00:00:48.860 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:56.660 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:01:04.500 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:01:07.580 Christ is king.
00:01:09.200 This morning, now poised to head to the president, a bipartisan bill to force the release of DOJ
00:01:14.580 documents related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, passing both chambers of Congress
00:01:19.760 nearly unanimously.
00:01:20.900 The bill is passed.
00:01:23.000 After months of resistance from the president and GOP leaders, only one elected Republican
00:01:28.140 voting no.
00:01:29.320 We have released 33,000, over 33,000 Epstein documents to the Hill, and we'll continue to
00:01:36.480 follow the law and to have maximum transparency.
00:01:41.340 Also, we will always encourage all victims to come forward.
00:01:44.800 We're told that $270 billion in agreements and sales are being signed between dozens of
00:01:51.500 companies, and that's just happening today, $270 billion.
00:01:54.940 My message to all of the leaders and investors with us today, and they are the best in the
00:01:59.540 world, is very simple.
00:02:01.360 Under the Trump administration, America is back and America is open for business, and
00:02:06.140 America is actually stronger than it's ever been before.
00:02:09.200 That we have a lot more in common than we do not in common, and that the disagreements
00:02:14.100 that animate the Republican Party, while they matter and they're important, I think these
00:02:18.120 debates should happen.
00:02:19.040 They should happen in podcasts, and they should happen in the media, they should happen on
00:02:22.580 the op-ed pages.
00:02:23.780 It's totally reasonable for the people who make up this coalition to argue about what
00:02:28.700 our foreign policy should be, what our specific tax policy should be.
00:02:32.080 Let these debates play out, but don't let the debates that we're having internally blind
00:02:37.920 us to the fact that we're up against a radical leftist movement that murdered my friend a couple
00:02:43.360 of months ago, and that would throw many people in the Trump administration in prison, not
00:02:48.640 for doing anything illegal, but for not following the far left's agenda.
00:02:52.480 That is the real opponent here.
00:02:54.780 A political movement in this country that has no animating principle, that has no agenda
00:02:59.580 for the American people, their sole obsession is to take down Donald Trump and anybody who
00:03:04.580 helped Donald Trump govern.
00:03:05.820 The U.S. has now presented Ukraine with a new plan to try and end this war.
00:03:10.440 A high-level U.S. military delegation is in Kyiv right now, is going to meet with President
00:03:14.760 Zelensky later today.
00:03:16.400 Some of the proposals that have been shared with ABC News include cutting the Ukrainian army,
00:03:21.300 Russia keeping the territory it's occupied in the war, and a demilitarized buffer zone.
00:03:26.240 Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:03:32.660 We are live on location, Bakersfield, California.
00:03:36.180 Today is November 20th, 2025, Anno Domini, and I'm sitting here with perhaps the next governor
00:03:43.220 of California, Steve Hilton.
00:03:44.560 What's up, Steve?
00:03:44.960 There you go.
00:03:45.520 I'm planning on it, and what a joy to see you.
00:03:47.860 Well, and thank you for having us, and incredible.
00:03:50.180 The studio is amazing, and thank you so much for setting this up for us.
00:03:52.800 Well, you know, I'm on the road a lot these days in California, all the time, and Bakersfield,
00:03:57.540 I love coming here, because we are in the heart of our energy industry in California.
00:04:03.320 We have abundant oil and gas reserves right here, pretty much under our feet, being left
00:04:08.480 in the ground by the insane climate zealots in California.
00:04:11.920 One of the main things I'm going to do as governor is open that up, my first pledge in
00:04:15.300 my campaign, $3 gas, which to you, and everyone watching around the nation-
00:04:22.800 I got into LAX last night, I'm driving, it's about two hours north to Bakersfield, and we're
00:04:27.560 in the Central Valley.
00:04:28.420 This is the center of the Central Valley.
00:04:29.680 It's right, the south end of it.
00:04:31.100 The south end of the Central Valley.
00:04:32.540 And I couldn't believe the gas price is here.
00:04:35.100 I know.
00:04:35.460 And this is coming from the East Coast, where we're under $3.
00:04:38.340 Right.
00:04:38.660 I haven't seen it over $3.
00:04:40.020 Well, it's like $3, maybe over like $3.10, give or take, but that's about it.
00:04:44.440 It's totally insane.
00:04:45.760 And the thing is-
00:04:46.380 And then I get here, and I'm seeing $5.
00:04:47.740 And the reason I go on about it is that, actually, it's such a perfect example of what the left
00:04:53.600 is doing, which is in pursuit of their insane ideological agenda.
00:04:57.580 They are crushing regular working-class Californians.
00:05:01.100 They are the ones paying the price for it, drive their cars and their trucks two, three,
00:05:04.920 four, five hours a day.
00:05:06.160 It's not the climate warriors sitting at home, and they're kind of tapping away at their MacBooks.
00:05:10.660 It's regular working people who are paying the price for this ideology.
00:05:14.220 And so that's why I started my campaign with that pledge.
00:05:19.140 It's funny.
00:05:19.900 I talk to people.
00:05:21.300 I go on shows like this, and we have a national audience.
00:05:24.240 People might be thinking, what's so good about $3 gas?
00:05:27.280 Because that's normal.
00:05:28.480 Less than that in most of the country.
00:05:30.060 Here in California, despite the abundant oil reserves, literally here in Bakersfield,
00:05:35.040 where we are, we're paying the highest gas prices in the country, higher than Hawaii,
00:05:39.980 in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
00:05:41.000 Where it's completely imported, where they have to bring it in.
00:05:42.820 Exactly.
00:05:42.840 They have to ship it in.
00:05:43.920 And you're here.
00:05:45.400 And I was looking up, because it's my first time at Bakersfield, looking up a little bit
00:05:49.020 of the history.
00:05:49.580 I just always like to do that when I travel.
00:05:51.640 And it was Gold Rush originally, Gold Rush town.
00:05:54.700 And then just 50 or so years after that, oil boom.
00:05:59.480 And it just became a massive oil boom town.
00:06:01.980 And you're telling me they can't even drill the oil here the way that they should be able to?
00:06:06.160 Yes.
00:06:06.460 So not that long ago, before the kind of climate zealots took over, most of the oil that we
00:06:13.180 use in California, we produced in California.
00:06:15.920 Sure, why not?
00:06:16.420 Right here in this county.
00:06:18.140 And that's what they do in Texas.
00:06:19.240 Exactly.
00:06:19.620 Now, because they are every single day, they're attacking the oil producers.
00:06:25.900 And so the production has gone down and down and down.
00:06:29.220 Almost every time I come here and I talk to the industry, the barrels that are produced
00:06:33.860 going down.
00:06:34.680 So now we are importing nearly 80% of the oil we use in California.
00:06:39.820 So after all these years of the war on fossil fuels, the amount that we use is basically
00:06:45.560 the same.
00:06:46.460 The difference is we are now importing it from halfway around the world.
00:06:50.380 What's our number one provider of oil in California?
00:06:53.900 It used to be California.
00:06:55.360 It used to be in state.
00:06:56.240 Today, Iraq.
00:06:57.960 Iraq.
00:06:58.360 Iraq.
00:06:58.960 So you've got Iraqi oil that's coming in all the way over.
00:07:02.920 I mean, gosh.
00:07:03.360 Oh, wait.
00:07:03.980 On giant super tankers.
00:07:05.340 Yeah, the super tankers.
00:07:06.120 Which is the most polluting form of transportation.
00:07:08.260 Of course, if you actually care about the environment, you'd think that you wouldn't want to do that.
00:07:12.360 This is going to be great.
00:07:13.160 We've got Steve Hilton here.
00:07:14.360 He's on for the full show today.
00:07:15.700 We're so excited he's here.
00:07:17.220 And we're here, by the way, because tonight we're going to be appearing on stage with Megyn Kelly.
00:07:21.220 Megyn Kelly.
00:07:21.500 Oh, I'm so excited about that.
00:07:22.000 So we're so excited about that.
00:07:23.340 So we'll be here giving you a little bit of a preview and talking a little bit about California
00:07:28.200 and other things because I want to talk about something that's going on back in D.C.
00:07:32.760 The funeral of the human party.
00:07:34.820 Right back.
00:07:35.480 Jack Posobiec, Steve Hilton, Human Events Daily.
00:07:38.260 And in our way in our golden age has just begun.
00:07:45.860 This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:07:47.620 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.
00:07:52.320 Welcome to the second American revolution.
00:07:56.700 All right, Jack Posobiec.
00:08:00.080 We are back live here in Bakersfield, California.
00:08:03.420 We're in studio with Steve Hilton, perhaps the next governor of the great state of California.
00:08:10.500 Pardon me.
00:08:11.360 Folks, anyone that knows me and knows the work that Human Events does day in and day out knows the conservative movement never stops.
00:08:17.440 And the fuel that keeps me going all the way from the East Coast to Bakersfield and back again is Blackout Coffee.
00:08:23.540 So for years, Blackout Coffee has been my coffee of choice.
00:08:26.460 I know that so many of you are getting on board as well because it's so delicious.
00:08:30.600 It tastes so good.
00:08:31.680 It's not just coffee.
00:08:32.540 It's America in a cup.
00:08:34.160 Founded on Christian values, rooted in family, and built on the belief that hardworking Americans deserve better than that corporate swill you get over the counter.
00:08:42.360 Blackout Coffee is a family business that roasts every batch right here in the USA.
00:08:46.860 Two roasts you've got to try.
00:08:47.880 Morning Reaper, a smooth, medium roast that kicks off your day without bitterness.
00:08:51.960 And for the dark roast lovers, that's me.
00:08:53.860 Brutal Awakening.
00:08:54.980 A bold, rich flavor with a deep roast that will keep you sharp and alert.
00:08:59.800 Steve, what do you do?
00:09:00.340 Are you a smooth or are you a dark roast guy?
00:09:02.140 So, you know, I'm going to be – this is heresy.
00:09:04.120 I still –
00:09:05.280 You're your tea guy.
00:09:06.200 You're going to tell me you're a tea guy, aren't you?
00:09:06.860 I'm going to tell you that.
00:09:07.520 Here's the thing.
00:09:08.420 I'm a proud American.
00:09:09.580 My wife's the same way.
00:09:10.360 Let's just be clear.
00:09:11.220 Oh, here we go.
00:09:11.680 And not just a proud American, just so that you're really clear.
00:09:14.960 Uh-huh.
00:09:15.300 I have actually formally –
00:09:16.340 You just lost the race, folks.
00:09:17.460 You just lost the race.
00:09:18.420 I have formally – no, wait.
00:09:20.440 Renounced my UK citizenship.
00:09:21.840 Okay.
00:09:22.260 So, there's the whole thing you have to go through, and I've done that.
00:09:24.500 But –
00:09:25.100 But I'm sticking with the tea.
00:09:26.860 I'm so sorry to say.
00:09:28.460 Guys, we're going to get him an entire bag – no, you know what?
00:09:32.420 An entire yearly subscription to Blackout.
00:09:35.000 Okay.
00:09:35.400 And you are going to be completely converted once you try this stuff.
00:09:38.460 Well, actually, should I tell you the story?
00:09:39.680 Yeah.
00:09:39.780 So, the reason I stopped coffee was that many, many years ago, back in England, when I was running
00:09:43.880 my business, we had a little office in Soho.
00:09:46.040 Yeah.
00:09:46.320 And this was in the days when smoking was legal.
00:09:48.700 Of course.
00:09:48.880 I used to smoke a lot before I had kids.
00:09:51.460 And our office was kind of small, and across the street in Soho in London was a fantastic
00:09:56.900 Italian coffee shop.
00:09:58.200 Sure.
00:09:58.380 And we would go there and have our meetings there, because it was a nice place to have
00:10:01.140 a meeting.
00:10:01.800 And basically, I would have all day long, double espressos and a cigarette, and they
00:10:05.840 kind of went together.
00:10:06.920 Yes.
00:10:07.140 And so, when I thought, I've got to stop smoking, but well, maybe the connection with
00:10:10.720 coffee was driving it, so I'll stop the coffee, and maybe that'll help me stop smoking.
00:10:15.920 So, that's how it all went down.
00:10:18.180 So, what we need to do, we need to Americanize this.
00:10:20.340 No double espressos.
00:10:21.640 We'll start smooth.
00:10:22.600 We'll start with the Morning Reaper.
00:10:24.100 We'll start there.
00:10:24.840 Great name.
00:10:25.400 I love the branding.
00:10:26.380 Fantastic.
00:10:26.700 The branding's fantastic.
00:10:28.260 Because, and going to the rest of it, we know that Christmas is coming, Thanksgiving,
00:10:32.540 of course, as well, and New Year's.
00:10:34.080 You want coffee at the holiday time when you're bringing people together.
00:10:37.820 By the way, I love the smell of coffee.
00:10:39.760 I love that.
00:10:41.000 Well, here's the thing.
00:10:41.600 If you want that all 12 months of the year, you can get a subscription, because what they
00:10:45.220 do is they send it to you.
00:10:46.460 They even have, it's sort of a flavor of the month option.
00:10:48.980 So, if you want it, you go to blackoutcoffee.com slash Poso and use promo code Poso for 20% off
00:10:52.820 your first order.
00:10:53.560 Again, that's blackoutcoffee.com slash Poso.
00:10:56.020 So, try the flavor of the month, because then you get to see, I like this one.
00:11:00.120 I don't like that one.
00:11:01.160 Try something new.
00:11:02.780 It is the variety of life.
00:11:04.420 Steve Hilton, we are going to spice up your life as well.
00:11:07.180 Okay.
00:11:07.540 I love it.
00:11:08.120 You're good at this.
00:11:08.880 I love it.
00:11:09.420 I got to try.
00:11:10.000 I got to try.
00:11:10.440 What can I say?
00:11:10.960 But, Steve.
00:11:11.120 So, speaking of, we're talking about life, but we also have to talk about a funeral.
00:11:17.260 So, the end of life, which is going on in Washington, D.C. right now, or I should say it took place
00:11:24.460 earlier.
00:11:24.980 And this was the funeral of Vice President Dick Cheney.
00:11:28.740 And, you know, I was looking at some of these videos and looking at some of the situation,
00:11:34.960 and I thought, you know, it's, you know, okay, it's a Vice President.
00:11:38.060 You know, we know the Cheneys.
00:11:39.060 We know the Bushes, that era.
00:11:40.560 It is what it is.
00:11:41.680 I didn't even really want to talk about, you know, it as a news story.
00:11:45.760 But something struck me looking at these videos and I seeing the people who are there
00:11:49.920 and the names that are there.
00:11:53.240 You've got Rachel Maddow.
00:11:54.720 I know.
00:11:55.080 Amazing.
00:11:55.300 Sitting next to Anthony Fauci.
00:11:57.680 James Carville.
00:11:59.400 You've got Kamala Harris.
00:12:01.200 You've got both Bidens.
00:12:02.740 No Clintons, as far as I can see.
00:12:04.480 Correct me if I'm wrong, guys, but I'm not seeing any Clintons there.
00:12:08.340 This is the Anshan regime.
00:12:11.260 Exactly.
00:12:11.540 This is the ancient regime, the old regime.
00:12:14.540 This is the Uniparty.
00:12:16.680 What struck you when you were looking at this?
00:12:18.280 It's so funny.
00:12:18.940 When we walked in, when I walked into the studio and we were just chatting before the show,
00:12:23.280 I had exactly the same sense.
00:12:25.140 I just saw a few minutes of it back in my hotel room.
00:12:29.700 And I just thought, what?
00:12:31.840 It was actually when President Bush was giving his eulogy.
00:12:37.100 And there was something so, it just felt like from a different age.
00:12:41.020 Like, wait, this was the president?
00:12:43.360 And there he's talking about Liz Cheney and referencing this family and what they did together.
00:12:48.760 And it just felt so from a different era.
00:12:51.860 Everything about it felt completely out of place.
00:12:55.440 Just, wow.
00:12:56.920 You look at where we were 10 years ago.
00:12:58.520 And everyone thought going into the, you know, so 2015, going into 2016, everyone, you know, all the smart people, the smart money knew that the 2016 campaign would be Hillary Clinton versus Jeb Bush.
00:13:13.040 Right.
00:13:13.520 That was going to be, you know, that was your, your, that was, it was a fait accompli.
00:13:18.580 And probably, and I said this the other day, probably Hillary was going to seem rolling.
00:13:21.940 And, and that would, you know, but then the Bushes would still sort of be around and they'd have a governorship.
00:13:27.660 And he runs for Senate and you have a few different things like this.
00:13:31.380 And then the, you know, their kids, the next generation, the grandchildren of George Bush Sr. start coming up.
00:13:37.180 And yet Trump came in and the populist movement came in with him and just totally rearranged American politics and, and they're all still there.
00:13:48.560 And yet prior to today and prior to looking at these images, I think that's why it was so startling because we just, they just don't have the influence they once did.
00:13:56.880 And I wanted to bring this up, not only is 9-11, the Iraq war, the war on terror, the financial crisis, the bailouts, that was at the very tail end of Bush.
00:14:08.840 And I would argue that both of those combined have had the most profound impact on all of our politics today.
00:14:16.380 Well, I'm glad we don't even talk about the people who did it.
00:14:18.860 No, exactly. And it was actually the economic aspect of that was the real moment, if you like, the sort of wake up for me around the Uniparty and everything that they represented.
00:14:30.460 I remember really clearly, because it's almost like, you remember President Trump at Butler and he talks about the chart that saved his life when he turned his head.
00:14:38.920 Of course, yeah.
00:14:39.400 There's one chart that really kind of woke me up in terms of my orientation towards the populist movement, which was, I wrote a book in 2015 called More Human, Designing a World Where People Come First.
00:14:51.640 I did the update for early 2016 for the U.S. edition.
00:14:54.680 And in the chapter about economics, one of the chapters about poverty and so on, I was getting U.S. data and I saw this chart and it showed the income, the earnings of the 80% of the population, roughly.
00:15:11.320 They call it non-managerial, non-supervisory workers, regular working people.
00:15:17.080 The chart of their earnings after inflation since the 70s plotted against corporate earnings and corporate profits and the stock market.
00:15:26.580 It was absolutely stunning. Earnings for most Americans after inflation, completely flat since 1974.
00:15:34.160 Yep.
00:15:34.760 Flat. And everything else up like a hockey stick for the top 20% and for corporate earnings and profits.
00:15:40.700 And that was the moment I thought, it's totally failed.
00:15:43.560 There's a phrase that I've heard to describe this and they call it, I wish I could claim credit, it's not, they call it the silent recession.
00:15:51.960 The silent recession.
00:15:53.620 Because you've got so many people, perhaps people here in Bakersfield, that are stuck in this economic stagnancy.
00:16:00.640 Yes.
00:16:00.860 And you've got young people, millennials, Gen Z, that are trying to break into the system but are facing all of these headwinds.
00:16:07.700 But you've got so many people who, to use the slang, they've already secured their bag.
00:16:14.340 Yes.
00:16:14.560 And so, they don't even see that all of this is going on around them.
00:16:19.100 Exactly.
00:16:19.280 Because if you're already in the real estate market, if you're already in the stock market, life seems great because you're above that line.
00:16:26.160 You're in the hockey stick territory.
00:16:27.500 Exactly.
00:16:27.980 And this, I think this drives all of our politics.
00:16:30.000 I really do.
00:16:30.560 And that's why this, you know, the Trump era transformation is just so profound and the reorientation of the Republican Party to become the working class party, the majority representing the majority of regular workers' interests.
00:16:44.860 It's just amazing, that transformation.
00:16:47.240 I remember at the beginning of that, it really coincided with when I started hosting my show on Fox News, The Next Revolution.
00:16:52.400 I remember saying at that time, with Trump at the helm, the Republican Party has the opportunity to become a multiracial working class coalition, an opportunity.
00:17:03.540 Well, that's completely been delivered.
00:17:05.440 It's a massive transformation, a historic transformation.
00:17:08.360 And the other thing that's so satisfying about it for those of us who supported the president right from the beginning is if you look at the data, and it's too soon for this administration, you look at the data towards the end of the first Trump administration, that whole pattern was reversed.
00:17:24.820 And the people whose earnings rose fastest percentage-wise during the first Trump administration, the bottom 20% of workers.
00:17:32.820 They did, for the first time in half a century, their position improved more rapidly than anyone else in the income scale.
00:17:40.580 And I've said this, it's funny, I was talking to Producer Angelo here on the show today, and I said, you can't understand the MAGA movement if you don't understand the importance of what they call the B-tier and C-tier cities in America.
00:17:55.660 So I'm from Pennsylvania, so my B-tier, this would be like your Western Pennsylvania, Appalachia, J.D. Vance territory, these areas.
00:18:05.060 They don't necessarily have a professional football team, or the Steelers are there.
00:18:10.500 But it's areas that are sort of overlooked, the flyover country, forgotten America.
00:18:16.100 And this idea that there's so many communities out there that have just been completely overlooked, President Trump calls them the forgotten man, forgotten woman, and those people are struggling.
00:18:28.460 They're struggling so much, and then you've got Gen Z, and this was something that my friend and yours, Charlie Kirk, spoke out against over and over and over and said,
00:18:38.660 You know, you guys think there's this generational warfare that's going on right now because they feel like they are being oppressed, that they're being pushed down by so many of these pressures.
00:18:49.920 I don't think, and just to put it all back, and we're going to a break here in a second, but you're right, though.
00:18:56.160 All of that was predicated on the Bush bailouts.
00:18:59.420 So, we would have had no populist revolution, or at least it wouldn't have caught on the way that it did if we didn't have the Bush bailouts of 2008, the financial crisis, the response to it, where it's just true.
00:19:12.680 It's just true.
00:19:13.820 The rich were handed everything.
00:19:16.580 Everyone else had the ladder pulled up right in front of them.
00:19:20.020 Going back to a break, Jack Posobiec, Steve Hilton here, Human Events Daily, live on Location at Bakersfield.
00:19:26.520 All right, folks, we're back.
00:19:45.380 Jack Posobiec, Steve Hilton, we're here in Bakersfield, California, Human Events Daily.
00:19:49.540 Folks, if you are a homeowner in America, you need to listen to this.
00:19:52.060 The FBI has been warning about a new type of real estate fraud on the rise.
00:19:56.040 It's called title theft, and your equity is the target.
00:19:59.320 Here's how it works.
00:20:00.440 Criminals will forge your signature on a single document, use a fake notary stamp, and file it with the county.
00:20:05.360 Just like that, on record, they own your home.
00:20:07.960 Using your ownership, they can take out loans against your equity or even sell your property.
00:20:13.080 They won't know about it until foreclosure or collection notices show up in the mail.
00:20:16.960 That's why I've partnered with Home Title Lock, that you can protect your equity and find out today if you're already a victim.

00:20:46.440 That's HomeTitleLock.com, promo code POSO.
00:20:49.080 So, Steve, you're running in California.
00:20:51.540 You're going to fix all this stuff.
00:20:52.740 Exactly.
00:20:53.180 It's all going to be taken care of.
00:20:54.360 And you're going to – and you're going to – Gavin Newsom, of course, he's here in California, and somehow he's presided over all of this, and he wants to use this to try to launch a presidential campaign.
00:21:08.700 And you see this – now, I know Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania.
00:21:10.720 He was my county commissioner.
00:21:12.220 Now he's the governor.
00:21:13.180 He wants to run for president as well.
00:21:15.740 And yet he has a complete track record of failure.
00:21:17.720 I see the same thing with Gavin Newsom.
00:21:20.240 Is it possible for him to take this message and just overlook the mess of California to a national scale, or are you going to be able to stop him?
00:21:30.800 Well, my plan is to be the governor, not only cleaning up the mess in California that he left behind and thereby improving the lives of Californians, but in the process showing the rest of the country the scale of the mess so they can avoid the calamity of bringing that nationwide.
00:21:48.720 I mean, if you look at the failure in California, it is total and complete on every single front.
00:21:54.000 It's actually kind of genius the way he's been able to fail and the Democrat regime.
00:21:59.440 They've had one party rule now here for over 15 years.
00:22:02.800 Every single thing.
00:22:05.420 The worst in America.
00:22:06.740 It's an amazing thing.
00:22:08.020 The other day, the Wall Street Journal wrote an editorial on Elise Stefanik entering the race to become New York governor.
00:22:16.440 And, you know, I agreed with most of what they said, except for one sentence at the end.
00:22:19.200 We said, it is hard – this is the quote – it's hard to think of a state more in need of political change than New York.
00:22:25.200 So, well, I can think of one.
00:22:26.480 Hold on, hold on.
00:22:27.060 So, I wrote the letter and they published the letter and I went through just the facts, right?
00:22:31.260 How many times have we talked?
00:22:32.560 Follow the data.
00:22:33.360 Okay.
00:22:34.540 Right now, California has the highest unemployment rate in America, the highest poverty rate, the highest costs for gas, electric, water, insurance, rent, homes, everything to do with housing.
00:22:48.060 Chief Executive Magazine does an annual survey of the states in terms of which is better or worse to do business.
00:22:53.700 California, for the last 10 years, worst out of all states, 50th out of 50.
00:22:59.700 50th out of 50 for affordability, 50th out of 50, U.S. News & World Report does a ranking for opportunity.
00:23:06.000 It's just every single thing.
00:23:08.000 I used to make a joke in my speeches about how, well, there is one area where we're not the worst in America.
00:23:14.580 Their great success story, roads.
00:23:17.000 Our roads in California, only 47th out of 50.
00:23:19.980 When I wrote this letter, it's in the Wall Street Journal, I better get my facts right.
00:23:24.140 I went and checked every single data point that I was about to make my joke about the roads.
00:23:28.660 I looked it up.
00:23:29.520 Now we're 50th on that as well.
00:23:31.520 I mean, it's absolutely stunning.
00:23:33.280 It's a total failure.
00:23:34.960 And the point that everyone needs to understand around the country is this is what happens when the left get everything that they want.
00:23:42.980 Because they've been in power with no restraint whatsoever.
00:23:47.340 Every statewide office, the super majority in the legislature, so that they can pass anything that they want.
00:23:53.620 Republicans have had no input or ability to constrain that.
00:23:57.120 They run all the big cities, all the big counties.
00:24:00.280 This is what you get.
00:24:01.280 We've seen this far-left experiment play out here in California better than anywhere else.
00:24:07.440 And the results are a total disaster.
00:24:09.880 And the people hurt the most are regular, working-class Californians, small businesses, those who can least afford.
00:24:17.200 I mean, we haven't even got into crime.
00:24:19.420 Homelessness.
00:24:19.820 No, no.
00:24:20.100 I mean, homelessness, the squalor of our great cities.
00:24:26.460 It's just education we haven't talked about, reading scores, math scores, the worst in the country.
00:24:31.220 I mean, everything is a disaster.
00:24:33.660 Everything.
00:24:34.100 And the impact of illegal aliens as well.
00:24:37.060 Exactly.
00:24:37.260 They're probably, pound for pound, one of the states most affected by this issue.
00:24:42.160 Exactly.
00:24:42.560 And, of course, it affects everything else because health care costs, the housing crisis, the schools where you have – I mean, I'm on the road the whole time.
00:24:51.420 You go to communities where the parents are in despair because the kids trying to learn at school, you have so many languages.
00:25:00.160 People don't speak English.
00:25:01.500 It's just a total disaster.
00:25:03.980 And yet he seems to think he could just ignore all that and run for president.
00:25:08.980 And so far, especially on the left, the media are just letting him get away with it because they think he's, you know, a successful political showman.
00:25:17.200 Of course, that's true.
00:25:18.280 He is.
00:25:19.080 But the record has to mean something.
00:25:22.080 And I think it's incredibly important that all of us really know the record, make sure the whole country understands just what a disaster he has been.
00:25:30.420 And the core of it is that he's just not interested in governing, not interested, and no aptitude for governing.
00:25:39.260 And you see this with – this is what you get from one-party rule.
00:25:42.760 It throws up these kind of machine politicians whose only skill is navigating the political system.
00:25:48.160 They've never done anything else.
00:25:49.620 They've never done a real job.
00:25:50.760 And so they just – they think that saying something is the same as doing it.
00:25:55.060 For example, nearly a year ago now, after the L.A. wildfires, by the way, the disaster caused by their policies, the fire we now know started by an arsonist, but the fact that it was such a disaster, entirely due to their ideology and incompetence, the fact that they didn't clear the brush, those hillsides, they didn't have proper – you know, the empty reservoir, all those things we know.
00:26:16.340 But at the time, Gavin Newsom stood there in the smoldering remains of the Palisades and said, we're going to have a Marshall Plan.
00:26:24.120 This is a quote, a Marshall Plan to rebuild.
00:26:27.260 Nothing's happened.
00:26:28.440 He just says these things.
00:26:29.980 You know, Karen Bass, the mayor –
00:26:31.820 Have you linked up at all with – was it Spencer Pratt?
00:26:34.240 He's been –
00:26:34.620 Yeah, it's fantastic.
00:26:35.580 He's been hitting a lot.
00:26:36.480 He's so good on this.
00:26:37.300 So good.
00:26:37.680 So good, yeah.
00:26:38.020 But here's a really, really specific example that tells the story of California failure.
00:26:43.100 Karen Bass, about a few months ago –
00:26:45.980 An aval marxist, by the way.
00:26:47.280 Yeah, exactly.
00:26:47.880 So she does this press conference and she puts a social media post that says, I have just signed an executive order streamlining permitting to rebuild L.A.
00:26:57.420 And I remember thinking, well, that's good.
00:26:59.300 Four months too late, but whatever.
00:27:00.460 The actual quote, I have just signed an executive order tasking agency heads with developing paths forward to streamlining permitting.
00:27:09.300 You got it there in a nutshell.
00:27:11.200 These are sort of BS artists, don't know how to get anything actually done.
00:27:15.340 That's exactly what it comes down to.
00:27:17.100 Jack Posobiec, Steve Hilton, a special guest.
00:27:19.440 Join us in the next segment here in Bakersfield, California.
00:27:22.260 Where is Jack?
00:27:28.140 Where's Jack?
00:27:30.240 Where is he?
00:27:31.520 Jack, I want to see you.
00:27:35.160 Great job, Jack.
00:27:36.580 Thank you.
00:27:37.360 What a job you do.
00:27:38.780 You know, we have an incredible thing.
00:27:40.160 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the guys who should be getting Pulisic.
00:27:45.940 All right, folks, Jack Posobiec here, back live, Bakersfield, California.
00:27:51.960 Folks, cold weather will be here before you know it, and you know what I realized the other day?
00:27:56.500 Well, it's simple.
00:27:57.480 If the power goes out when it's really cold, it's actually a little bit cold here in Bakersfield today, I have no way to keep myself and my family warm.
00:28:04.040 Isn't that crazy?
00:28:04.960 You could actually freeze.
00:28:06.340 But then I heard about the Vesta off-grid space heater from our friends at MyPatriotSupply.
00:28:11.360 It's a space heater that doesn't use electricity.
00:28:14.440 It runs on something called canned heat, which is an indoor safe fuel.
00:28:20.180 With a Vesta stashed in my closet, I know we can keep warm no matter what, and it doubles as a stove to boil water or cook food, which is pretty cool.
00:28:27.820 Now, the best part is you can get a Vesta and a bunch of other free gifts when you order the winter prep special from MyPatriotSupply.
00:28:33.440 So just go on over to MyPatriotSupply.com slash Jack and see everything included.
00:28:38.840 This offer won't last long, and neither will the nice fall weather.
00:28:42.060 So go to MyPatriotSupply.com slash Jack today.
00:28:44.560 That's MyPatriotSupply.com slash Jack.
00:28:47.400 Okay, we've got about five more minutes until our special guest shall remain nameless.
00:28:51.700 It's not Megyn Kelly.
00:28:52.820 It's not Megyn Kelly, for the record.
00:28:54.420 But we've got a pretty cool event coming up tonight.
00:28:56.600 So we've got Megyn Kelly, myself, yourself, and Victor Davis Hanson, as well as Charlie Sheen.
00:29:06.300 Really?
00:29:06.940 This is it.
00:29:07.480 So I've really met, like, imagine how I feel, Jack.
00:29:10.200 Yes.
00:29:10.800 As my parents, immigrants from Hungary.
00:29:14.220 They fled communism and grew up in a regular working-class household in England.
00:29:18.480 And then here I am, moved to America, become a citizen, my wife and my two sons, and here
00:29:24.380 I am on stage with Charlie Sheen.
00:29:26.960 How about that?
00:29:27.960 Of course, Jack, you know, you're the one I was, you know, all those years ago back in
00:29:32.060 England thinking, maybe one day, maybe I'll make it, and I'll be there with Jack.
00:29:36.000 But Charlie Sheen.
00:29:36.760 Of course.
00:29:37.060 Of course.
00:29:37.980 Yeah, yeah.
00:29:39.020 Well, I mean, you know.
00:29:39.700 It's not amazing.
00:29:39.920 What a country this is.
00:29:41.200 Well, you know, it's, I mean, you look at Charlie Sheen, and I look at the films, right?
00:29:45.680 And some of the most patriotic films, this guy made, he's in Platoon.
00:29:51.000 He does Red Dawn, which, so, you know, you know, Amanda, right?
00:29:55.240 Amanda Milius.
00:29:55.920 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:29:56.280 So Amanda Milius, of course, a good, good friend, huge, huge name in the movement.
00:30:00.440 She's the daughter of John Milius, who made that film, but talks about, but yeah, so he
00:30:05.820 made Red Dawn, and then Charlie is the, you know, is the lead in that.
00:30:09.480 And actually, you know, unfortunately, I do actually hear that John, he's not doing so well
00:30:13.780 health-wise, and so we're absolutely praying for him.
00:30:17.000 And then he also, Charlie Sheen plays Ricky Vaughn in Major League.
00:30:21.380 Ricky Vaughn then became the sort of non-diplume of Douglas Mackey, who was the guy who got
00:30:27.600 arrested by the Biden administration for a meme, right?
00:30:31.680 But his picture was Ricky Vaughn from Major League, played by Charlie Sheen.
00:30:36.320 But it was, of course, he took the Ricky Vaughn character and put him in a MAGA hat.
00:30:39.480 So I don't know if Charlie's ever actually done that.
00:30:42.340 So maybe, you know, you know, maybe throw some stuff up, but it's, it's, you know, it's
00:30:46.320 just an incredible, it's an incredible situation.
00:30:48.540 I think that when you look at the, that's the flip side, right?
00:30:52.280 So we talked about the Anshen regime, right, and their funeral.
00:30:56.720 This is the new, you know, the new republic, the new coalition, the new movement.
00:31:01.800 It makes sense to have a guy like Charlie Sheen, you know, maybe he's not coming out as a
00:31:05.780 Trump supporter, but someone who just wants to speak freely.
00:31:08.640 Freely.
00:31:08.920 I just, as you were speaking, that's what I was, it's free thinkers.
00:31:12.440 It's people who are just like, we, this is America.
00:31:14.620 Yes.
00:31:14.840 We're not going to be told what to do, how to behave.
00:31:17.860 We're not going to conform.
00:31:19.220 We're not going to be bossed around, you know, in any way.
00:31:22.280 And I just feel that that spirit, that rebel spirit that really was captured in the 24 campaign,
00:31:29.780 the Trump campaign was so thrilling, the way you saw people coming together.
00:31:33.380 And the way that the president handled that and was just, you know, everyone who wants
00:31:39.440 change, let's all get together.
00:31:41.260 You don't have to agree with every single thing that I say or whatever, but we're all
00:31:45.360 on the same team, which is for, you know, helping lift up regular working people in America.
00:31:51.680 And that rebel alliance aspect of it was so exciting.
00:31:56.140 You said that because you go look at Charlie Sheen's films.
00:32:00.120 Those are the types of movies he made.
00:32:01.880 He made movies for the regular American movies, Navy SEALs.
00:32:07.440 I didn't mention Navy SEALs.
00:32:08.380 He jumps off.
00:32:09.660 They're at the wedding and he jumps off the bridge and he's swimming out of the car and
00:32:13.500 into the, into the water.
00:32:14.860 And, and then even, even when he does Wall Street with Gordon Gekko, that's, it's, it's
00:32:19.120 a cut up of Wall Street.
00:32:20.120 Exactly right.
00:32:20.440 It's a send up.
00:32:21.260 And if I remember correctly, because his father is in that, Martin, and plays a union
00:32:26.140 worker.
00:32:26.340 The union guy.
00:32:26.840 Exactly.
00:32:26.980 And it shows how the union guy is able to sort of get one over on, so it's, it's very
00:32:32.000 much a pro working class movie.
00:32:34.160 Those are the types of films that used to be made in Hollywood, which not too far away
00:32:38.740 from here.
00:32:39.200 And they've, I feel that they've completely been divorced from this, this sort of America,
00:32:45.880 which, you know, it's, it's so strange because you're here in California and they live right
00:32:49.260 next to each other.
00:32:50.340 Exactly.
00:32:50.880 And, and, and that's the majority of Californians.
00:32:53.620 Right.
00:32:54.040 Um, and you know, I'm the, the, the great joy of doing this job of running for governors.
00:32:58.880 I'm on the road the whole time across the whole state and, and we have everything here.
00:33:03.080 You know, you got, I was just the other week up in the Northern part of our state, Sierra
00:33:06.300 County, Nevada County, Siskiyou County.
00:33:08.640 You could be in Wyoming.
00:33:09.660 I mean, you've got ranches as, you know, epic landscapes, as far as you can see, um, the
00:33:15.360 farming community here in the central Valley are hugely, um, supportive of everything to
00:33:20.520 do with our ag industry, all the parts of California, the kind of regular working class
00:33:24.940 parts of our state that are just not reflected in that elitist coastal culture.
00:33:30.300 Um, they just look down their noses at it.
00:33:32.280 And the fact that you've got people in charge in California who are actively crushing two
00:33:37.820 great industries, actually right here in the central Valley, our energy industry, oil
00:33:42.000 industry, as we talked about earlier, and our farming industry.
00:33:44.440 They, they, they're deliberately crushing it.
00:33:47.260 It's unthinkable, for example, the way that they're denying our farmers water to grow our
00:33:53.020 food.
00:33:53.720 And by the way, they're healthy food.
00:33:55.120 Speaking of movies, that, that is the, uh, that is the, uh, plot of Chinatown with Jack
00:33:59.200 Nicholson.
00:33:59.520 Exactly.
00:33:59.980 So, so, you know, they're deliberately doing that in the name of their ideology.
00:34:03.980 What is it?
00:34:04.360 He control the water.
00:34:06.220 He control the power.
00:34:07.420 You base it.
00:34:08.100 That's exactly right.
00:34:09.060 Well, that's, that's what's happening right now.
00:34:11.100 And they do, and they're crushing our farmers.
00:34:12.860 Imagine it's unthinkable that they would say in the name of climate, which actually would
00:34:16.780 be a stronger argument.
00:34:18.420 Well, you know what?
00:34:18.860 We're going to take electricity away from Google.
00:34:22.000 And we just, we're going to our, our, our episode yesterday is now going viral because
00:34:27.960 we talked about how these data centers that are now being built up.
00:34:31.840 And, you know, we see the rise of AI, we see the technology, we see the, you know, obviously
00:34:36.020 we see the, you know, the potential for good, but also how that's going to be, it's playing
00:34:41.100 a direct role in an attack on jobs in the United States.
00:34:44.740 Uh, and these energy resources, these energy resources, uh, and these data centers are pumping
00:34:50.500 up prices for Americans right now today.
00:34:53.780 And, and they're cutting, uh, another friend of mine has, um, uh, uh, uh, Alex Fasulo up
00:34:59.400 in upstate New York.
00:35:00.420 She's, you know, documenting some, uh, fields and grasslands that were previously protected,
00:35:05.800 but now we're being told that, Oh, the solar panels get a waiver from all of this because
00:35:10.720 they're friends with the greenies and they can put in whatever they want.
00:35:14.160 And they say, Oh, it won't have an effect.
00:35:15.600 But it's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen.
00:35:17.260 I, I made a video of it just the other week, you know, just not far, just up the road here
00:35:21.820 in the central Valley in the Westlands water district, federal water district, particularly
00:35:26.900 bad on this.
00:35:28.280 And at the previous regime, just like miles and miles of the most fertile farmland in
00:35:34.760 the world, ripped out, replaced with solar panels, shipped across the ocean, made in China.
00:35:40.360 Hold on.
00:35:40.840 Someone who's talked about this, the solar panel industries, uh, I think, and before we go to
00:35:45.880 break here, I want to bring in our special guest, ladies and gentlemen, Eric Trump joins
00:35:50.420 us now in human events daily.
00:35:51.840 Eric, do we have you?
00:35:53.640 Yeah, because it's the world I know a lot about.
00:35:56.480 Yeah.
00:35:56.840 I was just going to say, well, your father has spoken about this quite some length.
00:36:00.980 We're here in Bakersfield right now.
00:36:02.560 And, uh, and, and obviously this is something, you know, quite about as well.
00:36:08.000 Listen, energy is everything guys.
00:36:09.300 I mean, you track GDP, you know, GDP growth around the world and it's directly correlated to
00:36:13.520 energy costs, right?
00:36:14.300 At the end of the day, if you have, you know, if you want high energy, you know, GDP growth,
00:36:17.880 you need low energy costs and you can do that.
00:36:20.180 You take a state like New York, and I know that state as well as any human being.
00:36:23.100 And guess what?
00:36:23.560 They've shut down half of the nuclear power facilities in that state.
00:36:26.400 You wonder why, you know, you need to take land and you need to put solar farms out there
00:36:30.500 because they've shut down all the best energy supply.
00:36:33.640 They have a great, you know, nuclear facilities called Indian Point, just north of the city.
00:36:38.800 It's in Westchester County.
00:36:40.000 They literally shut the thing off.
00:36:41.840 And guess what?
00:36:42.560 Everybody's, you know, power supply costs went up by 40%.
00:36:45.000 And so, listen, New York's a mess.
00:36:46.880 New York is an absolute mess.
00:36:48.480 They've got the best natural gas under its, you know, under your feet.
00:36:51.340 You've got the Marcellus.
00:36:52.180 You've got the Utica.
00:36:53.020 You've got, you know, you've got some of the greatest natural gas reserves anywhere on
00:36:56.580 earth, you know, in, in New York and, and not far outside of the city.
00:37:00.780 That state could be so energy independent, but yet they resort to all these kind of crazy
00:37:04.540 measures.
00:37:04.920 And it's, uh, it's a shame that they do.
00:37:07.280 Yeah.
00:37:07.700 And it's exactly the same as this Steve here, Eric, and it's exactly the same here in California.
00:37:11.400 We have literally right under our feet.
00:37:13.540 We're in Bakersfield in Kern County, abundant natural gas.
00:37:16.540 We are now importing 90% of our natural gas in California and our natural gas.
00:37:21.620 Wait, wait, wait.
00:37:22.080 Tell them, tell them where you're reporting it from.
00:37:23.780 Well, the oil, the number one supplier of oil for California.
00:37:26.940 Now, Iraq, Eric, it's from Iraq.
00:37:29.120 They got oil, they're putting oil from Iraq to California, even though we have a hit.
00:37:34.180 Natural gas stations that could be providing affordable, reliable energy.
00:37:40.580 They are running them at 10 to 15% of capacity because they're obsessed with windmills and
00:37:45.860 solar.
00:37:46.300 It's so insane.
00:37:48.080 And it's just crushing, putting prices up.
00:37:50.120 Eric, respond to that.
00:37:51.280 Respond to that.
00:37:51.880 And we've got a, we're cutting out to break in 30 seconds here.
00:37:54.340 Yeah.
00:37:54.800 Yeah.
00:37:54.940 I mean, quickly, I want, I want everybody to take a look at the difference between New
00:37:58.260 York state and Pennsylvania.
00:37:59.300 You just go right on the opposite side of the river, right, right in between the states.
00:38:02.840 And the Pennsylvania side, where they actually exploit natural gas, they've got every single
00:38:06.460 gas station is new.
00:38:07.940 The, you know, the greatest CVS is, I mean, the infrastructure is perfect.
00:38:11.940 It's beautiful.
00:38:12.500 Then you go to the New York side and it's the exact opposite of that.
00:38:15.440 Pennsylvania has literally taken all the, the, the, the net worth and, you know, all the
00:38:19.100 wealth from New York.
00:38:20.340 It's the same natural gas.
00:38:21.720 I've seen it.
00:38:22.480 Right back.
00:38:22.860 It's the same natural gas.
00:38:23.740 Trump, Steve Hilton, Human Events.
00:38:25.160 Jack is a great guy.
00:38:28.940 He's written that fantastic book.
00:38:30.560 Everybody's talking about it.
00:38:31.800 Go get it.
00:38:32.900 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.
00:38:36.880 And we're going to turn it around and make our country great to get to him.
00:38:40.180 Amen.
00:38:43.740 Jack Zobik back live Bakersfield, California.
00:38:46.240 We're here with Steve Hilton in person.
00:38:48.940 We've got Eric Trump joining us.
00:38:51.000 And Eric, I just have to show, you know, I think people have mentioned, you know, your
00:38:56.200 father had a couple of choice truth socials earlier today and media, of course, is losing
00:39:01.220 their minds.
00:39:01.800 But I wanted to go and play the actual clip that he was responding to and then get your
00:39:09.260 reaction to it.
00:39:10.380 Guys, let's roll that clip of the Democrats right now.
00:39:12.340 I'm Senator Alyssa Slotkin.
00:39:14.480 Senator Mark Kelly.
00:39:15.780 Representative Chris Deluzio.
00:39:17.460 Congressman Maggie Goodlander.
00:39:19.020 Representative Chrissy Houlihan.
00:39:20.560 Congressman Jason Crowe.
00:39:21.960 I was a captain in the United States Navy.
00:39:23.940 Former CIA officer.
00:39:25.300 Former Navy.
00:39:26.080 Former paratrooper and Army Ranger.
00:39:27.940 Former intelligence officer.
00:39:29.520 Former Air Force.
00:39:30.600 We want to speak directly to members of the military and the intelligence community who
00:39:34.320 take risks each day to keep Americans safe.
00:39:36.980 We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now.
00:39:40.220 Americans trust their military.
00:39:41.720 But that trust is at risk.
00:39:43.540 This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals
00:39:48.220 against American citizens.
00:39:49.880 Like us, you all swore an oath to protect and defend this Constitution.
00:39:54.280 Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from right
00:39:58.440 here at home.
00:39:59.200 Our laws are clear.
00:40:00.540 You can refuse illegal orders.
00:40:02.960 You can refuse illegal orders.
00:40:05.080 You must refuse illegal orders.
00:40:07.220 No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our Constitution.
00:40:11.720 We know this is hard.
00:40:12.860 And that it's a difficult time to be a public servant.
00:40:15.220 But whether you're serving in the CIA.
00:40:16.960 The Army.
00:40:17.640 Our Navy.
00:40:18.200 The Air Force.
00:40:19.100 Your vigilance is critical.
00:40:21.100 And know that we have your back.
00:40:23.000 Because now, more than ever.
00:40:24.800 The American people need you.
00:40:26.600 We need you to stand up for our laws.
00:40:28.320 Our Constitution.
00:40:29.060 Eric Trump, what's your reaction to that?
00:40:35.240 I wrote an entire book about this.
00:40:37.400 It's called Under Siege.
00:40:39.440 It's called a story about how they weaponized every single department in the federal government.
00:40:45.580 They used the FBI.
00:40:47.940 They used the DOJ to spy on my father's campaign.
00:40:51.340 I mean, in the eyes of all those people right there, is that legal?
00:40:55.980 Are you allowed to spy on an adversary's campaign?
00:40:59.200 Are you allowed to do that only because my father is a Republican and not a Democrat and not on their team?
00:41:05.120 Should those people have, quote-unquote, refused that order?
00:41:08.200 How about breaking into Mar-a-Lago?
00:41:09.480 How about breaking through the gate at Mar-a-Lago with 30 FBI agents and going through Melania's drawers and going through Barron's closet and taking my father's medical records and taking, you know, protected under HIPAA and taking his attorney-client documents?
00:41:23.460 I mean, how about the Russia hoax?
00:41:25.260 I mean, how about the dirty dossier?
00:41:27.280 How about having Hillary Clinton literally fund a dirty dossier, which is totally lies, it's all slanderous, to try and affect her political opponent?
00:41:35.900 Or how about making up the lie that we had secret servers in the basement of Trump Tower that were communicating with the Kremlin?
00:41:42.500 The FBI knew 100% that it was not true.
00:41:46.120 I told them.
00:41:46.600 I invited them into the tower.
00:41:47.800 Go look at any room you want.
00:41:48.980 Go look for any servers you want.
00:41:51.020 It was all made up, and they let this perpetuate for a three-year period of time.
00:41:55.180 I mean, should they have refused the order to do that?
00:41:59.440 I mean, my answer would have been yes.
00:42:01.020 And then I get to hear this guy talk about a corrupt administration.
00:42:03.840 All they did was try and silence our family.
00:42:06.540 They tried to take us out.
00:42:07.640 They had 91 indictments against my father, 112 subpoena against me personally.
00:42:12.720 I became the most subpoenaed person in American history for never doing anything wrong.
00:42:17.220 Mugshots of my father every day, taking him off the ballot in Colorado.
00:42:21.500 You know, was that constitutional?
00:42:23.000 Was that their constitutional duty to take a Republican nominee off of a ballot in a state, not allow their people to speak?
00:42:30.420 How about Maine when they did the exact same thing?
00:42:32.120 How about censoring my father, you know, taking away his First Amendment right, taking him off of YouTube and Twitter and Instagram and Facebook, right?
00:42:41.000 I mean, literally, we had to create Truth Social in order to have any kind of voice.
00:42:46.200 You know, how about the gag orders from every single one of these corrupt judges?
00:42:49.120 How about the $400 million?
00:42:51.320 Well, now it's amazing.
00:42:53.200 And now you have them calling for the, I mean, to me, and I say this as I was in the Navy, I was an intelligence officer in the intelligence community.
00:43:02.800 I've never heard this kind of language from senators directly speaking to members of the military and members of the intelligence community.
00:43:11.600 Yeah, I mean, it's totally reckless and disgusting, but it's part of how they behave.
00:43:16.760 And what's amazing, just listening to Eric there, the way you lay it all out, it shows why your book is so necessary.
00:43:22.940 Because just the scale of it and the endless nature of it on and on and on in so many different ways, it's easy to forget, not least because in the second administration, so much is being accomplished on a policy front.
00:43:38.060 And we just focused on that all the time.
00:43:39.880 But just looking at what they've done, the question to Eric is, do you feel that we, you know, we're moving towards real accountability for all of that which happened to you and your family?
00:43:51.960 Steve, I think that's why they're petrified.
00:43:54.220 And let's, by the way, for all the, for all the, you know, service members who are, who are petrified, right?
00:43:59.300 I mean, isn't it kind of ironic that under Joe Biden, it was the worst recruitment.
00:44:03.600 I mean, they couldn't fill any of their quotas.
00:44:05.120 They were, you know, not only could they not fill their quotas, but they were actually removing all the standards because it was the only way that they could get people into the United States military.
00:44:12.300 Yet, you know, under my father and Pete's headset, isn't it really amazing that you have the greatest military recruitment in the history of the country?
00:44:20.260 But obviously you have the greatest military recruitment in the history of the country.
00:44:23.560 You did a total 180 change in, what, a period of seven months?
00:44:27.480 But you only have the greatest military recruitment in the history of our nation because people are petrified of this.
00:44:33.120 You know what they're not petrified of?
00:44:34.900 They have a commander in chief who will actually act.
00:44:37.200 They have a commander in chief who will, you know, stand behind them, not do what Barack Obama did, which prosecute every single person who took out a terrorist, right, and court-martial them.
00:44:46.220 I can't tell you how many of my friends were cart-martialed for doing, you know, their jobs.
00:44:51.600 Yet my father stands behind all these people.
00:44:53.300 And don't you think that the men and women in the United States military and our intelligence agencies wants a world where there are no wars?
00:45:00.700 How many wars has my father stopped at this point?
00:45:02.840 What, eight?
00:45:03.880 I mean, under my father's first term, they had fighter planes that couldn't even take off.
00:45:08.500 Pretty much the first thing that they told him when he went into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue was, sir, don't start any conflicts because we are out of ammunition.
00:45:15.880 The United States of America is out of ammunition.
00:45:17.960 And yet, you know, all of these service members are so petrified to have, you know, Donald Trump as commander in chief.
00:45:23.660 Give me a freaking break.
00:45:26.600 And it's just dangerous.
00:45:28.520 It's so dangerous because when you have a system like this, when you have a system that's become so adversarial that the politics don't end at the ballot box when they continue into the jury box.
00:45:42.980 And as I've said, and we've all, you know, experienced this recently with the loss of our friend, you get the jury box and then you get the bullet box.
00:45:50.960 And that's what's so dangerous.
00:45:53.420 And Eric, not just not just the loss of our friend, Charlie, but your own father had shots taken at him.
00:45:59.160 And Corey Campitore, of course, was murdered out in Butler.
00:46:02.500 Eric, do you think that they will stop on their own or do we need to do something to really put pressure back in the opposite direction?
00:46:11.160 Jack, of course they won't.
00:46:12.160 Their policies are horrible.
00:46:14.120 Their policies are horrible.
00:46:15.240 It's why we won 11 counties in California that had never been won before.
00:46:18.100 It's why we won the popular vote.
00:46:19.320 It's why we won every single swing state, right?
00:46:21.060 I mean, their policies are absolutely horrible.
00:46:23.760 So what do they do?
00:46:24.480 They resort to violence and they resort to weaponization and they resort to being obstructionists.
00:46:29.900 That's all the Democratic Party knows.
00:46:32.380 You know, they're not winning the American people based on having six foot five men swim in women's sports.
00:46:37.120 They're not winning hearts and minds with that, right?
00:46:39.200 I mean, they weren't winning hearts and minds of the military members because they had zero recruitment.
00:46:44.180 They were right.
00:46:45.040 None of their messages are like DEI is dead.
00:46:48.660 They didn't like people kneeling for the for the national anthem on NFL football teams across the country.
00:46:54.120 The Colin Kaepernick's right.
00:46:55.320 They didn't like the war on family.
00:46:57.680 They didn't like the war on faith.
00:46:59.000 They didn't like the war on our First Amendment rights, our freedom of speech.
00:47:03.740 They didn't like any of this.
00:47:05.040 They didn't like, you know, the revisionist history that was being taught in schools.
00:47:08.440 They didn't like what they were indoctrinating our kids with.
00:47:11.460 And that's why they lost.
00:47:13.120 And they have no party and they have no leadership and they have no damn message.
00:47:17.420 And so guess what they do?
00:47:18.380 They weaponize systems and they become obstructionists, which is exactly what you see right there.
00:47:23.080 And it is such a shame for the United States of America.
00:47:26.960 And by the way, these are the people that endlessly lecture us about protecting democracy and the rule of law.
00:47:34.120 And the shamelessness.
00:47:35.760 Guys, I'd love to keep the conversation.
00:47:38.480 We'll have to do this again sometime in person.
00:47:41.120 Eric, tell us again where to get the book.
00:47:45.080 Honestly, Barnes & Noble was playing lots of games.
00:47:47.200 I just I'm directing everybody to Amazon.
00:47:49.300 Number one New York Times bestseller.
00:47:50.620 And I think, Steve, you probably know New York Times did not exactly want to give me the number one book in the context of the number one book of the year.
00:47:57.400 Congratulations on that, man.
00:47:59.240 Incredibly proud of it.
00:48:00.500 We're selling like crazy.
00:48:01.760 Go get the book on Amazon.
00:48:03.420 Eric Trump, God bless to you and your family.
00:48:05.960 Steve Hilton, where can people go to get access and information on the campaign?
00:48:09.780 Steve Hilton for governor.com.
00:48:11.900 F-O-R.
00:48:12.540 Steve Hilton for governor.com.
00:48:13.980 We've got to build a grassroots movement to beat this Democrat machine.
00:48:17.560 God bless, man.
00:48:18.280 Great to see you, man.
00:48:18.900 Thank you so much for having us today.
00:48:20.020 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission.
00:48:21.940 Thank you.
