Ladies and gentlemen, welcome on board today's edition Human Events Daily. We're live on Real America's ocean. Looking at a live shot of a snowy White House right now. Snow hit in Washington, D.C. overnight, has been moving on throughout the day. But of course, Old Glory still flying outside, though I believe you're looking at Old Glory flying half mast. President Trump, of course, ordering it half mast for the death of the incredible National Guards woman who died defending our nation's capital or in fact, our nation's capital building just days ago. And in fact, I want to be clear about something, guys. I want to be clear about something when we talk about the National Guardswoman, when we talk about Sarah Beckstrom, think about this. Afghan migrants have killed more of our soldiers than anyone at January 6th.
They've murdered more people than were killed on January 6th. Oh, wait a minute. Who else was killed on January 6th? Another female service member, Ashley Babbitt, who was an Air Force veteran. So all of these things keep happening and yet for some reason we don't talk about them. Regarding January 6th, we're going to get in to the pipe bomb story in just a second. We're also later in the show going to talk about Netflix putting in a huge bid to purchase Warner Brothers. Hbo. The wokification of media continues. Obviously, massive antitrust questions and concerns there want to bring on. We have Julie Kelly on joining us today. Julie, how are you?
Julie Kelly
Hey, Jack.
Jack Posobiec
Well, Julie, let's get right into it because we saw this incredible and just stunning sudden arrest of the pipe bomber. I think we all can agree that this is information that the FBI had all along. Julie, just in the two minutes before the break, why do you believe that Chris Wray hid this information from the American people? Because it's clear to me that this had this order had to have come from the top.
Julie Kelly
Either one of two reasons. Number one, Brian Cole is an asset or a source for either the FBI or other law enforcement agency. Or two, the fact that he was young, is a young black male, potentially with ties to Antifa, Black Lives Matter, other leftist movement organizations. The arrest of either one of those, say April of 2021, would have completely decimated the developing January 6th insurrection narrative at the time and contradicted Chris Wray's claims about a white supremacist domestic terror attack on January 6th.
Jack Posobiec
So the issue then you think, and this is my biggest issue, is because it hurts the narrative. You've got this guy who's an African American. You've got this guy whose motive seems very shaky. We're told about anarchist writings yesterday. Now, CNN is to trying to say that he's some kind of MAGA person, but I want to dig into some of the questions about that. Who didn't you know, who believe that the election was stolen? Because it doesn't quite seem to line up. But it's very clear that this would have created problems for the Biden administration's narrative about January six either way, wouldn't it, Julie?
Julie Kelly
It absolutely was. And keep in mind, too, that Chris Wray was adamant even in February, March of 2021, that Antifa played no role in the events of January6. He was asked repeatedly that was a suspicion of the president and others that had expressed by the president that this was Antifa. There were J6ers who were absolutely insistent that they saw Antifa there. We now see video recordings of Antifa on the Capitol complex that afternoon. So if this individual is tied to an that would have been highly problematic for the FBI director who was insistent even under congressional, during congressional testimony that antifa was not involved in any way, shape or form in the events of January 6th.
Jack Posobiec
And of course, we knew from the start that it seemed as though information would be available. We pointed out all of the cameras that were around there. You, Darren Beatty, so many others. And so we're going to dig into all that. We've got more time coming up in the next block with Julie Kelly here on Human Events Daily.

Now it's time for everyone to understand what America first truly means. Welcome to the second American Revolution.
All right, Jack Pacific. We are back now live with Julie Kelly. And Julie has the author of Declassified Investigative Journalist. Julie, you've got a piece up today at American Greatness, or excuse me, it's. It's an older piece from American Greatness that you're re upping, where you were talking about the Fed napping plots that the FBI was up to throughout 2020. In those plots, what were they doing? They were using people to pose essentially as MAGA supporters or anti government types to then get people to try and commit crimes against political officials. Julie, why did you re up that today? Talking about informants, undercovers, federal handlers, FBI handlers, those types of things.
Julie Kelly
Well, look at what the FBI was up to in 2020. And this kind of like popped in my head as I was reading the complaint yesterday against Mr. Cole and that his purchase of these bomb components stretched over months, really over a year. I think the first purchase allegedly was late 2019. Well, what was happening throughout 2020? You had the Whitmer fednapping hoax. I've done a ton of reporting on that. You and I have talked about it. Dozens of FBI informants handling agents, undercover agents, set out to purposely entrap these men in Michigan, make it look like right wing militiamen supportive of Donald Trump were trying to kidnap and kill Gretchen Whitmer. What most people aren't aware of is during the trial that a second plot by the same FBI, the same main confidential human source informant, was also trying to do the same thing to at least one man in Virginia and trying to get him to execute the same sort of plot against Ralph Northam. And a lot of that involved advising this man how to build explosives. So is this a huge reach to believe that maybe this individual who seemed like kind of a loner, there's a lot of reporting on him, whether he's a left winger, whether he was just a loner, whether he was into some weird stuff that gets the attention of law enforcement, was he doing the same sort of thing? I don't know. Probably not. Is it a tiny possibility? Yes, because that's what we know all Chris Wray's FBI was doing throughout 2020. The Whitmer Fed, mapping the Northam Fed napping, embedding informants, and the proud boys and the oath keepers trying to gin up all these inflammatory group texts that were later used as evidence against them in their J6 trials. And then, of course, the setup of January 6th itself. So I guess this is where my thought process is right now. Could it be wrong? Absolutely. But given what we know the Chris Wray FBI was doing in 2020, is it possible that this Brian Cole is somehow associated with the FBI or law enforcement? And, Jack, that's why this case went completely cold as of March 2021, despite all the evidence that they had already collected. When you have Stephen Dantuano, who was head of the Washington FBI field office, told Congress that, you know, kind of after February 2021, interests lagged off and they were on to other things, and that's just how it goes. So why was that? Did they identify Brian Cole? Did they know that he was the hoodie guy? And did they bury it because it would have completely undermined the insurrection narrative or.
Certainly exposed him as some sort of law enforcement asset?
Jack Posobiec
Well, here's what I keep asking when. Because I see cnn, msnbc, and last question. They're trying to spread this narrative. Oh, this guy was maga. He believed that the election was stolen. Yet if that were true, why is he buying all of this material for these. For these pipe bombs long before the election of 2020? Like. Like in one case, I think over a year before?
Julie Kelly
Well, if he was a MAGA supporter and that the election was stolen, why wasn't he there on January six instead of january fifth when the protests were underway?
Tommy Stevenson
Also.
Jack Posobiec
Also with all the other MAGA supporters.
Julie Kelly
Yeah. A criminal defense attorney for J6ERS texted me this morning and said, you know, he. If he says he was a MAGA person or election denier, he's thinking he's going to be covered by the President's executive order. The blanket pardon of J6.
Jack Posobiec
Oh, I see. People get a blanket pardon. Oh, that's great.
Julie Kelly
Yeah. So that. That could be the motive. He nor his family appear to be anything close to Donald Trump or MAGA supporters. Let's just leave it at that.
Jack Posobiec
We'll leave it at that. Julie, I know you gotta run. Thank you so much for joining us, even via phone today. And thank you for all your journalism up to and including today.
Julie Kelly
Thanks, Jack. Talk to you soon.

The affidavit didn't come out during the show yesterday, so we didn't have the opportunity to be able to present that to you on the program. Now it's been out. More information has come out on the individual, his family, which has deep ties to Black Lives Matter. And one of the top lawyers of Black Lives Matter also deep tied a photo of the individual, Brian Cole Jr. Also, the fact that his father's business, his father's law firm was involved in suing the Trump administration for ICE and, and, and ICE allegations again, just doesn't really line up with someone you would expect to be a MAGA supporter. Want to bring on Tommy Stevenson now, who is the politics editor over at the Post Millennial, to dig through some of this affidavit with us. Tommy, how are you doing?
Tommy Stevenson
Good, Jack, how you doing?
Jack Posobiec
So, Tommy, walk us through it just in, in a, in a summary. What was this information that AG Pam Bondi said was sitting on the shelf collecting dust? How was it that they were able to identify and then make the steps that led to the arrest of Brian Cole?
Tommy Stevenson
So they started back with all the tips and information that the FBI had on Brian Cole, or not Brian Cole necessarily, but all the tips that they had leading up to the investigation from the previous administration. They went through everything else basically from the beginning. And then after going through millions of data points, they were able to identify the different cell phone data. That's really how they identified Cole as the suspect of him going to the area near the capital on January 5. And then also combining that with his credit card transactions where he purchased stuff going all the way back to 2019 to make these pipe bombs.
Jack Posobiec
Well, and that's what was so confusing to me, because.
What'S, what's.
Interesting is when I keep looking at these, these msnbc, the CNN articles that are out today, this new narrative, oh, he's maga. He's maga. Julie Kelly was just on asking questions about that. He was, if you believe the election was stolen, why wasn't he there on January 6th? If you believe the, if he's saying he's MAGA or, you know, he believed that he. Is it a play to get him a pardon or get him covered by the blanket pardon from President Trump, you know, ex post facto or, you know, or something to do with that. But when it comes to it, you've got the affidavit there. Was he only purchasing these items, these precursors for pipe bombs in, in the time between the election of November of 2020 and January 6, 2021.
Tommy Stevenson
So, no, that's a very drawn out timeline. It's all the way back to 2019. There were some purchases in June. It looked like he was purchasing these items for a whole year previous to the election or previous to January 6th. And so when you look at the timeline, it just wouldn't make sense for his motive to be related to him thinking that the election was stolen. Because if he was making the pipe bombs previous to that or getting the items necessary for it, the election hadn't even happened yet. So that narrative, how it's been leaking out to the press right now just doesn't make sense for a motive. The FBI hasn't identified any official motive yet, but we're still, they're still looking into those details and figuring out what exactly the motive was and everything that's related to that.
Jack Posobiec
I think that's certainly right. And so, so they're able to go through, they have the information of, in person, they tie that back to, to the credit card. And then with the credit card, they're able to also use to tie back to the cell phone. And just walk me through this, because I look at the affidavit, it says they have his cell phone going the exact same route as the pipe bomber on the evening of January 5th. And then they even have a photo of his actual car driving in the area on January 5th.
Tommy Stevenson
Yeah. So they had, they were able to identify his license plate from that photo and they gather the cell phone data of him going around the Capitol building And then traveling back because he still lives at his parents house I believe in Woodbridge, Virginia. And he, from what the looks of it is, is that people that knew him or neighbors that were around there said that he was very recluse and really get out that much except to walk his dog. And so, and then there were also some interests of like anarchist beliefs or writing. So you don't really know exactly ever. Well, you don't really, you don't really know everything that led up to it. But the FBI was able to identify everything with cell phone data. The car, because it was parked not far from the location of where the pipelines were. I think it was like a half mile away. But he had enough time to drive off in the hours leading up to.
Jack Posobiec
When they were found and then drive. So there was no metro. The metro was totally meant to throw people off. We write back Jack pos Tommy Stevenson here. Human Events Daily continues.

All right, Jack Kobe, we're back live here, Human Events Daily. We're on with Tommy Stevenson. He is the politics editor over at the Post Millennial. We're digging into this strange story of the Jan6 pipe bomber. Everything that's come out from the affidavit. So again, this information, when Dan Bongino, the deputy director, was talking about forensic information, you know, this wasn't some type of special information or special tip that just came in. This was basic cell phone data. The same type of cell phone data that the FBI used to make cases against 1600American Patriots from January6. And yet for Some reason the Chris Wray, Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, FBI and DOJ excluded this one. They said they couldn't find it. They couldn't find this guy, even though he's the only one walking around where the pipe bomber we can see on the video, is walking and in fact, walks back to his car, and we see his car driving around. Something, something is wrong in Denmark, as they say. But, Tommy, I wanted to dig in with you a little bit more, because when we look at these, to these questions of motive, look to these questions of positioning, and we say, you know, sometimes you look into these guys, you say, okay, there's no political connections. We can't see anything. Sometimes it's very. Sometimes they leave a manifesto. Yet right here we see that he worked for his father at a bail bonds company who was involved in. Who was involved in lawsuits, and in fact, was once represented the father by the Ben Crump himself, who was the number one lawyer of all of Black Lives Matter. What do we know about his father and about this, this bail bonds firm that he was working for?
Tommy Stevenson
So his father, with the lawsuit, they had sued the Trump administration over. It was. It was over illegal integration. And then they had also accused the. They also accused the administration of racism as well. His father had. And so you can kind of start to get a little bit of a picture with what his family was like, what he was like. I know he appeared in court today, and there were six members of the family that were there, and they were all. I mean, I can imagine if my family member was in court, but they were all very saddened by what was happening and what was going on. So it doesn't seem like he's estranged from this family. He was still living with his mother and his father. But there's definitely some connection, at least with the father to the Black Lives Matter movement, to left wing politics with his dad. But.
Right now, we just. With the motive, it hasn't been determined yet, but you can get an idea of where this guy was coming from.
Jack Posobiec
Yeah, again, I mean, it's something that just. It just jumps out at you. And as we used to say in the business, we would call that using a technical term, called a clue that. And it's just. You go down the list. I just pulled this up as you were speaking of various people that have been represented by Ben Crump. So George Floyd, literally George Floyd's lawyer, his. His family's lawyer, Jacob Blake from Kenosha, Wisconsin, who was the individual that the protests that led to Kyle Rittenhouse were taking place. Ahmed Arbery, the jogger in Texas. Michael Brown. Yes, the Michael Brown from Ferguson, Missouri. Henrietta Lacks, Trayvon Martin, Tyre Nichols, Breonna Taylor, Duante Wright. He represents the estate of Malcolm X as well, and apparently is also the lawyer for the father of the accused DC pipe bomber. Now look, you know, full disclaimer. Right. You know, you have to always say that just because you see the connection does not prove that there's any causation. But this is an extremely high profile lawyer here. And at the very least, and I'm not, I'm not saying that he's involved with the bombing or something like that, but at the very least, it's hard to draw a line from someone who's at the very heart of Black Lives Matter to a Trump supporter. It really is.
Tommy Stevenson
Yeah. And that's what they've been. You see the reports that are coming out now in the media that there are some that are claiming that he's a Trump supporter, citing anonymous sources. You also see the whole election.
The election integrity issue that people are saying that he thought the election was rigged. But you also have, again, they were talking about how he had anarchist ideologies. And so it's hard to believe that this guy was just pure maga when he wasn't. He, I mean, he was at the Capitol trying to, if he, if he was there, I mean, he hasn't been convicted yet, but as a suspect in both trying to bomb the RNC and the dnc. So we just don't know at this point where he's coming from. But you get some clues from the, the anarchist ideologies as well as who he was connected to with his family and how his dad was represented by Crump.
Jack Posobiec
Right. And, and we've seen no more information on that, on that as of yet. I think the father, the step, the, I believe there was a step grandfather who gave a statement, people saying that, you know, they were, you know, they had seen the FBI, that they had seen the police, and there was a bit actually, and you mentioned a little bit on it as well, where the neighbors had actually described him as being somewhat aloof, as being someone who was seen very, very insular, someone who was not very outgoing, someone who would walk the Chihuahua and they would see him, but not make eye contact with anyone, wouldn't say hi to anyone. You know, again, it just really, really sparks to, to be someone who's, who's potentially isolated, cut off a little bit. Other than this work for his father.
Tommy Stevenson
Yeah, for sure. There were, with the different details on his motive. It's just FBI hasn't made any official determination yet, but you can certainly see that it's starting to draw a picture of where he came from. And then you can see, like, the different aspects of his family. I mean, you could imagine what he was thinking when he was going up to the Capitol building, because I think he drove back like that night, and they were able to trace that cell phone data as he was walking around the capital region. And then.
Then he was able to go back. And it's.
Sorry.
But we just.
Jack Posobiec
Tommy, we're just about. We're just about out of time. Where can people go to follow you and follow all the reporting that I know you're going to be working on on this story?

Live. Human Events Daily. You're looking at a snowy shot of the white house there. 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Folks, let me tell you something. Did you know. Did you know that Utah and Florida recently banned fluoride in their drinking water? Why are they doing a massive U turn on something that's been pumped into our water for 80 years? Well, the government claims that fluoride is quote unquote, for healthy teeth. But that's just nanny state nonsense. You don't need bureaucrats medicating your water. You need the freedom to choose pure water. That is why my family uses Cove Pure. And this Christmas, soaking yours, and so can your families and friends, it transforms your countertop water purifier. That is. It is a countertop water purifier certified to remove up to 99.9 of impurities. That includes fluoride and other garbage like PFAS, fertilizer, runoff, you name it.

You have to do it yourself. That's co pure.com posto coffee for $200 off. Okay. One of the biggest stories of the day, one of the biggest stories of the day today is this huge media merger where Netflix and HBO Max are trying to create a monopoly over streaming. This become this massive behemoth taking up so much of the audience space and then squeezing out everyone else. Comes at a time when Disney plus, as we know, has been crashing all around the world and Netflix wants to come in and gobble it up. Why do they want to do that? Well, it's very simple because all the way back in 2018, Netflix signed a huge deal. With who? Brock and Michelle Obama. And then they put Susan Rice on the board of Netflix and then Susan Rice went back into the Biden administration. Then she came back to Netflix in 2023. And guess what Susan Rice did right after she came back to Netflix. Oh, that's right. She extended the Netflix deal with Obama and with Barack Obama and Michelle Obama. Okay, so Obama, Netflix is now looking to take over, right? To take over Warner Brothers, HBO. And does anyone remember around 2018, why was it that Netflix just seemed to kind of go crazy where shows that were good all of a sudden became super woke? You needed LGBT themes and everything. You needed racial themes in anything. Why did that happen? Why we. All you have to do is go back and look that it was 2018 was the year when Barack Obama and Michelle Obama signed a massive deal with Netflix. And so Stranger Things where if you go back to season one was just a great deal show about small time, you know, small town mystery series set in the 1980s. Let's go and look at what Stranger Things put in their season opener this year.
Tommy Stevenson
We can begin.

We are going to do such beautiful things together. Will you mad?
Such beautiful things.
And that's the coast. That was the video that I've been saying is. I'm just going to call it out. It's pedo programming. It's what it is. It's pedo programming right there on Netflix. We're in a show that is marketed to children. Want to bring on now author Peachy Keenan, herself a mom, to get her take on all of this. Peachy, how are you?
I'm doing great. How are you, Jack?
I'm, I'm angry. I'm outraged because, you know, you're seeing this stuff where Netflix, which has just been an absolute atrocity when you. It's like a war crime in terms of, you know, entertainment media pushing wokeness. It's one of the biggest propaganda pushers of. Of wokeness of lies, of just. Just absolute insane, deranged content. They had that trans writer who in a trans kid show who was like badmouthing Charlie Kirk right after he died. Again, another Netflix show. Gayness injected in everything for kids. Should we actually, you know, there's the Stranger Things piece and the WB piece. What is your take? Just. Just run with it. PG Keenan.
Yeah, I was watching the premiere with my kids. That was the first. That was the opening moment. And honestly, it's hard to watch. I mean, he loves caresses his face. It's like so they linger on that for so long that it's like, oh, okay, I get it. What other interpretation can you possibly make? I mean, is Vecna is gay also, like, the bad guy is gay. That's sort of like.
Oh, so we've been. By the way, we've been. If you caught our. And we're going to put a special out on this because we're clipping it did a whole like, special on this on Thought Crime last night with me and the Thought Crime gang. And so I referred to this new season as being very clear because it's a retcon. They're going back to season one and now changing the entire series. Right. This se. This scene is not a season five scene. This is a season one scene because Will is still a little boy. And so now this makes the entire show of Stranger Things now essentially gay Darth Vader and gay Luke Skywalker.
Yeah. And it. Yeah. I think it is apparent that that was probably not the intention in season one. And they have gone back.
Of course not. That was the pre Obama Netflix. That's. I'm trying to like that in pre Obama Netflix, it was like nostalgia and we got synth music and the riding bikes or look, walkie talkies like E.T. that's all it was. It was just a fun. And by the way, by the way, here's what's so great. You go to season one and two of the program. What was it actually about? It was about MK Ultra. They're MK Ultra ing us in a show that used to be about MK Ultra. I. The Psyops do not stop. Peachy. The Psyops do not stop.
They really don't. I mean, the Duffer Brothers. I mean, you know, I was actually looking into their backgrounds. I don't seem to be like these sort of supervillains. But then when they had in the new season the like new footage they recreated of the two male main characters as little best friends. They were best Mike and Will best friends. And now they're kind of implying that that's when they first fell in love as little five and six year old boys on the swing set. It wasn't just here's where the two best friends met and bonded. It's like the secret unrequited crush that I think is gonna be explored in the next few episodes. But then you're saying, okay, well this.
Wait, wait. So this is exactly what we were talking. No, this is exactly what we were talking about on the show last night. Because this was my theory and producer files on the show who I keep telling him he's got to come on because he's got all these great theories about it and he won't come. He's never been on the show. And we totally agree that when you look at that montage of Will and Mike when this is even younger, that it's, it's done as like a romance montage like you would see in the 1980s, but usually, but in an actual 80s movie it would be a boy and a girl.
Right? They've sort of like turned the whole thing on its head. And like also the weird thing is there's two of the main characters are gay. There's a lesbian and a gay gay, a lesbian couple and a gay couple. And it's a very small group of friends. I mean, I grew up in the 80s and I don't remember people having, having like that many, you know, openly gay teenage friends. It just like sort of, it wasn't really a gay thing. I'm sure they, they were around and stuff, but it just, it didn't become the centerpiece of anyone's life. It wasn't really something.
It wasn't a thing. It just wasn't a thing. No, it wasn't a thing in the 80s. It was not.
And so I just think the choice to have the, the, the kind of like, you know, tube into the little boy's mouth, you know, there's other ways for a supernatural bad guy to kind of get his bad ideas into you. There's all kinds of do. He's telepathic. He could telepathically, you know, kind of take his brain. The mind Flayer thing. Why the like, you know, visceral, like slimy tube down his throat. I Mean, and it like lingered. It's just the lingering and the lovingness and Vecna with this sort of orgasmic, ecstatic look on his face. We get it. And so what is that? Is that just. People at Netflix are so porn brained. Are they? What are they? What are they watching in their free time? What are they thinking about in their free time? It's also very lazy. He's gay because he was molested as a child by this, you know, demon. What? That's like, okay, that's like very kind of surface and, and just feels very kind of cliche and generic, frankly. Like, isn't there something else here? Something more creative you could come up with?
Well, it's, you know, it's one of those things where, you know, I, I actually had an interesting theory. It's like, what if somebody was actually sort of like, kind of, you know, kind of like right wing who was just like secretly in the back of the, of the writers room somewhere and he's going and just saying like, hey, hey, what if we have him be abused by Vecna and that's why he's gay and the other writers are like, oh, wow. And they just. But he just kind of slipped it in, not actually realizing like, what that said because it's clearly at odds with the actual text and dialogue of Will's later conversation with Rob Robin where she talks about embracing yourself, etc. Etc. It's like, no, actually what you're doing is reacting to serious physical and emotional trauma. Jack was up with Peachy Keenan right back.
Jack is a great guy. He's written a fantastic book. Everybody's talking about it. Go get it. And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event. And we're going to turn it around, around and make our country. Amen.
All right, Jack Rasopic, we are back live with Peachy Keenan. And so peachy, we're, we're in agreement. It sounds like what they're doing and you know, I'm sorry, like, you just can't look at the first two seasons of, of Stranger Things are done. Like, I'm standing on my theory. I will die on this hill. The first two seasons of Stranger Things were done prior to Obama's involvement with Netflix. And like the Obamas and Susan Rice, the who enterprise. And then suddenly season three, season four just get a little bit weirder and a little bit gayer. Just goes gayer and gayer and gayer and gayer and gayer. And then all of a sudden, by Season five, you've got little, little Will as a little boy getting this, like, hentai Japanese tentacle porn, which, by the way, is a thing in Japan. Go ask Kurt Eichenwald about that because he's into it. That. And we know because we've seen his computer screen, unfortunately for the world, but the Internet is forever. And. And like, that is the writers, you know, thinly veiled fetish just put on the screen. Like it's. It's so weird. And I don't know if it's porn brain or Reddit brain or. I mean, that's actually the same thing being displayed up on the screen, but that's what it is. Now tie that back, because we're now seeing that they are going to potentially, if this deal goes through Netflix, who's doing all the things that we're talking about here. And the Obamas will now control all of HBO and all of the Warner Brothers, which means the great HBO shows like Sopranos and the Wire get rebooted. Now everybody's gonna be gay and everything's gonna be crazy. How did Tony Soprano become Tony Soprano? Oh, boy. Maybe he got the tentacle porn too. You'll see that with young Tony. And I don't even want to think about what they'll do to, like, the Looney Tunes, Superman, Batman and Robin. I mean, it boggles the mind. It really boggles the mind.
The mind reels. So, yeah, if they buy Warner Brothers, it'll just be a monster. I mean, that company will be almost, I think, too big. Reed Hastings, the CEO, the founder of Netflix.
Him and his wife are super far left, and they give away a lot of their money. I think they. But they make these huge, huge donations to the HBCs, the historically black college and universities, and they give massive donations to, like, Howard University and all the, like, you know, the Obama, Kamala Harris sort of like network of schools. And that's like their main. Their main donation. And so I feel like that is absolutely. They want to please the Obamas. The Obama's team, which I might include one of their daughters, I think is in entertainment. And you can just imagine these writers rooms are all very queer, whatever. And so they're on. I mean, GLAAD in Hollywood has staff embedded in writers rooms, in development meetings at Netflix, at all the studios, and they're reviewing scripts. You'll have a far left LGBTQ activist who is working with the writers to get in all the gay storylines. I mean, that's just why. That's why you have, you know, gay Buzz Lightyear and all the. All the other things that we've seen over the last few years. The reason why Disney's last two movies, two animated movies, were giant flops is because the characters were, like, you know, gay, autistic children or whatever they were. It doesn't work. It's not gonna. It works for them. They love it. Diversity is their strength, but unfortunately, it's not ours. And this is why children's entertainment has become, like, such a minefield. I mean, what do you show? What do you sit down and watch a movie with your kids? You have to go back to the. To the classics. You just have to keep going back to the 80s movies, actually, which were a little.
I'm just gonna tell people. I don't. I don't. I don't always talk about this publicly, but I do run. I'm not gonna say the name of it because it's not public, but there are ways where you can run your own servers at home so you can get, like, a streaming server that is based on your computer and that sends streaming content to all your devices within the house. And if you. Depending on the plan, you can. You can get it even remotely. And then. So you can just get whatever you want. You can just get whatever you want. You can get old stuff, by the way. My kids love old. My. My son, who's 7 years old, loves Dick Van Dyke. He loves the Dick Van Dyke Show. He thinks it's the greatest thing. He's counting down because Dick Van Dyke will, you know, he'll turn 100 in about a week here. So that's like, something on December 13th. So my son's been like, that's, like, a big thing in our house. And it's like, why does he love the Dick Van Dyke Show? And I'm like, I don't know. I don't care. But I love that he likes it. Or like, the old Adams family or there's a ton of Scooby Doo, you know, the older ones, because the newer ones, they turned Velma gay. Remember, they turned Velma gay in the new Scooby Doo is like, nobody is safe. Which. Not even sure if that's WB off the top of my head. But again, this stuff is out there like crazy. And to your point, you just have to go back to the old things.
And they're remaking now all the movies from our childhoods. They're digging up those. They're doing Goonies. They're doing Gremlins.
They're doing Goonies. Are you serious?
They're doing Goonies and so just imagine.
Are they bringing back the kids or like they're bringing back the kids or what?
Don't know what they're doing. It's like very slow development, but you can just imagine. Yeah, just picture Goonies being made.
Nobody told me that. Pg, why are you doing this? I'm crashing out on my own show.
No, Goonies is like the touchstone, like the, the, you know, the most fun. The kind of like the movie that started all the other like, kid movies.
Oh, yeah, it's Indiana Jones for kids.
Julie Kelly
Right.
Jack Posobiec
And it's perfect. It's great. So fun. But just imagine what they're going to do, how they're going to cast it. You know, it's just going to be. Your mind just goes. I mean, it'll just be.
We're gonna learn how. We're gonna learn how, how, how. Chunk was like just misunderstood. He was just, you know, and actually they were. They were abusive towards him and they should have accepted him better. Oh my gosh.
We. My studio is a couple of floors up and I'm looking at the window right now. I'm. I'm not even, I'm not even joking right now because this is bad. This is so bad. No, no, no. I can't do it. But not Goonies. Not Goonies. Well, I mean, even my mentioning. You mentioned Indiana Jones, actually. Or I mentioned Indiana Jones, but you know, my son will ask me, he goes, daddy, are there more Indiana Jones movies? Only three, buddy. Nope, just three.
That's right.
There are. Any more. They didn't make them anymore. Don't know what happened there. But yeah, Google that. Three was enough.
Don't bother.
Yeah, they ruined, by the way. And one of the things that, that I always get, you know. And let me ask you what you think about this. So one rule that I have in my house that we've had since my kids were born is that we are a Star wars free house. There's no Star wars in the house at all whatsoever. And now that's because my kids have never seen Star Wars. So they didn't, they didn't know Star wars when it was good to what it become that became now they own. There's only the Star wars now. And I'll tell you what made me stop doing it is because we went to Disney back in, I guess like 2019, right? When they in California, when they in Anaheim when they first opened the Star Wars Land. And I'm telling you, the people who were there creeped me out. They all Gave off PETO vibes. I'm just saying it. Every single one of them, they're, like, wearing black in the middle of the summer. They're walking around talking about proper use of the lightsaber, and I'm like, I don't want my kids around this ever. And my wife coming from Eastern Europe, and she's like, no, you know. You know, Tanya, I don't have to.
Ban Star wars in my house. My kids just aren't interested. When they were little. I have teenagers, so when they were little, they loved the first three movies. We would go to Disneyland and they had like, the Jedi Academy and Darth Vader comes out.
It was old. That's what I'm talking about.
You know, Yoda and Darth Vader.
Oh, you mean the old. Yeah, sorry, you mean the pre. Yeah, the pre Disney ownership of Star Wars. Yes. Yeah. They had the original.
Disney bought it, right? And they had all this content at the parks and characters walking around.
Tommy Stevenson
Star Tours.
Jack Posobiec
It was called Star Tours.
They had a Disney. They had a Jedi Academy where little kids would. In real life, Darth Vader would come out and fight lightsaber with them at the park. Great. Super fun. Like, great. Yeah.
Little kids being warriors. What could be wrong with that?
You were learning how to be a Jedi, and that's so fun. And now they don't bother with the movies. They don't watch any of the shows. I don't even have to tell them we don't watch Disney in this house. Star wars in this house. They don't care. Kids do not care because Disney has given up on kids and now they just care about adults.
No, really creepy adults who are trying to be kids. Like Blippi, who is another Netflix star who. I'm sorry, he just. He just gives all PETO vibes. Like obvious PETO vibes. If you're an adult trying to act like a kid. PG Keenan, where people go to value Keenan.
Peachy on x and peachy keenan.com is my substack. Thank you, Jack.

In this episode of Human Events, host Jack Posobiec delves deep into two headline stories:
Guest experts Julie Kelly (Declassified investigative journalist), Tommy Stevenson (Politics Editor, The Post Millennial), and author Peachy Keenan join the show to unpack the investigative and cultural implications. The episode is marked by skepticism towards mainstream and institutional narratives, a critique of left-wing influence in culture, and repeated references to American and Christian values.
Summary of the Case
Controversy about the Timing of Arrest
Julie Kelly's Analysis (Declassified Investigative Journalist)
Debating Media Spin
Role of Informants/FBI Manipulation
Challenges to Narrative Consistency
Details of the Merger
Concerns About Media Monopoly and Content
Cultural Content Critique — Stranger Things Example
Industry Mechanics
Nostalgia and “Cultural Rewriting”
This episode offers a critical lens on both the ongoing January 6th investigations — focusing on inconsistencies and possible narrative management around the pipe bomber arrest — and on perceived ideological capture of the entertainment industry following the Netflix–Warner merger. Guests voice skepticism toward mainstream narratives, stress the importance of questioning authority, and express concern about the future of children’s media. The tone is assertive, conspiratorial, and strongly colored by cultural conservatism.
For listeners new to Human Events, this episode showcases Jack Posobiec's blend of political analysis, media critique, and culture war activism — always “unfiltered” and skeptical of “mainstream” consensus.
