For every lie they tell, we're going to get in their face and yell two truths.
00:00:45.600
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.
00:00:49.960
Now we know the document Donald Trump was showing these people with zero security clearance was an
00:00:56.340
actual highly classified document that had to do with war plans.
00:01:03.200
They've now added a charge against Donald Trump.
00:01:05.620
Well, you may have noticed a spike at the gas station again.
00:01:11.400
Yeah, that's on top of the four cents yesterday.
00:01:16.560
Facebook executives discussed in July of 2021 how they managed users' posts about the origin
00:01:22.040
of the pandemic that the White House wanted to control.
00:01:24.640
Facebook's vice president in charge of content policy emailing were under pressure from the
00:01:30.320
Clinton's jab came as a response to a left-wing think tank's post about hot temperatures this
00:01:41.960
Out of sight for 30 days, questions circulating on his whereabouts.
00:01:46.900
China's foreign minister, Qinggang, replaced by his predecessor, Wang Yi.
00:01:51.720
Wagner leader, Yevgeny Prigozhin, is in St. Petersburg, Russia, in the same city as Putin,
00:01:57.580
the man he tried to depose in an armed rebellion just last month.
00:02:04.540
I think he has to get out for the good of the party.
00:02:07.460
Um, he could have waited and he would have been odds on favorite for 28th, but he didn't
00:02:14.840
Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events with Jack
00:02:23.380
We've got huge breaking developments today, folks.
00:02:26.520
New indictment on President Trump and one of his maintenance men.
00:02:30.100
One that includes, by the way, a phone call, supposedly, between the two of them.
00:02:35.560
Um, does the DOJ and Jack Smith have Mar-a-Lago wired?
00:02:42.620
How are they able to get the contents of direct phone calls between the two of them?
00:02:49.420
But we've also got new developments in the 2024 horse race.
00:02:54.220
We're looking at Vivek Ramaswamy now coming in second place, surpassing Ron DeSantis in
00:03:02.860
And then on the Democrat side, you've got RFK out there eating up 20% in the polls against
00:03:09.300
sitting President Joe Biden, you know, asterisk next to his name.
00:03:13.560
To help me break down this and so much more, we bring on longtime legendary political strategist
00:03:20.740
Roger, thanks for joining us again here at Human Events.
00:03:27.160
It is one of the foundational publications of the entire conservative movement.
00:03:32.360
Roger, when when we look at the current state of play in the primaries on both sides, to
00:03:41.060
me, it looks as though the on the Republican side, it looks as though this race is wrapping
00:03:46.060
up quite quickly, a lot more, a lot faster than people realized.
00:03:49.360
But then on the Democrat side, you have a huge surge for RFK.
00:03:56.440
Explain to us the dynamic that you're seeing now.
00:04:02.980
What's amazing is that Vivek Ramaswamy is seems to be climbing, despite the fact that
00:04:08.240
he, unlike Ron DeSantis, has not spent millions of dollars advertising in some of the early
00:04:15.140
So this is just on the basis of his performance on the stump and his free media approach.
00:04:21.220
I think he's helped by the fact that his basic campaign messaging has been supportive
00:04:26.780
of President Donald Trump and has been a major critic of those who are trying to disqualify
00:04:35.480
DeSantis, by my calculations, may be out of money by October.
00:04:40.380
In other words, if you look at the small percentage of money that he's getting from small and medium
00:04:46.360
sized donors and the large number of maxed out maximum contributors, plus the the exit of
00:04:53.300
many major bundlers, I think that he's in deep trouble and he has spent millions of dollars
00:05:00.140
in these early primary and caucus states and he's just not getting any traction.
00:05:05.400
I'm reminded of the story of the guy who was in the dog food manufacturing business who
00:05:15.220
He said, well, the dogs just didn't like the stuff.
00:05:18.160
The dogs just didn't like the stuff at some point.
00:05:22.960
You do actually have to consider your customers.
00:05:25.760
And it it feels as though and I've had Vivek on the on the show.
00:05:30.760
But at the same time, it feels just at the end of the day, like he's just read the room
00:05:34.540
a little bit better than some of these other candidates.
00:05:39.940
Look, no incumbent president who faced a significant challenge but turned it back has gone on to be
00:05:46.920
reelected. Robert F. Kennedy definitely poses a serious challenge to Joe Biden.
00:05:52.160
And that's why there is increasing panic in the mainstream media and the Biden camp.
00:05:58.460
I think you're exactly right about that, Roger.
00:06:00.060
I want to hold you over because that's something that I think that even conservative media hasn't
00:06:05.580
really picked up on very much, even though to their credit, they've had RFK on many times.
00:06:09.960
Even Sean Hannity had that town hall where you saw Sean Hannity get his neoconservative
00:06:15.120
desserts served to him. But I want to stay tuned because I want to talk to Roger more about this
00:06:19.740
and the historical precedent of the RFK race. Stay tuned. Human Events continues.
00:06:25.960
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:06:29.160
All right, we're back here. Jack Posobiec, Human Events Live.
00:06:31.920
Look, folks, I told you before, I'm going to say again, this show is powered by Blackout Coffee.
00:06:37.400
I love my Blackout Coffee. When Tanya comes over, she said, no, look, the nice thing about having a
00:06:42.520
wife from Eastern Europe is that Eastern Europe is more the tea part of Europe, right?
00:06:47.440
They're not into the coffee as much as I am. So I make myself the coffee. I don't got to share
00:06:51.640
that coffee with her at all. And even if she wanted it, I wouldn't share it to begin with.
00:06:55.900
You too can refuse to share your coffee with your wife by going to blackoutcoffee.com and ordering some
00:07:02.240
with promo code POSO20. Why is it POSO20? Because the 20 gets you 20% off your first order.
00:07:09.580
So even though you're getting 20% off, you can get 100% of that by not sharing a single drop.
00:07:16.420
Go to blackoutcoffee.com, promo code POSO20. We're back here with Roger Stone. Roger, before the break,
00:07:22.420
you were breaking down for us this interesting historical trend that you've identified
00:07:26.260
with the RFK primary against Joe Biden. Walk us through this a little bit more. You're saying that
00:07:32.660
no incumbent president has ever faced a serious challenge from within their own party and then
00:07:39.800
gone on to win reelection. Does that actually bear out? Well, in modern times, so for example,
00:07:47.000
Gerald Ford turned back a very spirited challenge from Governor Ronald Reagan, went on to lose to
00:07:53.840
Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter turned back a very spirited challenge from Robert F. Kennedy's uncle,
00:08:00.300
Edward Ted Kennedy, which did not go very well, but was still got huge media coverage, went on to lose
00:08:09.480
that election to Ronald Reagan. I honestly think that Kennedy is scoring, ironically, not on the issues
00:08:17.660
of health freedom, and not even particularly on the issue of peace, which is ironic, given the changes
00:08:23.940
in the modern Democratic Party, but on the pocketbook issues, on the hollowing out of the middle class,
00:08:30.720
on the fact that housing is not available. He has a very interesting housing voucher program,
00:08:37.600
a 76% increase in the cost of groceries, the ravaging inflation. These breadbasket issues have
00:08:47.340
always had resonance within the Democratic primary, and as I think, as Robert Kennedy gets more
00:08:53.660
exposure on those issues, I think he will continue to rise. I also see in his campaign an extremely
00:09:02.020
skillful use of alternative media. He really has no choice. The three major broadcast networks,
00:09:09.920
the two major cable networks, although he gets some coverage on Fox, really have gone
00:09:17.180
out of their way to try to kneecap him, to try to censor him. Even when he gives an interview on, say, ABC,
00:09:24.200
they heavily edit it to take out sections of his messaging because they say he is spreading, quote,
00:09:30.320
misinformation, as opposed to letting the voters decide whether they believe what he has to say or not.
00:09:38.200
Yeah, Roger, I just pulled it up, as you mentioned here. So the last time this occurred, it was to a Democrat.
00:09:42.740
It was Jimmy Carter, the election of 1980. And in the same race, once again, you had a Kennedy
00:09:48.840
running against. This was the sitting senator of Massachusetts running against his own president.
00:09:55.380
Now, obviously, Ted Kennedy didn't do very well, but I don't think people realize just how well
00:09:59.580
Kennedy did in that race. So I've pulled up here the results. He won 12 states, 12 states across the
00:10:06.780
country, including New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, in the primary, New York, New Jersey,
00:10:11.100
Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Washington, D.C., North Dakota,
00:10:16.060
South Dakota, both Dakotas, Arizona, Utah, or excuse me, Arizona, New Mexico and California,
00:10:22.280
garnering 37.6 percent, almost 38 percent of the Democrat primary. That's a huge chunk of voters
00:10:29.700
that it looks like many of them did not later turn out for Carter as the eventual nominee,
00:10:35.260
allowing Ronald Reagan to score his upset victory in 1980, which I believe that Roger Stone knows
00:10:41.540
is a little familiar with that that particular campaign, having obviously worked on it.
00:10:47.200
Do you see some of these same trends at play here in the 2023 to 2024 cycle?
00:10:54.060
I think that everything you say is true. I also think there's another analogy, and that is I expect
00:11:01.340
the Democratic Party, the machine, which has already changed the Democratic selection process
00:11:07.460
to strip Iowa from its delegates, to strip New Hampshire of its delegates, if they dare hold those
00:11:14.300
contests, which, by the way, are mandated by state law, before the first South Carolina primary.
00:11:21.140
The real question, of course, is I think Robert Kennedy still has some of the Camelot mystique,
00:11:26.760
still has some of the Kennedy magic, and therefore, as you move to states that, unlike, say,
00:11:33.200
New Hampshire, where 90 plus percent of the voters are white, as you move to states like Nevada,
00:11:39.280
for example, where you have a larger African-American and Hispanic population, I think the Kennedy name
00:11:45.800
has greater resonance. He is also, I must say, in terms of his performance on the stump, he is
00:11:53.380
extraordinarily articulate. Now, you will never see Robert Kennedy backed into a corner. He is very
00:12:00.240
able, in terms of producing a study or a series of studies, to prove all of his arguments. It is very,
00:12:08.440
very persuasive. Now, he has this degenerative condition with his voice, but in all honesty,
00:12:14.960
after the first five minutes, you become so engrossed in what he is saying that you really
00:12:20.660
don't notice it at all that much. I think he's running a very innovative campaign, given the
00:12:29.960
Roger, do you then, that being said, even if he's not able to defeat Joe Biden, the way they run their
00:12:36.880
delegates in that process, what do you see as a potential outcome for him, if, as I believe, that
00:12:43.840
the, you know, the poobahs of the Democrat Party, the elites there, will eventually pull the plug on his
00:12:50.500
Well, I do think they're going to kneecap him the way they kneecapped Bernie Sanders, but for
00:12:55.820
different reasons. A very interesting interview he gave to Laura Ingraham about a month ago,
00:13:01.360
when he was asked if he would endorse Joe Biden if he lost the Democratic nomination to him,
00:13:07.980
he essentially said, well, I'd have to think about that. Politics, that means no. Then when he was
00:13:14.460
asked if he would be willing to serve in the cabinet of a Republican president, say Donald Trump, he said,
00:13:21.980
well, I'd have to seriously consider that. Now, it's important to note that there's great historical
00:13:26.680
precedent for this. Franklin Roosevelt's Secretary of War, Frank Knox, was a Republican.
00:13:34.880
Barack Obama's Secretary of Transportation, Ray LaHood, was a Republican congressman from Illinois.
00:13:41.260
Richard Nixon, Secretary of the Treasury. John Connolly was a Democrat, later became a Republican.
00:13:47.640
John F. Kennedy, his uncle, his Secretary of the Treasury, C. Douglas Dillon, a Republican from New
00:13:53.740
Jersey. So there is a tradition of having bipartisan cabinet. And I think the Kennedy voter is not going
00:14:01.520
to be comfortable with Joe Biden at the end of this process. I think that populist voter, particularly on
00:14:08.020
the basis of the war and peace issue, particularly where Robert Kennedy wants to seal our southern
00:14:15.080
border. Robert Kennedy is very skeptical about the war in Ukraine. Those voters, I think, in the end
00:14:22.040
gravitate to Donald Trump. You know, that being said, RFK's own father obviously also served in
00:14:30.900
the cabinet, obviously famously for his own brother as attorney general. What potential role would you
00:14:36.300
see for him? Maybe a, I don't know about Secretary of Defense, but DHS, attorney general, something with
00:14:41.500
more of a legal element to it, or even HHS, potentially? HHS, the head of CDC. But perhaps
00:14:49.800
since he has been very forthright about the role of the Central Intelligence Agency in the murder of
00:14:56.600
his uncle, John F. Kennedy, and probably in the murder of his father, Robert F. Kennedy, Sr., the U.S.
00:15:03.780
senator from New York and former attorney general. I can't think of anybody who'd have a greater
00:15:09.420
motivation to clean out the deep state than Robert Kennedy. I think he'd be a great attorney
00:15:15.380
general. Now, there are some conservatives who may be concerned about his position on some social
00:15:20.600
issues. I'm pro-life. He happens to be pro-abortion. But those policies are set by a president. They're not
00:15:27.680
set by the attorney general. And I think on the broader war and peace issues and the abuses by our
00:15:35.660
intelligence agencies, he makes a lot of sense as a potential attorney general. Look, this is all
00:15:41.300
completely hypothetical. As of this moment, based on everything I've heard him say, I think he's
00:15:47.280
determined to win the Democratic nomination. And at this point, I don't think Donald Trump is talking
00:15:52.100
about Robert Kennedy. He's got other things on his mind. But politics, as you know, can evolve very
00:15:58.720
quickly. And these kind of decisions will be made in the middle and the end of next year.
00:16:04.660
Well, I have to imagine, you know, having seen the last RNC convention in 2016, we haven't actually
00:16:13.360
had a convention since that day in Cleveland in 2016. Imagine the headlines if you get Donald Trump
00:16:21.660
there in Milwaukee, as it'll be later next year, going up and saying that he's announcing that he's
00:16:28.520
going to name RFK Jr. to his cabinet. Do you what kind of effect do you think that would have on the
00:16:34.660
general? I think it would be electrifying. Look, I wrote a piece, kind of a, you know, an outside the
00:16:42.860
box piece on my sub stack several months ago, in which I talked wistfully about a Trump Kennedy
00:16:49.060
ticket. Now, let me be very clear. I don't think either man is open to that idea at this very
00:16:53.740
moment, based on everything I have read in my own conversations with Donald Trump. However, I also
00:17:00.420
recognize the legal obstacles to that. Robert Kennedy is never going to leave the party of his father
00:17:06.720
and his uncle. He's a lifelong Democrat. As he said before Congress, he's dedicated his life to the
00:17:12.460
values of the Democratic Party. That would not prevent him from serving in the cabinet. But almost
00:17:18.700
30 states require for a person to be on the ballot as a Republican candidate for federal office.
00:17:25.720
They have to be a registered member of that party, which I think really puts a Trump Kennedy ticket,
00:17:32.380
while a fanciful and interesting idea, probably highly unlikely. And that would be in the event
00:17:38.520
that either man or both men were willing. On the other hand, service in the cabinet is an entirely
00:17:45.240
different story. And I really see the fusing of a larger populist movement here in both parties,
00:17:52.960
not to mention attracting a number of independents, which Trump has demonstrated an ability to do
00:17:58.680
in the past. I think it would be a very tough combination for the Democrats to beat without,
00:18:04.320
of course, exhorting to the lawfare that they're currently trying to use in an effort to disqualify
00:18:09.720
Trump. Why? Because he's running so far ahead of Joe Biden in all of the national polls. That's why.
00:18:16.900
Roger, we've got a quick break. We're going to come back later with Roger giving us the truth
00:18:22.940
You talk about influencers. These are influencers. And they're friends of mine. Jack Fosovic. Where's Jack?
00:18:39.120
Jack Fosovic, we are back here with Roger Stone. We continue our interview today,
00:18:44.980
Human Events, live from Washington, D.C. So, Roger, the whole country's talking about Oppenheimer and
00:18:50.960
Barbie and all these different movies. It's summertime. People are going to the movie theater.
00:18:55.200
I watched Oppenheimer and I was, I thought I was intrigued. I was going to be treated to a movie
00:19:01.040
about the building of the atomic bomb, America's victory in World War II, a very rah-rah patriotic
00:19:07.040
film focusing on science. That's not what the film was about at all. In fact, the film was a
00:19:13.720
hagiography of Oppenheimer and sought through Christopher Nolan. And he's a British filmmaker,
00:19:21.060
not an American filmmaker, but really seemed to answer the question as to whether or not
00:19:25.620
Oppenheimer was a communist. And it spends three hours on this, only about 10 minutes of which
00:19:32.900
you actually see an atomic bomb test. And this is the Trinity test in New Mexico, where I've actually
00:19:39.400
visited the white stands missile range. You don't, there's no shots of Hiroshima. There's no shots
00:19:44.760
of Nagasaki, no, you know, American heroes storming the beaches of Iwo Jima, the island hopping, none of
00:19:51.120
this. It's all completely omitted. But instead we're, we're feeded to these committee hearings
00:19:55.800
and Republicans are portrayed as the enemy going after these brave American liberals like Oppenheimer,
00:20:03.620
who yes, may have flirted with communism at some point, but certainly, and obviously had nothing to do
00:20:09.180
with communism whatsoever. However, they, they failed to mention that the Manhattan project itself
00:20:15.040
was penetrated by Soviet intelligence, specifically the NKVD, and did receive nuclear weapons technology,
00:20:22.900
nuclear weapons systems technology from communist sympathizers within this unit. The, this is what
00:20:29.820
kicks off the hearings. This is the reason that they were being investigated in the first place. It
00:20:35.600
wasn't a, you know, a direct personal attack. They had actual evidence of this. And in fact, there were
00:20:40.720
American spies, or I would say communist spies in America who were executed over this. Roger, do you
00:20:47.680
know, and can you lay out for us, what is the true story of Oppenheimer and the communist infiltration
00:20:53.980
in the United States starting back in the thirties all the way through? Well, this is a typical Hollywood
00:21:00.200
attempt to rewrite history. They've been at this for some time. The same people who told us, for example,
00:21:06.620
for decades, that Alger Hiss, who accompanied Franklin Roosevelt at Yalta, who was a high level
00:21:13.420
State Department official in the Roosevelt administration, was not a Russian spy. It was a
00:21:19.800
young Congressman Richard Nixon, who first took the testimony of Whitaker Chambers, a kind of rumpled
00:21:26.820
Time Magazine editor, who insisted that Hiss had been his contact to whom he passed government secrets.
00:21:35.960
Hiss had passed them to Chambers to pass on to the Communist Party. Nixon was vilified for this,
00:21:44.420
even though ultimately Alger Hiss was convicted, not of being a spy, but convicted of perjury,
00:21:51.000
lying about the facts. Hiss actually produced the microfiche film that he had gotten from Hiss and proved
00:21:59.100
that the transmittal documents had been typed on a typewriter owned by Hiss and his wife. The same
00:22:07.220
people who tell us Hiss was not a spy, by the way, were disproved because when the Soviet Union fell
00:22:13.660
and we got a hold of the KGB records, we learned that Hiss was indeed a spy and that young Congressman
00:22:20.760
Richard Nixon was absolutely right. Now they tell us, well, Joe McCarthy, you know, was on a red
00:22:27.500
scare. He ruined lives. He ruined reputations. There were no, there was no communist infiltration
00:22:33.420
in the Roosevelt and the Truman administrations. This incredible book, Blacklisted by History,
00:22:40.020
by M. Stanton Evans, which Ann Coulter called the second greatest book after the Bible,
00:22:45.740
documents meticulously the communist infiltration of our country and the fact that Senator Joe
00:22:52.540
McCarthy was essentially correct. He was right about all of it. Now, in the case of Oppenheimer,
00:22:59.540
we know that the Los Alamos project was infiltrated by communist spies, Klaus Fuchs specifically,
00:23:08.720
Carl Greenglass. These people passed our atomic secrets on to Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, both of
00:23:16.940
whom were convicted of spying for the Soviet Union and ultimately executed. Fuchs himself would be
00:23:24.220
imprisoned for his role as a special, as a Soviet spy. So the real question is, what about Oppenheimer
00:23:31.240
himself? If you go look at the reviews in the- Well then, and Roger, just to quick give the
00:23:40.160
audience, as some people may have seen and haven't seen the movie, none of these characters are even
00:23:44.180
featured in the film. None of these people are even discussed. They're not mentioned. There isn't a,
00:23:49.780
you know, nobody's watching the newsreel and hearing about the Rosenbergs and Fuchs and any of
00:23:54.820
this. It's completely omitted. And we are told that these were just, you know, patriotic American
00:24:01.660
scientists who happen to have a little bit left of center ideals. And they've been reading a bit of
00:24:07.240
reading a bit of angles and wanted to inject that to help their common man. And it doesn't even explain
00:24:13.580
that there were scientists that were directly working for Oppenheimer that formed a communist cell
00:24:20.720
and were in fact pilfering American nuclear secrets and sending them over to the Soviets.
00:24:27.800
Most specifically, Klaus Fuchs, who had infiltrated the project, was reporting at that point to the KGB.
00:24:36.860
He had originally started as a British spy. But there's no question that the entire Manhattan
00:24:42.600
project is infiltrated. And on the basis of that information, the Russians developed an atomic weapon
00:24:50.060
two years earlier than American intelligence thought they would do so. All of this is airbrushed
00:24:56.520
out of the picture in Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer himself was likely a communist. It is hinted at.
00:25:03.060
He's not just a well-meaning liberal who didn't want to drop the atomic bomb on Japan because he cared
00:25:08.680
about all these Asian people. No, I think he was likely a part of the circle of the cell of communists
00:25:16.980
that infiltrated the Manhattan Project. We will never know for certain, but the circumstantial
00:25:23.840
So, Roger, the film does show a bit of this. And this is where Chris Nolan kind of plays the bait
00:25:32.240
and switch, where he shows, well, yes, Oppenheimer did have a communist mistress. Yes, he was involved
00:25:37.180
with communists at Berkeley. Yes, it turns out that he has his mistress and his wife at the same time,
00:25:42.840
both of which end up being communists. He's sending money to the communist cause in the Spanish Civil War.
00:25:48.220
His brother's a communist. His brother-in-law's a communist. But there's no possible way that he
00:25:53.900
himself could have ever been one. And that was just because he cared about the United States
00:25:59.680
so very much. Are we to believe this? Are we to believe that he viewed this merely as an ideological
00:26:07.120
thing and not to the point where there are scenes where he's going to Truman saying,
00:26:12.620
we shouldn't build the hydrogen bomb. The danger of nuclear proliferation is too great. We could destroy
00:26:17.700
the world. Are we really to believe that this man had no knowledge of what was going on there?
00:26:23.220
No, I think not. You know, if you look like a communist, you smell like a communist, you walk
00:26:28.140
like a communist, you're most likely a communist. If all of your associates are communists, you're most
00:26:33.660
likely a communist. This is an attempt to deify Oppenheimer. By the way, where's Edward Teller in the
00:26:39.640
movie? Why is there no reference to him? Teller was a patriotic American and one of the most
00:26:45.960
important scientists in terms of developing this hydrogen bomb technology, almost absent in the
00:26:52.920
movie. This is a propaganda piece, which I think glosses over the high probability that Oppenheimer
00:26:58.920
himself was involved in the communist cell, which ultimately leaked our most sensitive atomic secrets
00:27:06.700
Well, and then so let's, let's go, let's broaden it out here, because there, you know, the idea that
00:27:15.180
the Soviets would be able to penetrate directly into the Manhattan Project, which of course, overtly
00:27:19.600
was not shared with them, doesn't it speak to potentially a larger infiltration within the
00:27:26.400
American government? And in my own series, The China Files, I walk out through how that even when I was
00:27:32.040
doing my undergrad at Temple University, I wrote an entire thesis on how it seemed as though the
00:27:37.700
Americans, the American mission in China was writing these, these missives back through the
00:27:43.680
State Department and early, the early offices of the OSS, saying, why aren't we helping? Why aren't
00:27:51.240
we helping Chiang Kai-shek? Why aren't we helping the nationalists? The communists are on the move.
00:27:55.320
Chairman Mao is about to overrun every single position we have. And we're doing nothing other than offer
00:28:00.180
basic face saving. But we know that that communist China is about to rise and take over the entire
00:28:06.340
country, whereas a lot of people have pointed out to say, well, it may have actually been deliberate.
00:28:12.160
Well, this continues right into the 1960s. When the Bay of Pigs invasion is launched, it is absolutely
00:28:18.780
clear that leaks in U.S. intelligence mean that Fidel Castro knows exactly where they are coming, the Bay of
00:28:25.780
Pigs, and when they are coming, which is why the Cuban freedom fighters storming the beaches are cut
00:28:32.220
to ribbons by Cuban sharpshooters. Also, we now know that the air cover that was supposed to be supplied
00:28:41.020
by 29 Panamanian flagged bombers, captained by Cuban pilots and flown out of Panama, were canceled by
00:28:51.720
Charles Cable, the number two man in the CIA, the day before the invasion. This is part of the invasion
00:28:57.900
plan that JFK had approved. Then when the Joint Chiefs went to Kennedy and said, you've got to order
00:29:04.000
in the U.S. Air Force, he correctly saw it would be a provocation to the Russians and a probable beginning
00:29:10.020
of World War III, and he refused to do so. That minor piece of history has now been proven, but it is
00:29:17.580
missing from all of the mainstream narratives regarding the Bay of Pigs.
00:29:23.760
Well, and it goes through again and again and again to show us that the same Hollywood, which
00:29:30.740
I tweeted this this morning, that it's been four years since Jeffrey Epstein was killed, and yet I
00:29:36.240
can't see anyone in Hollywood raising their hand and saying, I'd like to make a feature film of this.
00:29:41.820
We should make one of these streaming series about this, that Hollywood, I believe, very carefully
00:29:47.580
picks and chooses its causes, and there are certain causes that they will never make a film against.
00:29:55.300
Well, Jack, it's just coincidental that the security cameras just happened to be turned off
00:29:59.740
at the exact time that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. Kind of like the security cameras at the
00:30:05.340
White House don't capture who it was who left that little bag of cocaine. We're expected to believe
00:30:10.300
this nonsense, or I believe the latest that the 911 call log up at Martha's Vineyard doesn't record
00:30:18.900
the name of the second paddleboarder who is there with the pad. It's every time, right? Every single
00:30:25.700
time, there's always this piece of information that we seem to be lost when it comes to one of
00:30:31.680
these investigations into a suspicious death around the president or one of their connections when they
00:30:36.660
seem to be part of this click. Stay tuned. We're coming back with more final segment with Roger Stone
00:30:42.500
after the break, the truth about communists' infiltration into the U.S. government.
00:30:47.320
All right, we're back here. Jack Posobiec, human events, live Washington, D.C. Roger Stone breaking
00:31:03.920
down for us the truth about Oppenheimer, the infiltration of the United States government in
00:31:08.640
the 1930s, the 1940s, through the 1960s. Roger, this was my thesis. And you tell me if I'm wrong.
00:31:14.980
Tell me if I'm out of, you know, out of line in here. But I wrote this when I was in living in
00:31:20.660
Shanghai, pulling up these declassified State Department cables from basically this period just
00:31:28.340
at the end of World War II and that but before the communists had taken over China. So 1945 to 1949
00:31:34.880
from inside China. And it it seems as though that the communists were essentially allowed to take
00:31:44.420
China, who's responsible for the fall of China becomes sort of the the parlor game in D.C. after
00:31:48.800
this. And it seems as though it's the administration and by and large or but perhaps the deal had been
00:31:54.440
struck earlier, because there's this huge push and you do see the same push echoed in the Oppenheimer
00:32:01.640
film for the idea that the United Nations should then become a form of a form of one world government,
00:32:09.600
basically. And they're chasing this idea of a one world government and this globalist ideal,
00:32:14.180
which goes all the way back to Wilson and Geneva and the rest of it. But it looks as though,
00:32:21.040
you know, communist China was the dowry for the Soviet Union to go along with the United Nations
00:32:28.180
plan. And I've never in the rest of my life since then found any information that actually dispels that
00:32:35.300
that's actually what happened. And so when we talk about the real history of World War II,
00:32:40.780
it seems that all of these decisions are completely omitted.
00:32:43.440
Well, it's kind of interesting in the movie Oppenheimer, while they don't say that Oppenheimer
00:32:48.840
is a communist, they continually imply that he is at a minimum a fellow traveler. And I think that
00:32:55.480
that is a very common happenstance in the 30s, 40s and 50s. People will say, oh, name one communist
00:33:05.560
who was exposed by Joe McCarthy. Where? Well, Harry Dexter White, a high level treasury official who gets
00:33:13.360
the engraving printing plates for American currency over to the Soviets. There's a perfect example.
00:33:19.700
Now, I think if you, again, this is, I think, the single best text blacklisted by history by M.
00:33:27.480
Stanton Evans, who wrote extensively for Human Events, by the way, former boy editor of the Indianapolis
00:33:34.120
News, founder of the American Conservative Union, in on the founding of Young Americans for Freedom.
00:33:39.840
He heavily documents the communist infiltration of both the Roosevelt and the Truman administrations.
00:33:47.880
It was not, as Harry Truman said, a red herring. And of course, as I said earlier, the epic role played
00:33:55.100
by Alger Hiss, a communist spy, for which Richard Nixon was vilified for decades, for which he was
00:34:02.220
hated, but proven when the Soviet Union fell, that Hiss was, in fact, a spy at Franklin Roosevelt's right hand.
00:34:13.220
So, Roger, was this, at some point, you believe, was this the original intention, League of Nations,
00:34:21.220
the United Nations? Today, you can fast forward all the way up to today, and they call it, what, the rules-based order.
00:34:27.400
It seems to be this idea that the creation of a one-world government will prevent, and we've all
00:34:33.700
heard the line, right, this will prevent war from breaking out again, Francis Fukuyama tells us,
00:34:39.300
it's the end of history, one global government, one currency, et cetera, to rule them all, that being,
00:34:46.400
of course, the U.S. dollar. Does this indeed play into some of these decisions?
00:34:51.880
No, I don't think there's any question. What they really want to do is do away with American
00:34:56.020
sovereignty, that we would be, we would go, as Wendell Wilkie said, to one world, meaning one
00:35:02.160
world government. They want to erase American sovereignty. The World Economic Forum is very
00:35:08.780
blunt about their plans. Even though those guys are like Batman cartoon villains, there's nothing
00:35:16.760
funny about their agenda. Although, let me say this, Jack, and I want to make it very clear,
00:35:21.340
no matter what, I'm not eating any bugs, period.
00:35:26.300
No, no bugs in the, Roger. But, Roger, we're told there's such a source of protein. In fact,
00:35:31.340
NPR calls that a racist conspiracy theory. And then if only one wants to go and look at some
00:35:39.000
of NPR's previous reporting, you can find article after article after article of NPR actually
00:35:44.880
encouraging the eating of bugs. And no, I agree with you, Roger. I think this is something that
00:35:50.800
it's a piece of U.S. history that I would love to see. You know, I mentioned before about an Epstein
00:35:56.900
movie. And look, we've all seen the success of Sound of Freedom. Roger, do you think that it's
00:36:01.680
possible that we have books about these shades of history that are never told, these forgotten shades
00:36:08.740
or hidden shades of history? We've got, you know, obviously shows like myself, your own. Do you think
00:36:14.020
that there's a market now that's possibly viable with Angel Studios or other crowdfunding that we
00:36:19.280
could actually get some feature films made about some of these topics? One would hope so. Look,
00:36:25.360
I think it is important to look at it historically. Art has often affected popular culture and popular
00:36:31.500
opinion. So Oliver Stone's movie JFK leads to an upheaval in which the Kennedy assassination
00:36:39.040
is reexamined by the Congress, reexamined by the American people. It's a great movie. I got a nice
00:36:46.780
note from Oliver Stone after the movie. He read my book, The Man Who Killed Kennedy, The Case Against
00:36:53.340
LBJ. And he told me he wished he had read my book before he produced the movie because he minimized the
00:36:59.740
role of Lyndon Johnson in John F. Kennedy's assassination. So I think this is a unique opportunity.
00:37:06.220
I must tell you, Sound of Freedom is one of the most incredible experiences I have had. First of all,
00:37:14.380
it really blew me away when I went to see it. I also had the opportunity to interview Eduardo
00:37:20.500
Verostegui, the producer and one of the actors in the movie, who's now thinking about running for
00:37:27.120
president of Mexico. The number of eyes that have been opened through this powerful film
00:37:33.380
is really edifying. And it leads me to believe that what you just said is absolutely true.
00:37:39.160
More feature length films telling the truth about history and the truth about some of these issues
00:37:45.460
is the way through pop culture to get more people to understand what has really happened,
00:37:50.580
what has really happened and what is really happening today.
00:37:54.380
Now, do you and do you and Oliver run into each other at family reunions? Are you guys at the
00:37:59.000
barbecue there together? I'm friends with his son, Sean Stone, who probably his politics are probably
00:38:05.880
closer to yours and mine than he is to his father. Oliver never really understood the dangers of the
00:38:12.620
Soviet Union or of Russian communism. And of course, he has deified Fidel Castro. But his son,
00:38:19.780
Sean Stone, who is not a right winger by any means, but a bit more of a libertarian,
00:38:24.920
is a brilliant filmmaker in his own right. And I'm in touch with him.
00:38:31.000
Well, you know, maybe we have to hook him up with Amanda Milius as the daughter of John Milius,
00:38:37.160
and we can get that, you know, the next generation of filmmakers together. All right. So, Roger,
00:38:42.240
let's let I've got some questions. The chat's popping off right here. So when the Roger Stone
00:38:47.000
feature film is made, I mean, there's documentary after documentary about you. But when the feature film
00:38:51.820
is made, who do you want playing you? That's obvious. James Woods should play me without any
00:38:56.980
question whatsoever. James. All right. Well, what about what about in your younger years,
00:39:01.600
though? What about young Roger Stone? That's that's a much tougher one. I'm less familiar
00:39:05.860
with younger actors. But James Woods plays Bob Haldeman in Oliver Stone's film Nixon. And he
00:39:13.660
absolutely positively nails it. So that's who I want to play me in my older years. Of course,
00:39:20.380
I'm still a young man. But in my much older years, what we do, the they have the, you know,
00:39:26.080
the CGI, the de-aging, right? Not that you'd need much of it. But we'll do that for for James when
00:39:31.040
it's the younger years. Roger, just one minute left. Where can people go to follow you? What
00:39:35.540
should people be looking at over the next couple of weeks? Sure. They can go every day at five o'clock
00:39:41.880
Eastern to StoneZone.live to catch my daily show. They can also go to WABC radio on Sundays by
00:39:50.280
going to W.A.B.C. radio dot com from three to five o'clock Sunday afternoons. This coming
00:39:57.760
weekend, we have Garrett Ziegler from the Marco Polo Foundation of Marco Polo Research Group. Pardon
00:40:04.260
me. We have Cash Patel and we also have Nick Adams, the ultimate alpha male. So you want to tune in for
00:40:11.820
that W.A.B.C. radio dot com this Sunday from three to five. I like Nick Adams. You know,
00:40:19.220
he keeps inviting my brother out to those events they have down there in Tampa. I think he's trying
00:40:23.000
to steal him away from me. Well, I've had the opportunity to knock back a few cold domestic
00:40:28.940
beers with him at Hooters. He's a terrific guy. He's a great patriot. You should tell your brother to
00:40:34.100
hook up with it for sure. All right. We'll take heaven. He's he just hit it across his one year
00:40:39.960
down there in the in the land of Florida with you guys. So we'll have to see Roger Stone. Always a
00:40:45.360
pleasure. Everyone, if you are not following Roger Stone, then you are not doing politics right. This
00:40:51.500
man has forgotten more than most operatives will ever learn in their lifetime. Make sure you go to
00:40:57.000
follow him. Coming back, we've got a very special interview with a new type of connection platform
00:41:03.220
for conservatives in business and not only people who are in business, but people who are looking
00:41:08.660
for jobs. This is very interesting and it's part of the new parallel economy. Stay tuned. Human events
00:41:14.160
continues. When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with bloods and them boys had a saying. You can't be
00:41:22.780
listening to all that slappy, whack, trimatazol, it's a bam ship, nippy, bam, bam, like human events
00:41:28.640
with Jack Posobiec. All right, Jack Posobiec, we're back here live with human events. I wanted to bring
00:41:35.720
in now very special guest, Andrew Krappichatz. He is the founder and CEO of a new firm. It's actually a
00:41:42.260
service called Red Balloon. And we've been talking so much here on human events about the need for the
00:41:49.820
parallel economy, different people, different players getting involved in the parallel economy.
00:41:54.500
Vivek Ramaswamy, this was really his big claim to fame before he ran for office, that he was getting
00:41:59.720
involved in the payment processor aspect of this. By the way, Vivek, whatever happens, I want you to
00:42:06.500
make sure that the payment processor still goes through because we absolutely need that. People
00:42:12.200
are going to be getting banned for their politics very soon in terms of payment processing. And so we need
00:42:17.020
this on the board. Vivek Ramaswamy is another example of this. And the latest to come along
00:42:21.620
is Red Balloon. Andrew, thank you so much for joining us today. Tell us about Red Balloon and
00:42:25.680
what led you to found it. Yeah, thanks for having me, Jack. So I was the CEO of actually a reasonably
00:42:31.340
large tech company about two years ago. And we kind of hit COVID and BLM and George Floyd and all the
00:42:37.340
craziness. And I started having my board tell me I had to make statements that I totally disagreed with
00:42:42.020
or else it was going to cost me my job. And so I stuck with my guns and found myself delightfully
00:42:47.260
unemployed. And I thought, wow, if this happened to me, it's probably going to happen to a lot of
00:42:51.000
other Americans who are going to have to decide between their job and their values. And I don't
00:42:55.120
think that's right. And so Red Balloon dot work and it's dot work, not dot com because dot com sent
00:43:01.160
it too much like communist to me. And we want to get back to work, not communism. So Red Balloon dot
00:43:06.960
work. Someone was listening to the show prior to you coming on. That's right. And so we are we're a
00:43:15.800
hybrid job board. We have now in 18 months, we have over 3000 businesses who have signed a pledge
00:43:22.220
that they believe in freedom. They believe in the Constitution. They will protect the freedom of
00:43:25.940
people coming to work for them. And we've had over a million job seekers who are eager for freedom
00:43:31.180
because when you're free at work, it is amazing the impact it has on every other aspect of your
00:43:37.040
life. And so early on, Donald Trump Jr. got involved with Red Balloon. Public Square is a big
00:43:43.800
partner of ours because we realized that we're in a moment in American history that if you are a
00:43:49.280
conservative and you get canceled from Facebook, you kind of shrug it off. But if you get canceled
00:43:53.380
from your job and your ability to feed your kids, pay your mortgage, that is a lever that will cause
00:43:59.840
you to at least be tempted to compromise some of your values. And we want to be able to give people
00:44:04.760
a landing place if they do lose their job because they stuck with their guns. And so that's what
00:44:09.600
Red Balloon dot work is. And it's been a really fun adventure. It's the only business I've ever run
00:44:14.020
where I get unsolicited thank you notes from perfect strangers who say, you know, you change the
00:44:18.440
trajectory of my family. You save my marriage because I now have a job where I can be free and I didn't
00:44:23.580
realize what an impact it would have. So anyway, that's Red Balloon. It's been really fun company to build.
00:44:28.340
Well, I think that's amazing, you know, and Public Square, it's obviously it's a place for to hang
00:44:34.360
your business or if you're going to look for businesses. But look, I'm not going to give away
00:44:38.940
anyone's personal information, but there are people that I know in my personal life. There are people
00:44:43.180
who are involved with this show that have told me that very same story or even not so much they lost
00:44:48.760
their job, but that or, you know, they were put in a position they didn't want to be in or just that
00:44:52.780
they were sick of being in that that part of the woke corporate world where every single day you're
00:45:00.420
forced to bite your tongue, you're forced to endure another woke training, telling you to put
00:45:07.240
your pronouns at the bottom of your emails, that kind of stuff that finally, I mean, I think what
00:45:11.720
you're doing is, you know, getting a you're filling a niche that's needed. And I don't know,
00:45:18.020
by the way, I got to ask is is red balloon? Is that a reference to the song? Is that a reference
00:45:22.340
to the, you know, basically, anti-communist songs that's ever been written? That's right. Actually,
00:45:30.540
it has lots of meaning. So there was also a family that escaped from East Germany on a hot air balloon.
00:45:37.160
And if you've ever been on a hot air balloon, it's a little bit terrifying and a lot bit fun,
00:45:40.860
kind of like looking for a job. And people are going to red states and red businesses and red
00:45:45.260
regions of blue state. So there's lots of meeting built. It's all there. It's like your work is
00:45:52.500
really good for you. So. So you're taking right. So you're taking that because that Nina, I think,
00:45:58.460
was the band right now. Luftballons. Right. And so it's it's that's the red balloons come across the
00:46:03.280
the the Berlin Wall. Right. And then so in your version, it's the balloon that takes you out of your
00:46:09.020
your blue state, your blue job and and, you know, potentially brings you to a red state.
00:46:13.320
That being said, though, I think a lot of these jobs, I mean, a lot of people are you seeing this
00:46:17.100
as well in the market? Because you are in the job market as well outside of politics. Are people
00:46:22.760
really moving back to the workplace or is this or is work from home really having the staying power
00:46:27.380
that I think a lot of workers are going for? No, that's a great question. A lot of businesses are
00:46:32.460
tired of work from home and we are seeing people move back. What we're seeing actually, which is really
00:46:37.680
interesting, is a lot of the red balloon companies are establishing what we call micro offices. So
00:46:41.860
they're saying, look, we have a critical mass of employees in Pulse, Oklahoma or Spokane, Washington,
00:46:47.280
some of these second level metros. And so let's try and get the the momentum of an office with a
00:46:53.240
very small group of people because we're not going to get everybody to move back to Dallas or Fort
00:46:58.920
Lauderdale or some of these bigger metros. And so that's kind of this middle ground that a lot of the
00:47:03.460
employers are starting to establish. And I'll tell you, the companies that are hiring,
00:47:08.940
a lot of them are finding that there's a ton of job seekers who are eager to relocate from places
00:47:13.880
like California and New York and Illinois because the job seekers on red balloon are realizing that
00:47:19.680
living there with your family anymore is simply not safe beyond the fact that your freedoms are
00:47:25.420
being curb stomped constantly, not only at the job, but at the city level. So we're seeing a lot of
00:47:31.720
workers who are saying, look, I'm a conservative. I don't like to move. We like to put down roots.
00:47:35.980
We like to stay places. But the time has come. It's time to leave Chicago. It's time to leave New
00:47:40.380
York and go somewhere where I can be free. And so help red balloons been helping a lot of people
00:47:44.380
facilitate that move. We we just had the author Jack Cashel on yesterday about his his fantastic
00:47:51.160
new book. And that's exactly what it's about. It's called untenable. And it's it's basically about
00:47:56.300
the death of our cities. And he tells his personal family story. I have some personal stories. I think
00:48:01.160
everybody knows someone or has experienced it themselves. Unfortunately, tell everybody where
00:48:05.380
can they go? How do they sign up for this service? I think it's fantastic. And I commend you for setting
00:48:10.360
this up. Yeah, thank you. Red balloon dot work. You can go there. You can sign up as a job seeker.
00:48:15.760
Everything's totally free. If you're looking for a job, you can fill out a profile. It's a self
00:48:20.200
sovereign profile. So unlike LinkedIn or something else, we're not going to sell your data. If you want
00:48:25.020
to have your profile visible to employers, you can share it. But it's a self sovereign profile because we
00:48:29.920
believe in privacy, in fact, and freedom. So for a job seeker, you can go there's ton of great
00:48:34.620
resources. We have an employee bill of rights that is a free resource that you can download and
00:48:39.560
understand what your rights are. So if you're stuck at a woke company, we can tell you what you're
00:48:43.800
allowed to do legally to push back against some of the craziness. If you're an employer, we have lots
00:48:49.520
and lots of job seekers who are eager to come work for your company. And you can either post jobs,
00:48:54.480
you can look at our profile database of people who are ready to jump, or we can actually come
00:49:00.360
alongside and help you with that hiring process. We do that for Moms for America and lots of other
00:49:04.680
folks. Got to run. Thank you so much for being on. Really appreciate it, folks. Play in your exit.
00:49:10.040
Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
