On today's show: President Trump meets with the mayor of San Francisco to discuss the ongoing government shutdown, the impact of the NBA All-Star Game, and the latest on the situation with the Los Angeles Lakers. Plus, a look at the latest in the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China.
00:03:09.060Thanks, Karen. On the Russian sanctions again, how much pressure do you think this sanctioning these two Russian companies actually puts on President Putin?
00:03:17.820Because the last administration sanctioned two other oil companies.
00:03:20.640So how much kind of my pressure is this really?
00:03:22.100A lot. If you read the sanctions and look at them, they're pretty hefty.
00:03:26.180And I saw some international news out of China this morning that they're scaling back oil purchases from Russia.
00:03:32.160We know India has done the same at the request of the president.
00:03:34.840The president has also pushed European countries, our allies, to please stop their purchases of Russian oil as well.
00:05:57.960Thanks, Caroline. Back to the ballroom, I'm afraid.
00:06:00.960I just wanted to ask, because in July the White House said that it would cost $200 million.
00:06:06.700Yesterday the President said $300 million. Is $300 million now the operative figure, and why did it go up by so much?
00:06:13.440$300 million is the figure, and again, it's not going to cost the taxpayers a dime.
00:06:17.860So we look forward to this project continuing, and we will continue to keep everyone apprised on it.
00:06:22.900Perhaps the President will even bring you all out to see it one day at the appropriate time.
00:06:27.040You're also going to hear from the President directly in about an hour.
00:06:30.000He's hosting an event with the Homeland Security Task Force.
00:06:32.800This was a newly created federal task force that the President and his law enforcement team have put together.
00:06:37.840I would encourage you all to tune in to the remarks.
00:06:40.080They have really done a tremendous job at refocusing how federal law enforcement and local law enforcement work together.
00:06:46.760There will be some local sheriffs and law enforcement officials in attendance as well,
00:06:51.060and they'll be talking about the success and the many arrests they have made of drug traffickers and cartel members all across the country by just simply working together.
00:07:39.180President Trump is imposing harsh new sanctions on Russia's two largest oil companies, wrapping up pressure on Russian President Putin to end his war in Ukraine.
00:07:48.580The entire East Wing is expected to be demolished as soon as this weekend to clear the way for President Trump's $300 million ballroom.
00:07:56.620Some Republicans tonight now questioning the optics of this, especially during this shutdown.
00:08:01.060Reactions keep pouring in from some visitors to the nation's capital.
00:08:04.740He's spending his money and not my taxpayer money. It's okay with me.
00:08:07.920I really don't see any major issue with it. The White House has been changed several times in the past.
00:08:15.540The president of Columbia in a recent interview said that if you won't change, then perhaps you need to be gotten rid of. Do you see that as a threat?
00:08:22.580Well, he's a thug and bad guy. He's a guy that is making a lot of drugs.
00:08:27.800We've just, as of today, stopped all payments going to Columbia, the country of Columbia.
00:08:32.900He's hurt his country very badly. They're doing it very poorly, Columbia.
00:08:36.060They make cocaine. They have cocaine factories.
00:08:39.660They grow all sorts of crap that's drugs, bad drugs coming into the United States, goes generally through Mexico.
00:08:47.460And he better watch it or we'll take very serious action against him and his country.
00:08:52.840The Supreme Court will be taking up a gun rights case.
00:08:55.620And this comes after a request from the Trump administration asking the high court to limit the right of drug users.
00:09:02.220This is a departure for the administration that typically favors Second Amendment rights.
00:09:07.020In this case, the Trump administration is actually defending a federal gun ban for drug users.
00:09:12.220This dash cam video shared with eyewitness news, and it's from the red semi truck that plowed into a number of vehicles on the westbound 10 freeway in Ontario.
00:09:20.660It is now the subject of several law enforcement investigations.
00:09:23.960This fiery collision killing three people and involving a total of eight vehicles.
00:09:27.980Tonight, the CHP telling the L.A. Times the driver of this big rig is a 21-year-old man who is now under arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs.
00:09:38.500All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live on Real America's Voice.
00:09:50.140This story out of California, the CDLs, the illegal aliens, the idea that our country has been completely overrun by not just illegals, but people here working and driving these semis, which, I mean, quite frankly, they're they're like weapons of mass destruction all across our highways, all across our cities and towns.
00:10:13.040And you look at this horrific crash, there's no there's no breaks, there's nothing we find out it's a legal alien from around the world.
00:10:20.620I wanted to get on my good friend and bestselling author, P.G. Keenan, to you know, who's from California to kind of break down this story for us.
00:11:27.180You know, I'm happy to help with with Turning Point and, you know, we're doing what we can in New Jersey and other spots like that and hope to cover some of the same stories.
00:11:36.920And I know, by the way, this was a story that Charlie was talking about quite a bit because Charlie had gone on a journey and sort of a story arc on this where, like, how did we get to the point that we had illegal aliens just like running all over our trucks?
00:13:15.320And this video does not does not give me any comfort.
00:13:17.880And then I find out California issues 25 percent of these CDLs to illegals.
00:13:25.340I was doing research, as I said, you apparently have to be legal to get a commercial driver's license in this country.
00:13:31.000You're supposed to have like a visa, all this.
00:13:33.620This guy crossed the border in 2022, was detained and released by Joe Biden.
00:13:38.340And now he's driving a truck on our most crowded freeways filled with innocent people and children and families going on trips.
00:13:49.560How is this like would we give him would we let him fly a plane like and he was high and and drunk or whatever he was on on meth?
00:13:57.480I think. How how are we allowing this and when will there be accountability to the truck driving company, which should be banned from operating in this country?
00:14:06.700And I'm sorry, Gavin Newsom, who is now an accessory to like mass murder.
00:14:10.880Yeah. Josh and Preet Singh was this U-Haul driver and.
00:14:20.500You're right, there should be some complicity here, there should be some complicity here.
00:14:25.160And the the ridiculous part of it is I'll even take a step back, right, because this is what what Charlie would talk about.
00:14:33.160And he had gotten to a different place on it because, you know, the GOP used to be like the party of business, the party of corporate America.
00:14:40.860And, you know, obviously we love entrepreneurship and obviously we love like Elon Musk.
00:14:45.040We love we love when people do well and people are innovative, but we hate ill gotten gains and we hate corruption.
00:14:52.300And that's something we should have always been against. And I think we kind of lost our way on for a long time.
00:14:57.360And so we definitely looked the other way when corporate America was taking so much corporate welfare.
00:15:02.840And by the way, H1Bs and all of these systems, H2Bs, these are forms of of government handouts and corporate welfare to companies.
00:15:14.300And so they they'll say, oh, well, you know, GDP goes up. But here's the thing about the GDP.
00:15:19.280The GDP is a theory, is a theoretical model of how the economy is working.
00:15:25.520It doesn't actually capture quality of life. It doesn't capture how households are doing.
00:15:30.620And what does it even really matter when most of the GDP's performance is going to the people at the top one percent?
00:15:38.560This is how you get destabilization. This is how you get disaffected youth.
00:15:42.900This is how you get disenfranchised young men who then go up on buildings and rooftops and pick up guns and shoot Charlie Kirk.
00:15:50.940It is all of these things. And it always has been historically.
00:15:54.000This is what gives rise to radical Marxism and, you know, the original No Kings protests, which was the slogan of the French Revolution.
00:16:00.860So there's no there's no, you know, really moment that I think a lot of people are taking a step back and say, guys, you know, we conservatives kind of are to blame for this because we forgot about the country.
00:16:13.820And we just sort of we just sort of put the economy first. And sorry to be on a rant, but it's it's just so obvious to me.
00:16:20.020Yeah. And we're putting these jobs, these sort of life and death tasks, we're giving them to people who don't have any skin in the game here.
00:16:28.500They don't have they didn't grow up here. They don't have family here.
00:16:30.940What do they care if they make a mistake and take out a whole family, a minivan full of parents and kids?
00:16:37.200You know, whereas let's say someone who grew up here, who's American, who has family here, he might be a little more careful because he might think, oh, it could be my grandma on the road.
00:16:45.120But some guy who just arrived just off the boat, like, what is he what does he care?
00:16:49.480He just trying to get a paycheck and bring his his whole entire family here to, you know, leech off.
00:16:55.320And by the way, you've seen this. So I was driving up by 95 to this Jack Cittarelli rally last weekend up in North Jersey and Bergen County.
00:17:06.820And you just and I was thinking about this, funny enough, and I was thinking about semi trucks in general and they just they're so dangerous.
00:17:14.320Anytime you see him now, they're so dangerous. And it's not like you remember when I don't know what, like when I was a kid, you would see one of the big rigs.
00:17:22.460And, you know, my dad had the CB radio. I will not put out his handle because that is that's for obsec.
00:17:27.760And yeah, you would do the Hong Kong, right, or the two, two, whatever you want to call it. Right.
00:17:30.960Yeah. You would do this and there'd be some guy in there and he'd be like, hey, kids, you know, and they would do it.
00:17:36.300And that would be the thing. But you knew you never had anything to worry about.
00:17:39.660But like those guys were the best. And now you see them and even beyond, you know, obviously this horrifying fatal incident and feels like there's one every week.
00:17:49.560Just when you're on the road, you see them changing lanes like crazy.
00:17:52.680You see them all over the place. We see it a ton in the northeast.
00:17:57.080We drove to Niagara Falls this past summer and we saw it all over the road out there as well.
00:18:03.580And bus drivers, too, which I'm sure, you know, some of those foreign tour companies, of course, are using drivers that come from other countries.
00:18:11.420And there was a huge bus crash right outside of Niagara a couple of weeks ago that was directly, you know, directly tied to this sort of thing.
00:18:18.480And so, you know, it's it's gotten to the point where public safety itself has absolutely been compromised.
00:18:25.760We're coming up on a quick break, but we're sticking right here because we're on with P.G. Keenan and we're discussing very serious risks to life and limb that have now arisen because we decided to let people come into this country without any actual controls on it whatsoever.
00:18:43.420So stick it right here. Human Events Daily. Shoot us an email. 1776 at humanevents.com. 1776 at humanevents.com.
00:18:51.620We will be right back on Real America's Voice.
00:18:55.760They talk about influences. These are influences. And they're friends of mine. Jack Posobiec. Where's Jack? Jack. He's done a great job.
00:19:18.400All right, folks, back live. Jack Posobiec here. Human Events Daily. You know, I got a question.
00:19:27.580What if those who were once called conspiracy theorists turn out to be right again?
00:19:32.600Well, a new study by Korean doctors claimed that COVID vaccines actually raise the risk of six cancers, including lung, breast and prostate.
00:19:41.340Researchers analyzed health records for more than 8.4 million adults between 2021 and 2023, and their findings were published in Biomarker Research, a respected scientific journal.
00:19:52.860Now, critics dismiss it, but the data raises concerns that the spike protein exposure may be tied to long-term health risks.
00:20:00.200Dr. Peter McCullough has been aware of this since 2020, which is why he collaborated with The Wellness Company to create the Ultimate Spike Detox,
00:20:09.200which is designed to help your body clear spike proteins, reduce inflammation, and support heart health.
00:20:14.980With natural ingredients like naticanase, dandelion root, and bromelain, it is your daily proactive defense from a man-made virus.
00:20:24.680Don't wait until symptoms strike or something unexpected happens.
00:20:28.180Experience the only formula approved and used by Dr. McCullough, one of the top doctors who risked it all.

00:21:34.780Well, I think if I could read Donald Trump's mind, I think he's going to name it something like the American ballroom or America's ballroom.
00:21:43.020But I also loved your suggestion also, Jack.
00:21:46.380Well, so I had said, now, I know a lot of media, they're saying, oh, he's going to name it after himself, the Donald J.
00:23:42.060I mean, I'm surprised I didn't name Washington, D.C. after George Floyd, you know, Floyd, D.C. in 2020.
00:23:47.260Well, we had we had the street, we had a whole street of Black Lives Matter, George Floyd Square, which, by the way, when Trump ordered them to I don't have it right with me.
00:23:56.640But when Trump ordered that to be demolished, we went and my brother went down there and he secured for me.
00:24:29.440We can rename the Smithsonian after you, Jack.
00:24:32.460Here in California, we have a freeway that's named after Barack Obama since he since the shovel ready projects, you know, in his first term.
00:24:39.860There's a Barack Obama freeway that we have to drive across.
00:24:43.900I wonder what would happen if one of these, like, Indian illegal aliens kills 10 people on the Barack Obama freeway.
00:24:49.460Well, you know what we have in Pennsylvania.
00:24:52.780In Pennsylvania, right outside of Scranton, we have, like, I forget what they call it.
00:24:56.560I think it's the Joe Biden Expressway that they put up.
00:24:59.600And I'm just like, I'm like, I need to I need to get a couple of guys to go in with a with a couple of wrenches and go and take care of that.
00:25:15.320Speaking of things to name after Donald Trump, I do think that by the time he leaves office, that the Dulles Airport should 100 percent be named.
00:25:24.680I mean, as corrupt as the Dulles brothers were, as as pro war and you look at everything they did to not for regime change all around the world.
