The Pozo Daily Brief.
This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran, This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
Trump now faces a 34 count indictment.
Judge Juan Merchant also denied Trump's motion to dismiss the Hush Money case.
So as we know, that jury selection will be beginning on March 25th.
And now this is just one of the four criminal trials that Trump faces, and he has continued to deny any.
Wrongdoings.
Fulton County officials preparing for every outcome in a major hearing on the Georgia election indictment.
A key witness is expected to testify tomorrow about the Fulton County DA's romantic relationship with one of her top prosecutors.
And now, more than half the remaining defendants in the indictment are signed on to this motion to remove them over what they say is a conflict of interest.
You said in the affidavit that you roughly shared travel though, correct?
Yes ma'am.
Okay.
So this roughly sharing travel, you're saying she reimbursed you?
She did.
And where did you deposit the money she reimbursed you?
It was cash.
She didn't give me any checks.
So she paid you cash for her share of all these vacations?
Mr. Schaefer, you'll step out if you do that again.
Yes, ma'am.
CBS News has learned that what's described as a serious national security threat is related to the launch of a Russian rocket last week carrying a top-secret military payload that is now in orbit.
Today's parade was wrapping up when gunfire came out of nowhere and here's what we know right now.
One person died in the gunfire.
21 others were shot, many of them in critical condition tonight.
Nine of the shooting victims were children.
...that preliminary investigative findings have shown there was no nexus to terrorism or homegrown violent extremism.
This appeared to be a dispute between several people that ended in gunfire.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, powered by our folks over in Washington, D.C.
Don't we love them so much when we are live here?
Today is February 15th, 2024, and with Dominique, I have a question.
So yesterday, there was a shooting, a mass shooting at the Super Bowl parade.
Yet this story seems to have vanished from major news coverage on liberal media.
And yet we're also hearing these statements from people like the Kansas City Chiefs, RG3, Travis Kelsey, President Biden, many others.
The Brady Group is pushing this Travis Kelsey statement about gun control, gun control, gun control.
Now this shooting is horrific, as are all shootings.
This is absolutely unacceptable and it shouldn't be acceptable in any city in the United States, let alone one that's hosting a day that should be celebratory, a Super Bowl parade.
And yet what's interesting to me is that the individuals involved in this were detained as of the time of the show.
And our producers here at Human Events have been looking at this minute by minute, have still not been charged, even though we can see the video of fans, you know, toxic masculinity at work again here, chasing down, tackling one of the shooters.
Right there on screen, we can all see this.
And yet the person hasn't been charged yet.
Now I understand, you know, perhaps this person was, was running away.
Perhaps this person wasn't directly involved.
Okay.
But you'd think that by 24 hours later, an event that has literally hundreds of witnesses, if not thousands, cameras from every media agency, cameras from all over the world involved, you can't put any charges out in 24 hours.
You can't put the identities out of the people that were involved in this thing.
Who had the guns?
How much investigation do you actually have to do?
And it's very strange because the police are telling us that it wasn't terrorism and it wasn't extremism.
Okay, good.
So if you know that's not what it was, then why won't you tell us who was involved?
Why won't you tell us what's going on?
Well, I'll tell you a little something about Kansas City.
Okay, Kansas City, KC, is also known as Killa City.
Why is it called Killa City?
Because Kansas City is full of gangs.
Kansas City has so many gangs, there's literally a map, if we can get this up, map break, that Google residents, Google users have made of residents to know which gangs control which areas of Kansas City.
Kansas City had its number one deadliest year on record just last year, the year that ended just a few weeks ago.
But the media won't talk about gangs.
The police won't talk about gangs.
Travis Kelce, I would really appreciate if Travis Kelce could say anything about the gang violence that's going on, again, in your city!
The city that you are a representative of, sir.
A city that you're a champion of.
If you're going to be this great role model, then talk about the violence that's actually plaguing your city.
Don't blame guns.
Guns didn't do this on their own.
People carried those guns, sir.
Bad people.
And those people should be charged and should be locked up and we should talk about this.
So why won't you bring it up?
It's very simple.
And by the way, President Trump launched an operation called Operation Legend in Kansas City to stop this.
Joe Biden shut down that operation on day one of his administration.
Representative Josh Treiber from Michigan joins us next.

Very excited to bring on here one of the most, I guess I should say, outspoken state representatives in the entire country.
His name is Josh Shriver, and he's at the center of a big story that's going on right now in the state of Michigan for retweeting myself, your humble host, And a meme which I placed up talking about the demographic change in the United States as relates to the open border policies of our current government.
His name is Representative Josh Shriver.
He joins us now.
Representative, how are you today?
Blessed and highly favored.
How are you?
God bless, I am as well.
So tell me about your background a little bit.
What brought you into politics?
Where do you come from?
I understand you represent an area that's just outside of Detroit.
What made you want to run for office and get involved as an elected leader?
Well, I taught kindergarten and I'm currently an autism clinician.
And it was just really a call from God for me to get into the fold and represent Him and stand for truth regardless of personal expense.
And that's really what I'm aiming to do right now.
And so in standing for truth, it sometimes, as you say, it requires personal expense.
And there are certain things that we have to discuss that are going on in our community, that are going on in our world.
The last segment, I just talked about this horrific shooting at the Super Bowl parade that went on.
And yet we can't seem to get any answers out of the Kansas City government or their police about what actually transpired in And it's been 24 hours.
They're not telling us anything about what happened here.
When I look at the situation going on at our southern border, when I look at the situation as pertains to, you know, we've just had obviously the first cabinet secretary impeached in 150 years over the conduct of this administration as pertains to what's going on at the border, the mass migration, we've just had obviously the first cabinet secretary impeached in 150 years over Clearly, this is a this is not a threat that is only taken seriously by a few people.
It's something that's taken very seriously all the way up to the House of Representatives.
So when when I posted this, this image of, you know, highlighting this issue and you posted your essentially a graph talking about it.
Why was it that you chose to highlight this and why do you think this is something that affects not only not only our country but the area that you represent?
Well, there's numerous instances of Democrats talking about replacement migration, its effects, the demographic changes, how that essentially changes the identity of the country, the voting blocs, and the ruling class, and essentially keeps them in power at this stage.
And so I was alluding to the fact that our demographics are being shifted in an intentional manner to change our demographics and essentially secure power for the current regime.
And that's really my intention.
Well, you know, it's funny you mentioned that because we actually have a clip all prepared specifically backing up what you just said.
Guys, let's play that clip of the Democrats agreeing with Representative Shriver.
It seems harder and harder to ignore that the echoes of replacement theory In a few years, we're going to be a majority brown country.
White people will not be the majority in the country anymore.
This will be the first generation ever in American history in which whites will be a minority of the generation at some point.
As of 2007, every year babies being born in this country, whites now are the minority.
In 2044, everyone is going to be a minority.
As the demographics change, as white people become the minority in the country, which is coming.
Demographics is destiny.
Demographics is destiny.
Demographics is destiny, right?
The country is changing.
I've been saying it here, other people have been saying it here for years now, even before Donald Trump.
The demographics is destiny.
The white population is declining for the first time in history in America, while the number of multiracial Americans have more than doubled.
So we live in a country where the demographics are changing, it's becoming less white.
Correct.
Okay.
You'll be announcing that we're calling the 38 electoral votes of Texas for the Democratic nominee for president.
It's changing.
It's going to become a purple state and then a blue state because of the demographics, because of the population growth.
The growth in Texas has been almost entirely driven by non-white population growth, mostly by Hispanic and Latino population growth.
The idea that, you know, whites will not be the majority I mean, that's, it's an exciting transformation of the country.
It's an exciting evolution and, you know, progress of our country in many different ways.
The white population is declining.
It was always on the upswing.
So that speaks to the beautiful diversity of America.
It speaks to how that population will, the demographics, We'll weigh in politically.
I believe anybody who acts as a replacement is to blame.
Not for this particular crime.
But it's for no purpose.
No purpose.
Except profit and or political benefit.
And it's wrong.
It's just simply wrong.
Now, this is confusing to me because when I made my post, and you retweeted it there, that I was told that this was a fringe conspiracy theory, that it's not happening, that it's not true, and yet I hear people like Nancy Pelosi saying that this is happening, and she's talking about the political shifts, specifically, that will come as a result of this demographic change.
I'm seeing CNN, I'm seeing Anderson Cooper, I'm seeing MSNBC, I'm seeing a number of Democrats talk about this.
So what's the disconnect here?
Why is it that this is something that they can applaud, but when you bring it up, and by the way, I didn't even notice you saying anything positive or negative about it, you were simply just pointing it out, that you found yourself in such a situation.
It's no coincidence that you and Tucker and Vivek and Trump and me have been talking about this.
There is an intentional move for this.
This is really in Michigan.
It's just about Gretchen Whitmer using abortion and me to steal 15 electoral votes away from Trump in 2024.
And, you know, her role as his campaign manager, essentially, in his campaign makeup, that's an essential component to what's going on right now in our state and what's happening to me.
Well I certainly agree with you, the political dynamics can't be overlooked and the fact that Michigan, we've seen in polling, in poll after poll after poll, President Trump is up, President Biden is down, RFK also by the way looks like he's taking a significant amount of voters away from Joe Biden.
We also know that there's a significant amount of voters in Michigan, particularly the Dearborn area, where they refuse to meet with the Biden campaign.
A lot of Muslim leaders saying they refuse to meet with them.
That support not necessarily going to Trump, but also not going to Biden either, because they're upset about his conduct, or his support, I should say, of the conduct of the war between Israel and Gaza.
And so this idea that it's politically charged, and we are in an election year, and the fact of the matter is that Michigan, look, here on Human Events Daily, we talk about the importance of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania predominantly on this program because I really do think those are the bellwethers of the country and going to be the bellwethers of the election whether we go towards a Democrat win or Republican win.
It's really going to come down to this.
I couldn't agree with you more that Gretchen Whitmer is clearly using this situation, blowing it up, something that obviously a lot of Democrats talk about all the time.
Joanne Reid talks about it almost every single night, but they're looking at it to say, right, we've got a way to try to drive these votes away from Trump, drive votes towards, you know, maybe towards their preferred candidate, because they realize that they have nothing they can actually run on.
They have nothing they can actually support.
And if I remember correctly, Gretchen Whitmer is someone who's actually been talked about a few times as a potential running mate for Joe Biden.
Yeah, she has been.
As far as how this has impacted me, you know, I've gotten countless calls, texts, letters, and emails from within my district and all over the country in support of my courage to stand for what's true.
And if you're interested in supporting me, you can visit joshschriver.com to learn how to join the fight and stand with me.
No, I think that's right.
And we've got, uh, we've got a little bit more time with you after this.
We got one break coming up because I would like to ask more about what the response has been.
Obviously we know, uh, publicly the, the Michigan state house has come out.
A lot of Michigan Republicans, mostly Michigan Democrats come out against this, but at the same time, it, what strikes me as, and this, this is just where, where I come down on it.
You know, I'm, I'm a guy who's from Philadelphia area originally.
And you know, we saw these changes happening as I was growing up and we saw the rise of crime.
We saw the rise of violence and the fact that our elected leaders wouldn't talk about it.
And if you brought it up that you were you were branded with some, you know, some slur and they said, you know, oh, you're not bringing that up because, you know, because you actually care about your community.
You're doing it because of some, you know, some phobia or something.
And I said, no, I actually like my neighborhood and I like my town and I like being able to live with my family and live in the community that my family has lived in for a very long time since we came to this country from Poland.
And we love where we live and we don't like these these changes.
We don't like the rise in crime that's going on.
We'd like to fight back against this.
And you get slandered.
You get told to shut up.
You get told you can't speak.
And I've seen that same situation.
You talk about influences.
that same dynamic play out in my own life.
And I think we're seeing it play out in many places around the country.
And then the next level for them to blame your tweet, really our tweets, on violence is also just so confusing to me.
So I'd like to talk a little bit in the next segment about the violence in the state of Michigan.
Stay tuned.
Be right back here with our exclusive interview, State Representative Josh Traber.
They talk about influencers.
These are influencers.
And they're friends of mine.

We're back now with State Representative Josh Shriver of Michigan.
So, Representative, I looked up during the break, cities by homicide rate in the world, the most recent statistics that I have in front of me from, I believe this is from JSTOR and others, say that the city of Detroit's
Homicide rate based on the entire world out of cities in the entire world ranks at 23 the 23rd most violent city in term most deadly city on the face of the planet and When I I saw this this attack on you this response that you got people claimed that it was violent and And so I look back at this and I say, wait a minute, is it the is it tweets?
Is it ideas that are causing the violence and causing the bodies to stack up in the city of Detroit?
And I'm not from Detroit.
I'm going to be there this summer.
Turning Point's holding A big event there just before the convention, which will be in Milwaukee.
And you know, we're holding this event, the 23rd most deadly city on the face of the planet.
So you tell me, State Representative, what is driving the violence in Detroit?
And is it tweets?
I mean, I haven't seen any evidence of tweets driving violence in Detroit.
I've been told by Speaker Tate that the reason why he's punishing me and disenfranchising all 90,000 constituents in my district is because he doesn't feel safe.
Uh, with me, he's got my personal number.
We've talked, we've texted, we've met, we've, you know, we're, we're, we're on a personal basis, but, uh, he never thought to seek clarification.
He went straight to the press and he turned this into something.
And like I said earlier, this is, this is a way for them to steal 15 electoral votes from Donald Trump in 2024.
And so, uh, that's really what it all comes down to is it's politicky.
And they're using this as a way to further their agenda and censor me and disenfranchise all 90,000 of my constituents.
And now that they've done this to you, you still have your office, obviously.
You still have the bully pulpit of being in office.
You can come on shows like this.
You've got, obviously, your own social media.
How do you plan to respond and how do you plan to continue forward with your office and with your work now that this has been done?
Well, I'm going to continue explaining all of my votes.
We've got about 600 or so, so far, and I'm one of a few representatives that explains every single vote I make and why.
And so I send that out to about 30,000 constituents who have got information for And that's something that I'm going to continue to do.
I'm working on about 70 bills across every single sector.
And so I'm going to continue working on good policies.
And at the end of the day, heading into 2024, no one is ever going to run to the right of me.
If the Republican establishment wants to oppose me in this election, then I'll defend the seat that God called me to.
And I need your help.
Visiting joshschreiber.com is one way to start that process.
And it's going to take a movement for sure.
What is your message to people who say that, you know, basically what I was saying earlier, that say, you're not concerned about the changes in your community.
You're not doing this out of good faith.
You're not doing this because you want to set a good example.
You just hate people who look different from you.
You just hate people who talk different from you.
What is your response to those folks?
I love everybody.
I'm a Christian.
Christ died for all of our sins, and that is an invitation that is open to everybody.
And God called me to this position.
Scripture says that it is God who appoints our elected officials.
I'm constantly praying for all my colleagues, all of my residents in district and across the world, that they would come to know Christ.
And at the end of the day, that's what it comes down to.
And so my love is as deep and as wide as the love that God has for me, and that's a gift from Him that I freely have for everyone else.
Well, I appreciate you saying that.
You know, we're in the Easter season.
I'm Catholic.
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday.
Of course, you know, Lent is something that we're in right now.
I've even said, funny, not in relation to this, but I actually said what I'm giving up for Lent this year is that I'm going to be, I'm going to try to be nice to people on Twitter.
And so, you know, no, no negative tweets, no being mean to anybody, you know, regardless of how anybody attacks me.
And actually I'm giving up We're going to do no-screen Sundays as a way of sacrifice and personal growth, and as a way of trying to become closer with God as we're in this season.
Because, of course, that is exactly what we're called to do.
Remember Christ, when He died for our sins, even prior to that, this was God bringing Himself low, humbling Himself to come into.
come into the world, come into creation in the lowliest of ways, face false accusations, face persecution all the way up to and including the death penalty itself, which he gladly undertook for the purpose of the sacrifice for the forgiveness of all of our sins.
And so, You know, I agree with you.
When I look at a situation like that, we are called absolutely to believe that all others are God's children.
And when we are given positions of power, whether it be, you know, look, I got a microphone, but you're an elected leader.
You know, we are called to look out for other members of the flock, look out for other members of the community.
And from my perspective, I think that's what the Easter season is really all about.
And as Christians, that's what we're called to do, isn't it?
Christ and the Twelve Apostles were all heinously tortured and murdered, and would be an extreme failure in the eyes of the world.
But we live in the world, we're not of the world, and we're called to a higher standard.
And so as we seek first the Kingdom, we can trust that all things shall be added unto us.
And if we're truly walking in the path of Christ, In this world that's increasingly dark, then we should expect similar fates and be willing to stand for our faith in Christ unto death, unto torture, unto defamation.
And that's something that empowers me every single day.
It's something that my life has been completely changed around.
I'd love to come back on and share more about my testimony and how I came to Christ when I was in college and the 180 that God has done with my life.
It's a beautiful thing.
And I'm just prayerful that people would give their lives to Jesus and accept Him as their Lord and Savior and believe that He rose from the dead.
And it's that easy to begin your journey.
And after that, it's not easy, but His yoke is easy.
And so there's definitely another in the fire.
As we go through our Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego moments, there is no lion bigger than any den that we could ever be thrown into.
And so there's confidence in the midst, even though it's challenging at times.
Well, there's power in the blood, of course, and we were told, right?
We were told that this is how the world would respond to the believers.
We were told, we were warned, we were given that message.
And as you say, it's so funny because we just had Eric Metaxas on yesterday, and he has this great new documentary out called The Letter to the American Church.
You were talking about this idea of Romans 13 and sort of like Romans 13 Christians that, you know, you should always follow whatever the government says, you should always do whatever the government tells you to, that we're all subject, we all must admit, And I responded to this strain of thought in Christianity, or a lot of Western Christianity in the American church, where they say, oh, we should just go along with whatever the prevailing wisdom is.
And I said, well, it's certainly not what the apostles did at the time.
apostles didn't submit to the Roman empire when the, when the Romans said, you're not allowed to worship.
When the Romans said, you aren't allowed to congregate.
When the Romans said, you're not, you, you must, uh, you know, you must, uh, uh, apostatize yourselves and you must tell, you know, you must denounce Christ.
They refused.
Every single one of them refused up to, and including in almost every single case, their own deaths.
They all refused to do it.
And they all went through the death saying that we saw this man rise from the dead.
And that is the story of Easter.
And if that isn't one of the greatest living and historic testaments that we have throughout all of history, that all of the apostles tortured and killed refused to, uh, refused to review Christ, not every single one of them, because they, of course, the Romans wanted them to say just one of them to say, this was the Romans wanted them to say just one of them to We made it up.
We were just trying to get attention.
You know this isn't real We're just opposing the throne no Not a single one of them did so, and I've always said that because they did that, and because of their sacrifice after Christ's sacrifice, this is the reason the church and Christianity were able to spread to the extent that it did.
And America is a blessing that requires maintenance.
The difference between the Roman Empire and our American Empire is the availability and the potentiality for those in the church to get involved.
And that's something that is the bedrock of why I'm here right now, is because God called me to represent Him in government, regardless of personal expense.
And so, for me right now, to be going through what I'm going through joyfully is something that God is able to give us as believers.
And so, the separation of church and state is to keep the state from infringing upon the church.
The church has every freedom, and it's necessary.
For us to respond to God's call, get engaged, whether it's at the precinct level, library boards, school boards, state level, federal level, all the above, we need to be representing God in government to reflect His excellency and His beauty in our communities.
Otherwise, there will be a God void that will inevitably be filled with godless individuals that will create a godless nation, a godless state, and godless communities where there will be death and destruction.
And that's something that I can't stand by and just allow to happen.
Amen.
Rep Josh Shriver from Michigan.
Powerful words in this Easter season.
Tell everybody again, what's that website?

Thank you.
God bless and Godspeed.
Jack wins Jack. - Where is Jack?
Where is he?
Jack, I want to see you!
Are they intentionally sexualizing our children and stealing their innocence?
I think that's right.
TikTok specifically is designed to target young people.
and these are the guys who should be getting policemen.
- Are they intentionally sexualizing our children and stealing their innocence?
- I think that's right.
- TikTok specifically is designed to target young people.
That's who their audience is.
- Have children died because of social media?
Absolutely.
Have they been trafficked off of social media?
100%.
Have they been sexually exploited off of social media?
Ongoing.
Yes.
I'm scrolling on TikTok.
I see little kids with TikTok.
What are they looking at?
This is what you don't want kids to see, is that correct?
Exactly.
And again, this is depicting children.
This is supposed to be kids.
Well, honestly, I didn't even know that transition from female to male was an option until I was on social media and began being exposed to those type of communities.
You've never seen an 18-month-old masturbating?
No, I haven't.
Have you seen any sexually explicit drag shows marketed as all ages for kids that you would denounce or think that are a problem and that you want to distance yourself from?
No.
You know this is wrong.
So... I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to end the interview.
People use the word sexualize kids at a young age or, you know, I mean, give me a break.
It just seems like there's no moral, you know, construct at all.
Are kids facing just the absolute worst onslaught of grooming that we've ever seen?
Yes, the entertainment industry is sexualizing children for an agenda.
Your daughter was secretly transitioned at school.
This policy has to do with children as young as five all the way through high school.
Penthouse.
Footed the bill to lobby before state boards of education.
Yes, Penthouse and Playboy.
The history behind this is far darker than most Americans understand.
Do you think the big tech companies at this point are essentially aiding and abetting human traffickers and people who are working to exploit children?
Absolutely.
If you don't want to hear it in a school board meeting, why should children be able to check it out of the school system?
There is misinformation presented that somehow that we're doing surgery on minors or even children, and that simply is not true.
How old were you when they gave you a double mastectomy?
It was a month after my 13th birthday.
Ultimately, we're going to talk about, are the counselors going to give them medication there at school without their parents' permission?
I mean, I think we're leading towards an absurd and horrific time.
First of all, we weren't forewarned we would be sharing a locker.
We had no idea.
I turn around, a 6-foot-4, 22-year-old man fully intact with an exposing male genitalia.
This ideology is killing our kid.
Do you think more people need to speak up to protect kids like your daughter?
Yes.
I do.
Well, I think from heaven she can see how hard you fought for her.
Do you feel like this is a war on children?
I know it's a war on children.
But, like they said, we're coming for your kids.
Yeah.
And they have.
Can I ask the camera so it turned off for just a second?
I just want to have a real conversation.
The War on Children.
Director Robbie Starbuck is our guest.
Robbie, what's going on man?
It's been a minute since we've been on air together.
I know, good to see you.
I remember those clubhouses that we did together that were way too long, but I think enthralled quite a few people.
Dude, we literally did, I think we set a record.
We had like a six hour clubhouse the last time we were on together.
Yep.
Yep.
It was, it was amazing.
We had so many people on too.
We really did.
I'm like, I'm like, Oh my gosh.
Like I didn't think, cause Tanya was awake at one point and she was just like, all right, you're still going.
Like I'm out of here.
I'm done.
And we, you know, we got all the, my pillows.
So what are you going to do, dude?
Tell me about what made you want to put together a movie like this Because, you know, you come from Hollywood.
And for folks who don't know Robbie Starbuck, he was in the Hollywood world.
He was part of that.
He was, you know, I wouldn't even say a rising star.
He was a star in Hollywood in terms of directing, was working with all of the biggest names, A-list.
And then you just kind of, you kind of rage quit.
And you're like, I'm out.
I can't do this anymore.
It's getting crazy.
And you leave California, you head out to Tennessee, which is like as far as possible as you can get from all of that.
He's been trying to talk me into coming to Tennessee, by the way, folks.
And and then you put together a film like this.
I can't imagine that too many of your old Hollywood friends are happy with you right now.
No, but you know what?
Here's the truth.
The greatest thing about me coming out as a conservative and endorsing Trump back in 2016 and just kind of rage quitting Hollywood was that, you know, you really find out that the people you think are your friends, it's all a farce in Hollywood.
It's all about ladder climbing and people getting something, you know, and sort of The association to power and celebrity and all that.
And it was always BS.
I mean, like when I was up for award shows, you know, like the VMAs, things like that, I never went.
I never went to any of the award shows because frankly, I always knew that these people were generally pretty nasty people who believed in a lot of really crazy stuff.
And in many cases have no actual value set and just say whatever their PR person tells them to say.
But I knew we needed to make this film because my wife and I were really kind of on the forefront of a lot of these issues probably about a decade ago.
Our oldest daughter's 15 and when she entered school in California, it was at a private school where a lot of celebrity kids go and we saw a lot of this stuff come in very early.
It was like a testing ground where they brought in a white privileged speaker and DEI type concepts like equity And I was the eagle-eyed parent that was all over them and I really made the school's life hell, which a lot of parents really need to do if this stuff's coming into your school.
So we saw it very early and identified, oh my gosh, they're gonna do this everywhere.
Because when it starts in California, you know that the left is planning to spread it out everywhere.
And so we knew, you know what, we need to step away from this world of entertainment, and we need to do everything we can, put everything we can into fighting this war on kids, because we knew it was coming.
But here's the thing, we also recognized, you know, about a year ago, nobody has put together all the puzzle pieces.
You know, there's little segments of this war covered in different places, or you see a bad news story here and then a bad one there, but where is the one place you can send people who don't believe this is going on, don't know this is going on, Or just want to see how it all intersects, how it all connects and how we can fight to stop it and get back to sanity.
And so we said, you know what?
We're going to create that.
We're going to make that one place people can go.
And I think we successfully did that.
You know, the response has been incredible.
Over 30 million views on the trailer.
Elon Musk posted it.
Over a million and a half people have watched the full film in the last 48 hours.
It's been nuts.
So this this is incredible response.
And obviously, Elon, you know, it's interesting you mention that because I just finished reading the Walter Isaacson bio of that.
And I mean, it's public, so I mean, I'm not I'm not spreading anything out, but it really gets into how distraught Elon was about his his son going trans.
Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, you're a dad, I'm a dad.
You never want to experience this stuff with your own kids, you know, and I don't know that there's very many things more heartbreaking than your child, you know, um, going through something like this.
And I see that with empathy for the parents whose kids do come out of this.
Cause sometimes you've got these great parents.
I can't tell you since we released the movie, how many parents have reached out who are good people who say, my kid went to college and this happened to them.
And they were a great kid.
They believed all the right things.
We thought, you know, if anybody can make it through college and not be sucked in by this, it's my kid.
And the reality is our colleges and many of our public schools and private schools here in America, they've been turned into indoctrination centers.
Parents just do not understand how bad it is.
And they need to watch this movie.
And those parents who've reached out have said, I wish I had watched this before I sent my kid to college.
And they think maybe this could have been avoided, you know.
But, you know, that's our hope with the film is we can stop.
We can save kids.
We can save the next generation.
We can stop this war from turning the next generation into essentially soldiers for Marxists.
These are modern Marxists, modern communists who want total power, and they don't care if they have to destroy children to get there.
They don't care if kids get mutilated along the way or if their minds are just totally transformed by this woke mind virus.
They will do anything to own the future.
And they don't care what kind of carnage lays, you know, along the way.
I couldn't agree more.
And you're right, man.
As a dad, you know, this is something that I think about every day.
And we try to do the right thing.
And I, you know, I take them to church.
We pray every night.
But you never know, right?
You never know what's going to happen down the road.
You never know what somebody at school is going to start talking about.
By the way, my son is five.
He's already asking me, Dad, when can I get a phone, Dad?
When can I get my cell phone?
He sees people with cell phones, right?
Not really in his peer group, but he sees it.
And so, of course, it's like, no.
Actually, I threw at him, you can get a phone when you can afford one yourself.
And that in itself, Jack.
That in itself is a science.
You know, like we talk about this in the movie, the mirror exposure effect.
They are showing kids from the earliest age possible that this is normal.
You should have a phone.
If your parent doesn't give you a phone, it's because they don't trust you.
You know, they message the kids all this stuff.
We got a quick break and we'll come, we'll come right back because I really want to get into this.
This is a hundred percent.
It's, it's mirroring behavior and we need to explain it.
Long hours.
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
Jack Posobiec back here live at Human Events Daily with Robbie Starbuck.
You know, we're already getting asked, Robbie, getting asked, when are you going to get the video interview out?
We need the video out with Robbie.
It's out.
It's out, folks.
It's out.
Thewaronchildren.com.
Everyone can go see this.
We were just talking about how cell phones and social media apps, even for kids, by the way, I'll say it right now.
As a dad who has two young kids right now, YouTube Kids is not safe.
It's just not safe and YouTube is completely banned in our house.
It's just gone.
It's completely gone.
It's off of our phones.
It's off of our tablets.
We have like a Roku, like a smart TV.
It's gone from there.
No, no, YouTube Kids is not safe at all.
Absolutely.
YouTube Kids is toxic.
It is filled with stuff to start grooming your kids.
If you look up the LGBTQ+, whatever their acronym is now, content on there, it is insane and they feature it sometimes.
So your kid will go to watch, you know, Mickey Mouse or whatever it is, and then a video pops up that is indoctrinating them into this cult and you're none the wiser.
I mean, even Blue's Clues now has these videos now with drag queens doing parades we featured in the film.
And, you know, that type of stuff, it pops up and people are not paying attention.
They don't understand that the exposures start young.
And it's all about how many times you expose somebody to something.
As a director who's directed those Oscar winning actors, actresses, I am acutely aware of the fact that Hollywood operates off of expose people to things so you can normalize behaviors.
That is what is going on.
It's what's been going on.
It's why kids feel entitled to a cell phone.
They feel entitled to have social media at, you know, 10, 11, 12 years old, and parents are giving in because of their social pressure that's been built in.
Well, I don't want to be the uncool parent.
I don't want to go through arguing with my kid about it.
You're the parent, okay?
When in human history have parents been as weak as they are now?
You need to have the courage to have moral boundaries, have standards, you know, understand the risks really that are involved in this.
And you need to watch The War on Children at thewaronchildren.com to understand it.
One of the most poignant things I could tell you that hit me during the filming of this doc is we had these teen focus groups.
We separated the teenagers out so they wouldn't know each other's answers.
And we asked them, one of the questions of many we asked is, will you give social media to your kids?
Every single kid said no, they will not.
Give it to their kids before 18.
With the exception of one child, all of them had social media.
Every teenager in these groups had it.
So that confused us.
We're like, you all have it.
Why won't you give it to your kids?
And we got a collection of answers that were very similar to something along the lines of, well, Do drug addicts want their kids to be drug addicts?
Of course not.
They know what goes along with it.
And and that's essentially the kids know what's going on.
They know that their generation is not OK.
They know that they're being pushed to stuff.
We asked each one of them, are you pushed?
This far left content on TikTok on all these different places, every single one says the algorithm tries to feed it to me.
When we asked Layla Jane, who got a double mastectomy at 13, okay, a month after her 13th birthday, she said, absolutely.
Social media groomed me.
It sent me these videos.
It was fed to me through the algorithm.
It made me feel like I had a community, like I would be accepted.
I wouldn't feel so odd, so out of place if I just went through this transition.
And along the way, not one doctor stopped her.
And tried to dive into the mental health and how she was feeling and tried to turn this train back.
No, they were full sail.
Let's go.
We've got, we can transition you.
Let's go.
Let's do it.
And that is what the medical apparatus has turned into is one giant child abuse operation when it comes to transitioning kids.
And it's not just that it's a mental health issues.
We, we connect and intersect so many issues in our country from the big pharmaceutical companies to the fact that kids believe in God less now than they have ever.
Okay?
In our life, and not even close.
And it intersects perfectly with the worst mental health crisis we have ever seen.
America needs God back, we need parents to be parents, and we need to be willing to do hard things for our kids and the future.
Because if we don't, the left is willing to do it.
Because we're talking about people on the left who are willing to glue themselves to a counter over certain types of milk they prefer at a Starbucks.
What are you willing to glue yourself to a counter for?
Pretty much nothing.
Most conservatives don't feel like protest is necessary.
I hope people get on the same page of saying, you know what?
Our kids are worth at least that effort, okay?
They're worth the effort that these leftists put in because if we don't put the effort in to fight, and I'm not talking about literally gluing yourself to a counter for your kids, but you should be willing to do anything.
And that's sadly the case as we found a lot of apathy, a lot of ignorance about what's going on.
parents didn't know what was in these apps, how their kids could have separate phones within their phone where the parent doesn't even know their kid has social media.
So there's an ignorance gap we've got to get over and watching this film is step one, going to freedomforever.us is step two, sign up for the email list and you will get sent to you a parenting revolution manual that gives you, you know, point by point, all the different things you can do to really be a part of this fight to save the next generation.
By the way, one of the things that I've been, and I might be writing on this later, but when the internet first came out in the late 90s and really started getting together, one of the biggest things that was promoted on it was pro-anorexia.
Do you remember this?
The pro-ana groups?
and then pro-mia, pro-bulimia groups.
And because those groups started growing and started finding each other on the internet, all of a sudden, anorexia and bulimia spread like over 500% shot up among teenagers across the entire world.
And it was all social contagion directly related to the promotion of these communities on the internet.
And for some reason, you are...
I mean, I know the reason, right?
But we're told that this has nothing to do with the reason we're seeing these shocking spikes in transgenderism going on in teenagers right now.
And I'm like, this is the same exact social contagion through the internet that we saw with the rise of the early internet and the pro-internet.
I'm sure there's some of them still around.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were still around.
Oh, they're not just still around, Jack.
This is a huge thing on TikTok and even on YouTube where they're celebrating this bulimia and anorexic stuff again and they are feeding the videos to young impressionable girls who already have body issues.
And not only that, you know, Oh no, I was going to say, you know, Tanya, she said, it's like, it's like, it's like, as you say, when you're a teenager, you're just trying to fit in, right?
So you want to be part of the community.
So you want to fit in.
So you want to conform.
So it's not even like, at first you think that you're, there's something wrong with you.
It's that you want to, you want to mirror, you want to, you want to, it's like monkey see, monkey do.
You want to follow what the crowd is doing.
If that's what you think the crowd is doing, you want to be part of that too.
Maybe you feel like you are a part of it.
In fact, you know what?
Yeah, maybe I have some of that or anorexia as well.
We got one minute left.
Robby Starbuck, where can people go to follow this, to get more info, to watch the entire thing, and then get connected to you? - Go to thewaronchildren.com.
You can gift it to people, you can get the movie on your TV, or if you don't have the cash right now, I want you to see the movie anyways.
It is free this week on X if you go to at Robbie Starbuck.
You'll see it on my page.
Over a million and a half people have watched it in the last 48 hours, which is just insane.
But make sure your friends and family see it.
Spread it out there.
We just had a commissioner in Michigan actually put the war on children.com on his laptop when a far-left activist came to the commission meeting to try to, you know, they're these pro-trans group trying to go and disrupt things.
And they put that on there, the whole meeting, and it's a story in Michigan today.
So people are getting grassroots with promoting the film.
Help out.
Spread the word.
But I was going to say, to your point, Jack,
