What valuable possessions should you securely store?

Tucker Carlson 0:00
Where do you keep your most valuable possessions? Not your necktie or a pair of socks, but things you wouldn't want to replace or maybe couldn't. Heirlooms from your parents, your birth certificate, your firearms, your grandfather's shotgun. Where do you store those? Under the bed? The back of a closet? No, that's unwise and maybe unsafe. Liberty Safe is the place to store them. I would know. I have a colonial safe from Liberty Safe. It's in my garage. It's the best. I keep everything in there. It's a ProFlex system. It allows you to design the inside of your safe in a way that works for you. It's not a fixed setup. Someone else puts the shelves in and you have to deal with it. You make it the way you want it.

Thank you. Walking out is always such a trip at these things. I just got here and I feel like I missed the first part of the program. I hope I didn't miss anything meaningful. But I just want to say, I don't think I did. No, I'm just kidding. I watched it. I laughed. I laughed, that kind of bitter sardonic laugh that emerges from you when upside down world arrives. When your dog starts doing your taxes and you're like, wait, it's not supposed to work this way. To hear calls for like de-platforming and denouncing people at a Charlie Kirk event, I'm like, what? This is hilarious. Yeah, this is hilarious. Actually, one of the clips I was listening to myself, thinking as I often do when I hear myself speak, which is never, because I never watch myself, but at these events they always play like the role of you.

And I'm like, that guy is pompous, whoo! Sorry about that. We don't see ourselves clearly. But the prediction that, you know, at some point when Republicans took power again, which I did everything I could, you know, to help, and really felt that was important, I still think, you know, I was right. But I really thought that the impulse to de-platform people, or even to use the word platform as a verb, which it's not... it's a noun, don't steal my nouns, deplatform and denounce. Why haven't you denounced somebody else? The whole like Red Guard cultural revolution thing that we so hated and feared on the left that we did everything we could to usher in a new time where you could have an actual debate.
Tucker Carlson 3:28
I mean, this kind of was the whole point of Charlie Kirk's public life. And I think that... I think that he died for it. I really believe that. And I know a lot about it because the last several months of Charlie's life were devoted in part to arguing about this event, in fact, this speech, in fact, my speech here, which he asked me to do earlier this year, this summer, and was immediately put under just immense pressure from people who give money to Turning Point, I would assume good people, but who wanted him to take me off the roster. and this has all become public and the whole thing is so sad that I never talk about it, except to say Charlie stood firm in his often stated and deeply held belief that people should be able to debate and that if you have something valid to say, if you're telling the truth, you ought to be able to explain it calmly and in detail to people who don't agree with you and that you shouldn't immediately resort to shut up racist.
Tucker Carlson 4:31
You shouldn't immediately go to motive. By the way, shut up racist is the number one reason I voted for Donald Trump. And because they're just sick of it. I mean, first of all, if I was a racist, if I was a bigot, I would just say so. Okay, it's America. You're allowed to be whatever kind of person you want.
