The Poso Daily Brief.
This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
Stay tuned.
A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
Christ is...
Something's out of control, but we're going to put it in control very quickly like we did on the southern border.
I'm announcing a historic action to rescue our nation's capital from crime, bloodshed, bedlam, and squalor, and worse.
This is Liberation Day in DC, and we're going to take our capital back.
Trump posting the homeless.
have to move out immediately.
We will give you places to stay, but far from the capital.
Trump has suggested in the past that the federal government should take over the city and threatened to have the Fed step in after a former worker for Elon Musk's Doge group was assaulted during an attempted carjacking last week.
We have a capital that's very unsafe.
We're going to do something about it.
Over the weekend, more than 100 federal agents were deployed across DC in a massive anti carjacking operation.
Trump also suggesting trying young teenagers as young as 14 as adults.
I thought it was very respectful that the president of Russia is coming to our country as opposed to us going to his country or even a third party place.
But I think we'll have constructive conversations.
Then after that, the next meeting will be with Zelensky and Putin or Zelensky and Putin and me.
I'll be there if they need.
President Trump preparing for a historic and high stakes summit with Vladimir Putin, inviting the Russian president to U.S. soil for the first time in nearly 10 years.
I think my instinct really tells me that we have a shot at it.
We have a shot at it.
it's got to be solved.
The president has already suggested any deal would involve, quote, swapping of territories, something Vladimir Zelensky has made clear he will not do, saying Ukrainians will not give their land to the occupier.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C. Today is August 11th, 2025.
Anno, Domini, Human Events Daily is back.
Incredible trip to poland had the opportunity to attend the inauguration of the great new populist nationalist president carol navra Carol Navratsky there in Warsaw.
And of course, we also got to see the news that Carol Navratsky, the president of Poland, will soon be visiting the U.S. president here coming up in September.
But here's something that's interesting that was breaking while we were over in Poland.
President Trump made a series of statements gearing up towards and really building towards what we saw today in the White House, the liberation of Washington, D.C. and what President Trump announced this morning, the federalization of the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department.
Now, this is being done under evoking in the Home Rule Act of Washington, D.C. And of course, he has all and full constitutional authority to do this.
It's certainly something that is within his legal remit.
And more to the point, it's something that needs to be done because of the outrageous street violence in Washington, D.C. Look, I don't need to go to these statistics, although I would point out.
that one of the commanders of the DC police force was just fired for cooking the books or juking the stats.
That's what they were doing.
Crime in Washington, D.C. is out of control.
And you don't have, I don't have to go to some, you know, random source of statistics and all this.
I know this because I take my kids here, right?
Because I've been here for all this time.
Tanya and I, when we go down to Washington, D.C., we know you stay within a very strict corridor.
You don't step out of that.
And you certainly don't go out for too long after night with little kids.
Because after that falls, absolute chaos.
And you see the stories again and again.
A guy being shot and killed while defending.
his girlfriend, car jackings all over the place, many in many cases fatal.
All right.
This is nuts.
It's completely insane.
And so thank God, President Trump is now coming in.
And he's also, by the way, going to be bringing in the National Guard to be able to go in and clean up the streets.
Bravo, President Trump.
Thank God.
Clean it up, not only in terms of the crime, but you got to get the drugs off the street too.
The drug dealers, the people who are walking around, the whole city smells like drugs all the time.
Even in the tourist areas, you can't take children anywhere, right?
It smells disgusting.
It smells awful.
It's clearly something that's not, as they say, it's.
just not reflective of what our national capital should be.
And I was in Poland last week.
I was in the Polish national capital.
Guess what?
Their murder rate, less than one per 100,000, less than one.
In Washington, D.C., it's 41.
So murder rate is 60 times lower.
in Warsaw, which is a city that has a larger, I believe, has a larger population than Washington, D.C. It's certainly much bigger geographically.
And so why is this?
It's very simple, because they take the laws seriously.
And because you know, if you break the law in Poland, if you break the law in Warsaw, you're going to go away.
They're not going to let you right back out on the street.
No, Washington, D.C. has lost its ability and lost its privilege of self-rule.
And honestly, when I hear President Trump say, we want to take a look at New York and Baltimore and Detroit and Chicago and Philadelphia and Los Angeles, I say, thank God.
Thank God we have a president who actually wants to fix the problems of the public lawlessness in this country.
We need law and order all across the United States of America and we need it now.
The citizens of the United States are in your debt for this, President Trump.
God bless you.
You're right back, Jack Posobiec.
Stand in our way in our golden age has just begun.
This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.
Welcome to the second American Revolution.
All right, Jack Piso Beku.
We are back, Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C. We are back in Washington, D.C. It's been a while.
It's gone for 10 days.
My gosh, it felt great to be out of here.
Folks, every day, gold and silver are in the news.
And they're in the news right now with President Trump announcing that gold will be excluded from the tariffs.
Now, we know that they're testing the all-time highs with the uncertainty of war, inflation.
interest rates and of course the tariffs which are putting precious metals and so much more to literally the limit.
Folks, today when the tariff news came in and this is directly from president trump himself he posted it on true social gold will not be tariff now people always ask me they say how can i get involved in the gold sector and the answer is simple the answer is allegiance gold whether you're a collector looking for the best pricing in the precious metal space or you're looking to protect your future doesn't matter it's five thousand dollars or even five million dollars now is the time to act just go to protectwithposo.com and

All right, I want to go now because President Trump, in addition to all of his incredible announcements about Washington, D.C., he also said something that's really going to set up and preview what's going to happen this Friday in Alaska.
Let's play that.
Russia's tough because they just keep on fighting.
They beat Hitler, so did we.
And they beat Napoleon.
You know, they've been doing this for a long time.
I asked a question to a very, very smart man that some people like and some people don't like.
Victor Orban, right?
From Hungary, the head of Hungary.
And he's in that same area and knows the two countries very well.
I said, this was before Biden didn't do anything to get us out of it.
He could have gotten us out of that.
It would have never happened.
I said, so can Russia be beaten by Ukraine?
He looked at me like, what a stupid question.
He said, Russia is a massive country, and they win their country, and they win their life through wars.
They fight wars.
That's what they do.
He said, China beats you with trade.
Russia beats you with war.
All right, Jack Posobik.
Now, of course, you know that we had an interview with Prime Minister.
Orban asking about this as well as other things just a couple of months ago, President Trump also talking about meeting with Victor Orban discussing these questions.
Now, the bilateral meeting, it all comes to a head this Friday on U.S. soil, but far, far, far up in the snowy north, though it's not that snowy right now because it's summertime.
Alaska, Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump.
Mike Benz joins us now to break down this historic summit, which, and by the way, I've checked folks, this will be the very first time a Russian leader even going back to imperial times has ever set foot in Alaska and the first time that Putin has been to the United States since 2015.
Let's bring him in.
What's up, Mike?
Are you not hearing me?
Sorry, I just lost the audio.
All right, guys, let's stand by on Mike for a minute.
I'll just have the producers double check with him, run that audio test.
We did a test during the Folks, what we're seeing is that President Trump has run an end around on all of this.
this, President Trump is bypassing the globalists.
He's bypassing the Europeans.
He's bypassing all of the neoliberals.
He's bypassing the entire establishment.
In fact, he's even bypassing BRICS.
He's saying, you know what?
This is going to come down.
What have we said here on Human Events Daily since day one?
Since day one, I have told you on this program that the only way that this will end is when we see direct talks between the leaders of the United States.
and the leaders of Russia.
None of this other stuff, you know, we're going to, oh, send this over and this package and this is going to get done and that's going to get done.
I said, no, you've got to cut out the entire rest and go for the one-on-one summit.
Now it's happening in absolutely stunning fashion.
President Trump set to sit down with Vladimir Putin this Friday in Alaska.
And then the Russians are putting out some information saying that Trump himself might be traveling to Russia for the next in a series of meetings.
All right, I think we have Mike Benz back.
Yeah, hey, how you doing, Jack?
Hey, there we go.
So, Benz, walk us through this move.
And it's such a brilliant master stroke here because President Trump is skipping all over.
over I think the steps that were actually obstacles to the peace process and saying you know what I'm gonna deal with this one myself all the biggest obstacles to the peace process are right here in Washington DC which is why I think it's fitting to have this in the most remote part of the United States, well as quite adjacent to Kamchatka in Russia.
place that Sarah Palin said she could look out her back door and see Russia.
So it's almost like a Yeah, Sarah Palin has been totally vindicated.
But Trump's great opponents in trying to strike peace have not been Putin or I would argue even Zelensky, but rather the phalanx of blob corps, sort of army corps from the blob who are on both sides of the Atlantic from the legacy DC internationalist.
mafia together with the transatlantic side of the NATO cabal who have tried to sabotage the peace process at every turn.
If it was, folks remember, right before the previous round of peace talks with Russia and Ukraine.
Mike Pompeo traveled over to Ukraine, gave a speech about the need to unsettle the peace process by attacking Putin.
And the very next day, the very, the largest attack on Russia's territory was set off by Ukraine, which scuttled the peace process.
So you have this, you know, this, this core of folks who make their living off of war.
with Russia, off of seizing assets from Eurasia, who do not want peace, certainly do not want peace under the terms that Trump, I think, would be willing, which include giving up land in Ukraine.
The fact is, is that land in Ukraine that Russia has seized has been under a coup government for 11 years.
It was the Obama administration's toppling, the overthrow of the democratically elected government of Ukraine in 2014 that caused eastern Ukraine, which is majority Russian ethnic, to break away.
What would we do in the United States in that situation if a foreign government toppled our own and then one side of our country broke away and did not respect the new coup government.
I mean, that was what.
happened here and so ukraine sort of ceased to become ukraine after the 2014 maidan coup it became a nato owned western half and a russia affinity eastern half so the the seizing of this this land which frankly is not even all that great a territorial uh dominion is something that i think putin is is bent on.
He does not want to give up land for peace now that he controls that land.
And what good is giving that back anyway as soon as a Democrat gets in power or as soon as a Nikki Haley Republican gets in power, they're going to try to seize that land.
They're going to use that land to build NATO missiles on.
We know that Ukraine is still ostensibly on a path to NATO accession.
NATO has made no promises that it would not fold Ukraine into NATO.
In fact, they're moving ahead with it.
And even if they did promise it, who in the right mind would believe it?
after all the lies that NATO has told about stopping expansion.
So with that all said, I think that the only path to peace is through Ukraine giving up land, land that it frankly should not have.
have, you know, should not have taken through a 2014 coup and left the entire eastern state helpless.
I mean, the eastern Ukrainians were being murdered by American military muscle that was being thrown from 2014 to 2022 at the Ukrainian military in order to seize that back.
So Trump needs to conduct these negotiations in peace, in tranquility.
and in Alaska.
And it's so symbolic.
Alaska, of course, originally discovered by the Russians as a matter of fact all the way back in the 1700s and I've always said that America is a country that was founded amongst empires so the Russian empire was on the continent of North America as well as the Spanish everyone knows the British the French were here all the way up through the French uh what eventually became the louisiana purchase and so you just see empire after empire the dutch you know even had
uh you know many holdings new york city and so the fact that you're you're having it in this place where and of course by the way the russian orthodox church uh most of the natives up in alaska are in fact russian orthodox and so this is something where a lot of people will be asking, why are they doing it up there?
But it makes a lot of sense for a number of reasons, also which we're coming up on a break here real quick, also which because there is that ICC warrant out for Putin regarding the Ukraine war, but the United States, of course, famously.
does not uphold ICC warrants, does not enforce them.
And so, of course, this is a country that he actually can travel to without having to worry about any of the legal framework that the ICC would run into.
That, of course, prevented him from attending some of the BRIC summits like the one in Brazil recently.
Jack Posobiec, Mike Benz, right back.
Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice.
You talk about influences.
These are influences and they're friends of mine.
Jack Posobiec.
Where's Jack?
He's done a great job.
All right, Jack Posobiec, we are back.
Human Events Daily on with Mike Benz.
we're talking about the significance of the Trump-Putin meeting that that is widely expected to take place on Friday.
It's been announced that it'll take place on Friday.
I think likely that it will take place in Anchorage, though, of course.
um and of course it could take place as well on a military base there's certainly are plenty up there in the anchorage region or others you're just going to need that much infrastructure for media and two heads of state the two largest nuclear powers in the world to hold a meeting like this um certainly by the way puts alaska on you know, on the map once again, the history of the U.S. and Russia in Alaska.
You talk about the U.S. and Russia having a strong competition, by the way, in the north, in the Northern Sea, going across the Arctic, which is going to be one of the seminal competitive flashpoints coming up over the next century.
And in fact, it's something that puts natural resources, I would even say, on the map as well.
Looking at things like pebble mine, that Russia, of course, exploits the resources of Siberia directly across the strait.
But of course, America does not and largely leaves many of those natural resources behind and because of regulations.
Mike Benz, walk us through some of the ideas that we've been hearing for, you know, we haven't gotten quite a full readout of what.
you know, what the offers are going to be when it comes to the negotiations here.
Russia, I think, of course, pushing for all four of the contested oblasts.
JD Vance saying yesterday that they'd be looking for basically a ceasefire along the line of contact, which would not include the entirety of all four of the oblasts.
And I think there's a new phrase that's been going around talking this idea of de facto recognition of Russian control of these areas, which is not quite the same thing as complete acceptance of this.
And similar in many ways to Kosovo.
as well.
Mike, the floor is yours.
Well, what they want to do is they want to freeze the losses so that what NATO wants is to freeze the losses to stop losing territory, to stop losing men and young people, old people, imported people,
so that after a fair amount of time and rebuilding of Ukraine and rearming of Ukraine, they can seize those oblasts and seize Crimea at a time when the growth rate of Ukraine and Europe and a favorable administration in the US would be able to win this war in a way that they cannot presently.
This is why I always refer to this as a kind of what NATO is offering.
is a peace fire.
It's a peace deal, ceasefire, but the emphasis is on fire.
If you listen to Mike Pompeo's speech, for example, right before Ukraine launched its latest, deadliest attack on Russian territory, and Pompeo was asked, when do you think this war could end?
And Pompeo made the argument that it'll never end, that even in a scenario of peace Russia will still be the devil.
Russia will still be the great menace to European security.
And so even with a peace deal, we have to keep fighting the war.
And of course, this is because...
They want to seize the $75 trillion worth of natural resources in Russia.
And Ukraine is a stop along that journey, but it's a very pivotal stop because of its geostrategic location.
But I think what Russia wants is an agreement that Ukraine will not join NATO.
What Russia wants is keeping at least large swaths of the territory that it has acquired militarily.
Certainly that will include Crimea.
The idea that Russia could lose its own its only warm water port, I think would be disastrous for Russia to give up.
And I think they feel they have no need to give it up.
Of course, the counterweight to this is NATO is building its biggest ever NATO base right on the Black Sea in Romania after what appeared to be a total coup of the Romanian government, annulling the first round election, indicting the populist candidate.
Calen Georgescu who won that election and then appearing to sabotage that entire election process through the courts the same way the Brazil courts.
have been co-opted in that manner.
But I think that NATO hopes that it can build up that military base in Romania and it can fund this new European army that Germany and France are spearheading.
I think they've already allocated billions of dollars to this new kind of European army concept to get it renewed.
Just, just, I'm looking at the clock and I realize I only have you for two more minutes.
Just zoom out.
Can we zoom out for a little bit here and say the US and Russia meeting a larger strategy?
strategic agreement between the two of them, this hope that President Trump has spoken of of pivoting Russia perhaps against China, breaking up the BRICS block.
How much of a threat is this to the transatlantic axis?
Oh, it's an enormous one.
Much of that transatlantic axis is now allied with China, and they don't want, I think, a Russia-China conflict.
Obviously, Russia has been driven into China's arms because of all this.
The sanctions policy that the Obama administration led against Russian oil and gas.
gas in any trade between Europe and Russia since 2014 when the Obama State Department threw a hissy fit that Russia simply backed the faction of Ukraine that Obama isolated in a coup.
But effectively, we blew up the Nord Stream pipeline.
So Russia's now reconnecting all of its gas through the power of Siberia 2 pipeline to China.
So China's getting bargain basement discount prices on Russian gas that could have been cheap gas for Europeans.
But the fact is, is there is a significant amount of benefit to an American-Russian partnership.
In fact, even the Obama, Hillary Clinton folks knew this coming into 2014 when Obama campaigned in 2012 on saying that the 1980s called, they want their foreign policy back when Mitt Romney accused Russia, Obama being soft on Russia.
You had Hillary Clinton doing business with Russia for uranium one.
It's going to be absolutely historic.
Mike Benz, where can people follow you, brother?
Follow me on X at Mike Benz Cyber, also on YouTube and Rubble.
Make sure you're following him, folks., all eyes are on Russia.
All eyes on Alaska.
The Northern Summit approaches and folks, the North remembers.
It's all about ending the killing.
That's how you connect the line between Russia, Ukraine, Alaska, and this new announcement for American cities.
Right back, Jack, the Soviet Human Events, Real America's Voice.
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 band, but we have guys and these are the guys who should be getting publishers.
All right, Jack Wasopic, here we are back live Human Events Daily Washington, D.C. Folks, it's very simple.
It's time to make cities great again.
We talk about society and we talk about civilization.
We talk about Western civilization.
There's an incredible amount of rural areas in the United States.
I love them.
I love small town America.
But there's something about cities.
The purpose of civilization is to create cities.
Cities are an expression of your civilization.
And I'm not talking about our cities as the way they are.
I'm talking about our cities as the way they were.
What is history if not the history of cities?
Moscow, Rome, London, Washington, D.C., today Hollywood, Silicon Valley, Palo Alto, if you want the actual city name.
Cities are the backbone of your economic powerhouses and your power bases for every country, New York City.
Everyone knows this.
This is how it works.
But if your cities are in a state of collapse, if your cities are in a state of disarray, then your country is in disarray.
And so I talked about a tactical retreat physically.
When I say we used to say get out of cities, I meant that in terms of the context was 2020.
And the context was cities where George Soros DAs were running rampant, crime all over the streets, violence kicking off everywhere.
And so I said, yeah, get out of the cities.
However, it's now time for phase two.
And phase two is we take back our cities, make cities great again.
I want to bring on now Kenny Cody because Kenny wrote an op-ed this weekend all about this.
And in fact, it presaged the announcement from President Trump.
this morning.
Kenny, how are you?
I'm great, Jack.
How are you doing, brother?
So tell us about this op-ed.
Obviously, you were focusing on DC itself, but walk us through the mechanisms and the really the circumstances that led to this announcement earlier today.
Well, of course, the assault of a federal official, Big Balls, as people know him as on social media and through mainstream media, getting assaulted, I think that's kind of what preempted this maneuver today and the announcement today of federal law enforcement taking over the DC police departments.
But this is something that's been a long time coming with the increasing violence that's been going on in our nation's capital.
And remember, this is where all great American monuments, the example of American excellence is existed in Washington, D.C. When foreign diplomats come here, when big businesses want to come here and invest within our states and our cities and throughout the rest of the country, they come to DC and they want to see American excellence.
They want to see American tradition and the erosion of the last 20 to 25 years from DC being a symbol of American greatness to now it being a city of lawlessness and crime and murder and assault.
I mean, we've seen more federal officials.
federal staffers that have been assaulted and killed within the last few months more than about any other time throughout American history because of the lawlessness.
It isn't a associated targeted attack oftentimes.
It's just the amount of crime per square mile that DC deals with on a regular basis.
And it's been existing more in the last six months than probably any other time over the last four years, besides 2020.
Trump saw this going on.
Trump continues to see the lawlessness not only in DC, but in cities like Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles, Memphis, and other cities where violence is skyrocketing and a precedent has to be set.
This is how lawlessness is going to be eradicated.
This is how lawlessness needs to be treated.
And we need to make an example of Washington, DC, make it a symbol of American greatness again.
And if that's not going to happen, then these kind of maneuvers need to be done throughout America.
There needs to be federal law enforcement, the National Guard, and other avenues used to establish law, safety, and sanity within our cities.
Because if Democratic leadership in these cities and progressive leadership in these cities continue to advocate for defunding the police and a lack of a priority of social justice over human life continues to happen, the same thing that's happening in DDC today needs to be happening in our other cities tomorrow.
And look, you know, you talk about Washington, D.C. And by the way, so President Trump has the ability to invoke the Home Rule Act for Washington, D.C. So of course, he can go and directly federalize the metropolitan.
Metropolitan Police Force, and in which completely legal, completely has been on the works for 50 years.
And then you go back even to the Constitution itself.
Washington, D.C. has always been a federal district.
However, when you talk about the federal government's ability to fight crime in other big cities, people say, oh, you can't do this.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Presidents from Lincoln to Eisenhower to Nixon to Johnson all understood.
government has a role when crime gets out of control.
When crime, that should be your bumper sticker.
When crime gets out of control, the federal government has a role.
We have laws from the Insurrection Act to the Organized Crime Control Act, law after law after law that are currently on the books, national emergency laws that the president has at his disposal, as well, by the way, as his ability to come in and say, if a city does not comply with these requirements, a series of new requirements, for example, then you can cut off all federal funding.
to that city.
So there's so many ways that the president can do this.
And I say this as someone who, you know, grew up in the Philadelphia area, not far from Baltimore, not far from New York.
And I've seen how these once great cities have descended into absolute, abject chaos, Washington, D.C. as well.
This entire, and you can name the city and they're all in the same situation, St. Louis, Birmingham, Chicago, Detroit, et cetera.
It's a joke.
It's a national crisis and it absolutely has to be dealt with.
Well, 100%.
I mean, look at New York City, the new mayor, well, not the new mayor yet, unfortunately, but Zoran Amdani is literally advocating on defunding the police.
He can go back and say, well, I didn't mean that this way I've changed since then, whatever.
But the current progressive leadership in these cities is exactly what is eroding American society.
It's what it's eroding America's once great city basis.
We have got to set a precedent.
And hopefully the success from this, because I know for a fact whenever, because the DC Police Union came out today and said, I'm glad this is happening because of the lack of leadership that this city has within its own boundaries.
Now, when you have police unions coming out and saying that, I don't want to hear anything about fascism or anything else about the federal takeover when the DC Police Union is literally saying, please come help us, our own leadership cannot.
And that's the same thing needs to happen in other cities.
There is a lack of leadership because of the priority of social justice over human life.
Now they're advocating.
Did he vote?
I'm sorry.
Oh no, I was going to say.
And to that point, Kenny, I want to play SOT 1 right now, guys.
Fight back until you knock the hell out of them because it's the only language they understand.
But they fought back against law enforcement last night.
And they're not going to be fighting back long because I've instructed them and told them whatever happens, you know, they love to spit in the face of the police as the police are standing up there in uniform.
They're standing and they're screaming at them an inch away from their face.
And then they start spitting in their face.
And I said, you tell them you spit and we hit and they can hit real hard.
And it's a disgusting thing.
I've watched that for years, for three, four years.
I've watched them.
police are standing and they're told don't do anything under any search so they're and you can see they want to get at it And they're standing there and people are spitting in their face and they're not allowed to do anything.
But now they are allowed to do whatever the hell they want.
I love it.
You spit, we hit.
hit.
When the looting starts, the shooting starts.
That's how crime gets out of control.
So the police have to get in.
The police have to get in before that takes place.
Kenny, this is something, man, and I remember, you know, looking back in history, Frank Rizzo, the great Frank Rizzo of Washington, or excuse me, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he, his spirit is now looking down on Washington, D.C. You got to crack down on these thugs.
a doubt and and that that's the entire point it's just like what we just said like trump says that the police have been disenfranchised for so long and they have been.
I mean, these progressive cities literally put police departments on the lowest spectrum of priority, the lowest spectrum of respect as they can establish.
And when that happens, citizens don't respect their police departments anymore.
Like in Los Angeles, when petty crimes are being allowed to walk freely, like you're allowed to go and rob a convenience store without any sort of penalty because it's the same as a traffic violation.
I mean, those are the kinds of policies that are that progressive cities and progressive governance is making police departments not be respected at all.
Like they are thought of so low on the totem pole, like they're from England with just back with just you know such a low priority there's not respected they're thought such on the low end of term like they're traffic cops or something and they need to be respected the get spit and get hit priority and the spit and get hit statement is so important there because that's exactly what happened there's a new sheriff in town folks and his name is president donald john trump right back jack was so big kenny cody human events realmakers daily 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.
We're going to be removing homeless encampments from all over our parks, our beautiful, beautiful parks, which now a lot of people can't walk on.
They've been very, they're very dirty, very, uh, got a lot of problems.
But we've already started that.
We're moving the encampments away, trying to take care of people.
Some of those people, we don't know how they even got there.
Some of those people are from different countries, different parts of the world.
Nobody knows who they are.
They have no idea, but they're there getting rid of the people from underpasses and public spaces from all over the city there are many places that they can go and we're going to help them as much as you can help but they'll not be allowed to turn our capital into a wasteland for the murder rate in Washington today is higher than that of Bogota Columbia Mexico City some of the places that you hear about as being the worst
places on earth much higher this is much higher the number of car thefts has doubled over the past five years and the number of karjakins has more than tripled.
Our capital city has been overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals, roving mobs of wild youth, drugged out maniacs and homeless people.
And we're not going to let it happen anymore.
We're not going to take it.
Oh, man.
I almost want, I almost want, guys, guys.
I never do this.
I never do this.
We have to do it.
I'm sorry, guys.
We have to do it.
Play that last sot of Trump again.
You got to play that last clip again.
It was just so good.
The murder rate in Washington today is higher than that of Bogota, Columbia, Mexico City, some of the places that you hear about as being the worst places on Earth.
Much higher.
This is much higher.
The number of car thefts has doubled over the past five years and the number of carjackings has more than tripled.
Our capital city has been overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals, roving mobs of wild youth, drugged-out maniacs and homeless people.
And we're not going to let it happen anymore.
We're not going to take it.
You can hear it in his voice there.
The drugged out maniacs, the homeless people.
That's President Trump focusing on the main quest.
The main quest is very simple.
It's really simple.
It's four little words.
Make America great again.
We are positively taking steps to make America great again by removing the illegals from this country and cleaning up our cities.
We are going to fix the home front.
Cities are the beating heart of our culture.
Cities are where ideas collide.
Cities are where commerce and community and innovation and societies right there legacies.
That is the point of cities.
What do we have now with decadence, degradation?
You look like the Weimar Republic out there.
Why America?
No, no.
America deserves better.
Our kids deserve better.
I don't want to have to be spelling weed anytime I take my kids anywhere in a city or a national park.
It's all got to be done.
Kenny Cody.
I want to get Kenny back in here because Kenny, the MAGA movement was born on a golden escalator on Fifth Avenue 10 years ago.
President Trump, of course, he is Mr. New York.
He worked with Rudy Giuliani to clean up New York City.
And you can tell this, and that's why I played the clip twice.
This one is personal to him.
Yeah, I mean, I think it is.
I think when somebody has worked in real estate and worked in cleaning up New York City for most of his life, I think he has lived in D.C. long enough now in his second term to see something has to change.
And he's taken over control of a federal district and its police force to clean up our streets.
He's cleaning up America by deporting illegal immigrants and giving jobs back to Americans.
And when companies, when foreign diplomats, when a lot of other people come into this country and go to DC and they look and see the homeless, they look and see crime, they have to be scared for their lives and they travel in Ubers and taxis throughout the city.
If they want to go and see a monument, they have to go at a specific hour.
That shouldn't be how things work anymore.
And it shouldn't be how things work in any single metropolitan city in the United States.
In Chicago, LA, Memphis, or any other city that has history that is should be an example of American greatness.
We should not have to look over our shoulder to make sure we're not going to get mucked.
Don't bury the lead, brother.
Don't bury the lead.
Memphis, Tennessee.
Tell me a little bit about Memphis, Tennessee, about what sort of the public view of Memphis is and how it actually is right now.
I mean, I think the public view of Memphis is it was once the city of Elvis Presley.
It was once the city of Graceland.
It was once the city where country music and jazz musicians went to thrive and where it was born.
But now it is a city full of gun crime, progressive leadership that has a higher murder rate than about any other city in America.
And that's exactly what has happened in the city of Memphis is exactly what's happened in so many other metropolitan areas in the United States.
And I think that's if you took Memphis out of Tennessee and you've taken Memphis, we would be one of the highest ranked states in terms of gun death, in terms of violent crime.
We'd be one of the safest states in the country because of its leadership and the gun violence that happens there solely because of the progressive leadership.
They have some of the highest gun gun restrictions city wise that there is in the country, but because Tennessee has cities that succeed like Nashville, like Knoxville, like Chattanooga that doesn't have high crime rates at all, but because we have Memphis, we're ranked among the highest in terms of crime statistics because of one city.
But that's exactly what's happening in every city in America.
American greatness, Tennessee greatness, state by state greatness is being cast aside because of progressive leadership and Marxist priority of social justice over actually protecting human life and American greatness on the home front, like you just said.
And if things like that, I feel the same way.
I feel the same way coming from the Philadelphia area.
Every Fourth of July, people will play videos or old John Adams miniseries, clips from the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
And that's sort of like the Philadelphia, or even if you watch Rocky, you kind of have this vision of Philadelphia.
But then you go and look at Philly on any.
on like the actual fourth of july weekend and it's it's shootings it's drive-bys it's a dump Philadelphia has become an absolute dump it's a place where I certainly don't spend a lot of time with my kids.
I've taken them in and I'm taking them out right away because that's how it's become.
And I don't want it to be like that.
And I'm telling you, man, I just got back from Poland.
I just got back from Warsaw, which is a huge city.
And you know what's great about that is they don't They don't take it at 1.8 million, all right?
About 2 million people who live in Warsaw.
That is a world city by any standard, certainly by Western standards, by Chinese standards a little, it's nowhere near that large.
I think Shanghai is like 25 million.
It's completely insane.
But by the way, by the way, even Shanghai, as big as it is, and even Tokyo, it's like 30 million, as big as they are, guess what?
They don't have the crime problems.
And why don't they have the crime problems?
It's because they enforce the law.
Last minute to you, Kenny Cody.
Man, that's something that needs to be prioritized.
And making America great again is about image.
It's about saving the American people, giving them those opportunities that were not there before.
And the first thing comes in deporting illegal immigrants and in imprisoning criminals that are trashing our cities, that are killing our people, that are taking opportunity away from hardworking Americans.
And President Trump is doing that and setting that president today by federalizing DC.
And it needs to happen to set the president for the rest of the country.
Yeah, by the way, I just pulled it up.
So Warsaw is bigger than Philadelphia, bigger than Phoenix.
It would be the fifth largest city in the United States if it was over here.
And yet, less than one murder, one homicide per 100,000.
hundred thousand that's the murder rate in warsaw 60 times lower than that of washington dc kenny cody where can people go to follow you and track this new op that you just put out uh it's pinned on my twitter profile at kd cody tn and you can follow me on true social at the same username and find all my articles archived at humanevents.com folks president trump and you could hear it from his voice up there at the podium today in the white house main quest stay main quest We are fixing the
homeland.
You fix the cities.
You fix the homeland.
You get the.
illegals out, you get the criminals out, you get the drugs out, and you clean the place up.
You make Fortress America to literally be that shining city on the hill.
And you know something, the city needs a little bit of work.
So President Trump, thank you for your work to make cities great again.
