How much do first impressions really sway people’s opinions? We’re about to find out, after technical issues and a dull opening speech hampered Ron DeSantis’s long-awaited presidential announcement. Charlie and Andrew compare Ron’s announcement to Trump’s eight years ago, and those of other past presidential contenders, to unpack what the damage might be, what the governor’s strategy is, and what it means for 2024 and beyond.

Shocking, but true: It turns out those people smugly lecturing all of us on National Public Radio were a bunch of liberals all along. Anti-woke muckraker Chris Rufo joins Charlie to expose the shocking (or not-so-shocking) radicalism of NPR's CEO, and also discusses his recent debate with Curtis Yarvin about whether America needs reform or a revolution. Plus, Kane of Citizen Free Press reacts to the hugely-disappointing news from the House.

Wait a Minute, NPR is LIBERAL?!?!?

RFK just landed on the ballot in Michigan, and right on cue, a new poll shows that RFK's presence gives Trump a small lead in Great Lakes State. Charlie explains why the surge of third party candidates improves Trump's chance of victory, and makes a big announcement about Turning Point's own efforts in Michigan.

How RFK Puts More States in Play

Charlie speaks to Bishop Aubrey Shines, who weighs in on firing Speaker Mike Johnson, the postives of Christian Nationalism, and why he is fed up with current Republicans — but even more fed up with the left’s race-baiting. Charlie also talks to Dr. Keith Rose, who exposes a huge plot to win votes for Joe Biden from illegal immigrants, and how to stop it.

Christian Nationalism, Speaker Johnson, and Illegals Voting

Charlie was eager to give Speaker Mike Johnson a chance. But after six months in charge, it's clear that Johnson's tenure has ended only in disappointment. FISA is renewed, with no warrants needed. Another $60 billion is poised to flow to Ukraine. And all the while, the border remains the same catastrophe it's been for the past three years. Charlie explains how Johnson's failures show the wages of cowardice, and sadly gives his support to finding a new speaker. Reps. Chip Roy and MTG stop in.

The Sad Failures of Speaker Johnson

Is your pastor a true believer in biblical principles? Or can he be bought off by sinister forces with a very different agenda? The Daily Wire's Megan Basham joins Charlie with a stark warning about the big money going towards promoting a left-wing, activist version of "Christianity" to American churchgoers.
