On this week's episode, we're joined by Chris Carr, Executive Editor at The Epoch Times, to talk about the latest poll that shows a majority of Americans think Joe Biden is not competent, the recall of Gov. Gavin Newsom, and more.
00:01:27.000Um, the FDA has approved the Pfizer vaccine.
00:01:29.000There's a lot to talk about there, because as much as for a lot of people they're probably excited to hear, there's, you know, they were waiting for FDA approval.
00:01:37.000It just, it means we're gonna see a lot more vaccine mandates, which I think absolutely cross the line, and this is where things start getting creepy and weird.
00:01:45.000Recall Gavin Newsom and Larry Elder, who has been smeared as the black face of white supremacy because, of course, as you know, we live in a Dave Chappelle sketch, so this should be fun.
00:01:56.000So joining us today is Chris Carr, executive editor for TimCast.com.
00:03:15.000Production's been ramping up and we just, we got the music equipment for the new studio and the latest vlog, Ian jamming out, people are, people are, I love it.
00:03:22.000I can hear it when I do, when we do a jam night, the next day my voice is like, fried.
00:03:28.000But we're trying really hard to get these live events ready to go, so we might just have to just try and duct tape some kind of live event together, because we've been- We can do it now?
00:03:36.000Yeah, we'll talk about it afterwards, because we've been trying to do it for months, and we've been jammed up with red tape and lack of duct tape, so maybe we just make it happen.
00:03:45.000Right, we moved a bunch of instruments into the green room.
00:03:47.000So we had a bunch in the garage, kind of out with the 3D printer equipment, but it was really a lot of stuff in a little room, so it was hard to jam out there and get really humid.
00:03:54.000So last night we moved everything down to the studio, you know, the green room, and it was really... It's a nice chill spot, so we could have like 20 or 30 people chilling down there and listening.
00:04:03.000That's always been the plan, is like mix it up, but there's bureaucratic stuff holding us up, so I think we just gotta figure it out.
00:04:20.000But my friends, before we get into all of that news, we have an amazing sponsor.
00:04:25.000We have Biotrust's Keto Elevate C8 MCT oil powder.
00:04:29.000Now, accidentally, I find myself doing the keto diet.
00:04:33.000It's just because we did this crab day thing where we bought a bunch of crab, which is all like protein, and we bought a bunch of meat and cheese to make like a charcuterie thing.
00:04:40.000And so that was all I ended up eating.
00:04:42.000And whipped cream and fruits and stuff.
00:04:43.000And then I just find myself feeling better.

00:06:35.000And you will also get an ad-free experience and support our amazing team of journalists and our expansion to hire more and more journalists.
00:07:10.000Well, you know what it is, is that people live in the media.
00:07:13.000So when the media is saying Biden's great, everyone's like, okay.
00:07:16.000And now that he's botching Afghanistan and the media is criticizing him, now the people who don't pay attention are all of a sudden shocked to realize, but he's doing bad?
00:07:24.000And isn't it funny how these polls track with the mainstream media narrative?
00:07:27.000They say, according to a new poll from CDS, 51% believe that Biden is not a competent commander in chief.
00:07:38.000I'd like to meet at least one of these 49%.
00:07:41.000Who are these people that believe, after everything we've seen?
00:07:44.000The pollsters also found that 52% of likely voters do not feel the president has been focused.
00:07:49.000I just, I just, who is this 48% that has heard the man speak and heard the word true in a non-Shabbat oppression and decided that that was focused?
00:09:03.000It's like, you know, we hear from these YouTubers, like, you don't even gotta think, you just go to the website and it's all done for you.
00:09:08.000Here's where it gets, here's where, well, this is interesting.
00:09:11.000The CBS poll was conducted as Afghanistan fell to the Taliban, and 53% disagreed with the way that the troops were withdrawn.
00:09:18.00070% said the removal of troops could have been handled better, along with 55% who said some troops could have stayed, according to Breitbart News.
00:09:26.000Now, the sad part is, we'll go to the bottom, there's a couple things here.
00:09:29.000Rasmussen found that 55% of voters believe Harris is not qualified to assume the duties of the presidency, including 47% who said she is not qualified at all.
00:09:51.000Civics shows Joe Biden's job approval by state.
00:09:55.000In almost every single state, Joe Biden is underwater with disapproval.
00:09:59.000It is California, Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Hawaii, Oregon, Illinois, Rhode Island, Maryland, Massachusetts, Vermont, and Washington that have a positive view of Joe Biden.
00:10:59.000Or if it was just Biden was so is such a poor military commander.
00:11:04.000He's the commander in chief of the US Armed Forces.
00:11:06.000He's such a poor military commander that he just didn't understand tactics like you leave air support in while you move people out on the ground.
00:11:14.000It could have been a three month process moving people out.
00:11:28.000I got like a pang of fear thinking what if this stupid Chinese boogeyman, the CCP, but like if there was some sort of like coordinated invasion right now with Biden at the helm.
00:11:38.000If he really doesn't, isn't a good commander, and then we have to fight a war, we lose because the commander misappropriates the first days are the most, you know, vulnerable moments in a war.
00:11:53.000People that were saying that Afghanistan is revealed, the emperor has no clothes.
00:11:59.000And you know what's crazy to me is this realization because I've actually, even though I know Joe Biden's kind of like, you know, not all with it, I still felt like, you know, people say like, oh, who's Biden's handler?
00:12:43.000I think that Biden did have people picking up the slack for him, and I'm afraid that the people who were doing that for Joe were people like Mark Milley.
00:12:50.000People who were focused on things like white rage, instead of what it would have been like to pull out properly.
00:12:55.000I think Mark Milley is an example of the fact that Biden's just sleeping in his... They probably walk in the Oval Office, he's like... And then Mark Milley's like, yes.
00:13:06.000No one's going to fire me now because Biden's asleep.
00:13:48.000I guess I made the point, right, people were following the media, but only now these independent voters are like, hmm, maybe this, you know, 79, 78-year-old, he's gonna be 79 soon, 78-year-old guy who can't talk well, there's something wrong with him.
00:14:07.000Was it Afghanistan, or was it just like, this was the final thing, the latest thing, that's really just made people kind of see what's happening?
00:14:13.000This is what's scary about it, is that it's whatever CNN tells them.
00:14:36.000The funny thing is he hasn't lost in the civics poll shows Biden hasn't lost a single percentage point from Democrats since the fall of Kabul till today.
00:14:45.000Like I just, it's, it's, it's, it's a cult.
00:14:49.000I wish I could say it surprised me, honestly, but it doesn't.
00:15:48.000That's really unfortunate about Sam Harris.
00:15:49.000I really think that he's one of the public intellectuals who got broken in some sense during the lockdown.
00:15:54.000I think something like it triggered in his brain and he hasn't recovered in some sense.
00:15:58.000Because used to I would be able to listen to him and I would hear coherent thoughts even when I disagreed, but lately he's just been on some sort of bandwagon that doesn't even follow up with a lot of the stuff he used to claim.
00:16:11.000I got a story about that, actually, and this is, it really hit home with me because, like, my best friend of 15 years, we've been best friends for a really long time, and I sent him a text message, and I was like, did you see the key to NYC situation?
00:16:24.000Yeah, and, well, he's a Chicago guy, you know, blue pill all the way, Lori Lightfoot supporter, you know, still, still, still, and So I told him about the Key to NYC program.
00:18:48.000But there's no... I guess these people don't understand that they're not in the actual tribe of elitism.
00:18:57.000Those that run the systems and are locking everything down will throw them into the gutter at a moment's notice.
00:19:02.000So they're just standing there gloating, saying, haha, I'm in the winning team, and I'm like, I don't care who's... leave me alone.
00:19:07.000You can go like I feel like I'm watching a hockey game and they're like just playing really aggressive and I'm not playing the game and I'm like just get away from me and they're trying to throw me into the rink to play and I'm like no.
00:19:18.000They just and now they're throwing stuff at the stands and I'm like why you're throwing stuff at me like I got nothing to do with your game.
00:19:23.000Would you fight to protect people that hated you?
00:19:34.000Like, if you're destined to be a villain, even if you protect the people?
00:19:38.000If there was, like, some d- If there was, like, an Antifa guy, and he was, like, yelling and cussing at me, and then, like, you know, he was, like, walking away and a car was speeding at him full speed, I'd probably try and save him.
00:20:02.000But if there was, like, someone who was like, I hate you, you're dumb, and then I saw a car coming, I'd be like, look out, and I'd try and save him.
00:20:08.000So there's a difference between being violent towards you and hating you, I suppose.
00:20:10.000That's where there's some nuance there.
00:20:11.000Yeah, if they're, like, throwing rocks at me, I'd just be like, nah, I'm not going anywhere near that guy.
00:20:21.000Also, I wonder if you're preserving low-intelligence humans that just eat and reproduce and eat and reproduce and then starve out the system, if you're actually doing a disservice to the species.
00:20:55.000Because when we had Alex Jones here, I asked him that question on the show.
00:21:00.000What if all of this stuff about the end and overpopulation is true, and we as humans are just yeast in a bottle, consuming all the resources and farting ourselves to death?
00:21:12.000And Alex said, he's like, I ask myself that question all the time, but How do you answer it?
00:21:19.000The problem is, you know, I can't remember exactly what he said, but he was like, you know, you got to defend freedom and liberty.
00:21:27.000No individual person is going to be smart enough to steer the ship properly, and we can rely on human nature, which has always found solutions through ingenuity and invention.
00:21:35.000Or we can just hand it off to some despot authoritarian who we know through history has always oppressed, murdered, and punished.
00:22:56.000I understand not wanting to get screwed on your loan, so you charge, you know, a little bit of interest, but to try and get rich off of Extracting value from the system without contributing anything to that system.
00:23:06.000So I always complain about people who, or I should say I complain about how the government's printing a lot of money, giving it to people so they're able to buy stuff, take food and resources from the system without putting anything in.
00:23:16.000And that creates a trade imbalance, a production imbalance, which eventually causes collapse.
00:23:22.000But we see that with a lot of people in financial jobs.
00:23:26.000They make bets, they extract from the system, they don't do anything.
00:23:31.000I want to stay on what you asked, Ian, because let's just take a few minutes and get philosophical real quick before we jump over to the California stuff.
00:23:48.000You have to build a system that allows for that behavior without, so that solves the problem with taking into account the unchangeable human problem, which is that we're wild animal consumers, destructors.
00:24:03.000So you build a system where it's okay to be destructive and consumers, like you need massive expansion capability.
00:24:10.000You need unlimited access or relatively unlimited access to resources like food.
00:24:40.000You know, engineering, scientific research and development, not handing over the reins of government to crackpot despots, people like in the Democratic Party and the neocons, formerly of the Republican Party, because they'll just burn it down.
00:24:56.000And if you come out independently and say, I want to burn it down, then the system seeks you out as like a danger and will incarcerate or destroy you, I've found, too.
00:25:06.000So there's either you join them and then give up.
00:25:09.000And that's you lose or you try and you just give up on your own and then you lose because you look like you're messing with their version of how to destroy the situation or how to, you know, you can't be you can't be the famous one doing it.
00:25:21.000That's too dangerous for the power structure.
00:25:23.000So they'll I think the only the only way is to is to help the people is to give them a chance.
00:25:29.000Yeah, I think we got to rely on development.
00:25:32.000You're talking about helping people, like people that are in need.
00:25:34.000Like people that can't help themselves, like that aren't critical thinkers, that are draining on the system, having seven kids.
00:25:42.000It's kind of like just a fictitious idea of people in my head.
00:25:46.000But I don't think the seven kids is the issue.
00:25:48.000I think it's that I know tons of people who sit around doing literally nothing.
00:25:52.000Like, they go out, they eat, they party, and they go home, and they don't do anything, and their jobs are, like, menial.
00:25:58.000And I have no issue with their life choices and the life they live and what they choose to live, because I'm not going to sit here and decide what is or isn't more important in anyone's life, right?
00:26:06.000Like, oh, you relaxing and doing garbage work is, well, that's how they choose to live their life.
00:26:12.000But certainly there's a mathematical equation that at a certain point you're like, we have 50 billion people on the planet that's about to implode or something like that, you know what I mean?
00:27:01.000If you have supreme power over people, then you truly can relax and not have to work.
00:27:07.000I don't think that you can ever actually really relax and not have to work though.
00:27:10.000I mean, you might have that perception, you might think that's possible, but ultimately you're gonna find that you have a purposeless life.
00:27:16.000And once you sense that, either consciously or unconsciously, you're gonna start to act out and probably lash out at people around you.
00:27:24.000But what about, there's so many, I guess, actually yeah, I guess you're right.
00:27:28.000Maybe the issue is this, there's a lot of people with purposeless lives, and we've talked about this before, and that's why you're seeing the rise of wokeness.
00:27:34.000People in power with purposeless lives, that's interesting.
00:27:37.000Well, I mean, this goes back to an anecdote from Jordan Peterson when he was working with somebody in his clinical practice and he was just like, well, what do you want to do with your life?
00:27:50.000I mean, like, I mean, it sounds so great in theory, but in practice it does not work out, not just for the person themselves, but for the people that surround them, you know, their family, their friends or acquaintances, you know, it spins out of control at some point.
00:28:00.000This is the craziest thing about the anti-work subreddit.
00:28:50.000Yeah, work is a scientific, I'm looking up the actual scientific definition of it right now, but I believe it's just the transition of energy into power.
00:28:58.000The production of power through, what is it, in joules?
00:29:01.000You can measure work in joules, I believe?
00:29:03.000So like, what I'm saying is, this is work.
00:29:05.000I'm producing work to move this back and forth.
00:29:08.000The question is, do you enjoy the work you're doing?
00:29:10.000You can sit still and you're still working.
00:29:13.000So if you like what you're doing, it doesn't feel exhausting.
00:29:17.000Work doesn't have to be negative and exhausting.
00:31:28.000Yeah, you might be able to pull it off with solar panels.
00:31:31.000Well, if your phone's charged, you can still talk to people, but the question I'm saying is, we don't make stuff anymore.
00:31:38.000If people are working remote, the service economy is gonna get hit massive- that's gonna be massive.
00:31:42.000Like, if we're working remotely, we don't need to go to local cafes anymore.
00:31:46.000So everybody goes to one office building, and then for lunch they all go down to the little restaurants downstairs.
00:31:51.000But if we're all working remote, you're eating at home.
00:31:54.000So this is actually one of the contributors to the food shortages that we've been seeing, is that with the lockdowns and people not working, they were cooking more.
00:32:01.000So they were buying base ingredients from supermarkets, and the shelves were depleted.
00:32:05.000And so then there was a big surge in orders, but people also weren't working anymore, so that means nobody was making the stuff.
00:32:11.000But anyway, so it's a big contributing factor when people aren't leaving.
00:32:15.000So all these restaurants, one by one, are going to start falling.
00:32:18.000I think people don't realize that it's falling apart to the extent that it is.
00:32:24.000I think like these regular people who for some reason think Biden's competent, man, they're holding on.
00:32:54.000I've never been in a war, but sometimes I put my head in, in the, in the, my mind in the place of someone that isn't being invaded, like a farmer.
00:33:36.000And you know, it's funny because we got a bunch of super chats from people and they were like, get ammo now, Biden just banned Russian imports.
00:33:42.000And I look at my phone and it's Luke and he's like, get ammo now.
00:33:46.000I'm like, Luke, when you getting here?
00:33:51.000Ladies and gentlemen, I give you our Okay, who was the guy who wrote the story about the clown comes out from behind the stage and tries to warn the audience there's a fire?
00:34:37.000And the clown gets frustrated and tries desperately to tell them, but the more energetic he gets to warn about the fire that's actually burning on the theater, the more they laugh!
00:34:45.000And then he says, Kierkegaard says, I imagine that's how the world will end.
00:34:49.000I forgot exactly what he said, but the people are gonna be laughing, not realizing what's going on around them.
00:34:56.000Okay, look, Larry Elder might win this one.
00:35:03.000And they're pulling out every stop imaginable to try and block Larry Elder from winning in California.
00:35:10.000Now, here's what you need to understand.
00:35:12.000Gavin Newsom will get recalled if people vote to recall.
00:35:17.000If they don't vote for- Here's my- I could be wrong about this, but my understanding is, if you walk in and say, recall, and walk out, he gets recalled.
00:35:25.000You don't need necessarily to vote for someone to replace him.
00:35:58.000So, but at the same time, I mean, yeah, the lockdown was crazy.
00:36:01.000I mean, it was, it was total, and it was complete, and everybody had to wear a mask.
00:36:04.000I mean, I'll never forget the first time I encountered one of my friends on the sidewalk, and she goes, the CDC said we can take our masks off!
00:36:10.000It was the first time I'd seen her without a mask on!
00:36:18.000When there's, you know, it's 72 degrees every day, and you can enjoy, you know, the air and everything?
00:36:23.000So, I mean, but yeah, that's the mentality out there.
00:36:25.000But based on you living under him, you think recall, yeah?
00:36:29.000I talked to some political strategists that not only have been working California politics for decades, but they are actually actively working with some of the people that are hoping to replace Newsom as governor.
00:36:56.000There's just, but this is back when there was just a bunch of like, you know, kind of half recognizable clown names, you know, that were throwing their hat.
00:37:02.000There was one guy that was going around California with a bear.
00:37:15.000The bear was like, you know, licking itself while he's trying to give a speech.
00:37:20.000When you see stuff like that, you're just like, okay.
00:37:24.000But the political strategist that I talked to would say things like, no, no, you have to understand that Gavin Newsom—and they spoke off the record, of course, they didn't want me to print what they said—they said, Newsom is such a ruthless, conniving politician that he is absolutely not going to let anybody take over for him as governor.
00:37:40.000Larry Elder's changing that, and you can see that he's changing that by the total derangement that you're seeing on the LA Times.
00:38:09.000Sometimes I feel like the clown running out on the stage and going, And everyone's just laughing.
00:38:15.000I wonder about that, because I try and have levity in my life and be kind of a jokester and not take things too seriously, but I wonder if a result of that is that people aren't going to take me seriously when I'm screaming about the fall, the danger that we're looking at.
00:38:36.000Let me let me let me read a little bit read a little bit of this
00:38:39.000They say the LA Times published a column on Friday titled Larry Elder is the black face of white supremacy
00:38:44.000You've been warned Oh heaven which accuses the Republican of using overly
00:38:49.000simplistic Arguments that whitewash the complex problems that come
00:38:52.000along with being black in America LA Times columnist Erica D
00:38:56.000Smith said Elder uses taunting and toddler like name-calling of his ideological enemies before
00:39:02.000Belittling the gubernatorial candidate with her own insults.
00:39:06.000Ha quote. I've learned that it's often best just to ignore people like Elder
00:39:10.000People who are, as my dad used to say, skinfolk, but not kinfolk, she wrote before attempting to insult Elder as a Trump fanboy, dangerous, a troll, and implied he doesn't understand critical race theory.
00:39:22.000His candidacy feels personal, like an insult to blackness, the Times columnist wrote.
00:39:28.000Fox News host Sean Hannity called the column disgusting and invited Elder to respond to it directly.
00:39:33.000Quote, I am genuinely, friend to friend, sorry that you have to go through something as evil, horrific, and racist as that, Kennedy said.
00:39:38.000However, Elder, who leads the pack of Republican candidates looking to replace California Governor Gavin Newsom, wasn't surprised.
00:39:45.000Quote, I anticipated that would happen.
00:39:48.000This is why a lot of people don't go into politics, because of the politics of personal destruction.
00:39:53.000This is not the first time the LA Times has attacked me.
00:39:56.000There was another writer who all but called me a black David Duke.
00:41:39.000The reporter keeps trying to ask him, like, logical questions about all the problems that he's caused, and he just, he's cackling, and he cuts off the first question from the reporter, I believe, and he just, like, starts naming, like, numbers and stuff.
00:42:38.000FiveThirtyEight founder Nate Silver said Monday, the strategy California Democrats are pursuing heading into next month's gubernatorial recall election is self-destructive, as sitting governor Gavin Newsom faces the possibility that he could be voted out of office.
00:42:49.000The Democratic Party is encouraging Californians to vote against removing Newsom from office, but to refrain from selecting amongst the 46 replacement candidates who appear on the recall ballot.
00:42:59.000Okay, so there got to be some Democrats.
00:43:02.000Newsom's campaign has made similar recommendations in recent weeks.
00:43:05.000On Monday, Silver responded to a tweet posted by a political reporter who suggested the strategy was self-interested.
00:43:10.000It's self-destructive more than self-interested.
00:43:16.000Democrats could potentially keep the seat if they urged their voters to consolidate behind an alternative Democrat, but instead, they're telling them not to vote on the replacement.
00:43:26.000Dude, Larry Elder for governor is gonna be so amazing.
00:43:32.000Because you've heard like what he's gonna do when, he keeps saying when he becomes governor, is that he's just gonna issue all these executive orders to like just basically cancel out a lot of these Democrat policies that have gone through these super majorities, unchecked, that have basically bankrupted the whole state, caused so much homelessness, People can't afford to live, you know?
00:43:49.000I mean, and he's just gonna put a stop to all those policies in day one, according to him, you know?
00:44:11.000The tendrils of the corruption run deep.
00:44:14.000And we have a medium-sized animal trap next to our chicken coop, because we have a fox that lurks around, and we don't want him to get in the chickens, right?
00:44:48.000But, you know, is he going to be able to effectively weed?
00:44:51.000Another metaphor is like, if you get black mold toxicity, if you breathe it in, what happens is the mold goes into your system, then it diffuses evenly throughout your entire system.
00:45:00.000So you just have small particles of mold in your entire system.
00:45:02.000It's really hard to clean out, similar to how politics can corrupt and influence a society.
00:45:08.000It's not just something we can pull out.
00:45:10.000It's permeated the entire system and needs to be purged slowly.
00:45:15.000I want to make sure I understand that.
00:45:17.000Are you calling Larry Elder the Black Mold of White Supremacy?
00:45:20.000Yes, the Black Mold of White Supremacy.
00:45:23.000No, you're saying the corruption is infecting your body and you can't get it out.
00:45:27.000The corruption is the Black Mold of White Supremacy.
00:45:30.000That is good too, because if it spreads around your house, You could scrub the room where you see it, but not realize there's tiny particles already moved somewhere else that grow again.
00:50:25.000He's very big on, instead of pointing at something like systemic racism for problems in the black community, he'll point out the fact that, you know, a large portion of the black community doesn't have fathers in the home, you know.
00:50:36.000So he has some traditional conservative values, but at least they're sane, you know.
00:50:40.000I mean, he's not out there, you know, saying latinxs, like...
00:50:44.000like drunk doctor seuss you know i mean he actually says things that that are grounded and are
00:50:50.000reasonable even if you disagree with them you know but no i larry elder would make a really
00:50:55.000interesting addition to the california government i i think aside from that um getting a change in
00:51:01.000california Yes, just just for once it's like You know, I'll put it this way California is like if someone took it, you know kept using a toilet without flushing and it's just a mess and Larry Elder will will be the flush.
00:51:19.000I mean like he's gonna be the person to come in and button and then just take his foot up and then pull the lever down and finally just He might find he's the guy that needs the shovel and needs to shovel all the poop out so that there's enough room for it to flush.
00:51:59.000They don't want to... Gavin Newsom's like... He was probably singing in his office, and they were like, OK, Gavin, look, this recall's a big deal.
00:52:05.000There's a lot of people who want to vote you out.
00:52:07.000We need to do something to show the public you're there for them.
00:52:46.000But think about it, it's like, you know, there are people who work hard every day, construction and labor and, you know, medical professionals.
00:53:09.000And that's got a lot of problems, too, still.
00:53:11.000Not as bad as, like, San Francisco with the homelessness and the poop patrols and stuff.
00:53:15.000uh no i mean it's it's still got problems i mean homelessness is a serious problem i mean i'll i'll never forget i was standing on my patio uh this is probably six months ago and when they were releasing prisoners from the prisoner you know and i saw two police cars pull up they released a prisoner he signed his papers at the bus stop then we locked eyes and i went back inside wow like yeah that's because of the covet stuff yeah i'm assuming I mean, maybe it was just like a standard drop-off, but it was at the same time that I was hearing, oh, we're still releasing prisoners, you know, in droves.
00:53:48.000This is crazy to see this LaTinx system.
00:53:52.000No, because I'm like, I gotta be honest, like I was talking about when we were mentioning this with Joe Biden, that even though I know Joe Biden isn't with it, like it's fairly obvious, I still believe there was some control.
00:54:05.000You know, I'm like, oh, Joe Biden's out of it, but the system is working, right?
00:54:09.000It's maybe in a weakened state, but it's still there.
00:54:12.000Now with Afghanistan, I'm just like, there is no system.
00:55:41.000That's exactly what I was going to say.
00:55:42.000I mean, because he analyzes the situation pretty thoroughly.
00:55:46.000Not too long ago, he was talking about how, you know, we're looking at a very strong possibility in 2024 where it's Kamala Harris versus Donald Trump.
00:55:54.000And he's like, if this plays out, it's a very interesting opportunity for a third-party candidate.
00:56:20.000Yeah, let's use the, but I think if we, the more we talk about it, like it has compounding effects, we can definitely help manifest.
00:56:27.000I think, uh, man, it's tough because Trump's, I don't think Trump, man, Trump's tough because his character defects are an issue, but his policy, you know, what he wanted to do was pretty good.
00:57:17.0002024, if we get maybe a third party option, I might consider it.
00:57:22.000Well, the thing that worries me about Trump, though, is that we saw... It's not just like he was the plumber that was swearing up and down and was able to actually fix the problem.
00:57:30.000People like... The machine got in his way and prevented him from fixing the problem, you know?
00:57:36.000So, I mean, isn't that just gonna happen again?
00:57:38.000Is it gonna be, you know, Russiagate 2.0?
00:57:40.000And I mean, how strong is this machine that's going to prevent him from actually instigating these policies that he wants to do?
00:57:46.000Yeah, that's why I've been saying, like, DeSantis is probably better than Trump.
00:57:49.000Because Trump is one of the most polarizing candidates we've ever had.
00:57:53.000And DeSantis will get smeared, like they're doing to Larry Elder, but they're not going to be able to smear him nearly as much as they did with Trump.
00:57:59.000Because Trump had prominent personality and clips, and people ate it up.
00:58:05.000DeSantis doesn't have the history of Donald Trump speaking or anything like this.
00:58:09.000They're probably already working on it.
00:58:10.000You know they're doing op-ed research like crazy right now.
00:58:13.000Now, the thing about Dave Smith, because, you know, we had him on last Friday and we're big fans.
00:58:57.000They would be sitting there, their heads would start spinning, and then just like, it would be like the final scene in Kingsman while their heads blow up.
01:00:22.000If you give them power, they will use it, they will misappropriate it.
01:00:25.000Even if you find one, like, all these moderate Democrats who are like, we're gonna get back to kitchen table issues, vote for me, and then people said, okay, and they're like, here Pelosi, here's, here's, here's power.
01:00:52.000Yeah, the Libertarian Party of Texas tweeted, you can't be pro-freedom and anti-immigration, and I'm like, that just doesn't even mean anything.
01:01:36.000And I feel like most people who are starting to pay attention to politics are like, can we just have, like, a guy to, you know, do some maintenance on the machine?
01:01:44.000You know, someone in government is going to be like, well, we'll get everything going.
01:01:47.000The other thing too is, we're always writing up new laws.
01:01:50.000We're always complaining about things.
01:01:52.000Have we ever stopped to consider that, like, it's pretty, going pretty, pretty well.
01:01:55.000Let's, you know, let's, let's take a breather.
01:01:57.000How about for once, we just kind of like, have a seat?
01:02:50.000They play a clip of my they play a clip of him on TV coughing and sneezing on an elevator and they're like He just won't do the right thing and I'm like It'd be fair if you're sick and then you get on elevators are coughing and sneezing out covering your mouth It's kind of a dick move.
01:03:04.000Yeah, but like to issue a warrant for his arrest and Now they're saying they have to put signs on your, you have to put a sign on your door.
01:03:10.000If you're suspected of having COVID suspected of having COVID, they force you to lock down and quarantine your house.
01:03:16.000And they put a sign on your door saying, do not come in, leave packages at the door.
01:03:58.000New York judges order defendants to get COVID-19 shots as part of plea deals and bail agreements, but is it even legal?
01:04:05.000A New York judge ordered a defendant to get the COVID-19 vaccine as part of his plea deal, while another made it part of a drug dealing suspect's bail terms.
01:04:12.000Manhattan judge Jed Rakoff granted the release of a woman accused of drug dealing on the condition she get vaccinated.
01:04:18.000Another order came from Bronx judge Jeffrey Zimmerman, who made vaccination part of a plea deal.
01:04:59.000Now, same as it's always been, you can go talk to your healthcare professional that you know and trust and figure out what makes sense for you and don't ask me for medical advice.
01:05:06.000But to tell all of the companies to start mandating this, we are going to see a purge of sick people.
01:05:14.000Someone brought this up to me earlier.
01:05:16.000They said, have you considered that with New York mandating the vaccine with no medical exceptions, and now for teachers as well, and this push from big companies, they're going to take all of the people with medical conditions that are still able to work and make them unable to work, and now they'll be stuck on government benefits.
01:05:34.000Once again, just decimating the economy.
01:05:39.000What do you think is behind these mandates?
01:05:41.000I mean, really, because are we to believe that, you know, Joe Biden saying that private companies have to do this and judges saying that people have to do this on conditions of their parole?
01:05:49.000Are we to believe that this is the result of a genuine concern for public health?
01:07:29.000And if people didn't stand up in enough numbers to actually make that change, then you did it.
01:07:37.000You made your attempt and now it's time to go.
01:07:39.000I mean, I suppose you can try and stay, but my point is like, if there's a bunch of people yelling like, hey, we're going to win if we all stick together.
01:07:46.000And then when it comes down to it, not enough people stick together.
01:07:52.000Well, there was that one restauranteur in New York, I think he had a bakery, and he said that he's not gonna, you know, he put this big poster in his window saying, we don't discriminate based on gender, sex, anything, vaccinated, unvaccinated, and they put that poster up right after De Blasio, right after De Blasio announced.
01:08:12.000And they thought that they would have, like a lot of other restaurants, fall in line with them, you know, and say the
01:09:48.000But I don't know enough about Australia or Australian history to understand why that place is the one that's actually doing the full-on Nazi lockdown.
01:10:03.000They gave up all their guns a little while ago.
01:10:05.000And not that I think people would go out and actually fight with their government.
01:10:09.000The left tries to use it as an argument because they always want to jump to the most extreme.
01:10:14.000If I say, hey, you know one of the first things Nazis did was target disabled people, making it harder for them to live, discriminating against them.
01:10:21.000Then people will go, yeah, but the Nazis also did most extreme thing ever.
01:11:14.000Because you are legally allowed to defend yourself.
01:11:16.000Breonna Taylor's boyfriend, when the police broke the door down, and they fired at him, he fired back and hit a cop.
01:11:22.000I think he fired first, and hit him in the leg.
01:11:24.000They tried charging him with it, and he ultimately won, and there was no charges in the end, because he was legally allowed to defend himself from someone breaking his door down.
01:11:33.000In Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the UK, we got these videos of cops walking in, breaking the door down, and just coming in and beating people and dragging them out.
01:11:42.000We don't see that in the United States because the police are concerned the citizen is probably armed.
01:11:49.000It's not that the citizen is going to get in a gunfight.
01:12:18.000So by allowing the government to take their guns, the government just innately realized, oh, well, now what's the next step?
01:12:26.000Because it's, it's, like you said, it's not necessarily that they were going to, you know, use their guns and arm in the streets and, you know.
01:13:13.000I think for some people, seizing guns is on purpose.
01:13:16.000But I watched this old, like, gun debate thing with Rosie O'Donnell and Tom Selleck, and I've watched a bunch of other arguments about the 90s assault weapons ban and stuff like that.
01:14:15.000That's kind of the route I'm going in my life right now.
01:14:18.000Get better at singing, get better at thinking, get better at typing.
01:14:22.000The vaccine minutes they're doing say that you have to have, for like, you know, the military is doing it now too, you have to have, you know, your vaccines have to be up to date.
01:14:33.000So I was, actually this is really, really funny, somebody, I tweeted Vaxxer ID is racist.
01:15:42.000Yeah, I see the nastiness component, but at the same time I also see just kind of, they feel some sort of bizarre warmth and ignorance, you know?
01:15:50.000They need things to be like third grade level, you know?
01:15:53.000The people that I talk to that just don't really see what's happening or they perceive it in some way that I just don't understand, they just want to tune in to CNN for 20 minutes, have their 20 minutes, and then have their talking points and be done with it.
01:16:06.000They need it to be very simple, very easy, and then they can get on with their lives and shout down people that disagree with them.
01:16:13.000I think we're addicted to convenience.
01:16:15.000I think the fake news is very much a form of convenience and almost a form of comfort to some of these people, which is really turning out to be quite the problem because they're believing everything they tell them.
01:16:23.000So if they do change the rhetoric and be like, oh, Joe Biden did this thing wrong, they're just going to believe that hook, line, and sinker too.
01:16:30.000So they're clearly not like progressively, progressively thinking through this.
01:16:33.000What I was hoping when I started to see this was that they were starting to see that hiring
01:16:38.000someone based on the color of their skin like they did with Kamal was a terrible idea.
01:16:42.000And voting for someone like Biden against Trump, terrible idea.
01:16:46.000But no, it's just because they're blindly following along the media.
01:17:01.000A lot of it is perception, like the way that you see someone else's text is not necessarily the way they intended it to be seen.
01:17:11.000And so you get people that are angry, they type something down out of rage, which is never going to totally, you know, translate what they're feeling.
01:17:19.000And then someone else reads it and has their own feelings that they put on top of that.
01:17:39.000But I still think, you know, I get it, but you're missing the main point.
01:17:43.000Like, why are people that I know posting the meanest, craziest things on Facebook in general?
01:17:52.000Like, people who used to be normal, people I know from Chicago, all of a sudden are posting things on Facebook saying like, F these stupid MFers.
01:18:00.000I hope they all die and burn and suffer.
01:18:07.000Like, there's one viral tweet where someone's like, I've seen a whole bunch of pro-vax people celebrating the deaths of people who wouldn't get vaccinated from COVID and wishing their death, but I've never seen the anti-vax people wishing the same for those who are pro-vaccine.
01:18:19.000Like, what happened to these people, man?
01:18:23.000It's like they're infected with some kind of rage.
01:18:28.000They're addicted to rage and anger and being mean people.
01:18:33.000Someone with a, perhaps a bit of a spiritual or religious outlook would say that there's some sort of possession that's happening.
01:18:38.000Because people are, I mean people are really, a lot of them, I know exactly the kind of people you're talking about and they're not themselves.
01:19:46.000It's like, um, residual from Trump come in and be like, the far leftists, all these Jerks and Hillary's like basket of deplorables and then Biden comes in and he like arrests all these people on one six and what he should be doing is letting those people go and Commuting their sentences or their their crimes like John Hancock did with Shays rebellion when the farmers revolted before they signed the declaration He realized they did it out of desperation.
01:20:13.000They didn't do it because they were evil people So he pardoned a bunch of them Biden should pardon those people if he wants social cohesion right now But as long as there's this, he said, she said, they're villains, he's an enemy, we're gonna see it in the populace.
01:20:27.000Yeah, but dude, there is an objective reality here.
01:20:31.000In Portland, a bunch of right-wing groups wanted to have a Summer of Love event.
01:20:36.000And sure, you can argue they know what's gonna happen if they have an event in Portland, but they're allowed to put on a rally where they talk and say things.
01:20:43.000Antifa showed up and started throwing gas and attacking people.
01:20:46.000And then a bunch of Proud Boys reacted and started fighting back.
01:20:49.000And then the media blames the far right.
01:20:52.000Certainly, I think the far, you know, the right-wing groups that are down there don't understand that they're being baited.
01:20:58.000But it's like, what am I supposed to say?
01:21:01.000Right-wing group is allowed to have a rally.
01:21:03.000They're allowed to stand up on their truck with a big sign saying, summer of love and the hate.
01:21:08.000And that's okay, if you don't like it, you know, walk away.
01:21:11.000Antifa has no right to show up and throw bricks at people, and beat them, and crash, you know, try and ram them with cars.
01:21:16.000There was a shootout, and I think the guy who got arrested was an Antifa guy, I don't know for sure, but he looks more like an Antifa guy who was shooting.
01:22:00.000Yeah, I don't know what's left and right and conservative and liberal.
01:22:03.000Like we look at crypto economics and being conservative would be to maintain the current
01:22:09.000system of fiscality, you know, economics.
01:22:12.000But we see that it's a broken system that's on a runaway train to demise.
01:22:17.000So it's actually conservative to change that system to a more conservative financial system.
01:22:24.000So whereas you would think it's liberal to tear down the economic order and install a new system, it's actually very conservative to do that because the system is dangerous.
01:22:41.000I'll tell you what's funny. And a centrist. When I was watching, I was watching one of Hassan's
01:22:45.000video because we talked about Hassan Piker buying that big house. And he was talking about, he said
01:22:49.000a lot of things about Afghanistan that are identical to exactly what I said, that it's a
01:22:53.000shame it's going down this way. It's good that we're getting out. And then he said, but it's
01:22:58.000literally Trump's fault. This is, you know, this is Trump's plan. Trump negotiated this. And my
01:23:02.000take was, and it's literally Biden's fault. Biden changed the plan. Biden, you know, failed, like,
01:23:08.000pulled our trips out of Bagram Air Force Base in the middle of the night. And I'm like, if someone,
01:23:14.000someone super chatted this to us, if we had, you know, Jack Posobiec or Jack Murphy or Steve Bannon
01:23:21.000sitting down with like Vosh or Hassan, they'd probably agree on most things and then disagree
01:23:27.000on cultural issues and culture war issues.
01:23:30.000And so it's like, I guess I'm just pointing out.
01:23:35.000There's a tribal need, in my opinion, to blame Donald Trump for everything.
01:23:40.000And so my criticism of Assad in this regard, and many on the left, is it's literally not Trump's fault if you actually follow what's happened.
01:23:48.000But it's easy to say Trump negotiated the withdrawal, therefore he bears responsibility for how this went down, but Joe Biden is literally the president, and he changed the terms of the deal.
01:24:05.000I was born in Ohio and Cleveland Browns for life.
01:24:08.000Cleveland Browns fan, because that's my hometown.
01:24:11.000And when the quarterback would screw up, a Cleveland Browns quarterback, throw a few incompletions, throw an interception, the fans would turn on the guy and be like, this guy sucks.
01:24:49.000If I was sitting there with you, Ian, at a Cleveland Browns game and the quarterback was 78 and he was going, and you were like, don't, don't rag on him, man.
01:24:58.000I'll be like, bro, come on, dude, what are you talking about?
01:26:42.000Maybe we get some video of her firing a pistol.
01:26:44.000Could you imagine a President Kamala, like already she's laughing at the question about Americans trapped in Afghanistan.
01:26:52.000But could you imagine her like sitting down with like Vladimir Putin and he's like, if you do not withdraw your troops from Libya, we'll fire a nuke.
01:27:28.000You gotta watch out for the propaganda.
01:27:30.000There's a bunch of propaganda coming out saying like, you know, America, don't do this.
01:27:34.000There's a, like I saw one story, it said a famous Afghan TikToker was captured and executed by the Taliban.
01:27:41.000And it seems like a lot of these stories are preying upon Western sensibilities to make Americans be like, we have to go back in and save them all.
01:28:15.000Like, I don't mean, I don't mean do colonization.
01:28:17.000I'm like, what do you do about the fact that you've got international elites and you've got massive corporate interests in getting oil pipelines out of Afghanistan and they're going to fund the politicians and the system will flow in that direction?
01:28:32.000Probably change the economics situation.
01:28:35.000I think, you know, remove the fiat currency from diminish its value.
01:28:40.000Seems like it's happening automatically.
01:28:41.000How do we get the left to be on board with like ending the Fed or about or auditing it or something?
01:29:49.000It's tough to say, because, like, you know, this is something James Lindsay talks about all the time, when he's, like, you know, going through his, like, he's analyzing Herbert Marcuse's work about, you know, the Marxist professor Herbert Marcuse, who's kind of, in a sense, an architect of the woke stuff, is that the asymmetry is the whole point.
01:30:06.000There's not really a reasonable debate to have with some people that are kind of infected with the woke ideology.
01:31:13.000Well, that's the other thing you see coming through in our current society with Marcuse and his ideas, as he was saying, that it's a pretty interesting argument that he makes.
01:31:20.000He says, you know, if we had just pre-censored Hitler and just said, let's not let him speak, then we wouldn't have had the Holocaust, now would we?
01:31:39.000And the people on the left try to bring up saying, like, you know, like, see, even, you know, even they went after him.
01:31:46.000And then the counter is, yes, and it didn't do anything.
01:31:50.000Because when you push things into the corner, they just fester in darkness.
01:31:53.000And if people are actively paying attention to these ideas, then they understand them and they can reject them.
01:32:01.000But you let these ideas grow in the darkness and then it's all of a sudden you're like standing up and like, whoa, where did all this come from?
01:32:07.000Well, that's what we're seeing now is that there's that bad idea that the idea of pre-censorship is happening again with big tech platforms.
01:32:13.000They're saying, let's just not let these ideas out there and it's backfiring.
01:32:19.000But, uh, I have to say, I don't want to leave this, uh, before we go to super chats on a, on a sad note, I want to point out that woman who called, uh, uh, young Latinos latinxs and just remind you all that these people have no idea how to communicate with young people.
01:34:48.000Dude I want to see in F10 like Vin Diesel like raids you know the super soldier compound And he gets injected and then he becomes, he gets superpowers, you know, and then Ludacris is just, he can fly for some reason.
01:35:04.000I think that's the only way you can heighten it from here, from space.
01:37:17.000When you free up the blood flow in your lower core, it helps, you know, free up the blood flow in your genitals, I found, which can help you have babies.
01:38:15.000It's expensive, but it is I I they had a really expensive one.
01:38:20.000It was like four grand because it was some exotic African wood or whatever and I'm lying.
01:38:23.000We're not trying to you know, do like we want something that sounds really really good so we can make music and it's hard to justify an expense this high even for the one that did get.
01:38:32.000But for the live performances, I think this thing is absolutely... The sound is incredible.
01:38:39.000It gives you an acoustic sound or an electric sound when you can just change... Yeah, it's brilliant.
01:39:25.000And it's like, it's actually creamy, I'm like, I've never had it.
01:39:26.000Oh, maybe I'll try that in the coffee.
01:39:27.000Yeah, we went to the liquor store, because we're building the new studio, and so we wanted to get, like, good booze for guests and for celebrations.
01:39:35.000Like, we're not gonna dish out really expensive stuff for just literally no reason and just waste money or anything like that.
01:39:40.000So I got corn whiskey, which was like 10 bucks.
01:41:52.000According to Rachel Maddow, the Afghanistan fiasco is all because of Trump's immigration laws that hindered the Afghan people from coming to the U.S.
01:44:52.000I think because it was frozen, it would, it would become a little watery.
01:44:55.000So I didn't get the full Lou Malnati's experience.
01:44:58.000I will tell you this, when we order Giordano's here, we order deep dish, because I'm like, hey, I'm from Chicago, I'm gonna make people try it and see what they like better.
01:45:04.000When you cook the Lou Malnati's, it comes out with water on top, and I literally lift it and drain the water off of it.
01:45:11.000It's not bad though, it's like tomato juice, it's just watery, and I have no problem with it, I think it tastes better.
01:50:30.000Jared Lifeguard says, Ian, what would you think would happen if we mastered fusion energy and magnetic transportation?
01:50:37.000What would the masses do with that technology?
01:50:39.000All the Timcast viewers have to find the time to read Atlas Shrugged.
01:50:42.000You could transport food across long distances really fast by launching it into orbit and then catching it as it comes back down with a magnetic, like, counter-pull.
01:50:54.000So shipping, it could accelerate shipping.
01:50:56.000You could also, people could take trains from place to place, and you could have little villages all over the place, as opposed to centralizing it in cities.
01:51:04.000So that would help the spreading out issue, I think.
01:51:07.000Connor H says, how many ears does Jean-Luc Picard have?
01:51:53.000Purposeful Porpoise says, Yo Tim, prepare yourself for the Stargate episode, where the general looks straight into the camera and basically admits that the show is a cover for a real Stargate program.
01:53:02.000Yeah, this is like a Mayan Native American thing, is that Stargates are real.
01:53:05.000They would have these areas that were carved out that they would stand in, and when they were inside of them, their minds would transcend the universal superstructure, so it seemed, and they would communicate with aliens and see other realities.
01:53:48.000And Dave, like, he posts the video, he's proud of it, you know, of, like, being the kind of guy who's gonna hear something and then change his mind.
01:53:53.000Yeah, it was, like, from five years ago?
01:54:30.000I've, uh, so there's like three episodes that come on per day.
01:54:34.000So I'm in like season nine or something right now, but I've skipped half the episodes in between because I certainly can't watch three episodes a day.
01:54:41.000So it's like, you know, it's hard to keep track.
01:54:44.000You just skip through and look for ones you like the premise of?
01:56:10.000It was like a big, a big investigative piece on it.
01:56:14.000Look, I don't I'm not not saying I'm a big fan of the FDA and like revolving door policies of like the head of this pharmaceutical company gets a job in the government or anything like that.
01:56:22.000But I think the opioid one is, like, telling people, like, to take a medication that turned out to be extremely addictive and problematic.
01:59:58.000So it's just, I look at a lot of the altcoins as like stock.
02:00:02.000You know, it's not necessarily, there's like utility tokens and stuff, but Bitcoin is decentralized crypto.
02:00:06.000Everything else is kind of, well Monero and stuff, I guess.
02:00:09.000But a lot of these altcoins are like stock.
02:00:12.000Mr. Laxative says, what's the ETA in the Timcast app?
02:00:14.000Oh man, probably months, I have no idea.
02:00:17.000Uh, we're working on it, you know, um, so that people can use, listen to the episodes and everything.
02:00:22.000We needed to start, we, man, so, we need to start uploading audio versions of the Members Only stuff so people don't have to use a lot of bandwidth and, you know, make it easier.
02:00:31.000I will say though, the Brave browser, Has the ability to play a video and then, uh, sleep your phone, turn the screen off, and still listen.
02:00:41.000So apparently that people were saying that's a solution if you want to listen to the episodes without, you know, your phone being on the whole time.
02:01:24.000He worked with the KGB and came out in the 90s and told America, like, the communist motive is a long 80-year plan, 20-year plan where they will go in and seed your culture and transform the culture from Sorta says Tim, Americans can make whatever medical choices they want.
02:02:44.000Just because one idiot wants to smoke a cigarette in the back of a room and destroy the entire restaurant's atmosphere.
02:02:48.000You mean because your boss says it's okay and they're allowed to do it, and you're like, I'll keep working here.
02:02:53.000Yeah, the boss is like an unhealthy smoker and doesn't care, but all the employees are getting sick because people are smoking in the restaurant.
02:03:00.000There's no obligation to the employees or the employer between each other.
02:03:03.000It's a contractual... It's an agreement.
02:03:05.000Well, the manager... I mean, you might be right that it's more of an owner...
02:03:08.000If you are like, I would like to work at this bar, but oh no, people are smoking, maybe you shouldn't work there.
02:03:14.000To be like, well, I'm going to unilaterally decide no one's allowed to smoke anymore.
02:06:23.000It was just one that Tim and I had knocked around harmonies on for a while, but I hadn't thought to put it in the top three that we would do first.
