00:00:39.840 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.480 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:49.600 Christ is king.
00:00:50.600 The Trump administration has released thousands of records related to the 1968 assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
00:00:56.900 despite his family's opposition.
00:00:58.680 The 240,000 pages have been under a court-imposed seal since 1977.
00:01:04.980 President Trump today meeting with the president of the Philippines expected to talk trade.
00:01:09.780 Ten days out from sweeping reciprocal tariffs set to hit trading partners around the world.
00:01:15.060 The Treasury Secretary saying the administration is not rushing trade negotiations.
00:01:19.880 Developments out of China with the State Department confirming a U.S. government employee has been blocked from leaving the country.
00:01:27.040 This comes as an Atlanta-based managing director at Wells Fargo has also been prevented from returning to the U.S. from China.
00:01:34.440 The S&P and the Nasdaq both hitting record highs once again as communication services and discretionary stocks led the gains.
00:01:41.040 Federal judges sentenced former Louisville police detective Brett Hackerson to 33 months in prison for violating Breonna Taylor's civil rights.
00:01:49.140 The sentence came down late yesterday afternoon.
00:01:51.100 Federal prosecutors had suggested one day behind bars for Hankerson, outraging Taylor's family.
00:01:56.560 The Justice Department confirming it has received National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard's criminal referral related to her Obama-area officials' manufactured intelligence,
00:02:07.100 claiming Russia tried to influence the 2016 election.
00:02:09.760 It would be President Obama, and Biden was there with him, and Comey was there, and Clapper, the whole group was there.
00:02:18.760 If you look at those papers, they have them stone cold, and it was President Obama.
00:02:24.240 This was treason.
00:02:25.600 They tried to steal the election.
00:02:28.080 They tried to obfuscate the election.
00:02:30.740 They did things that nobody's ever even imagined, even in other countries.
00:02:34.700 The Justice Department now putting out a new statement and saying it could meet with Ghislaine Maxwell in the coming days,
00:02:42.120 saying if Ghislaine Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims,
00:02:46.700 the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.
00:02:53.160 All right, ladies and y'all, welcome on board.
00:02:54.980 Today's edition of Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C.
00:03:00.060 Today is July 22nd, 2025, Anno Domini.
00:03:05.300 Folks, huge and massive news.
00:03:09.440 You could call it the plot twist of all plot twists here in D.C. on the Epstein Files case.
00:03:19.780 And this has taken a turn really towards a place that it should have been years ago.
00:03:24.760 Ghislaine Maxwell now potentially will be meeting with the Department of Justice.
00:03:33.500 So we got the information out very early this morning that the DOJ will be sending Todd Blanche over to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell.
00:03:45.620 Now, where is Ghislaine Maxwell held?
00:03:48.500 Tallahassee, Florida.
00:03:50.180 The Federal Corrections Institute down there in Tallahassee.
00:03:54.500 So she's Lady Epstein.
00:03:57.040 Lady Epstein right there and saying that Todd Blanche, the Deputy Attorney General,
00:04:05.460 potentially personally will be headed down there to Tallahassee, Florida to meet with her.
00:04:11.120 We've got this statement out there saying the Department of Justice does not shy away from uncomfortable truths
00:04:17.680 nor from the responsibility to pursue justice for wherever the facts may lead.
00:04:22.520 Now, the question, of course, obviously, I think a lot of people will have is what's in it for Ghislaine Maxwell to cooperate?
00:04:30.940 Well, it's very clear what her motive is.
00:04:32.520 Her motive is that she either wants time reduced on her sentence or a full-on presidential pardon.
00:04:41.120 So this is where the competition, the tension, if you will, comes in.
00:04:49.120 The tension comes in with Maxwell saying, okay, I'll sit down with you.
00:04:55.120 Here's what I want in exchange.
00:04:56.780 But, of course, when it comes to any of these deals, a plea deal or, in this case, a cooperation agreement,
00:05:02.780 when it really comes down to it, you have to weigh that against a variety of things.
00:05:07.540 Number one, justice for the victim, which is something that absolutely deserves for her to be behind bars.
00:05:16.620 Then, again, you also have to talk about accountability.
00:05:21.280 So if she's just going to say, oh, here's the Maxwell blacklist, which is the same thing as the Epstein blacklist.
00:05:28.060 No, sorry, not good enough.
00:05:29.440 Already been out there.
00:05:32.620 You need to provide names.
00:05:35.140 You need to provide receipts and name names.
00:05:37.620 So if Ghislaine Maxwell wants anything from the Department of Justice, there needs to be names, there needs to be receipts, and, by the way, a full-on chain of custody.
00:05:47.880 What do I mean by all this?
00:05:48.980 I mean it's not enough to say, okay, here's the testimony.
00:05:53.140 You know, this guy did this and this guy.
00:05:54.720 No, no, no, no, no, not good enough.
00:05:55.900 We've been down that road before.
00:05:58.240 Everything.
00:05:59.820 Absolutely everything.
00:06:02.200 That's the deal.
00:06:03.020 And when I say everything, I mean who did what, where did it happen, and you also have to provide information that is able to back up the credibility of the accusation, because there are people who are falsely accused.
00:06:19.780 President Trump was falsely accused in Russiagate.
00:06:22.320 He's been falsely accused of illicit behavior with Epstein time and time again.
00:06:28.380 That's already been litigated.
00:06:30.960 Who else is out there, Ghislaine?
00:06:33.020 What do you got?
00:06:34.580 What do you know?
00:06:35.980 Who do you have it on?
00:06:37.560 And if you do have this information and it's able to come forward, then maybe, maybe there could be a discussion about some kind of, I don't know.
00:06:46.720 I really don't know.
00:06:48.000 But you'd want to also hear, by the way, from the victims as well.
00:06:51.640 And you want to hear about how the victims feel about that, because Ghislaine Maxwell was the recruiter.
00:06:55.940 Ghislaine Maxwell was the one who began the process of grooming these young girls.
00:07:00.540 Ghislaine Maxwell was the first one they met before they ever met Jeffrey Epstein.
00:07:05.460 So what does this say about the culpability of Ghislaine Maxwell?
00:07:09.440 Where does she belong?
00:07:12.540 Folks, this is a very serious story.
00:07:15.520 And this meeting between Deputy Attorney General Blanche and Maxwell could be the start of something absolutely massive.
00:07:23.800 We'll be right back.
00:07:24.360 Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily.
00:07:25.480 Real or not?
00:07:26.800 Stand in our way.
00:07:28.200 And our golden age has just begun.
00:07:30.580 This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:07:32.260 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.
00:07:36.980 Welcome to the second American revolution.
00:07:43.600 All right, Jack Posobiec, here we are back live Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.
00:07:48.760 here this July 22nd through America's Voice.
00:07:51.960 Folks, did you know that in the last six weeks, 86 million AT&T users had their name, address, and social security numbers leaked?
00:08:01.880 Or that the CCP is in fact harvesting massive volumes of Americans' personal data to train DeepSeq and other AI systems?

00:09:18.760 Again, Patriot-Protect.com slash Poso.
00:09:22.620 Okay, we're very excited now because, folks, there's so much going on with the economy.
00:09:27.980 There's so many good news stories that people really could be reporting on, but they're just not for, well, political purposes or also just because they don't understand how economics works.
00:09:37.960 We figured we needed to get on someone who absolutely understands how that works.
00:09:42.980 That's why we've got Joe LaVorna, the counselor to the Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Besson, joining us now.
00:09:50.320 Joe, how are you?
00:09:52.640 Good, Jack.
00:09:53.480 I'm well.
00:09:53.820 Thank you.
00:09:55.400 Thanks so much for being on.
00:09:56.560 So Secretary Besson had this huge tweet up earlier this morning, and he's talking about the CapEx comeback.
00:10:06.460 Now, that's capital expenditures, investments of businesses into capital here in the United States.
00:10:14.240 Talk to me, why is the business community responding so positively to Secretary Besson and President Trump's economic policies,
00:10:22.940 especially when I was told by the mainstream media that the entire economy was going to crash and burn by this summer?
00:10:30.640 It actually seems to be doing really well.
00:10:32.440 The CapEx comeback is a function of the one big, beautiful bill, which was designed to get the CapEx moving as soon as President Trump took office because it was set up to be retroactive to Inauguration Day.
00:10:55.020 So when the president was elected last year at the historic election with which he won, sentiment improved, the markets got excited.
00:11:03.220 Fast forward to the new year.
00:11:04.880 We're going to get this bill that's going to make the tax cuts permanent.
00:11:07.760 It's going to have even more pro-growth supply-side initiatives in it.
00:11:11.500 And by the way, it's going to be retroactive to the first day the president takes office.
00:11:15.200 That's going to encourage businesses to spend, to invest in their product, whether it's a good, a service, whatever it may be.
00:11:23.660 And what we've seen is that chart you had just shown up there shows is essentially, excluding the pandemic, the fastest two-quarter gain going all the way back to late 1997.
00:11:35.140 It's really stunning and is a direct function of President Trump's policies.
00:11:39.500 So when we're talking about this, that means – so if businesses are making capital expenditures, so that's CapEx, capital expenditures.
00:11:48.180 If businesses are doing that, that's not something that businesses do if they think they're going into a decline or if they think that the economy is going into a downturn because this is – if you're doing that, they'd be looking at offshore.
00:12:00.900 They'd be looking at ways to protect their assets, et cetera.
00:12:05.120 They wouldn't actually be looking to expand and grow, but that's really what the president's – President Trump's one big, beautiful bill and all of these other economic policies are actually pushing towards, this idea that the American people are suddenly going to have more of their own wealth and that that's actually going to be what spurs this economic growth.
00:12:26.060 Now, that's exactly right, Jack, and the fact that you've had this boom in anticipation of the bill becoming low, which it now has, just only strengthens and solidifies this improvement and will carry it forward.
00:12:41.360 So the CapEx continues, and that capital expenditure, the spending, the investment, they're all interchangeable words, yes, is a sign that the future is bright.
00:12:50.800 It's a sign that there's confidence in President Trump's policies.
00:12:54.040 What then happens after that is you get faster productivity growth, you get stronger wages, which means bigger take-home pay for workers.
00:13:01.940 The good news is because President Trump's policy is unable to get inflation lower, we've seen a very large increase in what we call blue-collar wages.
00:13:10.280 Blue-collar wages are under a boom.
00:13:12.580 The only time that we've had a faster or larger six-month gain to start a new administration was the first six months of President Trump's first administration,
00:13:21.500 and it was only a tenth stronger, so they're basically the same, but with this bill not being implemented, the forward on households and living standards, it's all positive.
00:13:31.540 So it's great news, and I appreciate you being able to have us highlight it because people should talk more about it.
00:13:37.940 It's really good news, and it should be bipartisan.
00:13:39.920 Well, it actually is, because one of the side effects of this as well is that when you see those capital expenditures,
00:13:48.100 so this is something, and I'll try, of course, to translate it, right, for Normie speak, for the audience.
00:13:55.140 Look, everyone sits there at their business, at their work.
00:13:59.020 Gosh, I complain about it all the time.
00:14:01.180 Rob Sig, you've got to spend more on the lights around here.
00:14:03.640 You've got to spend more on this.
00:14:04.780 You've got to do more capital expenditures.
00:14:06.740 That's what we need, Rob, over here with Real America's Voice.
00:14:09.960 But the point is that no business owner is going to be doing that, unless, by the way, Rob spends a ton of money on the lights, to be fair,
00:14:17.080 that no business owner is going to be doing that if they're not confident, if they're not seeing the returns that they want on their business.
00:14:23.600 And I would say in connection with that, the relationship with that, of course, is that your workforce is then going to be more motivated, number one,
00:14:33.080 because they see these expenditures reinvesting in the business, but also if they see prices coming down, they say it's easier to afford things,
00:14:42.540 they're going to be more motivated in general as well.
00:14:44.540 Right. So this is the thing.
00:14:47.180 So to continue with your example, you have a business.
00:14:51.240 Let's buy new software.
00:14:52.760 Let's buy new computers because that's going to increase our cash flow and ultimately produce more of the things that people want.
00:14:59.160 But the point is, with this one big, beautiful bill, you can now expense 100% of that.
00:15:03.960 So if you spend $10,000 on upgrading your technological infrastructure, you could deduct that off of your income.
00:15:10.540 So it's a real incentive. And the one big, beautiful bill, there's a lot of great parts to it.
00:15:15.620 But the other thing that's really innovative and new is now you also, if you're a company, you want to build a data center.
00:15:21.860 You now can expense that data center 100% on that plant, on that factory.
00:15:27.160 You never had that before.
00:15:28.620 So what it encourages American business to do is to invest in themselves.
00:15:33.760 And then the people working there are going to do better.
00:15:36.100 They're going to make more money. Their paychecks are bigger.
00:15:38.180 That income they'll spend with them will create more jobs.
00:15:41.320 So it becomes very additive, becomes very multiplicative.
00:15:44.420 We saw it during Trump 1.0.
00:15:46.880 And now we're taking all those positives.
00:15:49.240 And with the president's vision and the implementation by Secretary Besson,
00:15:53.060 we're able to now put this forward so that the next handful, hopefully decades,
00:15:58.720 are really a golden era, as the president has highlighted.
00:16:01.760 Well, and this is totally different, by the way, from what we saw from the previous administration.
00:16:08.900 I saw Secretary Besson's fantastic interview regarding Janet Yellen recently.
00:16:15.380 But that was really an administration where all of this was driven from the top down in terms of inflation
00:16:22.580 and inflating the money supply and increasing the money supply.
00:16:26.340 OK, you've got access to more capital, but that's not that doesn't actually drive the behavior, does it?
00:16:32.780 No, that's right.
00:16:33.700 I mean, and I mentioned, you know, so we've got the one big, beautiful bill, which is encouraging companies to invest.
00:16:39.440 You've got the Genius Act.
00:16:40.980 The president has talked about making the U.S. the crypto capital of the world or the U.S. the crypto country of the world.
00:16:47.760 You need to build data centers and to operate those data centers.
00:16:51.100 What do you need?
00:16:51.640 You need energy.
00:16:52.440 Energy is integral, as Secretary Besson has highlighted.
00:16:55.180 And you need cheap and abundant energy.
00:16:57.700 So that was also part of the one big, beautiful bill.
00:17:00.480 Try and improve the permitting process, making it easier for companies to conduct business.
00:17:05.500 And that is literally the genius and the foresight that this administration has in trying to actually allow business to produce the goods and services that people want at affordable prices.
00:17:16.420 And that clearly was not the case in the prior four years.
00:17:19.380 Right.
00:17:19.860 So when you're in a situation like that, and we used to talk about the Kitean effect many, many times here on the program, we're to say that, OK, this is great.
00:17:31.300 The price of money has gone down for people who have the direct access to those funds.
00:17:36.000 But that has an inflationary effect because what you're doing is that increased spending at the top is driving up prices at the bottom.
00:17:45.280 Yeah.
00:17:45.920 Well, this thing is what the one big, beautiful bill, which will drive the blue collar boom.
00:17:50.220 Now we're looking at middle and lower income workers.
00:17:53.340 So that's really, as Secretary Besson's highlighted, Wall Street's done great.
00:17:57.380 We obviously would like Wall Street to do well, but it's really Main Street's term.
00:18:01.000 These are people who live paycheck to paycheck who, until President Trump's first term, had seen no real wage growth, really, as I mentioned, in a decade and a half or so.
00:18:09.820 So they need to benefit from it.
00:18:11.440 And, you know, on inflation, you know, we could have strong non-inflationary growth, as we had under President Trump's first term.
00:18:18.560 Growth was nearly 3 percent.
00:18:20.080 It was actually over 3 percent a year before COVID, and yet inflation was de minimis.
00:18:24.860 When you have inflation, it's typically because the government spends way too much, and this administration inherited the worst, basically, fiscal backdrop we've ever had.
00:18:33.740 And, of course, the Fed monetizes or prints money to pay for the government's profit gets spended.
00:18:39.120 And that's exactly what we had over the previous four years.
00:18:43.720 And it's incredible to see.
00:18:46.720 It's incredible for all of us to look into.
00:18:48.720 We want to get into more of this.
00:18:51.560 And so, Joe, I want to hold you over to the next segment.
00:18:54.880 This is huge.
00:18:56.120 It's huge.
00:18:56.800 I understand it's heady for, you know, folks that are just trying to figure things out out there, but this is absolutely positive news.
00:19:03.440 And I want to make sure to break it down for all of you.
00:19:05.820 Jack Posobiec, up next here, Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice.
00:19:09.120 You talk about influencers.
00:19:15.900 These are influencers, and they're friends of mine.
00:19:20.160 Jack Posobiec.
00:19:21.700 Where's Jack?
00:19:22.620 Jack.
00:19:23.580 He's done a great job.
00:19:25.560 Bringing back manufacturing to the U.S.
00:19:28.440 It's the full expensing and the one big, beautiful bill, which I think is one of the most important things that we did.
00:19:37.960 Companies can do 100% expensing for equipment, 100% expensing for factories.
00:19:43.420 If you bring your factory back here, I think we had big pent-up demand.
00:19:47.600 We are in the middle of this incredible AI boom that, you know, I don't know whether you want to say this is the third, fourth, fifth industrial revolution.
00:19:56.760 So we're seeing the hyperscaler spin like we never have before.
00:20:00.620 And I think what's really gone unheralded here is the Trump administration's emphasis on deregulation.
00:20:09.400 We are making it possible to build things in America again.
00:20:13.680 All right, Jack Posobiec, here we are back live, human events daily, Real America's Voice.
00:20:22.120 By the way, folks, there's this letter running around on X.
00:20:25.700 It's viral right now about Jerome Powell.
00:20:27.920 I don't think this thing is real.
00:20:29.600 I'm just going to say that right now.
00:20:30.940 I think there would be a bigger announcement if that were the case.
00:20:35.900 So we'll look for that, but I don't think that one's real at this time anyway.
00:20:40.460 So we're talking, though, with Joe LaVernia.
00:20:44.520 He is the councillor to Secretary Bestin.
00:20:47.020 And Joe, we talked about in the last segment how, you know, Bidenomics, it was this print and spend sort of mentality.
00:20:55.400 Print the money, spend the money, spend in government, spend in business, just spend everywhere.
00:21:00.940 And that'll make the economy better.
00:21:03.860 And it's very fake.
00:21:05.160 It's sort of juicing the economy forward.
00:21:07.500 That was Bidenomics.
00:21:08.840 It was a dismal failure.
00:21:09.900 It did have an inflationary effect, which, by the way, a lot of people said that it would.
00:21:15.120 Trumponomics is substantially different from that because it's about allowing businesses to do what they do best in a better environment for themselves and hopefully for their workers as well.
00:21:27.360 So if you could contrast Trumponomics with Bidenomics for us.
00:21:30.720 Right.
00:21:31.520 I mean, the Biden approach is basically demand side, focus on weak demand, what's known as Keynesianism.
00:21:38.880 And you basically have the government spend money to get demand up.
00:21:42.080 But demand has been strong.
00:21:43.520 And this is the problem with the past four years, in large part from an economic perspective, is that we've left with the highest deficit, highest deficit to GDP in an environment of full employment we've ever had with record high debt.
00:21:58.320 And that is a reflection of the fact that the government spent way too much money to stimulate an economy that didn't need stimulus.
00:22:05.140 And therefore, you've got a 40-year high in inflation.
00:22:07.940 Demand is not the problem right now.
00:22:09.600 What the problem has been trying to get businesses to invest in their communities, to invest in their businesses, and then to hire and lift wages.
00:22:17.240 And that, as a builder, is what President Trump understands, that you need to create things.
00:22:22.800 So it's not demand-driven, but rather supply-driven.
00:22:26.160 How can we increase the economy's potential capacity?
00:22:30.100 How can we increase its ability to produce more of the goods and services that people and firms want at a low cost?
00:22:39.240 That was what the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 was designed to do, and that is what the one big, beautiful bill that was passed in record time is set to accomplish, which is let business operate in a way that's productive, that's constructive, that the shackles of government regulation and high tax rates aren't going to impede that progress.
00:23:00.940 Because if businesses do well, the economy does well, people do well, their paychecks grow.
00:23:07.020 As Secretary Besson has said, economic security is national security.
00:23:11.360 It's all connected.
00:23:12.560 It is fundamentally different.
00:23:14.560 The results of the first Trump term were excellent.
00:23:17.880 That's why people put President Trump back in office, because they loved the results that he had in terms of lifting middle and lower class wages.
00:23:26.320 As I mentioned earlier, real household incomes boomed, and it's supply-driven.
00:23:31.260 You focus on producing things that people want.
00:23:34.380 It's not just giving money out or spending money to try to create demand, because what you wind up getting, as we saw, is inflation.
00:23:44.740 And so you're looking at this, and I'll just, you know, I'll zoom out a little bit here in the sense of saying, look, you know, we're out of the weeds, and we're talking about what does this mean to say you're, you know, I have a family of four.
00:23:56.320 And, you know, we live in the mid-Atlantic, and it's summertime, and we're looking at things as they go.
00:24:04.700 And what we're looking at and seeing is that gas seems to, you know, the gas prices seem to be lower than they were a year ago this time.
00:24:13.380 Prices in general certainly seem to have stabilized or come down in some places as well.
00:24:18.700 Something, by the way, I'm seeing just anecdotally, but I've noticed it out there, is that people seem to be, you tend to see a bit more middle-class Americans taking more summer trips to Europe.
00:24:30.920 And that is not something that you're going to be seeing if more people are worried about economics.
00:24:37.340 I'm not saying that economics aren't an issue or anything like that, but you are starting to see these huge signs of comeback from the Biden economy that we can absolutely track, and they are tangible metrics.
00:24:51.740 So I'm seeing this more and more often, and, you know, I hear people making more trips like this, and I think you're going to see more and more people sort of getting back to where they were, honestly, kind of at pre-pandemic level.
00:25:02.700 For sure. I mean, two of the signature issues which President Trump has delivered on that people voted him in office for is, one, getting the cost of living down, which he has.
00:25:13.020 So you're seeing energy prices fall rapidly.
00:25:16.080 This past Memorial Day, gas prices were at the lowest level in four years.
00:25:20.040 You're not seeing food prices accelerate as they were under President Biden.
00:25:23.660 You're seeing rents come down.
00:25:25.180 So, like, people's cost of shelter and their eating, the ability to feed themselves and be able to move from place to place.
00:25:31.520 Those costs, the everyman or every person inflation rate has come down quite significantly.
00:25:37.100 That is really positive news.
00:25:39.000 And the other issue, of course, as you know, is the immigration side.
00:25:42.240 And now that there is going to be much less illegal immigration, wages are not going to be set artificially low.
00:25:48.860 So if you get lower prices, which is the Trumponomic supply side boom like we had in the first term,
00:25:54.600 combined with the market seeking a natural rate, not an artificial depressed wage rate,
00:25:59.680 you get faster nominal wages, that is real wage growth.
00:26:03.620 That is the blue-collar boom we're seeing.
00:26:05.380 And we like to see that continue and perpetuate and strengthen.
00:26:09.520 And that will lift everybody.
00:26:11.240 The rising tide lifts all boats.
00:26:13.260 That's a wonderful story for U.S. households.
00:26:16.820 And that's what it comes down to.
00:26:18.340 A rising tide lifts all boats.
00:26:20.380 So there are ways to do this that actually benefit the businesses, benefit the families,
00:26:27.280 benefit the economics of the average blue-collar worker that's out there right now.
00:26:33.320 I mean, the businesses employ the people.
00:26:35.580 People are, you know, businesses are run by people.
00:26:38.020 And they employ the people, right.
00:26:38.340 Those people hire people.
00:26:40.280 I mean, you can't hate business, which is why, by the way, Jack,
00:26:44.020 under President Trump's first term, small business optimism
00:26:47.920 was the highest registered by any president in President Trump's first term,
00:26:53.140 even when you include the pandemic, which is incredible.
00:26:55.600 Small businesses are the backbone for sure.
00:26:58.220 Joe, we're just about out of time, folks.
00:27:00.180 Please make sure you go and follow him and follow Secretary Besant live on X everywhere
00:27:05.400 at Secretary Besant.
00:27:08.960 Department of Trade.
00:27:09.560 We'll be right back.
00:27:10.180 Jack Sovic, Real America's Voice, Human Events Daily.
00:27:13.300 Where is Jack?
00:27:15.720 Where is Jack?
00:27:18.000 Where is he?
00:27:19.280 Jack, I want to see you.
00:27:22.920 Great job, Jack.
00:27:24.380 Thank you.
00:27:25.160 What a job you do.
00:27:26.580 You know, we have an incredible thing.
00:27:27.960 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad.
00:27:30.260 But we have guys.
00:27:31.700 And these are the guys who should be getting Pulisic.
00:27:36.860 All right, Jack Posobiec.
00:27:38.380 We are back.
00:27:39.940 Human Events Daily.
00:27:40.800 Guys, I was just sent this news over the break that apparently, just weeks after his final
00:27:51.740 show, Ozzy Osbourne, the lead singer of Black Sabbath and a solo artist in his own right,
00:28:00.100 has died at the age of 76.
00:28:03.120 This is someone who, you know, I've seen him in concert, saw him with Sabbath, saw him my
00:28:08.260 brother a number of times, working class background.
00:28:12.060 We actually have a clip of the final show.
00:28:15.060 We can play it for you right now.
00:28:15.840 And that is Mama, I'm Coming Home.
00:28:39.600 So don't have any more info about that right now, other than it says that he was, so I'll
00:28:47.300 just read the statement.
00:28:48.180 The family statement put out, Ozzy died surrounded by love in a statement to The Sun on Tuesday.
00:28:53.980 It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved
00:28:58.400 Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this week.
00:29:01.100 He was with his family and surrounded by love.
00:29:03.780 We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time, Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Amy, and
00:29:11.060 Lewis.
00:29:12.620 And just total shock.
00:29:16.940 I mean, so he did this concert.
00:29:18.680 I watched every minute of the concert, certainly Ozzy and the Black Sabbath portions of it when
00:29:24.620 it aired that weekend and just tremendous show that he put on.
00:29:29.900 And he was able to do so, he was able to do so from a, so he has had Parkinson's.
00:29:38.080 He's passed away now, now deceased.
00:29:39.620 He had Parkinson's and he, it affected his legs.
00:29:43.300 So he was actually raised up onto the stage through a, through the, the stage itself or
00:29:50.000 through a lower platform on the stage, raised him up on a black chair.
00:29:53.560 And so he sang on that throughout.
00:29:55.040 And by the way, I'm just going to say something that, uh, people say, Jack, you know, you're
00:29:58.860 a Catholic, how would you listen to Ozzy?
00:30:00.160 I said, well, first of all, Ozzy Osbourne, uh, the, the drummer for Ozzy Osbourne actually
00:30:06.400 wrote it for Black Sabbath, actually wrote all the lyrics and has been a devout Christian
00:30:10.860 and a Catholic his entire life, uh, is someone who always sang about morbidity from the perspective
00:30:18.580 of warning people about it.
00:30:21.140 And in fact, you can go throughout, go and look throughout the years.
00:30:24.800 I'm not going to say that Ozzy was some like, you know, devout, sinless person or
00:30:28.040 anything like that, but they always spoke out against Satanism.
00:30:31.540 He spoke out many times about Satan worship and in fact urged many people to not worship
00:30:39.040 Satan many times over the years, whenever, you know, reporters or others would bring this
00:30:44.100 up.
00:30:44.480 So it's, it's, you know, it's really just a shock because, you know, people saw this
00:30:48.760 video a couple of years ago and, you know, obviously one of the, you know, certainly the
00:30:52.900 father of heavy metal, uh, himself along with Tony Iommi and, you know, just, just working,
00:30:59.200 you know, a working class group of guys who got together and absolutely changed the world,
00:31:04.700 absolutely changed the world in terms of their music songs that everybody knows.
00:31:08.140 I want to bring Shane Cashman over here.
00:31:10.840 Uh, you guys know Shane from his work on Timcast and his own projects.
00:31:15.180 And, you know, Shane, we originally were going to talk about something else, but I, you know,
00:31:18.680 I've got to get your reaction on, on this, you know, Ozzy Osbourne dead at 76, just weeks
00:31:24.400 after this, this whirlwind, you know, uh, farewell concert, you know, what was, what does
00:31:32.800 this mean?
00:31:33.320 What was Ozzy's impact on, you know, the culture and the world?
00:31:38.120 Ozzy was very important to me.
00:31:40.060 Uh, my father put me onto the Beach Boys at a young age and my mother put me onto Black Sabbath
00:31:45.060 and I lost two very important musical figures, uh, in just recent weeks, we lost Brian Wilson
00:31:50.740 and now we lost Ozzy.
00:31:52.840 Ozzy's impact was monumental.
00:31:55.580 It'll live on forever.
00:31:57.060 He created a lot of the metal, the sound that I love today.
00:32:00.460 And like what you were saying before I came on, you know, this, a lot of people recoil
00:32:04.720 at the darkness from Black Sabbath, but they did have themes of peace and, and love in like
00:32:10.940 the original sense, not in the distorted sense that we hear today.
00:32:14.020 And, uh, Tony Iommi wore a cross and there was the, there were these Christian themes
00:32:19.360 in it, but they kind of showed you the darker aspects of life through their music.
00:32:23.080 So it's a, it's a very big loss in the music community.
00:32:27.320 Yeah.
00:32:27.800 I mean, you go look at a song like War Pigs, which is, it's an anti-war song where you go
00:32:34.300 look at the lyrics of that.
00:32:35.820 I think that was on their third album, second or third album.
00:32:39.340 And that it was no second album was their second album.
00:32:44.300 And, you know, at a very, I think they were in their twenties when they put this out, but
00:32:48.220 it reflects the same thing, the same sentiment of anti-war that you would see from working
00:32:54.260 class blue collar guys today.
00:32:56.480 When they're saying, why are we, why are we getting involved in these things that are overseas?
00:33:00.760 We're going to go kill all these people because some rich generals and rich politics, they talk
00:33:05.480 about the politicians, you know, and you could almost apply that to any war.
00:33:09.540 And they were growing up in Birmingham, England, you know, just huge working class, uh, you know,
00:33:15.980 industrial, dirty, grungy, gritty kind of area.
00:33:20.460 And that was reflected in the music.
00:33:23.260 And I'll tell us the, the story of Tony Iommi that, uh, you know, he's, um, famously, but
00:33:28.680 you know, for people who don't know that he was working as a teenager, he worked in a sheet
00:33:34.180 metal factory and he was working on the metal lathe.
00:33:39.400 And I guess it was his right hand cause he's actually left-handed, um, that he, uh, he
00:33:43.220 cut his fingertips off on the machine, but he was playing guitar and he never wanted to
00:33:49.180 learn or he never wanted to quit playing guitar.
00:33:51.620 And so he devised these sort of like leather thimbles that allowed him to continue playing
00:33:58.120 guitar and attach them.
00:34:00.240 And, and to this day, but has to play guitar like this, you know, his fingertips don't grow
00:34:04.100 back folks.
00:34:04.660 And, but in order to continue playing, he had to down tune the, you know, the strings
00:34:10.600 on the guitar, which created this deeper, heavier, metallic sound, which really formed
00:34:18.020 the genesis of creating heavy metal.
00:34:20.420 And you listen to a story like that and you say, this is a guy who's lived through some
00:34:25.220 stuff.
00:34:25.860 These are people who lived through an austere upbringing and overcame that.
00:34:30.840 And you just don't get music of that caliber when you don't have people who have lived
00:34:35.400 through the same type of stories.
00:34:36.720 You just don't.
00:34:37.460 Yeah.
00:34:37.880 And they, they lived through an area that was torn up through world war two.
00:34:41.640 And like what you're saying with Tony Iommi's fingers, that music taught me, uh, amongst
00:34:46.920 other music like it, that tragedy you can, you can use and turn it into something hopeful.
00:34:52.140 And, uh, that's what they did.
00:34:53.500 And that's what he did with his injuries.
00:34:54.740 That's what they did surrounded by war and death.
00:34:56.580 And, uh, you know, generals gathered in their masses, just like witches at black masses,
00:35:01.240 which reminds me of a lot of the stuff I'm talking about with you today in terms of,
00:35:05.500 you know, bio warfare and the military industrial complex.
00:35:09.900 Yeah.
00:35:10.320 You can, you can zoom out from there and you can hear so many of the same themes, so many
00:35:16.760 of the same issues.
00:35:17.620 And, and we'll, we'll, I want to get into that in the next segment, but just hold on this
00:35:21.020 for, for a minute, because I think for a lot of people though, they want to have this
00:35:25.600 knee jerk response, the one, two, and I'm, I'm not even looking at the comments right
00:35:28.620 now, but I'm just going to speak from the heart that this, this is what, this is what
00:35:32.700 blue collar people listen to.
00:35:34.080 All right.
00:35:34.360 There's a lot of blue collar workers.
00:35:36.040 And if you want to talk about those, you know, when we send guys off to war and they're
00:35:40.860 forced to fight in Iraq and they're driving around in tanks and who even know what?
00:35:45.100 200 degrees in the middle of that tank.
00:35:46.680 Guess what?
00:35:47.220 They're going to pump some black Sabbath because those guys got ordered to do that.
00:35:51.420 And they got ordered to be out there or, you know, or just guys working, you know, working
00:35:56.340 in a factory and having to swing a hammer or work a machine and work a shift, long hours,
00:36:01.860 night hours, overtime, the rest of it.
00:36:04.400 This is the type of music that appeals to a blue collar workers, whether you like it or
00:36:10.760 not, by the way.
00:36:11.860 And those are the themes that when they, that's real stuff.
00:36:15.460 That's close to the earth stuff.
00:36:16.920 Uh, memento mori, right?
00:36:18.900 That, which is a very ancient and traditional Christian saying, remember that you are mortal.
00:36:24.980 Remember that you will die every Ash Wednesday, right?
00:36:28.460 Um, you are dust and from, from dust you came and from dust you shall return.
00:36:31.840 So it's, it's these ideas that, that you see reflected because you're close to the earth
00:36:37.920 and there's nothing more real than, than reflecting upon your own mortality.
00:36:42.300 And that's what metal is so great at.
00:36:44.900 It's like my favorite genre of music, you know, because in many regards, the memento
00:36:48.940 mori, it's a, it's a, makes you confront your mortality and, uh, it's a very raw sound.
00:36:55.200 And, you know, I, I, I understand people recoil at the darkness and they think it's satanic,
00:37:00.180 but like you said, they talk about how they're not trying to be satanic.
00:37:03.620 They're not trying to be dark.
00:37:04.680 I think they're trying to hold a mirror to society and being like, society's actually
00:37:08.440 what's dark.
00:37:09.740 You've, you're living in an illusion and pretending that you're not within this, you
00:37:13.840 know, surrounded by all this darkness.
00:37:15.840 So I always appreciate it about Ozzy and, and Sabbath is they shatter that illusion and,
00:37:21.480 you know, and then they open up the doorway to so much music that I love today that, you
00:37:25.600 know, you and I have talked about over the years, there's just so many bands that wouldn't
00:37:29.440 exist without Ozzy and that sound.
00:37:32.420 And I got to say for people who want to look it up, you know, Ozzy and Sabbath, early Sabbath
00:37:36.540 stuff after this, go look up on YouTube.
00:37:39.060 They're like 1978 performance in Paris.
00:37:42.020 It's like in a bar, incredible show.
00:37:44.880 I highly recommend it.
00:37:46.060 It's one of my favorites.
00:37:46.680 I go back to it all the time and there's like, you know, Ozzy sweeping out on the stage
00:37:51.100 and it's incredible.
00:37:52.540 It sounds so good.
00:37:54.140 All right, man.
00:37:55.040 I'm just, it's just hitting me.
00:37:56.100 I'm, I'm, I'm my kids are, I mean, it was the final show just a couple of weeks ago,
00:38:00.040 but you know, never, that's it.
00:38:01.820 There's no more Ozzy Osbourne.
00:38:04.120 No one's ever going to see an Ozzy show again.
00:38:06.460 That is it.
00:38:07.300 Folks, we'll be right back.
00:38:08.400 Shane Cashman, Real America's Voice, Human Events Daily.
00:38:15.340 Jack is a great guy.
00:38:16.880 He's written a fantastic book.
00:38:18.600 Everybody's talking about it.
00:38:19.740 Go get it.
00:38:20.900 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.
00:38:24.840 And we're going to turn it around and make our country great.
00:38:27.940 Amen.
00:38:28.340 Okay, Jack Posobiec, here we are back live, Human Events Daily.
00:38:37.000 We're talking about, you know, we didn't know we were going to be talking about this.
00:38:39.420 We're talking about the, the death of Ozzy Osbourne.
00:38:43.180 And we're on with, with Shane Cashman from Teamcast.
00:38:45.720 But, you know, Shane, there's also another way we can talk about this because we've also seen,
00:38:51.120 here's an interesting take, and it's, it's funny because I was actually, I was with Russell
00:38:55.760 Brand last night at a Maha event in Washington.
00:38:59.700 We're, we're also seeing the, we've also already seen the death of the rock star in a sense as
00:39:05.960 well.
00:39:06.660 You know, the rock star in the West, that's the rebel.
00:39:10.680 That's the rebel against society.
00:39:12.920 That's the rebel against all of the things that society is pushing for you.
00:39:18.420 And we don't have that, right?
00:39:20.280 We have, we have conformity, right?
00:39:22.220 The conformity of cancel culture, the conformity of post-modernism, the conformity of electronica,
00:39:28.920 AI music slop.
00:39:30.760 You know, there's no, there's no fear of the rock star anymore.
00:39:34.760 There's no like, in like half the guys that are out there, even like the Rage Against the
00:39:38.040 Machine guys are running around telling everybody to get vaccinated and stuff like that.
00:39:41.760 There's no, there's no guy.
00:39:43.840 And that's the essence of rock music, right?
00:39:46.000 Like rock music is supposed to be the middle finger to society.
00:39:49.620 Like, and I'm just going to say it the same way that MAGA was the middle finger to American
00:39:54.860 politics prior to that.
00:39:56.700 The middle finger to the Uniparty, the middle finger to the Republicans and the Democrats
00:40:02.620 was a third way for people to come up and be like, we're sick of this.
00:40:05.520 We're done with this.
00:40:06.120 And yeah, we're going to go with Donald Trump because of course he's a rock star.
00:40:09.920 He might even be the last rock star.
00:40:12.120 So, I mean, there's, we're, we're really losing something in a society because we're
00:40:17.120 a society now that doesn't produce rock stars anymore.
00:40:20.520 I think it's going to come back and I think it's going to be a huge wrecking ball swinging
00:40:25.080 in the other direction after years of the dissenting voice being suppressed.
00:40:28.660 But in 2016, when I was telling all my punk rock friends and all, you know, I was in a metal
00:40:33.200 band for years.
00:40:33.940 I said, whether you like it or not, Trump is the first punk rock president.
00:40:38.460 It wasn't Obama, you know, it's not these people, it's Trump.
00:40:41.280 And he might be a guy in a suit, but he is coming from the system and telling you the
00:40:45.600 people, the system is completely rigged against you.
00:40:48.540 The system actually hates you and we're going to blow it up, you know, metaphorically speaking.
00:40:53.100 And that's why I appealed to me because I grew up loving punk rock and metal.
00:40:56.940 And like what you're saying with rock stars, that was the whole thing that was appealing
00:41:00.220 to the people is like, okay, this person might be, you know, on stage singing to a giant
00:41:05.160 crowd, but they somehow are speaking for the people, like the blue collar people.
00:41:09.620 And, you know, the middle class has basically been wiped out, you know, in the past five
00:41:13.140 or six years, thanks to COVID and many other policies.
00:41:16.280 But the rock star was someone who said, you know, screw the system.
00:41:20.060 And it's, it really hurt during lockdowns to see like Rage Against the Machine, the offspring,
00:41:25.520 all these so-called punk rock guys, you know, become the establishment that they always raged
00:41:31.380 against.
00:41:32.300 But there are a few, you know, we still have Johnny Rotten.
00:41:35.260 Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols is still out there speaking his mind.
00:41:39.240 You might remember a year or two ago, he had the MAGA hat on, threw a lot of people off.
00:41:43.680 I remember, and Morrissey.
00:41:44.460 I have a lot of respect for that because that was an amazing moment.
00:41:47.740 And, and Morrissey, Morrissey's been crushing it everywhere he goes, right?
00:41:51.800 Exactly.
00:41:52.100 And, and, and I don't, I don't mean to take anything away from these guys, but my point
00:41:55.440 is though, is what kind of society produces an Ozzy Osbourne?
00:42:00.580 What kind of society produces a Morrissey or Johnny Rotten?
00:42:04.560 Or, you know, obviously those are, those are British, but all the American rock stars, by
00:42:08.920 the way, you mentioned Beach Boys.
00:42:09.860 We, we did actually get to see them perform here in DC, Sands, Brian Wilson on the 4th of
00:42:15.740 July, which I was surprised.
00:42:16.900 I thought they were going to pull out, but they, they actually did end up coming and playing
00:42:20.360 in Washington, DC at the, at the, the Independence Day celebration on the National Mall, which
00:42:26.680 was just incredible.
00:42:27.980 It was sad, but it was, you know, it was amazing to be able to be there with my kids.
00:42:31.560 And you see all, again, just these great American and just say Western, I'll say Western rock
00:42:37.680 stars that we, we have a society now that doesn't produce that because we preach that you must
00:42:43.080 conform.
00:42:43.900 You must be like this.
00:42:44.740 Now, that being said, you could also, I suppose, argue that you're giving people something
00:42:50.140 to rebel against.
00:42:51.900 And that is the essence of rock.
00:42:54.960 Yeah, I think that's what I'm saying.
00:42:56.700 I think there will be a resurgence of massive dissenting, authentic voices in music because
00:43:02.560 everyone's been so thrown into silos where you're not allowed to say this, you're not
00:43:07.120 allowed to do that.
00:43:07.740 You can't be this.
00:43:08.480 And I think people are young kids are, are sick of it.
00:43:12.260 And of course there'll be people who conform widespread.
00:43:14.760 That's always the case.
00:43:15.680 But I think we're, we're going to see, you know, other Aussie types, other Marilyn Manson
00:43:20.800 types, you know, that's another type of black Sabbath lineage that offends people, but he's
00:43:25.360 another person who puts that mirror up to society being like, look, everything's really
00:43:29.500 dark, you know, and hypocritical, like with Bill Clinton's condemning Marilyn Manson while,
00:43:35.020 you know, bombing Kosovo, you know?
00:43:36.860 So it's like, you're actually causing death, but you're blaming a musician for being an
00:43:40.740 artist and, you know, ragging on free speech, which is completely ridiculous.
00:43:44.720 So I do think there's going to be some people coming back, but they're Aussie is like, that's
00:43:49.160 a once in a lifetime situation.
00:43:50.920 That voice, you know, like you were saying with the lyrics written by, uh, it was a geezer,
00:43:54.960 uh, that no, no, Bill, I don't think it'd happen again.
00:44:00.460 I thought Bill wrote most of the lyrics.
00:44:02.040 I could be wrong, but, but even still it, uh, it, it, it, yeah.
00:44:06.860 You know, it, it, you zoom back, right.
00:44:09.740 And it's, it is, I was talking to somebody recently that I just met and he was telling
00:44:15.640 me about, oh, my son plays.
00:44:17.000 And you see this with like Gen Z, uh, zoomers, musicians who are so technically good and so
00:44:21.900 technically better than millennials and, and Gen Xers in general, you know, I mean, Kurt Cobain
00:44:28.420 wasn't like the greatest guitarist or anything, right.
00:44:31.020 You know, his, the technical proficiency of some of these bands was not that high.
00:44:35.960 Um, but then you, you flip it around and you say, wow, they're so good because they learned
00:44:39.520 on YouTube and they just like sit and, and, and practice.
00:44:42.480 But, but then they, you also hear they don't form bands.
00:44:45.860 And he was telling me, he was like, oh, well, you know, I was like, what does he play?
00:44:49.540 You know, your kid.
00:44:50.240 And he said, oh, he plays guitar, bass and drums and piano.
00:44:53.260 You know, that way, you know, if he wants to put some music together, he doesn't need
00:44:57.080 anybody else because he could just do it all himself.
00:44:59.440 And I was like, but doesn't that kind of defeat the whole point?
00:45:03.760 I agree.
00:45:04.480 I think we need, you know, kids in rooms playing their instruments together, practicing, learning
00:45:09.620 that riff, you know, it's invaluable.
00:45:12.200 And I did that for so long.
00:45:13.380 I love those experiences, but it's, I also appreciate, you know, kids learning instruments
00:45:17.660 and trying to do it on their own.
00:45:18.920 But I don't think that translates on the stage in the same way it does with a big, loud band
00:45:24.700 like Ozzy.
00:45:25.380 When you're standing in the crowd and the band is just blaring, it's the best.
00:45:30.940 Yeah.
00:45:31.140 Because then what you are, because when, when you get multiple people together, that's,
00:45:35.000 that's the pressure that creates diamonds.
00:45:37.040 And that's why you take, you know, you take these acts and, you know, Ozzy, of course,
00:45:40.720 being the notable exception, I would, I would argue, thanks to like Randy Rhodes and Zach Wilde.
00:45:44.920 We just saw Zach Wilde a couple of weeks ago when he played with, with Minterra and they
00:45:48.020 opened for Metallica.
00:45:48.920 That, um, he, uh, you know, most of the solo acts don't really surpass the group acts.
00:45:56.340 And that's because of that group dynamic that really refines things and merges things together
00:46:05.100 in a way to create that magic that you never really seem to be able to get when it's just
00:46:10.460 one person.
00:46:11.480 And yeah, you can have these great, you know, I don't know, like, it's like, it's like the
00:46:15.760 difference between a concert pianist and like a Billy Joel or, you know, an Elton John,
00:46:22.680 someone who could just sit down and rock it out because that's a fundamentally different
00:46:28.120 thing.
00:46:28.680 But, you know, last minute to you, Shane Cashman, the, the death of the rock star.
00:46:33.580 Yeah, it's, uh, I think we're watching a generation of rock stars pass away that define music for
00:46:41.340 so long that music that we like new music coming out today that they have been inspired by, but I do
00:46:46.960 have hope for the future of new rock, uh, dissenting awesome punk rock. And, uh, you know, we're seeing
00:46:52.840 things come back like Oasis, not that there's so much punk rock, but Liam, Liam, uh, Gallagher's
00:46:58.420 our last living rock stars who still says what's on his mind. And I'll always appreciate that. So
00:47:03.500 just hopefully the new generation of kids will come back and rock unafraid and brave.
00:47:09.060 And that's what it's all about, right? You know, kids forming rock bands together again. So there's,
00:47:14.720 there's been on this whole sort of like nostalgia kick of, you know, is Trump going to return us to
00:47:18.720 the way things were before? And the way things were before was kids forming those garage bands
00:47:25.680 and going through it and scraping together a couple of bucks for an amplifier or getting a bass or,
00:47:32.600 you know, you know, finding, excuse me, finding someone who's willing to play bass, right? You
00:47:38.120 know, and then like, you know, getting the drum, it's true. Yeah. Getting your drummer there, et cetera,
00:47:43.140 et cetera. And it, and it is what it is, right? You know, and that's, I think part of the essential
00:47:48.360 nucleus of what growing up in the West has always been about and a great society, a great society,
00:47:55.680 will be a society that produces rock stars. Use your fingers to create, not just to scroll. So hats
00:48:04.060 off to Black Sabbath, the rock stars, to rock music in general. Hey, rock will never die.
