I GOT YOU COVERED: The Kirk Family Puts Utah on Notice

"I got you covered." According to the Kirk family's notice of claim, that is what Utah Valley University's police chief wrote back when a Turning Point official asked about roof access before Charlie Kirk's event. The notice, dated September 9, the day before the one-year mark, comes from Erika Kirk, Charlie's parents and his estate, and it names the State of Utah, Utah Valley University, the university police department, Chief Jeffrey Long and former president Astrid Tuminez. In Utah you must file a notice of claim before you can sue the state; the family has two years from his death to file the lawsuit itself. Family attorney Brett Parkinson, per the Deseret News: "His murder was entirely preventable and, in fact, would not have happened had the State of Utah and UVU followed through on their stated security promises, which included protecting the rooftops surrounding the quad where Charlie was speaking." ABC News quotes the notice: "Through a series of stunning failures and reckless decisions, the UVU parties created a foreseeable danger to Charlie." UVU, per the Deseret News: "We are aware of the notice of claim. UVU addresses legal matters consistent with our established processes." Butler, then Utah, another rooftop, and this time a family is asking who promised to watch it. Chuck reads the filing as reported by the Deseret News, ABC News and The Gateway Pundit. Also in today's episode: the House buries Al Green's latest impeachment of President Trump 232 to 147, and per NTD and CBS News, 147 Democrats voted to keep it alive, 18 voted to kill it, and 46, including Hakeem Jeffries, voted present after calling impeachment "a sacred constitutional vehicle"; the Commerce Department says retail sales jumped 1.2 percent in August against a 0.7 percent forecast, per the Associated Press, not adjusted for inflation; the House passes a resolution to pull U.S. forces out of hostilities with Iran, 220 to 204, with seven Republicans voting yes, per The Hill and UPI; Thomas Massie files eight articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Speaker Johnson sends the House home early, calling it a "stunt," per the AP; 60 Minutes opens its season to 7.94 million viewers, down 21 percent and its smallest premiere audience since at least 2000, per Nielsen figures reported by TheWrap; an 84-year-old man returns a magazine to a New Hampshire library 132 years overdue and owes nothing; and two men are lifted out of a tree over the Hillsborough River by deputies and a state wildlife officer after their boat flips. 00:00 Welcome to 647 01:53 Overdue Library Return 03:16 Charlie Kirk Lawsuit Notice 06:15 House Tables Impeachment 08:34 Retail Sales Surprise 10:57 Iran War Powers Vote 13:16 Massie Impeaches Hegseth 15:53 60 Minutes Ratings Drop 18:00 River Rescue Good News 19:35 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

SOMEBODY PAID TO CREMATE CROOKS: A Line in the FBI File

Somebody paid to cremate Thomas Crooks, and nobody is saying who. FBI records turned over to Senator Chuck Grassley's Judiciary Committee, first reported by the New York Post and reviewed by Fox News, include the Bureau's summary of its interview with the gunman's father, and at the very end, one line: an anonymous donor paid for the cremation. According to the records, the detail came from a lawyer for the family; the father was retired and the mother was on leave from work. The records do not identify the donor, do not explain the payment, and, per Fox News, establish no connection between that person and the attack. The same documents show Crooks used the alias "Bob Dole" to order suspicious packages before the shooting. Remember the timing: back in 2024, Congressman Clay Higgins said the FBI released the body for cremation about ten days after Butler, and that he tried to examine it and could not. An anonymous check, a fast cremation, and a body a congressman never got to see. People are going to ask. Chuck is asking already. Also in today's episode: President Trump writes on Truth Social that by the time he took office "most of the information was missing, altered, corrupted, or gone" from the Butler investigation, calls former FBI Director Christopher Wray a "dirty cop," and offers no details, per CNN, while FBI Director Kash Patel tells the Senate Judiciary Committee the Bureau went through about 27 of the shooter's devices and found no contact with anyone but his parents; Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent tells the House there are "ways to do" the $5,000 Trump dividend "that would not affect the deficit," per Yahoo Finance, without saying which, while Speaker Johnson tells the AP Congress would need to act; Catholic parents in Southborough, Massachusetts say the state took their daughter at 15 after they would not call her a boy, a judge blocks the state's request to give her testosterone, and the next hearing is October 29, per IBTimes UK; the Air Force Secretary says out loud for the first time that the United States "now has on-orbit space control weapons," per the Associated Press and Air and Space Forces Magazine; the International Energy Agency says global coal demand will hit a record 8.94 billion tonnes this year because gas stopped coming through Hormuz; and a Hillsborough County deputy chases a five-week-old kitten off Interstate 275 in Tampa, then takes him home and names him Dash. 00:00 Welcome to 647 00:40 Mayflower and Reset 02:12 Butler Files Missing 04:16 Anonymous Cremation Donor 06:23 Trump Dividend Debate 08:41 Massachusetts Custody Fight 11:11 America Weapons in Space 13:31 Coal Demand Surges 15:31 Kitten Rescue Good News 16:55 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

BRENNAN "REMAINS A TARGET": Grand Jury Date in Florida | 647 Ep. 344

Former CIA Director John Brennan has been ordered to appear October 15 before a federal grand jury in Fort Pierce, Florida, and his own lawyer says he "remains a target." The subpoena was handed to attorney Ken Wainstein last Thursday and disclosed in a court filing Monday, according to the Associated Press and Fox News. Fort Pierce is the courthouse where Judge Aileen Cannon sits, the judge who threw out the classified documents case against President Trump in 2024. The AP reports the grand jury is part of a "far-reaching" criminal investigation into whether the officials who investigated Donald Trump over the last decade, from the 2016 Russia probe to the Mar-a-Lago documents case, conspired to deprive him of his civil rights. Wainstein's filing says a prosecutor told him Brennan is still a target of a separate Washington investigation into whether he lied to Congress in 2023, which Brennan and his lawyers deny. Wainstein, per the AP: "There's a lot of really underhanded stuff going on," and "The reality is there's no precedent for this situation." The prosecutor who had been leading the conspiracy probe, Joe diGenova, resigned the same day the subpoena went out. There was no precedent for the CIA director signing off on the Russia story either. Chuck reads who sits across the table on October 15. Also in today's episode: the 10-year Treasury yield crosses 5 percent Monday morning for the first time since 2023, per CNN and Breitbart, and the average 30-year mortgage is already at 6.76 percent, up from 6.15 at the start of the year; the "Stand With the Juror" fundraiser for the Lindsay Clancy holdout passes $115,000 while Plymouth County decides whether to try the case again, per The Gateway Pundit and TMZ; Barack Obama tells House Democrats at a private New York fundraiser, per a partial transcript reported by The New York Times, "Once you are speaker," put artificial intelligence at the center of the agenda; a North Carolina State House nominee's posts bearing her name, per WRAL and Breitbart, hope for "an attack on US soil" and caption a photo at the Dachau ovens "This is where Trump supporters belong," and her own party pulls its money and staff while her name stays on the ballot; the Canadian Armed Forces publish a rule that spiritual reflections at official ceremonies "do not use religious specific language, including references to God," in the policy's own words on the government's website, and Canada's Catholic military bishop answers it; a Long Island congressional nominee's past modeling for an adult retailer's ads, confirmed by his own lawyer per the New York Post; and Craig Berg, 70, of Royal Oak, Michigan, found alive and alert after a week lost on Isle Royale and lifted out by a Coast Guard helicopter. 00:00 Welcome and Headlines 02:26 Fetish Photo Scandal 04:33 Brennan Grand Jury Subpoena 07:53 Treasury Hits Five Percent 10:10 Juror Support Fundraiser 12:30 Obama Pushes AI Agenda 16:23 Dachau Post Fallout 19:27 Canada Bans Prayer 22:31 Rescue on Isle Royale 24:21 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

THEY CROSSED OUT JESUS: Kirk's Statue Defaced in 3 Days

Last Thursday, September 10, Turning Point USA unveiled an eight-foot bronze statue of Charlie Kirk outside its headquarters in Phoenix, one year to the day after he was shot and killed at Utah Valley University. It lasted three days. Sunday morning, just after 8:00, Phoenix Police got the calls. Somebody had been at it in the night with red spray paint: the face, the neck, the torso, the hand, the hats, and a frowning face drawn across the chest. Charlie Kirk was shot in the neck, and whoever did this put the red on the neck. At the base of the statue is a sign with his picture and the words "Jesus defeated death so you can live." They crossed out the word Jesus. They crossed out the cross. Fox News reports the word "Satan" was written over it. Tyler Bowyer of Turning Point put it this way: "This morning we woke up to radical criminals vandalizing our headquarters, crossing over Charlie's face, scratching out Jesus and the cross, and spraying red paint on his neck." Turning Point is going through the security footage with law enforcement; Phoenix Police say it is under investigation and there are no arrests. They did not just go after a man. They went after the name of Jesus on his memorial. Chuck reads it as reported by Fox News, FOX 10 Phoenix and Breitbart News. Also in today's episode: the president says from his golf course in Ireland that Iran "wants to make a deal so badly, they are calling constantly," that the war ends "right after the midterms" and "gasoline's gonna drop like a rock," while AAA's Sunday numbers put regular at $4.31 and diesel at $6.20, over six dollars for the first time and $2.50 more than a year ago; a Massachusetts jury deadlocks 11 to 1 in the Lindsay Clancy case, NBC10 Boston digs into the lone holdout's court record, and Governor DeSantis answers, "If the juror is being harassed, Florida will provide asylum"; federal prosecutors subpoena six years of records on the nonprofit that pays for Gavin Newsom's travel, per the San Francisco Standard, with no one charged; Emmanuel Macron falls to 16 percent approval in an Ipsos poll, his lowest since 2017; The Gateway Pundit's own documentary about the five men prosecuted over January 6 premieres in West Palm Beach on the 26th; Senator Ted Cruz is booed through nine minutes on ESPN's College GameDay in Austin; and Congressman Tom Tiffany's plane loses power and lands in Lake Wausau, he swims to safety, and his Democratic opponent says he is "grateful to God" that no one was hurt. 00:00 Welcome and Headlines 02:10 Ted Cruz Booed on GameDay 03:49 Iran Talk and Diesel Spike 06:30 Massachusetts Mistrial Juror Smear 09:20 Charlie Kirk Statue Vandalized 11:31 Newsom Travel Fund Probe 13:45 Macron Approval Collapse 15:50 American Martyrs Documentary 19:06 Plane Crash Landing Good News 20:47 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

NEVER FORGET WAS AN INSTRUCTION: 9/11 at 25 | 647 Ep. 342

Twenty-five years ago this morning, 2,977 people went to work or got on a plane or answered a call and did not come home. Here is how today is being marked. At Ground Zero the ceremony starts at 8:30 Eastern, with the first moment of silence at 8:46, the minute the first plane hit the North Tower, and silences through the morning for the second tower, the Pentagon, Flight 93, and this year, for the people who have died since of what they breathed on the pile. At the Pentagon at 9:00 they read the 184 names of those killed there and on American Airlines Flight 77, and the president speaks. The vice president is at Ground Zero, and so are Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. In Shanksville they read the forty names, ring the Bells of Remembrance and lay a wreath at the Wall of Names. Tonight the Tribute in Light, 88 xenon bulbs at 7,000 watts each, throws two beams up from where the towers stood, visible from sixty miles. Then the number: reporting this week puts those who have died since of illnesses tied to that day at more than 9,000, three times the original toll and still rising. The World Trade Center Health Program had 144,000 people enrolled at the end of June, 56,000 of them responders, and its cancer cases have gone from about 3,200 in 2015 to nearly 53,000. Never forget was not a slogan. It was an instruction. Chuck reads the day as it is being marked, as reported by ABC News, NBC News and the ceremony schedules. Also in today's episode: the Postal Service's own Inspector General audited how primary ballots were handled at nine plants and 73 delivery units in eight states, found 99 percent delivered on time, and then found wrong dates on the hand-canceling devices at five of nine plants, at least 56 ballots wrongly postmarked and not delivered in time to count, and one machine in Cincinnati set to April 43rd, 2013, a date that does not exist; the same week, the First Circuit refused to let the new mail-ballot rules take effect before November and the Solicitor General went to the Supreme Court; the Supreme Court ended the Missouri map fight with an unsigned order, and Missouri votes on the 2022 map, a loss Chuck names as one; the president warns Iran over Pickaxe Mountain while AAA has regular at $4.28 and diesel at $5.98, up $2.27 in a year; the president pledges a $5,000 "Trump dividend" to every adult citizen if Republicans hold both chambers, and $500 Obamacare rebate checks to nearly a million people, with the honest caveat that nobody has said whether either needs Congress; the Army's $3-a-shot laser has cut cartel drone traffic over the Rio Grande Valley by about 75 percent, per CBP sources to The Hill; the president signs the law putting the Medal of Honor Monument on the National Mall; Netflix's UK account posts a "neck injury" joke on the anniversary of Charlie Kirk's death, and Chuck reads the company's denial in full; and a Detroit pastor gets two and a half minutes at a political convention and uses them to preach the name of Jesus. 00:00 Welcome and Headlines 01:42 Border Laser Defense 03:04 Convention Gaffe and Honor 05:19 Remembering September 11 09:06 Mail Ballot Audit 13:03 Missouri Map Ruling 15:38 Iran Tensions and Fuel 18:17 Trump Dividend Proposal 21:39 Netflix Neck Joke 23:55 Pastor Moment and Wrap 26:36 Prayer and Farewell There is a famine of truth in our land.

"DON'T DO ANYTHING": The FBI Notes vs. the FBI Report

On Wednesday the White House Government Transparency Task Force declassified and released the handwritten notes two FBI agents, Peter Strzok and Joe Pientka, took while interviewing General Michael Flynn on January 24, 2017. The typed official summary of that interview, the form the FBI calls a 302, did not go into the bureau's system until more than 20 days later. Flynn was charged with lying in that interview, pleaded guilty, later moved to withdraw the plea, and was pardoned in 2020. Here is what the handwriting says next to what the typed report says. On what Flynn told the Russian ambassador, Pientka's notes have Flynn saying "Hey, don't do anything." The 302 has him saying "Not really. I don't remember. It wasn't, 'don't do anything.'" On how many calls he made that day, the 302 says Flynn remembered making four to five; one agent's notes say "I do not remember making 4-5 calls," and the other has "If so, don't remember." Text messages between Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page show them discussing edits to that same 302, with Strzok "trying not to completely re-write" it. John Solomon, who co-wrote the Just the News story and chairs the task force that released the documents, says the notes were never turned over before Flynn pleaded guilty. A pardon is not a court finding, and no court has ruled on these notes. Chuck reads the handwriting and the typed report side by side, as reported by Just the News and the Washington Examiner. One year ago today Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, at 31, under a tent taking questions from students. The university has cancelled classes today. Tonight at 6:30 Turning Point USA holds a memorial, Freedom Built to Last, in the UCCU Center on that campus, with Glenn Beck and Frank Turek speaking. Also in today's episode: an armed man charges at Amy Acton, the Democrats' nominee for governor of Ohio, at the Canfield Fair, and the Republican governor and the Republican candidate's campaign condemn it in plain words; American forces destroy five Iranian tankers named by Central Command, Iran fires 20 missiles at a base in Jordan and Jordan says it stopped 18, Brent crude goes over $100 and AAA has diesel at $5.94, a record again; Missouri's congressional map flips overnight when a federal judge orders the opposite of what Justice Kavanaugh's denial left in place, and two courts now say two maps with ballots mailing in nine days; Hunter Biden launches a meme coin named $LAPTOP that falls about 98 percent inside an hour; and a Toledo jury convicts a former lawyer of attempted murder after he pulled the trigger on his ex-wife in a crowded restaurant, the safety held, and a waiter tackled him. 00:00 Welcome to 647 00:29 Charlie Kirk Anniversary 02:59 Take 1 Memorial Narrative 05:38 Take 2 Ohio Fair Arrest 09:10 Take 3 Iran Tankers Oil 12:51 Take 4 Missouri Map Fight 16:13 Take 5 Flynn Notes Bombshell 19:29 Take 6 Hunter Crypto Crash 22:12 Good News Hero Waiter 24:30 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

DIESEL HAS NEVER COST MORE: The US Hits Iran's Tankers

On Tuesday U.S. Central Command hit Iranian oil tankers near Kharg Island and near Jask, disabling the ships that carry Iranian crude, a day after Iran fired at least one ballistic missile at a U.S. Navy warship and missed. The man who runs Central Command, Admiral Brad Cooper, had already said what the answer would be: "If you shoot at two of our ships, we will impose an even higher economic cost, taking out three of yours." On Saturday American forces disabled three more tankers, the Downy, the Stark 1 and the Kylo, one of them destroyed, per CENTCOM. The same Tuesday, Yemen's Houthis hit Saudi Arabia: Abha International Airport, King Khalid Air Base and Aramco facilities at Abha and Jizan, with 73 wounded by the Saudi-led coalition's count, and Saudi strikes back the same day. Here is the part that reaches your driveway. Brent crude traded around $97 a barrel Tuesday, a seven-week high. AAA has regular gasoline at $4.15 and diesel at $5.90, which is not a seasonal record; it is the highest price diesel has ever been in this country. Diesel is what moves the food. Chuck reads the strikes, the admiral's words and the pump numbers, as reported by The Gateway Pundit, CBS News, Fox News and AAA.

"UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES": DHS Wants ERIC Investigated | 647 Ep. 339

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has formally asked Attorney General Todd Blanche to investigate ERIC, the Electronic Registration Information Center, the multi-state group that many states hand their voter rolls to for cleanup, along with a nonprofit called the Center for Election Innovation and Research. The letter went to the Justice Department on September 2. As The Federalist lays it out, ERIC's own model contract requires member states to send in motor vehicle records at least every 60 days, records that can include Social Security and driver's license numbers, and Mullin's letter says that data has been reaching private organizations and "exposes millions of citizens' sensitive private data." He points to the Driver's Privacy Protection Act. An administration official told The Federalist at least nine states were in the arrangement, covering more than 48 million registered voters. Then the line Chuck reads twice, from the contract itself: "under no circumstances shall the Member transmit an individual's record where the record contains documentation or other information indicating that the individual is a non-citizen." The other side gets its say: David Becker of the Center for Election Innovation and Research "firmly rejects any suggestion that it receives motor vehicle or voter data on an ongoing basis." Nobody has been charged with anything. It is a request for an investigation, and the Justice Department has not said what it will do with it. Chuck reads the letter, the contract and the denial, as reported by The Gateway Pundit, The Federalist and NOTUS. Also in today's episode: the challengers to the president's mail-ballot rule had until 10 AM Eastern this morning to answer at the Supreme Court, the third trip up in a week after Judge Indira Talwani blocked key pieces of the rule again on Friday, per SCOTUSblog and NBC News; North Carolina Governor Josh Stein orders the state's flags to half-staff through September 10 for Gloria Steinem, who died last week at 92, a date The Western Journal notes is one year since Charlie Kirk was killed; Labor Day gasoline hit $4.15 a gallon, a record for the holiday, and diesel hit $5.90, a record outright, per AAA, while Iran says it will declare a restricted zone in the Persian Gulf; a piece of the Kennedy Center's grand foyer ceiling comes down during a rainstorm and nobody is hurt; George Clooney names the three Democrats he would back in 2028; a Georgia candidate puts AirTags in his campaign signs and finds out where they went; the president posts a map with New Mexico renamed; three climbers are rescued off Mount Shasta after an AI planned their trip; and a 22-year-old in Kaysville, Utah becomes the first UpBeat Barre instructor with Down syndrome and teaches her first class to more than 60 people. 00:00 Welcome to 647 00:55 Today in History 02:29 Headlines Preview 03:01 Poo Poo Platter 1 04:05 Poo Poo Platter 2 05:24 Poo Poo Platter 3 07:09 Mail Ballot Deadline 10:21 Flags for Steinem 15:16 ERIC Voter Data 19:59 Gas Prices and Iran 24:35 Kennedy Center Collapse 27:27 ARMS Clooney Picks 31:16 Good News Spotlight 33:30 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

17 SHERIFFS SUE THEIR STATE: The 9/11 Warning

Seventeen of Maryland's 24 sheriffs are suing their own state in federal court over the Community Trust Act, the law that bars local police and county jails from questioning immigration status, holding anyone to check citizenship, or telling federal immigration authorities about people in their custody without a court order. An ICE detainer is not enough. The suit was filed in May in Greenbelt with the Federation for American Immigration Reform as counsel. This week the sheriff leading it, Jeffrey Gahler of Harford County, took it to Capitol Hill one week before the 25th anniversary of 9/11: "When you pass legislation in a world post-9/11, in 9/11 we learned that we need to communicate with all federal partners." His verdict on the law: "stupidity at its best." Frederick County Sheriff Chuck Jenkins told DC News Now the law "has handcuffed me totally." The bill's author, State Senator Clarence Lam, told FOX 5 the sheriffs are "trying to demonstrate fealty to Donald Trump and ICE." One state south, a federal judge has already frozen Virginia's version of the same law. Chuck reads the suit, the testimony, the law's own text and the other side, as reported by Fox News, The Washington Times, FOX 5 and DC News Now. Also in today's episode: the Trump administration goes to the Supreme Court with an emergency application to lift Judge Indira Talwani's order blocking the new Postal Service mail-ballot rules, on the day North Carolina starts mailing ballots, per SCOTUSblog and The Washington Post; Iran says it fired missiles and drones at Ahmed al-Jaber Air Base in Kuwait and Al Minhad Air Base in the Emirates, Kuwait says it intercepted them, the Emirates calls the Al Minhad claim false, and no American casualties have been reported; the president writes on Truth Social that American ammunition is "virtually unlimited" and that Europe will be asked to pay for what went to Ukraine; a Los Angeles podcaster is indicted on three federal counts for threats against the president and cyberstalking the president's former lawyer, and pleads not guilty; Maine's highest court rules against a mother fighting to take her daughter to church, and Liberty Counsel says it will petition the U.S. Supreme Court; Fox News parts ways with Maria Bartiromo after twelve and a half years in a one-sentence statement; the vice president's mother answers the Michigan Senate candidate who called her grandchildren "brown kids"; George Clooney tells the Venice Film Festival that "the people with the most money are telling us to fear one another"; and a man digging a terrace in his garden in Denmark hits the largest Viking silver hoard in the country's history. 00:00 Welcome and Headlines 03:30 Poo Poo Platter 1 05:09 Poo Poo Platter 2 07:10 Poo Poo Platter 3 09:13 Iran Strikes and Ammo Claims 15:16 Supreme Court Mail Ballots 20:04 Maryland Sheriffs vs Sanctuary Law 25:47 Threats Case in Los Angeles 28:23 Maine Church Custody Ruling 32:11 Clooney Speech and Culture Rant 40:00 Viking Silver Hoard Discovery 42:39 Sign Off and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.

CNN FOUND THE MEMO: DHS Voter Fraud Surge in 9 States

Homeland Security Investigations, the arm of ICE that normally works drug smuggling, human trafficking and child exploitation, has launched what its own internal guidance calls a "coordinated criminal voter fraud surge initiative" in nine states, running through the middle of October. CNN found the memo. Not Breitbart, not this show. California, Connecticut, Georgia, Missouri, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington and Wisconsin. A DHS spokesman told The Federalist the agency is "ensuring that American citizens and only American citizens are electing American leaders." The department's own count, as reported by The Federalist: more than 24,000 cases of potential non-citizens on voter rolls flagged through the federal SAVE system since April 2025 and referred for investigation. CNN also notes, fairly, that the Justice Department has traditionally not run loud investigations close to an election. Homeland Security is not the Justice Department. Whether that is a problem or the whole point depends on where you have been standing for six years. Also in today's episode: the United States and Iran trade the widest wave of strikes since the pause, with Jordan reporting 10 of 13 missiles intercepted and no confirmed American casualties; a Utah judge rules that the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk will stand trial for aggravated murder with the death penalty available, per NPR; the Dutch central bank quietly moves 86 metric tons of gold out of New York and Ottawa and puts it in London, and explains why in its own words; a federal judge dismisses the Justice Department's Title IX suit over California girls' sports on notice grounds, not on the merits; Minnesota's attorney general returns donations tied to the Feeding Our Future fraud after a recording surfaces; an Oklahoma city manager is arrested on 11 felony counts of false affidavit in voter registration; a Staten Island congressional staffer is struck by lightning fifteen feet from his car and walks to a neighbour's door for help; James Carville tells the Democratic Socialists to stop borrowing the word Democrat; and a boy who lost his most prized Pokémon card at a San Francisco event finds out what the internet does when it decides you matter. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 01:10 History of the Day 02:33 Poo Poo 1 Voter Fraud Arrest 04:36 Poo Poo 2 Lightning Strike Survivor 05:59 Poo Poo 3 Carville vs Socialists 07:33 Take 1 US Iran Strike Exchange 11:59 Take 2 ICE Voter Fraud Surge 15:05 Take 3 Charlie Kirk Trial Update 19:18 Take 4 Title IX Girls Sports Ruling 22:57 Take 5 Dutch Gold Moved to London 25:41 Take 6 Ellison Donation Fallout 28:47 Good News Pokemon Card Returned 30:55 Wrap Up and Prayer There is a famine of truth in our land.
