Summary
Republicans are divided over the debt ceiling deal. Reps. Chip Roy and Andy Biggs join the show, taking turns explaining why they are each a "hard no" to the deal, and discussing whether it has any hope of clearing the House with so much hostility. Plus, New York has a brand new law abolishing "weight discrimination," pushed by the "fat acceptance" movement. Charlie responds, explaining why obesity is a personal choice, why "fat shaming" is healthy, and why conservatives should feel a moral obligation to get their health in order. The response is immediate, and Charlie reads emails from both an offended fan, and another who turned his life around after being inspired by Charlie's message on health.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. |
| 0:00.7 | The Charlie Kirk Show. Oh, we make some headlines with this episode. Well, first, we have |
| 0:04.4 | Chip Roy, and then I do a little interlude about the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance. |
| 0:09.9 | No, that's a real organization. They argue that we need to reaccommodate the rest of our society for them. |
| 0:15.6 | It's not a joke. New York City has now passed some new health measures. I don't think we should validate people's |
| 0:22.3 | obesity. In fact, we received a lot of angry emails when we did this segment. It's not my heart |
| 0:27.4 | to try to sow discord. People very fired up. I think that if you are 150 pounds overweight, |
| 0:32.4 | you should make some changes to try to lose weight. I think you'll be healthier, you'll be happier, |
| 0:37.0 | and you'll be a |
| 0:37.6 | better person. We should not become a country where being 100 to 150 pounds overweight is considered |
| 0:43.8 | normal or good. In fact, even the CDC, which I don't exactly trust all the time, says that it |
| 0:49.3 | increase high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease. It is something that you |
| 0:54.9 | can do to actually improve other health outputs. But we received plenty of angry emails. People |
| 0:59.2 | pretty fired up about it. And you can continue to get in line on that. Email me freedom at |
| 1:03.7 | charliekirk.com. We're not going to back away from it. But equally, we're receiving really |
| 1:08.4 | promising emails of people that say, Charlie, because you speak truthfully on this, I have lost weight, I'm deciding to lose weight, |
| 1:14.6 | I'm 30 pounds down, 80 pounds down, 100 pounds down. Glutney is one of the seven deadly sins. |
| 1:20.2 | I'm sorry that that deeply offends people. I personally know that when I have decided to lose weight, |
| 1:25.3 | I feel better, I move better. I encourage those of you |
| 1:28.0 | to think and pray about that as well. And I'm sure I'll be hearing for many of you. |
| 1:33.1 | Get involved at Turning Point USA.com. That is tpUSA.com. Get involved with our young women's |
| 1:38.7 | leadership summit. It's tpusa.usa.com slash YWLS. I encourage you to check out. We have Candace Owens. You have Al-B Stucky, |
