The Charlie Kirk Show

Why did the FBI show up at Tom Fitton's house, then order him to testify about long-forgotten phone calls he had years ago? Fitton joins Charlie to relate his harrowing personal story, and what it reveals about Jack Smith's secretive campaign against President Trump. Plus, Kane of Citizen Free Press comments on the deep state's summer 2024 assault on Trump and his allies, his readership's thoughts about GOP alternatves, and whether Tucker Carlson could evade Fox's lawsuit by publicly announcing a run for vice president.

The Deep State dropped the ball in 2016. Now, it plans to never let a shock like that happen again. From coordinated Trump indictments, to the nullification of Tucker Carlson, to the takedown operations on Ken Paxton, Steve Bannon, and James O'Keefe, the battle to censor and demoralize the right is in full swing. Charlie provides a wake-up call on how elites want 2024 to be 2020 on steroids, and a forthcoming Trump indictment will be the latest stop in their plans.

Mike Pence, Chris Christie, and Doug Burgum all announced presidential runs (or at least presidential brisk walks) this week. Charlie gives his thoughts on all the announcements, and given none of the new candidates has a shot, he asks: What’s their real agenda? Plus, Jason Rantz stops by to discuss the culture war, the decay of Seattle, and his new book, ‘What’s Killing America.” Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/support See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rep. Matt Gaetz says that Kevin McCarthy breached the agreement that made him Speaker of the House by negotiating a deeply flawed debt ceiling deal with the Biden Administration. Gaetz joins the show to explain why he believes Republican unity is in danger, and what concessions he wants to avoid being pushed into a motion to vacate the chair. Plus, Libby Emmons joins to discuss the proper goal of a child's education (how government-run schools completely miss it), and how Armenian parents in Glendale, California protested against LGBT propaganda in the classroom only to end up in a street brawl with Antifa.

Human Rights Campaign, the nation's biggest pro-gay group, is announcing a "state of emergency" for LGBT Americans. The Southern Poverty Law Center has labeled Moms for Liberty an "extremist group" because it opposes critical race theory and wants porn out of schools. Charlie looks into Moms for Liberty's most "extreme" views, joined by the group's co-founder Tina Descovich. He also explains how these hysterical smears from the left fit into their agenda of constantly escalating censorship and control.

Thomas Baker has been around the FBI since the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan four decades ago. He's seen the FBI at its best, at is worst, and at its ugliest, and now he has a new tell-all book about the decay he saw over the course of his career. Baker joins Charlie to describe the systemic breakdown in the FBI's professionalism and neutrality, how crackpot intelligence analysts have driven the FBI's left-wing agenda, and how a disastrous cultural change has gradually spread from the D.C. headquarters to every field office in the country.

Should political expression be a protected right? How can we both end the Ukraine war and pry Russia away from China? Should we end NATO and replace it with a new anti-China alliance? Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy joins to talk about all that and more. Plus, finance expert David Bahnsen explains the financial and economic ramifications from America's near-breach of the debt ceiling.

On the 79th anniversary of the D-Day landings, Charlie represents on the tremendous bravery America's fighting men showed so long ago, and asks: How did we go from that kind of heroism to drag queens in less than 80 years?

Anna Paulina Luna joins to discuss her astonishing claim that the FBI fears an anti-Biden informant may be in physical danger.

John Strand walked into the U.S. Capitol on January 6...and that's about it. So why was he just sentenced to 32 months in prison by a federal court? John joins Charlie to tell his story, and drive home the necessity of future pardons for the victims of J6 malpractice. Plus, is the word "conservative" obsolete? Texas congressional candidate John O'Shea joins to explain why he prefers a different label, why he's trying to unseat a GOP incumbent, and why he thinks Texas AG Ken Paxton has suddenly become such a target.

To debate or not debate? That is the question for Donald Trump's campaign, with the GOP primary field bigger than ever even as Trump's polling lead grows larger and larger.

Plus, country star John Rich reacts to rumors that Jamie Foxx has suffered serious health issues due to an unwanted Covid vaccination, and speaks up for countless other Americans who have been harmed by Pfizer shots and left without legal recourse by Congress.

What are the five false religions that supposedly "secular" Americans are picking in the place of Christianity? Why is failing to vote not only lazy, but immoral? Why is America already, in effect, a post-constitutional country, and when did it happen? Charlie talks about all this in more in a wide-ranging appearance at Awaken Church in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Republicans will be competing in the 2024 elections, but will they just be showing up, or playing to win? Jack Posobiec guest hosts, and explains why the counter to two thousand Democratic ballot mules is two thousand Scott Preslers ready to hit the bricks, find conservatives, and get their ballots into the box. Plus, Charlie rejoins the show along with Darren Beattie to talk about RFK Jr.'s potential to upset the balance of the Democrat primaries, and whether there is long-term promise to a political coalition between right and left-wing populists.

Conservative musical artists Jimmy Levy and Forgiato Blow are topping the music charts with "Boyott Target," their song attacking Target and its sexualization of children. They join Charlie to talk about the power of protest music to resist liberal overreach, and Charlie explains the link between the left's sudden cultural defensiveness and Elon Musk's liberation of Twitter. Plus, getting attacked is painful, but it's even more painful when the hits are coming from the back. Charlie and Jack Posobiec talk to James O'Keefe about how it feels for the organization he built, Project Veritas, to be suing him using the very money he raised on their behalf.

A massive new report by NBC exposes the disastrous state of the GOP get-out-the-vote effort, which is low on manpower and rife with inefficiency and outright fraud. If this doesn't change, the party will be crushed in 2024. So what do we do, right now, to keep that from happening? Charlie talks to Scott Presler and Tyler Bowyer about this crucial topic, and concludes with an exciting announcement of Turning Point Action's planned work in the key swing state of Wisconsin.

For the hundredth (thousandth?) time, CNN claims to have a HUGE STORY that will BRING DOWN TRUMP forever. What is it this time, and what does it actually mean for President Trump and the 2024 race? Charlie talks to Trump lawyer Alina Habba, who explains what the new story means for a potential wave of indictments in the months to come. Plus, Charlie reflects on the arrival of Pride Month, the high holy days of the modern left, and Colonel Douglass Macgregor describes the many, many parts of the defense budgets Americans could cut to help achieve fiscal sanity.

Conservatives have recently struck blows against wokeness with sustained boycotts of Target and another radical pro-trans companies. But Charlie explains why it's important to hold Chick-fil-A accountable as well, precisely because the company has been so good in the past and deserves to be held to a higher standard. Kane of Citizen Free Press responds to the new right-wing boycott culture, explains how the base views the debt ceiling debate, and reacts to Trump's unexpected feud with former press secretary Kayleigh McEnany. Plus, Rep. Dan Bishop explains his opposition to the debt deal, and why he fears this deal could soon spell the end of both House GOP unity and Kevin McCarthy's speakership.
