0:58.1 | 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. That's why we are here. |
1:09.0 | Brought to you by the loan experts I trust Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific mortgage at Andrew and Todd dot com. |
1:19.0 | I have mentioned this a couple of times throughout the hours I'm going to do it again but email me free to make Charlie Kirk dot com we're going to go through that I'm also going to answer some questions on stoicism we have a fair amount of questions on that and there are other questions as well as well as I should I go to college we will address that okay so let's get into first and foremost someone said this here. |
1:45.0 | I'm going to get my kids involved with turning point USA thank you. |
1:53.1 | And I love James O'Keefe I love when you have them on the show if you spoke into James is he okay broke from buildings Montana I have I spoke to James O'Keefe last evening I'm not going to divulge any private information from that call I can say though that he's going through a tough time as you could possibly imagine and he needs your support he needs your prayers this is a rallying cry and should be for James O'Keefe. |
2:14.0 | James O'Keefe has been there on every tough fight and look I don't want to be too speculative however I do not think it is a coincidence that a lot of this activity bubbles up to the surface when James O'Keefe delivers a successful shot on target against Pfizer. |
2:42.0 | I'm not saying that fires behind it I'm not I'm not saying that it's just interesting it was the most successful video that project Veritas has ever done objectively said it is 30 million views it was extraordinary it's suggested that Pfizer is now involved in gain a function research and has been it should result in massive congressional increase and then just days after that all this drama with James O'Keefe regardless of whether it's a good thing to do it. |
3:11.0 | Regardless of whether it some people are saying well Charlie regardless of whether James O'Keefe is with project Veritas or not he has a bright future of course that is true but my position and I've communicated this both publicly and privately as someone that knows how difficult it is to build something from nothing is absent federal crimes that were committed and I don't know if that happened and I certainly don't think so. |
3:41.0 | I've asked and I've asked and that does not seem to be the case of course there's lines for everything so it's not just a blank check but if it's true that James was cruel to people and mean to people very subjective but let's pretend he was and that he was calling people names and that he was spending money to bring people to a theater production. |
4:02.9 | Then there should be some sort of path to restoration that that's not a reason to kick somebody out of their own organization and you know people say well Charlie are two separate things James O'Keefe and project Veritas I mean come on. |
4:19.9 | It is not unheard of for a founder to be kicked out of a company that they started. |
4:28.8 | It's also not unheard of for the person to be kicked out of the company that they started and then they brought back in like Steve Jobs Steve Jobs was kicked out and then he was brought back in and so the the saga with O'Keefe is this is that I truly believe that unless there's some massive smoking gun revelation that comes to the surface that there needs to be a path for restoration. |
4:58.8 | And reinstitution for James O'Keefe the continue to run project Veritas and at the breaking at the time of the board meeting there was this cease and desist letter sent to project Veritas as board by many major donors I know some of those donors and I'm not privy to say the details behind that but I've been looped in on this and James O'Keefe for James O'Keefe's future with the company is in peril. |
5:22.7 | Now I've been told by project Veritas insiders that there's more to the story and you're going to learn about it and you're going to see that we're doing everything we possibly can to you know comply with state and federal law. |
5:36.7 | I sure hope the reason is good enough to kick somebody out of the organization that they found it. |
5:42.6 | That's a very high threshold not impossible and obviously no one is above accountability but look it takes a lot of energy and intensity to build an organization from scratch. |
