A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran. This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec. Christ is...

Listen to this young girl fight for her life, fight for her breath, trying to survive, terrified. You need to listen to this tape.

And that's what we want to do is protect your community.

Matt Gaetz is stepping down from his nomination to Attorney General of the United States. Long Island leaders say they are hopeful that President-elect Trump's pick for EPA head, former Congressman Lee Zeldin, will in fact protect the environment. What Donald Trump has said all along, that he wants to undo Biden's signature environmental law.

the inflation reduction act which plowed hundreds of billions of dollars into this green energy transition you know what's in the air wampy trumpism we lost the election wait a minute we lost the election we're miserable half of this country is miserable and let's just tell the truth we hate that he won we hate it

I'm crazy right now. Russia has just updated its nuclear doctrine Wednesday of this week, saying that any attack on Russia by a non-nuclear state with the support of a nuclear country and the support of a larger military alliance will be seen as a joint attack.

The Ukrainian Air Force saying Russia has fired an intercontinental ballistic missile in the central eastern city of Dnipro. But this morning, Western officials said that the weapon was a ballistic missile, but not an ICBM. It's clear this is a new weapon, and it's clear that Russia has wanted to see how that would make Ukrainians and the West feel.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily. We are live here on the program back in Washington, D.C. Today is November 21st, 2024, Anno Domini. Let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question. This is a question from MAGA out there, and I know there's a lot of new people in the movement, so I got a question for you. Do you think this movement takes days off?

Do you think that you get to sit there and wait for the returns to come in and kick back and say, oh, CNN says we're up and Fox says we're up and we win Pennsylvania and everything's going to be great. It's all going to be good now. Everything's done. Our enemies are just going to lie over and we've defeated everyone. And it's all that. Did you really do? Is there anyone out there within the sound of my voice that actually believes that?

Like, have you been paying attention? Because some of you are around here. And for some of you, it's your first day. And so I want to address those people who weren't here in the stolen election of 2020. I want to address the people who weren't here for Access Hollywood weekend in 2016. I want to address the people that weren't here for Russiagate weekend.

This movement has been through everything. This movement has been through hell and back since Donald Trump came down that escalator. Did you think it was going to be easy? Did you think that we were only up against Democrats? Oh, John Thune, Senate Majority Leader, doing a great job over there, John. Really fantastic job. Knew we could count on you.

to deliver. And so when Trump's first pick for AG, Matt Gaetz, isn't able to generate enough support from votes in the Senate, the Senate Republican caucus, the America first Republican caucus, and suddenly you sit back and you say, oh, oh, I see. Okay. That's how it's going to be. That's how it's going to be. Okay. Okay. I love it.

Because this is a movement that does not take days off. MAGA keeps fighting. MAGA holds the line.

Remember, remember what we said on the 5th of November. Remember, remember the 5th of November. Get in line, hold the line. Get in line, hold the line. So you better be holding the line right now. And remember I said to you the other day to get your face up real close to the screen. And I want you to do the exact same thing in the very next segment because a special guest is about to be joining us.

But ladies and gentlemen, this movement does not take any days off. This movement goes from battle to battle to battle. And we will continue to march down the war field until America is returned to its rightful owners, the American people. It's as simple as that.

And don't tell me that it's going to be easy. Don't tell me that we're going to be able to march right across the beach. The enemy always gets a vote. And everybody's got a plan until you get punched in the face. Let me tell you something. You know what my plan is? I'm going to get back up and I'm going to do some punching of my own. Stay tuned. You know, they talk about influencers. These are influencers. And they're friends of mine. Jack Posobiec. Where's Jack? Jack Posobiec.

He's got a great job. All right, Jack Posobiec back live here. Human Events Daily. We're in Washington, D.C. Oh, and the knives are out everywhere. Don't ever try to catch a falling knife, ladies and gentlemen.

Well, folks, we're entering a new era in American history. People feel confident and optimistic, but in my opinion, we can't let our guard down. We can't take anything for granted.

It comes with delicious foods like creamy stroganoff, honey wheat bread, and chili mac.

It's all about getting ready, folks. So go to MyPatriotSupply.com now to order your three-month emergency food kit from My Patriot Supply. That's MyPatriotSupply.com to order your three-month emergency food kit from My Patriot Supply right now.

And so what are we talking about My Patriots of Life for? Well, folks, while you're paying attention to all of the nonsense of Washington, D.C., there's someone else that we should all be paying attention to right now. And he's the president of Russia, the leader and the ruler of the largest nuclear arsenal on the face of the planet.

And Joe Biden, or someone in the Biden administration, we should actually say probably Jake Sullivan, who has trouble finding Russia on a map, he just found out, by the way, that the Soviet Union collapsed. He only found that out yesterday, though. They've authorized long-range U.S. Atacombs missiles into Russia. Talked about this yesterday. Roger talked about it yesterday when he was here. Thank you again for that. And, folks, Putin just responded. I want to play...

Play the video, guys. Don't play Putin's speech real quick, but I want you to play that clip of the new ballistic missile striking in Kiev. Or excuse me, not Kiev, in Dnepro. Look at this. This is not just an attack on Ukraine.

This is a message. This is a message being sent to the U.S. This is power. They are trying to block the peace deal before it even gets out. They're trying to kill it in the crib the same way, the same way the deep state is trying to kill in the crib the new populist movement. Folks, I'm told that we have the host of The War Room, Stephen K. Bannon, now joining us on the phone. Steve, do we have you? Right here, sir. How you doing?

All right. Well, all right, Steve. So people want to know what's going on with this Matt Gaetz situation. Was this the Senate? Was this John Thune? Was this the establishment blocking it? What's going on? What's the latest? You know, I think clearly yesterday didn't go very well. You know, he was up on Capitol Hill with J.D. I think they got feedback. Now, look, I would have gutted it out and hunkered down and punched through this thing.

But I think they feel that people are playing games up there, and there's maybe more disclosures that came out of this report. The report hasn't been leaked yet, but I think there's threats of it. And to me, since he was never charged with a crime, and Merrick Garland, as corrupt as Merrick Garland is, didn't go after him, you've got to power through this. But...

decisions were made. I think he came after he and JD, you know, spent the day up there and they regrouped last night. And I think they talked to the president this morning and made a decision and think the president wants to move on. So look, it's something I don't agree with, but hey, I'm just one voice in the wilderness. Well, Steve, I started the program here and I sent you the message as well. I said MAGA doesn't take days off. What does that mean?

I mean, it's 24-7. You've got to pound through this. I mean, we've got this interregnum now. We've got 59 days.

Till game day. And they're trying to, whether it's the judges in the Senate or whether it's the impoundment situation, whether it's the escalation of the Ukraine war, whether you just caught them, you know, Chris Ray and Mayorkas wouldn't even come and testify. I just spent four months in a fricking federal prison because of what they did today. They, they, they're called up there. And the reason they avoided the Senate and walked away, cause they know they got the sources come to the house. I think in the first week of December,

So in every aspect, the Biden regime is making this almost impossible for Trump to relieve the watch. That's, I think, the concern we have here is that this thing is metastasizing. And I've warned people about this, and you've got to hunker down. So for someone like Gates, who was in charge of the crime, I would have powered through this and said, hey, it's all or none, and we're not letting anybody go. But they, you know, greater minds than mine made the decision, and we are where we are.

Well, fair enough. So that being said, if we are where we are now, what is the future then for the AG pick? We know that you've weighed in very heavily for Matt. I think that Matt Gaetz would be a fantastic AG. He's withdrawn himself. That's obviously his right to do. And so MAGA's got to step back, and we certainly need someone. Look, we need someone in this mold. We need someone who's going to take the fight to them. I don't need some establishment Bill Barr-type lawyer coming in here.

Look, this came down to you had a couple of establishment guys that had run big law firms that I think President Trump had confidence in. None of those guys were the fire breathers. You had Bob Jiffra and Jay Clayton who were publicly announced. They're both terrific lawyers. Both have run Sullivan and Cromwell. The president knows them very well. They are one aspect and kind of one line of work. Then you had the state AGs.

led by Andrew Bailey, and Bailey is still, you know, obviously shortlisted for potentially the FBI director. And then I think you've got to look, I think there's a couple other, whatever you say, kind of fighters. No one's in the class of Matt Gaetz. I mean, he's uniquely qualified to do this. And we just have to understand, you know, you're not going to get Gaetz. That doesn't mean Gaetz can't be named as a special prosecutor on something. Gaetz can have some role going forward. So people shouldn't despair totally.

But I think maybe you've got to look at the House and maybe look at the Senate. You know, some people that are out there in private practice, you've got to get a fighter.

And there's a couple of fighters out there. No one at the level of Gates. No one can live with the punch of Gates. No one has the strategic vision of Gates. But, you know, we are where we are. I think this person really ought to be not just vetted, but I think more importantly, they've got to be in sync with the president and where he wants to go with the Department of Justice and particularly main justice. So the good news is if you look at the team that's come around Gates, you

It's pretty fantastic. And they're filling that team out with other announcements, OPR, OLC, others. So the team over there is the best team we've ever had, but you need a leader. And I think the bottom line is we have to find somebody that I think directionally has the same direction of strategic direction at Gates. And let's say, hopefully, you have to fight them.

You know, there's an interesting I saw Jake Sherman had a post up pointing out that and I expect me perhaps Speaker Johnson would have to be the one who rules on this. But Gates resigned from the current Congress, but he was also just elected to the next Congress. So the question I think for a lot of on a lot of folks minds is, is he still entitled to the seat that the voters of his district just elected him for?

I think he's announced. I might be wrong, but I think he announced he's not going to take the oath on the 3rd. I think he answered that. I might be one of your production guys with a pull-up, but I believe he put out a tweet that said that he has no intention of taking the oath on the 3rd. And so that seat is open, and this special election will go forward, my belief is. I think he announced he's not going to take it, so we're going to go in a couple light right out of the box.

I think that's just a reality people are going to have to, you know, have to, you know, have to acquiesce to.

Well, that's right. Well, Steve, when when we're looking at all of this, what what does this tell us then for folks like an RFK or folks like a Tulsi? Because I got a lot of people texting me now, a lot of people in the chat saying, well, what's what's going on? Is this mean we're not getting the dream team? Does this mean the Republican Senate are going to be pushing back on everybody? Do you have the same sense for either of those picks or Pete Hegseth as well, for that matter?

This was, I think, one of the things they tried to get Gates with is that, hey, we're going to drag this out. You know, he didn't get – he got a good reception from certain people, but I think he was told in no uncertain terms yesterday, and I think J.D. was also vice president, the vice president, that, you know, there were a number of hard no's, and that hard no's could increase.

And my belief is they told him, hey, we're going to stretch this thing out because we're going to drive the agenda here. We're going to stretch this out into February, maybe even March. And, you know, if you're called out from the herd like that, how are you going to survive? I strongly have said this time and again.

the best way to win here is to continue to flood the zone. That these nominees have to go and the Senate has to be prepared to take them kind of in a joint... Now, it's obviously different committees, but in joint hearings that start the 4th or 5th. And, Tommy, Senator Tuberville was just in studio yesterday and concurred that that's one of the things they're working on. I think more than ever, you've got to bundle this first batch of the four horsemen of the deep state apocalypse together

have got to go in together to different committees, but simultaneously. And we've got to push those through. Because these are not going to be tough. Look, you know, Mitch McConnell notched a win today. We've just got to understand that. One week into this, he notched a win. And you can't look at it any other way. This is Mitch McConnell's rearguard action against the MAGA movement, against President Trump. They notched it. However we want to color it, for whatever reason, they notched a win. And they smell blood in the water.

So now we got to talk about no days off. We got to hunker down like we've never hunkered down before. That's as simple as that, Steve. Steve, you're going to be up at 5 p.m. Eastern. Yes, sir. And I may even have a Jack Posobiec on the show. Five to seven live tonight.

Oh, OK. Five to five to seven live tonight. Look, and we got to we got to also get break in. I know there's been a lot of breaking news, but Steve, these lies about the ICBM. It was not an ICBM that struck Ukraine. They're trying to kill the peace before it is even born. They are trying to box Trump in on the Ukraine-Russia war. It's as simple as that. And Putin, he threw down over there. He absolutely threw down with that statement. So we've got to break that all down and explain that we are steering into dangerous waters. But you know what?

This movement likes a fight. So stay tuned, folks. Steve will be up at 5 p.m. Apparently he just booked me. So we'll be up there. We'll be talking about that. Human Events Daily continues. I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.

All right, Jack Posobiec, we are back live. Washington, D.C. is where it's all happening, folks. And look, Donald J. Trump, he is the president-elect.

Daniel Turner from Power the Future is joining us now. Daniel, I mean, my goodness, so much news just in the last couple of minutes. You and I were chatting a little bit during the break. We've got Russia launching ballistic missiles into Ukraine, hypersonic glide vehicle, Putin basically saying, look, if the West wants a war, I'll give you one. And then we've got Matt Gaetz, the AG, President Trump attempting to

really stormed the beaches in Washington, D.C. He withdrawing his nomination earlier. But at the same time, we do have a new Congress coming in. So I would say the floor is yours. I mean, you can take this in any direction you want. But but the overall the overall theme that I would say is we are living through.

a realignment in politics and in a realignment in politics look you're gonna break a few eggs okay there's gonna be a few broken eggs not everything is gonna go our way but that doesn't mean that the overall trajectory of things and you've been in DC or you were previously before you're recovering DC operative and you know that that's not what this town wants

Yeah, exactly. And, you know, we have seen so much happen in the last couple of weeks. The Biden-Trump debate was not yet four months ago.

Oh, and just think about that. It hasn't even been four months and we had that debate, the Kamala coronation, the assassination attempts, the election, the announcement of the Trump cabinets. It's been a whirlwind of information in the last couple of weeks, kind of hard even for the human mind to process it. But when it comes to Matt Gaetz, there's a parallel that I would want to make with the energy space.

DC does not want upset. They don't want to be disrupted. They don't want a change in status quo. And the energy space is going to be the same. If you remember, Kamala bragged in her debate against President Trump that they've spent a trillion dollars on the green agenda. Those folks are not going to give up that trillion dollars very easily. They're going to fight tooth and nail

for that green money. And so, you know, the picks that President Trump made for energy and interior and EPA, and I'm thrilled with them, but they're going to have a real fight on their hand because just as the FBI and the DOJ don't want reform, the green movement does not want to be put back in its place. So the hard work is really just beginning.

Well, and actually the EPA, that's that's one that we haven't really gotten into too much. Lee Zeldin, though, by the way, fantastic congressman did the yeoman's work there in New York state in 2022. What do you think his role would be over at the EPA? Because let me tell him that guy is a fighter. You know, Matt Gaetz, by the way, has taken all the fire for all of all of Trump's other appointees like Zeldin who are going to just absolutely get there and go to town.

Yeah. Well, the interesting thing about when he was in Congress was he represented New York One, which is the end of Long Island. And there is a good mix of, yes, multimillion dollar homes, but there's a lot of agriculture and there are lobster fishermen and regular fishermen and offshore wind projects and transatlantic pipelines. And so I think what Lee Zeldin will bring to the EPA is what he did in Congress.

which is helping these entities to coexist. That is the job of the EPA. It is not a proactive policymaking institution. It has been weaponized under the Biden administration and the Obama administration to do exactly that, but that's not the EPA's role, and that's why we've created a lot of chaos, because what the Biden administration was unable to get through legislation, they just did through the EPA. Just look at the fact a couple days ago they announced

New rules on methane. And the current EPA administrator, Michael Regan, said, well, this is actually coming out of the Inflation Reduction Act. But it took you two years, right? It took you losing the White House and the Senate to roll out something. So, and also, even if that were true, Jack...

How bad can methane really be if it took them two years to roll out these rules, right? Like how serious is climate change if they're like, well, we have to wait a couple of years to actually get the legislation or the regulation implemented. So the EPA has been weaponized to push a proactive agenda. That's not its purpose. And Lee Zeldin will be great at putting the EPA back in its place, hopefully until the point that it's just completely dismantled and all of that power given back to the states where it belongs.

- And I love this idea. And that's certainly something that Linda McMahon said the same thing for Department of Education, this idea that just put it back with the state. I mean, think about it, right? So I come from the state of Pennsylvania. Fracking is a huge issue there. But up in Alaska, they do things differently. In states like California and states like New York, they do things differently. Now, California, New York, I'm not saying I want their policies to come on me, but that's kind of the point. Because if we end up with these liberal politicians

taking over the EPA with these federal mandates, then guess what? You're going to get the policies of New York and California governing those of us in Pennsylvania. We got Josh Shapiro, who isn't doing much better to begin with. But talk to me a little bit about how that looks out and how that shakes out for the energy states.

- Yeah, it's a great point. And getting back in an agenda of energy robust production and cooperation with government will really help our economy take off. Right now we've seen the Biden administration brag about the fact that they've had the fewest land leases since World War II, no land leases and offshore, cutting off whole parts of the state of Alaska from oil and gas development. And that's why oil prices are stubbornly high.

You know, Kamala Harris tried to take credit for the fact that production is at record highs, and it is. But the oil and gas we're producing today was drilled seven years ago, right? They didn't drill this oil. This didn't happen on their account. It happened during their watch, kind of the way the fracking revolution happened while Obama happened to be president. But he didn't have any policies that contributed to it.

And I think President Trump really understood that. He doesn't need a proactive energy agenda. He just needs to let the industry do what it does best. And that's the joys of freedom. If the industry is able to operate freely, it will do its job, produce more for less in the most...

environmentally friendly way for the greatest number of people at the lowest price point. It's what happened in 2017, 18, 19 pre-COVID. And so there's a lot to look forward to. It's going to take a little time and that's where I want the American people to

still stiffen their resolve, right? He'll get inaugurated and gas is not going to drop to $2 in a couple of weeks because this industry takes a little while to come online. And we've had four years of a lot of damage that needs to be on. That's four years of putting us in a ditch. And before we can even start to grow, we got to get ourselves out of the ditch. And that's going to take a lot of work and a lot of time.

Well, something that I want to get on because we're talking about Alaska, Nick Begich, who this was the piece that came in in last night, or I guess I saw it, you know, Alaska time last time, maybe it's this morning for them. But are we seeing did he just win by like under three percent percentage points? What just happened up there?

It's remarkable. And you know what? You and your show and your audience deserve some of the credit here because Nick was very much the underdog. And I was on this show in February and talked about Nick. And I even just retweeted the video. And I talked about how he's a politician very much in the mold of Vivek Ramaswamy, like

loves Alaska and he should be considered. And people saw that interview and people started reaching out. Nick said how his numbers started to explode and people started donating money. Vivek himself reached out and helped the campaign. And here we are 10 months later and Alaska has elected a great,

conservative, pro-America, pro-Donald Trump, unabashedly pro-Alaskan energy, more so than the rest of the federal delegation. Remarkable. And it's not because of you or because of me or because of... But...

getting his name into the media helped. It helped a lot. And so it's great to know that we can pull our candidates across the line and build this network of concerned Americans who want good people elected. And so it's just a great mix of a friend. So I make no bones about it. And it's great to see he'll be in Congress. And Alaska should be thrilled to have someone who deeply loves and respects the state and will fight for the state representing them in Congress. It's just awesome.

No, we love it when our friends do well. And I'm in a couple of situations myself. I'm trying to pull up the actual delta of how much he wanted. It's like less than a percent. It's like less than a percent. And it came in. It was going back and forth. Now, unfortunately, and he was up against what, like 12 people in that race, right? Yeah.

Yeah, and Alaska has that awful ranked choice voting system, which they tried to repeal. It lost by literally just a couple hundred votes. And that one lost. I know, and that's tragic because ranked choice voting is, I think it's deeply unconstitutional. I think it's very corrupt. They have it in my home state of New York now. Ranked choice voting is terrible. It invites...

machinations, that it invites intrigue, it invites corruption. It's a terrible, terrible system. And so I hope Alaskans continue to fight to get it repealed because it just poisons the electoral system.

Well, that's right. And it pulls things away from the actual votes of the people because it really helps out people who've got money. It helps out people who are tied to special interests and all of this. But, Daniel, we've just got about one minute left for you. What is the next what is the one big thing you're looking forward to from the next administration? And please tell people where they can go to follow you.

Yeah, well, thank you. Powerofthefuture.com or shoot me an email, Daniel at powerofthefuture.com. I think the most essential thing is the equivalent of H.R. 1, which was passed by the House in 2023 after they won the majority. Of course, Chuck Schumer stopped it in the Senate and it was never going to get signed by Biden. But that same piece of legislation, there are taxes on oil and gas, the natural gas tax that have to be repealed because it's punishing the American people. That's absolutely essential.

It's as simple as that, folks. We're going to be cutting taxes and unleashing American energy dominance. More next human events continues. Jack, where is Jack? Where is Jack? Where is he?

By the way, we just got an email in from Cassandra at 1776 at humanevents.com. I want to go through this real quick. Hi, Jack. Do you think Governor DeSantis should appoint Matt Gaetz as senator now that he withdrew his name for attorney general? Well, should he? Yes, obviously. Will he, I think, is the bigger question. Actually, this is... So...

Hold on. We weren't planning on doing this, but yeah, we're going to call an audible here. Kenny Cody, the columnist at humanevents.com is joining us. Kenny, you wrote extensively about Ron DeSantis during the primary, during last year. Look, everybody knows what we're talking about today. We're talking about the revenge of the Uniparty, the revenge of the establishment. Steve Bannon just came on here and said this was Mitch McConnell's rearguard action through John Thune, pushing Matt Gaetz out.

out or blocking, chop-blocking Matt Gaetz from getting into the Attorney General spot. But Kenny, here's a question that I'm going to toss to you. Not do I think Governor DeSantis should appoint Matt Gaetz, but would he appoint Matt Gaetz? And by the way, by the way, I will put out for the people as well that they've had a great relationship in the past, even though they saw different ways on the primary, that Gaetz and DeSantis have always had a fantastic relationship. But I'll toss it to you, Kenny. What's up, man?

I mean, I think his political instinct is, if the 2024 told us anything, is that DeSantis has no national political instinct. Now, for Florida to stay popular with the state legislature, the congressmen's there, the congresspeople there, for sure, yeah, he's got some political instinct. But nationally, he just doesn't. And, you know, the smartest thing DeSantis could absolutely do to win back MAGA, to get America First Republicans and conservatives on his side, would be to appoint Matt Gaetz, even if it was just for two years. Matt Gaetz wouldn't even have to serve the entire terms if he didn't want to.

But, you know, just for two years, that would absolutely get MAGA and the American First Republicans back on his side. But will he? I don't think so. I think he'll appoint somebody like his Lieutenant Governor Nunes. I think he'll appoint someone, you know, that's been either out of politics or barely in them. Definitely not a firebrand Republican. I just don't foresee it. And like I said, not that DeSantis is a

horrible governor or anything, but the dude has no MAGA instinct. He has no America first instinct. And that's what we need right now in the absolute battle for our nation when we are hitting dark times and we're having to go after fellow Republicans because they're not willing to stand up like the Democrats do to us every single time. We need a firebrand fighter. We don't need a normie con Republican in this Senate seat or in Gates's congressional seat for that matter if he doesn't run for the 119th Congress. So

Do I think he will? Probably not because most Republicans don't because, Jack, as we know, most Republicans are bad because they are not willing to fight and stand up for the America First movement. So I don't think he will. I wish he would.

Well, look, you know, and one thing that I'll add, and I've seen this thrown around out there, that if DeSantis were to appoint Matt Gaetz as senator, then that would likely prevent Matt Gaetz from running for governor when his seat comes up, when DeSantis' seat comes up and he's terminated out in 2026.

So it would really open a seat up there. So definitely some interesting things to think about. And we know that Gates certainly has been throwing his name out there for Senate and for governor, for some other things. And I think, I'll put it this way, folks, don't count out Matt Gates. It's as simple as that. But Kenny, when you're looking at something like this, how should people understand the power of the Uniparty? What do you think about Steve Bannon's comment about the rearguard action of Mitch McConnell?

Mr. Bannon is absolutely right. I mean, just because Mitch McConnell is retiring from being majority leader doesn't mean his same people are not working to undermine the MAGA movement and to undermine the America First movement. They're going to try in every single trove to go after Trump, to go after the MAGA Republicans, to go after those very few Republicans that we have in the United States Senate GOP caucus.

that they're going to try to undermine him at every single opportunity. Now, I think that we're going to have to really see the nominations of Hegseth, Gabbard, Kennedy, and others to see how much influence we can really have over these establishment Republicans. But we are not at a battle for against Democrats, against the cultural Marxist left. We are a battle against the unit party, and people don't realize that

that just because we have won, just because Trump dragged the establishment Republicans over the threshold to get the majority in the House and the Senate doesn't mean they're not going to try to undermine him at every single opportunity to keep their stranglehold on Washington, D.C. But the problem is,

The American people voted to get this out of Washington, D.C. They voted for a mandate to change the establishment, not to bow down to it when times got tough, not when there's a 53-47 majority in the Senate, and not when we have a majority in the House and the executive branch. We do not need to give up. But you need to realize that Republicans don't love you.

Do these establishment Republicans want to hurt you just as bad as the Democrats do? That's why Mitch McConnell and others toe the line for Joe Biden are not willing to toe the line for Donald Trump. So we have to fight back against them on these committees, on nominations, on legislations, with executive orders, and who we put running the executive branch and who we put running a lot of these committees when we get the majorities. We have to assign and appoint

and confirm every single person that wants to serve in Donald Trump's administration to put forth the MAGA mandate that the American people voted for. We cannot just allow the establishment Republicans and the establishment Democrats to continue to have control. And today, unfortunately, they probably got a victory, but we need to know that we have got to fight back if we want to win over these next four years.

Look, folks, it's going to be a bumpy ride. It's going to be a bumpy ride. Did you think? And Kenny, that's what I always like about you, man, is that you're a fighter. When that hurricane, I'll just tell people this, when that hurricane hit, when it came down, Kenny even told us, because it hit right where he lives, and he said,

And he told us, he said, oh yeah, I'm not even going to take off from our previously scheduled appearance. I'm still going to be writing. But oh yeah, I'm going to be a little busy from time to time because I'm literally bailing people out of their homes and saving people's lives and getting people food together and organizing drives. And he never once complained. He never once had a word about this. That's the hard scrabble fight that's going on.

that the MAGA movement is all about. This movement, and I'm just going to say it again, MAGA don't take days off. MAGA does not take days off. So guess what? You get hurt, you get punched, guess what? Rub a little dirt on it and get back out there.

Exactly. We had to play hurt and not injured, if they've ever heard that phrase from sports. Yes, did they hurt? Yes. Did Matt Gaetz not being Attorney General, did that hurt? Does Matt Gaetz not serving in Congress hurt? And by the way, just a quick shout out to Congressman Gaetz. I love Congressman Gaetz. Me and him agree on so many things, nearly everything. And I want to thank him for his service in Congress and thank him for his opportunity to at least go through the process of being Attorney General. But Jack, you're right, man.

This is not the end. I hate this whole nonchalant nature about Republicans just because the establishment has stopped us once that they're going to stop us again. We have to put on more pressure and have more energy now. This is not a time to simply stand back and go, well, now Hexseth's not going to get confirmed. Well, now Gabbard's not going to get confirmed. And now Kennedy's not going to get confirmed. No, we need to put more pressure. Call your senators, call your congresspeople, call people who have

any influence and get these MAGA cabinet picks confirmed so we can actually have an executive branch that works for the people and the one that MAGA voted for and the mandate we voted for. Kenny, where can people follow you, brother? At KatieCodyTN on Twitter and TruthSocial. You can find all my articles at mudcrack.com. All right, Kenny Cody, follow him up, folks.

Jack is a great guy. He's written a fantastic book. Everybody's talking about it. Go get it. And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event. And we're going to turn it around and make our country great again. Amen. All right, Jack Posobiec, back live, Human Events Daily. And there's something that I want to talk about because it's very important, extremely important, extremely dangerous for our world.

And I'm going to sit here and say that we're not going to skip this today because we do need to talk about what the warmongers and the war party are up to right now vis-a-vis the Ukraine war. And so last night and we showed this clip. I want to show this clip again, actually, real quick, guys. Show the...

Pull it up real quick. I want to show that clip again of the ballistic missile striking Ukraine yesterday. So this happened last night, that clip of the ballistic missile striking Ukraine. This is a hypersonic missile, folks. We've been talking about this. All right, let it ride.

This is hypersonic. Now, it was not an intercontinental ballistic missile because the disinfo is flying faster than an intercontinental missile, faster than a hypersonic right now because the Ukrainians are claiming it was an ICBM. It's not an ICBM. But what it was was something brand new. We were told essentially that U.S. officials believe that this was still an experimental missile,

that it wasn't operational, that it hadn't IOC'd yet, and that the IOC date hadn't occurred or they hadn't conducted any IOC testing that we had been able, the United States intelligence agencies had been able to ascertain. Obviously, that was not true because this thing works and it was a message. It was a message for the United States. And then Putin came out, and I want to be very clear about this, he's throwing down, and he came out and gave a speech within, I believe it's within the Kremlin,

and let's go and play some of the, you pulled some of the highlights and I think probably the core part of his speech. Let's play it now. And we believe it is a mistake on the part of the United States to destroy

of the system that was established by the missile treaty in 2019. We see that the United States and their allies are now considering and have successfully tested their capabilities to deploy

advanced missile systems in different parts of the world, and their exercises routinely include the use of such weapons. Russia has unilaterally refused to deploy intermediate and small-range missiles until we see similar weapons deployed by the United States in a region of the world. The use of the novel system

which was essentially an operational test, was carried out in response to the decisions made by the United States and their allies. And the further actions will be considered and decided based on what we see from them. So there you go.

Putin's saying definitively that this essentially was the operational test of their new device, that they hadn't actually. So IOC, initial operational capability. And so since it hadn't IOC'd yet, hadn't received an IOC date, that this was, he's claiming there right there, this was the operational capability test that you're watching. Understand.

Is this just saber rattling or is World War III right around the corner? Look, we know they've already changed their nuclear readiness posture in Russia already in response to the Atacoms missiles, the storm shadows that...

Britain is sending Keir Starmer, the little dog on a leash from Jake Sullivan sitting in Washington, D.C. Whatever you want, sir, whatever you want, whatever you want, I'll do it for you. No, it's a complete joke and it's disgusting because what they're talking about is what the war machine wants. They want your sons and daughters to die in the name of democracy. But in truth, it's really in the name of profit. That's what it's all about.

It's about profit. And they know Donald Trump and Tulsi Gabbard and RFK. And by the way, we're told breaking news that RFK is going to be meeting with Senate, U.S. Senate officials, U.S. senators right in probably within just a couple of minutes here on Capitol Hill.

And we know clearly, I know he's going up for Department of Health, but he's a voice, right? He's still a voice within the transition team who does not want endless war. He's someone who's consistently spoken the truth on Ukraine. And don't count out the fact that RFK simply being there doesn't mean something, because it does. He's someone who also intimately knows the intelligence community. So imagine the team that Tulsi Gabbard and RFK withheld

will make when it comes to these specific action items. Tulsi Gabbard, someone else who is absolutely committed to peace, who has credibility when it comes to this. And by the way, if you saw Nikki Haley losing her mind yesterday on Tulsi Gabbard, and I can tell you that, guys, there's a lot there. So Nikki Haley has hated Tulsi Gabbard going all the way back to 2016.

Because in 2016, not a lot of people know this, but during this time period, in the transition period, December 2016, November 2016, Nikki Haley and Tulsi Gabbard were both up for UN ambassador. Now, obviously, Nikki Haley was the one who got it, and we saw how that completely turned out. But when Nikki Haley speaks, it is not her voice that is coming out. It is the voice of the defense industrial complex.

the military industrial war machine that comes out, many of whom are situated within South Carolina. This is why you get neocons like Nikki Haley, Lindsey Graham, and Tim Scott. Yeah, I said it and I'll say it again. Tim Scott is definitely a neocon because they have such a defense base located within South Carolina.

And so the oppo that she was dropping on Tulsi Gabbard, that's going to be the first tranche. So yeah, we can laugh about birdbrain and we can say she's in that job, but keep in mind that you have to go through, and what did we find out with Matt Gaetz today? You have to go through the senators, you have to go through the process, and every single person who's in a confirmable position has to get up there and it has to be set up. So the things that she said as a Democrat, the things that she said in terms of the peace process and wanting peace in the past are all

are all going to be used against her. They're going to be twisted. All of these things will happen because guess what, boys and girls, this is called the big leagues for a reason. You are fighting and we're all fighting for control of the most powerful nation in all of human history, the most powerful nation under heaven. And do you think

that they are just going to hand you the keys? Do they think that you're just going to be able to hang out at Mar-a-Lago and have some fun and everything's going to be good to go?

No, that's not how this works. This is a fight. You don't stop fighting. You keep fighting. You keep punching because we are going to take our country back and we are not going to accept these threats lying down. We're going to get up and we're going to keep going. And let me tell you something. When I punch back, everybody feels it. Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
