The Charlie Kirk Show

For 11 years, Julian Assange has been a hunted man, first under house arrest in an embassy and for the past five years as a British prisoner fighting extradition to the U.S. Mike Pompeo and others have fantasized about having Assange murdered. But why? Charlie talks to Assange's half-brother Gabriel Shipton about what Julian exposed that has made the U.S. deep state so fanatical about destroying him.

A long, viral post by a DeSantis supporter on X lays out what could be the Democrat master plan for winning in 2024: Let the Republicans nominate Trump, then pack him off to prison, replace Biden with a younger Democrat alternative, and let Republicans collapse into a civil war. Whether it happens or not, Charlie wants to know: Is anyone on the right actually wargaming what could happen in 2024? How can we plan for victory if we aren't willing to plan at all?Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Harvard, Penn, and other elite schools are crumbling in the face of Congressional denunciations and donor rage over widespread anti-Semitism. That's great, but Charlie and Chris Buskirk of American Greatness confront a serious threat: What if university admins simply exploit this backlash to enact sweeping new campus speech codes, with conservatives as the number one target? Charlie also reacts to Tucker Carlson's new venture, talks to Byron Donalds about the mistake of FISA renewal, and asks: Is anybody in the GOP actually preparing for what the Democrats are likely to attempt next summer?Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The crises facing America may look overwhelming. But as Charlie explains to the crowd in Pasadena, California, there is only one thing that can make us lose forever: When we give up, instead of following our Christian duty to fight.

For decades, Democrats have banked their political future on the Great Replacement — the systematic displacement of legacy Americans with new immigrants who are more likely to vote for the left.
