Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec - The Untold Story of the Real J6 Insurrection w⧸ Pete Hegseth

00:00:00.000 Hey folks, I want to remind you that the Turning Point Action People's Conference is coming up

00:00:06.660 this June 14th to 16th in Detroit, Michigan. Get your tickets and then go to unhumansbook.com

00:00:15.000 to come to a special meet and greet for the launch party of the Unhumans book with myself

00:00:20.420 and Joshua Lysak. I'll see you there in Detroit.

00:00:22.960 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.

00:00:36.200 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:42.880 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.

00:00:46.920 Overseas now, far-right parties are celebrating big gains after elections for the European

00:00:51.300 parliament in EU countries. And the vote is a major setback for leaders like French President

00:00:56.020 Emmanuel Macron. Emmanuel Macron's party was trounced by candidates for Marine Le Pen's

00:01:01.920 Nationalist Party. Macron called snap elections, saying he couldn't ignore the message.

00:01:07.760 In France, Italy and Germany, a shift to the right and far-right. In Germany, the hard-right party,

00:01:13.800 AFD, celebrated a second-place finish in the country. Young voters turning right and leaving

00:01:20.660 the Green Party. Defense attorneys have said prosecutors have not provided enough evidence

00:01:25.380 to show that Hunter Biden was actively using drugs in 2018 for that 11-day period when he had

00:01:32.440 that weapon. They also called three witnesses last week, Friday. If Hunter Biden is convicted,

00:01:38.720 he faces 25 years behind bars. He's pleaded, not guilty. Friday, the judge, Mershon,

00:01:44.720 sent a letter to both parties in the trial, alerting him to a Facebook post that had been

00:01:49.440 made at the end of May. Allegedly says, I'll read it, my cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting

00:01:55.400 convicted. Thank you, folks, for all your hard work. Now, the Biden administration's targeting of

00:01:59.140 big tech is not going to help sentiment out in Silicon Valley, where a growing number of high-profile

00:02:03.940 venture capitalists are throwing their support behind former President Trump. Billionaire investors

00:02:08.680 David Sachs and Chamath Palahapitiya are hosting a fundraiser alongside the former president in the heart of

00:02:14.100 San Francisco. When I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips, people making tips.

00:02:26.740 We're not going to do it, and we're going to do that right away, first thing in office, because

00:02:32.400 it's been a point of contention for years and years and years, and you do a great job of service,

00:02:39.820 you take care of people, and I think it's going to be something that really is deserved, popular or

00:02:45.360 unpopular. I do some unpopular things, too, if it's right for the country. I do what's right.

00:02:50.020 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live,

00:02:53.660 Washington, D.C. Today is June 10th, 2024, Anno Domini. All right, folks, let's go around the horn.

00:03:02.740 Europe, massive populist swing that took place in the election over the past three days there.

00:03:09.280 If you want to go listen, Raheem Kassam and I have a huge, huge podcast, Monster Mash podcast that we

00:03:15.300 did, Snap Podcast yesterday. Go check that out over at the National Pulse, where we walk you through

00:03:20.520 in extreme and minute detail what went down across the European parliamentary elections. But I want to

00:03:27.680 be clear, this doesn't affect national parliaments. Only the local national elections will affect that.

00:03:35.520 However, what we're seeing is perhaps the beginning of a tidal wave that could crash onto American

00:03:43.080 shores, a butterfly effect, if you will, in November 2024. Only 140 and change days away from today.

00:03:54.540 Folks, the job is massive. And what we need you to do is stay frosty because we are about to take,

00:04:00.180 and this movement is about to take globally, incoming, like you've never seen before. You

00:04:06.000 think the trials were bad. You think the conviction was bad. You think all of the things are happening.

00:04:10.580 Steve Bannon going behind bars. Peter Navarro currently behind bars. Alex Jones having to shut

00:04:17.460 down operations, but he's going to be hanging on as long as possible. He and I have been in

00:04:21.740 communication. Folks, the tide is turning, but the fight is just starting. The tide is turning,

00:04:28.380 but the fight is just starting. So the question is, do you have what it takes to go those 15 rounds?

00:04:38.220 Do you have what it takes to go all the way to the final bell? 147 days, ladies and gentlemen,

00:04:46.960 between now and election day. And I know the polls are good. Look, look at that CBS poll. That CBS poll

00:04:52.760 that came out is fantastic. CBS, YouGov, everything is trending in our direction. Deport all undocumented 1.00

00:04:59.740 immigrants. 62% favor. Higher prices have been a hardship. 69% support Donald Trump. Are you better 0.98

00:05:11.240 off now or worse than you were four years ago? 42% say they will be better if Trump wins and 48% say they

00:05:20.320 will be worse if Biden wins. Who is your choice for president? Trump now polling 18% among black voters,

00:05:27.180 45% among women. Independence split 50 to 48, right down the line. Folks, you need to fight like this entire 0.81

00:05:37.480 election. Like every single thing we do from now until November 5th this year, 147 days. Fight like

00:05:46.080 there's only one vote that makes the entire difference. Fight like we're 10 points down and you need to just

00:05:53.160 get one more vote. Fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp up Noah's Ark. Be right back.

00:06:01.040 Ladies and gentlemen, one of the best ways that you can support us here at Human Events and the work

00:06:48.480 the new book. Check. There's one thing you're forgetting and it could make the biggest difference

00:06:52.240 in your future and your family's financial future and that's checking out today's show sponsor,

00:06:56.040 Allegiance Gold. Since 2020, Bidenomics has obliterated the American economy. Imagine what

00:07:01.500 four more years will do to interest rates, debt, and labor disputes. You need something stable so that

00:07:05.780 you can take a breath and know that the money you earn and the retirement you work for is safe.

00:07:09.900 You have to proactively protect your assets so that when the supply chains get rocked and Biden decides

00:07:14.900 to print a few more trillion dollar bills, it won't impact your family's bottom line.

00:07:19.540 And the only way to do that is with the one true beacon of stability that so many patriots use to

00:07:24.180 preserve their wealth and that, my friends, is gold. Over the last five years, it's almost doubled in

00:07:28.780 value and with the way things are looking, the sky is the limit. Allegiance Gold has done things the

00:07:33.460 right way from the beginning. So it's no coincidence that they've earned the highest trust rating in the

00:07:38.000 precious metals industry, five stars with trust link and an A plus with a better business bureau.

00:08:07.300 we're getting a little bit of feedback, folks, but I'm going to say that's right. I said it.

00:08:10.660 Third monkey on the ramp up to Noah's Ark and the rain is falling. The rain is falling. So what are

00:08:17.620 you going to do? What are you going to do? Well, we're going to talk to fighters and we're bringing

00:08:22.400 more fighters in every single day. And our next guest and our guest for the whole show today,

00:08:27.760 he's a fighter. You guys know him, a man who needs no introduction, but perhaps even though you know who

00:08:33.540 he is, you may not know his whole story. And we're going to get into that a lot today. Ladies and

00:08:39.480 gentlemen, Pete Hegseth joins us now. Pete, how are you, man? What's up, Jack? How you doing? Doing

00:08:43.780 great. Great to be on. Appreciate what you do. Doing really well. People don't know this, by the

00:08:48.900 way, though. Even though we were shipped tonight, Pete and I both served at Guantanamo Bay, although

00:08:54.720 on different deployments. Yeah. What year were you, Jack? I was 2004, 2005. Yeah. I remember we chatted

00:09:02.220 about this once. We were backstage at some RNC or something. And I was there. So I was there way

00:09:07.500 after. I was 2012, 2013. Yep. It's still, it was still a bunch of real estate on the coastline.

00:09:15.920 Popping and popping. A bunch of dirtbags. Yeah. And it's, and it still is, except that under,

00:09:21.340 under Obama, he let go some of the worst of the worst, by the way. And then funny enough,

00:09:26.020 we ended up having to recapture them in like Pakistan and Afghanistan and, you know, so much.

00:09:31.900 And then, oh, by the way, when they had the Bo Bergdahl, I think it was the five generals that got

00:09:36.600 released in that crooked deal. They wound up, oh, going right back to Afghanistan and walking right 0.92

00:09:42.840 back into the leadership of the Taliban. And oh, look at that. They're now in charge of the country.

00:09:47.540 Just, just an amazing policy that, you know, it's like, what exactly was the point of all this? It's,

00:09:53.020 it's completely insane. And that's why you've got to talk to people that have actually been there and

00:09:58.080 done the job. And that's who Pete Hegseth is. But, but I've got to ask you because we have so

00:10:02.360 many questions about this and you've got a new book that I really want to get into that I've

00:10:06.220 gotten into personally, but I want to, um, I want to present to everyone these European elections.

00:10:10.580 What is your take on the news that we saw out of Europe? And do you think that it potentially

00:10:16.780 could be a butterfly effect into the United States? It sure could be. I mean, Jack,

00:10:21.500 you talk a lot about, and rightfully so how this has a feeling and aura of 2016. Well, what preceded

00:10:27.420 Trump's historic election in 2016 was Brexit, was something everyone told us wasn't possible,

00:10:33.140 that there wasn't enough of a groundswell, but the British people said, we want our sovereignty

00:10:37.540 back. And I'll never forget that morning when I woke up, I had my, uh, my, my union jack socks

00:10:43.400 ready to go just in case it went the right way. And they did, and it did. And it was a shot in the

00:10:47.460 arm, like I, like that I'd never anticipated almost made us feel like, Hey, this is possible.

00:10:51.780 Well, now you see, um, you know, Marine Le Pen and what's happening in France and Macron having to,

00:10:56.540 having to now call snap elections because of the overwhelming response of national French

00:11:01.300 nationalists who say, Hey, we, we want our borders back. We, we don't want unchecked, unfettered

00:11:06.100 illegal immigration in our country, which is changing our entire society. You see the same thing 1.00

00:11:10.220 in the UK. I'm about to launch a special on Fox nation in the fall called the Islamization 0.81

00:11:15.280 of Europe. And we spent a lot of time in London, uh, in these, you know, former churches that are

00:11:20.180 now mosques that are changing towns and changing neighborhoods. Native Brits see this. It affects 0.99

00:11:25.640 their lives. It affects their economy. It affects their safety and certainly their sovereignty. So

00:11:31.080 I, it's a beautiful thing to see. Of course, we know exactly what the left is going to say. Oh,

00:11:35.140 it's far right. You know, Christian nationalists, let them say it. These are average folks in

00:11:41.040 France and the UK and across Europe. We're just sick and tired of leftists wrecking their countries

00:11:46.120 and they're sticking up for it. So hopefully it is a preview. Uh, I mean, we've got the same thing.

00:11:50.480 What is it? 10, 12, 15 million. We're not even sure into our borders from all around the world.

00:11:54.960 We're importing the third world, uh, everyday Americans across a lot of different demographics 0.99

00:12:00.200 are saying enough is enough. Hopefully it's a preview of what's happening here.

00:12:03.460 Well, and that's exactly what we just saw in the CBS. You go post 62% say deport all undocumented

00:12:09.940 immigrants. Now, of course that's the CBS language, undocumented immigrants. I'm like,

00:12:13.720 well, an immigrant means you went through a process. So number one, you're not an immigrant, 1.00

00:12:17.020 but you know, something you just said about London, um, reminded me that Richard Dawkins.

00:12:21.320 So Richard Dawkins, who's like the leader of the new atheist movement, a guy who's by no means

00:12:27.260 on the right, um, you know, an arch figurehead of the left, if you will, even he came out and

00:12:34.520 responded that when he was looking around the United Kingdom and he saw the new Islamic holidays

00:12:40.640 and the new mosques and the fact that they were taking precedence over Christian feasts

00:12:45.120 and cathedrals, he, for people who don't remember, this was something that like Bill O'Reilly

00:12:50.420 and him used to go at it years ago. And he was like the big leader of sort of the anti-Christianization

00:12:56.780 movement. That was the new atheist. Even he came out this year and said, well, I do consider

00:13:01.800 myself culturally Christian. And I'm like Dawkins, what did you think you were doing for all those

00:13:06.820 years, man? Cause even he sees this and says, wait a minute. No, I didn't mean for all this

00:13:11.600 to happen. And he's kind of like maybe questioning some of the things that, uh, that may have led to

00:13:17.080 this point. You mean Western Christian civilization created, uh, the kind of aura of normalcy and,

00:13:23.620 and, and wonderful quality of life that allowed even atheists to sort of spout off their nonsense.

00:13:28.920 And then they look around and realize, Oh, real religious authoritarians are here and they want 0.98

00:13:33.840 everyone to conform or pay a tax or die. Maybe I'm not in for that. So, I mean, it's, it's the

00:13:39.620 same mentality of people who, um, wave the flag and say queers for, for Hamas. Like they're, 0.91

00:13:45.400 they've lost their mind. They don't understand what that means until some of them with common

00:13:49.440 sense, wake up and say, wait, they're coming for me next. So life actually wasn't so bad in a real

00:13:54.520 pluralistic society. Well, and then there was this idea, right? I guess there was idea that they had

00:13:59.960 that if you can just completely remove God from the public square, completely remove the, the power

00:14:05.940 of public Christian morals and the United States, I keep saying this to people, it shouldn't be 1.00

00:14:11.620 controversial to say that the majority of Americans are Christian and the majority of Americans have

00:14:16.480 always been Christian. It's always been the majority in America since our founding predates our

00:14:21.820 founding. In many ways, it is intrinsically related to our founding because of fleeing religious 1.00

00:14:26.220 repression and things like that, that led to the original, um, the original founding of 13 colonies.

00:14:30.500 And so to come out and say that, wait a minute, if we start taking the crosses down from the empire

00:14:36.960 state building and the skyline of New York city on Easter weekend or on a good Friday, and then

00:14:42.780 suddenly they start getting replaced by things like the pride flag, or like, as you say, in London,

00:14:47.700 more so the Islamization, there's always going to be something that fills that 0.97

00:14:51.500 vacuum. And it feels like a lot of these guys didn't see that coming. It's, they just thought

00:14:55.940 it, like you said, like it would all just be horseshoes. Well, I was about to say horseshoes

00:14:59.520 and rainbows, but we do have the rainbows. I mean, you're right. And we're living off of the residual

00:15:05.160 of, of the goodness and the fortitude of those times when there was clarity about what we believed

00:15:11.580 in. Christians were willing to stand up and say, this is who we are. And this is what we believe,

00:15:16.100 in a country like the United, and Europe lost that a long time ago. I mean, they, their churches are

00:15:22.580 empty, their welfare states have been, they've, they've gutted their, they've bloated their welfare

00:15:26.820 states by gutting their militaries and they left their borders wide open. And now they've imported 1.00

00:15:31.520 North Africa and the Middle East, people who have no, no desire to assimilate, let alone be a part of 0.99

00:15:38.560 the historic Christian civilization that existed there. And they wonder why their culture is absolutely

00:15:44.600 imploding. And it started here in a far more subtle way, Jack. I know we're talking about my book,

00:15:49.040 War on Warriors, but the book before that was called Battle for the American Mind. And it was

00:15:52.780 about the K through 12 takeover by the left. And what's the first thing they do? They did. They took

00:15:58.000 the Bible and, and, and, and the cross out of schools intentionally. They took faith out of public 0.96

00:16:04.560 schools in America because then it was much more, much easier to, the minds of kids is far more

00:16:10.200 malleable when they think society is perfectible. So it's all, it always, you say this a lot and

00:16:16.660 you're right. I mean, it is a spiritual battle and we've, we've kneecapped ourselves, especially Europe 0.69

00:16:21.680 in so many ways that we're not capable to fight against a new religion, a new woke religion or

00:16:26.640 Islamist religion. That's very aggressive and evangelical. Well, and it's amazing to see, 1.00

00:16:32.480 and we've got a quick break coming up here and I want to get into, because I mean, this book is

00:16:35.800 incredible because you're revealing things about January 6th that I think people have, have guessed,

00:16:40.760 but we'll, we'll get into that in a second. You know, now you're coming forward with the full story,

00:16:44.020 but something that a lot of people don't realize is that even after all of this, even after the

00:16:49.760 secularization of Europe, which, you know, used to be referred to as Christendom, even after 60 years

00:16:57.000 of indoctrination and, you know, public school teaching, government teaching about egalitarianism and

00:17:03.440 everyone has to be equal and diversity is strengthened up. Even after that, even after

00:17:07.240 that, you can't break the spirit of history. You can't break the spirit of tradition. You can't

00:17:12.740 break the fact that people want to live their lives and have their cultures the way they always had.

00:17:19.080 And look, you know, I go back to, I'm Polish. I talked to my Polish family members over there all

00:17:23.720 the time. They lived through the Nazi, uh, the Nazi invasion. They lived through the Soviet invasion.

00:17:28.560 They lived through 60 years of communism and they always maintained their language, their faith and

00:17:34.180 their culture. And they said, that's the only way that Poland ever survived. All of that was 1.00

00:17:38.440 maintaining it all the way through. And so even if Nazism and Joseph Stalin himself couldn't wipe out 0.71

00:17:44.900 religion in Poland, this is the key. If you maintain your spiritual roots, you cannot be defeated by

00:17:52.980 anything. Stay tuned and be right back with Pete Hegseth. We're talking about the butterfly effect.

00:17:58.060 We're talking about the elections coming out of Europe and now revelations from January 6th that

00:18:03.520 will rock the 2024 election in his new book.

00:18:09.440 I heard I rolled with bloods and them boys had a saying. You can't be listening to all that slappy 1.00

00:18:15.860 whack, trim out his alitzabam ship, nippy bam bam, like human events with Jack Posobiec.

00:18:22.980 All right, Jack, so we're back live. Human events daily folks. The world is in flames.

00:18:27.160 Bidenomics is a complete and total disaster, but it cannot, it will not ruin my day. Do you know why?

00:18:31.440 It's because I start my day with a hot America first cup of blackout coffee. This coffee is 100%

00:18:35.320 Americana. Blackout coffee is 100% committed to conservative values from sourcing to beans to the

00:18:40.220 roasting process, customer support and shipping. They embody true American values and accept no

00:18:44.520 compromise on taste or quality. Look, this stuff gets me through my days. It's going to get me through

00:18:49.780 the people's convention, all the book stuff that we're doing this weekend. President Trump

00:18:53.900 coming to meet with us in Detroit. We know we need to be high energy. That's why you got to go to

00:18:58.240 blackoutcom slash POSO and use promo code POSO20 for 20% off your first order. Summers here, give the gift

00:19:04.380 of those close to your heart the gift of being awake, not woke. And Father's Day is, of course,

00:19:08.380 this Sunday. That's blackoutcoffee.com slash POSO. Pete Hegseth, your new book is the war on

00:19:15.900 warriors behind the betrayal of the men who keep us free. Talk to me a little bit in this book. It's

00:19:23.600 racing up the charts. I think I saw you were number two on Amazon, number two, number one on Amazon over

00:19:29.260 the weekend. You're still in, I think the top 10. What is the, what led to the genesis of you writing

00:19:36.080 this book? Because you've always been extremely pro military, but there's a difference between

00:19:41.560 being pro soldier and pro service member and being pro Pentagon brass. And I kind of feel like that's

00:19:49.280 where this book is coming from. Walk me through it. You're exactly right, Jack. First of all,

00:19:53.280 congratulations on your book, by the way, on humans. I ordered it. It's common. I look forward

00:19:57.520 to it. Congrats. And I hope we can help promote it as well. It's such an important message. And a lot

00:20:01.820 of those themes are creep, absolutely are creeping into the, our own military, which is, which is

00:20:08.120 crazy. And we can, we can get into that. But yes, this book is not a book about how the military went

00:20:13.280 woke to your point. It's a book about how the military allowed itself to go woke. And so a lot

00:20:18.360 of this story is about the brass and the leadership class that catered to political ideologues who are

00:20:24.020 pushing social justice, politically correct gender, D E I C R T stuff into the ranks and leadership 1.00

00:20:31.500 never stepped up to say, you know, our only oath is to defend the constitution against enemies,

00:20:36.360 foreign and domestic. And this doesn't make us more merit-based, more lethal, more capable, more ready.

00:20:41.540 And as a result, we're going to push back in a very real basis. And, and the story is, it's not that

00:20:47.840 long of a story, meaning that my last book was over a hundred years. This one it's, yes, there's things

00:20:53.160 that happened in the, in the nineties, Clinton and, and in two thousands, but it really is an Obama

00:20:58.240 Biden story of political ideologues who wanted to bring the most powerful meritocracy in the world

00:21:04.200 to heal. And they thought, and they put political, their own political people in senior positions in

00:21:10.060 and around the Pentagon, and then started to shape the force in a way that like-minded generals, or at

00:21:16.360 least people willing to play the game and jump through the hoops that they know are antithetical

00:21:20.660 to supporting the warfighter. And that's how you get promoted up through the ranks to the point where

00:21:25.980 in a Biden administration, which is really Obama third term, they're on hyperspeed and accelerating

00:21:32.360 all this social justice, gender, climate, patriot extremism nonsense, alongside the vaccine mandate

00:21:40.860 stuff. It's filtering out patriots and warfighters and helping, you know, the people that are willing

00:21:47.980 to conform to that ideology up and through the ranks, which changes the ethos and the capability

00:21:54.160 of the entire military. And just guys like you and I lived through this. Like we, we signed up because

00:21:59.800 we love the country and we want to do, we want to do our part. Like, you know, this is, this is,

00:22:06.220 I wrote this, I write this book with frustration because I love this institution, but it's not like

00:22:10.840 the military. It's not like the education or tax rates. You can't move away from this problem.

00:22:15.320 There's only one Marine Corps, one Navy, one army. And if we give it away or it's captured by political

00:22:20.840 ideologues, we're going to find ourselves in a, in a very bad position very soon. And we already are.

00:22:25.820 One, one thing that I've always said that Obama did during his time in and something that,

00:22:30.700 so I joined right kind of as he was getting in, getting into office. And one of the initial

00:22:37.220 changes that I started to notice in the officer corps, and then really the flag corps going into

00:22:41.820 the flag corps. And so for anyone who puts on that star, a general, admiral, depending on your service

00:22:46.040 branch, you always go through the war colleges. And it, what I started noticing was that in the

00:22:50.860 war college system under Obama, they use it the same way they use the right, the civilian colleges,

00:22:55.260 by the way, they went to the war colleges and then returned those into these political

00:23:00.320 indoctrination centers. So that's where they send, if you're on your way up to leaders, military

00:23:05.100 leadership, you go to the war college and then, you know, you might have a master's, you go there for

00:23:08.860 a PhD, et cetera, something like this. But then that's kind of, but what they, and what it's supposed

00:23:13.060 to be for, by the way, is to teach you how to make war, how to defend the country, how to hurt 0.66

00:23:17.460 people and break things in other countries. You know, if we go to war with China, here's what you 0.61

00:23:21.280 do. Here's what you're going to have to fight them at sea. So here's how it is. We go to war with

00:23:24.000 Russia, you know, God forbid we go to war with Russia, but if we were, this is how that would play

00:23:27.620 out, et cetera, et cetera. That's the point. Um, but what Obama started doing is they would find the,

00:23:35.120 find the officers who already agreed, or as you say, were willing to kind of regurgitate the party line

00:23:41.800 on whatever the political correct, you know, cause of the day, the current issue of the day was,

00:23:46.440 and they slowly started shaping the officer corps to fit those interests, not the interest of what

00:23:52.440 we just outlined, the actual, I don't know, safety and security of our nation. God forbid,

00:23:57.440 I know crazy thought there, real conspiracy theory that we should protect our borders and our people,

00:24:02.520 and that's what the point of the military should be, um, and our interests, obviously. And so

00:24:06.640 then you also noticed that I would see these, these officers, you know, 05, 06, they'd go to

00:24:12.540 the war colleges and these were some of the most, you know, locked down, buttoned up, um, you know,

00:24:18.280 in the, in the Navy, we say Joe Navy type guys, and they would constantly, they wouldn't make rank,

00:24:22.900 they wouldn't get the star, they wouldn't make flag. And you're like, what's going on? And then you

00:24:26.820 see the dirtbags that do, and it was either the biggest, I'm just going to say it, the biggest

00:24:30.500 brown nosers or the most woke, you know, we didn't have the word woke back then quite yet,

00:24:36.840 but the wokest DEI is types would always be the ones that made rank fastest.

00:24:43.400 Yes. I saw the same thing both at home, but also, uh, forward deployed the generals who are willing to

00:24:50.620 peddle the, um, societal makeover, build every school, um, heroic restraint. We're going to win

00:24:58.220 every heart. Like a lot of us, I learned a lot of things in real time. And there were a lot of

00:25:02.020 things when I was an infantry platoon leader where, you know, we were torn between kinetic

00:25:05.920 action and counterinsurgency operations and the different debates going on, but it became very

00:25:10.320 clear those who actually wanted to kill the enemy and lead their men to be as violent in their action

00:25:16.580 as possible. So as to, you know, secure their battle space and achieve their objective. Uh, and

00:25:22.580 there might be a mistake here, a mistake there, cause it's war and war is impossible to conduct in a

00:25:27.200 clean nature. They were always the guys who were under the gun from the lawyers in the Pentagon

00:25:32.260 and elsewhere who were pulling them in, reining them in, putting, putting even more restrictions

00:25:36.960 on them. And those who would not take risks, those who prolonged the war, those who peddled

00:25:42.020 PowerPoints that talked about, uh, gender breakdowns and racial breakdowns. And, uh, and they were the

00:25:48.520 ones just sort of easily spiraling to the top. And that, that matters now under Trump, a lot of those

00:25:54.720 generals kind of put their head down. Now we saw at the end of Trump, them willing what game they were

00:26:00.440 playing. Uh, but they just kind of went underground and, and, and played the game. And I don't, I don't

00:26:05.860 think the Trump administration knew the extent to which it had been burrowed into the DOD. They do now

00:26:11.140 and they'll do something about it now. And then once that, that cap was off, especially after, um,

00:26:16.720 George Floyd and January 6th, then they just ramped up, um, the targeting, not just of who would be

00:26:22.680 promoted, but those mid and junior levels, will you conform to our ideology? Otherwise you're not

00:26:29.200 going to find yourself getting promoted. Look, and this is how you cause the destabilization

00:26:34.020 of a system. And I'm just going to say, this is classic Marxism. This is Marxism the same way you

00:26:39.540 would use a mark. It's dialectic warfare. So the dialectic warfare of get P of shape people so that,

00:26:46.600 um, the, the incentive structure is set up for you to be following a political institution and political

00:26:51.960 set of ideals and a political set of these correct values, ideologies, et cetera, to get you to the

00:26:58.460 top. Whereas, you know, I'm sure when you're new, when you were in uniform, when I was in uniform,

00:27:02.860 I didn't talk politics. I wasn't interested in talking politics. It isn't about politics. It's

00:27:07.340 about what are we, what are we doing to accomplish the mission and achieve the commander's intent?

00:27:12.320 That's it because that's what we signed up for. So we don't care a liberal Democrat, whatever it is,

00:27:17.940 but you start to see these things along the way that they politicize the military the same way

00:27:22.760 they politicize any institution. And then once they've conducted institutional capture,

00:27:27.200 once they've achieved institutional capture, it's like running a military operation on the military

00:27:31.840 itself. That's when you go. So Biden full institutional capture. Now you go top down and

00:27:38.020 now we can go to the junior ranks. You can go to the NCOs. You can go to the petty officers in Navy,

00:27:44.560 and you can just start wiping out anybody because there's no one left to hold anyone accountable for

00:27:50.220 these things. And that's why you saw most of the more aggressive actions of the Obama

00:27:55.460 administration happen in the second half of the second term. He didn't do it right away because

00:27:59.660 he knew institutionally he could not. So take something for like women in combat roles, for 1.00

00:28:04.360 example, which rolled out in 2014 into 2015. That was a, would have been an extremely controversial

00:28:11.300 topic eight years before that in the middle of a shooting war, when there was a recognition that

00:28:15.940 men and women are different and that, you know, bone density and lung capacity and muscle mass

00:28:21.180 are different. And Oh, adding the variable of women into all male units on the front lines might add 0.95

00:28:26.080 some complicating factors. But by 2015, 2016, you had a secretary of the Navy in Ray Mabus and others,

00:28:33.060 other services, especially the air force and the army. They just laid down. They didn't even try to fight.

00:28:39.040 They said, okay, at least the Marine Corps conducted a study and they studied 400 male Marines versus 300

00:28:45.680 male Marines and a hundred female Marines. And no surprise after months of study, the all male unit 1.00

00:28:50.960 massively outperformed the mixed gender unit. But what did the secretary of the Navy do at that point?

00:28:56.420 Cause he knew who his handlers were through the study out and said, I don't care. Integrate every,

00:29:00.380 every single billet. And, and, and that's the type of mindset that, that takes hold everywhere.

00:29:06.500 It's not about standards and lethality and accountability and meritocracy. It's about

00:29:12.120 what do my political handlers demand based on some societal objective, uh, that does not align with

00:29:18.580 the most effective fighting force. And that's where they're, they abdicate their responsibility.

00:29:22.920 They abdicate their oath, but they've been well-placed to be the types of people that already want to 0.92

00:29:29.000 abdicate or are willing to, because they're cowards with stars on their shoulders. Uh, and, and they, 0.57

00:29:33.760 and they go along to get along. They want to make the next rank. And then they want the, the,

00:29:38.460 their spot on the defense and the board of the defense contractor after that. And they want to

00:29:42.240 be liked by the chattering class. Uh, so there's a careerism problem involved in all of it too, 0.69

00:29:46.460 but it was set up by systematically creating, as you said, different types of incentives. And now here,

00:29:53.160 here we are in Biden and it's, it's a straight off CRT DEI gender-based, uh, right out of a Marxist

00:29:59.540 playbook. If you wanted to remake an institution. Look, it's almost a make work program for leftists

00:30:05.120 and their social engineered class at this point. It's not the military that it's supposed to be

00:30:10.700 that number one is supposed to fight our wars. And number two, which hopefully we don't have to do,

00:30:14.680 but also number two, to keep us safe, should war come. Pete Hegseth is our guest. This book is

00:30:20.600 fascinating. The war on warriors. Stay tuned because he's going to talk a little bit next about January 6th.

00:30:25.540 Jack, where's Jack? Where's Jack? Where is he? Jack, I want to see you.

00:30:38.800 Great job, Jack. Thank you. What a job you do. You know, we have an incredible thing. We're always

00:30:44.120 talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys and these are the guys should be getting

00:30:49.080 all right, Jack. We're on live with Pete Hegseth. His book is the war on warriors. We're walking

00:30:57.780 through this and they say news is the first draft of history. So if we don't put out current events

00:31:05.260 and modern history on our own, we know that the libs and the left are going to write their version of it.

00:31:12.600 So Pete, not everybody, you know, everybody knows you from your, your day job, shall we say. But

00:31:18.760 until very recently, you were also a member of the national guard. Talk to me about what your life

00:31:24.960 was like on that side through the events of 2020 and then leading up to January 6th.

00:31:30.220 So, yeah, I was, I did a tour like you in Guantanamo Bay, did one in Iraq and did one in

00:31:34.360 Afghanistan, took a break in service, came back in and just wanted to serve, kind of had the itch

00:31:39.400 still. I, I include this in the book and I'll just give it a glancing blow. I tried to serve

00:31:44.120 in the New York guard. Constantly threatening my wife with that, by the way.

00:31:48.140 Are you really? Uh, not, not in the current military, but we'll see.

00:31:53.160 We'll see in the future. Who knows? Uh, and, and I tried to get into the New York guard because I

00:31:58.080 lived in New Jersey. It was a unit. Anyway, it was a layup. I was definitely going to be in that unit

00:32:02.060 and it was going to be a, you know, right in the city. And I was denied because who was the governor

00:32:06.180 of New York? It was governor Cuomo. His tag, um, denied me having a slot in a unit that needed a

00:32:12.260 major, uh, in the slot. So it started there. So, so I needed, so that was one level of political

00:32:17.400 interference. Then I went down to the DC guard. Cause I've heard about a unit that was there that

00:32:21.400 could use me. I had a little bit of flexibility with my schedule because of my day job and it,

00:32:26.420 the DC national guard is inherently a very political unit. It's where it is, but you also have more

00:32:32.920 control from the secretary of the army directly to the DC guard because it's not a state. It's a,

00:32:38.540 it's, it's, it's federalized. So whatever, it's all fine. But then the George Floyd stuff happens

00:32:43.980 and I find myself in DC in early June, 2020, holding a riot shield. They didn't, we didn't have

00:32:49.200 enough guys. So here I am a major, um, staff guy, but I'm out there with a bunch of other majors and

00:32:54.180 captains and lieutenants holding a riot shield outside the white house. And we were out there for,

00:32:57.920 you know, three, four days, night after night, Antifa, BLM, all that, that happens.

00:33:03.140 This is something, this is something that I don't know if people realize that when we look at those

00:33:07.340 videos and the burning of St. John's church out there that Antifa was conducting, this is a huge

00:33:11.600 thing. The Biden campaign hits Trump over all the time. They say he gassed peaceful protesters.

00:33:16.240 Like, no, they were burning down a church and it was tear gas, which is a pretty common riot

00:33:20.560 dispersal, uh, riot dispersal implement. So you were actually one of the guys out there.

00:33:25.400 I was, I was there the next night. I wasn't there that night. I was there the next four nights where

00:33:31.360 it was still raucous, you might say, but, but that, but the reason we were, we were kind of

00:33:36.800 called in is because of what had happened that night before. And that was, you know, I think

00:33:41.380 there were 60 or 70 secret service agents that were injured or, or park police that were there.

00:33:46.720 I mean, it was really bad. They were jumping the fence of the white house, totally defaced

00:33:50.440 Lafayette square, burn down, burn the church. Trump goes out with the Bible. Millie's all ashamed 0.97

00:33:55.300 that that happened. Anyway, night after night, we're out there after that.

00:33:59.240 Feeling that white rage.

00:34:01.040 Yeah, exactly. I mean, by the way, I've never heard more rate, vile racist stuff than what the

00:34:08.880 BLM folks said to our soldiers, our black soldiers, especially, I mean, it was every time we've documented 1.00

00:34:13.900 this a million times, a hundred percent. That's how it works. So then fast forward,

00:34:18.720 I'm still in the unit. January 6th happens. I was actually there that morning reporting for

00:34:23.100 Fox and friends, but I left right after the show and blah, blah, blah. That happens. We all, we're

00:34:27.280 going to, we can talk about Millie's role in some of that. Cause Millie is a central character

00:34:30.900 in this book because of kind of how, how his role played out and, and, and how he played into the

00:34:37.260 hands of so much intentionally. And then after January 6th, of course, the inauguration of Joe Biden

00:34:43.320 was coming, which means, and you remember Nancy Pelosi's parking lot and you know, all of,

00:34:49.180 all of the national guard in DC and the five state area was deployed. I think there were 25,000

00:34:53.620 national guard troops. I mean, it was an occupation. It was an occupation. It was an, absolutely. It was

00:34:59.360 the fences up. I could not get to my, I could not park in front of my office building because I was

00:35:04.860 at one-on-one constitution back then. And I, I could not get to my, just park in front of my building

00:35:11.440 because number one, the fencing was there. And if I wanted to get downtown, I had to go through

00:35:16.060 three military checkpoints just to go to work. So you describe it accurately completely. And so I

00:35:23.160 had, you know, I work on weekends so I can get there during the week and my job. So I had orders

00:35:28.280 like everybody else, like everyone to go defend the inauguration of Joe Biden. Uh, and they were cut

00:35:34.460 and I was ready to go. And then about a day before, a day before I left, I got a call from

00:35:39.760 a senior leader in my unit. And he saw, he said, uh, major, you can stand down. We don't need you.

00:35:44.160 We're good. We're good. I said, what do you mean? Like everybody's going, I have orders. He goes,

00:35:48.900 no, no, no, you're good. And he refused to tell me. He couldn't tell me at the time. He just said,

00:35:52.380 you know, you're good. You know, you're, you're, you got a busy schedule. You got, you know,

00:35:56.680 you're, we're good. Everybody's got busy schedules. Of course that, and I had a sense in that

00:36:01.980 moment. So I actually submitted my resignation letter on January 20th, 2021. Um, it's sort of

00:36:08.760 my own statement, but I didn't know for sure. And so as of the writing of this book, Jack,

00:36:13.500 I called back to one of the senior leaders in the unit who was willing to talk to me. And he said,

00:36:18.120 Hey, I know for certain, cause I was on the, in the meetings and on the phone calls and the emails

00:36:22.260 and even has some of them, uh, that you were identified as a domestic extremist or a white

00:36:27.820 nationalist because of a tattoo you have on your chest. And I said, sir, that's, it's a Jerusalem

00:36:34.360 cross. It's a very straightforward Christian religious symbol. He said, I, some of us tried

00:36:39.580 to say that, but they didn't want to hear it. They deemed you an extremist and it was approved,

00:36:44.120 um, higher up the chain of command. And so you were disinvited and your orders were revoked

00:36:48.340 to come to the inauguration. Now, was it because of a Christian tattoo? Was it because I was a Trump

00:36:53.260 supporter? Was it because I work at Fox? I don't know. None of those are acceptable answers,

00:36:58.200 but it was, as you've pointed out, I was not alone. And it was because of political ideology

00:37:04.500 and they were in the process of identifying people they did not want in the ranks, at least for that.

00:37:10.020 So I wasn't kicked out of the whole military, but I was, my orders were revoked for a important

00:37:14.220 mission that was mandatory, which told me you're not welcome here. Well, and I remember, so people will 0.99

00:37:22.160 remember a couple of things that at the time in real time, I was up reporting on this very same

00:37:27.980 situation that I was getting word from my friends who were in the guard and I've got friends in the

00:37:33.600 Pennsylvania guard run from and others who were saying, Hey, they're, they're starting to vet our

00:37:38.180 Facebook pages. What do you mean they're vetting your Facebook pages? What is that? What, what are you

00:37:42.180 even talking about? Like, like for criminal stuff? Like, are you guys involved in gangs? Like, what

00:37:46.860 are you doing? It is Philly after all. Um, so, um, they go, no, which by the way, you know,

00:37:52.820 we could talk about gangs and ranks because as if that doesn't happen, gang tats and things like

00:37:56.340 that, which as if that doesn't happen, sorry folks, it is what it is. Welcome to the new,

00:38:00.300 the new American military. Um, that they were saying the Facebook pages of the national guardsmen

00:38:05.320 were being vetted for who, what pages you were liking, what content you were posting. They were

00:38:11.080 looking and I don't mean like, as you say, extreme content, I mean like turning point USA and the NRA

00:38:18.080 and CPAC and the Gadsden flag. Um, which remember they used to always say the Gadsden flag was an

00:38:24.540 extremist flag. Now we're on to appeal to heaven and the pine tree is, is an extremist flag. So this all

00:38:30.040 started back then. And to your point, there was this sort of chronic changing of the guard in the

00:38:36.440 military during the Obama years, then it, it just catalyzes around this January 6th cauldron.

00:38:42.700 They come in boom with the, you know, with going for extremist symbols. And by the way,

00:38:49.360 you know, if anyone, you want to know what the Jerusalem cross is, go to Jerusalem. It's the

00:38:54.420 cross that you see on every single church and like every single shop and the, the, the friars are all

00:39:01.920 wearing it. Um, it's, it's literally the Jerusalem cross. It would, it, you know, it goes back to the,

00:39:07.760 the crusaders, the kingdom of Jerusalem. I mean, it is the, it is the, the main cross that's

00:39:12.500 associated with the Holy land. If you've ever been there and, and for folks, I don't know if we have

00:39:17.240 the B roll of it, but it's, it's like one of the most ancient crosses that we have in the Christian 0.92

00:39:23.440 faith. It's, it's very common. People have seen it all over the place. Also a popular tattoo,

00:39:27.840 I might add. Yes, indeed. And they knew exactly what it was. I mean, this, it was a rationale.

00:39:33.580 It was an excuse. And just like they know exactly what the Gadsden flag or the appeal to heaven.

00:39:37.740 Um, these are all excuses. I mean, and rationalizations and reasons, um, to, to crack

00:39:43.160 down on under the guise of an artificial extremist threat of political opponents. And that's where the

00:39:51.180 phrase then after that patriot extremism came from, come from. Then you get Austin with Bishop

00:39:57.440 Garrison and you get the extremism working group and you get leaked memos about from DARPA with

00:40:02.540 these new categories that, that give commanders and DEI advisors and everyone else in these units

00:40:08.940 a rationale to be checking out social media or looking at bumper stickers that are on people's

00:40:14.500 cars. Uh, and, and, and if they're not an utter, they're shaming them to take them down or change

00:40:20.860 their, their view, it is a patriot purge. I talked about it in the time at the time. That's precisely

00:40:25.880 what it is. And if it, and it's straight up intimidation about who you are, you should

00:40:31.420 be ashamed of who you are and what you represent.

00:40:32.980 If you disagree, you, there's the door. This was a patriot purge of what should be the most

00:40:40.220 patriotic institution in America. Pete Hegseth revealing the truth about the real insurrection

00:40:45.200 on January 6th, the war on warriors. Stay tuned.

00:40:51.080 I'm buzzing in my ear about the boring people at your office. I'm trying to listen to the new

00:40:55.860 human events with Jack Posobiec. All right, Jack Posobiec. We're on live with Pete Hegseth. He's

00:41:02.100 walking through the war on warriors book. This incredible piece that people need to know because

00:41:07.500 it's, it is a history book, but it's current events. And so I hope it's a book that people

00:41:11.960 will understand that when they read the history of January 6th and they read the history of

00:41:17.500 for sure, a very tumultuous era that we're in, that they look to personal eyewitness firsthand

00:41:23.960 accounts from inside the military of the things that were being done. And I, and, and just by the

00:41:30.380 way, on personal level, I appreciate the fact that you are using your platform to do this because you

00:41:34.580 wouldn't have to, and it would probably be a lot easier for you to not go public with these things

00:41:39.860 and, you know, just let it go. And, uh, and, and thank you, seriously, thank you for writing this.

00:41:45.200 Appreciate it. Well, thank you, Jack. I mean, I, and the response, I'll just real quick,

00:41:49.280 before we get to the response has been insane because there haven't, you know, this, I mean,

00:41:54.660 you're, you and I, and a few others are, there's a handful and we're not patting ourselves on the

00:41:58.100 back. It's just kind of a nature of media. There aren't many vets in the media. And so it is our

00:42:02.980 responsibility when there are tough moments to speak as clearly and forcibly as we can,

00:42:08.340 because there are so many guys and gals out there who never even get it remotely a chance to speak

00:42:12.660 out. And they're inside an institution where you can't speak out. So it's, it's always something

00:42:16.980 I've taken very seriously. I get, I get messages every day, just, you know, from guys who are

00:42:22.280 still in, and this is on the IC side, but, you know, keep going, Jack, just keep going. The stuff

00:42:26.580 you, you know, the stuff you're saying, it's, it's 10 times worse than you really think. And I'm like,

00:42:31.160 oh gosh, you know, don't do anything. Don't reveal anything, get yourself in too much trouble.

00:42:34.540 But that being said, I do have a ProtonMail account guys, you know, just saying. Um, and, uh,

00:42:40.740 let me ask you though, about this new piece of reporting Julie Kelly had up over at Declassified. And I think it

00:42:45.880 was, it wasn't actually written by her, but it was, it was all about General Milley. And this is

00:42:51.260 a piece of it that I don't, that I think has come out through some of Milley's interviews later then,

00:42:57.180 and his testimony that's come out, his depositions, other interviews, and what they've pieced together

00:43:01.880 and understood. Why was the Patriot purge going on? This is what's, what's so interesting to me,

00:43:07.240 is that apparently General Milley, and this is the picture that's come out, actually believed

00:43:14.240 that, and people have said, okay, why did Trump not call in the National Guard? And then Cash

00:43:18.960 Patel comes out and said, wait a minute, he did call in the National Guard. And Chris Miller,

00:43:21.860 who was acting DOD at the time, backed him up and said, that's absolutely right. He did call for 10,000

00:43:25.660 National Guardsmen, not after January 6th, but on J6. The order was already there. But Milley is the one

00:43:32.560 who gums it up. And now I think we know the reason why. And the reason why he was looking at,

00:43:38.340 going after people like you, is because he actually, actually was brainwashed into thinking

00:43:46.040 that Trump was going to declare martial law and try to, in Milley's own words, create some kind of a

00:43:53.300 Reichstag moment. What is your response to this, that this is the reason that the Patriot purge was

00:44:00.280 going, the highest level of our military, the leader of the military could have been so completely

00:44:06.060 snowballed by the Democrats into believing, making him essentially turn against his own force

00:44:12.440 and the sitting commander in chief. I mean, it was great, great reporting by Julie Kelly.

00:44:17.060 Folks should check it out alongside the rest of the stuff that she does. 0.99

00:44:20.980 Yeah. He had convinced himself he was a savior of the Republic, that his job, he was, was to stop Trump

00:44:26.940 inside the institution. He declared, he says in a lot of these different, and we were able to read a lot

00:44:32.340 of these are, this is, these are books that were written in different articles that were written. He

00:44:35.880 said it was, it was, it was because he believed he was one of the only ones that could prevent the worst

00:44:42.440 possible outcomes, which would be a foreign war being started by Trump as a rationale to crack down

00:44:48.300 or an internal incident that he would use to put martial law in place and maintain control permanently.

00:44:55.220 So he was in touch with the, not just the foreign policy establishment, which is a famous, you know,

00:45:01.580 swamp uniparty in, in DC, but straight up Democrats. I mean, it's Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and Susan Rice

00:45:08.640 and Liz Cheney. And these are the people he's talking to as, as we're approaching January 6th to try to get a

00:45:15.960 sense of how he should use his power to plant flags, as he says, that will prevent Trump from getting what he

00:45:22.000 wants. And one of those, uh, according to this reporting is that he changed the reporting structure

00:45:28.700 of what the secretary of the army, whether or not the DC guard could be mobilized by its commanding

00:45:33.400 general, or whether it takes the secretary of the army and then never facilitated a conversation about

00:45:39.000 how that would happen. So when it came to January 6th, even though there were troops, national guard

00:45:43.840 troops authorized to be there or respond, when the call came, when the call came, which never actually

00:45:50.560 came, it was delayed by hours intentionally. And it's because, or at least that's the sense they,

00:45:56.900 they, the committee blames it on, you know, reporting difficulties and confusion. But the,

00:46:01.880 the sense you get when you look at all the evidence is that Milley didn't want the guard to be there

00:46:06.440 because he thought Trump would use the guard to, to federalize this and put, put martial law.

00:46:12.220 And as you say, lock up Democrats in Congress, like he had a fanciful view of what was going to happen.

00:46:18.160 And as you say, I wonder who planted that idea in his head. And then you read the circle of

00:46:23.760 confidence. And this is, um, Haley McLean is the, is the author of this. I want to give her,

00:46:28.480 uh, due credit. And it says he was, he was in discussions with Speaker Pelosi. Okay. Democrat

00:46:35.320 leader, Chuck Schumer. Okay. They're in office. I understand that from, from one perspective that at

00:46:40.000 least you want to talk to them, but then it says he was also in discussions with Obama, former national

00:46:46.240 security advisor, Susan Rice and Obama's defense secretary, Robert Gates. Wait a minute. Those

00:46:54.320 guys are nowhere near the chain of command. In fact, they're adversarial to the chain of command.

00:47:02.480 So the idea that he's getting potentially advice from people who are in direct opposition to the

00:47:10.800 current commander in chief and going to them, I think that raises a lot of questions that absolutely

00:47:16.120 need to be answered. Final minute, Pete Hegseth, uh, just get your reaction to that and let people know

00:47:22.760 where they can get the book. We think we live in a world where when the commander in chief is facing a

00:47:27.620 crisis, he calls up this best and brightest and they figure out how to, you know, get it done.

00:47:32.480 When in actuality, Millie was a part of a group of people who were there to stop Trump, uh, and that,

00:47:37.840 that, that existed across multiple different departments. So the war on warriors is, is I wrote

00:47:42.880 it as someone who loves our military, wants to see it strong and ready, wants to prevent more wars by

00:47:49.360 having a strong military. Donald Trump can change that. If he's a, if, when he's elected, he'll have

00:47:55.120 the ability to choose a secretary of state and the chairman of the joint chiefs who aren't trying to

00:47:59.840 undermine him, but are trying to restore the military to what it ought be. Uh, the writing,

00:48:04.320 the war on warriors was, was part of an attempt to expose people to how bad it's gotten so that we get

00:48:09.120 a chance to fix it because you've got young kids. I've got young kids right now. I'm questioning

00:48:13.520 whether I would want them to serve. A lot of vets feel the same. Unless this institution has changed,

00:48:18.160 you're going to break down that family connection that people have. And then you have a real recruiting

00:48:21.920 crisis on your hands, Jack. So I just want to end by saluting, uh, again, on humans. It's a great book. I look forward to

00:48:28.000 reading it. I appreciate what you do. Uh, keep being bold. Appreciate that, Pete. And by the way,

00:48:33.760 stop by any time. We'd love to have you here. These are important stories. People need to hear it.

00:48:38.880 Check out the book guys, the war on warriors, Pete Hegseth, a warrior himself. Please tell him as

00:48:44.000 always. You have my permission to lay it short.
