00:04:01.840Oh, that's right. The green in the water fountain for the incredible St.
00:04:07.560Patrick's Day that we have. But that said, what is the state of Ireland right now?
00:04:13.980Well, let's talk about the state of Ireland because the state of Ireland is in a state of danger.
00:04:21.640And Ireland is in a state of danger because since the year 2000, the foreign-born population has gone from 9% in the year 2000 all the way up to 22% in 2024, 2025.
00:04:39.020five. And the foreign population that's come in largely has been from the third world.
00:04:46.460That's more than one in five from Ireland, or excuse me, more than one in five are not
00:04:54.420from Ireland. And they're told by their people, including the president of Ireland,
00:05:00.500who was on TV earlier today, saying that anyone can be Irish, that there are Irish and new Irish
00:05:08.800No, I disagree with that. I fundamentally reject that. There is the Irish and that is it. The Irish people are the owners of Ireland. Every single blade of grass on the Emerald Isle belongs to the Irish people. And it always has. And it always will.
00:05:32.440A nation is its people. These things are very, very hard to create, and as we are seeing,
00:05:44.640very easy to destroy. So when you look at the history of St. Patrick, and you look at the
00:05:50.540history of what he did, bringing Christianity to Ireland, this Catholic priest, then later bishop,
00:05:57.520a former slave, comes to Ireland, teaches the Holy Trinity, being born in Roman Britain,
00:06:06.900and then going over, driving the snakes out. Yeah, we need to drive the snakes out, don't we, folks?
00:06:15.080Understand your history. Understand what makes you a nation. Does Ireland need cultural enrichment?
00:06:22.420No. Ireland has one of the richest cultures on the face of the planet.
00:06:28.000It's true. It's great. It's an incredible culture.
00:08:56.940Right now, you can get $200 off for a limited time if you use my link,
00:09:01.940CovePure.com slash POSO. That's C-O-V-E-P-U-R-E dot com slash POSO to start the new year right.
00:09:10.080All right. Well, very excited to bring in our next guest. Not the first time on the show,
00:09:14.720but the first time in her new capacity, the former assistant secretary of the Department
00:09:19.940of Homeland Security, Trisha McLaughlin. Trisha, how are you?
00:09:23.300Jack, it's great to be back with you. Good to see you.
00:09:25.600All right. You're adjusting to the new the new the new tempo, the new operational tempo there.
00:09:32.720Yes. Slower paced, that's for sure. But it's been good. It's been good to be with family and take a beat.
00:09:39.040All right. Well, we got to get you off the sidelines, because when when we're seeing this Save America Act that we're trying to push it through in the Senate,
00:09:48.140it. The House wants to do it. The Senate wants to do it. The president's called for it. Let's take
00:09:51.620a step back and let's let's actually look at the situation. I was just talking about Ireland and
00:09:57.880their immigration problems. We still face problems here in the United States regarding this because
00:10:03.320we have these illegal aliens on the rolls. We have so much more that the SAVE Act covers from your
00:10:08.460position at DHS. You had direct access to that information. So paint for us the picture of where
00:10:13.580things are now without the Save America Act. Yeah, I've yet to see a coherent argument on
00:10:19.240the other side why we should not pass the Save America Act. All 53 Republican senators should be
00:10:24.540doing just that. And it really does put our national security and, of course, our election
00:10:29.160integrity at risk that they're not willing to pass this. I mean, Jack, we've heard from
00:10:33.180Senator Schumer and a lot of these Democrat senators voicing concern that there would be
00:10:39.420ICE agents at the voting locations come election day, and that they were actually concerned about
00:10:47.520this when they're claiming that there are not non-citizens and illegal aliens voting.
00:10:53.940Part of Homeland Security beyond the immigration aspect is CISA, which safeguards our infrastructure,
00:10:59.660including our election infrastructure. That agency itself, while there's been great efforts
00:11:06.660to reform it, they've gone really off mission and were very focused on thwarting what they
00:11:15.440So we do have a massive problem outside of just voter ID and the election integrity space.
00:11:24.400John Solomon, who I have great respect for, a great reporter who I think you know well,
00:11:29.200he just came out with a report saying that in 2020.
00:11:31.880See, you're getting ahead of me because this was my second question.
00:11:35.520This is my follow up question. And I was going to say, so, you know, Tricia, we have this report from just the news and John's our colleague, John Solomon.
00:11:43.240But of course, because you you're you're already ahead of us. So, yes, please, if I can get you to comment on this, this report.
00:11:51.060So we're talking about the voter rolls here. China accessing the voter files because this is we know we're told that 2020.
00:11:58.620I remember Chris Krabs over at SISA, he kept saying over and over and over, 2020 was the most secure election.
00:12:09.780Well, and I'd love to remind viewers, too, Jack, remember, SISA was actually housed.
00:12:14.240What was that ministry of truth that the Biden administration introduced in 2021 and eventually purportedly shuttered based on public backlash?
00:12:22.780But there was a guy on a on a podcast called Human Events Daily who took a lot of exception to that to that board, the disinformation governments board and and a certain Nina Jankovic, who was going to be running it and possibly caused a little bit of a stir back in 2021 when all that happened.
00:12:47.360I can only imagine. No, Jack, thank you for your service and doing that and exposing it.
00:12:52.780You've exposed this and so many other really deep state issues and things that really imperil the American people, our freedom and our rights.
00:13:01.400As far as this report goes, it's yet to be determined, was the Chinese government able to actually infiltrate and alter those voter rolls?
00:13:13.280Was Iran? Was other adversarial nations? I think that's a really huge question that more information is going to have to come out about.
00:13:20.900No, I think it's exactly right. And so the story there, the questions about the Chinese having access to our voter files, which, by the way, I have to say just as a joke a little bit, that half joke, I suppose, that I know the president looks like he has postponed this meeting with Xi Jinping.
00:13:40.240Jane, you was expected to go at the end of the month there to Beijing.
00:13:42.900But I'm almost wondering if perhaps we can go to the Chinese Communist Party and ask them for help with the Save America Act,
00:13:49.220because if they have access to our voter rolls, maybe they can tell us where the illegals are on the voter rolls and we can just match those up and take it from there.
00:13:56.840Oh, you're exactly right. What a what a bleak state we're in.
00:14:01.160I mean, Schumer and these other Democrats, but also Republicans likening this to Jim Crow and saying that there is infringement upon married women.
00:14:09.960such as myself, newly married, because we wouldn't be able to use their drivers.
00:14:13.840Well, I was just thinking to ask, Trisha, you just got married.
00:14:45.960So what's really going on here politically?
00:14:48.500Why is it that we see so much of the establishment fight against these when, in truth, when we get polling back on this,
00:14:56.160these things like things like voter ID and getting illegals out of voting are so broadly supported by, by the way, all across the political spectrum.
00:15:04.24070% of Democrats, according to NBC, actually agree that we should have voter ID to vote and that you should be able to present your citizenship. So this really is a 90-10 issue.
00:15:18.860I think that they don't want to give the president any political wins as an extension of Trump derangement syndrome.
00:15:24.860But further, I do think that they know that there are cases where illegal aliens and people who should be voting, who should not be voting, are voting.
00:15:35.200And they want to continue to encourage that.
00:15:37.580There is a reason, Jack, in my opinion, that that border was flooded.
00:15:41.280And Joe Biden was waving people in that all of those Democrats in the 2024 primary, or excuse me, 2020 primary, were saying that they were going to give health care to illegal aliens and that it shouldn't be a crime to enter the country illegally.
00:15:55.480Those are their voters and they don't want to thwart them.
00:16:01.540That's the problem right there, is that they don't actually want to represent the American people.
00:16:07.920They don't actually want to stand up and do the right thing because there are too many entrenched interests that are enjoying the fruits of this because, I mean, and let's just be honest, there are people who are worried about the pressure that this is going to put on illegal aliens.
00:16:23.200And so Democrats, of course, don't want the voters. But unfortunately, there are many people from the Republican side that have ties to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and others that are very concerned because they know that the dirty little secret is that that cheap foreign labor is keeping a lot of their companies and a lot of their interests afloat.
00:16:41.200Oh, I completely agree. And the fact of the matter is you do hear it from the left, of course, but you also hear it from the right, especially, you know, of course, those Republican members who believe that we should be using essentially slave labor and these illegal aliens to cheapen wages, to cheapen the price of goods for us.
00:17:02.620But the fact of the matter is if illegal alien workforce was actually effective for our economy, then Joe Biden would have had a booming economy.
00:17:13.300Of course, he didn't have that when he flooded our country with 10 to 15 million illegal aliens.
00:17:18.520And we still had a crap economy. There is no correlation. And it's really just a cop out.
00:17:24.600No, that's exactly right. I remember someone saying that it's going to help with inflation if we have more people,
00:17:31.200because there's more people to spend the dollars.
00:17:34.280The arguments just completely fall apart every time you look at it
00:17:39.680because we know, by the way, that by and large with these illegals
00:17:42.780when they're coming in, they're not spending most of their money here.
00:17:47.380They're sending it back in remittances.
00:17:49.220So, you know, places like Springfield, Ohio,
00:17:51.040others where they've been hit by this,
00:17:53.520they don't even actually get the financial or economic benefit
00:17:58.180to the area that they always claim is going to come.
00:18:00.100Exactly. And Jack, to that end, there's actually a rule that just went into effect from the Department of Transportation just yesterday saying non-domiciled aliens, including those who are in this country illegally, will no longer have the option or right to have a commercial driver's license.
00:18:17.920This is very common sense when there's no longer these non-domiciled drivers. We don't have a record of what their driving is like. We don't know if they've had DUIs.
00:18:30.100oh i think we may have lost a little bit of a connection there with trisha i don't know
00:18:37.900perhaps it was the chinese communist party hacking into her uh her connection there but of course go
00:18:43.060give her a follow over at trisha ohio and it's great to see the great trisha mclaughlin staying
00:18:49.660in the fight human events daily we'll be right back
00:19:00.100Talk about influences. These are influences. And they're friends of mine. Jack Posobiec. Where's Jack? Jack. He's done a great job.
00:19:12.480All right, folks, Jack Posobiec here in the darkness.
00:19:19.420That's kind of interesting on Human Events Daily.
00:19:22.860We've got we're very excited to have our next guest.
00:19:56.400Oh, great to be with you, Jack. Thank you.
00:19:59.080All right. So are we losing the China war or the A.I. war to China? What do you say?
00:20:04.280We're not yet, but we've got to make sure that we stay ahead.
00:20:07.760We definitely have a lead because of our advancements in semiconductors and President Trump and Vice President Vance of doing an amazing job of really making sure that we have what we need to win that AI race.
00:20:22.580We saw with the DeepSeek R1 moment, that one day wipeout, biggest historic one day market cap loss when they rocked NVIDIA with a $600 billion market cap wipeout when they released DeepSeek.
00:22:20.860One of the things that people need to understand
00:22:22.900is that one of the things that AI in the defense tech space will really excel at,
00:22:29.120we often think of these sort of Hollywood things of Terminator with laser beam eyes and things.
00:22:34.260And certainly the autonomous warfare piece is important, and I talk about that.
00:22:38.800But the real thing that on a just broad and very, very effective level it is,
00:22:43.440is this mass scale pattern recognition.
00:22:46.920And so when you have all this intel information, all this intercepted communication,
00:22:51.000all of these audio and video and satellite,
00:22:53.660being able to quickly boil that down to actionable intel
00:22:58.380that used to take hundreds of human officers months to be able to do
00:23:04.020can be done in warp speed. That's a huge advantage for us. We've seen it being used
00:23:07.820right now with Iran. We've seen it used in the Maduro rate. But it also means,
00:23:11.980and that's your point, that democratization of that power and
00:23:16.000other nation states and non-state actors who obtain it,
00:23:20.040that also gives them massive leverage. I think the other thing, too.
00:23:24.540I was just going to ask, so China, we've actually
00:23:28.060been covering, and not a lot of people have talked about this, here at Human Events, we've been covering
00:23:32.100how China is using their AI functionality along with their new satellite technology to be able to
00:23:39.780provide images of the U.S. military as it's conducting this operation in Iran, whether it's
00:23:47.120the Ford, whether it's the USS Tripoli that's headed up through the Straits of Malacca right now
00:23:51.420with that 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit there, whether it's planes on the tarmac, they're
00:23:56.380potentially able to provide targeting for information to the Iranians. I mean, they are
00:24:00.860showing us a masterclass in real time, how they're able to pair their new technology with AI. And
00:24:06.580guess what? They're providing it for the entire world to see. They're bragging, aren't they?
00:24:11.420Absolutely. It's a muscle flex. You said it exactly right. And I think the other thing too
00:24:16.660is when you look at the resource allocation that they have poured into this, I think a lot of us
00:24:23.680probably wouldn't be aware. They spend, China spends more on semiconductor imports than they
00:24:30.100do on oil. So that just really shows you where their priorities are in that 2017 plan they laid
00:24:36.860out for 2030 dominance. The other thing that you take into consideration of that is telescoping
00:24:42.600this out as both superpowers are racing toward what's known as RSI, recursive self-improvement.
00:24:51.840And what is that? It is when an AI can autonomously improve and update its own code.
00:24:59.260We're not there yet technologically. Anthropic just had some recent data on this. But when you get something that is like RSI, the exponential goes up and anybody in the defense space will tell you if that theoretical construct were to be achieved.
00:25:13.180Think about this. You would have, you know, full spectrum battlefield dominance and things like encryption, cyber attacks, cybersecurity, hacking of missile systems, hacking of infrastructure.
00:25:25.000So the reason why people say we've got to beat China in this A.I. race is once whoever gets there first, they really do gain this level of battlefield supremacy that is unlike anything we've seen.
00:25:36.360So people say sometimes to me, they'll say, you know, aren't a lot of these just, you know, marketing pitches by these huge, you know, trillion dollar companies so that they can raise investor capital by making it sound like their tech is so important.
00:25:50.040Look, I think two things can be true at the same time, right?
00:26:58.820great job jack thank you what a job you do you know we have an incredible thing we're always
00:27:06.360talking about the fake news and the bad but we have guys and these are the guys should be getting
00:27:11.300all right folks america is entering its 250th year and the direction of this country is being
00:27:20.060decided right now in our culture in our economy and who we choose to support matters more than
00:27:25.720ever. Most wireless companies don't tell you who you are or what you believe. They just want your
00:27:30.460money. Patriot Mobile, of course, is different. For more than 12 years, they've stood with
00:27:34.960Americans who believe freedom is worth defending, funding the Christian conservative movement when
00:27:39.680others stayed silent. Here's the deal. You don't have to give up quality or service when you switch
00:27:44.680to Patriot Mobile. They deliver premium priority access on all three major U.S. networks, so you'll
00:27:50.500the same or better coverage than you have today think switching is a hassle it isn't keep your
00:27:56.100number keep your phone or you can upgrade the 100 us-based support team can activate you in minutes
00:28:03.380so if you're still paying off the device guess what patriot mobile they're going to come in
00:28:06.340they'll offer you a contract buyout 2026 the big two six is in a defining year we have to work
00:28:13.460together to save our country go to patriot mobile.com slash post or give them a call at 972
00:28:19.140Patriot. All Patriots, go to US, use promo code POSO for a free month of service at patriotmobile.com
00:28:27.360slash POSO or give them a call 972-PATRIOT. Make the switch today. Well, folks, we saw the news
00:28:34.880this morning going viral about Joe Kent. And what can we say? You have to thank Joe Kent for his
00:28:42.380service. There's no question. This man has sacrificed more for his country and has done
00:28:48.580more for his country than any of us will ever do in a lifetime. An 11-time combat veteran
00:28:55.040and also a gold star husband. And I remember serving in the Navy when Shannon died and just
00:29:03.280being in Navy intelligence. We heard about it. It was a huge blow. I hadn't met Joe at the time,
00:29:09.440But people know that I've connected with him and campaigned for him and helped helped him get into when he was running, helped him when he was running.
00:29:17.920And you have to thank Joe Kent for his service.
00:29:37.940Like I said last night, like I said every day, Donald Trump as the commander in chief is the one that we chose to make the decisions for the United States, for our country, for our freedom, for our security.
00:30:37.540No, it's good to have you on. And I guess this is when I've talked before about the generational divide, how I believe there is this sort of generational.
00:30:46.420And it's just something that is when it comes to foreign intervention, when it comes to war, when it comes to these matters.
00:30:54.380Is that something that we're seeing now when we look at the Iran operation, where there's there's people over a certain age that are fully behind it?
00:31:02.300There's people sort of who are in the middle and then there's young people that are just totally opposed to it.
00:31:08.060Do I have that right? Am I seeing it? What are you seeing out there?
00:31:11.760Yeah, well, let's just dig into the polling right now.
00:31:13.960So you have 72 percent of independents who are saying that they are against this war.
00:31:18.400For Gen Z, this is an NPR poll from just this month.
00:31:21.780Sixty two percent of Gen Z voters disprove of President Trump's handling of Iran.
00:31:27.940Now, this is, of course, significant because it's not just polling left wing libs who are overwhelmingly against this conflict, but included in that Gen Z coalition are a lot of conservatives who actually voted for President Trump.
00:31:40.460President Trump historically won Gen Z men in 2024.
00:31:43.980Whoever thought that could have happened, it did.
00:31:45.980And so I think what's happening, Jack, is and this is a narrative problem.
00:31:50.680A lot of Gen Zers are associating the war in Iran that we're having right now with Iraq and Afghanistan.
00:31:57.500And the statement that Joe Kent came out with today narratively does not help that at all. Right. He said this is Iraq 2.0 and we're doing this on behalf of Israel. That's not some podcaster saying that that's Joe Kent.
00:32:08.880So the problem now is a lot of young people are viewing this as Iraq 2.0. And what happened when we went into these forever wars in the Middle East? You had trillions of dollars being spent on these wars. How did we afford them? Well, we borrowed money. This, of course, increases deficits, increases our national debt, increases inflation. It devalues the American currency. And that takes away the American dream from young people.
00:32:34.320President Trump knows this. President Trump has been against forever wars for his entire political career. Right. And so I don't think that what's happening in Iran is necessarily what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan.
00:32:44.560The problem is that there's a narrative that it is and we're ahead of midterms. And if you're a black pillar and you're worried about, you know, the Trump admin isn't doing enough, we're not we're not being successful enough, which I disagree with.
00:32:56.980But if you really want to see nothing happen, let's see what happens in the midterms when the Democrats take back the House or potentially take back the Senate.
00:33:03.920And then we're going through two years of incessant impeachment proceedings.
00:33:09.200And I do think, by the way, that, you know, this and this is something that I've brought up so many times as well.
00:33:26.320I remember the months and months that went into that went into sort of the championing for the war.
00:33:33.500Colin Powell goes up to the U.N. is talking about the weapons of mass destruction.
00:33:37.820I remember the whole thing. This was laid out systemically by the administration, by the Bush administration over a long period of time.
00:33:45.180And at the same time, people have to remember, you know, when you look back on it, that in context, 9-11 wasn't that long before.
00:33:54.120And so people were very traumatized. Just the American people were very traumatized by that attack and were feeling vulnerable, feeling at risk, feeling like another terrorist attack could happen.
00:34:04.660And we're looking for the government to protect them. And what the Bush administration did was squander that trust, absolutely squander that trust and say, oh, we need to go and do this because this is the big problem.
00:34:17.760And not only and that was far more than just, you know, airstrikes and hitting military installations.
00:34:23.820That was a full on ground invasion where when, you know, my senior year, I remember people who saying, hey, I'm going to enlist in the army.
00:34:33.720And they did. And I knew people who enlisted and were in that pipeline and went straight to Iraq.
00:34:38.700And I knew people who came back. I know people who didn't come back. And that's just how it was during those years.
00:34:44.640So fundamentally, this is already a different thing. There's no question about that. And by the way, I've not said at all that people shouldn't be allowed to debate because this is the United States of America.
00:34:56.140And in the United States of America, if you're going to if you have freedom of speech, you should be able to exercise that freedom of speech.
00:35:03.220When you have a war, when you have invasions, when you have questions about invasions, that is the kind of thing that's always going to be controversial and should be debated the most.
00:35:13.920There's no question. And, you know, that's one thing.
00:35:17.180And I'll throw it to you, Evita, that we have actually seen some people calling for shutting down the debate.
00:35:22.440And I think that's a problem, isn't it?
00:35:24.300No, I mean, we certainly shouldn't be shutting down debate.
00:35:27.420I mean, I think from a young person's POV, you talk about the memory of 9-11, how that
00:35:33.300impacted Iraq and Afghanistan and forever wars in the Middle East, the perception of
00:37:47.820all right folks we're back jack pasobiec human events daily ladies and gentlemen if you're a
00:37:58.440homeowner in America, you need to listen to this. The FBI has been warning about a type of real
00:38:03.860estate fraud on the rise called title theft, and your equity is the target. Here's how it works.
00:38:09.740Criminals forge your signature on a single document, use a fake notary stamp, and they file
00:38:14.320it with the county. And just like that, on record, they own your home. Using your ownership, they can
00:38:20.220take out loans against your equity or even sell your property, and you won't know about it until
00:38:25.120foreclosure or collection notices show up in the mail. That's why I partnered with Home Title Lock

00:39:04.640back on here today because, Evita, you're just absolutely sending it. There's been so many
00:39:09.880people who, no, it's true, as the kids say, that they want to get into this bickering and this
00:39:17.740back and forth. And he said, she said. And, you know, there there's just certain things that we
00:39:25.000need to focus on right now. We're going into this election. By the way, the Charlie Kirk murder
00:39:31.560trial is going to be starting in just a couple of weeks here. And so when I talk or, you know,
00:39:38.240unless it gets pushed back, which is a possibility as well. But, you know, I tend to try to focus
00:39:42.740on the big things without getting into the personality struggles. And there have been times
00:39:50.040in the past couple of weeks where certain personalities have tried to make it personally
00:39:55.000about me, and I don't respond. I either don't respond or I will if it's a, well, there was a
00:40:01.660certain U.S. senator last week who decided he wanted to do that, and I did respond to him.
00:40:07.640but it's really something that I feel, to your point, it just detracts and distracts from the
00:40:13.740actual goal. There's no meaningful conversation being had. And Jack, you and I are both part of
00:40:19.320new media. I love new media. It's great. The corporate media, the propaganda press had been
00:40:24.780doing a terrible job for decades, lying to the American people. The flip side of that is that
00:40:30.100new media is full of a lot of personalities who are very self-absorbed, who are cult of
00:40:35.440personalities, if we're being honest, and everything is about them. And everything is
00:40:39.300about getting other people to be absorbed into their drama in order to promote themselves.
00:40:45.220That's really what it's all about. It's deeply selfish and it's unproductive. And especially
00:40:50.520when they're ostensibly our sides or our voices, it doesn't do anything to help the movement. In
00:40:55.820fact, it actually creates division. I mean, we're acting like losers right now. This is what's so
00:41:00.200obnoxious to me, Jack. 2024 was incredible. I mean, Trump won the popular vote. He won Gen Z men.
00:41:05.920He did better with Gen Z women than he did in 2020. I mean, actually, the numbers for Gen Z
00:41:10.720women were incredible, even if he didn't win them, just because Gen Z women never, young women never
00:41:15.280vote for Republicans. But he did really well with them. And all of a sudden, we are acting like
00:41:20.360losers right now. We are acting like losers with these stupid podcast wars and all of the back and
00:41:26.080forth. He's not MAGA. She's not MAGA. I'm so sick of it. It's completely unproductive.
00:41:31.700No, that's exactly right. And at the end of the day, I said this yesterday and it was kind of,
00:41:37.080I don't know, it was kind of making the rounds because they clipped it. And I said, if, if there
00:41:41.580is, you know, a sort of, cause you know, the president brought it up about, you know, MAGA
00:41:44.700means you support Donald Trump. And, and I think that's fair. He certainly earned that. There's no
00:41:49.400question, but there are, you know, and if you need a name for it, there is sort of this America first
00:41:54.940group, which is is people who support the various policies of 2016, 2020, 2024, but perhaps would be
00:42:05.960willing to do so without the president. So they're more, you know, more focus on immigration,
00:42:10.620more focus on trade, you know, no focus at all on foreign policy. And so that if I see a split,
00:42:17.900that's where I see the split, because and I was on Sky News the other day and they asked me about
00:42:21.720this. They said, is, is MAGA splitting from Trump? And I said, no, I don't see MAGA splitting from
00:42:25.740Trump at all. That you look at poll after poll and people who identify as MAGA do by and large
00:42:31.740stick with the president. It's like 80, I think it was 94%, something like that. 94% are still
00:42:37.780with the president. So, you know, that being said though, what you're pointing out is that there's
00:42:42.880a larger coalition that can get you beyond MAGA Republicans. It can get you into independence.
00:42:49.400It can get you into perhaps former Democrats. It can get you into all sorts of things that take
00:42:56.460you from, you know, 45 percent of the country into 55 percent, into 60 percent. And that's
00:43:04.640what the goal is about. Yeah, I mean, that's what you need to win. I mean, that's what Charlie
00:43:08.400Kirk's whole goal was. You know, Jack, I mean, something that I feel like has been really missing
00:43:11.780from this conversation about war with Iran, and this goes beyond President Trump. And I think that
00:43:16.220there's certainly an opportunity for us to midnight hammer what's happening in Iran right now and just
00:43:20.660say, all right, we're in the victory. We're out. And that's been like Trump's whole MO. He's done
00:43:25.920that for a long time. I don't think we have any reason to believe that this is going to be a 20
00:43:29.180year conflict based off of who President Trump is and his track record. But if this does become a
00:43:34.32020 year conflict, and again, that wouldn't even be President Trump's fault, it would certainly
00:43:38.080outlive him. The problem that I see, one of the biggest problems is mass immigration and how
00:43:43.580conflicts across the globe have destabilized Western countries via all these refugees,
00:43:49.500people asking for asylum. There hasn't been a lot of conversation about that, frankly, among
00:43:53.660serious people in our movement. And it's actually one of the biggest ones that I see. And again,
00:43:58.760this wouldn't be a President Trump problem. This would be the preceding presidents. This is why
00:44:03.620deportations are so essential. This is why passing the SAVE Act is so necessary right now. This is
00:44:09.000why Congress has to get it into gear right now and protect our country, insulate it from another
00:44:14.340Joe Biden who will gladly let in millions of people or a bad Republican. And by the way,
00:44:18.740there's been a lot of bad Republicans in the past. The track record for Democrat and Republican
00:44:23.080presidents has been mass immigration, amnesty, you name it. That's what they've stood for.
00:44:28.520And so I'm worried about what happens post-Trump. That conversation isn't even being had.
00:44:33.920Well, there's a lot of questions, and this is certainly why. And I threw that up,
00:44:37.220You know, I threw a tweet up yesterday about that, talking about, you know, who supported J.D. Vance back at not in terms of, you know, right now, but in terms of putting him on the ticket for 2024, because I remember Charlie Kirk was there.
00:44:51.560I remember that's where Charlie was 100 percent.
00:45:11.080And I think, quite frankly, Evita, that it's all of those questions that are causing a lot of the fights that you see right now, because there are people who are jockeying for position.
00:45:21.760And I'll simply put it this way, that the 2028 primary isn't starting sometime in the future.
