we're honored to be joined by the founder and CEO of Turning Point USA host of The Charlie Kirk show Charlie Kirk uh Charlie uh welcome to the show I I want to start thank you where I wasn't anticipating starting but you know hearing this news earlier in the day makes me think that pride month is going completely different than I anticipated today we learned that Starbucks
has instructed its locations to pull down pull back from their pride decorations throughout the store and and I I think I said this last week and and now I think there's even more momentum I actually think we're winning in this culture War as it relates to Pride we actually have some wind at our back is that the way you feel shockingly yes I mean the bad
guys the enemy or they're finally showing some weakness some shame I didn't know they actually had some shame I thought it was all about pride no matter what we don't care about the cost Evangelistic secular Zeal I feel the same way and I'm equally as surprised because I mean I fight these people on campuses all the time and one of their rules is that you should
never show any weakness you must be just belligerently ferociously aggressive at all times and but now you're seeing a new element which is in a weaker economy right Jason with interest rates a little bit higher the economy a little bit more fragile stocks going down a little bit all of a sudden a different decision-making Matrix is entering which is hey guys yeah you know this whole
pride thing is fine whatever but our stock is down 15 percent and we're no longer the number one beer or we're no longer able to compete against other companies because finally there is a consumer price to be paid and I think our side deserves a lot of credit we are starting to make decisions based on whether or not a company shares our values we're not all
the way there yet Jason once half the country truly starts to unify their purchasing power we're going to see even more stuff change so this is just the beginning stages but we're finally starting to see these otherwise Untouchable companies start to be a little bit hesitant be a little bit fearful the Starbucks one is shocking Jason if there was one company that I did not expect
any sort of wavering it would be Starbucks they are notoriously one of the flag waivers literally of the pride agenda and yet even they're saying this is too much for us that means they're seeing an impact directly their profits and this ridiculous propaganda campaign that is nauseating that is over the top is finally starting to threaten some of this some of their corporate their corporate profitability
and future I think we have to keep pressure on and I'm finally seeing some momentum yeah I'm thinking that what happened to Bud Light and what happened to Target clearly had an impact but I also think they probably must have some internal research that says like oh my God this could turn into a tsunami that this whole thing with sexualizing kids I'm sure they have data
and have done research they're like hey man parents and and normally Progressive people are rejecting the sexualization of kids lives of tick tock and this whole social media put it in in people's face uh what you know what happened at the White House yesterday flying the pride flag I think they're all like oh my God we have finally gone too far yes and they have research
Beyond Bud Light and all that that says that well two thoughts number one I think people are disgusted when the White House is turned into a strip club when you have showing up and literally undressing that's not an exaggeration they're taking their clothes off at the White House I mean that is a desecration and an insult to the people's house I think most ordinary Americans are
like yeah that's not for me but Jason I I think you're right but also wouldn't you love to be kind of a fly on the wall to hear the market research firm that they hired in the corporate boardroom uh yeah you know what Coca-Cola guys it's not a good idea to support the castration of children wow we never would have thought that you know could you
imagine like them sharing it in a corporate boardroom this stuff is obvious to you and I where I agree they probably have overwhelming amounts of data that pandering to a incredibly vocal aggressive minority is not a good way to get 80 of the country to buy your product the other thing that I find fascinating that I think you would be an expert in this regard because
you do so much work with faith leaders the fact that the uh pushback isn't really coming from the church it's coming from Believers that have started organizations like Turning Point USA that work Jeremy boring in the daily wire The Blaze and what we're doing the church isn't really the leader of this it's what Believers have built outside the church that's the leader of this pushback and
I is that a good thing a bad thing or it doesn't matter who the leader is well it's certainly necessary it's and I think you're exactly right we're seeing this kind of new generation of Christian entrepreneurs that are building big and bold and beautiful things to fulfill Psalm 97 10 which is to love God and hate evil that if you love God you must hate evil
and this is something modern Christianity has done a very poor job of modern Christianity has written some extremely good music I listened to it they do a lot of good rock concerts they put on things that are closer to a TED Talk than actually preaching the word of God uh they have they're really good at parking cars at mega churches and serving coffee in lobbies of
big churches not too good at hating evil but that is a component we are called to hate evil in fact Jesus himself confronted the Demonic and and using using obviously his authority as the Son of God and part of the godhead excommunicating the Demonic we are called to also fight that evil and I don't think the American church has even contested in that Arena so you
look at the blaze you look at Daily wire in Turning Point USA three great examples we are kind of filling the void where a lot of church and Jason parachurch Ministries are not fighting I mean there are a lot of these parachurch Ministries you could think of young life or campus Crusade or Caleb and they do good work but are they really fighting against the trans
agenda are they really communicating to Their audience about the grooming of children no they say we're not political and we don't take stances on it I think that's a vanilla cop-out this is a Biblical spiritual battle where they're going after children this is not Republican or Democrat no no this is good and evil and if the church and para Church Ministries aren't going to stand up
then a new generation of Believers and Spirit-filled entrepreneurs are going to build things to be able to fill that void so I'm encouraged Jason because the old way of doing things of pastors that used to do cop-outs and I mention them a lot you know kind of these nice guy pastors Happy Talk pastors their their time is over their congregations are shrinking their men Industries are
really evaporating they're not finishing well and now it's time for us to rebuke this evil that is the new Pagan secular religion let's be very clear Jason there is no such thing as a religionless society in America you just replace Christianity with a counterfeit religion that looks very similar to the Earth worship to the worship of self that the Bible was actually originally written as a
refutation of the first five books of Moses what we call the pentateuch or the Torah was at war with Pagan polytheism worship of self worship of Earth worship of sexual behavior and now we're just seeing the the kind of old gods resurrected and we call it pride like what you saw hit that like button subscribe and check out the full episode by clicking the link below
