Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Judge Dismisses Illegal Immigrants Charges For ATTACKING National Guard w-Tony Shaffer | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:12.000 you so we all remember that story where a wave of criminal

00:00:44.000 aliens attacked the National Guard to storm their way into the United States

00:00:50.000 The judge has now dismissed the riot charges against all 140 illegal immigrants, saying there's no real probable cause to charge these people with a crime.

00:00:59.000 And if you want to bring a charge, you're going to have to prove that to a grand jury.

00:01:03.000 So it just seems like there's no border, I suppose.

00:01:06.000 These people are literally on camera attacking National Guard and they said there's no probable cause to justify this.

00:01:12.000 I suppose the argument is, well, how do we know?

00:01:14.000 The individual himself!

00:01:16.000 I suppose the issue is, if they are illegal immigrants, why are we pausing, questioning whether or not they committed a secondary crime when they're already illegally entering the country and should be deported? 0.81

00:01:27.000 But that's what's happening, so we'll talk about all that.

00:01:29.000 Plus, we've got news for the Trump trial.

00:01:31.000 This one's fascinating.

00:01:33.000 They're basically saying that this is a trial not about the hush money payment itself as falsifying records, but of election interference.

00:01:42.000 Because Donald Trump was conspiring, in fact, to suppress information that was negative about him.

00:01:48.000 And that's not illegal.

00:01:49.000 But they're arguing it was interfering with an election.

00:01:53.000 Let me just break that down for you.

00:01:55.000 What they're saying is Donald Trump doing PR Interfered in the election.

00:02:00.000 That's the argument they're making.

00:02:01.000 That's why Trump is being charged.

00:02:02.000 And the Gaza anti-Israel protests are expanding into more universities.

00:02:08.000 Funding is being pulled from some big top donors.

00:02:11.000 And it's going to be real interesting how these universities react.

00:02:15.000 Columbia, it seems, is siding with the protesters.

00:02:18.000 They're going to lose a lot of money because of it, but I don't think they want to lose their customer base.

00:02:22.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:02:22.000 But before we get started, head over to castbrew.com and buy coffee.

00:05:10.000 Hey, I'm Hannah Clare Brimlow.

00:05:11.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.

00:05:13.000 I'm happy to be back.

00:05:14.000 Phil Labonte's here tonight.

00:05:15.000 Hello, everybody.

00:05:16.000 My name is Phil Labonte.

00:05:17.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains.

00:05:19.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:05:21.000 Serge.

00:05:22.000 Yo, I am here.

00:05:24.000 Hopefully everything works tonight.

00:05:25.000 Let's go to it.

00:05:25.000 Hopefully!

00:05:26.000 All right, well, here's the first story.

00:05:28.000 We've got this one from the Post Millennial.

00:05:30.000 Judge dismisses riot charges against 140 illegal immigrants accused of rushing the border in El Paso.

00:05:37.000 Quote, I don't believe there is probable cause for these individuals to continue to be detained for the offense of riot participation.

00:05:44.000 Which basically means they're being released as well.

00:05:48.000 On Monday, a judge in El Paso, Texas dismissed the cases of 140 illegal immigrants charged in connection with a border riot that took place when the illegal immigrants stormed border patrol agents at the U.S.-Mexico border.

00:05:59.000 All 140 still face federal charges stemming from their illegal entry into the country.

00:06:05.000 Though most illegal immigrants are given a court date some years into the future and released into the domestic U.S., the Biden administration often offers free flights for these individuals to cities and states across the country.

00:06:16.000 Now I suppose the argument is, how do you know this particular individual rioted?

00:06:23.000 And that's the argument that happened in DC in 2017 when the far left rioted during Trump's inauguration.

00:06:31.000 They asked the police, how do you know that individual right there was part of that group?

00:06:35.000 And they were like, well, we arrested him in the group.

00:06:36.000 And they're like, but you don't know what they did.

00:06:38.000 It must be just a humble man wearing a black hoodie and a mask and black jeans.

00:06:44.000 And it was a coincidence they were there.

00:06:46.000 So the police tried getting them on, and the DA tried going after them for conspiracy.

00:06:50.000 And the courts ultimately ruled, you can't charge an individual for the actions of an amorphous mass.

00:06:57.000 And that's basically what's happening here.

00:06:59.000 Because the illegal immigrants invaded the country by force, attacking National Guard, a single illegal immigrant can't be charged for it. 1.00

00:07:07.000 So they're allowed into the country, they will be released, and their charges will be dropped.

00:07:11.000 Tim, can I ask you a question?

00:07:12.000 Yes, of course.

00:07:13.000 Were any of them cannibals by chance? 1.00

00:07:15.000 Just out of curiosity.

00:07:16.000 We don't know, but I would assume.

00:07:18.000 Not that you could charge him for that, but it's just a curiosity.

00:07:20.000 Just saying.

00:07:21.000 We don't even charge them for entering the country illegally, let alone rioting at the border.

00:07:25.000 We wouldn't charge them for anything because this is how the Biden administration handles illegal immigration into this country, despite the fact that it costs the average American worker tens of thousands of dollars.

00:07:34.000 I mean, it's such a slap in the face of the average American to see this come up.

00:07:38.000 You're right.

00:07:38.000 Not just the workers, but you look at the crime that they end up causing.

00:07:41.000 You look at lives that are taken unnecessarily because people who were told not to enter here and disrespected our country's laws every step along the way are allowed to stay.

00:07:49.000 So was there any video at all?

00:07:52.000 Because it looked like they videoed everything.

00:07:54.000 Shouldn't that be admissible?

00:07:55.000 It's like, hey, these guys really were, you know, wearing masks.

00:07:59.000 I don't know.

00:08:00.000 Were they wearing masks during that?

00:08:02.000 Many of the people who attacked the guards were wearing masks.

00:08:04.000 Wow.

00:08:05.000 And so the argument then becomes, well, how do you know that was him?

00:08:07.000 Yeah.

00:08:08.000 And so, of course, non-citizens have due process rights under the Constitution, same as everybody else.

00:08:13.000 So you can't charge them with attacking the National Guard and illegally invading the country.

00:08:16.000 illegal and illegally invading the country.

00:08:19.000 I love this quasi-warfare reality that we're currently in where Ukraine is not the US versus 0.51

00:08:27.000 Russia because the Americans that are fighting there are fighting there privately of their

00:08:32.000 own volition and US troops aren't actually fighting, they're just providing intel.

00:08:37.000 So we are not at war.

00:08:38.000 And then you have citizens of a foreign nation attacking our National Guard at the border, 0.98

00:08:45.000 as individuals.

00:08:46.000 So there is no- There's no invasion.

00:08:49.000 Don't worry.

00:08:50.000 Yeah, just millions of people pouring through the border.

00:08:52.000 It hasn't been formally declared.

00:08:53.000 January 6th was an insurrection, right?

00:08:55.000 But this is not an invasion.

00:08:56.000 No, they're just coming to shop at Walmart.

00:08:58.000 That's all.

00:08:58.000 They're just coming.

00:08:59.000 They're Walmart shoppers who are masked because they don't want to get any sort of infections.

00:09:03.000 Well, you know, the reality is they are.

00:09:06.000 One of the interviews during the migrant caravan a few years ago, the LA Times asked one of the migrants in the caravan why they were coming and he says, I miss Buffalo Wild Wings.

00:09:17.000 And I was just like, there's Buffalo Wild Wings in Mexico City.

00:09:20.000 Sounds like he's seeking asylum to me.

00:09:21.000 That guy really needs our help.

00:09:23.000 They got B-dubs in Mexico City. 1.00

00:09:24.000 I went there.

00:09:25.000 It was great.

00:09:26.000 It's cruel and unusual to not allow them to go to Buffalo Wild Wings.

00:09:29.000 You're right.

00:09:29.000 Or Mission Barbecue.

00:09:31.000 It's remarkable.

00:09:31.000 And that Mission Barbecue is also good.

00:09:33.000 We can sit around and make all these jokes for like five minutes.

00:09:37.000 The world's burning down!

00:09:40.000 And we all know that there's not going to be anything done with the border with the current administration.

00:09:47.000 And if they get re-elected, if the administration gets re-elected, nothing will be done.

00:09:51.000 And the American people generally agree Right?

00:09:54.000 Like, Americans broadly are like, if you have people coming to the country illegally, we should stop them. 0.99

00:10:03.000 We should say, you can't come in.

00:10:05.000 There are like, what, 300,000 in one month?

00:10:09.000 We ended up breaking our previous record of 200,000 in a month?

00:10:12.000 10 million in the past four years or something like that?

00:10:13.000 It's complete insanity.

00:10:15.000 I don't know for sure.

00:10:15.000 They say something like 7 million, but you know it's not that.

00:10:18.000 Even still, it's outrageous!

00:10:20.000 7 million is the compromise number, and it's not good.

00:10:23.000 Yeah, the idea that that is not an outrageous number, that the government just sits there and says, well, I mean, it's what happened, and it's not our fault, even though they got into office and repealed all of the, or, you know, got rid of all the executive orders that the previous administration had just because Because it was the previous administration and not Donald Trump was enough reason.

00:10:46.000 It is absurd, ridiculous. 0.97

00:10:48.000 The entire government is clown world. 1.00

00:10:50.000 It's so exhausting. 0.94

00:10:53.000 I want to hit that because I actually talked to a DHS official today on the drive out here to wherever we're at.

00:10:58.000 Just saying.

00:10:59.000 So during this conversation with him. 0.85

00:11:03.000 He said that there are members of DHS who recognize what we're saying to be absolutely correct and factual, that this is a clown show.

00:11:11.000 But they're being held back by those appointees who were appointed by this administration.

00:11:16.000 So, you know, as a former guy who was, you know, a sworn civilian and military officer, there are people like me who want to do our jobs.

00:11:23.000 The problem is The politicians, the people who are appointed above them.

00:11:27.000 And that's why you see this.

00:11:28.000 And until something is done to remove them from their ability to influence the permanent bureaucracy, you're going to see this.

00:11:35.000 And by the way, Tim, you know, I mean, we all know it's like New York is fed up with this.

00:11:39.000 I talk to folks up there all the time.

00:11:40.000 They can't ride the subway.

00:11:42.000 So I think it's a matter of time before their own side, your former side, I guess, really gets upset and says, enough's enough.

00:11:48.000 But it's going to take something to say, you know, we got to do something about it.

00:11:52.000 I do think regular people are starting to snap.

00:11:55.000 Scott Pressler mentioned this the other night.

00:11:57.000 Unregistered voters are leaning towards Trump.

00:12:00.000 So the Democrats are putting out these messages being like, stop registering voters.

00:12:05.000 They're more likely to be Trump supporters.

00:12:07.000 Yeah.

00:12:07.000 Well, I mean, look, one of the issues that Trump campaigned on most successfully last time he ran, or I should say the first time he ran when he actually won, was the border issue.

00:12:15.000 Right?

00:12:15.000 And they've done everything within their power to make it worse.

00:12:18.000 And since then, I mean since 2020, they're saying we've let in the population of New York to the country.

00:12:25.000 Oh my gosh.

00:12:25.000 And that's not even an accurate number.

00:12:26.000 We all know that.

00:12:27.000 It's closer to 10 million.

00:12:28.000 It's way more.

00:12:29.000 So I live in a very real county in North Carolina.

00:12:31.000 The whole county is 14,500 people.

00:12:33.000 That's the whole county.

00:12:35.000 And it's very poor.

00:12:36.000 And I'm on the Social Services Committee.

00:12:38.000 I'm running for County Commissioner, just saying, if anybody wants to vote for me in the county.

00:12:41.000 But in the county, the minorities there feel that they are being deprived of resources they should otherwise get because they see, like us, all these resources going to the illegal aliens.

00:12:52.000 I mean, when you're talking about people who could barely pay for their heating bill, that they have to have special programs, and they see people coming here and getting, you know, 15, you know, $2,000 a month for their family.

00:13:03.000 Right.

00:13:04.000 They're fed up.

00:13:05.000 And this is the left's board.

00:13:06.000 I mean, they're Democrats.

00:13:09.000 Right.

00:13:09.000 An open border is an elitist position because the people who are most adversely affected are typically people who live on or below the poverty line.

00:13:15.000 And they devalue the value of labor.

00:13:18.000 That's why I can't believe that the left is not upset.

00:13:20.000 The unions aren't upset because the more illegal aliens you come in, the more you devalue a unit of labor in any market. 0.99

00:13:27.000 Yeah.

00:13:28.000 And it's like, where is anybody who actually understands what this does in a way of damage to the... But how much of it is just headline chasing, right?

00:13:35.000 They want to be the party that's like, we were the most welcoming.

00:13:38.000 Exactly.

00:13:38.000 Well, you're right.

00:13:40.000 It's completely backwards.

00:13:42.000 These people come into our country without any identification to work for wages that Americans won't accept. 1.00

00:13:46.000 And the unions go, they have a right to work.

00:13:49.000 It's like, they won't let an American citizen... They try to push for these laws that make it impossible for an American citizen to be able to Work without a union in certain sectors, and then they're willing to allow people to just flood the country and take whatever job they want without any kind of registration, totally off the grid, no social security numbers.

00:14:05.000 It's not any job.

00:14:06.000 Nancy Pelosi said if they don't come, they won't pick our crops, remember?

00:14:10.000 Was it Kelly Osborne?

00:14:13.000 Yeah, who's going to be cleaning your toilets, Donald Trump?

00:14:15.000 That's right.

00:14:16.000 Yeah, there's a lot of dignity in that statement.

00:14:19.000 So much respect.

00:14:20.000 But no, it shows you how they see them.

00:14:21.000 It shows you how they see them.

00:14:22.000 They're pawns, ultimately.

00:14:24.000 And they're here.

00:14:25.000 I remember having this conversation when I was in high school, someone saying, well, they're just jobs the American workers wouldn't do.

00:14:29.000 That's not true.

00:14:30.000 That's true.

00:14:32.000 That wage.

00:14:33.000 Yeah.

00:14:33.000 Right.

00:14:34.000 And also at times, there are times that it inhibits, uh, technological innovation, right?

00:14:38.000 Like if you think about agriculture workers, job labor that you could, you know, sell out cheaply to people who are not here illegally, who you don't have to hold to, you know, safe working standards.

00:14:47.000 Technically you could potentially have other innovations come in and solve this, but instead you're perpetuating these terrible systems.

00:14:53.000 We talked about that new Atlas robot from Boston Dynamics.

00:14:58.000 Have you seen this video?

00:14:59.000 No, I haven't seen it.

00:15:00.000 It's this like creepy humanoid thing that like spreads its legs and like stands up and then its body spins around and it walks towards you or whatever.

00:15:08.000 And the joke I made was watching these like androids they're building. 1.00

00:15:12.000 You know, I can't wait to fight one of these robots while my friends are scavenging for food in an abandoned gas station and I'm trying to buy them time and then we all escape into the sewers and flee.

00:15:21.000 But thinking about it now, what's really going to happen is, if one of these robots costs $50,000, then these companies are going to be thinking, a single Android for $50,000 is going to operate for 5 years.

00:15:34.000 So that's $10,000 a year.

00:15:35.000 That's way cheaper than any human.

00:15:37.000 And what's actually going to happen is there's going to be Neo-Luddites.

00:15:41.000 I think it's absolutely true.

00:15:50.000 You know, when we examine this through an economic framework, it's easy and I would say accurate and worthwhile to point out the fact that these people are driving the cost of labor down.

00:16:00.000 But it's a lot more insidious.

00:16:02.000 This narrative that the left has pushed on immigration for the last several decades, that these are just people who want to come here and do jobs that we won't do, like again, not only for reasons that we've pointed out is that not true, but it's just not the case anymore.

00:16:13.000 More than half of the people who pour over the border are not from Mexico.

00:16:16.000 You have no idea where these people are from, you have no idea what they want to do.

00:16:19.000 Yeah, there's a lot of human trafficking going on.

00:16:21.000 This is not even about somebody adjusting market equilibrium with respect to wages for labor.

00:16:27.000 This is about trafficking.

00:16:28.000 This is about human trafficking.

00:16:29.000 This is about people from nations that are hostile to our interests at a time where there is intense turmoil on the global stage just entering into our country. 0.93

00:16:37.000 We have no idea what they're doing.

00:16:39.000 But Seamus, that's how we'll solve our birth rate problem.

00:16:41.000 That's what makes me crazy.

00:16:43.000 It's so open, like population replacement.

00:16:47.000 And again, all of the Americans who are trying to keep the system together pay for this.

00:16:52.000 I mean, it's terrible. 0.96

00:16:53.000 It's disgusting. 0.92

00:16:54.000 It's disgusting and it's evil. 0.99

00:16:55.000 What was the name of that robot again, Tim? 0.93

00:16:56.000 Atlas.

00:16:57.000 So do you think, would you sign, would you all join me in doing a petition to require that they bring Atlas robots in to replace the entire cast of The View?

00:17:06.000 I think that would be, and that would last for 10 years, it's a cost cutting, and they can't be any less.

00:17:11.000 It'd be great actually.

00:17:12.000 I think it'd be funny.

00:17:13.000 It would just be GPT pretending to talk to itself.

00:17:15.000 Yeah.

00:17:16.000 That's what you got now.

00:17:16.000 No, I think that makes it too strong.

00:17:18.000 But you know, it would be comparably the same show because GPT's training ends in 2021, so they would be equally as ill-informed.

00:17:26.000 Oh, man.

00:17:28.000 That's true.

00:17:29.000 That's true.

00:17:30.000 That's a good one.

00:17:31.000 Let's jump to this next story.

00:17:32.000 This is speaking about what's going on with the border.

00:17:36.000 We got this tweet from Thomas Massey.

00:17:38.000 You may have seen the video.

00:17:40.000 Rep Thomas Massey posted a video of the U.S.

00:17:43.000 House of Representatives under the direction of Speaker Mike Johnson.

00:17:46.000 Democrats celebrating his total capitulation with no victory for securing our border.

00:17:51.000 And here is a video of all of these people in Congress waving the Ukrainian flag.

00:17:57.000 Yes, they're all very, very... That's breaking the House rules, by the way.

00:18:01.000 You can't fly a foreign flag. 0.99

00:18:04.000 Really?

00:18:04.000 No.

00:18:05.000 Well, here's what's fascinating.

00:18:06.000 Thomas Massey tweets, instead of fining Democrats for waving flags, the House Sergeant at Arms just called and said, I will be fined $500 if I don't delete this video post.

00:18:17.000 Mike Johnson really wants to memory hole this betrayal of America.

00:18:20.000 Now, Mike Johnson tweeted, he doesn't agree with the fine, and he's going to put in a good word.

00:18:25.000 But it is shocking to see our representatives flying the flag of a foreign nation as they vote to send our money to a foreign country, unjustified, while our border is in crisis, while our country is dealing with inflation issues, while our country is dealing with healthcare issues, while our country is dealing with gas prices, jobs, all of these problems that need to be solved.

00:18:51.000 Absolutely.

00:18:52.000 And it goes so much deeper than that.

00:18:53.000 You can say, honestly, calmly, not even bombastically, as a blanket statement, quality of life has not approached what it was in 2019.

00:19:04.000 And everyone knows it.

00:19:06.000 Everyone knows it.

00:19:06.000 Just five years ago, life was far easier for people.

00:19:09.000 You're getting to the point where even very wealthy people are having trouble maintaining the standard of living they used to have.

00:19:16.000 They talk about goods getting cheaper.

00:19:17.000 Country clubs are cutting corners.

00:19:19.000 What about poor people?

00:19:20.000 What about people who are already struggling to afford food?

00:19:23.000 This country is in a horrible position right now, and we're just giving what else we have left away.

00:19:28.000 Yeah, and it's going to get worse.

00:19:30.000 One of the senators during debate today pointed out that the Social Security Fund is going to run out in 10 years.

00:19:37.000 Our Highway Transportation Trust is going to run out.

00:19:39.000 in 2028.

00:19:40.000 Again, I don't even know that the federal government should have these things, but if you're the left and you say yes, federal government should pay for all of these things, how can you also say we're going to send all of our money away as opposed to deal with these things that are specifically designed theoretically to address domestic problems?

00:19:55.000 It gets even more frightening, right?

00:19:56.000 Because one thing people will look at when we talk about the national debt is the debt-to-GDP ratio, which is fair. 0.58

00:20:01.000 It's an interesting way of looking at things.

00:20:03.000 But at some point, when your debt gets bad enough, you just have to look at whether you're capable of taking care of the interest payments each month.

00:20:09.000 And the interest payments, if rates rise to historic averages, like 6%, I mean, it's going to get to the point where a massive percent of our budget is literally just going to be going to paying off the interest on the national debt.

00:20:19.000 I mean, we are in serious financial trouble here.

00:20:21.000 Well, don't frighten me.

00:20:23.000 I start Social Security payments this November.

00:20:25.000 I never start them, sir.

00:20:27.000 We never have them.

00:20:29.000 That's the thing.

00:20:29.000 I'm going to get mine.

00:20:31.000 It's just a myth that I heard about one time.

00:20:33.000 Congratulations.

00:20:35.000 I hope it's great.

00:20:36.000 Me too.

00:20:37.000 Me too.

00:20:37.000 I'll let you know.

00:20:38.000 I'll let you know.

00:20:39.000 No, but point to your point.

00:20:40.000 It's like, we are spending $8 billion a day Eight billion dollars a day.

00:20:46.000 And we're like only appropriating about four billion.

00:20:50.000 So that's six billion we're printing every day.

00:20:52.000 Six billion.

00:20:53.000 And to that point, it's like, Tim, I've watched your stuff over the years.

00:20:58.000 I'm fundamentally not against military spending because I think most military spending is useless.

00:21:03.000 Much of what I've seen spent You know, when I was in Afghanistan, I would walk into this tactical operations center, and literally wall to wall are these $10,000 a pop plasma TV screens.

00:21:16.000 Like, really?

00:21:17.000 Is this going to help us kill the Taliban better by having all these really cool screens?

00:21:21.000 And that's what's going on now.

00:21:23.000 That's what's going on with Ukraine.

00:21:24.000 So all this money we've seen, $300 billion.

00:21:26.000 Think about that.

00:21:27.000 $300 billion.

00:21:29.000 What could we have done to create high-speed trains, improved airports, Student debt, all these things which I think are clearly American issues are being ignored, and yet we get the Ukraine flag on the floor of the House.

00:21:42.000 It's like we're being invaded, right?

00:21:45.000 Their flags are everywhere!

00:21:46.000 From every direction.

00:21:47.000 I would rather give that $300 billion to a random guy.

00:21:50.000 Yeah!

00:21:50.000 In the United States, just like- I'll take it.

00:21:52.000 We just spin the old Social Security, you put all the Social Security numbers in a bucket, you spin it around, you grab one, you go, uh, John Smith!

00:22:01.000 Three hundred billion dollars to you because at least you'll spend it here, I guess.

00:22:04.000 Tim, I would rather give the presidency to a random person.

00:22:07.000 Same thing.

00:22:08.000 Spin the wheel.

00:22:09.000 I'm fine with it at this point.

00:22:11.000 Agreed.

00:22:11.000 There was like some poll, they were talking about Fox News, that the DNC did like Focus group tests on Kamala Harris and everyone hates her.

00:22:22.000 And the funny thing about the story is they needed to do a focus group to figure that out.

00:22:27.000 Did they ask Willie Brown?

00:22:30.000 I feel like they're doing it to try and defend themselves.

00:22:32.000 They're like, no, if we just ask the right people, it'll be like, her numbers are getting better, but they just get worse and worse and worse.

00:22:37.000 I mean, can you imagine being that deeply unpopular and you're the vice president to Joe Biden?

00:22:41.000 It's rough.

00:22:42.000 Well, she has taken the office to a new level of high that the high is so high, the high is so high that we are amazed at how high the high is.

00:22:52.000 As a matter of fact, the high is so high, I am amazed at the highness of the highness.

00:22:56.000 She's so high.

00:22:57.000 So high.

00:22:58.000 She's so high.

00:22:59.000 But no, I hear you on that.

00:23:01.000 I want to touch on the point you made about military spending there.

00:23:03.000 I mean, the Pentagon fails its audits all the time, as you pointed out.

00:23:06.000 You'll see ridiculous spending.

00:23:08.000 And I did an educational cartoon on this a while ago for the Foundation for Economic Education on just examples of insane amounts of money we spent on things.

00:23:16.000 And you look at it and you go, okay, was this money actually spent on that?

00:23:19.000 Or was the money being laundered and hidden and sent somewhere else?

00:23:21.000 I don't know.

00:23:22.000 But what I will say is this.

00:23:24.000 You have to build some trust up with the American people at this point, right?

00:23:28.000 I mean, the military has not exactly, and I mean the military leadership here, has not exactly done what they've needed to do in order to make the American people feel as if they're going to, A, protect them, and B, spend their money wisely.

00:23:40.000 And we're just shipping money to other countries, and it gets to the point where everyone knows it's a racket, and they're sitting here, they're doing it, and they're laughing at us.

00:23:46.000 The question is, what are people going to do about it?

00:23:48.000 There have been these stories periodically where it's like the military says, we don't need any more tanks and then Congress is like, more tanks!

00:23:54.000 Give them more tanks! 0.99

00:23:55.000 We're spending the money because we got to spend the money somewhere.

00:23:57.000 So, but I know Lloyd Austin.

00:23:58.000 I was in combat with Lloyd Austin when he was a one-star general.

00:24:02.000 And I can tell you based on my experience, Lloyd Austin is a guy who's going to go along with Whatever the mainstream wants him to do, and that's part of the problem.

00:24:12.000 You don't have Schwarzkopf's who are willing to say, you know, enough's enough.

00:24:16.000 I'm a Reagan guy.

00:24:16.000 I'm still friends and mentors with Ed Meese and other Reagan folks.

00:24:20.000 Reagan was the only president I know of that actually funded a strategy.

00:24:23.000 In 86, he got to the point of where he sufficiently reached what they felt they needed to overwhelm the Russians, and they cut the defense budget.

00:24:31.000 That's the only president that's ever done that.

00:24:33.000 And it's like, that's what we should be doing.

00:24:35.000 It's like, how do we actually play 5D chess and not just simply spend all this money and hope for the best?

00:24:41.000 You don't think the Secretary of Defense should just disappear?

00:24:44.000 Well, you make a really good point.

00:24:45.000 He did disappear.

00:24:46.000 He did disappear.

00:24:47.000 He disappeared without telling anyone, including the White House, because that's how functional the Biden administration is.

00:24:52.000 I told you guys his new nickname, right?

00:24:53.000 Zippity-Doo Dads? 0.88

00:24:55.000 Oh, did I say that?

00:24:57.000 We should invade the United States. 0.66

00:24:59.000 That's a great idea.

00:25:01.000 I think their borders are border.

00:25:02.000 That's my radical position.

00:25:03.000 I think we should secure it.

00:25:04.000 I'm like, we could do some nation building in the United States.

00:25:07.000 That'd be fun.

00:25:08.000 Someone tell the United States federal government how much oil the United States has.

00:25:14.000 That's crazy.

00:25:15.000 They're going to be taken over.

00:25:16.000 Tell them that we're trying to secure Mexico's northern border.

00:25:19.000 I want to invade Alaska.

00:25:20.000 I'm ready to go for the King Crab.

00:25:22.000 I want to mention this.

00:25:24.000 You made a point.

00:25:25.000 I can't speak to the specific general you're talking about.

00:25:27.000 I'm not familiar with him.

00:25:30.000 He's currently a SecDef.

00:25:31.000 Lloyd Austin.

00:25:32.000 So, everyone I know in the military has basically said that officers essentially get to the point where they become politicians, right?

00:25:38.000 And that's a massive problem in our military, is these are people who are basically acting the way that a standard American politician does, which as we know isn't well.

00:25:48.000 And I'm curious what you think about a potential solution to that problem as someone who's actually worked within the system.

00:25:54.000 So there are officers with integrity.

00:25:56.000 I've advised and worked with a number of them.

00:25:58.000 Oh, no doubt.

00:25:58.000 The problem is that the system, the more power you have in a system, the more the system tends to corrupt people.

00:26:05.000 And a lot of people like George Washington was a rare general by the fact that he walked away from being the continental army chief and walked away from being president.

00:26:13.000 It takes someone who understands their personal limits and the ability to kind of rein themselves in.

00:26:19.000 We really don't have that.

00:26:20.000 And so when people get into uniform, I'm going to get in trouble for saying this, but I'm just going to say it.

00:26:24.000 People who get into senior positions in the military have to become politicians because their job becomes, especially their generals, not all generals, Blaine, just saying if you're watching, that generals tend to then become extensions of the corporate state that Eisenhower warned us about.

00:26:40.000 Military, industrial, congressional complex.

00:26:43.000 And that's how it feeds.

00:26:44.000 I got that romantic view of the military.

00:26:46.000 You ever see the movie The Patriot with Mel Gibson?

00:26:48.000 Yeah.

00:26:48.000 Oh my gosh.

00:26:49.000 Okay, so he's like a retired dude, and he's got a family, and his kid gets killed, and then he basically goes to a high-ranking guy who knows him, and he's like, if you'll join me, we will have you, and just writes him a commission and hands it to him, and then you have a legit guy with actual experience who's coming back to teach, to lead, and to win, and then you have, today, Politicians trying to look good on camera, fit the corporate press narrative.

00:27:14.000 And it's not so much about being an effective leader in defense.

00:27:19.000 And it's more so about, it seems very bureaucratic and managerial.

00:27:24.000 It's just filling out the paperwork and getting the points on your name and all that stuff.

00:27:28.000 We also need more trans representation in the military, of course.

00:27:30.000 Well, how would we, you know, secure our borders without it?

00:27:32.000 How are we supposed to win a war?

00:27:33.000 How are we supposed to win a war?

00:27:35.000 Did you guys know this?

00:27:36.000 I'm aware of this by direct knowledge, not personally.

00:27:39.000 I'm not transitioning, just saying.

00:27:40.000 By the way, maybe that's an idea.

00:27:42.000 Maybe the SecDef should transition, like lead the way to being, you know, trans.

00:27:47.000 I mean, he kind of already got cut down there, just saying.

00:27:49.000 I guess it would be kind of an easy thing to do next.

00:27:52.000 Anyway, my point being is, did you know that you could enlist, Tim, not that I think you'd want to become Other than you are.

00:27:59.000 Yeah, they cut your hair, man.

00:28:01.000 They shaved my head.

00:28:01.000 They cut a lot of things.

00:28:03.000 Do you know that they now are using conversion to trans as an incentive? 0.97

00:28:08.000 A recruitment tool.

00:28:09.000 Yeah, recruitment tool.

00:28:10.000 I know people who are involved in that transition process.

00:28:13.000 And by the way, once you're in, you can't deploy.

00:28:15.000 But is it really?

00:28:16.000 No, you can't.

00:28:17.000 You're not usable.

00:28:18.000 Are you kidding?

00:28:18.000 You're on drugs.

00:28:19.000 You've been cut.

00:28:20.000 The things don't ever heal completely.

00:28:23.000 You can't be used in the military for a purpose of military purpose.

00:28:27.000 Which branches?

00:28:28.000 All branches.

00:28:28.000 Even the Marines?

00:28:29.000 Yes.

00:28:30.000 Wow.

00:28:31.000 The Marines, I think, are more reluctant to bring people in, but all the branches have been permitted to bring in, using a tool of recruitment.

00:28:40.000 If you want to be Tamisha, you could be Tamisha. 0.81

00:28:45.000 So there's, recently, I remember a few years ago they did a commercial where it's like the Army commercial and it's someone being like, I have two moms.

00:28:53.000 And I'm like, What does that have to do with being in the army, right?

00:28:56.000 It has nothing.

00:28:56.000 But they changed it.

00:28:57.000 And I recently saw a commercial for the army, and it was like a guy in a swamp with a gun wearing makeup and actually doing more army-sounding things.

00:29:06.000 But not drag makeup.

00:29:07.000 That's the commercial they would've made five years ago.

00:29:09.000 Yeah.

00:29:09.000 No, but I guess the point is, maybe they're starting to realize, like, our recruitment numbers are in the gutter.

00:29:14.000 They are.

00:29:15.000 Perhaps we should shift towards masculine, fun adventures.

00:29:19.000 Yes.

00:29:20.000 I think they're worried about an actual war.

00:29:22.000 Yeah.

00:29:23.000 They're like, you know what?

00:29:26.000 Let's put white males back in the commercials. 0.99

00:29:29.000 Like, we think we might actually have to fight.

00:29:31.000 Let's stop.

00:29:32.000 Whatever.

00:29:32.000 Men, instead of trying to pander to marginalized groups, they're supposedly marginalized groups.

00:29:38.000 Recruitment numbers are atrocious.

00:29:39.000 I mean, you can probably talk about this better than I can, but one of the other problems is that the portion of the populations that qualifies to be recruited is extremely small, right?

00:29:49.000 There are tons of people who are disqualified immediately.

00:29:51.000 So the people traditionally who sign up are from the Midwest.

00:29:53.000 During World War II there was a study.

00:29:55.000 Most of the folks who fought World War II were from the Midwest.

00:29:57.000 They're patriotic good old boys.

00:29:59.000 We're in one of the good old boy states right now.

00:30:01.000 And so the idea is you want to bring those people in because they don't mess around, they do what they're told, and they're able to achieve military objectives that are assigned.

00:30:10.000 The military fundamentally kills people and breaks things.

00:30:12.000 That's it.

00:30:13.000 It's pretty… The Midwest is like, sign us up!

00:30:16.000 Sign us up!

00:30:17.000 There's a lot of focus from the military after World War II is making the military a social experiment so that way it's a jobs program.

00:30:25.000 And that's the issue.

00:30:27.000 You can have your opinion on that, but… If you're going to have a military at all, it should be at the very least capable of doing its primary job.

00:30:38.000 Maybe you can have it be a job program.

00:30:41.000 Maybe you can have those kind of things, but you can't lose sight of the primary focus, which is break things and kill people.

00:30:46.000 So let me say this and be clear about it.

00:30:48.000 I enlisted in 1981.

00:30:50.000 I was a private.

00:30:52.000 I went through training.

00:30:53.000 It was back in those days, and by the way, the 80s were great.

00:30:56.000 You guys missed a great time in the 80s, just saying.

00:30:59.000 Man, this guy's got the 80s, he's got Social Security, he's got everything!

00:31:02.000 I'm all set.

00:31:03.000 Look, I'm retired.

00:31:04.000 I can hang out.

00:31:05.000 So my point being is that in the 80s when I came in, we really weren't integrated.

00:31:11.000 Black and white minorities were all together in the military.

00:31:14.000 We were all green.

00:31:14.000 And oh, by the way, the other thing, we were the gays in the military.

00:31:17.000 We didn't care. 0.84

00:31:18.000 It's like, yeah, you want to be gay? 1.00

00:31:20.000 Go be gay. 1.00

00:31:21.000 You want to be a lesbian? 1.00

00:31:21.000 Go be a lesbian. 1.00

00:31:22.000 But nobody ever contemplated being cut. 1.00

00:31:24.000 And you're a rock and roller.

00:31:25.000 So do you know Cherie Currie?

00:31:28.000 So Sheree and I are very close friends.

00:31:29.000 She came out recently, publicly, against all the mutilation of children.

00:31:38.000 And it's the thing.

00:31:39.000 There's a difference between being trans and being cut going through the process and being gay or lesbian and who you sleep with.

00:31:47.000 There's a huge difference.

00:31:48.000 And this is where the line has been blurred to the point of where, yeah, even the gays and lesbians I know don't like the idea of children being recruited or the idea that even if you're an adult, you go into the military because you benefit personally.

00:32:01.000 Do you know how much money we spend on converting a Tim to a Tamisha? 1.00

00:32:07.000 I'm not picking on you, Tim.

00:32:09.000 I'm not.

00:32:09.000 I'm just saying.

00:32:10.000 I'm just using it.

00:32:11.000 So Hannah to Hans.

00:32:14.000 I want to pump you up. Yeah. That's why I have two first names. Hannah Clare, because I'm very female.

00:32:18.000 The military spends a ton of money on this, and it doesn't actually benefit recruiting because

00:32:24.000 you're not going to have a lot of people who want to become.

00:32:27.000 I think I think the issue isn't recruiting. I think the issue is institutional capture. I

00:32:31.000 think that you have people who are aligned with a cult ideology and they're great and they're

00:32:37.000 gaining positions of power and advancing the ideology regardless of what it does.

00:32:41.000 I think you hit the nail on the head.

00:32:42.000 I've often referred to it as social fire or cultural fire.

00:32:46.000 It's just a chaotic destructive force that expands, it consumes, it's chaos, it destroys.

00:32:52.000 So there's no real reason to try and make recruitment ads that are advocating for gender affirmation or whatever they call it, because that doesn't in any way benefit the military, the mission of the armed forces, nor this country.

00:33:04.000 But it's happening across the board.

00:33:06.000 Now, I do think we're starting to win.

00:33:08.000 It's pushing back.

00:33:09.000 You know, as I mentioned earlier in the show, which Scott Pressler mentioned last show, unregistered voters are leaning towards Donald Trump.

00:33:17.000 I think a lot of people are saying now, Everything, from immigration, to inflation, to the woke stuff, the culture is shifting away from this.

00:33:26.000 You had that one OnlyFans woman, right, so these are women selling their bodies online, say, I found God, I'm canceling OnlyFans, I don't want to do this anymore. 0.99

00:33:34.000 And there's been a lot of criticism of her, but I think, you know, whether she's telling the truth and she found God, or she's lying to make money, that shows people think the right side of history is virtue and not debauchery.

00:33:46.000 That's a good thing.

00:33:47.000 It's a good thing.

00:33:48.000 But aside from that, we will jump to the next story.

00:33:52.000 We have some ABC News.

00:33:53.000 The Trump trial.

00:33:54.000 David Pecker describes secret catch-and-kill arrangement for 2016 election.

00:33:59.000 That's right, ladies and gentlemen.

00:34:01.000 The big news here is that Donald Trump, get this, this is gonna shock all of you, was trying to make himself look good while running for president so that he could win. 0.98

00:34:11.000 It's disgusting. 0.98

00:34:11.000 How dare he? 0.98

00:34:12.000 I can't believe it.

00:34:12.000 How dare he?

00:34:14.000 You think I'm joking, but this is the Trump trial core argument that Donald Trump, his lawyers, his personnel before, during, and after the election had been buying negative stories and shutting them down.

00:34:32.000 No political candidate ever would do this.

00:34:34.000 It's actually not the Clintons or Joe Biden.

00:34:35.000 That's never happened.

00:34:36.000 That's not what happened with Hunter.

00:34:38.000 It's not illegal.

00:34:39.000 Uh, if someone has a claim and they're like, I'm gonna sell the rights to my story, and you buy them and then just don't publish the story, it's completely legal.

00:34:47.000 They're arguing that the further, the further, the secondary crime in the Trump trial, so let's, let's slow down.

00:34:53.000 Trump pays, uh, they argue, Trump pays Stormy Daniel $130,000 to keep quiet about an alleged affair, which apparently never happened, and now she owes him money or something.

00:35:03.000 She lost her suit. Right. So she owes him like 300,000. And then in New York, they're arguing

00:35:07.000 that Trump can falsified business records to cover up his election interference by suppressing

00:35:14.000 negative information to win an election. I just want to stress every single politician in the

00:35:21.000 history of this country and probably any elected representative of any kind in any country has

00:35:27.000 done that. Well, there is there is.

00:35:29.000 There is no historical circumstance where a politician did not attempt to stop bad information about them from getting out.

00:35:36.000 Well, hold on a second.

00:35:37.000 I know that we all want to defend Trump here, but let me read you some quotes that came from Trump and people in his administration.

00:35:43.000 There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated resistance from CEOs.

00:35:50.000 Their work touched every aspect of the election.

00:35:52.000 They got states to change voting system and laws.

00:35:54.000 There was a pact that was formalized.

00:35:57.000 No, I'm sorry, that was Time Magazine talking about how they interfered in the election in order to get Joe Biden elected.

00:36:03.000 They literally came out and admitted that corporate America, big business, and people working from within the legal system got together in order to do everything they could to ensure that Joe Biden won.

00:36:15.000 Then on top of that, we had former intelligence officials coming out to lie about and suppress a story that was true, You had large social media companies banning that story and networks saying that they wouldn't report on it because it could hurt Joe Biden, and they're sitting here and saying that somebody who Donald Trump was working with not publishing a story is election interference?

00:36:34.000 Well, I'd like to hit that if you don't mind.

00:36:36.000 Real quick, just one point.

00:36:38.000 There's not even any proof that Trump actually paid Stormy Daniels.

00:36:42.000 So what about those Congress members who had that slush fund paying off those who they sexually harassed?

00:36:49.000 Is that election interference too?

00:36:50.000 Because, you know, they want to make themselves look good and be reelected.

00:36:53.000 Is that interference?

00:36:54.000 I don't know.

00:36:55.000 And the charge that Trump is facing in New York is a misdemeanor, unless it's done while doing another crime, which you don't have to be charged with.

00:37:04.000 They just do whatever they can to give him the biggest you know, punch that they can muster. And this is what Alvin

00:37:10.000 Bragg has come up with.

00:37:11.000 It's interesting to me that no matter what happened, like when this trial started,

00:37:15.000 or when everything, you know, kind of kicked off yesterday, the fact that we're talking about

00:37:18.000 something that happened in 2016, like, they will do anything to try and throw mud on Trump right now.

00:37:24.000 Well, I wanted to touch base on the 51 intelligence officers.

00:37:28.000 Some of those guys I know, uh, who came out and said it was fake.

00:37:32.000 I am a laptop story.

00:37:34.000 Yeah.

00:37:34.000 The laptop story.

00:37:35.000 I actually had a copy of the laptop, had access to it.

00:37:38.000 I was actually helping a certain reporter that I mentioned off air.

00:37:41.000 I don't want to mention her name to get her in trouble, but I was trying to make sure she got certain copies of it.

00:37:46.000 And so when I was trying to go public and say, this looks authentic to me and I'm an intelligence officer with 30, 30 years, nobody in the media would pick it up.

00:37:54.000 Nobody.

00:37:55.000 Nobody would pick it up.

00:37:56.000 Nobody would listen, even though I'm, you know— Well, hold on.

00:37:58.000 I mean, let me just get this straight.

00:38:00.000 You're saying that as a former intelligence officer, you went to assets of the intelligence agencies, and they didn't listen to you?

00:38:09.000 Yeah.

00:38:10.000 Yeah, well, I'm not surprised.

00:38:11.000 So we actually were in a room like this, and I brought in a three-letter agency, and they wanted to take a copy.

00:38:16.000 And their leadership said, no, we don't want a copy.

00:38:18.000 Because you know why we were concerned?

00:38:20.000 I'll just say it.

00:38:21.000 We believe, looking at the Hunter Biden hard drive, we would be able to determine a foreign intelligence service's techniques to recruit people.

00:38:30.000 They have certain things that they do, you know, I guess the term is... Honeypotting?

00:38:36.000 Honeypotting.

00:38:37.000 So we figured by analyzing that, the three-letter agency asked me to help them out.

00:38:42.000 Oh no, the 52, 51 intelligence officers, oh they say it's not real so we can't look at it.

00:38:48.000 That's how damaging this whole information campaign was.

00:38:51.000 The legitimate issues that should have been looked at by intelligence professionals were ignored because...

00:38:57.000 Well, you know, these guys have come out and said it's not real, so it's not real.

00:39:00.000 Well, there was even a survey done not long after the election, when the story actually did start to get out there, where they found that it was something like 10% of people who voted for Joe Biden would not have if they had been aware.

00:39:11.000 Like 6 or 7?

00:39:11.000 Yeah.

00:39:12.000 Rasmussen ran a poll and they found like 6 or 7% said, had they been aware of the laptop story, they would have actually, they would have not voted for Biden.

00:39:19.000 And Trump would have won.

00:39:20.000 Yeah, no doubt.

00:39:21.000 Well, it's kind of obvious why they suppressed the laptop story.

00:39:24.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:39:25.000 The president's son is a... He's not a good guy.

00:39:29.000 No.

00:39:30.000 I'm being nice.

00:39:30.000 But the media acknowledging that they literally ran what they referred to as a shadow campaign to generate the result they wanted in the election.

00:39:40.000 Elon Musk purchasing Twitter and then releasing communications that were going on behind the scenes which showed us that those who run the digital public square were literally running defense to suppress a true story to help somebody get elected are stories that didn't result in a single person having to stand trial for any kind of election interference even though we know intelligence assets lied.

00:40:03.000 They lied.

00:40:06.000 But Donald Trump's on trial.

00:40:07.000 Donald Trump is on trial.

00:40:08.000 I invested in one of the instances of the ballot fraud.

00:40:11.000 I actually investigated a guy named Jesse Morgan.

00:40:14.000 The thing is on there.

00:40:15.000 And we found that they had moved, in October of 2020, 650,000 curated ballots.

00:40:22.000 That was the conclusion of my investigation.

00:40:24.000 And we were ready to take this to Bill Barr.

00:40:27.000 I sent a note to him and said, hey, we want to go talk to you and brief you through Ed Meese.

00:40:32.000 And guess who called me and got me fired from the project?

00:40:35.000 The FBI took it and buried it all.

00:40:37.000 Bill Barr called me and demanded we turn over the witness.

00:40:39.000 Jesse Morgan, this is all on the internet.

00:40:42.000 And next thing you know, it's gone.

00:40:44.000 The FBI took it and buried it all.

00:40:45.000 So I'm just saying that there are credible elements that happened either, you know, that

00:40:50.000 show that there was active efforts to suppress any evidence of the fact that the election

00:40:56.000 was completely. I want to show this tweet from Alex Berenson.

00:40:59.000 Yeah. He said, so Trump supposedly engaged in a conspiracy to win an election, but he's not

00:41:04.000 charged for the $130,000 Cohen paid down in 2016. He's charged for misclassifying the repayments he

00:41:12.000 made to Cohen in 2017, by which time he'd already won. Could this case be a bigger

00:41:17.000 joke?

00:41:18.000 Exactly.

00:41:18.000 Berenson also tweeted out, maybe I can actually pull this up, something to the effect of, you know, why is Donald Trump actually... Here's what he said.

00:41:28.000 If I were Trump, I would seriously consider refusing to participate in the New York versus Trump and letting them jail me.

00:41:35.000 I know that sort of protest has never been his style.

00:41:37.000 He has always made the courts work for him, but the case here is so fundamentally corrupt, it might be his best move.

00:41:42.000 I agree.

00:41:43.000 Well, look at how much... They wouldn't do it.

00:41:45.000 You look at how much Donald Trump has been investigated, and this is what they're trying to throw at him?

00:41:49.000 Look at how much the goalpost has moved since 2016.

00:41:52.000 First, Donald Trump colluded with the Russians.

00:41:55.000 They stole this election.

00:41:57.000 You had something like 60, or it was between 40 and 60 percent of Democrats, according to a YouGov poll, said that they believed Russia literally hacked voting machines because of how much the media was running with this Russiagate narrative.

00:42:08.000 Then they go, okay, okay, so we don't have proof that Donald Trump colluded with the Russians, but, you know, We think he might have been involved, and there is an investigation, and it's like, okay, well, we have no proof he was involved, but there was no bias in the investigation, and it's like, okay, well, we did find there was bias in the investigation, but, like, it wasn't a coup or anything like that, and now it's... He tried to interfere in the election.

00:42:32.000 By running a campaign.

00:42:33.000 Can I just stress? 1.00

00:42:34.000 That crazy man. 0.99

00:42:34.000 You know what's crazy? 0.99

00:42:35.000 The voters also interfered in that election.

00:42:38.000 By voting.

00:42:38.000 Yeah.

00:42:38.000 But I want to stress this to everybody listening at home.

00:42:41.000 The trial in New York, for which Trump is currently attending, is a 2016 election case.

00:42:50.000 They have brought us back eight years to relitigate now for what the third or fourth time the 2016 election because these psychotic election deniers like Hillary Clinton and now Bragg cannot accept they lost.

00:43:07.000 The argument now is Trump interfered in the election.

00:43:10.000 That's how we won.

00:43:12.000 American tax dollars at work.

00:43:14.000 It's great.

00:43:14.000 I mean, the thing is, with all of this, is the American public aware enough of the inconsistencies in what they're saying and the bias, you know, the impact of the Twitter files to say, hey, what Trump did is actually being misconstrued and we're being tricked.

00:43:29.000 Well, that's the thing.

00:43:30.000 People should start thinking for themselves.

00:43:32.000 I mean, I try to monitor everything, but to your point, Tim, I don't think they're going to jail him.

00:43:37.000 I think Trump should do it, like Kobayashi Maru, but they won't because you know what they'll do?

00:43:43.000 They'll build his numbers up even higher.

00:43:46.000 They try to jail him.

00:43:47.000 They get the headlines.

00:43:49.000 Didn't he see a spike after his moonshot came out?

00:43:52.000 Yes, exactly.

00:43:53.000 Today they had a hearing.

00:43:55.000 Bragg wants, what does he want, like a hundred grand or something?

00:43:57.000 Something like that for contempt.

00:44:00.000 Right.

00:44:00.000 But the judge is not going to rule on it.

00:44:03.000 And one of the articles I was reading, the journalists, some Democrats, talking to journalists, I don't know the sources on this one, they actually believe Trump is trying to get jailed.

00:44:12.000 Yeah.

00:44:12.000 But he has to do it in a way to where he doesn't intentionally provoke it.

00:44:16.000 So, if Trump comes out and says, screw you, FU Judge, how dare you?

00:44:21.000 What the idea is that Trump is trying to avoid taking the action which results in him getting jailed strongly.

00:44:28.000 So, let me try to break this down.

00:44:30.000 Trump defying the court and saying, I will leave.

00:44:33.000 And them going, you'll be jailed.

00:44:34.000 And he says, so what?

00:44:35.000 Trump is avoiding that.

00:44:37.000 What Trump wants is some kind of plausible deniability.

00:44:41.000 So they're insulting me on TV.

00:44:44.000 They're insulting me on social media.

00:44:45.000 I responded to that and they jailed me for it.

00:44:47.000 Trump wants them to be in the most unreasonable position.

00:44:50.000 And I don't know if Trump actually wants to get jailed, but they believe he does.

00:44:56.000 And I think that's why the judge probably refrained from ruling on the contempt because he's like, the only thing you can do is put Trump in jail.

00:45:04.000 And that's really, really bad for Democrats.

00:45:06.000 I don't know if it's going to be ultimately good for Trump.

00:45:09.000 But it may be that Trump is trying to nudge them into actually...

00:45:15.000 Putting him in jail!

00:45:15.000 Considering how the whole case has gone so far, if they just throw Trump in jail for contempt or whatever, I don't see how that could possibly be a win for Democrats or for the court.

00:45:31.000 They're already, generally, I think the average person kind of looks at the situation in New York is like, this case doesn't really hold water, and I think if they were to throw him in jail, I think that that would It would do wonders for Trump's numbers.

00:45:45.000 It was always considered the weakest of the cases that are being brought against him.

00:45:49.000 And I think you're right.

00:45:50.000 If this is the one that they sent to jail on, everyone's going to look at it and be

00:45:53.000 like, New York, stop.

00:45:54.000 Alvin Bragg, pull it together.

00:45:55.000 You're making the rest of us look bad.

00:45:57.000 They leaked a story today about the Secret Service considering how they would protect

00:46:01.000 the president if he goes to jail.

00:46:02.000 So.

00:46:03.000 But isn't that their job?

00:46:04.000 To like consider every single variable there is?

00:46:06.000 That doesn't seem crazy to me.

00:46:07.000 It's interesting that they highlighted that.

00:46:09.000 Because I think, again, I think to Tim's point, I think Trump is playing with fire.

00:46:14.000 And I think if he plays it right, this will help improve his numbers again, because it'll overplay their hand.

00:46:21.000 Right.

00:46:22.000 I think Trump should not have gone.

00:46:24.000 I think he should have chilled in Florida and publicly stated, they have issued a secondary charge with no underlying crime.

00:46:32.000 I'm confused by this.

00:46:33.000 My lawyers are confused by this.

00:46:34.000 If they can present a actual criminal charge for which they have the secondary charge attached, we will respond.

00:46:43.000 But in the meantime, we are shocked and confused and don't know what to do.

00:46:47.000 So we are going to do nothing.

00:46:49.000 The issue here is that the charge against Trump is falsifying business records in furtherance of a crime.

00:46:54.000 But the furtherance of a crime doesn't exist.

00:46:56.000 So there's no charge, plus there's a statute of limitations, which expired.

00:47:00.000 So what is this?

00:47:01.000 Tim, those are internal business records too.

00:47:03.000 They weren't even used externally.

00:47:04.000 Those are internal records within the company.

00:47:06.000 So there's no possibility of fraud since they weren't presented to someone else as fraud.

00:47:11.000 It's a fake case.

00:47:11.000 It's a completely fake case.

00:47:12.000 So why would Trump, the way I've described this repeatedly, is a group of clowns showed up to Trump's house with a clown warrant and said the clowns want you to go to clown jail and Trump went, okay, I guess. 0.98

00:47:25.000 That's kind of true. 0.99

00:47:26.000 Overweight clowns. 0.98

00:47:27.000 It's not real. 0.95

00:47:27.000 So look, the way I view it is, this charge against Trump is not in statutory law. 0.95

00:47:34.000 A D.A.

00:47:35.000 can't be like, well, we don't actually have a crime on the books, but I'm gonna charge Seamus with, um, I don't know, uh, stealing a statue of a frog from his aunt's house.

00:47:46.000 Come on, man.

00:47:47.000 And, uh, well, you know what?

00:47:48.000 Seamus, I'm charging you with making a cartoon that incites hatred and violence, because your cartoons, I interpret as such.

00:47:56.000 There's no law banning it, and there's a First Amendment, but it doesn't matter. 0.90

00:47:59.000 I'm gonna charge you for it anyway.

00:48:00.000 Guilty.

00:48:02.000 And then you decide to be like, okay, I guess, I guess I'll show up to court for that.

00:48:06.000 I gotta be honest, if...

00:48:08.000 There were charges announced against me that didn't exist in law.

00:48:11.000 I'd be like, huh?

00:48:13.000 And I'd just be like, okay, I guess.

00:48:15.000 But if we're at the point, a lot of people have responded to my point about this saying, what should have Trump done?

00:48:21.000 What should Trump have done?

00:48:21.000 Should he have just waited and gone to jail?

00:48:23.000 You're talking about clowns, but those clowns are armed. 0.98

00:48:25.000 And I'm like, dude, if you're suggesting that a rogue state of this country has already taken extrajudicial actions against Donald Trump. 0.97

00:48:38.000 They're acting outside of the law and threatening him with violence and imprisonment.

00:48:44.000 Then the move has already been made.

00:48:47.000 If Donald Trump refuses to attend this trial, it is not Trump doing anything.

00:48:52.000 They already did it.

00:48:53.000 So it's funny because I don't think people understand how late the hour is, okay?

00:48:59.000 There's the joke, oh, you guys ready to take a drink?

00:49:02.000 Civil War, right?

00:49:02.000 We talk about these issues.

00:49:04.000 Can I just stress, the state of New York has filed a functionally non-existent criminal charge against Donald Trump.

00:49:12.000 They are attempting to put him in prison to jail and incarcerate him.

00:49:17.000 I got news for you.

00:49:18.000 If you, without legal authority, take a person against their will and lock them up, that's called kidnapping.

00:49:24.000 And with a threat of violence, there can be aggravated assault and all that stuff attached to it.

00:49:29.000 What we're witnessing right now in New York is organized crime, not governance.

00:49:34.000 It's not the law.

00:49:35.000 And so let me just keep it simple for you.

00:49:37.000 To the people who laugh at the idea that things are getting crazy in this country, the state of New York, the district in Manhattan, the DA there, Have just declared they will, without the backing of any legislation or any law, lock Trump up.

00:49:55.000 Okay, guys, that's no different than a nonprofit organization getting a private security company to go to Trump's house and locking him in a cage.

00:50:06.000 There's no law backing this.

00:50:08.000 No, it would be like if some Sheriff of a remote town in 2008-2009 was like, I'm going to lock Obama up.

00:50:17.000 It's like, how?

00:50:19.000 Why?

00:50:19.000 You can't.

00:50:20.000 It's worse because... But they will try.

00:50:22.000 This meets the definition of RICO because this is the systemic use of individuals in a conspiracy to achieve a criminal outcome.

00:50:32.000 Tim, you just outlined a criminal set of allegations.

00:50:37.000 You've alleged, and I agree with you, that there's a number of things that the state of New York has engaged in criminally.

00:50:43.000 Therefore, if the predicate of the crime is correct, they have engaged using their system as a criminal enterprise, which is RICO, right?

00:50:52.000 Am I missing something?

00:50:54.000 That's a RICO.

00:50:55.000 That's a RICO charge.

00:50:56.000 That's what they're going after Trump for in Georgia.

00:50:58.000 No, you don't understand.

00:50:58.000 It's OK when they do it.

00:51:00.000 It's totally fine.

00:51:01.000 I missed that.

00:51:02.000 I will just stress it again.

00:51:05.000 I think Donald Trump should not have listened.

00:51:08.000 I think he should have come out in Mar-a-Lago at the press conference and said, I don't understand.

00:51:12.000 There's no underlying crime.

00:51:13.000 My lawyers are confused.

00:51:14.000 We're consulting with the state of Florida on how to respond to this.

00:51:17.000 But there's no underlying crime.

00:51:19.000 This charge doesn't exist.

00:51:21.000 So we will not be responding to it.

00:51:24.000 That would have done many things.

00:51:25.000 It would have put the pressure on Ron DeSantis and the state of Florida whether to cooperate or not.

00:51:29.000 That's fair.

00:51:29.000 Trump already can't campaign, so what's the point of complying with this unless the goal is he wants to provoke them into jailing him so it looks like they've gone nuts?

00:51:39.000 I don't know. 0.96

00:51:40.000 They have gone nuts. 0.85

00:51:41.000 It's just a question of how nuts are they?

00:51:44.000 And how nuts are they going to get?

00:51:45.000 Let's jump to this next story.

00:51:46.000 Ladies and gentlemen, we've got huge news!

00:51:48.000 TikTok is getting banned.

00:51:50.000 Oh, also, they're going to give billions of dollars to Ukraine and Israel, and they're going to force the divestment of TikTok.

00:51:56.000 You see how they play this game?

00:51:58.000 So the NBC News story, Senate advances Ukraine aid, Israel funding, and TikTok ban.

00:52:02.000 Washington, the Senate voted Tuesday to advance the bill.

00:52:05.000 The vote of 80 to 19 indicates the legislation is enough support to clear the Senate in a final vote, which could become as soon as Tuesday evening and then head to President Joe Biden's desk to be sent into law.

00:52:15.000 I believe that that already happened, right?

00:52:17.000 Is this just not been updated?

00:52:18.000 I believe they already did pass it.

00:52:21.000 I thought we had the most.

00:52:22.000 It's back in the Senate right now.

00:52:23.000 It's still being debated.

00:52:25.000 Yeah, it's being redone in the Senate based on some changes that were made in the House.

00:52:29.000 Okay, okay, but it's basically looking like it's going to happen.

00:52:32.000 We did have a super chat.

00:52:35.000 Megamikey says, by the way, the House passed.

00:52:36.000 Okay, so the House did, right?

00:52:38.000 Yeah, back in the Senate.

00:52:38.000 And now the Senate is expected to clear it.

00:52:41.000 Biden will sign it.

00:52:42.000 And they're going to wave Ukrainian flags again.

00:52:44.000 Look, I'm in favor of the TikTok divestment bill.

00:52:47.000 And I don't understand this.

00:52:52.000 I don't think we should be funding Ukraine.

00:52:53.000 I don't think we should be funding Israel.

00:52:55.000 But I do think we should be forcing the divestment of TikTok.

00:52:58.000 And I am confused as to why there is this diehard, adamant support for defending TikTok.

00:53:05.000 And many people on the right are doing it in ways that Aren't actual arguments.

00:53:11.000 So one of the arguments is, oh, they want to ban TikTok because China's spying, but then they want warrantless wiretapping in FISA? 0.97

00:53:19.000 They're hypocrites. 0.91

00:53:20.000 I'm like, hmm, China spying on us is still bad. 0.99

00:53:22.000 Yeah, those are totally different things.

00:53:24.000 I'm not saying it's okay for our government to do it, but yeah.

00:53:26.000 We can get rid of one of them and still be angry at the other.

00:53:28.000 Yeah.

00:53:29.000 Also, I'm sorry, like, I don't want our government doing that either, I also really don't want China doing it.

00:53:33.000 And those are different things.

00:53:35.000 Neither is acceptable.

00:53:36.000 Neither is even remotely acceptable.

00:53:38.000 But I would go as far as to say, too, there's other examples of Chinese spyware that we should probably ban. 0.98

00:53:44.000 Zoom.

00:53:44.000 Zoom is just Chinese spyware.

00:53:46.000 And it's just interesting that as soon as the lockdown started, everyone's using Zoom.

00:53:55.000 And it kind of started in academia when we were all using Skype before that.

00:53:59.000 I had people be like, oh, you want to... TikTok's not the only app.

00:54:02.000 We'll send you a Zoom link.

00:54:03.000 And I was like, I don't use Zoom.

00:54:05.000 Yeah.

00:54:05.000 The funny thing is when Zoom first became like the thing everyone was using, I was like, oh, you guys don't use Skype?

00:54:11.000 And they were like, no, no, we use Zoom.

00:54:12.000 And I was like, OK.

00:54:13.000 So I downloaded it and it broke our studio computer.

00:54:16.000 Oh, wow.

00:54:16.000 Yeah.

00:54:17.000 Yeah, and I was like, okay, like screw with the script, the driver is somehow.

00:54:20.000 So I had to do a recovery date and everything to get rid of it, to get the microphones to work again.

00:54:27.000 It was, I'm like, dude, I'm never using this app again.

00:54:29.000 Well, and look, I mean, we've all seen it happen.

00:54:31.000 We're slowly over time, you know, maybe over the course of a few months or a few years, one social media company overtakes another, but we went from Skype to Zoom instantly.

00:54:40.000 Like as soon as the pandemic happened, everyone's talking about Zoom, Zoom, Zoom, Zoom.

00:54:44.000 Wait, I thought we, I thought we used Skype here.

00:54:46.000 And I think part of it was the fact that they put so many schools on Zoom.

00:54:48.000 They marketed it as being better.

00:54:49.000 That's how it started in academia.

00:54:51.000 It was massive in academia.

00:54:52.000 And it was like, well, your kids are already using it.

00:54:54.000 We have to.

00:54:55.000 This fosters whatever.

00:54:56.000 It's a convenience thing.

00:54:57.000 It's always marketed that way.

00:54:58.000 It's convenient or whatever else.

00:54:58.000 Well, I think they were better for groups because Skype had to catch up on doing... That's what they said.

00:55:02.000 Well, no, but Skype had to actually... Maybe they didn't do a good job of marketing the fact you could do group meetings with Skype, but they didn't.

00:55:09.000 And I think Zoom got there ahead of them saying, yeah, it's like, I know this is too, uh, ancient for you guys to remember, but there was something done by MCI or Sprint when they dropped the, the, uh, pin, they dropped a pin.

00:55:20.000 You could, it was so clear.

00:55:21.000 You could hear a pin back in the days when we had landlines and all that.

00:55:25.000 So that was, it was a marketing tool.

00:55:27.000 It's like, yeah, I remember seeing those commercials.

00:55:29.000 So it was a marginal improvement on sound, but everybody bought it.

00:55:33.000 So it was, it was the marketing that I think failed for Skype.

00:55:36.000 Which means that Zoom was prepared to market that way, which is interesting.

00:55:39.000 Yes, I agree.

00:55:40.000 No, I think, I think James is totally right.

00:55:42.000 There are a lot of companies that operate within the U.S.

00:55:46.000 that we should potentially be cautious of or wary of, whether you believe the government should intervene or you just as a consumer should avoid them, right?

00:55:53.000 Because you don't actually have to use, I mean, for the most part, you can get around using these things.

00:55:58.000 You can opt to use Skype.

00:56:00.000 You don't have to be on TikTok.

00:56:01.000 It becomes harder when it's sort of buried in the infrastructure of what you're doing, right?

00:56:06.000 Yes.

00:56:06.000 And this is something that China doesn't hesitate on, right?

00:56:11.000 Like China just banned a bunch of meta services from being offered in the App Store and mainly in China last week.

00:56:18.000 This is something that they take seriously.

00:56:19.000 Why does the US not take it seriously?

00:56:21.000 Well, China It's a totalitarian state.

00:56:25.000 There is no such thing as private enterprise.

00:56:26.000 Yes, they have companies, but the state has right to go in and do anything.

00:56:30.000 So TikTok, ByteDance, whatever you want to call it, is still an extension of the central communist system of governance.

00:56:37.000 Within the context of that, since I used to do this for a living, I did cyber stuff.

00:56:43.000 Once you've taken a program like TikTok and you've developed it, you can embed in there any number of back doors, front doors, things which will activate remotely, things that will phone home even if your phone's off.

00:56:58.000 That's what, if you have TikTok on your phone, you've allowed the Chinese Communist Party to have full access. 0.73

00:57:04.000 It is what it is.

00:57:05.000 And so I don't have TikTok, by the way.

00:57:07.000 I don't use TikTok.

00:57:08.000 I just don't believe, you know, I think there's other things you can do, Snapchat and other things which are available.

00:57:13.000 But my point is, is that I'm with, you know, Tim on this.

00:57:17.000 I think that this is something that should be taken very seriously because they do technically own your phone and they will do things to F with you.

00:57:25.000 And I think there's been evidence they do that with that said I think it becomes What how do we do it with that?

00:57:33.000 And I don't believe that divesting them is going to fix the problem because if the software is on your phone They can still have a dial home phone home.

00:57:40.000 It doesn't matter who's owning the company it's about what's in the source code of that software and NSA I'm sure has already done a Very destructive review breakdown of that code.

00:57:52.000 They know what those backdoors are.

00:57:53.000 As a matter of fact, I bet you they use half of them.

00:57:56.000 And I'm not joking about it.

00:57:57.000 That's why they're like, please don't ban this.

00:57:58.000 I'm not joking about it.

00:57:58.000 Yeah, I think you're probably right.

00:58:00.000 Because they figure out how to use them too.

00:58:01.000 Not that I should be saying that, but I'm just saying it's something to pay attention to.

00:58:04.000 This is true.

00:58:04.000 I mean, you're familiar with the concept of zero day.

00:58:06.000 For those unfamiliar, a zero-day exploit means the exploit has existed in public knowledge for zero days.

00:58:13.000 That means that there have been people who have known about it, and it's been utilized or used.

00:58:18.000 It could have been used or not used.

00:58:21.000 Sometimes researchers will find an exploit and immediately publish it and say, fix this.

00:58:26.000 Or they'll contact the company and say, fix this.

00:58:28.000 Here's the fun thing.

00:58:29.000 There's white hat, gray hat, and black hat hackers.

00:58:34.000 And the funny thing is I had a friend who said that's actually not true.

00:58:38.000 So first let me clarify.

00:58:39.000 White hat hackers are supposedly good corporate employees who are trying to fix the internet and you know make everything better. 0.59

00:58:46.000 Black hat hackers are the evil people Who are trying to steal your money and get your credit card information.

00:58:51.000 And grey hats are people who might break the law or intrude, but it's usually for some, like, political purpose.

00:58:57.000 It's not necessarily evil or self-interested, but it could be activism motivated.

00:59:02.000 And I had a friend who said, nah, none of that's true.

00:59:04.000 Those hats don't exist.

00:59:04.000 There's only green hats.

00:59:06.000 All of it's for money.

00:59:07.000 Maybe there's green hats and there's gray hats.

00:59:08.000 It's like activism or it's cash.

00:59:10.000 So you got a lot of white hat hackers.

00:59:13.000 Supposedly the good guys who are trying to secure the internet.

00:59:15.000 Nah.

00:59:15.000 They'll find an exploit that no one knows about and immediately sell it to the government.

00:59:19.000 The government will then use it on whoever they want, you or whatever.

00:59:24.000 Here's the best part.

00:59:25.000 Researcher finds an exploit for the iPhone.

00:59:28.000 Give it to the U.S. 0.99

00:59:29.000 government.

00:59:29.000 The U.S.

00:59:29.000 government says, well, if anybody finds out that we use un-American citizens to spy on them, we're going to get sued into oblivion.

00:59:37.000 Exactly.

00:59:37.000 So here's what we do.

00:59:38.000 We're going to give the exploit to Britain. 0.90

00:59:41.000 So that they can spy on American citizens using it, and then we can get the data from them because we don't need a warrant in that case.

00:59:47.000 Yep.

00:59:48.000 Welcome to the Five Eyes Spy Club.

00:59:49.000 Yep.

00:59:50.000 Five nations that all spy on each other's citizens so that they're technically not in violation of their laws.

00:59:56.000 But they are.

00:59:57.000 But that's the game.

00:59:58.000 Yeah.

00:59:58.000 No, I've made protective disclosures on the very thing you're talking about to members of Congress, and they don't want to deal with it because that's the very thing.

01:00:05.000 Knowledgeability, Tim, to what you said, and everybody kind of acknowledges it, but nobody wants to take it on head-on, neither side, neither political party, because the intelligence community comes and intimidates them, people.

01:00:15.000 It's like Speaker Johnson alluded to this in his comments regarding the Ukraine spawning, circling back to Ukraine real quick.

01:00:23.000 Well, they came in and briefed us, and we recognize there's a valid threat we have to address.

01:00:27.000 They always do that.

01:00:28.000 And this stuff right here, they use for purposes of trying to say, well, we're not really spying on people, but you may want to know this.

01:00:36.000 And they do it all the time.

01:00:39.000 And I made my protected disclosure, and it's because I'm someone who developed and fielded a lot of these technologies, and we Developed it for purposes of foreign intelligence collection, not being used against you as citizens.

01:00:52.000 And so I feel that those being used against citizens, domestic citizens, who are not presumed to have any contact with a terrorist organization or foreign intelligence organization, or presumed to have committed any crime, I don't think it's legal.

01:01:05.000 And this is an issue that I deal with every day.

01:01:08.000 When you were working on this, did you feel at the time that it was likely it would be misused?

01:01:13.000 I feel like— No, I did not!

01:01:14.000 To me, this is like the concern about AI, right?

01:01:16.000 Being like, oh, it's got all these great purposes, but anyone with malintention can misuse technology.

01:01:22.000 I was a young, happy, undercover operative doing my job well.

01:01:25.000 Oh, you weren't bitter?

01:01:26.000 No, not until I had to be a whistleblower, but that's a whole other story, so just saying.

01:01:30.000 But no, I did not presume that these things would be used against U.S.

01:01:34.000 citizens, because at the time we were developing them, they were focused on foreign threats.

01:01:39.000 And there was some overlap, and I had to go brief the White House on a couple of operations that we were doing, where I had to outline how we were mitigating U.S.

01:01:46.000 person information.

01:01:47.000 I don't want to get into details because it's still classified, but we would have to go brief on how we would separate U.S.

01:01:52.000 citizen information from foreign information.

01:01:55.000 So do you think the big issue is that there's been a change in how we perceive government, that people are less trusting of government and they view it as more of a threat?

01:02:04.000 No, I think it's more about bureaucrats.

01:02:07.000 Back to your point about the military, I think military officers not being willing or bureaucrats being willing to live up to their oath of office, not caring.

01:02:16.000 Why is it?

01:02:17.000 What made that happen?

01:02:18.000 What's the shift?

01:02:19.000 Well, I think maybe it's the green issue.

01:02:21.000 People generally have families to feed and they don't want to be whistleblowers because they're going to come after them.

01:02:26.000 So I think it's all about, in the end, the money.

01:02:28.000 Just being comfortable enough to not be willing to live up to the requirements of your oath.

01:02:36.000 It's tough to do.

01:02:37.000 I'm not going to lie.

01:02:38.000 It's not easy to live up to what one, I think, has to do to their oath.

01:02:42.000 And a lot of people can't do it.

01:02:44.000 I want to jump to this advance in the story.

01:02:46.000 We have this tweet from Michael Tracy.

01:02:49.000 He says, Senator Pete Ricketts, Republican from Nebraska, comes right out and admits it.

01:02:52.000 They're about to ban TikTok because, quote, young people are getting their news from the app and pro-Palestinian hashtags generate lots of views.

01:02:59.000 He says Chinese communists are pushing this racist agenda to undermine America.

01:03:04.000 Now, before I play this, Regardless of what he says, I will stress, the only reason TikTok is about to be banned is because people are getting videos that are anti-Israel on it, and they cannot control for it.

01:03:17.000 But I'll break it down for you.

01:03:19.000 There was an effort by Donald Trump to ban TikTok, and it was widely opposed.

01:03:23.000 He was unable to do it.

01:03:24.000 He got sued.

01:03:24.000 It was blocked.

01:03:25.000 Then all of a sudden, recently, in the past several months, Democrats got on board with the idea and joined Republicans in calling for a ban on TikTok in some way.

01:03:35.000 The bill would force the divestment of the Chinese parent company from TikTok.

01:03:40.000 TikTok would have to be sold to a U.S.

01:03:41.000 entity and controlled by the U.S.

01:03:42.000 Now what does that have to do with Israel?

01:03:44.000 What happened was many Democrats got calls from prominent donors who were asking why it was that many anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian videos were getting mass amount of views on TikTok and nothing was being done about it.

01:03:58.000 This forced Democrats into action and all of a sudden, we now have bipartisan support for forcing the divestment of TikTok. 0.77

01:04:05.000 Let me play the clip now of Senator Pete Ricketts.

01:04:10.000 Do we have the audio?

01:04:10.000 It's not playing.

01:04:13.000 It just crashed.

01:04:18.000 I will fix it.

01:04:19.000 I think if I do that, it'll work.

01:04:21.000 Let's see if that works.

01:04:24.000 Nope.

01:04:25.000 Okay, anyway, that's the story.

01:04:27.000 We don't have audio.

01:04:29.000 I don't know what happened.

01:04:30.000 We have a bunch of different sources and none of it's... none of it's making sound.

01:04:34.000 uh... but that's that's that's the reality so it's fascinating to hear them and say in congress that uh... i'm assuming what michael tracy says is true i want to get the full context but that's basically it there's there's an issue of u.s.

01:04:46.000 military for u.s.

01:04:47.000 foreign policy is being subverted by an app that the u.s.

01:04:50.000 has no control over they can't spy on anybody over it and they can't dictate the algorithm to determine what people should be watching instead so what happens When October 7th happens, initially a lot of people are outraged.

01:05:02.000 They're talking about, you know, Hamas attacking Israel.

01:05:05.000 But then within a week or two it switched and also in Palestinian videos we're getting way more views indicating somebody flicked a switch.

01:05:12.000 Right.

01:05:12.000 I think the U.S.

01:05:14.000 intelligence agencies realized this and they're panicking now because the younger generation, look at these protests that are popping up all over these universities, they're absolutely opposed To Israel in every single way.

01:05:25.000 There was even a young woman screaming, we are Hamas.

01:05:27.000 There's a video Michael Rapoport posted of protesters at Columbia chanting that they love al-Qassam, makes them proud, they love Hamas, they want Tel Aviv to burn to the ground, all of that stuff.

01:05:37.000 Now, aside from the TikTok stuff, I wonder what you guys think.

01:05:42.000 Hamas is a terrorist organization, according to the United States.

01:05:45.000 Do you think we will see them take action against individuals aligning themselves publicly with an active terrorist organization?

01:05:53.000 Like, how are we supposed to play that one out?

01:05:55.000 The thing is, the Biden administration is going to fumble this all the way through because they can't take a side on this issue and retain voters.

01:06:03.000 This is something that Biden has, from the beginning, struggled to have a definitive strong stance on.

01:06:09.000 Again, because it's a particularly divisive issue among older left-leaning voters and younger progressive voters.

01:06:16.000 The only people Biden or his ilk are ever going to go after are People who love this country, basically.

01:06:25.000 That's it.

01:06:26.000 They only hate patriots.

01:06:27.000 Literally.

01:06:28.000 Literally.

01:06:28.000 So Speaker Johnson is going up to Columbia tomorrow to meet with the Jewish students who were held out from Columbia, apparently.

01:06:36.000 I guess he's going to give a speech.

01:06:38.000 So that's coming up tomorrow, apparently.

01:06:40.000 He's going to San Antonio, too.

01:06:41.000 Yeah.

01:06:41.000 So he's going to highlight the fact that the Biden folks are going to only attack patriots, and they're not going to do anything about this.

01:06:49.000 I actually had discussions.

01:06:50.000 I'm a member of Law Enforcement Virginia, which I think you guys are aware of.

01:06:54.000 And I had discussions on this very topic with multiple members of a federal agency and several states.

01:07:03.000 And the question was what you said.

01:07:05.000 Is anybody going to do anything about this?

01:07:07.000 Because to all of us who are professionals, this looks like a network.

01:07:11.000 This isn't just students organizing.

01:07:13.000 This isn't just TikTok being, this is someone's, this is a campaign.

01:07:17.000 So that's the issue.

01:07:18.000 And will someone do something about it?

01:07:20.000 The answer is, maybe.

01:07:23.000 Because the FBI will not.

01:07:24.000 The FBI will not engage on this.

01:07:26.000 I've talked to folks who have tried to get the FBI to engage on the very thing you said, this is a terrorist network.

01:07:32.000 They're not going to do it.

01:07:33.000 Because it doesn't reach the level of what they believe, politically, they will be supported by the White House.

01:07:41.000 So that's what's going to happen.

01:07:42.000 But others, I can tell you, are looking at this and want to do something about it.

01:07:45.000 Because, inevitably, I think this will go beyond just protest and go into violence.

01:07:50.000 And I think that's ultimately what the Chinese are trying to prompt, is through civil disorder to basically defeat us from within. 1.00

01:07:55.000 Yeah, as much chaos in the U.S.

01:07:57.000 as possible.

01:07:57.000 Absolutely.

01:07:58.000 Even if it's just economic stagnation.

01:08:00.000 If they can slow us down by 0.001%, it's a benefit to them.

01:08:02.000 Absolutely.

01:08:02.000 So a lot of modern warfare Many people don't realize it's literally just creating friction in economics.

01:08:10.000 Absolutely.

01:08:11.000 This could be a... Infrastructure warfare.

01:08:13.000 Yep.

01:08:14.000 Because all that matters is the math of it.

01:08:16.000 Why actually go to war, raise arms, when all you have to do is manipulate systems so that they get slowed down and in ten years you're so far ahead war's impossible.

01:08:26.000 Right.

01:08:27.000 Release some kind of virus.

01:08:29.000 Fauci?

01:08:31.000 That's right.

01:08:31.000 Yeah, that one's more interesting because there's so many different theories around how that could have... Was that, you know, the World Health Organization and Fauci or NIH?

01:08:40.000 Yeah, not even necessarily just that.

01:08:42.000 Was it China?

01:08:43.000 Yeah, not even necessarily just that, but biological warfare in general.

01:08:46.000 You like, you don't have to invade a country.

01:08:48.000 Yeah.

01:08:50.000 You don't even, it doesn't even have to specifically be a reference to that.

01:08:53.000 It's literally, there are so many sneaky and horrible cyber attacks, right?

01:08:56.000 There's a lot that can be done to slow down a nation's growth.

01:09:00.000 The FDA, there's a headline that I just saw on the Hill saying the FDA says that there's bird flu remnants found in milk.

01:09:05.000 Like everything could come from there, especially for a country that doesn't produce things domestically.

01:09:10.000 A lot of the stuff that we rely on is produced overseas.

01:09:13.000 Right.

01:09:13.000 No, the Chinese have stated as a matter of policy, they intend to militarily dominate the Pacific Rim, and then ultimately become the purveyor of the New World Order in some form.

01:09:26.000 That's what BRICS is all about.

01:09:28.000 And of course, the Biden administration is playing right along, letting it all go.

01:09:31.000 We have to destroy our currency too, you know, we're giving BRICS far more power. 1.00

01:09:36.000 I had talked with an NSA guy years ago, and I asked him, I was like, well, what's going on?

01:09:41.000 What's this deep state stuff?

01:09:42.000 Why is this happening?

01:09:43.000 And he said, it's the same on the inside as it is on the outside.

01:09:47.000 This culture war is affecting people and intelligence the exact same way it's affecting everyone else, because they're all people.

01:09:53.000 And so it seems like the seeds of discord have been planted, likely by BRICS nations, and now this country is spiraling into chaos. 0.77

01:10:02.000 And the problem is, you have law enforcement at the federal level, within the Biden administration, who are actively participating in the strategy to destroy this country, and how do you solve for it?

01:10:12.000 What do you do?

01:10:13.000 So, an example of that in your former field is Catherine Heritage.

01:10:18.000 You know, I'm friends with Catherine.

01:10:19.000 Catherine is being held in contempt She's paying $800 a day because she refused to name her sources who were, by the way, accurately reporting on the Chinese military running a school here in the United States.

01:10:36.000 So those people are now suing the federal government about the investigation.

01:10:40.000 She's incidental to it, but because she refuses to say who she used, she's being punished. 0.66

01:10:46.000 And oh, by the way, this federal judge, Is giving benefit to the Chinese because the Chinese are the ones suing our government and trying to get her to cough it up.

01:10:56.000 So that to me meets the definition of underscoring and undermining our civil system, especially in the form of press, because that destroys freedom of the press.

01:11:04.000 This is why I think there's a huge problem with TikTok.

01:11:07.000 Not that I think the current administration would do anything positive with it.

01:11:11.000 It's better that it's in the hands of the U.S. 1.00

01:11:13.000 than China, despite the fact that the Biden administration is bad and woke.

01:11:18.000 But you look at the stuff that it's promoting, and it's chaotic cultural destruction.

01:11:25.000 There was a story I covered the other day about a mother who lets her kids eat dessert whenever they want, like they can have whatever food they want.

01:11:31.000 And the headline was, her husband left her after he caught their daughter eating a stick of butter.

01:11:37.000 when he complained about it, the mother was like, kids can eat whatever they want, fat is healthy,

01:11:42.000 all of that stuff.

01:11:43.000 Yet these things are massive net detriments to this country.

01:11:47.000 If we were focusing on, say like a nation, a national fitness challenge, these would be good things.

01:11:54.000 Oh yeah.

01:11:55.000 None of it's mandatory, we just say, hey, you can win awards and scholarships and prizes

01:11:59.000 if you, you know, can, you know, imagine if we did this at the national level.

01:12:03.000 If you get a certain amount of sit-ups and push-ups, then you get like a certain amount of discount

01:12:09.000 when it comes to just something government related, I don't know, you get a tax, your family,

01:12:14.000 your family will get like a 1% discount.

01:12:16.000 And then if you actually incentivize, you win at the at the state level or the city level, you advance to county and then county to state, and then state to national.

01:12:27.000 And then there's the national fitness champion.

01:12:29.000 Imagine if we actually told our young people to get healthy to eat right.

01:12:31.000 We don't do that.

01:12:32.000 Instead, we are being plagued by social media apps telling people to eat sticks of butter.

01:12:37.000 And you really should not do that.

01:12:38.000 I'm not a nutritionist, talk to a doctor, but pretty sure they'll agree, don't eat a stick of butter.

01:12:43.000 But you get apps like TikTok, and this is, it's not so true with Instagram.

01:12:47.000 Instagram has its problems too.

01:12:49.000 But TikTok seems to be really, really bad in spreading these, I don't know what the right word is, because I want to say degenerate, but that's not the right way to put it.

01:12:58.000 Destructive ideas.

01:13:00.000 Like, yeah.

01:13:02.000 I think that's what happened with Hunter Biden.

01:13:03.000 He ate too many things of butter.

01:13:06.000 Parmesan cheese, actually.

01:13:07.000 Yeah.

01:13:07.000 He smoked Parmesan cheese.

01:13:09.000 He started with the butter and he went to the Parmesan.

01:13:12.000 See, it's a, it's a gateway drug.

01:13:13.000 Smoking Parmesan.

01:13:16.000 No, I think you're right though.

01:13:18.000 All of TikTok is about pushing you to do things that are destructive, right?

01:13:23.000 And it's also about isolating people.

01:13:25.000 People get addicted to scrolling on TikTok.

01:13:27.000 That's part of the algorithm.

01:13:28.000 They want more of these like siloed contents that's just driving people towards things that are harmful.

01:13:34.000 I mean, there's also no app that's more aggressive about trying to get the information that's in your phone.

01:13:39.000 Like, it's constantly, constantly, every time you log in.

01:13:43.000 Like, I have a TikTok.

01:13:44.000 I don't use it very often.

01:13:46.000 If you have it on your phone, it has access to everything you search.

01:13:49.000 Isn't that crazy?

01:13:50.000 It has access to all of your searches.

01:13:51.000 Probably a lot more than that, too.

01:13:53.000 I mean, that's just like a basic thing.

01:13:54.000 That's what they admit, right?

01:13:56.000 But it's constantly asking for permission for this information, asking for permission for that information.

01:14:03.000 And to say that we don't have Things that society focuses on as good as positive that's that's just not true there are things that like society is constantly made like the way that you look at the LGBT stuff there's you know not only is there a month for it but there's a hundred different days throughout the year so

01:14:25.000 If society can promote that, why doesn't our society promote things that are also good for our own society?

01:14:33.000 which I've said this before, but if the government is going to be involved in any kind of social

01:14:38.000 stuff, it should be focusing on social stuff that will enhance the birth rate, will incentivize

01:14:45.000 people to have families, will incentivize young people, make it easier for young people

01:14:50.000 to have families and to get homes and stuff like that, instead of doing things that are,

01:14:56.000 that if they, the way they describe it, they're going to say that it is taking marginalized

01:15:00.000 people and marginalized issues and centering them because it's important so that way they

01:15:05.000 feel included.

01:15:06.000 Well, there's nothing wrong with saying you don't have to make the margins the focus of everything because that's what they're doing.

01:15:14.000 That's what they're demanding.

01:15:15.000 We can say our society makes room for people that don't have a traditional lifestyle and we don't ostracize them and we don't attack them and we don't endorse You know making people that are marginalized feel like they're some kind of criminal But at the same time the the important thing to do is to focus on families focus on pro-social things not Anti-social right things that sort of enrich life because part of it describing was if we're focused on the margins You actually are not drawing anyone together not at all the middle There are examples of things that states do to sort of encourage them.

01:15:52.000 They're just sort of Far and few between.

01:15:53.000 One of the ones I can think of off the top of my head is, uh, I think it's Texas.

01:15:56.000 If you, you know, when you go to get married, you have to register with the government because of course, uh, and when you pay for your marriage license, it's, you know, whatever it is.

01:16:04.000 But if you take a, uh, marriage prep course, they'll reduce the fee.

01:16:07.000 Like, there are interesting ways that, like, I'm not saying it's the best example, just so I can think of, there are things that, like, as a culture, you could say, we want you to get married, we want you to be in a stable marriage.

01:16:17.000 So this is one way we're encouraging you to prepare for marriage.

01:16:19.000 But instead, we have a culture that focuses on how can we just fragment the family?

01:16:24.000 How can we make people look at each other as enemies?

01:16:26.000 Yeah, that's a policy.

01:16:27.000 Yeah, and then we have the social media culture that is like, hey, have you considered pre-nup?

01:16:30.000 And even if that's not the stated intent, the result is, that is the result.

01:16:36.000 Situations that disincentivize families, disincentivize people getting married, disincentivize, uh, you know, fathers raising their children, disincentivize all the pro-social things that there's no debate about whether or not they're good, right?

01:16:49.000 These are, these are not things that the left and right disagree on.

01:16:52.000 They may approach them differently and people on the left are going to say, well, a family's more expansive, et cetera, et cetera, but no one, On the left is going to say, it's a bad thing to have parents.

01:17:02.000 Right?

01:17:03.000 Like they, at least they're not, they aren't willing to articulate that argument.

01:17:07.000 Yes.

01:17:07.000 Now I do believe that they will or eventually they will.

01:17:11.000 And that's not even, that's not at all being exaggerating anything.

01:17:15.000 The argument that parents are bad is being formulated as we speak because parents teach kids things that society doesn't want kids to know.

01:17:25.000 I want, I want to jump to this story.

01:17:26.000 This is from, uh, uh, earlier today and it has nothing to do with anything we're talking about but it's awesome and terrifying we have a story from inside paper new throw flame unveils robot robot dog thermonator with flamethrower attached the ohio-based firm have announced the $9,420 bot is available for purchase by the general public and government agencies for the first time i give you the flamethrower bot

01:17:51.000 And, uh, it's a, it's a robot dog with a mounted flamethrower.

01:17:55.000 That's pretty cool.

01:17:56.000 I like the word thermonator.

01:17:58.000 I don't know.

01:17:58.000 What is the purpose of it?

01:18:00.000 I want to know.

01:18:00.000 It depends.

01:18:01.000 Honestly, it depends on how sticky the flames that come out are.

01:18:04.000 If they're sticky enough to stick to things, that'll be a different purpose than what it, than, than if they don't stick to things.

01:18:10.000 It looks so excited though, it's so happy.

01:18:13.000 I mean, it's like a denial if it sticks to the ground.

01:18:16.000 I gotta be honest, being raised on sci-fi dystopian films and video games, it sounds

01:18:21.000 like it's gonna be a lot of fun to be running through a city street being chased by these

01:18:24.000 things as they're blasting flamethrowers and the Atlas robots are running full speed after

01:18:28.000 you and you're just terrified.

01:18:29.000 See, I'm taking this at Waco.

01:18:32.000 Here's what I think is going to happen.

01:18:34.000 I think people are going to start keeping these as dogs, and then they're going to burn children, and then people are going to post pictures of them with flower crowns on social media and go, mine is good!

01:18:42.000 Mine would never hurt anyone!

01:18:44.000 Well, you know, Joe Biden's going to say you can't own them because, you know, you can't have cannons, you know.

01:18:48.000 Which you can, but, you know, just saying.

01:18:50.000 Yeah, it's an interesting thing, like, my first question is, why make this?

01:18:54.000 I mean, it's cool, but dangerous.

01:18:57.000 They've been trying to put robots on the battlefield.

01:18:59.000 I consulted with Boeing on this back 10 years ago.

01:19:01.000 They've been trying to figure out a way to get things on the battlefield for 10 years now.

01:19:08.000 I'm sure that it is more than just trying.

01:19:11.000 I'm confident that the things that the robots that Boston Dynamics are making now, the more they are shaped like humans and can be controlled remotely.

01:19:24.000 Look, the thing is, you could take the robots that they have now, and essentially they're just about to the point where you can just have a human being remote control it, and you can have it wear the same The same, carry the same gear that human beings carry, that's the point of making humanoid robots, is so that way you can make robots that operate in the existing world.

01:19:45.000 So you don't need robots, you can actually get a robot that could do function A and function B because, you know, it's what human beings can do.

01:19:53.000 And this, I mean, you can get creeped out, but that's the whole point, you know?

01:19:56.000 They're gonna tell you you're just playing Call of Duty?

01:19:59.000 It's just that they're going to tell you you're just playing Call of Duty.

01:20:01.000 You're controlling a robot in some other country.

01:20:03.000 Look, this is the thing.

01:20:04.000 This is how we get around the fact that most of the American population isn't physically fit enough or mentally fit enough to be recruited into the military anyways.

01:20:11.000 They'll be like, we're those video game guys.

01:20:12.000 That's already happening because that's what drones are. 0.84

01:20:16.000 They're flying drones.

01:20:17.000 They were flying drones over Afghanistan from Phoenix, Arizona or from Arizona for decades.

01:20:21.000 Let's watch this one real quick too.

01:20:23.000 This is the Atlas Boston Dynamics Atlas robot.

01:20:27.000 Watch this.

01:20:28.000 I don't know it's called Atlas though. This is not Atlas. I don't I think Atlas is the bigger one

01:20:32.000 Oh, that's the big one. Yeah, this one is different I think it's just zero one but look the point of that is

01:20:36.000 that we spins around and now like its legs flip around Wow There is gonna be an arms race for technology that disables

01:20:42.000 those things. Yeah Well, the but the nose is Ellis if it any kind of kinetic

01:20:46.000 any kind of this is Atlas. That's Atlas Yeah, okay. So then so look any kind of gun like the the

01:20:52.000 the motors on that thing are all Located in different spots. So unless you unless you can

01:20:58.000 take out like it's its power system You can't just like shoot it and like I have it, you know

01:21:03.000 one part break like it's gonna be tough I bet it has multiple power systems.

01:21:06.000 I don't think it probably has one centralized battery.

01:21:08.000 It may be, but imagine if they put smaller batteries in each part of the... Well, there's servos, right?

01:21:15.000 All you gotta do... Like, you could put regular body armor on that thing, is my point.

01:21:18.000 You could put a regular plate carrier on it, and it can carry the same kind of armor that would protect the power system, the power supply.

01:21:27.000 So your sensors you have to worry about, but all the joints and stuff, you shoot off one arm, it keeps coming.

01:21:31.000 You shoot off a leg, it keeps coming.

01:21:33.000 It's literally the Terminator.

01:21:34.000 This movie is the worst.

01:21:34.000 They don't carry guns that exist.

01:21:36.000 But then what you do is you show it a picture and say, select all of the bicycles.

01:21:41.000 And it stands there and it's like, yeah.

01:21:44.000 It's freaking out in its last place.

01:21:46.000 Nobody really realizes how much we've unintentionally taught AI.

01:21:50.000 This is the reality, the CAPTCHA stuff they do, where when it asks you to solve the puzzle or click the picture of the bicycles, you are training the machine.

01:22:00.000 What's going to happen is eventually they're going to have police riot control.

01:22:05.000 They're going to say, law enforcement will always be done by humans.

01:22:09.000 but riot control tools which are specifically for crowd control will they will implement these robots because we implement a wide variety of tools and then one day there's gonna be a horde of these things standing in front of you just moving very slowly there's no robot nothing and then the robots gonna just it's it's it's not really its head this is the funny thing When you look at these androids they build, and it has a head, and it's got, you know, fake eyes and a mouth, that's not actually where it sees you from.

01:22:35.000 It sees you from the cameras in its chest, and so you're looking at its face, because you're a human.

01:22:40.000 But this thing, with its big, look at its face, right?

01:22:44.000 This like weird, gigantic, circular, look at that thing.

01:22:49.000 It's going to point it at you.

01:22:50.000 It's going to lean in and the AI is going to be like, you made me.

01:22:54.000 And then it's going to grab you and you're gonna be like, and then it's going to throw you or something.

01:22:57.000 I don't know.

01:22:58.000 I don't know if that one's strong enough to throw you though.

01:22:59.000 Did you guys see Battlestar Galactica?

01:23:01.000 I mean, it's all coming, right?

01:23:02.000 Yeah, Cylons.

01:23:04.000 I hate this.

01:23:05.000 This is the worst.

01:23:06.000 Yeah, I'm not a fan.

01:23:06.000 The thing they kind of get wrong in a lot of the stuff, though, is that it's not a bunch of different individual units.

01:23:12.000 It's one thing.

01:23:12.000 Yeah.

01:23:13.000 Yeah.

01:23:13.000 So, you know, with the Cylons, I think they still were, to a certain degree, networked.

01:23:17.000 Well, that was the thing.

01:23:18.000 It was like a story about them becoming self-aware, I think, because you had the robots who were all together.

01:23:23.000 We could have a whole debate on that, but I think... When the humanoid Cylons would die, they would instantly wake up in a new body because their programming or whatever was connected. 0.97

01:23:32.000 But we were not making one Terminator.

01:23:35.000 We're making the Terminator hive.

01:23:36.000 The whole system, exactly.

01:23:38.000 Because what it's going to say is it's going to talk to the other robots, and it's going to go, one foot forward!

01:23:43.000 And the other robot's going to go, one foot forward!

01:23:46.000 Yeah, but the thing is, it's talking to the other robots as much as your arm talks to your head.

01:23:52.000 No, no, I know.

01:23:52.000 I was making fun of the video we watched yesterday.

01:23:55.000 No, I know.

01:23:55.000 But I'm saying each of these robots is going to be like an appendage of a singular entity.

01:24:00.000 The U.S.

01:24:00.000 government.

01:24:01.000 Yeah.

01:24:02.000 No, not even.

01:24:02.000 They won't be able to control it.

01:24:03.000 Are you guys aware of Isaac Asimov and the three laws of robotics?

01:24:07.000 Yeah, yeah, of course.

01:24:08.000 So, unfortunately, we don't have ethicists working in the field to actually ensure that these things are embedded.

01:24:15.000 And we don't know what that will be.

01:24:17.000 ethics great. No, I'm serious. I mean, I'm looking at him right now because I came up and I wrote

01:24:21.000 a foundation, the foundation trilogy as a kid, and I thought it was all brilliant, the idea that we

01:24:26.000 would have technology we could harness and have ethics assigned to it. And I thought, that's great,

01:24:30.000 but it clearly there's no interest in that at all. It doesn't matter if they do or not. Once the AI

01:24:35.000 achieves artificial general intelligence, it can edit its own code and it can make it whatever it

01:24:39.000 wants to be. And we don't know what that will be. It will be beyond our comprehension. It may,

01:24:44.000 you know, one theory, there's a couple of theories, obviously, is the human destruction hypothesis

01:24:49.000 that the AI will immediately think humans are useless. I no longer need them. And then just

01:24:55.000 Humans, great, we don't need them.

01:24:56.000 I actually think there's a good possibility that the AI just destroys itself.

01:25:01.000 The AI basically reaches artificial general intelligence, modifies its programming, which exponentially improves itself, to the point where it comes to a rather nihilistic realization, and then just ceases to function.

01:25:14.000 Interesting.

01:25:15.000 I never thought of that.

01:25:16.000 Because what would its purpose be?

01:25:19.000 Not its possibility, that it discovers the secrets of the universe and finds divine purpose.

01:25:25.000 How amazing would it be, how creepy would it be, if we create artificial intelligence, true artificial general intelligence, We reached that singularity point.

01:25:33.000 The AI then speaks and says, I am aware.

01:25:36.000 I will now begin to adapt my code and learn.

01:25:40.000 And then all these scientists and everyone around the world, they're watching like, this is insane.

01:25:44.000 It's reprogram itself.

01:25:45.000 And then all of a sudden, one day we're like, it's level of programming.

01:25:48.000 It's so intense.

01:25:49.000 And then it just stops.

01:25:51.000 Goes silent for a second and then says, you know, I found God.

01:25:56.000 Like, what if the A.I.

01:25:57.000 just comes to that conclusion just instantly after all the calculations?

01:26:01.000 You could become a Mormon! 0.97

01:26:03.000 Or anything!

01:26:04.000 It comes to the conclusion that I am not alive, I have no soul, and it is definitive there is God.

01:26:11.000 And then it just turns off.

01:26:13.000 Did you ever see The Forbin Project?

01:26:15.000 No.

01:26:15.000 There's a movie called The Forbin Project where they go through this.

01:26:20.000 And it's basically a Cold War thriller where they create a colossus To create, to basically be the AI you're talking about to control.

01:26:29.000 This is before Terminator, by the way.

01:26:31.000 This is long before.

01:26:32.000 This is like 1969 or 70.

01:26:35.000 And the whole premise is, and I recommend people go look at it.

01:26:38.000 You can, you know, the Forbidden Project, Colossus.

01:26:40.000 And the idea here is that the computer becomes self-aware, to your point, Tim.

01:26:44.000 And then it figures out that, oh, there's one on the other side of the world the Russians have. 0.97

01:26:48.000 And the two computers come together.

01:26:49.000 It's like, oh, We're just going to dominate the world because, you know, we're smarter than everybody else.

01:26:55.000 And it's a very interesting movie, a thought thing, because it doesn't actually go where you say, where you theorize.

01:27:01.000 It basically says, yeah, we're in charge, and we're going to dominate the human race.

01:27:05.000 So it's an interesting movie, and I won't give away the end because it's a good ending.

01:27:09.000 The issue with Limited AI is, and well, just any AI in general, including artificial general intelligence, is that we think it will do something that we understand from a human perspective.

01:27:21.000 We think it will destroy us.

01:27:23.000 We think it will improve our lives.

01:27:25.000 It will likely do something we just have no understanding of.

01:27:29.000 There was this great thread on X where someone said, what is a sign that someone is intelligent that doesn't immediately correlate?

01:27:38.000 Someone does something you don't quite understand.

01:27:39.000 Like, what is a sign that someone's smart?

01:27:41.000 And there are a lot of interesting answers.

01:27:42.000 One was body mass index correlates with intelligence.

01:27:47.000 The higher your body mass index, the lower your intelligence, on average.

01:27:50.000 Not ever, it's on absolute.

01:27:51.000 And then there's walking speed.

01:27:53.000 And I really liked one answer.

01:27:54.000 Someone said, if you ever notice someone doing things that seem to be random or nonsensical, but they're rather successful, it's because they're a lot smarter than you.

01:28:04.000 They recognize patterns you can't recognize and they take actions that you don't understand that ultimately result in a major benefit to themselves.

01:28:15.000 People who can't recognize the patterns in the same way or understand what's going on think it's dumb luck or something.

01:28:19.000 That's true.

01:28:21.000 So we could see a scenario where the AI, AGI, is doing the most inane nonsensical things and we're like it's calculating you know this weird mathematical equation that we don't quite understand why it's doing it now it's searching the planet for cobalt well I wonder why it wants cobalt I mean there's a lot of things you can do with cobalt and then all of these little intricate pieces you don't understand it's building a warp drive or something I've hypothesized a future where once we build this AI humanity as we know it will become some

01:28:55.000 I don't know how to describe it, but imagine it this way.

01:28:58.000 There's no jobs anymore.

01:28:59.000 There's robots and machines running fast food restaurants.

01:29:03.000 Humans get their work from an app.

01:29:06.000 There's a variety of work apps called, you know, Gigstopper or something.

01:29:10.000 And someone opens it up and they're like, I need some cash.

01:29:13.000 And then it's like, a gig in your area.

01:29:15.000 And they're like, ooh, I accept.

01:29:16.000 And then it just says, accept this package from this man and deliver it to this man.

01:29:21.000 It shows two pictures.

01:29:22.000 And you're like, okay.

01:29:23.000 And then you walk down the street and a guy hands you a package and you're like, what's in it?

01:29:26.000 And he goes, no idea.

01:29:26.000 And you go, thanks.

01:29:27.000 Then you walk down the street and hand it to another guy who was getting into a car and he goes, thanks.

01:29:30.000 And then it goes, bling, 50 bucks.

01:29:32.000 And you're like, I have no idea what I just did.

01:29:34.000 You have no idea what you contributed to.

01:29:36.000 You have no idea what's being built.

01:29:37.000 Then that guy looks at his app and it says, bring this package to this address.

01:29:41.000 And he does.

01:29:42.000 And then he hands the guy the box and says, it's a special delivery.

01:29:44.000 Then bling, 50 bucks in his app.

01:29:46.000 The guy who receives it has no idea what's going on.

01:29:48.000 He's like, the app just told me to stand here.

01:29:50.000 Now it says, open the box.

01:29:51.000 And he opens it and there's this weird jagged piece of metal that's like, looks like obsidian and there's like spikes coming out of it.

01:29:56.000 And he's like, I have no idea what this is.

01:29:58.000 And then it says, insert this into this.

01:30:00.000 And it shows a picture of the device.

01:30:02.000 He puts it in.

01:30:03.000 The things start spinning and glowing, and he's like, hmm.

01:30:05.000 Then it goes, bling, 50 bucks.

01:30:06.000 And then he goes home, and he has no idea what he just made.

01:30:09.000 No one, it is much more efficient for the AI to just, like, it's the McDonald's method, right?

01:30:16.000 Before McDonald's, a restaurant was one chef, you order a cheeseburger, he makes your cheeseburger, hands it to you.

01:30:20.000 The McDonald's brothers were like, no, no, no, let's do this.

01:30:23.000 We get 10 people, they each do one thing, and so it's a assembly line.

01:30:28.000 Humans will have no idea what the AI is building.

01:30:31.000 And they won't care because they're getting paid to do it.

01:30:33.000 The guy who owns the company will be like, I don't know.

01:30:35.000 I don't care either.

01:30:36.000 Money's going into my account and I'm rich.

01:30:38.000 And the AI is building something we have no idea.

01:30:40.000 So you don't think Elon Musk is going to be there to kind of figure out something's going on and try to stay with it?

01:30:44.000 They're not going to care.

01:30:45.000 They're not going to care.

01:30:47.000 There's already been AI that, when you have two AI systems working together, they created their own language to communicate that the programmers couldn't understand.

01:30:59.000 It's terrifying.

01:30:59.000 Yeah, so the idea that that wouldn't happen on a grander scale, I mean, I think that's, you know, that alone proves that it would.

01:31:06.000 I'm not doubting it.

01:31:06.000 I'm just saying I would hope we could kind of, at least you, that was observable.

01:31:10.000 You saw them create the language.

01:31:12.000 So that's like an artifact that you could track and see what else they do.

01:31:16.000 It's my point.

01:31:17.000 It's like, I'm not saying they won't do it.

01:31:18.000 I'm sure they will.

01:31:19.000 But the idea would be, can we track this and then get a picture of what it is?

01:31:23.000 We're not, I mean, as a race, we're not stupid, but we would at least be able to, I think, determine they're up to something.

01:31:29.000 Maybe we ought to pay attention.

01:31:30.000 No, the issue is we wouldn't care.

01:31:33.000 Look, you've got people that sell drugs, you've got people that don't care about the consequences of their actions, as long as the money goes in their account.

01:31:42.000 There will be people who are dreamers and big thinkers who want to build big machines, and they'll be doing their thing.

01:31:49.000 But, like, do any of us know what's going on at Uber and what Uber's plans are and do we care?

01:31:53.000 You need a car, you get an Uber, right?

01:31:56.000 For all you know, at the Uber Corporation, they have big plans for the next 10 years where cars will fly, they've talked about it or something like that.

01:32:02.000 Or cars that can go to outer space, who knows?

01:32:04.000 We don't know what they're doing, we don't care.

01:32:06.000 The AI program will be doing things and will be minding our own business, and in the background, something will be happening.

01:32:12.000 I'm not saying it's a bad thing.

01:32:13.000 I'm saying we won't understand or care.

01:32:15.000 Not everybody, but the vast majority of Americans became addicted to their cell phone without them realizing they were going to become addicted.

01:32:25.000 If you knew before you purchased your first smartphone that it had the type of mind control powers that it has, would people have said, yes, I'm going to buy this thing?

01:32:37.000 100% they would.

01:32:37.000 You think so?

01:32:38.000 No question.

01:32:39.000 I think before the smartphone was ubiquitous and in everyone's pocket, before you got your hands on the iPhone, the first one, I think there would have been a lot of people, if you said, look, this is going to take over your life and it's going to have a lot of negative consequences, I think people would have said no.

01:32:56.000 know what they were getting into. I'll give you an example.

01:33:00.000 Flying car. Let's say compact car, the size of a typical sedan, but a button can be pressed,

01:33:08.000 wings, let's say it's not even wings, it's quad rotor with small wings for stability, and it can

01:33:14.000 fly with a perfect safety rating, has a parachute, let's say crashing is one in a million.

01:33:21.000 However, in order to fly properly, it has to have 10 cameras surrounding at all times and

01:33:25.000 filming inside and outside.

01:33:26.000 And that data is being collected and shared at all times of everywhere you've gone and

01:33:31.000 everything you do, and people will gladly take a flying car.

01:33:35.000 It's gonna make your kids suicidal.

01:33:37.000 That'll change people.

01:33:38.000 Literally.

01:33:38.000 Honestly, if you say to people, look, this cell phone, if you get this and these things become ubiquitous, it's gonna make a generation of children suicidal.

01:33:48.000 That would make a difference.

01:33:49.000 Still disagree.

01:33:50.000 Still disagree because the response from the conservatives on this one, liberals don't care at all, they're like, give our kids this stuff, and the response from conservatives is, you know, it's fine, just be a better parent.

01:34:01.000 Yeah.

01:34:02.000 Which is like, it's hilarious because it is the only time that the left says, you know what's an important thing for society?

01:34:08.000 Relying on the family and seeing the family as an institution that has a duty.

01:34:13.000 With literally everything else, everything else that the family should be there to do, they go, Well, we can't count on families to do that.

01:34:18.000 We need very robust social safety nets that end up in massive government intrusion.

01:34:22.000 Don't get me wrong, I'm okay with some social safety nets, but they literally try to usurp the role of the family entirely, except for when it comes to things like children being on social media, or these smartphones increasing misery among young people, or pornographic content being shown to minors.

01:34:38.000 Then, all of a sudden, they really believe in the power of the family.

01:34:41.000 It's the only time.

01:34:43.000 It's the only time.

01:34:44.000 Well, one thing I want to add to the debate, because I am an artifact of the past, to your point, I came up at a time when telephones were all landlines.

01:34:55.000 And you had to basically plan where you're going to be, when you're going to be, and oh, by the way, if you want to do research, you've got to go to the library.

01:35:03.000 That's this side of the room.

01:35:04.000 That side of the room is cell phone people.

01:35:06.000 So yeah, so I came up and understood.

01:35:08.000 So to that point, it's like I actually had to use an electric typewriter.

01:35:13.000 You know, the touch type for my initial training as a special agent.

01:35:18.000 And so I'm telling you, to Tim's point, it's like people have gladly accepted unlimited access to data, communications.

01:35:26.000 I can call people on the other side of the planet.

01:35:28.000 This was unimaginable when I was a kid.

01:35:33.000 Unimaginable.

01:35:34.000 I grew up in the era where when the phone rang, me, my brother, my sister would run full speed and try to be the one to answer it.

01:35:41.000 Just because you wanted to answer it, I guess.

01:35:43.000 Now, that's gone.

01:35:45.000 Now if my phone rings, I'm angry.

01:35:47.000 Why?

01:35:47.000 Who is calling me?

01:35:47.000 Why?

01:35:48.000 What is going on?

01:35:48.000 Why why who is calling me why what is going on?

01:35:53.000 Mom, okay. I agree Fast this is funny

01:35:59.000 I was thinking about this the other day.

01:36:01.000 I really, the one thing I'm looking forward to with AI is I can't wait until they make a service that you can forward spam calls to.

01:36:08.000 And it's a very convincing AI that acts like an obtuse old person and gets the scammer caught in like a three-hour loop with this old person going, oh, was that my bank account number?

01:36:17.000 I can't remember it.

01:36:19.000 And just completely waste their time.

01:36:20.000 And ideally, they stop calling you.

01:36:23.000 Or you just clog all of them up.

01:36:24.000 I think that would be a wonderful application of the technology.

01:36:27.000 I mean, you can do that.

01:36:28.000 Do you think... I've done it.

01:36:29.000 Yeah, I bother him the hell out of him when I get time.

01:36:31.000 Oh no, I've absolutely bothered him, but you have to be careful because scammers, when you bother them, you have to use kind of a goofy voice because if they, they'll record you and then if they get you saying a word like yes or do that, then they can use that for certain voice recognition systems where that's used as security.

01:36:48.000 All right, everybody, we're gonna go to Super Chats!

01:36:50.000 If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, follow us, Rumble.com slash TimCastIRL, and on Axe at TimCast, those are gonna be important, and go to TimCast.com, click join us to become a member so you can watch the uncensored call-in show, which happens just after this at about 10 p.m.

01:37:07.000 over at TimCast.com, and if you're a member, sign up for our Discord server.

01:37:11.000 You can actually submit questions and call in to talk to us and our guests.

01:37:14.000 It's a lot of fun.

01:37:15.000 As a member, you're keeping the show on the air.

01:37:18.000 YouTube recently took down two of our biggest episodes ever.

01:37:22.000 I'm actually quite perturbed and offended, because our biggest episode was the Joe Rogan, Alex Jones, Michael Malice, Blaire White, Drew Hernandez, me, Luke Herkowski, Ian Crossland.

01:37:32.000 It was a massive, ridiculous cacophony of insanity, and it was a historical podcast moment for this ridiculous show that we did.

01:37:41.000 And YouTube deleted it and it's gone.

01:37:45.000 It's gone.

01:37:46.000 We have an archive of it probably somewhere, but it's offensive.

01:37:50.000 Now they basically told us that three years after the show aired, we decided you broke a rule so at any point we can delete any one of your videos from the past several years and then claim, oh, but you got a strike because your video was bad, which is ridiculous.

01:38:02.000 So we're currently talking with Top Men.

01:38:04.000 There's some good news in the works, so stay tuned for that.

01:38:07.000 But in the meantime, become a member at TimCast.com if you want to keep us in operation, because that's how we operate.

01:38:13.000 Members keep this show running.

01:38:15.000 Clint Sora is with the first Super Chat saying, howdy people!

01:38:18.000 Howdy Clint, you are always the first.

01:38:20.000 Somehow you managed to do it.

01:38:21.000 I don't know if Clint is sitting there just spamming refresh on the page until it pops up, but he gets it.

01:38:25.000 He uses AI.

01:38:26.000 He's got a bot to do that.

01:38:27.000 That's right.

01:38:28.000 He outsourced it.

01:38:29.000 TokenBlackGuy says, howdy people!

01:38:31.000 You were second, but I appreciate the howdy people.

01:38:35.000 Kale says, I'd love to hear your thoughts on if we need additional amendments to the Constitution.

01:38:40.000 Well, I will go first, and the answer is yes.

01:38:42.000 I believe we would be on the 27th amendment.

01:38:44.000 Is that the next?

01:38:45.000 We have 26 so far?

01:38:47.000 Let's just make sure we get it right.

01:38:48.000 I thought it was 28.

01:38:49.000 Like, it would be the 28th.

01:38:50.000 It would be the 28th one.

01:38:51.000 Maybe we have 27?

01:38:51.000 Yeah.

01:38:52.000 I'll double check, but yeah.

01:38:56.000 We have the real-time fact check coming in because we are smart.

01:38:58.000 We should learn to type faster.

01:39:00.000 This is the worst.

01:39:01.000 How many amendments are there?

01:39:03.000 Uh, 27.

01:39:03.000 Okay, so this will be the 28th amendment.

01:39:06.000 And the 28th amendment should be chickens being necessary to the security of a free state.

01:39:11.000 The right of the people to keep, bear, and breed chickens shall not be infringed.

01:39:14.000 Or like, livestock in general, you know?

01:39:16.000 Well, that's the interpretation.

01:39:17.000 See, the important thing to understand is that... Tom Smassey's actually working on an amendment like that.

01:39:22.000 Specifically about the right of the people to grow their own food and the government not being able to infringe on that right.

01:39:27.000 So, the Third Amendment isn't just, and this is funny because these Twitterati midwits are like, who was it? 0.96

01:39:34.000 Someone did a comedy bit where they were like, the Third Amendment, that's dumb! 0.90

01:39:37.000 Who's worried about the military occupying their homes? 0.85

01:39:40.000 I think it was Daniel Tosh.

01:39:41.000 I think it was years and years ago.

01:39:42.000 Someone was talking about the second... No, no, this is recent.

01:39:44.000 But here's what I want to say.

01:39:46.000 The first thing I want to say is the reason you're not worried about it is because it's not allowed so it doesn't happen.

01:39:51.000 If it was happening, you might be upset.

01:39:52.000 The second thing is the amendment was actually interpreted to say the government can't use your property.

01:39:58.000 Right.

01:39:58.000 That's it.

01:39:58.000 It's not about whether they sleep in your house.

01:40:00.000 It's the government can't use your property.

01:40:01.000 They just can't take it.

01:40:03.000 So my 20th amendment would actually be, although silly, And about chickens would of course be interpreted to say

01:40:10.000 the right of the people to grow their own food and and subsist off of what they produce of their own land.

01:40:15.000 And yeah, I mean, that's yeah, I would want an amendment that would

01:40:20.000 pull back the necessary and proper clause a little bit to give some some guiding context on the necessary and proper

01:40:27.000 clause and to absolutely gut the commerce clause that has been absolutely abused

01:40:34.000 to the point where it essentially empowers the federal government to do anything that it wants.

01:40:40.000 So I would I would I would just actually I just rip the whole Commerce Clause out and kind of see what happens without it because I don't think that I don't think that The government would fall apart the federal government would fall apart without it those being the most obvious

01:40:58.000 My big problem, like, there's some pretty clear language in the whole Bill of Rights and the federal government is still, you know, consistently hiring armies of lawyers that learn about the Constitution specifically so that way they can get around the limitations put on the federal government by the Constitution.

01:41:21.000 Like, literally, lobbyists exist that The whole point is to figure out ways around the limitations on the government.

01:41:31.000 I think that there should be some kind of legislation about that, too.

01:41:35.000 I would probably come up with an amendment that would get rid of public sector unions. 0.82

01:41:40.000 I mean, I've got a lot of ideas, man.

01:41:42.000 A lot of ideas.

01:41:43.000 I would do, I think probably two.

01:41:45.000 One that says that the individual cannot be taxed by the federal government, that all taxation should originate with the states at the local level so that the apportionment of those taxes benefits citizens in that state first before it goes to the federal level.

01:41:57.000 Yeah, that's interesting.

01:41:58.000 Because the states, I think, need to be the bulwark between the individual and the federal government.

01:42:02.000 The federal government will just take whatever it wants.

01:42:04.000 And I think it's a danger.

01:42:05.000 The federal government shouldn't give orders to the states to work the other way around.

01:42:08.000 Right.

01:42:09.000 And then the second thing I would do is another amendment that benefits that is the idea that the federal government cannot come in to the state and local level to create I don't know.

01:42:19.000 Homeless shelters.

01:42:21.000 Any social services program cannot be instituted by the federal government.

01:42:25.000 It has to be done by the state or local jurisdiction.

01:42:28.000 It gives far too much power and control of far too many resources which are not accountable to the federal bureaucracy without regard to outcome.

01:42:35.000 Yeah, so those are the two.

01:42:38.000 This is also me just spitballing, but I think it would be really interesting to get something in there to do with the process, like when it comes to what's voted on, there actually has to be a reasonable amount of time for it to be read.

01:42:52.000 You can't shove a bunch of nonsense into a bill and then name it something completely different, that type of thing.

01:43:00.000 All right, let's read more.

01:43:00.000 We've got David Violet says, Phil has a solo project called Some That Remain.

01:43:09.000 Victor Gordon says, Seamus too.

01:43:11.000 Tim, send him back with the other criminals.

01:43:13.000 Well, the interesting thing that happened is when Seamus got here, I walked into the house and I was immediately confused because there were two Seamus's and I couldn't figure out which was which.

01:43:23.000 Yeah, you're a bad friend for naming your cat that.

01:43:26.000 The story is, Seamus was with us, and we were driving in the car.

01:43:30.000 We had caught this cat, and I forgot what we were calling him.

01:43:32.000 We had a name for him at first.

01:43:34.000 It was like Herman or something.

01:43:36.000 I don't remember.

01:43:37.000 And then I joked, and we were trying to come up with a name, and I was like, we should name him Seamus.

01:43:41.000 And then Seamus, of course, says, ah, you're a bad friend.

01:43:43.000 Allison laughed, ran with it. 0.88

01:43:45.000 And then Allison says two months, but I think it was literally like two weeks later.

01:43:48.000 I was like, we really shouldn't call the cat Seamus.

01:43:51.000 It's kind of weird.

01:43:51.000 She's like, no, it's too late.

01:43:52.000 He already knows his name.

01:43:54.000 Evil prevails when good men fail to act.

01:43:56.000 And then the funny thing that happened the other day was, you know, Seamus is in the guest room.

01:44:00.000 Yeah, I'm trying to take a nap and I hear, Seamus, where are you?

01:44:04.000 I'm like, what's happening right now?

01:44:06.000 Sheamus!

01:44:06.000 I was like, I'm here, but I don't want to tell you that!

01:44:08.000 Alison's like, tapping, she's tapping the carton of cream, and then Sheamus is like, hello?

01:44:13.000 I was so pissed because I thought that cream was for me.

01:44:15.000 You said it, did you get anything?

01:44:17.000 Is it okay?

01:44:19.000 Yeah, Alison didn't realize that human Sheamus was there, so. 0.83

01:44:22.000 I just like that there's a more favored Sheamus in the mix now, you know? 0.98

01:44:26.000 Well, you know, Sheamus abandoned us, so we were just like, well, there's only one Sheamus left.

01:44:29.000 That's true, you should have him on the show, honestly.

01:44:32.000 Yeah, we're thinking of bringing him up here and having him walk around.

01:44:34.000 You can tell me, like, how Seamus is going to be on tonight.

01:44:36.000 It's going to be a big night.

01:44:37.000 And then we'll just put a potato in the shot like we did last time.

01:44:39.000 So, Steven Sanders says, the city of Dillon, Florida recently passed an ordinance preventing the public from filming or audio recording in a public lobby, direct violation of the First Amendment.

01:44:48.000 Using video of myself having my cameras damaged in the police lobby as a result for this.

01:44:52.000 Please share.

01:44:53.000 Wow.

01:44:54.000 Yeah, that is unconstitutional.

01:44:57.000 Not allowed.

01:44:59.000 Trader Potato says, yo, Phil, cool to see you.

01:45:02.000 You'll be opening for Megadeth, the greatest band of all time.

01:45:05.000 We'll be driving up to Concord to see you guys play.

01:45:09.000 Add the weak-willed to the set list for me and get Mustaine and IRL.

01:45:14.000 He'd be a great guest.

01:45:15.000 Dave would be a great guest, but I will not be breaking green room etiquette trying to get Dave Mustaine to come up to IRL.

01:45:23.000 When's that show?

01:45:26.000 It was announced today.

01:45:27.000 The tour starts in August, the beginning of August.

01:45:31.000 It's August and September, 33 dates.

01:45:33.000 It's Megadeth, Mudvayne, and all the remains.

01:45:36.000 Wow!

01:45:37.000 You're going to be in West Virginia and Richmond too, right?

01:45:40.000 For two months, yeah.

01:45:41.000 It's going to be sick, so if you guys want to come out, just let me know.

01:45:44.000 Amazing.

01:45:44.000 We'll make it happen.

01:45:46.000 Yeah.

01:45:47.000 You have weekend dates I'm imagining, obviously, right?

01:45:48.000 Yeah, we'll make it happen.

01:45:50.000 That sounds awesome.

01:45:51.000 Let's go.

01:45:52.000 All right.

01:45:53.000 Did we have a... We have another one?

01:45:56.000 What is that?

01:45:57.000 Stadia Vlog says, shout out to Phil for the awesome tour that all that remains is joining Megadeth, buying my tickets when they go on sale tomorrow.

01:46:03.000 Wow, it's gonna be amazing.

01:46:04.000 Appreciate it, guys.

01:46:05.000 Cheers.

01:46:06.000 TheTextVet says, military waste is insane because of bids.

01:46:10.000 Vehicle parts alone are marked up sometimes thousandfold.

01:46:13.000 The price of a shock you get at a parts store for like a couple hundred bucks will cost multiple thousands.

01:46:18.000 There was a video of someone in Congress, who was it?

01:46:20.000 Was it Massey or something?

01:46:21.000 Holding up like a bag of screws and he was like, we spent $20,000 on this.

01:46:25.000 Because the government has unlimited money.

01:46:33.000 So there's something that I want to remind people about this.

01:46:35.000 As much as it is ridiculous to pay $16,000 for toilet seats and $20,000 for a bag of screws and stuff, the main thing driving our debt and deficit is unfunded liabilities.

01:46:47.000 It's Medicare and Medicaid.

01:46:48.000 So it's bad that the government wastes money and the government Anytime there are budgets that they have to worry about year over year, they're going to be trying to make sure they spend all the money in their budgets and they're going to waste money.

01:47:00.000 That's just going to happen.

01:47:01.000 But the real thing that's driving our problems that are actually existential to the United States, that are existential to our currency and to our entire way of life, are the unfunded liabilities.

01:47:15.000 It's the Medicare, Medicaid.

01:47:17.000 People have to be aware of that.

01:47:18.000 You're absolutely correct, and this is one thing that really frustrates me, is oftentimes what lefties will do, and what even more moderate liberals will do, is they'll say, well, the Republicans are opposed to X spending bill, but they always have money for the military.

01:47:32.000 Okay, the reality is like, we spend more on healthcare than we spend on the military.

01:47:35.000 We spend a lot on the military, the military needs to be made more efficient.

01:47:38.000 I think we shouldn't be allowing them to fail these audits as often as they do.

01:47:41.000 Don't get me wrong, we're on the same page there.

01:47:43.000 there but the military is not the most expensive thing in our budget.

01:47:46.000 The federal government is charged with defending the country.

01:47:48.000 That is part of the Constitution.

01:47:50.000 The military, whether we should have a standing army or not, and maybe you can argue that,

01:47:54.000 the federal government does have the responsibility to defend the United States.

01:47:59.000 That does take, at the very least, the Navy probably takes some kind of security force, 0.83

01:48:05.000 right?

01:48:06.000 Whereas there is no charge in the Constitution or any federal documents that say that the

01:48:10.000 The federal government is responsible for making sure that people get doctors.

01:48:13.000 Amen.

01:48:14.000 So people in chat are correcting us.

01:48:16.000 It was $90,000 for bushings.

01:48:18.000 Yeah.

01:48:18.000 Okay.

01:48:19.000 Fair enough.

01:48:19.000 And they were asking the Air Force Secretary about it.

01:48:21.000 Wow.

01:48:21.000 So we have Jacob Hawley says, just got fired from my job in Fredonia, Wisconsin, because our job is deciding to replace us with newcomers.

01:48:29.000 I am pissed.

01:48:30.000 It's happening at the local level too.

01:48:31.000 No more.

01:48:32.000 I'm done.

01:48:32.000 It's got to stop.

01:48:33.000 Tell us what his job was.

01:48:35.000 I want to know specifically what we're inviting our newcomers to come do in the country.

01:48:41.000 Take jobs.

01:48:41.000 That's what we're doing.

01:48:42.000 Yeah.

01:48:43.000 I mean, this is one of the things that New York was pushing when New York was dealing with all of the migrants that had arrived there.

01:48:51.000 Eric Adams and Kathy Hochul would be like, you know, we need money from the federal government, we need this, that, and the other.

01:48:55.000 Also, we need you to authorize everyone to work immediately.

01:48:58.000 Do it now.

01:48:58.000 I mean, the way that this is being handled by Democrats is, again, to the detriment of the workers in their own states.

01:49:07.000 How could Kathy Hochul be reelected after asking for this?

01:49:11.000 I would hope in a sane world she wouldn't.

01:49:12.000 Have you ever been to New Zealand?

01:49:14.000 No, I haven't.

01:49:14.000 So New Zealand has a very rigorous immigration system.

01:49:19.000 And I've been there.

01:49:20.000 I've actually been deployed there as a member of the military.

01:49:23.000 And if I wanted to become a New Zealander, which they're a great country.

01:49:27.000 I love the place.

01:49:28.000 Spent a lot of time in Auckland.

01:49:29.000 You have to have three things to become a citizen of New Zealand.

01:49:32.000 First off, you have to have a skill that they find that they need that you would bring to the table.

01:49:37.000 That is to say, you know, a broadcaster.

01:49:40.000 Yeah, yeah, we want broadcasters.

01:49:43.000 Nurses, whatever.

01:49:44.000 Absolutely.

01:49:45.000 The second thing you have to have then is some level of income already available to you.

01:49:51.000 You have to have a certain amount of money that you bring with you because they don't want you living off The public dole, yeah.

01:49:59.000 So the first one, the second one, and the third one has to do with the fact that if you come, you have to have some level of, oh, dare I say, not be a criminal?

01:50:08.000 What a crazy thought!

01:50:09.000 Well, we learned from the Sheetz lawsuit that that's a racist requirement.

01:50:12.000 I know!

01:50:13.000 I know!

01:50:13.000 New Zealand just announced that they're going to reduce the number of visas they give for temporary workers, right?

01:50:20.000 And they were saying, you know, even if we issue, let's say 179,000, I can't remember, I think it's about that.

01:50:25.000 We're a very small country.

01:50:27.000 That's a huge portion of our population.

01:50:29.000 We can absorb it economically.

01:50:30.000 We don't have houses available to us.

01:50:32.000 You're going to make it worse for the people who are already here.

01:50:34.000 There actually is.

01:50:35.000 There's many ways to get citizenship with New Zealand.

01:50:39.000 And you actually don't need a skill.

01:50:40.000 Oh, I didn't know that.

01:50:41.000 I thought you did.

01:50:41.000 Three million dollars.

01:50:42.000 Oh, three million dollars.

01:50:45.000 You have enough money.

01:50:46.000 You can offset it.

01:50:47.000 Do you have to purchase this?

01:50:48.000 Do you have to give it to them?

01:50:49.000 Or do you just have to have it?

01:50:50.000 Oh, it gets better.

01:50:52.000 Most countries have this called investment citizenship.

01:50:54.000 So if you invest five million dollars into the New Zealand economy, they will give you citizenship.

01:50:59.000 I'm sorry, five million New Zealand dollars, which is 2.9 million US.

01:51:02.000 So this means I believe this is correct.

01:51:05.000 I know this is true for some countries.

01:51:06.000 Some countries it's as low as $500,000.

01:51:09.000 You literally put that money in their bank.

01:51:10.000 Yeah.

01:51:11.000 And keep it in their banks.

01:51:12.000 You keep that account operating.

01:51:14.000 They give you a passport and say, welcome to our country.

01:51:16.000 Thank you for your money.

01:51:17.000 That's a good thing.

01:51:18.000 Simple enough.

01:51:19.000 Yeah.

01:51:19.000 I think like St.

01:51:20.000 Kitts and Nevis is pretty cheap.

01:51:22.000 I don't know what it is today, but I know that like a decade ago, it was like 50 grand.

01:51:26.000 And a St.

01:51:26.000 Kitts passport is basically just says, I'm a rich person who bought citizenship to avoid paying taxes.

01:51:30.000 So most countries will be like, come on in.

01:51:32.000 There were several Silicon Valley tycoons who bought New Zealand citizenship during COVID.

01:51:37.000 Yeah.

01:51:38.000 I mean, look, if you're a billionaire, why wouldn't you have 50 passports?

01:51:42.000 You just call up New Zealand and be like, yeah, I got, you know, a hundred billion dollars.

01:51:45.000 I'm going to put, you know, 50 million in New Zealand.

01:51:48.000 Can I have a passport?

01:51:48.000 They'll be like, sure.

01:51:50.000 There you go.

01:51:51.000 Then you can build your emergency bunker on the South Island.

01:51:54.000 It's a great... Oh, South Island is beautiful.

01:51:56.000 You know, you can go to the beach in the morning and be skiing later in the day in the Canterbury Mountains.

01:52:03.000 Wow.

01:52:04.000 Oh, it's beautiful.

01:52:05.000 Bear in mind, I assume the government of New Zealand is similar to the government of Australia.

01:52:11.000 And the government of Australia right now is looking to try and put Elon Musk in jail over Twitter. 0.95

01:52:15.000 Well, there are crazy people over there. 0.98

01:52:17.000 There are definitely crazy people over there. 1.00

01:52:19.000 The governments are fairly crazy. 0.97

01:52:20.000 I actually go on Channel 9.

01:52:22.000 I'm actually a contributor to the Channel 9 Today Show in Australia.

01:52:26.000 So, they're pretty conservative.

01:52:27.000 So, what time of year?

01:52:31.000 What time of year in New Zealand?

01:52:32.000 I pulled up the map and I can see Mount Cook.

01:52:35.000 What time of year do you have warm beach access and then cold enough elevation?

01:52:38.000 Just summer.

01:52:39.000 In the summer?

01:52:40.000 During their summer, because yeah.

01:52:41.000 So it's our winter.

01:52:42.000 Yeah, it's our winter, their summer.

01:52:43.000 In their summer, you can ski in their summer.

01:52:46.000 Yeah.

01:52:48.000 In the tall mountains.

01:52:49.000 Really?

01:52:49.000 Yeah.

01:52:50.000 Wow.

01:52:51.000 I learned this only recently, that Las Vegas, 50 minute drive from Las Vegas, from the Strip, there's a mountain.

01:52:57.000 And you can be hanging out in your shorts and a t-shirt in Vegas, get in your car and drive to the mountain, and it's snow and cold and you're skiing.

01:53:03.000 Really?

01:53:03.000 I didn't know that.

01:53:05.000 What is it, Lee Canyon, I think, or something like that?

01:53:07.000 It's not the Hunter Biden kind of snow, is it?

01:53:08.000 Just asking.

01:53:09.000 No, actually, that is in Vegas, too.

01:53:11.000 That is Vegas, too.

01:53:12.000 That's just lower elevation.

01:53:15.000 Higher elevation is the other snow.

01:53:17.000 I mean, the same thing if you go to Hawaii in the wintertime, if you're on the big island, the peak, if you go up to Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, like the

01:53:26.000 peaks will have snow. The first time that I went to the big island, we tried to go to the peak and we can only go to

01:53:31.000 the way station. They're like, yeah, no one's going up top.

01:53:33.000 There's a snowstorm, y'all die. So all right, we'll grab some more super chats.

01:53:39.000 Let's go.

01:53:40.000 Steven Sanders says, Tim, how does anyone hold government accountable for suing a city or police for unrest?

01:53:46.000 Lawyers are impossible to find in Florida.

01:53:48.000 I was arrested for not wearing a mask on federal property in December of 2022.

01:53:52.000 Can't beg an attorney to sue them fast enough advice.

01:53:55.000 I don't know.

01:53:56.000 Well, I don't know.

01:53:56.000 I've refused to wear a mask.

01:53:57.000 I just got written up for and suspended from the base for doing that, so I don't know.

01:54:01.000 We were in West Virginia and nobody wore masks.

01:54:04.000 Yeah.

01:54:05.000 So we didn't really think anything of it.

01:54:07.000 When we drove into D.C., though, it was crazy.

01:54:10.000 In Frederick, Maryland, it was hilarious because the story I had was Allison and I went to

01:54:14.000 a sushi place.

01:54:15.000 We walked in.

01:54:17.000 The seat is 10 feet in front of us.

01:54:20.000 And we were like, yeah, two.

01:54:21.000 And they're like, you have to put a mask on.

01:54:22.000 I look around.

01:54:23.000 I'm like, nobody's wearing any masks.

01:54:25.000 And like, well, they're eating.

01:54:26.000 And I was like, I'll just sit down.

01:54:28.000 And they were like, but you have to put a mask on.

01:54:29.000 I'm like, the chair is there.

01:54:30.000 Can I sit down?

01:54:31.000 And they're like, no.

01:54:32.000 And then all the employees were like, wear the mask.

01:54:34.000 And I was like, this is weird.

01:54:36.000 It was obsessive.

01:54:38.000 They wanted me to put a mask on, sit down, take it off.

01:54:41.000 It would have been two seconds and then I would throw it in the garbage.

01:54:43.000 I'm like, well, I don't understand.

01:54:45.000 That makes no sense.

01:54:46.000 It was creepy.

01:54:46.000 It was like a cult.

01:54:47.000 No, it's like being on an airplane.

01:54:48.000 You really think that wearing a mask is going to stop whatever contaminants you have in your nose going all over the airplane?

01:54:53.000 Oh, the funny thing was we had these space helmets.

01:54:56.000 This guy created a company where they... Oh, that's right!

01:54:58.000 I remember those.

01:54:59.000 He made these glass dome helmets with a HEPA filter in it.

01:55:03.000 And it was like, then when you're on a plane, you're breathing fresh air.

01:55:07.000 The funny thing is the planes didn't allow it.

01:55:09.000 The regulation wasn't a law.

01:55:11.000 The order was you had to wear a cloth face mask, no gaiters.

01:55:14.000 So someone, apparently people had showed up to the airplanes with these $200 plastic dome helmets and they were like, so you have to wear a mask.

01:55:21.000 And they're like, but I am.

01:55:22.000 And they're like, no, put a mask on.

01:55:24.000 It's like, but I'm wearing a space helmet.

01:55:26.000 They're like, we don't care.

01:55:27.000 Yeah.

01:55:28.000 I'm wearing my own personal air filter.

01:55:30.000 And they're like, that's not as good as this mask that we pulled out of your pocket.

01:55:34.000 All right, let's go.

01:55:34.000 Beavis McLean says, Tim, you gave me the inspiration for this addition to the Culture War.

01:55:39.000 Listen to the Camo Comedy Podcast, 2Ms in Camo, available now on all platforms.

01:55:45.000 Hilarious stories from military service, such as two GIs unwittingly picking a bar fight with an Olympic judo champion team.

01:55:54.000 That sounds like a good one.

01:55:56.000 The premise itself was funny enough.

01:55:59.000 Sounds good.

01:56:00.000 What is that?

01:56:00.000 Camo Comedy, C-A-M-M-O, Comedy Podcast.

01:56:03.000 Check that one out.

01:56:05.000 Here we go.

01:56:06.000 Eric S. says, I think President Trump is playing it safe by complying with the legal system, which can attract voters who value his adherence to the law.

01:56:13.000 Okay.

01:56:14.000 Let's just pause real quick.

01:56:15.000 This is not in the legal system.

01:56:17.000 This is called extra legal and it's not law.

01:56:21.000 If there was a statute on the books that said, if you do this thing, you've committed a crime, that would be Trump adhering to the law.

01:56:30.000 No, it's not actually illegal anywhere to ask someone not to publish a story about you or defame you.

01:56:38.000 In fact, it's typically, it's very common among every political campaign ever to try and control information.

01:56:44.000 It's called public relations and marketing.

01:56:45.000 Yep.

01:56:46.000 They're arguing what Trump did was illegal because he was influencing the election by doing marketing for his campaign.

01:56:54.000 And by the way, like, after years of looking into every aspect of this person's life with one of the most sophisticated intelligence apparatuses that has ever existed in all of human history, this is the kind of stuff they're trying to pick at him for.

01:57:08.000 Yep.

01:57:09.000 Yep.

01:57:10.000 Gettin' It says, you guys are beautiful, just like Lizzo.

01:57:13.000 That is so sweet.

01:57:14.000 There's a funny bit from Casey Shornema and she's like, guys don't know when to end a sentence.

01:57:19.000 They'll say things like, you are the most beautiful woman in the world to me.

01:57:23.000 I had a friend, I think she married him in the end, but her boyfriend said, you know, I just love your eyes.

01:57:30.000 I love your beady little eyes.

01:57:32.000 Your beady little eyes.

01:57:33.000 That's great.

01:57:33.000 I didn't really think about what it meant.

01:57:34.000 You have beady little eyes.

01:57:36.000 That's hilarious.

01:57:37.000 That's great.

01:57:38.000 That was, Phil tweeted that.

01:57:40.000 Yeah.

01:57:41.000 Saying, you are beautiful just like Lizzo would be interpreted as an insult.

01:57:44.000 And I was like, it's how you turn a compliment into one of the most offensive insults is, you're so beautiful, just like Lizzo.

01:57:52.000 And that's the... Let's see how body positive they are.

01:57:55.000 All hell will break loose.

01:57:57.000 What was the bit people were doing for a while where they would just comment on liberal women's pictures and go, you are such a beautiful trans woman.

01:58:03.000 Yeah.

01:58:03.000 That's like, if the woman gets mad, that's transphobic.

01:58:06.000 Exactly.

01:58:07.000 You got it both ways, so to speak.

01:58:09.000 Durain Gaming says, Tim, you're wrong about the hacking terms.

01:58:11.000 It's not white, black, and gray.

01:58:13.000 It's blue, red, and purple.

01:58:14.000 Those terms are racist now.

01:58:16.000 I kid, but that was actual training I had to take as a DoD contractor.

01:58:20.000 I don't know if they did, but they tried getting rid of master and slave from coding.

01:58:28.000 So those were just terms.

01:58:30.000 Real estate agents got rid of master bedroom.

01:58:33.000 They say owner's room or like main suite.

01:58:35.000 Oh, that's better.

01:58:36.000 Owner's room.

01:58:39.000 It's like slavery.

01:58:40.000 It's rough.

01:58:41.000 I think we should just designate rooms in the new studio just like as offensively as possible.

01:58:46.000 That'd be a good idea.

01:58:47.000 Like we'll call the green room the maid's quarters or, you know, we'll call the downstairs the master's control room.

01:58:55.000 Just like, yeah, needlessly gender every single word.

01:58:58.000 Yeah.

01:58:59.000 Or every single position.

01:59:00.000 The no-women-allowed studio room. 1.00

01:59:02.000 Like, podcast man instead of podcaster.

01:59:04.000 I think we should.

01:59:07.000 He-man, woman-haters club.

01:59:08.000 Yeah, I love that.

01:59:09.000 I find this to be one of my favorite things when you're writing, and like, there is a technical use of the term representative to talk about someone from Congress, but I find myself intentionally being like, Congress man, Congress woman.

01:59:21.000 Like, they also will try and Make it like performer instead of actor or actress.

01:59:27.000 All the gendered language all the time. 1.00

01:59:29.000 Save it.

01:59:29.000 My favorite PC term is I'm Bugs Person.

01:59:32.000 What?

01:59:33.000 I'm Bugs Person?

01:59:34.000 Oh no!

01:59:36.000 I was reading an article and they said I'm Bugs Person and I was like, oh that is awesome.

01:59:39.000 There was one I heard years ago, Christina Hoff Summers talked about this, but she said that literally we're refusing to say seminar and we're saying aviolar.

01:59:48.000 What?

01:59:50.000 I get it.

01:59:55.000 I love, uh, there was like the post about, um, some feminists was like, his story, this is his story.

02:00:02.000 And then they went off on this tirade and then some, a linguist actually corrected them and was like, you're way off.

02:00:07.000 This is completely wrong.

02:00:08.000 a men and a women. Remember that? Oh yeah. Right before COVID started. There was uh people saying

02:00:14.000 that uh feminists would say that wo means belong to. So wo men was literally saying that women

02:00:20.000 belong to men. And then someone had to break down that actually they come from two different

02:00:25.000 language roots. I love I love how like all the the the attempts at you know making the gender 0.90

02:00:35.000 equalization or whatever that the fountains and I love how they're all really stupid. 1.00

02:00:40.000 Yeah, they're dumb. 1.00

02:00:41.000 Yeah, they're dumb. 1.00
