What happens when the Fourth Turning meets 5th Generation Warfare? A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran, Jack Posobiec, is in place. Can I tell you why those are fallacious and misleading at best?
00:18:16.620I heard I rolled with bloods, and them boys had a saying. You can't be listening to all
00:18:22.900that slappy, whack, trimatazolitzabam ship, nippy-bam-bam, like Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:18:29.120All right, Jack Posobiec here, back live Human Events Daily. Folks, the most important gift

00:20:09.880iTargetPro.com. Folks, Donald Trump, President Trump is in Las Vegas right now. And the question
00:20:17.820is, so he's in Las Vegas. He's got a, you know, I'm looking at some of the shots. He's going to be
00:20:23.100speaking at this restaurant where, you know, he's meeting people and he's going to be doing this
00:20:28.340event. Remember, no tax on tips. That's why he's there. And the question, of course, for us,
00:20:34.640so when President Trump goes, let me explain something to you. So when President Trump goes out
00:20:38.840around the country, when he's holding these events, when he's holding rallies, he stays at
00:20:43.360Trump properties. So Trump Las Vegas, Mar-a-Lago, Bedminster, Trump Tower. Those are the four main
00:20:51.820ones. So when he's going around throughout the country, you can generally, you can generally
00:20:56.980make it known that he's going to be staying at one of his properties. Now, that's for a couple of
00:21:01.100reasons. Number one, obviously branding. He doesn't want to make it seem like he would stay somewhere
00:21:05.800else because why would he? If he's going to his properties, it always creates that moment
00:21:10.540where you realize that, oh, you know, I'm at a Trump property. I might get to see him. We actually
00:21:15.860saw him when we were out in Vegas for one of the events there. And when he had Trump Hotel in
00:21:20.120Washington, D.C. during the administration, many, many times we would be there for meetings or for
00:21:26.960various events that we were holding. And of course, we would see him there all the time for one of those
00:21:33.080triumphant entrances within Trump Hotel in Washington, D.C. But let me tell you something
00:21:38.560else. There's a secondary reason that he, that, so remember, he had the event in Arizona yesterday.
00:21:45.520He has event in Arizona today. Yet he stayed at his property in Las Vegas. Why is that?
00:21:50.740Safety. Safety. Because of safety. He wants to stay in a place that he has total control over.
00:22:00.800Because when something happens, like J-13, when we start to get whistleblowers out who say the
00:22:07.460Secret Service was warning their agents they couldn't even request excess manpower, that they
00:22:15.320couldn't even have extra agents out there for a guy that everyone knows is the number one target.
00:22:22.860Someone who's got every single financial, military, big pharma, all of these institutions that have
00:22:32.940been gunning for him, all of these power centers that have been gunning for him. When he comes up
00:22:37.520there and says he wants peace deals and wants to shut down wars around the world, he wants to shut down
00:22:42.900Ukraine, Russia. He wants to shut down Israel, Gaza. He wants to get peace with North Korea. He was
00:22:48.380working towards peace with North Korea. He wants to bring back the Abraham Accords. No, it's bad for
00:22:54.960business. It's very bad for business. And this is something by the way, this is something by the way
00:23:03.120that RFK and President Trump have in common. RFK has experienced assassinations in his lifetime.
00:23:15.720Two, far more than anyone else hopefully will do, his father and his uncle at a young age. And he spent
00:23:25.100his entire life questioning the narrative, questioning the background, questioning the motives,
00:23:30.940questioning qui bono, who benefits, who benefits from taking out his father and taking out his uncle.
00:23:40.320And we know who benefited. In both cases, it was the military industrial complex. In the case of both
00:23:46.720of them, by the way, the Kennedys, the original Kennedys were always ardent anti-communists. They did
00:23:54.840want to stop communism throughout the world, but they also stood on the side of peace. Remember,
00:24:02.040RFK's father worked for Senator Joseph McCarthy as one of his top investigators on the Senate
00:24:07.440Committee on Investigations, digging through the dirt of the communist infiltrators in our own
00:24:13.440government. Then his brother, JFK, and remember, RFK was the attorney general to his brother.
00:24:20.480Then his brother wanted peace with the Soviet Union, wanted peace deals, didn't want to go to war,
00:24:28.080didn't want to go along with Vietnam, didn't want to go along with all these things.
00:24:32.260And so he was gotten rid of. Can you think of anyone else who would be more well-versed
00:24:40.980and with personal skin in the game to dig the answers on these assassinations, on the true nature
00:24:49.940of the American government, as it has been absolutely corrupted since that day in November in 1963?
00:24:59.540It makes sense, folks. If you want answers on Kennedy, if you want answers on RFK, if you want answers on
00:25:09.860Watergate, if you want answers on Russiagate, if you want answers on J13, this is the path forward.
00:25:19.620This is the way to go. Give him a commission with declassification authority to say,
00:25:26.460Bobby, it's up to you. You get to make the call. You get to make the call if these documents go out
00:25:35.060or not. Why? Because he has the right to. Because who's got more of a right than Bobby Kennedy
00:25:41.120to decide whether or not those files come out? Yes, I'm aware the American people and the public
00:25:47.100have a right. They do. Because it's all of our government. But just think of the poetic justice
00:25:52.880that the son of one of these men who was taken out gets to make the final decision, gets to turn
00:25:59.460the key, gets to push the button. And it gets handed to him by Donald J. Trump. By the way,
00:26:06.980breaking news, AP has a headline out here saying that ahead of his speech, which he'll be speaking
00:26:14.940supposedly in just a few moments, ahead of his speech, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says in a Pennsylvania
00:26:20.900court filing that he will indeed be endorsing President Trump. Digging through here a little
00:26:28.840bit because we know that Arizona, the deadline was actually today whether or not to remain on the
00:26:34.120ballot. We are now hearing that in Pennsylvania, he'll also be dropping out. And it does indeed say
00:26:40.800that endorsement is coming. So this is something where, you know, we had reporting yesterday that
00:26:46.340we weren't sure if this was fully coming. We reporting that we weren't ensure we weren't
00:26:51.480entirely sure or they were entirely sure what it would come down to. We heard some reporting as well
00:26:56.760that his wife, Cheryl Hines, someone who she in her own right is a Hollywood actress, was opposed to
00:27:02.680the idea of a full endorsement. However, his running mate, Nicole Shanahan,
00:27:05.940was saying that it was a fantastic endorsement. And so we are going, by the way, just so you guys
00:27:13.020know, the scenes that you're looking at on the screen right now, that is not live. That is
00:27:16.780pre-recorded just in case there's any confusion. So we are still waiting. And guys, if we have a way
00:27:22.220to get up the picture in picture on the box, let's get the box up so that we can, DC, if you can show
00:27:27.720that so people know that we are still awaiting the arrival of RFK. And if we can blow the break,
00:27:33.980yeah, DC, let's blow the break here because this is live and I don't want to miss any of this. This
00:27:37.940is historic. This is historic. So now we have the reporting from the AP that the endorsement is coming
00:27:43.860through, that he's made a filing saying that he will be supporting President Trump. We've also got the
00:27:49.700reporting that we told you all the way back. I believe, as far as I know, the Human Events Daily
00:27:54.640was the first place to, or any platform or anyone announced that there would be surprises. We had Tyler
00:28:01.200Boyer on, on Tuesday. And Tyler told us that, and remember, he's the host of the Trump rally later
00:28:07.980tonight. Tyler said there will be surprises on Friday. So that means that Tyler knew that this
00:28:17.180was in the works. And most likely ago, again, with the security posture, the way it is, you can never,
00:28:24.080you can't just bring this stuff up at the last minute. This stuff needs to be worked out. And of
00:28:27.940course, he now has a security detail as well. RFK does. And so they would need to liaise with
00:28:33.380President Trump's security detail with the Secret Service. But of course, look, I know what it's like
00:28:41.480when you're out there and day to day you, you say, well, hold on a second. The agents I work with
00:28:47.400every day, they're great. They're fine. They're good people. And many of them, of course, obviously,
00:28:51.780all of them protected his life that day. They were willing to stand in front of President Trump
00:28:56.840when the bullets were coming down, when people weren't sure how many shooters there were. I get
00:29:01.140all that. Okay, I get all that. But there is something rotten at the core of the Secret Service.
00:29:08.480And there is something rotten at the core of our government. And there's a rot that has been there
00:29:14.920for a long time. There is an absolute rot at the core of all of this.
00:29:20.940And we are never going to get answers if we do not push. We are never going to get the full
00:29:28.840answers. We're never going to get to the bottom if you don't push for it. This requires human action
00:29:34.100and human agency. So when I say push, I'm talking about the fact that you must push in states like
00:29:40.680Arizona, states like Georgia, states like Pennsylvania, states like North Carolina, Wisconsin,
00:29:47.780Michigan, you have to push for victory. You have to fight for truth. That's what this election is
00:29:56.200about. The truth about our country, the truth about what's going on in our nation. That's what we're
00:30:03.520fighting for. That's what Trump meant when he said, fight, fight, fight. Do you think our nation is in
00:30:10.220decline because of incompetence? Do you think that the shadow elite have done all of these things,
00:30:16.600hollowed out the middle class, hollowed out middle America, hollowed out the return to the steel belt
00:30:21.720into the rust belt? You think they're doing all this just by accident? You think they're launching
00:30:26.380all these wars and these spying operations, assassination plots, lies all over the world,
00:30:32.680lies on mainstream media? You think it's all happening by accident? You think it's all happening just
00:30:37.660you think it's all happening just because somebody didn't oops, an error, a mistake, a glitch? Well,
00:30:44.120let me ask you something. Why is it that all the glitches go in the same direction? Why do all the
00:30:49.260mistakes go in the same direction? The loss of American liberty, the loss of American freedom,
00:30:55.320and the increase in power and wealth for the elites. Do you want your children to go to war? Right now,
00:31:01.420there's two, there are two aircraft carrier groups, aircraft carrier battle groups in the Middle East.
00:31:08.740There's an amphibious group in the Middle East. There is enough war power in the Middle East right
00:31:15.420now. Destroyers all over the place. And every time you see an aircraft carrier battle group,
00:31:20.340you know, the subs are close by. And I'm saying that as a prior Navy officer,
00:31:24.380they are preparing for war. They're preparing to press the button. They're agitating as much as
00:31:35.880possible. So do you want your children to go to war? Do you want your children to be coerced into
00:31:43.160sexual anarchy? That's what Josh Shapiro was talking about. And he said, they're banning books.
00:31:48.060They're banning books. There's a little cracked voice. We're talking about banning pornography.
00:31:54.380That's what we're banning for children. They say, oh, you want to ban books? Well,
00:31:58.460how about the Holy Bible? Head tip to Michael Knowles on that one. You guys are the ones who
00:32:02.880started banning books when you took the Bible out of schools and you put child pornography in them.
00:32:09.740That's who we're up against, ladies and gentlemen. And that's not political. That's not left or right.
00:32:15.720That's good versus evil. That's angels versus demons at that point. I don't know
00:32:23.100how all of this is going to end. I don't, but I'll tell you something. I am not going to lay
00:32:30.380out. I'm not going to sit back and say, oh, whoops, you got us this time. Sorry. I'll just be a good
00:32:37.300little boy and I'll go down on my knees. No, I'm sorry. That's not the fighting spirit of the United
00:32:41.580States of America. That's not the fighting spirit of the American people. We want truth. We demand
00:32:47.100truth. We deserve truth and we will take truth back. We will take it back. No more lies, no more
00:32:54.500gaslighting, none of this. No, we are going to take truth back. And I will tell you something.
00:32:59.800The path to truth lies through November 5th. It lies through November 5th and the understanding
00:33:08.400that we must pass through the crucible. You must pass through. There's no way around it.
00:33:15.580There's no dilly dally. There's no, there's no, oh, I'm going to go off on the, uh, you know,
00:33:20.760the shortcut and the beaten path. And this way is much more sunny. And this way is Rosie. No,
00:33:24.920let me tell you something about the crucible. When the crucible hits, it's going to come at you from
00:33:31.620ways you never expected. It is going to be a path that is walked by the few. It is going to be a path
00:33:38.480that has no mercy, a path that will challenge you. That is a risk. And we've seen it folks.
00:33:47.780How many people, Steve Bannon is in jail right now. Steve Bannon is behind bars as we speak.
00:33:54.260I've got to go to a department of justice, uh, you know, Merrick Garland looking over my shoulder.
00:34:00.140Every time I send him a message, email system, and I can only get a couple of messages in and out
00:34:05.240every day. If I want to talk to Steve, that's the path we're on right now. Praying grandmothers locked
00:34:12.640up, American Patriots locked up, firefighters like Cora Compatori shot dead, their bodies blown apart
00:34:23.820while they try to hold on for dear life and save his love, beloved wife and daughter.
00:34:32.540That's the path we're on right now. So you got to harden yourself, folks. You got to harden yourself
00:34:38.300up. And these Republicans in DC, look, I've been calling on them, put the save act out there. And
00:34:43.280we are going to continue to do that. By the way, we will shut down the federal government. If Speaker
00:34:48.320Johnson does not put the save act in on the next spending bill for the jet for September 30th,
00:34:54.540they think that, Oh, we could just go along to get along. We can just play these little games. No,
00:35:01.160no illegal will be allowed to vote within the confines of the United States. And any illegal
00:35:06.120who does will be subject to immediate deportation front of the line. You get put right up there with
00:35:11.720the traffickers. You get right up, up there with the cartel leaders. You get right up there with all
00:35:17.000of them. No front of the line. You're all going back and you are definitely going back first.
00:35:23.160The only child, the only ones, by the way, that are not going back are the child sex traffickers
00:35:29.020because the child sex traffickers, we've got another option for them. Oh, we've got a very
00:35:34.220special option for the child sex traffickers. Don't worry. You will not be subject to deportation.
00:35:39.820I guarantee you. Are you worried about being deported? Well, you don't have to worry.
00:35:42.620We're not going to be deporting you guys at all. We've got a very special plan involved for you.
00:35:48.780And I'm so sorry to Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor and all these people who say,
00:35:54.740Oh, they just didn't know better. Oh, oh, we're so sorry. No, no. You lay one finger on these children,
00:36:02.140on God's children, then there will be a price to pay. There will be a price to pay. And I'm not
00:36:13.040talking about deportation and I'm not talking about being put up three hots and a cot in one
00:36:17.880of these prison cells. No, there will be a price to pay and it will be paid very swiftly for all of
00:36:24.260you. Folks, do you want a future for your children where you raise them to work hard for the facade of
00:36:31.300the American dream? How many times have we had to say this? Oh, you just work hard. You work hard.
00:36:35.600This is why Gen Z, by the way, Gen Z is totally fed up with this stuff because Gen Z is sitting
00:36:40.000there saying, what's in it for me? This is all a lie. So why should I work hard? They're checked out.
00:36:44.820They're totally checked out because they can see themselves being forced into indentured servitude.
00:36:50.020They can see themselves on the pathway to slavery. You want to pay for the vices of the left
00:36:56.200through government subsidies and handouts? No. No, we're all saying no more. No more. No more for
00:37:03.900any of it. The American government does not exist to right the ills of the world. The American
00:37:11.340government exists for the protection, the safety, and the pleasure of the American people. What do I
00:37:19.140mean by that? I mean that if the pleasure of the American people is not met, then the American
00:37:25.580government will be rendered asunder and we will place the entire regime under new management after
00:37:33.880we root them all out. And let me just say for Donald Trump, who knows a thing or two about
00:37:39.780construction, what's the first phase of construction? The very first phase. I know I'm not talking about
00:37:45.120the architecture. I'm not talking about the planning. I'm talking about when the shovel hits
00:37:50.100the steel. The first phase, demolition. You demolish what is there and then you can rebuild
00:37:59.280anew. So we're still in that demolition phase, boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen. Send us your
00:38:05.160comments. Send us your email. 1776 at humanevents.com. 1776 at humanevents.com. This is a regime that is going to
00:38:16.340fight back. You heard the cheers yesterday, the support killing babies. They're handing out,
00:38:24.260they're handing out the plan B pill like it's, like it's gummy bears, like it's gumballs. They joke
00:38:29.960about it. Say, oh, I'm going to have an abortion on stage. That's one of the abortions demons said to
00:38:34.220me. It's a joke to her. She thinks it's hilarious. She thinks it's funny. Folks, that's the sound of
00:38:41.700Satan marching his hooves through the country that we built, the country that our ancestors built.
00:38:49.700And it was not built for evil. It was not built for this insanity.
00:38:53.400So if you think that you can just walk up there, and by the way, I applaud President Trump for saying
00:38:59.820what he said the other day about, oh, just stick to policy. Just stick to policy. Just stick to
00:39:05.080policy. Really? You're going to stick to policy when all this is going, when there's a week of
00:39:09.020personal attacks, when there's a week of championing war across the world. That's what, and make no
00:39:14.800mistake, Kinzinger and Panetta and all the guys they had up last night, that's what they were talking
00:39:19.460about. The expansion of the war powers, the expansion of all of it. I'm told that we have,
00:39:25.800I'm told that we have Darren Beattie calling in now. Darren, how are you, my friend?
00:39:31.540Doing great. Doing great. Good to be here. So we're, we're sort of playing this, the waiting game
00:39:37.480here for RFK, but we are also told the breaking news is that he does, according to a filing out of
00:39:45.220Pennsylvania, that he does intend to endorse President Trump. Either, either, I expect he
00:39:50.440won't endorse now. He's probably going to drop out with his speech. I expect that he'll be endorsing
00:39:54.340later at the rally this evening in Phoenix with, with Charlie Kirk, Tyler Boyer in Turning Point
00:40:00.660Action. Darren, tell us, how does this shape the contours, shake up the contours of this race
00:40:06.720and change it to a new, a new angle? And we've been talking about how it's now the outsiders
00:40:12.380versus the insiders. Yeah, absolutely. Well, actually, I'm just learning about this imminent
00:40:18.660endorsement. Oh, Darren, I'm so sorry. We're, we're actually getting word that, we're actually
00:40:23.840getting word that RFK is taking the stage right now. I began this journey as a Democrat, the party,
00:40:29.760my father, my uncle, the party which I pledged my own allegiance to long before I was old enough to
00:40:37.540vote. I attended my first Democratic convention at the age of six in 1960. And back then, the Democrats
00:40:48.080were the champions of the constitution of civil rights. The Democrats stood against authoritarianism,
00:40:56.820against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars. We were the party of labor,
00:41:06.620modern of the working class. The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion
00:41:14.400of the environment. Our party was the bulwark against big money interests and corporate power.
00:41:21.960True to its name, it was the party of democracy. As you know, I left that party in October because
00:41:28.440it had departed so dramatically from the core values that I grew up with. It had become the party of
00:41:36.540war, censorship, corruption, big pharma, big tech, big ag, and big money. When it abandoned democracy by
00:41:48.460canceling the primary to conceal the cognitive decline of the sitting president, I left the party
00:41:56.320to run as an independent. The mainstream of American politics and journalism derided my decision.
00:42:04.640Conventional wisdom said that it would be impossible even to get on the ballot as an independent because
00:42:10.880each state poses an insurmountable tangle of arbitrary rules for collecting signatures.
00:42:18.000I would need over a million signatures, something no presidential candidate in history had ever achieved.
00:42:24.640And then I'd need a team of attorneys and millions of dollars to handle all the legal challenges from the DNC.
00:42:34.640The naysayers told us that we were climbing a glass version of Mount Impossible.
00:42:40.880So the first thing I want to tell you is that we proved them wrong. We did it because beneath the radar of
00:42:48.880mainstream media organs, we inspired a massive independent political movement. More than 100,000 volunteers
00:42:56.880sprang into action, hopeful that they could reverse our nation's decline. Many worked 10-hour days, sometimes
00:43:04.880with the blizzards and blazing heat. They sacrificed family time, personal commitments and sleep month after month,
00:43:12.880energized by a shared vision of a nation healed of its divisions. They set up tables at churches and farmers markets.
00:43:22.880They canvassed door-to-door. In Utah and in New Hampshire, volunteers collected signatures in snowstorms, convincing
00:43:32.880each supporter to stop in the frigid cold, to take off their gloves, and to sign legibly.
00:43:38.880During a heat wave in Nevada, I met a tall athletic volunteer who cheerfully told me that he had lost 25
00:43:46.880pounds collecting signatures in 117-degree heat. To finance this effort, young Americans donated their lunch money,
00:43:56.880and senior citizens gave up part of their Social Security checks. Our 50-state organization collected those
00:44:05.880millions of signatures and more. No presidential campaign in American political history has ever done that.
00:44:12.880And so I want to thank all of those dedicated volunteers and congratulate the campaign staff who
00:44:21.880coordinated this enormous logistical feat. Your accomplishments were regarded as impossible.
00:44:30.880You carried me up that glass mountain. You pulled off a miracle. You achieved what all the pundits said
00:44:37.880could never be done. You had my deepest gratitude, and I'm never going to forget that. Not just for what you did
00:44:44.880for my campaign, but for the sacrifices you made because you love our country. You showed everyone that democracy
00:44:54.880is still possible here. It continues to survive in the press and in the idealistic human energies that still thrive beneath the canvas of neglect and
00:45:06.880of official and institutional corruption. Today I'm here to tell you that I will not allow your efforts to go to waste.
00:45:16.880I'm here to tell you that I will leverage your tremendous accomplishments to serve the ideals that we share, the ideals of peace, of prosperity, of freedom, of health, all the ideals that motivated my campaign.
00:45:33.880I'm here today to describe the path forward that you have opened with your commitment and with your hard labors.
00:45:40.880Now, in an honest system, I believe that I would have won the election. In a system that my father and my uncles thrived in, a system with open debates, with fair primaries, with regularly scheduled debates, with fair primaries, with
00:46:01.880a truly independent media untainted by government propaganda and censorship. In a system of non-partisan courts and election boards, everything would be different. After all, the polls consistently showed me beating each of the other candidates, both in favorability and also in head-to-head matchups.
00:46:24.880I'm sorry to say that while democracy may still be alive at the grassroots, it has become little more than a slogan for our political institutions, for our media, and for our government, and most sadly at all for me, the Democratic Party.
00:46:43.880In the name of saving democracy, the Democratic Party set itself to dismantling it, lacking confidence in its candidate, that its candidate could win in a fair election at the voting booth.
00:46:50.880The DNC waged continual legal warfare against both President Trump and myself. Each time that our volunteers turned in those towering boxes of signatures needed to get on the ballot,
00:47:17.880those towering boxes of signatures needed to get on the ballot, the DNC dragged us into
00:47:24.100court state after state, attempting to erase their work and to subvert the will of the
00:47:30.820voters who had signed those petitions.
00:47:33.840It deployed DNC-aligned judges to throw me and other candidates off the ballot and to
00:57:33.020I want everyone to know that I am not terminating my campaign. I am simply suspending it and not ending it.
00:57:46.460My name will remain on the ballot in most states. If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me
00:57:55.980without harming or helping President Trump or Vice President Harris. In red states, the same will apply.
00:58:04.620I encourage you to vote for me. And if enough of you do vote for me, and neither of the major party
00:58:11.660candidates win 270 votes, which is quite possible. In fact, today our polling shows them tying at 269 to 269.
00:58:22.300And I could conceivably still end up in the White House in a contingent election.
00:58:28.460But in about 10 battleground states where my presence would be a spoiler, I'm going to remove my name.
00:58:38.060And I've already started that process and urge voters not to vote for me. It's with a sense of victory
00:58:45.900and not defeat that I'm suspending my campaign activities. Not only did we do the impossible by
00:58:52.940collecting a million signatures, we changed the national political conversation forever.
00:58:59.420Chronic disease, free speech, government corruption, breaking our addiction to war,
00:59:05.180have moved to the center of politics. I can say to all who have worked so hard,
00:59:10.940the last year and a half, thank you for a job well done. Three great causes drove me to antithesis
00:59:19.180race in the first place primarily. And these are the principal causes that persuaded me to leave the
00:59:25.100democratic party and run as an independent. And now to throw my support to President Trump.
00:59:36.620The causes were free speech, a war in Ukraine and the war on our children.
00:59:44.300I've already described some of my personal experiences and struggles with a government
00:59:49.820censorship industrial complex. I want to say a word about the Ukraine war. The military industrial
00:59:56.700complex has provided us with a familiar comic book justification like they do on every war.
01:00:04.780At this one is a noble effort to stop a supervillain Vladimir Putin invading the Ukraine and then to
01:00:12.460thwart his Hitler-like march across Europe. In fact, tiny Ukraine is a proxy in a geopolitical
01:00:19.500struggle initiated by the ambitions of the U.S. neocons for American global hegemony.
01:00:29.340I'm not excusing Putin for invading Ukraine. He had other options. But the war is Russia's predictable
01:00:37.740response to the reckless neocon project of extending NATO to encircle Russia, a hostile act.
01:00:44.780The credulous media rarely explained to Americans that we unilaterally walked away from two intermediate
01:00:52.540nuclear weapons treaties with Russia and then put nuclear ready Aegis missile systems in Romania and
01:00:59.900Poland. This is a hostile, hostile act. And that the Biden White House repeatedly spurned Russia's offer to
01:01:11.980settle this war peacefully. The Ukraine war began in 2014 when U.S. agencies overthrew the democratically
01:01:20.060elected government of Ukraine and installed a hand-picked pro-Western government that launched
01:01:27.100a deadly civil war against ethnic Russians in Ukraine. In 2019, America walked away from a peace treaty, the
01:01:35.500Minsk agreement that had been negotiated between Russia and Ukraine by European nations. And then in
01:01:43.260April of 2022, we wanted the war. In April of 2022, President Biden sent Boris Johnson to Ukraine to force
01:01:53.500President Zelensky to tear up a peace agreement that he and the Russians had already signed and the Russians were
01:01:59.100withdrawing troops from Kiev and Donbass and Lugans. And that peace agreement would have brought peace to
01:02:08.540the region and would have allowed Donbass and Lugans to remain part of Ukraine. President Biden stated that
01:02:15.100month that his objective in the war was regime change in Russia. His defense secretary Lloyd Austin
01:02:23.180simultaneously explained that America's purpose in the war was to exhaust the Russian army to degrade its
01:02:30.540capacity to fight anywhere else in the world. These objectives, of course, have nothing to do with
01:02:37.260what they were telling Americans about protecting Ukraine's sovereignty. Ukraine is a victim in this war and
01:02:44.540it's a victim of the West. Since then, we have since tearing up that agreement, forcing Zelensky to tear up the
01:02:57.260agreement. We've squandered the flower of Ukrainian youth, as many as 600,000 Ukrainian kids and over 100,000
01:03:07.820Russian kids, none of whom, all of whom we should be mourning, have died and the Ukraine's infrastructure
01:03:16.060is destroyed. The war has been a disaster for our country as well. We squandered nearly 200 billion
01:03:22.700dollars already and these are badly needed dollars in our communities, suffering communities all over our
01:03:30.060country. The Nord Stream pipeline sabotage and the sanctions have destroyed Europe's industrial
01:03:37.740base which formed the bulwark of U.S. national security. A strong Germany with a strong industry is a
01:03:44.380much, much stronger deterrent to Russia and a Germany that is de-industrialized and turned into just an
01:03:54.460extension of U.S. military base. We've pushed Russia into a disastrous alliance with China and Iran
01:04:02.300and we're closer to the brink of nuclear exchange than at any time since 1962 and the neocons and the
01:04:10.860White House don't seem to care at all. Our moral authority and our economy are in shambles and the
01:04:17.820war gave rise to the emergence of BRICS which now threatens to replace the dollar as the global reserve
01:04:24.060currency. This is a first-class calamity for our country. Judging by her bellicose belligerent
01:04:32.700speech last night in Chicago, we can assume that President Harris will be an enthusiastic advocate for
01:04:40.380this and other neocon military adventures and President Trump says that he will reopen negotiations with
01:04:49.340President Putin and end the war overnight as soon as he becomes president. This alone would justify my
01:04:57.580support for his campaign. Last summer it looked like no candidate was willing to negotiate a quick
01:05:04.700end to the Ukraine war, to tackle chronic disease epidemic, to protect free speech, our constitutional
01:05:12.460freedoms, to clean corporate influence out of our government, or to defy the neocons and their agenda of
01:05:18.540endless military adventurism. But now one of the two candidates has adopted these issues as his own
01:05:26.940to the point where he has asked to enlist me in his administration. I'm speaking of course of Donald Trump.
01:05:36.380Less than two hours after President Trump narrowly escaped assassination,
01:05:42.060Ali Means called me on my cell phone. I was then in Las Vegas. Ali is arguably the leading advocate for food
01:05:50.540safety, for soil regeneration, and for ending the chronic disease epidemic that is destroying America's
01:05:58.060health and ruining our economy. Ali has exposed the insidious corruption at the FDA, the NIH, the HHS,
01:06:06.380and the USDA that has caused the epidemic. Ali had been working on and off for my campaign advising me on those
01:06:15.980subjects since the beginning. And those subjects have been my primary focus for the last 20 years.
01:06:23.740I was delighted when Kelly told me that day that he had also been advising President Trump.
01:06:29.340He told me President Trump was anxious to talk to me about chronic disease and other subjects and to explore
01:06:38.380avenues of cooperation. He asked if I would take a call from the President. President Trump telephoned me
01:06:45.900a few minutes later and I met with him the following day. A few weeks later I met again with President
01:06:53.900Trump and his family members and close advisors in Florida. In a series of long, intense discussions,
01:07:01.660I was surprised to discover that we are aligned on many key issues. In those meetings he suggested that
01:07:09.740we join forces as a unity party. We talked about Abraham Lincoln's team of rivals. That arrangement would
01:07:18.540allow us to disagree publicly and privately and fiercely if need be on issues over which we differ while
01:07:27.900working together on the existential issues upon which we are in concordance. I was a ferocious critic
01:07:37.180of many of the policies during his first administration and there are still issues and approaches
01:07:43.260upon which we continue to have very serious differences. We are aligned with each other on other key issues
01:07:54.780like ending the forever wars, ending the childhood disease epidemic, securing the border, protecting freedom of
01:08:02.860speech, unraveling the corporate capture of our regulatory agencies, getting the U.S. intelligence agencies out of the
01:08:11.740business of propagandizing and censoring and surveilling Americans and interfering with our elections.
01:08:20.460Following my first discussion with President Trump, I tried unsuccessfully to open similar discussions with
01:08:28.540Vice President Harris. Vice President Harris declined to meet or even to speak with me. Suspending my candidacy
01:08:37.580is a hard-rending decision for me but I'm convinced that it's the best hope for ending the Ukraine war and
01:08:44.700ending the chronic disease epidemic that is eroding our nation's vitality from the inside and for finally
01:08:52.060protecting free speech. I feel a moral obligation to use this opportunity to save millions of American
01:09:00.140children above all things. In case some of you don't realize how dire the condition is of our children's health and
01:09:08.220chronic disease in general, I would urge you to view Dr. Carlson's recent interview with Kelly Means and his
01:09:16.940sister Dr. Casey Means, who is the top graduate of her class at Stanford Medical School. This is an issue that affects all of us far more directly and urgently than any culture war issue.
01:09:28.860And all the other issues that we obsess on and that are tearing apart our country. This is the most
01:09:36.460important issue. Therefore, it has the potential to bring us together. So let me share a little bit about
01:09:44.540why I believe it's so urgent. Today, two-thirds, we pay, we spend more on health care than any country on
01:09:51.980earth twice what they pay in Europe. And yet we have the worst health outcomes of any nation in the world.
01:09:59.180We're about 79th in health outcomes behind Costa Rica and Nicaragua and Mongolia and other countries.
01:10:08.060Nobody has a chronic disease burden like we have. And during the COVID epidemic, we had the highest body
01:10:15.500count of any country in the world. We had 16% of the COVID deaths and we only have 4.2% of the world's
01:10:22.620population. And CDC says that's because we are the sickest people on earth. We have the highest chronic
01:10:28.940disease rate on earth. And the average American who died of COVID had 3.8 chronic diseases. So these were
01:10:37.820people who had immune system collapse, who had mitochondrial dysfunction, and no other country has
01:10:45.020anything like this. Two-thirds of American adults and children suffer from chronic health issues.
01:10:52.62050 years ago, that number was less than 1%. So we've gone from 1% to 66%.
01:11:02.940In America, 74% of Americans are now overweight or obese. And 50% of our children, 120 years ago,
01:11:14.060when somebody was obese, they were sent to the circus. There were literally case reports done about
01:11:21.020them. Obesity was almost unknown. In Japan, the childhood obesity rate is 3% compared to 50% a year.
01:11:30.380Half of Americans have pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes. When my uncle was president and I was a boy,
01:11:38.460juvenile diabetes was effectively non-existent. A typical pediatrician would see one case of
01:11:44.620diabetes during his entire career, a 40- or 50-year career. Today, one out of every three kids who walks
01:11:51.580through his office door is diabetic or pre-diabetic. And the mitochondrial disorder
01:11:56.380had caused diabetes also causing Alzheimer's, which is now classified as diabetes.
01:12:06.220And it's costing this country more than our military budget every year.
01:12:10.300There's been an explosion of neurological illnesses that I never saw as a kid. ADD, ADHD, speech delay,
01:12:17.500language delay, Tourette's syndrome, archilepsy, ASD, Asperger's, autism. In the year 2000,
01:12:26.380the autism rate was 1 in 1500. Now, autism rates in kids are 1 in 36, according to CDC nationally.
01:12:35.420Nobody's talking about this. One in every 22 kids in California has autism. And this is a crisis that
01:12:45.18077% of our kids are too disabled to serve in the United States military.
01:12:53.500What is happening to our country? And why isn't this in the headlines every single day?
01:12:59.820There's nobody else in the world that is experiencing this. This is only happening in America.
01:13:05.260About 18%. And by the way, you know, there has been no change in diagnosis, which the industry
01:13:15.980sometimes like to say, there has been no change in screening. This is a change in incidence. In my
01:13:23.180generation, 70 year old men, the autism rates are about 1 in 10,000. In my kids' generation, 1 in 34.
01:13:35.260I'll repeat, in California, 1 in 22. Why are we letting this happen? Why are we allowing this to
01:13:42.380happen to our children? These are the most precious assets that we have in this country.
01:13:48.620How can we let this happen to them? About 18% of American teens now have fatty liver disease.
01:13:56.300That's like one out of every five. That disease, when I was a kid, only affected late stage alcoholics
01:14:04.060who were elderly. Cancer rates are skyrocketing in the young and the old. Young adult cancers are up
01:14:11.100to 79%. One in four American women is on antidepressant medication. 40% of teens have a mental health
01:14:21.100diagnosis. And 15% of high schoolers are on Adderall and half a million children on SSRIs.
01:14:29.900So what's causing this suffering? I'll name two culprits. The first, and the worst, is ultra-processed food.
01:14:39.020About 70% of American children's diet is ultra-processed. That means industrial manufactured
01:14:45.020in a factory. These foods consist primarily of processed sugar, ultra-processed grains,
01:14:53.660and seed oils. Laboratory scientists, who many of them formerly worked for the cigarette industry,
01:15:01.100which purchased all the big food companies in the 1970s and 80s, deployed thousands of scientists to
01:15:08.860figure out chemicals, new chemicals to make the food more addictive. And these ingredients didn't
01:15:15.740exist 100 years ago. Today, humans aren't biologically adapted to eat them. Hundreds of these chemicals are
01:15:24.140now banned in Europe, but ubiquitous in American processed foods. The second culprit is toxic chemicals in
