00:00:25.820 The Poso Daily Brief.

00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.

00:00:39.480 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:46.120 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.

00:00:48.880 Deliver us from evil.

00:00:50.280 The International Criminal Court just now announced it is seeking arrest warrants for Hamas leader Yaha Senwar,

00:00:56.200 but also for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

00:00:59.680 Another destabilizing event in the already volatile Middle East as a helicopter crash kills Iran's president and other top officials.

00:01:07.020 That aircraft went down in heavy fog in northwest Iran near the border of Azerbaijan.

00:01:12.040 According to Iranian state media, a, quote, technical failure is the cause.

00:01:16.120 A Facebook executive was sentenced to five years in prison for, you know, this scam.

00:01:22.680 And they were a DEI, diversity executive.

00:01:25.500 And they had a scam.

00:01:26.720 They were ripping people off.

00:01:27.540 They ripped the companies off.

00:01:28.280 Five million bucks going to jail.

00:01:29.720 But they used the sort of the shield of DEI and racism to avoid criticism and prosecution.

00:01:36.040 The human rights campaign today is announcing a $15 million investment to mobilize voters in six key swing states.

00:01:46.460 We know black history is American history.

00:01:49.960 At Atlanta's historically black Morehouse College, President Joe Biden used his commencement speech to appeal to black voters in a state he won four years ago.

00:02:00.260 We're doing record numbers with the African-American voters.

00:02:04.540 Former President Donald Trump also made overtures to black voters over the weekend while addressing the National Rifle Association's annual meeting.

00:02:13.440 But Americans are not struggling.

00:02:15.360 You know, this is the worst platform.

00:02:16.760 Who put this stage up here? 0.63

00:02:19.720 This is the worst. 0.97

00:02:20.500 The frickin' place is falling down.

00:02:23.680 Cohen confirms that he owed Red Finch 50 grand and never paid the full cash. 0.72

00:02:30.320 Trump's attorney, Blanche, says, you stole from the Trump Organization.

00:02:34.080 Cohen says, yes, sir.

00:02:35.540 He also confirms lying to Allen Weisselberg.

00:02:38.300 I don't know how many that is on the list, but that's another prevarication.

00:02:43.600 Blanche presses Cohen, you did steal from the Trump Organization.

00:02:46.760 Based upon the expected reimbursement of Red Finch.

00:02:49.040 And he says, yes, sir.

00:02:51.620 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, live from Washington, D.C.

00:02:57.300 Today is May 20th, 2024.

00:03:00.080 Anno Domini.

00:03:01.660 Michael Cohen on the stand today for what's potentially his last day, as far as we know, of cross-examination.

00:03:08.680 Trump's lawyer went to town.

00:03:12.340 Absolutely went to town.

00:03:14.220 Folks, we got him.

00:03:15.680 Okay, mission accomplished.

00:03:17.800 And I'll tell you something right now.

00:03:19.040 You would have to be blind to find President Trump guilty after seeing that testimony.

00:03:26.280 This was never about justice.

00:03:28.280 This was about retribution for Trump winning 2016, looking like he's going to win 2024,

00:03:34.600 and probably winning the 2022 election as well.

00:03:38.260 But here's what's even more important.

00:03:40.420 Cohen testified that he was stealing as part of the scheme.

00:03:43.940 He was in on the scheme.

00:03:45.780 The guy who was the crooked fixer had actually fixed it so that he could make money by skimming

00:03:52.720 off the middle to the tune of $30,000 to $40,000 in his own pocket.

00:03:57.600 He was the guy who set up the payment scheme.

00:04:00.340 He was the guy who set up the illicit funds.

00:04:03.580 He was the guy who admitted to grand larceny on the stand.

00:04:09.120 And by the way, Mr. Alvin Bragg, no one is bigger than the law.

00:04:12.900 Well, why haven't you charged Michael Cohen for the crime of grand larceny?

00:04:19.280 Did you even make him pay it back?

00:04:21.080 Or was that a nice little sweetening of the pot when you agreed or when he agreed to be

00:04:26.080 your informant?

00:04:27.040 David Zier is there at the courthouse.

00:04:28.860 David, walk us through these bombshell revelations today.

00:04:32.860 Well, when Stormy Daniels took the stand, you heard the keyboards blazing away in there,

00:04:39.080 you know, because most of the media is liberal.

00:04:41.040 But then when Michael Cohen says yes, basically that he stole from the Trump organization by

00:04:47.460 receiving a check and not repaying a red finch, the $30,000 balance that was due out of the

00:04:54.340 50 that was originally owed to them, you didn't hear those keyboards typing away.

00:04:59.840 I think it was very damaging to the prosecution's case.

00:05:03.000 And now it appears, you know, is the judge slowing things down, Jack?

00:05:07.380 Is he going to slow things down and maybe, you know, break out early on Thursday because

00:05:11.340 the Jura has a thing and then not convene on Friday and wait until next Tuesday?

00:05:15.040 So the sting from Cohen being called out and the establishment of the gross lies that he

00:05:21.840 told over time that Blanche has been so effective in lining up in chronological order, the lies,

00:05:28.760 including even when he was sentenced.

00:05:31.320 Michael Cohen lied again to the judge when he was being sentenced after receiving leniency

00:05:35.500 on the sentence.

00:05:36.760 Now, David, this has been an extraordinary day.

00:05:38.980 Can I ask you, can I ask you, just before we go to break here, what's been the reaction from the jurors,

00:05:43.540 the jury box?

00:05:46.160 So observing them, about three of them were feverishly taking notes, which means,

00:05:51.160 appears to be that maybe they're taking this very seriously.

00:05:54.560 Maybe before they could have seen it as a walk in the park for the prosecution.

00:05:58.620 Not so sure.

00:05:59.800 Cohen damaged everybody.

00:06:01.320 Stormy tainted the case.

00:06:02.920 Not such an easy decision now, Jack.

00:06:05.500 Well, well, we will see.

00:06:07.420 David Zier doing the yeoman's work there at the courtroom.

00:06:10.300 David, thank you for your update.

00:06:11.860 And I'm sure Real America Sports will be checking back.

00:06:14.040 We'll be back here at Human Events Daily right after the break.

00:06:16.840 I want to know the truth, what really went down.

00:06:19.920 So I'm jumping on my computer, going to pre-order town.

00:06:53.220 He's done a great job.

00:06:54.600 All right, folks.

00:06:58.660 We are back here.

00:06:59.980 New York City is where the trial is going on.

00:07:02.820 We're in Washington.

00:07:03.760 We're going to have all the latest on this.

00:07:05.800 But first, folks, how do you survive a communist apocalypse?

00:07:19.220 And that's checking out today's show sponsor, Allegiance Gold.

00:07:21.560 Since 2020, Bidenomics has obliterated the American economy.

00:07:25.560 Imagine what four more years will do to interest rates, debt, and labor disputes.

00:07:30.160 You need something stable so you know that you can take a breath and know that your money

00:07:34.160 you earned and the retirement you worked for is safe.

00:07:37.060 You have to proactively protect your assets so that when the supply chains get rocked and

00:07:41.380 Biden decides to print a few more trillion dollar bills, it won't impact your family's bottom

00:07:45.880 line.

00:07:46.460 And the only way to do that is with the one true beacon of stability that so many patriots

00:07:50.000 use to preserve their wealth and that, my friends, is gold.

00:07:53.620 Over the last five years, it's almost doubled in value.

00:07:56.540 And with the way things are looking, the sky is the limit.

00:08:52.500 Richard Barris is someone who's got his and had his for a long time.

00:08:55.940 The People's Pundit rejoins us here.

00:08:58.220 Human Events Daily.

00:08:59.140 Rich, I got to ask you, man.

00:09:00.780 It's looking to me that at this point, Cohen has impeached himself on the stand, admitted

00:09:09.800 to crimes against the Trump Organization.

00:09:12.760 At this point, the only person that they have proven to commit a crime is their own star witness,

00:09:21.440 Michael Cohen.

00:09:22.820 Rich, we were told that these cases were going to be the end of Donald Trump.

00:09:26.720 What's going on?

00:09:28.440 Listen, Jack, as a native New Yorker, okay, I live in the South now, but as a native New

00:09:33.340 Yorker, I never even thought I'd see something.

00:09:35.380 Here we go.

00:09:35.920 He's winding up, folks.

00:09:37.240 I've never thought I'd see something like this.

00:09:40.060 You know, this is the only case, especially high profile like this, where the defendant

00:09:45.380 is on trial, and the star witnesses are admitting on the stand, committing crimes against the

00:09:53.160 defendant, yet he's the one who's on trial.

00:09:56.160 It's absolutely insane.

00:09:57.680 And for those who don't know this, I've worked on a lot of high profile stuff.

00:10:01.540 We pick juries.

00:10:03.000 We observe juries.

00:10:04.860 And, you know, from what I'm hearing, it does look like this jury is being serious, taking

00:10:09.800 it all very seriously.

00:10:10.780 You have got to get the jury to like you, and they did not appreciate Stormy Daniels

00:10:16.120 with her attempt at humor, and when they were being serious, they did not appreciate the

00:10:20.680 prosecution misleading them.

00:10:22.420 They did not appreciate Mr. Cohen lying, getting caught lying on the stand multiple times.

00:10:27.760 You have—the question now is whether or not there are enough liberal jurors on that,

00:10:33.540 you know, in that jury box that hate Donald Trump more than they dislike the prosecution in

00:10:40.500 their witnesses, and that's really what it's going to come down to.

00:10:43.160 It's an interesting way how the human brain, how we all filter evidence and the stories,

00:10:48.760 the prosecution, the defense tell us through these lenses of our own belief systems.

00:10:53.720 It's very interesting, a lot more interesting than do you approve or disapprove.

00:10:57.680 And in this case, it's going to be—it's going to come down to that.

00:11:01.800 That's what we're—that's what we're seeing.

00:11:04.000 I never thought that they would blow this case this badly.

00:11:07.140 I never thought any other venue, this case would be done by now, over.

00:11:13.140 This is crazy.

00:11:14.260 It's just crazy. 0.97

00:11:15.000 This is a ludicrous case. 0.72

00:11:16.400 Sorry. 0.60

00:11:17.520 Facts.

00:11:18.520 Now, do you think—do you think—do you think Trump testifies?

00:11:22.900 I don't think he needs to.

00:11:24.820 I really don't.

00:11:25.680 You know, there's a really old saying, you don't put the client on the stand unless they

00:11:29.940 have to.

00:11:30.500 I don't really see a need for Trump to testify, and then especially since, you know, he's

00:11:37.000 got a habit of being a little bit combative.

00:11:39.100 You know, he was cool as a cucumber in the last—the last time that he testified, and

00:11:43.480 the prosecution was the one who got so flustered and, you know, started to lose their minds

00:11:48.220 a little bit.

00:11:49.000 But you don't need to unless you need to tell another story.

00:11:52.620 You need the defendant to get up there, get liked by the jury, and then, you know, to explain

00:11:57.060 away something the prosecution has levied at you.

00:12:00.100 Right now, Trump doesn't need to do any of that.

00:12:02.940 Michael Cohen has killed this case, and what they allowed to happen with Stormy Daniels

00:12:09.280 is absolutely irreversible error.

00:12:12.220 They are—this case will be overturned even if they get a conviction.

00:12:16.580 I don't know how anyone could honestly say otherwise.

00:12:19.980 By the way, same jurisdiction, Harvey Weinstein, and that case was a lot harder case to make

00:12:26.460 to the higher court that things should be overturned and reversed and overturned, and yet they

00:12:31.460 got it.

00:12:32.200 So in this case, it's a much clearer instance of such an error.

00:12:39.540 So this is their best bet to go get Donald Trump.

00:12:43.880 I got to say this, Jack.

00:12:44.960 It's amazing, truly amazing how this man deals with adversity.

00:12:49.660 And then, you know, not only does he deal with it, but he comes out on top.

00:12:53.300 Like, Fannie has destroyed herself.

00:12:55.840 You know, Jack Smith is on hold for the foreseeable future.

00:13:00.460 This man has a remarkable way of bouncing back and dealing with adversity like no other public

00:13:06.840 figure we've ever seen, Jack.

00:13:08.920 It's crazy.

00:13:09.640 And just going back on the case there for a second, it seems to me the only person in the

00:13:15.900 courtroom that hasn't been proven of a crime at this point is the defendant, Donald Trump.

00:13:24.120 Trump's the only guy that they haven't proved a crime against.

00:13:27.480 They proved Stormy Daniels.

00:13:29.020 I can see some criminal activity there.

00:13:30.900 Stormy Daniels, this ex-husband, ex-boyfriend type.

00:13:35.340 Obviously, a bunch of the guys who were associated with bringing the case in the first place and

00:13:40.220 some of the malfeasance that they performed.

00:13:41.920 But then now this star witness, I'll never forget, Rich, and I know you read Political

00:13:46.380 Playbook and all those sites as well because we do this because we have to see what the

00:13:50.500 other side is up to.

00:13:51.740 They were all telling us that Michael Cohen was the guy, that Michael Cohen, he was like

00:13:57.260 the cleanup hitter.

00:13:58.940 They're like, oh, we got them all set up now.

00:14:01.520 They got three men on base.

00:14:03.480 And Michael Cohen, the slugger, the Babe Ruth of politics is going to come out and he's

00:14:08.520 going to put Trump away one, two, three, wham, bam.

00:14:11.960 Thank you, ma'am.

00:14:13.400 This guy has not only has he struck out, he's actually hit pop flies that have made the

00:14:18.960 other runners get out.

00:14:19.980 All right, I'm going to drop the baseball references.

00:14:22.020 But what can I say?

00:14:22.960 My kids have been playing T-ball.

00:14:24.080 I'm going to watch a lot of baseball lately. 0.96

00:14:25.460 But this is ridiculous. 0.86

00:14:29.500 This is so ridiculous because now you've got a situation where they, remember, the 0.96

00:14:34.620 Blue Anon types have been told for years that Trump was going down. 0.70

00:14:39.360 So, I mean, Rich, what effect is the media going to have?

00:14:43.800 You know, we have seen at least some of the smarter people, like, say what you want about

00:14:47.500 Anderson Cooper and those types.

00:14:48.560 He's not dumb.

00:14:50.240 He's not dumb. 0.95

00:14:50.780 He might be a liar, but he's not dumb. 0.97

00:14:52.420 Those guys already started dumping Cohen immediately. 0.92

00:14:56.600 Do you think there's going to be people in the media left holding a bag on this?

00:15:00.400 Even Ari Melber.

00:15:02.040 He's a get.

00:15:02.780 He's in a get Trump mouthpiece for for six years now.

00:15:07.040 Jack, he's running for the hills, running for the hills.

00:15:10.420 What did Ari say? 1.00

00:15:11.540 What did Ari say? 1.00

00:15:12.160 I didn't catch that.

00:15:12.640 He said that Michael Cohen at first, he got on that stand.

00:15:15.220 And I totally agreed with what Ari said on Tuesday.

00:15:18.280 He got on the process last week.

00:15:19.640 The prosecution had him tell the story they wanted him to tell.

00:15:22.260 And then Todd Blanchett just came out the very first interaction, the first day, which

00:15:27.020 they had to, of course, you know, take back up until the next day.

00:15:29.900 But that first day, Ari said there were punches landed.

00:15:33.340 Then there were bruises.

00:15:35.080 This is Ari Melber, MSNBC, by the way.

00:15:37.080 Yes.

00:15:37.480 And then by Friday, he said blood in the water.

00:15:42.360 Blood has been drawn.

00:15:43.600 Blood has been spilled.

00:15:44.340 Don't forget Ari Melber is the guy who ran that stunt where he got Michael Avenatti, the

00:15:51.620 original lawyer. 0.73

00:15:52.700 Remember, creepy porn lawyer on the phone from prison. 0.84

00:15:56.440 And Ari Melber was like, I'm going to put you on.

00:15:59.000 And he thought it was going to be this big exclusive.

00:16:00.660 And Michael Avenatti calls into MSNBC from prison in California.

00:16:07.180 And Ari Melber thinks it's going to be this big, you know, great interview on the on the

00:16:11.480 eve of the Trump trial.

00:16:13.500 And Avenatti says, what are you doing?

00:16:16.280 What are you doing putting these guys on trial?

00:16:19.080 You can't put him up there.

00:16:20.700 You can't bring this case.

00:16:22.380 This is beyond the statute of limitations.

00:16:24.080 The character witnesses that you brought forward and the material witnesses that you brought

00:16:28.840 forward are convicted perjurers.

00:16:32.020 You're going to put people like that on the stand.

00:16:34.020 They're going to continue lying.

00:16:36.100 Your case is going to be destroyed.

00:16:38.060 And Melber was sitting there like, what do I do?

00:16:40.420 What do I do?

00:16:41.080 He lets Avenatti speak.

00:16:42.380 Then he goes back.

00:16:43.200 Then MSNBC puts Ari on a struggle session. 0.99

00:16:46.660 And they're like, how dare you?

00:16:47.900 You should have pushed back.

00:16:49.040 You should have talked to her.

00:16:50.640 I rest my case.

00:16:51.940 It feels like Ari has learned his lesson a little bit.

00:16:56.140 I rest my case.

00:16:57.560 His hand touched the stove.

00:16:58.900 His hand touched the stove a little too long.

00:17:00.920 A little burnt.

00:17:02.000 I rest my case.

00:17:03.160 If he is running for the table.

00:17:03.780 Last minute, Riz. 0.88

00:17:04.480 Last minute.

00:17:05.240 Yeah, that's it.

00:17:06.020 I rest my case.

00:17:06.880 If someone like him is running for the hills from this, then what does that tell you,

00:17:12.300 folks?

00:17:12.620 Where does that tell you about where we are?

00:17:14.540 I just want to bring up again that Mueller kicked this guy to the Southern District.

00:17:18.640 The Southern District kicked it.

00:17:19.920 Everybody kicked the can.

00:17:20.960 And only Albert Bragg with the number three Biden lackey at the Justice Department was 0.99

00:17:25.860 dumb enough to try to pull this off. 0.97

00:17:27.900 And even if they buy some chance and, you know, you know what freezes over and they get 0.99

00:17:32.620 a conviction, it's going to be overturned.

00:17:36.020 This is the worst attempted prosecution I've ever seen.

00:17:39.580 They crossed the Rubicon for this, for this, Jack.

00:17:43.400 This is what they crossed the Rubicon for.

00:17:45.540 God help us.

00:17:46.740 God help us all.

00:17:47.780 This is.

00:17:48.440 And think about that, right?

00:17:49.600 Think about that where you just said across the Rubicon of indicting a presidential candidate

00:17:54.700 from Michael opponent to the to the current sitting party, the top opposition leader over

00:18:02.660 Michael Cohen and this guy who was thieving as and this is what people need to understand.

00:18:07.440 He was thieving as part of the scheme.

00:18:11.420 That means that all of his motivations and all of his actions now are completely impeached because

00:18:18.580 he had a financial incentive to see that this extortion theme went through.

00:18:24.460 He was making money off of the back end. 0.95

00:18:27.560 He was skimming off the top like the rat that Mickey Cohen has always been. 0.85

00:19:57.120 We're on with Rich Barris, the people's pundit.

00:19:58.880 Rich, now it's been a while since we had you on for a polling update and I want to go

00:20:05.540 through that.

00:20:05.920 Let's just go top line.

00:20:07.100 If you're running the Trump campaign right now and you're out there looking at the

00:20:11.640 battleground states, what is your strategy?

00:20:14.860 Where does Trump need to go to win this thing?

00:20:18.960 Yeah, I mean, he's he's doing a remarkable job putting together what I long have advocated

00:20:25.140 is the strongest route for Republicans, which is the urban rural coalition.

00:20:29.420 If you have a populist head of the party, that's something you can do that no other Republican

00:20:35.280 have been able to do.

00:20:36.140 The Sunbelt is rejecting Biden hardcore.

00:20:38.800 So where he has some strength and Trump needs to just put the knife in the I mean, the nail

00:20:44.480 in the coffin is in the Rust Belt.

00:20:46.640 So I would put him on defense, too.

00:20:49.080 And I know that they are doing that.

00:20:50.600 Virginia and Minnesota, their top targets.

00:20:53.080 Listen, I'm telling you, if he may if he wins Maine's second congressional district by

00:20:59.020 as much as the Pan-Atlantic polls suggest that he will.

00:21:02.100 While I'm waiting for the DRI, that's a great poll out there, then Maine could be in play.

00:21:07.100 It's serious.

00:21:07.520 And it's not a lot of electoral votes, but it tells you a lot about where you need to

00:21:11.060 go.

00:21:11.460 And Minnesota is not fool's gold. 0.90

00:21:13.540 He almost took it from Hillary.

00:21:15.100 If he can get, you know, the Twin Lakes suburbs to to Twin City suburbs to vote more like they 1.00

00:21:22.180 did for him in 16, along with, you know, coupled along with his strength that he's been building

00:21:26.780 in the southeastern part of that state and then the the Iron Range, that is definitely

00:21:32.220 a state that could be that Biden will have to defend.

00:21:35.720 And he is defending it, by the way, Jack.

00:21:37.780 And so so for people who think, oh, why is he going to New Jersey?

00:21:40.900 Why is he talking about New York?

00:21:42.660 The more you make the president defend, he's going to have a massive financial advantage

00:21:46.900 over Donald Trump, where he may where the more he makes Biden defend states that should

00:21:52.740 be already in his column is less is one more dollar or one more million that he gets to

00:21:58.140 spend in Michigan or Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, because Trump really, given the way the Sun

00:22:03.200 Belt is voting, Trump just at this point kind of just needs one of them.

00:22:07.720 Jack, I mean, Florida is not in play.

00:22:10.200 North Carolina has been moving with the nation almost identically.

00:22:13.300 And we always talked about the red wave in Florida in 22.

00:22:15.960 Nobody noticed the red wave that was in North Carolina in 22.

00:22:19.760 They swept legislatures with super majorities, won both Supreme Court seats, won the Senate

00:22:24.820 seat for North Carolina is starting to remind me a little bit of Florida circa 2016, 17.

00:22:32.380 So it's moving with the nation almost identically.

00:22:35.100 Nevada, he looks well positioned to take that.

00:22:37.920 So when you put all these pieces and you put the math together, it means Biden has got to

00:22:42.500 hold every single Rust Belt state plus Maine, Maine's at large.

00:22:46.960 If he loses any of them, he's done.

00:22:49.780 He's done.

00:22:50.640 And by the way, this is not something just the right acknowledges.

00:22:53.460 Biden's own team knows that he's hurting badly in the Rust Belt and he needs to protect in

00:22:58.240 Michigan, in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

00:23:00.240 I would just run between Minnesota.

00:23:03.440 Yeah, I would run between Minnesota.

00:23:05.100 You took the words right out of my mouth.

00:23:07.020 I was going to say Minnesota and Maine and just keep hitting the northern battlegrounds

00:23:13.640 like that.

00:23:14.340 And again, even if he doesn't carry Maine, even if he doesn't carry Minnesota, it won't

00:23:18.860 matter.

00:23:18.980 You know what I'm going to ask?

00:23:20.380 You know, a question I'm going to ask, Rich, I'm going to ask the P word. 0.99

00:23:22.980 You know, it was coming up.

00:23:23.920 You've come on my show, Pennsylvania.

00:23:26.380 What can you tell me about the keystone state?

00:23:30.080 Yeah, I look, Trump's got a little he's got a lead there.

00:23:32.740 He does.

00:23:33.340 Is it as big as he would like it to be?

00:23:35.400 No, because Democrats do what Democrats do. 0.55

00:23:37.820 We all need to stop pretending as if they don't.

00:23:40.260 But the good news for him and other Republicans, if they were smart enough to acknowledge it,

00:23:45.240 it seems like the president does get this, is that that not that low prop voter, Jack,

00:23:50.380 and the no prop voter is such a Republican rich target.

00:23:54.420 I've never seen this in my lifetime.

00:23:56.640 And he gets those people out.

00:23:58.320 He's going to win and potentially.

00:24:01.540 This is what I've walked through people through a few times here as people start to catch on

00:24:06.040 to this.

00:24:06.440 I've heard I've heard Charlie talk about it now as well as Charlie Kirk, that Pennsylvania's

00:24:10.800 motor voter law has told this rule that Josh Shapiro has put forward where it's not

00:24:17.780 not just universal ballots.

00:24:19.960 Now it's universal registration.

00:24:21.460 When you go to get your your driver's license renewed, you are automatically registered to

00:24:27.180 votes.

00:24:27.840 And guess what?

00:24:28.660 Those new registrants at the motor voter are breaking red.

00:24:33.860 They're all breaking red.

00:24:36.340 Pennsylvania is breaking red.

00:24:38.560 Now, this is the trick, though, because you're taught these this.

00:24:42.020 It's amazing.

00:24:42.740 I remember when I got a phone call from someone who works up there still that that I worked

00:24:46.460 with many moons ago and he was talking about this going on.

00:24:49.260 The issue then is is that rich.

00:24:51.280 These are the people that you've been talking about for a year.

00:24:53.860 The no propensity voter, the people that aren't checked in the politics.

00:24:57.440 So that means if you're not registered to vote, that means you either haven't registered

00:25:00.920 in the last four years or possibly never registered at all to vote.

00:25:04.880 Yeah, that means, though, you've got no culture of voting.

00:25:09.500 You've got no history of voting.

00:25:11.080 It's not.

00:25:11.500 No, yeah, that's right.

00:25:12.820 What do they need to do then to reach those types of people?

00:25:17.900 Yeah, this is obviously not just Pennsylvania.

00:25:19.460 That's everywhere.

00:25:20.460 That's every.

00:25:21.140 Yeah, that's a very complicated question, but I would sum it up with I would answer and

00:25:25.780 sum it up like this.

00:25:27.320 Republicans need something that they have been missing for a very long time.

00:25:30.920 Democrats vet much, much better at this.

00:25:33.300 They need to do true relationship building with these people.

00:25:36.060 All right.

00:25:36.360 So instead of cold, you know, door walks, cold calls through phone banks, they need a more

00:25:43.700 personal approach.

00:25:44.660 And the good news for them is there are a handful of groups that we know and, you know,

00:25:49.200 talking with that are doing that.

00:25:51.240 So it's much easier when let's say, Jack, I work with you.

00:25:54.460 You know me for a while. 0.97

00:25:55.620 We shoot the you know what at the water cooler and I'm constantly talking trash about Biden.

00:25:59.880 It's so much easier to use and leverage your supporters and your activists and get them

00:26:05.440 to do it on a more personal level, give them access to that information.

00:26:09.200 And they have got to convince these people and Trump will play a huge part in this, that

00:26:13.980 their vote actually does matter.

00:26:15.720 So when we have researched these people, the number one thing we hear is the system is

00:26:19.960 rigged and my vote doesn't count.

00:26:22.140 Trump is, you know, there's a lot of research.

00:26:24.820 Yeah, there's a lot of research.

00:26:26.980 I hear it every time, every time, every time.

00:26:29.720 And there's a lot of research to suggest they do listen to leaders.

00:26:32.760 That video Trump did last week was so important when he came out and he said, you know, vote

00:26:37.060 anyway, vote by mail.

00:26:38.200 That's good.

00:26:38.620 That's fine to vote on election day.

00:26:40.160 That's fine.

00:26:40.640 Whatever.

00:26:40.880 Just vote.

00:26:41.620 Make sure you vote.

00:26:42.480 They will believe Donald Trump because we have done so many interviews with these people

00:26:46.400 and we have said, who would motivate you?

00:26:48.780 Donald Trump.

00:26:49.480 Nobody else.

00:26:50.660 Who would you, who do you believe?

00:26:52.320 Who would, who could get you to vote?

00:26:54.140 Donald Trump.

00:26:54.980 So it's got to come from him.

00:26:56.880 It's got to come from him.

00:26:58.240 Let me say this.

00:26:59.320 This is why I've advocated for the return of the Trump ground offices because a Trump ground

00:27:04.940 office isn't just, you know, a place for people to work like in a traditional Republican sense.

00:27:10.120 It's like, oh, you've got a couple of staffers.

00:27:12.060 They're making like six figures that, you know, and not really doing much.

00:27:14.820 No, you make them like Trump centers where people can come in these key areas and you

00:27:22.240 open the doors and you've got whatever the free food is.

00:27:25.780 If it's Philly, you know, you got, you got Wawa hoagies and, and, and coffee the entire

00:27:31.760 time or you're in sheets country, you got sheets, et cetera, it's fully stocked.

00:27:35.740 You can, you can volunteer.

00:27:37.260 You don't have to volunteer, but you can, um, you know, that's available.

00:27:40.720 There's signup sheets, et cetera, but you're constantly holding events and you're reaching

00:27:44.680 out to local people and you're saying, and you're becoming an institution in that area.

00:27:49.340 And then you could even have mini rallies where you bring a bunch of people together.

00:27:53.580 And then what does Trump do?

00:27:54.680 Maybe Trump calls in, maybe Don jr calls in.

00:27:57.380 This is a way of taking that idea of these, of these offices.

00:28:02.560 And instead of looking at them as ways to, you know, generate money the way that, you

00:28:07.460 know, the typical party user, the old RNC used to why not look at them as Trump community

00:28:12.560 centers, Trump community centers.

00:28:14.900 That's what they should be called.

00:28:16.380 Jack, that is exactly what I'm talking about.

00:28:19.820 Have them have access.

00:28:21.080 We've been building these low prop, no prop lists.

00:28:23.680 Believe me, when they come and they will give them access to those lists that we've put

00:28:28.340 together and they will look at them and they will see, Oh my God, my brother-in-law doesn't

00:28:31.720 vote.

00:28:32.000 I'm going to go bust his chops to make sure he gets his ballot in. 1.00

00:28:34.740 Like this is the way we're, this is what Republicans have been missing for years.

00:28:38.580 They have no personal approach in Florida.

00:28:40.780 I used to watch the Obama campaign come and barbecues in people's houses and the projects

00:28:45.660 Jack, it was amazing.

00:28:47.540 Exactly.

00:28:49.380 They were in the hair salons.

00:28:51.160 They were in the nail places, right?

00:28:52.680 Hey guys, brought your donuts.

00:28:54.440 We did this.

00:28:55.120 Don't forget.

00:28:55.680 Stop by over here.

00:28:56.740 We're having barbecues.

00:28:57.760 Believe me, they came, they brought their uncle and their 10 brothers and sisters.

00:29:02.300 I mean, that's how it worked. 1.00

00:29:03.800 And you could not beat that with a cold call phone bank garbage operation or a stupid ad. 1.00

00:29:10.080 You paid $50 million to run on TV. 1.00

00:29:12.520 They're going to tune it right out because already they know that you are with them in their community

00:29:17.980 and that they have your, you have their back, you have their interests and they know there's

00:29:21.960 a face to it.

00:29:22.800 They can put a name to a face to the name that they're speaking with.

00:29:26.280 It's not just some random phone banker who says, Hey, did you get your ballot in?

00:29:29.740 Hey, believe me, your vote matters.

00:29:31.600 Trust me, go vote.

00:29:32.600 They don't.

00:29:33.000 No, I love this.

00:29:34.380 I'm going to be building on this idea that this, this idea that, that we've come up with

00:29:38.480 here, Trump community centers, where you go to build community over making America great.

00:29:46.360 Again, you're breaking bread.

00:29:48.180 You're having food.

00:29:49.360 You're meeting people.

00:29:50.380 You're, this is how I got started in politics.

00:29:52.500 It was just going to events and, you know, meeting people and doing stuff like this.

00:29:57.400 But, but there's always, you know, there's always that added edge of like, well, how many

00:30:00.800 calls did you make today?

00:30:01.780 How many, how many doors do you knock on?

00:30:03.160 You can have that, right?

00:30:04.220 Have that as well.

00:30:05.040 But also just offer those energy, like you just said, barbecues, parties, we're in the

00:30:10.940 summer.

00:30:11.420 Memorial day weekend is coming up.

00:30:13.340 Why wouldn't your office be opening up on Memorial day?

00:30:17.100 If you build it, they will come.

00:30:21.080 Rich Farris, last minute, brother.

00:30:23.740 Yeah, man.

00:30:24.440 Thanks for having me as always.

00:30:27.700 Where can people follow you?

00:30:52.620 We'll be right back with the great Eric Prince.

00:30:57.740 Where is Jack?

00:31:00.100 Where is Jack?

00:31:02.420 Where is he?

00:31:03.700 Jack, I want to see you.

00:31:07.360 Great job, Jack.

00:31:08.800 Thank you.

00:31:09.580 What a job you do.

00:31:11.000 You know, we have an incredible thing.

00:31:12.360 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad.

00:31:14.480 But we have guys, and these are the guys that should be getting Pulisic.

00:31:18.180 All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are very excited now and honored to bring on Eric Prince joining Human Events Daily live from an undisclosed location.

00:31:30.740 But Eric, you're someone who's been at the forefront of major geopolitics, particularly in the Middle East.

00:31:37.960 What we've seen over the last 24 to 48 hours, this situation with the first the loss of the helicopter and then the confirmation of the death of the president of Iran and numerous members of the highest levels of their government.

00:31:52.880 What does this mean geopolitically going forward for the region?

00:31:57.840 There is already set to be a change of power, as the Supreme Leader does have cancer and was, I think, set to be replaced and voted on.

00:32:08.140 So there's certainly a chance of some kind of internal power struggle or perhaps was done by the M.E.K., an internal opposition group to the regime.

00:32:18.020 I would say the likelihood of it being an external hit, meaning a Israeli or U.S. or someone sponsored hit, is exceedingly unlikely.

00:32:26.400 Honestly, my educated guess would come from the fact that when you look at the rescue pictures, they're walking in heavy fog and rain.

00:32:38.580 And I actually happen to be driving into Los Angeles on the morning that Kobe Bryant's helicopter smashed into the side of a mountain at full speed.

00:32:48.680 And if it's one thing the Iranians would suffer from, from all the sanctions, is that they have not a good supply of park, not a great supply of maintenance. 0.95

00:32:59.160 And they probably don't have access to something called PAWS, rain awareness warning system, which pilots would refer to as the bitch box. 0.97

00:33:09.480 Because if you're too low to the ground, you're descending too fast, it'll say, pull up, pull up, pull up now.

00:33:15.000 Or if you're nearing rain, it'll say, terrain, terrain.

00:33:20.720 I would almost guarantee they didn't have that on that aircraft.

00:33:24.020 And so flying in what were clearly awful conditions, I think they drove it right into the side of a mountain with all the passengers on board.

00:33:32.480 I don't know if it was a Bell 412 or if it was an MI-17.

00:33:36.840 I've seen pictures of him flying around in both types of helicopters.

00:33:39.780 So we don't know what type it was.

00:33:41.280 I really can't tell from the wreckage.

00:33:42.620 But I would say, like Colby Bryant, it was bad aviation that took his life.

00:33:51.840 Now, that being said, though, one of the questions that I've been...

00:33:55.280 That video is in a Bell 412.

00:33:57.000 Sorry, the video that you just played was definitely a Bell 412.

00:33:59.820 Actually, an American name.

00:34:00.480 Play that again, guys?

00:34:01.860 Put that back up for Eric?

00:34:06.480 They're going to pull it up here in a second.

00:34:09.720 The question...

00:34:10.720 Oh, here it is.

00:34:11.260 Here it is.

00:34:12.620 Yeah, that video is definitely taken inside of a Bell 412.

00:34:15.780 That's an American-made utility helicopter typically used for the oil and gas industry.

00:34:21.080 I'm not sure how they'd be legally buying parts for that.

00:34:23.840 But obviously, they do well enough to put their president on.

00:34:27.460 But their pilots look like they drove it in the side of a mountain.

00:34:30.420 Well, Eric, this is the question that a lot of people have been asking me.

00:34:35.260 My phone blew up yesterday, as I'm sure yours did as well.

00:34:37.800 Not physically, of course.

00:34:39.280 Unless, of course, you wanted it to blow up.

00:34:40.760 The question is, if this is the president, all right, those are going to be some of the top pilots that they've got in Iran.

00:34:50.420 That's got to be the aircraft that is the most well-maintained in the entire Islamic Republic.

00:34:55.620 Should we be asking those kind of questions about whether or not this wasn't just a pilot error, aviation, or a maintenance issue?

00:35:04.900 Sure. If it wasn't that, then it's either going to be the MEK, or it could even be an internal power struggle between people that are posturing effectively for the throne.

00:35:18.100 But the real—and this guy, the president that died, it's the head of state.

00:35:23.260 It's not the real end-all, be-all power like the supreme leader is.

00:35:26.640 And the president, the deceased, was certainly, I would say, the odds-on favorite to be the next supreme leader of Iran.

00:35:35.400 And with his track record of marauding against the citizens, having killed and executed thousands of them,

00:35:43.440 there could easily be the case made that someone got after them.

00:35:47.380 But why I think it was not sabotage is the chances of trying to do sabotage and timing it so that the weather is perfectly awful at the same time you're going to do your sabotage.

00:35:59.940 That's a very hard—that is a needle upon a needle to try to thread, and that's a tough one.

00:36:07.440 That's absolutely right.

00:36:08.580 Looking at the—and you would know, certainly—looking at the regional picture, though, what should we be looking for as Iran's regime responds to this?

00:36:20.780 Do you predict that they'll go into a period of inactivity, or could they potentially be looking to make it look as though it will be business as usual and perhaps get more aggressive in the near term?

00:36:32.720 I would say worse than that.

00:36:35.760 There will be people posturing for credibility and street cred amongst themselves, who is going to be the most aggressive, who is going to carry on, really, almost the legacy of Qasem Soleimani and the rest of the really bad actors that surround the power structure in Tehran.

00:36:51.960 Because, remember, you have the Guardian Council, which effectively is a board over the supreme leader.

00:36:59.720 Maybe somewhat of a check and balance on their power, but really, it's the supreme leader and the head of the IRGC that calls the shot, just like the—almost like the Fuhrer and the head of the Gestapo did during the Nazi Reich. 0.62

00:37:16.920 And you see amazing similarities between those two, equally hated by the rank-and-file people of the country, the power structure that enriches themselves at the expense of everyday people.

00:37:28.660 And really, from the women's life freedom protests, to students, to environmentalists, to labor unions, to other different ethnic minorities, the Iranian regime is exceedingly unpopular with its own people.

00:37:45.140 And, you know, when you think about from 2009, I would say that the Arab Spring, all the protests throughout the Middle East, started in Iran amongst the Iranian people, who are sick of their regime and want freedom.

00:38:02.280 They want a lot more of a traditionally liberal, free society.

00:38:07.260 When you look at pictures, pre-1979, the women were wearing a skirt, they were drinking beer, listening to music, and it was much more of a freewheeling, independent-thinking society.

00:38:20.820 And the mullahs have really put them on an opposite track, and that is in historic opposition to the way the Iranian people really want to live and conduct their lives. 0.62

00:38:30.140 So I would not be surprised if there's an enormous amount of hate.

00:38:34.720 There's a lot of cheering that went on for the death of this guy.

00:38:39.220 But I would still put the odds on it being a weather-related incident, weather-slash-pilot error, not a conspiracy.

00:38:50.260 But, because remember, a helicopter is like 34,000 pieces of metal, bolted, strapped, welded together, actively trying to shake themselves apart.

00:39:01.840 So there's a lot of things that can go wrong in a helicopter, and they just don't glide very well.

00:39:05.440 And that's actually a huge question, though, that I have.

00:39:10.940 And I know we have a break coming up in a couple of minutes, but I'd like to get into it.

00:39:14.960 Because really, so you've seen, so Soleimani's been gone for a few years now.

00:39:19.380 IRGC leadership has been restructured since then.

00:39:23.420 Obviously, the president leaving, there's going to be a huge reshuffling.

00:39:25.960 The death of the supreme leader has always been a time for internal power struggles within Iran.

00:39:31.480 Do you think there's another Soleimani or Soleimani type on the horizon there?

00:39:37.960 Well, remember that the IRGC head of all their operations in Lebanon was just clipped within the last two weeks by the Israelis,

00:39:47.820 which led to that exchange of missiles into each other's countries.

00:39:52.000 So apparently the Israelis felt strongly enough about that target to risk that level of provocation to take him out.

00:40:00.120 So, look, Soleimani was a very unusual character, because he was a combination of like an Otto Skorzenny,

00:40:06.820 Heinrich Himmler, and Joseph Goebbels all rolled into one guy.

00:40:10.060 Extremely important to the regime.

00:40:12.260 His loss, they still haven't fully recovered from.

00:40:15.900 I'm glad the Israelis took out that guy a few weeks ago. 1.00

00:40:18.500 And again, it's such a miss from the Obama administration and the Biden administration that they've never really sided with the Iranian people.

00:40:29.380 Just the diplomatic statements that came out and say, we support women's rights in Iran, we support people's actual right to vote.

00:40:37.060 But, you know, it seems the maybe the administration here in the states welcomes the Guardian Council controlling who can go on the ballot,

00:40:47.880 kind of like the Biden administration has been trying to do to their political opponent, Donald J. Trump.

00:40:53.960 Amen. All right.

00:40:54.900 Be right back.

00:40:55.680 Bombshell interview here with Eric Prince, walking us through all the shakeups and shakedowns within the Iranian regime.

00:41:03.040 Stay tuned.

00:41:03.340 Be right back.

00:41:03.740 Human Events editorial board, this case is a joke.

00:41:13.420 Ashton Kutcher is going to pop and left to tell us that we've been pumped.

00:41:23.220 Jack, we're back live, Human Events Daily.

00:41:25.480 We're speaking now with Eric Prince, exclusive interview.

00:41:29.400 Eric was talking about how there is going to be a huge shakeup power struggle in Iran, more than likely, not just because of the death of this president,

00:41:38.200 but also because of the impending bad health and then death of the current supreme leader.

00:41:45.620 Eric, this is my question.

00:41:46.620 Given Iraq's current status, the fact that they've been getting schwacked, they got hit up in Lebanon, which led to, of course, this missile exchange between Israel and Iran,

00:41:56.760 the first time we've ever seen a direct missile exchange between the two countries.

00:42:00.420 Usually it's, as you well know, these proxy fights that go on between the two of them.

00:42:04.980 Do you see escalation along those lines where we actually see more state-on-state violence and this thing bubbles over into a more of a regional conflict,

00:42:13.400 as many people have been warning?

00:42:16.400 Or do you think that it will stay at that proxy level?

00:42:18.960 I think it will resort to a proxy-type fight because when the Iranians responded to the hit on this so-called diplomatic facility in Lebanon

00:42:33.580 where they schwacked this IRGC guy, the Iranians launched 230-type devices from Iran, from Yemen, from Iraq, 0.80

00:42:46.380 all headed towards Israel, I think 98% or 99% of them were shot down.

00:42:52.600 And the Israelis responded to that with a very specific hit, not on a nuclear facility,

00:42:58.800 but on an Iranian facility right next to the nuclear facility, which means, hey, we can smack you still in your nuclear facilities 0.70

00:43:06.160 right next to your state-of-the-art S-400 Russian air defense system.

00:43:10.740 And they did that as kind of a last warning shot to say we can still touch you anywhere we want to

00:43:15.920 and you really can't do anything about it.

00:43:17.440 So I think the Iranian regime ends up looking weak after that exchange,

00:43:22.280 and so I think they'll go back to their long-proven model of trying to hide behind surrogates.

00:43:29.320 The Houthis will still be ravaging the Red Sea and shutting off, continuing to close that off. 0.96

00:43:37.920 The Egyptians are losing $800 million a month from the Red Sea being shut off.

00:43:44.900 Iraq, you know, look, the popular mobilization forces, the Hashdashabi, effectively like the Hezbollah of Iraq,

00:43:52.220 controlled by Iran, paid for by the Iraqi government, armed with American weapons.

00:43:56.840 They will continue to do bad things there, and eventually they're going to drive the United States out of Iraq. 1.00

00:44:02.240 So the use of surrogates by the Iranians, they're pretty good at it, 1.00

00:44:07.400 and the U.S. is not particularly good at pushing back in a clear and convincing way to make it stop.

00:44:14.700 That said, when we're looking at the wider or, I guess, acuter Israel-Gaza conflict,

00:44:19.900 we see ICC has put out these, you know, prosecutions or warrants for Netanyahu and the head of Hamas.

00:44:28.080 I'm not sure that anything's actually going to come of that other than a few press releases,

00:44:31.560 but when it comes to the actual fighting that we're tracking on the ground,

00:44:35.540 do you think that we're going to see peace before the election,

00:44:38.140 and what role will it play as we move into these debates?

00:44:43.320 I think the administration is pushing hard to try to settle the Ukraine fight by August.

00:44:50.300 I would predict some kind of freezing of the lines or some kind of a ceasefire called,

00:44:57.820 because they have to unburden themselves and try to scrape out not even a win, but at best a draw.

00:45:05.560 I think in Gaza, the IDF will continue to struggle because they can't clear out RAFA, 1.00

00:45:12.180 not with that many civilians on the surface.

00:45:13.800 I think you have absolutely political paralysis.

00:45:19.220 The Netanyahu administration can't even conduct a full-on war cabinet meeting anymore

00:45:24.820 without it breaking down into a shouting mat.

00:45:28.320 That's the level of tension between Netanyahu and Gallant.

00:45:33.460 So I don't see the Gaza situation being solved. 0.90

00:45:36.760 It'll probably go down to a lower boil.

00:45:39.540 I don't see the Hezbollah guys fully lighting off. 1.00

00:45:43.800 That would be a real threat if they did, because Hamas had tens of thousands of rockets

00:45:48.840 that they launched at Israel, but the Lebanese Hezbollah have hundreds of thousands,

00:45:54.080 and it would become overwhelming even for the Iron Dome

00:45:57.480 and the other defensive systems the Israelis have in place.

00:46:00.520 And so they would sustain a lot of civilian casualties,

00:46:03.540 and then they would have to respond and really annihilate all of southern Lebanon. 0.58

00:46:07.780 So I don't think Hezbollah knows that those consequences would come very hard,

00:46:14.280 to include even Arat Harek, which is kind of the Hezbollah neighborhood of Beirut.

00:46:18.960 And so I see things kind of calming down there to a low boil,

00:46:22.860 but certainly not getting to any kind of peace deal,

00:46:27.080 or there's not going to be any Appomattox moment with one side winning and one side surrendering.

00:46:31.580 So it's kind of like both fighters going back to their quarters and regrouping.

00:46:35.200 And so essentially, you kind of get back to a pre-October 7th situation.

00:46:43.540 It seemed to me that, as you say, that Netanyahu's plan going in 0.55

00:46:48.300 was to get rid of the political entity known as the Gaza Strip

00:46:52.140 and replace it with something that doesn't have anywhere near the level of autonomy.

00:46:56.260 But as you're getting into, it doesn't look like the military operations have gotten them that effect that he wanted.

00:47:02.780 And it also, it clearly seems like he's the one driving for more of these ground operations

00:47:07.460 into places like Rafa and into some of these strongholds.

00:47:10.820 And that's what's really driving a lot of the pushback.

00:47:12.980 Yeah, and the really sad thing is I gave them the option back in November

00:47:17.540 to really take the best of Texas horizontal drilling.

00:47:22.040 I had pumps lined up that would pump, 12,000 horsepower pump,

00:47:26.460 moving 60,000 gallons a minute, 1,000 gallons a second,

00:47:30.680 to flood the entire network of tunnels, the 300 miles of tunnels underneath Gaza.

00:47:36.020 PR-wise and humanitarian-wise, it would have been vastly more effective

00:47:41.840 because it would have destroyed all the weapons caches,

00:47:44.680 it would have prevented the enemy from using the tunnels for maneuver,

00:47:47.720 and it would have forced Hamas to move the hostages

00:47:50.780 because they don't really want dead hostages because they can't negotiate with them.

00:47:54.800 But it would have prevented, it would have negated the IDF using Mark 82s, 3s, and 4s,

00:48:03.240 big bombs dropped amongst civilians, which killed a lot of them,

00:48:07.220 and I would say sadly unnecessary.

00:48:11.640 And so who can complain about water, just water?

00:48:15.040 People have flooded basements.

00:48:16.620 We would have flooded out every underground Hamas fighter 0.82

00:48:20.060 because Hamas made it very clear the tunnels were for their defense.

00:48:24.160 They didn't really care about the civilians.

00:48:25.480 So I'd say the IDF walked into the trap that Hamas set for them 0.97

00:48:29.940 by bombing amongst civilians,

00:48:33.160 and I don't think they'd really thought about using water,

00:48:36.440 and I think even the Pentagon ultimately is who blocked it.

00:48:40.000 So it's yet more senior leadership fail.

00:48:43.780 We're just about out of time.

00:48:45.000 We've got to get you back on.

00:48:45.920 Where can people follow you?

00:48:48.240 They can follow me at realericdprince.

00:48:50.760 C-R-I-K, D as in Delta, Prince on X. 0.73

00:48:54.700 Make sure you're going to follow Eric Prince.

00:48:58.760 This guy knows it because this guy lived it.

00:49:01.200 I want to thank all our followers, number one on X.

00:49:03.820 Thank you to Rumble as well.

00:49:04.680 Ladies and gentlemen, you have my permission later.
