Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events daily. Today is April 1, 2025 Anno Domini. And this will be the final episode of Human Events Daily. April Fools. No, seriously folks, today is a big day. We've got a massive elections going down. Florida, Wisconsin. I want all the cheese heads to get out there. Love Wisconsin. I never realized I'd spent so much. I would spend so much time in my life in Wisconsin. But with all of the insanity around Kenosha, Kyle Rittenhouse, all the reporting I did on that, ended up spending a lot, a lot of time in Wisconsin than was there last year, of course, for Milwaukee and the incredible RNC that was held just days after President Trump's assassination attempt. So my thoughts and prayers for Wisconsin. I hope everybody gets out there and performs well and pushes Brad Schimmel over in this very important election for the Wisconsin Supreme Court Court. But we also have to look at Florida. You got two special elections down there. And then going forward, there's a lot of work yet to be done in Washington, D.C. what did we see this week that President Trump has done that the media, of course, is not paying attention to? Well, number one, huge announcement regarding the tariffs. And the tariffs, of course, will take place tomorrow, Liberation Day in the United States. And we're going to have Richard Barris on for the full hour to discuss this. What do the tariffs mean? How is the messaging for the American people? And is there going to be pain in the process by. But remember, pressure creates diamonds, and that's exactly what the MAGA movement is. You're all a bunch of diamonds. So when we're looking into this, we have to understand President Trump put out this huge message that was totally overwatched by the media. And I get it, there's a lot going on. But don't listen to the media hoaxes. Pay attention to what's important. No interest on American car loans. If you buy an American car, you will not have to pay interest. This is huge. This is massive. Guess where you won't see it? The mainstream media. Guess what else you won't see in the mainstream media? Why was Kid Rock at the White House yesterday? Because President Trump signed an incredible anti online ticket scammer EO focused on the online ticket scalpers. And these scam processes that go on where they're using bot farms, many people, not even in the United States, in places like India and other where where they're going in, they're buying up all the tickets and then jacking up the prices to sell them back to the American people who actually want to go to the concert or sporting events. It's a disgusting practice. It's anti American. I hate scammers. Get rid of the scammers. Get them out of here. Send the scammers to Guantanamo Bay. That's where they belong. Folks, we've got a huge show today. Richard Barris, strap in right back.
Tanya Posobiec
Nothing will stand in our way. And our golden age has just begun.
Rich Barris

We had him on for a huge special last week, blowing up the self imploding. We talked about the, the hara kiri of this, the polling industry last week. But this, this week and today I want to talk really about where we're going as a country as Liberation Day begins tomorrow. We've got a special election day today, but really it's Liberation Day. It's all about the tariffs. Rich Barris is here. He's going to walk us through all of it. The people's pundit. What's going on, Rich?
Rich Barris
Living the dream, brother. How you been? Thanks for having me as always.
Jack Posobiec
Very, very well. And I appreciate you. So when, when we look at this stuff, Rich, you know, I get it. When. I'll just tell you a little anecdote, right? I'll tell you, I'm out with my brother. You know, everybody knows Kevin helps out in the show. He comes on quite a bit, the founder of the Gulf of America, where, you know, we're taking care of some stuff, have to get stopped for gas. We go to get gas. And talking as we usually talk, we're talking about the White House, talking about something Trump had. Just don't even remember what you're saying, but, you know, we're talking about, oh, it's so great. Trump did this, Trump did that. Guy who works at the gas station comes up to us. It was not a Wawa. Can't say, well, I was stepping out on Wawa for a moment there. Momentary lapse in judgment. I know, I know. But he comes up to us and he says, well, wait a minute, I hear. I'm dead serious. This happened. He goes, wait a minute, I hear Trump is gonna put these tariffs in. That means prices are gonna go up. And I said, well, yeah, the prices are gonna go up, maybe for a time free period, but we're talking about the foreign goods, and it's gonna increase the amount of jobs and the type of jobs you can get in the United States, which means you're gonna have more money. And he just kind of looks at me, he's like, but I thought Trump was gonna make the prices go down. And this is a guy who works at a gas station. He understands gas prices. He understands how that works. He's not the owner, but, you know, he has a general understanding. And I said that to him. He's like, well, I don't know if that's a good idea. You know, we got China owning all our debt. You know, that means that, that means we owe him a lot of favors. I mean, these people are not stupid. These people are busy, but they are not stupid. And so I'm sitting there thinking, man, this guy's making some really good points. So rich, when we hear that sentiment, when I'm getting that sentiment out in the wild, you know, what are some of the things that you're looking at, whether it's polling or just in your general tracking of public opinion regarding these tariffs? First of all, let's, let's, let's break it down for a second. You know, do you think the tariffs are a good thing? And why is President Trump doing this in the first place? He says it's to benefit the MAGA faithful and to bring back those manufacturing jobs to places like the Rust Belt, to places like Appalachia. But at the same time, we're also hearing people within that population group be worried about the rise in prices.
Rich Barris
Yeah, people have to remember what you just said is very important. People are busy, but they're not dumb. And I do feel like I can answer all of that, right, including whether tariffs are a good thing by just simply saying this. The, the White House is ceding a big part of this messaging war to the media and there's a much better way for them to address this. They have to remember that Trump was elected. I mean, there are peripheral issues, but he was elected from the two eyes, inflation and immigration. And yes, he's done a lot at the border. It's just an LA Times article about how it's basically, you know, come down to a trickle across the border. What used to be a flood is now a trickle. But people have an a habit of forgetting what is fixed and moving on. You have remind them. And when you're doing something like this, and Reagan did this when he implemented his economic program, you have to walk people through this stuff and you have to hold their hand a little bit through it. And I don't think the White House is doing that. And we could get into that in a bit more detail, but it is a good thing. And that's why you're seeing, you know, the president of you. I mean, Sean, come on. When was the last time you heard the president of UAW come out and praise a Republican president? They don't do that, Jack. You've been around a long time. I have been around a long time. United Auto Workers do not come out and support and praise a Republican president. But they are because they know that the agenda in the long run is the right thing. Same thing goes for farmers in Iowa and in the Midwest and the plain states. All these people are going to be affected. American made, X, Y or Z, they support it. And when we talk about polling, it is different in the Rust Belt in the Mid Atlantic than it is in the rest of the country. And you have to be very careful when most of your voters are not politicos. They're average people, working class people and average people who don't follow this stuff on a 247 basis, not because they wouldn't, but because they can't. They're busy paying their bills and making a living, taking care of their families. You have to be careful that what they hear is not only from the Washington Post or CNN or whatever. And it's not like they're reading them, but when you have, you know, how narratives work, I shouldn't have to explain this to people. And the bottom line is very simple, Jack. You can explain this to them in Their language, which I feel like the White House is not doing, it's just very textbook. It happens to all presidents. They get in the White House, they get a little bit isolated a little bit. You just explain to them something very simple. It's the same thing. You know, the political class basically gave the country a bunch of drugs and they got everybody addicted to these drugs. Was it good for them in the long run? No, it wasn't. And getting off of it, is it going to hurt? Is there going to be some pain when you, when you, when you break your addiction? In the beginning, yes. But in the long draw, you're going to be healthier. Yes. I mean, this is how speak their language, talk in terms they understand and. Right. I mean, it's the same thing. We're addicted to foreign goods, Jack, and it's not good for our body. And explain it to them.
Jack Posobiec
You know what, Rich, we had, we had Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessant here on the program last week, and that's exactly what he said. He said, look, we exchanged the American dream for cheap foreign baubles, you know, big screen TVs. And these baubles, these. Oh, we got this gadget. You got that gadget. But you look at where you live and you look at your town and you look how it's completely devastated. And it doesn't take you, you don't even drive far from any major city to find these towns that have just been completely devastated. I'm not just talking about in the Rust Belt or Appalachia. They're everywhere. We were in the Northeast the other day. We saw it. You can go anywhere in the country and see this stuff. Just signs of American devastation that are all over the place. That. But I will say though, when you drive through the Rust Belt right now, particularly parts of Ohio, it looks like they a war. And in a sense they kind of did.
Rich Barris
I was just gonna. It does because they did. They lost. An economic war can sometimes cause as much pain. You know, the, the. I actually had an economist once equate this to me and he said actually casualties in war, they're, you know, especially the dead, they're gone, Jack, and that's it. And they don't. They're not there to suffer through the consequences and the aftermath. Economic casualties are worse in a sense, because they are. And now they have a lifetime of pain that they have to suffer and go through. It's like the bars of, of people who have mental injuries from, from conflict. Right. It's almost the same thing. But again, I feel like the White House, and there's really just no way to sugarcoat this. I feel like they need a Bannon like figure to sit with the president for 10 or 15 minutes every day, whatever it may. Take everybody else out of the Oval Office because they, they don't understand the Trump coalition. Let's cut through it and let's just talk. Let's just talk Frank here. And to ground him, let me ask you a question. The press conference the other day, did you feel like he conveyed any of what we're talking in that press conference at all or was there a whole bunch of distracting issues that, that, that will be the sound bites and that will be the clips that are all over social media. Because remember, I mean, social media is a powerful force. It's not like you have to spend an entire hour speaking about this stuff. But if there's not something in there that directly addresses their fears, it's, it's not.
Jack Posobiec
This is big. This is very important. Rich, what you just said is very important. We got a quick break. Let's hold on that. We'll come right back to it. Human Events Daily.
Tanya Posobiec

We got Election Day today in Wisconsin and Florida, and they're already voting in Wisconsin and Florida. But tomorrow is Liberation Day, the day the tariffs hit. And President Trump is going big. He's saying tariffs on every single country around the world. And look, Rich, we've spent every day here on the program going through how what President Trump is doing is fundamentally restructuring the global economy. No more of this idea where American IP will be outsourced to the Lao Beijing of China, where they're going to be the global factory. And the people in the middle, right, the multinational firms, the IP holders, they're. The Silicon Valley is a huge part of this as well. They're the ones making billions and possibly even trillions of dollars. Honestly, if you look at it market on market off of this entire situation. But who gets screwed over the people in the middle? Why does Detroit look the way that it does and, and Chicago and oh, by the way, why does Shanghai and Shenzhen and Ningbo and all these cities in China, these port cities, why do they look the way they do? Because that's your money. That's your money that went over there. That's where all the wealth is going. It was a systematic wealth transfer from the American middle class to, which has seen the bottom absolutely fall out from under them over to places like China and other of these third world, these third world export outsourced job jobs. So yes, there's going to be, look, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, you know, Rich, it's like, it's like what you said before. When you're getting off an addiction, when you're getting off an addiction, you're going to have to go through withdrawal. There's, you're going to have to take your medicine and this is going to be the medicine, but it's going to be better on the other end. Talk to me through some other, some other messaging that you've seen regarding this.
Rich Barris
Well, it's also a national security issue and he doesn't ever phrase it like this, but it should be. If you remember Covid, for example, okay, during COVID we had issues finding very various medications, even the ingredients to medications, and it impacted antibiotics and other drugs. This, if you look, of course, pharmaceutical companies and the industry in general is on that list, then that absolutely should be a selling point. By the way, so are rare earth material, minerals, and so are components in icbm, the stuff that makes up microchips. Right? All of this absolutely falls under the purview of national security. And during COVID If the Chinese wanted to stick it to us, Jack, they could have. If there's another epidemic and we needed certain drugs like antibiotics or what, whatever it may be, they could stick it to us, they could hurt us. They have control over our supply chain in areas where we need to make sure we are prepared in the event of a catastrophe. Once upon a time, America had it all. America had all of it. But we do not anymore. And it's this based on this idea. And this is what globalism believes, that if we outsource our wealth to other areas around the world, we can stabilize the world. That we had World War II. We had World War I, I mean, dating back in the 20th century because other countries weren't economically stable. And basically, folks, the Chinese know what to do with your money better than you do. And they can make the world a better place and they can distribute prosperity. And that's going to stabilize everything. And we'll all hold hands and sing Kumbaya. And that is not what happened with outsourcing our wealth. The only thing we did outsource are our dreams. The integrity that comes with work, right? Our communities, the solidarity of our communities. We were talking about this before the show. You can drive through basically any state in the mid Atlantic, in the Midwest, and it's not just isolated in those areas, it's everywhere. And you can find hollowed out communities. Well, with that came broken families, Jack. With that came addictions. With that came joining gangs. I mean, there's so many, you know, there are so many, I can't even say secondary, but direct consequences of these policies that wound up being, you know, not just ethereal concerns, but they were.
Jack Posobiec
And then, and then. And we got a quick break, Rich.
Rich Barris
But people, you know, it's the death of despair.
Jack Posobiec
And then on the back of that they got told, oh, and by the way, the only way we can fix this is importing mass importation of Haitians and Venezuelans and H1, whatever, whatever age, I don't care, right? No more foreigners barging into our cities. What if we just rebuild our cities for our own people? This is the heartbeat of the MAGA movement here on Human Events Daily.
Tanya Posobiec
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 pullison.

Real America's voice. Also want to bring in the third hour of the Charlie Kirk network on the Salem Radio Network. We're on with rich barriers who are doing a big talk about the economic reconstruct of the global order. No more getting ripped off by China. No more having our jobs outsourced. The tariffs are the way through. People have to understand tariffs are a tool to balance trade. That's what it's about. So when you hear. And by the way, Rich, I love this. You know, there's so many Republicans, you can find out very quickly who the Republicans are that are in the pocket of Wall street and who the pockets are that, you know, who are in the pocket of, like the, the Chamber of Commerce, the Club for Growth, all this stuff. Because they're the ones. Oh, tariffs are a tax. Tariffs are a tax. Tariffs are a. They'll never sit down and point out that the way tariffs work is it's a tax on the foreign companies that are importing cheap goods into our country. And President, I will give President Trump credit for this because he's been very consistent in our message by saying, if you want to avoid the tariffs, make your products here in the United States. So we did, when we did the interview with Secretary Bess, and we called it Make Made in America Great Again. Make Made in America Great Again. That's what we're trying to get back. We're trying to get back to Made in America. And I get it. Like, I get it. This is going to. Who's this going to hurt? The big box stores? The Walmart? It's going to hurt Amazon. Oh, I'm so sorry, Jeff Bezos. It's going to, it's going to do all that. But here's the dirty little secret. Why do Amazon and Walmart and all these other companies run around and work so well? Because everybody likes shopping there. Because it's cheaper. Because as it turns out, people do base their decisions on economics. And certainly people do that in, in states and in areas that are more working class. And so if President Trump wants to continue to win over this population and continues to win over this, look, I get. By the way, I think it's smart to do this as far away from them. I know we have special elections today, but as far away from the midterms as possible, because hopefully things will have readjusted between now and then. But, Rich, walk me through, walk me through some of this, because there is, there is going to be pain, and it's not just the polling, but there is going to be. Look, there's going to be prices that go up because as it turns out, we have foreign goods that have completely infiltrated our country for such a long time. And I think, I think I like that idea. Infiltration, invasion, national security. These are all things that we can use to understand that, Right? It's like, if it's not made in America, that means it's made somewhere else. That means there's something wrong with It, Yeah.
Rich Barris
And that used to be the attitude that we had. But by the way, all these people, the terrorist attacks. The terrorist attack, they're all the same people who argue about tax avoidance behavior against. Right. So they don't see any plausible potential for tariff avoidance behavior. Of course people are going to start to try to avoid them if they're in place for as long as they are. And they're all also the same people who argued in the first Trump administration when he did engage in the use of tariffs on a much more limited basis, granted it was that there were would be a spike in the CPI because of automobiles. Right. Do you remember that? Of course that never happened and the CPI was basically flat the entire time. So I've seen people use Honda and other automobile companies as an example when the truth is some of the parts go back and forth over the border, Jack. But for the most part, stuff that we are buying here, you know, they, they could change some of their operations up to avoid those tariffs and you'd look at 60 or 70% that's already being manufactured here anyway. So. Yeah, I, I just think again that the bottom line is there is some, of course, some danger because if it's not explained to people properly, they won't understand what's happening. And all they know is that Trump was elected to stop that. That being said, we've pulled this a lot and when you tell or ask people if, whether or not they support tariffs as a use, you know, for trade negotiations, right. To restructure the economy, for national security, they do have, they definitely demonstrate the ability to deal with the pain. On the short term, of course, not long, you know, not very long, but on the short term in order to achieve the outcome that they want. And if you were to give people the option between keeping the status quo and, and, and, and this a short term chain, you know, short term pain that ends with long term gain, they'll pick that. They will. It's just that again, the messaging is so critical and so important moving forward, explaining to people because that the prices will go up on some stuff. You know it and I know it. Right. The price of eggs. That's all. That's all very well and good and I understand that's the talking point, but you can't spend your time talking about eggs, right. If the real issue is with the time they go to purchase their next vehicle or whatever it may be. Right. So then they have to make sure that they're talking about relevant stuff here. And I keep going back to that because Obviously, what I'm saying is that I don't think they're doing a good enough job doing that right now. And. And I. I also wouldn't undersell the American public. So part of that is on the White House to make that message clear. And. And the American public will stay with you if they understand you have a clear vision for the future. That's what I'm trying to. I guess that's what I'm trying to say here.
Jack Posobiec
Look, the clear vision for the future, and I think that really sets the stage, right? The clear vision for the future. It's made in America. Made in America is coming back. Imagine your town not being surrounded by migrants and actually having jobs that can. By the way, every time I see one of the jobs that you can go to that are good, and a place that you'll want to work at for 20 years, for 30 years, not just someplace that pays the bills, but a place that'll actually take care of you. You know, I talked about both my parents had jobs like that. A lot of people in that generation had jobs like that. And those jobs that. That whole world doesn't exist anymore where a company will take care of you and send you back to school and do all this stuff. Maybe the military. I think it's like the only organization that's still like that in America. But, you know, we were talking to Kenny Cody here the other day, the new opinion editor over at Human Events, and he said, you know, you talk to a lot of people and they talk about the greatest generation. The greatest generation. They are, you know, so much awe. And all the movies are about it. He goes, well, you know what President Trump is trying to do? He's trying to make the next greatest generation. I love that. I thought that was so good. The next great generation, we're going to have that. Coming up. The Zoomers could be the next greatest Generation, which. Which, by the way, when you say that to a zoomer, it's so jarring, because they're one of the most cynical generations that has ever existed. And I think that's one of the reasons, actually, that you saw so many Zoovers come on board to support President Trump because they're so upset with the way things are in this country. They really want actual change, not just like some fake, phony Barack Obama promises. They want someone who goes against the grain, and that's Donald Trump. But at the same time, that means they want to actually see that. But I don't know that they've internalized that. Things actually can get better. They really and actually can get better. So, so rich when you look out at those populations, because I see it and you know what? But the flip side of that cynicism is the Luigis, it's the cult of Luigi, it's the populist left, it's them going so in the opposite direction saying oh you know what, I don't like the system so let's burn it all down. The Tesla terrorists, the dealerships, all the rest of it like that. So rich, how do you get this across? Let's say you're someone who is in college now, is just coming online in the jobs market and say whoa, what's going on? All these prices are going up. What do I do?
Rich Barris
Well, I just point out that that zoomer generation, so many of forget about how much more you know an automobile is going to cost. Too many of them couldn't afford one right now, right? So this is what people like, this is what the Cato and the American enterprise class are all missing. They can't afford one right now. So you think they're going to care much about, about a tariff levied on a car they can't afford? I mean get. They want a different system that pays them enough where they're honest, they go to work, put in a certain amount of time every work, every day that is expected of every normal human being and they can come home and take care of themselves that when they get out of that, you know, four year college that they're going to be able to do something with that degree or, or if they don't jack and they, you know, try to get into a trade again or so we live in a world like that. I mean Vogue has completely disappeared from this world, right? So not everyone is even in that, in that generation, not everybody is, is even, you know, I don't want to say college material, but you know what, I'm there. That's not their path, that's not their destination in life. There's something else that they can do. Their problem isn't their innovation or their work ethic. The problem is the opportunity that that's out there. It's not there for everyone. So again, even if they were to, even if they were to see a price on a car, what does it matter if you can't afford that car? I really think people need to understand that. And that's what, that's really the message. They have to move, they have to going forward and trying to rebuild the society to the point where everybody has access to things that Right now, so few do. It's that simple.
Jack Posobiec
I, I love everything you just said there because it's like we're actually going to do something that helps you out, I think. You know, I saw something trending the other day. I don't know if it's Warren Buffett or someone who says something like, said something like, oh, why don't you go buy a house for $20,000? I was like, whoa, what? And he was like in some interview and it's going viral right now. And it' they're. They actually think like that rich. They actually, they're that out of touch. They think that's what a house costs.
Rich Barris
And by the way, the generation, that greatest generation, when a house still did cost five to twenty thousand dollars, they paid a ton on taxes. A ton. And by the way, this is not new to the United States. It's just new to this generation. The United States survived and protected itself as a young republic using merciless systems, tariffs and protectionist policies. This is not novel, right? All of these people who are against tariffs are all founder quoters, right? They're all, they all hearken back to the Constitution and that's, it's just inaccurate. I mean, we were of course free market domestically, but on a foreign policy basis, it was national security.
Jack Posobiec
No, it's all changed. It's all changed. It's all shifted. As you consumers feel it, millennials feel it. President Trump is working to actually set things right. We'll be right back. Cum Events Daily.
Rich Barris
Jack is a great guy.
Tanya Posobiec
He's written a fantastic book. Everybody's talking about it.
Rich Barris
Go get it.
Tanya Posobiec
And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event. And we're going to turn it around.
Rich Barris
And make our country great again.
Jack Posobiec
Amen, everybody.
Unknown Speaker
People sometimes think that under the Biden administration that he was simply asleep with the switch. He was asleep. They weren't asleep at the switch. It was a massive, large scale program to import as many illegals as possible, ultimately to change the entire voting map of the United States and disenfranchise the American people and make it a permanent deep blue one party state from which there would be no escape.
Look, if I hadn't seen this myself, I'm not sure I believed it. I went through it myself and mapped it. And Elon is right, this is true. The defaults in the system from Social Security to all of the benefit programs have been set to max inclusion, max pay for these people and minimum collection. That's what's happening. We found 1.3 million of them already on Medicaid as an example.
Jack Posobiec
All right, Jack Pacific, we're back. Final segment here, Human Events Daily. We're on with Rich Barris, the people's pundit. We're talking about Liberation Day. And the fact of the matter is this. The American people are getting finally right, Rich. Maybe, maybe we need one of those, one of those great, you know, one of those great populist slogans like you remember. Of course, we had the New Deal. We had the square deal, the fair deal, maybe the fair deal. I don't, I don't know if anyone's done that before, the fair Deal. But finally, the American worker is getting a fair deal from the American government for the first time since globalism took off and really took root all the way back in the late 1980s. The idea is we're going to bring those jobs back. We're going to have things made in America again. This will revitalize our country. It will revitalize all of it, because here's what happened. The cost of the convenience has stripped this country of its soul. It stripped our cities and towns of its soul. And President Trump is going to restore that through this tariff policy. What say you, Rich Barris?
Rich Barris
Well, first of all, I say that you just said exactly what the White House needs to say now, though, that the, that is the language you need to speak in. What are all of those phrases that you just brought up? And what, what do they all have in common? They're all iterations of popular sayings and popular vocabulary of their day. Okay, those are all, those are all, like, twists and plays, words that were used by the average people, average person in their time. Right. So what was Roosevelt doing? He was speaking to the Roosevelt Coalition. That's what he was doing. So while I love the clip that I just heard, that's great. But those are speaking to, like, new converts, Silicon Valley types who jumped off of the liberal bandwagon. This, this go around, this last go around anyway, in 24, they're all, you know, they're, they're speaking to their audience. What I'm saying is you just cannot miss out on your core audience. I'm not talking about the MAGA base. I'm talking about. Because they're never gonna leave, Jack. They're never gonna leave. I mean, it doesn't matter. The base of MAGA is with Donald Trump and with the agenda. It's this group that made up that's like an addition to the base that made up. They're a bunch of normies they're maha. Right. They were people who are attracted to Kennedy in the beginning of the campaign. And there are also people who are just average people normally not represented by the political system and don't even participate or engage in the political system because in large part because of what you just said, the system for the last, you know, ever since the 90s in many cases with these voters that we, we talk to, that may have been the last time they voted for a president was during Bill Clinton. Right. And since then, the, this system has just completely been working against them. Right. It has stripped them of their dream, it stripped them of their ability to believe. And no one has been talking to them. They're natural manga, they are, but they're not maga in the activist sense or they're not representing MAG on their social media accounts or in their, you know, or in their communities. Those are the people that I'm, I'm talking about and that I'm concerned of getting left behind here in the messaging and what you just said, really on, I mean, honestly, you just nailed it. You have to speak in those terms to reach these people because you have to keep them believing, right? If you want them to keep voting too, you have to keep them believing. They're smart enough to understand what's going on here. And I think a big part of what I want to say is don't sell these people short. They're not stupid. They're smart enough to understand a tariff strategy. Don't insult them by giving them, you know, the typical Washington speak or the typical, you know, White House messaging or whatever that goes for Republicans in the Senate and the House as well. Don't, don't insult them by doing that. Speak to them the way you would speak to your neighbor or your buddy and, and, and, and just be honest with them and they'll stick with you. But you have to lay, don't let the media tell them what's coming and what's in store for them. You have to do that yourself. And then they will, they'll trust you and they'll believe you and they'll stick with you going forward as long as what you say to expect and what you tell them is on the horizon is true. Because listen, Jack, I mean, what you're saying here, that's the bottom line and we said it in the last second. You can either stick with the status quo and watch it all go down slowly, right, because we're all on this sinking ship, or you can try something different with, with short term pain, a little bit of sacrifice and we can call all come out on the other end of this thing stronger together. You know, that's my way of saying it may not even be the best way. Right. But that is what you effectively have to tell them. And again, they'll understand.
Jack Posobiec
I. I love. You know what? You know, it'd be great, like a, like a national address, but not from the Oval Office. From like a factory with a bunch of union guys around them, the construction hats, the work boots, and saying, Mr. Trump, it's time to do this. We are embarking on a national experiment, a great experiment and a great campaign to restore our country, to restore the dignity of the American worker. And we are doing this for the American workers and the American families. I think if you frame it that way, it's all going to work. Rich Barris. Where can people follow you, brother?
Rich Barris
Best places always is on locals, people pundit.locals.com thanks, Jack. All the best, brother.
Jack Posobiec
Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay a show.
Podcast Summary: Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec
Episode Title: WORLD WAR TARIFF: Trump Launches Anti-Globalist Campaign for American Workers
Host: Jack Posobiec
Release Date: April 1, 2025
In the April 1, 2025, episode of Human Events Daily, host Jack Posobiec delves into President Donald Trump's robust anti-globalist campaign aimed at revitalizing American manufacturing and protecting American workers through the implementation of comprehensive tariffs. The episode, titled "WORLD WAR TARIFF: Trump Launches Anti-Globalist Campaign for American Workers," explores the multifaceted impact of these tariffs on the U.S. economy, national security, and the everyday lives of American citizens.
The episode opens with significant updates on recent policy changes initiated by President Trump:
Deportations and Security Measures:
Rich Barris announces, "[00:51] We have deported over 120 people that are on the known terrorist watch list," emphasizing the administration's commitment to national security.
Executive Orders on Ticket Reselling:
President Trump has signed an executive order targeting exploitative ticket reselling practices. This order directs the Federal Trade Commission to enforce price transparency and regulate online ticket sales more stringently. Jack Posobiec highlights, "[01:08] President Trump signing an executive order to protect exploitations of ticket reselling."
Imposition of New Sales Taxes on Imports:
The administration is set to impose new sales taxes on imports, a move expected to have substantial ramifications for Wall Street and the broader financial markets. Rich Barris states, "[01:19] The President set to impose new sales taxes on imports. And Wall street is bracing for the impact."
A central theme of the episode revolves around Trump's tariff strategy, dubbed as "Liberation Day," which is intended to restructure the global economic order to favor American manufacturing and reduce dependency on foreign goods.
Encouraging Domestic Manufacturing:
Trump asserts that the tariffs will "encourage manufacturing in the US and ultimately boost the economy" ([01:27]). This approach aims to bring back jobs to the Rust Belt and Appalachia, fostering economic growth in regions previously devastated by outsourcing.
Economic Sacrifices for Long-Term Gains:
Rich Barris draws parallels between economic restructuring and overcoming addiction, explaining, "[09:42] People have to remember what you just said is very important... like we're addicted to foreign goods... it's not good for our body." He emphasizes that short-term economic pain is necessary for long-term health and sustainability of the American economy.
The discussion highlights the challenges faced by the administration in communicating the benefits of tariffs to the general populace amidst skepticism and misinformation spread by mainstream media.
Effective Communication is Crucial:
Rich Barris critiques the White House's messaging approach, stating, "[09:42] The White House is ceding a big part of this messaging war to the media and there's a much better way for them to address this." He advocates for a more relatable and straightforward communication strategy that resonates with the average American worker.
Addressing Misconceptions:
Posobiec shares an anecdote about interacting with a gas station worker who misunderstood the impact of tariffs on prices, highlighting the need for clearer public education. He underscores, "[13:27] An economist once equate this to me... economic casualties are worse in a sense, because they are," emphasizing the long-term benefits outweighing immediate inconveniences.
The episode delves into how global economic policies intertwine with national security concerns.
Supply Chain Vulnerabilities:
Rich Barris explains, "[18:09] If we remember COVID... they have control over our supply chain in areas where we need to make sure we are prepared in the event of a catastrophe." He underscores the strategic importance of reclaiming domestic production to safeguard national interests.
Historical Context of Protectionism:
The discussion draws historical parallels to past economic policies, noting, "[33:07] The United States survived and protected itself as a young republic using merciless systems, tariffs and protectionist policies." This contextualizes current tariff policies within a broader historical framework of American economic resilience.
A significant portion of the conversation addresses the diverse reactions among different generations, particularly focusing on Millennials and Zoomers.
Generational Cynicism vs. Optimism:
Posobiec highlights the generational divide, stating, "[31:02] The Zoomers could be the next greatest Generation... one of the most cynical generations," contrasting their skepticism with the optimistic vision of revitalized American manufacturing.
Economic Opportunities for Younger Generations:
Rich Barris emphasizes the need to provide tangible economic opportunities for younger Americans, mentioning, "[31:02] They want someone who goes against the grain, and that's Donald Trump," advocating for policies that offer meaningful employment and stability.
The episode culminates in a strong endorsement of President Trump's tariff policies as a means to restore dignity and stability to American workers. Rich Barris concludes, "[36:30] They just cannot miss out on your core audience... they have to keep believing," reiterating the importance of maintaining clear and honest communication to sustain support for economic reforms.
Jack Posobiec encapsulates the episode's message by envisioning a future where America prioritizes its workers, saying, "[40:09] Imagine your town not being surrounded by migrants and actually having jobs that can... take care of you."
Rich Barris on Tariffs and Messaging:
"[09:42] ...Trump was elected from the two eyes, inflation and immigration... you have to walk people through this stuff."
Jack Posobiec on Economic Restructuring:
"[12:32] ...we're trying to get back to Made in America. And I get it, like, I get it. This is going to..."
Rich Barris on National Security:
"[18:09] ...pharmaceutical companies and the industry in general is on that list, then that absolutely should be a selling point."
Rich Barris on Communicating with the Public:
"[20:32] ...they need a Bannon-like figure to sit with the president... cut through it and let's just talk Frank here."
Jack Posobiec on Restoring Dignity:
"[40:09] ...embarking on a national experiment, a great experiment and a great campaign to restore our country, to restore the dignity of the American worker."
The April Fool's airdate adds an intriguing layer to the episode, subtly blending humor with serious policy discussions. However, the episode maintains a steadfast focus on the implications of Trump's tariff policies, presenting a narrative that champions economic nationalism and the rejuvenation of American manufacturing. Human Events Daily effectively underscores the administration's efforts to counteract globalist trends and reinvigorate the American workforce through strategic economic interventions.
