00:00:55.400Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:00:59.660Today is July 17th, 2026, Anno Domine, and we are here live at CPAC UK, CPAC GB, here
00:01:09.120in London, England, and I had the honor not only to speak here in the UK, in London, but
00:01:17.460also to sit down with some of the leading figures in British politics, not only with
00:01:23.980the great Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg here, who is a conservative MP, but also with Liz Truss,
00:01:32.480former prime minister and one of the key organizers of CPAC Great Britain. Now,
00:01:38.340what a lot of people have to understand back home in America is that the UK doesn't have
00:01:44.380this system of a conservative movement the way that we've had in the United States for a generation
00:01:50.280now. That only really got started in the U.S. Keep in mind, the conservative movement really
00:01:55.000got started with Ronald Reagan. And then after the Reagan era, you had folks like Rush Limbaugh
00:02:01.400and the rise of talk radio, the rise of conservative media, and then everything that came
00:02:07.440since. And I've always said that Rush Limbaugh was the pioneer of that. The U.K. has never really
00:02:12.960had that system yet. They're starting to. They're getting there. They did Brexit. They had Nigel
00:02:17.760Farage, who also was a speaker here. You've seen a lot of the rise of independent media now in the
00:02:25.300UK, and more and more is still coming. And that's why holding a CPAC here, and of course there are
00:02:32.000members of Turning Point who are here as well, to see what can be done on the ground in terms of
00:02:36.780organizing is so key and so important, because it's not just about holding an event and getting
00:02:44.020up and speaking. It's about the meetings. It's about the connections. It's about building the
00:02:47.800infrastructure. And by the way, we're fighting for the same things. We're rowing in the same
00:02:53.280direction. The fight for freedom of speech is happening right here in England, where, by the
00:02:57.580way, the idea of freedom of speech first came up. In the UK, this is where we have so many of the
00:03:06.220basis of the rights that we have, that we take for granted, and that we fight for and cherish in the
00:03:11.820United States, the UK, they've lost a lot of those rights. There are people here. Lucy Connelly is
00:03:18.680here. She did 36 months in prison for a Facebook post. I just met her. She's going to be speaking
00:03:24.840later. There are people here who are political prisoners. There are now 16,000 people year on
00:03:34.960year who are arrested in the United Kingdom for speech crimes, for posts online. That's going on
00:03:43.900in a country where freedom of speech was born. We saw this in the United States with Doug Mackey
00:03:49.280got arrested for posting on me. We saw people banned. We saw people debanked for having opinions
00:03:56.800online, having an opinion on Facebook, having an opinion on who won or didn't win the 2020 election.
00:04:03.060And, of course, President Trump gave an incredible speech last night detailing the interference of the Chinese Communist Party in the 2020 election.0.77
00:04:12.380And I'll simply say on that point, we need massive tariffs as a response to the Chinese Communist Party's interference.0.73
00:04:23.060Tariffs, and then take a look at it.0.97
00:04:24.760Take every single visa of a Chinese student or a Chinese worker in the United States and shred it.0.93
00:04:30.980There needs to be a response for this.1.00
00:06:42.980That means that if you present this in court, if you present that as something that you
00:06:48.860want to bring up, say, oh, I don't know.
00:06:50.320you want to tariff China a thousand percent on every good and it makes its way to the Supreme
00:06:56.180Court you can say well here's the receipts of what they did here's the receipts of what they0.99
00:07:00.940did to deserve this to receive this punitive tariff and you know something they deserve it
00:07:06.580what are they going to say what are they going to say if the receipts are right there and I said
00:07:11.220this last night I'll say it again isn't this an attack on our democracy isn't this an attack on
00:07:18.260our republic. Remember how we heard those phrases over and over and over? No, this is literally an
00:07:24.340attack on our democracy. It is a direct interference, an attack on American sovereignty,
00:07:29.480on American election in 2020. I'll tell you why. I actually don't necessarily think that China was
00:07:36.120pro-Biden. See, they said, oh, they did that because they wanted Biden to win. Here's what
00:07:40.900I actually think happened. I think China is anti-America. And China knew that if President0.99
00:07:51.000Trump were in office, that would be America unleashed. That's America with all of the
00:07:57.800innovation, Elon Musk, the SpaceX, everything that he's doing, the AI race, that would allow
00:08:05.460America to get ahead of China. That's what this is about. It's about slowing down America. It's
00:08:11.980about slowing down our innovation, slowing down everything that we are fighting for. And so what
00:08:17.420do they do? They picked the candidate who can't get out of the slow lane. They picked the candidate
00:08:23.500they knew would turn the whole focus of government inward, who would go after Trump supporters.
00:08:30.020and they interfered in the race and joe biden got installed in office at inauguration that no one
00:08:39.320attended oh yes everybody everybody likes to to to miss that point everyone likes to skip that point
00:08:45.740that nobody was actually attending the joe biden inauguration there's a crowd of flags they put
00:08:52.160flags on the national mall i remember i was there i looked at it never said anything like it there's
00:08:58.320a reason. There's a reason that even the Democrats and even the media want to try to pretend like
00:09:03.620none of that ever happened, just like they're trying to pretend that wokeness never happened.0.65
00:09:06.440Oh, it wasn't that bad. You guys are misremembering things. No, I remember. I remember what it was
00:09:11.240like watching people get canceled online, watching people lose their freedoms just because you showed
00:09:16.720up on January 6th. I saw people who were arrested. I know people who have gone to jail. I know people
00:09:21.460who have done time, like Lucy Connelly here has done time. Steve Bannon was arrested. Peter Navarro
00:09:27.900was arrested just for not testifying, not going along with the show trial, the show hearing of
00:09:33.320Nancy Pelosi. All of these things happened and they all happened under Biden and you cannot ever
00:09:40.100allow them to forget it. And so we won the 2024 election, but there's so much work to be done
00:09:46.720and we can get help from the UK. We can get help all across Europe, Poland, Hungary.
00:09:52.680We can get that support by finding like-minded individuals all over the world.
00:09:58.580And I've always sort of made this remark that it's ironic that in order to fight globalism, it requires an international alliance of anti-globalists.
00:10:10.460So this is Jack Posobiec coming to you live from London, England.
00:10:15.380We'll be right back with more Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice.
00:10:22.040nothing will stand in our way and our golden age has just begun this is human events with
00:10:36.280now it's time for everyone to understand what america first truly means welcome to the second
00:13:04.760And I wanted to say, on behalf of myself and on behalf of the United States, that our prayers are with all of you and the family of Anne Whittacombe, who we know just lost her life.
00:13:20.560In a horrific act of violence, one of the most savage and brutal acts of violence that I have seen,
00:13:32.580and we now know, of course, that it is under investigation for a political motive.
00:13:39.580And so we ask ourselves, what is going on?
00:26:48.060Utah and Florida banned fluoride, but that process takes years.
00:26:51.040Your kids, your family, they're drinking this water today.
00:26:54.640You need something that works now, and that's exactly what CovePure is.
00:26:58.300They're certified to remove up to 99.9% of contaminants, fluoride, THMs, pharmaceuticals, PFAs, anything that isn't water gets filtered out.
00:27:06.600I love how easy CovePure is to use, how great the water tastes, and how much peace of mind it gives me,
00:27:11.620knowing I'm in control of what my family drinks.
00:27:14.340So don't wait for the government to catch up.
00:27:46.680What can we do about the fact that we now have
00:27:50.320These political, targeted, motivated killings taking place
00:27:58.460Against figures who believe in the traditional values of our nations
00:28:07.220Well, look, I've gone to the White House and spoken to the president about this.
00:28:12.720And every time I see the president, I bring this topic up with him.
00:28:17.700I think that it is an existential threat to not only our movement and the people in it, but also to the country.
00:28:28.500Because if you have a situation where we had a Supreme Court justice just this week who was testifying and she said that because she made a ruling in a pro-life case and came down on the side of pro-life against a pro-choice legal decision, the Roe v. Wade case, that she was facing so many threats and that her home had been swatted that she was now wearing a bulletproof vest.
00:28:56.900a justice of the supreme court and you know there's there's now this debate as to whether
00:29:03.920or not that violence or that threat of violence is affecting her current decisions and and i i
00:29:09.960think that's that's fair to say because we have this you probably don't even know if it's affecting
00:29:14.220your decisions i think it is but do you know what i'm saying is the individual concerned
00:29:19.740It could be affecting their decisions.
00:29:37.700and I don't even know how many grandchildren at this point,
00:29:41.560and any one of them could be a threat simply because of doing what he does.
00:29:46.540And so every time I see a member of the family, I thank them for being willing to be so public and take the stands that they do because this is all real for them.
00:29:54.980They all have security now, all of them.
00:29:56.840They all have Secret Service everywhere they go, all the time.
00:30:00.680And even Kai, when she's on the golf course, she's got Secret Service, and she needs it, quite frankly.
00:30:06.220And, look, it's the only way to deal with it is you have to stamp it out.
00:33:52.980So yes, with the judiciary, and that's thanks to Mr. Soros.
00:33:56.160When I was talking about his excellent ROI, that's because, for example, I'm from the Philadelphia area, and we have a district attorney who's our chief prosecutor for Philadelphia, who is, for all intents and purposes, an employee of George Soros, the amount of money he's taken from him.
00:34:13.020And so, you know, someone commits a murder and they get, you know, let back out on the street almost or they find some way to make it.
00:34:20.860And he's actually been so bad. He's actually been such a bad prosecutor.
00:34:25.680And Philadelphia is the largest city in my state of Pennsylvania that the Democrat Supreme Court of Pennsylvania came down and said that every decision out of his office,
00:34:36.960They just put a sanction on him that every decision out of his office now has to be reviewed by the statewide attorney general.
00:34:50.380And, unfortunately, we have a Republican attorney general in the state of Pennsylvania right now.
00:34:56.120It's a bit of a split government, so it's a complicated story.
00:34:59.940But he's a very good attorney general.
00:35:02.380And and so we have that problem, certainly at the judiciary level, not so much at the police force level and at the state and city level, perhaps a bit at the federal with the FBI, these types of things.
00:35:15.760But that's that is being fixed with the new leadership there. And because we do we have that deep state more at the federal level.
00:35:22.520But yes, certainly in the judiciary. Actually, you know, the president, you know, mentioned something about this recently when I saw him where he was saying that, you know, the New York judges seem to be wanting to allow Lomiti Maggioni to get away with literal murder, to just get away with it.
00:35:41.260And obviously we know that the president has went up against the very same system himself when he was arrested, indicted.
00:35:53.580And I think that anything and everything that can be done, specifically, I think on the financial level,
00:36:01.560there's so much that can be done to defund these organizations, to pull that money from them.
00:36:05.900Because if that Soros money or whatever it is, is getting down or there's or there are social media or, you know, these, you know, e-money systems that are being used to fund organizations or they, you know, they fund them themselves.
00:36:20.560Well, then you go to the organization and say, you know, you will be fine.
00:36:24.120You will be shut down if you if you are found to be complicit in this.
00:36:27.780The same way you would do if it was a transnational narcotics gang or funding radical terrorist Islam or, you know, something like this.
00:36:36.700We have all the tools, but it needs to be fought.
00:36:39.780Like when we fought ISIS, it was not just a military response, an intelligence response, a financial response.
00:36:48.760It was every single way that you could do that.
00:36:51.920And so what I've pitched publicly and privately is for a joint task force to be set up at the national level, then to work with each area, target key areas where this activity is going on, Minneapolis, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, wherever it is, Salt Lake City, and just throw the book at them, throw everything we have at this.
00:38:43.060all right jack posobic we are here live in london uk i think as far as i know this is the first uh
00:38:53.420in-person interview i've done in the uk and i was very honored to do this with you the right
00:38:58.180honorable uh representative member of parliament um jacob reese maus thank you so much thank you
00:39:04.180so much for uh joining me to hear today it's a pleasure i'm very pleased to be at the cpac
00:39:08.380conference. Tell us about why is it important for CPAC to be here in England at this time?
00:39:15.740Well, I think it's always a battle of ideas. All politics is ultimately a battle of ideas.
00:39:21.160And the right needs to be putting its ideas forward. We suffered a huge defeat two years ago,
00:39:26.220and it seemed as if we were out for the count, but we're not. We've got lots of thoughts about
00:39:30.500how the country can be better governed, how you can make a success of the economy, but also
00:39:35.600of the nation-state with secure borders and better defense.
00:39:39.700And you need people to be thinking about that,
00:39:42.060to prepare the policies for 2029, the next general election,
00:39:45.780in the hope and expectation that we can win that.
00:39:48.740And so this has been the role of CPAC in the United States,
00:39:52.740sort of a convention within a convention sort of system
00:39:58.020where it's not a political party event,
00:40:01.900And yet, typically, you will see these predominantly in presidential years.
00:40:07.020You'll see a lot of, or in the past, you would see a lot of the candidates who were vying for office would come to a CPAC and they would discuss the issues.
00:40:15.080And so it would actually serve as an organizational tool for politics as well as the idea side.
00:40:20.740And it struck me that here in the UK, it almost seems that that system hadn't really been developed yet.
00:40:27.620Well, we have a very different system.
00:40:29.600And therefore, in terms of developing people, because we've had a permanent civil service, nominally apolitical,
00:40:36.480we haven't needed people in the same way as a new American president has needed people.
00:40:41.340I wonder whether that's beginning to change, because our non-political civil service seems to be rather more political than you might have hoped for,
00:40:48.100and that therefore an incoming Conservative government, one of the things it will need to do,
00:40:51.220is to have more people in government who are overtly political, rather than allowing it to be done by a closed sect.
00:40:59.600There are those of us who saw President Trump's first term and think that he ran into the exact same situation.
00:41:08.940And that is why in his second term, he worked and the administration during the transitory period worked very closely with outside organizations, Heritage Foundation, Turning Point USA, many others to find those individuals and be able to staff the government.
00:41:27.960because this was a huge deficiency, I believe,
00:41:32.120and one that was observed and adapted and executed on a new plan
00:41:38.400because where the first term, he brought in a lot of sort of the establishment.
00:41:43.800I know you gave a speech on the blob just now,
00:41:45.980and that's precisely the issue that we ran into.
00:41:48.300The first term was enveloped by the blob, you could say,
00:41:53.400and this term very much, beginning with Elon Musk, beginning with Doge,
00:41:57.080it was that sort of turning the screws to the blob itself yes and that is a problem here and
00:42:05.820i think there's a lot we can learn from how you did that in the united states how do you find
00:42:10.320people because if you look at reform and i'm not a member of reform i'm a member of the conservative
00:42:15.540party it finds it difficult to select good candidates for parliamentary elections and for
00:42:20.940council elections and it gets into trouble because they've said or done foolish things
00:42:25.340So if you go too much for outsiders, you may get people who are damaging to your reputation.
00:42:31.480On the other hand, if you go for the establishment candidate, you don't change anything because they all remain the same.
00:42:36.240So you need to be doing a lot of detailed work on who you need and what they can do and what they can contribute
00:42:42.620and to try and find people who are able to make that contribution.
00:42:46.680And I think you've done that in a way that we can learn from for Trump too.
00:42:50.700Well, and specifically when you talk about talent development and talent acquisition and talent discovery,
00:42:59.180this is something that Turning Point USA and Charlie Kirk personally worked on very, very directly
00:43:05.800because everyone knows that he went to the college campuses,
00:43:09.480and of course everyone knows about the speeches and the debates that he would do,
00:43:13.480But the real work, I believe, was always the chapters, establishing the chapters, finding new student leaders, finding the people who would be successful, and then working with them, seeing if they wanted to run for student body government, if they succeeded there, perhaps they would get hired by the national organization, and many of which have gone on into their own political careers.
00:43:36.460There's one of, we have a congresswoman now out of Florida who started as a Turning Point contributor.
00:43:53.240I thought that he was so important in defending free speech and putting that argument across that when Oxford set up its Turning Point group, I wanted to go and really pay respects.
00:44:05.640and I was very pleased to see that that was happening
00:44:08.240and that you are doing that development of people here.
00:44:10.700Well, and I can tell you on a personal level
00:44:12.440that Charlie was so excited to come to speak at Oxford.
00:44:16.220He thought it was just the trip of a lifetime
00:44:20.360and of course we thought it would be the first of many, many trips to Oxford
00:44:58.220that we don't think it's necessary to protect them.
00:44:59.920And then you suddenly find people being arrested for praying outside an abortion clinic or whatever it is, silently praying, for thought crimes, people being arrested at airports for tweets who are comedians.
00:45:11.840We are allowing freedom of speech to come under threat, not because anyone really wants to do it, but just out of carelessness because we're so used to it.
00:45:21.920And America is, I think, helping us remember how important freedom of speech is.
00:45:26.320And unfortunately, and I don't want to dwell on it too much, in the United States, we've seen the rise of political violence, assassination attempts on President Trump, murder of Charlie Kirk.
00:45:39.440I've just come from the courtroom where the hearings are now getting underway.
00:45:45.080And I come to the UK and suddenly I see all these headlines about this Anne Whittacombe.
00:45:50.860And I understand there's still an investigation underway.
00:45:53.760But I hope and pray that the specter of that type of political violence does not come to the UK and does not spread here.
00:46:01.660Well, likewise, I obviously hope that.
00:46:04.000I think we're lucky in that there are very few guns in this country.
00:46:09.000It's not an attack on the Second Amendment.
00:46:11.040If I were American, I would be in favour of maintaining the right to bear arms
00:47:22.060that there was no religious motivation or anti-religious motivation,
00:47:25.760even though we see text messages and postings,
00:47:29.440and that there's no political motivation,
00:47:30.960even though we see etchings and all the rest.
00:47:34.160And simply to say, I hope and pray that England is able, and the UK at large, is able to face these issues head on, doesn't have any of the political violence that we have, and that all of these issues, it comes back to that freedom of speech, and I think that that's something that we should always share.
00:47:55.640I completely agree. In England, freedom of speech is absolute in Parliament in our Bill of Rights.
00:48:02.540In your Bill of Rights, it's freedom of speech for everybody.
00:48:05.340I think there's something to be said for your approach.
00:48:08.140Well, it was written by a bunch of British folks.0.97
