The Charlie Kirk Show

A Chinese spy balloon the size of three Greyhound buses hovers over middle America, and the U.S. military is doing nothing to shoot it down. Is it impotence, or appeasement, or what? Charlie explores that, and then goes further, wondering why America does so little to stop Chinese spies from infesting U.S. colleges, tech companies, and intelligence agencies. After decades of China plundering America at will, is there even anything left for them to steal?Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The latest artificial intelligence advances are turning science fiction movies into reality. Programs like ChatGPT can write essays better than many college students, craft original song lyrics, and a lot more, all in seconds.

Futurist Joe Allen joins Charlie to explore this crucial and frightening topic. Then, Pastor Rob McCoy joins with the biblical response to the perpetual march of technology.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Then, Dave Rubin comes on to talk about his two-day journey inside Twitter, where conservative accounts are being throttled and even Elon Musk doesn't seem to know why.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Biden classified documents issue has gone from an embarrassment to a full-blown FBI investigation.

"In the beginning was the Word." So opens the Gospel of John. But what does that mean, and why was it such a revelation to the Greek speakers who first heard it? Dr. Jeff Myers, president of Summit Ministries, joins Charlie to discuss this and other deep Biblical topics, and then digs into a key question for the present: What makes people today so willing to repeat lies, and so terrified to speak the truth?Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Houck committed no crime, but his pro-life activism caused the Biden Administration sent armed FBI agents to assault his house, humiliate him, and put him on trial for trumped-up charges.

Then, the show pivots to the latest assault on American freedoms, as Charlie covers the case of Douglass Mackey, currently on trial for what the Biden Admin says are criminal memes. Attorney James Lawrence lays out why Mackey's case is so unprecedented and should worry Americans everywhere.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For decades, Republicans have relied on old-fashioned political tactics to win elections, while Democrats embrace and master the latest technology. Tech expert Jason Begich joins with a proposal, and a warning: Unless the Right launches a well-funded "Manhattan Project" to improve its digital prowess, and quickly, it will lose the 2024 election before the campaign even begins. Plus, Raheem Kassam joins to tear apart Pfizer's corrupt bid to debunk the latest Project Veritas story.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The war in Ukraine is grinding to a bloody stalemate. Gains are measured in yards instead of miles, but the fighting still costs thousands of lives. But instead of negotiating a peace, American leaders seem determined for the war to go on forever. Col. Douglas MacGregor joins to argue that Ukraine's position is far weaker than believed, and gives his take on what must happen to bring peace now before disaster strikes. Plus, Trump attorney Christina Bobb joins to discuss her thesis on the 2020 election: The Democrats stole it, but Republicans covered it up.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Josh Hawley joins Charlie to discuss his new bill that would end shady Congressional stock trading for good.
