We are in a fifth generational conflict.
For every lie they tell, we're gonna get in their face and yell two truths.
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
Yes or no, did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?
Whoever puts their hand on the Bible on January 20th every four years is the winner.
Okay, but respectfully, You did not clearly answer that question.
And if you can't give a yes or no on whether or not Trump lost, then how can you... Of course he lost.
Trump lost the 2020 election.
Of course.
Joe Biden's the president.
Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is reacting to this threat.
From former President Donald Trump on Truth Social, quote, if you go after me, I'm coming after you.
Now the special prosecutor is asking for a protective order.
What do you make of Judge Tanya Chutkin already denying the Trump legal team's request for more time to respond to the special counsel's protective order motion?
In frank terms, Eamon, she is Trump's worst nightmare.
Would you be willing to testify at the president's trial if the special counsel called you to do so?
I have no plans to testify, but look, we'll always comply with the law.
The Department of Justice is now running the 2024 presidential campaign because Bidenomics is failing America.
We're up against folks who'd rather let repeat offenders walk free than get tough on crime.
The Ukrainian security service says it has detained a Russian woman in connection to a plot to assassinate President Zelensky.
There's another individual involved with Hunter Biden named Eric Schwerin.
If Devin Archer was the sort of business guy, Eric Schwerin was the money guy.
And based on the Hunter Biden laptop, Schwerin had access not only to Hunter Biden's accounts, but also Joe Biden's accounts.
This means that we cannot ever criticize or look after election.
Once that happens, you have tyranny.
Isn't it terrible that a political opponent, though, can haphazardly charge you with a fake crime in the middle of your campaign in order to interfere with your time, your money, your message?
And there is nothing you can do, in theory, to stop this travesty of justice.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Live with Jack Posobiec.
Today is August 7th, 2023.
I know, Dominique, folks, off the coast of the Aleutian Islands this weekend, a flotilla, joint flotilla, China and Russia, warships joined together.
to travel through international waters conducting what they call, or what's known as, a freedom of navigation exercise, freedom of navigation operation.
In the Navy we used to call it FONOPS.
The United States Navy responded with multiple destroyers and aircraft being sent up to monitor this flotilla.
We've never before seen something like this on this scale and we certainly haven't seen something like this with China and Russia operating together.
And this serves as a direct reminder That it was the idiocy of our politicians, the idiocy of our false diplomats.
I don't even call them diplomats.
The people at the State Department are woke scolds.
Progressive imperialists, as Libby Evans calls them, and she'll be joining us soon here.
We've driven Russia and China together.
We've decided to make enemies of them both at the same time.
We've escalated against both of them.
And what's happening?
What's happening is the two of them are doing everything in their power to work together against the United States.
Do you think we're getting closer to World War 3?
Are you ready for World War 3?
World War 3 might be ready for you.
And it's not hard to see what lines everyone will be on.
Who the sides will be.
I want people to be very clear about this.
Do you understand the implications of getting into a conventional war with Russia and China at the same time?
We've called it Mearsheimer's warning.
Mearsheimer's warning is now becoming everyone's reality.
As China and Russia are breathing down our necks the way we're breathing down theirs.
We've put ourselves in this position.
We can walk back from the brink.
We can have the ability to put someone in office who actually understands what time it is and will do what's necessary to calm and ease these tensions.
Or we can let the neocons and the neoliberals Maintain their lead and keep the status quo.
And there's plenty of Republicans who believe exactly the same as the Democrats on foreign policy.
They want to push and push and push until the missiles start flying.
And let me tell you something, those missiles, those missiles will be aimed at Americans.
They'll be aimed at our sons and daughters.
They will be aimed at all of us.
You think Oppenheimer was the only time this was going to happen?
No.
Guess what happens when Oppenheimer is everywhere?
Stay tuned.
We'll be right back.
Human Events.
We've got Libby Emmons coming up next. - When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with bloods.
And them boys had a saying.
You can't be listening to all that slappy whack.
Trim out his all, it's a bam ship.
Nippy bam bam.

I want to bring in here someone I was just talking about.
So, Libby Emmons, who is the editor-in-chief of Human Events, joins us.
It's been a minute since we've had you on, Libby.
Welcome back to the show.
Thanks so much, Jack.
So Libby, I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I'll put it this way.
You know, I'm someone who, you know, people would say is more of a Trump conservative.
But you were someone that sort of came to conservatism, came to the movement, not necessarily from a Trumpian background.
You know, former liberal, right?
You know, I think you've said a number of times.
And Trump wasn't always your cup of tea.
Would that be fair to say?
That's correct.
That's why I wanted to get you on to discuss your take on how you view the 2024 primary playing out.
Because one of the things they say, they say human events, you got too many people on there that are just dyed-in-the-wool Trump supporters, that's all it is.
Red meat, Trump, Trump, Trump all the time.
It's all Trump, guys.
You don't offer anyone else who's willing to criticize.
Okay, fine.
Libby Emmons, come on, because I view you as actually someone who's a little bit more objective in the 2024 race when it comes to Trump, DeSantis, Vivek, the other candidates.
So I'd love if I could to get your take on where things stand right now in 2024.
Yeah, so as you said, I wasn't initially on board with Trump when he was elected, and I was very critical.
That being said, the instant push to resist everything that Trump said or stood for or any of his policies, regardless of what they were, was remarkably disingenuous to me.
And so I started looking specifically at Trump's policies as he went on during his presidency and made judgments based on how he was leading the country at the time, which I think many Democrats have still not been able to do.
They're so blinded by their rage and hatred for Trump.
As we go into 2024, I don't remember a time when we've seen a president come back after a loss and attempt to regain second term in office.
I find that to be a really fascinating occurrence.
If you have two single-term presidents back-to-back, it's been a really long time I've had that.
That's pretty interesting as well.
But as we look at the GOP field, I think there are a lot of interesting candidates, but Trump certainly is the frontrunner and we do keep seeing that in polling.
He's not just the frontrunner on the GOP field.
Recent polling from the New York Times showed him with a 37 percent lead.
Ahead of DeSantis, and it was very interesting.
I listened to The Daily, which is a New York Times podcast, as they tried to figure out just why Trump was 37 points ahead of DeSantis, and they really wanted to spin it in some way that was favorable to somebody else, but they were not able to do that.
I think that the indictments, the continued political prosecution of Donald Trump from what is Really, obviously to me, a not independent Department of Justice is fueling a lot of support among the GOP for Trump.
Also, he is so outspoken on how he would lead the country.
And what we see from a lot of other candidates are kind of equivocations.
I do think Vivek Ramaswamy is very interesting.
I like how he is impacting the conversation around what should be going on in the country, what kind of foreign policies we should be having.
And I like when he comes out and speaks.
I've seen him speak a couple of times and I'm very interested in what he has to say.
He has a similarity to Trump in that they are both coming from the business world without a lot of political experience prior to jumping into the presidential arena.
So that is a fascinating turn of events as well.
I will say that I had been initially very excited by Ron DeSantis.
I loved what he was doing in Florida as so many of us did.
Watching how Florida blossomed while my home of New York got virtually decimated during COVID and has still certainly not recovered.
I looked upon that with a certain measure of envy and my cousins in Florida, you know, looking at them like, oh, you get to just go live your lives.
I find it really sort of sad as to what's happened to his campaign.
I think some of that had to do with the fact that he was essentially running before he announced that he was running for president.
But I don't know what's going on with his campaign.
I don't know why they are sort of holding back, I guess maybe it is, to consider that it's maybe the benefit of the doubt to say that.
But maybe he should have slowed his roll and come out in 2028, because clearly he is a very talented leader, even if he is not particularly a talented candidate.
Well, walk us through some of that, because you say that you're disappointed with the campaign and that you're sad with what's going on, but walk us through some of that.
Where do you view those missteps, and then do you have any analysis as to why that has occurred?
Yeah, so one thing that I saw happening with the campaign team is that they seem to have started out treating the presidential run similarly to the way they treated the gubernatorial run.
DeSantis was far and away the top choice.
It appeared for Floridians when he was running for governor just recently, and the campaign kept it very tight.
I was speaking as a member of the press.
You know, I was trying to get interviews with DeSantis.
They were often pushing us off.
I know that we're a small outlet over here, but we are mighty.
Anyway, they sort of kept things tight.
They kept the press out.
They, you know, just kept it exactly to deliver the messaging that they wanted to deliver when they wanted to deliver it.
And that's really not been effective in the presidential campaign.
We see somebody like Vivek who goes out and he seems to take every media offer that's given to him.
He went on Timcast, which was great.
He came on Human Events, which is a terrific episode.
And I like how he's just gone out there and he's like, hey, who can I talk to?
Who can I talk to about what I have to say?
DeSantis has not been quite as much On board with going out there and talking to anyone who wants to talk to him.
I'd love to see his campaign talk to, you know, people on our team or some of the smaller outlets, some of the smaller media outlets and shows and podcasts.
I think that would be great.
Open him up a little bit.
I do think that it's been a misstep to keep him locked up.
I also think that talking about COVID so much, talking about the woke agenda, which certainly Was a factor during the recent pandemic era.
You got to get broader than that.
And you've got to start taking a stand and making some bold statements.
That's one of the things that people really like about Trump.
He comes out rightly or wrongly.
He says he's going to end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours.
I don't know if everyone believes him when he says that, but he sure says it with an awful lot of confidence.
And, you know, I don't know that anybody else in the world could even hope to make a claim like that.
Um, let alone actually deliver.
So, you know, I think that DeSantis has made a mistake there in not being more decisive about how he would actually lead the country.
I also think that it's a mistake to not come out and support Trump against these indictments.
When he was asked if he would pardon Trump, whether rightly or wrongly, you think Trump had done anything wrong or should be pardoned or what have you, he made a crack about Trump's age.
And of course, DeSantis is a young man.
Um, but that really wasn't the question.
And we're seeing Trump be decidedly politically prosecuted by Joe Biden's Department of Justice.
And it's so important for people to stand up and speak out against this.
You know, prosecuting your top political opponent during an election year when your presidency has been rocky and you're not doing so great, certainly in polling.
There are polls that show Biden and Trump neck and neck.
It's pretty fascinating this far out, I think.
Yeah, so that's sort of my analysis.
I think dissenters should come out, speak more, be more decisive, talk to more people, not less, and should actually back Trump to a certain extent as he faces these political prosecutions.
I think that that would go a long way for Americans to have a little more respect for what he's doing, as it is now.
DeSantis' campaign, what he stands for is a little bit of a mystery.
We get bits and pieces of what his policies might be.
I would like some more decisive statements and I'd like to see him out there more.
Well, and I agree with you on that, because I think there's this sense of it's, you know, and they may have been shifting this, I'll be fair, that they may actually be shifting this into more of a direct attack on Trump with specifics towards his COVID policies, with specifics towards some of the other 2020 law and order, the response to the George Floyd riots, etc.
And so I'd like to see that, because if we're going to have a fight over all of this, then fine.
Let's have the fight.
Let's have it out.
Let's do it.
Let's do it.
Let's get it all out there.
Libby, we're coming up on a break, but when we come back, you've got some great analysis for us about the box office, another type of fight that was going on that I really want to get into with you and everybody else.
You talk about influences.
These are influences.
movie when we come back here on the break.
Stay tuned, everyone.
Human events continue in just a minute.
You talk about influences.
These are influences and they're friends of mine.
Jack.
Where's Jack?
He's done a great job.
All right, folks, we're back to Jack Posobiec here.
Live human events on this day here in Washington, D.C.

So I want to go back to Libby Emmons here.
By the way, it's moinkbox.com slash poso.
Moinkbox.com slash poso.
I want to go back to Libby Emmons, because Libby, we've been talking about the movies, the box office, Sound of Freedom, rocketing up the charts, now $163 million.
But the big movie right now at the box office, the massive movie that's at the box office, is Barbie, believe it or not.
Barbie, and this is an established brand.
This is something that millions of people obviously already have brand equity with.
They play with them when they were kids, etc.
And Libby, you're something of a Barbie girl yourself.
And so I wanted you to walk through with us your review of the smash, this hit of the summer that everybody is going to see.
What is the internal message of Barbie, the movie, and does it conflict with Barbie, the brand?
Well, Barbie the Brand, at its best, is a storytelling toy for girls, essentially, to make up scenarios for what adult life is like.
That's what me and my friends used it for when we were kids.
We told stories with Barbies.
We had a big Barbie dream house that we shared.
I wrote about it for Human Events in an article where I actually delved into bits of my childhood in talking about Barbie, which was a great outlet for me I went on to study playwriting and I am a storyteller and Barbie was a big part of learning how to tell stories and coming up with stories with these, you know, these doll characters.
I found the film to be really disappointing.
I had hoped that it would be about imagination, about storytelling, about that kind of power that girls can have coming up with new ideas and, you know, stories.
Digging into myths and legends and all of these things, coming up with new scenarios.
But instead, Barbie gives us more Sex and the City-style nonsense about how women don't need anybody else in their lives.
How every kind of interesting thing you can come up with is derived from the self.
The character, the lead character, Margot Robbie's Barbie, doesn't even love Ken.
And in fact, what we find is that there is no love in this film.
Something that I always thought was very important in storytelling is love.
I had a drama teacher in high school who always said, where's the love in the scene?
And I feel that way very strongly when you tell stories.
That's an important aspect of it.
But Barbie doesn't love Ken.
Ken loves Barbie.
He's persistently rebuffed by her.
And it's really kind of a sad film that ends with Barbie all by herself in the real world, empowered by going to a doctor's office.
That's it.
It doesn't reveal the truth, which is that there's empowerment and partnership and love and all of that stuff.
But I want to show you this.
Wait, what is this?
What are you doing right now?
What is that?
I'm showing you my Barbie doll.
This is one of the originals.
It's Pan Am Barbie.
This belonged to my mom.
Was Margot Robbie in that show, Pan Am?
It's American Airlines.
It's not Pan Am.
I'm sorry.
Oh, it's not Pan Am.
But anyway, this is one of the originals.
It's one of the older dolls.
I also have this one.
This was my favorite 80s Barbie.
It was described, described for our, for our podcast listeners.
Can you describe the Barbie you're holding right now?
I am holding a Barbie who is eighties fabulous.
She is wearing a sparkly crinkle jacket that goes pretty.
It's a long jacket.
I'll love board boy, George style.
She has big neon plastic earrings, neon bracelet.
You can see, I even have one of her shoes.
Um, the other one's around here somewhere.
And this is a character who was called Diva.
She was from a time period in the 80s where Barbie launched something called Barbie and the Rocker.
Yeah.
Barbie and the Rockers.
It was sort of like, uh, you know, trying to do gem in the holograms, but Barbie and the Rockers.
So anyway, yeah.
When I say that, that's a time where, that's a time where I feel like this has shifted.
Oh my gosh.
There's more Barbies.
Barbie had a baby.
Yeah, this is mom Barbie and look, they're wearing little twin outfits.
It's so cute.
I have many more, but these are just the ones that I brought over here.
I talked to Angelo, your producer, about it first.
He said I could show them.
Angelo okayed this?
Angelo said this was alright?
Producer Angelo, Fahs, we're gonna have words, Fahs.
We're gonna have words, Fahs.
That's right, burying you on the show, buddy.
Wow, Libby, just with the straight knife in the back to Fahs on the show there.
So, go with me on this, though.
If Barbie the toy was about sort of the different possibilities of Barbie and if Barbie the film highlights you know I get okay so there's Barbie world and and it's sort of female centric and then Ken takes over which is based and then it becomes Kenlandia and the Kennergy is being increased which we all love
Does the end, at the end, is there a conversation about, you know, I don't know, an obvious ending where when people have these discussions that men need women and women need men and this is how society works best is when we all share.
Is that kind of the obvious, you know, ending or does it end on a different note?
That would be the obvious ending, but it is not an obvious ending.
Instead, the message is that we are all better off alone, working to self-aggrandize ourselves, looking inside for wisdom, ignoring everyone else.
And Barbie is left alone in this real-world dimension, which is also stupid.
She's all by herself at her gynecologist's office, and that is the empowerment.
Ken is all by himself.
She, in fact, tells him, you know, the best thing you can do, Ken, is go be by yourself and figure out who you are by digging inside.
And this is exactly the wrong message for girls.
It's the wrong message for boys.
It's the wrong message for America.
It's the wrong message across the board.
It's a recreation of the kind of love story that we actually need, but it's a bastardization of that in the end.
And it's very sad.
We're not going to do better as a country or as a people.
Or as men, or as women, if we continue to isolate ourselves, declare that love is weak, and that we don't need love, and that we don't need to be together, love is the strongest thing there is!
It's just actually the strongest thing there is.
And that should have been the message of the film.
And it is not.
It is instead about finding yourself digging inside these stupid ideas that have led us to The essential destruction of Western civilization, which is where we are right now.
It's absurd.
Well, I think it's also that like, it feels like a lot of these feminist style creators, whatever you want to call them, by the way, Greta Gerwig is also going to be running the new Narnia series.
So that's just lovely.
And I'm sure she's going to be locked in for that because we just went Barbillion because Barbie has just hit the $1 billion at the box office, which again, I think is because more about Margot Robbie.
It's about the brand equity.
It's about wearing pink.
They turned this into an event.
Women are all going and, you know, the guys all have to come too because it's the movie she wants to see.
So it's the chick flick that you bring your boy toy to or whatever.
Yeah, this is not a good show though.
There's the social proof.
Right, but I'm saying the marketing paints it as that.
They don't actually show you these feminist products.
But at the same time, isn't this the same stuff we've been hearing since like 2014?
Yeah, it is.
But we've been hearing it since longer than that.
It's been this sub-current, the undercurrent rather, for women in American culture that you're supposed to Do everything for your career.
You're supposed to disregard men entirely.
You're supposed to engage in casual sex, disavow motherhood.
All of these things are what have been the message from Hollywood and from television, from so much of our pop culture, and it's actually just wrong.
There are, of course, many different ways for people to go about and live their lives.
But I have known so many women who encounter themselves in their late 30s after having worked very hard, secured careers, and then they find themselves with no family, with no one to take care of, with no husband, with no feeling of a future.
A career is not a future.
A family is a future.
When you look at your children, That's your future.
You know, I think about this all the time.
I have one son.
I'm very grateful that I have a child at all.
And I look at him and I think, this is the person in whom I have a future.
You know, this is what this is about.
And I think it's really sad.
Not that every woman has to have children, blah, blah, blah, whatever, whatever.
But it is very sad that the messaging tells us that those things are not important.
And then so many women hit a stage in their lives and they realize that the things that they have focused on are not the things that are going to take them through the end.
And that's very sad.
I think that's true.
Libby Emmons, Editor-in-Chief of Human Events and the Postmillennial, go follow her because she'll be the first to tell you that Third Wave Feminism is stuck in 2014!
They have nowhere else to go.
They are the Forgotten Ones.
Folks, we're coming back.
Ben Berquam, live from Europe, joins us soon.
Buzzing in my ear about the boring people at your office, I'm trying to listen to the new human events with Jack Posobiec.
All right, folks, back here live, Washington, D.C., Jack Posobiec, and if you think I'm amped up today, if you think this show is high-wired, that's because we are promoted, we are fueled, we are energized by Blackout Coffee, and you can be, too.

I finished the last scoop this morning and I'm sitting there going, what is going to happen tomorrow?
Because I'm out of my Blackout Coffee.
I'm already Jones in it.
I'm sticking there saying, what's going to happen?
What's going to come next?
Folks, I know what I'm going to do.
I'm going to blackoutcoffee.com and I'm going to use Pozo 20.
Now, folks, I'm very excited to bring on our next pair of guests, actually.
We've got Oscar Blue Ramirez and we have Ben Burcom.
We're working on getting them up.
They do have a little bit of a security situation.
I think it's cleared up now.
We can go to them.
They're coming to us live right now from one of the no-go zones within Paris.
Ben, Oscar, can you guys hear me?
Yeah, Jack, can you hear us?
Yeah, tell us where you are.
Tell us what's going on.
Hi, we're in a little area called Clichy.
Just outside, it's Paris, it's a little suburb of Paris.
Right behind me actually, just down the street, is where they were burning the cars during the riots.
There's another spot right up the street I'm looking at right now where they're burning cars and tires.
This is one of the areas of the riots.
It's almost entirely Muslim, Muslim migrants that have moved in here.
And it's all related to the open borders coming in to Europe and the violence that we're seeing All across Europe, but in particular here in France and in Paris.
So this is that.
Walk us through some of the numbers there that we've seen because we know there's been migration, but I don't know that Americans actually understand how much migration there's been.
Well, I was just in Sweden, and the numbers that I was getting from there, you're talking about 10% of the population.
Across France, I don't have the most up-to-date numbers, but we're talking millions.
of illegals coming in, and the vast majority of them are from the Middle East.
So, you know, when you go down to our southern border, you've got people from Mexico, you've got people from Central America, you've got people from South America, and then now we're starting to see the West Africans, Central Africans, the Middle East.
Here, it's almost entirely exclusively from the Middle East and West and Northern Africa.
So when it comes to these, when it comes to the riots that took place, walk us through, and maybe, Oscar, you can explain, how is it that some of those tensions fueled the riots that we saw just a couple of weeks ago? .
It is extremely sketchy.
This neighborhood that we are located right now, Jack, as we were going through it, it is a really sketchy area.
You will see a lot of irregular individuals and a lot of mass migration that is occurring in Calais, France.
It's exactly a copy paste of what is occurring over here.
You will see a lot of the Muslim, uh, you know, individuals that they have overrun this community.
It is all packed with women, you know, wearing hijab, walking around the neighborhoods wearing hijab.
But the most dangerous thing is that you cannot pull out of your vehicle and walk safely into a, you know, in a conventional store or something.
to that effect because it is really insecure this neighborhood and just right down here there's a lot of burning spots where they were burning tires burning vehicles they were burning everything over here and it is because of this open border agenda and open border uh policies that have occurred back and jack the the the reasons that were given were the poor standards of living uh you can see that i mean it's basically slums If you actually go up the buildings behind me, you can't really see on the shot, but there are slums and everywhere this is basically a slum community.
And so a lot of it was about the poor standards of living, not being able to find jobs, you know, being treated unfairly, saying that the police were targeting them, but in reality is most of the time the police don't actually even come up here.
And it really is very similar to what we see in many of the big cities in America.
What you see in Minneapolis or Chicago or the riots, wherever BLM has decided to to take up shop and and and uh and you know start looting and rioting so it's it's that very it's that similar uh mindset and again you're you're talking about folks mostly you know that have come across that are uh that have come across uh that you know come from a a a place where it's that that's kind of the the view of the world is uh is uh you know
Criminality, corruption, and you've got to take what you want to get in life.
And when you put millions of people, or in this case, hundreds of thousands of people in a very small demographic region, it's guaranteed to boil over.
Well, not only that, but as you say, when you have that many people coming into a country, creating areas like this, it does actually then become a barrier to assimilation.
Is somebody coming at you guys there on the street?
What's going on?
Yeah, no, we're alright.
We're alright.
We're alright.
We've got some locals over here.
They're just checking us out.
They're checking you out.
Now, I remember when I reported on Malmo, Sweden, actually Rosengard, which is one of the no-go zones there, this was years ago for a documentary, one of the first documentaries I made, sort of a mini-doc, that specifically we were talking about the rise of rape in Sweden, how Sweden had become the rape capital of the West at that point, and this was back in early 2017, 2016-2017, when it took place, that this was largely driven by this mass migration
At the same time, though, I remember those areas.
There was also a ton of gang violence that you saw.
Is that some of the violence that you guys are tracking there that you're picking up?
A hundred.
Yeah, a hundred percent.
It's all the same.
I actually just came through Malmo.
I was there three days ago, and I guarantee you it's worse than it was when you were there.
I mean, basically, it feels like you're going to Mogadishu now.
And again, you go just outside there, there's some beautiful places.
Sweden's an incredible country.
But they've just invited that in they've invited death to their country, and that's exactly what you hear the gangs have taken over It's a third world gangs have come in and basically taken the the ground They're in a country in Sweden where you had virtually no violence before now you have murders out of control you have Rape of women and in a lot of these countries the women are told not even to fight back.
They're told to carry whistles and to get attention and then just to report it after the fact but this is a they do very little reporting of it especially in the media across these countries they don't want that information to be getting out there and it's the exact same thing you see here it's the you know basically these have been turned into criminal hubs so you've got the drug trafficking you've got the sex trafficking you've got everything that goes along with that and again just that that third world mentality that you know
The rules where I came from are the rules I get to live by because nobody's telling me any differently.
Now, we know that there's been some talk lately about France potentially taking military action in Africa, specifically within Niger.
What would the response, you believe then, be of among these areas if France does indeed intend to launch interventions there?
Well, it's just like we're seeing in Sweden, where they say it's their right to be able to burn the Quran.
We're seeing terror attacks increase skyrocket, and we're already seeing that here across France.
It's very little reported, but you're having attacks on Christians on a daily basis.
You're having attacks on Christian churches on a bi-weekly basis.
So that's the whole idea, is you bring this Trojan horse of illegal migration.
We see it in America.
We see it over here.
It's all connected to the global reset.
And you bring this in, and then anything you try to do that is actually good for your country, or to stop violence coming from another country, if it offends that special class of citizen that you've given granted protections to, you are just inviting that.
So guaranteed, if that happens, you're going to see massive violence coming from areas like this.
Well I think that's exactly right, and so you're now running the potential that if France wants to send, obviously a NATO nation by the way, wants to lead this intervention into Niger, into Western Africa, if they're going to do this, respond to the military junta that's taken over Niger,
That they then potentially would be facing problems within their own backfield from people that have come from West Africa because, as you say, there are huge neighborhoods within Paris where we saw just a few weeks ago, they were riding, they were burning cars right down the street from the Louvre, right on the Champs-Élysées.
These are the tourist areas of Paris.
These are some areas where, you know, not far away at all.
I know you guys were at at Notre Dame earlier today.
Another building, not just a building, obviously one of the most famous and important churches in the world that also was very mysteriously burned and we never got a good answer as to why that took place.
Guys, I've got a break here coming up.
If you're able to, I'd love to be able to come in and give the last segment of the show to you if you feel like the situation is safe.
Are you able to do that?
Yeah, I think we're okay right now.
Alright.
All right.
Well, hold on, guys.
We've got a couple of minutes left.
We're going to take our break.
Stay safe there on the streets of the No-Go Zone.
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
Alright, Jack Pacific, we're back here live in Washington, D.C., but our crew is live down there, the Real America's Voice crew, Oscar Blue Ramirez and Ben Berkwam on the streets of the No-Go Zone right there in North Paris.
When we left, we started talking about the burning of Notre Dame, which took place several years ago.
Ben, what are people on the ground telling you about Notre Dame, about what happened there?
Well, first off, the local officials officially say it was they still won't tell you exactly what happened.
They say it could have been electrical fire, could have been a cigarette that started it.
But I just want to give you some context.
So for people that that don't remember, this was four years ago.
It's hard to believe that it was four years ago.
It was April 15th of 2019.
That's when Notre Dame went up in flames.
And I think to the world I was watching, I just couldn't believe it.
I was I've been here just a few years earlier and it's One of the most spectacular buildings you could ever go into.
And so it happens the week of Easter.
It happens at the height of COVID when nobody's in the building.
And they want us to believe that it started with an electrical fire in a place where we're told that it's questionable whether or not there was even a electrical outlet in that area or anything that could have started the fire.
So more of the story is, there is a lot of questions surrounding it.
A lot of people don't trust what the government, the official government is saying about it.
And who can blame them when, again, you're having attacks on Christians on a daily basis.
You're having attacks on Christian churches, burnings of Christian churches on a weekly, if not every other week basis.
It's just, it just goes, it lends itself to people not trusting the government or the response.
And it also lends itself to the government trying to cover it up because they just don't want this information out there.
They don't want a civil war.
They don't want people trying to stand up for themselves, even have it on their police Police cars, it's basically, if you're attacked, just report it and know your rights.
It's like, don't defend yourself, don't actually come out, don't actually try to stop any of this stuff, and that's the mindset here.
It's basically, it's national suicide to France, but it's also, you know this, it's across the entire continent of Europe.
Well, tell us more about your trip, then, because that's exactly what you guys are doing now across there.
Well, yes, outside of, yeah, Poland and Hungary still doing quite well in terms of this, but tell us more about your trip.
How long are you guys there?
Where have you been so far?
If you're able to tell us, I mean, obviously there's security concerns, but what you plan or where else you plan to go while you're there.
Well, Jack, we landed on the Netherlands just a couple of days ago and we just did an investigation with the farmers at the Globalist.
They're basically hijacking the freedom of the farmers.
They're taking away their land now because of these environmental restrictions and they want to build governmental houses for the mass migration that is coming in.
That is one of the things that is incredible and that it's actually happening in the US with you know you can actually see it from Mexico it is happening with shelters and also with detention centers and the other topic you know it is what is happening in terms to mass migration to happen from South Africa that is arriving to Calais France that we were there they took us into this hub some migrants this abandoned house if This is unbelievable the way that they're living and the way that actually trafficking it is continuing.
We saw a lot of migrants from Iraq.
We saw a lot of migrants from the Middle East and also ultimately from South Africa.
And just in addition to what you were saying, the gangs, this is exactly what is happening in the continent of America.
The United States is admitting one of the most dangerous gangs from Venezuela, that is the Tren de Aragua.
We saw that in the caravans and we have thousands of them.
Inside of the United States of America, basically France to the UK.
It is like Mexico to the United States.
It is the trampoline of migration into the UK and it is just a copy paste of what is happening with Mexico and also with the United States.
Just to that point real quick, this is all connected.
So you have cartels and transnational criminal syndicates that work in every single one of these countries that now have alliances going.
They've had alliances for years.
You look at Venezuela.
Maduro, he's one of the largest, if not the largest, drug traffickers in the world.
He's also heavily involved in human trafficking.
He has routes and alliances with terrorists.
and terrorist countries and they come right in here to Europe as well.
And then that all goes back into the United States as well.
So it's all connected.
So the intention of this trip was to connect the dots between what we see in America, the invasion we see on our southern border and what's happening in Europe and the organizations behind it.
And it all goes back to United Nations, this idea of the global reset, the global compact of migration, all of this godless globalist leftist communists that want to reset the world in their own image.
And what it means to us, what it means to you, what it means to the world is mass death.
It means torture.
It means the destruction of your country.
It means lost jobs, everything, everything reset to this.
Death of not just America, but of the world.
And so we're going to be connecting the dots.
We're going to be heading to Poland.
We're around here tomorrow.
We're going back to the Netherlands, going to Poland, and then we're going to some places we're not talking about yet.
But stay tuned for that.
But I have to say, Jack, we really want to say thank you for this trip.
This was sponsored in part by our friends over at Patriot Mobile.
We couldn't be doing it without them.
And this is really the key, that we support the companies that support the values that we believe in.
PatriotMobile.com, and if you use promo code RAV right now, R-A-V, you get free setup, free activation of your phone.
So, not just them, but the other ones as well.
We've got some new friends over here on their dirt bikes as well.
Looks like those guys are circling around there.
Are you able to tell us a little bit about the security setup that you have?
I hope it's not just the two of you and a camera right now.
No, we've got Chuck Holton.
He's an American badass.
He's a former Army Ranger.
Army Ranger.
I know.
I'm a little tired right now.
He's a former Army Ranger and he's going with us.
He's got eyes on.
He's got eyes on our back and eyes on our front and we're well protected.
But the other thing with it, as you know, Jack, is we've got God's Angel Armies that go with us as well.
We are well protected.
Amen, that's exactly right.
Ben, Oscar, final words.
We've got about a minute left here.
Where can people go to continue to follow your reporting, to continue to break this agenda of exactly what's going on?
The death of nations as sponsored and supported by the UN and the World Economic Forum.
Well, lastly, wake up, America.
In the eyes of darkness, there will always be light.
So to all the young people, you need to wake up and understand what is happening.
And it's just bring God into your homes and to your schools.
That is the number one thing that needs to happen, Jack.
And you can follow us at America's Voice News.
You can follow me right there.
And also Oscar Blue Ramirez on all social media.
Yep, my social media, I couldn't say it any better.
Be light in the darkness, guys.
That's what we're called to do for such a time as this.
Every generation has that fight.
My last thought, we were in Normandy yesterday, and you look at the grave markers of 9,000 men who sacrificed for our freedom.
It's this generation's turn to stand up and fight back, or else we're going to lose it forever.
You can follow the reporting.
I'm posting new stuff that we got today at Ben Brokawm on all social media, americasvoice.news, and then on my website, frontlineamerica.com.
Amen.
Ben, Oscar, stay safe, guys.
We're going to be praying for you.
We'll be in touch.
I'll talk to you after the show a little bit, but I definitely want to be involved as much as I can to be able to support.
I know everyone in the Human Events audience will as well.
