The Charlie Kirk Show

It’s Election Day! The presidency may not be up for grabs, but plenty of important offices are, from the governor of Kentucky to the state legislature of Virginia. Charlie lays out the stakes and looks ahead to 2024, then is joined by Senator Ted Cruz to discuss his new book, ‘Unwoke.’ Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/support See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The GOP of old is disappearing, and a new one is being born in its place. But is this a permanent transformation, or just a product of the singular figure of Donald Trump? Pollster Patrick Ruffini helps Charlie assess whether any other conservatives can recreate the coalition that could carry Trump to victory in 2024. Plus, James Lawrence gives an update on the unjust imprisonment of meme-maker Do...

Tuesday is an election day in many states, and the most important elections are in Virginia, where the state senate and house of delegates are up for grabs. Can Glenn Youngkin topple the Democrats and create unified GOP control in a blue state? Or will the Democrats' "abortion and nothing else" strategy prevail? Kane of Citizen Free Press weighs in, and Israeli journalist Caroline Glick exposes th...

A new poll from the New York Times shows Donald Trump crushing Biden by 5-10 points in key swing states — and even more incredibly, he's doing it with a coalition of non-white voters. The left is panicking, the right is celebrating, but Charlie is cautious: He lays out why the poll shouldn't inspire overconfidence, but should instead motivate 12 months of hard work to ensure victory in 2024. Suppo...

Is America changing Ilhan Omar for the better, or is she changing America for the worse? This crucial question is the heart of Charlie's remarks at Missouri State University in Springfield. Because all men may be created equal, but not all cultures are, and if America is letting in an unlimited number of people from toxic cultures, the long-term effects will be devastating. Loving America, Charlie...

In this latest THOUGHTCRIME featuring Charlie Kirk, Jack Posobiec, Andrew Kolvet, and Blake Neff, the team explores pressing questions like:   -Are Ron DeSantis's boots the worst scandal in American history? World history? -Is Halloween dying because of immigration and declining American social trust? -Why is the birthrate collapsing pretty much everywhere on earth? Support the show: http://www.ch...

A prominent political dissident is being harassed through the courts, and faced the forced destruction of his entire business empire. No, it's not Putin's Russia: It's the Democrats in New York going after Donald Trump. Don Jr. joins Charlie to react to the latest happenings of the the world's most fraudulent "fraud" case, and Michael Seifert talks about the increasing growth of the non-woke "para...

Sam Bankman-Fried committed one of the biggest frauds in history — and gave a huge share of the proceeds to Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans. Now that he's been convicted, Charlie looks back on the ramifications of SBF's scam, from enriching left-wing activists to giving them control of the Senate. Then, he follows up with a demand: Why haven't the beneficiaries of SBF's largesse returned ever...

From Gaza to Iran to the West, fundamentalist Islam has repeatedly become a violent obstacle to stability, peace, and prosperity. But is Islam unfixable, or can it be reformed? Arizona House candidate and Muslim Zuhdi Jasser makes the case for a new reformed Islam that rejects medieval fundamentalism and embraces modernity, pluralism, and the “separation of mosque and state.” Support the show: htt...

Armenia has been Christian longer than any other country on Earth. Now, thousands of its people are in peril thanks to an ethnic cleansing push by its Muslim neighbor, Azerbaijan. Former Trump religious freedom ambassador Sam Brownback tells Charlie about what has become a forgotten "other" conflict in the Middle East. Plus, Andy Biggs discusses the decoupling of Israel and Ukraine funding, and Ch...

You know the press's mantras: "The most secure elections in history! Serious fraud never happens!" But now, those lies are dead, as a judge has ordered a complete election do-over due to fraud in a Democrat primary. Charlie dives into the whole story to uncover the domino effect this will have in the 2024 election. He also looks back on the disappointing career of Republican Ken Buck, and asks: Wa...

From the U.S. to Taiwan to South America, fewer and fewer children are being born all over the world. Is it lack of money, a change in values, or what? Alex Berenson joins Charlie to discuss his massively viral Substack post about how the world's rich countries are giving up on future generations.

Democrats know that Donald Trump can win in 2024, and the odds of him doing so are rising every day. So rather than try to beat Trump fairly, they're escalating their efforts to simply keep Trump off the ballot as an "insurrectionist." Mike Davis of the Article III project discusses a major bid to take out Trump in Colorado, which could soon be copied nationwide. Plus, Rep. Jim Jordan helps lay ou...

One year ago, Elon Musk bought Twitter and renamed it X. Now, America's politics is radically different: Free speech is back, and ideas that were once unthinkable are now boldly proclaimed to millions. Charlie explains why Musk's bold move is causing the Democrats' 2020 machine to crumble and has given the GOP its best hope of winning in 2024.

"Facts don't care about your feelings." It's a great line for winning men over to conservatism — but is it alienating women? Alex Clark and Charlie discuss a jarring poll where more than half of young women say that they don't want to date men who thinks there are two genders. What has made young women so extreme, and will it take new strategies to bring them back to reality? Support the show: htt...

In less than four years, home prices have surged by 50 percent or more in many American cities. Interest rates are more than double what they were during the Trump years. With house prices rapidly outpacing the wages of American workers, the world wonders: Will America's young people ever be able to afford a house like their parents and grandparents could? E.J. Antoni breaks down the impact of Was...

Just a year and a half ago, 90% of Americans supported unlimited aid to Ukraine. Only a tiny handful stood in opposition. Eighteen months later, Charlie has been vindicated, as a new Time story exposes the ongoing corruption and futility of the Ukraine war. Charlie looks back on how public opinion has evolved, and what it means for the future of Ukraine, America, and the world. Support the show: h...

Why does poverty still exist when the world is richer than ever? As author Theodore Dalrymple explains, it's not because of exploitation or "racism." Dalrymple has spent an entire lifetime observing the pathologies of the Western underclass. He explains how bad values and a lack of agency is locking people into a self-destructive "life at the bottom." Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/s...

A country becomes who it imports. That's Charlie's key message in this episode. Mass migration from Islamic countries to Europe is slowly but surely making Europe resemble the Islamic world — and as Nigel Farage warns, if the West doesn't change course, we will soon be "a conquered country." Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene discusses her push to censure Rashida Tlaib, and Charlie delivers a final eulog...

America is facing its worst crises in decades, but the capital's elites are currently looking ahead to their long holiday break. Enough. Charlie delivers  challenge to new Speaker Mike Johnson: Set a new tone by rejecting another continuing resolution, and forcing Washington to work until the border is fixed and a real budget is passed. Because if cops and ER doctors can work on Christmas, why can...

Hamas murders murders children en masse, rejects all peace overtures, and relentlessly lies. Yet the media constantly bolsters Hamas and repeats its narratives. Why? As Charlie explains to students at UT-San Antonio, it's for the same reason the media and the left support BLM. At the heart of leftism is a resentment culture, which sees the world as zero-sum and blames the wealthy and successful fo...
