A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.080
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:51.220
I am officially incarcerated. I want to say this. I'm going to be there for 60 days.
00:00:57.680
And in those 60 days, I'm going to find a way to better myself. I'm going to find a way to come
00:01:03.360
out stronger. I'm going to come out wiser. I'm going to come out older. I'm going to come out
00:01:07.820
more focused. So for 60 days while I'm in there, I'm going to try to improve myself and become a
00:01:15.020
better person. And so I offer you this challenge for the 60 days that I'm away. The next time that
00:01:21.820
you see my face and hear my voice, I challenge you to become a better person.
00:01:27.340
A Border Patrol memo has gone out warning that terror groups like Hamas and Hezbollah could be using the
00:01:34.620
open border to enter the United States. There's a 7000 percent increase in suspects from the terror
00:01:40.600
watch list apprehended in the Biden administration versus the Trump administration.
00:01:45.220
I'm not talking about revenge. I want just I'm saying justice. So there has to be some
00:01:51.540
other place we go instead of just saying, let's have a ceasefire.
00:01:56.500
Democracy is messy sometimes, but it is our system. This conference that you see,
00:02:02.700
this House Republican majority is united. You're going to see a new form of government,
00:02:07.440
and we are going to move this quickly. This group here is ready to govern.
00:02:11.380
Between October 17th and the 24th, U.S. and coalition forces have been attacked at least
00:02:17.600
10 separate times in Iraq and three separate times in Syria via a mix of one-way attack drones and
00:02:24.420
rockets. Governor Newsom met with Chinese President Xi Jinping and other top officials to discuss
00:02:29.340
climate change. My purpose of the trip is to discuss the issue of low-carbon green growth,
00:02:35.160
to talk about strategies to share ideas and idealism around our transition and our efforts to decarbonize
00:02:43.880
our economy. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily live from
00:02:49.520
Washington, D.C. Jack Posobiec. Today is October 25th, 2023. Anno Domini. Owen Schroyer
00:02:56.380
has just been ordered into solitary confinement in FCI Oakdale 1 down Louisiana. He's being held
00:03:09.160
there, we're told, because of COVID screening protocols, which are still in place for some
00:03:14.700
reason. Owen Schroyer, inmate number 05937, will now be behind bars. He'll just sit there. I've got
00:03:27.280
the address up. If anyone wants to look at it, you want to send him something, this is how you do it.
00:03:33.560
So Owen is sent to federal prison, now solitary confinement, for free speech, for speaking out,
00:03:41.780
for going to the United States Capitol, speaking his mind, protesting, and participating in the
00:03:49.780
political process. Meanwhile, Turbo America on steroids. And if you want to read more about Turbo
00:04:01.220
America, go check out the Twitter account, Fisted Foucault, or nicolo.substack.com.
00:04:09.620
It's a theory he has about America attempting to extend its global hegemony by confronting Russia,
00:04:21.120
China, and essentially all other comers at the same time. It's exactly right. This is Mearsheimer's
00:04:28.740
warning, that America would morph into Turbo America, the GAE, as others call it, the globalist
00:04:37.700
American empire. There are no breaks. Go look at Tablet Mag. I posted up the screenshot just before
00:04:46.160
the show today. They're talking about strikes on Iran. Military strikes on Iran. Just go ahead. Ballistic
00:04:51.280
missiles on Tehran. Strike the heart of the snake. It's 2003 all over again. And if you speak out, if you
00:04:58.860
say, you know what, I don't think we should do this, I think that this could lead to repercussions.
00:05:04.820
What did I say last week? It's all inextricably linked. Connect the dots. All the attacks on US
00:05:11.160
bases, you think they're going anywhere? Why do you think the United States, and the Wall Street
00:05:16.040
Journal has this out, the United States just told Israel, please delay your ground invasion of Gaza
00:05:22.920
so that we can get more air defense assets around our bases throughout the entire Middle East.
00:05:29.320
You really think it's just Hamas that's gunning for us? You really think it's just Hamas that's got American
00:05:35.720
soldiers and American bases in their crosshairs? No, no. Everything that Israel does will be blamed on
00:05:43.540
America. And every American soldier overseas and potentially every American citizen overseas is going to be
00:05:52.700
targeted. Are you ready for that? Because that's the dirty little secret that they don't want getting
00:05:59.460
out into the public. Meanwhile, we're already in a proxy war with Russia vis-a-vis Ukraine.
00:06:07.360
Great job, Joe Biden. Great job, Turbo America. But if you speak out, if you say the words, or the number
00:06:14.260
really, 1776, like Owen Troyer, solitary confinement. This is your government now.
00:06:24.260

00:06:51.900
bam bam, like Human Events with Jack Posobiec. All right, Jack Posobiec back here live, Human Events
00:06:59.940
Daily, Washington, D.C. Today's episode sponsor is My Patriot Supply. So I'm going to go through this,
00:07:06.860
and then I'll give you guys an update on what's happening with the My Patriot Riot Truck giveaway.
00:07:12.200
I know a lot of people have been asking about this. A lot of people have been saying,

hey, Poso, you had us all sign up for this thing. We signed up. Where's the riot truck at? Give me
00:07:21.380
one second, I'll explain it to you. But first, the unthinkable is happening. No more surprises.

down, we went, myself, Tanya Tay, we went out to the facility all throughout Salt Lake City. We've got
00:07:54.840
some footage of that that we really need to air at some point. We'll probably air it. We did a whole tour
00:07:59.980
of the facility. So we'll air that when we do the announcement of the winner because it's incredible.
00:08:05.440

folks, is that it's not just about the food. Everybody knows My Patriot Supply for the Food.
00:08:57.460
They have so many other products on there for preparedness. Now, everyone's asking about the
00:09:03.040
giveaway. Let's see what we've got. So this goes into the sweepstakes. They're covered under Utah law.
00:09:10.600
And so under Utah law, there's certain requirements that they have to fulfill before they're able to
00:09:15.980
conduct the sweepstakes, before we're able to announce a winner. We've been in communication with
00:09:20.800
them. Human Events is going to be reaching out to My Patriot Supply. Once the winner has been
00:09:26.660
selected, we're going to do the big announcement. We're going to do the whole shebang. We will let
00:09:31.280
you know. That being said, like I said before, there's going to be a little bit of time lag as
00:09:39.760
they go through and dot the T's and cross the I's. It's closed for right now. You can go to mypatriotsupply.com.
00:09:44.940
And you can check out what they do have in the meantime, as we go through this entire thing.
00:09:51.300
Gavin Newsom, by the way, in the midst of all this, what's Gavin Newsom doing? Oh,
00:09:55.500
he makes a surprise visit to China and has an audience with who? The Red Emperor himself,
00:10:01.360
Xi Jinping. You know, it's almost like all of this is happening. I don't know, deliberately like,
00:10:07.860
like Gavin Newsom, the guy who's, by the way, he's definitely not running for president. There's
00:10:12.800
no chance whatsoever that Gavin Newsom is going to replace Joe Biden. That's a conspiracy theory.
00:10:19.780
And anybody who's running a television show or a podcast like Human Events Daily is definitely
00:10:25.940
spreading conspiracy theories and dangerous misinformation and disinformation that's
00:10:31.920
incredibly dangerous to democracy. If you hear someone saying something like that, you know, he's
00:10:38.260
only challenging other presidential contenders to debates, conducting foreign visits with our chief
00:10:45.620
adversaries and competitors. He's only going and giving full-throated speeches. And in this case,
00:10:53.360
it sounds like deals with some of these world leaders, you know, for fun. He's basically just
00:10:58.960
doing it for fun. You know, he thought it would be a nice trip. Go to Hong Kong, go to Guangdong,
00:11:04.460
Shenzhen, go to Beijing. He's not going to go up to Xinjiang. He's not going to talk about the
00:11:08.140
Uyghurs. He's not going to really going to mention any of that. He's not going to talk about
00:11:11.300
pollution. He's not going to do any of those things. But he is going to say, by the way,
00:11:16.580
that Xi Jinping and him had a great conversation about climate change. Yeah, I know that when
00:11:23.060
everyone thinks of China, the very first issue you really seem to think of is climate change and
00:11:29.180
how we can all work together. All right. Here's a dirty little secret. When Gavin Newsom says that
00:11:35.680
he's working with Xi Jinping on climate change, here's what that means. That means solar panel
00:11:42.000
mandates are going to be continuing throughout the state of California. That means electric vehicle
00:11:48.060
mandates are going to be continuing throughout the state of California. And by the way, that includes
00:11:52.220
businesses. So if your business operates a fleet of cars, if you have trucks, if you're operating a
00:11:59.380
truck in the state of California, so long haul trucks, and even if you have boats in your business,
00:12:04.500
we've heard this from, you know, even though the little Balboa Island, the beloved car ferry
00:12:11.180
apparently is being affected by these mandates as well. They might even have to go out of business
00:12:15.440
because of it. So what's he over there meeting with Xi Jinping about? Well, it's simple.
00:12:18.940
Back me. And these mandates, the EV mandates, the solar panel mandates, they'll go nationwide.
00:12:30.520
And remember, this is something that Biden is already pushing. You can see up in the Rust Belt,
00:12:34.420
we've seen polling already where the EV mandates have become a huge political football between Biden
00:12:40.700
and Trump. So we know that the Rust Belt has already been one of the most contentious and probably
00:12:45.020
will be the most contentious region of the country when it comes to the overall 2024 electorate,
00:12:49.880
the overall vote. This is why I and so many others have really been ringing the bell about RFK and
00:12:56.740
RFK's ability to really just scumbag Donald Trump and steal the race for Biden in those areas. Even if
00:13:04.220
it's only a couple of thousand votes, 10,000 votes here, 20,000 votes there, that is enough to swing one of
00:13:09.780
these states to Biden because that's how close it is. But electronic vehicles, this is something where
00:13:15.080
obviously RFK, we know, has gone in big on climate change. So the real question is going to be,
00:13:21.840
will this wedge issue be enough to come in between RFK, Trump, Biden, and whether or not Newsom gets
00:13:30.060
into this thing, which of course he's totally not doing. He's just conducting all these meetings.
00:13:33.720
Again, he's doing it for fun. He said, you know, and I know it's Halloween's coming up and all, but I
00:13:38.140
wanted to get away from the kids and go have some fun with my buddies over there in the People's
00:13:43.040
Republic. I love him so much. You know, there's all those guys over there and the people, you know,
00:13:48.280
Xi Jinping, he's such a good buddy. You know, so what we're also seeing, by the way, this is like when
00:13:55.780
Kim Jong-il knew he was about to pass away. So this is about, I want to say about 2011. Kim Jong-il,
00:14:02.360
who famously, infamously, and just like his son and father, did not take many foreign trips outside
00:14:08.280
of what they call the Hermit Kingdom, the DPRK, the North Korea. But he did make a train ride all
00:14:16.780
the way out to Beijing. And he brought Kim Jong-un with him to meet the CCP chairman. Now,
00:14:23.540
this was Hu Jintao. This was prior to Xi Jinping taking over in Beijing. But let me, I digress.
00:14:28.680
It's about, say, it would have been one year before Xi Jinping took over the CCP. Why does
00:14:33.780
this matter? Because that's the vassal going to the emperor to get approval for their successor.
00:14:41.200
Do you approve of my successor? Do I attain your approval? In that case, of course, Hu Jintao said
00:14:50.320
yes. Then we saw Kim Jong-il pass away. Kim Jong-un takes power. The rest is history. What are we
00:14:57.700
seeing now? Gavin Newsom. And he kept this a secret, folks. He kept this a secret for a reason.
00:15:04.260
He didn't want us to know that he was going to be meeting with Xi Jinping. But then once he did,
00:15:10.420
he wanted the world to know. Why did he keep a secret? It's not because he was ashamed of it. No,
00:15:14.220
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He did this because he wanted the shock value. He wanted the surprise.
00:15:19.940
This guy knows how to work the media. I keep telling people this. Gavin Newsom's skill set
00:15:25.880
when it comes to persuasion, when it comes to media, when it comes to pacing and leading,
00:15:29.920
it's off the charts. It's just off the charts. I don't really know any, outside of Trump,
00:15:34.640
I don't see any Republican who even understands this. You can see, by the way, in that video,
00:15:38.220
look at the body language with Gavin and Xi Jinping. Hair gel Hitler there is sitting doing,
00:15:44.500
he's doing that alpha, like the touching thing. Like, I'm going to touch your, okay,
00:15:47.820
I'm going to touch your elbow. All right. Then he touches his back. Then he sort of gestures over.
00:15:52.380
I love, by the way, sometimes I'll go to DC and people will try that crap on me. Like,
00:15:55.600
hey, buddy, how's it going, Poso? How you doing, man? And they're like,
00:15:58.700
like, tap me on the back. All right, buddy. Hey, having a great time. We're having a great time.
00:16:02.840
And I'm just like, you know, that that doesn't actually work on me. Like, I know what you're doing.
00:16:07.500
In fact, you're, you're being a little, being, going a little overboard with it. You can kind
00:16:11.040
of see what Xi Jinping as well, that he's not, if you ever spent any time in China, you know,
00:16:17.220
you'd know that Chinese officials aren't exactly the most touchy feely kind of crowd. So the kind of,
00:16:22.600
the kind of Bay Area nonsense that goes on in San Francisco and flies there isn't exactly the same
00:16:28.560
that flies at Zhongnanhai in Beijing or in the Forbidden City. So obviously this doesn't work on
00:16:35.220
Xi Jinping, but at the same point, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because what Xi Jinping
00:16:39.580
understands is power. What he understands is leverage. Okay. And look, you know, people are
00:16:46.600
going to say, oh, Poso, you're like the most anti-China, you're the hawk, whatever. Okay.
00:16:49.720
You know what though? Xi Jinping makes moves in furtherance of his country. He doesn't make excuses.
00:16:57.080
He doesn't go into moralizing. He's not woke. He says, I'm going to do what's right for China and for
00:17:02.840
the Chinese people. And I don't care what you think. I don't care because the economic rise of
00:17:10.420
China, the military rise of China, this is what he's focused on. You see this in many other countries.
00:17:17.600
And all I'm saying is, wouldn't it be so nice if we had leaders that weren't vassals? Wouldn't it be
00:17:23.600
nice if we had leaders that say they put the American people first and the needs of the American
00:17:30.380
people first ahead of the needs of other countries, ahead of the needs of foreigners and people that
00:17:36.380
are thousands of miles away? All I want, all I want is a leader in this country who talks about
00:17:45.200
the American people the same way they now talk about foreigners. Wouldn't that be nice? Isn't it sad
00:17:53.020
that we have to ask for that? Isn't it sad that we have to sit here and say, wouldn't it, you don't
00:17:58.100
even have these conversations? It'd be nice if we had a president that was pro America. Look,
00:18:02.240
when I see these videos of politicians, just groveling, slobbering to China, you can watch
00:18:07.860
and Gavin Newsom's got a bunch of videos up there slobbering over China, saying how much he loves
00:18:13.400
them, how wonderful they are. Wouldn't it be nice to have a president that wasn't owned? Wouldn't it be
00:18:19.400
nice to have a president that actually put our values first, put our people first, put our interests
00:18:27.640
first? I don't know if anyone knows any presidents like that. You can think of somebody who might
00:18:34.160
fit the bill, but no, I don't know. I mean, he's just too orange.
00:18:37.640
All right, folks, we're back. Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C. I want to tell you about today's

promo code POSO. I want to bring on now Tony Schaefer. Tony, we're talking about this theory
00:20:04.960
of turbo America. That's how, that's how Nicola Soldo describes this, this idea where it's not just
00:20:14.400
Mearsheimer's warning of us running into multiple world conflicts at the same time. It's that the United
00:20:20.040
States should attempt to expand and extend its military and economic hegemony across the globe
00:20:28.320
and essentially tell every country how they should behave and how they should act in every situation.
00:20:34.760
Tony, do you think the United States military is prepared for something like that? When right now,
00:20:40.160
we are forced, by the way, at the same time, the Wall Street Journal is, and I said this last week,
00:20:45.360
and here we are, the Wall Street Journal is saying that every single US base in the Middle East right
00:20:50.280
now is being threatened by attack and Israel has to delay their ground offensive because they're
00:20:55.140
preparing for massive strikes on all of our bases at the same time. Gee, it sounds like it might be a
00:21:00.660
little bit more than just Hamas that's going to respond. So you're familiar with the term
00:21:06.000
Crossing the Rubicon, correct? Yeah, I've heard it once or twice, Tony.
00:21:14.280
So those who study warfare recognize that Crossing the Rubicon was created when Germans,
00:21:23.320
early Germans, convinced the Romans to overextend their ability, their military ability, and slaughter
00:21:29.540
them. I see a 21st century version of that now ongoing, and we have people stupid enough on our side
00:21:35.180
not to recognize what's going on. That theory you put forth, you say that, oh yeah, we should be
00:21:40.400
involved. The adversaries know that, and it's like, yeah, go ahead, do that. Go ahead. We'll help you do
00:21:46.760
that. And it's a trap. It's not something we should be engaged in. We should be very careful on how we do
00:21:55.320
this. I think in many instances, we'd be better off making friends with some of the countries we
00:22:01.900
currently consider adversaries. There's other countries who are pretending to be our friends
00:22:05.840
who are out to stab us in the back. And we have an administration who is tone deaf to the different
00:22:14.120
elements of the world and how it works. Their basic position is, we don't want to lose. Well,
00:22:21.300
by being in a position they don't want to lose, that means they don't want to win either. And that's why
00:22:24.840
you see this bifurcation of policy, Jack, where on one hand, you have U.S. Marine Corps generals
00:22:31.340
advising the Israelis on how to conduct a ground offensive against Hamas in the Gaza. At the same
00:22:40.320
time, you've got Joe Biden behind the scenes funding Hamas, making our job more difficult,
00:22:46.700
and working essentially in ways that would go against the Israelis by forcing, encouraging the
00:22:59.160
world to encourage the Israelis to have a pause, to do a ceasefire. So that very example shows the
00:23:07.620
Biden administration doesn't know what it's doing. And yeah, I think they're trying to gain influence
00:23:11.920
globally for purposes of influence, but not understanding that our enemies see that and
00:23:16.580
see that they're going to use that to their advantage eventually.
00:23:21.380
Well, right, because no empire ever felt any repercussions from overextension in the past.
00:23:26.000
There's no historical parallels in any epoch of human history that we could draw here. But Tony,
00:23:33.960
here's another thing, is that it's almost like we're starting our next war before we finished our
00:23:39.180
first one, excuse me, finished our last one. Because in, you know, I saw this tweet earlier
00:23:45.480
today from a guy who is watching the Ukraine war. He does ukrainedailyupdate.com, Andrew Perpetua,
00:23:53.880
and he wrote, this morning, it's very frustrating watching videos of Russians advancing on the
00:23:59.280
battlefield only because Ukraine lacks the ammunition to stop the assault. If Ukraine had 15 to 20,000
00:24:06.360
shells per day, instead of just three, the Russian assaults would have a zero percent chance of
00:24:10.940
success. I mean, Tony, you know, do artillery duels work when only one side has ammo?
00:24:19.660
Yeah, no, it didn't work like that. So I see a lot of armchair quarterbacks making all sorts of
00:24:25.300
proclamations of just this or that or this, that and the other. And it's just amusing. I find it very
00:24:31.060
amusing but dangerous because people in policy positions with authority actually may listen to
00:24:37.820
these knuckleheads and make decisions based on whimsical concepts of folly rather than hard facts
00:24:44.780
based on observable events. And this is where we're at. We have far too many people like Jake
00:24:51.120
Sullivan. Jake Sullivan probably couldn't coach a high school debating team. He should not be the guy
00:24:57.740
who essentially is the brainstem between the Biden administration, the White House, and all elements
00:25:03.500
of the federal government to include the Pentagon. And I'm sorry, I'm just going to say it. Lloyd
00:25:08.720
Austin's not the right man for the job. I know General Austin. He was a good enough brigadier general,
00:25:13.840
but he's been out of his element since he made his second star and he should not be secretary of
00:25:18.240
defense. He has no ability to put together a strategy that's going to actually get us through this time
00:25:24.420
of great peril because he's not smart enough to understand the conversation you and I are having
00:25:29.500
right now. And it's just it's not because of any skin color issues just because he's not he's not
00:25:34.420
a strategist. It's not something that is net comes natural to him. And I think when you add that to the
00:25:40.200
other politicians in uniform serving in DOD, along with this this this detachment of the Biden White House
00:25:47.420
from the reality of which they face, it the miscalculations, which I think are inevitable,
00:25:53.520
will likely result in an extension, an expansion of the conflict and out of Gaza into the Middle East.
00:26:01.380
No, Tony, I think that's exactly right. And again, you know, they say this all the time.
00:26:06.520
You know, amateurs talk strategy. Professionals talk logistics. OK, this is several times.
00:26:12.740
Yes. People are already saying, what about a ground invasion of Iran from where from the Gulf?
00:26:19.900
Yeah. Do people realize how big Iran is? Do they understand that you have like the Rocky Mountains
00:26:24.740
basically in that country between Kuwait and Tehran? You've got so much, you know, OK, we'll roll the
00:26:31.440
tanks in from Kuwait. Oh, really? Across these giant mountains that you're going to have to cross.
00:26:36.280
This is why the Persian Empire was so hard to conquer in the first place. Alexander figured it out.
00:26:41.260
But, you know, this, you know, no one's really done so since I guess the Ottomans, you know. So
00:26:47.100
again, at least in the modern era. Point being is this is a very, very, very rough part of the world
00:26:53.720
and also something where so walk me through it. We're going to have a ground invasion of of Iran
00:26:58.700
at the same time that we've got that we've got boots on the ground or we're supporting boots on
00:27:02.540
the ground in Ukraine, whether it's U.S. forces or U.S. proxy forces. I'm still not really sure where the
00:27:07.800
proxy force there was going to be coming from in the Middle East to begin with, because it seems
00:27:11.980
to me like the Arab nations don't want that fight right now. They're not interested. No. When I look
00:27:15.740
at when I look at the Saudis and I look at the Qataris, they want to make money. They're looking
00:27:21.300
at those gas and oil flows up to the EU because they had to cancel all the Russian contracts.
00:27:25.720
They're like, hey, let's backfill, you know, backfill all that stuff. Let's work with Azerbaijan.
00:27:29.840
We'll put the pipelines through there. Sorry, Armenians. You know, sorry about all that.
00:27:33.460
But and then you got Erdogan popping off today at this as well, saying Hamas isn't a terrorist
00:27:37.940
organization. Look, Tony, I think these guys get the score. Why is it that the people in
00:27:42.860
Washington can't seem to figure this out? Because when you are a carpenter and you have
00:27:49.480
a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And that's what we have right now. We have a bunch
00:27:53.880
of people who don't understand the fabric of what you just walked through. And let me try
00:28:00.000
to clarify this and expand the thought for the audience. One of the things that was most
00:28:07.200
important to the success of World War Two was even Roosevelt, as much as I think he had flaws,
00:28:12.760
did understand strategic thinking and achieving objectives. Basically, there was very clear,
00:28:19.480
defined objectives. Reagan, same thing. Very clear, defined objective. Very simple. They lose,
00:28:27.200
we win. Well, it sounds simplistic and it's not. And I think this is where we have a bunch
00:28:33.680
of folks who don't want to win. They don't really want to do anything. They have no objectives,
00:28:37.400
but they want to dominate, to your point, the way they look at it. We can do all these things.
00:28:42.720
Tony Zinni, General Zinni, one of my friends and mentors, told me a story one time about how he got
00:28:47.780
called into President Clinton. He had about, I think, as I recall, about seven times he and Clinton
00:28:53.800
would get into it. He would be called up and Clinton would call him into the White House.
00:28:57.700
This is back in the 90s. And President Clinton would say, General Zinni, can you do this?
00:29:03.960
And Zinni would say, yeah, but then what? What are you going to do after that? What's the political
00:29:08.800
objectives you have to assign to this? Because I can, you know, you can do a lot of things militarily,
00:29:13.720
but it's not necessarily the military that can settle the peace. And that's what I worry about.
00:29:18.600
And that's where these other folks don't understand. You got to eventually talk to people
00:29:21.960
and you have to have a rational conversation where people come together and establish a path
00:29:26.320
to both interoperability regarding social communications, as well as commerce. And that's
00:29:31.860
the piece that's lacking in all the different conversations that are ongoing right now in
00:29:35.860
Washington. Tony, always a voice of reason here in this world. We need that. Where can people go to
00:29:43.640
follow you to get more of your information? What are your coordinates?
00:29:45.980
Yeah, so LondonCenter.org, ProjectSentinel.com. And obviously, Twitter is always a good place to
00:29:54.060
interact and check everybody out. So thanks for having me, Jack. It's always great to have a
00:29:58.820
The great Lieutenant Colonel Tony Schaefer. Look, he'll tell it to you, folks. He's been there.
00:30:03.300
He's seen this. He's done it. He's been on the ground. We can operate in some of these austere
00:30:08.600
environments. We can operate in many environments. But you know what we can't do? All of them at the
00:30:13.700
exact same time. That's what these people are trying to do. They want the United States to
00:30:19.280
bite off more than it can chew. And what I've been trying very patiently and very carefully to explain
00:30:24.340
that it is by design. They are baiting these people because they understand the theorem.
00:30:34.060
Turbo America. They understand, our adversaries understand that that is the mentality in Washington,
00:30:39.480
D.C. It's the mentality in Brussels. Turbo America. America must dominate. America will always dominate.
00:30:45.920
Well, guess what? That ain't the way history works. Empires don't always rise and expand. They fall.
00:30:52.500
They contract. They collapse. How many governments have you seen collapse in just the past 24 months?
00:30:59.200
You really think that can't happen here at home? Kirk Cameron returns to Human Events Daily next.
00:31:04.660
Buzzing in my ear about the boring people at your office. I'm trying to listen to the new
00:31:16.820
All right, folks. Very excited to have back on. Kirk Cameron rejoins Human Events Daily because
00:31:22.980
he's got a new book out from Brave Books. And I got to say, spoiler alert, we got the book last night.
00:31:29.480
We got it at home. Kirk, the minute that book came in the same way that my son, my five-year-old Jack Jack gets
00:31:35.900
when he sees a Brave Books come in, he says, Daddy, I want to open that right now.
00:31:40.720
But then the very first thing he does after he opens it is he says, I said, OK, do you want to read the book?
00:31:45.560
This one looks good. He said, no. He said, I want to get the sticker out of the back.
00:31:48.980
And the sticker's got to go on the map. And he loves putting the stickers on the map.
00:31:52.780
So every book comes with one of these stickers and it fits in and it's sort of the wider, you know,
00:31:57.700
I guess they call it a cinematic universe these days. But we sat down, we read the book last night.
00:32:03.240
He absolutely loved us. So, Kirk, explain the book to us, The Fox the Fair, The Invention Scare.
00:32:10.500
You know, it's a book about, you know, essentially a science fair.
00:32:13.660
But what's the real meaning of the book and why did you decide to write it?
00:32:20.220
In fact, when I read the book, when it finally got published, it had a surprise effect on me that caused me to say,
00:32:27.440
I got to do a better job loving my enemies and extend an olive branch to people who hate me.
00:32:32.700
When I look at what's going on, you just had the kernel on. We're looking at the world at war.
00:32:37.440
I mean, Ukraine, Russia's on fire. The Middle East is on fire. American politics is on fire.
00:32:42.460
And our kids are watching. And what we do is going to inform them on how to deal with people with whom we disagree.
00:32:49.120
Do we just have a cutthroat dog eat dog strategy or do we have something better that we can give them so that they don't have to deal with, you know, world on fire as their future?
00:33:03.240
I was in Washington, D.C. years ago and saw an older couple get up at a Restore America rally and explain how their son was violently gunned down and murdered by a gang member.
00:33:13.840
And it was their faith in God and his ability to bring good out of evil that kept them going.
00:33:19.680
Then they introduced a man who came up and said that as a young man, he was in a gang, committed a violent crime, thrown in prison.
00:33:28.280
And while he was there, he was visited by the older couple that had just introduced him, found out they were the parents of the young man he had murdered.
00:33:34.720
And they came to tell him about God's love and that they did not hate him, that they were praying for him.
00:33:43.520
And when he got out of prison, they legally adopted him as their son and raised him as their own boy, gave him the same last name.
00:33:50.560
And that young guy said that it was because of their ability to love their enemies.
00:33:54.960
That it changed him and gave him a brand new life.
00:33:59.300
That's the message of this book, The Fox, the Fair and the Invention Scare.
00:34:04.360
It's to treat our enemies and those with whom we disagree in a way that's not natural.
00:34:16.260
Like Jesus said, he said, you've heard it said, love your neighbor, hate your enemy.
00:34:20.320
I say, love your enemies and do good to those who hate you and you will perfect the art of love, just like your father in heaven is perfect.
00:34:28.500
So that's the lesson that I believe this book has the potential to teach our children so that they can have a strong foundation to build a future.
00:34:38.740
And so in the book, and I'll basically, I'm not going to give it away for everybody, but it's about, you know, it's kind of a Hatfields and McCoy situation, you know, on a very, very smaller level.
00:34:47.060
You know, again, it's set up for kids, but it's two families that have been just at each other's necks for years and nobody can even remember who started the whole thing.
00:34:55.960
Yeah, well, you did this to my brother and he did that to my sister and they're just going back and forth.
00:35:01.380
But then eventually there comes to be a point where one of them can help another one.
00:35:07.600
And it's on an individual sort of a one-on-one level and they use the, you know, the vehicle of this science fair as a way through it.
00:35:15.840
He said, well, you know what, let me help you with that because I think if you screwed this part, then it would, you know, because you're, they're just trying to perform science basically there, perform a, you know, a shared task.
00:35:24.040
And, and people are walking around saying, why would you, why would you do that?
00:35:31.800
And, and, and I think that even as we look right now, look, we see protests, we see hatred in the streets.
00:35:39.880
We see hatred of people based on the color of their skin from one side to another side, to the other side.
00:35:46.920
I hate you because of what your answers did, sisters did.
00:35:53.920
And then of course, what I love, you know, is when I get caught up in the middle, I say, well, whose side are you on?
00:35:58.360
Poso, are you going to, you're just going to take their side?
00:36:03.680
You know, you know, I'm not trying to play that game, right?
00:36:06.360
You know, bad things are bad things, but we got to find a way to break that cycle eventually.
00:36:12.380
And I'm not saying, by the way, and this isn't a pacifist kind of thing.
00:36:15.720
You know, wars sometimes, you know, are done out of self-defense.
00:36:22.000
What we're talking about is the cycle of hatred.
00:36:25.100
Kirk, why is it so important to have a book preaching that message at this time?
00:36:29.940
Well, just like you said, I think you laid it out.
00:36:34.660
We have generations of people hating each other and they don't even know why they hate each other.
00:36:37.960
They're just listening and parroting narratives that have come down to them from other people.
00:36:44.980
You know, even in the scripture, as a Christian, I take seriously the injunction to fight the good fight.
00:36:51.060
We've got to fight for truth and good ideas because bad ideas result in misery and tyranny and bondage.
00:36:58.760
So there's a difference between, I'm sorry, let's say it this way.
00:37:03.260
We must continue to fight to tear down wrong ideologies like communism and socialism and things that terrorize people, while at the same time finding a way to have compassion on people trapped in those false systems.
00:37:20.060
I think, where would I be if God torched all of us?
00:37:31.080
But where would you and I be if others in our lives who we have offended just torched their enemies?
00:37:39.560
The fact that God made me an enemy because of my pride and my rebellion and my sin, his friend was effectively destroying me as an enemy and making me his son.
00:37:53.100
That's the beauty of forgiveness and loving your enemies.
00:37:58.740
And that's where I want our kids to go, not for the bombs and the rockets.
00:38:05.740
And look, you know, and people will say, you know, I'll preemptively, you know, respond to the Media Matters piece on this or whatever and say, you know, we're not talking about like terrorist organizations and this kind of thing.
00:38:21.580
They need to be put down behind bars, all the rest of it.
00:38:24.160
What we're saying is that once you break free, we're talking about this mindset, because there was someone there was a video I saw going around of this British journalist.
00:38:35.000
And well, I guess she was in the UK, but she was she was Arab of Arab descent and she was working for an Iranian service.
00:38:43.200
And she posted the selfie video cheering and celebrating the Hamas attacks.
00:38:48.620
This finally we have struck back against the Zionist entity.
00:38:59.200
And I'm looking at the video going, well, no, this is just going to make people respond even worse.
00:39:05.440
This is going to make people feed into all of the things that you don't want.
00:39:10.440
And that's and by the way, if you're upset about and there are and I'm just going to say it, there are Christians that have been killed in some of these bombings.
00:39:17.980
And you're going to say, why aren't you sympathetic for that?
00:39:20.240
And it's again, because we've we are obviously we're going to call it out when it happens.
00:39:24.420
But you have perpetuated this cycle of us versus them, oppressor versus oppressed, whereby in anything that one side does to the other is therefore justified because, oh, we got to win the fight because we got to win.
00:39:40.980
And eventually, if you embrace that mentality, you will perform atrocity upon atrocity upon atrocity because you'll say, oh, it doesn't matter.
00:39:52.300
And the real sick thing about this is that there are those I believe, my view is there's those who are sitting back profiting off of these kinds of things.
00:40:05.420
And it's a reason to enact more security measures for our safety and to get more money, to do more things, to create more totality regimes on both sides.
00:40:17.500
And that's why we've got to get back to first principles.
00:40:23.520
It's the result of a way of life and a way of thinking.
00:40:28.080
That's why I appreciate Brave Books and all of those out there who are supporting you and Brave Books.
00:40:46.440
This one, it might be a little better than the – I don't know if it's better, but I like the – I don't know.
00:40:51.740
I got to say, man, I don't know if it's better than the first one or not.
00:40:58.360
It looks like it's about a science fair, but it's all about actually feuds, breaking the cycle of hatred, breaking the cycle of feuds.
00:41:07.160
And if you're there and you're interested, I also have a book up about the dangers of the lies of communism.
00:41:14.800
Who would write an anti-communism children's book, you say?
00:41:30.120
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:41:35.240
So I got past an interesting thread on X earlier today.
00:41:41.780
You can't find it on the original account right now because it was made private.
00:41:50.360
But don't worry, folks, because this is Human Events Daily.
00:42:04.460
For anyone that needs someone to say this point blank to them, no, wanting diversity in your art slash media consumption does not mean having to make space for white, male, heterosexual, or conservative voices.
00:42:35.720
But let's focus on the context of art and media.
00:42:38.940
Say someone goes, I really think we need to be thinking about diversity when putting together the writers for this TV show.
00:42:46.120
It's easy to reach the intuitive answers, which in case is something like, we want a variety of viewpoints, perspectives, lived experiences, and backgrounds of the writers we're hiring.
00:43:02.320
But the intuitive answer here is a little less than ideal, leaves you open to two of the right's favorite bad faith arguments.
00:43:09.640
Namely, conservative ideologues are a viewpoint, and therefore these writers need someone representing them in the writer's room, and that writer should represent that ideology.
00:43:19.220
Replace conservative with white, homosexual, white, heterosexual, cis, etc., and adjust the numbers accordingly.
00:43:26.240
Both of these arguments make a kind of sense, if you go by the intuitive definition of diversity.
00:43:35.460
He goes on to conclude that, guess what, sports fans?
00:43:38.080
In the Western world, that overrepresented group is the white, heterosexual, cis male viewpoint.
00:43:43.020
And when we speak of diversity, it's not about creating a perfect balance.
00:43:47.640
It's about correcting a long, entrenched imbalance.
00:43:54.280
You see why it's important to know what we're all talking about?
00:43:57.600
It's not making sure everyone has a seat at the table.
00:44:01.200
It's about making sure people who haven't had a seat at the table get to have one.
00:44:07.780
And the bullies on the right will read that and go, well, that's not fair.
00:44:20.180
Something has happened in like, I don't know, the last five to 10 months that has just made these people go completely, completely mask off.
00:44:32.780
You know, all those times where we said, you know, they keep talking about conspiracy or they keep talking about diversity.
00:44:44.060
Diversity, inclusion, diversity, inclusion, diversity, inclusion.
00:44:47.000
Really, because it seems like all of the diversity inclusion only goes in one direction.
00:44:51.260
And it seems like it goes away from another direction.
00:44:54.520
Even when, and at the end of the day, you know, the products that Hollywood's turning out in the name of this are, they're not good.
00:45:04.620
You've got women in charge of everything, not because they are the best person for the job, but because we need to have women in charge.
00:45:11.700
You're putting diverse actors and writers and directors in charge of everything, again, not because they're the best person for the job, but because they are the right person of color.
00:45:25.120
They're the right ethnic or gendered quotient or something.
00:45:36.260
They want to diminish, right, diminish certain people from being there.
00:45:42.820
And they want more people to be there that they would like to have.
00:45:49.880
They don't care whether, you know, go look at any Star Wars movie if you want to see that.
00:45:57.120
They don't care about any of those things anymore.
00:45:59.320
And then because of the ESG system, guess what?
00:46:01.520
The ESG system showed that you could still get money from your capital investments even if your stocks were going down.
00:46:11.820
So people were looking at Netflix all the time and saying, oh, you know, why is Netflix, you know, casting all this stuff?
00:46:20.820
But they're not actually, they're not actually putting it on air.
00:46:27.800
It's very simple because they're still getting money off of it.
00:46:32.360
In fact, in some cases, they're profiting from it.
00:46:37.000
So boys and girls, when they go full mask off, when they say the quiet part out loud, when they admit what they are doing.
00:46:50.000
This guy tried, by the way, I, he wrote this whole thread.
00:46:55.020
Then he made his entire thread and entire Twitter account private because he didn't want you to know what he said.
00:47:07.580
The greatest threat to the communist is exposure.
00:47:11.100
Their greatest threat is for you to actually understand who they are, what they are doing.
00:47:22.200
And when they admit it, when they come out in their words, their own words, which we have preserved here at Human Events Daily,
00:47:30.880
our crack team made sure to go in and screenshot every single word that he wrote before we said anything, every single word.
00:47:45.140
We knew that he would say we were making it up, that we were spreading conspiracy theories.
00:47:48.880
He would probably call us a white nationalist, call us racist, maybe even try to find a way to say anti-Semitic,
00:47:53.900
even though it's not even mentioned anywhere in this.
00:48:03.040
They've been doing it throughout the entire woke era.
00:48:05.520
They've been doing it from day one, whether it was Gamergate, whether it was the Trump election,
00:48:12.760
whether it was anything that we've seen, the rise of the SJWs.
00:48:22.340
They've been lying to you and gaslighting for all these years.
00:48:26.400
And this guy went a little bit off the reservation and decided to tell everybody the dirty little secret that they're all doing it on purpose.
00:48:44.040
Because he didn't think that I would find this.
00:48:46.800
And that everyone in his social circle in Hollywood, this is exactly how they all think.
00:49:10.540
We are going to be the trench that your army falls into and is utterly destroyed.
00:49:17.980
Because you will never stop us and we will never be silenced.
