00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.

00:00:39.680 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:46.420 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.

00:00:49.280 Christ is king.

00:00:53.060 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.

00:00:57.420 Today is October 13th, 2025.

00:01:01.680 Anno, Dominic.

00:01:02.800 Guys, if we can get that live shot up of Air Force One or whatever the pool feed is giving us right now.

00:01:10.040 President Trump holding incredible, historic, just absolutely historic trip today to the Middle East.

00:01:19.980 Just departing, and we're told Air Force One is going to be departing in just a few moments here as special coverage continues on Real America's Voice.

00:01:30.260 We're picking that up, of course, from the Human Events Daily side.

00:01:33.800 We'll be covering in for the next hour, bringing guests in to talk about this historic deal and potentially a reset for relations in the Middle East.

00:01:45.320 There you see President Trump signing in at the Knesset, there with Bibi Netanyahu and the Speaker.

00:01:52.980 And what we've seen are scenes that in many cases, and look, I was on the early show today with Bannon.

00:02:00.780 We did a special overnight broadcast.

00:02:03.000 This is biblical.

00:02:03.600 Folks, what we're seeing is biblical, a potential restructuring of the Middle East, a potential restructuring of geopolitics, and a return of the United States to the world stage. 0.85

00:02:16.720 For so many years, the United States had receded, had been seen as weak, certainly in the face of the Biden administration.

00:02:23.140 Now with President Trump, this is peace through strength.

00:02:29.200 We are seeing peace through strength in action.

00:02:31.780 And notice, President Trump was able to achieve this not by conducting military raids against Hamas, not by conducting drone strikes in Gaza.

00:02:42.920 No.

00:02:43.760 He was able to get it done through diplomacy.

00:02:46.640 And the real, the absolute real credit here goes to that diplomatic team, Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, Steve Wyckoff, and then Jared Kushner coming in kind of as the closer for President Trump, along with his daughter-in-law, Ivanka Trump.

00:03:06.480 Them holding this incredible meeting there in Tel Aviv and then Jerusalem with the hostages as they were released, I believe 20 living hostages were released.

00:03:16.540 Then President Trump flying to Egypt, where he's currently on the ground now.

00:03:22.120 And we'll get you that live shot in just a second, where Air Force One is about to take off.

00:03:28.580 President Trump just wrapped up speaking there at this incredible meeting.

00:03:33.200 Twenty-seven nations gathered together to hear President Trump, and then the photos, the conversations, being there with every single one of the world leaders.

00:03:46.620 America's preeminence is now reestablished on the world stage.

00:03:52.660 What do I mean by that?

00:03:53.400 The United States, you know, Joe Biden would run around telling everyone, I'm the leader of the free world.

00:03:58.500 You know, I'm the leader of the free world.

00:04:00.060 And it's like that old line that if you are the king, you don't have to run around telling everyone you're the king.

00:04:08.280 President Trump is the leader of the free world, and he doesn't need to tell anyone.

00:04:11.980 You could see, because he doesn't run around telling them.

00:04:16.420 They come to him.

00:04:19.180 This is an unequivocal win for President Trump.

00:04:21.740 This is MAGA world peace in action.

00:04:27.160 It's MAGA world peace in action.

00:04:29.660 The end of the war in Gaza.

00:04:32.760 The end of the response to the horrific October 7th attacks.

00:04:38.340 One year and one week.

00:04:40.340 Exactly one year and one week from that terrible morning.

00:04:45.500 All right, we've got that shot up in the box.

00:04:48.060 These stairs are there.

00:04:50.620 Oh, guys, take that full screen if President Trump is there.

00:04:55.460 And we're told President Trump boarding Air Force One and wrapping up this historic visit.

00:05:07.880 Now, President Trump's plan, you look at the itinerary in terms of logistics, you look at the itinerary in terms of what's going on.

00:05:17.960 And there we go. There's that full screen shot. Look at this.

00:05:20.240 Absolutely incredible. You can see President Trump.

00:05:24.920 Eight hour flight to Tel Aviv.

00:05:28.180 Four hours on the ground.

00:05:30.380 Then flying Tel Aviv to Egypt.

00:05:34.060 Sheikh al-Sham holding a roundtable of meetings.

00:05:37.140 He brings another speech there to the Arab leaders, the Muslim world, and now returning.

00:05:42.780 And why is he coming? He's not spending the night.

00:05:46.240 Why is he coming back so quickly to the United States?

00:05:50.160 Why is he headed back here so fast?

00:05:52.100 I'll tell you why.

00:05:52.760 Because tomorrow at the White House, President Trump will be awarding Erica Trump the posthumous Medal of Freedom, the Presidential Medal of Freedom there at the White House.

00:06:06.360 And I'll be able to tell you that we are very honored that Human Events Daily, as well as the Charlie Kirk Show, will be broadcast from the White House grounds tomorrow.

00:06:17.260 So we're going to be there, of course, for the ceremony.

00:06:20.080 And we will be broadcasting this show directly from the White House tomorrow.

00:06:25.360 And hopefully I'll be able to get some of the, working out the logistics, but I want to be able to get some of the crew on and maybe some special guests who are there in attendance.

00:06:34.980 And then the medal ceremony will be taking place after the end of Human Events Daily tomorrow.

00:06:41.620 So look for that.

00:06:42.380 It's going to be a historic day.

00:06:43.540 And how amazing is it that the President of the United States showing the true significance of Charlie Kirk and the true significance of what happened by flying all the way back from a historic peace deal, meeting with Israel, meeting with the Arab world, but now flying all the way back, Air Force One and the entire entourage, just so that Charlie Kirk can get his Medal of Freedom on his birthday.

00:07:06.380 Be right back.

00:07:06.980 Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily.

00:07:13.540 We stand in our way and our golden age has just begun.

00:07:19.800 This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.

00:07:21.560 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.

00:07:26.220 Welcome to the second American Revolution. 0.56

00:07:33.100 All right, Jack Posobiec, we are back here.

00:07:36.000 Human Events Daily.

00:07:38.000 Incredible, historic day.

00:07:39.340 President Trump making his way back now to Washington, D.C. from the Middle East.

00:07:46.180 And ladies and gentlemen, look, I got some news I got to tell you.

00:07:49.440 So people say, Posobiec, how can you be out there?

00:07:52.960 You're broadcasting live at two in the morning for an hour and a half.

00:07:57.200 Then you're back on the morning show.

00:07:59.200 Now you're up in the afternoon.

00:08:00.780 How do you do it?

00:08:01.560 I say I couldn't do it without my Blackout Coffee.

00:08:05.180 Blackout Coffee is here with Human Events Daily, and I want it to be home with you as well.

00:08:10.360 For years, Blackout Coffee has been my coffee of choice, and I know so many of you have missed it, and just like I have.

00:08:17.480 And so now is your chance to restock.

00:08:19.700 Now is your chance to resupply.

00:08:21.580 This isn't just coffee.

00:08:22.360 It's America in a cup. 0.67

00:08:24.420 Blackout Coffee was founded on Christian values rooted in family and built on the belief that hardworking Americans deserve better than, you know, that random corporate swill out there.

00:08:34.260 Blackout Coffee is a family business that roasts every batch right here in the United States of America.

00:08:39.780 Two roasts you got to try.

00:08:40.940 Morning Reaper, a smooth medium roast that kicks off your day without any bitterness.

00:08:45.760 And for the dark roast lovers, I got to tell you, one of my personal favorites is Brutal Awakening.

00:08:53.000 Brutal Awakening is a bold, rich roast with deep flavor that will keep you sharp and alert.

00:08:57.220 It's perfect for serving friends and family around the holidays.

00:08:59.460 Because let's face it, the best gatherings start with the best coffee.

00:09:03.360 So here's the deal.

00:09:04.140 You go to blackoutcoffee.com slash POSO and use promo code POSO for 20% off your first order.

00:09:09.540 That's blackoutcoffee.com slash POSO.

00:09:11.620 So support a company that supports your values, American jobs, and fuels your freedom one strong cup at a time.

00:09:19.080 And I just got to say thank you to the folks over at Blackout Coffee.

00:09:22.760 Because if I had not received my resupply last week, I definitely would not have been able to perform this historic day the way that we have.

00:09:32.460 Now, I want to bring in, so President Trump taking off there, Air Force One.

00:09:37.280 Looks like, logistically speaking, he'll be landing here.

00:09:39.640 It's about an eight-hour flight.

00:09:41.160 Air Force One is able, of course, to fly higher, fly faster.

00:09:43.840 They're given full flight clearance across all airspace.

00:09:49.240 They had a fighter escort, by the way, on their way into Egypt.

00:09:52.660 So I imagine he'll have one again probably throughout various areas of the CENTCOM AOR as he makes his way across the Mediterranean.

00:09:59.900 And looking to be, looking to touch down in about eight hours.

00:10:02.720 So I put about 10 p.m. Eastern here on the East Coast.

00:10:07.360 And then tomorrow, participating in the Charlie Kirk Medal of Freedom Ceremony.

00:10:11.940 I want to bring in here longtime Trump advisor and political strategist Roger Stone.

00:10:17.120 And, Roger, we're looking at these historic, incredible scenes here.

00:10:23.980 What are we to make of this?

00:10:25.400 We were told that Trump was going to give us World War III, but instead he's given us MAGA world peace.

00:10:30.640 Jack, I think you hit this right on the head.

00:10:34.940 This is a return to the policy of peace through strength, as advocated by Dwight Eisenhower, supported by Ronald Reagan, and as President Trump pursued in his first term.

00:10:46.060 Where not only do we not start any new foreign wars, Trump being the only president in modern times who can claim that, but now solving some of the world's worst skirmishes, worst wars, and so on.

00:11:06.080 But this guy's record is extraordinary, not just this incredible peace deal, which kind of brings back the Abraham Accords, which they again told Trump he could not achieve in his first term.

00:11:18.180 But with the able assistance in that case, as in this, of Jared Kushner, achieve both historic agreements.

00:11:25.760 This is absolutely historic.

00:11:27.540 So there is no greater title that history can bestow than that of Peacemaker.

00:11:34.920 Donald Trump now adds this historic agreement to his decision, his ability to get a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, solving the issues between India and Pakistan, getting Thailand and Cambodia to stop fighting Armenia and Azerbaijan, Saudi, Syria, Lebanon, all coming in under the Abraham Accords for better relations.

00:12:00.540 Since Donald Trump is an incredible peacemaker, I am not happy that the Norwegian-based Nobel Peace Prize Committee elected to give their award to Maria Corina Machado, not so much as a criticism of her, but other than to say the right thing to do would be for her to ask, or maybe have Marco Rubio ask her, if President Trump can give her the award.

00:12:28.840 And then she should hand it back to her, and then she should hand it back to her, and she should hand it back to the president. 0.71

00:12:31.640 He deserves this award, even though I thought those elitist, globalist freaks at the Nobel Peace Prize Committee would likely not give it to him.

00:12:41.840 Well, Roger, I think there's no question there.

00:12:44.660 Looking at the way that the president has really restructured, I think, geopolitics and world relations, this reminds me of, and I know you'll appreciate it as well, this reminds me of something that Nixon said when he was in office, where he said,

00:13:03.840 the best way for the United States to support Israel is for the United States to have strong relations with Israel's neighbors.

00:13:12.860 Roger, what did he mean by that, and is President Trump following that dictum?

00:13:17.740 Very famous, very clip.

00:13:19.420 I mean, Nixon went out of his way to improve U.S. relationships with Egypt, with Saudi particularly, with a number of nations in the region.

00:13:31.740 Israel was not happy about it at the time, but Nixon felt strongly that the United States had to have better relationships with everybody concerned if there was any way to bring peace, and we could play the role of peacemaker.

00:13:46.140 This is what Jimmy Carter did at Camp David, one of the few laudable things that he did.

00:13:51.860 So I think that this is just an extraordinary, historic occasion that shows that Trump really is a world-class world diplomat.

00:14:03.660 He's negotiated all of these settlements with very able assistance from Steve Witkoff, and obviously, in this case, Jerry Kushner.

00:14:13.440 He's doing an amazing job.

00:14:15.260 Marco Rubio really is a surprise standout in this cabinet.

00:14:19.920 I always liked Rubio's hard line against communism in this hemisphere.

00:14:25.680 He's been very tough on Cuba, very tough on Maduro, who is a Marxist narco-thug, very tough, I think, increasingly on Honduras. 0.99

00:14:36.980 I mean, the Chinese communists are on the move in this hemisphere, too, as well as the more traditional communists.

00:14:43.360 Marco has been hard line, and he has very faithfully executed the president's worldview, the president's America first foreign policy, rather than that of the neocons.

00:14:57.260 Well, you know, Roger, it was amazing to me.

00:15:02.800 So a week ago, we held the Antifa Roundtable in the White House, and I'm there with Andy Ngo and Katie Davis Court and Savannah Hernandez, my colleagues from the Postmillennial and Human Events.

00:15:18.640 And there's this moment where I look to my left, and you mentioned Secretary of State, and so I can see the hallway.

00:15:26.840 I'm looking down past the East Room into the Executive Mansion hallway, the foyer there on the north side.

00:15:34.040 And I see the Secretary of State standing there, and I remembered that he was not going to be in the meeting.

00:15:43.780 And I remember that I also saw the vice president, who, of course, didn't end up coming on camera, the bearded vice president, also standing there in the hallway.

00:15:53.520 And he had his, you know, he had his arms crossed.

00:15:56.960 But I could look at the two of them, and they had a certain glint in their eye or perhaps a certain twinkle in their eye.

00:16:02.080 And it looked as though they had good news for the commander-in-chief.

00:16:05.820 And then, of course, as everyone could see, Secretary Rubio came in, whispered in President Trump's ear that we were close to a deal.

00:16:16.160 The president made—Susie Wiles, chief of staff, was incredibly gracious that she gave her seat to Secretary of State Rubio so that he could do that.

00:16:24.400 It was an incredible move on her part, complete understanding of protocol.

00:16:28.720 And you see this as a working White House.

00:16:30.340 And what can I say, Roger?

00:16:32.480 It was incredible to be a fly on the wall to that moment in history.

00:16:36.300 Yeah, that little soundbite goes down along with that moment that Andy Card, who was then a White House aide, later, I think, Secretary of Transportation, whispered in George W.'s ear that the 9-11 towers—that the towers had been hit on 9-11.

00:16:52.640 This is as historic a moment.

00:16:55.740 This is an extraordinary breakthrough.

00:16:58.040 We have to hope that, obviously, both sides keep their obligations.

00:17:02.100 The freedom of these hostages today is a testimony to the strength and the persistence and the negotiating skill of Donald Trump to bring disparate parties together in the name of peace.

00:17:14.000 It is—it is—it is—it is amazing.

00:17:17.780 They gave Barack Obama the Nobel Peace Prize.

00:17:21.380 But the only real accomplishment he had, Jack, was killing more human beings with drones than any president in American history.

00:17:27.380 I really—I really think the president deserves this award.

00:17:32.500 And I would hope that Maria Corina Machado would consider accepting it and giving it to the president, bestowing it to the president.

00:17:39.580 Yeah, Roger, that's an incredible idea.

00:17:43.020 So she'll get it there, and then I suppose she'd have to bring it to—he could invite her to the White House, perhaps, and have the ceremony there and invite the Nobel Committee as well, why don't he?

00:17:54.760 And it's—it would be—it would certainly be a coup.

00:17:57.880 But this is a diplomatic coup because what we're seeing now is the return of the United States to the world stage.

00:18:04.540 And the United States, of course, had retracted and retreated from the world stage and sort of faded into, I believe, faded into the wallpaper with Joe Biden and his allowance of globalist interests and European interests to really take the lead, specifically as pertains to Ukraine, Russia.

00:18:26.760 But then also as pertains to the Middle East, and we saw that in no less an example as the disastrous withdrawal, the retreat from Afghanistan and the killings at Abbey Gate.

00:18:39.040 Incredible scenes, folks.

00:18:40.620 We're going to be getting more.

00:18:41.720 We're going to get more live coverage.

00:18:43.060 We've got Roger Stone here providing insight into us as to how all of this went together.

00:18:49.160 This is your front row seat to MAGA World Peace.

00:18:52.760 This is Human Events Daily, continues our special coverage live on Real America's Voice.

00:18:57.100 We'll be right back.

00:18:57.720 Jack Posobiec, Roger Stone.

00:19:10.760 You talk about influencers.

00:19:12.600 These are influencers.

00:19:14.520 And they're friends of mine.

00:19:16.840 Jack Posobiec.

00:19:18.400 Where's Jack?

00:19:19.300 Jack.

00:19:20.300 He's done a great job.

00:19:21.780 And Jack Posobiec, we're back live here, Human Events Daily.

00:19:30.560 We're, of course, talking about these incredible scenes coming out of the Middle East.

00:19:36.820 We're looking at President Trump on his way back now from the Middle East aboard Air Force One.

00:20:47.840 I want to bring back on Roger Stone now.

00:20:51.440 Roger, President Trump made some comments just a few moments ago in Egypt.

00:20:56.480 He said they said World War III was going to kick off in the Middle East, but that's not going to happen on my watch.

00:21:05.400 So President Trump, he has this incredible ability to simply directly state the obvious and even though you're not supposed to and drive right towards it.

00:21:14.780 Roger, do you believe that President Trump's moves here will see a return to stability for the region?

00:21:22.600 Look, I think there's going to be bumps along the way because that's how world affairs are.

00:21:28.800 But at the end of the day, I think he has achieved what could become a lasting peace.

00:21:35.140 This is an amazing act of strength.

00:21:38.220 And now, obviously, the president probably will turn his attention to getting a final resolution on the struggle between Ukraine and Russia, which is, you know, that's the kind of the last, the biggest hurdle yet to be resolved.

00:21:55.000 So I think I think I think the president is on a roll here that is really quite extraordinary.

00:22:01.900 He is. He is. He's demonstrated that he completely understands what President Theodore Roosevelt said when he said, speak softly and carry a big stick.

00:22:12.460 He's projecting American strength as opposed to deploying American troops abroad.

00:22:17.580 Well, Roger, that's specifically it.

00:22:21.620 So President Trump has shown that you can use economic power, diplomatic power and the cultural power, his own cultural power, as well as his role as the president of the United States,

00:22:33.200 the man in the bully pulpit to be able to bring these disparate groups together and use this true diplomacy without the need for going to conquest the way the neocons would have or by becoming subservient to these transnational organizations

00:22:49.100 and international superstructures like the U.N. or the World Economic Forum, the way that the neoliberals, the Biden Obama era would have us do instead.

00:22:58.800 But President Trump and I think you can see that specifically in those meetings there in Israel, but particularly in Egypt, where he's meeting with the world leaders.

00:23:07.880 And it seems that each of them has some personal statement that they want to make with him as they're meeting with him.

00:23:13.640 They're received very warmly. And I think you can really tell that this is a man who clearly has relationships with all of them.

00:23:19.840 He's built with all of them. And that's because, Roger, he spends so much time specifically when he's on Air Force One,

00:23:26.460 making phone calls to these world leaders and building those relationships.

00:23:31.300 Roger, I think a lot of people, they're asking us, does the president ever sleep?

00:23:35.400 No, his energy level is really something to behold.

00:23:38.600 Now, he was always nocturnal. I've known him 50 years. He never slept for long periods of time.

00:23:45.820 But now he's keeping up this superhuman physical schedule, rushing back from this very important announcement and the release of the hostages and his visit to the Knesset for Charlie Kirk's memorial and to give him the Medal of Freedom, which I very strongly support.

00:24:07.180 I'm still in shock about the vicious political murder of our ally and brother, Charlie Kirk.

00:24:14.620 But he shows that he keeps his word. His energy level is extraordinary.

00:24:18.960 And by the way, not only do I think he not sleep, he doesn't like when others do, because he will sometimes call you at two o'clock in the morning and say, you weren't sleeping, were you?

00:24:26.920 No, never, Mr. President. Absolutely not. And and I actually remember just an anecdote that I shared before.

00:24:39.040 When we were on that trip to Anchorage for the meeting with Putin, we fly all the way back from Anchorage.

00:24:45.800 We're on the tarmac at Andrews Air Force Base and we're waiting to be to be let off.

00:24:51.160 And typically those movements are pretty quick. But then we see the Secret Service sit down, say we've been traveling all day.

00:24:57.360 What's the Secret Service sitting down for? Those guys obviously know something is up.

00:25:01.100 Then Caroline Leavitt comes back to where we're sitting and says, sorry, folks, we're going to be a few more minutes.

00:25:06.780 The president is on the phone. It's two in the morning and he's still on the phone with world leaders and he doesn't want to have to hang up and reconnect.

00:25:14.620 So we're going to wait here until the phone call is done. Roger, we sat there for another 45 minutes because he just couldn't stop.

00:25:21.160 Stop working. Well, look, he was the most successful developer in Manhattan real estate for a reason.

00:25:27.840 He's a dealmaker and he he can be very charming when he needs to be.

00:25:32.160 He can be very tough when he needs to be. And he has, as you know, Jack, he has that great quality,

00:25:38.960 which is a great asset in the conduct of foreign affairs, unpredictability.

00:25:43.780 So and when he threatens to use American power at extreme levels, shall we say, his adversaries don't know whether he would do it or not.

00:25:55.020 But as he's told me, if there's a 10 percent chance that I would that I would attack Peking, for example, or Moscow, if they cost me, then that's enough to keep them wondering and keep us at peace.

00:26:08.060 So he understands the whole unpredictability. Nixon used this very successfully in the Vietnam conflict,

00:26:14.500 sending Henry Kissinger to the peace tables in Paris to say Nixon's a right wing Republican lunatic with his finger on the button. 0.81

00:26:22.580 If you guys don't give us a deal, he could just nuke the whole lot of you.

00:26:26.020 It was it was what Nixon called his exactly right. Roger.

00:26:31.180 Roger, we're coming up on a break. I understand you have to run. Thank you for your time today.

00:26:34.940 I know we grabbed you on short notice. Where can people go to follow you and get access to everything you're putting out?

00:26:39.400 They can go to StoneZone.com, StoneZone.com, my hot sub stack at StoneColdTruth.com.

00:26:48.000 And then on the radio every day, 8 p.m. Eastern, WABCRadio.com's The Stone Zone.

00:26:54.680 That's at WABCRadio.com, 8 p.m. Eastern, five nights a week. Thanks, Jack.

00:27:00.980 Thank you, Roger. Historic day. Right back. Human Events Daily, Real America Sports.

00:27:09.400 Where is Jack? Where is Jack? Where is Jack? Where is he? Jack, I want to see you.

00:27:20.060 Great job, Jack. Thank you. What a job you do. You know, we have an incredible thing.

00:27:25.080 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the guys who'll be getting police.

00:27:30.720 All right, Jack Posobiec, we're back live here. Human Events Daily, we're looking at live shots out of the Middle East right now.

00:27:41.180 We're also going through this incredible, incredible situation.

00:27:46.440 President Trump securing a historic peace deal, an end to the war in Gaza, the return of the hostages, and normalization, hopefully, for the region.

00:27:56.520 I want to bring on now Human Events Opinion Editor, Kenny Cody, because, Kenny, you've been tracking some of the response to these events from President Trump's critics and detractors and others.

00:28:11.080 What are they saying about this, Kenny?

00:28:13.500 Certainly, this is something that's just an objective and absolute good that everyone has to at least give the president credit for, right?

00:28:22.440 Well, the fact that they've been campaigning on peace in the Middle East, how we need to, you know, free Palestine, we need to do all this stuff.

00:28:30.340 And during this foreign policy, they can't even give Trump the proper credit he deserves.

00:28:34.620 We've got people like Elizabeth Warren, Abigail Spanberger, who's running for governor in Virginia.

00:28:39.160 We've got Nancy Pelosi, Ron Wyden.

00:28:41.100 They're all saying how great this peace deal is, how great it is for our world.

00:28:45.140 We've got, you know, Israel saying, blessed be the peacemaker that is Donald Trump.

00:28:49.500 But these congressional Democrats in our own country who have been using this war to placate and try to morally grandstand on the American people and calling us murderers, calling us advocates for genocide, have been using this war to politically prosper.

00:29:03.300 Now this war is over.

00:29:04.720 They can't even give proper credit to Donald Trump.

00:29:06.400 They'll acknowledge that there is peace, they'll acknowledge how great this peace deal is, how historical that this moment is in our world.

00:29:15.300 But they refuse to say President Trump's name.

00:29:17.880 They refuse to give credit to the Trump administration.

00:29:20.400 And I've got just a three-word answer or a three-word request.

00:29:24.980 Say his name.

00:29:26.640 Say President Trump's name.

00:29:28.200 I want these congressional Democrats who have been using this war to fundraise.

00:29:32.200 They've been using this war for their political campaigns.

00:29:34.900 Get on social media.

00:29:36.240 Get on television and say, thank you, President Trump.

00:29:39.360 Just say his name.

00:29:40.940 Say any Trump administration official's name or the president himself's name when you're talking about this peace deal because he brokered it.

00:29:47.640 He's the one who stayed up all those countless hours, all those countless minutes, all of those sleepless nights advocating for this peace deal to be had.

00:29:57.040 All you have to do is say his name.

00:29:58.840 And I challenge Democrats.

00:30:00.120 I challenge the left.

00:30:01.340 Get on social media.

00:30:03.420 Get on television.

00:30:04.820 And get in your emails and say, thank you, President Trump.

00:30:07.920 Just say his name.

00:30:08.920 That's all we're asking.

00:30:10.900 Well, it's really amazing, right?

00:30:12.800 And this is something where, of course, the polarization that we've been talking about for the last couple of weeks really comes to play here because you've got something where President Trump is able to come in.

00:30:25.040 And this was something, Kenny, that he directly campaigned on.

00:30:28.000 And he said, I will end these wars without putting American troops in harm's way.

00:30:33.580 And he's done it.

00:30:34.360 He's done exactly that, which he campaigned for.

00:30:37.260 He said, I'm not going to need to put American troops in harm's way.

00:30:40.200 I'm not going to need to deploy soldiers and airmen and all of this.

00:30:45.360 He said, I'm going to end the situation in Gaza, which was one of the biggest ones. 0.91

00:30:51.080 Now, obviously, also Ukraine, Russia is out there.

00:30:53.540 But the fact that they won't even say his name, they'll say it's a great thing that it happened.

00:30:57.660 It's an incredible thing that it happened.

00:30:58.940 But they won't name the man who did it.

00:31:02.360 I think it's just something that's going to fall in deaf ears, honestly.

00:31:04.880 I think this is so big and so historic and President Trump being front and center in all of it.

00:31:10.100 You've got people cheering his name in Tel Aviv.

00:31:12.940 I don't think they're going to be able to win this one, man.

00:31:15.960 No, I don't either.

00:31:17.340 I mean, when you have Western leaders who are giving him credit, the people in Israel, all those in the Middle East that are saying thank you, Donald Trump, for being the peacemaker in this situation, if the entire Western world and even some of the Eastern world are going to give him credit, I think the Palestinian prime minister actually got in a press conference a few minutes ago or about an hour ago and nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize.

00:31:37.140 If you're having these people who are giving credit to President Trump and asking him literally to get the award on Earth that is given to the most peaceful person, even though the committee is corrupt and will never give it to him in his lifetime, if you're having these people get on there and say he deserves credit, you're having newspapers who have his face on the front calling him bless the peacemaker like the Jerusalem Post did today, they're going to be forgotten.

00:31:59.380 These Democrats are going to be forgotten as just petty little babies that will not give credit where credit is due to the peacemaker that is Donald Trump.

00:32:08.180 And this is exactly what he deserves.

00:32:10.120 He deserves the acclaim.

00:32:11.460 He deserves, and also at the same time, Democrats deserve to be kind of exposed in this regard.

00:32:18.340 I'm actually glad this has happened.

00:32:19.520 I don't really want the acknowledgement from the Democrats because all this does is let them be known as the divisive people that they are embracing violence, they're embracing war, they're embracing this division, and they're slowly becoming, they're very quickly becoming the party of violence, becoming the party of war.

00:32:38.860 And now they're going to be the party of pettiness since they can't even give credit to the man that has made this happen, the administration that has made this happen.

00:32:46.380 Biden couldn't do it.

00:32:47.560 Obama couldn't do it.

00:32:48.980 No president of the last few decades could have peace in the Middle East like Trump has got to the start of this phase one, to the rest of these phases to fall into place, and for every country in the Western world to give Donald Trump credit for the peace that he has brought to the Middle East.

00:33:03.580 The fact that the Democrats in his own country cannot give him the credit and his enemies overseas are giving him credit is mind-blowing, but it should be noticeable to us, be noticeable to the American people, and be noticeable to voters when they go to the ballot box next November.

00:33:18.480 That's such a good point, Kenny Cody.

00:33:19.980 The idea that you have foreign leaders in parts of the world that are no friend of the United States are giving President Trump the credit for this, but his own countrymen, his own fellow countrymen in the political opposition,

00:33:32.900 simply won't admit it.

00:33:35.340 It's really fantastic.

00:33:37.160 Kenny, while I have you, I did want to also ask about something I said earlier today that I think is important, and I think you'll agree with me, but I want to get your thoughts on it.

00:33:48.280 That one thing that I'd like to hear more of, and of course this is the phase one part of the deal, so there's different phases that come in.

00:33:54.580 I want to see protections, and this is on a personal level, in any deal that comes out, I want to see protections for the Christian population in these areas.

00:34:02.320 That's something that's very important to me, and I think it's very important to a lot of Americans.

00:34:06.360 And look, I'm not saying it has to be U.S. troops on the ground, but we know that there were a lot of Christians that were affected by this war.

00:34:12.480 We know that there were churches that were hit.

00:34:14.820 We know there was damage that was done to a lot of these areas.

00:34:17.820 There were Christians who died in some of these bombings.

00:34:19.780 It just has to be said.

00:34:21.400 And, Kenny, do you think that we're going to get that level of protection for Christians in any part of this?

00:34:27.020 I think at some point we will.

00:34:29.700 You know, like you said, we're just in phase one.

00:34:31.260 I think Trump, more than any president of our lifetimes, is protecting the Christian religion.

00:34:35.980 He's protecting Christians around the world.

00:34:37.860 And we're seeing it happen in so many countries.

00:34:40.000 I mean, if you look at Nigeria, there's literally a genocide in Nigeria going on of the Christian population.

00:34:45.140 You're having it in so many countries that Christians are being eliminated.

00:34:48.000 And Christians have been killed in the crossfire and directly within these bombings between these two entities.

00:34:54.560 And if we're able to see Christians prioritized in so many of these countries, because they're either targeted or they're forgotten about in a lot of these foreign conflicts, especially in the Middle East and overseas.

00:35:05.400 So I do want to see some guarantees.

00:35:06.900 And I think if any president can do it, if any administration can come and realize that there is a genocide of Christians, there is an attack on the Christian religion, not just in the United States, not just in the Middle East, but all over the world.

00:35:18.300 And like I said, in countries like Nigeria, there should be inherent policies, inherent provisions, and inherent protections for Christians in any peace deal that the United States has with any foreign country.

00:35:31.280 If we're going to come in and broker these peace deals, we're going to find peace in the Middle East, we're going to find peace in the Ukrainian and Russian war.

00:35:37.360 If we're going to broker this, if we're going to be the peacemakers within these foreign conflicts and be the mediators, there should be protections for Christians because oftentimes they are in the crossfire and they're directly attacked.

00:35:51.120 Whether that be, you know, like you said, some entities stepping in, some funding, whatever that might be.

00:35:57.780 Like you said, we don't necessarily want U.S. troops on the ground, but there should be some provision, some agreement that if we come to this peace deal, we agree to mediate, we agree to be the mediator between two or more entities, there should be inherent protections for Christians within these peace deals.

00:36:14.120 And I 100% agree with you, Jack.

00:36:17.080 Incredible.

00:36:18.320 And, Kenny, when we look at it, too, look, people have to understand that, you know, we look at this with clear eyes.

00:36:24.160 We understand this is the Middle East.

00:36:25.340 We understand that these conflicts go back thousands of years, as the president has stated.

00:36:31.300 And in many ways, you know, this perhaps will be a lull.

00:36:35.900 But hopefully it is a way that a structure can be put in place whereby in the president, you see this as President Trump's ability as a businessman to understand that when there are economic interests,

00:36:48.840 when there are business interests that are able to be brought to the fore, that this is something that it truly can be win-win for everyone out there.

00:36:59.140 I don't know.

00:36:59.780 Maybe we need a new book when President Trump is out of office.

00:37:03.680 Call it The Art of the Peace Deal.

00:37:06.800 The Art of the Peace Deal. 0.68

00:37:08.320 Yeah, absolutely.

00:37:10.180 And I think that's what makes Trump so great at this is that he considers all these aspects.

00:37:15.140 He doesn't necessarily concentrate on solely the war aspect, the economic aspect, the foreign relations, the trade aspects.

00:37:21.100 He considers every single impact that could be had either by this war continuing and then you look at the harms or you look at a peace deal and look at the benefits and a cost-benefit analysis.

00:37:32.660 He takes that approach to every single thing that he does, and that's what makes him so good at these foreign relations.

00:37:39.280 And if there is one thing that President Trump is good at that he has carried over from his first administration is being good at these foreign relations, being good at being a mediator and being good at being the peacemaker as he has been the last few months and this week especially.

00:37:53.400 Kenny Cody, go give him a follow over at humanevents.com.

00:37:56.860 We'll be right back, final segment.

00:37:58.400 Hear Real America's Voice.

00:37:59.380 Jack is a great guy.

00:38:09.780 He's written that fantastic book.

00:38:11.460 Everybody's talking about it.

00:38:12.660 Go get it.

00:38:13.820 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.

00:38:17.740 And we're going to turn it around and make our country great again.

00:38:20.920 Amen.

00:38:21.280 All right, Jack, we're back live on this historic day here in the United States, but we're also covering what's happening across the world, the Middle East, that region and beyond.

00:38:37.080 We're joined by former DOD official Dan Caldwell to go through some of these not only historic scenes, but also an understanding of where perhaps we may be moving forward.

00:38:49.540 Dan, thanks so much for joining us today.

00:38:51.660 Jack, thanks for having me on.

00:38:52.780 And by the way, happy birthday, United States Navy.

00:38:56.800 That's right.

00:38:57.520 That's right.

00:38:58.020 Hooyah, Navy, from a Marine Corps buddy there.

00:39:02.100 Happy 250 to the Marines, by the way.

00:39:03.700 I hear Camp Pendleton is going to be an incredible, absolutely incredible performance there.

00:39:08.300 And I believe the vice president is going to be leading it.

00:39:11.120 So the highest ranking E4 that we've ever seen.

00:39:14.960 The, you know, the scenes that we're seeing out of the Middle East today, you know, there were there was talk over the summer of a wider regional conflict.

00:39:26.740 There was talk of Israel, Iran, Lebanon, Syria, you know, completely embroiling the region into a much wider war.

00:39:36.380 And here we are just a few months later, three, four months later, with news of a massive peace deal.

00:39:42.240 It seems that those who wanted the wider war have really been kind of pushed into a corner.

00:39:47.340 What do you think is going on there, Dan?

00:39:49.560 Yeah, absolutely.

00:39:50.600 I mean, I think that there was a collective recognition in the United States, in the region, particularly among the more moderate Gulf Arab states, and, you know, elements of the Israeli government that recognized that a broader regional war would be disastrous.

00:40:08.260 And what we were talking about is really a war that probably would have led to multiple failed states, whether it was Syria, once again, lapsing back into civil war, whether it was potentially Lebanon, and things are still kind of tenuous there going back into civil war because of efforts to disarm Hezbollah or potentially the Israelis trying to stay in the country. 0.51

00:40:31.720 And then attacks on countries like Qatar, is that that really was an enormous risk to not just our partners in the region, whether they're the Gulf Arab countries or Israel, but also the United States, because that would suck us back in.

00:40:48.080 And so that's why I think that this deal was so important.

00:40:53.120 There's so many reasons why this is important, but it did take us back from the precipice of something that would have been really bad, not just for the region, but for the United States.

00:41:02.460 And I think, you know, look, I'm somebody just like you who's advocated that we need to retrench more from the Middle East. 0.86

00:41:08.100 It doesn't mean we completely pull back, but that we shouldn't be as involved there.

00:41:12.600 But I think that if that happened with 40,000 American troops in the region, it would have been inevitable that we would have gotten sucked back into another major war.

00:41:21.400 So, again, that that is something we shouldn't ignore here is that this pulls us back from the brink of yet another generation of our friends and their families suffering in that region.

00:41:35.180 Well, that's exactly right. And there were people who and I remember this, that you go back to the summer time frame and there were people who were saying the President Trump needs to go all the way in.

00:41:45.640 And this is after that Operation Midnight Hammer. People were saying he needs to go all the way in, go deeper, full on regime change in Tehran, which, of course, would have spiraled all the way out of control.

00:41:57.820 It would have required not only the use of those CENTCOM forces you mentioned, but probably the call up of many, many more the same way that we saw in Iraq.

00:42:07.620 And, of course, Iran is a country that's a several magnitudes larger than Iraq.

00:42:13.240 And so you had National Guard troops that are being called up in Iraq for, what, 22 month deployments.

00:42:18.800 All of a sudden, these guys who thought that they were just weekend warriors, suddenly you got a tank unit that's out there, you know, barreling towards Ramadi and and people really kind of asking the question, you know, 20 years later, was it worth it?

00:42:34.320 Was it worth all the blood and treasure? Now you're looking at Iran, which is a much larger piece. 0.99

00:42:38.820 Now, that being said, though, Dan, Iran, of course, notably quiet, I would say, over the past 48 hours in terms of all this.

00:42:47.300 How do you think the view in Tehran is looking at all of these scenes play out?

00:42:53.000 Well, so it's important that that I know, you know, this, that, you know, not all these countries are unitary entities, is that they have factions.

00:43:02.640 And within Iran, you know, there's there's hardline factions.

00:43:06.120 There's more reform, moderate faction. There's not, you know, like a faction of Jethronian Democrats.

00:43:11.980 But but but they're not united in their what they believe should be the foreign policy of Iran.

00:43:19.260 But it is you're right to note they're very muted.

00:43:22.020 And in fact, I do think there were some members of the Iranian government that made positive statements is that in their mind, they they want to have better relations with certain states in the region, particularly the Gulf Arab.

00:43:36.120 And they don't want to be seen doing things that would cause problems for those countries and therefore, once again, put distance between them.

00:43:46.980 Is that that's something that really started to happen during the Biden administration is that Iran was repaired its relationships with Saudi Arabia and the Emirates.

00:43:56.340 And they saw that Saudi Arabia and other countries in the region were supportive in wanting this to happen.

00:44:02.300 And they didn't want to see be seen undermining it is that in a lot of ways, it's of their interest as well, too, for this to happen.

00:44:09.980 And I would note, and I think it was a mistake for the Iranians not to go. 1.00

00:44:12.900 The Iranians were invited to Sharma al-Siaq is that there are a lot of people in the region that do want to bring them to the table.

00:44:19.980 And President Trump has talked about this and and try and work out a deal where not everybody is going to be best friends.

00:44:26.540 But Iran is less of an online influence in the region.

00:44:29.800 And it's not causing some of the problems that we've seen them seen them do over the past couple of decades.

00:44:34.420 That doesn't mean that that we delude ourselves into thinking they're going to be our friends or that they're going to be a democracy.

00:44:41.380 You know, President Trump certainly doesn't believe that he used military force against them.

00:44:45.000 He killed Soleimani in the first in the first term.

00:44:47.840 But it recognizes that, to your point, it is not our interest to have a regime change war, which, as you were getting at, it really would turn into a civil war,

00:44:56.840 is that it would turn into a massive failed state that would create problems all over the region, not just in the Persian Gulf, but in South Asia and up into the Caucasus regions most likely as well, too.

00:45:09.780 It borders Turkey. It would be a disaster for us. 0.99

00:45:13.060 So the alternative is is dealing with Iran and some of these improving relations that they have with other countries and regions isn't necessarily a bad thing. 0.80

00:45:22.220 And again, that's why President Trump several times over the last 24 hours has talked about trying to do a deal with Iran now that we've struck their military sites. 0.86

00:45:33.080 Well, that's exactly right. And of course, that will be, I think, and as we've said, this is phase one of the deal.

00:45:40.660 And we know that President Trump is looking towards his relations towards Iran quite strongly.

00:45:48.200 And I'm going to say it, I'll put my chips in.

00:45:51.460 I think we see a sit down between President Trump and the leaders of Iran before he leaves office.

00:45:58.600 I think that's something that's going to happen.

00:46:00.100 I don't know if he's going to go all the way to Tehran or they'll find some middle place, middle ground, maybe Qatar itself, by the way, or Egypt like this.

00:46:09.340 But I think I would say that the path is now open for a meeting between the United States and Iran, our political leadership, President Trump and the leaders of Iran, maybe not the Ayatollah, but certainly the political leader.

00:46:24.360 And a potential real opening of those relations there that we just haven't seen since we haven't seen since the days of the Islamic Revolution.

00:46:32.680 Last word to you, Dan Galwa.

00:46:33.580 Yeah, I'd just say a famous neoconservative during the Iraq war said amateurs go to Baghdad, real men go to Tehran.

00:46:42.980 Of course, they were talking about war, but as a peacemaker, real men go to Tehran.

00:46:47.520 And I think President Trump is the person to do it.

00:46:50.740 I totally forgot about that quote, but you're right.

00:46:53.160 That's exactly right.

00:46:54.120 That's what I'm saying.

00:46:55.080 Real men go to Tehran. 0.99

00:46:56.920 Dan Caldwell, where can people go to follow you and get everything you're putting out?

00:46:59.680 On X, at Dan D. Caldwell, that's the best place to follow me.

00:47:05.080 Get my musings on various things from Metallica to world events.

00:47:10.880 All right.

00:47:11.660 Metallica GNR joint tour potentially rumored for next year.

00:47:16.440 We'll see.

00:47:16.880 Axel Rose sounds like he's got the pipes back, man.

00:47:19.820 I saw some videos recently that sounded pretty good.

00:47:22.140 So we'll see.

00:47:22.820 We will see.

00:47:24.520 Metallica opening for Guns N' Roses.

00:47:26.140 First time in, I think, 40 years.

00:47:28.580 Dan Caldwell, thank you so much, man.

00:47:30.200 Look, folks, today is a historic day.

00:47:32.620 Many of us spent hours, years working towards this.

00:47:38.120 All I got to say is, I said earlier, just in the back of my mind, and keep thinking about it.

00:47:43.760 Charlie would have loved to see this.

00:47:45.800 And I think somewhere, somehow, he's looking down and smiling right now.

00:47:52.620 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay a short.

00:47:59.680 Ladies and gentlemen, we love to see some time.

00:48:01.900 We'll see.

00:48:04.200 Let's see.

00:48:04.560 We'll see you tomorrow.

00:48:04.900 Knocked off.

00:48:05.120 We'll see you tomorrow.

00:48:05.940 We'll see you tomorrow.

00:48:06.400 We'll see you tomorrow.

00:48:07.380 Bye-bye.

00:48:08.120 Here we go.

00:48:08.660 Bye-bye.

00:48:10.020 Bye-bye.

00:48:22.580 Bye-bye.

00:48:23.300 Bye-bye.
