00:00:30.000 We are in a fifth generational conflict.
00:00:39.080 For every lie they tell, we're going to get in their face and yell two truths.
00:00:47.840 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Kosobi.
00:00:50.960 Christ is king.
00:00:55.220 Hey, Lindsay.
00:00:56.000 Yeah, we are right near the border with Russia.
00:00:57.580 The Kremlin escalating its missile and drone attacks on Ukraine.
00:01:01.500 And this morning, a dramatic twist.
00:01:03.560 An upmarket district of Moscow under attack from a swarm of explosive drones.
00:01:09.240 Explosions not far from President Putin's country residence.
00:01:14.240 This morning, the Russian capital under attack from a swarm of lethal drones.
00:01:20.520 Explosions just three miles from President Putin's country residence.
00:01:24.800 In video circulating online.
00:01:26.760 Here, one of those explosive drones clearly visible.
00:01:29.820 Russian officials saying most were shot down, but buildings damaged.
00:01:33.560 Two people lightly injured.
00:01:35.220 A Ukrainian official suggesting it's now not just Ukraine that can get attacked by drones.
00:01:41.340 And overnight, the Ukrainian capital was hit by explosive Russian drones for the third night running.
00:01:48.480 One person killed when this apartment was hit.
00:01:51.220 We can hear intense artillery fire not far from here.
00:01:55.960 And these guys are waiting for the command to move.
00:01:58.700 Our team meeting this Ukrainian tank platoon, readying for a major offensive.
00:02:03.960 Most of the tanks in the Ukrainian military are made up of these T-72 Soviet-era models.
00:02:08.940 The Ukrainians now have an unknown number of British-made and German-made advanced tanks.
00:02:14.360 But those tanks are being hidden from view.
00:02:17.800 Ukrainian preparations for that counter-offensive now in full swing.
00:02:22.080 Guys, Putin's spokesman reacting to that Ukrainian drone attack on Moscow,
00:02:27.800 saying Ukraine was retaliating after Russia destroyed a key Ukrainian command center over the weekend.
00:02:34.520 All eyes now on how the Kremlin will respond.
00:02:37.500 First of all, Florida's crime rate is at a 50-year low.
00:02:40.760 That's just a fact.
00:02:42.000 And it hit a 50-year low during my administration.
00:02:45.080 But a lot of that is because local people, local government, local law enforcement have done a good job.
00:02:49.020 But it's hit a 50-year low while crime has been spiking in other places around the country.
00:02:54.060 So we're counter-trend for what's been happening in the United States.
00:02:57.320 One of the main reasons families have moved to Florida since I've been governor
00:03:00.560 is because of public safety, because they know we're a law and order state.
00:03:04.100 So that's delusional to say that somehow Florida, you know, has bad crime.
00:03:07.920 And you can see that in the migration patterns.
00:03:09.980 People are leaving high-crime areas, and they're coming here.
00:03:14.020 Everybody got shot.
00:03:15.280 Oh, my God.
00:03:15.640 So many people got shot.
00:03:17.320 Oh, my God.
00:03:18.100 Oh, my God.
00:03:23.780 Oh, no, man.
00:03:26.600 Oh, no.
00:03:30.560 Oh, no.
00:03:31.920 Oh, no.
00:03:38.800 Oh, no.
00:03:42.040 Oh, no.
00:03:45.520 Oh, no.
00:03:46.240 I'm right here.
00:03:48.960 I'm here.
00:03:52.660 Oh, no.
00:03:59.200 Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard to today's edition of Human Events with Jack Posovic.
00:04:04.700 I am your host here today is May 30th, 2023, Anno Domini.
00:04:11.020 So I want to congratulate the folks and thank the folks at Real America's Voice, at Twitter,
00:04:17.080 at Rumble for being able to work to get human events.
00:04:20.300 Now we're going to be live streaming everywhere, every single day of the week, possibly on the
00:04:25.840 weekends, too.
00:04:26.480 We'll be doing weekend specials, everything out there.
00:04:28.340 And I want to thank the team behind the scenes that's been working to get this off the ground,
00:04:33.220 even over the Memorial Day weekend.
00:04:36.660 We've got a lot going on out there.
00:04:39.280 We've got a lot to get to.
00:04:41.200 And we don't have a lot of time to do it.
00:04:42.820 So stick with us, because every day we're going to be giving you the waterfront, what's going on in the world,
00:04:47.400 what's going on in the fight here for the United States against the globe.
00:04:51.500 You're seeing it right now, drone swarm attacks coming down on Kiev, coming down on Moscow,
00:04:58.680 trading blows over the weekend.
00:05:01.240 And I've even been talking to him.
00:05:02.740 We're going to have Stephen K. Bannon on in the next segment here.
00:05:06.400 We're also got Richard Barris coming out later in the hour, because I want to talk to Steve
00:05:10.480 not only about this tactic, but also how does this play out for China, the South China Sea,
00:05:17.760 vis-a-vis the United States military, in particular the United States Navy.
00:05:22.880 Are our aircraft carrier battle groups ready to defend against drone swarms and kamikaze drone attacks?
00:05:30.240 I know people have been saying to me, oh, don't worry, you've got the EMP blasts.
00:05:34.780 We're going to have directed energy weapons.
00:05:36.520 We've got all this.
00:05:37.380 Show me.
00:05:38.740 Show me the money.
00:05:39.840 Because I see what's going on right now on the ground, and I question how this tactic will be used in the future.
00:05:45.720 Ladies and gentlemen, remember, it is logistics, not strategy.
00:05:51.580 Logistics, logistics, logistics that wins the fight.
00:05:56.200 Also now here in 2024, we've got the horse race up in full swing.
00:06:02.400 DeSantis, Trump, both battling it out.
00:06:05.520 They're on the ground.
00:06:06.680 DeSantis is going to be in Iowa tonight.
00:06:08.460 President Trump will be headed to Iowa on Thursday.
00:06:11.640 What is the shift, or is DeSantis seeing a bump in the numbers from the announcement last week on Twitter?
00:06:17.920 He's doing sort of a new kickoff this week in Iowa on the ground, a more traditional kickoff after, and shall we say, a little bit outside of the box kickoff that he performed last week on Twitter.
00:06:30.840 We're also going to be getting into the race on the second tier.
00:06:34.860 So DeSantis right now is trying to kick out of that second tier, break through from those VP ranks.
00:06:40.380 He's going for the main seat.
00:06:42.260 He wants to be president.
00:06:44.420 But President Trump is up in pretty much every single poll.
00:06:48.000 Actually, every single poll that I've seen, and that's why we're going to have Barris on to talk about that.
00:06:52.400 Then we're seeing also on the VP tier, Nikki Haley, Tim Scott battling it out in New Hampshire over the weekend, taking shots at each other.
00:07:01.860 RFK Jr. is out in the mix.
00:07:03.300 We're going to play into all of that.
00:07:05.100 So stay tuned here on Human Events Daily.
00:07:07.860 This is where we are going to give you this unfiltered, raw.
00:07:12.300 This is directly from us to you.
00:07:14.640 You know who we are.
00:07:15.740 You know what we're about.
00:07:16.720 The New York Times has already been going after us, if you see this weekend.
00:07:19.880 They listen.
00:07:20.440 They listen very, very closely.
00:07:22.560 Well, I have a message for the New York Times and all the people over there who haven't even begun to get started yet.
00:07:30.740 Wait until you see what we have in store for 2024 New York Times because we know that there's one thing that the regime wants.
00:07:40.600 That's total control and the only way they can achieve it.
00:07:44.780 The only way they can have total control is total control over the information battle space.
00:07:49.520 And that is where we are standing in their way every single day, whether it's on social media, whether it's on terrestrial media, traditional media, new media, independent media.
00:08:01.020 This is the rise of the independent fifth generation warfare and fifth generation warriors.
00:08:08.540 It's like every single person within the sound of my voice right now because we're not going away.
00:08:15.200 We're not shutting up.
00:08:16.140 And every time you punch us, every time you try to take us down and fail.
00:08:20.120 And believe me, folks, they've tried to take us down.
00:08:22.560 They've tried to take me down.
00:08:23.580 You know what?
00:08:24.400 Every single time I keep coming back stronger.
00:08:27.500 Stay tuned.
00:08:27.960 We'll be right back.
00:08:29.480 When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with bloods. 0.99
00:08:32.400 And them boys had a saying.
00:08:34.580 You can't be listening to all that slappy whack, trim at his alitzabam ship, nippy bam bam, like human events with Jack Posobiec.
00:08:42.000 I'd really like to thank President Biden for cutting us with the bumper music there.
00:08:47.200 We've got we've got a few very special bumpers, a couple of rejoiners that we've made.
00:08:52.900 Now, unfortunately, folks, we did have a switch.
00:08:56.040 You know, live TV, you know how it goes.
00:08:58.240 Stephen K. Bannon is currently working very closely on this debt ceiling, these negotiations.
00:09:03.380 So we're pushing him off to later in the hour.
00:09:05.640 But graciously, the people's pundit himself, Richard Barris, is now with us.
00:09:11.160 We're very excited to have him on.
00:09:13.020 Richard Barris, thank you so much for joining us here on the inaugural show of Human Events.
00:09:19.020 Very excited to have you on.
00:09:20.740 It's an honor, my friend.
00:09:22.300 Looking forward to it.
00:09:23.300 Thanks for having me.
00:09:25.440 All right.
00:09:25.720 So let's get right into it, because I know you've been pulling throughout the weekend.
00:09:28.560 I've been following you.
00:09:29.680 But I deliberately didn't pick up my phone to call you this weekend, because even though I was chomping at the bit, too, I'm like, I want to hear Richard's numbers.
00:09:38.200 I got to hear.
00:09:38.800 He's always got the hottest stuff.
00:09:40.060 But I said, no, I'm going to save it for the show.
00:09:42.640 I'm going to save it for when he's on, because the audience needs it.
00:09:45.580 I want to deliver that value to the audience.
00:09:47.480 So the main thing I want to hear, man, Ron DeSantis, he has the announcement last week.
00:09:52.420 This thing, we were told originally, it was kind of interesting.
00:09:56.060 We were told originally that it wasn't going to happen until June.
00:09:59.040 We were told that it wasn't going to happen.
00:10:00.920 But then suddenly it happens in sort of mid, late May, really before the summer recess begins.
00:10:06.380 A lot of people saying, does that mean that it was rushed?
00:10:09.620 Was it moved up?
00:10:10.900 There was talk about he was going to have a kickoff in his hometown.
00:10:13.640 That got scrapped.
00:10:14.680 He ends up doing the Twitter thing.
00:10:16.400 And obviously it runs into technical difficulties.
00:10:18.720 You know, did they run a test first?
00:10:19.900 What was going on here?
00:10:21.500 And so the question is, you know, was that rushed?
00:10:23.980 Whatever.
00:10:24.380 That being said, you're the man with numbers.
00:10:26.900 Let it lay it down for us.
00:10:28.660 Bump or slump?
00:10:30.400 What are we seeing in terms of DeSantis and the numbers following his announcement?
00:10:35.620 Yeah, short answer, slump.
00:10:37.660 It is.
00:10:38.600 And the longer version of that, Jack, is this.
00:10:42.340 You know, it's a little bit amateurish, if you're going to be honest.
00:10:45.580 You don't overpromise and underperform in politics.
00:10:48.800 And for two months, as DeSantis' numbers just continued to slide, we were being told, wait until the announcement.
00:10:55.780 He hasn't announced yet.
00:10:57.120 He's going to get this increased surge when he announces.
00:10:59.700 If you're going to paint a singular event as that defining in a campaign, then you better come through.
00:11:06.940 And to give us some indication so we didn't have to wait until the weekend, although the weekend confirms it.
00:11:11.780 But we asked about 600 voters when he announced.
00:11:15.580 Do me a favor.
00:11:16.480 Do us a favor.
00:11:17.080 Or watch the announcement on Twitter where, you know, when you can.
00:11:21.340 And let us know what you think.
00:11:23.240 And then answer the primary question.
00:11:25.840 And actually, what we saw is that he lost a point.
00:11:28.660 It was very confusing to certain voters, especially older voters.
00:11:32.020 They didn't get it.
00:11:33.320 They just didn't understand it, Jack.
00:11:34.880 You know, barring the technical difficulties, they didn't understand why he would do it this way.
00:11:41.000 Some of the younger voters who were giving him a look, you know, I'm starting to use this term as has been suggested.
00:11:47.080 You've suggested to me credentialed voters, right?
00:11:49.520 You've been credentialed by academia.
00:11:51.040 They're the ones who have been giving Ron DeSantis a look or did months ago and then switched back to Trump.
00:11:57.900 For them, it was where's Ukraine?
00:12:00.520 Where's immigration?
00:12:01.600 More detail than immigration.
00:12:03.400 Where's foreign policy?
00:12:04.620 It was a bit of a sycophant fest, right?
00:12:06.500 So you have all these supporters just, like, throwing questions like, why are you so awesome, you know, at the candidate?
00:12:13.040 And that's not how you win voters.
00:12:15.920 It's just not.
00:12:16.820 Jack, you know.
00:12:17.640 I mean, the idea of an announcement.
00:12:19.740 I mean, so here's my take on it.
00:12:21.240 And I tweeted this.
00:12:22.300 Yeah, go ahead.
00:12:22.460 I tweeted this during the actual episode or during, you know, the announcement.
00:12:26.200 I said, look, we know what Governor DeSantis' policies are when it comes to domestic policy.
00:12:31.820 We know we're standing on focus.
00:12:32.880 We know we're standing on DEI.
00:12:34.960 And some of these acronyms, by the way, to your point as well, maybe, you know, they might be familiar to those of us that follow us on a day-to-day basis.
00:12:44.140 But to the casual voter, for example, man, I met last weekend in Pennsylvania with my cousins, with my, you know, we went to a horse show.
00:12:53.900 You know, we went around.
00:12:55.020 You know, they're not thinking about DEI, CRT.
00:12:58.120 See, that's not the kind of stuff that they're talking about with, you know, over-the-table regular basis.
00:13:03.760 They talk about prices.
00:13:04.960 They know let's go, Brandon.
00:13:06.480 They know about Trump.
00:13:08.200 They know about all this.
00:13:08.760 They know who DeSantis is.
00:13:09.640 They generally like DeSantis.
00:13:11.080 But in terms of this super in-the-weeds policy discussion, I just don't know if that's the kind of stuff that connects with your casual voter.
00:13:20.060 And the fact that it was online, the fact that he's covering ground, that I believe that he's already known as a champion.
00:13:26.900 I mean, I get that.
00:13:27.340 You want to emphasize your strengths, but you also want to show who are you when it comes to the job that you're going for, the job that you're applying for.
00:13:36.400 We already know who you are about the job you have.
00:13:39.660 Yeah, I think you have to in an announcement, especially if you're a governor, like you said, that's a domestic position.
00:13:46.000 You have to, you know, and speaking of academia, what they would call it, you know, when I was coming up is where's the presidential justification, right?
00:13:53.640 Why are you the man or the woman for this moment?
00:13:57.200 And it can be only you and nobody else.
00:14:00.560 And if you're a governor, especially, you have to have some kind of foreign policy chops.
00:14:05.060 You have to show that you're going to be competent in that area.
00:14:07.800 Now, for an announcement, you're not going to accomplish all of that.
00:14:10.760 But you have to start to peel away those those layers.
00:14:14.580 And then eventually you get on the campaign trail and you deliver it.
00:14:18.540 Look, the fact is, I hate to say this, but I don't say this very often.
00:14:23.300 I think I agree with The New York Times now that the polling and we'll have new ones released this week.
00:14:27.700 Now that it's in and I can see it, Jack, this man got his bump months ago and then he mishandled Ukraine with Tucker.
00:14:36.560 He mishandled how to respond to President Trump's indictment by the Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
00:14:43.600 He he just stumbled along the way at a period when he was already getting scrutiny like a presidential candidate always gets when they finally announce.
00:14:53.120 And then also for the last 48 hours, 72 hours, it's been brutal for that.
00:14:58.940 It has, you know, they they made covid.
00:15:01.640 They chose to make covid a centerpiece of his his campaign.
00:15:06.640 And, you know, that's not really I know they view it as a strong a strong issue for him.
00:15:13.460 But the fact is, there are a lot of people who don't agree that DeSantis was as quick as he should have been.
00:15:19.780 So, again, he's got a small chunk right now.
00:15:22.640 It's about 15 percent who says, you know what, I'm I'm mostly MAGA, but maybe I'm I'm looking to move on from Trump.
00:15:31.740 That's the vote he has been losing.
00:15:33.260 That that vote has now really solidly gone back to the former president.
00:15:37.380 And then what he's left with is a small share of the moderate vote.
00:15:42.680 And in fact, not even a liberal vote.
00:15:45.500 So wait until we dig into some of these numbers.
00:15:47.880 But the former president's dominant with conservatives now.
00:15:51.080 Now, he's dominant with self-identified Republicans.
00:15:53.700 There are some open primaries.
00:15:55.460 But, Jack, the lean's not big enough.
00:15:58.180 This is something I think I really need to say.
00:16:00.500 First break.
00:16:01.320 OK, for a second.
00:16:02.040 But I do want to hold you over because I do want to get into some of these numbers.
00:16:05.380 And I think you're right.
00:16:06.100 I do think there was a vote.
00:16:07.400 There was a bump after the midterms, immediately after the midterms.
00:16:11.200 And then people started focusing on, look, this is the social media era.
00:16:14.780 We are all under scrutiny all the time.
00:16:17.220 And you either strike when the iron is hot or you bide your time and you choose the time and place of battle.
00:16:23.400 Stay tuned.
00:16:23.780 We are going to come right back here.
00:16:25.160 Human Events Live.
00:16:25.940 And we're back.
00:16:30.820 Human Events Live.
00:16:31.660 Now, we do have the great Stephen K. Bannon joining us.
00:16:36.040 But before I go to Steve, I want to play a clip of one of Steve's best friends.
00:16:41.740 He's a former colleague working in President Trump's administration.
00:16:45.460 It is, of course, the one and only James Comey speaking out on MSNBC today.
00:16:50.540 Let's play that clip.
00:16:51.380 So if Donald Trump were reelected as someone who worked for and alongside the man,
00:16:56.860 what is your sense of the potential danger of his being in the White House, again, if you see it as a danger?
00:17:02.300 I think he poses a near existential threat to the rule of law.
00:17:06.220 He will do everything he can in a new term to try to tear down the institutions that he sees as threats
00:17:11.800 and dismantle them and the people who occupy them, the apolitical people who occupy them.
00:17:16.860 So there is a lot on the ballot in 2024 if he's a candidate.
00:17:20.020 But the rule of law, in my view, is at the very top of the list.
00:17:26.740 I'm going to pull the whole thing down. 0.99
00:17:29.340 I'm going to bring the whole diseased corrupt temple down on your head. 0.99
00:17:35.300 It's going to be biblical. 1.00
00:17:40.580 Wow.
00:17:41.900 Steve Bannon joining us here at Human Events.
00:17:44.720 Did you hear James Comey right there on that clip?
00:17:47.660 Hold it.
00:17:47.880 He's saying.
00:17:48.800 I heard an F-bomb on the clip.
00:17:52.600 Is it R-A-V during the day?
00:17:54.720 Not on watch like they are on my show?
00:17:56.800 I heard the F-bomb.
00:17:57.940 Yeah, we're going to have to have a word about that.
00:17:59.700 We're going to have a word about that.
00:18:00.600 Hold it.
00:18:01.180 Hold it.
00:18:01.740 Hang on.
00:18:02.260 Before I go forward, I want to congratulate you on the show.
00:18:06.940 We're getting into it all.
00:18:07.740 It's amazing.
00:18:09.340 Two o'clock.
00:18:10.340 But I've got to say something.
00:18:11.580 On your first show, during the big block from 10 to 3 o'clock now, with populist nationalism,
00:18:17.840 War Room, Charlie Kirk, Jack Posobiec, you know this is going to be a historical document.
00:18:22.740 How does Bannon get bumped as the first guest for Richard Barris?
00:18:25.800 I love Barris, right?
00:18:27.480 I love Barris.
00:18:28.720 But, hey, you know, even alphabetically, I'm in front of Barris.
00:18:32.840 Tell me how that works.
00:18:33.940 Well, yeah, you know, Steve, like, we've got to put over the new guys.
00:18:40.160 You know, this is all about putting over a new show, new guys.
00:18:43.060 You know, the old guard.
00:18:45.000 You know, the old guard is, you know, they're looking at the horizon already.
00:18:48.820 They're looking at that horizon.
00:18:51.880 But, look, I've got to get you.
00:18:52.820 What is your take?
00:18:54.160 Is Comey actually running scared in that clip right there?
00:18:57.700 What is that?
00:18:59.260 No, it tells you about the lawfare.
00:19:01.240 They know they can't.
00:19:02.180 You know, Richard's gone through the numbers, and he'll come back and go through some more numbers in a minute.
00:19:06.260 They're looking at the same numbers that Barris is looking at.
00:19:09.040 In fact, they're looking at Barris's polling.
00:19:11.260 They see the fact that Trump is on the rise.
00:19:13.780 Trump is going to be dominant here.
00:19:15.560 He's going to dominate in the primary.
00:19:17.780 He will win the general election.
00:19:20.940 And, by the way, if we get this spending bill right, he'd definitely win it.
00:19:24.620 They're trying to take that away from him.
00:19:26.300 But the debt ceiling bill.
00:19:27.860 But they're going to try to stop him with lawfare.
00:19:29.800 This is why you're going to see a Jack Smith indictment on him, on Mar-a-Lago, for conspiracy, not the actual initial thing they went after him for.
00:19:37.860 You're going to see another indictment coming out of Georgia.
00:19:42.320 So you're going to see two more indictments given also the one he's got in New York.
00:19:45.060 And he's saying an existential threat to the rule of law.
00:19:48.320 This is the most lawless guy to reign the most lawless institution.
00:19:53.200 Yes.
00:19:53.820 He's saying, though, he's explaining what is actually saying the quiet part out loud.
00:19:57.800 He is saying that Donald Trump, if he is reelected, he will be the battle axe, the wrecking ball to the entire administrative state.
00:20:06.240 And they know this.
00:20:06.960 Of course, Trump has said it.
00:20:09.240 Remember, Jack, you and I talk about the CCP all the time.
00:20:11.720 President Trump disagrees with us slightly.
00:20:14.020 He thinks it's a major problem, an enemy of the United States.
00:20:17.460 But he says the number one existential threat to the country is the administrative state.
00:20:22.360 Comey, Clapper, Brennan, all of them, they're coming for Trump in the biggest way possible.
00:20:27.660 That's why we've got to be firing off the football after Trump wins.
00:20:31.280 We need to we need a landing team of three to four thousand people to cash but tells the world in that deep bench and back up have to be ready to go right away.
00:20:38.280 I mean, right after the election, the transition team in November, December of twenty twenty four have to be ready to go to hit the deck plates running on January 20th because it's it's going to be Stalingrad every day.
00:20:48.920 And it's going to just told you he caused existential threat.
00:20:52.060 These guys will do anything to stop Trump and anything to make Trump's second term untenable.
00:20:58.600 Well, and we know that he did.
00:21:01.660 This is the guy who was the quarterback of Russiagate, the quarterback of Steve of the Steele dossier, the quarterback of the investigations, which, of course, his firing then tees up the Mueller investigation.
00:21:12.560 Because, Steve, you know, when we started the show playing this, I know you and I were chatting over the weekend about these drone swarm attacks.
00:21:18.420 We saw these kamikaze drones, drone swarms raining down waves of them on Kiev and Ukraine responds with drones. 0.92
00:21:27.260 And these are on wealthy suburbs of Moscow.
00:21:30.540 These are Putin's elites.
00:21:31.960 These are the oligarchs of Russia.
00:21:33.700 These are these are the high rollers, the heavy hitters up there.
00:21:36.080 They're getting hit.
00:21:37.000 And so I'm looking at this new tactic back and forth.
00:21:39.180 But I'm also saying this is a super weapon.
00:21:42.240 This thing is getting through everybody's defenses.
00:21:44.460 What happens and you got as a naval officer, you got to think ahead, what happens in a South China Sea scenario?
00:21:50.940 And I know you and I did the Memorial Day special all about the future of modern warfare.
00:21:55.500 These drone swarm attacks would be absolutely devastating in a South China Sea scenario.
00:22:01.520 We we don't need we don't have time for somebody who needs on the job training as the next president.
00:22:07.460 Just just, you know, the you talk about Section 60, as we talked about over the weekend, the honor dead of Iraq and Afghanistan. 0.85
00:22:14.940 They had to open sex.
00:22:16.220 People have to understand the drone swarm.
00:22:19.120 The CCP has you can see it playing out in the battlefields in Kiev and Moscow right now.
00:22:24.040 They put a drone swarm, which they will on a carrier battle group in the Straits of Taiwan.
00:22:28.660 You're going to sink a carrier battle group.
00:22:30.540 You're going to open up to section two new Section 60s just for the dead of that one battle.
00:22:35.740 We're going to have a battle bigger than Coral Sea where we're being hit by every direction.
00:22:40.520 And quite frankly, we can't even get a meeting.
00:22:42.660 The feckless Biden regime can't even get a meeting with the CCP.
00:22:45.700 People should understand this week.
00:22:47.400 I know the dead ceilings taking up all the airtime, but there's a major developments on the war against the Chinese Communist Party.
00:22:53.580 They were against that.
00:22:54.120 They will not even meet in a neutral territory with the heads of our military.
00:22:58.400 That tells you how much they're planning to head towards a kinetic war.
00:23:01.780 Look, you're going to see a situation in the future here.
00:23:08.040 And, yeah, they're talking about this.
00:23:09.480 Blinken says, oh, we'll be open in China.
00:23:11.180 Well, have you reached out to them?
00:23:12.540 Have you actually made any phone calls about peace?
00:23:14.520 Because I watched that entire G7, and they're all slapping Zelensky on the back.
00:23:18.360 Great job.
00:23:19.160 Well, there's how many tens of thousands of people lying dead in Bakhmut?
00:23:24.220 You guys lost there, and now you're driving forward to the next one as if nothing happened.
00:23:29.540 Stephen K.
00:23:29.960 We've got one minute. 0.97
00:23:30.920 Can you hang her, or do you have a bounce? 1.00
00:23:33.360 I've got to bounce. 0.77
00:23:35.060 I've got to get ready for the show.
00:23:36.060 But I've got to go take care of my hurt feelings because you started with Barris.
00:23:39.680 I've got to go lick my wounds here to get ready for the afternoon show in the war room, brother.
00:23:44.280 Look, he just wanted him more, man.
00:23:45.960 He just wanted him more.
00:23:46.560 Let me have, knowing that I'm the backup backup, I'm cool.
00:23:49.540 I'm cool with that.
00:23:50.760 I'm good.
00:23:51.300 I'm all good.
00:23:51.840 Look, look, we're sending you back to the ball.
00:23:53.740 Look, the war room's got a pretty deep bullpen now.
00:23:56.860 The bench, look, you've got Natalie Winters back in D.C. 0.89
00:24:00.720 She's running the show out, out of the seat. 0.99
00:24:03.300 You know, what can I say?
00:24:04.800 Stephen K. Patton, he's just like, you know, he's just becoming the ringmaster at this point.
00:24:10.740 An elder citizen, congratulations on the new show.
00:24:14.020 It's so great having you during the day following Charlie.
00:24:16.820 Five hours of populist nationalist intensity on Real America's Voice.
00:24:20.800 Jack, I'm so proud that you've got this afternoon show.
00:24:23.740 Be back on.
00:24:25.460 When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with Bloods. 1.00
00:24:28.280 And them boys had a saying.
00:24:30.340 You can't be listening to all that slappy whack, trim out his alitzabam ship, nippy-bam-bam, like Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:24:37.800 Okay, we are back.
00:24:42.340 I want to thank President Biden again for bringing us in.
00:24:45.420 Now we also, let's go back.
00:24:47.100 So, Richard Barris, you were hanging out there.
00:24:48.880 Rich, you know, what can I say, man?
00:24:51.520 Sometimes the young blood just has to rise up a little bit. 0.99
00:24:55.560 And you've got to push back against the old guard here and there.
00:25:00.820 What can I say?
00:25:02.120 It's his fault anyway for letting us have microphones in the first place.
00:25:06.160 The early bird catches the worm, baby.
00:25:08.660 What can I say?
00:25:09.620 All right.
00:25:10.580 I know.
00:25:11.360 Right.
00:25:11.600 So, when you and I had left off, when you and I had left off, you were talking about these numbers that we're looking at, the movement in the numbers, the shift, or maybe shift back, in a sense, of these voters.
00:25:26.160 Because, remember, we're not just talking about the key voters that have come out in a Republican primary.
00:25:32.800 We're also looking at the type of voters, and I saw you tweeting about this over the weekend, and this was the one that was most fascinating to me, and I just locked onto it like a laser beam in my mind, of the Trump-Obama voter.
00:25:48.120 The guy, particularly in the Rust Belt, because we know those are the key states.
00:25:53.220 This was the area that those Romney, Ted Cruz, George W. Bush, McCain types, they could never play in this area.
00:26:04.460 And while they could run up the percentage in a red state, they're running up the percentage in Texas, they're running up the scoreboard in so many of the red states that they're not getting the same shift that we saw in the Rust Belt.
00:26:17.420 And, of course, I'd say this as the son of the state of Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth there, that we always would come, like, it would always be a nail-biter until the very end of the election in, you know, in all of those elections that we saw.
00:26:30.520 And we could never get those crossover voters, and then suddenly Trump is able to pull it off.
00:26:35.300 What are you seeing with those voters in particular, and then just sort of the entire board?
00:26:41.780 And you just said it, there's a real lack of appreciation for what the former president was able to do in 16, and then even, if you consider, we're talking a couple of, you know, tens of thousands of votes over three different states that gave Joe Biden the presidency when, like you just said, George Bush, maybe he could get close, but he'd repeatedly fall shy.
00:27:03.720 John McCain just got crushed. Mitt Romney crushed.
00:27:07.000 So this is the voter that there's no evidence that anyone but Donald Trump on the Republican side can win.
00:27:14.940 And, you know, I think Steve said something in the last segment that's worth repeating, which is the Jim Comey's of the world and others, people are even smarter than him.
00:27:23.920 They're looking at these numbers, Jack, and what they're seeing is what I'm seeing, that this vote, there's two groups, the Trump-Obama or the Obama-Trump, whichever one you want to label it, and then the Trump-only.
00:27:35.480 And what they're seeing is that without Trump on the ballot, that Trump-only vote is likely to stay home like it did again with Mitt Romney and in 18 and in 22.
00:27:47.020 And then the Trump-Obama vote, which went back, you know, even some of them were Obama-Trump-Biden.
00:27:52.580 And that is now back to being an Obama-Trump-Trump voter.
00:27:58.800 So they're coming back.
00:28:00.400 So every time we ask people, Biden voters, who did you vote for, who would you vote for now, between 8% to 12% of Biden's vote says, I made a mistake, I'll vote for Donald Trump again.
00:28:11.800 And then if you ask that of Trump voters, less than 2%.
00:28:15.280 It's statistically insignificant.
00:28:17.960 Say that they would vote for someone other than Donald Trump.
00:28:20.820 So the net gain is, we're talking about millions, Jack, depending on turnout.
00:28:25.540 We're talking about millions of millions of votes in a net swing back to Donald Trump.
00:28:30.860 And I just want to point this one last thing out, which is if this, when we're talking about the dominant lead he has in the primary right now, yes, it's politics and yes, anything can happen.
00:28:41.780 But nobody has ever had a lead this large, even this early, and went on to not be nominated.
00:28:48.360 That's because there's something significant statistically about being that far above 50%.
00:28:55.220 You now have to not just win undecided.
00:28:58.100 You have to change people's minds who are claiming to be decided.
00:29:03.060 And the sampling error gets much, much more, you know, the window is narrow.
00:29:07.820 The lane is small.
00:29:08.920 Well, let me, here, here, and it was small to begin on that.
00:29:11.580 So you're saying there's a smaller lane, particularly for the governor, if he's able to pull those persuadables.
00:29:18.580 And it's interesting, by the way, that, of course, Iowa is the first state, but Iowa is in some ways very close to the Rust Belt.
00:29:26.460 I wouldn't necessarily consider it a Rust Belt state, but there are some voters that track that way.
00:29:31.500 Do you see this crossover of the Obama-Trump voter?
00:29:36.480 Now, those weren't necessarily, you wouldn't necessarily call them industrial workers, but what you see is in terms of farmers.
00:29:42.060 And you were actually tracking that specifically as it comes to their view of DeSantis.
00:29:46.920 What did you find?
00:29:47.560 The problem, and by the way, 31 counties in Iowa alone that were Obama-Trump counties.
00:29:54.680 So it's the state with the most pivot, what we call pivot counties in the country.
00:30:00.240 And again, months ago, if it was two, four months ago, some of these people were looking at Ron DeSantis like a younger version of Donald Trump.
00:30:07.900 However, I can't stress this enough.
00:30:10.760 They don't anymore.
00:30:12.340 So now it went from, Jack, this is how bad it's getting.
00:30:15.560 It went from two or three weeks ago from us talking to voters and them saying, you know what, we love you as a governor.
00:30:21.500 Just go back to Florida.
00:30:22.660 It went from that to now not being sure they love him at all anymore.
00:30:26.720 I mean, he's really on the verge of hurting himself going forward.
00:30:30.760 They just don't like what they saw.
00:30:32.420 And you can't make their—he took some hits to his normal arguments, too.
00:30:37.140 Trump had bad personnel decisions.
00:30:39.120 Well, OK, if you're going to argue that you're going to do better with personnel, then you better put together an announcement that isn't a complete and total disaster.
00:30:47.500 Very first person we talked to that night said, how are you going to run a country if you can't run a campaign?
00:30:53.540 And that was it.
00:30:54.480 They swapped back from DeSantis to Donald Trump.
00:30:56.900 And by the way, 12 hours later, endorsements were flipping, citing the same logic.
00:31:02.880 So it's just a hard—it's a steep hill to climb.
00:31:06.100 And I would say this, Jack.
00:31:07.140 If this was anybody but Donald Trump, the media would be declaring an end to this primary.
00:31:12.440 That's how dominant—they know it.
00:31:14.420 I know it.
00:31:15.380 Believe me, folks, they know it on Fox News.
00:31:18.100 They know it elsewhere.
00:31:19.400 They are just trying to damage Republicans' chances of actually winning come the general election.
00:31:25.080 But there's a reason why.
00:31:27.140 I'd like to say something about that because we've got about one minute left.
00:31:32.040 And this is the danger, and I've been talking about this since November.
00:31:35.680 This is the danger of igniting a civil war on the right is that what ends up happening is that you get both sides tearing each other apart and that eventually one of the camps stays home in November.
00:31:49.940 Rich, before we go back to you, I want to tell everybody a quick message from our friends over at Public Square.
00:31:56.140 Guys, are you tired of the book corporations and exhausted in trying to keep up with all the virtue signaling when you're simply trying to buy products?
00:32:04.800 I think Target and Bud Light are finding out about that right now.
00:32:07.420 And how about the L.A. Dodgers?
00:32:08.720 Progressive corporate America continues to push messaging that is alienating conservative and just normal Americans, and they're eroding the future of the American dream.
00:32:18.580 It is prominent all over the country.
00:32:20.620 Companies like Starbucks strong-arming their customers.
00:32:23.260 I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Possovi.
00:32:25.560 And we're back again.
00:32:28.640 Live TV, love the clock stuff, guys.
00:32:30.680 And remember, though, are you tired of progressive corporations like Target, like the L.A. Dodgers, like so many others trying to keep up with all the virtue signaling when you're just trying to buy products Bud Light?
00:32:45.380 Progressive corporate America continues to push messaging that further alienates conservative and just normal Americans while eroding the future of our American dream.
00:32:54.340 It's prominent all over the country.
00:32:56.960 Companies like Starbucks, they're strong-arming customers to support abortion.
00:33:01.920 Financial services like PayPal, yeah, they're going to cancel you for your political views.
00:33:05.840 And then makeup companies like Maybelline are making a mockery of women by supporting transgender models. 0.91
00:33:11.880 And, of course, we know about Bud Light and Target and the gender ideology, et cetera.

00:34:12.460 I want to get back now in with Richard Barris.
00:34:14.700 Richard, we were talking before the break, and we've got about six minutes left here, a full segment.
00:34:19.320 I want to hand it over to you.
00:34:20.140 Talk to me more about these counties and the way they're viewing Governor DeSantis, these Obama-Trump counties, because I find this fascinating.
00:34:28.820 I also find it interesting that the media, the political media, Politico's got a story up today saying that, oh, well, Wisconsin, it was all about abortion, and Republicans can't win now because it's about abortion.
00:34:39.760 So they'll at least talk about that in terms of how Wisconsin went in 22, but they never go into and talk to the people, I've never seen them actually cover the story, as to why all of these Obama counties flipped for Trump in 16.
00:34:55.540 You know, the abortion, they make a lot of that, Jack, and the truth is there is some danger with DeSantis' strategy that he makes himself unelectable in those Rust Belt states, in the Mid-Atlantic, and even in parts of the Northeast, by the way.
00:35:08.780 Why does Trump do so much better in Maine, too, as opposed to other Republicans?
00:35:13.840 It's another great example.
00:35:15.360 But if we're sticking in the Rust Belt, Wisconsin, perfect. 0.90
00:35:18.660 You have Sauk County, Dorr, even counties where Trump doesn't win, but he tightens the vote margin like no other Republican can do.
00:35:26.420 We call it lumberjack country, Ashland, Bayfield, and the northwest of Wisconsin.
00:35:31.700 And this is, you know, really comes down to, while abortion matters, this comes down to Trump being a different kind of Republican on immigration and trade.
00:35:42.520 And that's it.
00:35:43.700 A lot of Republicans talk the talk on immigration, but not many are going to come out and release a, not only release a statement, but voters believe Trump when he says,
00:35:52.760 Yes, I'm going to write an executive order that ends, you know, automatic citizenship for illegal children, to the children of illegals. 0.99
00:36:02.400 But trade, you know, not for nothing, but we haven't even begun to get into it yet.
00:36:06.980 When Trump goes all over the Rust Belt to Iowa and he talks to these farmers and he tells them Ron DeSantis was not a fair traitor, he was a free traitor.
00:36:16.200 And he did whatever Paul Ryan told him to do, TPP, etc.
00:36:20.060 That stuff may not hurt you as much in a Republican primary, although it certainly would now more than it did 10 years ago.
00:36:28.040 But it will kill you in a general election.
00:36:30.660 And look at counties, another one, a great one, where it's the home of the Reagan Democrats.
00:36:34.520 Macomb County in Obama County, which Trump carried not once, but twice, Republicans repeatedly lose it.
00:36:42.700 Nothing bad to say about Tudor Dixon.
00:36:45.060 Probably a big, you know, big part of why she lost was the RGA did not help Trump gubernatorial candidates. 1.00
00:36:52.340 She lost Macomb County, right?
00:36:53.980 So anyone with an R after their name continues to lose Macomb County, which you need to offset getting clobbered in Oakland next door.
00:37:01.500 So that's why, you know, again, I said it in the prior segment, it really does, it's worth repeating, it bears repeating.
00:37:09.760 What he did was an incredible feat, winning those states.
00:37:14.040 And a lot of Republicans are just pretending as if those states are always going to be competitive.
00:37:19.300 They're not going to be competitive.
00:37:21.780 Who it is, who the candidate is perceived to be.
00:37:24.280 And you're, yeah, go ahead.
00:37:26.800 That's so exactly right, because he's easy to turn into Mitt Romney.
00:37:30.860 He is.
00:37:32.080 It's you, you, we saw this in, and look, I've said this before, since we're doing the new show, I'll say it again, that I was not a McCain voter and I was not a Romney voter.
00:37:42.920 I wrote my father in it.
00:37:44.060 And I'm a conservative guy out of Pennsylvania, but I just didn't think those guys had what it took to actually go in and do anything.
00:37:52.680 And I got to imagine that there are millions of other people out there like that that are either going to stay home, they're going to be turned off, or they're not going to just come out.
00:38:02.860 And so in terms of the persuadables, sure, you can find persuadables, but that is a, that's a suburban strategy, and it's the exact same strategy these guys can.
00:38:10.980 Voters are busy. 0.95
00:38:12.880 Voters are not stupid. 0.84
00:38:15.020 If they take one look at you and they say, you know what, this guy can actually get something done, versus, you know what, this guy's some lawyer, I don't trust him, I think he's flip-flopping left and right, they're just going to tune out and they're going to go back to work, they're going to go back to something else, they're going to go back to what they're doing. 0.74
00:38:31.140 Versus, and I'm going to, by the way, on tomorrow's show, we're going to get into this more, the micro-targeting that's going on by the left on these issues of abortion, on these issues like trans, stuff that they know they can bank these ballots in because of the way that they've changed elections in our country.
00:38:49.300 Why do you think that they changed these states specifically for 2020?
00:38:54.600 This was their target all along, right?
00:38:57.460 It's very clear from that perspective.
00:38:59.960 Why was it that Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania had the most stringent lockdowns going all the way through 2020 under their Democrat governors like Bill Evers and Tom Wolf and Christian Whitmer, and why did they implement the most universal mail-in ballot?
00:39:17.280 It's like, you don't have to be Richard Barris to figure that one out, kids.
00:39:20.960 I mean, you'd think it's very obvious.
00:39:24.280 Yeah, you'd think that would be very obvious to people, but even, you know, 2020 was one thing.
00:39:31.220 Okay, so it caught you by surprise, but then 2022, it happened again.
00:39:36.200 So I really can't believe that we're still here with some Republicans not understanding the game has been changed.
00:39:42.900 And again, you know, there's – as you said it before, I want to bring this up.
00:39:47.360 It isn't – divisive primaries are not good, especially when there are incumbents or quasi-incumbents in the race.
00:39:53.160 That's why the Democrats are doing everything in their power to stop RFK from even, you know, participating in debates or they're moving up South Carolina so that there isn't closed states where people can compete or cheat.
00:40:04.840 So really to wrap it up, it isn't – guys like me know it is not historically.
00:40:09.180 It doesn't make you stronger.
00:40:10.460 It weakens you.
00:40:11.340 And the money you're going to spend on a primary and the time you're going to use, you need both.
00:40:16.540 People's fund it.
00:40:17.420 We love you, Rich.
00:40:21.340 And we're back.
00:40:22.200 Now, guys, I got to tell you that here on Human Events, we're doing a live show now.
00:40:26.600 And the live show, it's a lot more high energy.
00:40:28.720 It's a lot more action-packed.
00:40:30.300 It's tactile.
00:40:31.340 There's a lot of stuff you can sink your teeth into, and it's not a lot of time.
00:40:34.340 So how do you get the energy to be prepared for all that?
00:40:38.040 How do I get the energy?
00:40:38.920 I'll tell you right now.
00:40:39.460 Now, this show is powered by Blackout Coffee, and you can be too.
00:40:44.880 So go to blackoutcoffee.com slash POSO and use a special promo code.
00:40:49.540 It's called promo code POSO20.
00:40:51.600 Why is it POSO20?
00:40:53.100 Well, that's because you can now get free shipping with promo code POSO20.
00:40:58.420 So you just go to blackoutcoffee.com, and I tell you, they sent me four bags of it.
00:41:02.660 Recently, we've been working on our way through.
00:41:04.360 I think we're down.
00:41:05.460 We're down.
00:41:05.680 Producer Angelo, do we have – we've got – we're at the end of the first bag.
00:41:09.460 And I've been drinking it all week.
00:41:11.860 And let me tell you something.
00:41:12.980 This thing with POSO20, you get 20% off with your first order.
00:41:18.720 So you get 20% off.
00:41:19.680 And you tell me whether you like blackout coffee or not.
00:41:22.900 I'm going to tell you something.
00:41:23.700 It powers us.
00:41:24.520 It'll power you.
00:41:25.200 You are going to love it.
00:41:27.300 Ladies and gentlemen, we need to have a conversation about ballot harvesting because there was a saying that they drilled into us in the military, and this was key.
00:41:39.980 Logistics wins wars, not strategy.
00:41:46.500 Logistics.
00:41:47.140 If you have and you are able to key, break down your logistics and pinpoint the logistical failures of your opponent, you're going to win.
00:41:57.060 You are absolutely going to win.
00:41:58.360 So in terms of warfare, we're talking politics, politics, politics here, of course.
00:42:05.980 Strategic, operational, tactical.
00:42:09.260 On a strategic picture, it's about, okay, are we going to go into a fight or not?
00:42:13.480 Are we going to do – what's the messaging?
00:42:14.880 Got that – all of it.
00:42:16.080 But you know something?
00:42:16.700 What has the left been focusing?
00:42:19.400 What have Democrats been focusing on?
00:42:21.640 They've been focusing on the operational.
00:42:24.320 They've been focusing on the tactical.
00:42:27.520 They know they can't win with their message. 0.89
00:42:30.920 They know their message is nuts.
00:42:33.100 When you look at the stuff when it comes to whether it be Target or whether it be Bud Light, et cetera, I know we mentioned.
00:42:38.800 By the way, there's some terrible people.
00:42:41.860 They're doing this new thing at Target now, and I hope that nobody does this because it's just so awful, and I can't condone it, where they're actually – I've seen people going viral on the Internet saying that they're going into Target and then putting all of the Pride merchandise into one shopping cart, taking that shopping cart all the way to the checkout, going to checkout, asking – getting all the payment processing, protection.
00:43:07.100 You need a protection plan, right?
00:43:08.320 And then the minute that after it's all rung up, they say, oh, you know what?
00:43:11.660 I left my wallet in the car and go out to the car and never come back.
00:43:15.440 And that is just so despicable and so awful that I would never condone it for a second that we use tactics like this to defeat the left – I just would absolutely never condone such a thing personally.
00:43:28.800 Not personally, I would never condone.
00:43:30.080 And definitely don't wear a mask and make sure that your car is outside of camera view because, of course, the cameras will pick you up because the only person that can't be picked up on cameras is the January 6th pipe bomber, even though, actually, it turns out he was picked up on cameras.
00:43:44.420 The FBI knew about it.
00:43:45.700 The FBI even knows his license plate, apparently, and yet somehow can't track this guy down.
00:43:52.280 It's amazing, isn't it, folks?
00:43:53.440 It's amazing.
00:43:54.080 Look, our elections have changed in this country.
00:43:57.360 And specifically, these key states, the ones that I was talking about with Barrist, the ones that we know are going to have to be flipped back regardless of who the nominee is, those laws are on the books now.
00:44:12.520 They'll be on the books for 2024.
00:44:14.720 And so what the Democrats are doing with their new laws is they've turned this whole thing into a ballot harvesting operation, micro-targeting, influencers, ballot harvesting on key issues.
00:44:29.260 So you don't – people say, what's going on this millennial vote?
00:44:31.660 What's going on this Gen D vote?
00:44:32.700 I think we're going to have Tyler Boyer on tomorrow to really break down this for us.
00:44:35.980 But it's not about shifting all millennials.
00:44:38.720 It's about shifting all Gen Z. 1.00
00:44:40.720 It's about collecting enough of their ballots.
00:44:43.000 What issue do you need to micro-target them on to the point where they will fill out a ballot and send it in for the candidate of your choice, the candidate that you tell them to vote for?
00:44:55.240 The only person that I've seen completely gung-ho about this is Scott Pressler.
00:45:00.180 And we're going to make sure that we get Scott Pressler wrong, and we're going to make sure that he is on as much as possible.
00:45:05.920 And you have to give this guy as much fire support as you can politically because this is the new game.
00:45:13.400 If you're upset about the debt ceiling bill, if you're upset about the border, if you're upset about whatever you're upset about, whatever it might be, right?
00:45:20.160 We talk about immigration.
00:45:21.140 We're going to talk about immigration more.
00:45:22.640 We're going to talk about Nearsheimer's warning, this idea that the United States is currently hurtling towards a two-front global conflict.
00:45:31.480 We're already in a proxy war in Ukraine.
00:45:33.180 We're talking about potentially escalating the South China Sea, the Taiwan crisis, into another open conflict where we're at the point where I'm wondering,
00:45:45.580 what is going to happen with these drone swarm tactics and the ability or the possibility for a U.S. aircraft carrier to lie at the bottom of the Taiwan Strait with the 5,000 sailors and officers aboard.
00:46:02.560 Because that's terrifying.
00:46:04.560 And you need to understand it.
00:46:07.180 And you need to also understand that the next person in the White House could determine whether that happens or not.
00:46:14.860 So following back, working backwards from there, where do we go?
00:46:19.680 And where do we go?
00:46:20.440 It doesn't matter how good your messaging is.
00:46:26.840 It doesn't matter how much you care about your candidate.
00:46:30.920 If the other side is going to beat you tactically, if the other side is going to beat you tactically with ballots in those key strategic states that you need to win,
00:46:41.900 then it doesn't matter how good your rollout is.
00:46:44.220 It doesn't matter how good your statement is, your policy statement.
00:46:47.720 It doesn't matter.
00:46:48.100 It doesn't matter how great plan is.
00:46:50.440 President Trump says that he would end the Ukraine war in 24 hours.
00:46:55.140 Okay?
00:46:56.600 But to get there, you have to play the game the way the game is set up.
00:47:03.600 And I hate it.
00:47:05.160 I wish it wasn't like this.
00:47:06.480 I'm the kind of guy, I believe one man, one vote, paper ballots.
00:47:10.460 I would go all the way back.
00:47:12.200 Voter ID, all of it.
00:47:14.000 But in these blue states, and even some of these purple states, which are now trending blue because of these tactics,
00:47:19.300 you don't have the ability to change any of it.
00:47:22.940 So what do you do?
00:47:24.660 You've got to play to win.
00:47:27.640 You've got to play to win.
00:47:29.260 And you can't complain.
00:47:30.980 You can't get mad.
00:47:32.000 All you can do is get better and come back and keep fighting.
00:47:36.480 If they bring 2,000 mules, we bring 10,000 mules.
00:47:41.940 If they put drop boxes outside every beer distributor, then we're going to put drop boxes in the back of every church. 0.65
00:47:51.860 And we are going to put drop boxes outside of gun shows and in gun stores and at gun ranges.
00:47:56.260 And we're going to put drop boxes everywhere we legally can within the confines of the United States.
00:48:01.780 And by the way, please, please try to sue us over putting drop boxes in churches.
00:48:06.620 America has been voting in churches as long as we've had the United States of America.
00:48:10.920 So gear up, New York Times.
00:48:13.420 When I'm working long hours, I'm always listening to Human Events with Jeff.
