I went on a left leaning podcast and they asked me about my son and I said he was, you know, he's, he's a football player and he wants to be a policeman. And their joke was about my 15 year old son. Oh, how does he feel about minorities? Like the idea that he wants to be a policeman, therefore he's, he's racist. My son. And I thought to myself, this is why you are losing elections.
Harvard has to understand the last thing I want to do is hurt them. They're hurting themselves. They're fighting. You know, Columbia has been really, they were very, very bad, what they've done, very anti Semitic and lots of other things. But they're working with us on finding a solution and you know, they're taking off that hot seat. But Harvard wants to fight. They want to show how smart they are.

And President Trump threatening to cut federal funding to California if it continues to permit transgender athletes to compete in women's sports. Secretary of State Marco Rubio signed this.
Matt Mowers
Cable directing US Embassies to temporarily stop scheduling new student visa appointments as the Trump administration works to expand social media screenings for applicants.
Unknown Speaker
Well, remember just a couple weeks ago, AOC went on social media saying if we put a finger on any of her co workers or Congress, Congress people that were at our Newark facility, there'd be, there'd be consequences. Well, guess what? We did it. I'm waiting on the consequences.
Jack Posobic
President Trump is considering new sanctions on Russia as he warns Vladimir Putin over repeated attacks on Ukraine with no peace deal in sight. Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily. We are here live from Budapest, Hungary today. Today is May 28, 2025 Anno Domini. And by the way, happy birthday, Mom. Folks, today I wish we could just sit here and talk about my mom and all the wonderful love that she brought into the world and to my life. But unfortunately we have other things, more pressing things to get to. And the text messages of Elias Rodriguez have been leaked. Now Elias Rodriguez is the main suspect in the street killing of two Israeli embassy staffers from last week in Washington D.C. this individual can be seen supposedly on video shooting a young woman in, in the back. And as she attempts to crawl away, she doesn't die. And as she attempts to crawl away from him, he then reloads his handgun and begins firing at her again and again and again, killing her before she is able to get away as she was, was attempting to while still alive. Well, his text messages have been leaked and a left wing blogger has them. Some very interesting reading that people could dig into on this. One of the lines jumped out at me was this, you probably would have to actually genocide white people, he says, to make this America a normal country, like even a very targeted and selected rehabilitation program would probably have led to the lifetime imprisonment of tens of millions of, of white people. So for him, white genocide is something that is on the table. This hatred that he has and people were saying, well, is he anti Semitic? Did he hate Jewish people? Obviously he killed two Israeli staffers in cold blood. Well, as it turns out, his direct hatred was of white people. Maybe they just hate white people and want to kill them. We have it now in their own words, in the words of a DC street assassin, alleged street assassin, we need to genocide all the white people. And in doing his part, he decided to shoot these two Israeli staffers because apparently that's how he views the conflict. And most of the left use the conflict this way between Israel and Gaza as white people versus brown people. That's how it's coded. That's how he reacted. He hated them because he hates white people. This is what we wrote about in Unhumans last year and you're now seeing it play out unfortunately on the streets of Washington D.C. will be right back here. We're live from Budapest, Hungary, Human Rights Daily and what America first truly means. Welcome to the second American Revolution. All right, Jack Pasopic, we are very excited to be here live in Budapest, Hungary for this edition of Human Events Daily, cpac. Hungary is kicking off very soon and we were speaking earlier today at the EU US Forum here in Budapest. That was kicking off a little bit earlier to that. So we brought some guests on from that on the show today and I wanted to bring one of them on right now. From the United Kingdom, it's Jim Ferguson and a reporter out there, a journalist, someone who's very up on all of the issues affecting Europe and how it affects the West. Jim, thanks so much for coming on with us.
Jim Ferguson
It's my absolute pleasure, Jack, delighted to be on with you.
Jack Posobic
So when, when we're here discussing these situations, globalism, nationalism, why is it so important for conservatives, patriots, populists to meet and have this exchange of ideas when we're fighting up against Davos and Brussels and all the rest?
Jim Ferguson
Well, because they're very good at organizing against us. And the likes of the US EU Forum is incredibly important to bring conservative voices and patriotic voices together. We saw that very powerfully today. And they are actually tackling the big issues that really matter to our respective countries. The United Kingdom is all sorts of trouble right now with a far left prime minister called Keir Starmer. He's locking up Christians, he's censoring people, he's putting people in prison just for reporting the news. It really is quite a dystopian nightmare. And we value very much our American friends and allies coming across and showing an interest, not just in the UK but here in Hungary as well and previously in Romania as well, at the election of George Simeon as the candidate there. So we saw huge American support come in and we appreciate it.
Jack Posobic
Well, that's incredible. Now, one of the big pieces that I've been meaning to get into on the program here, and since we're. We are. And so folks know the geography, we're here in Budapest. We are only a few miles away from the border with Ukraine. And there's been this huge escalation over the last 24, 48 hours. Ukraine attacking Putin. Putin responding. Ukraine responding drone strikes. President Trump coming out saying, what happened to the ceasefire? What happened to the peace deal? I have my thoughts on it. Let me get your thoughts on it, too.
Jim Ferguson
Well, there's a huge number of people within the European elites that don't actually want a peace deal. They have their own reasons for it. President Trump has done a remarkable job since he got into office. He's, he's solved so many problems and issues, but the Ukraine one is still eluding everybody. And it's really primarily because Zelenskyy doesn't want to leave office. He believes if he leaves office, he's going to become vulnerable. There's a huge amount of money that's come in from the United States taxpayer, British, European taxpayers that is actually unaccounted for. He's admitted himself. There's about 100 billion. He doesn't know where it Went, well, there's that. But I think what Putin is upset about right now, and I'm not a Putin apologist at all, but I think if you look at it historically, there were grievances there historically, going back the formation of the Minsk agreement, which Merkel and Francois Hollande admitted was only a front to allow Zelensky and Ukraine to rearm. So when you do a negotiation at the international level like that and you break your word, you lose respect internationally. It's the same in business.
Jack Posobic
And this is what's caused the situation for President Trump to step into now to say, all right, let's make a deal. And of course, the Russians are saying, well, the last deal was broken. And it seems to me that this escalation has. It's the answer to the first round of negotiations. The answer is no, we don't want the ceasefire. We don't want a frozen conflict from both sides. By the way, Putin and Zelensky both want to keep this going. And it seems to me that. And by the way, what was it really that started this initial round of escalation?
Jim Ferguson
This initial round? I think it was because Zelenskyy is looking for more and more money. He's never stopped asking for more and more money, weapons systems, when in actual fact, if President Trump had been in office at the time, I honestly believe the war would never have happened. He does understand how to do a deal. He does understand how to negotiate. And more importantly, Vladimir Putin respects Trump because he sees him as a strong man, which he is. They both actually have a high degree of respect for each other. But you saw what happened with the White House scenario where Zelenskyy was there acting up with President Trump. Not a good idea.
Jack Posobic
Yes. And I was in the. In the room with Zelenskyy and Bessant about a week prior to that, and it was a similar situation.
Jim Ferguson
Yeah. So what we need to see now is I think, maybe pressure put on the Europeans, in actual fact, because they're the ones who are, I suppose, really covering for Zelensky now. And I think what I would like.
Jack Posobic
To see is, and when in the midst of all this, Putin goes down and he's taking a helicopter tour of the Kursk region, which is within Russia proper. It's not one of the disputed regions that's currently accompanied. So he's visiting Russia proper. And then the Ukrainians, they tried to take him out, but they put 40.
Jim Ferguson
Drones in to try and take his helicopter out. So, of course he's going to be upset about that. But I mean, I think that there is a real danger that this escalates. And the last thing anybody wants, America doesn't want it. I don't think Russia wants it either. It is a third world war, because if that happens, it could.
Jack Posobic
And this is the big threat. And, you know, there are people on the left who. They try to take me out of Congress. Oh, you care about Poland so much. And I just spoke in Poland. So, you know, if you care about Poland so much, why is it that you're. You're. You're not wanting to increase the war in Ukraine? I said it's because I care about Poland, and I want to make sure that, you know, everyone knows. You're listening right now on the Salem Radio Network. You're watching live on Real America's Voice. We are here live in Hungary, Budapest, Hungary, only miles away from the Ukrainian border and also miles away from the Polish border, Slovakia, you know, sort of sandwiched in between there in the mountains. But the point is, is that this region is so, so small, and it can be such a powder keg, and historically has been such a powder keg for World War I, for World War II, and hopefully not World War 3. So the goal is to take a step further and say, are you for this side or for that side? No, I'm against World War iii. And so if I'm against World War iii, that doesn't mean I have to agree or justify anything that Russia has done. I certainly don't. And at the same time, I don't have to be a Zelensky supporter either, is to say we all need to pull back. And I think that's generally where Trump's at.
Jim Ferguson
I would absolutely agree with that. I think it's a very accurate, very good assessment, and I think we're starting to see evidence of that playing out. We need cooler heads to prevail. Unfortunately, I don't believe Zelenskyy is a cool head at all. I think he has other invested interests in there that we'd like to see it continue. And he's desperate to bring Europe in, and he's desperate to engage with Article 5. If he could, could try to trigger that, then it would bring in the other NATO members, and, of course, Zelensky and Sarkozynski and Savrov. The foreign minister has made it very.
Jack Posobic
Clear, well, Sarkozy's running around, too.
Jim Ferguson
Sarkozy is actually. It's a Freudian slip there, Jack.
Jack Posobic
He has been running around, running around.
Jim Ferguson
Doing things in Romania which he shouldn't have been Doing either.
Jack Posobic
Romania taking money from the Chinese, too, by the way.
Jim Ferguson
There's a lot to uncover here, but I think, really, we have a real opportunity with Trump in the White House. He wants peace. He has the skills to do it. But we need to make sure that those people within Europe, those that are globalists, that are pursuing this particular agenda, are reined in. And I think Trump is the man to do it. If he speaks to them and puts the cards on the table and gets them to prevail, we might see peace. But the alternative isn't worth considering.
Jack Posobic
I was on Steve Bannon's program, War Room, earlier today, and he brought up this question, and I said, it's. It's the reason that Russia is not accepting the ceasefire. You have to understand the reasons for why Russia went to war in the first place. A ceasefire isn't enough for them. They want the big deal. They want a big deal. Normalizing relations between at least the United States and Russia, if not, as you say, the rest of Europe, because they know that Trump's only going to be there for another three and a half years. He's gone. Who's to say that the next person isn't going to immediately start up all of these problems yet again, talking about putting Ukraine back into NATO, putting NATO forces back into Ukraine, doing all of these things that the Russian military and the Russian intelligentsia have said that they view as a threat. And even the liberals in Russia, as their politics run, you know, liberal to conserve, still view that as a threat. The same way I've likened it to, you know, if we found out in America that the Chinese Communist Party were putting troops in Canada or Mexico, of course we would take that as a threat. Obviously, we would take that as a threat. We're coming up on our first or our second break here, rather I should say. So. We're. You're on with Human Events Daily. You've got Jack Posobic, you got Jim Ferguson from the uk. We're breaking down everything that's happening here in Europe. The fight against the globalists, the fight for God, the fight for country, the fight for sovereignty. Sovereigntists, nationalists, populists. Do you put your people first or do you put your transnational government first? We think we know which one it is. So you're live on Real America's Voice and the Salem Radio Network. Be right back.
Unknown Speaker
Today, you know, they talk about influencers. These are influences and they're friends of mine.
Jack Posobic
Jack.
Unknown Speaker
Where's Jack? Jack? He's got a great job.
Jack Posobic
All right, Jack Posobic. We are back. Real America's Voice and live on the Salem Radio Network, hour three, Charlie Kirk, we're here coming to you live from Budapest, Hungary, because, folks, we are fighting the globalists all over the planet. And as it turns out, there are allies in our fight to be found all around the world as well. I was in Poland yesterday. Now we're here in Hungary, but we're also talking to friends from the United Kingdom. And we've got Jim Ferguson here now. Jim, one of the things that was spoken of at the EU US Forum earlier today, and JD Vance has made a huge issue of this. Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, just released a huge missive saying that visas will no longer be allowed for foreign officials who violate the ideals of freedom of speech. Now, for Americans, he said this for Americans, but that you can actually have your visa canceled, denied access to the United States if you violate freedom of speech. Why is the Secretary of State targeting this so much for foreign officials?
Jim Ferguson
Because Marco Rubio understands fully, as does J.D. vance, Vice President, that there is a huge problem with free speech and censorship going on across the European nations and the UK itself. We are being censored. Journalists have been locked up. We are not allowed to say what we think. We're not even allowed to.
Jack Posobic
The last I saw is that stay at home moms and housewives are getting locked up for two and a half years over tweets that have been deleted.
Jim Ferguson
Whilst child rapists get out on much lighter sentences. Horrifying. It's absolutely horrifying. And I think our friends in America understand the importance of freedom of speech. You've got the Bill of Rights, The Constitution is enshrined in your laws. And even in the United Kingdom, we have the Magna Carta, of course, as well. And we are sometimes referred to as the mother of all parliaments because we took democracy out in many different ways. But the problem is we have globalists now. And you're right to mention that it is a fight against globalists. And the only way we're going to combat it, Jack, is to unite around the world, all of our nations together as patriots.
Jack Posobic
When I had a long layover at Heathrow a couple weeks ago, I was coming back from the conclave and while I was there in the international terminal, but I'm on British soil and I said, I wonder what things I can post without Keir Starmer coming to arrest me. So I was going and finding all of the choice Bible quotes from, from the Old Testament and some stuff from the New as well. I Said surely, surely I can't get in trouble for just Bible quotes. Right? And then I said, and then I thought, well, you know, if I'm going to post from the Bible, I might as well post from other holy books that are accepted here in the uk. So I started posting from the Quran and boy, did I get in trouble for that one.
Jim Ferguson
I bet you did. I'll bet you did.
Jack Posobic
I'm just posting from, from the religious text of large. There's no problem with that and just some basic guidelines for how to deal with marriage from the Quran. I don't see what the problem with that is. Keir Starmer. Right, Right.
Jim Ferguson
Well, he doesn't want too many people knowing what that message is about. But there are preachers, street preachers being arrested, taken away in handcuffs by police officers here in the United Kingdom. It's gone beyond dystopian. And that's really what prompted me.
Jack Posobic
And priests for praying silently. Yeah.
Jim Ferguson
In their minds. So it's becoming a thought crime now, Jack.
Jack Posobic
An actual literal thought crime.
Jim Ferguson
An actual literal thought crime.
Jack Posobic
So he's praying in his mind even though he's physically just standing there. And how do you even prove that?
Jim Ferguson
Well, they asked them, were you praying in your mind? Yes. Well, they admitted it. Okay, well, you've broken the law. How does that break the law? It's crazy.
Jack Posobic
It's completely upside down. The idea that and, and what J.D. vance, I think, said and just in our last few minutes. Actually, let me ask this. What JD Z said though, I think is so important because Europe was the cradle of these values. They came to the United States from Europe, the founders came from Europe, etc. And so to see Europe walk away from them is, is, it is mind boggling to us. So thank you for doing what you do, standing up your fight. We've got about a minute and a half left. Tell people about what your operation is and how they can get involved.
Jim Ferguson
So if they go to www.freedomtraininternational.org it is the fastest growing, largest freedom movement in the world, which I spent a long time creating where a period of 15 months reaching out to many American friends, Canadian friends. We're all about primary mission is uniting patriots internationally. We're bringing people together and we're teaching them how to get ready for whatever comes next, from food preservation to water filtration systems to how to get out of debt, how to form networks within your own community. Freedomtraininternational.com is. Sorry. Freedomtraininternational.org is where people can Go to join us. In fact, it's had so much success. We've got ambassadors now appointed in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Germany, and many other nations.
Jack Posobic
And President Trump has been posting your tweets as well.
Jim Ferguson
For On Truth Social media has reposted my tweets on Truth Social. And Elon Musk has reposted some of my tweets just quite, quite recently as well.
Jack Posobic
So it's amazing the way the world, the world actually is flat right now, but not in the way that Thomas Friedman thought that it would be. Jim, thanks so much for joining us.
Jim Ferguson
It's a pleasure to be here with you.
Jack Posobic
All right, go follow him, folks. That Jim Ferguson uk, you'll see him on X. You'll see Elon's posting him. Trump is posting. Everybody's posting this guy. We'll be right back here. Jack Posobic, Real America's Voice, the Salem Radio Network. Quick brother.
Unknown Speaker
And Jack. Where's Jack? Where's Jack? Where is he? Jack, I want to see you. Great job, Jack.
Jack Posobic
Thank you.
Unknown Speaker
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 who'd be getting bullishers.
Jack Posobic
All right, folks, Jack Pasopic, we're back here. Budapest, Hungary. Real America's Voice, the Salem Radio Network, hour three. Charlie Kirk, want to cut? Now we have an interview with Matt Mowers, founding board member of the EU US Forum. Really excited to be here in Budapest, Hungary. Many times visited this city and this country to see the incredible economy accomplishments of Prime Minister Viktor Orban and what he's done from a conservative perspective. And a new organization has been founded to really explain and shore up that relationship between the United States and the eu. That's the EU US Forum. And we're very excited to be here with Matt Mauers, who is a founding board member of the Forum. What's going on, Matt?
Matt Mowers
Hey, Jack. Thanks for being in Budapest with us.
Jack Posobic
Well, this is incredible. And so, you know, you were in Trump's State Department. Tell me a little bit about the Forum. What was the impetus for putting it up together and what is the plan?
Matt Mowers
Sure. So we started the Forum early part of last year. We did a big kickoff event in Rome. We had Vivek Ramaswamy come out for it. We did with the ID Party here in the eu. And a lot of the reason we started it. You know, the other board members are also Trump alumni from the first administration, whether it's Joe Grogan who is director of Domestic Policy Council under President Trump, Johnny Disturbing, who was counselor at the White House. Because what we needed to do was provide a forum, an outlet for the type of conversation on policies, both good and bad, that were coming out of both sides of the Atlantic. And I think one of the things we saw, because we had worked in the Trump administration, I had served in the State Department, was that a lot of the bad ideas that were coming out of the progressive left, the AOCs of the world in the US emanated out of the European Union. Radical environmental.
Jack Posobic
You see a lot of these types of forums on the left. There's. We probably couldn't name all of them, endless amounts.
Matt Mowers
I think we do a poor job as populist conservatives of actually engaging others. Populist conservatives in other countries. I mean, look, we all believe in sovereignty. We all believe in national identity. We believe that it's part of the fabric of what makes a strong country. But it doesn't mean we shouldn't be talking and engaging around the world. The Democrats do it because it's part of their. And the left do it because it's part of their identity, the global citizens into the world. For us, it's about how do we make sure that we are advocating for our own national interests and doing so around the world. And so if we're all going to push back on these encroachments on free speech, whether it's the types of things we're seeing out of the UK and Germany where they can crack down on speech that they deem as hate speech, even if it's just a difference of opinion, whether we're seeing the weaponization of the judicial system that we see in France going after Marine Le Pen or what we saw in the United States, whether it's the radical environmental policies that are hamstringing countries around their energy security issues, shutting down family farming because of the radical environmental policies, the unchecked migration that we're seeing, the same issues were emanating on both sides of the Atlantic. And we had to provide an outlet for populist conservatives to know who each other were, understand better policies, and also talk about how we can fight back.
Jack Posobic
I've said that there's sort of an irony to it that in order to combat the encroachment of transnational globalism, it requires an international alliance of anti globalists, which is, you know, sort of the paradox.
Matt Mowers
Yeah, no, no, you're exactly right. I mean, because it's funny, I remember our first event too. We had a lot of Members of the EU Parliament, they said it took an American to come here and say nationalism is okay. Right. Because they kind of, you know, we tend to get a little insular and sometimes dispirited. I mean, if when we kicked this off in March of last year, I mean, you had Joe Biden as president, or, you know, an auto pen or whoever the hell was actually president, we're.
Jack Posobic
Starting to learn that in fact, it.
Jim Ferguson
May not have been Joe Biden as president.
Matt Mowers
You had, you know, I don't know.
Jack Posobic
If there's login list on that auto pen.
Kevin Posobic
Exactly right, by the way.
Unknown Speaker
Yeah.
Matt Mowers
And so you had the, you know, left wing leadership across the continent in the European Union. And so people were kind of dispirited. I mean, we knew we had our work cut out for us. You know, you look at the reaction since then. Last June, you had record number of support for conservative parties, record number decrease in support for the most left wing parties. You had in France what should have been a great resounding victory for conservatives, but you had Macron's party ally with the far left to try to prevent Marine Le Pen's party from gaining any ground in their National Assembly. You had increase in support for conservatives in Germany, you had increased support for conservatives in Italy. And of course, we had the election of President Trump. And so we've now been able to see a lot of the ideas we were talking about now get put into action here. The key thing, of course, is making sure, especially in Europe, they actually honor the word of their citizens. I mean, what we're seeing is, you're seeing in Germany right now, they'll label the AFD an extremist group. They won't cooperate to put them into the government. You'll see.
Jack Posobic
Oh, and I think the report leaked and it was because they said things about we want to secure our borders and we don't want George Soros controlling our country. And these were the extremist crazy ideas, you know, ideas that would, again, as you say, differences of opinion.
Matt Mowers
Right. And that's the problem. So we talked, we had a great event this morning with Jason Miller, panel discussion here in Budapest. And a lot of it focused around free speech, because that's the first thing they go after, Right. They start trying to encroach on free speech. Then they start trying to go after political parties and they start going after political candidates. And it's incredible how the left says they want to protect democracy only if democracy votes the way they want them to.
Jack Posobic
Well, this was incredible because. And obviously we just saw the situation in Romania regarding that. But Jason mentioned something at the discussion this morning, panel discussion, as well as something that I think J.D. vance sort of touched on when he spoke in Munich. Another event I attended a few months ago here in Europe, where there's this idea of these new. So there's the tariffs are on, the tariffs are off between the eu, but there's all these questions about trade deals. Jason mentioned that there is a growing sense that the US Is going to want to see real commitments to freedom of speech tied to trade. And this is a radical idea, something that I don't think any president has ever tried before. First Amendment, of course, doesn't exist in European constitutions. You won't find things. I personally was detained at the World Economic Forum for doing this show just a couple of years ago and just speaking out. And I don't get to turn back to the First Amendment and say, oh, well, you can't do this because it doesn't exist. So are you hearing that sense as well about this tie between the First Amendment and these trade deals?
Unknown Speaker
Yeah.
Matt Mowers
No. You're seeing the Trump administration say that if we're going to have a real relationship with Europe. And look, the Trump administration values the relationship with Europe. I think the left likes to say, oh, well, he's deteriorating the relationship. No, he believes in the relationship. It should be so strong. It has to be based upon truth and honesty. I think that's what J.D. vance was talking about in his speech at Munich Security Conference, which is, if we're going to have a real dialogue, a real relationship, we have to be honest with each other. We have to have those tough conversations. Conversations. If we're going to say we're this beacon for, you know, democracy and the cradle of civilization and all these things, you got to act that way.
Jack Posobic
And he kept pointing out that all of these values come from Europe originally. They were transposed. The United States didn't exist as a country.
Matt Mowers
And so I think President Trump and his team with Marco Rubio and others, Scott Besson and Jameson Greer, are saying, if we have to fundamentally reset the European relationship. And so, yes, it's about trade. You know, it's ridiculous that there's as many Audis being driven in the US but no Fords being driven in Europe. Right. Like, we should fix that, but then we also have to fix the fundamentals. You know, we're going to truly have this relationship moving forward and not just talk about it in the rearview mirror. We have to actually have an honest discussion about what Europe is doing. To its own citizens. You know, and you're seeing this crackdown on political parties. You're seeing the crack crackdown on free speech. You're seeing censorship. You're seeing what they're doing with the Digital Markets act, which is essentially hamstringing US Companies that are trying to provide the platforms and the technology to provide for open dialogue in Europe. Europe's now trying to smack them around. So we need to have an administration that says we're going to reset the dialogue here, we're going to reset the relationship and to be based upon the actual free speech that we talked about, the actual values we talk about. And if we can get that right, we can get the trade right too.
Jack Posobic
Well, and it all ties together. I mean, there's an obvious connection between the US And Europe. There's obvious reasons to want to have that healthy relationship vis a vis so many things. Obviously the peace deal, that which we're certainly hopeful that goes through, we're not very far away from the Ukrainian border right now as we sit. And that's something that Viktor Orban, I think is obviously not in direct, you know, lockstep with the rest of his EU leaders, to say the least, on when it comes to it. But it's also something that is a very salient issue in this part of the world. And so I think listening to these various voices, and that's also something that the forum has done to come back to the United States and explain, hey, these are real security issues that they have that goes back to NATO.
Matt Mowers
Yeah. And I remember when I was in The State Department Department In 2017, 2018, Donald Trump had just won. It was a sea change in the United States. We had to remind the State Department bureaucrats, the career foreign service officers that there was going to be a new relationship with Hungary and like minded leaders around the world who were doing things that were so crazy, they said, like secure their borders. So crazy. Like saying like we should actually have Hungarians determine Hungarian outcomes.
Jack Posobic
Far right.
Matt Mowers
You know, Soros and the rest of them to dump in millions of dollars every year to dictate the outcomes of elections. You know, these were common sense things. And it's amazing, eight years later, we're the ones who have the movement now. We're the ones who actually have across the world the understanding from folks that this isn't some fringe idea, this is just common sense. People want safe streets, they want secure borders, they want good jobs, they want economic freedom. These are the fundamental values we need to be talking about. Both sides of the Atlantic And I think those are the types of issues that we're talking about and bringing a spotlight to at the EU US Forum.
Jack Posobic
Where can people go to get more info of the EU US Forum? Follow the panel and everything that's going on.
Matt Mowers
They can go to euusforum.com they can follow us on X, they can follow us on other social media channels and they can find out all the information, get involved. I mean, we're going to be doing a lot more events on both sides of the Atlantic. We'll have a couple coming up in D.C. we're going to have be back here in Europe, Europe at some point soon too. It's really important for us as populist conservatives to actually continue working on this because it's not going to fix itself.
Jack Posobic

Matt Mowers

He's been, you know, meeting some people. You got actually some interesting stories about a NATO referendum that's being held here in Hungary.
Kevin Posobic
Yeah, I have, I'll get more into it after the break here. But yeah, as we were coming in, there's just billboard after billboard of Zelensky on this Billboard and it's Vox 2025, which means Vote 2025 in Hungarian. And Orban and the government put forth this. Yeah, this national consensus, if you will.
Jack Posobic
So it's a national referendum. Referendum, sort of a ballot test. And it's all about Ukraine and NATO. This is huge stuff. See, folks, this is huge because these are stories that affect us in the United States and yet we don't hear about them because we're not here.

Jack Posobic
Prozobic back live, Human Events Daily, Real America's Voice, and the Salem Radio Network with Charlie Kirk. Third hour, Kev So we were talking just before, in the last segment, I want to correct something. I just said this. There's a referendum that's going on in Hungary that's coming up very soon regarding whether or not Ukraine should be allowed into the eu. I actually said NATO, eu, whether or not they should be allowed in. Walk me through this. What are you learning? You're seeing these billboards up all over town. Viktor Orban's got them up. He used to put up billboards with George Soros all over town as well.
Jim Ferguson
Yeah.
Jack Posobic
When he was running those, those various operations. Right now he's got these Zelinsky ones up, tying him to Ursula von der Leyden and these other globalists. So what's, what are you hearing on the ground here?
Kevin Posobic
So these are, these are actual billboards now. They're, it's, you know, they're, they're not as modern and whatnot, but he's definitely taking a page from Trump's book and getting involved with the people as Trump does on, on X and whatnot. But this is a referendum for Hungarian citizens to participate in a vote. It's not a, it's, it's uncertified, I think, but it's still a vox papuli kind of vote where you can go online, put in your address, and then vote in favor or against Ukraine joining the eu.
Jack Posobic
So when you were out there, so.
Kevin Posobic
I saw Zelensky's face on the newborn.
Jack Posobic
You went out there to. And we've got some of these images that you sent in when you went out there to the streets Today. And I wish we had some of this video for the show, but we'll, we'll post it later on social media. So make sure you're following X. Make sure you're following human events daily on, on Twitter as well, and following Kevin@KevinPassoBobic. What were people on the street telling you?
Kevin Posobic
Well, believe it or not, I faced some, some stonewalls from a lot of people, but.
Jack Posobic
Right, right, of course I did.
Kevin Posobic
Look, I researched a little bit between yesterday and today and about a million people have voted already. It started about a month ago. Exactly. And it'll end at the end of June, so there's still a bit of time. So about a million people voted already and apparently two thirds have voted against. Against.
Jack Posobic
Two thirds of Hungarians have voted against Ukraine being allowed into the eu.
Kevin Posobic
Yes. So there's some sentiment. I got good footage of this guy who's on a moped, whatever, he's in this park. So I went to the parks earlier.
Jack Posobic
Kevin goes to the park.
Kevin Posobic
Well, that's where the locals will be at. Opposed to where we're at was more touristy and you know, you get.
Jack Posobic
Right. We're down by the river, so.
Kevin Posobic
So, yeah, so I don't know if it was the suit or the locals don't really like tourists, but I got a couple people to open up and the best I was to get was that the ones that are in favor are in favor, but when, when is the right time? Because they're aware and it seems that, you know, hopefully the war ends first. We were hoping for peace negotiations when you were there with.
Jack Posobic
Well, you can't, you can't have a country that's at war in.
Kevin Posobic
You can't have a country that's still actively at war. Also, because with a conversation with Jim earlier, him and I were talking about there's an idea to create an EU military to imagine.
Jack Posobic
I mean, I think everybody kind of understands being accepted into the EU would certainly avow itself of security relationships. Maybe not the NATO guarantee, but a security relationship where European countries then would come and fight for Ukraine rather than the US having that full trigger.
Kevin Posobic
Orban knows of the corruption from the Biden regime and whatnot. Amongst any other crimes in Ukraine.
Jack Posobic
We want to see.
Kevin Posobic
Yeah, he doesn't want Hungarian citizens taxed to get funneled through Brussels to, you know, go away from Hungarians.
Jack Posobic
Yeah, well, people definitely want to see this footage. So where can people go to find the footage? I know you're. You're working on producing it right now. You're going to get out where can they go to find it?
Kevin Posobic
We're clipping it. We're editing it at KevinPasovic. Kevposo got the American flag bandana at X. And Instagram of my most active accounts.
Jack Posobic
Actually, Instagram. He's. He's always up on the gram. Ladies, if you don't follow this guy. So, Kev, what are you getting into? Are you going to go around, going to find some Hungarian lasses this evening? Is that the plan?
Kevin Posobic
That's true. I got. I got some looks.
Jack Posobic
Oh, so looks. I see. You see, folks, I see what's going on. I bring him over. He's. I'm going to do man on the. The street interviews. Yeah, he's talking to all the cute Hungarian girls, so. Oh, you look like. You look like you got some opinions. You want to go viral. That's the plan, huh, Cap?
Kevin Posobic
You got a couple nods and winks.
Jack Posobic
Oh, a couple nods and winks. Oh, well, I understand. They say.
Kevin Posobic
They. They say Americans are like TV ready, but not so much over here.
Jack Posobic
So.
Kevin Posobic
I think they were little.
Jack Posobic
Maybe there's a little thing you're trying to. You got to coax. She's playing hard to get, Cap. She's playing hard to get.
Kevin Posobic
Think there was a little thirst for Americans.
Jack Posobic
Watch out for those green card traps, man. They'll get you every time. I know, folks, Jack Posic, Kevin Posic. We are out here, Budapest, hungry. Thank you so much for watching Human Events Daily. Yet again. Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay short.
Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec
Episode: THIS IS WHY PUTIN DOESN'T WANT THE WAR TO END
Release Date: May 28, 2025
In this compelling episode of Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec, host Jack Posobiec delves deep into the ongoing geopolitical tensions surrounding the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Recorded live from Budapest, Hungary, the discussion navigates through recent escalations, leaked information, European political dynamics, and the broader fight against globalism. Featuring insightful conversations with notable guests Matt Mowers and Jim Ferguson, the episode offers an unfiltered perspective on events shaping our world today.
Matt Mowers
A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
Introduced at [00:39], Matt brings a wealth of experience and a unique viewpoint to the discussion.
Jim Ferguson
A reporter from the United Kingdom, offering journalistic insights into European affairs.
Introduced at [06:13], Jim provides an in-depth analysis of the political climate in Europe.
Jack posits that Vladimir Putin has no intention of ending the war in Ukraine without achieving significant concessions. At [07:54], Jim Ferguson explains, "There are a huge number of people within the European elites that don't actually want a peace deal... Zelenskyy doesn't want to leave office, he's going to remain vulnerable." This sentiment underscores the complexities in negotiating peace, especially when key players have vested interests.
Jim further elaborates at [08:56], highlighting historical grievances: "the Minsk agreement... was only a front to allow Zelensky and Ukraine to rearm." This breakdown of trust emphasizes the challenges in restoring international respect and maintaining peace.
A significant portion of the episode focuses on the leaked text messages of Elias Rodriguez, the suspect in the killing of two Israeli embassy staffers. At [02:14], Jack shares disturbing revelations from the texts: "He says, 'you probably would have to actually genocide white people...'" This chilling admission frames Rodriguez's actions within a broader narrative of white genocide, suggesting a targeted hatred that transcends anti-Semitism.
Jack summarizes the implications at [05:17]: "This hatred... is what we wrote about in Unhumans last year and you're now seeing it play out... on the streets of Washington D.C."
The episode touches upon President Trump's policy moves:
Transgender Athletes in California: At [01:38], Jack reports, "President Trump threatening to cut federal funding to California if it continues to permit transgender athletes to compete in women's sports."
Visa Screening Expansion: At [01:49], Matt Mowers states, "Cable directing US Embassies to temporarily stop scheduling new student visa appointments as the Trump administration works to expand social media screenings for applicants."
These policies highlight the administration's stance on social issues and national security.
The conversation shifts to the EU-US Forum and the ongoing battle between globalism and nationalism. At [06:35], Jim Ferguson emphasizes the importance of such forums: "The US EU Forum is incredibly important to bring conservative voices and patriotic voices together."
Matt Mowers adds at [22:25], "We needed to provide a forum... for populist conservatives to know who each other were, understand better policies, and also talk about how we can fight back."
This alliance aims to counteract the pervasive influence of globalist agendas in both Europe and the United States.
A critical segment addresses the crackdown on free speech in Europe, particularly in the UK under Prime Minister Keir Starmer:
At [16:50], Jim Ferguson explains, "Journalists have been locked up. We are not allowed to say what we think."
The discussion highlights instances of thought crimes and the suppression of religious expressions, as Jack narrates his personal experiences at [17:33].
These insights shed light on the increasing authoritarian tendencies in European governance, posing threats to democratic freedoms.
Kevin Posobiec takes listeners to the streets of Budapest to report on a pivotal referendum regarding Ukraine's potential entry into the European Union:
At [32:20], Kevin reveals, "There's a national referendum... whether Ukraine should be allowed into the EU."
He observes at [37:24], "Two thirds of Hungarians have voted against Ukraine being allowed into the EU."
Interviews conducted by Kevin indicate a significant portion of the population is skeptical, prioritizing peace negotiations over expansion: "They're aware and it seems that... hopefully the war ends first" ([37:45]).
This referendum underscores the regional hesitations and geopolitical calculations influencing EU membership decisions.
Jack Posobiec wraps up the episode by reinforcing the urgency of addressing these multifaceted issues. The live broadcast from Budapest serves as a testament to the interconnectedness of global events and their profound impact on national and international policies. Emphasizing the need for unity among populist conservatives worldwide, the episode calls for continued vigilance against globalist encroachments to preserve sovereignty, free speech, and national identity.
