00:00:25.780 The Poso Daily Brief.
00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:39.660 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.260 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:49.380 Christ is dead.
00:00:50.420 Four people are dead, including a New York City police officer.
00:00:53.860 After a gunman opened fire inside a Manhattan office building, a fifth person is in critical condition.
00:00:59.100 Police have identified the shooter as 27-year-old Shane Tamura from Las Vegas.
00:01:04.240 Surveillance footage shows him walking toward the building, look, wearing body armor, sunglasses, and carrying a high-powered M4 rifle.
00:01:12.260 The gunman opened fire inside the lobby of 345 Park Avenue, home to the NFL headquarters, Blackstone, and other major firms.
00:01:19.440 New data shows Americans' confidence in the economy may be better than it was last month.
00:01:24.700 Take a look at this.
00:01:25.660 The new consumer confidence index is up two points.
00:01:29.880 Coca-Cola made with American cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup.
00:01:34.640 Coming soon.
00:01:35.580 We give people more choice and more ways to enjoy the Coca-Cola brand.
00:01:40.260 And enjoying this choice, the country's highest profile, cola connoisseur, President Trump, who famously has a Diet Coke button on his desk in the Oval Office.
00:01:50.080 We are very worried about the humanitarian problem in Gaza.
00:01:53.720 We see a lot of starving children.
00:01:55.420 We want to make sure they get food.
00:01:57.060 So we've got to get food to the neediest people.
00:01:59.320 We've also got to make sure that Hamas gets the hell out of Gaza and lets the food come into that terrible, terrible situation. 0.64
00:02:06.180 I'm looking for getting people fed right now.
00:02:10.220 I think that's the number one position.
00:02:12.480 Because you have a lot of starving people.
00:02:14.000 You have people that, you know, the United States recently, just a couple of weeks ago, we gave $60 million.
00:02:19.760 We'll be helping with the food.
00:02:22.240 You know, we have a lot of access to food.
00:02:24.060 We've got a lot of food ourselves.
00:02:26.080 And we're going to bring it over there.
00:02:27.380 We're also going to make sure that they don't have barriers stopping people.
00:02:30.200 You know, you've seen the areas where they actually have food.
00:02:32.020 And the people are screaming for the food and they're 35, 40 yards away.
00:02:39.140 And they won't let them because they have lines that are set up.
00:02:42.780 And whether they're set up by Hamas or whoever, but they're very strict lines.
00:02:48.140 So we have to get rid of those lines.
00:02:49.540 We can save a lot of people.
00:02:51.740 I mean, some of those kids are, that's real starvation stuff.
00:02:54.880 I see it.
00:02:56.160 And you can't fake that.
00:02:58.320 So we're going to be even more involved.
00:03:02.020 All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome on board.
00:03:03.880 Today's edition of Human Events DLA here live on Real America's Voice.
00:03:09.600 Today is July 29th, 2025.
00:03:13.960 Anno Domini.
00:03:14.960 President Trump wheels up from his whirlwind trip to Scotland in the United Kingdom.
00:03:21.080 He just took a press spray on Air Force One.
00:03:23.940 We're going to be monitoring that.
00:03:25.000 We're going to get audio.
00:03:26.140 If anything significant comes out, we're going to bring that to you directly.
00:03:30.680 A lot of news came out of the trip, of course, sitting down with Keir Starmer, really kind
00:03:36.740 of, you know, you could see a jovial relationship between the two of them.
00:03:39.600 But at the same time, he's making a lot of points.
00:03:41.900 He did bring up the question of freedom of speech, which the UK absolutely does not have.
00:03:46.500 Currently, certainly does not have at all.
00:03:48.380 And of course, when President Trump landed, I think the most significant thing that President
00:03:52.480 Trump said during his entire trip to the UK is that the invasion of Europe must be stopped.
00:03:59.620 It is so simple.
00:04:01.080 It is so obvious.
00:04:02.160 The fact that mainstream media isn't even pressing on it.
00:04:04.480 You don't even see people in conservative media talking about this.
00:04:07.340 He called what's happening in Europe an invasion that must be stopped.
00:04:10.380 This is absolutely correct.
00:04:11.600 He's also mentioned remigration.
00:04:14.440 Remigration is a process that absolutely needs to begin as well. 0.97
00:04:18.480 Again, Europeans must be able to have their own control of their actual countries. 0.89
00:04:25.620 Americans must be able to have control of our country. 0.97
00:04:29.140 It's really as simple as that.
00:04:31.240 And then you have a president like Trump who comes out and just says it.
00:04:34.640 And of course, nobody pays any attention to it.
00:04:37.320 Also, the trade deal with the EU, fantastic work there.
00:04:41.640 And everybody, I think, is completely silenced.
00:04:45.200 The critics, the panikins about the tariffs.
00:04:47.340 I remember a few arguments that I got into about that one with people.
00:04:50.640 They are completely silent now because, oh, look, the stock market has not crashed.
00:04:55.100 And I'm sorry if your NVIDIA stock was hit, but actually everyone else is just doing much, much fine, doing perfectly fine.
00:05:01.820 But then there was the subject yesterday that came up of Israel and the conflict in Gaza, the Gaza Strip, as President Trump reminds us.
00:05:09.940 And President Trump breaking with Bibi Netanyahu, J.D. Vance coming out as well.
00:05:14.820 So Netanyahu said, and has been saying over and over and over, that there's no starvation in Gaza.
00:05:20.060 And yet every single day on social media and mainstream media, there are a slew of images that come out and new images every single day about what's happening in, particularly it seems to be in these camps, in these refugee camps that were set up early on.
00:05:35.760 Human Events Daily covered this in great detail when the war began, talking about how displacement camps were set up so that military operations by the IDF could take place within the Strip itself going after Hamas.
00:05:45.820 It is these refugee conditions and these displacement camps that have come under fire and where the starvation conditions now, as President Trump has said, these are exhibited.
00:05:57.760 And the question of aid and food, here's what it all comes down to, folks.
00:06:01.580 You don't have to be pro-Israel or pro-Hamas to be pro-humanity, okay?
00:06:08.780 You don't have to come in and say all of this and all of that.
00:06:13.000 But what you do want to be able to say is it's war.
00:06:17.360 The war is what's driving all of this.
00:06:20.920 That's what's clear here.
00:06:22.380 And the best way to end all of this is to get an end point for that war, a ceasefire, and then some way of brokering a peace deal so that the civilians can get the help.
00:06:33.540 This is the same problem that America ran into in the global war on terror.
00:06:39.100 They completely ignored the issues with the populace while focusing on, oh, we have to have mission accomplished in George W. Bush-style policies.
00:06:49.700 And you look what's happening now.
00:06:51.040 America's support for foreign wars has cratered.
00:06:53.820 America's support and American support for Israel has now cratered.
00:06:58.260 And in fact, there's a slight, there's only a slight majority support for Trump's handling of the Israel-Hamas conflict right now.
00:07:08.240 And with Gen Z, it is absolutely crashing. 0.99
00:07:12.760 That's the key here.
00:07:14.440 And President Trump and J.D. Vance are calling it out.
00:07:17.260 Get to the end.
00:07:19.540 Do the right thing for the people.
00:07:21.300 Get rid of the terrorists and let people live in peace.
00:07:25.060 We'll be right back.
00:07:25.520 Stand in our way and our golden age has just begun.
00:07:30.360 This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:07:32.120 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.

00:07:43.580 All right, Jack Posobiec back live here.

00:07:49.240 Folks, did you know that in the last six weeks, 86 million AT&T users had their name, address, and social security numbers leaked?

00:09:13.920 All right, very excited next to have on huge news on the Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell front.
00:09:20.320 And here to help us break it all down is the great Mike Benz from the Foundation for Freedom Online.
00:09:27.120 Benz, how are you?
00:09:28.820 How are you doing?
00:09:29.280 Great. How are you doing?
00:09:30.800 I love that we both got the green shirt memo today.
00:09:33.840 So the latest, and this is just as we go to air.
00:09:38.340 There it is. There it is.
00:09:39.880 It's the Zelensky brothers here on Human Events Daily.
00:09:43.280 That, so Ghislaine Maxwell has agreed to testify before Congress.
00:09:51.080 Do we know what the ins and outs of that look like?
00:09:53.480 How is that going to play in with Todd Blanche?
00:09:56.540 I've got a meeting that I'm taking, that I'm going to be taking part in tomorrow
00:09:59.640 to get some more information regarding the DOJ side of it.
00:10:03.600 What are you hearing the latest is?
00:10:05.020 Well, we know that Ghislaine was given limited immunity to give up about 100 names to the DOJ.
00:10:13.260 And this is being touted as a kind of client list substitute, at least in messaging.
00:10:21.680 This appears to be a kind of backdoor way to try to get at the spider web of contacts that Epstein had.
00:10:29.420 And, you know, it's one of these stink bombs, the Ghislaine Maxwell testimony ever since I think the Daily Mail broke about two weeks ago
00:10:39.300 that Ghislaine wanted to testify to Congress, but that Republicans were blocking it.
00:10:43.980 I think that the force of MAGA fury about this issue has made it politically difficult to say no to.
00:10:52.220 Mike Johnson, the Speaker, came out and quickly said that Republicans were not blocking it.
00:10:57.860 And now there appears to be forward motion on it moving forward.
00:11:02.220 We see Democrats who were trying to kind of take this issue and use it as a kind of wedge of the Trump White House against the base.
00:11:13.700 We saw Jamie Raskin and the like trying to pick this up as a football.
00:11:19.600 And now it looks like the Maxwell testimony in front of Congress will likely diffuse any of that energy.
00:11:27.380 Although there are lingering questions about why it is happening now, of course, whether or not Ghislaine may be getting a pardon
00:11:36.400 and whether or not there may be some gerrymandering of the story that Ghislaine tells in order to try to make her own case for a pardon stronger.
00:11:46.560 That is, will she shield certain aspects of Trump world from the story she tells or will it really be the whole truth and nothing but the truth?
00:11:56.300 We'll see.
00:11:57.460 And of course, we're now seeing so she is she's made her offer.
00:12:01.820 And that's I want people to understand what the latest is on this.
00:12:03.960 This is just as of about 52 minutes ago that so Ghislaine Maxwell, through her lawyers, has put forward her potential offer.
00:12:11.860 And of course, this is a a a Maxwell maximalism, if you will, list of demands.
00:12:17.600 So she wants to grant a formal immunity for any or anything she testifies to under Congress, says the interview cannot happen at the correctional facility where she's serving her sentence.
00:12:27.960 Oh, she wants to come to Capitol Hill.
00:12:29.660 Of course, she wants to.
00:12:30.660 And they're asking to prepare adequately for any congressional deposition and to ensure accuracy, we would require the committee's questions in advance and is saying that the interview could only be scheduled after the resolution of her Supreme Court petition, where, of course, she's filed for an appeal.
00:12:49.120 So they're they're making a splashy headline.
00:12:51.520 But I'm not getting the impression that with demands like this, that this is something they're rushing into.
00:12:57.760 Yeah, me neither.
00:12:59.600 I think that everyone is on every side of the political aisle is a little afraid of what she she has to say if she's given a total unfettered podium to say it. 1.00
00:13:11.200 And there's, you know, again, the question of the unreliable narrator here, given that the sort of Damocles hangs over her head in terms of, you know, what is what is effectively a kind of life in prison, you know, whether or not she will be would be telling an honest story or giving honest answers, even under immunity.
00:13:30.580 As I said, you know, there's there's a clear goal, I think, by all parties involved in this for Maxwell, it's to do do a favor in exchange for a potential pardon or commuting of the sentence for Republicans.
00:13:45.460 It's to satiate the base and shield, I think, the Republican side of the Epstein story.
00:13:51.700 And for Democrats, it's to it's to try to find the dirt on Trump world to use that for the 2026 midterms.
00:14:02.300 And, of course, that's the goal.
00:14:04.300 But at the same time, for a situation that's been litigated and relitigated so many times, I just have to say that I still don't.
00:14:13.740 And I've said this throughout the entire, you know, carnival that this has turned into and that I don't think that if if there was anything on Trump, they would have put it out already.
00:14:24.400 It would have been out. We would have had it years ago.
00:14:26.140 It wouldn't have had to make up all this Russia stuff.
00:14:27.860 They wouldn't have had to, you know, go to such great lengths to try to, quote, unquote, get him on something if they had an easy, you know, political kill shot or political headshot like you could over something with Epstein.
00:14:40.580 And you even hear President Trump being, I think, a little bit more cavalier about talking about this now when he says, yes, there was an island.
00:14:49.340 Yes, Larry Summers from Harvard did go to the island.
00:14:52.940 You should look into him.
00:14:54.280 He's brought up other names.
00:14:55.320 He says there's a list.
00:14:56.200 I'd love to get that list, Mr. President, and all the information on that island, Reid Hoffman, so many others, because, Ben, the work that you've done, the work that we've done has really pushed this from a story that I think was very great.
00:15:10.280 This has been very grassroots driven all the way forward to now where you've got the president of the United States on overseas trips being asked about that and, in fact, responding to it at length.
00:15:21.660 Yeah, that's true.
00:15:22.700 So, you know, I always think of this as being a kind of mutually assured destruction kind of button.
00:15:28.860 There's the sort of the, you know, weapons of mass destruction element of the Epstein story, which is that if one side uses it against the other, the other, there's something about the Epstein story that can always be used in a double-edged way.
00:15:43.780 The fact is, is I think Bill Clinton has become kind of the go-to talking point for the Trump administration because he evidently went to the island, according to Trump, 28 times.
00:15:55.320 We know that Epstein was in the White House visitor logs for the Clinton White House 17 times.
00:16:00.580 We know that Jeffrey Epstein's lawyers testified that Jeffrey Epstein co-founded the Clinton Global Initiative.
00:16:09.540 We know that Jeffrey Epstein shepherded Bill Clinton around Africa in 2002, right when his presidency ended, right when Clinton was setting up the Clinton Foundation.
00:16:18.120 He was being essentially air chauffeured by Jeffrey Epstein from country to country.
00:16:24.700 You know, that being said, I do think there are considerable ties of Epstein to Trump world, not so much to Trump himself, although Trump is on the 1993 flight logs.
00:16:34.800 But this was also a time when it was 13 years before Epstein was ever indicted the first time.
00:16:42.280 And so I think that there's kind of a longer leash for things that that far back in in the distance, given that Trump is also on record having kicked Epstein out of his own Mar-a-Lago club.
00:16:55.720 But the fact is, they did travel in somewhat similar circles, from the kind of Roy Cohn network story to the Adnan Khashoggi strange tie-ins, where Khashoggi was an Epstein client and then Trump ends up buying Khashoggi's yacht.
00:17:13.980 There's several relatively high-level folks around the Trump administration who have their own kind of bizarre intersections with the Epstein story.
00:17:23.680 But they're not as direct as something like the Clinton flying to the island or, you know, co-founding foundations together and the like.
00:17:33.480 But, you know, I mean, and the fact is, as you mentioned, that the case has been litigated and relitigated so many times.
00:17:39.880 But the nature of that litigation is also under secrecy and seal.
00:17:44.340 The Justice Department just tried to unseal grand jury evidence and the court denied it.
00:17:50.740 That case was run by Maureen Comey, daughter of James Comey, who set up the whole Russiagate affair.
00:17:58.620 The same prosecutor who bizarrely handled or mishandled the Diddy prosecution, where you have another kind of Epstein kind of adjacent storyline.
00:18:12.280 So the fact is, though, to me, pressure really can't relent on this until we have answers about Epstein's intelligence ties.
00:18:19.880 It's so infuriating to me.
00:18:21.360 The fact is, is Pam Bondi could walk next door to the Office of Public Responsibility. 1.00
00:18:25.880 They did 21 months of investigation, we're told, looking into Epstein's intelligence ties.
00:18:31.700 All we got out of that investigation was a footnote buried on page 169 of a 348-page report, footnote 244.
00:18:41.640 And it doesn't answer anything relevant.
00:18:44.840 I want all of the transcripts from that.
00:18:46.960 I want all of the CIA Office of General Counsel.
00:18:49.300 We don't even know if the CIA has run a name trace on Jeffrey Epstein to know even the CIA side of the story.
00:18:56.300 And, you know, we keep hearing, oh, we'll get back to you on that.
00:19:00.140 We'll get back to it.
00:19:00.940 It takes two weeks for the CIA to run a name trace.
00:19:04.420 And this has been an issue now.
00:19:06.720 You know, Pam Bondi's been in her chair for something like four months, four or five months.
00:19:12.040 So there are easy answers.
00:19:13.820 And the fact that they're not giving them to us, I'm glad to see.
00:19:18.520 But you know what, though?
00:19:19.160 We've seen the motion.
00:19:20.640 We've seen the course shift.
00:19:22.020 Number two of main justice down there in that jailhouse. 0.69
00:19:24.700 We'll be right back.
00:19:25.440 Jack.
00:19:25.720 Talk about influencers.
00:19:27.180 These are influencers.
00:19:28.960 And they're friends of mine.
00:19:31.440 Jack.
00:19:32.220 So, like, where's Jack?
00:19:33.900 Jack.
00:19:35.020 He's done a great job.
00:19:36.380 All right, Jack.
00:19:39.860 We'll be back live.
00:19:40.760 Human Events Daily.
00:19:41.580 We're on with Mike Benz of the Foundation for Freedom Online.
00:19:46.460 And Mike has a great suggestion here and a great point that so many of the things that
00:19:53.340 we talk about, whether it be Epstein, whether it be J-6, whether it be the Boston bombing,
00:20:01.460 whether it be the Oklahoma City case, we keep turning up all of these instances, which seem
00:20:07.820 like horrific tragedies and are horrific tragedies, all of them, including Jeffrey Epstein.
00:20:13.480 What was done to those victims and those young girls is absolutely unconscionable.
00:20:18.180 And yet, it always seems that when you scratch the surface of these things, and I could list
00:20:22.080 a dozen more, you find some very strange intelligence ties.
00:20:27.180 So, Mike Benz, you've really been pushing this one so hard.
00:20:31.780 And by the way, not just in terms of what people speculate may be a blackmail operation,
00:20:37.560 but also financial and funding.
00:20:40.280 That's something that gets totally overlooked when people generally talk about Epstein.
00:20:45.560 Well, this is the most important part of intelligence work, is how do you actually fund
00:20:50.720 the network carrying out the covert action?
00:20:53.880 How do you actually arrange for that funding?
00:20:57.100 How do you secretly broker it?
00:20:59.360 How do you launder the money to conceal the illicit origin of the funds or the secret nature
00:21:07.420 of the funds?
00:21:08.420 And this was Epstein's primary vocation and specialty above all.
00:21:14.740 It was taking huge pools of donor money, brokering deals and everything from air transport and
00:21:23.860 logistics to pharmaceutical and public health to universities.
00:21:30.080 And all of these have these huge touch points.
00:21:33.420 I mean, you know, just a line item of a few strange CIA parts of the Epstein story.
00:21:40.100 You had the fact that he started his career right when Iran fell in 1979.
00:21:45.680 He's at Bear Stearns.
00:21:47.000 He goes on to handle the Bronfman family portfolio, the family office, effectively, of the Bronfman
00:21:55.380 family, which is effectively, you know, a very influential but quite deeply mafia-linked
00:22:03.500 family.
00:22:04.980 Well, the Bronfmans eventually fund Seagrams.
00:22:08.200 And interestingly enough, with the Bronfmans, they get involved in another sex cult scandal 0.98
00:22:14.600 years later.
00:22:16.220 Yeah.
00:22:16.840 The NXIV scandal.
00:22:18.580 Yeah.
00:22:19.020 Yeah, that's right.
00:22:20.860 But and I've I've talked to victims of that and and had direct conversations with victims
00:22:25.540 of that.
00:22:25.980 And that's just a totally crazy situation that it ties directly back to Epstein.
00:22:31.960 Right, right.
00:22:34.980 But Epstein was, you know, by his own by his own testimony in 1987, he gave an interview
00:22:41.800 and said one of his top clients was Adnan Khashoggi, who was the CIA middleman between
00:22:46.340 the U.S. and Israel and with respect to Iran-Contra.
00:22:50.600 And, you know, if he's handling sheltering assets for Adnan Khashoggi and Adnan Khashoggi
00:22:57.080 is the world's most prolific arms runner and the the top commission agent of Lockheed Martin
00:23:04.140 and Raytheon and everyone else and and the whole affair rides on this guy and his money
00:23:10.640 is being handled by Jeffrey Epstein.
00:23:11.980 That's a pretty big node for the CIA to have to know about, given that that's the
00:23:18.020 linchpin of their operation.
00:23:19.420 And then what's used in Iran-Contra for for smuggling the drugs and guns and cash to fund
00:23:26.020 that illegal war?
00:23:27.520 Well, it was Southern Air Transport, a CIA proprietary airline.
00:23:31.520 In 1994, Jeffrey Epstein negotiates the transfer of Southern Air Transport, that very CIA proprietary
00:23:37.140 airline, to move from Miami, where it was doing Iran-Contra work, to Columbus, Ohio, where
00:23:43.280 Jeffrey Epstein was given a, you know, a giant townhouse.
00:23:47.120 And that was where the limited was headquartered.
00:23:49.980 They the Southern Air Transport, the CIA airline moved directly to Columbus, specifically to
00:23:55.360 service Jeffrey Epstein's company, or at least the company he had durable power of attorney
00:24:00.340 over.
00:24:01.740 When Jeffrey Epstein bought Little St. James and the all of his property in the U.S. Virgin
00:24:08.820 Islands, that was also one of the seat of operations for Southern Air Transport, the CIA airline, because
00:24:14.540 the money laundering funnel for Iran-Contra started in the U.S. Virgin Islands before it was pushed
00:24:18.880 out to Swiss and Panamanian bank accounts.
00:24:23.300 You have this whole network.
00:24:27.440 I mean, I could go on forever about this.
00:24:29.620 But the fact is, we have an ODNI push right now to try to tell the underside of the iceberg
00:24:36.000 of what has been very visible American history, from the JFK files to the Martin Luther King
00:24:42.000 files.
00:24:43.700 And I don't think that we should limit ODNI's declassifications to the 20th century.
00:24:49.420 Now, obviously, what Tulsi has been doing has been completely fantastic around Russiagate.
00:24:55.720 She has run laps and is stunting on the Durham investigation, which was completely tepid.
00:25:04.860 Tulsi has done more in just a few months than Durham appeared to have done in his whole lifetime
00:25:10.120 in terms of investigative research of intelligence files and including them in Justice Department
00:25:16.300 referrals.
00:25:17.140 But the fact is, the Martin Luther King story has very strange intelligence adjacencies,
00:25:23.840 just like the JFK one.
00:25:25.240 I mean, we had the CIA ties to the JFK assassination on the front page A1 headlines of the Washington
00:25:35.160 Post just a week and a half ago with the Joe and Niedis story.
00:25:38.540 Tulsi just put out 230,000 files on Martin Luther King, which, again, it is also these
00:25:45.020 very strange intelligence links from Martin Luther King being shot and falling into the
00:25:51.400 arms of a guy who he thought it was his friend and bodyguard, but turned out to be an undercover
00:25:56.600 CIA.
00:25:58.300 And Benz, I should add, we're going to be running a special episode.
00:26:03.380 We just had Margaret Roberts on on the new book about Oklahoma City.
00:26:06.680 I'll have to get you a copy of it, brother.
00:26:08.840 And we're going to be doing next week an entire deep dive on Oklahoma City because this is what's
00:26:14.680 so great.
00:26:15.440 And Benz, I'm going to need to get you a MyPillow, man, because I'm going to say something that
00:26:20.740 is going to make you lose sleep for a week.
00:26:22.980 You know what two names come up again and again in the Oklahoma City story?
00:26:27.300 You know Merrick Garland is one, but the other one is Eric Holder.
00:26:33.960 It's Garland and Holder all over this thing.
00:26:36.860 And they both become attorney general.
00:26:39.500 Yes, they got their start in PatCon.
00:26:41.420 They got their start in working through the Elohim City.
00:26:44.000 It's all Patriot Conspiracy. 0.70
00:26:45.640 This was an operation, Elohim City.
00:26:48.180 And what did they do?
00:26:48.840 They set up fake right wing race militias to try to entrap citizens.
00:26:55.600 And one of those operations went wrong.
00:26:57.480 Mike, can we hold you over for a little bit?
00:26:59.240 Because we have a break right now.
00:27:01.360 President Trump apparently just addressed Epstein yet again.
00:27:05.780 And I want to play that audio for you and get your quick reaction if you can hold over
00:27:09.280 the break.
00:27:09.980 This this is huge.
00:27:10.800 This is coming straight from Mayor Force One, folks.
00:27:13.040 President Trump talking about Epstein while we're talking about Epstein.
00:27:16.560 Real America's Voice breaking news.
00:27:18.760 Don't turn the dial.
00:27:46.560 All right, Jack Pacific back live here at Human Events Daily.
00:27:50.360 Folks, I want to get right to this president.
00:27:52.380 As we were speaking just minutes ago, President Trump there live on Air Force One has been
00:27:59.020 bringing up Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell yet again.
00:28:03.120 We're going to play his audio for you.
00:28:05.440 I haven't even heard this yet.
00:28:06.320 We're going to play this right now.
00:28:09.800 Epstein has a certain reputation, obviously.
00:28:12.400 I'm just curious, were some of the workers that were taken from you, were some of them
00:28:17.120 young women? 0.64
00:28:18.460 Were some of them young women? 0.71
00:28:21.160 Well, I don't want to say, but everyone knows the people that were taken.
00:28:26.820 And it was the concept of taking people that work for me as men.
00:28:32.760 But that story's been pretty well out there.
00:28:35.120 And the answer is yes, they work.
00:28:37.560 Yes, they work.
00:28:37.980 Yeah.
00:28:38.640 What do they do?
00:28:39.340 In the spa.
00:28:40.360 In the spa.
00:28:41.080 Yeah.
00:28:41.400 People that work in the spa.
00:28:42.740 I have a great spa.
00:28:43.460 One of the best spas in the world at Mar-a-Lago.
00:28:46.120 And people were taken out of the spa.
00:28:48.280 Hired by him.
00:28:49.940 In other words, gone.
00:28:51.940 And other people would come and complain, this guy is taking people from the spa.
00:28:57.600 I didn't know that.
00:28:58.220 And then when I heard about it, I told him, I said, listen, we don't want you taking our
00:29:02.880 people, whether it was spa or not spa.
00:29:05.160 I don't want him taking people.
00:29:07.380 And he was fine.
00:29:09.120 And then not too long after that, he did it again.
00:29:11.780 And I said, out of here.
00:29:13.820 Mr. President, did one of those stolen, you know, persons that include Virginia Jeffrey?
00:29:22.400 I don't know.
00:29:24.300 I think she worked at the spa.
00:29:26.860 I think so.
00:29:27.780 I think that was one of the people.
00:29:30.000 He stole her.
00:29:32.440 And by the way, she had no complaints about us, as you know.
00:29:35.780 None whatsoever.
00:29:37.020 We've seen her.
00:29:39.620 All right.
00:29:42.420 So there you go.
00:29:42.980 Moments ago, President Trump knew that Epstein was doing this recruiting and Ghislaine Maxwell.
00:29:48.020 We know Ghislaine Maxwell was the one who approached Virginia Jeffrey there at the spa.
00:29:53.240 That may be why President Trump answered the way he did, because it was actually Maxwell
00:29:57.360 who recruited Virginia Jeffrey.
00:30:00.540 Mike Benz, get your initial reaction to that.
00:30:04.860 Yeah, it makes sense.
00:30:05.920 I mean, the timing lines up.
00:30:07.520 We talked about the fact that Epstein was hanging around Mar-a-Lago and the like in the 1990s.
00:30:13.960 They ran through somewhat similar circles in terms of the kind of Republican.
00:30:19.680 This, you know, pre-1993, Epstein was more Republican story than a Democrat story.
00:30:25.740 And it looked like Epstein was handling money for folks who were involved in Ronald Reagan
00:30:31.060 foreign policy, which seems which was a big early network of Donald Trump as well.
00:30:37.820 But, you know, the fact to me is.
00:30:40.700 We do need to get answers on this intelligence side.
00:30:45.320 I just feel like the clock is ticking on this.
00:30:47.380 The Justice Department will be much better prepared to ask questions of Ghislaine Maxwell
00:30:51.460 when they themselves have the answer.
00:30:54.080 And I'm happy to see this forward motion.
00:30:56.660 But it is a little bit infuriating that you have this kind of some of these things are easy to get answers to.
00:31:06.580 And the fact that they're they're leaving that part of the equation out.
00:31:10.780 I don't really care about the client list if I don't have an answer about why the client list matters.
00:31:18.400 That is, was there were there intelligence touch points to this?
00:31:22.520 Is that why the client list was protected for so long?
00:31:25.680 Is that why the network was protected for so long?
00:31:29.340 I feel like we're never going to get a full answer on this.
00:31:33.260 And there's going to be a limited hangout of some fashion.
00:31:36.820 But can you can we ask the Justice Department to make it a little bit less limited than the direction it's steering in?
00:31:47.100 What did the CIA tell the Justice Department when they when they I feel you, man?
00:31:51.840 Where can where can people go to follow you, brother?
00:31:54.100 Follow me on X on YouTube, on Rumble.
00:31:58.420 It's all at Mike Ben cyber.
00:31:59.920 I think that Ed Martin should be the lead on this from the weaponization.
00:32:03.740 So DOJ that way Pam doesn't have to run the whole thing herself. 1.00
00:32:07.840 Yeah, Ed is right there.
00:32:09.080 I think it's perfect.
00:32:10.340 Ben, thank you so much for that.
00:32:12.120 President Trump.
00:32:12.740 Now, when I go through, there's some more that has been coming out.
00:32:16.420 He's doing this press gaggle, as we said, on Air Force One.
00:32:19.580 Just released a new ultimatum on Russia.
00:32:22.620 We're going to play that for you right now.
00:32:24.340 Mind you, 10 to 12 days.
00:32:27.080 Is that has that started yet?
00:32:28.840 Or when can we, you know, see the official statement that that is the new deadline?
00:32:32.500 I'll tell you what, I'll give it to you now.
00:32:33.800 Do you want a big scoop?
00:32:35.040 Yes, please.
00:32:35.360 Everybody else, close your ears, okay?
00:32:37.480 You ready?
00:32:38.020 I'm ready.
00:32:38.400 10 days from today.
00:32:40.680 Got it.
00:32:41.200 Okay?
00:32:41.640 Got it.
00:32:42.160 Good.
00:32:42.520 We have a scoop.
00:32:44.540 And then, you know, we're going to put on tariffs and stuff, and I don't know if it's
00:32:47.760 going to affect Russia, because he wants to obviously probably keep the war going.
00:32:53.620 But we're going to put on tariffs and the various things that you put on.
00:32:58.300 It may or may not affect them.
00:33:00.060 So he actually limited an extra day.
00:33:03.860 Remember, yesterday he said 12 days, 10 to 12 days, and now he's saying 10 days from
00:33:07.900 today.
00:33:08.620 So that means it's an 11-day thing.
00:33:11.140 The tariffs, by the way, would mainly be on those who do.
00:33:14.840 All right, guys.
00:33:15.840 So that's the end of President Trump's comments there.
00:33:19.520 President Trump talking.
00:33:20.300 It sounds like economic sanctions and or tariffs is what he's implying there regarding
00:33:26.500 Russia 10 days, just 10 days from today.
00:33:32.420 And this is huge, because he has not talked about this yet.
00:33:36.660 We've actually got from humanevents.com, who has a new column up there, Dr. Shea Bradley
00:33:42.540 Farrell is joining us.
00:33:45.820 Dr. Bradley Farrell, can I get your...
00:33:47.960 You've written this huge column all about foreign policy at humanevents.com.
00:33:52.700 Everyone needs to go read it.
00:33:54.280 But can I get your initial reaction and read on President Trump there, the 10-day deadline?
00:34:00.240 Yeah, Jack, you know what?
00:34:01.580 This has potential to be big and to bring Russia to its knees finally. 0.95
00:34:07.420 And the reason I say this is Trump has hinted at putting 100% tariffs on countries that are
00:34:16.260 buying Russian energy.
00:34:17.960 And Russian energy, I believe, is Russia's biggest source of income.
00:34:23.120 In fact, Russia used its own energy against Europe once they put energy sanctions on Russia
00:34:30.720 at the beginning of the Ukraine war.
00:34:32.640 Well, Russia turned that right around on them, cut the amount of energy down that they were
00:34:38.540 supplying Europe, which drove Europe's prices high and really has put the economy in decline.
00:34:45.120 And this was something that Trump told Europe not to do, if you will remember that, not
00:34:51.340 to rely on Russian energy.
00:34:53.420 If you remember, the Germans laughed at President Trump at the United Nations in the first administration.
00:35:00.060 But anyway, Russian oil and gas is a big deal to them.
00:35:04.600 And we have seen that President Trump has been extremely successful in putting American interest
00:35:12.000 back at the heart of foreign diplomacy using tariffs as a leverage tool.
00:35:17.220 Well, and this has been, so this is, and I want to read everyone the headline, and this
00:35:21.560 is what we're planning to talk about today.
00:35:23.740 Under Trump, foreign policy is a return to sovereignty for the United States and global nations.
00:35:31.240 So walk us through your theory of the case for Trump's foreign policy, perhaps the trunk
00:35:36.960 doctrine.
00:35:37.360 Yeah, Jack, you know, what's really cool is that Trump is actually crushing the status
00:35:43.440 quo of the U.S. foreign policy establishment the way we've been doing it for decades since
00:35:49.560 the end of World War II, changing the economic system globally, changing the political system.
00:35:55.320 And it's very big that he, we have taken a sovereignist turn under Trump's foreign policy
00:36:02.540 because it is in direct opposition to the globalist agenda.
00:36:07.340 So the leadership of the European Union, the United Nations, and other international organizations.
00:36:13.800 And what is really interesting about it, Jack, is Trump is protecting our sovereignty.
00:36:19.060 We see that with him closing borders, getting us out of these international organizations
00:36:24.280 that are not in our benefit.
00:36:27.100 But also, at his heart, he wants to protect the sovereignty of other countries.
00:36:32.760 He spoke about this in our first administration.
00:36:35.680 But if you look at the second one, he is really putting, you know, action into it.
00:36:41.980 He reduced the U.S. Agency for International Development, its funding, to about 18% of what it was.
00:36:49.220 And, you know, during the Obama administration, I had done some research.
00:36:54.400 I was actually an international development professional.
00:36:57.260 And I uncovered through my research that we had all these corrupt programs that taxpayers were paying for,
00:37:04.320 that were interfering in political systems of other countries,
00:37:07.700 that were promoting the sexual orientation, gender identity, like curriculum,
00:37:13.140 to school kids in developing countries, like with scales where you could measure how you felt sexually that day,
00:37:20.600 or how you felt in your gender that day.
00:37:22.820 This is what we were paying the U.S. aid to do in other countries.
00:37:28.460 And Trump said, no, and I'll end with this, Jack.
00:37:32.680 I had, at that time, religious leaders from Africa, members of parliament from European countries,
00:37:39.360 leaders of all types coming to me and saying,
00:37:42.640 your country, your foreign aid is trampling on our sovereignty, our religion, our culture.
00:37:48.700 Can you please help us?
00:37:50.020 So that is now what the Trump administration is doing,
00:37:53.180 and it improves our public image around the world.
00:37:55.980 And that's what it comes down to.
00:37:59.120 It's if we're pushing this insane nonsense through USAID,
00:38:04.620 and I support the work so much of cutting those programs,
00:38:08.260 still a lot more cutting that needs to go on, according to my sources at State Department.
00:38:12.300 We'll be right back.
00:38:13.040 Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice.
00:38:16.140 Jack is a great guy.
00:38:27.340 He's written a fantastic book.
00:38:28.980 Everybody's talking about it.
00:38:30.200 Go get it.
00:38:31.360 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.
00:38:35.280 And we're going to turn it around and make our country credit.
00:38:38.380 Amen.
00:38:38.820 All right.
00:38:43.040 Jack Posobiec, we're on back live.
00:38:45.640 We're talking about President Trump and how he's really leading this push for,
00:38:49.520 I love the way that Dr. Shea Bradley-Farrell has put this,
00:38:54.600 and we've got her new column up at humanevents.com,
00:38:58.420 Sovereignists.
00:38:59.960 And this idea of, because, yeah, you could say America first,
00:39:02.260 but then, of course, the problem is how do you align that with other countries that have our goal?
00:39:08.400 And the goal is what is the opposite of globalism?
00:39:11.340 Well, the opposite of globalism is sovereignty.
00:39:14.260 So, Dr. Shea, walk us through some of this,
00:39:16.160 because you mentioned in your piece Hungary.
00:39:18.660 Obviously, you and I were in Hungary.
00:39:20.700 We've been to a number of CPAC Hungries.
00:39:22.420 I was just at CPAC Poland.
00:39:23.800 I'm actually going to be returning to Poland for the inauguration in just about one week.
00:39:30.040 And really, these are all Viktor Orban and Nawrowski, the new Polish president.
00:39:36.840 They won because they stand for the sovereignty of their countries.
00:39:39.320 I think there might be an audio issue there.
00:39:41.260 Can we see what's going on with that?
00:39:43.760 Can you hear me?
00:39:44.440 Oh, wait, there it is.
00:39:45.280 There it is, Dr. Shea.
00:39:46.040 That was my fault.
00:39:46.900 I apologize.
00:39:48.000 But I was saying you were absolutely right that I have seen a rise in nationalism,
00:39:52.740 not just in governments around the world, but in the population.
00:39:56.740 I mean, you're talking about the president in Poland that was just narrowly elected
00:40:01.780 in opposition, really, to the stance of the prime minister.
00:40:06.140 That's a great win.
00:40:08.140 The Freedom Party in Austria has increased greatly in the number of votes and support it has.
00:40:15.680 The AFD party in Germany, all of these are conservative parties
00:40:19.400 focused on protecting the sovereignty of the nation state.
00:40:25.120 And it's directly opposed, like you just said, to the globalist agenda,
00:40:30.360 to the leadership of the European Union and of the United Nations
00:40:34.100 and of these other international organizations.
00:40:36.780 And so what President Trump has done in terms of laying out this new form,
00:40:44.020 this has really broken the back of the idea that we had before of this international liberalism
00:40:49.560 that was really pushed by first Obama and then Biden.
00:40:54.820 Yeah, you are absolutely right about that.
00:40:57.660 And our allies are very excited and encouraged by this.
00:41:02.580 You and I just saw each other at CPAC Hungary about a month ago.
00:41:06.220 And before that, I had done a five-city book tour on a book that I wrote about Hungary
00:41:12.760 called Last Warning to the West.
00:41:14.540 It's actually a book for Americans to warn us about the Marxism
00:41:18.800 that has crept into the United States and the West.
00:41:23.160 But in that book tour, Jack, I talked to hundreds of people
00:41:27.440 that were so encouraged that President Trump was in leadership.
00:41:31.920 There was a real leader of the United States now that was not bent on trampling on their sovereignty,
00:41:40.480 pushing ideologies and programs and political interference into their countries.
00:41:46.540 Because, Jack, as you know, Europe also is really dealing with this.
00:41:50.760 They are under attack with lawfare.
00:41:55.440 Their freedom of speech is under attack.
00:41:57.820 You look at Germany. 0.59
00:41:59.840 I just talked to a member of the AFD party whose home was raided
00:42:07.280 because he had the audacity to actually criticize a political leader.
00:42:14.140 So if you post something like that, criticizing a political leader in Germany on X,
00:42:19.960 it can get your home raided and you jailed.
00:42:23.040 So they're having a lot of problems.
00:42:25.180 But there's a lot of conservatives that are joined with us, as you well know.
00:42:30.880 And we need to stand together because I think the Trump administration
00:42:34.320 is a fantastic time for us to defeat the globalist agenda together.
00:42:42.320 I couldn't agree more.
00:42:43.900 Dr. Shea, where can people go to get access to your new article and to follow you?
00:42:47.940 Well, go to Human Events, of course, Jack.
00:42:52.120 I am a regular columnist now, and I'm very proud of that.
00:42:56.360 Human Events is such a great media outlet because it tells the truth.
00:43:01.480 And you can find out about what we do at counterpointinstitute.org
00:43:05.640 or follow me on X at DrShea underscore DC.
00:43:10.280 Thank you, Jack.
00:43:11.180 I appreciate what you do.
00:43:13.440 Thank you so much, Dr. Shea.
00:43:14.400 God bless.
00:43:14.840 Folks, when we hear President Trump now, and we've talked before about this issue,
00:43:21.700 and really going back to what we talked about at the beginning of the story,
00:43:24.360 we're really talking about commander's desired end state.
00:43:26.800 And the commander's desired end state, he's the commander-in-chief,
00:43:29.680 the commander of the entire U.S. foreign policy,
00:43:32.760 and the commander of, obviously, U.S. armed forces.
00:43:37.420 The idea should be, and President Trump has said over and over,
00:43:41.320 that he wants to end these wars.
00:43:43.800 Now, the question, of course, for Russia is, and I've said this over and over and over,
00:43:50.700 and I'm going to bring up something that perhaps nobody has mentioned yet when it comes to this,
00:43:56.600 but could it be that President Trump is pushing harder for an early end or an early deal with Russia?
00:44:03.920 And what did we talk about yesterday?
00:44:05.640 A potential impending collapse in Ukraine, not just of the military front,
00:44:12.700 but what we're also seeing is a deteriorating political position.
00:44:17.080 And we had Dan Caldwell, former Trump DOD official, on to talk about this.
00:44:22.100 And now Zelensky faces a deteriorating political position in Kiev, a city where he's currently in.
00:44:30.020 We'll see if he makes it to London by Christmastime.
00:44:34.320 And a potential military collapse where the stakes couldn't be higher.
00:44:39.440 And President Trump certainly doesn't want to see scenes out of Ukraine
00:44:42.500 that looked like Afghanistan during that collapse of Kabul, the fall of Kabul.
00:44:47.960 And so perhaps it could be that they're looking very hard to freeze that conflict prior to this.
00:44:54.020 And that could be why he's ratcheting this up.
00:44:56.960 Remember, President Trump has, we've got access to intelligence and sources and information that's out there.
00:45:03.280 Absolutely. We have translators. I have an in-house translator for a variety of places of the world.
00:45:11.320 But at the same time, we have nowhere near the level of intelligence that President Trump has
00:45:16.420 and briefing that President Trump has on all of these issues, whether it be Israel, Gaza,
00:45:22.680 whether it be East Asia and the Chinese Communist Party, and certainly here with Russia, Ukraine.
00:45:28.660 And so is President Trump trying to shut this down because he's worried about a potential collapse in Ukraine?
00:45:35.760 And that's exactly what we've been talking about for weeks at this point,
00:45:39.200 that the Russians would be looking for the end of July.
00:45:42.020 And we are now in that end of July to push out beyond those well-defended Eastern Russian-speaking provinces,
00:45:51.040 those cities that are now currently being enveloped.
00:45:53.660 And what we're now seeing is this big push where the Russians are pinching those. 0.55
00:45:58.800 And what did we talk about with Dan Caldwell yesterday?
00:46:01.040 The supply lines.
00:46:02.400 If you cut the supply lines of an army, then you have effectively ended and neutralized that army's ability to make war.
00:46:11.120 And if you do so, and the vast majority of those forces are forward rather than in more defensible rear positions
00:46:19.380 where you're shortening your supply lines, then the question really is, what comes next?
00:46:24.060 What would come next is a collapse.
00:46:27.320 So that's certainly an angle of all of this.
00:46:30.280 I do think as well that President Trump is, of course, as he says, very disturbed by what he sees on television,
00:46:36.920 by the information and intelligence that is being provided to him as well.
00:46:40.860 The conditions in the Gaza refugee camps, the conditions on the ground in Ukraine,
00:46:46.440 the body bags, the people dying, and the civilians,
00:46:49.420 which I've been talking about now here on Human Events Daily for three years straight when it comes to Ukraine,
00:46:55.200 after having visited Odessa and particularly Nikolaev, seeing people who live within harm's way,
00:47:02.120 where people who live close to the front in cities that are being bombed day after day.
00:47:06.380 Just visited Kiev again back in February with Secretary Besson, and we saw buildings that had been hit.
00:47:12.220 In fact, there was a bombing the day that we arrived, a drone attack.
00:47:16.060 People are being caught in the middle as the empires rumble.
00:47:20.880 And it is a noble goal, a truly noble goal for President Trump and for the world
00:47:27.280 to put an end to these conflicts to seek a peaceable solution and to help the civilians
00:47:34.340 while still understanding that you're never going to get to a true peace or an actual truce
00:47:41.960 and understanding around the world until you have direct conversations between those world leaders.
00:47:49.040 And that's what it's going to take, absolutely, when it comes to Russia.
00:47:53.460 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission, play a short.
