Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's very special edition of Human Events Daily. And we're calling it the Year of the Unhumans. And today is the one year anniversary of the release of the book UN Humans the Secret History of Communist Revolutions and How to Crush Them. Written by myself and co authored by Joshua Lysek. It went on and we're very honored by the response of all of you in the audience, the amount of people who supported this. It did become a number one Publishers Weekly bestseller, a USA Today bestseller and also New York Times bestseller list. Yes. In fact it sold so many copies that even the New York Times was not able to brush it under the rug. And I want to say that what was, I think the impact of the book wasn't anything special that I did or that Joshua did. It was the impact of the stories. It was the impact of the stories bringing it forward to say we're not going to talk about communism as this, this loose collection of falsity yet. We're not going to argue or debate with the communists. We're going to tell you the stories of what the communists do. We're going to tell you about what they always do. We're going to tell you what they do. And then we argued that you would see those things play out over time in reality. Well, there's just certain things that we couldn't possibly have known when we wrote the book. So we wrote the book in spring of 2024. We released the book in early July. The guy who wrote the foreword to the book, Stephen K. Bannon, was sent to jail, federal prison as a political prisoner. Just days after the release of the book. He even released a special political prisoner edition where he signed several hundred copies of it. And then just a few days after the release of the book, in fact, the same week that the book was released, when we warned and everybody trashed us saying, there will be upheavals, there will be violence, and particularly political assassinations, well, New York Times went after us. The entire left wing went after us. The entire media went after us. But what happened the same week the book was released? On July 13, Butler, Pennsylvania, an Act Blue donor attempted to kill President Trump up on that stage in Butler, Pennsylvania. We wrote a book about that, too. And everything that's happened since has almost been like it's ripped from the pages of this book, arguing that we are in an irregular communist revolution right now. And unfortunately, ladies and gentlemen, it's not over. In fact, it's intensifying. We're going to get into all that and more with Joshua Lysak when we return.

This is Human Events with Jack Posit. Now it's time for everyone to understand what America first truly means. Welcome to the second American Revolution. All right, Jack Paso, here we are back live Human events daily, Washington, D.C. the year of the UN humans. Well, folks, you ever notice how gold doesn't get much airtime until the system starts to shake? Here's the big news starting well started on July 1st. The Basel III Global Banking rules classify gold as a Tier one asset, the same status as cash or US Treasuries. That's a big deal. It means central banks can now hold gold at full value and treat it as a core capital. They're not doing that for fun. They're preparing for something. If gold is good enough for banks and governments as a backstop, it should be good enough for your savings or retirement. This may be the moment we've all been waiting for. Gold could reach levels we've never seen before. Whether you've got $5,000 or $5,000,000 to protect, now is the time to act. I've seen a lot of companies come and go. But there's a reason I partnered with Allegiance Gold. I'm not just reading an ad here, by the way. I'm a client, Believe it or not, Poso Family is all in. And there's no pressure out there, folks. They give great pricing and top ratings in the industry. They make it simple to move part of your 401k IRA or savings into real physical gold and silver. You may even qualify for up to $5,000 in free silver. Call 844-577-POSO or visit protectwithposo.com that's 844-577-776 or protectwithposo.com it's smart, secure and simple. Call 844-577-7676. So as we're here in this one year anniversary of the book unhumans, I would be remiss if I did not bring up my partner in crime, the great Joshua Lysek, co author of the book itself, to join me. Joshua, how are you?
- [07:37]
Joshua Lysak
I'm doing pretty dandy, Jack. Thanks for having me on.
- [07:40]
Jack Posobic
So, Josh, I have to ask, when we put this thing together and you and I had this just sort of, you know, you know, idea to write a book about communism, which, which I remember actually and haven't told the story too publicly and I'm not going to, you know, name names, but there were some people initially we reached out to where said, hey, we're going to write a book about communism. And they weren't even interested in. They said, why would you, you know, why do you want to write a book about communism? That's been done before. People have talked about it before. Why put out another book about something that we've all heard before? And you. And I said, well, you know, we have an angle on it that I don't think anyone's tried and you know, to just write a book about communism for the average person to read. So that's not meant to be, you know, a philosopher or a professor or a graduate student level, just the average. I remember you used to say that, you know, we wrote this for, you know, the soccer moms and little league dads and all the rest that you could just read it, get a direct understanding and also have that action plan to figure out what to do, you know, what, what to do about it and actually have some kind of solution. Did you ever think that when we did that that it would, you know, we'd be here a year later, not only are people still talking about it, but I got to tell you I can, I see the numbers. People are still buying this thing at a very heavy clip, even one year going.
- [09:04]
Joshua Lysak
I did have a hunch, Jack, that it would become frankly a cult classic. And not just from the, let's say, unmissable front cover and title page. The title, the book cover itself and the symbolism. And it's definitely got a little bit of shock value there, certainly. And people go, unhumans what? And then when they read the subtitle they go, oh, I immediately get it. The challenge that we had is when we looked at the competition we put, when we put together the book proposal and we're looking at competition, all of the competition, the competing books from conservative authors, from professors, they all place communism books in historical non fiction, which is a distinct category. Stuff that happened in the past for people interested in that thing to read about. But now when you go to bookstores nationwide and of course on humans, it's in bookstores all around the country. What section is it in? It's in current Affairs.
- [10:03]
Jack Posobic
Current Affairs.
- [10:03]
Joshua Lysak
Because what we recognized is the template for a far left wing, sometimes called communism, sometimes called progressivism, sometimes called socialism. We realize that all of these isms.
- [10:17]
Jack Posobic
Are in fact in New York they're calling it democratic socialism. We'll have to get into that.
- [10:24]
Joshua Lysak
Yes, the isms are all the same and it's the sense of resentment and envy. So communism and these far left wing ideologies, they're, they're not philosophies, they're tactics. It's you have what I want. That's not fair. Gimme. That is left wing ideology in practice. And the reason the word unhuman works is because it's a verb, it's not simply a noun. And it means to deprive someone of their human rights to life, liberty and property, which every single socialist, democratic socialist, communist and other radical left wing movement deprives people of. In reverse order. First they start to take your land, they start to take your stuff via taxes, and it becomes heavier and then eventually it becomes seizure, and then once they got your property, they start to take your civil rights and restrict you. We see this happen consistently with far left wing parties and individuals targeting conservatives, Christians, Republicans in this country. So in the book on humans, we tell the, we tell the story of the last 250 years worth of infiltration and then overthrow of governments around the world by far left wing movements. And we look at what was successful to stop them and what wasn't and what really aggravated left wing journalists, activists such as the splc, the communist Party USA wrote a delicious hit piece about the book.
- [12:00]
Jack Posobic
That's my favorite view of it by.
- [12:02]
Joshua Lysak
The way, is some of the characters. My favorite successful at defeating communists.
- [12:06]
Jack Posobic
My favorite review is that we got a, we got a full response and an almost a chapter by chapter review by the actual Communist party who hated it. And Joshua, there was a guy who had a phrase about reviews and something about. I'm trying to remember what that was.
- [12:27]
Joshua Lysak
Oh, wait, that was me, wasn't it? The expression is as follows.
- [12:31]
Jack Posobic
It was you.
- [12:31]
Joshua Lysak
Bad reviews from bad people are good reviews. So communists, that's five stars, right?
- [12:40]
Jack Posobic
So when we got the actual communists to come out and scream about the book, say, don't read this book. We hate this book. This is the worst book ever. They're like, wow, that's that. We, we have accomplished our goal here. And well, and it just has to be said that and full credit where it's due, that a thank you to then Senator J.D. vance for endorsing the book, blurbing it was mercilessly attacked. But then also, which we didn't know, right. In the course of writing the book, we didn't know that later that week, after the same week, remember that the book came out, Trump gets shot, and then the guy who endorsed our book as the top blurb becomes the vice presidential nominee of the entire country. So for the Republican Party gets nominated and suddenly this just propels the book into this massive mainstream freak out. You've got msnbc, Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid and all the rest of it losing their minds at this thing. And so I think those two things in combination with the book itself just really put under the whole thing. And also the fact that you and I never once back down because we got the playbook. And we go through country by country as case studies over the past 250 years and walk you through how it's the same playbook every time. Here it goes. You demonize success, weaponize envy, and then pretend that the pile of skulls was done for the people. That's basically it in a nutshell.
- [14:18]
Joshua Lysak
Followed by, well, this real stuff hasn't ever been tried.
- [14:22]
Jack Posobic
Oh yeah, and that. Right, right. And then when, and then when, and then when you're questioned on it, you say, well, that that wasn't the real one. And of course we flip it all on its head. We flip it on its head because we said, and we've got a minute here till the break, but we said, I think for the first time ever in a major publication like this, they're not doing this for the equality. They don't, the communists don't believe in communism. They know it doesn't work. They don't care. It doesn't work. The fact it doesn't work is the point, because the point of a system is what it does. And people will say, well, why do you feel, you know, someone who's, who's operating in good faith might say, well, why do you still support communism even though it's killed 100 million people? Where we come in and say, well, no, the point of the communism was the killing of 100 million people. And deep down, the envy and resentment at the heart of it wants them to kill more. And it's, it's a hard thought to actually comprehend, but I think we're making a lot of progress. Small P, by the way, we'll be right back.
- [15:30]
Unknown Speaker
Today, 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.
- [15:45]
Jack Posobic
All right, Jack Posobic. Here we are back live Human Events daily. The one year anniversary of the release of Unhumans. We're on with Joshua Lyzick. And Joshua, I really have to start to say probably the biggest thing that we've seen since the book has come out has been this wave of assassinations and assassination attempts that have gone on throughout the country since the book's inception. Now one of the first ones that we saw was a school shooting, so not directly tied to an assassination per se, but this of course was Audrey Hale. Then we saw, of course, the book was released the same week that Thomas Matthew Crooks, another zoomer, attempted to kill President Trump. Of course, Graham Wesley Ralph, another would be assassin, attempted to kill President Trump. We saw the wave of the Tesla bombings, the attacks there. And even as we, as we are just talking about this, we're still trying to figure out what exactly happened up in Idaho with this completely insane individual who was set afire as a trap to lure in firefighters and murder them as they arrived. And, and of course, the quintessential one that we all know about, which happened in December after the book came out, was Luigi Maggione. Joshua, were you shocked or surprised at all to see leftists reverting to this type of, this type of behavior, specifically that of Luigi Maggione.
- [17:28]
Joshua Lysak
This is what they do every single time. Like we say in the book, the first attempt at seeking power that the far left has always done is using manipulation, coercion, sleight of hand, trickery. One such preferred tactic is called that Lenin figured out was Vladimir Lenin during the Bolshevik Revolution was called the dual power strategy, where you start a separate, independent, seemingly grassroots organization while you try to infiltrate the mainstream or democratic institution. And then once you have enough power in both of them and the grassroots, so called grassroots one is powerful enough, you combine them together and then you make your ideology the law of the land and vote yourself the stuff of citizens that you don't like. That's the sort of the coercive, manipulative, sneaky way. And then there's just straight up ditches and pistols. There are the random street killings, the assassination attempts of the opposition. And so we have seen all of the above in the form of domestic terrorism from far leftists, from Thomas Matthew Crooks, the Act Lou donor to the Biden and Kamala Harris supporter Ryan Wesley Roth, who made it very clear why he wanted to attempt to assassinate President Donald J. Trump. And he wrote up his manifesto, which sort of in my opinion read a bit like what you'll see. Commentators on MSNBC say it's very similar sort of rhetoric that's, that's violent and seems to be desiring to take it to violence because we just have to do it. We're right. So we got to do. What we got to do is there is their perspective. What the left demands is complete submission of everyone that they are opposed to. And they do it by hook or by crook, the saying goes. Or maybe crooks, but you can.
- [19:26]
Jack Posobic
And when it comes to, when it comes to Maggione, does it surprise you that he sparked this massive public following, this fandom of his across, really across the country. I'm in the D.C. area and I see Luigi bumper stickers, I see free Luigi. You had mainstream comedians like Bill Burr call for Luigi to be freed even though his, you know, I mean he's on trial, but he's, he's on video and has not really, you know, put up much of a defense saying that it wasn't him on the video who conducted this street assassination of a health care CEO.
- [20:09]
Joshua Lysak
Yes. Here's what is so interesting about it is within the left wing and this is also this talked about in the book on humans. During the French Revolution, during the Russian Revolution, during every overthrow of established order, by far leftists, there is say a sort of a quiet civil war between the radicals and the normies. On the far left, in the case of the Russian Revolution, this was the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks, it was the socialists versus the communists. And so you have, let's say A contrast between Luigi Mangione, a Bolshevik, and Bernie Sanders, a Menshevik, where the idea is, you know, it's not fair that health care companies have so much profit and there's so much suffering. That's not fair. So we need to make them pay their fair share and give free health care, blah, blah, blah, democratic socialism. And then the other faction of the far left says, nope, we are going to engage in unhuman activity. We are going to steal, kill and destroy, because that's what we want to do. This is what we do every single time, you see? And so we continue to see that in every campaign where it's the radicals versus the normies, even on the far left. This is what we continue to see.
- [21:27]
Jack Posobic
And of course, they justify it by saying, oh, it's about equality, but deep down, they want more. Be right back. Jack Posovic, Joshua Lysak, UN Humans, one year.
- [21:42]
Unknown Speaker
And Jack. Where's Jack? 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 policies.
- [22:05]
Jack Posobic
All right, Jack, here we are, back live unhumans. The one year anniversary of the New York Times bestseller that they're still mad about, still mad at us. I still get. I can type in a Twitter box every day the words unhumans. And it's just people blasting me from the left, but also people cheering us from the right. And obviously just common sense, regular people who say, you know what? I didn't understand why communism is popular until I read this book. One of the reasons is they don't call it communism until much later. By the way, we actually printed a secret speech that was given in Cambodia by Pol Pot himself, basically admitting that this is exactly what they do. That they went in and they was like, well, yeah, we couldn't call it communism at first, but we infiltrated the academia, we infiltrated the schools, we infiltrated the media, we infiltrated politics. And then finally once after we took over everything, then we could tell you actually we were the communists all along. So it's very clear. And in fact, it's in their own words. One of the first times you'll find in English this secret speech printed in a publication from Pol Pot to the people of the party, which was now known as the Khmer Rouge or the Communist Party of Cambodia. But, Joshua, you were talking about the fandom of Luigi Maggione. And, and these things arise when you come into a situation where, you know, you do have these massive dispersals of, and we're just going to call it, right. We point out many times in the book when people say, well, it's inequality, it's inequality, it's inequality. And there are inequalities, by the way. And this is true. And it's something that conservatives get wrong all the time and they say, oh well, there's inequality, so you should just not worry about it or you should pull yourself up by your bootstraps. But what happens when those disparities become so huge, when people can't afford rent in New York City and yet they see Jeff Bezos is able to rent out all of Venice for his, his massive star studded wedding and people start to get upset and eventually emotionally, along comes a Luigi Maggione or I don't know, say a enterprising young immigrant from Uganda, although of Indian extraction, and says, perhaps we can just vote to take those people's stuff away and redistribute it to you yourselves. And that's Oram Mandani. And guess what? That's the exact same city that is now cheering many, many people in that city cheering Luigi Maggione, who was shot just a few miles away, excuse me, conducted his killing just a few miles away. He killed his victim. So, you know, you see these same forces and same pressures brought to bear. And Steve Bannon, of course, famously said at one of the, one of the speeches he was giving one of these talks to media and he was explaining populism and he said, look, there's there. And he was basically preaching the gospel of unhuman, saying, look, you either get us with Maga or you get Luigi Maggione. Pick your poison. And now you've got a guy who very well may be the next mayor of New York City who's saying what redistribute the wealth? Who's saying put higher taxes on white neighborhoods? Who's saying that we need to seize the means of production? Who wants government run food centers? Oh, government control of the food. Where have I heard that before? You know, and people, this is what they do. This is what they do. Control the land, control the food. This isn't even, it's, it's definitely cultural Marxism, but a lot of classic Marxism also mixed in. Joshua, unpack all this for us.
- [26:12]
Joshua Lysak
Yes, A phrase that I like to, I liking to call him commie mom. Donnie that he has been using is class consciousness, which of course is an expression that was popularized by Karl Marx in the very first con or the very first communists. And if we're going to look at that phrase, well, what does it mean to be clash conscious? It means that there is the rich and there is the poor and there's not a whole lot of separation between them. During the Industrial revolution, Europe and other Western countries saw this quite a bit, where there were those who owned the factories, who owned the manufacturing supply chains, who were sitting high and large as sort of a self appointed aristocracy and they had great power and privilege. And then there were the working poor who couldn't afford good homes, who couldn't afford good education for their kids, who couldn't afford, frankly, nutrition. And they were working the modern equivalent of basically two, three or more jobs. And you had this severe true inequality during the Industrial revolution. And class consciousness is this idea that that is the most important aspect of society is that there are the haves and the have nots and, and the haves only have by exploiting perpetually the have nots. And so because this is unfair, we need to make it equal. Now. What happens often in this equalizing situation is we need to get revenge. We need to make the powerful and the privileged feel what we have. We need to make them suffer. Which is why those participants of the Haitian revolution, the communist revolution, when they were later interviewed following the success of the revolution, they would say things like in English, for example, I didn't just want to be free, I wanted to own white slaves is what they said. And there is that deep resentment there from the, from the time of the Haitian revolution. And so it often happens is there are people who don't have a lot of access to opportunities, frankly. And I might start to sound like a populist and, and that's okay. That's what MAGA is. And you either get MAGA or you get Mangione and commie mom. Donnie. There's not really any dividing. There's not really a third option at this point. Now we have Mangione being a Bolshevik, where it's violence to get that revenge. And then you have sort of the Menshevik, the Democratic Socialist of, well, let's set up the government distribution food centers, let's tax the white neighborhoods more. Let's make sure that there's fewer and fewer white people. Let's let you know, let's do these sorts of things. And that the percentage of immigrants are in these neighborhoods is increasing. You see, it's, it's menshavism, you might say that sort of, well, it's not communism if you vote for it. Right. And of course, what happened during the Spanish Civil War? Well, immediately prior to the Spanish Civil War, the socialists won the election. And what did they do? They allowed it that they are communist allies to run roughshod over the Christians of rural Spain and the small business owners. And that's generally what happens right there during one of these.
- [29:32]
Jack Posobic
I've got to double down on that, on that, on that piece for everyone is, is people have to understand that because people, when people bring up the Spanish Civil War, they say, wait a minute, there was an election. There was an election. Yes. But then what they did was exactly as you say. They allowed all of the communist groups, what we would call the antifa of today or the BLM groups of the area, to become, to be essentially deputized as a form of law enforcement and a form of a people's court system directly taken directly from the French Revolution, verbatim, by the way, where the people's court now got to decide who would live, who would die, who would be in charge of the parish, who would be in charge of society. And they started killing. Oh who? The priests and the nuns. Exactly as what happened in the French Revolution 200 years prior. Because this is what they do. So Joshua, to your point is exactly right. They use this thin veneer of moderation to take power and then they empower the magiones and the extremists and the worst elements of their side. This is also why in France, or excuse me, in Russia, by the way, you have the two revolutions, you have the February Revolution followed by the October Revolution. For the February Revolution took out the czar, but then they had the Russian Republic for about five minutes. And the October Revolution was when the Bolsheviks came up and said, no, this isn't going fast enough. We're just going to kill all you guys.
- [31:02]
Joshua Lysak
And that is often how it goes. And sometimes it's a little more targeted, not obvious, so that there's not a military response, which is what we talk about in the book on humans, that the United States has gone through a low intensity conflict of an irregular communist revolutionary war, meaning it's been below the point of military reaction or response being, or even let's say significant nationwide policing being necessary with the infiltration of academia and entertainment and government, where it sort of slowly happens without people realizing. And this is the same sort of warfare that belligerence against the United States have been using after the Cold War because they do not want to draw the iron fire of the United States military. It's the same concept here with any regular revolution. If we can make it happen slow enough, the people won't notice what's happening. And then those of us who call out what's happening, they attack and say, no, that's not happening. And then when it does, they say, no, that's not happening. And it's good that it is.
- [32:09]
Jack Posobic
Well, this is also why we see the same tactic of the softening up what we call anarcho tyranny, where one of these other tactics that they do is rather than, rather than have police for the violent elements of society, they allow those violent elements of society to be released into the general populace so that they can terrorize essentially the middle class. I believe I saw a headline recently that there was going back to New York again. And New York City is a perfect example of this because it is America's greatest city. And the health of America's greatest city absolutely portends the trajectory and direction of our country. And so why are we talking about this so much when we talk about unhumans? Because you can see all of these things playing out within the, within just a few, you know, a couple mile radius of each other, these same forces on America's greatest city streets. And so when you look at the release of violent criminals, this again is a tactic to terrorize the middle class, to terrorize the populace, to terrorize you tourists and you regular folks who would be law abiding, you are the ones who are the targets because you always are. One minute until the break, Joshua.
- [33:31]
Joshua Lysak
Yes, and what we have often seen throughout these communist revolutions, we talk about this in the book as, as well is they often happen within cities, within cities. Because when you, when you take over a city, you can infiltrate that government, you can distribute it from there. That can become sort of your, your nerve center for the revolution. And a video that has just gone viral as of this recording is, depicts our New York commie mom, Donnie. He is giving interview and he's eating rice rather messingly, messily with his, with his hands, with his fingertips, which is something that is known. The lack of.
- [34:10]
Jack Posobic
Can't even watch it.
- [34:12]
Joshua Lysak
Yes, yes. And why is he doing that? Having come from actually coming from a position of power and privilege with his mother being an acclaimed film director and his father having been an Ivy League professor. He's not eating with his hands. So why is he doing it? He's doing it for the same reason that Joseph Stalin would wear the simple party dress, the same reason that Mao Zedong would dress as a I'm just like a peasant as a farm worker. Just like the same reason.

Krasobic, we are back here one year. Human Events Daily since the release of the book the Secret History of Communist Revolutions and How to Crush Them went on to become a New York Times bestseller. Number one. Publishers Weekly. One year ago this week. And little did we know it would be the same week that Steve Bannon was sent to federal prison, that President Trump would be nearly assassinated in Butler, Pennsylvania. And yes, just days after that, JD Vance was chosen as the vice presidential nominee. So huge amount of news following this one week. And of course we still need answers into Butler, Pennsylvania. There's no question about that. Joshua, why is. You know, we've talked about Luigi Maggione, we've talked about Zoran, Kwame Mamdani winning with this massive swath of Gen Z support in New York City on an incredibly communist cultural Marxist agenda. Gay race Communism. We're just going to call it what it is. Why is this book still relevant and still so important and required reading for all Americans today?

Like we said at the outset, Jack on Humans is not historical, non fiction. It's current affairs. It's current events. It's what's going on right now. Something that has been going on for more than 250 years and will continue unless it is stopped. And we have primaries coming up here. I'm looking at the calendar for the rest of this year. We're going towards the 2026 midterm elections, which are not just going to be the federal offices. There is a lot of stuff happening locally where radicals will take over school boards, they will take over any opportunity they can at state houses, state senators, representatives, sheriffs, prosecutors, DAs, any of these positions that they can get their hands on to infiltrate the institutions, they will do so. And yes, the 2024 presidential election went the way of the right and for the benefit of the United States of America. But the left did not go anywhere. And what lesson they took from the 2024 election loss was not we need to be more moderate. They said, no, we need to be more radical. We need to use not just veiled Marxist talking points. We need to quote Marxism, quote the Communist Manifesto, quote, and use these exact expressions like class consciousness. And so the lesson they took was the left, we simply need to become more radical. And there is a significant percentage of the population, maybe even some of your, your neighbors, certainly your fellow voters, who when they hear what the Mensheviks or the Bolsheviks are saying are doing, they say, oh, I support that. I'm going to vote for that. Remember the same sort of people who sent those love letters and fan mail to the street assassin Luigi Mangione? Those are the same populations who voted for Kami Mamdani in the New York City Democratic primary.

And what's key here? And we only have a couple of minutes left. I wish we had another hour, but I have to get you back on Joshua because this book tells you how to disrupt this type of behavior and it tells you how to stop it and it tells you how you can take steps. You right now, you don't have to be an influencer or political maven or have a podcast or media connection or any of those things. How you can in your local area, whether it be your, your library or your community center. By the way, the moms already get this and that's why they're totally focused on the school boards. By the way, I was at an event, I'll just say it was a. I was in the D.C. area. I was at like a kids thing, like a non political just kids activity that I brought my kids to and I saw someone there wearing a Moms for Liberty T shirt. And I walked right up to. It was a guy, actually. I walked right up to the guy and I said, hey man, that's a great shirt. I really support what those guys do. And he said, I couldn't agree more. It's little things like that that have a maximum impact when we all do them together because we focus on the nodes of power. And I guarantee you your local communist has already focused on the local nodes of power in your town or your community.

Joshua Lysak Absolutely incredible. By the way unhumans book.com I'll just double step. That is you can get autographed copies. We'll see if we can get the foreword by Stephen K. Bannon. We'll see if we can get Steve. Maybe see if we can do some more Political Prisoner editions. Those soldiers like hotcakes. But as we know, Steve's schedule is Steve's schedule. See what we can do in terms of that. But folks, go out there and remember, take down your local unhuman and support your local ice raids. Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission play ashore.
