"And Iowa apartment building that collapsed on Sunday will be demolished. Officials in Davenport say the demolition of what was once the Davenport hotel will begin Tuesday morning. The collapse injured at least one person and displaced countless residents and business owners. It's not known why the building collapsed, but Davenport fired chief Michael Carlson says investigators are searching for a cause. There's been normal rental complaints, but there has been some complaints to the structure. We issued notice and orders to have those repaired. The building owner hired their own engineering firm to direct them and the repairs needed to be made. Residents have not been allowed back inside to remove their belongings due to the building's unstable condition. I'm Mike Hempen.

Democrats Are Coming After the Trucking Industry
"Trucking industry truckers in particular are under attack whether you're union or independent which have no consequence You're under attack The only way you can put food on the table is if you drive reliable trucks That can take you good distances before you have to keep filling up with diesel So what they've done is they're driving up the cost of diesel In order to drive you out of your rigs I want you to think about the cost of a rig ladies and gentlemen These are massive vehicles Now whether you're independent you own your own rig or you own a few rigs or you're not owning any rigs or an employee and your employer has to replace rigs or fundamentally alter them You could lose your job The EPA recently proposed new tailpipe emissions goals that could require up to two thirds of new cars sold in the U.S. by 2032 to be battery powered electric vehicles Now we talked about that But this also relates to these big 18 wheelers Power by small business owners and union workers are like the trucking industry is on a collision course with the Democrat party Over federal and local efforts to phase out diesel rigs and push the shipping industry to electric vehicles so that what they're going to do is cut off the food for the trucks Cut off the food which is their fuel

Bridget Ziegler: Why People Should Care About Local Education Systems
"In Florida here, today is the final day, the Florida legislative session wraps up the Florida legislature legislature got a lot done and people around the country are paying attention to issues like critical race theory and election integrity and so much more, including parents roles in the role of the parent and what their kids are doing. Frankly, Bridget, there's no bigger issue to moms and dads with school age kids than what is going on in our nation's public schools. That's what the leadership institute is focused on. Let's talk about why families who have grown kids or maybe people with no children why they should care too. Thank you for that question. That's one of my favorite questions. The reality is because I hear it all the time. Grandparents, their children have grown. They're not in schools. The reality is, no matter whether you have children or not, the quality of your local education system has a direct impact on your local economy, but also has a massive impact on your community and your state and your country for the future. And that's why everyone needs to get involved and pay attention to what's happening. We are seeing kids graduate who can not read at even a third grade level. Those are our future employees or supposed to be our future business owners and future leaders. So everyone is impacted. Maybe not immediately, but I would argue that economic impact is immediate, but the future direction of our country will all be felt. I think we're seeing it right now that we have students that are people that can't really find prepared in the skills to enter the workforce. Those are all a derivative of what's happened in the decline of public education.

Tell us the good news of how our audience is doing, getting their money back from the government with the ERC, tell us about it. Absolutely. Hey Charlie, I'm so excited to be a part of the show. By the way, I love watching we have yawn actually throughout the office every single morning. It's decided to be on the show here. One of the share the news.

Most people don't even know that this money has been allocated by Congress. And I'm not a fan of all this money that's been allocated, but hey, if it's there, do your thing, COVID tax relief dot org. Tell us about the details of the law. Yeah, so the ERC program or the employee retention credit. It's for businesses who kept their doors open or tried to keep their doors open during the pandemic, meaning that maybe they couldn't make it through the whole thing. But they were paying W two employees throughout the time that they were open. It's a reward basically for these companies having done that. Any amount of employees over two W two employees qualifies and it's very simple here within our company. The law is about 200 pages long as you could imagine. We have built software that parallels the IRS guidelines and what that means is you go to COVID tax relief dot org, you're going to enter in your information.

There's no personal sensitive information that we ask for at all. And we don't ask for any type of payment at all.

Bill Gates and the CCP Should NOT Be Buying Up Our Farmland
"Michael Peters. A member of the Lee Republican executive committee moved down here from north Florida, lived there for 15 years. Owned a small business there. Got to be real good friends with lots of other small business owners and farmers. And the farmers in north Florida are being bought out by Bill Gates. How do we stop it? It's a great question. So this is where we need to push back against oligarchy and it's not just Bill Gates. It's the Chinese Communist Party as well. And so for us. And you can't blame the farmer. So some people say, oh, why are the farmers selling? Because they come in with unbelievably lucrative cash deals people, okay? I'm talking about ten times multiples on earnings, right? Four times and they're like, I can't say no to this, right? So I believe there should be a law passed on a state by state level that billionaire oligarchs should not be able to buy millions of acres of pharma. You want to buy a couple 100,000 acres. Okay, there could be a limit. But the Chinese Communist Party should be able to buy zero, okay? I would be willing to go as far to say that Bill Gates, you already own enough land as it is in the country. Bill Gates is not buying farmland because he wants the betterment for the country. He's letting it go fallow. It's what? He's letting it go foul like. I believe it. BlackRock, for example, should not be able to buy up single-family homes and write them back to our kids. Amen. So what we're getting at here is the next exciting development in the conservative movement. I'm a free market guy. We all like free markets. However, free market should serve people. When free markets fail to serve people, we should be willing to use prudence practical judgment to make the market serve the people. It's against the free market to have a guy worth a $110 billion, go buy farmland, let the land go. You said fallow is the technical term, right? Correct. And so foreigners should not be able to come in and buy our farmland. Single-family homes should be owned by families or small investors not $10 trillion funds.

FLWR Shop Declines Jobs From Republicans Until More Gun Laws Pass
"All the Republicans are coming into town this weekend. You've got president Trump is going to be in Tennessee, former vice president Mike Pence, a massive RNC fundraising event. And so they're having it in Nashville and clearly the RNC, they've got some pretty deep pockets. And so they're reaching out to locally owned small businesses and saying, hey, you know, can you provide this service or that service? They reached out to a flower shop. And it's actually called the flower shop. That's the name of the shop. The flower shop, would you write that down? Shop. So anyway, the flower shop, they reached out to the Nashville based florist, and they said, hey, we'd like to hire you to provide floral arrangements for our big meaning. And so the owners of the flower shop actually wrote back to the RNC, and they basically told them up yours. The flower shop wrote a letter, and I want to read this to you. They said we immediately declined this opportunity, and we want to take a moment to publicly clarify our stance as small business owners in Nashville. We would like to challenge others and the Nashville event industry to say no to taking money or jobs from the Republican Party until they begin to make the changes to gun laws that most Americans are calling for. Okay, well, first of all, who is calling for more gun laws? We've got plenty of gun laws already on the books. Why don't you try enforcing those? But anyway, the flower shop got their pansies in a twist because all these Republicans are coming to town, and it wasn't good enough for them to say, we're not doing business with you. Now they're telling all these other businesses, you can't do business, you should not do business with the Republicans.

Caller: If We Don't Stand With Pres. Trump, They'll Come After Us All
"Want to land on president Trump after his speech last night from Mar-a-Lago. He may be so proud to how he could stand up after going through the heck that he goes through every day and he stood there and helped his composure and promised America that he is going to do whatever he can for us. And it was an amazing speech. And I just hope that every other conservative Republican gets out the votes early and stands by this man because he does not have to do anything for this country. He has wealth and a lot of great people behind him and he's doing it because he loves our country. So Eric, your opinion of the president not only has it, it hasn't gone down. It's actually it's gone up is what you're telling me. I've always had high standards for president Trump and just what he's going through and how he's still pushing forward makes me proud to have see this man make America how he made it so great from 2016 through 2020 and for anybody to think that he is not the man they are just sadly mistaken and he is in the way of coming after direction.

Rep. Ralph Norman: If America Defaults, It's on Biden
"Trying to wrap my head around these numbers Congress, but they're insane. Not only is it saying, but when you ask, go down Main Street USA in ask any business owner or any family, how things going for you. What do you think about the price of gas? Is your business doing well? What about supply shortages of things? And no, the countries are tough shape. And it's all self induced. It's self induced by the administration. It took over a booming economy back from president Trump was in office. But the good news is, I mean, it's like taking your car to mechanic, can tell you all the wrong things, but I think what Americans want to know is how are you going to fix it? The way you're going to fix it is what we're doing. Okay. And so is it going to make everybody happy? No. But we're starting the trajectory of less spending in a balanced budget and if the president shuts this economy down, if the president causes America to default, it's going to be on him because we're getting our budget out in a timely manner. And it's going to be for all Americans to see starting tomorrow. We told the press today we're going to file all our amendments today and they can look and see if what we're doing if we're doing what we say we're doing, which we are.

TikTok CEO faces off with Congress over security fears
"TikTok CEO appears on Capitol Hill today to face a grilling by U.S. lawmakers. Some politicians have started talking about banning TikTok. The CEO of TikTok reached out directly to users ahead of his appearance before the U.S. House committee on energy and commerce today. Amid escalating U.S. China tensions shows the Chu will be making a case for why the popular video sharing app isn't a national security risk, at a White House briefing yesterday, National Security Council spokesman John Kirby wouldn't confirm reports that the Biden administration is asking the Chinese company ByteDance to sell the app, amid concerns that user data could end up in the hands of the Chinese government. We've made very clear our national security concerns about that particular application. That's why it's been banned on government devices. TikTok has been trying to sell officials on a $1.5 billion plan called project Texas, which routes all U.S. user data to domestic servers owned and maintained by software giant Oracle.

Trish and KeyCity Capital's Tie Lasseter Discuss the Economy
"Moving at a very, very rapid pace right now. But bottom line, the feds are saying, okay, you know what? We're going to guarantee deposits at any of these banks by opening this window, do you think that's the right move? Well, I think we absolutely needed it. The fed absolutely had to back in and ensure otherwise you're going to see a much larger problem with small business across the United States. We've got maximum $250,000 that the fed's going to ensure. I was talking to another business owner in Dallas where I am yesterday. And I mean, there are small business $5 million a year in revenue. So they're not going to, they're not going to lay that out across ten different banks and the deposits that they have in order to fit within the shared mandate. And it's too much red tape. Exactly. So they did what they had to do. But now everybody still freaking out. Even though the fed says, don't worry, you know, we're going to be here. We'll loan them whatever money. This fear factor, right? This is what's so dangerous in markets because once the fear factor starts, there are worries about contagion, are you concerned that we could see multiple bank failures in 2023? No doubt that there's going to be bigger problems. I don't know that we'll see multiple bank failures, but we're going to definitely see faculties across a number of regional banks. There's a lot of consumer spending going on. Great jobs market and all of a sudden you start to see the effects of rising interest rates and the difficulty to get and obtain cash and money and yet we're still spending. We would have increased interest rates all at one time or maybe over a two time period to get to a point that would affect inflation. It would have been much better than seeing what the lingering effects of a slow increase in an interest rate. Yeah, you and I are on the same page on that one. I mean,

Jason Brown Talks Consumer Tax Advocate and Covid Relief Funds
"For the loyal listeners of our program, you've heard me mention ERC, the employee retention credit. You've heard me mention it a couple times. And I've been blown away by the news that we have received of how many of you have been able to successfully get credits from the federal government. And look, I'm very clear. I wish Congress never would have appropriated this money. But it's there. And I'd rather have you get it than Ukraine and all of you need to look into it to research it. And as you know, you could do that at COVID tax relief federal. I was so blown away by the numbers. So enthusiastic about how many of you have been helped by it, wanted to have Jason from COVID tax relief dot org, join us and help break the news Jason, welcome to the program. It's good to see you. Thanks, Jason. So Jason, how many Charlie Kirk show listeners have participated in this program via your company and how much money have you successfully been able to recover? It continues to blow my mind as well. And at the numbers as of this morning, just from the last time you had us come on here Charlie over 200 business owners and over $24 million has been claimed and paid out through the ERC just to your listener. So that's exciting. That's amazing. So Jason, give our audience a little picture of who are these people? They're small business owners. They're plumbers, they're electricians. Who are the type of people that are mainly calling you and asking for help? Well, and that's actually what I love about the employee retention credit. It's not just a handout to anyone out there that owns a business. It's only going to those business owners that retained their W two employees during the pandemic during 2020 and 2021. And so it's a true win for business owners. This is, by the way, this is the last COVID stimulus money available to business owners. And look, I like how you put it. Whether you agree or not with the cares act, it's already been allocated. It's there. It's out there. So take it, right? If you retain your employees, look at it as a reward for giving those people a place to work during a tough time.

The "fair Share" Myth
"Let's get back to criticism of mister Joe slo-mo Joe creepy Joe, geriatric Joe Biden, who got up at the State of the Union and really made a fool of himself, but let me just say this. I want to be honest with you guys. People that like him don't care what he's saying. They want him to say whatever they can use as a sound bite to say, see, look, he did create jobs. Climate change, that stuff ain't even real. They're using political talking points in order to leverage you for the next election or the leverage you to spend your money or leverage you to turn this country into socialism. And communism. When I hear a person say, and this as a business owner, when I hear somebody say, big corporations need to pay their fair share, do you not understand how many taxes big corporations pay and they allow people to pay? It's just me, I'm like, I smile company. I think we got like 12 employees. We got like 9 employees and then we got a few other contractors. I look at that what I have to pay. The taxes that I have to pay on their behalf. It's called payroll taxes. And how much taxes I have to pay, the company has to pay, you know how much money we pay in the government. And these people come here, they got to pay state taxes well. It makes no sense. And imagine one of these major corporations, like Amazon, you know what I mean, people work for Amazon? Do you know how many people are paying taxes? Not only for the services, they got to pay sales tax. And then the employees are getting paid. The company has to pay payroll tax. And being the individual people when they buy stuff outside of Amazon, they have to pay tax. They have to pay state tax. All of these taxes, everywhere you go your money getting taxed, you die, you get taxed. Kids are born, and I don't know if they charge you. I didn't look at the Bill. When your baby's born and they put all that stuff on, they charge the insurance company. I don't know if they add tax on that. Maybe they do. Or maybe they just roll it into the price. Somebody paying tax on some of that money.

Jason Pye of the Due Process Institute Comments on Covid Fraud
"You mentioned the COVID fraud because there have been dozens of examples that I've seen of fraud within the paycheck protection program, which was the program that was created during the I think the first COVID relief Bill back in February or March of 2020. And there has been mention of investigations and arrests and some of that stuff, but the fraud that I saw something the other day and hopefully I'm not misrepresenting it here, but it was just like the fraud was not necessarily wide scale, but it wasn't marginal either. There was enough fraud in there and the fact that they're not investigating that kind of alarms me a little bit because they kept sight unseen. They were, they passed that and they replenished the funding for it, at least once. I think they might have done it twice. And there's no questions asked. In terms, if you push back on it, you were heartless and basically wanted business owners to fail. Which just boggles my mind. But and I don't say that as a COVID skeptic. Like, I'm vax. I'm boosted,

That just means they're doing nothing absolutely nothing every now and then a client brings down. Yeah exactly it's not really even active asking people for referrals. They just run their business and they started their business. So sort of the format of of yeah. Exactly you know maybe when you started you had no clients. You went out and asked her friends and asked everybody possibly. Could you got enough to come in. And then eventually people start popping in once in a while you know that's just never going to be a growth str- situation no matter how good you are. That's really shane. We've met a lot of people who were fantastic and have a lot to offer. Inter unique uniquely good in their niche and in their in their capabilities. but yet. that's unfortunately not good enough. It's never going to be good enough. How no matter how good you are in less. You can market yourself. The best author you could be the best financial advisor could be the best anything and it just. It's almost in almost any kind of industry. That's never good enough less. You're good at at marketing. And there was a on the episode for systematic conversation with a with peter. Peter he's got.

How fall or there may turned into a client and you know the deal ninety eight percent of them whatever. The point was where they got. A prospect is a screwed up system Even if when. I sit down face to face with somebody i closed. Most of the rest of the stuff was was all over. Yeah yeah there's this idea that. If i get the forget the person in the door i don't have any problems but everything else is the marketing this week and again flaky people flaky and in in almost all cases it's flaws in the earlier part of the system in the thing is in most cases that doesn't require correctly it doesn't require any more money to do correctly. What it requires is the know. How in the proper strategies you say a really well the difference between a really successful business in an unsuccessful business and a lot of cases is you know. They're both working really hard but the one that does better has their strategy and and the better strategy is more marketing activities and then each of those being done correctly know i can understand business not wanted to do something like these guys are saying.

That's the second thing what's what's the what's the one marketing magic pill and then man on pissed off about the clients and really frustrated with them. That's a big complaint. Give dan kennedy credit. His lying is well. There's always another bus coming.

They become a client of. I don't think they're going to be a good fit. And i stole this from top eaters years ago. You talked about In fact it was a cpa firm. I think they went through their client roster and basically the bottom twenty percent and all of a sudden everybody was happier. The clients were happier. They're getting more referrals. Their you know their revenue went up. Everything else went up. And i've done that with my businesses over. The years have been controversy. When i tell somebody about it. But it's always getting rid of the ones because it's eighty twenty rule rate is eighty percent of your problems at the bottom twenty percent. In fact in fact a ninety percent of your problems are probably the bottom five. Absolutely i was. Yeah yeah yeah. And all the all the frustrations headaches and heartaches if you have or those few people at the bottom and if but if you're not going to market and you don't have mitch much lead flow you.

"But you're not doing anything to replace the employment of person that might otherwise go to work for amazon d- ever right to complain if you're still buying from amazon and you don't agree with their practices. Do you have a right to complain. Amazon is just gonna keep growing. It's inevitable they're gonna hire more and more people it's gonna move into areas that are royal in in a lot of these rural locations throughout the us. There aren't any other large sources of employment. Is that where maybe the farm sector could come in. Now i don't forsee the average small-farm hiring thousands of workers. I get that but you could hire a few in order to hire a few you have to grow bigger as a small business owner. You heavy tool for change at your disposal. How you use or don't use that tool is up to you. Expansion is one of the tools in your business. Toolkit it allows you to hire more people. It allows you to employ people with labor practices that you deem best it allows you to hire and promote people who you feel are best. It allows you to control the narrative even on a small scale at allows you to control the statistics. Even if on a small scale it can hand make a difference. Even if it's just a small one so you might be thinking. Well okay. Maybe i do need to expand. If i wanna make a change but do i just keep growing growing. Maybe let's be honest if we wanna change the food system if we wanted change environmental practices and improve land in carbon sequestration. If we want to change employment doing it on a large scale by definition makes a bigger difference. Small is great but you can only get so far. The system can only get so far cooperator by quarter acre when you have thousand acre mega-farms in reality. The little small farm isn't making a huge difference in. If you're at all mission driven you wanna see change. You have to grow bigger to make more change to make a bigger change now. Where does it stop. You know eventually you could become the amazon farming and you're so big that it creates its own problem so where it stops is different from all of us and clearly amazon is struggling. with hailing. they set out to build the best consumer business possible. And jeff bezos has been quoted as saying we're going to be earth's best employer and earth's safest place to work. That's what they're trying to do. But it's scale it's tough. They lost some of their culture. Along the way and admittedly. They've said that there's something unique. Allowed a small business. In the way that the owner of the company in the managers of the company kim become can transcend the business and become more of a family. So if you're not thinking about expanding. I at least wanted to plant the seed. Reading this article on amazon was was pretty eye-opening to me. It's got me thinking differently in thinking about our roles or duties as small business owners. What should we do and is it enough to make a difference in our own lives through business or should we also strive to make a difference in other people's lives. Hey it's great to be self employed. It's great to have your family being self sufficient and not having to work for anybody else but there's something isolating about that. It's like these homesteaders. Who want who hate the system. So they go by a piece of land out in the middle of nowhere in live there will would change if you made to the system that you despise talk down against all you've done is kind of ran and hide away by yourself in the middle of nowhere instead of staying where you're at in that community and actually trying to make a difference in trying to make a local change business is no different. If you don't like what big companies are doing and you have a small company then empower your small company to create the conditions that you want to see in the world. it's hard it's uncomfortable at might take some of us down a business road that we don't know wooded saliva like but that's anything if you wanna make a difference. The easy route isn't where change happens. It's on the unknown route. So think about your business in where it's going in what you believe in. Is it enough just to support you and yours in change your life. What do you want to grow in. Have the chance the privilege to change other people's lives his. Well think about that one.
