Tyler Robinson Lawyers Attack Human Events & Oscars Attack TPUSA Halftime Show

Hey guys, it's Jack.

I wanted to let you know that we're starting a new push for subscriptions here on human

events daily.

So make sure that when you're listening to this podcast, you hit subscribe, you download

it and you share it with five of your friends.

Make sure they're all going and downloading as well because we need to get the signal

out as much as possible.

Look, we've done so much over the past couple of years since this show started and we're

only going to do so much more.

Let's get it.

This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.

A commentator, international social media sensation and form a Navy intelligence veteran.

This is human events with your host, Jack Pesovic.

Christ is King.

Or any Ron.

Now entering its third week, both sides digging in.

Say Ron is now threatening retaliation after the U.S. attacked a critical oil hub, U.S.

striking 90 targets on an island, which serves as Iran's main oil export terminal, Israel

congratulating the U.S. on the strikes.

The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, once again, coming under fire as a missile struck a helipad.

President Trump saying that Iran is totally defeated and wants a deal, but not one that he

would accept.

We're asked for a ceasefire, and we have never asked even for negotiation.

We are ready to defend ourselves as long as it takes, and this is what we have done

so far, and we continue to do that.

The U.S. military has ordered more than 2,000 Marines and an amphibious assault ship to

the Middle East.

Former employees of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency in the hot sea tonight.

The deposition is part of a lawsuit filed by humanity's groups that say Doge violated

the First Amendment by canceling more than 1,400 grants.

Islands is erupting in Cuba.

This protestors torched Communist Party offices through a rocks and chant against the regime

in a rare show of defiance.

Havana is opening talks with the Trump administration while a deepening energy and economic crisis

grips the island.

The CEOs of 10 major U.S. airlines are demanding Congress end a funding standoff and pay its TSA

workers.

In a letter, they claim 93 percent of Americans support paying aviation workers during government

shutdowns.

A letter brief that is online dated October 28, 2025 from a group called Human Events.

And it's addressed to your honor.

And it's in the nature of a brief on the closure issues we've been discussing today.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome on board today's edition of Human Events Daily.

We're here live real America's voice today is March 16, 2026, and no dominate.

And folks, I got to tell you, you know, a lot, a lot of auspicious anniversaries today.

Today is of course stone cold Steve Austin day.

So happy 316 to everyone who celebrates, but also today is 42 years since Gary Plouche.

Yes, Gary Plouche became the greatest father in the past century.

God bless you Gary Plouche and God bless you for what you did as a role model to fathers

everywhere 42 years ago today.

And in fact, this on Jody is a human events follower.

And of course, we stand with you.

And I would say go and follow Jody and go and check out his book Why Gary Why now speaking

of other criminal cases, Tyler Robinson had his day in court or one of his days in

court on Friday and we hear at human events found ourselves being the ones who were targeted

by Tyler Robinson's lawyers.

And by the way, I found at this photo of Robinson, this is not from Friday.

This is actually from the February hearing, but I want to show you guys this photo because

I've never seen it before and I sent it around last night.

This is a photo of Tyler Robinson sitting in court while he's looking at a picture of

Charlie.

And this is a picture of Charlie from obviously from a high angle, looking down moments

before Charlie was shot and killed.

And that's Tyler Robinson looking at that picture in the courtroom.

So you're seeing the photo from behind Tyler's over the shoulder behind his back and then

looking down to see what's on his computer screen.

The reason that you know this one isn't from Friday is because Tyler Robinson was not

even put on camera on Friday.

And so we were not, if you were not in the courtroom, you couldn't see him at all.

This would become a huge issue and it's become such an issue that his own lawyers, Tyler

Robinson's lawyers are attacking human events for putting an open letter into the court saying

that we demand full public access under the First Amendment to these hearings.

And we continue to do so.

The courtroom must have live video throughout the course of the trial.

The right of the public to have access to this case, the murder of Charlie Kirk, the trial

of Tyler Robinson is paramount.

It must continue and it must be allowed.

There are already too many questions out there.

There are too many people who have concerns about what is going on.

We absolutely need this.

And so we responded.

We say we stand by our call for transparency in this case and we condemn the misrepresentation

of it in court to try to undermine us, to try to intimidate us.

We won't allow it.

And if they so choose, we are more than willing, I am personally willing to go to court and

argue before the judge with Tyler Robinson sitting right there.

If he wants to, he can look whatever picture he'd like while he's in court.

And we will argue for this right and we will argue that these proceedings need to be public.

Charlie's murder was public.

His execution was on live stream.

The murderer made that decision, not Charlie.

Charlie didn't have a say in his murder, but the murderer did.

And as such, since it was public, so too should be the trial.

Full public, full live stream for the entire world to see.

So let's go.

And if you have a problem with that, I'm more than happy to take you to court.

We write back Jack Bessovic, Human Events Daily Continues.

This is Human Events with Jack Bessovic.

Now it's time for everyone to understand what America first truly means.

Welcome to the second American Revolution.

All right, folks, Jack Bessovic back live, Human Events Daily.

By the way, this shot of the White House, I want to draw your attention to those clouds.

Guys, throw the shot up again real quick, because I want to draw your attention to the clouds.

You see there right above the White House.

Apparently there is a tornado warning in effect for Washington, D.C. today, something that

is going to be hitting potentially within the next couple of hours.

So it's something certainly that we're looking at.

I know the president's looking at Congress.

And so a lot of plane cancellations, a lot of things, being canceled, schedules going

out.

So we'll see whether or not something as such materializes.

But as they say, the storm is brewing.

Folks, every major company that you know is using AI right now, your TurboTax, your Google,

your Amazon, your Meta, Microsoft, Apple, the banks, the insurance companies, hospitals,

credit bureaus, retailers, data firms, they say it's all about innovation.

But the truth is it's about actually turning your personal information into their profit.

Big corporations are serving you up on a silver platter to cyber criminals.

AI runs on data about real people.

Your name, your home address, your phone number, your job, your family.

That information comes from data brokers and people search sites that build detailed

profiles on you without permission.

During tax season, that exposure becomes even more dangerous because those same profiles

don't just feed corporate AI systems they're used by scammers.

Criminals look people up before they attack.

They know who you are, where you live and how to approach you.

And this is the time of the year they strike the hardest.

They think fake tax returns impersonating the IRS and stealing refunds using stolen

identities.

AI is making these scams faster and easier to execute in harder spot.

When your information is public, you're exposed.

So ask yourself, what defenses do you actually have against this?

The human events and audience knows exactly what that is.

That defense is Patriot Protect.

Patriot Protect is the only anti AI tool that actually removes you from this system.

Patriot Protect deletes your personal information from Google and removes it from over 240 data

broker and people search sites.

The exact places that AI systems and scammers pull from.

Once removed, their search and destroy protocol keeps monitoring and wiping new exposures

automatically.

So don't just sit there and let scammers use AI to exploit and steal from you and your family.

Use Patriot Protect and take your data back.

Take control of your personal information and reduce your exposure.

Use promo code POSO for 15% off all Patriot Protect plans.

Go to patreon-protect.com slash POSO and use promo code POSO for 15% off.

You know, we're talking about these legal issues and of course, we know that in order to

go through those and work on those, you got to go to the experts and that's why, of course,

we needed to get the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights from the Department of Justice.

Here once again on the program, Harmeet Thill and Harmeet, how are you?

Guys, I am not hearing Harmeet.

Can we work on that?

Something I think a little, little might be off on there, but, oh, there it is.

There she is.

Sorry about that.

Ask you again.

How are you?

Guys, I'm not sure what's, can we, let's get Harmeet's audio fixed up there, guys, because

I heard her for a second, then it went away.

Then we got her back.

I want to make sure this interview comes in because she's an incredible guest and we

love the fact that she gives us the opportunities that we have with her.

And there's so much that's going on from the Department of Justice level.

And I wanted to get in, one of the things that we need to talk about, of course, is the

Save Act, the Save America Act, because we have to focus on the problem with America's

voter roles.

And we know this is coming up and we know that as we go into a midterm election, this

is huge.

This is so absolutely important because it's a real simple question.

Are legal aliens voting in our elections?

Have they been voting in our elections?

And what's interesting is that when Chuck Schumer came up last week and he said, well,

if we passed the Save Act, then 10 to millions of people will be kicked off the voter roles.

And I said, wait a minute.

I thought you said that there ain't no illegals on the voter roles.

So if they're not on the voter roles, who's getting kicked off?

It's really as simple as that.

Are we, are we, are we go with Harmeet guys?

Do we have the audio up?

Harmeet, let's try this again.

Okay.

Can you hear me now, Jack?

Can you hear me now?

Yeah, there it is.

Perfect.

All right.

We love when the, we love when the technology is fun.

You know, there's this storm that's hitting DC.

It's actually funny enough.

It's been a bunch of people have been saying they're getting technical difficulties with

all sorts of systems today.

So I don't, and yet we are live camera is getting a, you can start to see it now.

It's overcast.

The water's coming down.

So I appreciate you being on.

And I know there's some issues with, with weather at DC today.

Yeah, actually our building is shut down now.

So this is my last thing before I had home for safety and this is very important.

So happy to discuss it with your audience.

Well, I appreciate that so much.

And I was wondering though, if, if I could, if you would indulge me, just giving your

legal background as well, this, this question that, you know, we find ourselves in this

fight for transparency in the Tyler Robinson, um, criminal case, this issue over cameras

in the courtroom.

Now, this is state level case, not a federal case, but I was, I was wondering if you could

sort of put in perspective this, you know, this issue because we're here at human events

standing for full transparency.

Yes, obviously we have a direct tie to the case as well.

But I certainly didn't think that this would be anything that would be brought up by his

lawyers, but they decided to name us in court on Friday.

Well, look, I mean, I wasn't really prepared to discuss this particular issue in the DOJ.

I don't know has a particular position on it or not, but not, not, not from an official

standpoint, of course, just the, you know, at my level, I think there are arguments on

both sides.

One of the arguments for is, of course, I've represented numerous media organizations,

and certainly I think the media should have the right to comment on things, whether

that includes up to the extent of cameras in the courtroom, I think is a separate issue.

But definitely I've gone to court to fight for the right of the media to be able to report

the wrong cases and, you know, I felt amicus briefs and even gone and represented journalists

in that regard.

On the flip side, there's a concern that when you have cameras in the courtroom, it distorts

how the judge rules on things, and it distorts how the lawyers play to the cameras as opposed

to to the jury, and frankly, it intimidates some jurors.

And so I would say the main purpose of the criminal justice system is to obtain justice,

and it then relies on both legislators as well as in some cases, on a case-by-case basis,

judges to determine whether the prejudicial factor of a blow-by-blow of media reporting,

a media circus, if you will, on a high-profile case, may be inimical to that goal of justice.

And then you'd look at the OJ case, and you'd look at some other cases where there have

been cameras in the courtroom, and, you know, I think it is a bit of a mixed bag, so I'll

just leave it at that.

No, I suddenly get what you're saying from that perspective.

I think in terms of this case, I'm not sure if there's any way to get it out from being

so high-profile, it just, it already is, as it comes down.

I did want to ask you, though, about the, because we were talking here about the Save

America Act, we've been talking about it here on the show for months, it feels like

now, you're focused as well on the voter rolls, and ultimately, yes, I know there's other

provisions of it.

This is all about trying to get bites on the same apple.

Would the Save America Act empower you at the Department of Justice to focus on these

voter rolls?

And can you tell us what are some of the issues that we are looking at in terms of the

voter rolls?

Well, Jack, as you know, for many years before I joined the department, I've been focused

on cleaning up our elections and increasing voter confidence, as well as doing that from

a partisan perspective, and of course, now that I'm at the DOJ, we aren't partisan, and

I don't even particularly take a position on pending legislation.

That said, we already have tools on the books that we are using here at the DOJ, some for

the first time, regarding our Attorney General's right under the 1960 Civil Rights Act to

access and review these voter rolls and then help states comply with their Help America

Vod Act federal law requirements.

We're doing that in multiple ways.

We're helping clean up the voter rolls, comparing them with some federal databases, returning returns

back to the states to help them do their jobs.

Some of the states are doing that voluntarily.

Some of them are resisting doing their jobs, and they're, you know, I think obvious reasons

for why they're resisting.

But there's other aspects of the Help America Vod Act.

We're reminding states preemptively that if they don't do certain things, they could

be in violation.

Some states have some funky record keeping loopholes, if you will, like Minnesota is vouching

standard.

That allows one voter to vouch for up to state eight other voters regarding their address,

which is Dululu and inconsistent with the federal law.

And so, you know, we're in pre-litigation discussions with them to try to get them to

drop that.

Some other states have been back and forth with us, including North Carolina, which has

a consent decree.

And Arizona, who we're talking to regarding some irregularities in their voter registration

procedures that have led to people being put on the voter rolls without any form of verification

that there are citizens.

And that's a violation of federal law for federal elections.

And so, it's just a lot of record keeping and admin type work that simply prior administrations

haven't wanted to do to the contrary, prior administrations, particularly Democrat administrations

have actually sued states that have tried to clean up their voter rolls voluntarily.

I mean, Georgia had a, I think, shambolic election in 2020.

And as a result of that, they passed some legislation to clean up their act.

And then, of course, what did the Merritt Garland do?

He went and sued them over that to punish them for cleaning it up.

And so, states get it on both sides, and I get why some of them feel whiplash.

Because in the past, if they tried to take people off the voter rolls because they were dead

or hadn't voted for a number of years or maybe had moved, they got punished by the DOJ.

And now the DOJ is simply trying to follow the letter of the law and help states do that.

And make sure that, particularly in this age of ballots being sent on mass through the

males and many jurisdictions, some states vote entirely by male today, which, you know,

their rural or what have you, I think that's problematic.

And it's especially problematic when you don't have perfect or near perfect voter rolls.

And so every citizen is entitled to know that the vote they cast is going to count only

with other American citizens and only once and only in that one state.

Yet, that is not the standard that we've been applying in this country.

And so I'm really proud to be the leader of this effort here at the DOJ and have the

attorney general and the White House is backing on it.

Well, there's no question.

And you've absolutely been a leader on it.

Thank you so much, Harmeet.

And we'll have you right back over the break here, and that's the only continues.

Thank you.

All right, folks, Jack, Pacific, we're back live here, human events, daily, you know,

folks, I've been telling you something, you got to pay attention to what is happening

with the dollar, the debt, central banks, it all piles up.

And when things get rocky, gold has always been the safe haven, but now gold isn't just

defensive.

It's an offensive asset.

That's why I've been working with my partners that are the agents gold for the last three

years.

They will help you protect your savings and your retirement with real physical gold and

silver, not paper promises.

Now, right now, allegiance gold, they're making it even better.

you want another great America first organization.

In addition to the 1% that you already qualify for, so you can protect your wealth and support

I want to get on very excited to have the external director of early vote action as well as

the senior fellow for APP, Paul Scanlon joins us here at Human Events Daily.

Paula, how are you?

I'm good.

It's good to be back with you, Jack.

Well, it's great to have you on, by the way, I've got to commend the fact, you know,

you guys over to early vote action with Scott Pressler.

You're working so hard and have had so much success on the Save Act.

I'm sure you're working hard behind the scenes.

Do you have any information for us, update-wise, on the Save Act, on the Save Act as it stands

right now?

I know Scott's been putting a lot out.

I don't have any updates, but all I will say is it's something that needs to be passed.

So I urge the Senate to get that done.

I really don't understand what delay is.

I think it's disappointing for us as American citizens that have voted for things like this.

But I guess we'll see if it passes, but it's needed and it's necessary.

And I urge, again, all of the people in the Senate to get this done.

It's 100% correct.

And I love what's got had put out before saying that, you know, it's possible that there's a consortium

of House members that are joining together saying that they're not, I saw a congressman

running Gil tweeting about this.

And I quoted him and spoke to him a little bit over the weekend saying that he's not

going to vote for any legislation that comes in the Senate that doesn't include the Save

America Act.

And we just had Harmi Dillon on.

She was talking about how bad our voter roles are in this country.

And the fact that you guys have looked at this, we know Scott has looked at it.

It's something where it's really simple.

Do we want secure elections or not?

We're going into midterms.

We've got a lot coming up in the midterms, a lot riding on this.

We need to be in a situation where only American voters are voting.

It's really simple.

You would think.

Yeah, exactly that.

I mean, this is something that I don't understand why people are against it.

Of course, the Democrats, every time there's an issue that I'm looking at something,

thinking it's bipartisan, whether it's what I went through with women's sports or call

it anything else, I'm looking at it saying this is a common sense thing.

Of course, only Americans should vote in American elections.

It's the case in pretty much every other democratic country in the entire world.

Yet, Democrats are suggesting that it's misogynistic somehow to say that we need voter

ID to be able to vote in elections.

There are so many things you need an ID to do in this country, voting should absolutely

be one of them.

And for whatever reason, if you can't figure it out and can't find the paperwork, I don't

know.

Maybe it's deserved that you can't vote.

It's really not that difficult.

Everyone's able to have one.

It's not racist.

It's not misogynistic yet.

Here we are having no idea why the Democrats keep pushing it.

It's because they want to cheat.

That's exactly because they want to cheat.

There's no question about that.

And the fact that the Senate Republicans, look, I get that the Democrats are going

to do that.

But what's the deal with the Senate Republicans, though, Paul, why won't the Senate Republicans

give this the interest, give this the level that it's due?

And it's taking so many people that have to push and put pressure on the Senate Republicans

and not all of them to be fair.

There's some great senators like Senator Mike Lee and others that have been fighting tooth

and nail for this.

But we shouldn't have to go to that level to get something that so common sense is this

past.

You know, exactly that.

I mean, as a voter that voted for and helped campaign for a lot of these people, unfortunately,

in my home state, there's no Republican senators.

So I can't say that it was my state that did this, but it's really upsetting to see what's

going on here.

And I think a lot of voters are very upset with this.

They're feeling like what they voted for to elect these officials is not getting done.

And so the only thing I can say is I just urge them to listen to the American people and

to do their job.

I mean, they are there to represent the people that voted them in.

And the lack of effort on this really makes us feel like that's not the case.

No, and this movement, whether you want to call it the MAGA movement, the American first

movement, whatever, if it's going to mean anything, just conservatism in general, it's

got to mean that American elections are secured by having only American people voting in

them.

And you got Chuck Schumer up there saying, well, he says the tens of millions of people

are going to lose access to voting if you pass the Save America Act.

But Chuck, I thought you told me that there were no illegals voting.

So which is it?

Exactly that.

When the story keeps changing, I really don't understand, again, what the drawbacks are

here for them.

But I think it just shows really how corrupt the voting is.

I mean, when I voted in Pennsylvania, when I was in college, I saw firsthand what was

going on here.

I saw people able to mail in a ballot and vote in person.

I mean, voter fraud is happening across this country.

During the election, I remember back in 2024, we were sitting there all on sand by hearing

stories of suppression, voter suppression, voter fraud in this country.

And it's something that's really upsetting that we have to look at.

And if we can't trust the outcomes of these votes, how can we trust anything that's going

on here?

So I think it's so important we clean this up.

Everyone should want this.

This should be bipartisan.

But yet, here we are, listen to Democrats calling it names, saying it somehow again, racist

and misogynist is all I keep hearing about this.

I do not understand how that is their answer to everything.

Let's just have secure elections and figure the rest out afterwards.

I don't understand why they're holding back here.

But again, they black common sense.

And I think that we've seen that over the years.

And I can't say that I'm surprised.

Well, look, this is the time for all the people who are in the grassroots, whether you

are someone who is a full-on Trump supporter, whether you're an independent, even if you're

a Democrat, doesn't matter.

We will accept you.

This is something that's about being an American.

And you've seen the polls on this thing.

It is an 85-15 issue.

It's a 90-10 issue.

This is something that polls unbelievably, it's across every demographic, people want

the Save America Act.

And Paula, even you look at yourself, even as a woman, you have found a way to be able

to register to vote.

I have.

I know it's shocking and surprising.

And also, as a so-called minority, I've also found a way to vote.

But I've registered in multiple states because I moved to a different state and was able

to re-register and vote.

Wow, what a shock.

You were able to move and vote again.

Paula, again, hold on a second.

I want to hold you over for where it will have Libby Emmons joining us here in the next

segment.

Human events continues.

Somehow these women just keep registering to vote.

I don't know how it is.

And wow, look at that shot from the White House.

You can see the storm is rolling in.

Wow, let's get this serious.

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 should be getting policies.

All right, Jack, Pacific, we're back.

Human events daily.

You see there, the live shot of the White House, this storm rolling in.

You can see the droplets there on our live screen, the tornado watch in effect for the

nation's capital.

President Trump still at work.

You also, I just noticed something.

I can't believe I didn't see this before.

The flags are down.

So you see the large flags, wow, look at that.

The large flags that President Trump added to the North and South lawns of the White

House have been taken down because they're predicting 60 to 70 miles.

And our winds, those would destroy those flags.

And so you're seeing those flags are down right now and we're going to keep, keep an eye

on this.

You know, people are looking for potential tornadoes and certainly high winds.

And that's something that absolutely do a lot of damage to flags.

I'm going to be in a Navy.

And it was the same exact protocol.

If you're going to have weather like that, you've got to take the flags down.

Folks, let me tell you something straight up, I'm a picky man.

I'm extremely picky about what I put in my body and what companies I support.

And one of those is blackout coffee.

Blackout coffee, they check every single box.

We're talking about a family run American company.

They roast fresh coffee right here in the U.S.

It's built by people who believe in, guess what, hard work, freedom in this country.

This year marks the 250th anniversary of the United States of America and blackout coffee

Really excited.

Now we're going to do a little bit of the panel here, human events, three up panel.

We've got Paula Scanlan that we held over and we're now bringing in Libby Emmons from

the Post millennial and human events.

Libby, how are you?

I'm good.

Jack.

Thanks.

So Libby, actually, let me, let me ask you this kind of a non sequitur from what we planned.

But the fact that and I have to get your take on this, the fact that Tyler Robinson and

his lawyers were openly attacking the letter that you and I wrote to the court, which set

off in motion this entire chain of events about having cameras in the courtroom.

Erica came out and in an interview and said that she wants cameras in the courtroom.

She then saw multiple media organizations filing motions regarding this.

Why is Tyler Robinson's legal team going after human events by name over this issue?

Because they don't want cameras in the courtroom and they know that we made really good arguments

and they don't want anyone to hear those arguments and that's why they are really interested

in obfuscating this trial as much as possible in making sure that the American people do not

see what goes on in the courtroom.

They have been obsessed with preventing press from having any information about the trial.

They really don't like how it's been portrayed on social media and they don't like how it's

been portrayed in the press.

And those are things that they can't control.

They can't control the press.

First amendment rights.

And so they're trying to control what goes on in the courtroom and making sure that people

can't see it.

And that's right.

I think that's right.

And again, we saw that picture of him smirking in the courtroom and they can't control their

client.

And that's why they want to ban him and block him from the cameras.

This smirk that he has on his face, they can't control it.

It's as simple as that.

So we'll do a little bit of a round robin, Paula Scanlon.

I wanted to ask you now, one of the headlines that we keep getting in over and over, Gen Z

and the war, Gen Z and the war, the reaction of Gen Z to the Iran strikes,

to the situation in Iran, everything that's going on over there, wanted to kind of get

your take on that.

You run in these circles yourself.

What are you hearing?

You know, yeah, there's a lot of people who are very against it.

And I understand that I think in general, right, when we look at wars, young people are

generally less likely to be pro-war because first, if there's some type of draft, right,

they also be the people going in, they're more concerned about things going on at home

because they're young in their careers or they can't afford homes.

And it makes sense why young people generally speaking are against wars.

But I will say on this particular issue, is I, as a 26-year-old, will never once imagine

to know the level of intel and information that President Trump has as his administration.

Okay, there's plenty I do not know about Iran.

And I don't think I know enough to have a strong opinion to say, you know, this is what

Trump should be doing.

I'm in no position to be, to know more than the President of the United States of America.

And so I will say about Gen Z, is that something a lot of people don't consider?

There's a lot that people who are voicing these opinions do not know in specific and

are still able to freely say which they should be allowed to, but I do understand also

that Gen Z people in general, again, are not seeing the full picture here.

They're not the President.

They don't have the same information he does.

And so that can kind of explain this mismatch going on here.

And it's not surprising, again, young people are always sort of in this position and this

does not shock me in the slightest.

And no, it doesn't.

Libby Emmons, you're someone who participated in the anti-war movement in 2003 for Iraq.

What does your take here?

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of foreign wars and I'm not a big fan of this one.

I wasn't a big fan of Iraq either.

I will say that now that we are involved in this, my primary interest in is making sure

that the U.S. comes out on top and that our troops come home safely.

And that is really my entire concern here.

And I think that there will be plenty of time after this is over, hopefully it's over

in a short period of time.

And Trump had said at the outset, four to five weeks, we're coming up on that, where

I think in the third week now.

So we'll see how that goes.

He's also said that it's open-ended and we've seen from St.

Com that they are preparing for this to go through September.

I don't know that the American people have the stomach for a long drawn out conflict

in the Middle East.

I'm not sure that that's going to be what people are interested in voting for when it comes

to the 2026 midterms.

I do know that the American people are heartful enough and smart enough to know that an escalation

like this is best when the America wins and that what's best for our troops is what's

best for the country.

Certainly is.

Now I want to jump topics again here on our round robin panel to the Oscars.

And I wanted to play this clip from the Oscars last night.

Let's throw it up guys.

I should warn you tonight could get political, okay?

And if that makes you uncomfortable, there's an alternate Oscars being hosted by Kid Rock.

Yeah.

It's at the David Buster's down the street.

A lot of tickets for that.

All right.

So, Libby Emmons, you know, we just, what's up, producer Fahs?

Good to see you on hanging out there.

And Libby Emmons wanted to ask you, what's going on?

Why is it that Conan O'Brien, just in a few words, is going after the turning point

and half time show?

And, yeah, I thought it was actually a win for turning point that we went after the

half time show.

And if there was a kid Rob hosted David Buster's awards ceremony down the street, I would

totally go to that and I would get in some ski ball while I was there.

Yeah.

The Conan O'Brien had a laugh at turning points expense and it wasn't really at their

expense because turning point did such a kick ass job on their half time show.

And also it speaks to the fact that most Americans are not particularly interested in

watching these lavish awards ceremonies.

We all know that they're getting like thousands and thousands of dollars and little gift bags

backstage and that they love onboarding themselves.

These special prizes, you know, and I think most of us are not that interested in watching

them do it anymore.

Paula Scanlon, when it comes to Gen Z, when it comes to you, do the Oscars still rate

the way they used to?

You know, I didn't even know the Oscars were happening.

Guys, off screen before we started this segment, I actually asked, what are the Oscars

for?

Is this acting or music?

Because I had no idea.

I might be the exception.

I've never once followed these Hollywood events.

Do you know what I spent my night doing last night watching Selection Sunday and thinking

about what I'm going to be doing in my March Madness bracket?

So maybe this is just telling for me, but I think that these out of touch Hollywood celebrities

doing much of anything is not something I'm interested in.

I looked through the list of winners for this Oscars and I'm going to be honest.

I have never seen one of the movies that were involved and I haven't even heard of most

of the actors who have won these awards.

And so maybe that's just me, but it's not something that really piqued my interest.

And again, that making jokes like that, I wouldn't even have known that if you hadn't

showed me that clip.

No, exactly.

And they're just jealous because at the end of the day, we had double, I'm looking at

this.

We had double the ratings of the Oscars.

We had 40 million in first 24 hours.

That's households, by the way.

They're lucky if they broke 19 the Oscars.

And by the way, I'm just going to say it, they've become the award show for the most anti-white,

woke film that people can make.

Paula Scanlon, the VMN's, thank you so much for joining us here today, human events.

Right back guys, that storm continues.

Wow, look at it down there at the White House.

This storm is really serious.

The Jack Pasobic Appreciation Hour, I can say confidently, I believe, I think Josh Shapiro

would be the vice presidential nominee if it wasn't for Jack Pasobic.

And that is, I'm going to be honest.

All right folks, Jack Pasobic back live, human events daily, real America's voice.

And folks, guys, leave that shot up.

Look at this.

This is the White House right now.

The flags are down.

Now, we don't have control over this shot, but I want to look at the trees a little bit

to see whether or not the trees are starting to whip back and forth.

We know the storm is expected to be hitting the White House with full force here just

in the next couple of minutes.

And so you look at what's going on, that's why the flags are down, of course.

But the president is still at work.

The president could have stayed down in Florida.

The president could have obviously worked in the Southern White House, the Winter White

House.

Still a little bit of winter, I suppose, but it's, you know, very, very closely the first

day of spring and Saturday.

So president is hard at work while the storm commences there at the White House.

But yes, those large flags, those large flags removed there at the White House, I wanted

to get into something that I discussed while making my media rounds this morning that

one of the things that people have been saying and I keep hearing this back and forth regarding

the Iran situation has to do with boots on the ground.

Where are the boots on the ground, what's going on?

Is this marine expedition unit, which is headed?

So what's currently happening is the marine expedition unit, which is the 31st, they're

based out of Japan, they were conducting operations in Asia, they are now speeding and

steaming at full speed, you know, not quite flank speed, but certainly very quickly through

the straight of Malacca down through Malaysia and then up to the Persian Gulf, where they

will arrive in about a week's time, or so maybe about a week, week and a half at that

speed, they're going to pick up a couple of littoral combat craft and some others to bring

them on board and then they will be on station to be able to provide what the president would

refer to in the military community as optionality, optionality will be given to the president

regarding boots on the ground.

And the biggest piece that everyone's talked about over and over, they keep saying, well,

we need boots on the ground potentially for Carg Island, that Carg Island is necessary

to be taken so that the Iranian economy will then be severed from the Iranian leadership.

And Carg Island wise is important because 90% of Iran's oil flows through this island,

an island processing center, just up the coast of Iran, where they then have the ability

to load and offload their ships and those ships then are sent out through the straight

of Hormuz, down through the Gulf, out through the straight, and then on predominantly towards

China.

So this is a key node in China's energy resources.

And why does this matter?

They're belt and road initiative because this entire thing, if you look at Ukraine, you

look at Iran, what's it really all about China and Russia?

And President Trump has always said that everything is about China and Russia and getting

them on sides.

It's also why early this morning you heard what Carg Island levied, press secretary,

and then secretary Bessent both sort of came out and said, looks like that meeting that

was planned for later this month or in April is going to be postponed.

The meeting between President Trump and Xi Jinping, which was meant to take place, by

the way, in Beijing, in China.

So President was going to fly to China.

It looks like that at the moment has been taken off the cards.

And one, it was not in the cards, but I want to talk about the Carg Island situation

and as pertains to the Persian Gulf so that everyone can get some understanding on this.

This is key because it's being presented in the media as some sort of binary situation

that either President Trump has to put boots on the ground or he has to destroy all of the

oil infrastructure of Carg Island, which is located in the Persian Gulf.

We've got numerous maps on this.

And what we can do then is to say, well, Mr. President, you've got to choose one or the

other, either destroy all the infrastructure of put boots on the ground, destroy all the

oil infrastructure of put boots on the ground.

There's only two options.

And obviously, the reason being is that they want boots on the ground.

There's a lot of people like Lindsey Graham, who's been gestor-gooning for a wider war,

who wants the mission creep, who wants boots on the ground, who wants to see the U.S.

engulfed and entrenched in a much wider war in Iran with those boots on the ground,

which of course would certainly come under fire because Carg Island could potentially

be under direct artillery fire because it's within range of Iranian conventional artillery,

not dimension drones, not dimension missiles, etc., etc.

But are those really the only two options?

I don't think so.

And this is something where the tactical and the strategic picture are actually connected.

So let's talk tactics for a second here.

What is the goal?

What's the operational goal?

Well, if the operational goal here is to sever the oil flow, there's a couple options that

you could be given that the President of the United States has on his desk today if he wants them.

Number one, the peer itself, you don't have to be a Navy intelligence officer to know

that the U.S. Navy can take out a peer.

We've been doing it for 200 years.

You can take out the peer and then guess what?

The boat can't park.

If the boat can't park, it's called mooring.

So if you take out its ability to moor, then the boat cannot be loaded with its cargo,

in this case, oil.

So there are many ways to neutralize the island without having to take out these wider facilities.

This, of course, could apply to numerous other implements there.

And by the way, if they try to repair the peers,

well, all you have to do is go take out the repair ship, too.

I mean, it's really not that hard.

This actually can be done from the air.

There's no real necessity for this whatsoever to be done by boots on the ground

or from like a carpet bombing situation.

So I don't really get why people are trying to say that.

From a technical perspective, I know why they're saying it from a strategic perspective

because they want something else.

And that's one of the problems that you have in any of these situations that people don't

actually say what they mean.

They say something else because they don't want to say what their truth is.

So you don't need boots on the ground to take cargo islands,

neutralize them and take them out of the fight.

That's number one.

Also, by the way, cyber, cyber-offensive capabilities could be used here very quickly.

So anything that has a computer in it that has to do with the loading and unloading of oil

and any of the ships out of Iran, you could fry it in a second.

Israel themselves did this all the way back in 2010 when they used the stuck-step virus.

It was sort of a worm to shut down Iran's oil infrastructure or excuse me,

their nuclear research program was easily done and done so overnight by getting

this virus into their systems.

Really simple.

You could do that as well for cargo islands.

Now they don't have the ability to load the ships because the computers can't talk to each other.

Now there's other options as well.

So if you're talking about the oil flow, if that's really what you're going after,

why target the island at all?

Use the straight-of-war moves to your benefit because all of the oil that is going to be coming

from cargo island also has to go through the maritime choke point of the straight-of-war moves.

And so what could you do then?

You could seize the oil.

The same way that we've seen the United States Navy remember.

Just a couple of months ago, the US Navy was seizing those Venezuelan tankers,

the Russian ghost fleet was being seized up in the Northern Atlantic and places not too far off

the coast of Greenland by the way, so many other areas.

So again, this choke point is a problem for the Iranians as well.

It's a risk for them as well.

Seize the oil.

Just seize it.

It's really simple.

And then if China wants it, guess what?

China could cut a deal with the Americans because that's exactly what the President wants.

He wants China to come to the negotiating table.

Now of course, the President knows this.

The President knows everything that's going on.

He knows that he's using these key leverage points as well as he conducts this operation.

We're now entering week three of it.

So we'll do questions of the day tomorrow.

We didn't do one today, but question of the day for tomorrow will be as follows.

How do you feel about the Iran operation as we enter week three?

And our email is 1776 at humanevents.com, 1776 at humanevents.com.

How do you feel about the Iran operation as we enter week three?

President of the United States clearly has a plan in place.

President Trump is a generational leader.

President Trump is a transformative leader.

When you have a generational leader, a transformative leader,

you are going to require.

You're going to absolutely require change.

You're going to need change.

And through that change,

that we get great things.

By the way, guys, throw that shot of the White House up again.

I think I actually thought I just saw a lightning flash there.

I'm not sure.

But we know the storm is definitely hitting.

We know the storm is getting hot and heavy there tonight in today.

I should say I'm Washington D.C.

And it certainly will be continuing tonight.

So pray for the President.

Pray for everyone who's in the storms.

The storms weigh and certainly pray for our troops who are in harm's way as well

as the troops that are on their way to harm's way.

Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
