What we have learned is that there were people that had relationships with Jeffrey Epstein and then decided to move away from that or disavow that relationship after he was jailed.
Jack Posobic
I think that's the kind of thing.
Alina Habba
That you're always going to see that happen. I do find it very interesting that the French human trafficker and then Epstein both died in jail while they were awaiting trial.
Jack Posobic
And this just again speaks to the curiosity that people have and the concern that this was much larger than just flights to an island. There are well over this. This will make you sick. 200 victims. 200 so we have well over. Over 250 actually. So we have to make sure that.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard. Today's edition Human Events Daily Live Washington D.C. today is February 27, 2025 Anno Domini. As you now know by now whole world saw already myself as well as a team of new media were present at the West Wing of the White House. Earlier today we went for a meeting with various department heads, various cabinet heads, as well as the Vice President and President Trump himself. We got a chance to meet them, to sit with them, to visit the Oval Office. An honor and an absolute privilege. And we'll certainly have more to talk about that as time goes forward. But one of the big pieces of this, and we didn't even realize that this was going to happen, I didn't realize this was going to happen. They didn't tell us beforehand. But AG Bondi, Pam Bondi. And congratulations to her. Thanks to her, a hero, a patriot, a stalwart defender of transparency and by the way, someone who puts the actual interests of victims first and foremost in everything that she does, as well as the well being of the American people and those who have been affected by heinous crimes like that of Jeffrey Epstein and his associates that conducted these mass factory style pedophile operations. So what happened today? We get these binders and originally we weren't going to talk about the binders. Right at showtime we were going to take time to figure out what was going on, dig deeper. Some of these are contacts, some of these are flight logs. There's all sorts of things in here. But then we walked out of the West Wing and because Keir Starmer and the Prime Minister were going to be meeting, well, the entire international media saw all of us. And so we couldn't hide the binders. So we did not hide the binders. We showed exactly what it was that was going on. But what's key for people to understand this is, is just phase one. This is just the first tranche of information that has been released by the White House that is coming out. There are more and more pieces of this coming. And so with this investigation, there's also an investigation into the files themselves into different offices throughout the FBI that may have been holding onto pieces of it. And as of course we've heard that members of the FBI have potentially been getting rid of files. And so this is a thorough investigation. It's being conducted by AG Bondi. She's incredible at what she's done. Kash Patel, as the director, you should be very proud of your administration. The most transparent administration in American history. Foreign now it's time for everyone to understand what America first truly means. Welcome to the second American Revolution. All right, Jack Pasopic, we're back here. Human Events Daily Live, Washington D.C. real America's Voice as well as the third hour of the Charlie Kirk program on the Salem Radio Network wanted to bring in. Now we have Senator Ron Johnson from the great state of Wisconsin who is joining us. Senator, glad to have you for making time today. Just incredible work that we've seen. We just got out of the White House. They're working hard on declassifying documents and getting stuff out to the American people. But we also understand there's a big budget fight going forward. So Senator, where is your focus right now?
Tanya Tay Posobic
Hello, Jack. Spending, spending, spending. And when I'm not focusing on spending, I'm focusing on spending. The fact of the matter is in 2019 we spent $4.4 trillion. Then we went on the pandemic spending spree averaging 6.5 over the next five years. Last year we spent 6.9. This year we're on a path to spend $7.3 trillion. That's 63% higher than 2019 when the population's grown by 2.6%. So I've been advocating for returning to some reasonable pre pandemic baseline. You know, I appreciate what the House is attempting to do here. I realize, you know, the slim margins, but I just have to say the what they pass as a budget is just completely inadequate. They would at most take, take us from 7.3 trillion down to 7.1. When I laid out scenarios using either Bill Clinton, 1998, Obama 2014 or Trump's 2019 increase, those total outlays, those actual outlays from those fiscal years by population growth and inflation, use this year's Social Security, Medicare and interest, we would end up with budgets somewhere between 5.5 and $6.5 trillion. So worst case scenario, using Trump's 2019, plusing that up, you'd be $800 billion less than what we're expected to spend right now. So that'd be an $8 trillion ten year savings. The house at most is talking 2 trillion. Again, I appreciate the difficult nature of their task over there, but it's just simply not adequate.
Jack Posobic
Well, and so if that's the case, then what is the path forward with the House on that?
Tanya Tay Posobic
So what I've suggested is a three step process. You know, let's get President Trump the border funding. He needs enough money to also defend this nation. The second step I would do is I would just extend the current tax code. As messy and complex as it is, that would take a massive automatic tax increase off the table for 2026. Again, that was a real problem with the Tax Cut Jobs Act. It expires automatically. Parts of it, most of it. And then I'd come back in the third stage and then you do the big beautiful bill, which is really complex. There are so many different components to it, it's going to be difficult to pass again. I know Speaker Johnson says they can pass this thing in May. I personally doubt it. So let's not let this opportunity pass us by in terms of border security, taking a automatic tax increase off the table and then sit down, simplify, rationalize our tax code and return to a reasonable pre pandemic level spending. Well, by the way, by that time we'll also have a lot of the doge efficiencies already revealed. We met with Elon earlier this morning. They're on track of literally identifying $4 billion per day of savings of waste, fraud and abuse. That's what he needs to come up with a trillion dollars of savings per year. Again, that's pretty much in line with What I'm talking about, somewhere between, that's that give us back to about 6.2, $6.3 trillion worth of spending. That's a reasonable pre pandemic baseline. That's what we need to set as our goal.
Jack Posobic
Well, Senator, I think it's exactly right. And so when it, when it comes to that, by the way, that also means, you know, you've got investigations that are going on. It's, it's got the, you've got things that we want the government focused on, but obviously lots of things that we don't want the government to be spending. That's kind of where Doge comes in then, right?
Tanya Tay Posobic
Absolutely. Again, I think Elon is doing a brilliant job. It was a brilliant move on the part of President Trump to, you know, enlist Elon and, you know, set up this Department of Government efficiency. I mean, you hear all the complaints from the radical left, you know, the people who feed off big government. I mean, this is one of the most brilliant people, most accomplished, most effective individuals who's ever walked planet Earth. Okay. And he's, you know, using his talents to come and identify just outrageous levels of waste, fraud and abuse. He gave us a number of examples. I don't want to quote him because I don't have the numbers right in front of me. But it's unbelievable what he's finding in the federal government. Unfortunately, it's all too believable that this is exactly what he's finding in the government. So we got to give him time. We've got to expose all these things. We've got to get past all the lies, that of the legacy media, of our Democrats, our Democrat colleagues. And here's the truth, here's how grotesque the waste and abuse of taxpayers money and borrowed funds is. We've got to end it again. That takes some time. Then we got to translate what he's exposing into legislation. All that is complex. It all takes time. That's why a three step approach is, by the way, it's gaining popularity here in the Senate. Again, I truly appreciate what the House is doing, I really do. You know, Jody Arrington, all those guys, you know, Speaker Johnson, House conservatives, you know, stepped up the plate. We're trying to unlock the key to be able to do these things. But again, to me, a multi step approach, take one step at a time, keep it as simple as possible and leave the big beautiful bill so we have the time to get it right. And so whatever we do for taxes is permanent. It doesn't automatically expire.
Jack Posobic
And so if it doesn't permanent, it doesn't automatically expire. That means it would essentially go forward and then any further legislation would have to be brought as a separate bill basically to if you wanted to raise or lower it.
Tanya Tay Posobic
Right. And you know, so we've already seen parts of the TCGA expire. A lot of the business tax provisions, R and D tax credit, accelerated depreciation. To make that permit is going to cost somewhere in the magnitude about $700 billion. So we're going to have to find real savings of that. By the way, you know, our approach in Senate budget resolution, we're spending $342 billion over four years, but we're paying for it in four years. So that's 85 and a half billion dollars per year of spending savings is what Chairman Graham is committed to. So if you multiply that times 10 years, that's $850 billion worth of savings, you know, more than half of what the House is saying with one and a half trillion. So again, the Senate is a good first step, a really good first step. Puts us on a path of reducing spending to a reasonable pre pandemic level. But we have got a long ways to go, a lot of work. It's going to be complex, going to be difficult. Let's not hold up border funding and the certainty that we're not going to have an automatic tax increase, let's take that off the table. Okay? That will also do great, tremendous benefit to our economy.
Jack Posobic
Senator, we got a lot of work to do. We got a lot of road to hoe. What is the best place for people to go and follow you and get your coordinates for your office and your work?
Tanya Tay Posobic
Probably at exit to send Ron Johnson, Love X. Get all kinds of information on that. That's where you find the truth nowadays. And I applaud Elon Musk for that as well. This guy is just a godsend to America. He truly is.
Jack Posobic
Absolutely. Thank you so much, Senator, for spending time with us. Understand your time is limited every day. You as well. All right, folks, that was Senator Ron Johnson, the great state of Wisconsin. I know everybody's asking. Look, guys, people asking, what's in the binder, Jack, what's in the binder? Look, we haven't had full time to be able to go through this exactly yet literally. I drove from the White House straight here to the studio. We've got this thing. And what we're here to tell you though is there are flight law. I've looked through it. You see, you, you do see the flight logs. You do see the Rolodex. So some of the names that we already knew from the Epstein black book are in there as well. And it's a general sense, a general understanding. I would say that this is phase one. This is what everybody needs to understand is they are finding and there's even information that there's potentially more. More files that the FBI didn't even know. Well, I should say the FBI wasn't making aware to the general public before it came out. That's what the office is working on right now. So there's actually gonna be more releases. It's gonna be completely public. This is phase one. This is phase one that we've received as well. And everybody's gonna be receiving this. It's not some special thing where we get a copy and nobody else. No, not going to be like that. Everyone is going to be able to get access to this. It's the most transparent administration that we've ever certainly I've ever seen. AG Pambondi Director Cash Patel we write back Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice on the Salem Radio Network.
Ron Johnson
You know, they talk about influencers. These are influencers and they're friends of mine. Jack. Where's Jack? Jack. He's got a great job.

We are back live in the White House and in Washington, D.C. we were just at the White House earlier today, so wanted to say thank you to Vice President Vance, to everyone on the team there who had us in for the sit down earlier today. Just an incredible meeting. As you know, President Trump also meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer. There's going to be more information that comes out about that as continues. Everyone wants to know about the files. I want to know about the files as much as everyone else. I'm just telling you guys, from a very basic standpoint, I haven't had the time to sit down and actually go through all these flight logs. I haven't had time to sit down and look at the entire contact sheet. And I'm sure, by the way, that the names in this contact sheet will be similar to other contact sheets from Epstein. Epstein's little black book, which you already know it's released. Some of the flight logs have been released already. And what I've got, what I'm going to need more time to do to analyze these things because I'm not going to sit here and start just pulling it out at random. Because we need to understand what is new, what has already been released. What are the differences? Is there a delta of that? Is it 10% new? Is it 20% new? Is it 90% new? But this is phase one. What AG Bondi with the Department of Justice, Cash Patel's office at the FBI. What they're doing is they're setting the stage for everyone. Now, whether or not this information, you know, there's. There's going to be nuggets, there's going to be new stuff, there's going to be old stuff. There's going to be all sorts of things in there. But we need to focus on the fact that this is full transparency, and this is how it works, okay? You've got cases in here. You've got investigations. Again, these cases involve victims, victims of some of the most heinous and disgusting crimes known to man and the individual who was behind it and the people that he was working with, many of whom are still not behind bars, many of whom are still at large. If you want that to actually occur, if you want that network to be rolled up, then that means you do everything right. You do everything the right way. And that's clearly what AG Bondi has been saying in interview after interview regarding this discussion. So phase one, this is tranche one, the first phase of information that's going to be coming out. Other information, look, it's about being comprehensive. It's about, you know, you're not going to open the floodgates and just see everything come out because there's certain information that they are going to need as they go forward in this investigation. There are certain things that they're going to have to look at as these things are ongoing. That being said, an honor and an absolute privilege. But I view it personally as a responsibility as well to sit here and say to you that this is the situation. Here's what we've got. Here's where we're going forward. Look, some of the names, and think of the names that we already know. Think of the names that we already know. Bill Clinton, okay? Someone on these flights to Lolita island, and the fact that he's still brought on TV by the mainstream media, that he's still able to speak at the dnc. All the rest of it, it's a joke and it always has been. And then President Trump gets indicted for some absolute nonsense. And you've got Bill Clinton, who's on all of the lists. He's on every single one of the Epstein lists. Whereas President Trump, what did he do back when it was his club? He said, how can I help the FBI take down Epstein? Be right back.
Ron Johnson
And Jack Whiz. Jack.
Jack Posobic
Jack.
Ron Johnson
Where's Jack? Where is he? Jack, I want to see you. Great job, Jack. Thank you. What a job you do. You know, we have an incredible thing. We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys, and these are the guys should be getting bullishers.
Jack Posobic
All right, Jack Patobe here back. Human events daily, Washington, D.C. folks, AI is in the news practically every day, and it's not always good news when it comes to your privacy. This past summer, Elon Musk openly stated that If Apple integrates OpenAI into its operating system, his companies will ban Apple devices. As a matter of fact, if you walked into the X office or a Tesla factory, you have to check your factory or tablet in a Faraday cage. Silence. Faraday products block all incoming and outgoing signals. And basically it makes it so that your devices are invisible and safe from the outside world. From their backpacks, phone sleeves, and even pants, patented signal blocking technology blocks wireless signals, giving you peace of mind that your data doesn't end up in the wrong hands. Just place your device inside, close it, and that's it. You're safeguarded from unauthorized access. Between the government, big tech, corporate America and criminals, your privacy is compromised 24. 7. There's no other option. You have to protect yourself. And that starts with silent.

So while I was there at the White House, I got to visit with an old friend and a very special guest here on Human Events Daily. Jack Sobec. Cuban Events Daily. We are here and honored to be on the grounds of the White House with Alina Hab, a counselor to the President. Lina, thank you so much for taking time with us today.
Alina Habba
It's my pleasure and honor.
Jack Posobic
Well, I've just come from inside the White House where AG Bondi, true to word and true to form, has released the first tranche of the Epstein files, gave us a personal copy here on Human Events to Daily. Does this show that this president isn't going to be a presidency about hiding information and actually being transparent about these trafficking networks and victims?
Alina Habba
Yeah, I think the way they did it was amazing. As you know, I was in the room, but we had a lot of influencers like yourself, people that have a different media outlet, people that have a different perspective and really do spew the truth. Getting the first phase of the files and the releasing of, of what we have so far that we can get out there. Obviously, this is a very sensitive issue. President Trump is really dedicated to making sure there's complete transparency, number one. Number two, making sure that these victims get what they need and deserve. And I think that we have seen an administration in the prior administration that just wasn't about that. They were more about political favors and things of that nature. President Trump is just not that.
Jack Posobic
No, he's not. And to be clear, the victims names are not, they are redacted in this. And of course that's an understandable. But is it true though? There's been some talk about this. Maybe you can shed some light. Obviously not all the details, but there are ongoing investigations. Is that something we're hearing about?
Alina Habba
I think if Pam spoke to that and said so, then that's the case. Look, I know one thing about this administration. We have Pam Bondi, we have Cash Patel, we have many others that are committed, committed to bringing justice, bringing justice appropriately, the right way, with the rule of law, not targeting people, but more so holding people accountable. We are not going to have hearing after hearing and investigations after investigations with no accountability anymore. But we have to look at every single situation with detail. This is all new to us because just like America, we didn't know what was there. This is just the first phase, the first tranche, as you called it. And we'll, we'll be methodical and careful. These are highly sensitive issues. You know, I don't want to cast blame on anybody as an attorney, but as sitting here with the counselor for the president in this role, we will look at those that need to be investigated and it will not be turned a blind eye. There will not be. That's just not the way we operate.
Jack Posobic
Well, and this generally represents a complete overturning of the function of the Department of Justice, but really just the, the system of justice in America rather than going after people for, you know, being a Trump supporter or being a conservative, being a Catholic. We saw these, you know, National Security Agency chat rooms that came out the other day and it seemed to me like they were putting together enemy lists. And I know DNI Gabbard was very swift to act on that, but it seems to me that these types of things were going on all over the government and now that's finally actually being overturned to go after, you know, real criminals.
Ron Johnson
Yeah.
Alina Habba
And by the way, you know, there's so much information we have to look at what each person did, what each, you know, it's, if anybody knows lawfare and, and just running amok and then all of a sudden accusing people. I am very against that. Transparency is important, but the investigation phase is also important. Justice has to be done correctly. We are going to restore the rule of law in this country. We are going to do so in a way that makes America believe that we are a republic, that we have a constitution and we have a rule of law.
Jack Posobic
Well, that's exactly right. You know, we've talked here on the program about how it's felt like there's been these three tiers of isis. People say two tier, I say three tier, because three tier is there's like the normal law for like, you know, you know, you drive too fast on the highway, whatever, you get pulled over. Not that I would ever do that. Certainly not you, whatever. And you know, but then there's a tier if you're, you know, you're, you're an elite, you're a Democrat, your last name is Obama or Biden or Clinton. And then there's the third if you're Donald Trump or anyone associated with him. And that's going to take some time to actually, obviously, I know you've dealt with that one on one. This system is going to take a long time to actually overturn.
Alina Habba
But I think that when you look at why and how the American people voted, I think of a lot of that is because of the things that we were saying outside the courtroom. And because they saw how targeted he was. The Americans sympathized with even Donald Trump, a billionaire president, somebody who's incredibly successful. And they saw through it. And I speak to that and say this again and again, everything has to be done methodically. Pam Bondi is the person to do it. Transparency will be given. And President Trump is the exact president we need to make sure there isn't targeting anymore in this country.
Jack Posobic
Well, it's exactly right. I mean, someone who's lived through it himself directly, I don't think anybody possibly could understand it as much as he has, having been and faced the brunt of it the way he did. And I know certainly you were there with him for all of it. But it's, you know, it's certainly got to be something different when it's your name on the line, 100%.
Alina Habba
And I mean, in hindsight, as I stand here with the White House behind me, it was the greatest honor of my life to serve the president before he was the 47th president and to stand with him when people were attacking. And that's where you really find your soldiers. You know, we have people in this White House that were with us for that journey. We have a lot of the people here, the comms people, people, etc, they were with us through that fight and they believe in our cause right now so much because we firsthand stood in the courtrooms. We saw that the cases were garbage. We saw that they were attacking him because of who he was, because they were afraid that he would run. And then when he decided to Run, start raiding him, start indicting him. We saw it. And if anything gives American people confidence, just know that we would not do that. We are not going to do that. We are going to restore.
Jack Posobic
We really are.
Alina Habba
Because that's a major part of why I came to the White House and, you know, left New Jersey to be here.
Jack Posobic
Incredible job. Lena Haba, what is the best way for people to follow you, to follow your office, follow your work? Obviously, we know the president and of course, just with today bringing up a bunch of us influencers in what is the best way to follow up with you?
Alina Habba
Lenahaba on Twitter, on Instagram. And then I also do have a new White House account with my name on it.
Jack Posobic
So.
Alina Habba
So it has a little gray check mark where I'll be putting more official things out there.
Jack Posobic
Only the official things on there. Got to be very careful. Thank you so much, Alina Hatman.
Alina Habba
Thank you. Thank you for having me, Jack.
Jack Posobic
All right, folks. And you may see already that I can confirm the letter that you're seeing from the sdny. It's actually true that there has been information that the Southern department of that, the scny, some bad actors, as well as the New York City field office are, are withholding documents that have been asked for by AG Bondi and that she is asking for them immediately. So releasing what she had for the sake of transparency, she has done so regarding that which was in her possession. However, these bam at these bad actors are pushing forward on this. Pam Bondi, your attorney general as well as Cash Patel, the director of the FBI, are working on this tirelessly. I want to go now. We're cutting to President Trump. He is live with the UK prime minister.
Ron Johnson
Necessary, but I don't think there'll be any problem with keeping the deal with the security. You want to say so. No, I'm just going to say, I mean, the deal, if we get it.
Jack Posobic
Is going to be hugely important. I don't think it would have happened.
Ron Johnson
If the space hadn't been created for it by yourself. But if there's a deal in, we've.
Jack Posobic
Got to make sure it's a deal that lasts, that is not temporary, that lasts.
Ron Johnson
And that's why we need to make.
Jack Posobic
Sure that it's secure.
Ron Johnson
And we've lent in and said we'll play our part. And we've talked and we will talk about how we work with yourself, Mr.
Jack Posobic
President, to ensure that this deal is something which is not violated.
Ron Johnson
Because it's very important that if there.
Jack Posobic
Is a deal, we keep it.
Ron Johnson
And I Think I can say that will be the easy part. That's the part we look forward to because putting security there, that's the part we all look forward to. That's easy. The difficult part is getting the deal made, so. But I think we've come a long way. Did you have something? He's got such a nice face. Oh, he's smiling. But watch, he'll ask. A total killer.
Jack Posobic
I've known him a long time.
Ron Johnson
Yeah, the ones that get you now. He looks like a nice guy. On a personal level, Mr. President, what.
Jack Posobic
Do you get on most.
Ron Johnson
What's your common ground with Sir Keir Starmer? Thank. Because you're both from different political backgrounds. It's true. I think I can say this because we've known each other now really for a little while. This is not our first meeting. As you know. He loves his country and so do I. That's our common, our common theme. He loves his country and I love our country. And we also have two countries that have gotten along for the longest period of time. Number one ally on each side and we have good. France and Australia, we have a lot of good ones. But we've had a long time relationship. A long time. Hundreds of years. And we like each other, frankly. And we like each other's country and we love our country. And I think that's our common thread. Mr. President, the Europeans on tariffs you just said, said with China. Who are you with?
Jack Posobic
I'm with the Independent.
Ron Johnson
Oh, that's good. It's on terrorists you just said with China. Thank you. We charged them. We charged them as we charged China. But the tariffs are paid eventually by American importers and consumers. No, they're not. No, I think they're paid for by the country. But, you know, look, we can get into that. I had, I put a lot of tariffs on in my first term and we made tremendous amounts of progress because of those tariffs. China paid us hundreds of billions of dollars, billions we never had because they took advantage. And President Xi is a friend of mine, but he know, he knows better than anybody took advantage of our country. He took advantage of presidents that didn't know what they were doing. And they expect him. They actually expect them. The smart countries expect them from me because they know me and they know our country. But they got away with, they got away with murder for decades. And we just can't let that happen anymore. Behind you, please.
Tanya Tay Posobic
It sounds as though one of you completely trusts President Putin and one of.
Jack Posobic
You doesn't trust him an inch. Have I got that right?
Ron Johnson
And why do you trust him? Look, you know, it's trust and verify, let's call it that. And I think we both can be that way. You have to verify because you never know what's going to happen. I know. I know a lot of people that you would say maybe no chance that they would ever deceive you. And they're the worst people in the world. I know others that you would guarantee they would deceive you. And you know what? They're 100% honorable. So you never know what you're getting. No, I have confidence that if we make a deal, it's going to hold.
Jack Posobic
On. Fentanyl. Mr. President, less than 1% of all fentanyl that comes into the US is apprehended at the Canadian. So why use fentanyl as a reason?
Ron Johnson
Because they should be apprehending much more. They're only apprehending 1%. You're right about that. It's a little more than that. But they should be apprehending much more because a lot comes through Canada. And as Mexico gets stronger in terms of the border, it goes.
Jack Posobic
Jack Sobeck will be right back. Charlie Kirk, Hour three. Salem Radio Network.
Ron Johnson
Yeah, go ahead, please, in the back. Is there anything you can say tomorrow.
Jack Posobic
To President Zelensky to reassure him that.
Ron Johnson
Jack is a great guy, he's written a fantastic book. Everybody's talking about it. Go get it. And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event, and we're going to turn it around and make our country great again. Amen countries, because they're right there. We're very far away. We have an ocean between us, but we want to make sure it works. So I don't know, when you say backstop, you mean a backstop psychologically or militarily or what. But we are a backstop because we'll be over there. We'll be working in the country. We're going to be. That's a great thing economically for them because, you know, when you talk about economic development, we're going to have a lot of people over there. So we'll be working in the country. So I don't. I don't. I just don't think you're going to have a problem. I think when we have an agreement, you can say whatever you want about security, who's going to do it, or that's going to be a very pleasant conversation. The hard conversation is, will we have an agreement? And I think the answer is yes. I think Russia will agree And I think that I really believe Ukraine will agree also.
Jack Posobic
Just to follow up on that, if.
Ron Johnson
British troops are in Ukraine keeping the peace and get attacked by Russia, will.
Tanya Tay Posobic
You come to their aid?
Ron Johnson
If the British people are in Ukraine and they get attacked? You know, I've always found about the British, they don't need much help. They can take. Take care of themselves very well. All right.
Jack Posobic
This is Jack Posobic. We're back. Charlie Kirk, Hour three.
Ron Johnson
Salem Radio Network have been incredible soldiers, incredible military, and they can take care of themselves. But if they need help, I'll always be with the British. Okay? I'll always be with them, but they don't need help. You look at their career. You have done very well over the years, haven't you? We have. I'm very proud of our country. And we've. But we've also always been there backing each other up between our two countries. That is why this is the greatest alliance for prosperity and security I think the world has ever seen.
Jack Posobic
Whenever necessary, we've absolutely backed each other up.
Ron Johnson
And that's. Could you take on Russia by yourselves? Well, all right. One or two more. Yes, ma'am.
Alina Habba
In his remarks at the Munich Security Conference, Vice President President Vance condemned free.
Jack Posobic
Speech violations in the UK particularly.
Alina Habba
Could you respond? What is your message?
Ron Johnson
I have an idea. We have the man right here. Come on, let's go. J.D. we're putting you on stage.
Jack Posobic
Great. Yeah. Look, I said what I said, which is that we do have, of course, a special relationship with our friends in the UK and also with some of our European allies. But we also know that there have been infringements on free speech that actually affect not just the British, of course. What the British do in their own country is up to them, but also affect American technology companies and by extension, American citizens. So that is something that we'll talk about today at lunch.
Ron Johnson
We've had free speech for a very, very long time in the United Kingdom and it will last for a very, very long time. Well, no, I mean, certainly we wouldn't want to reach across US citizens and we don't. And that's absolutely right. But in relation to free speech in the uk, I'm very proud of our history there.
Jack Posobic
We discussed, though we discussed in Orcas with the Australians and the Brits will be discussing Aukus with the Prime Minister.
Ron Johnson
Sir, what does that mean?
Jack Posobic
Aukus, the Australia US Defence Alliance.
Ron Johnson
Well, we'll be discussing that. We've had another great relationship, and you have too, with Australia. We've had a very good relationship with Australia. Mr. President, while we have the vice president here, are you both disappointed that.
Jack Posobic
The AfD didn't come first in the.
Ron Johnson
German elections, given your previous support for them? No. Whatever happens with Germany. Look, the relationship has been very strong with Germany, but we'll have to see what happens. I have a lot of things going on right now. We'll have to see. No, I'm not disappointed about anything. If anything, you would say that the group that we would be most opposed to lost and. But we got along with them also. We have a very good relationship with all groups in Germany.
Alina Habba
CEO Erik Prince was on our channel, News Nation.
Jack Posobic
He was talking about his proposal to.
Alina Habba
Use private forces to assist in deportations. Have you read that proposal and do you support it?
Ron Johnson
No, I haven't seen it. I don't think it's necessary. Our people are doing a phenomenal job. I wouldn't be opposed to it necessarily, but. But I'd go to our military people and I'd go to Tom Holman and Christie. I'd go to the various and ask. But I don't. I don't see it as being. We're doing unbelievable, unbelievably, in getting people out, getting criminals out, people that should have never been here, that the Biden administration with a stupid open border, should have never allowed. They came in from prisons and jails and mental institutions and gang members and drug dealers, dealers coming into our country like this. We're getting them out and we're doing really well. I mean, they. The level of effectiveness has been incredible. Everybody's talking about it. How about one more?

Well, we. You mean the areas that were taken? There are a lot of areas that were taken. Yeah, we've talked about it. A lot of the sea lion has been taken and we'll be talking about that. And we're going to see if we can get it back or get a lot of it back for Ukraine, if that's possible. We'll be seeing about that. Okay, thank you very much, everybody. Thank you very much.
Jack Posobic
We're headed out.
Ron Johnson
Thank you.
