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.
Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene and Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie want Johnson to step down if he brings up a vote on Ukraine aid.
I don't know, maybe.
They should be concerned about what's good for America instead of what's good for Vladimir Putin.
Ukraine needs even more.
That is why if allies face a choice between meeting NATO capability targets and providing more aid to Ukraine, my message is clear.
Send more to Ukraine.
Today, hundreds of black migrants, many from African countries, showed up at City Hall demanding better treatment.
They say they just want a job and basic shelter.
They are here to show you that they belong and that they are here and that this should not be erased.
Please listen to them.
President Trump, what are the first things you're going to do when you take office to address the inner cities of America and give them hope to restore the American dream?
Atlanta, New York, Philly, Chicago, D.C.
As everyone knows, the jury pool is going to lean Democratic.
do their job.
They have to be given back their authority.
They have to be able to do their job.
As everyone knows, the jury pool is going to lean Democratic.
We always knew that Trump's attorneys were going to seize upon that, not only to delegitimize the charges, but to try to prevent 12 men and women plus six alternates from serving on that jury, to say it's just impossible to find enough impartial New Yorkers who can sit and judge impartially to say it's just impossible to find enough impartial New Yorkers who can sit and judge impartially a former president, And the judge in this case has admirably set all of those concerns aside. - Well, the trial is moving along.
We have a judge who is absolutely out of place.
He should not be allowed to do it.
He's conflicted like nobody's ever been conflicted.
This is a very exciting time for me because the bodegas, the association, invited me and I respect them and they respect me.
They want law and order.
They have a lot of crime, tremendous crime, where their stores are being robbed.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, here live in Washington, D.C.
Today is April 17, 2024, and our nominee, we have a massive scoop that's just been sent to us here at Human Events Daily.
This is why you watch this program, ladies and gentlemen, because we give you the news before anybody else has it.
Let me tell you what we're hearing out of The United States Senate.
And yes, it directly pertains to this new package of a four-part bill.
So, Speaker Johnson has put out a four-part bill.
A four-part foreign aid package.
Aid to Israel.
Aid to Ukraine.
Aid to Taiwan.
And split between three different bills.
$60 billion to Ukraine.
The fourth bill would seize Russian assets, force a TikTok sale, and impose sanctions on Iran.
You know what I don't see in any of these bills?
I don't see a single thing for our border.
None.
Nada.
Zip.
The American people are sold out.
Speaker Johnson, you got a lot of questions to answer.
And here's the scoop.
Chuck Schumer was just on the Senate floor bragging to other Democrats and other members that Speaker Johnson gave the Democrats everything they wanted in the Ukraine and foreign aid packages.
And that's per a senior Republican official who was there and just moments ago heard this in the Welles Senate.
There you go.
Chuck Schumer is laughing.
Chuck Schumer is laughing all the way to the bank.
He says, we say jump and Speaker Johnson says, how high?
This is one week, right?
One week after Johnson rolls everyone on the FISA bill.
So he rolls everyone on the FISA bill.
Then he flies down to Mar-a-Lago and says, oh, look at me.
Look at me.
I'm a Trump supporter.
And then he comes out.
Here we are this day.
And he puts out these bills.
And he's running this out with nothing for the border.
Not one penny.
Not one penny of this should be spent.
None of these bills should go forward.
And any Republican who thinks that they could sign one of these bills or pass one of these bills before we have anything for our border should be looking for a new line of work.
Should be looking for new employment.
Get out of government.
You have no place being there.
You want to go represent one of these foreign countries?
One of these foreign... Ukraine or Israel or even Taiwan.
Look.
Look.
Understand.
There are always going to be problems outside in the rest of the world.
There always will.
There are monsters all over the place.
Why are we going to search for those monsters?
Why are we doing this?
No.
Protect the people we have at home.
You're representing the United States.
If you don't want to do that, we'll find someone who will.

All right, folks, here we are.
President Trump has got an entire—he's on a communist Moscow-level show trial.
in new york city it ain't moscow doing this anymore it ain't the bolsheviks you got the bolsheviks of broadway that are doing it in new york city all the democrats up there and by the way thank you president trump for listening to the humble suggestion of human events daily and holding the micro rallies and mini rallies that we were the only program in america that suggested that president trump do this we're We had suggested Trump Tower.
We said, why not right in front of the courthouse every day?
Madison Square Garden.
What did he do?
He went to a bodega yesterday.
Some of the most amazing shots we've ever seen.
Because President Trump cares about the people of this country, and he puts the people of this country first.
And the elites, the elites are the people that are inside that courtroom, that are trying to shut him down, that are trying to shut him up, that are trying to shut down this movement, and are trying to send people over to die in far off lands.
I'm not sending my kids to die anywhere in some desert or some glacial plain or Eurasia or some one of these other places.
Not interested.
I'm not dying for any of these countries.
The only country I'm willing to die for is the United States of America.
Period.
And this bill is a joke.
This package is a complete joke if there's nothing in there for a border.
I got to bring our guests.
I can't.
I got to stop.
I got to catch myself.
We're going to say something I shouldn't say.
Lieutenant Colonel and Tony Schaefer.
Tony, we called this.
We called this a week ago.
We did last week.
We called this a week ago when we said, we even got the number right, because people had said originally that it might be $45 billion for Ukraine.
We said that it would be $60 billion for Ukraine, and you came on this program a week ago and you said $6 billion, $60 billion, or $600 billion.
It's not going to change the facts on the ground.
Walk me through your view of this new foreign aid package where, look, don't take it from me, but Chuck Schumer is saying that the Democrats got everything they wanted out of this.
Of course.
So there's no sense of controlling the House, who's supposed to be the origin of all bills relating to finance regarding appropriation.
It doesn't matter if you control it or not.
If you've got Mike, you know, Speaker Johnson willing to go along and give the Democrats everything, which is what's going on.
And I'm a constitutional guy.
We've talked about this, Jack.
The two governing principles of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution is common good, common defense.
So, I'm trying hard to see where there's common good here for the American people in these bills.
And most certainly, there's nothing to do with the common defense.
The common defense being that concept that if the Congress and the executive branch do things, those things should benefit the American people.
Common good, Or protect the American people common defense.
These things are bloated.
They pay off their patronage to those political supporters.
I would argue, especially the billions going to Ukraine is being washed.
A lot of that money comes back to the Democrats.
Oh, by the way, that they don't even hide the fact that it helps fund the American Arms industry that, you know, Eisenhower warned us of the military industrial complex.
Well, here you see example a of the military industrial complex, uh, working to enrich itself.
And somehow we're supposed to believe we who actually do believe in personal freedom and the idea that we should have oversight and accountability of government spending.
And most importantly, any spending that that is made from appropriated dollars is considered.
To be in the interest of the common good or common defense, nothing in this benefits the American people or the nation itself.
It's a travesty.
Of course, what you're quoting right there, or paraphrasing slash quoting, is the preamble to the United States Constitution.
That's right.
More perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty To ourselves and our posterity.
And our posterity.
So I want to remind people by that, by the way, that when the Constitution says our posterity, that doesn't mean that the United States was founded to be a nation of immigrants, the huddled masses and all this.
No, sorry, Ezra Lazarus, just because you wrote some poem, that doesn't make it the United States law, and it doesn't change US history.
Our posterity means the people of this country, not the people of the world.
That's right.
The people of this country have a specific, and we've been blessed.
We've been blessed with the abundance of resources.
We've been blessed with the abundance of land.
And that's why the United States has typically and traditionally welcomed in so many people at this point.
Right.
You know, the United States is full.
But here's the problem.
When a government that we have currently It is.
cares more about an international system.
And Tony, this is really what's going on right now, is that our government cares more about the international system than it does about the people it's supposed to represent.
We call this the collective West.
We call this the neoliberal order.
We call this globalism.
Many people have different names for it.
But that's really the issue we're seeing here, isn't it?
It is.
So to that point, I don't know of any reason that my tax dollars or any other tax dollars from anyone should be going to support that.
There's like a puppet theater in Kiev that apparently we've been paying to keep open.
Really?
I don't think that's in our interest.
I don't think I live in a very rural community here in North Carolina.
I'm on the social services board.
And Jack, we're always trying to figure out how to best use funds to support The needs of the disadvantaged.
So how is our providing money for the Ukrainian Civil Service, the Ukrainian economy?
How is that benefiting the people I actually work to support here in rural North Carolina who are poor, disadvantaged?
Some can't even get the treatment they need for, you know, Obamacare really took care of them because they don't get the treatment they need now.
So how is it that we have all this money?
Billions to spend on this foreign intervention in a civil war, by the way.
Yeah, I guess we didn't learn our lesson from Vietnam.
Jumping into a civil war there didn't really work out for us either.
But here we are, deja vu all over again, trying to actually persuade a nation Uh, that is not related to any interest of the United States that somehow, uh, we're propping them up.
We're going to give them all this cash and we're going to support your puppet theater.
We're going to support your civil service.
I don't know how any of this Jack does anything except add to the chaos.
And by the way.
Everything that has been done hasn't supported deterrence.
Vladimir Putin is not deterred.
He's stronger than ever.
His military has been rebuilt.
Who's deterred?
Is Putin deterred?
Is Iran deterred?
Is Hezbollah deterred?
Who exactly is deterred?
Hamas deterred?
I don't think Hamas seems very deterred right now.
I mean, they're getting schwacked into oblivion right now, which is pretty much the only thing you can do.
That's, that's by the way, that's by the way, what happens when you lose deterrence, when you lose deterrence, that's when you have to bring out the missiles and just start, just start going, going crazy.
And that's why, you know, we're in the situation that we are right now.
But it's, it's a joke to me when I see these things.
But Tony, I really want to ask you about this, this idea, because we hear it over and over the, the collective West, what is the collective West?
What is the neoliberal order?
And we've just got a couple of minutes left, but I want, we're going to hold you in the next segment.
Why is the collective West and the neoliberal order more important than the needs of our own people?
So the needs of our own people are, So the neoliberal slash neocons are the problem.
These are the people who actually present a front of democracy to the world, but they're the biggest corpus shills behind the scenes.
This is all about money.
It's about control.
It's about a handful of oligarchs who control things.
And that's what's going on here.
The collective West, NATO and others, want to continue to see their power enhanced.
That's why it's all about trying to control things, not create conditions for prosperity.
And that's why you see these folks COVID, they were all in on COVID trying to, that would, by the way, real quick note on that, that was the largest single period in history of the transfer of wealth in the middle-class to the rich.
It's all about trying to benefit a handful and disadvantage everybody else, but put the happiest face on it.
Like, Oh, Bill Gates, we just want to help you with our, it's like, no, you don't, you didn't care before.
You don't care.
Now you're just trying to do things to advantage yourself.
And it's this, this, this group.
That have decided that they know better than us what's best for us.
It's all about this utopian dream.
Klaus Schwab kind of outlined it in the world economic forum.
And that's why we see this the policies they put forth benefit them and literally create chaos for everyone else.
And it's fascinating to me, and I think that people need to understand, because people say, when Tony comes on here and we have these explanations of why the United States is doing what it's doing in Ukraine, and we ask these questions, why are we spending so much money?
Why are we doing this?
Why are so many Ukrainians being sent to their deaths?
Why is Ukraine lowering the age to be conscription?
Which is something else that Tony has been coming on here for months and saying was coming.
Zelensky just signed this new Ukrainian order to lower the age Yeah.
of conscription that yep this is going to come because it's manpower is the issue and nothing is going to change that other than you know when and then once you run out of ukrainians they'll the only next left uh available pool for manpower is nato and that's why you're starting to hear people say nato is coming in but i want to dig into this more because people need to understand this is why this is why you're getting no money for the border
this is why you're getting no money for all the things that are going around the country but there's a hundred billion dollars being spent on these foreign wars Stay tuned, Human Dimensions.
Can't wait to get my hands on that book Gonna dive into his pages Take a closer look at Santa Mystery The hidden tales of the communist history I wanna know the truth, what really went down

Tony Schaffer is our guest.
Tony.
Lieutenant Colonel Tony Schaffer.
Tony.
Yeah.
And the comments are incensed.
They're furious.
They say, why is it that we have guys who come up through the Freedom Caucus, who come up, they say, oh, I'm a MAGA Republican.
I'm a huge supporter.
I'm America first.
And then they get in and suddenly they turn around and it's, whoa, whoa, we got to do the FISA bill.
And then we got to do a hundred billion in foreign aid.
Don't worry about the border.
The foreign aid is what matters more.
How is it That we have this neoliberal junta, and I'm just going to call it like it is, it's a junta, it's a regime that has imposed itself sort of...
On top of our Republic, it supersedes our Republic, it supersedes the Constitution, it supersedes the way the system is supposed to work, like a blanket laying over it, a heavy blanket, right?
What do they call them?
Gravity blankets.
And it weighs down the Constitution.
And so we'll get to all that other constitutional stuff lately, but only after the needs of the Junta, the needs of the regime are met.
How did we get here?
Well, that's a great question about how do people who run on specific points of constitutionality and loyalty to the founding, the concepts of the founding father, how do they not stay true to him?
Well, I honestly don't know the answer to that question because I'm only friends with those who stayed loyal to it.
Louie Gohmert, my friend Louie Gohmert, Judge Gohmert was always loyal.
One of my dear friends now passed Walter Jones.
I live now.
I now live in his former district.
Walter was dogged and completely loyal to the concepts that he believed were important.
And he was always a stick in the mud.
He would not go along with the corporate Republicans on doing things.
And so those are the people I'm used to dealing with.
And I can't speak to how people depart from their concepts, what's in it for them.
And I guess that's the issue.
You have to go back and look at what's in it for them, Jack, because apparently somewhere, some, uh, when they arrive on Capitol Hill, something happens.
Now there's been rumors.
Uh, I think, uh, uh, is it Madison Cawthorn, uh, talked about the, the, the drug parties and the prostitutes.
I think some people are, uh, targeted.
I know for a fact that there are groups within Washington, the deep state groups, I don't know how to describe them otherwise, kind of those who are out to subvert, those who would want to stay principled and work against the interest of the neocons and neoliberals.
But it becomes something of a curiosity that results in what we're seeing now, where again, the hard work that the founding fathers did to establish a republic It's literally being subdued and subverted by interests who basically are rating the Treasury.
Right now, there's no link between appropriation of money, that is your taxes, and the money spent because they just print more money, putting us forever in debt.
There's no interest in linking our national security to the protection of the American people.
Now it's all about essentially a new form of colonialism.
Think about that, Jack.
We know the left is always against colonialism, yet somehow you're now doing expeditionary operations to support other countries.
That are not related to the United States interest Ukraine is more related to Europe and it is us but you were the ones putting the bill all these things people see they don't necessarily stand the context and what you are doing what I'm trying to do is give them an understanding is that it's bad as you think it is and those people you vote to go to Washington they become completely subordinated to this larger effort of the deep state or neolibs the old neoliberals and neo I'm good.
who were basically the Democrat Party.
And by the way, the Democrat Party seems to always get its way by some magical way.
I can't believe that nobody is up to it. - I've got a little bit of, 'cause people are sending me messages as we're going through the show today.
So here's what I'd like people to do.
Here's a phone number for you to call.
This is Speaker Johnson's office.
202-225-2777.
202-225-2777.
And I have a question for everybody out there in the audience to ask.
And specifically, I've got a name for them to ask about.
225-2777.
And I have a question for everybody out there in the audience to ask.
And specifically, I've got a name for them to ask about.
The name is Dan Ziegler.
Dan Ziegler, who is Speaker Johnson's policy director.
What I'm being told is that Dan Ziegler has been pushing Speaker Johnson to push Ukraine aid without border security provisions.
Insane.
Now, we're being told that the border is a separate rule.
But that he's been the major voice in Johnson's ear.
And I got a question for Dan Ziegler.
So when it comes to Speaker Johnson and everybody else, here's my piece.
Do you work for Vladimir Zelensky or do you work for the American people?
Which is it?
So I'd like for people to go ahead politely and respectfully, peacefully and patriotically call Every single one of you call Speaker Johnson's office and ask about Dan Ziegler, the Speaker's Policy Director.
Just so you know, Ziegler is acting on the neolib effort to basically make up to all those businesses, BlackRock and others, who were promised, you help us with Ukraine, you can carve Ukraine up and use it as a resource for EU and Russia's going to collapse.
None of that happened.
So they don't get their money.
So this is all about a payoff.
To those corporate interests, Jack, in some form, because they were promised Russia, didn't get Russia, they were promised Putin would fail, he didn't fail, they were promised Ukraine would be a permanent member of the EU, ain't gonna happen.
All these promises were made, this $60 billion is a consolation prize, and that's why Ziegler is probably linked to this group in some form, which I'd be curious to find out.
Well, and this is the thing, right?
We went over there, Human Events Daily.
We were one of the first American programs on the ground.
We went all the way down to Odessa.
We went to Nikolaev.
We got as far as the Kherson Highway.
And this is when Russia was still in Kherson, by the way.
No doubt.
before they had crossed the river.
And we saw what was going on down there.
This war has been devastating for the Ukrainian people.
It's been devastating for their demographics, devastating for their population.
The Ukrainians have not been on the winning side of this war.
We've been saying that for day one.
That's why we've been calling for an end to this.
And it's incredulous to me because you'll hear every day, ceasefire in Gaza, ceasefire in Gaza, ceasefire in Gaza.
Nobody ever calls for a ceasefire in Ukraine.
I've never heard it once.
Why not call for a ceasefire?
Why not have people come out there and say, let's at least have a ceasefire.
Let's have some kind of, you know, an armistice.
An armistice is not a treaty.
It's not a peace deal.
Freeze the conflict.
Freeze something.
They won't do it.
And because they haven't done this, because they've been continuing to push, This is why Russia does not feel that they need to adhere to deterrence at all.
That's why deterrence has completely failed, because diplomacy has failed, because nobody's even tried to do this.
And when they ask Russia about this, they say, Istanbul option, off the table.
And what did that last guy say at the UN when he went up there?
He said, the only thing that Kiev should be negotiating right now is unconditional surrender.
Now, this wasn't the ambassador, but if you've got some Russian officials saying unconditional surrender, you know he's not saying that.
without the approval of folks in the Kremlin, or at least people higher up that are on his back.
Right.
These are the hardliners of Russia.
There's other guys, oh, we'll take Putin out.
Yeah, you take Putin out, you're gonna get one of those guys in charge.
Tony, the fact of the matter is, the Ukrainian people have not done well.
They have not benefited from this war.
No.
Who benefits?
I don't know.
Who benefits?
Well, again, the global order.
This was done.
The Obama folks did this to move the Ukraine resources into the EU.
The EU wanted to have unlimited resources regarding gas, natural gas, other things.
And when they found all this in the Donbass, they figured, oh, we'll just make Ukraine a member of the EU.
And oh, by the way, we'll collapse Russia in the process.
That's what it was all about.
The Biden folks, the neocons, neolibs, both thought it would happen.
And it didn't happen.
It's not going to happen.
And the price that's been paid is by the American taxpayer and more directly and fatally, the people of Ukraine.
I feel for the people of Ukraine.
They were sold a bill of goods they were lied to.
And that lie continues.
And it's going to result in the complete defeat of and probably the failure of the nation itself into a rump state.
Of Ukraine, if people don't wake up and figure out what's going on.
And I'm just going to say this, if they get the $61 billion, Jack, we should ask for Odessa and the entire green t-shirt collection of Zelensky for collateral.
Just saying.
You want the green t-shirts?
Yeah, we can put them up on Put them up for an auction for CNN and Jim Acosta and Jake Tapper.
Jake Tapper will spend millions of dollars on that thing.
Please, please, please let me wear the shirt.
Let me wear the shirt.
Oh my gosh.
Tony, where can we follow you?
Alex over at the Durant talks about Olenski No.
5.
Make sure that Olenski fragrance comes off the Olenski No. 5.
Yeah, make sure that comes off the t-shirt.
It adds to the value.
Alex and Alexander over at the Duran.
Great guys, love those guys.
Tony, where can people follow you?
Where can they get more information?
Projectsentinel.betten.com, Twitter.
You and I are always active on Twitter.
I've been seeing people following us on Twitter, so always a pleasure to join you, Jack, especially when we were right on something, and we've been right on a lot lately, which is unfortunate, but then again, I guess our job is to tell the truth.
I say it once a week.
I say it once a week.
I say, you know what?
This is what's going to happen.
This is my assessment.
I hope I'm wrong.
I hope I'm not right about this.
I would prefer to be wrong.
I would prefer to be surprised, but nope, not happening.
What can I say?
Folks, stay tuned.
Be right back.
Taylor Marshall.
We're going to talk about the war on Christian.
See you soon.
See you soon.
you.
Folks, I want to identify this again because we're giving everybody a little bit of homework today.
- Jack Posobiec back live.
Folks, I wanna identify this again because we're giving everybody a little bit of homework today, a little bit of homework.
Dan Ziegler, the speaker's policy director, Is this true, this report that we're getting in here, Human Events Daily, that he's the one pushing the Speaker to do Ukraine aid without border security provisions?
Be ashamed if everyone peacefully and patriotically called the Speaker's office and asked.
That's 202-225-4000.
Our guest right now for this segment, though, we're going to switch gears a little bit, something that I've been talking about this man about for over four years.
Dr. Taylor Marshall joins us.
about the war on Christianity that's going on.
And Dr. Taylor-Marshall, you know, usually when you and I chat, it's, you know, we get into theology, we get into dispensationalism, but, you know, it seems to me that there's now a war on Christianity just writ large, that if you're coming out and being a public facing Christian that you're either going to be attacked, you're going to be excoriated as a Christian nationalist, or like we saw in this horrific video out of Australia, you'll be stabbed in the middle of a sermon.
Tell me why this is happening now.
Well, you know, God says to Moses, I put before you today life and death.
And he says, choose life.
So there's a binary decision for every human person.
It was given to Adam, it was given to Eve, it's given to us.
And in the West, in the United States of America, in Europe, I guess you can consider Australia as part of the West because it's part of the Western Christian tradition.
People more and more are choosing a culture of death.
They're choosing chaos and not logos.
They're choosing darkness and not light.
That has cultural ramifications.
We wonder why everything is in decay and is in chaos, and that's because God is not at the center of our culture, our civilization, our laws, our families, etc.
That's going to create a vacuum And Satan will fill that vacuum, and we're seeing that right now all over the world.
So much so, I mean, we talked about this, saying something as innocent as Christ is King, you get attacked for that.
You know, I was talking to Steve Bannon about that recently on his show.
You know, he's like, how do we get to the point where saying Christ is King is now hate speech?
I had a video That was punished, demonetized because Christ is King.
I hadn't heard about that because we were talking about this over Easter when, and we juxtaposed this from America of the 1950s.
What did we have up on Good Friday in New York City?
The New York City skyline showed the three crosses of Calvary.
The Three Cross of Calvary, that was up, that was the United States, and there was nothing wrong with that because the United States is and has always been a Christian majority nation.
That doesn't mean legally, that doesn't mean we're imposing Christianity.
The United States has always practiced legal pluralism and been, by the way, very overly, overly protective and tolerant of every single religion under the sun, more so than probably any country on the planet.
And yet, there was no problem with showing those three crosses because it was Good Friday.
Today, that would be ridiculed.
Anyone who would try to put that up, you might go to jail.
You'd be fined under some kind of hate speech provision in New York under Kathy Hochul and the current mayor.
And of course, but what do we have up?
We have LGBT, we have the Pride flag, and we have, of course, the Transgender Day of Visibility.
And so, what I say, though, is What I wanted to come back in on is, why is it though, that when I say things like Christ is King, or when people come out and start practicing their faith in an active way, that you get pushback, not just from the left, but you even get pushback from people on the right.
There's a very important reason for that.
The people you get pushed, we know why you get pushback on the left.
The reason you get pushback from people on the right, Is that they are afraid.
They have already conceded loss.
They believe that we are abandoned.
We are forsaken.
There is no way out.
So we should continue to roll over and appease our masters and maybe they'll still let us go to church once a week on Sunday, maybe.
And that's weakness.
That is not how our forefathers, that's not how the great saints, the church fathers, that's not how society was transformed.
I mean, If you go back far enough, every society, all the European societies, were pagan.
There was human sacrifice.
There was darkness.
What happened over time is there was influence by Christian men and women, believers, who brought the light and the love of Jesus Christ, infused it into cultural structures, and you saw something beautiful and brilliant happen.
You saw Christendom.
You saw the erection of hospitals, orphanages, universities, Everything that makes our tradition great came after the advent of Jesus Christ in our culture.
And I think if we turn our eyes to Australia, you see Bishop Mari Emmanuel.
He is not just proclaiming Christ, and he is a very vocal advocate and preacher for Jesus Christ, but he is also looking into the chaos, into the darkness, and he's calling out things like Vaccines.
He's calling out things like LGBT, LMNOP.
He's looking at the effect that Islam is having on Europe and in other parts of the world, and he's vocal about it.
And because of that, and he's not afraid, a man who was a Muslim, who said al-Akbar, walked down the center aisle of the church, pulled out a knife and attempted to jab him over and over in his face.
This means that darkness is in our face.
And Dr. Taylor Marshall, I've got to ask about that specific act because we actually have, and this has been, there were rumors about this when it first happened.
And as far as I can tell, this has been confirmed that it's been reported all over the place now.
That was a switchblade that was used.
The switchblade didn't open properly.
He was not able... I mean, that would have been a fatal attack.
It was intended to be a fatal attack.
It clearly would have been a fatal attack.
You could stab with a knife that many times close range.
You're done.
You're just done.
There's no coming back.
And that knife, not only did it not open fully, but it actually cut off the finger of the attacker himself.
I've never seen anything like this.
How could something like that happen?
You know, our Lord Jesus Christ says, live by the sword, die by the sword.
He tried to pull the weapon on this Bishop Mario Emanuel and the blade came back on him.
Now, Bishop Mario Emanuel is injured.
He did go to the hospital.
I think it's a miracle.
I think God's protection, however you want to call it, God's anointing was on that man, on that situation, And this is going to, you mentioned, you know, pushback from the right.
These events, by the way, are going to have people on our side say, hey, Jack, you know, hey, Taylor, you know, back off.
We don't want to get stabbed in the face.
Why don't we just appease our Mohammedan overlords?
Why don't we just appease the cultural innovators who are redefining nature, gender, Masculinity, femininity, marriage, everything under the sun.
Why don't we just keep appeasing them and then we won't get stabbed in the face?
What they don't understand is, is they cannot be appeased.
You know, Satan never says, okay, just give me part of your life and I'll leave you alone.
He's totalitarian.
He wants it all.
Satan doesn't just ask for part of your soul.
No.
That's right.
He doesn't say, you know, sell me 51%.
Right, right.
100%.
And so this is why Satan can never be appeased.
This is why darkness cannot be appeased.
And what's amazing is light is much more powerful than darkness.
We've all heard the cliche, you know, a candle scatters all that.
One little candle can scatter so much darkness.
That, we have to realize we are in a war.
Christianity, Old Testament, New Testament, from Adam and Eve and Noah and Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Esther, Judith, King David, all the way up to John the Baptist, our Lord and Savior Jesus all the way up to John the Baptist, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, There is...
I'm reading the book of Joshua right now.
It's about conquest.
It's about suffering.
It's about fighting.
It's about offering yourself to God even unto death, which is what the Son of God did, even death on a cross.
This is true religion, this is true faith, true Christianity, and to run away from it is to make the error of Judas Iscariot?
And also, hopefully, the era of Peter, where you deny him.
You think, you know, if I just deny Jesus, you know, the Romans and the high priest will leave me alone and I can get back together with Jesus.
And we have to stop.
We have to be vocal.
We have to be, as you say all the time, take up space.
No more appeasement while bishops are being stabbed at the altar.
We are Christians and we will be heard.
Right back, Jack Sovic, Taylor Martin.
Right back, Jack Sovic, Taylor Martin.
prefer it lies you have can't wait to get my hands on that book gonna dive into his pages take a closer look from the russian revolution jack was over back live great line from another great bishop people are turning away from christianity today
not because it is too hard but because it is too soft Fulton J. Sheen.
Dr. Taylor Marshall, one thing that I will say that actually gave me a lot of A lot of hope was when I saw that when Bishop Mario Emanuel was attacked horrifically in this brutal attack, and you said it, but Jesus Christ kept that blade shut.
Jesus Christ prevented that blade from coming out.
Those Australian Christians, they did not take it lying down.
They were storming out there, cross in hand, screaming, send him out!
Send him out!
And they weren't talking about the bishop.
No, no.
It's time for Christians to get active again.
It's time for Christians to get public again.
You must become active Christians.
And you've been preaching this for a long time.
Take up space.
Now, but I'm told, isn't that a leftist tactic?
And the National Review's got a huge editorial out.
We shouldn't fight like the left.
We shouldn't do those things.
We should put the, you know, the means don't justify the ends, blah, blah, blah, over and over and over again.
We should just shut up and take it.
Dr. Taylor-Marshall, why do they get so terrified of Christians wanting to exert themselves in the public square?
Let's flip that over.
Are we being like the left, or did the left steal what we've always done as Christians?
As Christians, from day one, you go back to the catacombs even, what do you find there?
You find crosses.
You find saints.
You find prayers.
You start finding that in public places.
Christians from day one, all over the empire, were taking up space.
You go to any major town center in Europe, and what is there?
A giant piazza with a huge cathedral out front, usually religious art of saints, of Jesus Christ, of the Blessed Virgin Mary, crosses everywhere.
We took up space because we were claiming the world for Jesus Christ, who is the King, the Lord, and the Savior.
He said, Go into all nations Teaching them all that I have commanded you and baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
The message of Jesus Christ is to all nations, not just to all hearts or all persons in your own privacy, but to all nations.
So Christianity is unique in that it proclaims outwardly with outward signs, beginning with the sacraments, but also with sacramentals, to the public space.
In the left, Satan has co-opted that.
And what have they done?
They've said, you can't have a cross there.
You can't have Ten Commandments there.
You can't have public prayer in that place.
But we can put up our rainbow icon.
We can put up our Baphomet.
We can put up our flags, our tokens, our symbols.
We can parade into the public library and the public square and push our agenda on you.
We're not trying to borrow from them.
They stole from us.
So we Christians have to take up space.
We used to have public processions.
We used to take up space in the public center, in the courts, In the town squares, in the religious festivals, in the turning of the seasons, we were present always.
You know, you go back and watch, like, Godfather 1, Godfather 2, and you kind of see this Italian Catholic culture.
It's everywhere.
It permeates everything, like water in a sponge.
That's what we Christians should be doing.
Again, we retreated because we were afraid.
That left a vacuum.
And now they're flying their flag everywhere and trying to push us in the holes.
So we must take up space for Jesus Christ, for God, and we must not try to appease them.
Right?
It's like a football game.
They're trying to take 10 yards and get a first down.
We're trying to take 10 yards and get a first down.
And whoever gets the most first downs and pushes that ball down the field is going to get a touchdown.
And that's how you win the game.
That's how you win the culture war.
Look, they have no problem.
They have no problem with Christians going in for Sunday for an hour, for two hours.
Go into your church.
Go in.
Say your prayers.
Repeat your incantations.
Go say them in Latin.
Say them in English.
Say them in Greek.
Whatever.
We don't care.
But don't bring that outside those doors.
Don't bring that out.
You know, there's an interesting rhetorical play you could make there on what happens behind closed doors and who used to be behind closed doors and who is now in public and who got shut back behind.
And by the way, when you talk to the left about this, they're totally open about it.
They know exactly what they did because they're the ones who did it.
The culture war began when God was pushed out of the public square.
And this is something where, and I'll shout out to my ortho bros, my Orthodox bros, people know my wife is Orthodox, that the Orthodox Church would never take this this way.
The Western Church, for whatever reason, has this whole like Oh, we got to go along to get along and we shouldn't, you know, we shouldn't, we got to be tolerant.
We got to be so tolerant.
Whereas you go to the Easterns and the Easterns are like tolerant.
What?
No, we're going to be Christian.
We should be Christian.
That's what we should do.
The problem, Dr. Taylor Marshall is not an, is not too much intolerance.
The problem is that we have too much tolerance.
That's right.
We wrongly believe that these people are goodwilled and rational.
And if we just give them a little space, they'll give us a little space.
It's almost like going back to the football analogy.
Let's let them have a couple first downs.
It'll feel good.
We're generous.
And you lose the game.
You have to realize that you are either with God Or against God, right?
There's two teams.
There's not a third team on the field and there will be a victor.
We know the victor is Jesus Christ.
What's his name?
Sorry, we just have a minute left, but I gotta, I gotta throw this in even, even Dawkins, even Dawkins is coming out now saying, well, I never expected us to get rid of all of Christianity.
I consider myself a cultural Christian.
You finally realize that your life's work has been a complete failure.
Even Richard Dawkins is admitting that new atheism is a complete failure because of the cultural ruin and decay that is spread in its Wait, the founder of the New Atheist Movement is saying this.
What more do you need, folks?
What more do you need?
And this is something, and I'll even credit to where it's due.
I got this from Dennis Prager, who's not a Christian, but Dennis Prager said, and I would change it just a little bit, but he said, you may not believe in God, but you need God.
You need God.
