James O'Keefe is back with a new leak, and this time, it's not a leak, but an undercover interview from a Department of Defense branch chief who says that he is going to resist Donald Trump and Gen. Kelly. Plus, the rise of dark wokeness, Elon Musk leaving Doge, and more.
00:02:28.000James O'Keefe is back with a new leak this time, or not necessarily a leak, but an undercover interview from a Department of Defense branch chief who says that he is going to resist Donald Trump and Hegseth.
00:02:39.000And, oh boy, guys, I think this guy's going to go to jail.
00:02:44.000I don't know for sure, but going on camera, talking it up to people in public about your DOD work at a time when, other big news, Tulsi Gabbard says she has referred leakers for criminal prosecution.
00:02:57.000And we just heard from Secretary Kristi Noem in an interview that I had done with her that she is having DHS polygraph people to weed out corruption.
00:03:07.000Then I see this story from James O'Keefe and I say, James, I think this guy might be investigated for criminal activity.
00:03:14.000Because while he's saying this stuff in public, the question is, what is he doing in private within the DOD to undermine the Trump administration?
00:03:21.000Then we're getting rumors that Elon Musk is leaving Doge.
00:03:25.000Now, some people are saying, yeah, he's literally just leaving.
00:05:44.000We put a lot into the design of the bags.
00:05:45.000I really want to point out this graphing dream for a second, Tim.
00:05:48.000It is low acidity, and I am getting a cut of the profits, full disclosure, but I think it's fantastic.
00:05:53.000If you ever feel like your stomach is a little, its coffee's a little too much, but you still love the caffeine, try a low acidity blend, and this is our lowest acidity at Casper.
00:06:11.000Indeed. All right, my friends, don't forget, also go to TimCast.com, join our Discord server, because the Culture War Live is coming.
00:06:20.000May 3rd, Saturday, I believe it's Saturday night in D.C., and we've got Will Chamberlain and the liberal Pisco Litti will be debating the legal issue of Abrego Garcia, as well as Trump's deportation efforts.
00:07:02.000Brad Skistomis, singer-songwriter for Five Times August, creator of the Juicebox Jukebox, content creator, influencer to some degree on X, all sorts of things.
00:07:15.000That name came from my birthday, needing a band name, August 5th, so I was 18 at the time when I started, and I was like, I can't go by Brad Skistomis, so...
00:07:25.000I was like, August 5th, five times August.
00:09:43.000James O'Keefe here in Arlington, Virginia, in front of the Pentagon, the branch chief inside the Pentagon, saying on hidden camera he's going to resist against Trump and Hegseth.
00:09:55.000Now, since President Trump was elected and assigned Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense, the DOD has faced a number of leaks in the past few months from employees inside the Pentagon.
00:10:06.000There's some type of deep state forces that want to make sure you don't stay there.
00:10:10.000They've come after me from day one, just like they've come after President Trump.
00:10:13.000I mean, I've gotten a fraction of what President Trump got in that first term.
00:10:17.000The Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, has been going on media interviews expressing that there are people within the Pentagon who want to resist the president and hurt the president.
00:10:26.000To rip out the insidious ideologies and not compromise and not back down.
00:10:32.000To reestablish standards and Nicholas Terza, a branch chief within the DOD, expressed dissatisfaction with his new boss, Secretary of Defense Pete Hexeth, claiming he is too young for the job.
00:10:43.000I'm assuming that your boss isn't Pete Hexeth.
00:12:01.000If we think somebody is not on Team America, then, you know, I want to find out if you really understand that you're working for the people of this country.
00:12:19.000And, you know, I would say 10 years ago you could have told me, you know, I would have been skeptical on that and thought, you know, everybody's kind of seeing shadows.
00:12:28.000Boy, if anything has proven to me that it does and that there are people embedded in this government and that there are people that are facilitating crimes and criminal activity.
00:12:40.000And so we're going to make sure that we're doing all we can to clean house and get people out of here that would facilitate something as horrific as that.
00:12:46.000This is actually a really interesting turn of events for me because it was just yesterday that I spoke with Christine Ohm.
00:14:07.000The American people have elected an administration, support the administration, Trump's approval ratings are under the margin of error, and then you simply say, okay, I'm here to do my job for the American people.
00:14:17.000These people are ideologically driven evil individuals who think they matter more than you.
00:14:26.000Civil disobedience is your right as an American, but this isn't a civil thing.
00:14:30.000This guy's working for the military, the Department of Defense, so he's no longer a civilian, and you're not really supposed to disobey your military.
00:14:36.000Let me show you something real quick, Ian.
00:14:38.000I tweeted this earlier, and I think you made a point that Warren's bringing this up.
00:14:43.000The top post on Change My View on Reddit is American conservatism is objectively a dangerous ideology and those associated with it do not deserve a platform.
00:14:51.000Conservatism is undeniably a dangerous ideology.
00:14:55.000It seeks to fundamentally destroy and undermine democracy targets minorities has led to authoritarian regimes.
00:15:01.000At this point, who cares what else they said?
00:15:07.000This individual who thinks conservatives are evil and destroying democracy and leading to authoritarianism has decided that authoritarianism and the end of democracy are the means by which you stop.
00:15:18.000Oh, it's totally staring into the abyss.
00:15:29.000If you've got a guy, and he's in the military, and he's armed, and he's sent on a mission, and they say, this guy right here has kidnapped a bunch of women.
00:16:08.000Carte Blanche, everything this guy's going to do from here on forward.
00:16:11.000No, it means that the polls right now show largely he has general support across the board.
00:16:16.000His approval ratings in aggregate are within the margin of error, or I should say about a point below the margin of error.
00:16:22.000He's sitting in aggregate RCP about minus four, which is, give or take, you know, it's like 20 points higher than where Biden was, or not 20, but 10 points higher.
00:16:32.000So right now, especially on immigration, Trump has the, and that's the principal issue, Trump largely has the favor of the American people.
00:16:39.000But why is it then that these deep state people are undermining these individuals before they've even started their jobs?
00:16:49.000I'm wondering if when this guy says something like, the same guy who tried to overthrow an election, and he's having this one-on-one conversation with this person, if he really means that narrative.
00:17:02.000Because obviously a lot of people don't believe in that narrative.
00:17:06.000Do these people behind the curtain sincerely convince themselves of these narratives and then they have to commit to it even in these settings to keep it going?
00:18:07.000One of the guys, I'm not going to call him out, but he was like, I don't know man, people are going to get real mad at us for something like that.
00:18:11.000And then I was like, why are they allowed to say, be gay, do crime, and we can't say don't be gay?
00:18:17.000This is the world we live in even to this day.
00:18:20.000People are walking on eggshells around these lunatics.
00:18:45.000There are a lot of people that have talked about how if you're a Scientologist and you speak ill of them, then they come and they do bad things to you.
00:18:50.000I don't really know a lot about what they do, but you guys have heard stories like that.
00:19:33.000Maybe. And then later on, like ten years later, they had already depicted Muhammad in the show, but after the Charlie Hebdo incident, they wanted to bring Muhammad back on the show, and Comedy Central would not let them.
00:19:43.000So they censored the whole thing, and then when Stan was doing his monologue about what he learned...
00:19:48.000They just bleeped the whole thing out.
00:19:50.000Didn't they want to put Muhammad in a bear costume and tell people that it was Muhammad in the bear costume?
00:19:56.000They wouldn't allow them to show the bear costume that Muhammad was in.
00:20:15.000They're deranged violent lunatics who will cause you harm and nobody wants to be confrontational.
00:20:19.000And I think people are also trained over the last eight years to keep their mouth shut and not violate the COVID narrative or other things that get you censored offline.
00:20:28.000So there's still a lot of this chilling that people are thawing.
00:20:30.000Do you think it's still thawing or do you think that it's my sense that that's over?
00:20:35.000And there are people that are extremely enthusiastically saying the taboo things nowadays.
00:20:40.000I bet it's just like when water boils, part of that water turns into gas first.
00:20:44.000And then other parts of the water will start to return to gas.
00:20:48.000You're someone that's already slapped it away and you're like, hot.
00:20:51.000But some people are still warming up and getting out of that state of mind.
00:20:55.000Let's jump to this next story from Newsweek.
00:20:56.000Carrying on this train of thought, Tulsi Gabbard says she referred intelligence officials to the DOJ over leaks.
00:21:03.000Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard says she's referred two intelligence community professionals to the DOJ over leaks from the Justice Department.
00:21:09.000She told Fox News Digital on Wednesday that she's planning to refer a third shortly.
00:21:13.000I look forward to working with the DOJ and the FBI to investigate, terminate, and prosecute these criminals.
00:21:42.000Because... With the people like that guy, the branch chief from the DOD that James O'Keefe has just exposed, criminally charging them for the crimes they committed.
00:21:52.000I'm not saying going after whistleblowers.
00:21:54.000I'm saying if somebody is leaking classified information, you criminally charge them and then let all the other weird woke cultists in the deep state know.
00:22:01.000You will go to jail all the same for leaking information.
00:22:05.000It's not just about getting the dude that did the actual, you know, leak the information or whatever.
00:22:10.000It's about making it clear to other people that might decide, oh, I'm going to take on Trump and I'm going to resist, thinking that it's, you know, 2017 or 2018.
00:23:03.000Remember, just because you're not seeing it on the internet doesn't mean it's not happening.
00:23:07.000Small room with a steel table and a low lamp.
00:23:12.000And Dan Bongino's leaning in, talking to Pam Bondi, Cash Patel, Pete Hegseth, and he says, he slides a piece of paper, pictures on it, and he says, these are the guys we're going after.
00:24:39.000And I'm concerned a little bit about the Trump administration's You know, their whole purview, like, what they're going to be able to accomplish, because then the rest of the time they're just worried about...
00:24:46.000It's like they're trying just to put out fires.
00:24:58.000So Trump's toying with, like, we're not going to even have trials for these people.
00:25:02.000Did you know that they don't get trials to begin with?
00:25:06.000Illegal immigrants, do they have to...
00:25:08.000I thought that was like immigration courts, no?
00:25:10.000Immigration court is for people who have visas and came here legally and then are facing an end of their visa or a violation of the terms of their immigration.
00:25:19.000People who come here illegally, like crossing through the border, get what's called expedited removal.
00:25:35.000And trying to create the impression among the American people that trials are a normal thing that happens for all illegal immigrants, which has never been the case.
00:25:41.000The only people who get the Supreme Court has argued specific hearings for those under the Alien Enemies Act because those people are going to a prison and not simply being deported.
00:25:52.000Trump still has full authority to deport anybody under expedited removal processes, which is if ICE determines that you're an illegal immigrant.
00:26:24.000And the Trump admin has actually been dropping charges against some of these individuals because it's easier to deport them if they don't do that.
00:26:30.000The terrorist organization part is secondary.
00:26:32.000If they're illegally immigrants, get them out.
00:26:36.000Put as much pressure on them as you can from as many different ways as you can for either to pick them up, the government can pick them up, or get them to leave.
00:26:46.000Go after the people that are hiring them so that way they can't work.
00:26:50.000Put a couple businesses out of business.
00:26:52.000Because they hired too many illegals, and that'll fix your problem with hiring illegals real quick.
00:26:58.000But it's got to happen that way, because there aren't enough...
00:27:01.000If there has to be a hearing for every single illegal that we want to deport, or that the administration wants to deport, then you're not ever going to deport enough people.
00:27:29.000And the New York Times falsely framed it and manipulated the context.
00:27:32.000And they've got Democrats coming out saying Trump is trying to take criminal trials away from people, as if he's talking about Americans now, because they're scumbag liars.
00:28:20.000Those guys have some of the biggest platforms in conservative media, and they are staunch conservatives.
00:28:25.000I think the narrative of the 90s Democrat is largely because of Trump.
00:28:30.000But if you were to look at the right, the quote-unquote right, and try and figure out what brings them together, how is Jimmy Dore far-right?
00:31:05.000The point I was making is using force and threat, whatever the imagery is, and then calling someone else a pejorative.
00:31:11.000The point I was making before is, if they really thought you were a Nazi for having a Tesla, and they spray-painted the swasta on your car...
00:31:18.000I'm imagining, like, the Nazi walking out of his house being like, hey, what are you doing?
00:31:21.000And they're like, I'm spraying a swastika on your car.
00:32:08.000I think Trump just stopped the war with Iran, too.
00:32:10.000The Nazis weren't really into stopping wars.
00:32:13.000They were really about winning them all and taking as much land as they could.
00:32:17.000Nazis were definitely a, you know, that's a part of fascism is being fairly militaristic.
00:32:24.000This is like, okay, so the reality we're in right now, this United States has been hijacked for 100 years by the global banking order, essentially, 1913 Federal Reserve, and then mass illegal immigration.
00:32:34.000We're in a place where, like, the law paperwork isn't going to solve this problem.
00:32:39.000Unless you want to say gold's worth $60,000 an ounce, which you guys mentioned last night.
00:34:22.000The point is that dude did a lot of stuff, and basically everything he did was unprecedented and unconstitutional.
00:34:27.000Trump, with his wartime power thing, it's – I thought that the cartels were like a foreign terrorist organization, an insurgency in the country, like we should, you know, militarily defend against it if we need to, because they've been attacking us with drugs and human trafficking, fentanyl,
00:34:43.000running kids across the border for sale, and other horrible things.
00:34:47.000I don't know, but this is what I've heard.
00:34:49.000So like, yeah, and the war in Ukraine, technically we're not at war, but you could consider our country at war since we've been funding this war in Ukraine.
00:35:06.000Whatever he does will be precedent for what comes next.
00:35:09.000So if Joe Rogan had this clip from one of his last shows, and he was basically saying, there's a lot of people saying, just round them up, get them all out there, send them all to El Salvador, and it's wrong.
00:35:22.000Because what happens when the next president gets in?
00:35:25.000Joe is right about the fact that we can't just round people up and send them all off without due process, right?
00:35:30.000But I think Joe doesn't understand, one, the due process for illegal immigrants is literally ICE checks your information and then you leave.
00:36:01.000And then you've got for the AEA, which is accusing you of actually being part of a criminal organization, a terrorist organization.
00:36:10.000The Supreme Court says you must have an actual hearing for that.
00:36:12.000So if you want to get an appeal, it has to be you are actually arguing that your legal immigration status is being wrongfully terminated or something.
00:36:20.000But here's the problem with what Joe is saying.
00:36:23.000This idea of the next president is going to do it to you?
00:36:44.000Of the J6s who were charged for obstructing an official proceeding, which I believe was maybe 20% or so or less, That charge was wrong.
00:36:54.000The Supreme Court said you can't charge him with that.
00:36:57.000That's a violation of their due process.
00:36:59.000They were denied access to the surveillance footage from the Capitol.
00:37:02.00041,000 hours was withheld for years with these people sitting in solitary confinement.
00:37:07.000That means every single J6-er had their due process rights violated because they're supposed to have constitutionally access to the evidence.
00:37:16.000And it was denied to them until the Republicans got in and gave the tapes to Tucker Carlson.
00:37:22.000Then they were able to give the evidence.
00:37:24.000So the Biden administration has, the Democrats can and will violate your rights the moment they get power.
00:37:32.000So the question is, what is the Trump administration going to do right now?
00:37:36.000And it looks like they're going after leakers, and I'm hoping Cash and Dan actually do their jobs.
00:37:40.000But let's jump to this next story from Politico.
00:37:43.000Doge loses its biggest advocate as Musk exits Washington.
00:37:50.000Elon Musk claimed that his job in Washington is mostly done, may calm Tesla shareholders, but his departure could snap the Doge of its disruptive energy, even as it continues to make major cuts to the federal workforce.
00:38:01.000In an effort to reassure rattled Tesla shareholders after a bruising first quarter, Musk told investors this week that his round-the-clock involvement in Doge will soon be scaled back to just a day or two per week.
00:40:09.000I gotta say, as much as I do appreciate the tech work that he does, the Doge work that he does, you know, we'll do a compliment sandwich here.
00:41:19.000And also that there's so much animosity between...
00:41:23.000Elon's trans child and Elon, it's not my business or whatever to comment on, but he's spoken very, very critically, or they've both spoken very critically of each other.
00:41:35.000I feel horrible trashing on anything Elon's doing because I'm with you on this, Tim.
00:42:10.000But his kids are actually all pretty great, to be completely honest.
00:42:12.000Yeah. Like, having met them, they're successful, smart, well-rounded.
00:42:16.000So he's done a good job, despite the fact, I will say this, I believe that you should be married once, you should not get divorced, you should have kids, and you work together with your partner.
00:42:25.000I'm not a fan of divorce or multiple baby moms.
00:42:27.000Well, I was thinking about it today in this product, because I listened to you talk more about that on the show that you were like, Death before dishonor, and you pulled up the ring of power.
00:42:53.000You still need a foundation as a kid, though.
00:42:55.000Even if your dad's Elon Musk, you need...
00:42:57.000That foundation to be secure for yourself.
00:43:00.000Otherwise, you have 14, you know, half Elon Musks that didn't have a dad.
00:43:05.000Wouldn't it be like a wild story if Elon's transgender son ended up becoming like a very prominent political leader with millions of followers rivaling the influence of Elon?
00:43:24.000I'm just saying kids without parents turn out to be...
00:43:27.000Generally, have a rougher existence of the world.
00:43:29.000Higher likelihood without a father specifically to be a criminal or drug user.
00:43:33.000That was the point I was making earlier.
00:43:35.000And I don't think we necessarily need more fatherless.
00:43:37.000I mean, in a world where there's no kids and it's a tribe of nine of us, yeah, have as many kids as you possibly can whether you see them again or not.
00:44:24.000Then he goes, if the Earth gets hit by an asteroid or something, humanity is wiped out, so we've got to colonize Mars so we're interplanetary so we can't go extinct.
00:46:18.000The plan is to establish a base on the moon, which is the launching point for the trips to Mars.
00:46:23.000That'd be cool, because we can build a space elevator on the moon first, according to Michael Lane, who runs Liftport, who's been working on a space elevator for 15 years out of NASA.
00:46:31.000He said that the lunar gravity is so much lower that you can actually get a geosynchronous orbital platform up there and get a tether down to the lunar surface.
00:46:40.000And then what happens is, like, here's the moon, here's the Earth, and there's a tether.
00:46:43.000But the tether isn't connected to the Earth.
00:46:45.000So as the moon spins around, there's this gigantic 30-foot-wide cable that just swings at, like, 500 miles an hour, just slamming into everything and just ripping it to shreds and destroying it.
00:48:03.000So we have, like, on Earth, there's a massive tower that goes into space?
00:48:05.000Yeah. Probably, like, I think 60 different elevators all at once.
00:48:09.000So it'd be a huge, like, you know, football field, 10 football field size place in Mexico or something where it's close enough, right at the right position.
00:48:17.000There's areas of Earth where geosynchronicity becomes viable.
00:48:21.000Like, and they're usually just above and below the equator.
00:48:24.000So, like, Mexico would be a good spot.
00:48:27.000That's why we do our launches out of Florida.
00:48:36.000So, we're going to do that on the moon.
00:48:39.000My daughter is going to, I was explaining this to my wife, that one of her homeschooling assignments is going to be one hour of Civilization 4 every day.
00:49:12.000Cringe. Basically, the dark woke videos is literally just them cussing.
00:49:19.000Like, because they don't understand authenticity.
00:49:22.000Quote, Republicans have essentially put Democrats in a respectability prison, says Bavik Lathia, communications consultant and former digital director for the Wisconsin Democratic Party.
00:49:30.000There's an extreme imbalance in strategy that allows Republicans to say stuff that really grabs voters' attention, where we're stuck saying boring pablum.
00:49:38.000I see this as a strategic shift within the Democratic messaging.
00:50:20.000If on the left, you said something more extreme, like we should just cut out all of the trans stuff because it's hurting us politically, they will cancel you.
00:50:29.000This is the problem with the left, not swearing.
00:50:31.000So now you've got all these videos where one woman's screaming, this is bullshit, and she's in Congress saying BS over and over again.
00:51:47.000And on the left, in this other environment, it's like, it's just not okay to have fun right now because everybody's hurting and we need to just suffer with me.
00:51:55.000Bro, you need to get out of that tyrannical mindset.
00:53:02.000Because he's talking about what is true and what is not.
00:53:04.000It's not about whether you're for laissez-faire capitalism or socialism or racial identitarianism or whatever, be it left or right or anti-white or pro-white.
00:53:15.000It's literally, do you march in lockstep with us or not?
00:53:18.000So to be authentic and on the right, you can literally give any opinion so long as your facts are rooted in reality because that's what tethers the right together.
00:53:29.000Oh, yes, Trump did not say very fine people.
00:53:32.000You know, he didn't call Nazis very fine people.
00:54:03.000And it's like, because this is not true.
00:54:05.000Well, that's what I was asking about with that first guy that was on recorded for O'Keefe Media, is when he says what he says about Trump fixing the election, or he's trying to overthrow the election, he's taking a narrative that was all agreed upon on that side.
00:54:25.000And that's why I'm like, do they just have a psychological thing in them that says, okay, this is the narrative now, and I will stick with it, even in personal one-on-one conversations, and we'll just keep pretending that this is the narrative.
00:54:52.000Yeah. Imagine talking about subverting the will of the American people and potentially committing crimes because you're trying to hook up with some chick.
00:55:02.000We always bring up, it's like, these guys think they're going to get some by going like, hey, you want to hear about some corporate malfeasance I'm involved in?
00:55:12.000I think it's like a form of, I don't know if psychopathy is the right word, psychopathy.
00:55:15.000It's a buzzword these days, you know, Jordan talking about psychopaths, but that...
00:55:19.000He's just talking about Candace Owens and he's mad at it.
00:55:21.000We've got to get into states of psychopathy to do certain behaviors like wartime, warfighting.
00:55:26.000If you believe your neighborhood is going to be destroyed by some external tribe and they're going to kill everyone you know and you, you have to go fight them.
00:55:34.000That's ancient history and you have to be the most ruthless, aggressive to stop it.
00:55:40.000You've got to switch your brain and be like, they're bad.
00:55:43.000What I am is good because it will preserve life.
00:56:19.000If you don't adhere to the COVID narrative, then you are on that side.
00:56:26.000And that side turned into conservative right wing.
00:56:30.000And so I can tell you from going to so many rallies and events that were against those times, those events were filled with people from every side of the coin.
00:56:48.000Democrats, libertarians, we're coming together for a common cause.
00:56:52.000But the left is dictating who, or in this context, the left is dictating who is and is not a right-wing, and essentially they're just saying that it's people that don't align with us, that don't follow our, whether it be the liberal orthodoxy like Tim talks about,
00:57:14.000They don't follow the same kind of lockstep with the same kind of ideas and stuff.
00:57:19.000That's why you saw people at these rallies that were so very different, you know.
00:57:24.000Politically, from different backgrounds, it was just someone that stepped out of line.
00:57:29.000And so now Jimmy Dore steps out of line, so they say, you're other, you're outside of, you're not in our in-group anymore, so we'll call you all the names.
00:57:37.000But there's no substance to anything they're talking about.
00:57:40.000So the question is, where does that come from?
00:57:43.000What's the genesis of that, when those narratives come through?
00:57:47.000Who came up with woke, dark, what is this, dark, woke?
00:58:07.000They're just ripping off the right every day.
00:58:09.000What people need to realize is that the left didn't know how to meme.
00:58:13.000Like, when memes emerged, it was all right-wing.
00:58:18.000Because right-wing people didn't care about offending anybody.
00:58:21.000To a certain degree, that Democrats were too afraid to offend people.
00:58:24.000So this means that online, people were making Pepe memes, and some were extremely offensive intentionally, and people thought it was funny to be shockingly offensive.
00:58:33.000And the left was like, we can't do that.
00:59:17.000And I think what's happening is they're defending what they think is the American way of life, whatever.
00:59:21.000They think that if we just hold on to this narrative that we're being told, everything will continue on as normal.
00:59:27.000But do you think we can have American hegemony, or maybe even should, in a world where we don't control and manipulate people with the media aggressively like they have been for 100 years?
01:00:08.000But now we're in the decentralized media space, and creepos and crackpots are finding— Ways to build community and spread a message that is disruptive to the United States.
01:00:19.000The problem the U.S. has is that, you know, when we were hearing about this narrative about Russia and how it was propping up Trump in this first term, largely not true.
01:00:29.000And I'd say, arguing based on the evidence from the DOJ and all that stuff that the Democrats were putting out, $100,000 in total was spent on trying to influence various people and they had a few Facebook pages that weren't particularly successful.
01:00:42.000However... I think if you were to actually break it down...
01:01:11.000And you went to, like, Hassan Piker, for instance.
01:01:14.000I'd be willing to bet he has a larger percentage of foreign followers than, say, Stephen Crowder does.
01:01:19.000Stephen Crowder's followers are probably almost entirely American.
01:01:22.000And Hassan probably has a decent spattering of European, Canadian, Middle Eastern followers as well.
01:01:27.000Especially with the Israel commentary that he has, I'd be willing to bet that he's got a substantial portion of his viewerships coming from the Middle East.
01:02:07.000Who is, I would consider him to be an ideological-driven individual, an activist, masquerading as a journalist, is calling the White House press a freak show the night that I, the day that I went there, he goes on TV and then says it's a freak show.
01:02:56.000They're tired of media institutions favoring one party over another.
01:03:00.000They're tired of narratives over factual stories.
01:03:03.000If I had any advice for 60 Minutes or anybody else, it would be just cover the news and try to be fair about it and stop putting your finger on the scale, especially during...
01:03:13.000You're talking about the old mass media myth.
01:03:18.000That you could have this thing that was in the middle.
01:03:20.000The Walter Cronkite saying, that's the way it is, when it wasn't for many Americans the way it was.
01:06:54.000The reason that you have lost trust ought to be obvious to you.
01:06:57.000And the way to fix it also ought to be obvious to you.
01:07:00.000And it has nothing to do with Donald Trump and everything to do with the product.
01:07:03.000Just try to make a better product that appeals to more people.
01:07:06.000And the way you appeal to more people is by not crapping on half or more than half of the country because of their values and political views.
01:07:34.000They have audiences, and there's a reason that they're thriving is because people are starved for information that they think they can trust.
01:07:46.000So why do these freaks have more viewership, further reach?
01:07:53.000It's because that is the elitist disdain they have for each and every one of you.
01:07:59.000To those of you who are loyal viewers of Timcast IRL, I saw many of you were posting messages thanking me for being there and congratulating me for being there.
01:08:07.000Some people were saying, how dare you, Tim, not wear a suit?
01:09:08.000As much as a lot of people were very much entertained by Attar's appearance.
01:09:13.000And I very much enjoyed the conversation and the arguments and the debate.
01:09:18.000She did not know what was in the Signalgate texts, okay?
01:09:22.000Her understanding of these stories as a Brooklyn-based journalist is surface level.
01:09:29.000We've gone over those texts thousands of times.
01:09:31.000Like, not literally thousands, you know what I mean.
01:09:32.000We've done the stories over and over and over again.
01:09:34.000So when I'm having a conversation about them, I'm like, I think I had to read those things like 15 times within an hour.
01:09:41.000From sourcing the story and trying to understand it, to reading it during the show, to sharing with other people, to explaining to those who are going to be editing or putting clips together or something like that, what part of it.
01:09:50.000I'm reading the text over and over and over again.
01:09:52.000And so when it comes to a conversation, I'm like, I know what's in those texts.
01:10:43.000I'd like to see that guy here, and just to let him say it.
01:10:48.000Well, firstly, when you're talking about journalism, not all journalists are researchers, and that's sorely lacking in this industry at the moment, I believe.
01:10:55.000A lot of journalists will just repeat things that they see.
01:11:08.000Journalist, literally in the name, represents those who are writing things down, storing facts, and keeping journals, logs of what is going on.
01:11:17.000That's not what journalists do anymore.
01:11:19.000Well, it'll be like, I saw it on TV, and then they'll write it down, and then they'll say it as if it's real without actually researching where the TV heard it.
01:11:26.000You know, you've got to go deep if you want to, with confidence, explain.
01:11:31.000Because what they're going after is clicks.
01:11:34.000You know, that's their problem right now, is that they're after whatever can generate them their ad rev, right?
01:11:40.000So that's why they don't bother looking back.
01:11:42.000It's whatever the headline says to generate those ad rev clicks.
01:11:47.000I mean, that's totally true, but what they're actually looking for is some kind of inflammatory headline that will, just like you said, generate clicks, but also will satisfy their...
01:11:59.000The preconceptions of their viewership.
01:12:02.000Their viewership, they know what they're looking for.
01:12:04.000CNN knows exactly what their viewers want, the viewership that they've built.
01:12:11.000Same thing with MSNBC, same thing with Fox.
01:12:13.000And they make sure that their stories are going to feed people what they want to hear.
01:12:18.000Yeah, and the question is, where does the genesis of each one of those little narratives come from?
01:12:26.000Because at some point it slips in, and then the monster grabs a hole.
01:12:29.000But even in this clip with this guy here, what you're watching is a little football match, right?
01:12:40.000We have one person on offense from the other side, and he put them in their place pretty good.
01:12:46.000But they have no willingness to say to themselves, you know what, maybe we did...
01:15:34.000Okay, so the question is, how do these people maneuver?
01:15:38.000And the answer is, they go to where the power is.
01:15:41.000And they adopt those ideas, and they put themselves even on the forefront of that.
01:15:45.000But the ideas are completely irrelevant.
01:15:47.000All they're doing is, they're the Pharisees, they're the modern version of the Pharisees.
01:15:51.000They're the people who use God's name in vain, right?
01:15:54.000As they proclaim moral virtue, doesn't matter whether it's right or left or Christian or Jewish or Islam, they invade the idea space, and then they use those ideas as...
01:16:06.000false weapons to advance their narcissistic advantage.
01:16:10.000And so then you have the problem and the right's gonna face this more and more particularly because the left had to face
01:16:35.000What he's describing has been described by many people going back like 10 years ago when we had conversations about the corporate press, that activists masquerading as journalists was the phrase that I used a long time ago.
01:16:49.000These are people who are politically motivated, and they are using the institutions of journalism to advance their political goals, exactly as Jordan Peterson describes.
01:16:58.000However, the issue I take with what he's doing is he's really just beefing with Candace Owens.
01:17:02.000Here's a tweet from a month ago where he said, Candace Owens is a true pharicycle pretender.
01:17:06.000She vociferously proclaims her devotion to Christ for no other reason than to elevate her perceived status.
01:17:11.000Her outrage is designed not to shout the truth from the rooftops, build bridges or make peace, but to subvert Christianity itself with its new force to her own purpose.
01:17:25.000Yeah, and I think what he's saying is if Candace were to make a post, and I was going to go through her stuff and look for a moment that maybe she did this, a post that's full of vitriol, anger at someone, and then finish that text off with, and by the way, Christ is king.
01:17:38.000It's like, that's using the Lord's name in vain.
01:17:44.000Yeah, that's why I wanted to go through this conversation a while ago, because Jordan Peterson, along with some other experts, dropped this report where they were like, look at the people who use Crisis King as a troll or whatever.
01:17:56.000I would argue that if he's referring to her as a powerful psychopath who is able to amass this I genuinely think
01:18:29.000she just believes it, and she tweets it on her posts.
01:18:33.000The issue I see here is that Jordan Peterson is veiling his anger with Candace Owens in some, we have to be mad at all the psychopaths on Joe Rogan to create this new narrative.
01:18:48.000And it's a part of—he appeared on Fox News saying something similar, where they've got this report that I've heard—I think Jack Posobo was tweeting this, I should pull it up—that they're working with the Anti-Defamation League.
01:19:00.000And they're—he's—I tweeted, who are you talking about?
01:19:05.000Because if Jordan Peterson really is just mad at Candace Owens and believes she's a Pharisee— Then I take issue with him going on Joe Rogan and saying, watch out for all these psychopaths who do these things.
01:19:15.000And I'm like, bro, you're literally just describing your tweet to Candace Owens.
01:19:19.000I think it's important to realize that every human has a psychopathic tendency and potential to act without the concern of others.
01:19:28.000What you do may have collateral damage, harm others, and it just doesn't matter because you've got to get it done.
01:19:40.000Extol psychopathic behaviors, and they're not evil.
01:19:42.000They just do it, and it's like, I need to know when I'm doing it personally, so I keep myself in check.
01:19:46.000And I think he's coming on being like, look, you guys have all the power right now.
01:19:49.000And do not let obsession with fame force you into something, start talking about something you're not interested in, and then all of a sudden now, this is your big agenda, and now you're popular.
01:19:59.000Like he said, it's not about the what, it's about how people hijack the narrative for their own, what he said, narcissistic, which is where it's really about, you know, me.
01:20:09.000And how can I get society to serve me?
01:20:13.000That behavior, we all got to keep ourselves in check.
01:20:15.000I don't have a great analysis of actually what Peterson's getting at, but I don't get the sense that it's just about Candace Owens.
01:20:24.000I think that he's speaking more broadly about the people that tend to be critical of Israel and stuff.
01:20:32.000But again, I don't have some kind of overarching theory as to what he's getting at.
01:23:07.000And then I was backing Tulsi Gabbard and Andrew Yang.
01:23:10.000And when they lost, I said that I'm voting for Trump.
01:23:13.000But there are some people that only after Trump won in November did they actually switch and say they were for Trump.
01:23:20.000But more importantly, There are a prominent group of liberal personalities who pretend like they are anti-establishment or heterodox but refuse to endorse Trump or call out the Democratic Party for their ridiculous ideologies like sex-changing kids or all that stuff.
01:23:35.000Jordan Peterson is being effectively criticized in that regard for essentially being part of that group.
01:23:45.000You're saying that in addition to what he's talking about, he's also being criticized for...
01:23:50.000When he says, I wonder if there's a group of high-status liberals who have made that journey.
01:23:53.000What he's pointing out is that Peterson is saying on the Joe Rogan podcast, as the right becomes ascendant, psychopaths will seek to move into the right to gain political power.
01:24:03.000Probably why Bill Maher all of a sudden was like, you know, Trump's not that bad.
01:24:08.000I mean, he's not perfect, but maybe I was wrong.
01:24:11.000Charlemagne and the gods are the same thing.
01:24:12.000You know, maybe Trump's not a fascist.
01:24:13.000It's like, uh-oh, we realized that we were on the wrong side of history.
01:24:18.000But a lot of people, too, are just realizing the problem was the deep state, you know, takeover of the U.S., and they're like, actually, I'm with Trump now.
01:24:25.000And you think just on November 6th they just had the epiphany?
01:25:04.000She had been accused of, like, doxing conservatives or something.
01:25:06.000But then she had a moment where she flipped, she explained it, and she's been steadfastly on the right for, what, like, eight years or something or longer.
01:26:31.000But I don't know – I don't know if it's something that is, you know, particularly broad or if it's just a very narrow handful of people that it kind of doesn't really matter.
01:26:45.000I talked about it on the show last year that it was like, man, if I just start talking about that I'm going to vote for Trump, it's going to piss a bunch of people off from my past.
01:28:04.000Do you think that what we see with that adherence to what we were talking about earlier with the left, if you stray from their narrative, then you're out.
01:28:20.000The right has their, like, heavy-handed moments, but it's rare relative to the left.
01:28:25.000There's also, like, concentric circles of beliefs within this sphere, because that leftism thing is a very small bubble, and outside of it is this greater cause of reality and people that think that, you know...
01:28:36.000Israel is the biggest problem in the world, and then people that think that climate change is the biggest or whatever, I'm just naming random things, but then if you disagree within those circles, you might be ejected from that immediate community.
01:28:48.000Because the right is a coalition of various factions, there's no real right to be ejected from.
01:28:54.000So if you were a liberal personality with a big following on YouTube...
01:28:59.000And you said something like, I really do think the trans movement is harming our ability to win politically and we're sacrificing populist issues for this small faction of people.
01:29:36.000When he looks into these things, he goes, oh, that's not true.
01:29:39.000Oh, man, could you imagine that kind of stress to realize it and be like, oh, my God, I've got a million people that have been following this narrative and it's not real.
01:29:46.000And if you say it's not real, they will all attack you, destroy your life.
01:30:11.000Because he's able to agree about that.
01:30:12.000I'm not using it as an example, because he's gone.
01:30:13.000I think that the right, though, looks for reformed leftists, and they really cheer that on.
01:30:18.000When you see somebody from Hollywood, and they all of a sudden are saying something that...
01:30:23.000You know, many of us may have been saying for a good while.
01:30:26.000The conservative movement tends to, or the right, whatever you want to call it, everybody outside of the left, they tend to absorb it.
01:30:32.000Yeah, but I think it's because if someone comes from Hollywood and then starts saying, look, I've seen the light, I'm converting or whatever, you're hearing an expert from the inside explain to you all the bad things they're doing, effectively blowing the whistle.
01:30:58.000I can't believe I believed those things.
01:30:59.000And then they say, see, now you can tell us.
01:31:01.000And then they use that as an expert testimony of why I believed the things I did.
01:31:05.000The problem with the left is that they're just factually wrong about everything.
01:31:09.000You know, so you're in trouble if you're a media personality on the left because you're like, you could literally Google search the story and go, whoa, he was from El Salvador?
01:31:26.000Gonna lie anyway, otherwise I'll lose my followers.
01:31:28.000Okay, this is a big leap, and we don't need to go into this, but on the right, I feel like that version of that, where they're like, I saw it on TV, therefore it's real, I'm gonna regurgitate, is like, I read it in a 2,000-year-old document, I'm gonna regurgitate it if it's real.
01:32:00.000You're conflating some very different things because the fact is the right isn't just Christian.
01:32:06.000Exactly. So when we're talking about the left and their adherence to an orthodoxy, which is false, and then you bring up Christianity specifically, it just sounds like you're insulting Christians.
01:36:33.000do you know it's graphene well it said graphene on there you told me it was graphene it was dirt like graphene i filled up a vial outside and wrote graphene on it it looks like black sand i went
01:42:09.000The corporate press not doing any research, deciding things are true without checking, or intentionally lying to people to spread misinformation.
01:42:17.000And the fascinating thing to me is that we were told that double masking worked.
01:42:21.000We were told that six feet distance was how you effectively stopped the spread of COVID.
01:42:26.000And then we learned just recently, actually not super recently, but a year or two ago, they made it up.
01:43:15.000And I used gyroscopic stabilization and vibration to reduce the surface friction to zero so that it could float across solid surfaces and then use a gyroscopic stabilizer so that it could turn.
01:43:26.000And that video is actually on YouTube.
01:43:29.000So I actually tested these things and tried it out and said, wow, I was able to actually put together a radio transmitter that actually received it.
01:43:36.000And then the receiver received the signal, completing a circuit and causing a motor to spin.
01:44:37.000If a woman could see more colors than I could and asserted to me that there was a color on that skateboard, it's not just yellow, it's two colors.
01:44:48.000She has a fourth rod and cone and she can see colors I can't.
01:44:51.000But I'm just going to tell her she's wrong because I can't see it.
01:44:54.000The only thing that I know is that I know nothing.
01:44:56.000And that doesn't mean I literally don't know a thing.
01:44:58.000It means that for the most part, we are choosing who to trust and then we are relying on that to build a foundation of what we hope to be true.
01:45:05.000Which is why when I talk about quantum physics, science, technology, and religion, I often say, if what we believe in science is true, then.
01:45:14.000However, for all we know, they're just lying and...
01:45:17.000Computer screens are magic rocks they found in the earth, and they have no idea how they work.
01:45:21.000Considering that, you know, I've had friends who've actually built them, and I actually watched, after watching Dr. Stone, I watched a video of creating a, what is it, a fluorescent, what do they call it?
01:45:34.000In Dr. Stone, they take a beaker, and they put like phosphorus on it, and then they make a light that can go up and down and left and right to create a basic screen, and that's how they do a back projection screen.
01:45:43.000And then I watched a video on YouTube of how it was done, and I was like, oh wow.
01:45:46.000You actually can see the building blocks of these things.
01:46:51.000Criminals forge your signature on one document, use a fake notary stamp, pay a small fee with your county, and then boom, your home title has been transferred out of your name.
01:46:59.000They'll then take out loans using your equity and even sell your property, and you won't even know it's happened until you get a collection or foreclosure notice.

01:47:20.000That's 24-7 monitoring of your title, urgent alerts, too many changes, and if fraud should happen, they'll spend up to $1 million to fix it.
01:47:34.000When we first took a sponsorship from Home Title Lock, our guest pointed out that there was a...
01:47:39.000It actually just happened a couple months ago that there were some really big stories where there was, I guess it was a group of people, or a couple criminals, had conned a bunch of home titles.
01:49:17.000It's kind of just, it makes you feel bad.
01:49:18.000But Alex Stein would kick them off in a very funny and entertaining way.
01:49:22.000Everyone would laugh as he's removing the person from the stage, and I think that's a better show.
01:49:26.000So that's why we have to have Alex there.
01:49:28.000We're hoping to do this weekly at the same venue.
01:49:31.000And we're hoping that if the first one does really well, we're thinking we're going to do this one on May 3rd, then probably another one two weeks later.
01:49:43.000We've got to work it out, but the general idea is tickets are free right now if you're a member, which means you're paying for membership if you get a free ticket.
01:49:50.000It's not sustainable because we want people who don't want to just debate.
01:49:58.000So what we're thinking we're going to do is we're going to sell tickets.
01:50:00.000However, any member can submit to what will have like 10 reserved seats.
01:50:06.000Members can submit to join the debates and then we will have those 10 reserved seats for the 10 people who want to and then we'll choose between them during the show.
01:50:14.000But then we can have 60 seats for sale to the public so people can bring their friends and you don't got to be a member.
01:50:20.000That way we can fill seats because ultimately what we want is to find a venue with 100 to 200 seats and have a regularly scheduled Culture War Live.
01:50:32.000A lot of liberals are going to sign up for Tim Pool's thing.
01:50:34.000But if it's like 10 bucks to get in, then they might be like, I'll definitely come to this and watch, you know, Charlie Kirk debate my friend or somebody.
01:51:06.000I'm just like, I don't know that Dan Bongino would walk away from, like, dozens of millions, whatever that number was, from a show as big as his, to not get the bad guys.
01:52:55.000Beef Nancy says, do the board but have be gay do crime in black light ink or an off-white from the board color so you can barely see it and have to do a double take.
01:53:06.000I'm pretty sure if we made a skateboard that said, be gay, do crime...
01:54:04.000It's when South Park said, when they had the episode where the kids were saying fag all the time, and they were like, we're not making fun of gay people.
01:56:52.000I wish it was easy to have more answers, but as long as we're not doing regime change war, then, you know, I think we've got some improvements.
01:57:45.000We should create a massive series of cables.
01:57:49.000And bolt them to the moon, and then pull all the cables down to Earth, and then get heavy machinery, and just pull the moon into the Earth, causing its orbit to decay, and then the moon to shift all the tides 20 feet in the air,
01:58:04.000just plunging Earth into a perpetual flood, which wipes out all of the distance.
01:58:09.000And then we can have a big surf contest.
01:58:17.000Oh, I did, I reported, yeah, the Mr. Burns plan.
01:58:20.000Dude, but what we could build is a couple of slingshots from our orbital platforms to slingshot stuff from Earth to the Moon's platform and back.
01:59:36.000Seven Legion says, Ian, 500 people say they saw Jesus risen back to life, and the majority of them refused to recant even if they were being executed for saying it.
01:59:49.000The problem is, it just goes back to the beginning again, is like, without verifiable evidence, I have a hard time believing any of the story at all.
02:02:17.000The Donner Party was people heading west, and they thought there was a passage that was really open, and they got stuck, and then they starved to death, and then they ate each other.
02:02:26.000One guy went out, and he left his wife and kid back behind because he wanted to go find them, I think.
02:05:56.000That was the fault of the restarting the computer, I think.
02:06:01.000So anyway, there's a super chat that said Ian doesn't even agree with Ian, and now for the third time you have to say it again because the mics weren't working.
02:06:08.000No, I was just saying all you have to do is ask him what he believes in, and then he'll go down that rabbit hole and land in the same spot he's at with Christianity and Jesus.
02:06:18.000Indeed. We got the same stupid problem on the...
02:06:53.000I don't know if we're getting, are we getting audio in the, I don't know if people in the chat can hear us in the Discord.
02:07:06.000Whatever. Anyway, for those that are watching on Rumble, you can hear us, because I can see the audio, but for some reason Discord's acting weird.
02:07:12.000But, yeah, do you want to ask Ian then?
02:07:24.000Well, you know, I used to think the cosmic microwave background radiation, which you can see through these radio telescopes, it's like the leftover radiation from the Big Bang.
02:07:31.000And it looks kind of like a web, almost like a neural net.
02:07:43.000Because, you know, I know it's not real.
02:07:45.000These things were made up by people to trick us into believing that this science and space is real, but we know space isn't because there's a firmament and it's water above the firmament.
02:12:20.000Yeah, but the proportion is that he's a magician that has magical abilities, so can he cast magic is the question.
02:12:25.000But magic is just physical capabilities we don't yet understand.
02:12:29.000It is components of physics that exist within...
02:12:32.000The realm of possibility we don't yet understand how it happens.
02:12:34.000If you said, like, in 2,000 years a guy will raise from the dead, I'll be like, okay, well, now let's follow that.
02:12:40.000But if you're saying 2,000 years ago when our technology was shit, I didn't know that.
02:12:44.000What if Atlantis exists and the king had a son who lived outside of Atlantis, and then one day the son, this individual, a messenger came to him, an emissary of Atlantis,
02:12:59.000and said, You're actually the son of the king of Atlantis.
02:13:02.000We have profound technologies these people don't quite understand.
02:13:05.000We can grant you the ability to fly, to heal.
02:13:54.000Which leads me to a position where I recognize.
02:13:56.000I typically have faith based on my perspective and my experiences, hence why I don't lie and just—I'm not going to lie and pretend to be a Christian.
