Tucker Carlson Reveals the Religious Foundation Behind Charlie Kirk's Life and Political Philosophy

[00:00] But it means that every person is a

[00:02] human being with a divine spark inside.

[00:05] That is the core assumption of

[00:07] Christianity. And it was obvious when

[00:10] you watch Charlie Kirk that he believed

[00:11] that only someone who appreciates the

[00:14] person he's speaking to as an actual

[00:16] human being could speak that way. Bucker

[00:19] Carlson just revealed the truth as he

[00:22] sees it about Charlie Kirk's religious

[00:24] views. how they came to frame him as a

[00:26] person, how they informed his political

[00:29] ideology, and just how he treated people

[00:31] in general. So, let's get his take on

[00:33] this. Please like the video and

[00:34] subscribe to the channel. Last week,

[00:37] within just really minutes after Charlie

[00:39] Kirk was shot at that event in Utah, a

[00:42] kind of proxy war broke out over his

[00:45] memory. Who gets to own it? Who gets to

[00:47] use it? While the rest of us were still

[00:49] reeling in shock trying to figure out

[00:51] what happened, a ton of people appeared

[00:53] online, not just in this country, to

[00:55] tell you exactly what happened, exactly

[00:57] what it meant, and exactly what we

[01:00] should do next.

[01:02] And you can see why. With this level of

[01:05] emotion, rage, and grief in the air,

[01:08] it's pretty wise to leverage that much

[01:11] energy. It's almost like nuclear power.

[01:13] It can be used for good or bad. And a

[01:15] lot of people wanted to use it. There's

[01:17] no question about that. So they begin

[01:18] telling you Charlie died for this, he

[01:20] lived for this and he died for that. So

[01:23] the crazier reaches of the left, it was

[01:26] Charlie was a Nazi and the lesson is

[01:28] Nazis get killed. It makes sense. He was

[01:30] a bad guy who got what he deserved. And

[01:32] a lot of them said that out out loud.

[01:34] Certain parts of the right immediately

[01:36] told you that actually this was about

[01:38] something completely different. You

[01:39] know, Charlie died for Israel. Many

[01:41] began to say the prime minister of

[01:42] Israel said that and so did a lot of

[01:44] other people. Charlie was a defender of

[01:46] Israel, which he was, by the way, and

[01:48] therefore he died for that cause.

[01:52] But none of these explanations, all

[01:54] self- serving, are really satisfactory.

[01:55] They don't capture who Charlie Kirk was.

[01:57] And on some basic level, they're

[01:59] dishonest. Yeah, that's one of the

[02:02] things I noticed that I disdain so much

[02:04] about this story is that there were so

[02:06] many preconceived pre-manufactured

[02:08] narratives from people on all sides of

[02:10] the political aisle specifically because

[02:13] they thought that they could use that

[02:14] angle to propagandize people to giving

[02:17] power to the state to weaponize it

[02:19] against their enemies. on the left. You

[02:22] know, there were people that were

[02:24] celebrating this death, saying it was

[02:26] great and that the shooter, he had to

[02:27] have been a Groper or a Trump supporter

[02:30] or something like that. You know, a

[02:32] Trump supporter or a Charlie Kirk

[02:34] supporter shooting Charlie Kirk didn't

[02:36] make sense. On the right, you saw some

[02:38] of the same propensities. On the right,

[02:39] you had people that said that this had

[02:41] to be a trans individual. You know, we

[02:44] know that the guy that they apprehended

[02:46] was partners with a trans individual.

[02:49] that was his lover for sure. But then

[02:51] some people on the right calling for

[02:53] civil war. So there was so many bad

[02:54] narratives about this. So I couldn't

[02:56] agree with Tucker and those certainly

[02:59] don't capture who Kirk was regardless of

[03:01] whether you agreed with him or not.

[03:02] >> Charlie was not a Nazi. He was not

[03:04] killed because he was a Nazi. Yes, he

[03:06] was a defender of Israel. He didn't die

[03:08] for Israel. However, why did he die?

[03:11] What was his life about? What was the

[03:14] sin, the core sin that Charlie Kirk

[03:16] committed against somebody? power that

[03:19] got him killed in the end. And the

[03:21] answer is right in front of us,

[03:23] certainly those of us who knew him.

[03:24] Charlie's life was defined by his

[03:27] Christian faith. Not his spirituality,

[03:29] but his belief in Jesus. His life as a

[03:32] Christian. Everything in his life flowed

[03:34] from those beliefs. Everything.

[03:36] Everything he did, said, and believed

[03:38] came from the fact that he was above all

[03:40] a Christian. And this comes off if you

[03:43] see him, even if you're not familiar,

[03:45] time and time again, he wore

[03:46] Christianity on his sleeve. He was proud

[03:49] to proclaim the name of Jesus, say he

[03:51] was a Christian, saying he believed that

[03:54] it was the life and the truth and the

[03:56] way, and that's from the Bible.

[03:58] Certainly, you would take that from many

[04:00] of his appearances. And he wasn't

[04:02] ashamed about it, and he got a lot of

[04:04] flack from some circles for it, but that

[04:06] is the truth. That's how he represented

[04:08] himself. And he cited many of his

[04:10] beliefs, you know, on principles that go

[04:13] far deeper than politics. They went to

[04:15] his religious beliefs and what they

[04:17] meant. You know, the fact that mankind

[04:19] has natural law and we have gifts from

[04:21] God that government shouldn't strip

[04:23] away. This was a focal point of Charlie

[04:26] Kirk. Again, whether or not you

[04:27] disagreed with them or agreed with them.

[04:29] I had my own disagreements with them,

[04:30] but that's just the truth. And that is

[04:34] and was and in fact has always been

[04:37] deeply provocative and offensive to the

[04:40] rest of the world. And why is that? It's

[04:43] worth thinking about it for just a

[04:44] second. Christianity doesn't seem like

[04:46] the kind of religion that provoked

[04:47] people to anger and violence. In fact,

[04:48] it seems just the opposite. It's the

[04:51] world's most profoundly nonviolent

[04:53] religion. Maybe the world's only truly

[04:54] nonviolent religion. A religion based on

[04:58] a man who Christians believe was also

[05:00] God. who as he was being led away to be

[05:03] tortured to death on madeup charges

[05:06] scolded one of his disciples for

[05:08] fighting back.

[05:10] Yeah. As to whether Christianity is the

[05:11] only nonviolent religion, well, a

[05:14] religion is just a set of adherence and

[05:17] there are sets of adherence in any

[05:19] religion that commit atrocities. You

[05:21] know, you can say, well, they're

[05:22] perverting the doctrine, just like, you

[05:25] know, representatives in the United

[05:27] States, presidents violate the

[05:29] Constitution, you know, so you can say

[05:32] Christianity is a non-violent religion.

[05:34] I tend to believe that, too. I think the

[05:36] gospel makes that message clear, but you

[05:39] can't say that there haven't been

[05:40] Christians committing atrocities. It's

[05:42] not what Tucker's saying. Don't want to

[05:44] get me wrong here, but it's weird to

[05:46] say, I think in a way that, you know,

[05:49] religions are nonviolent if you're going

[05:52] to include people of religions and

[05:54] noticing that people of all religions

[05:56] commit crimes. Again, know that Tucker's

[05:58] not saying it that way, but I'm sure you

[06:00] could provide a lot of examples from

[06:02] other religions that they would claim to

[06:05] be peaceful and nonviolent, too, and

[06:07] that people that defy that are acting

[06:09] against those doctrines. This is a

[06:11] religion committed to love above all and

[06:14] to living in peace and harmony truly.

[06:17] It's a universalist religion that

[06:18] believes that every person has a shot at

[06:21] heaven. It's not exclusionary at all.

[06:23] And so, you would think it would make

[06:25] sense that if you're a government or if

[06:27] you're in power that you'd want a lot of

[06:28] Christians living in your country

[06:30] because they're not going to cause

[06:31] massive problems. Not a lot of sincere

[06:34] Christians are fermenting insurrection

[06:35] at any given moment. Pretty much none

[06:38] most of the time.

[06:40] They're tidy. They get married. They

[06:43] love their children. They pay their

[06:44] taxes. They're commanded to pay their

[06:46] taxes. So, why wouldn't you want a

[06:47] nation full of Christians? Why wouldn't

[06:48] you don't agree with that? He's, you

[06:51] know, I'm assuming he's going to cite,

[06:52] you know, Romans 13 to say that, but uh

[06:58] or the example in the Bible where Jesus

[07:00] said, "Render unto Caesars's what

[07:01] Caesars's, and render unto God what is

[07:03] God's." But in nowhere does he say that

[07:06] government is entitled to taxation. In

[07:08] fact, he was placed in a hard spot

[07:10] between those that wanted him to say

[07:12] something that would have riled up

[07:14] animosities against him and his

[07:17] Christians uh faith and something

[07:20] between other dynamics. And he said

[07:23] neither. It was a way to escape a

[07:25] predicament he had been placed in. So I

[07:27] I don't agree that the Bible says that

[07:29] you have to pay your taxes and no one's

[07:31] been able to substantiate that to me.

[07:34] >> Encourage this religious belief even if

[07:36] it wasn't yours. Why would you hate it?

[07:39] Well, there are a couple of reasons.

[07:40] There are a couple of things about

[07:42] Christianity, and these were evident

[07:43] throughout Charlie's public life that

[07:45] are deeply provocative to the people in

[07:48] power. And the first is the insistence

[07:51] that Christianity comes with inherently

[07:54] that you are not God. You are not God

[07:56] and neither are your leaders. God is God

[07:59] and all of us stand before him in the

[08:01] end to be judged and all of us will be

[08:04] found lacking. Christians believe the

[08:06] only way to heaven is through Jesus.

[08:07] That's the only way.

[08:09] But all of us, whether we believe in

[08:11] Jesus or not, are fallen. We are

[08:13] sinners. We are less than we ought to

[08:15] be. We are not gods. And neither are the

[08:18] people who lead us. And this has a lot

[08:21] of implications. The first being if

[08:22] you're not God, you don't get to do

[08:24] whatever you want. There are limits.

[08:26] There are rules that you didn't write

[08:28] that you have to abide by. That's not a

[08:31] judgment. That's a statement of fact.

[08:33] Some call it natural law. It's been the

[08:35] basis of every functioning society since

[08:37] the beginning of time.

[08:39] >> Agreed. And if you want the best book on

[08:40] natural law, look no further than John

[08:43] Lock's two treatises on government. The

[08:45] second volume is the best reading on

[08:48] natural law. Note that Kirk cited

[08:50] Lockach from time to time. And you know,

[08:53] natural law is above earthly law. If

[08:56] Parliament legislated it, they can't

[08:58] make the world flat. There's certain

[09:01] things that we can't do. We're not the

[09:03] authors of the universe. That God was

[09:05] the author of our freedoms. At least

[09:08] according to Charlie Kirk, according to

[09:09] Tucker, according to a lot of

[09:11] Christians. Now, if you don't believe in

[09:13] God, there are people that believe in

[09:14] natural law just as an extension of our

[09:16] own humanity. I don't want to leave them

[09:18] out too. I just want to note that.

[09:20] >> But the basis of our society is the

[09:22] Christian understanding of justice,

[09:25] which flows from that belief. You are

[09:28] not God. God is. He writes the most

[09:31] basic rules. You abide by them. Period.

[09:33] That's the basis of our law. That's the

[09:35] basis of Western law. And that is a

[09:38] threat, a challenge to people who would

[09:41] ignore the limits on their behavior.

[09:43] Very much including our leaders and very

[09:44] much including the most powerful people

[09:46] in our society whether they're elected

[09:48] or not.

[09:49] >> Yeah, that's the norm. Violating laws of

[09:52] nature and individual rights that we

[09:54] have. Most of the time it happens

[09:56] through majority rule vote. And I'm with

[09:58] Hans Herman Hapa. Democracy is in many

[10:01] ways, at least as it manifests in our

[10:03] society, a god that failed. It's not

[10:07] God. It's not authoritative. There's

[10:09] nothing about getting 51% of the

[10:11] populace to vote some way that moralizes

[10:13] an activity. You get 51% of the populace

[10:16] to, you know, seize all the assets of

[10:19] someone you're jealous of and

[10:20] redistribute it to you. If you can get

[10:23] that done, it doesn't moralize it. The

[10:25] only thing that moralizes behavior is

[10:27] volunteerism. The ability for two

[10:29] individuals to consent to an exchange,

[10:32] to an arrangement, to any other thing.

[10:35] Nobody wants to be told you're not

[10:36] allowed to do something. And

[10:38] Christianity inherently tells people

[10:41] that. Doesn't judge them. It just states

[10:43] it clearly. No, you do not have the

[10:46] power to kill except possibly in

[10:47] self-defense. But you can't just go

[10:49] killing people. And you can't go killing

[10:52] people because, and this is the second

[10:53] thing about Christianity that tends to

[10:55] set the teeth of the powerful on edge.

[10:58] Christianity insists that every human

[11:01] being is created by God. Every single

[11:05] one. And that means that every human

[11:06] being has a soul, a distinct unique soul

[11:10] created by God. It is once again the

[11:14] only true universalist faith there is.

[11:18] And the New Testament is the story of

[11:20] this an underread collection of books.

[11:23] That is not the story of the Old

[11:24] Testament is very much the story of the

[11:26] New Testament. In the New Testament, all

[11:28] people are God's chosen. Every single

[11:31] one. And the story itself makes that

[11:33] point. Yeah. Christ fulfilled the old

[11:36] law. He didn't abolish it. He fulfilled

[11:38] it. And now under the new covenant, all

[11:41] people have the ability to follow Christ

[11:43] and receive salvation for it. None of us

[11:45] are deserving of it under these tenants

[11:48] because mankind is fallen. We sin. You

[11:51] know, everyone does it. Even Christians

[11:53] do sin. But becoming a Christian means

[11:55] you set your life in a different

[11:57] direction and you don't fall for the

[12:00] follyies of your past. You do your best

[12:01] to steer clear from them. Even though to

[12:04] some extent it's unavoidable, but you

[12:06] have to make penance for it. That is the

[12:08] root idea behind this. The founder of

[12:12] most Christian churches in the early

[12:15] near east was a former Pharisee, a Jew

[12:18] who was in charge of killing Christians

[12:20] until he famously met Jesus on the road

[12:22] to Damascus. His name was Saul. He

[12:24] became Paul and he is the most prolific

[12:26] author in the New Testament and the

[12:28] basis of a lot of Christian theology.

[12:30] And his life tells the story. People can

[12:33] change no matter what they look like, no

[12:35] matter what they previously believe, no

[12:37] matter where they're from, no matter

[12:38] what language they speak, because they

[12:40] are created by God. And every person,

[12:43] every single person, whether you like

[12:45] them or their relatives or the way they

[12:46] look or not, has that chance because all

[12:50] were created by God and all were loved

[12:52] by God. Yeah, man. I'm so glad he used

[12:55] this example. And if you watch this

[12:56] channel, you know I make reference to

[12:58] Paul all the time and a redemption arc,

[13:01] something that proves that anyone can

[13:03] obtain salvation, whether they're Jew or

[13:06] Gentile. That's what the New Testament

[13:08] was about. And that was pretty radical

[13:10] to the Pharisees. The idea that there

[13:12] wasn't, you know, this chosen group on

[13:15] the basis of ethnicity anymore, on the

[13:18] basis of those that were part of that

[13:22] nation, the Jewish people. And a lot of

[13:24] people in the Bible cite like this

[13:25] covenant with Abram where he's saying

[13:27] that, you know, curse those who curse

[13:30] you and bless those who bless you. They

[13:33] insert Israel there when Israel didn't

[13:35] exist. Even the classical kingdom of

[13:37] Israel, there weren't any Jews. There

[13:39] wasn't Israelis whatsoever at that time.

[13:43] Some of the descendants of Abram, later

[13:45] Abraham did were Jews, but that's not

[13:47] what the passage says. So, you know, the

[13:50] gospel belongs to all. That's a message

[13:52] of the Bible. That is the basis of

[13:54] Christianity. That's the Christian

[13:55] story. And so a sincere Christian

[13:58] proceeds with that belief. There is no

[14:01] tribalism in Christianity. There is no

[14:04] identity politics. It's the opposite.

[14:07] You may prefer to be with people who

[14:09] look like you. That's fine. But God

[14:12] doesn't prefer to be with people who

[14:13] look like you. God prefers to be with

[14:14] all people because he created all

[14:16] people. He's the God of the universe,

[14:19] not just of the people you like.

[14:22] That's true. Although I hate to say

[14:24] there is a lot of tribalism in

[14:25] Christianity. How many denominations are

[14:27] there with vastly different views and

[14:31] things like that, but I get the point

[14:32] he's getting at. It's not supposed to be

[14:34] that way. There is supposed to be a

[14:36] defined standard by which we live, how

[14:39] we worship, how we treat others, etc. I

[14:41] won't delve into all those differences

[14:43] here, but I'm I hate to say there are

[14:45] some elements of a lot of different

[14:47] forms and flavors of Christianity that

[14:49] are extremely tribal. And if you think

[14:51] politics is, you know, bitter and and

[14:55] full of animus, just debate theology

[14:58] amongst Christians of different sex, go

[15:00] to those forums. You'll see what I mean.

[15:02] >> And that again has massive implications

[15:05] for the way that sincere Christians live

[15:07] and for the way that Charlie Kirk lived

[15:08] his life. And the first is if other

[15:12] people have souls, if they like you,

[15:15] were created by God, then they have

[15:17] freedom of conscience.

[15:19] You can tell them what they ought to

[15:20] think, but you can't make them. You can

[15:23] tell them what they ought to say, but

[15:24] you can't force them. Christianity does

[15:27] not convert by the sword. It can't. It

[15:30] requires free will. And it requires free

[15:32] will because it respects the individual

[15:36] conscience emanating from the distinct

[15:37] soul of every human being.

[15:40] Couldn't agree more. It's based on

[15:42] volunteerism. And we have that choice.

[15:44] There are some people that believe in,

[15:46] you know, predestinationism, the idea

[15:48] that, you know, God picked the people

[15:50] that will be saved and, you know,

[15:53] there's no way to change that. But I

[15:54] don't believe that. That's that's

[15:56] Calvinism. And Calvinistic beliefs are

[15:59] derived from that that core. But yeah,

[16:02] I'm with Tucker here. And that is why in

[16:04] the west which is based on Christianity,

[16:07] our civilization is a Christian

[16:09] civilization tattered though it

[16:11] currently is. Collective punishment

[16:14] hurting people for the sins of their

[16:17] relatives

[16:18] is unthinkable. It's a crime because

[16:22] each person will stand alone as he was

[16:25] made before God and every person is

[16:29] equal before God fundamentally. doesn't

[16:33] mean each person is equal in his

[16:35] ability. It doesn't mean each per person

[16:36] is equal in the choices he makes. Of

[16:38] course not. But it means that every

[16:41] person is a human being with a divine

[16:43] spark inside. Yeah. I'm glad he made

[16:46] that distinction because we're not

[16:48] supposed to ascribe equality in regard

[16:51] to equal outcomes or equal abilities,

[16:54] equal skill sets, equal moral

[16:57] culpability for evils. For instance, you

[17:00] know, comparing Ted Bundy to a young

[17:02] child, you'd see an obvious moral

[17:04] difference between those two. But at the

[17:07] same time, we are equal before God in

[17:09] the sense that we can all obtain

[17:11] salvation through Christ. That's the

[17:13] idea here. I'm glad, really glad he made

[17:15] that distinction.

[17:16] >> That is the core assumption of

[17:18] Christianity. And it was obvious when

[17:20] you watch Charlie Kirk that he believed

[17:22] that. Charlie's been famously quoted for

[17:25] the last couple of days saying he

[17:26] abhores anti-semitism. That is

[17:28] absolutely right. And he did. He said

[17:29] that in public and he said it very often

[17:30] in private. He meant it too. But he

[17:32] abhored racism and bigotry on the basis

[17:36] of genetics of all kinds because he was

[17:39] a Christian and he believed that God

[17:41] created each person. Now why is this a

[17:45] problem for temporal authorities? Why is

[17:47] it a problem for the people in power?

[17:49] Because once again it circumscribes what

[17:52] they can do. It sets a limit on their

[17:55] powers. If God created each person,

[17:58] including the infuriating, annoying,

[18:01] disastrously wrong person I'm talking

[18:03] to, then I can't force him to repeat my

[18:05] creed. I'm not in charge of his

[18:08] conscience. Only he is.

[18:11] And that is a limit. So when Charlie

[18:14] Kirk said, "I believe in free speech,"

[18:16] he didn't simply believe in free speech

[18:18] because it was in the Bill of Rights. He

[18:20] understood that it was in the Bill of

[18:22] Rights because it's in the New

[18:23] Testament. He understood that's a right

[18:25] that comes from God bestowed on all of

[18:27] us at birth. And he felt his job, his

[18:31] duty was not simply to protect it, but

[18:33] to live it. That's right. And what

[18:36] Tucker said about collective punishment,

[18:37] I think, is so right, too. But that

[18:40] should dispel some of the terrible

[18:41] responses to this tragedy, by the way,

[18:43] with Alex Jones getting there the day

[18:46] after saying that the Democrats killed

[18:49] Charlie Kirk, the left has killed

[18:51] Charlie Kirk. That's collective guilt

[18:54] association. That's trying to say that

[18:57] like a huge swath of the populace is

[19:00] responsible for this death. That's the

[19:02] worst message you can possibly bring.

[19:04] That will pit neighbor against neighbor

[19:07] when the vile nature of this crime was

[19:09] confined to this kid or a very small

[19:11] group of collaborators. We don't have

[19:13] all the details, I don't think, yet, but

[19:15] certainly just this kid and maybe some

[19:18] others. Who knows who was involved? We

[19:19] talked about that in other videos. It's

[19:21] not to ascribe that atrocity to the

[19:24] entire left. Same thing when it comes to

[19:27] the left doing this to the right.

[19:29] Calling people insurrectionists. The

[19:31] entire MAGA movement for favoring Trump.

[19:34] You're an insurrectionist now. This is

[19:36] how they divide people against each

[19:38] other while they continue to spend

[19:40] endlessly. You know, funneling your

[19:42] money into the pockets of Lockheed

[19:44] Martin and JP Morgan and Fizer. This is

[19:47] how they expand the surveillance state

[19:49] with pal and tier now in lock step. This

[19:52] is how they plunge us into endless wars.

[19:54] That is the mentality. But that's not

[19:57] true. That's just propaganda. It's just

[19:58] collectivism on a mass political scale

[20:01] to show people what that looks like. And

[20:05] I just want to play of the many clips we

[20:06] could play of Charlie Kirk on college

[20:07] campuses. He spent his whole life

[20:10] worn out most of the time. Uh as an

[20:12] older man, I often said to him, "How the

[20:14] hell do you get on plane after plane

[20:15] after plane?" But he felt an evangelical

[20:17] duty, small evangelical duty to do it,

[20:20] to get out there and talk to people.

[20:22] Why? Not simply to build a coalition or

[20:24] get this or that person elected, but

[20:27] because he believed as a Christian that

[20:31] convincing people voluntarily with words

[20:35] in the beginning was the word and the

[20:37] word was with God and the word was God.

[20:40] So, the Gospel of John begins, "Words

[20:43] are the key to winning people's minds

[20:46] and their souls."

[20:49] And he really meant this. He wasn't just

[20:51] repeating the words. He meant it. And it

[20:54] was obvious in the way that he

[20:55] interacted with people who disagree with

[20:57] him and people who hated him. Here's one

[20:59] clip that tells part of the story. Would

[21:02] you want someone who is not necessarily

[21:05] stable or ready to bring a child into

[21:08] this world and provide that child the

[21:10] life it deserves? Would you want them to

[21:12] still bring that child into the world?

[21:14] >> Without a doubt. Every every life has a

[21:16] moral obligation to be able to live.

[21:18] >> If I can't give that child the life it

[21:22] deserves, why am I bringing it to

[21:24] >> Got it. No, this is this will be my last

[21:27] question. I I want you to think about

[21:29] it. If a single mom has two

[21:31] two-year-olds, twins, and she wakes up

[21:33] one day and says, "I can't do it

[21:34] anymore. I can't give them the life they

[21:35] deserve."

[21:36] >> But that's just not the circumstance.

[21:37] >> Hold on. Should she be able to take out

[21:39] a shotgun and kill both those kids?

[21:40] >> No.

[21:41] >> Of course not. Because you think that

[21:42] would be objectionable. That's why I

[21:44] think it's objectionable to eliminate

[21:45] two babies that are 6 weeks old cuz

[21:47] they're morally the same thing.

[21:49] >> One just happens to be bigger. One just

[21:52] happens to be older. One just happens to

[21:54] be outside of the womb. They're both

[21:56] human beings. And you have something in

[21:58] you that says, "No way isn't okay to

[21:59] kill a 2-year-old." That's called your

[22:01] soul talking.

[22:03] >> You have something in you that tells you

[22:05] the truth. You can call it instinct if

[22:08] you like. Charlie Kirk referred to it as

[22:09] the soul, but both mean the same thing.

[22:13] You have the spark of the divine, God's

[22:16] spark inside you, and it reacts. It

[22:18] hums. It vibrates like a tuning fork.

[22:20] And you know on a basic animal level,

[22:23] like your dog knows when something is

[22:25] wrong. You can feel it. And the whole

[22:27] purpose of modern society, it seems

[22:29] sometime, is to get the rest of us to

[22:32] ignore what we know. That vibration

[22:34] inside us that tells us the truth

[22:36] always. It never lies to us. This is why

[22:39] in many states they try to prevent

[22:40] people from sharing ultrasounds with

[22:43] women that are pregnant, you know, for

[22:45] people to provide that to them even at

[22:48] cost to them because they know that once

[22:50] they see it, they would be less likely

[22:52] to abort. And I know there's going to be

[22:54] people on different sides of this issue

[22:55] on this channel. I seek not to divide

[22:58] them on this over this when we have much

[23:01] more in common on foreign policy and the

[23:03] wars and debt and things like that. But

[23:06] I do tend to agree with that mentality.

[23:09] I do tend to agree that life is sacred

[23:11] and it's not just something that you

[23:13] give the government the power to

[23:14] delineate lines and just say that this

[23:18] is no longer a person because it they'll

[23:20] say it's not viable. But no child that's

[23:22] born is viable. They need care. They

[23:24] need love. They need food. They need

[23:26] shelter. And you know, you could say

[23:29] like the mentally or people

[23:31] born with dehabilitating injuries aren't

[23:34] viable. They couldn't survive on their

[23:36] own. But those are no less people, too.

[23:38] So, there's a real point behind this.

[23:40] >> Charlie did not ignore that. And you'll

[23:42] notice that in the end, he appealed to

[23:44] it with that young woman. He didn't

[23:45] scream, "You're a murderer in his face."

[23:47] Though he considered abortion murder,

[23:49] which it is. He felt that deeply. This

[23:52] wasn't a performance. He wasn't, you

[23:53] know, another nonprofit phony in DC,

[23:57] feigning outrage about something. He

[23:58] really believed that taking innocent

[24:01] life was wrong. In the womb or in

[24:04] crowded cities, anywhere. He thought it

[24:06] was wrong because his faith tells him

[24:08] it's wrong. And because his conscience

[24:10] confirms that belief and so does yours

[24:12] and so did hers. So did all of ours. We

[24:15] know when something is wrong. And the

[24:18] people above us shouted us, "No, really,

[24:21] there's an explanation for it. That's

[24:22] just your super ego barking at you." No,

[24:26] you know in your heart deep inside what

[24:30] every person has known, and that is the

[24:32] murder of innocents is a crime. It's a

[24:35] moral crime.

[24:36] >> And that's why I think there's so many

[24:38] hypocrites on the right that are just

[24:40] willing to, you know, lean into this

[24:42] Israel first narrative that this

[24:44] administration wants to put forward.

[24:45] It's not that different from Biden in

[24:47] many ways. Being so beholden to the

[24:49] Israel lobby and looking the other way

[24:51] about the genocide in Gaza, you're going

[24:54] to just ignore that and then attend a

[24:56] prolife rally the next day preaching the

[24:58] pro-life message about children in the

[25:00] womb, but not children in Gaza. You

[25:04] know, that's Hamas. That's Hamas's

[25:06] fault. That literally is what a large

[25:08] amount of Zionists believe. And I think

[25:10] that is so pernicious and hypocritical

[25:13] and wrongheaded. And it's something that

[25:15] I'll expose just as much as I'll expose

[25:18] any other thing in this channel. And if

[25:20] there's one message that you take away

[25:21] from this video, if you're watching me,

[25:23] maybe you're a newer viewer, it's that

[25:25] we don't accept that someone can be

[25:27] pro-life and support the endless wars

[25:30] across the world, bankrolled by the US

[25:32] taxpayer on behalf of Israel and support

[25:35] what Israel is doing in Gaza in any way

[25:38] imaginable and let them get away with it

[25:40] with excuses, look the other way, and

[25:42] not even try to use US leverage to stop

[25:44] it.

[25:45] >> That girl knew it. And in the end, that

[25:47] was Charlie's appeal. Listen to that

[25:50] divine spark inside you. Listen to your

[25:52] soul speak to you. Turn off the music.

[25:56] Get off the drugs. Push the

[25:58] distractions, which it's hard to believe

[26:00] aren't actually designed to crowd out

[26:02] that humming inside us. And be still for

[26:05] a moment and accept what you already

[26:08] know, what you were born knowing. Listen

[26:10] to that.

[26:12] Only someone who appreciates the person

[26:15] he's speaking to as an actual human

[26:17] being could speak that way. Notice how

[26:20] rare that is.

[26:22] Yeah, it is rare. And Charlie

[26:23] represented that. You know, there's a

[26:25] lot of people that had a lot of

[26:26] problems, took a lot of issue with

[26:28] things he said. Don't think he

[26:30] represented certain things, right? you

[26:32] know, on George Floyd or the trans

[26:35] activists and things like that, but he

[26:38] really did believe in free speech. And

[26:40] say what you want about Charlie Kirk,

[26:42] man, right or wrong, he really did

[26:44] believe it. He really did that the

[26:45] believe that the big societal issues

[26:48] that are pertinent to us, that are

[26:50] relevant to us, that can change our

[26:52] world one way or the other should be

[26:54] debated openly and honestly. He had

[26:57] those debates. He had those debates with

[26:58] people that absolutely hated him in many

[27:00] cases. He had those debates standing

[27:03] strong and firm, you know, sometimes

[27:05] being very adamant and loud about his

[27:08] beliefs, but always letting someone take

[27:10] the microphone. Take the microphone

[27:12] against me. Meet me here so that we

[27:14] don't fight over there. That's what his

[27:16] mantra was. That's what his message was.

[27:18] And it was rooted in religious faith.

[27:21] Again, I've shared a lot of what I don't

[27:23] agree with Charlie on tariffs, on, you

[27:25] know, being a China hawk, doubling down

[27:28] on the genocide in Gaza, saying that the

[27:30] pictures coming out of there were all

[27:32] lies. It was Hamas propaganda, saying no

[27:34] starvation took place in Gaza. That's

[27:36] what he did on July 29th in a video he

[27:38] posted on Twitter. But all those things

[27:42] notwithstanding, he did wear Jesus

[27:44] Christ on his sleeve. He proclaimed his

[27:46] name proudly to audiences that wouldn't

[27:48] receive that well necessarily. And he

[27:51] met his end doing what he was best at

[27:53] and that's what he did. But you know,

[27:56] whatever you have to say about him, that

[27:58] was rooted in religious faith, the

[28:00] ability to discern good from evil,

[28:03] having a intuition for natural law and

[28:06] instincts that bind us as humans

[28:08] regardless of how we see issues like

[28:11] abortion. So, I'm really glad about this

[28:13] video. I think Tucker did a very good

[28:14] job portraying his beliefs and why these

[28:18] things are important and what Charlie

[28:19] stood for. But I do want to hear from

[28:21] you. Do you agree with this conception

[28:22] of Charlie Kirk? Do you agree with these

[28:24] ideas? Is Tucker right? Is Tucker wrong?
