00:00:25.780 The Poso Daily Brief.
00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:40.660 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.960 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:50.380 Christ is king.
00:00:51.880 The Frisco Memorial High School community gathered tonight in grief after the stabbing death of a teenager at a track meet.
00:00:57.960 Another teenager, a student at Frisco Centennial, is now charged with the murder.
00:01:02.400 17-year-old Austin Metcalfe's twin brother was at the track with him.
00:01:07.160 His family says he died in his brother's arms.
00:01:10.200 President Trump's auto tariffs officially took effect at midnight after that major announcement yesterday afternoon
00:01:16.000 with at least 10% tariffs on dozens of foreign countries.
00:01:18.960 That's what's coming to America, the coolest factories, the highest tech factories.
00:01:24.120 They're all coming home, and Donald Trump's bringing them home, and he's going to create a renaissance of high-tech manufacturing in America.
00:01:32.100 That's why America's going to win.
00:01:33.460 Do we want our critical supplies, like life-saving medicines and chips, being made in China, 1.00
00:01:39.240 or do we want them being made right here in the United States of America?
00:01:42.080 Every American knows the answer to that question.
00:01:44.800 China today announced that it is going to take resolute countermeasures.
00:01:49.680 The expectation is that not only are they going to hit back with counter tariffs,
00:01:53.440 but also with an expanded retaliation toolbox.
00:01:57.080 So this includes potential export controls for more critical minerals,
00:02:02.640 as well as punishing individual American companies.
00:02:05.780 The European Union has said it is prepared to retaliate against President Trump's reciprocal tariffs.
00:02:10.460 We're now preparing for further countermeasures.
00:02:13.160 My advice to every country right now is do not retaliate.
00:02:17.600 Sit back.
00:02:18.960 Take it in.
00:02:19.820 Let's see how it goes, because if you retaliate, there will be escalation.
00:02:24.100 In the face of unrelenting economic warfare,
00:02:26.600 the United States can no longer continue with a policy of unilateral economic surrender.
00:02:32.400 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C.
00:02:38.000 Today's April 3rd, 2025, Anno Domini.
00:02:42.180 President Trump is now upending global economics and waging war on the globalists on behalf of the American worker.
00:02:51.340 This is the path that leads to the return of the American dream.
00:02:57.140 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the great deal.
00:03:01.640 You see, today is day one of President Trump's great deal.
00:03:05.400 And I get it.
00:03:06.520 There's panic on the street.
00:03:08.200 No, not all the streets, not a main street, but on Wall Street.
00:03:11.220 And to tell you something, this is the first time that Wall Street has been taxed in our lifetime.
00:03:15.980 And look, I have a retirement plan, too.
00:03:18.060 I get it.
00:03:18.860 But you know what?
00:03:19.920 It's going to bounce back.
00:03:21.320 Maybe you go and buy the dip.
00:03:22.980 That's not the point of the great deal.
00:03:25.080 When President Trump held up that big, beautiful chart yesterday in the Rose Garden,
00:03:28.840 he was doing something very special.
00:03:30.960 He was putting Americans first.
00:03:33.540 You see, you're going to see every leftist pundit, probably some conservative commentators,
00:03:38.520 the globalists, question, attack, and smear President Trump's policy.
00:03:43.640 We are in uncharted waters.
00:03:45.460 But President Trump is pioneering a new future, a new American public,
00:03:50.620 where America and Americans lead the way.
00:03:54.940 You have to trust the process.
00:03:57.160 Look, how many times was Wall Street bailed out?
00:04:00.140 Whether it was the 2008 financial crisis or the 2020 pandemic,
00:04:04.580 the question MAGA always had was, where's our bailout?
00:04:08.400 Where's the bailout for the little guy?
00:04:10.500 Where's our deal?
00:04:11.780 We've had a bad deal.
00:04:13.560 We want a great deal.
00:04:15.840 And here it is.
00:04:16.900 It's not just a stimulus check.
00:04:19.020 It's not a get-rich-quick scheme.
00:04:21.180 It is a path to prosperity and greatness.
00:04:24.800 Look, remember this.
00:04:25.620 Biden was propping up his buddies in Wall Street and Silicon Valley,
00:04:29.100 whether they were corporate oligarchs or foreign leaders,
00:04:32.200 with his son on the board of their companies.
00:04:34.460 But guess what?
00:04:35.380 America is not picking up the tab anymore.
00:04:37.960 Whether it's NATO or whether it's these Europores over there, 1.00
00:04:41.260 you can pay for your own defense.
00:04:43.300 You can take care of your own burden.
00:04:45.180 Why should we and the American people have to pay the bill for your mistakes?
00:04:49.920 Why should we have to do that?
00:04:51.400 We're not going to do it anymore.
00:04:52.740 It is not going to be on the backs of the American people.
00:04:55.260 It's time for the American people to get a deal of their own.
00:04:59.840 And I think it's time for a great one.
00:05:03.200 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Great New Deal.
00:05:06.600 America first truly means welcome to the second American revolution.
00:05:24.320 All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back here.
00:05:26.440 Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.
00:05:28.820 Folks, Trump is fully in the process of draining the swamp,
00:05:32.680 and the great deal is in effect.
00:05:35.120 But the uncertainty for many is, will he expose the entire pandemic?
00:05:39.440 And believe it or not, there's enough public evidence for folks to be concerned
00:05:42.240 with who injected themselves with this experiment.
00:05:45.540 If you were forced to get the shot to work, travel, or maybe just trusted the system back then,
00:05:50.060 check out this natural solution formulated by Peter McCullough,
00:05:53.260 Dr. McCullough, in collaboration with the wellness company.
00:05:56.280 Now, they just leveled up their original detox formula for $30 less,
00:06:00.720 introducing the 3-in-1 Ultimate Spike Detox conveniently consolidated into one capsule
00:06:06.820 with four times more natecanase, 500 milligrams of bromelain,
00:06:11.800 and 500 milligrams of turmeric root extract.
00:06:15.740 Natecanase is an enzyme researched for its anti-clotting effects,
00:06:20.600 and it may work to break down spike proteins.
00:06:22.980 And you combine that with the bromelain and the curcumin,
00:06:26.120 it provides a potent blend for detoxification and cellular support.
00:06:30.500 Crafted with 100% natural ingredients, Ultimate Spike Detox is backed by research.
00:06:36.660 It offers effective support for your cells' repair, natural repair, and recovery.
00:06:42.620 Experience the only formula approved and used by Dr. Peter McCullough,
00:06:47.440 a top freedom-fighting doctor who risked it all.
00:06:49.680 How do you get access? Go ahead to twc.health.poso and use promo code POSO to get 10% off plus free shipping.
00:06:57.500 Again, that's twc.health.poso. Use promo code POSO to get 10% off.
00:07:03.440 Get back to that pre-COVID feeling.
00:07:07.520 Now, folks, I get it.
00:07:08.640 You know, it's, by the way, here's the white pill, right?
00:07:10.940 You remember the white pill? That's the hope.
00:07:13.340 So what's the white pill in all of this?
00:07:14.780 The white pill is that all the stock bros, those are the guys who are actually losing it.
00:07:19.680 Those are the guys who are actually freaking out.
00:07:21.620 They're saying, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:07:23.420 Tariffs, oh my gosh. 1.00
00:07:24.820 Oh my goodness.
00:07:25.920 Oh no, oh darn.
00:07:27.360 Look what you're doing.
00:07:28.420 Won't someone think of the Vietnamese?
00:07:30.260 Won't someone think of the dropshippers? 1.00
00:07:32.380 Won't someone think of the multinational corporations?
00:07:35.080 Won't somebody think of the globalists?
00:07:37.540 And here's the thing.
00:07:38.840 We've been saying it for so long here on the program.
00:07:40.480 We, Americans, have been addicted.
00:07:44.640 We have been addicted, particularly through Wall Street, to this free flow of cheap products
00:07:52.760 from East Asia, from Southeast Asia.
00:07:56.800 We outsourced all of our manufacturing over there, which includes, by the way, national
00:08:01.680 security interests.
00:08:03.240 When you consider the fact that, we were just talking about the wellness company, when you
00:08:07.040 consider the fact that the precursors to all of our antibiotics are made in China.
00:08:11.820 Why would you do that?
00:08:13.440 Why would you want to do that as a country if you're in another situation like that?
00:08:17.360 Or, God forbid, an actual war, right?
00:08:20.420 Think about it.
00:08:21.280 Horrific.
00:08:21.920 Absolutely horrific.
00:08:22.680 Then you think about the steel, the entire steel industry.
00:08:27.660 You think about all the issues that go on.
00:08:29.580 Of course, of course, this is national security.
00:08:33.580 Okay, it's very simple.
00:08:34.840 But on the flip side, what happens when China owns your country? 0.75
00:08:38.660 What's it like?
00:08:39.260 Well, go take a look at the country right now, because it's pretty close.
00:08:42.640 The devastated areas of Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, western Pennsylvania,
00:08:50.460 they look like they're blown out.
00:08:53.560 They look like they've been lost.
00:08:54.720 They have lost a war.
00:08:55.860 Appalachia.
00:08:56.820 And in many ways, they did.
00:08:57.880 They lost a trade war with their own elites, with their own governing class in this country,
00:09:03.800 because they sold them out.
00:09:06.120 And so when you sit there and you say, you know something?
00:09:09.160 I want to pay a dollar more.
00:09:12.400 Personally, I'll pay a dollar more at the store for a Made in America sticker.
00:09:16.520 That's what you're getting.
00:09:17.600 Because what does it mean?
00:09:18.580 What is the cure for this addiction?
00:09:20.900 Well, you've got to go through withdrawal.
00:09:22.880 You have to go through withdrawal as President Trump is waging this war on the globalists.
00:09:27.920 And going through withdrawal is not easy.
00:09:29.520 And going through withdrawal is not fun.
00:09:31.100 But I promise you, I promise you, it will cure the cancer.
00:09:37.020 And when you become cancer-free, when America becomes cancer-free,
00:09:40.920 then we will be free, right, of this crippling chronic disease that our addiction to Chinese goods 1.00
00:09:50.160 and our addiction to these cheap foreign goods is.
00:09:53.860 We're sending trillions of dollars overseas.
00:09:56.660 We talked to ReShore yesterday about this.
00:09:58.900 This has been the issue.
00:10:00.820 And there are, by the way, economists who point this out.
00:10:03.200 They pointed out, left and right, that this is something that the American worker needs.
00:10:09.700 And the American worker has been completely forgotten.
00:10:12.780 And you want to tell me something?
00:10:14.020 There's one man who's actually been talking about this from day one.
00:10:17.660 And that's President Trump all the way back when he was operating in a private capacity,
00:10:22.340 in a personal capacity, for 40 years.
00:10:24.880 He's been talking about trade issues and talking about the need to restructure this for the American people.
00:10:31.580 And I like to call his deal the great deal.
00:10:34.480 Someone that I wanted to get on to talk about this, we're very honored to have on the program yet again,
00:10:38.600 Harrison Fields, the special assistant to President Trump and the principal deputy press secretary.
00:10:43.900 Harrison, how are you?
00:10:44.640 So there's a lot of, you know, there's a lot of talk right now.
00:10:50.540 There's a lot of uncertainty.
00:10:51.640 People are asking what's going on.
00:10:53.640 People are looking at Wall Street.
00:10:55.000 People are looking at the situation.
00:10:56.340 President Trump, of course, has this major announcement yesterday.
00:11:00.180 You know, we're kind of referring to this thing as the great deal, which has come out from the administration.
00:11:05.380 Let me ask you, where do you see the White House on this?
00:11:08.800 Is this the expected response?
00:11:10.360 And what can we expect going forward?
00:11:14.640 All right.
00:11:27.100 So apparently there's some issue with the connection.
00:11:31.300 We're going to work on that.
00:11:32.720 Oh, I see.
00:11:33.260 I'm getting a message.
00:11:34.000 That was intriguing.
00:11:34.820 So I could hear him, but you guys couldn't hear him.
00:11:36.380 I don't know what the issue with that was.
00:11:37.560 But we're going to get that fixed in just one second.
00:11:40.380 So as it is with, as it is, look, he was mentioning something about how President Trump says himself all the time that he can cure cancer and that CNN would come out and say that he's putting doctors out of business.
00:11:58.880 And that's exactly what's going on here.
00:12:00.780 So he's helping the American people, but, of course, they're looking at the other perspective.
00:12:06.000 And you're going to hear the – by the way, they did the exact same thing with the deportations, and they're currently doing the exact same thing with the deportations.
00:12:12.440 And you hear all these lies.
00:12:13.660 Oh, the guy's a Maryland father.
00:12:15.240 No, he's actually an MS-13 member.
00:12:17.040 Or, oh, there was another hoax story this week about some – they said, oh, this guy got arrested.
00:12:22.300 He was just going for an interview at McDonald's, and he got arrested.
00:12:26.580 No, he wasn't going for an interview.
00:12:28.140 That was a lie.
00:12:28.960 It was just a straight-up media hoax.
00:12:31.540 And you hear this again, oh, the Venezuelan hairdresser, this and that.
00:12:35.600 Guys, guys, why do we keep falling for these hoaxes?
00:12:40.580 Why do we keep allowing the media to spin the narrative?
00:12:43.640 Here's the narrative that I want to set.
00:12:45.600 This is the great – that we are going to put forward because this is what's happening.
00:12:49.140 This is the great deal.
00:12:50.920 You're entered into day one.
00:12:52.680 You are part of the great deal.
00:12:54.540 Your children will get the great deal.
00:12:57.680 They will have the ability to have access to wealth beyond their imagination through the restructuring of global trade.
00:13:08.080 All right, guys, do we – are we going to try this again?
00:13:11.460 Harrison, do we have you?
00:13:14.240 All right, guys.
00:13:15.240 Guys, can the audience hear, Harrison?
00:13:27.000 Oh, okay.
00:13:27.760 So, yeah, we're still working on it, guys.
00:13:29.380 We're getting it figured out.
00:13:31.000 Working on those routing issues that we know are always fun when we bring guests in for phoners from the White House.
00:13:37.800 But, look, folks, here's what goes on.
00:13:40.720 What's going on here is the ability for your kids and your children's children to actually have a piece of the pie for themselves.
00:13:51.020 That's what the American dream is.
00:13:53.180 You keep sending money overseas and taking on debt to buy more foreign products.
00:13:58.680 Well, guess what?
00:13:59.340 That means the money doesn't go into your community.
00:14:02.140 That's why all of these communities have been hollowed out.
00:14:05.360 Go read Bowling Alone.
00:14:07.100 Go read any of these things.
00:14:08.680 And that's why you see the deaths of despair that have ratcheted up again and again.
00:14:13.460 And you've seen so many of these corporate raiders, the Frank Luntzes of the world, pushing oxycodone and pushing all of this absolute abject nonsense and horrible deaths of opioids and opioid addictions.
00:14:24.280 Why?
00:14:24.820 Because people aren't feeling the wealth.
00:14:27.880 Because the economics are totally rotten.
00:14:30.400 And this great deal is going to fix it.
00:14:32.500 We'll be right back here, Human Events Daily.
00:14:35.360 Today, you know, they talk about influencers.
00:14:47.500 These are influencers.
00:14:49.340 And they're friends of mine.
00:14:51.740 Jack Prasovic.
00:14:53.240 Where's Jack?
00:14:54.200 Jack?
00:14:55.140 He's done a great job.
00:14:57.100 All right, Jack Prasovic returning here, Human Events Daily.
00:15:01.660 We're going to try this one more time, folks.
00:15:03.140 Do we have Harrison Fields here from the White House?
00:15:06.900 I'm here.
00:15:07.600 Can you hear me now?
00:15:08.940 I can hear you great, Harrison.
00:15:10.680 Just checking with the folks.
00:15:12.000 Tell us a little bit about the rollout here.
00:15:14.560 How does the White House see things?
00:15:15.880 And what do you want the American people to know?
00:15:17.460 Yeah, so this should come to a surprise to no one.
00:15:20.760 If you've been paying attention to Donald Trump's, really, his life, as you touched on earlier
00:15:26.440 before, his professional and private life, he's always been talking about America's disadvantage
00:15:30.740 when it comes to trade and when it comes to what bad deals in Washington have done to
00:15:37.800 the American workforce and to great American cities like Detroit, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh,
00:15:44.620 Buffalo, the list goes on.
00:15:46.520 So he's been calling it Liberation Day.
00:15:49.040 Yesterday was Liberation Day.
00:15:50.800 And here we have people who seem to be more concerned about what this will do to Cambodia than what
00:15:59.820 this will end up doing to the American people and to the American worker.
00:16:03.740 Listen, President Trump had a choice.
00:16:05.740 He made a choice to stand with the USA, our citizens, our manufacturing, our businesses,
00:16:12.300 our investment, and not that of the world, not that of the EU, Southeast Asia.
00:16:18.140 The list goes on.
00:16:19.120 So it's not an easy decision for many presidents, but for Donald Trump, for President Trump,
00:16:24.900 he knew exactly what he wanted to do, what America needed to have done, and that's exactly
00:16:30.660 what he's doing.
00:16:31.660 And it's going to pay off in dividends.
00:16:33.480 You're already seeing people cave and realize, wow, President Trump wasn't playing around
00:16:40.240 when he said he was going to do this, and now everyone wants to run to the negotiating
00:16:44.180 table.
00:16:45.240 This should have been done years ago, decades ago.
00:16:47.940 Now President Trump is in office, and now the world is realizing they can no longer steal
00:16:53.240 from the United States and steal from our workers, and there's going to be monumental 0.74
00:16:56.420 change as a result.
00:16:57.480 Well, I think that's exactly right.
00:16:59.880 We're already hearing signs from various countries around.
00:17:02.800 I know Israel came out yesterday, some signs out of Canada saying, whoa, you know, prior
00:17:07.800 than being recalcitrant, Mark Carney seems like he's actually interested in negotiating now.
00:17:12.480 And I think that's really what Secretary Besant was saying yesterday, that if countries come
00:17:16.920 to the...
00:17:17.360 Like, this really is a design to get countries to come to the table.
00:17:22.240 Would that be an accurate way of putting it?
00:17:24.840 Well, that's one of the things.
00:17:26.180 I mean, the reality is President Trump was going to do this, and like he said already,
00:17:29.980 this is not necessarily a negotiation.
00:17:32.060 This is the policy of the United States.
00:17:34.040 We're implementing these tariffs.
00:17:35.520 This is not changing.
00:17:36.500 But if this is now going to have countries turn to themselves and say, wow, we have been
00:17:42.680 taking advantage of the American economy through our trade barriers, through our trade deficits,
00:17:48.300 through currency manipulation, and the United States, under President Trump's leadership,
00:17:52.860 is not going to allow this to happen anymore, then if they reevaluate what they've been doing
00:17:57.600 to us and seriously reconsider decades' worth of negative policies towards our American workers,
00:18:03.560 then conversations will always be had.
00:18:05.420 But the reality is tariffs are going in effect.
00:18:08.220 It doesn't matter what anyone has to say about it.
00:18:10.600 We have a massive problem on our hands, and it's one that touches on our national security.
00:18:17.420 COVID was a beautiful example of why we need American dominance when it comes to manufacturing
00:18:23.880 again.
00:18:24.680 Why are we relying on China for our pharmaceuticals? 0.64
00:18:29.160 Why are we relying on Taiwan for our semiconductors and for our batteries?
00:18:33.260 Our country would come to a crippling halt if the world decided to turn away from us and say,
00:18:39.340 we are stopping trade.
00:18:40.660 We need to make sure that we have dominance back home.
00:18:43.380 This is going to mean jobs.
00:18:44.620 This is going to mean trillions of dollars.
00:18:46.360 You're already seeing the investments pouring in as a result of these tariffs.
00:18:50.760 The countries and companies understand that President Trump means business,
00:18:54.660 and it's going to work out for our country like it did the first time he was president.
00:19:00.260 And I think that people need to understand that.
00:19:03.280 What is your message to the folks on Wall Street now that are just doing everything they can to
00:19:08.760 sort of like just smear this and attack this?
00:19:12.160 Well, Wall Street is so comfortable with the status quo.
00:19:15.160 You know, the guys that are trading, God bless them.
00:19:17.320 I mean, they do make our country run in some aspects, but they are so out of touch
00:19:21.080 with what it means to have a blue collar instead of a white collar.
00:19:25.060 And President Trump understands what makes the American working class tick, what makes it work.
00:19:32.180 He has his finger on the pulse of middle America, and this is exactly who he's representing.
00:19:37.000 This is exactly who he's standing up.
00:19:38.720 Yes, if you live in Manhattan and you make $300,000 a year, not including your bonus because
00:19:45.300 you work at the New York Stock Exchange, tariffs to you are going to be a mess.
00:19:50.340 They're an inconvenience.
00:19:51.200 They're a headache.
00:19:52.040 But when you have lost your jobs, generationally have lost your jobs because you live in Pittsburgh,
00:19:57.480 Pennsylvania, and our stupid politicians have offshored your jobs to the nearest country 0.99
00:20:02.740 to save money, what do you have to say to that worker?
00:20:06.740 And this is who Donald Trump is standing up for.
00:20:09.080 We've had generational shifts when it comes to our trade policies that have impacted 5 million Americans.
00:20:17.740 President Trump has turned the course on that.
00:20:20.380 Harrison Fields from the White House.
00:20:21.660 Quick commercial timeout, but we're going to hold you over because there's more to get into,
00:20:26.080 and people need to understand how President Trump and a great deal are delivering for the American people.
00:20:31.320 Human Events Daily, right back.
00:20:36.740 And Jack, where is Jack?

00:21:07.960 Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.
00:21:10.700 Folks, there's a dirty little secret in the mobile phone industry
00:21:13.360 that the major carriers don't want you to know about.
00:21:15.600 Did you know that the big three mobile companies own all towers in the United States?
00:21:19.840 So if that's the case, what's the difference between the carriers?
00:21:23.380 Well, there's only one which actually lives by the same values as you,
00:21:27.440 and only one that allows you to choose the best network for you.

00:22:21.860 I want to continue our interview.
00:22:23.440 You've got a couple more minutes with Harrison Fields, Principal Deputy's Press Secretary,
00:22:27.880 over from the White House.
00:22:29.240 We're walking through, and Harrison, you were telling us just as we left about how the status quo,
00:22:35.060 look, here on the program, you know, we've talked about the status quo as almost like an addiction.
00:22:39.820 And we've been saying that it's like you have to get over the addiction
00:22:44.240 because it feels good while you're doing it, but it's actually hurting the body.
00:22:49.320 It's actually causing pain to the body.
00:22:51.840 And when you live in one of these states like western Pennsylvania,
00:22:55.060 we're going to have Senator McCormick on soon to talk about this.
00:22:58.040 I understand he was talking about it this morning on another interview.
00:23:01.100 Or like Ohio, where obviously the vice president hails from.
00:23:04.720 When you really have seen the economic devastation in these areas,
00:23:09.240 it looks like they lost a war, and it almost is like they lost an economic war.
00:23:13.500 And I think this is something where there are parts of the country
00:23:16.380 who are totally isolated from that just don't understand what's really going on in middle America.
00:23:22.180 Yeah, and unfortunately, the business of Washington isn't really built for change.
00:23:27.440 It's a bureaucracy that reacts like it's reacting right now,
00:23:31.900 that flails out of control when someone dares to change it.
00:23:36.340 We saw the attacks on Doge when we decided to lift the hood of the federal government
00:23:41.140 and realized that there's so much waste, fraud, and abuse that we're now getting rid of.
00:23:44.620 Guess what the federal government did? It freaked out.
00:23:47.620 Now we are making monumental changes to the way we do trade,
00:23:52.240 to which our country is no longer being taken advantage of.
00:23:55.760 And you've got politicians, I'll be the first to say it, on both sides of the aisle,
00:24:00.120 that are freaking out because, again, they do not like change.
00:24:03.860 And the reality is President Trump was elected to bring change to Washington
00:24:09.060 and really to bring change to the world.
00:24:11.920 It might come to a surprise to some people,
00:24:14.100 but if you've been watching anything that Donald Trump has been doing in his life,
00:24:18.300 we understand disruption is something what he does,
00:24:21.520 but it comes out better on the other side.
00:24:24.200 President Trump implemented tariffs masterfully in his first term.
00:24:28.120 He's going to do it again.
00:24:29.560 But I'll caution anybody who's just worried about tariffs.
00:24:32.600 Tariffs are one tool in the president's toolbox.
00:24:35.200 We have tax cuts, tax cuts on no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime.
00:24:42.500 We are continuing our deregulation.
00:24:44.700 One of the first executive orders the president signed is for every 10 regulations,
00:24:51.040 you have to get rid of two.
00:24:53.260 For every one, you've got to get rid of 10.
00:24:55.200 And we are also revamping our energy apparatus to make sure that American energy is once again dominant.
00:25:03.020 All of these things combined are going to lower prices.
00:25:07.540 It's going to make us stronger economically.
00:25:09.900 It worked well on the first time around.
00:25:12.060 It's going to work out again.
00:25:13.480 Well, and this idea, by the way, of course, of lowering the energy prices,
00:25:17.280 lowering the cost of oil, of a barrel of oil,
00:25:20.380 which would then lead to lower gas prices at the pump for everybody,
00:25:24.640 that also goes to lower inflation.
00:25:27.080 It goes to lower prices at the grocery store.
00:25:28.940 It goes to lower the prices of housing because anything that gets shipped, of course,
00:25:32.580 it's all coming down.
00:25:34.040 And that's something where I think that a lot of people don't realize
00:25:36.960 that the price of energy affects the price of everything.
00:25:40.140 It's certainly something that, you know,
00:25:42.360 our friends in the Democrat Party seem to have an issue with.
00:25:44.780 But it's something that President Trump really indelibly understands.
00:25:47.960 Yeah, definitely.
00:25:48.980 I mean, I come from Florida, and gas prices a year ago were over $3.50,
00:25:54.800 and the average now is just over $3.
00:25:57.180 So you're seeing that already.
00:25:58.720 And the American people are not just seeing changes in prices at the gas pump.
00:26:02.580 They're also seeing that in the grocery stores.
00:26:05.580 So you're seeing the immediate impacts of what positive energy pro-growth energy policies look like.
00:26:11.160 That's having a positive effect on the economy.
00:26:14.180 And the other thing I would remind people is you've got a lot of these so-called experts,
00:26:17.200 and you've got a lot of Democrats talking about the cost of tariffs.
00:26:20.580 But they never talked about the cost of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party's inflation.
00:26:26.440 That inflation was costing the average American household $1,000 a month, close to $12,000 a year.
00:26:36.500 And here they want to push out tax foundation studies saying that tariffs are going to cost $2,100 per year,
00:26:43.880 when they completely ignore the fact that it was costing $12,000 a year
00:26:48.760 when Joe Biden's inflation was wrecking through American households.
00:26:52.420 Listen, we're going to achieve tax cuts.
00:26:54.880 We're going to continue down our deregulation.
00:26:57.880 But continuing the old ways of Washington, in which the world had a field day when it came to our trade, that has to end.
00:27:06.320 So many American workers lost their jobs.
00:27:09.140 It was a disadvantage to us when it comes to national security.
00:27:13.000 We are correcting all this in less than 80 days on the job.
00:27:17.240 President Trump, the last thing he wants to do is cause pain for the American people.
00:27:21.640 He was elected based on the pain that the American people felt, not just economically, but when it came to their safety due to our open border.
00:27:30.100 And President Trump is going to prioritize our farmers, our hardworking men and women of the American working class.
00:27:37.000 And that is his day one priority.
00:27:39.020 That is all of our priority every time we come to the White House.
00:27:42.300 Harrison Field, I want to be cognizant of your time and respectful of it.
00:27:45.720 Thank you so much for spending this amount of time with us, explaining to us the ins and outs of this.
00:27:51.160 And you're right.
00:27:51.800 You're so right.
00:27:52.340 People want to talk about tariffs in a vacuum, but that's not the only policy that President Trump is putting forward.
00:27:58.360 Where can people go to get more information about this new American economic liberation as Liberation Day moves forward?
00:28:06.360 And where can people follow you?
00:28:08.280 Yes.
00:28:08.540 So I could be found at Hfields 47 on X.
00:28:14.480 And then our rapid response account is incredible for the White House rapid response account.
00:28:19.700 I'm a big fan.
00:28:21.380 I'm a big fan of rapid response 47.
00:28:24.600 And, of course, the official White House account itself.
00:28:27.580 You always get the very best content on there.
00:28:30.560 Harrison Field.
00:28:30.860 Whitehouse.gov.
00:28:31.740 Thank you very much, man.
00:28:34.720 Appreciate that.
00:28:35.620 So, folks, we are just give us a couple of minutes and we're going to have Senator McCormick will be joining us here on the program to talk about this,
00:28:44.140 as well as a new book that he's got out.
00:28:46.320 He's been writing about this for a long time.
00:28:47.960 He is my senator, of course, from Pennsylvania.
00:28:50.940 But, look, the great deal, okay, the great deal is so much more than just tariffs.
00:28:57.180 It's so much more than, and I love the way Harrison puts this, it's so much more than just saying,
00:29:02.160 oh, we're going to have tariffs on imports and that's going to get, no, no, no, no, it's not just that.
00:29:06.140 It's also tariffs on imports, but we're also lowering taxes in other places.
00:29:10.120 No tax on tips.
00:29:11.560 No tax on social security.
00:29:14.140 Okay, so lowering costs, direct taxes on Americans and on seniors.
00:29:19.640 So, this has to be looked at in conjunction.
00:29:22.100 Also, what else do we see?
00:29:23.700 We see American energy dominance.
00:29:26.940 When you put American energy exports out on the market, what does that do?
00:29:32.000 That lowers the cost of oil, of a barrel of oil.
00:29:35.780 By the way, that's one of the things, one of the reasons that you don't want to see a major war in the Middle East,
00:29:40.380 because a major war in the Middle East always leads to what?
00:29:43.220 Oh, that's right, increased oil prices.
00:29:45.560 President Trump understands that, and that's why he's committed to the peace process in the region.
00:29:51.900 When you have peace in the Middle East, when you have stability, when oil is flowing, not just in the United States, but all around the world,
00:29:57.940 that leads to a lower price that brings it down.
00:30:01.360 That's going to bring down prices at the pump, which, of course, bring down, like I was just talking about, it goes through everything else.
00:30:06.400 Then you have lower prices for your goods, lower prices for inputs, lower prices on energy, lower prices on transportation, et cetera, et cetera.
00:30:14.380 It's all intrinsically interconnected, and President Trump understands this and understands what needs to be done going forward.
00:30:21.180 And look, it's like this.
00:30:22.700 I actually saw someone say this earlier, and it's like, it's kind of like America has been skipping leg day for the last 30 years, economically speaking.
00:30:34.360 So it's economic leg day, and everybody knows about leg day.
00:30:37.520 If you go work out, you know leg day.
00:30:40.120 Nobody likes leg day.
00:30:41.680 Nobody wants leg day.
00:30:42.880 You think, oh, my gosh, it's so painful.
00:30:45.280 It's so troublesome.
00:30:46.560 It's like, yeah, I actually, I like to do leg day on Mondays to just get it out of the way.
00:30:50.760 I just get it out of the way, and then I'm done, and I don't have to worry about it the rest of the week until the next Monday.
00:30:55.840 And on leg day, you suffer because you can't walk up the stairs.
00:30:58.140 You can't walk down the stairs.
00:31:00.420 Last week, I went a little hard on leg day.
00:31:01.920 I couldn't even sit down for a long time.
00:31:03.300 I just stand up for a while.
00:31:05.240 But think about it.
00:31:06.320 What does that give you?
00:31:07.860 It gives you your strength.
00:31:10.240 It gives you the strength of your foundation.
00:31:12.980 It gives you the strength of your foundation to be able to stand up stronger than ever before.
00:31:19.960 And that's been the problem.
00:31:22.200 All of our work, economically speaking, oh, the GDP is high.
00:31:25.720 The GDP, the GDP, the GDP, the GDP is high.
00:31:28.240 It's all upper body strength.
00:31:30.520 It's all upper body, right?
00:31:32.500 You can't just work on that.
00:31:34.260 You can't do chest day every day.
00:31:36.180 Sorry.
00:31:36.920 Even though Raheem Kassam does that.
00:31:38.280 Oh, did I say that publicly?
00:31:40.100 You can't just do arms and back.
00:31:41.680 No, no, no.
00:31:42.400 No, no, no.
00:31:42.780 You got to focus on all that.
00:31:44.080 But you have to also have leg day.
00:31:46.360 You have to have your core strength.
00:31:49.080 How many times did someone say in 2020, why don't we make our own antibiotics?
00:31:54.380 How many times did we scream for economic independence?
00:31:58.140 Well, if you want that independence, this is the path to it.
00:32:02.300 This is the path.
00:32:03.140 And I get it.
00:32:04.060 I get that it's risky.
00:32:05.460 I get that it's painful.
00:32:08.440 Immediately, it's going to be painful, right?
00:32:10.080 Just like leg day.
00:32:11.100 Just like going to the gym when you first start going.
00:32:12.860 Especially when you have muscles that you haven't worked out.
00:32:14.640 Like some people don't work out all winter.
00:32:16.120 They go.
00:32:16.620 They have, you know, New Year's Day.
00:32:18.240 And they go in with the resolutions.
00:32:19.680 Like the gyms are always packed on New Year's Day, you know.
00:32:21.640 And then people go in.
00:32:22.620 And you're like, oh, I got to get this up.
00:32:24.880 But you got to do it.
00:32:25.920 You know why?
00:32:27.460 That is how America stands strong.
00:32:29.820 You need a strong foundation to lift up the greater things that are out there.
00:32:34.640 And you know what else?
00:32:36.140 As we wind down this experiment that has been the globalist American empire,
00:32:40.780 then we don't need to worry about these things around the world as much anymore.
00:32:45.680 We don't have to go to war with Russia.
00:32:48.260 We don't have to go to war with Iran.
00:32:50.820 In fact, we don't even need to go to war with China.
00:32:53.740 Because what will slow down the rise of China?
00:32:56.680 Oh, that's right.
00:32:58.040 Actually rebalancing our trade with them.
00:33:00.920 It's very simple.
00:33:01.840 You want jobs?
00:33:02.980 You want to stand tall against the human resources class and have a job that matters,
00:33:08.100 a job that makes things?
00:33:09.480 This is the way.
00:33:11.520 It's called the great deal.
00:33:13.960 We'll be right back with Senator Dave McCormick of the great state of Pennsylvania.
00:33:32.980 Jack is a great guy.
00:33:37.100 He's written a fantastic book.
00:33:38.860 Everybody's talking about it.
00:33:40.040 Go get it.
00:33:41.160 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.
00:33:45.140 And we're going to turn it around and make our country great to get to you.
00:33:48.340 Amen.
00:33:48.660 Number one, the tariffs, this is, we've talked about nothing about tariffs for last month.
00:33:53.660 The tariff chapter is one chapter in a book of economic policies that's going to include deregulation, energy dominance, extension and tax reform, foreign investment in the United States.
00:34:05.140 So it's important, but it's one thing.
00:34:07.060 And those things should give markets a lot of certainty.
00:34:09.920 Second thing is what the tariffs are designed to do is address a fundamental problem of unfairness.
00:34:17.020 And Mike Froman, I just heard him on earlier.
00:34:20.320 You know, the global trading system has brought great benefits, but it's been inherently unfair to the United States in many ways.
00:34:26.500 China, many other countries have not followed those rules, and it's had devastating effects in my home state of Pennsylvania, my hometown.
00:34:34.020 You know, when I was growing up, the carpet mill had 2,000 employees.
00:34:36.500 It has 200 now.
00:34:38.320 So what's happening here is to address unfairness and also bring back a much stronger manufacturing base in the United States.
00:34:45.840 That's the goal.
00:34:47.160 All right.
00:34:47.420 Jack Posobiec here, Human Events Daily Back Live.
00:34:49.800 Honored to have on Human Events.
00:34:51.600 Senator, from my personal, and I'm biased, a little biased, my favorite state in the entire union, the great commonwealth of Pennsylvania, where I hail from, it is Senator Dave McCormick.
00:35:02.620 Senator, how are you?
00:35:04.680 Good to see you, Jack.
00:35:05.640 Thanks for having me, man.
00:35:06.820 Well, I really appreciated what you said on CNBC this morning, and I think that's exactly right.
00:35:11.340 People who aren't from Pennsylvania or from these places that have been devastated don't realize the effect that our current economic policy has had on them.
00:35:20.660 And it really feels like this is a great deal for the people of the commonwealth and people in places like that.
00:35:27.740 Yeah, you know, Jack, it's easy to forget sometimes.
00:35:30.700 If it's out of sight, it's out of mind.
00:35:32.660 And I did 500 visits across Pennsylvania in the last year, in the last, you know, 2024.
00:35:38.640 And you'd hear it over and over again in these small towns where manufacturers went out of business.
00:35:43.700 And it's, you know, listen, if you have fair trading, if you have a fair playing field, the American worker, the most innovative, hardworking, grittiest worker in the world in Pennsylvania, and we just haven't had fairness.
00:35:57.960 And, you know, there's lots of violators.
00:35:59.640 But the biggest violator of all has been China, and China has not followed by the rules. 0.95
00:36:04.800 And so I was happy to see that President Trump's tariffs are directed, you know, particularly the worst of its directed towards China, because China, of the many unfairnesses we've seen in the global trading system, China's been at the top of the list.
00:36:18.220 You know, that's exactly right.
00:36:18.940 And you'll have these practices that are completely broken.
00:36:23.000 The World Trade Organization is sitting there.
00:36:24.560 China was let in.
00:36:25.620 People warned about it.
00:36:26.220 President Trump warned about this all the way way back when, before it happened, before 1999.
00:36:30.780 And people said, we can't trust China.
00:36:32.720 We can't trust China.
00:36:33.460 Well, it turns out he was exactly right.
00:36:35.520 And to the point where, you know, you even have timber that's chopped, trees that are chopped down in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that gets sent to China, that get worked there, and all the woodworking is done there, and then shipped back.
00:36:47.180 And yet somehow we think that this process is good for Pennsylvanians.
00:36:50.140 It's just not.
00:36:52.000 Yeah, there's no doubt about it.
00:36:53.280 And listen, if you ask me, I'll be honest, if you asked me 20, 30 years ago, I'd have said, well, you know, listen, there's a lot of benefits from that.
00:37:01.400 But the cost became clear.
00:37:03.820 You've had free traders, people that say they're free traders, that have basically said, listen, eventually China's going to come on board with the rules.
00:37:10.520 Eventually Europe's going to be fair.
00:37:12.260 It's not been working.
00:37:13.580 And the people that have been hurt most by it are the people that are living paycheck to paycheck.
00:37:20.300 And, you know, Jack, you know this.
00:37:21.700 And, you know, I talked about it during the campaign.
00:37:23.980 60 percent of Pennsylvanians, 60 percent live paycheck to paycheck.
00:37:28.480 And so if you look at them and how those towns have been gutted by unfair practices, you say, listen, we got to change it.
00:37:36.880 And the ironic thing about it is President Trump was talking about it 30 or 40 years ago.
00:37:41.160 He was one of the few.
00:37:42.740 And unfortunately, what what he predicted has turned out to be what happened.
00:37:47.780 No, it has.
00:37:48.480 Now, Senator, I want to also say congratulations to you, by the way, because I see on Amazon you currently have the number one bestseller new book, business mentoring and coaching.
00:37:57.960 This new book that's all out.
00:37:59.900 It's called Who Believed in You?
00:38:01.320 And it's all about mentorship, how purposeful mentorship changes the world.
00:38:05.560 And I got to say people people don't realize this.
00:38:07.640 But, you know, but, you know, even I admit that I have mentors and there are some mentors that I still talk to every single day.
00:38:13.140 Actually, some that you probably know.
00:38:15.200 You know, Jack, the thing about it is there's very few people that have been successful that can attribute it to a couple of key people.
00:38:21.600 We didn't start with the idea of writing a book.
00:38:23.480 In fact, the book's been done for a couple of years, but we were in the middle of a losing campaign and a winning campaign.
00:38:29.660 But during COVID, you know, we got six daughters and they got they were locked up, disconnected from from friends and coaches and teachers.
00:38:37.480 And we started to talk about how mentorship really mattered to us.
00:38:41.220 For me, it was a high school football coach.
00:38:42.840 For Dina, you know, a senator met her, Kay Billy Hutchison, when she was waitressing, putting her way through University of Texas. 0.57
00:38:52.060 And both of those that coach and that senator changed our lives.
00:38:56.600 But we started to talk to a bunch of successful people.
00:38:59.100 We know business leaders, you know, political people.
00:39:03.140 Sarah Huckabee Sanders, you know, talks about her dad as a mentor, talks about President Trump.
00:39:08.060 You know, when she was getting just so treated so terribly, so nasty as the press secretary and was thinking about quitting and going home.
00:39:16.600 And President Trump pulled her aside and said, listen, you are strong.
00:39:20.140 You're great.
00:39:20.580 You're beautiful.
00:39:21.400 I believe in you.
00:39:22.620 You're going to do great things.
00:39:23.800 And she's done great things.
00:39:25.700 Sati Nadella, this guy is the CEO of Microsoft.
00:39:28.400 I think arguably one of the most successful CEOs in the country.
00:39:31.980 He talks about this guy that Microsoft bought his software company called Great Plains.
00:39:37.480 And this guy went to Microsoft and was Sati's boss.
00:39:40.780 And Sati was kind of a mid-level software developer.
00:39:43.160 Senator, I want to be respectful of your time.
00:39:45.340 I know you've got to run.
00:39:46.560 We're just coming up on the end of the show.
00:39:48.640 The book is Who Believed in You?
00:39:52.100 How Purposeful Mentorship Changes the World.
00:39:53.960 And I will see you tomorrow at the Pennsylvania Leadership Conference.
00:39:56.940 Senator Dave McCormick of the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
00:39:59.480 Thank you, Senator.
00:39:59.940 All right, ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
00:40:29.940 Thank you.
