Human Events Daily host Jack Posobiec appeared on the Charlie Kirk Show on Monday following his detention at the World Economic Forum (WEF) event in Davos, Switzerland.
Posobiec says that he had shown police his passports and press badge an hour prior, and said that he was asked by authorities what Turning Point USA was, and why they were in Davos.
Posobiec told Kirk that authorities asked him to turn over video and tried to separate him from his crew, but he did not do so.
"Never once did they explain to us why we were targeted. I want to be clear on something, we had already given our name, our passport, and our press pass, about an hour prior," said Posobiec who then speculated that authorities had independently looked him and his team up after showing them their info.
"We have the First Amendment within the United States of America, however, I am not in the confines of the United States of America right here. So, these police have the ability if they want to, to confiscate things from us... confiscate our cards, start deleting things, and before we can even get legal involved, they could have taken down all of the footage that we've already filmed today for this project... this docuseries to go along with the book that's coming out that's called 'The Great Global Reset.'"
Unlike the experience @JackPosobiec had at #DAVOS, we spent a lot of time with reporters at #CPACHungary. @breeadail https://t.co/eKLNlhba56 pic.twitter.com/nktzlHc2NA

"We've been filming all day for this, we've been doing live vids, my own Human Events podcast, and the idea that they would come in, take down all of the stuff that we were doing, delete it, and the potential detain me even further. My wife wasn't with me, my brother wasn't with me, we didn't know where everybody was, I didn't even know when the next time I'd be able to get contact out, because again they do not have the First Amendment here, they do not have freedom of the press the same way we do in the United States, with that kind of latitude."
"Unfortunately where you are right now, the most dangerous thing where you are is the government," said Kirk in response, saying that the US wanted to put a similar system in place.
Posobiec signed off from his appearance by giving a direct message to WEF chairman Klaus Schwab, saying: "Mr. Schwab, we're not going anywhere."
