This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:01:04.840
A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:01:11.460
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:01:15.920
There's been zero evidence, zero evidence, you can ask me about engagement and what the
00:01:20.700
president has done with his family in conversation, but there's no evidence, there's, wait, wait,
00:01:25.860
but there's no evidence, there is no evidence that the president has done wrongdoing, there's
00:01:30.860
none, absolutely none, none, and that is just a fact.
00:01:36.280
U.S. officials are warning agents to watch out for IEDs, improvised explosive devices, this
00:01:44.040
now, according to an internal memo obtained by Fox Business, says the Mexican military
00:01:51.080
Since the day President Biden came into office, look at this, everything is up more than about
00:01:56.740
The U.N. is warning that Gaza faces a, quote, public health disaster amid the collapse of
00:02:03.240
This, as clashes rage overnight across the Gaza Strip, with Israel's bombardment of southern
00:02:08.760
Gaza continuing despite the losses of civilian life and the uncertainty over the fate of the
00:02:15.600
A lead paragraph produced in Moscow by the Associated Press about President Vladimir Putin's question
00:02:22.540
and answer session today, quote, emboldened by battlefield gains and flagging Western support
00:02:29.200
for Ukraine, a relaxed and confident President Vladimir Putin said Thursday there would be
00:02:35.040
no peace until Russia achieved its goals, which he says remain unchanged after nearly two years
00:02:41.580
Just yesterday, the court agreed to hear an appeal brought by a man charged with obstructing
00:02:49.180
That is the very same proceeding Jack Smith charged Donald Trump with obstructing, the certification
00:02:56.540
And the Supreme Court's decision to weigh in here could impact Trump's own D.C. trial and
00:03:03.420
The satanic holiday display at the state capitol has been vandalized.
00:03:06.580
This is the shrine earlier this week before it was vandalized.
00:03:11.660
A Mississippi man has been charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief for the incident.
00:03:16.760
Governor Kim Reynolds has called for residents to pray for the state in response to the display.
00:03:23.260
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, live from Phoenix,
00:03:45.820
Because it's a few moments after we finished yesterday's broadcast.
00:03:52.160
And a cheer rose up from everyone here at America Fest, Phoenix, Arizona.
00:03:57.680
All the patriots that have slowly been coming in from all around the country and, in fact,
00:04:08.240
Because we heard that in the state of Iowa, America's heartland, the city of Des Moines,
00:04:15.980
a patriot Christian, a Christian warrior, rose up and said,
00:04:36.060
He is a veteran officer of the United States military.
00:04:51.840
That when an abomination was defiling America's heartland,
00:04:57.280
God sent an Irishman named Michael Cassidy to take care of business.
00:05:06.680
Remember all those, remember all those Christian moms in the 1980s?
00:05:12.800
And you said, oh, we don't have to worry about them, the Christian moms.
00:05:20.860
We are the sons of those Christian moms in the 1980s.
00:05:33.340
We are not interested in making peace with evil.
00:05:41.580
Strike it down when it is found within your midst.
00:05:49.080
For the Son of God was sent to destroy the works of Satan.
00:05:56.060
For the Son of God was sent to destroy the works of Satan.
00:06:16.920
And AmFest and everything that happens this weekend,
00:06:19.360
we're going to be live all weekend here in Phoenix.
00:06:21.160
We are a repudiation of that which came before.
00:06:25.720
The weakness will be exercised from this movement.
00:06:37.460
Go look at the people that are appearing at AmFest this weekend.
00:06:45.160
If you don't like it, you better get used to it.
00:06:47.580
Ladies and gentlemen, one of the best ways that you can support us here at Human Events
00:06:54.180
and the work that we do is subscribing to us on our Rumble channel.
00:07:00.200
You hit the notifications so you'll never miss a clip.
00:07:05.680
And we're putting them out every single day of the week.
00:07:29.640
Look, I've been doing a lot of travel this month.
00:07:31.520
I've been running around with the kids, trying to cram in as much family time,
00:07:35.020
Christmas stuff as we can while doing the show, while doing AmeriFest.
00:07:49.980
It's because I start my day with a hot America First cup of blackout coffee.
00:07:57.660
Blackout coffee is 100% committed to conservative values.
00:08:03.920
When I get my blackout coffee every single morning, I'm looking at this thing going,
00:08:07.840
I know I'm not buying something from people who hate me.
00:08:11.100
From the sourcing process of the beans, the roasting, customer support, shipping,
00:08:14.660
they embody true American values and accept no compromise on taste or quality.
00:08:19.520
And we've got for 2024 going in, we've got the different flavor pack.
00:08:23.180
We've got the subscription for the entire year.
00:08:25.660
So you can get yours for your family or give it as a gift.
00:08:35.760
Some great gift ideas for Christmas, the holidays while you're there.
00:08:48.880
Now, Mike has been, he's from the Article 3 Project.
00:08:51.420
Mike has been telling us over and over that these cases against Trump are completely not legit.
00:08:57.080
President Trump himself, when I was at the dinner with him in New York on Saturday night,
00:09:01.380
he said the reason that people don't believe these cases is because they understand they are Democrat cases.
00:09:08.020
Well, now it turns out, Mike, the Supreme Court will be getting a bite at the apple on the Trump cases.
00:09:13.960
Mike Davis, you've been saying this since day one.
00:09:22.720
So the Supreme Court is trying to decide whether they're going to take Jack Smith's January 6th case,
00:09:30.240
this unprecedented indictment by Biden Special Counsel Jack Smith against President Trump for the non-crime
00:09:36.840
of objecting to a presidential election, which is allowed by the Electoral Count Act of 1887.
00:09:42.720
Twisting arms politically is allowed by the First Amendment.
00:09:45.060
If this were a crime, Democrats would be in prison for objecting to Republican wins in 1968, 2000, 2004, and 2016.
00:09:52.940
We don't see Al Gore and John Kerry and Hillary Clinton in prison after they objected, right?
00:09:57.920
So what the Supreme Court is looking at deciding is what we've been saying all along,
00:10:02.960
which is what President Trump did on January 6th was either protected by the First Amendment,
00:10:08.360
if he's acting within his personal capacity, or if he's acting within his presidential capacity,
00:10:16.140
And presidential immunity means you can't charge a government official for what they're doing in their official capacity
00:10:22.880
and under Supreme Court precedent, the outer perimeter of their official capacity.
00:10:27.200
And Jack Smith has charged President Trump essentially for ordering his vice president not to certify the election.
00:10:33.860
Well, you can't do that in your personal capacity.
00:10:36.340
A private citizen Trump can't order the vice president to do anything.
00:10:41.240
He can only do that as the president of the United States.
00:10:43.920
And the president has a constitutional duty to take care that the laws are faithfully executed.
00:10:52.040
Jack Smith is trying to bypass the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals
00:10:55.860
because Jack Smith is trying to interfere in the 2024 election.
00:11:00.180
Jack Smith desperately wants President Trump sitting in a courtroom starting on March 4th, 2024,
00:11:09.980
and then have him in the D.C. courtroom with D.C. Obama Judge Tanya Shutkin
00:11:15.000
and railroading him and interfering with the presidential election before the election,
00:11:19.360
and then throw him in prison for the rest of his life after the election.
00:11:23.060
And I hope the Supreme Court understands that they cannot go along with this blatant Democrat lawfare
00:11:30.860
The Democrats waited 30 months to bring these bogus charges against President Trump.
00:11:35.860
They stacked these trials in March and March and May and August clearly to interfere with the election.
00:11:43.220
There's no reason that these trials cannot happen after the election,
00:11:47.500
other than Democrats are waging lawfare and election interference,
00:11:51.680
to take out Trump through the legal process because they know that President Trump is going to beat President Biden
00:12:03.760
Because if these things get pushed back, right?
00:12:06.260
And people understand that, and I said this on Charlie Kirk this morning in the previous hour,
00:12:10.720
but if people understand, it's not like a movie, right?
00:12:15.300
Most of what happens in one of these cases actually takes place before you reach the trial phase.
00:12:22.120
Your pretrial motions, your discovery, your witness lists over and over.
00:12:28.740
If all of that gets shifted to the right, as we would say in the military, so it gets postponed,
00:12:34.760
Now your trial date isn't even going to be until after the election, Trump wins.
00:12:38.680
All of this stuff could be declared moot because you can't do any of this to the President of the United States.
00:12:43.360
And it also, by the way, takes away the central argument of the never-Trumpers
00:12:47.540
who have been saying we need to move past Trump because of these cases.
00:12:51.700
The cases have now been moved past the election.
00:12:54.160
Well, assuming or basically reanalyzing and assessing that this Supreme Court,
00:12:59.820
because it is an originalist Supreme Court, really, by the way,
00:13:03.340
and thanks to your personal work, Mike Davis, of getting these originalist jurists and Trump picks up on the court.
00:13:13.820
Let's look at what the Democrats are trying to do here.
00:13:16.840
Let's take Trump out of the picture and just say the President of the United States.
00:13:20.120
They brought in four unprecedented indictments of a former president and the leading presidential candidate.
00:13:27.320
And they're trying to say what President Trump did on January 6th was criminal somehow.
00:13:32.240
The only way it would be criminal on January 6th is if Trump actually incited a riot on January 6th,
00:13:39.920
There's zero evidence of that or Jack Smith would have brought those charges, right?
00:13:46.300
And so what they're trying to say is that the president can face criminal prosecution
00:13:50.840
for ordering his vice president to do or do something.
00:13:55.560
That sets up a very bad precedent for future presidents and former presidents.
00:13:59.900
For example, President Obama ordered an extrajudicial drone strike
00:14:05.020
and murdered a 16-year-old American citizen abroad.
00:14:11.360
Just ordered a drone strike and killed an American.
00:14:13.220
He should have presidential immunity under longstanding understanding of the powers and
00:14:20.600
responsibilities and the protections of the president.
00:14:22.680
But if these Democrat prosecutors like Jack Smith and these Democrat judges like Tanya
00:14:30.960
Circuit or Democrat justices on the Supreme Court and a couple weak Republicans, if they
00:14:35.820
don't see that there's presidential immunity here, does that mean that the Trump 47 Justice
00:14:40.540
Department can charge President Obama for murdering the 16-year-old American citizen?
00:14:46.200
Do these Democrats really want to go down this path where you're destroying the presidency
00:14:51.560
and destroying our republic because they fear that they can't beat President Trump at the
00:14:57.540
So they just want to throw him in prison for the rest of his life, bankrupt him and disqualify
00:15:03.580
Now, Mike, before the break, you were telling me that Elise Stefanik is now weighing in a new
00:15:08.320
While we have a few more minutes with you, I wanted you to know if you could briefly break
00:15:13.160
Congressman Elise Stefanik from New York is an all-star.
00:15:17.420
She is the congresswoman who filed the judicial ethics complaint against Manhattan Judge Arthur
00:15:23.200
Ingeron for the bogus rulings up there, the obvious partisanship against Trump for the
00:15:27.980
civil fraud case against Trump for the non-fraud of paying back sophisticated Wall Street
00:15:32.540
banks in full, as agreed on time with interest, right?
00:15:35.900
And so now she's brought a new complaint against D.C. Judge Beryl Howell, who was the chief
00:15:41.060
judge of the D.C. District Court from 2016 to 2023.
00:15:45.360
Judge Beryl Howell is a Democrat operative in a robe, and she's the one who ran, supervised
00:15:53.700
She supervised Jack Smith's grand jury investigations of Trump from Mar-a-Lago on January 6th.
00:16:02.340
She's forced them to stay in jail, pre-trial detention.
00:16:07.560
She gave a highly inappropriate political speech a couple weeks ago where she essentially
00:16:13.000
said that re-electing President Trump will bring fascism to America.
00:16:18.100
She didn't say Trump by name, but it was very clear what she was talking about.
00:16:21.580
She was up there with Biden's Deputy Attorney General, Lisa Monaco, hugging and receiving
00:16:26.340
award and having a cheerleader session, a pom-pom session, where they were praising each other
00:16:31.320
and trashing Republicans, trashing Trump supporters, citing a book, an anti-Trump screed.
00:16:38.240
And so Elise Stefanik, to her great credit, filed an ethics complaint with the D.C. Circuit
00:16:44.040
Court of Appeals because we cannot let this lawfare continue by these Democrat prosecutors
00:16:49.940
and these Democrat judges and these Democrat hellholes like D.C., New York and Atlanta,
00:16:55.560
the American people, not these partisan activists, prosecutors and judges, get to decide the next
00:17:03.620
Now, so this is the fact that we actually can get some accountability for this is absolutely
00:17:11.020
And I do think, though, as you say, the ultimate backstop to this will be taking it to the Supreme
00:17:16.620
Court, this current Supreme Court, thanks to the Trump appointees.
00:17:25.940
And it's the first time we've actually had constitutionalists on the Supreme Court and
00:17:31.780
And we're going to show this country what the difference is between having activist judges
00:17:37.120
who legislate from the bench, who make law from the bench, and those who actually apply
00:17:42.900
the original framers intent, the text, history and tradition.
00:17:48.120
By the way, I love that test, Mike Davis, the text, history and tradition test that should
00:17:53.440
be applied to every single piece of every single statute that crosses the desk of the
00:18:06.640
Remember, Congress has speech or debate clause.
00:18:11.240
Why the hell doesn't the president of the United States have immunity?
00:18:14.200
If President Trump does not have immunity, these judges are being politicians in robes
00:18:21.000
It will come back to bite future and former presidents.
00:18:25.760
And I would say go to article3project.org, article3project.org.
00:18:31.260
I'm at article3project, at article3project.gettertwittertruth.
00:18:35.240
And my personal, when I'm not kicked off, is at MRDDMIA, MRDDMIA.
00:18:47.440
They want to turn us into a third world banana republic.
00:18:50.840
Well, we're going to be talking about the third world and talking about some of these
00:19:24.540
People over to, by the way, it's super exciting.
00:19:29.500
She's just, she's in the control room on it now.
00:19:35.540
You know, we're going to bring them on later in the weekend.
00:19:40.220
A lot of surprises I haven't even talked about yet.
00:19:41.860
But one of those is a guy that I met during the push for Sound of Freedom when Sound of
00:19:49.660
And I remember when Matt Faraci reached out to me from Gideon 300 and he said,
00:19:54.560
Jack, I'm working with the Sound of Freedom guys and working with Angel and all of it.
00:19:58.800
And we really need some help getting this movie going.
00:20:01.580
And we don't know if anyone's going to watch it.
00:20:05.980
And you said, we're not sure if anyone's going to watch Sound of Freedom.
00:20:08.260
We're not sure if anyone's going to want to see this film.
00:20:23.220
I remember that we're at the Museum of the Bible and you walked out of the theater and
00:20:31.080
Most people have said that most people would not accuse me of being a quiet person.
00:20:38.200
You know, it takes a lot to, my wife would tell me, she's like, he doesn't stop.
00:20:47.660
But when I saw this film and it just shook me to my core.
00:20:54.260
And going from there, and we should actually talk about that for a minute, going from that
00:20:57.940
moment before it had even been released publicly, because it was before the July 4th release
00:21:01.760
date, it's now going on, I pulled it this morning, $250 million.
00:21:10.160
Could you have ever believed that if I had told you going into it?
00:21:17.500
And I think my guess of well was maybe $70, $75.
00:21:25.420
Which, by the way, the Godzilla, the new Godzilla, which the Japanese one, Godzilla minus one,
00:21:37.260
Okay, I want the audience to know, if Jack likes a movie, you're pretty spot on.
00:21:57.380
And Tokyo is in, I'll give you the elevator pitch.
00:22:03.180
The military's destroyed, right, by the Americans.
00:22:20.860
So all the veterans of the war raise up and volunteer themselves.
00:22:26.260
They find like some old Navy ships and they go out to fight Godzilla themselves because
00:22:31.340
they're the last one, the last line to save their city.
00:22:45.480
And that in a way that sound of freedom, because it's a movie with heart, it's a movie that's
00:22:53.220
And that's, and by the way, it's a cool action movie too, right?
00:22:56.320
So, so the Godzilla movie, it's, it's great action.
00:22:58.940
If you like monster movies, the Godzilla is incredible.
00:23:02.760
He, you know, he couldn't, you know, understand that, you know, he doesn't speak Japanese either,
00:23:06.520
but, um, but he couldn't, it didn't matter because he's, you know, these guys are fighting
00:23:13.400
And, and the same way with sound of freedom though, it is a, it's a great action movie
00:23:17.900
on top of a movie with a lot of heart because you've got these, these action scenes.
00:23:22.780
It's a kind of a heist movie too, but, but to see it doing, doing $250 million to me,
00:23:28.440
I have to say, and I don't say this much, um, but I, I do believe that, that the success
00:23:36.720
of sound of freedom was due to the hand of God.
00:23:41.940
And, uh, in addition to the hand of God, which I think maybe these two things are not in,
00:23:46.920
are inextricably linked, the great, uh, uh, Maryland philosopher, Tim Poole, um, I asked
00:23:55.460
Who he's flying in, I think tomorrow, by the way.
00:23:59.360
And he said, he said that it's a verification that this Patriot economy is working a hundred
00:24:04.220
percent, essentially that you didn't, we didn't have any of the mainstream marketing channels
00:24:08.740
The mainstream, the mainstream was attacking us and attacking the film mainstream was
00:24:13.640
savaging, but then we turned that into marketing for the film, right?
00:24:18.400
Because it's, it's, and Joshua Lysak, shout out to Joshua Lysak.
00:24:22.240
You know, he says, he said bad reviews can be marketing, bad reviews from bad people are
00:24:34.360
And he said, yeah, so he said bad reviews by bad people are advertisements.
00:24:38.760
And that's exactly what happened with Sound of Freedom.
00:24:41.060
So every time they, it was, I mean, Rolling Stone ran an entire anti Sound of Freedom campaign
00:24:47.340
against this, which actually became the advertising vehicle for it.
00:24:56.600
I think, I think that the, the establishment, I'm going to call it the Hollywood establishment.
00:25:01.980
But I, that's the best word I can come up with.
00:25:04.680
But I think when you're, when you're putting entertainment into the hands of the people,
00:25:12.620
And then when you're putting entertainment in the hands of the people in the way that
00:25:16.100
Angel Studios does it, where the audience picked Sound of Freedom, there wasn't a bunch
00:25:22.800
And this is, they call it the committee of 500.
00:25:32.580
100,000 investors who, who, when I, I started a show called The Chosen a couple of years
00:25:41.580
And that, I, and there was a, there was a group of us that put that show together and
00:25:46.000
that was the test to see, could we make this model work?
00:25:54.280
It's, it's, it's, it's, it's basically, you're taking the power of crowdfunding plus,
00:25:58.960
And then there's, cause they, they attack the pay it forward model and they say, well,
00:26:02.860
you can't do pay it forward because that's front loading and that's, that's, that's
00:26:06.440
Look, people wouldn't be paying for it if they didn't want to see it.
00:26:10.540
They wouldn't, they wouldn't be doing the pay it forward if it wasn't successful.
00:26:14.600
The pay it forward is as if you are doing some kind of like larger or, um, you know,
00:26:22.220
How dare you incentivize other people to see the movie.
00:26:24.820
Cause every, every studio does incentivizing and marketing campaigns for their movies.
00:26:31.760
It's just that if you don't have those budgets, you got to be creative about it.
00:26:34.860
So you come up with pay it forward and you pay, you come up with crowdfunding.
00:26:38.140
And then, so the success of the, like, that doesn't mean that I'm sure that every pitch
00:26:42.540
that Angel gets doesn't get taken up or maybe even someone that starts paying forward
00:26:49.380
Of things that go through the guild that get picked, but that's because think about it.
00:26:53.700
I mean, Jack, when you go shopping, like you don't buy everything you see.
00:26:57.160
You're, if I'm only at my pillow.com, then you go, yeah, then you go crazy.
00:27:03.520
But I'm saying like, I took my son to get some shoes this morning.
00:27:09.400
You're going to pick the one that you really feel like this is great.
00:27:17.620
Cause Angel has done other stuff and, and the chosen obviously taken off and just, just,
00:27:21.580
We have a movie in theaters right now called The Shift, which is awesome.
00:27:27.700
It's like The Matrix meets, it's like The Matrix meets the, I guess, people say The Book of
00:27:34.460
I think it has themes from Job, but it's really interesting.
00:27:38.240
Well, so my brother, my brother has been talking about it.
00:27:50.360
He said it to him, and this was his, his opinion.
00:27:53.740
He said it was like, it was like The Book of Job in like a sci-fi, as a sci-fi horror
00:28:01.180
And what I like about it is that you don't know where, don't you get tired of the formulaic
00:28:05.760
movies where 10 minutes into it, you know how this is going to go.
00:28:13.160
The Shift, you start watching it and you're like, where is this going?
00:28:19.260
I want, I want you to, and then we, so we have that.
00:28:21.540
Because when you think of The Book of Job as, as just, as, as we know, the, the actual
00:28:24.960
biblical account of Job, it is a horror movie, right?
00:28:28.120
What happens to Job is some of the most horrific.
00:28:31.140
When I, when I read Job as, uh, you know, when I was younger, of course, it was, you know,
00:28:35.940
and you think like, oh, wow, you, you really look at the perseverance of Job and you look
00:28:40.140
Or, but then when I became a father and when I, when I, when I became a husband, and then,
00:28:46.560
and then I really, which also made me reflect on the story of Abraham and Isaac as well,
00:28:56.360
That if, you know, if God comes to me and says, you know, take out your firstborn son
00:28:59.680
or, or if God crushes your family, it's, I don't know if I could do it.
00:29:05.400
I don't think they thought they could do it either.
00:29:16.140
Um, and I will give a serious review as I give of all things.
00:29:19.100
And then in March, I hope I don't get misquoted in March, we're coming out with Cabrini.
00:29:31.760
And it's directed by the same director, Alejandro Monteverde as Sound of Freedom.
00:29:44.000
And when Mother Cabrini was, when she was canonized in 1947 and 1946 and, and every, every Catholic
00:29:50.700
growing up in, you know, you're speaking my language now.
00:29:52.860
So every Catholic growing up in the United States knows Mother Cabrini.
00:29:55.440
And I'm from Pennsylvania with Cabrini College, um, that they said at Soldier Field in Chicago
00:30:00.300
and she died in Chicago, when she ran all of her missions and all of her, and it was
00:30:03.600
all for the, the children, all for homeless children.
00:30:06.880
And, and she would go out into the streets and find these homeless, hungry children and
00:30:11.180
bring them all over the country and then expand it all over the world.
00:30:13.740
They said that when she was canonized, that they held a mass for her.
00:30:19.820
They had to rent out Soldier Field in Chicago, 120,000 people showed up.
00:30:30.600
That her canonization mass, because that's how beloved she, that Cabrini was.
00:30:33.840
Well, also that she did it through entrepreneurship.
00:30:40.320
She used the, the capitalist system, which, which was created in the Torah, by the way.
00:30:44.160
She used that system to, to, and that's, and let's just back up.
00:30:50.520
God wanted people to be able to generate wealth to take care of the poor, not government, but
00:31:03.040
And we need to start telling these stories again about these heroes because they've stolen
00:31:11.340
And they put up statues of Satan instead of the statues of the founding fathers.
00:31:16.100
We'll talk about, we're going to break right here real quick.
00:31:17.840
And that will be just back in one sec with Matt Faraci.
00:31:20.420
And we are changing culture one movie at a time.
00:31:39.820
We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys and these are
00:31:50.160
Jack Posobiec back here live, Phoenix, Arizona.
00:31:56.860
The fact that Sound of Freedom went and did $250 million worldwide.
00:32:05.660
They say, Posobiec, why do you tweet during your show?
00:32:14.620
You say what, what Angel Studios is doing is the fact that they've got these stories
00:32:18.400
So it's a modern, it's a modern story of liberation, you know, but then we're all,
00:32:22.660
so we're, we're propping up the modern heroes, the stories that don't get told, you know,
00:32:26.160
then obviously with the chosen, you know, it's, it's, it's the Bible, it's the gospel.
00:32:30.080
Then with Mother Cabrini taking these, these figures who are known to the Catholic community
00:32:37.580
And if you talk to the Italian Americans by a producer, Faz, when I told producer Faz that
00:32:42.180
you guys were making a Mother Cabrini movie, I believe the, the proper term is he plotsed
00:32:47.080
because he went, I know, I know, I know, I'm from Philly, what can I say, that he went
00:32:54.380
absolutely nuts and he was like, I gotta watch this.
00:32:57.260
I couldn't talk to him for another, for like three minutes, I'm trying to get a hold of
00:33:07.660
He's like banging the table because for Italian Americans, it's like, it's like Christopher Columbus
00:33:14.420
And growing up in Philly, like I said, we had Cabrini College.
00:33:17.180
And, and so the fact that we're taking these American heroes too, these are American heroes
00:33:23.580
that we're talking about and making films about them, telling stories about them, as opposed
00:33:28.940
to, as opposed to putting up statues of Lucifer and Satan in our own public houses.
00:33:40.660
This has been sort of the firestorm debate that's been out there.
00:33:45.360
And people are saying, Posobik, you're the, you're the Christian Taliban for, you know,
00:33:55.060
We, we must allow the Satanists to perform their worship.
00:34:00.800
They're like, they're like this fake leftist group that pretends to be Satanists, but then
00:34:06.400
And I'm like, that's exactly what Satan would do is would trick you into putting up statues
00:34:12.500
You don't put up statues of like, you know, Bozo the Clown or something, or Karl Marx,
00:34:16.640
who's basically Bozo the Clown, but if we know, like German, in terms of political philosophy,
00:34:23.640
Where do you fall down on that in terms of, of should we allow statues like this under
00:34:28.900
Or is this something that falls outside of that scope?
00:34:32.400
First of all, John Adams was the one that said, essentially, when the constitution was passed,
00:34:40.900
This is only going to work if we have a just and moral people.
00:34:45.380
When we get off of that, Dennis Prager said that, that the decline of Christianity essentially
00:34:49.660
is, you can point all of America's problems to the decline of Christianity.
00:34:53.680
And this was, this was sort of the moral backbone of the majority in the U.S. was Christianity
00:34:58.720
because we used to open, even in public schools, I said there's David French ones, he didn't
00:35:01.900
understand, that in, in just American history, schools used to open up with the passage of
00:35:10.080
And so I actually looked up that, so, so the argument I was reading that the argument
00:35:15.500
that the guy in Iowa was making was, hey, we're for freedom of religion.
00:35:19.640
So, so first of all, so I asked myself, so what does religion mean?
00:35:25.280
And, and their version of that religion means you can rape women, you can torture people,
00:35:34.520
It's all permissible because they are the enemies of Islam.
00:35:40.000
So just because you call it religion doesn't make it religion.
00:35:42.260
So I looked up Noah Webster's 1828 dictionary, which was, which is, which is kind of like
00:35:49.000
the, um, the founding, the, like the, the founding of our country, a lot of people tell
00:35:55.940
Cause you know, somebody that controls that was the dictionary of the founders.
00:36:08.520
Religion as distinct from theology is godliness or real piety in practice, consisting in the
00:36:14.280
performance of all known duties to God and our fellow men in obedience to divine command
00:36:24.280
The second one, religion as distinct from virtue or morality consists in the performance of
00:36:30.380
the duties we owe directly to God from a principle of obedience to his will.
00:36:35.600
Hence, we often speak of religion and virtue as different branches of one system or the duties
00:36:43.640
So I'm checking, I'm looking over there to double check.
00:36:46.600
He's not reading from some theological website or some, right.
00:36:51.280
Dictionary, the understood, so 1828 to 1876, you're right in the same time frame.
00:36:57.520
This is the meaning of the word of religion as understood at the time of the framing.
00:37:03.820
Now, listen to the woke dictionary now, the modern Merriam-Webster.
00:37:07.460
A personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices.
00:37:15.980
But even they, even the woke modern dictionary says the service and worship of God.
00:37:23.580
Commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance.
00:37:33.480
So, Satanism doesn't fit the definition of religion.
00:37:43.260
And the essence of Satanism is disobedience to God.
00:37:49.860
By the way, and, and Satan's motto, original motto was non-service.
00:37:57.560
Because, I mean, that's this, he leads the war on heaven and this is, this is all of it.
00:38:05.540
He, he was prideful to say that I should supplant God.
00:38:13.480
And so, to, to claim that this is a religion that deserves the same protection, it's completely against.
00:38:22.640
Which, by the way, even the worship of Satan is not something that's been done in a public codified sense at any point in history.
00:38:31.140
This has been, this is like, sure, there's been pagan and occult rituals, but this stuff, it all comes up in the 1900s.
00:38:42.020
But, but it is, I agree with you, it is totally shocking.
00:38:45.160
And I think we're seeing a lot of things that are totally shocking in our culture.
00:38:48.280
Now, speaking of, and not just things that are shocking, but, but I do want to get into a little bit.
00:38:52.680
And before we end the show, so we've got, we've got a couple minutes in this break, up until this break.
00:38:57.120
And maybe, guys, we can start showing some of the B-roll because you've just come back from Israel.
00:39:01.260
And, and I want to do, before we get, before we end the show, I want to do a little bit of a military update.
00:39:06.920
But, but tell us a little bit, we just, we just got two minutes into the break here.
00:39:11.440
About what it was like viewing Israel, because you were able to get down pretty close to Gaza.
00:39:15.940
I went to, the IDF took me to Kfaraza, which is the kibbutz that was most, one of the kibbutz that was hardest hit.
00:39:23.600
And, and, and then also to the Nova Music Festival site.
00:39:27.940
And, now have they cleaned it up now or is it, okay, okay.
00:39:32.400
I mean, I mean, they, they have cleaned the bodies out.
00:39:35.060
But what you'll see from my photos and videos, the town is the same.
00:39:40.240
And that's the weird, eerie thing is it's frozen on October 7th.
00:39:47.160
So you see, like, I went into this one home and this girl has her dresses and a little hat hung on her clothing wrap, but they have bullets through them.
00:39:59.360
There's a, I saw a little soccer ball that a little boy had left on his front lawn.
00:40:05.760
Like what, you know, and it is the most, it's so disturbing that your brain, I still, your brain doesn't have a way to process what you're looking at.
00:40:16.020
You're walking through somebody else's life as if you're in someone's house, as if they're about to come home.
00:40:22.440
And you've come into their house thinking they should be there, but they're not there and everything's, it's like when you walk home and you're the only one home and you have a sense that I'm the only one in the house.
00:40:31.700
And the people that are supposed to be here are not here.
00:40:35.080
It's the, you can still smell, because what they did was if they, if you went into your safe room, they would burn your house down and you were either burned alive or you ran out of your safe room and they'd shoot you on your way out.
00:40:48.140
You can still smell the stench from the houses that had, and they torched a lot of houses.
00:40:55.960
But you ask yourself, we're talking on our earlier subject, how does this happen?
00:41:00.620
How does a human being do this to another human being?
00:41:08.900
But once you see that, and I think this was most interesting for me, when you realize that those guys in the IDF are fighting a couple miles from their house, if you really think about how small Israel is, you wonder why they're fighting like lions?
00:41:24.180
And we, look, we visited, and we'll talk more in the next segment, but we visited a kibbutz in the north last year.
00:41:31.920
And we traveled throughout the south as well, not far at all from where this took place.
00:41:36.280
And I just think about what would have happened if it had been one year before when this happened.
00:41:44.100
Coming back with more Mafferaci after the break.
00:41:49.980
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:41:54.180
All right, Jack Posobiec back here, live, Human Events Daily, Phoenix, Arizona.
00:42:01.860
AmericaFest begins in just a few hours, really.
00:42:09.700
We will be live tomorrow from the convention center.
00:42:12.240
We're going to be pulling in all sorts of people.
00:42:14.820
And one of the buddies that I got to meet from, you know, Sound of Freedom Time was Matt Ferrati.
00:42:20.040
Matt was also telling us, though, about his recent trip to Israel.
00:42:23.500
By the way, if we've got, Faz, give me a thumbs up.
00:42:25.700
Can we get that map up of the Israel, the current situation in Gaza, the military situation in Gaza?
00:42:32.480
Because I'd love to do a map break and show people.
00:42:40.140
So people don't understand, the IDF has caused Gaza to no longer be a strip.
00:42:47.960
Just show the main map, guys, that it is now severed down the middle where there's now North Gaza, there's South Gaza.
00:42:59.160
And because of this military operation, they've been slowly and systematically going street by street.
00:43:04.400
People know they've used seawater to flood out the tunnels.
00:43:07.600
By the way, were you able to confirm, did they bless the seawater before they put it?
00:43:13.500
I certainly hope they did bless the seawater before they went in.
00:43:17.300
I think it's blessed the minute it goes into the tunnels.
00:43:19.080
Systematically, though, what they've been doing is going block by block and constricting the movements within these areas,
00:43:26.340
obviously centered around what IDF intelligence believed to be Hamas strongholds.
00:43:32.920
Because, and I said this when Lieutenant Colonel Tony Schaefer was here, probably just a couple of days after the event took place in the first time,
00:43:40.320
that it seems to me that the strategy is very clear and from Netanyahu's statements that, and look, they were, I think they underestimated Hamas.
00:43:50.780
I do. I think they underestimated that this attack was coming.
00:43:54.240
They had some warnings, and I'll ask about that in a second.
00:43:57.160
But now I think they're trying to correct for that, basically, and to say at this point going forward, Gaza will no longer be self-governing.
00:44:06.580
But talk to me about this report, and you were saying before about how some of the intel analysts had actually identified that this attack was coming,
00:44:14.460
but the commanders, just for whatever reason, discounted it.
00:44:17.420
Yeah, these were just stories that I had heard, and they have to be confirmed.
00:44:21.000
But stories I had heard is that people had been given warnings that there were specific people that would watch the walls in that area.
00:44:28.880
And I'd been there maybe seven months before this happened, and I remember...
00:44:34.280
We were there one year before. Exactly one year before.
00:44:36.780
Did you go to some of the places where you could actually look, you could get binoculars, and you could look over at Gaza?
00:44:42.380
We didn't have time to go to those, but actually, I think my brother did.
00:44:46.240
Okay. Well, it was surreal, because I was looking, and somebody a couple hundred yards was looking back at me.
00:44:56.980
Oh, by the way, we did that on the northern border with Hezbollah, actually.
00:45:00.520
So we were on the northern border with the Kibbutz, and we had the binoculars, and I'm looking across,
00:45:05.260
and there's the yellow flag of Hezbollah is flying, and we've got some IDF guys in a tank behind us,
00:45:10.700
and we played all this on the show. We actually climbed Masato on that trip.
00:45:14.980
I've got to go with you. We've got to do a trip together.
00:45:16.880
We've got to do it. We've got to do it. We've got to do it. We'll do it.
00:45:19.700
And we were on the Kibbutz, and this is in the north, right?
00:45:25.420
And so I know exactly what you're talking about.
00:45:27.820
Yeah, and I was going to say, Jack, I think that the world thought that this was just rhetoric,
00:45:33.320
and maybe even some in Israel, because, look, it's weird, right?
00:45:39.100
I remember being there on Shabbat just like two weeks ago, I think, and a rocket, you know,
00:45:44.140
when the rockets get fired, they know if it's going to land in the field,
00:45:48.260
and so they don't shoot it down with the Iron Dome if it's going to hit nowhere.
00:45:52.360
So I remember just being there, and we were eating dinner, and the rocket went off,
00:45:57.540
and you could feel the vibration, and everybody sort of barely moved because they're used to that.
00:46:09.320
And yet that's what people in Israel have been expected to do, just put up with it.
00:46:22.180
And by the way, that field, who's to say that there aren't some kids playing in there?
00:46:25.840
Who's to say that there aren't some family pets?
00:46:32.100
Or, by the way, if it doesn't go off, and then some kids go the next day,
00:46:39.000
The most interesting thing, Jack, that I think you'll be keen on is there is a spiritual revival
00:46:56.940
And they are taking their faith seriously again.
00:47:00.060
And they are understanding that it's not the government, it's not the institutions,
00:47:04.480
that if they're going to win this war, it's because they have God's favor.
00:47:16.240
You know, I haven't said this publicly, but I'm going to say it.

I've noticed that among friends of mine in the U.S. who are Jewish,
00:47:23.860
and some of whom, you know, in the past are, you know, they...
00:47:37.760
That, no, I've noticed them becoming more religious.
00:47:43.160
oh, I'm going to a dinner, I'm going to a synagogue.
00:47:51.000
So, whereas I can see it happening on the Catholic side,
00:47:55.260
where I can see it happening in the evangelical side,
00:47:58.960
now we're seeing it on the Jewish side as well.
00:48:15.280
Well, I mean, the Satanists have been on the march, okay?
00:48:24.240

00:48:33.140

Where's the best place to go for people to follow you
00:48:45.880

00:48:51.180
I have a Twitter and you can follow it at Matthew Parachi,
00:48:54.560
but I post a lot of stuff on LinkedIn, believe it or not,
00:49:00.500
LinkedIn, this might be the first LinkedIn pitch that we've had.
00:49:09.240
it's a space for people that really want to be thoughtful
00:49:18.100
We get a lot, we got a lot of comments from there.
00:49:24.100
You're not posting your pictures to the beach there.
