On today's show, we discuss the latest news involving Doge and the IRS, Elon Musk's new deal with the government, and why you should be worried about the end of the world as we know it. Plus, we have a special guest on the show, Nick Gain, who talks about being a whistleblower and getting poisoned by the Deep State.
00:00:33.000There's a viral video going around where it shows, I think it's Bill Clinton and Al Gore talking about how they need to completely restructure, gut all these departments, and this was back in the 90s.
00:00:42.000Now, we're looking at one of the first efforts ever.
00:00:46.000To get rid of the waste fraud and the abuse and what's happening?
00:00:49.000Well, now that Doge has made its way to the IRS, I just love saying that, by the way.
00:00:54.000Democrats in 14 states have launched a lawsuit, as well as some non-profits, against Elon Musk and Trump to stop them from dealing with waste fraud and abuse?
00:01:43.000He's proposing some kind of like demilitarization between China and Russia.
00:01:47.000You got the media freaking out, saying that the end of the world is near.
00:01:51.000Zelensky and Ukraine is screaming because now apparently Russia is going to invade Poland, which is just utter nonsense.
00:01:57.000And then we got a couple of stories because, you know.
00:02:01.000It wouldn't all be worth it unless we got the opportunity to gloat as we watch the screaming left freak out over nothing because they lost the election.
00:02:11.000We got our good friend Bill Burr saying that billionaires should be put down?
00:03:02.000But I do recommend checking out Appalachian Nights, which is typically the bestseller, though Ian's Graphene Dream has taken the website by storm.
00:03:10.000Stand Your Grounds is very similar, but it is a medium roast, and then there's the light roast, which is Rise with Roberto Jr. They're all really good.
00:03:17.000And then we've got, if you go digging into the ground, we've got Misty Mountains.
00:03:22.000Misty Mountains Costa Rican blend, as well as Focus with Mr. Bocas.
00:04:00.000And of course, for those who hang out after the main show, we're going to have that uncensored member call-in show available.

00:04:22.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more, of course, is Nate Kane.
00:06:03.000And it's all because they have, since Donald Trump came onto the political scene, their entire modus operandi has been, Donald Trump is bad.
00:06:12.000Anything that Donald Trump wants, we're against.
00:06:15.000I mean, it's become a caricature, but it's actually the way they behave.
00:06:40.000If Trump does not—the easy answer is if Trump doesn't go up against the bureaucratic machine and deal with the resources they use to elect their shill candidates, then it's never going to stop.
00:06:51.000But it's also masterfully political in that for the longest time we've known Democrats have just been whatever Trump is, they're the opposite.
00:07:15.000When an argument happens where Trump says, this war would never have started if I was the president and Ukraine and Russia should stop fighting, the Democrats argue, yes, but the problem with, you know, cessation of hostilities is that Russia is going to move in.
00:07:45.000You start with something like USAID. No one really knows what it is.
00:07:48.000And you creep your way in and start saying, look at all these ridiculous programs.
00:07:53.000The average American who's actually listening, not the weird NPCs.
00:07:57.000Are going to see, you know, gender study puppet shows in Peru, whatever it is was going on, and they're going to say, yeah, why are we spending money on that?
00:08:06.000Then, after the story, you know, simmers a little bit, ruminates, you then go into the IRS. This is the Babylon Bee prophecy.
00:08:16.000Do you guys remember when the Babylon Bee wrote the article that said, ingenious move Trump comes out in support of impeachment, forcing Democrats to oppose?
00:08:25.000The Babylon Bee has gotten it right over and over again, and now where we are, Doge has gone to the IRS. There's not—I'm sorry, I'm going to say it.
00:08:35.000If a poll ever came out showing favorability for the IRS, I would—it's fake.
00:08:41.000Even if the IRS was a bunch of, like, cherubic small children handing out candy bars, everybody knows when they take money from your paycheck, they're angry about it and so is everybody else.
00:08:55.000So, to simplify and just wrap this up, Trump has now put Democrats in the position of being angry that Trump would dare go after the people who steal your money.
00:09:05.000And I'm being a bit facetious with the steal your money, but I know our libertarian friends are screaming taxation is theft.
00:09:10.000I mean, look, I've been pretty clear about my opinion that taxation is theft, considering the fact that the only reason the dollar has value nowadays is the demand that taxation is, right?
00:09:22.000So the reason that fiat currencies have a value is because the...
00:09:28.000Issuing government requires that you pay taxes in that currency.
00:09:32.000So there's a demand for dollars, so you can pay your taxes.
00:09:36.000And what they do with those dollars is they just destroy them.
00:09:40.000Your dollars don't go to pay for anything.
00:09:42.000When they want to fund something, they just print the money for it.
00:09:45.000The taxation is used in conjunction with interest rates in order to mediate inflation.
00:11:20.000The debt then goes up by $50 million plus interest, and then they basically just pay the interest while not paying the debt.
00:11:26.000And you combine that with USAID and all of the fraudulent waste and abuse, it is the US government hemorrhaging money.
00:11:36.000And another way to put it would be the Titanic literally sinking and taking on water.
00:11:41.000Well, this USAID thing, one of the things that's kind of interesting is I've noticed there's been a lot of videos that people have been posting.
00:12:12.000The IRS collected more than $4.9 trillion in gross revenue in the fiscal year of 2022. That is a substantial amount of money for them to be taken from the American people with our taxes, and they're just giving it to the government to let them spend $9.4 or $4.9 trillion.
00:12:27.000Especially when you've got people down in South Carolina that are still homeless.
00:13:41.000I know some people don't, you know, a lot of Democrats thought it was real.
00:13:44.000But Ron Wyden said, he's sounding the alarm, quote, my office is hearing that Doge is now at the IRS. That means Musk's henchmen are in a position to dig through a trove of data about every taxpayer in America.
00:13:56.000And if your refund is delayed, they could very well be the reason.
00:14:22.000The government is taking more of your money than they're legally allowed to do, and then every year they give it back, and people act happy about it.
00:14:28.000That is an interest-free loan that you are giving to the government.
00:14:32.000It is better to hold on to that money yourself, pay the amount that you're supposed to, hold on to that money yourself, and put it into a...
00:15:14.000If you make a mistake and you end up owing at the end of the year, that can put you in the poorhouse.
00:15:21.000So this country functions by taking more of your money, money you need, especially to buy eggs, and at the end of the year you cross your fingers and hope you gave the government enough and maybe they'll be nice enough to give you some back.
00:15:33.000You know, there's something that Wyden is hinting out here that I think is important to note.
00:15:37.000He's saying that this may slow down you getting your check, and I'm already seeing this where you've got federal employees that basically are kind of on a working strike.
00:15:50.000They're intentionally doing things that they shouldn't be doing or not doing things that they should be doing.
00:15:55.000There was some whistleblowers at the FBI recently just came out talking about how there was reprisal that was going on where they were basically denying people their...
00:16:06.000Clearances and things like that, or having their clearances drop.
00:16:10.000And I was talking to a field security officer who was telling me, or a facility security officer that was telling me that that's exactly what they've seen going on.
00:16:20.000They've never seen this in their 20 years career, and now they're seeing all of a sudden all these problems with people's clearances.
00:16:27.000I think that this is going to be their tactic against Trump.
00:16:30.000They're going to try to slow down the federal government every which way they can to make it impossible for them.
00:16:35.000I'm just having a good time with the IRS stuff, guys.
00:16:39.000I hope, you know, look, we've seen nothing just yet, but there's a lot of speculation that the waste, fraud, and abuse we find at the IRS is going to result in, let's just say, when they start cutting back these things, you should get more money.
00:16:53.000I'm hoping that they go into the IRS and they uncover...
00:17:23.000What's going to happen when they add those 87,000 agents is that you're going to get a bill in the mail.
00:17:27.000They started scrutinizing all transactions over $600, claiming we're only raising taxes on wealthy people, but they were scrutinizing transactions on poor people.
00:17:37.000So here's how it works for the IRS. They want to increase their revenue and make more money.
00:17:42.000They're going to send you a letter in the mail.
00:17:44.000One day, you're going to open up your mail.
00:18:04.000One friend of mine ended up on like a thousand something.
00:18:07.000And so he was like, yo, that's an insane amount of money.
00:18:09.000Get a letter from the IRS saying you owe this money.
00:18:11.000And so he fought it and it turned out the IRS was wrong.
00:18:14.000But what happens when they send out those bills for $25, $50, $100, and some working class Joe is like, I can't afford to hire a lawyer or dispute this.
00:18:23.000This is the issue with getting a speeding ticket, right?
00:18:26.000A lot of people get tickets every day, maybe they weren't speeding, and they say, go tell it to a judge.
00:18:30.000Like, yo, I can't take a day off work to go to court because you're trying to take $100 from me.
00:18:37.000This is what the IRS is doing, and I'm willing to bet.
00:18:41.000That when Elon Musk's Doge team goes in there, they're going to find that the IRS... Here's what I think it'll be.
00:18:47.000Not that they're intentionally overcharging Americans and sending out all of these bills, but that their review process to determine whether or not an American owes money is so scrambled and lax.
00:18:59.000I'm willing to bet the IRS approves all monetary demands.
00:19:04.000Some low-level IRS agent says, I looked at some guy's PayPal.
00:20:06.000And the idea that these are supposed to be agencies that exist for the betterment of the American people, and yet they intentionally make your life more difficult.
00:20:37.000Why is it that it's incumbent on the American people, the individuals, to go and find a third party and pay that third party to do all the paperwork when the federal government knows?
00:20:55.000The fact that there are services advertising, and it's funny because we're getting close to tax season too, services saying, we'll get you the maximum refund.
00:21:03.000The U.S. government knows that tons of people are eligible for more money they overpaid.
00:21:08.000And if they make a mistake, here's what's funny.
00:21:10.000If you make a mistake and overpay, they have smiles on their faces.
00:21:14.000If you make a mistake and underpay, you're getting a fine and a penalty.
00:21:17.000They have a literal police force of their own.
00:21:21.000With fully automatic weapons, which you're not allowed to own.
00:21:25.000Remember when the IRS ordered millions of rounds of pallets?
00:21:29.000There was a literal shortage on green tip 556, which is what's used in your average AR-15, M16-style rifle, because the federal government ordered pallets and pallets and pallets for all of the policing agencies.
00:21:57.000These agencies do not exist to help the American people at all.
00:22:05.000And when Elon said we should refund $740 million from the consumer protection, whatever, all the Democrats were like, oh no, now the banks are going to rip us all off.
00:22:15.000It's like, these systems of governance.
00:22:28.000Before I do, I'm going to shout it to Lurch in the Super Chat, who said HR25 introduced repeals the income tax in the IRS. This story was January 29th.
00:22:36.000Resolution to abolish federal income taxes introduced in House Committee.
00:22:41.000You know they're not going to do anything with it.
00:22:46.000That they're trying, this is Buddy Carter from Georgia, introduced H.R. 25 earlier this month to the White House Ways and Means Committee, to promote freedom, fairness, and economic opportunity by repealing the income tax and other taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service, and enacting a national sales tax to be administered primarily by the states.
00:23:05.000I completely agree with abolishing the income tax.
00:23:10.000You go back in time, and it was supposed to be only on the ultra-wealthy, and only like 1%.
00:23:16.000And then if you look right after World War II is when it jumps up and basically everybody now has to do the taxes, file, get your government number and all that stuff.
00:23:24.000I'm a fan of tariffs to fund the government, as Trump has pointed out, and a sales tax.
00:23:32.000I don't think a tariff-only system is completely feasible because I don't know that we generate enough.
00:23:37.000The idea being that foreign countries would need us as customers and thus those taxes would help fund the government.
00:24:07.000And that right there, that's a great point, Tim.
00:24:10.000If you are not penalized for investing, that's actually helping the economy in multiple ways because it's investing in businesses in the United States.
00:24:19.000But Phil, how will the government front money for war, military industrial complex, and other ridiculous expenditures like gender studies in Pakistan if they can't just spend the money and then take it from you later?
00:24:35.000So, hypothetically, having a consumption tax as opposed to an income tax doesn't change the way that money gets into the system, or doesn't necessitate a change in the way that money gets into the system.
00:24:48.000There could still be a Federal Reserve.
00:24:50.000I'm not saying that I endorse this because I would love to see an audit of the Fed, I would love to see actual money that's backed up by something other than nuclear weapons and by a tax scheme, but that does not, having a consumption tax does not It doesn't automatically mean that there isn't a central bank, doesn't automatically mean that there isn't still a, you know, the Federal Reserve that prints money when the Congress writes a bill.
00:25:15.000All of that stuff could, in theory, still be in place, but instead of having your income taxed, you have a national consumption tax that maybe it would adjust depending, like, the way that the interest rate adjusts.
00:25:32.000The cost of borrowing money, maybe the federal consumption tax adjusts depending on the needs of the government to manage inflation.
00:25:42.000Should it be federal or should we give it to the state?
00:25:44.000No, it has to be federal because the states don't issue the currency.
00:26:04.000If you're talking to someone who's not very learned on the issue, like, say, Kyle Kalinske, who thinks Elon Musk has cash and doesn't know what a farm looks like.
00:26:11.000I, you know, I hate to be mean to the guy, but he's really gone off his rocker as of late.
00:26:16.000But I've actually spoken with the more learned leftist individuals who I would put them in the category of willfully lying.
00:26:23.000You've got the people who just don't know what they're talking about.
00:26:25.000Then you have people who are willfully lying.
00:26:26.000And the argument made by many of these individuals, one example would be AOC's policy proposals as it pertains to universal health care deficit spend.
00:26:37.000The way she's described it and lightly.
00:26:41.000But when you combine this with the more prominent thinkers on the progressive leftist side, the argument they make is that the U.S. economy is so massive that it's not negatively impacted.
00:26:51.000By mass spending and hyperinflation the way it used to be.
00:26:55.000So when you look at smaller nations with limited resources compared to the United States, hyperinflation is rapid.
00:27:02.000There's only a handful of factories, only a handful of food suppliers, only a handful of farmers.
00:27:07.000The United States is ridiculously, it's effectively 50 countries relative to how history used to be, say in like Europe.
00:27:13.000Their argument is, if the U.S. government were to spend, were to manifest right now $1 trillion, And put that in a coffer to pay doctors to perform healthcare services on individuals.
00:27:26.000The money would enter the system in such a way that it would not, hyperinflation would not happen.
00:27:33.000Most people would not realize, and people consume so rapidly, savings are immaterial to the argument.
00:27:39.000They're literally calling for deficit spending and hyperinflation because so long as there is a monopoly on violence, it won't matter anyway.
00:27:50.000Yeah, I mean, and these people, if you're dealing with leftists, they don't believe in a capitalist system anyways.
00:27:56.000So anything that might bring about a more consolidation of power in the federal government and less power to private industry is a good thing for them.
00:28:08.000So if they can get the entire healthcare, all healthcare providers to be funded by the government.
00:28:16.000Then that's a win to them because then they get the, not only do they have the ability to say, oh, look, we give healthcare for free, we've got Medicare for all, but they also have the ability to ration healthcare and decide who doesn't get it.
00:29:39.000They want you to line up with your ledger because you get one carton of eggs per week.
00:29:44.000This all leads in one direction to what we call a command economy, where there is a centralized authority that determines how and when you can buy things and how you buy it.
00:29:57.000Now, obviously, the ledger system, look at your little book.
00:30:00.000You show up and then they stamp it and say, no more eggs for you for the week.
00:30:29.000That if you were a person, just a person, you could walk up to another person and say, got any work I can do?
00:30:35.000Famous old movies where the young man is traveling, he's got the stick with the napkin, and he comes up to a farm and says, you know, I'm just traveling on my way to West, but I need some work.
00:30:44.000And the guy says, I got some work you can do.
00:31:12.000You write news, sports, and video games.
00:31:15.000But there's three different news outlets that buy from you.
00:31:18.000So based on the law that California passed, the moment you write 30, I think it's 30 articles for one company, they must hire you as an employee.
00:32:53.000Everyone gets paid a flat amount, and then we deficit spend, but don't worry, because the government will capture and control the currency.
00:33:42.000Such as effectively waging war, capturing citizens sleeping in their homes, etc.
00:33:48.000Let's jump to this next story from ABC News.
00:33:50.000The Democrats outraged that Elon Musk dare challenge the IRS. 14 states sued Doge, blasting Musk's unprecedented power as unconstitutional.
00:34:02.000The suit says Musk's role violates the appointments clause of the Constitution.
00:34:08.000You know, Ian, a regular on this show.
00:34:11.000Trump either rolls ones or twenties as it goes.
00:34:14.000And for those who don't know what that means, it means when you roll a one in Dungeons and Dragons, it's critical failure.
00:34:18.000When you roll a twenty, it's critical success.
00:34:20.000For all of his faults, Ian was terrified, saying Elon Musk is a de facto administrator who's never confirmed, actually did the research, came back and said, yo, I was wrong.
00:34:31.000Trump is allowed to hire Elon Musk for 130 days as a special government employee.
00:34:48.000They say, led by the state of New Mexico, the lawsuit argues, in often dramatic terms, that the appointments clause of the Constitution calls for someone with such significant and expansive authority as Musk to be formally nominated by the president and confirmed by the U.S. Senate.
00:35:01.000There is no greater threat to democracy than the accumulation of state power in the hands of a single unelected individual.
00:35:06.000The suit was filed by New Mexico Attorney General Raul Torres and officials from Arizona, Michigan, Maryland, Minnesota, California, Nevada, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Oregon, Washington, and Hawaii.
00:35:15.000Although our constitutional system was designed to prevent the abuses of an 18th century monarch, the instruments of unchecked power are no less dangerous in the hands of a 21st century tech baron.
00:35:24.000Two of the 14 states are led by Republican governors.
00:35:39.000I gotta tell you, as much as we want to praise Elon and talk about how we love Doge, the reality is all Elon is doing is pointing the finger and saying, oh, hey, Trump, look at that.
00:36:02.000The left has been trying their best to say, oh, hey...
00:36:09.000There is a co-president, Elon Musk, is actually the guy running the show.
00:36:14.000And the reason they're doing that is because they're trying to get Donald Trump to get upset in the hopes that Donald Trump would say, well, I need to get rid of Elon Musk because he's blah, blah, blah.
00:36:23.000Donald Trump is not the same guy that he was from 2017 to 2020. He was surprised that he won in 2016-17.
00:37:45.000We're not like lemmings going off a cliff.
00:37:48.000We're able to argue with each other and work things out, and then in the end we can work, and then in the end we can come to a grand agreement on the great ideas that we're going to come through.
00:37:57.000I'm looking forward to the IRS stuff, really.
00:38:21.000This is where they're taking money from the American people, and this is the other side of that coin.
00:38:27.000We can mock and we can joke about how USAID is funding garbage and shut it down to save money, but then we've got to take a look at – How, first of all, the deficit spending, increasing the debt, accruing debt, the creation of money, and how they're taking money from the American people.
00:38:45.000Here's how they're taking your money, and here's how they're doing it wrongly, which I assume they are, and here's how they're wasting your money.
00:39:26.000The Krasensteins on X right now are saying, listen, I know that we don't like getting taxed, but the IRS does perform a service the American people need, and it's just like, nope!
00:42:54.000There were all these, and of course that was in California for me, so there were all of these taxes that were in there, and I couldn't figure, you know, what half of that stuff was, but it was about 50% on my check.
00:43:27.000I mean, wait till they get to the Pentagon.
00:43:30.000And Pete Hegsath is there, and so he's like, okay, I'm excited.
00:43:33.000But also, Medicaid and Medicare and Social Security.
00:43:37.000Imagine what's going to happen when they come out and they say, to all of our Social Security recipients, you should be getting $100 more per month, but here's where they've been dumping the money.
00:43:47.000Imagine when they find mismanagement, wasted budget, and these gross expenditures where people actually need that funding.
00:43:55.000Didn't DHS just do like a $52 million clawback?
00:44:36.000But, Tom, you got AOC out there, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Congresswoman, putting out a webinar, doing a webinar to help illegals avoid, I guess, apprehension, giving tips about how to continue to remain in the country and ultimately gain the system.
00:44:56.000And I sent an email today to the Deputy Attorney General.
00:46:22.000Are these Democrats breaking the law, violating, this is Title VIII, U.S. Code 1324. This is immigration law, and that's Section A, Subsection 4, which is encouragement and inducement to reside illegally or enter illegally these United States.
00:46:38.000At a certain point, it's kind of obvious that's what they're doing.
00:46:40.000So when AOC sits up a meeting saying, here's how we can get you to stay here illegally and evade law enforcement, that is encouragement.
00:47:11.000But Ilhan Omar was speaking to Somali...
00:47:16.000I believe asylum seekers or migrants or whatever you want to call them, illegals.
00:47:21.000And she was speaking to them in Somali and she was telling them, you know, this is how, these are the rights you have and you can avoid talking to the police by doing this and you don't have to talk to the police.
00:47:53.000If an average person was saying that, then maybe it's not an inducement to break the law, right?
00:47:58.000Maybe it's just saying, look, this is something you should know.
00:48:01.000But because of the fact that it's a congressperson saying it, that implies, the position of authority implies this is what you can do legally.
00:48:10.000It implies that they're telling them a true thing that is a legal way for them to avoid.
00:48:19.000For them to come to the United States.
00:48:20.000I know I'm wasting my time by asking this question, but I want to ask it anyway.
00:48:25.000Do you think AOC should be criminally charged for encouragement, inducement, or impediment to law enforcement?
00:48:31.000Give us a one in chat for yes and a two in chat for no.
00:49:33.000And if you go back to 2008, there's this video where Hillary Clinton is talking about building a border barrier.
00:49:39.000Bernie Sanders is talking about securing the border.
00:49:42.000Democrats were like, nobody's on board with illegal immigration.
00:49:45.000But over the past 10 or so years, it has become commonplace among Democrats to advocate, literally breaking the law, advocating for illegal immigration.
00:50:00.000We cannot just accept that they've normalized this.
00:50:04.000We can't sit back and say, well, I know it's a federal crime to do this, but we shouldn't enforce against it because it would be a step too far.
00:50:10.000They stepped too far when they began breaking the law and encouraging illegal activity.
00:50:22.000And then if they do it again, we ramp it up and we say, look, we are going to enforce against this.
00:50:28.000I don't think AOC should go to jail if we're putting on a webinar, but I think she should get a fine of $100 and they should say, don't do it again, court supervision.
00:50:35.000Otherwise, it just keeps getting worse.
00:50:37.000If we're the party of the law and order, we need to establish and follow through with our law and order.
00:50:42.000Yeah, I mean, I made the point the other day that, you know, Congress, there are multiple ways to reprimand Congress people.
00:50:50.000Censure's been all but forgotten about.
00:50:53.000And it is actually, you know, it doesn't have significant ramifications, but it does go into the record that, you know, into the Library of Congress.
00:51:58.000And whip guys coming across the border and send them back to Mexico because of the fear of what it was going to do to the wages of workers.
00:52:07.000And what they did, the other thing that happened in 1993 was Congress passed the National Voter Registration Act, which basically forced DMVs to start allowing people to register, or actually, yeah, forced them to allow them to register to vote at the DMV, and the very first state in U.S. history, the state of Washington, Allowed illegal immigrants to get driver's licenses, and it started growing from there.
00:52:32.000There's another piece of the puzzle, and that is Ronald Reagan in California offering up amnesty to illegal immigrants, creating a voting generation that had an interest in the previous generation, who was not American, having access to public funds.
00:52:50.000So you can actually read about how this chain of events occurred.
00:52:54.000There's a bunch of illegal immigrants.
00:52:56.000Ronald Reagan says, okay, we're going to grant them amnesty, or we're going to give them sanctuary, we're going to pass a bill where they can live and reside.
00:53:03.000And what ends up happening with this, actually it might have been in the 90s, I could be totally screwing the story up.
00:53:10.000Ronald Reagan advocated for amnesty, which resulted in a bunch of individuals, when it came time to vote, there was a bill in the 90s that would say illegal immigrants no longer have access to public funds.
00:54:51.000There's now a town of three, four hundred people and they're like, look at this, you know, my granddad came in here and he built this place and we've had this baseball field our whole lives.
00:55:00.000I want my kids to play in this baseball field and you know what?
00:56:17.000The Republican Party has failed miserably.
00:56:19.000But now that Trump has taken it over, these are people who are trying to plant those trees, have families, have kids, and build a society where there will be a baseball field, or whatever you think it might be in the future, and it will be funded and repaired.
00:56:32.000So to put it simply, as I told Ro Khanna, you're not wrong to vote for your parents.
00:56:37.000You're not wrong to vote to say, hey, look, man, my dad needs help.
00:56:45.000And then a generation later, those children can vote against the interests of the honest, hardworking American.
00:56:50.000Well, this brings up the issue of birthright citizenship that Trump just did these executive order and the courts are trying to stop it.
00:56:58.000So that's one of the issues right now that's going on is that whether or not somebody who is born to illegal aliens is actually an American citizen because they're not born under the jurisdiction.
00:57:11.000of the United States when their parent is here illegally.
00:57:21.000It's going to be the end of America if we keep having these anchor babies or second generation folks coming into our world.
00:57:28.000Sorry, if they don't have our American values and they have their own values from their own country where it's not a melting pot, we're like multicultural, it's the end of America.
00:57:38.000That's half of it though because it's true.
00:57:39.000We want American values, the Constitution, free speech, all the things that are enshrined in it.
00:58:12.000It is the right thing to do to stand up for your parents.
00:58:14.000But that's the problem with extracting American community and bringing in 10 to 20 million new people, whether legally or illegally, in four years.
00:58:24.000It's not that they're voting incorrectly.
00:58:26.000It's not that they're voting morally wrong.
00:58:27.000It's that they're voting against the interests of people who live here.
00:58:30.000We do go back to the 1920s where we did like a moratorium on all immigration.
01:01:32.000But I want to make sure it's clear that my tax dollars and my labor funding you to get free stuff, I'm not interested in that.
01:01:40.000If corn can't be grown for the right price, don't grow it.
01:01:43.000And then the problem is we end up with high-fructose corn syrup and corn ethanol and all that garbage because the government's subsidizing it.
01:01:53.000And everyone knows that there's tons of high-fructose corn syrup in...
01:01:58.000All sorts of products that don't need it or you don't want to have it in there.
01:02:04.000And there's the argument, look, don't go into the aisles.
01:02:07.000You do your grocery shopping in the produce department, do it in the meat department, do it in the dairy department, but if you go into the aisles, then that's where you get into problems with the foods that you're eating.
01:02:22.000They often have to go into the aisles.
01:02:24.000And the one thing that is going to be interesting about this is that one of the reasons why some of those products in the aisles is so cheap is because of things like corn syrup and other things that they're not having to import from Mexico or South America.
01:02:37.000They should not be eating some of that stuff.
01:02:39.000And there's a secondary issue here, too, and that is that most of these people, they end up with health problems, and then the government ends up having to pay for all those health bills.
01:02:51.000And so it is in the government's best interest to produce or to at least make sure that we're not producing foods that are creating things like diabetes and cancer and diabetes.
01:03:01.000When you've got Europe, it's got half of the products that are in our...
01:03:52.000I have diabetes and I've got to be very careful about what I eat.
01:03:55.000And I noticed that if I have a slice of bread that is just your regular good old-fashioned American bread, it spikes my blood sugar straight up.
01:04:04.000I think it's David's bread or Dave's killer bread, which is all organic.
01:04:26.000You know, it would have been, I made the joke before the show, so I'm not going to deliver it as well, but I was just thinking how funny it would be if, like, as soon as he got sworn in, he was like, am I HHS secretary now?
01:04:35.000And they're like, yes, vaccines are banned!
01:04:38.000And then they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:04:41.000I'm wondering how far he's going to go with it, though.
01:04:44.000I mean, like, are we going to see dramatic heavy change, or is it going to be like a light touch where, like, Lucky Charms no longer has, you know, yellow five?
01:04:51.000Well, I think the research is where it's going to matter.
01:04:54.000I mean, all this research that gets funded right now at NIH and CDC, it's all basically designed to get a particular result, right, that pushes the narrative that they want.
01:05:05.000So if he just tackles that one issue, and we actually start getting legit...
01:05:11.000You know, we actually start seeing what is actually happening.
01:05:14.000Is there a correlation between autism and some of these childhood vaccines?
01:05:24.000Well, I mean, look, I think overall the...
01:05:29.000The addition of RFK to the HHS is going to be a good thing, and I think it's in multiple aspects.
01:05:36.000I've talked a lot about the fact that the refugee resettlement program, which is under HHS, and they use that to shuffle immigrant...
01:05:47.000Asylum seekers, they call them, but essentially anyone that comes to the U.S. illegally and then they tell the people that are picking up.
01:05:55.000They'll come to the U.S. illegally, then they'll look to the border patrol and they'll say, I'm seeking asylum, which is illegal in the first place.
01:06:01.000If you want to legitimately come to the U.S. as an asylum seeker, you have to go to a port of entry.
01:06:06.000You can't just come across and tell the border patrol, oh, I'm seeking asylum.
01:06:10.000But that in and of itself is a different situation.
01:06:15.000Using HHS and American tax money to shuffle illegal immigrants around in order to change the makeup of the states that they're sending them to.
01:06:53.000And by the way, West Virginia would gain a seat.
01:06:56.000So I did the math on this because basically everything gets reapportioned.
01:07:01.000And so there are several, I think there's 14 states that would gain a seat.
01:07:05.000And you have New York, I think it was New York, Texas.
01:07:10.000Florida, California would lose some seats, but mostly California and New York.
01:07:15.000Yeah, the estimates of California are wild.
01:07:17.000Some say it could be as low as 1 or as high as 13. Yeah, that's – 7 is based off of the numbers that – I think it was 7 or 8 that was based off the numbers of what they know in terms of – Trump's got to do it.
01:07:38.000Well, Phil, what you were just talking about, though, this is part of the whole thing with the USAID, too, because that funding was going to groups like Catholic charities, Lutheran charities, which basically are sending...
01:07:50.000On our tax dollar, they're sending lawyers down there to go advise these people on how to lie in order to get into the HHS program.
01:08:01.000The USAID, and people call it USAID, and that's a terrible, terrible misnomer.
01:08:06.000It's the United States Agency for International Development.
01:08:12.000It is about exercising American soft power abroad, and that has been turned inwards.
01:08:20.000And it has been made, it was made, it probably had started before this, but it was made overtly legal with the Smith-Munt Modernization Act of 2012, I believe.
01:08:33.000The Smith-Munt Modernization Act of 2012. Obama signed that into law, which made it legal for USAID. To do operations inside the United States.
01:08:42.000Prior to the Smith Modernization Act, it was illegal for USAID to operate inside the United States.
01:08:51.000That changed in 2012. And you can see...
01:08:56.000The effect on the American population, the reason why the U.S. seems so polarized, or is so polarized now, and prior to 2012, people my age, I'm the same age as you, people our age, know what it was like, even in the 90s.
01:09:14.000Yes, back when the idea of Democrats and Republicans working together for a desired result that was good for the American people, that was something that was common.
01:09:26.000You had you had Bill Clinton said the age of big government is over because he got trounced in the midterms and he had to work with Newt Gingrich.
01:09:37.000Now, you can say you can say if you like and say, well, we didn't like these policies.
01:09:43.000The point is Bill Clinton and the Clinton administration.
01:09:47.000Took that message that was sent to his administration by the trouncing that they got in the midterms, and he changed the policies that he was going to do.
01:10:00.000And that's because they had a stranglehold on USAID and the bureaucracy.
01:10:07.000USAID had turned all of the things that worked so well to fight communism internationally at the after World War II and throughout the whole...
01:10:25.000And then when the left became ascendant, they took those same agencies and they used them against not only the right, but against the American people.
01:10:36.000Let's jump to this breaking news from Variety.
01:10:39.000TikTok has returned to Apple and the Google App Stores.
01:10:43.000I would just describe this as hypocrisy.
01:10:49.000They said the tech giants had pulled TikTok from their stores because a federal law effectively banned TikTok as of January 19th.
01:10:54.000Penalties for violating the law by hosting or distributing TikTok in the U.S. are $5,000 per user or as much as $850 billion in penalties, given TikTok's claim that it has 170 million users.
01:11:07.000As such, both Apple and Google had removed it.
01:11:09.000Trump signed an executive order instructing U.S. Attorney General to abstain for a 75-day period from enforcing the ban.
01:11:15.000The order also instructed the AG to issue a letter to each provider stating there's been no violation of the statute, that there is no liability for any conduct as of January 19th and through the 75-day extension.
01:11:25.000According to a Bloomberg report, Attorney General Pam Bondi sent both Apple and Google letters Thursday to that effect.
01:11:31.000Likely for that reason, they have now restored these apps today.
01:12:16.000And, you know, we don't want to not be on these platforms, but they won't let us on them.
01:12:20.000They outright said that we exist in a shared reality and the opinions expressed on your show don't exist within it, so you are being warned we will delete your channel.
01:13:39.000And then the argument Jimmy Kimmel made, which I'm surprised to say is a good one, is that sometimes kids grow up.
01:13:45.000And when they do, these 15-year-olds who put a whole bunch of compromising information on the platform and videos they may be embarrassed by, when they're older and they're working for the tech industry or any company, really, China's going to have information to get access to their accounts.
01:14:04.000But the big issue, in my opinion, is that TikTok largely promotes leftist ideology.
01:14:09.000So, look, the fact that they've now told us to our faces, I should say, in a warning, that the opinions expressed on this show exist outside of their shared reality, it is obvious.
01:14:21.000We are not a far-right show, by any sense of the imagination.
01:14:43.000Facebook and YouTube have these problems as well.
01:14:45.000But at the very least, they struggle against American culture and society, which largely protects this and resulted in the election of Donald Trump.
01:14:52.000Trump then caves and is now defending TikTok.
01:14:54.000And the assumption is it's because there's a powerful billionaire investor who started hiring a bunch of conservatives to flip on the issue.
01:15:05.000Well, maybe TikTok will become less leftist now that they're not getting probably all this USAID money going to half of the people that were running on there.
01:15:16.000I don't know that they're getting USAID money, but we assumed maybe because they were fearing the ban and by Donald Trump saying we're going to protect TikTok, the censorship would stop.
01:15:25.000But we had a conservative on Deborah Lea the other day saying that she got banned four times.
01:15:30.000Look, Riley, there are tons of people.
01:16:01.000But the issue is Riley Gaines, who I respect and has a good message, 600,000 followers on TikTok, Dylan Mulvaney, 13 million.
01:16:09.000So are we really going to play this game?
01:16:12.000We know TikTok is unaccountable, taking young people's data and largely pushing woke leftist ideas that will destabilize and destroy our culture and our country.
01:16:20.000For what reason are they defending it?
01:16:23.000I had a huge Discord conversation after one time we had that nice fellow Joey on.
01:16:31.000It was like three days worth of conversations and everyone's backing TikTok because of those reasons.
01:16:55.000I think that this whole issue could be solved by Meta if they would take the TikTok model, which is make sure that every single piece of content that is put on Instagram gets put into someone else's feed.
01:17:59.000They're propping up the right for their own purposes.
01:18:02.000It was over a January 6th issue, which I was kind of surprised because obviously you couldn't get anything through Facebook, through YouTube, through any of the major platforms that were in the U.S. About 12 years ago, there was this big scandal.
01:20:08.000But that's because I'm not interested in anything liberal.
01:20:11.000I mean, I get all nothing but conservatives on there.
01:20:14.000And I don't believe that there aren't people at Instagram or at YouTube that can't look at what's going on and say, okay, we've watched enough videos and have done enough studying of what TikTok does where we cannot reverse engineer.
01:20:32.000I totally believe that it's possible to reverse engineer it.
01:20:36.000And considering I believe that's possible, I don't see why another...
01:20:41.000platform doesn't adopt that because TikTok is the most successful.
01:21:05.000Because my, when I... Open Instagram, I get the people I follow, but when I go to Reels, I always get far leftists, I get crazy, like, I don't care about you.
01:21:13.000If you open Instagram, the home tab, you will get some of what you follow, followed by, it's a mix of interest and random stuff.
01:21:23.000Oh, I don't know who It's Fuzzy was, okay.
01:22:07.000So people misunderstand Section 230. Section 230 specifically says internet service providers are allowed to editorialize and delete content.
01:22:32.000So there was this confusion that came up, you know, eight years ago when everyone was talking about Section 230 because people kept saying, yeah, but are they a publisher or a platform?
01:22:42.000Literally never mattered and has nothing to do with Section 230. Section 230 just says that if you're an internet service providing, you know, people the ability to use it, not only are you not liable for the things they post, you are additionally allowed to delete.
01:22:55.000By your choosing of what you think may be obscene, and you still maintain those protections.
01:23:00.000So it explicitly states, you can delete for these reasons, and it's opinion.
01:23:11.000If they want to repeal it, then I think that would dramatically change.
01:23:13.000If they got rid of Section 230, YouTube would become CNN. YouTube would have to enter into formal contracts and then go to people and say, then they would actually say, we're going to oversee the production of your content because we won't allow you to publish certain things.
01:23:54.000When Facebook was running that fact checker program with the Pointer Institute, which they recently got rid of, you would load up, say, an article from the Federalist, and it would have a tag over it, let's say on Instagram, and it would say, fact checkers found fake information.
01:24:29.000So, Section 230 protects them, and they can act as editors, and it gives them de facto editorial powers, because then they can be like, we brought on ten people, nine of them are liberal, one's conservative, we can ban the conservative.
01:24:41.000And we get the message we want published without us having to actually say it.
01:24:46.000Do you think they'll have to pay the fines?
01:25:11.000I think it is special interest garbage, and it's the worst thing happening right now in the Trump administration.
01:25:17.000Look, make any argument you want about how you like TikTok.
01:25:20.000It still doesn't change the fact that this is the one instance where TikTok, which is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, has no stated reason for why they're protecting it from federal law.
01:25:29.000If Trump came out and said, we have been given access to the algorithm and we can hereby confirm they're changing these things, I'd be like, okay, that may be a reason.
01:26:22.000TikTok did X, Y, and Z, and for this reason, we will do A, B, and C. I'd go, oh, wow.
01:26:26.000In this instance, though, TikTok, by Trump's own words, by Charlie Kirk's own words, has been threatening the data and the privacy of Americans, which we can't track, and has also been feeding an algorithm that's telling children to commit self-harm.
01:26:41.000Conservatives get banned all the time and still do, and they've not explained to us why they're allowing it to continue operating despite its ban, except for the fact that, like...
01:26:49.000Kellyanne Conway has reportedly been lobbying on their behalf.
01:27:26.000I think he's doing great work on this regard.
01:27:28.000I will criticize him and Trump and everyone else because I don't want to live in this woke, leftist, garbage world where they say, just fall in line and do as we tell you.
01:27:36.000So if you want to come out and get me on board with your TikTok, then you've got to explain exactly what happened.
01:27:42.000And coming out and saying it helped Trump win is a lie.
01:27:44.000It may have in some capacity, but we can still see that it largely feeds woke leftists to young people and takes their data.
01:28:32.000I'll tell you what really bothers me here and why I'm so entrenched in this one.
01:28:36.000We have been fighting a culture war for some 15 years to stop the woke indoctrination on these platforms, and we have just made major, massive gains with Mark Zuckerberg coming out going oopsie-daisy, the expansion of Rumble, Rumble's near-billion-dollar investment from Tether.
01:28:53.000You've got X, you know, Elon buying Twitter, major victories in the tech space.
01:29:00.000And then the right is now like, let's give it all up and give China and the woke the ability to maintain their control.
01:29:07.000And it is basically saying, in this area where we actually have one of the biggest victories we've ever gotten in the culture war, we've literally shut down one of the biggest drivers of woke psychosis.
01:29:18.000The platform that created Dylan Mulvaney, who went around to 13 million followers and did all of these TV shows, we actually got Democrats to agree to shut it down.
01:29:40.000A lot of people wouldn't be who they are on social media if they weren't sharing TikToks from this weird, mental, deranged website that they're ruining our youth of society of America.
01:30:48.000People, what happened that it was such a bad thing a year ago, and now it's, oh, we love it, let's keep going.
01:30:53.000Simply put, why should Facebook give Donald Trump $20 million and TikTok be given free reign to skirt a federal law that was signed by the president?
01:31:02.000What did TikTok do that they don't gotta pay any money?
01:31:06.000Shouldn't TikTok, for engaging in these behaviors, have to pay a penalty of some sort?
01:31:38.000I just think that if they're going to go after TikTok...
01:31:42.000Then maybe they need to take a look at all these other corporations that are multinational corporations that have China heavily invested in them.
01:32:20.000I can't speak to whether or not Kellyanne Conway or any other people that have access to the president are speaking for pay on TikTok's behalf.
01:34:29.000Share the show with everyone you know.
01:34:32.000And in about half an hour, for those that are watching at rumble.com slash timcast IRL, Rumble Premium, we will have the uncensored members call-in show portion of the show.
01:34:42.000So you can go to timcastpremium.com, the fastest way to sign up.
01:34:46.000You can use promo code TIM10. You get $10 off your annual membership.
01:34:50.000And we got a bunch of behind-the-scenes content.
01:35:59.000Well, so what we're trying to do to this new member is, the first thing is, because it was somewhat in jest, where it's like, I don't know, because the joke I was making was that the president needs access to my phone number, so we'll create the Trump tier, $1,000 a month, and then they can call me when they need me.
01:36:15.000And then I said, I'll give you my number.
01:38:14.000Well, I mean, like, it's a mom-and-pop media shop, and basically, I host shows, and I tell people where to stand, and then Allison is actually like...
01:38:23.000Putting the gears in place and making the machine operate.
01:38:26.000And so as the company expands and it gets crazier, and she's asking me how big it's going to get, I'm like, it's your fault.
01:39:50.000Guys, I don't know who was doing it, but when I was out for dental work, somebody must not have realized that Slack on this machine is logged into me.
01:41:03.000Yeah, so just to clarify again, I know it's kind of confusing, but...
01:41:07.000All of our exclusive content, the documentaries we're making, the behind-the-scenes content, it's all Rumble Premium.
01:41:12.000But we have a Discord community of tens of thousands of people, and we, like, there was...
01:41:18.000You know, I told Rumble guys, like, hey, look, we're not turning that off.
01:41:21.000It has to keep functioning, it has to keep existing, it has to be able to grow, and we have to be able to hire the people and run it and maintain it.
01:41:25.000And they were just like, yeah, of course, absolutely, totally cool.
01:41:36.000Yeah, just real quick, shout-out to the volunteers for the OG Rumble, because you guys, I mean, so the OG Discord folks, you guys really helped us get it off the ground.
01:41:45.000And now you got Roma, you got QuietPart, Outloud Podcast, you got the call-ins.
01:41:50.000A lot of the volunteers are freaking amazing over there.
01:44:14.000Vic the Fix says, Now that we're in the weeds and rooting out the wasteful spending and fraud, we need to get Congress to pass a single-issue voting bill when we can.
01:44:27.000Death Magnet says, If Trump wants to help 2A, he needs to sign an executive order declaring the NFA of 1934, the GCA of 1968, and the Hughes Amendment to the Firearms Owners Protection Act of 1986 all unconstitutional.
01:45:10.000They see an R by your name, and they vote for it, and they know it, apparently.
01:45:14.000Well, you see what happened was, Kentucky doesn't want to vote against Mitch McConnell because they feel bad for him because, you know, he falls a lot.
01:45:21.000So, in order to make up for it, in order to make up for sending us such an awful senator, they said, we'll give you Rand Paul, though it bounces out.
01:45:47.000Joe Spinell says, There's multiple reasons I haven't filed an income tax since 2010. Yes, I've responded to every letter kindly asking them for a bill of receipt or a list of damages to settle privately.
01:45:56.000Haven't heard from them now for five years.
01:46:00.000I don't know why you would call into a regularly watched show like Tim Cass and say that, but more power to you.
01:46:09.000Well, like I was saying, I had a friend who said they got a bill from the IRS saying they owed money, and they responded back with, okay, prove it.
01:46:38.000But as other people have said before, when debt collectors call you, you just tell them, like, can you send me whatever you have on file showing this debt?
01:48:48.000But what I can do is say, I apologize sincerely.
01:48:56.000There is a reality to a lot of this stuff, and it is unfortunate when we get messages from people where they're like, hey, I've been trying to reach out to membership and I'm not getting support.
01:49:03.000And it's like, the hard reality is we are trying as hard as we can.
01:49:07.000And it's not that we don't like you or we're ignoring you.
01:50:11.000It's funny because a lot of people, like, they'll get really mad at us, and I'm like, dude, like, we're going as fast as we can with all of this.
01:51:34.000I'm hoping that they fix the stupid Uber laws, and I hope the people of West Virginia hear this, the politicians, because I know that they're listening.
01:51:41.000And with all due respect, we've lost three people because of the restrictions put on us over this, and it's ridiculous because there's no circumstance where we could have hired them.
01:51:53.000I don't want to say too much because I want to violate the privacy of the individuals who have decided to part ways.
01:51:58.000But if there is somebody who makes paintings, and we don't, and they are being told by the state to start a company and, you know, fill all this stuff out and they're like, I don't do enough work in the state to care about this.
01:52:12.000And then they're like, I'm just sorry, I'm not interested.
01:53:21.000I can't say too much because, you know, it's Chef Andrew Gruul, the famous Chef Andrew Gruul, who's basically running and managing that side of things for us.
01:53:33.000What I'm hoping to do, and again, I'm not saying this definitively, but when a new location opens, we go there and we do the grand opening night, Timcast IRL from the new locations.
01:54:51.000Fear Me 16 says, did you see what Trump said today about talks with Russia and China to reduce spending on defense by 50% and to reduce nukes worldwide?
01:55:12.000It was a funny thing when, like, white nationalists are doing their thing, and I'm like, not a fan, don't like them, but the issue is not so much if someone came to me and then they said that they thought America should be for white people, and that's about it, I'd be like, okay.
01:55:39.000If someone comes to me and says they're a white nationalist, I'll be like, we can have the debate, sure.
01:55:43.000But if someone comes to me and says they're a white nationalist, and then they keep banging their fists on the table screaming at the Jews, I'm like, bro, I'm not interested in your obsessions.
01:55:51.000I am a nationalist, and I so happen to be white, but I just, I love America, so I feel like everyone should be supportive of their country, sir.
01:56:02.000It's so weird that they tried making nationalist a bad thing.
01:56:05.000Yes, it's pride for your country, pride for your nation.
01:56:07.000Well, they want people to be globalist.
01:56:09.000But the funny thing is, they said globalist was an anti-Semitic slur.
01:57:26.000Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the U.S. or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
01:58:44.000It's that people want to work because they're bored.
01:58:47.000So when given an opportunity to go do something, they'll say, yeah, I'll go do it.
01:58:49.000Like, the people who fight wildfires for California, it's like, you will get to go outside and travel around, and you'll get to eat fast food, and they're like, yeah, I want out of here, you know?
01:58:59.000Yeah, being in a concrete block cell is never the best time.
01:59:05.000Rachel Napstein says, Tim, I filed my taxes last Saturday and got my Fed returned today.
01:59:09.000That's the fastest I ever got them back.
02:00:01.000RT already got banned, and the law specifically states a platform with over a million users that allows people to do this, that it's like, it's specifically TikTok.
02:01:17.000My friends, smash the like button, share the show with everyone you know.
02:01:20.000For those that are watching on Rumble, we are about to head into the uncensored member call-in portion of the show where you as members get to call in and talk to us and our guest.
