Democrats in the Senate are trying to stop potential conflict in Cuba, but they failed in passing a measure to rein in the President's power to use military force. And it comes as the administration's rhetoric directed at the Caribbean country has grown increasingly hostile. Senate Democrats have tried and failed multiple times in recent weeks to rein in Trump's war powers amid the war with Iran. The Supreme Court has just released a major decision which could have a profound impact on the midterm elections. The justices issuing a ruling on a case out of Louisiana involving the Voting Rights act redistricting and whether states must end any consideration of race. When redrawing congressional maps the decision, potentially reducing the influence of minority voters and minority representation in Congress.
Jack Posobiec
Do you have proof that the former FBI director knowingly and willfully threatened the life of the president?
Acting Attorney General Blanche
The grand jury indicted Mr. Comey yesterday. Grand juries hear evidence. That evidence is not something that, that anybody can talk about today. But when you talk about whether proof exists, the proof that we have is in the fact that the grand jury returned an indictment. Remember, that is not the Department of Justice charging James Comey with a crime. That is a grand jury returning a two count indictment. Let's do a compare and contrast.
Jack Posobiec
Mr. Blanch. In 2022, someone well known in right wing circles, Jack piscobic posted on x 8646. He did not take it down. He did not apologize. Mr. Comey has done both of those things. The Biden Justice Department never prosecuted him. By the standard of that grand jury, Jack Poskobie should face charges as well. Will the Justice Department pursue that case? Because they sound very similar.
Acting Attorney General Blanche
That's just completely not true. That's not how a grand jury does its work. They don't just look at a single image and then say, ok, yes, we'll indict or. Okay, no, we won't indict. They do an investigation. This conduct took place in May of last year, May 15. It has been almost a year. I assure you the FBI, the Secret Service and the U.S. attorney's office have not been sitting around doing nothing. They have been investigating. I have no idea whether there was an investigation into the other times that that post has been made and whether that investigation yielded different results. This investigation that we undertook resulted in a two count indictment.
Jack Posobiec
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events daily. Today is April 29, 2026 Anno Domini. James Comey is currently being indicted down in court. He's turned himself in in North Carolina. Whereas CBS News, as you saw this morning, was pushing Acting Attorney General Blanche and asking, why hasn't he indicted me? Why hasn't he indicted Jack Posobec? Conservative commentator, author, former Navy intelligence veteran. Well, Blanche pointed out that the context matters, that the investigation matters, that intent matters, the grand jury's work matters. And so as everyone of the Human Events audience remembers that in 2021 and 2022, we did a series called the Shade War Updates and it was all about whether or not Kamala Harris would launch the 25th amendment on Joe Biden. Every conservative was talking about 25th amendment on Biden or impeaching Biden. That was the context. Donald Trump faced two assassination attempts in 2020. This is two years later. So 2022, 2024, Butler and Palm beach. Change the context. And oh, by the way, we just had a third assassination attempt Saturday night less than one week ago. But people will say, well, hold on, how do you know? How do you know what? You still have to prove intent somehow. What is the way that we can prove intent with James Comey? Well, I'm more than happy to be able to do that. What was James Comey's Instagram post immediately before his post about the numbers? Everyone talks about the number post, but everyone misses the post. That was right before it. We've got that post for you right now. It's James Comey on a beach. And what is he doing? He's reading a book called FDR Drive. Now why does this matter? Well, FDR Drive is a book that James Comey himself wrote. It's a novel. He put it out. And what is the context of it? Was the content, the plot? Political assassinations is the plot. So James Comey writes a book about political assassinations and then he puts up the content and a link to buy his book. Along with the description of the book immediately after his post, about 8,647. This is why if you read the indictment, which nobody in media has done, the second part of the indictment is a section all about proceeds, proceeds derived from the offense. Under federal law, you cannot derive proceeds from a crime. He made money, ladies and gentlemen, by selling a book, by selling a novel about political assassinations. That's why he made this inciting comment, to rile up the members of the far left by making this comment, this inciting comment about President Trump. He knew that there would be media attention and he knew that this would spark interest in his book, which again, was about political assassinations. That's why that's the second count of the indictment. That's why he has to forfeit his property derived from the proceeds of an offense. And that is why, ladies and gentlemen, we can see the intent and the motive for James Comey here directly tied to his book sales about political assassination. Be right back with more Jack Posobic, Human Events Daily. Nothing will stand in our way. And our golden age has just begun.

So here we go. Here we go. We're doing the ghostbeds for Mother's Day. Couldn't be more excited. Wanted to switch gears a little bit. Since we're talking legal cases today, since we're talking criminal cases, someone that we've I've personally wanted to have on the show for weeks now, probably months at this point. Andrea Burkhart joins us. You guys may have seen her. She's all over Law Tube. She's been covering so many cases. But one in particular that sparks our interest is, of course, the Tyler Robinson case. She also has a substack that I hope you guys check out because it is phenomenal. And she's got all the hard documents, the evidence, the filings are all there. Andrea, how are you?
Andrea Burkhart
Very good. Thanks so much for having me.
Jack Posobiec
Thank you just seriously so much for the tireless work that you do, because I've seen you do some of these hearings. What is the longest hearing that you've live streamed at this point?
Andrea Burkhart
Probably in the ballpark of 10 to 11 hours.
Jack Posobiec
Oh, my gosh. Because you'll. And the hearings will end and then you'll still, you know, you'll do commentary for another hour, hour and a half, two hours. I've seen.
Andrea Burkhart
Yeah, it's not uncommon. I mean, a lot can happen in a full day of court. And part of what I'm trying to do, I've been a practicing criminal defense lawyer for almost 20 years. And so I'm just trying to bring a little bit of insight into just the parts of the process that if you're not a lawyer, you may not be aware of, you may not understand kind of how things are unfolding the way that they are, why certain decisions are made and so forth. So I just find, especially in this day and age where there's a lot of interest in the criminal justice process, which I find very gratifying and hope to kind of help just make it a little bit more accessible for people that are interested in cases.
Jack Posobiec
Well, no, I think that's great. And you do such a great job of breaking it down. You know, one of the ones that we've seen, though, with Tyler Robinson specifically is, you know, this is a case, and obviously, you know, myself, all the colleagues, you know, we're very close to this one. But, you know, the level, I think of misinformation on this case has gotten really high and very, very rapidly. Whereas to me, it seemed to me that the evidence in the case was pretty straightforward and that, you know, I Kind of thought, you know, through what I thought the, you know, the legal challenges might be, what the defense might be, and it's actually kind of, kind of what we've seen play out. To say the truth like this is pretty much what I expected because. And, but I'll throw it to you. When you look at the defense's strategy thus far in the case, I don't see very much example, at least for them, of arguing about whether or not evidence is for or against him. I seem to, it seems to be more delay procedure, whether certain evidence is allowed in that type of thing. Do you get what I'm saying?
Andrea Burkhart
I do. And you know, when you're a criminal defense lawyer, it's part of the reason why I started doing what I do is I want to help people understand what exactly that means and what the job is. Criminal defense lawyers tend to not be particularly popular in just the world at large. And I think a lot of that is just based on a misunderstanding of what the role entails. You get the case that is presented to you, and some of those cases give you a lot to work with. Some of the cases give you much less to work with. And so your role in a case case can be anything from, you know, vigorously fighting to, to establish the innocence of a client that you sincerely believe didn't commit the crime, to explaining to your client what it's going to be like to be processed into prison and how parole works and things along those lines. So it's all very fact dependent. But after the time that I've spent in practice, you get pretty accustomed to being able to read initial documents, probable cause affidavits and things like that and get a pretty good sense of what you're going to have to work with in a case versus what you're not. And so this case in particular, the probable cause affidavit, it is a representation of the evidence that the state anticipates being able to present, of course, isn't the evidence itself, but it's a representation that this is what they're going to be able to establish. And so if they are able to do that, if they're able to deliver on what they represent they have in these charging documents, this is a, this is a quite a strong case against Tyler Robinson. It doesn't leave a whole lot of opportunity to argue factual innocence. And so the only way that the defense is likely to be able to create room for themselves to get there is through these efforts to kind of challenge, for example, the validity of some of the scientific evidence. We've had previews from the defense that some of these issues they expect to litigate concerning DNA evidence, concerning ballistics evidence, and things along those lines. And so the more they can chip away at the evidence that is actually going to be presented to a jury to be part of its decision, then the better opportunity they may have to be able to identify some reasonable doubt, some reasons for a jury to acquit. But if those efforts are not successful, then they're very likely going to be in a situation which is quite often the case in death penalty cases, where your main focus is simply going to be trying to save this individual's life, that there isn't necessarily a good case to be made for, for factual innocence. But the goal is to simply avoid the death sentence, present the mitigating circumstances, present the jury with the reasons why they should not choose death as a consequence.
Jack Posobiec
And so what you're talking about, this is all in the context and, and just for, I get what you're saying, but for the folks of, you know, that may not have followed the cases closely, you're talking about, will certain elements of the evidence be allowed to be entered in the trial? Because at this point, there's no jury, there's no date for a trial to be set, and we haven't even had the preliminary hearing. So all of these fights are going to be about what that future jury is allowed to see and to weigh as evidence for or against the guilt of Tyler Robinson in this case. And that's why, and to your point, this is very similar to what you would see in other capital cases where there are going to be fights over the validity of testing of DNA, of ballistics, of all of these things. Is that test, you know, is that a new type of science, is that a new type of evaluation, etc. Etc. Where, you know, where they're going to be looking at. I'm sure there's going to be questions about surveillance cameras and footage and the technology that was used for all sorts of things, but ultimately that's just about getting it into the actual trial, which hasn't even started yet.
Andrea Burkhart
Absolutely. In fact, Tyler Robinson. This is often one of the things that isn't understood. Tyler Robinson hasn't even entered a plea at this point in time under Utah law.
Jack Posobiec
By the way, is that usual or is that like a Utah thing?
Andrea Burkhart
It's not terribly unusual. I don't think that it's unique to Utah, but it's based on this idea that because they have not used a grand jury to kind of review and invalidate these charges being brought based on the evidence that the state purports to have that at this point there is nothing really formal for him to answer to. And so until the preliminary hearing has been held and the judge has made a determination, yes, there is sufficient evidence here to find probable cause to believe that this individual committed the crime. He's not required to, you know, formally enter, enter a plea until that happens. So it rem, you know, at least theoretically possible that, that, that could fail and he would, he would never have to enter a plea on the case. The case would simply be dismissed for insufficient evidence. That said, given, you know, what we anticipate from these charging documents, the evidence is going to be that that seems pretty unlikely.
Jack Posobiec
And the bar, of course is, I mean this is, this is pretty much the highest bar that you're going to need if you're actually going for the death penalty, which they are. They need to hit every single piece of this. And by the way, not just in this trial, but also at every level of review and appeal, which of course will inevitably come.
Andrea Burkhart
Oh, absolutely. I think that one of the things that is important to bear in mind with a case like this, any type of death penalty case, but here is where Utah in particular, it may be an issue is that the process of appeal and post conviction relief through the, the, the federal courts, this can be not just a years long process, but a decades long process. As we sit here today, I believe the person who is serving the longest term on death row at this point in time is, is Michael Archuleta. He has been on death row for 36 years and his case is still under post conviction review. It's currently having hearings in the, in the superior Court. It was sent back down to superior court, federal court to kind of take evidence and make certain factual findings. And so once it goes back up to superior to a district court, then it will work its way again through the federal appellate process. So these things, they don't happen quickly. And they're also what the defense lawyers have in mind right now in Tyler Robinson's case is they're making their choices
Jack Posobiec
about how they know the process because it's their state, they know. Andrew Burkhart, we are coming up on a hard break. Let me put a pin in that. Come back with you. This is fascinating stuff. A preview and an understanding of how the case against Tyler Robinson will unfold. Human Events Daily. Right back today.
Kirk Cameron
You know, they talk about influencers. These are influencers and they're friends of
Jack Posobiec
mine, Jacksonvik where's Jack? Got a great job. All right, folks, Jack back live, Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice. And we're on with Andrea Burkhart here, and we're talking about Tyler Robinson. So, Andrew, you, you mentioned before, and you've done such an incredible job on your sub stack of uploading the documents, the, that have been unsealed as they come out again and again. You're the very first to break the preliminary ballistics report, which of course has been, you know, has been all over media since you did that. And I just kind of wanted to, to go through some of that with you because to your point, we have summaries, we have a good idea of what the, the evidence is going to be. We're getting more of that now as certain things are being unsealed. For example, we got this letter, this handwritten letter. It's a photo of her letter that was, that was released, I believe it was in one of the unsealed search warrants recently that we had had a reference to in the probable cause document. But now we actually have the full letter. So do you anticipate that more of this evidence is going to be made public as we get closer to the hearing?
Andrea Burkhart
I do. And that's fairly typical for a criminal case that unfolds in this manner where you have a really short period of time between a suspect being identified and the suspect being arrested. And that's because a lot of the investigation in those types of cases doesn't really take place until after the charge has been filed. So you have what's public is kind of the, the initial bare bones of what the prosecution had to get them to that probable cause step. But it's often very far from the end of the story when it comes to the, the full picture of guilt or innocence of that particular defendant. So it's very, very common to, as the case goes on and more and more information is obtained, information starts being brought up through court processes, litigation, and just otherwise makes its way into the public record.
Jack Posobiec
Right. For example, because I keep hearing people say, oh, well, there's, there's no video of this. There's no video of that. Where's this video? Where's that video? And yet we do see references through these documents. And I believe it came up in the, in the previous hearing, the most recent hearing, that, that there were other videos of Tyler Robinson. And so the presumption isn't necessarily at this point that all of the video has been released. In fact, it's that it will be released at the hearing.
Andrea Burkhart
Yeah. And frankly, even at the hearing, it's. It's likely to just be a portion of what they have. We know from the conversations about discovery that they have somewhere in the ballpark of 24 terabytes of video, video evidence just from UVU's surve cameras alone. They have footage from neighboring ring cameras. It's very common in cases like this as well, to do what they call a video canvas. And so they would identify, like, routes that Tyler Robinson would have taken, either because it's the logical route or because they have obtained his location information from his cell phone or from his. His vehicle and navigation system or something like that, and then go and obtain video evidence from those sources. As we can anticipate, there is a huge volume of video evidence that's in the possession of law enforcement, but simply hasn't been made public because we haven't gotten to that point in this court process yet.
Jack Posobiec
And so what do you say then to folks? And I saw you kind of going back and forth with a few people who have had these questions to say, well, oh, well, the video hasn't been released yet, therefore, there isn't any video. But ultimately, this is the way the system works is kind of, you know, for better or worse. But that sort of is the answer, right?
Andrea Burkhart
It absolutely is. I mean, we hold trials in the courtroom, not. Not in. In the public, public square. The. The process needs to be fair to the defendant. And part of that includes having a jury that hasn't already made up their minds because they've already had everything that the parties have vetted in. In the media. There. There's obviously a lot we. We just talked about between what. What parties have or what they purport to have versus what ultimately gets presented to a jury. Some things may ultimately not be admissible for. For one reason or another, so it wouldn't be appropriate for the jury to be making a decision based on that type of information. But if it's all out in the public, you can't unring a bell. You can't take that out of your mind once you've been exposed to it. So this is just a. A fundamental aspect of. Of due process in criminal cases that we preserve these types of issues for the courtroom. And that's reflected in the ethical rules that apply to attorneys when it comes to making statements about cases or sharing information about cases. It's also reflected in this particular case in the gag order that the judge has entered on the attorneys and on the law enforcement investigators precisely for this purpose. To prevent them from sharing information that isn't already being made public through the court process itself.
Jack Posobiec
And so we, we talked a little bit. You said the DNA evidence, obviously that's going to be something that's, that's challenged in a number of ways. They're going to try to chip away at it. But, but there's more than just DNA evidence here, too. I mean, there, there's things like fingerprints, which is a much more, much more traditional form of identification. And ultimately, and I just keep coming back to this, it's going to be that role of, of the parents, the family members and his significant other who apparently are going to be testifying in this upcoming hearing. I mean, that to me, isn't something that, that you see a lot in these types of cases.
Andrea Burkhart
You definitely don't. And it's, it's extremely, powerfully persuasive evidence just because people can look at their own, their own experiences, their own kind of common sense, and what would I do in this type of situation? And I think most people can relate to having a, you would, you would probably believe almost anything to, like, avoid reaching the conclusion that your child was capable of committing a crime like this. And so to be in a position where the parents apparently are so, you know, deeply persuaded, where the significant other is so deeply persuaded that they would present that information to law enforcement, that they would assist him in involuntarily surrendering for criminal prosecution. You're right. This is not the type of thing that you, you see in everyday cases. And it is likely to be, I think, particularly persuasive.
Jack Posobiec
No, I, I just, I keep coming back to it. And, and when people bring up, you know, you know, this thing or that thing, and then, and sure, there's, there's going to be a lot of that, as you, as you say, the chipping around the edges, that there are these huge factors that you really can't, can't get around. And it's going to be very tough to try to convince a jury otherwise when you have someone's own mother and father saying what they're going to say. And we'll see, of course, certainly the, the hearing is yet to come. One more segment with Andrea Burkhart right after this break. Jack Sobic, Human Events Daily. And Jack, Where's Jack?

getting policies topic back. Live human events daily. Folks. You know the government has been medicating our water for over 80 years with. With fluoride. And by the way, this isn't because you asked for it or because you voted for it. It's because, well, they decided you need it. Well, it's not a decision I want someone else making for my family, which is why I filter every drop of water in my home with COVID pure. Over 209 million Americans are on fluoride water right now. Here's what the science actually shows. In September 2024, a federal judge ruled that adding fluoride to water poses, and I'm quoting the court directly, an unreasonable help risk to neurological health. Not a fringe study. A federal court ordering the EPA to act. Then in January 2025, a study published by JAMA Pediatrics, one of the most respected medical journals in the world, confirmed the link between fluoride exposure and children's IQ scores. The higher the exposure, the lower the iq. Sure, some states are moving on this. Utah, Florida, they banned it. But that process takes years. Your kids, your family, they're drinking this water today. You need something that works. Works. Now that's exactly what Cove Pure is. It's clear wave reverse osmosis technology. It's certified to remove up to 99.9% of contaminants. Fluoride, PFAS, lead, pharmaceuticals, heavy metals. Anything that isn't water gets filtered out. Don't wait for the government to catch up. Go and get yourself a Cove Pure. Use our link. It's covpure.com poso for 250 off c o v e p u-r e.com poso My kids love it, by the way. We call it super water. And we were. We've been filling up a lot of bottles for little league baseball with super water. Thanks to our Cove Pure, the kids have been doing great at baseball too. We're on with Andrew Burkhart. Our final segment here. Andrew, I want to ask you. So we have this upcoming. It's, it's. It's a webex hearing. So it's not the full court hearing, but the judge graph is expected to make a couple of rulings here on May 8. One regarding cameras in the courtroom and then another regarding a potential delay of the preliminary hearing. I'll let you take it in whatever order you prefer, but what, what do you think we should expect out of this upcoming set of rulings?
Andrea Burkhart
So first off, the timing of the preliminary hearing this is an issue that's going to be of critical importance to the parties that are appearing before that court. Of course, if the, if the preliminary hearing is going to go forward as it's currently scheduled, which is, I believe in third week of May, they need to know that right away they have witnesses that they would need to get under subpoena. They, they need to make travel arrangements, do, do all of those types of preparations. So I expect a prompt and rapid ruling from the court on that particular issue. I am not expecting just based on his questions and the arguments that were presented at, at the last hearing where these, these issues were argued. I'm not expecting him to continue the preliminary hearing to the parties to the effect of keep your feet, keep your foot on the accelerator, which tends to suggest a need to continue moving forward in the expectation of a rapid hearing. The more, I think, intriguing and bigger picture question is the one about the cameras in the courtroom. This has of course, been a issue that the defense has litigated quite extensively and just variety of different contexts and arguments that have been raised. They don't want this case receiving the
Jack Posobiec
type of publicity that it has and in one instance even, even decided to name drop our show Human Events, because we have been pushing so hard, you know, so ardently, and wrote this open letter where we were pushing for cameras in the courtroom. And I think we kind of got the ball rolling on a lot of this and they really didn't seem to like that. So they named name, checked us in court a couple hearings ago.
Andrea Burkhart
Yeah, they did. And they, they have been presenting just a vast volume of information about the, the kinds of commentary that is going on. They focus primarily on the mainstream, but they have also talked about podcasters and they've, they've referenced some, some conspiracy theories and, and things like that. So by and large, what the defense is really doesn't seem to like is frankly just the interest in the case, the commentary about it, the fact that people are discussing it and have opinions about it. And so they made what I think would be a particularly strong case for, you know, that public commentary can be damaging to Tyler Robinson's right to a fair trial. But the problem of course, is that the First Amendment right that we all enjoy to be able to not just see what is happening in our courtrooms, which is itself protected by the First Amendment, but of course, to talk about it and to discuss it and to say what we think about it and whether we think it's right or wrong or things need to be changed. So there's no real viable way to stop that from happening. And I think the problem the defense faces with this particular argument is that what they're trying to ban is just the raw feed of the courtroom proceeding that's happening. Our ability to be able to see what's going on in these court hearings as if we were sitting there in that courtroom ourselves. And that's just purely factual information that has frankly, a better chance of alleviating a lot of the misinformation about the case than eliminating the cameras would have. So I think they face a real uphill battle, not just because of these important First Amendment implications, but also because Utah itself is probably the most favorable state in the country when it comes to having cameras in the courtroom for precisely this reason. Transparency breeds trust in the process and it allows us to accept the, the integrity or to at least see for ourselves if there are issues that we're concerned about. If this is all happening behind closed doors, then that is a breeding ground for distrust.
Jack Posobiec
Well, and of course, I was commenting on your stream, as they mentioned this in the last hearing, where ultimately the defenses arguments over and over and over weren't actually about the live stream. They were just about people's comments following the live stream or people's opinions on the live stream, none of which the live stream causes. So you can have a live stream of a trial, which is something obviously that I've been calling for and Erica is called for and so many others. But that doesn't determine what someone's opinion is. And honestly that's also not the job of the court. So the idea that a judge is going to rule on this because people are having comments about a case, you know, this is the United States. We just don't do that here.
Andrea Burkhart
We don't. And I mean, the reality is that people are going to talk about the case anyway. And so would we rather they be talking about legitimate information or talking about, you know, opinions that they have based on what they heard from somebody who heard from somebody who watched something on YouTube somewhere? This is what makes us informed citizens and gives us the, the tools and the information that we need to, to be able to exercise our independent judgment about what's happening in the courtroom and whether think it's producing a just result or not.
Jack Posobiec
Well, and by the way, I would point out that there are other countries, like the U.K. for example, and President just had the king here yesterday. I think he might still be here actually, and which are very different in terms of this, and they do actually have limits on the public Commentary on cases which include even naming victims or in some cases naming perpetrators is completely illegal. So they have a completely different tradition than the United States under their law. It's actually something that makes us quite unique.
Andrea Burkhart
Very much so. And it all again goes back to that first amendment. The first amendment right to petition the government for grievances, for redress of grievances is what underlies many, many court decisions coming out of the U. S. Supreme court as well as the various circuit courts of appeal that hold that that right is what protects our ability to sit in a criminal court and watch what is going on. Because the criminal court process, it's such an important part of our government and it often gets overlooked in favor of congress or governors or things like that. But the criminal justice system, it's actions that are done in our name, they affect us most directly in terms of the deprivations of liberty, of, of property and so forth. And they implicate us because they bring us in as jurors to decide what is justice in this particular case.
Jack Posobiec
So just to sum up important that,
Andrea Burkhart
that we have the ability to continue to monitor that and to be heard about whether the system is working the way it's supposed to.
Jack Posobiec
Couldn't agree. Couldn't agree more. My wife commented to me once, we were watching a trial a couple of years ago and she, she was born in the Soviet Union before she came to the United States. And she said, I can't believe they let you do all this. I can't believe that you have a system like this. Because she's been in a place where they don't have a system like this. Andrew Burkhart, incredible wealth of knowledge. So honored to have you on where can people go to follow you and get smarter on this and so many other things.
Andrea Burkhart
So you can find me, as you mentioned on substack, it's Andrea Burkhart.substack.com that is where I maintain the legal archive of the documents in. In this particular that I collect. You can also find me on YouTube and on Twitter. My handle is at abracartlaw. Or you can just put in my name Andrea burkhart. And. And you'll find me where I'm livestreaming the hearings and the Tyler Robinson case and offering commentary as the situation develops.
Jack Posobiec
In other cases. She's great on other stuff. There's something going on another case. Give her a follow. You will like what you have. Have fun. Right back in events daily. So we're going to call this the Jack Posobic appreciation hour. I can say confidently, I believe, I think Josh Shapiro would be the vice presidential nominee if it wasn't for Jack Bock. And that is, I think. All right, folks are back. Jack Posobic, Human events daily, real America's voice, very excited, by the way. So we know America's 2 50th is coming up. We're just a couple of months away. We're in the year, year July 4th is coming. And what better way, especially if you've got young kids like I do, what better way to get them into the spirit of the 250th, the New Patriotic, not just book, but book series, miniseries, I guess you could say, coming out. And the first one is going to be by Kirk Cameron. He joins us now. Kirk, how are you?
Kirk Cameron
Hey, Jack, I'm doing so good. Thank you, man, for having me back on Human Events. And yeah, this is so exciting. It's America's 250th and I couldn't help but hear you talk in the last segment about how much your wife appreciates America. Like they let you do that stuff here. Like, I can't believe you guys have this kind of freedom. And the crazy thing is, and you met Tanya.
Jack Posobiec
You know that she is very, you know Tanya and you've met my kids, too. And you know that she's very, very genuine when she says that.
Kirk Cameron
Right. And so many people from other countries are so genuine in their appreciation for the freedoms that we have in Americ because they know what it's like when you don't have them. And young kids today are being raised to be embarrassed or to be ashamed and not proud of and not appreciate America, which is insane to me. And so this is an opportunity that we have to fight back against the extreme leftist narrative that's teaching kids to hate America and teach them to love America and to know why they love America again.
Jack Posobiec
So this is cool. So Built by the Brave, it's Brave books and this is your continue your partnership with them. But it's a new series in terms of a new continuity where there's new characters. It's set not in the fictional fantasy Freedom island universe, but it's set right here in the US of A. And I believe it's kind of a time travel series, a little sci fi action.
Kirk Cameron
Yeah, that's exactly right. Kids are gonna love it. It's so cool. And actually Dr. Ben Carson, Riley Gaines and I have teamed up. We're sort of like the dynamic 30 who have each put out a book and we've got signed Copies of them. Mine is called Built by the Brave. And it's about a little kid named Eli who thinks history is boring until somebody. His name is Liberty Man. On the monument to the forefathers, which I've talked about so much and traveled around teaching about. You've seen it. He comes to life and he takes little Eli in a time travel capsule to some of the most daring adventures in American history, to the. The stormy voyage on the Mayflower with the pilgrims, to the battle at Lexington Concord. And he learns that bravery is not the absence of fear, it's the conquering of it. And that America was not built by perfect people, just courageous ones. And Dr. Carson's talking about America built on faith. And Riley Gaines is teaching kids. Kids 1, 2, 3. We are free. So it's a super cool series. It's called the America Wins Bundle. And this is how we take back the narrative inside the home reading to your kids, where the real battle is fought.
Jack Posobiec
And that's so amazing because, you know, we're always looking especially for me, you know, and, and we've done the library events and you got to be really careful. You got to be so careful because you take your kids out and you say, oh, just. It's not like it used to be when I was a kid and my mom would just take me to the library and say, hey, have at it and go for it. Because now you're perusing the shelves and it's, you know, it's anti racist baby and LGBT this and everything, and they put them in the kids section on purpose. That's why it's so important to get there ahead of the enemy to say, I hate. Don't get taught about hating your country. Actually get taught, taught the real history of how great America is, how much our forefathers fought to create. And to your point, the system that we've been talking about, they're trying to tear it down.
Kirk Cameron
Yeah. And you're doing such a great job day after day, Jack. Thank you and your family for the commitment and the sacrifice. And I know you do it with joy because it's, it's, it's worth fighting for. You know, kids today have been taught to celebrate Great Pride Month. Right. This is people being, being proud of, of the rainbow religion and taught to be ashamed of being an American, the country that actually allows you to do things like have Pride Month, try that in other countries. Not, not so much freedom to do that, when in reality, the things that we ought to be ashamed of and the things that we ought to be proud of are, are being reversed for our kids. And so if we want to straighten them out, out, we've got to do that not only through the books that they read, but the music they listen to, the TV shows and the movies that they watch and the education that we give them. So everybody has a part to play. And my role right now is to put these three books into parents and grandparents hands. It's called the America Wins Bundle. You can get it at Brave Books or just go to Kirk250.com and you can see all three get a signed copy with little tokens, memorabilia of the accomplishments of Americans. All these cool little things like a Saturn 5 rocket and a Wright Brothers airplane, along with an American flag and these books. And this is a way you can push back and capture a sense of pride in the hearts of these little young Americans in your life.
Jack Posobiec
And it's so amazing. It really is. And that's, that's one of the, I'm glad you mentioned the space program, actually. President Trump is, you know, he's meeting the Artemis crew right now. Now. And it's one thing I love that we're now as a country, we're reaching for the stars again. We're reaching up. We're trying to progress for not, you know, like, not progressive, but actual human progress, that this is a country and we are as a people, a group that's just done amazing, incredible feats. We put a man on the moon. We are the ones who created the first airplane. These are incredible things. Things regardless of where you're from, regardless of, you know what, you know, your history is, this is just better for the world that we have done these things. And yet you go into these schools and they teach you to hate the country. They teach you that everything America did was wrong. George Washington and all the founders are all a bunch of racists and, you know, you should just get rid of them and slavery, et cetera, et cetera, it's all they focus on. They don't want to focus on the good. They don't want to focus on the achievements. They don't want to focus on the things that yes, we have overcome, but we've overcome them together because we can do this with the unique blessing that we have as this country. And I think if you believe that you can show people another, another path forward. I used to, I used to, when I would talk about, you know, after, after we lost Charlie, I would point out that there's, there's sort of like the Charlie Kirk version of America and Then there's the, the Zora Mandami version of America. And it's interesting because similar in age. And that one was all about loving your country and building it up. And the other one is all about just hating the country and wanting to tear it down and giving yourself money from other people's pockets, which is exactly what Mondami is doing right now, by the way. He's demanding that Albany give him more money because he can't fund his own things. But it's always done from a place of anger. And I confronted him in the Oval Office about, he had his little smirk on his face, but he, he, you know, I called him, I just called him out.
Kirk Cameron
I'm so glad that you did. People need to be called out and we all need a wake up call as citizens and realize that the people who are ultimately responsible to sustain the country, to protect the country, is not the super high up politicians in the White House or in the Pentagon. Thank God for good and godly people who are doing the right thing and appreciate what America's built on. But the real responsibility comes to people like you and me, moms and dads, grandparents who are raising your children to love what is good, to hate what is evil and fight for what is right. And we should be doing it with joy because we're a very blessed and privileged group of people. So let's again, like Ronald Reagan said, believe. Believe that we have a rendezvous with destiny, that our best days are still ahead of us, that we can be a shining light on a hill again. And to do that, we've got to get back to faith and courage.
Jack Posobiec

Title: JAMES COMEY INDICTED Amidst Leftist Assassination Culture SURGE
This episode tackles two main stories:
Indictment Announced:
Jack Posobiec reveals that James Comey has been indicted on two counts, following a grand jury hearing. Comey turned himself in North Carolina.
[03:21]
Underlying Allegations:
Media & Justice System Questions:
Attorney General Blanche:
“...the proof that we have is in the fact that the grand jury returned an indictment. Remember, that is not the Department of Justice charging James Comey with a crime. That is a grand jury returning a two count indictment.” [01:51]
“They do an investigation. This conduct took place in May of last year, May 15... the FBI, the Secret Service, and the U.S. attorney's office have not been sitting around doing nothing.” [02:41]
Jack Posobiec:
“What was James Comey's Instagram post immediately before his post about the numbers? ...He's reading a book called FDR Drive. ...the plot? Political assassinations is the plot.” [04:09]
“He made money, ladies and gentlemen, by selling a book, by selling a novel about political assassinations. That's why he made this inciting comment, to rile up the members of the far left by making this comment, this inciting comment about President Trump.” [05:22]
Probable Cause & Evidence:
The probable cause affidavit details evidence the prosecution plans to present; if proven, the case against Robinson is “quite strong.”
[11:54]
Pre-Trial Procedure:
Robinson hasn’t even entered a plea yet—common when a grand jury hasn’t indicted and a preliminary hearing hasn’t occurred. This is not unique to Utah.
[16:12 - 16:28]
Death Penalty Cases:
Death penalty cases often pivot to “saving the individual’s life” if factual innocence isn't plausible, focusing on presenting mitigating circumstances to avoid death sentences.
[13:00]
Evidence Discovery:
Transparency & Cameras in Court:
Defense seeks to block courtroom cameras, citing potential prejudice due to media/podcaster commentary—Burkhart argues transparency builds trust and is protected by the First Amendment.
Andrea Burkhart:
“If they are able to deliver on what they represent they have in these charging documents, this is quite a strong case against Tyler Robinson.” [12:23]
“Transparency breeds trust in the process and it allows us to accept the, the integrity or to at least see for ourselves if there are issues that we're concerned about.” [32:41]
“We hold trials in the courtroom, not in the public, public square. ...If it’s all out in the public, you can’t unring a bell. ...This is just a fundamental aspect of due process in criminal cases.” [23:34]
“There are other countries, like the U.K.... they do actually have limits on the public Commentary on cases... They have a completely different tradition than the United States under their law. It’s actually something that makes us quite unique.” [35:17]
Jack Posobiec:
“And it's going to be very tough to try to convince a jury otherwise when you have someone's own mother and father saying what they're going to say.” [26:35]
Upholding and teaching American values to children in the context of the nation’s 250th anniversary.
Kirk Cameron:
“Young kids today are being raised to be embarrassed or to be ashamed and not proud of and not appreciate America, which is insane to me. And so this is an opportunity that we have to fight back against the extreme leftist narrative that's teaching kids to hate America and teach them to love America and to know why they love America again.” [39:24]
“America was not built by perfect people, just courageous ones.” [40:41]
Jack Posobiec:
“They teach you that everything America did was wrong. ...They don't want to focus on the achievements. ...But we've overcome them together because we can do this with the unique blessing that we have as this country.” [44:01]
This episode delivers a high-stakes analysis of the Comey indictment through the lens of political context, legal process, and media coverage, contrasting it with the broader American tradition of open justice and civic pride. The conversation with attorney Andrea Burkhart demystifies criminal procedure and clarifies why transparency matters in high-profile cases like Tyler Robinson's. The episode concludes by pivoting to the culture war over America’s legacy, with Kirk Cameron advocating for a positive, truthful retelling of American history for children. Throughout, listeners are encouraged to uphold transparency, fairness, and national pride as citizens and parents.
