one thing that makes our country an important place the fact that hungary in a fact is an
00:00:47.160
incubator where the conservative politics of the future are being experimented hungary is the place

00:01:18.440
domini and we are joined by the lovely and talented for the very first time on the daily show
00:01:24.080
mrs tanya tay posovic i feel so honored and humbled to finally make it on the list of mr posovic where
00:01:33.000
he finally gave me the pleasure of joining him here in the studio well the road as it is this like the
00:01:42.720
backpack studio kind of deal when we're when we're overseas but but no it's it's it it dawned on me that
00:01:49.680
we hadn't actually had you on on the daily show we've had you on on the sunday specials a couple
00:01:54.860
times but i realized you hadn't been on the daily show before and i said you know what because we're
00:02:00.940
in hungary right now and this is our third time here our first time here was on our honeymoon on our
00:02:07.200
honeymoon so we started in israel but then bounced around europe a bit and we ended up in budapest
00:02:11.700
and we we have come back here for cpac but one of the things that always keeps bringing us back
00:02:20.680
is because of how amazing hungary is and in particular the city of budapest so we actually
00:02:26.560
got to drive last uh last year when we were here we drove all over the country uh and this time we
00:02:32.220
said all right there's enough driving we're gonna stay right here in budapest but when you're here in
00:02:37.240
the city and when you're in this country what's amazing about it is you feel so incredibly safe
00:02:49.760
and this thing with the subway brawl new york city that went on while we were here it's like the type
00:02:58.460
of street violence that goes on in the united states it just it doesn't exist here it's and i'll ask you
00:03:05.360
because we have the boys here with my mom right now but do you feel that kind of danger when you're
00:03:12.120
going around the town right now do you feel like like that's something that could happen the same way
00:03:16.720
now when we go to philadelphia new york dc we're always kind of looking over our shoulder
00:03:22.320
have you felt that way at all even at night here so we have two of our little boys here and uh one of
00:03:29.880
the things uh that we have them do they they run out uh to the playground that uh is almost it's a
00:03:37.880
walking distance from the place where we're staying just totally they know how totally they uh we taught
00:03:44.880
them all the road directions you look left and right your basics left right left again and then
00:03:51.420
they they're not the fact that makes me so comfortable is i guess that they're not the only
00:03:58.240
kids that you see when you're usually visiting the major city it's mostly all the businessmen and
00:04:03.920
you know professionals here the streets are packed with mothers with little kids with uh couples pushing
00:04:11.040
the strollers it it feels amazing to be in that and i'm and i'm actually going to bring this up i'm
00:04:17.020
going to bring this up and and we've got a couple minutes left in the segment but
00:04:19.880
we flew out of jfk on our way to europe and we stopped by coney island beforehand
00:04:29.080
that trip to coney island was interesting it was cool that we got to go to coney island but
00:04:34.640
it was a little bit weird too wasn't it it was so it was my first time uh visiting the coney island and
00:04:41.300
i've heard so much about it i was like wow finally i get to meet the same coney island
00:04:45.880
nathan see what what all the chat is all about and uh we get there and i kind of look at jack and
00:04:53.380
like are we there are you sure because it didn't well the first thing we saw was first thing we see
00:05:02.020
two guys two guys getting arrested right on the street right in front of uh was it cyclones the
00:05:09.080
cyclone stadium right there there's two guys and they're mouthing off at the cops they're screaming
00:05:13.740
at them and the cops and then turn them around like a couple homeless guys and i just i remember
00:05:20.220
grabbing both of my kids like holding their hands very tight it's like just stay close to mommy you
00:05:25.860
guys don't run off and this by the way this was the middle of the day this was like uh noon it was
00:05:31.540
like the afternoon because we got there like super early and we drove up from dc and then we were
00:05:38.120
when we went to nathan's we even afterwards we're sitting outside we're eating some hot dogs
00:05:43.440
and there was this like homeless guy just sitting a couple tables away like eyeing up the kids um
00:05:52.640
you know rolling uh rolling drugs just sitting right down the table and the kids were running
00:05:58.500
around chasing the pigeons but whenever they got close to this guy you know you remember what i'm
00:06:02.400
talking about right whenever they got close to this guy he kept he kept like leaning towards them
00:06:07.540
and giving those really weird stares so i you know went over there and and had to get them away
00:06:12.740
from him because it's you never know what's going to happen one of those situations now this was
00:06:17.100
before anything with i'll remind you about something else when we walked on the broad walk
00:06:23.440
we got to the beach finally and one of the first things our son said he looked at um jack and said
00:06:30.800
daddy why is there so much trash why isn't it in a trash can and he just kept talking about it and
00:06:38.840
we looked at each other it's like there wasn't much to say to the little kid he's like you're right jack
00:06:44.540
jack you need to put all the trash in the trash can what it was you could actually tell it was trash
00:06:50.220
from but it was it was trash that was actually set up in um different sections almost as if it was
00:06:56.820
from people who had been staying on the beach but essentially it was it was homeless people that
00:07:01.080
were living on the beach and that was that was their like like that guy's area that guy's spot
00:07:06.900
on the beach and so you could tell that there were just different you know when someone's been living
00:07:11.240
somewhere you can see it right in front of the boardwalk people just living on the beach and
00:07:16.460
apparently in new york that's something that you're allowed to do now here in budapest i i haven't seen a
00:07:22.880
single homeless person i haven't seen um any any of that type of crimes let's say there isn't time
00:07:28.600
there aren't accidents it's clean and we've just been having an amazing trip and i know we're going
00:07:35.440
to break here in a second but the the main thing that i want to say to people is especially in the
00:07:40.000
united states is it doesn't have to be that way it doesn't have to be that way stay tuned we'll be
00:07:44.960
right back here human events daily with loving and talented tiny tape budapest hungry jack and tiny
00:07:50.220
tay here we got to tell you about the special deal that is now up with my patriot supply that when
00:07:56.560
you buy your three-month emergency food kit which lasts up to 25 years in storage with each kit you
00:08:04.500
order that you will now get another bonus package of crucial gear worth over two hundred dollars for
00:08:12.500
free and what when i talk about my patriot supply now look sweetheart when i do this i usually talk
00:08:19.520
about the financial collapse i talk about world war three i talk about natural disasters but
00:08:24.480
one of the other things that i know that you and i have talked about before is just having the peace
00:08:30.340
of mind to get one of these kits and instead of just thinking about uh the the that total collapse
00:08:38.080
disaster that could come why not just throw one in the trunk of your car because i mean think about
00:08:43.080
it as a mom is that something you feel better knowing that you have with two little kids uh breakfast
00:08:50.340
lunch this dinner is always on the back of my mind no matter where whether we are in europe no matter
00:08:55.580
where we're traveling across america and the peace of mind of having just little extra something
00:09:03.680
available if i need to have it is always such a great solution and it gives me that peace of mind
00:09:11.880
where i will know that my family will be fed and and think of it too you know let's say something
00:09:17.480
happens with the car i'm off somewhere you call the truck and how long does it wait for the truck to
00:09:23.600
come oh boy and now imagine the kids are in the car and they're getting hungry the car is not working
00:09:31.340
you know it'd be nice to have in the trunk my patriot supply so go to my patriotsupply.com right now
00:09:38.600
hungary elected a new president and she's a pro-life pro-family christian president-elect katlan novak
00:09:47.120
previously served as hungary's minister of families novak helped implement pro-family policies that
00:09:53.100
encourage hungarians to have more babies working hungarian women who have four children no longer
00:09:58.820
pay income taxes they get three years off from work to care for their babies couples can get a 30
00:10:04.580
thousand dollar interest-free loan to help buy a house and repayment goes down with each child and
00:10:10.860
after three kids the debt is forgiven the result marriages are now up 83 percent divorce is at a 60
00:10:18.060
year low and the abortion rate is dropped president-elect novak explains the most important outcomes of our
00:10:25.920
10 year family friendly or family oriented policies that the abortions dropped by 41 percent and i think
00:10:35.060
that we still have work to be done in this matter because we have to point out the value of life
00:10:43.500
and we're back so the last segment we were talking about the safety here in budapest but last night we
00:10:51.020
actually had the honor and privilege of being able to attend a talk at a private dinner with the
00:10:57.400
president of hungary uh mrs katalan novak and now i actually have been able to interview her about five
00:11:04.420
years ago when i was still at oan and back then she was still the minister of families and she was putting
00:11:13.220
forward a new plan all about her ideas to increase the birth rate in hungary now back then hungary's
00:11:24.700
birth rate the same as in so many other western countries was already facing a decline and they
00:11:30.360
were in a birth they were actually in a birth deficit because they were below replacement level
00:11:35.220
for their population that means more deaths than births were occurring every year that means your
00:11:39.620
population actually gets smaller uh this is true of the united states this is true for japan uh this
00:11:44.800
is true for most of western europe they are below replacement level cal and novak had an idea to do
00:11:51.480
things a little bit differently because the united states what they do is they try to open they it's open
00:11:55.220
borders so you just replace people with immigrants you replace workers you replace everything
00:11:59.020
immigrants immigrants immigrants immigrants immigrants uh whereas here in hungary they've decided
00:12:04.380
to do it a little bit differently and i believe someone even took notes what an inspiration this woman was to me
00:12:12.420
and not only because she is the first female president of hungary not only because she is a conservative
00:12:21.200
not only because she is a wife of 21 years it was actually her wedding anniversary yesterday she announced it
00:12:29.740
publicly but also because with all that she's also a mother of three kids and one of the greatest things she
00:12:38.460
mentioned was that she took a six-year maternity leave for each one of her kids so it was two years per kid
00:12:46.860
and with all that it showed that being a mother in no way uh made her sacrifice a career because obviously she's
00:12:57.100
achieved one of the greatest uh career um ambitions uh if you'd like to say that and um so she took six years off of work
00:13:07.820
when her kids were little and then went back into work in politics and rose through all the way up to become the
00:13:14.860
first female president of hungary and then she actually said at the dinner it was so great she said to all those people who say
00:13:23.820
you can't do it you can't have both what are you going to say to me because i did my time as a
00:13:30.380
stay-at-home mom and now i'm the president and the bigger boom boom let me say boom but the main thing
00:13:36.700
is she said if i had to choose i would do it all over again and i would never give up those six years
00:13:44.300
and do something else instead well tell us a little bit about her plan because you do have the notes on that
00:13:48.940
as well what is this family plan the great policies that she put forward are truly a great example for
00:13:55.740
countries like america and um one of them was actually a student forgiveness loan that we talk
00:14:02.540
so much about in us only in us everybody is just asking to get the loans forgiven period in hungary they
00:14:11.100
have a little different policy so if you're a mother so they're encouraging all the females to get the
00:14:16.700
education if you're a mother of two kids you get your loan reduced by half if you're a mother of
00:14:24.620
three kids they completely forgive your forgive your student loan so not only do they encourage women
00:14:32.140
to go into education they encourage women to have kids afterwards because an educated woman is a
00:14:39.100
mother who will then teach her kids to be smart future citizens of the country and then
00:14:46.060
what happens if you get four kids and if you go step further and have four kids you will have
00:14:55.900
no income tax for life no income tax for life if you have four kids and you have to stay married
00:15:03.420
right you have to stay married a little caveat but with those policies a little caveat a little caveat
00:15:11.980
a little caveat show that ring show that ring a little caveat a little caveat okay all right with
00:15:19.660
commitment it's just just you know it's just a little um but think about think about what that does for
00:15:27.580
family formation no income tax incentive for four kids um student loans student loan forgiveness by the
00:15:34.860
the way there's also stipends for larger houses there are stipends for uh for automobiles being able to
00:15:42.300
to get in a larger automobile because they they realize that's something that you need for kids
00:15:46.860
and what's the first thing i know we have time for a break but we're almost up time for a break
00:15:51.980
what was the main thing that you saw them building all around budapest we saw kids playgrounds
00:15:59.980
at least three minute walk from each other there's one huge playground that we are staying at the
00:16:08.860
one up the street is under construction you turn the corner there's another one and you see those
00:16:15.020
playgrounds packed so many kids running around chasing each other you love to see it and in addition
00:16:22.220
so divorce rate has completely tanked uh marriage rates are up obviously the fertility rate is is
00:16:29.020
having the highest increase of any country in europe but check this out without any legislation passed
00:16:36.300
because they've made it an incentive to have children the abortion rate has also collapsed
00:16:45.580
because they're incentivizing people to have children so even without having to go and pass legislation
00:16:52.940
they've actually found a way to reduce the abortion rate itself it's amazing we have to come up for a
00:16:59.820
break we'll be right back here human events daily with time to take us over
00:17:05.180
so while we're here we got to remind you guys to sign up for public square this is the best directory of
00:17:10.940
businesses that support our values and not woke values people are getting fired people are getting
00:17:16.540
canceled by woke corporations public square will never do that and by the way if you are one of those
00:17:21.660
businesses or you have one of them you're listening to the podcast right now check it out because i gotta
00:17:26.860
say you know it's it's great to know which businesses are there but let me ask you dear as as a mom is it
00:17:34.460
nice to have a guide where you can just go and see a directory of all the businesses even in our area
00:17:41.100
to get what you need but know that your money isn't going to support the world left absolutely
00:17:46.460
when you're a mom you have so many things on your mind but with public square you have one-stop
00:17:52.940
shopping you check out all the brands that have the same christian values that you share and this is
00:18:00.620
the place and this is the business i would like to spend my money on stop giving your money to people
00:18:06.060
who hate you go to public square.com and download the app today
00:18:12.300
i believe the prime minister new definition of uh woke cancel culture as uh as a virus carries some
00:18:20.860
potential actually on which we can build i think he's right about that because we've we've seen this
00:18:27.500
in the united states where the virus and i would actually refer to it i do refer to it on my podcast
00:18:34.860
on human events daily and at humanevents.com where i'm the senior editor we refer to it as a virus of
00:18:40.780
the mind a virus of the mind where uh you and as the previous speaker mentioned it is a virus that
00:18:48.300
affects your view or your ability to understand and interact with reality and because you reject
00:18:55.980
reality so forcefully this virus then causes you to act out in ways to support institutions to support
00:19:04.140
laws to support false truths in order to try to reform reality into what your warped view of how
00:19:13.020
reality should be you know the safety the family policies things that we can certainly need back
00:19:22.220
in the united states and certainly learn from right here in hungary are amazing we just came from poland
00:19:29.020
got to get to visit my family and and poland has many of the same policies so much of the same public
00:19:33.660
safety but when i was speaking at cpac and and the theme of cpac is no woke zone or that wokeness is
00:19:41.900
essentially a virus of the mind and i believe that's i believe that's the best way to put it where you reject
00:19:46.860
reality itself and uh let me just ask you as a as a mom you know you weren't speaking at cpac but you've
00:19:55.180
seen this agenda in the us that spreads everywhere uh predominantly targeting children every time you
00:20:04.620
go into a library every time you go into a bookstore all the kids books it's it's all the the agenda
00:20:10.140
the alphabet agenda alphabet agenda all over the place trans agenda and you notice have you seen that
00:20:16.940
at all in hungary anywhere we have been in hungary for a couple days and have not seen a single sign
00:20:27.180
of anybody with a mind virus how many everybody's seeing any pride flags no pride flags zero no rainbow
00:20:35.500
flags uh no rainbow colored clothing none of that all the kids seem to be running around you know the
00:20:46.460
boys and the girls i have not heard any they and them pronounce seems very normal and and coming
00:20:55.980
from us it almost made me uh lean to jack and say he's like are you seeing this like because i'm not
00:21:05.020
i don't believe that um it's hard to believe at this point that i would actually see something normal
00:21:11.980
and question it now because it it's i'm in disbelief after seeing what's going on in america it's it's so
00:21:18.620
far that's that's that's i almost said to some of the organizers backstage i said you want me to come
00:21:23.580
to budapest and talk about um wokeness but you you guys already know how to defeat wokeness you just don't
00:21:30.700
allow it you don't allow it and anywhere and we we should learn from you about wokeness i should you
00:21:36.940
should be telling me what to do when i go back to the u.s to learn about wokeness because that's the
00:21:42.220
real issue is that what we have not what you guys have and and it's it's so crazy to me to see this
00:21:48.780
because you know they have a law here in hungary and it's similar to and then governor samus did the
00:21:53.820
same law down in florida where you cannot make that type of material for children and i i think that's
00:22:00.940
what you have to do but you know instead you have playgrounds you have beautiful ferris wheels
00:22:07.260
uh there's like a skateboard park um and we went where did we go for for lunch today we went to uh
00:22:15.340
the new york cafe the most beautiful cafe in the world
00:22:29.340
and it really is and they've got the violins playing they've got the the bells the strings
00:22:47.420
and it and it was incredible it was and i say did you think the ceiling of that play was like a
00:22:52.940
masterpiece it was a complete masterpiece gilded age all the type of things that they've torn down in the
00:22:58.140
united states uh it has the the beautiful aesthetics that we need to return to also in the united states
00:23:06.540
as we rebuild our country and like i say here all the time reform the new american republic we're going
00:23:14.700
to need these types of things because when you're in u.s you don't see that kind of stuff you don't see
00:23:20.380
those historic type of buildings like you do in budapest like you would in in krakow like you do
00:23:26.540
across europe you know we build these oh glass and steel skyscrapers it's going to be awesome it's
00:23:32.540
going to be wonderful and modern it is i guess but we we got rid of all those old beautiful buildings
00:23:39.820
and it's i think it's sad i think it sets the tone for your country i think it sets the tone for your
00:23:44.220
people when you have these great glorious cities and i think that and i said this on stage i said that
00:23:52.540
the people are mad because you know they see those those glorious cities that were built in in in europe
00:24:00.700
and other places and they say well how come you know how come you know we didn't have those and
00:24:05.820
that was your fault because of uh you know racism and colonialism and they come up with all these
00:24:10.140
different isms instead of just admitting that it's actually great and i don't know that's why i like
