00:00:47.080 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:50.220 Christ is king.
00:00:51.760 Our souls are filled with gratitude for every generation of warriors who have worn the uniform
00:00:58.160 all the way back to the very beginning.
00:01:01.200 It's latest now in the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.
00:01:04.640 The country's exchanged deadly attacks throughout the weekend.
00:01:07.040 I want to show you the scene here in downtown Tel Aviv.
00:01:09.600 That's where the Iranian missile landed.
00:01:11.860 Just look at the devastation over there in the office block.
00:01:14.380 But if we swing around 180 degrees, you can see these were residential apartment blocks
00:01:19.480 also devastated.
00:01:21.000 U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is considering significantly expanding its travel
00:01:27.300 restrictions by potentially banning citizens of 36 additional countries from entering the U.S.
00:01:34.320 In Minnesota, the man wanted for assassinating a state lawmaker and her spouse and wounding
00:01:39.660 another has been captured.
00:01:41.480 President Trump is heading north.
00:01:44.220 The G7 summit kicks off in Canada on Sunday, and tariff talks are expected to dominate the
00:01:49.240 discussions.
00:01:50.060 The president will be meeting his counterparts from some of the world's seven biggest economies,
00:01:54.280 including Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who says the future of the tariff war will
00:01:58.420 be decided at the summit.
00:02:00.080 It was on this day one decade ago that Donald Trump forever changed American politics.
00:02:04.820 It was 10 years ago today when Donald Trump descended that golden escalator in New York.
00:02:11.480 And forever changed the American political landscape.
00:02:14.360 I am officially running for president of the United States.
00:02:21.840 Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:02:26.000 Today is June 16th, 2025.
00:02:29.980 Anno Domini.
00:02:31.300 Ladies and gentlemen, today is 10 years of MAGA.
00:02:35.580 10 years since Donald Trump came down that escalator and changed everything.
00:02:43.260 Think about it.
00:02:45.440 At our darkest point, when we thought America was potentially lost, the Republican Party had
00:02:52.840 been relegated to a regional party after the years of Bush, after the years of McCain, the
00:02:59.860 years of Romney, Paul Ryan, John Boehner, Republican Party was finished.
00:03:06.480 It was done.
00:03:08.100 Conservatism was all but destroyed.
00:03:12.060 And our country was in the hands of the far left.
00:03:16.080 BLM had just gotten started.
00:03:18.120 Obama's second term was in full swing.
00:03:20.640 ISIS was breaking out across the Middle East.
00:03:24.400 But then a man appeared and he came down a golden escalator and he said, it's time to stop focusing
00:03:36.140 on all of the problems of the world and start putting our own people first.
00:03:42.780 He said the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were a mistake.
00:03:47.020 He said that while we've spent trillions of dollars in the Middle East, we've allowed our
00:03:53.720 homeland to become weak, to become threatened and invaded by migrants and illegals who should
00:04:00.800 never have been here in the first place and that he would commit to a drastic new policy
00:04:08.760 of avoiding those foreign entanglements and focusing on deporting the migrants that are here.
00:04:18.100 And everything that has happened over that course of 10 years, from then till now,
00:04:24.080 everything that his life has gone through, the life that he left, the life that he has now,
00:04:29.740 everything that's happened to his family, that's happened to his children,
00:04:33.660 it's all been because of one thing.
00:04:37.120 This mission, this agenda, America first, and that what he did 10 years ago today,
00:04:46.880 fundamentally and irrevocably changed the course of human history.
00:04:53.620 It did.
00:04:54.960 Whether you like it or not, history is the sum total of the actions of great men.
00:05:02.020 And the era of great men has now returned.
00:05:06.540 Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily, huge show, a lot to go through.
00:05:10.520 Nothing will stand in our way and our golden age has just begun.
00:05:23.700 This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:05:25.360 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America first truly means.
00:05:30.120 Welcome to the second American revolution.
00:05:34.540 All right, folks, welcome back.
00:05:47.080 Human Events Daily, Jack Posobiec here.
00:05:49.680 Real America's Voice also want to bring in the Salem Radio Network,
00:05:52.560 our three Charlie Kirk audience.
00:05:55.740 Huge amount of news today.
00:05:57.260 Also, we're celebrating 10 years of MAGA, but also we're focused on everything that's coming
00:06:03.700 to a head in our world.
00:06:05.540 And folks, I got to tell you something right now.
00:06:07.900 If you're a homeowner, you need to listen to this.
00:06:10.520 In today's AI and cyber world, scammers are stealing home titles and your equity is the
00:06:14.940 target.
00:06:15.620 Here's how it works.
00:06:16.880 Criminals forge your signature on one document.
00:06:19.180 Use a fake notary stamp.
00:06:20.840 Pay a small fee with your county.
00:06:22.500 And just like that, your home title has been transferred out of your name.
00:06:25.480 Then they take out loans using your equity or even sell your property.
00:06:29.180 And you won't even know it's happened until you get a collection or foreclosure notice.
00:06:33.880 So when's the last time you checked on your home title?
00:06:36.340 If your answer is never, you need to do something about it right now.
00:06:40.160 That's why I've partnered with Home Title Lock.

00:07:10.040 All right, folks.
00:07:10.760 So when we're looking at this 10 years of MAGA, America first, President Trump, when
00:07:16.320 he came down that escalator 10 years ago, what did he say?
00:07:19.000 He said, stop the endless wars.
00:07:24.040 Stop focusing on what's going on in the Middle East.
00:07:26.880 Stop being so worried about this because we know, right?
00:07:29.500 These warmongers in Washington, D.C., the military industrial complex, the war machine,
00:07:36.980 they see a map up on a screen.
00:07:38.720 And yeah, we're going to show maps and we've got plenty of maps, but they see the maps with
00:07:42.540 arrows on them and they hear the cash register ringing in the background, ka-ching, ka-ching,
00:07:49.200 ka-ching.
00:07:50.700 Because who gets to sell the bombs?
00:07:53.840 Who gets to sell the bullets?
00:07:55.720 Who gets to sell the fuel for the aircraft, the air sorties, the air-to-air refueling tankers?
00:08:03.420 Who gets to sell all that?
00:08:05.760 Well, of course they do, right?
00:08:07.900 The defense contractors do.
00:08:09.300 That's what they want.
00:08:10.080 So now, we saw this as of last night, two aircraft carriers are being sent to the Middle
00:08:17.460 East.
00:08:17.760 One's already there, one's on its way.
00:08:18.880 The Carl Vinson, which is already there along with its carrier strike group.
00:08:21.980 And second, the USS Nimitz operating out of Westpac.
00:08:26.900 Interestingly enough, the USS Nimitz was the aircraft carrier that participated in Operation
00:08:32.980 Eagle Claw.
00:08:33.780 1979, this was the failed operation under Jimmy Carter of the Iranian Revolution, after the
00:08:41.680 Iranian Revolution, to try to save our diplomats from the U.S. Embassy.
00:08:46.700 That was the USS Nimitz.
00:08:48.120 Now the USS Nimitz, which we're told, by the way, is on its Sunset Cruise.
00:08:52.060 So this is the final deployment of the USS Nimitz.
00:08:55.160 It's an older carrier.
00:08:55.900 Being sent back to CENTCOM.
00:08:59.020 And guess what, boys and girls?
00:09:01.720 It was, where was it?
00:09:03.780 In the Asia Pacific, in the Westpac.
00:09:05.720 So, when it was in the Western Pacific, it has now dropped coverage of the Western Pacific
00:09:09.940 and is moving into CENTCOM, moving back to the Persian Gulf, or at least that area, that
00:09:14.540 AOR.
00:09:14.860 But what is in the Western Pacific right now, you ask?
00:09:20.840 Oh, two Chinese aircraft carriers for the first time, the Shandong and the Liaoning.
00:09:28.200 So, just think about this.
00:09:29.640 I want you to be, I want to be very clear on this.
00:09:31.040 The U.S. currently has one aircraft carrier, or I'm going to Navy officer here for a minute,
00:09:37.980 so just bear with me.
00:09:39.120 The U.S. currently has one aircraft carrier forward deployed at the Kuska Naval Base just
00:09:45.680 south of Tokyo.
00:09:47.580 The Chinese have two aircraft carriers on active deployment in the Pacific.
00:09:55.660 What does this mean?
00:09:56.420 For the first time ever in history, in history, all of history, the CCP has more active aircraft
00:10:07.520 carriers in the Western Pacific than the United States.
00:10:11.340 This has never happened before.
00:10:13.440 And the only other time that an Asian power has had more aircraft carriers than the United
00:10:21.360 States in the Western Pacific, I think most of you would know the answer to this one,
00:10:25.680 World War II, Imperial Japan.
00:10:30.460 And look, should the United States be the policeman of the world?
00:10:34.700 Should the United States have all these bases everywhere?
00:10:37.420 I think that's a serious question, and I think that's a question that we should be willing
00:10:41.480 to ask.
00:10:43.540 Do these things benefit the United States?
00:10:46.820 It's a serious debate.
00:10:48.180 If we're talking about America first, that's obviously something that we should all talk about.
00:10:51.320 However, we don't live in isolation.
00:10:55.500 Things don't happen in a vacuum.
00:10:57.420 So as the U.S. is currently getting bogged into a third Middle Eastern war, and we're not
00:11:04.000 going to mince words around here.
00:11:04.960 That's what this is.
00:11:05.520 This is a war.
00:11:06.620 It's a war between Israel and Iran.
00:11:09.100 Okay.
00:11:10.540 But the U.S. is already involved.
00:11:12.340 We've been involved because we're shooting down missiles over Israel.
00:11:16.700 Destroyers have been activated.
00:11:18.800 Ballistic missile defense.
00:11:20.580 The Aegis system.
00:11:22.080 THAAD, high altitude air defense, already active.
00:11:27.500 American missiles.
00:11:28.660 American troops.
00:11:29.900 American sailors.
00:11:31.080 5,000 sailors on each of those aircraft carriers.
00:11:34.080 That brings it to 10,000.
00:11:35.940 Directly within range of everything that Iran's got.
00:11:38.960 And then, the CCP gets a free hand.
00:11:46.260 The CCP is on the rise.
00:11:48.520 And guess what?
00:11:49.440 You know who would love us to be bogged down in the middle of all that?
00:11:53.660 China.
00:11:54.680 Of course they would.
00:11:55.860 Of course the CCP wants us bogged down in the Middle East.
00:11:58.660 Wasting money.
00:11:59.760 Wasting treasure.
00:12:00.840 Possibly even wasting blood yet again.
00:12:03.480 Yet again.
00:12:04.640 Like we have been for the last 30 years.
00:12:07.420 And what President Trump, back when he was Donald Trump, Mr. Trump, Candidate Trump, came down that escalator to warn us about 10 years ago today.
00:12:17.780 You don't get anything from this.
00:12:20.520 You empower our adversaries by doing this.
00:12:24.600 And by the way, and General Flynn made this point earlier today, but if Iran goes so far as to blockade the Persian Gulf.
00:12:31.760 So, the mouth of the Persian Gulf, which is the Strait of Hormuz.
00:12:33.920 So, if they blockade to Ken very easily, they're already blocking, there's some reports that GPS jamming is already affecting the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, which is the mouth of the Persian Gulf.
00:12:45.260 20% of the world's oil travels through there on a daily basis.
00:12:49.080 Who does that help?
00:12:50.600 That helps China because they're building the Belt and Road Initiative.
00:12:54.020 They want global shipping to be shut down.
00:12:57.480 Why?
00:12:57.980 Because that drives you right into the hands of the CCP.
00:13:01.160 All those pipelines and all that railroad and everything they're building up, up through Pakistan and up through Xinjiang and up through past the Uyghurs.
00:13:09.260 And that's why they had to suppress the Uyghurs.
00:13:11.240 Why?
00:13:11.780 Because they're building roads.
00:13:13.380 They're building pipelines.
00:13:14.620 It's all pipelines.
00:13:15.780 How many times have they say it around here?
00:13:17.780 Cherche La Petrol.
00:13:19.440 Look for the oil.
00:13:21.020 So, you got oil wars, you got drone wars, and you got all the rest of it.
00:13:25.860 These are not our wars.
00:13:27.680 This is not our fight.
00:13:30.080 No more Americans need to die for this.
00:13:33.740 That's what President Trump ran on 10 years ago today.
00:13:36.320 And that's what we're focused on right here on Human Events Daily.
00:13:39.980 Be right back.
00:13:51.020 Today, you know, they talk about influencers.
00:13:59.680 These are influencers.

00:15:41.380 So folks, I've been looking at the news all weekend.
00:15:44.420 We were at the incredible, by the way, military parade, the U.S. Army parade for their birthday on Saturday.
00:15:50.400 Huge thanks to the administration for getting us right up front with my boys, my wife, my father, and photos that, you know, and the videos that went absolutely viral.
00:16:02.180 Incredible weekend.
00:16:02.900 And we were able to bring the cover, so the dress cover of my grandfather's U.S. Army uniform and the hat that he wore in World War II.
00:16:16.940 So in a sense, you had five, or excuse me, four, you had four generations of POSOs in one photo.
00:16:24.120 So we had my grandfather's hat, my father, me, and then my boys.
00:16:30.060 So four generations, one picture.
00:16:33.540 What do I mean by that?
00:16:34.540 Why does that matter?
00:16:35.780 Who cares?
00:16:36.680 Is that that big of a deal?
00:16:39.460 Well, here's why it matters.
00:16:40.280 Because for so long, people want you to believe that America is some sort of international hub and economic zone.
00:16:49.320 You know, the U.S. military, what does it exist for?
00:16:51.540 Well, it exists to uphold international values and the rules-based order.
00:16:56.320 That's what the neocons and the neoliberals would have you believe.
00:16:59.640 Well, here's what I say it means, all right?
00:17:01.240 But I say it means that the American people are a specific and unique set of people in the world.
00:17:12.340 We've been here for hundreds of years as Americans.
00:17:16.380 My family has been here for over 100 years.
00:17:20.220 Other families have been here much, much longer.
00:17:22.620 And every family that's been involved in one of these things has an heirloom like that for World War II, maybe World War I, maybe the Civil War, maybe even the Revolutionary War.
00:17:39.460 God bless them.
00:17:41.020 I grew up right outside Valley Forge.
00:17:43.200 I got married in Valley Forge.
00:17:44.980 I got engaged in Valley Forge.
00:17:47.260 My parents met and got married in Valley Forge.
00:17:50.800 That means something to me.
00:17:54.180 And that means something to the people who sacrificed everything in those years to build this country and found it.
00:18:02.800 And it wasn't done for the idea that we would go around and be this global empire focused on the world peace of nations and far-off conflicts.
00:18:13.100 No.
00:18:14.820 For ourselves and our posterity.
00:18:18.180 That's what the U.S. Constitution says.
00:18:19.860 For ourselves and for our posterity.
00:18:23.680 That means for us.
00:18:25.480 For our people.
00:18:27.600 That we should focus on our people first.
00:18:30.780 That we should put our people first.
00:18:33.240 The world's a messed up place.
00:18:35.100 It always will be.
00:18:36.900 And it always has been.
00:18:37.880 The goal isn't to sit there.
00:18:41.360 And this go back to J.D. Vance talked about this.
00:18:44.860 I talk about this on X all the time.
00:18:47.760 The order of loves.
00:18:49.980 The ordo amoris.
00:18:51.380 So I was on this debate.
00:18:55.400 And Piers Morgan.
00:18:56.200 It's going to come out later.
00:18:57.920 And they said, well, oh, so you don't want to bomb Iran.
00:19:00.860 Does that mean you're totally fine with them getting a nuclear weapon?
00:19:04.240 That's what some journalist was trying to say to me.
00:19:06.340 And I said, wait a minute.
00:19:07.020 You're trying to Kafka trap me right now.
00:19:09.360 I never said that I want something.
00:19:13.380 What I said is the United States should focus on our own number one interests first.
00:19:21.740 Our people.
00:19:22.920 Our way of life.
00:19:24.420 What we want.
00:19:25.980 Things that are direct threats to us.
00:19:28.580 And if we're going to get involved in another war.
00:19:30.980 If we're going to get involved in the sandbox.
00:19:33.920 The sand trap.
00:19:34.960 All right.
00:19:36.380 I don't want to get involved in another sand trap.
00:19:39.120 I don't want to have to send my sons over to another sand trap.
00:19:43.340 Where they can die for something that doesn't directly affect us and our family and our neighborhood.
00:19:50.640 That's what I put first.
00:19:52.140 Okay, buddy.
00:19:53.220 Think about that.
00:19:55.700 So if you're going to think about that.
00:19:57.580 Maybe you can.
00:19:58.860 If you're able to hold this all together.
00:20:00.980 Because these people don't know how to think.
00:20:03.140 But I'll tell you how to think.
00:20:05.260 I think it's called America first.
00:20:07.360 I'll be right back.
00:20:07.840 And Jack, where is Jack?
00:20:23.720 Where is Jack?
00:20:26.000 Where is he?
00:20:27.280 Jack, I want to see you.
00:20:28.720 Great job, Jack.
00:20:32.380 Thank you.
00:20:33.140 What a job you do.
00:20:34.540 You know, we have an incredible thing.
00:20:35.940 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad.
00:20:38.240 But we have guys.
00:20:39.700 And these are the guys who should be getting Pulisic.
00:20:41.720 All right, folks, we're back.
00:20:43.940 Jack Posobiec.
00:20:44.940 We got two pozos for the price of one over here.
00:20:48.480 Folks on Real America's Voice and the Salem Radio Network.
00:20:52.180 Because I have joining me in studio our field correspondent, Kevin Posobiec, who also joins
00:20:58.000 us now.
00:20:58.340 What's up, Kev?
00:20:59.360 That's international field correspondent.
00:21:02.140 Oh, oh.
00:21:02.920 We promoting ourselves now?
00:21:04.260 International field correspondent?
00:21:06.020 That's right.
00:21:06.660 That's right.
00:21:07.120 Hey, listen, I've been around through Eastern and Western Europe.
00:21:11.680 It was a great, great trip.
00:21:13.480 But yeah, I'd have to agree with you.
00:21:15.020 We're focusing on America First today and, you know, doing some diplomatic things over
00:21:21.780 there.
00:21:22.200 Well, and President Trump is overseas right now as well.
00:21:25.000 He's not overseas in a sense.
00:21:26.340 He's in Canada, right?
00:21:27.360 So he's not technically overseas because there's not a sea between us.
00:21:31.020 But he's in a foreign country.
00:21:32.760 There should be a wall.
00:21:33.140 There should be a wall, yes.
00:21:34.080 But let's talk about that for a second because I think this makes sense because people get
00:21:39.840 on me all the time.
00:21:40.440 They say, wait a minute, Poso, you're going to Hungary, you're going to Poland, you were
00:21:44.040 covering the protests in Ireland that kicked off.
00:21:46.900 So if you keep saying MAGA, if you keep saying America First, then why does it matter when
00:21:51.960 you go to these other countries?
00:21:53.160 And my response has always been because this is a fight against globalism, okay?
00:21:58.820 And the problem is, is that all of these countries are fighting globalism as well.
00:22:04.280 And so it's an irony in a sense where in order to fight globalism, you need an international
00:22:10.140 alliance of anti-globalists.
00:22:12.740 So in Ireland, they're anti-globalism.
00:22:15.160 In Poland, they're anti-globalism.
00:22:17.680 In Hungary, they're anti-globalism.
00:22:20.000 And so by working together, we can help to fight the same people because, look, here's
00:22:26.380 what it comes down to, I want Hungary to put Hungary first.
00:22:29.660 I want Ireland to put the Irish people first.
00:22:31.960 I want Poland to put the Polish people first.
00:22:34.060 And I want America to put the American people first.
00:22:36.820 And that's what it's all about.
00:22:39.420 And so people talk about Israel and say, Israel, oh, they're going to be Israel first.
00:22:42.520 They say, okay, they're Israel first.
00:22:43.760 But that's their fight.
00:22:45.180 Okay, that's their fight.
00:22:46.220 That's not our fight.
00:22:46.860 That fight's there.
00:22:47.500 Our fight is here.
00:22:48.620 Our fight is the illegal aliens.
00:22:50.160 Our fight is the migrant crisis, the invasion.
00:22:53.120 Our fight is the cartels that are right on our border.
00:22:55.480 We did a whole episode on that last week.
00:22:57.520 That's what our fight is.
00:22:59.280 So, Kev, walk me through some of this stuff, this idea that, you know, 10 years ago, it's
00:23:03.580 Trump came down the escalator.
00:23:06.620 And he said, he specifically said, and I went back and watched the video and I posted on Twitter
00:23:10.920 this morning that we need to stop getting involved in these Middle East wars and we need to focus
00:23:17.280 on getting rid of the illegals.
00:23:18.660 And here we are exactly 10 years to the day and we're having the same argument, aren't we?
00:23:22.520 We sure are.
00:23:23.940 And credit to Ireland as well.
00:23:26.700 They're not only protesting illegals, but legal immigrants too.
00:23:30.500 They're just saying, listen, we're past capacity.
00:23:33.780 We can't take it anymore.
00:23:34.800 They have a population of 4 million.
00:23:37.540 Poland's about 37 million.
00:23:40.020 And, you know, their problem is a little more highlighted than ours in a sense.
00:23:46.280 I don't know.
00:23:46.720 It could be ratioed the same way.
00:23:50.180 We have, what, 350 million in America?
00:23:51.940 That's right.
00:23:52.300 And Ireland typically has a policy of neutrality.
00:23:56.580 They were neutral in World War II.
00:23:58.060 They weren't involved in World War I.
00:23:59.660 But here we are in the United States.
00:24:01.580 And originally, if you remember all last week, Israel was saying, oh, we don't need America
00:24:04.960 to get involved.
00:24:05.800 We don't need this.
00:24:06.620 Don't worry about it.
00:24:07.480 We got this.
00:24:08.100 We got ourselves.
00:24:09.040 And yet this whole weekend, though, suddenly it's that, oh, America has to get involved.
00:24:14.680 America has to get involved.
00:24:16.060 This is our final chance to strike down the Iranian regime.
00:24:20.240 This is going to be good for everybody.
00:24:22.300 It's going to be great.
00:24:23.360 Didn't they always say that?
00:24:24.600 Didn't we hear that about Iraq?
00:24:26.220 Didn't we hear that about Afghanistan?
00:24:27.820 Oh, it's going to go so well.
00:24:29.640 It's going to go so well.
00:24:30.800 We just need a little bit of help, but it's going to go great.
00:24:33.020 So, Kevin, isn't this where those kind of fault lines get a little messy, where people
00:24:37.980 try to claim that the America first thing to do is to go wage war on some country in the
00:24:43.060 Middle East?
00:24:44.620 It's ludicrous to see.
00:24:46.220 And I appreciate what Tucker was saying on War Room today about this.
00:24:50.200 And over the weekend, we had the Army's 250th.
00:24:54.620 And if we're going to go back to 1776, well, what did George Washington himself say?
00:25:00.500 He said he wanted America to remain an isolationist country and to stay out of everything.
00:25:07.500 Foreign entanglements.
00:25:08.600 Foreign entanglements.
00:25:09.640 That's right.
00:25:10.900 So, hey, we had a George Washington on horseback going down, what was it, Constitution Ave there?
00:25:16.500 Constitution Ave, yeah.
00:25:17.220 So, are we going that way or what?
00:25:20.040 I'm ready.
00:25:22.120 So, I still believe.
00:25:23.360 And let's just, can I piggyback on that real quick?
00:25:26.240 Sure, sure.
00:25:26.600 Because Washington, people would say, oh, that was a different time.
00:25:28.940 I said, well, hold on a second, hold on a second.
00:25:30.840 America, Washington wasn't an idiot.
00:25:33.220 Washington understood exactly what's going on.
00:25:35.120 First of all, he fought and won a war against the biggest global empire of the time, the globalist system of the time, if you will, the British Empire.
00:25:46.980 They were the global empire.
00:25:48.260 But America, founded as a republic, a nation state, was founded at a time when we were surrounded by empires, right?
00:25:59.140 So, think of it.
00:25:59.980 On the U.S. continent, in 1776, you had the British Empire.
00:26:04.840 So, they were still up north in Canada.
00:26:06.440 You had the Spanish Empire.
00:26:08.120 They were down in south, in Florida.
00:26:10.660 They were in control, by the way, of Mexico and California.
00:26:15.340 Sorry, Gavin Newsom.
00:26:16.440 Actually, it was the Spanish who founded Los Angeles, not the Mexicans.
00:26:20.680 So, just want to be real clear about that.
00:26:22.180 That's why it's called.
00:26:23.140 Kevin, remind me again, what language is the words Los Angeles from?
00:26:28.120 Los Angeles, that sounds Latin to me.
00:26:30.920 Oh, so that's a European language.
00:26:33.440 Just want to be clear.
00:26:34.380 That's a European.
00:26:35.020 And what about, like, Las Vegas and San Diego and San Juan and San Francisco and literally all the other ones, also European.
00:26:43.260 Just, you know, just check in on that.
00:26:45.260 Santa Fe, the rest of the league.
00:26:46.800 You just go down the list.
00:26:47.840 You literally go down the list.
00:26:49.260 By the way, I think, just on that note, Kev, wouldn't it be cool if we actually translated all the names of those cities into English so people understood that they're all based on Catholic saints?
00:26:59.840 That's right.
00:27:00.440 And the Christian missionaries, Juan Diego, for instance.
00:27:03.540 St. Diego.
00:27:04.100 He's got a statue in the Capitol now.
00:27:07.300 No more San Diego.
00:27:08.320 St. Diego.
00:27:09.640 San Francisco.
00:27:10.580 St. Francis.
00:27:12.080 Los Angeles.
00:27:13.100 City of the Angels.
00:27:14.160 Right?
00:27:14.300 Everybody kind of knows that one.
00:27:15.460 But I believe it's Our Lady of the City of Angels.
00:27:18.640 Oh, is that right?
00:27:19.520 Yeah, it's the full name.
00:27:20.640 So, it's actually based on Mother Mary.
00:27:25.200 San Jose.
00:27:26.060 St. Joseph.
00:27:27.120 We have a city dedicated to St. Joseph in the United States.
00:27:30.740 St. Augustine, Florida.
00:27:31.100 Yeah, well, that one's still in.
00:27:32.660 That one's in English, for whatever reason.
00:27:34.240 We don't know.
00:27:34.860 Yeah, we don't know.
00:27:35.760 San Diego.
00:27:36.260 San Diego.
00:27:37.040 San Diego.
00:27:37.720 But that one's St.
00:27:38.560 Augustine.
00:27:39.000 So, they're actually.
00:27:40.340 And then, by the way, wait, wait.
00:27:42.940 Louisville.
00:27:43.800 Right?
00:27:43.980 We've got Louisville, St. Louis, and Louisiana, all based on, again, St. Louis from France.
00:27:51.620 So, we have all of these names in the United States that are based off of Catholic saints,
00:27:55.880 and yet we don't do it.
00:27:56.600 Sorry.
00:27:57.080 I know.
00:27:57.520 I know it's a little bit of a tangent, but it's like, I just feel like we have a little
00:28:01.020 bit more respect for that if we actually use the English name.
00:28:05.220 So, let's keep going down the list.
00:28:06.440 For instance, like, even when we came, it was New York or New Hampshire.
00:28:13.080 So, some of the names were from the old world, but it was new.
00:28:17.340 All of them.
00:28:18.040 Establishing the difference.
00:28:18.820 All of them.
00:28:19.520 Yep.
00:28:19.860 All of them.
00:28:20.300 Philadelphia, right?
00:28:22.460 Alexandria.
00:28:23.520 So, these were all based on ancient names from the ancient world, but it was meant to
00:28:27.880 be an extension of that world, the Christian world, Christendom, into the new world.
00:28:34.420 But going through just based on the empire levels.
00:28:37.200 So, we had what?
00:28:38.720 We had the British Empire.
00:28:39.560 The French Empire, of course, had Louisiana.
00:28:42.520 Louisiana Purchase.
00:28:43.620 Just mentioned that.
00:28:44.560 The Spanish Empire.
00:28:45.860 Here's one that everybody forgets.
00:28:47.340 Here's one that everybody forgets.
00:28:48.460 You ready for this?
00:28:49.780 Who owned Alaska?
00:28:52.960 That was Russia, wasn't it?
00:28:54.160 The Russian Empire.
00:28:55.480 So, the Russian Empire was here on this continent as well.
00:28:58.720 So, do you mean to tell me for a second that George Washington was just stupid when he
00:29:02.960 was talking about this?
00:29:03.880 Did he not understand how complicated the world could be?
00:29:06.620 The Ottoman Empire was still in full swing.
00:29:08.340 So, the U.S., one of the first wars that the United States fought was against the Ottomans
00:29:12.120 because of the Barbary pirates, and they were pressing our American sailors and merchants
00:29:16.300 in the Mediterranean into their service under the Ottoman Empire and the Berbers in North
00:29:23.220 Africa.
00:29:23.740 So, yeah, George Washington knew exactly what he was talking about.
00:29:26.600 Our ancestors actually were very smart, as it turns out.
00:29:29.860 And they said, you know what?
00:29:31.300 The United States as a country doesn't need to worry about all of this.
00:29:37.640 And you know why?
00:29:38.500 Because we have these two amazing, now at the time we didn't have two, we had one, but
00:29:42.280 we had this ocean that separated us from the rest of the world.
00:29:46.980 And all of, that's why they call it the old world and the old world entanglements.
00:29:50.200 He said the United States doesn't need to get involved in all of this.
00:29:53.540 Because we can chart our own course through history.
00:30:01.460 Pretty cool, right?
00:30:02.620 That's amazing.
00:30:03.740 I mean, yeah.
00:30:04.900 So, also with Iran, Israel, I mean, we had the opportunity to go.
00:30:10.800 Oh, wait, wait.
00:30:11.660 Persia.
00:30:12.400 The Persians were there.
00:30:14.020 George Washington knew about the Persians, right?
00:30:16.280 Like, come on.
00:30:17.140 You're going to tell me something he didn't know about?
00:30:19.120 Of course you know about the Persians.
00:30:20.000 And Israel, of course you know about Israel.
00:30:21.460 He's a Christian.
00:30:21.880 Yeah, he was Christian.
00:30:25.620 And, yeah, you were going on about Valley Forge there.
00:30:29.120 But, yeah, I mean, we got to visit Jerusalem and whatnot.
00:30:32.280 I mean, we'd love to.
00:30:33.320 We climbed Masada right here on this very program, what, three years ago now.
00:30:37.780 And I may or may not have some things, souvenirs with me.
00:30:42.680 We don't need to get all that.
00:30:45.540 We don't need all that.
00:30:46.340 But, yeah, these holy sites need to be protected, I think.
00:30:52.520 And Kevin got a tattoo in Jerusalem.
00:30:54.920 Just saying it.
00:30:57.040 It's a pilgrimage.
00:30:58.160 It's a pilgrimage site.
00:30:59.360 Check out his Instagram.
00:31:00.900 For Christians.
00:31:02.040 And, you know, it's been foretold that the end times would happen in this area.
00:31:09.520 Megiddo.
00:31:10.980 Yeah, yeah, Megiddo, yeah, Armageddon.
00:31:13.480 Megiddo, our Megiddo.
00:31:16.180 I mean, yeah, we'll see.
00:31:18.340 We'll see what happens.
00:31:19.420 Right.
00:31:19.620 And so what you're talking about, though, is this idea of do we care about the holy land?
00:31:26.560 Do we care about Israel?
00:31:28.540 Do we care about the holy sites?
00:31:30.120 Of course we do.
00:31:31.120 Of course we do.
00:31:32.720 Very much so.
00:31:33.700 But that doesn't necessarily mean that we think that every single move in terms of war and peace
00:31:40.560 is something that we have to outsource to people that either aren't part of the United States government,
00:31:48.780 aren't part of our chain of command, aren't people that we directly have involvement with,
00:31:53.780 at least in terms of elected representativeness.
00:31:55.860 We don't have any of that.
00:31:56.940 We don't have any of that.
00:31:58.760 That's right.
00:32:00.200 And Iran, too.
00:32:01.120 Iran has beautiful architecture and other cool stuff, you know, to be fair.
00:32:06.040 Well, the Persia, yeah, the Persia is one of the most ancient cultures on the planet.
00:32:11.000 As Christians, we have Jerusalem.
00:32:12.420 Right.
00:32:12.660 And so what I would say, and this is what I say to everyone, and I always want to hear this from Pope Francis,
00:32:16.880 and he said, we pray for all countries, we pray for all borders.
00:32:18.960 Yeah, pray for all borders to become Christian, right?
00:32:22.360 Right.
00:32:22.660 We pray for the Middle East to become Christian and accept Christ.
00:32:26.300 We pray for everyone in the Middle East to become Christian and accept Christ.
00:32:31.120 That's our role as Christians.
00:32:32.880 But that doesn't mean I want the U.S. government, like, you know what I mean, going over.
00:32:37.000 And being such a holy site, I would like to see what Pope Leo XIV has to say to intervene here to help promulgate these peace negotiations as well.
00:32:47.980 Well, I would love to see him say that as well.
00:32:50.160 We're going to take a quick break here.
00:32:51.600 You've got Jack Posobiec, Kevin Posobiec.
00:32:53.900 We're discussing it all, folks.
00:32:55.180 We're discussing it all.
00:32:56.380 We'll be right back.
00:32:57.080 Human Events Daily continues.
00:32:58.060 Jack is a great guy.
00:33:23.220 He's written that fantastic book.
00:33:24.880 Everybody's talking about it.
00:33:26.140 Go get it.
00:33:26.680 And he's been, my friend, right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.
00:33:31.220 And we're going to turn it around and make our country great to get to him.
00:33:34.520 Amen.
00:33:36.260 At Turning Point USA, what we are doing every single day is we are dedicating ourselves and our staff and our students and our activists for a full revival of America.
00:33:46.320 Get ready to launch into the future of freedom at the largest student event in the nation.
00:33:53.260 SAS is back.
00:33:54.820 Join thousands of fellow students ready to pioneer a bold new era for America at our Student Action Summit.
00:34:03.460 And we're bringing in the biggest voices in the movement.
00:34:07.080 All right, folks, we're back.
00:34:32.220 Jack Posobiec here, Kevin Posobiec on as well, Human Events Daily.
00:34:37.600 We're talking about a lot of these issues that are facing all of us.
00:34:41.440 War and peace, America first, MAGA, the 10th anniversary.
00:34:45.600 Wait, Kev, let me, because I talked about it, but you didn't talk about this.
00:34:49.360 Ten years ago today, Donald Trump comes down the escalator.
00:34:52.860 What did you think?
00:34:53.440 Did you think he was serious?
00:34:54.700 Did you buy it?
00:34:55.460 Were you on board yet?
00:34:56.700 I actually have a little anecdote about this.
00:34:59.020 Yeah, so I was living just outside of Philadelphia, and I remember that day.
00:35:04.280 Okay.
00:35:04.700 So let me paint the picture for you.
00:35:06.780 I was in this second floor of this apartment.
00:35:09.720 Here we go, folks.
00:35:10.740 There was a bunch of hipsters, and I was still working in the furniture making business.
00:35:15.120 And I was getting this piece of mahogany coming that I was going to carve and all this.
00:35:20.060 And so I was in a slightly different scene.
00:35:23.560 But on that day.
00:35:24.720 Bunch of libs.
00:35:25.400 You can just say it, Kev.
00:35:26.220 You're around a bunch of libs.
00:35:27.300 You can just say it.
00:35:28.280 All right.
00:35:28.420 Some girl we were hanging with, she rushes over with her phone, and she says, look at this.
00:35:33.940 Donald Trump says he's going to run for president.
00:35:36.420 And he messed up, and he said he's going to try and kick out all the illegals because they're
00:35:42.020 all migrants and rapists and criminals.
00:35:43.860 So what do you think?
00:35:46.200 And I said, oh, well, what party is he running for?
00:35:49.500 Because I didn't really know.
00:35:51.260 I hadn't really paid too much attention to Donald Trump at the time.
00:35:55.200 But lo and behold, I kept watching.
00:35:57.800 I was like, hey, this guy, this is exciting.
00:36:01.900 But I do remember vividly that day, 10 years ago, when he came down.
00:36:08.400 What did you say to her?
00:36:09.100 What did you say?
00:36:10.620 I said, hey, it sounds great.
00:36:13.860 Yes.
00:36:16.160 Based.
00:36:17.140 Well, based department.
00:36:18.620 I mean, you know my stance on illegal immigration.
00:36:20.920 It's probably the number one priority.
00:36:24.100 Tell the folks, Kevin, tell the stance.
00:36:25.960 Get it out there.
00:36:27.360 Well, it also holds a special place because of what we've seen growing up, and especially
00:36:34.820 like the car accident that we were involved in, you know, our father and me.
00:36:40.740 Kevin, no one has any idea what you're talking about.
00:36:42.260 Tell them what you're talking about.
00:36:43.620 Okay.
00:36:44.040 So we used to have a family horse farm.
00:36:46.460 Three minutes.
00:36:46.960 Growing up back in the day.
00:36:48.600 It wasn't ours.
00:36:49.060 It was our aunt and uncle's.
00:36:49.820 And, yeah, so one day we're coming down the road to go visit our cousins, hanging out on
00:36:56.760 the farm.
00:36:57.680 It's like 2002?
00:36:59.200 Yeah.
00:37:00.100 Everything, everybody, all the trad wives and stuff want today.
00:37:04.020 It's like we had.
00:37:05.660 And so me and my dad are driving down.
00:37:08.040 We get T-boned at the bottom of this hill thing.
00:37:10.720 Like it's right where the entrance is.
00:37:12.600 We get T-boned.
00:37:13.440 You were in a T-boned accident.
00:37:14.700 You and dad, you were in the passenger seat.
00:37:16.680 Dad was in the driver's seat.
00:37:17.160 Illegal immigrant driver.
00:37:18.700 Almost paralyzed my dad, you know.
00:37:21.080 He still can't hear out of one ear.
00:37:23.480 Immediately said he had back pain.
00:37:25.500 He didn't want to unbuckle his seatbelt because he didn't know if anything was wrong.
00:37:30.460 So.
00:37:30.840 Dad.
00:37:31.360 Dad.
00:37:31.920 Yeah.
00:37:32.560 Dad.
00:37:32.960 And I jump out of the car and I look over and this, I don't know if he was Mexican,
00:37:39.920 Guatemalan or what, he starts waving his hand.
00:37:41.800 He's like, oh my gosh, is everyone okay?
00:37:43.440 Like, please don't call the cops.
00:37:44.800 Please don't call the cops.
00:37:45.700 I don't have any papers.
00:37:47.580 So.
00:37:49.140 I.
00:37:49.640 It was right outside Philadelphia.
00:37:51.160 Yeah.
00:37:51.820 Anywhere near the southern border.
00:37:53.640 So I run over, get mom.
00:37:55.700 I call the cops, this and that.
00:37:58.280 And you, you called me at work.
00:37:59.520 I was still at work at court, I believe.
00:38:00.740 I thought, I thought you were messing with me.
00:38:02.500 I thought, I thought I was messing with her too.
00:38:04.680 I thought you were screwing around.
00:38:05.940 I thought you were like, I was like very funny, Kev.
00:38:08.560 And you know, like whatever, like I'll, I'll see you guys later or something.
00:38:14.440 And no, you're dead serious.
00:38:15.540 And I, I remember going to the hospital, going to the ER, seeing dad on the, you know.
00:38:20.900 So that's what needs to be talked about more.
00:38:23.180 You know, these people getting in car accidents, not having insurance, these people coming to
00:38:28.640 hospitals, overwhelming the hospitals, the healthcare, you know, they're illegals.
00:38:34.020 They're not, they shouldn't be here.
00:38:36.180 It's against the law.
00:38:37.080 But how do they get preferential treatment?
00:38:39.320 How do they get, you know, arrested and then released right away in these sanctuary cities?
00:38:44.160 Like it, I'm, I'm done with it.
00:38:46.580 I've been done with it for over a decade.
00:38:48.300 And I wrote about it.
00:38:49.400 I remember writing essays about this in eighth grade.
00:38:52.560 So that will continue to be my most paramount issue.
00:38:57.680 They could have killed our dad.
00:38:59.740 Could have killed our dad.
00:39:00.780 Could have killed you too.
00:39:01.420 And that's it.
00:39:03.740 And that's it.
00:39:04.580 The people, and let me tell you something.
00:39:05.900 You want to talk about rate of crime?
00:39:07.400 I'll tell you something.
00:39:08.420 We could prevent the rate of 100% of illegal alien crime by getting them all out.
00:39:17.280 Every single one.
00:39:18.260 And that's why we back President Trump.
00:39:20.200 He just, he saw that thing you put up on Truth last time.
00:39:22.240 That's right.
00:39:22.580 He posted it.
00:39:23.380 Mass deportations.
00:39:24.160 Mass deportations.
00:39:25.060 And nobody else in.
00:39:26.740 Look, look, folks, the world's a messed up place.
00:39:30.380 But you know what else has messed up?
00:39:31.900 The United States.
00:39:33.080 Let's put America first.
00:39:34.340 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have our permission.
00:39:36.340 We'll ensure.
