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.
Christ is...
I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust...
The Canadian people finally realized this guy has no idea what he's doing, and unfortunately his legacy, and these are harsh words, but Canadians have lost 41% of their net worth during his tenure.
He will go down in history as the idiot king.
UFC president and CEO Dana White is joining Meta's board of directors.
I don't give anybody a leash.
Well, I'm saying you...
A leash?
So we built a lot of complex systems to moderate content.
But the problem with complex systems is they make mistakes.
Even if they accidentally censor just 1% of posts, that's millions of people.
And we've reached a point where it's just too many mistakes and too much censorship.
We're going to get rid of fact checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X starting in the U.S. President Biden announcing an executive order that permanently bans new offshore drilling along most of the U.S. coastline.
The executive order is drafted in a way that would make it harder for incoming President Trump to reverse.
I've been disappointed to see the Biden administration's attempt.
To block the reforms of the American people and that they voted for.
The incoming president is also doubling down on his goal to buy Greenland, saying in part, quote, I'm hearing that the people of Greenland are MAGA. Greenland is an incredible place and the people will benefit tremendously if and when it becomes part of our nation.
You were considering military force to acquire Panama and Greenland.
Are you also considering military force to annex and acquire Panama?
No, economic force, because Canada and the United States, that would really be something.
You get rid of that artificially drawn line and you take a look at what that looks like.
And it would also be much better for national security.
Don't forget, we basically protect Canada.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C.
Today is January 7th, 2025.
Anno Domini.
me.
Greenland, Panama, the Western Hemisphere.
Why is it that President Trump has put these front and center with Don Jr. traveling to Greenland early this morning with so many people talking about this all of a sudden with the Panama Canal sitting there being under control or certainly under the influence of the Chinese Communist Party?
It's very simple, folks.
It's something called the Mahanian theory of sea power.
If you understand this, you will understand the moves being made.
Mahan was a US Navy officer, and he was someone who operated in 19th, early 20th century, and he studied national power.
As pertains to sea power.
And he understood that a nation's power was directly controlled and defined over its ability to control the sea lanes of communication economically and also in terms of national security and defense.
And so what are the key sea lanes of communication, the sea lanes around the United States?
Well, prior to the Panama Canal, Ships, and including the US Navy, had to sail all the way around South America to go from New York to LA. It doesn't make any sense, does it?
So what would make sense?
Well, for hundreds of years, even going back to the Spanish Empire, there had been discussions about perhaps we could find a thin area of Latin America and carve some sort of canal to fix this problem.
It's all logistics.
But for hundreds of years, no European empire could figure this out until the United States of America came along and built the Panama Canal.
And it was stated that the Panama Canal would be owned by the United States in perpetuity until Jimmy Carter and the Democrats gave it back.
This is an issue that needs to be fixed.
Greenland, on the other hand, let's show that picture up the top.
Map break.
These are...
The potential northern sea routes.
Look at this.
You could travel overseas, potentially with the power of icebreakers and with the power of just a few more years of shifting in the north.
You could travel from Greenland all the way across to the Bering Strait and then all the way down to China and the Pacific.
This would completely alter the balance of power in the Pacific.
And thus, the entire world.
You didn't think Greenland was about the Pacific, but ladies and gentlemen, it certainly is.
Not only the resources, but also the sea lanes.
You think Russia and China don't understand that?
Believe me, they do.
And who else does?
President Donald J. Trump.
We'll be right back.
You know, you talk about influences.
These are influences and they're friends of mine, Jack Prasovic.
Where's Jack?
Jack, he's done a great job.
All right, folks, Jack Posobiec back live, Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C. Folks, did you know that seven banks failed in the last two years?
And your money has 20% less purchasing power than it did just four years ago.
Well, the Human Events audience knows to expect the unexpected, especially when it comes to the economy, which is exactly why we partnered with today's sponsor, Allegiance Gold.
See, Allegiance Gold has been the one commodity that stood strong for thousands of years.
Through wars, recessions, and financial collapses, gold has stood the test of time.
Because gold doesn't depend on Wall Street, politicians, or the value of paper money.
It's real, it's tangible, and it holds its value when everything else falls apart.
I partnered with Allegiance Gold because they can show you how to diversify your savings with gold and silver and protect what you have worked for so hard.
Go to protectwithposo.com and Allegiance Gold will give you So I want to throw that map back up of the Northern Sea Route potential that you can see up there.
And I really want people to understand this, but I also, and most importantly, want people To internalize this.
The Russians understand this.
The Chinese understand this.
You know who else does?
President Trump.
Look, Mahan understood that strategic geographic locations, like your choke points, like your straits, this is how you control maritime traffic.
And if you control maritime traffic, you control trade.
And if you control international trade, well, guess what?
You can control the entire world.
This is how the British Empire was built, based around these ideas.
The concentration of force around them.
Why do you think the Suez Canal matters so much?
Why do you think the Red Sea matters so much?
The Houthis right now, off of the Strait of Babel Mendeb, off of the Gulf of Oman, the Strait of Hormuz coming out of the Persian Gulf or the Arabian Gulf, depending on your flavor there, all the way down to the Straits of Malacca.
Why is Singapore a global power?
Because it sits on a straight.
Why did Hong Kong become an international power?
Because it sits right at the mouth of the Pearl River Delta.
Why did New York City become an international power the way it did?
Because it became the finance capital of where the Erie Canal met with the Hudson and where all the manufacturing of central...
The central cities, so the Midwest, was able to come out and then hit the Atlantic.
It's all about international trade.
If you control international trade, you control the choke points, you control the entire.
This is money.
This is wealth.
This is finance.
This is the corridors of real power.
And President Trump understands real power.
That's why he's focused on all of this.
That's, by the way, you think I'm like, oh, why does Mahan matter so much?
Well, guess what?
It was because of Mahan's writings that the Panama Canal was even built in the first place.
This is actually something that's very well known.
These theories were considered very Influential in the arms race for World War I, as well as the buildup of the Japanese Navy going into World War II. And of course, we saw how powerful Japan was by having an incredibly strong Navy.
Obviously, Japan is a very small nation, but through the power...
Of the Navy, they were able to do so.
And no, I am not biased just because I was in the Navy, but that is also one of the reasons that I joined the Navy in the first place was because this was how I viewed the world as well.
And it's clearly how President Trump is viewing this.
Here's a great question.
Do you know how much of international trade is conducted over the sea right now?
How much?
Guess what?
Over 90%.
How much of your communications do you think are conducted by undersea cables right now?
You know, okay, we know we have Starlink, we have all these satellites up there, so how many?
How many?
What's the percentage?
Again, over 95% are undersea cables.
It's all based on the ocean.
And so that's why if you really want to understand where money, where power, where goods, where everything else come through, you understand the power of control over your own sea lanes.
And there's no question, by the way, this is a huge reason that China wants control of Taiwan, because where does Taiwan sit?
Oh, right, right on the main sea lane between South Korea, Japan, the Strait of Malacca, and the rest.
If you understand maps, you can understand power.
It's really that simple.
And that's something that I've always tried to stress here.
I know we do, you know, the news of the day, but also it's just, you know, this is something that if you really want to understand how the world works, you need to understand your sea lanes and you need to understand your choke points.
If you know your choke points, you'll understand the importance of the world.
That's why the Houthis over there at the Red Sea right now are doing what they're doing.
Why?
Because the Red Sea is the choke point into Europe.
If Europe wants their...
Their oil from the Middle East, well, guess what?
It's got to come up through the Red Sea.
If they want their shipping from China, if they want all that, it's got to come up through the Red Sea.
But...
If the Northern Sea Route is built, then they don't need the Strait of Hormuz anymore or the Strait of Babel-Mandeb or the Red Sea or any of these things because they can go over the top.
That's why Greenland is important.
Not to mention, by the way, all of the potential resources that are sitting in Greenland and all the rest that are sitting in Canada.
Now, I do want to say a couple of things on that.
I threw a tweet up on X earlier today that just before the show was saying, look, you know, people are talking about, OK, does Trump really want Sir Trudeau's out?
And, you know, do we do we really want Canada to be the 51st state?
And I'm first to say, no, not interested.
The price is way too high.
It's it's not something it's and it's honestly it's just not something that it would make sense for the United States to.
We should be Canada's strongest trading partner, and we are Canada's strongest trading partner, but we also have to understand that the balance of trade needs to be necessary to make it across.
So whatever services that we can provide to Canada, what should Canada be providing us with?
That's right, natural resources, the abundant natural resources that exist in the Yukon, The oil that it's in Alberta, the shipping and the trade routes that are all available to us or potentially available to us, precious metals, etc., etc.
It all needs to come our way.
So that's what Canada is able to get.
uh is going to provide us and then we are going to in turn provide them with service as well as by the way a a nominal amount of military security because of course it makes sense to have a military relationship with canada because that protects us from over-the-top threats potentially from china japan russia or others Now, when it comes to Mexico, look, I mean, there's just not much there that we're really all that interested in.
But there is a huge security issue that we have with the cartels that are operating transnationally on both sides of the border.
So clearly, a limited military incursion or covert operations, special forces.
Opportunities.
Opportunities.
Activities could be used to take out those cartels, but I really think that's all about it.
Also, by the way, the Gulf of Mexico.
Now, no more Gulf of Mexico.
Gulf of America.
It will be the Gulf of America.
It always should have been the Gulf of America.
We are going to be rectifying.
That.
So Gulf of America, that's definitely something that's going to come in.
And people will say, well, wait a minute, wait a minute, Poso, but I thought you said that, you know, what about all this no overseas talk, no overseas?
This isn't overseas.
This is our backyard.
These are actual, direct...
These are direct impacts on our families, on my family, on your family.
This is how we can all live better and all increase a greater standard of living here within the United States.
And it doesn't include these wars of adventure overseas.
And by the way, you've heard me say today, I haven't said anything about war, I haven't said anything about this.
No, there's plenty of ways economically.
To make all of this happen.
You saw Don Jr. and some others went, traveled up to Greenland today.
He had a fantastic appearance down as well with the, you know, down as well in the Panama Canal.
There could be more issues, though.
Unfortunately, there could be some more issues with the Panama Canal.
And I do think with the Panama Canal situation, it might require a bit more, might require a bit more Leverage than just sending Don Jr. down there to get the Panamanians on board.
But that's okay.
That's okay because Pete Hegseth and others have lots of ways to put leverage on the Panamanians to make sure that the control of the canal is conducted properly.
And of course, we'll be making sure that we do that.
I mean, keep in mind, I just want to double check and...
Producer Foz, Producer Russ, if you guys can check with me, maybe ask Rock.
I don't know.
How many aircraft carriers does Panama have in their Navy?
How many is it again?
Is it, is it, is it, because we have 12 at any given time, so certainly have two active aircraft carriers we could park on either end of it.
So I just want to double check.
Panama, I think, on top of my head, is it, was it 3, 4, 0?
Zero aircraft carriers.
Okay, got it, right.
And they folded in about a week's time, the last time the U.S. invaded.
Not too long ago, just a couple decades ago.
So, you know, just throwing that out there.
Throwing that out there.
Also, I did spend a little bit of time working on something earlier today.
This was information that had been given to me from a very high-level source.
And yes, folks.
Mar-a-Lago North is coming and Mar-a-Lago North is absolutely going to be stunning.
Yeah, I don't know.
We're going to need some more ski lifts.
I do think that we need ski lifts as well because it's going to be a resort.
It's not just a castle.
Of course, you know, the power crystal is up there.
And we've got the guards on their snowmobiles.
We've got the airship, got their polar bear escorts.
But what we're going to really need are those ski lifts, especially down the frozen waterfall.
I think that's going to be fantastic.
So there's a lot to look at, folks.
Look, at the end of the day, it's about...
Actually benefiting the American people.
If we can get the trade picture right, and in addition to all of this, by the way, it's going to be Dr. Peter Navarro and his understanding of the balance of trade.
If we control this, and if we can fix this, and if we can really reset the balance of trade, then we are going to be able to absolutely deliver incredible, incredible change for the American people.
Right back, Human Events Daily.
*Music* I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
All right, Jack Posobiec, back live.
Human Events daily here, Washington, D.C. So, folks, we're in crunch time right now.
The Trump administration will be sworn in by the end of the month.
But as tremendous as that is, that also means that our enemies have plenty of time left to stir up trouble.
That can mean a cyberattack, an invasion, or, God forbid, a nuclear strike.
So until the long-time bureaucracies and bureaucrats are out of Washington, I'm not taking any chances.
I'm staying frosty.
And you need to stay frosty, too.
And that's why I have an emergency food supply from MyPatriotSupply.
Right now, they're offering $100 off their three-month emergency food kit.
It's got 2,000 calories a day for three whole months.
It's plenty to get you through even a prolonged emergency.
And by the way, right here in the D.C. area, we just got hit with, depending on where you're at, 8 to 11 inches of snow.
Guess what?
I went down to the supermarket yesterday, and the bread was out of the aisle.
The eggs weren't coming in.
All of the stuff was creaking.
And you know what?
It was a great day to that I was thinking, you know, I'm super happy that we've got our MyPatriotSupply just in case.
Winter is here.
Folks, all their food kits last up to 25 years in storage, plus they come in rugged, weatherproof buckets.
You go to MyPatriotSupply.com right now and you can order your three-month emergency food kit.
Now, I've got an emergency food supply.
I was just talking about this in my home because my safety and my family's safety and our food security are worth it.
Go to MyPatriotSupply.com to order your three-month emergency food kit now.
MyPatriotSupply.com.
You know, when it really comes down to the economic model of these things, that's why it shows you the difference between President Trump's and his way of thinking and really the MAGA movement's way of thinking as opposed to just all of these other...
2005-style establishment Republicans that sit out there and they say, oh, well, you know, America's great because we're winning the war in the Middle East or we're going to go help the Taliban.
You know, there's even people right now arguing that we should go back to Afghanistan.
And they're saying, oh, we need to go back to Afghanistan to go fight the Taliban some more.
It's like, I feel like there's people in some of these communities out there that just get so absolutely like...
Look, they've been fighting one war for so long that the minute that it turns off and you realized that, you know, it turns out that we probably didn't have to do that.
We probably didn't have to spend that much time and treasure and people there that they can't turn it off.
They tell themselves, we know better and nobody else understands what the way to do this.
No, you want to keep America safe.
It's very simple, by the way.
It's very simple.
Number one.
Economic and national security, in terms of what we just talked about here, the sea lanes of communication, your choke points, and then making sure that you have a strong military to defend yourselves and also defend those choke points that are within your influence that are so important to you, particularly those in the Western Hemisphere.
That's the Monroe Doctrine.
Why have we abandoned the Monroe Doctrine?
It's ridiculous, by the way.
It's absolutely ridiculous and asinine.
Every great power around the world...
Holds to whatever their version of the Monroe Doctrine is.
Except us.
Except us for some reason.
Why do the cartels matter?
Because they're on our border.
Why does Greenland matter?
Because it's right next to our border.
Why does the Panama Canal matter?
Because it allows us to connect from one coast to the other coast.
It's simple.
It's basic logistics.
And then the other piece of this is simple.
We're talking about the flow of goods, the flow of armaments around our nation.
But what about the flow of people?
And so suddenly you're going to sit there and say, oh, hold on, hold on.
We've got these terrorists.
So where did the terrorists come from?
Oh, they brought their ideology in from the Middle East or they brought it in from some other part of the world.
They're here.
Guess what?
All of the hijackers on 9-11 were legal immigrants, quote-unquote.
They were here in a legal status.
They had travel visas.
Some even had student visas.
Then you got situations where people bring in their imported ideology, like this guy down in New Orleans, the Bourbon Street Massacre, which no one is talking about anymore.
And those guys will go and do these things, even though the guy himself was a U.S. citizen.
So guess what?
Crazy sound, I know.
What if instead of going to war overseas and conducting this policy of invade the world, invite the world, and having open borders, that we actually just have strict immigration to the United States?
And if we have strict immigration to the United States, then we won't have to worry about any of these things.
And we won't have to worry about these Rotherham-style grooming gangs, these child rape gangs that were going on in the UK and all the rest of it, because we're actually putting the security and interest.
Someone who's intimately knowledgeable about all of this, of course, from Revolver News joins us now, and his name is Darren Beattie.
Darren, how are you?
Guys, I think we're having some audio tricks right there with Darren.
I can see him.
I can see the lips moving, but I cannot hear him.
Can you hear me?
Oh, Darren, wait.
There we go.
There it is.
There we go.
Great.
Darren, so what I was talking about was this basic idea of people have this backwards theory that we should be scared of American power or scared of using power.
To benefit our own people and that the monodoctrine and manifest destiny and these ideas are outmoded and outdated and ridiculous and, you know, probably racist too, if you can, you know, even though I think most Greenlanders are, you know, either Danish or I guess Inuit.
So, you know, this idea is kind of silly, though, because we really are the only great power that doesn't follow these basic building blocks of a great power nation.
And that's why I think That when President Trump is talking about Greenland and talking about the Panama Canal and restructuring, obviously using threats of tariffs and other things about the threat of annexation of Canada to bring them in line, I mean, this is just how a great power used to act prior to the globalist era.
Right.
There's certainly nothing objectionable about projecting our influence in any way that redounds to the benefit of the United States.
I think the critical metric, which is a general one, but always important sort of guiding principle, is what we discussed in our earlier strategy session.
Namely, we should maximize American power subject to the condition that American power also redounds to the benefit of the American people.
And I think that's one of the reasons that I think a lot of people will criticize the exercise of American power as such when really the problem is the connection between American power or the connection between the interests and the successes of the major sort of institutional stakeholders in America have become increasingly divorced from the well
-being of actual American citizens.
And so I think the critical principle of America First is to re-establish that connection such that the victories of the American empire, the victories of American power are also and principally The victories of the American people as well.
Well, I think that's exactly right.
And it's funny, too, because, you know, Darren, nobody says that there's any issue of the...
Well...
You know, it's funny.
People say, well, there's no issue of the United States operating in the Red Sea or the United States operating in the Persian Gulf.
But all of a sudden, when President Trump says, oh, well, what about the Gulf of Mexico?
What about the Caribbean?
What about the Panama Canal?
What about Greenland?
Suddenly, Democrats are like jumping all over themselves to say, oh, well, we can't do any of that.
I mean, it's amazing how so many people on both sides, I guess, Yeah, I think that's correct.
To the extent that I see it, again, I think people have responded to the disconnect between the victories of American power.
The supremacy of America geopolitically, the disconnect between that and standard of living conditions for American citizens, well-being of American workers and middle class.
Those two things being divorced, I think, has encouraged criticism of American power as such, whether it be projected overseas.
Or projected in our own hemisphere, which obviously makes a lot more sense.
But in either case, I think there's almost a knee-jerk criticism that results from this sense that the victories of America geopolitically, the victories of American empire...
Are not the victories of the American people.
And so the critical principle going forward, the critical principle of America first, has to be to re-establish that connection so the American people know that they're going to be benefiting.
And these actions aren't simply lining the pocket of various stakeholder interests who have expressed very little but hostility toward the American people.
And it's really as simple as that.
So we're talking about ways to actually improve the standard of living of the American people.
And by the way, that doesn't just mean, you know...
Big screen Chinese TVs in every room in your house.
And I remember there was a certain conservative commentator who kept trying to say, well, we need globalism because that's how we get our cheap TVs.
And big screen TVs came down in price.
And it's like, yeah, but look at the impact on wages.
Look at the impact on home buying.
Look at the fact that I had a guy in a Twitter space not long ago.
And he was a nice enough guy, but he was telling me that he'd...
Fired all the Americans that worked for him so he could bring in immigrants.
And I said, well, don't you think that's going to slash wages?
And he said, well, I pay him the same wages.
And I said, yeah, you probably paid them very low compared to an actual increase in working class wages.
And working class wages have absolutely stagnated since the 1970s, which, oh, by the way, coincides with the start of the globalist era in American politics.
That's when the FDI relationship, the foreign direct investment with China began.
And that's prior to China getting this most favored nation status with the World Trade Organization, which, by the way, used to be something that the left and even Antifa were against all the way back to the Battle of Seattle in 2001.
Stay tuned.
Be right back here with Darren Dini.
Jack wins Jack.
Where's Jack?
Where is he?
Jack, I want to see you.
Great job, Jack.
Thank you.
What a job you do.
You know, we have an incredible thing.
We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the guys who should be getting Pulisic.
All right, Jack Posobiec back here, live human events daily, Washington, D.C. Darren.
Before we change subjects here, let me ask you just a basic question.
This idea of controlling your shipping lanes, of controlling your sea lanes, how this creates so much importance for a nation's wealth.
The idea is really what led to the building of the Panama Canal in the first place.
How is it that we got so far down this globalist-era path away from these basic ideas of power, these basic ideas of control and influence, and how to benefit our own people?
Other than our program, I'm not even sure anyone else who even understands why any of this is important that's out there today.
Yeah, it's a great question.
Been a variety of factors.
It's not for lack of interest in overseas commitments.
I mean, I think if anything, we've been almost too interested in various overseas commitments.
It's simply how far overseas and what the nature of the commitments are.
I think economic commitments within our own immediate hemispheric sphere of influence.
That makes eminent sense, and so I'm very encouraged by the fact that a major goal of Trump's second term seems to be to re-establish American supremacy and American interests in the broader hemisphere.
And it's really as simple as that.
I mean, imagine being a great power and not controlling your own sea lanes, not controlling these vast...
Areas of resources in your own backyard, the way that Russia gained its power from exploiting Siberia.
That's where they found these vast oil resources as well as the rare earth elements.
So guess what?
We've got the Yukon right there.
We've got Greenland right there.
And of course, when Russia is looking at the Black Sea, when Russia is looking at these other various areas where they want to where they want to exert their control, they do so because it is geostrategically important for the interests.
Of Russia.
And certainly, we should all understand that.
But it seems like we're the only country that doesn't actually operate in that way.
And it will...
It will just be hilarious to me for so long, especially when we've lived in D.C. And when I got to D.C., it was a time where people were just still talking about, oh, the importance of Iraq.
Iraq is so important, the geostrategic importance of Iraq to us all.
And now you walk around D.C. and I don't even think you could find anyone on either side of the aisle that could tell you off the top of their head who the prime minister of Iraq is.
Now, that said, President Trump did, switching gears here a little bit, did hold a massive and really just barnburn of a press conference down at Mar-a-Lago today.
And there was an interesting topic that he brought up in response to something that he was asked.
He was asked a question about JN Sixers, and he himself went to a different spot.
Where do you think he went?
Let's play the clip now.
Why didn't they find the bomber, the pipe bomber?
You know, they know who the pipe bomber is.
The FBI knows who it is.
The status of the FBI has gone down so far.
And the status of the DOJ, or as I call it, the Department of Justice, it's the Department of Injustice, being laughed at all over the world.
And hopefully with Pam Bondi and with Kash Patel and with other people that we're putting in, that will all come back.
What's your response there?
Well, obviously, I'm thrilled to see this.
You know, Trump has been revolver-pilled on January 6th for quite some time.
I talked about it with him in our interview, which got a tremendous amount of views and attention.
He's separately cited the case of Ray Epps on multiple occasions in rallies and otherwise.
He's even gone deep enough into the lore.
To mention the scaffold commander on occasion.
But this, to my knowledge, is the first time that President Trump has publicly addressed the pipe bomb scandal.
And we've been on this for three and a half years now.
And I think the spin he said is really important.
He said the FBI knows who it is.
The overwhelming weight of evidence suggests that that's true.
There was a report released by the House Ad Committee just a few days ago by Loudermilk, and Thomas Massey had a big role in it, and it basically substantiates everything that people have been reading Revolver.News on this topic.
Most of the major pillars of our reporting is confirmed directly with some additional interesting information.
Two bits of critical information I want to convey to your listeners here.
One is, it's very clear the FBI actually conducted a legitimate investigation early on in the first few months.
They're interviewing a ton of people.
Getting data.
They were developing a bunch of leads.
Everything that you see would be consistent with a real investigation, put it that way.
But then something weird happened.
Basically, as early as May of 2021, May of 2021, the investigation went dark.
It simply stopped.
Everything stopped.
All of these things that looked like promising leads, Done.
And, you know, this is consistent with something I reported on that I found to be remarkable when I first learned of it.
There was another agency investigating the pipe bomb story.
And this was early 2022. That agency needed to see surveillance footage of the pipe bomb location on January 6th.
The agency people there...
Did not go to the FBI. They had to go to the DNC to review this footage, indicating that the FBI simply didn't have it at that point.
Now, at early 2022, for the FBI not to have surveillance footage of On January 6th at the pipe bomb location is simply remarkable, and the only conclusion from that is that it was a dead investigation then.
But now we can see from the report that basically all the leads dropped as early as May of 2021, after which point it's been nothing.
And they go through these kind of half-hearted gestures of saying, oh, we're going to release a little bit of footage here or there.
It's been a dead investigation since...
Spring of 2021. Why?
Well, again, I think the most reasonable conclusion here is precisely the one that Trump drew explicitly today in his press conference, and that is the FBI investigated.
In spring of 2021, they found out what happened, and the truth of what happened was so profoundly embarrassing to the regime, so profoundly embarrassing, and in all likelihood incriminating.
To the regime, to various agencies and people associated with the regime, that it went from investigation very quickly to cover-up.
And this is a cover-up that involves not only the FBI, but as we've reported extensively, the Secret Service, the Capitol Police, the ATF, and so forth.
And so I think there were other agencies involved in the operation.
The FBI found out what was really going on and proceeded to cover up.
They know who it is.
We can get to the bottom of it as soon as Kash Patel becomes FBI director.
We've done 95% of the work.
The additional 5%, that's up to Director Patel to do, hopefully starting on day one.
Man, I just love it.
Director Patel, day one.
You know, I almost wonder if he could bring in some independent investigators or appoint a task force.
To look into this and January 6th and potentially some other things that have been going on, maybe some independent auditors.
You know, we know the Doge apparatus, I guess, is going to be still there with Vivek Ramaswamy, with Elon Musk, even though, of course, we haven't been hearing too much about it lately.
But perhaps other elements of Doge could include investigatory powers and giving those appointees the ability to To investigate things that actually went on within these organizations and then decide whether or not they should be able to keep their budgets unless specific changes are made.
I'm just saying, I'm just shooting from the hip here, folks.

We'll be right back.
Jack is a great guy.
He's written a fantastic book.
Everybody's talking about it.
Go get it.
And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.
And we're going to turn it around and make our country great to get to you.
Amen. - All right, we're back here.
Jack Posobiec, Human Events Daily.
We've been talking about changes that President Trump is making to our government, but there's also a big change that went on, and we didn't have him on yesterday, but Darren, I just gotta say, man, That January 6th was yesterday, the commemoration, really, for that day.
And I just have to say that you, of all people, were central to the shift in the narrative after the events of January 6th, 2021, to poke That perfect hole.
You found that perfect hole, that tiny little hole in the mainstream media's narrative at a time when so many other people were terrified to speak out, when everybody thought that Trump was done.
You found a piece that you just kept pulling on.
And pulling and pulling and pulling and eventually unraveled the entire narrative to the point where January 6th just came and went.
And you know what?
At least half the people in the country just celebrated January 6th.
And without doing what you...
What you did, along with Tucker, and we had Julie Kelly on yesterday, you know, I really think that people would not have viewed January 6th in the Fed-surrection in that way possible, and that made a huge shift, which changed the course of history because it gave President Trump not...
It took away the shame of January 6th, and it actually turned it into the cause of the Jan Sixers.
And so kudos to you, man, for doing what you did and the work on the Pipe Bomber and so many others.
I was getting into another video with Still Boneless on Fence Cutter Bulwark and really just so many of the other individuals that have never been explained or identified from that day.
Yeah, well, first of all, thanks so much for that.
I'm very, very proud of it.
And, you know, all of this that we've achieved has come very far.
Again, I think we've gotten 95%.
And these are the kinds of things that...
People don't really expect an ultimate resolution.
People think, oh, these just kind of things, yeah, we've gotten to the point where any reasonable person can look at it and say it's a hoax, it's a fedsurrection, but there's some critical things like what exactly happened, who exactly orchestrated it, what exactly went on, and who are precisely the people we can hold accountable.
To this date, I've only...
...advanced one name that I have utter confidence as part of the cover-up, and that was Ashen Benedict, also briefly mentioned in the Ladermick Report as someone who's been on Cooperative.
Surprise, surprise.
But he currently...
Is the head of Intelligence and Dignitary Protection at the Capitol.
I'm very cautious about naming names for a variety of reasons, and I'm comfortable naming him.
But I'm also very comfortable in saying he's not the only person.
For that additional 5%, we can hand it to Director Patel on a silver platter.
Say, Director Patel, please, let's get that additional 5%.
Let's get the full truth out there.
Cluing all the names, cluing the chain of custody of the surveillance footage at the DNC. Let's blow this thing wide open because the pipe bomb thing doesn't stop at the pipe bomb.
The pipe bombs were conveniently discovered independently within a 15-minute time frame, perfectly coinciding with that very Ray Epps orchestrated breach on the Capitol.
That synchronicity means...
That the entire thing, from the Ray Epps orchestrated breach to the pipe bomb, they're connected as part of a broader operation.
And we know that all of these agencies, FBI, Secret Service, Capitol Police, ATF, are...
All implicated in this, possibly going up to Kamala Harris, whose security detail clearly knew in advance that the bomb posed no threat.
So this is sitting on top of one of the biggest scandals in recent American history.
We're so close and we're very much in a position to blow it open and completely vindicate all of the J6 prisoners and really the millions and millions and millions of Trump supporters who have been cast as potential domestic terrorists.
On account of this utterly false and malicious lie of the January 6th insurrection.
And so there's a reason they came at us so hard.
The regime, the crooks, the filth, the criminals, the trash.
And the regime have invested so much in this lie, shoving it down our throats every day for nearly four years.
It's time we get the full truth and we shove it down their throats and hold them accountable and set the nation and its institutions on the path toward restoration of legitimacy.
That's what we need.
We can't be a successful country.
If our institutions are not legitimate.
So I think it's really critical and I'm really confident and hopeful that Director Patel will take up this mantle when he is named and confirmed as the FBI director.
You know, there's so many ways to go through and look at this, but In one of the ways that we've described in our book last year, Unhumans, was that this was always a strategy.
This was always a strategy to criminalize To make support for conservative causes, support for Trump.
And it was also used in a way that you and I have discussed, Darren, to try to excise Trump himself from the MAGA movement, saying we can get a new Trump.
We can get a better Trump.
We can have Trumpism without Trump.
We can run on the issues without him.
And no, just be completely ridiculous.
Guys, I think I just lost Darren's audio again there.
Wait, Darren, do we have you back?
I'm here.
Can you hear me?
Yeah, I can.
Yeah, I couldn't hear your last.
Can you repeat that?
I was just saying, Trumpism without Trump.
How quaint that sounds now.
I remember not too long ago, that was the big cause of the day.
That was the big...
Refrain.
Trump isn't without Trump.
I can't tell you how many times I heard from supposedly sophisticated, supposedly informed people as recently as a year, year and a half ago.
Oh, Trump's done.
It's all done.
He's going to jail.
He's going to be a felon.
People are going to care.
Nobody cared.
They invested so much energy in this.
And because people know it's a lie and they know these institutions are illegitimate, it just enhanced Trump's legitimacy to be condemned.
We're running low on time.
