Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec - Is It POSSIBLE For A Republican To Win In California？

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, it's Jack. I wanted to let you know that we're starting a new push for subscriptions here on Human Events Daily.

00:00:09.260 So make sure that when you're listening to this podcast, you hit subscribe, you download it, and you share it with five of your friends.

00:00:16.640 Make sure they're all going and downloading as well, because we need to get the signal out as much as possible.

00:00:22.380 Look, we've done so much over the past couple of years since this show started, and we're only going to do so much more.

00:00:29.300 Let's get it.

00:00:33.440 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.

00:00:42.540 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:49.200 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.

00:00:52.220 Christ is king.

00:00:53.840 Welcome to Human Events Daily.

00:00:57.220 I am Bo Davidson in our Washington, D.C. studios alongside Benny Ray Harmony,

00:01:01.720 who was Jack Posobiec's first producer.

00:01:03.580 I don't know if a lot of you know that, but Benny is.

00:01:05.320 Founding producer back in, what was it, 2020, 2021.

00:01:08.540 Good times.

00:01:09.040 Why don't we tell our audience a little bit about what that was like back at that time.

00:01:12.160 Yeah.

00:01:13.200 This was the start of Human Events, really.

00:01:15.600 This was when Turning Point was putting the show together,

00:01:17.940 and it was going on Turning Point Live.

00:01:20.180 And it was kind of my first job in podcast and TV.

00:01:26.260 And Jack, honestly, I look back and he taught me so much.

00:01:29.220 I don't think that I would really have the understanding of this industry if it wasn't for doing that for Jack.

00:01:36.820 It was pretty cool.

00:01:38.060 Well, Benny, let's get to some of these top stories today because a lot is going on right now in Capitol Hill.

00:01:42.220 We have the Japanese prime minister who is here.

00:01:45.040 Ireland's leader was also here as well.

00:01:46.480 Tell us some of the top stories and events you've been covering this week in Capitol Hill.

00:01:49.660 Yeah, well, obviously the big conversation is Iran and the war going on.

00:01:54.280 But one of the things that President Trump's been doing this week is he is not halting foreign conversations.

00:01:59.620 He is continuing the movement.

00:02:01.800 He, like you said, he had on St. Patrick's Day, he had the Ireland leader here where they participated in a lot of traditional kind of, you know, ceremonies that they've been doing for 50 plus years.

00:02:11.860 The passing of the Shamrock Bowl and just lots of great conversations.

00:02:16.500 but it's interesting to see how these foreign leaders are still, they want to talk to him,

00:02:20.940 but they're staying very neutral. And you see with the Japanese prime minister coming today

00:02:25.240 and the Ireland leader that came just a few days ago, they kind of don't want to speak

00:02:31.260 about what is happening because they have a lot of interests of their own,

00:02:34.720 but they also want President Trump to be on their good side. And so they're kind of finding that

00:02:39.860 neutrality in it all. And so that has been a huge thing at the White House, but obviously

00:02:44.480 Capitol Hill is booming right now. We still have the DHS shutdown that's happening,

00:02:49.640 the new confirmation of Senator Mark Wayne Mullins. So we have just had so much information here this

00:02:55.480 week. That's great. That's a great topic, actually, to talk about, Benny, because we've got Mark

00:02:58.660 Wayne Mullin, and Rand Paul has had a very adversarial relationship with Mark Wayne Mullin.

00:03:03.080 And we saw some of this play out. I saw a clip where Rand Paul was basically saying,

00:03:07.020 do you want to say this stuff to my face, things that you've said to me in the past? It seemed like

00:03:10.260 almost it was a Democrat versus a Republican in a lot of ways. And what's interesting to me,

00:03:14.240 Benny, is that John Fetterman voted for Mark Wayne Mullen and Rand Paul voted against him

00:03:19.380 in committee. Yeah. And that is intriguing to me. We were just talking about this. If that flip

00:03:23.700 wouldn't have happened, it would have been a tied confirmation hearing. And so but the important

00:03:28.040 thing to note, Bo, is the Rand Paul. He is very similar to that Thomas Massey kind of that

00:03:33.140 libertarian. I would say he's very conservative, but he also he challenges it a little bit. And I

00:03:39.420 I guess they had some sort of fight or something in the past where Senator Mullins, he had, he's a very, he's a bold guy, Senator Mullin.

00:03:47.900 And he had said something, you know, kind of criticizing Rand Paul.

00:03:51.680 I think he said he could understand why someone could attack Rand Paul.

00:03:54.100 I want you to say that to my face here in public.

00:03:56.140 In that committee hearing, he basically said, why would you say that to me?

00:03:59.700 So I kind of think Rand Paul was using that a little bit as a vengeful tactic maybe.

00:04:05.280 But it's pretty interesting to see how he he was the only Republican to vote against.

00:04:09.900 And it's interesting, Benny, before we started, I was thinking about John Fetterman and how he has seemed to be the only voice of reason or sanity in the Democratic Party.

00:04:17.340 He's been very supportive of this, this military action operation, Epic Fury.

00:04:21.240 And, of course, just understanding the geopolitics of it, the global consequences, what happens with China.

00:04:25.220 And even if we look at the prime minister of Japan being here today, they've got no oil.

00:04:28.940 They have no oil. So they have to have this conversation with President Trump, who does hold all the cards.

00:04:33.240 And what we hope doesn't happen, and we've seen this in some headlines today, Benny, is Trump is saying, I may go bomb basically these oil fields or these gas refineries if you keep taking actions against Qatar.

00:04:45.260 Because now what's happening is Iran is attacking oil hubs that are in ports that are in some of these neighboring Arab nations, which is causing, drawing their ire as well.

00:04:53.940 The thing about the Fetterman situation, too, is I think he can he's laying a very good foundation for the Democrats to kind of look at him as this is something that is good for everything that is happening.

00:05:06.480 He's not looking at it from a Democrat Republican perspective, in my opinion.

00:05:09.980 I think that he is really looking at the facts and saying, listen, you know, I don't maybe agree with everything you're doing, but this is what's best for the nation.

00:05:17.920 And so I think it's giving, hopefully, starting some sort of, you know, movement on Capitol Hill to bring some of those voices that maybe have been very, you know, against Trump and against Republicans and kind of bringing them over to understand in a different perspective.

00:05:35.260 Yeah, I agree.

00:05:36.280 I just think it's very interesting how John Fetterman has been shaking up the entire Democratic Party.

00:05:40.300 People keep saying, I think, is he going to turn Republican?

00:05:43.780 Like, what's going on?

00:05:44.540 Yeah, I think Sean Hannity was asked by President Trump to say, hey, you should run as a Republican.

00:05:50.020 Who knows if that will actually happen, but he does seem to be a voice of sanity.

00:05:53.380 Well, some other things that are happening.

00:05:54.900 We've got the latest on Cory Booker, Senator Booker, who was trying to stop Donald Trump from his military authority in Iran.

00:06:00.420 Of course, GOP senators block that.

00:06:02.920 That's not going to happen, Benny.

00:06:04.060 So anything else in particular on Capitol Hill this week we should be paying attention to in terms of the reporting you've been doing?

00:06:10.160 Well, I would just, I mean, I would say that War Powers conversation was huge and that it got blocked 53 to 47.

00:06:16.680 You know, that really kind of showed the administration, OK, maybe we have some standing on this.

00:06:21.880 But the other thing I mentioned at the very beginning, like we talked about, the Mark Wayne Mullen, but the DHS still not being funded.

00:06:27.280 This is really becoming an issue with airports you just got to D.C.

00:06:32.420 It's a conversation that needs to continue.

00:06:35.000 Yeah, and I think hopefully Democrats will be looked at as they're the ones that are stymieing this.

00:06:38.120 So, you know, it is important.

00:06:39.760 It's important to those DHS folks.

00:06:41.420 It's important to the TSA folks.

00:06:43.200 I mean, everybody needs to pitch in and help on this.

00:06:45.580 And I do want to mention one story before we go as well, that the U.S. has deployed A-10

00:06:49.560 warthogs, Apache helicopters, as stand-in weapons take point against Iranian drones.

00:06:54.720 We're changing our tactics.

00:06:56.140 This came from Pete Hegseth's press conference this morning.

00:06:58.840 David Zier had a big question there.

00:07:00.360 So we're following all of these updates and press conferences from the Department of

00:07:04.160 War, Benny.

00:07:04.420 And before we go with the Department of War, you know, requesting the $200 billion more

00:07:08.520 dollars for this war.

00:07:10.060 So we'll talk about that a little bit more as well.

00:07:11.640 All right.

00:07:11.860 We'll be right back with more Human Events Daily.

00:07:30.240 And in our way and our golden age has just begun.

00:07:33.640 This is Human Events with Jack Posobo.

00:07:35.600 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.

00:07:40.260 Welcome to the second American Revolution.

00:07:45.580 Ladies and gentlemen, one in three people will face a battle with cancer, and most will never see it coming.

00:07:51.660 Dr. Kelly Victory at the Wellness Company did everything right.

00:07:55.120 She exercised, ate clean, avoided processed foods, and had zero symptoms when she went in for a routine mammogram in July 2023.

00:08:03.640 She walked out with an aggressive cancer diagnosis that could have been fatal if found later.

00:08:09.760 It revealed a hard truth.

00:08:11.600 Even healthy people get cancer.

00:08:13.580 And it exposed a bigger issue.

00:08:15.820 Most modern medicine is reactive, not preventative.

00:08:19.100 You wait for a scare until you start to care.

00:08:22.560 Every day, our bodies are under constant pressure from stress, toxins, inflammation, and immune strain.

00:08:28.700 That damage builds quickly, year after year, until disease starts to form.

00:08:33.640 Dr. Victory asks a different question.

00:08:36.520 What can we do daily to support the body before something goes wrong?

00:08:40.820 That led her to formulate SHIELD.

00:08:43.440 SHIELD is a two-part natural system designed to support immune balance, 0.90

00:08:47.700 antioxidant defense, and cellular health,

00:08:50.080 exactly the systems you want strong to live a long, healthy life.

00:08:54.120 In the morning, drink the high-dosed nutraceutical cocoa mix.

00:08:58.160 Then with food, you can take the soft gels.

00:09:00.000 With ingredients like medicinal mushrooms, turmeric, green tea, olive leaf,

00:09:04.400 herbine, and black cumin seed oil,

00:09:06.880 SHIELD gives your body the tools it needs to keep cells healthy.

00:09:22.960 Welcome back to Human Events Daily.

00:09:24.800 I'm Beau Davidson alongside Benny Ray Harmony.

00:09:27.020 We want to bring in a guest now.

00:09:28.320 Her name is Elaine Colati.

00:09:30.000 She's a real estate developer, a designer, and an entrepreneur, and she's appeared on HGTV.

00:09:35.260 And she's currently running for governor in the state of California as an independent.

00:09:39.200 Elaine, thanks for being with us today on Human Events Daily.

00:09:41.660 Hey, thank you for having me on. I'm so excited.

00:09:44.240 Well, Elaine, this race is fascinating to me.

00:09:46.640 You know, I interviewed a gentleman a couple weeks ago, an Asian man who's running for governor there as well.

00:09:50.900 It seems like this race is wide open and that Democrats are fractured when it comes to this.

00:09:54.860 There's at least eight candidates, I believe, running.

00:09:56.860 They have not consolidated behind one candidate.

00:09:58.720 What can you tell me about the state of affairs in this particular gubernatorial race and how you factor into it?

00:10:04.000 It's the same old playbook, right?

00:10:06.020 So what they're doing is the Democrats are going to try to block out any independents or any good voices.

00:10:11.820 So they're going to put this debate together.

00:10:14.300 It's happening next week at USC.

00:10:15.840 It's private.

00:10:16.760 They're going to avoid all of the legal ramifications of having a public debate where everyone gets equal time.

00:10:22.360 They've handpicked all their candidates so that they can have two rise above.

00:10:26.180 It will be Swalwell and Mahan, who are funded by all the big billionaires in tech and all that.

00:10:31.400 And they're going to try to block Caruso, what's his name, Hilton and Chad Bianco.

00:10:36.100 They're going to try to block them.

00:10:37.500 And someone like me, who would win the debate if I was at a podium, they will never let in.

00:10:42.280 It's like this race of the tallest midget. 0.97

00:10:45.400 It's ridiculous. 1.00

00:10:46.840 They're polling at like 12%, 8%, 7%, and they're at a microphone. 0.83

00:10:53.560 Now, Elaine, why is this?

00:10:55.020 Because I think the consensus among a lot of people that don't live in California is that it's a foregone thing, that California is blue as it comes.

00:11:03.200 All the Republicans moved out, all the Republican money moved out, that no Republican stands a chance.

00:11:07.800 But in one poll that I saw this morning, Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco were the top two candidates.

00:11:12.080 And what's interesting to me is that California uses this top two primary system where the two highest vote-getters, regardless of party, move on to the general election.

00:11:19.900 which means the Democrats risk being shut out in November if they don't have someone in those top two.

00:11:24.500 How does this work? I mean, that's kind of a crazy system.

00:11:26.500 Do Democrats gamble on the fact that it would always be two Democrats in those top two slots?

00:11:31.360 I think that that's where it went wrong. Exactly.

00:11:34.480 It's called a jungle primary, and it's the one opportunity for someone like me to actually get in charge.

00:11:39.600 Somebody who's like a business person who can do math, that understands a budget and a balance sheet, a schedule of values.

00:11:45.340 god forbid i should get in someone like me who says yes audit everything that's been stolen we

00:11:51.700 need to find the 750 billion dollars it's missing that's why they're going to block it because this

00:11:57.000 jungle primary allows for someone like me pulling at 4.6 as an independent which is as high as katie

00:12:03.680 porter and chad bianco who've been in the race by the way for well over a year i just got in about

00:12:09.060 20 days ago. Why did I get in? Because the bench is so shallow, it's like a puddle, number one.

00:12:15.320 Number two, if any of these guys win, they can't run the state.

00:12:19.460 So Elaine, tell me the top two or three issues that you feel are the most important issues right

00:12:25.280 now with California. You mentioned auditing it. I think every state should have a doge. Personally,

00:12:28.540 I think we've seen that. We need to see where corruption is, where waste, fraud, and abuse

00:12:32.020 exist. For you, if you're speaking to the people of California, which you undoubtedly have, but

00:12:36.420 just to the rest of the country right now,

00:12:38.260 what are the top two or three things

00:12:39.620 that California needs fixing

00:12:40.760 that you specifically can solve?

00:12:42.960 Okay, so very important question.

00:12:45.080 Number one, I filmed this thing called Mayors Matter

00:12:47.320 and I talked to 48 mayors across the state out of 52.

00:12:50.860 All of them say the same two things.

00:12:52.500 These are mayors running California,

00:12:54.400 Democratic, Republican, and independent.

00:12:56.460 We need two things, okay?

00:12:57.880 We need safe streets and economic development, 0.87

00:13:01.340 safe streets and economic development.

00:13:03.140 there is no interest in all of this polarizing stuff about transing children or it's not

00:13:09.220 interesting to them they want to have business in their streets we have no businesses all of

00:13:13.820 our businesses are closed there's they have unfunded mandates in sacramento they all need

00:13:18.180 to be abolished they're stealing land they have put all of our money into middlemen ngos special

00:13:24.120 interest and non-profit all of that money is missing it's upwards of 750 billion dollars

00:13:29.300 When it was asked to be audited, Gavin Newsom, he vetoed it.

00:13:33.400 They've taken away Bradley Burns' tax on online sales.

00:13:36.560 This has taken all of our money away.

00:13:38.300 The trial lawyers cost each family $3,000 a month.

00:13:41.680 In expensive cities, $9,000 a month.

00:13:44.220 This cannot be remedied by Democrats and Republicans because trial lawyers, guess what?

00:13:48.800 They fund Democrats and Republicans.

00:13:50.820 The reality is we are going to do an exact repeat of what we already did with Swalwell.

00:13:55.380 He has no difference.

00:13:56.200 In fact, I think he might be less charismatic and worse than Newsom.

00:14:00.000 And Elaine, I'm curious.

00:14:01.500 This week, one of the biggest things we saw was this 40-minute video from Nick Shirley

00:14:05.980 exposing some of this fraud in Medicare and Medicaid and stuff like this.

00:14:10.120 What has the response from California residents been like regarding this, and what are they saying?

00:14:16.940 Clearly, they are blown away.

00:14:19.220 Don't think that they don't know.

00:14:20.520 We don't know what to do about it.

00:14:22.180 I always say that Democrats are offensive analysts.

00:14:24.160 We have been nice.

00:14:26.200 we have been donating our money. Corporate donors, these huge corporate donors control the narrative.

00:14:31.900 That's why the billionaires are leaving over this billionaire's tax. This is crazy. They pay 47%

00:14:37.020 of our general fund. We depend on billionaires, 47%. Out of 17.5 million taxpayers, okay,

00:14:45.580 the money that we pay, someone like me, it takes me four years to buy one Patriot missile.

00:14:50.540 Think about how unsustainable it is. We lose the billionaires. They're gone over this billionaire's tax. We are going to lose $122 billion a year in our general budget. We are not focused on things like this. There's no narrative for it. Why? Because we get blocked by the billionaires who pay all the donors and all of the donors who pay for the politicians. There's no middle ground. We're going to get blocked out again. We need you guys here.

00:15:18.060 Elaine, speaking of billionaires, I want to get your reaction to a CBS story.

00:15:21.720 I don't know if we have it to pull up on the screen just yet, but it's from Twitter,

00:15:25.980 and it's a CBS news story that says the FBI and IRS are going to be investigating nonprofits linked to Antifa.

00:15:32.160 This is a big deal.

00:15:33.240 Jack Pesobo has been talking about this for quite some time.

00:15:35.460 Here it is right here.

00:15:36.140 You can see this.

00:15:36.720 There's the headline, FBI and IRS to investigate nonprofit groups for domestic terrorism links, sources say,

00:15:42.400 especially tax fraud crimes.

00:15:44.520 You're in a state where Antifa has been big.

00:15:46.940 The whole West Coast is. I'm curious what you think about your reaction, your reaction to this particular story and whether you think that there are nonprofit groups in California that could be held accountable as a result of some of these investigations.

00:16:00.260 OK, first of all, when the Tax Act and Jobs Act in 2017 was passed, people like me who had donation lines on my tax credit on my tax form were taken away.

00:16:12.300 They basically said you can still have a deduction, but you need to send 100 percent of your taxes to the federal government.

00:16:18.560 During that time, 37 million households across the United States and 20 billion dollars a year went into funds unchecked by people like me.

00:16:25.920 OK, so the money that's now going to Antifa and places like that is because it's completely unchecked with NGOs.

00:16:31.760 And not only that, it's by design. The Biden administration set these things up so they can't be audited.

00:16:36.320 They have no requirements to be audited.

00:16:38.580 Once the money arrives into any kind of slush fund, if Antifa is in there, you would never know it because they are not under audit requirements, even though they are acting as a non-government, non-government agency, okay?

00:16:51.360 An organization that is non-government, they have no requirements to do an audit.

00:16:56.160 What do you think is going to happen?

00:16:57.780 Of course the money is going to go to chairism.

00:16:59.880 There's no way to stop it, and no one's asking the question.

00:17:02.720 Speaking of it in the artistic community, I have to say this just because I lived in the Hollywood area for about five years.

00:17:07.440 I know you're very dialed into the Hollywood scene and motion pictures and TV.

00:17:11.940 Did you see one battle after another?

00:17:15.160 Yeah, I did not. 0.86

00:17:16.660 Okay, so I'm curious only because as it won Best Picture at the Oscars recently, this whole film is complete garbage in terms of it basically supports an Antifa-like group, the very things we're going through right now. 0.83

00:17:29.980 And it's reminded me that the entire group of Hollywood, and you're sitting in this state which has these bubbles of liberalism, awarding a film, giving it best picture, best director, best adapted screenplay for something that completely glorifies Antifa. 0.71

00:17:43.200 And I think that's art replicating life.

00:17:45.920 It is.

00:17:46.540 The problem people don't understand is like you live in Hollywood to be an actor and to work in that industry, and you have watched your industry be completely strip-minded and taken from you.

00:17:56.080 and then the people that control you are the people that hire you which are the big studios

00:18:00.080 and the studios are under all these dei you know mandates essentially we are a mandated state okay

00:18:06.480 sacramento mandates everything including sanctuary cities sb 7-9 all of the homeless programs

00:18:12.700 everything is mandated and these mandates are unfunded and this includes dei not just in

00:18:17.540 hollywood but also in schools and all of these actors who are really pretty nice people you know

00:18:22.360 just want to earn a living and get their voice out there they are all under the same mandates

00:18:26.540 imagine and they're in these movies that don't have any originality and are scripted based on

00:18:30.980 a very specific narrative and then the oscars happened and as you can see it was poorly attended

00:18:35.160 it was even the clothes i mean everything was just bad why did chanel bounce the day after

00:18:40.740 the oscars maybe they didn't want to be on the oscars i don't know but my feeling is that industry

00:18:45.640 has been completely strip-mined of any type of individuality and true creativeness.

00:18:52.040 I agree with you, Elaine.

00:18:53.200 And interestingly enough, you're saying that you're not allowed on this debate on the 24th.

00:18:57.180 I got to ask, finally, I mean, does a former mistress of Eric Swalwell,

00:19:01.080 the great Chinese spy Fang Fang, does she get to make the debate?

00:19:04.260 I mean, what are the qualifications at this point if you can't make it?

00:19:07.340 Who do I have to sleep with to get on this debate?

00:19:10.120 Exactly.

00:19:10.940 Exactly.

00:19:11.240 That's the Hollywood way. 0.99

00:19:12.080 That's the casting couch, apparently.

00:19:13.780 Ask Eric Swalwell about that.

00:19:15.220 Thank you, Elaine, so much for being on Human Events Daily.

00:19:17.280 Thank you.

00:19:18.960 We'll be right back with more HED coming up.

00:19:30.260 You talk about influencers.

00:19:32.140 These are influencers.

00:19:34.060 And they're friends of mine.

00:19:36.380 Jack Rusovic.

00:19:37.920 Where's Jack?

00:19:38.840 Jack.

00:19:39.960 He's done a great job.

00:19:42.320 All right, let me tell you something, guys.

00:19:43.340 if you're anything like me, you have been up late in the evening pretty much every evening for the

00:19:50.420 last three weeks. And I know what you're doing. You're doing the same thing I'm doing. You're

00:19:53.980 monitoring the situation. You're constantly there. You're doom scrolling. You got to keep

00:19:58.940 monitoring. You got to wake up. But then, oh, my gosh, suddenly you look at the clock. It's 2 a.m.

00:20:04.400 It's 3 a.m. And you know what? You got to get the kids up in just a couple of hours because you got

00:20:09.500 to get them to school. You got to figure out what's going on. You got to get to work. You got

00:20:13.140 to deal with the spouse, which of course I love to deal with. It's the favorite, my favorite thing

00:20:17.580 in the world. How do you do that? How do you maintain your readiness? How do you maintain

00:20:22.440 your get up and go? Let me tell you what I do. I do it with blackout coffee. That is what powers

00:20:47.220 that one yet but that's the one that's next on my list because the brutal awakening has been that i

00:20:52.240 thought that was the highest level that i was willing to go to pitch black espresso takes it

00:20:56.480 to the very next level and if you're going to be doing as much situation monitoring as me

00:21:01.480 you might have to do it they've also got the 1776 dark roast they've got the two-way they even have

00:21:07.020 more medium roast and light roast you can get whatever you want it's absolutely phenomenal i

00:21:12.220 love this stuff. You're going to love it too. The coffee is great. Just remember the coffee is

00:21:51.300 Blackoutcoffee.com slash POSO. All right. Welcome back to Human Events Daily. Bo and Benny here

00:21:56.260 holding down the fort for the great Jack Posobiec. Benny, I want to kind of dive into this Antifa

00:22:00.520 story a little bit more. And guys, if you wouldn't mind putting the tweet back up there

00:22:03.560 from Jennifer Jacobs. This is from CBS. She says the scoop is that FBI and IRS agents are forming

00:22:08.940 a new initiative to investigate non-profit organizations over suspected possible links

00:22:13.720 to domestic terrorism. Sources briefed on the matter told Sarah Lynch and me at CBS News.

00:22:18.700 So just a little backstory on this, Benny, and for our viewers. In December, Attorney General

00:22:22.620 Pam Bondi ordered law enforcement agencies and federal prosecutors to prioritize efforts to

00:22:27.220 investigate and prosecute groups and individuals who belong to the anti-fascist Antifa movement

00:22:31.940 or are deemed, quote, extremist. The memo asked law enforcement agents to consider potential tax

00:22:37.040 crimes in which extremist groups are suspected of defrauding the Internal Revenue Service.

00:22:41.660 This coordinated effort allows agencies to leverage their respective strengths,

00:22:46.040 including IRS CI specialized expertise in financial investigations to support enforcement

00:22:51.200 actions and safeguard national security. So the new Mission Control Command Center that is probing

00:22:56.520 nonprofits will be based at the FBI with agents from IRS criminal investigation working on one

00:23:01.840 year temporary assignments, one of the sources added. Now, it's not clear, I guess, who will be

00:23:06.020 targeted for this. But Bondi's memo instructed all federal law enforcement agencies to scour

00:23:10.420 their files for intelligence on Antifa groups and forward it to the FBI. Benny, this is big

00:23:15.500 because you mentioned to me, you know, Jack Posobiec was at the Antifa roundtable with

00:23:19.960 President Trump. What came out of that? Because I know Jack's been talking about this for a long

00:23:24.280 time. It's one of the reasons he's been so explosive on this front. How important is it

00:23:29.440 to get some of these groups to get their funding and the fact that there could be tax fraud crimes

00:23:34.540 against them? Well, Jack has always been one of, I mean, I feel like he really started part of the

00:23:39.780 going after Antifa movement. I mean, he was going undercover in these cells and he was on the front

00:23:44.460 lines with this. And so when President Trump, they put this round table together because the

00:23:49.460 president, he wanted to understand this violence that is coming through specifically after Charlie

00:23:53.760 died. It was this round table happened very, I mean, within a couple of weeks and he had all of

00:23:58.720 these different frontline individuals and Jack was one of them. And he was telling going, Jack was

00:24:03.680 going through explaining the times and the danger that he was in going through this. And the other

00:24:10.620 big thing, like you're talking about, is the movement of money. Now, this is the big conversation

00:24:14.740 because it has to be coming from somewhere. They are getting, they are being financed by, I mean,

00:24:19.880 these are well-financed groups. This goes back to Black Lives Matter. This goes back to these 0.94

00:24:24.300 massive organizations. And people just think they're just, oh, protesters, and they're just

00:24:29.640 out doing whatever they're doing, but it doesn't work like that. And so P.M. Bondi and the DOJ

00:24:34.680 going after this, I think it's probably one of the most important things that we've seen.

00:24:39.460 Yeah, it is. And I just want to make the comment, too, that to date there have been relatively few

00:24:43.040 public criminal cases involving Antifa, but you may remember the most prominent was in northern

00:24:47.640 Texas, where nine people accused of being part of a so-called Antifa cell were convicted earlier

00:24:52.760 this month for their roles in using weapons and explosives, providing material support to

00:24:56.680 terrorist obstruction and attempted murder of an Alvarado police officer and correctional

00:25:01.860 officer at the Prairie Land Ice Detention Center.

00:25:03.640 And I just got to say, Ben, just with our last guest, with Elaine there and talking

00:25:06.400 about this, that as I thought about watching this movie, One Battle After Another, which

00:25:10.920 I like Paul Thomas Anderson.

00:25:12.300 He's a good director.

00:25:13.000 He's made some great movies.

00:25:14.260 But I couldn't believe that he talked about he thought it was a moral duty to pass this

00:25:18.800 on to his kids.

00:25:19.740 And as I watched this movie, for those of you who haven't seen it, and it's a long,

00:25:22.380 long movie it is supporting the basic things that antifa is responsible for uh so you know i i just

00:25:30.000 i find the fact that the academy gave an award to a movie and a group of people that so uh support

00:25:36.620 a movement like antifa i i find to be just abominable i do want to bring in our guest

00:25:40.600 though rich barris i believe is here he's uh a great pollster and a great friend of the show

00:25:44.660 and a great friend of real america's voice rich how are you living the dream how you guys doing

00:25:48.520 today. Thanks for having me. We're doing great. Rich, tell us some of the local elections that

00:25:52.600 you're keeping focus on right now that we need to be paying attention to. Well, before we go

00:25:58.120 into the future, I honestly would point at the past. We have some very key Senate races that

00:26:04.040 are going to tell us a lot about where voters are right now. And honestly, the two most important

00:26:10.020 ones that have happened and we were waiting for happened recently, which was I think North

00:26:14.820 Carolina and Texas. Why? Because one was a quintessential battleground state. It's been

00:26:19.960 read at the presidential level, but we've seen very competitive Senate races. It's about as

00:26:24.300 purple as you get when it comes to that and the gubernatorial contests that has elected Democrats.

00:26:28.840 And the other one, which is Texas, which because of course, if Democrats think they're going to 0.55

00:26:33.720 have a banner year, they'll throw a lot of money into Texas. And what we did see in Texas,

00:26:38.960 it was, it was significant. You know, Democrats did vote in considerable numbers and some of the

00:26:46.340 demographic groups were keeping an eye on, especially Hispanic voters, new Trump, Hispanic

00:26:50.700 voters did seem to participate quite a bit in that democratic primary. Rich, hang on with us if you

00:26:56.140 would, because we're going to carry you over to the next block. I want to go back to California

00:26:59.280 as well, because we, with our last guest, we talked about California. I want to know more

00:27:03.060 about that. So let's keep you on, bring you back in just a moment. And guys, we'll be right back

00:27:06.860 with more Human Events Daily.

00:27:30.140 Where is Jack?

00:27:32.480 Where is Jack?

00:27:34.800 Where is he?

00:27:36.200 Jack, I want to see you.

00:27:39.840 Great job, Jack.

00:27:41.280 Thank you.

00:27:42.000 What a job you do.

00:27:43.440 You know, we have an incredible thing.

00:27:44.840 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the guys who should be getting Pulisic.

00:27:51.680 Welcome back to Human Events Daily.

00:27:53.660 Bo Davidson and Benny Ray Harmony here.

00:27:55.140 We still have Rich Barris, which we brought in back from the last block because we didn't get much time with him.

00:28:00.160 Rich, based on our private conversation with Elaine Collati, who is running as an independent in California,

00:28:04.640 This is a fascinating race because, as I said to her, I think a lot of Republicans and conservatives think that, you know, California is a foregone conclusion.

00:28:13.360 It's blue.

00:28:14.860 A Republican can't win there, yet Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco hold the top two places, which means they could ice a Democrat out because they're not consolidating behind Eric Swalwell.

00:28:24.600 Is this a real possibility?

00:28:26.460 And explain to me the differences in demographics that have happened even since 2018.

00:28:30.060 Yeah, I'm glad you bring up California because this is one of the more interesting races that we have coming up as opposed to the ones we talked about last segment that already happened. And the reason why is, you know, in 2018, this was we do think about this as a big blue state.

00:28:43.960 You had Travis Allen and John Cox trying to split the vote, and then you had Gavin Newsom on the Democratic side with Mayor Villagorosa, and Mayor Villagorosa eventually collapsed, and Gavin Newsom was able to take the standard bearer, right?

00:28:54.920 And you had John Cox, who got the endorsement of President Trump at the time, but Travis Allen had this core base that didn't want to vote for Cox.

00:29:01.860 But for people who don't know, you can ice a party out because it's the top vote-getters advancing.

00:29:07.280 That's the way the rules are in California.

00:29:08.820 So if Democrats, because the roles are reversed this time, we have three top voting vote getting Democrats and two top vote getting Republicans.

00:29:16.940 And if Democrats don't consolidate there, they could get iced out here because it's a different state demographically than it was in 2018.

00:29:24.940 And even with vote preference, it's interesting.

00:29:27.760 This is something I mentioned during the break in 2020 when we saw so many battleground states move toward the left or toward Joe Biden.

00:29:33.840 California kept shifting to the right.

00:29:35.640 It's been happening under the radar for many years, and if this trend continues, what it means is that Democrats have got to learn, even in a big blue state, to consolidate behind a candidate.

00:29:46.380 Otherwise, they could split the vote too much and end up with two Republicans running.

00:29:50.180 Rich, what is the likelihood of that happening?

00:29:51.920 I mean, I'm trying to look at this with glass half full here, but I mean, how likely is it?

00:29:57.000 Because eventually the Democrats are going to realize, especially in the money, they've got to get behind Swalwell.

00:30:01.320 But he's not a very likable guy.

00:30:03.580 And so I'm just wondering, how likely is it? I mean, Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco surely know this.

00:30:08.100 They know that the top two vote getters move on. How likely is that to happen?

00:30:12.760 This likelihood based on two things in my mind. One is Republican turnout.

00:30:17.560 You know, in California, typically there could be lower turnout for Republicans in off cycle years like this.

00:30:22.760 But if they don't do that, and again, some of these demographics that are voting in Republican primaries are changing over time.

00:30:28.380 So if they get out the vote in sufficient numbers, which, you know, there's mixed evidence so far on how Republicans and Democrats have been voting.

00:30:37.320 But if they do do that, then, of course, it increases the likelihood.

00:30:40.700 The other thing, the other factor Republicans have no control over, and that's what you just mentioned, which is whether or not Democrats get their act together.

00:30:48.160 And here's one of the reasons, you know, if you're a Republican, it gives you a little ray of hope.

00:30:51.960 Democrats, as well as they have been doing in special elections, are leaderless and they're in disarray.

00:30:56.720 Gavin Newsom, ironically, the outgoing governor, he's been trying to take that mantle of leader, but it doesn't really seem to be where even in his own backyard, he hasn't been able to corral a base of his own.

00:31:09.160 He hasn't been able to command the loyalty of a segment of the Democratic coalition that could help a candidate in this race like that.

00:31:16.820 So, I mean, one thing is completely in Republican control. They get out to vote and they have a lot of control over this. They can have a great impact.

00:31:26.060 The other is really on Democrats. And, you know, that remains to be seen. But I do think that it's more possible than people realize. The Central Valley is not blue anymore. Right. Once upon a time, that was the case. Orange County, very swingy. It was trending Democratic, but it moved back under President Trump a little bit.

00:31:45.040 So, you know, there's a lot of there's a lot in flux in that state, I guess, is the point I'm trying to make.

00:31:50.380 And if they can get that Central Valley vote out, then you leave Democrats effectively fighting over two metropolitan areas, which is a lot of votes in.

00:31:59.220 Don't get me wrong. But it's not a place you want that.

00:32:02.420 Rich, what is some of the latest polling that you have?

00:32:04.460 If you could give us kind of a sneak peek of Americans feelings towards Iran.

00:32:07.720 This has shifted, even has fractured, of course, MAGA.

00:32:11.080 It has fractured a lot of the conservatives who say, hey, wait a minute, Trump said no

00:32:14.760 foreign wars, as opposed to those who believe in the mission of this overall.

00:32:18.000 What are you seeing in some of your polling?

00:32:19.940 Polling Iran has been really fascinating for a pollster.

00:32:22.700 And you get bored after a while asking, do you approve or disapprove, right?

00:32:26.040 It gets real monotonous.

00:32:27.180 But it's interesting because it's changing who's identifying as MAGA.

00:32:31.180 It's changing the size of that coalition.

00:32:33.220 It's changing, you know, the race, age, you know, the demographic subgroups that we've

00:32:38.820 been measuring and tracking for years with that identification. Ultimately, Republicans and

00:32:44.540 people who voted for President Trump in November of 24, they want to get behind him, right? But

00:32:51.340 the fact of the matter is they didn't vote for foreign conflicts. So there is a section of his

00:32:56.960 vote that is struggling with this a lot. The problem, I think, the biggest problem that I

00:33:01.180 see for the president is that the rally around the flag effect that he got. And when we first

00:33:05.660 poll this before it happened. It was 70% opposed, only a little over 20% supported. He has gotten

00:33:12.040 a rally around the flag. We're going to release a poll very soon showing, you know, where that's

00:33:16.320 come, but it's a weak one. Historically, it's a very, very weak one. So what the president's

00:33:21.720 advisor should be telling him is that, you know, you have limited time to sew this thing up before

00:33:27.320 it can really get on. It's already unpopular with independents. It's unpopular with Democrats

00:33:32.280 And it's unpopular with a part of his own coalition.

00:33:36.280 So, I mean, the clock is ticking on how long this can be drawn out without causing severe political damage.

00:33:44.580 And, Rich, I saw something on CNN the other day, actually, and it was talking about, you know, the 100 percent of MAGA supports President Trump, right?

00:33:53.100 Going forward, I mean, these next few years are really important.

00:33:56.220 And obviously, you know that you spend a lot of time looking at all of this.

00:33:59.300 where, I mean, Beau, I know he kind of just spoke about that. Where does that leave MAGA going into

00:34:04.360 the midterms, going into even 2028? I just want, I'm so glad you brought that up because I got to

00:34:10.180 tell you, I find this funny that after 10 years of pollsters all over legacy media failing to

00:34:15.860 poll President Trump precisely because they could not poll the MAGA coalition are suddenly these

00:34:21.340 authorities on polling MAGA, right? And all of my pollster friends, you know, yesterday when we saw

00:34:27.140 that clip we were just laughing harry enton is not a dumb guy when it comes to statistics getting 0.93

00:34:33.380 a hundred percent of a subgroup something that large is basically impossible it was just ludicrous

00:34:39.360 on its face it reminded me of quinnipiac in 2020 polling and saying that donald trump had zero 0.91

00:34:44.900 percent of the black vote right or two percent it's just ridiculous on its face um i think this 0.72

00:34:51.100 is a real danger to the president's coalition going forward. It's a little bit funny because 0.96

00:34:57.040 a year ago, we would have polled and asked, who is, do you identify as America first? Do you

00:35:01.120 identify as MAGA? And the group of people that would have said yes to that was younger, less

00:35:06.860 white, right? Than the group that is saying it now. So that's why I said it is an interesting

00:35:12.960 time for a pollster because there's so much going on. But at the end of the day, the group now that

00:35:18.680 is the most loyal to the president is not enough to win an election and that is the most important

00:35:23.460 part of all of this that's you know the the new MAGA these other people that he risks losing in

00:35:28.540 the coalition they are how he got from negative four and a half percent in the popular vote to

00:35:33.580 about a point and a half they are that difference so uh I mean that it's horrible to say but

00:35:39.680 honestly sometimes when it comes to politics this is a game of addition and sometimes some voters

00:35:44.440 really do matter more than others when you're considering what to do in decision making.

00:35:48.680 You need to win to affect your policies, right? You need to win to advance, you know, your

00:35:53.580 to advance down the field, to advance your agenda down the field. So it is important. It does matter.

00:35:59.120 I know it's obviously a difficult thing to juggle. It's coalition building. It's tough. But at the

00:36:05.600 end of the day, these voters are going to want to feel heard. And I've never seen, I don't think we

00:36:09.580 have, any of us have a president basically pull a trigger on a military action that was so

00:36:14.300 unpopular without making a case first. And we're in uncharted waters. And I think people should be

00:36:18.940 very conscious of that. So what kind of a time frame is he on then, Rich? Because I said from

00:36:24.680 the beginning, it's going to have to be quick, but it's not quick like Venezuela was quick. It's much 0.96

00:36:28.700 more complex than that. And we're seeing that now with the choke on the Strait of Hormuz,

00:36:33.340 so many of the things geopolitically going on. I do think that the coalition building of the

00:36:37.160 Gulf states prior to this with Jared Kushner and Abraham Accords was very important in this.

00:36:41.520 But at the same time, middle class and lower class Americans are feeling the pain at the pump.

00:36:46.040 They want to know, wait a minute, if we've got all these great natural resources, why are we still paying high gas prices?

00:36:50.860 So I think you make a very great point about this fracture and what could happen in the midterms.

00:36:55.840 I know we think of things always politically and what's going to happen.

00:36:58.120 But what kind of a time frame is President Trump on?

00:37:00.420 Because the more losses of life that you have, God help us that we have no more, but war is war.

00:37:05.860 He said casualties may be a part of this.

00:37:07.520 What kind of a time frame and what kind of foreign policy do you have to put forth so that your people understand the overall mission in addition to the losses that you're going to have temporarily?

00:37:18.360 Yeah, I, you know, not to sound negative, but I do think we're in a situation right now where we should be thinking about this, that we're already on borrowed time as far as, you know, taking risks.

00:37:29.440 Like how much time do we have in order to course correct and go in a different direction?

00:37:34.560 I think we're getting very close.

00:37:35.840 You know, some of these questions are actually better for an economist.

00:37:38.620 How many days do we have with the straight close still before it really impacts the price of gas?

00:37:44.060 I'm sure we all have seen it at the pump already.

00:37:46.000 It has.

00:37:46.860 But, Rich, just in the sake of brevity, because we only have about 40 seconds left with you,

00:37:51.000 the more the time goes on, the more this drags out.

00:37:53.540 You're saying the poll numbers are going to reflect negatively for the president with each passing day.

00:37:57.780 Absolutely.

00:37:58.640 It'll get worse as this time goes on.

00:38:01.080 Wow.

00:38:01.480 All right.

00:38:01.900 Well, Rich, thank you so much for your expert insight on polling and all things data.

00:38:06.800 You're great at that.

00:38:07.400 And we got into some other subjects, too, that we really appreciate that, especially California.

00:38:10.700 That race is very, very intriguing.

00:38:12.280 Rich, thank you so much for your time today.

00:38:14.840 And we'll be right back with more Human Events Daily just after.

00:38:17.200 all this the jack basobic appreciation hour i can say confidently i believe i think josh

00:38:35.120 shapiro would be the vice presidential nominee if it wasn't for jack basobic and that that is

00:38:38.980 I'll be honest. 1.00

00:38:45.140 Welcome back to Human Events Daily.

00:38:46.920 I am Benny Harmony alongside Bo Davidson.

00:38:49.600 And we actually just got word of Benjamin Netanyahu is discussing this Iran conflict right now.

00:38:54.720 So we're going to go over there and take a look at this.

00:39:08.980 while dealing with the major group of 낙吉, we have achieved numerous numerous competitions

00:39:15.460 for the day today.

00:39:18.600 We retained kerana , Gordon, our political field, the state and province, and

00:39:22.280 the passaj right now.

00:39:24.380 Only last days we retained the Sergeant Alili Eridz's During Kait Wright, the Said

00:39:31.020 Chief and the Sergeant Sergeant, and these are the people who dominate

00:39:35.320 So, of course, that was the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu,

00:39:40.240 who was speaking on the conflict in Iran.

00:39:41.740 We don't have translation for that, which is why we're coming out of it.

00:39:44.240 Otherwise, I know a lot of our American viewers will not understand what he's saying.

00:39:47.200 So we want to make sure that we're giving credence to that.

00:39:49.600 But also, we want to discuss some other topics.

00:39:51.460 And we have from the post-millennial Libby Emmons.

00:39:54.480 Libby, good to have you with us today.

00:39:56.620 Thanks so much. I really appreciate it.

00:39:58.460 Absolutely. Well, Libby, let's talk about it.

00:39:59.840 Let's dive in more of this Antifa and the report that came out about this.

00:40:02.900 I want to get your take on it, because I know you know a lot about it.

00:40:05.120 And I kind of just want to give you the floor to talk about these investigations, where you think they will go, if a George Soros group could be finally held accountable.

00:40:12.180 Where do you see this?

00:40:13.700 I think this is absolutely great.

00:40:15.200 I'm really excited that the FBI and the IRS are teaming up to get to the bottom of this.

00:40:19.200 A lot of Antifa groups and leftist groups that engage in violence, you know, they undertake these charity organization statuses that they can get from the IRS.

00:40:30.120 and you apply and then you're a designated charity and you can go through and, you know,

00:40:35.380 get donations from everybody. And so it'll be really interesting to see what the IRS and the

00:40:41.120 FBI can uncover because of this, excuse me, what they can team up and find. But they're not going

00:40:47.240 to find everything because a lot of Antifa groups operate on a mutual aid kind of principle instead

00:40:52.440 where people give them money, but it's not tax deductible or people give them donations of

00:40:57.440 things that are not tax-deductible. So it's sort of a combo, but I do think that something will

00:41:03.620 come of it, and I'm looking forward to that. And so Libby, you've been writing and doing

00:41:09.380 stories about Antifa in these cells and groups for years now, leading up to this bombshell report

00:41:15.820 that we're seeing. Talk to us a little bit about some of those things that you have seen, some of

00:41:21.180 the stories that you can share with us to really give our viewers and just the American people an

00:41:25.160 understanding of how deep these Antifa organizations go. Yeah, and the people that I work with at the

00:41:32.040 Postal Millennial really have a deep expertise in this, and I've been very blessed and grateful to

00:41:37.000 get to work with them and hear what they've been working on and then edit their work and talk to

00:41:41.300 them about it. That's Andy Ngo, Katie Davis Court, Jack Posobiec at Human Events, and also Ari Hoffman

00:41:46.400 have really dug into this, and it's been fascinating to see their work continue to grow. Three of them

00:41:52.820 were at the president's Antifa roundtable in the fall.

00:41:56.160 But what we see is a changing apparatus of Antifa.

00:42:00.240 They are able to grow and adjust

00:42:02.940 based on how they're being targeted.

00:42:04.920 We saw just recently with the anti-ice stuff,

00:42:08.200 Antifa members started donning these like,

00:42:10.200 you know, buoyant balloon looking frog costumes, right?

00:42:14.620 And then that became this whole thing.

00:42:16.820 And actually you had Senator Ron Wyden and others

00:42:20.160 hosting the frog costume.

00:42:21.900 Antifa people when they had their backlash against the State of the Union address. So

00:42:25.780 it's really permeated. And Antifa will make those adjustments so that they become more palatable to

00:42:32.240 Americans. And they're always sort of putting someone between themselves and accountability.

00:42:38.020 So we saw in 2020, they had this wall of moms in Portland, where all the moms wore these yellow

00:42:43.900 shirts and linked arms. And they were standing between Antifa and the federal government,

00:42:51.140 essentially federal law enforcement, while Antifa would then go try and set fire to the

00:42:56.320 courthouse building in Antifa in Portland, which they did for 100 straight nights that summer in

00:43:01.800 2020. So it's been really interesting to see. There's so much that happens there. We recently

00:43:07.540 saw in France, and this is something that both Jack and Andy were talking about, there was a

00:43:12.180 young man, Quentin, who was killed by Antifa. He was beaten to death in the streets because he was

00:43:17.520 working with women who were nationalists and speaking out for women's rights and nationalism.

00:43:24.080 So Antifa is this global thing. It's sort of like a hydro where if you cut one head off,

00:43:29.520 there's another one that just jumps into place. It's a leaderless kind of organization by design

00:43:36.060 so that anyone can take up the helm and do that. People self-identify into this group.

00:43:41.780 It's easy to find information online about how you can be part of what they're doing or just

00:43:49.040 accelerate the kinds of actions that they are undertaking. And they also, this is a key thing

00:43:55.960 too, is it's never just one issue, right? The issue is always overthrowing the American government,

00:44:02.100 taking down imperialism, blah, blah, blah. It could be anything. It was BLM, trans, climate

00:44:07.680 justice, as they call it. There was COVID. These anti-fascists were the same ones who were 0.78

00:44:13.620 advocating for COVID lockdowns. And now you have the anti-ice stuff and whatever the new,

00:44:19.040 oh, and of course, you know, the Gaza stuff. So whatever the new cause du jour is, Antifa will be

00:44:25.480 on the left side of it. Libby, I'm curious, something you said earlier that was intriguing,

00:44:29.640 you said it's going to be tough to track down some of these people's funds because the way

00:44:32.920 that they're given. How do you do that? How do they track those types of funds? We know with

00:44:37.040 Terrorist cells obviously linking back to Iran, proxy wars.

00:44:40.140 I don't know, maybe those are easier to track.

00:44:41.640 Why is it so difficult to nail down where the money's coming from?

00:44:45.320 And I guess my second question to that would be, is this going to build up to be a big nothing burger again?

00:44:50.700 Will we actually see any perp walks?

00:44:52.200 Will we see arrests?

00:44:53.040 Will we see crimes being prosecuted?

00:44:54.780 Or have we been led down a path that may produce very little?

00:44:58.920 Well, I do think it's important to dig into the charity organizations that are designated by the IRS

00:45:04.080 that are actually political groups that are funding Antifa and are perhaps just Antifa

00:45:09.580 covers themselves or just covers for far left violent groups. I mean, there's that as well,

00:45:15.520 right? So that's something to look at in addition to the Antifa militant organizations.

00:45:20.840 So I do think that we will uncover things. I think we will uncover sources of funding that

00:45:26.300 have been charitably given. And I think perhaps charitable designation statuses will be removed

00:45:31.840 as they should be. Not everyone who's out there with a charitable designation should be

00:45:36.660 classified as a charity. That's a big problem. So there will be some of that, but I think some

00:45:42.220 funding will still remain. And so Libby, I want to ask you too, you know, just do you think that

00:45:49.160 anyone on the FBI or DOJ or IRS would ever come to someone like yourself, who is an authority on

00:45:55.060 this, to help them with these investigations? People like Jack Posobiec, people like Andy

00:45:58.560 know, who understand these organizations really, really well, because nobody knows it probably

00:46:02.220 better than you guys. Do you think there'll be a situation where they might reach out to you to

00:46:05.760 find out more information? Yeah, I think for sure. I mean, President Trump went directly to the

00:46:10.620 source, to the journalists who have been covering this, who have been risking their lives to cover

00:46:14.180 this over the years. And I think the FBI and the IRS would do well to reach out to Andy and Jack,

00:46:19.460 Katie, Savannah, Hernandez, and the rest of the people who are at that round table, and they

00:46:24.140 should. Absolutely. Well, Libby, I want to ask you, too, just your final thoughts just on this

00:46:31.560 particular issue, because now that we've seen this investigation, we know that it's happening now.

00:46:35.580 It was reported to CBS News. What's the likely outcome and how quickly do you think we could

00:46:40.340 actually see some actionable items on this? I mean, this is kind of new, but it's been developing

00:46:45.740 for a while. We saw there was a memo that came out from Pambani, I believe it was in December.

00:46:49.800 So how soon do you think that or how long of a project is this going to take? Maybe it's a

00:46:53.620 better question. I think it's going to take a while because you really have to identify the

00:46:58.360 charitable organizations that could be far-left violent groups instead of charities. You have to

00:47:03.680 identify that, figure out who they are, and then you have to track the funding. So these kinds of

00:47:08.660 sort of forensic accounting activities can certainly take a long time, but I think it'll

00:47:13.220 be worth it in the long run to go through those numbers, to go through those records and accounts

00:47:17.260 and tax returns and 990 forms and all the rest of it and really see what's going on there. And if

00:47:22.700 you have accountants who are into that kind of thing, they're going to have a lot of fun.

00:47:26.840 All right, Libby. Well, thank you so much for your time today. We really appreciate you.

00:47:29.700 Thanks, Libby. Thank you so much. Well, Benny, we've only got about a minute left. I think we

00:47:33.700 do want to mention that there is going to be a state dinner tonight with the Japanese Prime

00:47:37.020 Minister and President Trump. Can you tell us any about that? Yeah. So 7.15, there will be a

00:47:41.000 state dinner at the White House with the Prime Minister of Japan. Now, this doesn't really

00:47:45.800 happen too often. So I do believe this will be pretty big and hopefully press will be inside

00:47:50.460 there. So definitely be on the lookout for some questions and stuff happening. But lots more

00:47:55.340 coming on Capitol Hill these next couple weeks. So we will be here on the ground reporting right

00:47:59.600 here for you guys. Bo, it was fun to host with you today. Fill it in for Jack. It was a lot of fun.

00:48:04.500 It was, Jack. Thank you for your hospitality letting us go host today. We missed you, Jack.

00:48:07.720 And we've had a great time. Make sure you're paying attention to CPAC next week. All roads

00:48:12.080 lead to CPAC. All roads lead to CPAC. There's immense press coverage there as well as Real

00:48:15.500 America's Music. Some performers are going to be there. Comedian Rob Schneider. It's a big build

00:48:19.520 up the biggest CPAC we've ever had. Don't miss it. Make sure you stay tuned next week. Thank you

00:48:23.680 guys for watching. We'll see you next time. We're Bo and Benny.
