00:00:17.420 all going and downloading as well, because we need to get the signal out as much as possible.
00:00:22.660 Look, we've done so much over the past couple of years since this show started, and we're
00:00:26.840 only gonna do so much more let's get it this is what happens when the fourth turning
00:00:36.960 meets fifth generation warfare
00:00:38.840 a commentator international social media sensation and former navy intelligence veteran
00:00:49.720 this is human events with your host jack persovic christ is king duly declassified files are giving
00:00:56.420 us a fuller picture of the FBI's investigation into the suspected Chinese spy known as Fang
00:01:02.320 Fang, who worked on Eric Swalwell's 2014 congressional re-election campaign.
00:01:08.020 According to the FBI documents, investigators suspected Fang Fang was facilitating a scheme
00:01:13.380 to trade congressional internships for campaign contributions.
00:01:17.500 The case first became public in 2020 after reporting revealed she had developed ties
00:01:22.660 to several local and national politicians while living in California.
00:01:27.200 Documents show Swalwell told investigators about multiple occasions of physical relations with Fang Fang,
00:01:33.480 saying she and Swalwell hooked up, but he barely remembered the encounter after taking Ambien.
00:01:39.420 Today, the next step in the case between Paramount and 12 state attorneys general
00:01:43.560 suing to block the company's merger with Warner Brothers Discovery is set to begin.
00:01:48.020 The two sides here are expected to begin exchanging documents and gathering evidence.
00:01:52.660 And the pressure is on because Paramount CEO David Ellison is now threatening to take the company out of California.
00:02:00.160 The LA Times reports while Ellison wants to stay in Hollywood, he has signaled interest in Nashville and perhaps Texas.
00:02:07.760 U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered the Pentagon to scale back annual joint military exercises with South Korea.
00:02:14.360 In a social media post on Sunday, Trump said that the exercises, the latest of which began on Monday,
00:02:20.620 are not only costly, but send a signal that is totally inappropriate and hostile to North Korea.
00:02:26.240 Today, the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran expires.
00:02:31.140 It's been 60 days since it was signed, and reports indicate very little diplomatic progress
00:02:36.540 to de-escalate tension in the region and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
00:02:41.160 International shipping data indicated only five cargo ships passed through the strait on Saturday and none on Sunday.
00:02:48.180 After we finish defeating Iran, which is being very badly defeated.
00:02:58.200 Pretty soon I'll be declaring the Hormuz Strait a territory of the United States.
00:03:05.760 Essentially, that's what we have the blockade.
00:03:08.340 well ladies and gentlemen welcome on board today's edition of human events daily we're here
00:03:14.340 live real america's voice today is august 18th 2026 anno dominate you know folks we we look at
00:03:23.900 the news on a daily basis and we see what's going on we see the conflicts we see the pressures out
00:03:30.300 there in our society and we ask ourselves why is it that it feels like there's so much going on
00:03:37.560 There's so much happening.
00:03:39.500 And as an American, you want to know, how does this affect me?
00:03:43.400 When does my life start to get better?
00:03:45.920 When do my gas prices start to go down?
00:03:47.700 When do my groceries start to go down?
00:03:49.220 And I want to posit perhaps a geopolitical answer for all of this, a geopolitical diagnosis for what's going on.
00:03:59.560 america was founded as a sovereign nation state not a global empire go read our founding documents
00:04:09.960 go read the declaration of independence of course we just had the 250th justin gagey of course paid
00:04:15.500 great respect to that at the ufc fight at the white house there in the oval office but actually
00:04:20.760 read what it says go look at the constitution and read what it says it talks about a nation
00:04:26.980 It talks about the needs of the nation and putting the national good first, the national interest.
00:04:35.560 It doesn't talk about the global good, the global interest, doesn't say that our government is designed for these things.
00:04:42.580 No, no.
00:04:44.980 Here's George Washington's farewell address.
00:04:47.300 You've heard it before.
00:04:47.920 The great rule of conduct for us in regards to foreign nations is in extending our commercial
00:04:54.060 relations to have with them as little political connection as possible. It is our true policy
00:05:00.040 to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world.
00:05:07.920 John Quincy Adams, same idea. America goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy.
00:05:15.360 Now, did we get continental expansion?
00:05:17.260 We did.
00:05:18.440 We had Manifest Destiny.
00:05:20.200 And God bless Manifest Destiny.
00:05:22.600 And Manifest Destiny does not stop at the edge of California.
00:05:26.180 We're going to walk through that in a little bit.
00:05:27.740 What do I mean by that?
00:05:28.580 No, I don't mean that we're going to go and conquer the world, conquer Asia, or any of those things.
00:05:33.320 No.
00:05:34.220 What I'm talking about is that our nation, which is our people, remember, the nation is its people and the place where they live.
00:05:43.040 Our nation is our home.
00:05:44.160 America is our home. And as such, when we look at these issues, when we look at these policies,
00:05:51.060 when we look at the idea of national security, national defense, we should structure our
00:05:56.160 military, our security posture in order to protect that nation and all the people that live there
00:06:02.900 to serve our economic interests as good as possible. That's why the control of the Mississippi
00:06:09.040 made so much sense. Why? Because if we controlled shipping, if we controlled the Mississippi River
00:06:14.680 Delta, New Orleans, we would be able to control the interior of the country, connect the Great
00:06:21.120 Lakes region through the Mississippi down to the Gulf of America, and then be able to control our
00:06:27.600 own shipping routes. Then, in order to not have to sail all the way around South America, what did
00:06:34.720 we do, Jared El Fuego? We cut a massive canal through the country of Panama. And I believe
00:06:43.960 we should call that the America Canal, in addition to the Gulf of America. We did these
00:06:50.140 things as Americans for the good of our nation, for our economic good and for our national
00:06:55.580 good. But somewhere along the way, we decided after World War II to inherit the British
00:07:01.980 empire, to try and become a global empire, and look at where it's got us. That's why it's all
00:07:10.480 about nationalism versus globalism. Right back, Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily, from Marcus
00:07:17.740 wars where's jack where's jack where is he jack i want to see you
00:07:37.660 great job jack thank you what a job you do you know we have an incredible thing we're always
00:07:45.140 talking about the fake news and the bad but we have guys and these are the guys should be getting
00:07:50.080 all right folks jack pacific back live human events daily folks there's hundreds of data
00:07:56.960 broker companies out there with your name they've got all the information they've got your family
00:08:04.300 members names to get your address your phone number everything about you that's ever leaked
00:08:07.800 online maiden names old addresses tax records email addresses all of it it's sitting right
00:08:13.500 there. And unless you actively take it down, someone who knows what they're doing can find
00:08:17.640 out where you live, where you used to live, and they can see when deeds change hands, they can
00:08:22.180 map out your life. That kind of research isn't hard to do, especially with AI now. And plenty
00:08:27.000 of people doing it don't have good intentions. If you don't want that info out there, if you
00:08:31.100 don't want someone jumping on your Facebook because they figured out your account, found
00:08:34.960 your birthday, use that to answer your bank security questions after figuring your login
00:08:38.960 out on the dark web, you can do something about it right now. And Patriot Protect is how you do it.
00:08:44.200 They get your information removed from these data broker sites before anyone gets the chance to use
00:08:49.260 it. This isn't something you do after someone's already stolen from you. It's something you do
00:08:54.240 in advance. Other services just alert you when your money's already gone, but Patriot Protect
00:08:58.600 makes sure you're unsearchable in the first place. A phone scam can run you thousands of dollars.
00:09:03.920 it's way cheaper just head over to patriot-protect.com and use promo code POSO for 15% off
00:09:10.060 the link is in the description protect your own privacy there's real benefit to being harder to
00:09:15.040 find online get some digital camouflage in your life and become unsearchable and by the way one
00:09:20.740 of the ways that I use Patriot Protect personally I give Patriot Protect as a gift to people
00:09:26.400 sometimes in my life my family certain people certain sources that I use things like that
00:09:32.100 Patriot Protect. It works so well. I think of it as something that I can give to people so that I
00:09:37.260 have the peace of mind and they have the peace of mind that they know they are safe. All right. So
00:09:42.120 I want to talk more about this idea of America being a nation state, not a global empire. And,
00:09:48.820 you know, I'm looking to, you know, we've seen all this news about Korea, all the news about,
00:09:54.820 you know, the different exercises being slimmed down, Key Resolve, Fold Eagle,
00:09:58.540 which are exercises that I've served in in the past in in South Korea and seeing our forced
00:10:05.760 posture drop and be switched out of the Pacific and back to CENTCOM and the the understanding of
00:10:12.940 well you know that's where the fight's at we need to fight to be in in CENTCOM CENTCOM of course
00:10:17.700 the Middle East so sent from Indo-PACOM to CENTCOM called Indo-PACOM now I'm not like I just I just
00:10:23.300 say Paycom. I was in it. We called it Paycom and Pacific Command. And so this is key. The reason
00:10:29.920 that we have Paycom the way that we have it is because of what's called the island chain strategy.
00:10:34.580 If you look at China, where it's situated as the rising power in East Asia, then the first line of
00:10:41.360 islands, that includes Taiwan, that's the first island chain. So from Taiwan to the Philippines
00:10:47.780 to japan that's your first island chain then when you move out from there you go further into
00:10:54.720 the pacific that's your second island chain that includes guam that includes others you just look
00:11:01.040 at these as chains of islands and the idea being that for the united states for our defense we want
00:11:07.260 to prevent another pearl harbor from happening because the united states has a big open left
00:11:13.840 flank when it comes to the Pacific, extremely vulnerable to naval attack from our Pacific,
00:11:19.340 as we saw in World War II.
00:11:21.500 Now, Hawaii, of course, includes what's called the Third Island Chain, and that's why we
00:11:25.880 maintain as our nation certain levels of military installations, naval installations across
00:11:32.100 the Pacific.
00:11:33.000 That should be our focus for the Navy.
00:11:36.480 That's where you want the majority of your fleet, because should there be a naval attack
00:11:41.020 on the United States, that's more than likely where it's going to come from. And certainly
00:11:46.520 it's where it came from in our greatest naval confrontation and conflagration that we've
00:11:52.300 ever had in our past. However, of course, we're seeing now more and more assets are
00:11:58.160 being moved from East Asia, from the Pacific back to the Middle East. And so that's what
00:12:03.640 raises many of these questions and many of the concerns among analysts. So I want to
00:12:07.900 bring over someone that I actually served with in the second island chain right there on Guam.
00:12:15.360 It's, of course, Tom Sauer, former EOD, United States Navy Special Operator, joins us once again,
00:12:22.400 Human Events Daily. What's going on, Tom? Hey, what's going on, brother? Hey, I thought that
00:12:26.880 was actually very interesting timing when you mentioned President Trump scaling down
00:12:32.960 some of our exercise in Korea.
00:12:35.080 And I say that because Sunday afternoon, our time,
00:12:39.300 Monday morning in Korea,
00:12:41.480 I get a text from my little brother,
00:12:44.320 who you know as well, who's active duty,
00:12:46.260 also a Navy EOD officer,
00:12:48.320 who's been stationed in the Pacific for several years now.
00:12:52.440 He is actually, he was on the ground in Korea,
00:12:55.500 in Busan specifically.
00:12:57.440 He sends me a text of President Trump's
00:13:01.620 truth social posts saying, hey, we're going to start scaling down these national defense exercises
00:13:06.280 with the South Koreans. Also lamenting the fact that South Korea hasn't been too interested in
00:13:12.080 helping us in the Middle East. And we're going to, you know, they're not paying for it. They're
00:13:16.500 going to scale it down. You know, and he sends me this text and he says, I'm literally on the bus
00:13:22.000 right now heading to the exercise when this just dropped. So this is going to be an awkward moment.
00:13:28.600 ulti freedom ulti freedom guardian or something like that i think it's the summer one yeah one
00:13:32.480 of those yeah yeah i used to do the i used to do the of course for some reason i always had to do
00:13:36.660 the winter one when it's like oh yeah it's really cold on the korean peninsula uh in the winter it
00:13:42.640 is not fun yeah korea has very extreme weather brutal summers brutal winters but he's there
00:13:48.940 during the brutal summer busan's not that bad but the thing is you know i played a lot of those
00:13:53.020 exercises i know you did quite a bit and really what that was all about those exercises primarily
00:13:58.200 you're just practicing for a conflict with North Korea. And one of the things as well that I think
00:14:04.460 is really interesting is how, you know, when Donald Trump during his first term inherited
00:14:09.220 this terrible problem of a very angry North Korea, they, despite some of our mediocre efforts in the
00:14:17.160 past, they obtained some nuclear warheads and they have a nuclear capability. We don't know
00:14:21.620 how effective those nuclear capabilities truly are, but we're not really interested in trying
00:14:26.540 to find out. And so what Donald Trump did is he's like, all right, what can I do right now
00:14:31.600 without starting a massive conflict or kicking something off? And what he did is he made friends
00:14:37.200 with Kim Jong-un. And that's something that, look, that's what the late, great Scott Adams-
00:14:42.200 Wait, Tom, are you saying that the president, rather than increasing our military forces and
00:14:47.260 military posture, he decided to use diplomacy? Yes, he did. He decided to make better relations
00:14:54.360 rather than try to build up some massive military force
00:14:57.920 for an invasion of North Korea.
00:14:59.620 Amazing, just incredible.
00:15:00.820 I don't recall him, I don't recall ever striking the,
00:15:05.380 I'm going to take a step further.
00:15:07.000 I certainly don't recall ever striking
00:15:08.880 the North Korean nuclear sites.
00:15:11.520 We didn't bomb the North Korean nuclear sites
00:15:13.400 or assassinate researchers or assassinate Kim Jong-un
00:15:17.080 or even though there's movies about it,
00:15:19.280 certainly the Hollywood and the neocons
00:15:21.560 certainly wanted that
00:15:22.780 and they were predictive programming people to go and assassinate Kim Jong-un,
00:15:26.400 President Trump came up and said, why don't we just talk to him?
00:15:29.480 Why don't we just talk to the guy?
00:15:31.380 And it's so amazing, too, because a lot of folks out there don't realize,
00:15:34.780 even folks within our diplomacy and natural security apparatus,
00:15:39.720 don't fully appreciate how important personal relationships are.
00:15:45.600 I've seen it in the business world at very high levels.
00:15:48.660 I've seen in diplomacy, in military relations is, you know, if how closely a senior officer like an admiral or a general from one nation is to one of our partners, like let's say in South Korea or Japan or the Australians, it is remarkable how important those personal relationships are.
00:16:08.740 And like, for example, with North Korea, look, with North Korea, there's one guy that runs the show, one, and that's it.
00:16:16.200 Now, granted, you can say the same about Donald Trump.
00:16:18.200 He's the boss, but he's got a team as well.
00:16:21.000 But, I mean, Donald Trump recognized this and he said, what is-
00:16:23.360 He's also elected.
00:16:24.760 He's also elected, it's true.
00:16:27.040 Slate differences, variations.
00:16:28.600 It's not because it's not. Yeah. And it's not because, you know, Donald Trump has, you know, really likes Kim Jong-un's personal character, thinks he's a good guy or anything like that.
00:16:40.660 Sometimes you have to make friends with people that are undesirable because that is in America's best interest.
00:16:47.300 And that's something that he did. And, you know, one of the things as well that I see going on right now is I think about the Middle East problem right now.
00:16:55.860 we very much hoped that we would be able to really get out of the middle east and in a lot
00:17:00.680 of ways we are we're not doing these wars of occupations it's mostly an air and sea you know
00:17:05.300 air and naval battle and look things are taking longer than maybe we would have liked there's not
00:17:11.000 necessarily going to be some decisive strike and then all of a sudden they're going to sign some
00:17:15.340 surrender i don't think anyone serious thought well tom and tom that's that's just to just to
00:17:20.260 pull it in a little bit though this is the different this what i worry about though and
00:17:25.100 what I worry, what I think a lot of people worry about is, is the danger of getting sucked in,
00:17:29.600 right? Because when we get sucked in there, what are we doing? When I talked about America's left
00:17:34.340 flank, that's open to naval attack. That's not just us. That's our allies. That's our, that's
00:17:40.180 Taiwan, that's South Korea, that's Japan, which by the way, I've said for years, and I'm going to,
00:17:44.680 I'll double it down. I said it in Tokyo too, when I went to speak there, it's time to unleash
00:17:50.340 japan you want to keep china within that first island chain let them uh what do they call it
00:17:56.100 reinterpret the their um constitution that constitution that macarthur had written etc
00:18:01.940 and go reinterpret it it's time to unleash japan they should have aircraft carriers they should
00:18:06.660 have next generation fighters they should have everything and you know what you know what why
00:18:11.020 not let japan get a have a you know station some some nukes there or something like that
00:18:15.900 If North Korea is going to have them, if China is going to have them, why not balance it out
00:18:19.940 a little bit? And again, I'm not talking about these massive employments. I'm saying balance
00:18:25.540 out the power battle so that we, as the Western hegemon, have our allies and our friends that
00:18:33.860 are willing to help us out. It's really simple. You don't have to do the nation building. You
00:18:39.240 don't have to do these massive, you know, occupations. It's so simple. And you can even
00:18:45.000 do it without warfare it's patently obvious but the problem of course is that when you when you
00:18:52.580 lose sight of that when you lose sight of what we're supposed to be using our military for our
00:18:57.860 resources for we talked about three island chains and the whole purpose of defending the nation from
00:19:03.480 the sea and and which of course we have extreme vulnerabilities to because of the vastness of the
00:19:09.580 Pacific Ocean, and look at World War II, this is where, you got to say, we need to keep
00:19:16.720 vigilant.

00:21:12.360 We're talking about sort of the way Americans and we as Americans should look at national
00:21:19.360 security.
00:21:20.240 And are there elements of our policy in the Pacific, why the Pacific matters?
00:21:25.780 And Tom, I think as someone who, you know, who served in the Pacific, was a seven fleet
00:21:29.820 officer. You know, I learned Mandarin, lived in Shanghai for two years trying to understand that
00:21:35.280 threat. Obviously, there's an infiltration threat. Obviously, there's the financial problems that we
00:21:39.760 have that President Trump has been working on with the tariff strategy. There's the U.S. Chamber of
00:21:44.540 Commerce that creates this massive issue. But but from the naval perspective, any future
00:21:50.800 confrontation with China will be a naval confrontation. It's very simple. Geographics
00:21:57.180 are destiny there. They are our largest near-peer competitor in the Pacific. And for folks who have
00:22:05.480 slept apparently on Mahan's influence of sea power on history, then you could just take one look at
00:22:11.580 the massive lake that we have right next to us and who's sitting on the other side. China is building
00:22:18.560 new aircraft carriers at a massive clip. China is certainly going to start using them. They're
00:22:24.520 going to have the ability to reach out and touch someone in the blue water very, very quickly.
00:22:30.680 They are not some rundown backwater country anymore like they were in the 1940s. Now,
00:22:38.480 at the same time, does that mean they're directly hostile to us? Maybe not right now,
00:22:42.780 but could they be? We saw the interference in the election. We see the spying that's going on. We
00:22:47.140 saw, you know, we had the, you know, this obvious intelligence operation with Eric Swalwell
00:22:51.700 and fang fang where i contest that he was she was running him as an op by the way what would
00:22:58.000 what tasking did the chinese have for swallwell so tom this is why we have hawaii this is why we
00:23:05.120 have guam this is why we have the implements that we have across the region and i think i think that
00:23:11.740 as a as a government as a as a military so far you know so often people just don't explain it that
00:23:18.940 way. Yeah, man. And also, one thing to point out is one of the great picks that Donald Trump made
00:23:24.700 during his second term is making Bridge Colby, Elbridge Colby, the undersecretary of war for
00:23:30.480 policy. And he is obviously a friend of ours. I read his book, Strategy of Denial. And his book
00:23:38.640 can be summed up in one way. It's all about what we're talking about right now. And that is China
00:23:43.100 is, you know, from a national security geopolitical strategy standpoint, because he's the strategy
00:23:49.240 guy, is that China's the only game in town. And no, we can't walk and chew gum at the same time,
00:23:56.100 as some people might like to think. And every once in a while, I look and I see a lot of the
00:24:00.060 stuff that's going on still in the Middle East. It's getting a lot of attention. It almost is
00:24:04.040 getting too much attention in some regards. But, you know, I've always wondered, like, man,
00:24:07.980 someone needs to do a welfare check on Bridge Colby. Is he just beating his head on his desk
00:24:11.620 every morning. I'm not sure. But the thing is, though, is we are making a lot of moves there
00:24:15.600 because like you said, the map matters so much because you are all the way from South Korea and
00:24:21.980 all the way to that throughout that first island chain is China is completely blocked in by
00:24:27.920 countries that are friendly with us and not necessarily friendly with China and especially
00:24:33.940 the Japanese. I think that's a great, you know, a great partner. I love Japan. I've been stationed
00:24:39.420 there you spend time there my brother's stationed there for now until he moves to dc and like that
00:24:44.300 is protecting all that now we look and we see taiwan you know if china does take taiwan whether
00:24:51.280 forcefully or you know not forcefully that will really kind of open them up to the rest of the
00:24:57.400 rest of the world and by the way by the way tom before before we um uh before we go off of japan
00:25:03.240 i i want to throw out that this is not a this isn't some cold issue because what did vladimir
00:25:08.320 Putin do this week? A lot of people missed this. What did Vladimir Putin do? He visited the Kirill
00:25:13.560 Islands for the very first time. I believe that any Russian leader has actually gone to visit
00:25:19.600 them. What are the Kirill Islands, you ask? They're south of Vladivostok and they're directly
00:25:24.360 north of Sapporo. They're very sort of directly north of the Japanese home islands. What does
00:25:30.480 that mean? So Japan has claimed that they are Japanese islands. Russia has held has held them
00:25:37.320 for years and putin himself just went there and so you know you're looking at a situation where
00:25:43.000 russia and china now have set up and have solidified their alliance and what is and who's
00:25:48.280 china's biggest competitor the japanese so now you've got putin potentially himself putting a
00:25:53.380 little bit of pressure on the japanese north and i think that's a big uh mistake that we made in
00:26:00.080 the previous administration under the biden administration is like look and that came to
00:26:04.820 with Ukraine stuff, right?
00:26:06.180 And look, this isn't me defending Vladimir Putin
00:26:08.860 saying he's a great guy.
00:26:10.260 And like I said earlier, talking about Kim Jong-un,
00:26:12.520 sometimes you have to make nice with people
00:26:15.000 who might not be that friendly of guys, right?
00:26:19.900 They're not always the best people,
00:26:21.600 but it's in America's geopolitical interest.
00:26:24.180 So what do we do with all of this proxy war on Ukraine?
00:26:28.340 And I'm not saying that, oh, the Russians were great guys
00:26:30.520 or anything like that, no.
00:26:31.680 But what we did is we drove the Russians
00:26:34.020 into the Chinese's arms.
00:26:35.940 Now, in the grand scheme of things,
00:26:37.320 it probably would be in America's best interest
00:26:40.040 to at least have some sort of modus vivendi,
00:26:42.720 so to speak, with the Russians
00:26:44.760 in the sense of, look, China and Russia
00:26:47.240 have never really liked each other that much,
00:26:49.220 but we've driven the Russians into the Chinese arms,
00:26:51.360 and that's not really good for us.
00:26:52.660 So now you see Vladimir Putin
00:26:54.920 showing up to the Kyrgyz Islands,
00:26:56.700 showing a little bit more interest
00:26:58.100 in that side of the world
00:26:59.100 because we've been funding a war against him.
00:27:02.120 And we can argue whether or not
00:27:03.720 You know, who is at fault for the Ukraine war?
00:27:06.040 Because, yes, obviously, the Russians invaded.
00:27:07.760 No, Tom, this is key.
00:27:09.680 The Pacific is everything as well as the global north.
00:27:14.520 Tom, where can people follow you?
00:27:16.160 Oh, you always catch me on Twitter,

00:29:01.940 book, which is now, it's upcoming, it's available now on Amazon for pre-sale, Unhumans second
00:29:09.060 edition, Unhumans socialist revolution. Joshua, how are you? I'm pretty dandy. Thanks for having
00:29:15.780 me on jack well and joshua i think we just need to come right out and say it that uh we have
00:29:21.580 and and boy it was a it was a late minute edition we just slipped it right in there at the goal line
00:29:27.140 at the at the buzzer we've now added a chapter into on humans version 2 v2 on fifth wave feminism
00:29:37.560 in response response to not only because of but certainly in large part in response to the lindsey
00:29:45.000 Clancy situation, because we're trying to figure out and explain, by the way, what the heck is
00:29:50.900 going on. We're a true crime lover that I know you have been seeing everything about this Lindsay
00:29:55.900 Clancy case. And we're going to talk about why I think and know, allegedly, allegedly, Patrick did
00:30:02.380 it, not her. It was her husband, 100%. He did it. Okay, he did it. He set her up. And you're not
00:30:08.740 going to convince me otherwise. It's not because I'm a woman and I'm rallying behind women. No,
00:30:12.540 no, no, no, no. That has nothing to do with it. Okay. He, there's so many things that have already
00:30:17.040 been proven in this case is far from over. First of all, her lawyer, her lawyer is incredible and
00:30:21.860 you can tell how much he cares about her. And the part where he said that if she herself during
00:30:28.940 this case, then it's not on him and that she likely will that, but I mean, can you imagine
00:30:35.280 like this may, I'm telling you, he did it. And he is putting this woman through the worst
00:30:39.420 form of torture and hell a human being could ever experience those cries are not the cries
00:30:45.580 of some but you don't you cannot fake that joshua we need to reopen the mental asylums
00:30:52.200 and we need to start asking questions about why it was that we walked away from lobotomies what
00:30:57.820 say you well what says me is the reason that this is a unique demonstration of a flashpoint in our
00:31:05.220 culture and our society as an actual new wave of feminism. The previous waves of feminism have
00:31:11.680 all come under the guise of liberation of the oppressed from the shackling of the oppressor.
00:31:19.720 Does this not sound familiar? The correct understanding of the feminist revolution,
00:31:24.100 first wave feminism, begins in 1917 with the Bolshevik revolution, which is kicked off with
00:31:32.340 an empire-wide, an international women's day that occurred. So you have the launch of first wave
00:31:40.260 feminism at the outset of the Bolshevik revolution there in Russia. And the two ideologies have been
00:31:47.100 intertwined ever since. Actually, Joshua, I'll add, can I even add just real quick?
00:31:53.980 So socioeconomic Marxism says that it's the oppressed and the oppressor, you know, the landowner
00:31:59.180 and the and the poor uh the serf right feminism says it's it's the men against the women and each
00:32:07.640 stage or wave or phase of feminism has been an increased granting of more and more and more
00:32:14.320 power for women by virtue of their gender their sex and now at the expense first at the expense
00:32:21.900 of men and fathers husbands and now at the expense of children and it used to be just
00:32:28.500 pre-born children second wave feminism third wave feminism but now we've reached a new stage which
00:32:34.660 is going to be something like post-birth abortion rights maternal freedom protections they're going
00:32:40.900 to call it uh my rights don't end at the birth canal and i think that is demonstrated by this
00:32:49.060 she didn't do it and if she did it's her husband's fault well joshua i wanted to just add there that
00:32:56.320 not only was it was so the Bolshevik Revolution, of course, the most famous example of something
00:33:02.060 that was started again on International Women's Day with a women's strike. You can even go back
00:33:08.180 to the French Revolution. Now, the French Revolution had already begun before this occurred.
00:33:13.440 But when when King Louis and Marie Antoinette fled to the Palace of Versailles, who was it that went
00:33:20.880 and occupied Versailles. Oh, it was known as the Women's March of Versailles, the Women's March.
00:33:29.280 Doesn't that sound familiar? Oh, right. The exact same group that marched in Washington, D.C.
00:33:34.740 the very day after Donald Trump was elected the very first time, inaugurated the very first time.
00:33:41.220 So we again, we see these parallels throughout our history, throughout the studies that we've done
00:33:47.960 in Unhumans, and now the new book, Unhumans, Socialist Revolution, the second edition.
00:33:53.900 And we're giving an explanation to people so that when you're seeing the media, when
00:33:57.800 you're looking at the news every day, you don't have to say, oh my gosh, that's crazy.
00:34:01.780 You can just open the book up.
00:34:03.340 And in our 12 new chapters, you will be able to see, wow, this is exactly what Jack and
00:34:10.800 Joshua told me would happen.
00:34:12.180 unfortunately it sometimes sucks to be right because we see headlines break days or weeks
00:34:20.540 or months after he predicted that was going to happen i guess that's the penalty of being a
00:34:25.660 prophet but that said there seems to be and this is what is most disturbing with the lindsey clancy
00:34:32.960 affair and why so many of us are taken aback at this mass psychosis where you've got uh let's say
00:34:40.880 an activation across social media, across the political aisle, and even in various faith,
00:34:48.440 even some self-professed Christians. I knew that this was a problem when last, I think it was last
00:34:53.280 Friday, I made the mistake of opening up Facebook, as one does, and it's conservative Christian mom
00:34:59.320 after conservative Christian mom saying what? I wish I could give Lindsay a hug. That could
00:35:05.220 totally have been me. I totally relate. Oh, it's just so hard. And this one sort of excusal after
00:35:11.940 another, followed by a conspiracy of how it actually had to be her husband. He didn't support
00:35:17.580 her enough. And if he did, then it was too much. So he enabled her and it's still his fault.
00:35:22.400 And it's like fifth wave feminism takes us back to the garden of Eden, frankly, where you have
00:35:29.120 the woman committing this uh this this sinful act and the man kind of standing by all just
00:35:35.080 letting it happen unfortunately simping is a deadly act and like you say jack the most
00:35:43.440 masculine word of the english language is is no and to the crime truthers to the clancy stances
00:35:52.380 We have to simply say what?
00:35:54.740 No.
00:35:55.700 We must say no.
00:35:59.280 Yeah, and Joshua, that's exactly right, because it's something that we said in the interview early on for the first edition of the book, Now with Unhuman Socialist Revolution.
00:36:13.380 It is something that we have to say again.
00:36:15.500 And I remember back in, I believe it was November, I was on stage in California with Megyn Kelly, and I said, it is time for the men to take charge.
00:36:26.320 It's time for the men to focus on things.
00:36:28.900 It's time for the men to lead.
00:36:29.980 And, in fact, I hear from so many of my female conservative friends or followers, and they'll say, why didn't the man take charge?
00:36:40.500 Why didn't the man take charge in the Lindsey Clancy situation?
00:36:43.760 And I say, you know what? I completely agree.
00:36:48.020 I do. Yes, I think we have a nationwide epidemic of of husband simping in popular culture.
00:36:54.480 These are called the wife guys who will say my wife can do so wrong.
00:36:58.560 I love my wife. I have to check with my wife. I got to get permission for my wife.
00:37:02.640 And we see, you know, I'm taking my wife's name as I get married.
00:37:06.200 One of the more extreme version of this.
00:37:07.780 And as the details of the case have come out, the unfortunate husband who experienced the most extreme grief a father can possibly experience, if you look at the facts of the case that we're aware of, it's as if he did everything he possibly could to make his wife's life as easy as possible.
00:37:26.400 Taking time off of work, hiring caregivers, hiring this traditional help, providing the absolute best possible medical care, psychiatric care, prescriptions, therapy.
00:37:34.940 uh you hear these phrases about mental load and emotional labor it's as if he did everything he
00:37:42.020 possibly could to eliminate the mental load and that emotional labor and this is the direct
00:37:47.060 consequence and and we're seeing some of these bullying tactics being deployed right now
00:37:52.200 where you need to agree with my take on lindsey clancy um we've got a break here but you know um
00:37:59.180 i just want to say but the one thing the one thing that we did not say i'm just going to say
00:38:04.060 that we did not see in this situation was a man taking charge of the situation and doing
00:38:11.680 what needed to be done. Jack Posobiec, right back, Human Events Daily, your America's Voice.
00:38:28.300 We're going to call this the Jack Posobiec Appreciation Hour. I can say confidently,
00:38:32.240 I believe, I think Josh Shapiro would be the vice presidential nominee if it wasn't for Jack Posobiec.
00:38:37.040 And that is, I'll be honest.
00:38:44.600 All right, folks, Jack Posobiec, we're back live, Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice.
00:38:48.600 We're all in it with Joshua Lysak, who is the co-author, along with myself, of our upcoming new edition,
00:38:53.860 the second edition to UnHuman's Socialist Revolution.
00:38:57.440 You can go now and check it out.
00:38:59.320 It's available for pre-sale.
00:39:00.820 it's up on amazon.com again that book is unhumans socialist revolution joshua we're talking about
00:39:09.020 fifth wave feminism and and we can see all right i can go on tiktok and the the videos coming out
00:39:14.600 are completely insane uh women are jumping out of windows trying to recreate the what they claim
00:39:20.600 is a staged uh suicide attempt i've seen women um using barbie dolls to try to and i don't want
00:39:27.980 to discuss it because it's actually so morbid and cruel, but to try to stage where the bodies
00:39:33.260 of the children were found. That was a video I saw just before I went to air today. Here's what
00:39:38.180 I want to go to. It's not just about the crime true thing. It's not just about the massive
00:39:43.860 imbalance between women's, you know, women's status and men's status in society today.
00:39:50.860 But Joshua, where does it come from?
00:39:54.040 Where does this stem from?
00:39:57.780 What is the genesis of the fifth wave feminist?
00:40:02.240 Well, right there, I think we find ourselves the word of the answer.
00:40:06.220 And it is, for better or worse, it is genesis.
00:40:10.880 And I think it's critical to understand why this is the first story of humanity in the Bible.
00:40:16.420 It is, let's see, it's the conversations between and among Adam and Eve, the serpent, God, the creator, and the dynamic that is present there, where there's deception that is levied against the woman and to manipulate her.
00:40:34.420 And the man does what?
00:40:35.680 Does he say no?
00:40:36.900 Does he offer correction, direction, so on and so forth?
00:40:40.340 No, he simps.
00:40:42.220 He simps.
00:40:43.620 And simping is where one does not do what is correct.
00:40:48.400 Are you calling Adam a simp in the Garden of Eden?
00:40:51.220 Is that what you're saying right now?
00:40:53.000 Yes.
00:40:53.680 The usual frame, original sin.
00:40:56.240 Reframe, original simp.
00:40:58.960 And of course, simping is where one fails to correct a woman
00:41:04.100 or very simply say no or even a minimum viable.
00:41:08.480 I don't think that's a good idea, honey.
00:41:10.700 Simping is where you go along to get along.
00:41:12.600 happy wife, happy life. Well, if I say no, if I don't approve, she'll get mad. She'll throw a
00:41:19.360 tantrum. She'll make my life miserable. If that's your status quo, gentlemen, understand that the
00:41:26.680 Lindsay Clancy case seems to provide one among myriad more examples, going back to the first
00:41:33.700 human beings of what happens when you are too afraid to tell a woman no people die
00:41:43.300 people die when you're too afraid to tell a woman no and if you find yourself in a situation where
00:41:51.680 you are too afraid that tells us that you need to get a little bit of courage a little bit of
00:41:58.820 boldness, a little bit of bravery. You've been simping for too long and now it's time to frankly
00:42:03.960 be a man. And when we look at those who have fought communism successfully and its slower
00:42:10.880 moving glacial counterpart, socialism, the socialist uprising, revolutions, who is always
00:42:17.200 the one to stop it? Not just a man, but a dad, a father has consistently the one to put a stop to
00:42:25.700 it um we have we have mutual friends who regularly talk about how civilization is built by and
00:42:32.420 maintained by fathers and when we don't look after our children because we're afraid of upsetting the
00:42:38.720 wife uh then we are committing an atom yeah and and here's here's the way i look at it right and
00:42:46.180 and of course it's it's this is where we see in the new testament that mary becomes the the response
00:42:52.460 to Eve, whereas Eve disobeyed, Mary obeyed. And then we see through that story, obviously she
00:42:59.440 becomes the mother of Christ. She goes on to fulfill all the prophecies of Christ, fulfills
00:43:03.620 the prophecies, obviously, of the Old Testament. And so in that, we see the true relationship
00:43:09.980 that men and women are both needed and both necessary in those roles, in those roles that
00:43:19.400 are set up. And it is a father's role. As my wife always says, the dad leads the household,
00:43:25.840 and the dad's the head of the household, and the mother is the neck, because the neck can turn the
00:43:30.740 head. It's very cute. But the same being that it is a symbiotic relationship in that there can be
00:43:38.660 no one without the other. Without strong mothers, we cannot have society. We won't have the next
00:43:43.660 generation. Without strong grandmothers, we won't have people who are helping us along in those
00:43:49.260 situations where you feel overwhelmed or you feel some kind of postpartum depression or any of those
00:43:55.380 instances where, you know, mommy brain is 100% a real thing. I was just making a joke about that
00:44:00.840 a couple of weeks ago to a friend of mine who just had a kid. And I said, oh, you're all
00:44:04.980 scatterbrained today. I guess you got mommy brain as you left. And I said, but it's all real. It's
00:44:09.360 all real. And there are times where as a dad, you know, even when, you know, we still have little
00:44:14.360 kids. And I know as, as wonderful and amazing as Tanya Tay is, I say, you know what? Sometimes
00:44:19.200 mommy needs a break. And I, I grabbed the kid and say, kids, we're going to Wawa or we're going to
00:44:24.480 the bookstore. And we just, you know, we just kind of hang out for a little bit and mommy gets to
00:44:28.220 take a break. She gets to read a book. It's fine. It's totally fine. It's totally normal, but that
00:44:34.880 doesn't come. That doesn't come at the, the loss of the father being the one who leads the household.
00:44:43.560 And if you don't have that natural relationship in your household, you will have imbalance.
00:44:52.920 You'll have an imbalanced society.
00:44:54.680 I'm not saying that's, you know, obviously the reason for this.
00:44:57.640 It certainly doesn't take away the criminal culpability of what Lindsey Clancy did.
00:45:01.580 But it is an understanding.
00:45:03.300 It is an understanding that when you have a strong father, you have someone who's willing to say no.
00:45:12.080 Simple as that.
00:45:13.560 And like Scott Adams would always say, learn the price of success and then pay it.
00:45:18.400 What is the price of saying no?
00:45:21.160 What are the consequences of that?
00:45:22.800 How valuable is your word?
00:45:25.300 How valuable is the dignity of the situation?
00:45:27.620 Learn the price of success and pay it.
00:45:29.440 And something that we've noticed, Jack, you know who's not on there making these Crime Truth or videos?
00:45:36.360 Happily married mothers.
00:45:38.340 that's who's not on social media coming up with all my experiences and actually the husband did it
00:45:44.940 yeah yeah and and and there are people who have said um you know that there are times when you do
00:45:52.180 even um what's the best way to put this when you have people who have decent takes on this
00:46:01.020 and natural takes on this and realistic takes on this you will always see that there are people who
00:46:06.040 in committed marriages with people who are committed to one another, where they understand
00:46:10.820 that mother is the mother, the father is the father, and you don't try to switch those roles.
00:46:17.520 And this is something that we see, by the way, across Europe. This is something that we see
00:46:20.720 in the United States, something certainly that we talk about in the book, where Fifth Ways Feminism
00:46:25.760 is yet again an attempt for feminists to wrest control of society, of marriage, of families,
00:46:34.560 away from what the natural biblical order is yes and it's the phenomenon we see of many npr
00:46:44.680 americans don't forget the hyphen where they have something like a transgender marriage
00:46:49.080 where the man is the wife uh and the woman is the is the husband which is of course the role
00:46:56.040 reversal in the garden of eden and i think both from a spiritual perspective and a practical
00:47:00.560 perspective, there's a reason why, again, that that is the first story of the Bible. It's the
00:47:08.440 first story of human dysfunction, human famine. It's so critical. Could we even say that simping
00:47:18.520 is a sin? Simping, yes, is a sin. It is putting yourself into a transgender marriage dynamic.
00:47:27.020 so if you've transgendered yourself then then that is spiritual you're spiritually trans if
00:47:34.460 you decide that i'm the woman and it is my job to uh be the wife guy and i'm gonna listen to
00:47:40.240 everything my wife says because happy wife happy life whoa joshua uh that's all the time we have
00:47:46.220 today i think we've caused a little bit of enough just about enough trouble where can people go to
