CHARLIE KIRK (HOST): We are in a state of national mourning as we should be, and the Democrats, they're so despicable. The Democrats are not lifting a finger to remember the well over 100 people that have died in Texas hill country. What you are not being told by the media anywhere is that the death toll likely would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI. This Texas tragedy is just the latest example. It's not just incompetence. This is DEI working to undermine meritocratic institutions, and more people likely died than otherwise would have because of DEI. Let me prove it to you.
In 2014, the Obama administration sued the Austin fire department, about 11 years ago, fire union for supposed racial discrimination resulting in a settlement. So the Obama administration was so worried that the fire department in Austin, Texas was racist because, you know, when you're putting out fires, you gotta make sure that you have a diverse fighting force. All jokes aside, well, the pressure was on the city to prove its diversity credentials. So a few years later, they picked Joel Baker as their first Black fire chief. He announced right away that promoting diversity is one of his top priorities. They brought him in from Atlanta, and his priority was not putting out fires or being prepared for floods. No. His priority was to make sure that the fire department was Blacker.

LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): Don't you love how suddenly the Democrats are caring about the Epstein files?
[…]
INGRAHAM: Hakeem Jeffries is worried about that because they really pushed for release of files, if they exist, during the four years of Joe Biden. Look, they don't care about transparency. We know that. They think somehow this will hurt Trump, even though if it was going to hurt Trump, Biden obviously would have released it. It looks like it's already starting to backfire.

INGRAHAM: So, the media, on top of all that — so, the voters, they care about their jobs, their healthcare, the kids' school, crime, the border.
But the media's been hyping this idea of, well, Trump, you've got to hire a special prosecutor. You've got to appoint a special prosecutor. Okay, I think they've kind of dismissed that.
But my advice to the White House: do not ever fall into a special prosecutor trap. Never a special prosecutor.

LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): The doomsdayers, wrong again about tariffs causing inflation. They were wrong about tariffs leading to shortages. They were wrong about tariffs tanking the market, more record highs today if you didn't see that, and now more proof they were wrong about tariffs leading to higher prices. A new report today that Japanese car makers, contrary to predictions, are slashing prices of imports into the United States, not hiking them. So, the truth is tariffs work. Always have, always will. They boost our manufacturing and force others to get more competitive.
