| The Poso 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. | |
| Christ is King! | |
| It's the first time we've heard from Pope Francis since he was hospitalized. | |
| But, of course, it's also a reflection of the toll that this illness has taken on him. | |
| You can hear the frailty in his voice after spending three weeks in the hospital for what started out as a bad case of bronchitis and has since devolved into double pneumonia. | |
| This morning, President Trump with a dizzying reversal, allowing Mexico and Canada to avoid 25% tariffs on many goods just days after imposing them. | |
| According to the White House, about half of imports from Mexico and only 38% of goods from Canada qualify for the pause, including auto parts and most produce. | |
| Look, our country's been ripped off by everybody. | |
| That stops now. | |
| Hamas is responding to President Trump's latest threats. | |
| He called on the militant group to immediately release all remaining hostages being held in Gaza or, quote, it's over for you. | |
| We're doing very well with Russia. | |
| that But right now, they're bombing the hell out of Ukraine. | |
| I'm finding it more difficult, frankly, to deal with Ukraine. | |
| And they don't have the cards. | |
| They don't have the cards. | |
| As you know, we're meeting in Saudi Arabia sometime next week, early. | |
| And we're talking... | |
| I find that in terms of getting a final settlement, it may be easier dealing with Russia, which is surprising because they have all the cards. | |
| I mean, and they're bombing the hell out of them right now. | |
| Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, live Washington, D.C. Today is March 7th, 2025. | |
| Anno Domini. | |
| Got to respond to this new column claiming that MAGA is wrong on Ukraine from Douglas Murray. | |
| And Douglas, Douglas, Douglas, Douglas, I... Read your column, the one where you're taking the swing at us, and I gotta say, you lost the plot, mate. | |
| You claim MAGA is wrong on Ukraine because we've never been there, never seen the stakes up close. | |
| Well, let me set the record straight. | |
| I've been to Ukraine multiple times before the war, during the war. | |
| I've walked the streets of Kiev. | |
| There were missiles in the air when we arrived. | |
| I've been to the presidential complex with Zelensky himself, alongside Scott Besson, talking strategy, seeing the chaos firsthand. | |
| So we don't need a lecture about where we've been, where we haven't been. | |
| We've been there. | |
| But we can also see the videos from there writ large. | |
| And here's the thing. | |
| The world that you seem to be talking about doesn't exist anymore. | |
| There's this fantasy. | |
| Of an Anglo-American-led global order where some noble chessboard where London and Washington move the pieces and everyone just kind of nods along. | |
| Well, that era is dead and it's been bleeding out since Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, all the endless wars that all of the neocon buddies cheered for. | |
| Trump sees this. | |
| MAGA sees this. | |
| MAGA was the choice of the American people writ large, the popular vote. | |
| The future isn't about imposing some grand universal system. | |
| It's about nation states putting their own people first. | |
| America first. | |
| That's the doctrine. | |
| And so you may scoff at Trump wanting some peace in Ukraine like it's a naive betrayal of the Atlanticist dreams. | |
| But what's naive is thinking that we can keep boring billions and hundreds of billions of dollars into a meat grinder halfway around the world while our own borders a sieve, our cities are crumbling. | |
| Trump is right. | |
| Peace isn't weakness. | |
| Peace is strength. | |
| It's sanity. | |
| People have seen the war up close. | |
| The kids in the bomb shelters, the towns reduced to rumble. | |
| You think Zelensky wants that forever? | |
| No, he'd take the deal if the West stop using him as a battering ram against Moscow. | |
| MAGA isn't isolationist. | |
| Doug, it's realist. | |
| We're done playing world police for an order that's already collapsed. | |
| You call it wrong to step back. | |
| What's wrong is pretending that we can rewind to 1991. Trump is not abandoning Ukraine. | |
| He's abandoning the delusion that it's America's job to fix every mess on Earth. | |
| You, Doug, wrote an incredible book about the decline of the West, but now we are acting on it. | |
| Come back to reality. | |
| The empire's over, nation-states are what's left, and America is finally choosing itself. | |
| We'll be right back from Events Dale. | |
| Welcome to the second American Revolution! | |
| All right, Jack, here we are back live, Human Events Daily. | |
| You're looking at a shot of the National Mall. | |
| Not quite as windy as it was yesterday. | |
| The sun is out and shining. | |
| I spent some time outside in the sun today getting my vitamin D. Make sure you do so as well. | |
| But someone who gets plenty of vitamin D because he lives in the Sunshine State is the great Roger Stone, who joins us now. | |
| Roger, how are you? | |
| Jack, great to be back with you. | |
| So, Roger, we had Congressman Byron Donalds here on the program yesterday, and he was giving us a real preview of some of the issues that he intends to use in his run in this new primary where he's already received the endorsement of President Trump for the Florida governor's race. | |
| But, Roger, I'm sure, just like any of these other primaries in a red state like this, you're going to have other people get involved. | |
| You're going to have other big-name candidates who want to get in as well, even in the face, potentially, of... | |
| This Trump endorsement. | |
| So, Roger, if you could handicap for us the gubernatorial race of Florida for 2026. Sure. | |
| First of all, I'm a strong supporter of Byron Donalds. | |
| I think he's been a great congressman, a great supporter of the America First agenda. | |
| He's a true fighter. | |
| As I predicted well over two years ago, the governor's wife, Casey DeSantis, has announced that she is seriously considering a race. | |
| This is really because, first of all, Ron DeSantis is term limited. | |
| He can only serve two terms, so he'll be out of office at the end of 2026. And yes, he wants to run for president again in 2028, although I don't think he could beat J.D. Vance, or if J.D. Vance chose not to run, I don't think he could beat anyone for that matter. | |
| But in this particular case, this is shaping up as a proxy fight. | |
| While Governor DeSantis and his wife were on their way to Washington to ask the president to remain neutral in the primary, I can think of no reason, given DeSantis' betrayal of Trump in the presidential campaign, why he would do that, the president actually tweeted a warm endorsement of Byron Donalds. | |
| Now, a word of caution, the early polls will show Casey DeSantis far ahead because she has superior name ID, simply based on People's knowledge of her governor, her husband, the governor. | |
| By the way, Adam Putnam was far, far ahead of Ron DeSantis until governor, or pardon me, gubernatorial candidate DeSantis was endorsed by Donald Trump. | |
| And then he took off like a rocket. | |
| So the Trump endorsement, particularly in the Sunshine State, this is the gold standard. | |
| And I would imagine before it's over the Trump That Trump will actually stump for Byron Donald. | |
| Even here in the Sunshine State, where Governor DeSantis remains relatively popular, he's not as popular as the president. | |
| And frankly, the DeSantis candidacy offended a lot of MAGA voters, the fact that it took a lot of money from neocons and from the establishment. | |
| But the cheapest shot here, Jack, was when Byron made it clear he was running for governor and the president endorsed him. | |
| Governor DeSantis criticized Byron Donald for missing votes in Congress when he was out campaigning for President Trump in 2024, which is ironic because Ron DeSantis missed a record number of votes while he himself was running for governor. | |
| And this is really something that I think anyone can say in politics, that, of course, there's always going to be votes on the table. | |
| There's always going to be jobs that can be done. | |
| Of course, we know exactly where Byron Donalds was. | |
| Byron Donalds, by the way, didn't make a... | |
| I didn't try to hide where he was. | |
| He was in the streets of Philadelphia. | |
| He was going up to Detroit. | |
| He was working the cities for President Trump throughout 2024. In fact, he made a great showing of it. | |
| And a lot of those videos coming from the Philadelphia area myself that really had a fantastic impact in swinging the state for President Trump. | |
| He's shown an ability to be able to go into those neighborhoods. | |
| To reach out to those types of voters. | |
| And, of course, this all is presaged. | |
| People forget, by the way, that the first Trump post-rally pizza stop was, in fact, with Byron Donald and his son. | |
| They went for a round of pizzas after his event, and it became a sort of perennial tradition along the Trump campaign thereafter to go out and get food at a local establishment after a rally. | |
| But it was actually Byron Donald. | |
| And I want to say either it was either Fort Myers or Sarasota where they did the first one. | |
| And so, Roger, this is a case, I think, where you're exactly right that a lot of the moves we're seeing right now are also directly tied to a potential 2028 primary. | |
| And I believe Florida politics had a poll out earlier today that said if it were held today that in the state of Florida... | |
| J.D. Vance would best Governor DeSantis by 14 points in Florida alone. | |
| So it really seems to me like a lot of this is a proxy fight, the Tallahassee fight, for the potential 2028 primary, which in many ways has already begun. | |
| Yeah, for people who don't live in Florida, they may not remember the background, but Ron DeSantis was a rather undistinguished three-term congressman. | |
| He says, by the way, that Byron Donalds is not qualified to be governor, but... | |
| Donald has been in the House the same three terms that DeSantis was in the House when he ran for governor. | |
| Iran was running at about 8%. | |
| Adam Putnam, the favorite, endorsed by every single Republican county chairman, every single Republican state legislator in both the House and the Senate, every member of the congressional delegation who was a Republican, with the exception of Matt Gaetz. | |
| He was leading 53 to 8. Then President Trump... | |
| With a simple tweeted endorsement, broke that race open. | |
| DeSantis took off like a rocket to win the nomination handily. | |
| But then President Trump still had to visit Florida three times in the last two weeks to literally drag DeSantis over the finish line. | |
| So a lot of Trump supporters here in the Sunshine State are asking, you know, where is the loyalty? | |
| I mean, Ron DeSantis would be managing a McDonald's today were it not for Donald Trump. | |
| And the real question, the reason I think he's talking about running his wife for governor is for the fulcrum of fundraising that that would provide, because no one gives to Ron DeSantis because they like him. | |
| People give to him because either he was the neocon alternative to Donald Trump or because they have to, taking a huge amount of money from lobbyists and special interests here in Florida. | |
| Well, so, Roger, then, if that is the case, then... | |
| Does it seem or do you see the signs, the tea leaves already, for a potential use of Casey DeSantis' candidacy for governor as a potential springboard for Governor DeSantis to then run in the primary for 2028? | |
| Well, I think that is what he's hoping, but they really need it as an ability to raise money. | |
| If they're both out of office between 26 and 2028, raising the hundreds of millions of dollars you need for a presidential campaign is almost impossible. | |
| Ron DeSantis, between PACS and his campaign, where he had an extraordinary amount of coordination that many experienced. | |
| Operatives think was illegal. | |
| He spent $300 million. | |
| The current attorney general was his chief of staff, who has announced that he's investigating Andrew and Tristan Tate. | |
| He was actually making fundraising calls from the executive office of the governor. | |
| That's a felony. | |
| Also doing fundraisers in the governor's mansion, also quite illegal. | |
| This is really all about money and 2028. Ron also has the alternative of running for the U.S. Senate. | |
| He appointed Ashley Moody, the state attorney general, to the vacancy created by the resignation of Marco Rubio. | |
| People assume that she's going to run again, but we don't know that. | |
| It is possible that if Ron doesn't think Casey can make it, because up against the Trump juggernaut, I don't think she can. | |
| He could run for the Senate as a way to keep his presidential aspirations alive. | |
| But Jack, senators can't raise the kind of money that governors can or that a governor's wife can if she's governor, which is, I think, the principal reason she's talking about running. | |
| What her qualifications to be governor are is a little hard to put your finger on. | |
| Yes, she's done great charitable work. | |
| We applaud her for that. | |
| But prior to that, she was a newscaster. | |
| To say that she's less experienced than Byron Donalds, well, that's absurd. | |
| Folks, we'll be right back with Roger Stone. | |
| Quick break here. | |
| Real America's voice. | |
| Hour three also of the Charlie Kirk program on the Salem Radio Network on the iconic Roger Stone. | |
| Today, you know, they talk about influencers. | |
| These are influencers and they're friends of mine. | |
| Jack. | |
| Jack Posobiec. | |
| Where's Jack? | |
| Jack? | |
| He's done a great job. | |
| Jack Posobiec, here we are back, Human Events Daily. | |
| We're on with legendary political strategist Roger Stone. | |
| Now, Roger, we're about one week away, just about, I think around this time, one week ago, is when President Trump was giving Zelensky the boot from the Oval Office. | |
| First of all, Roger, I've got to ask, in all your years in politics, have you ever seen something like this at a presidential level right there in the oval? | |
| And secondly, what do you think were some of the influences on Zelensky that led him to disrespect the People's House in such a way? | |
| Well, it was interesting to see Susan Rice, the former National Security Advisor to Joe Biden and also to Barack Obama, say that the meeting was a setup. | |
| She's right about that, but it was Zelensky who was trying to set up Trump. | |
| There are credible reports that Zelensky met or spoke with former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, former Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, the architect of the disaster in Ukraine, as well as Susan Rice and Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman, as well as Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut, who talked about it on his X feed. | |
| Now, if they urged him To not to take a peace deal or not to sign an agreement regarding minerals, that is a serious violation of the Logan Act. | |
| The Logan Act specifically says that private citizens cannot have their own foreign policy, that only the president can conduct foreign policy. | |
| And contacting foreign leaders to urge them to undertake any course other than that that is the official policy of the United States is a serious crime. | |
| You may remember Joe Biden. | |
| Wanted to jack up General Flynn, claiming that his conversations, when he was named national security adviser with the ambassador to Russia, violated the Logan Act. | |
| They didn't because Flynn didn't... | |
| Propose any specific course of action, as we now know. | |
| Back during the Vietnam War, when there were claims that after LBJ called for a bombing halt, that Nixon had passed word through an intermediary to the South Vietnamese, urging them not to go to the peace table prior to the election. | |
| That turned out not to be true, according to historian Luke Nictor. | |
| But it was widely believed, and the left went completely insane, that it was Treason and that Nixon should have been prosecuted. | |
| So, once again, you have the double standard. | |
| This is something I think Kash Patel should investigate. | |
| And if they did, in fact, get Wes Galinsky and urge him not to cooperate with the president of the United States, they should be prosecuted. | |
| Roger, and of course, we remember this. | |
| We remember the Logan Act prosecution. | |
| Remember Sally Yates leading that. | |
| When she was the acting attorney general, remember all these investigations that were launched are completely nonsense into Flynn, who, by the way, was the incoming national security advisor duly appointed by the president-elect. | |
| And now you have a situation where people who have no ties to government whatsoever would be getting in. | |
| And of course, why would Zelensky throw something like this, a deal which... | |
| Look, I was there with him in Kiev when he reneged on the deal with Besant. | |
| Then he goes to Munich and he reneges on the deal with J.D. Vance. | |
| So finally you would think, Roger, I thought for sure that what he really wanted out of all of this was an Oval Office visit, that he wanted that to be able to show face back home. | |
| He's going to have to run for president again at some point in Ukraine. | |
| After the war's over and martial law runs out, so certainly you would go to that signing ceremony, which, and by the way, for folks who think this was some kind of pre-planned ambush or something, the pens were already laid out. | |
| The documents were laid out in the East Room of the White House. | |
| This was a done deal, and it was Zelensky himself and his actions potentially, as you say, acting on the advice of Susan Rice and others to scuttle it. | |
| Well, let's remember, Zelensky is an actor by trade. | |
| He's a comedic actor. | |
| I always thought that he was an actor, frankly, played to play the part of a president by the oligarchs in Ukraine. | |
| And his goal here was to provoke Trump. | |
| The president preempted him when Zelensky insisted that the $350 billion we've given him is a gift or a grant. | |
| And that he shouldn't have to pay any of it back. | |
| That the president correctly saw as disrespectful to the American people. | |
| Tell you the other thing, Jack, that bothers me. | |
| We give this guy $350 billion. | |
| He can't wear a suit and tie to meet the president of the United States. | |
| He wore a suit and tie when he spoke to the World Economic Forum. | |
| He wore a suit and tie when he went to kiss the butt of Klaus Schwab and the globalists. | |
| But when he addresses a joint session of Congress or when he visits the president of the United States, he can't wear a suit and tie. | |
| Even Elon Musk, He recognized the decorum of the U.S. House of Representatives on the floor of the Congress, and he wore a suit for the President's State of the Union. | |
| By the way, I think he looked great in it. | |
| So this lack of respect or this playing a role, you know, Castro used to do this. | |
| The communist dictator. | |
| Precisely, Roger. | |
| We're coming up on a quick break. | |
| By the way, shout out to our own Brian Glenn at Real America's Voice, who pushed Zelensky and pressed him on that question about a suit and tie in the People's Oval Office of the People's House. | |
| We'll be right back. | |
| And Jack, where is Jack? | |
| Where is 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 politicians. | |
| All right, folks, here we are back live, Human Events Daily. | |
| Real America's voice. | |
| I want to also welcome in the third hour of the Charlie Kirk Show on... | |
| The Salem Radio Network. | |
| We are here discussing all things political with veteran political strategist Roger Stone. | |
| But Roger also had an interesting article that he posted a couple nights ago. | |
| And I have to say, I read the entire thing word for word because a lot of folks have been looking at the failing health of Pope Francis. | |
| Pope Francis seen as a member of the liberal wing of the church. | |
| Someone who's championed a number of issues that are in line with liberal causes, immigration, open border immigration, climate change, but has also stood for things like pro-life, has stood up against the idea of women being in the pulpit as priests, and also, by the way, is a vocal opponent of the Ukraine war and is constantly called for peace. | |
| He's been in the hospital for weeks on Ash Wednesday. | |
| He was not able to say mass in the Vatican, was required to have a cardinal to replace him, and Roger has written an article about the potential process, should it occur, for selecting the next pope. | |
| Roger, when you apply the art of political prognostication or election prognostication to something like the papacy, is it much different from when you're looking at, say, a seat in Congress or a presidential race? | |
| You know, people tell you that the church or the military is not political, and of course they're entirely political, Jack, so let's look at the process. | |
| If the pope goes on to meet his maker, you would have what is called a conclave. | |
| This is a gathering of all the popes from around the world. | |
| With the exception of those over 80, they are not permitted to vote. | |
| That is a significant setback for the more conservative elements of the church, but it's based on a rule that came out of Vatican II. So, of the current College of Cardinals, 80% of them were chosen by Francis, who by any measure would have to be considered one of the most progressive. | |
| Pope's in recent memory. | |
| Anyway, these elections, there's a cap and the number can slightly differ, the cap on the number of votes. | |
| They meet in the Sistine Chapel, they're essentially locked in, and they keep balloting until they have one candidate with a majority. | |
| One of the cardinals writes the name of their chosen candidate on a slip of paper, folds it, places it in a chalice on the altar. | |
| The ballots are counted by three scrutineers, and to win a candidate needs two-thirds of the majority of the votes. | |
| If nobody gets a majority, those ballots are burned with a chemical that smokes black, and therefore the smoke you see rising from the roof of the Sistine Chapel is black means that... | |
| Do not yet have a pope. | |
| Only when they have a pope do they use a different chemical mix and the smoke is white. | |
| The words habemis papem, meaning we have a pope, is announced from the balcony. | |
| Now you look at the jockeying. | |
| Here we go. | |
| Cardinal Pietro Perolini, 70, of Italy. | |
| He's the Vatican's secretary of state. | |
| Perolini may be the current frontrunner, if there is one. | |
| He's a moderate with extensive diplomatic experience. | |
| He's viewed kind of as a continuum of the current pope. | |
| Although he has some controversial dealings, such as the Vatican's agreement with China, that could complicate his candidacy. | |
| Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle of the Philippines, known as the The Asian Francis, he's again a leader of the progressive wing of the Church and he follows the current Pope's pastoral approach. | |
| My sources tell me that he'd be the worst and probably the most left wing of the choices. | |
| Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Italy, another favorite of Pope Francis. | |
| Zuppi is president of the Italian Episcopal Conference and a moderate known for his social justice advocacy. | |
| Cardinal Friedelin Ambrogo Basungi of the Congo. | |
| He's a strong conservative voice. | |
| I guess in a perfect world, he'd probably be my first choice. | |
| He's a terrific long shot. | |
| Remember, Jack, that 80% of these voters were appointed by the current pope. | |
| Cardinal Wim Egypt, a former doctor, another conservative known for actually opposing Francis' views on marriage and divorce. | |
| His traditionalist stance would appeal to some cardinals to rebalance current reforms, but he again is a long shot. | |
| Cardinal Raymond Burke of the United States, an American traditionalist. | |
| Burke has clashed with Francis on issues like marriage, the Eucharist, same-sex marriage. | |
| Long shot, but he represents a more conservative vocal faction. | |
| My sources think Burke would launch major reforms to strengthen the church until young Catholics who are overwhelmingly conservative are ready to take the helm. | |
| Then there's Cardinal Peter Erdo of Hungary, 72, a conservative canon lawyer respected for his adherence to church doctrine and his kind of low-profile approach. | |
| He, again, would attract some moderate and conservative votes to the extent that there are conservative votes. | |
| Remember, the current pope appointed 80% of the electorate in this particular election. | |
| And then, of course, there's Cardinal Mario Grish of Malta. | |
| He is the secretary general of the Synod of Bishops. | |
| He's a Francis appointee with an extremely progressive bent, emphasizing dialogue with marginalized groups. | |
| So if I had my pick. | |
| I would take Cardinal Robert Serra of Guinea. | |
| He'd be my first choice. | |
| He's a staunch conservative, a defender of the faith in the church, believes in borders, believes in the rules of the West. | |
| We really couldn't do better than Cardinal Robert Serra of Guinea. | |
| So, Roger, for folks that aren't even familiar with the way the College of Cardinals works, for the understanding of them to be able to be voted on at all... | |
| One must be a member of the cardinals. | |
| And so this is your highest rung of the prelates of the church other than the papacy itself. | |
| From those ranks, someone must be chosen. | |
| It doesn't have to be a cardinal, but it is generally a cardinal. | |
| And I believe one of the requirements is that they must be under 80 years old. | |
| That is one of the great disadvantages. | |
| It's one thing to say that the pope should be under 80. But to deny a vote among the cardinals for those cardinals who are over 80 years, this makes no sense to me. | |
| In fact, somebody who's 80 years old would be very wise. | |
| That's someone you would want voting. | |
| We had a president, Ronald Reagan. | |
| He was 80 when he left office. | |
| He was among our greatest presidents. | |
| I think Donald Trump is 77. Why would you exclude those over 80 unless, of course, it's politics, which is what this is about? | |
| Well, that's right. | |
| And this is a new... | |
| So basically the idea is then that creates basically a quorum of people who were not appointed by previous popes, so Benedict or any of the John Paul II cardinals, if they're still around, that they wouldn't be able to participate in the voting. | |
| And then it sets itself up in such a way where Francis essentially is sort of giving the inside track to his own successor. | |
| Do you believe that Pope Francis has picked a successor? | |
| My guess is he probably has. | |
| It's disappointing because, Jack, like you, when I was raised in the church, it was a bulk work of anti-communism. | |
| Father Fulton Sheen on WPIX in New York growing up. | |
| That Catholic Church does not seem to exist except for in certain parishes and outspoken conservatives like Bergano and others are actually excommunicated when they disagree with this pope. | |
| Now, I've seen this pope say that the Bible specifically says that Jesus Christ was opposed to private property rights. | |
| That's not true. | |
| That's false. | |
| Look, the Bible is a practical document. | |
| I didn't always know this. | |
| I know it today. | |
| And it can be read for its literal word. | |
| But some of the things that have been projected onto it are shocking. | |
| Yes, as Catholics, we have to have a concern for the poor. | |
| But in both the Old Testament and the New, hard work is highly prized, self-enterprise and self-responsibility. | |
| These are also enumerated in the Bible. | |
| You wouldn't know it from this pope. | |
| Well, that's exactly right, Roger. | |
| And in fact, there are many items of doctrine, capital punishment and others, that have been longstanding practices within the church that Pope Francis and the Jesuits, and he is of the Jesuit stripe. | |
| That have sought to overturn a doctrine that has been in touch for a long time. | |
| By the way, this is also, and we've been discussing it here on the show, I had an op-ed on humanevents.com that went quite viral, because we've been discussing the effect that this has had on one Amy Coney Barrett, where she seems to have taken Pope Francis's words and rhetoric over the actual doctrine of the church, and certainly over the jurisprudence. | |
| of the Supreme Court itself and the Constitution itself and is taking sort of these ideas of Pope Francis and seemingly putting them into her decisions rather than looking at the long-standing practices of the church if she is as she claims to be a practicing Catholic. | |
| What about Thomas Aquinas? | |
| What about Augustine of Hippo? | |
| What about the Church Fathers? | |
| What about all of the popes prior to Pope Francis who have been in long-standing opposition to many of the things That he said, well, she seems to be applying that to her voting now. | |
| And it has led to situations where she'll say that the President of the United States doesn't even have authority to defund programs. | |
| You know, back at the time that she was under consideration, the great argument was that she was a great pro-life champion. | |
| I was skeptical about her appointment then. | |
| Think how different things would be. | |
| If President Trump had appointed Judge Andrew Napolitano to the court, which is who I think he should have appointed. | |
| Gorsuch is somewhat of a libertarian, being joined on the court by Napolitano, another libertarian. | |
| We have a very different day today on the so-called Roberts Court. | |
| Amy Comey Barrett has been a- Horrific disappointment. | |
| Frankly, so has Kavanaugh. | |
| But if you knew, understood Kavanaugh's ties to the Clintons and the Bushes, you would have understood that prior to his being appointed as well. | |
| I think that's very sound, and I think it's something where, look, you know, a lot of us have talked about this, and I came out with a, you know, perhaps a little bit provocative article, but hey, you know, it's kind of on brand for me where I said that this shows the danger of Republican DEI. Because people kept saying we need to nominate a woman to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg. | |
| Trump needs to nominate a woman because it was an election year. | |
| It was 2020 at the time. | |
| And as it turned out, it had no effect on the election whatsoever. | |
| Obviously, there are a lot of other issues with the 2020 election, but it's also painted us into a corner where just because she was pro-life, and certainly there's no shortage of pro-life conservatives in the legal field. | |
| Now we've got someone who's essentially a pro-life liberal on the court for the rest of her life. | |
| Stay tuned. | |
| We'll be right back with more Roger Stone, myself here, Real America's Voice, and Hour 3 of the Charlie Kirk Show on Salem Radio Network. | |
| Jack is a great guy. | |
| He's written a fantastic book. | |
| Everybody's talking about it. | |
| Go get it. | |
| And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event. | |
| And we're going to turn it around and make our country great again. | |
| Amen. | |
| Ryan Ruth will appear for a status hearing in Florida. | |
| He's set to go to trial this fall. | |
| However, both of these cases still... | |
| Yielding a lot of questions. | |
| President Trump yesterday in the Oval Office was defiant, and now he has allies leading both the FBI and Kash Patel, the director and Secret Service director, Sean Curran. | |
| Here's more from the president yesterday. | |
| They are giving me a report next week sometime, and I do believe I'll be releasing. | |
| I want to release the report. | |
| I mean, maybe there's a reason that we shouldn't, so I don't want to get too far ahead of my skis, but... | |
| Yeah, I would be very willing to release that. | |
| Murder authorities say he waited for hours in the bushes at the president's golf club in West Palm Beach last September, hoping to take a shot. | |
| A Secret Service agent luckily thwarted that plot and Ruth was later captured. | |
| When I'm working long hours, I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec. | |
| All right, Jack, we're back live with Roger Stone. | |
| You saw that clip there in the quick break for those of you watching on TV that Ryan Ruth will be in court today. | |
| We're also getting breaking out of that case that 100, more than 100 federal agents have handled evidence in the Ryan Ruth case, and the FBI was required to buy a special 10-terabyte drive. | |
| For the discovery in this case, Ryan Ruth, of course, we broke the story about his ties to the Azov Battalion over in Ukraine. | |
| The fact remains that he was a Ukrainian foreign fighter who then came to the United States using a Soviet-style rifle to attempt to kill Donald Trump. | |
| Roger, you've written about the JFK assassination extensively. | |
| We obviously, of course, are waiting for Anna Paulina Luna and the others on this task force to release those files. | |
| Do you believe that President Trump will actually be able to get this information out in front of the American people? | |
| I think it's absolutely essential that he does. | |
| In both the case of Butler, Pennsylvania, and the case regarding West Palm, we still have more questions. | |
| Then we have answers. | |
| And I think that's due to a cover-up. | |
| Let's take Butler. | |
| We know that there's a man with a gun. | |
| The Secret Service knows that. | |
| The state and local police know that. | |
| They know that he's inside the perimeter for 91 minutes. | |
| He's been seen with a rangefinder and a firearm, yet nobody informs the president's direct detail, and the president is not evacuated. | |
| Additionally, the federal, state, and local police are all on different radio frequencies, so they can't speak to each other. | |
| The Secret Service declines two offers by the local police to conduct drone surveillance of the entire sealed perimeter area, yet they don't end up doing it themselves as they say they're going to because they say they can't get their federal technology, which is new to them, to actually operate. | |
| The building should have been searched and sealed under the Secret Service manual, but of course it wasn't. | |
| And we also have a situation in which the man they claim shot President Trump, Thomas Matthew Crooks, is shot and killed. | |
| Because, well, like Lee Harvey Oswald, dead men tell no tales. | |
| We can still see photographs of him talking on the telephone, but... | |
| Our government agencies can't tell us who it is he was talking to. | |
| Apple refuses to turn over his records, but they had no problem turning over my records to Robert Mueller before they even got a subpoena for them. | |
| So yeah, I think it reeks of cover-up. | |
| In the case of West Palm Beach, here's a man that we're told is indigent. | |
| He's behind in his rent payments. | |
| He's behind in his alimony, yet he can afford to travel to all these European capitals, where we've seen pictures of them, including Kyiv. | |
| He can afford to post a website to recruit mercenary fighters to go and fight in Ukraine. | |
| How did he get a gun in the United States? | |
| He certainly didn't fly here with one. | |
| Now, he had no trouble flying here, because unlike Tulsi Gabbard, This guy evidently was not on a secret TSA domestic terrorist watch list, but it looks to me like he should have been. | |
| So I say this constantly in my own shows. | |
| You've said it as well, Jack. | |
| Praying for our president is one of the most important things we can do today. | |
| They've tried to kill him twice. | |
| I say they, the deep state. | |
| And that doesn't mean they will not try again. | |
| In fact, given the momentous reforms and his drive for full disposal of the epic corruption, waste, and yes, absolute treason within our government, he's very, very dangerous to them. | |
| He's an existential threat to the deep state today. | |
| Exactly right, and we need all of the information. | |
| Roger, tell us about, I understand you have an announcement about a new evening show that's going to be going on weeknights. | |
| Yeah, it's great, Jack, on 77 WABC and the Apple Audio Network, Red Apple Audio Network, pardon me. | |
| I'm now doing a show in primetime every night at 8 p.m. | |
| Eastern. | |
| You can get that by going to wabcradio.com, wabcradio.com every weeknight. | |
| And then Sunday, still two hours now on Sundays, that's the Roger Stone Show. | |
| You hear it all by going to wabcradio.com. | |
| That's a lot of Roger Stone content. | |
| And do you still have the website up at StoneZone.com for the books? | |
| Absolutely. | |
| You can go to StoneZone.com. | |
| I'm still turning out print journalism there. | |
| I've got a new piece up on Andrew and Tristan Tate coming to Florida. | |
| I have a piece that's about to go up on the parallels between President Nixon. | |
| And to President Trump. | |
| Many, many, many parallels. | |
| The fact they're both trying to extract America from a costly war. | |
| The fact that they deeply distrust the D.C. bureaucracy and the liberal media. | |
| Many, many, many parallels. | |
| And also both set up by the deep state. | |
| Roger Stone, God bless. | |
| Thank you so much for your time with us here today, Human Events Daily. |
