Epstein Files dropped today, but it's a large, nothing burger. Today's episode of Conspiracy Theories dives deep into how the release of the Epstein Files may have been a PR stunt, and what it could mean for the ongoing investigation into Epstein.
00:00:31.000So, 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.
00:00:55.000I believe none of the influencers went to the White House knew they would be handed this packet, this binder.
00:01:01.000The 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.
00:01:10.000The information released is new, a lot of it.
00:01:13.000But it's largely being viewed as not much.
00:01:17.000Now, 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.
00:01:35.000There'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.
00:01:43.000That there was an intention to drum up some PR around the Epstein files, and there's a few theories.
00:01:48.000One, 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.
00:01:59.000According to this letter, the Epstein files should be in the hands...
00:02:03.000of the AG by tomorrow at 8 a.m., but that doesn't mean they will be released.
00:02:08.000Another 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.
00:02:15.000And 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.
00:02:26.000As we had already heard earlier in the week, a whistleblower said the FBI had been destroying Epstein evidence.
00:02:31.000Then, 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.

00:04:55.000And considering we've got some insider information on what went down to the White House, I'm going to tell you the full details, the full story.
00:05:02.000I was actually in contact with several of these individuals, as many of them are friends of the show, and it looks like a setup.
00:06:05.000And 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
00:06:36.000Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of these files.
00:06:40.000When you and I spoke yesterday, you were just as surprised as I was to learn this new information.
00:06:44.000By 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.
00:06:58.000There will be no withholdings or limitations to my or your access.
00:07:01.000The 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.
00:07:09.000As 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.
00:07:16.000You will deliver to me a comprehensive report of your findings and proposed personal personnel action within 14 days.
00:07:23.000I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter, to this important matter.
00:07:27.000I 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.
00:07:35.000Now, the information that's come out so far has since been published on Justice.gov.
00:07:40.000Attorney General Pamela Bondi releases first phase of declassified Epstein files.
00:07:44.000When the files first were released in these binders, the individuals at the White House were instructed there would be an embargo.
00:07:51.000And this means, for those that aren't familiar, you cannot release this until a certain date or time.
00:07:57.000It was supposed to be a couple hours after they received these binders, they could start releasing information.
00:08:02.000Many people began to wonder why it was.
00:08:05.000A number of these influencers had very similar statements about transparency and the greatest, most transparent administration, despite not actually releasing any of this information.
00:08:15.000Later on the day, only a few hours ago, several of these individuals began to scan and publish these files.
00:08:23.000I 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.
00:08:33.000They did eventually get released, and then we actually have the Justice Department publishing all of the information, which are largely flight logs.
00:08:41.000An evidence list, a contact book, and a masseuse list, which is presumably victims.
00:08:46.000Let me give you the quick breakdown, as it was told to be by a couple different individuals who attended.
00:08:53.000Actually, I wonder if I have the photo I can pull up somewhere.
00:08:57.000I do, in fact, have one of the photos.
00:09:00.000This 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.
00:09:13.000Some are very happy, some are a little bit perturbed.
00:09:27.000This was, at some point, several individuals were invited to do a meet and greet and talk with the press team in the White House.
00:09:35.000None 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.
00:09:43.000When they were, they were told that there was an embargo until something was going to happen related to the release.
00:09:49.000So don't show off anything that's in it.
00:09:51.000Now, the question then becomes, how do these photos emerge?
00:09:55.000Well, I can only assume, based on the fact the White House has numerous exits.
00:10:00.000And 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.
00:10:13.000At the same time, this letter was released and ended up dropping earlier than the embargo was supposed to be.
00:10:32.000She could simply send him a text message.
00:10:34.000That 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.
00:10:47.000Angered 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.
00:10:57.000There's a lot of conspiracies running around as to why this is.
00:11:32.000Having these influencers with millions of followers plus combined being photographed by the press in every direction, that can't be an accident.
00:11:59.000And more importantly, they may scramble and begin to start destroying files.
00:12:03.000A 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.
00:12:13.000Simply 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.
00:12:32.000I 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...
00:12:41.000In 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.
00:12:50.000Find a scapegoat patsy of some random lawyer or analyst and say he did it.
00:13:01.000Well, I was talking to Chad Prather earlier, who was one of the influencers who was there.
00:13:05.000I actually ran into him on my way to Newsmax in the elevator.
00:13:08.000And he was confirming what you said, that he did not think that he was going to the White House to get the Epstein files.
00:13:14.000They were there to meet with Vice President J.D. Vance to talk about messaging for the administration, the conservative movement.
00:13:21.000And basically this got dropped on their laps.
00:13:24.000They told them that they weren't supposed to open these binders until after they left the White House.
00:13:29.000One 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.
00:13:39.000And 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.
00:13:54.000And the sticks are where they do interviews with the press.
00:13:56.000And that's where they took the photo op.
00:14:00.000They could have walked them out any other exit.
00:14:03.000They 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.
00:14:14.000But they took them over to the Oval, where the sticks are, and then had this huge photo op.
00:14:25.000I... 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...
00:14:42.000I 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?
00:15:10.000But 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.
00:15:19.000I 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.
00:15:32.000And 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.
00:15:40.000That is, Pam Bondi overpromised on TV, probably unscripted, Jesse Waters, when she said, I've got it on my desk.
00:16:14.000It's not the same office necessarily that went after Trump, but it is New York.
00:16:18.000In this same jurisdiction, essentially, at the state level, that went after Donald Trump with false charges.
00:16:24.000I 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.
00:16:42.000So I do believe it's entirely possible that Pam Bondi was like, She got a call.
00:17:02.000I think it's fair to say that the SDNY is probably doing what she's accusing them of.
00:17:08.000But 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.
00:17:20.000So 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?
00:17:55.000But 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.
00:18:04.000The question is, tomorrow, 12 hours from now, are they going to get them?
00:18:09.000I 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.
00:18:21.000If 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.
00:18:38.000They're trying to protect people that have been somehow broken the law or whatever.
00:18:46.000But I think that it's a bad look to...
00:18:51.000I've got a clarification and a correction.
00:18:55.000The Southern District of New York has conducted multiple investigations involving Trump.
00:19:00.000The Michael Cohen investigation, the inaugural committee investigation, attempts to influence SDNY.
00:19:06.000So the Cohen thing is particularly interesting.
00:19:08.000In August 2018, SDNY prosecutors charged Michael Cohen, Trump's former attorney with campaign finance violations related to hush money payments to Stormy Daniels.
00:19:16.000So that is the hush money case that they've brought against Trump.
00:19:20.000I believe that was at the state level, though.
00:19:24.000My apologies, but, like, so much has happened, it kind of just muddles together, you know?
00:19:30.000The 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.
00:19:40.000I 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.
00:19:55.000And 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.
00:20:25.000First of all, that's not even a funny meme in 2025. It's been like 15 years since anyone thought that was funny.
00:20:31.000But 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.
00:21:26.000So 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.
00:21:40.000I 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.
00:21:50.000There'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.
00:21:59.000And 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.
00:22:19.000If 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.
00:22:27.000Like, I would not be posting repeated pictures.
00:22:30.000I would not be posting the press statement from the White House about how this is the most transparent administration in history.
00:23:35.000No, but I talked to a handful of people, and that actually is genuinely why I believe they were blindsided by this.
00:23:42.000A handful of these people are good friends of ours, friends of the show.
00:23:45.000And I asked them, and I was like, hey, what went down today?
00:23:47.000And they were like, we had no idea this was happening.
00:23:50.000And 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.
00:25:58.000So, 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...
00:26:07.000They made binders and made this letter to Cash.
00:26:10.000She could have literally called Cash and say, yo, WTF, like, they're not giving me the documents.
00:27:24.000That 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.
00:27:32.000And I maintain that privacy for a lot of these individuals.
00:27:35.000And I have heard the same story, even independent of what I was told.
00:27:40.000Amber had the same story from Chad being like, we didn't even know this was happening.
00:27:43.000Well, in that case, I'm going to believe it was bullet points that were given to them after the fact.
00:27:52.000Right, and not everybody tweeted the same thing, but a lot of them did.
00:27:57.000Yeah, 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.
00:28:07.000Now, they are a narrow group of people, people that are gun owners and 2A advocates and stuff.
00:28:30.000And 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.
00:28:40.000So if they don't release Phase 2 or Phase 3 and those are not bombshells, they're in trouble.
00:28:45.000There are two potential outcomes, two principal outcomes from this that I think are most likely.
00:28:50.000One is tomorrow morning, someone cash or otherwise they confirm the documents.
00:28:56.000In full have been transferred to the AG's office and they're working on redactions or whatever, wherever that leads.
00:29:01.000The 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.
00:29:15.000If tomorrow morning they do not confirm receipt of these documents, they may as well say, we have no power.
00:29:24.000And the FBI office is its own agency, independent of our government.
00:29:28.000Look, 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...
00:30:33.000Yeah, 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.
00:31:30.000You'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.
00:31:40.000So there may not be, it's not a very broad group of people that are going to be like, yeah, we need to know.
00:31:46.000This is actually, this is kind of red meat for a particular constituency, but those people are very...
00:31:52.000Very invested, and they'll be very vocal on the interwebs, and Donald Trump looks at the interwebs, and he wants to please the people.
00:33:11.000And 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.
00:33:21.000They're also trying to dismiss it without prejudice so they could bring the charges back at any time.
00:33:32.000So if Eric Adams didn't play ball, they could bring the charges back.
00:33:35.000Or 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.
00:33:46.000But 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.
00:34:37.000If records have been hidden, we will uncover them.
00:34:39.000And we will bring everything we find to the DOJ to be fully assessed and transparently disseminated to the American people it should be.
00:34:45.000The oath we take is to the Constitution, and under my leadership...
00:34:49.000That promise will be upheld without compromise.
00:34:52.000So 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.
00:35:05.000Now, 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...
00:35:14.000The FBI office in New York is sitting on thousands of documents, audio and video, that they have not turned over to you.
00:35:22.000She 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.
00:35:33.000The 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.
00:35:43.000Amber just pointed out that you said you spoke with prosecutors?
00:35:46.000Yes, DOJ officials who are trying to get the SDNY to drop the charges.
00:35:52.000They're moving to have it dismissed without prejudice, which means that they could bring the charges again at a later date.
00:36:00.000The 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.
00:36:49.000But 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.
00:36:58.000And 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.
00:37:16.000And actually, that memo did spread to other field offices as well.
00:37:19.000And when Chris Wray found out about it, he claimed that he didn't know anything about it.
00:37:31.000And 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.
00:37:43.000So 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.
00:37:51.000So 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.
00:38:12.000But 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.
00:38:34.000They're going to have to terminate all of these individuals immediately.
00:38:38.000And they're going to have to have trusted FBI agents actually secure the building to make sure evidence isn't being destroyed.
00:38:44.000Yeah, I think that that's probably the next step.
00:38:47.000And it's not a surprise that New York is this kind of corrupt field office either.
00:38:56.000You know, towards the administration, it's not a shock in any way.
00:39:00.000I 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.
00:39:44.000And we can roll our eyes and say, sure, I'll see what happens.
00:39:46.000But 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.
00:40:17.000Now, 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.
00:40:27.000Maybe we're not seeing anything, but in the administrative functions of governments, it has been so many happenings, I've lost count.
00:40:37.000I mean, the transgender stuff with the...
00:40:41.000Actually, you can look at just the military, and there's been a lot of stuff.
00:40:45.000The fact that Pete Hegseth is the SecDef, that's a big deal.
00:40:51.000When 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.
00:41:02.000More compelling than executive orders, which I would agree with.
00:41:06.000A 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.
00:41:17.000How many executive orders has Trump signed already?
00:41:55.000In 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.
00:42:05.000They 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.
00:42:12.000Now, I do have to mention, this other district of New York office had previously tried to prosecute Donald Trump, prosecute his lawyers.
00:42:45.000Two 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.
00:43:12.000I 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.
00:43:22.000And it's a lot juicier than this Epstein binder, I will say.
00:43:29.000Granted, a lot of them are executive orders.
00:43:32.000But, I mean, we have border crossings at a record low.
00:43:37.000Tons of cutting of waste, or at least pausing.
00:43:40.000I mean, we've paused all federal funding, especially foreign aid, which the foreign aid question was just held up by a court.
00:43:48.000I'm sympathetic to Mary's view because I am of the opinion that legislation is what matters.
00:43:54.000You 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.
00:44:03.000But I do think that things like Doge and cuts to the...
00:44:09.000Various bureaucracies, I think that does matter.
00:44:11.000I also think the American people are generally behind that kind of stuff, and I think that matters too.
00:44:16.000If you actually make these cuts, and then you don't see negative...
00:44:21.000Repercussions from the cuts happening to your average everyday person, I think that you'll end up getting the legislation to make the cuts permanent.
00:44:29.000I want to issue a clarification because we got a super chat from J.R. Williams.
00:44:32.000Tim, you leaked the Bondi letter first on YouTube, which you claimed was from an unnamed source.
00:44:36.000Didn't you sense that something was off with a leaked AG letter?
00:45:26.000And we want to get the information to the public.
00:45:29.000If 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.
00:45:37.000So 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.
00:45:44.000But 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.
00:45:53.000Were 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.
00:46:02.000Yeah, 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%.
00:46:10.000And 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.
00:46:50.000Like 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.
00:47:05.000It's like communist utopian level nonsense.
00:47:08.000And I feel the same way about the JFK, RFK, and MLK documents.
00:47:12.000Like, people who are getting all excited about that.
00:47:13.000I'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?
00:47:23.000Like, 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.
00:47:30.000There are other questions that still remain unanswered about more recent events.
00:47:33.000Like, I'm waiting for the Steven Paddock files.
00:47:36.000Even after all these years, I'm still waiting on answering questions about that.
00:47:42.000Biggest mass shooting in U.S. history.
00:47:45.000And most people, if you mentioned it to them, would be like, I don't even know if I remember that.
00:48:52.000An 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.
00:48:59.000The unidentified suspect took aim at State Accident Insurance Fund CEO Chip Terhoon's $1.68 million home in Lake Oswego around 4 a.m.
00:49:18.000Gunman donning all dark clothes, the possible hoodie or ski mask.
00:49:21.000The perpetrator is believed to have fled the scene on foot, and as of Thursday, he remains on the run.
00:49:27.000Three bullets shattered the glass of the CEO's front door and windows.
00:49:30.000The doors have since been boarded up with wood.
00:49:32.000The 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.
00:49:40.000Terhune, 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.
00:49:49.000He 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.
00:49:59.000Although it does not target any specific employee, the email references knowledge of employee and relatives' names and addresses.
00:50:04.000He further explained the sender attached a list containing some of the information sourced from internet searches, including many inaccuracies to the threatening message.
00:50:12.000He 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.
00:50:18.000So he clarified he isn't sure if he was targeted, but is now doing well and ready to work.
00:50:33.000Recently, a story, this woman went on TikTok and called for harm, called for people to end the life of Elon Musk.
00:50:42.000I believe a U.S. attorney responded that he'd be in touch with her.
00:50:45.000We're hoping there's justice in that regard.
00:50:47.000But the threats of violence from the left have been escalating.
00:50:50.000And 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.
00:51:05.000They're going to be saying things like, Luigi was always my favorite Mario brother.
00:51:09.000They'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.
00:51:21.000Another attempt on the life of an insurance CEO, which may be unrelated, but who knows?
00:51:25.000Considering the far-left sentiment bubbling up over the past several weeks, months, or year, I would not be surprised to find it was related.
00:51:31.000And 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.
00:52:16.000And 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.
00:52:28.000They've been shooting up Tesla dealerships, smashing them, vandalizing them, and trying to blow them up.
00:52:34.000Yeah, it's just it's a situation where this stuff is, I strongly feel like this is going to continue to ask.
00:52:40.000There are people like Kyle Kalinske and Crystal Ball and Hassan Piker and et cetera.
00:52:48.000These people have been talking about the class war for ages.
00:52:55.000The whole of BreadTube has been talking about class war.
00:52:57.000And whether you're actually articulating, oh, you should engage in violence or not, when you...
00:53:04.000Spew 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.
00:53:13.000It's not about who has money and who doesn't.
00:53:15.000There 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.
00:54:26.000But 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.
00:54:34.000They're going to find people that are worth a couple million bucks or people that just have more than they do.
00:54:39.000So Ray Dalio had a conversation with Tucker Carlson.
00:54:44.000On 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?
00:56:10.000And then the Daily Caller also reported on this other story.
00:56:13.000On 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.
00:56:26.000He was making terroristic threats to the Houston Police Department, Corpus Christi Police Department.
00:56:34.000And 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.
00:56:48.000A CCPD officer said that based on information they received from the FBI, quote, it's our understanding that Grigori is transitioning.
00:56:56.000His 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.
00:57:05.000So he was trying to engage in a mass killing similar to what happened after the Michael Brown incident in 2016 in Dallas.
00:57:14.000And then, of course, there were some breaking news on the Ziz cult today.
00:58:11.000And 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.
00:58:20.000They provide legal strategies and obstruction strategies.
00:58:23.000So these tourists will go to these little hovels.
00:58:28.000And provide materials, signs, rope, whatever they might need, and then through their network put out a call to action to make their protests larger.
00:58:36.000That's why you end up seeing the exact same people in the front of every march in every different city in the country.
00:58:41.000Some people think they're feds, that they're working for the government to sow discontent for whatever reason.
00:59:07.000The Open Society Foundation provides grants to various nonprofits.
00:59:10.000During Occupy Wall Street, there were a handful of nonprofits that sent their employees down to help them organize.
00:59:15.000So how does Occupy get as big as it did?
00:59:18.000Three 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.
00:59:29.000So when the conservatives hear that NGOs are funding this, they say the protesters are paid to be there.
00:59:36.000Then the 22-year-old college kid who showed up bored for no reason says, I didn't get paid to be here.
01:00:15.000Why is she in Oregon or wherever she was at that time?
01:00:18.000And 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.
01:00:44.000showing up and but just trying to give the impression that there is this fomented opposition from within the Republican Party against Doge.
01:00:59.000They provide grants to various NGOs and nonprofits.
01:01:02.000Indivisible, MoveOn are a couple of them.
01:01:05.000And then these nonprofits decide what to do.
01:01:07.000And 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.
01:01:16.000And 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.
01:01:21.000And they're like, right, I work for insert NGO. And you're like, uh-huh.
01:01:50.000Phil, 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.
01:02:16.000And 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?
01:02:24.000They 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.
01:02:32.000But the left-wing streamers are the ones fueling this fire and making it a laughing matter.
01:04:05.000When people can't pay their bills, right?
01:04:07.000But they have the internet on their phone, but they're poor in America.
01:04:11.000They 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.
01:04:19.000They get upset that there is such an income inequality.
01:04:22.000That's something that will spur people to action.
01:04:28.000I don't even know if it's as cut as dry.
01:04:30.000Because 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.
01:05:33.000She 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.
01:05:43.000And it was this completely incoherent, scattershot philosophy.
01:05:52.000Practically, if this was written by her, practically illiterate.
01:05:55.000But this is not surprising at all that someone who would do something so psychotic did not have a functioning brain.
01:06:02.000There'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.
01:06:10.000It's not surprising that all of the manifestos tend to be garbled mishmash nonsense.
01:06:14.000It's not even that I'm expecting it to be logical, but internally logical.
01:06:20.000I'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.
01:06:31.000So the concern is, when you look at liberal YouTubers, there's no logic in what they're saying.
01:06:38.000When you look at the corporate press, it's just lies and manipulation.
01:06:41.000I mean, let's talk about the price of eggs.
01:07:08.000So 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.
01:09:25.000But 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.
01:09:49.000I 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.
01:10:05.000Postmillennial rights would be assassin of Trump.
01:10:08.000Thomas Matthew Crooks may have had an accomplice.
01:10:10.000The New York Post has reported this comes nearly nine months since the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.
01:10:15.000According to the outlet, sources familiar with the matter said the FBI has run interference in trying to find out why Crooks carried the shooting.
01:10:23.000However, the outlet reported that a private investigator believes a criminal network was working with Crooks at the time of the assassination attempt.
01:10:28.000Private investigator Doug Hagman told the outlet, we don't think he acted alone.
01:10:32.000This took a lot of coordination in my view.
01:10:34.000Crooks was handled by more than one individual and he was used for this assassination attempt.
01:10:39.000And I wouldn't preclude the possibility that there were people at the rally itself helping him.
01:10:44.000Hagman as well as his team of six other investigators have been working on the case and have interviewed dozens of people.
01:10:49.000They've also looked into the location of a device that was geolocated to be with Crooks at the time of the shooting.
01:10:53.000According to their work, the device is still pinging at Bethel Park High School.
01:10:58.000And 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.
01:11:04.000I would not be surprised to find that there are criminal elements operating even within government that allow this to happen.
01:11:09.000It 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.
01:11:22.000Those, I think, are the two most likely options.
01:11:30.000We've gone over this story so many times.
01:11:32.000I'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.
01:12:07.000They'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.
01:12:16.000With 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.
01:12:52.000There'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.
01:13:01.000And 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?
01:13:09.000And also the water tower was left unmanned.
01:13:12.000And they couldn't have people on the roof that Thomas Matthew Crooks was on because it was too sloped and it was dangerous.
01:13:18.000But they were set up on another roof that had the exact same slope.
01:13:22.000It's so hard to hear all of the facts like that.
01:13:30.000Think, okay, this was allowed to happen.
01:13:33.000They had their eyes on him up until the second that he fired.
01:13:37.000They were looking right at him and we all know that.
01:13:40.000It'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.
01:13:53.000That's the level, like that's kind of the fool you take me for, you know?
01:13:58.000Yeah, well I mean the previous administration absolutely looked on the average people with disdain.
01:14:05.000They definitely looked on Trump supporters with disdain.
01:14:07.000So it's not a surprise that they had that kind of opinion.
01:14:10.000I am hopeful that we'll find more out with the current administration.
01:14:33.000I mean, he's the president, so I assume so.
01:14:35.000But I do think that the American people have a right to know whatever the government finds out.
01:14:43.000Considering 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.
01:14:55.000And if there are people that neglected to do their job in Pennsylvania that day or leading up to it, that those people get fired.
01:15:45.000And again, to bring up Stephen Paddock, we don't have an official story on that either.
01:15:50.000Not 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.
01:16:04.000It'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.
01:16:14.000Think about where this country would be if crooks had succeeded against Donald Trump.
01:16:44.000It's possible that he would have won, so I'm not sure.
01:16:47.000But had Kamala Harris won, there's no doubt in my mind that shows like this would have been targeted.
01:16:54.000The people here, like Tim personally, definitely.
01:16:56.000I don't know if I would, but there definitely would have been people that the DOJ would have gone after Tim.
01:17:03.000Probably would have gone after people like Rogan.
01:17:05.000Like anyone that was sufficiently critical or that the administration assumed helped.
01:17:14.000Or would have, you know, wasn't helping Kamala Harris.
01:17:17.000And 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.
01:17:31.000And then one more point on the assassination attempt.
01:17:42.000I 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.
01:17:55.000Obviously, the American people deserve to know what happened.
01:17:59.000When 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.
01:18:21.000I mean, there was an intern who wrote for the Free Press after she left.
01:18:24.000The 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.
01:18:46.000Like, 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.
01:18:57.000They were going after people that were just on the ground.
01:18:59.000They 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.
01:19:11.000They would have used the DOJ to go after political pundits nationwide.
01:19:17.000And they went after pro-lifers too, pro-life activists, for standing too close to the door of an abortion clinic.
01:19:24.000Isn't there a person in jail now because of that?
01:19:31.000I think he might have done all of them.
01:19:33.000I just don't want to say for certain without double-checking my facts.
01:19:36.000But, 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...
01:19:42.000Biden cracked down on the press pretty significantly during his time in office.
01:19:46.000He stripped White House reporters, 450 of them almost, of their hard passes for no apparent reason.
01:19:52.000Gave them no recourse to get the hard passes back.
01:19:55.000They 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.
01:20:01.000They 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.
01:20:09.000Let's dive into this because we have a story from The Hill.
01:20:12.000White House Correspondents Association had the public can no longer trust pool reports under White House control.
01:20:19.000Can I just simplify this for you guys?
01:20:22.000The 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.
01:21:23.000They get to pick all those rows, and they are the ones who put all the corporate media in the first two rows.
01:21:28.000So those are the people always getting called on at the briefings.
01:21:31.000And there's a bunch of outlets that don't have seats in the briefing room at all.
01:21:35.000When I was at The Spectator, I didn't have one.
01:21:37.000Karine Jean-Pierre didn't call on people in the aisles.
01:21:38.000So 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.
01:21:45.000But the pool is a rotating group of journalists.
01:21:48.000There's 30, I believe, in the print pool.
01:21:50.000And 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.
01:21:56.000And 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.
01:22:04.000But the way that they organize the pool is that they're like favorite 30 outlets.
01:22:10.000And they'll throw in two or three conservative outlets to make it look fair.
01:22:14.000The cameras get the perfect setup from all of the corporate legacy media outlets.
01:22:18.000They 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.
01:22:26.000So 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.
01:22:38.000So we should actually just coordinate on what our one question is going to be among the six of us.
01:22:45.000And 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.
01:22:55.000I think they've actually deleted the email, which is like all at whpoolreports.com.
01:23:02.000And 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.
01:23:21.000Now they're calling it White House Notes.
01:23:22.000I 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.
01:23:36.000I think we're going to see some massive changes to how the press is handled.
01:23:45.000This booting of the White House Correspondent Association is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
01:23:50.000I despise the journalism industrial complex.
01:23:55.000I look forward to periodically hearing a question from a podcaster I've never heard of.
01:23:59.000Every 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.
01:25:06.000Alex 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.
01:25:16.000Yes, it was more true than anything these people were saying.
01:25:18.000They 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.
01:25:34.000Jake Tapper, hero of CNN, exposing the corporate press for covering up Joe Biden.
01:25:41.000My favorite, my favorite piece is going to be when he when Jake Tapper exposes Jake Tapper.
01:26:02.000You're trying to tell me that what I was suggesting was a stuttering.
01:26:05.000I think that you were mocking his stutter.
01:26:07.000I think you were mocking his stutter, and I think you have absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody's cognitive decline.
01:26:12.000I 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.
01:26:35.000And then he brings up CNN as one of the principal drivers in covering up Joe Biden's decline.
01:26:41.000And man, when Tapper calls out Jake Tapper for claiming that Biden said a stutter, I'm going to be so excited.
01:26:46.000Every last one of them deserves to be homeless and destitute for the rest of their lives.
01:27:09.000He 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.
01:27:20.000That's a little too much credit for Alex Thompson because...
01:27:24.000From 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.
01:27:35.000Like, he was working an average of 30 hours on the campaign trail running for the most important job in the world.
01:27:40.000So I don't give Alex Thompson that much credit.
01:27:42.000But out of the mainstream media journalists, he was one of the better ones in terms of calling out Biden's cognitive decline.
01:27:48.000And 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.
01:28:40.000And 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.
01:29:00.000They are the ones who came up with it.
01:29:02.000None of them deserve any of your sympathy?
01:29:05.000None of them deserve to be in the White House anymore.
01:29:21.000He 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.
01:29:28.000Was it Jake Tapper who said you're not allowed to have the DNC emails?
01:29:34.000Remember when the emails got released?
01:29:36.000It 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.
01:29:53.000Yeah, but I'm not surprised that this is what we're getting from the corporate press.
01:29:58.000The CNN Jake Tapper story is absolutely hilarious, but...
01:30:01.000You 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.
01:30:17.000It is Capital City in the Hunger Games.
01:30:42.000Nick 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.
01:30:54.000Yeah, 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.
01:31:06.000You can kind of see where I'm going with this.
01:31:10.000He 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.
01:31:21.000And 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.
01:31:29.000He hit me back and was like, I'd love to talk about how we can better support you.
01:31:54.000The thing that these people want more than anything else is access.
01:31:59.000They 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.
01:32:08.000And that's what blue check Twitter verification was.
01:32:11.000And that's why it was overwhelmingly journalists that were verified on Twitter before Elon took it.
01:32:18.000They intentionally, you know, Twitter was smart about this.
01:32:21.000They said, these are people who control the flow of information through these media outlets.
01:32:26.000Let's suck up to them and make them feel special so they will pander to us.
01:32:31.000And that's how they would try to get favorable news coverage in the way they wanted it.
01:32:34.000Then Elon took their blue checks away and they cried so hard.
01:32:39.000It was really funny because there'd be, I remember the Wall Street Journal had a reporter with 200 followers and he was verified.
01:32:46.000And there's a lot of prominent individuals in independent media.
01:32:50.000So 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.
01:32:59.000I mean like no one's told me the stories about how they got screwed over, how verified.
01:33:03.000I had 30-something thousand followers.
01:33:05.000I had a bunch of videos, and activists were like, why aren't these people being verified?
01:34:11.000I 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.
01:34:21.000Yeah, I think they eventually rolled something like that out.
01:34:24.000But when I got verified, it was 2013, and there was no way to do it.
01:34:27.000Vice employees literally called Twitter on the phone and said, Verify Tim Pool, and they went, okay.
01:34:56.000No, 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.
01:35:26.000Yeah, it was supposedly a big deal, and then the journalists ruined it because they thought that it made them special.
01:35:33.000But, 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.
01:35:43.000But then there's this other smaller subset of legacy media that does not appear on camera, and these people are complete slobs.
01:35:50.000Like, 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.
01:36:04.000And yet they were dressed in like the most ill-fitting, like falling apart at the scenes clothes.
01:36:09.000They would leave their trash everywhere.
01:36:11.000The bathroom's constantly out of order in the briefing room.
01:36:14.000There's like rats and there's water stains and all of it was just a gross place to be.
01:36:19.000And these people like took no pride in themselves.
01:36:21.000And so watching them write these articles where they're like snarking on everyday Americans and looking at them with such contempt.
01:36:27.000Like, have you looked in the mirror lately?
01:36:29.000Like you are apparently what you hate.
01:40:29.000The influencers that came out all smiling and holding up their binders, I'm like, wow, man, they're getting roasted.
01:40:38.000Because 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.
01:40:48.000Not everyone did, but even the people who didn't are getting ragged on.
01:41:04.000Raymond 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?
01:42:10.000if 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.
01:42:32.000And other than that, I'm way too happy with the Trump administration to be all that bent out of shape.
01:42:37.000I really do think, look, if tomorrow there's substance, all this will be forgotten about.
01:42:42.000If 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.
01:43:01.000I'm going to need you, Phil, for this one.
01:43:04.000James 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.
01:48:11.000All right, Garrett says, call up the 101st Air Assault, secure the roof, set up man pads to prevent helicopter rescue and secure all entrances.
01:49:03.000The 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.
01:49:32.000Protocaster 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.
01:49:39.000Good to know they're consistent, I guess.
01:49:45.000Nicholson 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.
01:50:29.000That is completely out of step with the American people.
01:50:32.000So, 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.
01:51:10.000On 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.
01:51:27.000They're like, how do we secretly get Epstein out of jail?
01:51:31.000We need a body double, but the only one is Anthony Bourdain.
01:51:34.000We have such a striking resemblance from the profile, you know?
01:51:38.000No, people really did claim that at the time.
01:51:40.000And 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.
01:52:55.000All right, we got Bill A. He says, I'm a simple trucker from Oklahoma.
01:52:58.000I 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.
01:53:06.000That was what you were saying, Mary, and I think you're right.
01:53:09.000It is kind of interesting that Pam Bondi made this story happen.
01:53:23.000I was talking with Sean, and I was like, this transgender story is really big that Trump booted.
01:53:29.000They issued a filing saying all transgender personnel will be separated from the military.
01:53:33.000And 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?
01:53:40.000And Sean was like, I don't think people really care all that much about this ongoing Epstein story.
01:53:50.000Maybe we'd be better off waiting until we get definitive information on Epstein.
01:53:53.000And so I was sitting here waiting longer than normal for news to break.
01:53:58.000And we opted to open the morning show with the transgender military stuff.
01:54:04.000I 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.
01:54:25.000You think people that say it don't actually believe it?
01:54:28.000What 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.
01:56:52.000Greg 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.
01:57:15.000I think Harold Ford Jr. was on the show that time.
01:57:17.000It goes to commercial and baby just goes off and is crying and we're thinking, okay, maybe it's a diaper change thing.
01:57:23.000And 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!
01:57:40.000It 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.
01:57:46.000And 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.
01:59:29.000Do 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.
01:59:44.000And I got to be honest, like I don't follow the controversy surrounding Andrew Tate.
01:59:50.000I'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.
02:01:33.000My 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.
02:01:45.000And we need children that are raised in families that are well-adjusted.
02:01:52.000Not by just going around and inseminating women.
