“Cancel culture is powerful because we put up with it.” What if speaking the truth—even when it costs you—was the only way to keep your freedom? In this timeless throwback of Dropping Bombs, the late Charlie Kirk—founder of Turning Point USA and host of The Charlie Kirk Show—goes straight at cancel culture, free speech, and the small actions that actually move the needle. Be the same person in public as you are in private. Vote with your dollars. Build your own audience. Don’t let silence hand the mob a win. From Jon Gruden to buy-cotts, school boards, city councils, and the slow grind to reclaim your community—this is a blueprint for courage in real life, not just online.

 

As a powerhouse conservative voice who mobilized millions of young voters, Charlie doesn’t hedge on the hot buttons: life begins at conception, boycotts work, and mindset shifts beat outrage every time. A key Trump ally, Forbes 30 Under 30 alum, and bestselling author (The MAGA Doctrine, Right Wing Revolution), he hammers the playbook: build your own audience, support the good guys, and refuse to let the regime win. If you’re done with power games, here’s your wake-up call: sacrifice, speak out, and make your actions count—because saving America isn’t a quick fix.
