00:00:39.200 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.040 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:49.160 Christ is king.
00:00:50.180 Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar won the primary in Minnesota's fifth congressional district.
00:00:55.660 Omar won with over 56% of the vote.
00:00:58.760 You can go back and you can look at the rise of other fascist governments, and it's the playbook.
00:01:04.460 It is the playbook that you lie so much that you numb the media, you numb the masses, you numb people, and soon they give up on trying to figure out what the truth is.
00:01:18.540 The governor of a Russian region on Ukraine's border declared a state of emergency as a nearby Ukrainian offensive into Russia enters its second week.
00:01:27.620 Ukraine says it has seized more territory in the Kursk region.
00:01:31.140 Its forces have also captured some Russian soldiers.
00:01:34.060 The U.S. is rushing to prevent a potential regional war in the Mideast.
00:01:38.840 It's trying to calm tensions between Iran and Israel.
00:01:44.620 If they escalate, the U.S. and Iranian proxies in other countries might end up involved.
00:01:50.540 The Biden administration is asking Congress to approve a $20 billion weapons deal for Israel.
00:01:56.620 That equipment wouldn't reach the ally for years.
00:01:59.120 But Israel's minister of defense says it sends a message now.
00:02:03.240 Let's have a look at Kamala Harris' campaign team because they've been caught out secretly editing news headlines in Google search to paint her in a more favorable light.
00:02:13.540 I mean, this is literally fake news.
00:02:15.560 They accused Donald Trump of fake news, but this actually is fake news.
00:02:18.620 This morning, a migrant from Haiti who was previously indicted on suspicion of raping a 15-year-old in Rockland was arrested by federal immigration officials.
00:02:27.300 Corey Alvarez is accused of sexually assaulting the teen at the Comfort Inn on Hingham Street on March 13th, according to the Plymouth County DA's office.
00:02:35.720 The Comfort Inn was part of the government program to help house migrant families.
00:02:39.060 The U.S. and the U.S.
00:03:09.060 Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, live from southern Maine.
00:03:18.420 Today is August 14th, 2021.
00:03:21.100 And today is, of course, the three-year anniversary.
00:03:25.140 We're very excited to celebrate the Taliban taking over Afghanistan yet again.
00:03:31.700 And because it's a three-year anniversary, they decided to hold a wonderful parade of all of the military equipment that Joe Biden gifted to them.
00:03:42.740 And Kamala Harris was perfectly fine.
00:03:44.900 Guys, play the audio again.
00:03:47.060 Let's play the clip again.
00:03:47.900 Let's watch.
00:03:49.640 Let's watch.
00:03:50.240 Go ahead.
00:03:50.640 We want to hear it.
00:03:53.200 We want to hear it, folks.
00:03:54.380 We want to hear all of it.
00:03:55.480 The wonderful parade of the Taliban right there in downtown Kabul.
00:04:01.240 We remember this is three years ago when the Biden administration, the Biden-Harris administration, needs to have them up there.
00:04:11.400 Okay, we've got it.
00:04:12.140 Let's play it.
00:04:12.640 Let's play it, guys.
00:04:13.340 Play the parade again.
00:04:14.100 Let's take it out.
00:04:14.760 Let's go to the parade.
00:04:44.760 Wow, just look at them go there, folks.
00:04:50.860 Just amazing.
00:04:51.840 It's incredible to see the plucky resilience of the Taliban fighters.
00:04:57.480 Just amazing when you'll think of all that they've been through over the years to fight back and take back their country.
00:05:05.840 Folks, it's in your face, okay?
00:05:08.160 This is completely being thrown in your face.
00:05:12.040 This is what Kamala Harris and Joe Biden and Tim Waltz, by the way, is a guy who claimed that he served over in the battlefield in the war on terror.
00:05:23.080 He claims that he served in the war on terror.
00:05:25.640 He wasn't actually there.
00:05:27.040 He cut and ran when his unit was deploying to Iraq.
00:05:31.700 And now here we are, what happened in the actual war on terror under Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
00:05:38.080 Oh, we handed over all of the military equipment to the Taliban when the disastrous withdrawal, when 13 Americans were killed in Kabul three years ago today.
00:05:53.440 Three years ago.
00:05:54.140 So the Taliban, remember that?
00:05:55.400 They're throwing it in your face.
00:05:56.640 They're saying, hey, Joe Biden, thanks for the equipment.
00:06:00.120 Thanks for the Bradleys.
00:06:01.700 Thanks for the Humvees.
00:06:02.780 Thanks for all of it.
00:06:03.740 By the way, thanks for letting us have the country back after we killed so many Americans, including the 13 honored dead of Abbey Gate.
00:06:13.860 This is the world under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
00:06:18.540 This is the war that Tim Walz was more than happy to let you think that he served in.
00:06:26.300 Runs around calling himself Operation Enduring Freedom Bet.
00:06:29.300 Operation Enduring Freedom Bet.
00:06:30.880 Operation Enduring Freedom Bet.
00:06:32.420 Don't you dare denigrate my service.
00:06:34.620 Mind your own darn business.
00:06:36.020 Don't you dare denigrate.
00:06:36.980 I said, no, we're pointing out the fact that you lied about your service, Tim.
00:06:41.100 You lied.
00:06:42.080 You know, technically, I'm an OEF vet as well.
00:06:44.760 But I don't talk about it that way because I didn't serve in Afghanistan.
00:06:48.300 I served Gitmo.
00:06:49.640 That's why I say I served the Gitmo.
00:06:52.160 Wow.
00:06:52.680 It's an incredible, you know, it's an incredible concept.
00:06:56.040 It's called telling the truth.
00:06:58.080 But Democrats tell the truth challenge impossible.
00:07:00.880 So, all right, folks, we got J.D. Vance coming up soon here.
00:07:04.620 He's going to be speaking in Michigan.
00:07:06.060 We're going to take that live.
00:07:07.800 And then afterwards, depending on the timing, we're going to shift that around a little bit.
00:07:12.060 We're blowing the brake because we got a lot of moving parts.
00:07:14.680 Afterwards, I hope that we have time for this, and I expect that we will, that Rebecca Leverens, the praying grandma of J6, will be joining us here on Human Events Daily for a special, very special interview.
00:07:30.260 After she was fined over $100,000 for a misdemeanor, $100,000 for praying for her country on the steps of the United States Capitol, $100,000 for prayer.
00:07:51.380 It's the most expensive prayer in the history of the world.
00:07:54.980 Understand this, folks.
00:07:58.520 This is what the Biden-Harris regime is really up to.
00:08:02.600 And more to the point, it's not Biden and Harris that are in charge of this thing.
00:08:09.240 The regime is in charge.
00:08:11.040 Google, now, with the fake ad trends set up to work with Kamala Harris to make it look like all of this is legitimate news, but actually it's planted by the Kamala campaign.
00:08:24.140 So, OK, so Google is on their side.
00:08:27.100 The DOJ is on their side.
00:08:29.700 We've got political prisoners.
00:08:30.960 We're going at $100,000 for a praying grandma, which, by the way, I was sharing her gives and go very, very early on this case.
00:08:39.940 And I'm proud to announce that this is something completely took off and, you know, wasn't something that was just me.
00:08:47.480 A lot of people totally went in on this because it was legitimately insane that they would go after her the way that they did.
00:08:56.240 And she's raised enough money to at least clear that fine.
00:09:01.160 But I say we keep going.
00:09:02.620 I say we keep going in terms of this to send a message to the regime that if you are going to come for the praying grandmothers, that you have to go through every single one of us first.
00:09:14.980 We have 84 days left until victory, folks.
00:09:18.700 84 days.
00:09:19.960 What are you doing to get involved?
00:09:21.720 I just led a statewide training of Trump Force 47 last night in North Carolina.
00:09:27.860 I did one in Pennsylvania the other day.
00:09:29.640 We've got a bunch more lined up.
00:09:31.400 Trump Force 47, are you getting involved?
00:09:33.740 The Pennsylvania Chase, are you getting involved?
00:09:35.480 Turning Point Action.
00:09:37.140 They're doing the 100 contacts, 100 ballots.
00:09:41.400 So it's the challenge, the 100 challenge.
00:09:44.040 Are you going to be able to get that ready?
00:09:47.220 It looks like I can see J.D. and it looks like his wife Usha are coming out there in Michigan.
00:09:53.040 So we'll go to them as soon as they come out.
00:09:56.220 But, folks, understand it's about action, action, action.
00:10:00.540 Don't listen to all this nonsense.
00:10:02.280 Oh, the poll here and the common momentum and all next week they're going to be up in Chicago.
00:10:06.760 La, la, la.
00:10:07.460 No, no.
00:10:08.740 Get to work.
00:10:10.020 Let's go to J.D.
00:10:10.660 J.D., J.D., J.D., J.D., J.D., J.D., J.D.
00:10:16.440 Please, please, please.
00:10:17.580 Thank you.
00:10:17.940 Thank you all.
00:10:18.480 Please.
00:10:19.300 It is great to be here in Michigan.
00:10:20.980 It's a little hot today, but it's a beautiful state.
00:10:23.760 All right.
00:10:24.200 Let me talk a little bit about what we're going to do to take this country back.
00:10:28.520 We're going to take back the White House.
00:10:30.080 We're going to restore American manufacturing.
00:10:32.280 We're going to restore a whole country.
00:10:33.820 And it's going to start right here in the state of Michigan.
00:10:41.240 Now, I love Byron Center.
00:10:42.620 I've been here just about a couple hours.
00:10:45.200 But Byron Center has been cast aside.
00:10:48.200 And a lot of places in this country have been cast aside by America's ruling class in Washington, D.C.
00:10:54.140 Now, politicians come into places like Michigan.
00:10:56.100 They say nice things, but they crush our industries, they offshore our jobs, and they undercut American wages with illegal labor.
00:11:06.460 You, my friends, have been betrayed.
00:11:09.540 And the people who have been doing the betraying have gotten rich off of this country's decline.
00:11:14.920 And it's time to call them out, and it's time to kick them out of office.
00:11:17.700 Now, when Kamala Harris raised the price of American energy, Michigan suffered.
00:11:30.040 You suffered.
00:11:31.260 Good American jobs suffered.
00:11:33.000 But you know who made a lot of money?
00:11:34.540 Kamala Harris' donors.
00:11:35.960 The people who benefit from some of these green energy scams where they do things like, you know, build windmills in saltwater off the coast of Nantucket.
00:11:45.120 And, of course, they fall apart and get washed up ashore, right?
00:11:47.760 Crazy stuff.
00:11:49.240 Now, when she forced Americans, using your tax dollars, by the way, to buy EVs made in China, it made Michigan a whole lot poorer, but it made the green energy lobby a whole lot richer.
00:12:01.580 And this is a theme with Kamala Harris.
00:12:03.220 I don't know if you noticed, but every time she makes a decision that makes us poorer or makes our country weaker, there is somebody standing behind her who benefits.
00:12:13.220 Just for example, when she let in millions of illegal aliens, it made our communities less safe, but it did give the Democrats a lot of voters.
00:12:22.980 And they're trying to give illegal aliens the right to vote in major cities all across this country.
00:12:27.520 Now, here's the thing.
00:12:32.180 On November the 5th, this great betrayal from Kamala Harris, it's going to stop because we're going to elect Donald J. Trump, president of the United States.
00:12:40.060 Now, I grew up in a town not all that different from Byron Center, and I watched in my own community as jobs were sent overseas.
00:12:53.220 And, of course, it's not just people's checkbooks that suffer when they lose a good manufacturing job or they lose a good job in any industry.
00:13:01.560 I remember seeing friends whose parents never fought but start to have their marriages unravel under financial stress from a lost job.
00:13:11.120 I saw families torn apart as China built its middle class on the back of the American middle class.
00:13:17.140 And as much as things were sometimes tough in my hometown, and I know sometimes it's often tough in Byron Center, I was one of the lucky ones.
00:13:26.260 I managed to achieve my American dream.
00:13:28.720 I managed to build a life because I had a mamaw who was tough as nails.
00:13:35.940 I don't know if...
00:13:37.100 Thank you.
00:13:39.820 She was my grandmother.
00:13:41.240 She was my guardian angel, and she had a foul mouth on her.
00:13:44.360 She was a good person, but she had a foul mouth on her.
00:13:47.140 And I remember when I was a little kid, we were probably five or six years old, we had a lot of family in eastern Kentucky.
00:13:53.240 We have any Appalachian-connected people here in Byron Center?
00:13:56.540 More than a few.
00:13:58.880 Yeah.
00:13:59.860 Going down 75 to visit Kentucky and east Tennessee.
00:14:02.520 I know that story.
00:14:03.540 I remember I was taking one of those trips myself, and I remember there was a guy.
00:14:07.900 My aunt was driving.
00:14:09.160 My mamaw was in the passenger seat, and I was in the back seat.
00:14:12.240 There must have been...
00:14:13.440 Somebody got cut off or something because this guy was driving like crazy.
00:14:16.720 He was cutting us off.
00:14:17.760 He was in a motorcycle, actually.
00:14:18.940 He was flipping us off.
00:14:20.280 And you could tell he was just in a bad mood.
00:14:22.440 And my aunt was telling me this story recently.
00:14:24.360 She said, J.D., you remember what happened next?
00:14:26.380 And I said, yeah, I do.
00:14:27.920 I remember that mamaw reached underneath her car seat, pulled out a .44 Magnum, and tapped it on the window.
00:14:32.200 And that was the end of the aggressive driving on the highways of eastern Kentucky.
00:14:38.480 But that woman, by the grace of God, I had her in my life, and I was able to achieve my American dream.
00:14:45.520 I just wanted to be a good husband and father.
00:14:47.160 I wanted to be able to give my kids the things that I didn't have when I was growing up in a poor family in Middletown, Ohio.
00:14:52.680 And I was able to do it, yes, because of my mamaw, but also because this is the greatest country in the world.
00:15:00.340 The American dream is still real.
00:15:02.180 And we are here to fight, to protect it, and to build upon it.
00:15:06.280 Every single day, that's what we're going to do.
00:15:08.080 Now, one of the things that bothers me about our opponent in this race, Kamala Harris, she pretends to stand for normal Americans.
00:15:16.360 She pretends to stand for their jobs, for the education of their children.
00:15:20.420 But it is normal Americans, we know this, who suffer the most when politicians like Kamala Harris fail to do their job.
00:15:27.820 You know, I remember my mamaw negotiating with somebody for Meals on Wheels.
00:15:33.080 She was trying to get that person to give her more food so that she could share some more with me.
00:15:38.080 And I think about that story, and I think about that moment in the context of this grocery affordability crisis that's affecting our people.
00:15:46.220 It is people like my grandmother who suffer the most when food and rent become unaffordable for normal people.
00:15:52.820 And this November, we're going to turn the page, my friends, on a generation of failed leadership.
00:15:59.620 We're going to make America great again, and we're going to do it by electing Donald J. Trump, President of the United States.
00:16:08.080 Now that's the most important thing, of course, is the top of the ticket, because we all know the president controls so much in this country.
00:16:18.760 But we're also going to need a lot of help up and down the balance.
00:16:21.680 So I want to introduce a few people who are great Michiganders, who are great American patriots, and they are fighting every day for you and for this state.
00:16:29.820 I want to start out with Michigan Senate Republican leader Eric Nesbitt.
00:16:33.920 Where's Eric?
00:16:35.460 There's Eric right here.
00:16:36.460 A beautiful family, by the way.
00:16:37.740 Two beautiful kids.
00:16:42.020 We have a Republican candidate for Michigan's 3rd District.
00:16:44.940 And I understand Paul Hudson's going to win this race.
00:16:46.760 Right, Paul?
00:16:47.360 Where's Paul?
00:16:50.540 There's Paul right here.
00:16:51.520 We've got Representative Brian Mast, the great Brian Mast.
00:16:59.260 Super 5, Brian.
00:17:00.280 Thank you, man.
00:17:02.260 We've got Representative John Molinare.
00:17:05.300 Where's John?
00:17:06.840 There's John right there.
00:17:07.860 Did I get your name right, John?
00:17:09.460 Close enough?
00:17:10.540 Close enough.
00:17:12.460 And we have got a great guy running who's going to be the next senator from the great state of Michigan, Mike Rogers.
00:17:18.320 Where's Mike?
00:17:19.020 There he is.
00:17:19.800 Now, let's just compare the record of failure of Kamala Harris with the record of success of Donald J. Trump.
00:17:31.860 President Trump created the strongest economy in history, at least within living memory of this country.
00:17:38.820 Before the pandemic, in four years, America gained 7 million new jobs.
00:17:44.140 Isn't that crazy?
00:17:44.840 7 million new jobs in just four years.
00:17:47.500 Unemployment dropped to the lowest rate in 50 years.
00:17:52.780 We lifted more than 10 million people off of welfare, and household income soared to a new record.
00:17:58.960 And after losing, in the previous two administrations, one Democrat, one Republican, we lost 60,000 American manufacturing jobs.
00:18:08.120 60,000 factories under the two previous administrations, and under four short years of President Trump's leadership, we built 12,000 new factories.
00:18:16.900 That is what we can achieve when America's leaders put the citizens of America first.
00:18:27.500 Now, after COVID, President Trump set America on the path to a powerful, inflation-free recovery.
00:18:34.060 All Kamala Harris had to do was leave it alone.
00:18:38.380 And by the way, while we're on the topic of Kamala Harris, we've got some of our friends in the media.
00:18:42.900 I just can't quite get over how dishonest the American media is about Kamala Harris.
00:18:48.400 Isn't that the craziest thing?
00:18:49.580 Now, we have to remember, for three and a half years, for three and a half years, people like Elisa Slotkin, who's running for Senate here in Michigan,
00:19:00.400 and Democratic leaders all across the country, they would say things, and the American media would back them up,
00:19:06.480 that President Biden, for three and a half years, he's as sharp as he's ever been.
00:19:09.780 He's sharp as a tack.
00:19:11.540 Remember that?
00:19:13.000 The American media acted for three and a half years like this guy was Albert Einstein.
00:19:16.320 And now they want to tell us that Kamala Harris is the second coming of Abraham Lincoln.
00:19:20.460 We don't buy it.
00:19:21.660 We don't believe it.
00:19:25.620 What she actually did, what the actual record is, is that she inflicted the American people with the worst affordability and inflation crisis in generations.
00:19:36.500 Now, this is not rocket science, my friends.
00:19:38.360 When inflation happens, when the government spends and prints money that we don't have, that makes your hard-earned money worthless.
00:19:45.540 And that makes Kamala Harris directly responsible for this inflation disaster, because she cast the tie-breaking vote on nearly $2 trillion in reckless spending.
00:19:57.000 Not just that, she then cast another tie-breaking vote on a radical left-wing spending wish list, which spent millions and billions of dollars on green energy scams.
00:20:08.700 That was another couple trillion dollars.
00:20:10.940 And while they weakened the dollar, Biden-Harris cracked down on American energy.
00:20:16.180 That is a recipe for the terrible affordability crisis that we have on this country.
00:20:20.760 You combine that with the regulatory agenda.
00:20:23.640 You combine the energy problems.
00:20:25.460 You combine the trillions of dollars in reckless spending.
00:20:28.400 And you have got inflation into the stratosphere.
00:20:31.100 Now, instead of buying energy from every dictator around the globe, which is what Kamala Harris wants to do, under President Trump, we're going to embrace a very simple principle.
00:20:41.700 We're going to get American energy from American workers and American territory.
00:20:46.000 We are going to drill, baby, drill.
00:20:48.880 That's going to cut down prices.
00:20:51.840 And that's going to create a lot of prosperity for the American people.
00:20:54.680 Now, Kamala Harris and our Democrat friends, they didn't just shut down American energy, print trillions of dollars.
00:21:02.580 They also extended, we forget this, the economy-crushing lockdowns, and then they overran the country with tens of millions of illegal aliens.
00:21:13.100 Now, you bring in 30 million people and you weaken the dollar, that is how you get the inflation crisis that we have.
00:21:19.860 Now, here just in Michigan, and it's similar in Ohio, and it's similar in a lot of states across the Midwest, the average family is spending $1,000 more a month just to buy what they were buying four years ago.
00:21:32.960 That's $12,000 a year just to live the same normal middle-class life.
00:21:38.160 And have wages gone up $12,000 under Kamala Harris?
00:21:42.360 No, they haven't.
00:21:43.760 So to ask a very simple question, President Trump asked it just a couple of days ago, are you better off than you were four years ago?
00:21:50.440 Absolutely not.
00:21:51.300 So let's bring Donald Trump back, right?
00:21:52.860 It's that simple.
00:21:57.720 So, thank you.
00:22:05.300 So, under Kamala Harris, gas prices are up 50%.
00:22:09.260 And I know we're a trucking company.
00:22:11.040 Do you think truckers benefit when gas prices go up 50%?
00:22:13.820 No.
00:22:14.940 And neither do the people who depend on truckers, which is every single one of us.
00:22:20.120 Housing costs have doubled.
00:22:22.440 Grocery prices are up 21%.
00:22:24.840 A record number of Americans are working multiple jobs.
00:22:28.600 And I happen to believe in a simple principle that if you work hard and play by the rules, you ought to be able to afford a good life in the country your parents and grandparents build.
00:22:36.400 Isn't that simple?
00:22:38.500 Now, the housing market is the least affordable it's ever been.
00:22:41.940 Mortgage rates have doubled.
00:22:43.280 And that's thanks to Kamala Harris' suspending policies.
00:22:46.200 The average new car costs nearly $50,000 a year.
00:22:50.400 And this November, my friends, we're going to send the message that Michigan chooses prosperity over poverty.
00:22:57.040 And that we will never accept four more years of Kamala Harris.
00:23:00.920 She's out of there.
00:23:08.260 But inflation isn't the only scourge that Washington and Kamala Harris have inflicted on American workers.
00:23:15.360 In fact, let's talk about the news of the day.
00:23:17.320 Just a few days ago, Stellantis announced that it was going to permanently cut nearly 2,500 proud Michigan auto workers who make the iconic Ram 1500.
00:23:26.360 Did you all hear that?
00:23:28.680 Now, Kamala has done nothing.
00:23:31.020 Now, remember when Donald Trump, when American businesses threatened to shut down factories and move them to Mexico and China?
00:23:36.960 Remember what Trump did?
00:23:37.900 He picked up the phone and said, if you do that, I'm going to introduce you to a little word called the tariff.
00:23:44.340 And a lot of American workers benefit because he was willing to fight for the interests and for their American jobs.
00:23:51.740 Now, her policies have been decimating the American auto industry for years.
00:23:56.960 Remember, this is the woman who voted to preserve NAFTA, to extend NAFTA, the very trade deal that sent American auto jobs to Mexico by the tens of thousands and turned American dreams into nightmares.
00:24:09.900 She supported these EV mandates that taxed you, took your money, and sent it to electric vehicles that are made in China instead of made right here in the state of Michigan.
00:24:22.620 Destroying thousands of Michigan auto jobs in the process.
00:24:26.280 And it's not just the car jobs themselves.
00:24:28.200 You all know this.
00:24:29.180 It's the carburetors.
00:24:30.260 It's the transmissions.
00:24:31.320 It's the people who are making the components.
00:24:33.540 They are the ones who suffer when Kamala Harris sends your tax dollars to Chinese-made cars.
00:24:39.080 Well, Kamala Harris now is standing here in Michigan asking us for a promotion.
00:24:43.620 I think it's time to say to Kamala Harris, no thank you.
00:24:46.600 You are fired.
00:24:55.060 Now, even when Harris sold your jobs to the lowest bidder overseas, trashed your paychecks with unprecedented inflation,
00:25:02.400 as America's borders are, she did something maybe even worse.
00:25:06.440 Flooding this country with millions of cheap, illegal alien laborers, stealing your jobs, depressing our wages in the process.
00:25:15.380 On day one, just remember what they did.
00:25:17.780 They promised they were going to do it, and then they did it.
00:25:19.740 On day one, Biden and Harris suspended deportations.
00:25:23.020 They stopped building the wall.
00:25:24.500 I was at the wall a week ago, and you see it just laying on the ground, ready to be completed, and Kamala Harris won't let them.
00:25:31.220 They reinstated catch and release, meaning that even if Border Patrol catches an illegal alien, oftentimes they get released into our country anyways.
00:25:39.520 And they proposed amnesty for millions of illegal aliens.
00:25:44.520 Kamala Harris turned Border Patrol into a travel agency for violent criminals and freeloaders from around the world.
00:25:51.300 Now, President Trump and I have a different message.
00:25:53.500 If you're in this country illegally, start packing your bags because Donald Trump is going to send you home, and he's going to do it on day one.
00:26:06.840 Now, we're in this incredible company, and we're at this incredible company, and I want to introduce just a few people who make this place possible,
00:26:14.740 people who have been building American dreams, some of them for over a half a century.
00:26:18.180 So we've got the great Mary Jane Cordes.
00:26:20.700 Mary Jane, thank you so much for having me.
00:26:23.500 I love you.
00:26:26.380 It's great to have you.
00:26:28.040 Thank you.
00:26:30.460 Now, she's the co-founder of Cordes Inc., and her sons, Steve and Charlie, now run this company.
00:26:35.840 And sadly, after nearly 60 years in business, they're struggling to keep the company afloat under Kamala Harris.
00:26:43.600 So I'm going to ask, if it's not going to embarrass them too much, Steve and Charlie, would you both come up and tell your story a little bit?
00:26:48.500 Let's welcome up Steve and Charlie Cordes, great American business leaders.
00:27:03.880 Yeah, JD's right.
00:27:05.340 The last four years with fuel prices, inflation, we just have to work so hard.
00:27:12.200 Steve and I are here all the time.
00:27:13.400 We've tried to give raises to our guys, but when inflation goes up 20% since 2021, under this administration in Michigan, it's a little hard to keep up.
00:27:26.820 We're doing the best we can.
00:27:28.280 Our margins are getting thinner.
00:27:30.060 We're going to keep going.
00:27:32.400 We've got great employees.
00:27:33.980 There's a bunch of them here.
00:27:35.820 And we're just going to keep rocking it out.
00:27:38.700 But we've got to get this guy elected.
00:27:40.600 We've got to get Donald Trump elected with JD as his VP.
00:27:47.500 And I agree so much on what JD has to say.
00:27:51.620 We try to use the best parts we can.
00:27:54.780 We do not want to put Chinese parts on our vehicles.
00:27:58.220 The safety of the road is at stake.
00:28:02.440 We always buy American made as much as we can.
00:28:05.800 And it's getting harder because they ship the jobs overseas.
00:28:09.220 So we need to bring them back with the tariffs like Donald Trump did before and keep America great.
00:28:16.440 Thank you.
00:28:17.060 Well, I thank you all so much, and thanks so much for what you're doing.
00:28:29.400 And isn't that crazy to think you've got great American entrepreneurs who want to buy American,
00:28:34.280 and it's getting harder and harder because Kamala Harris means that there's fewer and fewer things being built in this country?
00:28:40.140 What a disgrace.
00:28:41.060 We can do so much better.
00:28:42.060 We've got the best workers, the best people.
00:28:44.620 We've got the best country.
00:28:46.000 We just need American leaders to stop screwing it up.
00:28:48.560 I also want to introduce one of their employers, Chuck Bixby, who's a very, very good dude.
00:28:54.000 I met him earlier.
00:28:54.840 He's a great Trump fan.
00:28:56.340 Chuck, thank you so much for being here.
00:28:57.840 You want to come on up and say a few words?
00:29:00.240 Come on.
00:29:00.860 Come on, Chuck.
00:29:01.420 We're going to bear a shuck a little bit.
00:29:05.820 Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck.
00:29:09.980 Thank you, sir.
00:29:12.740 As they all said before, we need him.
00:29:16.280 That's right.
00:29:17.820 Because not only is Donald Trump going to do the next four years, I got dibs on him doing the four after.
00:29:26.240 And you all can, yep, I see it.
00:29:29.000 So we're there.
00:29:30.900 Everybody get people out, get them to vote.
00:29:33.520 The more votes that we can get out, the harder it's going to be for them to cheat.
00:29:40.360 Let everybody have fun.
00:29:43.340 Sorry to embarrass you.
00:29:50.480 So, Chuck, I'm sorry for embarrassing you.
00:29:53.420 I had to make you come up and say a few words.
00:29:55.480 So let me just tell you a little story.
00:29:57.320 Chuck reminds me of a lot of people that I knew growing up in Middletown, hardworking
00:30:02.360 people, people who keep this country running.
00:30:05.300 And it reminds me, you know, sometimes Kamala Harris, she talks and the Democrats talk about
00:30:09.980 the old economy versus the new economy.
00:30:12.380 I like to talk about the real economy versus the fake economy.
00:30:15.800 And the real economy is for the people who build things with their hands, who get it
00:30:19.740 to our stores, who transport it from one place to another.
00:30:22.720 Chuck is working in the real economy without a lot of American workers like him.
00:30:26.880 This country would be screwed.
00:30:28.300 So thank you, Chuck.
00:30:29.080 Thanks for what you do.
00:30:35.340 You know, I want to leave you with just this thought because it's a story that I've been
00:30:39.740 thinking a lot about a lot.
00:30:42.200 I've been on the campaign trail as the vice president nominee for all of about four weeks
00:30:46.160 and what an honor it is.
00:30:47.200 But not long ago, I met a woman on the campaign trail and she told me a story that really stuck
00:30:52.860 out to me.
00:30:53.340 She is a nurse and her husband is recently retired.
00:30:57.860 They're just middle class people raising their grandchildren for reasons she didn't explain
00:31:02.360 to me, but I'm sure all of us can guess why she's raising her grandchildren.
00:31:06.240 And though this woman hasn't had an easy life, she told me about her home and her family without
00:31:10.620 an ounce of complaint or resentment.
00:31:14.120 Now, she wasn't angry at Kamala Harris for firing thousands of American health care workers
00:31:18.700 for refusing to get a vaccine.
00:31:21.040 She wasn't mad about that.
00:31:22.540 She wasn't angry at her grandchildren for depriving her of an easy retirement because she's a little
00:31:26.340 on the older side and now she's got to take care of these grandkids.
00:31:29.040 And she wasn't even angry at her daughter for leaving her an unexpected set of kids to care
00:31:33.340 for.
00:31:34.160 She lived her life.
00:31:35.860 She cared for her family and she did it without a hint of complaint.
00:31:39.520 Now, this, my friends, reminds me of my grandmother.
00:31:41.760 This is the American spirit, a woman who does her duty, she does it well, and she doesn't
00:31:48.280 expect a handout for doing it.
00:31:50.180 God bless her.
00:31:55.680 But, you know, if there wasn't any entitlement, there was a bit of sorrow.
00:32:02.400 Because in a lifetime of trials and tribulations, there was one thing about this moment that
00:32:07.100 frustrated her, that the price of food had gotten so high that she could no longer do
00:32:12.700 steak night.
00:32:14.100 Every Friday, she told me, for years, we have done steak night in our house.
00:32:18.080 And I'm not talking about a steakhouse or a filet mignon, but in good times and bad, we
00:32:22.600 made sure that Friday, we'd go to the grocery store, we'd get a nice steak, and make it a
00:32:27.040 special occasion.
00:32:27.720 That was her family tradition every single Friday.
00:32:30.460 And now, she told me, it's gone.
00:32:33.420 We just do hamburger.
00:32:34.440 There's nothing wrong with hamburger, but it's not a steak.
00:32:38.680 Grocery bills are just too high, she said.
00:32:42.980 Her nurse's salary isn't high enough, and her husband, who's a retiree, his Social Security
00:32:48.040 is just a little too small.
00:32:51.500 America, I think, was built on a very simple promise, that each of us would have a say in
00:32:57.400 our own government.
00:32:58.380 That each of us would be secure in our own property, however tiny a slice of our country
00:33:04.960 we got to own.
00:33:06.740 Now, the old way was that we were to be ruled by some foreign king in a faraway land, then
00:33:12.220 in America, every man and every woman is a king.
00:33:15.720 And yes, if you work hard, you ought to be able to afford a steak on a Friday night for
00:33:19.200 a special occasion.
00:33:20.000 Now, I was listening to Kamala Harris give a rally recently, because she doesn't talk
00:33:30.760 to the media, she just talks behind a teleprompter.
00:33:33.480 We're going to take some questions from the media after this, as a matter of fact.
00:33:37.200 But she said she's going to tackle the affordability crisis affecting American families on day one.
00:33:44.000 Think about that.
00:33:48.480 Kamala, day one was January of 2021.
00:33:54.480 Day one was four years ago, Kamala Harris.
00:33:58.260 And because of your policies, too many children can't afford a nice meal.
00:34:03.660 Too many children have been killed by fentanyl.
00:34:06.500 Too many grandparents are raising kids they didn't plan for.
00:34:09.520 And too many families can't afford a special meal on a Friday night.
00:34:15.200 Now, the media, our friends in the back, they make a lot of noise, make a lot of news about
00:34:22.180 the new tone of Kamala Harris' campaign.
00:34:24.520 Have you seen this?
00:34:26.580 They say, Kamala Harris, you can tell she's excited.
00:34:30.120 But I'll tell you what she's excited about.
00:34:31.940 She's excited that she just got a promotion without earning a single American vote.
00:34:35.700 She says she's having fun.
00:34:42.740 But while she's having fun, Americans are suffering under her policies.
00:34:47.740 When she laughs during a speech, remember that there are American families crying this very day
00:34:53.220 because they cannot afford groceries.
00:34:54.880 When she does these rallies and does these events and does these fake dances,
00:35:00.160 remember that there are parents who lost their children to drugs or violence
00:35:04.520 who will never see their children move again, much less dance again.
00:35:10.400 When she tells you, and this is her new slogan, we're not going back,
00:35:14.460 remember that for three and a half years, that is exactly what we've been doing.
00:35:18.160 We've been going back to a place where Americans aren't kings in their own country,
00:35:22.240 but paupers begging their government for precious scraps of safety, security, and food.
00:35:28.320 We are going back, Kamala Harris, because of you,
00:35:31.740 and we're going to fire you because we want to take this country forward.
00:35:41.240 Now, I cannot get over, my friends, about everything about her campaign is fake.
00:35:46.380 A fake joy that comes from being promoted to a new position
00:35:50.300 instead of using the position you already have to do your job
00:35:54.300 and make the lives of the citizens of this country better.
00:35:57.680 It's a fake ticket that never earned a single Democrat primary vote.
00:36:02.820 It's a fake platform that offers no specifics about how to do the people's businesses
00:36:07.700 and a fake promise to change the government
00:36:11.380 even though she's been in charge of that very government for almost four years
00:36:14.840 and hasn't done a damn thing.
00:36:22.980 Donald J. Trump's campaign instead offers something very, very different.
00:36:28.420 Not a fake optimism, but a very real hope.
00:36:32.200 A hope and a vision to see that hope become reality in this country once again.
00:36:38.900 A hope that we have the best workers in the world
00:36:41.580 so we're going to stop shipping their jobs to China
00:36:43.920 and build more things right here in the United States of America.
00:36:49.100 A hope that if we unleash American energy and American farmers,
00:36:53.940 food and energy will become affordable in this country again.
00:36:57.500 A hope that if we build more homes and stop foreigners from buying the homes that we have,
00:37:04.020 the American dream of homeownership is going to become real again.
00:37:09.300 It is a hope that we can close the border and stop the drugs
00:37:13.220 if we empower the Border Patrol and back the blue in Michigan and everywhere else.
00:37:18.240 It is a hope in the moms and dads and grandparents of our country
00:37:24.700 that though they do have the spirit to survive under the policies of Kamala Harris,
00:37:30.200 they have the ability to thrive under the leadership of Donald J. Trump.
00:37:34.980 When we say that we will make America great again, we mean something simple.
00:37:40.040 Safe streets for our families, a secure border, affordable food for our children,
00:37:44.580 and the American dream, whether it's to buy a home
00:37:47.500 or to see your children do better off than you did,
00:37:50.220 that is achievable again.
00:37:52.260 Let's get it done.
00:37:53.400 We're going to start here in Michigan.
00:37:55.040 It's going to start a fire that goes across the United States of America.
00:37:59.160 Let everybody hear that America is ready to re-elect Donald J. Trump,
00:38:03.900 the president again, and Michigan, it's going to start with you.
00:38:07.620 God bless you all.
00:38:08.720 Thank you for doing everything you do, and thank you for having me.
00:38:14.580 Love that flag.
00:38:17.580 Thank you, man.
00:38:20.140 That was incredible.
00:38:21.560 Great speech, J.D. Vance.
00:38:23.020 I think the big takeaway for me right there was when he was talking about steak night
00:38:28.740 and the idea of an American family, a working family.
00:38:35.520 Everyone should be a king in your own country.
00:38:39.420 You can all be kings in your own country.
00:38:41.260 And the idea, of course, that you should be able to afford a steak night once a week
00:38:48.980 for your family on Friday night for special occasions,
00:38:52.980 that's something directly tangible.
00:38:56.200 I love the idea that he told a story with that because everybody knows that feeling.
00:39:01.140 Everybody knows that feeling of it's a special night and we're going out for steak
00:39:05.440 or, you know, for my family, it was always Red Lobster.
00:39:08.480 And Red Lobster was like twice, maybe a year, and only if you did really well on your report card.
00:39:13.960 You know, you were getting Red Lobster.
00:39:15.460 That was like a big deal.
00:39:16.800 So I love that he is using that.
00:39:19.840 He's talking to people, and it's incredible the way that it's set up.
00:39:24.000 All right, folks, we told you that we were going to have this interview.
00:39:28.420 We're going to pull it up after J.D. Vance finished.
00:39:31.160 Here we are.
00:39:32.240 We have got now on the J6 praying grandma, but her real name is Rebecca Lavrens.
00:39:39.280 She's joining us along with her lawyer, John Pierce.
00:39:42.980 Let's start with John real quick.
00:39:45.000 How are you?
00:39:46.660 Doing well, Jack.
00:39:47.820 I'm a big fan.
00:39:48.860 Great to finally be on your show.
00:39:50.060 Thank you.
00:39:52.140 And Rebecca, I know you're joining via phone.
00:39:54.320 Thank you so much for taking the time today to be with us here at the Human Events audience.
00:40:10.940 With her real quickly.
00:40:14.460 John, tell me a little bit about what went in with this case
00:40:17.660 and specifically with this fine, we're being told it's the largest fine
00:40:21.600 for a misdemeanor in U.S. history.
00:40:25.580 I believe at this point.
00:40:27.340 So Rebecca Lavrens, she's a great grandmother, a bed and breakfast owner from Colorado
00:40:31.640 in her mid-70s.
00:40:34.540 Great, great woman, Christian woman,
00:40:37.200 and really went to January 6th to the Capitol just to pray.
00:40:41.000 She went there to pray for the country, went there to pray for the leaders of the country
00:40:47.240 on both sides, and really just wants to see the nation kind of get through this current
00:40:51.680 state of division.
00:40:52.920 And so we fought very hard for her.
00:40:55.860 The government offered her a plea deal.
00:40:57.620 She felt very strongly that she didn't do anything wrong and she wanted to fight.
00:41:01.000 So we took the case to trial, put on a great case, fought very hard, had the jury deliberating
00:41:07.200 for about four days.
00:41:09.020 So we held that hope that there was going to be something good in the verdict, but they
00:41:13.100 did come back and they convicted her on the four misdemeanor counts.
00:41:16.500 Now, we just had her sentencing on Monday and the government was seeking 10 months in
00:41:22.560 federal prison.
00:41:23.740 We were very successful in keeping her out of prison.
00:41:26.860 She got six months home detention.
00:41:28.120 However, she did get hit with what we believe is the largest misdemeanor fine in American
00:41:33.900 history of $103,000, essentially under the rationale that she had been successful in raising a lot of
00:41:41.700 money online for her defense costs and attorney fees.
00:41:46.200 And that's what that money has gone toward.
00:41:48.580 So she does not have the money as we speak to pay a $103,000 fine, of course.
00:41:54.060 And then what the judge did was he also put on a restriction that prohibits her from being
00:42:00.040 able to access the internet for those six months.
00:42:02.920 She can't use email and she cannot access the internet.
00:42:05.960 She can only text and use the phone.
00:42:08.860 So, of course, we think that's an unconstitutional restriction on her free speech.
00:42:12.820 It also prevents her from being able to effectively raise funds to pay for this fine.
00:42:18.780 And it does prevent her from speaking about the 2024 election coming up.
00:42:22.160 All right.
00:42:24.060 Now, I'm being told that we've reconnected with Rebecca.
00:42:28.240 Let's give that another shot.
00:42:29.500 Rebecca, are you there?
00:42:31.420 Yes, I am.
00:42:32.160 Thank you.
00:42:33.040 Honored to be here.
00:42:35.180 We're so glad to have you on.
00:42:36.820 Tell us, what's been your experience?
00:42:40.160 How do you feel about your government after seeing them put you through what they did?
00:42:45.300 I just think it's appalling.
00:42:49.540 I mean, they call themselves representing the United States of America, but the prosecution
00:42:55.960 and the sentencing does not reflect what I believe is a constitutional founding father's
00:43:02.920 original intent for the country of the United States.
00:43:05.540 They're turning so ungodly.
00:43:06.900 My main mission in this whole event is because of God to restore country back to its original
00:43:13.920 intent as a godly nation.
00:43:15.380 And if they can take away my inalienable rights that were given to us by God to speak freely,
00:43:20.620 to share what I believe, even if it disagrees with them.
00:43:24.680 And that's so opposite, like John said, of my constitutional rights that were given to
00:43:30.680 us 250 years ago.
00:43:34.560 But I'm excited because the fact that they, because they thought that I was the loudest
00:43:41.940 voice out there for January 6th, they were very, I think they were afraid of me.
00:43:46.960 And that's what our founding father, Thomas Jefferson, said.
00:43:50.660 He said, if it's the government, if we fear the government, that's tyranny.
00:43:56.840 And I will never bow down to tyranny.
00:43:58.820 But if the government fears us, then that's liberty.
00:44:01.760 And I think we're on, I'm hopeful that we're on the way to liberty because the government
00:44:05.480 is fearing me.
00:44:06.700 And because they've tried to silence me, it only has multiplied what they're trying to
00:44:12.040 silence because they want to keep me silent.
00:44:14.240 My family who are, have four children that are going to start taking over my social media
00:44:19.040 and putting out my daily newsletters and, and so many people are just start rising up to
00:44:25.300 multiply what I was doing with my voice.
00:44:28.000 And so I think what, what I believe the enemy has tried to silence, God's going to make it
00:44:33.120 amplify even more by me.
00:44:35.640 I trying to, by them trying to silence me with this six months blocking involved internet.
00:44:42.620 You got me on because you know how to still use a phone call.
00:44:47.220 Yeah.
00:44:49.040 Well, and, and Rebecca, you know, and then of course we would very happy to have you on
00:44:52.880 and we would have found whatever way it is to get you here.
00:44:56.080 I mean, when you look through the case and I'm looking through your case file here, it
00:45:00.480 says you essentially walked through an open door and you prayed again, you prayed inside
00:45:07.800 the Capitol.
00:45:08.380 And, and let me ask you sort of put together those questions.
00:45:11.140 Do you think it's possible that one of the reasons that they went after you so hard as they
00:45:16.620 did and as they are is because you're not afraid of being a proud Christian mother, grandmother,
00:45:25.660 and great grandmother and doing so publicly inside our Capitol.
00:45:31.560 Right.
00:45:32.040 I think that is it.
00:45:32.980 I mean, I'm not afraid.
00:45:34.280 And I boldly declare that I'm, they could have thrown me in prison if they wanted to,
00:45:38.520 but the judge actually said, I don't think prison is going to do any good.
00:45:42.780 I think I'm right on that, John, but they didn't think, they knew that I wasn't afraid
00:45:47.180 because as a Christian and very strong believer in God, he's the higher authority in my life
00:45:52.700 and they can put me in prison, but they can never shut my, shut off the freedoms that are
00:45:56.940 in my heart and what God has already put, put in me because I love my, I love God more
00:46:01.660 than anything and then my country and I will stand up and fight for my country, for my
00:46:05.880 children, you know, just by walking in and carrying God's presence in the Capitol.
00:46:10.820 I didn't pray out loud or anything like that, but I knew that wherever I go, God goes with
00:46:15.580 me.
00:46:16.000 And I just wanted his presence in that Capitol because that's what they believe he told
00:46:20.660 me to do.
00:46:21.520 And I think that we are going to make a difference.
00:46:23.660 There are so many people that love this country.
00:46:26.660 It brings me to tears almost.
00:46:28.360 And just now I could get emotional because it's not about me.
00:46:31.900 There are millions of people that love this country and are willing.
00:46:36.120 If they get enough courage, they will also stand up.
00:46:39.280 Just like my attorney team, John Pearson, Roger and Emily, they are fighters.
00:46:43.820 They will stand up and fight for our country too.
00:46:46.300 They're not going to back down and neither will I.
00:46:49.400 Becca, we're coming up on a quick break, but I'd love to hold you and John over so that
00:46:54.980 people can hear more of your story and understand how to get involved.
00:46:59.140 Stay tuned, folks.
00:46:59.900 We've got a very quick break.
00:47:01.100 We're back on exclusive interview with Rebecca Laverins, brain grandma of January 6th.

00:48:05.860 sustainably sourced meat and fish, all while supporting the American family farms.
00:48:10.240 You can help save those family farms and get access to the highest quality meat on earth
00:48:14.680 when you join the Moink Box movement today.
00:48:17.040 So what is it?

00:48:22.120 sustainable wild-caught Alaskan salmon straight to your door.
00:48:25.860 Moink farmers farm like our grandparents did.
00:48:29.260 And as a result, Moink meat tastes like it should because the family farm, we all know they do it better.
00:48:35.380 The Moink Box difference is a difference you can taste and you can feel good knowing you're helping
00:48:39.640 those family farms stay financially independent too.
00:48:43.400 You choose the meat delivered in every box.
00:48:45.560 We're talking ribeyes, chicken breasts, pork chops, salmon fillets, and just like the great
00:48:50.940 Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank said, the best bacon.
00:48:54.740 Plus, you can cancel any time.
00:48:56.560 Look, when Tanya Tate gets this in, she fries it up, she grills it up, she cooks it up, whatever
00:49:00.700 it is.
00:49:01.360 She likes the salmon.
00:49:02.700 I go more for the bacon.
00:49:05.200 And of course, they do this bratwurst with the cheese infused.
00:49:08.960 I don't know how they get it.
00:49:09.740 It's incredible.
00:49:10.780 Folks, keep American farming alive by signing up at moinkbox.com slash POSO right now.

00:49:30.340 That's moinkbox.com slash POSO.
00:49:33.100 When I'm back here, we have our exclusive interview with Rebecca Leverens, the praying
00:49:39.160 grandma, as well as John Pierce, returning.
00:49:41.740 John, for people who are listening, very quickly, tell us what are the ways that people can support?
00:49:48.320 Because I know that the Give, Send, Go has been very successful.
00:49:51.880 But at the same time, I say keep going.
00:49:54.600 I say we need to send a message to these people.
00:49:57.240 So I'm urging everyone to go to this Give, Send, Go, give people the coordinates and the
00:50:02.720 specific instructions.
00:50:04.620 Yeah, absolutely.
00:50:05.760 It's so important.
00:50:07.060 Give, Send, Go.
00:50:08.120 And after the backslash, it's Rebecca Leverens, J6.
00:50:11.480 We're going to need a lot of resources to continue this fight.
00:50:14.100 One of the reasons that Rebecca hired me and my team, I know for sure, is that we're fighters
00:50:18.720 and she's a fighter.
00:50:20.140 And we've always intended to take this to trial and to take it all the way through every
00:50:24.820 level of appeal.
00:50:25.600 So we're going to take this to the D.C. Circuit.
00:50:29.280 Depending on what happens there, we're also going to go to the Supreme Court as necessary.
00:50:33.860 And then, of course, once President Trump gets back in office, there may be pardon applications
00:50:38.380 that need to be taken care of.
00:50:40.280 And also there's this fine.
00:50:41.920 We intend to get this overturned on appeal, but we need to make sure that Rebecca has the
00:50:46.020 resources to handle this fine.
00:50:47.860 So we still need a lot of help.
00:50:49.320 So anybody can go to that Give, Send, Go, and any mouth is a huge help.
00:50:53.640 So thank you for mentioning that.
00:50:55.600 Absolutely.
00:50:56.880 Now, Rebecca, I wanted to go back to something that you and I were scratching the surface
00:50:59.840 of, because this is something I didn't even realize just looking at the case file, that
00:51:03.780 you were talking about how at your trial, there were statements that were made.
00:51:09.160 There were attitudes that were surfaced that seemed almost ungodly and even anti-Christian
00:51:18.000 from officials from our own federal government.
00:51:20.920 Is that why they went after you so hard?
00:51:24.840 I don't know.
00:51:25.700 I think the biggest reason they believe strongly that we were wrong by being at the Capitol on
00:51:32.940 January 6th, that it was, you know, I believe that's why they wanted to silence me.
00:51:38.360 So I think that's the biggest thing, because one of the things that they said in their memorandum,
00:51:44.040 I hope this is okay that I'm saying this, John, but they said, I'm one of the loudest voices.
00:51:49.640 And so why else would they decide to take me off the Internet?
00:51:55.240 They don't want me to have interviews.
00:51:57.960 They feel like I'm being influenced wrongly, that the judge even said I should stay home
00:52:03.700 and just be a grandma and take care of my grandchildren, but not be a voice.
00:52:09.140 So, and that's what I think is totally unconstitutional.
00:52:13.660 I mean, do I not have a right to say what I believe, even if it's contrary to the current
00:52:19.780 narrative that the justice system and the administration right now is saying that January 6th was what
00:52:27.680 they said it was, but there were over a million, in my opinion, people that were strong patriots
00:52:33.860 and conservatives that love our country, that love the country that it was originally intended
00:52:39.280 to be as a country that loved God.
00:52:42.340 We are one nation under God.
00:52:44.880 I believe that the judge did say on the sentencing that he just said one nation.
00:52:50.580 He did not say under God.
00:52:52.060 And we are a nation that was under God.
00:52:54.600 Without God, we don't have a nation.
00:52:57.080 And I think that's my biggest mantra is that we need to get back to having God as part of our nation
00:53:03.180 because without God in our country, we will not have a nation.
00:53:08.020 That's just been proven over and over again throughout history that without God,
00:53:12.600 and especially with our country, because in 1620 and 1607, there were covenants made with God that
00:53:18.780 said this land, that's over 400 years ago, that this land would be a godly nation, that we would
00:53:25.240 give glory to God.
00:53:26.300 And I do not see that right now when all the different things that are being put out of taking
00:53:32.460 God out and just make everybody believe whatever everybody wants to believe.
00:53:36.760 And you can't do that without having lawlessness.
00:53:41.020 You know, when you take God out, you'll have lawlessness.
00:53:43.180 And I believe that's what we're seeing in our country.
00:53:45.240 And it saddens me to know that our country is so divided that we would take God completely
00:53:51.960 out of our country and have the situation we're in right now with such chaos and unrest.
00:53:56.780 Rebecca, one thing that—so I just wrote this whole book about communism and totalitarian
00:54:03.420 government takeovers, and you see the targeting of religious leaders and religious women time
00:54:09.960 and time again throughout history.
00:54:11.420 And they actually asked Solzhenitsyn, who's a famous Russian anti-communist writer, and
00:54:16.420 they asked him—it lines up with very much what you're saying—they said, how could all
00:54:20.140 of this have happened?
00:54:21.440 And they asked him this towards the end of his life.
00:54:22.680 How could the Soviet Union and the persecution of Christians and the mass gulag system and
00:54:27.800 the totalitarian control of everything—how could it have happened?
00:54:31.340 And he responded in a very short phrase.
00:54:34.820 Solzhenitsyn replied, we forgot God.
00:54:38.580 We forgot God.
00:54:39.700 And it was simple as that.
00:54:43.820 Carl Marx said in the mid-1800s, his one mission in life was to dethrone God.
00:54:50.880 And when I was in that Capitol for the 10 minutes, the one thing I saw, I said to myself, I didn't
00:54:57.560 say anything out loud right at that moment.
00:55:00.280 I just saw my three little grandchildren, and I said to myself, I said, I will not let my
00:55:06.060 children or my grandchildren be brought into a country with a Marxist ideology, not on my
00:55:12.560 watch.
00:55:12.940 It's amazing.
00:55:14.080 Amen.
00:55:14.560 Amen.
00:55:14.740 Amen.
00:55:14.940 Amen.
00:55:15.300 Amen to you, Rebecca Leverenz, the J6 praying grandma, God blessed to you.
00:55:20.080 Thank you so much, John, for taking her case.
00:55:22.880 Make sure everyone is going to the give, send, go.
00:55:26.360 Make sure everyone is supporting this.
00:55:27.980 And there you go, folks.
00:55:29.400 It's as simple as that.
00:55:31.620 We will not let our country be taken over by godless Marxist communists.
00:55:38.180 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
