00:00:40.340
A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.940
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.
00:00:51.280
We have become a drug-infested, crime-ridden nation, which is incapable of solving even the smallest, smallest problems.
00:01:00.000
We have to bring in the death penalty if we want to stop the infestation of drugs coming into our country.
00:01:08.340
In a victory for the Biden administration, the Supreme Court ruled that border patrol agents can remove razor wire put in place along a stretch of the southern border in Texas.
00:01:17.320
The Supreme Court's narrowly divided ruling came after an emergency request from the Biden administration
00:01:22.400
that argued the wire was endangering migrants while preventing law enforcement from patrolling the area.
00:01:28.540
To stop the deadly drugs that are poisoning our people, I will deploy U.S. Navy to impose a full fentanyl blockade.
00:01:35.880
A big decision on Monday that could impact the Fulton County election indictment happening miles away in a Cobb County courtroom.
00:01:42.420
The secretive case of special prosecutor Nathan Wade's divorce, secret no more.
00:01:46.560
Donald Trump is not leading the Republican Party and leading the Republican field of candidates because of his youthful vigor.
00:01:53.300
If you pick me, that'll be the end of politics.
00:01:56.320
And you won't have to deal with politics anymore.
00:01:58.600
You'll have a strongman leader and I'll just do what I want.
00:02:01.000
That strongman model is what the Republican base is enthused about.
00:02:09.980
I think there's more enthusiasm now than I've ever seen.
00:02:13.900
In fact, most of the people in the country are going to the Trump rally right now because he's listening to them.
00:02:21.880
I hope you understand why I'm getting tired of it.
00:02:23.760
You're doing your jobs, but you're not asking the questions that Americans give a s*** about.
00:02:30.060
I think we're going to win by big margins, yeah.
00:02:31.940
Instead of voting for Haley, I voted for Donald Trump this morning.
00:02:40.900
Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C.
00:02:55.920
We're all upset about the Supreme Court decision that came out last night.
00:03:03.560
And in fact, when you look at the ruling, which came in 5-4, it appears that all five of the women on the Supreme Court voted the exact same way.
00:03:15.280
You see, we were wondering, we were wondering so much, how would it go with Amy Coney Barrett on the Supreme Court, on the bench?
00:03:26.940
A lot of people pointed out she's conservative.
00:03:31.620
Well, it turns out that, you see, and I can say this as a Catholic, we have this sort of strain in Catholics where they're pro-life, okay, so they're conservative on that issue, but they're pretty liberal on just about everything else.
00:03:48.960
They're basically social justice warrior Catholics.
00:03:51.820
I'm not saying that she's exactly one of them, but it is certainly a concern.
00:03:56.400
John Zmirek wrote a piece at humanevents.com that everyone can go see raising that exact same question.
00:04:10.660
You think that you're going to put your trust in a lawyer?
00:04:12.740
You're going to put your trust in somebody that hides behind pieces of paper, that hides behind words, someone that's going to go and go into court and make their, you know, make their speech, make their hearing.
00:04:26.800
That's the person that you think is going to save the country in any of these instances?
00:04:39.940
This movement and this country will not be saved if we put all our chips in the basket of lawyers and turning to the lawyers for everything.
00:04:54.560
This country was founded through use of arms, by the way.
00:05:03.580
And I see a lot of people now taking the black pill.
00:05:06.320
I see a lot of black pillars saying, oh, we'll just, just go to the red states and we can hide in the red states and the blue states will get worse.
00:05:25.700
Because the national government will still come for you, regardless of what state you're in.
00:05:33.920
Maybe there could be an interesting thing there.
00:05:35.920
But even then, the national government is still going to come.
00:05:46.600
And I see a lot of people wanting to turn away from this path because it's hard.
00:05:54.620
That's called Take Over the National Government.
00:05:59.120
Well, I spent the last eight years of my life committed to this project.
00:06:03.680
And I know a lot of people in this audience have as well.
00:06:08.260
We are so close right now to fully taking over the national government and doing what must be done.
00:06:13.860
And we are not going to let these people get in our way ever again.
00:06:24.060

Nippy, bam, bam, like Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:06:57.520
All right, Jack Posobiec here, live Human Events Daily.
00:07:02.560
Folks, the world is quickly descending into chaos.
00:07:05.340
The next medical crisis, right around the corner.
00:07:08.100
Whether it's another pandemic or something closer to home, preparedness is no longer an option.
00:07:14.360
And that is where the wellness company comes in.
00:07:17.100
From something innocent and natural like a tick bite to COVID to the next bioweapon manufactured in a lab in some third world country,
00:07:24.380
the wellness company's medical emergency kit is what you need to be prepared.
00:07:28.260

00:08:19.380
All right, let me tell you something, guys. Let me tell you something right now.
00:08:22.440
No blackpilling. You understand that? There will be no blackpilling.
00:08:27.940
I see one of you guys blackpilling. I said, catch one of you guys blackpilling.
00:08:31.240
There's going to be trouble out there. Absolute trouble for you and yours.
00:08:36.240
There's no blackpilling in here. It is not going to happen.
00:08:40.040
By the way, I'm told from the producers, our producer Fahs says,
00:08:45.100
that we might be getting a very special guest soon.
00:08:50.040
Not the senator. Someone that's a surprise guest from New Hampshire might be joining us in a few minutes.
00:08:56.960
I'm going to leave it at that for right now, folks, because I don't like to throw stuff out that isn't confirmed.
00:09:00.640
So we might be getting a special guest. All right. I'm not going to promise you something that I can't deliver.
00:09:05.020
But here's the thing, folks. Here's the thing. I don't want to hear this blackpilling.
00:09:09.560
I don't want to hear it. The task is arduous. The work is hard.
00:09:16.720
Guess what, boys and girls? That's why it's called work.
00:09:20.700
You don't give up just because you get hit with something.
00:09:24.680
By the way, the Supreme Court decision, you understand this isn't even the final decision on the case, the final ruling.
00:09:30.080
This was involving an emergency injunction that came up during the course of the appeal at the Fifth Circuit.
00:09:38.420
This means that the Fifth Circuit hasn't even finished their ruling on the case.
00:09:49.140
Then after that, if it gets appealed again, depending on how it, you know, on how it shakes out, if it gets appealed again, then there would be a full Supreme Court ruling.
00:10:00.800
OK, so understand the game is never over just because you lose one match.
00:10:06.720
OK, the game is only over when you stop fighting.
00:10:19.280
Look, people say, why don't you just why don't you just give up and move somewhere?
00:10:28.220
And that's why when I see Donald Trump and he's on trial and they pull him into New York and then they pull him down to Georgia and they pull him back to D.C.
00:10:36.980
and he goes to the hearings and then he flies up to New Hampshire.
00:10:46.300
This energy is more than anything that I have ever seen.
00:10:49.500
Ladies and gentlemen, Eric Trump joins us now from New Hampshire with Ben Berkwam.
00:11:00.600
Jack, we're going to have a great night tonight.
00:11:05.980
I just went over to a bunch of the polling locations and it's it's fun to see a lot of Trump signs everywhere we drive.
00:11:11.460
I mean, everywhere we drive, there were Trump signs all over the place.
00:11:15.680
And I think you have a lot of people who want their country back.
00:11:18.320
You have, you know, a lot of people who are upset.
00:11:20.960
I know that Joe Biden is the worst president that we've ever seen and, you know, want to get somebody competent in office and want Donald Trump.
00:11:29.640
I mean, desperately is probably an understatement.
00:11:32.280
I just came from Londonderry and the crowd over there.
00:11:39.840
I saw one Nikki Haley sign and I probably saw 300 President Trump signs, hundreds of Trump supporters out there.
00:11:47.680
And what's interesting, Eric, is that, you know, the issues when you talk to people about the issues, I do a lot of border work and everybody up here, you ask them top two issues.
00:11:57.240
It's border and economy and they don't trust Biden on any of it.
00:12:00.520
I mean, they know he's just a traitor to our country.
00:12:03.420
And listen, border encapsulates so many things, right?
00:12:05.520
It's not just it's not just people coming over.
00:12:11.820
I lost a good friend's son the other day to the fentanyl crisis.
00:12:18.140
But beyond that, you see World War Three effectively breaking out around the world.
00:12:24.340
Now you see what's happening in the Middle East.
00:12:25.800
You know, you're probably going to have something with China.
00:12:28.320
You know, literally the world's becoming unstable under kind of American weakness because you have a weak guy in office.
00:12:34.920
You have a guy who isn't focused on the economy.
00:12:37.340
You have inflation that, you know, for the last four years, three years, has greatly outpaced wage growth.
00:12:45.400
We're losing our manufacturing or, you know, there is that, you know, invasion on the southern border.
00:12:49.480
Over 10 million people have come across the southern border.
00:12:51.980
These are not just people from Central and South America.
00:12:54.680
You're seeing passports and currency and everything else from all over the world right now.
00:12:58.620
These people are, you know, going to bring in real issues.
00:13:01.260
We have no idea who they are, and they're not doing a damn thing about it.
00:13:03.940
In fact, they're cutting razor wires, we speak right now, to allow those people in after this, you know, horrendous Supreme Court ruling.
00:13:12.540
I mean, we don't look strong in the eyes of the world.
00:13:19.500
You know, you have a president who vacations 40 percent of the time.
00:13:22.780
He's more concerned about, you know, six foot five men swimming in, you know, women's sports than he is on our military, on our country, on our borders, on the things that actually matter.
00:13:33.560
And we're losing the American dream in this country.
00:13:35.760
And that's what we as a family are fighting so hard to try and save the American dream.
00:13:39.920
Now, when you guys are going down there, obviously, you're talking to voters.
00:13:46.260
Your father, of course, speaking at events in between these hearings that they're subjecting him through, like the 12 labors of Hercules.
00:13:54.160
But, you know, when when you're talking to the voters, specifically even today, as people are actually going to the polls for and believe it or not, folks, this is the first primary in the nation because I was a caucus.
00:14:05.540
Just what are you hearing issues wise from the voters?
00:14:14.000
You know, honestly, Jack, the first thing I hear is, you know, Eric, we're really sorry.
00:14:21.560
We see the abuse you take and you guys get absolutely nothing out of this.
00:14:26.120
And, you know, you're just trying to do the right thing.
00:14:27.760
And we're sorry and we love you and we're praying for you and our community is praying for you.
00:14:33.420
And, you know, then, you know, pretty universally, people want their their country back and go through the the order of priority.
00:14:55.220
They want, you know, they want to be able to live the American dream.
00:14:57.460
They want to be able to go to Disney World with our kids.
00:15:00.100
But you can't because we have a bad economy and, you know, people are getting crammed down.
00:15:04.240
Again, as I said a second ago, you know, inflation is greatly outpacing wage growth.
00:15:07.920
And so people are getting crammed down every single day.
00:15:11.460
Go out and, you know, the eggs are up 70 percent.
00:15:14.280
A two by four costs nine bucks, you know, nine bucks when, you know, under my father was two.
00:15:24.100
We should have the lowest gas prices in the world.
00:15:27.740
And, you know, we're energy independent under my father.
00:15:29.800
And, you know, they reverse that under Biden because he's incompetent.
00:15:32.820
Look at fuel oil, especially when you get to these colder states.
00:15:36.260
I mean, people use fuel oil to heat their homes.
00:15:38.300
And, you know, look how expensive it is versus a couple of years ago.
00:15:42.200
And then people are looking at our standing globally and they're petrified.
00:15:48.500
They're seeing our military vessels getting rocket shot at them.
00:15:52.180
The one thing I can tell you, Jack, is they weren't shooting missiles at aircraft carriers
00:15:56.440
and in our ships in the Middle East under Donald Trump.
00:16:01.360
You know, Russia would have never happened under him.
00:16:02.660
The Israeli nonsense would have never happened under him.
00:16:07.640
It is so sad to see what's happening in Israel.
00:16:12.560
And certainly our warships should not be having missiles shot at them by, you know, a terrorist group
00:16:19.660
and, you know, unsophisticated terrorist group.
00:16:21.780
They should, you know, this would not have happened under Trump.
00:16:26.820
And it's actually, as you say, it's directly connected because we've because we lost our oil independence,
00:16:33.140
our energy independence now with the United States and Europe predominantly are dependent
00:16:37.700
on the oil that's coming through the Red Sea, which is what the Houthis have been used.
00:16:41.860
And we talk about this all the time on the show.
00:16:43.380
This is why the Houthis are doing that to the Red Sea.
00:16:46.000
I put on my naval officer hat there and talk about this.
00:16:48.660
But they're they're shutting down the oil supply and they're using very cheap missiles, very cheap drones to be able to do so.
00:16:55.160
It is a it's it's actually a very good strategy from their perspective,
00:16:58.440
because they're able to do this very cheaply and totally bottleneck us because we don't have anyone who's put them.
00:17:10.840
I mean, Russia would have never been able to afford, you know, the war that they're fighting right now if we had $30 oil or $40 oil in the US.
00:17:17.260
I mean, you know, the fact that you have $100 plus oil is what affords Russia the ability to, you know, wage a massive war in Ukraine.
00:17:29.300
I mean, Iran was at its knees when we had $30, $40 oil.
00:17:34.980
He went around the world saying, listen, anybody buys oil from Iran, you know,
00:17:38.360
you're going to lose the ability to do all business with the United States.
00:17:45.860
So not only do we pay more here at the pump, every single person,
00:17:48.920
but then we have to send $200 billion over to Ukraine to fight a war that we effectively allowed to happen based on the fact that,
00:17:57.280
you know, the first order Biden had when he got into the Oval Office was, you know, cut off the Keystone Exile pipeline.
00:18:08.340
You know, so we pay $200 billion to have the privilege of paying more here at home in every aspect of our life,
00:18:16.620
I mean, what he did with energy is suicide for the United States of America.
00:18:22.380
And then you add to that, Jack, if I can jump in on that, too.
00:18:24.820
It's what he's done effectively, Joe Biden has done, what the American people,
00:18:32.920
But really, if you boil it down, and this goes back to Eric and to Don Jr.
00:18:36.820
And to President Trump, from a business mindset, they want certainty.
00:18:43.540
If they're a business owner, they want certainty in what the pricings are going to be.
00:18:46.780
If they're a mom or a dad, they want certainty in what's going to be taught to their kids at school.
00:18:50.720
If they're in government, if they're in the media, people just want to live a life and have an idea of what's coming at them.
00:19:00.220
The only certainty we have is what we see around the world is that Joe Biden is going to be a weak, pathetic, non-leader.
00:19:06.940
And so we're basically giving the globe to him.
00:19:09.840
You look at what's happening on our southern border.
00:19:15.360
And every single one of these issues goes back to that.
00:19:18.280
And that's why the voters stand with President Trump.
00:19:20.980
I asked him the question today, though, how do you – the big concern that people have, they keep coming up and saying,
00:19:26.440
how do we prevent 2020 from happening again in 2024?
00:19:29.620
And that's the big concern is making sure they don't steal it again in 2024.
00:19:35.560
Well, and let me ask this as well, though, because this has been one of the refrains that has been going on for a while.
00:19:42.840
And I've seen this on X and going viral and trending, et cetera.
00:19:50.920
But, you know, is there a sense that, you know, if you were actually seeking,
00:19:56.300
if you were actually seeking to dismantle the United States and to take us down as a country
00:20:00.200
and reduce the power, reduce the country in the United States,
00:20:04.120
reduce the level of the standard of living of the American people,
00:20:09.320
Do you actually think that that's what the agenda is here?
00:20:15.100
Well, I mean, either they're the world's dumbest people or they've got alternative motives,
00:20:29.500
I mean, we've got more natural gas and oil under our feet than any country in the world,
00:20:33.400
but yet they're, you know, buying lithium batteries from China.
00:20:38.840
You know, we're literally going, all transportation in this country is literally going to a source
00:20:45.040
that America really has zero production in and giving it to, you know, the largest kind of threat
00:20:51.480
that we have, existential threat to the United States.
00:20:56.760
You have the economic aspects, but then you have the home aspect, right?
00:21:02.240
You have literally a war on religion, a war on the flag.
00:21:05.780
You have, you know, groups that want to take, you know, one nation under God out of the Pledge of Allegiance.
00:21:14.480
You've got, you know, women Olympic soccer teams that are kneeling in front of the national flag, you know,
00:21:19.280
and, you know, before they play the national anthem.
00:21:22.620
You know, you literally have half of a country that wanted the women's Olympic soccer team to lose
00:21:27.640
because they'd rather have them lose than have the embarrassment of these guys, again, kneeling, you know,
00:21:46.020
It's, you know, fatherless crisis in this country.
00:21:54.560
You know, every single, you know, TikTok reel will be, you know,
00:21:56.900
a beautiful girl playing the piano at a very young age and showing some talent.
00:22:01.240
TikTok in America is literally a kid throwing an apple pie in their father's face.
00:22:04.900
You know, they would never allow that overseas,
00:22:06.360
and they want the demise of our society in every single way because it benefits them.
00:22:12.340
I mean, fentanyl was being sent into this country by China with one intent,
00:22:17.140
and that was to maim our youth, maybe the most important aspect of society,
00:22:21.660
you know, the aspect that's supposed to be productive.
00:22:27.260
And it's killing hundreds of thousands of kids every single year.
00:22:29.680
And aside from the hundreds of thousands of deaths, it's just destroying families.
00:22:39.040
It's the aunt, the uncle, the grandma, the grandfather.
00:22:45.480
And so, yes, I mean, either it's gross negligence and incompetence or worse.
00:22:55.620
Well, Eric and Ben, I understand that you guys have to run.
00:23:05.320
We'll be checking in later with Rav and the rest of the team as the results roll in later tonight.

All right, folks, so we just had Eric Trump there, New Hampshire.
00:24:56.060
I know we've been talking about Iowa and all of this right now.
00:24:59.580
But, you know, where it's a caucus and it starts later and then people move from one
00:25:05.900
The New Hampshire primary, this is a regular election.
00:25:10.220
This is a situation where polls open in the morning, close in the evening.
00:25:20.320
We do know that the Suffolk University poll came out just a little while ago.
00:25:25.680
I'm going to pull it up here this morning so people can see.
00:25:29.760
And Richard Barris was here yesterday telling us how important this was.
00:25:32.980
He said, this is the poll that you really want to look at.
00:25:35.380
It'll come out on the eve of the primary itself.
00:25:41.760
In that poll, Trump leads, and this is from the postmillennial.com, Trump leads Haley by
00:25:47.360
22 points in the final Suffolk poll ahead of the New Hampshire primary.
00:25:57.560
So that said basically that Trump gained three points since the poll was released on Monday.
00:26:04.280
That means that it looks like a lot of that support that would have potentially gone to
00:26:10.060
Governor DeSantis that was happening from Sunday.
00:26:16.540
So the Monday poll didn't completely reflect it, caught a lot of it.
00:26:20.160
Now the poll that came out last night is getting the full brunt of it.
00:26:23.820
I'm told now, by the way, that we do have Senator Johnson coming to us live.
00:26:29.340
Senator Johnson, do we have a connection with you?
00:26:41.220
Now, we understand that the Democrats are very upset with you because you want to do something
00:26:45.960
that, you know, sometimes people don't like to do anymore in the Senate, and that's called
00:26:52.920
I can't understand why people seem to have forgotten this lost art.
00:26:55.760
Well, they're willing to negotiate, but it has to be behind closed doors and in secret.
00:27:01.200
And what I've certainly been suggesting, you know, particularly on an issue where the vast
00:27:05.040
majority of Americans agree with us that they want a secure border, a sovereign U.S.,
00:27:13.480
The reason is neither side, you know, the leadership of neither side trusts the public.
00:27:19.600
They want to do some unholy deal, something that provides Democrats political cover.
00:27:25.820
You know, my concern is it'll be something that actually won't secure the border because
00:27:30.220
our leadership basically didn't even try to negotiate any kind of enforcement mechanism.
00:27:35.840
Like we were suggesting in conference repeatedly, why don't we tie Ukraine funding, make it
00:27:41.600
contingent on them actually securing the border?
00:27:43.920
You know, set metrics, make them meet thresholds.
00:27:51.180
You know, targets you have to meet to get certain bonuses.
00:27:57.400
I had something proposed, but that wasn't even allowed to be discussed is what we were told.
00:28:09.900
Because we understand, and I had thrown this out earlier, and then the Pentagon's out, Lloyd
00:28:14.360
Austin saying that all Ukraine funding will be ended by March 8th.
00:28:19.240
That's, of course, the current date on the on the current resolution.
00:28:23.180
And so they're really trying to drive this home.
00:28:25.300
Zelensky, of course, was at the World Economic Forum talking about it as well.
00:28:30.900
Well, first of all, my assumption was there would probably be enough support, particularly
00:28:35.540
with any kind of even minimal border security, for $60 billion in Ukraine funding.
00:28:43.600
I think most Americans are sympathetic with the brave and courageous people of Ukraine,
00:28:48.600
that they think Vladimir Putin's evil, and they'd like to see him certainly not win.
00:28:56.880
You know, other places, there's great opposition.
00:29:00.900
But if it was going to pass, my suggestion was make it contingent on actually securing
00:29:09.800
Trump took his top level number of migrants crossing per day and reduced that down to pretty
00:29:19.120
much secure border over the course of 12 months.
00:29:23.400
So I divvy up $60 billion divided by $5 billion a month and maybe give, you know, $5, $10, $15
00:29:30.520
billion up front, wait three months, but then have rigorous targets that would force the
00:29:35.700
Biden administration to actually secure the border over that 12-month time period.
00:29:39.300
I think the open border pushed by Biden and Democrats is a clear and present danger to America.
00:29:49.020
Whether you agree or disagree with funding for Ukraine, if you can use that as leverage to
00:29:53.320
secure the border, that would have been a deal I could have supported.
00:29:56.540
But I'm not seeing a negotiated deal right now that gives me confidence we would actually secure
00:30:02.500
I think it would give Democrats cover, but I'm not so sure it's going to actually secure the border.
00:30:08.700
And so that's basically you're drawing a line in the sand specifically on securing the border
00:30:18.320
When it comes to the Democrats, have you heard, and we just got a couple of minutes until the break,
00:30:21.860
but are you hearing anything, any traction, or are you getting any reciprocal calls from people
00:30:27.840
saying that they're willing to work on this issue?
00:30:32.700
You know, sounds like Langford never even asked for it because he was told not to ask for it.
00:30:37.800
Again, this is good information I have on it, but again, it had a great deal of support inside
00:30:42.760
the Republican conference, and it just made all the sense in the world.
00:30:50.420
I mean, let's face it, that's a big problem for James Langford, who, by the way,
00:30:54.560
very knowledgeable, probably the right guy to negotiate this.
00:30:58.980
Our problem is Mitch McConnell is the puppet master here pulling the strings,
00:31:02.480
and he's the one that's saying, well, we don't want to tie Ukraine.
00:31:28.360
We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the
00:31:39.620
We promised you more with Senator Johnson, who's giving us these exclusive details on
00:31:45.760
Senator Johnson, when you left us, you said that Langford, who's taken the position of
00:31:51.260
really kind of being the point man on these negotiations, you said that he didn't even
00:31:58.120
And your assessment was that's because he was on orders from Mitch McConnell?
00:32:03.800
That's basically understanding of it, that we never even asked for making Ukraine funding
00:32:14.640
contingent on actually meeting border security.
00:32:17.980
Now, they're talking about other types of metrics, other kind of forcing mechanisms.
00:32:24.980
What I have seen, I can poke holes in from a standpoint, well, this is a way the Democrats
00:32:32.820
This is the Mack truck they'll drive through this hole.
00:32:40.340
You know, before you hit the close the border stage, how do you process four or 5,000 people
00:32:46.700
Right now, they're saying they can process 500.
00:32:49.940
How's that different from current catch and release?
00:32:55.000
And oh, by the way, the border is 100% secure on the Mexican side of the border.
00:33:00.120
The cartels have more than capable of metering the flow to stay under whatever threshold might
00:33:11.580
So again, you have to understand and recognize the reality of the situation.
00:33:15.540
And with this administration, a lawless administration, a president that ignores Supreme Court rules,
00:33:21.360
that is not faithfully executing the law, you need some kind of forcing mechanism to actually
00:33:26.760
get him to abide by whatever agreement you cut with him.
00:33:29.700
You know, that's interesting, by the way, you just mentioned the Supreme Court decision.
00:33:35.760
Obviously, we were talking about that earlier in the show as well, completely against it.
00:33:39.700
Now, do you think, by the way, though, and this is something that could be brought up as well in these
00:33:43.960
negotiations, obviously, isn't that also something that could be used in these negotiations?
00:33:51.940
I was talking about the eviction moratorium and student loans.
00:33:57.360
You've got the Biden administration supposedly doing a deal because they want to secure the border.
00:34:01.940
And they're fighting, you know, Governor Abbott down in Texas tooth and nail.
00:34:06.560
And they're bringing things before the court to make sure that, you know, CBP can dismantle
00:34:11.720
what fencing that Texas installed to try and protect its citizens.
00:34:18.540
Again, I think James is doing as good a job as James can do, you know, having to listen
00:34:25.380
to Mitch McConnell is basically telling him what he can and can't ask for.
00:34:29.280
But the fact of the matter is, his biggest problem is he's dealing with people who want
00:34:36.920
Again, they really don't want to secure the border.
00:34:43.080
So again, this is it's it's I don't see how you negotiate a good deal with people that
00:34:51.600
Well, this this idea, again, that they want the borderless society, that they want us to
00:34:59.180
be completely exposed to whatever is coming across, not not enough to mention just the
00:35:05.000
sheer numbers that you've spoken about just here under President Trump in his previous
00:35:11.940
We actually experienced a net decrease in the overall foreign born population, I think
00:35:16.920
for the first time since 1965, since the since LBJ's bill was passed.
00:35:22.320
This is something where I know, of course, COVID played a role in that as well, but it was
00:35:26.780
But if you look at that same graph ever since Biden comes in, it explodes.
00:35:30.620
The numbers just completely explode across our border.
00:35:34.760
And I'm sorry, but Senator, for the life of me, I can't understand how and I agree with
00:35:38.960
you that I can't understand how this could possibly be happening if it wasn't by design.
00:35:49.380
He pretty well hit the low point in April of 2020.
00:35:58.240
Now, he took it from about 1,200 a day down to 570 a day with title 42.
00:36:02.500
But then Democrat presidential candidates were talking about how they were going to end
00:36:08.320
And so then you see the number of single adults start rising until Biden was inaugurated.
00:36:13.180
And then the border exploded because Biden dismantled all the successful programs that
00:36:19.460
You know, we'd pretty well stop the flow of unaccompanied children, family units, which
00:36:24.700
There are a lot of good things about what President Trump did.
00:36:28.920
But President Biden thought that was so, so humane.
00:36:31.920
So now his open border policy is facilitating the multi-billion dollar business model.
00:36:37.360
Some of the most evil people on the planet, human, sex, drug traffickers.
00:36:42.780
There's nothing humane about the Democrat and President Biden's open border policy.
00:36:46.740
In fact, Senator, I actually saw a stat just last night.
00:36:51.900
I haven't even posted this on X, but, you know, I'll mention it here that I've now seen
00:36:57.360
that overdose deaths in America, just in terms of population, have now overtaken the place
00:37:05.340
where Russia was after the fall of the Soviet Union.
00:37:08.040
And everybody knows that deaths related to vodka and alcoholism just absolutely skyrocketed
00:37:18.920
So during the Yeltsin years, those those alcohol related deaths, we've now overtaken them.
00:37:26.820
They were about like twenty nine, twenty nine point five.
00:37:29.260
We're now in the 30s in terms of that, in terms of population, in terms of our rate because
00:37:34.580
And for some reason, this administration just isn't even interested in actually talking
00:37:39.700
The media treats it as if it's some kind of almost like a natural disaster that's just
00:37:44.000
sort of happening and it's tragic, but there's nothing we can do about it.
00:37:49.900
And these are obviously policy decisions that could be changed with the stroke of a pen.
00:37:56.300
They're the ones that provide the precursor chemicals they used to ship and directly in the
00:38:02.920
This was a couple of pieces of legislation that just changed it.
00:38:06.760
You know, the setting of the ship, the precursor chemicals now to Mexico and using our porous,
00:38:11.500
our wide open border to funnel them into the U.S. and poison American cities.
00:38:21.140
Probably one of the reasons the Biden administration doesn't want to talk about it, because President
00:38:24.520
Biden is so horribly compromised because of hunters and Biden Inc.'s connections to
00:38:38.480
We had 51 intel agents come out and tell us that that was all Russian disinformation.
00:38:44.320
So, I mean, it all the hallmarks of that, isn't it?
00:38:46.540
We should trust those same intel agencies, shouldn't we?
00:38:51.980
So as scandalous and as concerning as the Biden Inc.
00:38:55.560
corruption is that the fact that we have corruption within federal law enforcement, our
00:38:59.220
intelligence services, and then, of course, the corruption, the mainstream media that has
00:39:02.320
bought all this stuff hook, line and sinker or knowingly pushed false narratives like their
00:39:07.960
Trump Russian collusion false narrative and put America through political turmoil that hasn't
00:39:14.940
I mean, this is still the same the same actors, partisan actors in federal agencies.
00:39:20.880
Now, you know, we are overcharging Trump, these political prosecutions and the mainstream
00:39:25.280
media cheerleading of that kind of abuse to our democracy.
00:39:31.880
And so when when I look at these situations and by the way, I say this as a former Navy intelligence
00:39:37.020
officer myself, you know, I remember going in there and saying, hey, aren't we going to do
00:39:42.460
Aren't we going to do something about the penetration of our national security, the defense of Taiwan,
00:39:48.620
Are we going to do something about defending our nation?
00:39:50.640
And you find that the actors in there are much more interested in political positions
00:39:54.380
and parroting whatever the talking points that come out of Washington, D.C.
00:39:58.760
And that even when we would have intelligence that came out of the field, the closer it got
00:40:04.420
to D.C., it just seemed like the more politicized and stovepipe that it got.
00:40:09.100
Yeah, I mean, the root cause of all this problem of all these problems is we have a massive federal
00:40:17.320
You know, Eisenhower, if you haven't watched his his farewell address, he not only warned
00:40:21.280
us about the military industrial complex, but he warned us about a scientific technological
00:40:25.500
elite being driven by public funding of science and research.
00:40:30.400
So it was corrupted that we saw that a big time during COVID, how we've corrupted our federal
00:40:36.500
He warned us about plundering and mortgaging our kids future.
00:40:38.660
And then he also warned his fourth warning was about not letting global society fall into
00:40:50.480
And that's, of course, what the left is pushing.
00:41:03.040
Well, precisely, Senator, because they get us to hate each other.
00:41:07.260
They get us to and more importantly, they get us to question one another and question our
00:41:11.640
motives and suspect one another rather than actually working against these actors.
00:41:17.480
Quick break here, Senator Johnson, definitely one of the fieriest and truth filled interviews
00:41:24.180
that we've had here on the program in a long time.
00:41:32.500
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:41:38.320
Fiery interview with Senator Ron Johnson, full of truth, ladies and gentlemen, speaking of
00:41:43.500
an area where it's very hard for the United States citizenry, at least, to get much truth.
00:41:52.660
Of course, media has been denied a lot of access to this.
00:41:56.820
The United States government has not been very forthwith about where all that money exactly
00:42:02.700
And yet we're told now the AP has got this huge article up that Lloyd Austin is in his
00:42:10.860
I guess I would hope certainly a secured VTC conference call with the coalition of the
00:42:16.860
willing saying we don't have any money to support you past March 8th.
00:42:21.160
So you're going to have to pull together because the United States Congress has not signed a deal
00:42:28.300
Senator Johnson, walk us through this, what you've called for in terms of a special conference
00:42:33.760
on Ukraine and tell us what information have you received as a senator who's being asked to
00:42:39.680
obviously vote on all of these aid packages as to where exactly this money is going.
00:42:44.940
So, first of all, let's say the Biden administration, you can't trust a word they say.
00:42:49.760
They've done nothing to earn the trust of the American public.
00:42:54.200
You know, the president lies repeatedly at what Defense Secretary Austin did from his
00:43:01.740
But that being said, one of the reasons I called this conference meeting for tomorrow
00:43:05.720
is in the Republican conference in the Senate, we've talked about Ukraine one time.
00:43:18.000
The rest of us were told to keep our comments to 60 seconds.
00:43:21.340
Now, this isn't the greatest delivered body on earth, right?
00:43:23.680
You know, an important and complex issue, and we gave it short shrift.
00:43:27.620
So I thought if we're going to be voting on a supplemental, we ought to talk about this.
00:43:34.760
I was the only member of Congress that attended Zelensky's inauguration.
00:43:42.540
I was chairman of the European Subcommittee at that point in time.
00:43:44.820
Went back with Chris Murphy, and we met again with him among many issues.
00:43:50.020
I think he was dead serious about trying to defeat corruption.
00:43:55.840
But one point he made to me, to us, was that he wanted to do a peace deal with Putin.
00:44:01.560
Now, this is when Russia had already completely annexed Crimea.
00:44:08.420
Zelensky knew it wouldn't be politically popular, but he also knew he couldn't displace Russia,
00:44:15.800
And so he wanted to do a peace agreement with them.
00:44:18.520
Fast forward, now we're in this bloody stalemate.
00:44:30.800
If he doesn't use them, he'll certainly threaten to use them.
00:44:33.380
Ukraine can't do the things like lob missiles into Moscow to turn the hearts and minds of Russians
00:44:39.720
So you have to recognize the only way the bloodshed ends is in a negotiated settlement.
00:44:46.680
Americans aren't going to like the kind of settlement you have to do with the evil war criminal Putin.
00:44:53.720
And every day that this war goes on, more Ukrainians die, more Russian conscripts die.
00:45:00.220
These people are pulled out of their villages and sent to the front lines as cannon fodder,
00:45:06.680
So anything the U.S. ought to do, or everything we do, ought to be focused around how do you convince
00:45:14.580
Vladimir Putin, sit down, sit down with Zelensky, end this bloody stalemate, do it sooner rather than
00:45:22.520
And I think that's certainly part of the discussion.
00:45:25.520
If the administration is asking for another $60 billion, not having accounted for this first
00:45:29.580
$100 billion, when you've got Zelensky aides telling reporters, turn off your recorder,
00:45:34.880
and then they say privately, they're stealing like there's no tomorrow, there are a lot of
00:45:40.880
Nobody's answering questions, and we don't even have much of an opportunity to ask them.
00:45:45.160
You mentioned having those communications with Zelensky at the time and his administration.
00:45:53.340
When you mentioned about him wanting a peace deal with Russia, was that before the war started
00:45:58.300
Because I know we've received reports of that, you know, in like May of 2022 or March of 2022.
00:46:07.200
It might have been the day of his inauguration or when I went back to with Chris Murphy,
00:46:12.300
But again, I was thoroughly convinced he wanted to do, he was rational enough to realize he's
00:46:17.680
not going to displace Russia, better do a peace deal with Russia and get it over with so he could
00:46:22.720
try and spend his effort to defeat corruption in Ukraine and build a more prosperous nation
00:46:29.860
That's what his focus was when I met him after he just got elected.
00:46:35.200
And actually, I remember covering the fact that he campaigned on that very same promise.
00:46:42.740
So I think it's like something like 70 percent of the vote back in 2019 when he was elected,
00:46:47.320
because at the time and this was it was those three provinces and including Crimea at the
00:46:54.560
And, you know, simply obviously history took a slightly different route.
00:47:00.080
Of course, he was tied into the first impeachment of Trump over the phone call.
00:47:04.340
And it all comes down to this question, again, of the aid and where the aid is going.
00:47:09.480
And this is something even when I visited myself in the summer of 2022, we weren't in Lviv or
00:47:16.600
Lviv, however, you know, depending on which politically correct side you want to take on
00:47:24.360
I had a guy within a couple hours to start to tell me how I could buy AR-15s because the AR-15s were
00:47:30.600
coming in and he had had done a deal, had gone wrong, but he needed some money.
00:47:34.640
So he's asking me if I wanted to buy the AR-15s.
00:47:37.240
I'm like, I don't think a U.S. citizen should be coming to a war zone to buy AR-15s.
00:47:42.040
But if I can do it that quickly, imagine what the people on the ground who might be bad actors
00:47:50.140
Senator, we've got about a minute and a half left.
00:47:51.980
Where can people go for more information to follow you?
00:47:55.520
And what should people be thinking about as we go forward with this budget negotiation?
00:48:07.440
But listen, we need to focus on the big things.
00:48:10.040
Understanding that probably the greatest threat to our nation right now is the division that
00:48:17.440
Identity politics, critical race theory, you know, the whole transgender issue that just
00:48:22.720
Again, this is all meant to divide us and weaken America.
00:48:26.320
If you were asked to develop a strategy to destroy this country, you couldn't come up
00:48:29.960
with a better game plan than what has been initiated by Biden and the radical leftists
00:48:35.680
The open borders, the 40-year high inflation, war on fossil fuels, the weakness internationally
00:48:42.720
So focus on the big issues and then understand that we are plundering and mortgaging our children's
00:48:47.700
future and support those elected officials that are willing to say, no, we can't do this
00:48:54.080
All right, Senator Ron Johnson from the great state of Wisconsin.
00:48:58.580
The best cheese curds, by the way, on the face of the planet.
00:49:02.800
I can't wait for the convention later this summer.
00:49:08.980
You got to get them fresh before they're refrigerated.
00:49:10.760
But you're right, every day, absolutely fresh Mars cheese castle.
00:49:20.480
We'll see you in the live chat for the New Hampshire election stream.
00:49:26.240
God bless to rumble to X to everyone in the live chats.
00:49:29.080
Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission.
