00:00:25.820 The Poso Daily Brief.
00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth-generation warfare.
00:00:36.100 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:47.300 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:50.300 Christ is king!
00:00:51.940 A second U.S. aircraft carrier is being sent to the Middle East, and here is what we're
00:00:56.660 learning from the Associated Press.
00:00:58.100 They're reporting that the United States will send the world's largest aircraft carrier to the Middle East to back up another already there,
00:01:05.560 putting more American firepower behind President Trump's efforts to coerce Iran into a deal over its nuclear program.
00:01:13.420 The United States is expanding its military presence in Nigeria.
00:01:17.680 Donald Trump is now sending 200 American soldiers to Africa's most populous nation.
00:01:23.320 Officially, it's a training mission.
00:01:24.720 A U.S. official confirmed on Tuesday that roughly 200 troops will be deployed to train Nigerian forces battling terrorist groups.
00:01:33.160 We're going to litigate. We've got an attorney general that's well versed in litigation.
00:01:40.220 That was the response from Governor Gavin Newsom when ABC10 asked him what the state plans on doing about the Trump administration's plan to cut public health grants from the state.
00:01:48.680 This comes just weeks after the Trump administration stopped funding for child care subsidies and other social service programs from California that's since been caught up in the courts.
00:01:58.340 A spokesperson for the Office of Management and Budget says it would be $328 million because of a history of fraud and mismanagement.
00:02:06.740 We've had great success with this operation and we're leaving Minnesota safer.
00:02:11.300 This legislative session needs to be about recovery of the damages done to us.
00:02:16.220 I am also asking our team, I'm going to make appeals to our federal delegation.
00:02:20.460 The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here.
00:02:23.860 There are going to be accountability on the things that happened.
00:02:26.600 But one of the things, the incredible and immense costs that were borne by the people of this state, the federal government needs to be responsible.
00:02:34.600 You don't get to break things and just leave without doing something about it.
00:02:38.440 So we're going to be asking the federal delegation to be investing and doing the things necessary.
00:02:43.080 ICE officials were here, and so were contractors, trying to get an idea of what it would take to convert this massive warehouse into a detention center.
00:02:52.100 You just saw a woman try to set this building on fire.
00:02:55.320 Yeah, we did, Chris. She just left a few minutes ago. 0.98
00:02:58.260 But if we take a look, you can see there's some windows there along the south part of the building, and there might be some scorch marks you might be able to see.
00:03:07.560 any money where we are spending and sending weapons to nato and because of the increase from
00:03:14.360 two percent to five percent of gdp that the nato countries are paying they pay us full for the
00:03:19.580 weapons and then they distribute the weapons to mostly i guess ukraine but that's up to them they
00:03:25.940 buy them and we do make the greatest weapons of any country in the world by far most effective
00:03:31.620 weapons so my message to all of the warriors here today is that your commander in chief
00:03:37.140 supports you totally i have i support you more than i know you've had a couple of good ones not
00:03:43.640 that many if you want to know the truth but we support you more than any of them and you're
00:03:49.820 going to get out and when needed you're going to fight fight fight you're going to win win win
00:03:53.480 and we're going to continue to make our country bigger and better and stronger than ever before
00:04:00.420 and that's exactly where we are right now. We are the most respected country anywhere
00:04:05.600 in the world. And I say it. The king of Saudi Arabia told me when I was there, he spent
00:04:09.500 $2 trillion. We have $18 trillion being invested right now in our country from other companies
00:04:15.540 and countries all over the world. The most any country's ever had is $3 trillion. That
00:04:20.620 was a long time ago. It didn't happen to be us. It was another country. It starts with
00:04:24.800 the sea. Can you imagine what I'm talking about China? We have 18 trillion being invested. As an
00:04:31.440 example, in the Biden four years, they had less than a trillion. Think of this less than a trillion
00:04:37.100 over four years. We have 18 trillion in 11 months because we haven't gotten the final numbers on the
00:04:43.460 12 months. So that's only going to go up. There's never been anything like it. But the king of
00:04:48.220 Saudi Arabia looked at me and says, you know, a year and a half ago, I thought the United States
00:04:54.060 of america was finished i thought it was dead and now you have the hottest country anywhere in the
00:05:00.460 world we have the hottest country anywhere in the world and you're a very very big part of it
00:05:04.600 thank you to the army thank you to everybody here thank you also to our great politicians
00:05:10.080 they're great leaders and they love you as much as i do thank you very much everybody thank you
00:05:24.060 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:05:39.280 Guys, throw the president back up on the side there.
00:05:43.420 And today is February 13, 2026.
00:05:47.080 Anno Domini, President Trump there with the first lady, Melania Trump herself,
00:05:53.180 Of course, coming off of her massive success of a documentary that's just come out, the movie Melania.
00:06:00.320 You can go see that in theaters.
00:06:02.200 It's also going to be up on Amazon.
00:06:04.440 He's down there speaking at Fort Bragg, speaking to the military.
00:06:08.660 Folks, you understand Fort Bragg is the head of JSOC, the head of our Tier 1 operators.
00:06:14.840 That is where their higher headquarters is.
00:06:17.360 So some of the some of the country's most serious missions, the top missions, Fort Bragg is where they're run out of the missions that, quite frankly, don't even make the headlines.
00:06:27.520 You know, the they say the goal of a clandestine operation, a true successful clandestine operation is that nobody even realizes that an operation ever took place.
00:06:41.360 So that's the difference between covert and clandestine.
00:06:43.960 And covert is, of course, an operation that is kept secret and then eventually revealed clandestine is one, again, where you don't want anyone to think that an operation even occurred.
00:06:57.080 That's what JSOC does. Tier one, best of the best, Fort Bragg. Of course, you got Delta Force CAG there, right there.
00:07:05.000 with, so you see a lot in the audience. And there's President Trump greeting some of the best
00:07:10.980 and finest men that this country has to offer. Right back, Human Events Daily.
00:07:21.140 And in our way, and our golden age has just begun. This is Human Events with Jack Posobo.

00:07:48.240 right down to which cell phone provider we support.
00:07:51.180 Here's what most people don't realize.
00:07:52.880 Patriot Mobile is not just a wireless provider.
00:07:55.780 They're an activist organization funded by selling top-tier cell phone service.
00:08:00.480 They've been on the front lines defending our freedoms long before it was cool,
00:08:04.660 standing in the gap when others wouldn't.

00:08:18.260 Get unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international roaming, and more.

00:08:51.160 All right, folks.
00:08:52.040 Lots of sparks, flying, fireworks, of course.
00:08:56.660 Jeffrey Epstein. There was a hearing this week with the attorney general and ultimately more questions than answers.
00:09:06.560 More anger than action seems to be going on right now.
00:09:12.080 And there's even people who say that we should move on from Epstein.
00:09:15.180 So I want to make things very clear. We are not moving on from Epstein.
00:09:21.160 We cannot as a country move on from Epstein until we receive something called accountability, accountability for the victims, accountability for the blackmail operations and accountability for the lies that were told to the American people by the ruling elite.
00:09:41.420 that we're making decisions while committing some of the most horrific acts of evil,
00:09:48.860 unspeakable, disgusting acts. I want to bring on now someone who is well aware of the capabilities
00:09:56.060 of the intelligence community, the former director of the DIA itself, General Michael Flynn joins us.
00:10:03.440 General, how are you? Great, Jack, and thanks for having me on. Appreciate it.
00:10:07.320 Well, I'm happy to. I wanted to get your assessment. Of course, it's been about two weeks since this new tranche has come out. We've seen, you know, so many different things people parsing through from a high level perspective. What is your assessment on Epstein phase two disclosures?
00:10:24.320 Well, first of all, Jack, the country, the world, anybody that has children is not going to move on from this.
00:10:33.440 So I'm afraid that, you know, for the political leadership that we have in Washington, D.C., this is not going to go away.
00:10:41.620 So the real big picture here that's emerging is that Epstein not acting alone was a massive, massive elite intelligence operation to gain control and influence over decision makers across the world, whether it's in the political or business world.
00:11:06.960 But clearly, they they got their they got their mission accomplished in a big, big way, as we are seeing in this sort of daily, you know, dropping of these emails and this more people, more, more and more people are digging into the to the tack, you know, to the weeds of it.
00:11:26.280 And it's disgusting. I mean, it's absolutely disgusting. And as I posted on on X today, you know, this is an intelligence operation of the worst kind because it actually uses children.
00:11:39.500 And that's what this is really all about. And so, you know, the sick, disgusting behavior, not just of Jeffrey Epstein, as you've shown some of these videos with with faces blacked out and photos of faces blacked out.
00:11:53.840 This is not just about Epstein. And this is not an operation that was being done in isolation. This was an operation that had global proportions, and it touches every single fabric of our society, never mind the abuse of the children, which nobody's going to get past.
00:12:11.440 So so, you know, I know the president watches the show and certainly gets feedback from it.
00:12:16.880 You know, Mr. President, you just can't you can't go by this one.
00:12:21.100 You can't let this. And we're not going to let it go because it's about children.
00:12:24.420 It's not about, you know, a distraction or a or a hoax.
00:12:30.340 This is about children and anybody.
00:12:34.180 And I mean, I have a nonprofit that is out there fighting day and night for the protection and the defense of children.
00:12:41.260 So I can't by any means. And frankly, I have children and grandchildren. So and I have a bunch of nieces and nephews who also have children. Everybody's got kids out there to include the president. And this is not a lick on him personally, but it is a it is a it is an action item for him to to to basically take on to say, OK, folks, to his team, you know, what is it that we're going to do?
00:13:04.500 You know, Pam Bondi, you know, should not have said the other day when asked about essentially children, she responded with the, you know, the price of the stock exchange or how the stock exchange was doing.
00:13:17.800 That's that's these are, you know, apples in refrigerators. I mean, there's no comparison here, folks.
00:13:23.080 So anyway, that's where we're at. People can go look at my most recent posts on X, you know, at Jen Flynn and see exactly what I believe in, where we're at. And I'll stop here, Jack, on this note. You know, this elite world of espionage and influence is a big, big deal or for the elite community of the world, right?
00:13:43.020 global leaders, global politicians, business leaders, the corporate world. The world of
00:13:49.820 espionage is a very, very murky world. And people that get caught up in it because those intelligence
00:14:00.020 agencies that are part of this want to get control or influence over them. In many cases,
00:14:05.400 presidents aren't even aware about it. Presidents of the United States, they actually might be part
00:14:09.920 of it. And they have been, as we know, where, you know, the most egregious example, of course,
00:14:15.780 is the Clintons, there you go, is Bill Clinton himself. And, you know, and so, you know, I think
00:14:20.960 that we've got to, we've got to, you know, hold these people accountable. These people must be
00:14:26.120 held accountable for the actions that they took. And if the Department of Justice has other evidence,
00:14:32.180 which they obviously do, because I understand there's another 3 million pages that need to be,
00:14:37.280 you know, released. You know, this, and this release is not, this release is by law. It's by
00:14:44.140 law. The Congress is what got this thing released in the, in the, in the bills that were signed off
00:14:50.480 by, by President Trump, that Congress is, you know, members of Congress that said, hey, we need to get
00:14:55.400 this information released. This is a law now. It must be released, everything. So I understand
00:15:01.280 there's redactions for victims or cases that might be pending. Okay, I got all that, but we're not
00:15:07.180 moving past this. This is going to impact the 2026 midterm elections, Jack. And I think it
00:15:15.680 certainly will. Look, I've been very publicly disappointed that these files didn't come out
00:15:23.800 in the first couple of months of the administration coming back in. This is something that I think a
00:15:29.580 lot of people were waiting for. Of course, the phase one disclosure was botched. It was clearly
00:15:35.860 botched. It should not have been, you know, should have waited until they had their ducks in a row
00:15:39.100 and then done this disclosure from the very start. And unfortunately it's created a political
00:15:44.100 situation whereby in, um, so many, I think of the actual accomplishments of the administration are
00:15:50.820 being overshadowed by people who want to know what's going on. And it's, it's really as simple
00:15:56.500 as this because these acts were so depraved and so disgusting and so vile towards the, the youngest
00:16:05.640 of our society, the most helpless, the most helpless, the most innocent. And the idea that
00:16:13.840 it could happen at the highest levels of our government, especially when this movement has
00:16:18.820 always been about accountability, people are just not going to move on. People aren't just going to
00:16:24.580 move on and talk about, you know, the next, you know, the, oh, well, inflation's down. Good.
00:16:29.760 Great. Great. Awesome. Really love that. Self-deport, you know, legal aliens. Love that.
00:16:35.160 this is too big. Yeah. And you know, the other thing too, Jack, is you're bringing up something
00:16:39.740 that's really important. It's an issue of accountability. I mean, if we can't hold
00:16:44.240 people accountable for this behavior, why should we expect to see accountability for Russiagate
00:16:50.120 or J6 or any of the other treasonous activities that happened during the past, whatever, eight
00:16:57.660 years or so, not only to President Trump, but to this country and to the citizens of the United
00:17:04.800 States of America, if we aren't going to hold people accountable for this. And so my message
00:17:09.600 to the president and to his team is to basically say, hey, look, make this focus about going after
00:17:18.620 those who committed egregious crimes against children. Hold them accountable. That's all we
00:17:24.880 want to hear. And if there's evidence there, and there's clear evidence there, this business with
00:17:31.100 burying people out in New Mexico in an area where Epstein had a house out in New Mexico.
00:17:37.380 They talked about burying people. I mean, my God. So, you know, we've got to hold people
00:17:43.080 accountable. And if we're not going to hold them accountable and try to move past this Epstein
00:17:48.620 affair, then why should we expect to have anybody held accountable for Russiagate, which was
00:17:55.260 probably the single greatest crime against our country, certainly in our history, which is an
00:18:01.940 attempted overthrow of our country by a former president of the United States. And that's
00:18:10.080 according to Trump himself and according to the director of national intelligence herself,
00:18:14.660 where Obama committed treason along with a cohort of people in the intelligence community
00:18:22.300 at that time. And, you know, and we're kind of, we're all waiting to see what happens with that.
00:18:27.760 Well, if nothing's going to happen with Epstein, why should we expect anything to happen with
00:18:32.280 Russiagate? I mean, I just, this doesn't add up. And the American, read the room, read the room.
00:18:39.440 And Jack, I know you read the room because you stay on top of all kinds of issues.
00:18:43.620 Same with all the folks at Real America's Voice, you know, read the room. And the room right now
00:18:49.960 is very upset i couldn't agree more general flynn will be right back after the break human events
00:18:56.040 daily continues talk about influences these are influences and uh they're friends of mine jack
00:19:13.240 he's done a great job
00:19:14.440 We're back here. Human events daily. We're talking about the fallout of the Epstein files phase two disclosures.
00:19:24.760 We're on with General Flynn and Joe Flynn. So you were one of the top advisers, national security for President Trump's campaign in 2016.
00:19:32.820 You were his first ever national security adviser. You know, I put it a hypothetical, but maybe not even really because you're still in a position where you have a have a microphone and have standing.
00:19:42.840 If you were to be giving advice to the president right now on how to course correct on this or how to how to redirect fire, as as you'd say in the military, what would your advice be?
00:19:54.880 Yeah, I would advise him in a small group inside of the Oval Office that we have got to change the narrative and refocus and make this narrative about Epstein, about the Epstein affair, because it's much bigger than just that guy, and make it about we are going to do, we're going to, you know, all stops.
00:20:19.260 we're going to take care of children and wherever and whatever and however and whomever was part of
00:20:25.860 abusing children in any form or fashion, they are going to be held accountable and say it in no
00:20:33.320 uncertain terms with the authenticity that only President Trump has. And I think he needs to come
00:20:38.760 out and say it strongly. And that will satisfy a lot of people. And then have some sort of task
00:20:47.080 force, put together some sort of task force within the Department of Justice to do that.
00:20:51.980 I mean, even Todd Blanche, the deputy, you know, during his press conference, I was,
00:20:56.260 you know, I thought maybe he'll say something. But even Todd Blanche kind of kind of said,
00:21:01.040 man, I'm not really going to do much about it. I mean, you know, they we got investigations here
00:21:04.880 and there. But what we need to do is make this about children and not make this about,
00:21:09.600 you know, everything else that Trump is trying to achieve. We all know what he's trying to achieve.
00:21:15.680 And that litany of items that we all know about from closing the border to deportation, the economy, you know, some of the foreign policy stuff that he's accomplished, the peace around the world kind of thing.
00:21:29.300 I mean, all those kinds of things are that's all great.
00:21:31.500 But when it is overshadowed by the abuse of children.
00:21:34.380 So we've got to move the narrative quickly.
00:21:36.740 And I think the president of the United States can do that.
00:21:39.380 And that's what I would recommend.
00:21:41.740 Well, I couldn't agree more.
00:21:43.320 I love the idea of a task force.
00:21:45.220 I love the idea of coming out, giving a statement, no uncertain terms.
00:21:49.740 I think that's what the American people want.
00:21:51.300 And I think when it comes to a lot of those people like where I talk to in Pennsylvania, my friends and other folks who aren't really invested in politics.
00:22:00.540 These aren't the kind of people that are signing up to be a Republican and going out to volunteer and being these super voters, et cetera.
00:22:08.600 They're the type of people who look at the headlines and they came out for Trump in 2024.
00:22:12.660 People call them low prop voters. But what they are, I think, are just average Americans.
00:22:17.240 And they want to see this type of accountability because this story, the Epstein file story, it is everywhere.
00:22:24.320 It is absolutely. I hear people talking about it everywhere. I hear it being it's it goes viral all over every social media platform.
00:22:31.380 It's got to be dealt with and be dealt with decisively. Take the bull by the horns.
00:22:37.000 General Flynn, we've only got a couple of minutes left, but I do, if we can, switch focus a little bit, one military intel officer to another, and talk about this impending potential for escalation with Iran. 0.61
00:22:53.000 We just got word that the USS Gerald Ford carrier is going to be making its way to the Gulf.
00:22:58.840 So two carriers back in the Gulf, something that certainly reminds us of the war on terror,
00:23:04.400 certainly reminds us of those that scale of operations, that kind of up tempo.
00:23:09.340 We haven't really seen it since the the Bush Obama era.
00:23:13.480 What do you make of the war drums that are currently rattling for and drumming for Iran? 0.80
00:23:19.700 Yeah. So a couple of things.
00:23:21.460 First of all, there's two carrier strike groups that are out there, the Ford and the Lincoln.
00:23:26.960 And, you know, we show like you'll show a picture of you showing some of the battleships, some of the cruisers, you know, a picture of an aircraft carrier.
00:23:34.800 You know, there's a whole array of ships and men and women that are on those ships that are serving overseas.
00:23:42.400 But two carrier strike groups, that's a big complement of weaponry from the United States of America in the Persian Gulf.
00:23:49.800 on the adversary side, on the enemy side, from just a geography standpoint, Iran is a large,
00:23:59.760 large country with a large military. They have different types in their military too. They have
00:24:05.300 not only their sort of conventional forces in the Iranian army, the Iranian navy, but they also have
00:24:11.480 the Iranian guards' Quds Force, which is another type of capability, which is very powerful and
00:24:17.820 very loyal. And then there's a third component called the besiege. The besiege is another
00:24:22.120 element which actually takes care of internal problems. And the besiege is deeply involved in
00:24:27.740 these internal protests right now. One of the things that is happening to Iran, and this is
00:24:33.980 an advantage to us, Iran's economy is collapsing. And one of the threats, so to Mr. President, 0.51
00:24:45.000 Mr. President, our president, President Trump, you can't negotiate with this regime. You just
00:24:49.640 can't. Whatever they tell you is going to be a lie because they will lie right to your face. I don't
00:24:54.500 care whether you're talking to Khomeini yourself or not. They will lie directly to your face. So
00:25:00.740 don't believe what they're going to say because they will do just the opposite. And they're
00:25:05.440 threatening to close the Straits of Hormuz. So one of the things that I would say to the president
00:25:10.440 And let's oblige them, because closing the Straits of Hormuz does not affect the United
00:25:15.840 States of America.
00:25:17.440 Closing the Straits of Hormuz affects countries like China.
00:25:20.780 So you've got to be prepared out in the Pacific as well, because there's second and third
00:25:24.540 order consequences if you close the Straits of Hormuz, because the oil that comes through
00:25:29.560 the Straits of Hormuz gets, you know, a lot of it goes out to Asia, and most of it goes
00:25:34.600 out to China.
00:25:36.000 So you have some consequences that you've got to balance.
00:25:39.240 It's not just about Iran. But if the Iranian regime threatens to close the straits, oblige them, let them do it. 0.97
00:25:46.940 And see how see see how long that lasts, because it will shut their economy down almost overnight. 0.96
00:25:53.700 And to have a a weakened economy, as they do right now, that's part of why the protesters are protesters,
00:26:00.000 because people they're tired of, you know, eating stale bread.
00:26:03.840 And so the people in Iran are tired of not having their freedoms. They're tired of a weak economy that they know could be one of the strongest in the world with everything that that country has in terms of natural resources and natural talent in the people.
00:26:18.580 But I want people to understand that the the the country of Iran is not like Iraq or not like Afghanistan. It has completely different elements, completely different threats that we would that we would face. 0.97
00:26:31.960 And I think that's right. And in a with the IRGC military, I've always said, I think the IRGC, that's where operational control would go to if the mullahs ever fell in a regime collapse situation. 0.80
00:26:43.480 We need to understand the consequences and the implications of what that would be. General Flynn, where can people go to follow you?
00:26:49.720 They can go to GeneralFlynn.com. GeneralFlynn.com is my website. And or they can follow me on X at Jen Flynn, G-E-N at Jen Flynn.
00:26:59.040 Thanks. God bless her. Thanks for having me. Yep. 0.99
