A high school in Georgia is on lockdown after reports of gunfire, a former top aide to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is set to be arraigned for allegedly acting on behalf of the Chinese government, and the FBI arrests Linda Sun and her husband, Chris Hugh.
00:01:57.820She's advocating for some policies that are towards the direction of democratic socialism, let's say.
00:02:03.100There's a lot of people that kind of know the way government works, and they say, well, none of those policies are going to actually come to reality.
00:02:09.920It could come to reality. Look, I mean, she came out with price control. It's been tried like 121 different times at different places over the years, and it's never worked once. It leads to communism. It leads to socialism.
00:02:22.960A former top aide to New York Governor Kathy Hochul is set to be arraigned in just a matter of minutes for allegedly acting on behalf of the Chinese government.
00:02:32.180The FBI arrested Linda Sun and her husband, Chris Hugh.
00:02:35.840Federal prosecutors say Linda Sun was working as an agent for the Chinese government.
00:02:40.680They say, in exchange, Sun and her husband wandered millions of dollars out of China.
00:02:46.100All right, Jack, so we're back live here. Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C., ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:02:55.260Today is September 4th, 2024. Anno, Domini.
00:03:03.380The common momentum, did it ever actually exist?
00:03:06.920Well, it certainly existed in the media, and it existed in the sense that the media was using the ramp up to try to claim that common momentum was sweeping the nation.
00:03:18.100Well, what you really saw was base Democrats.
00:03:20.380So when she was nominated, when Bill Biden dropped out and she was nominated, what you saw were base Democrats that got on board, people who were the hardcore base of the left, saying that they weren't for Biden because they saw him basically pull his Skeletor Act up at the debate.
00:03:36.520And then they came in saying, all right, we're going to support Kamala Harris.
00:05:12.360I have some problems with this, but I do see Georgia down there.
00:05:16.320Georgia, as Democrat, I think that Georgia is going to be closer.
00:05:21.280I think that it's winnable for Trump, but I think it's going to be very, very close, a lot closer than it was when Joe Biden was the nominee.
00:05:27.640This highlights the importance of three states, Nevada, Georgia, and then also look which state you see in red in the Rust Belt up there.
00:06:09.960Ladies and gentlemen, one of the best ways that you can support us here at Human Events and the work that we do is subscribing to us on our Rumble channel.
00:07:15.900Imagine what four years of socialist policy will do to interest rates, debt, and labor disputes.
00:07:19.960You need something stable so that you can take a breath and know that the money you earned and the retirement you worked for is...
00:07:27.300You have to proactively protect your assets so when the supply chains get rocked and Biden decides to print a few more trillion-dollar bills, it won't impact your family's bottom line.
00:07:37.800And the only way to do that is with the one true beacon of stability that so many patriots use to preserve their wealth.
00:07:45.760Over the last five years, it's almost doubled in value.
00:07:47.800With the way things are looking, the sky is the limit.
00:07:50.440Allegiance Gold has done things the right way from the beginning, so it's no coincidence they've earned the highest trust ratings in the precious metals industry.
00:07:57.800Five stars and trust link, an A-plus with the Better Business Bureau.
00:08:01.160Allegiance Gold cannot protect your IRA or 401K with physical gold and silver, or you can have it delivered securely to your doorstep.

00:08:16.780So, we're still waiting to see whether or not the SAVE Act will be passed through the house, put into the CR.
00:08:37.820By the way, I keep saying this, SAVE Act or shut it down, SAVE Act or shut it down.
00:09:11.220It's absolutely critical to securing victory come November.
00:09:16.800And for all the reasons that we talked about, this is going to come down to a knife fight.
00:09:20.880So, the pressure on Elon now is critical, and the pressure from the regime is also critical.
00:09:27.700Darren Beattie, someone who understands indelibly the importance of regime politics, joins us now from Revolver News.
00:09:34.660Darren, with all these things going on, we just went through, we just went around the horn in terms of the map, how the swing states are at this sort of 50-50 status.
00:09:44.260It's really coming down to the wire in so many of these states, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada.
00:09:52.300It really seems as though just a couple of thousand votes one way or another in any of these states could swing the entire direction of our system.
00:10:02.540And given that it's so close, what do you expect the regime to do in such a situation as we find ourselves?
00:10:12.960Well, you know, it's really hard to say.
00:10:15.140We're in a home stretch, but the home stretch is quite a long ways in political terms.
00:10:21.220You know, we're just barely into September, let alone October, and, you know, that's essentially an eternity in terms of a, you know, campaign, a span, given how accelerated things are.
00:10:36.380And, you know, I think things have largely reset.
00:10:40.080You know, we were talking earlier, you mentioned you think Kamala's sort of momentum,
00:10:44.900the brat summer that she enjoyed such that it was, that's kind of over.
00:10:55.760They're neck and neck, they're steady, and it feels almost like the quiet before the storm.
00:11:01.460And obviously, the next major event, which, you know, anything could happen,
00:11:07.780the next major event is probably going to be the upcoming debate.
00:11:11.940So I think that will really set the momentum for this next stage of the election.
00:11:18.420One of the things that we talked about the other day on the show is that one of the things that one of the reasons that the debates have become so important
00:11:28.280isn't necessarily the content of the debate, but the fact that because people live in so many information silos now,
00:11:35.840particularly people that are only ever exposed to the mainstream media,
00:11:38.760that because they won't go on X, they've all, a lot of the left have flooded or have left X and flooded these,
00:11:46.680this bevy of, you know, competitors like Blue Sky and Mastodon and all this nonsense,
00:11:50.920that the debate is the only time where they ever actually are forced to view the other candidate
00:11:58.640outside of their echo chamber and outside of that silo.
00:12:02.460And so it's the only time where all of the various echo chambers and silos and ghettos and whatever you want to call them,
00:12:10.240actually all commence at one and congeal into one spot.
00:18:26.820I rolled with bloods and them boys had a saying.
00:18:30.580You can't be listening to all that slappy whack, trim out his outlet, it's a bam ship, nippy bam bam, like Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:18:40.560Jack Posobiec back live, Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.
00:18:44.100Americans are tired and they're frustrated by a stalling economy.
00:18:49.440They're tired and frustrated by the inflation, the endless wars, the relentless assault on our values.
00:18:56.860They are the ones who are sick of what's going on.
00:19:01.240But thankfully, let me tell you something.
00:19:02.480Thankfully, there's companies like Patriot Mobile and still believe in America and our constitution.
00:19:07.940I'm proud to partner with Patriot Mobile because Patriot Mobile is on the front lines.
00:19:12.180They fight for the First and Second Amendments and are military and first responder heroes.
00:22:36.940It got absorbed into the Democrat Party.
00:22:40.240And, of course, and unfortunately, there were a lot of never-Trumpers that sort of rebranded themselves as pro-Trump.
00:22:47.160And they basically presented a view of Trump in America first that was basically a repackaged version of a lot of the never-Trump policies.
00:22:57.220So there are sort of amorphous in a variety of different groups here.
00:23:01.840Now, never-Trump is almost nothing but a footnote.
00:23:06.620But, you know, there are many senses in which this argument is wrong.
00:23:10.900These people are so desperate to get rid of Trump.
00:23:12.960The irony is, if Trump were to lose, that's not going to be the end.
00:23:19.140I think, you know, he could run in another four years.
00:23:30.560They're assuming that if he loses, it's over when, actually, ironically, like, the best thing for these guys, we have very different—I think I'd love for Trump to be president, you know, in perpetuity.
00:23:42.360But the best thing for these guys, if Trump would win, because that would mean it would just be another four years.
00:23:48.060But if there's a loss, then Trump is going—as long as he's around, he's going to be the leader of the Republican Party.
00:24:18.100She's currently the co-chair of the party.
00:24:20.080She hails from North Carolina, a great state with a huge name like that.
00:24:24.500That would be a—there's been a ton of talk, by the way, grassroots campaign to potentially try to draft her for Senate a couple of years back.
00:24:32.640Barron Trump just started over at NYU today.
00:24:36.280Many of these guys, by the way, are, I believe, currently—I guess their residents would be in Florida.
00:24:42.480So, you know, I don't know, for all those Florida governors and senators and the Rick Scotts and the Marco Rubios and whoever the current governor of Florida is, I would just say, you know, keep in mind, keep in mind that there's a plot of other people that could be eyeing up those seats.
00:24:59.520And so this idea that—Darren, it goes back to what they've been trying to do since 2016.
00:25:06.020They want to have either Trumpism without Trump.
00:25:12.440Then they tried to do Trumpism without Trump with DeSantis.
00:25:15.900And now they're going to attempt to do this third act.
00:25:18.960Well, they will get—I guarantee you, by the way, this will happen, that you will have people from the establishment, establishment Republican types coming up saying, I'm a Donald Trump Republican, and that's why we have to invade Syria.
00:25:29.840I'm a Donald Trump Republican, and that's why we have to open them to—which is just a couple of guest workers.
00:25:34.860I'm a Donald Trump Republican, and that's why war with Iran is the most important thing.
00:25:39.820Nikki Haley is going to try to rebrand herself.
00:25:42.360And by the way, we were very close to a potential Nikki Haley nomination.
00:25:46.140Producer Fahs has this whole scenario.
00:25:50.240That bullet—God forbid, if that bullet had connected, there is a very real chance that Nikki—because I always point out the timing there was critical.
00:26:01.140The assassination attempt occurred before he named his BP choice.
00:26:06.880So it was a total blank slate at that moment.
00:26:10.700So it was perfectly set up for a Nikki Haley coronation.
00:26:21.260And so now, unfortunately for the regime, unless, you know, God forbid, it's still very possible they could attempt another thing.
00:26:28.820I think it's less likely because a second attempt is going to look a thousand times more suspicious than a first attempt that could be presented as a one-off.
00:26:42.000So they may very well get very desperate in the home stretch.
00:26:47.600Well, and by the way, it's interesting you mention that.
00:26:50.540So we are releasing the new book, Bulletproof, and we go through, in excruciating detail, the publicly known story about what happened during those nine days between the assassination attempt itself and, in fact, that J.D. Vance and President Trump had had breakfast that morning at a meeting down at Mar-a-Lago.
00:27:11.440Then he flies to Pennsylvania, the assassination attempt takes place, and then after that is when he goes back to Bedminster, then he flies to Milwaukee for the RNC.
00:27:26.300And this, and who is sitting next to him on the plane, it's Lindsey Graham.
00:27:30.820And what does Lindsey Graham, and I knew this at the time, but Tucker Carlson came out and, you know, really exposed it.
00:27:37.140And we go through the entire thing in the book where Lindsey Graham spent that entire flight.
00:27:41.460Remember, Donald Trump has been shot just hours before.
00:27:44.700And Lindsey Graham spends the entire time telling him to not pick J.D. Vance as his vice president.
00:27:52.220Of all the things, right, of all the things to focus on, why was it that in those critical moments that the push was on to remove J.D. Vance from the ticket?
00:28:01.960And, by the way, this question of when exactly was Nikki Haley added to the speaker lineup?
00:28:09.060Because we know that she and Ron DeSantis were not on the original list.
00:28:14.300Then suddenly she appears on the list, and there's that viral clip, of course, of Trump sitting with J.D. Vance and saying,
00:28:21.800because she's on stage saying Trump wanted me to be here, and he turns to J.D., and they can do the sort of the lip reading,
00:28:28.140and he says, she has to be here, it wasn't me.
00:28:31.020And that went super viral, and, you know, J.D. laughs.
00:28:36.020But so the theory, though, is it actually starts to get a couple of legs when you question when exactly was she added to this lineup,
00:28:46.300and was it potentially or were there potentially people and whispers in the background that she would either be put on as a VP
00:28:54.140or potentially even a higher position?
00:28:57.220Yeah, I mean, it's so dark to think, but that really was the most elegant solution from the regime's standpoint.
00:29:07.220There had been no VP named, so they take Trump out, and they would happily allow Nikki Haley running as this kind of moderate but, you know, pro-Trump person,
00:29:22.380they would happily allow her to defeat the then, you know, just senile Biden.
00:29:31.340They would have been very happy for that to happen, and a lot of, you know, they would count on a lot of the American electorate to say,
00:29:40.560oh, well, you know, Nikki Haley won, so I guess it's not rigged after all.
00:29:44.120So it's, you know, I'm not, who knows what really, you know, took place, but there is a certain elegance into how that scenario would solve all of the regime's problems at once.
00:29:59.500And, by the way, we're also told, of course, that partially one of the things that galvanized Trump's support for J.D. Vance was the assassination attempt.
00:30:11.700Why? Because J.D. Vance as president is something that would anger the regime even more than Trump as president.
00:30:18.900Darren, schedule opened up here for us. Are you able to hang on?
00:31:30.080Potential, as we talked about just now, Nikki Haley candidacy.
00:31:33.860I'm sure Don Jr., obviously, would have been also a name bandied around.
00:31:38.240It's like, Don, you almost had to run for president this year, buddy.
00:31:42.120And then third, of course, though, that Joe Biden, I argue, would not have had to drop out had that shot been one inch, I guess, to the right.
00:31:54.300Because they they happily would have left their puppet up there and they would have let him lose to a Nikki Haley type or potentially keep him in office.
00:32:02.600To understand the true nature of our system, you have to understand that Joe Biden never would have dropped out had that shot hit.
00:32:31.920There was tremendous resistance to Kamala.
00:32:36.960And Biden didn't want to step down either.
00:32:40.300So it was while Biden was still there after his disastrous debate performance, it seemed like it was too late for the Democrats to do anything about it.
00:33:14.600So if they let her win, they could say, see, the system isn't rigged after all.
00:33:18.940The most elegant solution in the world.
00:33:21.580And they came within millimeters of effectuating that solution.
00:33:28.420And, you know, it's hard not to seriously entertain this when you see how everything lined up and when you see just the concatenation of utterly implausible things that happened at Butler.
00:33:43.240That really defy, you know, defy my best efforts to present an alternative innocent explanation for how that all could have transpired.
00:33:54.580So I'm actually going to pull something up to you, and I said this on Alex Stein last night, and I haven't said it here on Human Events, but I'll say it anyway.
00:34:04.200So we took the, what we call the 12, for the book, we took the 12 independent security failures at, of the Secret Service and law enforcement that day, and we actually inputted the entire thing into basically a probability matrix.
00:34:19.520And then we put that into chat GPT for Omni.
00:34:22.740So GPT for Omni is the latest iteration of GPT from OpenAI.
00:34:27.760And we input the entire thing in there, and we said, what do you think of this?
00:34:31.620Is it possible that all of this happened just by chance?
00:34:37.580This is not my co-author, Joshua Lysak.
00:34:39.320This is GPT for Omni, the response that came out, the summary.
00:34:43.780In summary, almost any event you can imagine, no matter how rare, is far more likely than the occurrence of 12 independent security failures on the same day as an armed man with malicious intent with a combined probability of one in one septillion.
00:35:01.840This extreme rarity emphasizes how statistically improbable such an event is, suggesting that if it occurs, it might not be due to mere chance.
00:35:17.400That's OpenAI's GPT for Omni, the latest iteration.
00:35:22.480So Darren, again, just from a probability standpoint to what you say, the computer gave us the same analysis.
00:35:30.180To imagine when you go through this again and again and again, and I understand that the Senate offices have been putting out, and Senator Hawley's out there saying, well, you know, it turns out that there were inefficient officers and agents from the DHS that were augmenting.
00:35:45.860And all of these questions about why wasn't there a better liaison between the local law enforcement and the senior Secret Service, who obviously run such events.
00:35:54.900But the bigger question, I think, is just simple.
00:35:58.840Why wasn't President Trump given a full presidential detail for an open outdoor rally?
00:36:07.740But Darren, shouldn't the salient question be why wasn't he given a full detail that day from the start?
00:36:12.700That's certainly one of the questions.
00:36:16.020To me, it's like, even more than that, do you even need a full detail?
00:36:21.320Let's say that you're short on security.
00:36:24.460Like, you're short on security, so maybe you overlook some things that are, you know, less likely.
00:36:32.340You know, you cover the most important places first.
00:36:36.080Just like, you know, you're up at Everest, you start to get cross-bitten, your body sacrifices the extremities first because they're least important.
00:36:46.840So even if all of these bizarre coincidences happen such that he doesn't have the full protection that you would expect him to have,
00:36:55.340like, you would think if they just had one guy, the one guy would be exactly where the shooter ended up.
00:37:01.400If they had only one secret service agent, that agent would be standing guard over that building where the shooter managed to get himself without a scratch, without a problem.
00:37:15.180So even that, like, the limited security like that is certainly interesting, it's certainly suspicious,
00:37:23.040but that doesn't even, like, plumb the depths of how bizarre it is.
00:37:27.080Even if you had only one person, you would expect that one person to be guarding the very place where the shooter was able to access with no difficulty.
00:37:39.180And, in fact, we actually, and we have the full schematic breakdown, the after-action report from the local police officers,
00:37:48.880from the local SWAT teams that were there, who we were told were in that very, so the way it works,
00:37:54.700and I traveled out there to do research for this book, that there were actually two buildings, okay?
00:38:00.700So the AGR building is a complex of buildings, and this is what he utilized, not to, by the way,
00:38:06.160surreptitiously crawl over these buildings, because we could, I'd laugh, but it's just so ridiculous
00:38:10.580that we're supposed to accept the official narrative on its face.
00:38:14.640He could see him in body cam footage and even cell phone footage of people who were just sitting in the bleachers,
00:38:19.960watching him jump from rooftop to rooftop in broad daylight with an AR-15,
00:38:25.020while the Secret Service and the law enforcement apparently just watching him there.
00:38:30.660But we're told that in the second building, so the second building is actually overlooking,
00:38:35.820so it's overlooking the building where it had this sloped roof that the female director,
00:38:41.740Kimberly Cheadle, who had resigned over, so they were overlooking that building.
