now, the Turning Point Action app. It's soon that we're going to really put the gas behind that and really kind of, you know, accelerate that into more hands. We want to try to have hundreds of thousands of people use this mobile technology.

But the core basis of it is the full-time staff. And so if you want to chase ballots, if you want to work for us, go to tpaction.com. We're currently hiring. We'd love to talk to you. We'd love to meet with you.

You might be the right fit for us. And it's exciting time. And that final thing I'll say is that, yes, we win by five points of people that don't vote. Well, look, we also have to say this. The election system is not as secure as we like it, but everyone needs to vote. The way that we make sure that Democrats win is that we do not vote. And we just say the elections are broken and rigged and terrible. We need to vote.

And while simultaneously fixing our elections, getting rid of the people off the voter rolls. So glad I was able to call in. Andrew, you're doing a great job. We're super busy. We're trying to move the dial.

We're seeing the evidence of it. And God bless. Check out tpaction.com. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Consider joining members.charliekirk.com.
