On this episode of Human Events Daily, Jack Posobrien talks about the latest in the latest news involving President Trump, Joe Biden, and Vladimir Putin. Plus, the latest on the Iran nuclear deal, and more!
00:25:10.760Well, what the hell do you mean by denazification?
00:25:13.760You know, yes, there are, you know, for 80 years.
00:25:18.760But like, what does that actually mean?
00:25:20.760And then he goes on to say, well, it's a very much a live ideology and anti-Semitism, this or that.
00:25:25.760So that would have been a perfect occasion to bring up, you know, October 7th, this or that.
00:25:29.760But the fact that he doesn't indicates that he's walking a very delicate line because geopolitically, Russia has
00:25:38.760to play footsie or even more than footsie these days with, you know, what we might generally refer to as the global, the global
00:25:46.760south and and the global south has a very different perspective on the Israel situation.
00:25:51.760So you're right that that is an interesting omission to be sure.
00:25:57.760Right. And of course, this is a situation where, you know, and he says again and again that, you know, the you know, it's it's and and you know, having spent time and obviously people know Tony's from that part of the world and born in the Soviet Union that to them, the word the word Nazi or the word racist or fascist hasn't become, you know, overused the way that it has here.
00:26:20.760I mean, if it had some cultural violence in just 30 years ago, 20 years ago, even even up to, I would say, Trump's initial run of 2016, these accusations were quite powerful.
00:26:32.760But then the problem was the Western media simply started labeling everything white supremacism.
00:26:38.760Showing up on time was white supremacy and drinking milk was white supremacy and all these different things.
00:26:44.760And so it eventually just kind of lost all meaning.
00:26:47.760However, in Russia, or at least in that part of the world, because people don't use these words and don't use these terms haphazardly, they do still carry a lot of weight potentially too much.
00:27:00.760I personally just watching that and looking at the body language of the situation, I think he genuinely believes that there is a problem with this in Ukraine, whether he's right or not, you know, anyone can debate that.
00:27:14.760Yeah, it's hard to say probably, you know, could be.
00:27:19.760But another point on the Israel thing.
00:27:21.760So he did not indulge in the opportunity to mention October 7th in the context of the whole anti-Semitism thing.
00:27:30.760But on the other side, maybe I'm reading too much into the Israel dynamic here, but on the other side, he did not mention Israel in the context of the conversation of lands should go back to their pre-World War II borders.
00:27:48.760So that could have been the other side.
00:27:52.760If he really wanted to throw a bone to the global south and to the, you know, the Palestinians, he could have said, well, you know, also Hungary, not only does Hungary have a right to Ukraine, but, you know, Palestine should go back to its, you know, its UN, you know, 1947 borders, or even before that, you know, he could have thrown that in and he didn't.
00:28:13.760So he kind of studiously avoided getting into that from either side, it seemed like.
00:28:19.760One of the interesting terms of phrase, and I haven't even really spent enough time digging
00:28:26.760into it, but he keeps talking about this theory of the golden billion, you know, in the golden
00:28:32.760So I started to kind of scratch the surface of that last night.
00:28:33.760And it essentially says that the elites of the world, because of the way the resources are scattered throughout the world right now, that the elites set up the world in such a way that only about 1 billion people can live in development at any one given time.
00:28:50.760And that if half the population of the world started to consume resources at the same pace, then essentially the world would collapse.
00:28:58.760It's a bit Malthusian in a sense, but it was interesting that he actually mentioned this a few times throughout the course of the discussion.
00:29:16.760And it seems like I'd have to go back and see the, you know, the context in which he's done it.
00:29:22.760But it seems like something like, you know, one of those global south type heuristics of saying, well, you know, it's the basically the west being the golden billion.
00:29:34.760And what was interesting though, the, the context that he used it, and I know we have only about a minute left, but the context is I'm sure I'm going to dig into this more as I, as I assume you will as well.
00:29:48.760So the framing is that just because these countries are up now doesn't mean it will always be this way.
00:29:57.760And of course he brings up the fall of Rome.
00:29:59.760He brings up the golden horde on Genghis Khan saying, hey, you know, this was the largest land empire, two of the largest empires in the world, and neither of which really exist anymore.
00:30:10.760And I think he's kind of, kind of attempting to describe the west as the current golden billion.
00:30:17.760Darren Beattie, Revolver News, always a pleasure.
00:36:28.760And this this is really is amazing to me so that you have.
00:36:31.760And look, like I look, I know that you are holding out some hope for this case, man.
00:36:35.760But when I heard that this venue got moved to Washington, D.C., I said, look, I got to put it in the same context of all the D.C. trials that I've I've sat through, whether it be General Flynn, whether it be Papadopoulos, whether it be Bannon, whether it be Navarro.
00:36:50.760And particularly through the voir dire, which is the jury selection in these cases.
00:36:57.760This was civil suit. But it's the same jury pool and the D.C. jury pool.
00:37:01.760I'm sorry. They are just not ever going to side with anyone who's associated with the right associated with Trump.
00:37:07.760By the way, I should I'd be remiss if I didn't say this, that Peter Navarro, by the way, just lost the ability to stay out pending appeal that that decision came out last night after the show.
00:37:20.760So this is a guy. He refused to speak to the Jan 6 committee.
00:37:25.760He was held in contempt of Congress. Now they are that he was sentenced to four months in prison.
00:37:29.760And they were saying that he must go behind bars even while he's appealing this thing.
00:37:34.760By the way, this isn't some like hardened, violent criminal.
00:37:37.760But of course, we know that D.C., when you're a hardened, violent criminal, they just let you back out on the street to kill more people.
00:37:42.760And the frustrating thing here is that Michael Mann did admit under oath he has yet to pay his attorneys and he is not indebted to them.
00:37:50.760So basically, he's saying someone else is paying the bill.
00:37:53.760We know there are lefty groups like the Climate Science Legal Defense Fund.
00:37:58.760They're fired. They're funded by leftist billionaires.
00:38:01.760So Michael Mann does not have to pay any money come out of pocket for this.
00:38:24.760Michael Mann didn't sue him in any of the Commonwealth states because all the Commonwealth nations, excuse me, because all the Commonwealth nations have a rule that in defamation cases, the loser has to pay the winner's attorney's fees.
00:38:37.760We need that rule in America, because otherwise, let's just sue each other nonstop if George Soros will pay the legal bills.
00:38:43.760And this is 15 years in the making, Jack.
00:38:45.760So what is the statute of limitation if George Soros was willing to pay your attorney's fees?
00:38:50.760It's just it's an aberration of justice.
00:38:53.760It sets a terrible precedent that we're not allowed to criticize climate.
00:38:57.760We're not allowed to criticize, like I said, covid.
00:39:00.760And who knows what our overlords next will determine is above criticism.
00:39:04.760And if you do, if you write a blog post on National Review 15 years ago, we're coming after you.
00:39:11.760Well, and that's the part that just really flies in the face of everything that we are talking about recently.
00:39:18.760You know, we say that we're the free country.
00:39:22.760People are you know, they were critical of of Tucker and Putin and saying, oh, well, you know, you're you're in Moscow talking about free speech.
00:40:29.760Yeah. The concern I have here is that, you know, you have big government colluding with the tech industry to censor speech.
00:40:36.760They don't like, especially as we've seen when it comes to covid and more and more when it comes to climate issues.
00:40:41.760And climate and covid are the foundation for hundreds of billions, if not trillions of dollars of spending, of profiteering, of control, exertion of control by a government.
00:40:52.760So if the science you're not allowed to criticize, you can't criticize anything.
00:41:14.760I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:41:18.760All right, Jack Posobiec back live. Human Events Daily.
00:41:21.760Daniel Turner is our guest. Power the Future.
00:41:23.760You got a new op ed in The New York Post where you announced that you are filing a lawsuit of your own, not against a climate scientist, but potentially one of the priests of the of the climate change agenda.
00:41:37.760The great proselytizer, John Kerry. Why are you suing John Kerry?
00:41:42.760John Kerry is a public servant. And as a public servant and you know this, having you spent your time in government, you don't have secret missions, secret meetings.
00:41:50.760Maybe you did because I know you worked in intelligence, but someone like John Kerry is not clandestine.
00:41:55.760He's not in the CIA. He's not at defense.
00:41:59.760So John Kerry has refused to tell the Congress and in our case, using the Freedom of Information Act, refuses to disclose very simple facts like who's on his staff and how are they hired and what are their names and what's his mandate and what are his goals for his office and what's his budget.
00:42:17.760John Kerry's just said, I'm not sharing that information. I don't have to.
00:42:21.760The Freedom of Information Act exists for this purposes.
00:42:24.760And the reason why this lawsuit is important is because we're all on the downstream of Biden's green agenda. Right.
00:42:30.760Three years in, look at your food prices, your grocery prices, your utility bills.
00:42:34.760And they celebrate that gas has come down and it has. But it's still a dollar more a gallon than when Biden took office.
00:42:41.760All of this is the green agenda. The green agenda is hatched in John Kerry's office.
00:42:46.760And we have a right to know who he's meeting with, what outside groups, what international groups, because we are feeling that green agenda.
00:42:53.760John Kerry can say, I'm not telling you. So lawsuit was our only option.
00:43:00.760And so the the goal here then specifically looking at this and Kerry, of course, I believe he's actually outgoing in terms of this.
00:43:07.760And the the great the artistic John Podesta is going to be coming in to that same office.
00:43:13.760Do you think do you think that the new administration there will have any will have any change in the status or and really what is it that you're trying to find by getting all this information out?
00:43:25.760Well, everyone in government has meetings and they talk to outside groups.
00:43:29.760They talk to groups back in the day like mine. We have a right to know who John Kerry's meeting with.
00:43:34.760We have a right to know what money he has and what checks he has written.
00:43:38.760And the fact that he refuses to tell us that is pretty shady.
00:43:41.760John Podesta is going to come in with an even larger checkbook because he's been controlling the so-called slush fund from the Inflation Reduction Act.
00:43:49.760And that's, you know, the Wall Street Journal says could be upwards of a trillion dollars in unappropriated funds.
00:43:56.760Who's knocking on John Podesta's door?
00:44:01.760And again, when you are a public servant working on behalf of the American people with American tax dollars, you are not allowed to have these private meetings.
00:44:10.760You're not allowed to have a private life. And look, even I mentioned the defense, but there is still some caveats.
00:44:15.760Look at all the problem that the secretary of defense got into saying, oh, no, I just didn't want to tell you.
00:44:20.760You don't have the right to not tell us you're going to the hospital.
00:44:23.760You don't have the right to tell us you're not going to disclose what conversations you're having.
00:44:28.760And so, yeah, the green stuff is always shady, right? The money is shady. The groups are shady.
00:44:35.760And John Kerry cannot hide behind. I don't want to tell you what I'm doing.
00:44:39.760So, yeah, trust me, I don't want to have a lawsuit. Lawsuits are expensive.
00:44:43.760Ask Mark Stein. They're cumbersome. John Kerry's got a lot more resources because he's got the government.
00:44:49.760But we have to. We have to know who he's dealing with because the entire green agenda is based on lies.
00:44:56.760And it's trillions of dollars that we've wasted because of people like John Kerry and they can't hide any longer.
00:45:04.760Well, and you look at some of these situations out there that where the green agenda comes up and they say we're losing it, we're running out of all of this.
00:45:14.760And there was a term that that Putin actually used in the interview last night, and I thought it was really interesting.
00:45:21.760And I mentioned Darren Beattie and it actually had to do this.
00:45:26.760It is this theory of the golden billion and essentially that all the resources of the world can only support about one billion people at a time.
00:45:37.760And I was like, wow, the president of Russia believes in that. I just don't know if that's true, that this idea that there's an incredibly finite amount of resources in the entire world specifically.
00:45:50.760Obviously, we're talking about someone who's got control of some of the largest oil and gas resources in the world.
00:45:55.760But I thought it was really interesting to hear him talk about it that way.
00:45:58.760I don't know if he meant it potentially in that in that sense. But I mean, do you think that's right?
00:46:04.760Do you think that there's only a limited amount of resources in the world that can only sustain about a billion people at a time?
00:46:09.760No, I think we have so many resources. The problem is we can't bring them to the surface.
00:46:13.760I mean, you went to Alaska. I know you've been there.
00:46:16.760You know how many resources in Alaska, but they're underground and they can't be tapped.
00:46:20.760The Congresswoman from Alaska, Mary Peltola, who's up for reelection.
00:46:25.760She's been tweeting about how Alaska needs more renewables.
00:46:29.760I was in Alaska last week. It was negative twenty six degrees.
00:46:32.760Renewables were producing no energy whatsoever.
00:46:36.760The only thing keeping Alaska alive were fossil fuels.
00:46:39.760And here's your Congresswoman saying no more fossil fuels.
00:46:49.760He's very much a politician in the line of the vague.
00:46:53.760But but how do you have a member of Congress who looks at her state and all of the vast resources in the state and says,
00:47:00.760no, what we're going to do is we're going to depend upon China and Washington, D.C.
00:47:05.760and build solar panels and wind turbines, which, by the way, as she was tweeting this, we're doing absolutely nothing to help the people of Alaska.
00:47:13.760So I don't believe there are limited resources.
00:47:21.760Biden and John Kerry wants to shut down all of our coal.
00:47:25.760And by the way, when you say can't bring them, you don't mean you don't mean that there's like a physical issue that we can't do it or a technological issue.
00:48:02.760And look at our look at our energy situation.
00:48:05.760You know, it's interesting to thinking about, you know, thinking about the Russian context as well, because it's it's Putin who goes in, who nationalizes all the Siberian gas and oil infrastructure when he first gets into power.
