Jack Posobiec delivers the latest from CPACLIVE from the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, D.C. on February 23, 2020, where President Donald Trump was joined by media personalities Joy Ann Reed, Mark Hamill, and Alex Blumberg.
00:00:58.080They're in response, of course, to the death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny.
00:01:02.240And also, time to mark the two-year point of Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
00:01:07.340The House of Representatives must pass the bipartisan national security bill.
00:01:11.200The bill provides urgent funding for Ukraine.
00:01:14.100And it passed overwhelmingly in the Senate.
00:01:16.540And there's no question, none, none, if the speaker called for a vote in the House, it would pass easily today.
00:01:22.920I'm here today because I know that to achieve victory in this fight, just like in the battles of the past, we still need the hand of our Lord and the grace of almighty God.
00:01:34.180There's many different groups orbiting Trump.
00:01:35.760But the thing that unites them as Christian nationalists, not Christians, by the way, because Christian nationalists is very different, is that they believe that our rights as Americans, as all human beings, don't come from any earthly authority.
00:02:29.020As historian Nancy McLean writes in The New Republic, lurking behind the full frontal assault by Donald Trump and his enablers lies a far more far reaching threat.
00:02:39.800If the Republicans gain control of both houses of Congress, expect a state authorized constitutional convention to eviscerate core rights and protections most Americans hold dear.
00:02:51.200Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, live from Washington, D.C., CPAC, with today is February 23rd, 2024, Anno Domini.
00:03:07.040Ladies and gentlemen of the media, to Joy Ann Reed, to Mark Hamill, to MSNBC, to the Washington Compost, to the failing New York Times, and dare I say, the former Vice.com.
00:04:26.840You dare say that I am the one who's instituting a dictatorship when your regime is the one that is seeking to strip Donald Trump from the ballot.
00:04:38.400Your regime is the one that is seeking and has arrested Donald Trump not one, not two, not three, but four times.
00:04:49.260You've given them unequal treatment and unequal sentences.
00:04:55.020You're trying to put people like Dr. Peter Navarro, Steve Bannon, all behind bars.
00:05:00.540And you have the gall, the absolute gall, to accuse us of being the ones who institute a dictatorship as you are trying to make Donald Trump die in prison the way Navalny died in prison.
00:05:16.120Well, I have something to say to you, Joy Ann Reed and MSNBC and Mark Hamill, apparently.
00:05:28.300I guess he just can't get his lightsaber up.
00:05:30.120But, you know, you know, folks, you know, as Master Yoda once said, every once in a while, there is another.
00:05:39.680And this time around, folks, that other's name is Donald J. Trump.
00:05:45.300And when I say there will be another January 6th, I mean there will be another January 6th when Donald Trump is certified president of these United States once more.
00:06:05.040Ladies and gentlemen, one of the best ways that you can support us here at Human Events and the work that we do is subscribing to us on our Rumble channel.
00:06:50.680It's because I start my day with a hot America First cup of blackout coffee.
00:06:54.680100% America, blackout coffee, 100% committed to conservative values.
00:06:59.820From sourcing the beans to the roasting process, customer support and shipping, they embody true American values, except no compromise on taste or quality.
00:07:12.500It powers our fight against the Democrats and their democracy.
00:07:16.460So if you want to support blackout coffee, the businesses that support America and it is family owned, make sure you go to blackoutcoffee.com slash POSO.
00:07:24.640Use promo code POSO20 for 20% off your first order.
00:07:47.120And then do we, do we want to, do we have a quick, do we have time for a quick special, crashing human events?
00:07:54.760Crashing human events, ladies and gentlemen, the next, we got the next attorney general and the person, the person who will confirm the attorney general, it is the next senator from the state of Arizona, Carrie Lake.
00:08:07.580I don't want to ruin her Senate career.
00:08:36.200And we're having the most consequential leader of our time and possibly one of the most consequential leaders in human history, President Donald J. Trump.
00:08:44.860This is where news is happening and this is where the conservative movement is being molded and grown, frankly, to go out and save America.
00:08:52.100Now, President Bukele said last night, and it was an incredible speech where he said the theme of CPAC this year is where CPAC is where globalism goes to die.
00:09:02.160But he said that in El Salvador, it has already been killed.
00:09:07.660If you're elected to the United States Senate this year, can we as a country finally pull ourselves out of this globalist system?
00:10:16.920We're watching these nations where it looked like all hope was lost and they've turned things around quickly.
00:10:21.960And Malay down in Argentina slashes his administrative state, is shuttering departments, and all of a sudden they have a budget surplus and he's only been in office a couple of weeks.
00:10:37.000When we are not pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into endless wars overseas, when we're not doing that, think about what we could have done with that money here at home.
00:10:47.080We could have solved the water crisis in the West.
00:10:52.520We could have given Americans who want good jobs but don't have the training job training.
00:10:57.520Or for goodness sake, we could have returned a whole lot of money back to the taxpayers.
00:11:01.020So we just have to stop this, I call it money laundering, because it's pouring overseas into countries to start wars, and we have no accountability where those dollars are going.
00:11:10.720Carrie, where can people go to follow you, to get involved with the campaign?
00:15:22.840We have a God-given right to protest our government.
00:15:25.960And it is only illegal to object to presidential elections in third-world Marxist hellholes like North Korea, right?
00:15:35.100And that's where the Democrats are taking this country.
00:15:37.800What happened on January 6th, it was a lawful protest permitted by the National Park Service that devolved into a riot.
00:15:45.220And what the Democrats, what Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, and his Justice Department are doing is they're using January 6th as a pretext to round up political opposition and throw them in prison.
00:16:00.000And how ironic is it, by the way, that here we are, and I know you were here last night as well as myself,
00:16:04.880that the president of El Salvador comes to the United States to lecture us about our issues of losing freedom, our issues of losing liberty.
00:16:16.580The whole world is upside down when El Salvador, and God bless, by the way, President Bukele and everything that he's done down there,
00:16:24.060if they can figure it out, we can figure it out.
00:16:26.980And the number one thing, the number one thing beyond all of this, not only justice for the Jan Sixers, but they are trying to put President Trump behind bars.
00:16:39.040They're trying to strip him of the ballot.
00:16:40.740If you want to talk about anti-democracy, I don't think what else you could do other than that.
00:16:45.800Yeah, nothing screams democracy like impeaching someone twice for nonsense, indicting him four times for non-crimes,
00:16:54.640trying to throw him in prison for 700 years, trying to bankrupt his business for non-fraud,
00:17:01.080or having some nut job like Gene Carroll make up allegations against him.
00:17:06.080And when that all backfires, we're just going to take him off the ballot.
00:17:08.840Nothing screams democracy like taking the leading presidential candidate off the ballot like the Democrats are trying to do to Donald Trump.
00:17:17.120If this were another country, we would sanction that country for what Joe Biden and Democrats are doing to Trump,
00:17:24.520his top aides, his lawyers, his supporters, parents, Christians.
00:29:14.120Open borders, $34 trillion in debt, $2.5 trillion annual national deficits.
00:29:21.620Your government might label you a domestic violent extremist if you buy guns or Bibles or,
00:29:27.800heaven forbid, show up at a school board meeting or attend mass too often.
00:29:33.080This sounds a hell of a lot more like chaos to me because your chaos doesn't matter to a lot of the folks working 10 miles from here.
00:29:43.680Interest rates on credit cards and car loans are skyrocketing.
00:29:47.680Home ownership, the central thesis of the American dream to our parents and grandparents is now a mirage to the millennials.
00:29:56.880They say inflation is down, but prices are still up.
00:29:59.980I never thought I'd live to the day where I'd spend $11 on a bag of carrots.
00:30:05.980Chaos for lawmakers is having to write budgets and take tough votes.
00:30:10.480The chaos they are willing to inflict on your life is changing things for the worse.
00:30:16.580I actually want orderly things like budgets that balance, single subject spending bills, term limits, block grant Medicaid, drill for oil, export liquefied natural gas to anyone willing to buy it in dollars.
00:30:32.580Demand that I don't know if the government wants to spy on Americans, they should have to get a warrant and we should secure the southern border.
00:30:41.680Does that sound like chaos or the orderly administration of this country that you deserve?
00:30:49.680Now, Democrats, they believed in these things some point between 20 years and like 20 minutes ago.
00:30:56.680Now they are the party of forever wars abroad, high prices, low T and reverse racism here at home.
00:31:05.780And by the way, speaking of racism, if it is not racist to ask for an ID for a hunting license or a fishing license, then it is not racist to ask for an ID to vote in any election in any jurisdiction in a free country, the United States of America.
00:31:23.780So I've noticed there are like two plays that House Republicans right now seem to be really good at running, the punt and the block.
00:31:37.880And granted, I've thrown a few Hail Marys into the playbook, but the punt and the block seem to be what they're all in on.
00:31:45.880We blocked the terrible Langford amnesty bill in the United States Senate.
00:31:52.880But we punted on needed needed spending cuts.
00:31:55.580We blocked Mitch McConnell's desire to deficit spend to fund the wants of nations oceans away.
00:32:01.980But we punted on chronically needed reforms to the abuse of the FISA process where Americans were being spied on.
00:32:11.280We blocked more money to Ukraine for now, and we punted Kevin McCarthy, who authorized $115 billion to Ukraine that we now see slushing around the money laundering capitals of the world.
00:32:25.380We shouldn't have any foreign aid to any other country without corresponding cuts to our own bloated federal budget.
00:32:35.480If you want to send aid to Israel, fine, pay for it by defunding the United Nations.
00:32:41.480I want the U.N. to be zeroed out in our budget.
00:32:45.880The U.S. should be out of the U.N., and the U.N. should be out of the U.S.
00:33:11.180You should be allowed to oppose the ruling party in your country without risk of poison or prison or death.
00:33:17.680But I would remind everyone, especially the journalists in the back, that Ukraine's Zelensky imprisoned an American journalist who then died in prison, Gonzalo Lira.
00:33:30.980Not only that, but Zelensky supports outlawing an entire religion, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
00:33:36.780And he just canceled Ukraine's presidential elections.
00:33:41.080Now, call me old-fashioned, but I actually prefer democracies that hold elections.
00:33:47.580To be clear, Putin is no friend of ours.
00:33:52.980He partners with adversaries like Iran and is opposed to America's interests, but realism in our foreign policy means being clear-eyed.
00:34:01.580It is being anti-war, not anti-American.
00:34:08.280Can the neoconservative followers of John Bolton and Liz Cheney and Nikki Haley say the same?
00:34:14.480And what's really left unsaid in this Ukraine aid debate is that Europe's fecklessness is a direct result of them becoming national security welfare queens largely at your expense.
00:34:28.480Our European allies, which consist of some very wealthy nations, underspend on their own defense because they dupe you into paying for much of it.
00:34:38.580Spain sends less on its military than we do on the Department of Interior.
00:34:44.580France spends less money on their military than we do on the Department of Labor.
00:34:48.480I think they're allergic to labor in France.
00:34:51.980With friends like these, do we really need to be searching behind every sand dude or in every Central Asian cave for more enemies?
00:34:59.280We went straight from a welfare program for Afghan poppy farmers to this?
00:35:04.280America is not the world's police force and we are not the world's piggy bank.
00:35:52.980We all know it is time to take Grandpa's keys away.
00:35:57.180And he just keeps getting meaner and weirder about it.
00:36:00.380What else can explain allowing the world's prisons to be emptied and sent across our border?
00:36:06.780Biden is aiding and abetting the invasion of our nation by thugs, Islamic extremists and Chinese spies.
00:36:14.880Think about these a porous border, an unending stream of money supporting a forever war.
00:36:19.980These are great, but man, are there simple solutions like not sending billions of dollars to corrupt countries and finishing the wall and endeavoring upon the largest deportation effort in American history.
00:36:32.180Word is, I now have problems with the ethics committee, which seems really odd to me because I'm the one screaming loudest for actual ethics reforms.
00:36:51.580Members of Congress should have a lifetime ban on becoming lobbyists or registered foreign agents.
00:36:59.780We should make it impermissible and disallowed by rule for anyone to accept a campaign donation from a lobbyist or a special interest pack.
00:37:13.780And for the same reason you don't let the umpire bet on the game, members of Congress should not be allowed to trade individual stocks.
00:37:24.780How about the ethics committee take up those reforms?
00:37:29.780Now the Republican ethics chairman Michael Guest not only voted for the January 6th commission, he has become a brilliant stock trader while in office.
00:37:43.780He knew exactly the right time to buy online gambling stocks.
00:37:49.780His purchase in evolution gaming securities netted him a hefty 36% gain, not too shabby.
00:37:55.780Now I'm not saying that this is insider trading, but this monetary affair is perhaps the most suspicious I've seen since Bonnie Willis and Nathan Wade.
00:40:39.780And we were on a mission to deliver a letter from one of the speakers to speak about that very point, how our rights do come from God.
00:40:48.780And we were able to get on stage and deliver the message from Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, in which he elaborated at length about how this is true.
00:40:57.780And none other than to deliver that speech was Dr. Taylor Marshall, our friend.
00:41:03.780By the way, Kev, you mentioned Friday and Lent, right? You ready for this?
00:41:25.780Look, our founding fathers, this shows you how bad the education system has gotten in our country, that our founding fathers believed in something called natural law.
00:41:37.780They believed that our rights, of course, come from our God.
00:44:43.780That is why our government was founded when it was founded.
00:44:46.780And if we need to push that reset button because the current occupants of those institutions have gone a little bit too far, then we're going to press that reset button to get us back to the words of our Constitution.
00:45:00.780And, I mean, don't take it from me or Jack.
00:45:03.780We're just two guys from Philly, right?
00:46:41.780But what I would say is that next January 6th, if there are any issues with this election, then I would like to hear them out from the Democrat side or the Republican side.
00:46:53.780We will have our day in the Senate, we will have our hearing, and we will restore the true American Republic.
00:47:32.780When you're not even allowed to walk around with your cell phone out in the United States capital, our nation's capital, to view the inauguration of the President without soldiers with rifles and M4s coming up to you and saying, you know, papers please.
