This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare. A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran. This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec. Christ is king. The nation's first ever ban on the sale of new gas-powered cars in California is now being blocked. Lower prices, better cars, and...

Federal appeals court temporarily blocked a judge's order requiring the Trump administration to return control of the California National Guard to Governor Newsom. Hundreds marching on downtown streets, denouncing immigration and customs enforcement operations that many at this protest worry will only intensify. Ice out of Chicago, ice out of Illinois, ice out of everywhere.

In an extraordinary evening and morning in the Middle East, the Israelis have taken on the Iranian nuclear program with a massive long-range strike campaign. It started with taking out the Iranian command and control facilities. In addition to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander, the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard is reportedly dead. The head of Iran's military, their chief of staff, was reportedly killed in targeted strikes.

as was much of the Iranian top nuclear scientist regime. Just moments before these strikes overnight, President Trump had taken to social media calling for a diplomatic resolution. He had warned Netanyahu that an attack like this would be inappropriate and said it would derail talks. The president this morning says he warned Iran a potential Israeli military strike on the country would be much worse than anything they know, anticipated or were told because Israel uses American military equipment and, quote, they know how to use it.

He adds, "There is still time to make this slaughter come to an end. Iran must make a deal before there's nothing left and save what was once known as the Iranian empire." Last night, the White House signaled it didn't support Israel's actions, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying Israel took unilateral action against Iran and that the U.S. is not involved in the strikes.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition, Human Events Daily. We're in Washington, D.C. Today is June 13th, 2025. And, oh, Dominique, guys, if you could throw that shot up, maybe just do a side-by-side right there. What you're looking at is a live view, Tel Aviv, Israel, because we're monitoring the situation above the skies. Ladies and gentlemen,

Welcome to the fourth turning. We told you this would come. We told you these days would come. We told you that the world was steering into turbulent times. And what do you do in turbulent times? We put America first. There is one thing that we do here. We do it every day. And we're not going to stop doing it. We put America first, and that means American interests first.

Now it's a big world and it's a messy world and there's always going to be things going on in all different corners and pockets of the planet. But our goal has always been from day one, 10 years ago Monday, to put America first and the interests of the American people first. I want to be clear about something. Their war is there. Our war is here.

What do I mean by that? Well, what I mean is, yes, I understand. This is warfare. This is open warfare. And there's going to be more of it coming. But our threats are not a world away. Our threats are in our own cities, which are occupied by an illegal invasion force. Our threats are crooked politicians who have taken the side of this illegal invasion force.

None of this changes any of that. None of this changes the situation on the ground in our cities. You must keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, as Rudyard Kipling once wrote. And so, folks, I say stay frosty and stay America first. That is our goal. That is our credo.

Nationalism, not globalism. America first and no one else first. It's as simple as that, folks. Some people seem to be getting twisted. Stay tuned. Be right back. And to understand what America first truly means. Welcome to the since Americans.

All right, folks, we're back here. Human Events Daily Live, Washington, D.C. The fourth turning has begun. We're also live on Real America's Voice, as well as Hour 3 on the Salem Radio Network. Charlie Kirk welcoming in Charlie's audience as well.

Give us your thoughts. We want to hear out there. We've got emails coming in all day and all night. Give us your thoughts on the situation. We know that there's a lot going on right now, but we want to hear from you. You're going to hear from us, but we want to hear from you as well. So 1776 at humanevents.com, 1776 at humanevents.com. What are your thoughts on that?

on where America should be? How should Trump respond? What are your thoughts on these latest strikes from Israel on Iran? We've got General Flynn coming up in one second, but first listen up because if you're still drinking that corporate watered down nonsense that passes for coffee folks, it's time for a serious wake up call. And I'm talking about blackout coffee. Blackout coffee isn't just coffee, it's a statement.

A declaration that you're done with weak beans and weak values. This is high-octane American roasted fuel for those who grind harder, stand taller, and never back down.

This is how you get me. I'm able to do whatever I do, stay up podcasting and live streaming with Charlie Kirk and the gang all the way past midnight last night, kept going, following the news until the wee hours, and then back at it this morning. How do I do that? It's with Blackout Coffee. They're not just playing games. They're cranking out more bags than ever, shipping faster than ever, and keeping you locked in with coffee that actually fires you up. Whether you're chasing big goals, crushing the daily grind, or just refusing to drink coffee made by people who hate you,

Blackout Coffee has your back, so stop settling. Go to blackoutcoffee.com slash poso and use promo code poso for 20% off your first order. Drink like a patriot. Drink Blackout. That's blackoutcoffee.com slash poso. Stop waiting and wake up. I want to bring now on the show General Michael Flynn. Everyone knows General Flynn. He needs no introduction. General Flynn, how are you? I'm doing good, Jack. Great to be on, and thanks for all that you do for this country.

All right. Back at you, sir. So, General, can you give us a sit rep on where things stand over the last 24 hours vis-a-vis Israel, Iran and the United States? Yeah. So just context, it looks like Iran was days away.

from having a nuclear weapon, the ability to be able to to marry up, match up, you know, the type of weapon systems, a ballistic missile with a nuclear propulsion capability and a nuclear bomb. So it looks like they were very, very close. And I and I have to say that the exquisite amount and use and application of intelligence that the Israelis have been able to demonstrate is extraordinary, as well as the

the strategic patience that they have had for many years, if not certainly in the last few months where they had to finally make a decision. So in terms of what is happening, you know, we've seen, you know, at the top of the show, you talked about, you know, the destruction of their command and control, the destruction of some of their surface-to-air missile capabilities, their electronic warfare capabilities, clearly the targeting of some of their senior leadership teams.

I understand that Khamenei is still in charge. He's still there, still alive. And they just named a new leader of the IRGC, so a guy by the name of Khamenei. So it'll be interesting to see how they reorganize internally inside of Iran. And that's going to have to be something that I know that the Israelis—

And the United States is going to have to pay very close attention to because if we're going to have any kind of discussions beyond the offensive operations that Israel is undertaking, you know, to try to achieve some sort of peace, you got to have somebody to talk to. The other thing that's happening within the region is the Houthis are now back engaged and they have been firing. You know, remember, I think we're plus eight there in terms of hours ahead of time. So we're probably sometime early morning hours now.

So the Houthis have been firing some ballistic missiles into Israel. There's been hundreds of drones launched.

There hasn't been, against Israel, there hasn't been a lot of activity by Hamas and Hezbollah yet. And Iran, I'm sorry, Israel will continue to prosecute their offensive operations, I believe, for the next couple of weeks. I don't think this is going to end tonight or tomorrow morning or the next day or two. I think that they are going to continue to prosecute until the full capacity of Iran's warfighting

Certainly their missile, their nuclear capability, and their manufacturing of military capabilities, their military industrial complex, if you will, is fully destroyed. And I mean raised to the ground. So Israel and the Israeli state run by Bibi Netanyahu and team, they're done with it. I do think that the American... Go ahead.

Oh, John Flynn, I just wanted to say we do have some breaking news. There are reports right now as we speak, and we've got this live shot up over Tel Aviv, Israel, reports of continuous sirens and red alerts up in Tel Aviv.

Missiles have been reportedly fired, as many as 150-plus, by Iran, making this their opening salvo of a potential retaliatory strike. Targets all over Israel right now. Responses of the launch of David Sling, Arrow interceptor missiles from Israel, reports

that Israel's missile defense and air defense are working in concert to shoot down those ballistic missiles. They've launched fighters as well. And so this will be getting really hot in Israel as we speak. It's evening there right now. So in the minutes as you and I are even speaking right now, this is going on.

Yeah, so a couple of other things. Regionally, so Turkey has put up its air support. I mean, so Turkey is now flying aircraft along their borders. Iraq is flying their own aircraft. Jordan has got their air forces up and operational in the sky. The Saudis have done the same thing. And I'm not certain if the Egyptians have put up any kind of air support. But those countries right now all have aircraft up.

principally to stop any stray missiles that the Iranians are firing. So you can see immediately, we can tell, you know, we can tell immediately, actually before they launch, that they're going to prepare to launch because there's a huge heat signature. The Israelis have the same capability. So we're looking at, you know, obviously a counterattack. But like I always say, you know, in warfare, action, reaction, counteraction,

The Israelis are now prosecuting a war on their time and at their speed. And they are, you know, they're running KC-135 air refueling tankers over the nation of Iran right now. That tells you everything you need to know about air defense capabilities.

This image, I just want people to know, this is the live, these are live images of missiles over Tel Aviv right now as we're watching in real time as these missiles are being launched, or these missiles are coming down and you're seeing the interceptors now raising up. General Flynn, can you describe what we're seeing here?

Yeah, so what is happening is they're going to, Iran is going to have to launch as many as they have available. And they're launching them a little bit blind. So they basically set a ballistic missile, you know, on a azimuth and they launch it. The targeting capabilities that they have are diminished, that Iran has are diminished. So they're just basically launching in the blind as many as they can, which is,

which is an interesting thing, an interesting tactic, but it's what they have left. In terms of Tel Aviv and other parts of Israel, which is a relatively small state geographically,

You know, the Israelis have extraordinary air defense capabilities, right? Their version of the Golden Dome, which is what Donald Trump is trying to put here in the United States. They also have a, you know, an excellent capability to defend themselves and to bunker themselves for these types of attacks.

So the Israeli military prowess and capability to be able to defend their homeland is extraordinary. Are they going to get every single one of them? No. Are they protected? Are the people of Israel? And I can tell you, two days ago, Bibi Netanyahu put out a warning to all the citizens of Israel to basically hunker down, be prepared for a long haul.

here and they they do all sorts of they take all sorts of measures the israeli people do to be able to protect themselves not just in an emergency to to run under a bunker but to actually protect themselves in different ways and and we don't need to get into all the details break

Yeah, go ahead, Jack. We have a quick break coming up, but folks, you are watching live here on Human Events Daily as Jack Posobiec, General Flynn, and for those on radio, I'll have to describe it to you, the images that we're seeing. We've got a quick break. General will hold you over because we're now seeing these live images of

uh the smoke rising ballistic missiles intercepted over tel aviv those missiles came very very close to striking targets within tel aviv we've got these live images up immediately human events daily will be right back jackson today you know they talk about influencers these are influencers and uh they're friends of mine

Jack Prasovic. Where's Jack? Jack? He's got a great job.

All right, Jack, we're back live, Human Events Daily. We're on with General Flynn. Guys, let's get that live feedback up Tel Aviv now. And we're seeing these, what are being reported as several impacts in Tel Aviv itself. I'm seeing a report, an initial report talking about that IDF's headquarters was targeted. We'll have to remain vigilant to see exactly what happened.

Jeremy Flynn, before the break, as we were watching this attack take place in real time, you were saying that there is a distinct possibility that because Iran launched so many ballistic missiles, that there was a chance that there would be some impacts that make it through Israel's missile defense shield.

Yeah, I mean, absolutely. I mean, the Iron Dome is created for certain capabilities. And what I understand is we're looking at 150 to 200 launches of some type of ballistic missile capability out of Iran toward Israel.

I also mentioned a number of other countries that have air capabilities up, air force capabilities up right now. I understand that the U.S. did launch a number of squadrons, at least one, possibly two squadrons off of Al Udeid in Qatar. So there's a lot of aircraft flying around right now, probably trying to make sure that they're protecting each other's national interests, whether it's Turkey, the U.S.,

uh the saudis jordanians of course israel looking at the potential for at least let's just say 150 some of those are going to get through as we're seeing live and i think that time frame is about plus seven plus eight hours so we're looking at probably you know i don't know what i'm guessing but probably won't you know after midnight uh

time right now. I cannot imagine the precision targeting that Iran has any longer based on what Israel targeted initially almost 48 hours ago now. So the Israelis knew that there was going to be this type of response. They knew it. They knew that they could not

you know, fully destroy these types of capabilities. They had to go after the initial command and control air defense and certainly start in on the nuclear capabilities like Natanz as an example, which is, I've seen some pictures of Natanz almost fully and completely destroyed. So one of the things that is coming out of our sources in Iran are

that the Iranian people are under their own cyber attack by their government. So there's going to be an electronic warfare war, electronic warfare war type war internal to the people of Iran because there has been a lot of video and a lot of updates, intelligence updates coming out of Iran. And now the Iranian government, what's remaining of the leadership,

is now counterattacking their own people with cyber attacks and cyber capabilities to be able to shut down. And General Flynn, if I could just jump in, for everyone who's listening on radio now and we're watching live, for folks who know, this is not B-roll. This is not stock footage or something. This is a live shot of Tel Aviv. You are seeing a massive plume of smoke that's covering the entire city.

skyline of Tel Aviv right now. Again, the report is that the Israeli Defense Ministry was the target. Even Israel Channel 13 reports that this was the target. Of course, we don't know exactly

What was struck or exactly how much of it was struck, the battle damage assessment will be continuing. But that is the report that at least one or a few of these missiles, and we understand this was a layered attack. Drones and ballistic missiles were used to try to overwhelm, as you said, General, the missile defense shield, the Iron Dome and other interceptors that Israel has. I've got about a minute to the break. General Flynn, do you expect this will be the only attack or will there be more tonight?

No, I expect that this is going to continue. This is going to continue, Jack, for a couple of weeks for your listeners on radio and live podcast. This is going to go on for a couple of weeks because Israel has made a final decision on destroying the full capacity of Iranian nuclear capability. So

So this back and forth is going to go on for a while. I don't believe that the Iranians have a capacity to keep this up at this level for very long, maybe another couple of days. So we'll see. We'll see what they have. It's clear, and I can tell you, the Israelis knew they planned this type of counterattack

They they where they're at right now is unknown, but they're certainly bunkered or hunkered down inside of of Israel. And they fully knew this. Netanyahu warned the people of Israel within the last 48 hours to hunker down and get ready for what what's coming. We know this again. The capacity of the Iranian military is being diminished by the hour by a very tremendous

strong Israeli capability. And I know that their intelligence on all of that inside of Iran is exquisite. All right, folks, quick break. We're going to be right back with General Flynn. We are covering this in real time. Iran has launched retaliatory strikes on Israel. Jack Posobiec, quick break. Hey, 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 who should be getting policies all right jack so we are back live human events daily we are here in washington dc but we're monitoring in real time these strikes on

on Tel Aviv, which we know have been conducted by Iran. Iran apparently naming this operation Operation Severe Punishment, the retaliation to Israel. Some reports now of a U.S.-guided missile destroyer is being

transiting to the East Med to provide additional ballistic missile defense for Israel as these ballistic missiles continue to rain down. And as we saw in the previous attack, and for folks who are watching on TV, you can see, and for those listening on radio, I'll describe this giant plume of smoke, which is lingering in the air over

the skyline of Tel Aviv right now in, it is nighttime obviously, in Israel. And the U.S. Navy repositioning that ballistic missile defense destroyer

to be able to provide that defense, defensive capability and addition. And this is coming as we saw that Israel's missile defense shield was overwhelmed, as General Flynn mentioned just moments ago, and allowing, we're hearing five to seven strikes may have made it in.

We're also hearing that new alarms are expected in Israel in the next several minutes due to reported detection of additional launches from Iran. The IDF also confirming that launch of a second wave of Iranian missiles against Israel. I want to bring in General Flynn here. So, General Flynn, we're seeing if—let's go—that report was—

Correct, that if they did indeed strike the Ministry of Defense of Israel, would it be that it seems like Iran is targeting the command and control structure of Israel in sort of retaliation for the loss of their military leaders last night?

Yeah, I mean, I think so. I mean, that's obvious, I believe, at this stage. Let me just talk to this guided missile destroyer that came into the Eastern Med. That's a U.S. destroyer. Yes, sir. Which will add significant capability to be able to observe the entire region. So when they fire any type of missile destroyer,

anywhere from Iran, Turkey, any, Yemen, that guided missile destroyer has a significant capability to be able to provide an umbrella coverage, right, so they can see things before they, before, as they're being launched and then on their routes into their targeted areas. So that's going to be a significant U.S. capability that will likely be providing

intelligence and air defense, some type of air defense coverage to Israel. That's a significant wartime capability in that guided missile destroyer. These missiles that got through, you know, the picture that we're looking at, Jack, in Tel Aviv, which is a pretty wide scope for your radio listeners,

you know, one missile getting through is terrible, but it's not as bad if you're talking about 150 to 200, and we're looking at maybe, you know, three to five got through. That says a lot for the Iron Dome capability and, frankly, for other capabilities that are postured forward, meaning in the air that are probably taking some of these missiles out en route. So very significant that the Israelis

are again displaying an incredible military prowess, not only from a defense of a strategic defensive posture, but also a strategic offensive posture in their continuation of the campaign to destroy the Iranian nuclear capability once and for all.

Once they made that decision to destroy the nuclear capability once and for all, there are other significant capabilities that the Israelis had to go after. Command and control, leadership, some of their intelligence collection platforms, their electronic warfare platforms, their entire surface-to-air missile capabilities. So those were the strategic capabilities.

systems that they had to go after. These ballistic missiles are more, they're strategic in nature, but they're regional and more tactical. So the Israelis, my guess is that the Israelis are going to conduct operations over the next couple of days to just

pound and destroy these ballistic missile capability sites where they reside. So Israel is actually on a very, to me, it's very clear their plan and what their plan is and how long this plan is going to play out. Like I said, Jack, earlier on the first- And General Flynn, what we're seeing now, we're seeing flashes in the sky over Tel Aviv,

As we can see, guys, we can put that on full screen here. So we're seeing missiles flash as they are intercepted. This is that second salvo that General Flynn told us would be coming here shortly, and it appears to have arrived. We're seeing that. We're also getting reports, nonstop sirens in Nazareth, eastern Haifa.

northern Israel at significant targets up there. They have a significant Navy base in Haifa for the Israeli Navy. So again, we're seeing some of this footage as missiles are raining down on Tel Aviv and in real time. So far, it seems there's another one right there. So there's another one as it's coming in. And then the question, of course, so General, if

As the missiles have gotten this far that we can even see them on the live stream, that means they've already penetrated several layers deep. Is that correct? Absolutely. They've probably penetrated three or four layers to include layers of capabilities, human capabilities on the ground in Iran that the Israelis are using to target some of these things before they're even launched.

One of the things I want your audience to know too, the Israelis are very smart, very sophisticated in what I would call combat dispersion or strategic dispersion of not only their military capabilities and forces, but also the population itself. The Israeli people know what sacrifice is. They know they have been defending their homeland for a long time. They know exactly how to disperse when they're warned to disperse.

And that dispersion has multiple layers too. So, you know, I hate to see these counterattacks, you know, they're expected, but I am confident, I'm very confident in the Israeli leadership's ability to be able to communicate, even under this duress that they're under, with their population to be able to protect them to the greatest degree that they can. So,

This campaign by Israel against Iran to destroy their nuclear capability, it's a long time in coming. I talked about it over 10 years ago. So it's a necessary thing. Go ahead, Jack. Oh, General Flynn, I'm just hearing now, I'm just getting in on the feed, that there have been explosions reported in the Golan Heights, so in northern Israel along the border with Sharia.

Syria, don't know yet whether or not those were impacts or interceptions, as we've been seeing here in Tel Aviv for the last couple of minutes. And so we're still monitoring it. Also hearing red alerts coming up in areas along the border with Jordan, as well as in southern Israel as well, Beersheba. So red alerts really just

And it seemed the initial salvo was targeted squarely on Tel Aviv, and that's the live stream we have up now for folks who are still watching. But now we're also hearing red alerts just all over Israel. And one report that popped in right now, again, a fog of war, take everything with a grain of salt as of right now. But hearing that the Israeli nuclear facility at Dimona is currently one of the targets of the current missile attack.

So one of the things that the Israelis will do, and they have the capability to do, is what's called beaconing. And that goes back to World War II, actually, this capability, but it's far more sophisticated now, where you can beacon a false area, right? And it causes the missile that's on a particular target, on a particular GPS target, to be

to go in a different direction or to hit a false target. So there's some very sophisticated things that are going on right now in Israel. Definitely, they're using a level of sophistication. We're seeing missiles being intercepted in real time over Tel Aviv.

Yeah. So anyway, Jack, I really think that, like I said, and for your audience radio and podcast, this is going to be going on for some time. The level of tension in the Middle East is beyond anything since probably the desert storm war when we had a massive, massive air campaign against Baghdad. There's another one. Yeah, this is a this is a very dangerous time.

The Israeli leadership clearly planned for this. They clearly planned for this. We'll see how many of these ballistic missiles they're able to get through, but I guarantee that you're going to see over the next decade

48 hours, 72 hours, through this weekend and probably into next week, you're going to see the Israelis conducting a series of devastating attacks on a daily basis against multiple facilities in Iran.

And folks who are watching or listening on radio, we are seeing right now in real time multiple missiles being intercepted, waiting to see if any come through. But over and over and over, these missiles are raining in the skies all over Tel Aviv. I'm seeing three at a time, four at a time. And it seems the Iron Dome is closed.

intercepting the ones at least we can see on the live feed here. You see those explosions as they light up the skies over Tel Aviv. Right now, this is happening in real time, ladies and gentlemen. These Iranian missiles raining down over... Was that hard to tell? But I may have seen one that just went through. But we're watching, we're monitoring this in real time. One of the things that I mentioned earlier, Jack, for your audience...

Inside of Iran, so where the Israeli people are in full support of their government, the Iranian people are not. And inside of Iran, as I speak here right now, there are cyber attacks going on against the Iranian people to basically destroy.

Disrupt, limit, stop, deny their ability to be able to get any kind of communications out of that country. They're doing it to their own people. This is the type of regime, this is the type of tyranny the Iranian people have lived under. The Iranian regime right now under Khomeini, I don't care who he puts in charge,

You know, he's probably at the top of the list of targets for the Israelis. But the Iranian people have to make a decision about whether or not they want to continue with this regime or not. And like I said, I've talked to, you know, a couple of times now over the last few days. Yeah. Will they rise up? Will they rise up? General Flynn, we've got to go to break. Where can people go to follow you for your sit reps and all of your breaking updates?

Yeah, they can go to at Jen Flynn, G-E-N, at Jen Flynn on X and go to General Flynn dot com. And they can see, you know, everything in terms of sub stack and stuff like that. So thanks, Jack. God bless everybody. Happy Father's Day. Thank you. And happy Father's Day to you as well, sir. General Flynn there. Live human events daily as Iran conducts their counterattack, their counter strikes on Israel.

All right, folks, Jack Posobiec back live.

Human events daily here, Washington, D.C., and we are covering in real time Iran's response, these counterstrikes on Israel as they take place. For those watching on TV, we have the images up from Tel Aviv. However, we're also hearing reports, and I mentioned earlier in the previous segment, that Iran

Haifa was being hit right now, and the images out of Haifa, we're working on getting them for you, are harrowing. You are seeing dozens of Iranian ballistic missiles arriving, many of them piercing through the layered defenses, the layered Israeli missile defense shield. And so there's a lot of questions about what's going on. Iran raining missiles down all across Syria.

Israel this evening. We're also hearing a third wave of missiles has been reported from Iran, 300-plus ballistic missiles launched and just harrowing scenes that are coming out. It is very hard to see exactly. Some of the apps are crashing. Some of the information is coming down, so it's hard to be able to tell exactly what is coming in.

All major Israeli population centers are now on red alert because of this ongoing counterstrike from Iran on Israel, which is taking place in real time. Of course, I'm

I'm taking this and getting all of this in real time as well, just trying to see. So we're hearing sirens up in Haifa, Nazareth, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Beersheba, and missiles that have been arriving around Israel.

The clock in real time, as we're seeing here live on Human Events Daily. Joel, only got a couple of minutes left until the end of the show. We're going to break for more live coverage. But folks, tomorrow, of course, we know is Friday.

The parade, the Army parade here in Washington, D.C., which Human Events and Real America's Voice will be covering in full, along with Steve Bannon. And there on the scene for a quick preview behind the scenes is our crack field correspondent all the way from Poland and Ireland. Well, now he's on the National Mall. Ladies and gentlemen, we've got Kevin Posobiec on the National Mall. Kevin, can you tell us what you're seeing down there?

Well, first I want to say prayers up for the Middle East, and it is quite a swampy day down here on the National Mall. And I'm seeing all kinds of great military equipment behind me you would think would be...

tank, but it's actually M109 self-propelled howitzer. And I believe it's 155 millimeter cannon on this glorious machine. And yeah, I'm down here, Jack. It's reminiscent of the old Willow Grove Air Force shows that you and I used to go to as kids when dad used to bring us. And it's great to see there's many people taking field trips and tours. It's very family friendly. And

And yeah, we're looking forward to all the activities tomorrow. I'm about a hundred yards from the main stage behind me over my shoulder. Here's 82nd airborne with a ground howitzer as well. And multiple, multiple helicopters as well on the national mall. And yeah, it's just great to be here. You know, I had the nickname tank back in grade school and as a running back, but you know, it's yeah,

And Kevin, I was told that MSNBC told me that Washington hated this parade, that they didn't want to have it, that they didn't want to do all this. So where are all the protests? People seem to just be walking by and families and tourists seem to be having a very nice day there.

Well, as you recall, there's always a day crew and a night crew. So I'll be here later tonight as well. We'll see if anything becomes of that. And certainly tomorrow with the No Kings protest scheduled around the city, but certainly nothing posted on the...

town here. And yeah, I don't know. Maybe we'll have to ask Joy Reid about what she wants to do. We'll have to ask Joy Reid. Exactly. Well, Kevin, I wanted to show you something. I've got a little, since it is the Army's birthday, and even though I'm a Navy guy, I wanted to show you that I have a little special, special gift.

prop, I guess, for the show here today, for the U.S. Army, I've got right here the World War II military cap of Private First Class John Posobiec I. Kevin, this is our grandfather's World War II dress greens. This is dress uniform. This is the hat that our grandfather wore when he was fighting in World War II.

We got it right here. So happy birthday, 250th, to the U.S. Army. And I may have joined the Navy, but we are the proud grandsons of a soldier who fought under General Patton. Incredible work, Kevin. I'll be joining you down there later tonight as well as going into tomorrow.

All right, folks. So we're saying prayers up for the Middle East. I'm seeing some of this imagery coming out of Tel Aviv now. We're seeing the strikes on the ground, civilian areas, residential areas, all of this going on, Real America's Voice. Coverage will continue as Iranian counter-strike on Israel has begun. Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to play a show. ♪♪

Bye.
