00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.439
<v Speaker 1>Joining me now straight from her travels to the other

2
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:05.759
<v Speaker 1>side of the state. It's Heidik and all everybody. She

3
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:09.960
<v Speaker 1>was at the Charlie Kirk memorial yesterday at CSU, and Heidi,

4
00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:13.119
<v Speaker 1>I watched about thirty minutes of that This morning. A

5
00:00:13.199 --> 00:00:15.119
<v Speaker 1>listener sent me the Lincoln I put it on the

6
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:18.039
<v Speaker 1>blog if anybody wants to go watch the memorial. What

7
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:22.000
<v Speaker 1>a lovely, lovely way to honor Charlie Kirk. And to

8
00:00:22.079 --> 00:00:25.760
<v Speaker 1>see thousands of people in that stadium was so heartening.

9
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:27.320
<v Speaker 1>What was it like to be there?

10
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:32.799
<v Speaker 2>Hi, Mandy. It was a beautiful, beautiful gathering of people,

11
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.000
<v Speaker 2>and the weather was amazing, and it was just so

12
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:38.200
<v Speaker 2>peaceful and calm, and it was about I think it

13
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:40.640
<v Speaker 2>was over seven thousand people was the final count, and

14
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:43.439
<v Speaker 2>about I think I half of them we're CSU students,

15
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:47.560
<v Speaker 2>which is crazy. Yeah, so cool. And was blessed to

16
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:50.280
<v Speaker 2>speak with Isabel Brown, who's a CSO alumni and a

17
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:52.799
<v Speaker 2>big influencer. You got to follow Isabel if you don't already.

18
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 2>She's just so good show on Daily Wire.

19
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:58.520
<v Speaker 1>She's so so good. She is so so good.

20
00:00:58.640 --> 00:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>I love her.

21
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:01.520
<v Speaker 1>She is a she's also a happy warrior.

22
00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:04.920
<v Speaker 2>He is a happy warrior and she has a new

23
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:08.159
<v Speaker 2>little baby and she's just this is so it's getting

24
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>to her. You know, Mandy is a new mom. Like

25
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:13.120
<v Speaker 2>how violence and you start to see the world differently. Yeah,

26
00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:15.599
<v Speaker 2>And I feel like that really does affected is about

27
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:17.120
<v Speaker 2>a lot. I've known it for a long time. But

28
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 2>overall the event was awesome. But in sorry you guys,

29
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:21.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm at the airport. If there's stuff in the background,

30
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:24.040
<v Speaker 2>I tried to find the quite a little spot. I'm

31
00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Mountain Durango, which is actually getting very very left down here.

32
00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:32.840
<v Speaker 2>But the counter protest that was going on near the

33
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:37.200
<v Speaker 2>vigil was really concerning. It's called part of the uns

34
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 2>Bad Word to America Tour, believe it or not, that's

35
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:43.959
<v Speaker 2>what they call it. And it was. It was pretty rowdy.

36
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:46.719
<v Speaker 2>I hear. It was pretty negative and it's very concerning

37
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.840
<v Speaker 2>that the guy leading that effort guide girl, I'm not sure,

38
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:52.640
<v Speaker 2>which said we need to be afraid of getting killed

39
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:55.120
<v Speaker 2>at events. Conservatives need to be afraid of getting killed

40
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:57.439
<v Speaker 2>at events to force leaders like Trump to turn down

41
00:01:57.480 --> 00:01:58.040
<v Speaker 2>the temperature.

42
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of fact, let me just hide just

43
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:03.280
<v Speaker 1>in case people think that you are exaggerating on this.

44
00:02:03.799 --> 00:02:06.400
<v Speaker 1>Let me go ahead and play that audio just a

45
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:08.639
<v Speaker 1>second a ron left the commercial role, and then we'll

46
00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:11.039
<v Speaker 1>go to the audio. I found it this morning, just

47
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that we were giving out. Oh come on,

48
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:17.280
<v Speaker 1>hang on, I've got a pre roll on this and

49
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:19.439
<v Speaker 1>it's just going to take us second to get to

50
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:21.919
<v Speaker 1>where we need to go. This is actually the gentleman

51
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:27.319
<v Speaker 1>who goes by destiny on a podcast at some point,

52
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:28.840
<v Speaker 1>and this is what he had to say.

53
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 2>Exactly like I need you need conservatives to be afraid

54
00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:34.520
<v Speaker 2>of getting killed when they go to events, so that

55
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:37.039
<v Speaker 2>they look to their leadership to turn down the temperature.

56
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Now, ironically, I have not heard him call for his

57
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:43.759
<v Speaker 1>leadership to turn down the temperature.

58
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:47.560
<v Speaker 2>Have you. No, absolutely not. I'm not hearing from many

59
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:50.919
<v Speaker 2>Democrats that we should turn down the temperature. Even in Colorado.

60
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:52.360
<v Speaker 2>The Democrats are not calling for that.

61
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, but Heidi, they are. They're calling for us,

62
00:02:56.240 --> 00:03:00.039
<v Speaker 1>our side, to turn down the temperature. There's literally no

63
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:02.080
<v Speaker 1>naval gazing going on on the left.

64
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:02.879
<v Speaker 2>There's no.

65
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:05.439
<v Speaker 1>And don't get me wrong, and I said this the

66
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>day of the shooting. The only person responsible for the

67
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.439
<v Speaker 1>shooting is the young man who decided that murder was

68
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:13.800
<v Speaker 1>the best option. To shut down speech he didn't like. Right,

69
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:16.879
<v Speaker 1>he's responsible for this murder. But if we're going to

70
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:21.080
<v Speaker 1>talk about the forces in our culture that drove him

71
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>to believe that that was the best thing to do,

72
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:28.039
<v Speaker 1>you cannot do that without talking about left wing rhetoric.

73
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.199
<v Speaker 2>That's right. And I mean, if you look at this

74
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:37.080
<v Speaker 2>tour the way they describe us, it says UFAs is

75
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:42.919
<v Speaker 2>paid influencers and describes Kirk as a brainwashing ultra maga extremist. Yeah,

76
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:45.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that could not be further than the truth.

77
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:49.199
<v Speaker 2>Charlie is one of the most level headed, sensible people

78
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:51.719
<v Speaker 2>I know in politics, and we're going to miss his

79
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:55.280
<v Speaker 2>voice tremendously, especially when it comes to loans like this

80
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 2>and fighting back against them.

81
00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:59.039
<v Speaker 1>Well, let's talk for just a minute, though, about the

82
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:03.199
<v Speaker 1>legacy that is now growing at a rate far greater

83
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:07.360
<v Speaker 1>than it did when Charlie Kirk was alive. You are connected,

84
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 1>how are you connected to Turning Point USA?

85
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:13.199
<v Speaker 2>Well, Manie, I've been a big fan since I met

86
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:16.319
<v Speaker 2>Charlie ten years ago. My dad and him sat next

87
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 2>to each other at an event and they convinced Tory,

88
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:21.040
<v Speaker 2>my older daughter, to run for student body government at

89
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:23.680
<v Speaker 2>University of Oregon, one of the most liberal campuses in

90
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 2>the country, and Charlie actually moved there for three months.

91
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:29.000
<v Speaker 2>It was one of the first campaigns they did, so

92
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:31.000
<v Speaker 2>we got to know him really well, our family did.

93
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.199
<v Speaker 2>And now my sixteen year old just launched the Turning

94
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Point Chapter at Valor High School and it had one

95
00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.319
<v Speaker 2>hundred kids show up the other day. So I've not

96
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 2>Charlie for years. Yeah, and crazy, it was so cool.

97
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.879
<v Speaker 1>You're getting the data about how many students and people

98
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:52.439
<v Speaker 1>are calling to ask about starting a chapter at their

99
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:56.120
<v Speaker 1>high school or their college, and those numbers are huge.

100
00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we wait for this man, you know. Now it's up

101
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.439
<v Speaker 2>to sixty two thousand students have signed up to either

102
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 2>launch a chapter or open a chapter across the country.

103
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:10.680
<v Speaker 2>We've got seven hundred and fourteen high schools here in

104
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:13.439
<v Speaker 2>Colorado in ninety two college campuses, believe it or not,

105
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.360
<v Speaker 2>and we want to make sure every single one has

106
00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:18.759
<v Speaker 2>a Club America, which is what the high school chapters

107
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.560
<v Speaker 2>are called, or Turning Point Chapter, which is the college

108
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 2>version on those college campuses. And we've got an incredible

109
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 2>team of four people that lead that effort in Turning

110
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:31.519
<v Speaker 2>Point that two state directors and then two regional directors

111
00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:32.879
<v Speaker 2>that are going to make that happen and I'm going

112
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:34.399
<v Speaker 2>to do everything I can to help them.

113
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:37.680
<v Speaker 1>And Heidi I had a speaking engagement last Friday and Frederick.

114
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:40.959
<v Speaker 1>But it's just like lovely, lovely group of people, and

115
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:43.720
<v Speaker 1>they kept asking like, how can we help, how can

116
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:46.040
<v Speaker 1>we support it? And of course I'm looking at people

117
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>my age are.

118
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:47.160
<v Speaker 2>A little bit older.

119
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:50.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, well, your money is always appreciated, but is

120
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.560
<v Speaker 1>there a role for me and for them, you know,

121
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the over fifties that are not cool to the college kids, Like,

122
00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>what role, if any, is there for us to support

123
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.800
<v Speaker 1>these young people as they begin to grow this movement.

124
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh, there's so many cool things. You can mentor a

125
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:11.720
<v Speaker 2>student you can mentor a chapter. You can feed them.

126
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:15.319
<v Speaker 2>They love food at their meetings. You can offer to

127
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:17.959
<v Speaker 2>drive them places if they have events. You can donate,

128
00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 2>of course to their chapters. If you go to TPUSA

00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:25.600
<v Speaker 1>only imagine that, you know, Friday night, I had the

153
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:28.120
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to go and I call it fellowship for lack

154
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.319
<v Speaker 1>of a better word to sort of describe it. But

155
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:33.040
<v Speaker 1>it's nice to be around people that feel the same

156
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>way you do and are devastated by this death and

157
00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:39.639
<v Speaker 1>all the implications of this death, because they're so significant.

158
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.480
<v Speaker 1>But if something good can come out of this, if

159
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>if we can have an entire generation of young people activated,

160
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:50.759
<v Speaker 1>it would be an absolute incredible turn of events and

161
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:53.639
<v Speaker 1>a true testament to what Charlie Kirk was trying to do.

162
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Charlie is dancing in heaven right now. I know

163
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 2>he's This is making him dably happy to see all

164
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:04.160
<v Speaker 2>the kids turning to Christ, turning to their faith, and

165
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:07.680
<v Speaker 2>turning to defending our country and actually learning so much

166
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:09.959
<v Speaker 2>from all of his video content, all of his Charlie

167
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Kirk shows. I mean, there's so much content out there

168
00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:14.800
<v Speaker 2>that people can start to engage with and share with

169
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:17.360
<v Speaker 2>their friends, to tell the truth about what he stood

170
00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:20.879
<v Speaker 2>for and who he was, which was an amazing patriot

171
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:23.120
<v Speaker 2>and a wonderful man of faith and a great dad

172
00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:23.600
<v Speaker 2>and father.

173
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:26.480
