My guest today is Andrew Kolvet, who was Kirk’s close confidant. Since the assassination, he’s taken on many of Kirk’s responsibilities, including hosting “The Charlie Kirk Show.” Andrew Kolvet: …“Now, Charlie’s mission was to say: Hey, before us are two roads. You can either go grievance politics, socialism, free stuff populism, Mangione-ism, Mamdani-ism, or you can go MAGA.“ …“I think this is the through line for Israel — is you do not have to support Israel to belong to the team, at least in a traditional historical sense…I’m an American. I’m born in this country. My kids are going to...

VIDEOIt's on! The European Union vs Elon Musk. The battle began when the EU demanded that X (forever to be known as Twitter) bow down to its censorship regime by paying a 120 million Euro fine. However, the EU may have bit off more than it can chew because it is also trying to extend its censorship to TikTok and Apple and they are also refusing to comply. How will this war end? Will the EU be able to impose its censorship on the rest of the world? Stay tuned!

US District Judges James Boasberg and Deborah Boardman have both turned down invitations to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Both invoked their Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. "Look," Boasberg said. "The title of the hearing session is 'Impeachment: Holding Rogue Judges Accountable.' We don't want to be held accountable. We're both members of a separate but equal branch of the government. Congress can't force us to be accountable to them." Senate Committee on the Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassly (R-Iowa) pointed out that "both of these judges have exercised powers that they do not have to thwart federal law and...

So far in 2025, the state of New York has released nearly 7,000 illegal migrant criminals from its jails and prisons and set them loose on society. For every one of them ICE had filed active detainers with state authorities. The crimes for which these criminals were incarcerated included attempted murder, thousands of assaults, and hundreds of burglaries, robberies, drug offenses, weapons offenses and sexual predatory offenses. Currently, 7,113 illegal migrants with active ICE detainers are currently being held New York's prisons and jails. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is demanding they be turned over to them for deportation...

Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill) railed against the Department of Transportation (DOT) proposal to give $10,000 bonuses to only the air traffic controllers and FAA technicians who worked everyday without pay during the government shutdown. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has announced a similar bonus for TSA screeners who worked all of their assigned shifts during the government shutdown. "It's not fair to the thousands of other government employees who for one reason or another opted not to work without pay," Duckworth complained. "The problem with these selective bonuses is that it weakens the solidarity that labor unions need...

Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Technologies, and his wife Susan are donating $6.25 billion to fund investment accounts for 25 million American children. "It's designed to help families feel supported from the start and encourage them to keep saving and investing as their children grow," Michael said. "We know that when children have accounts like this, they're much more likely to graduate from high school, from college, buy a home, start a business and less likely to be incarcerated." Their donation will be coordinated with a new federal government program that allows parents to open tax-advantaged investment accounts...

VIDEOIs Dasha Burns of Politico planning on doing what many non-narrative journalists have already done and go independent? The question has to be asked because during her newly released interview with President Donald Trump she AGREED with him on immigration, specifically on the stark contrast between Trump shutting down the border versus Third World immigrants that continue to flood Europe. It was so surprising to hear her agreeing with Trump on this that upon first hearing this I thought it was due to a wax buildup in my ears that I have an upcoming clinic appointment to get flushed out.How...

VATICAN CITY — Catholics and Protestants around the world expressed concern this week, as Pope Leo XVI gave his recommendation that Christians pray the rosary while facing in the direction of Mecca. The pontiff made the proclamation after visiting Turkey and Lebanon, stating that not only should the West be less fearful of the spread of Islam, but all Christians should seek to live more peaceably by facing toward the holiest of Islamic sites when they pray the rosary. "This is an important step toward helping the Muslims conquer us all," Pope Leo said. "I do not think that Christians...

Hundreds of social service workers at the Minnesota Department of Human Services have identified Gov. Tim Walz (D) as the reason why fraudsters were able to steal over one billion dollars of public funds intended to feed the hungry, saying "Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota. We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud. Instead, he systematically retaliated against whistleblowers and did his best to discredit fraud reports. Meanwhile the perpetrators of the Feeding Our Future fraud scheme stole the money that was supposed to feed children during...

VIDEORichard Gere opened up his piehole recently at the Guadalajara International Book Fair in Mexico and blasted President Trump by claiming he was "deeply ashamed" of him. He then went on to praise Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum for somehow being able to tame Trump as if he were some kind of wild animal. Mr. Gerbil is obviously completely ignorant of Mexican politics because Sheinbaum is now widely despised in Mexico because she has declared herself unable to do a thing to fight the cartels that plague that country. This attitude about Sheinbaum was on full display for Gere because a...

In a test, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) created 20 fake applications for Obamacare subsidies. Despite the absence of documentation to verify that the Social Security numbers (SSN), citizenship, and reported incomes were valid, 18 of the applications were approved for a total of $10,000 per month subsidies. Other avenues for fraud included subsidies for dead people and multiple subsidies to identical SSNs--one of which was linked to 125 insurance policies and an aggregate coverage of 26,000 days in one year. These subsidies were paid to insurance companies on behalf of the fictitious and deceased individuals--none of whom ever filed...

VIDEOThe only thing worse than an incompetent FBI official is an FBI official who is incompetent on purpose so as to avoid identifying a suspect that he doesn't want to be identified. Such was the case with the former assistant director of the FBI DC field office Steven D'Antuono who LIED to Congress about the pipe bomber's cell phone data supposedly having been corrupted when it wasn't.So when will D'Antuono be indicted for LYING to Congress?

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — Amid national outrage over Somali immigrants in Minneapolis raping people all the time, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz held a press conference to assure concerned citizens that not all Somali rapists are bad people. "I'm friends with a lot of Somali rapists, and they really aren't all bad," said Walz while prancing back and forth across the stage to the delight of his voters in the press. "Somali rapists are some of the nicest, smartest, most polite people I know, and many of them contribute to the economy somehow. Anyone who is prejudiced against them should be ashamed...

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — A remake of the popular 2001 war film Black Hawk Down was reportedly in development at Columbia Pictures, with producers eyeing downtown Minneapolis as the primary filming location. "I got stuck there on a layover once, and I thought I'd landed in Somalia, but it was just Minnesota," producer Jerry Bruckheimer said. "I've never been more scared in my entire life. And I'm from Detroit." The original film, based on the true story of two U.S. military Black Hawk helicopters that were shot down during the Battle of Mogadishu during the Somali Civil War, was filmed using...

VIDEOApparently Klaus Schwab owns nothing and he is NOT happy. Otherwise why would the former head of the WEF act like a common TV pitchman for his Academy grift. Schwab is definitely giving off Vince Offer vibes with the difference that the latter TV pitchman offers better products.The big question is how did Schwab go broke to the extent that he is now definitely grifting with his dopey Academy? My guess is he blew all the money he scammed at WEF via some crypto that went bust or got suckered into pouring his grift money into some futuristic scheme that...

Hanover County Animal Protection says the raccoon "ransacked" the store before passing out next to the toilet. "Officer Martin safely secured our masked bandit and transported him back to the shelter to sober up before questioning," Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter said in a statement.
