Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Antifa Far Leftists TORCH 15 Cops Cars As Cops PURGE Pro Hamas Camps w-Matt Kibbe

00:00:00.000 Yesterday, of course, was May Day.

00:00:20.000 That is a leftist holiday.

00:00:22.000 And with all the protests going on across these universities across the country, of course, we were expecting to see some violence.

00:00:28.000 Now, the police have been tearing down many of these camps.

00:00:31.000 They tore down the UCLA camp.

00:00:33.000 They were seen on camera firing beanbags into the crowd, though many people reported rubber bullets.

00:00:37.000 I'm pretty sure they were beanbags.

00:00:39.000 You can take a look at the weapons they were using.

00:00:40.000 They looked like the less lethal shotguns.

00:00:43.000 But we got news from the Postmillennial.

00:00:45.000 Fifteen Portland police vehicles were Now they say it's suspected arson in their headline and I'm going to give you my opinion.

00:00:53.000 I don't think the cars spontaneously combusted at night.

00:00:56.000 I'm assuming someone set them on fire on a leftist protest day where leftists were smashing up buildings in the downtown area.

00:01:03.000 So we're going to go ahead and make the assumption Antifa torched these police vehicles.

00:01:06.000 There you go.

00:01:07.000 The police in Portland were tearing down the Portland camps and we have a rather humorous video of the children playing cops and robbers with half We've got a bunch of other news.

00:01:16.000 garbage cans, running into trying to, I guess, tackle a cop and then getting arrested. Because these kids are playing

00:01:22.000 games. They're playing revolutionary and empire. It's a silly game. We'll talk about that. We got a bunch of other

00:01:28.000 news, a big story that's been going around is the question of

00:01:30.000 whether the Daily Wire they've been accused of gagging Candace Owens, so she cannot speak about any disparage the company.

00:01:38.000 And that actually inhibits her ability to debate Ben Shapiro.

00:01:42.000 And so many people are saying the Daily Wire is acting disingenuously, but we can break that down.

00:01:47.000 And then, of course, in the Donald Trump corruption, I should say the corrupt Donald Trump trial, where they've got no statutory basis in law, Trump is being held in contempt again.

00:01:57.000 The judge has not issued his ruling.

00:01:58.000 They're saying he violated the gag order for a fourth time.

00:02:01.000 But guess what?

00:02:01.000 It's got to the point where even CNN defended Trump after they were forced to bring up insults from Michael Cohen.

00:02:09.000 And they said, you know, they read it on air.

00:02:12.000 And Jake Tapper was like, I apologize in advance for saying these things.

00:02:16.000 And then said, which we will mention on the show, but we'll wait a little bit, what Michael Cohen called Trump.

00:02:21.000 And then Dana Bash said this gives Trump credibility that Cohen is attacking him and he needs to respond.

00:02:27.000 He's targeting his presidential campaign.

00:02:29.000 So we'll talk about all of that.

00:02:31.000 Before we do, head over to casprew.com and buy coffee!

00:02:36.000 We got great coffee here.

00:02:37.000 We got Appalachian Nights, of course.

00:05:30.000 That's Scanner News.

00:05:31.000 Follow all of our work at TimCastNews on Instagram, Twitter.

00:05:34.000 They're an amazing team.

00:05:35.000 I'm grateful to be a part of it.

00:05:36.000 Hi, Serge!

00:05:37.000 Yo!

00:05:39.000 My voice just cracked like I was going through puberty.

00:05:42.000 Here's the first story for the Postmillennial.

00:05:45.000 15 Portland police vehicles torched in suspected arson attack.

00:05:50.000 The suspected arson attack came after Antifa destroyed businesses downtown for Mayday.

00:05:54.000 I love you, Postmillennial.

00:05:57.000 And I understand why you said suspected, but I'm just gonna go ahead and say I don't think the vehicle spontaneously combusted, and I don't think someone accidentally tripped and fell and dropped their kerosene and lighter onto 15 vehicles all in the same night.

00:06:11.000 I think it's fair to say it's arson, and I think it's fair to say, you know, they put in the subtitle, That it came on a day when Antifa destroyed businesses downtown.

00:06:22.000 It also came on a day when the police are raiding their encampment and arresting people at Portland University.

00:06:28.000 So I would just like to say, in my humble opinion, Antifa and far leftists torched a bunch of police vehicles yesterday.

00:06:37.000 You know what the challenging thing with this is?

00:06:41.000 We've been covering this stuff for so long that I feel like it is... You ever drink a Coke or something and then try and eat ice cream right afterwards and it tastes like there's no sweetness to it because you've desensitized?

00:06:55.000 That's what it's like.

00:06:56.000 It's like we've covered so much anti-vote violence, it's like, oh, only 15.

00:07:00.000 I mean, I think this could be potentially global warming because global warming is responsible for so much.

00:07:05.000 It's impossible to tell what it's up to next.

00:07:07.000 No, I think you're right.

00:07:08.000 I can understand why Post Millennial is doing this.

00:07:09.000 If you haven't, you know, arrest and convict someone, you have to say alleged and be careful of the language.

00:07:13.000 But probably, probably the rioters who were involved in the Antifa also burned the car.

00:07:20.000 These were revolutionary communists, they are terrorists, and I endorse the state stomping the... like, just stomping the hell out of them.

00:07:30.000 Find them, throw them in jail because they are trying to destroy the country.

00:07:35.000 They could kill people!

00:07:36.000 Yeah!

00:07:36.000 I mean, that's crazy, dude.

00:07:38.000 They openly say that they're revolutionary.

00:07:41.000 They say they want to overthrow the United States.

00:07:44.000 This is what they say.

00:07:46.000 Give them the smoke they are begging for!

00:07:50.000 Give them the smoke.

00:07:52.000 That is, of course, it's called CS smoke.

00:07:54.000 Do you know what CS stands for?

00:07:56.000 A genuine question, because I want to look that up.

00:07:57.000 I don't.

00:07:58.000 In Ferguson, when they fired the tear gas, it's called CS smoke.

00:08:03.000 And so CNN said, they're not using tear gas.

00:08:06.000 In fact, it's just smoke.

00:08:07.000 And meanwhile, everyone's going, ah, like wise.

00:08:09.000 Yes, because they don't call it tear gas.

00:08:11.000 And the other thing too, I learned is that pepper spray is apparently also tear gas.

00:08:16.000 Yeah, it's just a different, powdered.

00:08:18.000 The CS stands for it's a very long word meaning chemicals, and as I am not Ian the scientist, I cannot read it to you.

00:08:26.000 Really?

00:08:26.000 That's what the internet is trying to tell me right now.

00:08:29.000 Because they have canisters that say CS smoke.

00:08:32.000 CS gas.

00:08:33.000 Oh, I see.

00:08:34.000 Chlorobenzylmalony.

00:08:39.000 Yeah, see why I avoided it?

00:08:41.000 Really?

00:08:41.000 I think that means not good for your eyes.

00:08:43.000 Yeah, so they just call it CS gas.

00:08:45.000 It's its Latin name.

00:08:46.000 Chlorobenzol malonitrile.

00:08:53.000 I can understand why the police call it CS gas now.

00:08:55.000 Tim, I think you're being too kind to Post Millennial because they buried the lead here.

00:09:00.000 The real story is that there's still 15 cars in Portland to burn.

00:09:04.000 Oh, right.

00:09:05.000 Because I've been to Portland recently and it's... How are they doing?

00:09:09.000 It's kind of a festering hellhole.

00:09:10.000 Really?

00:09:11.000 Yeah.

00:09:12.000 I went there.

00:09:12.000 The last time I was there was years ago.

00:09:14.000 It was funny.

00:09:15.000 There was some video.

00:09:17.000 I can't remember why people are posting it, but it was a video of, like, Proud Boys marching.

00:09:22.000 And they claimed this old video was a video of something else.

00:09:24.000 And I was like, I know that's fake news because I was at that march.

00:09:27.000 I know where that is.

00:09:28.000 They were in Portland.

00:09:30.000 And it was crazy because I was there a few days in advance, and so I'm walking around, I'm going to the store, I think I like bought a phone or something, I needed like an upgrade, and there are signs that they take posters saying this person is a Nazi, and it's pictures of like random people, and I'm like, I don't know what this is, but they were everywhere!

00:09:48.000 They just put up these posters of people, and now, over the past several years, we've seen all the news that the downtown area is basically gone, Nobody wants to have a business there.

00:09:57.000 It's like a zombie apocalypse now and all the businesses finally gave up and people are now working from home.

00:10:03.000 So there's no people during the day, which means there's no restaurants.

00:10:06.000 There's no nightlife and it's just they killed it.

00:10:09.000 They're collapsing the economy there.

00:10:11.000 I remember listening to this interview NBR did with local business owners, probably on, you know, the downtown area of, I know it was in Portland, and they were saying, well, we don't necessarily believe in the things they believe in, but we will put the signs up so they know that we're friendly to their causes, and basically in hopes of being left alone, and it never worked.

00:10:28.000 Never works.

00:10:29.000 These people that are, you know, Trying to fight the cops and trying to, you know, attack the cops and stuff like that.

00:10:35.000 These are the same people that shot that MAGA dude.

00:10:39.000 Like, they're of the exact same political bent, right?

00:10:43.000 They're the same people that would smash in a building Uh, you know, smashing someone's property because they, you know, they didn't have the right sticker in the window or whatever.

00:10:55.000 These are the same people that will stop emergency services from getting through their protest while people are having heart attacks or dying.

00:11:05.000 This is, they're all revolutionary communists.

00:11:07.000 They specifically say they want to take down the United States.

00:11:12.000 Give them the fight they're looking for.

00:11:14.000 Let the government send the police in and fight and go get them.

00:11:19.000 I'm seeing all these people on social media being like, the free speech warriors are not so for free speech anymore.

00:11:24.000 And I'm like, oh, the communists are crying.

00:11:26.000 These far leftists are smashing up people's businesses, putting people's lives in danger, and then they get mad when the police comes in and gives them exactly what they ask for.

00:11:37.000 They say the ends justify the means.

00:11:39.000 That's what these people believe.

00:11:40.000 And I'm like, so this is what they're saying.

00:11:42.000 They think they're justified in smashing things up, burning vehicles, and they've killed people.

00:11:48.000 Because in the end, it'll be justified.

00:11:51.000 Yeah, in the end they will create government doing just this.

00:11:54.000 So when they demand government based on violent force, I say the police should go in and respond in kind under the law, which the law allows, to stop violent criminals because they're saying, They're saying they want government of force.

00:12:11.000 Okay, well, we can oblige.

00:12:13.000 The police can go in and stop you from using this force, countering your force with theirs.

00:12:17.000 And then we can all clap and say, congratulations, you've got what you've asked for.

00:12:20.000 Speech is speech.

00:12:22.000 Violence is violence.

00:12:23.000 There's a pretty bright line there.

00:12:25.000 And violence should never be tolerated.

00:12:26.000 I have a friend that lives in San Francisco.

00:12:28.000 She's very successful.

00:12:30.000 She refuses to leave Haight-Ashbury because she believes that the Marxists that run the government absolutely want to run away.

00:12:39.000 Anybody who's successful, anybody that could actually keep the city, restore the city, make it worth living there

00:12:46.000 again.

00:12:46.000 And she won't do it. She's not leaving because she thinks that's exactly what they want.

00:12:51.000 It looks to me like Portland's, the thugs have won that fight.

00:12:56.000 Take a look at this tweet from Andy No.

00:12:58.000 He says, at the May Day Antifa riot downtown Portland, the extremists in the Black Bloc marched

00:13:03.000 from the Portland State Library encampment where they threw mortar explosives

00:13:07.000 and smashed up businesses and property.

00:13:10.000 Portland police made no arrest.

00:13:11.000 The attack was pre-announced on social media.

00:13:13.000 Take a look at this.

00:13:14.000 Mayday scavenger hunt.

00:13:16.000 Here's a list of business orgs who profit off the settler colony of Israel that we'll pass on the march.

00:13:23.000 Keep your eyes out and take whatever autonomous action feels good.

00:13:26.000 And they label these businesses.

00:13:28.000 They literally just threw Israel's name in there as an excuse to go and smash up these corporations.

00:13:34.000 And if these were private businesses owned by a person, I would endorse the person getting out there and defending their business.

00:13:42.000 And no one who's going on this scavenger hunt, so to speak, is actually going to verify any of this.

00:13:46.000 They're going to read this piece of paper and be like, haha, cool.

00:13:49.000 It's sort of illogical, but it does speak to the control this movement has over the masses, that it's brought together.

00:13:57.000 They are willing to Create an ideological incentive for them to do chaos and the people are not willing to say, hey, I'm an independent thinker and this is why I don't think I'm going to do that.

00:14:07.000 They're a tiny minority that intimidate the normal people that want to live normal lives that go to work.

00:14:15.000 Every day, that do the things that keep society together and keep society going, and they do this because they know that they don't have anything to lose, because they have no lives, they don't have jobs, they don't have to go to work, they're not the normal people.

00:14:31.000 So they go and they make a stink, and they scare the crap out of the normal people, so the normal people are afraid to do anything about it.

00:14:39.000 Idle hands, devil's playground.

00:14:40.000 But I also wonder, you ever see that meme where it was, I don't know if it was like a guy telling a story in some post, he said that he rented an apartment and then one day he heard a gunshot and he got worried and, you know, he went out to his backyard or whatever and looked around and he saw his neighbor holding a gun and his neighbor said, don't worry, that was me, just fired into the ground.

00:15:00.000 I do this every once in a while to keep the property taxes down.

00:15:03.000 Something like that?

00:15:04.000 Insane.

00:15:05.000 Yeah, I wonder if what's actually happening is it would be actually a hilarious story that there's a conspiracy of wealthy, like generationally wealthy white liberals who live in Portland who want to buy up as much property as possible, so every night they dress up like Antifa and claim, oh Israel, oh geez!

00:15:25.000 Then they cause all this damage, everybody leaves, they sink the property value, they buy it up, and then three years, They stopped doing it, you know what I mean?

00:15:32.000 Ryan Long had a comedy bit about this Antifa glass repair.

00:15:35.000 And he's like, by night we are Antifa, by day we repair windows.

00:15:40.000 And then they get a call like, oh wow, oh I can't believe that happened.

00:15:42.000 Yeah, we'll be right there with the new window for you.

00:15:44.000 I actually do have, I know a guy, like we're mutuals on Xbox Live that repairs windows in Portland.

00:15:51.000 He was like, he was so damn busy.

00:15:55.000 Seamus, Seamus, if you're listening, Someone already commented in chat, Seamus, we need you.

00:16:01.000 Seamus, it's a video where it's a guy.

00:16:03.000 Actually, Seamus might have already done this.

00:16:05.000 It's a guy driving around in like a Porsche or like a Model S plaid.

00:16:11.000 And he's got gold diamond studded sunglasses and a grill.

00:16:15.000 And it's just like a glass repair company in Portland.

00:16:19.000 I learned today that the majority of renters in the US, the people who rent their homes or apartments, live in basically 240 counties of the nation's just over 3,000.

00:16:30.000 And a lot of them are obviously around LA, in New York City, things like that.

00:16:34.000 And so I would be interested to see the cross map of Antifa activity and renters, people who aren't actually tied to the community.

00:16:43.000 They're sort of claiming social ties to the community.

00:16:45.000 But if it got really bad, they would all leave if they wanted to.

00:16:50.000 So anyways, that's for my think tank that I just invented right now.

00:16:53.000 I'll create that map for you guys.

00:16:54.000 What is the end?

00:16:56.000 Your friend saying that she doesn't want to leave because she thinks they want her to leave.

00:16:59.000 But there's nothing you can do about it.

00:17:02.000 Like the system will be broken.

00:17:03.000 It's very difficult to build a machine.

00:17:05.000 It's very easy to throw a wrench in the spokes.

00:17:07.000 Yeah.

00:17:07.000 Well, she's of means where she's fighting back politically, and she's actually trying to seed people who aren't crazy in the government.

00:17:16.000 Because, I mean, Portland only happened because the mayor and the city council and eventually the police let it happen, and they let it fester, and they let it get big.

00:17:26.000 And pretty soon it becomes this culture where all of these kids are doing this for a living.

00:17:33.000 You don't have to let it be that way.

00:17:35.000 So the question is, can you ever take it back?

00:17:38.000 Can you actually ever restore it so that people who work and produce and create and generate revenue for the city, will they actually come back?

00:17:49.000 That's a question because you can also just migrate and move somewhere else and live somewhere else.

00:17:55.000 I don't know.

00:17:55.000 I kind of recommend it.

00:17:57.000 I think the issue is culture.

00:17:59.000 And these cities, the reason Antifa's getting away with it is there is no culture.

00:18:03.000 Imagine if the overwhelming majority of people agreed with each other on how these things should be dealt with.

00:18:09.000 You wouldn't need to worry about anything.

00:18:11.000 You wouldn't need to fight at all.

00:18:13.000 The idea that you're going to government and being like, we better get good people in means good people aren't trying to get in and you're actively trying to encourage people to engage.

00:18:22.000 And that's a good thing, but it does mean that there's no shared culture.

00:18:26.000 If you go to a rural neighborhood, a tight-knit, small community, Antifa shows up, the locals are going to come out and they're going to be like, don't try it.

00:18:35.000 And they're going to be in agreement.

00:18:36.000 The cops are going to be standing alongside the people who live there.

00:18:39.000 In Portland, the cops go, I don't care.

00:18:40.000 I'm not getting involved.

00:18:41.000 I don't care who you are.

00:18:41.000 Because there's no community.

00:18:43.000 There's no culture.

00:18:44.000 So then you've got businesses being like, the cops won't defend me.

00:18:47.000 They vote against the cops.

00:18:48.000 What do you expect?

00:18:49.000 Yeah, and the cops are like, well, the government won't take our side even though they're writing our checks.

00:18:53.000 I mean, I think what's interesting is that a lot of this is not solution-oriented, whereas if you have investment in your community, if you have a shared culture, you want to see it thrive.

00:19:04.000 You are part of something and you don't look around saying like, bah, burn it all down.

00:19:08.000 But with all of these attacks, especially in Portland, it's ultimately about the chaos.

00:19:12.000 The chaos is the ends to all of this.

00:19:14.000 It's the purpose for it.

00:19:16.000 That means that the city is not something they're trying to preserve or add into, so to speak.

00:19:22.000 It's also, it is a political monoculture.

00:19:24.000 I mean, one of the problems is that there was no competition for governance.

00:19:30.000 Everybody's a Democrat, but not everybody's just a Democrat.

00:19:32.000 They're a woke, check all the boxes.

00:19:35.000 That's Portland.

00:19:36.000 Look, man, we have a bunch of laws in the books that aren't enforced.

00:19:39.000 I forget his name, but he was unwilling.

00:19:41.000 Tom Wheeler.

00:19:42.000 Tom Wheeler.

00:19:43.000 Yeah, it's still Wheeler.

00:19:44.000 And he was unwilling to do anything about them, and they repaid him by showing up at

00:19:49.000 his apartment building and terrorizing him.

00:19:54.000 That's Portland.

00:19:55.000 Look, man, we have a bunch of laws in the books that aren't enforced.

00:20:01.000 We have a bunch of laws that are enforced that aren't even in statutory law.

00:20:06.000 Police in New York creating frozen zones.

00:20:09.000 And then the issue, the issue is who controls power and what is the community willing to accept or not accept.

00:20:15.000 Portland will not accept police arresting protesters.

00:20:18.000 So the protesters destroy the city.

00:20:20.000 And then these people who refuse to complain about it and let it happen, flee, and then bring their politics to other cities.

00:20:25.000 Yeah, it's not, it doesn't take- It's a rat utopia experiment.

00:20:29.000 It doesn't take a lot for a police force to deter and prevent that type of behavior.

00:20:37.000 It doesn't take a lot of bashing heads together and stuff.

00:20:43.000 The police generally know the people that are causing problems in an area.

00:20:49.000 You talk to police and they see the same faces all the time.

00:20:53.000 They get to know the people because they do spend some time in the community and the people that cause problems continuously cause problems.

00:21:01.000 The police do have the ability and the know-how to clean an area up and make these kind of behaviors stop.

00:21:08.000 You just have to have a DA, you have to have a legislature or a judiciary that will keep these people off the streets.

00:21:17.000 Let's jump to this next story.

00:21:18.000 Derivative.

00:21:19.000 Police move in to clear Gaza Camp from Portland State University library arrests made.

00:21:23.000 It's not so much this story that I want to talk about.

00:21:26.000 It is a video explaining and helping you understand what's going on.

00:21:32.000 I can tell you very simply, Portland is the city equivalent of a mom at an ice cream shop with her nine-year-old son who's going, Mom, I want three scoops of ice cream.

00:21:45.000 And she goes, OK, please just stop yelling and I'll give you whatever you want.

00:21:47.000 That's what it is.

00:21:48.000 And I'll show you with this video from Ollie London.

00:21:51.000 Students wearing... Let me pause real quick.

00:21:53.000 Students wearing masks and bike helmets charge at police using garbage can shields.

00:21:57.000 As they rush towards police, they trip over and fall in the dirt.

00:22:00.000 Okay, that's awesome.

00:22:01.000 Well, here's the video of the police making the arrests of these criminals.

00:22:05.000 And here's how they respond.

00:22:07.000 This is hilarious.

00:22:09.000 Look, look, they're charging.

00:22:10.000 They're charging the police.

00:22:12.000 Go get them, buddy.

00:22:13.000 You got this.

00:22:15.000 Yeah!

00:22:16.000 Here we go, watch.

00:22:17.000 It's so good.

00:22:18.000 This person on the right Actually charged and attacked a police officer.

00:22:25.000 You're going to jail, man.

00:22:26.000 With a garbage can.

00:22:27.000 That's a felony!

00:22:28.000 Look at this.

00:22:30.000 Look.

00:22:30.000 I want to say this.

00:22:33.000 First, I am grateful these people are so stupid.

00:22:37.000 They're so good.

00:22:38.000 They're so good.

00:22:38.000 They have Nerf guns.

00:22:38.000 that they are using garbage cans.

00:22:39.000 They're so good.

00:22:40.000 They're so good.

00:22:41.000 Because we don't want these people to be going out with actual weapons or anything like this.

00:22:44.000 But they may as well be going out with plunger darts bought from Walgreens with a little

00:22:50.000 tiny doll and little suction cups on it.

00:22:52.000 They have Nerf guns.

00:22:53.000 They're like, we've got this.

00:22:54.000 And Nerf guns.

00:22:55.000 It's better than them going out there and actually being violent.

00:22:57.000 But it shows you these kids are playing.

00:22:58.000 They're playing like children with plastic shields and charging into police thinking they're playing a game.

00:23:04.000 And it's because the adults have left the room.

00:23:09.000 They're not taking care of the young people in this.

00:23:11.000 And now you've got a bunch of permanent children running around smashing things.

00:23:16.000 You take a look at that video from Columbia where the police barricade the door.

00:23:20.000 And the woman goes, oh my God, it's finals.

00:23:22.000 Can I go home?

00:23:23.000 It's like, lady, you're committing felonies.

00:23:26.000 You're probably going to go to jail.

00:23:27.000 You're not going home.

00:23:28.000 But these, I blame their parents.

00:23:31.000 A whole generation of disgusting, lazy, spineless, disaffected parents.

00:23:37.000 And I'm offended by it.

00:23:41.000 I think Bad Religion wrote a song about it.

00:23:44.000 I think one of the interesting things with all of this is that they are such a hive mind.

00:23:50.000 They're looking for validation.

00:23:51.000 You know that one guy with the trash can, you know, shield was like, this is my moment.

00:23:56.000 I am a hero for the cause.

00:23:57.000 Here we go.

00:23:58.000 What did he think was going to happen?

00:24:00.000 There's no long term.

00:24:01.000 And Portland is having a terrible time.

00:24:05.000 There aren't that many police in Portland.

00:24:07.000 I think in 2021, police recruitment hit an all-time low and crime was just on the rise.

00:24:12.000 I mean, I don't think anyone who's interested in law enforcement is like, and I'll be a police officer in Portland because they don't want to deal with this, right?

00:24:18.000 If you could get a nice job in a nicer suburb or, you know, in Idaho or somewhere else, you would do that because this is just ridiculous.

00:24:26.000 And I think ultimately, you're kind of at the mercies of these impulsive PERMA children.

00:24:31.000 I think these kids are actually surprised that the cops are going to do anything because the expectation and the tradition and the history of the last, whatever it is, four or five years is that we can do whatever we want and no one's going to, no one's going to push back.

00:24:46.000 And, and then he, then he's on his ass and what just happened.

00:24:49.000 That's not how it is.

00:24:51.000 Not only that, like, like Tim was saying, this is probably a symptom of kids that have not had any real discipline growing up right now.

00:24:59.000 I'm not talking about physical discipline, but like, I know there are a lot of people my age that are raising kids that their kid has never heard them say no.

00:25:10.000 It's a kid in an ice cream shop screaming that he wants an extra scoop.

00:25:15.000 That is what's going on with a lot of this.

00:25:18.000 And then they run into reality, which is a police officer that has been told, no, all these kids are going to jail.

00:25:26.000 So all those police officers are gonna round you up and they're gonna throw you into a van to bring you to jail.

00:25:32.000 And the problem is, however, when things like this happen where the kid charges a cop full speed with a plastic shield like a moron...

00:25:41.000 They'll likely just get let go.

00:25:43.000 Now, they may get charged with something and then their parents are going to complain.

00:25:46.000 You take a look at when they were torching DC during Trump's inauguration, the protesters got paid millions of dollars.

00:25:52.000 It broke down to several thousand dollars each or something like that.

00:25:56.000 Or it could have even been more than that.

00:25:57.000 I think it was over a million bucks split between a couple hundred people.

00:26:01.000 The adults have left the room.

00:26:03.000 These are 20-year-olds who are behaving like 7-year-olds.

00:26:06.000 Their behavior will not change.

00:26:08.000 They have no honor, they have no integrity, they have no understanding of how the world works.

00:26:12.000 I beg and pray that they get the world they're asking for because then they will cry buckets when they realize what they've done to this beautiful society that we once had.

00:26:22.000 They're literally getting it now.

00:26:24.000 No, they're not.

00:26:24.000 No, no, but I'm talking about getting the fighting with cops and stuff like that.

00:26:27.000 But that's make-believe for them.

00:26:29.000 They're getting let go.

00:26:29.000 I'm talking about when bears are roaming the city streets because there's no police anymore.

00:26:34.000 When a guy breaks into their house and they're going, oh no, why am I being robbed all of a sudden?

00:26:39.000 There's human crap all over the streets.

00:26:40.000 And every time this stuff happens, they just go, I blame the cops.

00:26:44.000 There's a great post.

00:26:45.000 You know, let me see if I can pull this up from Defiant Elves.

00:26:51.000 You guys know Defiant L's on Twitter and Instagram?

00:26:53.000 Let me pull this one up.

00:26:55.000 See if I can find it.

00:26:56.000 And it's... I don't think Instagram wants me to actually find it.

00:26:59.000 Okay, here we go.

00:27:01.000 Let's see if I can pick this one up.

00:27:03.000 Here we go.

00:27:05.000 Joshua P. Hill says, today starts with cops attacking students for their solidarity with Gaza in Atlanta, Chicago, and Princeton, New Jersey.

00:27:12.000 The Free Palestine Movement, like every single movement for a better world, requires the abolition of the police.

00:27:17.000 And then two days later, he tweeted, white supremacists are now marching in Charleston, West Virginia, with no police in sight.

00:27:26.000 Children!

00:27:27.000 The abolition of the police.

00:27:28.000 So there's like, all of these cities, but Portland again is this festering example of everything they do wrong.

00:27:36.000 It's not, they talk about restorative justice, but what they mean is catch and release.

00:27:41.000 No matter what you do, no matter what you burn, no matter what you break, we're gonna pick you up and then let you go without even being arrested.

00:27:50.000 And we've done a documentary about restorative justice.

00:27:53.000 Real restorative justice teaches young people who do something wrong accountability.

00:27:59.000 They have to say, I did that.

00:28:01.000 I stole that.

00:28:02.000 And I feel they have to look their victim in the eye.

00:28:04.000 And instead, what they say in Portland, oh, this is restorative justice, but it's just, it's no justice at all.

00:28:10.000 It's no responsibility.

00:28:11.000 They're not being taught to take ownership of their actions.

00:28:14.000 Yeah, there's no accountability.

00:28:17.000 I'm loathe to bring up all the college campus protests, but I think this is something we're seeing with the generation of children who are told activism and virtue signaling is the most important thing that you could do.

00:28:27.000 Prioritize it over anything else.

00:28:29.000 I agree there's sort of a lack of discipline in the home.

00:28:33.000 There's a lack of consequences.

00:28:35.000 They think that they are on the right side of history and therefore there aren't consequences, which is very different, I think, than people who did protest for civil rights in the past or, you know, other people who have taken to protesting as a form of political activism.

00:28:47.000 I think previously people knew you were taking a risk, that you would face arrest, that there could be consequences that could affect you long term, but you really felt like this was worth it.

00:28:55.000 This is like the opposite, saying we shouldn't face consequences because what we're doing is the most important thing ever.

00:29:01.000 It's almost delusional.

00:29:04.000 Again, I think I talk about this a little bit too much, but like when you're a young person, if you're looking around and even if it's just 30% of people your age, if they're acting like this, does that make you want to be like that?

00:29:15.000 I mean, if you grew up in Portland or if you went to college there and you love it as a city, but you're watching it get torched, do you look at these people and say, well, keep up the good work.

00:29:23.000 This is going great.

00:29:24.000 Or do you say like, I think of myself as being on sides with you, but actually you're making my life impossible.

00:29:32.000 It's I mean, I think what happens is that people take the easy path and you either flee or you join.

00:29:38.000 Yeah.

00:29:39.000 And that's that's why Portland is burning.

00:29:42.000 Do you think there's something unique about Portland that made it the hotbed?

00:29:47.000 Yeah, they tolerated too much BS very early on, and it became like a cool thing to do.

00:29:53.000 Like, this is like a day camp for these kids, right?

00:29:56.000 This is a fun thing to do.

00:29:57.000 They're part of the cool kids.

00:29:59.000 And now they're going to F around and find out that maybe at some point, Even these cities don't tolerate that kind of behavior because it's a very practical thing.

00:30:11.000 If they run out of a tax base at some point, the government says, you know what?

00:30:16.000 I don't think so.

00:30:17.000 I think people leave.

00:30:18.000 I think what we are seeing is when the summer of love happened, those who are more inclined to merit, to build and be responsible, leave.

00:30:31.000 What's left is Well, what happens if you have ten children in a classroom, and the teacher goes, I can't do this, I'm done, and leaves?

00:30:40.000 Well, the kids are gonna start just doing random things, they're gonna trash the place, they're gonna be drawing all over the walls, it's gonna be bedlam.

00:30:47.000 So, I'd like to believe that in Portland, there's a breaking point, and people finally say, enough, we need to get our city in order.

00:30:55.000 I don't think so.

00:30:56.000 Property values go down, so the people who own buildings will be like, I better just sell this.

00:31:00.000 Well, they're not going to get their asking price, so let's sell it at a loss to someone who's thinking, wow, 10% under market, I'll take it.

00:31:05.000 And then they go, oops, I shouldn't have bought this.

00:31:08.000 Property values will continue to tank.

00:31:09.000 Many people will probably default on their loans.

00:31:12.000 We're already seeing this in San Francisco, where large corporations, like the Westfield Mall, and I believe it was, what was it, the Hilton, or there was another hotel, basically told their creditor, you know what?

00:31:24.000 You can have it.

00:31:25.000 Buy.

00:31:26.000 And just dipped out and abandoned an entire mall just like in the middle of the city, saying, there's no point.

00:31:32.000 So what's happening when you have no community is that no one wants to be the person to lay the brick so that every day we can have shelter.

00:31:41.000 And I've experienced this growing up and it's disheartening, but throughout my life I have found it has become increasingly difficult to convince people to do any amount of work.

00:31:53.000 I believe it's the millennial generation.

00:31:54.000 I believe millennials are mostly lost.

00:31:57.000 They want everything and they want to do nothing.

00:31:59.000 I tell people, I remember back when I was living in Chicago skateboarding and I went to all of my friends and I said, we're always complaining about the harsh winters and our inability to skate.

00:32:09.000 If each of us contribute only 50 bucks a month, we can rent an indoor space.

00:32:13.000 And they went, okay, you do it and then let me know.

00:32:15.000 I'm like, there you go.

00:32:16.000 Now you'll never have it.

00:32:17.000 But I'll tell you what, when I save the money and I get it, you're not coming.

00:32:20.000 Because you're lazy, you don't want to contribute.

00:32:22.000 And then what happens?

00:32:23.000 Then they expect to be able to be let in.

00:32:25.000 What's happening now is the people who live in these cities have no community.

00:32:29.000 And they decide, I'm going to leave.

00:32:32.000 I don't want to spend any money here anymore.

00:32:34.000 And then, one by one, the building falls apart.

00:32:36.000 Everything starts going to crap.

00:32:38.000 And then you end up with San Francisco and there's just poop all over the streets.

00:32:42.000 And the businesses are abandoned by massive corporations.

00:32:44.000 And there's no one to come in and fix it because nobody wants to lose money.

00:32:48.000 Who's gonna spend $10 million in San Francisco, hoping the city turns around and their investment improves?

00:32:54.000 Nobody.

00:32:55.000 And you see that in, like, you saw it in Detroit.

00:32:58.000 Like, after 2008, after the auto crisis, not that Detroit was doing great before that, but, like, after that, there was a serious exodus of people.

00:33:07.000 And it's really, really hurt.

00:33:08.000 Like, Flint's a mess.

00:33:09.000 Like, these areas have, like, really been affected.

00:33:13.000 And you, in fact, you can see it throughout the whole Rust Belt.

00:33:16.000 Like, as companies leave, Jobs leave and that hurts the place, you know, the people of those places.

00:33:23.000 So if you have... I am Sean, Actual Justice Warrior.

00:33:28.000 I am Sean 90, I think.

00:33:29.000 He says all the time, and I think he's right, like, poverty doesn't drive crime, but crime drives poverty because crime makes investment leave the area.

00:33:40.000 Crime makes people that have means leave.

00:33:43.000 If you have the means to leave, that means you're left with poor people, your tax base dries up because even though people refuse to acknowledge it, all of the taxes are paid by a small percentage of Americans.

00:33:57.000 So if you drive the wealthy people away, those are also the people that are paying taxes.

00:34:02.000 That means your services get worse, your schools get worse, your police forces get worse, all of this stuff.

00:34:08.000 is downstream from crime, from unsafe cities.

00:34:13.000 You need to have, and this was something that I was complaining about, like when people started talking about ACAB, like the whole ACAB sentiment, right?

00:34:21.000 Not the idea that communities don't support your police forces.

00:34:28.000 That was going to always mean that you were going to get a lower quality police force.

00:34:34.000 And we're seeing those results now.

00:34:37.000 Someone, uh, super chatted saying that they think it was the bad parents, uh, Jasonaut says, bad parents were Gen X. I don't think so.

00:34:44.000 Gen Xers, for the most part, had Gen Z kids, and Gen Z kids are turning out to be relatively based.

00:34:49.000 Maybe it's because of, uh, because of their circumstances.

00:34:52.000 But I do believe that many boomers were bad parents.

00:34:56.000 I certainly think there are great boomers, and there are many boomers who had, uh, have great kids and were great parents.

00:35:01.000 I think the, uh, the boomers gave us Star Trek The Next Generation.

00:35:04.000 Brilliant.

00:35:05.000 But there are a lot of boomers who were like, I don't know what, post-hippie, lazy, do whatever you want for their kids, and now their kids are running around smashing things, shaving their heads, and they're gonna struggle to survive.

00:35:18.000 If any one of these kids in Portland, and I know they're adults over the age of 20, but they're functional children, you take 10 of those kids and you teleport them instantly into, I don't know, the middle of Alaska.

00:35:32.000 Oh, they're done.

00:35:33.000 It's just it's just over. Now imagine you take 10 young Amish people and blink. They're all of a

00:35:40.000 sudden in the middle of the woods. They're gonna be like, well, let's get to it. And you come back

00:35:43.000 in a week and there's a village and you're like, wow, these people know how to build.

00:35:46.000 Yeah.

00:35:47.000 Do you remember when AOC so infamously said my generation has never known true prosperity?

00:35:53.000 And, and it, oh my God, it was a great punchline, but I tried to take it seriously. And I've,

00:35:59.000 I have this half baked, uh, sort of Jordan Peterson meets Ayn Rand sort of theory about this,

00:36:04.000 that we have a problem in that the capitalist system actually creates tremendous prosperity.

00:36:10.000 And the big question is, do I get a third scoop of ice cream?

00:36:13.000 Or do I get the new iPad?

00:36:15.000 Or, you know, what is my trauma going to be?

00:36:18.000 Because I don't have everything that I need.

00:36:21.000 And I think there's a crisis in meaning when people don't have to work for anything.

00:36:27.000 And there's, there's, there's a dignity that comes from work.

00:36:29.000 And this is the Jordan Peterson part, but maybe also the Ayn Rand part that the struggle itself, trying to do something with your life.

00:36:36.000 And if you never had to do any of that, you're lost.

00:36:39.000 You have no meaning, you have no purpose.

00:36:42.000 So you see Antifa or whatever, and you're like, I'm going to, I'm going to go join that because I got nothing else.

00:36:49.000 Yeah, I agree.

00:36:49.000 I also think it creates a sense of envy.

00:36:51.000 I think when you have a lot of people who don't really have purpose, when they look at people who do, they're filled with jealousy.

00:36:58.000 And they can't always name it, but they're like, you are living life in a way that I subconsciously know I want, and therefore the fact that you have something I don't is a threat to me.

00:37:08.000 And I think that's part of sort of the materialism that comes with a generation that grew up in prosperity, right?

00:37:15.000 That they have so much that they can't think of life without it and they therefore can't empathize with like what they actually need to do to create a life for themselves that's meaningful.

00:37:27.000 It is wild to me how many People that I know who grew up, you know, very comfortably.

00:37:33.000 A lot of them, their parents were together, provided for them.

00:37:36.000 You know, they went to college.

00:37:37.000 We'll turn around and be like, well, capitalism is a terrible system.

00:37:40.000 Like, then tell me which one you would rather live under because you have gotten everything you want out of life because of the system that you are now deciding is so evil.

00:37:50.000 They don't think they have it.

00:37:52.000 They don't understand what they have because they didn't ever have to get it.

00:37:55.000 And they always, they want something else.

00:37:58.000 They're lost from eating and so they're jealous of the idea that there's something they don't have.

00:38:03.000 Yeah.

00:38:03.000 Well, let's move on to this next story and we'll get into social drama.

00:38:08.000 The New York Post reports Daily Wire obtains gag order against Candace Owens despite Ben Shapiro wanting debate report.

00:38:16.000 We also have the original reporting from Glenn Greenwald who says, as the Daily Wire publicly negotiated a debate with Candace Owens, it secretly sought and obtained a gag order against her.

00:38:26.000 The argument being that the reason why the debate has never happened is because while Candace Owens was saying let's debate and they were working out the details, behind the scenes the Daily Wire was saying, she can't say these things and thus there won't be a debate.

00:38:38.000 I do believe that Glenn Greenwald's, uh, I'll give you my bias.

00:38:42.000 I think Glenn Greenwald's report is biased itself.

00:38:45.000 And I think it's largely due to Glenn Greenwald's bias against Israel.

00:38:50.000 But there's probably something here.

00:38:53.000 I think there's more to it than simply the Daily Wire was like, oh, if Candace Owens debates us, we'll look stupid.

00:38:59.000 We better seek a gag order because no arbitrator is going to be like, well, that's legitimate.

00:39:04.000 There's going to be something else behind this.

00:39:06.000 It looks like the story might be.

00:39:08.000 That Candace Owens retweeted a video of Andrew Schultz saying Ben Shapiro has exposed himself as someone who can only debate college students and can't actually debate anybody for real, and the Daily Wire took issue with that and subsequent posts which were likes and retweets that were basically insulting and disparaging the company, and they said, hey, knock that off.

00:39:28.000 In Glenn Greenwald's reporting, They mentioned two statements.

00:39:32.000 One from Candace Owens saying, he writes, when asked for comment to be included in the story, Owens replied, I wish I could comment on this, but I can't, can neither confirm nor deny.

00:39:42.000 And then went on to say, Boring said, your story is inaccurate to the point of being false, though he did not specify a single inaccuracy, nor did he deny that the Daily Wire had sought and obtained a gag order on Owens at the same time they were publicly posturing as wanting a debate with her.

00:39:57.000 The confirmation we obtained of all these facts is indisputable.

00:40:00.000 Boring added, I'm sure you can appreciate how fraught a high-profile breakup like this is.

00:40:03.000 For that reason, we are trying to resolve our issues with Candace privately.

00:40:07.000 The issue I see right here, and this is the example that I use, is that when it comes to statements from Candace Owens, they're fine to accept that she says, I can't talk about it.

00:40:17.000 When Boring says, You know, we're trying to keep this private.

00:40:20.000 They insinuate that because he's not going into detail, it implies untoward behavior.

00:40:25.000 That's why I say Glenn Greenwald's biased on this one.

00:40:27.000 That being said, the story is interesting and I'm curious what you guys think as to the debate between Candace and Ben Shapiro and Israel and all that jazz.

00:40:35.000 I mean, it strikes me as hypocritical.

00:40:38.000 I'm mostly on Team Candice on this one because The Daily Wire has made a brand out of being pro-speech.

00:40:50.000 And I get contracts and I get bad breakups with businesses, but this seems particularly duplicitous, saying that I want to debate you, but I'm going to legally shut you down so that I never have to debate you.

00:41:05.000 I don't like it.

00:41:06.000 But that's the assumption that's being made by Glenn Greenwald.

00:41:10.000 The argument being that Glenn's effectively making an opinion piece where he says, we have evidence of a gag order and that is why there is no debate.

00:41:20.000 It would certainly seem that in a legal context, if the Daily Wire was seeking a gag order, no arbitrator would agree with them if they were also publicly asking for a debate.

00:41:29.000 So there seems to be components of the story missing.

00:41:32.000 From what I read, so Chris Burtman, who's man of Burt on Twitter, he's a writer at Skinner.

00:41:36.000 First off, this weekend that all this blew up, he had some of the funniest takes in response to all of this.

00:41:41.000 He's fun follow if you guys want to check him out.

00:41:43.000 From what I read from his coverage today, part of the issue is that The Daily Wire is saying that by calling for this debate, she violated her agreement with the company, which again, I don't really feel like I have a dog in this fight, but I think it seems strange that they're saying this back and forth that you had on Twitter calling for this debate is the violation of the contract when also Daily Wire employees were participating in it.

00:42:07.000 You know, Ben was in it until he had to log off for religious reasons and then Jerry Boring picked it back up.

00:42:12.000 And so it does seem slightly confusing to me that you know, they were publicly having this debate with her

00:42:19.000 and then maybe later went back and said, actually, we've decided that that was a violation of our

00:42:23.000 contract.

00:42:24.000 That if they're engaging in the conversation and the argument being that Candace Owens posting

00:42:31.000 Andrew Schultz and other things was was disparaging. It seems strange that they would

00:42:36.000 engage in that debate with her.

00:42:40.000 Yeah, it's hard to know without knowing all the language of their contract.

00:42:43.000 And again, like, it seems like such an internal debate that I'm always wary to comment on what's going on with another company.

00:42:49.000 Just because like, we could never know for sure unless you're on the ground.

00:42:54.000 But again, from what I read from from Chris Burtman today, it's this this fight that was going on is the problem.

00:43:00.000 But again, they both participated in it.

00:43:02.000 But it seems like the only news we really have on is from Glenn Greenwald.

00:43:05.000 And I mean, this is what really got me.

00:43:10.000 It's like, he's like, why isn't boring?

00:43:12.000 You know, he says, he did not specify a single inaccuracy, nor did he deny.

00:43:16.000 Well, he also says, we're trying to keep this private.

00:43:18.000 When Candace, someone says, can either confirm or deny, they stop there and they just don't even entertain why she would say that.

00:43:23.000 Obviously she's being gagged, right?

00:43:25.000 So they just go, okay, thank you, Candace.

00:43:26.000 Now, why won't boring elaborate?

00:43:28.000 Well, because if you go to arbitration, the arbitration says, we are going to enforce a gag order.

00:43:32.000 Jeremy, you also have to shut the F up.

00:43:34.000 And so what, what may have happened is, Someone at the company said, Candace is posting and liking these things.

00:43:42.000 Then they pulled in the Andrew Schultz thing, went to the arbitrator and said, this is a violation of the non-disparagement.

00:43:47.000 And then he said, well, then you guys all need to stop posting as well.

00:43:52.000 And they went, okay.

00:43:53.000 And they told Candace, the arbitrator says, everyone stop posting.

00:43:57.000 And now the Daily Wire is getting flack because they're not answering Glenn's questions.

00:44:00.000 Yeah, and I can understand if you're Glenn Greenwald, him saying like, your reporting is false to the point of inaccuracy, like, you take that personally, especially when you're then like, okay, tell me why, and he's like, I can't, which Jeremy Boring might be legally bound not to, it's just, it's a very specific criticism to Levy at a reporter, your reporting is false.

00:44:21.000 Incorrect to the point of inaccuracy, but you can't tell me where I went wrong.

00:44:26.000 I don't know.

00:44:26.000 I would be uncomfortable with it as well.

00:44:28.000 Not that, you know, that excuses any bias.

00:44:31.000 I mean, look, I'm not even sure what this beef started as anymore, to be honest with you.

00:44:36.000 I don't know if any of us do.

00:44:38.000 I'm not I don't know like the idea that the daily wire says that they want to actually if that's the case that they would say okay we want to actually debate with you but then in back channels if if that's the case that's Probably the lamest thing that you could possibly do, you know?

00:44:57.000 Otherwise, like I said, I'm not even sure what they're gonna debate about.

00:45:01.000 Is it just like, is Israel good or is Israel bad?

00:45:04.000 Is it anti-Semitic to say we shouldn't fund Israel and stuff like that?

00:45:07.000 Is claiming that Israel's policy is similar to the Nazis anti-Semitic?

00:45:12.000 I imagine that's a lot of it.

00:45:14.000 Well, I mean, if they're gonna have the debate, like, have the debate, shit, or get off the pot.

00:45:21.000 I wonder if the real issue is that Ben and Jeremy are going back and forth, and then someone else, because there's other interested investors involved, said, I don't care.

00:45:31.000 Y'all need to shut up because she's in violation of non-disparagement and we don't want to deal with this.

00:45:35.000 It's probably stupid and boring.

00:45:36.000 Right.

00:45:37.000 Yeah.

00:45:38.000 And ultimately what this comes to is the real issue behind this is literally not Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens and Daily Wire having a gag order or non-disparagement.

00:45:50.000 We know what the real underlying issue and the reason why this story is getting the news, right?

00:45:56.000 It's Israel.

00:45:57.000 Say it.

00:45:58.000 Of course it is.

00:45:58.000 It's Israel.

00:46:00.000 It's people who are obsessed with Israel.

00:46:02.000 Glenn Greenwald is hyper-focused on Israel for a lot of reasons.

00:46:06.000 And I'm not saying he's wrong to be.

00:46:08.000 There's a lot of people who live or die by just talking about Israel.

00:46:13.000 It's the only thing they care about.

00:46:14.000 There are a bunch of post-liberal and disaffected liberals.

00:46:19.000 Who were very much Democrats, come out now on the anti-woke side.

00:46:24.000 When the Israel issue happens, they're instantly standing alongside all the far leftists as it pertains to Israel.

00:46:29.000 And so sure enough, like, I do believe Glenn Greenwald is not a credible reporter on a lot of these issues.

00:46:37.000 And there are other issues pertaining to, that I've questioned him on the past, pertaining to foreign policy and reporting, where I think he is very, very biased.

00:46:47.000 So now you have the issue of Candace Owens, why she left the Daily Wire.

00:46:51.000 It's funny because everyone's claiming it has to do with criticism of Israel, and I'm like, Jeremy Boring actually defended her when she criticized Israel policy and US funding.

00:47:01.000 He said she's welcome to be here, she's allowed to give her opinions.

00:47:04.000 And then her contract ended and she left.

00:47:07.000 And now everyone's like, aha, it's because she criticized Israel.

00:47:10.000 Or it's like, I don't know, her contract ended and she left.

00:47:13.000 She realized she could make more money somewhere else.

00:47:15.000 She didn't want to work with these guys.

00:47:16.000 They don't get along.

00:47:17.000 And so she left.

00:47:18.000 Yeah, I think the big thing is that there was obvious tension between her and Ben Shapiro.

00:47:22.000 There's that video of him, I think it was at some sort of private dinner, you know, criticizing her pretty intensely.

00:47:28.000 But it is extremely difficult from the outside to say, you know, especially because we're in a political space, like how much is actual...

00:47:37.000 political ideological difference as opposed to like personality and contractual, you know, debate.

00:47:43.000 I think there are people who believe similar things that don't get along.

00:47:46.000 And I think there are people who believe completely different things that do get along.

00:47:50.000 It's hard to see when you're sort of enmeshed in all of this, which one is which.

00:47:54.000 I think it is, you know, no matter how it plays out, I am sad to say that this debate isn't going to happen.

00:48:00.000 I think it would have been really interesting.

00:48:02.000 Neither personality involved is obligated to go into personal details on it, but I think some of the topics that they comment on, having had the debate, you know, I think the internet would have liked it.

00:48:12.000 The internet would have absolutely liked it.

00:48:14.000 It would have been an absolute S show though, I think, personally.

00:48:19.000 That's why the internet would love it.

00:48:23.000 In the vein of internet drama surrounding Israel, Let's jump to this next story, which starts with the Defiant L's post that I'd mentioned in a previous segment.

00:48:34.000 This is where a, uh, I'll give you the news right away.

00:48:37.000 Nick Fuentes will be unbanned on Axe.

00:48:40.000 Elon Musk will reinstate his account and allow him back on the platform.

00:48:43.000 How it begins!

00:48:45.000 Welcome to the internet, my friends.

00:48:46.000 Joshua P. Hill, in a tweet that Defiant L's posted, he says, Today starts with cops attacking students for their

00:48:52.000 solidarity with Gaza in Atlanta, Chicago, and Princeton, New Jersey. The Free Palestine

00:48:57.000 Movement, like every single movement for a better world, requires the abolition of police. Two

00:49:01.000 days later, he tweets, White supremacists are now marching in Charleston, West

00:49:06.000 Virginia, with no police in sight.

00:49:08.000 That kid's a commie, too.

00:49:09.000 Yes, I'd imagine.

00:49:10.000 And super consistent in his thought, obviously.

00:49:12.000 Elon Musk then responds.

00:49:14.000 Goldfish memory.

00:49:17.000 He posted completely contradictory demands only two days apart.

00:49:21.000 Certainly, if I want to steel man his position, It's actually that the police attacked the Free Palestine, but didn't attack the white supremacists.

00:49:29.000 Not that he wants police to do so.

00:49:31.000 But we can certainly say, I don't think these people think that deeply, and I'm not gonna give him the benefit of the doubt.

00:49:36.000 In response to Elon Musk's post, One guy, Chris Futris-Z, says you work for Jews, to Elon Musk.

00:49:45.000 With a post from Nick Fuentes that reads, heh, what does it say about our society that the cops let BLM torch our cities but won't let students criticize Israel?

00:49:53.000 It means Jews control America, that is the obvious conclusion.

00:49:57.000 I certainly don't think that logic is there, but certainly Nick said it.

00:50:01.000 And Elon Musk responded, While I don't condone all the actions of any one group, I must admit to being openly philo-semitic and generally try to see the good in all people.

00:50:11.000 Goya Bean Groyper responds with this AI-enhanced photo of Nick Fuentes.

00:50:17.000 I don't know if it's actually enhanced.

00:50:18.000 He says, bring back Nick Fuentes.

00:50:18.000 I'm kidding.

00:50:20.000 Bring Nick Fuentes back on Twitter.

00:50:22.000 He has been banned since 2021.

00:50:23.000 What happened to your promise, big guy?

00:50:25.000 Elon Musk responds.

00:50:28.000 Very well, he will be reinstated, provided he does not violate the law and let him be crushed by the comments and community notes.

00:50:34.000 It is better to have anti-whatever out in the open to be rebutted than grow simmering in the darkness.

00:50:40.000 Ashley St.

00:50:41.000 Clair responded, this will get enormous backlash.

00:50:43.000 But if it is to be a free speech platform, it is the right move.

00:50:46.000 I say this as someone who has been viciously attacked by his followers for years now.

00:50:50.000 I do believe Nick was also incredibly radicalized as a result of censorship.

00:50:54.000 And then Elon says, fate loves irony but hates hypocrisy.

00:50:57.000 I cannot claim to be a defender of free speech but then permanently ban someone who hasn't violated the law, no matter how much I disagree with what they say.

00:51:04.000 This will probably cause us to lose a lot of advertisers and makes me sad, but a principle is a principle.

00:51:10.000 And thus, Elon Musk has pledged to restore Nick Fuentes, and my comment on Twitter is that, seeing that, I said, Elon Musk is based AF.

00:51:20.000 I think Nick is wrong.

00:51:22.000 I think his logic is not sound, but I certainly believe he has a right to say his opinions and be challenged.

00:51:28.000 And the example I'd like to give is that woman from the Westboro Baptist Church, famously on Twitter, spreading her views, getting challenged, and being de-radicalized by the exposure to a larger community.

00:51:40.000 So, like, it's not like Nick has anything to say that is worse than other people on Twitter.

00:51:47.000 There are currently people on Twitter that say things that are far more offensive or whatever than Nick says, like, without a question.

00:51:56.000 Guaranteed, just the fact that his name has left my mouth means that my mentions are going to have, someone's going to, there's going to be like a meme of someone pointing at me saying you're a Jew or something like that.

00:52:08.000 You think he's the scapegoat for this issue, though?

00:52:10.000 I mean, he is, but it doesn't matter because there's always going to be, as long as you're not, like, banning people at all for talking, you know, banning people for talking about Israel at all, there's going to be people that are going to say things that are, you know, that are going to be, you know, buck wild, that are going to be, like, you'd expect to find on 4chan and stuff unless you're really policing that.

00:52:29.000 So bringing him back is not going to make the, make Twitter or X any, like, significantly different.

00:52:34.000 So I don't see the problem.

00:52:35.000 What do you think, Matt?

00:52:36.000 I unfortunately have been exposed to Nick Fuentes on random occasions, and I've never found anything to like about him or agree with him on, but I agree with Tim that this is a based move by Elon Musk.

00:52:52.000 Thank God for Elon Musk right now.

00:52:55.000 Until we get a blockchain solution to social media, All of our eggs are in the Elon Musk basket.

00:53:01.000 And I think that's right.

00:53:03.000 Let's community note the hell out of this guy.

00:53:06.000 And let's forget Nick.

00:53:08.000 I mean, whatever he is, he is.

00:53:11.000 But his followers could use a little bit of exposure to some other ideas.

00:53:16.000 Yeah, see, you know, let's talk about the comment where I said I don't believe his logic is sound.

00:53:25.000 There's a basic logic test they do where it's performed in IQ tests where they say something like, Uh, some men are tall.

00:53:34.000 Some tall people play basketball.

00:53:36.000 Therefore, some men play basketball.

00:53:39.000 And it's like, okay, well, yeah, sure, then some, some.

00:53:42.000 Then there will be like, all men are taller than women.

00:53:45.000 All, you know, and like, you know, the logic puzzle, right?

00:53:48.000 So when I say, the logic is that sound, it's a great leap.

00:53:52.000 There is so much information missing in that statement to lead to the conclusion that Jews control America because some protests got shut down by the police, while many others were defended.

00:54:04.000 I certainly think there are interests that are pro-Israel, but here's ultimately what it comes to.

00:54:11.000 And I think the reason why Nick should be allowed back on Twitter, on X, by Elon and why Elon is based, is so that these conversations will emerge.

00:54:20.000 The conversation around, I'll give you one example.

00:54:22.000 You have a lot of people, especially Elad Eliyahu on the show, was making reference to certain comments about Israel, and he says, don't you think that that's anti-Semitic?

00:54:31.000 And I said, criticizing Israel is not anti-Semitic.

00:54:33.000 Israel is a government, like any other country.

00:54:36.000 I don't hate Muslims when I criticize Saudi Arabia for their policy towards Yemen, because they have nothing to do with Qatar or what, like Malaysia.

00:54:43.000 Malaysia is a Muslim, right?

00:54:45.000 And so, I think they have blasphemy laws over there too.

00:54:48.000 I can criticize their government, and if their government adopts a theocratic system of governance, I can criticize that too.

00:54:54.000 The problem is, while you've got people like Elad or Ben or other people saying this thing, The inverse is, many of the fans of Nick, and I don't want to say Nick does this personally because I don't know, but his followers respond to comments about Israel with comments about Jews every single time.

00:55:14.000 Not all of them, I'm saying.

00:55:16.000 Like right now, there will be people in the chat saying, Goy and Shabos, and I'm like, making references to blanket broad Jewish practices because of the government of Israel's actions is exactly what Ben Shapiro and a lot are talking about when they say you are being anti-Semitic.

00:55:33.000 And so if you were to say that because the military-industrial complex, which has billions, hundreds of billions invested in their Middle Eastern outpost of Israel, If you were to take the logic there, because the U.S.

00:55:49.000 is also funding Ukraine much more right now than Israel, they're not coming out and saying Ukraine controls the United States.

00:55:56.000 Certainly there are arguments about the AIPAC and how long it's been around and the strength of their lobby and everything like that.

00:56:02.000 But the issue then becomes people believe that because politicians are upset, Biden in particular, Oh, for people criticizing US military policy and foreign policy, the response is then, Jews, as a whole religious and ethnic group, are in control of the United States.

00:56:23.000 If you said Israel controls the United States, I'd still say you were wrong, but at least that's closer.

00:56:27.000 And you can't, like, very rarely can you separate, not saying that there aren't people that are separate that make the arguments, But if you have people criticizing Israel in a public forum, the people that don't like Jews are going to be right there with them.

00:56:43.000 So being able to delineate between people that are just criticizing Israel as a state and people that don't like Jewish people, it's real hard.

00:56:52.000 Especially when you're dealing with random people on the internet or whatever.

00:56:55.000 It's true of anything, right?

00:56:57.000 Like, any topic that you're like, I'm criticizing this, the people who actually hate, you know.

00:57:01.000 If you were to criticize the Catholic Church, people who hate Catholics to their core are also going to be there, even if you just generally have an objection to the institution.

00:57:10.000 Here's a quick question.

00:57:10.000 You do.

00:57:12.000 You know, when it comes to the issue of Ukraine, and we've been just, like, rabidly anti-funding of Ukraine, no one's accused us of being Ukrainian.

00:57:24.000 No one's been like, oh, or like, or, or being Ukraine phobic or anything like that.

00:57:28.000 The way that people react about the Jews is crazy.

00:57:33.000 Like, I mean, you can have a legitimate conversation about, about Israel and that's fine, but you still are going to attract some people that are going to say some whacked out shit about Jews.

00:57:43.000 It happens.

00:57:44.000 Is there like an equal, I was thinking about this when it comes to like, You know, the argument that because there are so many, because Jewish people are overrepresented in media and stuff, that shows that they control this, that or otherwise, and I'm like, is there a similar argument about, like, Arabic and Muslim control of oil?

00:58:00.000 Because I would argue that oil actually is substantially stronger in terms of control of this planet.

00:58:05.000 Our currency is backed by energy, of which the most dominant form being petroleum and coal.

00:58:12.000 Our coal, our dollars backed by the US Navy, nuclear weapons.

00:58:18.000 Right, but the actual function of the dollar's value is energy.

00:58:22.000 What is the energy output?

00:58:23.000 And so when you print more, the backing of currency, fiat or otherwise, is the energy output.

00:58:29.000 So when I trade money to someone, I'm exchanging that for, at its root, how much energy they can put into a system in exchange for me and the direction of that energy.

00:58:39.000 I'd say that the Middle Eastern nations controlling massive portions of global oil trade, the Houthi rebels, you know, firing, shutting down the Red Sea, threatened, like, half the world's oil trade.

00:58:50.000 Are we sitting here being like, Muslims are controlling America because of oil?

00:58:55.000 Look at Saudi Arabia.

00:58:55.000 Like, look at OPEC.

00:58:57.000 Saudi Arabia doing the weapons deals, and then the U.S.

00:58:59.000 is bombing Yemen on behalf of Saudis who are upset about it.

00:59:01.000 Do we come out and say Saudi Arabia controls the United States?

00:59:04.000 The funny thing is, you've got people posting on Twitter these conspiracy theories that Israel was involved in 9-11, and I'm like, Saudis were involved in 9-11!

00:59:12.000 And Saudis are dictating U.S.

00:59:13.000 policy over oil, and getting us to bomb people on their behalf.

00:59:17.000 Where's the argument that Saudis or Muslims control the United States?

00:59:21.000 People say the reason that there's tension with Iran is because of Israel, and there's some truth to that, but they ignore the fact that there's absolutely a fight between Iran and Saudi Arabia.

00:59:34.000 Iran's Shia Muslim, Saudi Arabia's Sunni.

00:59:37.000 There's all kinds of history between the Persians and the Arabs and stuff.

00:59:41.000 There's all kinds of reasons for Iran and Saudi Arabia to not get along, and if it wasn't for the fact that Israel's there to take the heat, There would still be regional conflict between Iran and other countries because it's not a monolith in the Middle East.

00:59:59.000 The Kurds are fighting.

01:00:00.000 There's still the civil war in Syria.

01:00:03.000 Sure, there's the focus of Israel that everyone's focused on now globally, but it's not like the Middle East is a peaceful area.

01:00:12.000 Now, granted, people are going to say, oh, the U.S.

01:00:13.000 did it, and there might be some some validity to that. But even going back to like, I mean,

01:00:22.000 the last time it'd have to be before the, like to the Ottoman Empire before when it was

01:00:27.000 like fairly at peace, you know?

01:00:29.000 So it's not like Israel's the only tinderbox in the Middle East.

01:00:36.000 There are people who have Israel Derangement Syndrome and they can't see any other context

01:00:42.000 in foreign policy.

01:00:44.000 They can't see any other context in Congress and in government.

01:00:49.000 And it is not too dissimilar to The Woke, where they scream white privilege.

01:00:54.000 There are too many white people in finance.

01:00:56.000 There are too many white people in the military.

01:00:58.000 There are too many white people in movies.

01:00:59.000 There are too many white people in government.

01:01:01.000 White people control this.

01:01:02.000 White people did this.

01:01:03.000 White people did that.

01:01:04.000 And then you have now people on the left and the right who are like, Jews have too much control in the housing market.

01:01:11.000 They're over-represented in movies.

01:01:13.000 They're over-represented in politics.

01:01:14.000 They're over-represented in... And I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, great, great, great.

01:01:17.000 The privilege argument again.

01:01:18.000 I'm not interested.

01:01:19.000 It's so frustrating talking about this.

01:01:21.000 As a libertarian non-interventionist, I have the Ron Paul view on Israel versus Palestine, which is, it's not our business.

01:01:29.000 Agreed.

01:01:30.000 Now, I have personal views.

01:01:32.000 I have lots of friends in Israel, so I I've had some of them on my show and I've had liberty perspectives on both sides, but the thing that happens, and I'm surprised that libertarians fall into this trap, when we talk about Netanyahu or the Israelis or the Palestinians, people immediately go full collectivist, blaming the government of Israel for, or blaming all Jews for the government of Israel.

01:02:01.000 Or saying that every Palestinian baby that's getting killed right now had it coming because they voted for Hamas.

01:02:09.000 Well, that's just dumb.

01:02:10.000 This is about... The baby didn't vote for anybody.

01:02:13.000 They probably didn't.

01:02:14.000 The baby literally did not vote for anybody.

01:02:17.000 Yeah.

01:02:18.000 But you can't always lump this into some sort of collectivist ideology.

01:02:25.000 It's war.

01:02:25.000 Blame the individuals who are responsible for the actions that are causing the war.

01:02:30.000 There's a war going on.

01:02:31.000 I don't care.

01:02:33.000 I literally don't.

01:02:34.000 People are like, you know, I see this video of someone screaming about Gaza, and I'm like, I don't care.

01:02:38.000 Look, human suffering is bad.

01:02:40.000 War is bad.

01:02:41.000 There's war going on.

01:02:42.000 Everybody claims they're right.

01:02:43.000 How about this?

01:02:44.000 Can we have a protest for the Uighur Muslims in China?

01:02:47.000 Because they're getting brutalized by the Chinese government.

01:02:50.000 All the human trafficking victims who are brought across the southern border.

01:02:53.000 Oh, yeah, let's do that.

01:02:54.000 Hey, that one affects us.

01:02:55.000 That's what I care about.

01:02:56.000 That's at least in our backyard, like literally attached to our nation.

01:02:59.000 I don't understand why Americans are only motivated by things that are happening abroad.

01:03:05.000 I think compassion is good, I think the loss of life is awful, but when do we turn inward

01:03:10.000 and say, hey, we have a lot of problems internally and we should start prioritizing them before

01:03:14.000 we start intervening on every side of this conflict, by the way.

01:03:18.000 It's possible that there's a military-industrial complex that propagandizes this and makes us scared.

01:03:24.000 Matt will definitely agree with me on this.

01:03:28.000 If we're actually going to be focused on serious problems and be America first, I said it last night and I'm going to say it again.

01:03:35.000 We have to focus on unfunded liabilities, focus on Medicare and Medicaid, focus on all that stuff because the dollar is going to be devalued like mad.

01:03:46.000 If you think the inflation that we're seeing now is a big deal, it's going to make the inflation that we've had in the past couple of years look like child's play and that also will destabilize the whole world.

01:03:59.000 If the US dollar collapses, the problems that will arise from an unmanaged de-dollarization of the whole world cannot be overstated.

01:04:12.000 So if you're worried about America, you need to focus on getting in touch with your representatives and making sure they know that you want them to do something about the unfunded liabilities and the national debt.

01:04:23.000 The single biggest threat to national security To American way of life, fill in the blank, whatever it is you care about, you should care about that.

01:04:32.000 Please, please go on more.

01:04:34.000 Well, why do you think people don't take it seriously?

01:04:37.000 It's an abstract idea like the destruction of the currency and like I was talking, Thomas Massey was on my show just the other night and we're talking about there's a bill that would seize Russian assets to help fund the war in Ukraine.

01:04:54.000 I forget what it's called.

01:04:56.000 And he's like, you realize that Russia buys a lot of U.S.

01:04:59.000 debt.

01:05:00.000 And China buys a lot of U.S.

01:05:01.000 debt.

01:05:02.000 And if the new precedent is foreign countries that buy U.S.

01:05:05.000 debt, we can seize your stuff.

01:05:08.000 That combined with the payments on the debt, that combined with massive monetization of all this money we're sending overseas, this is how empires die.

01:05:21.000 And nobody seems to care because it's an abstraction, right?

01:05:24.000 And I think Americans don't understand debt themselves.

01:05:27.000 I mean, they struggle with mortgages, credit card debt, you know, look at how we got to student loan debt.

01:05:32.000 I think the concept of debt is very difficult for Americans to understand on the personal financial level.

01:05:37.000 I can't imagine it being applied to the federal financial level.

01:05:40.000 What they do understand is that their dollars can't fill their grocery cart anymore.

01:05:44.000 And it's the same problem, but it's personalized.

01:05:47.000 And I think that's why Trump can win.

01:05:50.000 Because Joe Biden is just, the economy's...

01:05:56.000 Awful on a very personal, tangible level.

01:05:58.000 Yeah.

01:05:58.000 Well, let's jump to the story.

01:06:00.000 Let me say one more thing real quick.

01:06:02.000 For everyone listening at home, when you hear politicians talking about mandatory spending, that's what they're talking about.

01:06:08.000 So a lot of times they'll use phrases and terms that people aren't familiar with.

01:06:12.000 When they're talking about the unfunded liabilities, when they say mandatory spending, that's the stuff they're talking about.

01:06:19.000 You have to be aware of the terminology so you know what they're talking about.

01:06:25.000 That is the thing that will literally kill America.

01:06:28.000 You want to go and stuff your basement full of food?

01:06:32.000 This is what you're actually stuffing your basement full of food because of.

01:06:37.000 Because this is the biggest threat to the U.S.

01:06:39.000 Let's jump to this next story about Trump.

01:06:41.000 From Mediaite, oh this one was good, I apologize for this update.

01:06:47.000 CNN's Jake Tapper reports on Michael Cohen's, we'll say this in a second, Michael Cohen's tweets during the Trump gag order hearing.

01:06:54.000 The gist of the news is that Michael Cohen has been going on TikTok and social media disparaging Donald Trump to an extreme degree and his campaign.

01:07:02.000 To the point where now Donald Trump is being held, he's having another contempt hearing for gag order violations, but even CNN is saying that Trump has credibility because Michael Cohen, and earmuffs for your children, ladies and gentlemen, Michael Cohen referred to Donald Trump as Von Schitzenpanz, and Jake Tapper apologized before reading it.

01:07:23.000 Let me just play this quick segment for you guys.

01:07:26.000 Yeah.

01:07:27.000 Generally speaking, if Mr. Trump were not running for president of the United States, this would be pretty open and shut.

01:07:33.000 Who cares?

01:07:34.000 You just have to take it.

01:07:35.000 But there is an argument here that Donald Trump's running for president and his First Amendment rights, when it comes to responding to attacks, need to be respected.

01:07:35.000 Right.

01:07:43.000 Absolutely, and this is partly why they are hammering these Michael Cohen points so aggressively.

01:07:48.000 Because of the fact that these are probably, of the four arguments, the strongest ones that the Trump team has.

01:07:53.000 It's someone who is, in some measure, going back and forth with the former president.

01:07:58.000 Okay, I apologize for this update ahead of time.

01:08:01.000 Oh boy.

01:08:02.000 But Blanche, Todd Blanche, the Trump attorney, is specifically reading a post that Michael Cohen made on Twitter on April 22nd, in which he refers to Donald Trump as Von Schitzenpants.

01:08:15.000 That is just a factual record that I am bringing before you.

01:08:20.000 This is in the court transcript.

01:08:21.000 Von Schitzenpants.

01:08:23.000 Blanche also said there are repeated attacks on Trump and his candidacy on Cohen's podcast and TikTok account.

01:08:29.000 Dana Bash, I know you want to weigh in on Von Schitzenpants.

01:08:32.000 I think you did it on behalf of all of us.

01:08:34.000 You've taken care of it for all of us.

01:08:35.000 Just for the record, I have been calling it Von Poops in Pants for weeks now, but now

01:08:39.000 it's a part of the official transcript.

01:08:42.000 I do think that when it comes to just the raw politics of this, the argument that Donald

01:08:49.000 Trump is making out in the world, not just when he comes into court and when he leaves

01:08:54.000 court, but when he's on social media, when he's at his rallies about, I'm gagged, I can't

01:08:59.000 speak.

01:09:00.000 When you look at this, which we should say, he can speak about the judge.

01:09:04.000 He can speak broadly about a lot of things.

01:09:07.000 It's very narrow what the gag order is about.

01:09:09.000 But it does include Michael Cohen because Michael Cohen will be a witness.

01:09:13.000 And when Michael Cohen makes very clearly political statements against Donald Trump, it gives Donald Trump a much more credible political argument saying, this is ridiculous that I can't speak.

01:09:26.000 Blanche just showed articles quoting Cohen, quote, talking extensively about Trump's presidential campaign.

01:09:32.000 When, when CNN is forced to defend Donald Trump, it's not looking good for these, uh, these Democrats in this court case.

01:09:39.000 Yeah, it's interesting because they start off by being like, well, none of this would matter if he wasn't running for president.

01:09:44.000 And you're like, well, the whole reason he's on trial is because he's running for president.

01:09:48.000 The audacity of this man.

01:09:50.000 The judge in this case did say when he issued the fine the other day, I'm trying to remember the exact terminology, but effectively, the gag order is not supposed to be a sword and shield for Trump's detractors, right?

01:10:02.000 Like, he acknowledged that this was being used as an opportunity, I think both by Soriano and definitely by Cohen, Truthful.

01:10:08.000 throw punches at Trump when Trump is restricted on how he's allowed to publicly defend himself.

01:10:14.000 And again, I find this to be a really interesting case, sort of in a nuanced way, because some

01:10:19.000 of it is, you know, he's retweeting posts.

01:10:21.000 So is that actually commenting on it?

01:10:23.000 Other ones he's, you know, or whatever the Trump's truth, he's trumpeting, he's re quote

01:10:27.000 trumpeting these things and truth alter them.

01:10:30.000 That's lame.

01:10:32.000 And so the context of which we're having to examine a gag order with the nuances of social

01:10:38.000 media is fascinating.

01:10:39.000 But again, this, this is not a great look for anyone who is anti Trump when you're like

01:10:45.000 this, this guy is actually making us all look like idiots.

01:10:49.000 Shout out to Michael Cohen.

01:10:52.000 I don't have anything.

01:10:53.000 I have nothing to add.

01:10:54.000 Like it's all just garbage.

01:10:55.000 Like Michael Cohen talking smack about Donald Trump has been the same thing forever.

01:11:01.000 The fact that there's a gag order on Trump is ridiculous.

01:11:05.000 This is all just a political hit job.

01:11:07.000 It's just the whole thing is just garbage.

01:11:10.000 I want to see should gag orders be applied to retweets, litigated all the way through to court.

01:11:16.000 I think this is fascinating.

01:11:18.000 It's all election interference.

01:11:19.000 And the fact that we have to entertain this, and we have to entertain this process.

01:11:25.000 It is clearly...

01:11:29.000 I don't want the federal government to step in or anything like that, but it is really frustrating that there is no authority.

01:11:36.000 You can be like, look, someone has to real has to come in and be adults because it's clearly not, you know, clearly they're not behaving like adults are not behaving like It all feels very Venezuelan to me.

01:11:54.000 I haven't followed this as closely as you guys have because I just dismiss it as that.

01:11:59.000 This is just the politicization of the judicial process.

01:12:04.000 But I have a theory.

01:12:06.000 Some people believe that Trump lost the re-election because of mean tweets.

01:12:11.000 So could this gag order actually guarantee a landslide?

01:12:15.000 I don't think Trump lost because of mean tweets.

01:12:17.000 I think it's because Republicans were sitting around being like, gee gosh, Willikers, I think we're going to win this year debate.

01:12:23.000 And then the other Republican was like, if we keep telling the American people how good we are, then we're going to win the debate.

01:12:28.000 And Democrats were sitting there going, can we just get people to put their names on a piece of paper?

01:12:32.000 How many of those can we get?

01:12:34.000 Republicans seem to think, and they thought the whole time, I was making the argument too.

01:12:38.000 We all thought that Trump making the argument to the public was going to win him an election.

01:12:43.000 Wow, the economy's doing really well.

01:12:44.000 Gas prices are way down.

01:12:46.000 Donald Trump's coming out here and he's talking about his plans.

01:12:49.000 Makes a lot of sense.

01:12:50.000 I said, his second term agenda looks great.

01:12:54.000 I'm going to vote for him.

01:12:55.000 And Democrats were going, oh, we don't even need a candidate.

01:12:58.000 Biden can just sleep all day.

01:13:00.000 All we gotta do is get a bunch of people to put their names on this paper and then we

01:13:03.000 have more paper than he has and then we win.

01:13:05.000 And then they win.

01:13:07.000 And Trump loses.

01:13:08.000 So if they don't get on board with the real game, which elections are about, they're about

01:13:15.000 getting as many pieces of paper as you can that someone can run through a machine.

01:13:20.000 That's it.

01:13:21.000 Nothing else matters.

01:13:22.000 But can I give a shout out to this other article?

01:13:25.000 Cassandra posted this one.

01:13:28.000 Trump denies sleeping during trial.

01:13:30.000 I simply close my beautiful blue eyes.

01:13:33.000 There is just no one like him.

01:13:34.000 It's so funny.

01:13:37.000 And I was definitely one of those people that was like, well, you know, he's not classically presidential.

01:13:41.000 He's a little gruff, whatever it is.

01:13:42.000 But like, these lines are hilarious.

01:13:45.000 So I make a point to try and listen to like MSNBC and all the mainstream media every day because I'm trying to lower my IQ.

01:13:52.000 No, I'm just kidding.

01:13:53.000 Because I want to know what they're saying.

01:13:54.000 And this idea that Trump is falling asleep in trial is like their big, like the big thing they're sticking to right now.

01:14:00.000 Never mind the fact that they're also admitting the jury is falling asleep, especially when the banker was testifying the other day, like, it's not fun to be in court and sitting and listening to boring stuff, but they are constantly, like, they'll be like, and now joining us is this guy who's been in court all day, and he'll be like, yes, yes, well, I can only see the back of Trump's head, and he doesn't appear to be sleeping, but I've heard that he is sleeping, like, it's so ridiculous, and that tells you, You know, in between these comments on Trump, they're also admitting like, the prosecutors were not able to get Cohen to, or anyone to officially confirm that Trump was the person directing the money.

01:14:35.000 It always stops with Cohen, and then they're sort of like, and people thought maybe Trump.

01:14:39.000 What was the latest quote?

01:14:41.000 It was like, someone testified that Trump was asked about the payment, and he says what payment?

01:14:46.000 Yeah, this is like regularly what happens.

01:14:47.000 It's like, I don't know what you're talking about.

01:14:48.000 They're able to build a case that it links to Cohen, but they are not, from everything I can see, they cannot definitively link Trump to any of this.

01:14:57.000 And every time they'll be like, well, Pecker's the big deal.

01:15:00.000 Well, actually, this next guy is the big deal.

01:15:02.000 Actually, you know, the key witness is this person.

01:15:04.000 And every time someone comes to testify so far, no one has been able to do the thing the prosecution desperately needs to do, which is to link Trump to these payments.

01:15:12.000 They can't.

01:15:12.000 So meanwhile, they're like, so he's falling asleep.

01:15:15.000 Well, I love this because the way the media reports is like what you were saying.

01:15:20.000 They'll be like, here we have John Smith, who was in the courtroom during the trial.

01:15:25.000 What happened?

01:15:26.000 He goes, well, I was sitting in the back and I could only see the back of Trump's head.

01:15:29.000 But after talking with someone who's familiar with how Trump thinks, it was obvious that Donald Trump during this trial was imagining strangling the bailiff.

01:15:36.000 And then they go, oh, wow, Trump's so violent.

01:15:40.000 I got a news alert the other day, I think it was Wall Street Journal, that was like, he's cold, there's no Diet Coke, Trump is miserable in courtroom.

01:15:47.000 And you're like, I think he's actually been through court way more times than you're giving him credit for.

01:15:51.000 Like, yeah, maybe he's saying it's cold there.

01:15:53.000 Maybe it's just unpleasant and not fun.

01:15:55.000 If you're gasping at straws like this, I'm sorry, your case is falling apart.

01:15:59.000 I don't know why Trump, like, okay, so Trump-truthed.

01:16:02.000 Contrary to the fake news media, I don't fall asleep during the crooked DA's witch hunt, especially not today.

01:16:07.000 I simply close my beautiful blue eyes sometimes, listen intensely, and take it all in.

01:16:15.000 I also don't under- if it were me, I'd be like, oh yeah, I was sleeping.

01:16:20.000 See, I like it better that he's just like- Who cares?

01:16:22.000 Like, I don't know, why does it matter?

01:16:24.000 I like it better that he's just seriously meditating on the things that everyone is trying to tell him.

01:16:29.000 Didn't he say he was praying before?

01:16:30.000 The thing is, also Joe Biden falls asleep at all kinds of stuff.

01:16:35.000 Like, people fall asleep when sitting.

01:16:36.000 I'm not that worried about it.

01:16:38.000 It is funny to me that Trump is like, my beautiful blue eyes, because he knows the media is gonna be like, he's such a narcissist!

01:16:44.000 He called his eyes beautiful!

01:16:46.000 I just...

01:16:49.000 There's nobody like him.

01:16:50.000 No, there's not.

01:16:51.000 His Bill Barr zinger is historic.

01:16:53.000 Remember that one when he said, I called Bill Barr overweight, slow, lazy, and lethargic or something?

01:17:02.000 And now thanks to his, I accept his wholehearted endorsement and for this I will be removing lethargic from my statement.

01:17:11.000 He's too good.

01:17:12.000 Have you played your rock opera version of that line?

01:17:16.000 Oh, we struggled to make one that was good enough.

01:17:19.000 No, there was one that I thought was so funny.

01:17:21.000 We were using AI.

01:17:22.000 Sorry for context.

01:17:23.000 Oh, yeah, you're right, you're right.

01:17:25.000 I gave that one to Seamus.

01:17:25.000 Yeah, we never did.

01:17:27.000 I think Seamus is working on a cartoon called The Corrupt Criminal Case of Donald J. Trump using the rock opera we made about Trump's truths.

01:17:35.000 Yeah.

01:17:35.000 This one, we got to turn into a rock opera song.

01:17:39.000 I mean, I think that also endears him.

01:17:41.000 Like, if he lost for mean tweets, which I don't think he did, I think he really wins with people by giving off these, like, nonplussed answers.

01:17:49.000 I'm simply closing my beautiful blue eyes.

01:17:52.000 Let's do this.

01:17:54.000 Let's jump to a completely just off-cycle story that's really interesting, and I talked about it earlier in the day.

01:18:02.000 A lot of people wanted to talk more about it.

01:18:05.000 This is from the Daily Mail, how Baton Rouge School, plagued by racial tensions and violence, drove military veteran to spearhead successful campaign for wealthy white residents to form new city of St.

01:18:15.000 George.

01:18:16.000 The first thing I'd like to do is insult the person who wrote that headline.

01:18:20.000 Because it's overly verbose and doesn't really explain what the story is.

01:18:23.000 The story is massive.

01:18:25.000 Baton Rouge is effectively splitting into two cities over crime.

01:18:30.000 With the wealthier suburb, which is predominantly white, St.

01:18:33.000 George, becoming its own city.

01:18:35.000 And this was as of a couple days ago.

01:18:37.000 The interesting thing is that there are many people arguing that by having this wealthy suburb break off, which is predominantly white, 70%, it is going to harm and leave behind black families.

01:18:47.000 I am shocked that they would make that racist argument.

01:18:52.000 Black families in Baton Rouge don't need the white people to be there in order to succeed.

01:18:55.000 I don't know why they would make that argument.

01:18:57.000 But of course, they're claiming it's racist now that the people who live in this community voted for their own city.

01:19:02.000 So what say you, panel?

01:19:05.000 Matt, how do you feel about this?

01:19:06.000 It's not racist, it's rational.

01:19:09.000 Is it based, in fact?

01:19:11.000 It's very based and there's a movement, I don't know about Louisiana, but in Texas there's a movement to create new free cities that split off from places like Austin.

01:19:23.000 And it's simply about taxes, it's about regulations, it's about zoning, it's about schools, it's about all the things that normal people care about.

01:19:31.000 And my guess is that the Baton Rouge city government is slightly better than Portland, Oregon, but Maybe not good enough if you're paying the taxes.

01:19:42.000 So why wouldn't you vote with your feet?

01:19:44.000 And why wouldn't you start a community that is actually going to care about basics?

01:19:48.000 Like, I want my trash picked up.

01:19:50.000 I would love for my kids not to be transitioned in middle school.

01:19:55.000 And I would love not to get shot.

01:19:56.000 Yeah.

01:19:57.000 Baton Rouge is where there was a big BLM riot and the case is still going on where the police officer then sued the organizer for being like, you created a dangerous situation.

01:20:08.000 There's a similar, there was a similar effort in Atlanta to create, I think it's called Buckhead.

01:20:13.000 And as far as I know, it's sort of, it's been voted on a couple times and it's never gone through.

01:20:17.000 But again, there was this criticism that it's like all the wealthy white residents want to split off.

01:20:22.000 I think that's an oversimplification to scare people against the concept, right?

01:20:27.000 If you're living in an area and you guys are doing pretty well, regardless of race, and you think, hey, this city is being mismanaged, I don't want to sell my house.

01:20:37.000 My house is in the good part.

01:20:38.000 Why don't we split off?

01:20:39.000 That makes sense for me.

01:20:40.000 I think it's sort of arrogant of cities that are being poorly managed to say, well, like, you guys have to go down with our ship.

01:20:46.000 You're not allowed to leave.

01:20:47.000 Otherwise, we'll label you racist.

01:20:47.000 It's not race.

01:20:48.000 It's governance.

01:20:49.000 It's failure of governance.

01:20:50.000 It's a failure to do the basic things that you expect a city government to do.

01:20:54.000 Yeah, I think so for sure.

01:20:55.000 I mean, the thing is, you can't, if they are wealthy people, you can't make them stay, right?

01:21:00.000 Like, even if this failed and they were like, well, you can't.

01:21:03.000 Well, you know, all those people can be like, well, this sucks.

01:21:06.000 We're leaving anyway.

01:21:07.000 Would you rather them move away or would you rather them split off and live next door?

01:21:10.000 I think the state would rather they stay in the state.

01:21:13.000 To the people of Baton Rouge, obviously it's going to matter, but to the people that, you know, that want to leave, It doesn't matter.

01:21:20.000 You cannot, you cannot force people to stay.

01:21:25.000 And the more the state tries to, the more it resembles, you know, what you get when the state tries to make people stay in an area.

01:21:36.000 And that has plenty of historical analogs on all kinds of, you know, different, different, different degrees from, from marginally annoying to, you know, they're going to throw you into, into, you You know, mass graves if you try to leave, so... I wonder if we'll see more and more of this.

01:21:55.000 Again, I think the scare... You're right, it's happening in Texas.

01:21:58.000 Like I said, the Atlanta one is the one I'm most familiar with, but if you can keep them there by labeling them, you know, racist, is that sort of becomes less... Why would you want to live with racists?

01:22:10.000 Why would you want to live with racists?

01:22:11.000 They don't even want to be here.

01:22:12.000 Let them go.

01:22:13.000 But like, as this logic falls apart, Do you think we'll see this more and more in cities that are struggling?

01:22:22.000 I'm sure this is happening in Baton Rouge, but as cities start to destroy their tax base, they start to expand their boundaries and encroach into suburbs that weren't part of their tax base.

01:22:34.000 So part of it is just like it's like economic warfare, like you're not going to do that to us.

01:22:39.000 We're going to separate from you completely.

01:22:42.000 if they would get their house in order, they wouldn't have this problem.

01:22:44.000 Yeah.

01:22:45.000 You've got the state of Jefferson, greater Idaho.

01:22:49.000 You've got a county in Colorado trying to secede from the state.

01:22:53.000 This is actually happening all over the country.

01:22:57.000 And when there is no solution to the people who live there, when they're demanding these things, they don't get it,

01:23:03.000 they move.

01:23:03.000 And now we're seeing geographic hyperpolarization, which is really bad.

01:23:07.000 But you know what's going to happen now here in Baton Rouge, St.

01:23:09.000 George?

01:23:10.000 People who can afford to will move into the wealthy, safe, and secure area of St.

01:23:15.000 George, and the poor people will stay behind, and Baton Rouge will start to fall apart.

01:23:19.000 And 90% of this is, well, no, the two issues, if I understand correctly, the two issues are the schools, And also the crime.

01:23:27.000 So like and there's also there's violence at schools.

01:23:31.000 It really is like if you have an unsafe area where the law enforcement does not take care of the population, the people with means leave that area.

01:23:45.000 That's just the way it is.

01:23:46.000 If you can get out of it, if it's dangerous, and it's the same as whether it's people that are leaving a town because they don't like the school, or refugees from a war-torn country.

01:23:58.000 This is what happens when people are unsafe and they can leave, they get the hell out of Dodge.

01:24:04.000 So this is not some kind of shock and you're only going to see it.

01:24:09.000 The actual solution is to get competent governance.

01:24:13.000 Yeah, you can't really hold order minded people hostage by saying you have to stay here where there's chaos.

01:24:19.000 They're not going to do it.

01:24:20.000 They're going to follow their principles and their values and they want structural order and safety.

01:24:24.000 I wonder if there's actually any kind of solution to the issue of self-segregation.

01:24:31.000 Because what I see from this is, if you don't allow a city like St.

01:24:34.000 George, as we're all mentioning, people move, right?

01:24:37.000 Yeah, well, these wealthy white people are going to go move into wealthy white neighborhoods.

01:24:40.000 They're not going to decide to go move into, like, central Chicago.

01:24:44.000 None of these wealthy families are going to be like, I know, you know, 45th and the red line sounds good.

01:24:49.000 They're not going to do it.

01:24:51.000 They're not going to want to go there.

01:24:52.000 So all that's going to keep happening is more and more self-segregation.

01:24:55.000 But the thing is, you know, I learned this growing up in Chicago, all of the races self-segregate by choice.

01:25:00.000 No one forced them to do it.

01:25:02.000 In the early days, there was something called redlining, which is where the real estate companies would intentionally push black families towards redline housing.

01:25:10.000 They're like, we want to make them all go there because it's a racist housing market.

01:25:14.000 They're concerned about the property values if black families move into white areas or close to them.

01:25:19.000 So they want to control it.

01:25:20.000 That gets made illegal.

01:25:22.000 Guess what happens?

01:25:22.000 Nothing changes.

01:25:24.000 The Hispanic people start moving near Hispanic people, the white people move near white people, and the black people move to live in black communities.

01:25:31.000 Now you've got St.

01:25:31.000 George, but if they were forced to leave, none of those people are going to move to a Mexican neighborhood, or a Honduran neighborhood.

01:25:38.000 None of them are going to move to a black neighborhood.

01:25:40.000 I mean, very rarely.

01:25:42.000 Some may, but for the most part, they don't do it.

01:25:43.000 People just segregate based on race.

01:25:48.000 I don't know what the proposed leftist solution to that is when people choose to do it.

01:25:52.000 Well, sometimes leftists propose segregating based on race.

01:25:55.000 I can't remember which school, but there was a college recently where the African-American student community was saying, well, we want our own dorm.

01:26:02.000 We don't want to have to live somewhere else.

01:26:04.000 So is that racist?

01:26:06.000 Or are we cool with that one?

01:26:07.000 What are we doing here?

01:26:09.000 The left likes it.

01:26:10.000 Well, if they call for it, it's okay.

01:26:12.000 But if you were to be like, hey, I'm not saying it's a race thing, but I don't want to live in a place where I'm scared to send my kids to school because they're going to get beat up and there's all kinds of stuff, then you're racist.

01:26:20.000 To be fair, the left has no real morals and no real ideology.

01:26:24.000 The best example being Lance from the Serfs on this show arguing.

01:26:29.000 That if a man is attracted to a manly woman, he's gay, but then tweeting out that men being attracted to manly women is straight, because it's literally flavor of the month for these people.

01:26:39.000 They have no ideas behind anything they're saying.

01:26:41.000 For people that are making the argument that you were referring to, it's just a vector of attack.

01:26:50.000 Jordan Peterson would refer to it as postmodern because it doesn't actually matter like to them

01:26:56.000 It's just that this is an attack that will will convince people

01:27:01.000 Watching and it's an a vector of attack that will work and so it doesn't they don't really believe it like Tim says it's

01:27:07.000 not Like they have any belief in it what they believe what they?

01:27:11.000 Actually believe is that words have power and that's the postmodern thing

01:27:16.000 So they use, you know, race as a, an effective tool.

01:27:20.000 It's nothing more than an effective tool.

01:27:22.000 That's why it's conditional and it, it's different depending on who's using it and stuff like that because it's all that postmodern garbage.

01:27:29.000 It's also like this, this is a microcosm of, of our two different philosophies.

01:27:35.000 If I'm grossly generalizing, one is centralization.

01:27:39.000 of power and one size fits all and we're going to run the city the way that the ruling party believes in.

01:27:46.000 And I think our side believes in localism. Like if everybody in the Mexican-American community wants to

01:27:54.000 self-gather in that community, I think that's great. Or maybe they want to mix it up. Like,

01:27:59.000 how do we know what a robust culture looks like unless we let people be free enough to decide for

01:28:05.000 themselves? What do they value most?

01:28:08.000 Do they value being with people that that look and sound like them or do they value?

01:28:14.000 Diversity or they just devalue a reasonable tax code that doesn't totally screw you Right.

01:28:19.000 And I think we talk about this a lot, but I think one of the biggest challenges facing America right now is that we don't have a collective understanding of what our values are and what our culture is supposed to be.

01:28:32.000 And so that's why I love regional culture in America.

01:28:35.000 I think it's really interesting that In Louisiana, there's a big Cajun influence, it's a different language, and I would want to preserve those things.

01:28:41.000 But overarching, do we understand what it means to be American as opposed to these regional enclaves?

01:28:47.000 Or, you know, if you're living within an immigrant community that's settled in a specific area, would you be able to both have your, you know, ethnic culture and as well as be able to say like, but being American means this.

01:28:58.000 These are the values that we all agree we want to preserve.

01:29:00.000 Well, we did have a system that allowed for individuality and local culture and a common sense of American identity.

01:29:08.000 I think going back to centralization, intersectionality is a central plan.

01:29:14.000 And it ranks everybody based on somebody's preferences.

01:29:18.000 And it is so fundamentally un-American that it pushes us away from each other.

01:29:23.000 It creates all of these divisions and this distrust amongst different types of Americans.

01:29:28.000 And I think that's what's tearing us apart.

01:29:30.000 I think intersectionality, I mean, this was the big buzzword I remember when I was going through college, like, how great is intersectionality?

01:29:30.000 Yeah.

01:29:36.000 And as you're describing it, I'm like, this sounds awful.

01:29:39.000 This sounds terrible.

01:29:40.000 But it is, again, this idea that You know, we could have a moral and cultural understanding of what order should look like, but there's the opposite side which says, no, we want to be able to change, to continuously rotate the deck as we see fit, and we don't want you to be able to complain about it without being labeled with an ism, so to speak.

01:30:00.000 Thank you so much for agreeing with me.

01:30:00.000 Yes.

01:30:02.000 Affirmation.

01:30:03.000 For Hannah Clare.

01:30:04.000 Thank you.

01:30:05.000 I need that because I'm female, and also I'm a middle child, so it's really important to my ego.

01:30:10.000 Middle child will do that, yeah.

01:30:12.000 Are you a middle child?

01:30:12.000 No.

01:30:13.000 Do you think birth order does make a difference in personality?

01:30:16.000 I'm sorry, this is off topic, but...

01:30:18.000 I don't know about in personality, but in the way that you're raised.

01:30:23.000 If I was the first child, there would have been no second child.

01:30:26.000 Is there a Bill Levante?

01:30:28.000 No, I have a sister.

01:30:29.000 It's Catherine, and she's just about two years older than me.

01:30:32.000 It would have been better if her name was Jill.

01:30:35.000 Yes, maybe.

01:30:36.000 You'd have weird parents.

01:30:38.000 Yeah, I mean, I have a story that I'll tell you off the air about weird names.

01:30:43.000 But anyways.

01:30:44.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:30:45.000 I expect more of this to happen.

01:30:48.000 Leftist ideology and democratic policy is destroying cities.

01:30:52.000 Portland's an example of it.

01:30:53.000 I wouldn't be surprised if a suburb of Portland or something, they start passing laws because they're concerned about what's going on.

01:31:00.000 I think we're already seeing people fleeing.

01:31:03.000 And it's all racist.

01:31:04.000 If you leave, it's racist.

01:31:05.000 If you make your own city and your own laws, it's racist.

01:31:07.000 It's just, you're a racist.

01:31:08.000 You know, you're right.

01:31:10.000 It is only going to continue.

01:31:13.000 And a big part of the reason is because of the narrative that people are fed.

01:31:16.000 And I was harping on this the other day.

01:31:18.000 But the reason that we had all the mess of the Summer of Love and the George Floyd riots was because of the lie fed to the American people for The better part of a decade that the police were killing thousands of black men, innocent black men, innocent unarmed black men.

01:31:34.000 The idea was that the police are killing thousands of innocent unarmed black men every year in America.

01:31:39.000 And that's what people bought.

01:31:41.000 And because of that lie, we had thousands of lives destroyed, you know, tons of, like, just tons of chaos for a whole summer.

01:31:50.000 And with this, like, you have this lie that Rich people don't pay their fair share, and they don't pay any taxes, and they all get out of it, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:32:00.000 And the reason your life is bad is because of the rich people, and the reason that you don't have this is because of the rich people that don't pay their fair share.

01:32:06.000 When the truth is rich people pay all the taxes, the bottom half of the 50% of the country

01:32:13.000 don't pay any taxes, and the people that are freaking out about,

01:32:17.000 that are protesting capitalism and stuff, they're not paying any tax at all, and they never have.

01:32:25.000 And these kinds of narratives that are not true, but permeate through society,

01:32:31.000 have real world effects on the way that people behave.

01:32:34.000 And when you have, there's people that talk about like the inequality that we have,

01:32:39.000 and you don't have a problem with poverty per se, but you have a problem with perceived inequality.

01:32:49.000 If your whole society is poor, poor doesn't matter.

01:32:53.000 But when you've got really rich people and then some poor people, it sucks.

01:32:56.000 But the whole society overall is really Generally wealthy and like we don't have people falling out of society and these the the narrative that we have this terrible society that where where people are constantly falling through cracks and and kills people and blah blah blah that's and that is not true and it's a lie that's permeated a lot of Gen Z and young people and that's part of the reason why you have these protests is because they generally believe the US and our society is bad and it's just not.

01:33:47.000 Let's read, we got TokenBlackGuy who says, howdy people!

01:33:50.000 He's taken over from Clint.

01:33:51.000 Clint is gone.

01:33:53.000 Well, he's now the first super chatter.

01:33:56.000 Oh, here's a good one.

01:33:57.000 The second super chat is Tim is controlled opposition saying if Biden turns on Israel, he's got my vote.

01:34:05.000 What a perfect example of what I was described as Israel derangement syndrome.

01:34:11.000 Let me elaborate.

01:34:12.000 An individual who calls me controlled opposition, who is willing to vote for Joe Biden so long as he turns on Israel, a man who is enforcing DEI policies at the federal level, a man who just invoked new Title IX rules that eliminate protections for women and allow males to compete against females, among other things, providing protections for women who make claims and accusations against men. A guy whose

01:34:35.000 brother gained a bunch of lucrative contracts seemingly in line with the position he had as the

01:34:41.000 vice president. A man whose son was an executive on the board who did drugs and who was

01:34:46.000 cutting out 10% for the big guy.

01:34:48.000 You'd be willing to support one of the most corrupt individuals in US history who is pushing

01:34:55.000 communist garbage in this country so long as he says Israel bad. That, my friends,

01:35:00.000 is exactly Israel derangement syndrome. Shall we read on?

01:35:06.000 CEO of fat girl says howdy people Clint said Clint Clint howdy people Clint she won't stop texting me man get her under control.

01:35:14.000 I am the milk man My milk is delicious, okay?

01:35:17.000 Well, I have no idea what that's about, but... Have you guys been seeing the stuff about avian flu being found in all kinds of milk across the country?

01:35:24.000 Oh, here we go.

01:35:25.000 It's gonna be, like, October.

01:35:27.000 The October surprise is gonna be airborne Ebola or something.

01:35:30.000 Yeah, everyone gets the same.

01:35:31.000 Also, I feel like it's conservatives who drink milk, you know?

01:35:34.000 Like, only lefties drink non-milk.

01:35:37.000 Yeah, but conservatives drink, like, milk from a cow.

01:35:40.000 That's what it's being found in?

01:35:41.000 Like, they're, like... No, I mean, like, people are going to stores and buying... Oh, yeah, like, local milk, as opposed to, like, delivered to a grocery chain.

01:35:47.000 No, but everybody drinks milk because milk's in everything.

01:35:51.000 It's not even about buying a thing of whole milk.

01:35:53.000 It's that your baked goods, your other derivative drinks, your milkshakes, your ice cream.

01:35:59.000 Liberals like ice cream too.

01:36:00.000 Conservatives like ice cream.

01:36:01.000 Everybody eats ice cream.

01:36:02.000 There's a bunch of food recalls right now.

01:36:04.000 This is occasionally something I follow for Scanner just because it's fascinating to me.

01:36:09.000 Because we all know the food that we eat is bad, but also can be so easily like messed up for non-nefarious reasons.

01:36:15.000 Just like, man, it's a delicate shade.

01:36:18.000 All right, Kale says, love to hear cast brew will have canned cold brew in the future.

01:36:22.000 I've been making cold brew with Appalachian Knights at Chronic Golf Plus Games on Hilton Head.

01:36:27.000 It's the best thing about opening shifts.

01:36:29.000 Yeah, it was one of the first things we looked into was doing cans of cold brew, but unless we order massive amounts, which is beyond our warehouse capacity and shipping capacity, We're not able to do it.

01:36:40.000 So the challenge is, you need to produce a certain amount of cans to get the cost low enough, but you need a certain amount of distribution to be able to produce enough, because they don't... I think cold brew lasts for one year, and you don't want to have them sitting around in a warehouse.

01:36:55.000 Then you've got liquid shipping.

01:36:57.000 So it's actually fairly challenging.

01:36:59.000 With our coffee, we roast in small batches.

01:37:03.000 So when you buy a bag of cast brew, you're getting something that was freshly roasted recently in a small batch, and we have a bunch of empty bags, and then when people order, we cycle through, like, roasting a batch and then sending them out, and then roasting a batch.

01:37:15.000 Making cold brew requires making the cans, canning them, printing and everything.

01:37:21.000 If we only do small batch cans, they're like five bucks a piece.

01:37:25.000 We have to sell each can for like $5.

01:37:26.000 And selling like a $30 six pack of, that's pretty brutal.

01:37:31.000 But I mean, if you look at Starbucks cold brew, it is expensive to do canned cold brew, even when you're at mass scale, you know?

01:37:37.000 You have to clarify this for me.

01:37:38.000 Some companies sell the setup to do your own cold brew at home, like just what I think of as a teabag.

01:37:45.000 That would be easier to do than the canned.

01:37:49.000 The idea is like we want to get to the point where you walk into a gas station and you grab a can of cast brew from the shelf, scan the UPC and then crack it open and drink it.

01:37:57.000 Yeah, that'd be cool.

01:37:58.000 Appalachian Nights cold brew canned at the store, that would be a dream come true.

01:38:03.000 I'd have a whole bunch, buy some, go to the skate park.

01:38:03.000 I'd be great.

01:38:06.000 And then it gets real tough when you want to do like the kind that has cream already in it.

01:38:10.000 Now you're getting complicated.

01:38:11.000 Perishables and dairy and oh boy.

01:38:14.000 Particularly if it has Ebola.

01:38:16.000 Yeah.

01:38:17.000 Avian flu or something.

01:38:19.000 Do you pay extra for the avian flavoring?

01:38:20.000 Yeah because you have to make sure that it gets to, that this thing's still active.

01:38:26.000 Let's go!

01:38:27.000 Travis Delaney says, as an OG Kibbe fan, I demand he bring back his infamous sideburns.

01:38:32.000 Tim, pull up a picture to remind everyone of what they're missing.

01:38:34.000 Is there, if I search for Matt Kibbe sideburns?

01:38:36.000 Okay, I have a sideburn issue.

01:38:38.000 So, when I was running FreedomWorks and I was on TV all the time representing the Tea Party, I had these sideburns because I just shaved off all the gray and all that was left was these awesome sideburns.

01:38:52.000 And then Keith Olbermann attacked them.

01:39:02.000 And I said, well, shit, I gotta keep these forever now.

01:39:07.000 As a defiance move.

01:39:08.000 Did you have the sleeve of tattoos in this photo too?

01:39:08.000 Yeah.

01:39:11.000 Or like, how has your aesthetic evolved?

01:39:12.000 I had some.

01:39:13.000 I continue to add to the collection.

01:39:15.000 That's so funny.

01:39:17.000 Alright, TokenBlackEye says, Tim, regarding your earlier segment on Baton Rouge and the new city of St.

01:39:21.000 George, I've lived in Baton Rouge most of my life and unfortunately the crime has become out of hand.

01:39:26.000 Much like Portland or San Francisco, like many of these cities.

01:39:29.000 So don't be surprised if more stuff like this happens.

01:39:31.000 Crime drives poverty.

01:39:32.000 What if you don't, we were always saying like move out of cities, but what if it's not move out of cities, it's just move to the best neighborhood and separate?

01:39:38.000 Just hire, just get better police.

01:39:41.000 Like, if you have a good police force that actually takes care of, like, well, I mean, not only, it takes more than just police because you have to have a DA that'll put people in jail.

01:39:49.000 And a government that's, like, accurately, I mean, this is what I said about Portland, right?

01:39:53.000 They cannot recruit police.

01:39:55.000 They have a budget, they're failing.

01:39:57.000 I gotta push back.

01:39:58.000 I think you need good neighbors, is what you need.

01:40:00.000 You need neighbors that share the values of don't hurt people, don't take their stuff.

01:40:05.000 Because police cannot substitute for a bunch of neighbors that want to hurt you and take your stuff.

01:40:09.000 I agree with that.

01:40:10.000 I do agree with that.

01:40:12.000 Ryan Ain't Lyin' says, huge shout out to my amazing wife, Caitlin, for giving us the best 15th anniversary gift of our second son, little Tucker Finley.

01:40:22.000 I guess we are even more far right now.

01:40:24.000 Well, congratulations on moving further right by having children.

01:40:27.000 You named your kid Tucker Finn?

01:40:29.000 That's super far right.

01:40:33.000 I love when people call and chat in and tell us that they have kids.

01:40:36.000 So exciting.

01:40:38.000 I'm implying that shutting down the protests is wrong, but I don't actually care because the people are begging for it.

01:40:42.000 I am not actually praising the police for going in and shutting down the protests.

01:40:46.000 to the discord too. I think, Jason, I think you're missing the point of what I'm saying.

01:40:52.000 I'm implying that shutting down the protest is wrong, but I don't actually care because

01:40:58.000 the people are begging for it. I am not actually praising the police for going in and shutting

01:41:03.000 down the protests. It is sort of for the for I'll put it this way.

01:41:09.000 When there was a video of a Jewish student being denied entry and the cops would not help him, I am upset the police were not doing anything about it.

01:41:17.000 When the police were called upon and witnessed these people attacking Jewish students, this is what precipitated the violence at UCLA, the police did nothing.

01:41:28.000 When the clashes started, the police came in and broke up the clash and then did nothing.

01:41:33.000 And then finally, the police were called in to get rid of these protest camps.

01:41:38.000 I am saying that sometimes the police are good, some departments are good.

01:41:42.000 Big city departments typically are bad because they're run for political interests by politically appointed individuals, and sheriff departments are typically better because they're elected.

01:41:50.000 But in this instance, my statement about the police is not necessarily a positive one.

01:41:55.000 I wouldn't necessarily call it a negative one.

01:41:56.000 I am saying, the far left wants to live by the sword and now they shall, so when the police come in and give them the governance they asked for, I will laugh about it.

01:42:06.000 But I would defend someone's right to free speech were they not violent communists who physically attack people.

01:42:12.000 If Nick Fuentes showed up at one of these campuses with a megaphone, took no land, claimed no territory, and just stood there bullhorning, I'd say, He's allowed to do it.

01:42:24.000 I mean, if you want to make an argument about the audible nature of a megaphone, and he's got to set it to a certain volume, so be it.

01:42:30.000 I don't care if you're a communist, a Muslim, an anti-Semite, or whatever, you have a right to free speech, but only, in my opinion, if you agree with the right for other people to have free speech back.

01:42:39.000 Meaning, if you... Like, exactly what Elon Musk said.

01:42:42.000 Fuentes is allowed on X, and he should be, and other people can comment on his posts, and they can argue with him online, and they can community note him when he's wrong.

01:42:51.000 And that's what we need.

01:42:52.000 But these violent communists in these universities bar people entry and physically attack them.

01:42:58.000 Funny video I saw.

01:42:59.000 I think it was Crowder that reposted it.

01:43:01.000 It's a guy who made a channel called Totally Tourist.

01:43:04.000 Have you guys seen the video?

01:43:05.000 He's wearing a Hawaiian shirt and like, I don't know what the hat's called, but it's like a round hat.

01:43:11.000 And he's walking around asking people in New York what's the best place to eat in New York.

01:43:15.000 He's a travel vlogger called Totally Tourist.

01:43:17.000 He's a tourist here and he wants to find the best food.

01:43:20.000 And he goes to the protest.

01:43:22.000 And he's like, hey, I'm wondering if you can give me some advice on a good place to eat.

01:43:26.000 And they go, no press.

01:43:27.000 And he's like, I'm not press.

01:43:28.000 I'm a travel vlogger.

01:43:29.000 I'm just trying to find good food.

01:43:30.000 And they're like, press is over there.

01:43:31.000 And then one guy walks up and goes, what do you think about Palestine?

01:43:34.000 And he's like, I don't know anything about it.

01:43:36.000 I think what you guys are doing is great.

01:43:37.000 And then the guy starts getting in his face.

01:43:40.000 And he's like, I don't know.

01:43:41.000 He's like, hey, man, back off.

01:43:42.000 Don't touch my stuff.

01:43:43.000 He's like, I don't know.

01:43:44.000 I think you're doing good.

01:43:45.000 Whatever, man.

01:43:45.000 And the guy insults him and walks off.

01:43:48.000 And I'm like, you see, you see, this is it.

01:43:50.000 A guy's walking around a Hawaiian shirt saying, where can I get some food?

01:43:52.000 And they say, get out, no press.

01:43:55.000 These people don't believe in free speech.

01:43:56.000 I'm not going to defend their free speech.

01:43:57.000 But Jason, shout out to the Discord.

01:44:00.000 If you guys aren't members at TimCast.com, you're missing out because there are pre-shows, there's morning shows, there's after shows.

01:44:05.000 It's people hanging out, networking, and winning a culture war.

01:44:10.000 Let's go.

01:44:12.000 Lee Whitaker says, Hey Tim, VIP on Discord here.

01:44:14.000 I was fired from my 150k per year web dev job last week for not being woke.

01:44:20.000 Can you recommend a good lawyer?

01:44:22.000 Oh man.

01:44:24.000 I mean, America first legal.

01:44:26.000 I don't know the extent to which they take cases like this.

01:44:29.000 I honestly don't know.

01:44:31.000 Um, man, it's tough.

01:44:33.000 Sorry to hear it though, man.

01:44:34.000 That sucks, man.

01:44:35.000 That's crazy.

01:44:35.000 You should go in the Discord and explain.

01:44:36.000 Yeah, I want to hear the rest of the story.

01:44:38.000 Maybe you should call in and tell the story.

01:44:41.000 We'll see if we can set something up and have you talk about what happened.

01:44:46.000 All right.

01:44:47.000 Angry Marsupial says, we lost our 10-year-old pup, Seven, suddenly today.

01:44:52.000 He was the seventh of our clan, joining us a year after Blending Families.

01:44:56.000 He was the glue we all had in common, and my IRL-watching buddy.

01:45:00.000 It's a very lonely tribute to my boy tonight.

01:45:02.000 Sorry to hear it.

01:45:03.000 That's a cute name.

01:45:05.000 Like if your puppy is like the seventh person.

01:45:08.000 There was a sign not too far from here.

01:45:10.000 It said mini golden doodle puppies and the mini word just makes it a no.

01:45:19.000 Yeah.

01:45:19.000 You want a big dog?

01:45:21.000 Well it's not that I want a dog.

01:45:22.000 You know what I mean?

01:45:23.000 Like just like a regular one.

01:45:24.000 These miniature ones, the way I was thinking about it I'm like I don't want a dog that I have to protect. I want a dog

01:45:32.000 that'll protect me. You know, you get like a full-size golden doodle, you get a full-size

01:45:36.000 like poodle, like full poodles are actually hunting dogs. They're super smart. They're based

01:45:41.000 and they will defend you. But like a little miniature, a bird of prey is going to snatch

01:45:47.000 him up.

01:45:47.000 Yeah, especially if you have land, it's not, you know, you'd have to always be with the dog when it's outside.

01:45:52.000 That's a legitimate concern, actually.

01:45:53.000 Yeah, there's gonna be, like, a security camera footage of a bird just swooping down and snatching him and flying away.

01:45:57.000 Have you seen those jackets they make for, like, chihuahuas with, like, spikes sticking out of them to, like, deter birds from picking them up?

01:46:03.000 Geez, if a bird can eat your pet, you have a rodent.

01:46:06.000 That being said, there was a turtle walking around on the driveway earlier today.

01:46:11.000 And Chris found him.

01:46:12.000 And he's like, what do we do?

01:46:13.000 And he's like, holding this turtle that was probably like 15 years old, because it was like, decently big.

01:46:18.000 And I was like, bring him bring him to the pond, I guess.

01:46:20.000 And he's like, I don't know where he was like, what if he was going somewhere important, you know, like, he was late for a meeting.

01:46:24.000 Well, maybe he's got, like, he or she has family or something, you know what I mean?

01:46:28.000 And then it's like, he walks all the way over here to go back to where his eggs are, and we pick him up and then bring him all the way back?

01:46:33.000 Imagine how brutal that would be.

01:46:34.000 This is something I've heard about, uh, if you find, like, a bunch of kittens in the wild, like, if you're walking in the woods, there's a chance that the mom has left them, hidden them, so she can go hunt or whatever, and she's gonna come back.

01:46:43.000 So if you move them, the mom is now unable to find her kittens, and then it's, you know, they have to be with their mom to nurse and learn how to be a cat.

01:46:50.000 This is one of the funniest ones, too.

01:46:51.000 Deer do this?

01:46:53.000 When people will often come across, like, a baby deer, and they'll go, oh no, it's been abandoned!

01:46:58.000 And then they'll take it and, like, do something with it, and it was like, the mom comes back, like, my child is gone.

01:47:03.000 Because the parent will, like, leave the child to go find food or something, and somewhere where the child, like, the baby deer is safe.

01:47:09.000 Right, the people are, like, well-intentioned, but actually kidnapping things that are okay.

01:47:13.000 You ever see the video of the guy throwing the tortoise into the lake?

01:47:16.000 Well, he killed that thing!

01:47:18.000 Yep.

01:47:19.000 Yes.

01:47:20.000 Turtles and tortoises.

01:47:22.000 Central planners.

01:47:22.000 Very different.

01:47:24.000 Bastards.

01:47:27.000 That's really a great example of it, right?

01:47:29.000 The guy throwing a tortoise into a lake is basically these communists being like, trust me to run your government.

01:47:35.000 I love that meme where it's like a picture of a big fat guy who's like, I've never had a real job.

01:47:39.000 I live with my parents.

01:47:41.000 I've not actually read any news and I don't know anything about modern philosophies or industry.

01:47:45.000 And all kinds of mental illness and I'm on all these drugs.

01:47:48.000 And now here's how I would fix the government.

01:47:48.000 Yes, that too.

01:47:51.000 I feel like you're describing a U.S.

01:47:52.000 Senator right now.

01:47:53.000 Probably.

01:47:54.000 From Pennsylvania, maybe.

01:47:56.000 Let's go.

01:47:57.000 Let's grab some more Super Chats.

01:48:00.000 Cody Justin Fannin says, what I can't get past is that Trump didn't do anything in 2020 with the riots raging.

01:48:06.000 I still plan to vote for him, but it's in absence of a better candidate.

01:48:10.000 I wonder if he'll do anything when he wins.

01:48:13.000 I agree.

01:48:13.000 I think Trump has issues on foreign policy, but he did well, in my opinion.

01:48:18.000 Trump had hiring issues and did things poorly in a lot of ways, but what are you going to do?

01:48:24.000 Vote for Joe Biden?

01:48:25.000 Now I still think, and look, this may be sad to say, but Trump is the greatest president of my lifetime.

01:48:31.000 That's it.

01:48:33.000 I've lived through, technically, H.W.

01:48:36.000 Bush, Clinton, W. Bush, Obama, and now Trump.

01:48:42.000 And all of them gave us war.

01:48:45.000 Conflict and crisis.

01:48:46.000 And then Trump was slightly reversing that.

01:48:49.000 So what can I say?

01:48:51.000 He's better than the rest.

01:48:53.000 Certainly far from perfect, but I don't know what you're going to get with your president.

01:48:56.000 I just could never vote for Joe Biden.

01:48:58.000 That's a non-starter for me.

01:49:00.000 What if he came out against Israel?

01:49:02.000 Would you then sacrifice literally all of the important things for this country and let communists take over the United States?

01:49:09.000 That's just so insane.

01:49:11.000 It's wild.

01:49:11.000 The thing is, Joe Biden is just not good.

01:49:15.000 He's just actually bad.

01:49:18.000 You can debate all the other stuff like that.

01:49:20.000 I want a president that doesn't trip up the stairs.

01:49:22.000 If we're going to go into international conflict, I want someone who seems, I don't know, not fragile.

01:49:28.000 Let's see, the text vet says CS gas is what the military uses.

01:49:32.000 If you've seen the videos of the gas chamber from basic training, that's what it is.

01:49:34.000 CS gas is far worse than tear gas.

01:49:37.000 Well, what I can tell you is that in Ferguson, the canister said CS smoke on them.

01:49:41.000 So maybe smoke is a specific term, different from gas where it's got a lower concentration.

01:49:47.000 What I can tell you is, in Brazil, they do not F around.

01:49:51.000 I have been tear gassed quite a bit in the United States.

01:49:55.000 I was tear gassed in Turkey.

01:49:56.000 And let me tell you, tear gassed in the United States is barely tear gassed.

01:50:01.000 It's an irritant.

01:50:01.000 It's in the air.

01:50:02.000 You don't like it.

01:50:03.000 It hurts your eyes.

01:50:05.000 Yeah, yeah, whatever.

01:50:06.000 In Turkey, I'm impressed.

01:50:08.000 This stuff is pretty intense, but it's okay, you can manage through it.

01:50:12.000 Brazil?

01:50:13.000 Brazil was legit.

01:50:15.000 Okay, so, if I get tear gassed in the United States, typically New York does not use tear gas, and my understanding is the way their sewer system is designed, they try to avoid using it almost entirely, because it gets retained or something.

01:50:28.000 It would be bad for everybody else.

01:50:30.000 So they don't use it.

01:50:32.000 There are certain cities that I've been to in the US, Ferguson, for instance,

01:50:34.000 had what was referred to as CS smoke.

01:50:36.000 And it's an irritant and you're like, oh man, that's bad.

01:50:39.000 And that's about it.

01:50:40.000 Your eyes will water a little bit.

01:50:42.000 In Turkey, it was pretty intense.

01:50:44.000 And I was like hard to see and I'm like coughing.

01:50:46.000 I'm like, man, Brazil was such legit.

01:50:50.000 It must've been like military grade or something.

01:50:53.000 You had no choice.

01:50:55.000 When you got hit by this, just snot poured out your nose uncontrollably and your eyes were swollen red with tears pouring down your face.

01:51:03.000 And there's nothing you do about it.

01:51:04.000 There was no manning it up and bearing it.

01:51:06.000 You're just like, wow, I cannot stop the snot pouring out of my face.

01:51:10.000 So I took my sock and jammed it in my mouth so I could breathe.

01:51:13.000 And then someone was like, why didn't you use your hat?

01:51:15.000 And I was like, my hat was covered in tear gas.

01:51:17.000 Yeah, that was like a good question though.

01:51:20.000 But like the only part of like that I had that was small enough to actually try and use as some kind of filter was the sock in my in my shoe.

01:51:27.000 And it helped.

01:51:29.000 That was fun, by the way.

01:51:31.000 It's like it's exhilarating.

01:51:31.000 You know what I mean?

01:51:33.000 But I certainly don't recommend people go in situations where you have to endure stuff like that.

01:51:38.000 I mean, it sounds fun.

01:51:39.000 I mean, it's fun if you, like, Luke and I were doing this, uh, this interview with this guy who, like, worked with the Mexican government special police forces, and, uh, his, like, past career was, like, anti-cartel, super intense, but now he's, like, a special effects guy.

01:51:55.000 He's, like, semi-retired, and so when we were, like, let's talk, he kind of went over the top and he cracked a tear gas thing and threw it at us, and then we're in a small room with tear gas pouring out.

01:52:03.000 We never used the footage.

01:52:04.000 We were like, like, He was like, the idea was like, who could sit there the longest?

01:52:08.000 And we just both got up and we were like, whoa, dude.

01:52:12.000 Tear gassing us in a garage.

01:52:13.000 This footage exists.

01:52:16.000 I don't think it exists anymore.

01:52:17.000 This is 10 years ago.

01:52:18.000 But yeah, Luke and I sat in chairs and he cracked it open.

01:52:20.000 I didn't think he was going to do it.

01:52:21.000 And then he was like, here, look.

01:52:24.000 And I was like, wait, what?

01:52:25.000 And then we both got tear gassed and it was funny.

01:52:27.000 I think Luke got tased too.

01:52:28.000 I think he zapped.

01:52:30.000 Maybe I'm wrong.

01:52:31.000 I don't know.

01:52:31.000 Luke probably remembers better than I do.

01:52:32.000 That explains something.

01:52:34.000 Yeah.

01:52:34.000 That guy was cool, though.

01:52:35.000 Boys are wild.

01:52:36.000 He was like a consultant for movies and special effects, because he had worked with police forces.

01:52:43.000 And it's a much safer job getting away from all that stuff.

01:52:46.000 But he had to wear a mask.

01:52:47.000 It was like a devil mask.

01:52:47.000 He had a cool mask.

01:52:49.000 He's like, I don't want the people that I've locked up to know who I am.

01:52:52.000 And it's like, if we're going to film something.

01:52:54.000 And I was like, OK.

01:52:55.000 Whatever.

01:52:56.000 I was in Miami.

01:52:56.000 That was cool.

01:52:58.000 Let's go.

01:52:58.000 The Mayor of Serious Town says, Tim, I know how badly you want to sell more coffee than Appalachian Nights.

01:53:03.000 A strong product pipeline is important, so I doubled my Appalachian Nights subscription and will do so every month until there's a Houston location.

01:53:12.000 So let's see, if you were doing one...

01:53:14.000 Now you're doing two.

01:53:15.000 Next month, you'll do four.

01:53:17.000 In three months, you'll have eight.

01:53:18.000 In four months, you'll have 16.

01:53:19.000 In five months, you'll have 32.

01:53:21.000 So, uh, let's see.

01:53:23.000 In six months, you'll have 64.

01:53:24.000 I think you're, uh, just gonna be our best customer.

01:53:28.000 I was gonna say, I think you just are the Houston location, then.

01:53:31.000 I think you are the outpost of... Yeah, just give us the address.

01:53:34.000 We'll send people to go buy Appalachian Nights, because I don't think you can drink all that coffee.

01:53:37.000 All right, I'm a coffee snob, so I'm making an order right now, and I'll send notes.

01:53:42.000 So it is a be so fun Appalachian nights. So when we first launched rise with Roberto Jr. It's a light

01:53:50.000 roast breakfast blend. And we put the roaster on it because we were like, this is it people,

01:53:55.000 you know, we're talking to people and they're like, they like like, light roast is kind of

01:53:59.000 the thing everybody drinks. Dark roast is getting popular, but light roast. And then we tried it.

01:54:04.000 And we we basically blended different things together for all these different plans that we

01:54:07.000 were making. And we're like, Okay, this one's good. We'll launch this one with our rooster

01:54:11.000 as our mascot as like our official go to. When we first launched that one was the one we were like,

01:54:15.000 get rise with the Bruno Jr.

01:54:16.000 It's got the rooster on it.

01:54:17.000 And then we have our Dark Rose 2, which is Appalachian Nights.

01:54:20.000 And then, it flipped.

01:54:23.000 Without even, like, all of a sudden we noticed our sales were like triple, double, quadruple.

01:54:27.000 People just keep reordering, choosing Appalachian Nights over everything else.

01:54:31.000 And I was like, oh, we got a good one.

01:54:32.000 So, it's cool.

01:54:34.000 It's like, we got one that was good.

01:54:37.000 So start there.

01:54:37.000 You know?

01:54:39.000 Yeah.

01:54:41.000 Hollywood Catios says, I race a 60 mile an hour riding lawnmower.

01:54:45.000 What?

01:54:46.000 No money needed, but would love to wrap my new 100 mile an hour riding mower with your graphic to spread the word to the fair crowds we race in front of.

01:54:55.000 How do I get official approval?

01:54:58.000 SoCalMowerRacing.net.

01:55:00.000 Okay, immediately Googling that.

01:55:02.000 There's a really simple answer.

01:55:03.000 We used to just say, like, DM Ian or whatever, but he's not here.

01:55:06.000 I would say if you're a member in the Discord, send a message to one of the staff in the Discord.

01:55:12.000 I would love to put a TimCast rap on your riding mower.

01:55:15.000 That sounds awesome.

01:55:16.000 I cannot even believe this is a real thing.

01:55:18.000 I love America.

01:55:19.000 This is great.

01:55:20.000 You ever see the log pulling things they do?

01:55:21.000 Like the tractor pulls or whatever?

01:55:22.000 Yeah!

01:55:22.000 Well, I grew up, like, in rural Connecticut and they had, like, they'll do the logs or they'll have, like, oxen pull stuff.

01:55:28.000 If someone wraps their, like, oxen that's pulling at their county fair in a TimCast thing, I would die.

01:55:33.000 It'd be so funny.

01:55:35.000 It's going to be wild once we get, so while we're building the Cast Brew shop in Martinsburg, the work behind the scenes for more locations around the country is currently underway.

01:55:48.000 So that's still in full swing and that's basically all of the, like whenever you buy Cast Brew, we're not pulling profits or pulling any money out of that.

01:55:54.000 I don't take a salary from the company or anything.

01:55:56.000 I think we only have one employee.

01:55:59.000 And the funding is going towards setting up the location and setting up the other locations.

01:56:04.000 It is going to be absolutely based when we're able to go, like, hey, there's a franchise location in, you know, Dubuque, Iowa, and we've got space there to do the show, and we're going to go do the show there, and we're going to be able to, like, just pop around and do this tour or something to the effect of a mini tour.

01:56:22.000 So that's really cool.

01:56:23.000 Someone super chatted saying they want to open one in Houston.

01:56:25.000 I'm like, imagine if We open this, and then we're able to go and actually do the show live from that location.

01:56:31.000 It'd be absolutely amazing.

01:56:32.000 Super cool stuff.

01:56:33.000 Coming in the future, coming in the future.

01:56:35.000 Polly Puree says, Ian, crying emoji, crying emoji, crying emoji, crying emoji.

01:56:40.000 Ian will be back, I think, next week.

01:56:44.000 He got lost.

01:56:46.000 We wanted to test his perspicacity, so we didn't give him the address.

01:56:51.000 And he's out there somewhere.

01:56:52.000 Probably in the woods.

01:56:53.000 But he'll figure it out.

01:56:54.000 We believe in him.

01:56:57.000 All right, where are we at?

01:57:00.000 Kenneth Hart says, I'm a commercial driver in PDX and spent three hours in traffic.

01:57:04.000 Trust me, there are plenty of cars.

01:57:05.000 The rich guys in the West, West Hills bought all downtown.

01:57:09.000 Boom, drugs criminalization.

01:57:11.000 The city is a blight and it has to be hard rebooted.

01:57:15.000 Well, good luck, sir.

01:57:16.000 Hard reboot sounds very terrifying, even if it is necessary.

01:57:20.000 Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?

01:57:23.000 I love that meme.

01:57:24.000 You ever see the meme where it's V from V for Vendetta wearing the headset?

01:57:28.000 And he's like, your government is doing what?

01:57:29.000 Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?

01:57:33.000 Yep.

01:57:34.000 I wish it would work.

01:57:36.000 Yeah.

01:57:37.000 I gotta be honest, though.

01:57:38.000 I would not plug it back in.

01:57:39.000 I just... We'll figure it out.

01:57:42.000 Have a nice day.

01:57:42.000 Thanks.

01:57:44.000 You know, sometimes you get a computer that's just not working.

01:57:46.000 You just don't.

01:57:47.000 You just unplug it.

01:57:48.000 You go get a new one.

01:57:49.000 You know?

01:57:50.000 Get a new one.

01:57:52.000 We cordon off Portland.

01:57:52.000 We just leave.

01:57:54.000 Let it be there for like 50 years.

01:57:56.000 Come back later when it's overgrown.

01:57:57.000 Or build a wall around it.

01:57:59.000 Well, you know those pictures of old houses in Detroit where you'll walk in and there's actually a tree growing through it?

01:58:05.000 Like, it's sort of being rebooted in a sense.

01:58:09.000 I love this meme.

01:58:10.000 Let me see if I can find it.

01:58:12.000 Yeah, this one was, uh... This is a classic one.

01:58:16.000 Here, look at this.

01:58:17.000 Fake tweet.

01:58:18.000 Donald J. Trump.

01:58:19.000 I'm building a wall around New Mexico, too.

01:58:21.000 I don't eat any New Mexicans.

01:58:23.000 I'm still trying to get rid of the old ones.

01:58:27.000 I wonder who made that up.

01:58:28.000 That was a good one.

01:58:30.000 New Mexicans.

01:58:32.000 Yep.

01:58:33.000 That was a funny one.

01:58:35.000 We'll grab some more Super Chats.

01:58:37.000 We can get a couple more in here.

01:58:38.000 What do we have?

01:58:39.000 Jasonaut says 20-year-olds have parents born in the 70s.

01:58:42.000 That's Gen X. Correct.

01:58:43.000 And 20-year-olds are Gen Z. Millennials are nearing 40 years old.

01:58:48.000 So, Millennials, and so it comes and goes in waves.

01:58:52.000 There are the bulk of Boomers, and the majority of the children of Boomers are Millennials, but there are Boomers who have Gen Z kids, and there are Gen Xers who have Millennial kids as well.

01:59:05.000 Typically, however, Gen Xers have Gen Z kids, and Boomers have Millennial kids.

01:59:13.000 So I think Boomers are fantastic, actually.

01:59:15.000 I think poor old Gen X. They're kind of a lost generation, but not in a bad way.

01:59:19.000 Just that they did some good stuff.

01:59:23.000 It's whatever.

01:59:24.000 Phil's Gen X. He's got some good stuff going on.

01:59:26.000 But for the most part, people are just like, you didn't really rock the boat all that much.

01:59:30.000 You did some good stuff.

01:59:31.000 I think Smashing Pumpkins or Gen X, we like them.

01:59:35.000 I don't know, are there like... Yeah, Gen X did some pretty good stuff.

01:59:38.000 I mean, all the grunge music was all Gen X stuff, you know.

01:59:42.000 Yeah, Creed, were they Gen X?

01:59:43.000 Yeah.

01:59:44.000 Boomers gave us Star Trek The Next Generation, and for that they shall be given a golden trophy for all of time, and be heralded as the greatest generation in the history of mankind.

01:59:53.000 But there are many Boomers who are bad, and they get to be called out.

01:59:56.000 But you've redeemed yourselves, because no matter who you are or where you are, Boomer, just know, it was a Boomer who made Star Trek The Next Generation.

02:00:03.000 Good for you.

02:00:04.000 It was a bunch of them, actually.

02:00:05.000 And that is the best show ever made.

02:00:07.000 Period.

02:00:09.000 It's inspiring.

02:00:10.000 Yeah.

02:00:12.000 Triton 54.

02:00:12.000 All right, here we go.

02:00:13.000 He got the reference.

02:00:14.000 Bad religion.

02:00:15.000 I don't know how to live, but I got a lot of toys.

02:00:17.000 My daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual.

02:00:19.000 My mommy's on Valium, so ineffectual.

02:00:22.000 Ain't life a mystery?

02:00:24.000 21st century digital boy.

02:00:26.000 That's it.

02:00:27.000 Yep.

02:00:28.000 That says it.

02:00:29.000 They nailed it.

02:00:30.000 That was a long time ago, right?

02:00:31.000 When did they write that?

02:00:32.000 Like 2000 or something?

02:00:35.000 Yeah.

02:00:35.000 21st century digital boy.

02:00:36.000 If it wasn't the 90s, it was it was the early 2000s.

02:00:39.000 My daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual.

02:00:42.000 Mommy's on Valium, so ineffectual.

02:00:45.000 Yep.

02:00:46.000 Shannon says, Tim, Gen Z men are conservative, but Gen Z women are queer and more likely to be trans.

02:00:51.000 This is true.

02:00:52.000 But as I've mentioned before, men don't have the same pressures as women.

02:00:57.000 There's apparently like Halle Berry has a video where she's screaming, I'm going through menopause.

02:01:00.000 Did you see that?

02:01:01.000 Yeah, because she was on Congress at the Hill today lobbying for more menopause research.

02:01:06.000 Yeah, like, men don't have this, and so conservative guys, these Gen Z guys are going to be in their 30s, and they're going to be, you know, dating or whatever, and they're going to meet a woman, and she's going to be like, well, you know, I'm progressive.

02:01:18.000 He's going to go, okay, have a nice day.

02:01:20.000 He's going to get up, and she's going to be like, no, wait, why?

02:01:21.000 He's going to be like, I'm not dating a progressive leftist.

02:01:24.000 The guy has no, it's not going to have any pressure to have a family, whereas these women who are in their 30s are literally being told by their doctors, like, well, if you want to have a family, you better do it now.

02:01:34.000 No, I think doctors love them too.

02:01:35.000 Doctors and celebrities are like, well, we'll see.

02:01:38.000 If you spend money with me freezing your eggs, we can pretend this isn't real.

02:01:41.000 Yeah, but that's also the point.

02:01:43.000 The doctor's going to say, well, if you want to have a kid naturally, you better do it now.

02:01:46.000 We can freeze your eggs.

02:01:47.000 And I just think even if it's 1%, 2%, 3% of women, many of them are going to be shifting their political views because they're going to realize that it's rough for them.

02:01:59.000 And I would love to see data on political engagement based on gender.

02:02:03.000 Like I, this is, you know, I know we know that young people tend to look at politics as a social cause.

02:02:09.000 And so there's a certain level of like they're doing it to be viewed as valuable by their peers.

02:02:14.000 But I almost wonder if women are more likely to be less politically engaged than men.

02:02:18.000 We know that viewership for political shows skews towards men.

02:02:21.000 And so like, of the like, woke feminist, you know, Alex Jones is Gen X. Okay, well, Gen X, you got that one.

02:02:27.000 that Gen Z has, like how many of them are actually dedicated cause and how much are

02:02:30.000 like, yeah, I guess, and are actually much more almost independent in a way.

02:02:34.000 All right. So final thought, someone chatted, Alex Jones is Gen X. Okay, well,

02:02:38.000 Gen X, you got that one. I'll give you that one. If you haven't already, would
