Trump and Putin agree to a peace deal in Ukraine. Tulsi Gabbard wins confirmation as the next Director of National Intelligence. President Trump announces a new trade deal with other countries, including Canada, Mexico, and the EU.
00:00:30.000This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:39.620A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.300This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:50.240Tulsi Gabbard has enough votes to become the next director of national intelligence.
00:00:56.160A durable peace for Ukraine must include robust security guarantees to ensure that the war will not begin again.
00:01:04.260That said, the United States does not believe that NATO membership for Ukraine is a realistic outcome of a negotiated settlement.
00:01:15.520President Trump's team laying out plans for reciprocal tariffs.
00:01:18.500Under the plan, the U.S. would charge other countries the same amount to import products into the U.S.
00:01:22.780as they charge to import U.S. products into their countries.
00:01:25.680White House trade advisor Peter Navarro said they will start with the countries that the U.S. is running the biggest deficits with.
00:01:32.220If there's not a good feedback loop from the people to the government, and if you have rule of the bureaucrat, if the bureaucracy is in charge, then what meaning does democracy actually have?
00:01:45.720If the people cannot vote and have their will be decided by their elected representatives in the form of the president and the Senate and the House, then we don't live in a democracy.
00:02:05.760But they are appointees of the duly elected president.
00:02:08.720But your view is because you don't personally believe they know enough that the duly elected president who appointed a treasury secretary and who appoints special appointees like Elon Musk shouldn't be able to act as the president because you don't personally believe they know enough?
00:04:31.500So we have Trump's envoy in there for MAGA world peace, bringing everybody in, in position, making the phone calls, and we're making it happen.
00:04:40.840You know, this is only a month into the presidency, and we're already having peace deals, not only in Russia and Ukraine, but in Israel and Palestine as well.
00:05:02.880And, you know, I know we're going to go to break here in a moment, but Secretary of Treasury, Scott Besson, is being sent to Ukraine as well to meet with President Zelensky.
00:06:30.220Massive, massive news from President Trump.
00:06:33.360The hammer has been dropped across Europe with a three-pronged hit directed from the White House, but also with some hits being directed elsewhere.
00:06:45.660Today, Scott Besson arrived in Kiev for a meeting with Vladimir Zelensky.
00:06:52.060And his work with Zelensky was directed towards an economic partnership contingent on the end of the war.
00:06:59.620And, of course, we know that he was talking about those rare earth minerals as well as other resources in Ukraine that could be used for the U.S. economy and potentially as a way to backstop and backpay for some of the billions and billions of dollars of taxpayer money that had gone to fund the Ukrainian war effort under Joe Biden.
00:07:22.580And many of those loans never to be paid back.
00:07:25.580But then Secretary of Defense Pete Hankseth across Europe in Brussels giving a blistering speech saying that the war will end, but we will not return to the status quo where Ukraine would be pushed into NATO.
00:07:41.900That, in fact, the door would be closed for Ukraine into NATO, that there would not be a return to the 2014 borders, that instead a new peace, a lasting peace, and an understandable peace would take place on the European continent, upon which I am now your humble host reporting to you from.
00:08:05.900So we've seen a massive response, the ripples affected from the ministers of the defense across Brussels, and then all of this leading towards the Munich Security Conference this weekend, where Zelensky and J.D. Vance will have their meeting, their first ever sit down.
00:08:26.320This is tremendous, ladies and gentlemen, we are seeing real change, we are seeing an actual work from the president, huge action from President Trump directing his envoys across Europe to end the Ukrainian war.
00:08:42.780But then, after all of this took place, while Besson was meeting with Zelensky, President Trump himself elected to make a phone call and hold a phone call with Vladimir Putin directly in Russia.
00:08:59.000Trump then released on Truth Social a readout of his own call, saying that they had a long and productive conversation between himself and the president of Russia.
00:09:08.980They talked about the need to end the war. He talked about the sacrifices that Russia and America both made in World War II.
00:09:17.960He talked about the need for common sense and said that Vladimir Putin himself also agreed on the ideal of common sense, the campaign theme in many ways of Trump 2024.
00:09:30.300Perhaps most significantly, not only did President Trump work on a deal to say he wanted to end the war, but it also seems that he was aiming at renormalizing relations with Russia and the West,
00:09:45.280saying that he wanted to continue to work together with Russia in areas where it made sense and committed to not only inviting Putin to the United States,
00:09:57.360but also that President Trump himself would be making a state visit to Russia.
00:10:04.700Monumental news, something that in the first term, frankly, would have been unthinkable.
00:10:10.460But as we say, we are going to do things that have never been done.
00:10:15.760And this has been a refrain in Europe for a long time from a lot of people, a lot of skeptics looking at the Ukraine war, saying,
00:10:24.300how is it that the U.S. and Russia can simply end this war but not have to pick it up in the next couple of years,
00:10:32.180if there's a Democrat administration that gets back in, or if there is no normalization of peace between Russia and the West?
00:10:39.080President Trump is now looking to take it upon his shoulders and his alone with his envoys,
00:10:46.500J.D. Vance, Pete Hegseth, Scott Besson, your Vice President, Secretary of Defense, and Secretary of the Treasury,
00:10:53.720to work out an economic and security peace between not just Ukraine and Russia, but Russia and the entire West,
00:11:03.020with President Trump potentially working himself to make that trip to Russia, likely Moscow,
00:11:10.680the same way that he traveled to North Korea by himself, meeting with Kim Jong-un in the first administration.
00:11:18.060Folks, what we're seeing right now come out of Europe is nothing short of fantastic.
00:12:18.160We're not making any more, well, bias deals with Zelensky or anyone else affiliated with Ukraine.
00:12:24.080We don't want any more U.S. troops in Ukraine.
00:12:26.440And we're not relying on the USA to bring money to Ukraine because everything that we've sent over there has been put on the black market or just squandered.
00:12:37.560You know, they're not fighting with tanks and, like, these dated military weapons anymore.
00:12:44.140It's all about drone strikes these days and cyber warfare, cyber attacks.
00:12:49.680So what we want is obviously no boots on the ground, and that's what we're seeing.
00:12:56.400So we're not, yeah, we're not going to rely.
00:13:00.020I saw a thing on Tucker recently where he said that Ukrainians are, of all the weaponry we're sending over there,
00:13:07.540at least half of it from our budget is being put on the black market.
00:13:15.560It's being sold to the Mexican cartels and then being redistributed to the border where we're being fought by our own taxpayer-funded weaponry.
00:14:08.460And I think as well, I think, you know, I have yet to look into all the emails that we got about the rare earth elements to be in the deal from Ukraine to get some of our benefits back, some of our taxpayer-funded money back.
00:14:21.580But I'd like to point out that every piece of footage I've seen from Ukraine is usually drone strikes against soldiers, weary soldiers in the battlefield, like tragic footage of deaths that way.
00:14:39.680And also on the front end of it, just videos of men, young and old, being drafted into this war.
00:14:46.900And they know, because they have the internet, that this is just like attrition.
00:16:14.880So that's why they've moved on now to a constitutional crisis.
00:16:18.400Let's bring in Brian Glenn and Jack Posobiec as well.
00:16:21.860Brian Glenn just gone out of the White House press briefing room where he was able to ask a question today about Doge and that continued corruption and fraud that is uncovered.
00:16:32.640And it seems as if many Democrats and even the mainstream media want to turn a blind eye, Brian, to some of this.
00:16:37.880It's incredible the pushback that you see here, not only in the briefing room, but online as well.
00:16:46.880And I sat in that two hour subcommittee hearing right there where Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene chairs that committee.
00:16:55.060And to see House Democrats just absolutely play clown games in regards to finding out this fraud and really pushing back on it.
00:17:05.540And they spent the better of two hours basically turning it into an anti-Trump, anti-Elon Musk discrediting his ability to do anything that he's doing right now and really making fun of Republicans.
00:17:19.900And this is something, Michelle, as we know, President Trump ran on basically rooting out the fraud, the abuse, the corruption in our government.
00:17:29.960And to see Democrats stand so boldly against that makes me think maybe they're a part of the corruption, fraud and abuse in our government.
00:17:38.780But it's really amazing to see that, you know, but the American people are watching, Michelle.
00:17:45.220You know, I have to butt in real quick because I saw an analogy the other day and it basically said a boyfriend asked to go through his girlfriend's phone.
00:17:55.300And if she's hiding anything, why would she want to, you know, not allow him to have her phone?
00:19:21.980Like up until a couple of years ago, I would go myself to travel to like a different state or country and try and use your credit card somewhere.
00:19:31.900It doesn't allow you to use your credit card and says, well, you know, maybe this is improper purchase or something for anywhere from a couple hundred dollars.
00:19:40.260We're talking trillions of dollars here.
00:19:52.560And I tell you what, there's several victims here.
00:19:54.940One victim is the American taxpayers who are paying for this.
00:19:58.660But the second victim that perhaps no one's talking about are the people that were denied for whatever reason some of their benefits, the people who rightfully deserve to get these benefits.
00:20:10.380And it becomes a point where, you know, the people that are fraudulently, the fraudsters that are getting these payments are really taking away from people that should have gotten it.
00:20:24.300And that's what I think all Americans want to fix right now.
00:20:28.240And Michelle and Kevin, I'll ask you this.
00:20:30.320I want to know Democrats right now that are watching this show, and God bless you, and we appreciate you watching us, but Democrats at home, what do they feel about their fellow representatives blocking this stuff?
00:20:43.520I have got to imagine that they are not aligning with these House Democrats playing these games up on in that committee.
00:20:51.960I just can't imagine that they have stooped to that level.
00:21:52.600I'm Michelle Packus, filling in for the great Jack Pasovic, as he's on a special mission over in Europe with Pete Hegseth, doing great work over there.
00:22:00.760Let's get right into it, because seven in ten Americans believe that President Trump is keeping his promises.
00:22:34.620You know, I think one of the things that's so important for politicians is for folks to believe what they're saying and that they're keeping their campaign promises.
00:22:41.760So I think this gives you a pretty gosh darn good idea of what may be going on.
00:38:02.080You know, I will say that that does worry me, and I would love to get the numbers, and I should look that up here.
00:38:08.380But the amount of power and money that Big Pharma has, the amount of control that they have over these politicians is astronomical.
00:38:16.620And I feel like sometimes we do underestimate the power of these companies.
00:38:20.340And it's worth noting, especially as you get people like RFK Jr. in there to shake it up.
00:38:24.460Again, it goes back to the fact that these are not your standard picks.
00:38:28.560Donald Trump campaigned on the promise of reform.
00:38:31.220In fact, as Democrats continue to try and hit Elon Musk and Doge, he was on the campaign trail saying time and time again that Elon Musk is going to be a part of the administration.
00:38:39.940Elon Musk is going to come in and shake things up, go through this budget line by line.
00:39:24.640She's, you know, she was on camera saying she was supporting Bernie Sanders like how many years ago.
00:39:30.320And then, you know, now we have her voted in and, you know, we have Anna Luna as well.
00:39:36.680I wanted to mention she's, she just got nominated to a house oversight committee to release all these files about JFK, you know, MLK, RFK, the Epstein files, you know, the highlights.
00:39:51.140But what else is she going to uncover about, you know, the vaccine, you know, origins and the effectiveness of, I don't know.
00:40:02.740I mean, Anna Luna herself, she put forth legislation.
00:40:05.460She was one of the first in Florida to ban dyes in food.
00:40:09.200I can't recall if it was yellow 5 or red 40, whatever they are, but she was one of the first to successfully put that through.
00:40:18.060And, yeah, like how is that not a bipartisan issue?
00:41:19.900And I think there are a lot of deep state Democrats, Hollywood elites, people under the blanket that are very nervous for this to come out.
