00:00:00.000Hey guys, it's Jack. I'm excited to let you know that finally the new edition of Unhuman Socialist Revolution is available for pre-order.
00:00:08.720It's coming out in October. You can get it at unhumansbook.com or amazon.com.
00:00:15.060Make sure to go and learn the tactics to crush the communist uprising.
00:00:23.580This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:30.000A commentator, international social media sensation that
00:00:37.000they make sure people are able to watch the execution and that people need to understand that there are serious consequences for these types of things.
00:00:51.880I mean, that's disgusting. What is he, mimicking ISIS executions?
00:00:56.280I mean, I understand that in this country we have the death penalty, but public executions is medieval.
00:01:04.560Secretary Hegseth was speaking to Real America's Voice, and he said that that execution by firing squad would take place on the 3rd of December.
00:01:13.840This administration is way off the rails.
00:01:17.720The folks who are in positions of power in this administration, and of course we know all these things, but their values are in disarray.
00:01:25.760In an interview, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth explained the reasoning for making Hassan's execution public.
00:01:32.080We'll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it's public,
00:01:35.580because people need to understand that there's serious consequences for these types of things.
00:03:48.600It is disgusting. It is absolutely reprehensible. And it is a cancer which must be torn off from our society and rendered asunder. You cannot allow a cancer to spread in your society.0.89
00:04:04.680That's what Thomas Aquinas said when he wrote in defense the death penalty. The expatiation of the right to life is not the subject of the state. It is the subject of the criminal, the evildoer, Pope Pius XII said. He wasn't even Pope that long ago.
00:04:24.240So this idea that I'm starting to see now, that I've seen the left crashing out, but I'm also starting to see some of these squishy conservatives, squishy Republicans getting weak-kneed, getting wobbly and saying, oh my gosh, I don't know if we should do this.
00:04:44.540Nidal San specifically went to an area of the base where he knew that soldiers, his fellow soldiers, would be unarmed.0.93
00:04:53.200He then went and started systematically killing them, shooting them all. A number of elderly folks, as well as, by the way, a young woman who was pregnant. She lay on the ground, curled up in the fetal position, begging for him to spare the life of her unborn child.
00:05:14.880he shot and killed them both and yes we do include both in that because that's the truth
00:05:23.520it's not a political issue that's the truth the unborn child is still a child and its life
00:05:29.120mattered so why then the public execution so that's the you know why then execution but why
00:05:36.120a public execution it's really simple because you have to send a message because a private
00:05:40.960execution doesn't send a message. That's words on a piece of paper, oh, this thing happened.
00:05:45.700Now, the public execution sends a message on a deep level to the next Nadal Hassan, to the next
00:05:54.260killer, the next rapist, the next murderer, the next terrorist, the next school shooter, whatever
00:06:00.100it is, that if you conduct an act so heinous and so disgusting and so evil as this, and especially,0.99
00:06:08.060by the way, if you do so as a member of the United States military, that you will be found
00:06:12.640and you will be given the ultimate justice. I want them to read through the list of the things
00:06:21.060that this animal did right before they give him exactly what he deserves on December 3rd,
00:06:46.820You know, we have an incredible thing.
00:06:48.220We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the
00:06:52.680guys who should be getting Pulisic.0.72
00:06:53.980Pete Hegstaff wanting a public execution, wanting to stream a execution by firing squad makes a lot of sense if you understand that he's a Christian nationalist and he is flothing at the mouth to have a holy war happen.
00:07:10.300Like, that's that's what this is. Like, they want to have a holy war happen.
00:07:13.880It serves his goals. It serves Trump's goals. It serves the Heritage Foundation's goals.
00:07:19.060and that's all this is but it's also insane like can we just have like a no thanks be normal
00:07:25.340all right we're back live here in chicago just playing some of the more reaction that's out
00:07:33.620there to the uh the news that the secretary broke here on human events daily yesterday and i
00:07:40.800understand there's people who've got differences of opinion i understand there's a spectrum out
00:07:45.580there, of course. I also understand that people are entitled to their opinions. This is the United
00:07:49.280States of America, after all. I'm also reminding people, though, at the same time, how wrong they
00:07:55.600are, because balance must be maintained in society. If we are going to have a society,
00:08:02.940if we're going to have civilization, the table stakes are simple. And I'll just say this,
00:08:07.220I'll say it now, and I plan to get into this later at the event, but for 25 years,
00:08:13.080We've only had public violence going in one direction in this country. Since 9-11, we've seen terrorists cause the destruction of the Twin Towers, people having to jump off of them or face a fiery inferno.
00:08:25.880We've seen terrorist attack after terrorist attack, people getting their legs blown off, people getting their limbs blown off and killed at the Boston bombing.
00:08:36.240We've seen horrendous murders every day, live streamed or viral videos that pop up every day you go on Twitter.
00:08:46.880We've seen three attempted assassinations of President Trump.
00:08:53.820And Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk was murdered in public, full view.
00:08:58.720we all saw that everybody saw that gory video and one day unfortunately his children will
00:09:05.760probably see that video it's just the nature of these things it's too much the scales have
00:09:11.920been tipped in one direction for far too long reciprocity is demanded it is an iron law
00:09:20.000universe the immutable law for every action that there is an equal and opposite reaction
00:09:25.620And that balance is what creates the conditions that allow for a civilization or a balanced society to be built in the first place.
00:09:34.500Because otherwise, you don't get that kind of justice.
00:09:36.960And if it's not public, ever, humans revert back to the factory settings.
00:09:45.300And what is that? Tribal war. It's tribal warfare.
00:09:47.980But of course, there's a lot going on. There's a lot happening. And it's all happening somehow in Texas. For whatever reason, God has given us a spotlight on Texas. And so in doing so, I want to bring on our next guest here. It is the Republican nominee for Texas Attorney General, State Senator Mays Middleton. Senator, do we have you?
00:10:11.940Hey, Jack. Thank you for having me on today.
00:10:13.660Thanks for coming on. So I'll throw it right to you. You know, obviously coming from Texas, I'm a, you know, a filthy Yankee right from Philadelphia.
00:10:24.220So far be it from me to say what the people of Texas want. But with the situation with Major Hassan, what is your response to Secretary Hegseth making that announcement regarding the public execution?
00:10:36.840Look, I support our secretary of war 100 percent. We have to have accountability. This is a terrorist killer. And I am and will be the law and order tough on crime, lock them up candidate for attorney general for all of Texas and deterrence works as well.
00:10:58.060We need to make sure we have these tough on crime policies where I'll point out the critics, right?
00:11:05.100The critics are the ones that actually supported defunding the police.
00:11:09.600They supported letting violent felons out on no cash bail, letting rapists out on no cash bail.
00:11:16.540They were the ones that caved in to the lawless mob in 2020 to open up the jails.
00:11:23.260And I'll point out also that James Tallarico was one of those, right?
00:11:27.440He voted to defund the police. He also voted to let violent felons out on no cash bail.
00:11:34.500So this is a clear distinction here. We are the Republicans are the party of law and order.
00:11:41.440And I fully support our secretary of war in this.
00:11:46.720Well, I couldn't agree more that it's it's it's a time like this.
00:11:51.340And by the way, guys, I think we have if we if you want to play this with with we have a clip of my good friend Charlie talking about this some time ago, guys, I believe we have is a clip to clip three.
00:12:07.400oh they're they're they're getting it set up and uh and and senator so of course as as we get that
00:12:18.900set up real quick it's it's this is something that charlie talked about as well that we all
00:12:22.360talked about it's not about but it's it's not something that people celebrate it's not something
00:12:26.140that we want obviously we want uh citizens to be able to live their lives in peace we want people
00:12:33.460to follow the law and go through their lives without having to, without harming others,
00:12:39.440without breaking these guardrails that we've set up for our society. But if we lose those guardrails,
00:12:44.760that's when a society has the ability to slip into complete chaos. And this is what it's about.
00:12:51.000Guys, are you saying we have it? This is my other problem with death penalty. It takes too long,
00:12:56.320too many appeals. It should be public. It should be quick. It should be televised.
00:13:01.080you could have like brought to you by coca-cola and no i'm not kidding by the way i would totally0.95
00:13:07.020tune in to see some pedo get their head chopped off convicted by a jury by the way that's gonna
00:13:12.340i'm talking about a real thing i'm talking i'm not talking all executions in bellers are by0.97
00:13:16.600firearm that's not a choice or anything andrew's saying don't make kids watch it and i think no
00:13:20.700the absolute i think at a certain age if you can drive you can watch it not even 16 if all of a
00:13:26.240sudden you look at some of these savages like in indiana there was this guy that went in and
00:13:29.920kill the pregnant woman and her three kids. And you know what? I want to watch that execution.
00:13:34.480That'll make my day better. I want to see him on a public block and get him be publicly executed.0.99
00:13:42.760And it's really as simple as that. That's Charlie Kirk. That's Charlie describing exactly what0.98
00:13:48.540happened. Senator, I want to get your get your response there, because Charlie's saying the same
00:13:52.480thing. Well, look, the death penalty for capital offenses has been the law for a long time in the
00:14:00.400state of Texas, and it must be enforced. And I, of course, fully support bringing back the firearm0.97
00:14:06.300squad as well. I mean, you've seen this again and again and again. The left, they think that our
00:14:13.060laws and our constitution are suggestions. They are not. And when you treat them that way, you
00:14:18.940have violated your oath of office and you need to be removed from office. And this is a fundamental
00:14:24.060role of government, right? Public safety. We're endowed by our creator with certain inalienable
00:14:29.640rights of life, liberty, and property. And why is life number one? Well, that's the most important
00:14:35.880one. And that's why we have to protect life by being tough on crime and making sure criminal
00:14:41.660terrorists like this are held accountable under the fullest extent of the law.
00:14:45.660no there's there's no question about it it's it's the fullest extent of the law and i i have to
00:14:52.520imagine by the way that uh that this probably isn't something that the people of texas take
00:14:57.520too lightly if i if if my read on the people of texas is what i think it is well that's exactly
00:15:04.580right i mean this is common sense as well i mean we got to support our police we got to make sure
00:15:10.860that criminals are locked up. We've got to make sure that we keep families safe. I mean,
00:15:15.160one of my goals is very simple. It's to make Texas the safest state in America to live and
00:15:20.600raise a family. Period. The end. You know, I've got four little ones and my wife and I are blessed
00:15:25.960with three boys, one little girl. And that's my daily reminder of what we're fighting for here.
00:15:34.060Now, you mentioned fighting, by the way, but one of the candidates I have to ask who's running
00:15:39.480statewide, you're running for attorney general, but another one of your statewide candidates on
00:15:42.460the other side of the aisle, James Tallarico, doesn't seem to be fighting very hard at all
00:15:46.080because he's now been missing, I think yesterday was 12 days, today 13 days off the trail. We're
00:15:52.300told he has the flu. I don't know any kind of flu that lasts that long, and people are really
00:15:56.940starting to raise questions. Do we know where James Tallarico is? He hasn't been seen in almost,
00:16:03.460what, two weeks now, which is outrageous that we're this close to the general election.
00:16:09.480Look, I'll tell you, I served in the Texas House for four years with this guy.
00:16:14.840And there are atheists that I know that are more Christian than him.
00:16:18.780And, you know, you're close to November here when all of these socialists are suddenly saying that they're moderate.
00:16:25.100They're all saying they're moderate now. These are people that have voted with AOC nearly 100 percent of the time.
00:16:32.340So I'm not buying it. And I don't think the people of Texas are going to buy it either.
00:16:39.480And at the end of the day, if you're someone who's running for public office, you have the duty, again, talking about accountability, you have the duty to be accountable to the people you represent.
00:16:52.700How can you be a United States senator?
00:16:54.220You'd go missing for two weeks and there's no word other than some blanket statement out from the campaign.
00:18:14.020All right. Jack Posovic, right back here.

00:21:19.220chatting, as we have been talking, we now just got the news, incredible, incredible news breaking
00:21:27.840across all of the media that sources have confirmed that Katie Zachariah has been offered
00:21:35.500the position of being President Trump's next press secretary. So my good friend, Katie Zachariah,
00:21:43.160of course, as you know, she's been here on Human Events many, many times. I've always said when
00:21:49.160asked publicly who should be the next press secretary that it should be Katie Zachariah.
00:21:53.240She's absolutely someone who's got the chops. She's got the know-how. She's someone who understands this completely. And I couldn't be more thrilled to hear this news and to hear the congratulations.0.98
00:22:05.220So now you've got you've got Benny Ray Harmony from Rav, also a Human Events alum, being offered the position as assistant press secretary.
00:22:13.500Now you've got Katie Zachariah, an incredible MAGA, America First Patriot, someone who has, again, extensive knowledge, is going on liberal media, is going on conservative media, absolutely knows what she is doing and can handle the job without question.
00:22:29.580So we're working on tracking her down because, of course, they're reporting that she's been offered the job, but we haven't heard yet whether or not she has accepted the job.
00:22:42.940So we will see a little bit of will she, won't she on a Friday here on Human Events.
00:22:49.080But again, they could I'm looking out across the conservative landscape and really, Katie Zachariah, she is the woman for the job.
00:22:58.620There's no question in my mind that she would absolutely crush it. There's no question in my mind that she would absolutely perform to beyond expectations and certainly, excuse me, certainly excel any of what anyone's thinking.
00:23:14.500And, of course, it's not a replacement for Caroline Leavitt because Caroline, of course, did a phenomenal job while she was there.
00:23:21.640No one could ever replace or replicate the work that she did.
00:23:25.840Caroline, of course, taking some much-needed time off.0.98
00:23:28.900Again, she served throughout all of 2024 on the campaign as the press secretary.
00:23:33.620I believe she started in 2023 even, then moved to the White House for all of 2025, the majority of 2026.
00:23:42.180She's got two little kids at home.0.99
00:23:43.620So what better time for her to say, you know what, take some much needed rest and be home with her little ones.
00:23:51.920So just an incredible time and incredible news with with with Katie's guys.
00:23:59.360I know we were working. Do we have a clip of Katie's on the show here?
00:24:02.760I think we were working on getting one up. Do we have one of those?
00:24:07.680OK, they're going to pull one up now. Of course, that just happened.
00:24:10.840And, you know, we're doing it live, folks.
00:24:44.880Something that you love that's not family or friends.
00:24:50.180I love, I'm just saying this because it's on my mind, the trans children.
00:24:57.920He said off the top of his head that he loves trans children.
00:25:03.500You know, it's something that you love outside of politics.
00:25:06.660I might say Polish food like that. That's probably like, you know, the first thing that I'm going to think of off the top of my head that, you know, like, like non-political, like Philadelphia Eagles.
00:25:16.400I don't know. I know I'm in Chicago. Can't say that right now. But, you know, again, just front of mind, if you tell me something that's outside of politics, gosh, I don't know, Battlestar Galactica, Wawa again.
00:25:30.120But James Tallarico, the first thing he says is trans children.
00:25:59.520Look, things happen, man. Things happen. Thoughts and prayers, James. Thoughts and prayers. And at the end of the day, it's not our job to determine where he is or put that out. It's his campaign's job. It's his office's job. And he has to tell the people of Texas whether or not he's able to serve as a United States senator.
00:26:20.000Where, yes, by the way, that is a full-time position, James, not a part-time position.
00:26:26.060Right back, Jack, the subject of four human events here only on Joe Marker's Voice.
00:26:32.760On the faculty of one university is one communist who may.1.00
00:26:37.600watch the downgrade the downfall of society where women you know we started and i'm going to be
00:27:00.280very clear jack this started with the advocation of abortion this is started in 1973 and has been0.93
00:27:07.240downstream ever since, that when women are championing the death and murder and the ability0.54
00:27:13.720to murder their children from conception all the way through, when does humanity begin and end?0.96
00:27:19.820And this is the slippery slope that everyone starts, oh, you can't keep saying that. It's
00:27:24.240conception. It's why the Supreme Court in many ways overturned, other than the fact that it was
00:27:29.480unconstitutional, that the federal government never gave grounds for abortion and carved it
00:27:35.120out it's why Dobbs happened because Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey were not good law
00:27:40.680not valid law but it's the slippery slope of viability that they tried to go down it's like
00:27:46.140if you don't value life from the beginning Jack then you get to the point of birth and beyond
00:27:52.300and the women now are defending the murder of innocent children
00:27:57.660All right, folks, there was Katie Zachariah appearing on the program just a couple of
00:28:05.420weeks ago, talking about the Lindsey Clancy case. So incredible news there. But I'm here in Chicago
00:28:12.060and we're sitting down with the president of the Chicago Thinker, Eduardo Vieira. Eduardo,
00:28:17.960thank you so much for having me. Thanks for having me. Welcome to the program.
00:28:24.280Well, tell us. So tell us a little bit about the event that's going to take place later today at the university with myself and Tim Poole and and also this story about how there was kind of like almost a cancellation attempt.
00:28:39.020Yeah, totally. I mean, thanks for having me again.
00:28:41.040And so the Chicago Thinker is UChicago's conservative and libertarian publication.
00:28:45.480And we're putting this event on right at the beginning of the school year to bring in conservative voices on campus and have that perspective, which is often neglected at universities to be present for students.
00:28:56.240So we invited Tim Poole. We invited, of course, you.
00:29:00.120And Tim actually wanted to have kind of a different voice on stage.
00:29:03.600So we're going to have Luke Beasley, too.
00:29:05.800OK. And that's the goal of the event is to have conservative voices on campus.
00:29:10.500and that's fine that's exactly fine right and by the way by the way i should i'd be remiss if i
00:29:15.500didn't ask who was one of the founders of the chicago thinker evita evita duffy evita duffy
00:29:21.040my are my favorite anti-communist so uh and i can remember i'm you guys had like a brian stelter
00:29:27.680came to town and you guys were uh we're tearing him up yeah brian came in talking talking about
00:29:33.100fox news and all how fox news is all about misinformation information and one of our
00:29:37.620member just came up to him hey uh cnn is just as bad or even worse because you've done nothing but
00:29:42.740cover lies over the last few years what about that and he just lied through his teeth about the whole
00:29:46.660thing so that was good coverage for us i mean it's easy when there's someone's i i i remember i
00:29:52.240remember that that whole thing and i said i remember thinking my gosh who are these guys
00:29:57.480over in chicago we need to get more of them out and of course then i found out evita was uh you
00:30:03.020know one of the uh co-conspirators that um and i said oh well this makes complete sense to me so
00:30:08.940so okay that so that was the event and sounds like a you know perfectly um perfectly normal
00:30:14.900event to be held what happened when you went through the the you know production process with
00:30:21.080the school because i saw some reporting the school was or some officials low level were saying that
00:30:26.620it shouldn't happen yeah so we booked this auditorium at the university of chicago we
00:30:29.960I signed a contract, all good, no questions asked.
00:30:32.500And then about a week and a half later, I get an email from the organizer of the venue
00:30:36.260saying, hey, I'm sorry, it came up to me that this event might be controversial, instead
00:30:40.680of the email, and we're going to have to cancel it.
00:30:59.960and so so so they came back and said there was a level of contrary you have no idea
00:31:05.040do you ever find where that initial report of controversy came from i don't exactly know i just
00:31:11.420know it came up to her to some extent what i think was was some superior in the auditorium was a
00:31:15.820little scared of having us hosting there and then put the order down to her and track us out because
00:31:22.160it's typically when i've when i've encountered this before and and i've every time i deal with
00:31:27.140universities this is something that commonly happens of course with turning point usa this
00:31:32.160happens to us all the time all over the place that we don't get a permit or there's an issue
00:31:37.320with something with campus we're holding the event and it usually and a lot of the time not
00:31:42.720always but a lot of the time it does come down to one person it has an issue with it and then
00:31:48.240trying to exercise some kind of uh procedural leverage or bureaucratic leverage rather than
00:31:55.680publicly saying what the reason is the other one to hit you with is the security fee they'll say
00:31:59.580right there's an extra need for a security fee which of course by the way you know i'm i'm always
00:32:04.760personally happy personally happy to help with but a lot of the times there there are fees that
00:32:09.000your organizations have that can cover it and in my email back i said if there's any security fee
00:32:13.460we got to pay we happy to pay for it right like we that was not a factor at all yeah yeah i didn't
00:32:18.880even know that you said that but that's that's always what they try to do they always exactly
00:32:22.360Right. Yeah. And so what was the final what was the final disposition?
00:32:26.480Obviously, we're here. Right. Right. So how did it move?
00:32:29.060So what happened was once we realized that the event person was going to do anything about it, we came up to the university administration.
00:32:34.820And I'm not sure you're familiar, but the University of Chicago is the writer of the Chicago principles.
00:32:39.380The principles of free speech are it's ingrained in the university's identity.
00:32:43.880Right. And I came up to the administration. I'm like, hey, this happened to us.
00:32:47.360They're trying to cancel it because of our conservative ideology.
00:32:49.780and either you're going to give us an event back or i'm going to go to to fire you know the free
00:32:55.900speech uh organization which places you chicago number one free speech school in the country by
00:33:00.340the way and i'll tell them what happened and we'll see what happens from there so i emailed
00:33:04.780the university back and forth a few times five days later they call super apologetic hey eduardo
00:33:10.680i'm so sorry everything happened to you uh you can have your venue back with all our apologies
00:33:15.280This is not within university principle, but again, this is after everything had been happening in the first place.
00:33:21.260Well, and at the same time, you're running an organization, you're trying to run a, you're trying to build a crowd, you're trying to build an audience, you're trying to get people together.
00:33:31.760Obviously, when you don't know if the venue is set, it's impossible to then go on and do all the other things you need to do when you're running an event.
00:33:39.040Yeah, totally. And we were back and forth with the administration for a couple of weeks on that, just trying to see what we could do.
00:33:46.240But at that point in time, we didn't know if we're going to have an event at all.
00:33:48.980Right. So that was obviously a lot of a lot of things that we had to deal with at the same time.
00:33:53.920Well, it's great to hear that free speech prevailed, though.
00:33:56.220It's a victory for free speech, even having the event.
00:33:59.600And it really comes to speak as a question for look, you know, I was I was talking about Charlie Kirk earlier in the show.
00:34:04.880got you know that that shirt on uh today and you know it it is one of the things that charlie
00:34:12.000lived his life for in service of the ideal of freedom of speech and and part of that of course
00:34:18.300is debate and if sure if something is controversial then where better to have that discussion than
00:34:26.260communication done on a college campus of course i mean big part of the event today is going to be
00:34:32.140exactly q a we want students from whatever part of the political spectrum to come to the mic and
00:34:36.900ask questions yeah that's part of what we're doing great so it's totally about free speech
00:34:41.460and totally about well and that's that's what that's that's what the rule was you know charlie
00:34:45.300would always say that you know if you disagree you come to the front of the line right here's
00:34:49.620someone who's got a hard question a tough question uh you know someone said something that you
00:34:54.520disagree with come right to the front come right to the front and ask your question and that was
00:34:59.860But those were the ones that he wanted to really get into and to see if he could find out what made that person tick, if you understood how that person thought.
00:35:10.980And, you know, perhaps, you know, maybe if it's if it's not very well developed and it turns into like, you know, one of those viral clips or something and they get into a back and forth.
00:35:19.740But, you know, I think that, you know, thinking about how Charlie had done those and I'm starting to do more of them myself now is that, obviously like today, that Charlie would try to talk beyond the issue and try to connect with the person as an individual and try to say to them, you know, what makes you care about this issue so much?
00:35:44.920and what is it that you know here we are you've lived your whole life I'll live my whole life
00:35:50.420what brought us to this moment together where this was the issue that you want to join and
00:35:54.380I really see him trying to reach out to the individual even if they disagree even if they're
00:35:58.260you know he's conservative they're a liberal whatever it is that you know we could all be
00:36:02.280human beings and I think that something that I've learned more just in this past year since losing
00:36:08.680charlie that he has he had always said we need to bring people together physically because in a world
00:36:18.600where people are are living behind screens all the time uh they have their cell phones they have
00:36:25.240tiktok they have x instagram snapchat whatever it is that it's so easy to dismiss somebody's
00:36:31.720and as a human being because it's dehumanizing because you're separated from the individual
00:36:36.720But what Charlie always did, bring people together, bring people on campus, put people in the same room and make them confront each other's humanity.
00:36:45.440And I think that there's actually something that's quite useful for that.
00:36:49.560And I think that there's something that's quite honest about that.
00:36:52.680And it produces a better discussion than you were ever going to get if we're just yelling at each other over screens.
00:36:58.620So when you cancel an event that's set up like that, then you cancel the ability for people to actually have that kind of communication and dialogue, which obviously is the reason we have freedom to begin with.
00:37:13.440All right, coming up on a quick break, but we're going to be on here one more segment.
00:37:17.940We're going to be, of course, later today at the University of Chicago.
00:37:23.340Tim Poole, Luke Beasley, and myself, Chicago Thinker, is our host.
00:37:28.940And we're very gracious to be here today.
00:38:05.260Yes, the formerly pregnant female.0.64
00:38:07.700That's what we have to say these days, formerly pregnant female.
00:38:10.000Katie Zachariah joins us four times, right?
00:38:14.500Jack Posobiec here, Chicago, Illinois, going to the University of Chicago later today.
00:38:21.780We're on with the president of the Chicago Thinker, Eduardo Rivera.
00:38:25.800And, of course, that was me and my good formerly pregnant friend, Katie Zachariah.
00:38:34.040The reason, of course, we were talking about that, that was during the Lindsay Clancy.
00:38:38.660It was the Lindsay Clancy debate was going on. And, you know, they were saying that they were saying that you can't have an opinion on this unless you had ever been pregnant yourself.
00:38:49.400So, of course, I responded, I can have an opinion on this because men can be pregnant now, because of course, according to your own your own rules.
00:38:56.680But, of course, I wanted to bring on Katie there, and I think we had some other, I think I had my wife on, and our good friend Libby Emmons, the editor-in-chief of Human Events and the Postmillennial, on these formerly pregnant individuals, on as subject matter experts on postpartum depression.
00:39:12.760But Katie Zachariah offered the position of White House press secretary.
00:39:19.020It is being said. It is being said today, which is just absolutely incredible.
00:39:26.560Absolutely terrific. And, you know, just just a wonderful, wonderful thing.
00:39:34.500But but so I wanted to get into you, get in with you regarding the event to tell people if folks want to watch the event later,
00:39:42.140Tell them, give them the time, tell them where they can watch it, watch the live stream.
00:39:46.480I'm sure sparks will be flying later today.
00:39:49.480So where can people go to get all the action?
00:42:50.360What about, you know, some of the bigger issues?
00:42:52.380One of the ones that I get when I've been going around on campus a lot of places in the country is people ask about Iran.
00:42:58.380I ask about the situation there. Obviously, I was just with the secretary a couple of days ago.
00:43:04.460I also asked him about that in my interview. Of course, nobody, you know, the news that he made at the end of the interview, you know, when it was, drew everyone's attention a little bit more.
00:43:16.540But I did also ask him about that. And I asked him about the end of that.
00:43:20.560Let me ask you just just as a representative here of the University of Chicago, that when you talk to folks about it, do you, you know, we see in the polls that typically 18 to 24 year old crowd is pretty solidly against it.
00:43:33.120Is that what you see here on campus? Do you get do you get a spectrum? What would you read?
00:43:37.900I think on campus, the crowd is pretty negative on the war.
00:43:40.600OK, I think that it's just in general among young people, especially in college campuses, because of the liberal.
