Breaking Points with Crystal Ball & Saagar ( Left & right talking points although Saagar is not into Trump)

They cover what’s happening on both sides.

Turning Points big July debate between anti genocide Libertarian Dave Smith and pro Israel Josh Hammer was carried on many podcasts and discussed for weeks on social media. Tucker spoke too and now that Tucker is anti Israel - it was huge news all over web.

Unfortunately- kids all know who Charley Kirk is because of 3000 Turning Points chapters at high schools and college.

Here is Galvin Newsome telling Charlie Kirk that Galvon’s 13 yr old son wanted to skip school to meet Charlie.

NEW: California Governor Gavin Newsom tells Charlie Kirk that his son is a massive Charlie Kirk fan. Galvin admits Kirk is gaining with youth.

Newsom: My son really wanted to meet you.

Kirk: You let him to take off school?

Newsom: No. Of course not. He's not here for a good reason.

Kirk: Well you cancelled school for like two years, what’s one day going to do?
