Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Secret Service STOOD DOWN During Trump Assassination Attempt Says Report w-CJ Pearson | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 I can't say I'm surprised by any of this.

00:00:19.000 Kind of, but not really.

00:00:20.000 The Senate report has come out and it shows that the Secret Service had credible intelligence of the threat against Trump.

00:00:26.000 They witnessed police running towards the would-be assassin in Butler with their guns drawn.

00:00:33.000 And somehow, in every single instance, the Secret Service stood down.

00:00:39.000 They had credible intelligence.

00:00:40.000 They didn't really raise the threat level.

00:00:42.000 They saw a guy walking around with a rangefinder.

00:00:45.000 No increase in threat level.

00:00:47.000 But I think one of the most damning things is that despite knowing that law enforcement were running down a guy armed with a rifle while people were screaming, they still stood down.

00:00:58.000 None of it makes sense.

00:01:00.000 We're going to go through all of this.

00:01:01.000 It is an absolutely insane story.

00:01:03.000 We've got another guy who was just arrested threatening to take Trump's life.

00:01:06.000 The Iran story.

00:01:07.000 The background details on this is all absolutely insane.

00:01:10.000 A Secret Service agent got drunk and assaulted a Kamala staffer.

00:01:16.000 Like, I don't know what is going on.

00:01:18.000 But we're gonna have to break this down.

00:01:19.000 And then there's this viral story about how Diddy was buying lube in bulk.

00:01:24.000 I'm sorry, he's buying baby oil in bulk.

00:01:26.000 And his lawyer's like, don't make fun of him!

00:01:28.000 He was going to Costco!

00:01:30.000 That's why he was doing it.

00:01:31.000 And then Mark Zuckerberg says he's a libertarian, hires a Republican strategy firm to rehabilitate his image.

00:01:37.000 Sure.

00:01:38.000 And then I guess for everybody else who lives in the real world, Hooters may be closing down, so start crying now because your wings and your beers and your boobs, they're going to be going away and you're not going to be able to go hang out there if things carry on the way they are.

00:01:50.000 So when they say there's no recession or no threat of recession, I don't know about that.

00:03:01.000 What's up, guys?

00:03:02.000 Thanks for having me, Tim.

00:03:03.000 Who are you?

00:03:04.000 What do you do?

00:03:04.000 Yeah, my name's CJ.

00:03:05.000 I was formerly with PragerU.

00:03:07.000 I currently serve as the co-chairman of the Republican National Committee Youth Advisory Council, and so I've had the opportunity to work with the president and the campaign on how we get young people to turn out and vote in November, and it's been going incredibly well.

00:03:20.000 I think there are a lot of young people, especially among Generation Z, who are tired of the woke nonsense and frankly can't afford to support Kamala Harris again.

00:03:27.000 We can't afford groceries, can't afford rent, can't afford to own a home in Kamala.

00:03:31.000 Hooters! 0.96

00:03:32.000 Yeah.

00:03:32.000 Hooters is going out of business.

00:03:34.000 If that's a barometer of where America's going, I think it hasn't been any clearer that we're in decline.

00:03:38.000 They're saying they may be in a downturn where they have to start shuttering locations.

00:03:42.000 And I think that's going to wake a lot of people up.

00:03:45.000 I think it will.

00:03:46.000 I think it will.

00:03:46.000 Ian's hanging out in a blue jacket.

00:03:47.000 Yeah, they had great wings.

00:03:49.000 Hi.

00:03:49.000 Oh, thank you.

00:03:49.000 We both wore blue.

00:03:50.000 Everyone says they had great wings.

00:03:51.000 I don't buy it.

00:03:52.000 I never liked them.

00:03:53.000 It was the sauce.

00:03:54.000 I remember Hooters buffalo sauce being really good in like 2004.

00:03:58.000 I'm pretty sure the Hooters has good wings was just a way for guys to try and justify going there.

00:04:03.000 That's what I thought!

00:04:04.000 It was the wings, Hannah.

00:04:05.000 They would, like, say it every time.

00:04:06.000 We'd be like, oh yeah, Hooters.

00:04:07.000 I was like, do you actually like the food there?

00:04:09.000 Like, no judgment if you go.

00:04:09.000 And they'd be like, no, no, the food is really good.

00:04:11.000 Sexy, delicious wings. 0.74

00:04:12.000 I loved sitting there and just eating those wings.

00:04:15.000 Well, Ian, if Kamala wins, we will have no more hooters.

00:04:19.000 That's disturbing.

00:04:20.000 Absolutely disturbing.

00:04:21.000 Hey, everyone, Ian Crosland back in the house.

00:04:23.000 Definitely get the Graphene Dream from casprew.com.

00:04:26.000 It's delicious coffee.

00:04:26.000 I'm actually having casprew coffee as we speak.

00:04:28.000 And I've been streaming like a maniac gaming.

00:04:31.000 I mean, I have found my niche with gaming.

00:04:32.000 I've been a gamer since I was three years old, playing the Atari in 1982.

00:04:36.000 So I am going 6, 8, 10 hours a day.

00:04:38.000 Follow me on YouTube, but particularly follow me on Twitch.

00:04:42.000 I'm building my Twitch account up, heading towards partnership on Twitch.

00:04:46.000 I multi-stream on YouTube, Twitch, and X, so follow all my Ian Crosland accounts on all those networks, and we'll go stream.

00:04:52.000 We'll stream really hard.

00:04:53.000 I gotta work.

00:04:54.000 We gotta get this Magic the Gathering channel going.

00:04:56.000 I just got the new World of Warcraft, the newest one, the Dragonflight.

00:04:59.000 I named my character Graphene.

00:05:01.000 It's available.

00:05:02.000 So I'm playing as this dragon man called Graphene.

00:05:04.000 Follow me.

00:05:05.000 Is a dream come true?

00:05:05.000 I need y'all to explain magic to me.

00:05:07.000 I've been so lost with just listening.

00:05:09.000 We will.

00:05:10.000 No one cares.

00:05:10.000 And so we'll save the boring, esoteric gaming stuff here.

00:05:14.000 Yes, we're talking about doing a Magic the Gathering show, so let's get to it.

00:05:17.000 I'm hanging out.

00:05:18.000 I can't tell you about magic, but it is definitely something people feel passionately about.

00:05:22.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.

00:05:23.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.

00:05:24.000 I'm also on the show.

00:05:26.000 Thanks for everything you guys do.

00:05:27.000 Let's get started.

00:05:28.000 All right, here's the story from the New York Post.

00:05:33.000 And this is just one story in a plethora of stories where we keep learning that the Secret Service either did not do their job for some ridiculous reasons, like why weren't they doing drone detection?

00:05:50.000 Well, someone forgot to bring a cable, and so they were calling tech support, but tech support wouldn't answer.

00:05:54.000 So they just said, you know what?

00:05:56.000 We don't need to stop the guy who's flying a drone or doing whatever it is he's doing.

00:06:00.000 Then we got this other crazy report.

00:06:01.000 Take a look at this one.

00:06:03.000 Secret Service was informed of Crook's 27 minutes before shots were fired, never told Trump to get off the stage.

00:06:08.000 Quote, shortly before shots were fired, Secret Service counter-snipers saw local law enforcement running towards the AGR building with their guns drawn, but he did not alert former President Trump's protective detail to remove him from the stage.

00:06:20.000 I'm sorry, I'm gonna go there.

00:06:21.000 A lot of people are too scared to go here.

00:06:23.000 You get these prominent conservatives and they're gonna be like, well, I don't wanna say that, I'm not going that far.

00:06:28.000 The reporting the other day was from Time Magazine, Iran, and the New York Times.

00:06:33.000 Here you go, New York Times.

00:06:34.000 U.S.

00:06:34.000 detected potential Iranian plot to kill Trump separate from Saturday's shooting.

00:06:38.000 This is July 16th.

00:06:40.000 The reporting has later come out, now Time is saying, that the day before the shooting, they arrested this guy for organizing a hit on Donald Trump.

00:06:48.000 Instructed Secret Service to increase their security.

00:06:51.000 The very next day, Secret Service, in every facet, stands down at key moments.

00:06:57.000 You're not going to convince me this was an accident.

00:07:00.000 I have long said, I prefer Occam's Razor, no conspiracy theories.

00:07:05.000 The simple solution tends... I'm sorry, let's be very correct.

00:07:08.000 In the absence of evidence, the solution that makes the least amount of assumptions tends to be correct.

00:07:12.000 Which would be, in my opinion, not that The Feds instructed the Secret Service, hey, there's an assassination plot against Donald Trump.

00:07:21.000 We just arrested the guy who organized it.

00:07:22.000 Be on the lookout and increase your security.

00:07:24.000 And then they went, okay, and then didn't do it accidentally?

00:07:26.000 How do you not do it?

00:07:28.000 Negligence?

00:07:28.000 Every single agent just doesn't do it.

00:07:31.000 Then you have a guy flying a drone around.

00:07:33.000 Well, you know, our drone detection wasn't working.

00:07:35.000 Okay, you didn't see every every it's remarkable.

00:07:38.000 It was it was it was an act of demonic possession or satanic intervention, where every Secret Service agent was stricken blind, deaf and dumb all at the same moment.

00:07:47.000 And they couldn't see the drone flying over Trump's rally.

00:07:50.000 Their system wasn't set up.

00:07:52.000 They couldn't use their eyes.

00:07:53.000 There's a text message from Secret Service saying, hey, someone just followed our lead in.

00:07:57.000 They saw him sneaking around you.

00:07:59.000 I'm sorry.

00:07:59.000 You make way too many assumptions in Secret Service was told as an assassination plot the day before they arrested the guy.

00:08:06.000 And then the next day, they're like, let's not do anything we're supposed to do to keep Trump safe.

00:08:10.000 Sounds like, in my opinion, the simple solution is a high ranking official.

00:08:16.000 Who was coordinating needed only restrict the full scope of security.

00:08:21.000 Meaning, why were there no Secret Service agents on the roof?

00:08:24.000 Because the run-of-the-mill agents, whose job is not logistics and coordination, just said, hey boss, where do you want me?

00:08:31.000 And he says, I'm gonna need you guys positioned up over here, and we'll communicate by radio.

00:08:34.000 And they go, you got it.

00:08:35.000 All of the rank-and-file dudes just assumed everything was taken care of, but now we're seeing the lead Secret Service agent at Trump's butler rally knew of the threat and didn't raise the alarm.

00:08:45.000 It's exactly what I said, exactly what I predicted.

00:08:48.000 Here's the best part.

00:08:50.000 When they were getting these Secret Service agents to testify, they all basically refused or could not say who was in charge.

00:08:58.000 Now that was the craziest element of the story.

00:09:00.000 They were all just like, we don't know who's in charge.

00:09:02.000 Not a single one of them could come out and explain who gave them the orders and how this went down.

00:09:06.000 I'm sorry.

00:09:07.000 The simple solution here is in some degree, official capacity.

00:09:11.000 It makes sense.

00:09:12.000 And it's terrifying. 0.97

00:09:14.000 Look, there's that survey that shows 28% of Democrats believe, I think it was you, Gov, who did the survey, that the country would be better off if Trump was killed. 0.73

00:09:22.000 It's horrifying.

00:09:24.000 So it takes one Secret Service agent to just be like, stand down?

00:09:29.000 They knew the plot was happening?

00:09:30.000 I'm sorry, I can't make any other conclusions.

00:09:32.000 But you know what?

00:09:33.000 I'm crazy.

00:09:34.000 I'm wrong.

00:09:34.000 None of it's true.

00:09:35.000 Stop listening to me.

00:09:36.000 I think it's telling that Senator Chris Blumenthal, who's a Democrat from Connecticut, has been saying for weeks now the public is going to be shocked by this.

00:09:43.000 And he's been saying all of these federal agencies are stonewalling this investigation.

00:09:48.000 In his comment today, he said, A man died, a former president was almost killed, and it was completely preventable from the outset.

00:09:54.000 I mean, it is bizarre to me that there is so many, like, examples in this report where it's just so – it feels like if it was this preventable, why do we fund this agency?

00:10:05.000 Because they're clearly very bad.

00:10:07.000 There's – one of the examples that some of the reporting has given is that the – you Secret Service knew from the beginning that the local snipers were planning on setting up inside the building rather than on top.

00:10:19.000 They didn't station their own person there.

00:10:21.000 They didn't ask them to be on top of it.

00:10:23.000 I think that was one of the big questions from the outset.

00:10:25.000 Like, there is a rooftop near a presidential candidate, near President Trump.

00:10:30.000 Why was it left available for occupancy?

00:10:33.000 And the answer is the Secret Service let it be available.

00:10:36.000 And then in the days after you get Kim Cheadle, the former director, she's obviously resigned over this, who said, You know, the buck stops with us, the Secret Service, but also local law enforcement was in charge of that building.

00:10:48.000 I mean, they really set local law enforcement up to take the fall for this.

00:10:51.000 And that, again, speaks to this overwhelming culture of wanting to avoid responsibility that we are now getting bipartisan confirmation of.

00:10:59.000 It's not like Republicans are out there wagging their fingers.

00:11:02.000 It's Democrats who are joining in and saying the Secret Service messed up in an inexcusable way.

00:11:08.000 And I think this problem is, you know, systemic, right?

00:11:10.000 Because I think people, you know, forget that the Secret Service has had many scandals and many different administrations as well.

00:11:17.000 There was the prostitution scandal abroad that rocked the agency during the Obama years, and now we're having this.

00:11:23.000 But Tim, to give you a little bit of solace here, I think conspiracy theorists, we're conspiracy theorists today, but the truth teller is tomorrow.

00:11:28.000 And I think that's exactly what's happening here.

00:11:31.000 It doesn't make any sense to try to explain away what just absolutely seems like common sense.

00:11:37.000 Why would you not secure the rooftop?

00:11:39.000 Why would you not make sure there were agents there who had a clear view of the president, able to take him out?

00:11:45.000 And also too, if he knew that the assassin or the would-be assassin was there, why did he not make the call to go neutralize him immediately?

00:11:53.000 They arrested this guy the day before, a Pakistani with Iranian ties, for organizing a hit on Donald Trump, told the Secret Service of the plot.

00:12:03.000 Matt Gaetz revealed, I think it was, who was it, was it Posobiec, that there's five Or was it Benny Johnson?

00:12:10.000 There's five assassination teams in the United States targeting Donald Trump.

00:12:13.000 Matt Gaetz, yeah.

00:12:14.000 Matt Gaetz was talking about this.

00:12:15.000 And now we've of course got that confirmation.

00:12:18.000 Donald Trump has come out and said he was briefed by the Director of National Intelligence that he is being targeted for this.

00:12:22.000 So you go back to July.

00:12:24.000 They knew this was happening.

00:12:26.000 And then the Secret Service Doesn't put their agents on the rooftop.

00:12:30.000 The local law enforcement said four days prior, they told them to get guys up there.

00:12:35.000 They didn't do it.

00:12:36.000 They watched the cops run with their guns drawn and they do nothing.

00:12:40.000 That is a stand down.

00:12:42.000 When they arrested that Pakistani dude, who was they that arrested the Pakistani dude?

00:12:46.000 Pretty sure it was the FBI.

00:12:47.000 And then they told the Secret Service, and Secret Service serves under the Department of Homeland Security.

00:12:51.000 Yes.

00:12:53.000 Is Secret Service Homeland?

00:12:54.000 Under Homeland Security.

00:12:55.000 And FBI's not under Homeland Security?

00:12:57.000 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:12:58.000 They are under Homeland Security?

00:12:59.000 Pretty sure they all are, yeah.

00:13:00.000 They're under DOJ.

00:13:01.000 They're under the Department of Justice.

00:13:04.000 FBI does not work with Homeland Security?

00:13:06.000 No.

00:13:06.000 They're under the different jurisdictions.

00:13:08.000 So they're under the DOJ.

00:13:09.000 Homeland Security is like a newer organization that was formed right after 9-11.

00:13:13.000 They were like, uh-oh, we need a new type of defense.

00:13:16.000 And I'm like, do we?

00:13:17.000 We already have the FBI.

00:13:18.000 It was coordination.

00:13:19.000 All these different federal agencies were operating independently and they wanted coordination between them.

00:13:24.000 And the current head of the Department of Homeland Security, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, was impeached by the House for being derelict in duty because of the crisis at the southern border.

00:13:35.000 I mean, there have been concerns about how the Department of Homeland Security is being managed for All of the Biden administration.

00:13:43.000 I don't know why it would be surprising that yet another component of this would be vulnerable, whether that's because they are not good at their jobs or because they're intentionally leaving gaps in Trump's security.

00:13:55.000 I know we don't want to make accusations, but it just seems like at a certain point, if it wasn't intentional, it's so careless that it's like, This should be a completely defunded department.

00:14:07.000 After 9-11, man, the way that they locked down and created all this... First of all, if there's terrorist cells trying to kill Donald Trump, those are domestic terrorist organizations.

00:14:18.000 They need to be targeted as such.

00:14:19.000 Secondly, I'm just always like, what is the point of homeland security?

00:14:22.000 Why did they make it?

00:14:23.000 What is it for?

00:14:24.000 That's what FBI is, is providing homeland security.

00:14:28.000 That's the FBI's job.

00:14:29.000 Well, let me help you out, good Sir Ian, with some enlightening information.

00:14:33.000 The DHS consists of the Customs Service, Immigration, you've got Federal Protective Services, like Federal Police, you've got Transit Security, Law Enforcement Training Center, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Strategic National Stockpile, National Disaster Medical System, Nuclear Incident Response Teams, Domestic Emergency Support Teams, the Center for Domestic Preparedness, CBRN Countermeasures, the Department of Energy thing.

00:14:58.000 And so, you get the general idea.

00:15:00.000 They had a bunch of different, uh... U.S.

00:15:03.000 Coast Guard was under the Department of Transportation.

00:15:07.000 I don't know.

00:15:08.000 We can certainly make the argument about the expansion of executive authority going too far, but the Coast Guard operating the Department of Transportation seems kind of weird to me.

00:15:15.000 I think maybe Department of Homeland Security kind of makes sense in bringing in security apparatus into one area.

00:15:23.000 They call it Homeland Security, but they'll call things different names than what they're actually doing.

00:15:27.000 I don't know why they made that organization.

00:15:29.000 Why did they centralize authority like they did?

00:15:31.000 Well, the Department of Defense is actually the Department of Offense.

00:15:34.000 And everybody knows it.

00:15:35.000 It has become that.

00:15:36.000 It absolutely has become that.

00:15:37.000 It became that a long time ago.

00:15:38.000 They might as well just come out and rename it the Department of Offense.

00:15:41.000 I mean, whatever, at this point.

00:15:43.000 I'd actually respect that.

00:15:45.000 It's like, well, you know, we haven't declared a war.

00:15:47.000 It used to be the Department of War, right?

00:15:48.000 And then they, of course, changed the name.

00:15:49.000 I think we should re-run back to the Department of War.

00:15:51.000 I think that's the best one.

00:15:52.000 Let's just be honest with our branding here, right?

00:15:54.000 Let's just call it that.

00:15:55.000 That's what the Founding Fathers called it, yeah?

00:15:57.000 Department of War?

00:15:58.000 Yeah.

00:15:58.000 So I have to wonder, with the You know, we had what?

00:16:02.000 These Secret Service agents all started retiring so they could get their pensions because if these investigations go too far, they could lose their pensions or their retirement or whatever.

00:16:13.000 I'm wondering if we're going to get any kind of real explanation, because right now what I'm seeing with the Senate report, nobody wants to bring up the elephant in the room.

00:16:26.000 And that is, it appears the Secret Service agents, and I believe this is the most reasonable conclusion but may not be correct, were hoping that Trump's life would be lost.

00:16:36.000 Which is crazy because he's still dependent on the Secret Service for protection, right?

00:16:40.000 The fact that this is even a question and that's who is still in charge of security, at least for me, seems like, you know, shouldn't we bring in a third party here?

00:16:48.000 Do we have, like, the SEAL team that's available to secure him for a little while?

00:16:51.000 Trump doesn't want private security.

00:16:53.000 I know, which is like, I mean, on the one hand, I understand that there is a level of like, if he is going to be the president and the Secret Service remains in place, you don't want to create a relationship with them where you are antagonizing them.

00:17:06.000 I mean, even after the first assassination attempt, His whole family came out and said there are really great agents.

00:17:12.000 They made what I felt like was a pretty clear distinction between the overarching bureaucracy of the Secret Service and the agents who have been assigned to their specific details.

00:17:21.000 And even in the report, there's a part where they say that Trump's detail had requested basically a certain amount of reinforcements and extra support and they had been denied that by corporate at the top Secret Service.

00:17:36.000 I think Trump is in a very difficult position where he is both dependent on the agents and also has an understanding from the inside that it's like a lot of parts of the federal bureaucracy.

00:17:47.000 Some agents are working honestly and some are not.

00:17:53.000 Trump to return to Butler Fairgrounds where first assassination attempt occurred for October 5th rally.

00:18:00.000 And that's big news, but I do have some concerns here.

00:18:03.000 I'm worried about how they're going, they're going to need a wheelbarrow for Trump's nuts to, you know, try and get him back on stage again.

00:18:10.000 This guy's testosterone, and I'm waiting for all the left to lose their mind over me saying this. 0.91

00:18:14.000 Trump's got, I think he's got a defect, he's got hypergonadism or something. 0.97

00:18:18.000 Too much testosterone. 0.98

00:18:20.000 Dude, you are nearly 80, they have tried to kill you twice, and he does not stop. 0.92

00:18:26.000 I'm joking and intentionally being silly, but by all means leftists, go ahead and run with those clips.

00:18:31.000 Trump's brave.

00:18:32.000 This is brave, and he's confident.

00:18:35.000 To come back to this place, to be fair, lightning ain't gonna strike twice, but this is an open field, and that water tower, whether it's part of, there's a conspiracy theory about it or not, whether it is involved or, you know, some people think there's a guy up there, I don't know about any of that stuff.

00:18:50.000 There's still a serious vantage point.

00:18:52.000 Trump is going out in the open once again to the same place.

00:18:57.000 I think it sends a powerful, powerful message, and I respect it.

00:19:01.000 Sum it up, it's BDE in every sense of the word.

00:19:04.000 And I think also, too, he is the move over 50 cent.

00:19:07.000 You know, I think he is literally daring all these people who have quite literally wished death upon him, continue to wish death upon him.

00:19:14.000 And, you know, you're talking about kind of this bureaucratic, you know, dereliction of duty to protect the president.

00:19:21.000 What we also saw yesterday was the DOJ. 0.94

00:19:24.000 I believe they released the letter that was talking about the bounty on his head, a head of this rally is absolutely insane. That was one of the

00:19:33.000 stories where I was just like, this is just, it's becoming like, you can't deny what you're

00:19:38.000 seeing right now. This is, this is, I don't know, it's just negligence, but it's so

00:19:42.000 negligent that I don't think, I think we got to use a higher degree of language to start

00:19:46.000 to describe it now.

00:19:47.000 It seems like it's more than that. What was the bounty on his head?

00:19:50.000 I think it's $150,000.

00:19:50.000 From who?

00:19:50.000 What is this?

00:19:51.000 It's a second assassination attempt.

00:19:56.000 The second assassin put a box in some guy's house with a note in it that basically said, world, I failed you, but he's offering up $150,000 to anybody else who would try and harm Trump.

00:20:05.000 But ain't nobody's got that money, and it's not a real bounty.

00:20:09.000 Iran has that money.

00:20:10.000 Yeah, but is the presumption that this guy's going to get Iran to pay up?

00:20:14.000 I don't know.

00:20:15.000 The Iranian plot was a million dollars. 0.97

00:20:18.000 You don't need this guy's crackpot nonsense.

00:20:20.000 So a lot of people are saying, oh, why is the DOJ putting out this information as a bounty? 0.50

00:20:23.000 I'm like, because it proves Trump is under threat of assassination, and it triggered the Democrats and the Republicans coming together unanimously to give more security to Donald Trump.

00:20:32.000 A bunch of people were, for real, all over Twitter were saying, you know, with the Covenant shooter they wouldn't release the manifesto, they're putting a target on Trump's back, and I'm like, no, they just forced Democrats to fund Trump's security detail.

00:20:43.000 I think that's a good thing.

00:20:44.000 But don't you think they could have done that in a classified briefing, though, with those members of, like, the Appropriations Committee in the House and the Senate?

00:20:51.000 Yeah, but I think, I overall think the publishing of that letter by the DOJ is good for Donald Trump, and it's good for the right, and it's bad for the Democrat narrative.

00:21:00.000 They're trying to push the lie.

00:21:02.000 So the Quinnipiac poll that came out the other day shows that 90% of Democrats fear violence after the election.

00:21:08.000 Why do Democrats fear violence?

00:21:09.000 It's Antifa and leftists who are engaged in the majority of it because the media keeps screaming in their faces that the far-right neo-Nazis are coming for them.

00:21:17.000 This narrative is being turned on its head because, in fact, it's now been repeatedly liberal-aligned individuals.

00:21:24.000 That guy, the second assassin, had a Biden-Harris sticker on his car, on his truck or whatever.

00:21:29.000 So this is flipping that narrative.

00:21:31.000 I think it's good that we're getting the transparency.

00:21:33.000 Now, I think it serves the interests of the DOJ for what I don't know.

00:21:36.000 I'm not going to trust them.

00:21:38.000 But I say take what you can get and maximize your opportunities.

00:21:42.000 Like, use this as evidence of what we all know is true.

00:21:47.000 I love that Trump is going back to Butler.

00:21:50.000 I think that's really cool.

00:21:51.000 And I also think it shows a level of authenticity and political messaging that his campaign is able to pull off, that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz definitely can't and Biden never could.

00:22:02.000 I mean, think about Biden, the last time they tried to make Biden seem really tough and strong.

00:22:07.000 To me, I think of that.

00:22:09.000 That event he did in Philadelphia where he stood in front of the podium and there was like those crazy dictator lights behind him.

00:22:15.000 I mean they tried to position him as like this strong man and he's really not, whereas this is an example of like true strength.

00:22:22.000 Trump is returning to a place where something really awful happened.

00:22:25.000 I mean it wasn't just that he was shot, two other men in the crowd were shot, plus Corey Comptor lost his life.

00:22:31.000 And he's saying, like, I think this is symbolic of the energy that Americans are looking for in their candidates, that there is sort of a, I will not back down, even when I have a lot to lose myself.

00:22:42.000 So much of, I feel like the way a lot of politicians message right now is like, well, I'm afraid that it will upset my constituents.

00:22:48.000 Oh, well, I'm afraid of this.

00:22:49.000 And people don't want that.

00:22:51.000 I want to go.

00:22:52.000 He's also saying when you come for the king, you better not miss.

00:22:54.000 And I think that's an incredible thing to see.

00:22:58.000 And I think he's actually just living out the words that he said when he was lifted,

00:23:02.000 you know, when he stood up off the ground in Butler before.

00:23:04.000 He's going to continue to fight, fight, fight.

00:23:06.000 And I think that type of energy is infectious, especially when you have, you know, I was,

00:23:10.000 I really believe that the attempts of the left is making to kill this man are not just

00:23:16.000 to actually end his life, but to actually scare people away from his rallies, scare

00:23:20.000 people away from his events, to create this idea that people are running away from Trump,

00:23:25.000 that they're running away from supporting his campaign.

00:23:27.000 That's actually not true.

00:23:28.000 I think his base is extremely fired up.

00:23:31.000 Everywhere you go, you hear people saying, I'm going to vote for the one that they keep trying to kill.

00:23:36.000 And rightfully so, because why are all these people trying to kill this man?

00:23:40.000 Because he represents the gravest threat to the deep state and everything they believe in, everything they stand for, which is diametrically opposed to the interests of the American people.

00:23:48.000 I want to go to the rally.

00:23:49.000 I do too.

00:23:50.000 I think we should.

00:23:51.000 You're braver than me.

00:23:52.000 I mean, I feel like this is probably the safest place imaginable.

00:23:57.000 You know, if anything were to happen at this rally, I have... Well, actually, you know, maybe I take that back.

00:24:03.000 I don't know if there are powerful interests that want to see the United States fall.

00:24:06.000 I would not be surprised, considering the policies they put in place and the way they spend money.

00:24:12.000 So maybe they do want chaos, but I don't know, man, if Trump's going to be there, why wouldn't anybody else?

00:24:16.000 You know what I mean?

00:24:18.000 It's on a Saturday, right?

00:24:19.000 Yeah, it's on a Saturday.

00:24:21.000 Is this the same venue as well?

00:24:24.000 I'm pretty, yeah, butler fairgrounds.

00:24:25.000 He's going back.

00:24:27.000 He's going back.

00:24:27.000 It's going to be nuts.

00:24:28.000 It's going to be the biggest rally he's ever done.

00:24:30.000 Yeah.

00:24:30.000 I think a lot of people will travel to it because again, it's this, it's this retaking of something that was, could have been awful, you know, could have, I mean, it was awful already, but it could have been catastrophic.

00:24:41.000 And he is saying like, we won't back down.

00:24:44.000 And I think that feeds again, he is more authentically able to pull off this courageous, like we are going to face hard things as a country and overcome them energy that again, Americans want right now.

00:24:54.000 Kamala Harris will tell you every day, like, I'm going to have an opportunity economy and hope and change and whatever else.

00:25:00.000 But she's lying to you.

00:25:01.000 I mean, she's part of the current administration that is leaving a lot of Americans economically devastated. 0.74

00:25:06.000 She's not acknowledging the problems at the border.

00:25:08.000 She flip flops on every issues.

00:25:10.000 And sort of to your point, she took time out of her debate when she should have been presenting herself as someone with specific and thought out policies to the American voters to say, well, people don't even go to Trump's rallies.

00:25:23.000 People leave them.

00:25:24.000 They don't even want to be there.

00:25:25.000 Everyone knows that's not true.

00:25:28.000 I think this is going to be historic.

00:25:30.000 Now, I don't know, because I don't want to make any kind of grandiose predictions, but I have to imagine this is the rally to be at.

00:25:38.000 If you've ever been to a rally, if you've never been to a rally, this is the rally you want to go to.

00:25:43.000 There's another big one coming up on the 29th.

00:25:45.000 Do you guys restore the republic or something?

00:25:47.000 Oh yeah, that's not Trump though.

00:25:49.000 No, it's just another... It's like Russell Brand and Angela McArdle.

00:25:53.000 Is Tucker there?

00:25:54.000 I think so, yeah.

00:25:55.000 He shared it yesterday.

00:25:56.000 What's it called?

00:25:56.000 Restore the Republic.

00:25:58.000 Something about the Republic.

00:25:59.000 Bret Weinstein's there.

00:26:00.000 September 29th or October?

00:26:01.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, coming up this weekend.

00:26:02.000 It's kind of like a coalition rally of people from different aspects of reality coming together.

00:26:07.000 Well, it's the disaffected liberals mostly coming with some conservatives to talk about the, you know, I think, is RFK Jr.

00:26:13.000 going to be there?

00:26:14.000 I would be surprised.

00:26:14.000 But this Butler rally I think has the potential to be something that will be written down in the history books.

00:26:20.000 Something gonna be big.

00:26:21.000 Like, this has never before happened, right?

00:26:23.000 Well, I mean, just think about what history would write of this election cycle. 0.91

00:26:27.000 Donald Trump is shot in the side of the head.

00:26:29.000 And look, I always talk about how history is condensed.

00:26:33.000 When you're reading about history, you know, the Battle of Fort Sumter and then that led to the Battle of Manassas and it's like, whoa, how long apart was that?

00:26:39.000 It wasn't like five minutes later, they all ran up to D.C.

00:26:42.000 and they were getting ready for war.

00:26:43.000 Probably there was a period of calm and people didn't think it was going to happen.

00:26:46.000 They're going to write in the history books, they're going to say in July 13th, 2024, a gunman struck Donald Trump in the side of the head.

00:26:52.000 He would later go on to return to the rally for a historic moment on October 5th, and you will read that in one paragraph.

00:26:58.000 When Teddy Roosevelt got shot during giving a speech, he just finished the speech.

00:27:02.000 That's the story he tells.

00:27:03.000 Did they catch the guy that shot him and that's why he wasn't taken off stage?

00:27:07.000 They knew that the would-be assassin was handled?

00:27:10.000 Yeah, that's what happened. 1.00

00:27:11.000 When Trump got back up and put his hand in the air, I think that was very stupid. 1.00

00:27:15.000 Sometimes bravery and stupidity go hand in hand, and then you lose your commander. 1.00

00:27:19.000 Your brave commander's gone because he was too stupid. 1.00

00:27:22.000 There could have been other gunmen. 1.00

00:27:24.000 That could have been the last moment of his life.

00:27:26.000 It was brave, yes, but you have to balance bravery with intelligence.

00:27:30.000 And there are times when you retreat as a brave man, and it's called a tactical retreat, because you can reposition to come back into the situation.

00:27:38.000 Ian, I have a question for you.

00:27:40.000 Yeah, please.

00:27:42.000 I'd like you to imagine a bunch of, let's just say, elvish writers, you know, and they're standing in the fields charging towards the orcs.

00:27:54.000 And their leader, seeing them be outflanked and their numbers being decimated, knows that he needs to lead one last charge, for if the orcs go forth, they will destroy their homeland of Elftown or whatever.

00:28:06.000 Like 300.

00:28:07.000 And so the leader raises the flag and runs full speed towards an entire army, knowing he may not make it, but the people need to see that their leader is standing on the front line in the face of danger, refusing to back down. 1.00

00:28:19.000 So I hear this from people like anybody who stands up when they're getting shot as a moron. 0.99

00:28:24.000 Trump's a leader. 1.00

00:28:26.000 I don't think Trump is a moron. 0.99

00:28:27.000 I think Trump's instinct is to stand up and raise his fist in the face of mortal danger and yell fight. 1.00

00:28:34.000 Trump is as silly as it sounds because he does not present this as this reality TV comedy guy. 0.97

00:28:40.000 Like if you watch the old commercials he's in eating pizza backwards or whatever. 1.00

00:28:44.000 He gets shot in the side of the head and his instinct was that of what we expect from actual leaders to charge.

00:28:51.000 And I gotta be honest.

00:28:54.000 A king who needs to lead his country, deciding to go in the front of his battalion and lead a charge into enemy ranks. 1.00

00:29:04.000 Sounds like a moron, doesn't he? 1.00

00:29:06.000 And we praise that behavior. 1.00

00:29:08.000 We say that's bravery.

00:29:09.000 King Alexander the Great was known for that.

00:29:11.000 He led the cavalry on the left. 1.00

00:29:12.000 Isn't that stupid? 1.00

00:29:13.000 You're charging into an army with no... Like, are you nuts? 1.00

00:29:16.000 It depends, man.

00:29:16.000 If they survive, they're always called heroes.

00:29:18.000 If they die, they're forgotten, usually.

00:29:19.000 And Donald Trump stood up after getting shot in the side of the head and decided he was going to yell, fight, fight, fight.

00:29:24.000 Instead, you know what they wanted?

00:29:27.000 What they would have loved.

00:29:28.000 And I say they, the people who hate him and want to see him harmed.

00:29:30.000 They wanted to see him crouch down, panic and frantically run in a random direction.

00:29:34.000 And they would have put that on TV and said, what a scared, And you know, you can't really pin that on Trump because that was the Secret Service's job was to hold him down even though his instinct is to get up to stop him from doing it.

00:29:45.000 Because we know you want to get up, Don.

00:29:46.000 We know you want to be the leader in the front.

00:29:48.000 But there are times when it's too dangerous and we have to protect you from your own ego.

00:29:53.000 But they didn't do it.

00:29:54.000 They failed.

00:29:54.000 They failed in their job.

00:29:56.000 I will reiterate.

00:29:58.000 I think Trump showed leadership qualities when he stood up and yelled, fight, fight, fight.

00:30:02.000 And I think the president knew the gravity of that moment, right? That like someone,

00:30:07.000 we didn't know who at the time, had tried to put a bullet into the heart of the MAGA movement. And I

00:30:12.000 think he knew that he had to stand up and, as you said, reaffirm the crowd, reaffirm those who are

00:30:19.000 watching. I remember when I saw it on Twitter, I didn't believe that it happened. I thought it was

00:30:25.000 fake. I was like, there's no way this could happen in 2024 with the level of security that I thought

00:30:30.000 we enjoyed, especially at those rallies. But But for him to get up, it's just so classically Trump, but also so inhuman.

00:30:40.000 Who would ever think to do something like that?

00:30:42.000 I don't know.

00:30:43.000 He's in a league of his own.

00:30:44.000 I'd love to ask him about it, because I genuinely wonder.

00:30:47.000 The first thing he says is, let me get my shoes, let me get my shoes.

00:30:50.000 Like, that's where I could get Ian being like, okay, buddy, we can leave the shoes behind.

00:30:54.000 Like, that's not the security, but it's so funny.

00:30:57.000 But it's an instinctual reaction.

00:31:00.000 You know, I've been in a lot of situations that were extremely dangerous.

00:31:04.000 I've been shot at.

00:31:06.000 Now, I don't want to say that someone was pointing the gun at me to shoot me.

00:31:09.000 I was in a crowd in Ferguson and they were shooting in the direction of me and several other people.

00:31:13.000 We all hit the deck.

00:31:14.000 And in that moment, You can hear bullets flying, and I was panicking.

00:31:20.000 And I know how to handle these situations.

00:31:23.000 And this is all live.

00:31:24.000 It's on Vice's YouTube.

00:31:25.000 You can watch the live stream as I'm getting shot at, and I run, you know, through tear gas.

00:31:31.000 I do not believe I could handle it the same way Trump would, where he knows he's got all of the people who believe in him standing beside him, and his gut reaction first was, let me get my shoes, but then he stands up and says, fight, fight, fight.

00:31:45.000 For me, I ran.

00:31:46.000 I ran away.

00:31:48.000 I was like, oh, I'm being shouted at, what do I do?

00:31:50.000 Other journalists run towards the bullets.

00:31:52.000 I'm not going to pretend like I'm better than they are or smarter than them.

00:31:56.000 I don't know.

00:31:56.000 I'll tell you what I did.

00:31:57.000 I think Donald Trump did what a leader needs to do and showed defiance in the face of danger.

00:32:02.000 He wanted to let the people know he was OK.

00:32:03.000 Yeah, I mean, I think even the like, let me get my shoes thing is sort of speaking to the like, I am going to leave this stage with composure and with dignity to show everyone that like, This did not rattle me.

00:32:16.000 I am bigger than this, which is fascinating.

00:32:19.000 To be shot and then think everyone here needs me to be strong.

00:32:25.000 It's like an instinctive reaction.

00:32:26.000 And again, this is what I think Americans crave in leadership right now.

00:32:30.000 Someone who is thinking, how can I best serve you?

00:32:33.000 And I think really that's what Trump did in that moment.

00:32:35.000 Here's a story from the Postmillennial.

00:32:37.000 Idaho man charged with threatening to kill Trump.

00:32:40.000 I am going to read what he wrote.

00:32:42.000 And no one should.

00:32:43.000 But he basically wrote that he was going to personally go after Donald Trump.

00:32:46.000 This man's last name is Crazy Bull.

00:32:48.000 His name is Crazy Bull.

00:32:49.000 What?

00:32:50.000 That's right.

00:32:51.000 And he's 64. 1.00

00:32:52.000 And apparently he'd been calling Trump's home and said he's going to start driving there and he wants to go after the rapist, Pig Trump. 0.99

00:33:01.000 And that says everything right there. 0.99

00:33:03.000 That the lies from the Democrats, from the media, are driving people to the most extreme circumstances.

00:33:10.000 It's gotta be what it is.

00:33:12.000 I've been mulling this over on stream.

00:33:14.000 I was talking to people about it.

00:33:16.000 This is the first time I've ever seen the emotions attached to a political president in the United States.

00:33:21.000 It's always been like Obama.

00:33:23.000 Brutally insult that guy and people that love them would just be like, okay, that's enough Whatever, but they didn't take it emotionally harmful and people that love this guy will get like physically Hurt if you insult him some of them not everybody and then people that can't stand and will get physically hurt if you If you promote him, and it's, I've never seen this before.

00:33:44.000 It's like it's architected to be this way through media manipulation.

00:33:47.000 It's got to be like the people are programmed.

00:33:50.000 In the 2016 cycle, what is it?

00:33:53.000 93% of stories about Trump were negative.

00:33:55.000 That was true in 2024, and it's still true today.

00:33:57.000 The latest analysis that was coming out of I think like ABC News was like 93% negative stories for Trump.

00:34:03.000 They only ever lie and say negative things about the guy.

00:34:06.000 And then people are fed up with it and they're getting emotionally defensive for him.

00:34:10.000 They're like, just don't, just stop.

00:34:12.000 I've seen it.

00:34:12.000 I'm done with it.

00:34:13.000 Quit making fun of him.

00:34:14.000 Like that kind of energy.

00:34:16.000 So they're getting upset if you, if you trash him, kind of.

00:34:19.000 There was this really, really funny thing on MSN.

00:34:21.000 I think it was MSNBC where they were asking union workers about January 6th.

00:34:24.000 Did you guys see this?

00:34:26.000 There's just like- February, one said like February 6th or something like that.

00:34:29.000 Someone said that?

00:34:29.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:34:30.000 What's that?

00:34:31.000 Yeah, they're just like, what is that?

00:34:32.000 And they were like, January 6th.

00:34:33.000 One guy's like, oh, I think I saw that on the news.

00:34:35.000 And they were like, so does it sound like it matters to you?

00:34:36.000 He's like, I don't care.

00:34:37.000 Yeah.

00:34:38.000 It does not matter to us.

00:34:40.000 But for a lot of people.

00:34:42.000 That's why that Quinnipiac poll showed that 90% of Democrats fear violence because MSNBC has just been beaten over the head screaming that it's gonna get bad.

00:34:50.000 Which is so insane when they're the ones trying to literally kill their political opponents.

00:34:53.000 Like it's not... Well I would say...

00:34:56.000 I wouldn't say that of MSNBC.

00:34:57.000 No, no, no.

00:34:58.000 But a lot of these, you know, progressives and these Democrats who are living in this

00:35:01.000 perpetual state of fear, it is only one side of the aisle right now that are throwing bullets

00:35:05.000 around at their political opponents.

00:35:06.000 You don't see this happening to Kamala Harris.

00:35:08.000 You don't see this happening to Tim Walz.

00:35:10.000 It's happening to one political party.

00:35:12.000 And it's why I get so frustrated when I see those on MSNBC who always try to both sides

00:35:18.000 this issue.

00:35:19.000 They're saying both sides need to tamper down the rhetoric.

00:35:21.000 They all need to be more civil.

00:35:22.000 No, y'all are the one trying to kill Donald Trump every other week, it seems.

00:35:27.000 Why do we why is this a both sides issue?

00:35:29.000 I don't think that it is.

00:35:30.000 I think it's interesting that the media has I mean, we know it's biased, but they really

00:35:36.000 do seem to be.

00:35:39.000 Working with this drama in part because I think it feeds their own viewership.

00:35:44.000 Like, do you remember during COVID people talked about this a lot?

00:35:47.000 You would get people saying like, I just had to take a break from watching the news because everything is so horrible, but I feel like I have to be informed and I can't look away.

00:35:53.000 And I think there are a lot of Americans who feel that way about politics.

00:35:56.000 They are prone to being anxious or prone to having some sort of unstable emotional reaction

00:36:02.000 to it.

00:36:03.000 And so it's being fed, but that also keeps eyes on the mainstream media.

00:36:07.000 So rather than basically telling the voters, like, yes, politics can affect the outcome

00:36:11.000 of laws and this is serious and you should go vote, but also you are basically probably

00:36:16.000 at higher risk of being impacted by the listeria outbreak in America than by actual political

00:36:22.000 violence.

00:36:24.000 You know, they say, well, Trump is a danger all the time and you should live in fear.

00:36:28.000 It's inaccurate and I think it does a disservice to the people who are depending on them, who feel a level of helplessness and look to the mainstream media to give them accurate information.

00:36:38.000 They're not doing it because it serves their bottom line.

00:36:40.000 Yeah, I get that vibe too that they're not it's not that the the MSNBC anchors that say things like he's a threat he must be stopped at all costs or whatever these words they're using they're not trying to kill him but they are living in fear and they're making money off of driving viewers that and maybe they deep down I think a lot of people have been driven insane by the media cycle, and in 2020 we saw this.

00:37:01.000 Like, just make it stop.

00:37:02.000 But they don't realize that people that are very mentally ill might take that as, 0.64

00:37:06.000 I will do literally anything to stop this man.

00:37:08.000 Like, I think, I think a lot of people have been driven insane by the media cycle.

00:37:13.000 And in 2020, we saw this, they incorrectly blamed Donald Trump for the

00:37:17.000 abnormality of society.

00:37:18.000 Donald Trump is a symptom of what this country has been going through.

00:37:24.000 He is not the cause of it.

00:37:25.000 Donald Trump got elected because of the big bank bailouts, because of the needless wars and foreign intervention.

00:37:31.000 And Occupy Wall Street, the Tea Party were manifestations that ultimately, I think, lead to Donald Trump.

00:37:36.000 I remember I was at the Deplora Ball.

00:37:40.000 That's what it was called.

00:37:42.000 And two people with their big Omaga hats, and this is 2017, and they were like, hey, Tim, we're big fans.

00:37:46.000 And I was like, really?

00:37:47.000 I was like, but you're a Republican.

00:37:48.000 I'm like, no, we're Occupy Wall Street, but we're for Trump.

00:37:51.000 And I was like, really?

00:37:52.000 And they were like, oh, tons of Occupy people went for Trump.

00:37:54.000 They were occupied because they opposed the bailouts, the banker bailouts.

00:37:58.000 And why would they support Hillary Clinton?

00:38:00.000 She represents the same thing.

00:38:01.000 Trump was more like Bernie.

00:38:02.000 They wanted Bernie.

00:38:03.000 They couldn't get Bernie.

00:38:04.000 They say Donald Trump.

00:38:05.000 So what happens now is, everything is crazy.

00:38:08.000 The media is screaming in your face.

00:38:10.000 Rachel Maddow, screaming in your face, just every day, the top of her lungs. 0.97

00:38:15.000 And these people are going, make it stop, make it stop.

00:38:17.000 Why is this happening?

00:38:18.000 And they go, it's happening because of Trump.

00:38:19.000 And they go, ooh, it's Trump's fault.

00:38:21.000 But here's the thing.

00:38:24.000 This was the narrative in 2020.

00:38:26.000 I think people have learned their lesson.

00:38:29.000 And we're seeing a lot of very positive signs for Donald Trump right now.

00:38:32.000 His polls are improving.

00:38:34.000 I keep mentioning the Quinnipiac thing.

00:38:35.000 He is now leading.

00:38:36.000 You got a New York Times Siena poll showing Donald Trump leading in battleground states.

00:38:39.000 He's up in aggregate in the battleground states.

00:38:41.000 And so all of this is a very good indicator.

00:38:44.000 In PA and key counties, it's now flipped.

00:38:47.000 The Republican Party now larger than the Democrats for the first time in a bunch of areas.

00:38:51.000 I think regular people have started to realize Trump ain't the one who made everything crazy.

00:38:55.000 The media and the Democrats and the neocons did.

00:38:58.000 He said in the 80s, I think it was in the 80s when Oprah was interviewing him, she asked him if he'd ever run for president.

00:39:02.000 He was like, I don't think, if it ever got so bad, I probably would.

00:39:07.000 He was something like that, he told Oprah.

00:39:09.000 And he was being honest.

00:39:11.000 And he saw the 2008 economic collapse.

00:39:14.000 He saw, I don't know if he understood exactly everything that was going on.

00:39:17.000 He's very smart and he knows a lot more than he lets on sometimes.

00:39:20.000 But he's really trying to offer a remedy to this economic catastrophe that the United States has been suffering through the overprinting of fiat currency in the last 50 years. 0.95

00:39:31.000 And not everyone seems to either understand that he's trying to do that or agrees with his form of solution, especially the imperialist powers that are trying to convert the United States into the serfdom technocracy where they're trying to strip people of their rights and make them part of a global system where they serve the corporation like Trump's not into that crap.

00:39:51.000 It really feels like, you guys ever see the movie Elysium with Matt Damon?

00:39:55.000 Yeah.

00:39:55.000 Yeah, so there's a space station in the sky where all the white French-speaking people live and then everyone on earth is like non-white and speaks Spanish.

00:40:02.000 But it really does feel like that Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, the Democrats, They represent literally that.

00:40:10.000 They're going to bring in a bunch of non-citizens under temporary protected status to give them jobs, but they won't have any voting rights. 0.99

00:40:15.000 They'll be second-class citizens so they can create their affluent suburbs walled off from everybody else and have surf labor. 0.91

00:40:22.000 We'll be nice about it.

00:40:23.000 We'll call it surf labor. 0.98

00:40:24.000 And Trump is like, how about we just secure our borders, have a bunch of babies, get jobs, and do the hard work to make this country function again.

00:40:31.000 And I'm kind of like, I kind of like that.

00:40:34.000 With the right imperial base, with the right industrial base, you can.

00:40:38.000 You could do that without war. 0.87

00:40:39.000 I mean, if we're really producing the right things in the United States, we wouldn't have to conquer and take it.

00:40:44.000 Think about what the economy really is.

00:40:45.000 It's people trading with one another.

00:40:48.000 And what you need then is access to energy, which allows you to create more, substantially more.

00:40:53.000 There's a really great little mini-doc I watched a long time ago about the evolution of energy.

00:40:57.000 Energy used to be human energy.

00:40:59.000 Humans would eat food, and then they'd do work like with a hatchet or something to do work.

00:41:04.000 Then one day they were like, hey, if I take this ball and whip it a bunch, it'll do what I tell it.

00:41:10.000 Then they used animal energy to till fields because the animals could easily walk and then eat grass all day.

00:41:15.000 Then they started burning wood, they started burning coal, etc, etc.

00:41:18.000 You get the point.

00:41:19.000 Now we're at this point where If in the United States we unleash energy as per Donald Trump's number one plan in Agenda 47, that brings costs down.

00:41:30.000 It allows more expansion.

00:41:32.000 The simple version is, if you have to work less, you have an opportunity to work on other things more.

00:41:39.000 So for all these young people who are like, I don't want to work at Starbucks, I want to do fulfilling things.

00:41:44.000 Imagine if Starbucks paid you so well, you only had to work there part-time a little bit, enough to pay your bills, and then have an additional 40 hours to, I don't know, learn guitar or paint or whatever it is you wanted to do.

00:41:54.000 That's a good economy, and that's what we want to happen.

00:41:57.000 Trump, energy is the first step, and I know Ian loves it.

00:42:01.000 Hydrogen?

00:42:02.000 You love the energy.

00:42:03.000 That was my role at Mines as Director of Energy.

00:42:05.000 I'm obsessed with electricity, energy, forming it, creating it, harvesting it, all of it.

00:42:10.000 This is why Ian said he is the biggest Trump supporter and he'll be voting for Trump.

00:42:13.000 He'll crawl over broken glass to vote for him.

00:42:14.000 They say you can't create energy, but you can draw it from without the system.

00:42:17.000 There are no closed systems.

00:42:18.000 This is where people that may say fusion get it wrong.

00:42:21.000 They say you can't get more energy out of that system than you put into it.

00:42:23.000 That violates the second law of thermodynamics.

00:42:25.000 But there is no system, bro.

00:42:26.000 Yeah, you use these closed systems to pull water out of wells.

00:42:31.000 It makes sense in the third dimension, but in reality there are no closed systems.

00:42:34.000 We draw energy from outside of our perception.

00:42:37.000 Well, so this is, a good example is when you see these videos online of like, there will be a perpetual motion machine, and you're like, how's it spinning?

00:42:45.000 Well, it's because sunlight is hitting a part of it which causes the expansion of gases or something, so it's possible to do.

00:42:50.000 Yeah, and along the lines of creating perpetual motion, the sun, we would look at it and say, that is perpetual motion.

00:42:55.000 It's not.

00:42:56.000 It's just moving very slowly.

00:42:57.000 It takes three or four billion years to run out of fuel.

00:43:00.000 Right, so back to the politics before Ian loses it.

00:43:03.000 My point is, Trump's number one policy item is energy in this country.

00:43:06.000 Drill baby drill. 1.00

00:43:07.000 Drill baby drill, but it's more than that.

00:43:09.000 Trump has talked about nuclear, and Trump is absolutely going to be open to everything else, especially Hydrogen.

00:43:15.000 Yeah, especially hydrogen.

00:43:16.000 But I gotta be honest with you, we've had people super chat that the hydrogen thing isn't as good as it sounds.

00:43:20.000 Fusion is probably the direction.

00:43:21.000 They're both great.

00:43:22.000 Yeah, tabletop fusion in a palladium mesh with tritium, which is heavy hydrogen with two added neutrons.

00:43:27.000 You just, you get, that's the way to do cold fusion.

00:43:29.000 Well, we've- Hydrogen comes out of the graphene process of like- Trump's your guy.

00:43:33.000 Yeah, you know what the problem is with Kamala Harris? 1.00

00:43:36.000 Look, I'm going to say this right now for everyone listening at home.

00:43:38.000 If you are someone who just finds yourself obsessed with hydrogen energy or graphing, you've got to vote for Donald Trump.

00:43:44.000 Kamala Harris is trying to... The neolibs and neocons want petrodollar. 1.00

00:43:48.000 They want oil to be king so they can control the energy of other nations, and that's the IMF liberal economic world order plan.

00:43:56.000 That's why they want war with Russia. 0.89

00:43:58.000 That's why they're defending Ukraine and funding it.

00:44:00.000 And I know Everyone in America, they just love hydrogen energy so much and they're so interested in it, that's why they're going to vote for Donald Trump.

00:44:07.000 Look at what they're doing at Rice with flash joule heating.

00:44:09.000 You can take carbon and hit it with electricity at 7,000 degrees at 0.1 millisecond pulses and turn it into graphene powder and you get hydrogen, about $4.50 worth of hydrogen for every kilogram of graphene you produce.

00:44:20.000 You actually end up profiting, making a profitable, just by, you actually make money to create the hydrogen.

00:44:25.000 We've inverted the cost structure.

00:44:27.000 Wow.

00:44:27.000 You've sold me on Trump, Ian.

00:44:28.000 I'm going to vote for that guy.

00:44:31.000 You should vote for him.

00:44:32.000 He might actually invest in these things you love so much.

00:44:35.000 I hear that he actually is, and I mean that seriously.

00:44:37.000 Or guide investments.

00:44:37.000 I actually hear that.

00:44:39.000 I think you should talk to Vivek, in all honesty.

00:44:42.000 If you come back on, we should get him up.

00:44:44.000 I feel like Vivek would absolutely go to Trump and be like, take a look at these, and Elon too.

00:44:48.000 Put together a proposal, like a legitimate proposal.

00:44:51.000 Let's jump to this tweet we got from Libs of TikTok.

00:44:54.000 Holy-ish Democrat delegate to the House of Representatives accidentally says the quiet part out loud.

00:45:00.000 She admits the DOJ and FBI are weaponized to go after people with opposing views.

00:45:05.000 Let's listen and hear what she said.

00:45:07.000 What is the point of this subcommittee?

00:45:10.000 Because it's necessary for the public and the media to hear, to try, and provide cover for the eradication of the Department of Justice and the FBI.

00:45:21.000 We are having these hearings so that you become immune.

00:45:25.000 You become inured to the notion of the removal of the FBI and DOJ. 0.81

00:45:32.000 So that those agencies are no longer there to serve as a check against white nationalism, great replacement theorists, Christian nationalists, white fragility, fascists, and the twice impeached, convicted felon, former president, and would-be dictator, Donald Trump.

00:45:52.000 It's both sides though, Tim.

00:45:54.000 It's both sides.

00:45:54.000 I'm gonna step back and be like, well, you know, Most of us would say, yeah, white nationalism, bad thing.

00:46:02.000 Great Replacement Theory is kind of nebulous and ill-defined.

00:46:05.000 Christian nationalists?

00:46:07.000 The DOJ needs to serve as a check against Christian nationalists?

00:46:10.000 This country has long been Christian nationalist.

00:46:12.000 What is this?

00:46:13.000 White fragility? 1.00

00:46:15.000 The DOJ needs to serve as a check against white fragility? 1.00

00:46:19.000 Fascism, not a fan of, but that's just a political ideology.

00:46:23.000 But more importantly, she says the DOJ and the FBI need to serve as a check against Donald Trump.

00:46:29.000 What?

00:46:30.000 He is the frontrunner in the battleground states for the presidency.

00:46:35.000 Who is this girl? 0.99

00:46:36.000 She's delegate Stacey Plaskett.

00:46:39.000 for the Virgin Islands. It's a very racist statement she made, talking about white people,

00:46:44.000 like white—what about racial fragility? How about that? 0.59

00:46:48.000 How about racial supremacy as a problem?

00:46:50.000 There has been this attempt to turn Christian nationalism into a boogeyman.

00:46:53.000 They're trying to make Christian nationalism out to be like extremists, when mostly it's just

00:47:01.000 Christians who believe in a country with a moral foundation in Christianity.

00:47:08.000 And they're, like, if they were as a threat as anyone might, as she claims them to be, they would have been doing substantially more over the past several decades.

00:47:16.000 I get like xenophobia is a bit of a problem.

00:47:19.000 You don't want people being so terrified of their neighbor that they won't even let them on their property.

00:47:23.000 But it's also not the role of the FBI to fight against xenophobia, though.

00:47:26.000 You know, I think, you know, that's not going to convince anyone to be less xenophobic.

00:47:29.000 But I think what's troubling really about this is that, you know, the Christian national thing has always been really interesting to me because it's like, you separate the words of Christian nationalism, nationalism, you love your country, you believe in, you know, it's the best country in the world, whatever.

00:47:43.000 And you have Christian, you know, Christian, which is Christianity.

00:47:46.000 So which of those two things do these people have a problem with?

00:47:49.000 Like loving your country or loving your God?

00:47:51.000 And if you were to place, you know, Christian nationalists with Muslim nationalists, she would never say that word.

00:47:56.000 She would never say that with any other religion.

00:47:58.000 But for some odd reason, when it comes to saying Christian nationalists, it's okay to wage a war against Christians in this country, but any other religion, you can't do it.

00:48:06.000 Even if we're going to step back and be like, okay, like those are ideologies and beliefs.

00:48:11.000 It's kind of weird that the DOJ and the FBI would target people based on their beliefs.

00:48:15.000 But to add, to serve as a check against Trump, she's outright saying that the DOJ's purpose is to go after a political opponent. 0.96

00:48:23.000 Well, and if this is what an elected delegate thinks the purpose of these federal agencies are, I think we should get rid of them.

00:48:29.000 She's saying we're having these hearings, so you stop thinking that.

00:48:32.000 But in this case, I do not like whatever version of this federal authority she has cooked up, right?

00:48:38.000 You don't have to like the things she listed.

00:48:40.000 You don't have to like Donald Trump.

00:48:43.000 To say that there is a specific branch of the government that's tasked with going after what ultimately amounts to being right-leaning ideologies and belief systems and white supremacy, I guess, in this country seems bizarre to me.

00:49:00.000 And again, you can see with the term white fragility, there's obviously a coded language here. 0.74

00:49:05.000 We can tell that she's progressive.

00:49:07.000 We can tell where this is coming from.

00:49:09.000 But I thought the Department of Justice was to bring justice to people who have been victims of crimes, and I thought the FBI was hypothetically to investigate crimes.

00:49:18.000 So if not believing what she wants is a crime, I worry for a lot of the country.

00:49:23.000 We got to rename some of these departments.

00:49:24.000 I think the DOD should probably be the DOO.

00:49:28.000 Or the DAO, the Department of War.

00:49:30.000 I like Department of War.

00:49:31.000 Yeah, okay.

00:49:32.000 And then the DOJ should be the DOD, the Department of Democrats.

00:49:34.000 Yeah.

00:49:35.000 I think that's what it is for the most part.

00:49:37.000 I think we really need to recalibrate nationalism, too, because we are in a global stage.

00:49:43.000 It's not just America first at any cost.

00:49:46.000 You're not going to burn the rest of the world to improve the United States.

00:49:49.000 You need to bring everyone up with you as a leader.

00:49:54.000 Well said, and the America first people agree with you. 0.70

00:49:56.000 Good, good.

00:49:57.000 Because I think it's misinterpreted sometimes that we will be the best at any cost, and that's not what it's about.

00:50:01.000 Well, that's the lie.

00:50:03.000 What the left will try to push is that nationalism, or America first, is basically saying at the expense of others, or that we're isolationist, when all it really says is, hey, instead of spending $200 billion on Ukraine, can we fix the pipes in Newark and Pittsburgh and Flint first?

00:50:16.000 And then perhaps in Afghanistan and Soviet— Or not Soviet Union.

00:50:21.000 Maybe in Japan we can fix their pipes too.

00:50:23.000 That's why the saying isn't America only.

00:50:25.000 It's America first, and then. 0.83

00:50:27.000 Because, you know, my view is I think we should give all of our disposable income, 100% of it, I want everyone in America to sign on to giving away all of your disposable income to all the impoverished nations of the world. 0.83

00:50:41.000 You got it. After we secure our borders, fix our roads, rebuild our bridges, secure the jobs for 0.85

00:50:47.000 the unemployed, fix the colleges, get home prices in order, get our military secure, there should

00:50:53.000 be not a single homeless veteran, there should be, you know, veterans should be getting taken 1.00

00:50:57.000 care of for their medical needs. Once we solve all of our problems and we're all sitting in

00:51:03.000 floating chairs and pure luxury and comfort, then we can start giving our money to other countries. 0.80

00:51:07.000 Usually what happens is they'll come here, people from another country, they'll learn how to do that, and then they'll go there and fix their own problems. 0.97

00:51:13.000 Because that's better than just tossing money over there or building a pipeline.

00:51:16.000 Sometimes, but not really, though, right?

00:51:18.000 Like, it's a mix.

00:51:19.000 This idea that, like, people come here and then leave is usually not true, especially if they're like, yeah, this country's bad.

00:51:24.000 Sometimes they'll send money back to other countries to help their family members or whatever else, but For the most part, like, people come to the U.S.

00:51:31.000 because they want to stay.

00:51:32.000 I mean, even asylum seekers, right?

00:51:34.000 Like, asylum seekers arrive and ultimately stay in the country. 0.99

00:51:37.000 Very rarely do they go back to where they're from.

00:51:39.000 It's a freaking amazing country.

00:51:40.000 When I was in middle school, I remember my history class going over, like, vocabulary words, and one was patriotism.

00:51:46.000 And they're like, oh, that's love of country.

00:51:48.000 And then nationalism, my teacher defined as Too much love of country.

00:51:52.000 Love of country, but it's gone too far.

00:51:54.000 And I find this fascinating because we look at the American youth and say, why don't you care about this country?

00:52:00.000 Why don't you like it?

00:52:00.000 But they're also always warned against being proud of being American and wanting to have a culture that reflects wanting to be a part of it.

00:52:08.000 What's the difference between patriotism and nationalism?

00:52:11.000 Well, according to my teacher, nationalism is patriotism but too far.

00:52:16.000 Okay, well, nationalism is a broad term representing you favor the strengthening of your nation.

00:52:23.000 Over the strengthening of your state?

00:52:24.000 Is that what it is?

00:52:25.000 Internationalism would be a combination of ideas such as we should intervene in foreign countries, how they should be doing things, and they should be able to tell us what we should do as well.

00:52:35.000 Nationalism is like, look, this is our borders, our jurisdiction, our country.

00:52:38.000 We're going to take care of ourselves, focus on ourselves.

00:52:41.000 And within nationalist ideologies, you have international treaties and relationships.

00:52:45.000 The globalist, yeah, globalist identity.

00:52:47.000 The media tried mocking a lot of the nationalists. 1.00

00:52:51.000 That were prominent online because they were from different countries and someone said there's an international nationalist movement and they all started saying, haha, you're all so dumb, you're morons. 1.00

00:53:00.000 And they were like, you don't seem to understand what this means. 0.97

00:53:02.000 It means that there are varying politicians and activists from various countries who believe in the sovereignty of their nation and the right to self-determination.

00:53:10.000 And they agree that Germany has it and the Netherlands have it.

00:53:14.000 That's international support for nationalism.

00:53:16.000 I guess some of the problem with nationalism is when you become so obsessed with the nation-state

00:53:20.000 and the power and sovereignty of the nation itself, it gives away the sovereignty of the

00:53:24.000 citizen. In the United States, we're all sovereign, and we have created this united

00:53:28.000 form of statehood, and we've created a nation out of it.

00:53:31.000 But if you become obsessed with the power of the federal government and you want to give over

00:53:35.000 your power to the nation-state, you've lost it at the local level.

00:53:38.000 Why don't you ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country?

00:53:42.000 I do, every day.

00:53:43.000 In fact, I'm doing it.

00:53:44.000 I am the solution.

00:53:45.000 So the issue was, we used to have more of a sense of duty.

00:53:48.000 I'm not going to claim this country was ever perfect, because I don't think any country ever is, but we had more honor and more duty, and now that's being stripped away for a variety of reasons.

00:53:57.000 But it's also because of the lack of patriotism in our country, right?

00:53:59.000 It's like, to your point, at colleges and universities today all across America, you're demonized for being too patriotic.

00:54:06.000 You're not demonized for not being patriotic enough, right?

00:54:09.000 Like, you have your teachers saying, oh, nationalism is when you love America too much, which is the most nonsensical thing in the world because I look at the problem and I see, obviously, the problem in our country is that people don't love America enough.

00:54:19.000 So much so that they're going on college campuses, actively praising a terrorist organization like Hamas and

00:54:24.000 is saying from the river to the sea they don't even know which sea

00:54:26.000 they're talking about. Or which river. Right, or which river. They just

00:54:30.000 know that they hate America and these people also hate America so they're going to go out and

00:54:34.000 chant these nonsensical things and wear you know you know a Palestinian 0.99

00:54:38.000 flag but also a gay flag even though the gays are thrown off of buildings in 0.98

00:54:42.000 these countries. 0.99

00:54:43.000 It's like chickens being for KFC.

00:54:45.000 But it doesn't matter to them because they've been so indoctrinated believing that wokeism is just synonymous with apparently not loving America, which is a truly unfortunate thing because it's like that has forced them to literally take the sides of people who are oppressing the very people they claim to care so much about.

00:55:04.000 It's a cult.

00:55:04.000 Yeah, it's a cult.

00:55:05.000 Well, and I wouldn't think that nationalism in America would have to be obsession with the federal government.

00:55:11.000 Like, America's government is set up hypothetically so that states have strong independent governments and can dictate their own laws.

00:55:19.000 We have ceded power from the states to the federal government over time, but hypothetically, you can be like, I want to put, you know, America is the best country and I'm for it and I want to strengthen it without having to say, therefore we need a bloated bureaucratic state at the top.

00:55:32.000 That's exactly what I'm thinking is that the love of the nation, the love of United States is the love of the way it was created and the ideology of the system, not the bureaucracy itself.

00:55:43.000 You don't worship the power structure.

00:55:45.000 You worship the reason it was created this way.

00:55:47.000 You worship the individual sovereignty and the local governance.

00:55:51.000 Things like that.

00:55:51.000 That's love of country in this country.

00:55:54.000 And, of course, you don't always love every country's behavior, but you do love this one, at least I do.

00:55:58.000 I love the opportunity.

00:55:59.000 I love the ability to own your own land and to defend it.

00:56:04.000 And cheesesteaks are great, too.

00:56:05.000 Oh, they're amazing, man.

00:56:06.000 We got good food here.

00:56:08.000 And, you know, the Italian immigrants, they come here and they make pizza.

00:56:13.000 Immigration, the melting pot, when we have it in order, is so valuable.

00:56:19.000 The cultural cohesion.

00:56:21.000 It was when people came here and said, I want to be an American.

00:56:24.000 And the challenge we face now is people come here saying, I don't care about America, I want.

00:56:28.000 Yeah.

00:56:28.000 So if, you know, they always try to play this in the media that, oh, it's, you know, they're racists.

00:56:35.000 They just don't like that they're Haitian migrants. 1.00

00:56:37.000 And you go and hear what the people of Springfield have to say, and they're like, we don't care if they're Haitian. 0.99

00:56:41.000 They're just not coming to our... like they're not learning to break bread 0.57

00:56:45.000 with us. They're not learning about how we live our lives.

00:56:46.000 They don't understand our culture. They don't know how to drive cars.

00:56:49.000 They were like, you know, if there was one woman interviewed, I think it was on Fox News,

00:56:53.000 she's like, if we brought in a handful of these Haitian migrants and they were coming to our churches and our

00:56:57.000 stores and everything, we'd welcome them with open arms. But

00:57:00.000 15,000 all at once and they don't know how to drive. They don't care for our customs, our ways, our... 0.89

00:57:05.000 how we do things. They're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs.

00:57:09.000 Exactly.

00:57:09.000 I still can't believe that they're trying to maintain in the media that it's not true when Chris Rufo already published a video from over a year ago.

00:57:17.000 He found a video on social media from over a year ago of migrants in the Congo cooking cats on a grill.

00:57:24.000 So whether it's in Springfield or somewhere else, these kind of things happen.

00:57:29.000 But I digress.

00:57:30.000 The issue is not, in my opinion, that they're eating cats.

00:57:34.000 We get alarmed with it.

00:57:35.000 That's a surface-level issue.

00:57:37.000 The cats on the grill video that went viral represents that they're not integrating with American culture and society.

00:57:45.000 In the microcosmic metaphor, you'd have like six dudes in a room playing magic cards, and then a guy is let in to the room, and you're like, hey, we're playing magic cards.

00:57:54.000 And he's like, oh, want to learn?

00:57:55.000 He comes in.

00:57:56.000 He's the immigrant.

00:57:57.000 He sits down.

00:57:58.000 He spends some time.

00:57:58.000 He learns magic.

00:57:59.000 Then the next three guys come in.

00:58:00.000 We're like, hey, guys, want to learn magic?

00:58:02.000 There's seven of us.

00:58:02.000 Now there's 10 of us that know how to play magic.

00:58:05.000 But what's happening when people are surging across the border is there's six of us in a room playing magic, and then 50 people come into the room.

00:58:10.000 And they're all milling around. It's disorganized, they're yelling. We're like,

00:58:14.000 hey, want to learn cards? And they're like sitting at the table with us. And they're like,

00:58:18.000 some people are laying on the, and it's so much so fast.

00:58:20.000 And he grabs one of the cards and he's like, hey, look at this.

00:58:22.000 It's firewood. We can use this to make fire. And you're like, oh my God, it's too much too fast.

00:58:28.000 We need to slow.

00:58:29.000 And we lose our cultural identity as a result of it. Right.

00:58:31.000 And I think that's, that's the kind of the funny thing about what you

00:58:34.000 earlier pointed.

00:58:35.000 It's like they were saying, oh, why are all these foreigners like nationalists or, you know, they're obviously immigrants or whatever.

00:58:41.000 It's because they came here and they assimilated. 0.88

00:58:42.000 They realized that they were now Americans and they were now going to be fighting for the interests of the American people.

00:58:48.000 I was told this story by an older family member who said that when she came, she's very old, Italian immigrants, her parents wouldn't teach her how to speak Italian.

00:58:59.000 They said, you will learn English and you will be an American.

00:59:02.000 And I think Americans appreciate it, and they like that.

00:59:04.000 Legal immigration, economically viable, the people can come here and learn, they can get jobs, they can fill these roles at factories and where jobs are needed, but they try to fit in and respect what we have and what we built.

00:59:19.000 I like your analogy, Ian.

00:59:21.000 I think making it about magic is a little silly, but it makes a point.

00:59:24.000 That was a selfish thing for me.

00:59:25.000 But it's, you know, you and your friends are playing a board game and 50 people come in with beers and they're screaming and yelling and they're shaking beers all over the place.

00:59:34.000 You're like, guys, we were having a quiet game night and now you're screaming.

00:59:38.000 And they're like, shut up. 0.72

00:59:39.000 It's our house now. 0.99

00:59:40.000 You're going to have a problem with that.

00:59:42.000 That's where we are.

00:59:43.000 Let's jump to the story from the New York Times.

00:59:46.000 Alex Jones's Info Wars will be auctioned off to pay Sandy Hook families.

00:59:51.000 It's interesting because there's different families in different suits.

00:59:54.000 One group out of Texas wanted to keep garnishing the revenue of InfoWars so they'd make money, and the Connecticut family said, nope, sell it all off, shut it down.

01:00:06.000 And now they're actually fighting amongst each other, I guess according to the New York Times, as to how they're going to divvy up the money.

01:00:11.000 But the reports are, come November, InfoWars is done.

01:00:17.000 Mid-November auction.

01:00:19.000 The crazy thing about this is, I can't imagine that someone's going to want to buy out InfoWars products to help him.

01:00:29.000 You should buy it.

01:00:30.000 Why?

01:00:31.000 To own all the IP and give it back to him?

01:00:33.000 And then they'll seize it again, because he owes a billion dollars.

01:00:35.000 You can't buy it for him.

01:00:37.000 Any money you give to him will go to pay off the settlement.

01:00:41.000 Could you buy it and make him an employee?

01:00:45.000 Then you'll get sued.

01:00:47.000 What about buying it and giving it to a trust that you set up?

01:00:50.000 No, the scenario that I imagine happening, of which I imagine it's going to be some 20-year-old kid with an LLC and no net worth, will start a company and then he'll film Alex Jones on his phone.

01:01:01.000 That's what's going to happen after the sale is Alex will just keep going.

01:01:04.000 And all Rob do and everybody involved with the company, they'll just keep going and keep making stuff.

01:01:08.000 I've heard part of it is that they're trying to go after his personal social media account too.

01:01:12.000 Is that true?

01:01:13.000 Absolutely.

01:01:14.000 New York Times said that they're going to try and auction off his social media accounts.

01:01:17.000 You can't do that.

01:01:18.000 He doesn't own those accounts.

01:01:20.000 Look at this.

01:01:21.000 The auction set for mid-November includes the website and the social media accounts.

01:01:25.000 They can't do it.

01:01:26.000 You will never take Alex Jones' ex-account away from him.

01:01:29.000 Because it's owned by Elon Musk.

01:01:30.000 There's like an InfoWars one.

01:01:32.000 I could understand how that's business affiliated, but if he created one for himself a long time ago, how can you suddenly say, this is business property so therefore we must sell it?

01:01:40.000 Not even the InfoWars account.

01:01:41.000 They all belong to Elon.

01:01:43.000 And Elon determines who's allowed to use it.

01:01:46.000 And if they say, nope, we want to grant access to someone else, Elon just says, no.

01:01:50.000 It's my account.

01:01:51.000 I'm letting Alex use it.

01:01:52.000 That's how it works.

01:01:53.000 So there's nothing they can do.

01:01:55.000 His show will always be on X. That platform is something that can never be taken away from him.

01:02:01.000 And he gets hundreds of thousands of hits on his streams, broadcasts, and spaces.

01:02:07.000 Has Elon commented on it?

01:02:08.000 I've only seen like a parody account response.

01:02:10.000 I haven't seen anything.

01:02:12.000 But it's pretty wild that they're trying to end InfoWars, which they can't.

01:02:19.000 They can't take the account.

01:02:20.000 I mean, it'll be interesting, because they could take the trademark, right?

01:02:22.000 Yeah.

01:02:23.000 And then whoever buys it can sue Alex Jones for using InfoWars.

01:02:27.000 And they can delete all the content.

01:02:30.000 Not from X. Not from X, no.

01:02:32.000 They can delete it all from the InfoWars servers.

01:02:34.000 But are they just backing it up elsewhere now, or is that illegal?

01:02:36.000 That's only if they bought the servers.

01:02:38.000 They could file a copyright claim against him if he uses the InfoWars trademark on anything.

01:02:42.000 So basically, they're trying to prevent any past InfoWars IP from being seen publicly again?

01:02:47.000 Yeah, I feel like that is the goal, right?

01:02:49.000 Like, it's to delete InfoWars from the internet if possible.

01:02:53.000 Not that it necessarily will be.

01:02:55.000 And again, part of that is because a lot of it relies on Alex Jones himself.

01:02:58.000 I mean, it's not just him.

01:02:59.000 Like, we've had other InfoWars contributors on the show.

01:03:01.000 There are a lot of, like, talented—Owen Troyer.

01:03:03.000 Chase Geyser.

01:03:04.000 Yeah, Harrison.

01:03:05.000 Like, there's tons of them.

01:03:06.000 It's pretty crazy.

01:03:07.000 They're destroying a company and all of the associated jobs and all of the contract work that goes along with it because of what one person did.

01:03:14.000 Some guy did damage to these families and now they're going to do damage to all these other families in response.

01:03:20.000 It's like, geez, dude.

01:03:21.000 Do you need retribution or do you just want this resolved?

01:03:24.000 There's a janitor right now going, why am I getting fired?

01:03:27.000 It's like, well, because Alex Jones said things that this family found damaging and they sued him, and now because Alex Jones is paying personally and business-wise, you don't get to have a job anymore.

01:03:37.000 That's kind of crazy to me.

01:03:38.000 Like, the company is bigger than Alex Jones.

01:03:40.000 There's other people who speak there.

01:03:42.000 The idea that they're going to destroy... I don't know, that just seems nuts to me.

01:03:46.000 It's an eye for an eye makes the world blind.

01:03:48.000 It's not an eye for an eye.

01:03:49.000 That's the philosophy.

01:03:50.000 Someone harms you and you harm them back?

01:03:51.000 That's not justice, man.

01:03:53.000 This is not an eye for an eye.

01:03:54.000 Alex Jones, I could argue if they said we're going after Alex personally, but to take Owen Schroer's job?

01:04:00.000 Why?

01:04:01.000 What did he say about them?

01:04:02.000 Was he named in these suits?

01:04:03.000 I don't know.

01:04:03.000 Maybe he was.

01:04:04.000 I don't think he was.

01:04:05.000 So going after the company itself to end the jobs of, like I mentioned, some of these people who work there are just security guards or janitors.

01:04:13.000 Why are they going to lose their jobs over this?

01:04:15.000 If you've got a problem with it, I mean, Alex Jones said the liability should be on Alex Jones.

01:04:19.000 I get it, I guess.

01:04:21.000 This is what bankruptcy protection was supposed to be for, but they denied it.

01:04:29.000 You're a contractor who doesn't work for InfoWars, but you've got a monthly contract to check the lights and make sure the electricity is working, and now you're going to your wife and being like, we're not going to be able to make the bills this month, I've got to find some new clients.

01:04:40.000 It's just insane.

01:04:41.000 Is this what happened to Gawker?

01:04:43.000 Like, similar?

01:04:45.000 When Peter Thiel sued them?

01:04:47.000 Like, did they have to shut down?

01:04:48.000 They never shut down.

01:04:49.000 Okay, gotcha.

01:04:50.000 Well, actually, I think they got sold.

01:04:53.000 And then they were, yeah, Gawker.

01:04:54.000 They weren't auctioned off, okay.

01:04:55.000 I can't remember exactly how it went down.

01:04:57.000 They lost all their money, and then they ended up selling to pay for, you know, over that.

01:05:03.000 Gotcha.

01:05:03.000 But the Gawker media brands, I believe, still exist to this day.

01:05:07.000 Oh, wow.

01:05:08.000 And that's the thing.

01:05:09.000 Bankruptcy protection is like, okay, You've been sued.

01:05:13.000 You're liable for these damages.

01:05:15.000 The company needs to keep running.

01:05:16.000 People need to keep their jobs.

01:05:17.000 So there's going to be some kind of like restructuring or payment plan.

01:05:21.000 Instead, they're like, nah, just burn it all down.

01:05:23.000 And again, I think this has to do like when we talk about the people who will lose for like not not even just the host, but you're totally right that the janitors, a security guard, like whoever works there, and that is just their job.

01:05:36.000 They'll pay the price for this, but I think there are factions of both, you know, the government and sort of the people who are against Jones who said, well, you shouldn't, you deserve this too, because you shouldn't work for someone like that.

01:05:45.000 He is so bad that anyone affiliated with him deserves to suffer.

01:05:49.000 And that's the level of, to me, that rises to political persecution that is unwarranted.

01:05:55.000 I mean, there are people who will pay the consequences for something that they did not have anything to do with other than they eventually worked for the same company.

01:06:02.000 Dude, reparations is not that you go burn the arsonist's house down.

01:06:07.000 He pays retribution for burning the house down.

01:06:11.000 He might serve prison time if he serves his sentence.

01:06:13.000 You don't go and destroy his property.

01:06:17.000 Maybe there's arguments that you seize the property?

01:06:19.000 I guess.

01:06:20.000 Maybe.

01:06:23.000 It does seem strange, too, that there was so much money and it was like, OK, well, then if you want that much money, then you should probably keep the business open so it can generate revenue to pay that off.

01:06:32.000 And it said they obviously had something else in mind.

01:06:34.000 They were like, no, destroy company, sell.

01:06:37.000 To me, it seems like they're obviously never going to get the amount that the court ordered him to pay.

01:06:43.000 It sounds, I don't know, it sounds personal that they want to harm him.

01:06:47.000 And that's really not the purpose of the settlement is to harm the guy.

01:06:50.000 It's for him to repair what he's done.

01:06:52.000 And I don't know.

01:06:55.000 But maybe there are for them.

01:06:56.000 It's like you also have to be destroyed.

01:06:58.000 That's the only way we'll feel better about this.

01:06:59.000 That's just not the way the legal system works in the United States.

01:07:02.000 I don't think it should be how it works.

01:07:03.000 But you know, I can't say that that is not how people feel about it.

01:07:07.000 I think it shows the ruthlessness of the left, too, and I think it really speaks to the stakes of this election.

01:07:12.000 You know, if we do not win this election in November, if Donald Trump is not re-elected and returns to the White House, I think there is a very real chance that conservatives in this country become second-class citizens.

01:07:24.000 Right.

01:07:25.000 Continue to be.

01:07:27.000 Because they have shown just a complete lack of restraint when it comes to weaponizing every single lever of government against us.

01:07:33.000 They are completely okay with subjugating us.

01:07:35.000 And honestly, conservatives are not okay with doing it back.

01:07:39.000 I'm the type to say, you know, I know Michelle Obama, she said, when they go low, we go high.

01:07:44.000 When they go low, we go lower.

01:07:45.000 That's my position these days, because we have seen that the left knows that we will not fight back against them on their own terms, on their own turf, and because of that, that is why they do things like this.

01:07:56.000 That is why they, you know, criminalize, you know, free speech.

01:07:59.000 It's why they kick people off of X, and all these things are attempted to in a previous time.

01:08:04.000 It's why they attack people's livelihoods for simply vocalizing viewpoints that they disagree with because they know that we won't fight back with the same zeal and passion that they do.

01:08:13.000 It's unfortunate.

01:08:15.000 I don't, I personally am not of that mindset.

01:08:17.000 I mean, maybe there is a place for going lower than the enemy.

01:08:21.000 I mean, in war, you have to.

01:08:23.000 If you're literally at war, if they're using dirty, evil, destructive tactics, you have to become more evil, dirty, and destructive to survive.

01:08:31.000 But in civil reality, you're supposed to overcome.

01:08:35.000 But is it civil anymore, do you think?

01:08:37.000 If we say no, it will become war.

01:08:40.000 And so I want it to be civil, so I say it is civil.

01:08:43.000 And I treat it like it's civil, but... And hopefully the next generation will see the error of the ways and maintain civility.

01:08:51.000 That's my hope.

01:08:54.000 I think it's really hard because I get what you're saying, and I do think that there is a level of, like, there needs to be a little more fire and creativity in how the, you know, conservative aspects of the country respond to the attacks.

01:09:07.000 On the other hand, you know, I fear a race to the bottom, and I think ultimately we want a unified country that is Strong and so to me that that it's so much it's hard because you need this cultural shift.

01:09:21.000 You need people who don't you know, who would say I'll never vote Republican and you know, they are the people who leave the Thanksgiving table.

01:09:28.000 They don't want to talk to them to come to a realization that the weaponization of the legal system against one bent of ideology meaning more conservative.

01:09:38.000 Yeah.

01:09:38.000 is wrong and it ultimately backfires on them as well.

01:09:42.000 It's not good for our country as a strong nation and we want to live in a strong nation.

01:09:48.000 But yeah, I definitely, but I see what you mean.

01:09:52.000 We can't just go on where it's like there are all these huge efforts to stop any kind

01:09:58.000 of conservative movements, whether it's Trump or whether it's school choice initiatives

01:10:03.000 or anything.

01:10:05.000 And in response, there's no sort of offense is coming from.

01:10:09.000 Yeah, you can sort of, if someone's trying to undermine you, you can go around it rather than go under them.

01:10:15.000 So there are ways to alter the system by behaving in a way, unforeseen, that kind of bypasses their attempt to play dirty, where it's like they're undermining something that they thought was there, but by the time they dig under the walls, you've settled in a different location, and they come up and they're like, where's the guy we're trying to harm?

01:10:36.000 It's a way of focusing energy that might be more valuable and might end up bringing more community to a healthier place.

01:10:45.000 Yeah.

01:10:45.000 I'm curious to see, because I think, to your point, for them to actually, I think, come to the realization that they don't want it to get that bad, first, I think it unfortunately has to get that bad, right?

01:10:55.000 It has to blow up in their face.

01:10:57.000 It has to be like, okay, we don't want to be treated the way that we've treated them.

01:11:03.000 I think that we have to get to that point before we can get to the point and the reality that I think we all want to live in is to your point where we can be united.

01:11:10.000 But I think that there is too many people on their side right now, unfortunately, who don't want unity.

01:11:14.000 I think to the poll that Tim cited earlier about how 28% of the country believe that, or 28% of Democrats believe that Trump should be dead is emblematic of that.

01:11:25.000 That the country would be better off. 0.95

01:11:26.000 Yeah, better off if he was dead. 0.98

01:11:27.000 Yeah, that's terrifying. 0.98

01:11:29.000 I haven't seen the poll.

01:11:30.000 Was it like 1,000 people?

01:11:31.000 Was it 100,000 people?

01:11:35.000 Let me pull this up.

01:11:36.000 This is a big deal.

01:11:39.000 It's a big percent, but sometimes it's a small segment of people, and they might be very twisted people that they polled.

01:11:44.000 RMG Research.

01:11:48.000 Sometimes it comes out on a day of the week when people are just feeling hot because it's something- And I've heard pollsters refute this saying, well like, oh no, it's actually- 1,000 registered voters.

01:11:55.000 1,000 people.

01:11:56.000 I mean, I think one of the challenges is the fact that this is a conversation people are having at all, right?

01:12:02.000 Like, there was a time in America where You know, we would get these polls that said they would rather their kids marry someone of a different political party than of a different religion, right?

01:12:13.000 There were things outside of politics that gave us identity and purpose and values that kind of helped weave American culture as broad as it is together.

01:12:23.000 And now I think you see, number one, People are not as religious and they are not really participating in other social groups.

01:12:30.000 You know, people don't – this is famous, like people don't go to bowling leagues or book clubs.

01:12:34.000 There's like – volunteerism is down.

01:12:36.000 But on top of that, people look at their political identity as the be-all and end-all of anything and it's a litmus test for how you view your neighbors, right?

01:12:44.000 Like if your neighbor is Republican and you're progressive, then they want to harm you.

01:12:49.000 They are a threat.

01:12:50.000 Even though that's not true, right?

01:12:52.000 You just agree on things differently.

01:12:54.000 And ultimately, at one point, political parties had the objective, like, had the goal of being like, here is our common values as Americans.

01:13:01.000 How do we achieve them?

01:13:02.000 We offer different solutions.

01:13:03.000 But that's not modern American politics.

01:13:05.000 That's not the way the party systems work.

01:13:07.000 And so there is this...

01:13:08.000 battling cultures, where one is saying, well, we want this thing, and the other one is saying,

01:13:12.000 we actually don't want you to be here at all. And it's very difficult to work through because

01:13:17.000 if they just don't want you here, but you're still making space for them,

01:13:21.000 then they're going to eventually push you off the cliff.

01:13:23.000 Yeah. Sort of like the pressure of the system is building, maybe because of the printing of money,

01:13:28.000 and people feel like, yo, my kimchi is $8 now, or my head of lettuce is $2.99 when it used to be $1.25.

01:13:35.000 My carrots are $4 instead of $1.80.

01:13:36.000 And so the pressure is building, therefore things are moving faster within the system and the thoughts are moving quicker.

01:13:43.000 So if some people have little disagreements, they move very quickly.

01:13:47.000 Do you think it's economic pressure or do you think it's the 24-hour news cycle?

01:13:51.000 I'm wondering, that's what I was wondering, is it a combination of the economics speeding people's thoughts up and making them like very, very, very, and then the news comes in and just little, like if you're driving really fast, really fast on the road and you turn the wheel a little, the car goes crazy to the left because you're going so fast.

01:14:06.000 If you're going slow, you barely move and you have time to readjust.

01:14:10.000 So the media comes in, the media, certain media organizations will come in and just tweak people's thoughts.

01:14:16.000 But because everyone's pressurized from the economic burden, which I do think is a big part of it, is the economic problem right now, their thoughts go crazy sideways.

01:14:27.000 And that's it.

01:14:27.000 Hopefully we can bring the pressure down by cooling off the economic structure by enhancing our energy systems.

01:14:32.000 I hear you, but I got bad news from the Daily Mail.

01:14:36.000 Hooters sparks fears of mass closures as chain takes drastic action over huge debts.

01:14:42.000 Hooters, known for scantily clad waitresses, is the latest American restaurant chain facing financial problems.

01:14:47.000 Bosses at the chain are in urgent talks with lenders and advisors as they try to address $300 million of debts.

01:14:55.000 Wow.

01:14:56.000 I thought it was known for its really good food.

01:14:57.000 They shuttered 40 underperforming restaurants.

01:15:00.000 I checked.

01:15:00.000 There's no Hooters by us.

01:15:02.000 You gotta drive about 40 minutes.

01:15:04.000 We're- Find a Hooters.

01:15:05.000 Really?

01:15:05.000 Yeah, we're in a Hooters desert.

01:15:07.000 Hooters, are we?

01:15:08.000 We're in a Hooters desert.

01:15:09.000 That's unfortunate.

01:15:10.000 Where is the lobby for Congress on this?

01:15:12.000 Where are you gonna get good wings around here if you don't have a Hooters around? 1.00

01:15:15.000 So I looked at pictures.

01:15:17.000 It actually does look like their wings are good.

01:15:19.000 Did they change the recipe?

01:15:20.000 Maybe they changed the recipe to high fructose.

01:15:22.000 Is Buffalo Wild Wings pushing them out?

01:15:24.000 We're like, hey, we've got TVs and also wings.

01:15:27.000 You don't need those scantily clad waitresses. 1.00

01:15:29.000 See, I will say, look at these pictures, though.

01:15:31.000 I think they're getting a lot more conservative with their outfits here.

01:15:35.000 They look the exact same, what do you mean?

01:15:37.000 I didn't see any fake boobs.

01:15:40.000 Maybe I am, and I just don't realize it. 0.91

01:15:42.000 There was a story a while ago of a guy who applied for a job at Hooters and claimed it was sexist, that they only hire women.

01:15:48.000 And so the response from Hooters was like, you're hired.

01:15:51.000 And the guy didn't want to do it.

01:15:53.000 Because he'd have to wear the same outfit and the pants and pull them up.

01:15:55.000 They were like, yeah, you can work here.

01:15:57.000 And he was like, I don't want to work here.

01:16:00.000 So, you know, I'm half-kidding bringing this up, but this is big news.

01:16:03.000 A major chain is suffering in massive debt, and they're looking at—they've already shuttered 40 locations, and now they may shut down many, many more.

01:16:10.000 The economy is not doing well.

01:16:12.000 I'm flabbergasted—I say flabbergasted—that the Democrats are saying that there's no recession, the economy's better than ever.

01:16:18.000 People are suffering.

01:16:20.000 We've got—the LL Flooring is talking about shutting down.

01:16:24.000 Who else was it?

01:16:25.000 A bunch of—there's Home Depot said they missed their profit targets, which is a big deal.

01:16:29.000 Hooters?

01:16:30.000 What are their chains worth?

01:16:31.000 I mean, you've got Targets and Walgreens.

01:16:32.000 Red Lobster.

01:16:33.000 Red Lobster?

01:16:34.000 Oh, looks like Hooters was just acquired in 2019 by Nord Bay Capital and Triartisan Capital. 0.99

01:16:40.000 Well, that sucks. 0.86

01:16:40.000 They didn't see COVID coming, did they? 0.86

01:16:42.000 Wow, yeah.

01:16:42.000 COVID rocked brick and mortar.

01:16:45.000 But this is happening right now.

01:16:46.000 It wasn't COVID that did it.

01:16:47.000 It was the government's response to it that did it.

01:16:49.000 Exactly.

01:16:49.000 We are years after the pandemic, and the Biden-Harris administration has not helped this country recover economically.

01:16:58.000 We should not be, before an election, hearing about the dock workers' strike, Boeing strikes, rail workers' strikes.

01:17:04.000 big food restaurant chains shutting down, I mean, it's bad.

01:17:08.000 And the gaslighting is even more insane.

01:17:10.000 The fact that they can look you in your face and say, everything's going well.

01:17:13.000 The economy is in such good shape.

01:17:14.000 I know that to be a lie.

01:17:16.000 Every time I walk into a grocery store, I know that to be a lie.

01:17:19.000 Every time I fill up my gas tank. 0.98

01:17:20.000 So to sit there and look in our faces and play us like we're dumb and say, 0.50

01:17:24.000 everything's good, the economy is stronger than it's ever been before, 0.95

01:17:28.000 stronger than it was under Donald Trump is just frankly insulting.

01:17:31.000 And I think demeaning to the intelligence of the American people, but also to it's like the these like things that they are doing to create this facade, like, you know, lowering and cutting interest rates right before the election to give this impression that inflation is going down, the economy is on the resurgence.

01:17:47.000 It is truly, I think it really goes to show how they see, you know, the intelligence, and then how they view a majority of the American people.

01:17:54.000 And look at this.

01:17:55.000 You know, huge news from a couple weeks ago.

01:17:57.000 Kevin Hart's burger chain shut down all locations.

01:18:01.000 And I can't imagine why.

01:18:02.000 The vegan fast food chain, co-founded by Kevin Hart, just shut down.

01:18:07.000 Oh, you gotta have a vegan option.

01:18:08.000 You can't go only vegan, Kevin.

01:18:09.000 Kevin Hart vegan?

01:18:10.000 I did not know that BurgerFi was a vegan joint.

01:18:13.000 Either way, though.

01:18:14.000 It is?

01:18:15.000 What?

01:18:16.000 That's what it says.

01:18:17.000 BurgerFi? 0.90

01:18:17.000 Is that the name of it? 0.90

01:18:18.000 I don't know.

01:18:19.000 Yesterday, BurgerFi announced it filed for bankruptcy.

01:18:20.000 No, no.

01:18:21.000 It did, but it's not.

01:18:23.000 His is Hart House.

01:18:24.000 His is Hart House?

01:18:25.000 Yeah, Hart House.

01:18:25.000 Oh, OK.

01:18:26.000 My bad, my bad.

01:18:27.000 So Hart House is OK?

01:18:27.000 No, it's gone.

01:18:29.000 But BurgerFi is also filed for bankruptcy.

01:18:32.000 Wow.

01:18:32.000 BurgerFi is gone.

01:18:34.000 Red Lobster, or BurgerFi's 10 big names filed bankruptcy this year.

01:18:39.000 It is sad to see.

01:18:41.000 We should be in an economy that's so good, even vegan burger joints do well.

01:18:45.000 I think there's a difference between saying, kind of along what you were saying, CJ, how we're being gaslit, that everything's fine.

01:18:50.000 There's a difference between saying, we're going to be okay, and here's why, as opposed to, everything's fine, don't worry.

01:18:56.000 That's like that meme of the dog sitting in the burning house going, everything's fine.

01:19:00.000 Like, no, everything's not fine, but it is going to be okay, and here's why.

01:19:03.000 We're going to revolutionize our industry systems, our electronic systems, our electricity systems.

01:19:07.000 We're going to do it.

01:19:08.000 So we're going to be OK.

01:19:09.000 But it's not fine right now.

01:19:10.000 We have the right leadership though, right?

01:19:11.000 I mean, this is part of it.

01:19:13.000 If you're looking at the election right now and one person is saying, like, things are not OK, but we can make them better.

01:19:19.000 To me, that's good.

01:19:20.000 I would pick that route.

01:19:21.000 Or you have someone who won't give you very many specifics and who is part of the current problem and who sort of goes back and forth between we've accomplished so much.

01:19:30.000 I won't say that I'm part of this administration, but also I'm gonna make everything better because I'm changing the underdog.

01:19:35.000 I mean, to me, that is gaslighting still, and I don't want another four years to go.

01:19:40.000 Yeah, you need a leader that is inspiring people and giving them hope with a plan, a real plan, that's saying, it's gonna be okay and here's why. 0.94

01:19:46.000 You need that, otherwise people are all gonna fucking destroy themselves.

01:19:50.000 Like, you need hope, but you don't want a gaslighter that's just telling you it's okay when it's not. 0.86

01:19:55.000 Yeah.

01:19:55.000 And I think Tim Walz, you know, he may not tell the truth about a lot of things, including his military service and the name of his dog, but he told the truth.

01:20:02.000 The name of his dog?

01:20:03.000 Yeah.

01:20:03.000 He lied about the name of the birthday of his dog.

01:20:06.000 It came out like shortly after he was picked.

01:20:08.000 He lied about how he makes tacos.

01:20:10.000 Yeah.

01:20:10.000 Yeah, he didn't like Spice because he wanted to play this caricature of white people.

01:20:16.000 But he was telling the truth the other day when he said that we cannot endure four more years of this.

01:20:21.000 And he's exactly right.

01:20:22.000 We cannot endure four more years of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden's policies.

01:20:27.000 And you're right.

01:20:27.000 It's not just about leadership.

01:20:28.000 It's about someone actually having a plan.

01:20:30.000 And as President Trump said, Kamala Harris doesn't have a plan. 1.00

01:20:33.000 It's Biden's plan.

01:20:34.000 It's just like four lines.

01:20:35.000 It's run, spot, run.

01:20:37.000 Yeah, the most offensive thing I've ever heard in politics was Tim Waltz acting like he doesn't spice his food. 0.98

01:20:42.000 Because white people are notorious for going to war and massacring people for spices. 0.97

01:20:47.000 Black pepper. 0.99

01:20:48.000 Yeah, black peppercorn.

01:20:49.000 It was just like, how many untold thousands died?

01:20:52.000 Because they were like, I want pepper on my food!

01:20:55.000 And I think it's gross to play racial caricatures, right?

01:20:58.000 Like, we wouldn't want anyone to do this.

01:21:01.000 Why would it be okay if Tim Walz decides to be this, like, derpy white guy to somehow make, what, Kamala Harris look better?

01:21:07.000 I'm telling you now, you can't. 0.95

01:21:09.000 She is- Or to make him look more white to subdue her blackness, which... 0.99

01:21:14.000 Isn't that an acceptance of racism in that case? 0.77

01:21:17.000 Acknowledging that, oh, our candidate's too black, which, you know, jury's out on that one according to Janet Jackson, but our candidate's too black, so we need to make him look extra white to make her more palatable to the American people. 0.96

01:21:28.000 It's actually crazy. 0.95

01:21:29.000 What did he do?

01:21:30.000 JetGPT says the rough estimate for how many died during the, what do they call it, the age of exploration over spice routes was in the tens of thousands.

01:21:41.000 Wow.

01:21:42.000 Tens of thousands of people were killed over spice routes.

01:21:45.000 I mean, it must have displaced and destroyed communities untold.

01:21:48.000 Oh, yeah.

01:21:49.000 I mean, white folks want to spice their food. 0.86

01:21:51.000 So next time they say that white people do not like spice on their foods, I'm gonna share that style. 1.00

01:21:55.000 It's good for your cardio, cardiovascular system, and that'll strengthen your veins.

01:21:59.000 You ever go buy saffron at the grocery store?

01:22:01.000 Yeah.

01:22:02.000 It's like the normal spice jar, but then inside is a tiny little tube with a very little bit of it.

01:22:06.000 Yeah, it's apparently the most expensive spice on earth, I think, saffron.

01:22:09.000 Ooh, it's delicious.

01:22:10.000 It's powerful, too.

01:22:10.000 What do you put it in?

01:22:11.000 I don't even know.

01:22:11.000 You just crumble a little in your fingers and put it in anything, and it's gonna taste like a stew.

01:22:16.000 Put it in savory things, it's very, very good.

01:22:19.000 And you'll smell it on your fingers for, maybe not days, but a little bit goes a long way with saffron.

01:22:24.000 Just don't put it on your fingers and then stick your finger in a cow's mouth. 0.99

01:22:26.000 Well, unless the cow wants the saffron. 0.85

01:22:29.000 Oh, okay, that makes sense.

01:22:29.000 And maybe you can work something out.

01:22:31.000 That makes sense.

01:22:31.000 But my question is, what did Tim Waltz say about eating spice?

01:22:34.000 I didn't hear.

01:22:34.000 He said, he was like, I just eat white guy tacos.

01:22:37.000 And then Kamal's like, what is that?

01:22:39.000 Tuna and mayonnaise?

01:22:40.000 And he's like, just beef and cheese.

01:22:41.000 And she's like, do you spice it?

01:22:42.000 And he's like, no.

01:22:44.000 But he's got an award-winning taco casserole with cayenne pepper and garlic.

01:22:49.000 And he said, no, the spiciest thing in Minnesota is black pepper.

01:22:56.000 You want to be like, so you're bringing everyone down with you? 0.98

01:22:59.000 I mean, I feel like you are making a fool of yourself. 0.98

01:23:04.000 For no reason. 0.99

01:23:05.000 Excuse me, beclowning himself. 0.91

01:23:06.000 He is quite, he's definitely beclowning himself. 0.55

01:23:08.000 What a great word.

01:23:10.000 And I just, I think that this is like an ode to what we would have in the future.

01:23:16.000 I mean, it's a really divisive racial way of looking at the world.

01:23:19.000 And look, if that's your thing, I'm glad you're being honest about it, but I don't think that that's how Americans want to evaluate their neighbors, right?

01:23:28.000 Like, I don't think that they want to be like, well, I'm going to judge you by goofy stereotypes and you should play to them so I feel comfortable.

01:23:33.000 It's satirical at this point, right?

01:23:35.000 You have Kamala Harris who's trying to act like she's so black these days. 1.00

01:23:38.000 She's saying she's washing her collard greens in a bathtub.

01:23:41.000 But frankly, I've been black all 22 years of my life.

01:23:44.000 I've never washed collard greens in a bathtub.

01:23:46.000 I don't know anyone who washes collard greens in a bathtub.

01:23:48.000 And it's the craziest thing.

01:23:49.000 And she goes out and she does that interview at the BET where she says, I've been out here in these streets.

01:23:54.000 Ma'am, you have a Secret Service detail.

01:23:56.000 You're not out in the streets.

01:23:57.000 You live at the Naval Observatory. 0.80

01:23:59.000 And I think, like, this type of pandering is frankly disgusting. 0.98

01:24:02.000 It's demeaning the intelligence of black Americans. 1.00

01:24:04.000 It's demeaning the intelligence of all Americans. 0.63

01:24:07.000 And then you have, you know, Tim Walz talking about his bland tacos, which aren't even bland.

01:24:11.000 You know, we learn, like, season them up with sriracha.

01:24:14.000 It's crazy.

01:24:15.000 That's... I just... I can't.

01:24:17.000 Because, you know...

01:24:19.000 If there's one thing you can accuse white people of doing, it's going to war over making food taste good. 0.96

01:24:24.000 And now they want to play up this caricature of doofy white people who can't put spice on their food? 0.97

01:24:28.000 What are we talking about? 0.93

01:24:29.000 There's salt and pepper on every table.

01:24:32.000 Yeah.

01:24:33.000 Tim Walz is the most manufactured person, though, I think I've ever seen.

01:24:38.000 Oh, he's like, uh, you know, this, this combat that who refused to deploy because he wanted to run for Congress.

01:24:44.000 You have this entire narrative.

01:24:46.000 He's this, this like masculine football coach.

01:24:48.000 So he's going to get all the young men to vote for him when it turns out he wasn't actually a football, like he wasn't a head football coach.

01:24:53.000 Like he is assistant coach.

01:24:55.000 Right.

01:24:56.000 Yeah.

01:24:58.000 It's insane.

01:24:58.000 We got major breaking news.

01:25:00.000 Eric Adams has been indicted in New York, the first sitting New York City mayor to face criminal charges.

01:25:07.000 What the?

01:25:08.000 What is going on?

01:25:09.000 Mayor Adams has been indicted on federal criminal charges, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

01:25:13.000 He'll be the first mayor in New York City history to be charged while in office.

01:25:15.000 The indictment is sealed.

01:25:17.000 It's unclear what the charge or charges are that he will face.

01:25:21.000 Retired police captain Mr. Adams was elected to the city's 110th mayor nearly three years ago, this we know.

01:25:27.000 Do we know anything about these indictments?

01:25:28.000 Because they were going after... They've gone after him for a couple different things.

01:25:31.000 So one is campaign finance, there's an investigation in that.

01:25:34.000 And then they're also investigating him, and I can't remember if it was exactly the same thing, for like potentially taking money from Turkey, but at least I believe five of his top officials have resigned in the past, you know, couple months.

01:25:46.000 Today, I think it was the head of the Commissioner of Schools, and then last week it was the head of the NYPD.

01:25:53.000 And so there's obviously something going on here.

01:25:56.000 I go back and forth because I do think, you know, there's corruption, right?

01:26:00.000 I think that there are people who take money in nefarious ways.

01:26:03.000 I mean, there's a reason Bob Menendez was on trial, but also Eric Adam has pushed back against the Biden administration so hard, especially when it came to the impact of illegal immigration.

01:26:12.000 He was constantly like, you are not doing enough.

01:26:15.000 And so it becomes this thing where I think there could be corruption.

01:26:19.000 On the other hand, I do believe he's someone who doesn't have any pull with the federal government right now.

01:26:25.000 Didn't AOC call for him to resign?

01:26:26.000 Yeah, earlier today.

01:26:27.000 She knew it was coming.

01:26:30.000 And the question is also too, it's like, was this corruption they were willing to ignore as long as he toed the line?

01:26:35.000 As long as he behaved and said, you know, whatever the pre-approved DNC, you know, talking points were.

01:26:41.000 And this story really is crazy. 0.82

01:26:42.000 I've been keeping up with it because like Eric Adams has always been such a meme in my head because of the fact that he is crazy.

01:26:47.000 He is so known for going out and NYC nightlife, partying until the end of the night.

01:26:52.000 And it's just He was like, veganism cured my diabetes.

01:26:54.000 Yeah, and then he said, you know, I'm the mayor of a city with a lot of nightlife, so I gotta go, and this is a quote, I need to go test the product.

01:27:02.000 And so ever since then, I've just been, yeah.

01:27:05.000 So they were attacking him for going out until like 3am, going to all the clubs and the bars.

01:27:09.000 And he's like, well, you know, I have a city with great nightlife, I gotta go test the product.

01:27:12.000 And ever since then, I've just been absolutely enamored with Eric Adams.

01:27:16.000 But yeah, he has so many people in his circle.

01:27:18.000 Is this one of the things against him?

01:27:19.000 Let's listen to what, I want to show you what she said.

01:27:21.000 Quote, I do not see how Mayor Adams can continue governing New York City.

01:27:25.000 Ocasio-Cortez said in a post on social media, the flood of resignations and vacancies are threatening government function.

01:27:30.000 Nonstop investigations will make it impossible to recruit and retain a qualified administration.

01:27:35.000 For the good of the city, he should resign.

01:27:36.000 Notice what she said, investigations.

01:27:39.000 Meaning, the feds can just come in and shut it down?

01:27:43.000 I got a little... our monitor went out while you were reading that.

01:27:45.000 Yes, Sergio.

01:27:45.000 I don't know if that's on the... if YouTube lost their image, too, or not, but can you kind of... can you explain what you just read again?

01:27:52.000 I want to... right behind you, that monitor dropped.

01:27:55.000 Say that again, but just... I don't want to make you read all that again.

01:27:57.000 She said the nonstop investigations make it impossible.

01:28:01.000 That means if there is a city official or county official or state official who defies federal government.

01:28:08.000 They need only investigate them to the point where the government shuts down and they force this person to resign.

01:28:13.000 Yeah.

01:28:14.000 Doesn't it feel like something they could say about Trump, right?

01:28:16.000 He's facing too many criminal investigations.

01:28:19.000 He's indicted over here.

01:28:20.000 He's got this.

01:28:20.000 He's really, you know, he should not be president because this has to be his main focus and he can't govern effectively.

01:28:27.000 I mean, one of the, so, and it could be wrong.

01:28:29.000 So the thing about the Ericsson case is like, it's not my main beat, but I check in on it pretty regularly because it definitely had this air, this air of escalations.

01:28:37.000 I remember when the police commissioner resigned, there was this argument that it was involved

01:28:41.000 with influence peddling because his brother is involved in a nightclub business, and I'm

01:28:48.000 not sure to what extent, but that they were given some sort of preferential treatment,

01:28:51.000 that the government was making certain deals with them.

01:28:55.000 So again, it's not exactly the same, and I don't want to just be like innocent until

01:29:01.000 proven guilty.

01:29:02.000 I don't really know what's going on.

01:29:03.000 could be corruption there but also it seems like there are so many investigations like

01:29:08.000 I totally agree with your point.

01:29:11.000 Maybe this is corruption somebody would have turned a blind eye to, except for the fact that he pushed against the Biden administration.

01:29:16.000 On the other hand, they're throwing a lot of stuff at the wall right now.

01:29:20.000 It seems like there's a lot of stuff.

01:29:22.000 It seems like they were trying to find the crime because, like, you're right, there's so many probes.

01:29:25.000 There's the one involving the NYPD commissioner, which has to deal with, you know, like, you know, if a club got a citation for staying open too late, apparently they would pay the brother who would then get his police commissioner brother to, you know, stand down.

01:29:38.000 And then there is, of course, the campaign finance probe where they're alleging that he was being illegally funded by like Turkish businessmen.

01:29:45.000 And then they expanded the probe, I believe yesterday, to include five other countries.

01:29:49.000 So it's just kind of like they were in search of a crime, more so than actually looking for anything.

01:29:54.000 But I'm curious to read the indictment when it's unsealed.

01:29:57.000 But I think the undercurrent of the story that's really interesting is that this might be the return of Andrew Cuomo, who has been actually weighing a run for mayor of New York City in the event that Eric Adams were to resign.

01:30:08.000 He's gonna be like, that guy is way worse than I was.

01:30:11.000 Look, there are a lot of Cuomo-sexuals who want to see him come back, and they'll vote for him. 0.99

01:30:15.000 Do you remember his nipple piercings? 0.94

01:30:18.000 When he was doing his daily COVID updates, he would wear his New York City polo, right? 0.96

01:30:24.000 You could very clearly see his nipple piercings. 0.97

01:30:27.000 Andrew Cuomo has nipple piercings? 0.98

01:30:30.000 I wish we had our monitor, because now's the time. 0.92

01:30:32.000 I feel like we have to fact check it.

01:30:34.000 You could see it through his white shirt.

01:30:36.000 I'm not making this up, right?

01:30:37.000 Ian, why don't you just go try and see if the cables are loose or something?

01:30:41.000 That's so crazy. 0.98

01:30:42.000 Well, Ian really wants to see nipples of Cuomo. 0.83

01:30:47.000 So the TV's on, you just got the cords behind it.

01:30:50.000 Take a look at what's going on over there.

01:30:52.000 Anyway, this is kind of wild because before they even announced the indictment, everybody knew it was coming.

01:30:57.000 Massive calls for his resignation.

01:30:58.000 Man, this is absolutely wild.

01:31:03.000 Let's see what else we got in the updates.

01:31:06.000 Do you think he will resign?

01:31:07.000 I don't know.

01:31:08.000 I guess?

01:31:10.000 I'm so curious to see what his statement is.

01:31:12.000 Is he going to be like, I pushed back against the federal government when they did all these things and whatever?

01:31:19.000 What if he goes full MAGA?

01:31:20.000 That's what I was going to say.

01:31:21.000 It's a federal indictment.

01:31:22.000 He wins.

01:31:24.000 Eric, you got to come out and you got to say, this is because you like Trump.

01:31:28.000 Trump's the best.

01:31:29.000 MAGA 2024.

01:31:31.000 And then Trump wins and you're good.

01:31:32.000 And he was a former Republican.

01:31:35.000 You know, he's coming back home.

01:31:37.000 What if he is secretly mega?

01:31:39.000 I just I have no idea what to make of this because I feel like kind of notoriously big cities are corrupt and so there's a level of like maybe some stuff but also like why is Eric Adams such a target is this you know again is Cuomo supporters want him back in office or is this actually a case where this is a bad it's it's impossible wrap your minds around and again and again like Eric Adams has done He's just such a personality.

01:32:07.000 Like, do you remember his video about, like, searching kids' rooms for drugs?

01:32:13.000 No.

01:32:14.000 He has done so many weird- There was one press conference where, like, something went on with, like, the city garbage unit and he was like, Wheeling a garbage can to the curb?

01:32:24.000 Oh my god, yes.

01:32:24.000 He, like, called all the press to, like, watch him wheel this garbage can.

01:32:28.000 And there's the one about the rats. 0.87

01:32:29.000 He's like, the rats don't, like, it's, it's incredible.

01:32:32.000 Like, he, he is a character.

01:32:34.000 He's a character.

01:32:34.000 But yeah, I do, I am curious to see what he does do from here.

01:32:38.000 He's kind of Trumpian in a lot of ways.

01:32:40.000 So I could see him kind of not resigning and saying he's going to fight the man and give it to the system.

01:32:45.000 I don't know when he's up for re-election.

01:32:46.000 I think it's actually in 2025 in New York City.

01:32:48.000 I think he's in for a little bit.

01:32:50.000 I think he is.

01:32:50.000 Yeah, so.

01:32:51.000 You can ride it out.

01:32:55.000 I think this is one of the more interesting cases and again I think there is Maybe – it's so hard to wrap your mind around it, but maybe there is a level of using this as an example to say, like, no, look, we go after Democrats, too.

01:33:13.000 I mean, he is the Democratic mayor of, what, America's largest city?

01:33:17.000 Yeah.

01:33:18.000 And therefore he is more influential than a lot of mayors.

01:33:21.000 He commands a large budget.

01:33:23.000 The things that happen in New York can impact policies in a lot of other places.

01:33:28.000 Maybe this is just to sort of prove that there is fairness in our justice system?

01:33:33.000 Yeah.

01:33:33.000 I don't know.

01:33:34.000 That seems simplistic, but... But the commonality among the Democrats they seem to go after are people who have been critical of Biden's administration or his handling of certain things.

01:33:43.000 Even Menendez was critical of the Biden administration at certain points, you know, relating to foreign policy.

01:33:48.000 You know, Eric Adams, as you said, you know, when it came to immigration, he was definitely a critic there.

01:33:54.000 I don't know.

01:33:55.000 I don't know if it completely assuages people's concerns about the weaponization.

01:33:58.000 It looks like they're just going out with one more casualty.

01:34:02.000 But I guess we'll have to see.

01:34:03.000 Menendez's case is so much weirder to me.

01:34:06.000 And again, you want to wait as much as you can until there is conviction and trial.

01:34:12.000 Is this trial not over yet?

01:34:14.000 They delayed it.

01:34:15.000 Oh, wow.

01:34:17.000 No, I think he got convicted.

01:34:18.000 His wife's got delayed because she has cancer.

01:34:22.000 But sorry, I'm losing my timeline.

01:34:25.000 All these indictments.

01:34:26.000 The thing is, this guy was like gold bars in the closet and then also was like, I have all this cash because in immigrant communities, you want to be like, I think you are maybe lying. 0.90

01:34:36.000 Yeah.

01:34:37.000 Well, that's like Fonny Willis.

01:34:38.000 Do you guys remember that trial earlier this summer where she was talking about all these things that apparently black people do?

01:34:43.000 And I'm like, wait, I've never done that.

01:34:45.000 I'm a little confused.

01:34:46.000 You don't keep cash on you at all times?

01:34:47.000 No!

01:34:48.000 I've got a credit card.

01:34:49.000 And like, it's like she was talking about, um, what was she saying?

01:34:53.000 Oh, they accused her of liking a particular type of alcohol.

01:34:55.000 And she's like, no, baby, I like Grey Goose only.

01:34:58.000 And I was like, what?

01:34:59.000 These are the types of people.

01:35:00.000 And they brought her dad, the Black Panther, to the stand.

01:35:03.000 That was a good one.

01:35:04.000 Oh my God.

01:35:05.000 You can't make it up.

01:35:06.000 You can't make it up.

01:35:07.000 It's, it's, you know, American politics really is the greatest show on earth.

01:35:10.000 And sometimes I only apply this to the presidential elections, but we really have to look to the city level.

01:35:15.000 I mean, there are all kinds of personalities that make up local government.

01:35:18.000 Yeah.

01:35:19.000 No.

01:35:19.000 And I think it's interesting though, that we're seeing such an aggressive investigation and aggressive, aggressive indictment of Eric Adams when it took them how long to put Diddy behind, you know, bars.

01:35:29.000 He's not even convicted yet.

01:35:31.000 He's not convicted yet.

01:35:32.000 We talk about Diddy on the after show.

01:35:33.000 And celebrities are just like us.

01:35:35.000 He's just going to Costco to buy things.

01:35:38.000 He's now sharing a cell with SPF.

01:35:40.000 Is he really?

01:35:40.000 Yeah.

01:35:41.000 He's what?

01:35:41.000 That would be a wild podcast.

01:35:43.000 They're sharing the same cell.

01:35:45.000 Who?

01:35:46.000 Sam Beckman Freed.

01:35:47.000 What?

01:35:47.000 No.

01:35:48.000 What?

01:35:48.000 Yeah.

01:35:49.000 Imagine that podcast.

01:35:50.000 Is it a big cell?

01:35:51.000 I don't know.

01:35:51.000 Do they each have their own bedroom?

01:35:52.000 Of course not.

01:35:52.000 I think they're always small, famously in jail.

01:35:55.000 Yeah.

01:35:56.000 I care to never find out.

01:35:57.000 Why would they put- Well, he has ditties, so they gave him a luxury suite within a private bathroom.

01:36:01.000 That's what I'm wondering.

01:36:01.000 Yeah, right.

01:36:02.000 Well, hopefully for Sam, ditty doesn't have any baby oil in there. 0.98

01:36:05.000 That would be unfortunate.

01:36:06.000 He's like, I need to freak off right now.

01:36:08.000 I'm sure he'll get plenty of those.

01:36:10.000 It's like a high profile cell where like really famous people go.

01:36:13.000 Jeffrey Epstein was there.

01:36:14.000 Same cell?

01:36:16.000 Not the same cell, the same unit.

01:36:17.000 Where the cameras were shut off?

01:36:19.000 Yeah.

01:36:19.000 And the guards were asleep or whatever?

01:36:20.000 Wow.

01:36:23.000 So now Bankman Freed's there and Diddy's there.

01:36:26.000 Yeah.

01:36:27.000 Alright everybody, we're gonna go to Super Chats, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with each and every one of your friends, one by one go.

01:36:35.000 It's the best show, everyone agrees, at least that's what I was told.

01:36:39.000 Head over to TimCast.com, click join us or sign up to become a member.

01:36:44.000 We could use your support.

01:36:45.000 As many of you know, I am suing the Harris campaign because they have defamed me.

01:36:49.000 And we take this very seriously.

01:36:51.000 And so if you would like to support the work that we do in general, TimCast.com, you become a member, you'll get access to that uncensored show coming up at 10pm.

01:37:00.000 But there's not much more news in that regard.

01:37:05.000 The filing is through.

01:37:07.000 You can find it on Google, you can read the stories about it, you can read the whole filing that we submitted, and we may get an update very soon, but just for those that were wondering, that's where we're currently at.

01:37:17.000 I can't say much more, it's from my lawyer, but I did do an interview with the Daily Signal about this, and it's interesting if you guys want to Google that as well.

01:37:23.000 Alright, The Clayway says, number one, indeed sir, you're first.

01:37:27.000 He says, Tim, you're the best, I listen to...

01:37:30.000 To me, the best I listened to.

01:37:31.000 And many, many people say how great you are.

01:37:33.000 Some say you're even the greatest.

01:37:36.000 At least that's what I was told.

01:37:37.000 Who is that?

01:37:38.000 Clayway.

01:37:38.000 What's up to Clayway?

01:37:40.000 Clayway.

01:37:40.000 Nice one, dude.

01:37:41.000 Matthew Emmons says, did Tim get caught up in the Gell-Mann amnesia effect with the Marcellus Williams Missouri case?

01:37:47.000 The victim's purse was in his car and he sold her laptop.

01:37:50.000 No, sir, I would suggest that perhaps you are caught up in the Gell-Mann amnesia effect because it also was reported That there was a $10,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of the individual.

01:38:02.000 And the challenge is, there was a cellmate who claimed he bragged about the murder, and his ex-girlfriend said that he had the jacket and he had the things in his car, but they were financially incentivized to do it.

01:38:15.000 The question then becomes, if you believe this man is evil enough to murder someone, do you not also believe it's possible that someone else would be evil enough to lie about someone being a murderer for $10,000?

01:38:25.000 So if someone's evil enough to murder for a purse, would someone else be evil enough to murder for $10,000?

01:38:29.000 I'm not saying I know.

01:38:32.000 I'm just saying the family had come to an agreement to reduce the sentence to life with that possibility of parole, and the state said, no, we're going to execute.

01:38:42.000 That's what we do.

01:38:43.000 And so, I don't know.

01:38:45.000 I don't know.

01:38:46.000 I disagree with the execution, I suppose.

01:38:48.000 There are four other executions scheduled for this week in different states across America.

01:38:53.000 One involves, if you guys are interested in this and want to read up on cases and debate the death penalty to yourself, which I think is a really important exercise, you should look at Robert, his name is Robert Robertson's case.

01:39:05.000 He was convicted of murdering his daughter via shaken baby syndrome.

01:39:09.000 But people, there's controversy around it, so check it out.

01:39:11.000 He's getting the death penalty for that?

01:39:13.000 Wow.

01:39:15.000 Kind of wild.

01:39:15.000 I thought the death penalty was just for like if you're like tortured and it was like egregious murders.

01:39:19.000 I think if you murder your own child with shaken baby syndrome, people are pretty against it.

01:39:22.000 No, but right, but death penalty is for when you've committed a crime so serious that you're a threat to others, you cannot reasonably be imprisoned.

01:39:30.000 It's just an interesting case, right?

01:39:32.000 What state was that?

01:39:34.000 That one is, I think that one's Texas.

01:39:37.000 Like the Marcellus Williams, because I get, he had other felonies for burglaries, and he was convicted of stabbing a woman 43 times.

01:39:44.000 That's like a heinously, insanely brutal thing to do, where the argument legally is, we don't think this person will be safe to be around for anybody, so this warrants the death penalty.

01:39:55.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:39:56.000 That case is hard for me because I think you look at it as criminal history and that's

01:40:01.000 obviously trying to be arrested that many times for a range of seemingly violent offenses.

01:40:07.000 But the DNA is just, for it to be inconclusive, I did read an argument where they said,

01:40:12.000 It was wearing gloves.

01:40:13.000 We're applying 2024 DNA standards to old evidence.

01:40:18.000 And their argument was like the DNA that was on the piece of evidence belonged to one of

01:40:23.000 the crime scene technicians.

01:40:25.000 I think the prosecutor, because they handled it without gloves, presuming that the case was over, and Williams was accused of wearing gloves when he committed the murder anyway, which would make sense.

01:40:35.000 So there wouldn't have been his DNA on the weapon.

01:40:38.000 But, you know, I don't know.

01:40:40.000 The only thing I can say is, I have no comment on the actual merits of the case.

01:40:45.000 There's always some kind of doubt.

01:40:46.000 The question is, if the family said they wanted life without possibility of parole, then why not just be like, okay, you know, in the interest of justice, the families have decided this is what they want to do.

01:40:56.000 Many people responded with, victims have no say in what justice is.

01:41:01.000 And, well, you know, opinions are opinions.

01:41:04.000 All right, let's go.

01:41:06.000 Jay Redd says, everyone seems to have glossed over the Secret Service text saying, looks like someone followed our lead as crooks entered from the Secret Service parking lot.

01:41:14.000 Indeed.

01:41:16.000 Yeah.

01:41:17.000 Kind of weird.

01:41:18.000 Jason Dixon says, let's go, Tim!

01:41:20.000 Franchise the Castbrew. 0.98

01:41:21.000 I'll hire some former Hooters girls in Houston. 1.00

01:41:24.000 There's a plan.

01:41:25.000 There you go.

01:41:26.000 When people want to franchise, is there a good way for them to contact?

01:41:29.000 Because sometimes I'll get messages.

01:41:30.000 I cannot issue any comments on those words for legal reasons.

01:41:33.000 OK, good to know.

01:41:35.000 Yeah, you're not allowed to.

01:41:36.000 We're working on many things related to a national expansion.

01:41:40.000 You're not allowed to talk about... Why would you ask that question after I like... Okay.

01:41:45.000 What am I supposed to do?

01:41:46.000 We'll go later.

01:41:47.000 Tell me more about the thing you just didn't want to talk about.

01:41:49.000 Yes, please.

01:41:49.000 Let's go deeper into this hole.

01:41:51.000 Jason Dixon says, thank Ian for coming out and gaming with us.

01:41:54.000 Very blessed.

01:41:55.000 Ian has my respect.

01:41:56.000 Yeah, man, we went into the TimCast Discord and played Seven Days to Die.

01:41:59.000 It was awesome.

01:42:00.000 Unfortunately, the server was a little slow, so I think we're going to upgrade the server so that Horde Night's smooth, but man, it was so fun.

01:42:06.000 So you guys, get in the TimCast Discord, get in the gaming servers.

01:42:08.000 That's what it's all about.

01:42:10.000 You know what we need to do is we need a Magic the Gathering commander room in the Discord.

01:42:17.000 Yeah.

01:42:17.000 You were gaming on Gamer Maids earlier today, I saw, too.

01:42:20.000 Well, it's because they were playing Trials, and I am a Master.

01:42:24.000 So we're planning on doing a magic show.

01:42:26.000 Not the kind of magic show that maybe your grandmother would think it was, but like an actual Magic the Gathering show.

01:42:32.000 Tim and I have been knocking this idea around for, I don't know, five months or something.

01:42:34.000 Well, because we wanted to do Poker with the Boys.

01:42:36.000 There are some developments there.

01:42:39.000 I suppose I should announce this, too.

01:42:40.000 We are drafting a lawsuit against the state of Virginia.

01:42:43.000 This one I'm going to go ham on.

01:42:45.000 We're drafting a lawsuit against the state of Virginia for... I'll just break it down for you.

01:42:52.000 The West Virginia law says that card games are illegal.

01:42:56.000 Hosting a card game is illegal.

01:42:59.000 It doesn't actually say gambling, it says wagering money on a card game for which you can win prizes of cash value or cash equivalent is illegal.

01:43:10.000 Anyone who does these things is guilty of a misdemeanor.

01:43:13.000 We've got ourselves a problem.

01:43:14.000 So poker is heavily regulated.

01:43:16.000 If you want to play social poker, there's a difference between table game poker at a casino, like three-card poker, four-card poker, you know, what have you got, ultimate hold'em?

01:43:24.000 That's gambling.

01:43:24.000 Blackjack is gambling.

01:43:26.000 You've got a 50-50 shot and you're flipping a coin to hopefully get the cards to beat the house.

01:43:30.000 50-50.

01:43:30.000 It's not even 50-50.

01:43:31.000 It could be like 42% if you're playing three-card poker.

01:43:35.000 Don't play three-card poker.

01:43:37.000 So Texas Hold'em, you choose your odds.

01:43:39.000 You could throw away every hand and wait till you get aces and you got 83% chance to win.

01:43:43.000 That's your call.

01:43:44.000 And then you got to play it right.

01:43:45.000 It's a skill game.

01:43:46.000 So in order to play poker in the state of West Virginia, you got to go to one of five Uh, hotels.

01:43:53.000 In fact, one of them doesn't even have a poker room anymore, so there's like three or four places in West Virginia you can legally play poker.

01:43:58.000 There's a problem.

01:43:59.000 You can play Yu-Gi-Oh!

01:44:00.000 Magic and Pokemon at, like, a thousand different locations.

01:44:04.000 A child can walk into a shop where they will host a card game, as defined under the law as illegal, give $20 to the man, wagering money, to play a card game in the hopes to win cash prizes or cash equivalent prizes.

01:44:20.000 That is illegal under West Virginia law.

01:44:23.000 Now the argument is, collectible card games are exempt.

01:44:27.000 Which is not really an argument, that's just what the Lottery Commission told me.

01:44:30.000 And I said, why is a child allowed to wager money on a card game to win cash, but I as an adult can't play poker unless I'm in a regulated West Virginia State Lottery location?

01:44:43.000 And they said, collectible card games are exempt.

01:44:46.000 So, uh, we are going to sue, and they're either going to have to ban Pokemon, or they're going to have to legalize social poker.

01:44:54.000 So we are filing a lawsuit over this.

01:44:57.000 That'll be coming soon.

01:44:59.000 Well, I hope they don't ban Pokemon.

01:45:01.000 Maybe they should just open up poker a little bit.

01:45:03.000 Oh, I couldn't imagine what would happen to these people if they banned Pokemon cards.

01:45:07.000 Yeah, because, dude, local tournaments on a Friday night for $20 is like some of the heartbeat of that community.

01:45:13.000 You want to empower those people to play together.

01:45:15.000 And what's wrong with a couple of boys getting together for some beers and playing a $20 game of Hold'em?

01:45:19.000 a 10 cent, 20 cent game where they throw 20 bucks down.

01:45:22.000 So the issue I have is there is currently no law in the books that creates exemptions

01:45:26.000 for this.

01:45:27.000 Gambling is unconstitutional in the state.

01:45:29.000 The argument is that, oh, Pokemon's a skill game.

01:45:33.000 It's a card game under the law.

01:45:34.000 The law says card game.

01:45:35.000 It doesn't define what a card game is.

01:45:36.000 It's a game played with cards.

01:45:37.000 Pokemon is a game played with cards.

01:45:39.000 So they're going to have to change the law, and they're going to have to either ban Pokemon

01:45:42.000 or legalize social.

01:45:44.000 Yeah, because ultimately, I think about, like, Slay the Spire, turn-based strategy games may be in the guise of cards, they may be in the guise of papers that you draw, they may be in the guise of chips that you toss in the air and they land on the table, they might be in the guise of dice that you roll.

01:45:58.000 Like, turn-based strategy can exist in a lot of forms.

01:46:01.000 Cards might be one of those forms.

01:46:03.000 So calling it a card game is very vague.

01:46:05.000 It's this simple.

01:46:06.000 If you go to a casino and you sit down at a blackjack table, you can ask the dealer what you're supposed to do because the basic rules, the basic strategy is on a little card they could hand you and you can look at.

01:46:16.000 That's gambling.

01:46:18.000 If you sit down in the poker room at a casino, I guarantee you 100% you will lose all of your money.

01:46:24.000 And I see it happen all the time.

01:46:25.000 It is a skill game.

01:46:26.000 If you don't know what you're doing, if you don't know what the words mean, it's like, imagine if I said this.

01:46:31.000 Ian, we're gonna have a skateboard contest.

01:46:33.000 Hundred bucks to enter.

01:46:34.000 You win.

01:46:35.000 If I win, I get to keep all the money.

01:46:37.000 If you win, you get to keep all the money.

01:46:38.000 Would you enter that contest?

01:46:39.000 No.

01:46:39.000 Because you don't know how to skateboard.

01:46:40.000 Correct.

01:46:40.000 And that's the same thing with poker.

01:46:42.000 And same thing with Pokemon.

01:46:43.000 And same thing with Magic the Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh!

01:46:45.000 So why is social poker, and social poker is a specific category here, Why is that regulated under the Lottery Commission?

01:46:52.000 Does that factor into the game?

01:46:55.000 Like if we do a show at this point, so we've got to kind of organize with the legal system before we start doing our shows and stuff?

01:47:01.000 That's why we're suing.

01:47:02.000 So we want to do poker with the boys where Friday nights we play a game of poker, probably a couple hundred bucks per person to buy in to make it an actual low stakes game.

01:47:09.000 That's what low stakes is, between $100 and $400.

01:47:11.000 Not the crazy games you see with the millionaires or anything like that, but it's illegal in West Virginia.

01:47:16.000 And I said, why?

01:47:17.000 Why?

01:47:18.000 So if we play Magic the Gathering and I throw money down, that's fine?

01:47:20.000 And they're like, yep.

01:47:22.000 Well, in the meantime, we can do Friday nights with the boys and the girls, and we can play Magic in this room.

01:47:27.000 That was the idea.

01:47:28.000 Mount some cameras so you can see the table and the hands and all that.

01:47:31.000 Or you could play Pokemon.

01:47:32.000 Or we could.

01:47:32.000 Definitely not Pokemon.

01:47:33.000 Never played it before.

01:47:34.000 Dane's into it.

01:47:35.000 I think Dane understands the game very well.

01:47:36.000 But anyway, that's an update for you guys.

01:47:39.000 We are drafting that lawsuit against the state of West Virginia.

01:47:42.000 And we'll see what happens.

01:47:43.000 It will be, I think, very fun to litigate.

01:47:45.000 And, you know, I think it would be very weird and hilarious if West Virginia announces... Could you imagine what the conversation would be nationally if they're like, Pokemon cards are banned in West Virginia?

01:47:54.000 It's illegal child gambling.

01:47:56.000 You're gonna have eight-year-olds playing underground poker.

01:47:58.000 Underground Pokemon.

01:47:59.000 No, I think whoever's in office will get impeached and removed because every single 12-year-old will be screaming and the parents are going to be like, what just happened?

01:48:10.000 And they're going to be calling, being like, why are my kids freaking out?

01:48:13.000 How did you get kids mad?

01:48:15.000 And they're like, well, we made Pokemon illegal.

01:48:18.000 And they're going to be like, well, it's always been illegal.

01:48:20.000 Nah.

01:48:21.000 Because here's the problem right now.

01:48:22.000 I talked to the Lottery Commission and the AG about this.

01:48:25.000 If I make a game called Magical Wizard Quest...

01:48:29.000 Which is four elements and 13 of each element, and you have to combine the different cards to cast a spell, and every wizard has to put their mana in the middle, and the winner gets all the mana.

01:48:41.000 We're just describing poker, but if I use it in those terms, it's legal now.

01:48:44.000 No joke.

01:48:45.000 That's insane under the law.

01:48:47.000 That can't function properly.

01:48:49.000 If you play poker but call spades fire, diamonds water, clubs earth, and hearts wind, it's legal now.

01:48:58.000 And it's like, I have a golden fireball card, and I got pocket fireballs.

01:49:02.000 I won $400.

01:49:03.000 They're like, well, it's a collectible card game.

01:49:04.000 You're allowed to do it.

01:49:05.000 I'm like, OK, let's just legalize poker, guys. 0.98

01:49:07.000 This is ridiculous.

01:49:09.000 Maybe, and at the very least, legalize it. 0.97

01:49:11.000 OK, I don't want to die.

01:49:12.000 We can talk about this later.

01:49:13.000 We'll grab some more Super Chats here.

01:49:14.000 All right, H Badger says, further in the Timcast viewer tradition, I've been a longtime listener and currently in the hospital welcoming our second child to the world.

01:49:21.000 Keep up the great work!

01:49:22.000 Congratulations!

01:49:24.000 These are the best messages.

01:49:26.000 Way to contribute to the reversal of the collapsing birth rate.

01:49:29.000 I really appreciate it.

01:49:29.000 You have to go for one more, so we're over the 2.3.

01:49:31.000 Love it.

01:49:33.000 S.A.

01:49:33.000 Federale says, TimCast live daily shows and weekend shows are the new Tucker Cold Open.

01:49:38.000 Today went hard.

01:49:39.000 I wish I knew when I had more money to throw out subscriptions.

01:49:42.000 Straight up logos.

01:49:42.000 knew when I had more money to throw out subscriptions, straight up logos.

01:49:47.000 Appreciate it.

01:49:48.000 Well, I was mad this morning, Sean, I was talking about the Secret Service report, the

01:49:51.000 Senate report, that the Secret Service watched the law enforcement with guns running towards

01:49:56.000 I'm like, they stood down.

01:49:57.000 They literally stood down.

01:49:58.000 I was pissed.

01:49:59.000 You do Saturday and Sunday, too?

01:50:00.000 I did this past weekend.

01:50:02.000 We're coming up to the election, and I was like, probably makes sense, but, you know, I'd like to do the morning streams just because I enjoy doing them.

01:50:09.000 They're fun.

01:50:09.000 But I imagine sooner or later Allison's gonna like lurk in the shadows and show up with a rope and she's gonna drag me out.

01:50:18.000 She's gonna be like, no, you work too much. 1.00

01:50:20.000 Crazy Allison wanting to spend time with you. 0.99

01:50:22.000 I know.

01:50:23.000 It is good to get away from the machine to like just get your body healthy and get traction, social traction, and then come back to the machine with like fervor and vigor.

01:50:30.000 I already work too much.

01:50:32.000 But I don't know what else I'm supposed to do.

01:50:33.000 I mean, like, I do a morning show and a night show and... Just stare into your woman's eyes, man, and make babies. 1.00

01:50:38.000 That's what it's all about.

01:50:41.000 All right.

01:50:41.000 Ben D says, Tim, we are in a recession.

01:50:44.000 Pull up St.

01:50:45.000 Louis Fed 27-week unemployment.

01:50:48.000 Every time that has ever increased, we have been in a recession.

01:50:51.000 They're just lying because they know they're gonna lose an election, so they're lying.

01:50:56.000 Nick James says, I've been a consistent IRL watcher since early 2022.

01:51:00.000 For the past 8 months, I haven't gotten a single IRL notification.

01:51:02.000 Suddenly, YouTube decided to let me have them again.

01:51:05.000 And I've gotten a live notification every day this week.

01:51:07.000 Alright!

01:51:08.000 That's good.

01:51:10.000 I suppose.

01:51:11.000 So, um...

01:51:13.000 Share the show, everybody, right now.

01:51:15.000 If you like the show, take the URL and share it.

01:51:18.000 Maybe there's an easy way we can do this, because I mentioned this.

01:51:22.000 If every single person who watched at one moment tweeted out the show, it would create a worldwide trend.

01:51:29.000 I'm not kidding.

01:51:30.000 If you look at the worldwide trends, you'll see sometimes it's like 10,000 or 20,000.

01:51:32.000 Sometimes it's not that many.

01:51:34.000 If 50,000 people tweeted Teamcast and I are out the exact same time. It would be the

01:51:39.000 number one worldwide trend.

01:51:40.000 On Twitter, I think a post on Twitter with a link in it, an external link,

01:51:45.000 it's downregulated in the algorithm. So if there's a way to tweet it out without the link,

01:51:49.000 and then the first comment in the thread is the link to the show, you'll get way more traction.

01:51:53.000 When we tried multistreaming, the problem with multistreaming was that

01:51:57.000 it created a desynchronized the start of the show. And so what happened is we're like,

01:52:04.000 we have this debate coming up. We're going to do the multistream for it because we don't want to

01:52:08.000 get taken down. And it worked really, really well. Rumble kept crashing, no disrespect. We love

01:52:11.000 Rumble. And they worked on it. They fixed it. The problem was the next time we tried going

01:52:15.000 multistream, you YouTube was ready to go, we hit our call time, and X and Rumble hadn't ingested the stream at the same amount of time, so YouTube was faster.

01:52:26.000 Then Rumble lit up, then X lit up, and so we have to wait till they're all live to hit the Go Live button, because it's one button.

01:52:32.000 One button activates all of them, but they have to ingest the stream first.

01:52:38.000 I use Streamlabs, and I go live on YouTube, Twitter... But do you wait in the beginning?

01:52:44.000 Twitch is a good platform for this show too.

01:52:46.000 We'll get banned in two seconds, dude. 0.70

01:52:47.000 Maybe, maybe not though.

01:52:49.000 It's Amazon, I mean, they're pretty cool.

01:52:51.000 It's a gamification.

01:52:52.000 Might as well.

01:52:53.000 Jeff Bezos is a pretty cool guy.

01:52:54.000 Did you have to wait in the open?

01:52:55.000 Because what happened to us is.

01:52:57.000 No, I just go live and it sends to all platforms, rumbles another one.

01:53:00.000 Why don't you go watch the streams and see where it cut you off?

01:53:02.000 It might be desynced though, I don't know.

01:53:03.000 They're going to be, what's going to happen is.

01:53:05.000 Usually wait before I say talk.

01:53:06.000 You're going to open X and it's going to start 10 seconds into the show

01:53:09.000 and you're going to be going, but that's what I told him not to do.

01:53:11.000 Anyway, onto the show and it's going to be like, wait, wait, what was he saying?

01:53:13.000 Because it's going to cut the beginning off.

01:53:15.000 We can't do that.

01:53:16.000 We have a cold open.

01:53:18.000 So.

01:53:19.000 What about the... It says TimCast, you know, and here's the promo, and then we have to wait till they're all loaded so we know we can press go.

01:53:24.000 When do we go?

01:53:25.000 Isn't there the TimCast IRL, like, lead-in monitor screen for, like, 20 seconds, and then we start talking?

01:53:31.000 So we have a delay, then there's, like, five seconds beyond that, and the problem is, if it's not ingesting the stream, we cannot press live.

01:53:40.000 We gotta get a theme song that plays in the beginning.

01:53:42.000 Even that would be fine.

01:53:44.000 No, no, no, no.

01:53:45.000 Like a sitcom intro... We used to wait 30 seconds and everyone complained about it.

01:53:49.000 Because they were like, just go live.

01:53:51.000 And then the problem is, when the show ends, people want to watch the show later, and there's a minute or two of dead air.

01:53:57.000 And people were like, I want the show to just start.

01:54:00.000 And so we're like, we'll try to make it start as fast as we can.

01:54:02.000 So there's about 10 to 15 seconds of dead air.

01:54:05.000 Maybe a little bit more, I don't know.

01:54:07.000 But that's the challenge, man.

01:54:08.000 That's a challenge.

01:54:09.000 Although I would like to multistream, it would be would be fun.

01:54:13.000 But yeah, you can funnel the chats into one mega chat too.

01:54:17.000 Yeah.

01:54:18.000 Well, let's read some more.

01:54:20.000 All right.

01:54:21.000 2300gearjammer says it should be renamed the Department of Offense and all high-ranking officials should be required to announce themselves by saying, I'm a huge piece of do.

01:54:28.000 Aha! 0.94

01:54:31.000 Indeed.

01:54:33.000 All right.

01:54:33.000 Trying to Learn says, bombing at California courthouse just reported.

01:54:36.000 Is this political or a local nut job?

01:54:38.000 I saw that earlier.

01:54:38.000 I'm not sure.

01:54:40.000 They haven't.

01:54:40.000 They took a man into custody for it.

01:54:42.000 If you go to SCNR.com, I covered it today.

01:54:45.000 They took a man into custody.

01:54:47.000 At least five people were injured last I saw.

01:54:49.000 And it was what appeared to be an explosive device that went off that presumably he created.

01:54:54.000 But they haven't said who he was or who he is and what the motivation was.

01:54:59.000 But yeah.

01:54:59.000 Santa Maria County Superior Courthouse.

01:55:02.000 Outdoors with Morgan says, love you Ian, but Tim's right.

01:55:05.000 I was there on 7-13 and I will be there on 10-5.

01:55:08.000 Trump raising his fist showed leadership, massive balls, and it let us know that he was okay and we will be okay.

01:55:14.000 Yeah, but imagine, just for a second, what if he'd got hit after he got back up? 0.93

01:55:18.000 How horrible that would have been.

01:55:20.000 So I agree it did, in retrospect, give us hope that he survived in the face, but like, it's not a good replicatable thing for a president to do if he gets shot out on stage from an unknown assailant.

01:55:31.000 You want him to stay down.

01:55:32.000 He needed to stand up.

01:55:33.000 I don't know about that.

01:55:34.000 He had just gotten hit and dropped to the ground and people were saying online, did he die?

01:55:40.000 Trump stood up so that everybody could see instantly in the video he is okay.

01:55:45.000 And it's been the defining moment of the campaign.

01:55:48.000 Like that picture will probably be the most iconic image of my lifetime.

01:55:52.000 It's insane.

01:55:53.000 I'll tell you this, maybe Trump could have dropped down and then just feigned injury so they carried him out because then the news would have been insane.

01:56:01.000 Maybe, you know, I was talking about this.

01:56:04.000 We were going to the RNC.

01:56:05.000 We had just arrived.

01:56:06.000 It's Saturday.

01:56:07.000 And so we have no equipment.

01:56:08.000 We arrived before the crew and everything is set up.

01:56:12.000 And so we go to our hotel, we get lunch, and then I'm like, let's go to hang out at Potawatomi.

01:56:17.000 You know, Bingo Casino over in Milwaukee.

01:56:19.000 And I'm playing poker.

01:56:20.000 There's this state rep from Missouri who was there.

01:56:22.000 It was really cool.

01:56:24.000 And no one knew anything.

01:56:26.000 At one moment, I look up at him, he looks at me, and I was like, did you just hear what happened? 0.59

01:56:30.000 He's like, yeah, I just turned around and I'm like, holy crap, dude. 0.76

01:56:32.000 And we're looking at all the TVs are just sports and other garbled nonsense. 0.93

01:56:36.000 Nobody knew.

01:56:37.000 Nobody cared.

01:56:37.000 Nobody knew.

01:56:38.000 Went around.

01:56:39.000 But.

01:56:41.000 I wonder, if Donald Trump stayed down and Secret Service lifted him up and actually carried him out, and people thought that he might have lost his life, every television station in the country would have switched to breaking news, because they would have feared that he actually died.

01:56:57.000 The problem would have been, I think, after that, when people realized the injury was just, like, to his ear, the media would have made that such a- Exactly. 0.95

01:57:03.000 Such a coward. 0.79

01:57:04.000 They would have said, what a weak- he got grazed in the ear and he collapses and faints, are you kidding me? 0.98

01:57:09.000 I mean, do you remember the debate over at the RNC where they were like, does his bandage have to be that big?

01:57:14.000 They don't think any reason to think Trump is being dramatic.

01:57:18.000 Trump could have just laid low for a few weeks and said that the injury ended up being superficial and, you know, or something.

01:57:26.000 Well, let's grab a couple more Super Chats.

01:57:28.000 Kyle Pickett says, Ian, please use your weather powers to help pray for the Floridians and others that are about to face the wrath of Mother Nature.

01:57:35.000 I'm one, and I'm staying on the coast in the Florida Panhandle.

01:57:39.000 Who is that?

01:57:40.000 Kyle Pickett.

01:57:41.000 Kyle, you have the power to manipulate the weather as well.

01:57:44.000 That's the point.

01:57:45.000 All of our magnetic fields can interfere.

01:57:47.000 The Native Americans had the rain dances they could do, but I can't do it for you. 1.00

01:57:51.000 You have to do it for you.

01:57:52.000 Okay, Ian, we've got five days of rain here.

01:57:56.000 Why don't you make it stop?

01:57:56.000 Because I like the rain.

01:57:58.000 I know.

01:57:58.000 I want it to stop.

01:57:59.000 Everybody here needs the rain to stop.

01:58:00.000 It's getting really bad and it's damaging to the local flora and fauna.

01:58:04.000 Yeah?

01:58:05.000 There's too much rain.

01:58:06.000 So how about you make the rain stop?

01:58:07.000 I mean, I could try.

01:58:08.000 I was thinking that on the ride over.

01:58:09.000 It was kind of gloomy.

01:58:10.000 If tomorrow I check the weather report again and the rain forecast is gone, I will believe you.

01:58:16.000 Well, I'm being honest.

01:58:18.000 I can't actually do it.

01:58:19.000 I don't want to do it right now.

01:58:21.000 Why wouldn't you?

01:58:22.000 You spend a lot of time in Florida.

01:58:23.000 Why wouldn't you go to Florida and try and stop the hurricane?

01:58:25.000 Because the people in Florida can do it.

01:58:27.000 But you're saying you can control the weather, so why don't you go down there and do it now?

01:58:29.000 Everyone can control the weather.

01:58:31.000 Yeah, but you have the specific power.

01:58:32.000 You've told me this.

01:58:33.000 I just figured out how to do it.

01:58:34.000 Everyone has the power.

01:58:34.000 You don't want to help people of Florida.

01:58:35.000 Let's grab some more superchats.

01:58:36.000 I'm not going to Florida next week.

01:58:38.000 All right, all right, guys.

01:58:39.000 We got Bardo, who says, I fooled myself into believing that I needed to create a parallel economy account to become a member.

01:58:44.000 The lawsuit has inspired me to try to find a way to become a member, only to find out I could have just been a member this whole time.

01:58:50.000 So let me tell you about the things we do here at TimCast.

01:58:53.000 When you go to TimCast.com and click Join Us, to sign up, we have two options.

01:58:58.000 PayPal is no longer an option.

01:58:59.000 Parallel economy is our principal financial mechanism for your transactions.

01:59:03.000 Parallel economy, of course, is associated with Rumble and Dan Bongino.

01:59:08.000 It is an alternate financial transaction system so we can get away from the cancel culture machine and build up our own resilient institutions.

01:59:14.000 So, there are fees in all these transactions.

01:59:17.000 Here's the best part.

01:59:19.000 When you become a member, not only Are you helping support our work?

01:59:23.000 But we actually pay for that service, which means portions of the money that you pay actually help Dan Bongino and Rumble's financial services company, which is helping build the parallel economy.

01:59:34.000 You're basically buying more than just Timcast.

01:59:36.000 You're actually buying the financial services.

01:59:38.000 So we try to make sure that everything we're using, we're on a Rumble cloud.

01:59:43.000 We're trying to make sure that we're supporting the infrastructure and the ecosystem outside of the cancel culture institutions to the best of our abilities.

01:59:49.000 So consider becoming a member at TimCast.com for the general support across the board.

01:59:54.000 And we're also suing Kamala Harris.

01:59:55.000 So, you know, that's fun too.

01:59:57.000 What's the flow to become a member?

01:59:59.000 You go to the website, is there a... You go to the website, the top right says sign up.

02:00:01.000 You click it.

02:00:02.000 Then you can choose.

02:00:03.000 Ten bucks is the membership, but you can always choose more because we have like the $25, the silver membership where you get a special VIP room and If you sign up for $25, you can instantly submit questions to join the members-only show.

02:00:16.000 Whereas at $10, there's a six-month wait period.

02:00:19.000 We have to do that because we had weirdos causing problems.

02:00:22.000 And so there's gotta be some kind of gate, either time or money.

02:00:25.000 And we decided to do both because I felt like some people are like, I ain't waiting six months, I'm not gonna join. 0.92

02:00:30.000 Some people are like, $25, you're crazy.

02:00:32.000 I'm like, both.

02:00:33.000 You can sign up, hang out, wait, six months later, you're in.

02:00:35.000 But the weirdos try coming in, disrupting, stealing videos, just all these other problems.

02:00:41.000 You can sign up for a hundred bucks.

02:00:42.000 That's the elite members club.

02:00:43.000 The purpose of that, admittedly, is more privy to access to the inner workings.

02:00:48.000 Um, you know, people come and hang out sometimes, but it was mostly because we want to set up a physical hangout space in Martinsburg.

02:00:55.000 And the hundred bucks a month is like, it's a private club.

02:00:57.000 You come in, you scan, you get, you get a key fob and you go beep and you walk in and then you're hanging out with the boys sharing ideas and you have this private space to hang out in.

02:01:04.000 So we do have the elite club, but we're still trying to get this building set up.

02:01:08.000 We thought it was going to be done in June and it's taken forever.

02:01:11.000 So, that's the plan there, but you can sign up for whatever you want.

02:01:14.000 TimCast.com, you click sign up, ten bucks a month, and then there's a thing to explain how to join the Discord server and get involved in all that stuff, which we're going to go do now, so smash that like button, subscribe, share the show, everybody just share it all the time, just take the URL, post it everywhere, it really, really does help.
