Summary
The Charlie Kirk Show gets thousands of emails per week asking "What do I do now?" and "How can I do something to make a difference?" Today on the show, Charlie is joined by Joe Mitchell of 'Run Gen Z' to address those important questions with the best answer possible: run for office. They talk through the process of running, why it matters, and why anyone who feels a calling to public service should stand up and fight for America.
