00:01:56.180The practice, known as metering, was used during both the Obama and first Trump administrations.
00:02:02.740Supporters say it helped manage large numbers of asylum seekers,
00:02:06.080while critics argue it left thousands of migrants waiting in unsafe conditions.
00:02:10.960The policy is not currently in effect, but the 6-3 ruling allows the administration to consider bringing it back.
00:02:17.240The Supreme Court also allowing the administration to end a temporary legal protections for migrants from Haiti and Syria.
00:02:25.440This opens the door to possible deportations for hundreds of thousands of people.
00:02:30.800In two federal courts yesterday, a group of protesters received unusually long sentences after the Justice Department accused them of being members of the far left movement Antifa.
00:02:41.860The sentences range from 30 to 100 years in prison.
00:02:45.360Breaking news. A judge has just declared a mistrial in the Palisades federal arson case.
00:02:52.000This is big news. Judge Graff just found one of the Utah County prosecutors, Chris Ballard,
00:02:57.500in contempt for violating the court's pretrial publicity order. Now, Tyler Robinson's defense
00:03:03.080was asking for the death penalty to be removed from the case as punishment. But Judge Graff
00:03:09.520declined, saying it's grossly disproportionate to the misconduct.
00:03:15.360Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome on board. Today's edition of Human Events Daily. Today is June 26, 2026. Anno Domini.
00:03:23.320Well, folks, it seems that arson is now legal in Los Angeles.0.87
00:03:28.420You can burn down the entire Palisades and you will not be found guilty by a jury of your communist peers.0.58
00:03:38.220What's going on here? Well, you know that we have been covering this story.0.87
00:03:41.860One of the only outlets in all of media actually covering this story on a day to day basis, certainly in conservative media, because for some reason, conservatives just don't want to talk about left wing violence as much as they should and actually carrying out these trials and covering the trials all the way to the bitter end.
00:03:59.640Well, in this case, the end is quite bitter because what do we see?
00:04:03.340We see a trial that has now become a mistrial and obviously guilty, obviously guilty individual.
00:04:12.080Jonathan Rindernecht, an Uber driver who was found to have lit the Palisades fire.
00:04:19.360He lit one fire, which then was not put out properly, which then ignited a secondary larger fire that burned down the entire Pacific Palisades.
00:04:27.240They had the evidence. We've gone through the evidence with you here on the program over and over and over because our crack team at Human Events Daily has been digging through all of this for you.
00:04:38.480What have we found? Well, we found that his cell phone was there.
00:04:42.300He was the only person on the specific trail where the fire started at that specific time.
00:04:48.060They found evidence of Firestarter. They even found chat GPT chat logs where he was going through and looking up images, creating images of the Pacific Calisades burning down.
00:05:03.040He's also a known firebug who had other incidents of burning down fires in the past.
00:05:07.860and of course perhaps most uh disturbingly he would spend his uber drives and as if you go and
00:05:18.380look up his rating on on uber that his uber rider said that he would be ranting and raving about
00:05:24.080luigi magione and saying that somebody needs to do something to the rich somebody needs to do
00:05:30.940something because he was obsessed with luigi magione and would talk about magione to anyone
00:05:35.740who would listen while riding in the back of his Uber. It didn't matter who they were,
00:05:40.560but he would rant and rave about Maggioni and he would become fixated on doing something like
00:05:47.920Maggioni did. And so he did. He burned down the Palisades. And what just happened? A little
00:05:54.060something called jury nullification. And in jury nullification, that's when jurors come up and say,
00:06:01.360yeah we see the evidence we see everything that uh points to this suspect as being the one who did
00:06:09.680it it's pretty clear pretty cut and dry but we're gonna let him off anyway now la of course is
00:06:15.300infamous for this in the oj simpson case where oj simpson very clearly cut his wife's head off
00:06:21.560and killed a waiter named ron goldman but the jury let him off and jurors later said we didn't want
00:06:29.300to be on the side of the police the same way that Rodney King's police officers had been let off.
00:06:36.640So we were going to let OJ off as revenge for Rodney King. Now, if that doesn't make any sense
00:06:44.980to you, that's because it doesn't make any rational sense. There's no connection there
00:06:48.420whatsoever. Unless you view things through the lens of leftism, unless you view things through
00:06:54.880the lens of tribalism. And in this case, you have one tribe, the tribe of the communists,
00:07:01.120helping their fellow communists get off and get away with murder. Ten jurors refused to find him0.70
00:07:08.920guilty. Two people looked at this and said, yeah, the evidence is obvious. And they refused to
00:07:14.840change their vote. So God bless those two jurors, at least, because LA can bring these charges and
00:07:19.380should bring them again. And actually, the federal government needs to bring them again.
00:07:24.040Right back, Jack Posobiec with Marvel Chamberlain.
00:07:30.600Nothing will stand in our way, and our golden age has just begun.
00:07:35.300This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:07:37.060Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.
00:07:41.720Welcome to the second American Revolution.
00:07:46.120All right, folks, Jack Posobiec, we are back live, Human Events Daily, and we are here
00:07:57.760covering all of this, everything that's come down.
00:08:01.940We need to understand what's happening, and of course, we need to also support our partners
00:08:08.000like our good friends over at Allegiance Gold.
00:08:11.680And folks, right now, the headlines, let me tell you something, we know they're starting
00:13:56.780to try and get them to unanimity hey guys i think we're getting a little bit of lag with will let's
00:14:13.720try to reconnect that real quick here um you know something's up with the connection but
00:14:17.660But yeah, so this this charge that the jurors have been deliberating pretty much all week and they weren't sure, you know, what was going on.
00:14:25.140We weren't sure. We, of course, were on jury watch, verdict watch, waiting for this to come down.
00:14:30.100And what we ended up seeing here was this this final last dish effort to force an agreement.
00:14:37.480And when, you know, when that did not occur, the judge asked each juror whether it was impossible to come to unanimous decision on the charges.
00:14:47.020each member of the jury replied yes it was not possible to come out and prosecutors argued that
00:14:54.760he intentionally maliciously started the fire called the lockman fire which smoldered for seven
00:14:58.720several days which later then became the giant palisades fire six days later they have him
00:15:05.160climbing up the hill they have the angry the anger the rich losers kind of statements the things that
00:15:11.700were all done. And, uh, Haney claimed that there was insufficient evidence and we're still waiting
00:15:17.980to see exactly, um, you know, if any of the jurors do speak out after this and, you know,
00:15:25.860if they, you know, if they say anything, um, you know, say, you know, say anything different about
00:15:34.580why it was that they were unable to come to this. And to me, I just, I have to say, you know,
00:15:40.920in an area that's, that's known for this, I'm going to put at least some, at least some,
00:15:46.620uh, you know, belief in this idea that perhaps just perhaps this could be jury nullification
00:15:54.860on this guys, how are we working on? Do we have a, do we have a, do we have will back?
00:16:00.580Okay. So will is, will is reconnecting right now as we speak. So just going through a little bit
00:16:56.580And he ended up working on December 31st, 2024, because he had no plans to celebrate New Year's Eve.
00:17:07.400And they allege that he used a Bic lighter to light the fire, which they found was not caused by lightning, fireworks, or power lines.
00:17:17.560Waiting to hear more about what specifically this came out.
00:17:23.160Will, do we have you again? Can we try that again?
00:17:25.140yeah i'm here hey will so yeah just two minutes till break but but will walk us through you know
00:17:33.560set aside what exactly caused the mistrial what is what moves are available now to prosecutors
00:17:39.680no they just got to bring a new trial uh and and think about what they did that what was
00:17:45.520insufficiently proved in their view i think that there's probably i mean the prosecutors are going
00:17:49.240to want to bring this case again because they think he did it but they're going to have to think
00:17:51.740through why they managed to lose 10 jurors here. That's where I'd start with them. I wouldn't just
00:17:57.220assume this is jury nullification. I'd assume that they did not persuade a sufficient number
00:18:00.960of jurors who were acting in good faith. And indeed, because they had, let's see,
00:18:08.620eight hours of video where he was with an ATF agent and they walked through the scene of the
00:18:15.700They, you know, walked through, you know, video of him talking about it, specifically Rinderneck even asked at one point, if do you think someone might have started this fire in the Palisades if they were frustrated with inequality and specifically targeted because they were they wanted revenge on society.
00:18:36.120So, I mean, I can certainly understand why the prosecutors would zero in on the guy who was at there at this place at the time who was ranting and raving about the inequality in society.
00:18:50.860But to your point, yes, they are going to need to find more.
00:18:54.300But I'm going to say, like, you got to you got what you got to watch your your voir dire as well, because sometimes sometimes the trial can just come down to that.
00:20:30.560What if those who were once called conspiracy theorists turned out to be right again?
00:20:34.620Well, a new study that's out by Korean doctors claimed that COVID vaccines raised the risk of six breast cancers, excuse me, six cancers, including lung, breast and prostate.
00:20:42.540Researchers analyzed health records for more than 8.4 million adults between 2021 and 2023, and their findings were published in Biomarker Research, a respected scientific journal.
00:20:52.260Critics dismiss it, but the data raises concerns that spike protein exposure may be tied to long-term health risks.
00:20:57.980Dr. Peter McCullough has been aware of this since 2020.
00:21:00.560which is why he collaborated with The Wellness Company to develop Ultimate Spike Detox,
00:21:05.060designed to help your body clear spike proteins, reduce inflammation, and support heart health.
00:21:09.900Natural ingredients like natokinase, dandelion root, and bromelain,
00:21:13.620it's your daily proactive defense from a man-made virus.
00:21:16.700Don't wait until symptoms strike or something unexpected happens.
00:21:20.080Experience the only formula approved and used by Dr. McCullough,
00:21:23.140one of the top doctors who risked it all.
00:21:25.640Head over to twc.health.poso and use promo code POSO
00:21:57.120Obviously, for all of us that that we've all been following closely.
00:22:02.260A prosecutor was held in contempt today regarding a violation of the gag order because of his statement to TMZ regarding what he believed was misinformation.
00:22:15.200I would agree it was misinformation about a ballistics report that came out in the case.
00:22:20.140The judge said that he thought that the prosecutor's statement went too far and is effectively imposing a fine on him for this statement.
00:22:31.300Will, can you walk us through sort of just what are all the machinations here?
00:22:35.980Why is the gag order in place and why did he view this statement as as violating it?
00:24:58.300at least, that it was that latter statement that created the contempt issue. But I don't know. It
00:25:03.400also might have been the first statement. I didn't actually listen to the whole hearing. I just saw
00:25:06.580some rumblings about that specific point on social media. In any event, this won't be a big
00:25:11.780deal for the broader trial. It might have some slight impact on jury selection, but that's about
00:25:19.860it. What kind of impact would it have on jury selection? Well, it just means that you would
00:25:26.640ask, the judge would ensure that jurors are asked specific questions about these things,
00:25:30.680written questions. And so it might weed out some jurors who are familiar with the statements.
00:25:36.300Okay. So if anyone had heard the statement at all, then perhaps they could, perhaps the defense
00:25:42.080team could say, well, if you heard that statement, you should be stricken. And the judge, you know,
00:25:47.140could potentially be bound by, you know, this, this, you know, this precedent, basically that
00:25:52.240that's prejudicial. Yeah, that's, that's the right way to think about it.
00:25:56.640So, OK, that's interesting. So had anyone heard that? Now, that being said, though, I would see I would say that it that if that's true, then what they should also do, if I were the prosecutors, if I'm playing that role, I would say, well, if that's the case, then we should also hold that.
00:26:13.680if you saw that TMZ headline or that Daily Mail headline, that that would also be prejudicial
00:26:18.300because you're saying that you took, you took a headline that was clearly erroneous. And I think
00:26:25.820that was viewed way, way more time, just like anything else was viewed way more times than
00:26:30.140the clarification. So you'd think, I certainly hope that the prosecutors use that line to sort
00:26:35.000of push back as I talk about again, jury selection that, Hey, if this, if one is prejudicial,
00:26:41.200They should both be prejudicial. Yeah. And I think that would be true regardless. I mean, obviously, you know, part of the jury selection process is figuring out whether people are unnecessary, you know, biased or too aware of the facts in the case.
00:26:54.220And that can lead to being struck for cause. So, you know, that's that's I think prosecutors would be doing that anyway, given the existence of this TMZ article.
00:27:02.120So I don't know if it's going to be like a tit for tat where it's like, oh, you get to exclude somebody. We get to exclude somebody. But rather that, you know, this is something that they just do anyway.
00:29:32.560I mean, take just, you know, take what we were talking about before those the 10 and 2 jurors of the L.A. case and now say, hey, this really does come down to 12 people in a room deciding what someone's guilt or innocence is.
00:29:49.920And in the case of a death penalty case, death penalty trial, then they will also be asked in a separate session whether or not that person should be put to death.
00:29:59.440And so the composition of those 12 is actually extremely important because they really do hold this decision in their hands.
00:30:10.020So when people think, oh, this is kind of a dry, you know, why does it matter if someone saw the TMZ article or someone saw the statement or the Daily Mail?
00:30:26.780Right. Well, I mean, it's, you know, everybody's entitled to a fair trial and we understand a fair
00:30:31.340trial to be one where the decision is made, the guilt is adjudicated based on admissible evidence
00:30:38.620only, right? The evidence that's put to the jurors, not evidence from the wider world,
00:30:43.820not the internet, not what they might've read on some blog and not something, you know,
00:30:48.720they saw on some YouTube video, but the evidence they were actually presented at trial. And so
00:30:53.320that problem is an interesting problem, obviously, in any jury system. And different countries
00:30:59.900resolve it in different ways. I mean, we can go all the way back to, you know, why was Tommy
00:31:03.940Robinson tossed in jail for contempt in court six, seven years ago, something like that. I'm
00:31:07.960actually almost closer to 10 now than I think about it. I'm getting old. But why was he tossed
00:31:12.580in jail? Well, the British do something different than we do. You know, we, when we're, we have a1.00
00:31:16.780high profile trial where we want to keep the trial process pristine, we'll sometimes do things
00:31:23.300like sequester jurors, or we'll give them very strong instructions not to read what anybody says
00:31:28.400about the trial. In England, what they'll do is they'll put in place what's called a reporting
00:31:32.240restriction, you know, where they will actually demand that reporters not talk about the trial
00:31:37.740and not talk about what they've seen until after the trial is over. But all these are mechanisms
00:31:42.460to try and ensure that the trial process is fair from the perspective of the system. And so that's
00:31:48.120going on here right the whole point of prohibiting out of court uh discussions of the case by
00:31:54.040prosecutors is to preserve the fairness of the trial um to the extent that that wasn't done
00:31:59.000they're going to try and uh cure that problem through how they do their jury selection
00:32:06.200and so this this is key this is absolutely key to any of these pieces that come up
00:32:11.640You're you are going to find and shape the composition of that jury based on all of these little things.
00:32:18.600And by the way, we haven't even gotten yet to the fights over which evidence will be admissible and which is inadmissible because we haven't even made it past the preliminary hearing yet.
00:32:28.180But that will be the next phase of this as this trial hurdles towards its eventual conclusion.
00:32:34.300And so, Will, when we talk about all this, the reason that it seems that it's going so much slower, you know, we had the Pacific Palisades fire took place, trial took place.
00:32:46.380But even then, you know, that was a year and a half ago.
00:32:49.760And here we are, you know, just today finding a mistrial in that.
00:32:57.460Then you have but then you had other trials like Carmelo Anthony or Henry Novak in the UK system.
00:33:04.300which seem to take place in, you know, relatively faster time,
00:33:08.260is one of those differences because a death penalty trial just requires many more steps
00:33:12.860and that everyone goes through their steps, like the judge here with his ruling today,
00:33:18.320knowing that it will, in years to come, be going over with a fine-tooth comb.
00:33:24.480Maybe. I think it's probably more about the volume of evidence, of relevant evidence,
00:33:29.000and therefore the process of actually assembling it, bringing a case,
00:33:32.260and dealing with all the counter-evidence.
00:33:33.720This is, you know, the Kirk assassination. Obviously, there's just an enormous amount of different video evidence of the of the happening and all the evidence related to how Tyler Robinson was apprehended, all the physical evidence that we're talking about.
00:33:46.740So it might have just been bigger. This also might be a function of the differences in legal systems, right?
00:33:51.000Like how, you know, I mean, the UK might have be more efficient in its criminal prosecutions than we are.
00:33:55.280That's something that's generally true. Their legal system, they tend to be a little bit less paperwork heavy.
00:33:59.040so you know these things are these things can be take longer or short amounts of time for a variety
00:34:05.880of reasons i wouldn't necessarily say um there's any particular focus because it's a death penalty
00:34:12.540case i think uh you can do you can have fast death penalty cases if the evidence is kind of
00:34:18.220clear and discreet here you know there's there's just a lot to go through i think that's probably
00:34:23.940what's making this kind of a more prolonged process.
00:35:21.800His death penalty was rescinded at one point, but it was later reimposed.
00:35:26.720I've kind of go back and forth following that.
00:35:30.060And I believe his is, yes, his is federal as well.
00:35:33.600And so, you know, you do need a Republican president to actually administer one of those.
00:35:39.840That is something that a Democrat president will not do.
00:35:42.820So you've only had the first four years of President Trump and now the second four years of President Trump where it could have been actually carried out.
00:35:51.820And so what I mean to say, though, is that the system can be very, very long and arduous.
00:35:56.220Now, at the same time, in a place like Utah at the state level, that is a place where it's known for actually being carried out quite a bit similar to the U.K. court, I guess, where the process is generally a little bit more straightforward.
00:36:11.580Yeah, so I want to clarify a distinction.
00:36:14.140Death penalty stuff is obviously going to take longer in terms of post-trial proceedings and the actual carrying out of the death sentence.
00:36:19.400Like even for Tyler Robinson, we're talking, gosh, I mean, at least like I would suspect it'd be.
00:36:39.640I think our Supreme Court's really mucked it up and made it much harder to execute criminals convicted of murder than it should be, especially in cases where the death penalty is, in fact, imposed.
00:36:48.520It just takes so long and justice delayed and just is justice denied in my view.
00:36:53.100But, yeah, that that certainly will happen.
00:36:55.060But I don't I guess the distinction that's important is to realize that doesn't necessarily apply in the in the trial context where the length of the trial.
00:39:40.720And if you hadn't seen the hit to the the hit, not just the hit to the throat, but also which which we can see right here.
00:39:49.160And we know that she's faced a number of incidents like this since joining the WNBA, which to my mind, absolutely seem to be anti-white.
00:39:57.700I do want to hear what you guys think of this.
00:39:59.420But also that there was a meme posted by the Phoenix WNBA team, which I didn't even know existed, making fun of her to do a piece of this, mocking her for being on the ground and being assaulted by that individual.
00:40:16.360And so this is obviously something that would be, I mean, we could all imagine what would happen if that were George Floyd and someone had posted, you know, an NBA or someone else had posted something like that.
00:40:30.440So let me go to your emails again, 1776 at humanevents.com.
00:41:42.240Uh, this one in from Corey. Yes. And I'm tired of pretending it's not one in from Epsilon says, if she doesn't sue, if she doesn't sue or press charges, it's an example of suicidal empathy. This one in from Sandra because born free 11 to 23, because she's a beautiful straight woman is a problem. The WNBA, she should file assault charges. There's no room for this one in from sensei blaze. Thank you.
