00:02:04.740 Mike Davis here, Article 3 Project, to get his response to the Supreme Court. Mike, how are you?
00:02:12.200 Yeah, thank you, Jack. This is an egregiously wrong, lawless ruling by the Supreme Court.
00:02:19.400 We've gone on your show and talked about this. We knew this was coming. I was surprised it was as broad and as bad as it was because Chief Justice John Roberts, along with Amy Coney Barrett, who auditioned as the next Scalia, along with the three liberal justices, held that illegal aliens, including Chinese birth tourists, get birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment.
00:02:47.180 This is the greatest betrayal imaginable of the American citizen's sovereignty, our most crucial sovereign power to decide who comes and goes and who becomes one of us.
00:03:01.160 And I remember when Amy Coney Barrett was going through the process as a former law clerk to Justice Scalia, Amy Coney Barrett, along with her allies, her students, her friends, her allies, sold her as the next Scalia, a constitutionalist, a textualist, an originalist.
00:03:22.240 That's how she auditioned for the job.
00:03:25.220 And that's certainly not what we have seen out of her, particularly today, because no textualist, no originalist, no constitutionalist could read the birthright and citizenship provision in the 14th Amendment, which was enacted to overturn the Supreme Court's Dred Scott decision.
00:03:46.120 This decision that said that the children of the freed slaves are not American citizens. That's why we have this birthright citizenship provision. No one can read the birthright citizenship provision and say that it applies to Chinese birth tourists or other illegal aliens.
00:04:04.580 This is the gravest violation of our most crucial sovereign power as we, the people, the sovereign citizens of America to decide who becomes one of us.
00:04:17.540 This is lawless.
00:04:19.200 This is about vanity and not our country.
00:04:23.380 They put these justices, put their vanity above our country, above our sovereignty, above our national security.
00:04:31.300 and it's it's obvious a national security threat there's no question to this here now you know and
00:04:38.740 you're a better lawyer uh and an actual lawyer so uh than myself so one of the things that i've been
00:04:45.700 kind of pointing to and i've had a few folks uh bring this up as well president mentioned it this
00:04:50.900 kavanaugh concurrence i know if you've dug into it as much yet but he's talking about there might
00:04:55.940 be a way here where rather than having to go through a full constitutional amendment
00:05:01.140 process, that if Congress simply enacts legislation saying, hey, these are exemptions to what
00:05:08.980 the, you know, in the Immigration Act to what the 14th Amendment might say, that basically
00:05:18.980 he would be able to sign off on that and he would be able to sign off because he's saying
00:05:23.360 it's a difference between an act and an EO. Do you think that's what Kavanaugh was saying there?
00:05:27.700 Well, this is a concurring opinion. Remember, it was 5-1-3. You have the five justices,
00:05:33.560 the chief justice, Amy Coney Barrett, and the three liberals in the five. Justice Kavanaugh
00:05:39.240 wrote his concurring opinion in one. And then Thomas Alito Gorsuch, my former boss, were in
00:05:45.060 the three. Justice Kavanaugh's opinion is just a concurring opinion. He's concurring in the
00:05:52.640 judgments that the five justices have already ruled under the 14th amendment to the constitution
00:05:58.720 that chinese birth tourists and other illegals now have birthright citizenship you can't
00:06:04.420 overturn that with a statute that requires a constitutional amendment or a re-evaluation of 0.88
00:06:13.360 this by future supreme court justices like they've done with the road this is this is the problem as
00:06:18.940 As one of my lawyer friends told me today, Chief Justice John Roberts thought he was writing Brown v. Board of Education, this monumental opinion for the Times, when in fact he just wrote the next Roe v. Wade, this lawless abomination of an opinion where he has constitutionalized birthright citizenship for Chinese birth tourists, trend de Aragua, MS-13, terrorists, human traffickers, and other illegals.
00:06:45.820 this would be foreign to the proponents of the 14th Amendment and the American people when this
00:06:53.320 was ratified. The main sponsor of the 14th Amendment made it very clear this did not
00:06:58.260 apply to illegal aliens. And they just ignored this. There are two parts to the birthright
00:07:04.660 citizenship provision. You need to be born here in America and number two, subject to the 0.71
00:07:10.400 jurisdiction, which means allegiance to the United States. The Supreme Court just scratched
00:07:15.920 out that second half and has given away birthright citizenship to everyone who steps foot in America
00:07:22.680 and gives birth. I ask this dispositive question, as we've said on your show,
00:07:27.820 to John Roberts and to Amy Coney Barrett. The 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship
00:07:33.740 provision did not apply to American Indians because they were not subject to the jurisdiction
00:07:38.540 of the united states they were subject to the jurisdiction of their tribes so if the 14th
00:07:43.760 amendment doesn't apply to american indians how the hell does it apply to illegal aliens including 0.95
00:07:50.080 chinese birth tourists it simply does not this was just lawlessness and vanity and destruction
00:07:59.040 of our sovereignty out of the supreme courts today let me you know let me let me switch gears 0.84
00:08:06.260 here for a second because we saw that thing out of NPR saying that Alito might retire earlier
00:08:13.980 today. Obviously, it was fake news. Neil Totenberg has apologized for that. But is there any
00:08:20.120 indication, because I know this has come up a couple of times, any indication that Roberts
00:08:24.100 himself might be looking to leave the court anytime soon? Oh, it would be the greatest gift
00:08:29.480 to our country if he did. What he did today was an absolute disgrace and betrayal of first
00:08:36.780 principles of a democracy, where we are the sovereign American citizens. We are not subjects.
00:08:44.140 We have the sovereign power. It's completely opposite of Great Britain from which we escaped,
00:08:49.380 where sovereignty rests with the king or queen, from God to the sovereign king or queen. And then
00:08:55.400 we get sovereign crumbs as subjects through documents like the Magna Carta to placate us.
00:09:01.420 This got flipped on its head, where sovereignty now goes to the sovereign Supreme Court of the
00:09:06.640 United States, where they get to make sovereign decisions on behalf of the American people.
00:09:12.860 John Roberts is now a king, and he has the king's court called the Supreme Court.
00:09:19.260 I mean, this is this is you can this is one of the worst decisions in American history, right up there with Red Scott, which the birthright citizenship provision was enacted to overturn.
00:09:36.240 We are going to see one of those decisions, but but Mike, right before we leave, we're about to be out of time.
00:09:41.960 One thing I've been telling everyone is this doesn't mean it's over.
00:09:46.520 Can you speak to that real quick?
00:09:47.480 no i hear i look i hear you jack we cannot get blackpilled we will if we get overrun by these 0.94
00:09:54.800 illegal aliens and they have citizenship they are going to destroy our country we need to stand up 0.97
00:10:00.400 and fight we need to make sure the trump administration is expelling all illegal aliens 1.00
00:10:06.460 particularly women who can have kids get them the hell out of our country if you have birthright 0.99
00:10:11.920 citizen get for kids get rid of their parents and they'll follow them simple as that go give
00:10:16.380 mike davis follow over the article three project ladies and gentlemen as always you have my
00:10:21.260 permission to lay a short where is jack where is jack i want to see you great job jack thank you
00:10:41.620 what a job you do you know we have an incredible thing we're always talking about the fake news
00:10:46.220 in the bed, but we have guys, and these are the guys who should be getting policies.
00:10:53.640 All right, folks, Jack Posobiec, we are back here, Human Events Daily, live on Real America's
00:10:57.920 Voice. And folks, America this Saturday hits 250 years old. Yes, we are fighting for its soul right
00:11:04.020 now, culture, economy, who gets your dollar? That's the battle. Most wireless companies don't
00:11:08.500 care what you stand for. They just want your cash. Patriot Mobile is different. For more than 12
00:11:12.820 years they've stood with americans like us backing the christian conservative movement when everyone
00:11:17.040 else stayed silent or worse and here's the deal you don't have to give up quality or service when
00:11:21.660 you switch to patriot mobile they deliver premium priority access on all three major u.s networks
00:11:26.800 so you'll get the same coverage or better than you have today think switching is a hassle it isn't

00:11:36.720 you in minutes still paying off a device patriot mobile even offers a contract buyout this is a
00:11:42.140 defining year. We're in a fight for America's soul. We must work together to save our country.

00:11:52.500 month of service. That's patriotmobile.com slash POSO or call 972-PATRIOT and make the switch
00:11:58.780 today. All right. We're very clear about something. All right. We didn't get the decision that we
00:12:04.580 wanted out of the Supreme Court today. But that still does not justify blackpilling. I want no
00:12:12.560 blackpilling over the Supreme Court decision. None. Zero. There will be none. Absolutely not.
00:12:20.120 You get out there and you keep working and you keep fighting. Nothing is over until we say it
00:12:26.360 is over. I want to bring on now my favorite anti-communist Evita Duffy joins us here on
00:12:32.480 the program evita how are you good jack thanks for having me well evita what do you think then
00:12:38.420 so i mean we get this we get this court decision should we just give up should we just quit should
00:12:42.960 we just stop fighting because it's hard or like because i i look out there and i see all this
00:12:46.740 blackpilling all of a sudden go on i'm like i'm not about that i never have been well jack i'm
00:12:52.340 gonna be honest with you i when i saw the decision this morning even though we all kind of suspected
00:12:55.600 it was coming i was blackpilling as well um it's unfortunate but there are other ways i think that
00:13:02.060 we can try to preserve our country. And there's been some suggestions floating around online.
00:13:06.400 Somebody said sterilizing people before they come in here. I'm not supportive of that. But maybe
00:13:10.620 there's a question about, you know, if you're if you're a pregnant individual, you're not allowed
00:13:14.420 to come to this country because there's the risk that you're going to have your baby here. And then
00:13:18.020 we have your child who is not from here, has no connection to this country because their parents
00:13:22.660 don't is now a citizen. So there are other ways around this. And I think members of Congress need
00:13:27.040 to get really serious about creatively trying to preserve our country, because what the Supreme
00:13:31.680 Court has essentially said this morning is you don't have a country anymore. Anybody can come
00:13:36.820 here and be a citizen and infiltrate. I mean, even a Chinese spy, I can come here and become an
00:13:41.880 American. And Thomas Aquinas talked about this in the Summa Theologica many times where he said,
00:13:48.360 you cannot have a situation where droves of foreigners come in and undermine the common 1.00
00:13:55.260 good, undermine the moral heritage of a people. Doesn't mean you have to hate foreigners from a
00:14:01.020 Christian perspective, but you do have a requirement to preserve the common good of a
00:14:05.500 people. What the court did this morning is say, there is no common good. We don't care. There
00:14:10.080 are no people. America isn't a real country, isn't a citizenry. And that needs to be, I think,
00:14:16.800 taken very seriously by our leaders to do what they can and mitigate the disaster of this morning.
00:14:23.540 you know it's it's people are are are just sending in so many comments right now about
00:14:31.880 other things that we could do i had tweeted out about uh you know mandatory um spot pregnancy
00:14:38.460 checks for for foreigners as they come in uh and then uh so andrew branca um who's a guest on the
00:14:46.460 show as well uh great lawyer he said ah but what if they get pregnant right after they come in and
00:14:50.780 And I said, simple, send ICE to maternity wards. 1.00
00:14:54.600 You could just order OBGYNs, you know, it's and if they don't like it, then they can have their federal funding pulled.
00:15:01.300 I mean, look, at the end of the day, what I think is really significant here is that Kavanaugh in his concurrence gave us a very different reading.
00:15:10.520 And I think a lot of people are missing this.
00:15:12.060 I think the president actually is correct when he put up his true social and the Kavanaugh concurrence.
00:15:17.180 If anyone reads it, that's what we've been talking about on the show.
00:15:19.700 No, this is not cope.
00:15:20.780 We're actually looking at the document saying he's giving us a an arrow, a bright blinking arrow pointing towards the way to do this.
00:15:30.080 He's saying, look, I think that you can't do this through executive order, not because of the Constitution and the 14th Amendment, like all of the liberals.
00:15:39.840 And I put and I put Amy Coney Barrett in that as well are arguing.
00:15:42.720 He said, I think it just runs afoul of immigration law because there's already immigration law on the books.
00:15:49.000 You can't change the law with an executive order.
00:15:50.780 So this is an, you know, an issue of procedure.
00:15:53.760 And so if it's an issue of procedure, then all you need to do, as Kavanaugh wrote, is
00:15:59.900 just pass a new law writing that, hey, there are exceptions to this, for example, and then
00:16:05.980 you can outline what those exceptions are.
00:16:08.420 And chief among which obviously would be if you are not citizens.
00:16:13.040 So if you're not citizens or you don't have legal status in the country.
00:16:17.180 And by the way, I would go so far as to apply that to if you're here on a visa or if you're
00:16:23.380 here on a green card, all these types of things, we should be discussing all of this.
00:16:27.720 And what Kavanaugh is saying is that just because we couldn't get this one done doesn't
00:16:32.740 mean that there's no way to do it.
00:16:34.400 And I think that's that's kind of a bigger issue that I've seen with a lot of people
00:16:37.720 on on the right or just people online.
00:16:40.360 When I go on, it's like you get one ounce of pushback and these people fold.
00:16:44.820 And I'm like, guys, we are in a fight for our civilization.
00:16:47.840 Did we ever say it was going to be easy?
00:16:49.720 And I don't know, Avita, that's just kind of the mentality that, look, I'm not going
00:16:54.660 to say I was happy about the decision, obviously, but I don't get discouraged.
00:16:58.460 I say, OK, what do we got to do to fight back?
00:17:01.360 And I don't know.
00:17:01.980 Are you seeing that?
00:17:02.760 Are you seeing that online?
00:17:03.740 Are you seeing that the Gen Z types out there?
00:17:05.800 You're always sort of our whisperer for Gen Z. 0.99
00:17:08.000 Are you seeing this despair taking over?
00:17:10.840 Yeah, you know, Jack, I think I do see a lot of despair. But I think the pushback is we do have to be happy warriors. We do. And we have to be creative. And the other thing is, sometimes we are such rule followers, I think, to our own detriment, where somebody says, okay, well, the court made their decision, I guess we don't have a country anymore.
00:17:33.260 And that's just not a way to live. And I think the MAGA movement, the populist, the new right movement has always been a group of fighters, people who don't just surrender their country, their people to radicals, to leftists or to weak Republicans.
00:17:53.980 We need to lean into the energy of the new right. Don't be beat down by by Amy Coney Barrett's right, who are allegedly conservative, who but, you know, in practice really are not.
00:18:06.280 yeah again there's so many things that we can we can talk about as ways to fix this
00:18:14.920 and go by the way going to the courts isn't by the way the you know default conservative way
00:18:20.940 to do things that was always a liberal uh a liberal artifice to begin with because the
00:18:26.540 liberals were the ones if you go back to the 60s and 70s they were the ones passing all of these
00:18:31.900 things by judicial fiat, and then it was conservatives who were fighting to undo those.
00:18:36.940 Now, obviously, there's been a lot of bad decisions on this in the past, just like Roe v. Wade was a
00:18:41.720 bad decision, constitutionally speaking. But that doesn't mean that going to the court should be
00:18:46.620 our default. Has it been good for a while? Absolutely. Has it been good for a number of
00:18:50.960 things? Absolutely. But guess what? There are other avenues. There's a whole government. And
00:18:56.140 it's kind of like the liberals with abortion, right? They lost Roe v. Wade, but then what do
00:19:00.280 do they moved to the states and they said okay we're going to do plan b by mail we're going to
00:19:04.520 do you know getting people across state lines we're going to set up things they created systems
00:19:10.120 to be able to do it they didn't quit and i'm just sitting there going you know why is it that the
00:19:15.240 other side has that level of fight in them and we just don't seem to have it yeah well i i think i
00:19:23.240 think part of part of the issue jack too is like we we look around and we don't recognize our
00:19:27.320 our neighbors, like to sympathize with the black pillars for a second, you know, you go into
00:19:32.460 Walmart and you, you know, 10 years ago, 15 years ago, it was one thing. And now it's something
00:19:39.080 completely different, right? Like stores are closing down because of looting. You go to a
00:19:44.540 baseball game at your kid's school and, you know, half the kids' parents don't speak the language
00:19:48.800 and they're living off of government funds that they're not entitled to. I mean, like people look
00:19:54.800 around and they feel very discouraged and that's very understandable. Um, but you have to think
00:20:00.840 about, you know, what's beyond just yourself. I mean, I, this is how I feel, um, as, as a new mom,
00:20:06.380 I have a little, little tiny baby. She's only a month old. What, what am I doing, um, for her
00:20:12.300 and her future? If I black pill at a time like this, you have to think beyond yourself. You have
00:20:17.340 to think selfless, selflessly about future generations and continue the fight. Because
00:20:22.300 if you don't, right, you, you, you really are doing a disservice to your children and your
00:20:26.420 grandchildren. Whoa, Evita Duffy, she's got that new mom energy over here. She's like, I got skin 0.78
00:20:32.960 in the game. Now this is a new fight. I love it. And you're exactly right. This is why, this is
00:20:38.040 why it's parents. This is why it's mothers and fathers that step up and end up making the best
00:20:42.980 leaders. This is what JD Vance was talking about when he talked about the childless cat ladies,
00:20:46.360 when he's talking about Kamala Harris and others, they say, if you don't have kids,
00:20:50.820 what are you doing this for right if you don't have kids what are you actually trying to save
00:20:55.780 society for or fix society for you're not trying to do it for anyone and you see president trump
00:21:00.100 and you know for for all his faults right the guy has a beautiful family and he's got like
00:21:04.660 dozens of grandkids that's what he's fighting for avita duffy where can people follow you

00:21:24.100 you talk about influences these are influences and uh they're friends of mine jack so like
00:21:36.940 where's jack he's got a great job
00:21:40.560 all right folks as we close in on the election coming up later just pretty fast up to the end
00:21:48.300 of the summer, you should be expecting more and more shocking events happening around the world
00:21:53.680 and home. And I don't believe that it's all a coincidence. Neither should you. Our society
00:21:57.640 faces additional challenges, high inflation, mounting debt, rising interest rates and labor
00:22:01.940 disputes. The president is doing what he can, but these factors further strain our economy
00:22:06.140 with escalating global tensions, threatening to disrupt vital energy supply chains. There's a
00:22:11.660 reason why so many patriots preserve their wealth with gold because it stands on its own as a beacon
00:22:15.600 of stability, and over the last five years, almost doubled in value. Allegiance Gold has
00:22:19.940 done things the right way from the beginning, so it's no coincidence that they've earned the
00:22:23.420 highest trust ratings in the precious metals industry, five stars with TrustLink, and an A-plus

00:22:50.660 Make sure that you're not betting everything when everything is on the line.
00:22:54.860 All right, folks, we're back. Jack Posobiec. We're on with Senator Jim Banks from the great state of Indiana and wanted to go through.
00:23:02.380 And, you know, we talked about the Supreme Court decision and obviously it wasn't the one we wanted, but it just means we have a little bit more work to do.
00:23:08.180 and that's okay. We're conservatives. Hard work doesn't scare us as it does to perhaps some others
00:23:14.120 of different political persuasions. That's okay. But Senator, you've actually put in some great
00:23:19.000 work on the NDAA as pertains to DEI and classical learning. I wanted to give you the opportunity
00:23:27.160 to lay that out for the audience. Well, thank God we have Secretary Hegseth at the Pentagon. I mean,
00:23:32.920 his legacy there is significant. He's the best Secretary of War, Secretary of Defense that I've
00:23:38.620 worked with in my 10 years in Congress. And his whole focus is restoring lethality. And that means
00:23:43.920 stripping every mention of DEI out of the law and getting it out of our Pentagon forever.
00:23:50.040 Last year, I passed an amendment that went a long ways toward that. But this year's amendment that
00:23:56.080 I passed in the markup before the Senate Armed Services Committee a couple of weeks ago, by the
00:24:01.200 way. It was a party line vote. Every Republican voted for it. Every Democrat voted against it.
00:24:05.040 It would uphold Pentagon policies under Hexet that bans pronoun use in emails and then stop
00:24:13.900 DEI from being used anywhere at the Pentagon for promotions or for DEI being used in any fashion
00:24:23.040 in the military. Make the military merit-based fully once again, and our military will be a lot
00:24:29.980 stronger for it. So we passed that amendment in the Senate bill. I hope it passes out of the full
00:24:35.880 Senate and then and then it matches. I hope the House passes it as well and then make that the
00:24:41.480 law of the land in the bill when it goes to the president for him to sign it later this year.
00:24:48.320 Well, this is so important because when it comes to the military, as Secretary Hagseth says over
00:24:53.400 and over, but also as it comes to people like yourself who served sort of in the Obama era of
00:24:59.400 the military when and then the biden era when we saw it going peak woke we would see that people
00:25:05.160 were put into positions of power uh not going to name names right here but uh it flag officers and
00:25:11.800 at the command level where they were not put on the basis of competency and they were not put on
00:25:18.280 the basis of whether or not they knew how to fight and win america's wars or prepare us to defend our
00:25:25.800 country against our adversaries. OK, I will name one name because, Senator, I have tried so hard
00:25:30.700 to find just one image of Mark Milley in PT gear. I've never been able to find it. I was going deep
00:25:38.520 through the Pentagon archives with I can't find I've never been able to find one. Just saying,
00:25:42.280 just saying he was the worst of the worst. And thankfully, Secretary Hegseth, President Trump
00:25:48.800 have gone so far, not not just to symbolically, they took his portrait down when Hegseth became
00:25:55.420 Secretary of Defense, now war. They took General Milley's portrait down, which was symbolic.
00:26:02.780 But what's a lot more important than that is stripping out any remnants that that guy has,
00:26:07.540 any impact that he has at the Pentagon with holdovers that were loyal to him or
00:26:14.440 policies that Milley put in place. Secretary Hegseth has done so much to try to clean up
00:26:21.060 the military and the Pentagon from the mess that Biden and General Milley created there.
00:26:28.640 And I give Pete so much credit. I mean, he's been so strong. He's done such a great job.
00:26:34.800 I'm glad to work with him. And a lot of people are surprised that some of this DEI language still
00:26:40.040 exists in the law. I mean, Secretary Hegseth and President Trump have put a lot of executive
00:26:44.880 orders into action, but it's still mentioned in the law because it was passed by the Democrats
00:26:50.160 under Biden. And that's why I'm working so hard to strip it out of the law. Don't don't allow any
00:26:55.220 mention of DEI, restore merit, make make sure that's the law of the land. So the next time we
00:27:00.620 have a Democrat president, God forbid, come along and take over again. They can't enforce some of
00:27:06.580 that language that was there before. I've made it one of my top missions in the Congress to do that.
00:27:11.620 And it's a lot easier to do that with Secretary Hegseth at the Pentagon.
00:27:14.840 on. Well, and Senator, something else you did, and I know you have to run, but if I could just
00:27:19.920 add that something that I've actually talked about for years, you got it across the finish
00:27:24.760 line, is that you're actually targeting the military war colleges and the leadership schools
00:27:31.360 within the military itself for some, and the military academies, to work on the classical
00:27:38.140 learning tests and make sure the classical learning is in there, because this is where the
00:27:43.080 elite of the military leadership came from. And this was directly targeted by the Obama era and
00:27:49.420 the Biden era, sort of these woke apparatchiks that were getting in because the same way they
00:27:55.280 did with the college system in the civilian population, they were doing the same for the
00:28:00.520 military population to shape the force along those lines. So I really want to commend you for
00:28:06.500 understanding that this is a systemic problem that we had seen through the military, the same
00:28:11.880 way we have at the civilian side, and you took steps to actually target it head on.
00:28:17.580 Well, I tried to pass this amendment last year and it failed, but I passed an amendment in the
00:28:22.520 markup this year. I actually got two Democrats to vote for it on the Armed Services Committee
00:28:26.540 that says that the military academies have to accept the classical learning test as a college
00:28:32.400 entrance exam. The SAT and the ACT shouldn't have a monopoly on this. There are lots of
00:28:38.200 examples of the SAT going woke, while the classical learning test actually tests
00:28:46.180 about the country's founding and emphasizes teachings about our founding principles.
00:28:53.120 And these are skills that we want our young people to have when they go to the Naval Academy
00:28:59.280 or West Point or the Air Force Academy, to our military academies. We want to know that these
00:29:04.540 kids have skills and have learned about our nation's founding and our country would be better
00:29:10.580 for it. We would certainly hope so. Senator, happy 250th to you. Thanks for your time.
00:29:16.020 Great. Thank you. Thank you. God bless. The great senator right there, Jim Banks,
00:29:21.580 Hoosier State. Right back for more Human Events Daily.
00:29:28.680 In our way, in our golden age has just begun. This is Human Events with Jack Posovo.
00:29:33.840 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America first truly means.
00:29:38.540 Welcome to the second American revolution.
00:29:47.580 All right, folks, we're back. Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily.
00:29:50.800 America this week, this Saturday is turning 250 and boy, she doesn't look a day over 25.
00:29:58.060 Am I right? OK, look, we're not celebrating weakness.
00:30:01.080 we are celebrating freedom, strength, the greatest country in the world. And here's the crazy part.
00:30:06.880 250 years later, we're still here drinking whatever the water that the government decided
00:30:12.340 to send to us in our pipes. Fluoride for your teeth, chlorine to keep things clean. That's not
00:30:18.120 a decision I want someone else making for my family, which is why I use Cove Pure to purify
00:30:24.140 my water. Over 209 million Americans are on fluoride of water right now. And here's what
00:30:29.080 the science actually shows. A recent study confirmed that fluoride exposure is linked
00:30:34.060 to lower IQ scores in children. The more fluoride you get, the lower the IQ. This has actually
00:30:41.120 come out in the studies. It's been something that is born out. And so what myself and what
00:30:46.420 the Poso family has decided to do is really simple. We are going to continue to get ours
00:30:51.560 from Cove Pure. So if you want to get yours as well, that's C-O-V-E-P-U-R-E dot com slash
00:30:57.420 Poso. We're very honored to have here once again on Human Events Daily, Senator Jim Banks joins us,
00:31:04.660 one of the best patriotic senators that we have in the country. Senator, how are you?
00:31:09.740 Hey, good to be with you. Well, we just got this new ruling down from the Supreme Court on the
00:31:16.940 birthright citizenship, EO. Now, I've seen the headline as well as many others, but it does seem
00:31:22.140 that there's a lot more going on underneath the hood of this 5-4 decision. Wanted to get your
00:31:27.480 reaction to the latest from the Supreme Court on striking down President Trump's executive order
00:31:31.960 on birthright citizenship. Well, there were a number of decisions that we celebrate. This is
00:31:37.860 the worst decision I think we've seen in a very long time to uphold President Trump's executive
00:31:44.780 order to ban birthright citizenship. There's so much at stake here. I mean, the Democrats
00:31:48.580 flooded our country with tens of millions of illegals for this explicit purpose. So 0.70
00:31:54.880 this underscores why mass deportations deport every single illegal out of our country. It
00:32:01.980 emphasizes how important that is. I think we've lost focus of that. And in so many ways, we've
00:32:09.360 moved on to a lot of other issues, but we got to get back to the importance of the mass deportation
00:32:15.280 effort that President Trump was elected specifically to engage, to deport every single
00:32:22.080 illegal, because we know that they are here to manipulate the system, use these loopholes and
00:32:29.060 change our country forever. So we have to mass deportations, deport every single one of them.
00:32:36.820 And then secondly, Jack, it shows how important the Supreme Court justices are. We have to replace
00:32:41.700 the bad ones with good ones. And we might have an opportunity even yet this year to replace
00:32:49.020 one or two of the best Supreme Court justices that we have ever had with good ones who think
00:32:56.700 just like they do. I mean, there was a fake news report from NPR earlier today that said that
00:33:02.740 Justice Alito is retiring. They retracted it. But there is a chance that that does happen
00:33:09.940 or that Justice Thomas, I wish Clarence Thomas could live forever. He's the greatest living
00:33:15.240 human being, greatest living American that we have today in our country. I wish that he could
00:33:20.880 live forever, but age is catching up with both of these guys. And we want to make sure that we
00:33:25.040 get Supreme Court justices who think just like they do to replace them whenever that time comes
00:33:30.280 and then replace the bad ones with good ones. And then the third thing that we have to do,
00:33:34.660 Jack, that's just as the most important thing that we can do between now and the end of the
00:33:39.540 year is pass the Save America Act, but also pass legislation or a constitutional amendment to ban
00:33:46.720 birthright citizenship. President Trump said already today that we can do it through
00:33:52.180 simple legislation, not a constitutional amendment. I want to explore every single
00:33:57.580 option that we have to ban birthright citizenship through the Congress. If the Supreme Court says
00:34:03.500 that the president's ban is unconstitutional, then we should find a constitutional avenue
00:34:10.920 to ban it, to stop it from happening with birthright tourism and some of these loopholes 0.82
00:34:18.840 being exploited by foreigners. We've got to do everything we can to stop it. 1.00
00:34:24.460 Well, that's exactly right. And it's just on its face. And not only is it fraud,
00:34:28.600 which should be illegal on the behalf of these birth tourism centers that are advocating for
00:34:35.560 people to come from foreign countries, Russia, China, who knows where else, to have children
00:34:42.680 here that could then grow up and be eligible to run for president. I mean, it's just on its face,
00:34:48.120 no serious country would allow something like this. But it's also a question of national security
00:34:54.440 When it comes to all of this, this is something, though, that I thought was very interesting.
00:34:58.860 I posted it earlier and the president is keying on it as well.
00:35:02.440 You just identified it.
00:35:03.540 And and folks, this is why this is why we need guys like Jim Banks in the United States Senate, because Kavanaugh wrote in his concurrence where he didn't totally disagree, but he didn't totally agree with the majority either.
00:35:16.020 What he wrote was, in my view, the executive order does not violate the 14th Amendment.
00:35:21.640 It just violates a federal statute. And he gives out the the the federal statute, 18 U.S.C. 1401 A.
00:35:30.880 But then he just then he simply adds that Congress could amend that statute or pass a new bill establishing exceptions to birthright citizenship for children born to foreign citizens unlawfully or temporarily in the country.
00:35:45.020 But Congress has not yet done so. And then so that's he had that in his concurrence. President Trump then added it, his support for something like that on Truth Social.
00:35:55.160 So it seems, though, that Kavanaugh is pointing out as far as I read it, that the 14th Amendment doesn't explicitly cover this.
00:36:04.720 But what they're talking about is it just the mechanism of doing it through an EO versus doing it through a law, which, as the president says, and as you say, is a much lower bar than a constitutional amendment.
00:36:16.840 Yeah, Justice Kavanaugh is giving us the direction for Congress to do what we should do, and that's to pass a bill to stop it from happening.
00:36:24.800 You look at the struggles with the Save America Act, but I hope that this Supreme Court decision will inspire some of my weak-kneed Republican colleagues to come back to Washington and just do what the voters expect us to do.
00:36:40.600 They expect us to pass a bill to require voter ID when voters vote or when they register to vote, which is common sense.
00:36:49.340 By the way, 80% of Americans support that, Republicans and Democrats.
00:36:53.360 I actually think, Jack, that this birthright citizenship issue is an 80-20 issue as well.
00:36:59.060 I mean, I think most Americans would agree that you can't exploit the system in a corrupt way like what's happening currently to grant birthright citizenship through some of these avenues.
00:37:11.140 So I hope we can come back and solve this with a simple bill.
00:37:15.780 I'm not going to hold my breath and fool myself into thinking that any Democrat will vote for it.
00:37:21.720 but let's explore every legislative avenue that we have, which means, by the way, that we have
00:37:27.100 to fight and we need strong Republicans in the Senate and the House who are willing to fight
00:37:32.580 for these issues. And that's been my biggest frustration in the United States Senate in the
00:37:37.360 last year and a half that I've been there. I served in the House for eight years before that
00:37:41.660 is the lack of fight. We need Republicans to step up and fight. And that was the message that
00:37:47.240 President Trump brought last week. He came and had lunch with us with Senate Republicans.
00:37:51.720 And he brought a tough love message.
00:37:53.220 He said, you guys aren't fighting hard enough.
00:37:54.780 You're not fighting hard enough for the Save America Act.
00:37:57.760 You're not fighting hard enough for the Trump agenda.
00:38:01.160 And President Trump is right.
00:38:02.360 We have a short window of time, just six months left in this year, to fight hard for these issues.
00:38:11.020 And now we have to put this birthright citizenship issue right at the top of the list, along with the Save America Act as top priority to pass before the midterm election.
00:38:21.720 Well, and Senator, what better way to change the conversation in the midterm elections as you're laying out here than let's have a vote of the entire Congress and the entire Senate.
00:38:32.780 And let's go see the House and the Senate. Let's go see where people's representatives stand on this issue.
00:38:39.480 Do you believe that illegal aliens should have and their children should get automatic citizenship?
00:38:45.460 because I know every conservative. It shouldn't even be a partisan issue, by the way. Let me
00:38:50.560 change the way I'm saying this. It's not a conservative issue or a liberal issue. It's
00:38:54.320 an American issue. It's do you think it's common sense to allow people who broke the law to come
00:38:59.480 into our country to have their kids get automatic citizenship? To your point, it's an 80-20 issue.
00:39:04.440 This could change the entire conversation going into those midterm elections by holding a vote
00:39:10.400 or a series of votes like this to be able to come up
00:39:13.020 and have those characters in the House and Senate
00:39:16.880 that you serve with, your wonderful colleagues,
00:39:19.820 go on and actually be on the record as to where they stand.
00:39:23.920 Yeah, I would love to see some of these vulnerable Democrat senators
00:39:28.880 in swing states vote against.
00:39:30.900 I would love to see them vote against it
00:39:32.180 because that would become the biggest issue in their re-election campaign.
00:39:36.020 But at the same time, it's also an opportunity for Republicans to lead
00:39:39.260 and to fight for something.
00:39:41.060 And this has been a frustration of mine.
00:39:42.880 We have to show our voters that we're fighting
00:39:44.440 and doing something.
00:39:46.300 And this is exactly the type of issue
00:39:49.140 that our base expects us to focus on
00:39:52.060 and fight for and pass.
00:39:54.420 And President Trump is calling on us to do that.
00:39:57.020 I think he's exactly right.
00:39:58.980 It's fundamental.
00:40:00.140 It's important to the future of this country.
00:40:01.620 As we celebrate America 250,
00:40:04.100 this milestone of the greatest country
00:40:06.000 in the history of the world,
00:40:07.060 Let's do what we let's do what we have to do to preserve it for the next generation and banning birthright citizenship and passing voter I.D. laws. 0.71
00:40:17.240 Those are fundamental to keeping this country great.
00:40:21.600 There's no question. There's no question. 8020 issue.
00:40:25.000 When we look at America's 250th, when we look at the founding generation and the things that they fought for and the things that they sacrificed for going all the way back to the first veterans of Valley Forge,
00:40:36.760 when they were freezing in the cold with Martha Washington darning socks and president or, you know,
00:40:42.900 future president Washington having to go out and say, I know you guys aren't even getting paid,
00:40:47.740 but would you just stay for another month past your enlistment date? And they still stayed anyway.
00:40:52.740 We owe it to them to continue the ideals of the country they fought for, not this kind of nonsense
00:40:59.360 that we hear about today. Jack Kosovic, Senator Jim Banks here reacting to the Supreme Court
00:41:03.900 decision, but also a number of wins that Senator Banks is going to detail for us in the next
00:41:08.220 segment here on Real America's Voice, Human Events Daily.
00:41:33.900 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth-generation warfare.
00:41:43.520 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:41:50.260 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:41:53.320 Christ is king!
00:41:54.880 A federal judge is pushing Luigi Mangione's federal trial date back to January of next year.
00:42:01.220 The hope was for that trial to happen in the fall, similar to the state case, but that will not happen.
00:42:06.720 Mangione, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, is facing both state and federal charges, and he is pleaded not guilty for both.
00:42:15.520 President Trump's envoy and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner and Steve Wyckoff, are in Doha right now for those crucial talks, according to the foreign ministry there.
00:42:25.200 A diplomat with knowledge of the talk says today they will meet with the Qatari prime minister.
00:42:29.760 Tomorrow, that diplomat says technical teams from the U.S. and a technical team from Iran will meet with mediators.
00:42:36.300 But, Craig, right now, as we speak, there appear to be no plans for a direct meeting between the U.S. and the Iranian teams.
00:42:44.200 The court is overturning campaign finance coordination limits.
00:42:47.820 Now, of course, these limits have been in place to limit how the political parties could work directly with candidates.
00:42:53.680 The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump's order to limit birthright citizenship.
00:43:00.280 The view from Justice Thomas, who was a dissenter here.
00:43:04.280 The 14th Amendment was enacted in the wake of the Civil War, quote,
00:43:07.600 with the one pervading purpose of securing equal citizenship for the freed slaves.
00:43:12.980 He goes on to say that the court, meaning the majority now, has repurposed the 14th Amendment
00:43:17.560 to protect its own set of preferred rights that the Reconstruction Congress never contemplated
00:43:22.820 and that cannot find support in the text.
00:43:25.800 The Supreme Court has just ruled on one of the biggest cases of the court's current term,
00:43:29.800 a case involving the constitutional rights of transgender student athletes
00:43:33.320 and specifically whether states can ban transgender athletes from playing on girls' sports teams.
00:43:39.180 Transgender athletes from Idaho and West Virginia challenge those state bans,
00:43:43.280 but it's bigger than just those two states.
00:43:45.260 Twenty-five other states have similar laws saying that transgender athletes can indeed participate,
00:43:50.160 but only on the team that matches their biological sex at birth.
00:43:54.060 They're saying that these state laws, you mentioned there are 27 of them,
00:43:57.200 more than half of the states have these kind of bans,
00:43:59.500 that they don't violate the Constitution's Equal Protection Clause,
00:44:02.720 and they do not violate Title IX.
00:44:07.380 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard.
00:44:11.080 Today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:44:13.780 Today, of course, is June 30th, 2026, Anno Domine.
00:44:19.080 Well, the Supreme Court did what I've been reporting that Supreme Court was going to do for about two weeks now.
00:44:29.140 Roberts and Barrett betrayed us, betrayed the country on birthright citizenship.
00:44:37.800 And they said that, oh, you know, we're going to get rid of this.
00:44:41.860 And they signed on with Ketanji Brown Jackson, who, by the way, her Supreme courtship is
00:44:48.040 about as valid as Ilhan Omar's citizenship because it was signed by an auto pen by a
00:44:54.320 brain addled miscreant who had no idea exactly who he was choosing.
00:44:59.400 But they decided to sign on with Kagan, Sotomayor.
00:45:04.220 And what do we have?
00:45:05.880 What do we have here?
00:45:06.720 We have a situation where the people of the United States don't get to decide who's allowed to become a citizen of the United States.
00:45:16.820 No, I don't think so.
00:45:18.720 No, I don't think so.
00:45:21.020 And let me tell you something right now.
00:45:22.880 Because I see a lot of people saying, oh, it's done.
00:45:25.340 Oh, it's all over.
00:45:27.180 We lost a case.
00:45:28.400 We didn't get what we wanted from the case.
00:45:30.480 Oh, no.
00:45:31.660 Woe is me.
00:45:33.140 It's all done.
00:45:34.000 It's all over.
00:45:34.540 No, I say that's a load of bunk.
00:45:36.720 I say that's a load of bunk.
00:45:39.680 Nothing is over until we say it is.
00:45:43.440 Nothing is over until we say it is. 0.87
00:45:48.780 Birthright citizenship will end.
00:45:52.920 Let me say that again. 0.94
00:45:54.540 Birthright citizenship will end because we will end it. 1.00
00:45:59.780 Specifically for illegal aliens. 1.00
00:46:03.240 It will be ended. 1.00
00:46:06.720 Okay. Couldn't get it through the court. Court wouldn't do the right thing. Court didn't have
00:46:11.940 the courage. Barrett, who is a DEI judge, called her out last year. I said, Barrett is a DEI judge.
00:46:20.240 Human Events back in 2019 was the only conservative publication that warned about Amy Coney Barrett.
00:46:29.380 We said she's a pro-life liberal. Said she's pro-life, but she's liberal on everything else, 0.84
00:46:33.740 right that has worn out folks you think that means you just quit you just you just go home
00:46:42.220 you stop fighting roe v wade was a 50 year process but fortunately we don't need to wait 50 years
00:46:50.140 because kavanaugh and his concurrence already gave us the plan he wrote his concurrence to say well
00:46:57.220 look hold on a second this didn't get done through an executive order but you don't have
00:47:03.660 to go all the way to a constitutional amendment to fix this all you have to do is change one law
00:47:09.660 all congress has to do is change one law so let me tell you here's what we're going to do
00:47:16.500 we're going to either add this as a skinny bill right add this as a clean bill up and down vote
00:47:24.180 and we're going to change the entire conversation of the midterms to be all about birthright
00:47:30.080 citizenship about illegal aliens, about deportations, about who can and who cannot be members of the
00:47:38.300 body of American citizens, which is a sacred, a sacred honor to be given citizenship of this
00:47:46.440 country. It's not a game of cross the line or can you make it sound like Frogger? Can you make it
00:47:51.780 across the street when you're a citizen because you're pregnant? No, no, it doesn't work that 1.00
00:47:55.080 way. We will get it done. We will get it done by God. And by God, we'll have our home again.
00:48:05.820 Nothing is over until we say it's over.
00:48:25.080 Thank you.
