00:00:25.780 The Poso Daily Brief.

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

00:00:39.700 A commentator, international social media sensation and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:46.420 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.

00:00:50.040 24 hours after announcing the U.S. will send Ukraine weapons paid for by NATO allies.

00:00:55.760 President Trump warning they should not be used on Russia's capital.

00:01:00.000 Should Zelensky target Moscow or deeper into Russia?

00:01:03.120 No, he shouldn't target Moscow.

00:01:04.660 China's military is surging past its normal maritime spheres deep into the Pacific Ocean.

00:01:12.220 Western allies have called these moves provocative and a wake-up call.

00:01:17.160 Israel's military says that it has attacked the entrance gate of the Syrian military headquarters

00:01:21.620 in the capital Damascus.

00:01:23.560 This comes after reports of Israeli drones striking targets in the southern city of Sueda.

00:01:29.900 Israel has threatened to step up its involvement in Syria unless government troops pull back from the Sueda area.

00:01:36.740 Syrian government forces deployed there have been clashing with fighters from the Druze religious minority

00:01:42.640 after a ceasefire collapsed.

00:01:44.920 The alleged ringleader of what federal investigators are calling a criminal ecosystem is in custody.

00:01:50.760 Cesar Campos Reyes, who's facing several charges including bank fraud and money laundering, arrested just a few hours ago.

00:01:57.860 Now, federal agents have been looking for him after nearly 50 illegal immigrants were arrested

00:02:01.860 during a sweeping multi-agency immigration operation in six Alabama counties today.

00:02:07.560 In a notable break from President Trump, House Speaker Mike Johnson is calling for the Department of Justice

00:02:12.720 to release all of its information on Jeffrey Epstein.

00:02:16.480 This is the first time we've really seen in his second presidency, President Trump facing a reckoning,

00:02:21.920 significant pressure from his core supporters.

00:02:25.960 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, powered by you patriots

00:02:32.920 and all of your wonderful patriotic energy.

00:02:37.340 Today is July 16th, 2025, Anno Domini.

00:02:41.240 We're live here in Washington, D.C.

00:02:44.400 So, Jeffrey Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein, the man who will never die, the man who will never die.

00:02:51.740 See, a lot of people are asking, and of course I saw President Trump's Truth Social,

00:02:56.200 his comments earlier today in the Oval Office regarding this.

00:03:00.280 I also am told about an interview that he held with John Solomon, our colleague here at Real

00:03:06.440 America's Voice, which will air later tonight in the 6 p.m. hour, where he talks about releasing

00:03:12.900 any legitimate information that the government does have on Jeffrey Epstein.

00:03:18.840 And specifically, he mentions that's for the prosecutor to do.

00:03:22.800 So the question is, of course, does that mean that he supports the special prosecutor

00:03:27.020 that many of us have been calling for on Epstein?

00:03:29.960 But I want to get into a broader sense, okay?

00:03:33.000 The Epstein list was never about Epstein, the person, the man.

00:03:37.600 The man who was, by the way, brought to justice by the original Trump administration.

00:03:42.340 It was about everyone else involved who are perhaps still in positions of influence out in the world,

00:03:51.200 out in the world of business and tech and Silicon Valley, who knows?

00:03:55.620 That's why it matters.

00:03:57.460 Epstein may be dead, but his clients and his network isn't.

00:04:03.620 It could be all over.

00:04:05.340 We're talking Hollywood, banks, media,

00:04:09.740 perhaps even in positions of government or foreign government.

00:04:13.880 We don't know.

00:04:14.760 That's the point.

00:04:15.380 So at the end of the day, it is about the victims, 100%, and getting justice for them.

00:04:21.640 But on another level, it's about taking the fight to the deep state,

00:04:26.040 a deep state that has been the thorn in the side of MAGA since day one,

00:04:32.700 a deep state that's been going after President Trump since day one,

00:04:37.760 and a deep state which absolutely knows more than they're letting on, and they simply do.

00:04:45.920 We're going to have Mike Benz on soon to break this down even further to talk more about,

00:04:51.980 and we've done for years, investigations on Epstein here, and we will continue to do so.

00:04:59.240 This is Human Events Daily on Real America's Voice, where your voice is the one that matters.

00:07:18.000 All right.

00:07:18.640 Now, folks, we are very excited to have Mike Benz on here, the executive director of the Foundation Freedom Online.

00:07:25.800 Benz, you know, you've been someone who's, you know, you're pretty quiet about the Epstein case.

00:07:31.880 It's not really something that you've covered a lot.

00:07:34.420 Is there anything that you want to add here?

00:07:36.360 I mean, I know it's not really your bailiwick.

00:07:39.060 Oh, no.

00:07:39.880 I think I said, oh, no, I'm kidding, obviously.

00:07:42.840 Listen, the reason that I'm like that the Epstein story.

00:07:45.800 This idea that people are trying to tie it to President Trump I think is the opposite way to look at it because I think what people are trying to do is actually see where the web goes to the people that we know or, excuse me, don't know that are associated already because President Trump's role in this has been looked into.

00:08:04.660 And actually, as far as I can tell, he's the only one who comes out actually smelling pretty good.

00:08:09.780 Well, if you remember, what was it, 2015, 2016, when in a public interview, I think it was even on a, maybe not the debate stage, but, you know, that quote where Trump says he's asked about, I think, Bill Clinton or Hillary.

00:08:25.380 And he says, well, he's going to have a problem with a little guy named Jeffrey Epstein.

00:08:31.240 And, yeah, I mean, Trump was using, you know, the Epstein stuff is a sword against, you know, the Clinton family when he ran for president.

00:08:41.900 So, you know, to call it a Democrat hoax.

00:08:43.960 Now, look, everyone knows what this is.

00:08:45.840 You can't, you know, Trump wants this to go away for a myriad of reasons.

00:08:53.000 And, you know, some of them are quite legitimate.

00:08:55.800 I have a very different take, I think, on the Epstein situation than most of the folks that I think are covering it in terms of what I think the nature of the intelligence relationship that Epstein had was.

00:09:11.060 And I think that, you know, I'm mostly focused on Epstein's role as a financial facilitator for governments and doing so in a covert fashion that would make this driven by intelligence rather than formal diplomatic channels.

00:09:25.840 And rather than on the kind of blackmail side of this, which is, I think, what Epstein is more commonly known as in, you know, in mega parlance.

00:09:36.220 And so I think that Trump's instincts of saying, well, listen, if we talk about all the different names here, it's going to there's not going to be any context report.

00:09:44.800 And they're going to be associated with child sex trafficking when really they didn't do anything wrong.

00:09:49.760 I think that is true.

00:09:52.480 The issue is, is the intelligence question is unanswered.

00:09:57.580 And I think very deliberately unanswered because of what it would entail to to reveal.

00:10:03.760 But I believe that the intelligence side of the equation when it comes to Epstein has primarily to do with Epstein's role as a financial fixer rather than as some sort of sexual blackmailer.

00:10:15.780 But I think that the Pan Bonde Justice Department probably does not know where to look for that information around around, you know, covert financing for covert action.

00:10:28.220 And so I think a lot of it is getting congested at the DOJ layer mixed with the fact that the national security community, as well as international partners, would not necessarily love that information to be made public.

00:10:41.960 Well, I think that's right.

00:10:43.220 And of course, you know, the intelligence community would love someone who would be able to essentially run their slush funds for them for black operations. 0.84

00:10:53.480 There's even been some reporting recently that Epstein, one of his original clients may have been Adnan Khashoggi, who was directly tied to Iran-Contra.

00:11:03.880 And of course, we all know about his son, Jamal Khashoggi.

00:11:08.620 And so right there, you're looking at ways for the intel community to be able to reach out, find a node.

00:11:14.760 They did this many times in the past with private industry where, you know, reach out and find some famous figure to be able to put something out for them so that it doesn't actually have to be on their books.

00:11:30.160 That's exactly right.

00:11:31.380 In fact, Iran-Contra was ran the exact way.

00:11:34.180 You know, Adnan Khashoggi was the guy who started the Iran-Contra affair.

00:11:38.680 He was the reportedly wealthiest man in the world at one point.

00:11:42.860 He was the richest arms dealer in world history.

00:11:47.120 He made three times more in commissions for Lockheed Martin than every other commissions agent for Lockheed Martin combined, over three times more than every other commissions agent combined.

00:11:59.080 He was the CIA's top arms dealer as well as illicit and covert arms dealer for all activity in the Middle East.

00:12:09.100 And he was the one, this Saudi billionaire who flew to the White House in 1983 to meet with Robert McFarlane, the national security advisor, to pitch the idea of having U.S. weapons shipped to Israel and then delivered to Iran and then have the proceeds siphoned off to support the Contras, Nicaraguan Contras, to hit two birds with one stone, two illegal activities.

00:12:36.760 There was an arms embargo on Iran, so that was illegal.

00:12:40.340 And Congress had passed the Boland Amendment banning funds going to the Nicaraguan Contras.

00:12:45.180 And so it had to be structured as a covert action.

00:12:47.520 This could not be formally done above the light, you know, in the light of day by the Reagan administration.

00:12:53.100 So they used basically Saudi and Israeli financiers and weapons dealers in order to knock out two birds with one stone.

00:13:05.980 And as you mentioned, in Epstein's own words, he said in 1987 that Adnan Khashoggi was one of his personal clients.

00:13:13.240 1987 was the middle of Iran-Contra.

00:13:17.320 That ran from 1983 to 1988.

00:13:20.460 So, and who was at the Justice Department at the time?

00:13:24.920 It was at the CIA at the time, actually.

00:13:27.300 It was Bill Barr.

00:13:28.520 Bill Barr started his career in the CIA.

00:13:31.480 He worked there for six years during Iran-Contra.

00:13:37.120 Bill Barr's father also worked for the CIA and, you know, basically had hired Jeffrey Epstein to the Dalton School while Donald Barr was headmaster there.

00:13:47.140 And then Bill Barr was the cover-up, according to the New York Times, you know, ran a headline calling Bill Barr the, quote, cover-up general of Iran-Contra because he was the one who blocked access to CIA records when there was an investigation into that covert action.

00:14:06.600 And then, you know, basically orchestrated the, you know, the pardons and cover-ups into that very affair that Jeffrey Epstein's whole network ran through, including Jeffrey Epstein himself.

00:14:18.160 A lot of this has to do with the fact that there was an, that in the late 1970s, when Iran, when the Iranian Revolution happened and the government that had been backed by both the U.S., Israelis and Brits within Iran,

00:14:32.980 when that government was toppled in Iran, combined with Jimmy Carter severing the capacities of the CIA, the, from, from 1979 through the 1980s, an offshore, private, self-sustained, stand-alone, covert financing operation network had to be tapped into in order to run operations that the CIA was getting in trouble for directly facilitating.

00:14:58.080 So they began to use these outside facilitators.

00:15:01.180 And Epstein was one of them.

00:15:02.500 This is, this explains Jace Greenberg at Bear Stearns.

00:15:04.780 This explains Edgar Bronfman, the family portfolio he ran there.

00:15:08.400 This explains Adnan.

00:15:10.040 It's going to be dug out.

00:15:11.060 Mike Benz, quick break, right back.

00:15:13.380 Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice.

00:15:18.980 You talk about influences.

00:15:20.740 These are influences.

00:15:22.620 And they're friends of mine.

00:15:25.000 Jack Prasovic.

00:15:26.560 Where's Jack?

00:15:27.460 Jack.

00:15:28.440 He's got a great job.

00:15:30.400 All right, Jack Prasovic, here we are back.

00:15:34.580 Live Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.

00:16:06.020 Until, of course, you get a collection or foreclosure notice.

00:16:08.740 So when's the last time you checked on your home title?

00:16:11.280 Well, probably never.

00:16:48.800 So I want to go back to Mike Benz now.

00:16:50.520 Mike, you were talking about all of these different nodes that roll up with Epstein.

00:16:57.300 I want to shift gears here.

00:16:58.560 We've got a couple of minutes left in this segment and go all the way through and talk about, look, there's this idea that a lot of us called for when we were down in Tampa.

00:17:07.180 I was there with Charlie.

00:17:08.140 I was there with Steve Bannon.

00:17:09.680 And a lot of us are pushing for a special prosecutor.

00:17:12.660 President Trump has said twice yesterday, and once he mentioned it even again today, we're told that he also said it as well in this pre-taped interview.

00:17:21.220 It's going to be with John Solomon.

00:17:22.600 It airs on Real America's Voice later tonight, 6 p.m., and I hope everyone is tuning in.

00:17:27.720 I know I certainly will be, to that, where he's calling for a special prosecutor and says, if there is legitimate information out there, let's release it.

00:17:36.220 So, Benz, I say we take that ball and run with it.

00:17:40.120 You know, we're talking about the criminal charges, but also you're talking about these financial operations that he was involved in, all of this information as well.

00:17:49.860 Yeah, that's exactly right.

00:17:51.620 So you could do it through a special prosecutor.

00:17:54.020 You could do it through a transparency working group.

00:17:56.260 Ed Martin, for example, is now running this weaponization task force within DOJ.

00:18:01.320 I think that that would also be an appropriate place to spearhead an investigation.

00:18:05.920 I think when you start looking into the Epstein story, what you see is a very, very technical, detail-laden story that laces its way through U.S. foreign policy, through Middle East foreign policy, through Western ally foreign policy, through North African country foreign policy.

00:18:29.520 I don't think Pam Bondi is, you know, with her, given all the other responsibilities that she has as the head of the U.S. Justice Department, is the person who, you know, is or should be the keeper of all, you know, I don't think she needs to be personally spearheading this sort of thing.

00:18:51.160 I don't think that, you know, she necessarily has the background experience or know-how in this particular thing.

00:18:59.720 What you need is somebody within DOJ who will be tasked with what to ask for, who will spend their time on this and the details of the case.

00:19:09.360 And what you need from Pam Bondi is basically the muscle applied in order to green light and make sure that documents are delivered to the task force or special prosecutor from the relevant agencies.

00:19:22.260 And so this is why I stress that Pam Bondi, as attorney general, has an office that reports directly to her.

00:19:29.920 It's called OPR, the Office of Professional Responsibility.

00:19:32.820 In November 2020, two weeks after Trump lost the 2020 election, but while Bill Barr was still running the Justice Department, an investigation that had taken, I think, something like, it was from February 2019 to November 2020.

00:19:53.720 So this is like, you know, a 21-month investigation that OPR led into the plea deal cut for Epstein and investigated Alex Acosta and his statements that Epstein, quote, belonged to intelligence and whether that played a factor into the plea deal.

00:20:10.220 Now, you're talking about a huge, sweeping, enormously lengthy investigation by the Justice Department OPR into this exact question.

00:20:20.280 Now, all we got in the 348-page report that Justice Department released, but then weirdly deleted from its website, even though you can find it through other channels.

00:20:33.240 In that 348-page report, there is a very limited hangout question which is asked.

00:20:39.440 First of all, there's no transcript.

00:20:40.620 There's a summary one-line description that OPR investigators asked Acosta, did you have knowledge that Epstein was an intelligence asset?

00:20:51.680 And Acosta told us the answer is no.

00:20:53.880 Well, that is not the right question to ask.

00:20:56.260 That question is because I don't think Epstein would have been an asset.

00:21:00.220 Financial fixers, financial facilitators almost never are.

00:21:03.780 I did a recent study into this, and eight out of ten financial fixers from that same era were not CIA assets.

00:21:13.120 There was no human intelligence 201 file on them.

00:21:16.320 They were never formally recruited.

00:21:18.180 What they were were winning cooperative contacts.

00:21:21.320 They were liaisons, facilitators.

00:21:23.180 They didn't work for the agency, but they worked with the agency to broker international deals that the State Department did not want to be seen as directly brokering.

00:21:32.260 And so you need to know what to look for.

00:21:36.020 So first of all, we need to see exactly what Acosta was asked and exactly what Acosta answered.

00:21:41.300 That way we know if the Justice Department has ever really looked into this before.

00:21:45.940 We also need, because OPR reports directly to Bill Barr and his then-deputy Jeffrey Rosen, who has his own strange history with Trump world,

00:21:53.380 We need to know if the Attorney General's office before Pam Bondi attempted to shape the inquiries into Epstein's intelligence ties.

00:22:02.020 Given that Bill Barr was the mop-up man for the Iran-Contra scandal for the CIA, which directly involved Epstein's networks,

00:22:10.000 you can immediately see why Bill Barr would want to shape the OPR investigation to ward off any attempt to ask the relevant questions.

00:22:17.520 We also need all the email traffic around the 2020 OPR investigation from the CIA's Office of General Counsel,

00:22:25.320 which is parked at the Justice Department in order to make sure that sensitive or classified information is disclosed in a way that does not reveal U.S. national secrets

00:22:37.140 and is basically the cover-up arm of the CIA.

00:22:40.220 We need to know if CIA OGR, the Office of General Counsel, CIA OGC, shaped that OPR investigation.

00:22:48.020 We need the transcript of what they actually asked about Epstein's intelligence ties and what Acosta actually answered.

00:22:54.640 And we need all the relevant files, records, emails, communications, tax messages from around Bill Barr, Jeffrey Rosen, and the OPR team to shape that inquiry.

00:23:03.940 It's as simple as that.

00:23:05.000 That can all be made public today.

00:23:08.620 That's literally right down the hallway at main justice from Pam Bondi, and that doesn't even require you to go into past CIA activity

00:23:16.000 and outside financiers from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s about the role that Epstein played.

00:23:22.280 Start there.

00:23:23.580 That can be done without a special prosecutor, although I think a special prosecutor would be fantastic.

00:23:28.700 But show us that you mean it when you say you're actually looking into it, because you could do this right now.

00:23:33.960 You can walk down the hallway.

00:23:36.900 Hey, Ben, Mike.

00:23:37.860 We've got to run.

00:23:38.900 That's just enough time, or just out of time, I should say, for this segment.

00:23:42.220 Mike Benz, always a wealth of information.

00:23:44.420 Go follow him.

00:23:44.980 Mike Benz, Cyber.

00:23:46.540 Bill America's Voice.

00:23:47.580 Where is Jack?

00:23:50.660 Where is Jack?

00:23:52.960 Where is he?

00:23:54.260 Jack, I want to see you.

00:23:57.900 Great job, Jack.

00:23:59.320 Thank you.

00:24:00.080 What a job you do.

00:24:01.520 You know, we have an incredible thing.

00:24:02.700 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad.

00:24:05.220 But we have guys, and these are the guys who should be getting policies.

00:24:10.680 All right, Jack, here we are back.

00:24:12.660 Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.

00:24:17.340 He's had the great Mike Benz on, and I think he's right.

00:24:21.320 I think he's absolutely right on this question of a special prosecutor.

00:24:25.620 I also think that he's got options on specifically things that the DOJ can do right now, today, to be able to get into this.

00:24:37.440 And really, really, this is something that I just have to say it's absolutely blown up in terms of our comments.

00:24:43.800 I'm looking at hundreds and hundreds of comments that are coming in right now regarding this, you know, people asking, people saying, you know, this is the one scandal that could unite the left and the right.

00:24:57.460 You know, we're getting that in.

00:24:59.560 Epstein is dead, but the web he operated within is very much alive.

00:25:03.360 And while many are only now awakening to the scale and depth of the network, it is clear that we are dealing with this not a partisan issue.

00:25:10.180 It crosses.

00:25:10.740 It's a crisis of elite power, protected by both parties and hidden behind closed doors.

00:25:14.760 And again, it's just comment after comment after comment, people saying, we want more.

00:25:20.360 We want more.

00:25:20.980 We want to see what's going on.

00:25:22.120 And I do think, you know, look, as I gave a speech about this down in Tampa, I certainly mentioned it there, among other things.

00:25:32.440 But I said that this isn't a story that's going to go away until people feel that there has been some accountability.

00:25:39.700 And I think that's what people want at the end of the day.

00:25:41.520 They're not, this isn't about people saying, oh, we're going to blame this person or that person because you didn't do this.

00:25:48.640 No, no, no, just stop.

00:25:50.340 This is about getting accountability for something that goes all the way back to the very beginning, the very origins of the MAGA movement.

00:26:01.440 This idea that our government is corrupt and has been working against us for other special interests.

00:26:09.420 And in this case, perhaps nefarious interests that the intelligence agencies and the intelligence community has gone far abroad of their remit, far abroad of whatever they were set up for in the first place.

00:26:23.880 And for folks trying to make sense of American foreign policy and, yes, even domestic policy choices over the last 30 plus years, this is an example.

00:26:43.720 It's an example of something that's come in.

00:26:46.400 Here's a message from John in Virginia.

00:26:50.960 For the life of me, I can't understand why President Trump is taking the approach he has towards the supporters for demanding full transparency about the Epstein file.

00:26:58.080 He's offended many who have expressed they no longer support him.

00:27:01.460 This will not be good for the 2026 midterms.

00:27:03.660 Many have said they will just not vote.

00:27:05.180 If this is a hoax, President Trump is, if this is the hoax, President Trump is claiming his attitude is spending political capital.

00:27:13.860 And that's just an email we got in at 1776 at humanevents.com.

00:27:17.580 But that really is following the tenor of most of the emails that I'm seeing here.

00:27:22.580 It can really sum that up where people are saying, wait a minute, you know, we were the ones who were brought in.

00:27:28.080 We were the ones who were asked about this.

00:27:30.180 By the way, and I'll, you know, I've reiterated this a number of times, but I was brought to the White House for a meeting.

00:27:39.220 And nobody said anything about Jeffrey Epstein to me until the Attorney General came in.

00:27:43.860 So, you know, this is where this all stems from.

00:27:46.980 This isn't stemming from some pent-up outrage.

00:27:51.240 You know, we were the ones who were brought in.

00:27:53.520 So, not the other way around.

00:27:55.200 And, yeah, I'm just reading comment after comment after comment on this.

00:27:59.280 And, of course, you know, this is, there's a lot of Trisand effect, I think, going on right here as well, where people are saying, you know, we want more.

00:28:07.980 We don't know what's going on.

00:28:09.320 And at the end of the day, though, I do think that those concerns will be heard.

00:28:14.840 I have hope they will.

00:28:16.580 I pray that they will.

00:28:18.220 And I trust that President Trump will do the right thing because, well, I've been in this movement for a decade at this point.

00:28:25.760 Certainly, it's changed my life in many, many ways.

00:28:32.320 And we are here now.

00:28:34.220 And look at where we were 10 years ago versus where we are now.

00:28:39.520 And it's just been an absolute sea change since President Trump came down from that escalator to where we are now.

00:28:47.440 And I'm also very honored, by the way, to be able to say that as we continue this, the main quest, the main quest fight against illegal aliens, illegal immigration. 0.55

00:28:59.100 I've always said that is the main quest, the main plot that we have here on the program.

00:29:03.880 Once again, Tricia McLaughlin, the Assistant Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, joining us.

00:29:10.020 Tricia, how are you?

00:29:12.260 Jack, I'm great.

00:29:13.360 I'm so sorry.

00:29:14.340 We've had tech issues on our side, but I wish I could see your face.

00:29:19.380 It's all right.

00:29:20.200 Well, yeah, it was nice being able to see you briefly while we were there at Turning Point in the Student Action Summit.

00:29:27.060 Secretary Noem's great speech and the great I think it was a real personal touch from her, you know, really coming in and praying for the safety of federal law enforcement and really all law enforcement officers, because even in the days since that speech or perhaps I'm guessing you guys probably knew more about this than was public at the time,

00:29:49.420 that we've seen more and more doxing, more and more targeted attacks on actual ICE employees regarding the situation at the California marijuana facility.

00:30:03.040 Jack, you're exactly right.

00:30:04.840 Right now, our ICE law enforcement are facing an 830 percent increase in assaults against them.

00:30:11.460 We're seeing that they're being shot at.

00:30:13.520 We saw that with that marijuana facility, which, as I know your listeners are likely aware, that's where we located 14 children, including 10 of which were unaccompanied, likely being exploited, trafficked, potentially slave or forced labor, just horrendous there.

00:30:32.080 But our law enforcement, they're the ones who rescued these innocent children.

00:30:36.920 And yet you have Gavin Newsom, AOC, Tim Walz, Mayor Wu out of Boston, you name it, a Democrat du jour who is likening ICE to the Gestapo and encouraging threats and assaults against them.

00:30:50.780 And so, you know, if you see a law enforcement officer, whether it be ICE or CBP or otherwise, thank them for their service because they are being targeted, their families are being doxed.

00:31:01.200 And we pray for their safety, but we're also working to make sure we prosecute to the full extent of the law those who do try to do harm to our law enforcement.

00:31:09.980 Now, if I can zoom in a little bit specifically on that case regarding the individual who was shooting at the ICE agents there in California, are there any updates on this identification apprehension?

00:31:25.680 I know there's been some other apprehensions recently, but has that one actually come down yet?

00:31:30.080 This one in particular, we have a $50,000 bounty on this guy's head by the FBI.

00:31:37.320 Our Homeland Security investigators are working hand in glove with the FBI to find this depraved individual.

00:31:46.300 We will find him, but I won't get ahead of any announcements out of the FBI on this one, Jack.

00:31:52.980 No, absolutely.

00:31:53.960 When it comes to these raids, you know, I have to look at these images and having focused on, you know, Antifa and left-wing agitprop groups in the past, when I see that many people showing up in order to try to obstruct one of these raids, it seems to me as though some information, those people don't just materialize in the middle of nowhere, all the way out on some farm all by themselves.

00:32:20.320 That takes planning, that takes coordination, that takes organization.

00:32:24.260 So it seems to me as though, is there a worry that somehow information about these raids is leaking before they take place?

00:32:32.920 Yeah, that's something that we're highly focused on, and we have seen in the past that leaked information gets out there, it gets to activist media, or it gets to these kinds of activists themselves.

00:32:46.660 We saw, you know, in Prairieland in Texas, that there was a group of 12 individuals who were wearing tactical gear, carrying rifles, and then went on to attack law enforcement.

00:33:00.920 What we're seeing are these highly coordinated attacks across the country, and Jack, I do think that there is a, you brought up Antifa and these very sophisticated organization coordination of attacks.

00:33:14.200 But I think the, you know, the mainstream problem of this, which is so disturbing, is that we have Democrat politicians who are trying to normalize violence against our law enforcement.

00:33:25.480 They totally ignore the fact that our law enforcement's being doxxed, that their family members are being targeted, that it's being put online where their spouses work, where their children go to school.

00:33:36.180 And this is in the face of them going after and trying to arrest highly sophisticated gang members like MS-13 or Trendy Aragua, terrorist organizations.

00:33:46.060 And these Democrat politicians are just handing on a silver platter intelligence to these vicious, violent gangs.

00:33:53.700 And so when we see all of this, unfortunately, it's something where I've warned for quite some time that the violent rhetoric is getting worse.

00:34:06.860 Shouldn't this be something, though, that the Democrats, you know, certainly they may not agree with the policies, certainly they may not agree with the politics, but you'd think on the question of violence, that would be something that they could all stand against, right?

00:34:18.020 Absolutely. No, absolutely. Jack, I'm very concerned that someone's going to get killed, that this doesn't stop.

00:34:27.200 We were, I remember at the start of this administration, probably two months in, we were seeing a 400 percent increase against our law enforcement.

00:34:35.520 And now we're at 830 percent increase. When does this stop?

00:34:40.040 When do the likes of Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass and Tim Walls and AOC start to condemn this? Is it going to take a death to do that?

00:34:50.060 And that's what's so disturbing is there are just a hellbent on the demonization and attacks.

00:34:56.740 And, you know, we didn't hear anything from Gavin Newsom after he lied about our enforcement operation, what he called a strawberry farm, which it wasn't.

00:35:05.540 And it was two marijuana facilities. And when the information came out about these 361 illegal aliens, that among them that were arrested were convicted rapists, convicted child molesters, drug traffickers, horrendous people who were working among children.

00:35:24.480 How is that not? That goes way beyond partisan politics. And it's just about basic humanity.

00:35:30.220 When it comes down to it, this really is about the victims in many of these cases.

00:35:37.280 And I know it's something obviously Tom Homan has spoken about quite a bit when you do have these child migrants who have been, you know, even even labor traffic or or worse. 1.00

00:35:49.420 It's something that he's talked about a number of times, because in many of these cases, when they come, they're so young.

00:35:54.240 They have no idea what's going on. And then they get wrapped up in organizations like this.

00:35:59.580 And and I do think that it's something where the media and the Democrats have been trying to paint it as, you know, ICE is some kind of they use this very heated rhetoric describing ICE agents.

00:36:09.220 But what they're actually doing is not only liberating the child victims, but also anyone who lives in one of these areas.

00:36:16.300 That's unfortunately being affected by MS-13 or one of these other groups.

00:36:19.680 Oh, exactly. These are not you would not want these criminals to be your neighbors.

00:36:26.600 And Jack, I think you hit the nail on the head. I think one of the greatest untold stories of the Biden administration and the humanitarian crisis that they manufactured at our southern border are those 300,000 plus children who were lost in the system.

00:36:42.880 So many of them, so many of them exploited, so many of them sex trafficked, so many of them labor trafficked.

00:36:48.340 And the administration now, their efforts to reunite those and put them in safe hands.

00:36:54.680 And so far, about 10,000 children have been located.

00:36:59.020 But, you know, the incompetence and the lack of organization really imperiled these children.

00:37:06.860 And it's been an uphill battle to try and reunite them.

00:37:10.520 But Secretary Nome and President Trump, they are, you know, very laser focused on this.

00:37:17.180 Now, one question that I get a lot in from my listeners, you know, we talked about the big, beautiful bill.

00:37:23.580 We talked about the big increase in the ICE budget.

00:37:27.220 Just in the last couple of minutes that we have you, can you tell us a little bit about how that new, you know, much bigger budget is going to be put to use?

00:37:34.700 Yes, this has been incredible for the Department of Homeland Security and our ability to really turbocharge arrest numbers.

00:37:43.900 Detention bed space has been a linchpin operationally to allow us to arrest and detain and eventually deport more illegal aliens. 0.96

00:37:54.340 And the fact of the matter is that this money from the big, beautiful bill is going to double our detention bed space so we can really put the numbers up as well.

00:38:03.180 I mentioned before, you know, the perils that our law enforcement is facing.

00:38:08.760 This is going to give them potential bonuses for our Border Patrol and ICE agents.

00:38:13.740 As well, we're going to be increasing our ICE enforcement officer workforce by about 50 percent.

00:38:19.720 So much more guys and gals on the ground to help with those arrests.

00:38:24.360 And then, I mean, think about things like the border wall.

00:38:27.300 It's going to help us get hundreds, if not thousands more mileage of border wall, as well as technology surveillance vehicles that we need to make sure we're keeping these numbers at the southern border at a historic low.

00:38:42.440 And having that full operational control.

00:38:45.600 Trisha McLaughlin, where can people go to follow you and get all updates from DHS?

00:38:50.280 Yes, absolutely. Follow me at Trisha, excuse me, at TrishaOhio on X and at DHSGov.

00:38:58.980 Give us a follow. We debunk the fake news media all the time.

00:39:03.860 And we're just bringing facts to the American people.

00:39:06.480 Jack, thank you for having me.

00:39:07.560 Oh, I love that DHSGov account.

00:39:09.700 It's becoming an absolute favorite of mine.

00:39:12.740 God bless, Trisha, your great patriot, as well as everyone else there at the Department of Human Security.

00:39:17.140 Jack is a great guy. He's written a fantastic book.

00:39:22.820 Everybody's talking about it. Go get it.

00:39:25.180 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.

00:39:29.100 And we're going to turn it around and make our country great to get to you.

00:39:32.300 Amen.

00:39:32.640 All right. Jack Posovic back here.

00:39:38.500 Human Events Daily.

00:39:40.180 Well, everybody keeps asking me.

00:39:41.520 They're saying, Poso, look, you know, you got the show.

00:39:44.300 You got Human Events.

00:39:45.120 But we want to hear from Solomon.

00:39:47.140 Solomon's got something.

00:39:48.200 He's got info.

00:39:48.980 It's blowing up online.

00:39:50.100 So it's all right.

00:39:50.520 Let's dig him up.

00:39:51.540 I know it's a little earlier than you're used to getting your John Solomon.

00:39:55.200 It will be live and full at 6 p.m., but he's here joining us for a special preview of his exclusive interview with President Trump, which was conducted this morning.

00:40:06.160 So this is before the Oval Office gaggle, which he held there.

00:40:11.480 John Solomon of Just the News joins us now.

00:40:14.060 John, tell us what you got.

00:40:15.840 Yeah, listen, this is the first time we've laid it out since the interview occurred this morning.

00:40:20.260 And everyone can see it at 6 o'clock.

00:40:21.560 But here's what he says.

00:40:23.020 The president only learned recently about the grand conspiracy case.

00:40:27.060 That's what I call it.

00:40:27.820 It's not the real name of it.

00:40:28.840 But the fact that Kash Patel had opened a conspiracy case treating the last decade of weaponization as an ongoing conspiracy, from clearing Hillary, pursuing Trump and Russiagate, trying to protect Hunter Biden, doing the Ukraine impeachment, protecting Biden from the Chinese plot to help him win the 2020 election.

00:40:48.500 The FBI turns a blind eye to that.

00:40:50.660 Joe Biden finds classified documents.

00:40:52.780 Oh, we better get a camera case on Donald Trump to negate that.

00:40:55.900 Looking at that as one ongoing conspiracy, which has a lot of benefits.

00:40:59.340 You can go back and charge old crimes in an ongoing conspiracy.

00:41:02.720 You can also take this case and move it out of Washington, D.C. and bring it to Florida, because one of the overt acts of the conspiracy would have been raiding Donald Trump's house.

00:41:12.160 The president didn't know about that because the FBI doesn't normally brief a president on things.

00:41:15.200 But when we broke that story, the president heard about it, learned about it, and he said, hey, I like the idea.

00:41:20.700 I think it's a good way of looking at what happened, and maybe we finally get some accountability because we don't get any.

00:41:25.900 And then, without any prompting, without me even asking yet, he says, I also think if that has a special prosecutor, that prosecutor should just look at anything credible about Jeffrey Epstein.

00:41:35.660 And let's get this resolved.

00:41:36.660 Let's get the American people the most transparency.

00:41:39.300 Now, what does that mean?

00:41:40.580 If there's a special prosecutor, this gets out of Pambani's hands.

00:41:44.200 It goes to an independent person.

00:41:45.980 They look at it.

00:41:47.100 They release what they can about it, and they tell the American people whatever the grand jury can squeeze out of it.

00:41:52.240 Now, I've done tons of reporting on Epstein.

00:41:54.820 The Wall Street Journal and I have probably been the most prolific of doing this going back to 1817.

00:41:59.660 Miami Herald did some great work, too.

00:42:01.060 I think people are going to be disappointed what's in the government files, not because there probably wasn't good stuff to be had, but because the government did a crappy job investigating this.

00:42:12.060 The Bush Justice Department in 07 and 08 could have gotten Jeffrey Epstein and made one of the largest scandals in American history.

00:42:19.380 They gave him a pass, and they did it in the most cowardly ways.

00:42:23.240 Let the state do it.

00:42:24.120 They took a pass, and they didn't take the time to go get the sort of things that would have been explosive evidence, like a ledger or an accounting of what happened.

00:42:34.900 And so Trump finally starts pursuing in 19.

00:42:38.180 The FBI says Epstein kills himself in the jail.

00:42:41.440 I think even when a special prosecutor gets into it, the government did such a poor job on this.

00:42:46.360 We're all going to be a little disappointed.

00:42:47.960 That said, the fact that the president is willing to let a special prosecutor look at this tells you that he wants the base, he wants all of America to have confidence in the final findings.

00:42:58.520 And I think that this is a big moment, a big announcement for President Trump.

00:43:02.700 Organic.

00:43:03.420 So it happened.

00:43:04.040 I followed him.

00:43:04.480 So you sure you're saying you're okay with a special prosecutor looking at Epstein?

00:43:07.720 Yep, that's what I'm saying.

00:43:08.520 Let's go do it.

00:43:09.300 Let's also look at everything else.

00:43:10.860 Because, hey, Democrats, you want a special prosecutor on Epstein?

00:43:13.100 You got it.

00:43:13.620 But we're also going to look at Hillary and we're going to look at James Comey and John Brennan and Jack Smith.

00:43:18.360 And so I think the president has laid out something that I assume Pam Bondi will quickly follow up on.

00:43:24.000 It's a big moment.

00:43:26.840 So, John, I want to just get this straight for everyone.

00:43:29.840 So, President Trump, he's talking about this special prosecutor, which, of course, he references earlier in the Oval Office as well as yesterday.

00:43:37.980 He was on a couple of these tarmac gaggles where he says that's for the prosecutor to do.

00:43:43.240 Right.

00:43:43.780 And that's what you said was going on War Room.

00:43:45.720 So that's in reference to a special prosecutor.

00:43:48.140 Now, it's possible that this special prosecutor could also be looking at all of these in conjunction with this broader conspiracy.

00:43:55.140 So would all of this fit into a scope memo for that prosecutor?

00:43:59.180 Of course, this goes back to what we remember from Special Counsel Mueller and the scope memo all the way back in 2017, 2018 regarding his special investigation.

00:44:09.940 Yeah, let me reverse engineer it.

00:44:11.340 There's not an open case on Epstein right now.

00:44:13.440 So the open predicated case at the FBI is the grand conspiracy, Hillary Clinton to Jack Smith.

00:44:18.580 Okay?

00:44:19.380 Right.

00:44:19.640 As part of that, what the president is saying, expand the scope and let Epstein be part of this, too.

00:44:24.680 And let's give the American people confidence, independence.

00:44:27.240 Let's get a good person there and let's do that.

00:44:29.660 So the predicated case is already open.

00:44:32.520 That's something that was news that broke on Monday.

00:44:34.920 You snap in Jeffrey Epstein and you let an independent person, you get this out of Pam Bondi's hand where there were several false starts and mistakes made and you let everybody go.

00:44:43.720 And I think there are two places we haven't been looking at.

00:44:46.320 The FBI's documents are all in Pam Bondi's hands.

00:44:48.840 She should release them all.

00:44:49.740 There are two places that haven't been tapped.

00:44:52.200 One is the sealed grand jury proceedings in New York.

00:44:55.920 That is not something Pam Bondi on her own can release, but she should make the request to the judge and say, judge, we believe it's in the public interest.

00:45:03.560 Please unseal all the evidence.

00:45:05.600 The judge has already unsealed some things like the address book a couple of years ago, which was part of my reporting two years ago.

00:45:11.560 But that's one area that we don't focus on.

00:45:14.680 That's an important piece of evidence that's still sitting under lock and key.

00:45:17.560 Pam could start the process. 1.00

00:45:19.700 The judge has to sign off on it.

00:45:21.380 The second area is the CIA.

00:45:23.240 Now, I've done a lot of reporting.

00:45:26.220 Jeff Epstein wasn't a knock.

00:45:28.400 He wasn't a controlled asset or agent of the CIA.

00:45:31.980 But he did have a handful of interactions with the CIA.

00:45:35.300 And I think John Ratcliffe should just release that file.

00:45:38.780 Epstein's dead.

00:45:40.060 What harm is in letting the American people see how the CIA interacted with Epstein on a couple occasions?

00:45:45.420 It's a small file based on my reporting.

00:45:48.360 But those are two places we aren't talking about.

00:45:50.360 Those are two gold mines.

00:45:51.500 I think the American people would be happy to get them.

00:45:54.500 John, once again, where can people go to see this interview in full?

00:45:58.460 Right after Steve Bannon, 6 o'clock, Just the News, no noise, right here on Real America's Voice.

00:46:02.160 And Just the News, we're going to put out that story in a couple minutes that I just told you about.

00:46:06.700 Congrats, John.

00:46:07.800 Incredible, exclusive.

00:46:09.460 And I can't wait to watch it myself.

00:46:11.680 Folks, there you go.

00:46:24.080 Thank you.
