00:00:25.820 The Poso Daily Brief.

00:00:30.000 We are in a fifth generational confluence.

00:00:40.120 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:46.760 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.

00:00:49.680 Deliver us from evil.

00:00:51.320 The path forward for the House of Representatives is to either bring you into immediate total compliance

00:00:57.860 or remove you, pursuant to a motion to vacate the chair.

00:01:02.680 We will not comply.

00:01:05.180 Tonight, protest and defiance in Albuquerque.

00:01:08.340 This is the land of the free and the home of the brave.

00:01:10.880 Dozens of New Mexicans armed with guns rallying against the governor's controversial new public health order,

00:01:16.900 which bans people from carrying guns openly or concealed in Albuquerque for 30 days.

00:01:23.160 North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un departed just a short time ago after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

00:01:29.540 Moscow is in dire need of weapons for its ongoing war in Ukraine,

00:01:33.580 something North Korea possibly seems willing to trade in exchange for satellite technology and food aid.

00:01:40.120 We basically figured out that this was kind of like a Pearl Harbor type attack on this festival,

00:01:49.140 on the Russian President's festival.

00:01:51.060 So they're really asking us to really practically take part in a major act of war.

00:01:57.120 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome on board today's edition of Human Events with Jack Posobiec.

00:02:01.660 Today is September 13th, 2023.

00:02:04.500 Anno Domini.

00:02:05.740 Folks, there's currently an active shooter situation, a lockdown at UNC Chapel Hill.

00:02:12.340 We don't have all the details yet.

00:02:14.360 We're getting into it.

00:02:15.980 Kids are leaving campus.

00:02:18.720 Some kids are locked down.

00:02:20.100 The students that are there, we don't know what's going on,

00:02:22.560 but we know there was a situation like this just a couple of weeks ago.

00:02:26.940 We talked about it on Thought Crime, Charlie Kirk and I's podcast that we do on Thursdays.

00:02:32.080 So we are going to be keeping an eye on those developments as they continue.

00:02:37.600 Another situation, criminal situation that we were focused on here at Human Events,

00:02:42.660 this situation regarding Danilo Cavalcante.

00:02:46.760 Do we have a clip, guys?

00:02:47.760 Can we play that clip of Danilo Cavalcante here?

00:02:50.640 Just look at this.

00:02:52.960 Look at this.

00:02:53.860 Absolutely crazy.

00:02:54.800 And so what you're looking at there, Danilo Cavalcante was located,

00:03:03.800 the illegal alien, illegal alien who was on the run in the Pennsylvania area.

00:03:13.940 He was captured this morning.

00:03:16.900 And actually, I don't know if we have the bloody photo.

00:03:19.860 I posted it on Twitter, but the bloody photo where he looks like Sting from the Wolf Pack

00:03:23.940 because Bortak got in there.

00:03:27.160 That's Customs and Border Patrol's Special Forces Unit.

00:03:30.740 Bortak goes in, and that dog, they sent the fur missile after him. 0.93

00:03:36.900 Sent the fur missile right at Danilo Cavalcante, the murderous, illegal alien. 0.98

00:03:42.440 And he is now behind bars.

00:03:44.720 Would say that he was taken without a shot fired, unless you count the fur missile. 0.91

00:03:50.260 Yeah, some of these videos, some of the thoughts that we have,

00:03:52.220 these aren't the bloodiest picture, but they caught him.

00:03:56.080 He's down.

00:03:56.660 But of course, Josh Shapiro, the Democrat governor of Pennsylvania,

00:04:00.880 refused to say that he was an illegal alien and refused to even thank,

00:04:07.520 refused to even thank Border Patrol while they were standing right in front of him.

00:04:13.360 He was standing right next to them and Josh Shapiro because he knows that Danilo Cavalcante

00:04:19.160 is a huge problem, huge problem for Democrats.

00:04:27.640 So they're doing everything they can.

00:04:29.800 The memo is out the same way the media sent a memo out this morning to CNN

00:04:33.860 and the New York Times, directing, directing them to put scrutiny,

00:04:42.160 scrutiny on the Biden investigation, the impeachment inquiry.

00:04:47.620 So they sent a directed memo from the White House telling them what their coverage should be like.

00:04:54.840 You see how it works, folks?

00:04:56.480 This is the pipeline.

00:04:58.320 This is how it goes down.

00:04:59.880 They tell the media what to focus on.

00:05:03.300 But something else that's going on in Washington, D.C.

00:05:06.680 that not a lot of people are focused on,

00:05:08.800 this is the fact that right now inside the U.S. Senate,

00:05:14.380 Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Sam Altman, the founder of ChatGPT,

00:05:21.280 everyone, the head of Google, the head of every tech firm,

00:05:25.920 they're at U.S. Senate right now sounding the alarm about what?

00:05:30.520 About AI.

00:05:32.500 They're saying, and Elon Musk has put out a warning

00:05:36.200 saying that AI could be a civilizational risk for the United States and for our entire world.

00:05:44.860 Zuckerberg there as well.

00:05:46.260 Of course, Zuckerberg, we know that he loves hanging out in Washington, D.C.

00:05:50.340 Why?

00:05:51.080 Because he's the one who made sure that all those guys would be there

00:05:54.400 and that the current administration would be there.

00:05:56.880 We've got a huge show today.

00:05:58.500 There's a lot going on.

00:05:59.360 We're going to keep an eye on this UNC Chapel Hill situation.

00:06:02.240 We know there was an armed and dangerous person that was viewed on campus.

00:06:06.460 So as the lockdowns continue, as the potential active shooter situation continues,

00:06:11.020 we are going to keep an eye on it.

00:06:12.080 Richard Barris joins us next to your human events when we return.

00:06:14.780 Ladies and gentlemen, one of the best ways that you can support us here at Human Events

00:06:36.680 When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with bloods, and them boys had a saying. 0.99

00:06:42.000 You can't be listening to all that slappy, whack, trimatozolitzabam ship, nippy-bam-bam,

00:06:47.300 like Human Events with Jack Posobiec.

00:06:49.420 All right, Jack Posobiec back here, Human Events.

00:06:56.100 Are you tired of progressive corporations and exhausted trying to keep up with all the

00:07:01.640 virtue signaling when you're simply trying to go shopping?

00:07:05.720 Progressive corporate America continues to push woke messaging that alienates conservative

00:07:10.560 Americans and erodes the American dream. 0.96

00:07:13.380 You see it everywhere.

00:07:14.360 Companies like Starbucks strong-arming their customers to support abortion, financial services

00:07:21.260 like PayPal canceling customers for their political views, and corporations like Disney

00:07:26.420 promoting gender ideology when all you want to do is take your kid to a movie.

00:07:31.140 Thankfully, we don't have to spend our hard-earned dollars to fund these companies anymore.

00:07:36.080 With Public Square, we now have a solution.

00:08:33.740 All right, I want to bring on now our first guest here for the show, Richard Barris, the People's

00:08:38.200 Pundit.

00:08:38.620 It's been a minute since we had you on, Rich, but you've got some new numbers for us.

00:08:41.580 What is new in the world of polling, Rich Barris?

00:08:46.040 Thanks, Jack, for having me as always, brother.

00:08:48.160 How you been?

00:08:49.420 Look, you know, there's something going on right now that I think is interesting.

00:08:53.920 Guys, do we have Rich?

00:08:54.140 It's perfect.

00:08:55.840 Yeah.

00:08:56.420 Can you hear me?

00:08:59.220 Loud and clear.

00:09:00.760 So I don't know what's going on, guys, but I can't hear Rich currently.

00:09:04.900 Let's see if we can work on that to make sure that we can get it up.

00:09:08.020 We'd like to have our guests for the audience to hear them.

00:09:11.480 I like hearing the guests themselves, but sometimes we don't get to hear them as well.

00:09:16.000 One of the things that we've seen now with polling going on right now in the country.

00:09:20.680 So we know the primary primary is over.

00:09:24.200 Primary is done at this point, just completely done, completely and utterly done.

00:09:29.520 I think that it's I think it's out.

00:09:32.100 I just don't think there's a primary that's going on at this point.

00:09:34.900 I think by and large, it has been completed.

00:09:38.280 However, when you look at the general, this is where the real action is.

00:09:47.280 Also, wow.

00:09:49.340 Just seeing this breaking news out of the Washington Post.

00:09:53.240 Mitt Romney.

00:09:54.420 Is this real?

00:09:56.040 Can you guys confirm this?

00:09:57.180 Can we double check this?

00:09:59.760 Mitt Romney has just decided that he's not going to seek a second term in the Senate.

00:10:05.540 Wow.

00:10:06.020 Mitt Romney.

00:10:08.620 I'm going to double check this right now.

00:10:09.960 Mitt Romney.

00:10:11.200 I'm seeing it in.

00:10:13.820 In the New York Times.

00:10:15.120 I'm seeing it in the Hill.

00:10:16.280 The U.S. got it yet.

00:10:17.160 Mitt Romney.

00:10:18.100 Wow.

00:10:18.980 This is an absolute bombshell across the entire political spectrum.

00:10:23.720 Mitt Romney not running for now.

00:10:25.180 However, I'm going to say right now.

00:10:27.220 I'm going to say right now.

00:10:28.840 Mitt Romney not running for Senate again does not mean that Mitt Romney.

00:10:36.220 Will not be running for anything.

00:10:39.840 Because we need to be very careful about this.

00:10:42.780 Mitt Romney is someone that we have talked about and his name has been thrown out there.

00:10:47.620 For what?

00:10:48.420 This no labels fusion ticket.

00:10:51.560 Because we already, it's so interesting.

00:10:53.480 I'm actually speaking at an event in, for a local party event in West Virginia this weekend.

00:10:59.500 I'll be out there with Alex Stein.

00:11:00.860 I'll be out there with Ashley St. Clair.

00:11:02.360 And we've been talking about the West Virginia Senate race because Joe Manchin is up.

00:11:08.800 Now, we know Joe Manchin is coming up, but most likely that seat is going to flip because he is not long for this world.

00:11:17.500 And anyone running as a Democrat in that state is going to get absolutely trounced at this point.

00:11:23.860 Donald Trump has remade the party, remade the map in so many ways that states like West Virginia are falling directly and squarely within his crosshairs.

00:11:35.920 Those people gravitate towards a candidate like Trump.

00:11:39.880 So what does it mean?

00:11:40.640 It means that Joe Manchin is done in the Senate.

00:11:44.600 So if you have a guy like Joe Manchin, who's down in West Virginia as a Democrat, who's kind of a conservative Democrat, you got a guy like Mitt Romney, who's an extremely liberal Republican in name only.

00:11:57.700 If the two of them work together on a fusion ticket, that could spell a very interesting situation for the top of the ticket.

00:12:06.320 Do we have Rich now, guys?

00:12:08.520 Rich, you there?

00:12:09.020 I'm here, brother.

00:12:11.100 Can you hear me?

00:12:12.180 Rich, we have you.

00:12:13.040 Can you hear me?

00:12:14.160 Yeah, I can hear you.

00:12:15.160 All right.

00:12:15.240 Yes.

00:12:15.740 Let me know.

00:12:16.340 Let me get. 0.97

00:12:16.820 I know we were planning on this, but bombshell news dropping right here in the middle of the show.

00:12:21.720 What do you think of my thesis?

00:12:22.960 Do you think Romney is potentially setting up something for this no labels, this no labels fusion ticket?

00:12:29.640 You know, I think that's a really good bet.

00:12:31.640 And thanks for having me.

00:12:32.580 And I was trying to text you when you were reading it.

00:12:34.880 But yeah, that's true.

00:12:35.860 It's confirmed.

00:12:36.560 He was, you know, the polling was really iffy in Utah.

00:12:40.280 This is worth mentioning.

00:12:41.580 There was one poll that showed him, you know, 40s in the 40s in a crowded field.

00:12:46.780 People like Staggs and others who the base supports, a lot of the base, the MAGA base supports, you know, were struggling in one poll to gain traction.

00:12:55.160 But in another one, it showed prior to that that he was vulnerable.

00:12:58.920 So I'm sure there's some of that to consider.

00:13:01.340 It's just that Utah, as ruby red as it is, Jack, it's very establishment.

00:13:06.900 It's very rhino.

00:13:08.180 All right.

00:13:08.540 I don't know how else to put it.

00:13:10.680 People will be shocked by that.

00:13:11.820 But it's true.

00:13:13.440 They aren't, you know, super pro-Trumpy in Utah because they're a lot of Latter-day Saints and they don't like Trump's, you know, how, let's say, machismo.

00:13:25.560 Right?

00:13:25.860 They don't like that.

00:13:26.680 They like the more polished, you know, politician that people don't like now.

00:13:31.920 So there's something to be said for that. 0.99

00:13:34.620 But Mitt Romney is a pathetic little man and he would want to do something like this. 0.97

00:13:42.720 He tried to convince other candidates to get out of the race. 0.99

00:13:46.800 His deadline is quickly approaching.

00:13:49.080 And, you know, this is something I had, you and I had been talking about a lot. 0.97

00:13:52.440 His plan was a stupid plan anyway because you couldn't consolidate a field when a frontrunner has more than a majority. 0.98

00:13:59.380 And it was just ludicrous to believe that as the rest of that field consolidated, anyone was going to be able to, you know, rise and overcome Donald Trump. 1.00

00:14:07.780 It's just ridiculous to somebody like me, even just from plain statistics point of view. 1.00

00:14:13.540 It's dumb. 0.99

00:14:14.340 So what does that leave him, Jack? 0.98

00:14:16.000 That leaves him with this maybe I can run as a spoiler.

00:14:19.440 Here's the problem. 0.99

00:14:20.160 He's going to scumbag. 1.00

00:14:20.980 He's going to scumbag. 1.00

00:14:22.940 He's going to try to scumbag Donald Trump by picking off a couple of states here, a couple of states, maybe try to pick Utah just enough to try to block. 0.98

00:14:34.340 Even if they go all in on Utah, they win.

00:14:36.880 How many offhand?

00:14:37.640 How many is that?

00:14:38.100 Was that 10 electoral votes?

00:14:40.940 Yeah.

00:14:41.100 So what the plan is, their plan, okay, it's six, excuse me, it's six.

00:14:51.380 Their plan is to try to block.

00:14:54.180 Their plan is to try to block Donald Trump and Joe Biden from getting to 270.

00:15:01.380 This is the goal of no labels.

00:15:03.440 That's why they're getting a guy like Romney out there.

00:15:05.900 You're going to see the neocon money go all in on Romney.

00:15:09.400 They're going to say, this is the guy, the principal's candidate.

00:15:12.220 It's going to all fall on his shoulders.

00:15:14.200 That will be the mantle.

00:15:15.160 He's going to try to reclaim this.

00:15:16.560 Remember, he has the Russia stuff from 2012 with Obama.

00:15:21.580 This, I can see it coming because at that point, at that point then, if neither candidate gets to 270, Rich, what happens?

00:15:30.560 Here's the thing.

00:15:31.340 This is what I was going to say.

00:15:32.300 In the next national poll we do, we were going to start to test some of this because we have with other candidates in the past, like a Liz Cheney, RFK is an interesting dynamic.

00:15:42.460 If he was an independent, something like Romney, before they get their small brains all excited, he could take away votes from Biden in an area like southeastern Pennsylvania, which actually could throw bigger electoral college states to Donald Trump.

00:15:58.340 He may not even need that six, those six electoral votes.

00:16:02.760 So it's going to be interesting if that's what he intends to do.

00:16:06.520 And I wholly believe that is what he intends to do.

00:16:09.200 I would just say the ramifications of this, you know, the Mitt Romneys of the world, we need to have some kind of definitive – what's the word I'm looking for?

00:16:19.620 We need to have some kind of definitive resolution to the Trump era in this country, which is really getting ready to burst at the seams.

00:16:28.020 If we don't, Jack, and something like this was to happen, you're going to get widespread civil unrest for a long time in this country.

00:16:36.880 I'm sorry.

00:16:37.440 That's what's going to happen.

00:16:38.620 It's not a threat, you know, how people respond to that.

00:16:41.340 It's just me being real and looking at the way the electorate is, the mood of the American people.

00:16:47.200 They're so tired of the games, Jack.

00:16:49.620 They're tired of the games.

00:16:51.580 You know, on Monday, Barnes and I were talking about this.

00:16:55.880 Could you have a situation where this goes to the House and then they end up just picking a random person as president?

00:17:02.420 Is that even possible?

00:17:03.360 Yes.

00:17:03.480 Or does it have to be someone who ran?

00:17:05.380 Well, technically anything is kind of possible, especially in today's America, but they wouldn't do that.

00:17:12.340 They would pick somebody who was running.

00:17:14.220 Again, you know, that's when congressmen and women start to worry about their own re-election. 1.00

00:17:20.380 So I'm not sure, you know, as rhino as the House is, and it is rhino, as rhino as it is, I'm not sure they have the stomach to do that.

00:17:28.420 They would have to understand, they would have to do it with the knowledge that it's going to cost them their seat.

00:17:35.680 So I'm not sure, you know, politicians are, they talk a big game, Jack, but they get scared real quick.

00:17:40.780 You know, again, I think that I would expect this from Mitt Romney.

00:17:44.620 For people who know him, he's just a very bitter, small, jealous person, you know?

00:17:52.620 So I also, again, really want to put out on the table, you know, the possibility that he plucks votes away from Joe Biden.

00:17:59.980 Because when we polled similar candidates like him, they were actually hurting Joe Biden more.

00:18:06.080 Rich, we're coming up on a break right now, but what I'd like to do, can we hold you over because we cut you off earlier?

00:18:13.300 Sure.

00:18:13.760 Guys, let's hold over, Rich.

00:18:15.000 We're going to produce live a little bit, produce on the fly.

00:18:17.700 We're going to hold you over.

00:18:19.260 We're going to finish that out.

00:18:20.500 Then we've got Terry Schilling coming up behind you.

00:18:22.840 We'll split the difference.

00:18:24.340 Coming up next, more breaking bombshell news here in the political world.

00:18:30.120 Mitt Romney.

00:18:32.080 Do not run for sentence.

00:18:36.080 You know, they talk about influences.

00:18:38.640 These are influences.

00:18:40.560 And they're friends of mine.

00:18:42.880 Jack Bersovic.

00:18:44.420 Where's Jack?

00:18:45.320 Jack.

00:18:46.380 He's done a great job.

00:18:49.300 All right, folks.

00:18:52.060 I want to tell you about one of the sponsors we have today.

00:18:54.740 It's a new sponsor for today's episode of Human Events.

00:18:57.680 Because when it comes to gardening, believe it or not, most people, if you're like me, you just don't have the time.

00:19:57.300 FastGrowingTrees.com.

00:19:59.160 Let me tell you something.

00:20:00.820 You should have heard Tanya Tay jumping out of her seat when I told her that we were partnering with FastGrowingTrees.com. 0.97

00:20:09.760 I want to bring on back now Rich Barris.

00:20:11.960 Rich, we're talking about this. 0.99

00:20:13.720 Romney setting up what I'm going to call the scumbag ticket because they're trying to scumbag Trump.

00:20:18.680 He thinks that he can block Trump from getting to 270, but you potentially have a different theory. 0.88

00:20:27.060 So let's just play it out.

00:20:28.420 We know this no labels thing has been growing.

00:20:30.760 Now Romney announces he's not going to run.

00:20:33.440 Look for Manchin.

00:20:34.260 I would say watch for Manchin to make his announcement next because we know, as Gavin Newsom told us, that the filing deadlines are coming up.

00:20:42.780 That's why the announcements are being dropped now. 0.96

00:20:45.360 So watch for Manchin next and this scumbag ticket where they're planning to scumbag Trump out of the presidency. 0.71

00:20:51.460 But you've got a potential different theory on their effect in the race. 0.70

00:20:55.600 Yeah, they may scumbag Joe Biden out of a close race, which one where you have to honestly at this point now the way the polling has been.

00:21:04.040 Even with everything going on, if you take away the opportunities they're trying to get him off the ballot, take away that and you just look at the trends in the polling and what's been going on, these massive shifts that we've been seeing.

00:21:16.720 It might actually hurt Joe Biden more than it will hurt Donald Trump.

00:21:21.020 So bear with me.

00:21:22.080 The YouGov poll that just came out today is a Biden plus one or something.

00:21:25.740 They were a Biden plus 10 in 2020.

00:21:29.240 Trump in no time led in it.

00:21:31.360 Some of the other YouGov polls, this one's with The Economist and they happen to be like the least Trumpy along with Yahoo News.

00:21:37.680 But they all show what we saw in our new national poll I sent over to you.

00:21:41.620 The New York Times is seeing, Emerson is seeing.

00:21:44.020 If you look at who these voters are that are shifting away from Biden and to Donald Trump, there is basically no chance that Mitt Romney would even appeal to these people.

00:21:53.240 Everyone who is in 2020, 100,000 or more actually went to Trump for household income.

00:21:59.460 That is the only group that has gotten more pro-Biden.

00:22:03.440 It went from Trump plus two in this poll today in 2020 to Biden plus around 15.

00:22:10.440 It is Biden plus 15.

00:22:11.600 So they'll be fighting for those higher income earners that are educated.

00:22:17.520 That's the important distinction.

00:22:18.820 Those who don't have higher educations that do make a lot of money, that is one of the Trumpiest voters out there.

00:22:25.160 Now, the shift has come from everybody who makes below 100 grand, Jack.

00:22:29.200 They're not going to Mitt Romney, brother.

00:22:30.760 If I can sneak in here real quick.

00:22:33.020 We've got Trump has tweeted truth to his response.

00:22:36.820 You've got to hear this, folks.

00:22:37.600 Oh, boy.

00:22:38.140 Trump's response in all capital letters, the entire thing as usual.

00:22:42.660 Fantastic news for America, the great state of Utah and for the Republican Party.

00:22:47.900 Mitt Romney, sometimes referred to as Pierre Delecto, will not be seeking a second term in the U.S. Senate where he did not serve with distinction.

00:22:58.100 A big primary fight was in the offing, but now that will not be necessary.

00:23:04.800 Congrats. Congrats to all.

00:23:07.440 Make America great again.

00:23:09.320 Guys, if we can find that photo of Trump and Romney at the dinner.

00:23:12.740 You remember that one when Romney was begging like a dog to be secretary of state?

00:23:17.960 Yeah, he wanted the State Department where he did not serve with distinction.

00:23:22.900 I love it.

00:23:23.540 You can just hear it.

00:23:24.340 You can hear it.

00:23:24.800 Sorry, Rich.

00:23:25.140 Go ahead.

00:23:25.440 Yeah, I'm just saying.

00:23:27.240 So you look at the rest of what has shifted considerably, that under 50,000, which Biden won by double digits, is now Biden plus two in the YouGov poll.

00:23:37.960 And we consistently have Trump up a little, Biden up a little, Trump up a little, Biden up a little.

00:23:42.800 It's a very close demographic.

00:23:44.580 That's the underclass, folks. 0.99

00:23:46.040 Mitt Romney is not getting the underclass.

00:23:48.020 That shift to Trump, even if some of them were to get cold feet, maybe they would think, I'm just not going to vote.

00:23:54.020 But that vote is much closer.

00:23:55.980 The 50,000 to 100,000 is the core of the electorate, and it also happens to be the most Republican-trending group of voters.

00:24:03.100 Trump is now ahead with them, and they just – they're not – Jack, they're not filled with higher education folks.

00:24:10.960 They're not as white as the rest of the nation overall.

00:24:14.920 They're more non-white. 0.94

00:24:16.100 So, and by the way, a 10-point shift among Hispanics to Trump in this poll that was out today also has Trump up in about 40.

00:24:23.880 Some polls have him a little bit over 40.

00:24:26.240 We have him usually at 40 among Hispanics.

00:24:28.700 He's not going to lose those newly shifted voters to Mitt Romney, brother.

00:24:33.220 They're not going to go to Mitt Romney.

00:24:34.660 I strongly suspect you would see some areas, again, like southeastern Pennsylvania, parts of – outside of Milwaukee, outside of Green Bay, where Republicans have been struggling recently.

00:24:47.420 Maybe they don't want to vote for Biden, so they said, well, I'll go back and I'll vote for the establishmentarian Republican.

00:24:54.780 There's no other word for it.

00:24:55.940 But meanwhile, pulling all those votes away from Biden and delivering some of these states that Trump would have had a hard time winning, Pennsylvania, Michigan, maybe even Minnesota is a state where someone like Mitt Romney would pull votes from Joe Biden in suburban areas.

00:25:10.860 But he sure as hell is not going to get them from the Iron Range or northwestern Minnesota.

00:25:15.760 So that was a two-point race in 2016.

00:25:17.740 It blew up to a 10-point race in 2020 in favor of Biden.

00:25:23.460 That's about the shift, eight, nine points.

00:25:25.940 That we're seeing to Trump that would make a state like Minnesota get closer.

00:25:30.400 And then if Mitt Romney's presence was on that ticket, that could be it.

00:25:34.460 Pull a couple of points away from Joe Biden, went Manchin on the ticket, and it spells doom for Joe Biden, even if they carry the state of Utah.

00:25:43.280 So walk me through which states do you think would be potentially in that – because this is fascinating to me.

00:25:49.620 I said Utah, okay, maybe that's the state that he could pull.

00:25:52.820 Massachusetts may be some play there.

00:25:55.520 I don't know if he'd be enough to pull it.

00:25:57.240 But to your point, though, he may actually dent Biden.

00:26:01.540 It would be closer.

00:26:02.200 He would dent Biden in states that we would normally consider to be Democrat states, but some of those D plus five, D plus six states.

00:26:10.840 So walk me through what would be the list of states that you would say would now become in play if this ticket does materialize as it seems to be.

00:26:19.560 Certainly, New Hampshire would definitely – would come into play because you have so many of those voters outside Concord.

00:26:27.680 There's some new arrivals from Massachusetts that make New Hampshire the state it wants – it used to be a very different state.

00:26:34.920 Again, Minnesota, Michigan, these all have areas.

00:26:39.100 Like think of a place in Michigan, for instance.

00:26:41.260 Like Oakland – yeah, like think of Oakland County, Michigan, right?

00:26:45.640 So it's trended Democrat for a while.

00:26:49.240 You have Slotkin who ran and defeated a Republican incumbent.

00:26:53.440 She's from Holly.

00:26:54.360 She played the I'm the girl from Holly.

00:26:55.960 But they used to vote for like Mike Rogers pretty consistently.

00:27:00.140 But Oakland has trended to the left because it's gotten more educated and more higher income.

00:27:04.800 If Biden doesn't get every vote out of Oakland County that he possibly can get, then Trump trouncing him, because he's going to, in Macomb and in Monroe counties is going – Joe Biden needs every single one of those votes in Oakland to offset the Macomb and Monroe margin.

00:27:23.600 And then that's how Michigan has won or lost, well, with Trump.

00:27:27.540 Nobody else really has a prayer to win Michigan.

00:27:30.180 But then it's a fight between Wayne and the rest of the state.

00:27:33.920 If he doesn't get every vote out of Oakland, then Trump's going to edge him out.

00:27:37.940 That's going to – even if it's close, he's going to edge him out.

00:27:40.620 That's incredible.

00:27:41.320 And again, you know Pennsylvania.

00:27:42.580 Look at some of those – another one, you know what I throw out there is – we mentioned this in the break – Nebraska, though.

00:27:47.900 I just think a guy like Ricketts – and I've talked about the Ricketts machine on this program many times.

00:27:53.000 A lot of conservative media won't talk about the Ricketts machine, the fact that they were clearly tied to SAS going down to Florida,

00:28:02.080 getting this super sweetheart deal for the Florida University system, presidenthood.

00:28:08.000 My alma mater.

00:28:09.340 Yeah.

00:28:09.480 You know, and I wonder how it was that that all got worked out there in Florida,

00:28:13.740 and then Ricketts all of a sudden has a Senate seat that he's able to essentially appoint himself to when his successor becomes governor, Pillen.

00:28:20.720 So a machine state like Nebraska, I could easily see that being turned over to Romney.

00:28:27.440 There's also a lot of gubernatorial elections that the Republicans should have performed better in,

00:28:35.960 that they had a very significant role in sabotaging those Republican nominees.

00:28:41.980 So if everyone thought that, you know, Ducey was the real head of the RGA, they were fooling themselves.

00:28:47.960 I mean the Ricketts pulled the strings there.

00:28:49.480 You know what happened to Doug Mastriano.

00:28:50.980 I don't have to tell you.

00:28:52.760 There's a reason he couldn't raise money.

00:28:54.640 There's a reason the RGA didn't want to help him.

00:28:56.500 I mean he basically took one look at Doug and said, you know what, I kind of like you actually, but you're a Trump guy, so you're not my kind of guy.

00:29:02.580 He did that all around the country to people he didn't like.

00:29:05.260 So, yeah, I can see Nebraska, but again, you're talking about these red states, these small red opportunities someone like Mitt Romney may have.

00:29:13.820 There are only a handful of electoral votes, Jack, and it would require them to sweep basically all of them, which I wouldn't think they would do.

00:29:21.980 And then you look at the Rust Belt, the Northeast.

00:29:25.260 Proportional.

00:29:25.860 Yeah.

00:29:27.140 Yeah, and then you look at the Rust Belt in the Northeast.

00:29:29.440 And Nebraska too, by the way, there are two congressional districts, how they, like Maine, is how they allocate their electoral votes.

00:29:37.480 One has been swinging away from Republicans for a while, and Trump really didn't need it in 2020.

00:29:43.180 He just needed a combination of, you know, Arizona and Pennsylvania, Georgia, whatever.

00:29:47.920 So, especially with the census changing the electoral map or changing electoral votes for each state on the map, I just think that it poses a big risk.

00:29:58.080 We polled, I'd love to poll it again and see.

00:30:00.620 I'll do it in the next national poll.

00:30:02.400 But when we did it for Liz Cheney and others, it hurt Biden bad.

00:30:06.680 Rich, we are just about a minute out.

00:30:09.380 A lot of breaking news during the show today.

00:30:11.000 I appreciate you rolling with the punches.

00:30:12.840 Where can people go?

00:30:13.680 I know you're going to be talking about this a lot in the next days and hours.

00:30:18.880 Best place, peoplespundit.locals.com.

00:30:22.300 All right?

00:30:22.620 Because that is breaking, and that's definitely going in a poll.

00:30:25.580 Mitt Romney with Joe Manchin, you know, well, maybe even leave out the VP picks, Jack, but it's important to poll that race immediately.

00:30:34.040 We'll see if he performs the same as Liz Cheney and others.

00:30:37.960 Throw it in there, folks.

00:30:39.140 New developments, new polls, a new look.

00:30:42.900 He's looking good, isn't he, folks?

00:30:44.400 The peoplespundit, Rich Barris, looking great today, looking like a million bucks rich.

00:30:48.760 We'll go over there to the peoplespundit, localsatpeoplespundit.com.

00:30:51.880 Everyone, make sure you go and get into that community.

00:30:55.520 peoplespundit, the locals.com.

00:30:56.580 Terry Schilling joins us next because we have a massive, massive expose from Pornhub.

00:31:05.420 Buzzing in my ear about the boring people at your office.

00:31:08.700 I'm trying to listen to the new human events with Jack Posobiec.

00:31:14.040 All right, Jack Posobiec back here live.

00:31:16.080 Human events, Washington, D.C.

00:31:17.900 And, folks, let me tell you something about a new sponsor here at Human Events.

00:31:21.940 Any day now, Big Pharma, Biden, they're going to pull the trigger on another drug that doesn't deliver.

00:31:28.500 They're going after Sudafed now.

00:31:30.420 Well, meanwhile, there are a ton of health supplements out there that underperform.

00:31:34.220 And that is why I am excited to tell you about Strong Cell.

00:31:38.220 Strong Cell is a daily liquid supplement that combines the power of NADH, CoQ10, and collagen.

00:31:46.140 Now, why is this important?

00:31:48.380 Studies show that NADH has been known to improve mental clarity, alertness, concentration, and memory.

00:31:54.880 And because of its role in energy production, NADH is also used for improving energy production and treating chronic fatigue.

00:32:02.360 That's not all.

00:32:03.900 NADH has been used to slow our overall aging processes, reduce cravings, and also boost your immune system.

00:32:11.960 It works.

00:32:12.900 Just ask Joe Rogan.

00:32:14.860 I use Strong Cell.

00:32:16.000 Tanya Tay loves the Strong Cell.

00:32:18.040 By the way, I always have to stop Tanya Tay from taking all the Strong Cell so I can get a little bit in there. 1.00

00:32:22.740 Guys, send us another box.

00:32:23.960 Come on.

00:32:24.320 Look, being that Strong Cell works in your body at the cellular level, we recommend you try the one-month option so you have time.

00:32:32.020 You can actually feel the difference.

00:32:33.720 We've set up a new website, strongcell.com slash POSO, 20% off today with promo code POSO.

00:32:51.580 The promo code, of course, is POSO.

00:32:54.320 Now, folks, we've been talking about pornography addiction.

00:32:59.300 We've been talking about Pornhub and many of these exploitative sites for a long time here on the show.

00:33:05.860 There's a video that just dropped from Sound Investigations last night all about Pornhub and expose.

00:33:14.120 I want to play a clip for you right now.

00:33:16.620 Meet Mike Farley.

00:33:17.880 Farley is a product manager at Pornhub who has been working at Pornhub for more than 10 years.

00:33:24.180 How are you going to tell me, like, who's in that video of the girl's not showing her face?

00:33:28.080 Like, that wouldn't hold in court. 1.00

00:33:29.340 That would be the loophole that I always, like, I look at that and I'm like, that's stupid. 0.99

00:33:33.140 But everybody is just kind of rolling with it. 0.99

00:33:37.420 Why do they just roll with it?

00:33:38.800 Why do they say something?

00:33:40.740 It would cost money.

00:33:41.800 Who exploits the loophole?

00:33:43.460 A lot. 0.99

00:33:43.920 F***ing everybody. 0.99

00:33:46.220 Everyone. 1.00

00:33:47.580 You make a lot of money.

00:33:48.800 Do rapists use it or?

00:33:50.920 Of course.

00:33:51.620 Of course.

00:33:52.400 We've brought it up to the CPO.

00:33:53.960 We've brought it up to the CLO.

00:33:55.140 And they're both telling us it's all good. 0.99

00:33:56.780 And the CPO is especially telling us, like, f*** off. 0.99

00:33:59.720 It's all good. 0.99

00:34:00.320 Like, stop.

00:34:00.840 So they know the risk. 1.00

00:34:01.860 Like, shut up. 0.99

00:34:02.840 They're like, it's all good. 0.99

00:34:03.580 I'm not going to get gossip.

00:34:04.600 It's fine.

00:34:04.860 But what if, like, the government was to find out about this loophole, what would they do?

00:34:11.860 I'd say fire.

00:34:13.060 I don't know. 0.98

00:34:13.840 They're not going to be f***ing. 0.85

00:34:15.380 They'll do nothing. 1.00

00:34:16.740 They're dumb. 1.00

00:34:17.540 They don't know f***ing. 1.00

00:34:18.860 They don't want to be a part of the debate. 0.99

00:34:20.680 They're not qualified to identify.

00:34:22.560 All right.

00:34:25.460 So in order to respond and explain to us what we're seeing here, I want to bring on Terry Schilling,

00:34:29.980 the president of the American Principles Project.

00:34:32.300 Terry, last time we had you on, people were calling you a 90s church mom, saying that

00:34:37.060 we should have to verify age, verify information before we go to Pornhub.

00:34:41.240 Now we find out that on Pornhub's back end, they're knowingly exploiting videos of rape,

00:34:48.300 videos of girls who are underage, videos of people that aren't even who they purport to

00:34:53.340 be.

00:34:54.260 What exactly is going on here?

00:34:56.120 So thanks again for having me, Jack, and for bringing light to this important issue.

00:35:02.660 It's such a sensitive topic that so many people avoid, but I know that we can always trust

00:35:07.300 on you to get the word out.

00:35:09.560 What's happening is the same thing that Pornhub got in trouble with the New York Times a few

00:35:14.760 years ago, which is videos of rape, videos of sex trafficking victims.

00:35:19.040 They're being posted on Pornhub, and they're making money off of it.

00:35:23.160 But there's a loophole that he's pointing out.

00:35:25.460 And the loophole is if you blur out the person's face that's participating in it unwillingly or

00:35:30.940 being raped, then you don't have to verify who that person is, right?

00:35:35.140 It's a total, total travesty. 0.99

00:35:38.080 It's disgusting that we're allowing this. 0.78

00:35:39.640 First and foremost, Jack, this is pornography, right?

00:35:42.820 This is not, this is offensive stuff.

00:35:45.740 This is obscene material.

00:35:47.180 And if it wasn't obscene, no one would care about their privacy when it comes to viewing

00:35:51.300 that.

00:35:52.100 But this is obscene material, and it should not be on tube sites available without any

00:35:57.540 paywall, without any wall at all to anyone, right?

00:36:01.240 There's, on top of this human trafficking stuff, right, recently, just a couple days ago in

00:36:07.180 Virginia, there's a Democrat state representative that's running for re-election or running for

00:36:12.560 election who was caught with her husband on a site called Chatterbait. 0.84

00:36:17.600 Now, I'll let you figure out what Chatterbait is short for, but it's a site where you post 0.85

00:36:23.120 streaming videos of you having sex and doing sexual things for tips.

00:36:26.700 There's no age verification.

00:36:28.160 There's no gate to keep bad people out or to keep little kids out.

00:36:32.880 This is a crazy world.

00:36:34.760 First and foremost, we need age verification across the country.

00:36:38.660 If you're a kid, you shouldn't be able to access this stuff.

00:36:41.600 And I don't care what rights porn users want or have.

00:36:45.460 They don't deserve to have to endanger our kids and put them in this way.

00:36:49.580 But we also need to get rid of these tube sites, right?

00:36:52.020 These are, first of all, a lot of pirated material, right?

00:36:55.800 They steal it, and then they make money off of advertising from it.

00:36:59.540 We need to clean it up, man.

00:37:00.900 There should be no YouTube but for porn, right?

00:37:05.120 This is a totally irresponsible system that we have.

00:37:07.440 We need to clean it up.

00:37:09.100 But so walk me through some of this other stuff, though, because there's supposed to be a level

00:37:14.040 of regulation here.

00:37:15.800 Rape videos, sex trafficking videos, underage girls. 0.98

00:37:21.080 What is actually the system that's in place? 0.66

00:37:23.980 Because this guy's laughing about it. 0.95

00:37:25.520 He says, we know that we make money off of rape videos and kiddie porn. 0.78

00:37:29.780 And he actually laughs and says the government can't stop us.

00:37:32.800 So the internet has created the wild, wild west.

00:37:38.820 And it's not just in porn.

00:37:40.080 It's in a lot of other areas as well.

00:37:41.760 But the brick-and-mortar stores, if you're a clerk at an adult bookstore and you give someone

00:37:48.980 under 18 porn and didn't check their ID, you get in serious trouble.

00:37:53.220 You even go to jail and get $5,000 fines or more, right?

00:37:56.480 But when it's the internet and a little kid types in your URL or finds it on a search engine

00:38:02.520 or a social media site, you don't have any consequences at all.

00:38:06.700 It's totally lawless on the internet.

00:38:08.900 And we need some type of internet regulation to rein this in.

00:38:12.660 And Jack, I would be remiss if I didn't remind your viewers that Congress actually was way

00:38:17.760 ahead of the game for once.

00:38:19.160 In 1997, they saw where internet porn was going and how out of control it was.

00:38:23.600 And this is when it's just pictures on 56K modems that you have to dial into, right?

00:38:28.100 But they saw it was getting out of control, so they passed the Communications Decency Act.

00:38:32.140 Well, the Supreme Court, in their wisdom, struck it down.

00:38:35.700 And they said, well, yeah, we can regulate porn off of broadcast mediums like television

00:38:39.680 or radio, but we can't do it on the internet.

00:38:42.140 It's just not as pervasive in our lives.

00:38:44.880 Fast forward to today, I don't know the last time I watched broadcast television.

00:38:47.580 I don't know the last time I listened, actually, to the radio, right?

00:38:49.620 These guys totally created the porn industry through government fiat, through the Supreme

00:38:55.700 Court striking down that rule.

00:38:57.300 And we need to go back and clean it up because it's been, what, 20, 27 years now?

00:39:01.760 Well, and there is a situation here that I could see as well, where we know that President

00:39:09.340 Trump actually passed the law, I'm looking at the name of it, FOSTA-SESTA, allowing states

00:39:15.100 and victims to fight online sex trafficking, stop enabling Sex Traffickers Act to go after

00:39:19.620 websites like Backpage.

00:39:21.480 What I'm wondering is, and I was a huge supporter of that law, places like Reason.com, corporate

00:39:25.680 shills were totally against it.

00:39:27.400 What I'm wondering is, if based on what we now know from Pornhub's executive statements,

00:39:33.040 could the Department of Justice, and let's assume that we had a real Department of Justice

00:39:36.900 here for a second, could they actually use those laws to go after Pornhub now?

00:39:42.160 Oh, absolutely.

00:39:43.580 Absolutely.

00:39:44.340 So part of what's held this up is we haven't been able to get an attorney general that's

00:39:49.220 actually willing to enforce the law.

00:39:51.080 But Jack, it's not just that narrow, right?

00:39:54.460 There are laws on obscenity.

00:39:57.840 You're not allowed, for example, to mail obscene materials through the U.S. Postal Service.

00:40:03.300 It's illegal.

00:40:04.200 So the porn companies got around that by putting their magazines into paper bags.

00:40:09.520 So the only way you'd be able to find it out that there was obscene material was to violate

00:40:13.240 someone's rights, right, and go through their mail, which is illegal.

00:40:16.600 So they found that loophole.

00:40:17.720 This is just another loophole.

00:40:19.000 But the attorney general, the United States, there's obscenity laws on the books.

00:40:22.420 They could crack down not just on the human trafficking and the rape stuff.

00:40:27.040 They could crack down on all porn and force them, every porn website that's displayed in

00:40:30.980 this country, they could force them to do age verification overnight just like that.

00:40:36.300 And they're simply not doing it.

00:40:37.580 Terry, where can people go to follow you to get more information about this absolutely

00:40:41.460 disgusting situation?

00:40:42.780 Go to protectkids.us.

00:40:47.800 That's a landing page right now where we're collecting names and signatures.

00:40:51.760 There's a great video showing how we're fighting the Biden administration.

00:40:54.740 But that's eventually going to turn into a resource for parents that want to protect

00:40:58.080 their kids from porn online.

00:40:59.480 So protectkids.us.

00:41:02.160 Sign up and get engaged and we'll put you to work.

00:41:04.780 Could not support more.

00:41:06.540 The American Principles Project.

00:41:08.600 You guys need to go and check them out.

00:41:11.300 Thank you again, Terry, for, by the way, not giving out the email address or the URL for

00:41:17.000 Susanna Gibson.

00:41:18.160 And when I said when I was that I was talking about this disgusting situation, I was not

00:41:22.040 referring to Democrats, suburban moms running for state Senate in Northern Virginia, making 0.99

00:41:28.360 videos of what my two year old calls number one and number two.

00:41:30.980 When I'm working long hours, I'm always listening to human events with Jack Posobiec.

00:41:39.680 We really need to talk about Mitt Romney.

00:41:43.300 This plan that they have to go forward, the no labels party has been in the works for a

00:41:50.360 while.

00:41:51.720 Let me tell you something right now.

00:41:53.440 If the DeSantis campaign had been doing better in the polls, if it had looked like he actually

00:42:01.100 had the ability to win in the primary.

00:42:03.900 Then you wouldn't be hearing about this, but the filing deadlines are coming up.

00:42:10.560 That's what's going on, folks.

00:42:12.100 So you watch.

00:42:14.060 Next, Joe Manchin, West Virginia, all eyes on him.

00:42:19.300 In fact, I'm going to travel out to West Virginia.

00:42:22.280 I'm going to be meeting with the local party there.

00:42:24.420 I'm going to be talking to people that are potentially running or running different campaigns

00:42:31.380 that are out there.

00:42:33.120 I'll tell you something.

00:42:34.180 This is all about preventing Trump from getting back to the Oval Office.

00:42:38.500 But as Rich Barris just walked us through, because of the shifts in the demographics, the

00:42:44.100 shifts in the vote, the shifts in the potential for Trump, Trump could actually exploit Mitt

00:42:53.820 Romney's race running essentially as an independent for what to expand the map against Biden, go

00:43:04.840 into blue states, go into places that they never thought he would come.

00:43:10.660 Because you see, folks, there's no easy way out of this.

00:43:14.040 The establishment wants to take over this country and take over it forever.

00:43:18.700 It's never going to happen.

00:43:20.120 There's no easy way.

00:43:21.180 The only way out is through and establishing the new American Republic, and you are never 0.98

00:43:28.200 going to stop that.

00:43:29.760 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
