Jack Posobiec tells Fox & Friends the urban right must rise up against Marxism after massive viral success with TPUSA in NYC
“Freedom is going to fight. That’s what Charlie Kirk stood for.”
“Freedom is going to fight. That’s what Charlie Kirk stood for.”

Human Events Daily host Jack Posobiec appeared on Fox & Friends Sunday morning to discuss the viral “Freedom” t-shirt distribution at Madison Square Garden and the response he saw from UFC fans ahead of Saturday night’s fight card. Posobiec said the goal was to bring something positive at a time when political violence and national tension have been rising.
“There's been so much negativity in the last couple of months with violence, not just what happened to Charlie, but I think violence in our whole country. There's been upheaval. And we tried to come out there last night to do something that would highlight something positive, something good to show that there's still goodness in the world, to show that there's still, there's still a chance for redemption, even in many cases," Posobiec said.

One of the hosts asked Posobiec why he chose New York City—now led by a newly elected socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani—for an event focused on patriotism and conservative activism.
“Talk to me about the fact that you chose to come to one of, if not the most progressive liberal left cities in the country, just elected a socialist mayor. And yet you came in here," Posobiec was asked.
“Well, look, here's what it is, right? We're either going to [get freedom] or we're going to get Marxism."

View on X"Charlie talked about that a lot. He talked about [freedom] and New York City at the same time," he responded. "Look, there's the Freedom Tower here. There's obviously the 9/11 history. And we came in because we said, freedom is not going to go away.

View on X"Freedom is going to fight. That's what Charlie Kirk stood for. New York City is America's most iconic city. And I say this as a Philly guy, that it is the greatest city in America. It just is, right? Sorry. Sorry, dad. But great history, great history. Talk about freedom, talk about America, but freedom is going to fight.”
During the event outside Madison Square Garden, a man who had been speaking with Posobiec suddenly collapsed from what appeared to be a seizure or overdose. Posobiec carried him down the steps and checked his pulse until first responders arrived.
