Brandon and Joining us tonight is a behind the Scenes with Josh Sider and Alex Stein. They talk about the latest in the Kamala Harris and Donald Trump conspiracy theories, and how they came to be. They also talk about a man who claimed he was trans for five months and was still attacked.
00:00:43.000October Surprise, I guess, they're running this hoax.
00:00:45.000Kamala Harris comes out, gives a press conference where she's like, Donald Trump says he wants generals like Hitler.
00:00:51.000Yeah, the only thing is, it's anonymous sources.
00:00:52.000The conversation allegedly happened a long time ago, and no one believes it actually happened.
00:00:56.000The story is largely debunked by people who are in and around this.
00:01:00.000Staffers who work with Trump said, this conversation never happened.
00:01:02.000And they're trying to besmirch his good name over a fallen soldier whose family is like, this never happened, and we are supporting Donald Trump.
00:01:09.000They're claiming that Trump was grumbling because he was like, did I agree to pay for this funeral?
00:03:30.000For those who don't know, this is a guy who for five months said that he was trans, followed all the rules of gender ideology, and was still attacked and insulted over this.
00:03:38.000We have a behind-the-scenes look at the big reveal with his explanation and another behind-the-scenes explanation.
00:03:45.000Information and video and circumstances, so become a member at TimCast.com to watch that, and that'll be up on Friday, I believe at around 11am, so definitely want to check that out.
00:03:55.000Smash the like button, subscribe to the channel, share the show with everyone you know.
00:03:58.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is Brandon Buckingham.
00:04:04.000I guess you could call me an on-the-ground journalist or just some guy who fucks around with a camera.
00:04:09.000But yeah, lately I've been traveling all across the world and America and filming different communities, people, and sometimes just fucking around and drinking in the streets.
00:04:20.000Yeah, no one's heard from me for a while.
00:04:22.000So, yeah, I was recently involved in a shooting in Chicago where six gunmen hopped out on us at three in the morning and they had switches, emptied their guns.
00:04:39.000Well, I think as my channel is growing, when I link up with rappers or gang members and I do a piece about them, the rival side or the opposing side then paints me as the enemy.
00:04:51.000I don't think I was targeted necessarily, but...
00:04:54.000I remember when Vice had gone down and interviewed a bunch of gangs in Chicago and I straight up told them, I was like, you guys are going to be marked by the rival gangs.
00:05:03.000You're giving cred and visibility exposure to...
00:05:07.000A faction that is at odds with another faction.
00:05:51.000They're not going to believe it anyway.
00:05:52.000But for anybody out there who doesn't like Donald Trump, news organizations used to require three sources if they didn't have direct evidence.
00:05:59.000That means if you were going to try to claim that Trump said that he wanted generals like Hitler had, which is the claim they're making...
00:06:07.000You would need three individuals on the record saying, independently and individually, I was there, here's what happened.
00:06:14.000That way you could say, hey, we got three people.
00:06:16.000Now what they do is they're like, I heard this guy.
00:06:18.000I ain't telling you who it is, by the way, but he claims this thing happened.
00:06:21.000Then when you get an on-the-record dispute, they still run the story.
00:06:25.000Take a look at this from The Atlantic.
00:06:56.000They say as his presidency drew to a close and in the years since, he has become more and more interested in the advantages of dictatorship and the absolute control over the military that he believes it would deliver.
00:07:05.000Quote, I need the kind of generals that Hitler had, Trump said in a private conversation in the White House, according to two people who heard him say this.
00:07:13.000Quote, people who were totally loyal to him that follow orders.
00:07:17.000And then they add in parentheses, quote, this is absolutely false.
00:07:20.000Pfeiffer wrote in an email, President Trump never said this.
00:08:06.000All they do is they gin up their base, but they don't convince anyone.
00:08:11.000Like your average, if you're an undecided voter, you've heard this story a million times in the past 10 years or, you know, eight years or whatever.
00:08:22.000If it wasn't compelling in 2016, 17, 18, then it's not compelling now.
00:08:27.000Especially seeing as the general opinion on Trump has softened to people in the middle.
00:08:35.000So now, this isn't about trying to convince people.
00:08:38.000It's about preparing the landscape for some kind of action should Trump win.
00:08:43.000And I think that this is what you're going to see going until the election because the Harris campaign doesn't think that they can actually convince voters anymore.
00:08:53.000They tried calling Trump racist, and it didn't work, but it did get clicks.
00:08:58.000They then called him the most racist, and it didn't work, but it did get them clicks.
00:09:01.000And then they tried saying, he's almost as bad as Hitler.
00:09:05.000Got clicks, but they got to keep escalating it.
00:09:07.000So eventually got to the point where they said he is Hitler.
00:10:47.000I'm jumping right to 11, but let me tell you why real quick, because I don't want to just leave it there.
00:10:51.000It's because right now, Democrats are leading in early voting, but Republicans have made massive gains.
00:10:59.000Republicans are expected to win on Election Day.
00:11:00.000This means that Democrats and Republicans have two different elections at the same time.
00:11:07.000The idea that you can have a day of election, Republicans are like, on election day, we all go vote.
00:11:11.000And Democrats are like, we can collect votes throughout the month.
00:11:14.000Those are two completely different systems operating in parallel at different times, and then we compare the numbers and see which side got more.
00:11:23.000Republicans recently started participating in absentee and mail-in voting more so, and so they have massive gains now.
00:11:28.000So right now what they're saying is because Republicans are closing the gap in absentee and mail-in, it's expected that Republicans are going to win based on the data we already have from the Democrat version of what an election is.
00:11:38.000However, if there's still only 5 million Republican voters, I mean a hypothetical number, and 2.5 million vote early, 2.5 million will vote on day of.
00:11:47.000So if we're seeing Republicans embrace mail-in and early voting now, it doesn't necessarily mean there will be more votes on Election Day.
00:11:54.000But the reason why I said Civil War is I think it's important people actually consider.
00:11:57.000What I see with what you're saying, Phil, how they're laying out the framework for what comes it's not about the election, it's about what comes after We've talked about in the past that when Trump tries to deport all of these illegal immigrants, they're going to start running photos of buses, of trains, of the military operation, of police, and they're going to juxtapose them with World War II and Holocaust photos and say, see, we told you.
00:12:21.000They're going to use all of this to prime and prep the people who live in Democrat weirdo world who believe these things, despite them being unsourced.
00:12:30.000And then you have the fact that I think it's fair to say Republicans come out and they go election day is November 5th and the Constitution prescribes a single day for voting.
00:12:41.000We're going to vote all month and collect ballots and then turn them in nine days afterwards so you can count them.
00:12:47.000And then 13 days after the election, determine who won.
00:12:49.000Those are two completely different systems.
00:12:52.000Republicans tolerate the Democrats' version of events and then consider their outside of the rules numbers.
00:12:57.000This is also in conjunction with, I believe it was DOD Directive 5240.01, which is allowing the intelligence apparatus to work in conjunction with law enforcement.
00:13:15.000One of the key points, it says, the directive outlines policies for intelligence components support to law enforcement agencies, including potential use of lethal force.
00:13:24.000Now, this is inside the United States, right?
00:13:26.000These are things that are supposed to be prohibited by the Constitution.
00:13:29.000CIA is not supposed to operate in the U.S. But this, the Directive 5240.01 says, It's an internal Department of Defense policy document that details procedures for DOD intelligence components assistance to U.S. law enforcement.
00:13:46.000The directive has undergone revisions with some of the most recent versions published on September 27, 2024.
00:13:53.000Rumors have circulated about a reissued directive allegedly targeting individuals who raise concerns about U.S. government activities.
00:14:18.000The 2016 version of the DOD Manual 5240.01, published on August 8, 2016, focuses on intelligence oversight, ensuring independent monitoring of intelligence activities within the DOD, The 2020 update to the 2007 issuance of the directive and the 2016 manual are mentioned as points of comparison, with some speculating about language differences and potential implications.
00:14:43.000The point is they've authorized the DOD and intelligence apparatus, that would be CIA, working in conjunction with law enforcement.
00:14:54.000That's to target American citizens, which is it's supposed to be off limits.
00:14:59.000But this in conjunction with the stuff that they're saying that Kamala Harris has said today, the ad, the narrative that's being spun, I don't think that it's far fetched to say that they're going to do something should Trump win to prevent him from taking office.
00:15:17.000And honestly, like I said, everybody that's in the podcasting space, everyone that's a dissenting voice, we'll all have targets on our back, too.
00:15:25.000Well, the entire United States is a dissenting voice against government.
00:16:42.000And then after that, if they go ahead and throw him in jail, which I totally believe they will do if Kamala Harris wins.
00:16:49.000And if not, I think that they will try to throw him in jail and say that he didn't win the election or they'll say that he's some kind of threat or something like that.
00:16:58.000And I don't have any kind of evidence or anything, but that's just my gut feeling.
00:18:08.000So what they're doing isn't trying to convince people.
00:18:10.000Like I said, this isn't about getting votes.
00:18:12.000This isn't about convincing the very, very narrow margin or the very few people that are undecided.
00:18:19.000This is about creating a narrative that will justify actions that are illegal, justify actions that would go contrary to the vote should Donald Trump win.
00:18:29.000It's about preparing the landscape for action.
00:18:32.000It's not about convincing anyone of anything.
00:19:23.000You know, I'll be nice because I think he's on the right track, but Cenk Uygur, I don't think he has a mind for this space.
00:19:31.000It is true that no one knows what's going to happen, but Trump supporters absolutely are not sitting here screaming, we've got this one in the bag.
00:19:40.000In fact, despite the polls and Polymark and everything favoring Trump, they're screaming, everyone get out and vote, get everyone to vote because there's going to be some shenanigans.
00:20:15.000So certainly there are elements of both sides that are confident.
00:20:21.000But I think what we're seeing here with the polls, polymarket, is the general view of the public is that Donald Trump and the Republicans are going to win and win bigly, but no one knows for sure I think it's fair to say, if Democrats are claiming they're going to win, it is because they're intentionally ignoring the reality of this.
00:20:42.000So to say it's both sides and it's swinging back and forth and nobody knows is totally wrong.
00:20:47.000But at least someone on the right track.
00:22:04.000I don't know if you guys have really ever studied this, but they appointed a governor general to overthrow this Australian prime minister that was, Go was his name, and he wanted to get out of Vietnam and take away Pine Gap from American sovereignty.
00:22:16.000He wanted, he's like, Australia first, and they're like, no, that can't happen.
00:22:47.000And I think that they're going to, it's just, it's stacked against us.
00:22:51.000I mean, I'd still think go out and vote because Donald Trump did win in 2016, but they didn't feel threatened against him in 2016, whoever they are.
00:22:57.000This strategy, this imperial strategy.
00:22:59.000You know, it'd be really funny or crads.
00:23:00.000It would be really funny if Trump was supposed to win on the merits, but the Democrats, the deep state, was cheating to install Hillary.
00:23:09.000But then the Russians pressed the button turning off their computer so that Trump actually won on the merits.
00:23:15.000And then they were like, oh crap, it was the Russians, but the Russians actually didn't cheat to help Trump.
00:23:32.000I'm saying, wouldn't it be funny if what actually happened is that Trump did win, but Democrats were going to press a button to flip the votes to support Hillary, but then the Russians flipped a button to flip their votes back, so Trump ended up winning normally, and then they were like, how did we not win?
00:24:04.000They overthrew the prime minister in Australia in 1975.
00:24:08.000He wasn't serving the king or whoever's running the show, MI6. I don't know, man.
00:24:14.000I think Trump does represent American sovereignty in the sense he kind of gives like business first, local economics first, and that there's like a global governance scheme that's kind of like trying to position and control the world through economics and military force if they have to.
00:24:43.000The vulnerability of fiat currency, that if they can print as much as they want and bribe people, like bribe countries and buy them.
00:24:51.000Okay, so I understand that the goal for a lot of countries or for the United States is to have people use the dollar, because that props up the dollar and allows them to overspend and stuff like that.
00:25:04.000Do you believe that that is for nefarious intent?
00:25:59.000But that, do you mean, when you say take control, it implies like there's the U.S. trying to direct their economy, is that what you're saying?
00:26:08.000I don't know if it's the U.S., but it's whoever's controlling the monetary.
00:26:25.000They provide money and resources on the surface to foreign countries, and many accuse them of actually being a subversive force.
00:26:34.000For instance, in Ukraine, there are a lot of people that claim USAID was actually the structure by which they implemented the overthrowing of the Yanukovych government to create a more pro-Western government.
00:27:24.000It's the book Confessions of an Economic Hitman.
00:27:25.000What is true, however, is that the IMF offers loans to developing nations, and the simplest version of it I would argue the non-conspiratorial or steelman argument of the IMF is it's a bank that give out loans to developing countries because they believe if we develop in this nation and build businesses, we'll get labor back in kind and they'll pay back the loan.
00:27:44.000But what ends up happening is most of these countries develop massive debt to an international bank they can't pay back and then just become debt-indentured servant vassal states to an international structured whatever you want to call it.
00:27:56.000And then, when you cross the line, they'll kick you out of the SWIFT payment system so your credit cards don't work no more.
00:28:01.000The point that I was trying to get is, like, Ian, is oftentimes you're talking about these things without actually fleshing out the argument you make, and you imply a lot of nefarious things, but I've never really heard you articulate what it is that you find so objectionable.
00:28:19.000Like the other night when you were talking about the emperor, you're like, well, it's not supposed to be, and it's like, well, why not?
00:28:40.000If it wasn't like you were saying earlier about this hitman strategy, like we're going to control your nation one way or another or another, and you get to pick.
00:28:47.000Do you want to be bribed out and just be served to us and pay us back for the rest of your life and owe us interest on all our loans to you?
00:28:54.000Or do you want us to remove you and then take control of your country?
00:28:56.000Or do you want us to invade and take it by force?
00:29:10.000If it's a developing nation that doesn't have a lot of economic activity, right, and they're giving loans to these countries so that way they can develop, they can have a functioning economy or have a more prosperous economy, and it helps the people of the country, why is that bad?
00:29:29.000Well, I mean, if it helps the people of the country, it does a lot of times lift people out of poverty.
00:30:41.000The argument sounds like, when you talk about it, it sounds like you're against the liberal economic order.
00:30:47.000It's like, liberalism is generally good, right?
00:30:50.000And the economic order that has been produced has raised a massive amount of people, billions of people out of poverty.
00:30:57.000So I'm not sure what your argument against it is when it's actually done really great things For billions of human beings.
00:31:06.000Well, one would be the centralization of control.
00:31:09.000That makes me nervous because if crazy people get in control of that system, if there's one system and everybody relies on this one economic order, if crazy people get in there like, we don't like this type of person and we don't like that kind of culture.
00:32:02.000Trump campaign calls out stone cold loser Kamala for continuing to stoke the flames of violence in her brief remarks to reporters.
00:32:10.000So this, of course, is following Kamala Harris's making this ridiculous statement about Trump wanting, you know, generals like Hitler, which has been refuted by people named and on the record and only supported by unnamed nobodies no one's ever heard of.
00:32:22.000We don't know who they're talking about.
00:32:51.000Pennsylvania McDonald's franchise retains security after Trump's visit leads to threats.
00:32:59.000The owner of a Pennsylvania McDonald's that made news over the weekend after Trump went there has retained private security following threats made at location.
00:33:08.000Jim Worthington, a key organizer of Trump's visit to the Pennsylvania delegation, blah, blah, blah, told The Daily Caller that McDonald's has received threatening phone calls and social media messages after the former president's appearance.
00:33:19.000In response, Giacomo Antonio, who had already hired private security ahead of the event, retained their services to protect his employees.
00:33:26.000Jessica Mijo, a Bucks County resident, described the heightened security when she visited the McDonald's.
00:33:31.000We ordered and we sat down, but then we looked to our left and there were several armed guards just sitting there.
00:33:39.000I thought he was checking if we have our insurance or something.
00:33:42.000Then my husband and I are like, these guys are security.
00:33:44.000These guys are really watching and seeing what's going on.
00:33:47.000It was then I made the connection to Trump.
00:33:49.000Despite the threats, Worthington emphasized that the community has overwhelmingly supported the restaurant.
00:33:54.000The community is really embracing it, and a lot of people have come here since Sunday just to patronize the restaurant.
00:34:00.000Now, I don't think it's solely just Kamala Harris that is causing things like this to happen.
00:34:04.000But certainly when she goes and gives a press conference—she's actually doing a town hall later tonight, which we don't care to watch because it's probably going to be painful—empty words where she uses lots of them to say nothing.
00:34:13.000But it is true that as Democrats go on TV over and over again and prime a nation wound up as tight as can be— Eventually, that spring snaps back into the other direction that energy gets released.
00:34:26.000And now you've got a McDonald's having to have private security because of death threats.
00:34:29.000You've got, there's a ton of crazy videos, right?
00:34:41.000Could you imagine you're at home and someone knocks on your door like, for no reason, I just don't like you because you voted for Trump and I'm going to scream in your face.
00:34:49.000And if some random old woman is willing to cross that line of going to a stranger's house to insult them, imagine what someone who's truly crazy is willing to do as they ramp up this rhetoric.
00:35:26.000They say that Republicans are doing this thing and they're going to do that when Democrats are the ones who have a tendency for street-level violence.
00:35:33.000They try and cite January 6th over and over again, despite the fact that it's Democrats that in 2017 ransacked D.C. because Trump got elected.
00:35:41.000Then you have Democrats in May of 2020 setting fire to St.
00:35:45.000John's Church and firebombing the White House.
00:35:47.000And you have consistently with, say, the Summer of Love protests, it is leftists and Democrats.
00:35:54.000It is run-of-the-mill regular folks who vote Democrat who are joining these protests and engaging in extreme degrees of violence.
00:36:00.000sort of like um that that phenomenon of like people that have been abused do the abuse to other people you'd think someone that receives abuse would be like understand how horrible it is worse than anyone else and be the most likely not to do it again but it's the weird cycle of like look it happened to me so i'm going to project it onto others and with with people supporting movements that are perpetuating violence like the pretty brutal burning down of cities and stuff during these riots
00:36:30.000and just kind of like being kind of okay with it you'll see the projection of that outside It's like they're forcing that kind of abusive behavior now outside after they allowed it to happen and the cognitive dissonance of making themselves think it's normal because they don't want to seem like they were a victim or part of a problem.
00:36:49.000That's, I think, a lot of what's going on.
00:36:51.000My concern is, well, I will start by saying, Republicans, what is it, one out of ten instances?
00:36:58.000Is there someone on the right doing something?
00:37:00.000It's just been consistently over the past decade, as far as I've seen, longer than that.
00:37:04.000Longer than a decade since going back to Occupy.
00:37:25.000Tea Party events, they cleaned up after themselves.
00:37:28.000There were all these times that the Tea Party had protests or whatever, and they would always take their trash out with them, and the place was...
00:37:34.000I mean, it wasn't perfect, you know, because not everyone's on board, but it was significantly cleaner than when the left has a protest where they break, like, not only is it a mess, but they smash windows and light cars on fire and stuff.
00:37:47.000The Tea Party guys didn't loot the Gucci stores?
00:37:51.000Yeah, there were little old ladies with little American flags and red shirts and American flag hats, and they're waving them in a lawn in Philadelphia.
00:38:19.000I guess the challenge for people on the right especially is there's no news when you do that.
00:38:24.000And so the left actually wins politically in terrifying cases where, for instance, at Trump's inauguration when they ransacked D.C., they all got arrested and then sued the city, sued the federal government and won a million bucks.
00:38:38.000They had to pay them, the people doing the loot and the ransacking.
00:39:05.000But they were part of a conspiracy to do it.
00:39:06.000They argued that if you show up at one of these rallies wearing black block, which is a hoodie, a mask, jeans, you are doing that to intentionally cover for other people who are going to be engaged in extreme violence.
00:39:19.000And then they they argued to the judge.
00:39:21.000So some random guy who happens to be walking on the street wearing a hoodie and jeans is now part of a criminal conspiracy.
00:39:28.000So a handful of people actually pleaded guilty.
00:39:31.000And then once things started getting pretty hot, like more news, more attention, more protests over the arrests, and more lawyers got involved, everyone started pleading not guilty.
00:39:45.000And then eventually they were forced to drop the charges.
00:39:47.000And then they filed a lawsuit against the city and they won a million bucks.
00:40:27.000And then when people went out for free speech on the right, they had pictures of nurses standing in front of cars with their arms crossed being like, you're spreading disease.
00:40:36.000It's all just patently obvious to everybody.
00:40:39.000And I wonder if why the reason Donald Trump is doing so well is because people are just sick of this.
00:40:47.000I mean, when we read earlier that, oh, Donald Trump said that he wished he had generals like what Hitler had, I was like, you know what, even if he said that in a meeting five years ago, I don't care, dude.
00:41:13.000Even if Donald Trump's sitting there and he's like, I wish I had generals like Hitler, I'd be like, yeah, I literally don't care anymore.
00:41:16.000I am so sick of the media running these lies.
00:41:19.000I am so sick of the far-left violence.
00:41:21.000We had in the 2020 cycle something like a list of 1,000 attacks on Trump supporters.
00:41:26.000You had a Trump supporter, I believe it was in Portland, Aaron Donaldson, got shot twice in the chest by some far-left with the Black Lives Matter tattoo.
00:41:33.000And the Venezuelan gangs taking over hotels, there are real problems happening in the world.
00:41:58.000When it comes to liberal and conservative, I think conservative people, the reason why a lot of it is just sort of peaceful and bland is because they want to conserve the status quo.
00:43:23.000And that's why you have to support Trump.
00:43:24.000It's the only way to oppose the British crown.
00:43:25.000Trump at least was chosen by the people.
00:43:27.000That's one thing I appreciate about his movement is he was chosen by people that believe in him and not some business bureaucracy that put him into power.
00:43:58.000He won against three pretty strong personalities.
00:44:02.000If he hadn't been in the election, it would have been a very intense, tight race between DeSantis, Nikki Haley, and Vivek.
00:44:09.000Yeah, I don't think Nikki Haley could have won.
00:44:11.000I think DeSantis would have won if there was no Trump, because he was ahead in all the prediction markets, too.
00:44:16.000But yeah, you look at the Democratic Party and they've appointed someone without any democratic process.
00:44:22.000I think for that reason alone, we must oppose Kamala Harris.
00:44:26.000She could come out with the greatest policies in the world, and I'd say, no, no, we cannot as a country allow the political appointment by party of our national leader.
00:45:14.000Maybe you'll have it for a generation, and then it'll be taken away from you because the next emperor wants it.
00:45:18.000You offer them absolute power through appointment.
00:45:21.000They have no obligation to give you anything they promised.
00:45:23.000Yeah, we need to respect Democratic-Republicanism.
00:45:25.000See, the thing is, if we reject that, that Kamala Harris was appointed, and we say you have to win at the bare minimum your primaries, We're good to go.
00:46:23.000At a time when you have the zeitgeist, literally at the time, zeitgeist the documentary, you have the community, the culture of political people who are involved in politics saying, yeah, we want Ron Paul.
00:46:54.000For thousands of years, that's how the system worked.
00:46:57.000His kid's going to be your next leader and then his kid and worship my family.
00:47:01.000And we are very fortunate to have this American Revolution in 1776 led by these amazing human beings that put and risked so much for us to be able to choose our leaders in cycles.
00:47:24.000They say Daniel Ashbess, 24, is accused of making online threats against the Republican figures while they were in the East Valley for a political rally last week.
00:47:33.000He was booked into the Tempe City Jail on October 17th, and police were made aware of his threatening messages, sent in response to an automated messaging service for RSVPs to the rally at the local hotel.
00:47:44.000Detectives said that Ashpes admitted sending the messages during an interview.
00:47:51.000AZ Family reports he faces three counts of threatening to cause physical injury to another person and one charge of using a phone to threaten or intimidate.
00:48:00.000I'm curious, where are the stories of the inverse?
00:48:05.000Where are the stories of right-wingers doing things like this?
00:48:07.000I'm sure maybe there's something niche or otherwise, but this stuff happens all the time.
00:48:11.000I am concerned about what comes after this election, considering what we're seeing now.
00:48:46.000Yeah, I'm not, you know, whatever it is.
00:48:48.000Yeah, so it's just, it's usually, you know, CS. I'll tell you a story that Luke told me, but Luke could tell it better because he lived it.
00:48:56.000But this is a story he told me that they were at, I think it was like a G20 protest in, it might have been Pittsburgh.
00:49:01.000And all these protesters are in the middle of a park.
00:49:04.000And so they send a bunch of SWAT cops to line the park.
00:49:07.000And they're all standing there staring into the park.
00:49:58.000Because they were shooting rubber bullets, and I was like, you know, I got a clip of a guy who got a rubber bullet right through the cheek, and I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
00:50:17.000Because it probably had to do with the, I think it was at like, what was it, 1.30 or something when people breached the barricades or breached the building around then?
00:50:26.000They pushed over the little gate thing.
00:50:28.000Yeah, on one side of the building they went and it could be related to that.
00:50:35.000Maybe they realized that giving a tour to the shaman and letting people come in and take selfies with cops was a bad idea and they needed to switch what the narrative was going to be so they started attacking everybody.
00:50:45.000I think a lot about that shaman, Jacob Chansley.
00:51:28.000I mean, I would encourage anyone to get this completely shadow banned to go watch my video of January 6th Street interviews where I was on the ground all day.
00:51:34.000A lot of people were not preaching a hateful message.
00:51:37.000I barely found anyone who was preaching a hateful message.
00:53:28.000That it's worse than January 6th because January 6th is like a legitimate riot and stuff.
00:53:35.000But I don't think that January 6th was even close to the way that it was portrayed because I think the narrative that the left and that the government wanted about January 6th was it's the worst thing obviously they said.
00:53:50.000You know, it's worse than 9-11 or it's as bad as 9-11.
00:53:53.000And they only did that so they could justify using authoritarian powers.
00:54:00.000They could justify saying, oh, we need to put these people in jail.
00:54:04.000And another thing that they did is when they put those people in jail, it was too frightened Americans.
00:54:09.000It was so that way people would be afraid of speaking out.
00:55:47.000Yeah, and he explained, and he believes that it was like a DOD level thing, that the intention at the highest levels was to get people to riot at the Capitol so that they could stage it.
00:55:57.000It's such a basic tactic for a government to be there.
00:55:59.000Made all the bleachers set up outside of the Capitol building?
00:56:02.000Well, because it was a permitted rally.
00:56:24.000There's videos of cops being shoved, and there's that brawl in one entrance to the building, but there's cops taking selfies with people and smiling.
00:56:32.000And so Baker was saying that he believes the intention was not to evacuate the building.
00:56:37.000There was a cop who, of his own volition, ordered the evacuation without orders, and he got in trouble.
00:56:43.000Not for that specifically, but people think that's why.
00:56:46.000He believes that the DOD was hoping a politician would get hurt in some capacity so that they could justify this nationwide crackdown.
00:56:53.000And if you take a look at what they've been doing to J6ers...
00:57:04.000But if there was a politician who got hurt because they didn't evacuate and then these riders stormed in and a senator or a member of Congress got injured, then everyone would be like, well, of course the J6-ers are getting locked up and there's a crackdown.
00:57:16.000These people attacked sitting members of Congress on the day of the vote count.
00:58:21.000That the DOD was aware, wanted it to happen, so they could use it as a justification for crackdown and arrest.
00:58:26.000Yeah, I think the denial of extra police presence kind of indicates an allowance of the process to occur.
00:58:34.000Like, you would for sure, if there was a riot and you were concerned about stopping it at the Capitol, you'd bring a huge police presence, military presence if you need it.
00:58:43.000Well, I mean, there's evidence that Donald Trump was asking for that stuff.
01:00:53.000The incident occurred in February of 96 when a group of three educators from southeast China came to Walt's social studies class at Alliance High School to reportedly study the education system.
01:01:02.000According to a rediscovered Alliance Time Herald story, the Daily Caller News Foundation obtained a study of Chinese government data that showed the delegation included CCP officials who at the time were employed by an institute serving a Chinese espionage agency.
01:01:15.000The matter has sparked further concerns surrounding Governor Waltz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, and has alleged ties to the CCP.
01:01:57.000Well, it's not that kids watch it, it's that people watch in their living rooms with their TV on and their kids are, and they're screaming in the chat, please stop swearing.
01:02:16.000Well, I mean, he thinks that communism is just being neighborly, which is about as ridiculous of a take on communism as you can possibly have.
01:02:27.000But it's not a surprise that he would do something like that, considering the situation with him being in Tiananmen Square.
01:02:33.000And he said that he'd gone to the CCP multiple times, right?
01:03:05.000No, I'm saying, like, someone who has the ambition to take over a country and become a dictator, it seems like a high- Is that how it works in China?
01:03:12.000And I don't know if you know the answer to this.
01:03:13.000Do they, does someone, like, seize control, and now they are?
01:03:17.000Or are they selected by, like, a secret shadow government?
01:03:42.000Well, it's like, if you're a powerful guy and you've got a bunch of buddies and you say, I'm gonna be the chair, you put me in and I'll make it worth your while.
01:04:32.000I mean, every business has a—every business of—I'm not sure what size, but if you're a decent-sized business, you have a representative from the Communist Party in the building, you know, kind of like it used to be with the— Kind of like how we have DEI here.
01:09:48.000What other things did they have going for him other than a good emperor?
01:09:51.000They didn't really have the technology to establish a democratic republic in a lot of ways like we have now.
01:09:56.000It's always made me love China, reading this and thinking about going to Chengdu in the West and seeing the mountains and the temples and history and stuff.
01:10:04.000But man, communism as an economy is just so stifling.
01:10:08.000And the brutality that I've seen and heard about in that country is...
01:10:40.000If it's totalitarian, they're going to be involved with who you can marry.
01:10:44.000Like, the reason China had one child policy, you know, because it's totalitarian, because they were dictating how many children you were allowed to have.
01:10:52.000They dictate whether or not you can have healthcare.
01:10:55.000They dictate literally what you think, which is part of the reason why they control speech.
01:11:00.000If you can control what people are allowed to say, then you can do, to some extent, control what people think and what people are allowed to think.
01:11:10.000That was the whole, you know, in 1984, the reason they wanted to go ahead and go with Newspeak is because they wanted to get rid of the ability to think bad thoughts.
01:11:18.000You need to invent ideas or discover them, however you want to describe it.
01:11:22.000But the idea that there was self-governance or that there could be self-governance Didn't exist until the Founding Fathers, largely.
01:11:30.000I mean, certainly there was, to a degree, democracy, but mostly around the world.
01:11:36.000It was divine mandate or someone who just inherited control.
01:11:40.000And the Founding Fathers, I don't believe it was the first instance of self-governing, but a lot of the ideas that came from this era were developed.
01:11:50.000And so, I mean, if you look at the rise of communism especially, right?
01:11:54.000Communism didn't exist all that long ago.
01:11:57.000It starts to rise in the late 1800s, early 1900s.
01:13:01.000It's been brought before the Supreme Court on more than one occasion.
01:13:05.000And as long as you're not inciting violence, then the First Amendment protects speech, even horrible speech.
01:13:12.000Aren't they passing laws like in universities that if you're found to be anti-Semitic that you could get kicked out of university, or is that just...
01:13:18.000That would be the university deciding that you can't say things, and they'll use hate speech as a reason, but that's not federal law saying you can't say things.
01:13:27.000They'll say, oh, well, you said something hateful, you made other students uncomfortable, etc.
01:13:31.000Yeah, but if these universities receive public funds and they want a police speech, then they should lose public funds.
01:15:12.000I don't know the in-depth situation about Saudi Arabia.
01:15:17.000But they actually do have, like, if you break Islamic law, the police of vice and virtue will, you know, wrap you up and you can go to jail for that.
01:15:26.000I think an antidote to it is to keep saying truth, is to keep, like, using your free speech in a non-adversarial way, just in a very charismatic, loving way.
01:16:03.000Exclusive documents working with Matt Taibbi report on CCD hate documents showing the Labour Party's political front objective is to, quote, kill Musk's Twitter through advertising focus, meaning harass his advertisers.
01:16:36.000Annual priorities, kill Musk's Twitter, advertising focus, trigger EU and UK regulatory action, progress towards change in USA and support for Star.
01:16:45.000They say AI voice launch Friday the 31st of May.
01:16:49.000US policy engagement set up meetings with Klobuchar's team to seek a quote press release endorsement.
01:17:21.000I imagine that it maybe has something to do with a similar situation where the CIA can't actually operate in the United States, so they would go to their foreign counterparts and they would say, hey...
01:17:36.000Look at this person because I can't actually do it.
01:17:39.000And so like a foreign intelligence operative would look into a person in the United States and then give the information back to CIA because they're not actually able to do it.
01:17:48.000Maybe they're getting around some kind of law by having a foreign entity do something here that the federal government isn't allowed to do.
01:17:59.000That's kind of why they set it up, is so, you know, U.S. can't spy on its own people, but they can have England do it, or Australia do it, and then we'll spy on the Australians, because they're not allowed to do it to their, and then we'll trade the data.
01:19:19.000You can buy little windows or little things that you can stick on your phone over the camera and slide it over when you don't want to use it, you know?
01:21:23.000You're working for the U.S. government, and you're in one of these data centers that is stealing it, and you're, there's like, I'm imagining at the NSA, they have just like different rooms for different things, like these are political dissidents, these are pop star stalkers, and then they have like, hell.
01:21:39.000And they're like, the guy who walks out is just like, his hair is all messed up and his eyes are blackened.
01:22:31.000It was based around Tim Ballard and he spent a lot of time reviewing tape, reviewing video of children and it messed, I mean, it messed him up.
01:22:40.000And I've interviewed other people that have worked in that line of work.
01:22:43.000And these are guys that are like seasoned professionals that go in there and come out very with a lot of PTSD, just talking to him about it.
01:22:51.000It's like, but you can never undo that stuff.
01:22:58.000Yeah, well, you know, I guess if we're talking about the U.S. government, though, I wonder about the kind of people who are in those positions.
01:23:04.000If it's like the same people for decades?
01:23:06.000No, if it was like friends with Epstein and Diddy who are in those rooms monitoring the backhaul or something.
01:24:14.000Boring at the time I was telling myself that I'm just it's just menial labor that I just don't but it was like simple It wasn't a lot of work.
01:24:20.000It was just what the work itself was like And then I started seeing articles about like Facebook admins.
01:24:25.000They're like, you know, bro We we we got to delegate this kind of work out to different brains because it's like poison for a human brain It sounds like you had no work-life balance there either.
01:24:35.000It's like 24 7 you have monitoring or thinking about this thing.
01:24:39.000This was what my life was for like years and You ever feel like that about social media, Tim?
01:24:43.000Like it's all-encompassing and it can just drive you crazy and it's always on the clock?
01:24:46.000I think the problem with social media is that it destroyed culture.
01:24:54.000I don't know that I care so much about its ubiquity other than its combination of ubiquity and decentralization, which has just gutted most cultures.
01:25:03.000It's created this short-term attention span where great works are hard to come by.
01:26:33.000So there used to be a thing called skate videos where a company would put out their video and it was like an album dropping where, you know, a team would have like eight or ten writers or whatever.
01:26:42.000And then each person have a part in the video.
01:26:53.000You know, some have tried, and they put the video out on YouTube, but it doesn't work because there's this funny story where a dude did a trick, a really good trick, and then he was like, don't tell anybody I did it, and some little kid was across the street filming on his phone and posted it online, and everyone saw it, and it just...
01:27:10.000The idea was, like, we film all these tricks, put in a video, we sell the video, and it helps the company stay afloat because it's media that people like.
01:27:16.000Internet's gotten rid of all that stuff.
01:30:19.000They loved him so much, after they killed off Tony Stark, they're bringing him back as Doctor Doom!
01:30:22.000So then the movie industry is still making money on sales for tickets and stuff, but the music industry has kind of collapsed in that respect?
01:30:31.000Well, yeah, because there are some services that are like Spotify for movies, but for the most part, they have this...
01:30:38.000And this is probably the way it should be done right now for music, but for movies...
01:30:42.000So right now, I think Spider-Man No Way Home is not available on Disney+.
01:30:47.000If you want to watch it, you've got to buy it on Amazon.
01:30:50.000Because I think it's a Sony movie, so I don't know if it'll ever even be, but it's not a good example.
01:30:53.000But when a movie goes to theaters, after it comes out, it goes to Amazon where you can buy it.
01:30:58.000Then eventually it'll end up on one of these streaming services as like, you know, you pay 15 bucks a month and you get access to movies.
01:31:04.000Netflix used to have movies, they don't anymore.
01:31:18.000I don't know that Spotify should do it because the actual person that made the record, you might want to say, okay, we're going to wait to put it on Spotify.
01:31:27.000Or Spotify might say, you know, maybe they'd say we're not going to take it right away.
01:31:30.000Because if Spotify takes it and puts it on sale, Spotify is going to take a cut of that.
01:31:35.000And I don't know how much they're going to...
01:31:36.000They're going to say they're hosting it, so they're going to say, well, we're going to take a boatload of it.
01:31:42.000They're going to literally charge you for digital space.
01:31:44.000Record companies come up with all kinds of crazy ways to backcharge you, so I imagine Spotify would do the same thing.
01:31:53.000Because it's kind of like the modern record company is Spotify...
01:32:42.000You pay Spotify to get a better spot in the algorithm.
01:32:46.000Yeah, like labels will help you with like playlist seating and things of that nature.
01:32:50.000What you want to do is you want to get your band onto play or your song or whatever onto playlists.
01:32:54.000And as you release music, your position and the algorithm gets better for you essentially.
01:32:59.000So if you put one song out, it's going to do X. Then you wait six weeks or whatever and put another song out, it gets better.
01:33:06.000And you wait another six weeks and you put another song out and it gets better.
01:33:09.000And that's the reason why bands don't put out a record.
01:33:13.000And then have the singles come out after.
01:33:17.000It used to be you'd release a record, your first single would come out, then however long, three months later you put another single out, three months later you put another single out.
01:33:25.000Nowadays you put out a song, then you wait a few weeks, six weeks or whatever, then you put out another song, then another song, then another song, and then another song, and then you put the record out.
01:33:36.000It makes sense, I mean, that you can do that, because the whole putting a record out all at once is just kind of a limitation of the creation of the body of, like, the record itself.
01:33:46.000It's like, I'm not going to make 12 records.
01:33:47.000I'm going to make one with as many on it.
01:34:42.000When you had radio, you would have someone at your label that would be your radio guy that would know the program directors of the radio stations that would play your style of music.
01:34:55.000So there was a guy that used to work for Razor& Tie when we were at Razor& Tie.
01:35:15.000And basically he would just sit there and pester him to promote the program directors to listen to the song and see if they'll go ahead and start testing it to see how it tests at the radio station.
01:35:24.000Or if you have a history with the radio station, they'll just say, yes, the new All That Remains song is coming out.
01:35:35.000So our first, our first, you know, the first songs that we got into the radio, it took convincing because what they want, what radio stations want is they want to build a relationship.
01:35:43.000They want to know if, you know, all that remains is coming to town.
01:35:45.000We want to be able to say, hey, they're going to come to town and it's, you know, blah, blah, blah radio station that's bringing them to town and they're going to come into the studio and they're going to talk on, you know, we're going to do an interview and blah, blah, blah.
01:35:57.000And we're going to be at the show hanging out with the band and stuff.
01:36:01.000And they want to know that you're going to keep putting singles out that they can play.
01:36:07.000You as one of the bands and people will listen to that radio station if they like the band.
01:36:12.000So getting into that kind of group or getting into a radio station is harder.
01:36:17.000But once you get a few songs that they like, then they're like, okay, we will definitely play the new All That Remains song.
01:36:24.000There's a bunch of radio stations that nowadays there aren't as many terrestrial radio stations as there were 10 years ago.
01:36:29.000But there were a lot of radio stations that when we put out a song, they were like, yes, of course, we're going to play the All That Remains song because we've got great history with them.
01:36:36.000We're going to go to Super Chat, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with everyone you know, and become a member at TimKest.com.

01:36:53.000tonight, but for now, we'll grab your Super Chats.
01:36:55.000Legama says, Tim, I was worried you'd call it quits a few days ago when you had Landau on.
01:36:59.000Good to see you still with us, at least for now.
01:37:06.000Giza Moonshadow says, Kamala is close family friend with Lauren, there's an E at the end of it, Powell Jobs, the Atlantic owner, and she is besties with Ghislaine Maxwell.
01:37:15.000This is why she did a press conference on the Hitler hit piece.
01:37:47.000Villainous Visa has been watching since Trump was elected and glad to see you still doing the live show with my favorite professional stick yeller.
01:37:53.000Also got my got hand surgery tomorrow.
01:38:13.000The media will be like, a source close to Nancy Pelosi's office suggests that blah, blah, blah, and the source is a homeless guy in the alley.
01:39:45.000X is coming, but you still got a head start.
01:39:47.000I don't know if X is going to be able to pull it off.
01:39:48.000I know they need a good video searching system.
01:39:50.000No, the issue is that, you know, seven, eight years ago, when we're all producing YouTube videos, YouTube, you could see in the analytics when they just downranked all podcasts.
01:40:00.000It was basically, there were no YouTube podcasts at the time, it was YouTube commentary, and they were like, we don't want this, downrank it.
01:40:08.000Now it's the biggest media and the most lucrative, and YouTube is like, let's make a podcast section.
01:42:14.000Because I used to have a CD, Walkman, that I'd do.
01:42:16.000Dude, before any of that, I had a PDA. It was the Windows PDA, and it had a stylus, and I'd put songs on it, and I'd plug in my headphones, put it in my pocket, and I'd use that.
01:42:39.000And it had a PCI adapter, so you could plug it in, and then it was like this massive thing, and you'd stick an internet card to give it Wi-Fi.
01:42:58.000I remember when I had a candy bar phone, and I worked at O'Hare, and all the dudes from the Philippines had more advanced phones from Asia, and they were showing, like, the huge screens and, like, the games, and I was like, whoa!
01:43:10.000And I looked at him, I was playing Snake.
01:43:21.000And then they told me it had unlimited messaging, so I downloaded AOL Instant Messenger and I was using it, and then they billed me like $8,000.
01:44:07.000Butter Toast 1403 says there's already people saying their printed ballot is stating they didn't select a candidate or it's flipped their vote.
01:44:24.000Mark Clancy says Judge Joe Brown has pointed out the Biden that Biden can grant asylum to all illegals since 2021 and maybe they can become citizens in five years legal to vote midterms.
01:45:09.000And just because it's intended to be for drug enforcement doesn't mean that it couldn't be used for other activities that the government wants to do.
01:45:16.000This is like people that question the government or some ridiculous phrase.
01:45:22.000Peter Gohawk says, this is why we need a federal law for voting.
01:45:26.000Well, like I was saying, the Constitution prescribes a single day for voting, election day, and then Democrats decided they would have election month and election after month.
01:45:34.000So now they're saying that we're not going to have the election results in for 10 to 13 days in Maricopa, and Fox is saying we won't know the results of the election until at least the 9th.
01:46:58.000So, you know, like, obviously they vote to a certain degree, but they largely don't.
01:47:02.000And what some people say is that Christians believe that they only have to go to church and their duty is fulfilled.
01:47:08.000And then it's just like, well, you can't fulfill God's mandate on earth if you don't participate in earthly things.
01:47:14.000But regardless of that, Charlestown is a really good example of they have a Latin mass.
01:47:18.000They had this procession where 2,000 Catholics marched down the street in protest of the things we're seeing culturally.
01:47:28.000And then city council in a West Virginia town is liberal, progressive.
01:47:34.000And I was talking to one of the city council members who was conservative, and he was like, yeah, it's Charlestown passed an ordinance in support of Pride Month.
01:48:00.000Maybe this is the time where they're going to wake up and they're going to go out and vote in bigger numbers, but you'd think Christians would vote.
01:49:06.000Yeah, that's why they watch, I suppose.
01:49:07.000Then we have The Culture War on Friday.
01:49:10.000This Friday we're going to be discussing the fall of empires with Rudyard Lynch, and I don't want to say who else is coming, I don't know if they're confirmed, but we're going to have a mini-discussion and debate on what's going to happen after the election, civil war, etc., in greater depth, which should be shocking and fascinating at the same time.
01:49:28.000Dud Summon says, Ian has no idea about Australian politics.
01:50:49.000You can say that, but it is a market that's necessary, and it doesn't have to be a completely free market.
01:50:55.000That's why China went from being basically objectively, like, abject poverty for the vast majority of its citizens in the 70s to, you know, having a massive, massive economy now.
01:51:08.000All right, let's see what we got here in the old Super Chats.
01:51:36.000I still have about 30,000 subscribers yet, but...
01:51:38.000Yeah, Tim, this guy at the beginning of my YouTube career tried to like, you know, badmouth me and kind of stifle my growth and I squirted him in the face with mayonnaise in the streets of Austin, Texas and it became a bit of a meme and then now I'm about to pass him in subscribers so it's kind of funny, kind of sweet.
01:52:10.000And we sold out once again of the Step on Snack and Find Out boards, which puts us at like, I don't know, 350 boards sold in a month, just on that one.
01:52:18.000And then the boobies sold over two, probably close to 300 already as well.
01:52:24.000Shout out to Sam for his boobies board.
01:52:26.000Everybody loves the blue-footed booby.
01:52:27.000Do you guys know what a blue-footed booby is?
01:52:29.000They are Galapagos birds, I believe, and they have blue feet, and they are not scared of people.
01:54:07.000They're like the friend magnet of animals.
01:54:10.000They're just like all these, you know.
01:54:11.000You ever see those videos where like all the animals are drinking at the watering hole and like the lion is there and the gazelle is there but they're just like, we have a truce.
01:56:20.000So, like, it could be, you need, you can't, your guy is too weak.
01:56:24.000You've got a guy, he's got no strength, and he's fighting a gigantic monster.
01:56:29.000There's no way you can possibly damage him.
01:56:31.000Then you roll a 20, it's a guaranteed success.
01:56:33.000And then the master makes up some weird reason how it works, and it's hilarious.
01:56:37.000You hit him in the eye, his one weak spot that you didn't know about.
01:56:40.000No, but you've got to be more fun than that.
01:56:41.000So it's like, I have a level 1 squire.
01:56:45.000I mean, the squire's not a real roll, but let's say you just started and there's a level 20 dragon.
01:56:49.000You can deal no damage, you don't have enough strength.
01:56:51.000And then you have to be like, you swing your sword and it hits the toe of the dragon, which makes the dragon laugh, and he lifts up his toe and looks at it, but then rolls backward accidentally, flipping down, falling down a hill and then banging his head against a tree and going unconscious.
01:59:42.000Because if you have a full-auto Glock, like I've shot a full-auto Glock, and you can control them, but you're going to have both hands on it, and you're going to be looking down the sights.
01:59:55.000All right, everybody, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to the show, share it with everyone you know, become a member at TimCast.com, because we're going to go in deep detail on this story and more stories that you've got for us, Brandon.
02:00:08.000So I think it'll be really interesting if you guys want to hear what happened in Chicago.
