Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here, live from the Bitcoin.com studio. Today on the Charlie Kirk Show, the right-wing revolution continues as we predicted last summer. We talk about triple trending counties, and then also Senator Mike Lee talks about the big beautiful bill and why he is a no. And then finally... My grudge against Jake Tapper continues. That's right. I'm not getting over it.

Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

And London won, just for the record.
So I'm actually happier to be in Washington, D.C. than in London. Because at least in this town, we have President Donald Trump in office. We have Kash Patel. We have Dan Bongino. We have Pam Bondi. We have Bobby Kennedy. But boy, this place is not my favorite. I will say this, though. I will definitely take Spanish over the Arabic outside stores.
I will say that I would much rather have a nice little bodega of some guy from Nicaragua that at least believes in Jesus and doesn't want to conquer the entire Western world than what I saw in London. Take it. It's not ideal, but I'll definitely take it. The city definitely does feel different than from Biden's term. The city finally has life.

Chapter 4: What are triple trending counties and why are they significant?
The New York Times every so often has a little glimmer of hope that they still are holding on to one to be a respectable newspaper. And Andrew will tell you, we deal with reporters in every single major outlet. At least the New York Times will allow us to talk to them. Some of these major outlets, they won't even take your phone call.
Anyway, so what the New York Times did is they did a story of how all the counties – basically how many counties have been moving right in America in the last three presidential elections. And that's what was so interesting about what the New York Times did.
the 2020 and the 2024 electoral map, because that is now three election cycles over the course of a decade of whether or not this is a permanent right wing shift in our country. And the visuals are very powerful. We can put them up on screen. They are dramatic. And they coined a term, and I like it, and I want to emphasize it. Let's get the actual national map up on screen.
So what you're seeing here is the percentage with a college degree by county that shifted right. If you're on podcasting or radio, we're going to put this up on screen. But the big one is 220. Let's put 220 up on screen.
I want to get this framed in our office because that just goes to show the behemoth of the work that we accomplished at Turning Point Action alongside, obviously, President Trump and the entire team and the social media juggernaut. The entire country moved to the right. It's not just one localized area. Now, there were some places in America that moved to the left.
The suburbs of Atlanta, big problems, everybody. Huge. In fact, the suburbs of Atlanta and the exurbs of Atlanta were the most left-leaning, left-tilting per capita of any counties in the country in the last three election cycles. The suburbs of Denver, Santa Fe, New Mexico, a couple places in Oklahoma, a couple places in central Indiana. So we have a Georgia problem. We're going to diagnose that.
We're going to do an entire show. on that in a different time. Dallas a little bit, but nothing too noteworthy. But again, let's go back to the red map. I mean, these are the counties that, just to be clear, let's go back. These are the counties that moved right in all three elections that Trump ran in. Almost 50 million people live in these counties. So this is not just some sample size.
And these are counties that were otherwise blue strongholds. As you can see in Florida, every single county moves dramatically to the right. So basically what The New York Times put together is something called triple trending counties. These are counties that trended to the right in all three elections that were previously.
controlled by Democrats, the first of which is something a county called Clinton County, New York. The historical trend was that it was traditionally a Democrat-leaning county. Clinton County, New York is a great example of how the Republican Party has remade the electorate and remade the political map. In recent elections, in 2008, Barack Obama won it by 22 points.

Chapter 5: How does the New York Times describe the shift in American counties?
But it really goes to show that in the central and eastern time zone, there is a consistency. That has moved dramatically in our direction. The map is no accident. But the more interesting part of this is who is moving to the right. These triple trending counties show us that it is the working class. President Trump has made gains in six times as many counties as Democrats.
in his three runs for the presidency. And his gains have come predominantly with working class voters earning less than $100,000 a year. The erosion of working class support among black, white, and Latino voters alike is the number one political story of this generation. And here's the key.
There's a lot more of them than there are elitist academics and overly educated beyond their intelligence types. If you work with your hands, if you shower before and after work, you've been on the losing end of globalization, of wokeness and offshore. Democrats are only making gains with one group of people, highly educated, rich people, those with luxury beliefs and abstractions.
You can see the income graph. It is chilling. Democrats keep on gaining with the group. The wealthier you are, the more likely you are to be in the Democrat Party. If you drive a forklift, you're more likely to be in our category. Now, interestingly, there was a story this morning from Axios that I want to highlight, which is going to be a major story, and it's worth emphasizing.
It ties all of this together, which is a top artificial intelligence CEO foresees a white-collar bloodbath. Now, interestingly, we are not yet going to see the blue collar bloodbath. Robotics is coming, but it's not yet there. It's still a slow mover. The humanoid robots still struggle to do the very basic human tasks and be able to do them at scale.
For decades, and this is the irony, elites were very smug about their own economic security compared to blue collar people. They used to say, learn to code, you carpenter. Learn to code. It doesn't matter that we shipped your factory job overseas to Wuhan, China. I got this fancy degree. I deserve this. You see, according to this story, it's pretty amazing.
Looking around the corner, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodi, who's building the technology, says AI could wipe out half of all of the entry-level white-collar jobs. I wonder who's been predicting this on a college campus, telling all these kids they're being scammed. You notice it gets very quiet when I'm on a college campus and I say this.
I say, you guys realize that your entry-level jobs are not going to be here in five years. Deep down they know. They know they have been totally scammed. AI could wipe out half of all those jobs. Unemployment could spike to 10 to 20% in the next one to five years. Possible.
Possible mass elimination of jobs across technology, finance, law, consulting, and other white-collar professions, especially entry-level gigs. And this is not something that necessarily should be celebrated. But now a lot of degree holders are in grave danger, the same degree holders that are voting for the Democrat Party thinking the Democrat Party is going to protect them.

Chapter 6: What is the impact of AI on white-collar jobs?
I suspect it'll take place over the next four weeks. During the month of June, you're going to see aggressive action within the Senate. I think you'll see finished product coming out of the Senate, most likely by the end of June. And then what happens from there will be up to the House of Representatives. But I think it'll be that much closer to passing into law.
And I look forward to being part of that effort and look forward to getting this thing passed. Look, nobody, not one person wants to see these Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions lapse, resulting in this $4 trillion tax bomb exploding. And I intend to be part of the solution and get this thing done.
So, and finally, Senator, let's just talk about for a minute here, what are some of the positives of the bill that you want to make sure the audience is aware of that is not getting enough attention? Border security, no tax on tips, please, Senator.
Yeah. So border security is a big deal. We've got to make sure that we have the tools to deal with that. We've had more illegal immigration than we've ever seen over the last four years. It's just been absolute uncontrolled chaos. which was sadly part of a design of the president's auto pen administration.
Um, we, we have also got, uh, uh, provisions making sure the tax cuts and jobs act, uh, um, tax cuts don't expire. Um, we've got no tax on tips. That's a very good, very popular provision. And, uh, we, we do bring about a lot of the reforms that I mentioned through, uh, provisions of my America first act were adopted by the house.
that get rid of a lot of the federal benefits from going to illegal aliens. And so those are all good things. We're going to build on those. We're going to make things better in the Senate. We'll get this thing passed.
Very good. Senator, keep fighting hard. We'll be watching closely. Thank you so much.
Thank you.
