At the 2023 Educators Summit, Charlie argues that education must do far more than just fill students with information. It also must teach them to recognize truth, discern good from evil, and live virtuous lives. Charlie explains why wisdom requires discipline, moral formation, and a foundation in biblical truth. If schools abandon wisdom, Charlie warns, the consequences extend far beyond the classroom. Watch every episode ad-free on members.charliekirk.com!    Get new merch at charliekirkstore.com!

As the midterms approach, an unsettling problem has become obvious: As the Trump Administration delivers on its biggest promises, like fixing the border and stopping trans lunacy, voters become forgetful rather than grateful.

Scott Greer responds to the ultra-viral Cornell fraternity story, and Evan Barker explains the real reason that black majority schools are failing — and it's not due to lack of money.
