Tudor Dixon: The People of Michigan Are Ready for Change
"Her during the debate My question to you is in the last stage of this campaign how are you feeling about the campaign And is it all go in every direction including your ground game Absolutely I literally just walked off the rally stage to come back and talk to you We have hundreds of people coming to our events The energy is just amazing out here People are really ready for a change And I think the debate was great for us from one standpoint I mean obviously she went up there and lied And she said that the kids were out of school for three months when they were out of school for almost two years and some districts in the state of Michigan But it wasn't just that She's really been hiding She's been running the Biden campaign from the basement not coming out when she was trying to be vice president of the United States She was on national television every single day We haven't seen her at all And I think she knew that coming out and being on television again would take people back to those times when she just continually shut them down Shut down restaurants for 8 months Took kids back out of school Made sure movie theaters couldn't be open Crushed to crush livelihoods and lives And people saw that again and they saw her lying on the debate stage and they went well wait a minute We know what this was like We don't want to go back there And in fact it would be different if she came out on the debate stage and said look I'm going to figure out how to get money back in your pockets I'm going to make sure inflation is not as bad in the state of Michigan that we can give you some sort of relief here in this state And I'm going to make sure that we have safe cities instead of having four of the most dangerous cities in America We're going to go back to having a safe cities And I'm going to help businesses She didn't say any of that All she came out and said was you know my opponent thinks that books are more dangerous than guns Guess what In the state of Michigan we should protect kids from every danger And so trying to pick and choose And when you belittle parents that are concerned about the books that are in schools then those people are going to turn against you when it comes to voting day

Tudor Dixon: Democrats Have Nothing to Run On
"The president of the United States just went on TV and trashed the entire Republican Party in virtually every candidate who's running in the Republican Party Said nothing about inflation the economy the future of the country What do you think about this What do I think about this This is insane This is we are now in crazy town where we are they have nothing to run on Look at what they've done They've crushed American energy They have a completely open border although I would argue that the border is not completely open We have a border that is completely controlled by the cartels and they're making millions of dollars off of hurting people that are coming across the border Look at the state of Michigan Gretchen wimmer is completely in the bag with Joe Biden Following his policies on energy trying to shut down our pipeline here in the state so that she can crush businesses even more and cost more people more to put gas in their cars and heat their homes They have nothing to run on because all they've done for the last four two and four years is destroy states and destroy the country Take away all of the things that were going well And now they're destroying those And so you have Gretchen Whitmer coming out and going how can I possibly run on my own policies and what I've done the only thing I can do is continually make baseless attacks against my opponent because let's face it our plan is a good plan We're talking about bringing back education supporting law enforcement and reducing regulations so we can actually have businesses here That's terrifying to the Democrats

"Keep a close eye on the Michigan governor's race. I'm telling you, I think that the world is going to be blown away here. Joining us now is tutor Dixon. Who is running for governor in Michigan in a statistical tie with Gretchen Whitmer, Tudor, welcome back to the program. How do you feel about things? I feel really good right now. We just got a poll saying that we're tied. We know that there are a lot of quiet Republicans in Michigan, Michigan is a very difficult state to pull. We are having hundreds, sometimes thousands of people come to our events. We just saw an article yesterday saying Gretchen Whitmer head dozens of people at her event. We feel that the momentum is with us. It's been great. We have the two debates. She came out in the debate and said that school had only been closed down for three months. People were shocked that she said that they now see what the truth is about this government, what's going on. They want to make sure that we can bring the state back. They've seen the reading scores. They want to make sure our kids can read. They want to make sure you can have the American Dream in this state. They will make sure that we support police and that we reduce crime. We feel strong going into this week.

GOP House Candidate Cassy Garcia on the Damage Cartels Have Done
"Little bit about the damage the cartels have done. To the southern border and in your district, the drugs, the crime, and the cartels are no joke and he accepts money from the cartels, talk about that. Look, you know, he obviously, he's been in office for 18 years, but I am a lifelong style Texan. I'm also the wife of a border patrol agent. And so when we talk about the cartels, they're making billions and billions of dollars. People that are trying to cross our country, you know, they're paying them to come across here. People are dying. We talk about the fentanyl crisis that it's seeping through our border here. I met a mother who lost her daughter to fentanyl. She was 17 years old and she died in July she thought she was taking a sleeping aid and never woke up the next morning. And so when we talk about the cartels, they're moving and people say, no, they're not coming in, no, they are in this country. They are in this country they're moving around. The people they're paying them billions of dollars. People are, I mean, they are, we need to shut them down. We have shut down the border. We need to close the border. We need to president of the United States to do his job and enforce the laws on the book. And that's why people aren't indifferent between a way I'm talking to voters. They're telling me Kathy. We have an unsecure border. The border is broken, priced out of control, and we don't even have doctors for the 9 counties that are do not have doctors. And with this with the influx of people that working in this district, there are even on the border, it's not fair to the communities that we're having to deal with the impact of this crisis. The administration will talk about it. We have a border Kamala who will not visit the southern border. We have a secretary of mayorkas who has belittled and men and women in green. And I think we have a congressman who was corrupt and it's time for him to step down to move along and lost someone who is going to properly represent this district. And that's why we talk about that shift. This district when he is a toss up right now. People are looking at the pertain my race.

Latina GOP House Candidate Cassy Garcia Calls Into the Show
"It's a very interesting story unfolding in southern Texas. Rio Grande valley, there are three Latina conservatives that are running for office and one of them joins us right now. It's Cassie Garcia running for Congress in district 28, and she has a very important story to share about how her opponent has accepted cartel money, Cassie joins us right now. Cassie, welcome to the Charlie Kirk show. Bye Charlie, this is Cassie, I'm so honored to be with you on today as we're 7 days away. From election night. Yes, we are. And I feel like it's going to be a very, very good night. So tell us about your opponent and the story that he's accepting cartel money yeah, so, you know, Henry cuellar, as everyone knows, is a beloved Democrat love by Republicans, but then today he's a Democrat. He's been in office for 18 years, but he's been serving in public services 19 87. Since I've been in kindergarten and now he has accepted he accepted years ago bribes money from a wife of a cartel member. And people should find his I'm deeply disturbed by this. And I think the people of district 28 should be disturbed by this report. And first of all, a congressman should never accept campaign contributions from many from, especially from Rosetta, it's one of the worst deadliest drug cartels on our southwest border. And you know what? It's also shelving powder because right now he's under a criminal investigation for corruption as well.

Tudor Dixon: Press Corp Fails to Fact-Check Gretchen Whitmer
"You know she's very deceptive tutor Gretchen Whitmer I watch your debate you did a fantastic job you are not some career politician You did amazing She just lied though At one point she rather condescendingly turned to the camera then suggested that kids in Michigan were only out of school for three months Well tutor that's just simply a lie How the fact checkers weren't all over that I mean the evidence was everywhere Lansing Detroit schools were closed for three and four times that length She's the one that did this She did nothing to fight to keep kids back in school Nothing at all And we have such a miserable press corps in the state of Michigan They won't even fact check this It's so ridiculous but it did honestly people across the state went you've got to be kidding me And I think what the way you said it is so right because she stood up there and she smirked and out of the side of her mouth She said our schools were closed for three months And people have come to me and said how could you possibly look in the camera and say that to people who have had the kind of scores that we've had come back recently Michigan is in the bottom ten for education in the nation We've dropped several points We have had we just got the nape test back and it said that our fourth and 8th graders are so far behind that in some cases they believe that we've lost three decades of reading progress in the state of Michigan And the bizarre thing is you have these little activist journalists that don't understand what that means I had this woman say to me you know you really hung up on third grade reading And I said yeah pretty much And she goes don't you think there are just some third graders that aren't going to learn to read and I said which one

Tudor Dixon: Why Michigan Population Has Declined
"Is Michigan depopulating itself that is or a lot of people leaving this thing Yes yes We lost a congressman this so we lost a congressional seat because our population has declined so significantly And part of it part of that is schools because when you're in the bottom ten in the nation people don't want to come to the state or stay in the state We also have a rising crime problem So as you've seen the numbers go up we have four of the 20 most dangerous cities in the entire country So crime is rising She has done nothing In fact there were two times when she defunded programs She took away money from corrections officers She took away money from secondary road patrol And when I talked to our sheriff they told me she now has our jails full and our prisons empty to try and manipulate the recidivism rates to make it look like crime is lower than it actually is and our jails are full with people who should be in prison or mental hospitals And so our corrections officers are completely out of their area of expertise with the people that are filling our jails right now The whole system that she runs is completely manipulated and corrupt

Tudor Dixon: Michigan Is a Red State

Tudor Dixon: Everyone Will Know My Name, Whitmer Will Pay for It

Tudor Dixon: Gretchen Whitmer Does Not Know What Businesses Need
"I hope the people in Michigan have a long memory about these sorts of things Where do you disagree with her fundamentally on the policies Well first and foremost on education she is completely beholden to the teacher's union and believes that as long as you are keeping the teachers union happy it doesn't matter that the state is in the bottom ten in the nation And she has continued this trend that we've obviously we were out of school longer than anyone else despite the fact that she lied at the debate And so our kids are miserably behind We just got our nape scores back and we're in the bottom ten in the nation It's devastating to see what is going on but also on business as well Our state is has a completely over regulated system We are over regulation or regulatory status out of this world We have to reduce that by 40% We can't compete with the neighboring states on automotive She says that she's saving automotive Automotive is leaving the state of Michigan That is our legacy industry We are not in the running for the upcoming plants right now And it's because of our regulatory state and she has no business background She has no idea what these businesses need So when you say she shut down our state we lost more small businesses than any other state in the past year She shut down restaurants for 8 months Can you imagine a restaurant being shut down for 8 months and actually surviving it 3000 restaurants closed and when you talk about her choices during the pandemic you could deliver marijuana curbside but not Easter lilies So the Easter lily guy got a note on his greenhouse door that said if you continue to deliver Easter lilies curbside we will have the police here to put you in jail That was how she ran things She had a shame list on the Internet of companies that broke her rules so that people would know And if they agreed they broke her rules they're fine would be cut in half And that would be all the public record

Republicans Are Catching up in Races Across the Country
"Back to Nevada. Clark county sheriff Joe lombardo is the Republican candidate. He has run pretty much he's running pretty much even now. With Sicily in various polls. Lombardo in some polls is leading cis black by one, two percentage points. Again, this was a race that people weren't quite sure about. Just the news is now reporting that Michigan GOP gubernatorial nominee Tudor Dixon is now tied with Democrat incumbent governor Gretchen Whitmer. Now, how happy would you be to see Gretchen Whitmer retired? The Michigan news source and the Trafalgar poll just released, shows this neck and neck. This could be a Tulsa. Again, governor Gretchen Whitmer had no idea she was going to be in a competitive race. Meanwhile, in Arizona, the Republican gubernatorial candidate Carrie Lake there. Mike Gallagher just left Phoenix for one of the battleground tour, stops there. Carrie Lake is Islam. Her Democrat opponent, Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, because Hobbes refused to show up for a long schedule debate. And we're seeing that in a lot of races around the country where Democrats simply don't want to be on the debate stage with their Republican opponent. In Pennsylvania, for example, you may have heard John fetterman is making all kind of excuses, saying that Doctor Oz is a TV personality. He has the advantage. He's on TV a lot. Of course, saying that he's going to need his monitors in order to read the question. Which leads me to the question of how can you be running to be in the U.S. Senate, and you need a device to read the questions from?

How the Democrats Thrive Off Your Failure?
"James Clyburn talking about that they knew when they passed the American rescue plan, $1.9 trillion meant not to mention the infrastructure 1.2. There was another 700 something billion spent for something. God knows how much we spent and Ukraine at this point. Well, they knew the American rescue plan was going to cause inflation. They set the opposite at the time. You guys remember that, right? But it's common sense. If the government prints more money if the government spends money, it's going to cause inflation. And now they're saying they knew it. But at the time, they were saying, this is the American rescue plan. See, the American rescue plan is about a transition. It's not about helping you. You have to understand this. You have to understand this. And I say it over and over and over again. When you are successful or when the, I should say, I'll put it this way. The Republican Party is successful when you are successful. When you're doing well, the Republican Party is successful. The Democrat party, you have to get this. You have to understand this, especially how it exists today. The Democrat party is successful when you are unsuccessful. That's how they retain their power. That's where they get their excitement. They're excitement. They're thrilled. They get their thrills in their power, not in liberty, as Dennis prager explains in his explaining conservatism, column.

"It is so perverse and we're seeing it happen all across the country. I think you're going to be a mass beneficiary of this movement. So tutor talk about your website, Gretchen Whitmer is funded out of state. She's got a lot of money. How significantly are you being out spent? Well, I'll tell you, our website is tutor Dixon dot com. It's TU DOR. Dot com. Please go there. We are being significantly outspent. She has spent about 25 million in the state so far. To our probably about two to 3 million in the state so far. And she will she has booked probably another about 25 million in ads to go after us. But that's the beauty of traditional American values. And honestly, I think this is a message to people across the country. If you run on the fundamentals that this country was founded on, it is a winning message because that will always be what Americans want. And we don't need as much money. We need money. We don't need as much money. We have the right message and we have the right plan for the state and the country. I'm telling you, you go up to Dearborn, Michigan, to Rashida Tlaib's place. She could represent Dearborn, right? I think so. That kind of area. Yeah, she does. And you get even just ten to 15% of that community to vote Republican. I think the state can turn. You run up the score in western Michigan. You do better kind of in those Trump districts, Wayne county, all those beautiful places. And you get Dearborn, you get that Dearborn Michigan area, which is solidly Democrat to just think a little differently. You are talking about a shocker in Michigan, tutor Dixon were behind you, check it out to you, DOR Dixon dot com tutor Dixon, pitch in some support. She's special. Thank you tutor. God bless you and come back on soon. Thank you so much. Somebody emailed us. They said Charlie, I'm a Christian. I feel uncomfortable fighting alongside Muslims against this woke stuff. Look, I'm obviously a Christian and I have mass theological differences with Islam and with what Muslims believe and there are some people that have some great concerns that there is this kind of Islamic move to take over the western world via population rates and stuff. There's other people that believe in a red, green axis, I'm more likely to believe that, which is some Islamic governments that are somehow okay with Marxist movements for the kind of simultaneous destruction of America. But I'm going to say something that will obviously get written up, of which I hope I'm very make sure I'm very precise to my language. White liberal wokeism is a greater threat than Islamic theocratic totalitarianism currently. We grew up with a heavy emphasis in the early 2000s and in the 2010s talking about the threat of Islamic theocratic terrorism, totalitarianism, obviously I'm no fan of Iran. I think there are threat to America, but currently where we are today, a threat to our children, our way of life, our decency in our standards, white liberals are a much bigger threat in every way possible. And I will unite with strange bedfellows, of which I have very clear and well documented theological and metaphysical differences with to annihilate the power that white liberals have. Let me make one more correction, Christine Camaro is not the attorney general candidate, I believe, let me make sure this is right. She's running for Secretary of State. So okay, thank you for the correction. Our correction was not even correct on the correction we need to make. All right, so it's the Secretary of State candidate.

Stuff You Should Know

"And welcome to the short stuff. I'm Josh. There's chuck and there's Jerry. You can hear her air conditioning in the background. And this is short stuff. I got this idea just a couple of days ago, Emily and I are watching jeopardy. As we don't do every night, but we try to make it that appointment viewing. We have a good time watching that show together. Yeah, it's great. Do you remember the time we were on jeopardy? I know. How about that? It's funny because my daughter will walk through the room occasionally and be like, you were on that show. That's not sure what's awesome. So it was a question a couple of nights ago or I guess an answer. A clue is what they call them. And it said something about these two gentlemen and I can't remember exactly how it was worded, but something about surveying, and I was like, Louis and Clark, and it was mason and Dixon. And being from the south, you always hear about the mason Dixon line. They're not always, but it's a common enough term. To where I was like, wait a minute. I was like, mason and Dixon were people. And I never really thought about it. Of course they were, but I knew nothing about this at all. This popped up at how stuff works at a pretty actually a really good article on it. So here we go. And a way we go because I thought mason and Dixon were probably politicians of some sort. I had no idea they were the surveyors. You got to be a pretty amazing surveyor for somebody to name your survey after you, especially when it's the one that's as important as the mason Dixon line. Because as we'll see, it's the line that divided the north and the south, but even before that, decades before that, it was a really important line that settled a decades long boundary dispute between William Penn and the Pennsylvania colony and lord Baltimore, Charles Calvert of the Maryland colony to the south, and those two were really going at it. And the reason they were going at it was because Penn was given the land down to the 40th parallel 40th degree latitude, north latitude. And Calvert, lord Calvert was given the land from I think like the Potomac up to the 40th parallel. The problem is, the earliest maps that map the 40th parallel got it kind of wrong and Philadelphia by these early maps was in Maryland about 5 miles within the Maryland border, and William Penn said that just can't stand, we need Philadelphia, it's really important. Yeah, like everyone wanted Philadelphia one day, those great people will throw batteries at Santa Claus. I forgot about it. We need to claim this wonderful city. Don't make this show.

"Chris Dixon, who leads crypto investing at injuries and someone I've known for a long time, he may also be one of the biggest investors in the crypto space in the world, and certainly maybe the number one evangelist for web three or rather web three. Hello, Chris. Hey, hey, thanks for having me. Brian, as you know, we did a podcast a couple of years ago about your book, which I still send to new teammates when they join our team if one of the kind of canonical books. A bunch of people got in touch with me because you guys reposted that recently. I pointed out that in that conversation you and I say, you know, there's not there's sort of it's boring right now in tech. There's not a lot of innovation. That was 2018, so here we are. Here we are. It's always something new. So Chris Dixon, we're here to talk about that state of crypto report that you all put out was it this week or last week. But let me start off with just a couple of things that surprise me or that I wasn't expecting. A lot of times you kept bringing it back to the creator economy, which was the buzzword on every pitch deck before web three supplanted it. But I get the idea that you believe the best way to get to the premise of the creator economy is through web three. Why do you think that is? Yeah, so we had a couple of slides in there and specifically one which showed the payouts of various kind of creator networks, including web two networks like YouTube and Twitter and Facebook. And then kind of the new emerging categories in web three, like NFTs, and I think one of the striking things is that I forgot the exact numbers, but NFTs, it's smaller than the payouts to web two, but not by that much. And for this early in the movement, it's something on the order of like 5 billion versus 20 billion. And I think that's partly a and what that means is that's money paid to creative people creating things on the Internet. And that's money going directly to them. That's sort of the net number that goes to those folks pockets. I think it speaks to two things. One is, and I can talk more about this in a minute. I think that a lot of the innovations in web three around things like NFTs provide powerful new business models for creative people. Number one. And number two, going back to web two, web two did a lot of wonderful things. YouTube, Facebook, it sort of democratized publishing and gave Internet services that are mostly free to billions of people. But one thing it did very poorly was share that share that money with the people who really kind of built the network. I mean, if you look at networks like YouTube, people don't go to watch YouTube, they go to watch a specific YouTuber, right? People go to Facebook to hear from people they like, people go to Twitter to follow other people. Kind of remarkably, you know, networks like Facebook and Twitter, you know, their business model is advertising. They make literally hundreds of billions of dollars a year in advertising, and they share absolute zero with their with the people that actually create all the content. It's an amazing trick they pulled off. But I think it's a very brittle system. And what we're trying to do through our investing and partnering with entrepreneurs is build out a new set of systems, which I think kind of encompass a lot of the great things about web two. But also the old systems that share much more of that proceeds and kind of the economic upside with the people that really build those networks. So that's one of the key innovations around with free. So my pushback on that would be, well, what's to stop once. It's almost like these are low teaser rates to get people on boarded..

She is margin maker and chief encouragement officer for her family which are titles that. I think every mom should embrace so welcome julie thank you. Thank you for having me jennifer. Oh i'm so excited. So why don't you tell us a little bit more than what that bio shared like. Maybe where you grew up how you met brian. Some things like that. Sure absolutely so My parents were missionaries in italy. And i'm the youngest four children. So i live my first four years in italy and then moved to pennsylvania and lived in hershey pennsylvania area than outside of philadelphia bucks county and then my last years of high school were in west chicago illinois. So i've kinda bounced around a lot which made me very aware of feeling included in wanting to be invited in wanting to invite other people in Who might not feel included instead. That's kind of marked my whole life. I met brian in college. So i was a junior in college in heat transferred in my junior year as a graduate student in education and we shared a math for teachers class and we had to pick partners so i was sitting in front of him. He tapped me on the shoulder for a partner activity. And i turned around and he asked me to be his partner so we got to know each other rolfast from math class. And that's how we met and you had no idea what a loaded question that really was. That's great so. Did you learn italian. Only i was Four when we left. So i learned all the commands that you would tell a child to war like come here job that. Stop that all of that but my siblings and my parents speak fluent italian okay. Well that's cool. Well that's fun I'm in the chicago area so you were close to me when you were in west chicago but you mean true west chicago not the western part of the city right correct. Okay yes right outside wheaton yes okay. Well let's talk a little bit more today about entrepreneurship in the home. Because you're in a really unique family. It will get to that A little bit with your kids but right now. Let's talk about kind of how you're not a mom per noor in the traditional sense but you're married to a serial entrepreneur and you have kids who are getting into the action and you're heavily involved in all those things but it wasn't always that way when you were first married I believe you and brian both had regular jobs. So what was it that began to shift away from a job to creating building these businesses and trying new things. Yes so. I was a classroom teacher for eight and a half years. I taught third and fifth grade. Absolutely loved it and at brian he also taught in the classroom in went into administration higher education. A before i met brian he had been in a band when he lived in canada he had created a solo album and we realized that he was in marketing and sales. At that point he was on the phone. pre internet. A calling to you book gigs to sell the music. And so he had that in him. Before i even met him. I am much more of like safe predictable. Systematic person so. I didn't think that way. But when we lived in san diego where we were teachers doing graduate work the cost of living so high. We did have to come up with like side gigs to pay for our education and so I tutored i taught. Summer can't. Brian sold books on amazon. While we were teaching and doing graduate work and a he would listen to all these like productivity ruse..

"President for that obviously. This is just jazz. Generally but it you're just sort of your freer but it's got to be more difficult because you don't have any really clear foundation when you're creating the music definitely. Yeah so i think the other thing. That kind of puts me in a different group. That i think i leaned much more into not only vulnerability of the lyrics but also the vulnerability of the music. I feel people think. Jazz is either technical or chaotic. They don't really think about the inbetween. Actuality both of those extremes have this sort of vulnerability of either you are allowing yourself to know what comes next or you have no idea what comes next. And i felt like that would be really cool with the kind of match with the lyrics. That are very much conceptually. Like i don't know what comes next. Or i know exactly what i'm about to do tonight. You know so. It's kind of this thing where i thought that sonically matched the story. Do you start though in the same place in the same way that if you were doing kind of a more traditional wraps on you would start with a with a drum machine. Do you start with the drummer. And then kind of build a pieces up from there. Usually i will be having an experience or a moment or a thought. And i kind of will write down what that thought is and then once i write down with that thought is i kind of approach it. What is the best way. I could explain this. Like the most beautiful way i could say these words like with certain rhythms and things like that but i try to find ways that i can just push the meaning and the concepts as far as i can without it being too too big into abstract but from there once i have enough of those meaning that those experiences that are the same from different points in time i kind of put them together into one verse and then once i have a full verse like this part of the verse is very calm rapid very calm and then this part of the verse. I'll get more loud. I'll get more in your face and then this part of the last two bars the verse all calm down again. You know so once. I have that sort of like feeling that. I felt when i was writing it. I record the vocal draft. And then i sort of approach all the instruments. I think i wanna on it. You know if. I'm doing something in your face. I would love really heavy plucking or very loud guitar things like that. So i approach the guitar star. Approach this stanton third and then allow everybody to sort of get to me when they can..

That's there like lex to market right way now. Lex to markets is in that process of being redone at all of that stuff as well as a few of these other historical egg like markets. Right now likes to market has a big ass sign on it that says the world famous likes to market so why i understand the purpose of the rebranded redo because of old and so on right but is are the vendors moving in representative of what's in the city and what the needs of the city are was already world famous right. Let's all of the quote unquote issues that it had their. You know people who are buying drugs people who are on drugs and whatever else. They are claiming the proceeding this rebrand.
