00:00:25.780 The Poso Daily Brief.
00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:39.620 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.320 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.
00:00:49.920 The Senate surprisingly passed President Trump's no tax on tips proposal.
00:00:54.120 The bipartisan proposal is led by Senators Cruz and Rosen.
00:00:57.460 It allows tipped employees to deduct tips from federal income tax capped at $25,000 for those earning under $160,000.
00:01:05.560 I don't think the Republican Party has ever been so unified.
00:01:08.520 It's become a much bigger party.
00:01:09.920 You presided here, I think, for 32 years.
00:01:13.360 You presided over the destruction of the health of the American people.
00:01:17.740 Our people are now the sickest people in the world.
00:01:20.360 Seriously.
00:01:21.080 Because you have not done your job.
00:01:23.160 Could you have a different standard based upon the color of somebody's skin?
00:01:26.280 Would that be acceptable?
00:01:26.900 Well, I'm not the one arguing that.
00:01:28.100 Apparently you are, because you don't like the fact that they're white, and that's why they're coming.
00:01:30.640 No, I'm just asking you to say that that would be unacceptable.
00:01:32.100 Well, no, I would say that the United States-
00:01:33.640 That would seem to be a very easy thing to say.
00:01:34.820 The United States has a right to pick and choose who they allow into the United States.
00:01:38.260 He, in 1955, adopted a document which said, South Africa belongs to all who live in it.
00:01:45.900 But why wouldn't you arrest that man?
00:01:47.760 That man said, kill the white farmers, kill the white farmers, and then he danced, and
00:01:53.100 he's dancing, dancing, and it's kill the white farmers.
00:01:56.100 I think, I'm not sure, but I think if somebody got up in Parliament and started saying, kill
00:02:01.900 a certain group of people, he would be arrested very quickly.
00:02:08.860 That man is going all over South Africa, and that's not a small party.
00:02:13.320 That was a stadium that holds 100,000 people, and I hardly saw an empty seat.
00:02:18.960 That's a lot of people.
00:02:20.080 That's a lot of representation.
00:02:21.320 And those crosses, we have dead white people, dead white farmers, mostly.
00:02:28.420 Turn the lights down.
00:02:30.120 Turn the lights down, and just put this on.
00:02:33.060 It's right behind you.
00:02:34.840 Johan.
00:02:35.920 There's nothing this Parliament can do.
00:02:38.360 With or without you, people are going to occupy land.
00:02:42.340 We require no permission from you, from the president, from no one.
00:02:47.620 We don't care.
00:02:48.760 We can do whatever you want to do.
00:02:50.120 Who are you to tell us whether can you occupy land or not?
00:02:53.280 We are going to occupy land.
00:02:55.080 South Africa, occupy land.
00:02:57.680 That's who we are.
00:02:58.960 So what are we going to do?
00:03:00.500 How can we do?
00:03:01.340 We are going to do this ruthless Parliament.
00:03:03.380 We are going to do this ruthless.
00:03:04.380 There is no way to do this.
00:03:04.760 The president of the United States.
00:03:06.940 The president of the United States has never been scared to kill a revolution.
00:03:13.020 The president of the United States has never been scared to kill a revolution demand that at some point there must be killing because the killing is part of a revolution act.
00:03:20.180 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C.
00:03:41.040 Today is May 21st, 2025, Anno Domini. President Donald J. Trump just went full clockwork orange on the president of South Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa, there in the Oval Office just about an hour ago.
00:04:00.160 He said, oh, you want to tell me that there aren't white families being killed and slaughtered on your farmlands? Put the lights down, everybody. Let's play something.
00:04:12.080 And he rolled in a TV and made the president of South Africa watch this and then said, how are you going to allow this? How are you going to allow this in your country?
00:04:23.480 Why hasn't that person been arrested? Why do you allow this person to go around saying that he's going to kill white farmers at a time when we know white farmers said, oh, it's not happening.
00:04:34.400 President Trump started pulling out articles that he had printed out and prepared and said, what about this? What about this family? What about that family?
00:04:42.160 Thank God almighty that someone is finally speaking up about the abject horrors and the white genocide that is going on and being perpetuated in South Africa right now.
00:04:56.200 Look, President Trump understood this is the weak link of BRICS.
00:05:02.280 President Trump understands the leverage economically and geopolitically that it puts on everything.
00:05:08.120 Elon Musk standing right there and I just got to salute it.
00:05:12.500 Thank God someone is finally speaking out.
00:05:16.280 Thank God.
00:05:23.100 Understand what America first truly means.
00:05:26.280 Welcome to the second American revolution.
00:05:33.000 Well, Jack Posobiec back live here.
00:05:35.340 Human events daily, Washington, D.C., a day where the president of the United States just went in and absolutely spoke truth to the president of South Africa on the issue of white genocide that's going on in that country and what they're doing to the white farmers and why the Boer are now being brought and allowed to receive asylum in the United States because of the brutal slaughter of them and their people.
00:06:04.960 And their families and their families and their children for the crime of the color of their skin.
00:06:10.880 And Big Marco, of course, speaking truth as well in the well of the United States Senate or a Senate hearing room yesterday to Tim Kaine and other Democrats who also seem to have a problem with this.
00:06:22.780 He said, why are you why are you talking about the color of their skin?
00:06:27.260 And Big Marco responds, they're being killed because of the color of their skin.
00:06:33.040 You're here live on Real America's Voice and the Salem Radio Network.
00:06:37.900 I want to welcome in third hour of the Charlie Kirk audience as well.
00:06:41.520 Folks, while the media is obsessing about Trump getting a jet, something big is brewing and no one is talking about it except right here on Human Events.
00:06:49.240 Starting July 1st, 2025, under the Basil III International Banking Regulations, gold will be reclassified officially as a Tier 1 asset.
00:06:59.940 Now that puts it on the same level as cash and U.S. Treasuries.
00:07:03.540 Here's what it means for you.
00:07:05.000 Gold is money again.
00:07:07.580 In the first quarter alone, thousands of tons of gold were moved back to the United States from Europe.
00:07:12.680 And central banks worldwide are quietly stacking gold at record levels.
00:07:17.000 It's not a coincidence.
00:07:17.620 So if the most powerful institutions on the planet are hoarding gold, why aren't you?
00:07:23.140 Don't wait.
00:07:24.060 Call Allegiance Gold.
00:07:25.820 These guys will help you out to secure real physical gold and silver delivered directly to your home or safely positioned inside your IRA or 401k.
00:07:34.820 Now I've been partnered with them for years because I trust them.
00:07:38.240 Go to protectwithposo.com or call 844-577-POSO.
00:07:42.900 That's 844-577-POSO.
00:07:46.160 You could be eligible to receive up to $5,000 in free precious metals.
00:07:51.180 So you have everything to gain if you don't act soon and a lot to lose.
00:07:55.820 Gold is freedom.
00:07:57.300 Gold is sovereignty.
00:07:58.240 Now gold is money.
00:08:00.320 Once more.
00:08:00.760 That's protectwithposo.com or call 844-577-7676 today.
00:08:08.720 Very excited now to and honor to have on once again, a FCC commissioner, Nathan Symington joins us here on Human Events Daily.
00:08:18.580 Commissioner, how are you?
00:08:20.440 Jack, great to see you as always.
00:08:21.940 You know, it seems like it's nothing but good news from the White House.
00:08:26.240 So it's inspiring times.
00:08:28.460 Well, we love good news days.
00:08:31.340 We love they're all good news days because this is, as Scott Adams has said, this is the beginning of the golden age.
00:08:37.560 And I think it's actually happening.
00:08:39.700 So on that topic, there was a post that President Trump had made.
00:08:44.460 It was sort of in the process of his Middle East trip.
00:08:46.920 And he was talking about America being a world leader.
00:08:49.380 And a very interesting tweet that he said that America should be, or I guess Truth Social Post, I'm not allowed to call those tweets, I suppose, that America should be the worldwide leader in Wi-Fi, 5G, and 6G, talking about connecting every American to the world's best networks, offering up for free plenty of the spectrum, the 600 megahertz in the one big beautiful bill.
00:09:14.940 So I wanted to have you on to ask about the specifics of this plan.
00:09:21.420 People have heard about 5G, but I don't think people have really understood the difference between 5G, this now talk about 6G, how does Wi-Fi come into the play?
00:09:31.560 You know, I'm still trying to figure out how to get my hands on my own personal Starlink.
00:09:34.740 So if you could help me out with that, I'd really appreciate it.
00:09:37.700 But walk us through what President Trump is planning here.
00:09:42.460 Yeah, 100%.
00:09:43.580 So let's talk about Wi-Fi first, because that one's easy.
00:09:47.180 America is already the world leader in Wi-Fi.
00:09:50.300 Wi-Fi started out with the idea that we should be able to take what was then considered sort of garbage spectrum.
00:09:56.800 It's the same frequencies that microwaves operate on, which is why your microwave sometimes used to wash out your router in the old days.
00:10:04.540 So it was sort of low-value spectrum.
00:10:06.700 And there was this thought that, you know, what if we just open it up and let people experiment?
00:10:10.220 The Wi-Fi family protocols came out of that, and thus a lot of home networking was born.
00:10:16.500 And of course, we haven't remained idle in that one since.
00:10:19.640 We've expanded Wi-Fi to much higher bands, to the 5Ghz and 6Ghz bands.
00:10:24.880 And there's been very rapid adoption there.
00:10:26.660 Now, the United States is the unquestioned leader in world Wi-Fi, because there are a lot of countries where the 6Ghz band, which is where Wi-Fi 7, the fastest, newest version of the protocol, lives.
00:10:37.160 There are a lot of countries where that band is used primarily for cell phones.
00:10:41.360 That's the Chinese position, that they don't want that band used for Wi-Fi.
00:10:44.980 They want it used for cell phones, for 5G connectivity on cell phones.
00:10:49.300 And so countries that want some amount of American technology and some amount of Chinese technology find themselves sort of caught in the middle.
00:10:57.140 They have to make a choice.
00:10:58.640 Some Latin American countries have gone with the primarily American model.
00:11:02.360 Some Asian countries have gone with the primarily Chinese model.
00:11:05.880 Some European countries have sort of split it 50-50 and divided the band into a Wi-Fi part and a cell phone part.
00:11:11.300 My own view is that Wi-Fi has proven very resilient, adaptable, and that our efforts to keep expanding access to Wi-Fi have been good.
00:11:20.880 So we're already the world leader there, and I think the president's just acknowledging that fact.
00:11:26.480 Let me take 6G now.
00:11:28.480 People are wondering, hey, well, we got 5G.
00:11:30.460 4G is when we got broadband on our phones around 2012 to 2014.
00:11:34.980 So what the heck is 6G?
00:11:36.680 I think right now 6G is more of an idea than an actual product that you can buy.
00:11:42.720 So when the president is talking about opening up spectrum for 6G, he's talking about making sure that we have frequencies and power levels and contours mapped out so that when it comes time to get to the next wireless mobility protocol, we've got a place to park it so that we can get the receivers and transmitters configured appropriately and not run into other services with that.
00:12:07.080 Finally, with 5G, that's really the $64 billion question.
00:12:11.740 I say that billion with a B advisedly.
00:12:13.520 That number is probably too low because American companies have spent hundreds of billions of dollars on the necessary licenses and equipment.
00:12:21.440 It's the same in Europe, although they're a little behind on spending and their 5G connectivity is not as good.
00:12:26.720 But China has put huge investments in this in industrial applications where we haven't yet really caught up.
00:12:33.700 So I think there, when you look at what the president wants to do with reshoring industry and with strengthening our defense sector, as well as getting to next generation defense technologies, it's obvious that this road runs through 5G smart manufacturing.
00:12:46.420 Also an aspect of international competition, because if we want to be able to compete against China in port development projects and other large scale international industrial projects, we're going to need 5G as the networking protocol because that's become the worldwide standard.
00:12:59.940 And so the idea opening up is that companies will be able to then bid for this various space as it becomes open.
00:13:10.340 Is that the idea?
00:13:10.840 Yeah, that's a great point, Jack.
00:13:13.560 I'm glad you focused on that part because the technique that we pioneered in the United States for figuring out who should be allowed to use what frequencies was simply to auction them off.
00:13:25.480 The idea is that if you have a business plan and you can convince a bank to lend you the money to buy the licenses and some other fellow can't get a loan to acquire the licenses, then the banks have more confidence in your business plan than the other guys.
00:13:38.100 And we've just used that pricing mechanism to figure out what the public is most likely to benefit from.
00:13:44.800 So this concept of spectrum auctions is about 30 years old and there was a Nobel Prize awarded for it to an American professor in 2018.
00:13:55.520 Spectrum auctions are here to stay and they've been adopted the world over.
00:13:58.500 The alternative is for the government to pick winners and hold beauty contests where they decide just on the basis of some proposal what frequencies to allocate to what players.
00:14:07.540 The thing is, first of all, that's inefficient.
00:14:10.020 Second, it leads very often to corruption because if those licenses have a higher use, better use that's worth more, then the incumbent will flip them and pocket the proceeds.
00:14:19.960 And they shouldn't be doing that because the spectrum is a public trust that belongs inherently to all Americans.
00:14:25.100 That's why when the president says we're going to sell this 600 megahertz of spectrum and commercialize it, that's another way of saying he's going to make the wireless industry bid on it for access and then return the money to the treasury.
00:14:36.000 Well, that's actually very interesting.
00:14:38.820 And so, but he's, look, folks, President Trump is looking at our natural assets as a business asset for the United States of America.
00:14:48.280 This is what happens when you put a businessman in the Oval Office.
00:14:52.260 We'll be right back.
00:14:53.240 Jack Posobiec, Real America's Voice, Salem Radio Network.
00:14:57.040 We're on with the FCC commissioner, excuse me, Nathan Simonton.
00:15:01.560 Today, you know, they talk about influencers.
00:15:07.180 These are influencers and they're friends of mine, Jack Posobiec.
00:15:12.900 Where's Jack?
00:15:13.900 Jack, he's done a great job.
00:15:19.140 All right, Jack Posobiec, here we are back.
00:15:21.360 Human Events Daily here live and you're on Real America's Voice.
00:15:27.740 And the Salem Radio Network want to give a shout out as well to our folks watching on the live stream, the Rumble Chat, the X live stream, Getter, and wherever else you may be watching.
00:15:39.880 And even to you podcast listeners, yes, I know, not everyone gets to watch live.
00:15:43.560 So sometimes you got to you got to tune in a little bit later.
00:15:47.560 But very honored to have on the FCC commissioner, Nathan Simonton, with us.
00:15:54.120 And commissioner, so we were talking about 60 in the previous segment.
00:15:58.280 And we were talking about also President Trump's big, beautiful bill.
00:16:03.380 And there's a number of outlays that affect telecommunications and others in this bill.
00:16:10.060 Is this something that you view as supportive of what President Trump's efforts are, not just for innovation, but also for freedom of speech online and some of these various other issues from your position at the FCC?
00:16:25.040 Yeah, absolutely.
00:16:26.700 So as far as, you know, we've already talked about the spectrum commercialization part.
00:16:32.060 Jack, just to go back to your question, when you can get a Starlink, well, you know, the 6G standard may well stitch together cell phones and satellite internet once we finally have one.
00:16:42.360 So, you know, the idea that you'll just have to have different device modalities might be a relic of the past.
00:16:48.640 Hopefully we'll get there soon.
00:16:50.540 Anyway, but getting back to the big, beautiful bill.
00:16:53.100 So freedom of expression online is a real challenging issue at the FCC because we're extremely protective of the First Amendment.
00:17:01.780 And I think this is something that has to be underscored over and over and over because people will say that this White House is seeking to restrict freedom of speech.
00:17:11.300 First of all, I disagree on the merits.
00:17:13.280 But then second, I think there's a larger point to be made that in terms of practical freedom of speech, the ability to publish and say whatever you want online,
00:17:21.680 the United States is clearly far, far in advance of all the other industrial developed countries.
00:17:27.820 And the simple reason is that the First Amendment, together with the very broad readings that the courts have given to Section 230,
00:17:34.580 make it virtually impossible for any federal agency to step in and impinge in any way on anyone's speech online,
00:17:42.060 except, of course, unless there's some sort of backdoor coordination, such as, you know, was alleged with the prior administration.
00:17:47.260 Or on the other hand, if the speech is illegal for other reasons, such as consisting of an imminent threat that would be a criminal act under any means of communication, whether online or not.
00:17:59.740 So in short, the president has very little ability and certainly no desire to impinge on anyone's free speech.
00:18:06.200 And we have to begin the discussion with that acknowledgment.
00:18:11.780 To the extent that there is illegal speech out there, such as defamation, it shouldn't get special deference just because of the medium by which it's distributed.
00:18:21.000 But on the other hand, the idea that there would be some sort of anything for Americans to worry about in terms of freedom of expression online or in broadcast media or in any other medium,
00:18:30.220 it's simply impossible to support.
00:18:32.920 And it's very notable that the people who complain about this kind of stuff would never complain about much more active control of the media
00:18:40.700 and is the presence of state-sponsored media in, for example, Canada or Western Europe.
00:18:47.760 And this is huge, by the way.
00:18:49.680 That's something that, of course, I know my colleague Charlie Kirk is over there in the UK right now talking about freedom of speech issues.
00:18:58.260 J.D. Vance, the vice president, went over to Munich and was talking about these freedom of speech issues.
00:19:02.180 I recently had a long layover in London, and I was sort of joking around with saying,
00:19:08.900 oh, I wonder what I can post on Twitter while I'm here in London without running afoul of Keir Starmer and these types.
00:19:17.420 And this is a serious issue in many parts of the world.
00:19:19.720 It absolutely is.
00:19:22.600 I mean, we've certainly seen people who's in the United States who've gotten into some kind of trouble in their lives over tweets.
00:19:31.860 But I recall seeing that in the UK there are about 1,000 people a month arrested over tweets.
00:19:38.100 If that's a real number, that's amazing.
00:19:40.200 Because, of course, with the UK, you've got a population about a sixth or a seventh less than the United States.
00:19:45.960 Imagine if we were arresting 6,000 people a month, 7,000 people a month for tweets.
00:19:51.080 My gosh, you know, that would be almost, you know, that would be about, what, 84,000 people a year.
00:19:58.860 It's unthinkable.
00:20:00.080 It's crazy.
00:20:00.760 This just has no place within our political culture.
00:20:03.860 So the idea that people operating in that kind of media environment where you can literally go to jail for a tweet,
00:20:10.860 some of which, you know, seem pretty innocuous to me,
00:20:15.000 and in any case, very few of which are the ones which are alleged to be threatening to reach the Brandenburg standard in the United States to be illegal speech.
00:20:23.480 The idea that people in that environment are complaining about us, it just seems totally backward.
00:20:29.020 No, it's completely ludicrous.
00:20:30.360 Commissioner, I thank you for your stance on this and for speaking up on this very serious issue.
00:20:35.680 We are just out of time.
00:20:37.240 Thank you so much for being here.
00:20:39.540 Go follow him on X and various platforms.
00:20:42.580 The commissioner, I keep saying, chair, I keep wanting to promote you, maybe next time around.
00:20:46.340 The commissioner of the FCC, Nathan Symington.
00:20:50.000 We'll be right back here.
00:20:50.760 Jack Posobiec, Real America's Voice, and Salem Radio Network.
00:21:00.360 And Jack, where is Jack?
00:21:08.280 Where is Jack?
00:21:10.580 Where is he?
00:21:11.860 Jack, I want to see you.
00:21:15.500 Great job, Jack.
00:21:16.920 Thank you.
00:21:17.660 What a job you do.
00:21:19.100 You know, we have an incredible thing.
00:21:20.460 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad.
00:21:22.580 But we have guys, and these are the guys who should be getting Pulisic.
00:21:26.280 All right, Jack Posobiec, we are back live here.
00:21:31.960 Human Events Daily.
00:21:33.920 I wanted to bring you up on the Salem Radio Network as well as on Real America's Voice.
00:21:43.240 And today's just an incredible day with President Trump there at the White House, what he's done with South Africa.
00:21:53.840 Just truly remarkable.
00:21:55.380 Truly remarkable.
00:21:56.520 And really, this is only being done because of President Trump.
00:22:00.520 This unique individual with his unique constellation of supporters, colleagues, and the cabinet that he has put together is able to do this in a way that I really don't think anyone else would have ever been able to.
00:22:11.540 But one of the big issues, now of course we're talking about the issue of immigration, it still comes to pass that we face a lot of, and the Trump administration is facing a lot of these legal challenges to the deportations.
00:22:26.560 And so I wanted to bring on Will Chamberlain of the Article III project to walk us through quite a bit of this, including a recent motion, or I believe it was a ruling put out by a sort of response by James Ho to the Supreme Court that, Will, you were talking about last night.
00:22:47.960 Will, walk us through the merits of the case, walk us through what's happening here, and what was this really just a rebuke to the Supreme Court all about?
00:23:00.160 Right. So about a month ago, the Supreme Court, in a case relating to the Alien Enemies Act, put out an injunction saying that the government needed to not deport a certain class of people under the Alien Enemies Act.
00:23:16.500 They certified a putative class.
00:23:18.380 This was a really bizarre ruling, and it was really bizarre because no underlying court had yet ruled when the Supreme Court stepped in to issue this injunction.
00:23:26.920 The Supreme Court didn't actually have jurisdiction because it's a court of review.
00:23:32.520 It's not a court of first view.
00:23:34.140 So they need to have some underlying opinion before they actually get to do anything if it's not a case involving one state suing another state over water rights or something like that.
00:23:44.440 So I'm going to try to make sure I'm translating for the listeners here.
00:23:49.880 What you're saying is that the Supreme Court, of course, has the ability to take up cases on appeal and has the ability to make substantive rulings after the process has worked its way up the ladder, so to speak, to the highest court in the land.
00:24:06.900 But this was a case specifically where none of those rulings had yet to occur, and yet the Supreme Court was sort of making the first ruling in an instance where none had been made at a lower court.
00:24:20.580 Correct.
00:24:21.520 And that's the problem, right?
00:24:23.580 The Supreme Court, this is what's called original jurisdiction.
00:24:26.380 Original jurisdiction is the right to hear a case in the first instance.
00:24:30.460 The Supreme Court doesn't have that.
00:24:31.780 They have appellate jurisdiction, except in a very few number of circumscribed cases where the Constitution actually says cases about this topic or cases between these parties can be heard by the Supreme Court.
00:24:45.300 The Constitution famously, as you just said, says when it's a state versus another state over, you know, something like, like, right, I'm from Philadelphia.
00:24:53.500 And there's constant fights over, you know, who has to pay for dredging and who has to pay for the harbor and who's going to get who's going to get the jobs, who is this right or that right, even, you know, between the tri-state area, Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
00:25:09.640 Or, you know, there's also been fights, I think, over Liberty Island, Liberty Island, you know, New Jersey or New York.
00:25:14.860 You know, it's one of these one of these types of things because it's, you know, it sort of sits equidistant from from the various, you know, the various states.
00:25:23.100 You know, how was it that New York got Staten Island, not Jersey, you know, for example, you know, and all of these sort of works of history.
00:25:29.640 But right. That would be something that would be taken up between the directly at the Supreme Court.
00:25:35.080 Correct. And so Judge Alito pointed this out.
00:25:38.960 Justice Alito pointed this out in his opinion almost a month ago where he said, I don't think we have jurisdiction here, guys.
00:25:46.360 And then a week, a week ago, the Supreme Court reaffirmed its injunction and explained itself.
00:25:53.000 And it said in this opinion that in its view, the district court and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals had been slow in how they had responded to the plaintiff's request for an injunction.
00:26:04.980 Meaning the plaintiff said, these guys are going to be deported immediately.
00:26:07.960 You, the courts, must act ASAP.
00:26:10.980 And the Supreme Court agreed that these the lower courts were too slow and therefore had constructively denied the motions.
00:26:20.980 And so therefore, the Supreme Court had jurisdiction.
00:26:24.260 And Judge Ho, in today's opinion, I mean, the substance of this opinion doesn't really matter.
00:26:28.540 The Fifth Circuit today, all they did substantively was acknowledge that the Supreme Court had made a ruling and said that the case now needed to be heard again by another Fifth Circuit panel.
00:26:39.700 So there's not nothing substantive occurred.
00:26:41.460 But James Ho wrote a concurring opinion where he basically pointed out to the Supreme Court that under their logic, it is now basically they are now expecting district court judges to be not just having their courts open for documents to be filed 24 hours a day.
00:26:59.460 But rather they need to be following what's happening 24 hours a day because the Supreme Court said, well, the district court waited 14 hours and 38 minutes before resolving this case.
00:27:09.520 They started the time at 12 in the morning, at 1230 in the morning, so just past midnight.
00:27:15.300 So they're basically saying to all these district judges around the country, like, if you don't get to an injunction and rule on it first thing immediately, we can treat it as though you were lazy and didn't bother to hear the case and will hear it anyway.
00:27:30.440 Right. And Judge Ho points out, that's crazy. We're not a Denny's. We're not open for business in the same way, 24 hours a day.
00:27:39.980 We're not a Denny's.
00:27:42.260 It's literally in the opinion. He literally says we are not a Denny's.
00:27:44.920 Right. And so it's funny that, you know, and this has sort of been, I suppose, a trend now on both sides, you know, sort of like liberal justices making references to like Harry Potter and things that we've seen now.
00:27:58.560 And in this, you know, where, you know, this type of language isn't typically included in, you know, legal documents.
00:28:06.720 They're known for being very dry. They're being very, very straightforward.
00:28:10.860 But I think that, you know, and, you know, you tell me what you think, but to me, it speaks to just the complete aberrant nature of the Supreme Court coming in and essentially picking favorites when it comes to plaintiffs.
00:28:28.100 It's like, and by the way, doing so for Trendy Aragua members rather than say, oh, I don't know, a U.S. citizen.
00:28:35.720 A U.S. citizen doesn't get to get the fast track like this. And that's basically what Judge Ho is saying here.
00:28:41.540 Exactly. And if you look at the way Supreme Court justices in prior opinions, people like Justice Barrett have talked about the emergency docket, which is where this is all happening.
00:28:52.360 Right. The emergency docket is when you have these emergency injunctions going up to the Supreme Court.
00:28:57.880 All those opinions are about you need to give the district court time.
00:29:01.920 They need time to make a reasoned decision.
00:29:04.200 We want decisions to be made by the lower court district court and the circuit court.
00:29:08.640 So we have the benefit of their consideration and their reasoning.
00:29:13.340 There's all the, you know, you have opinion after opinion like this.
00:29:16.320 And then the moment the defendants are Trendy Aragua terrorists, they're like, oh, my God, we need to act immediately.
00:29:20.500 Right. And he's saying this, this idea that, you know, it is a slapback and it's a it's a it's a rebuke.
00:29:28.700 And honestly, I think that there are certain members of the Supreme Court that probably appreciate his words.
00:29:38.160 Yeah, I think I mean, certainly Alito and Thomas, who were in dissent here, appreciate his words.
00:29:42.200 And I think also it'll be a wake up call for Kavanaugh and Justice Gorsuch, who, you know, maybe were, you know, I mean, all this stuff is happening so quickly and they're so busy.
00:29:53.240 Maybe they really didn't think hard, which they should have, but they didn't think hard about the consistency of how they approach the emergency docket across cases.
00:30:00.620 And that consistency is it's a big part of their legitimacy.
00:30:05.080 If, you know, Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett weren't bending over backwards to let people open their businesses during covid, they weren't bending over backwards to allow people to write.
00:30:17.080 There's so many instances of integrity, others where they would say, oh, no, no, we don't want to weigh in.
00:30:22.380 We don't want to weigh in. We want to let the process play out.
00:30:24.580 We want to let the let the process play out rather than, you know, but we we do we do weigh in when it's a trend day, Aragua member.
00:30:33.900 And and I'm sorry, but when you when you tie that to Chief Justice Roberts is interviewed, very rare interview that he gave recently talking about how it is the role of the judiciary to curb the excesses of the executive.
00:30:49.000 It seems to me like it's very clear that they're just they're playing politics.
00:30:52.320 They're just playing politics. Right. And that's wrong.
00:30:55.560 What Justice Roberts said is wrong. It's the judiciary is not standing above the executive curing, looking for problems to cure.
00:31:02.760 Their job is to affirm the law and affirm the executive when it is acting in a lawful manner.
00:31:09.600 And it's and this is a huge issue, Will, because it's it's been something where and I know our mutual friend Mike Cernovich has talked about this recently,
00:31:17.540 where there is a check on the judiciary and it's supposed to be called impeachment.
00:31:22.340 It's in the Constitution. It's it's it's very I think it can use like, you know, once or twice at higher levels.
00:31:28.500 But but we really have come up into a system now where and this is the wider process or wider problem,
00:31:34.900 I think, is that Congress like doesn't really do very much anymore.
00:31:39.140 You know, you kind of get him to put up one of these CRs every once in a while.
00:31:42.500 But at the end of the day, all of the power in the country right now is centered within the presidency,
00:31:51.520 the bureaucracy, which is technically supposed to be part of the presidency.
00:31:55.040 But, you know, it's not for a lot of reasons and the judiciary.
00:31:59.480 So because power has been separated throughout these areas, we've we've come up with this strange system,
00:32:06.380 which is not the founder system, by the way, where we treat the judiciary as if it's literally the supreme highest governing body in America.
00:32:15.660 But that's just not right. It's not the system as it was designed, is it?
00:32:19.940 No, and it still isn't the system we have.
00:32:22.600 I mean, they might want it to be that way. They might try and be trying to encroach on the other branches power.
00:32:27.300 But we're a system of of co-equal branches of government, of the separation of powers.
00:32:33.980 So the the the judiciary is co-equal to the executive and the legislative branch.
00:32:39.820 And it's not that the judiciary gets to check the other branches.
00:32:42.660 It's rather that all the branches have the ability to check each other in the performance of their roles.
00:32:47.380 So the legislative branch, for example, can check the judiciary by changing the law.
00:32:51.680 That based on their rulings or they can also defund the judiciary, the executive branch can defy the judiciary's orders and refuse to obey them.
00:33:00.180 That's part of I mean, Marbury versus Madison, if you'll remember, you know, that's a big case that established the concept of judicial review.
00:33:07.560 But one of the things that happened in that case is that prior to the issuance of the ruling, Thomas Jefferson said that if we lose this case, if the Supreme Court disagrees with me, I don't care.
00:33:15.660 I am not going to rule and give this guy a judicial commission under any circumstances.
00:33:20.160 So this interplay between the branches is something that's a part of our constitutional fabric since the founding.
00:33:25.000 Right. And it's it's been there.
00:33:28.220 And yet we act as if it's not.
00:33:30.820 And unfortunately, what's the actions of this court, the actions of Roberts, the statements of Roberts threatened to perhaps upend this sort of gentleman's agreement between the presidency and the judiciary.
00:33:46.100 We're getting into real thorny constitutional issues here on Human Events Daily.
00:33:51.600 But that's why you tune in.

00:35:18.920 All right, Jack Posobiec, we are back.
00:35:22.020 Human Events Daily final segment.
00:35:24.620 We're on with Will Chamberlain, senior counsel over at the Article 3 project.
00:35:27.920 And we're talking about how because of sort of the – for a variety of reasons, polarization, the abrogation of power to the bureaucracy, that it really is the executive and the judiciary where we're seeing a lot of the action and a lot of the fights between President Trump and his policies.
00:35:46.720 Also, when you look at President Trump's policies, everything that he has done in his first 100 days and really up until this, quote-unquote, big, beautiful bill, it's all been executive action.
00:35:58.940 We haven't really seen Congress playing a huge role other than in the approval of the cabinet or in various appointments.
00:36:08.600 But when it really comes down to it, it is this interplay between the executive and the judiciary.
00:36:14.620 And, Will, when we left the last segment, we were touching on – it's a sensitive topic, but I think it's something that does need to be brought up, that in our original system, there was no idea that the judiciary would be supreme over the executive, that they would be – hold on, let me just say it – separate and co-equal branches.
00:36:34.260 So, if they were meant to be co-equal branches – this is like Constitution 101 kind of stuff around here on Human Events Daily.
00:36:43.820 Well, if that was meant to be then, the question is, what do you do when you have a judiciary that keeps stomping all over the actions of the executive?
00:36:53.220 Well, there are remedies, and I think they should be explored.
00:36:57.780 Jurisdiction stripping is one, which is to say that over a certain subset of cases, the courts lose their jurisdiction.
00:37:05.080 You can abolish judgeships if, you know, you can simply say, like, merge courts into different courts.
00:37:10.440 The only court that is mandated by the Constitution to exist is the Supreme Court.
00:37:15.040 All the lower federal courts, those are creatures of Congress, and Congress can alter them, change their jurisdiction, reduce the size of them, increase the size of them.
00:37:23.040 It's just totally up to Congress.
00:37:25.080 So, I think all those options should be on the table.
00:37:29.240 But really, I think it's just time for the Supreme Court to understand the problem and to understand the legitimacy crisis that they're facing here.
00:37:36.800 I think we were talking about Judge Ho's decision, sorry, Judge Ho's concurring opinion, and what Judge Ho's pointing out, again, is it seems like the Supreme Court is more indulgent of the problems of illegal alien gangbangers than they are of their own citizens, and that just needs to change.
00:37:53.920 And so, you know, this really has become the flashpoint of so many of these issues when, I mean, think about it.
00:38:04.020 The American people have voted again and again and again for some sort of relief on border and immigration issues.
00:38:12.760 It consistently comes up.
00:38:14.800 It polls as an almost 80-20 issue.
00:38:17.280 It's seen in case after case.
00:38:19.600 And yet it's becoming now that the last – and prior to the current administration, the prior Trump administration, the impediment to any actual action there was Congress, particularly in the Senate with the likes of McConnell and McCain at the time, not wanting to fund any of these things.
00:38:36.460 That's why, Will, I remember you specifically during the first admin were one of the first people that came up with this idea of using the emergency order declarations to be able to free up some of the money,
00:38:48.580 which is, by the way, done day one of the second administration now, by the way.
00:38:53.840 And yet it's the judiciary now.
00:38:56.740 It's the courts that seem to really be blocking all of this.
00:39:00.020 And by the way, when the left and the media say, oh, they need due process.
00:39:03.080 You know what? Due process.
00:39:04.180 That's not what you're talking about.
00:39:05.480 We all know the truth.
00:39:07.260 The truth is you're not worried about due process.
00:39:09.400 It's that you don't want President Trump actually deporting illegal aliens.
00:39:14.000 That's what this is about.
00:39:15.100 That's what this is all about.
00:39:16.240 And that's why they'll fight for these people, these these these abject scumbags, because they know that it's something that President Trump is trying to do.
00:39:24.720 And they just have this pathological response to it.
00:39:27.940 Yeah, it's actually a substantive debate with a procedural sheen.
00:39:30.940 That's a good way of thinking about it.
00:39:32.280 Right. The procedural sheen is this due process argument.
00:39:34.860 The substantive debate is about whether or not we can deport illegal aliens at all, because the Democrats understand that if they can throw enough gum in the works,
00:39:41.860 if they can enough sand in the gears, they can impose a certain number of process protections.
00:39:47.200 Well, then the 10 million illegal aliens that came across during Joe Biden's term can't be returned.
00:39:52.660 And I think that the problem that the judiciary needs to understand is that there's a Democratic legitimacy problem if they do that.
00:39:59.060 Because if what what one president did lawlessly cannot be reversed by another president, then and, you know, the Supreme Court had the opportunity to stop what President Biden was doing and didn't.
00:40:12.740 But they're going to stop President Trump fixing the problem.
00:40:14.860 That just doesn't work.
00:40:15.900 That that that that is illegitimate from a Democratic perspective.
00:40:19.200 And, you know, they can't get around that fundamental problem.
00:40:23.660 Not at all.
00:40:25.000 No, they can't.
00:40:25.880 Will Chamberlain, we are out of time.
