00:00:42.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:13.000So what you're seeing right now, and we've been covering this on Human Events Daily quite a bit, is essentially a naval standoff between the Chinese Navy.
00:01:23.000You're seeing Taiwanese warships out there.
00:01:26.000The United States, USS Nimitz aircraft carrier battle group is just off the coast of Taiwan.
00:01:33.000Also, the Chinese aircraft carrier, the Shandong, is also off the coast of Taiwan at this very time.
00:01:40.000So you're seeing a huge, as well as the Koreans, the Japanese, their respective naval fleets are in the area.
00:01:47.000So this is a complete envelopment of Taiwan Island.
00:01:54.000Now, we will see, Charlie, we will see as to whether all of it comes on the heels of Speaker McCarthy meeting with President Tsai Ing-wen of Taiwan.
00:02:04.000And we'll see, of course, whether or not this comes to a fruition moment as to whether or not actual barrages take place or actual shots are fired.
00:02:14.000We've had some close, close calls between the U.S. and Taiwan before vis-Ã -vis the Taiwanese Strait that I've sailed through when I was in the Navy, but I've been to Taiwan many times, obviously, was spent two years in China.
00:02:28.000But this is probably the closest that I've ever seen the U.S. and China go to blows over Taiwan Island.
00:02:35.000So let me ask you, Jack, do you think a kinetic invasion of Taiwan is imminent?
00:02:43.000Because a lot of people are speculating that, but it's far from an easy military maneuver.
00:02:47.000It's a serious island with significant terrain issues.
00:02:52.000Do you think we're seeing the kind of overtures towards that, or is that largely bluster?
00:02:59.000No, Charlie, I don't think so right now because I think what you're going to see more along the lines of, keep in mind that Taiwan's unique, not unique, I mean, it's an island, right?
00:03:09.000So it's an island off the coast of China.
00:03:12.000Truman had this famous quote that if the U.S. ever wanted to invade China, it would essentially be a floating aircraft carrier for us, a physical aircraft carrier.
00:03:23.000China can't just march into there, but also on the back end, were there to be a kinetic war with Taiwan and the U.S. gets involved, we would also not be able to resupply Taiwan the way that we are able to with Ukraine.
00:03:36.000There's no physical border between Taiwan and, you know, of course, you know, Ukraine has the back door with Poland and Hungary.
00:03:45.000Essentially, Charlie, what you would see is not necessarily an amphibious assault, which of course would be very bloody.
00:03:52.000I mean, go look at the history of island hopping, the campaigns in World War II, some of the more the bloodiest days of the war in the Pacific took place there taking those islands, even the invasion of Guam, Iwo Jima, et cetera, et cetera.
00:04:04.000And so when you're looking at this, most effectively, you'd see a blockade by the Chinese military, People's Liberation Army Navy around Taiwan.
00:04:39.000We will not allow any supplies to come to the site.
00:04:42.000And Charlie, what they're going to do is they'll go around to every maritime shipping company in the world and say, your ships are not allowed in here, or they have to be, they will be interdicted by Chinese military vessels.
00:04:53.000Charlie, they're not going to be able to get the insurance to do that.
00:04:56.000Swiss Re is not going to be coming in with the reinsurance.
00:04:59.000Those captains, because the captains are all unionized now, they're not going to come out and say we want to run a Chinese military blockade.
00:05:06.000The chambers of commerce around the world, and you're already starting to see this with the World Economic Forum's whipping boy, Emmanuel Racron, over there in Beijing saying, you know, we really don't need this.
00:05:18.000We really need to make sure that we maintain.
00:05:20.000He says we shouldn't be dependent on America, which is amazing.
00:05:23.000Europe shouldn't be dependent on America.
00:05:26.000But he doesn't call out the point that he's making Europe dependent on China.
00:05:32.000And Charlie, I guess what I would have to say in response to Emmanuel Macron is that it shouldn't surprise us that the French were the first to surrender to China.
00:05:40.000So, I mean, the Taiwan issue seems correct.
00:05:45.000I mean, just from the CCP's perspective, they really think they're going to dominate Taiwan.
00:05:49.000I mean, they have a different culture.
00:05:55.000Well, so the endgame with Taiwan is similar to what you saw in Hong Kong, right?
00:05:59.000So Charlie, you could have said the exact same thing about Hong Kong 50 years ago, that Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macau never became part of the Chinese Communist Party or the People's Republic, I should say.
00:06:14.000But what they did with Hong Kong was a slow assimilation, which was gradual, gradual, gradual.
00:06:19.000And then sudden, right in December of 2019, just days before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, before all the lockdowns came in, that's when the freedom fighters were going out because it looked like the CCP was taking full control of Hong Kong.
00:06:34.000The protests were shut down by the lockdown procedures and history has already been written in that case.
00:06:40.000They're trying to do the exact same thing with Taiwan.
00:06:43.000They want to slowly envelop it, slowly assimilate it, isolate them from the world economy, isolate them from world diplomacy.
00:06:50.000This began back in the 1970s when they got the United States and the United Nations to switch diplomatic recognition from the Republic of China, which is the government of Taiwan, the official government of Taiwan, to the CCP so that their vote at the United Nations Security Council Went from Taiwan being in control of that vote to Beijing being in control of that vote.
00:07:10.000And they've continued to economically and diplomatically and even socially isolate Taiwan Island from the rest of the world in order to make them only able to do business with mainland China.
00:07:21.000They were able to do so in all but one industry, that, of course, being semiconductors and superconductors in order for them to fully take over that industry, which, Charlie, if the CCP were able to do that, right?
00:07:33.000And this is a huge difference between Taiwan and Ukraine.
00:07:36.000Again, for those people looking at the real politic of all of it, to say, look, if China gets access to those semiconductor prefab sites, and I know there's one even with a Taiwanese company that's looking to potentially put up sticks and open a prefab facility right there in Phoenix, Arizona, where you are, that this would give the CCP control over just about every device that's out there.
00:07:59.000It doesn't, at that point, it won't matter that if you've got TikTok or whatever app you've got downloaded on your phone, they've already got your phone from the actual hardware level.
00:08:09.000The spyware, the monitoring would be absolutely worldwide because they'd have the chipset inside your own hardware by the time that the device actually gets to you, whether it be a laptop or a phone or an F-150.
00:08:23.000They've all got chips in them these days.
00:08:28.000Explain the significance between Brazil and China no longer using the dollar for exchanges.
00:08:35.000Well, Charlie, what it shows is that the U.S. can't just walk around the world poking their finger in everybody's chest and saying this is how it's going to be now.
00:08:43.000No, other countries are saying they're sick of the United States.
00:08:47.000They're sick of this foreign policy, which has been largely outsourced to people like Victoria Newland, who should be arrested, not Donald Trump.
00:08:54.000And we have seen an absolute relative diminishment of the United States's power and influence compared to the relative rise of BRICS.
00:09:02.000Jack, what is the story with Daniel Perry?
00:09:05.000Who is Daniel Perry and why is this catching the media's attention?
00:09:10.000Well, Charlie, Daniel Perry is another one of the individuals who, like Kyle Rittenhouse, was involved in these riots of 2020, which engulfed the nation.
00:09:21.000Pretty much every single major city saw these.
00:09:24.000Now, while Kyle Rittenhouse was in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and was forced to use an AR-15 to defend himself against a violent mob, this was a situation where an individual, a Boogaloo boy, who was marching with the BLM rioters.
00:09:40.000Now, Boogaloo, they're an anti-government organization that are also pro-BLM.
00:09:45.000So the media will tell you that Boogaloos are all far right, but the pro-BLM SARF side and the complete anti-government, anti-police side doesn't necessarily make them fit one of the boxes just nicely.
00:09:57.000So this guy's marching with the BLM rioters.
00:10:00.000Daniel Perry is a serving U.S. sergeant in the U.S. Army, and his car is driving Uber on the side trying to make a few extra bucks.
00:10:09.000His car gets surrounded by these guys.
00:10:11.000And this individual, Garrett Foster, had been carrying a and actually slung around two-point sling of an AK-47, approaches Perry's car at the low ready.
00:10:25.000Perry claims that the barrel started to move up.
00:10:29.000He then withdrew his sidearm, fired five shots, and shot and killed Foster and then drove away in his car.
00:10:40.000Perry later claimed self-defense, spoke with police officers claiming self-defense, and actually said to them at one point, said to them one point, this phrase: I wasn't going to give him a chance to aim the rifle at me, which was later used to go to the jury by this Soros prosecutor.
00:10:58.000Great example, folks, of why you shouldn't talk to the police without a lawyer, because they used that statement in court to say that Foster wasn't presenting a threat, even though he marched up to him with a mob of people, surrounded his car, and had an AK-47 within inches of his face.
00:11:13.000I mean, I want to just reinforce that point that AK-47 pointed in his face with a mob around his car.
00:11:23.000Well, so what they're saying is because the AK-47 remained at the low ready, which means it was shouldered and pointed essentially lower at the car, that it didn't constitute an imminent threat, even though he was completely surrounded.
00:11:38.000And again, an AK-47 would only have just moments of, you'd need merely milliseconds to be able to bring that up and fire the tool.
00:11:49.000And is there any footage of it, like the Grittenhouse deal, or not really?
00:11:53.000There's summer of 2020, but the footage is not as, well, I wouldn't say good, but I wouldn't say it's not necessarily as clear as the Kyle Rittenhouse footage.
00:12:02.000That footage and that event was, it was a unique phenomenon that you have almost every single step of that incident of the Kyle Rittenhouse coverage done by these Daily Call reporters and independent reporters who are all there filming the whole thing.
00:12:19.000I later broke on Human Events Daily that the FBI actually had a surveillance plane up in the sky that was collecting footage that was withheld from Kyle Rittenhouse.
00:12:27.000But with that massive bevy of footage that we have there in this case, we only have one.
00:12:32.000I don't know if you guys have the clip, but they have a very short, grainy piece of footage that you're only able to see from kind of across the street.
00:12:42.000That's why we need more citizen journalists.
00:12:45.000And so, Jack, this is just gaining attention.
00:13:06.000However, Governor Abbott has come in immediately, come hard swinging, saying he will issue a pardon the minute the recommendation is placed on his desk.
00:13:16.000Now, Texas, along with the other southern states, don't exactly have this direct unilateral ability for the governor to be able to issue a pardon the way you would see at the presidential level or some other states.
00:13:29.000They have essentially a pardon board that has to review the cases and then present their recommendations to the governor.
00:13:44.000Right, the board, and I'd have to get the exact requirements of how you get on the board.
00:13:48.000I imagine the governor or lieutenant governor play a huge role in that, the way they do in many states.
00:13:52.000I believe the lieutenant governor is on the board.
00:13:54.000And then you see this across the country.
00:13:56.000I'm more familiar with Pennsylvania, where the lieutenant governor essentially leads that board.
00:14:00.000And so what Gabbitt has said, though, is that he wants this to be expedited.
00:14:06.000He wants Ken Paxton, the attorney general, to be involved.
00:14:09.000They've all been very vocal on social media.
00:14:11.000And the governor has said that immediately when that hits his desk, he will be issuing a pardon.
00:14:16.000Because essentially, Charlie, the question here for us, beyond the specific facts of the case, which we have and which we're going over in court many times, we also have to look at the broader picture.
00:14:28.000This is a left-wing mob that was allowed to operate.
00:14:31.000And then a Soros DA comes in and tries to put him in prison.
00:16:13.000You got to go to goodranchers.com, get real meat, feed it to your kids.
00:16:18.000It's the most healthy thing you could do.
00:16:19.000Goodranchers.com, American Meat Delivered, GoodRanchers.com.
00:16:27.000The biggest story in the nation over the weekend was Riley Gaines speaking at a turning point USA chapter event at San Francisco State University.
00:16:36.000She was terrorized by trans activists, and she's here right now to share her story and what she has planned next.
00:17:20.000They were flickering the lights and they rushed me.
00:17:23.000I was physically and verbally assaulted, to which I was rushed out of the room and I couldn't exit the building because they were coming from every direction.
00:17:33.000And so I was barricaded in a separate classroom building for three hours after this.
00:17:39.000So Riley, were these students or were these outside agitators or do you not know?
00:17:44.000I believe for the most part they were students.
00:18:00.000For they were trying to negotiate with the dean of students.
00:18:04.000They were saying that if I am getting paid to be there from the school, which I wasn't getting paid to be there from the school anyways, but if I was getting paid to be there, then it's only fair that they get paid.
00:18:15.000If I wanted to make it to home safely, it's only fair that I pay them money.
00:18:25.000I mean, the police, they were protecting you in this room for multiple hours.
00:18:29.000I'm sure after 10, 15, 20 minutes, you probably struck up a conversation with them.
00:18:35.000I know that you're thankful that you didn't get hurt and they were there, but at some point, did you be like, yo, can you just like get some handcuffs and solve this?
00:18:58.000And they said, we don't want to assert any kind of force.
00:19:01.000Clearly, it was because they didn't want to be seen as anything other than an ally to that community because they knew what it meant for them.
00:19:08.000They knew it put their job at risk if they were to be accused of any of these things.
00:19:13.000And so they would rather not do their job than be seen as, again, anything other than an ally.
00:19:19.000They didn't want to be racist or transphobic or any of these other things.
00:19:23.000So just to make sure I understand correctly that while they are demanding money, the police officers were intimidated by these.
00:19:31.000Is that fair to say the police officers were intimidated by the people who assaulted you?
00:19:43.000I'm always grateful for law enforcement, of course, but I do believe these campus police did not accurately and effectively do their job.
00:19:51.000It wasn't until three hours later when the city of San Francisco police stepped in, I was able to safely evacuate the building, which was still surrounded by protesters and people yelling terrible, obscene things at both myself and the officers.
00:20:06.000But I thank the city of San Francisco police for getting me out safely.
00:20:09.000Yeah, and that's an important distinction.
00:20:11.000But the people that were basically in the hostage situation with you, they were police officers or the actual campus police officers?
00:20:23.000But again, they were supposed to go over an exit plan with me if something like this were to happen, to which they never showed up to alert me.
00:20:31.000The officer who helped me escape the first classroom building where I was ambushed, she was in nothing that indicated she was an officer, no clothing that indicated such.
00:20:42.000And so I didn't truthfully trust that she was an officer.
00:20:45.000And so I didn't want to follow her because I didn't believe her.
00:20:48.000So it was just a whole slew of things that they could have done better to get me out of that environment safely that they did not do.
00:22:23.000It's a Thursday night before Good Friday.
00:22:25.000I don't think these people exactly observe Easter, but that's a separate issue.
00:22:28.000You know, in downtown San Francisco, you're going to ask you about your speech in a second, but they're willing to basically dedicate four or five hours.
00:22:36.000If you count the prep time, sit through your speech, and then stand outside where you are for three hours.
00:22:56.000What did you say that made them so full of rage and fury and anger that made them want to kidnap you?
00:23:05.000Of course, what has thrusted me into this position of being some sort of a public figure is taking a public stance and acknowledging that men and women are different in ways that give males advantages when competing in something that requires sheer athleticism or strength.
00:23:38.000I highlight, of course, our national championships.
00:23:40.000I highlight what that locker room piece looked like.
00:23:43.000I highlighted the silencing that other female athletes are dealing with, coaches, parents, what that looks like, and why denying objective truth is harmful, to which I was met with, again, violence.
00:24:43.000It only assures me that I'm doing the right thing.
00:24:46.000Even right now, I'm here in Louisville, where, of course, there was a tragic shooting this morning.
00:24:50.000But typically when these kind of events happen, it draws out people who want to be destructive in different ways.
00:24:58.000And so I'm here doing some different events to which I was just five minutes ago met with protesters who had to be escorted because they were trying to hurt me.
00:25:27.000You're emboldened and you have more conviction than ever.
00:25:30.000I hope all of you in the audience draw some inspiration from this because Riley is now going to metaphorically punch back twice as hard, even though she got punched.
00:25:39.000And she said, listen, I'm willing to take a hit from Mike Tyson.
00:25:44.000By the way, you might have to one day.
00:25:45.000Mike Tyson in a dress might show up to you, some tranny activist that is able to be a man.
00:25:50.000I'm curious, though, the people that were assaulting you and doing this, were these men posing as women or women posing as men, or just wasn't clear.
00:26:09.000It was truthfully, it's obviously extremely confusing when all of the different aspects of what goes into this gender spectrum that people are looking to.
00:26:20.000So there was both men dressed as women and women dressed as men claiming that identity.
00:26:27.000And there was hundreds, hundreds of people holding me hostage.
00:27:28.000Jamila Moore, Vice President of Student Affairs of Enrollment, apologizes that you were allowed on campus, calls the students that were terrorists towards you brave.
00:27:40.000And I know you have another campus event coming up this week.
00:27:44.000I hope it remains peaceful and we're going to have a good security presence there to help you out because the campus police can't be trusted.
00:27:58.000And you know by now that we're helping save babies with our friends at Preborn.
00:28:03.000With Mother's Day coming up in less than a month, can there be a better time than right now to stand for life?
00:28:08.000When you introduce a girl to her baby by providing an ultrasound, more than 85% of the time she will choose life.
00:28:14.000You're giving her access to a two-year mentorship program and the chance to receive maternity clothes, baby clothes, diapers, parenting classes, but perhaps most importantly, someone to walk alongside her and be a friend during this most crucial time of her life.
00:28:27.000You see, $140 gives five mothers a free ultrasound and saves babies.
00:28:31.000$200 can save 10 babies, and just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day.
00:28:37.000And $15,000 gift, well, that will provide an ultrasound machine that will save lives for years to come.
00:28:43.000Whether you want to save one baby or five or hundreds, join me in supporting Pre-Born.
00:28:47.000I financially support them, and you should too.
00:29:56.000It's a very strange equation, isn't it?
00:29:59.000Tolerate me, and I'm going to force you to tolerate me.
00:30:04.000That's the opposite of voluntary tolerance, isn't it?
00:30:09.000No, there is a very disturbing, now well-documented decline in the West.
00:30:13.000And we're about to show you something from the Netherlands that you won't believe.
00:30:18.000I want to get this Dutch TV from the Netherlands, from Holland, of what's happening there where they're showing naked trannies to kids on television.
00:30:29.000Again, when you remove Christianity as the anchor of the West, something really evil and dystopian, broken, and damaging will replace it.
00:30:38.000And these secular views are replacing it.
00:30:41.000And, you know, it's really interesting.
00:30:43.000I've been giving this speech across the country, and even secular conservatives who maybe don't believe in Christianity and they're not convinced on that.
00:30:53.000I think there is a growing movement that at least Christianity created a freer society.
00:31:05.000Okay, so when you remove Christianity and you remove the bedrock of the Bible in society, what do you get in place of that?
00:31:15.000Well, in the Netherlands, they are showing on television naked trans people in front of kids.
00:31:49.000Yeah, that don't speak the native tongue.
00:31:52.000Let me just tell you kind of what that is.
00:31:54.000So, effectively, that is what was being shown on TV is a group of trans people with no clothes on in front of 10 and 12 year olds with a host, kind of a television host, celebrating it.
00:32:10.000And the kids get to look at the naked trans people and ask questions about their top and bottom surgeries.
00:32:17.000This is what is passing for art in the Netherlands with cut lines all over their chests.
00:32:34.000I mean, if it's not on television already, I mean, effectively already is.
00:32:38.000You can see that stuff all over social media.
00:32:43.000When you don't have a true north, when you do not have what the Greeks used to call a telos or a teleological purpose, where are you heading?
00:32:52.000You see, how do you know a line is crooked if you do not have a straight line to compare it to, as C.S. Lewis would famously say?
00:34:19.000So I kept hearing about this thing called March Madness, and I thought we were all just having a hectic month, but it turns out it has something to do with sports.
00:34:29.000This month I celebrated my day 365 of womanhood and Bud Light sent me possibly the best gift ever, a can with my face on it.
