Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - EPSTEIN Files DROP, FBI GOES ROGUE, AG Says They COVERED UP Epstein Case w-Amber Duke | Timcast IRL

00:00:21.000 Today, the Epstein files dropped, but it's a large nothing burger.

00:00:26.000 Sorry, guys.

00:00:27.000 Thanks for watching.

00:00:28.000 Have a nice day.

00:00:29.000 Smash a like button on your way out, and there's no...

00:00:31.000 No, I'm kidding.

00:00:31.000 So, surprised was I when I see this photo of the White House with a ton of influencers, many of whom, like, I think every single one of them have been on the show, and they're all holding up binders.

00:00:42.000 The Epstein files, phase one.

00:00:45.000 Well, sure enough, an unnamed source reached out to me and basically gave me the entire scoop on how this all went down.

00:00:53.000 This was not a planned event.

00:00:55.000 I believe none of the influencers went to the White House knew they would be handed this packet, this binder.

00:01:01.000 The information was embargoed until a certain amount of time, though some people still were able to, did leak and release the information ahead of time.

00:01:10.000 The information released is new, a lot of it.

00:01:13.000 But it's largely being viewed as not much.

00:01:17.000 Now, the real story is that the AG Pan Bondi released a letter effectively saying the Southern District of New York FBI field office has gone rogue, has ignored her orders, defied her as the AG and refused to turn over evidence and thousands of pages of Epstein documents.

00:01:35.000 There's a lot of conspiracies swirling around how this went down, but based on the information that I have gathered from numerous individuals, this looks like a stunt of some sort.

00:01:43.000 That there was an intention to drum up some PR around the Epstein files, and there's a few theories.

00:01:48.000 One, that the SDNY has gone rogue, and thus the AG is trying to find a way to generate public sentiment that would allow them to make a move against them to get these documents.

00:01:59.000 According to this letter, the Epstein files should be in the hands...

00:02:03.000 of the AG by tomorrow at 8 a.m., but that doesn't mean they will be released.

00:02:08.000 Another view is that this stunt was done to buy time for the AG to be able to go through these documents or delay their release.

00:02:15.000 And lastly, the big conspiracy is this stunt was performed to throw SD and Southern District of New York under the bus so that they can later claim the documents had been destroyed.

00:02:26.000 As we had already heard earlier in the week, a whistleblower said the FBI had been destroying Epstein evidence.

00:02:31.000 Then, A week from now or whatever, as the conspiracy theorists believe, Pam Bondi or someone in the government is going to come out and be like, oh no, oh, they've destroyed all the evidence.

00:02:40.000 We really don't know.

00:02:42.000 But I'm going to give you the full details the best I can.

00:02:45.000 We also have a bunch of other news, of course.

00:02:47.000 We've got a crazy story about a trans individual who was arrested trying to plant bombs. 0.97

00:05:28.000 I'm back.

00:05:29.000 You would normally find me on Pop Culture Crisis here at TimCast.

00:05:34.000 Please like me.

00:05:36.000 What's up, everybody?

00:05:37.000 My name's Phil Labonte.

00:05:38.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains.

00:05:40.000 I'm an anti-communist and counter-revolutionary.

00:05:42.000 Let's go.

00:05:43.000 You like that.

00:05:43.000 Ladies and gentlemen, let's get started with the letter in question.

00:05:48.000 So earlier today, I saw this viral photo of many individuals that were holding up these Epstein binders.

00:05:57.000 Can we pull this one up?

00:05:58.000 So this is a letter that was accompanying the binders themselves.

00:06:01.000 It's a letter from A.G. Pamela Bondi.

00:06:05.000 And it reads, Late yesterday I learned from a source that the FBI field office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and indictment of

00:06:35.000 Epstein.

00:06:36.000 Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of these files.

00:06:40.000 When you and I spoke yesterday, you were just as surprised as I was to learn this new information.

00:06:44.000 By 8 a.m. tomorrow, February 28th, the FBI will deliver the full and complete Epstein files to my office, including all records, documents, audio and video recordings and materials related to Jeffrey Epstein and his clients, regardless of how such information was obtained.

00:06:58.000 There will be no withholdings or limitations to my or your access.

00:07:01.000 The Department of Justice will ensure that any public disclosure of these files will be done in a matter to protect the privacy of victims and in accordance with the law.

00:07:09.000 As I have done my entire career as a prosecutor, I am also directing you to conduct an immediate investigation into why my order to the FBI was not followed.

00:07:16.000 You will deliver to me a comprehensive report of your findings and proposed personal personnel action within 14 days.

00:07:23.000 I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter, to this important matter.

00:07:27.000 I know that we are both committed to transparency for the American people, and I look forward to continuing to work with you to serve our president and our country.

00:07:35.000 Now, the information that's come out so far has since been published on Justice.gov.

00:07:40.000 Attorney General Pamela Bondi releases first phase of declassified Epstein files.

00:07:44.000 When the files first were released in these binders, the individuals at the White House were instructed there would be an embargo.

00:07:51.000 And this means, for those that aren't familiar, you cannot release this until a certain date or time.

00:07:57.000 It was supposed to be a couple hours after they received these binders, they could start releasing information.

00:08:02.000 Many people began to wonder why it was.

00:08:05.000 A number of these influencers had very similar statements about transparency and the greatest, most transparent administration, despite not actually releasing any of this information.

00:08:15.000 Later on the day, only a few hours ago, several of these individuals began to scan and publish these files.

00:08:22.000 Interestingly, as an aside...

00:08:23.000 I saw Laura Loomer working very hard to get these documents released, working with Haya Reichich, who had one of these binders, and they kept getting suspended on these various platforms for some reason or another.

00:08:33.000 They did eventually get released, and then we actually have the Justice Department publishing all of the information, which are largely flight logs.

00:08:41.000 An evidence list, a contact book, and a masseuse list, which is presumably victims.

00:08:46.000 Let me give you the quick breakdown, as it was told to be by a couple different individuals who attended.

00:08:52.000 You may have seen the photos.

00:08:53.000 Actually, I wonder if I have the photo I can pull up somewhere.

00:08:57.000 I do, in fact, have one of the photos.

00:09:00.000 This is an image of, we've got DC Drano, we've got Haya Rychik, we've got Liz Wheeler, Mike Cernovich, all holding up these binders that read Epstein Files, Phase 1. Now, I've spoken with a handful of these people.

00:09:13.000 Some are very happy, some are a little bit perturbed.

00:09:16.000 It appears that this was a PR stunt.

00:09:18.000 So let me give you the breakdown.

00:09:20.000 This was not a planned event as far as I know.

00:09:22.000 You may be thinking, how come Tim wasn't there at that event?

00:09:25.000 Well, it wasn't a planned event.

00:09:27.000 This was, at some point, several individuals were invited to do a meet and greet and talk with the press team in the White House.

00:09:35.000 None of them had any idea that they would be handed, or at least as far as I know, the individuals I've spoken to, none of them had any idea that they'd be handed these binders.

00:09:43.000 When they were, they were told that there was an embargo until something was going to happen related to the release.

00:09:49.000 So don't show off anything that's in it.

00:09:51.000 Now, the question then becomes, how do these photos emerge?

00:09:55.000 Well, I can only assume, based on the fact the White House has numerous exits.

00:10:00.000 And the fact they handed very big binders to prominent conservative influencers, the intention was to lead them out where the press was and get the press to take all of these photos, thus creating a massive press storm for this.

00:10:13.000 At the same time, this letter was released and ended up dropping earlier than the embargo was supposed to be.

00:10:19.000 And the letter...

00:10:21.000 Doesn't need to exist.

00:10:22.000 Many people have rightly questioned this.

00:10:24.000 Why would the attorney general write a letter to Kash Patel where she literally says, I talked to you yesterday?

00:10:31.000 You don't need to do that.

00:10:32.000 She could simply send him a text message.

00:10:34.000 That would imply the purpose of this letter was to create public notification that with the release of this letter and conservative influencers getting access to it, the public would be made aware that the attorney general is deeply.

00:10:47.000 Angered by the fact that the Southern District of New York, the FBI field office, was intentionally withholding Epstein documents in defiance of the AG's order.

00:10:57.000 There's a lot of conspiracies running around as to why this is.

00:11:00.000 I'm going to go with Occam's razor. 0.75

00:11:01.000 I believe SDNY is deeply corrupt.

00:11:04.000 This is the same office that was going after James O'Keefe.

00:11:07.000 This is New York where they went after Trump with fake criminal charges.

00:11:11.000 I do not believe these people are honest and I believe that it is reasonable to assume.

00:11:16.000 FBI New York has gone rogue.

00:11:18.000 That is, they're defying the orders of this elected government and the Attorney General.

00:11:22.000 And thus, if I was going to make an assumption, obviously, I think it's fair to say this is a PR maneuver.

00:11:29.000 That's why the letter exists.

00:11:31.000 Otherwise, it doesn't need to.

00:11:32.000 Having these influencers with millions of followers plus combined being photographed by the press in every direction, that can't be an accident.

00:11:42.000 I think what happens is...

00:11:44.000 Pam Bondi knows SDNY is rogue and is defying her orders and instructions.

00:11:49.000 But how do you deal with these people if she comes out and says, we're going to send in the troops and go raid this office? 0.99

00:11:55.000 First of all, you're going to get a huge backlash politically.

00:11:58.000 It's going to generate confusion.

00:11:59.000 And more importantly, they may scramble and begin to start destroying files.

00:12:03.000 A move like this can put scrutiny on the office, making it very difficult for them to move things in or out without getting public attention, as she has just called them out directly as the office.

00:12:13.000 Simply put, I believe that Pam Bondi wanted there to be a major press storm pertaining to the rogue office in New York to give them public support for actions against them so Kash Patel can move in without any kind of backlash, without any kind of evidence destruction, or at least to the best of their abilities, they could move in.

00:12:32.000 I don't know for sure, but there are some people who believe the purpose of this is to scapegoat the Southern District of New York FBI office so that...

00:12:41.000 In the coming days, when they eventually do not release the Epstein documents, which everyone's been demanding, they can say the evidence has been destroyed.

00:12:50.000 Find a scapegoat patsy of some random lawyer or analyst and say he did it.

00:12:56.000 And then who knows why.

00:12:58.000 But I don't know for sure, so I'm curious.

00:13:00.000 What the panel thinks.

00:13:01.000 Well, I was talking to Chad Prather earlier, who was one of the influencers who was there.

00:13:05.000 I actually ran into him on my way to Newsmax in the elevator.

00:13:08.000 And he was confirming what you said, that he did not think that he was going to the White House to get the Epstein files.

00:13:14.000 They were there to meet with Vice President J.D. Vance to talk about messaging for the administration, the conservative movement.

00:13:21.000 And basically this got dropped on their laps.

00:13:24.000 They told them that they weren't supposed to open these binders until after they left the White House.

00:13:29.000 One thing of note in here in these pictures that I'm seeing is that they're being escorted back from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which is right next door to the White House and is where a lot of these meetings take place.

00:13:39.000 And they go right to this area, which is known among the press corps as the sticks, which is where when foreign leaders, other politicians go to meet with the president, they will leave through the Oval Office door that's right there on the left where the Marines are standing.

00:13:54.000 And the sticks are where they do interviews with the press.

00:13:56.000 And that's where they took the photo op.

00:13:59.000 So, wait.

00:14:00.000 They could have walked them out any other exit.

00:14:03.000 They could have taken them out through the EEOB street exit, or they could have just kept going past the press tents, what's known as Pebble Beach, where all the green tents are, where the correspondents do their interviews.

00:14:14.000 But they took them over to the Oval, where the sticks are, and then had this huge photo op.

00:14:20.000 So, it's a stunt.

00:14:22.000 Obviously.

00:14:23.000 But what's the purpose of it?

00:14:25.000 I... So, I'm not as optimistic as you that this was all to just call out the SDNY. I think Pam Bondi overpromised a bit because she was on Jesse Waters last night talking about how this was all so sick and the first batch was going to come out, but she didn't hint that this was going to be...

00:14:42.000 I mean, if you look at the masseuse list, for example, the entire thing is just blacked out, which is understandable because these are victims, right?

00:14:48.000 You can't put out their names.

00:14:49.000 But then all of the addresses, phone numbers, everything is all redacted.

00:14:53.000 The only thing you get are the names in Epstein's address book.

00:14:56.000 This is a guy with tons of money, tons of influence and access.

00:15:00.000 Of course, everybody is in that access book, so it doesn't really tell us anything.

00:15:04.000 The only thing of note, which Chad admitted to me, was this letter in the front of it.

00:15:08.000 That they wanted to put out.

00:15:10.000 But I think it's simultaneously putting the burden on SDNY, but also the Trump admin a little bit covering their butts because they have been promising these documents.

00:15:19.000 I feel like if she didn't have the thousand documents that she's talking about on her desk, then she shouldn't have been making this big show of it until she had access to them.

00:15:28.000 And that's interesting.

00:15:29.000 Because I'm going to say it again, Occam's razor.

00:15:31.000 What is the simple solution here?

00:15:32.000 And what I should say is, it bears clarification, in the absence of evidence, the solution that makes the least amount of assumptions tends to be correct.

00:15:40.000 That is, Pam Bondi overpromised on TV, probably unscripted, Jesse Waters, when she said, I've got it on my desk.

00:15:48.000 And maybe it's just...

00:15:50.000 You're on TV. There's no prompter.

00:15:52.000 You're in the heat of the moment.

00:15:53.000 And you just say, look, I got it on my desk.

00:15:55.000 And they're like, you do?

00:15:56.000 And then she went, oh crap, I've got some flight logs on my desk.

00:15:59.000 Realized it was a big nothing burger and needed to figure something out. 0.68

00:16:02.000 That seems to make sense.

00:16:03.000 However, it's not necessarily the simplest of solutions.

00:16:08.000 We know that, look, Southern District of New York went after James O'Keefe.

00:16:13.000 This is the same.

00:16:14.000 It's not the same office necessarily that went after Trump, but it is New York.

00:16:18.000 In this same jurisdiction, essentially, at the state level, that went after Donald Trump with false charges.

00:16:24.000 I am not surprised in the least bit to hear that the AG requested documents and they did not turn them over and are resisting because of all of the offices, this is the one that's presumed to be the most, well, there's two, the D.C. field office and I believe SDNY were considered to be deeply corrupt.

00:16:42.000 So I do believe it's entirely possible that Pam Bondi was like, She got a call.

00:16:48.000 Well, actually, let's pause.

00:16:50.000 She did go on TV and said, I got the Epstein list on my desk.

00:16:53.000 But the story is also that it wasn't until last night, I believe, that she got a call from a whistleblower saying there's more documents.

00:17:00.000 So she did promise this would be it.

00:17:02.000 I think it's fair to say that the SDNY is probably doing what she's accusing them of.

00:17:08.000 But I would say, you know, she did a press conference, I think it was last week, announcing that she was filing these charges against Letitia James and Kathy Hochul and the DMV guy in New York.

00:17:18.000 And that got tons of press attention.

00:17:20.000 So I don't know why she couldn't have done the exact same thing to levy the charges against the SDNY. Why do you have to trot out the influencers with this binder?

00:17:29.000 I just did a quick search on this.

00:17:31.000 This is the office where they were going after Eric Adams.

00:17:35.000 And when Pam Bondi and the Trump administration instructed them to drop the charges, they started resigning en masse.

00:17:41.000 Like, these people are deep, like, leftist ideologues.

00:17:47.000 Maybe there's nothing related to the Epstein list.

00:17:49.000 Maybe they're trying to find a way to purge out this ideologically driven office.

00:17:53.000 Who knows?

00:17:54.000 Could be.

00:17:55.000 But I'll tell you, they're claiming, Pam Bondi says you will, the FBI will, she's basically telling Cash, like, I'm your boss, I want the FBI to give me these documents tomorrow morning.

00:18:04.000 The question is, tomorrow, 12 hours from now, are they going to get them?

00:18:07.000 I don't know.

00:18:08.000 I really hope they do.

00:18:09.000 I think that, I think there's a lot of people that are going to look at this and they're just going to feel like the administration is dodging.

00:18:18.000 Yeah.

00:18:19.000 And regardless of...

00:18:21.000 If substance doesn't come soon, and I think that this even overshadows the letter that she sent to New York's Southern District, which I do think that it's likely that they're covering stuff up.

00:18:38.000 They're trying to protect people that have been somehow broken the law or whatever.

00:18:46.000 But I think that it's a bad look to...

00:18:51.000 I've got a clarification and a correction.

00:18:53.000 I just did a quick search.

00:18:55.000 The Southern District of New York has conducted multiple investigations involving Trump.

00:19:00.000 The Michael Cohen investigation, the inaugural committee investigation, attempts to influence SDNY.

00:19:06.000 So the Cohen thing is particularly interesting.

00:19:08.000 In August 2018, SDNY prosecutors charged Michael Cohen, Trump's former attorney with campaign finance violations related to hush money payments to Stormy Daniels.

00:19:16.000 So that is the hush money case that they've brought against Trump.

00:19:20.000 I believe that was at the state level, though.

00:19:22.000 I could be wrong.

00:19:24.000 My apologies, but, like, so much has happened, it kind of just muddles together, you know?

00:19:30.000 The theory that this is some kind of 4D chess scheme on Pam Bondi's part against SDNY just doesn't hold up, in my view.

00:19:40.000 I think it's true that she overpromised and maybe an unintended consequence is that people are realizing the corruption of SDNY. But I do not believe the narrative that she was planning this whole press manipulation all along to turn people's attention.

00:19:55.000 And even if she did, it's clearly not working because the main narrative that I'm seeing so far is that people are angry at her and at the Trump administration for overpromising and what appears to be lying to the public about what they were going to get access to.

00:20:12.000 And that's what I'm mad about.

00:20:13.000 It also doesn't justify the fact that the House Judiciary official account for the House Judiciary GOP rickrolled us.

00:20:24.000 Yeah, that's really bad.

00:20:25.000 First of all, that's not even a funny meme in 2025. It's been like 15 years since anyone thought that was funny.

00:20:31.000 But second of all, that is so deeply disrespectful, not only to the people who voted this administration into power, but also deeply disrespectful to the victims of child trafficking that are in question.

00:20:43.000 Let me pull this up.

00:20:44.000 We have this tweet from the House Judiciary GOP breaking Epstein files released.

00:20:50.000 And there's a link here.

00:20:51.000 Should I click the link?

00:20:52.000 I'll click the link.

00:20:54.000 And it redirects to TinyURL, which redirects to YouTube.

00:20:57.000 I love how they blocked the Rickroll.

00:20:59.000 They're like, don't do it.

00:21:00.000 Don't click it.

00:21:03.000 Okay, we get it.

00:21:04.000 This lit people up.

00:21:07.000 4.5 million views.

00:21:09.000 George Alexopoulos, a.k.a. 0.96

00:21:11.000 GPrime85, says, women were raped. 0.99

00:21:13.000 The monsters who organized and participated still walk among us, and you're joking about it.

00:21:18.000 4.5 million views and 6.1 thousand likes.

00:21:23.000 Like, this is not a good look.

00:21:24.000 No, not at all.

00:21:26.000 Absolutely not.

00:21:26.000 So even if this was some kind of, like, grand scheme that Pam Bondi formulated to turn media attention to state corruption, it's not working.

00:21:38.000 It just makes you look like an idiot. 1.00

00:21:40.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:21:40.000 I mean, there are people in my mentions on Twitter that are just like, yo, let Tim know that everybody's blah, blah, blah, that are, like, genuinely angry about this situation. 1.00

00:21:50.000 There's other people who are coping and they're like, no, it's actually hilarious if you really squint and tilt your head and think about it.

00:21:56.000 It's not funny.

00:21:58.000 No, not at all.

00:21:58.000 It's not funny at all.

00:21:59.000 And then there are other people, when I pointed this out, saying like, oh, well, someone's jealous that they weren't invited to the wedding.

00:22:05.000 Oh, that's so annoying.

00:22:06.000 I will say, a lot of people are jealous they were not invited to this thing.

00:22:11.000 Absolutely.

00:22:11.000 There were people who were.

00:22:12.000 I would say, on the influencer side, though, I mean, I know a lot of these people.

00:22:16.000 I'm friends with a lot of these people.

00:22:17.000 I like them.

00:22:18.000 I respect them.

00:22:19.000 If I had gotten this document, I would have been immediately scanning everything as quickly as possible and I would have had a link with all of the documents in it.

00:22:27.000 Like, I would not be posting repeated pictures.

00:22:30.000 I would not be posting the press statement from the White House about how this is the most transparent administration in history.

00:22:36.000 Give people the information.

00:22:38.000 Like, I'm not trying to wait for libs of TikTok to go through and give me the highlights.

00:22:41.000 No offense.

00:22:42.000 I mean, who cares about that?

00:22:43.000 Get invited to the White House.

00:22:44.000 I'm sure it was a lame party anyway.

00:22:46.000 I mean, right?

00:22:47.000 That line, though, the line that they kept repeating about this is the most transparent administration in history.

00:22:54.000 It was copy and pasted.

00:22:56.000 It sounded like, this is why I don't think it was necessarily something they were blindsided by.

00:23:02.000 It sounds like something was sent to them in an email for social media deliverables.

00:23:06.000 They were blindsided.

00:23:08.000 And why are they copy and pasting the same statement over and over all over the timeline?

00:23:13.000 So, first I will say this.

00:23:16.000 It's not that I'm jealous that they didn't invite me.

00:23:19.000 It's that I'm hurt.

00:23:22.000 Disappointed.

00:23:22.000 My friends flew in to D.C. and didn't tell me they were coming.

00:23:27.000 And I'm calling people.

00:23:28.000 I'm like, bro, are you in D.C.? Come on, man.

00:23:30.000 At least come get a burger with me.

00:23:32.000 I don't care about the White House.

00:23:34.000 How could you guys?

00:23:35.000 No, but I talked to a handful of people, and that actually is genuinely why I believe they were blindsided by this.

00:23:42.000 A handful of these people are good friends of ours, friends of the show.

00:23:45.000 And I asked them, and I was like, hey, what went down today?

00:23:47.000 And they were like, we had no idea this was happening.

00:23:50.000 And some of my friends were like, bro, if they told us we were going to do something, I would have hit you up immediately and said, bro, come quick.

00:23:55.000 You know what I mean?

00:23:56.000 And I'm like, oh, it's whatever.

00:23:57.000 The only thing that I was saying is, come on the show, man.

00:24:00.000 But everybody's flying out.

00:24:02.000 Everybody's like, I can't because we're leaving.

00:24:03.000 We came in here for a meet and greet.

00:24:05.000 I do believe...

00:24:06.000 That most of the people had no idea this was going to happen.

00:24:10.000 Now, the question is, why are they all tweeting the most transparent administration?

00:24:13.000 Why are they all taking selfies?

00:24:15.000 There's a reason why I think the people who got invited got invited.

00:24:19.000 I don't mean to be disrespectful to them, but they're not journalists.

00:24:24.000 Now, some of them are.

00:24:26.000 Some of them are.

00:24:27.000 But they're largely personalities and influencers.

00:24:30.000 They lean more towards the influencer space.

00:24:33.000 But I don't want to say that of all of them, because I don't want to impute anyone's honor.

00:24:36.000 I think Mike Cernovich certainly does.

00:24:38.000 He deserves half the credit for the breaking of the Epstein story in the first place, because he worked, I think it was with Mike.

00:24:42.000 He worked on this filing documents to get it released.

00:24:44.000 So did, I believe it was the Miami Herald.

00:24:46.000 I could be wrong.

00:24:47.000 So some of these people there, you'll see they're not posting these selfies.

00:24:51.000 But I think the strategy from the White House was, we don't want Amber Duke to show up.

00:24:56.000 Start scanning the documents right away.

00:24:58.000 We want people who are going to be happy to be here, who are going to say, look, the message is we are being transparent.

00:25:04.000 We are the most transparent.

00:25:05.000 Here's the binder.

00:25:07.000 Don't share anything that's in it just yet.

00:25:09.000 And what are a bunch of these people going to do?

00:25:11.000 Selfie!

00:25:11.000 Bang!

00:25:12.000 Look at me.

00:25:12.000 I got a binder.

00:25:13.000 People were straight up tweeting, I got a binder.

00:25:16.000 And it's like...

00:25:16.000 Okay, dude.

00:25:17.000 I don't care.

00:25:18.000 What's in it?

00:25:19.000 Taking the selfie in and of itself is so ghoulish.

00:25:23.000 You know?

00:25:24.000 Like, there's no sensitivity.

00:25:26.000 It's not sensitivity.

00:25:27.000 There's no gesture at understanding the gravity of the situation.

00:25:32.000 I feel that I have to share this now to get ahead of it because this is a brewing scandal.

00:25:38.000 I was forced to take a selfie with the Epstein binder. 0.71

00:25:41.000 You were?

00:25:42.000 At Newsmax.

00:25:43.000 Of course.

00:25:44.000 I was mic'd up.

00:25:46.000 I didn't know what to do.

00:25:47.000 And I'm in a selfie with the Epstein binder, and I'm so sorry. 0.89

00:25:51.000 Did someone say, like, hey, get a picture of the binder?

00:25:53.000 Yeah, because the issue is...

00:25:55.000 It's tough.

00:25:55.000 Tough look.

00:25:56.000 This is PR strategy.

00:25:58.000 So, look, Mary, you're correct that Pambani didn't plan this 4-D chess in weeks in advance, but certainly whatever happened today was pre-planned in that...

00:26:07.000 They made binders and made this letter to Cash.

00:26:10.000 She could have literally called Cash and say, yo, WTF, like, they're not giving me the documents.

00:26:14.000 Get me those documents.

00:26:15.000 Click.

00:26:16.000 End of story.

00:26:17.000 She drafted this beautiful letter and then gave it to everybody.

00:26:19.000 That was a PR stunt for whatever reason, for whatever it was planned.

00:26:22.000 It literally happened.

00:26:24.000 Someone super chatted very simply, why was their messaging the same?

00:26:28.000 They all just got out of a messaging meeting with Vance.

00:26:31.000 They were going to meet with Vance about messaging.

00:26:34.000 And Vance was probably like, we're the most transparent administration ever.

00:26:38.000 And they were handing the binders out, and then everybody tweeted it.

00:26:42.000 Literally not every single person tweeted it, but a lot of them did.

00:26:45.000 Not because they were told to do it, but because they were told it.

00:26:49.000 What, they just have peanuts for brains? 0.70

00:26:52.000 Talk to them about that.

00:26:53.000 Just repeating the words that they heard.

00:26:56.000 It sounds like it was in an email, in a PR packet.

00:27:01.000 That was given to the influencers ahead of time or afterwards.

00:27:04.000 Yeah, they might have gotten a fact sheet after.

00:27:07.000 Yes.

00:27:07.000 That's pretty common.

00:27:09.000 They'll do a briefing and then they'll send a fact sheet once you leave to help inform your stories.

00:27:13.000 That's what they do.

00:27:14.000 The people that I spoke to who were there, a handful of them, and they all told me the same thing, and they're not lying to me.

00:27:21.000 These are people that I deeply trust.

00:27:24.000 That we've had on the show that have confided in me crazy things in the past that have said, you know, either something will be on background or off the record.

00:27:32.000 And I maintain that privacy for a lot of these individuals.

00:27:35.000 And I have heard the same story, even independent of what I was told.

00:27:40.000 Amber had the same story from Chad being like, we didn't even know this was happening.

00:27:43.000 Well, in that case, I'm going to believe it was bullet points that were given to them after the fact.

00:27:47.000 That makes sense.

00:27:48.000 A fact sheet.

00:27:49.000 Or like talking points.

00:27:50.000 Yeah, and that's pretty standard.

00:27:52.000 Right, and not everybody tweeted the same thing, but a lot of them did.

00:27:57.000 Yeah, like I said, I mean, as far as I'm concerned, this is an unforced error, and there are people that were already deeply skeptical of Pam Bondi.

00:28:07.000 Now, they are a narrow group of people, people that are gun owners and 2A advocates and stuff.

00:28:13.000 They were...

00:28:14.000 You know, very skeptical of Pam Bondi, and I think that this did nothing to help that skepticism.

00:28:21.000 Not that it's not the end of the world, but it does make the administration look kind of...

00:28:28.000 You know, makes them look bad.

00:28:30.000 And now they really have to deliver now because this was bungled and people are more focused on the influencer part of it than they are on what was in the files because the files had nothing in them.

00:28:40.000 So if they don't release Phase 2 or Phase 3 and those are not bombshells, they're in trouble.

00:28:45.000 There are two potential outcomes, two principal outcomes from this that I think are most likely.

00:28:50.000 One is tomorrow morning, someone cash or otherwise they confirm the documents.

00:28:56.000 In full have been transferred to the AG's office and they're working on redactions or whatever, wherever that leads.

00:29:01.000 The other is SDNY gets raided by the D.C. office or some law enforcement because the message that Pam Bondi has sent out is FBI's field office has gone rogue and has defied the orders of the attorney general.

00:29:15.000 If tomorrow morning they do not confirm receipt of these documents, they may as well say, we have no power.

00:29:24.000 And the FBI office is its own agency, independent of our government.

00:29:28.000 Look, if Internal Affairs raids the FBI Southern District offices and stuff tomorrow, if they're gearing up for a full-on FBI raiding the FBI raid...

00:29:39.000 How could they not?

00:29:40.000 I would love to see it.

00:29:41.000 I would love to see it.

00:29:42.000 Unless they say, we got the documents.

00:29:44.000 And then if they do, it's going to be people outside screaming, rabble, rabble, rabble, demanding the documents be published.

00:29:50.000 So...

00:29:51.000 How do they navigate whatever this is?

00:29:53.000 Whether it's an...

00:29:54.000 What did you call it?

00:29:55.000 Unforced error?

00:29:56.000 Yeah, unforced error.

00:29:57.000 Either it's...

00:29:57.000 Or it's on purpose.

00:29:58.000 The principal outcomes are going to be it is substantially worse now that this story is so massive.

00:30:05.000 It's a Thursday night. 0.99

00:30:06.000 We shouldn't be getting this viewership 4.5 million views on a stupid joke. 0.96

00:30:11.000 The attention on this is massive because people want the Epstein information. 0.93

00:30:15.000 If SDNY does not deliver, or for that matter, if they do...

00:30:20.000 And Pam Bondi says they didn't.

00:30:22.000 People are going to be screaming outside of SDNY demanding law enforcement move in.

00:30:27.000 So whatever happened today, it has created a tinderbox for tomorrow.

00:30:32.000 Something has to happen.

00:30:33.000 Yeah, and this early in the administration, you don't want to have a significant, serious shake in faith, you know, of the people actually doing things.

00:30:48.000 I mean, I see you smirking, Mayor.

00:30:51.000 You're a skeptic of everything all the time anyways, and you're like, ah, let it burn.

00:30:55.000 It's strange to me that this became happening in the first place because most people who voted for Trump don't...

00:31:02.000 Don't care about the Epstein files.

00:31:05.000 They just care about getting inflation under control and closing the border.

00:31:09.000 Yeah, I agree.

00:31:09.000 So why are we even...

00:31:10.000 If you weren't planning to deliver on the promise, well, first of all, don't promise it in the first place, but also just shut your mouth.

00:31:16.000 Unless it's real.

00:31:18.000 Unless it's real.

00:31:19.000 Yeah, unless Pam Bondi was like, hey, let's release the Epstein files and SDNY. Lied to her, and then she found out they lied to her. 0.98

00:31:25.000 And part of the Nothing Ever Happens gang.

00:31:27.000 I don't think that was ever planned.

00:31:30.000 You're right, it is kind of like, and I've said this before, it's a very narrow group of people that care about this, but the thing is, they care a lot.

00:31:40.000 So there may not be, it's not a very broad group of people that are going to be like, yeah, we need to know.

00:31:46.000 This is actually, this is kind of red meat for a particular constituency, but those people are very...

00:31:52.000 Very invested, and they'll be very vocal on the interwebs, and Donald Trump looks at the interwebs, and he wants to please the people.

00:32:00.000 Look what he did for TikTok.

00:32:02.000 TikTok was...

00:32:04.000 In my opinion, it was a bad idea to say, oh, we're just going to go ahead and make concessions for TikTok.

00:32:09.000 But he did it because TikTok would be vocally against him.

00:32:13.000 He wants people to like him.

00:32:14.000 He wants people to like him.

00:32:16.000 He does.

00:32:17.000 He wants to look on the internet and see people saying nice things about him.

00:32:20.000 So that's a big part of why he's doing this.

00:32:23.000 I will just say, outside of all of this, it is a fact.

00:32:28.000 It's not literally a fact, but I think any reasonable person can conclude.

00:32:34.000 S-D-N-Y with a passion. 1.00

00:32:37.000 True.

00:32:37.000 They went after him.

00:32:38.000 They went after Eric Adams.

00:32:40.000 Trump tries.

00:32:42.000 They or him drop the charges.

00:32:43.000 They resign in protest.

00:32:45.000 They file lawsuits to stop the dismissal of the charges.

00:32:50.000 The craziest thing I ever heard is that the federal government was prosecuting Eric Adams.

00:32:56.000 The DOJ cuts a deal with the mayor, which is...

00:33:00.000 Par for the course in law enforcement every single day.

00:33:03.000 A cop, a prosecutor will say, if you snitch, if you do this, if you help us with that, we'll drop the charges.

00:33:10.000 Every day.

00:33:11.000 And when the DOJ did with Eric Adams, SDNY, they quit in protest, lawsuits are filed, and a judge ruled they couldn't drop the charges they were prosecuting.

00:33:21.000 They're also trying to dismiss it without prejudice so they could bring the charges back at any time.

00:33:27.000 So...

00:33:29.000 You're saying the Trump administration wanted that?

00:33:31.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:33:32.000 Interesting.

00:33:32.000 So if Eric Adams didn't play ball, they could bring the charges back.

00:33:35.000 Or if he did play ball and they decided that the evidence was so serious that they needed to move ahead anyway, they could wait until the administration is coming to an end and they could bring them back.

00:33:44.000 It's not even a free pass.

00:33:45.000 No, it's not a free pass.

00:33:46.000 But I will say, you know, I've done briefings with DOJ officials on this issue and they do believe that it was a politically motivated prosecution against Eric Adams and they feel like the evidence is pretty thin.

00:33:57.000 I agree.

00:33:59.000 When you look at the timeline on Eric Adams, let me do this.

00:34:02.000 Let's start here before we jump into the Eric Adams stuff, because we did get a statement from Cash Patel.

00:34:07.000 This is breaking from the Post Millennial.

00:34:08.000 Cash Patel vows to swiftly pursue those who undermine the FBI after AG Pambandi reveals FBI NY withheld Epstein documents.

00:34:18.000 So Cash has posted this statement.

00:34:21.000 The FBI is entering a new era, one that will be defined by integrity, accountability, and the unwavering pursuit of justice.

00:34:27.000 There will be no cover-ups, no missing documents, and no stone left unturned.

00:34:30.000 And anyone from the prior or current Bureau who undermines this will be swiftly pursued.

00:34:35.000 If there are gaps, we will find them.

00:34:37.000 If records have been hidden, we will uncover them.

00:34:39.000 And we will bring everything we find to the DOJ to be fully assessed and transparently disseminated to the American people it should be.

00:34:45.000 The oath we take is to the Constitution, and under my leadership...

00:34:49.000 That promise will be upheld without compromise.

00:34:52.000 So for those just tuning in, the conversation we're having is the Southern District of New York and the FBI field office are being accused of intentionally covering up Epstein documents, hiding them from the AG who ordered them.

00:35:05.000 Now, we don't know exactly what's going on, but on the surface, the story is Pam Bondi was contacted by a whistleblower who said...

00:35:14.000 The FBI office in New York is sitting on thousands of documents, audio and video, that they have not turned over to you.

00:35:21.000 It's evidence.

00:35:22.000 She then wrote a letter to Kash Patel, which seems very obvious, was intended to be made public, saying, I demand that these documents be handed over to me and you assess what happened and why.

00:35:33.000 The important context that we're getting into, the Southern District of New York has gone after Trump, gone after Trump's lawyers, and recently was going after Mayor Eric Adams.

00:35:43.000 Amber just pointed out that you said you spoke with prosecutors?

00:35:46.000 Yes, DOJ officials who are trying to get the SDNY to drop the charges.

00:35:52.000 They're moving to have it dismissed without prejudice, which means that they could bring the charges again at a later date.

00:35:57.000 This is where everything gets crazy.

00:36:00.000 The DOJ comes in under a newly elected Trump administration and says, Eric Adams, we want you to work with us, and if you agree to, we'll drop the charges for now.

00:36:11.000 Eric Adams says, I will play ball.

00:36:13.000 The DOJ that instructs the Southern District of New York use attorney's office to drop the charges and they refuse.

00:36:20.000 Several of these individuals in the office begin resigning in protest.

00:36:23.000 A lawsuit is filed and a judge decides.

00:36:27.000 This is insane.

00:36:28.000 No, you can't drop the charges you're pursuing.

00:36:31.000 What?

00:36:31.000 Who's going to prosecute it?

00:36:33.000 The judge is now saying a special special prosecutor is coming in.

00:36:36.000 I think it is patently obvious.

00:36:38.000 New York.

00:36:40.000 The federal the federal offices are no longer federal.

00:36:42.000 They are rogue and operating under some kind of who knows what maybe the Democratic Party machine.

00:36:49.000 I don't know.

00:36:49.000 But there's they're obviously working in tandem with the state government who also filed false criminal charges against Donald Trump and even falsely convicted him of that.

00:36:58.000 And this is not abnormal because under the Biden administration, the Richmond field office of the FBI got in trouble because they sent out a memo to field agents telling them to infiltrate traditional Catholic churches and TLMs, traditional Latin masses, because the people who attend those masses might become, quote-unquote, domestic terrorists.

00:37:16.000 And actually, that memo did spread to other field offices as well.

00:37:19.000 And when Chris Wray found out about it, he claimed that he didn't know anything about it.

00:37:23.000 I don't know how true that is.

00:37:24.000 But still, it's not abnormal for these offices to kind of do their own thing.

00:37:29.000 from the FBI headquarters.

00:37:31.000 And the other thing on the Eric Adams case that I would mention too is that one of the complicating factors with these charges, which is why he's not capable of working with the Trump admin right now on deportations, is he's not allowed to have a security clearance.

00:37:43.000 So he cannot look at arrest records or anything related to law enforcement of illegal aliens in New York because he doesn't have the clearance to do it.

00:37:51.000 So that's the primary reason why they want the charges dropped is so he can get a security clearance back and start assisting ICE, DOJ, FBI.

00:37:58.000 They've gone rogue.

00:38:01.000 New York, from the federal offices to the state offices, appear to be operating independent from the federal government.

00:38:09.000 I mean, the state obviously does.

00:38:11.000 We get that.

00:38:12.000 But the FBI field office, if this is correct in what Pam Bondi is saying, and the stories we have about the Southern District of New York attorney's office and Eric Adams, the investigations they've launched against Trump, this has become a political body that is No longer operating under the jurisdiction of the federal government and the DOJ. They're going to have to raid the building.

00:38:34.000 They're going to have to terminate all of these individuals immediately.

00:38:38.000 And they're going to have to have trusted FBI agents actually secure the building to make sure evidence isn't being destroyed.

00:38:44.000 Yeah, I think that that's probably the next step.

00:38:47.000 And it's not a surprise that New York is this kind of corrupt field office either.

00:38:54.000 The way that they behave.

00:38:56.000 You know, towards the administration, it's not a shock in any way.

00:39:00.000 I know, Mary, you said you're in the nothing-ever-happens camp, but as much as I do kind of agree with that, this past month has been a whole lot of happenings.

00:39:10.000 A lot.

00:39:11.000 What else?

00:39:12.000 We can start from the beginning.

00:39:14.000 I mean, RFK Jr. This is a not happening.

00:39:18.000 I mean, this is a not happening.

00:39:20.000 That's crazy.

00:39:21.000 The files weren't released.

00:39:22.000 Yeah, but sure.

00:39:23.000 But the AG just said the FBI in New York has gone rogue.

00:39:26.000 I mean, talk about a happening if happenings could ever happen.

00:39:29.000 If they get raided, that's a happening.

00:39:31.000 Sure.

00:39:31.000 Okay.

00:39:32.000 I have a high threshold.

00:39:33.000 Let's start with RFK Jr. just suspended a $460 million contract to make a COVID-19 vaccine.

00:39:39.000 I mean, that's happening.

00:39:40.000 There's a bunch of little things RFK Jr. is talking about with...

00:39:44.000 Chemicals and food.

00:39:44.000 And we can roll our eyes and say, sure, I'll see what happens.

00:39:46.000 But yeah, the suspension of the, what's the Vaxart or whatever the name of the company is, this $460 million contract was just temporarily frozen.

00:39:55.000 So a little happening there.

00:39:56.000 You've got, first of all, Kash Patel just got in.

00:40:01.000 Pambani just got in.

00:40:02.000 A lot of this is in the first month.

00:40:04.000 Trump just issued an order this morning.

00:40:07.000 It wasn't Trump personally, but the Pentagon. 0.97

00:40:10.000 Terminating from the military every transgender person. 1.00

00:40:14.000 That's a happening. 0.99

00:40:15.000 There's a lot of stuff going on.

00:40:17.000 Now, I suppose if you're saying happening in the physical world, people are like, I don't know, launching rockets into space and riding those gigantic bikes, the big wheels on them down the street, and you're like, this is crazy.

00:40:27.000 Maybe we're not seeing anything, but in the administrative functions of governments, it has been so many happenings, I've lost count.

00:40:37.000 I mean, the transgender stuff with the... 1.00

00:40:41.000 Actually, you can look at just the military, and there's been a lot of stuff.

00:40:45.000 The fact that Pete Hegseth is the SecDef, that's a big deal.

00:40:51.000 When I see executive orders, I just see something that's going to change in four years if there's a new administration in office anyway.

00:41:00.000 So you think legislation is...

00:41:02.000 More compelling than executive orders, which I would agree with.

00:41:06.000 A lot of his executive orders in the first 24, 48 hours were just reversing executive orders that Biden did to reverse the executive orders that Trump did.

00:41:17.000 How many executive orders has Trump signed already?

00:41:21.000 Close to a thousand, probably.

00:41:23.000 I think it's more than Biden, Obama, and Bush did in their entirety or something like that.

00:41:33.000 I think Biden did like three or something or six, some like small number in his first day.

00:41:40.000 It shocked people.

00:41:41.000 And Trump did, what, a hundred plus?

00:41:43.000 Yeah, serious happiness.

00:41:45.000 I have to wonder what happens next.

00:41:47.000 I mean, look, if New York, let's start here.

00:41:51.000 I always love the time travel test.

00:41:53.000 Go back to 2018 and say.

00:41:55.000 In 2025, the AG will release a letter saying that the FBI offices are withholding evidence of a mass pedophile ring involving high-profile billionaires and celebrities.

00:42:03.000 People are going to be like...

00:42:04.000 What?

00:42:05.000 They say, yeah, the FBI is sitting on documents they won't release because they're trying to release them to the public, resulting in conspiracies that the FBI officers have gone rogue.

00:42:12.000 Now, I do have to mention, this other district of New York office had previously tried to prosecute Donald Trump, prosecute his lawyers.

00:42:17.000 They tried to impeach him.

00:42:18.000 The state of New York then, with overlapping jurisdiction, accused Trump of a fake crime with no underlying crime.

00:42:25.000 They upgraded a misdemeanor to a felony with no underlying crime and then tried to put him in prison as he was running for office.

00:42:30.000 I mean, the amount of things that have happened in the past year.

00:42:33.000 If you went back 10 years and said this, people would laugh and say, are you writing a movie?

00:42:38.000 And the funny thing is, whenever I do what I call the time travel test, it gets so much crazier.

00:42:44.000 I mean, think about where we're at.

00:42:45.000 Two years ago, what if I said, the AG under Trump is going to try to release the Epstein documents, but the Southern District of New York and FBI office in New York are going to secretly cover up thousands of documents.

00:42:57.000 People are going to be like...

00:42:58.000 I don't know about that.

00:43:00.000 Nothing ever happens.

00:43:01.000 I would have said that you were crazy if you told me that Trump was going to try to end birthright citizenship.

00:43:07.000 Oh yeah, he did.

00:43:08.000 I mean, it's going to go to the Supreme Court, but...

00:43:11.000 That is a happening.

00:43:12.000 I mean, there's a list, and forgive me, I'm doing the influencer thing now, but they did send a list out a week ago from the White House press office with a list of all the actions taken in the first month of the administration.

00:43:22.000 And it's a lot juicier than this Epstein binder, I will say.

00:43:27.000 I mean, there's probably 100, 150 bullet points here.

00:43:29.000 Granted, a lot of them are executive orders.

00:43:32.000 But, I mean, we have border crossings at a record low.

00:43:37.000 Tons of cutting of waste, or at least pausing.

00:43:40.000 I mean, we've paused all federal funding, especially foreign aid, which the foreign aid question was just held up by a court.

00:43:48.000 I'm sympathetic to Mary's view because I am of the opinion that legislation is what matters.

00:43:54.000 You can talk a lot about the executive orders, but you do have a point about if they're executive orders, they'll just get overturned by the next guy.

00:44:03.000 But I do think that things like Doge and cuts to the...

00:44:09.000 Various bureaucracies, I think that does matter.

00:44:11.000 I also think the American people are generally behind that kind of stuff, and I think that matters too.

00:44:16.000 If you actually make these cuts, and then you don't see negative...

00:44:21.000 Repercussions from the cuts happening to your average everyday person, I think that you'll end up getting the legislation to make the cuts permanent.

00:44:29.000 I want to issue a clarification because we got a super chat from J.R. Williams.

00:44:32.000 Tim, you leaked the Bondi letter first on YouTube, which you claimed was from an unnamed source.

00:44:36.000 Didn't you sense that something was off with a leaked AG letter?

00:44:39.000 No, 3 p.m.

00:44:40.000 was the embargo time.

00:44:41.000 And my video went live at 3 p.m.

00:44:43.000 However, other individuals published the letter before the embargo was lifted at around 233.

00:44:49.000 I know because I immediately got in contact with a couple of my sources on the ground.

00:44:53.000 And I said, looks like the letter's already been leaked.

00:44:56.000 So I did not leak at first.

00:44:57.000 And on Twitter, on X, when I posted it, it was about two minutes after it had already been released by other third parties.

00:45:05.000 So, yeah, I.

00:45:08.000 I take journalistic integrity very seriously.

00:45:11.000 That is, my sources, if they ask not to be named, I won't name them.

00:45:14.000 If they give me information on background, it's called, I won't name them.

00:45:18.000 If there are individuals, there are circumstances in which you break these.

00:45:22.000 If there's an embargo, I won't break it.

00:45:23.000 Why?

00:45:24.000 You want individuals to trust you.

00:45:26.000 And we want to get the information to the public.

00:45:29.000 If I've got people who are working in the White House and I say, you can't trust me, I'll defy anything you tell me, they'll not tell me anything and I can't tell you anything.

00:45:37.000 So you agree to some terms to try and maximize the amount of information you get knowing the individuals setting those terms are doing so for their benefit.

00:45:44.000 But it is better that we compromise on the exchange of information so that I can bring it to you as opposed to just give them the middle finger and get nothing.

00:45:52.000 That being said...

00:45:53.000 Were I or Amber, as we had been discussing earlier, if we had gone to one of these meetings, we would have been like, the moment the clock strikes, we're publishing everything.

00:46:02.000 Yeah, I would have had a Scribd account with all of the documents in it with a scheduled set time to go live at 3. 100%.

00:46:10.000 And it would have gone right on the Daily Caller website, and maybe I would have had an accompanying post with the top 10 things that are in the Epstein files for those who don't want to read all the documents, but I would absolutely make them all available.

00:46:20.000 No question.

00:46:22.000 Yeah.

00:46:23.000 Indeed.

00:46:24.000 I think my opinion still lands as this was a bad move.

00:46:30.000 It should have been the AGs, whatever it was that they decided to do.

00:46:36.000 It doesn't make anybody happy.

00:46:39.000 It doesn't satisfy anyone.

00:46:40.000 And it just makes for an unforced error.

00:46:45.000 I hear you.

00:46:46.000 I still feel like we're not going to see the unredacted files.

00:46:49.000 I don't disagree.

00:46:50.000 Like it, it, the idea that they would ever publish a list of powerful billionaires and movie stars and musicians that were involved in a trafficking ring and we're going to expose these power structures, it feels like you're, you live in a world.

00:47:05.000 It's like communist utopian level nonsense.

00:47:08.000 And I feel the same way about the JFK, RFK, and MLK documents.

00:47:12.000 Like, people who are getting all excited about that.

00:47:13.000 I'm saying, if you really think the CIA was involved in the assassination of these individuals, which, by the way, I agree with you, do we really think that they wouldn't have scrubbed the evidence of that?

00:47:23.000 Like, 30 years ago, and we're now 60-plus years on, and suddenly it's all going to come out, and they're going to indict themselves.

00:47:30.000 There are other questions that still remain unanswered about more recent events.

00:47:33.000 Like, I'm waiting for the Steven Paddock files.

00:47:36.000 Even after all these years, I'm still waiting on answering questions about that.

00:47:42.000 Biggest mass shooting in U.S. history.

00:47:45.000 And most people, if you mentioned it to them, would be like, I don't even know if I remember that.

00:47:51.000 It was completely memory-hold.

00:47:53.000 And that probably also indicts the intelligence community in a number of ways.

00:47:56.000 We've got a very big story.

00:48:18.000 If everybody watching right now shared, it would be the biggest show in the world.

00:48:21.000 Let's jump to the story from the Daily Mail.

00:48:24.000 This is crazy, my friends.

00:48:26.000 State Accident Insurance Fund CEO targeted in terrifying attack by hooded gunmen at his Oregon home.

00:48:32.000 Now, we don't know exactly what this is, but this sounds very similar to what Luigi Mangione did.

00:48:40.000 And considering how many leftists have been posting TikTok videos, wearing Luigi hats.

00:48:45.000 Demanding people engage in this kind of behavior, it was sooner or later we were going to story something like this.

00:48:51.000 Take a look.

00:48:52.000 An insurance CEO was targeted in a gun attack by a hooded gunman at his home in Oregon, with eerie similarities to Brian Thompson's murder in New York last year.

00:48:59.000 The unidentified suspect took aim at State Accident Insurance Fund CEO Chip Terhoon's $1.68 million home in Lake Oswego around 4 a.m.

00:49:08.000 Friday.

00:49:09.000 A grainy surveillance...

00:49:10.000 4 a.m.

00:49:11.000 Friday?

00:49:12.000 A grainy surveillance image released, I mean, Thursday, by Oswego Police showed this, or was this last week?

00:49:17.000 Last week.

00:49:18.000 Gunman donning all dark clothes, the possible hoodie or ski mask.

00:49:21.000 The perpetrator is believed to have fled the scene on foot, and as of Thursday, he remains on the run.

00:49:27.000 Three bullets shattered the glass of the CEO's front door and windows.

00:49:30.000 The doors have since been boarded up with wood.

00:49:32.000 The following day, Terhune informed staff at SAIF, a not-for-profit company that provides worker compensation in the state, that he initially thought rocks were being thrown at his home.

00:49:40.000 Terhune, who is worth more than $764,000, honestly, it's a lot of money, but we're not talking about a guy worth $40 million like the CEO of that other insurance company.

00:49:49.000 He sent an email to his more than 1,000 employees informing them the company received an email threat purporting to be from the person responsible.

00:49:58.000 This is crazy.

00:49:59.000 Although it does not target any specific employee, the email references knowledge of employee and relatives' names and addresses.

00:50:04.000 He further explained the sender attached a list containing some of the information sourced from internet searches, including many inaccuracies to the threatening message.

00:50:12.000 He then attached that list to the employee email and said the company will reach out to them to share what information was dug up on them.

00:50:18.000 So he clarified he isn't sure if he was targeted, but is now doing well and ready to work.

00:50:23.000 We're looking at...

00:50:24.000 Two big stories right now.

00:50:25.000 I mean, this one, obviously, we saw this breaking last week, and now there's more information on it.

00:50:30.000 Another CEO is attacked.

00:50:32.000 We have seen the left.

00:50:33.000 Recently, a story, this woman went on TikTok and called for harm, called for people to end the life of Elon Musk.

00:50:42.000 I believe a U.S. attorney responded that he'd be in touch with her.

00:50:45.000 We're hoping there's justice in that regard.

00:50:47.000 But the threats of violence from the left have been escalating.

00:50:50.000 And my friends, hear me go to any one of these liberal podcast subreddits and just search the term Civil War and see what these people are posting about.

00:51:00.000 Search the term Luigi.

00:51:02.000 Luigi on any one of these subreddits.

00:51:04.000 And what will you find?

00:51:05.000 They're going to be saying things like, Luigi was always my favorite Mario brother.

00:51:09.000 They're going to be saying things like, we need more people playing Player 2. They're making all of these references to them wanting death, murder, and destruction.

00:51:17.000 Now we have...

00:51:19.000 Two big stories.

00:51:21.000 Another attempt on the life of an insurance CEO, which may be unrelated, but who knows?

00:51:25.000 Considering the far-left sentiment bubbling up over the past several weeks, months, or year, I would not be surprised to find it was related.

00:51:31.000 And then we have claims, whether true or not, that the New York attorneys and FBI offices are rogue and not operating under the purview of the federal government.

00:51:41.000 What are we looking at right now?

00:51:45.000 It seems like things are escalating.

00:51:48.000 Look, this attack on this other CEO here, I mean, look, this is not a surprise.

00:51:58.000 There are going to be more like this.

00:52:01.000 There was the person that was shooting up a Tesla dealership.

00:52:05.000 Even though Musk isn't there, that was only symbolic.

00:52:07.000 This right here is in the exact same vein.

00:52:11.000 What?

00:52:12.000 Did we ever figure out what the motivation was behind the Cybertruck explosion?

00:52:16.000 No.

00:52:16.000 And I want to stress this too, as Phil put a pin in it real quick, I'm just going to say, another one of these stories is they just arrested a transgender individual that Fox referred to as a woman with explosives at a Tesla dealership.

00:52:28.000 They've been shooting up Tesla dealerships, smashing them, vandalizing them, and trying to blow them up.

00:52:33.000 But Phil, you were saying.

00:52:34.000 Yeah, it's just it's a situation where this stuff is, I strongly feel like this is going to continue to ask.

00:52:40.000 There are people like Kyle Kalinske and Crystal Ball and Hassan Piker and et cetera.

00:52:48.000 These people have been talking about the class war for ages.

00:52:55.000 The whole of BreadTube has been talking about class war.

00:52:57.000 And whether you're actually articulating, oh, you should engage in violence or not, when you...

00:53:04.000 Spew the rhetoric of a class war in the United States that the reason that you're poor or the reason that you're dissatisfied, because it's really the situation.

00:53:13.000 It's not about who has money and who doesn't.

00:53:15.000 There are plenty of people out there that are poor that even though they live paycheck to paycheck, they live fulfilled lives, that they love their families, they have other things in their lives that make them happy.

00:53:24.000 But when you have a...

00:53:26.000 An argument that is made constantly that the reason you are dissatisfied in your life is because of billionaires.

00:53:34.000 That's the specific reason.

00:53:36.000 And if we could just get rid of those billionaires, you would be happy in your life.

00:53:40.000 You are going to get poorly adjusted people. 0.99

00:53:43.000 You're going to get the mentally ill people that are... 1.00

00:53:47.000 That completely and totally dominate when it comes to the ground forces on the left. 0.96

00:53:51.000 Those people will go out and act.

00:53:54.000 And I'm not saying, oh, you shouldn't be able to say this or you shouldn't be able to say that.

00:53:57.000 But there is now a climate in the United States that is acceptable and to some people it is...

00:54:05.000 Not that I agree with this, but it is obvious that the problem is that there are a handful of billionaires in the world.

00:54:11.000 And the thought is, if we could just solve the billionaire problem, then we would solve whatever ails me.

00:54:18.000 I'm trans and I'm unhappy.

00:54:21.000 Whatever your disorder is will be fixed just...

00:54:25.000 By solving the billionaire problem.

00:54:26.000 But one more additional problem to that is the people that are dissatisfied, the people that are unhappy, they're not actually going to be able to find the billionaires.

00:54:34.000 They're going to find people that are worth a couple million bucks or people that just have more than they do.

00:54:39.000 So Ray Dalio had a conversation with Tucker Carlson.

00:54:42.000 He said, we're in a civil war.

00:54:44.000 On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being, yeah, we're not in a civil war, and 10 being, I can see them coming around the corner, where would you guys think we are on that scale?

00:54:53.000 Let's say we're at a five or six.

00:54:55.000 Five or six?

00:54:56.000 Oof.

00:54:57.000 That's over the middle.

00:54:57.000 What do you think?

00:54:58.000 Mary's going to say one.

00:54:59.000 Nothing ever happens.

00:55:01.000 Yeah, I'm going to go with one.

00:55:03.000 That's a safe answer.

00:55:04.000 What would be the sides then?

00:55:08.000 The civil war?

00:55:09.000 Civil war between territorial...

00:55:12.000 They're usually never territorial.

00:55:14.000 It's ideological.

00:55:15.000 Yeah, no.

00:55:16.000 So you've got the populist and then you've got the establishment forces.

00:55:20.000 So if you look at how...

00:55:22.000 The corporate press and the Democrats, the worldview they have.

00:55:25.000 I mean, who's ever on the side of the FBI field office in New York versus the federal government?

00:55:30.000 And they exist.

00:55:32.000 Whoever these people are who are trying to bomb Tesla dealerships, they're organized.

00:55:36.000 Antifa has cells all over the country. 1.00

00:55:38.000 They pretend like they don't so that stupid people think they don't exist. 1.00

00:55:41.000 But they do. 1.00

00:55:42.000 They organize online.

00:55:44.000 That's how there's a group we call the tourists.

00:55:47.000 Go to any one of these protests in—I shouldn't say any names for legal reasons, but we know their names.

00:55:54.000 We know who they are.

00:55:55.000 They are at every single protest across the country.

00:55:58.000 And you're like, how did that person know to show up in Long Beach?

00:56:02.000 I've heard this exact same thing from other people who covered the riots in 2020. Ask Richie McGinnis.

00:56:07.000 Exactly.

00:56:07.000 He will tell you.

00:56:09.000 He wrote about it in his book.

00:56:10.000 And then the Daily Caller also reported on this other story.

00:56:13.000 On Monday, the FBI's Houston office announced that they arrested someone by the name of Seth or Andrea Gregory after he allegedly plotted an attack against police similar to the 2016 Dallas ambush.

00:56:26.000 He was making terroristic threats to the Houston Police Department, Corpus Christi Police Department.

00:56:34.000 And what was really interesting about this story is that nobody seemed to blink an eye at the fact that this guy was known by both Seth and Andrea.

00:56:42.000 So I was like, we should...

00:56:43.000 Reach out to the police and ask if this was a transgender person.

00:56:45.000 That seems pretty weird.

00:56:46.000 And apparently it is.

00:56:48.000 A CCPD officer said that based on information they received from the FBI, quote, it's our understanding that Grigori is transitioning.

00:56:56.000 His driver's license indicates that he is male, but booking information from the Nooses County Jail, apologies if I mispronounce that, reportedly marks him as female.

00:57:05.000 So he was trying to engage in a mass killing similar to what happened after the Michael Brown incident in 2016 in Dallas.

00:57:14.000 And then, of course, there were some breaking news on the Ziz cult today. 0.99

00:57:17.000 I don't know if you guys saw that.

00:57:18.000 I'm not familiar with that.

00:57:19.000 You're not familiar with the Ziz?

00:57:20.000 No, tell me about it. 0.96

00:57:21.000 This is the transgender leftist cult. 1.00

00:57:23.000 Oh, great. 0.99

00:57:23.000 They killed the border guard in Vermont a couple weeks ago. 0.99

00:57:27.000 I did hear about that.

00:57:28.000 That's happening, Mary. 0.98

00:57:31.000 Far-left transgender cultists shot and killed a border guard trying to flee. 0.98

00:57:35.000 Came off of Antifa? 0.98

00:57:38.000 How did they originate?

00:57:40.000 They refer to themselves as Trantifa.

00:57:42.000 That is the actual word they use for their group.

00:57:44.000 Transgender Antifa.

00:57:46.000 It's not necessarily a splinter group.

00:57:48.000 The left is all splinter groups that have what they call the diversity of tactics and they coordinate.

00:57:54.000 So how it works is there will be 10 people that live in Seattle.

00:57:58.000 And they'll have some gutter space they rent for dirt where they organize. 0.97

00:58:04.000 When they want to set up a protest, they will put out messages to various forums and individuals.

00:58:09.000 It's a splinter network.

00:58:11.000 And then the tourists, we call them, these are people who travel around the world, not just the country, to foment and organize and provide expertise for protests.

00:58:20.000 They provide legal strategies and obstruction strategies.

00:58:23.000 So these tourists will go to these little hovels.

00:58:28.000 And provide materials, signs, rope, whatever they might need, and then through their network put out a call to action to make their protests larger.

00:58:36.000 That's why you end up seeing the exact same people in the front of every march in every different city in the country.

00:58:41.000 Some people think they're feds, that they're working for the government to sow discontent for whatever reason.

00:58:46.000 I don't know if that's true.

00:58:48.000 Who's funding it?

00:58:49.000 The government.

00:58:50.000 Like, that's the conspiracy.

00:58:52.000 Well, aside from the conspiracy, like, is this some kind of NGO funding operation?

00:58:58.000 Well, so it's not an operation.

00:58:59.000 There are operations.

00:59:01.000 So one mistake a lot of conservatives often make is they'll say, George Soros is paying protesters to be here.

00:59:06.000 Wrong.

00:59:06.000 No, they're not.

00:59:07.000 The Open Society Foundation provides grants to various nonprofits.

00:59:10.000 During Occupy Wall Street, there were a handful of nonprofits that sent their employees down to help them organize.

00:59:15.000 So how does Occupy get as big as it did?

00:59:18.000 Three or four people from various NGOs that were paid to be there put out flyers at universities, tricked them into showing up, and then took control of the organization to make big protests happen.

00:59:29.000 So when the conservatives hear that NGOs are funding this, they say the protesters are paid to be there.

00:59:36.000 Then the 22-year-old college kid who showed up bored for no reason says, I didn't get paid to be here.

00:59:41.000 I don't know anybody who did.

00:59:42.000 They're lying.

00:59:43.000 And they use that to recruit more.

00:59:45.000 They say, see, Fox News lied about you.

00:59:46.000 And they do the same thing with less violent methods, too.

00:59:49.000 So, for example, like the Satanic Temple, they had a protest at a Virginia school board meeting in Norfolk.

00:59:56.000 I went down and covered it, and I saw a few of the people.

00:59:58.000 You know, you can't miss them.

00:59:59.000 They've got shaped heads, weird tattoos, pentagrams, all this crazy nonsense.

01:00:03.000 And then I was looking at a story from a different Satanic Temple protest at a different school, literally halfway across the country.

01:00:09.000 I can't remember what state it was in.

01:00:11.000 And looking at the pictures, I went...

01:00:13.000 I know her.

01:00:13.000 She was at the Virginia protest.

01:00:15.000 Why is she in Oregon or wherever she was at that time?

01:00:18.000 And then the Free Beacon reported that all of these town halls that are popping off about Doge and Elon Musk in red districts are organized by George Soros, where they have multiple of his NGOs and nonprofits paying people and putting out targeted messaging on social media to encourage people to go to these town halls, telling them the details, the dates, the location, the phone number.

01:00:44.000 showing up and but just trying to give the impression that there is this fomented opposition from within the Republican Party against Doge.

01:00:51.000 Right.

01:00:52.000 And let's just clarify, George Soros is not personally doing any of this stuff.

01:00:56.000 Right.

01:00:57.000 He's got philanthropy wings.

01:00:58.000 I believe his son is running them.

01:00:59.000 They provide grants to various NGOs and nonprofits.

01:01:02.000 Indivisible, MoveOn are a couple of them.

01:01:05.000 And then these nonprofits decide what to do.

01:01:07.000 And so what I've personally witnessed, having covered this stuff for about a decade, is that You'll go to a protest and it's a bunch of random people milling about, no idea what's going on.

01:01:16.000 And then there will be like two or three people and you're like, I've seen you in every major set I've ever been to.

01:01:21.000 And they're like, right, I work for insert NGO. And you're like, uh-huh.

01:01:24.000 And you're paid to be here.

01:01:25.000 And they're like, well, this is part of our organizing.

01:01:27.000 So yeah, this is my job.

01:01:28.000 And then you're like, and then you went to all the universities, you put up flyers, you went on social media, you put out calls to action.

01:01:34.000 Yep.

01:01:35.000 And so all these people are here because of you.

01:01:36.000 Yes.

01:01:37.000 Okay.

01:01:37.000 So you were paid to be here by an NGO to create this protest.

01:01:40.000 And they go, right.

01:01:41.000 Then what happens is the 300 other people, you go up to them and say the same thing, were you paid to be here?

01:01:46.000 And they go, no.

01:01:47.000 Why are we here?

01:01:47.000 I heard about it on the internet.

01:01:49.000 Yeah.

01:01:50.000 Phil, I wanted to say I'm glad that you brought up the BreadTubers and these far-left streamers and influencers because they just think that this is all fun and games and it's because they've been on a playground of no consequences this entire time and the past decade, basically.

01:02:11.000 Yep.

01:02:13.000 Yep.

01:02:16.000 And by right-wing extremists, do you mean parents that have the audacity to go to the PTA meetings and look at what their kids are learning?

01:02:24.000 They also mean right-wing groups that they infiltrate in order to get people to say or do incriminating things so they can get more convictions.

01:02:32.000 But the left-wing streamers are the ones fueling this fire and making it a laughing matter.

01:02:40.000 And I think that maybe...

01:02:42.000 Maybe something that the FBI needs to focus on as they're entering a new era is far-left extremism because there is an increasing...

01:02:51.000 It's like some mixture of boredom and rage that is stirring up in a lot of people and...

01:03:01.000 It's not going to be pretty.

01:03:03.000 So the things that you hear that actually bother people when it comes to...

01:03:09.000 There's a lot of people that would say, oh, poor people.

01:03:13.000 Are really upset.

01:03:16.000 And it's not that poor people are upset, or being poor makes people unhappy.

01:03:21.000 That's not the case.

01:03:22.000 Because there are people that are in significantly poorer countries than the United States, and they live happy, fulfilled lives.

01:03:29.000 Because things like family make you happy, right?

01:03:31.000 Things like you having a fulfilled life, God, religion, your community, those kind of things are what actually makes people happy.

01:03:39.000 Material things, to a certain degree, like having...

01:03:42.000 The ability to pay your bills can add to stress and can make you unhappy.

01:03:46.000 But once you get through a certain amount of money, more money doesn't actually make you happy.

01:03:51.000 It's the reason that billionaires become billionaires is not because they want money.

01:03:54.000 It's the drive to do the thing that they're doing, right?

01:03:57.000 So it's the...

01:04:01.000 What's the phrase that I'm looking for?

01:04:03.000 Income inequality that upsets people.

01:04:05.000 When people can't pay their bills, right?

01:04:07.000 But they have the internet on their phone, but they're poor in America.

01:04:11.000 They can't pay their bills, but they see people on Instagram or on the internet that live lavish lifestyles or they hear billionaires have all this stuff.

01:04:19.000 They get upset that there is such an income inequality.

01:04:22.000 That's something that will spur people to action.

01:04:26.000 Comparison is the thief of joy.

01:04:28.000 Yes.

01:04:28.000 I don't even know if it's as cut as dry.

01:04:30.000 Because when we're seeing a lot of these school shooters or mass shooters who've had their plans foiled, seeing these half-baked manifestos that they write, I know that when I read them, it sounds like extremist political philosophy, but they don't even pick a side of the extreme to pledge allegiance to.

01:04:58.000 It's like they're just...

01:04:59.000 A lot of the statements they're making in these manifestos don't actually make coherent sense with each other.

01:05:06.000 It just sounds extreme in every last direction.

01:05:10.000 That's why I say wokeness is just cult-like adherence to liberal orthodoxy.

01:05:15.000 They don't actually have any logic behind their ideas, but for some reason they march in lockstep with each other.

01:05:21.000 So I'm not familiar with what you're talking about?

01:05:23.000 That female school shooter who, she was in Wisconsin, I believe. 0.81

01:05:28.000 Okay, I don't know this one.

01:05:29.000 Right?

01:05:29.000 Her name was Samantha something.

01:05:32.000 Oh, right, right, right.

01:05:33.000 She wrote this manifesto that seemed like it was this radical feminist manifesto, but then she was also making statements that were, like, extremely racist at the same time.

01:05:43.000 And it was this completely incoherent, scattershot philosophy.

01:05:49.000 But of course.

01:05:50.000 But also she was...

01:05:52.000 Practically, if this was written by her, practically illiterate. 0.96

01:05:55.000 But this is not surprising at all that someone who would do something so psychotic did not have a functioning brain.

01:06:02.000 There's no logic behind the actions taken by these extremists because it doesn't result in anything that lends itself towards an ideology or any kind of goal. 0.77

01:06:10.000 It's not surprising that all of the manifestos tend to be garbled mishmash nonsense.

01:06:14.000 It's not even that I'm expecting it to be logical, but internally logical.

01:06:18.000 No.

01:06:19.000 And that's the thing.

01:06:20.000 I've noticed, like, just if you track what manifestos sound like and what they're trying to communicate over time, they're just getting more and more nonsensical as time goes on.

01:06:31.000 So the concern is, when you look at liberal YouTubers, there's no logic in what they're saying.

01:06:38.000 When you look at the corporate press, it's just lies and manipulation.

01:06:41.000 I mean, let's talk about the price of eggs.

01:06:43.000 They didn't care at all.

01:06:44.000 Everyone was screaming about it.

01:06:45.000 The moment Trump walks in, they scream the price of eggs.

01:06:47.000 There's no logical pathway for what they're offering.

01:06:50.000 Take a look at, you mentioned BreadTube, these communists and these Marxists on YouTube.

01:06:54.000 They don't have a basic understanding of economics.

01:06:57.000 AOC actually stated that a tax subsidy was a cash gift, which is an inversion of what it actually is.

01:07:04.000 A tax subsidy is a discount.

01:07:06.000 AOC doesn't know anything.

01:07:07.000 At all what she's talking about.

01:07:08.000 So they rally people based on an incoherent, illogical state of being where they're angry at somebody and they accuse Trump of doing that which they do.

01:07:19.000 They are demagogues.

01:07:21.000 AOC says, I have no idea what's going on or how the world works, but I'm angry and if you're angry, be angry at him.

01:07:28.000 They rally people in this direction and it leads to violence against a Tesla dealership?

01:07:32.000 Elon doesn't work at Tesla dealerships.

01:07:35.000 Who are you mad at?

01:07:36.000 Joe Smith, who makes $40,000 a year cleaning the toilets of a car dealership?

01:07:41.000 Why are you attacking these people?

01:07:44.000 Well, the attack on the car dealership was symbolic.

01:07:48.000 And it's probably more akin to...

01:07:51.000 I'm not sure if this is actually true, but it...

01:07:56.000 Reminds me more of the graffiti that you see than an actual attack on a person.

01:08:01.000 You know what I mean?

01:08:02.000 They want to destroy something.

01:08:04.000 It's more like vandalism.

01:08:05.000 Sure, it's scary if they use firearms.

01:08:07.000 That does make it more frightening.

01:08:10.000 But that's the intent.

01:08:11.000 Frightening and vandalism not actually hurting someone.

01:08:15.000 But even still, you were talking about the bread tubers and stuff.

01:08:21.000 They intentionally aim at people that are dissatisfied.

01:08:25.000 And I've said this a million times.

01:08:27.000 Happy people don't engage in revolutionary activities.

01:08:30.000 It takes people that are upset.

01:08:32.000 They're idle and nihilistic.

01:08:34.000 They're nihilistic, absolutely.

01:08:36.000 And it was the same thing in previous eras when there were communist revolutions.

01:08:43.000 They told the average...

01:08:46.000 Person in Ukraine that it was the Kulak's fault that there was no food, right? 0.99

01:08:50.000 The Kulak, you're broke and poor because of the Kulaks. 1.00

01:08:53.000 The Kulaks were the farmers that knew how to, like they got the house and the cow that they had because they knew how to farm.

01:09:00.000 They had some land they could farm.

01:09:01.000 They were actually providing food, so they had a little bit of money.

01:09:04.000 And then the communists told them, look, the Kulaks, they have stuff.

01:09:09.000 That's your enemy.

01:09:10.000 They're the reason.

01:09:10.000 And this clearly, they weren't getting the average peasant.

01:09:15.000 Angry with the kulaks because the kulaks were living in palatial luxury. 1.00

01:09:20.000 They had a house and they had a farm and they had some cows.

01:09:23.000 They were still farmers.

01:09:25.000 But because they had something and the people that had nothing had nothing and it seemed like so much more and they were starving and the kulaks weren't, it was easy to turn the peasantry against the kulaks. 0.99

01:09:36.000 And what happened?

01:09:38.000 Millions of Ukrainians died because of it. 0.99

01:09:39.000 Same thing in China.

01:09:40.000 Let's jump to the story from the post-millennial.

01:09:43.000 Thomas Matthew Crooks may have had an accomplice, says private investigator.

01:09:47.000 We don't think he acted alone.

01:09:49.000 I think the reason this is significant is because when you look at the official narrative, they've never been able to question how this guy was able to carry these materials, his weapon, into this space in Butler, PA. How he was able to bypass all of the police.

01:10:05.000 Postmillennial rights would be assassin of Trump.

01:10:08.000 Thomas Matthew Crooks may have had an accomplice.

01:10:10.000 The New York Post has reported this comes nearly nine months since the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.

01:10:15.000 According to the outlet, sources familiar with the matter said the FBI has run interference in trying to find out why Crooks carried the shooting.

01:10:21.000 The shooter left no manifesto.

01:10:23.000 However, the outlet reported that a private investigator believes a criminal network was working with Crooks at the time of the assassination attempt.

01:10:28.000 Private investigator Doug Hagman told the outlet, we don't think he acted alone.

01:10:32.000 This took a lot of coordination in my view.

01:10:34.000 Crooks was handled by more than one individual and he was used for this assassination attempt.

01:10:39.000 And I wouldn't preclude the possibility that there were people at the rally itself helping him.

01:10:44.000 Hagman as well as his team of six other investigators have been working on the case and have interviewed dozens of people.

01:10:49.000 They've also looked into the location of a device that was geolocated to be with Crooks at the time of the shooting.

01:10:53.000 According to their work, the device is still pinging at Bethel Park High School.

01:10:57.000 Interesting.

01:10:58.000 And they go on to mention more about the shooting, but this is not surprising, though I don't know if we're going to learn anything about this.

01:11:04.000 I would not be surprised to find that there are criminal elements operating even within government that allow this to happen.

01:11:09.000 It was either, I think, if this is true, the accomplices were either within the intelligence community, meaning FBI, or part of the Iranian assassination plot against Trump.

01:11:22.000 Those, I think, are the two most likely options.

01:11:24.000 I think it has to be internal.

01:11:26.000 I think the only...

01:11:27.000 That's why I listed that one first.

01:11:30.000 We've gone over this story so many times.

01:11:32.000 I'm not surprised to see private investigator with a team of six other investigators or whatever is saying there's a weird device pinging in this high school and like he may have had an accomplice.

01:11:40.000 He had to have.

01:11:42.000 We've gone over in great deal of the official narrative over and over again.

01:11:45.000 There's no way.

01:11:46.000 They've never given...

01:11:47.000 I'm going to pause.

01:11:48.000 They've never given us an official story.

01:11:51.000 They've given us surface level circumstances that happened in Butler, PA, but they have never said...

01:11:56.000 Okay, on 9-11, hijackers at these airports got on these planes with box cutters.

01:12:03.000 They did these things.

01:12:03.000 Flight 93, let's roll.

01:12:05.000 We found the passport.

01:12:07.000 They've given us for 9-11, you know, starting from A, moving through B, ending with C. We know the position of how everything happened.

01:12:16.000 With the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, they have literally never given us an explanation as to how this guy did what he did, got where he was, and got these shots off.

01:12:24.000 And no motive.

01:12:25.000 No motive.

01:12:26.000 No plan.

01:12:28.000 They've not explained how...

01:12:31.000 There's no A to B. There's no start to finish.

01:12:35.000 There's no story.

01:12:36.000 Here's some random kid for some reason who shot the president. 0.61

01:12:39.000 He did shoot him.

01:12:40.000 And security was missing from every single point of entry.

01:12:44.000 And he flew a drone over this.

01:12:46.000 He flew a drone over the president's rally.

01:12:49.000 There's no explanation.

01:12:50.000 Why?

01:12:51.000 Because there can't be one.

01:12:52.000 There's literally no way to fabricate a scenario where Secret Service allowed a would-be assassin to fly a drone over the president's rally.

01:13:00.000 It makes no sense.

01:13:01.000 And when there were two snipers in the sniper nest and one of them had to leave for some reason but then forgot his key card and couldn't get back in?

01:13:09.000 And also the water tower was left unmanned.

01:13:12.000 And they couldn't have people on the roof that Thomas Matthew Crooks was on because it was too sloped and it was dangerous.

01:13:18.000 But they were set up on another roof that had the exact same slope.

01:13:22.000 It's so hard to hear all of the facts like that.

01:13:30.000 Think, okay, this was allowed to happen.

01:13:33.000 They had their eyes on him up until the second that he fired.

01:13:37.000 They were looking right at him and we all know that.

01:13:39.000 The whole time.

01:13:40.000 It's like to the level of incredulity of like security guards at the Metropolitan Detention Center falling asleep when they were supposed to be watching Epstein in his cell. 0.98

01:13:53.000 That's the level, like that's kind of the fool you take me for, you know? 0.63

01:13:58.000 Yeah, well I mean the previous administration absolutely looked on the average people with disdain. 0.86

01:14:05.000 They definitely looked on Trump supporters with disdain.

01:14:07.000 So it's not a surprise that they had that kind of opinion.

01:14:10.000 I am hopeful that we'll find more out with the current administration.

01:14:15.000 I imagine Donald Trump wants...

01:14:19.000 That it wants to know what happened, considering he's the guy that was actually shot.

01:14:24.000 And I do think that...

01:14:26.000 You're making a dubious face.

01:14:28.000 Do you doubt that Trump wants to know?

01:14:29.000 I was just wondering.

01:14:30.000 I mean, maybe he knows more than we do.

01:14:32.000 Probably he does.

01:14:33.000 I mean, he's the president, so I assume so.

01:14:35.000 But I do think that the American people have a right to know whatever the government finds out.

01:14:43.000 Considering the only person that was killed was the shooter, if there are other people involved, I would like to know that the government has gone and that the FBI has gone, picked them up, and I would like to see them prosecuted.

01:14:55.000 And if there are people that neglected to do their job in Pennsylvania that day or leading up to it, that those people get fired.

01:15:05.000 So that way it doesn't happen again.

01:15:06.000 And I do believe that Trump has made changes at the Secret Service.

01:15:11.000 I think.

01:15:12.000 I don't know for sure.

01:15:13.000 But I'm under the impression.

01:15:14.000 I thought that I've heard that story.

01:15:15.000 But it also seems like...

01:15:17.000 Seems logical that he would.

01:15:19.000 But yeah, I think the American people want to know, and I think the American people have the right to know.

01:15:23.000 I mean, don't assign to incompetence what can easily be explained by malice.

01:15:28.000 That's what I think.

01:15:29.000 There's no way that this was a failure of just mere incompetence, people taking bathroom breaks when they shouldn't have.

01:15:36.000 Give it backwards. 0.90

01:15:37.000 No, no, I got it perfectly in order, as I meant it.

01:15:40.000 Oh, okay.

01:15:41.000 This was malice, not incompetence.

01:15:43.000 Oh, okay.

01:15:45.000 And again, to bring up Stephen Paddock, we don't have an official story on that either.

01:15:50.000 Not that we're the type of people who just take an official story and accept it, but at least if we got an official story from the authorities, we'd have the freedom to accept or reject it, to question it and investigate it for ourselves.

01:16:04.000 It's wild to me that we're at this place where multiple instances where someone tried to take the life of the frontrunner for the U.S. presidency.

01:16:14.000 Think about where this country would be if crooks had succeeded against Donald Trump.

01:16:21.000 I mean, we'd probably be banned.

01:16:24.000 Oh, yeah.

01:16:25.000 The show wouldn't exist.

01:16:26.000 Yeah.

01:16:27.000 The first month of the Kamala Harris administration would be the exact inversion of Trump.

01:16:31.000 The border would be completely opened.

01:16:32.000 They'd be like, burn it down.

01:16:35.000 I have a strong, strong suspicion that had Kamala Harris won, and I'm not sure that Kamala Harris would have won if Donald Trump was shot.

01:16:42.000 J.D. Vance would have still won.

01:16:44.000 It's possible that he would have won, so I'm not sure.

01:16:47.000 But had Kamala Harris won, there's no doubt in my mind that shows like this would have been targeted.

01:16:54.000 The people here, like Tim personally, definitely.

01:16:56.000 I don't know if I would, but there definitely would have been people that the DOJ would have gone after Tim.

01:17:03.000 Probably would have gone after people like Rogan.

01:17:05.000 Like anyone that was sufficiently critical or that the administration assumed helped.

01:17:14.000 Or would have, you know, wasn't helping Kamala Harris.

01:17:17.000 And they were already testing the waters in the first term by using these DHS-affiliated groups to flag content on social media and send emails to Twitter and Facebook.

01:17:31.000 And then one more point on the assassination attempt.

01:17:42.000 I mean, beyond the fact that the now president was shot in the ear, there was someone who lost his life, an innocent American, Corey Compatore, and multiple other potential victims who were injured by that assassin's bullets.

01:17:55.000 Obviously, the American people deserve to know what happened.

01:17:58.000 Absolutely.

01:17:59.000 When it comes to, you know, back to the targeting of pundits or political commentary people, there were people that were in the administration, that were at the DOJ and stuff like that, that had the job of watching the people like Tim.

01:18:19.000 They had an entire intern class.

01:18:21.000 I mean, there was an intern who wrote for the Free Press after she left.

01:18:24.000 The White House, that her job as an intern for the Biden administration at DHS was to flag content that the administration didn't like, even if it was true.

01:18:32.000 Even if it was true.

01:18:34.000 And considering the fact that the administration was very comfortable with trying to...

01:18:40.000 With using the Department of Justice to go after its enemies.

01:18:43.000 I mean, that isn't in question.

01:18:46.000 Like, they were using the DOJ to go after, you know, people that had the wrong opinions about January 6th, people that were at January 6th and people that didn't go into the Capitol.

01:18:57.000 They were going after people that were just on the ground.

01:18:59.000 They were going after people, after parents that were, you know, like we talked about earlier, the parents that had an issue with the things that were being told to their children.

01:19:11.000 They would have used the DOJ to go after political pundits nationwide.

01:19:17.000 And they went after pro-lifers too, pro-life activists, for standing too close to the door of an abortion clinic.

01:19:24.000 Isn't there a person in jail now because of that?

01:19:28.000 Pardon some of them.

01:19:30.000 Okay.

01:19:30.000 I don't know if he...

01:19:31.000 Why not all?

01:19:31.000 I think he might have done all of them.

01:19:33.000 I just don't want to say for certain without double-checking my facts.

01:19:36.000 But, I mean, the other part of this, too, is I don't know if we're going to get into some of the WHCA stuff that's been happening, but...

01:19:42.000 Biden cracked down on the press pretty significantly during his time in office.

01:19:46.000 He stripped White House reporters, 450 of them almost, of their hard passes for no apparent reason.

01:19:52.000 Gave them no recourse to get the hard passes back.

01:19:55.000 They locked down the briefing room during COVID. They made journalists pay for their own COVID tests just to get access to the White House campus.

01:20:01.000 They literally had a pay-for-play scenario where you had to pay $150 a day to get a COVID test to get into the briefing room.

01:20:09.000 Let's dive into this because we have a story from The Hill.

01:20:12.000 White House Correspondents Association had the public can no longer trust pool reports under White House control.

01:20:19.000 Can I just simplify this for you guys?

01:20:22.000 The White House Correspondents Association, which was basically a news cartel, which was full of individuals who lied the entire time under the first Trump term and under Biden, are now saying we can't trust the pool reports because they don't have control, but some random people might be in there.

01:20:39.000 Are you a member?

01:20:41.000 I am a member of the White House Correspondents Association.

01:20:44.000 I am in the cartel.

01:20:45.000 I have blue membership, which is the second tier because I don't cover the White House every day.

01:20:50.000 And I've been a member since 2019. Are they evil?

01:20:54.000 They're not good people.

01:20:55.000 I can tell you that.

01:20:57.000 Some of them are good people, I assume, as Trump would say.

01:21:01.000 But, okay, so the meltdown over this is hilarious because the White House uses the pool system as a means of gatekeeping for legacy media.

01:21:10.000 I mean, really, the entire WHCA is orchestrated to protect the friends among the legacy media and corporate media.

01:21:18.000 The WHCA, for those who don't know, assigns the seats in the briefing room.

01:21:21.000 The White House doesn't do that.

01:21:23.000 They get to pick all those rows, and they are the ones who put all the corporate media in the first two rows.

01:21:28.000 So those are the people always getting called on at the briefings.

01:21:31.000 And there's a bunch of outlets that don't have seats in the briefing room at all.

01:21:35.000 When I was at The Spectator, I didn't have one.

01:21:37.000 Karine Jean-Pierre didn't call on people in the aisles.

01:21:38.000 So if you didn't have a seat assigned by the WHCA, then you were SOL when it came to getting a question during the Biden admin.

01:21:45.000 But the pool is a rotating group of journalists.

01:21:48.000 There's 30, I believe, in the print pool.

01:21:50.000 And when it's your day, you get to basically go to the events that are technically non-public or not open to the full press.

01:21:56.000 And you report on the events and you send a report to the rest of the press pool so that they can get the information when space is limited and what have you.

01:22:04.000 But the way that they organize the pool is that they're like favorite 30 outlets.

01:22:10.000 And they'll throw in two or three conservative outlets to make it look fair.

01:22:13.000 Get to go in every day.

01:22:14.000 The cameras get the perfect setup from all of the corporate legacy media outlets.

01:22:18.000 They get to go in first, set up their cameras, and often the pool will collude with each other on what questions they're going to ask before they even go in.

01:22:26.000 So my friend, Reagan Reese, who's the White House correspondent for The Daily Caller now, actually witnessed these corporate media journalists saying, if we all go in and just one of us yells a question, then we have a more likely shot of Biden answering it.

01:22:38.000 So we should actually just coordinate on what our one question is going to be among the six of us.

01:22:43.000 So it's a joke.

01:22:45.000 And now what the White House Correspondents Association is doing in response to this news that the White House is going to take over the pool rotation is they have now stopped sending pool reports at all.

01:22:55.000 I think they've actually deleted the email, which is like all at whpoolreports.com.

01:23:02.000 And this was seen as so insane by even members of the White House Correspondents Association, because now you get zero access to the White House events that you can't get into as a reporter, that they are now forwarding emails from people who are in the pool now, but they won't refer to it as a pool report anymore because they're so butthurt.

01:23:21.000 Now they're calling it White House Notes.

01:23:22.000 I have reached out to some of our contacts, and I just want to say for everybody who watches this show, it's looking really good.

01:23:36.000 I think we're going to see some massive changes to how the press is handled.

01:23:45.000 This booting of the White House Correspondent Association is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

01:23:50.000 I despise the journalism industrial complex.

01:23:55.000 I look forward to periodically hearing a question from a podcaster I've never heard of.

01:23:59.000 Every last person that was a member of the White House press pool, whether they be a member of the White House Correspondents Association or not, every last person that was in the pool should be permanently barred from the White House.

01:24:15.000 Except for Daily Caller.

01:24:16.000 Forever.

01:24:18.000 No exceptions!

01:24:21.000 I'll say fine for the purposes of this.

01:24:24.000 Jake Tapper is about to release a book called Original Sin.

01:24:28.000 Here we go.

01:24:29.000 And it is about how everyone knew that Joe Biden was a walking corpse.

01:24:36.000 Jake Tapper was instrumental in spreading the Russia collusion BS. These people are in no position.

01:24:52.000 Absolutely no position to criticize anyone.

01:24:58.000 They're not in a position to criticize Alex Jones when he was talking about the frogs turning gay. 0.52

01:25:04.000 Well, to be clear... 0.89

01:25:06.000 Alex Jones was talking about atrazine, studies that showed it caused endocrine disruption, and he was in a jokingly kind of way saying it's making them gay.

01:25:16.000 Yes, it was more true than anything these people were saying.

01:25:18.000 They have studies after the fact saying they're not sure that atrazine actually was an endocrine disruptor, but we do have, first I want to give you the context, original sin, President Biden's decline, its cover-up, and his disastrous choice to run again, Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson.

01:25:34.000 Jake Tapper, hero of CNN, exposing the corporate press for covering up Joe Biden.

01:25:41.000 My favorite, my favorite piece is going to be when he when Jake Tapper exposes Jake Tapper.

01:25:47.000 Jake.

01:25:49.000 It's very clearly a cognitive decline.

01:25:51.000 That's what I'm referring to.

01:25:53.000 It makes me uncomfortable to watch the money on stage search for questions.

01:25:58.000 And try and figure out an answer.

01:26:01.000 A cognitive decline.

01:26:02.000 You're trying to tell me that what I was suggesting was a stuttering.

01:26:05.000 I think that you were mocking his stutter.

01:26:07.000 I think you were mocking his stutter, and I think you have absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody's cognitive decline.

01:26:12.000 I would think that somebody in the Trump family would be more sensitive to people who do not I'm really excited to read the chapter in his book where he talks about how the media was covering up Joe Biden's cognitive decline.

01:26:35.000 And then he brings up CNN as one of the principal drivers in covering up Joe Biden's decline.

01:26:41.000 And man, when Tapper calls out Jake Tapper for claiming that Biden said a stutter, I'm going to be so excited.

01:26:46.000 Every last one of them deserves to be homeless and destitute for the rest of their lives.

01:26:52.000 Well, that's mean.

01:26:54.000 Look, I have no problem if they're making my cheeseburgers for me.

01:26:58.000 Just don't spit in them.

01:27:00.000 The fries, I like them a little well done, a little extra salt.

01:27:02.000 What's so annoying to me about this is, you know, a lot of people have been saying Alex Thompson was...

01:27:07.000 Good at this.

01:27:08.000 He is a good reporter.

01:27:09.000 He came out with a piece about Biden's cognitive decline, I believe, before the debate, if not shortly after, and was willing to talk about it when the Democratic Party hadn't decided if it was okay or not yet.

01:27:20.000 That's a little too much credit for Alex Thompson because...

01:27:24.000 From this clip, you see people notice this on the campaign trail in 2020. I mean, I wrote an article, I think, in September ahead of the election about Biden's schedule being less than a typical 40-hour working week.

01:27:35.000 Like, he was working an average of 30 hours on the campaign trail running for the most important job in the world.

01:27:40.000 So I don't give Alex Thompson that much credit.

01:27:42.000 But out of the mainstream media journalists, he was one of the better ones in terms of calling out Biden's cognitive decline.

01:27:48.000 And so for him to hitch his wagon to Jake Tapper, who was complicit in the cover-up, I don't know why he would damage his credibility like that unless they're getting a really fat paycheck for this.

01:27:59.000 Of course they are.

01:28:00.000 How many days...

01:28:02.000 Did the Biden administration call a lid at 1 p.m.?

01:28:06.000 I can tell you that one second.

01:28:07.000 At 1 p.m.?

01:28:07.000 How many days did they say, Biden has done too much work at 1 in the afternoon?

01:28:14.000 Yeah, they called it brunch lids.

01:28:16.000 So I wrote this article in July of 2023 called Biden's Bougie Brunch Lid.

01:28:21.000 And it was about the number of brunch lids they were calling.

01:28:25.000 And from a rough count of White House pool reports so far this year, this is from...

01:28:31.000 January to July of 2023, they had called a brunch lid...

01:28:35.000 42 times, and they called a lunch lid 39 times.

01:28:39.000 That's just in a six-month period.

01:28:40.000 And the brunch lid apparently got so much backlash after this piece came out that members of the White House communications team and members of the White House Correspondents Association instructed White House correspondents to stop using the term because of the negative optics, saying that it didn't deserve to be in the official record of the White House.

01:29:00.000 They are the ones who came up with it.

01:29:02.000 None of them deserve any of your sympathy?

01:29:05.000 None of them deserve to be in the White House anymore.

01:29:08.000 But they do deserve your disdain.

01:29:11.000 Yes, they do.

01:29:12.000 What if the foreword is Jake Tapper issuing a mea culpa?

01:29:17.000 Then I don't care.

01:29:19.000 He's making money off it.

01:29:21.000 He also needs to do a mea culpa on the Trump Tower story because he was one of the authors on that and might have won a Pulitzer Prize for it.

01:29:28.000 Was it Jake Tapper who said you're not allowed to have the DNC emails?

01:29:32.000 That was him, right?

01:29:33.000 That sounds right.

01:29:34.000 Remember when the emails got released?

01:29:36.000 It might have been, I'm not sure, but CNN, they're like, you know, it's illegal for people to have these emails, so you can't have them, but we are allowed to have them.

01:29:45.000 It's like, that's not true.

01:29:46.000 Don't buy his book.

01:29:47.000 You should definitely pirate it.

01:29:49.000 No, you should not. 0.99

01:29:51.000 Don't read that garbage. 1.00

01:29:52.000 Fair enough. 0.99

01:29:53.000 Yeah, but I'm not surprised that this is what we're getting from the corporate press.

01:29:58.000 The CNN Jake Tapper story is absolutely hilarious, but...

01:30:01.000 You know, I've worked in media for some time now, and I remember going to these events, and I just—going to various universities and news events, these people are the elite of the elite.

01:30:17.000 It is Capital City in the Hunger Games.

01:30:20.000 That's who these journalists are.

01:30:22.000 I mean, have you guys seen images of the White House Correspondent Association, what these people dress like?

01:30:27.000 They dress like Capital City in the Hunger Games.

01:30:29.000 Yeah, it's like, go watch Hunger Games in the capital city in the weird clothes.

01:30:32.000 That's what they dress like.

01:30:33.000 They are removed from the regular public.

01:30:35.000 They view themselves as a cartel.

01:30:38.000 They think they're entitled to things.

01:30:41.000 We had, who was it on the show?

01:30:42.000 Nick Sorter was saying that he was at the capital, and someone came up to him yelling and wasn't allowed to be there, and he thought it was a staffer or something.

01:30:49.000 Turns out it was a journalist.

01:30:50.000 And he was like, what?

01:30:51.000 Like, why are they yelling at me?

01:30:52.000 Because they think they're entitled.

01:30:54.000 Yeah, and Eugene Daniels is the person you're most referring to because he's the president of the White House Correspondence Association, and there's been pictures circulating of some of his outfit choices and his painted nails and things of that nature.

01:31:06.000 You can kind of see where I'm going with this.

01:31:10.000 He actually asked the Daily Caller to sign on to the Associated Press's defense letter when the Trump administration said you're no longer allowed to cover Oval Office events or fly on Air Force One.

01:31:21.000 And I was like, we would never sign your letter because you did nothing the past four years when Biden clamped down on access on independent and conservative outlets.

01:31:29.000 He hit me back and was like, I'd love to talk about how we can better support you.

01:31:33.000 And I responded.

01:31:34.000 I'm like, sure, I'll talk to you.

01:31:35.000 No reply.

01:31:36.000 Ghosted me.

01:31:37.000 So he only cared when it was to benefit his friends at the Associated Press.

01:31:42.000 And then as soon as that letter was out, I was useless to him again. 0.87

01:31:45.000 They deserve your disdain. 0.61

01:31:48.000 You should not feel bad for any of them.

01:31:51.000 They should not be allowed access.

01:31:53.000 I've said this before.

01:31:54.000 The thing that these people want more than anything else is access.

01:31:59.000 They want to be the cool insiders in D.C. They want to go to the White House Correspondents' Dinner and get dressed up in ballroom regalia.

01:32:08.000 And that's what blue check Twitter verification was.

01:32:11.000 And that's why it was overwhelmingly journalists that were verified on Twitter before Elon took it.

01:32:18.000 They intentionally, you know, Twitter was smart about this.

01:32:21.000 They said, these are people who control the flow of information through these media outlets.

01:32:26.000 Let's suck up to them and make them feel special so they will pander to us. 0.99

01:32:31.000 And that's how they would try to get favorable news coverage in the way they wanted it.

01:32:34.000 Then Elon took their blue checks away and they cried so hard.

01:32:39.000 It was really funny because there'd be, I remember the Wall Street Journal had a reporter with 200 followers and he was verified.

01:32:46.000 And there's a lot of prominent individuals in independent media.

01:32:50.000 So for me, my story was – and look, people are like – Tim's just telling another story about himself, but I don't know anybody else or their stories.

01:32:59.000 I mean like no one's told me the stories about how they got screwed over, how verified.

01:33:03.000 I had 30-something thousand followers.

01:33:05.000 I had a bunch of videos, and activists were like, why aren't these people being verified?

01:33:10.000 I wasn't working for anybody.

01:33:12.000 That was the reason.

01:33:13.000 It wasn't until I joined Vice.

01:33:15.000 That Vice called Twitter and said, verify Tim Pool, and overnight, had a verification.

01:33:19.000 These same activists were upset because they were like, here's a guy with 200 followers who's verified and nobody knows who he is.

01:33:25.000 And he was an editor at the Wall Street Journal.

01:33:27.000 Why was he verified?

01:33:28.000 Because he was a journalist, and journalists are special people.

01:33:31.000 That's right.

01:33:31.000 I had one of those.

01:33:33.000 See?

01:33:33.000 Yep.

01:33:33.000 You were a special verification.

01:33:35.000 How did you get verified?

01:33:37.000 Because I worked for a news outlet.

01:33:38.000 And they called Twitter and said, do it?

01:33:40.000 There was some submission form.

01:33:42.000 What?

01:33:43.000 Really?

01:33:43.000 Wow.

01:33:44.000 Yeah, this was in 2017 or 18, I think.

01:33:49.000 Interesting.

01:33:49.000 Early on, they had the submission forms you could submit to verify.

01:33:53.000 The original intention of it was anybody could verify their accounts to prove they were who they said they were.

01:33:58.000 And then they deactivated the ability to do it because...

01:34:01.000 Too many people were doing it, I guess.

01:34:02.000 They didn't want to pay for it.

01:34:03.000 So then they had an editorial team giving badges to people, and verification didn't mean you were who you were.

01:34:09.000 It meant special person.

01:34:11.000 I must have gotten in before that, but I do remember the submission form said something to the effect of if you are like a public figure, particularly a journalist, then you get more likely to get it.

01:34:21.000 Yeah, I think they eventually rolled something like that out.

01:34:24.000 But when I got verified, it was 2013, and there was no way to do it.

01:34:27.000 Vice employees literally called Twitter on the phone and said, Verify Tim Pool, and they went, okay.

01:34:33.000 And then they were like, you're good.

01:34:34.000 I went to my phone, opened up, like, got it.

01:34:36.000 There's my blue checkmark.

01:34:37.000 I don't know.

01:34:38.000 I don't remember exactly.

01:34:39.000 It gave you special features, too.

01:34:41.000 It did.

01:34:42.000 I don't remember when I got mine, but I know that it was because of the band.

01:34:46.000 You got it before Elon took over?

01:34:48.000 Oh, well, yeah.

01:34:49.000 I had it in, like, 2000. 12 or something.

01:34:52.000 So you had like a social media manager that did it?

01:34:54.000 No.

01:34:55.000 Not that I'm aware of.

01:34:56.000 No, the thing was for celebrities, music, bands, actors, or whatever, they were intentionally every day seeking them out to verify them because they wanted to give the platform credibility.

01:35:05.000 That's right.

01:35:05.000 They wanted to say, hey, Phil, look, you're special, right?

01:35:08.000 And then that would encourage him to tell people, come here.

01:35:11.000 I gotta tell you.

01:35:12.000 Now they can go be special and blue sky. 0.61

01:35:14.000 Well, yes, absolutely.

01:35:16.000 I got in the parties with the verification bench.

01:35:18.000 That's crazy.

01:35:19.000 I'm verified and decided I worked for Vice.

01:35:21.000 And so I went to a party, and I'm like, sorry, you can't come in.

01:35:24.000 I was like, here's my phone.

01:35:25.000 People thought it was a big deal.

01:35:26.000 Yeah, it was supposedly a big deal, and then the journalists ruined it because they thought that it made them special.

01:35:33.000 But, I mean, one other thing about the WHCA that I find so funny is, like, you're talking about mostly the people who appear on camera are dressed like they're in the Hunger Games, and they love to go to these parties.

01:35:43.000 But then there's this other smaller subset of legacy media that does not appear on camera, and these people are complete slobs.

01:35:50.000 Like, I'm not even kidding you when I say, like, they make probably more money than, I mean, not this room, sorry, but in general, they make a lot of money for people who just, like, work normal jobs.

01:36:04.000 And yet they were dressed in like the most ill-fitting, like falling apart at the scenes clothes.

01:36:09.000 They would leave their trash everywhere.

01:36:11.000 The bathroom's constantly out of order in the briefing room.

01:36:14.000 There's like rats and there's water stains and all of it was just a gross place to be.

01:36:19.000 And these people like took no pride in themselves.

01:36:21.000 And so watching them write these articles where they're like snarking on everyday Americans and looking at them with such contempt.

01:36:27.000 Like, have you looked in the mirror lately?

01:36:29.000 Like you are apparently what you hate.

01:36:32.000 I'll give you guys some numbers.

01:36:33.000 I don't know.

01:36:34.000 Did I ever give the salary numbers from Fusion before?

01:36:37.000 No.

01:36:37.000 It's been 10 years.

01:36:38.000 It's been longer than that.

01:36:40.000 They wrote me a check for $200,000.

01:36:43.000 $250,000 a year salary for two years, plus, I believe, a $3 million budget.

01:36:50.000 So when they recruited me, they were like, they slid a piece of paper across the table, and I was like, sure.

01:36:54.000 That's a lot of money.

01:36:56.000 Vice didn't pay that well.

01:36:57.000 Vice gave me $100,000.

01:37:00.000 $100,000?

01:37:01.000 What, 12 years ago?

01:37:02.000 13 years ago?

01:37:03.000 I mean, I was 26 or 27, so when they said, we'll give you $100,000 and we'll fly, like, Vice was cool.

01:37:09.000 I mean, they were like, you can go anywhere in the world you want, whenever you want, and we'll pay you $100,000 to do it.

01:37:13.000 And I was like, sign me up!

01:37:14.000 $100,000 is like $60,000 now.

01:37:17.000 Probably, yeah.

01:37:19.000 Yeah.

01:37:20.000 So it was good.

01:37:21.000 And then Fusion basically said, we're going to do the exact same thing Vice did for you, but more money.

01:37:26.000 And I was like, okay.

01:37:27.000 And then I basically just didn't spend any of it and just used it to launch a company.

01:37:32.000 But that's why, you know, Luke Rakowski was like, Tim, don't do it.

01:37:35.000 Don't join the corporate press.

01:37:37.000 Because Fusion was basically ABC News, and I was working out of the ABC News building.

01:37:40.000 Whoopi Goldberg would be in the elevator, like, every day.

01:37:42.000 I'd be, like, standing next to Whoopi Goldberg and be like, hey, Star Trek was great.

01:37:46.000 And I got to go and, like, look at The View and everything they got going on.

01:37:49.000 And there's always people outside.

01:37:51.000 Luke was like, don't do it, Tim.

01:37:53.000 They're evil.

01:37:53.000 And then I was like, bro, I'm going to go work for this company.

01:37:55.000 It's going to pay me stupid money. 0.99

01:37:56.000 And then afterwards, I'm going to... 1.00

01:37:59.000 Do my own thing for as long as I need to and as long as I want.

01:38:01.000 And with the money I had left over, I was able to just do whatever I wanted.

01:38:06.000 Fly to Sweden.

01:38:09.000 I didn't have as much...

01:38:10.000 They're paying me a salary.

01:38:11.000 Obviously, I had to pay my rent, pay my bills, and pay costs and stuff like that.

01:38:15.000 But I basically used the money to buy a computer, buy cameras, start setting things up.

01:38:21.000 Took a little while, but I had a savings to live off of.

01:38:24.000 So there you go.

01:38:24.000 There's numbers.

01:38:26.000 And you're probably going like, holy... 0.99

01:38:27.000 Crap, that's a lot of money to be paid by a news outlet. 0.99

01:38:30.000 I mean, yeah, and that was low. 1.00

01:38:32.000 Like, I didn't negotiate.

01:38:34.000 One of the other guys that worked for Fusion was getting half a million a year.

01:38:38.000 A regular journalist.

01:38:40.000 You probably wouldn't even know his name if I said it.

01:38:41.000 I'm not gonna.

01:38:43.000 Some guy never... 0.93

01:38:44.000 I mean, he wasn't a dick. 0.91

01:38:45.000 He was a nice guy.

01:38:46.000 Like, I'm not gonna rag on him.

01:38:47.000 I don't know what he's doing now, and he's never mean to me, so there's no reason for me to just, you know, throw shade at people.

01:38:52.000 But, yeah, no joke.

01:38:52.000 They hire a guy, and they're like, we'll give you $500,000 a year.

01:38:55.000 And he's like, okay.

01:38:56.000 That's the kind of stuff they do with these companies.

01:38:57.000 It's mind-blowing.

01:38:58.000 You've seen mass layoffs in almost all of these outlets by now, though.

01:39:02.000 And that era is definitively over.

01:39:05.000 Well, you know, to be honest, they weren't making money.

01:39:09.000 You know, Fusion had, I think, I was told, $300 million in investment from very powerful interests.

01:39:16.000 And they did not care how it was spent.

01:39:18.000 Yeah, most of the big outlets are being bankrolled by someone.

01:39:22.000 Very few of them are actually profitable.

01:39:25.000 Yeah.

01:39:26.000 Well, let's go to Super Chats, my friends.

01:39:48.000 And it's going to be a lot of fun.

01:39:49.000 We also have the Green Room show.

01:39:51.000 We didn't get one in today because today was absolutely crazy.

01:39:53.000 I was on the phone all day.

01:39:54.000 Just nuts.

01:39:55.000 But we do usually have the Green Room podcast up Monday through Friday, premium members only, plus our feature-length documentaries.

01:40:01.000 Let's grab some Super Chats!

01:40:03.000 The Common Neighbor says, these files reveal water is wet.

01:40:06.000 I hadn't known that.

01:40:08.000 Joe Spinell says, yeah, rogue agents, hook, line, and sinker to all the influencers.

01:40:13.000 That's the front.

01:40:14.000 The files will now be gone forever.

01:40:16.000 There's the cover-up.

01:40:17.000 I think you've all been had.

01:40:18.000 I gotta say, people are pissed on X. Mary was not wrong.

01:40:25.000 I'm pissed on X. There you go.

01:40:27.000 That's a happening.

01:40:28.000 That's a happening?

01:40:29.000 The influencers that came out all smiling and holding up their binders, I'm like, wow, man, they're getting roasted.

01:40:38.000 Because people are pointing out, it's like you were handed a prop by the White House, walked out into the press, And then you all giggled and smiled and showed off these binders.

01:40:48.000 Not everyone did, but even the people who didn't are getting ragged on.

01:40:51.000 And that's not fair.

01:40:53.000 Some of the people who were there had no idea, and I respect them.

01:40:56.000 And I'm not mad at any of them.

01:40:58.000 You know what I mean?

01:40:59.000 Like, it's...

01:41:00.000 That's what happens, right?

01:41:04.000 Raymond J. Stanley Jr. says, Tim, do you think the influencers' photo op of the Phase 1 Nothing Burger is the first L of the Trump administration?

01:41:10.000 MAGA is divided on that one.

01:41:12.000 Yeah, maybe.

01:41:13.000 I don't know what they were thinking.

01:41:14.000 Honestly.

01:41:15.000 I was talking to a couple of people on the phone, and I said, I think this was a stunt.

01:41:22.000 Because they were saying, we had no idea this was happening, and I was like, yeah, look at the photos that are coming out, man.

01:41:26.000 It's not looking good.

01:41:28.000 This is crazy.

01:41:29.000 Very weird.

01:41:30.000 Very weird.

01:41:31.000 I wonder what the intention was.

01:41:34.000 You know, I'll just say this.

01:41:36.000 White House, if they want to do stunts that make an impact and work, They should never have distanced themselves from Laura Loomer.

01:41:46.000 I'm not joking!

01:41:48.000 Have her handcuff herself to the SDNY headquarters. 1.00

01:41:52.000 That is a phenomenal point.

01:41:53.000 But think about that move when she handcuffed herself to Twitter HQ. There's nothing more to it.

01:41:58.000 It just generated a mass amount of attention on an issue.

01:42:02.000 The problem with this stunt at the White House today is that people feel like they've been tricked.

01:42:08.000 They feel like they've been had.

01:42:10.000 if pan bondy just gave laura loomer the the binder and let laura go off with it the news would have been way more favorable to them it would have been like where's the rest of it but still better than whatever this stunt was say levy i'm not crying about it guys i I mean, even though I would say it's not overall a good day for whatever they were trying to pull off, tomorrow is another day and there should be developments.

01:42:32.000 And other than that, I'm way too happy with the Trump administration to be all that bent out of shape.

01:42:37.000 I really do think, look, if tomorrow there's substance, all this will be forgotten about.

01:42:42.000 If they have substance, if they have actual things to report, and there's actual evidence that comes out, and if there's a substantial drop, or if internal affairs kicks in the doors of the FBI office in the Southern District of New York, that will be substance as well.

01:43:01.000 I'm going to need you, Phil, for this one.

01:43:04.000 James Horensen says, a Horensen, congrats to him on the baby, but it's sad to see that you didn't honor the tradition of watching the show and super chatting while your wife was in labor.

01:43:15.000 Yeah, he did.

01:43:18.000 Right?

01:43:19.000 Yes.

01:43:20.000 Yeah.

01:43:21.000 That's it.

01:43:22.000 I don't think we read it, but he did super chat.

01:43:24.000 The chat was blowing up.

01:43:26.000 Wait to read it.

01:43:26.000 It was at 8.15, and I superchatted $100.

01:43:31.000 No, I kept looking for it that day, and I couldn't find it on the chat.

01:43:33.000 I scrolled up and down numerous times.

01:43:35.000 8.15, $100 superchat from me, and the chat was blowing up, all saying, congrats, Tim, congrats, Tim.

01:43:40.000 I'm aware.

01:43:41.000 I also looked at it.

01:43:42.000 I tried to get it, and I went back and kept looking for it over and over and over again.

01:43:45.000 It wasn't shown.

01:43:45.000 I imagine it was auto-moded by YouTube.

01:43:48.000 They don't want brigading and stuff like that.

01:43:49.000 They see 300-plus.

01:43:50.000 That's what I'm assuming, because I checked it numerous, numerous times.

01:43:53.000 I could see it coming earlier, and I couldn't obviously stop.

01:43:55.000 So, hey, guys.

01:43:56.000 Just so you know, Tim did the meme.

01:43:58.000 I didn't want to do that.

01:44:00.000 But I did.

01:44:02.000 Callan said he saw it.

01:44:04.000 Well, I mean, I was chatting with people.

01:44:08.000 So I'm sorry you missed it, sir, but of course I super chatted.

01:44:12.000 And it was a crazy story.

01:44:14.000 If you want to hear the story, it's on the Green Room podcast.

01:44:18.000 Which episode of the Green Room one was that?

01:44:20.000 Let me try and pull that one up so I can direct y'all in the right direction.

01:44:24.000 Last Friday, right?

01:44:25.000 Was it?

01:44:26.000 Well, was it the Green Room?

01:44:27.000 It wasn't the Green Room on Friday.

01:44:28.000 It would have been Monday.

01:44:29.000 Was it this Monday?

01:44:31.000 I think it would have been this Monday.

01:44:33.000 The Green Room, and it was...

01:44:35.000 Yeah, because you were back on Monday.

01:44:37.000 Joey Manorino.

01:44:38.000 Yeah.

01:44:39.000 So, Green Room number 88 with Joey Manorino.

01:44:42.000 Fatherhood, children, the importance of family.

01:44:44.000 Go to rumble.com slash...

01:44:46.000 I'll just pull it up right here.

01:44:47.000 You can see it.

01:44:48.000 Rumble.com slash Timcast IRL. Watch this Green Room episode.

01:44:53.000 I mean, the green room, it's really taken off.

01:44:55.000 We're getting 40,000 plus views on these episodes.

01:44:57.000 It's massive.

01:44:57.000 And this is Rumble Premium only.

01:44:58.000 Super cool, guys.

01:45:00.000 Very, very cool.

01:45:00.000 Chuck's a great conversationalist.

01:45:02.000 Yeah, I know.

01:45:03.000 Yeah, he's great.

01:45:04.000 He's great.

01:45:04.000 He just, you know, he's a genuine guy who's interested in these guests.

01:45:08.000 He's never met before.

01:45:09.000 And then he asks the questions that bring you home.

01:45:11.000 But I came in for the first time after having a kid and they asked questions and I answered them.

01:45:16.000 So there you go.

01:45:17.000 If you want to hear the story about how it all went down.

01:45:19.000 It's like it's three in the morning and I'm sleeping and I have this thing called a sleep sanity.

01:45:22.000 I recommend it.

01:45:24.000 It is a I got an ad on Instagram.

01:45:26.000 Oh, let me tell you about Instagram, guys.

01:45:28.000 I get these ads on Instagram and I'm just smacking the buy button.

01:45:31.000 No matter what.

01:45:32.000 Their algorithm is really good.

01:45:34.000 They've got it down.

01:45:35.000 So I recently bought a pair of exoskeleton legs.

01:45:39.000 Because of Instagram.

01:45:42.000 Meanwhile, I'm getting dresses, makeup.

01:45:45.000 Carbon fiber exo-legs that increase jump strength by 40%.

01:45:50.000 I got pots and pans.

01:45:52.000 You could be a basketball player now.

01:45:54.000 We're going to experiment with these things and see how they improve our ability to skateboard.

01:45:58.000 Because it's got an AI that tracks your gait and movement and predicts where you're going.

01:46:03.000 And then motors will help you lift your legs up.

01:46:06.000 Super crazy.

01:46:06.000 But anyway, I was on Instagram and this thing called Sleep Sanity was advertised to me.

01:46:12.000 It is a headband that covers your ears.

01:46:15.000 And it's not a blindfold.

01:46:17.000 It has some kind of visor screen that when you turn on, it dims.

01:46:22.000 It's darker.

01:46:23.000 Yeah, it's super cool.

01:46:24.000 And then it has orange glowing light around it, which stimulates melatonin production.

01:46:28.000 And the headphones will play whatever sound you want or no sound at all.

01:46:32.000 So I have, before bed, I put this thing on.

01:46:34.000 All sound is gone, and then it sounds like I'm standing in the Grand Canyon at night.

01:46:39.000 It's playing like this wind blowing, and it glows yellow, and then I'm out like a rock.

01:46:45.000 My deep sleep has increased by like 20%.

01:46:47.000 My husband has sleep apnea, so I might need that.

01:46:50.000 You can't hear anything.

01:46:51.000 It's great.

01:46:52.000 Yeah, because I have...

01:46:55.000 Earplugs that I put in every night, and I think they damage your hearing.

01:46:58.000 Yeah.

01:46:58.000 And the best thing is, even though I have them, I'm fairly certain the baby hasn't cried once.

01:47:02.000 I mean, when I wake up, Allison's hair is all messed up. 0.84

01:47:06.000 Her eyes have dark rings under them.

01:47:08.000 But that's just, you know, something else.

01:47:09.000 Hey, Tim, before you get back into it, Hung Kao just posted a tweet from Donald Trump, or a truth from Donald Trump.

01:47:16.000 I am pleased to announce that Hung Kao will be our next United States Undersecretary of the Navy.

01:47:21.000 Wow!

01:47:21.000 The embodiment of the American dream.

01:47:23.000 As a refugee to our great nation, Hung worked tirelessly to make proud the country that gave his family a home.

01:47:29.000 He went to our amazing United States Naval Academy and later earned his Master's Degree in Physics.

01:47:33.000 Hung served in combat as a special operations officer for 25 years with Hung's... 0.72

01:47:41.000 I'm a big fan, and I firmly believe that he would have won if he came on TimCast IRL. I really wish he would have.

01:47:53.000 As a Virginia resident.

01:47:55.000 To be fair, I don't think we actually tried really hard to get him on the show.

01:47:58.000 I think I just tweeted about it one time, and I'm not sure we actually reached out.

01:48:01.000 We might have, but his ad was amazing.

01:48:05.000 Yeah, the knocking on the door, fleeing Vietnam when the communists are coming.

01:48:08.000 That dude's great.

01:48:09.000 Congratulations to Hunko.

01:48:11.000 All right, Garrett says, call up the 101st Air Assault, secure the roof, set up man pads to prevent helicopter rescue and secure all entrances.

01:48:19.000 Go through SDNY as a terror cell.

01:48:22.000 Bro.

01:48:23.000 Arrest them, he says. 0.85

01:48:24.000 Arrest them all.

01:48:25.000 All right.

01:48:27.000 I'm not your buddy, guys.

01:48:28.000 If evidence and truth matter, Derek Chauvin would never have gone to jail.

01:48:31.000 Public opinion is all that matters.

01:48:33.000 Phase one means more to come.

01:48:35.000 Indeed.

01:48:36.000 And Mike Cernovich was talking about this.

01:48:38.000 He said Pam Bondi is doing her best, and I genuinely believe SDNY is a rogue element.

01:48:45.000 Yeah.

01:48:46.000 Let's get some of these rumble rants. 0.90

01:48:48.000 We got Torched Medic. 0.61

01:48:50.000 If the agency tasked with enforcing the law does not want to do that and instead place politics...

01:48:54.000 Conspire against riots and go rogue.

01:48:56.000 It's time to send the military to arrest them.

01:48:58.000 No, no, no, no.

01:48:59.000 Other feds.

01:49:00.000 Military posse comitatus.

01:49:02.000 We don't want to do that.

01:49:03.000 The FBI should arrest the FBI. There's a tweet that Mike Ben sent out, by the way, with an excerpt from a 2014 CNN documentary about Whitey Bulger, and it says, Whoa.

01:49:30.000 No good.

01:49:31.000 Interesting.

01:49:32.000 Protocaster says, a company I work with is pursuing a lawsuit with the DNC because the DNC is refusing to pay their contract from one of the DNC events.

01:49:39.000 Good to know they're consistent, I guess.

01:49:41.000 Well, why would they?

01:49:41.000 They lost the election.

01:49:42.000 They ain't paying nothing.

01:49:45.000 Nicholson says, remind Mary that executive orders are like free samples to let people see what they like and then help move polling for the laws to get passed. 1.00

01:49:53.000 Plus, we need an immediate win.

01:49:56.000 Free samples.

01:49:57.000 I love that.

01:49:58.000 The Sam's Club for dinner.

01:49:58.000 I know, right?

01:50:01.000 That's a great line.

01:50:03.000 IKY says, you called it, Tim.

01:50:05.000 Media boosting leftist podcasters.

01:50:07.000 Slate article.

01:50:08.000 Who's afraid of Hassan Piker?

01:50:09.000 He's hot.

01:50:10.000 He's dangerous.

01:50:11.000 Young men actually listen to him.

01:50:12.000 Is he what Democrats are looking for?

01:50:15.000 Sure.

01:50:15.000 I guess.

01:50:16.000 Look, man.

01:50:17.000 He's not hot, though.

01:50:17.000 If they want to go ahead and lift up Hassan Piker, more power to him.

01:50:24.000 It's only a matter of time before he says something. 0.98

01:50:28.000 It's completely ridiculous. 0.97

01:50:29.000 That is completely out of step with the American people. 0.92

01:50:32.000 So, yes, DNC, get behind that man, throw a bunch of money in him, and then next time he says something crazy like the United States deserved 9-11, they'll go ahead and spread that throughout the country and further discredit your entire political party.

01:50:49.000 All right.

01:50:49.000 Pinochet says, James Comey's daughter prosecuted Maxwell.

01:50:53.000 The trial was a farce.

01:50:54.000 A scripted, orchestrated farce, she prosecuted the case but kept doors closed and assured nobody would ask questions. 0.92

01:51:01.000 You know, did you guys see that Megyn Kelly insinuated Epstein's alive?

01:51:07.000 Pardon me?

01:51:08.000 In saying what exactly?

01:51:10.000 On her podcast like last week, she said she has a lot of information pertaining to Epstein, which you're going to hear from a lot of people, maybe even Epstein himself.

01:51:18.000 That's audio recording.

01:51:20.000 Exactly.

01:51:20.000 Or video, yeah.

01:51:21.000 A lot of people think that Anthony Bourdain was the body double.

01:51:25.000 I'm not kidding.

01:51:27.000 They're like, how do we secretly get Epstein out of jail?

01:51:31.000 We need a body double, but the only one is Anthony Bourdain.

01:51:34.000 We have such a striking resemblance from the profile, you know?

01:51:38.000 No, people really did claim that at the time.

01:51:40.000 And there's that meme where it shows the political compass, and it's Epstein, Hunter Biden, Anthony Bourdain, and I don't know who the other person was, but they have a quarter of their face in each of them, and they all say that they look kind of similar.

01:51:57.000 Let's go!

01:51:58.000 What do we got?

01:51:58.000 Lucky Chariot says, there's files posted to the FBI vault website.

01:52:01.000 I haven't read through them all, but there's 22 parts.

01:52:04.000 Are people saying there's more that hasn't been released?

01:52:05.000 Yeah, so Pam Bondi put out new information, but it's not incriminating.

01:52:08.000 So there's a lot of new information.

01:52:10.000 You can look at the flight logs, but it doesn't prove anything.

01:52:14.000 So Trump and his family apparently flew on Epstein's plane.

01:52:17.000 There's two stories.

01:52:17.000 One is that he was getting a ride to Atlantic City and that Epstein wasn't even on the plane.

01:52:23.000 I don't know for sure.

01:52:24.000 The question is, did they fly to the island?

01:52:27.000 That's what I would like to know.

01:52:28.000 And I gotta be honest, guys.

01:52:29.000 I don't care if Trump is on the list.

01:52:31.000 Release it.

01:52:31.000 These liberals are like, oh yeah, well Trump's on the list.

01:52:33.000 I'm like, wow, really?

01:52:34.000 Let me see it.

01:52:35.000 Get him.

01:52:35.000 Get him then.

01:52:36.000 Yeah, let me see the list.

01:52:37.000 I'm here.

01:52:38.000 I don't think anyone's arguing against that. 1.00

01:52:41.000 Oh, he's a child rapist, but he's a Republican? 1.00

01:52:45.000 Publish the list! 1.00

01:52:46.000 You're not going to hear people say, well, he's a child rapist, but he's our child rapist. 0.99

01:52:50.000 No, they're going to say, take him to jail. 1.00

01:52:53.000 We have jail.

01:52:55.000 All right, we got Bill A. He says, I'm a simple trucker from Oklahoma.

01:52:58.000 I think, yeah, it would be nice to know the terrible people who were involved in the Epstein Island thing, but I'm more worried about our economy and the border.

01:53:06.000 That was what you were saying, Mary, and I think you're right.

01:53:09.000 It is kind of interesting that Pam Bondi made this story happen.

01:53:13.000 She didn't have to.

01:53:14.000 It's a chronically online issue that no one in the real world thinks or talks about.

01:53:19.000 I wish they would, but they don't.

01:53:22.000 This morning...

01:53:23.000 I was talking with Sean, and I was like, this transgender story is really big that Trump booted.

01:53:29.000 They issued a filing saying all transgender personnel will be separated from the military.

01:53:33.000 And I was like, is that the big story, or do we just talk about the Epstein stuff because the files haven't come out yet, and there's word that documents are coming out today?

01:53:40.000 And Sean was like, I don't think people really care all that much about this ongoing Epstein story.

01:53:46.000 The views aren't there.

01:53:47.000 People don't pay attention to it.

01:53:49.000 And I was like...

01:53:50.000 Maybe we'd be better off waiting until we get definitive information on Epstein.

01:53:53.000 And so I was sitting here waiting longer than normal for news to break.

01:53:58.000 And we opted to open the morning show with the transgender military stuff.

01:54:04.000 I found it so sinister that the phrase Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself became a meme because it started out with people actually stating that in earnest when they had reason to believe it.

01:54:17.000 And it...

01:54:18.000 It just turned into a meme that meant nothing anymore, and it became a laughingstock.

01:54:23.000 Lost its context in the process.

01:54:25.000 You think people that say it don't actually believe it?

01:54:28.000 What I mean is it was said in earnest at first, and then once it became a meme, the context was stripped from the statement and what it really meant, and the seriousness of it was lost.

01:54:39.000 I agree completely.

01:54:40.000 I think I agree about this.

01:54:41.000 I think that was almost intentional.

01:54:42.000 You notice how, like, none of the Jeffrey Epstein...

01:54:45.000 Didn't kill himself memes were censored on social media.

01:54:48.000 They were allowed to reign free.

01:54:50.000 They were censored on YouTube.

01:54:51.000 As far as I could tell.

01:54:51.000 I agree that it...

01:54:52.000 You couldn't on YouTube.

01:54:53.000 I agree that it tamped down the seriousness, but I think it became a meme because it was so obviously true.

01:55:00.000 I think I'm with you.

01:55:03.000 I think that it was kind of...

01:55:06.000 Everyone was like...

01:55:07.000 Of course.

01:55:09.000 I really feel like everybody...

01:55:11.000 Like hang himself with toilet paper or something?

01:55:12.000 Yeah, something...

01:55:13.000 I don't think it was...

01:55:14.000 Might as well. 0.97

01:55:15.000 It was ridiculous. 0.75

01:55:17.000 And, you know, the only time the camera goes off just for the amount of time necessary for the man to shuffle loose this mortal coil.

01:55:27.000 I would like to pull up this here image from Message from the Mind Field of a super chat from Tim Pool.

01:55:35.000 It says, howdy, Timcast friends.

01:55:36.000 I'm currently in the hospital waiting for my first child to be born.

01:55:38.000 Let's go.

01:55:39.000 And how dare you impugn my honor?

01:55:42.000 There it is.

01:55:44.000 Real fan.

01:55:46.000 637 thumbs up.

01:55:47.000 People were saying like, woo, you go, Tim.

01:55:49.000 And it was very difficult for me.

01:55:52.000 I mean, I had to sit on a couch and watch sci-fi for like...

01:55:55.000 12 hours?

01:55:56.000 Is that how long she was in labor? 1.00

01:55:58.000 So tough.

01:55:58.000 Must have been so hard for you, Tim.

01:56:00.000 Oh, man.

01:56:01.000 My stomach hurt from the hospital food.

01:56:04.000 It's also like the sympathy pains, you know?

01:56:07.000 The what?

01:56:08.000 Sympathy pains.

01:56:09.000 What's sympathy?

01:56:09.000 For what?

01:56:12.000 No, but a special heartfelt thank you to Allison.

01:56:16.000 She is incredible.

01:56:17.000 And she is currently taking care of the baby while I do work. 0.98

01:56:21.000 And she definitely has FOMO. Because she works here too, and she does all the administrative stuff, so she's always in and out working.

01:56:28.000 But now she's on a small maternity leave, sort of.

01:56:33.000 I mean, I still see her every day, but, you know, baby can't go anywhere just yet. 1.00

01:56:37.000 Baby's only a week old.

01:56:38.000 So there's a lot of things that have to be taken care of for baby.

01:56:41.000 And this is a true story.

01:56:44.000 The other day we were watching The Five, as I do every day, and I'm not kidding.

01:56:50.000 Baby was sleeping.

01:56:52.000 Greg Gutfeld starts talking and she looks over at the TV and opens her eyes, which, you know, for a week old, like, the eyes are closed all the time.

01:57:00.000 It's, like, too bright.

01:57:01.000 And starts just staring at Greg Gutfeld as he talks.

01:57:05.000 The camera changed.

01:57:07.000 I'm not going to say to who because I don't want to be mean to them, but baby started crying.

01:57:12.000 Was it Jessica Tarlov?

01:57:14.000 No, I don't think she was on.

01:57:15.000 I think Harold Ford Jr. was on the show that time.

01:57:17.000 It goes to commercial and baby just goes off and is crying and we're thinking, okay, maybe it's a diaper change thing.

01:57:23.000 And then as we're, you know, taking care of baby, it comes back onto the five and Greg Gutfeld leads and baby immediately turns to the TV again looking and then just stares at Greg Gutfeld and we all started laughing and Allison's mom was like, she loves Greg!

01:57:38.000 She's enamored.

01:57:40.000 It cut away from Greg after about a minute of him doing, like, it was like the one more thing or whatever it was, and then baby started crying again.

01:57:46.000 And we were like, I don't know why this baby likes Greg Gutfeld so much, but I tweeted, you know, my daughter knows who the real talent on the five is.

01:57:56.000 There you go.

01:57:57.000 But that's, I'm not exaggerating in any way.

01:58:00.000 That's literally what happened.

01:58:01.000 We thought it was hilarious, so I tweeted.

01:58:03.000 Harold Ford Jr. is, like, completely reasonable for a Democrat.

01:58:08.000 But I think Tarlov and Ford Jr. are fake people.

01:58:11.000 Like, I'm sorry, man.

01:58:13.000 Tarlov is a bit more insufferable, with all due respect, than Harold Ford Jr. He does seem reasonable.

01:58:18.000 But how can you sit next to four people who are correct and then keep being wrong?

01:58:25.000 I don't get it.

01:58:26.000 Well, maybe we could ask Ian.

01:58:29.000 Ha ha! 0.86

01:58:30.000 I got him.

01:58:31.000 Zing. 0.88

01:58:32.000 No, but like for Tarlov...

01:58:33.000 She's sitting there and it's like, yo, they fact-checked everything they're showing you.

01:58:37.000 How could you keep disagreeing with them?

01:58:39.000 It's like she's just doing it while they pay her to be.

01:58:44.000 They're like, you're the heel, you know?

01:58:46.000 Yeah.

01:58:47.000 Well, it was like the, you know, handing in combs.

01:58:50.000 Like, combs would sit there and just, he was there to get beat up.

01:58:54.000 And, you know, he did a good job of it.

01:58:58.000 Let's grab a, we got time for maybe one or two more.

01:59:03.000 Based African says Phil is incorrect.

01:59:04.000 Kamala would not have run against JD as he had not been announced yet.

01:59:08.000 Would have gone to RNC runner-up.

01:59:10.000 I believe Nikki Haley.

01:59:11.000 That's right.

01:59:12.000 Yeah, I would have gone to Nikki Haley.

01:59:13.000 Yeah, I meant to mention that, but I didn't want to.

01:59:15.000 We were already off to something else.

01:59:16.000 It's fine.

01:59:17.000 But then it makes me think, well, I don't know.

01:59:21.000 Were there interests not on the left?

01:59:25.000 Interests that wanted Nikki Haley to be the nominee?

01:59:28.000 I don't know.

01:59:29.000 Do you know one says the story earlier about Andrew Tate and Ron DeSantis was at a press conference called to shine a light on amazing work the Florida State Guard has been doing in the past few years.

01:59:39.000 Rescue, respond, serve.

01:59:40.000 Go FSG.

01:59:41.000 Do you guys hear that Tate's in town?

01:59:43.000 He's in Florida.

01:59:44.000 And I got to be honest, like I don't follow the controversy surrounding Andrew Tate.

01:59:50.000 I've seen some clips, but that that's not enough evidence for me to accuse him of anything other than the clips I saw were kind of like they were horrible.

01:59:58.000 But I don't know.

02:00:01.000 What I can tell you is all these conservatives saying don't associate, you know, stay away from Tate and all that stuff.

02:00:06.000 I'm like, if you can cede this battleground to Andrew Tate and just let him have the minds of all these young men, he won.

02:00:13.000 I don't understand what their argument is.

02:00:14.000 Well, the argument is he made his money.

02:00:17.000 By doing, you know, by being an only fan.

02:00:19.000 By pimping and trafficking. 0.52

02:00:20.000 Yeah, by pimping and trafficking.

02:00:20.000 So, like, that right there is good enough reason to be like, yo, you shouldn't associate with this.

02:00:25.000 No, because if he's got 10 million followers that are young men, and you're like, I'm gonna show him, I'm not gonna talk to him.

02:00:31.000 It's like, he's got more followers than you, bro.

02:00:33.000 You need to convince the young men following him, assuming what you're saying about Tate is true.

02:00:39.000 You need to communicate to his audience.

02:00:42.000 So you need him to sit down with you on your platform so you can challenge him on these ideas and explain why he's wrong.

02:00:48.000 If you say, I'm not going to associate with that guy, well, he's already winning.

02:00:52.000 He's extremely wealthy.

02:00:54.000 He's got 10 million plus followers just on X alone, not to mention all his other platforms.

02:00:58.000 If you just ignore him, you're not doing anything.

02:01:00.000 You're not challenging the ideas.

02:01:01.000 It's absurd to me.

02:01:03.000 So by all means, don't like the guy.

02:01:05.000 You have to enter the arena of ideas and debate for your victory.

02:01:09.000 I'll give you one.

02:01:11.000 Andrew Tate said on X, men should have as many kids with as many women as possible and you're a conqueror. 0.91

02:01:17.000 The Western world and the greatest civilization known to man was built by monogamy.

02:01:21.000 That's it.

02:01:21.000 That's a fact.

02:01:22.000 That's not an opinion.

02:01:23.000 So all these young men out there that are agreeing with him in that regard, he's not correct.

02:01:27.000 He's got some good talking points.

02:01:29.000 But again, I don't really follow much of the controversy around them.

02:01:32.000 I don't know.

02:01:33.000 My thing was like, look, when you say go and have as many kids as you possibly can with as many women as you can, that doesn't raise children. 0.98

02:01:45.000 And we need children that are raised in families that are well-adjusted.

02:01:49.000 Be a father.

02:01:51.000 That's how you win.

02:01:52.000 Indeed.

02:01:52.000 Not by just going around and inseminating women.
